[12:01] <lousygarua> cr0_ php.conf that is
[12:01] <flowmaster> what is your video card brand
[12:01] <PyroSama> lousygarua: does it support ip filter lists and udp?
[12:01] <lousygarua> pyrosama i have no idea actually i just needed a gtk client nad it worked for me.. it's only version 0.6 so they might be missing some features
[12:01] <tristanmike> If I may, what are some good ID3 tag editors in Linux...I asked ubotu, but he doesn't seem to get me :P
[12:02] <Flannel> cr0_: It's offering the PHP file for download?
[12:02] <cr0_> i think i got it working now
[12:02] <lousygarua> cr0_ what did u do?
[12:02] <PyroSama> cr0_: make sure you have your apache server configured with the proper mime types for php
[12:03] <[Al] chemist_ex> I am on the live cd and really need ntfs write support. I installed ntfs-3g, is there something else I need to do?  I still cant write to my disk.
[12:03] <lousygarua> pyrosama apache installer does that automaticaly so it's weird he says it won't work
[12:03] <PyroSama> lousygarua: hmm
[12:03] <PyroSama> cr0_: try lamp
[12:03] <omegacenti> !lamp
[12:03] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[12:04] <PyroSama> cr0_: LoadModule php4_module php/sapi/php4apache2.dll
[12:04] <PyroSama>         AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
[12:04] <PyroSama>         AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
[12:04] <PyroSama> Make sure that or something close is in your apache config
[12:04] <Chago> bittorrent is already the newest version...but...where is it?
[12:04] <omegacenti> !baby
[12:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about baby - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:04] <ramatieg> Anybody know how to exclude relative directories in rdiff-backup (I think it is the same as rsync or duplicity). I get | Warning: file specification 'excludedir/' in filelist exclude.txt doesn't start with correct prefix .. Ignoring |
[12:04] <PyroSama> cr0_: under your apache folder ook for httpd.conf
[12:04] <PyroSama> !god
[12:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about god - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:04] <Mirrakor> is there a comparison  between edubuntu and a normal (K/X)ubuntu?
[12:05] <omegacenti> !baby-jesus
[12:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about baby-jesus - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:05] <omegacenti> Sorry had to...
[12:05] <Flannel> [Al] chemist_ex: you need to install ntfs-config
[12:05] <PyroSama> Mirrakor: just packages bundled with it
[12:05] <[Al] chemist_ex> Fannel, oh duh then let me guess I run ntfs-config right?
[12:05] <PyroSama> Mirrakor: one is general use and the other education related apps
[12:05] <idefixx> ramatieg: just a guess... but i'd say it cant be a relative path it must be absolute.
[12:05] <Mirrakor> PyroSama: so in fact it's just an Ubuntu with additional packages?
[12:06] <flowmaster> should i go with vmplayer or VirtulBox ?????
[12:06] <lousygarua> cr0_, pyrosama ubutnu installer does all of t hat automatiicaly
[12:06] <Flannel> [Al] chemist_ex: There'll be a menu item Applications > system tools > NTFS Configuration Tool (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions)
[12:06] <PyroSama> Mirrakor: from what I understand yes its just diff packages
[12:06] <lousygarua> Chago - bittorrent is only the protocol, u can choose from a lot of differnet clients that 'talk' to this protocol
[12:07] <Mirrakor> PyroSama:  I thought so too, but what do you recommend for school use(as student) an ubuntu and install packages manually or would you recommend using Edubuntu directly?
[12:07] <Flannel> Mirrakor: Edubuntu is geared more towards the client/server thing, although there are standalone versions.  If you're looking for a desktop system with edubuntu look/programs/etc you're probably better off installing Ubuntu, and then adding the Edubuntu theme and apps.
[12:07] <Chago> which one?
[12:07] <r00tintheb0x> hi guys
[12:07] <ariane> i would like to install some 3d desktop on my ubuntu feisty. i tried before but it crashed my computer, i panicked and i deleted all the files related to it. now is there someone that could explain me how do i get that 3d desktop without killing my computer please?
[12:07] <PyroSama> Mirrakor: I actually dont know too much about ubuntu but since my office is transitioning to it I had to preempt every one so when the trouble shooting starts I know what I'm doing so any thing I say needs to be taken with a grain of salt
[12:07] <r00tintheb0x> :)
[12:07] <sebas_> Chago, just open a .torrent file
[12:07] <Mirrakor> Flannel: you know something about it?
[12:07] <lousygarua> Chago, yeah ubuntu has a very basic built in bittorrent client
[12:08] <lousygarua> Chago u have to look on google for example for bittorrent stuff
[12:08] <PyroSama> ariane: 3d desktop is buggy at best its still beta if your hardware didnt support it look around for how to make it work and if you cant find anything discussing your hardware then give it a while and wait for the next beta
[12:08] <bruenig> Chago, I recommend utorrent
[12:08] <lousygarua> Chago then u download a bittorrent file (small file) adn ur client does all the downloading for u
[12:08] <lousygarua> bruenig did u hear of deluge-torrent?
[12:08] <bruenig> lousygarua, no rss
[12:08] <flowmaster> bittorrent is awsome
[12:09] <tristanmike> If I may, what are some good ID3 tag editors in Linux...I asked ubotu, but he doesn't seem to get me :P
[12:09] <PyroSama> lousygarua: Do you know how to join two files end to end? aka output = input1.input2.input3
[12:09] <lousygarua> bruenig i'm sure it will have, it's only a matter of time :) i also use utorrent from time to time but i prefer deluge now coz i don't use rss
[12:09] <lousygarua> pyrosama on php? or unix
[12:09] <todd_> i just installed ubuntu, pretty new to linux... My computer seems to lock up for about a second at random intervals. What could be causing this?
[12:09] <PyroSama> tristanmike: i think bmpx will let you change id3 tags
[12:09] <bruenig> lousygarua, it keeps getting put off, now it is projected some crazy long time in the future
[12:09] <ariane> PyroSama: i successed to install beryl a long time ago (i was with kubuntu 6.10) and it was buggy but it was working. i heard compiz is more stable. is that really true?
[12:09] <Mirrakor> tristanmike: as player Amarok, as stand alone tagger I'd use easytag
[12:10] <tristanmike> Thanx a bunch load PyroSama and Mirrakor, much appreciated :D
[12:10] <OuZo> what is the keyboard short cut for switching tabs in the terminal?
[12:10] <flowmaster> i heard the same about compiz
[12:10] <PyroSama> ctrl+tab?
[12:10] <lousygarua> bruenig well there are other features that are unimplemented there and i guess rss isn't on their minds now
[12:10] <idefixx> lousygarua: deluge-torrent will be the next major client (i hope) but for now it still doesnt beet utorrent imo.
[12:10] <flowmaster> i cant get beryl to on nivida2go 64mb video card
[12:10] <PyroSama> ariane: I dont know.
[12:10] <bluebanana> i downloaded armyops250linux.run from http://americasarmy.filefront.com/file/AASF_Direct_Action_v25_Linux_Full_Install;49654. How do i play the game?
[12:11] <ramatieg> flowmaster: #ubuntu-effects
[12:11] <lousygarua> idefixx u r right, utorrent rocks now but deluge meets my needs
[12:11] <PyroSama> bluebanana: is it a .deb package or a .tar.gz?
[12:11] <Mirrakor> bluebanana: execute the .run (chmod +x first), and look what it says
[12:11] <Chago> is it a good option bittorrent_5.0.5_python2.4.deb?
[12:11] <Mirrakor> PyroSama: a binary file
[12:11] <PyroSama> Mirrakor: ah ok
[12:11] <PyroSama> bluebanana: ignore my comment
[12:12] <flowmaster> easynews it the best for download movie, music and warez!!
[12:12] <ubunt1> HEY
[12:12] <[Al] chemist_ex> Flannel: Thank you, it seems to be working :)
[12:12] <Chago> is it a good option bittorrent_5.0.5_python2.4.deb?
[12:12] <smus> i just installed ubuntu 7.0.4, i have geforce 8600, i can only use 1024x768 @ 60 hz, i want use 1280x1024 @ 85 hz, how?
[12:12] <smus> in System -> Screen Resolution
[12:12] <Chago> is it a good option bittorrent_5.0.7_python2.4.deb?
[12:12] <PyroSama> hmm still looking for any ideas on joining files end to end
[12:12] <lousygarua> chago most chances u already got a bittorrent client already on ubuntu
[12:12] <idefixx> lousygarua: its allways a good idea to get away from utorrent.. because of all the stuff going on ;)
[12:12] <Flannel> Chago: Install bittorrent from the repositories.  There's no reason to manually download debs.
[12:12] <mogreen> Chago: apt-get install rtorrent
[12:13] <PyroSama> Chago: apt-get install azures or apt-get install qbittorent
[12:13] <Chago> just only that?
[12:13] <bluebanana> Mirrakor, i did chmod +x, now how do i execute it?
[12:13] <bdf> so I'm having this odd issue with apache2 and the event mpm... it doesn't seem to want to start
[12:13] <lousygarua> ok bye all have fun
[12:13] <bdf> returns an odd error in error.og
[12:13] <bdf> log*
[12:13] <bdf> [Sat Jun 09 08:09:36 2007]  [crit]  (70023)This function has not been implemented on this platform: Couldn't create a Thread Safe Pollset. Is it supported on your platform?
[12:13] <bdf> Pre-configuration failed
[12:13] <PyroSama> Chago: azures is java based and bloated but feature packed, qbittorrent is light weight but limited feature wise
[12:13] <flowmaster> you have hack your xorg.conf file to 1280X1024
[12:13] <Mirrakor> bluebanana: you're in a shell, I assume - now just type ./filename.run (tab will probably a help for you :) )
[12:13] <bdf> worker mpm works fine
[12:13] <ramatieg> PyroSama: It's azureus
[12:13] <ticnailer69> Why would I need to use the NTFS write support configuration tool?
[12:13] <bdf> but there are nice performance benefits to the event mpm :(
[12:14] <PyroSama> ramatieg: I cant spell ;)
[12:14] <smus> flowmaster, okay, why cant i do it from System -> SCreen Resolution?
[12:14] <sebas_> !life
[12:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about life - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:14] <Flannel> ticnailer69: Uh, you only need to if you plan on writing to NTFS.
[12:14] <idefixx> sebas_: hehe, pls dont abuse the bot.
[12:14] <smus> how do i sudo in this dumb unbut
[12:14] <smus> it hasno root
[12:14] <smus> is so confusing
[12:15] <PyroSama> sudo -s
[12:15] <ctothej> how do i find the location of the python interpreter?
[12:15] <smus> thanks
[12:15] <Chago> mogreen: apparently is downloading rtorrent
[12:15] <bluebanana> Mirrakor,  bash: armyops250linux.run: command not found
[12:15] <Flannel> smus: You don't need root.  Just `sudo [command] ` to perfrm that command as super user.
[12:15] <mogreen> :D
[12:15] <bluebanana> the tab function won't even work.
[12:15] <Flannel> PyroSama: `sudo -i` is the recommended root shell, not -s anymore.
[12:15] <smus> annoying, aff
[12:15] <PyroSama> Flannel: what is the difference between the two?
[12:16] <ariane> i'll try to install correctly the appropriate drivers for my graphic card and if i have some problems, i'll come back...
[12:16] <ticnailer69> I'm not familar with writing to NTFS so why would I want to do this, if you dont mind me asking..
[12:16] <Flannel> PyroSama: some of the environment settings
[12:16] <Mirrakor> bluebanana: uhm, I did say you should type ./filename, so in your case ./armyops250linux.run
[12:16] <smus> where is my x config file?
[12:16] <Chago> I don't see any client on my desktop
[12:16] <PyroSama> Flannel: ok
[12:16] <the_walrus> smus: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:16] <smus> ok
[12:16] <Flannel> ticnailer69: If you needed/wanted to write to a windows partition.  Otherwise, there's no reason.
[12:16] <PyroSama> etc/X11/xorg.conf i belive
[12:17] <PyroSama> I got beat to it.
[12:17] <ticnailer69> nah haha. thanks
[12:17] <Chago> mogreen: apparently is downloading rtorrent...but I don't see any client
[12:17] <symbiote> hey anyone know how to uninstall wine.. I installed it while the system was updating lol.. think it messed shit up.. sometimes ubuntu hangs now.. that aint normal.. and wine doesnt show up in my applications menu or any otehr menu.. and i dont knwo where it is to start it eather lol..
[12:17] <PyroSama> Chago: is installing or is installed?
[12:17] <mogreen> Chago:  u use consoll
[12:17] <PyroSama> symbiote: apt-get
[12:18] <greyfrog> symbiote, sudo apt-get remove wine?
[12:18] <symbiote> would taht really work lol?
[12:18] <smus> im disappointd, i cant put my screen res in the app in System -> Screen res to 1280x1024
[12:18] <greyfrog> symbiote, it should
[12:18] <Flannel> symbiote: you shouldn't have been able to install it while the system was updating.  It should have blocked you, unless you did something funky.
[12:18] <grrr79> hi
[12:18] <idefixx> symbiote: you dont 'just' start it.. you'll have to supply a windows app as argument. also i dont think its running 'ps xa | grep wine' to check.
[12:18] <Emanon> hello
[12:19] <Fawaz> which package to install glibc?
[12:19] <greyfrog> !find glibc | Fawaz
[12:19] <ubotu> fawaz: Found: glibc-doc, libc6, libc6-pic, libg++2.8.1.3-glibc2.2, libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2
[12:19] <crimsun> libc6* are already installed...
[12:19] <Flannel> Fawaz: you probably want build-essential, which installs the whole lot of things you'll need
[12:19] <we2by> can some one tells me a simple gtk mp3 player?
[12:19] <idefixx> symbiote: also, yes apt-get remove really works... why wouldnt it?
[12:19] <symbiote> oh... well i mean yeah it woudlnt install but i kept teh synatic installer open for it whiel waiting for the updates to be done.. then isntalled it as soon as they were done.. I think I was suppostt o restart first lol..

[12:20] <PyroSama> cp84: file browser?
[12:20] <greyfrog> !ipod | cp84
[12:20] <Flannel> symbiote: well, synaptic and update-manager shouldn't have been able to be running at the same time even.

[12:20] <greyfrog> symbiote, close out of synaptic
[12:20] <Flannel> symbiote: Right.  Close the other package managers you have open (update manager, or synaptic, or whatever)
[12:21] <tarzeau> we2by: besides xmms IS gtk (just not version 2 of it)
[12:21] <PyroSama> symbiote: are you running synaptic package manager or similar at the same time?
[12:21] <symbiote> synatic isnt open
[12:21] <Fawaz> i'm compiling something but i get configure: error: Missing zlib

[12:22] <Flannel> symbiote: If you're absolutely certain of that, then go ahead and manually remove /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[12:22] <PyroSama> symbiote: reboot then before any thing try apt-get remove
[12:22] <Shendar> How can i install kernel with lowlatency on edgy?
[12:22] <Fawaz> emanon: thanx a lot
[12:22] <greyfrog> XiCillin, right click your menu bar and click properties
[12:22] <Emanon> Fawaz: try it now to make sure it works
[12:22] <symbiote> i just rebooted like 10 minutes ago
[12:22] <XiCillin> menu bar>? you mean panel, greyfox?
[12:23] <Fawaz> emanon: i'll try to recompile now :) thanx
[12:23] <greyfrog> XiCillin, yep
[12:23] <PyroSama> any one know if ubuntu can boot from a yaffs partition or a jffs partition? If so how do I create said partition?
[12:23] <XiCillin> i dont' want to make the panel transparent

[12:24] <Fawaz> emanon: i get configure: error: Missing openssl    but i think i have it installed
[12:24] <smus> i type "sudo ls", nothing happens, why?
[12:24] <PyroSama> smus ls doesnt need to be prefaced with sudo
[12:25] <Flannel> smus: because the directory youre in is empty
[12:25] <smus> pyrosama, i know, but as a test
[12:25] <smus> Flannel: , its not, when i type "ls" it works
[12:25] <Lightenix> hi,  is it possible that return code obtainable by $?  is only within range from 0 to 255?  and what happens if that exit code is too high (like 40000) ?
[12:25] <smus> "sudo uname" doesnt work either
[12:25] <smus> nothing with sudo works
[12:25] <Emanon> Fawaz: try apt-get install libssl-dev
[12:25] <symbiote> lol ok thats anotehr thing Ive been wondering.. how do u delete stuff if its locked.. why cant i log on as root like I could in fedora(btw fedora sux compaired to ubuntu hehe)
[12:25] <Fawaz> emanon: i think  i fixed it installed libssl-dev it fixed it :)
[12:25] <Shendar> How can i install kernel with lowlatency on edgy?
[12:26] <Fawaz> emanon: yeah was just telling :)
[12:26] <smus> wow, this ubuntu sucks
[12:26] <Emanon> Fawaz: right :)
[12:26] <smus> i think im gonna install windows
[12:26] <PyroSama> smus: you broke ubuntu. evil msoft spy. i condem you to the trash bin!
[12:26] <idefixx> PyroSama: ubuntu is compiled with jfs as module.. to create it install jfsutils.
[12:26] <PyroSama> smus try a reboot
[12:26] <symbiote> hey dont go bad mouthin ubuntu.. im happy with it..
[12:26] <smus> you cant even change a screen resolution without edit config files, and you cant edit config files
[12:26] <edmon> heeyy can some one help me with my grafikcard? ATI radeon 9800 i can't install the driver
[12:26] <smus> hmm okay
[12:26] <smus> ill try restart
[12:26] <PyroSama> idefixx: jffs (journaling flash file system)
[12:26] <Emanon> So, not takers for testing this app: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=469049
[12:27] <Flannel> symbiote: because Ubuntu doesn't use the root account, it uses sudo instead.  You'll need to use sudo to delete things.  Either sudo rm from a terminal, or `gksu nautilus` to open nautilus (your file browser) with super user privs.  Be EXTREMELY careful with that nautilus window, and close it immediately after you're finished.
[12:27] <we2by> hi
[12:27] <idefixx> PyroSama: oops misread that, sry.
[12:27] <edmon> heeyy can some one help me with my grafikcard? ATI radeon 9800 i can't install the driver
[12:27] <Emanon> symbiote: try 'sudo -s'
[12:27] <dayylin> so because you are unsure of how to make it work it sucks?  check out the forums and you will get a lot of info on how ubuntu works
[12:27] <we2by> is there a tool to change the wallpaper every 5 seconds randomly? like in OSX?
[12:28] <PyroSama> idefixx: np. I got my self a fancy new lexar 8gig express card ssd and just dont want to burn it out from log files or web surfing
[12:28] <n2diy> we2by: qsl?
[12:28] <we2by> n2diy, what does qsl mean?
[12:28] <edmon> heeyy can some one help me with my grafikcard? ATI radeon 9800 i can't install the driver
[12:28] <PyroSama> Emanon: i was told a a few minutes ago that sudo -l is now the standard.
[12:29] <n2diy> we2by: never mind, I thought your nick was a ham call sign. :)
[12:29] <bdf> n2diy: wk9kkn ;)
[12:29] <bdf> err
[12:29] <PyroSama> !ati
[12:29] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:29] <bdf> w9kkn*
[12:29] <Flannel> PyroSama: `sudo -i` not -l, but really there's few reasons to open a root shell anyway.
[12:29] <n2diy> bdf: hi om.
[12:29] <symbiote> ok I know what i must do now.. sudo rm lock woo
[12:29] <Emanon> symbiote: once you become root using 'sudo -s', you can set a password if you really want to and then log in as root from then on. In general, not having a root account makes it much harder for attackers coming in over ssh (for example) to get in since they don't know the super-user account name
[12:30] <pike_> course no one runs sshd to where root can login
[12:30] <pike_> anyway
[12:30] <PyroSama> Emanon: is ssh running out of the box on ubuntu?
[12:30] <symbiote> ooo i knew tehre was a way haha!
[12:30] <Emanon> PyroSama: I believe that sudo -l just lists what you can and can't do...
[12:30] <pi-meson> I have a laptop without a cdrom drive; are there directions on instaling ubutnu -from- a usb memory stick? all the google hits I find are targeted at installing ubuntu onto a memory stick
[12:30] <bdf> so any takers on my apache issue?
[12:30] <Flannel> PyroSama: Ubuntu has nothing listening by default.  So no.
[12:30] <Emanon> PyroSama: Not unless you install the ssh-server package if I remember correctly
[12:30] <PyroSama> Emanon: i dont know i havent tried. some one corrected me when i said sudo -s
[12:31] <bdf> google is stumped :(
[12:31] <rageagaintthis> what is the button(s) to relieve mouse and keyboard from a virtual system in virtualbox?
[12:31] <idefixx> PyroSama: well sounds reasonable.. not much i know about it though.
[12:31] <PyroSama> Flannel: emonon: ok wasnt sure on that one
[12:31] <Emanon> PyroSama: I just tried it now and it responds with: "User blah may run the following commands:..."
[12:31] <symbiote> yay wine is beign removed!
[12:31] <nn-gentoo_> PyroSama, what are you trying to do?
[12:32] <Flannel> Emanon, PyroSama, it's `sudo -i` not `sudo -l`
[12:32] <greyfrog> !install | pi-meson
[12:32] <ubotu> pi-meson: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[12:32] <pike_> PyroSama, , no server apps out of box
[12:32] <bdf> the part that hurts the most is that this is a totally fresh install of ubuntu 7.04 and the steps to reproduce are very simple :(
[12:32] <PyroSama> idefixx: yeah i havent found much on it relating to ubuntu or much in general i played with the mtd-utils but couldnt figure it out
[12:32] <pike_> well cupsd i guess
[12:32] <PyroSama> Flannel: ah thats what it was ><
[12:32] <Emanon> Flannel: Thanks - do you know why -i is better than -s?
[12:33] <symbiote> k now I just gotta see if that worked..
[12:33] <Flannel> Emanon: they set some environmental variables differently
[12:33] <jam> ok
[12:33] <jam> quit
[12:33] <lucindo> anyone knows how to install Sagem USB modem?
[12:33] <PyroSama> pike_: i am behind a hardware firewall and have my server running ubuntu server (with ssh enabled + vnc + smb) should I consider more than just hardware firewall or should that be sufficiant?
[12:34] <cyber_brain_mfkg> anyone can provide help with routing useing iptables???
[12:34] <leftcase> PyroSama, depends what service you have running on the server?
[12:34] <PyroSama> I have ports 10k to 65k open for torrents other than that web ssh ftp vnc
[12:35] <Emanon> Flannel: OK, I just checked the man page, and it does seem to provide a more complete root environment
[12:35] <tabare1> new to ubuntu: i've installed open suse (10.2); now i want to swith to Ubuntu but disk partition is giving me an error "file systema type ext3 in parfition #7 - any help?
[12:35] <bdf> PyroSama: a firewall wont do anything to prevent exploitable services from being exploited.
[12:35] <nn-gentoo_> PyroSama,  i might give you an account on my server if you could explane what your trying to do
[12:36] <PyroSama> bdf: I'm more concerned about the fact that root is enabled on my server via ssh
[12:36] <ubuntuish> Thanks a lot guys for all the help my migration to ubuntu is finally complete.
[12:36] <symbiote> ok onto the next problem.. this problem ive had since I installed ubuntu.. its kinda annoyhing but I have a workaround already but I wanna fix it..
[12:36] <leftcase> PyroSama, Your server should only be vunerable on the ports you have open - If you've got strong passwords in place, And you're only forwarding the ports to services that you need, you're as safe as anyone else.... If you want more security you'll have to deal with hardening the server
[12:36] <PyroSama> bdf: and my password is 4character alpha
[12:36] <smallfoot> restarting works, now sudo works... why it broke before?
[12:36] <bdf> ouch.
[12:36] <leftcase> PyroSama, not good
[12:36] <smallfoot> i edited my xorg config file, but its still 1024x768, why?
[12:36] <HOT> PyroSama: you can disable ssh root logon in the config file
[12:36] <PyroSama> bdf: however it is a firewalled port
[12:36] <symbiote> when i boot up teh screen goes blank.. and stays liek taht.. id ont think it even laods anything.. the monitor doesnt go into powersave mode it just is black..
[12:37] <PyroSama> HOT: I use the root ssh all the time though.
[12:37] <symbiote> ive tryed to reconfigure xorg in teh recovery console.. didnt work
[12:37] <aca> i'm recompiling my kernel and getting tons of errors when I make menuconfig or xconfig
[12:37] <HOT> PyroSama: can you not login as another user then elevate?
[12:37] <symbiote> my solution is to run recovery mode.. then type init 5 and it boots up fine..
[12:38] <symbiote> but I wanna fix it permenantly
[12:38] <nn-gentoo_> PyroSama,  There is a way you can say onily a computer with this public key can ssh as root
[12:38] <cootpc> anyone have screen rez problems after install?
[12:38] <PyroSama> HOT: if i wasnt lazy I'm sure. I supose I could change the setup a bit to protect it.
[12:38] <kurumin> hi
[12:38] <PyroSama> nn-gentoo_: huh?
[12:39] <HOT> well i disable root over ssh as my first step, it takes like three seconds to become root
[12:39] <PyroSama> nn-gentoo_: oh i gotcha
[12:39] <HOT> and stops me doing anything rash
[12:39] <symbiote> anyone know how to fix that? do we all have that same silly bug?
[12:39] <Flannel> PyroSama: just disable root, and use sudo.

[12:39] <cyber_brain_mfkg> anyone can provide help with routing useing iptables???
[12:39] <edmon> HEEEEEEEEY can some one help me with my grafikcard? i tryed to install the driver but it still dont work
[12:40] <PyroSama> Flannel: what i'm getting at is should I be concerned since I am behind a hardware firewall
[12:40] <edmon> ATI 9800
[12:40] <PyroSama> !ati
[12:40] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:40] <Flannel> PyroSama: why shouldn't you be concerned?  How does a firewall help in this case?
[12:40] <edmon> i tryed to do those step but still dont work
[12:40] <kimy_> hi
[12:40] <PyroSama> Flannel: since outside of my network those ports are not open
[12:41] <Flannel> PyroSama: er... whats the point of SSH if you can't do it remotely?
[12:41] <edmon>  HEEEEEEEEY can some one help me with my grafikcard? i tryed to install the driver but it still dont work
[12:41] <PyroSama> Flannel: my server is in my garage with out mon key mouse
[12:41] <Flannel> PyroSama: besides, you'll find not needing to open a second SSH session simply to do some administrative task is a benefit.  connecting again for root is stupid
[12:41] <HOT> oh new kernel eh, that sounds fun.....
[12:41] <idefixx> PyroSama: just read up on jffs2 a little. the mkfs.jffs in mtd-tools doesnt work for you?
[12:41] <kimy_> is possible to use vol_id from knoppix live to view uid of disk and then write this uid in fstab of ubuntu in the same pc?
[12:41] <edmon>  HEEEEEEEEY can some one help me with my grafikcard? i tryed to install the driver but it still dont work
[12:42] <HOT> btw you can also log in as root with : ssh 10.0.0.01 -l root
[12:42] <HOT> if you must
[12:42] <Flannel> kimy_: Yeah.  Those should be the same regardless of how you're looking at them
[12:42] <edmon>  HEEEEEEEEY can some one help me with my grafikcard? i tryed to install the driver but it still dont work
[12:42] <PyroSama> idefixx: from what i read it doesnt actually make the fs on the drive but makes a disk image
[12:42] <Flannel> !repeat | edmon
[12:42] <ubotu> edmon: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[12:42] <smallfoot> only the first user can use sudo?
[12:42] <nn-gentoo_> or sudo su or plane su
[12:42] <symbiote> screen BLANK after grub!!! I want a fix for that anyone know how? besides reconfiguring xorg.. cuz Ive already tryed that
[12:42] <n2diy> ! repeat | edmon
[12:42] <PyroSama> idefixx: which i'm not sure what to do with
[12:42] <Flannel> smallfoot: only users in the admin group.  First user is by default
[12:42] <smallfoot> oh ok
[12:42] <edmon>  HEEEEEEEEY can some one help me with my grafikcard? i tryed to install the driver but it still dont work
[12:42] <smallfoot> that explains why sudo didnt work
[12:43] <Flannel> edmon: Please stop repeating that.
[12:43] <edmon> omg no one well hlep me?
[12:43] <idefixx> PyroSama: i'll try that now.. still got some unsed flash thingys here :)
[12:43] <PyroSama> edmon: those who help them selves.....
[12:43] <dayylin> edmon: did you check out https://help.ubuntu.com?
[12:43] <Flannel> !patience | edmon
[12:43] <ubotu> edmon: 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
[12:44] <PyroSama> idefixx: awesome let me know how it turns out. I would love to run a flash native file system on this thing
[12:44] <PyroSama> idefixx: it is buggy at best when running ext2
[12:44] <shnastybiznastic> so I want to be able to run WoW with beryl running also.  I've got a Radeon 9800 Pro, which is an ATI card.  According to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=344271 I need to have Direct rendering enabled, but when I $glxinfo | grep render it says I don't have Direct rendering enabled.  how can I enable it?  DRI in xorg.conf?
[12:45] <symbiote> man i used to help people with computer problems.. deskside assistance for a windows office.. man.. I was treated liek a god.. as should u guys lol *bows down b4 the almighty Ubuntu gurus*
[12:45] <tabare1> need to leave but do not forget me. any help will be appreciated!
[12:45] <n2diy> shnastybiznastic: can you tell edmon how to configure the 9800?
[12:45] <PyroSama> Flannel: how do I provide key restrictions for my ssh?
[12:45] <PyroSama> Flannel: if I understood  that correctly
[12:46] <HOT> shnastybiznastic: what drivers are you using, the open or closed source?
[12:46] <tabare1> quit
[12:46] <idefixx> PyroSama: just to keep you updated as far as i understand this by now... you create the file write it to the flash device and mount the 'file' like if you mount with -oloop.. i guess.. trying now.
[12:46] <shnastybiznastic> HOT: fglrx.  I believe those are ATI's closed source ones.
[12:47] <aca> is CPU Frequency scaling needed in the kernel?
[12:47] <HOT> shnastybiznastic: they are, and they have uses with DRI im afraid
[12:47] <PyroSama> i'm about to upgrade my laptop to 64 bit cpu. will I need to reinstall with 64bit version or will ubuntu transition fine with out an upgrade?
[12:47] <shnastybiznastic> n2diy: sure, what's the problem, simple 2d rendering, or 3d stuff?
[12:47] <HOT> shnastybiznastic: let me check my config
[12:47] <Flannel> PyroSama: 32 to 64bit isn't an 'upgrade', you need to reinstall
[12:47] <shnastybiznastic> HOT: that's a bummer
[12:47] <n2diy> shnastybiznastic: not sure, he was asking for help with it, and nobody responded, edmon you still with us?
[12:48] <Flannel> PyroSama: however, you *can* still run a 32bit OS on your new CPU
[12:48] <PyroSama> idefixx: hmm I wounder if that will conflict with booting to the ssd
[12:48] <HOT> nano /ect/X11/xorg.conf | grep DRI
[12:48] <PyroSama> Flannel: Should show up as two cpu's right?
[12:48] <n2diy> edmon: you still here?
[12:48] <HOT> dammit, sorry
[12:48] <edmon> yes
[12:48] <shnastybiznastic> heh
[12:48] <symbiote> ok im gonan reinstall wine from synaptic now.. now that i dont got any updates to do and everything seems fine.. I wanna play world of warcraft lol
[12:48] <Flannel> PyroSama: the 64bit part wont, no.  But you're most likely getting a CPU with dualcore, so that part will cause it to, yes.
[12:49] <shnastybiznastic> edmon: what seems to be the problem?
[12:49] <n2diy> edmon: shnastybiznastic has a 9800 setup, and is willing to help you.
[12:49] <PyroSama> Flannel: the cpu I purchased isnt dual core sadly
[12:49] <edmon> i install the driver like it says here http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Installation_Guide
[12:49] <Flannel> PyroSama: Hyperthreading at least then, most likely.
[12:49] <PyroSama> Flannel: I am upgrading from a sempron 3300 to aa turion
[12:49] <edmon> but when i type fglrxinfo inte mass-porjct not ati
[12:50] <PyroSama> Flannel: Ok.
[12:50] <nachb> plop
[12:50] <Flannel> PyroSama: yeah, that'll have hyperthreading.  So you'll still have two CPUs.  But 64bit doesn't downgrade into two 32bit CPUs
[12:50] <aca> Flannel: not all amd64s have HT
[12:50] <HOT> ok this is what i have for DRI on the closed source
[12:50] <HOT> Section "DRI"
[12:50] <HOT>         Mode    0666
[12:50] <HOT> EndSection

[12:50] <aca> dylock: install windows
[12:50] <Flannel> PyroSama: alright, then maybe you won't necessarily have HT.  You'll have to check
[12:50] <shnastybiznastic> HOT: I'll try that, thanks
[12:50] <PyroSama> Flannel: I though maybe it would treat it as two cpu's but I dont know enough about 64bit to really know without trying.
[12:50] <shadowhywind> what is the correct line i should add to my fstab to mount a vfat partition with read/write for all users?

[01:08] <atlantis> no.... wait, $2.00 CAN
[01:08] <HOT> >> is append
[01:08] <PyroSama> TaJMoX: why not set it in xorg.conf to what you need and leave it there?
[01:08] <PyroSama> atlantis: I'll pass sorry :P
[01:08] <brad_> i'm having a slight problem, i have a Microsoft LifeChat LX-3000 headset, ubuntu see's it, and knows what it is.... but i dont hear sound.... any idea why? or what i can do to fix it?
[01:08] <Juhaz> HOT, same as in same as what he said they were in dos
[01:08] <atlantis> ok, ok $2.00 - Paso's
[01:08] <TaJMoX> PyroSama : Like I said, no matter what it is in xorg.conf, it doesn't change my screen resolution.
[01:08] <HOT> Juhaz: ah i see
[01:09] <idefixx> PyroSama: doh, it doesnt work on blockdevices it has to be a mtd device to work. that much i know now :)
[01:09] <PyroSama> atlantis: if I can keep the pretty stickers off the sticks that say "oem crap hp stuck you with"
[01:09] <atlantis> leave it to a bipolar to quit....
[01:09] <Shin_Gouki> how do i verify that cups is installed and running as it should?
[01:09] <TaJMoX> PyroSama : Also it is nessicary for me to switch between 2 screen resolutions.   Any idea why xorg.conf doesnt matter?   I'm using fglrx
[01:09] <brad_> its a usb headset.... is there a drive i need to make sure is installed?
[01:10] <atlantis> oem crap hp stuck me with ?!?, that's below the belt. you meant to say the OEM crap Crucial stuck me with.
[01:10] <HOT> Shin_Gouki: type lpstat -d
[01:10] <ubuntuish> is there a firewall auto enabled in ubuntu?
[01:10] <PyroSama> idefixx: Ah so no nand flash compat. Hmm yaffs was written with nand in mind I belive
[01:10] <TaJMoX> ubuntuish : yes
[01:10] <jrib> !firewall > ubuntuish (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:10] <RabidWeezle> Hello all, I'm looking for instructions of setting up s-video out on my laptop, I can't find anything on the wiki
[01:10] <ubuntuish> ty
[01:11] <PyroSama> idefixx: I wounder if there is a patch for jffs2 floating about
[01:11] <n2diy> ubuntuish: yes.
[01:11] <Shin_Gouki> ho shit
[01:11] <Herosblade> hey im having trouble getting my wireless card in ubuntu
[01:11] <Shin_Gouki> HOT, it says: no system wide target
[01:11] <Shin_Gouki> ??
[01:11] <ubuntuish> is there possibly a gui to control it?
[01:11] <HOT> no printer is available then
[01:11] <atlantis> wireless in ubuntu - problems.... ?!? - thats just unheard of.
[01:11] <Herosblade> ubuntu site said that it works out of the box
[01:11] <n2diy> ubuntuish: Firestarter
[01:11] <ubuntuish> kthnx
[01:11] <Herosblade> but it doesnt show up at all
[01:11] <foso> how do i repartition my hd? im dual booting, want to give linux more room
[01:12] <atlantis> reformat - give linux the whole drive.... no need for anything else.
[01:12] <ubuntuish> n2diy, just told me firestarter isn't installed :/
[01:12] <PyroSama> idefixx: http://www.linuxdevices.com/news/NS7386103729.html
[01:12] <Shin_Gouki> HOT, i just want to install freenx and the nx node isntall gave me that CUPS is not installed or in a non" standard path", actually i have NO printer installed, do i need to install a PDF cups to get the nx node install working?
[01:12] <n2diy> ubuntuish: correct, install it with apt-get, synaptic, etc...
[01:12] <sldkfj> foso, ever heard of gparted ?
[01:12] <jhasse> How can i adjust my cpu speed with gnome-power-manager?
[01:12] <foso> sldkfj no i havent
[01:13] <ubuntuish> n2diy, i think you missed my question
[01:13] <brad_> so is there some documentation somewhere about microsoft lifechat headsets i can read?? or some trick to making them work?
[01:13] <HOT> Shin_Gouki: in a nutshell yes
[01:13] <foso> atlantis i need to keep xp for running programs at school
[01:13] <TaJMoX> foso : gparted can resize your partitions - make sure they're un-mounted first
[01:13] <sldkfj> gparted = gnome partition editor
[01:13] <ubuntuish> n2diy, it seems my ports are being blocked which have been forwarded on the router already i was wondering are they being blocked by ubuntu automatically?
[01:13] <atlantis> what programs does school use that you can't find a substitue on linux for .
[01:13] <Shin_Gouki> hot, ok u got a link/guide for me , which is short and works? :D
[01:13] <foso> TaJMoX how do i make sure they are unmounted?
[01:13] <atlantis> other than games. most have alternatives
[01:14] <n2diy> ubuntuish: nope, the firewall is installed and running, but the gui to control it isn't.
[01:14] <foso> atlantis microcase, its a stats program
[01:14] <TaJMoX> foso : um.. the umount command.
[01:14] <ubuntuish> ah gotchya ty
[01:14] <HOT> Shin_Gouki: in a nutshell yes again : http://applications.linux.com/article.pl?sid=07/05/03/1421232&tid=47
[01:14] <RabidWeezle> Herosblade, what wireless card?
[01:14] <foso> TaJMoX, do i find that in the gui for gpart?
[01:14] <tsuamia> is there a deb for pidgin?
[01:14] <jhasse> tsuamia: yes
[01:15] <tsuamia> Jhasse: where? I can't find it
[01:15] <Shin_Gouki> hot, thx a lot i try this!
[01:15] <jhasse> tsuamia: http://www.getdeb.net/app.php?name=Pidgin
[01:15] <TaJMoX> foso : gparted can try to unmount your partition ...unless it is the root partition (the partition you are running)   if you want to resize your OS that you are using right now, you will need to boot from the live CD so that it isn't mounted
[01:15] <sldkfj> foso, open it up and see what is there in the gui exactly
[01:15] <HOT> np
[01:15] <ubunt1> heyyyy

[01:17] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[01:17] <Herosblade> so i gotta reboot in linux to try anything
[01:17] <RabidWeezle> Herosblade, goto adminastration>networking
[01:17] <ubuntu-dell> I lost windows after installing grub
[01:17] <ubuntu-dell> anyone know a guide for this?
[01:17] <Herosblade> i dont have that
[01:18] <n2diy> Herosblade: linux commands won't run in winders!
[01:18] <ubuntu-dell> after installing ubuntu i should say
[01:18] <Herosblade> in admidistration there is no networking tab
[01:18] <Herosblade> and yes
[01:18] <Herosblade> i did it from linux
[01:18] <Herosblade> last night
[01:18] <sldkfj> !grub
[01:18] <RabidWeezle> oh, well, reboot if you gotta then
[01:18] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[01:18] <Herosblade> k
[01:18] <Herosblade> ill try it
[01:18] <max_> hey guys
[01:18] <RabidWeezle> k
[01:18] <Herosblade> wait real fast
[01:18] <Flannel> ubuntu-dell: you didn't lose windows.  GRUB should have autodetected, and included a windows option for grub, but if not, it's easy engh to add.
[01:18] <idefixx> PyroSama: but as for booting from it. i guess that has to work as its deved by axis which probably use it for their stuff and all their devices have to boot some how :)
[01:18] <RabidWeezle> I'm always here
[01:18] <RabidWeezle> lol
[01:18] <Herosblade> i dont have a administrator>networking
[01:18] <RabidWeezle> ubuntu or kubuntu?
[01:19] <Herosblade> ubuntu
[01:19] <sldkfj> there ya go ubuntu-dell.  ^^^
[01:19] <PyroSama> idefixx: my goal is to run my os on my ssd in my laptop for power consumption reasons. 8gb doesnt afford much personal file space so any thing I need safe is kept on my server
[01:19] <RabidWeezle> hold on, lemme get on my laptop
[01:19] <TaJMoX> gutts : try #winehq
[01:19] <KEEEV> what would be a good distro for hosting Web and IRCd? FreeBSD?
[01:19] <ubuntu-dell> Flannel: I was lazy in my typing, i lost the option to boot... :)
[01:19] <b_e_n_z> Herosblade, left click on the network applet, pick your wireless network from the list, right click on the selected wireless network, enter security information if any (WEP, WPA etc.), enter passphrases, keys... that's it
[01:19] <aamy> just installed the latest release of ubuntu. I have a three-monitor setup with two video cards (both nvidia). I read the guide, and got the second monitor working using twinview, but my third monitor which is on a seperate video card is not working. have already tried googling for this info. any help is appreciated?
[01:19] <tsuamia> herosblade: click edit menus and tick the tab you want
[01:19] <Flannel> ubuntu-dell: To boot what?
[01:19] <PyroSama> So with nand flash's limited life span I know this will die fairly quick so data security is already thought about
[01:19] <Pelo> KEEEV, the ppl in ##linux might have an answer for you
[01:19] <Herosblade> k
[01:20] <foso> TaJMoX i have gparted, and it has an unmount command, but i want to make my xp partition smaller and this one bigger
[01:20] <KEEEV> ty
[01:20] <TaJMoX> KEEEV ubuntu makes a fine server
[01:20] <Flannel> ubuntu-dell: oh, boot windows.  Right.  You just add windows to the end of your menu.lst, are you sure it's not there already?
[01:20] <ubuntu-dell> Flannel: I installed ubuntu over windows vista
[01:20] <ubuntu-dell> it's not i just checked
[01:20] <TaJMoX> foso : right click your windows partition and go at it...
[01:20] <RabidWeezle> ok Herosblade, oto System>administration>network
[01:20] <odat> anyone know where deli linux irc channel is?
[01:20] <sldkfj> I'd remove vista myself
[01:20] <sldkfj> good lord
[01:20] <RabidWeezle> goto*
[01:20] <ubunt1> PriceChild: http://www.pichaga.com:81/squirrelmail/src/configtest.php
[01:21] <foso> how do i add it to my linux partition TaJMoX?
[01:21] <ubunt1> PriceChild: how can i make the directory to be writable RROR: Data dir (../data/) is not writable!
[01:21] <Pelo> odat, check on their site if they have an official one it will be listed
[01:21] <RabidWeezle> Herosblade, it's on the top bar there in gnome
[01:21] <Flannel> ubuntu-dell: hmm. Well, I'm not familiar with the proper windows boot stuff.  But you'll be able to add it back in.  I'd try googling, I guess.  A lot of people aren't familiar with grub + vista yet, since it's still new
[01:21] <TaJMoX> foso ...after you shrink your windows partition - then enlarge your linux partition ?
[01:21] <PyroSama> !inherit
[01:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about inherit - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:21] <odat> anyone know anything about deli linux
[01:21] <foso> can i do that, unmount it etc while im in linux?
[01:21] <ubunt1> Flannel: windows vista and ubuntu is working,i have them,.
[01:22] <Herosblade>  :rabid i tryed that
[01:22] <Pelo> odat, what is deli linux ?
[01:22] <ubunt1> PriceChild: are you here?
[01:22] <Flannel> odat: #ubuntu-offtopic, if anywhere.
[01:22] <Herosblade> it didt detect a wireless network
[01:22] <PyroSama> Hmm attempting to run a script and it returns "inherit command not found"
[01:22] <TaJMoX> foso : boot from live cd ?
[01:22] <RabidWeezle> Herosblade, does it show your wireless network card?
[01:22] <n2diy> pdat: I just discovered that yesterday! I'm thinking about DLing it.
[01:22] <Herosblade>  RabidWeezle, no
[01:22] <Monteh> ello there
[01:22] <idefixx> PyroSama: nice approach, 8GB should be enough for the os.. i guess you'll have to look into the whole mtd.. stuff to make it work.
[01:22] <foso> ok, so i should be running from the cd to do this, can i get gparted while running the cd TaJMoX?
[01:22] <RabidWeezle> Herosblade, so in all reality linux isn't seeing it at all?
[01:23] <Herosblade> correct
[01:23] <TaJMoX> foso : yes
[01:23] <PyroSama> idefixx: I found some info on yaffs2
[01:23] <oneseventeen> I'm running Feisty Fawn and can't see my external HDD, any tips?
[01:23] <stojance> Can I please talk to someone, again, for a very serious bug that no one seems to care about but me?
[01:23] <Flannel> ubunt1: Then give ubuntu-dell appropriate grub entry for it, if you don't mind.
[01:23] <jrib> oneseventeen: what filesystem?
[01:23] <oneseventeen> (I can see many external storage devices, just not this particular USB HDD)
[01:23] <foso> TaJMoX thanks alot, i just want to make sure im doing this right, im obviously pretty new at this
[01:23] <PyroSama> idefixx: do you have an aim / msn account that I could hit you up on since this many people in an irc is confusing?
[01:23] <TaJMoX> People, come back when you actually have a problem or need help.   Otherwise your first step should be to try something for yourself.
[01:23] <RabidWeezle> Herosblade, like on my linksys wireless it shows eth0 as my wired, then eth2 as my wireless
[01:23] <Flannel> stojance: Did you file a bug report?
[01:23] <Pelo> oneseventeen, make sure it is powered on
[01:23] <ubunt1> Flannel: why???
[01:24] <ubunt1> Flannel: RROR: Data dir (../data/) is not writable!
[01:24] <oneseventeen> jrib: can't remember, but it is the one I used to back up my old Ubuntu install before formatting and starting from scratch
[01:24] <RabidWeezle> Herosblade, what I would say then, hrm, what's the model again?
[01:24] <Herosblade> wg311v2
[01:24] <stojance> Flannel: of course, and again, no one seems to care about it... I filed it a year ago
[01:24] <Herosblade> the pci one
[01:24] <oneseventeen> Pelo: yup, it's on and I can even hear the drive spinning.
[01:24] <n2diy> Pelo: http://delili.lens.hl-users.com/index.html#download
[01:24] <ubunt1> Flannel: i'm killing,to search how to enable it.
[01:24] <bulio|> I used a live CD to edit my partition table, now when I am trying to boot grub gives me an error 15
[01:24] <RabidWeezle> novell?
[01:24] <TaJMoX> foso : best way to learn is by doing
[01:24] <bulio|> how can I fix the partition table to reflect the changes?
[01:24] <ubunt1> Flannel: why he don't see it
[01:24] <jrib> oneseventeen: does it show up when you type 'sudo fdisk -l'?
[01:24] <idefixx> PyroSama: i am allways on freenode with nick... feel free to msg me :). sry but it takes some time until someone gets my im accounts ;)
[01:24] <Herosblade> ?
[01:24] <Flannel> ubunt1: What?
[01:24] <Herosblade> its a netgear
[01:24] <RabidWeezle> I'd say Herosblade, check the wiki first
[01:24] <idefixx> PyroSama: with this nick*
[01:24] <Flannel> stojance: Which bug?
[01:24] <ubuntu-dell> when im in grub, how do i find out what to point root toward when adding an OS?
[01:25] <RabidWeezle> Herosblade, they have lists of working hardware, and such there
[01:25] <TaJMoX> bulio| because grub is still looking for the /boot in the same place it used to be... its not there anymore
[01:25] <ubuntu-dell> the existing options say root hdd (0,0)
[01:25] <Pelo> oneseventeen, make sure it stays powered on and unplug/replug the usb cable
[01:25] <ubunt1> Flannel: you hear me
[01:25] <ubunt1> Flannel: why i need to help
[01:25] <PyroSama> idefixx: haha np I'll hit you up on freenode in a moment
[01:25] <Herosblade> i checked the wiki
[01:25] <Monteh> ok ive tried the alternate install disk, but there is an error about my processor cant be found or identified ~.~
[01:25] <bulio|> TaJMoX: how can I fix this?
[01:25] <TaJMoX> ubuntu-dell hd(0,0) means hda1       hd(0,1) means hda2
[01:25] <stojance> Flannel: I don't even have the url any more... but that's why I'd like to talk to someone... I have the solution, it's just for you guys to implement it
[01:25] <oneseventeen> jrib: I *think* I see it after fdisk -l
[01:25] <RabidWeezle> Herosblade, Is this a PCCard wireless, a pci wireless or usb wireless?
[01:25] <ubunt1> Flannel: i put this error and nobody see it
[01:25] <ubunt1> RROR: Data dir (../data/) is not writable!
[01:26] <Herosblade> pci wireless
[01:26] <TaJMoX> bulio| i suggest you start reading the existing grub conversations
[01:26] <oneseventeen> jrib: it is marked as /dev/sda1 and is Fat32
[01:26] <jrib> oneseventeen: when you type 'mount', you do not see it listed, correct?
[01:26] <RabidWeezle> lspci doesn't even show it
[01:26] <RabidWeezle> ?
[01:26] <Herosblade> lspci
[01:26] <Herosblade> let me try it
[01:26] <TaJMoX> bulio| it depends on where your partitions are at now.    try the grub docs
[01:26] <Flannel> ubuntu-dell: That'll be the partition that you want to boot to.  So, your windows partition
[01:26] <Shin_Gouki> HOT, great that seemed to work u have a advise how i now uninstall my "broken" nx server install i folloed this guide so far: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2743152

[01:26] <ubotu> GTK is the !GIMP toolkit, which forms the base of !GNOME and is used by many applications to provide a !GUI
[01:26] <bulio|> TaJMoX: but what file do I edit to add in the new changes
[01:26] <ubunt1> ubuntu-dell: it can rubn
[01:27] <bulio|> and what command do I use to see all my current partitions?
[01:27] <TaJMoX> bulio| try 'grub'
[01:27] <RabidWeezle> this is why I choose my hardware according to the compatibility lists...
[01:27] <TaJMoX> bulio| and man grub
[01:27] <ubunt1> ubuntu-dell: what can i say you man.
[01:27] <omegacenti> If I am using gnome, is GTK a part of it? I am not sure if I should download some stuff such as wdigets for GTK+
[01:27] <bulio|> /etc/fstab?
[01:27] <tritium> bulio|: sudo fdisk -l
[01:27] <oneseventeen> jrib: nope, it is not there when I type mount
[01:27] <Flannel> ubunt1: That's hardly a descriptive error.  What are you doing?  when does it happen?  And you're helping him because you have a vista entry in grub, and he needs to know what to append to his.
[01:27] <ubunt1> ubuntu-dell: can you receive pm
[01:27] <RabidWeezle> I never get linux unfriendly hardware
[01:27] <n2diy> RabidWeezle df -h
[01:27] <TaJMoX> bulio| you might have to edit that too
[01:27] <Pelo> omegacenti,  gnome uses gtk
[01:27] <jrib> oneseventeen: alright, try to mount it.  Are you familiar with using mount on the command line?
[01:27] <RabidWeezle> what n2diy ?
[01:27] <RabidWeezle> lol
[01:28] <PyroSama> Hmm
[01:28] <omegacenti> Pelo: So its okay to download widgets made for GTK+?
[01:28] <Flannel> stojance: Well, The best place to put it would be in your bug report.  So you'll be best off doing it there.  I can help you find it though.  Whats your LP ID?
[01:28] <PyroSama> It apears this server is on freenode :P
[01:28] <n2diy> RabidWeezle df -h list your partitions.
[01:28] <ubunt1> Flannel: from #ubuntu-uk they say to come in ubuntu
[01:28] <TaJMoX> moving around your partitions can make the OS confused, as it doesn't know where to look - fix grub and edit your fstab
[01:28] <ubuntu-dell> i can rx pm
[01:28] <bulio|> ok, I see all the devices with fdisk -l
[01:28] <Pelo> omegacenti, it should

[01:28] <RabidWeezle> lspci
[01:28] <oneseventeen> jrib: I haven't used mount from the command line in a while, I'm assuming sudo mount /dev/sda1 /some/mountpoint
[01:28] <idefixx> PyroSama: it is :)
[01:28] <Herosblade> thx
[01:28] <n2diy> RabidWeezle This channel moves to fast!
[01:28] <Herosblade> brb
[01:28] <Pelo> omegacenti,  worst possible problem you will be told you need to install a couple of extra dependencies,  it won't break your system or anything
[01:28] <RabidWeezle> np
[01:28] <RabidWeezle> lol
[01:29] <Flannel> stojance: no, that won't be helpful at all.  What was your LP ID?
[01:29] <RabidWeezle> it ok n2diy
[01:29] <ubunt1> ubuntu-dell: now man
[01:29] <PyroSama> idefixx: Ygpm
[01:29] <ubuntu-dell> now man?
[01:29] <omegacenti> Pelo: Thanks :)
[01:29] <Flannel> ubunt1: that's because nobody knows what you're asking.  We need more information.
[01:29] <ubuntu-dell> what?
[01:29] <ubunt1> ubuntu-dell: WIndows VIsta ultimate work with ubuntu and ubuntu feisty
[01:29] <RabidWeezle> but if you got any answers for a not working s-video out n2diy lemme know ;)
[01:29] <bulio|> TaJMoX: http://rafb.net/p/AczcUI99.html
[01:29] <stojance> Flannel: sdimitrovski (I think... I havent been really using lp that much)
[01:29] <jrib> oneseventeen: right, make sure you create /some/mountpoint first, then: sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /some/mountpoint   .  If that works, you'll probably want to tweak the permissions and/or add it to fstab
[01:29] <ubuntu-dell> yhes it does
[01:29] <ubunt1> ubuntu-dell: what first you install?
[01:29] <ubuntu-dell> i had it working on another computer
[01:29] <RabidWeezle> !SVIDEO
[01:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about svideo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:29] <TaJMoX> bulio| not found
[01:29] <ubunt1> ubuntu-dell: vista?
[01:29] <n2diy> RabidWeezle Nope, can't help you there, gl.
[01:29] <ubuntu-dell> ubunt1:  you have to install windows first or it gets feisty
[01:30] <RabidWeezle> lol
[01:30] <ubuntu-dell> then you have to add an entry in grub
[01:30] <Pelo> RabidWeezle, try here  http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty and http://book.opensourceproject.org.cn/distrib/ubuntu/unleashed/
[01:30] <ubunt1> ubuntu-dell: it don;t mater
[01:30] <ubuntu-dell> www.ubuntuguide.org
[01:30] <TaJMoX> ubuntu-dell : you need to edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst    the comments in there will tell you how
[01:30] <ubunt1> ubuntu-dell: when you install vista,then install ubuntu
[01:30] <jrib> RabidWeezle: have you tried https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Radeon7500TVOut
[01:30] <ubuntu-dell> lol i think ubuntu just installed over my windows vista install
[01:30] <ubuntu-dell> that i took 2 days tweaking
[01:30] <ubuntu-dell> lol
[01:30] <bulio|> TaJMoX: http://rafb.net/p/AczcUl99.html
[01:30] <ubuntu-dell> even though i told it not to
[01:31] <tritium> RabidWeezle: make sure you've read /usr/share/doc/nvidia-glx/README.txt.gz
[01:31] <CJ_> can anyone tell me how to add IPv4 to an network interface?
[01:31] <ubunt1> ubuntu-dell: when return to windows vista and make partition
[01:31] <Pelo> ubuntu-dell, that's very lucky,  linux is the only antivirus capable of getting rid of windows
[01:31] <idefixx> PyroSama: na i dont you'll have to register (nickserv) to send msgs... if you dont want to look me up on quakenet, i think you can msg unreged there.
[01:31] <TaJMoX> bulio| you have two Linux partitions - which one contains /boot ?
[01:31] <stojance> https://bugs.launchpad.net/gst/+bug/14328
[01:31] <RabidWeezle> tritium, I would, but I have an ATI
[01:31] <ubuntu-dell> gparted would see an ntfs partition wouldnt it?
[01:31] <tritium> RabidWeezle: ah, okay
[01:31] <bulio|> TaJMoX: I'm not sure
[01:31] <stojance> this one is very similar to the one
[01:31] <bulmer> CJ_ what was the problem?
[01:31] <ubunt1> ubuntu-dell: and install there,after that install grub and vista maybe will be there,if not put the dvd of windows vista
[01:32] <Flannel> stojance: https://bugs.launchpad.net/~sdimitrovski/  But I don't see any bugs reported.  Is that you?
[01:32] <PyroSama> idefixx: eh at the first part? and I'll just register
[01:32] <ubunt1> ubuntu-dell: and go to recovery and make fixmbr
[01:32] <TaJMoX> bulio| that'd be the first step - figure out where your linux is
[01:32] <bulio|> I thought it was on /dev/hda2
[01:32] <oneseventeen> jrib: thanks, that worked great, I can at least read data from it (which is all I want to do today)
[01:32] <ubuntu-dell> ... but gparted sees the partition as ext
[01:32] <n2diy> CJ_: I thought all network interfaces supported IPv4?
[01:32] <TaJMoX> bulio| look at the thing u sent me - it says its windows on hda2
[01:32] <oneseventeen> jrib: any ideas why it doesn't automount like it used to?
[01:32] <stojance> Flannel: yup that's me... dunno why it isn't there
[01:32] <bulio|> TaJMoX: which is weird, I don't have windows installed
[01:32] <CJ_> its a wireless netwokr card, IPv6 is active but the router doesnt support it, IPv4 isnt running on that network interface
[01:32] <ubunt1> ubuntu-dell: did you make a partiton for ubuntu
[01:33] <jrib> oneseventeen: no, I'm not sure.  Do other drives automount at the moment?
[01:33] <ubuntu-dell> yes, in the install wizard
[01:33] <ubuntu-dell> sigh
[01:33] <ubuntu-dell> well see you guys later
[01:33] <ubuntu-dell> it's going to be a late night lol
[01:33] <n2diy> CJ_: ok, gl.
[01:33] <oneseventeen> jrib: I actually don't have any other with me... but they did when I first installed Feisty Fawn....
[01:33] <ubuntu-dell> hopefully windows activation doesn't get borked
[01:33] <CJ_> it need to run off the DHCP
[01:33] <ubunt1> ubuntu-dell: install it again,becouse
[01:33] <PyroSama> /server irc.quakenet.com
[01:33] <PyroSama> err crapp
[01:33] <ubunt1> ubuntu-dell: install vista manager
[01:33] <ubunt1> ubuntu-dell: and make a backup of activation.
[01:33] <oneseventeen> jrib: could it be because I modified fstab at one point?
[01:34] <ubuntu-dell> sigh...sigh sigh sigh
[01:34] <jrib> oneseventeen: check that gnome-volume-manager is running, check that it doesn't have "noauto" in your fstab for your drive
[01:34] <ubuntu-dell> c ya guys later
[01:34] <ubuntu-dell> it's going to be a late night
[01:34] <ubunt1> ubuntu-dell: install the latest,i have 1.1.6 and it backup it.
[01:34] <bulmer> CJ_: how did you verify that ipv4 is not running on that interface?
[01:34] <stojance> Flannel: can I tell someone here the solution, it's pretty simple (for you), for us it's a BIG pain in the ass
[01:34] <ubunt1> ubuntu-dell: ok see godnist.
[01:34] <CJ_> ifconfig ra0
[01:34] <bulio|> how do I mount one of those hda in a live CD, TaJMoX?
[01:34] <Pupeno> Hello.
[01:34] <Flannel> stojance: #ubuntu-bugs would be the place
[01:34] <Monteh> would anyone with to help me with my "getting ubuntu to isntall at all problem"?
[01:34] <TaJMoX> bulio| mount /dev/hda6 /mnt
[01:34] <stojance> Flannel: thanks!
[01:34] <Flannel> stojance: but really, commenting on the package is the proper place
[01:35] <Aeos> Hi I installed ubuntu desktop and I was wondering what is stopping my other PC from making an SSH connection
[01:35] <TaJMoX> bulio| mount (device) (destination)     also i suggest a linux beginner guide
[01:35] <stojance> Flannel: it's not a package that's the bug, the solution is a package
[01:35] <Flannel> Aeos: did you install openssh-server?
[01:35] <bulio|> I need to specify a filesystem
[01:35] <oneseventeen> jrib: gvm is running, and the cdrom is the only place I see "noauto"
[01:35] <bulio|> TaJMoX: I'm familiar with Linux commands
[01:35] <Aeos> ah no
[01:35] <bulmer> CJ_: can you respond with a nick as prefix..its easier to follow
[01:35] <Pupeno> Any ideas how to use Ekiga for a regular SIP account? I have the information that I can just configure a hardware VoIP phone, dial and it works... and most softphones as well, but Ekiga refuses to make calls ("Can not connect to host" or "Security check failed") but I can receive phone calls.
[01:35] <Flannel> stojance: I meant adding a comment to your bug report.
[01:35] <TaJMoX> bulio| try mounting hda7
[01:35] <stojance> oh, k
[01:35] <Aeos> I can do that if it will allow me to use putty into it
[01:35] <n2diy> Aeos: what command are you using to connect with?
[01:35] <magik> Hey everyone :) any know how to get in touch with an admin for freenode? Theres a nickname registered by nickwserv thaqt I would like to claim.. It hasnt been used in over as year
[01:36] <Aeos> I am using putty to connect
[01:36] <Rex_> hello all...
[01:36] <Rex_> can someone tell me where I can start and configure compiz?
[01:36] <n2diy> Aeos: to the root account?
[01:36] <jrib> !freenode > magik (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:36] <Flannel> Aeos: you need to install the SSH server, to be able to connect.
[01:36] <drake4> magik, I wish mine would expire, forgot the password
[01:36] <magik> lol
[01:36] <Rex_> I already have it installed
[01:36] <drake4> you would think they would have more sane expiration policies
[01:36] <Aeos> no ubuntu didnt even let me setup the root account
[01:36] <bulio|> I mounted it, but in /mnt only lost+found is there
[01:37] <CJ_> bulmer:  Ok
[01:37] <bulio|> magik: /stats p
[01:37] <Aeos> ok thanks Fannel
[01:37] <n2diy> Aeos: ok just double checking, I'm not familiar with putty, gl.
[01:37] <bulmer> CJ_: how did you verify that ipv4 is not running on that interface? what was the result?
[01:37] <nerdygirl_ellie> Hi!
[01:37] <ubunt1> how can i share from ubuntu server folder?
[01:37] <omegacenti> If I wanted to start being an activist  in the sense of getting Game publishers to try releasing linux binaries for games, where should I start?
[01:38] <comphappy> any ideas on how to combine 2 video files into one with the two sidebyside
[01:38] <drake4> I wonder what kind of hoops you have to jump through if you were to install ubuntu on one of these Asus EE PC 107 notebooks they are getting ready to sell?
[01:38] <h4wk0> Is there anything i can change so when i make a new user that i can 'mkdir public_html' - automattically
[01:38] <TaJMoX> bulio| you are familiar with linux - find your partition that contains your operating system and /boot - then get back to me
[01:38] <drake4> 2/4/8/16 GB SSD drives only
[01:38] <massctrl> hi, when enabling DMA on my ide disks mdadm isn't able to see the raid configuration,... Is this a known issue?  The raid config is extremely slow, this is caused by dma turned off, .... anyone an idea ?
[01:38] <nerdygirl_ellie> h4wk0: yes, Update the skeleton
[01:39] <Flannel> h4wk0: adding users copies /etc/skel, so just make public_html inside of that (with the correct permissions)
[01:39] <Herosblade> Rabid: nothing didt show my wireless card
[01:39] <Monteh> tried to install ubuntu, tried alt install disc, official cd, official dvd, using noapic, nolapic, irqpoll, always hangs just after pressing enter on the first menu, i tried leaving it for ages, but it never moved on, cant do alt +f1 either :( can anyone help me?
[01:39] <CJ_> buler: Im not on it at the moment as the only internet access is wireless. but it responds with ra0 link encap:Ethernet...inet6 addr: fe88::20e:2eff:fe9d:6725/64 scope:Link....UP BROADCASR RUNNING MULTICAST MTI:1500
[01:39] <Flannel> Monteh: have you checked the CDs for defects?
[01:39] <h4wk0> Flannel; Is there a tutorial somewhere you can point me to please - I just wonna make sure its right
[01:39] <Monteh> i have, 2 of the discs i tried are official ubuntu ones
[01:40] <CJ_> bulmer: inet isnt listed other than on eth0 and lo
[01:40] <Monteh> oh sorry i put name before reploy lol
[01:40] <Monteh> *reply
[01:40] <Flannel> h4wk0: er, no.  There's probably no tutorials out there, since it's pretty simple.  `man useradd` talks about /etc/skel (down by -m option)
[01:40] <CJ_> bulmer: Im not on it at the moment as the only internet access is wireless. but it responds with ra0 link encap:Ethernet...inet6 addr: fe88::20e:2eff:fe9d:6725/64 scope:Link....UP BROADCASR RUNNING MULTICAST MTI:1500
[01:40] <nerdygirl_ellie> hawk:  Not really, but you can look in the adduser documentation if you want to see it.
[01:40] <Monteh> Flannel: i have, 2 of the discs i tried are official ubuntu ones
[01:40] <Flannel> Monteh: still, have you checked those CDs for defects?
[01:40] <comphappy> he said yes
[01:40] <Monteh> Flannel: yes i did all of them
[01:40] <Herosblade> i have an eth0 and eth1 or what ever there called there but wired connections those things are built into my mobo for ethernet crap
[01:40] <mirak> is there a way to have hard drives with a fat32 partition to be mountable easily by a user ?
[01:40] <omegacenti> If I wanted to start being an activist  in the sense of getting Game publishers to try releasing linux binaries for games, where should I start?
[01:40] <mirak> automatically ?
[01:41] <Flannel> Monteh: and they all saidwhat?  Theyre good? theyre bad?
[01:41] <Monteh> Flannel: good
[01:41] <chip273> hello
[01:41] <nerdygirl_ellie> Monteh:  A couple of things you can try.  1.  Check the cd's for errors.  2.  Try another cd-rom drive.  3.  run memtest.
[01:41] <comphappy> have you run a MD5 test on the CD
[01:41] <jepp> if I start utorrent via WINE I get this error: http://www.ubuntuusers.de/paste/11581/
[01:41] <bulmer> CJ_ does your /etc/modprobe.d/aliases file disabled ipv4?
[01:41] <n2diy> omegacenti: ubuntu-marketing?
[01:42] <nerdygirl_ellie> Monteh:  I had that problem on a laptop, turns out the cd-rom drive was failing under load.
[01:42] <zeeeee> how do i find out what's the conflict in some package? (when i see "iBA" next to a package when doing aptitude search)
 id say get alot more people useing linux or wait till microsoft messes windows up so bad that over 40% of its users switch
[01:42] <CJ_> bulmer: but its running on eth0 and lo.... give me a mo illl have a look
[01:42] <PyroSama> is there a way to disable any form of logging in ubuntu?
[01:42] <Monteh> nerdygirl_ellie: hrm ill try memtest, do another cd check, and try another cd rom
[01:42] <omegacenti> Herosblade: How much would you say of the windows market has switched?
[01:42] <PyroSama> I want to reduce disk writes as much as posible
[01:42] <chip273> can someone tell me where to set the typematic rates and delays with numeric values instead of a no value showing slider.
[01:42] <nerdygirl_ellie> omegacenti:  Game publishers publish where the money is.  TO get more linux games, buy linux games.
[01:42] <Monteh> nerdygirl_ellie: even centos that used to install, now wont lol
[01:43] <comphappy> PyroSama, why dont you just run in mem then like livecd
[01:43] <omegacenti> nerdygirl_ellie: any idea what linux games there are?
[01:43] <Herosblade> omegacenti: not much id say maby under 10%
[01:43] <Aeos> does apt-get have a list function like yum?
[01:43] <nerdygirl_ellie> Monteh:  sounds really suspicious.
[01:43] <Flannel> Aeos: apt-cache search [stuff] 
[01:43] <nerdygirl_ellie> aeos: apt-cache search
[01:43] <PyroSama> comphappy: I am running off a solid state disk
[01:43] <Aeos> ok thanks
[01:43] <jrib> !apt > Aeos (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:43] <Herosblade> omegacenti: but alot of people dual boot wich id say is the best to use atm
[01:43] <comphappy> yes run in memory
[01:43] <comphappy> ramdisk
[01:43] <PyroSama> comphappy: I want full os functionality but reduced disk read writes to extend the life of my ssd
[01:44] <Monteh> nerdygirl_ellie: ok ill see what all that lot does, brb
[01:44] <nerdygirl_ellie> PyroSama:  Make a ramdisk and stick /var/log on it.
[01:44] <omegacenti> Herosblade: what do people normally do with a dual boot system? what do you do in linux that you don't do in windows?
[01:44] <comphappy> i have a SBC, i know what you are talking about
[01:44] <omegacenti> oops
[01:44] <Herosblade> omegacenti: i currently have linux installed on an external harddrive and that way i can run windows and linux on same system
[01:44] <TaJMoX> nerdygirl_ellie how do you tell it to send the log there?
[01:44] <comphappy> i would recommend reading a live cd guide and building a system like that
[01:44] <omegacenti> Herosblade: What do you do in one that you don't do in the other?
[01:44] <nerdygirl_ellie> I sole-boot linux.  Have since 6.10.
[01:44] <drake4> omegacenti, the port of Army Ops isnt bad
[01:45] <PyroSama> nerdygirl_ellie: I was hoping to avoid ram disk and disable logging so I dont have to sacrafice memory
[01:45] <CJ_> bulmer: there is an entry for ipv4 on line 4
[01:45] <nerdygirl_ellie> ahh.  I see.
[01:45] <chip273> can someone tell me where to set the typematic rates and delays with numeric values instead of a no-value-showing-slider.
[01:45] <omegacenti> drake4: I will take that into consideration :)
[01:45] <drake4> the guy that ported it, also ported a few other games
[01:45] <nerdygirl_ellie> pyro:  lemme see if I can change syslog's destination to /dev/null.
[01:45] <Herosblade> omegacenti: i run apps i cant get on linux especialy games well i will be id be useing linux more if i cloud get my stupid network card working
[01:45] <comphappy> PyroSama, read this it will help http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/7246
[01:45] <n2diy> chip273: take a look at the man page for loadkeys.
[01:45] <PyroSama> nerdygirl_ellie: Ok.
[01:45] <nerdygirl_ellie> /dev/null is an electron black hole.
[01:46] <bulmer> CJ_ its is odd that your eth0 have ipv4 but your other nic does not, am not sure if one can independently tell the nic driver to apply only on specific nic card
[01:46] <Herosblade> Omegacenti: do you have xfire or gfire? or wine?
[01:46] <omegacenti> Herosblade: Whats your net card not doing. detailed version :)
[01:46] <PyroSama> nerdygirl_ellie: Can I put my roomate in it?
[01:46] <Aeos> one last question, when ubuntu was installed it allowed me to create a user but not set the root password. DOes it default to something?
[01:46] <omegacenti> Herosblade: I am trying to set up wine, having a few issues though
[01:46] <Herosblade> omegacenti: well linux doesnt even detect it
[01:46] <nerdygirl_ellie> If you can pipe him through a shell, yes.
[01:46] <TaJMoX> nerdygirl_ellie where do i change syslog's destination?
[01:46] <comphappy> just use mount
[01:46] <Herosblade> omegacenti and the wiki says that it works out of the box
[01:46] <omegacenti> Herosblade: Windows does yes?
[01:47] <PyroSama> comphappy: I dont want to run a live cd though or any thing requiring ram disk
[01:47] <comphappy> mount /dev/null /var/log
[01:47] <Herosblade> omegacenti: works fine on windows im useing it on windows right now
[01:47] <comphappy> well the data has to go somewhere
[01:47] <PyroSama> nerdygirl_ellie: I got a new usb blender that might do the trick. I'll let you know the results.
[01:47] <omegacenti> Herosblade: Alright what is the exact brand/model number of the net card?
[01:47] <chip273> n2diy: that is of no help, no such setting in there
[01:47] <nerdygirl_ellie> pyro:  you can edit /etc/syslog.conf and change all the destinations to /dev/null
[01:47] <Herosblade> its a netgear pci wg311v2
[01:47] <nerdygirl_ellie> Heros: wireless or wired.
[01:47] <n2diy> chip273: ok, maybe in .bashrc?
[01:48] <Herosblade> http://kbserver.netgear.com/products/WG311v2.asp
[01:48] <Herosblade> wireless
[01:48] <PyroSama> nerdygirl_ellie: Thank you
[01:48] <nerdygirl_ellie> Any time.
[01:48] <omegacenti> Herosblade: How did you istall ubuntu?
[01:48] <Herosblade> i tryed the live cd
[01:48] <comphappy> i would highly recommend mounting /var/ in a ramdisk, that way all of the locks will not be writen to disk, make it like 10MB
[01:48] <Herosblade> but it didt work will with my external drive
[01:48] <Herosblade> omegacenti: so i used the text installer
[01:49] <nerdygirl_ellie> Heros:  Most wireless cards can be made to work with "ndiswrapper" that allows linux to use the windows driver.
[01:49] <TaJMoX> comphappy : my /var is like 5gb
[01:49] <Herosblade> hum
[01:49] <omegacenti> Herosblade: Its easier to see that you responsed to me if you auto complete my name. I have it set up so it produces a sound when someone speaks to me directly.
[01:49] <aamy> my first day with ubuntu today, have been trying for several hours now tinkering with the xorg.conf file to get all my monitors working. Two are working....third one is not working, any help at all will be appreciated!
[01:49] <Aeos> or is the default install of ubuntu not designed to allow access to the root user
[01:49] <omegacenti> Herosblade: so you tried an external harddrive install
[01:49] <Herosblade> how do i do auto complete?
[01:49] <comphappy> well if you pay attention to what goes into var, you can get it way down
[01:49] <IndyGunFreak> aamy: three monitors?.. wow..lol, i had a heckuva time with dual monitors... good luck
[01:49] <nerdygirl_ellie> Heros:  It's a pain in the arse to walk someone through,
[01:49] <n2diy> Herosblade: with the tab key.
[01:50] <omegacenti> Herosblade: depends on what you are using but try typing ome then hitting <tab>
[01:50] <PyroSama> nerdygirl_ellie: Should I change every thing in there to /dev/null or select things?
[01:50] <CJ_> bulmer: I have added the interface to /etc/network/interfaces seeing ra0 isnt a tyical name for an interface....and the others have 'iface {if name} inet dhcp' under 'auto {if name}'
[01:50] <nerdygirl_ellie> Pyro:  I'd just make it /dev/null, but feel free to experiment.
[01:50] <Herosblade> omegacenti: well i have it set so i toss a floppy in and that brings up grub
[01:50] <omegacenti> Herosblade: I type her and then hit tab and you name pops up
[01:50] <comphappy> Pyro you need to watch what you move to /dev/null or soon locks wont work and then you are in trouble
[01:50] <aamy> IndyGunFreak: you think it's not possible to run three monitors with ubuntu?
[01:50] <nerdygirl_ellie> aamy:  what kind of video card(s)
[01:50] <omegacenti> Herosblade: you using super grub disk?
[01:50] <Pupeno> how do I capture packets for latter inspection is wireshark?
[01:50] <chasmarang> is there a way to fix sound recorder in fiesty
[01:51] <Herosblade> omegacenti: no in the text installer you can choose where to install i put it in /dev/fd0
[01:51] <omegacenti> comphappy: What is a lock?
[01:51] <nerdygirl_ellie> Pupeno:  From the command line, tcpdump -s0 -wsomefile.cap
[01:51] <aamy> nerdygirl_ellie: NVidia GeForce 5500 (AGP) with two monitors hooked up and 5200 with one monitor
[01:51] <omegacenti> Herosblade: Ah. Okay.
[01:51] <Herosblade> omegacenti: so basicly if floppy isnt in i boot directly to windows
[01:51] <nerdygirl_ellie> Pupeno: from inside wireshark, Click the new capture button
[01:51] <omegacenti> Herosblade: So the live CD wouldn't detect your external harddrive?
[01:51] <PyroSama> nerdygirl_ellie: Now if your not too busy :D any idea how to make backspace go back one page in FF? :P
[01:51] <aamy> nerdygirl_ellie: the 5500 is working correctly with two monitors, can't get the other one to come online
[01:51] <Pupeno> nerdygirl_ellie: thanks.

[01:52] <Herosblade> omegacenti: actualy no the live cd wouldent let me choose where to install grub
[01:52] <comphappy> omegacenti it keeps devices or programs from beeing accessed by multiple programs, think of is as two people using the same keyboard
[01:52] <vbabiy> hey guys how can find out what kind of video card a computer has using the terminal
[01:52] <aamy> nerdygirl_ellie: yes, i installed it. that's how I got the second monitor to work. (with twinview)

[01:53] <omegacenti> Herosblade: I understand, I am new to linux and I am trying to dive in on helping people so that I may learn more.
[01:53] <Herosblade> omegacenti: same
[01:53] <nerdygirl_ellie> aamy.  I use it and it "just works"!
[01:53] <Herosblade> omegacenti: you have email? or aim/xfire

[01:54] <Herosblade> dual moniter labtop
[01:54] <Herosblade> wtf
[01:54] <nerdygirl_ellie> jamie:  do you know the print server IP?
[01:54] <omegacenti> Herosblade: However, it seems that your problem is a bit drastic and I am falling behind on how to help you. I will keep trying though. I suggest you keep asking the question when your screen no longer displays your question. That is what I often do.
[01:54] <nerdygirl_ellie> Laptop lcd + external.
[01:54] <comphappy> well i have dual projectors on my laptop  (justkidding)
[01:54] <erpo> I need to stop Ubuntu 7.04 from upgrading the kernel in any way. How can I accomplish this?
[01:54] <chasmarang> hello - any one know what to do about sound recorder
[01:54] <nerdygirl_ellie> That would be a trick.
[01:54] <PyroSama> Herosblade: yeah most laptops have external monitor support and some allow extended / multi desktop rather than just cloning
[01:54] <Bixby> hey my Ubuntu is giving me "the nevest kernel headers" the version 2.6.20-16 but I've alrery upgraded to that version. What shouls I do?
[01:54] <omegacenti> Herosblade: I apologize but I often dont give out information like that. I might if I get to know you better :)
[01:54] <jamie> nerdygirl_ellieno this is the problem any ideas
[01:55] <nerdygirl_ellie> why erpo?
[01:55] <TMM> omegacenti: bad advice, there might be a lot of noise, and that might be 2 times a minute... good way to get banned
[01:55] <LjL> Bixby: upgrade again. it's a new subrelease
[01:55] <PyroSama> Herosblade: in my case I also have tv out and can run 3 displays :D
[01:55] <LjL> !pinning > erpo    (erpo, see the private message from Ubotu)
[01:55] <aamy> nerdygirl_ellie: okay, i installed the package. how do I run it from the command line?
[01:55] <Shin_Gouki> lol-> called  a spammer becuase i have java script turned off XD
[01:55] <omegacenti> TMM: I apologize, could you help me improve that advice then? What is appropriate?
[01:55] <nerdygirl_ellie> jamie:  missed your question, can you pm it to me?
[01:55] <Herosblade> omegacenti: k np
[01:55] <TMM> omegacenti: 'once every 20 minutes' is acceptable I think
[01:55] <cwillu> I say termcap
[01:55] <nerdygirl_ellie> Oh cool!  (have to try that)
[01:55] <omegacenti> TMM 20 minutes?!
[01:55] <nerdygirl_ellie> !repeat
[01:55] <cwillu> you say...
[01:55] <ubotu> Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[01:56] <PyroSama> Well thank you every one for your help and I hope that the help I gave you didnt cause you any issues :P time for some babylong 5 and some dinner
[01:56] <null> My PCMCIA Wifi card wasn't detected at install.  What can I do?
[01:56] <Bixby> LjL: Do I have to mess whit my Nvidia drivers again?
[01:56] <Herosblade> omegacenti: i have 2 accounts for email,aim, and other crap
[01:56] <Herosblade> omegacenti: so im usualy fine
[01:56] <omegacenti> Herosblade: I probably need to set something up like that.
[01:56] <comphappy> null: what chipset is it
[01:56] <aamy> nerdygirl_ellie: i installed the nvidia settings package, how do i run it from the command line?
[01:56] <PyroSama> *babylon
[01:56] <Herosblade> omegacenti: lol
[01:56] <comphappy> broadcom?
[01:56] <null> Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8185 IEEE 802.11a/b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 20)
[01:56] <FerrariDreams> w00t ! :D
[01:56] <null> It worked in XUBUNTU
[01:56] <TMM> omegacenti: yeah, you'll just annoy people if you ask the question too many times, people might be too busy or simple don't know. if you ask too often people who don't know the answer will have read the question 20 times, and people who DO know the answer will get annoyed
[01:56] <LjL> Bixby: shouldn't have to, as it's still 2.6.20-16, not an ABI change. but if you're not using the drivers from the repos, i can't really guarantee it
[01:56] <nerdygirl_ellie> aamy: alt-f2 for a "run" prompt, then nvidia-settings
[01:56] <null> but my hdd took a crap and i installed ubuntu today
[01:57] <PyroSama> null: I'll trade my broadcom 4318 for it :D
[01:57] <nerdygirl_ellie> aamy: then "ok"
[01:57] <erpo> nerdygirl_ellie: I use vmware server which has binary kernel modules. When the kernel gets updated, I have to rebuild the module from source, which I want to avoid.
[01:57] <Rex_> does anyone know what package contains glib-2.0? I have been looking for an hour and I need it for dependencies.
[01:57] <null> PyroSama, I had one.  Traded my roommate who runs XP :)
[01:57] <PyroSama> null: mine works out of the box untill you actually attempt to use it ;)
[01:57] <jrib> Rex_: what are you compiling?
[01:57] <Rex_> Awn
[01:57] <comphappy> glib, i thouhgt it was gclib
[01:57] <TMM> erpo: you can install vmware server from the canonical commercial repository and it'll all be done automagically for you
[01:57] <omegacenti> TMM: However, I find it usually works when I ask the question on the out of sight out of mind method. when I no longer see the question and ask, it often gets addressed. I will try and do it less often in the future.
[01:57] <Rex_> jrib: sorry... Awn
[01:57] <Bixby> I am using the display driver kernel that updatet to the last patch
[01:57] <nerdygirl_ellie> erpo:  If you install the vmware server package from commercial... yep, what he said.
[01:57] <chasmarang> hello - Did any one know that sound recorder doesn't record?
[01:57] <jrib> Rex_: you need the -dev package: libglib2.0-dev
[01:57] <erpo> TMM: commercial == $?
[01:58] <jrib> !compile > Rex_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:58] <TMM> erpo: no, it is just commercial software, won't cost you a penny
[01:58] <Shin_Gouki> hi there i try to install free nx by this guide:http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2743152,  but when i try this step : sudo /usr/NX/scripts/setup/nxserver --install debian i get this error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24918/
[01:58] <omegacenti> erpo: not always. For instance vmware is commercial however it is free for use with a supplied serial code.
[01:58] <PyroSama> null: I actually got mine working flawlessly on another ubuntu install but dont remember what I did to get it to work as well as it did. Now that Im using a new drive I'm sitting here with a cable sticking out of my lappy
[01:58] <Bixby> well. in trying it out, let's see what happens :)
[01:58] <TMM> omegacenti: good :) annoying the people that are supposed to help you is generally a bad idea :P
[01:58] <PyroSama> null: but the 4318's do work well once you get them to work
[01:58] <erpo> TMM: Where can I find out more about the canonical commercial repository.
[01:58] <TMM> erpo: google? :)
[01:58] <omegacenti> TMM: I know. Thankyou very much for your advice. I will consider it :)
[01:58] <null> PyroSama, I had it working with ndiswrapper, but it broke after reboot and i couldn't fix it
[01:58] <PyroSama> Ah
[01:59] <TMM> erpo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu
[01:59] <Rex_> jrib: I installed that thinking that was it... still got a compile error. :( I will go read the PM now... thanks.
[01:59] <PyroSama> If you togle the up down state it usually helps when it does that
[01:59] <Herosblade> omegacenti: hey do you know anything on ndiswrapper
[01:59] <null> So, PyroSama, is there a network-card-detection-script i can run?
[01:59] <erpo> TMM: Thanks.
[01:59] <chasmarang> hello - Did any one know that sound recorder doesn't record?
[01:59] <jrib> Rex_: feel free to pastebin the error and link to it
[01:59] <TMM> erpo: np
[01:59] <PyroSama> Also modify the txpower and it works better
[01:59] <jamie> nerdygirl_ellie: I got it I managed to make it print the conf. Thanks
[01:59] <omegacenti> Herosblade: ndiswrapper is supposed to help with network cards, you might want to try it
[01:59] <omegacenti> !ndiswrapper | Herosblade
[01:59] <ubotu> Herosblade: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[01:59] <PyroSama> null: I dont know :P
[01:59] <nerdygirl_ellie> erpo:  if you prefer otherwise, you can tell it not to upgrade that package by tiddling about in the apt.conf.d.  Or you can find the kernel in synaptic and "lock version"
[01:59] <Yns> hi all
[01:59] <n2diy> Rex_: maybe in build-essentials?
[01:59] <Yns> kubuntu rulz
[01:59] <TMM> omegacenti: ndiswrapper is only userful for network cards which do not have a native linux driver :)
[02:00] <Yns> gnome su
[02:00] <Yns> sux
[02:00] <jrib> !offtopic | Yns
[02:00] <ubotu> Yns: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:00] <SR71-Blackbird> anyone tried sauerbraten?
[02:00] <Bixby> OK, reboot, thumbs up!
[02:00] <omegacenti> TMM: Hmm. Well than might you address Herosblade's situation with his external not installing and his supported network card not working under ubuntu?
[02:00] <Shin_Gouki> i need help with a free Nx install could anyone help me?
[02:00] <TMM> Herosblade: ndiswrapper is a tool to load wireless network card drivers for devices that do not have linux drivers, it emulates the windows OS a bit and it'll allow linux to use the closed source windows drivers.
[02:00] <omegacenti> Herosblade: How new is the Ubuntu live CD? What release is it?
[02:00] <SR71-Blackbird> i just get the blank screen.. everything in the game  seems to be working
[02:01] <TMM> Herosblade: what kind of hardware do you have?
[02:01] <Herosblade> omegacenti: im useing feisty text
[02:01] <chasmarang> hello TTM - any one know what to do about sound recorder
[02:01] <n2diy> omegacenti: 7.04 stands for April, 2007
[02:01] <Herosblade> TMM: i got a pci wireless network card its a netgear wg311v2
[02:01] <nerdygirl_ellie> chas:  what's broke on it?
[02:01] <omegacenti> TMM: His network card is a netgear wg311v2 and is trying to install on an external harddrive
[02:01] <cwillu> what'd be a good irc channel to ask a telnet question?
[02:01] <chasmarang> wont record
[02:01] <jrib> chasmarang: it's broken
[02:02] <chasmarang> why
[02:02] <jrib> chasmarang: I'm pretty sure I've seen a but about it on bugs.ubuntu.com
[02:02] <n2diy> cwillu: #linux
[02:02] <nerdygirl_ellie> Chas:  Audacity works well.  Try it instead.
[02:02] <cr_> I need a driver for GeForce7950 somebody help? ubuntu 7.04
[02:02] <chasmarang> no nothing
[02:02] <Herosblade> nerdygirl_ellie: its not even detected by linux
[02:03] <TMM> Herosblade: try #acx100, they might be able to help
[02:03] <omegacenti> TMM: What is acx100?
[02:03] <nerdygirl_ellie> Heros:  Lspci and lsusb don't see it at all?
[02:03] <n2diy> nerdygirl_ellie: don't you have tab completion, I was looking all over for "Chas".
[02:03] <Rex_> jrib and n2diy: it looks like it was build-essentials. Thanks for your help.
[02:03] <Shin_Gouki> i need help a free nx setup, anyone?
[02:03] <chasmarang> both sound recorder and audacity wont record
[02:03] <TMM> Herosblade: omegacenti: that's the name of the texas instruments wireless chip used on your pci card.
[02:03] <n2diy> Rex_: Glad you found it.
[02:04] <nerdygirl_ellie> n2diy:  I don't think so, I use gaim.
[02:04] <omegacenti> TMM: ah. Thanks again :)
[02:04] <cr_> I need a driver for GeForce7950 somebody help? ubuntu 7.04
[02:04] <jrib> !nvidia > cr_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:04] <omegacenti> TMM: very informative.
[02:04] <CJ_> bulmer: you still there>
[02:04] <n2diy> nerdygirl_ellie:  roger that.
[02:04] <nerdygirl_ellie> cr_: nvidia-legacy or nvidia-glx?
[02:04] <Herosblade> tmm: i tryed that but im very new to linux and cloudent figure that out
[02:04] <TMM> Herosblade: omegacenti: that is also the name of the linux native driver that you could use, problem is, it needs firmware and I can't be sure it is included with ubuntu default. I would recommend you try and boot the DESKTOP live cd
[02:05] <TMM> Herosblade: no problem, we are here to help :)
[02:05] <TMM> Herosblade: your first step really should be trying to boot the normal i386 live/install cd
[02:05] <cr_> tglx nerdy_girl ellie i think
[02:05] <n2diy> nerdygirl_ellie:  what happens if you type n2 and then hit the tab key?
[02:05] <omegacenti> TMM: I think his problem with the desktop one is that it wont allow him to choose where to install grub and it messed up hiw MBR enough that wg311v2e had to fix it in windows.
[02:05] <symbiote> hey im back.
[02:05] <Herosblade> TMM: omegacenti: heres what happend
[02:05] <omegacenti> TMM: weird, replace wg11v2e with Herosblade :)
[02:06] <symbiote> i still got taht same problem taht i thought wine was causing..
[02:06] <Rex_> argh... still not working. http://www.pastebin.ca/554056
[02:06] <TMM> omegacenti: Herosblade: I believe that if you press 'advanced' at the last screen of the installer it'll allow you to choose where to install grub
[02:06] <Herosblade> TMM: omegacenti: i installed ubuntu with live cd it messed up my mbr so i did /fixmbr from windows install then i formatted my external
[02:06] <nerdygirl_ellie> afk:kids
[02:07] <symbiote> ok when i first start ubuntu everythign works fine.. but if I log off then log back on everything is messed.. when i open a window its blank.. and stays liek taht.. I cant do anything..
[02:07] <omegacenti> Herosblade: did you see the comment about advanced at the end if install?
[02:07] <Herosblade> TMM: omegacenti: so then i reinstaled with text after doing
[02:07] <Herosblade> omegacenti: not sure
[02:07] <aca> after i recompile my kernel, do i just apt-get install nvidia-glx to reinstall the drivers?
[02:07] <aca> or is there more too it?
[02:07] <jrib> Rex_: apt-cache policy libglib2.0-dev
[02:07] <aca> do i have to wate for after a reboot?
[02:07] <aca> wati
[02:07] <TMM> Herosblade: could you try just booting the livecd and tell me if the wireless card words? you can check by right-clicking the little screen in the top right of the screen on the panel
[02:07] <omegacenti> Herosblade: read TMM's commment about the advanced at the last screen of the installer. it might allow you to choose where to put grub
[02:07] <daviddd> I messed up my volume control. Now i can't record any sound with my mic. How do i restore my settings?
[02:08] <TMM> Herosblade: have you already installed the text-version?
[02:08] <Rex_> jrib: run that in terminal and try again?
[02:08] <jrib> Rex_: show me the output
[02:08] <Herosblade> TMM: yea
[02:08] <TMM> Herosblade: ok, and then the wireless card is not functional?
[02:08] <Herosblade> TMM: correct
[02:08] <aca> after i recompile my kernel, do i just apt-get install nvidia-glx to reinstall the drivers or is there more to it?
[02:08] <Herosblade> TMM: works fine on windows
[02:09] <Rex_> jrib: http://www.pastebin.ca/554059
[02:09] <omegacenti> Any really good guide on experiencing all the aspects of linux from start (basic command line) to finish? (compiling own kernals, becoming expert enough to help with most issues)
[02:09] <jrib> Rex_: sudo aptitude install libglib2.0-dev
[02:10] <TMM> Herosblade: well, manufacturers of wireless hardware aren't always a big fan of that whole 'consumer choice' thing, and don't make drivers for linux, and even don't want to tell anyone how their sacred chip works, so noone else can make drivers for it. it really isn't linux's or ubuntu's fault
[02:10] <symbiote> the problem happened after I updated everything in ubuntu.. tehres 2 ubuntus now in GRUB.. one is kernal xxxxx.15 and one is xxxxx.16 i dont remember the exact numbers
[02:10] <n2diy> omegacenti: http://rute.2038bug.com/rute.html.gz
[02:10] <Shin_Gouki> hello! i really need help with free Nx setup can plz anyone help me?
[02:10] <Herosblade> TMM i know that
[02:10] <Flannel> symbiote: right.  That's not a problem, that's normal.
[02:10] <daviddd> I messed up my volume control. Now i can't record any sound with my mic. How do i restore the default settings?
[02:11] <omegacenti> n2diy: WOW! is that guide current? if it is... just... wow.
[02:11] <symbiote> yeah but when i logout then log back in all my apps dont work.. if i open nautalis it shows nothing but a white blank screen in teh window
[02:11] <Herosblade> TMM: its just i cant afford to buy a new network card im only 15 and nobody in this god forsaken town hires
[02:11] <Rex_> jrib: sweet... I looked high and low for that package... now there is another dep prob... http://www.pastebin.ca/554060
[02:11] <n2diy> omegacenti: it is dated, but it is still useful.
[02:11] <mx-zoom> aca: are you compiling your own kernel?
[02:11] <omegacenti> n2diy: friggin amazing. Thankyou so much. That is going to be a wonderful read :)
[02:11] <aca> yes
[02:12] <TMM> Herosblade: according to the acx100 wiki, it should just work out of the box
[02:12] <Flannel> symbiote: Does booting to the old kernel work better?
[02:12] <aca> mx-zoom; es
[02:12] <TMM> Herosblade: are you booted in ubuntu right now?
[02:12] <aca> mx-zoom: yes
[02:12] <jrib> Rex_: now you do the same thing, run:  apt-cache search -n lib gtk dev   and you read the results and choose the appropriate one to install
[02:12] <aca> heh
[02:12] <mx-zoom> aca: then nvidia-glx will not work. I think it is precompiled for ubuntu's kernel
[02:12] <n2diy> omegacenti: yep, I keep it at the top of my bookmarks.
[02:12] <symbiote> i just tryed it and no.. same problem happens if i log out/in
[02:12] <mx-zoom> aca: you might have to use nvidia's installer
[02:12] <Rex_> jrib: cool.. thanks. I learned something new. :)
[02:12] <aca> ah ok
[02:12] <aca> thanks
[02:12] <omegacenti> n2diy: might take a few weeks but still. Thanks!
[02:12] <Shin_Gouki> When i try to run my free nx server i get the message: ssh: conenct to host 127.0.0.1 port 22 conection refused, nx server stopped, how do i solve this?
[02:12] <Flannel> symbiote: then it's not a kernel specific issue.  Mustve been something else in the upgrade that broke something
[02:12] <symbiote> it was fine b4 i updated though..
[02:12] <n2diy> omegacenti: weeks!? :)
[02:12] <Herosblade> TMM: no im on winodws atm
[02:13] <symbiote> yeah but how do i find out?
[02:13] <TMM> Herosblade: that makes it a bit difficult to help you I'm afraid :(
[02:13] <jrib> Rex_: libgtk2.0-dev - Development files for the GTK+ library  would be the right one for that, the others should be straightforward
[02:13] <omegacenti> Does Ubuntu resemble redhat or debian in terms of common commands and where things are located in the file systems?
[02:13] <Herosblade> TMM: i know but i cant accsess irc any other way
[02:13] <symbiote> do i gotta re-install.. i just got everythign all customized teh way i like it :D
[02:13] <mx-zoom> aca: same thing for everylthing in the restricted modules: wifi, madwidfi etc
[02:13] <TMM> Herosblade: no way to temporarily use a wired connection?
[02:13] <Flannel> omegacenti: Ubuntu is based on debian
[02:13] <Herosblade> omegacenti: ubuntu is based off of debian
[02:13] <omegacenti> Flannel: thanks :) you too Herosblade
[02:14] <aca> mx-zoom: is there a way i can see a list of what i've got installed from the restricted modules?
[02:14] <Herosblade> TMM: not unless i take a gun to my head or my friend lets me drag my computer to his house and hook it up there
[02:14] <mx-zoom> aca: I believe there's a description in synaptic
[02:14] <Pelo> aca, open synaptic and play around with the filters
[02:14] <Herosblade> TMM: its wireless or no internet
[02:14] <TMM> Herosblade: euh... you only have wireless?
[02:14] <cr_> I cannot deal with this card GeForce7950GT  especially with resolution!
[02:14] <Rex_> jrib: sweet... looks like the install of libgtk2.0-dev will solve the other deps.
[02:14] <Deinumite> is there an easy way to boot from a .iso image on your harddrive? (ie install a linux distro without burning a cd"
[02:14] <mx-zoom> aca: other than that I have no idea
[02:14] <daviddd> I messed up my volume control. Now i can't record any sound with my mic. How do i restore my settings? What file do I delete?
[02:15] <Shin_Gouki> hello! how do i install ssh access on my xubuntu?
[02:15] <omegacenti> Hmm LPI institute still around?
[02:15] <Flannel> Shin_Gouki: install openssh-server
[02:15] <Pelo> daviddd,  don'T delete anyting just review the settings in alsamixer
[02:15] <TMM> Herosblade: hum, in that case, the only thing I can tell you is a) are you sure you installed ubuntu feisty b) are you sure it is that netgear you said it was c) do you need wpa? d) does anything show up if you type 'iwconfig'
[02:15] <Aeos> does anyone use an LCD TV as their monitor?
[02:15] <Pelo> Shin_Gouki, I belive there are instrucitons in here  http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty
[02:15] <omegacenti> Can you install Deb packages on Ubuntu?
[02:16] <mx-zoom> omegacenti: at great great risk
[02:16] <IndyGunFreak> omegacenti: i think so, but not 100% sure.
[02:16] <TMM> omegacenti: ghe, I would hope so
[02:16] <symbiote> i gotta re-install ubuntu :( at least my intuition tells me Im fucked and gotta start over.. Im thinking nautalis got messed up somehow.. I dont think u can uninstall and re-install it.. or can u?
[02:16] <Pelo> daviddd, I don'T take private msg  please talk to me in the channel
[02:16] <Flannel> omegacenti: yes, ubuntu uses .deb packages.  However, debian and ubuntu packages aren't necessarily compatable
[02:16] <aca> ok
[02:16] <IndyGunFreak> as long as you have all the dependencies, etc, resolved
[02:16] <aca> thanks for my help
[02:16] <Flannel> symbiote: of course you can
[02:16] <Herosblade> TMM: i got latest version 7.04 fiesy from ubuntu.com,dont use wpa or wep,its correct card and what was that otherthing
[02:16] <omegacenti> Flannel: would it interfere with reading the rute manual?
[02:16] <cr_> I cannot deal with this card GeForce7950GT  especially with resolution!
[02:16] <daviddd> Pelo: i tried all kinds of combination and I still couldn't get it to work
[02:17] <IndyGunFreak> symbiote: if you think nautilus is borked, uninstall it, and install thunar.
[02:17] <TMM> Herosblade: ok, do you know anything about using linux?
[02:17] <Aeos> I am using my sharp Aquose as a monitor, the picture is crisp and clear, but its being distorted by scan lines
[02:17] <IndyGunFreak> sudo apt-get remove nautilus, sudo apt-get install thunar
[02:17] <Herosblade> TMM: not much
[02:17] <TMM> Herosblade: that was not an insult :) I just need to know your level :)
[02:17] <PCGenie> hello, my Port 80 closed and I am trying to open it, how do I do that?
[02:17] <Pelo> daviddd, that was the best I could personnaly offer,  if no one else here can provide information try searching the forum
[02:17] <symbiote> ok mabey illt ry that.. but its not just nautalis taht is messed up.. if i right click on teh desktop and select change screen saver taht shows me an empty blank window too.. actually all of thsoe kind of screens are like tahta fter i relogin
[02:17] <Herosblade> TMM: just what iv found from research on it
[02:17] <mx-zoom> od
[02:17] <Herosblade> TMM: and some of the help files
[02:17] <Flannel> omegacenti: What?  Uh, I have no idea.  Really the biggest difference is package names for dependencies.  Although there are some other incompatabilities as well
[02:17] <TMM> Herosblade: if I ask you to get me the output of 'lspci' 'iwconfig' and 'dmesg' what would you say? :)
[02:17] <IndyGunFreak> symbiote: well what caused it you think?
[02:17] <symbiote> me :( lol
[02:18] <daviddd> Pelo: How do I turn on something in alsamixer?
[02:18] <symbiote> im still new to linux.. only had it about 2 weeks..
[02:18] <omegacenti> Flannel: this guide: http://rute.2038bug.com/node4.html.gz#SECTION00410000000000000000 need something like .deb's or .rpm's
[02:18] <omegacenti> Flannel: just wondering if this guide will be useful in learning more about linux even though using an ubuntu installation.
[02:18] <mx-zoom> symbiote: before reinstalling. uninstall nautilus, remove ~/.nautilus and install it again
[02:18] <Pelo> daviddd,   you can navigate alsamixer with  tab , arrows , + -  and enter
[02:18] <TMM> omegacenti: ubuntu is .deb based, all software initially on ubuntu is installed through .deb files
[02:18] <Herosblade> TMM: id say hold on 5min let me get on linux and type them in and copy the results
[02:19] <omegacenti> TMM: so you think this guide will still be compatible with my expereince on ubuntu?
[02:19] <TMM> Herosblade: huzzah! :) do you know you can put the output of a command to a file with a ">"?
[02:19] <cp84> how can i burn a mp3 cd
[02:19] <Herosblade> !dmesg
[02:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dmesg - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:19] <cp84> anyone ahve any ideas?
[02:19] <TMM> Herosblade: so ifconfig > ifconfig.txt
[02:19] <Flannel> omegacenti: We use the deb system in Ubuntu, that book appears to be geared towards rpm based distros.  So probably not too useful for most things
[02:19] <qual> why the hell is chmod 777 not giving me access to write to my usb disk
[02:19] <symbiote> there was something liek 48 packages installed on teh update.. so it could be any of them.. is tehre anyway to backtrack an upgrade liek that? or see which thigns were installed?
[02:19] <Lidenbrock> =p
[02:19] <TMM> Herosblade: you can then put ifconfig.txt on a memory stick, or copy it to your windows partition
[02:19] <Herosblade> TMM: yea gimme a sec
[02:19] <Rex_> jrib: thanks for your help.. I gotta get to work... have a good one.
[02:19] <Pelo> cp84,  as mp3 or as music files playable in a regular player ?
[02:20] <daviddd> Pelo: Should it be the Mic?
[02:20] <jrib> Rex_: np, you too
[02:20] <n2diy> omegacenti: the Rute manual is Red Hat based, so it focuses on RPMS, not debs, but RPMs can be converted to debs, with Alien.
[02:20] <omegacenti> Flannel: hmm. do you offer another comprehensive guide to become much more knowlegable with Ubuntu?
[02:20] <TMM> Herosblade: great, you get me those files, and I might be able to help
[02:20] <symbiote> taht woudl help alot if I coudl justs ee what was installed last
[02:20] <cp84> mp3
[02:20] <Herosblade> TMM: do those commands just work by typeing em?
[02:20] <Pelo> daviddd, what do you think ?
[02:20] <Deinumite> is there an easy way to boot from a .iso image on your harddrive? (ie install a linux distro without burning a cd"
[02:20] <Pelo> cp84, use gnomebaker
[02:20] <Flannel> !install | Deinumite
[02:20] <ubotu> Deinumite: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[02:20] <omegacenti> n2diy: any other comprehensive guides?
[02:20] <cp84> pelo and then what i download that
[02:20] <cp84> i dunno
[02:20] <daviddd> Pelo: I honestly don't know...the Mic is[off]  and I couldn't turn it on.
[02:20] <mx-zoom> symbiote: what did you use to update your system?
[02:20] <Pelo> cp84,  sudo apt-get install gnomebaker
[02:20] <TMM> omegacenti: you can never have too much knowledge, there's only one way to go from n00b to 1337 :) that is time, and fixing fuckups :P
[02:21] <IndyGunFreak> Deinumite: there is, but burning a cd is a lot easier.

[02:21] <Flannel> !language | TMM
[02:21] <ubotu> TMM: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[02:21] <n2diy> omegacenti: nothing I've come across that compares to Rute.
[02:21] <omegacenti> TMM:  lol :) I will try and keep that in mind :)
[02:21] <Pelo> daviddd, hmm ,  I assume you need to turn it on ,  give me a mminute to find out how
[02:21] <omegacenti> n2diy: I will read it with caution then. Thankyou :)
[02:21] <Bixby> cp84: You also might wanto to check out Brasero
[02:21] <cp84> i have gnome baker

[02:21] <macabro23> Hi. Anyone using a clevo D700T laptop?
[02:21] <cp84> and none i see where i can burn mp3
[02:21] <omegacenti> Does the channel mind if I ask questins that dont seem to work in Ubuntu that are described in Rute?
[02:21] <mx-zoom> symbiote: if you want logs, either use aptitude ir synaptic. I don't know if apt keeps logs
[02:22] <Bixby> don't know if somewone alreary sead it
[02:22] <mx-zoom> symbiote: the other ones do
[02:22] <jrib> omegacenti: rute is excellent.  For deb-specific stuff go with the debian manuals and howto's.  tldp.org has good stuff too
[02:22] <n2diy> omegacenti: Yes, and also, RH uses lilo as the boot loader, not grub. But 95% of stuff in there is still relevant.
[02:22] <symbiote> ill do a google search hehe
[02:22] <Pelo> daviddd, just you can use the "M" key to toggle mute on/off  and the arrows to raise and lower the volume
[02:22] <omegacenti> jrib: What exactly do you mean go with the debian manuals and howto's?
[02:22] <Flannel> mx-zoom, symbiote, /var/log/dpkg.log
[02:22] <cp84> bixby
[02:23] <Flannel> mx-zoom, symbiote, those are for aptitude, synaptic, adept, apt-get, etc
[02:23] <omegacenti> jrib: thanks on a new website filled with info! ^_^ tldp looks great.
[02:23] <cp84> or anyone know what i need to do inside to burn the mp3?
[02:23] <jrib> omegacenti: after you learn the basics and are comfortable, http://www.debian.org/doc/
[02:23] <ihmSelbst> hi
[02:23] <mx-zoom> Flannel: you learn something new everyday :P
[02:23] <Bixby> yes cp84
[02:23] <cp84> ?
[02:23] <cp84> bixby  priv?
[02:23] <omegacenti> Excellent advice everyone. Thankyou so very much. :) I now know why Linux thrives. Community. ^_^
[02:24] <CJ_> bulmer:  I managed to get it working. it was finding the command to restart the network system using the command '/etc/init.d/networking restart'
[02:24] <daviddd> Pelo: After Mic is on, there's still no sound
[02:24] <GrueTamer> omegacenti: i have one more thing to add, dont know if anyone said it yet, but a good place to look for howtos is the gentoo wiki.  theres stuff on there that should help you
[02:24] <Pelo> daviddd, check in the forum  www.ubuntuforums.com
[02:24] <omegacenti> GrueTamer: I will keep that in mind. thanks!
[02:25] <Bixby> cp84 send me a private msg, I don't know hot do that whit x-chat
[02:25] <Bixby> :)

[02:25] <omegacenti> I hope my attitude is appropriate. :)
[02:25] <ihmSelbst> i try to install feisty amd64 but he don't boot. when i boot with acpi=off and without 'quiet' i can read text for 3 seconds. then the screen is black. i can start the thrid position in grub root (0,0)  or something.. Does exist anywhere logfiles from the boot process ??
[02:25] <omegacenti> afk, reading rute and experimenting.
[02:26] <Pelo> omegacenti, we can't stand ppl who keep saying thankyou,  it slows down the helping process
[02:26] <Pelo> ;-)
[02:26] <omegacenti> Pelo: sorry.. heh.. cough.. wheeze... tha... uh..
[02:27] <symbiote> is tehre anyway to search in this log so it will just show the stuff that says "status Installed _____"
[02:27] <symbiote> cuz this is a huge log to go threw
[02:27] <guerrillawon> I think I am having Esound, Alsa, and Oss conflicts knocking out all of my sound, and was wondering if anyone could help me to reset any of these, if they indeed can be reset.
[02:27] <guerrillawon> I think Esound is giving me the problem.
[02:27] <Bixby> thanks Pelo, hhope I got it right I'm a littel bit drunk right now :)
[02:27] <jrib> symbiote: grep  or use any text editor's search feature.  Did you mean something else?
[02:27] <n2diy> omegacenti: I understand your enthusiasm, I wish I had found Rute five years ago.
[02:27] <Pelo> symbiote,  in gui you can get that in synaptic
[02:28] <kraypius> apt-get installed git version 1.4.1 and i need a newer version. is there a repo i can add to get it to install newer version?
[02:28] <omegacenti> n2diy: This guide is extremely comprehensive.
[02:28] <Pelo> Bixby, it should have opened an extra window
[02:28] <ihmSelbst> Does exist anywhere logfiles from the boot process ??
[02:28] <cp84> can anyone tell me how to burn a mp3 cd?
[02:28] <Pelo> ihmSelbst,   /var/log
[02:28] <ihmSelbst> thx Pelo
[02:29] <n2diy> omegacenti: Yep, If you can read and comprehend it and "weeks" my hat is off to you. :)
[02:29] <kraypius> anyone? im having a hard time ere
[02:29] <n2diy> and/in
[02:29] <Pelo> cp84, install  gnomebaker, open gnomebaker  , select the mp3 files you want to put on the cd , add the files to the cd burning list,   put cd in the cd burner,   burn cd
[02:29] <particleman> howdy...dumb question
[02:29] <particleman> running Ubuntu Dapper
[02:29] <particleman> not kubuntu
[02:29] <Pelo> kraypius, hard time with what ?
[02:29] <omegacenti> n2diy: so you think it will take longer eh? :)
[02:30] <Flannel> !enter | particleman
[02:30] <ubotu> particleman: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[02:30] <particleman> what do I have to install to allow KDE app help files to work?
[02:30] <kraypius> figuring out how to get apt to upgrade my git
[02:30] <cp84> Pelo,   will it burn it as a audio cd or a mp3 cd
[02:30] <cp84> ?
[02:30] <kraypius> it installed 1.4.1 and I need newer
[02:30] <jrib> particleman: I think you can just install khelpcenter, but not sure
[02:30] <tsuamia> hey all. Anyone know why when I attempt to install things on wine it won't make the Program Files directory?
[02:30] <tim167> cp84, you can also use nautilus for that, pop in an empty cd, drag your mp3's to it and burn
[02:30] <Pelo> cp84,  that will burn as mp3 data cd , do you need to burn as audio cd ?
[02:30] <particleman> oh...oops :)
[02:30] <particleman> thanks
[02:30] <Bixby> ihmSelbst: have you tried with live-cd?
[02:30] <n2diy> omegacenti: I don't try to read it, I just use it as a reference. :)
[02:30] <guerrillawon> Is anyone here proficient in ESD and willing to take a few minutes to throw me a bone?
[02:31] <symbiote> whoa.. seriously thats alot of stuff it installed.. im just gonna re-install ubuntu lol it will be easier
[02:31] <cp84> no but will it pay on mp3 cd players like that?
[02:31] <n2diy> guerrillawon: ESD?
[02:31] <Pelo> kraypius, got to the git website and look for a deb file or the source code
[02:31] <symbiote> but does anyone know how to fix this bug i got that if you let ubuntu boot up by itself u get a blank screen
[02:31] <jrib> acs kraypius
[02:32] <symbiote> i boot up using recovery mode then type init 5 and it works fine.
[02:32] <bobbob1016> can anyone recommend a C++ gui compiler?  something like visual studio?
[02:32] <guerrillawon> n2diy : yes.
[02:32] <tsuamia> bobbob: Anjuta
[02:32] <Pelo> cp84, doyou need to make an audio cd ?  if you want an audio cd  use  menu > application > sound/video > serpentine
[02:32] <omegacenti> How long can file names be in Ubuntu 7.04?
[02:32] <underbear> the verification of my ubuntu cd tested fine. but after install ubuntu wont boot from the hard drive.  Is there some other tests I can preform to figure out why it wont boot ?
[02:32] <tsuamia> Bobbob: I use Anjuta to make my software and it works perfectly
[02:32] <cp84> Hrm.. My cd player will play  MP3s on disk
[02:32] <Pelo> bobbob1016,   search for c++ in synaptic and see what comes up
[02:33] <n2diy> guerrillawon: The ESD I'm familiar with is Electro Static Discharge, is that what your referring to?
[02:33] <cp84> but it has to be a certain format
[02:33] <guerrillawon> n2diy : I think I am having a conflict. As I knock out all of my sound, when I use both mplayer and flash at the same time. Videos unaffected, but no sound.
[02:33] <Pelo> cp84,  then you can burn as mp3 using nautilus or gnomebaker
[02:33] <moofs> Hi all,...can anyone help with my ubuntu install?
[02:33] <bobbob1016> Pelo, I was asking if anyone had a preference, I'll try that though
[02:33] <symbiote> ha! see that! underbear has teh same problem I do!
[02:33] <moofs> I am trying to install on Dell Inspiron 600m
[02:33] <tsuamia> bobob: Anjuta :)
[02:33] <moofs> it installs fine
[02:33] <jrib> kraypius: what version of ubuntu?
[02:33] <moofs> but it freezes when trying to boot
[02:33] <symbiote> my solution is recovery mode then type "init 5"
[02:33] <guerrillawon> n2diy : I'm referring to Esound, a linux audio archetecture used to handle the playing of multiple sound sources through single devices simultaniously.
[02:33] <cp84> crap
[02:33] <Pelo> bobbob1016,  the nice thing about linux is you can try them all , for free
[02:33] <Herosblade> TMM: hey back problem
[02:33] <omegacenti> How long can file names be in Ubuntu 7.04?
[02:34] <symbiote> but i wanna fix it so i dont have to do that
[02:34] <TMM> Herosblade: back problem? :)
[02:34] <Herosblade> TMM: now grub is giving me a freakin harddisk error
[02:34] <underbear> the latest I guess,  I just downloaded it this morning .. 7.04 or something
[02:34] <guerrillawon> n2diy : I wish I could just throw on an esd wrist strap and fix my problem, but I tried to no avail.
[02:34] <TMM> Herosblade: what harddisk error? :)
[02:34] <Pelo> cp84,  it is very hard to tell you what do do with so little info,  what format will your cd player accept
[02:34] <guerrillawon> Still can't hear a thing.
[02:34] <kraypius> 6.10 edgy
[02:34] <bruenig> omegacenti, that is a linux thing, not an ubuntu thing and would not have changed version to version,  I would imagine hundreds of characters
[02:34] <moofs> "Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel"   <--- it freezes here
[02:34] <cp84> mp3 format
[02:34] <n2diy> guerrillawon: Nope, can't help you with that, maybe your wrist strap is open? :)
[02:34] <Herosblade> TMM: just says harddisk error
[02:34] <omegacenti> bruenig: more than 256?
[02:34] <jrib> kraypius: feisty has git 1.4.4.2
[02:35] <moofs> I tried nolapic, etc
[02:35] <guerrillawon> nsdiy : I'll check.
[02:35] <moofs> but nothing,....any ideas?
[02:35] <Pelo> cp84, then burn your mp3 files to the cd using gnomebaker or nautilus and it should be fine
[02:35] <guerrillawon> n2diy : Nope. :(
[02:35] <|-David-|> I messed up my x server file, any way to change it without reinstalling ubuntu?
[02:35] <Pelo> cp84, use gnomebaker it,s simpler
[02:35] <tsuamia> having problems with wine, anyone know anything about it?
[02:35] <guerrillawon> Thanks though. I appreceate atleast an interest in helping.
[02:35] <n2diy> guerrillawon: GL
[02:35] <underbear> mine just says boot failure. please insert system disk
[02:35] <Pelo> |-David-|,   sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:36] <|-David-|> i can do that without booting ubuntu?
[02:36] <Herosblade> TMM: no offence but so far linux has ben nothing but trouble
[02:36] <johan__> hey room
[02:36] <Pelo> |-David-|,  no you need to boot at least the recovery mode
[02:36] <|-David-|> \Because i messed it up to the point of no-boot =O
[02:36] <tsuamia> herosblade: a lot of people think that the first time they use linux
[02:36] <tsuamia> herosblade: but its worth it
[02:36] <Pelo> |-David-|, can you boot the recovery mode ?

[02:37] <Pelo> |-David-|,  boot the live cd ,  navitage to  /etc/X11  and rename the xorg.conf back up file to xorg.conf
[02:37] <symbiote> but im not linux pro.. soo yeah.. lol Im new also..
[02:38] <TMM> Herosblade: no, you didn't and windows can't work from a usb disk, it simply can not, it will crash with a blue screen that it can't access the boot device
[02:38] <tsuamia> Herosblade: did you self burn the ubuntu disk? check if its alright, I had to burn it twice cause the fist dusk I used was dodgey
[02:38] <Monteh> amg D:

[02:38] <Herosblade> tsuamia: i did the test disk for errors
[02:38] <Pelo> |-David-|, make sure you go to /etc/X11 on the hdd , not the one from the live cd
[02:38] <Monteh> i got ubuntu to boot by using the command as follows linux -- acpi=off pnpbios=off :D
[02:39] <|-David-|> ok, I'll try =)
[02:39] <tsuamia> herosblade: when I did that it didn't tell me it was broken, but it still was.

[02:40] <underbear> yea. I've unplugged any non essential hardware.  Ive reinstalled more then a few times and re-burnt and verified the install cd numerous times and I still cant boot from HD
[02:40] <cp84> in windows i have to do it as a   Audio but burn as mp3 format
[02:40] <Pelo> cp84, then use serpentine to make an audio cd
[02:40] <Herosblade> tsuamia: i installed it it botted correctly numours times
[02:41] <johan> after i ran pstree -p , i found there were 3 pppd processes.

[02:41] <Herosblade> tsuamia: now thought grub just gives me a harddisk error
[02:41] <tsuamia> Herosblade: same thing happened to a friend..
[02:41] <cp84> it will not convert it to audio?  it will leave it as  mp3
[02:41] <cp84> ?
[02:41] <Herosblade> tsuamia: what just crapped out on him for no reason?
[02:41] <johan> and the ifconfig command shows 2 pppoe interfaces , ppp0 and ppp1 ,etc.

[02:42] <tsuamia> herosblade: yeah, will ask him what he did when he comes online, if you are still on here ill tell you
[02:42] <n2diy> kkathman: Audacity
[02:42] <Pelo> symbiote, try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg , hopefully it will restore the boot stuff as well

[02:43] <bruenig> Plantain, you will need to upgrade to 6.06, then 6.10, then 7.04, certain breakage
[02:43] <Plantain> D:

[02:44] <Pelo> cp84, honestly just try the damn thing , if one doesn't work try the other,  it will take less time then asking over and over again , we do not know, we donT' know what cd player you use and we wouldn'T know if/what even if we did ,   cds are 10 a pcs  just get on with it and try

[02:44] <ubotu> nvu is a WYSIWYG and code dual-function HTML editor for easily creating web pages.  The original developer is working on a full rewrite; meanwhile, another is doing bugfixes.  It is not in the Ubuntu repos for Feisty Fawn, but add your name to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WaitingForNvuFeisty to be notified when packages are available.  See also !html.
[02:44] <Flannel> Plantain: 5.10 upgrades to 6.06 to 6.10 to 7.04, which is 3x the data you'll need to download to just reinstall with a fresh 7.04 CD
[02:44] <bruenig> joebob777as7, copy a file from the machine you are sshed into to the one you are sshing from?
[02:44] <moofs> can someone help me out with my ubuntu install?
[02:44] <kitche> joebob777as7: do you mean copy a file over or on the same machine?
[02:44] <Pelo> moofs,  do you have a specific issue ?
[02:45] <n2diy> joebob777as7: cp doesn't work?
[02:45] <p1ls> hey, i would like to record a short clip how to install something, what program ya guys suggest
[02:45] <rampy> can someone help me with ubuntu  install on my laptop??
[02:45] <bruenig> !recordmydesktop
[02:45] <p1ls> rampy, whats up
[02:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about recordmydesktop - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:45] <ihmSelbst> feisty fawn will not start and crash while booting. there is my /var/log/system.0  http://rafb.net/p/FCyzoG83.html    anybody an idea ??
[02:45] <Pelo> p1ls,  recordmydesktop
[02:45] <n2diy> p1ls: audio?
[02:45] <joebob777as7> I mean how do i pull it onto the computer i'm logged in from... I logged into a pc with ssh and I want a file on my system
[02:45] <p1ls> thanks
[02:45] <moofs> Pelo, yes, well...after installing both 6.06 and 7.04 the system freezes when trying to boot...
[02:45] <moofs> Pelo, "Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel"   <--- it freezes here
[02:46] <symbiote> tsuamia: no i got the name from aliens.. ya know the thing taht lives inside the host and kilsl them.. anotehr note.. Headcrabs are symbiotes also lol
[02:46] <Pelo> moofs,  you upgraded to 7.04 ?  try a clean install instead,
[02:46] <n2diy> p1ls: you want to record audio?
[02:46] <moofs> Pelo, I did a clean install with both
[02:46] <joebob777as7> bruenig, yes that is what i'm tryin gto do
[02:46] <rampy> hi p1...i need to know if i already have xo installed how do i install ubuntu without erasing my data ...i have alread 4 partion drives each of 20gb
[02:46] <cp84> ok it worked
[02:46] <moofs> Pelo, its on a Dell 600m
[02:47] <rampy> and i want to install in one of the drives which does not have xp..like either D, E or F
[02:47] <tsuamia> symbiote: yeah that's what they call the goa'uld in SG1
[02:47] <Pelo> moofs,  I assume that you have a seperate / partiton for each release ?
[02:47] <symbiote> ok so the only solution for my problem is " sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[02:47] <joebob777as7> bruenig, is there a way?
[02:47] <symbiote> and Ive already done that
[02:47] <Plantain> Okay, so I stopped my install half way through (Before installing GRUB), will I just be able to pop in 7.04 and install ontop of my botched install?
[02:47] <moofs> Pelo, The hard disk is wiped for each install
[02:47] <bruenig> joebob777as7, I am not familiar with ssh as I have only one computer, I assume since you are asking cp doesn't work, try cat remotefile > localfile
[02:47] <moofs> Pelo, its an old laptop
[02:47] <Flannel> Plantain: Yes
[02:47] <moofs> Pelo, so I dont care whats on it
[02:47] <moofs> or lost
[02:47] <omegacenti> bruenig: thanks :)
[02:47] <Plantain> Cool.

[02:49] <bruenig> !anyone | rampy
[02:49] <ubotu> rampy: 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?
[02:49] <laser2> please how syncronize my treo on ubuntu?
[02:49] <Pelo> moofs,   the problem maybe iwth the ati video card,  did you install with the live cd or the alternate install ,  actualy were you able to install at all ?

[02:49] <n2diy> joebob777as7: pretty much the same way you use cp. I haven't down it in a while, so can't tell you exactly, off the top of my head.
[02:49] <tsuamia> symbiote: if you use ff you can just export them and email them to yourself
[02:50] <moofs> Pelo, yes the install completed
[02:50] <bruenig> !pastebin | rampy
[02:50] <tsuamia> symbiote: probably could with ie too
[02:50] <ubotu> rampy: 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)
[02:50] <symbiote> whats ff?
[02:50] <tsuamia> firefox
[02:50] <kkathman> n2diy:   can you help me along as to how audacity can rip the tracks - it seems to be more of an editor?
[02:50] <{BFG}> lawl
[02:50] <symbiote> oh lol
[02:50] <Pelo> moofs, I don'T know then,  can you boot the recovery mode ?
[02:50] <laser2> please how syncronize my treo 650 (palm) on ubuntu?
[02:50] <Pelo> rampy,  xp is usuealy installed on the first partiton  do donT' insatll to taht, you can also probably telll which partition is which from the size
[02:50] <moofs> Pelo, nope
[02:50] <{BFG}> open up synaptic and search for PALM
[02:51] <{BFG}> there is a good syncing app for ubuntu
[02:51] <jscinoz> hey guys how can i set the environment value MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME?
[02:51] <bruenig> jscinoz, put it in /etc/profile if you want it to constantly be the same
[02:51] <bruenig> jscinoz, then source /etc/profile
[02:51] <Pelo> moofs, then I don'T have a clue,  try looking up the computer model in the forum, maybe someone else had the same issue and figured out a fix
[02:51] <{BFG}> there is also a gstreamer plugin to allow you to have some easier support for your palm
[02:51] <laser2> what's name /dev/ usb in ubuntu for configuration ?
[02:51] <rampy> i did not get Pero
[02:51] <bruenig> laser2, restate
[02:51] <rampy> Peto...if my drives are already partitioned.
[02:52] <rampy> into four drives each of 20gb
[02:52] <moofs> Pelo, Am I right in thinking the alternative is Ubuntu 6.06 LTS?
[02:52] <jscinoz> how do i source /etc/profile?
[02:52] <Pelo> rampy,  it's Pelo ,    in the live cd    menu > system > admin > gnome partition editor , it will display the partitions avaiable
[02:52] <bruenig> jscinoz, do "source /etc/profile"
[02:52] <symbiote> ok so how do i email msyelf my bookmarks?
[02:52] <jscinoz> alright.
[02:52] <jscinoz> so where in /etc/profile should i add the line?
[02:52] <Pelo> moofs, no  the alternate cd says alternate,  there is one for each release for each architecture
[02:52] <rampy> Sorry..ok...and can i select which drive to install after that
[02:53] <bruenig> jscinoz, it doesn't matter to the system, wherever you are comfortable putting it
[02:53] <moofs> hmmmm,....really?
[02:53] <rampy> currently i am on xp so i cannot test it..
[02:53] <moofs> cool I will take a lok
[02:53] <underbear> the alternate is an non graphic installer
[02:53] <jscinoz> alright thanks, and is this the right syntax "MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox"?
[02:53] <Pelo> rampy,  yes you can
[02:53] <rampy> so basically you are saying i will have option which drive to install
[02:54] <johan> anybody there get some time to answer my question ?
[02:54] <Pelo> rampy, ubuntu is a full featured os,  you can do pretty much everything you can think of and some more on top of that
[02:54] <GrueTamer> !ask
[02:54] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:54] <Flannel> moofs: If you simply change "desktop" to "alternate" in the URL of the torrent/iso, you should get the alternate CD.  Otherwise you'll have to dig a little bit more on ubuntu.com (or go to releases.ubuntu.com)
[02:54] <n2diy> ! ask | johan
[02:54] <ubotu> johan: please see above
[02:54] <bruenig> jscinoz, yeah, I think you are supposed to put quotes around /usr part but it probably doesn't matter
[02:54] <Pelo> johan,  just ask the question
[02:54] <jscinoz> ok thanks
[02:54] <rampy> hmm and can i  recover that drive in future if i uninstall ubuntu on worst case scenario
[02:55] <johan> after running pstree -p ,i found 3 pppd there
[02:55] <Pelo> rampy, ...
[02:55] <underbear> rampy: burn a live CD and test run from that.  but you may run into the same problem as I have,  I can test it fine.  but I cant run it from the hard drive for some reason
[02:55] <rampy> i have ran the live cd and it works fine for me...
[02:55] <jscinoz> bruenig, when i  run the source command it thinks that mozilla_five_home is a program not a variable..
[02:55] <joebob777as7> thanks all!!! scp worked like a charm!
[02:56] <symbiote> ok nm i figured it out..
[02:56] <n2diy> joebob777as7: cool!
[02:56] <rampy> underbear what  problem did you face?
[02:56] <johan> !ask > after running pstree -p ,i found 3 pppd there
[02:56] <guerrillawon> n2diy : you here?
[02:56] <i-like-beans> How could I go about turning off X to run at start up, and only have it run when i need it?
[02:56] <n2diy> guerrillawon: yep
[02:56] <krips> need some helo with my ubuntu 7.04
[02:56] <Pelo> johan,  you are not being ignored,  we just donT, know what to tell you , is there an actual problem ?
[02:56] <bruenig> jscinoz, make sure it looks like this: MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME='/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox'
[02:56] <rampy> i mean for me it works like charm on live cd ..so i want to now install on my harddrive
[02:56] <nerdygirl_ellie> aamy:  You still here?
[02:57] <bruenig> jscinoz, nothing else don't call it like $MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME just assign the variable
[02:57] <Pelo> krips,  we need an actual question
[02:57] <krips> ok
[02:57] <jscinoz> worked, thanks
[02:57] <guerrillawon> n2diy : I cleaned my computer yesterday right, plugged everything in... except for my friggin esd wrist strap. You were right, it was just unplugged. (I still have sound problems, but not these anymore) haha
[02:57] <Pelo> rampa,  just click the install icon on the desktop from the live cd
[02:57] <guerrillawon> n2diy : The help is very much appreciated.
[02:57] <jscinoz> problem was i used this kind of quote" instead of '
[02:58] <krips> pelo i see diferent desktop same with the desktop in vista
[02:58] <n2diy> guerrillawon: Ok, I was joking, but I'm glad you are making progress.
[02:58] <krips> how can i do that
[02:58] <krips> ?
[02:58] <guerrillawon> n2diy :basically my speakers were not plugged in.
[02:58] <krips> fot example
[02:58] <Pelo> johan,  I do not take private msg , please talk to me in the channel
[02:58] <krips> the clock wiget
[02:58] <krips> how can i install this?
[02:58] <n2diy> guerrillawon: Yea, that would cause trouble.
[02:58] <jscinoz> hmm still having a problem with my program
[02:58] <underbear> rampy:  mine says something like boot failure.  please install system disk and restart.   I've reinstalled many times , and reburnt the cd but it still wont boot from the hard drive
[02:59] <krips> pelo u know something?
[02:59] <Pelo> krips, sudo apt-get install gdesklets gdesklets-extra
[02:59] <guerrillawon> I'm so used to it being application layer bs, I didn't even think to check.
[02:59] <rampy> is u xp still working Underbear?
[02:59] <krips> ty pelo
[02:59] <krips> lets me see ok
[02:59] <jscinoz> this application i'm trying to use requires libraries from the Mozilla suite, since i cannot install that from synaptic anymore, i need to have a variable to tell it to load the libs from firefox instead, any ides how i would do this?
[02:59] <Bixby> hey I'm in a trouble, I have a dvd (Pantera 3 Vulgar Videos From Hell) and it's protected. The audio and video is a mess, how do I watch it?
[02:59] <rampy> Underbear, is ur xp still working?
[02:59] <underbear> rampy: yes.  im installing to a totally different hard drive.  Ive completely disconnected the xp drive
[02:59] <kitche> jscinoz: seamonkey is the Mozilla suite
[03:00] <jscinoz> ahh thanks
[03:00] <spasticteapot> underbear: What's your problem?
[03:00] <nerdygirl_ellie> Bixby:  Install Audacity and install xine + the illegal dvd codecs.
[03:00] <rampy> i don't wanna end with crashed xp in any case..:)
[03:00] <Flannel> kitche: it's not in feisty though, for some odd reason (although it is in edgy)
[03:00] <Flannel> kitche: er, is in gutsy
[03:00] <Aeos> where might I find the controls for switching the display from vga to s-video
[03:00] <n2diy> guerrillawon: Yep, when I use my HF I rig I turn of my speakers to keep the RF out of them, and then I forget to turn them back on! :/
[03:00] <underbear> rampy you can partition to prevent that
[03:00] <nerdygirl_ellie> Aeos:  what video card?
[03:00] <jscinoz> but is there a way to do it without installing extra stuff? It only needs the libs to render a web page from mozilla
[03:00] <rampy> my is 1 hard drive with four partitons
[03:00] <Aeos> Raedon 9000
[03:00] <kitche> Flannel: that's odd
[03:00] <Pelo> later folks
[03:01] <Bixby> xine
[03:01] <underbear> spasticteapot.  my ubuntu 7.04 wont boot from the hard drive.  says failure, please insert system disk and restart
[03:01] <i-like-beans> How can you make it so X doesnt automatically run at start up and can be started and stopped manually?
[03:01] <nerdygirl_ellie> Aeos:  sorry, can't help.  If it was nvidia, the nvidia-settings widget could do it.  I don't know if ATI has a similar program.
[03:01] <johan> i dont know how to use an IRC ,shame for that.
[03:01] <kitche> Flannel: yep it sure isn't
[03:01] <rampy> so i hope installing in another drive won't affect the original xp
[03:01] <alan_> huubkljlk;
[03:01] <alan_> sorry
[03:01] <rampy> hey Johan this is my first time in IRC too...
[03:02] <kitche> i-like-beans: umm chmod -x the gdm script you can rename the symlink also if you wish but I just do the main script myself
[03:02] <kraypius> how do i tell apt-get to ask me before removing ANY dependencies when telling it to remove something?
[03:02] <nerdygirl_ellie> i-like-beans:  change the default runlevel to 3.  one sec.
[03:02] <tim167> johan, bu typing that you are contradicting yourself ;)
[03:02] <rampy> though i am using windows pidgin version
[03:02] <underbear> rampy, as long as you choose that correct drive to install . lol.  it shouldnt effect your xp partitions
[03:02] <bruenig> kraypius, apt-get doesn't automatically remove dependencies unless you apt-get autoremove
[03:02] <n2diy> i-like-beans: google for ubuntu boot levels, I know how to do it in Fedora, but Ubuntu does it differently.
[03:02] <spasticteapot> underbear: That's a problem, yes.
[03:02] <spasticteapot> underbear: How did you install?
[03:02] <rampy> thanks underbear...later
[03:04] <kraypius> there is no deb package for git 1.5 so looks like ill need to use the rpm.. which i have little experience with
[03:04] <underbear> spasticteapot.  I booted from live CD to a dedicated hard drive jumpered as master  with the xp drive completely disconnected . I also disconnected any hardware I wont be using such as the dialup modem ect.
[03:04] <underbear> the install said complete. remove the disk and restart
[03:04] <spasticteapot> That's odd indeed.
[03:04] <matthew1429> hey guys, what aside from lacking any windows manager, will xubuntu server have installed that ubuntu desktop won't have out of the box?
[03:04] <bluebanana> Mirrakor, hello again. How do i delete the americaarmy.run game i installed via ./foo.run?
[03:04] <bruenig> kraypius, get the source, don't use an rpm
[03:05] <underbear> it hung on restart.  when it finally did .  it just says boot failure. please install system disk and restart
[03:05] <spasticteapot> underbear: Try downloading again.
[03:05] <Bixby> nerdygirl_ellie; umm.. what exactly are the dvd codecs 'couse i've already installed them thourgh Automatix- But I guess they don't work? I'm using feisty amd64 version
[03:05] <kraypius> bruenig, i will do even worse with that lol
[03:05] <kitche> matthew1429: all the gui applications it will be a barebone system pretty much
[03:05] <nerdygirl_ellie> matthew1429: a bunch of xfce apps and gnumeric+abiword instead of openoffice
[03:05] <spasticteapot> underbear: Sounds dumb, but it happened to me once.
[03:05] <bruenig> kraypius, the rpm has a very real chance of harming the system, the source doesn't
[03:05] <spasticteapot> matthew1429: Why do you need XFCE for a server?
[03:05] <Mirrakor> bluebanana: technically the game wasn't installed, everything should be inside the .run (so it's a package which includes the whole game). simply rm it and it's deleted
[03:05] <underbear> spasticteapot.  I've downloaded 3x .  and also reburnt the disk 3x.  ive been reinstalling all night.  the same version 7.04 .
[03:06] <spasticteapot> underbear: Odd indeed.
[03:06] <underbear> the only thing I can think of is running a different version ?
[03:06] <matthew1429> just wanted to try to solve the weird problems I'm having
[03:06] <matthew1429> and considering that as an option
[03:06] <|_ocke> can someone help me get my alsa sou8nd working again
[03:06] <spasticteapot> underbear; Try your BIOS. After switching drives, it may have been removed from the boot order.
[03:06] <ubunt1> hey
[03:06] <ubunt1> how can i see what folder is permission
[03:06] <ubunt1> chown and what???
[03:06] <rsl> ARGG! Is there an easy[ish]  way to convert from id3v2.4 to id3v2.3 on mp3s?
[03:06] <rsl> ARGG! Is there an easy[ish]  way to convert from id3v2.4 to id3v2.3 on mp3s?
[03:06] <spasticteapot> underbear: Well, what's your hardware?
[03:07] <rsl> Sorry. I didn't think I hit enter.
[03:07] <|_ocke> i put a sblive card in because the onboard ac97 wasnt working
[03:07] <kitche> Mirrakor: umm .run files are usually install scripts it's half script half binary so if he rm's the .run he will still have to uninstall the game
[03:07] <underbear> spasticteapot: ive tred that.  and it should sees everything fine
[03:07] <underbear> hold on let me get the rundown really quick
[03:07] <sele> hi
[03:07] <spasticteapot> underbear: Once again - what hardware?
[03:07] <nerdygirl_ellie> Bixby: If you installed xine/gxine, then you can run it via applications -> sound & video -> gxine.  It plays DVD's like magic!
[03:07] <Mirrakor> kitche: but how?
[03:07] <|_ocke> i disabled the via8237 in bios, but it still shows up in lspci and alsamixer opens up using it
[03:07] <spasticteapot> underbear: Are you using the 64-bit version?
[03:07] <spasticteapot> And do you get anything at all?
[03:08] <spasticteapot> Pastebin your error message, maybe?
[03:08] <kitche> Mirrakor: by deleting the files or it might have an uninstall script someplace
[03:08] <nerdygirl_ellie> ubunt1: from the gui, right-click => properties -> permissions.  from the command line ls -asl
[03:08] <|_ocke> i had it working before last restart, and all i did then was change the output of the alsa xmms plugin, then it worked in all applications
[03:08] <|_ocke> but this time that didnt work
[03:08] <rsl> Anyone here know an easy way to convert between id3v2.3 and v2.4? 2.4 isn't compatible with everything and frakkin' SoundJuicer labelled everything 2.4
[03:09] <johan> after i ran 'pstree -p' i got 3 pppd daemons there.
[03:09] <Monteh> hey can anyone advise me on how to resize  windows partition to make space for a ubuntu install?
[03:09] <underbear> pent III copermine 1ghz , wd 120gb hd , all inwonder radeon 7600, 764mb ram
[03:09] <nerdygirl_ellie> Monteh:  I would use the demo version of Partition Magic if it is still around.
[03:09] <bluebanana> Mirrakor, thanks. I found an uninstall file in the folder that the installation produced. and it uninstalled everything.
[03:09] <bruenig> Monteh, the installer can do it automatically or you can select manual and point and click
[03:10] <bruenig> Monteh, I would not use partition magic
[03:10] <spasticteapot> underbear: Very strange indeed.
[03:10] <bluebanana> i deleted it coz America's army is not as good in linux as in Windows
[03:10] <spasticteapot> underbear: Maybe try repartitioning your main drive?
[03:10] <bluebanana> anybody have any suggestions for free First-person Shooter games for ubuntu?
[03:10] <nerdygirl_ellie> bruenig: Really?  it worked for me last year when I was still in dual-boot land.
[03:10] <underbear> boot from cd takes longer then it should
[03:10] <Monteh> how can the installer do it, when i tried  to do it just now, it was gonna delete my whole partition lol
[03:10] <luke__> whats the command to get clam av? sudo apt-get what?
[03:10] <|_ocke> yeah dont use partition magic
[03:10] <spasticteapot> Dual-booting might fix it - it could be that you have a hard drive problem.
[03:10] <|_ocke> itll screw up your linux partitions
[03:10] <kitche> johan: you still didn't tell us your problem with 3 pppd's
[03:10] <Bixby> nerdygirl_ellie: This is really weird I installed all the libarys that the feisty wiki told me to but still no luck. I'll try it tomorrow after I get some sleep... :)
[03:11] <bruenig> nerdygirl_ellie, yeah what |_ocke says
[03:11] <|_ocke> use GParted
[03:11] <luke__> gparted is good
[03:11] <|_ocke> luke__, you trying to scan a windows drive?
[03:11] <nerdygirl_ellie> Bixby:  ok.  the ones in partition magic worked great.
[03:11] <luke__> u can partion without loosing data
[03:11] <Monteh> |_ocke: what is gparted?
[03:11] <luke__> yeah
[03:11] <johan> can u see my questions ? ok ,i will continue
[03:11] <|_ocke> Monteh, the best graphical partitioner youll ever use
[03:11] <nerdygirl_ellie> Bixby: Try that again... Automatix! worked.
[03:11] <aroo> johan you haven't asked a question
[03:11] <underbear> spasticteapot: there is only one drive installed.  wd 120gb on ide 1 on ribon 1 jummpered master
[03:11] <cd_> ?
[03:12] <|_ocke> its on the ubuntu livecd
[03:12] <spasticteapot> underbear: That is odd indeed.
[03:12] <bruenig> !automatix | nerdygirl_ellie Bixby
[03:12] <ubotu> nerdygirl_ellie Bixby: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[03:12] <snowman> Hi folks, anyone here have samba up and running with xp and 7.04? :|
[03:12] <spasticteapot> Have you checked the hard drive?
[03:12] <Monteh> |_ocke: my computer is 1 ntfs partition, i want to partition off about 30gb for ubuntu, where do i find gparted on the cd, :S
[03:12] <johan> running ifconfig ,it shows 2 pppoe interfaces there
[03:12] <spasticteapot> snowman: Welcome to hell. There are tutorials on the forum, but Samba is a pain in the ass any way you look at it.
[03:12] <luke__> ill tell u what gparted is, its a gnome partioning program, lets you partion your hdd without loosing data
[03:12] <|_ocke> theres also a much smaller livecd just for running gparted
[03:12] <underbear> durring the install I chose the guided - use entire disk option
[03:12] <|_ocke> Monteh, just boot the livecd
[03:13] <luke__> l_ocke?
[03:13] <johan> they both use do receive and send data
[03:13] <nerdygirl_ellie> Monteh: You'll want to Defrag the hard drive from inside windows first.
[03:13] <snowman> spasticteapot, yeah, I know, but it worked in prior versions, but when I reinstall with 7.04, I can see the smb box, just can't connect.  keeps asking for user/password, and the usual fixes don't work :\
[03:13] <SeriousStorm85> has any one used an external tv tuner on ubuntu yet?
[03:13] <|_ocke> its in system tools or administration of something
[03:13] <Monteh> underbear: does that not format the whole hd :s
[03:13] <spasticteapot> snowman: I have no idea at all.
[03:13] <spasticteapot> Very sorry.
[03:13] <snowman> Monteh, yeah, that'd bomb the whole drive, not set aside 30g for you.
[03:14] <underbear> Monteh : yes.  this is to be a linux only dedicated drive
[03:14] <luke__> ummm hello?
[03:14] <nerdygirl_ellie> Monteh: ... and if you don't have any existing linux partitions, then partition magic will work without the learning curve of gparted.
[03:14] <snowman> nerdygirl_ellie, partition magic is rather non-free though.
[03:14] <snowman> spasticteapot, oh well.  thanks anyway.
[03:14] <Monteh> nerdygirl_ellie: ill give partition magic a go :) my god ubuntu is sexy lol
[03:14] <underbear> I have all my seperate OS's on seperate hard drives in removable drive bays. but do the initial installs direct to the cables
[03:15] <kitche> luke__: clamav
[03:15] <luke__> how do i get clam av?
[03:15] <Monteh> if anyone is interested i got it to boot using linux acpi=no pnpbios=no
[03:15] <kitche> luke__: sudo apt-get install clamav
[03:16] <luke__> thanks
[03:16] <|_ocke> luke__, why do you need clamav?
[03:16] <luke__> scan my windows portion
[03:16] <IndyGunFreak> |_ocke: thats what i was wondering
[03:16] <|_ocke> cool
[03:16] <underbear> my final option is to try an older version or a different distro all together.  but wanted to check if I was missing something 1st
[03:16] <luke__> i think i got a vuries
[03:16] <luke__> hey its indygunfreak
[03:16] <SeriousStorm85> Does anyone know how to set up an external tv card in Ubuntu?
[03:16] <IndyGunFreak> hey its me..lol
[03:16] <spasticteapot> luke__: Unlikely. More likely, you just messed something up.
[03:17] <|_ocke> luke__, thats cool, didnt know if you knew it isnt necessary for linux FSs :)
[03:17] <luke__> lol unix is the cleanest OS ever
[03:17] <luke__> linux**
[03:17] <kitche> luke__: not really
[03:17] <|_ocke> well, im sure minix was probably cleaner
[03:18] <luke__> lol
[03:18] <Arrick> heya all

[03:18] <nerdygirl_ellie> Arrick: cp -R
[03:19] <Arrick> ok thanks
[03:19] <HymnToLife> Arrick, just the same way you would do if your directory was a file, instead you just add -R
[03:19] <|_ocke> oh you mean ubuntu 7.04 feisty fawn
[03:19] <nerdygirl_ellie> Arrick: or cp -aR to copy all the attributes and stuff.

[03:23] <inverselimit> Hi, anyone know if there is a workaround for the shutdown-not-working problem in Feisty (e.g. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/71040)?  Thanks if you have any clues for me.  I am fully updated, running 2.6.20-16-generic kernel on xeon hardware.
[03:23] <IndyGunFreak> sorry
[03:23] <underbear> I once had 6x6 wifi .. I fought with those jerks.  they kept saying my bandwith usage exceeded user agreements.  and I kept telling them. you're charging me business rates.  the bandwith is supposed to be unlimited

[03:23] <xander> anyone
[03:23] <spasticteapot> As a side note....anyone who wants Linux + Laptop, go buy a Thinkpad.
[03:23] <underbear> they'd freaking cap me.  or disconnect my service
[03:23] <spasticteapot> Worth every penny.
[03:24] <bruenig> spasticteapot, thinkpads are ugly
[03:24] <luke__> ubotu? whos that
[03:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about whos that - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[03:24] <xander> its a bot
[03:24] <underbear> I hate the thinkpad nub button
[03:24] <bruenig> I couldn't find any of the new thinkpads with ipw3945 either
[03:24] <snowman> damnit.  why must samba be such a pain?
[03:24] <|_ocke> or anything that isnt 100% lossless
[03:24] <xander> bruenig: i have a new t60 with the ipw3945
[03:25] <bruenig> well on their website...
[03:25] <luke__> damn clam av dident install
[03:25] <luke__> man i hate tht
[03:25] <spasticteapot> bruenig:So? They're functional.
[03:25] <nerdygirl_ellie> snowman: what issue are you having?  I've got a half-dozen samba boxes out.
[03:25] <bruenig> or maybe it was ati, I forget, it was wireless or ati
[03:25] <kitche> luke__: are you sure it didn't?
[03:25] <xander> i think they have ati too
[03:25] <IndyGunFreak> luke__: how do you kno w it didn't install?
[03:25] <spasticteapot> underbear: As I recall, all but the X60 also have a trackpad.
[03:25] <bruenig> anyway, I went with good ole hp, linux friendly
[03:25] <xander> but i opted for the linux-friendly intel GMA
[03:25] <underbear> i love my hp 17in laptop.  just hate the fact that I bought it before realizing there was an option with a higher rez screen
[03:25] <luke__> it tells me error error error
[03:25] <underbear> lol
[03:26] <xander> but seriously, does anyone here know anything about the iwlwifi driver and mac80211 subsystem? specifically how to get it working on an ipw3945 under the lastest feisty?
[03:26] <luke__> o well it dont matter when i get festy fawn ill have everything
[03:26] <snowman> nerdygirl_ellie, I can see the samba box in Network neighbourhood from the xp box, but can't connect to it.
[03:26] <luke__> stupid thinkpads have a nuvin
[03:26] <snowman> it asks for a user/pass and I give it that, but it just keeps asking.  I've set password via 'smbpasswd -a snowman', but no luck.
[03:26] <xander> baaah
[03:26] <underbear> my laptop has a full size keyboard and 10key
[03:27] <nerdygirl_ellie> snowman: what happens when you try to open it from XP...  hmm.

[03:28] <underbear> i got a lotta  muscle to haul it
[03:28] <underbear> lol
[03:28] <snowman> nerdygirl_ellie, not that I can see, no.
[03:28] <bruenig> 17 seems a bit much to me for a laptop at least, I stuck with 15.4
[03:28] <snowman> looked in log.machinename and log.smbd, as well as log.nmbd
[03:28] <nerdygirl_ellie> A lot of games don't like widescreen laptops.
[03:28] <underbear> hell .. when I was a gamer I hauled 2 21 in crt to lan partys 2x a week
[03:28] <underbear> and a full tower
[03:28] <bruenig> well for a gamer I suppose
[03:29] <nerdygirl_ellie> I'm getting ready to submit a patch for open arena
[03:29] <Puppy_> What is the best Linux distribution for REALLY old computers?
[03:29] <IndyGunFreak> underbear: lol, so did you seek out a support group to stop that?
[03:29] <luke__> ship it
[03:29] <andrewbryson> hiyas everyone
[03:29] <snowman> Puppy_, define really old.
[03:29] <nerdygirl_ellie> Puppy_: how old?  486?
[03:29] <bruenig> Puppy_, arch
[03:29] <bruenig> not arch
[03:29] <underbear> d; indyGunFreak no to find out why ubuntu wont boot from hd
[03:29] <underbear> I hardly even open solitaire nowadays
[03:30] <underbear> bills suck
[03:30] <Puppy_> I am not sure... It is pretty old... I am looking at installing linux in the future. not right now.
[03:30] <underbear> install now while its still supported
[03:31] <underbear> lol
[03:31] <tarnold> hey all
[03:31] <luke__> ??? 6.06 lts is suported till 2009 and festy is only suported till 2008...
[03:31] <nerdygirl_ellie> Puppy_: If I were me, I would look at the current or previous LTS version of xubuntu.
[03:31] <|_ocke> luke__, LTS == long term support
[03:31] <snowman> luke__, LTS means "long term support"
[03:31] <tarnold> if i have a cd with .m4a how can i rip it to my HD? i want to put it on my ipod
[03:31] <Puppy_> nerdygirl_ellie: ok I will may look into that. Thanks!
[03:31] <luke__> ohhhh....
[03:32] <luke__> i aint downloading 700mb i stick with cds
[03:32] <nerdygirl_ellie> Puppy_: THere are some people that would say Gentoo.  I am not one of them.
[03:32] <|_ocke> it is considered one of the stable releases and they've developed loads of documentation and such for it
[03:32] <gavin_> has anyone gotten audacity to record properly in feisty?
[03:32] <erpo> tarnold: If you have a CD with .m4a files on it, you can just copy those files to your hard drive. They will play on your ipod unchanged.
[03:32] <Puppy_> nerdygirl_ellie: just out of curiosity why?
[03:33] <tarnold> erpo: how can i load em on my ipod?
[03:33] <|_ocke> Puppy_, you could try DSL, Knoppix, older slackware and such
[03:33] <|_ocke> i heard sabayon might be good too
[03:33] <bruenig> or puppy
[03:33] <bruenig> sabayon is not for old stuff
[03:33] <|_ocke> yeah of puppy :)
[03:33] <snowman> knoppix isn't that lightweight anymore.
[03:33] <|_ocke> bruenig, wasnt sure
[03:33] <nerdygirl_ellie> Puppy_: Good: Runs well and a lot of control over packages  Bad:  Installing and testing is not for newbies.
[03:33] <snowman> it bogs down older computers badly, it's only selling point imho is that it's a liveCD
[03:33] <|_ocke> i heard good things about MEPIS
[03:33] <erpo> tarnold: Install the gtkpod-aac package.
[03:34] <bruenig> sabayon is the official distro of beryl if that tips you off
[03:34] <kkathman> I think probably this discussion needs to go to offtopic tho guys
[03:34] <Puppy_> nerdygirl_ellie: ok thanks!
[03:34] <|_ocke> oh i didnt know that
[03:34] <Puppy_> l_ocke: ok thanks
[03:34] <Puppy_> !
[03:34] <tarnold> ok thanks
[03:34] <|_ocke> i should try it now that i have a pretty sweet machine to run it on
[03:34] <gavin_> So audacity doesn't work at all on feisty?!? Has no one gotten it working properly to record audio?
[03:34] <luke__> which linux is the best? (e.g fedora, ubuntu ect)
[03:34] <Ubersmush> Hi, I want to install ubuntu but reckon I should ask some questions first
[03:34] <bruenig> luke__, arch
[03:34] <nerdygirl_ellie> snowman: I agree, it chews on the CD-rom a lot.
[03:35] <kitche> !best | luke__
[03:35] <SeriousStorm85> Does anyone know how to bring back the Title frame when Beryl is being used?
[03:35] <ubotu> luke__: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[03:35] <kitche> !offtopic
[03:35] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[03:35] <luke__> !best?
[03:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about best? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:35] <luke__> !best
[03:35] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[03:35] <dsobrinho> show
[03:35] <nerdygirl_ellie> luke__: Ubuntu! is my favorite because of the people here.  There really is no best.
[03:35] <Ubersmush> If I install it with the ubuntu live cd will it delete my windows partition first?
[03:35] <MacDrunk> so i try to mount samba but i couldnt any ideas?
[03:36] <Dr_willis> MacDrunk,  samba is rather complex. there can be a lot of reasons why things dont work.
[03:36] <spasticteapot> luke__: That's like asking "What's the best tool."
[03:36] <luke__> lol
[03:36] <luke__> kk
[03:36] <spasticteapot> luke__: A soldering iron is pretty useless for replacing lug-nuts.
[03:36] <SeriousStorm85> Does anyone here use Beryl?
[03:36] <MacDrunk> well yea man but i follow every struction i have read
[03:36] <cavalierprime> uber it won't delete your windows unless you tell it to
[03:36] <MacDrunk> any ideas for a graphical instalation
[03:36] <MacDrunk> ???
[03:36] <luke__> OK OK I GET THE POINT
[03:36] <Ubersmush> So I can install it and all my files will stay?
[03:37] <cavalierprime> yes, it will just make another partition for ubuntu
[03:37] <gavin_> SeriousStorm85: I use beryl
[03:37] <Ubersmush> And I'll be able to choose what OS to use on startup?
[03:37] <KEEV> gavin_, beryl owns ;)
[03:37] <|_ocke> SeriousStorm85, ive used it
[03:37] <luke__> i might just delete my linux portion till festy fawn comes
[03:37] <|_ocke> not recently though
[03:37] <nerdygirl_ellie> << is checking to see if his audacity works.
[03:37] <|_ocke> though i really want to now
[03:37] <luke__> how do i get limewire to work on linux?
[03:37] <KEEV> gavin_, what type of dock do you use? kiba?
[03:37] <SeriousStorm85> gavin_: do u know how to enable the title frame when beryl is enabled (Minmize/maxmize buttons)
[03:37] <|_ocke> luke__, you dont
[03:37] <luke__> i dont? y?
[03:37] <Hirvinen> luke__: Till Feisty Fawn comes? It's been out for almost two months.
[03:38] <|_ocke> there is frostwire if you insist on that thing
[03:38] <|_ocke> but amule is better
[03:38] <kraypius> I cant figure out what I need to do. Im trying to compile git and I keep getting:
[03:38] <kraypius>     CC convert-objects.o
[03:38] <kraypius> In file included from convert-objects.c:1:
[03:38] <kraypius> cache.h:6:21: error: openssl/sha.h: No such file or directory
[03:38] <kraypius> make: *** [convert-objects.o]  Error 1
[03:38] <gavin_> SeriousStorm85: what do you mean? It's there already (or it should)
[03:38] <|_ocke> and theres otehrs that arent so resource hungry
[03:38] <luke__> ... i ordered it!!! so im waiting till it comes
[03:38] <KEEV> SeriousStorm85, iwhat type of vid card do you have?
[03:38] <spasticteapot> SeriousStorm85: Everyone here but me, it seems.
[03:38] <Hirvinen> Oh, the cds...
[03:38] <SeriousStorm85> Nvidia geoforce 5200
[03:38] <KEEV> ok
[03:38] <gavin_> KEEV: I use Avant-window-navigator
[03:38] <kitche> kraypius: did you install build-essential? it might need openssl-dev also
[03:38] <nerdygirl_ellie> kraypius: install the openssl-devel package.
[03:39] <kraypius> k
[03:39] <KEEV> gavin_, ok so install nvidia-glx
[03:39] <tarnold> ok ive installed the gtkpod-aac, what else do i do?
[03:39] <KEEV> goto System > Admin > Synaptic package manager
[03:39] <KEEV> search for nvidia
[03:39] <IndyGunFreak> luke__: you can get Limewire from LImewire.com
[03:39] <gavin_> KEEV: i don't have a problem with beryl..... are you confusing me with someone else?
[03:39] <KEEV> install the glx driver
[03:39] <IndyGunFreak> I wish i could support Open source, but Limewire kills Frostwire
[03:39] <KEEV> gavin_,  oh i thought you did :(
[03:40] <edkon> hi, I was wondering if someone knows how to make the irda port work on ubuntu Feisty?
[03:40] <SeriousStorm85> keev:- i have installed da nvidia driver using Envy
[03:40] <KEEV> you said your borders didnt work
[03:40] <gavin_> KEEV: SeriousStorm85 did
[03:40] <SeriousStorm85> will that cause a problem installin glx?
[03:40] <KEEV> oh sorry
[03:40] <KEEV> :x
[03:40] <luke__> y does dapper download very slowly?
[03:40] <nerdygirl_ellie> edkon: what are you using it for?  Just curious.
[03:40] <IndyGunFreak> luke__: because its ancient
[03:40] <luke__> kk
[03:40] <KEEV> SeriousStorm85, i forgot the command to type in teminal which adds a line to your xord.conf
[03:41] <IndyGunFreak> no seriously, it could be any number of reasons.
[03:41] <KEEV> however
[03:41] <luke__> i reallllllyyyyy need festy fawn to come right about now
[03:41] <edkon> I want to transfer files to a cellphone
[03:41] <KEEV> SeriousStorm85, join #ubuntu-effects
[03:41] <gavin_> once again, people I'm asking about audacity. Is anyone using it to record things successfully?
[03:41] <KEEV> they'll give you to commands
[03:41] <nerdygirl_ellie> edkon: neat!
[03:41] <cwgannon> anybody know of a tutorial or help file or something that explains where stuff is in ubuntu/linux -- as in, what folder stuff is in and whatnot?
[03:41] <nephish> hello all
[03:41] <nerdygirl_ellie> gavin_: He just checked mine and it locks right up.
[03:41] <|_ocke> im running an athlonXP 3000+ 512mb ram, geforce FX 5500 256mb, and sblive and via 8237 onboard, but i cant get the 8237 to not be default even though i disabled it in bios
[03:41] <SeriousStorm85> Keev:- u mean gksudo gedit xxxxxxxxxxx
[03:42] <nerdygirl_ellie> cwgannon: configs are usuallyy in /etc... are you looking for something in particular?
[03:42] <gavin_> nerdygirl_ellie: it doesn't work for you either?
[03:42] <KEEV> yes..
[03:42] <KEEV> but there is a command
[03:42] <kitche> cwgannon: you can read the FHS doc to learn how everything is layed out and do some more research after that
[03:42] <KEEV> that adds it for u
[03:42] <KEEV> 1sec
[03:42] <KEEV> i'm looking for u
[03:42] <{BFG}> i know what you are talking aobut keev
[03:42] <{BFG}> one sec
[03:42] <nerdygirl_ellie> gavin_: Nope.  It locks up.
[03:42] <cwgannon> no, i'm just trying to get a hang of where stuff is, so i know where to look
[03:42] <nephish> cwgannon_: this one helped me http://blog.lxpages.com/ultimate_linux.html
[03:42] <edkon> so what kind of tools can i use? is there a specific process to follow to make the irda port work?
[03:42] <cwgannon> nephish, et al: thank you
[03:42] <nephish> np
[03:43] <luke__> l8erds
[03:43] <SeriousStorm85> keev:- thanks i will join ubuntu-effects
[03:43] <gavin_> nerdygirl_ellie: It's so annoying how audio and video software for linux is horrrrrrrible... it never seems to work. Why is that?! Some day i'm going to learn how to code so i can fix that...
[03:43] <nerdygirl_ellie> gavin_: good idea!
[03:44] <kitche> gavin_: works here perfectly of course I don't run linux
[03:44] <jmitchj> hey guys, has anyone come across having wireless quit working after 2.6.16-20 upgrade?
[03:44] <nerdygirl_ellie> gavin_: I put some patches in evolution.  It's not that hard to learn.
[03:44] <gavin_> nerdygirl_ellie: do you have a realtek or nvidia card for your sound?
[03:44] <kraypius> yay i compiled something without using packages!
[03:44] <imac1> hello, lets say that my media folder has an impossible date of "1904" for its creation date, could that cause errors with mounting things such as the cd drive?
[03:44] <kraypius> except now the program is in some weird directory i compiled in and no command alias for the bin!
[03:44] <hatredx> Hi, I would like to ask a question with out using google or trying my self... is that ok? =p
[03:44] <gavin_> kitche: yeah, win/mac audacity is much better than linux audacity
[03:44] <nerdygirl_ellie> kraypius: does the program have a ./configure step?
[03:44] <underbear> ok.  gonna try another download again
[03:45] <kraypius> no
[03:45] <macabro23> what do you mean "wireless quit" ?
[03:45] <kraypius> nerdygirl_ellie, its git
[03:45] <nerdygirl_ellie> Never compiled it.
[03:45] <kraypius> o
[03:45] <{BFG}> sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals
[03:45] <{BFG}> if you have an nvidia card you can use the sudo nvidia-xconfig
[03:45] <nerdygirl_ellie> Then you can sudo updatedb && locate git | grep bin
[03:46] <kitche> gavin_: I don't use windows or a mac I use FreeBSD but audiacity always worked for me even on Linux before I dropped Linux
[03:46] <jmitchj> wireless connects in 16-15 but not in 16-20
[03:46] <nerdygirl_ellie> and ln -s (where it is) /usr/bin/
[03:46] <KEEV> BFG ty
[03:46] <kitche> kraypius: which git is this by chance git-core or the gnu tools
[03:46] <gavin_> kitche: oh, sorry (i hear freebsd people are always annoyed at not being recognized....) It's so annoying... maybe I need a different sound card...
[03:46] <kraypius> nerdygirl, i know where it is, i just dont like where it is and i cant run the git command from anywhere now
[03:47] <kraypius> kitche, git-core
[03:47] <kraypius> kitche, or both
[03:47] <eX|Joe> hey guys, does anyone use ktorrent's rss feature?  and if so, can you please give me some examples on how the "test" field works?
[03:47] <nerdygirl_ellie> kraypius: why didn't you use it out of apt?
[03:48] <kraypius> nerdygirl, version in repo is way out of date
[03:48] <omegacenti> lmao.
[03:48] <kitche> kraypius: your probably compiling git-core it's in the ubuntu repos
[03:49] <kraypius> nerdygirl, i needed 1.5.2, the repos have like 1.3
[03:49] <gavin_> has anyone ever heard of a replacement for audacity?
[03:49] <gavin_> that actually records?
[03:50] <nerdygirl_ellie> gavin_: I think it's something upstream of audacity, 'cause sound recorder does it too.
[03:50] <kitche> kraypius: ah git-1.5.2 is latest I haven't used git in a while so I didn't see what was new
[03:50] <IndyGunFreak> oh well, go figure.
[03:50] <gavin_> nerdygirl_ellie: what audio card do you use
[03:50] <{BFG}> ardour is a great editor
[03:50] <laser2> how name usb in /dev ?
[03:50] <{BFG}> with almost as many features as protools
[03:50] <omegacenti> whats the best CLI web broswer to date? I use links2.
[03:50] <kraypius> oops last message meant for u not nerdygirl
[03:50] <{BFG}> its kinda of a pain to setup though
[03:51] <KEEV> BFG
[03:51] <KEEV> huh?
[03:51] <KEEV> may i PM pls
[03:51] <KEEV> !
[03:51] <{BFG}> sure
[03:51] <laser2> wat's name usb in /dev?
[03:51] <kitche> kraypius: I used to use git myself when I worked on Source Mage but that was during last summer so I haven't really looked at it in a while :)
[03:51] <kitche> laser2: sdx usually
[03:51] <laser2> thank's
[03:51] <snowman> ok, so even with swat, I don't get a working smb install
[03:52] <gavin_> i'm restarting to see if that makes audacity work again
[03:52] <gavin_> bye guys
[03:52] <nerdygirl_ellie> gavin_: Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family)
[03:52] <nephish> are there any cli web browsers that use vim commands to navigate?
[03:52] <gavin_> nerdygirl_ellie: hmm... well it's not just one card then
[03:52] <nephish> also, what is the best cli irc client ?
[03:52] <gavin_> nerdygirl_ellie: because i have either nvidia or realtek
[03:52] <macd> eirssi
[03:52] <nerdygirl_ellie> !best
[03:52] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[03:52] <kitche> nephish: umm no since vim is not an OS :)
[03:52] <nerdygirl_ellie> and gaim.
[03:52] <macd> errr, nephish lots of people like irssi
[03:53] <kitche> nerdygirl_ellie: well considering there is only about 4 cli irc clients
[03:53] <laser2> How know what's port is plugged my pen bluetooth, what's command?
[03:53] <nephish> will check out irssi, thanks, doing more without a gui lately, but cant be outta here.
[03:53] <{BFG}> KEEV you were going to PM me something?
[03:53] <KEEV> I did
[03:53] <KEEV> :(
 whats this about pro tools?
 I have it!! can i set it up on nix?
 i have the mbox2 mini
[03:54] <|_ocke> nephish, many people say irssi is the est CLI irc client
[03:54] <imac1> hello, lets say that my media folder has an impossible date of "1904" for its creation date, could that cause errors with mounting things such as the cd drive?
[03:54] <kitche> laser2: dmesg
[03:54] <{BFG}> no protools for nix =[
[03:54] <KEEV> :((
[03:54] <Dr_willis> imac1,  id doubt it. Change the date with the 'touch' command if you want
[03:54] <KEEV> how about kingpin?
[03:54] <{BFG}> just for os x or xp/vista
[03:54] <{BFG}> i g2g
[03:55] <imac1> Dr_willis: thx
[03:55] <macd> imac1, dates only cause problems if theyre too far in the future
[03:55] <omegacenti> whats the best CLI web broswer to date? I use links2.
[03:55] <imac1> macd: hmm.....ok, thx
[03:55] <kitche> omegacenti: depends there is really only two that I know of links and lynx
[03:55] <nerdygirl_ellie> elinks
[03:56] <omegacenti> kitche: Which do you use?
[03:56] <omegacenti> nerdygirl_ellie: do you like it?
[03:56] <kitche> nerdygirl_ellie: yeah there is elinks to forgot that one :)
[03:56] <kraypius> kitche, im starting to think my compile didnt go so well actually
[03:56] <nerdygirl_ellie> omegacenti: I only use it when I need it, i.e. I broke the gui or I'm on a server.  for that it works skippily.
[03:56] <omegacenti> nerdygirl_ellie: Thanks :) aptting it now ^_^
[03:57] <omegacenti> !thanks | nerdygirl_ellie
[03:57] <ubotu> nerdygirl_ellie: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[03:57] <omegacenti> lol nm
[03:57] <omegacenti> hehehe
[03:57] <nerdygirl_ellie> :D
[03:57] <kkathman> how do you control the size of the icons on the desktop???
[03:57] <omegacenti> they should do counts for thanks / person
[03:57] <nerdygirl_ellie> karma?
[03:58] <erpo> kkathman: Right click on one of them, select resize, and drag it until it's the right size.
[03:58] <kkathman> ahh kewl ...didnt know that :)
[03:58] <kkathman> thanks erpo
[03:58] <nerdygirl_ellie> erpo: is there a way to do that for them all automagically?
[03:58] <kraypius> wtf http://pastebin.ca/554229
[03:59] <imac1> !fstab
[03:59] <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
[03:59] <deebus> anyone know how I can convert ogg to mp3?
[03:59] <kkathman> erpo  can you change the icon grid size on the desktop??
[03:59] <nephish> deebus, quick and dirty you can use audacity
[03:59] <Alan> is there any way to switch of the "you need to restart" style nags?
[04:00] <deebus> nephish:  audacity can do it?
[04:00] <erpo> kkathman: You mean, how far apart the icons are when you "clean up by name"?
[04:00] <kkathman> erpo:  yes
[04:00] <kitche> kraypius: why do you think that( I was busy in the ##slackware channel and watching my make buildworld compile
[04:00] <kraypius> http://pastebin.ca/554229
[04:00] <kkathman> erpo:  seems that the farthest left I can put an icon is pretty far into the screen for me
[04:00] <erpo> nerdygirl_ellie: Yes. You need to go to the "File Management Preferences" applet and you can set the default icon zoom level. This sets the icon zoom for all folders, though, not just for the desktop.
[04:01] <nerdygirl_ellie> Alan: restart? :D  You can kill the update-notifier process too.
[04:01] <imac1> if I have made a change to fstab, how do I apply it without rebooting?
[04:01] <kraypius> kitche, nm it works now
[04:01] <erpo> kkathman: Yes, I have a lot of gripes about the nautilus's treatment of icons, and that's one of them. You can, however, disable the grid.
[04:01] <nerdygirl_ellie> imac1: what kind of change, add a partition, change options?
[04:01] <kitche> imac1: mount -a
[04:01] <kkathman> yeah I saw that on the left click on the desktop
[04:02] <erpo> kkathman: You mean right click?
[04:02] <kkathman> oops yes...right click hehe
[04:02] <imac1> nerdgirl_ellie: change of options from noauto to auto for a mount operation for my cd drive
[04:02] <nerdygirl_ellie> This whole using a mouse in linux thing seems wrong.
[04:02] <nerdygirl_ellie> mount -a. :D
[04:02] <imac1> kitche: mount -a will apply all fstab changes?
[04:03] <Alan> nerdygirl_ellie, hmm, ok then :)
[04:03] <kitche> imac1: yeah
[04:04] <imac1> kitche, nerdygirl_ellie: I get the following error when I try "mount -a"   "mount: No medium found"
[04:04] <nerdygirl_ellie> hmm
[04:04] <atlantis> Is anyone naked tonight ?
[04:04] <kitche> imac1: you using sudo with it?
[04:04] <Shinto> no
[04:04] <imac1> kitche: yep
[04:04] <atlantis> Why not....
[04:04] <Shinto> Because Im trying out ubuntu?
[04:04] <josedawg> is there a utorrent-like client available for ubuntu?
[04:04] <atlantis> Someone send me some big-boob-pics
[04:05] <Shinto> ktorrent
[04:05] <atlantis> yah dumbass its call TORRENT
[04:05] <Shinto> i think is installed by default
[04:05] <KEEV> josedawg,
[04:05] <KEEV> yes
[04:05] <IndyGunFreak> atlantis: relax, there's plenty of rooms for your type of chat
[04:05] <nerdygirl_ellie> Moderator, atlantis needs a swift kick in the IRC.
[04:05] <Shinto> lol
[04:05] <nephish> deebus, yes, you have to have lame installed also, but you load the sound file in one format and export it as another.
[04:06] <KEEV> josedawg sudo apt-get install azureus
[04:06] <atlantis> I'm always relaxed bitch
[04:06] <IndyGunFreak> azureus isn't all that great.
[04:06] <IndyGunFreak> !ohmy
[04:06] <josedawg> azureus huh? was never a big fan of that resource hog on windows
[04:06] <Shinto> Its not bad
[04:06] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[04:06] <josedawg> is it better for linux?
[04:06] <IndyGunFreak> ktorrent rocks.
[04:06] <Shinto> josedawg: I think you mean Java runtime?
[04:06] <erpo> josedawg: No.
[04:07] <imac1> kitche, nerdygirl_ellie: any ideas as to why my "mount -a" failed?
[04:07] <erpo> josedawg: The answer is just no. In fact, it's worse.
[04:07] <nerdygirl_ellie> imac1: nope.
[04:07] <EADG> RTorrent ftw... nice light wirght client.
[04:07] <Shinto> I used uTorrent on windows
[04:07] <nerdygirl_ellie> you could mount -o remount,auto /dev/.... it
[04:07] <EADG> ... weight I should have said.
[04:07] <Shinto> was impressed with that
[04:07] <nerdygirl_ellie> (sudo of course.)
[04:07] <imac1> nerdrygirl_ellie: would rebooting accomplish the task too?
[04:07] <nerdygirl_ellie> if you want to take the easy way out!
[04:07] <josedawg> yeah, i liked utorrent on windows. azureus was a huge resource hog with multiple torrents open so i stopped using it.
[04:07] <nerdygirl_ellie> :D
[04:08] <erpo> fwiw, rtorrent is a text-only client.
[04:08] <josedawg> ok, i'll check out ktorrent
[04:08] <Shinto> heh, anyone brave enough to walk a noob through installing ATI drivers?
[04:08] <dinkle> what is the best program to use for backing up dvds
[04:08] <dinkle> ?
[04:08] <Shinto> dinkle, cc
[04:08] <KEEV> sure
[04:08] <nerdygirl_ellie> Slay dragon: yes.  Ati Drivers: no.
[04:08] <erpo> Shinto: Do you mean dd?
[04:08] <noiesmo> dinkle, k9copy
[04:08] <KEEV> Shinto, just Dl the driver! it's a self installer i'm sure.
[04:08] <imac1> nerdrygirl_ellie: would rebooting accomplish the task of applying fstab changes too?
[04:08] <erpo> dinkle: wine+DVD Decrypter.
[04:08] <Shinto> erpo: yes :P
[04:09] <nerdygirl_ellie> dinkle: you want to shrink it to CD size, or just back it up?
[04:09] <noiesmo> !k9copy
[04:09] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[04:09] <dinkle> i appreciate it guys i'm having issues with some newer dvds copying. thinking maybe its better protected?
[04:09] <nerdygirl_ellie> << Has used dvdshrink with limited success.
[04:09] <kitche> !ati | Shinto
[04:10] <ubotu> Shinto: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:10] <imac1> dinkle: you can use vlc player for ripping dvd's
[04:10] <Shinto> ubotu: thanks mate :)
[04:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about thanks mate :) - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:10] <Quall> Hi
[04:10] <Quall> Anyone able to help with Dial Up access in Ubuntu?
[04:10] <imac1> Quall: you may have to look into "linuxant" drivers
[04:11] <Naisenu> I installed the Kubuntu & Xubuntu metapackages. Going back to Gnome, I think the KDM is being loaded and used instead of GDM. Lots of k-prefixed processes in "top" - how do I switch it back to GDM?
[04:11] <cwgannon> what's the ubuntu equivalent of ctrl+alt+delete?
[04:11] <Quall> imac1: linuxant drivers? What are they?
[04:11] <kitche> Naisenu: sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[04:11] <imac1> Quall: if I remember correctly, dial-up modem drivers don't usually work in linux, linuxant develops drivers, but you have to pay :(
[04:11] <nerdygirl_ellie> cwgannon: ctrl-alt-backspace restarts x windows
[04:11] <erpo> cwgannon: There is no equivalent, sadly.
[04:11] <kitche> Naisenu: also there is some kernel processes that have k in the name :)
[04:11] <Quall> Gah shizer
[04:11] <KEEV> !ubuntu paste
[04:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntu paste - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:12] <erpo> cwgannon: Look into the magic sysrq key combos.
[04:12] <cwgannon> what's the command to see the running apps and processes?
[04:12] <KEEV> !paste
[04:12] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[04:12] <erpo> cwgannon: ps aux
[04:12] <Naisenu> ... would this also be what's causing my User Switcher not to be working?
[04:12] <erpo> cwgannon: gnome-system-monitor
[04:12] <kitche> cwgannon: there is couple myself I use top
[04:12] <nerdygirl_ellie> cwgannon: if you have something hung, you can ctrl-alt-(f1,f2...) to go to a command line and run top or us ps auxwww
[04:13] <cwgannon> awesome, thank you
[04:13] <nerdygirl_ellie> yw
[04:13] <Naisenu> I ran the command line given by Kitche, going to restart X ...
[04:14] <cwgannon> is there a command to bring up the terminal?
[04:14] <standfire> hey can anyone help me get wine running? i am new to linux
[04:14] <Ahadiel> standfire: sudo apt-get install wine
[04:14] <erpo> cwgannon: Ubuntu menu -> Accessories -> Terminal
[04:14] <KEEV> crossover > wine
[04:14] <mrsn0> cwgannon alt+f2 > type gnome-terminal
[04:14] <SeriousStorm85> crld:- u there
[04:14] <Quall> Ubuntu identifies my modem in hardware, it is a winmodem (?). But I dont know how to set it up properly...
[04:14] <standfire> i installed the packet, but i can't find it anywhere in my root folder
[04:14] <omegacenti> Is this still true? There are several special keys interpreted directly by the LINUX console or text mode interface. The Ctrl-Alt-Del combination initiates a complete shutdown and hardware reboot, which is the preferred method of restarting LINUX.
[04:15] <SeriousStorm85> crdlb:- u there
[04:15] <KEEV> SeriousStorm85,
[04:15] <KEEV> look
[04:15] <kraypius> need some help.. trying to compile this thing and i dont understand the errors: http://pastebin.ca/554241
[04:15] <KEEV> paste you terminal here
[04:15] <KEEV> gnome-terminal
[04:15] <KEEV> er
[04:15] <KEEV> !paste
[04:15] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[04:15] <nerdygirl_ellie> omegacenti: in text mode, yes.... or shutdown now -r
[04:15] <KEEV>  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[04:15] <SeriousStorm85> i have pasted it http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24928/
[04:15] <KEEV> paste it here
[04:15] <crdlb> SeriousStorm85, #ubuntu-effects
[04:15] <KEEV> oh
[04:15] <KEEV> ok
[04:15] <imac1> standfire: to view the hidden files in gnome, just click view, show hidden files, and then open the folder ".WINE" to see wine's folder
[04:15] <erpo> omegacenti: Yes, the key being they are interpreted by the text mode interface.
[04:15] <omegacenti> nerdygirl_ellie: so if I were to hit that in a terminal in gnome.. it would shutdown my computer?
[04:16] <omegacenti> erpo: so I would have to be in something like tty1
[04:16] <nerdygirl_ellie> omegacenti: terminal != text mode interface.
[04:16] <erpo> omegacenti: No. The text mode interface is what you get when you hit ctrl+alt+F1
[04:16] <erpo> omegacenti: If you try it, hit alt+F7 to come back to the GUi.
[04:16] <erpo> *GUI.
[04:16] <omegacenti> nerdygirl_ellie: what is the correct name of something ,ike what is at ctrl alt f1?
[04:16] <GrueTamer> a tty
[04:16] <standfire> wow... thanks imacl...
[04:16] <omegacenti> okay
[04:17] <standfire> i appreciate the help
[04:17] <omegacenti> so tty1 is ctrl alt fq
[04:17] <omegacenti> so tty1 is ctrl alt f1
[04:17] <imac1> nerdygirl_ellie: mount -o remount,auto /dev/ didn't work, so, would rebooting apply all fstab changes?
[04:17] <GrueTamer> omegacenti: yes
[04:17] <cwgannon> say i'm in the terminal and i run gnome-system-monitor -- how can i run another command in the terminal without having to close the system monitor?
[04:17] <GrueTamer> tty2 is ctrl alt f2
[04:17] <nerdygirl_ellie> imac1: yes
[04:17] <omegacenti> GrueTamer: k :) interesting name btw.
[04:17] <GrueTamer> but if youre in the tty's, just alt f<whatever> will go to the other tty's
[04:17] <Naisenu> Heh - X restarted... how do I tell which display manager it's using?
[04:17] <GrueTamer> omegacenti: danke
[04:17] <imac1> nerdygirl_ellie: ok thx a bunch :)
[04:17] <nerdygirl_ellie> cwgannon: put an & on the end of the command to background it.
[04:17] <Naisenu> Still, I have no User Switcher
[04:17] <kraypius> oh i think i know whats going on. how do I install my kernel's source?
[04:18] <nerdygirl_ellie> cwgannon: Or... press ctrl-z and then bg to background it after it is running.
[04:18] <GrueTamer> kraypius: uh...make install or something after the menuconfig process
[04:18] <GrueTamer> i havent done that in awhile, hard to remember exactly
[04:18] <cretep> is there anyone here who knows about weird video problems w gnome on thinkpads?
[04:18] <kraypius> gruetamer, you are speaking of what i am trying to accomplish with the wifi?
[04:19] <omegacenti> Is it ctrl pgeup and pgdn that scrolls terminal or tty or is it shift pgup and dn?
[04:19] <nerdygirl_ellie> shift
[04:19] <kraypius> i have a feeling im about 2 steps away from breaking everything
[04:19] <GrueTamer> kraypius: you talked about installing kernels source
[04:19] <kraypius> gruetamer, apt cant do it?
[04:19] <GrueTamer> might be able to
[04:20] <kraypius> gruetamer, i just need the source files
[04:20] <GrueTamer> oh
[04:20] <GrueTamer> i thought you wanted to compile a custom kernel
[04:20] <cretep> ok, will try ano day
[04:20] <GrueTamer> uh, it might be sudo aptitude install linux-generic or something
[04:20] <jscinoz> hey guys, kind of off topic but i'm reapplying thermal paste to my lappy's CPU and i noticed this other thing that used to have thermal paste, its about 1inch square and has four large chips on it, what is this the GPU?
[04:20] <nerdygirl_ellie> kraypius:  apt can do source files ... apt source package..
[04:20] <Kaitlyn2004> Anyone able to help me? I installed Ubunut, and after it prompted to restart + eject cd.. now it boots up SUPER (SUPER) slow and I can't get past the login screen
[04:20] <anandanbu> How do i change the default GRUB image in ubuntu 7.04
[04:21] <nerdygirl_ellie> kraypius: if you just need to build a kernel module, you only need kernel-headers
[04:21] <jscinoz> Kaitlin, can you boot it again and press control alt F1 as soon as you see the boot splash
[04:21] <jscinoz> tell me any errors you see
[04:21] <Kaitlyn2004> Press taht as soon as I see the Ubuntu with the orange loading bar?
[04:22] <jscinoz> yes
[04:22] <omegacenti> What is control + D?
[04:22] <dragonmc> I just wanna say you guys are doing a great job.  I can't believe how friendly the ubuntu community, and in particular this channel, is.
[04:22] <omegacenti> dragonmc: I agree :)
[04:22] <nerdygirl_ellie> omegacenti: End of File.  it will close a terminal session if you have one open.
[04:22] <Kaitlyn2004> no resume image, doing normal boot
[04:22] <kraypius> nerdygirl, i think im trying to make a kernel patch
[04:22] <Kaitlyn2004> starting a bunc  of stuff... ok...
[04:23] <omegacenti> nerdygirl_ellie: good way to end a cat command to right?

[04:24] <jscinoz> what are the specs of this machine?
[04:24] <amicrawler> how to install deb files

[04:24] <amicrawler> .deb
[04:24] <nerdygirl_ellie> kraypius: neat!....  Yes, you need the kernel-headers package, not the whole kernel source.
[04:24] <jscinoz> what graphics card?
 I just wanna say you guys are doing a great job.  I can't believe how friendly the ubuntu community, and in particular this channel, is. <-- makes helping just that bit easier :-)
[04:25] <Kaitlyn2004> jscinoz: I am not 100% sure...
[04:25] <jscinoz> nvidia or ATI?
[04:25] <anandanbu> Does anybody know how to change the default GRUB splash image in Ubuntu 7.04
[04:25] <Kaitlyn2004> nVidia
[04:25] <jscinoz> or mobo onboard
[04:25] <nerdygirl_ellie> amicrawler: dpkg -i yadayada.deb
[04:25] <Kaitlyn2004> actually
[04:25] <jscinoz> alright
[04:25] <Kaitlyn2004> i think its onboard
[04:25] <Kaitlyn2004> a dell
[04:25] <jscinoz> ah
[04:25] <jscinoz> when did you get it? recently or a while ago
[04:25] <nerdygirl_ellie> Kaitlyn2004: lspci will tell you what video card you have.
[04:25] <Kaitlyn2004> nope its not onboard
[04:26] <omegacenti> anandanbu: if you find out I would like to know too. I don't like a plain black background.
[04:26] <Kaitlyn2004> nerdygirl_ellie: how do I get to where I can run lspci?
[04:26] <kraypius> cool, found headers
[04:26] <jscinoz> terminal or console
[04:26] <Kaitlyn2004> jscinoz: its fairly old
[04:26] <jscinoz> since yu cant log on use console
[04:26] <Kaitlyn2004> its NOT onboard... but...
[04:26] <imac1> okay...I'm having a strange errror now, with my cd drive,would someone be willing to look at my fstab entry from my cd drive and see what could be wrong?
[04:26] <jscinoz> ctrl alt f1, then type lspci
[04:26] <jscinoz> sorry, lspci|less
[04:26] <Kaitlyn2004> okay
[04:26] <jscinoz> that way you can scroll
[04:26] <nerdygirl_ellie> Kaitlyn2004: Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal ... then run lspci
[04:26] <jscinoz> Kaitlyn cant get past the logon screen
[04:26] <anandanbu> ok omegacenti i would let you know
[04:27] <omegacenti> thanks anandanbu
[04:27] <kraypius> nerdygirl, im getting: Kernel Makefile not found at '/lib/modules/2.6.17-11-generic/source/
[04:27] <Kaitlyn2004> when I do lspci|less I get login incorrect
[04:27] <jscinoz> you have to login first :P
[04:27] <kraypius> when i do make patch_kernel
[04:27] <jscinoz> use the usename and and password you made when you installed it
[04:27] <Kaitlyn2004> I should also point out that even in this console window, it lags my input..
[04:27] <andrewbryson> well spotted jscinoz :P
[04:28] <hikenboot> greetings all --- on my ubuntu system I am trying to fdisk a flash drive I am getting the following error Re-reading the partion table failed with error 16 device or resource busy..any ideas how i find what is locking it?
[04:28] <Kaitlyn2004> oh boy
[04:28] <Kaitlyn2004> a long lis lol
[04:28] <nerdygirl_ellie> hikenboot: Is ubuntu automounting it?  (icon on the desktop?)
[04:28] <Naisenu> How can I get user switcher back on gnome?
[04:28] <jscinoz> kaitlyn once you've logged in at console, do this command: cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/temperature
[04:28] <linuxor> hi, Why my konqueror is too slow to scroll??
[04:28] <Kaitlyn2004> GeForce MX420
[04:29] <jscinoz> you're compy may be overheating.
[04:29] <Kaitlyn2004> *geForce4 MX420
[04:29] <jscinoz> alright let me check if there are any known issues with that card.
[04:29] <nerdygirl_ellie> hikenboot: if so, right-click and go to "unmount"
[04:29] <imac1> would anyone be willing to look at my fstab entry for my cd drive to see what is wrong with it :) ?
[04:29] <hikenboot> ah thanks that was stupid of me .
[04:29] <Kaitlyn2004> how do I get "out" of this to type another command?
[04:29] <jscinoz> press  q
[04:30] <Kaitlyn2004> i tried ctrl+q :)
[04:30] <jscinoz> hang on a sec i need to open firefox to check that card, might overheat me :P
[04:30] <jscinoz> just q by itself
[04:30] <kraypius> damn i cant find anything on this error
[04:31] <omegacenti> nerdygirl_ellie: elinks is REALLY nice. thanks for the recomendation!
[04:31] <nerdygirl_ellie> kraypius: go ahead and install the full kernel source.
[04:31] <Kaitlyn2004> doing that long cat command i get no file/director
[04:31] <nerdygirl_ellie> omegacenti: yw!
[04:31] <excitatory> So does anyone else experience random hard freezes in feisty?  I've been exhaustively searching various forums, mailing lists, and bug reports and are finding piles of users with the very same problem.  It tends to be independent of the video card and if desktop effects are enabled or not.
[04:31] <uberushaximus> I have them once in a very short while in gutsy...
[04:31] <jscinoz> alright do this, cd /proc/acpi
[04:32] <kraypius> nerdygirl, is that kernel-image?
[04:32] <jscinoz> then do an ls and tell me if any sound like temperature/thermal
[04:32] <nerdygirl_ellie> excitatory: I did when I used the nvidia binary driver and beryl  .
[04:32] <Kaitlyn2004> thermal_zone is blue
[04:32] <Pelo> tonight's episode of DrWho made the rest of the season worth it
[04:32] <Kaitlyn2004> and also a video which is blue
[04:32] <omegacenti> How do you get a background image on grub?
[04:33] <kraypius> nerdygirl, i mean linux-image rather
[04:33] <nerdygirl_ellie> excitatory: not at all since going to the stock nvidia from restricted and turning off desktop effects.
[04:33] <jscinoz> alright do, cd thermal_zone, then do an ls again
[04:33] <Pelo> omegacenti, search for grub on gnome-looks.org  some of the available images have insctructions in the discription
[04:33] <jscinoz> and tell me the output
[04:33] <Kaitlyn2004> nothing in there
[04:33] <omegacenti> Pelo:  Thanks :)
[04:34] <hikenboot> nerdygirl_ellie,  there is no option to unmount it only eject it in which case fdisk is unable to open it
[04:34] <Pelo> omegacenti, come back when you've screwed it up and I'll help you fix it
[04:34] <excitatory> nerdygirl_ellie: yea, im using ati, default driver and it happens with or without beryl
[04:34] <Kaitlyn2004> seems there is nothing in anyy of the directories
[04:34] <slackmagic> omegacenti: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=203093
[04:34] <omegacenti> Pelo: lol
[04:34] <omegacenti> slackmagic: checking it out
[04:34] <jscinoz> ok forget that then, your compy doesnt have any thermometres.. let me just find that GPU driver for you now, i need to figure out if its legacy or new
[04:34] <jscinoz> probably legacy but i need to make sure
[04:35] <Kaitlyn2004> okay
[04:35] <Kaitlyn2004> haha its an old dell
[04:35] <Kaitlyn2004> go figure it wouldn't have any sensors :)
[04:35] <omegacenti> Do I have Uspalsh by default if I have grub?
[04:35] <omegacenti> Usplash*
[04:35] <jscinoz> ok can you run this command, sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[04:35] <jscinoz> it'll ask for your password when you press enter
[04:36] <SeriousStorm85> Hi, I am having trouble with my external tv card (Wintv-USB) setting it up with tvtime and vlc.They are able to detect my card but not show the source which is the composite
[04:36] <jscinoz> it'll then download and install the driver i hope
[04:36] <Zemus> What's a single command for adding user "george" to the sudoers list, logged in as root?
[04:36] <Pelo> omegacenti, usplash and grub background are seperate things
[04:36] <hikenboot> figured it out thanks
[04:37] <Kaitlyn2004> its taking a while..
[04:37] <slackmagic> omegacenti: unless you're not comfortable to recompile your kernel, you're probably better off just changing grub's image
[04:37] <Kaitlyn2004> .. I don't have it connected to any lan...
[04:37] <KEEV> Zemus..
[04:37] <omegacenti> slackmagic: thanks
[04:37] <omegacenti> slackmagic: was confused as to wht it was talking about usplash in the grub section.

[04:37] <omegacenti> Pelo: Thanks :)
[04:37] <imac1> would some tell me if there is anything wrong with this fstab line:  /dev/hdb        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,auto     0       0
[04:37] <nerdygirl_ellie> Zeus:  echo george    ALL=(ALL) ALL >> /etc/sudoers
[04:38] <omegacenti> what if I don't have /boot/grub/splashimages. Should I mkdir?
[04:38] <Zemus> nerdygirl_ellie, thanks :)
[04:38] <jrib> Zemus: you can just add the user to the "sudoers" group
[04:38] <jrib> Zemus: you can just add the user to the "admin" group, ignore my last comment...
[04:38] <jscinoz> Kaitlyn alright.. that could be a problem >_<
[04:38] <slackmagic> omegacenti:  i personally wouldn't worry about any of the splashes or real eyecandy stuff as long as everything works, but then again i'm on lilo and slackware :D
[04:38] <Zemus> nerdygirl_ellie, does it need to have the odd spacing, or can it just be echo george ALL=(ALL) ALL >> /etc/sudoers
[04:38] <Kaitlyn2004> jscinoz: lemme connect one and reboot
[04:39] <omegacenti> slackmagic: I like the eye candy XD
[04:39] <jscinoz> wait
[04:39] <Kaitlyn2004> ya?
[04:39] <Pelo> omegacenti,   the /splashimages/ part is not mandatory
[04:39] <jscinoz> when you ran the livecd, did it work properly?
[04:39] <hikenboot> never mind that didnt work nerdygirl_ellie  eject is the only option and then fdisk cant see it what am i doing wrong?
[04:39] <slackmagic> omegacenti: i can't afford to have too much eyecandy with my 5 year old system P4 1.3 ghz and 512 RDdam :P
[04:39] <jscinoz> or did you have to use failsafe graphics?
[04:39] <omegacenti> Pelo: Then what do you recommend? just put the umages in /boot/grub?
[04:39] <Kaitlyn2004> it ran perfectly fine
[04:39] <Kaitlyn2004> nope
[04:39] <Pelo> omegacenti, start by getting the right kind of image from  gnome-looks.org
[04:39] <omegacenti> slackmagic: ew.
[04:39] <omegacenti> Pelo: K.
[04:39] <Kaitlyn2004> it booted into ubuntu JUST FINE... which is where I clicked the "INSTALL"..
[04:39] <Kaitlyn2004> and that went fine too
[04:40] <Kaitlyn2004> and I also had tried the "alternate cd"
[04:40] <Pelo> omegacenti, don'T unpack it , just put the file as is in the /boot/grub/ folder
[04:40] <mrsn0> nn
[04:40] <KEEV> YEa
[04:40] <omegacenti> Pelo: will do, would it harm to put it in a folder named spalshimages inside /boot/grub?
[04:40] <KEEV> thats a question
[04:40] <Zemus> jrib, right, but I'm not sure. It has to be a single command, like what nerdygirl said. :P
[04:40] <KEEV> !
[04:40] <jscinoz> I have no idea what it is now, if the live CD worked then the installed should run fine
[04:40] <|-David-|> Hey, I'm on the live CD, and I don't have permission to write to the filesystem for my ubuntu installation, is there some command i can run in terminal to copy a file over to the filesystem?
[04:40] <jrib> Zemus: sudo adduser george admin
[04:40] <Thorne> i installed ubuntu studio, pure sex
[04:41] <Zemus> That's it? Wow. Easy. Thanks.
[04:41] <Kaitlyn2004> jscinoz: I redid the install too :(
[04:41] <Kaitlyn2004> should I try downloading that driver?
[04:41] <KEEV> how can i take my old kernal out of the boot menu like what i start my pc.. i can choose between old kernal and new???
[04:41] <Zemus> And that puts you in the sudoers group?
[04:41] <jscinoz> only suggestion now is to connect your lan run, sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[04:41] <jscinoz> and see if that works
[04:41] <Pelo> omegacenti,  no it won'T cause any arm it is just superfluous if you only have the one image, you can'T realy rotate them
[04:41] <Kaitlyn2004> oky will do that
[04:41] <Thorne> KEEV:  yes but i wouldnt if i were you
[04:41] <omegacenti> Pelo:  might have more than one. I am going to put it in spashimages then :)
[04:41] <jrib> Zemus: no, in the "admin" group.  The "admin" group has sudo privileges in /etc/sudoers by default
[04:41] <snowman> Hi there folks, anyone got a moment to help with apache and/or virtualhosts and/or wordpress under feisty?
[04:41] <jscinoz> What is the max safe CPU temp on a laptop?
[04:42] <slackmagic> KEEV: you'd have to play around with     /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:42] <Torahteen> OT: Anyone know of a freenode channel where I can ask general PC questions?
[04:42] <Thorne> about 75 celsius i think
[04:42] <snowman> jscinoz, depends heavily on the cpu type.
[04:42] <Pelo> Torahteen, #hardware maybe,
[04:42] <jscinoz> Single core centrino 1.8ghz
[04:42] <snowman> jscinoz, my dell lattitude p3 1ghz is only rated up to about 55
[04:42] <jscinoz> it runs at 59C idle, 79 load
[04:42] <snowman> jscinoz, for a centrino, that's not bad.
[04:42] <Torahteen> TY Pelo :)
[04:43] <Thorne> does your fan run all the time?
[04:43] <Zemus> jrib, thanks :)
[04:43] <jscinoz> Only when it goes above 65
[04:43] <jrib> Zemus: np
[04:43] <Pelo> Torahteen, knowing the actual question might help us properly direct you
[04:43] <omegacenti> Pelo: so do something like this? splashimage=(hd1,1)/boot/grub/splashimages/splash.xpm?
[04:43] <bonemaster69> has anyone here used the dell ubuntu laptop yet?
[04:43] <jscinoz> is that ok?
[04:44] <Pelo> omegacenti, looks about right,  check in your menu.lst file and tell me what the (hd?,?) of your ubuntu boot listing is
[04:44] <omegacenti> Pelo: one sec.
[04:44] <omegacenti> is that an I or and L in lst
[04:44] <Kaitlyn2004> wow my cable is SUCH a tight fit! haha
[04:44] <bonemaster69> i haven't seen any reviews for the dell ubuntu laptop yet
[04:45] <Pelo> omegacenti,   sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst   just copy paste that command
[04:45] <omegacenti> Pelo: K
[04:45] <bonemaster69> lol
[04:45] <ori> how do I downgrade from wine 0.9.38 to 0.9.37?
[04:45] <Pelo> bonemaster69, it's a dell , not even ubuntu can save it
[04:45] <omegacenti> Pelo: what is savedefault in grub mean?
[04:46] <bonemaster69> oh shit
[04:46] <SeriousStorm85> Having a problem setting tvtime or vlc to use the composite of my external tv card (wintv-USB)
[04:46] <bonemaster69> so much for linux saving the world
[04:46] <porkchop_> I'm booting the ubuntu 7.04 cd on a thinkpad a20p. Couldn't get it working, playing with vga= options and acpi options. I removed the "silent" option from the kernel arguements and I can watch the boot... it stops right after squashfs module is loaded. Any guesses as to what I should try?
[04:46] <omegacenti> Pelo: I have a problem where the one that is highlighted first in Grub is not the one I use to boot into the system. I have to manually push down arrow and select the kernel I want.
[04:46] <Pelo> omegacenti,  means "don'T touch this line if you still want windows to boot"
[04:46] <Thorne> lol Pelo
[04:46] <omegacenti> Pelo: I don't have windows any more :) Its dead...
[04:47] <snowdonkey> Hi.  I'm having trouble with a slow Xterm.  It takes about 10 seconds for prompt to come up and another 10 to shut down once I hit the X.
[04:47] <Pelo> omegacenti, you can move the grub menu entry you want to boot by default to the first positon,  just make sure you move all the related lines
[04:47] <Kaitlyn2004> great I can't get back to the console lol
[04:47] <Thorne> what gdm are you using snowdonkey
[04:47] <omegacenti> Pelo: Okay, so I will move its whole entry in menu.lst before the one that is first. Got it.
[04:48] <snowdonkey> thorne: Well actually I'm using Kubuntu but we couldn't solve it in #kubuntu.
[04:48] <Thorne> hm i need to make coffee
[04:48] <slackmagic> SeriousStorm85: does tvtime start?
[04:48] <Pelo> omegacenti, do you still hve windows installed and it just can'T boot from grub ? or is your windows just borked ?
[04:48] <Thorne> snowdonkey:  i had that prob in kde also
[04:48] <Thorne> not just ubuntu mind you
[04:49] <snowdonkey> thorne: I see.  Were you able to fix it?
[04:49] <Thorne> i think its something to do with kde in genereal
[04:49] <Thorne> no
[04:49] <Thorne> i installed gnome
[04:49] <Pelo> Thorne,  put coffee in filter,  poor boiling water in the filter make sure you have a container below the filter to received the coffee
[04:49] <Thorne> lol
[04:49] <Kaitlyn2004> jscinoz: how do I know if its even downloading it?
[04:49] <Thorne> ty pelo :D
[04:49] <snowdonkey> thorne: lol, great.  :)
[04:49] <SeriousStorm85> slackmagic:- yes it does, it says no source.....but when it starts my tv card shows a red light indicating its been detected by da rpgram
[04:49] <bonemaster69> lol
[04:49] <Kaitlyn2004> i ran the command.. goes to blank line, but doesn't exactly look like its downloading it...
[04:49] <Thorne> well ive always prefered gnome
[04:49] <omegacenti> Pelo: My windows is destroyed. rm'ed.. deleted. Killed. Stabbed with a knife while yelling die die die.
[04:49] <Thorne> just wante to try out kde
[04:49] <nerdygirl_ellie> omegacenti: yeah!
[04:50] <Pelo> omegacenti,  wow you realy wanted to get rid of it
[04:50] <omegacenti> nerdygirl_ellie: Liked that eh?
[04:50] <bonemaster69> what do you guys think is better: xterm, aterm, or rxvt?
[04:50] <Thorne> kde its too much of a memory hog also
[04:50] <slackmagic> SeriousStorm85: it's been a long time since i set up tvtime, now i just use it to watch TV ...pressing i while tvtime is runnig will switch from television, to composite1, then s-video and then composite-3 i believe..give that a try yet?
[04:50] <Pelo> omegacenti, pastebin your menu.lst file when you are done so I can have a look at it
[04:50] <Kaitlyn2004> jscinoz: ya there?
[04:50] <nerdygirl_ellie> omegacenti: I ordered this laptop from Dell with Freedos.  Windows never touched that.
[04:50] <Thorne> hm anyone here run fluxbox on feisty yet?
[04:50] <omegacenti> Pelo: okay, my ubuntu default is (hd0,3)
[04:50] <bluefoxicy> ok I give up
[04:50] <omegacenti> nerdygirl_ellie: nice :)
[04:50] <superkirbyartist> Is there a way that I can use an animated gif as an Ubuntu background?
[04:51] <snowdonkey> thorne: Ok, well can you suggest a stab in the dark of where I might start?  Switching to gnome won't happen.  :-/
[04:51] <bluefoxicy> I can't figure out the command to change from nvidia-glx to standard glx
[04:51] <omegacenti> nerdygirl_ellie: I am a recent convert. :)
[04:51] <bluefoxicy> without uninstalling the nvidia GLX extension
[04:51] <dino__> HP NX6325 how to resolve problem with alsa headphone jack
[04:51] <Pelo> omegacenti, then in your splashimage line you want the  (hd1,1) to be  (hd0,3)
[04:51] <omegacenti> Pelo: k
[04:51] <bluefoxicy> does anyone know?  it's apparently not update-glx or update-opengl or update-nviida
[04:51] <slackmagic> Thorne: not on feisty/ubuntu..but on slack :D
[04:51] <Thorne> snowdonkey: truthfully i dont know , but i was wondering why you wont use gnome
[04:51] <Pelo> omegacenti,  and ddon'T put the splashimage line at the end of the file,  put it near the top right after  the hiddenmen  line
[04:51] <Eagleray> Hi, I am looking for a CLI AACplus-v2 encoder, and have been unable to find one - can anyone point me in the right direction?
[04:51] <Thorne> yea i run flux on my slack box
[04:51] <omegacenti> Pelo: where the heck should I put: splashimage=(hd0,3)/boot/grub/spalshimages/splash.xpm?
[04:52] <Thorne> thats why i was wondering
[04:52] <superkirbyartist> Is there a way that I can use an animated GIF as an Ubuntu background?
[04:52] <omegacenti> Pelo: lol thanks :)
[04:52] <snowdonkey> thorne: It's not as configurable as I'd like, but the latest gnome I tried was Dapper so maybe some things changed.
[04:52] <Thorne> superkirbyartist: not htat i know of
[04:52] <Pelo> omegacenti, looks good,  as long as the image is called splash.xpm
[04:52] <nerdygirl_ellie> Flux is pretty.    I am not that ambitious though.
[04:52] <superkirbyartist> Thorne: Can I make the background change by itself?
[04:52] <SeriousStorm85> slackmagic:- Other than no source , it says frames to short from USB vision (cannot open capture device /dev/video0......selecting i does nothing as well)
[04:52] <slackmagic> snowdonkey: you mean fluxbox wasn't as configurable?
[04:52] <Thorne> well gnome seems a lot more configurable to me than kde but i guess it depends on taste though
[04:53] <dino__> anybody have problem with ALSA - headphone jack doesn't mute speakers on HP laptops
[04:53] <snowdonkey> slackmagic: I haven't tried fluxbox
[04:53] <Thorne> superkirbyartist:  you might be able to write a script for it
[04:53] <superkirbyartist> Thorne, yes or no?
[04:53] <nerdygirl_ellie> 16 minutes of battery left.
[04:53] <Thorne> like macosx?
[04:53] <slackmagic> SeriousStorm85: how did you install the card's driver/modules? did you follow some people's guides that have installed it successfully by googling for it?
[04:53] <superkirbyartist> Thorne, how?
[04:53] <superkirbyartist> !background
[04:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about background - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:53] <Dr_willis> Thorne,  youve not looked in depth at kde then. :)  Thers some  neat things one can do.
[04:53] <Pelo> dino__,  I think there is a jacksense switch you need to check in  the sound dialog box
[04:53] <Thorne> Dr_willis: i used it for like 4 mos
[04:53] <CokeMan> where are fonts stored?
[04:53] <Dr_willis> Thorne,  but a lot of it is not for the 'casual user'  Koisk mode stuff and so forth.
[04:54] <Pelo> superkirbyartist,  I think you can have random backgrounds if you use f-spot
[04:54] <|-David-|> I'm trying to write to my filesystem using the live CD, but I don't have permission...any ideas, like command lines I can run?
[04:54] <dino__> thnx, i'll try to find it
[04:54] <Pelo> CokeMan,  locate  fonts
[04:54] <SeriousStorm85> slackmagic:- yes.....i have installed it using some instructions by people sayin install usbvision etc
[04:54] <Thorne> well im just used to gnome, does what i want it to do so lol
[04:54] <nerdygirl_ellie> |-David-|: What filesystem, ntfs/fat/?
[04:54] <Pelo> |-David-|,    sudo chmod 755 /patch
[04:54] <Thorne> ill post a screenie
[04:54] <Dr_willis> Thorne,  thats the Linux mantra. :) im getting where I like "matchbox" in some cases even.. and its.. really out there in ways
[04:55] <|-David-|> Pelo: I can run that in Live CD?
[04:55] <kraypius> can someone please do apt-get update and tell me if any repos are down. im having apt connection issues
[04:55] <Pelo> |-David-|, yes , in the terminal
[04:55] <superkirbyartist> Polo, no offence, but f-spot reminds me of g-spot.  Is that where the name was fetched?
[04:55] <|-David-|> thanks pelo, you've been a big help =)
[04:55] <Kaitlyn2004> anyone know when i CTRL+ALT+F1 and log in, even that seems to be quite laggy?
[04:55] <dino__> can't find jacksense switch
[04:55] <omegacenti> Pelo: I am having a problem, when I try and save splash.xpm to /boot/grub/splashimages/ from Firefox it looks like it went okay.. however when I ls in splashimages its not there...
[04:56] <Pelo> |-David-|, sarcasm isn'T very kind
[04:56] <|-David-|> I wasn't being sarcastic o.O
[04:56] <calm> in feisty, do you have to register the "unrar" package after 40 days? (the package description for unrar no longer says "This program is shareware and you must register it after 40 days of use", but the package description for "rar" still says that.)
[04:56] <slackmagic> SeriousStorm85: i don't think it's tvtime, so it's gotta be your driver/modules or even something that is required to be loaded via kernel which isn't...
[04:56] <Pelo> omegacenti, try with just synaptic
[04:56] <soyporti> hello to the ubuntu tribe!
[04:56] <omegacenti> Pelo: what do you mean?
[04:56] <Pelo> omegacenti,  I mean try just with nautilus
[04:56] <omegacenti> Pelo: look for the file?
[04:56] <|-David-|> You've helped me like 6 times since I've started Ubuntu, lol
[04:57] <Pelo> omegacenti, yes
[04:57] <omegacenti> Pelo: don't see it. Weird!
[04:57] <superkirbyartist> Pelo, can you answer my simple question, please?
[04:57] <Pelo> |-David-|,  ;-)
[04:57] <Thorne> like if theres a k app i want to use i just use it in gnome anyway
[04:57] <soyporti> only a question if anyone knows i will be glad to hear the answer. there is support in feisty for 5.1 surround audio?
[04:57] <MultiVerso_> Hello
[04:57] <Eagleray> Hi, I am looking for a CLI AACplus-v2 encoder, and have been unable to find one - can anyone point me in the right direction?
[04:57] <Pelo> omegacenti,  gksu nautilus ,  move your file to the proper location from there
[04:58] <dg10050> Non-Ubuntu-related: If I would like to try out a distro in order to possibly learn a bit more about the under-workings of Linux, would Gentoo be good?
[04:58] <Pelo> superkirbyartist, yes I can
[04:58] <|-David-|> Also, best way to install an NVIDIA gfx card driver is what?
[04:58] <Eagleray> dg10050: yes, but you may find it rather complex
[04:58] <MultiVerso_> How can I configure my Evolution client to test my postfix configuration?
[04:58] <Pelo> soyporti,  http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty , I think there are instrctions in there
[04:58] <omegacenti> Pelo: have any idea why I can't put splash.xpm in splashimages directly from firefox? permissions maybe?
[04:58] <Thorne> Dr_willis:  http://i11.tinypic.com/549xj5h.png
[04:58] <dg10050> David: I usually just run the Nvidia installer. It works fine for me.
[04:58] <KEEV> |-David-|,  use the Synaptic Package Manger
[04:58] <soyporti> thanks Pelo
[04:58] <Eagleray> dg10050: something like debian will let you mess around under the good pretty easily, but you don't have to compile the whole thing
[04:58] <Pelo> |-David-|,  the ppl in #beryl and #ubuntu-effects can probably help you with that
[04:58] <Eagleray> dg10050: *under the hood
[04:59] <SeriousStorm85> slackmagic:- here is the link i used to install it....http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=3492&highlight=usbvision
[04:59] <|-David-|> alright, i'll give them a visit after I'm done with the filesystem
[04:59] <Pelo> omegacenti, yes permission,  just save to desktop and the run nautilus as root to move it

[05:00] <Thorne> MultiVerso_:  what was your question
[05:00] <Pelo> MultiVerso_, try looking in the forum for help
[05:00] <Eagleray> MultiVerso_: can you be more specific? What do you want to test with postfix?
[05:00] <SeriousStorm85> slackmagic:- i followed the comment made by alpnon
[05:00] <dg10050> Eagleray: Thanks, but lets just say that I _want_ to compile everything, like as a learning experience, would Gentoo be good? Or do you recommend something else?
[05:00] <Thorne> dg10050: slackware
[05:00] <Eagleray> dg10050: if you want that, then I can say from personal experience that gentoo is brilliant
[05:00] <Thorne> best det
[05:00] <Thorne> bet
[05:01] <dg10050> thx
[05:01] <jscinoz> Kaitlyn2004, I'm back, did the driver install?
 Polo, no offence, but f-spot reminds me of g-spot.  Is that where the name was fetched?
[05:01] <dg10050> Thorne: What makes Slackware any better for me?
[05:01] <Pelo> superkirbyartist,  what is my nick ?
[05:01] <Thorne> tad more secure
[05:01] <dg10050> I'll look into it
[05:01] <dg10050> thanks
[05:01] <MultiVerso_> yes. I want to how to configure the Evolution client to access the account in my postfix so I can test if everything is fine... By telnet I know that's ok
[05:01] <Thorne> np
[05:02] <Thorne> you can also try the salx livecds dg10050
[05:02] <Thorne> slax*
[05:02] <slackmagic> SeriousStorm85: when you remove the module with   rmmod usbvision    and then     modprobe usbvision   again ..any errors? any errors on dmesg?
[05:02] <dg10050> ok, I was just looking for them :)
[05:02] <Zambezi> Anyone know how to enable allow_url_fopen and set date.timezone in my php.ini?
[05:02] <spaz> hmm
[05:02] <Eagleray> MultiVerso_: are you trying to test authentication? Mail relaying? Spam protection?
[05:02] <CokeMan> ok, when i go to system > preferences > fonts; where is that directory at?
[05:02] <MultiVerso_> Authentication Eagleray
[05:02] <mayze> dg10050:  linux from scratch
[05:02] <spaz> i have a cable modem connected to my computer with a USB cable. Will internet still work if i use ubuntu?
[05:02] <omegacenti> Pelo: Here, also. if I don't need half of those other kernals, could you tell me what okay to delete and what not? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24938/
[05:02] <Dr_willis> Slax Live cd's are Very handy to have in your PC toolbox.
[05:03] <brianfast> hero
[05:03] <Thorne> and theres a few diff slax livecds for diff configurations to suit your taste
[05:03] <dg10050> mayze: I lol'd. XD
[05:03] <Pelo> CokeMan,  use the terminal and type  locate fonts
[05:03] <notwen> is ther eany way to restore /etc/inittab ? it's somehow missing and i have issues installign new apps and updatin/upgrading
[05:03] <Eagleray> MultiVerso_: then just tell evolution to use your postfix server as the SMTP server, and set it to use authentication
[05:03] <Eagleray> MultiVerso_: then send an e-mail
[05:03] <Dr_willis> spaz,  if you can connect it to a router or pc with a network cable. You will have MUCH better speeds.
[05:03] <Pelo> omegacenti,  donT, delete any kernels, just leave them
[05:03] <Thorne> yea i pretty much burned all of the slax

[05:04] <Dr_willis> spaz,   bummer.  it MIGHT work usb.. but every time ive heard someone try it.. they always end up using network cable. Try a Livecd as a test perhaps?
[05:05] <vbabiy> Thorne: where you now
[05:05] <vbabiy> it sure is mine
[05:05] <Thorne> columbus moved from albany bout a yr ago

[05:05] <superkirbyartist> Besides, the question is NOT technical.
[05:05] <omegacenti> IndyGunFreak: lmao I love your exit statement.
[05:05] <Thorne> no college i went to school in boston
[05:05] <vbabiy> Thorne: yep i know where that is
[05:05] <vbabiy> o I see
[05:05] <Eagleray> MultiVerso_: if you're just testing the authentication, you don't need to map port 25. But if you expect your system to actually receive email for your domain, then yes - port 25 will need ot me mapped to the postfix serevr
[05:05] <Thorne> im old now
[05:06] <Thorne> :P
[05:06] <aamy> does anyone have experience running beryl with more than 1 X window ?

[05:06] <KEEV> omegacenti, what is it. I must know!
[05:06] <vbabiy> well its hard to tell on IRC
[05:06] <omegacenti> KEEV: A comment about Quinin :)
[05:06] <Thorne> true :D
[05:06] <KEEV> he
[05:06] <Eagleray> MultiVerso_: note also that many residential ISPs block all port 25 traffic that isn't directly from you to the ISP's mail server
[05:06] <Thorne> well i still get carded for cigs so thats gotta be a sign
[05:06] <vbabiy> I give everyone the benefit of the doubt
[05:06] <omegacenti> KEEV: actually a quote from quintin.
[05:06] <Monteh> hey guys i enabled desktop effects, and wondered what the keyboard command was to activate cube switching =o
[05:06] <Eagleray> MultiVerso_: (as a spam-reduction measure)
[05:07] <Eagleray> Monteh: last time I looked, was CTRL+ALT+Left/Right
[05:07] <IndyGunFreak> omegacenti: re my exit statement, that dude infuriated me yesterday
[05:07] <Thorne> arrow keys Monteh
[05:07] <omegacenti> IndyGunFreak: Same here.
[05:07] <Pelo> omegacenti, your splashimage line looks ok,  for the kernel thing you can probably comment out all the ubuntu ones with kernels older then 2.6.20  leave the memtest one alone
[05:07] <omegacenti> IndyGunFreak: generally rude and condescending with a touch of arrogance.
[05:07] <Thorne> or use ctrl alt and drag mouse
[05:07] <MultiVerso_> Eagleray: I use a cable ISP that don't block my port 25 because my ISP don't provide me a mail server...
[05:07] <IndyGunFreak> omegacenti: i'd never seen him before...
[05:07] <omegacenti> IndyGunFreak: same here.
[05:08] <Pelo> omegacenti,  and if you are not usinsg any windows on that comp you can also comment out the windows one
[05:08] <MultiVerso_> BTW: sorry about my english... I'm from Brazil...

[05:08] <Thorne> im from the USA so my english is horrid
[05:08] <Pelo> omegacenti,  don'T remove them just in case
[05:08] <omegacenti> Pelo: Easier way then putting a # on every line?
[05:09] <alienseer23> Veinor: try amarok
[05:09] <Pelo> KEEV,  I am showing him how to add a background image to the grub boot screen
[05:09] <Eagleray> MultiVerso_: lucky. I had to get a special exception from my ISP to unblock my port. And your English is brilliant ;-)
[05:09] <Veinor> I have indeed heard good things about amarok.
[05:09] <Pelo> omegacenti, your funeral
[05:09] <Monteh> i enabled 3d nvidia drivers, and desktop features, but those key combos dont work =o
[05:09] <Thorne> hahaha pelo
[05:09] <KEEV> Pelo??/ huh what?
[05:09] <omegacenti> Pelo: I meant is there something easier to comment out stuff by adding a # to every line
[05:09] <alienseer23> but not for 5.1 or DTS, I use VLC for that
[05:09] <KEEV> you can do that?
[05:09] <omegacenti> Pelo: Sorry for the confusion.
[05:09] <Eagleray> Monteh: is compiz/beryl actually *running*?
[05:09] <Thorne> ok i really need to make coffee
[05:09] <KEEV> Pelo, likle where it shows you which OS you'd like to run??

[05:10] <MultiVerso_> Eagleray: so I have to put my machine IP in the SMTP server option when I configure the account in evolution ?
[05:10] <Pelo> KEEV,  when you boot yoru computer  you get a  menu listing all the os on your computer,   that is wat you can put a back ground to
[05:10] <Pelo> omegacenti,    put # is the way to do it

[05:10] <KEEV> pelo AHHH!!! show me :0
[05:10] <MultiVerso_> ok. thanks a lot Eagleray. Trying right now...
[05:10] <Eagleray> Monteh: if you need to ask that, it most likely means you haven't set it to autostart.

[05:11] <ubunt1> i want to install gnome on ubuntu server but only for one user that i will make
[05:11] <Pelo> Thorne,  wrong person
[05:11] <ubunt1> is that possible
[05:11] <Monteh> Eagleray:  i was randomly fiddling with linux, ill find out more on the beryl thing D: ty
[05:11] <Thorne> Pelo: i used to be a barista, i like homenade coffee now
[05:11] <ubunt1> on ubuntu server
[05:11] <Pelo> KEEV,   www.gnome-look.org   search for grub   many of the images have instrucions in there
[05:11] <Eagleray> ubunt1: do you mean only one user is alowed to use it, or only one user has it as default?
[05:11] <KEEV> Thorne, true.. but i'm trying to add a BG Img
[05:12] <Pelo> Thorne,  I hae no idea what a barista is
[05:12] <ubunt1> Eagleray: only one user to be alowed to use it

[05:12] <Thorne> professional espresso makers stuff like that
[05:12] <LDSTrooper> Hello?
[05:12] <ubunt1> Eagleray: for example i'm on ubuntu server,and i want only one user to use it,becouse ubuntu server when install gnome have a hole
[05:12] <bipolar> I've installed the nvidia driver from nvidia's site (need up to date for SLI fixes) but modprobe can't find the nvidia kernel module.
[05:12] <Thorne> cappucino lattes you name it
[05:12] <Pelo> hello LDSTrooper
[05:12] <bipolar> I can use insmod to load it.
[05:12] <jhalstead> I use Firefox in both my windows at work and my Ubuntu at home.  On the windows side, the backspace key goes back a page.  In linux it goes up.  can I change this to be more like in windows?
[05:13] <bipolar> I've run depmod -a to no avail
[05:13] <Eagleray> ubunt1: yes, this is possible. Is the user that should have access 'root'?
[05:13] <omegacenti> Is there a way to reboot and keep open all current applications?
[05:13] <LDSTrooper> I'm new to Ubuntu kinda and I am not able to see Flash or Shockwave content.. like on YouTube... how do I do this?
[05:13] <ubunt1> Eagleray: for example toni is admin for the server,and refc only to use gnome
[05:13] <Pelo> omegacenti, no
[05:13] <Thorne> espresso is divine
[05:13] <GrueTamer> !flash | LDSTrooper
[05:13] <ubotu> LDSTrooper: 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

[05:13] <Thorne> its the purest coffee you can get
[05:13] <Thorne> :D
[05:14] <ubunt1> Eagleray: i only want to install for personal use,like skype.
[05:14] <Pelo> Thorne,  latte was the blasphemy,
[05:14] <MultiVerso_> Eagleray: I'm using DynDNS to provide me a fix IP. Can I put my DynDNS address in the POP and SMTP server at evolution config ?
[05:14] <Thorne> brb making elixir of the gods
[05:14] <alienseer23> Q: I had to replace my motherboard, processor, and memory, but am still using the same install, is there anything I should do to ensure 100% performance??
[05:14] <omegacenti> brb rebooting.
[05:14] <Eagleray> ubunti1: yes, it's possible, but rather non-standard. You realise that other users will be able to run skype without needing gnome?
[05:14] <Thorne> pelo very true btw about the latte
[05:14] <ubunt1> Eagleray: and how i can make it to work.
[05:14] <Thorne> brb
[05:14] <LDSTrooper> ok I did that and nada
[05:15] <IndyGunFreak> Pelo: bitter huh?..lol
[05:15] <harry> anyone know a good python tutorial?
[05:15] <Pelo> IndyGunFreak,  they get like that after a while,  not sure why :-)
[05:15] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[05:15] <akahige> I'm in the feisty installer trying to partition a drive and after setting up 4 partitions, it's telling me the rest of my space is "unusable". I'm confused...
[05:15] <Eagleray> Eagleray: just set it so that the script that starts the X session will start gnome if $USER == 'toni', otherwise do whatever you want it to do for the other users
[05:16] <ubunt1> Eagleray: man i
[05:16] <LDSTrooper> Pelo I did do that and its not working....
[05:16] <ubunt1> Eagleray: on ubuntu server,and i want to install skype,is that possible.
[05:16] <Pelo> akahige, unusable or unallocated ?
[05:16] <Eagleray> ubunti1: just set it so that the script that starts the X session will start gnome if $USER == 'toni', otherwise do whatever you want it to do for the other users
[05:16] <Eagleray> ubunti1: yes, you can install skype on ubuntu
[05:16] <Pelo> LDSTrooper, which architeture of ubuntu are you running ?
[05:16] <ubunt1> Eagleray: ok how to do it.
[05:16] <LDSTrooper> Fiesty
[05:16] <akahige> pelo: unusable
[05:16] <LDSTrooper> 64 Bit
[05:16] <Veinor> OK, the key to the right of 'o' and left of '[' doesn't work.
[05:17] <Pelo> akahige, I beleive there is a 4 primary partiton limit,  you need to make 3 primary and make the other ones logical
[05:17] <Eagleray> ubunt1: Go to the skype site. Download skype. Install it.
[05:17] <Pelo> LDSTrooper,   thre is not flash for the 64 bit version, you 'll have to install the 32 bit
[05:17] <LDSTrooper> ahh ok
[05:17] <Pelo> LDSTrooper,  I mean x86 ubuntu ,
[05:17] <LDSTrooper> thanks
[05:17] <ubunt1> Eagleray: and another,man for example when i want to eliminate toni and gnome too will be eliminated or no?
[05:18] <LDSTrooper> so basically... start this system over?
[05:18] <ubunt1> Eagleray: no how to make that to start only for toni user.
[05:18] <Pelo> LDSTrooper,  or go without flash
[05:18] <akahige> Pelo: I think I read that somewhere, too, but it's not giving me the option to add logical partitions in that other space, and it's also not letting me go back and edit the types of the other partitions
[05:18] <Pelo> LDSTrooper,  and a few other things
[05:18] <HalonChilled> Hi I just installed ubuntu to dual boot with osx, Just booted osx and it wont let me mount my linux partition (ext3). how do I fix this?
[05:18] <Eagleray> ubunt1: cna you clarify your question?
[05:18] <LDSTrooper> ok thanks Pelo
[05:18] <LDSTrooper> off to format and re-install
[05:19] <Veinor> my 'p' key isn't working for some reason.
[05:19] <Pelo> akahige,  delete one of the other partitons,   and you will need to make an extended partiton for the rest of the space and put your logical partions in the extended one
[05:19] <SeriousStorm85> slackmagic:- sorry its not composite its s-video
[05:19] <ubunt1> Eagleray: now i want only toni to have gui,and ferc to have that is root to be server.And when i want to eliminate toni is gnome too will be eliminated?
[05:19] <omegacenti_> Pelo: It worked :) now, you said you can't rotate the images out. you sure? nothing like an advanced script with some naming or something that changes the imagenumber every time the system comes down?
[05:19] <akahige> Pelo: okay. does it matter which partitions are primary and which are extended?
[05:20] <Eagleray> ubunt1: removing the user 'toni' will not remove gnome
[05:20] <Pelo> omegacenti_,  if you want to play with that you are on your own
[05:20] <Veinor> Pelo: Ha!
[05:20] <ubunt1> Eagleray: ehhhhh,that is bad
[05:20] <omegacenti_> Pelo: hehe thanks :)
[05:20] <Eagleray> ubunt1: why is that bad?
[05:20] <omegacenti_> Veinor: character maps FTW
[05:20] <alienseer23> can someone tell me the ubuntu time server so i can add it to the list of time servers??
[05:20] <Eagleray> ubunt1: just manually remove it
[05:20] <Pelo> akahige, I think you would do well to hvae the primary partitions first on the extended one the last
[05:20] <xtknight> alienseer23, ntp.ubuntu.com
[05:20] <ubunt1> Eagleray: becouse i'm on ubuntu server and want to create one user to use the gnome
[05:21] <Veinor> omegacenti_: Or coPy-Paste, yes.
[05:21] <alienseer23> thank you
[05:21] <ubunt1> Eagleray: is that possible
[05:21] <Zylstra555> Hello. I am having a problem with my Dell TrueMobile 1300 Wireless card. I am unable to get it installed. I have searched and searched, but just cant find anything. What do I do?
[05:21] <Eagleray> ubunt1: yes, I told you that before
[05:21] <ubunt1> Eagleray: i know for that i ask you again
[05:21] <akahige> Pelo: right. but what I meant was "Is it important what I mount as primary, vs. extended?" sorry for the confusion.
[05:21] <ubunt1> Eagleray: and now,how to edit the script man.
[05:21] <Eagleray> ubunt1: you need to read my answers a little more carefully. Removing the user 'toni' does _NOT_ mean that all other users will have access to gnome
[05:21] <Pelo> akahige, I donT' think so
[05:22] <akahige> Pelo: thanks!
[05:22] <cycom> How can I change the extra properties in ubuntu's screensaver?
[05:22] <Pelo> !hardware | Zylstra555  try looking your card here for some intructions if not look up your card model in the forum see if anything turns up
[05:22] <ubotu> Zylstra555  try looking your card here for some intructions if not look up your card model in the forum see if anything turns up: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[05:22] <ubunt1> Eagleray: and from where to edit the script to say that to start only for toni
[05:23] <Zylstra555> ok, I will
[05:23] <SirKeats> can someone direct me to the version of pidgin that will install on my ubuntu
[05:23] <MultiVerso_> Eagleray: Evolution said: connection refused
[05:23] <ubunt1> SirKeats: getdeb.net
[05:23] <Pelo> SirKeats, check the pidgin website for a deb file
[05:23] <ubunt1> Eagleray: man?
[05:23] <Eagleray> ubunt1: edit whichever script you use to start the DE. You will also need to set a group for the gnome files
[05:23] <SirKeats> i got an error when i tried to open the .deb file
[05:23] <Pelo> cycom, what extra properties ?
[05:23] <Pelo> SirKeats, what error ?
[05:23] <ubunt1> Eagleray: ahhh,and how to do it?
[05:24] <SirKeats> figured it wasn't the right version.  obviously it's something else
[05:24] <SirKeats> lol
[05:24] <Eagleray> MultiVerso_: that means that your conn is being rejected, and you don't have port 25 access
[05:24] <SirKeats> lemme run it again and i'll let you know
[05:24] <SirKeats> one sec
[05:24] <cycom> Pelo: Stuff like the number of squares in popsquares. Junk like that.
[05:24] <Zylstra555> My card is not anywhere on the hardware list
[05:24] <ubunt1> Eagleray: can you make a little how to.
[05:24] <Eagleray> MultiVerso_: what does "telnet yourserverip 25" do?
[05:25] <Pelo> cycom,  you can probably edit the screensaver file by hand,  but at your own risk,  do a search on your hdd for the screensaver name , see if you can edit hte matching file
[05:25] <omegacenti_> Also, never use the space or tab character in a file name, and never begin a file name with a - character. Is this still true?
[05:25] <Eagleray> ubunt1: No. Are you sure you should be administering anm ubuntu server? You don't seem to have a grasp on the basics of how the OS works.
[05:25] <Pelo> Zylstra555, search for your model in www.ubuntuforums.com
[05:25] <MultiVerso_> Eagleray: It connects
[05:25] <SirKeats> "archive type not supported" is the error i get when trying to open the .deb file
[05:25] <cycom> Pelo: Most screensaver manager have an extra options thing. I'm rather suprised that the one that comes with ubuntu doesn't.  Is it gnome-screensaver or X-screensaveR?
[05:25] <SirKeats> (i'm new to linux so am no doubt doing something wrong)
[05:25] <Eagleray> MultiVerso_: send "HELO yourhostnamehere"
[05:25] <Eagleray> MultiVerso_: what does it return?
[05:26] <ubunt1> Eagleray: i know how the os work
[05:26] <Bradf0rd> How do I reset my password in Ubuntu, I can't log in
[05:26] <alienseer23> if i replace my motherboard, is there anything i should do if I am using the same hdd/installation, or will ubuntu make all detections/chages automatically?
[05:26] <Pelo> omegacenti_, you can use space  but underscores are better,  why would you want to use the others  is behond me
[05:26] <ubunt1> Eagleray: why you don't want to explain how to.
[05:26] <omegacenti_> Pelo: just in the comphrehensive text I am reading.
[05:26] <omegacenti_> Pelo: Thanks yet again pelo!
[05:26] <Pelo> SirKeats,  don'T try to unpack it ,  deb files are debian installer files, just run it
[05:26] <Eagleray> ubunt1: because I have better things to do with my time that explain the baics of ubuntu to you, when there are a million howtos out there for you to follow
[05:27] <MultiVerso_> Eagleray:  It returns 250 multiverso.homelinux.net
[05:27] <Eagleray> ubunt1: try using google
[05:27] <SirKeats> that's what i was doing.  well... i said to open
[05:27] <SirKeats> is that different than run in linux?
[05:27] <Thorne> mmm coffee and classical music
[05:27] <SirKeats> hehe
[05:27] <ubunt1> Eagleray: and what to search?
[05:27] <CokeMan> can anyone help me figure out why my computer keeps randomly crashing? I get this horizontal-diagonal repeating pattern down the screen and the PC is locked.
[05:27] <MultiVerso_> Eagleray : BTW multiverso.homelinux.net is my DynDNS domain name
[05:27] <intelikey> why is ubuntu officially using alpha software in the LTS main   ?    Get:3 http://archive.ubuntu.com dapper/main libtheora0 0.0.0.alpha5-0ubuntu2
[05:27] <Bradf0rd> HOW do i reset my password in Ubuntu, or get into verbose mode or w/e
[05:27] <Pelo> SirKeats, I was assuming you were trying to unpack it ,  open should have run it ,
[05:27] <Thorne> CokeMan: sounds like xwindows or your vid card driver
[05:27] <CokeMan> and it seems to occure when i tend to be putting a heavy load on the PC like multitasking
[05:28] <Eagleray> MultiVerso_: that means there is a connection. How are your relaying permissions set up? Have you told evolution to authenticate for SMTP?
[05:28] <Pelo> SirKeats, just dbl click on it
[05:28] <SirKeats> same thing
[05:28] <SirKeats> unsupported file type
[05:28] <CokeMan> Thorne: i've used both the vesa driver and the nvidia driver specifically for the card
[05:28] <intelikey> Bradf0rd terminal  passwd
[05:28] <omegacenti_> Ummm...  is a directory a file or is it actually a directory.. I'm confused...
[05:28] <Pelo> SirKeats, sudo apt-get instal gdebi
[05:28] <MultiVerso_> Eagleray: yep. By PLAIN
[05:28] <SirKeats> k
[05:28] <Bradf0rd> Intelikey, I can't bet into terminal, I can't log in
[05:28] <Pelo> SirKeats, sudo apt-get install gdebi
[05:28] <SirKeats> pelo: k. thanks. trying now
[05:28] <akahige> partitioning question: I'm going along setting all the partitions and mount points. going to give the rest of the free space to /home, but I'm getting an error: "Can't have the end before the start!" wtf does that mean?
[05:29] <Thorne> it might be just the actual vid card then CokeMan
[05:29] <intelikey> Bradf0rd drop into a console and login.    ctrl+alt+f1
[05:29] <Pelo> akahige, make sure the start and end values you are setting are in the right order
[05:29] <intelikey> Bradf0rd alt+f7  (tty7) is the default console for the xserver to run in.

[05:30] <Veinor> I might have found a bug.
[05:30] <intelikey> anyone know why   alpha  on the LTS ?
[05:30] <SeriousStorm85> slackmagic:- any luck...if not its ok...thanks for ur time though
[05:30] <harry> omegacenti_: I might be wrong, but as far as I know, a directory is actually a special file that lists other files that are in it
[05:30] <Eagleray> MultiVerso_: is postfix set to allow plaintext authentication?
[05:30] <Veinor> If I go into keyboard shortcuts under system->preferences
[05:30] <nootrope> !upgrade
[05:30] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[05:30] <omegacenti_> harry: Thanks for the attempt :)
[05:30] <SirKeats> pelo: thanks a ton.  that worked.  switching over to linux pidgin.  hehehe. brb.
[05:30] <Bradf0rd> I can log in console either.... it's asking me for a password, and that's what I need
[05:31] <akahige> @Pelo: not following you. I set this partition up the way I did all the others. Does this have something to do with the location being "beginning" or "end"? (because I don't know what that means...)
[05:31] <ubunt1> Eagleray: ok thanks then.
[05:31] <intelikey> omegacenti_ what issue ?   i know a little about file systems.
[05:31] <harry> omegacenti_: one min...
[05:31] <imac1> would some tell me if there is anything wrong with this fstab line:  /dev/hdb        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,auto     0       0
[05:31] <omegacenti_> intelikey: is a directory a file, or a directory....
[05:32] <intelikey> omegacenti_ in linux everything is an "inode"  (aka file)
[05:32] <Pelo> akahige,  whn you make your new partiton, in the dialog box there are fields for  starting sector and ending sector,  ( they might be called differently) ,make sure the start one is lower then the end one
[05:32] <omegacenti_> intelikey: inode?
[05:32] <Veinor> i've just disabled a bunch of my keys
[05:32] <intelikey> yes
[05:32] <omegacenti_> !inode
[05:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about inode - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:32] <CokeMan> like that >_< I just crashed
[05:32] <CokeMan> im tried of my pc crashing like a crackwhore :(
[05:32] <Pelo> akahige, that is the best thing I can do for you, I think I recall someone mentionning that there was a bug in there somewhere, with a lot of partition,  try applying your previous changes before making your last partition
[05:32] <Bradf0rd> how the f do I reset my password@!!!????
[05:33] <omegacenti_> CokeMan: Give more crack then. less DT's
[05:33] <harry> my unix book (paraphrased) says a directory has an entry for each file. each entry has the filename and inode number
[05:33] <akahige> @Pelo: I've got nothing like that in the feisty partitioner. Just size in megs, location: beginning or end, fs type, and mount point.
[05:33] <bruenig> Bradf0rd, just passwd
[05:33] <intelikey> Bradf0rd boot to safe mode and run      passwd <username>
[05:33] <Eagleray> Bradf0rd: are you locked out fo your account?
[05:33] <omegacenti_> harry: inode? inode number?
[05:33] <harry> omegacenti_: err se tthe one I just posted
[05:33] <SuperQ> harry: yep
[05:33] <Pelo> akahige, beginning and end would the the starting sector and finishing sector
[05:33] <MultiVerso_> Eagleray: sasl and TLS
[05:33] <Pelo> omegacenti_, http://book.opensourceproject.org.cn/distrib/ubuntu/unleashed/
[05:33] <harry> the inode number points to a place on the disk
[05:34] <akahige> @pelo: but all it is is a radio button
[05:34] <CokeMan> DT?
[05:34] <Thorne> brb going to try the fluxbox
[05:34] <SuperQ> harry: ext2/3 store the directory listing in the datablocks associated with the directory's inode
[05:34] <Eagleray> MultiVerso_: you will need to use either SASL or TLS in evolution then
[05:34] <Pelo> akahige,  forget that partittion for now, and apply the other ones,  then come back and make the last one
[05:34] <Eagleray> MultiVerso_: the authentication schemes in evolution and on the server will need to match
[05:34] <akahige> @pelo: the last one is home. isn't that going to cause problems?
[05:34] <CokeMan> can anyone help me figure out why my PC crashes with a horizontal-diagonal pattern down the screen?
[05:34] <SuperQ> harry: the on unfortunate thing is that ext2/3 grow directory tables, but do not garbage collect
[05:35] <harry> i see
[05:35] <Bradf0rd> bruenig, intelikey, Eagleray, I don't know how to get into safe mode... I forget
[05:35] <intelikey> omegacenti_ may i sujest  rute-book   it's in the repos and your package manager can install it.  it's very comprehinsive (!/sp)
[05:35] <harry> what about reiserfs
[05:35] <bruenig> Bradf0rd, single user mode
[05:35] <akahige> @pelo: or should I cancel out of this and do it all in gparted?
[05:35] <MultiVerso_> Eagleray: But I'm already using TSL... I just can't find a option that matches SASL in my SMTP preferences on Evolutin
[05:35] <SuperQ> harry: drwxr-xr-x 5 foo bar 4096 2007-05-17 15:27 src
[05:35] <Pelo> akahige, sure do that
[05:35] <SuperQ> harry: one 4k block is assigned to that dir
[05:35] <AnRkey> does anyone know why i can't paiste from my pc to a server through vncviewer?
[05:35] <omegacenti_> intelikey: interesting. didnt know it was available as a package ^_^
[05:35] <Eagleray> MultiVerso_: hang on (*fires up evolution*)
[05:35] <akahige> @pelo: k. thanks
[05:35] <omegacenti_> intelikey: how do you read it? gui?
[05:35] <intelikey> Bradf0rd at the boot prompt.  [esc]   if you don't see a list.
[05:36] <intelikey> omegacenti_ yes.
[05:36] <intelikey> omegacenti_ iirc it's html  or xml format.
[05:36] <SuperQ> harry: drwxrwxrwt    3 root     root      4554752 Jun  9 20:30 tmp
[05:36] <omegacenti_> Pelo: that book you posted me, is it available free or do I need to purchase it at my local bookstore?
[05:36] <imac1> would some tell me if there is anything wrong with this fstab line as a cd drive:  /dev/hdb        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,auto     0       0
[05:36] <SuperQ> harry: that tmpdir got spamed with MANY long filenames
[05:36] <MultiVerso_> Eagleray: I have PLAIN  NTLM/SPA  DIGEST-MD5  CRAM-MD5  Login and  POP before SMTP
[05:36] <harry> SuperQ: by the way, is it possible to encrypt at the filesystem level with ext3?
[05:36] <intelikey> imac1 auto
[05:36] <Pelo> omegacenti_, the site is free as far as I know
[05:37] <SuperQ> harry: i dunno.. most encryption is done at the block layer, because it's easy
[05:37] <intelikey> imac1   s/auto/users/
[05:37] <imac1> intelikey: what does the auto do wrong for a cd drive?
[05:37] <SuperQ> harry: and you only have to build one encrypter for all filesystems
[05:37] <intelikey> trys to mount at boot time.
[05:37] <slackmagic> SeriousStorm85:   http://diantn.free.fr/dp/?q=node/31    try this please
[05:37] <SuperQ> harry: the filename index for that dir takes up 4.3MB
[05:37] <omegacenti_> Pelo: ah didn't see the right menu had scripts turned off.
[05:37] <SuperQ> harry: which is insane
[05:37] <Eagleray> MultiVerso_: use digest-md5, and set digest on postfix
[05:37] <imac1> intelikey: what would be appropriate entries?
[05:37] <SeriousStorm85> slackmagic: thanks
[05:38] <SuperQ> harry: fragmentation of those blocks can also make 'ls' really freaking slow too
[05:38] <intelikey> imac1 user,users,noauto
[05:38] <omegacenti_> SuperQ: can you "defragment" ?
[05:38] <SuperQ> omegacenti_: "yes", but not online
[05:38] <SuperQ> omegacenti_: you must unmount the filesystem
[05:38] <intelikey> imac1 or without the noauto either.
[05:39] <omegacenti_> SuperQ: so sometimes I need to unfragment my ext3 filesystem?
[05:39] <Eagleray> MultiVerso_: gotta go now - good luck
[05:39] <porkchop_> I'm booting the ubuntu 7.04 cd on a thinkpad a20p. Couldn't get it working, playing with vga= options and acpi options. I removed the "silent" option from the kernel arguements and I can watch the boot... it stops right after squashfs module is loaded. Any guesses as to what I should try?
[05:39] <MultiVerso_> Eagleray: How can I set digest on postfix? Do I have to edit my main.cf ?
[05:39] <SuperQ> omegacenti_: not generally
[05:39] <intelikey> omegacenti_ prolly not.
[05:39] <Eagleray> MultiVerso_: yes, main.cf
[05:39] <omegacenti_> intelikey: what might cause a need for defragmentation?
[05:39] <slackmagic> SeriousStorm85: it's definetely one of those devices that work for some people and for some it just wouldn't want to work..then again sometimes people say the quality is not as good..might have better gotten the PCI version instead of the external usb..if there is a chance for you to return it and get the pci version, you might want to do so
[05:39] <SuperQ> omegacenti_: ext3 is fairly good at distributing data in the first place so it doen't have the clasic fat32/ntfs blunder of writing linearly to a disk
[05:40] <intelikey> omegacenti_ i've been using linux for about 10 years and have never defraged an ext# fs
[05:40] <omegacenti_> intelikey: wow :)
[05:40] <omegacenti_> SuperQ: thanks!
[05:40] <SuperQ> omegacenti_: it does tend to fragment badly when disks reach near-full status
[05:40] <intelikey> highest non-contigueus count i have seen is 3%  and that's very rare
[05:41] <porkchop_> Generally, ext fss dont need to be defragged. In some rare cases a superfragmented fs can cause slowness, but thats not really common.
[05:41] <imac1> intelikey, where in the fstab line, would you place : user,users,noauto I see where to place noauto, but I don't see where to put users and user
[05:41] <omegacenti_> intelikey: how would I check that?
[05:41] <intelikey> normally in the .#% range
[05:41] <SirKeats> thanks again for helping me get pidgin installed pelo!
[05:41] <SuperQ> intelikey: heh.. i see lots of filesystems that hit 10-25% fragmentation
[05:41] <SuperQ> intelikey: but they're generally heavy-hit storage servers
[05:41] <Pelo> SirKeats, no problem
[05:41] <omegacenti_> SuperQ: how would I check fragmentation?
[05:41] <porkchop_> if you have 400 tarballs being appended to at different times, then you could have a problem. I've seen 65% fragmentation on a fs used for backups. It was just tarballs being appended to with diffs.
[05:42] <porkchop_> it was just slow. Not actually problematic.
[05:42] <CokeMan> can anyone help me figure out why my PC crashes with a horizontal-diagonal pattern down the screen?
[05:42] <imac1> intelikey: would my entry ideally look like this: /dev/hdb        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user users,noauto     0       0
[05:42] <Pelo> omegacenti_, you donT' have to worry about that
[05:42] <SuperQ> omegacenti_: fsck will tell you
[05:42] <SirKeats> another question. i'm running a kvm between two boxes. one with windows, one with ubuntu. the screen is fine in windows, but in linux here it's a little smaller and not centered.
[05:42] <porkchop_> CokeMan: driver issue. somethings getting into your video mem prolly.
[05:42] <Pelo> CokeMan,  what video card ?
[05:42] <SirKeats> do i just have to live with it or can i adjust in ubuntu
[05:42] <omegacenti_> omg wow. thank goodness it warned me!!! I almost did fsck on my mounted ubuntu
[05:42] <intelikey> omegacenti_ every 20 or 30 mounts it will run e2fsck on the root fs   the report should show the stats.   you can before you shutdown  remount to read only /  and run fsck -f /dev/<your_root>   if you think you need to.
[05:42] <SuperQ> omegacenti_: heh
[05:43] <SirKeats> i don't want to mess with my actual monitor setting cuz they're set perfect for the windows box
[05:43] <porkchop_> omegacenti_: it'd have warned you.
[05:43] <nootrope> anyone have recommendations for a decent video editing tool? is Kino the state of the art for Linux video editors?
[05:44] <imac1> intelikey: would my entry ideally look like this: /dev/hdb        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user users,noauto     0       0
[05:44] <Pelo> nootrope, give avidemux a try
[05:44] <CokeMan> Pelo:  nVidia Corporation C51G [GeForce 6100]  (rev a2)
[05:44] <intelikey> SirKeats monitor have buttons ?    adjust it.
[05:44] <Pelo> CokeMan,  i'm assuming you've installed the proper dirvers?
[05:44] <CokeMan> Pelo: yep
[05:45] <intelikey> imac1 no.  the space between user and users  should be a comma
[05:45] <SirKeats> it does... but if i adjust it, it'll then mess it up for the windows box, which is set perfect at the moment
[05:45] <SuperQ> SirKeats: you probably have a refresh rate differnece
[05:45] <imac1> intelikey: thx very much
[05:45] <nootrope> Pelo, thanks, I'll checkit
[05:45] <tannerld> anyone know how to get this (http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/set-gmail-as-default-mail-client-in-ubuntu/) to pass the address to gmail?
[05:45] <SirKeats> oooohhhh.  thanks superQ
[05:45] <SuperQ> SirKeats: windows tends to default to crappy low refresh rates
[05:45] <SirKeats> lemme check that
[05:45] <Naisenu> How do I force quit an app that isn't showing in "top"?
[05:45] <Pelo> CokeMan, then I suggest you try and review your driver configuration, also check the forum for your problem , maybe somene else as experienced this and found a solution already
[05:45] <SirKeats> what's a good refresh rate then
[05:45] <SuperQ> SirKeats: 70+
[05:45] <imac1> intelikey: so...something like this :   /dev/hdb        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,users,noauto     0       0
[05:46] <Pelo> g'night folks
[05:46] <SuperQ> SirKeats: for a CRT
[05:46] <intelikey> i like 90
[05:46] <SirKeats> okay.... this is set to 75 right now
[05:46] <SuperQ> SirKeats: it doesn't matter for LCD
[05:46] <SirKeats> lemme change windows to match
[05:46] <SuperQ> SirKeats: 75 is fine
[05:46] <SirKeats> i'm on an old crt
[05:46] <CokeMan> Pelo: how do i check my video configuration? And... its done this using both vesa and this new nvidia driver. It was the cause of me enableing the "proper" video driver
[05:46] <SirKeats> brb... adjusting windows
[05:46] <DARKGuy> Hey, if I want to submit a fix to a file in /usr/lib/i18n/ for fixing a timezone, what would I have to do?
[05:46] <MultiVerso_> Eagleray: I couldn't find in Google how to enable digest in my main.cf. I suppose that I have to put some line like " smtpd_digest_enable = yes" or something. Is that it?
[05:46] <Zylstra555> I need to know how to blacklist a driver. Where do I start?
[05:47] <Bluhd> I heard that there is a guide somewhere that causes extra localizations to be removed after every update in synaptic... since I only use English on Ubuntu, I find that this would be useful. Does anyone know where I could find it? I tried a search on the ubuntuforums, but I couldn't find the link
[05:47] <DARKGuy> Bluhd, that's called localepurge
[05:47] <intelikey> so no clue-by-four on why there are alpha softwarez in the LTS main repo  ???
[05:47] <omegacenti_> tannerld: that is so cool! I am doing it right now
[05:47] <Bluhd> ah, I'll search for it now
[05:47] <DARKGuy> Bluhd, good luck :)
[05:48] <intelikey> ok i'll ask when the night shift comes in...
[05:48] <SeriousStorm85> slackmagic:- i think i know where the problem lies....my sudo make doesn't work...it says No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop
[05:48] <Zylstra555> I need to know how to blacklist a driver. Where do I start?
[05:48] <SeriousStorm85> slackmagic:- i will try and fix that first
[05:48] <imac1> intelikey: thx again

[05:49] <tannerld> omegacenti_: yeah; it'll just bring up the send msg page w/o anything in the to field
[05:49] <Bluhd> DARKGuy: also, does it remove oriental character support?
[05:49] <DARKGuy> Bluhd, anything that starts with "en"
[05:49] <DARKGuy> Bluhd, I have no idea about that :(
[05:49] <slackmagic> SeriousStorm85: yeah..definetely need those kernel-headers for that
[05:49] <omegacenti_> tannerld: ill try it out. gimme an example page with a mail to link on it please.
[05:50] <Bluhd> DARKGuy: should I bother with uk codes?
[05:50] <tannerld> omegacenti_: scroll up to the top of that page; look right to the nav bar and "contact the geek" at the top
[05:51] <Zylstra555> I need to know how to blacklist a driver. Where do I start?
[05:51] <Bluhd> Zylstra555: what do you mean by blacklisting?
[05:51] <DARKGuy> Bluhd, I wouldn't select them, but for safety, better do
[05:51] <Zylstra555> Blacklistng a Linux default driver
[05:51] <Bluhd> :|
[05:51] <Zylstra555> so that my Dell TrueMobile 1300 card can work
[05:51] <Bluhd> Zylstra555: you mean you want to install a non-default one?
[05:52] <Zylstra555> Bluhd: Yes
[05:52] <Bluhd> Zylstra555: you'll probably have to install the new one then uninstall the old one
[05:52] <Bluhd> I don't know if you can blacklist drivers
[05:52] <Zylstra555> You can blacklist a driver. Its part of the NDISWRAPPER, but I have no idea how

[06:00] <omegacenti_> tannerld: how its like /home/YOUUSERNAME/open.mailto.sh? add a space and %s
[06:00] <kadaz> wheww
[06:00] <tomer> copy the folder of the VM while it is running, will it still work:
[06:00] <tomer> ?
[06:01] <SeriousStorm85> bruenig:- but using sudo apt-get install linux-kernel-headers give me this error  E: Package linux-kernel-headers has no installation candidate
[06:01] <omegacenti_> tannerld: for instance /home/tanner/open.mailto.sh %s
[06:01] <bruenig> SeriousStorm85, what exactly are you doing
[06:01] <tannerld> omegacenti_: hey eureka that works
[06:01] <tannerld> omegacenti_: thanks :)
[06:01] <SeriousStorm85> bruenig:- my sudo make doesn't work
[06:01] <omegacenti_> tannerld: np :) I read the comments btw.

[06:01] <bruenig> SeriousStorm85, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[06:01] <omegacenti_> what is %s?
[06:01] <tomer> #join vmware
[06:01] <tannerld> omegacenti_: heh I read them too, must've missed that one
[06:02] <omegacenti_> tannerld: thanks for coming up with that problem! your problem became my joy ^_^
[06:02] <tannerld> omegacenti_: hehe
[06:02] <omegacenti_> how do I kill a ghost in irc?
[06:02] <SeriousStorm85> bruenig:- build-essential is already the newest version.0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. sudo makemake: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
[06:03] <tannerld> omegacenti_: /ghost name password
[06:03] <bruenig> SeriousStorm85, there is no Makefile in the directory you are running make in, hence it isn't working
[06:03] <bruenig> SeriousStorm85, link to the tarball
[06:03] <omegacenti> tannerld: thanks :)
[06:05] <tannerld> omegacenti: no problemo
[06:05] <omegacenti> wow Ubuntu is awesome... I am seriously in Awe.
[06:05] <omegacenti> I have always feared the mailto links but now...
[06:05] <omegacenti> now..
[06:05] <omegacenti> I am complete.
[06:05] <kazol> Does anyone here use freeNAS?
[06:06] <SeriousStorm85> bruenig:- http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24944/
[06:06] <tannerld> omegacenti: you are one with ubuntu
[06:06] <omegacenti> However, how would I go about enabling my ability to change my processor frequency? I know I can do it (used to do it in windows) but now it only happens if the cpu gets loaded.
[06:06] <bruenig> SeriousStorm85, first off there is no reason to use sudo, so don't
[06:07] <bruenig> SeriousStorm85, when you ran ./configure what error did it spit out at you
[06:07] <bruenig> SeriousStorm85, and also, if ./configure errors, don't run make
[06:08] <SeriousStorm85> bruenig:- there was no ./configure steps in what i was doing:- http://diantn.free.fr/dp/?q=node/31
[06:09] <bruenig> SeriousStorm85, read the real documentation, don't follow tutorials blindly unless you understand what is going on. This tutorial says it is for 6.10
[06:09] <tylo> hello
[06:10] <bruenig> !find linux-headers
[06:10] <ubotu> Found: linux-headers-2.6.20-15, linux-headers-2.6.20-15-386, linux-headers-2.6.20-15-generic, linux-headers-2.6.20-15-lowlatency, linux-headers-2.6.20-15-server (and 14 others)
[06:10] <kazol> Does anyone here use freeNAS?
[06:10] <omegacenti> What is an Xwindow?
[06:10] <tylo> Can anyone help me out with a kernel update problem involving LILO, initrd, and problems mounting my root directory?
[06:10] <bruenig> SeriousStorm85, step two is not serious when he says linux-kernel-headers, he is saying to install the linux headers for your kernel: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[06:10] <roostishaw> omegacenti: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XWindow
[06:11] <MultiVerso_> I'm back! Anyone can help me to enable Digest-MD5 in main.cf on my postfix? I have LOGIN and PLAIN enabled as authentication methods o my server, but when I try to authenticate with evolution, it returns "Connection refused"
[06:11] <MultiVerso_> Can anybody help me?
[06:11] <omegacenti> roostishaw: Unfortunately I already read that. When I am running gnome and I see windows, those are X windows right?
[06:12] <roostishaw> omegacenti: yes
[06:12] <omegacenti> roostishaw: what is an X window root?
[06:12] <MultiVerso_> I couldn't find anything in google...
[06:12] <hagabaka> which package for sun java provides /usr/bin/java ?
[06:13] <omegacenti> roostishaw: I am trying to run groach :)
[06:13] <bruenig> !info sun-java6-jre
[06:13] <ubotu> sun-java6-jre: Sun Java(TM) Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 (architecture independent files). In component multiverse, is optional. Version 6-00-2ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 6176 kB, installed size 14148 kB
[06:13] <hagabaka> i installed it but it didn't install a java in PATH
[06:13] <roostishaw> omegacenti: hehe. What's the problem while running it?
[06:13] <DARKGuy> Hey, how can I change the default file manager to be thunar instead of nautilus?
[06:13] <hagabaka> in dpkg --listfiles, it shows /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.00/bin/java
[06:13] <DARKGuy> or any other program? :P
[06:13] <bruenig> hagabaka, it should have, do which java
[06:13] <omegacenti> roostishaw: I don't see any roaches :(
[06:14] <hagabaka> which can't find java
[06:14] <tylo> whenever I try to boot after updating my kernel, I get a "cannot mount root fs" error. my root filesystem is on hda2, and my lilo.conf file reflects this
[06:14] <omegacenti> roostishaw: Where do I run it from and how?
[06:14] <roostishaw> omegacenti: What have you done so far?
[06:14] <tylo> however, it still tells me it can't mount the root fs :-\
[06:14] <bruenig> hagabaka, that is not normal, you can either add that thing you put up above to the path or symlink it so it is in the path
[06:14] <MultiVerso_> anybody ?
[06:14] <bulmer> hagabaka: man update-alternatives
[06:15] <omegacenti> roostishaw: # groach; # groach default; # gksudo groach; gksudo groach default
[06:15] <roostishaw> omegacenti: as far as installing it
[06:15] <omegacenti> roostishaw: installed via synaptic package manager
[06:15] <DARKGuy> Hey, how can I change the default file manager to be thunar instead of nautilus? or any other program?
[06:16] <omegacenti> roostishaw: I just did alt f2 and tried to run it that way.. no roaches :(
[06:16] <hagabaka> ah, thanks bulmer
[06:16] <roostishaw> omegacenti: and do those commands return "command not found"?
[06:16] <bruenig> DARKGuy, I tried to do that in so many different ways, I am convinced it is not possible, at least not in gnome
[06:16] <omegacenti> roostishaw: no they run
[06:16] <joebob777as7> how do i release and renew my ip in the console?
[06:16] <omegacenti> roostishaw: I just dont see roaches
[06:16] <DARKGuy> bruenig, and I just got a great idea
[06:16] <Veinor> How can I change the media player that launches via the 'launch music player' shortcut
[06:17] <DARKGuy> bruenig, that's what I needed to know, that it wasn't possible - to make it possible! xD
[06:17] <bruenig> I tried symlinking and everything
[06:17] <joebob777as7> how do i release and renew my ip in the console?
[06:17] <Veinor> joebob777as7: sudo ifconfig eth0 down; sudo ifconfig eth0 up ?
[06:17] <omegacenti> roostishaw: I have to hit ctl c to exit it
[06:17] <Veinor> replace eth0 with your interface
[06:17] <bruenig> DARKGuy, you think you know how?
[06:17] <kkathman> anyone know where firefox keeps its other icons??  the one I have is quite a bit too large :)
[06:17] <joebob777as7> Veinor, thanks a bunch!
[06:17] <Veinor> that'll kill your connection momentarily, of course.
[06:17] <roostishaw> omegacenti: does it just print a newline in the terminal, and do nothing?
[06:17] <omegacenti> roostishaw: yes
[06:18] <roostishaw> omegacenti: ok, I see what you mean. gimme a second
[06:18] <DARKGuy> bruenig, make a shell script and link it to "nautilus"... that script would get the first parameter - if the first parameter is "--desktop" (or whatever nautilus gets for showing the desktop only), then run nautilus... else, run thunar, with the supplied script parameters :3
[06:18] <tylo> can anyone help me solve a "cannot mount root file system" error during the boot process?
[06:18] <bruenig> DARKGuy, I tried something similar to that
[06:18] <DARKGuy> bruenig, did it work? xD
[06:19] <bruenig> DARKGuy, I think that the command launched by the places>home folder is bizarre in some way
[06:19] <DARKGuy> bruenig, do you know how can I know what's the command?
[06:19] <bruenig> you would think it was nautilus ~ or some path like that, but I guess not
[06:19] <chrisjs169> how can i clear dns on ubuntu?
[06:19] <roostishaw> omegacenti: have you looked at the launchpad?
[06:20] <bruenig> it seems like it is just some internal thing like when you use nautilus you can provide arguments like %s and %f and other stuff like that, it almost seems like that is what it is doing
[06:20] <omegacenti> roostishaw: wish I knew what a launchpad is.
[06:20] <mzuverink> whats the proper way to go about changing permission for an index.html to be -rw-r--r--  ?
[06:20] <roostishaw> omegacenti: right. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/groach/+bug/113446 & https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/groach/+bug/71833
[06:20] <roostishaw> omegacenti: seems like you're not alone
[06:20] <Veinor> How can I change the media player that launches via the 'launch music player' shortcut?
[06:20] <bruenig> mzuverink, chmod 644
[06:20] <Veinor> mzuverink chmod 0644 file
[06:21] <Veinor> sudo chmod 0644 file if you need to.
[06:21] <bruenig> Veinor, what is that 0 for, I have seen that before
[06:21] <mzuverink> bruenig, and everyone else thanks
[06:21] <Veinor> 0 is for octal.
[06:21] <omegacenti> roostishaw: could I have harmed my system by doing gksudo groach or might it be a melevolent application?
[06:21] <Veinor> it might still work without it, but just to be safe.
[06:21] <jrsims> hey, any xubuntu users her?
[06:21] <jrsims> e
[06:21] <matthew> former
[06:21] <Veinor> yeah, it works without it.
[06:21] <bruenig> Veinor, so it just specified octal?
[06:21] <bruenig> like a switch
[06:21] <roostishaw> omegacenti: I'd very much doubt that you ruined anything at all...
[06:22] <Veinor> yeah, it works either way I think. It might not be necessary, it might even weird up directories.
[06:22] <Veinor> It's a holdover from C.
[06:22] <roostishaw> omegacenti: here is the ubuntu launchpad, if you want to check it out: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu
[06:22] <intelikey>             would i be correct in assuming that it is impossable for a user to mount *   without suid  ?
[06:22] <Veinor> How can I change the media player that launches via the 'launch music player' shortcut?
[06:22] <roostishaw> omegacenti: mostly bug reports
[06:22] <armenb> hey...does anyone here know if linux will work with a
[06:22] <armenb> SATA CD/DVD burner?
[06:22] <jrsims> HELLO?
[06:22] <omegacenti> roostishaw: I just ended the process groach from system monitor
[06:23] <roostishaw> omegacenti: that should be fine
[06:23] <bruenig> Veinor, gnome thinks that the ability to do that is just too complex and bewildering
[06:23] <Veinor> You mean I can't? :-(
[06:23] <Dr_willis> armenb,  it should.
[06:23] <armenb> really?
[06:23] <armenb> hmm...
[06:23] <bruenig> Veinor, not on gnome, maybe you can hack around gconf-editor, but no clean way
[06:23] <intelikey> no clues ?
[06:23] <Dr_willis> armenb,  but ive yet to actually try it myself.  Those things are amazing in how rare they are at this time
[06:24] <Dr_willis> intelikey,  with the FUSE tools users can mount all sorts of things. :)
[06:24] <armenb> really?
[06:24] <Veinor> so then how does it determine it in the first place?
[06:24] <armenb> i need a CDR for my linux box
[06:24] <omegacenti> roostishaw: Ah cool :) thanks :)
[06:24] <Dr_willis> armenb,  ive recall seeing ONE in the stores.
[06:24] <intelikey> Dr_willis "without sudi" ?
[06:24] <Zylstra555> I am having problems with my Dell TrueMobile 1300 Wireless PCMCIA card. When I install the Windows Driver (via NDIS Wrapper) it shows as "Not Present" what do I do?
[06:24] <armenb> and newegg is trying to sell me lots of SATA drives...
[06:24] <intelikey> suid
[06:24] <roostishaw> omegacenti: sure, sorry we couldnt get it working
[06:24] <Dr_willis> intelikey,  the fuse tools are basicially doing the task of the suid stuff. i guess is the proper way of saying it.
[06:25] <MultiVerso_> Anyone can help me to enable Digest-MD5 in main.cf on my postfix? I have LOGIN and PLAIN enabled as authentication methods o my server, but when I try to authenticate with evolution, it returns "Connection refused"
[06:25] <omegacenti> roostishaw: np :) thanks for the help!
[06:25] <intelikey> Dr_willis hmmm   i have my doubts, but i'll look into it.
[06:25] <roostishaw> omegacenti: certainly
[06:25] <chrisjs169> how can i clear dns on ubuntu?
[06:25] <Dr_willis> intelikey,  what are you trying to mount exactly?
[06:25] <tylo> can anyone help me solve a "cannot mount root file system" error during the boot process?
[06:25] <intelikey> Dr_willis oh just anything.
[06:25] <Dr_willis> intelikey,  the Fuse tools may be SUID set. Never noticed. :)
[06:26] <intelikey> Dr_willis a cdrom  or a floppy image
[06:26] <Dr_willis> intelikey,  i would guess some of them are. But it is also a kernel module. So ive only used them. not programed them
[06:26] <intelikey> Dr_willis yes i suspect they are.
[06:26] <Zylstra555> I am having problems with my Dell TrueMobile 1300 Wireless PCMCIA card. When I install the Windows Driver (via NDIS Wrapper) it shows as "Not Present" what do I do?
[06:26] <Dr_willis> a floppy image. Hmm. i recall specificially fuse tools to let a user mount iso images.
[06:26] <intelikey> Dr_willis and on a "nosuid" system that's worthless...
[06:27] <Dr_willis> intelikey,  cant recall ever seeing a nosuid system.
[06:27] <ori> is there any ATI drivers for ubuntu?
[06:27] <KEEV> hey on the gnome-look.org webpage under the icon section what is the icon replacement program
[06:28] <intelikey> !fuse > intelikey
[06:28] <Dr_willis> intelikey,  i mainly use the fuse stuff for the sshfs and the sambafs features
[06:28] <roostishaw> chrisjs169: what's the problem?
[06:28] <ori> is there any drivers for radeon x1100?
[06:28] <Dr_willis> intelikey,  they got some encryption features that some people use Ive heard as well.
[06:28] <maikol> how can i get my network to auto configure on boot. it used to do it, but upgraded to feisty and it no longer works. /etc/init.d/networking doesnt work either as in it starts and stops but does nothing to the interfaces
[06:29] <intelikey> if it will get things mounted without root is all i'm after
[06:29] <Zylstra555> I am having problems with my Dell TrueMobile 1300 Wireless PCMCIA card. When I install the Windows Driver (via NDIS Wrapper) it shows as "Not Present" what do I do?
[06:29] <chrisjs169> roostishaw: a domain is resolving to the wrong ip, and i don't really want to change it via /etc/hosts
[06:29] <roostishaw> chrisjs169: /etc/resolv.conf ?
[06:30] <omegacenti> chrisjs169: sounds like you need to clear dns?
[06:30] <roostishaw> right
[06:30] <Dr_willis> intelikey,  it lets my users mount their samba shares  with out them using sudo.  No idea on the 'suid bit' part.
[06:30] <chrisjs169> omegacenti: yeah, i'm trying to figure out how
[06:30] <Monteh> ello :D
[06:31] <mzuverink> using cli, what would the command be to enable the userdir mod from /etc/apache2/mods-available to /mods-enabled?
[06:31] <intelikey> Dr_willis yeah i'm checking it now.
[06:31] <omegacenti> !dns
[06:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dns - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:31] <omegacenti> !nameserver
[06:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nameserver - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:31] <chrisjs169> roostishaw / omegacenti: changed dns servers to something better than my router and it works
[06:32] <omegacenti> chrisjs169: I am glad :)
[06:32] <chrisjs169> no need to do !dns and !nameserver :P
[06:32] <aeyakovenko> i am new to apt, and i want to get packages from this repository, http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/h/, so do i need to add pool?  to my sources.list?
[06:32] <Dr_willis> intelikey,  mountlo -->  Loopback mount filesystem- or disk-images without root privileges.
[06:32] <roostishaw> chrisjs169: just curious, are you using dhcp on the router?
[06:32] <chrisjs169> roostishaw: yes
[06:32] <roostishaw> chrisjs169: does it not reset on reboot?
[06:32] <NeoGeo64> Should I install Ubuntu or WindoWs Vista?
[06:33] <roostishaw> hehe
[06:33] <Journeyman> Nekos, that is a stupid question
[06:33] <redcard> NeoGeo64: Vista.
[06:33] <Madsy> NeoGeo64: Well, what do you use the computer for?
[06:33] <NeoGeo64> mostly porn
[06:33] <Journeyman> lol
[06:33] <BiTMAP_> lol
[06:33] <Bluhd> lol
[06:33] <BiTMAP_> awesome :D
[06:33] <Madsy> Definately Ubuntu ;-)
[06:33] <chrisjs169> roostishaw: it does, but i tihnk i've got a neighbor using my wifi, and i feel like monitoring how much they're downloading (resetting clears it)
[06:33] <Bluhd> well, look at this:
[06:33] <Journeyman> yeah ubuntu would protect you from the viruses and spyware that many port sites contain
 (11:54:37 PM) Michael: localepurge just gave me 62716K back
 (11:55:39 PM) Melissa: that's 61.2460938 more mb you can store porn on
 (11:55:58 PM) Michael: FUCK YEAH
[06:33] <redcard> NeoGeo64: Clearly Vista then. Websites will, if you so wish, install bonus programs that will download even MORE porn for you.
[06:33] <BiTMAP_> Hey, Question, Sound drivers. They work i hear sound, but JACK and other similar apps will not see my sounddevices :|
[06:34] <Madsy> Journeyman: And better less hassle with codecs
[06:34] <Madsy> s/better less/less
[06:34] <BiTMAP_> only codecs are xvid and divx
[06:34] <Journeyman> eh codecs arn't really a problem on either system for me
[06:34] <NeoGeo64> can i use those 900# dialers on ubuntu
[06:34] <Dr_willis> intelikey,  fuse is one of those tools thas so flexable - its fun to see what all has been done with it.
[06:35] <NeoGeo64> can i use wine to install windows trojans and viruses
[06:35] <Journeyman> ...
[06:35] <Journeyman> whats with the trolls
[06:35] <redcard> NeoGeo64: Nope.  Told you, you want Vista.
[06:35] <BiTMAP_> so
[06:35] <redcard> NeoGeo64: #windows .  Have fun :)
[06:35] <roostishaw> chrisjs169: try this while you're at it: http://72.14.253.104/search?hl=en&q=cache%3Ahttp%3A%2F%2Fwww.ex-parrot.com%2F~pete%2Fupside-down-ternet.html&btnG=Google+Search
[06:35] <BiTMAP_> anyone wanna help me get my realtec soundcard to work with the sound apps?
[06:35] <Madpilot> NeoGeo64, not really. There's a great article about wine vs viruses somewhere out there...
[06:35] <Dr_willis> NeoGeo64,  ive used wine to install that stuff to see what it puts where.
[06:36] <cables> How can I manually run fsck when my disk isn't mounted? Should I just use a LiveCD to avoid having it mounted when I run it?
[06:36] <Dr_willis> NeoGeo64,  and to install 'things' and get to the real data/programs and remove the spyware
[06:36] <omegacenti> Alright, whenever I try and save a splash image from gnome-look to /boot/grub/splashimages using firefox, it doesn't work. Any suggestions?
[06:36] <cables> omegacenti: you need to save it somewhere else first
[06:36] <omegacenti> cables: Why?
[06:36] <Bluhd> cables: every 30th boot it'll auto run fsck
[06:36] <cables> omegacenti: firefox doesn't have permission to write there
[06:37] <cables> Bluhd: I'd like to force it to run with my own options
[06:37] <chrisjs169> roostishaw: so you're a Digg user?
[06:37] <Bluhd> ah
[06:37] <BiTMAP_> anyone wanna help me get my realtec soundcard to work with the sound apps?
[06:37] <omegacenti> cables: and probably not recommended to give it said permissions?
[06:37] <roostishaw> chrisjs169: :)
[06:37] <cables> omegacenti: then do alt-f2 and < gksudo nautilus /boot/grub/splashimages > and drag it in there
[06:37] <roostishaw> chrisjs169: what about yourself?
[06:37] <chrisjs169> yup
[06:37] <cables> omegacenti: just download it to the desktop, and do what I said, and drag it from desktop to there.
[06:37] <omegacenti> cables: from like the desktop
[06:37] <omegacenti> cables thanks :)
[06:37] <cables> omegacenti: just beat you by a few seconds :)
[06:38] <chrisjs169> if only that 166 MHz router Verizon gave me could handle squid =/
[06:38] <roostishaw> heh
[06:38] <roostishaw> chrisjs169: although it does *really* tick me off that that story makes it to the front page every few weeks...
[06:38] <omegacenti> cables: Thanks again for being nerdy :)
[06:38] <cables> ha
[06:38] <chrisjs169> yeah
[06:38] <intelikey> Dr_willis let me guess requires 2.6+ kernel ?    Setting up fuse-utils (2.4.2-0ubuntu3) ...

[06:38] <Dr_willis> intelikey,  actually the faq i think said it worked with 2.4
[06:39] <omegacenti> roostishaw: What story?
[06:39] <intelikey> hmmmm
[06:39] <Dr_willis> but i jsut skimmed the faq/docs/wiki page a few min ago. but i THOUGHT i saw that mentioned
[06:39] <roostishaw> omegacenti: http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&ct=res&cd=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fdigg.com%2Fsecurity%2FSo_neighbors_steal_your_wi_fi_net_access_kill_the_connection_or_have_fun&ei=doBrRvuPHp6wggOxi5ThAg&usg=AFQjCNGdIw-Pgh7_Q_BAtjUXibo4qt0XTQ&sig2=K8c5LvW7cw0NY8iJ-OmI3A
[06:39] <roostishaw> oops, sorry for the long url people...
[06:39] <BiTMAP_> tinyurl.com ;)
[06:39] <roostishaw> heh, right
[06:40] <Dr_willis> intelikey,  Runs on Linux kernels 2.4.X and 2.6.X    - first page says.  http://fuse.sourceforge.net/
[06:40] <cables> Where can I find more Tomboy plugins?
[06:40] <cables> can anyone see this? My hotel wifi just crapped out on me, i want to see if i'm still connected
[06:40] <cables> !test
[06:40] <ubotu> failed
[06:40] <roostishaw> cables: yep
[06:40] <Madpilot> cables, you seem to be here still...
[06:40] <Dr_willis> cables,  4+2 = ?
[06:40] <redcard> cables: There aren't that many plugins for Tomboy
[06:41] <omegacenti> Is a strong wpa2 AES passphrase with mac address filtering good enough to secure a wireless router?
[06:41] <cables> omegacenti: more than enough
[06:41] <BiTMAP_> uhm
[06:41] <cables> Can anyone see this? My hotel wifi just crapped out on me and I think I'm not connected properly
[06:41] <BiTMAP_> WEP is enough to secure a wireless router.
[06:41] <omegacenti> cables: I can see
[06:41] <BiTMAP_> your up cables
[06:41] <cables> BiTMAP_: not really
[06:41] <roostishaw> omegacenti: if you're really crazy, I suppose you could use RADIUS
[06:41] <Frogzoo> BiTMAP_: wep can be cracked given time
[06:41] <BiTMAP_> yah
[06:42] <omegacenti> roostishaw: don't know what radius is. I would like to know more though.
[06:42] <BiTMAP_> but anything can be cracked given time
[06:42] <cables> Frogzoo: it can be cracked given about 10 minutes now.
[06:42] <omegacenti> Frogzoo: can wpa be cracked? what about wpa2?
[06:42] <cables> BiTMAP_: yes, except that WPA takes much, much longer to crack (longer than you'll live) than WEP
[06:42] <redcard> cables: Not really.
[06:42] <cables> redcard: maybe not longer than you'll live...
[06:42] <cables> but WAY longer than WEP
[06:42] <BiTMAP_> 256bit encryption is about is good
[06:42] <BiTMAP_> well no
[06:42] <redcard> cables: It depends.
[06:42] <BiTMAP_> its possible
[06:43] <BiTMAP_> but really, most folks aint gonna try even.
[06:43] <cables> but they could, if they really wanted it
[06:43] <cables> *in
[06:43] <omegacenti> cables: how long do you think a wpa passphrase should be? wpa2?
[06:43] <roostishaw> omegacenti: http://www.wi-fiplanet.com/tutorials/article.php/3114511
[06:43] <Zylstra555> I am having problems with my Dell TrueMobile 1300 Wireless PCMCIA card. When I install the Windows Driver (via NDIS Wrapper) it shows as "Not Present" what do I do?
[06:43] <cables> omegacenti: as long as a normal password
[06:43] <omegacenti> cables: how long is that?
[06:43] <Bluhd> the passphrase is FFFF
[06:43] <redcard> cables: I've seen people do REALLY fast WPA cracks.  But , then again, this day and age, WEP is perfectly fine if you run an unbroadcasted net
[06:43] <Bluhd> >_>
[06:43] <Bluhd> <_<
[06:43] <cables> omegacenti: I use at least 8
[06:43] <roostishaw> redcard: not true at all
[06:43] <omegacenti> redcard: how do you run unbroadcasted and still connect?
[06:44] <roostishaw> redbox: heard of a deauth attack?
[06:44] <cables> omegacenti: type in the SSID yourself
[06:44] <BiTMAP_> redcard: even unbroadcasted isnt exceptionally great, vista lists even the unbroadcasted wireless nets, just doesnt give you a name
[06:44] <redcard> omegacenti: You know the name of the SSID
[06:44] <omegacenti> redcard: yes, turn off essid in the past has crapped out my thing.
[06:44] <PeDePano> hello
[06:44] <redcard> BiTMAP_: That's weird, because I have Vista, and it doesn't list mine.
[06:44] <khermans> nord
[06:44] <cables> WEP is cracked now? wth?
[06:44] <roostishaw> a deauthentication attack will instantly reveal a hidden ssid
[06:44] <cables> i mean
[06:44] <cables> WPA
[06:44] <cables> I know that WEP is cracked
[06:44] <intelikey> Dr_willis all i can get out of fusermount is a standerd error    fusermount: old style mounting not supported
[06:44] <arooo> d
[06:44] <redcard> cables: Like we said.  Given time, they're all crackable.
[06:45] <BiTMAP_> redcard: that is :| cuase yah, we where testing it in training (i work at the ev0l dell in software support) and we could see an unbroadcasted wireless network.
[06:45] <cables> redcard: exactly, even my GPG is crackable, GIVEN TIME.
[06:45] <zero> im trying to mount an ISO with this mount -o loop macromedia_dreamweaver.msi /home
[06:45] <CokeMan> anyone know a stable torrent downloader? that handles multiple torrents?
[06:45] <cables> The question is how much time.
[06:45] <cables> CokeMan: Deluge, or uTorrent in Wine
[06:45] <fstxx> hi! what IRC clients are you guys running? I am using gaim, but I am not happy. I want one that hides enetr/left/disconnect messages.
[06:45] <PeDePano> why some itens of my ubuntu menus appear blank?
[06:45] <Dr_willis> intelikey,  no idea there. Ive only used it a few times and had no issues.
[06:45] <zero> im missing the filesystem, what would it be?
[06:45] <roostishaw> years...
[06:45] <cables> fstxx: definitely Xchat is the way to go
[06:45] <khermans> CokeMan, rtorrent
[06:45] <Dr_willis> intelikey,  i think they got a Channel here. Good luck
[06:45] <Frogzoo> zero: iso9660
[06:45] <redcard> fstxx: irssi.
[06:45] <Madpilot> fstxx, xchat can hide join/part msgs
[06:45] <gordboy> fstxx, do a ctcp version on me, and see
[06:45] <omegacenti> cool :) just turned off essid broadcast :)
[06:46] <omegacenti> uh oh...
[06:46] <cables> gordboy: nice version mod... sorta
[06:46] <omegacenti> Can you see this?
[06:46] <cables> omegacenti: no
[06:46] <zero> Frogzoo: and in what part of the command would it be placed?
[06:46] <omegacenti> cables: bleh.
[06:46] <fstxx> gordboy: cant;t you just tell me. I am not an irc expert :->
[06:46] <Frogzoo> !iso | zero
[06:46] <ubotu> zero: 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.
[06:46] <cables> fstxx: he's just messing with you
[06:46] <gordboy> fstxx gordchat 2.01
[06:46] <omegacenti> awesome, now its not being broadcast.
[06:46] <yurimxpxman> what functions should I use to read/write files with ncurses? The stdio functions won't work with it.
[06:46] <omegacenti> cables: how strong is radius?
[06:46] <PeDePano> why some itens of my ubuntu menus appear blank? i am using ubuntu 7.04
[06:47] <zero> Frogzoo: yeah and where it goes iso9660?
[06:47] <fstxx> gordboy: and you are the authour of it?
[06:47] <omegacenti> cables: is there a big difference between security in wpa and wpa2?
[06:47] <khermans> yurimxpxman, ncurses has nothing to do with read/write files
[06:47] <zero> Frogzoo: ISO-filename would be the iso itself, mountpoint directory, so where it goes the filesystem?
[06:47] <maikol> zero: mount -t iso9660 -o loop image point
[06:47] <gordboy> fstxx, it's really xchat, with a bespoke ctcp version reply
[06:47] <PyroSama> idefixx: howdy
[06:47] <zero> maikol: thank you
[06:48] <maikol> zero: np
[06:48] <redcard> gordboy: Be careful with that ;)
[06:48] <thai> hi. Is it possible to play a xvid file on feisty? If yes, which codec & player shoudl I have?
[06:48] <redcard> gordboy: Many IRC networks will do a version on you, and if they don't recognize the client, kline you as a spambot
[06:48] <PeDePano> dk
[06:48] <khermans> thai, sudo aptitude install vlc
[06:49] <gordboy> bespoke == tailor made, for the benefit of our teenage colonial friends
[06:49] <thai> khermans: how about codecs?
[06:49] <zero> !pastebin
[06:49] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[06:49] <khermans> thai, unnecessary
[06:49] <PyroSama> khermans: I find that installing from package manger gui gives you a better install not sure why but when installing from command line vlc doesnt show up in the run with menu
[06:49] <cables> thai: just double click it, it'll install the necessary codec automatically.
[06:50] <fstxx> is irssi descen
[06:50] <cables> fstxx: it's commandline only, but if you like that, it's great
[06:50] <thai> thanks khermans & cables.
[06:50] <fstxx> is irssi descended from ircII?
[06:50] <PeDePano> has does anybody here installed a wireless device on ubuntu feisty?
[06:50] <gordboy> decent enough. but xchat is the shiznitz
[06:50] <khermans> PyroSama, it shoudl have the same effect, explain further
[06:50] <khermans> thai, np
[06:50] <cables> fstxx: if you want a GUI client, just use Xchat, it rocks
[06:51] <fstxx> cables: sorry, I missed your suggestion among the enter/left lines
[06:51] <zero> maikol: check this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24946/
[06:51] <redcard> fstxx: It's terminal based, but then again, It's very customizable, and since IRC is a text based medium, I didn't see a good use for xchat
[06:51] <cables> I switched to Pidgin though, with a ton of plugins that make IRC a little more tolerable, because I like having my channels in my buddy list.
[06:51] <khermans> PeDePano, sure tons
[06:51] <zero> maikol: i could not mount it
[06:51] <PyroSama> khermans: I ran a test on a fresh install because I thought it was odd that this happened. I install from terminal and find an avi right click no vlc. Remove vlc install with package manager right click the same avi and vlc is now an option
[06:51] <maikol> zero: what kind of image is it
[06:51] <fstxx> redcard: very cutsomizable, hmm, does that mean it does not work very well out out of the box?
[06:51] <gordboy> redcard, there are no other irc networks, apart from freenode. dalnet has gone down the toilet. efnet still sucks. undernet is falling apart. anyways, i like it here. everyone is as mad as i am :)
[06:52] <redcard> fstxx: Works perfectly fine out of the box.
[06:52] <PeDePano> khermans, i am using a atheros device on a acer aspire laptop... no way to works :(
[06:52] <cables> fstxx: no, it's fine out of the box, but it's harder to configure and stuff.
[06:52] <zero> maikol: extension .msi           that is what you mean?
[06:52] <alexmax> gartt: OFTC rocks
[06:52] <maikol> zero: your not mounting an sio imgae, your mounting an install file
[06:52] <alexmax> so does quakenet
[06:52] <zero> maikol: ohh
[06:52] <maikol> zero: you cant mount that
[06:52] <khermans> PyroSama, r u sure you didnt associate it after first click?
[06:52] <zero> maikol: im confused now
[06:52] <reinaldo> Hi
[06:52] <zero> maikol: give me a sec let me check
[06:52] <maikol> zero: what exactly are you trying to do
[06:52] <khermans> PeDePano, ndiswrapper always works
[06:52] <reinaldo> I need Help
[06:53] <fstxx> in synaptic thera are two xchat versions, one xchat and one xchat-gnome. Which one shoul I use?
[06:53] <PyroSama> khermans: Yes I am quite sure. It was not an option and I didn't open the file when the vlc was not an option.
[06:53] <cables> fstxx: xchat
[06:53] <symbiote> hey everyone.. woo! i re-installed ubuntu.. re-installed those updates.. now i got no problems.. (minus teh stupid bootiproblem but its bearable the os works fine from recovery mode "init 5"
[06:53] <cables> fstxx: xchat-gnome is a watered-down version
[06:53] <khermans> PyroSama, but just clicking it might populate some db
[06:53] <zero> maikol: run dreamweaver, with wine, but i thought i had to mount the image of dreamweaver first to get the setup.exe or something like that, im not sure what i am doing
[06:53] <PeDePano> khermans, that was my doubt: there is nothing better than ndiswrapper, right?
[06:53] <Zylstra555> I am trying to install a device in Ubuntu, and have installed the Windows driver, but it is showing as "Not Present"
[06:53] <reinaldo> Can anybbody help me please??
[06:54] <cables> !anyone | reinaldo
[06:54] <ubotu> reinaldo: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[06:54] <khermans> PeDePano, its better if there is an open source driver, but ndiswrapper will work if there is none
[06:54] <maikol> zero: run wine on the file your trying to mount
[06:54] <PyroSama> khermans: Its posible.
[06:54] <zero> maikol: ok
[06:54] <reinaldo> Thx
[06:54] <fstxx> cables: yes that seems to be what the gnome project does.
[06:54] <khermans> reinaldo, ask your question
[06:54] <cables> fstxx: I agree with it for most things, but xchat-gnome takes it way overboard.
[06:55] <PeDePano> khermans, i don t think there s a native driver, only ndiswrapper... do u know a really good tutorial about it?
[06:55] <elpargo> how can I force apt to redeploy files to /etc
[06:55] <Chago> How I can see my free disk space?
[06:55] <khermans> PeDePano, model number?
[06:55] <elpargo> Chago, df and du
[06:55] <khermans> i will brb
[06:55] <maikol> Chago: df -h
[06:55] <symbiote> ndiswrapper sux.. it never worked for me.. it would load teh drivers sure easy.. but teh device would never really work.. it woudl find wireless networks fine.. but it would never connect to them.. I wasted soo much time with those stupid RA73 drivers.. do urself a favour and buy a Bridge.. it works with no drivers!
[06:55] <PeDePano> khermans, atheros 5007eg net5211.inf file
[06:55] <reinaldo> I have a problem trying to connect over my home wi-fi connection I have a tp-link wireless router
[06:56] <ivx> hey i am trying tt figure out how to use rsync to make an ubuntu mirror but can't seem to find any step by step documentation, does anyone know of any such documentation?
[06:57] <Frogzoo> !mirror
[06:57] <ubotu> Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[06:57] <cables> Chago: if you want a nice graphical representation of that, go to Applications>Accessories>Disk Usage Analyzer
[06:57] <Zylstra555> I am trying to install a device in Ubuntu, and have installed the Windows driver, but it is showing as "Not Present"
[06:57] <ivx> frogzoo, that wasn't the question, i know where to get a copy.
[06:57] <reinaldo> it was direct in windows, but i changed to Ubuntu to forget windows, Ubuntu detects my wi-fi card and it also detects my ssid network but it still doesnt connect
[06:58] <redcard> reinaldo: I had the same problem.  Turns out, NDISwrapper seems to be the only way to do the wireless driver on my DELL laptop
[06:58] <intelikey> fuse fails also.    i really don't think it's possable without a rootkit  for normal users to mount
[06:58] <felix> reinaldo, do you use "wap"/"wep" key?
[06:58] <PeDePano> reinaldo, does yr wireless router use wpa?
[06:59] <BiTMAP_> :'( my sound driver is not working
[06:59] <omegacenti_> I hosed my connection.
[06:59] <reinaldo> i have completely unlocked it
[06:59] <ivx> reinaldo, make sure you select the right kind of encription from the list, i had that problem
[06:59] <pike_> omegacenti_: ?
[06:59] <zero> maikol: i cant it says bad exe format
[06:59] <Zylstra555> bitmaap_: What driver are you trying to use?
[06:59] <PeDePano> reinaldo, check if the wpa key is ascii or hexa...
[06:59] <reinaldo> its unprotected
[06:59] <BiTMAP_> Zylstra555: I have a realtec card
[06:59] <BiTMAP_> and I let it install the defualts
[07:00] <omegacenti_> pike_: Alright, in my linksys router, there is an encryption option called TKIP or AES, I used it, but there doesn't seem to be an option like that in Network Applet 0.6.4
[07:00] <Zylstra555> bitmap_: What program are you using to install the drivers? Ndiswrapper?
[07:00] <BiTMAP_> that didnt work, so i installed a pack supposidly for my card, but it does not appear to have worked
[07:00] <katara> hi, somebody know how to mount a freebsd partition on linux?
[07:00] <BiTMAP_> Zylstra555: naw, It was a linux driver
[07:00] <reinaldo> its wep, hex
[07:00] <pike_> omegacenti_: ah.  yeah i know nothing about either of those ;-)
[07:00] <reinaldo> without password
[07:00] <maikol> have you checked the winehq.com site to see if dreamweaver works
[07:01] <Zylstra555> BiTMAP_: To tell you the truth, I know hardly anything about Linux... so I cant really get you much farther
[07:01] <redcard> BiTMAP_: Sounds very familiar to me.   I have found the fwcutter method that Ubuntu seems to use to be quite messy
[07:01] <omegacenti_> Alright, in my linksys router, there is an encryption option called TKIP or AES, I used it, but there doesn't seem to be an option like that in NetworkManager Applet 0.6.4
[07:01] <zero> maikol: yes it works
[07:01] <Zylstra555> I am trying to install a device in Ubuntu, and have installed the Windows driver, but it is showing as "Not Present"
[07:01] <pike_> katara: not sure ufs is supported out of the box in ubuntu
[07:01] <omegacenti_> So I couldn't connect to my router.
[07:01] <BiTMAP_> redcard:  the waah?? haha :| yah, basicly i have sound, but applications cant find the hardware acceleration :|
[07:01] <maikol> zero: alright, so tell me exactly what you downloaded and what you have done so far
[07:01] <katara> pike_, read-only, thats what i need
[07:01] <PeDePano> reinaldo, try wep ascii
[07:01] <pike_> omegacenti_: so you cant deselect the encryption?
[07:01] <redcard> BiTMAP_: Ack.  Thought you meant the wifi. :) Got you confused with someone.
[07:02] <omegacenti_> pike_: in the router? yes.
[07:02] <BiTMAP_> redcard: haha its ok ;)
[07:02] <redcard> BiTMAP_: But.. Hardware acceleration on the sound?   Or on video?
[07:02] <BiTMAP_> redcard: you know anything about soundcard.
[07:02] <roostishaw> .
[07:02] <omegacenti_> pike_: hold on Im going to reconnect wirelessly
[07:02] <zero> maikol: i follow installation instructions from winehq.org
[07:02] <omegacenti_> pike_: Im currently red in
[07:02] <reinaldo> ok

[07:02] <AS6> hello everyone...i`m a new bie, a very newbie. Just downloaded ubuntu. and its in the ISO format. what tool that i use to burn it? Can it co-exist on the same machine as windows?
[07:03] <redcard> BiTMAP_: I know a lot of "Hardware Acceleration" on soundcards is really just software.. so I'd search the ubuntuforums at "Ubuntuforums.org"
[07:03] <BiTMAP_> rgr
[07:03] <PeDePano> AS6, yes,,, will u use windows for burn cds?
[07:03] <AS6> yes

[07:04] <zero> maikol: http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[07:04] <PeDePano> AS6, just double click an iso image and let a program like nero burn it for u
[07:04] <AS6> at the moment, i`m on WinXP
[07:04] <redcard> cables: For what its' worth, I do think I'll give xchat a second chance ;) I had written it off after using xchat-gnome

[07:04] <Madpilot> AS6, actually: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[07:05] <AS6> thanks, Ubuto. Thats so helpful of u.
[07:05] <PeDePano> Zylstra555, same thing to me
[07:05] <Frogzoo> Zylstra555: que? ubuntu doesn't use windows drivers (cept for printers/some wifi)
[07:05] <pike_> katara: well im not on an ubuntu box right now but gentoo docs say: mount -r -t ufs -o ufstype=44bsd /dev/hda1 /mnt/

[07:06] <Zylstra555> Oh, not this again
[07:06] <AS6> thanks, pedepano
[07:06] <Zylstra555> I have looked at all the documentation
[07:06] <cables> Why does the right-click menu of some disks say "Unmount Volume" and some say "Eject"? Both do the same thing.
[07:06] <PeDePano> AS6, u r welcome
[07:06] <Zylstra555> The problem is the device is showing as "Not Present"
[07:06] <intelikey> so if i want users to be able to mount a cdrom    but my system is mounted nosuid    what can i do ?
[07:06] <omegacenti> What is stronger for wireless: AES or TKIP?
[07:06] <PyroSama> How do I change the temp files, cookie file, history file location?

[07:11] <MISTERTibbs_> reinaldo: let's talk
[07:11] <IndyGunFreak> !wireless | reinaldo

[07:12] <maikol> zero: so you go tthat error when you tytped: wine file.msi
[07:12] <Shankysv87> i've read the wiki.. but i wasn't able to find where it tells how to get it going...
[07:12] <shijirou> ?
[07:12] <Shankysv87> skimmed it anyway
[07:12] <shijirou> what is it exactly you are trying to do with beryl?
[07:12] <Shankysv87> maybe i'm reading the wrong wiki lol
[07:12] <Shankysv87> what is the wiki address?

[07:13] <Shankysv87> i'm trying to find out what it can do
[07:13] <shijirou> Shankysv87: i posted the wiki... scroll up
[07:13] <zero> maikol:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24948/
[07:13] <Shankysv87> ok thanks
[07:13] <cables> dhruva023: I cannot connect to your server. To make this work properly, you need to forward the port 5900 on your router. Also, beryl needs to be disabled or whoever's connecting will only get the first frame.
[07:13] <maikol> zero: try msiexec.exe file.msi
[07:14] <dhruva023> ok
[07:14] <MISTERTibbs_> reinaldo: uboto is a robot, fyi
[07:14] <dhruva023> let me do it
[07:14] <reinaldo_> dindn't know
[07:14] <intelikey> AS6  hehhe  C and D   not in linux.   sda1 & sda2  maybe
[07:14] <dhruva023> how do i forward the port?

[07:15] <soyporti> hey does anyone install mandriva using qemu?
[07:15] <zero> maikol:  well actually i only have one exe file and its a keygen.exe
[07:15] <AS6> Can i use ubunto on the same machine that is running winxp? I have some files on my winxp....and need to use them. Can i have like 2 options to boot from? either from linux or win?
[07:15] <maikol> zero: without the .exe, sorry. so it would be msiexec file.msi
[07:15] <soyporti> it ask for a username?
[07:15] <intelikey> AS6 installing into a file system that doesn't support permissions bits ?      i don't think you can.     cigwin maybe
[07:15] <cables> AS6: yes.
[07:15] <DShepherd> AS6, yes
[07:16] <cables> intelikey: what are you talking about?
[07:16] <iMayKnow> AS6, you can dual boot or run it in vmware or the like
[07:16] <cables> AS6: the installer will automatically resize Windows for you if you select "resize existing" or whatever
[07:16] <cables> AS6: if that doesn't show up as an option, come back here and we'll tell you how to do it manually.
[07:16] <soyporti> why is mandriva one 2007 asking me for a username? it is because i'm using qemu?
[07:16] <intelikey> cables  you can't install linux in ntfs space   nor into vfat space
[07:16] <zero> maikol:  yes that is what i am trying to do
[07:16] <zero> maikol:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24948/
[07:16] <cables> intelikey: sure you can
[07:17] <cables> intelikey: it's called loopmounting
[07:17] <intelikey> cables that's what i was talking about.     and lagging.
[07:17] <cables> intelikey: and he's not asking how to install it on his existing partition
[07:17] <cables> intelikey: he just wants to keep Windows intact.

[07:23] <Bandit_> man i love the linux community already.
[07:23] <maikol> zero: and once its installed, to run dreamweaver, it will have to be using the wine command. for example, wine dreamweaver.exe or whatever the exec file name is
[07:23] <lazaruslupine> Bandit_,  just type the first few letters and hit the tab key
[07:23] <cables> AS6: dual booting the normal way will resize the ntfs partition, and is a bit riskier than Wubi. However, Ubuntu installed through Wubi isn't as good, and it's beta
[07:24] <czaveri> My display has been setup as 1024x768 but it should be 1280x800. (Dell Lat D680). xorg.conf displays correct info but it just doesn't work as 1280x800.

[07:29] <lazaruslupine> czaveri,  yeah and check the forums too

[07:31] <intelikey> cables so you boot windows then exec a second stage boot loader that dumps windows and starts linux  ???   interesting
[07:32] <Tom47> cables ah well that would not have helped me then looks like it colinux or nothing
[07:33] <intelikey> Tom47 well i'm inpressed.  i didn't know that anyone was building a system that could use ntfs hosting for ext#    (and yes i know about mount -o loop, that's not what i meant)
[07:34] <intelikey> now if anyone could tell me how i might make normal users able to mount fs's  with a nosuid system ...... ?

[07:46] <IndyGunFreak> jrsims, search the repos, i'm sure there is one.
[07:46] <AS6> I already downloaded ubuntu file. Rite now, i am launching the installation using WUBI. Wubi is now downloading the files again, but i already have the file. How do i make wubi to use the file that already exist?

[07:47] <IndyGunFreak> !wireless | saeed

[07:47] <melon> yes!
[07:48] <intelikey> Razor__ all processes have parrents.  except init!     but init may be it's parrent and you can't kill init.   (normally)
[07:48] <melon> lol - i spent up to a week trying to figure out how..
[07:48] <Razor__> Ahh =\
[07:48] <intelikey> Razor__ what is the process ?
[07:48] <cables> How do I set a default font in OpenOffice.org? I've tried setting the font for the Default style, but it didn't stick.

[07:48] <Zemus> Hi! I'm new to ubuntu, and my microphone doesn't work. Any ideas?
[07:48] <Razor__> It died eventually o_x; just takes a little longer than it should
[07:49] <saeed> indy I tried every thing I had linksys notbook adapter but it is not woking
[07:49] <omegacenti> wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add does this look safe?
[07:49] <CokeMan> where does firefox store its cache?
[07:49] <intelikey> well does it have a window or icon or anything Razor__   "i'm not familear with blender"
[07:49] <saeed> I am new to ununtu but my wirless conection is not working
[07:49] <IndyGunFreak> !wget
[07:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wget - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:49] <IndyGunFreak> wget rocks.
[07:49] <omegacenti> IndyGunFreak: I don't know if I should do that.
[07:49] <Quall> Hi
[07:49] <Quall> I am totally newq
[07:49] <Razor__> It's a window, it's a 3D program
[07:49] <IndyGunFreak> why not?
[07:49] <Quall> And I need some real help with Ubuntu
[07:49] <Razor__> intelikey: it has a window
[07:50] <omegacenti> IndyGunFreak: that command. I don't know what it does.
[07:50] <IndyGunFreak> what are you trying to install?
[07:50] <saeed> any help?
[07:50] <KEEV> How can i make my xterm trans? By editing my profile? if so where can it be found?
[07:50] <IndyGunFreak> !wireless | saeed
[07:50] <ubotu> saeed: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:50] <intelikey> Razor__ oh   ok.      and it was probably just waiting for a child proccess to return.          (i'm lagging if you didn't notice)
[07:50] <Quall> Can anyone provide help installing an agere soft pci modem driver?
[07:50] <aubade> KEEV: What emulator you using?
[07:50] <IndyGunFreak> omegacenti, what are you trying to install?
[07:50] <Razor__> intelikey: no problem =)
[07:50] <Razor__> intelikey: thanks ^_^
[07:51] <omegacenti> IndyGunFreak: the LATEST version of wine
[07:51] <intelikey> Razor__ normally anything that has a window    you can use   "xkill" on.
[07:51] <Tom47> AS6 it would appear you would need to use the alternate iso installer rather than the ivecd
[07:51] <KEEV> xterm? forgive me aubade this is my first week on ubuntu(linux period).
[07:51] <omegacenti> IndyGunFreak: wow those guys over at winehq are @$$holes.
[07:51] <IndyGunFreak> omegacenti, lol
[07:51] <IndyGunFreak> omegacenti, did you go to http://www.winehq.com
[07:51] <tone> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=407859
[07:51] <aubade> Ah, xterm doesn't support psuedo or actual transparency from what I know.
[07:51] <omegacenti> IndyGunFreak: yeah
[07:51] <Tom47> AS6 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide#head-60b926cce3373ab80f68bdc74caa7587d087b269
[07:51] <tone> can anyone confirm this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=407859
[07:51] <Razor__> intelikey: Yeah, that works unless I need to change the screen to grab the terminal because it's in fullscreen and not updating
[07:51] <IndyGunFreak> it has pretty clear instructions.
[07:51] <maikol> KEEV: xterm no tranparency. aterm -tr will do the trick for aterm
[07:51] <tone> is anyone running 21?
[07:51] <omegacenti> IndyGunFreak: here look at this:http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[07:52] <basswaster> i've copied the cd to an iso and copied it to the hdd, but the nocd installer won't find it... help?
[07:52] <KEEV> Ok..
[07:52] <KEEV> When i installed it via synaptic manager...
[07:52] <aubade> If you want to retain settings, most terminals rely on .Xdefaults. gnome-terminal, konsole, and xfce4-terminal all have menus and save their settings elsewhere.
[07:52] <KEEV> i cant find the icon
[07:52] <reinaldo_> !ntfs | reinaldo
[07:52] <ubotu> reinaldo: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[07:52] <KEEV> or maybe its a command to run it?
[07:52] <CokeMan> does anyone know where firefox stores its internet cache?
[07:52] <aubade> Command to run what? :o
[07:52] <intelikey> Tom47 i won't but in there but you might mention to as'six'  to be sure to check the disk after burning too.
[07:52] <IndyGunFreak> omegacenti, yes, its perfectly safe
[07:52] <KEEV> xterm
[07:52] <KEEV> or
[07:53] <cables> CokeMan: in ~/.mozilla/firefox/profilefolder
[07:53] <omegacenti> IndyGunFreak: k
[07:53] <KEEV> aterm
[07:53] <omegacenti> IndyGunFreak: following guide fully then
[07:53] <IndyGunFreak> the "apt key add".. its adding the wine repository to your repo list, so wine wil update automatically, etc.
[07:53] <IndyGunFreak> omegacenti, yeah..
[07:53] <IndyGunFreak> i did, and it snever given me an issue
[07:53] <cables> CokeMan: if you want to clear it, just go to Tools>Clear Private Data
[07:53] <aubade> It's simply 'aterm'.
[07:53] <Tom47> AS6 did you see intelikey's comment above?
[07:53] <KEEV> hum
[07:53] <intelikey> Razor__ hehhe yeah  "xkill" on full screen   "might" kill your window manager...    ;/
[07:53] <CokeMan> cables: nah, i was intrested in making a program, exparimental in nature. thx
[07:53] <cables> CokeMan: ok
[07:53] <Razor__> intelikey: lol
[07:53] <|-David-|> alright, can ANYONE help me with this screen blackout? I just put in an NVIDIA TNT2 Vanta card. It blanks right before the login and won't let me get any further. I have an onboard card, too, but my BIOS says that the PCI card is already taking precedence over the onboard. Any takers?
[07:54] <IndyGunFreak> brb
[07:54] <aubade> Can you disable the onboard entirely in the BIOS, David?
[07:54] <matthew> I've given up attempting to become a programmer; I have enough trouble figuring out the formation of the Linux filesystems
[07:54] <|-David-|> Not that I can see
[07:55] <basswaster> help?
[07:55] <matthew> help?
[07:55] <basswaster> no cd install?
[07:55] <Quall> I need help installing an agere soft pci modem driver. Can anyone PM me to help please? It would be much appreciated
[07:55] <AS6> Tom47: I am using WUBI, not the direct installer.
[07:55] <chrisjs169> i'm getting 'svn: relocation error: svn: undefined symbol: svn_ra_initialize' when trying to use svn...any ideas?
[07:55] <matthew> Oh.... any explanations on installing w32codec?
[07:55] <matthew> I'm having the worst of tribulations
[07:55] <KEEV> aubade, i'll right i have it installed.. how do i look at its config>
[07:55] <|-David-|> Maybe there is something in my Windows XP that i can disable it with?
[07:56] <intelikey> Razor__ this is a command that can be used,  WITH EXTREEM CAUTION!  killall5    and/or   kill -9 -1     but those are drastic measures
[07:56] <basswaster> no cd install?
[07:56] <aubade> KEEV: Have what installed, aterm?
[07:56] <basswaster> local network install?
[07:56] <CokeMan> cables: firefox stores stuff in one big file doesnt it?
[07:56] <Razor__> intelikey: hm... lemme give that a try
[07:56] <KEEV> aubade, yes
[07:57] <intelikey> Razor__ and you really don't want that last one as root   hehhe  kills all but init.
[07:57] <matthew> Anybody able to assist me with the installation of w32codecs?
[07:57] <basswaster> i've got another computer running windows... cant work out how to set up a tftp server to install ubuntu
[07:57] <Razor__> intelikey: er.. nevermind then c_c;
[07:57] <omegacenti> how do I find out what the link in my applications menu actually points to? like for instance I have something called wine, and I want to know what version it is.
[07:57] <slackmagic> CokeMan: not really ..look inside $HOME/.mozilla/firefox/xxxxx.default
[07:57] <matthew> I know it's pathetic and there are online intructions but I've failed repetitiously
[07:57] <maikol> omegacenti: wine --version
[07:57] <chrisjs169> re: svn issue?
[07:57] <Quall> I need help installing an agere soft pci modem driver. If someone could pm me that would be much appreciated
[07:58] <matthew> although, i did finally manage to install wine
[07:58] <CokeMan> i did
[07:58] <IndyGunFreak> omegacenti: open a terminal, type.. "wine --ver"  no quotes
[07:58] <omegacenti> maikol: Im talking about the link in my applications folder. I need to know if it points to the right wine
[07:58] <CokeMan> slackmagic, i did, and theres a folder in there called Cache with 2 files in there
[07:58] <omegacenti> IndyGunFreak: read message to maikol
[07:58] <maikol> omegacenti: or use "which" to find the path of the exec in question;so which wine
[07:58] <omegacenti> maikol: um... the one in my applications folder... oy...
[07:58] <intelikey> matthew you have the .deb package down loaded  ?
[07:58] <aubade> KEEV: aterm itself doesn't have a configuration all to its own, it uses the .Xdefaults file in your home directory. There's a plethora of options listed in aterm's manual.
[07:58] <omegacenti> Im not sure if Im getting it out right.
[07:58] <omegacenti> sorry
[07:58] <IndyGunFreak> omegacenti: are you wanting to know your wine version?
[07:59] <maikol> omegacenti: which is a command
[07:59] <cables> CokeMan: not that I know of
[07:59] <Shankysv87> cables!
[07:59] <Shankysv87> your back
[07:59] <cables> Shankysv87: what?
[07:59] <chrisjs169> re: svn issue?
[07:59] <slackmagic> CokeMan: you sure you didn't go inside root's .mozilla/firefox ?
[07:59] <omegacenti> IndyGunFreak: no. wanting to know what this wine thing in my gnonme applications menu is pointing to
[07:59] <cables> Shankysv87: did I miss anything you said?
[07:59] <KEEV> aubade, humm so how can i make it trans?
[07:59] <Shankysv87> i think
[07:59] <intelikey> matthew  sudo dpkg -i path/to/packagename.deb     it's that simple    iirc.
[07:59] <aubade> KEEV: http://linuxreviews.org/software/x11-terms/aterm/Xdefaults.aterm.txt <-- Good example.
[07:59] <Shankysv87> it is an emerald theme
[07:59] <IndyGunFreak> omegacenti: oh ok.. i have no idea on that.
[07:59] <Quall> I need help locating and installing an agere soft pci modem driver. If someone could pm me that would be much appreciated
[07:59] <Shankysv87> but when i click on it, it still does nothing
[07:59] <matthew> ooh thanks
[07:59] <KEEV> aubade, thank you!
[07:59] <maikol> omegacenti: type which wine
[08:00] <Tom47> AS6 unless you have the alternate install iso i think you are tuck with the download
[08:00] <CokeMan> slackmagic, yeah, i went into mine, i've got _CACHE_001_ and _CACHE_MAP_
[08:00] <omegacenti> maikol: not in a cli... I am talking about something I am clicking. inside of gnome. can't tell if its opening the right wine...
[08:00] <Tom47> AS6 stuck*
[08:00] <maikol> oh
[08:01] <maikol> omegacenti: dunno since i dont use gnome
[08:01] <intelikey> matthew err i think there was also a script in either that package or the one for dvds    i dont  remember which.  but you had to do something like  sudo sh /usr/lib/something/script.sh       to finish the install but that should be in the instructions if it's the codecs.
[08:01] <intelikey> someone in here may know.
[08:01] <matthew> kk
[08:02] <chrisjs169> any suggestions for the svn issue?
[08:02] <intelikey> maikol you either ?
[08:02] <maikol> intelikey: gnome question or use?
[08:02] <AS6> tom47: i have the alternate file. I have downloaded it earlier. How do i tell WUBI to use my file instead of download?
[08:03] <intelikey> matthew  if no one pipes up with the answer   you can always     dpkg -L <packagename> | grep .sh     and see if it had a script in it  :)
[08:03] <chrisjs169> any suggestions for the svn issue?
[08:03] <intelikey> maikol use gnome.
[08:04] <Tom47> AS6 see the item 2.4 in the url reference .... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide#head-60b926cce3373ab80f68bdc74caa7587d087b269

[08:07] <matthew> k... there
[08:07] <matthew> checking it out now
[08:07] <basswaster> could someone plz help me with install issues?
[08:07] <intelikey> matthew sorry about the misscue,  was w32codecs that held the url
[08:08] <matthew> ithe misscue?
[08:08] <omegacenti> alright winehq is not helpful in any way. I am now experiencing some bad erors with wine and I don't know what to do...
[08:08] <matthew> anyway, it's all good
[08:09] <AS6> tom47: thats what i did, but it doesnt work.
[08:09] <AS6> it still download.
[08:09] <basswaster> could someone plz help me with install issues?
[08:09] <intelikey> matthew  yeah  i said  /msg ubotu codecs  it was   /msg ubotu w32codecs    sorry.
[08:09] <jrsims> QUESTION: what is the best music player?
[08:09] <matthew> oh, got'cha... that's all right.
[08:10] <intelikey> !ask | basswaster
[08:10] <ubotu> basswaster: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:10] <matthew> trying revised now
[08:10] <basswaster> i have, about 3 times now!!!
[08:10] <Tom47> AS6 you have several choices ... let it run, or take the issue up in the wubi forum http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=234
[08:11] <Shankysv87> in beryl emerald themer, i click on a theme i want, but nothing happens, what do i do?
[08:11] <basswaster> can you copy the contents of the install cd to the hdd and install without booting from cd?
[08:11] <matthew> intelikely: says no such file or directory exists... will that be the site of w32codec installation?
[08:11] <basswaster> i mean, i know you can... but I can't get it to work...
[08:12] <Tom47> AS6 if neither of those are attractive you may want to consider a more conventional aproach
[08:12] <logmein> when I do acpi -t it says "No support for device type: thermal" so should I turn off acpid and apmd under services?
[08:12] <intelikey> basswaster you mean while windows is running ?
[08:13] <AS6> Tom47: I think i`ll leave to it to download the file.
[08:13] <intelikey> matthew give me a minute let me find it for you.
[08:13] <matthew> kk... thanks
[08:13] <basswaster> intellikey: no, i have a separate computer running windows and a usb hdd cradle, so getting it onto the hdd is easy. Making it boot to the installer... that's got me beat...
[08:14] <sumigamer> hey guys whenever i try to compile stuff i get the error that the compiler cant create executables. whats this??
[08:14] <Tom47> AS6 yes its prob the best course if yr download speed is adequate
[08:14] <saeed> any way I can play mp3 in uuntu?
[08:14] <|_ocke> gah
[08:14] <|_ocke> still no sound :P
[08:15] <Tom47> AS6 nevertheless pls bookmark the two references for future use
[08:15] <matthew> Oh..... ***Clarification*** the url worked perfectly and I'm taking those steps but just thought I'd clarify that I meant /msg ubotu w32codecs didn't work
[08:15] <orbin> sumigamer: install the build-essential package. another tip is to check the repository before you compile as what you want may be in there
[08:15] <matthew> ...just being sure of clarity
[08:16] <sumigamer> how do i install the build essential package??
[08:16] <intelikey> matthew  feisty ?
[08:16] <basswaster> has anyone installed successfully from the hdd?
[08:16] <AS6> Tom47: Thank you, gentleman your kind assistance. Its greatly appreciated. The links have been bookmarked.
[08:16] <matthew> yeah
[08:16] <matthew> ....often.... j/k
[08:16] <lazaruslupine> sumigamer,  just open a terminal and type "sudo apt-get install build-essential"
[08:17] <lazaruslupine> sudo apt-get update first preferably though
[08:17] <orbin> saeed: i think you get prompted for a codec install if you try an open one in feisty, otherwise, check here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats

[08:22] <basswaster> tom47: I have... i'm pretty sure I've tried everything from in there...
[08:22] <intelikey> :)
[08:22] <ortega10> lazaruslupine: seems like a strange error, i can't find much about in on the web

[08:23] <pukeko> whats the ubuntu version of kudzu called in dapper ?
[08:23] <lazaruslupine> ortega10,  if its a file that is causing problems, why not rename it and try again?
[08:23] <basswaster> anyone else?
[08:23] <ortega10> lazaruslupine: because i don't know if it's a key system file, i don't want to mess with it
[08:24] <lazaruslupine> ortega10, by renaming it it won't be deleted, but yeah I know what you mean
[08:24] <Roots> oi
[08:25] <Roots> alguem ae?
[08:25] <ortega10> lazaruslupine: well thanks anyway
[08:25] <matthew> so.... intelikely.... now do I just follow the instructions of the URL?
[08:25] <intelikey> basswaster no. not me.  but  if you can kickoff any kind of linux kernel  "maybe using loadlin.exe and a ramdisk "floppy" distro,  you might be able to run ubiquity there.... idk.
[08:25] <matthew> continue with that?
[08:25] <Roots> I ! Im from brazil!
[08:25] <lazaruslupine> ortega10, sorry I couldn't help more

[08:26] <intelikey> matthew yep.      or just  sudo dpkg -i <the-file-you-dl'd.deb>
[08:26] <Roots> is chat?
[08:26] <elpargo> anyone here can tell me how I can make ubuntu reinstall config files, it's giving me some bull about not restoring it because it was deleted.
[08:26] <Roots> im redided in 20min of forum of free software!
[08:26] <Roots> resided
[08:26] <matthew> kk... where did it dl to?
[08:26] <basswaster> intelikey: well, i've been able to get that far using FreeDOS and GRUB, and so I can get an installer running... thus far I have both a local network install kernel and a hdd install kernel which i can boot into... but the net one does nothing and the hdd one just refuses to open the ISO!
[08:27] <pukeko> orbin: i need to know what it is called too i want to install discover form install cd but apt says it is referred to by another package ..
[08:28] <Flannel> pukeko: discover is in universe, so it won't be on the CD
[08:28] <pukeko> orbin: as i am having boring nic detection probs with no spares
[08:28] <intelikey> elpargo  sudo apt-get -u --reinstall --fix-missing install packagename.deb
[08:29] <elpargo> intelikey, thank you
[08:29] <KEEV> Can anyone help with with a weather gdesklet
[08:29] <pukeko> FlannelL: cheers ! my nic probs get worse ..
[08:29] <Flannel> pukeko: you'll have to sneakernet it
[08:30] <pukeko> FlannelL: whats that?
[08:30] <Flannel> pukeko: Actually, you want "discover1" which is in main, and might be on the CD.
[08:30] <pukeko> FlannelL: ta brb
[08:31] <Flannel> pukeko: which CD do you have?
[08:31] <elpargo> it's still giving out this stupid message Not replacing deleted config file /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
[08:32] <Flannel> elpargo: remove libapache2-mod-php5 with --purge (or "complete removal" via synaptic) and then reinstall it.
[08:33] <basswaster> anyone else help me?
[08:33] <Quall> Hi
[08:33] <orbin> hmm, in update manager i seem to have a proposed download total of 67MB  for updates, yet if i uncheck all the ones listed, the value only drops to 46MB.
[08:33] <Quall> I need some help obtaining a driver and installing a driver for a PCI K56flex
[08:33] <elpargo> Flannel, i ran  sudo apt-get -u --reinstall --fix-missing install libapache2-mod-php5
[08:35] <omegacenti> bash: /dev/dsp: Device or resource busy. How do I find out whats currently using it?
[08:35] <Flannel> elpargo: sudo apt-get remove --purge libapache2-mod-php5 && sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5
[08:35] <pukeko> FlannelL: found discover1 ... does it run on bootup ? i need to detect missing or new nics then want to be prompted to config them ..
[08:35] <crimsun> omegacenti: lsof /dev/dsp*
[08:36] <zoidberg> hey guys how can you make a perl script run at login?
[08:36] <RecyclerX> hi there
[08:36] <zoidberg> ?
[08:36] <zoidberg> can anyone help me?
[08:36] <Flannel> pukeko: I have no idea how it works, you might try `man discover` or discover1.  Doesn't look like it starts on boot.
[08:37] <elpargo> Flannel, thanks I'll write that down.
[08:37] <RecyclerX> im currently setting up my system to run offline applications
[08:37] <RecyclerX> however
[08:37] <zoidberg> can anyone help me please....i'm trying to run a script on login...how do i do it?
[08:37] <Flannel> !startup | zoidberg
[08:37] <ubotu> zoidberg: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot
[08:38] <RecyclerX> my system halts whenever i disconnect the network card at boot
[08:38] <RecyclerX> it actually gives me an error saying no network found
[08:39] <RecyclerX> but it wont skip the network check and continue into the system
[08:39] <RecyclerX> does anybody here know what the problem is?
[08:39] <Gekkko> can someone type "sh --version" in a console for me please?
[08:39] <pukeko> zoidberg: .bashrc perhaps ?
[08:40] <jscinoz> hey guys i think i have a problem with OSS or ALSA, whenever i start a program from the menu it has no sound, but if i start it from a terminal, with no extra parameters it works fine, any ideas why this happens and how to fix it?
[08:40] <RecyclerX> is it possible to disable the network check at boot?
[08:40] <bex> does ubuntu 7.04 have a graphical interface for ndiswrapper ?
[08:40] <bex> (or does the new ndiswrapper itself have it maybe?)
[08:40] <Gekkko> can someone type "sh --version" in a console for me please?
[08:41] <Flannel> Gekkko: that won't really work, as we're potentially all on different ubuntu versions.  What info are you looking for?
[08:41] <Gekkko> i dont care what version of Ubuntu you're on
[08:41] <Gekkko> lol
[08:41] <Gekkko> as long as you're on an ubuntu
[08:41] <Gekkko> i just wanna know the output
[08:41] <hylje> sh: Illegal option --
[08:41] <Gekkko> i have my reasons, but I can't get into my Ubuntu right now to find out >_>
[08:42] <gordboy> Gekkko, sh doesn't take long options. but bash does. bash --version
[08:42] <tritium> !enter > Gekkko (see the private message from ubotu)
[08:42] <RecyclerX> can someone tell me how to skip the ethernet check at boot?
[08:42] <jmg> hi all
[08:42] <Gekkko> gordboy: it says Ubuntu's sh is dash, not bash
[08:42] <logan> When I try to open a RAR with Archive Manager it says Archive type not supported. What should I use for RAR files?
[08:42] <Gekkko> I think i just proved that theory
[08:42] <Gekkko> it = wikipedia.
[08:43] <jmg> latest feisty updates (kernel?) broke my box, cant login through x or boot single user mode. booting old kernel - can't start x.
[08:43] <tintin> can any one tell me how to configure N6681 to work with gnokii
[08:43] <Flannel> Gekkko: no, that's simply not correct.
[08:43] <Gekkko> really?
[08:43] <Frogzoo_> Gekkko: is /usr mounted? I think the initrd image uses dash for sh, once the machine's up, it should be bash
[08:44] <Flannel> Gekkko: Ubuntu 6.10 and later use dash as the default script handler, but "sh" isn't dash.  Its just a symlink to any scripter.
[08:44] <Gekkko> dash is a modern replacement for ash in the Debian project, and (as of the 6.10 release) is the default /bin/sh in Ubuntu. However, the transition in Ubuntu to making dash /bin/sh has broken numerous shell scripts that relied upon bash-specific functionality, also known as bashisms.
[08:44] <bobsumone_>  Gekkko: I believe he is correct
[08:44] <gordboy> ls -l /bin/sh
[08:44] <jmg> How do I get the uuids of my disks?
[08:44] <Frogzoo_> Gekkko: oh no: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 2006-12-10 14:57 /bin/sh -> dash
[08:44] <SeveredCross> /dev/disk?
[08:44] <jscinoz> hey guys i think i have a problem with OSS or ALSA, whenever i start a program from the menu it has no sound, but if i start it from a terminal, with no extra parameters it works fine, any ideas why this happens and how to fix it?
[08:44] <Gekkko> lol
[08:44] <SeveredCross> by id or something
[08:44] <Gekkko> I was right Frogzoo_?
[08:44] <jmg> SeveredCross: that doesnt tell me which is which
[08:44] <crimsun> jmg: /sbin/vol_id -u partition.
[08:45] <Flannel> Gekkko: Right.  Those scripts WERENT shell scripts, they were bash scripts.  It's not Ubuntu breaking those scripts, it's the writers of those scripts being stupid and not reporting their requirements properly. (shebang should point to bash not sh)
[08:45] <Gekkko> yeh
[08:45] <SeveredCross> That you're right.
[08:45] <crimsun> jscinoz: more precisely, please.
[08:45] <Frogzoo_> Gekkko: seems so
[08:45] <SeveredCross> crimsun's solution is correct. :)
[08:45] <Gekkko> it should say #!/bin/bash not /bin/sh
[08:45] <bobsumone_>  what was this I heard about running stuff out of a windows partition on ubuntu?
[08:45] <Gekkko> i always do bash if its a bash script
[08:45] <SeveredCross> Wait, the default shell is dash?
[08:45] <SeveredCross> Really?
[08:45] <bobsumone_>  is that saying I can "launch" a windows program somehow?
[08:45] <SeveredCross> Oh, it is.
[08:45] <bex> does ubuntu 7.04 have a graphical interface for ndiswrapper ?
[08:45] <Flannel> SeveredCross: no.  The default shell is bash.  The default script handler is dash
[08:45] <SeveredCross> I always just call bash out of habit anyway.
[08:46] <jmg> crimsun: that gives me "Error open partition" <sic>
[08:46] <SeveredCross> Right, that's what I meant.
[08:46] <jscinoz> Alright, Basically when i start ANY program from the applications menu it has no sound, if i run the same program but from a terminal it works perfectly, this isn't specific to a single program.
[08:46] <jammer_> !wine | bobsumone_
[08:46] <ubotu> bobsumone_: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[08:46] <crimsun> jmg: prepend sudo.
[08:46] <bobsumone_>  jammer_: oh its just wine?
[08:46] <bobsumone_>  i know about that
[08:47] <jmg> crimsun: done, found issue, more sdx -> hdx badness
[08:47] <crimsun> jscinoz: I need specific examples with specific syntax.
[08:47] <bobsumone_>  see because I have this program from stardock.com that lets me run 2 computers "as one"
[08:47] <Gekkko> what's a good replacement for xterm that supports transparency?
[08:47] <crimsun> rxvt-unicode.
[08:47] <Gekkko> it's basically the same thing >_>
[08:47] <Gekkko> oh shit
[08:48] <Gekkko> xterm IS rxvt on this
[08:48] <bobsumone_>  i can mouse over to screens on other computers, ect, and it lets me use 1 keyboard and mouse, and I would like this functionallity for linux, without the use of a KVM
[08:48] <jscinoz> alright, one Eg, songbird (music player) menu launcher is "/opt/Songbird/Songbird" program opens, gives no errors but no sound, exact same command "/opt/Songbird/Songbird" in terminal program works with sound (no output given in terminal)
[08:49] <bobsumone_>  anyone have any ideas?
[08:49] <bobsumone_>  because I am so sick of windows, but being able to run 2 machines and 4 screens from one mouse and keyboard set is great
[08:49] <crimsun> jscinoz: if both are invoked with identical command syntax, then it's unrelated to gnome-menu.  Are you positive your audio hardware even supports pcm muxing?
[08:50] <jscinoz> yes it does, and i didnt say it was related to the menu i said i might have an alsa/oss problem
[08:50] <jscinoz> but the strange thing is it works from terminal and doesnt work from menu.
[08:50] <crimsun> jscinoz: alsa/oss has nothing to do with the menu.  What make & model is the audio hardware?
[08:50] <deep`> Anyone know the command to manage upstart processes?
[08:50] <RecyclerX> CAn someone please tell me how to skip the ethernet card check at boot up process?
[08:50] <chowmeined> I dont understand, I have a mount in nfs4.. when i create something as user A it says it is owned by user B.. but I can still do anything I want with user B's stuff
[08:50] <jscinoz> Unknown, its a motherboard onboard on a toshiba m30 laptop
[08:51] <leagris> bobsumone_, there is a tool for what you want, will have to search for the name because I don't recall it now.
[08:51] <crimsun> jscinoz: I'm pretty darned sure that audio hardware does _not_ support pcm muxing.
[08:51] <jammer_> bobsumone_, check out http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/
[08:51] <crimsun> jscinoz: lspci -v|grep -i audio, please.
[08:51] <gordboy> crimsun, jscinoz has just explained his problem. and you ignored what he said and decided to answer another question. marks out of 10 - 0
[08:51] <czaveri> I have an Intel(r) 82945GM Chipset Family Graphics Chip Accelerated VGA BIOS but can't get it to display at 1280x800 on Ubuntu 6.06 LTS. I have looked at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto but none of the fixes work for me
[08:51] <czaveri> It works on Windows and on Fedora Core and CentOS but not on Ubuntu
[08:52] <Ritual> Hello im very new to Ubuntu and Linux.. I used to use progams called Widgets on win, does Ubuntu have anything simular I can customize my desktop with?
[08:52] <jscinoz> crimsun "00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 03)"
[08:52] <czaveri> any idea how I can fix this?
[08:52] <jmg> czaveri: try #xorg
[08:52] <czaveri> jmg, thanks!
[08:52] <crimsun> jscinoz: no, it does _not_ support pcm muxing.  I helped write that driver.  Anyhow, let's look at straces from both program invocations, shall we?
[08:52] <chowmeined> any ideas?
[08:52] <jscinoz> all right, how do i do that
[08:52] <leagris> Ritual, don't know about what your widget software do. There are several add ons for gnome. You may have a look at gdesklets.
[08:53] <crimsun> gordboy: I believe you do not understand my diagnostic approach, but I don't expect you to.
[08:53] <Ritual> leagris cool, i'll have a look.
[08:53] <crimsun> jscinoz: first, I want you to invoke songbird from a Terminal, and while it's running _with no other audio or video app running_, pastebin me the output from `lsof /dev/dsp* /dev/audio* /dev/mixer* /dev/snd/*`
[08:54] <gordboy> crimsun, what ? the problem lies in the environment of the shell vs the menu. simple. and don't pretend you wrote any drivers. it is a complete and utter lie
[08:54] <jscinoz> ok just a sec
[08:54] <jmg> gordboy: er
[08:54] <standfire> could someone walk me through set up for wine?
[08:54] <jmg> gordboy: perhaps you should check to see who it is you are adressing with such contempt
[08:54] <gordboy>  *!*@pdpc/supporter/silver/crimsun added to ignore list.
[08:54] <jmg> gordboy: crimsun is an alsa developer
[08:55] <gordboy> that wonderful piece of coding : alsa
[08:55] <gordboy> hahahaha
[08:55] <czaveri> jmg, I think this is more of an Ubuntu question because I can get it to work in other distributions of Linux
[08:56] <gordboy>  *!*@shinobi.thoughtcrime.org.nz added to ignore list.
[08:56] <chowmeined> this doesnt make any sense
[08:56] <leagris> standfire, System/Preferences/Wine Configuration
[08:56] <chowmeined> nfs is useless
[08:56] <czaveri> I can also see lines like the following in xorg.conf automatically set by Ubuntu:
[08:56] <czaveri>         SubSection "Display"
[08:56] <czaveri>                 Depth           24
[08:56] <czaveri>                 Modes           "1280x800"
[08:56] <czaveri>         EndSubSection
[08:56] <jscinoz> crimsun, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24960/
[08:56] <jmg> czaveri: it could be an xorg version issue
[08:56] <jmg> czaveri: and if you put the resolution you want there alongside 1280x800
[08:56] <czaveri> Ok
[08:56] <jmg> what happens?
[08:56] <omegacenti> Can I run xfce with my current setup of ubuntu 7.04? do I have to change much or change nothing at all?
[08:57] <crimsun> jscinoz: ok, please wait a sec while it loads ever so slowly
[08:57] <jscinoz> alright, thanks for the help so far :)
[08:57] <standfire> leagris, i am able to open winecfg, i just needed help setting it up
[08:57] <czaveri> I tried installing Ubuntu Feisty for this reason but the installer stops at brltty :-(
[08:57] <crimsun> jscinoz: ok, that output shows that no program is accessing the sound device.  Can you use Songbird to play something?
[08:57] <leagris> standfire, ok, let us know
[08:58] <Madpilot> gordboy, so, if you're not will to follow advice given, why on earth are you bothering in the first place?
[08:58] <jscinoz> yeah just a sec
[08:58] <leagris> standfire, ok for a walkthrough. May be we can open a dialog window to avoid cluttering that public room
[08:59] <jscinoz> crimsun, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24961/
[08:59] <leagris> chowmeined, NFSv4 should not mix users. You will have to check how it was set tup and check you enabled kherberos identification properly. That's the most significant enhancment on NFSv4 over v3.
[09:00] <gordboy> Madpilot, i'm sorry, but i didn't ask for advice. perhaps you have your lines crossed or something. i came here to give help to other users
[09:00] <crimsun> jscinoz: ok, that looks good.  Do either /etc/asound.conf or ~/.asoundrc* exist?
[09:00] <standfire> leagris, alright i opened one
[09:00] <crimsun> jscinoz: you can check with: ls /etc/asound.conf ~/.asoundrc*
[09:01] <jscinoz> neither
[09:01] <Louie24707> A music messaging session has been requested. Please click the MM icon to accept.
[09:01] <chowmeined> leagris: I dont have kerberos yet, i am using ip based access control (I use enforced ipsec so I dont worry as much about it being forged).. on feisty when i mount it says idmapd isnt running.. but it still maps names to ids.. just the wrong names to the wrong IDs
[09:01] <crimsun> jscinoz: excellent.  Now, can you close/quit the current instance(s) of Songbird, then invoke Songbird from the menu?
[09:01] <unikon> hey have any of you ever had a problem with trying to log in to Xubuntu where you put in the user id and password yet it takes you back to the login screen
[09:02] <crimsun> jscinoz: I'll need you to use that instance to play some music, then while the music appears to be inaudible, please re-execute the above lsof command, and pastebin its output
[09:02] <jscinoz> alright just a sec
[09:02] <gordboy> Madpilot, the idea that any spotty noob in here *could* give me advice is close to lunacy. i have been programming for 30 years. think about it
[09:03] <kslc> crimsun: hm if you get a chance when you're done helping jscinoz I'd appreciate if you could help me with a problem I'm having as well (my card is recognizes and I don't get any errors when I play an audio file but sound comes out of my speakers). This is a bug report I submitted in launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/119210
[09:03] <omegacenti> Can I run xfce with my current setup of ubuntu 7.04? do I have to change much or change nothing at all?
[09:03] <kslc> s/recognizes/recognized
[09:03] <lwizardl> how do i make it so after so many mins of idle it needs a password to reuse pc
[09:03] <kslc> and that was meant to say that NO sound comes out of my speakers.
[09:04] <Madpilot> gordboy, I don't know you from anyone; the person you're being rude about is well-known in this channel as the go-to person for odd sound problems. Grow up, OK?
[09:04] <leagris> chowmeined, never tried this. Does it map MAC addresses or IP to users?
[09:04] <r_a_f> unikon: some start script is broken i think
[09:04] <orbin> lwizardl: you could use the screensaver's lock feature
[09:05] <jscinoz> crimsun, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24962/ with songbird started from menu and playing music (inaudible)
[09:05] <chowmeined> leagris: on each side it turns the UID and GID into a name.. which is translated back on the server.. (not security feature.. but it means UIDs and GIDs can be different across hosts)
[09:05] <lwizardl> orbin, but that doesn't ask for password
[09:05] <crimsun> kslc: please attach the output from http://www.linux-sound.info/alsa/scripts/alsa-info.sh to that bug report
[09:05] <r_a_f> omegacenti:  you need to install it but its a lot of size
[09:05] <gordboy> Madpilot, then this channel has quite a lot to learn. jscinoz still hasn't got his problem fixed. and he never will, if he listens to the *rubbish* being offered as advice
[09:06] <r_a_f> omegacenti: but xfce is great
[09:06] <leagris> chowmeined, that's the problem here. Relying on UID GID pair is bad because different hosts may have different ones.
[09:06] <orbin> lwizardl: i'm pretty sure it does
[09:06] <omegacenti> Wow, just reading stuff from gordboy makes me want to put him on ignore.
[09:06] <crimsun> it's ok, let him be a prima donna.
[09:06] <omegacenti> r_a_f: hmm, will it screw things up if I just apt-get it?
[09:07] <RoAkSoAx> gordboy just for you to know, this channel is mantained by volunteers not by people payed to do customer service, ok? so if someone helps you is because he wants to, not because he has to
[09:07] <lwizardl> ok thanks
[09:07] <chowmeined> leagris: thats what idmapd deals with.. it turns the local UID GID into a global user@fqdn group@fqdn pair.. which is translated back into the local UID/GID on the server
[09:07] <crimsun> any programmer worth his salt knows that he knows only a little.
[09:07] <r_a_f> omegacenti:   sudo aptitude install xubuntu-desktop
[09:07] <r_a_f> and you have it
[09:07] <omegacenti> r_a_f: I am afraid. I use gdm though.. will it overwrite what boots up?
[09:07] <kslc> hm should I run that as root?
[09:07] <omegacenti> crimsun: I whole heartedly agree.
[09:07] <r_a_f> gdm is ok with xfce
[09:07] <r_a_f> it wlii works fine
[09:08] <omegacenti> r_a_f: I REALLY hope you are right. However I want to get an opinion from at least one more user of ubuntu before I do the command.
[09:08] <crimsun> jscinoz: there are no attempts to access the audio device.  Is the music appearing to play but is simply inaudible at this point?
[09:08] <jscinoz> yes
[09:08] <jscinoz> the slider showing where it is in the song is moving along
[09:08] <leagris> chowmeined, you told idmap was not running. Did you check if it is not needed to the mapping ?
[09:09] <r_a_f> omegacenti: just choose session in GDM (GNOME or XFCE or whaever you install gtk+)
[09:09] <omegacenti> r_a_f: oh! so it works with gdm
[09:09] <chowmeined> leagris: it _is_ running.. apparently its a bug in mount.. it was listed on ubuntu bugs
[09:09] <omegacenti> r_a_f: thats what I wa worried about
[09:09] <omegacenti> r_a_f: thanks :)
[09:09] <RoAkSoAx> omegacenti: doing sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop will still xfce but you will also be able to use gnome if you want to and wont overwrite gdm config.
[09:09] <r_a_f> omegacenti: np sure - ask toher of course ;)
[09:09] <chowmeined> leagris: ill try some other things
[09:10] <crimsun> jscinoz: what is the precise command that's given in the launcher item for Songbird?
[09:10] <michelson> Hey folks, how bad is it if my ip_conntrack table fills up to the max and I start dropping packets?   this is on my webserver...
[09:10] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: which would be default after I do install it?
[09:10] <jscinoz> crimsun, /opt/Songbird/Songbird
[09:10] <omegacenti> r_a_f: thankyou very much though :)
[09:10] <michelson> my default timeout is 5 days :(
[09:10] <michelson> for tcp connections
[09:10] <r_a_f> omegacenti: you welcome ;)
[09:10] <omegacenti> This is seriously one of the nicest channels I have come across besides irc.diabloclone.org #useast-dclone
[09:10] <RoAkSoAx> omegacenti that you will have to configure
[09:11] <leagris> chowmeined, k I see. I played with NFSv4 some time ago between a mandriva box as a server and unbuntu dapper as client. Gave up after bugs on the ubuntu side and used kherberos for authentification though.
[09:11] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: hmm. Then I will apt-get it after I finish downloading the xubuntu live CD
[09:11] <michelson> or maybe it's a stupid question?  not sure...
[09:11] <crimsun> jscinoz: ok, so now we need to check if that file acts differently in invocation.  Is it a shell script?  You can check with `file /opt/Songbird/Songbird`
[09:11] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: is the ONLY difference between xubuntu and ubuntu is one uses gnome one uses xfce?
[09:11] <RoAkSoAx> omegacenti yes
[09:12] <RoAkSoAx> omegacenti xfce is gnome based
[09:12] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: then there is no point for downloading it unless I want to make a cd of it...
[09:12] <leagris> chowmeined, thought kherberos was needed to pair user@host identity/access rights
[09:12] <jscinoz> crimsun, it isnt
[09:12] <kraypius> need help. im trying to build a kernel module and I get: Kernel Makefile not found at '/lib/modules/2.6.17-11-generic/source/
[09:12] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: I don't understand "based" sorry.
[09:12] <RoAkSoAx> omegacenti: xfce was based on gnome
[09:12] <crimsun> jscinoz: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386,... ?
[09:13] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: is it a completely different breed now?
[09:13] <jscinoz> yes
[09:13] <chowmeined> leagris: it is.. with idmapd it just makes aliases to allow stations with different UIDs and GIDs to work together.. if somebody has root they can spoof their mapping so it isnt secure
[09:13] <crimsun> jscinoz: and are you using 0.2.5?  If so, I'll attempt to reproduce your symptoms.
[09:13] <RoAkSoAx> omegacenti guess so
[09:14] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: thanks ^_^
[09:14] <jscinoz> yes v0.2.4
[09:14] <jscinoz> .5*
[09:14] <RoAkSoAx> omegacenti you welcom
[09:14] <leagris> chowmeined, indeed, thus is the intend on kherberos preventing unauthenticated users from bypassing the maping
[09:15] <omegacenti> Ubuntu is just so awesome....
[09:15] <michelson> anyone familiar at all with netfilter ip_conntrack stuff?
[09:15] <Pirate_Hunter> Easy question I've got this message popup (You don't have the right permissions to extract archives in the folder "/usr/share/amsn/skins/default" how do I gain permission to install skins into this folder
[09:15] <omegacenti> Anything better than XMMS?
[09:15] <Kjellviz> Exaile
[09:15] <Kjellviz> omegacenti: Exaile is.
[09:15] <RoAkSoAx> Pirate_Hunter use sudo in a terminal
[09:15] <omegacenti> in XMMS I can't use "global hotkeys" or at least I can't find them
[09:16] <omegacenti> Kjellviz: exaile eh?
[09:16] <eXSiR> also banshee is better than xmms...
[09:16] <omegacenti> eXSiR: banshee.
[09:16] <crimsun> jscinoz: (downloading and installing)
[09:16] <kslc> crimsun: I uploaded the output of the script to to the bug report.
[09:16] <Kjellviz> omegacenti: yeh, it supported my mediakeys out of the box
[09:16] <jscinoz> crimsun, ok i'll just be playing legends while i wait ;P
[09:16] <omegacenti> Im going to goole fight the two of them then :)
[09:16] <bullgard4> Synaptic does not list a DEB program package 'bin2iso'. Where to obtain the program 'bin2iso'?
 so I would use sudo intalls <folder name> sorry if it sound like the windows command still getting used to ubuntu
[09:17] <jscinoz> great.. it broke :P
[09:17] <Kjellviz> what device is fd0 ?
[09:17] <jscinoz> floppy disk zero
[09:17] <defrysk> bullgard4, with cue bin files you can also use cdrdao write blah.cue
[09:18] <RoAkSoAx> Pirate_Hunter yes, to gain root permission you will have to use sudo before every command, ex. sudo apt-get update
[09:18] <omegacenti> bullgard4: do you have all the weird repositories enabled?
[09:18] <kraypius> gah what am i doing wrong
[09:18] <Kjellviz> jscinoz: ok, so when ubuntu livecd gives me an buffer i/o error on fd0 i can ignore it ? (i dont have a floppy drive)
[09:18] <omegacenti> kraypius: You didn't drink that thing when you should have.
 so I guessed the commands write than, that would allow me to install to that directory
[09:18] <bullgard4> omegacenti: No, I am trying to confine the set of repositories.
[09:18] <kraypius> i cant get this kernel patch to compile
[09:18] <defrysk> bullgard4, otherwise try bchunk
[09:19] <kraypius> Kernel Makefile not found at '/lib/modules/2.6.17-11-generic/source/'
[09:19] <jscinoz> Kjellviz, i'd assume so
[09:19] <omegacenti> bullgard4: Well I just tried all repositories and I still couldn't find it. Im sorry :(
[09:19] <Polygon89> Hello, i am trying to get a wireless bridge to work (a netger ME101 specifically). My network adapter works fine, but i am confused on how to set it up to connect to the internet. Do i have to manually enter the routers IP address and WEP key and all that, or do i treat it like a ethernet connection and leave everying as automatic?
[09:19] <RoAkSoAx> Pirate_Hunter yes, do it like you would if you where root, but use sudo before every command
[09:20] <Kjellviz> jscinoz: ok thanks
[09:20] <jscinoz> crimsun. i don't know what i did but it works now O_o
[09:20] <omegacenti> Polygon89: even though it might be a little off topic I might be able to help.
[09:20] <bullgard4> defrysk: I do not understand your advise: "with cue bin files you can also use cdrdao write blah.cue" as I am a newcomer to Linux audio. Please say it in simpler terms.
[09:20] <sn00p> Does anybody know why my ubuntu 7.04 amd 64bit hangs on the splash screen when I boot?
[09:20] <omegacenti> Polygon89: actually, disregard that, I know nothing about "bridges"
[09:20] <jscinoz> crimsun, but programs that start  from a shell script still have no sound
[09:20] <Polygon89> omegacenti, any help is apprechiated
[09:21] <omegacenti> !bridge
[09:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bridge - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:21] <defrysk> bullgard4, if you have a bin file that include a cue file you can use the terminal to write the cue - bin file with the command: cdrdao write foo.cue
[09:21] <eXSiR> is there any repo for beagle 2.17? i dont wanna compile it myself :)
[09:21] <bullgard4> omegacenti: Thank you very much. So will refrain from it.
[09:21] <Pirate_Hunter> RoAkSoAx> kk i dont know the exact command to use but I'll try: sudo install catalunyia <folder directory>
[09:21] <omegacenti> bullgard4: I hope I helped.
[09:21] <defrysk> bullgard4, if that is a problem, sudo apt-get install bchunk
[09:22] <bullgard4> omegacenti: Yes you did. Thank you.
[09:22] <RoAkSoAx> Polygon89 you want to use your wireless card to connect to a WiFi Spot?
[09:22] <crimsun> jscinoz: I think you mean "programs invoked from the menu"?
[09:22] <defrysk> !info bchunk
[09:22] <ubotu> bchunk: CD image format conversion from bin/cue to iso/cdr. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.2.0-4 (feisty), package size 13 kB, installed size 68 kB
[09:22] <RoAkSoAx> Pirate_Hunter what do you want to install?
[09:22] <bullgard4> defrysk: I will do some research in order to understand your message. Thank you.
[09:22] <jscinoz> crimsun no, for example i have Songbird and Legends in the menu, songbird goes straight to the executable, Legends goes to a short shell script
 a skin for amsn into that directory
[09:23] <Polygon89> RoAkSoAx, no, dont even get me started on that, lol. Bad wireless drivers. ANYWAY, what im wanting to do is get a wireless bridge setup. This is essentially a little box that when i plug in a ethernet cable to (the other end goes into the network adapter of my computer) then its supposed to act like a wiress card, taking the ethernet connection and transmitting it wirelessly
[09:23] <jscinoz> crimsun, i'm getting the same problem as before, but now it only applies to programs that are started from a script (mainly games)
[09:23] <Polygon89> RoAkSoAx, problem is i cannot figure out how to set it up.
[09:24] <eXSiR> guys, do know any beagle 2.17 repos?
[09:24] <crimsun> jscinoz: ok, do you know offhand if Legends uses the OSS API (/dev/dsp*, /dev/mixer*, /dev/audio*)?
[09:24] <eXSiR> you*
[09:25] <RoAkSoAx> Pirate_Hunter which skin
[09:25] <omegacenti> Polygon89: ah, its bridges the connection from your wireless router to your wireless bridge which then gives you your connection via ethernet. interesting
[09:25] <kane77> I installed BOINC, but I cannot get work from any project. It keeps saying platform not found
[09:25] <Kjellviz> anyone that can tell me how to install python-gpod?
[09:25] <Polygon89> Kane77, did you install it from synaptic?
[09:25] <omegacenti> Polygon89: it would sound to me like maybe reading the manual might help and if failing that you might need to setup internal options inside the wireless bridge to make sure its getting a signal from the correct wireless router.
[09:25] <kane77> Polygon89, yep
 I tried this as the command sudo install <CaluniaSkin-1.0.zip> /usr/share/amsn/skins/default
[09:26] <Polygon89> Kane77, did you give the right URL for your project?
[09:26] <eXSiR> Kjellviz: try sudo apt-get install python-gpod ?
[09:26] <jscinoz> crimsun, not sure, would the libs in the program dir give me a hint? i have libogg libopenal libsdl libvorbis
[09:26] <Kjellviz> eXSiR: thanks ill try that (im not to familiar with the non-graphical way of installing)
[09:27] <eXSiR> Kjellviz: you can try synaptic, just search for package
[09:27] <Kjellviz> eXSiR: i tried, didnt find it
[09:27] <Polygon89> omegacenti, the problem is that the box is tiny, there is only spaces for a ethernet cable and a AC adapter, there is no way to change anything inside of it i dont think
[09:27] <crimsun> jscinoz: ah, so it's SDL-based.
[09:27] <Kjellviz> but apt-get is running nicely now
[09:27] <jscinoz> crimsun, which means it uses neither ALSA or OSS?
[09:27] <eXSiR> Kjellviz: i am not sure but you may alse activate universe and multiverse repos
[09:27] <omegacenti> Polygon89: it has to in order fo you to tell it which wireless router to speak to, no matter how tiny it is
[09:28] <crimsun> jscinoz: by default SDL is configured to use ALSA directly.
[09:28] <eXSiR> also*
[09:28] <omegacenti> Polygon89: try this: hmm.. this isn't windows... doh I just lost everyone of my possible solution trees right there.
[09:28] <crimsun> jscinoz: (via the libsdl1.2debian-alsa package)
[09:28] <Polygon89> omegacenti, well i pulled this thing from my ps2, which we used to use it to have the ps2 connect to our network.
[09:28] <jscinoz> crimsun, and would this explain why sound works from terminal but not from menu?
[09:28] <neuma> I've just installed the kernel update (to 2.6.20-16) and now the fsck part of my boot stops when it can't find the usb disk mentioned in my fstab
[09:28] <simplylezz> hi. i wonder... is it possible to do a complete and clean uninstall of openoffice.org from ubuntu feisty fawn?
[09:28] <kane77> Polygon89, I have added my projects (the ones I've been participating) and it stayed at communication deferred to 24hrs when I request update it gives me: "Platform not found" and from other "platform x86_64 pc-linux-gnu" not found
[09:28] <Polygon89> omegacenti, i think i have to tell it the router numbers and all that, but that doesnt seem to be working
[09:28] <omegacenti> Polygon89: do oyu remember if it automatically found the wireless router?
[09:28] <RoAkSoAx> Polygon89 sorry i dont know how to do that...but this might help you https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetConnectionSharing
[09:29] <minh_c9> c
[09:29] <minh_c9> ??????????
[09:29] <Polygon89> kane77, that means BOINC hasnt been able to download the files needed to run your project
[09:29] <crimsun> jscinoz: not likely, but we need to continue debugging.  Are you invoking this game with Songbird closed or still running?
[09:29] <omegacenti> Polygon89: I think you need to have something like an essid in order for the bridge to know what the heck it is looking for, an IP address wont help. at least I THINK
[09:29] <Kjellviz> on a 20gb hdd install, 2gb for swap and the rest ext3, does that sound bout ok ?
[09:29] <jscinoz> Closed now
[09:29] <simplylezz> hi. i wonder... is it possible to do a complete and clean uninstall of openoffice.org from ubuntu feisty fawn?
[09:29] <jscinoz> and when i invoked it
[09:29] <Polygon89> kane77, which i think is supposed to happen automatically once you add a project. Can you ensure that its able to connect to the internet
[09:29] <minh_c9> lolz
[09:30] <omegacenti> Polygon89: also, I think the bridge with the ps2 found some random wireless router and leeched its connection from it if you didnt set it up.
[09:30] <Polygon89> omegacenti, yeah with my ps2 we told it the router IP, gateway and stuff and it worked
[09:30] <bestskenboy> no noi gi vay pa kon
[09:30] <crimsun> jscinoz: ok, does Legends run in a window?
[09:30] <jscinoz> crimsun, it may also be worth mentioning, that another program that this effects, the game PlaneShift, doesnt use SDL but has the same problem, its also started from a script

[09:39] <sx66> how do you bring back up the WIFI notification back? I deleted it accidentally.
[09:39] <omegacenti> orbin: it wont hurt my ubuntu installation will it?
[09:39] <SlimG> What's the command for making grub rebuild /boot/grub/menu.lst like it does on installing Ubuntu (when it adds all the OS'es it can detect on other disks)
[09:40] <orbin> omegacenti: unlikely.  it will grab all the relevant packages, then add an xfce entry in the sessions menu at login
[09:41] <omegacenti> orbin: thanks ^_^

[09:41] <crimsun> jscinoz: let's try this: create a menu launcher that runs the following command: `aplay /usr/share/sounds/startup.wav`

[09:42] <sx66> n00b
[09:42] <sx66> how do you bring back up the WIFI notification back? I deleted it accidentally.
[09:42] <omegacenti> n00b is rude..
[09:42] <omegacenti> newb is not
[09:42] <sx66> k
[09:42] <defrysk> omegacenti, caps is also rude
[09:42] <simplylezz> well, there are about a million packages in synaptic that come up when you search for openoffice... will all the relevant ones ger removed when i uninstall openoffice?
[09:43] <omegacenti> yes but he might have had caps lock accident.
[09:43] <unikon> r_a_f how would i fix or rewrite the startup script and how do i find out if that is even the problem
[09:43] <simplylezz> sorry about the CAPS
[09:43] <defrysk> omegacenti, sx66 maybe did a typo
[09:43] <orbin> sx66: make sure the notification area applet is on a panel
[09:43] <defrysk> ;p
[09:43] <omegacenti> defrysk: LOL
[09:43] <simplylezz> sx66: when i go to add/remove it tells me that i need to use synaptic
[09:43] <jscinoz> simplylezz, go to synaptic select all openoffice packages and right click, completely remove
[09:44] <simplylezz> ok, thanks, let me try that... i hope it will not screw up ubuntu for me
[09:44] <sx66> orbin, it only shows the battery, I had deleted the wifi - right click remove thinking it was anther Icon.
[09:44] <bullgard4> What preferred program recommends Ubuntu to play Audio-CDs?
[09:44] <jscinoz> PROBREM solved!
[09:44] <omegacenti> so if I install xubuntu-desktop from ubuntu what will have changed? GRUB? ubuntu? do I now have Xubuntu installed?

[09:45] <foxiness> i can not found nvu on ubuntu repos why? and is there something similar? "WYSIWYG HTML editor"
[09:45] <crimsun> jscinoz: I'm awaiting feedback regarding the custom application launcher
[09:45] <jscinoz> crimsun ok thanks.
[09:45] <SlimG> simplylezz: you can also try this in a console, if you're lucky it might remove all OOo packages: sudo aptitude remove openoffice.org-core
[09:45] <orbin> sx66: we're talking about the 4 bars thing right?
[09:46] <crimsun> jscinoz: meaning, let me know the results of that custom application launcher test I asked that you do

[09:48] <jscinoz> crimsun, application
[09:48] <crimsun> jscinoz: ok.  Check your Songbird launcher.  Which Type is it?
[09:48] <c_> Any recomendations on an IDE for bash?
[09:49] <jscinoz> crimsun, Application
[09:49] <barava> jscinoz: U can help me?
[09:49] <crimsun> jscinoz: so, let's try changing the Type of your Songbird launcher to "Application in Terminal"
[09:49] <jscinoz> barava, with what?
[09:49] <barava> Need help - where I can OFF KDE-layout? I want switch languages from ...xorg.xonf
[09:50] <orbin> sx66: ok, the notification area applet is up.  are you sure nm-applet is running?
[09:50] <jscinoz> crimsun, done and now it flashes on screen for a second then closes..
[09:50] <sx66> what is nm-applet? orbin
[09:50] <omegacenti> so if I install xubuntu-desktop from ubuntu what will have changed? GRUB? ubuntu? do I now have Xubuntu installed?
[09:51] <crimsun> jscinoz: ok, now with Songbird closed, what happens when you invoke the launcher?
[09:51] <c_> Every time I go to type in a new file in Griffion it just closes on me. Any one know a fix for this bug?
[09:51] <orbin> sx66: the network manager applet (the 4 bars thing)
[09:51] <jscinoz> crimsun, with type as application it opens but with now sound, with type as application in terminal a terminal window flashes for a second then closes, sonbird doesnt open
[09:51] <omegacenti> can I make another graphical tty? like can I have a gnome session running on tty7 and then xubuntu-desktop running on tty6?
[09:51] <defrysk> omegacenti, you simply have more packages installed when you reboot you'll se a xubuntu splash , and in gdm you can now also opt for xfce4
[09:52] <sx66> orbin, yes the 4 bars thing is not there, how do you enable it.
[09:52] <omegacenti> defrysk: wait.. do you mean grub has been changed?
[09:52] <defrysk> omegacenti, otherwise nothing has changed
[09:52] <defrysk> omegacenti, not grub
[09:52] <defrysk> the loooks have changed
[09:52] <omegacenti> defrysk: where will I see the xubuntu splash?
[09:52] <crimsun> jscinoz: ok, let's see if I can reproduce those symptoms
[09:52] <c_> Guess not =/
[09:52] <defrysk> omegacenti, during boot and maybe gdm has a "xubuntu"look
[09:53] <omegacenti> defrysk: so now its not ubuntu anymore it seems...
[09:54] <defrysk> omegacenti, http://tuxicity.wordpress.com/2007/01/30/howto-switch-from-ubuntu-to-kubuntu-or-xubuntu-or-edubuntu-or-vice-versa-610-edgy/
[09:54] <orbin> sx66: well if you've checked that nm-applet isn't running, run it.  alt-f2
[09:54] <omegacenti> defrysk: checking it out
[09:54] <orbin> sx66: and hopefully it should show up
[09:54] <gordboy> gksu
[09:55] <sx66> it does not orbin, I had deleted the 4 bars thingy thinking it was a different icon.
[09:55] <MacDrunk> hello any ideas how to install netscape ?
[09:55] <MacDrunk> i just dl the new version but cant install
[09:56] <omegacenti> cool link defrysk :)
[09:56] <crimsun> jscinoz: I can't reproduce your symptom with either Type set
[09:56] <jscinoz> crimsun, what should i do now?
[09:56] <crimsun> jscinoz: is Legends still running in a window?
[09:56] <defrysk> omegacenti, wrote it myself ;)
[09:56] <jscinoz> yesh
[09:56] <MacDrunk> also i have some issues whit firefox i appers to be that can not open a window were i can access my webmail account
[09:57] <jscinoz> i mean no
[09:57] <omegacenti> alright rebooting to see what kind havoc has been wrecked
[09:57] <omegacenti> defrysk: I applaud L(
[09:57] <defrysk> :D
[09:57] <crimsun> jscinoz: which Ubuntu version is this?
[09:58] <jscinoz> 7.04
[09:58] <MacDrunk> so anyone that can help me please
[09:58] <orbin> sx66: hmm, not sure how you can delete it as i get no remove option when i right-click
[09:58] <MacDrunk> need to install a diferent browser
[09:58] <zoidberg> guys
[09:59] <sx66> orbin, I removed it from that, right click and remove....:(
[09:59] <zoidberg> i have a question....has anyone watched videos from the site http://stage6.divx.com
[09:59] <zoidberg> it requires some special divx web streaming plugin
[09:59] <zoidberg> is there anything like this for ubuntu?
[09:59] <zoidberg> i know it works on xp
[09:59] <gordboy> jscinoz, this has gone on long enough. try another channel
[09:59] <leagris> !multimedia
[09:59] <ubotu> Ubuntu 7.04 installs multimedia codecs automatically. For older versions of Ubuntu, or if you can't use the automatic installer, see https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - For multimedia applications, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultimediaApplications
[10:00] <jscinoz> gordboy, why does this concern you?
[10:00] <MacDrunk> any ideas
[10:01] <orbin> sx66: hmm, that's puzzling: http://img184.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=th_62537_shot_122_451lo.jpg
[10:02] <crimsun> jscinoz: let me outline the logic for my testing: because the aplay command invoked via the custom application launcher is audible, we've eliminated the possibility of ALSA doing anything strange (which it shouldn't be, since the menu doesn't interact with ALSA in that fashion)
[10:03] <marcus_> does anybody know how to set an install prefex on a cpan installation?
[10:04] <crimsun> jscinoz: we now need to see why Songbird is not launching correctly for you via the launcher; I've attempted to reproduce your symptom with Songbird, but I have been unsuccessful in that regard, meaning, it launches and plays audibly here.
[10:04] <MacDrunk> well thanks anywey
[10:04] <MacDrunk> way
[10:04] <MacDrunk> see ya lla
[10:04] <sx66> orbin, check it: http://i11.tinypic.com/4uoq0eh.png
[10:04] <mynock> hello has anyone been able to get beryl or equivalent destktop effects to work on dual screen ati graphics cards?
[10:04] <crimsun> jscinoz: I presume this is a standard 7.04 install using i386 (not amd64, not using automatix2 or the like)?
[10:05] <omegacenti> I am afraid of what I have seen defrysk
[10:05] <jscinoz> yes standard
[10:05] <omegacenti> defrysk: I could not find any way to get my wireless to work in Xfce
[10:05] <michup> hi, could someone give me advice about program similar to cool edit to make audio (radio audition)
[10:05] <michup> ?
[10:05] <jscinoz> Crimsun, thanks for all the help i'm going to try mess around with some scripts and see if i can get it to work, bye for now :)
[10:05] <crimsun> jscinoz: ok, good luck with it
[10:06] <bullgard4> What preferred program recommends Ubuntu to play Audio-CDs?
[10:06] <omegacenti> I tried an Xfce session and I couldn't find any wireless settings... Suggestions?
[10:06] <jscinoz> thanks, i'll need it
[10:07] <RoAkSoAx> omegacenti: try installing network manager
[10:07] <kslc> crimsun: do you have time for my problem? :)
[10:07] <orbin> sx66: that specifies it be run at boot.  have you rebooted since it disappeared?
[10:07] <crimsun> kslc: I need to check source, please wait a sec
[10:07] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: I think its already installed... I am using NetworkManager applet 0.6.4
[10:07] <kslc> ok thanks
[10:07] <pike_> omegacenti: dunno i usually do from the terminal. sudo ifconfig eth1 up   then iwlist eth1 scan    then sudo iwconfig eth1 essid something   then sudo dhclient
[10:07] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: Do you knwo if I can run XFCE on some other tty at the same time I am on this session? (this session is tty7 with gnome)
[10:07] <sx66> yes, I have shut down. and restarted the icon does not appear, therefor I have to plug in the Ethernet to connect to the internet
[10:08] <sx66> orbin, look above.
[10:08] <omegacenti> pike_: holy $%^&... I totally don't understand any of that.
[10:08] <mynock> hello has anyone been able to get beryl or equivalent destktop effects to work on dual screen ati graphics cards?
[10:08] <thedrummer> hi , i have a little question . What is the easiest way to kill X in ubuntu ?
[10:08] <thedrummer> tryed init3 but nothing happens
[10:08] <pike_> thedrummer: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[10:09] <thedrummer> ty
[10:09] <RoAkSoAx> omegacenti in a console try doing: switchdesk xfce then startx -- :2 and the new session will be on ctrl+alt+f8
[10:09] <crimsun> kslc: luckly yours is fairly straightforward.
[10:09] <crimsun> kslc: luckily, even
[10:10] <SuperQ> ugh
[10:10] <kslc> hm nice
[10:10] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: that wont kill this one though will it?
[10:10] <SuperQ> just as I'm finally getting to sleep, pager goes off
[10:10] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: switchdesk command not found
[10:10] <mynock> hello has anyone been able to get beryl or equivalent destktop effects to work on dual screen ati graphics cards?
[10:10] <RoAkSoAx> omegacenti nope, the actual session will be on ctrl+alt+f7
[10:10] <crimsun> kslc: please use this command: echo options snd-hda-intel model=laptop|sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
[10:10] <orbin> sx66: right-click the notification area applet & remove it.  then re-add it.  then run nm-applet
[10:11] <kraypius> can someone please help me find the kernel source for 2.6.17-11-generic ?
[10:11] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: I don't think I have switch desk..
[10:11] <sx66> nm-applet in the shell, orbin?
[10:11] <kraypius> i cant seem to find the right file
[10:11] <orbin> sx66: alt+f2
[10:11] <SuperQ> kraypius: apt-get install kernel-source-$(uname -r)
[10:11] <crimsun> kraypius: apt-get source linux-source-2.6.17
[10:11] <SuperQ> or that
[10:11] <kraypius> i have 2.6.17 source
[10:11] <RoAkSoAx> omegacenti try: swit and before you press enter press tab key twice
[10:12] <Plantain> What mount point should swap be given?
[10:12] <kraypius> i need the exact one i said though
[10:12] <mynock> hello has anyone been able to get beryl or equivalent destktop effects to work on dual screen ati graphics cards?
[10:12] <RoAkSoAx> Plantain: swap
[10:12] <kslc> ok
[10:12] <kslc> done
[10:12] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: will do
[10:12] <crimsun> kslc: now, let's make it effective for your current session.  First, you need to close all applications using sound.
[10:12] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: NOTHING
[10:12] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: sorry caps.
[10:12] <RoAkSoAx> omegacenti that will show you all commands that start with swit, press them fast
[10:13] <kslc> ok
[10:13] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: I did.
[10:13] <Plantain> RoAkSoAx: Not /swap or anything? Just 'swap' ?
[10:13] <RoAkSoAx> Plantain: yes just swap
[10:13] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: I really think I don't have it.
[10:13] <Plantain> thanks v. much
[10:13] <xystic> The KTouch application can be installed if KDE isn't, yes?
[10:13] <RoAkSoAx> Plantain welcome
[10:13] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: I have used tab completion before. Its not there.
[10:13] <RoAkSoAx> omegacenti mmmm let me check
[10:14] <Plantain> Roaksoax: It says it must have a / before the name, so I guess I'll add that
[10:14] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: Thanks :)
[10:14] <kraypius> bash-completion
[10:14] <Plantain> It refuses to work without it
[10:14] <Peppery> Hi, how can I get a directory listing, but showing subdirectories too? Like ls, but showing the contents of subdirectories (and so on) in a single command?
[10:14] <crimsun> kslc: second, pkill mixer_applet
[10:15] <kslc> done
[10:15] <sx66> nope, orbin
[10:15] <sx66> nope, orbin
[10:15] <SuperQ> Peppery: find is better
[10:15] <crimsun> kslc: next, sudo rmmod snd-hda-intel&& sudo insmod snd-hda-intel model=laptop
[10:15] <SuperQ> Peppery: if you want just filenames, not direcotry names
[10:15] <SuperQ> Peppery: find . -type f
[10:15] <haf> I have a problem with Google Earth and my proxy config - I have used the Gnome Network Proxy Tool to set my proxy which works in most applications, Google Earth won't connect. So I set the export variable http_proxy in a terminal - Google Earth still won't connect via the desktop link - but if I start Google Earth in the terminal, it connects correctly - why is this?
[10:15] <Peppery> SuperQ: No, I know the directory. It has quite a lot of files and I'd like a listing of all of the,
[10:15] <orbin> sx66: ah, not sure then sorry.  searched the forum and/or made your own thread yet?
[10:16] <clsk> crimsun: hm I get this: insmod: can't read 'snd-hda-intel': No such file or directory
[10:16] <Peppery> ah, got it. ls /dir/*
[10:16] <SuperQ> Peppery: that works too
[10:16] <crimsun> clsk: oh, right.  sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel model=laptop
[10:17] <mynock> I have tried to get beryl to work with my dual screen setup but to no avail.. I am using an ati graphics card.. does anyone have any information on how to fix this problem?
[10:17] <SuperQ> Peppery: find is still better
[10:17] <clsk> ok
[10:17] <RoAkSoAx> omegacenti try doing: startx -- :2 and log in with xfce in ctrl + alt+f8
[10:17] <clsk> done
[10:17] <crimsun> clsk: now, aplay /usr/share/sounds/*up.wav
[10:17] <Peppery> Wait, thats not it.
[10:18] <Peppery> Superq: I need directory names, so it's not. -_-
[10:18] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: will do
[10:18] <SuperQ> Peppery: find /dir -type d
[10:18] <clsk> still no sound
[10:18] <RoAkSoAx> omegacenti if it doesnt work try using sudo or gksudo
[10:18] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: should I sudo that?
[10:18] <SuperQ> Peppery: or without the -type
[10:18] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: which one...
[10:18] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: I know you can break a system by using the wrong one
[10:18] <SuperQ> Peppery: read the find man page, it's very nice
[10:18] <Peppery> Sweet, thanks SuperQ
[10:19] <SuperQ> Peppery: np
[10:19] <BusMaster> hey fellows, if I install 64 bit Ubuntu, can I still apt-get, install and run my favourite 32 bit apps? Or are 64 and 32 two different worlds that can't be mixed?
[10:19] <RoAkSoAx> omegacenti try it without sudo, and see what happens
[10:19] <crimsun> clsk: did you adjust the mixer levels?
[10:19] <SuperQ> BusMaster: they can be mixed, but it takes a bit of effort
[10:20] <SuperQ> BusMaster: unless you have a specific reason to run 64bit (you have > 3G of ram, specific 64bit only app), 32bit is fine
[10:20] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: not sure but I think alt-f8 just went... BOOM!
[10:20] <BusMaster> SuperQ: and is it true that 64 bit Ubuntu will run significantly faster than 32 bit Ubuntu on the same 64 bit processor? I am thinking of getting a laptop based on the AMD Turion 64 X2 processor
[10:20] <clsk> hm no. but the volume is up all the way
[10:20] <BusMaster> SuperQ: oh!
[10:21] <crimsun> clsk: please pastebin your `amixer`
[10:21] <SuperQ> BusMaster: "it depends"  somethings run better, others worse
[10:21] <RoAkSoAx> BusMaster i have an amd athlon 64 running a 32bit ubuntu and it works just fine
[10:21] <SuperQ> BusMaster: for most "desktop" application usage, 64bit is not necessary (yet)
[10:21] <BusMaster> i see...
[10:21] <RoAkSoAx> omegacenti what happende?
[10:22] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: its stuck at a point in the boot on alt -f8
[10:22] <BusMaster> SuperQ: for what is 64 bit actually used?
[10:22] <clsk> crimsun: http://pastebin.ca/554814
[10:22] <SuperQ> BusMaster: some things like databases, 3d-rendering, etc are better
[10:22] <SuperQ> BusMaster: anything that deals with very large datasets
[10:23] <crimsun> clsk: using speakers or headphones?
[10:23] <RoAkSoAx> omegacenti should have loaded a new gnome desktop on ctrl+alt+f8
[10:23] <SuperQ> BusMaster: but firefox/openoffice/watching movies don't need it at all
[10:23] <BusMaster> SuperQ: Hmm..i guess I don't need it then. But as a point of interest, so is it possible to install a 64 bit kernel and the rest of the system as a regular 32 bit system, so taht one can just install a 64 bit app "in-case" it is needed ?
[10:23] <clsk> crimsun: yes I've tried both before. I'll try headphones again to make sure
[10:23] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: I did: sudo startx -- :2
[10:23] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: it is stuck
[10:24] <SuperQ> BusMaster: I have seen that done, I don't know if ubuntu provides an easy out of the box solution tho
[10:24] <berkes> is there a tool or command in ubuntu to rebuild the fstab entirely?
[10:24] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: its stuck on enabling alsa mixer, timidity not set yet
[10:24] <clsk> crimsun: headphones don't work either
[10:24] <crimsun> clsk: it _may_ be that you need to completely power down and power back up; Conexant codecs can be finnicky.
[10:24] <crimsun> clsk: before you do that, however, let me double-check the source.
[10:25] <clsk> ok. I'll try that while you check the code.
[10:26] <alchu> hi, i'm sorry, i'm having some trouble with azureus and i was wondering if anybody could help me
[10:26] <omegacenti> am I still on?
[10:26] <BusMaster> SuperQ: one fineal question: can I just pretend that my shiny new 64 bit processor is a regular 32 bit and run regular 32 bit apps on it? or are there apps (firefox, OOo etc.) that are specially compiled "32 bit for 64 bit processors" apps?
[10:27] <thoreauputic> alchu: just tell us what the trouble is - if someone knows they will help
[10:27] <alchu> superq:some apps do not support new 64 bit processors
[10:27] <SuperQ> BusMaster: erm
[10:27] <alchu> i don't know what port to choose, i chose one below 45000 and i am not able to connect to the trackers
[10:28] <bullgard4> What preferred program recommends Ubuntu to play Audio-CDs?
[10:28] <SuperQ> BusMaster: you can install 32bit "noraml" ubuntu, and never use a single 64bit app ever on the current AMD chips
[10:28] <diazepam> hi all - anyone here know how to list all of the IP's on a smb network?
[10:28] <SuperQ> alchu: ermm.. like what
[10:28] <kraypius> can I upgrade my edgy install to the latest ubuntu release and with kernel 2.6.20 without a complete reinstall?
[10:28] <BusMaster> SuperQ: cool.. thanks a lot
[10:28] <clsk> crimsun: a reboot didn't help.
[10:28] <thoreauputic> alchu: if you use the startup wizard it should work - personally I use a very high port near 60000
[10:29] <thoreauputic> alchu: you probbaly also need to port forward from your router
[10:29] <SuperQ> kraypius: yes
[10:29] <alchu> thoreauputic: thanks, i'll see what i can do
[10:29] <kraypius> superq, how?
[10:29] <Asincrono> hi
[10:29] <thoreauputic> alchu: I would recommend reading the Azureus wiki as well
[10:29] <alchu> superq: i have a 64 bit processor and i can't run adobe flash player 9 for example
[10:30] <SuperQ> kraypius: gksudo update-manager (i think)
[10:30] <clsk> also I'm running from alsa-base package. Should I install the latest alsa from source?
[10:30] <Asincrono> I instaled ubuntu feisty yesterday and...
[10:30] <SuperQ> alchu: in 64bit mode yes
[10:30] <clsk> alsamixer --version returns 1.0.13
[10:30] <Asincrono> ... where the "hosts.allow" and "hosts.deny" gone?
[10:30] <kraypius> ?
[10:30] <d3bian> Asin: Are yoiu using gnome od kde?
[10:30] <SuperQ> alchu: if you run 32bit kernel/userspace, there are no problems with flash9
[10:30] <berkes> every update my fstab UUID break. resulting in a swap mount that is not activated. Rebuilding fstab from scratch may be the best option, not?
[10:31] <thoreauputic> alchu: http://www.azureuswiki.com/index.php/Main_Page  <-- read the FAQ and the "Godd Settings" page at least
[10:31] <alchu> superq: is there one? i downloaded it from the official site and i can't install it.
[10:31] <SuperQ> alchu: you can even run a 64bit/32bit hybrid kernel with 32bit userspace and run flash9
[10:31] <alchu> thoreauputic: thanks!
[10:31] <thoreauputic> alchu: umm "Good Settings"
[10:31] <d3bian> Asincrono:if using nautilus press Ctrl-H and you should see everything
[10:31] <thoreauputic> alchu: no problem :)
[10:31] <SuperQ> alchu: My desktop at work is a dual opteron with 16G of ram, so I run a 64/32bit hybrid kernel
[10:32] <alchu> superq: i have to admmit i have just installed ubuntu today, so i'm just getting into all of this :)
[10:32] <SuperQ> alchu: but the base OS was installed with 32bit only
[10:32] <alchu> superq: but you make it run both 32/64 bit at the same time?
[10:32] <SuperQ> alchu: so my copy of firefox is 32bit
[10:32] <Asincrono> d3bian: I'm using console
[10:33] <SuperQ> alchu: yes, a few of the apps I run are compiled for 64bit
[10:33] <Asincrono> d3bian: there is not "hosts.allow" or "hosts.deny" in my /etc/
[10:33] <SuperQ> alchu: but the majority of everything is 32bit still
[10:33] <SuperQ> like I was saying before.. running hybrid mode is NOT easy
[10:33] <alchu> superq: yeah i know, it's a shame they don't get right into ir.
[10:33] <Asincrono> can I just create that files or there is a change in last ubuntu about tcpwrappers?
[10:34] <SuperQ> even windows 64bit doesn't have a working flash player
[10:34] <maulik> hello...where does one go to get help regarding mod-python complaining about a version mismatch ?
[10:34] <SuperQ> (the flash code is horribly dependant on 32bit-ness)
[10:34] <rinky> at a shell login, if I mistype a username, it doesnt seem to give me an easy way to correct myself, it just asks me for the correct password for a non-existant user over and over, any workaround for mistyped usernames to allow me to enter a correct user?
[10:34] <crimsun> clsk: yes, let's get you running 1.0.14 final
[10:35] <clsk> ok
[10:35] <d3bian> Asincrono:you have to create them
[10:35] <SuperQ> rinky: from a text terminal?
[10:35] <rinky> SuperQ yes, SSH login
[10:35] <SuperQ> rinky: oh.. ssh login is different
[10:35] <SuperQ> rinky: you have to ctrl-c
[10:35] <SuperQ> rinky: and re-try your ssh command
[10:35] <crimsun> clsk: please install the build-essential package, then grab the alsa-driver-1.0.14 tarball, then extract it, then use: ./configure --with-oss=yes --with-sequencer=yes --with-debug=detect --with-cards=hda-intel --with-kernel=/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build&& make&& sudo make install-modules
[10:36] <rinky> ahhh gotcha
[10:36] <rinky> thanks superq
[10:36] <SuperQ> np
[10:36] <kraypius> get it right to begin with when u start with ssh user@ip
[10:36] <SuperQ> kraypius: heh, even I can't type my username sometimes
[10:36] <rinky> i left caps lock on when typing the username :) hehe
[10:36] <SuperQ> heh
[10:37] <SuperQ> I use ssh keys with ssh-agent mostly, so I don't ever type my password
[10:37] <maulik> i said, i say...where does one go to get help regarding mod-python complaining about a version mismatch ?
[10:37] <SuperQ> except to login once, and then another password to unlock ssh agent
[10:37] <rapter> 1280x1024 cant set resolution.
[10:37] <SuperQ> maulik: there may be a ubuntu-server specific channel
[10:37] <kraypius> sometimes ill accidently type my password instead of the uname
[10:37] <SuperQ> maulik: I don't know off the top of my head
[10:37] <kraypius> then have to delete log
[10:38] <SuperQ> kraypius: or change your password ;)
[10:38] <urko> helo to everyone
[10:38] <SuperQ> urko: ahoy!
[10:38] <urko> is wine good program to run any pc-game?
[10:38] <maulik> superQ, thank you :-)
[10:39] <SuperQ> urko: "good" depends on the game
[10:39] <rinky> i have an ssh terminal open, and its behaving strangly, I get no characters appearing on screen when typing anymore, apart from when I hit enter, and it prints " >" (space forwardarrow) how could this happen?
[10:39] <rinky> I entered a find command just before it messed up
[10:39] <SuperQ> urko: some games work in vanila wine, some work in cedega, some work in crossover-office, others just don't work at all
[10:40] <SuperQ> rinky: reset
[10:40] <SuperQ> rinky: will reset the terminal emulation
[10:40] <kraypius> i can get world of warcraft to work for about 10 seconds and it freezes
[10:40] <rinky> superq: a mere re-login fixed it, but I was curious as to what could cause it
[10:40] <clsk> crimsun; done.
[10:40] <urko> where can i get informations which game works in certain program?
[10:40] <rinky> and I cannot type "reset" as no character keys respond
[10:40] <SuperQ> rinky: an explanation would require a long long history lesson about vt100
[10:41] <Blip> hi.. i just tried to setup dual monitors on ubuntu fiesty.. however both my monitors show the same screen
[10:41] <crimsun> clsk: after you reboot, look at the contents of /proc/asound/version to ensure it reads 1.0.14  (cat /proc/asound/version)
[10:41] <rinky> ahh I see :)
[10:41] <omegacenti> roaknok is gone?
[10:41] <SuperQ> rinky: basically, the echoing of your typing can be turned on and off (so you can enter passwords)
[10:41] <clsk> ok
[10:41] <clsk> brb
[10:41] <omegacenti> dangit
[10:41] <urko> i realy want to play command & conquer tiberian sun or tiberian wars
[10:41] <omegacenti> whats the command to start another x in another tty again?
[10:41] <tarzeau> omegacenti: startx -- :1
[10:42] <SuperQ> rinky: reset will fix most terminal wackyness
[10:42] <kraypius> urko. so search: tiberian sun on ubuntu
[10:42] <rinky> I try entering reset, and hitting enter on the dodgy terminal, it doesnt cause any changes
[10:42] <urko> thnx SuperQ
[10:42] <KEEV> how do i load apps in startup
[10:42] <SuperQ> rinky: try hitting ctrl-q first
[10:43] <SuperQ> (mmm, flow control)
[10:43] <omegacenti> tarzeau: Mine is getting stuck at a certain spot.
[10:43] <kslc> !startup | KEEV
[10:43] <ubotu> KEEV: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot
[10:43] <rinky> ctrl-q and reset dont seem to have any effect
[10:43] <omegacenti> tarzeau: the second one. I am using startx -- :2 and it sticks. know why?
[10:43] <SuperQ> rinky: hrm.. they should
[10:43] <KEEV> ty
[10:43] <SuperQ> rinky: oh.. sorry.. >
[10:44] <quio> Hello
[10:44] <SuperQ> rinky: just hit ctrl-c
[10:44] <rinky> yay!!
[10:44] <tarzeau> omegacenti: no? what does it say? check the log?
[10:44] <rinky> success
[10:44] <SuperQ> rinky: > is an indication of bash continuation
[10:44] <omegacenti> tarzeau: which log should I check?
[10:44] <rinky> ctrl-c did it, back to a prompt now
[10:44] <tarzeau> omegacenti: the log it generates?
[10:44] <SuperQ> rinky: so you can type things like:
[10:44] <SuperQ> FOO="blah blah
[10:44] <SuperQ> blah blah"
[10:44] <rinky> ahhh
[10:44] <tarzeau> omegacenti: either in your home and/or /var/log
[10:44] <omegacenti> tarzeau: Im sorry.. which log is coming from "it" ?
[10:44] <kraypius> now do, nmap fbi.gov
[10:44] <SuperQ> echo ${FOO}
[10:44] <rinky> goodness knows how I got myself into that one
[10:44] <tarzeau> omegacenti: .X*
[10:44] <KEEV> kslc, how about the apps i must be logged in as root to run
[10:45] <tarzeau> omegacenti: depends on the x version, and something with x too in /var/log
[10:45] <quio> I have a dell d510.  All of a sudden my wireless internal card stopped working.  Now I have a dlink g650 revision c1 pcmcia card but it does not work.  Any suggestions please?
[10:45] <omegacenti> tarzeau: ah, its saying connection refused from server
[10:45] <SuperQ> rinky: ctrl-c tells bash to abort command input
[10:45] <clsk> crimsun: done. do you want me to install utils, lib and firmware too
[10:45] <tarzeau> omegacenti: hehe
[10:45] <crimsun> clsk: no need
[10:46] <omegacenti> tarzeau: Xlib : connection to :2 refused by server
[10:46] <clsk> ok
[10:46] <tarzeau> omegacenti: so?
[10:46] <tarzeau> omegacenti: it says why it doesn't do what you want it to do
[10:46] <omegacenti> tarzeau: any suggestions? I think this is preventing it from going on
[10:46] <omegacenti> tarzeau: it might be telling me, but I can't understand it.
[10:46] <tarzeau> omegacenti: yes, make it not refuse your connection
[10:46] <tarzeau> omegacenti: then read the documentation?
[10:47] <omegacenti> tarzeau: you just told me to rtfm...
[10:47] <tarzeau> omegacenti: yes?
[10:47] <omegacenti> !rtfm
[10:47] <ubotu> Words like noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[10:47] <quio>  I have a dell d510.  All of a sudden my wireless internal card stopped working.  Now I have a dlink g650 revision c1 pcmcia card but it does not work.  Any suggestions please?
[10:47] <tarzeau> oh sorry, i will not say it anymore
[10:48] <SuperQ> haha
[10:48] <symbiote> what does it mean if while booting during the bash it says "file system is NOT clean" ? cuz b4 wow crashed and froze my comp it was clean lol
[10:48] <rapter> How to fix resolution to 1280x1024.
[10:48] <kraypius> what about "zomg"
[10:48] <kraypius> cause thats my fav
[10:48] <thoreauputic> omegacenti: well, reading the documentation is not bad advice at any time :)
[10:48] <kraypius> zomg*&@^%&%*@IH#
[10:49] <omegacenti> thoreauputic: I know, and I am doing so, however it doesn't help me understand what this error code being said to me in tty2 actually means.
[10:49] <symbiote> what does it mean if while booting during the bash it says "file system is NOT clean" ? cuz b4 WoW crashed and froze my comp it was clean lol
[10:49] <SuperQ> nice, the wikipedia entry for "RTFM" quotes the Ubuntu form policy
[10:50] <omegacenti> symbiote: it must mean dirty then
[10:50] <rinky> symbiote it might mean your filesystem has been marked "dirty"
[10:50] <rinky> dirty filesystems need to be fsck'ed to be cleaned
[10:50] <sahil> hey, i need some help adding something to the startup
[10:50] <SuperQ> !startup | sahil
[10:50] <ubotu> sahil: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot
[10:50] <thoreauputic> omegacenti: I haven't followed the whole conversation - but are you doing two logins with the same user using gnome? Gnome doesn't like that apparently...
[10:51] <sahil> SuperQ i know hat, the problem is the way it executes in the terminal
[10:51] <SuperQ> sahil: ok?
[10:51] <tarzeau> SuperQ: you know you dishonor people that write documentation?
[10:51] <sahil> it is a 2 part command, so how would i enter it
[10:51] <tarzeau> SuperQ: i mean it's written for the people who don't know how it works after all
[10:51] <symbiote> umm.. so whats that mean? my penguin killed a hooker and saved it to my harddrive?
[10:51] <SuperQ> sahil: command1 ; command 2
[10:51] <tarzeau> SuperQ: usually the people that write the manuals know their stuff pretty well
[10:52] <omegacenti> They point out that RTFM is often used when it is not even clear which manual their correspondent should be reading
[10:52] <sahil> superQ, im gonna try it an be back in 10 secs
[10:52] <tarzeau> SuperQ: but it's up to a community and channel rules how they handle things
[10:52] <SuperQ> tarzeau: my S.O. is a technical writer
[10:52] <tarzeau> omegacenti: i can tell you which to read if you want
[10:52] <symbiote> hehehe seriously whats that mean? does linux have a defrag thingy? or a diskchecker util?
[10:52] <SuperQ> tarzeau: She used to write man pages for Cray
[10:52] <omegacenti> tarzeau: go ahead.. I am all ears for understading this vague error message.
[10:53] <rinky> symbiote: fsck is the diskchecker
[10:53] <symbiote> im using riserfs.. cuz i think its the newest kind of filesystem.. i have no clue..
[10:53] <rinky> symbiote: i'm not sure about defraggers though
[10:53] <tarzeau> omegacenti: i'd check the /etc/X11/ config files, tell us what user you are.
[10:53] <Fractal420> Hello, how can I use Add/Remove to install a file on the comp already?
[10:53] <SuperQ> symbiote: oh.. reiserfs.. *mumble*
[10:53] <tarzeau> omegacenti: i can not reproduce your problem, i mean do you do that startx stuff inside X or rly in the console?
[10:53] <symbiote> k lets see what the fsck does weee..
[10:53] <omegacenti> tarzeau: I have read about xorg.conf my username on the system is omegacenti
[10:53] <sx66_> when I type nm-applet --sm-disable I get 'not currently installed' - Then I type: sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome - It says it is unable to unlock admin directory
[10:53] <tarzeau> omegacenti: the msg usually comes when you try to write into an X session that's not yours
[10:54] <thoreauputic> symbiote: linux does not need defrag in general
[10:54] <tarzeau> omegacenti: /etc/X11 has not only xorg.conf, i meant another file, let me check
[10:54] <SuperQ> sahil: yay?
[10:54] <sahil> no yay:(
[10:54] <SuperQ> :(
[10:54] <teethdood> ZFS...what's the news on this front for linux guys?
[10:54] <sahil> it did not work
[10:54] <omegacenti> tarzeau: it was in tty2 where I issued the commmand startx -- :2
[10:54] <SuperQ> sahil: option 2: create a shell script
[10:54] <compwiz18> can someone remind me what the command that you can give at boot to have the computer optimize the boot sequence/files is?
[10:54] <sahil> SuperQ, i am a noob
[10:54] <rinky> teethdude: I was planning on installing that ZFS later, cant wait to play with it
[10:54] <Fractal420> Hello, how can I use Add/Remove to install a file on the comp already?
[10:54] <Shaddox> Uh, quick question. What ports do an IMAP server use?
[10:54] <SuperQ> sahil: load up gedit
[10:54] <sahil> done
[10:55] <rinky> I love that integrity checking of ZFS
[10:55] <SuperQ> #!/bin/sh
[10:55] <SuperQ> command 1
[10:55] <SuperQ> command 2
[10:55] <symbiote> wow ok umm.. is it doing something?
[10:55] <symbiote> Will read-only check consistency of the filesystem on /dev/hda1
[10:55] <symbiote> Will put log info to 'stdout'
[10:55] <symbiote> Do you want to run this program?[N/Yes]  (note need to type Yes if you do):yes
[10:55] <symbiote> symbiote@symbiote:~$
[10:55] <SuperQ> save that
[10:55] <BusMaster> how much RAM is needed to run Ubuntu for a home user? I am torn between buying a laptopn with 1 Gb ram and paying additional $75 to get 2 Gb ram :(
[10:55] <SuperQ> sahil: ass whatever-startup.sh
[10:55] <symbiote> didnt show anything.. is it running?
[10:55] <thoreauputic> omegacenti:  1) Is tty9 inm use already? 2) is the user authorised to start the X server ?
[10:55] <tarzeau> omegacenti: Xwrapper.config says what?
[10:55] <SuperQ> s/ass/as/
[10:55] <compwiz18> BusMaster: I hardly ever use more then 1gb
[10:55] <sahil> SuperQ, i did not undertsand that last part
[10:55] <sx66_> omegacenti, how do I unstall the network-tools?
[10:56] <sahil> ass whatever-startup.sh
[10:56] <rinky> BusMaster: opinions will no doubt vary "more is better" "1gb is enough", but I'd go for the latter personally
[10:56] <tarzeau> omegacenti: any reason you need more than one X session?
[10:56] <SuperQ> sahil: save the text as the filename "sahil-startup.sh"
[10:56] <omegacenti> thoreauputic: I think its starting on tty8  and I think I am authorised but not sure.
[10:56] <cyberix> Does Ubuntu have a gui for pairing bluetooth devices?
[10:56] <SuperQ> sahil: then you need to make it executeable
[10:56] <omegacenti> tarzeau: just to run XFCE and gnome simultaneously
[10:56] <SuperQ> sahil: chmod 755 sahil-startup.sh
[10:56] <tarzeau> omegacenti: can you launch that X as root?
[10:56] <tarzeau> omegacenti: i see, you know about Xnest ?
[10:56] <Fractal420> can I use Add/Remove to install progs from the internet list only? or can I browse to a file on my system as well?
[10:56] <omegacenti> tarzeau: I you mean like sudo?
[10:56] <BusMaster> compwiz18: do you run simlultaneously firefox, evolution, mp3 player, OOo, Xchat, an IM client and an instance of the GIMP (worst I can think of)
[10:56] <omegacenti> tarzeau: Xnest?
[10:56] <symbiote> do u have to type sudo first? mabey tahst why it did nothing
[10:56] <sahil> SuperQ, should i save it on my Desktop, or does it matter?
[10:56] <thoreauputic> omegacenti: normally :1 would be tty8 and  ;2 would be tty9 I think
[10:56] <clsk> crimsun: I could give you remote access to the machine if that'd help the process of debugging.
[10:56] <tarzeau> omegacenti: no, sudo su, then startx -- :2 just to see if it starts then
[10:56] <BusMaster> rinky: thanks
[10:57] <SuperQ> sahil: put it in ~/
[10:57] <tarzeau> omegacenti: Xnest allows you to run another x server inside your x server
[10:57] <crimsun> clsk: what's the issue?
[10:57] <SuperQ> sahil: then you can add ~/sahil-startup.sh to your startup
[10:57] <compwiz18> BusMaster: want me to try it for you?
[10:57] <compwiz18> hold on
[10:57] <omegacenti> tarzeau: sounds interesting
[10:57] <sahil> SuperQ, how do i get to ~/
[10:57] <clsk> crimsun: hm what do you mean?
[10:57] <omegacenti> tarzeau: so I should type sudo su?
[10:57] <crimsun> clsk: if you've said anything to me after my telling you to check /proc/asound/version, I've missed it due to lack of nick highlighting)
[10:57] <BusMaster> compwiz18: sure..tell me if things slow down to unuseable
[10:57] <sx66_> !network-tools?
[10:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about network-tools? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:57] <tarzeau> omegacenti: in tty2 yes, then startx -- :3
[10:57] <clsk> oh
[10:57] <SuperQ> sahil: when you open a terminal, you start in ~/
[10:57] <tarzeau> omegacenti: are you sure display 2 is not used already?
[10:57] <omegacenti> thoreauputic: Well the stuff showed up in tty8
[10:58] <sahil> ohh ok
[10:58] <tarzeau> omegacenti: because that could be the case w/ the error msg too
[10:58] <tarzeau> omegacenti: i was assuming you know on your system what displays are free and what not
[10:58] <SuperQ> sahil: type 'pwd' to show what directory you are in
[10:58] <omegacenti> tarzeau: I can try startx -- :3 if you would like
[10:58] <sahil> SuperQ, is that it?
[10:58] <clsk> crimsun: I restarted and /proc/asound/version says I'm running 1.0.14
[10:58] <tarzeau> omegacenti: yes try that
[10:58] <SuperQ> sahil: (should be /home/username)
[10:58] <omegacenti> tarzeau: I am not sure...
[10:58] <kraypius> im trying to upgrade to fiesty and I get:
[10:58] <SuperQ> sahil: should be it
[10:58] <sahil> SuperQ, it is
[10:58] <crimsun> clsk: ok, and is audio still inaudible?
[10:58] <tarzeau> omegacenti: then try that as user
[10:58] <sahil> ok, be back in 10
[10:58] <clsk> yes
[10:58] <mrynit> What directory contains my desktop menu entry files?
[10:59] <crimsun> clsk: have you visited HP support about a bios update?
[10:59] <tarzeau> mythos_: you can easily find out by dpkg -L somepkg | grep esktop
[10:59] <clsk> crimsun: no, I haven't.
[10:59] <omegacenti> tarzeau: awesome! I think it worked the whole :3 thing
[10:59] <kraypius> Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/universe/binary-i386/Packages.bz2 Sub-process bzip2 returned an error code (2)

[10:59] <crimsun> clsk: please check if you need a bios update
[10:59] <tarzeau> omegacenti: so :2 was already in use... that simple
[10:59] <symbiote> fsck did nothing
[10:59] <kraypius> no fiesty for me :(
[10:59] <omegacenti> tarzeau: I see. I don't know why tty8 would be in use...
[11:00] <symbiote> do i gotta restart?
[11:00] <cursor> hey all
[11:00] <omegacenti> thanks tarzeau
[11:00] <tarzeau> omegacenti: you use some software that uses it, or you used it and forgot about it?
[11:00] <sx66_> tarzeau, , how do I unstall the network-tools?
[11:00] <tarzeau> sx66_: i don't know, why do you ask me?
[11:00] <omegacenti> tarzeau: never used tty8 before..
[11:00] <tarzeau> omegacenti: some software use that, vmware for example
[11:00] <tarzeau> omegacenti: or if you run svgalib software
[11:00] <omegacenti> tarzeau: Thats it then!
[11:00] <sx66_> no one knows
[11:00] <omegacenti> tarzeau: its vmware
[11:00] <Fractal420> Hello, how can I use Add/Remove to install a file on the comp already?
[11:01] <tarzeau> omegacenti: i see
[11:01] <thoreauputic> omegacenti: do you use tightvnc or similar? that usually starts on :1
[11:01] <tarzeau> omegacenti: you know about virtualbox ?
[11:01] <compwiz18> BusMaster: well, I don't have xchat or evolution, so I subsituted a couple extra OOo windows for them.  I opened 6 pictures in GIMP and I am running Exaile and two copies of Firefox with 11 tabs open.  I have pidgin/gaim running and the system monitor
[11:01] <omegacenti> tarzeau: I do not know about virtual box
[11:01] <SecrethX> How can I let ubuntu autmatically choose eth1 in stead of letting me choose everytime?
[11:01] <clsk> hm brb I have to boot windows and check for bios updates.
[11:01] <tarzeau> omegacenti: is great free software replacement for vmware
[11:01] <sahil> SuperQ, nope
[11:01] <omegacenti> tarzeau: thanks ^_^
[11:01] <klien5> hellllllllllllllllllllllllllloooooooooooooo
[11:01] <SuperQ> sahil: what exactly are you trying to run?
[11:01] <rapter> when I login my xgl gnome is getting a destorted effect. I solvd it oance in a previous install , when somebody sugested I should instale a package in synaptic the name of wich I've fergotten . So the purpose of this post is to get the package name wich solws my Synaptic problem.
[11:01] <compwiz18> BusMaster: I'm using 583 MB of ram - although I'm not on Ubuntu right now, but it is very similar
[11:01] <sahil> SuperQ, cairo-dock, lol
[11:01] <BusMaster> compwiz18: thanks
[11:02] <kraypius> something is wrong with the fiesty downloads?
[11:02] <kraypius> Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/universe/binary-i386/Packages.bz2 Sub-process bzip2 returned an error code (2)
[11:02] <kraypius> Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/universe/binary-i386/Packages.bz2 Sub-process bzip2 returned an error code (2)
[11:02] <omegacenti> tarzeau: it seems that virtualbox is not in the repositories.
[11:02] <compwiz18> BusMaster: np.  I once opened over 100 programs, and it still ran nicely :D
[11:02] <kraypius> i cant upgrade
[11:02] <SuperQ> sahil: so what exact commands are you trying to run?
[11:02] <sahil> SuperQi need to first navigate to cd /opt/cairo-dock and then do this command "./Cairo-dock --no-glitz"
[11:02] <SuperQ> ohhhhh
[11:02] <tarzeau> omegacenti: check google, they got packages
[11:02] <omegacenti> tarzeau: I have no idea how to install a package :) point me in the right direction?
[11:03] <SuperQ> sahil: instead of ;, you need &&
[11:03] <tarzeau> omegacenti: open a terminal
[11:03] <tarzeau> omegacenti: you have feisty?
[11:03] <sahil> SuperQ, will be back in 10 secs, thanks a lot
[11:03] <SuperQ> sahil: cd /opt/cairo-dock && ./Cairo-dock --no-glitz
[11:03] <tarzeau> omegacenti: wget http://www.virtualbox.org/download/1.4.0/virtualbox_1.4.0-21864_Ubuntu_feisty_i386.deb
[11:03] <SuperQ> oh
[11:03] <tarzeau> omegacenti: sudo dpkg -i virtualbox_1.4.0-21864_Ubuntu_feisty_i386.deb
[11:03] <tarzeau> omegacenti: that's all
[11:03] <omegacenti> tarzeau: cool
[11:04] <thoreauputic> tarzeau: gdebi + double click is easiest now ( vs.  sudo dpkg -i )
[11:04] <tarzeau> thoreauputic: i don't know gdebi
[11:04] <sahil> SuperQ, no luck :(
[11:04] <SuperQ> arg
[11:04] <tarzeau> thoreauputic: but gdebi description is wrong: apt does the same, but only for remote (http, ftp)
[11:04] <cursor> fracture420 you wanted help?
[11:04] <tarzeau> thoreauputic: you can have file:// links in sources.list
[11:04] <SuperQ> I'm guessing something else is not working
[11:04] <thoreauputic> tarzeau: GUI installer for .deb - does dependencies, installed by default
[11:05] <tarzeau> thoreauputic: so gdebi is redundant
[11:05] <sahil> SuperQ , that is what i had entered cd /opt/cairo-dock && ./cairo-dock --no-glitz
[11:05] <thoreauputic> tarzeau: ?
[11:05] <tarzeau> thoreauputic: synaptic can also install stuff on a local filesystem repo
[11:05] <omegacenti> tarzeau: if this works I think I am going to uninstall vmware seeing as I haven't used it yet :) thankyou very much for the info.
[11:05] <SuperQ> sahil: it's case sensitive you know
[11:05] <rapter> when I login my xgl gnome is getting a destorted effect. I solvd it oance in a previous install , when somebody sugested I should instale a package in synaptic the name of wich I've fergotten . So the purpose of this post is to get the package name wich solws my Synaptic problem.
[11:05] <thoreauputic> tarzeau: I was just pointing i=out that all you need to do is double click the deb
[11:05] <sahil> SuperQ, yes i know. I just copied the working commands from my terminal
[11:05] <SuperQ> sahil: just making sure
[11:06] <SuperQ> hrm
[11:06] <thoreauputic> tarzeau: that isn't redundant for new users :)
[11:06] <SecrethX> How can I let ubuntu autmatically choose eth1 in stead of letting me choose everytime?
[11:06] <tarzeau> thoreauputic: i see, i'm not a fan of clicking system administration
[11:06] <tarzeau> thoreauputic: i meant the software
[11:06] <thoreauputic> tarzeau:  *sigh* you missed the point
[11:06] <SuperQ> sahil: I guess I don't know anything about cairo-dock
[11:06] <thoreauputic> tarzeau: nevr mind...
[11:06] <cursor> fracture420: you wanted help?
[11:06] <sahil> SuperQ, is there a way to open a terminal at start-up automatically and force it to execute those commands
[11:07] <SuperQ> sahil: you should be able to build a script that will do it
[11:07] <cursor> i can help
[11:07] <SuperQ> sahil: maybe you need a full path for a startup script
[11:07] <SuperQ> sahil: /home/username/sahil-startup.sh
[11:07] <SuperQ> sahil: (for whatever username is)
[11:07] <sahil> SuperQ, yes i had put that in
[11:07] <SuperQ> oh
[11:07] <SuperQ> strange
[11:08] <cursor> you done chmod 755 ?
[11:08] <SecrethX> How can I let ubuntu autmatically choose eth1 in stead of letting me choose everytime?
[11:08] <sahil> shoudl i change it to 777 instead of 775
[11:08] <SuperQ> sahil: no!
[11:08] <sahil> i mean 755*
[11:08] <SuperQ> 755 is correct :)
[11:08] <sahil> SuperQ, what is the difference ?
[11:08] <SuperQ> sahil: in the script instead of cd use pushd
[11:08] <SuperQ> pushd /opt/cairo-dock
[11:08] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: enter it with mac address in /etc/iftab
[11:09] <SuperQ> !chmod | sahil
[11:09] <ubotu> sahil: 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
[11:09] <SuperQ> sahil: FilePermissions explains it all
[11:09] <sahil> SuperQ, be back in 10
[11:09] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, so change the eth0 to eth1 and change the mac address?
[11:09] <SuperQ> sahil: (probably better than I can)
[11:10] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: I was assuming you were getting random changes from eth0 to eth1 or vice versa on boot
[11:10] <sahil> SuperQ, no, it still does not work
[11:10] <SuperQ> weird
[11:10] <thoreauputic> SecrethX:  /etc/iftab lets you map mac to interface ( ethX)
[11:10] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, no. My eth0 port is broken (its in the motherboard) and I now put a PCI card inside to get internet. But now at boot, it wont automatically connect anymore
[11:11] <omegacenti> tarzeau: it said errors found, dependency issues.
[11:11] <SuperQ> sahil: something in your normal environment must be necessary to make that app work
[11:11] <sahil> SuperQ, i don't understand
[11:11] <SuperQ> sahil: ok.. one last try:
[11:11] <tarzeau> omegacenti: more exactly?
[11:11] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: ah I see - maybe map the eth1 to the former eth0 mac - but I'm not sure if that works
[11:12] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: you could try it to see I suppose...
[11:12] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, neither am I, im still a newbie
[11:12] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, so change it all to eth1 ?
[11:12] <sahil> SuperQ, you want me to try what again?/
[11:12] <omegacenti> tarzeau: sorry just found the dependency.. libxalan110
[11:12] <SuperQ> sahil: no.. i'm trying something on my machine
[11:12] <omegacenti> tarzeau: How would I go about getting that
[11:12] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: worth a try - you can reverse it if it doesn't work
[11:12] <SuperQ> sahil: gimmie a sec
[11:12] <tarzeau> omegacenti: apt-get install libxalan110
[11:12] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, yea, ill back it up
[11:12] <sahil> SuperQ, sure
[11:13] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, how can I get my mac address?
[11:13] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: ifconfig -a shows your hardware addresses
[11:13] <sahil> SuperQ be back in 10
[11:13] <thoreauputic> which are MAC addresses
[11:13] <omegacenti> tarzeau: now what? resume virtualbox? how would I do that.
[11:14] <tarzeau> omegacenti: then retry the dpkg -i again
[11:14] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, HWaddr 52:54:AB:1F:E0:DC << this one?
[11:14] <kraypius> this thing wants to download 841mb of files to upgrade to fiesty?
[11:14] <omegacenti> tarzeau: nm it looks like it automatically resumed
[11:14] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: yes
[11:14] <tarzeau> omegacenti: great, start it?
[11:14] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, ok.. I also see a eth0:avah whats that?
[11:14] <omegacenti> tarzeau: did
[11:14] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: that's for avahi - not relevant in this case
[11:15] <omegacenti> tarzeau: weird.. tried to type: virtualbox.. but nothing happened.. command not found
[11:15] <kslc> crimsun: my bios is up-to-date
[11:15] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, okay.. and dont change the 'arp 1' after the mac address?
[11:15] <tarzeau> omegacenti: VirtualBox maybe?
[11:15] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: normally each card shows a MAC - one for eth0 one for eth1 etc
[11:15] <berkes> is there a flag in some /etc file that allows me to get rid of those frkn UUIDs in fstab?
[11:15] <omegacenti> tarzeau: thats it :)
[11:15] <omegacenti> tarzeau: thanks!
[11:15] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: hang on - looking at the file here
[11:15] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, yea, I see the mac of the eth0
[11:15] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, ok
[11:15] <kraypius> zomg stfu and rtfm ffs noob fod lmao
[11:15] <SuperQ> sahil: ok..
[11:15] <omegacenti> tarzeau: cool!
[11:16] <omegacenti> tarzeau: okay probably deleting vmware now.
[11:16] <kslc> crimsun: also the the sound card works fine in windows.
[11:16] <sahil> SuperQ, yeah im back, but still no luck
[11:16] <avihaiorel76> Hi, i have installed wine and it works fine until I try to click an exe file and it does nothing, can any one help?
[11:16] <tarzeau> omegacenti: great
[11:16] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: not sure about the arp number, sorry
[11:16] <omegacenti> tarzeau: Thanks again.
[11:16] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, ok, ill just let it be
[11:16] <tarzeau> avihaiorel76: try run wine the.exe in a terminal
[11:16] <ivx> hey i'm reading a tutorial on how to create a shell script, and it says the first line should be the path to the shell executable file, so that would be the path where the .sh file is located?
[11:16] <avihaiorel76> I did - nothing.
[11:16] <kraypius> ivx, no... path to the interpreter
[11:16] <sahil> SuperQ you think this might work "gnome-terminal && cd /opt/cairo-dock && ./cairo-dock --no-glitz"
[11:16] <avihaiorel76> When I run exe files from the CD it is ok.
[11:16] <SuperQ> no
[11:17] <sahil> SuperQ, how come?
[11:17] <ivx> kraypius, what would that path be then?
[11:17] <SuperQ> sahil: /usr/bin/x-terminal-emulator -e /home/username/sahil-startup.sh
[11:17] <kraypius> /bin/sh i think
[11:17] <SuperQ> sahil: but you need to change one thing the startup.sh
[11:17] <kraypius> something like that
[11:17] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: try reading man iftab and man arp - I'm not sure about arp
[11:17] <sahil> SuperQ, whats that?
[11:17] <SuperQ> sahil: change #!/bin/sh to #!/bin/bash
[11:17] <SuperQ> (sigh, dash)
[11:17] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, was reading that, but understandig it is something different
[11:17] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: heh - I know what you mean :)
[11:18] <SuperQ> sahil: dash doesn't support pushd, so you need bash
[11:18] <ivx> kraypius, okay that is what it is already, then for the second like i can just have a command and it will do that right?
[11:18] <sahil> SuperQ, like this "#!/bin/bash
[11:18] <sahil>  pushd /opt/cairo-dock
[11:18] <sahil>  ./cairo-dock --no-glitz"
[11:18] <kritzstapf> hi since the kernel update yesterday, my laptop boots just veeeery slow when i dont connect the ethernet cable, asking top i found out that ifconfig uses 99% of the cpu load, any ideas whats wrong here?
[11:18] <SuperQ> sahil: yea
[11:18] <sahil> SuperQ, back in 10 secs
[11:19] <kraypius> yeah and you can use logical operators and make equasions and have it evaluate local crap you make up
[11:19] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, im confused.. arp -v shows the mac address of eth0 but it says that the interface is eth1 o_O
[11:19] <kraypius> like any other scripting language
[11:19] <ivx> kritzstapf, type top in terminal, see what it says
[11:19] <kritzstapf> ivx: what exactly? it says a lot ;)
[11:19] <LVKeulen> Hello?
[11:19] <kraypius> i dont know the scripting side of bash tho i know php but im sure its similar
[11:19] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: probably because eth0 is broken ?
[11:19] <omegacenti> Too tired.. think I am going to crash put the system in suspend.
[11:19] <sahil> SuperQ, IT WORKED for 5 secs and then disappeared
[11:20] <SuperQ> lol!
[11:20] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, oh yea >_<
[11:20] <ivx> kritzstapf, it will list all the things running, see which one is using all the cpu
[11:20] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, ill try to reboot now..
[11:20] <SuperQ> ./cairo-dock --no-glitz &
[11:20] <kslc> crimsun: Do you have any more suggestions?
[11:20] <kritzstapf> ivx: didnt i already tell that its ifconfig who uses 99%? :)
[11:20] <sahil> SuperQ, yeah that is the command
[11:20] <kslc> I think I'll just give up
[11:20] <kslc> for now at least
[11:20] <SuperQ> sahil: arg
[11:20] <SuperQ> sahil: I have no idea
[11:21] <ivx> kritzstapf, i thought you said if config said 99% cpu used, andway you can pick a different kernel to boot from, use a different one
[11:21] <sahil> SuperQ, do you know how to make a terminal open, bcuz this program needs that it has to be open
[11:21] <ivx> i think
[11:21] <mrlnwzrd> #math
[11:21] <ivx> kritzstapf, esc when you boot, see if it give you a kernel choice
[11:21] <kraypius> how the hell is ifconfig using 99% of the cpu
[11:22] <SuperQ> sahil: sorry, I'm not sure
[11:22] <SuperQ> sahil: I don't know enough about the app
[11:22] <ivx> kritzstapf, might be suing the wrong drivers
[11:22] <LVKeulen> How do I assign users to certain permission 'groups' ?
[11:22] <gradin> anybody uber at samba configs?
[11:22] <sahil> SuperQ, np thanks for the help. The app is a really old dead project
[11:22] <SuperQ> heh
[11:22] <kritzstapf> ivx: yes of course i can boot an older kernel, but id really like to use the newest ;)
[11:22] <BadRobot> hi borthers and sister,wassup?I've just installed some codecs for mp3's and the sound quality has downgraded,do you guys think is it about the codecs,is it there any codecs that gives better sound quality?
[11:23] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, didnt change anything.. It still makes me choose..
[11:23] <kraypius> badrobot, sure u arent imagining it?
[11:23] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: hmm
[11:23] <ivx> kritzstapf, uninstall the new one then, and then update again and see if it did a better job reloading the modules
[11:23] <LVKeulen> Maybe it doesn't recognize your soundcard anymore :|
[11:23] <LVKeulen> But who can help me?
[11:23] <kritzstapf> ivx: hmm, okay.. linux-image-* that is?
[11:23] <cursor> whats the problem
[11:23] <LVKeulen> well
[11:23] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: maybe you have to actually disconnect the onboard nic - not sure how to do that though
[11:24] <LVKeulen> I need to assign..
[11:24] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, the NetworkManager applet shows two options, but eth0 is grayed out
[11:24] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, via bios?
[11:24] <ivx> kritzstapf, i think so
[11:24] <LVKeulen> I'll show
[11:24] <LVKeulen> I need to give myself write permissions
[11:24] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, worth a try.. Ill be back in a bit..
[11:24] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: possibly - I am not a hardware person - maybe someone else knows
[11:24] <LVKeulen> by adding myself to a certain user group
[11:24] <cursor> yes
[11:24] <sahil> SuperQ, ITS WORKING (but not exactly like it should) but still, progress is good
[11:24] <LVKeulen> but where ARE those groups?
[11:24] <LVKeulen> i'm new to linux :|
[11:25] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, I tried that, when I wasnt getting any internet, but that was because my router wasnt configurated properly :P so I dunno, ill disable it
[11:25] <cursor> im a lil new myself , why do you need the permisions?
[11:25] <LVKeulen> well
[11:25] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, ill be back in a bit
[11:25] <kritzstapf> LVKeulen: you can just use "sudo adduser username group" in a terminal :)
[11:25] <LVKeulen> i recently installed VBox on my machine
[11:25] <LVKeulen> alright :)
[11:25] <LVKeulen> thanks
[11:25] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: also perhaps you can do some voodoo with udev rules
[11:25] <cursor> yep
[11:25] <LVKeulen> (i needed that for a certain virtual machine prog to work)
[11:26] <LVKeulen> Need to relog
[11:26] <LVKeulen> Thanks for the help!
[11:26] <gradin> anybody have any idea where i'm supposed to put the password for the security = share paradigm?
[11:26] <bullgard4> The DEB program package 'gnome-media' contains a few media utilities for the GNOME desktop including 'the GNOME CD player'. What is the name of the executable file of 'the GNOME CD player'?
[11:26] <zipper> Anyone managed to get divxplayer working in linux? It says to "try Mplayer for linux support" - but after installing mplayer + mplayer mozilla plugin, it still shows that message. Any hints?
[11:26] <Hairulfr> #list
[11:27] <thoreauputic> bullgard4:  gnome-cd I think
[11:27] <kraypius> does porn work on linux?
[11:27] <Frogzoo> !porn
[11:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about porn - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:27] <thoreauputic> kraypius: hah
[11:28] <thoreauputic> bullgard4: yes, it's gnome-cd
[11:28] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, ok.. now It shows only 1 option, but it still makes me choose :P
[11:28] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: aargh!
[11:28] <omegacenti> My mous stops working whenever I come out of suspend.
[11:28] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, ifconfig -a shows eth1 only
[11:28] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: network manager still thinks both are there?
[11:28] <bullgard4> thoreauputic: Thank you very much.
[11:29] <thoreauputic> bullgard4: no problem :)
[11:29] <gradin> !samba
[11:29] <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
[11:29] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, nope, it only shows 'wired network', but if I dont click it, I will not have internet
[11:30] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: hmm - if you only have wired and one nic, you can use manual config I think
[11:30] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: you can actually uninstall network-manager if you wish
[11:30] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, what do you mean?
[11:30] <cursor> are there anysites which share infomation about joining a community based proggraming project?
[11:30] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, but will I still have internet after that?
[11:30] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: doing it the "old" way
[11:31] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, ok, but I have no idea what im beginning with :P
[11:31] <cursor> i had similar trouble with my internet , so i wrote a script that runs on startup
[11:31] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: you should see an option "manual config" if you left click the nm-applet
[11:31] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, yes
[11:32] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: you can still set dhcp ( automatic )
[11:32] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: that is, you still get the IP from the router via dhcp
[11:32] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, yes
[11:32] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: so, try the manual config and specify dhcp
[11:33] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, it is already set to DHCP
[11:34] <fattony> moin
[11:34] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: is there a stanza in /etc/network/interfaces for the card ( eth1 in this case I guess)
[11:34] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: the card will need such a stanza if network-manager is not used
[11:36] <BadRobot> i did
[11:36] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: alternatively you can set up a static IP - but that is a bit more involved and may not be what you want
[11:37] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, sorry.. I was disconnected
[11:38] <SecrethX> thoreauputic, but thanks for all you're help, I now have only 1 connection :P But I give up, I need to go
[11:39] <thoreauputic> SecrethX: you can set a static Ip for example with  sudo ifconfig eth1 192.168.1.10  ( or whatever your subnet needs)
[11:39] <salami> Hello
[11:39] <thoreauputic> oh he left...  never mind
[11:41] <BadRobot> hello ubotu grandmother send you some greetings
[11:42] <BadRobot> sorry guys this ubotu keep spamming me and not helping with anything
[11:42] <thoreauputic> BadRobot: ubotu only knows what he has been told :)
[11:43] <mobin> hello friends me incidently deleted files in one of my fat32  disk partition can i recover those files  plzzzzzzz help me
[11:43] <kritzstapf> hm since i updatet the kernel (the -16 one), it loads the wrong driver for my wireless usb stick, -15 loads rt73, which works, but the new -16 loads RT25usb which uses 99% of cpu and just doesnt work.. ideas on fixing this?
[11:44] <thoreauputic> kritzstapf: you might need to blacklist the one that doesn't work and load the other one
[11:45] <alnokta> anyone knows how to clear dns cache?
[11:45] <thoreauputic> kritzstapf:  /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist <-- to blacklist and /etc/modules to autoload the other one
[11:45] <thoreauputic> kritzstapf: seems odd though
[11:45] <kritzstapf> yep
[11:46] <alnokta> wow..1mb+ are in the channel!
[11:46] <thoreauputic> kritzstapf: if the blacklisting works you will see the change on reboot
[11:46] <kritzstapf> thoreauputic: where to get a list of modules to find out the exact name?
[11:46] <thoreauputic> kritzstapf: lsmod
[11:47] <thoreauputic> kritzstapf: oh that is for the ones loaded at the moment of course
[11:47] <BadRobot> i need some urgent help,i mistakenlydeleted the APT line for on the repositories ,the line what gives the server,web/ftp/mirrors adresses for the updates and package on synaptic,how can i get them back?

[11:49] <avihaiorel76> Hello, I have installed wine and it runs exe from a cd but not after installation of programs - why?
[11:49] <thoreauputic> mobin: assuming you bypassed the trash
[11:50] <Frogzoo> !wine | avihaiorel76: I'd suggest you upgrade to the budgetdedicated wine repo, which is much more recent
[11:50] <ubotu> avihaiorel76: I'd suggest you upgrade to the budgetdedicated wine repo, which is much more recent: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[11:50] <mobin> thoreauputic me used rm command
[11:50] <thoreauputic> mobin: then those fies are gone forever
[11:51] <thoreauputic> *files
[11:51] <avihaiorel76> Frogzoo + ubotu = thanks, will do so and check it out.
[11:51] <thoreauputic> mobin: you do have backups, right?
[11:52] <scoldog> I've just been trying to watch a DVD.  For some reason, the DVD plays when I insert the DVD, but when I try and skip forward or move between menus, the DVD freezes.  When I close Totem down and reopen it, it says I don't have the right plugins  Anyone else had this problem?
[11:52] <Frogzoo> scoldog: try vlc, which is better in many ways than totem
[11:52] <thoreauputic> scoldog: try the vlc player - I find it o=works better for DVDs
[11:53] <thoreauputic> Frogzoo: heh - great minds :)
[11:53] <mh512> hi
[11:53] <scoldog> Thanks, I'll try it now
[11:53] <mh512> is it possible to install ubuntu even if I have only 128 MB of RAM?
[11:53] <Frogzoo> thoreauputic: heh :)
[11:53] <mobin> thoreauputic no
[11:53] <thoreauputic> mh512: I would suggest xubuntu - and use the alternate CD
[11:53] <scoldog> Does VLC have a better frontend than totem, DVD wise?
[11:54] <Frogzoo> mh512: that will be troublesome
[11:54] <thoreauputic> mobin: I think you are out of luck then
[11:54] <sivaji>  i dont want to start "mail transport agent" at boot time ple someone help me
[11:54] <thoreauputic> Frogzoo: xubuntu should work fine in 128 MB RAM
[11:54] <alnokta> i was testing an ip for open proxy, so i tried to use it..now after i disabled it..the google.com page won't show up and it shows me a strange page instead
[11:54] <Kalmmmm> hello, my external hard  disk , mounted inrw, becomes ro sometimes, i don't understand why
[11:56] <rinky> I have hit ctrl-Z to escape from a slow process get back to the command line, but now I want to resume that slow process. I type bg %3 but it's still "[3] + Stopped" any ideas?
[11:56] <mh512> thx guys.
[11:56] <thoreauputic> rinky: type fg first
[11:56] <thoreauputic> rinky: then type bg
[11:57] <bullgard4> thoreauputic: I can start the application 'gnome-cd' by issuing the command 'gnome-cd' in a Gnome terminal. I cannot start it via the Gnome menus. But the CD Player Handbook advises to start it via Gnome Main Menu Applications > Sound and Video. How can I create a menu item 'CD Player' in the menu 'Sound and Video'?
[11:57] <scoldog> Can anyone recommend a decent video capture program for ubuntu?  I only need to capture an RCA feed via my video card
[11:57] <rinky> when I type fg, it echos the original slow process command I entered earlier, and when I type bg, it just moves to the next line, I see no prompt
[11:57] <thoreauputic> bullgard4: right-click the applications menu, choose menu editor
[11:58] <thoreauputic> bullgard4: you should see an unticked entry for gnome-cd in Sound and Video
[11:58] <thoreauputic> bullgard4: tick the box and it should appear
[11:58] <rinky> I dont really want to kill the stopped process, as it's a sudo apt-get install. I just dont know how to resume it
[11:59] <alnokta> this channel looks like a big support center
[11:59] <rinky> mutual support, ubuntu anonymous :)
[12:00] <scoldog> is there any DVD friendly frontends for VLC?
[12:00] <bullgard4> thoreauputic: It was exactly as you said! I have done as you said, and I have now the proper menu item in the menu hierarchy. Thank you vey much.
[12:00] <alnokta> free support that is
[12:00] <rinky> ahh, a ctrl-d fixed my stopped job problem
[12:00] <thoreauputic> bullgard4: no problem :) Enjoy!
[12:00] <scoldog> I'm trying to navigate a DVD menu, and keep pressing "Next playlist item" thinking it's a chapter skip
[12:01] <avihaiorel76> I have updated wine and still does not work - I have to say that on my fedora 7 it is just fine.
[12:01] <bullgard4> thoreauputic: Yes, I do enjoy.
[12:01] <thoreauputic> bullgard4: :)
[12:01] <kritzstapf> messing with the kernel on a slow machine rebooting all the time isnt funny :/
[12:01] <sivaji2009>  ple help me i dont want to start "mail transport agent at boot time" how can i do this
[12:02] <thoreauputic> sivaji2009:  you have postfix? Use the update-rc.d utility
[12:03] <thoreauputic> sivaji2009: something like  sudo update-rc.d postfix remove ( check the syntax, I haven't used it for a long time)
[12:03] <linin> any oen can help me plz
[12:04] <linin> one*
[12:04] <sivaji2009> thoreauputic ok i will try
[12:04] <linin> hey alll
[12:04] <linin> plz help me
[12:04] <Zorlin> Anyone need help?
[12:04] <kraypius> not linin
[12:05] <thoreauputic> sivaji2009: man update-rc.d suggests that is right - you may want the -f option to force removal of symlinks
[12:05] <sivaji2009> thoreauputic ok
[12:05] <kraypius> linin, you should ask something
[12:05] <thoreauputic> linin was impatient...
[12:05] <kraypius> oh hes gone
[12:06] <thoreauputic> kraypius: he left apparently
[12:06] <avihaiorel76> Again ... I have the latest version of wine and it does not run exe files - why? HELP PLEASE.
[12:06] <r_a_f> k cuu
[12:06] <thoreauputic> avihaiorel76: try asking in #winehq
[12:07] <avihaiorel76> I have and they said that I should ask here :-)
[12:07] <thoreauputic> hah
[12:07] <kraypius> guys i have a problem
[12:07] <kraypius> i think im attracted to my terminal
[12:07] <thoreauputic> avihaiorel76: you probably need to give more information - if anyone knows they will try to help
[12:07] <rinky> must be the static
[12:08] <avihaiorel76> I did, told them everything.
[12:08] <thoreauputic> avihaiorel76: I meant here, not there
[12:08] <avihaiorel76> My wine runs exe files from a cd but after installation  - nothing.
[12:08] <rinky> avihaiorel76, wine can be a dog to get working at times, have you tried putting your error messages into google
[12:09] <avihaiorel76> No error messages at all :-|
[12:09] <rinky> it just returns you to command line?
[12:09] <thoreauputic> avihaiorel76: are you running your apps using " wine /path/to/foo.exe" ?
[12:10] <avihaiorel76> No ... I just click them as I always have.
[12:10] <thoreauputic> avihaiorel76: try the above - might give you some error messages tha are useful
[12:10] <kraypius> if beryl breaks after edgy is done upgrading to fiesty im gonna cry
[12:11] <thoreauputic> s/tha/that
[12:12] <ganesh> hi
[12:13] <avihaiorel76> Thanks - Ha - it works from the command line- but how do I create a shortcut for this?
[12:13] <thoreauputic> avihaiorel76: for example I just ran wine ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/utorrent.exe ( I have been playing with utorrent in wine from curiosity )
[12:13] <thoreauputic> avihaiorel76: you can make a launcher for it with the command you used
[12:13] <avihaiorel76> How? please ...
[12:14] <avihaiorel76> I run photoshop, freehand and all kinds of stuff on wine :-)
[12:14] <avihaiorel76> (all legal)
[12:14] <thoreauputic> avihaiorel76: I haven't tried it with wine - but I guess just right click the desktop, make launcher, insert command in the command field
[12:16] <marco_linux> hi, I am trying to install a Canon MP160 printer on a Ubuntu Feisty. I have installed the drivers, and the printer is there. When I try to print out a document, it says printing but nothing happen. The print doesn't print.
[12:17] <thoreauputic> avihaiorel76: just tried it here - works fine
[12:17] <Kalmmmm> ok , so my amule crashe every time too, is it unstable on feisty?
[12:17] <thoreauputic> avihaiorel76: just remember to put wine followed by the full path to the .exe
[12:17] <avihaiorel76> When I right click my desktop I do not have the make launcher
[12:17] <peterpow> hi everyone, how do i upgrade windows edgy to ubuntu vista?
[12:17] <thoreauputic> avihaiorel76: are you in gnome?
[12:17] <avihaiorel76> kde
[12:18] <thoreauputic> avihaiorel76: ah - probably just a different name for a launcher - not sure
[12:18] <thoreauputic> avihaiorel76: ask in #kubuntu
[12:19] <avihaiorel76> I really am thankful - blessings :-)
[12:19] <thoreauputic> peterpow: haha

[12:19] <marco_linux> hi, I am trying to install a Canon MP160 printer on a Ubuntu Feisty. I have installed the drivers, and the printer is there. When I try to print out a document, it says printing but nothing happen. The printer doesn't print. Any Ideia?
[12:21] <kraypius> this is why i only buy network printers
[12:21] <sivaji2009> thoreauputic  can i remove /etc/inti.d/sendmail to avoid starting sendmail
[12:22] <kritzstapf> Linux source tree '/usr/src/linux-2.6.20-16-generic' is incomplete or missing! .. which packet to install? :D
[12:23] <thoreauputic> sivaji2009: umm - normally sendmail is not installed - postfix is the usual mta for ubuntu - sendmail is just there for compatiblity reasons afaik
[12:23] <defrysk> kritzstapf, linux-source ?
[12:23] <thoreauputic> sivaji2009: unless you actually installed sendmail
[12:23] <padavoine> hello everybody, i'd like to know if there's any risk whatsoever to inadvertently alter anything on the hard disk when booting from a live CD ?
[12:24] <ubuntufelice> #help
[12:24] <kraypius> depends on what you alter
[12:24] <padavoine> well i don't want to alter anything
[12:24] <kritzstapf> defrysk: is already the newest version..
[12:24] <kraypius> then chances are you wont
[12:25] <ubuntuish> hi i am trying to mount an ntfs external hdd it has issues and can't be accessed from windows, i want to copy and format the hdd but it claims the volume is "dirty"
[12:25] <padavoine> kraypius: chances... ?
[12:25] <kraypius> the likelyhood that you will alter data on the hdd without wanting to do so is slim
[12:25] <padavoine> ok great
[12:26] <padavoine> how could it happen ?
[12:26] <thoreauputic> padavoine: the only way you can affect the hard drive from the live CD is by mounting it deliberately
[12:26] <padavoine> yeah
[12:26] <padavoine> i know
[12:26] <padavoine> but couldn't hardware compatibiility problems affect anything ?
[12:26] <padavoine> well anyway
[12:26] <padavoine> i dunno what i'm talking bout so thanks a lot
[12:26] <padavoine> bye
[12:26] <thoreauputic> padavoine: so you won't affect anything unless you say so
[12:28] <CapeTown> (Feisty on A22p IBM laptop) xorg.conf - Section "Device", "Generic Video Card", ATI .... but the video adapter is an "ATI Rage Mobility M3 AGP 2x" in device manager. Question: How do I install the correct driver for this device?

[12:29] <crdlb> CapeTown, there's no driver to install
[12:29] <rambo3> !dma | amrnet

[12:30] <ubuntuish> Willbert, won't let me mount
[12:30] <ubuntuish> ntfs-3g i.e.,
[12:30] <Willbert> yep
[12:30] <Willbert> got that
[12:31] <rambo3> amrnet, same thing
[12:31] <Willbert> in windows does the hdd get recognised
[12:31] <Willbert> at all?
[12:31] <ubuntuish> nope not at all
[12:31] <ubuntuish> starts hanging the pc up
[12:31] <ubuntuish> i could access files on it before i installed ntfs-3g
[12:31] <amrnet> i got this error rambo3 BLKFLSBUF failed: Function not implemented
[12:31] <ubuntuish> but now it won't let me
[12:32] <Willbert> have you tried looking in computer management  on windows?
[12:32] <rambo3> amrnet,   type :  sudo hdparm /dev/hda
[12:32] <kraypius> ubuntuish, not a good sign
[12:32] <amrnet> ok rambo3 will try that too
[12:32] <ubuntuish> hmmm
[12:32] <ubuntuish> brb
[12:33] <amrnet> rambo3 ok it is already on thanx
[12:33] <loafybrwn> is there a way of saving only the files i want on my HD (media files like movies, pictures, music, ebooks) and wiping out the rest and start clean with ubuntu and retreiving those saved files?
[12:33] <CapeTown> crdlb : the display is 1600x1200 but the default install gives 800x600 or less! :-( I had to run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg" in order to give the xserver 1600x1200 an lower as options but 1280x1024 and 1024x800 give corrupted screen. So I only have 1600x1200 with minute screen text although very clear or 800x600 and can't see OK button at bottom of windows! :-(
[12:33] <sx66> how would you reinstall ubuntu?
[12:33] <kraypius> loaf, you will need to create a partition to store the data you want to backup
[12:34] <crdlb> CapeTown, the support for pre-radeon ati cards is poor unfortunately
[12:34] <crdlb> there's no chance of that changing either since the cards are so old
[12:35] <CapeTown> crdlb - where should I start looking for support of my A22p IBM laptop for hardware support in general?
[12:36] <sx66> how would you reinstall ubuntu?
[12:36] <rambo3> ubuntuforums
[12:36] <kraypius> sx66, pop in the cd and reboot
[12:36] <rambo3> CapeTown, i guess you'll have to tweak your xorg.conf . search your card on ubuntu forums
[12:38] <CapeTown> crdlb - Do you know how I can check if my built-in NIC is correctly configured? I have to use a PCMCIA NIC which works fine since the Intel "Ethernet Pro 100" does not appear configured automatically. :-(
[12:39] <crdlb> CapeTown, that should be fully supported by the e100 kernel module
[12:39] <rambo3> CapeTown, bad EEPROM

[12:43] <kraypius> no
[12:43] <familie> okay thanks a lot
[12:44] <familie> what is the savedefault for?
[12:44] <kraypius> i have no idea
[12:44] <ubuntuish> kraypius, i can probably access it again if i disable the ntfs but then how do i go about formating it or trying to fix it?
[12:44] <VoX> what program would i use to rip only the _sound_ from a dvd?
[12:45] <kraypius> what exactly did you do, from the birth of the partition until now?
[12:45] <familie> should i update grub now?
[12:45] <familie> i mean sudo grup-update
[12:45] <ubuntuish> kraypius, its a small internal laptop hdd which is connected to an enclosure i use it move data around from office -> home  and back
[12:46] <kraypius> familie, no. just save the file and reboot
[12:46] <kraut> moin
[12:46] <familie> okay thanks i will try it, have a nice day :)
[12:46] <kraypius> ;D
[12:46] <kraypius> ubuntuish, you want to recover any data from it b4 u go formatting it?
[12:47] <ubuntuish> yes
[12:47] <ubuntuish> or atleast try to
[12:47] <kraypius> and you arent able to access it from ubuntu or win?
[12:47] <ubuntuish> yup no access
[12:47] <nino> dvf
[12:47] <kraypius> was it mounting in ubuntu b4 when u start up?
[12:48] <kraypius> whats in your fstab
[12:48] <ubuntuish> yes it was mounting and i could access files too, i even did move a bit of the data
[12:48] <kraypius> oh
[12:48] <ubuntuish> just won't mount now since i've installed ntfs-3g
[12:48] <kraypius> try uninstalling ntfs-3g and remount
[12:49] <ubuntuish> right, hang on :p
[12:50] <rambo3> why?
[12:50] <kraypius> ban fatman
[12:51] <rambo3> you dont have to uninstall , just remount it with ntfs
[12:51] <ubuntuish> kraypius, yup mounted fine
[12:51] <kraypius> =P
[12:51] <kraypius> i recommend formatting it to fat32 instead of ntfs after u backup the data
[12:51] <thoreauputic> kraypius: what has fatman done to warrant a ban?
[12:52] <ubuntuish> i have another external hdd which ntfs-3g won't let me mount says its Dirty (though i can access it from windows just fine)
[12:52] <kraypius> fatman is a bot
[12:52] <kraypius> was trolling in #linux
[12:53] <c_> In the new Beryl they let you put Magic Lamps minium waves down to 0 again =D
[12:53] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> can gcc 4 and gcc3 co exist ?
[12:53] <sx66> on formatting back to ubuntu on ext3 media how do I set it up as a root file system?
[12:53] <fatman> Ubuntu linux is a piece of shit.
[12:53] <jrib> GreyGhost-Ubuntu: yes
[12:53] <jrib> !offtopic | fatman
[12:53] <ubotu> fatman: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:53] <crdlb> c_, you're using trevino's 0.3.0 packages?
[12:53] <c_> I am not sure, what ever was in the update.
[12:53] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu>  jrib ,should i simply apt-get install  gcc-3.4 then ?
[12:53] <crdlb> c_, beryl --version
[12:53] <kraypius> fatman will continue to post random insults about ubuntu
[12:53] <jrib> GreyGhost-Ubuntu: that will work
[12:53] <fatman> I don't care if this is a support channel, ubuntu linux is still a piece of shit.
[12:53] <kraypius> and then he will display an ad for his site
[12:54] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> jrib ,thanks :D
[12:54] <ubuntuish> kraypius, i have another external hdd which ntfs-3g won't let me mount says its Dirty (though i can access it from windows just fine)
[12:54] <c_> crdlb: beryl-core 0.3.0-svn
[12:54] <crdlb> c_, yep that's trevino's packages
[12:54] <kraypius> ubuntuish, its just more reliable at the moment to use fat32
[12:55] <c_> Why did the system update give it to me?
[12:55] <sx66> how do you reinstall ubuntu? I have three partititons. The sda3 is the old ubuntu, how do I re-install?
[12:55] <crdlb> c_, trevino removes that block
[12:55] <crdlb> c_, because you added the repository for it?
[12:55] <kraypius> for exchanging data between operating systems
[12:55] <ubuntuish> kraypius, its a 200GB hdd :/
[12:55] <ubuntuish> kraypius, oh well fun it will be!

Which drive is this? My Windows drive or what?

[01:30] <regebro> tuskernini: fdisk, I assume, the one that the installer uses.
[01:30] <slavik> tuskernini: rofl
[01:30] <fivetwentysix> blah569 then don't switch
[01:30] <slavik> regebro: use parted :)
[01:30] <viking09> G'day all. I have been looking for a one click, one screen one DVD Backup solution, does it exist? Google shows a a number of articles from 2006 and older..
[01:30] <regebro> slavik, OK, I'll try gparted, and try again.
[01:30] <tuskernini> regebro: Have you tried to start a live cd and do it with gparted...
[01:30] <blah569> I am thinking of partioning though.
[01:30] <jscinoz> What is the program used to change kernel options
[01:30] <slavik> blah569: install build-essential package, then install winefish, and all needed php5 stuff (just search for php in synaptic)
[01:31] <ubuntuish> slavik, thanks managed to do that, how do i format it to a normal fat32
[01:31] <slavik> jscinoz: your answer will be answered by a simple google search :)
[01:31] <jscinoz> tried couldnt find it
[01:31] <Frogzoo> jscinoz: you just need to update /boot/grub/menu.lst - the kopt line, then 'sudo update-grub'
[01:31] <jscinoz> thats not what i meant frogzoo
[01:31] <slavik> ubuntuish: use gparted ... it ahs the proper options :)
[01:32] <blah569> What is a good FTP for Linux?
[01:32] <ubuntuish> thanks a again, much appericiated
[01:32] <slavik> blah569: gftp
[01:32] <blah569> Thanks.  I will try that.
[01:32] <thoreauputic> blah569: nautilus can do ftp as a client too
[01:32] <slavik> blah569: search synaptic ... it has like 20000 different packages ...
[01:32] <thoreauputic> blah569: "connect to server"
[01:32] <blah569> Okay, thanks.
[01:33] <slavik> but gftp looks like cuteftp if you want that layout and such (nautilus will present it as a dir)
[01:33] <thoreauputic> there is also filezilla in feisty
[01:33] <thoreauputic> !info filezilla
[01:33] <ubotu> filezilla: Port of the famous Win32 graphical FTP client. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.0.0~beta7-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 763 kB, installed size 1980 kB
[01:33] <linuxboy> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UsingUUID doesn't exist
[01:33] <regebro> Well, parted did create the partitions at least. Now just hope that the installer want to use them. :-)
[01:33] <blah569> I use FileZila for Windows.
[01:33] <thoreauputic> blah569: see above then
[01:34] <slavik> regebro: make sure to set them to format and to set up proper mount points :)
[01:34] <rinky> I need a newer version of a package than is available from the dapper ubuntu repo's, can I just install a feisty deb on my dapper?
[01:34] <thoreauputic> blah569: it's in the universe repository
[01:34] <regebro> slavik: Sure.
[01:34] <slavik> rinky: I would reccomend against it
[01:35] <slavik> rinky: I would get the source, compile it and then use checkinstall ... or learn about the proper way to build debs :)
[01:35] <rinky> slavic, is the only other option to compile myself a package?
[01:35] <blah569> I'm currently making a Ubuntu disk.
[01:35] <rinky> building a deb, argh! I thought aptitude was meant to make my life easy... ;)
[01:35] <slavik> rinky: you could use the feisty version, but keep in mind that it is compiled against feisty and might depend on newer versions of libraries and such
[01:35] <petr4> hello. Would you recommend some voice communication program? Not skype. Must work through NAT.
[01:35] <rinky> only been using ubuntu a week and already i am having to make my own debs
[01:35] <blah569> What do you guys recommend for a C++ compiler for Ubuntu?
[01:36] <petr4> blah569: gcc
[01:36] <slavik> blah569: what have you been using to compile C++ on windows?
[01:36] <blah569> Dev-C++
[01:36] <slavik> petr4: g++ technically :P
[01:36] <rinky> slavik yeah I figured that, and I would not mind if apt-get would satisfy the dependancies fo me, but I know it wont
[01:36] <blah569> I know, it is pathetic.
[01:36] <blah569> lol
[01:36] <thoreauputic> blah569: install the "build-essential" package for compilers etc
[01:36] <slavik> blah569: you are already using gcc/g++
[01:37] <blah569> Ah, okay.  Thanks.
[01:37] <slavik> rinky: no it won't ... because it's a feisty package and package names could change and give you headaches
[01:37] <blah569> Is there an alternative DirectX for Linux?
[01:37] <slavik> rinky: you could ask the backports team to backport it
[01:37] <jscinoz> What is the GUI program used to configure the kernel post install
[01:37] <slavik> blah569: opengl, SDL
[01:37] <viking09> ehum, DVD backup solutions for Ubuntu?
[01:37] <Erich85> I was wondering if someone could help me-- Ubuntu constantly tells me that I cannot mount the volume, and this appears as Gnome error messages repeatedly, and they all stack up.  It's in reference to my CD-ROM drive, but I have no disk in it, and it says so even when one is.  How do I stop this error message from piling up?  It pops up every 30 seconds.
[01:37] <slavik> viking09: man dd
[01:37] <rinky> slavic, good idea, thanks
[01:38] <tom__> anyone played with virtualgl?
[01:38] <mike_> Greets, everyone...
[01:38] <jrib> viking09: dvdrip and thoggen are two
[01:39] <mike_> In the Restricted Drivers manager, it says the driver for my modem is enabled, but that it's not in use. How do I change it so that it *is* in use?
[01:39] <slavik> blah569: DirectX is a collection of libraries: Direct3D (OpenGL), DirectDraw (OpenGL, or SDL if you don't mind the performance hit), DirectSound (SDL_mixer), DirectInput (SDL has built in stuff that is good)
[01:39] <mike_> viking09: Looking for a good DVD ripper?
[01:39] <slavik> mike_: open network manager and enable it :)
[01:39] <blah569> Okay, thanks slavik.
[01:39] <esters> where can i get the ubuntu tango human icon theme ?
[01:39] <esters> not the default "human" , but the tango'ish version of human icon theme
[01:39] <viking09> mie:_ yes, was told 'dvdrip' and 'thoggen'
[01:40] <slavik> btw, blah569, stop being afraid and experiment with ubuntu ... just go around and click things ...
[01:40] <thoreauputic> esters: probably gnome-look.org
[01:40] <clouder`grr> anyone here use fluxbox?
[01:40] <thoreauputic> clouder`grr: yes
[01:40] <blah569> I'm on Windows right now though, slavik.
[01:40] <buffalo> good
[01:40] <slavik> clouder`grr: we don't run gentoo, sorry :P
[01:40] <esters> thoreauputic: i remember ubuntu default install has it
[01:40] <thoreauputic> slavik: hah
[01:40] <tom__> anyone used virtualgl?
[01:40] <slavik> blah569: that's a problem we need to fix ^^
[01:40] <mike_> viking09: K9Copy's the best one from my experience.
[01:40] <esters> can you check it thoreauputic ?
[01:40] <mike_> slavik: Thanks
[01:41] <thoreauputic> esters: umm...
[01:41] <clouder`grr> thoreauputic: I'm looking at the fluxbox docs, and I don't see anything about adjusting mouse speed, how do you make your mouse faster?
[01:41] <blah569> Lol, is everyone in here anti-Windows?
[01:41] <slavik> clouder`grr: you mean more sensative?
[01:41] <blah569> Well, I'd emagine.
[01:41] <mike_> slavik: But I'm actually using Kubuntu, figured I should just ask about restricted-manager in here since it's a GNOME app.
[01:41] <clouder`grr> slavik: yeah
[01:41] <thoreauputic> clouder`grr: ah, I think that would be an X thing - haven't tried it
[01:41] <slavik> blah569: we're not anti-windows but if you're not in ubuntu, how can you use it?
[01:42] <slavik> clouder`grr: search for that, or join the flux channel :)
[01:42] <blah569> I'm burning the iso image to a CD as we speak.
[01:42] <clouder`grr> I'm only anti vista
[01:42] <Erich85> I was wondering if someone could help me-- Ubuntu constantly tells me that I cannot mount the volume, and this appears as Gnome error messages repeatedly, and they all stack up.  It's in reference to my CD-ROM drive, but I have no disk in it, and it says so even when one is.  How do I stop this error message from piling up?  It pops up every 30 seconds.
[01:42] <slavik> blah569: good
[01:42] <blah569> Yeah, Vista has its problems
[01:42] <clouder`grr> slavik: ok thanks
[01:42] <slavik> I like the new start menu in vista ...
[01:42] <blah569> Me too, but it is insecure (As I've heard).
[01:42] <thoreauputic> guys, windows chatter in ##windows please
[01:42] <slavik> but not how you have o get to the options that were easy to get to in winxp, it seems as if vista is hiding them all
[01:42] <thoreauputic> !offtopic
[01:42] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!

[01:43] <mike_> slavik: You wouldn't know the CLI way for enabling the modem by any chance?
[01:43] <slavik> ROFL
[01:43] <thoreauputic> ;-)
[01:43] <vermoos> woop
[01:43] <regebro> slavik, tuskernini: OK, that seemed to work, thanks.
[01:43] <blah569> Lol, I love this place.  You guys use ! as "not."
[01:43] <slavik> mike_: the network manager thing in system -> admin -> network management
[01:43] <buffalo> long live the windows
[01:43] <mike_> slavik: I'm on KDE
[01:43] <slavik> blah569: it's a C thing (probably came from algol or something)
[01:44] <vermoos> newb question: after installing a tex ".sty" file, how do i get it on my latex path?
[01:44] <slavik> mike_: please ask in kubuntu
[01:44] <buffalo> windows
[01:44] <buffalo> windows
[01:44] <buffalo> windows
[01:44] <blah569> Yeah, but you guys are nerds like me (I assume all of you are nerds, but...)
[01:44] <buffalo> window
[01:44] <buffalo> windows
[01:44] <slavik> buffalo: please stop spamming
[01:44] <buffalo> windows
[01:44] <mike_> slavik: Sorry. I just figured I should ask about it in here since restricted-manager isn't in Kubuntu. I'll try my luck there, thanks. :-)
[01:44] <blah569> Thats a complament, btw... I like being called a "Nerd," even though I don't look like a nerd.
[01:44] <slavik> thoreauputic: thanks
[01:44] <SlimeyPete> 'm not a nerd! 'm a geek ;)
[01:45] <keith> does anyone know where gaim puts its log files?
[01:45] <blah569> Lol, I'm a php nerd/geek, w/e you want to call it.
[01:45] <SlimeyPete> (queue extremel nerdy conversation about the difference betwen nerd and geek)
[01:45] <mrsn0> keith /home/username/.gaim
[01:45] <slavik> keith: somewhere in ~/.gaim :)
[01:45] <SlimeyPete> erm, cue
[01:45] <mrsn0> btw should be really using pidgin now :)
[01:45] <keith> slavik: thanks :)
[01:45] <slavik> speaking of pidgin, I don't think the package is in the feisty repo
[01:45] <slavik> is it?
[01:46] <blah569> iso burn is done
[01:46] <slavik> blah569: fire that baby up, install and experiment ... you're young and in college ...
[01:46] <blah569> Lol, okay.  I've used it before.
[01:46] <mrsn0> slavik for feisty that is correct yes
[01:46] <blah569> I never installed it though, it never worked :(.
[01:46] <slavik> blah569: can you install windows?
[01:47] <blah569> Yes
[01:47] <slavik> blah569: then you can install ubuntu
[01:47] <blah569> Yeah
[01:47] <slavik> ubuntu is much easier to install than windows
[01:47] <blah569> would you recommend running Ubuntu from a extenral hard drive?
[01:47] <slavik> blah569: no
[01:47] <mrsn0> external e-sata would be fine but external usb hd are quite slow really
[01:47] <blah569> Brb then, I'm going to run Ubuntu.
[01:47] <mrsn0> so its not a great experience
[01:47] <Erich85> I was wondering if someone could help me-- Ubuntu constantly tells me that I cannot mount the volume, and this appears as Gnome error messages repeatedly, and they all stack up.  It's in reference to my CD-ROM drive, but I have no disk in it, and it says so even when one is.  How do I stop this error message from piling up?  It pops up every 30 seconds.
[01:48] <slavik> blah569: your external drive will do like 30MB/s sequential read ... it will kill ANY OS on there once it starts readinga t random
[01:48] <blah569> Okay, well brb.
[01:48] <slavik> mrsn0: is esata actually as fast as internal? (I ahhven't seen and performance numbers)
[01:49] <mrsn0> slavik its like having an internet sata drive, externallly :))
[01:49] <mrsn0> internal* sorry
[01:49] <mrsn0> so yea, throughput is no problem
[01:49] <slavik> so performance is same, that's nice
[01:49] <slavik> and I doubt blah has esata :P
[01:49] <viking09> Any serious resons why I should keep my XP partition? Anyone? Nope, there it goes. Whohoo.
[01:49] <mrsn0> prob with esata is the cable length, but for a hdd you would'nt have it 10meters away anyways
[01:50] <slavik> viking09: games?
[01:50] <viking09> Slavik: working on it.
[01:50] <slavik> mrsn0: I read an article on using carrier pidgeons for transfering packets across a mountain between to linux stations ^^
[01:51] <slavik> viking09: I also use winxp as my backup when something with my ubuntu config goes wrong and I am too lazy to fix it
[01:51] <hylje> slavik: IP over Carrier Pigeons
[01:51] <slavik> hylje: yeap
[01:52] <hylje> idea's good but packet loss hurts
[01:52] <slavik> hylje: it's not the packet loss, it's the extreme lag ...
[01:52] <mrsn0> slavik in ireland we use fibre to the cabinet and the last mile to the door is tin cans connected by string
[01:52] <slavik> mrsn0: the tin cans are from beer, aren't they?
[01:52] <mrsn0> and pringles ;)
[01:53] <hylje> pringles is for wifi
[01:53] <hylje> foo
[01:53] <mrsn0> indeed
[01:53] <slavik> mrsn0: didn't know the irish were pringles fans, also ... :P
[01:53] <mrsn0> :] 
[01:53] <slavik> rofl, hylje, you could also use a frying pan for it :)
[01:54] <Panda200x> http://wubuntu.weejewel.net/ ;)
[01:54] <slavik> Erich85: have you tried a google search?
[01:55] <mrsn0> haha nice Panda200x
[01:55] <slavik> wow, yes it is
[01:55] <mrsn0> Panda200x i tried to root it but cant open a terminal :p
[01:56] <Panda200x> xD
[01:56] <Panda200x> It was on Digg :P
[01:56] <Erich85> slavik: Yes, it hasn't yielded anything relevant.
[01:56] <mrsn0> looks nice, boots fast too :)
[01:56] <Panda200x> When it loads all the components, it says "Logging your IP (JK =P)"
[01:57] <Panda200x> :p
[01:57] <mrsn0> logging my isp cache \o
[01:57] <slavik> Erich85: try asking in ##linux and in #gnome ...
[01:57] <indon> !list
[01:57] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[01:57] <slavik> ubotu iss tupid :P
[01:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about iss tupid :p - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:57] <slavik> !botsnack
[01:57] <ubotu> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[01:58] <slavik> ROFL!!!
[01:58] <mrsn0> haha
[01:58] <Pupeno> I've installed kubuntu-dekstop... how do I get back the Ubuntu boot splash screen?
[01:58] <Erich85> slavik: Ah, the problem's in Ubuntu though.  But thanks.
[01:58] <Erich85> Also, can anyone tell me what the advantages and disadvantages would be for going from Ubuntu to Kubuntu?
[01:58] <slavik> Erich85: ##linux people could probably tell you what causes it and then we could figure out how to fix it :)
[01:58] <slavik> Erich85: it's KDE vs. Gnome :)
[01:58] <mrsn0> Erich85 none really, kde has features you may/may not like
[01:59] <mrsn0> why stop there, try as many desktops as you can (gnome kde xfce fluxbox e17 etc)
[01:59] <mrsn0> what works for some people doesn't for others
[01:59] <Panda200x> Enlightenment <3
[01:59] <slavik> e17 is not even beta afaik
[01:59] <Erich85> I just wish my NVidia graphics card would play nice with Ubuntu
[01:59] <drsys> ok guys i have a question ... i'm running ubuntu server is there any way i could port something like SElinux or apparmor on my server?
[01:59] <Erich85> Whenever I activate its driver, my GUI dies
[01:59] <slavik> Erich85: it should, check the binary howto
[01:59] <Erich85> So I cannot install Beryl or anything pretty.
[02:00] <Erich85> Binary howto, eh?  Where's that?
[02:00] <slavik> wiki.ubuntu.com
[02:00] <slavik> memorise that url
[02:00] <Erich85> I'm told my problem has to do with the "automount"
[02:01] <mrsn0> drsys try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AppArmor
[02:01] <Pupeno> Nobody knows how to choose between the Kubuntu and Ubuntu bootsplash?
[02:01] <mrsn0> selinux i haven't toyed iwth much yet
[02:02] <jrib> !usplash > Pupeno (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:02] <Pupeno> jrib: thanks.
[02:02] <ubuntuish> i r in l0ve with ubuntu
[02:02] <mrsn0> slavik indeed e17 needs built i believe to be tried out
[02:02] <mrsn0> but its a nice little exercise
[02:04] <LVKeulen> Hello?
[02:04] <mrsn0> hi
[02:05] <LVKeulen> I'm running VirtualBox on linux now, and I need to transfer stuff from Linux to Windows..
[02:05] <LVKeulen> Any way to do that?
[02:05] <Bruceouyang> hi,guys ,i have installed ubuntu 7.04 from harddisk using grub for dos.i pulled off my netwire(i dont how to say) because of network connection problem during installation .now the installation is complete.but i can not boot the system up in normal mode .so i switched to recovery mode.i edited the xorg.conf file and deleted all "1024x768" words and startx to login my ubuntu.but i found there...
[02:05] <Panda200x> Make an ISO?
[02:05] <Panda200x> :P
[02:05] <Bruceouyang> ...was no ethernet connection through ifconfig,i try to use hardware management tool to add my ethernet card in .but it give me a prompt saying no permission to access.any suggestions?thanks in advance.
[02:05] <Bruceouyang> my hardware lists:
[02:05] <Bruceouyang> CPU:AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3600+
[02:05] <Bruceouyang> Mainboard:RS690-SB600(AMD/ATI A69G)
[02:05] <Bruceouyang> Chipset:ATI 7910h
[02:05] <Bruceouyang> Video card:ATI Radeon X1200 Series
[02:05] <Bruceouyang> Network card:Realtek RTL8168/8111 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC
[02:06] <Panda200x> Paste-Bin would be nice
[02:06] <mrsn0> LVKeulen i haven't tried the 'share folders' option in virtualbox, maybe try that
[02:06] <LVKeulen> alright
[02:06] <jrib> !paste | Bruceouyang
[02:06] <ubotu> Bruceouyang: 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)
[02:06] <mrsn0> otherwise install openssh-server on your virtual linux, then use a client like winscp on xp to connect + copy files in a gui
[02:06] <LVKeulen> it works :D
[02:06] <LVKeulen> thanks
[02:06] <mrsn0> your welcome :)
[02:07] <Bruceouyang> ubotu,sorry for my rude action.i will do that.
[02:07] <LVKeulen> wait a second
[02:08] <mrsn0> Bruceouyang when you are dooing your pastebin, can you add the output of "sudo lsmod" and "sudo lspci" please to the end of the pastebin
[02:08] <LVKeulen> Where are the shared folders located after starting Virtualbox, anyway>
[02:08] <mrsn0> not sure LVKeulen , be sure to check the virtual box manual (which is very good)
[02:08] <larson9999> ok. this is driving me nuts. when i scroll up my mouse pops up the right click menu.  know what setting i change to stop that?
[02:09] <Bruceouyang> mrsn0,thanks,i will.
[02:09] <mrsn0> section 4.4 i believe
[02:09] <LVKeulen> okay then
[02:09] <Erich85> slavik: So, ##linux people tell me that hald is my problem.
[02:09] <slavik> larson9999: you most likely need to change your X config ... open xev and not the button events it gives when clicking mosue buttons and such
[02:09] <kane77> anybody uses pcsx? I have problem setting my controller to keyboard...
[02:09] <kelnoky> has anyone got the feeble files to work with scummvm?
[02:10] <slavik> Erich85: see? now we now what is it related to :P ... try to reinstall it with synaptic
[02:10] <slavik> kane77: I don't think pcsx allows that, try epsxe
[02:11] <slavik> when your text editor can play tetris and act as a chat client, it is not a text editor anymore ...
[02:11] <Erich85> OK slavik, brb, need to reboot.
[02:11] <kane77> slavik, there is a checkbox for allowing keyboard, but I don't know what to put for the device path...
[02:11] <slavik> kane77: check your xorg config, it should have the /dev path for keyboard :)
[02:13] <kane77> slavik, it doesnt :(
[02:13] <slavik> kane77: it should in the keyboard section ...
[02:13] <WeeJeWel> Is it possible to let a windows user connect to a XP installation while running linux on the same machine?
[02:13] <blah569> Hi, again.
[02:13] <slavik> hey, it doesn't
[02:14] <ubuntuEdgy> WeeJeWel: what
[02:14] <kane77> slavik, it has for mouse, but not for keyboard.. for keyboard there is only driver (kbd) and some other settings
[02:14] <slavik> blah569: grats, you are smarter than most of your 'hackz0r' friends ...
[02:14] <slavik> kane77: poke around /dev/input or soemthing ...
[02:14] <blah569> What?
[02:14] <WeeJeWel> hmm look, i got pc 1 with ubuntu & xp, ubuntu is running. pc 2 wants to login to xp
[02:15] <blah569> How am I smarter?  :P
[02:15] <logmein> WeeJeWel: you mean you want to run linux and have windows emulated with a user being able to login to it
[02:15] <slavik> WeeJeWel: only if you mount the windows drive and allow access through ubuntu (ssh or some such)
[02:15] <slavik> blah569: 'cause you use a unix like system :P
[02:15] <blah569> I'ma work on my forum software
[02:16] <logmein> WeeJeWel: yeah that's simple just use vmware, virtual box, or qemu and give it net access with a session of vnc or something
[02:16] <ubuntuEdgy> that makes more sense.
[02:16] <blah569> Lol, sorry I don't now what else to put here.
[02:16] <slavik> blah569: learn about installing apache with php and then install winefish
[02:16] <WeeJeWel> ut can i do it without having a virtual machine?
[02:16] <WeeJeWel> but*
[02:16] <slavik> WeeJeWel: no
[02:16] <WeeJeWel> ok thx :)
[02:16] <logmein> WeeJeWel: you can give them access just to the drive through ssh if you want
[02:16] <ubuntuEdgy> WeeJeWel:no you cant, because xp is not loaded lol
[02:16] <WeeJeWel> yeah, but i want the xp desktop
[02:16] <slavik> WeeJeWel: you want the non-booted system to act as a server of sorts?
[02:16] <blah569> I'm probably going to just use my same web host
[02:17] <WeeJeWel> i thought so, but maybe it was possible :P
[02:17] <WeeJeWel> yes slavik :P
[02:17] <slavik> blah569: it's good to have a local dev set up to test thigns on
[02:17] <blah569> Yeah
[02:17] <blah569> on Windows, I use WAMP>
[02:17] <slavik> blah569: on linux, you learn how to install things properly
[02:17] <logmein> can't he just emulate the windows partition?
[02:17] <ubuntuEdgy> WeeJeWel: install samba on the ubuntu pc
[02:17] <WeeJeWel> is that for files only or a graphical interface?
[02:17] <slavik> logmein: with vmware, or qemu or w/e the other thing is
[02:18] <blah569> Lol, you still have to install WAMP.
[02:18] <Erich85> slavik: Hurrah, reinstalling hald worked!
[02:18] <logmein> slavik ok
[02:18] <slavik> Erich85: :)
[02:18] <blah569> Hey, I used to use Logmein.
[02:18] <Erich85> slavik: You're some kind of crazy linux demigod.
[02:18] <slavik> Erich85: no, I am not, it also fixed my automounting issue :P
[02:18] <ubuntuEdgy> WeeJeWel: its for a little file server.
[02:19] <WeeJeWel> well ok, but i want the 2nd pc to have the files AND the interface like xp has
[02:19] <Erich85> slavik: So, whenever I've tried to install the nvidia drivers to do anything fancy with Ubuntu, my GUI dies and I end up having to do a clean reinstall.  Someone assured me that Envy would do all the shit for me, do you think it's worth giving a shot?  I've reinstalled 4 times just for this.  ;)
[02:19] <slavik> WeeJeWel: samba is for sharing file stuff with windows
[02:19] <logmein> blah569: nobody uses logmein
[02:19] <ubuntuEdgy> ohh why not install xp on the other pc
[02:19] <blah569> Lol, okay.
[02:19] <slavik> Erich85: why did you have to completely reinstall? just change the driver back inside to xorg.conf (back it up before doing anything)
[02:20] <blah569> The default theme for my forum software sucks :(.
[02:20] <slavik> Erich85: read the bianry driver howto on the ubuntu wiki page
[02:20] <slavik> blah569: we are not web devs :)
[02:20] <blah569> I am, lol.
[02:20] <Erich85> slavik: I still don't know where the heck the binary howto is.
[02:20] <slavik> blah569: then complain to yourself and fix it ...
[02:21] <m3nt0r> i tried to install php5.2.1 on drake6.06 via dpkg and now i have unmet dependcies. i tried the apt-get -f install, but that does not solve it and apt-get wants to remove php5. how can i stop that ? i want that version
[02:21] <fivetwentysix> how do i see my kernal version?
[02:21] <blah569> Its not a coding erorr, its a I don't have layout skill"z" error.
[02:21] <slavik> Erich85: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[02:21] <Erich85> slavik: You demigod you.
[02:21] <slavik> Erich85: it's called search ...
[02:21] <slavik> m3nt0r: that apckage might be a dummy version
[02:21] <ubuntuEdgy>  WeeJeWel: yoiu can still have the xp interface on ubuntu , just google gnome look
[02:21] <slavik> m3nt0r: I suggest using synaptic to fix things :)
[02:22] <m3nt0r> slavik: okay, i will try that.. but in general, whats the "apt way" to get that specific version ?
[02:22] <slavik> WeeJeWel: ubuntu is not a windows replacement, it is an Operating System
[02:22] <slavik> m3nt0r: I have no clue :P (I would if I didn't have synaptic)
[02:22] <blah569> Do you think ZarginBB sounds good?  (Its the name fo my forum software)
[02:23] <m3nt0r> heh
[02:23] <erUSUL> m3nt0r: i'm afraid that "abusing" the package system only results in broken systems...
[02:23] <WeeJeWel> slavik, i know. but my parents cant live without xp lol
[02:23] <slavik> I still don't get why people insist on using terminal for things that can be fixed in GUI (which is usually easier for many things because you can see more information at once)
[02:23] <WeeJeWel> i just want me be able to use ubuntu while my parents can access the same pc on pc
[02:23] <m3nt0r> erUSUL: is that abuse if i want a newer version of a software ?
[02:24] <slavik> WeeJeWel: what do your parents do?
[02:24] <ubuntuEdgy> m3nt0r: sudo apt-get install blah blah blah
[02:24] <WeeJeWel> using windows software
[02:24] <slavik> WeeJeWel: my mother knows no diff between windows and ubuntu, she finds firefox on either one and then she knows where the address bar is :)
[02:24] <m3nt0r> ubuntuEdgy: it says that 5.1.2 is the latest version and wont continue
[02:24] <slavik> WeeJeWel: like what?
[02:24] <WeeJeWel> lol
[02:24] <blah569> Wow.
[02:24] <WeeJeWel> arcgis
[02:24] <slavik> wtf is that?
[02:24] <WeeJeWel> lol
[02:25] <blah569> I just made my forum software turn 300 times better by turning the background color to black.
[02:25] <WeeJeWel> tools for creating maps
[02:25] <erUSUL> m3nt0r: yes if the version you want it's not aviable in the distribution you use... you should use apt (and front ends) to install software and never "force" thing unless you know what you are doing
[02:25] <ubuntuEdgy> m3nt0r: then it must be
[02:25] <slavik> tell them the company did not release specs for their proprietery format and they went under ...
[02:25] <efrancolaporte> hey i have an .avi file that freezes after it goes past 39mins, anything i can do to fix it?
[02:25] <slavik> WeeJeWel: then you want to look into wine :)
[02:26] <WeeJeWel> its too complicated to emulate lol
[02:26] <defrysk> efrancolaporte, get a proper avi-file ?
[02:26] <slavik> efrancolaporte: re-encoding probably to fix the indices and such (not sure if it will work though)
[02:26] <WeeJeWel> the software costs about $5000, so its not an easy gui
[02:26] <efrancolaporte> slavik i cant reencode it its an original
[02:26] <slavik> efrancolaporte: you have the video and audio, what else do you need?
[02:26] <Spee_Der> Ok. A little help with the make command please. I have completed the ./configure for the program and it cleared. Now I use make and the error message is  *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
[02:27] <slavik> re-encode the one you have with same settings ...
[02:27] <ubuntuEdgy>  WeeJeWel: install xp on the other pc, then you wont have to worry about it
[02:27] <efrancolaporte> slavik.... i have video and audio for the first 39mins
[02:27] <efrancolaporte> after that image and sound freezes
[02:27] <WeeJeWel> it is already there, but theyre complaining about the files lol
[02:27] <efrancolaporte> and CPU is being used to 100%
[02:27] <WeeJeWel> theyre weird, i know =P
[02:27] <slavik> efrancolaporte: you have the file, right?
[02:27] <efrancolaporte> ya
[02:27] <slavik> so, what's the problem?
[02:27] <defrysk> efrancolaporte, it means the avi-file is corrupted
[02:28] <efrancolaporte> defrysk, any way to uncorrupt it?
[02:28] <WeeJeWel> spee_der, what program?
[02:28] <slavik> WeeJeWel: tell them to go where bill gates lives (hell) :P (seriously though, don't)
[02:28] <hwilde> anybody else have software crash at 7:35am on sunday mornings only?
[02:28] <ubuntuEdgy> WeeJeWel: do this , install samba on you first pc. and move the files to ubuntu
[02:28] <defrysk> efrancolaporte, try to run it on another player, vlc or mplayer maybe it will accept the flaw
[02:28] <efrancolaporte> vlc doesnt :(
[02:28] <slavik> WeeJeWel: tell them that if Linux is good enough for google and yahoo and ibm and hp, it's good enough for them
[02:28] <Spee_Der> WeeJeWel, I am trying to create the gpredict-0.8.0 program. On Dapper Drake with latest kernel.
[02:29] <WeeJeWel> ubuntuEdgy, thats the problem.. they just want what theyre used to
[02:29] <slavik> Spee_Der: does the configure script error out?
[02:29] <slavik> WeeJeWel: tell them you don't support windows anymore :P
[02:29] <Hadron> anyone here using picasa under feisty?
[02:29] <Spee_Der> slavik, the ./configure completes fine.
[02:29] <defrysk> efrancolaporte, install ffmpeg and reencode it : ffmpeg -i blah.avi blah2.avi
[02:29] <ubuntuEdgy> WeeJeWel: your not understanding me. they will still have what they are used to
[02:30] <slavik> WeeJeWel: have you tried wine?
[02:30] <ubuntuEdgy> WeeJeWel: only diffrece is the files will be coming from ubuntu not xp
[02:30] <ubuntuEdgy> difference*

[02:35] <LVKeulen> there is
[02:35] <slavik> WeeJeWel: system -> prefs -> screensaver
[02:35] <efrancolaporte> defrysk: is there a way i can tell ffmpeg to only start encoding the avi from a certain time inside
[02:35] <novato_br> which, LVKeulen ?
[02:35] <WeeJeWel> i cant change anything there ;P
[02:35] <ubuntuEdgy> ufuk_k:sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[02:35] <slavik> novato_br: gparted is one
[02:36] <efrancolaporte> i.e if i only wanted to encode the avi sarting at time 2400 seconds
[02:36] <LVKeulen> but..
[02:36] <slavik> efrancolaporte: no, you can't
[02:36] <novato_br> but is it delete my informations ?
[02:36] <Asathoor> how can I set up a webcam - Ubuntu cannot use /dev/video0
[02:36] <slavik> novato_br: probably
[02:36] <LVKeulen> my virtual machine will not read my USB, because i'm not permitted to
[02:36] <novato_br> i don't want lose my data
[02:36] <defrysk> efrancolaporte, i dont know sorry
[02:36] <novato_br> I've been try the patition magic
[02:36] <efrancolaporte> slavik thanks for info, it's a shame but it's something that should be added! lol
[02:36] <WeeJeWel> novato_br, you got unallocated space?
[02:37] <WeeJeWel> dont use partition magic, EVER!!
[02:37] <novato_br> but it is working with EXT3
[02:37] <elkbuntu> novato_br, gparted
[02:37] <ufuk_k> ubuntuEdgy, i made some wrong commands like :ln -fs /usr/lib/libGL.so.$VER /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so
[02:37] <LVKeulen> WeeJeWel
[02:37] <LVKeulen> Why not?
[02:37] <LVKeulen> I did so.
[02:37] <slavik> efrancolaporte: no ... just no ...
[02:37] <LVKeulen> is it that bad?
[02:37] <WeeJeWel> it WILL fuck up grub
[02:37] <novato_br> WeeJeWel,
[02:37] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, but they were for nvidia :(
[02:37] <Asathoor> partitions: use knoppix...
[02:37] <WeeJeWel> it did for my, i had to reinstall ubuntu
[02:37] <efrancolaporte> WeeJeWel, partition magic actually works for me much better than gedit
[02:37] <novato_br> my ext3 partition is smaller
[02:37] <efrancolaporte> soryr
[02:37] <elkbuntu> WeeJeWel, please mind your language, this is a family-friendly channel
[02:37] <efrancolaporte> than gparted

[02:37] <slavik> efrancolaporte: what can gedit do that partition magic does?
[02:37] <novato_br> i'd like to resize

[02:38] <WeeJeWel> are you using grub?
[02:38] <novato_br> yep
[02:38] <slavik> efrancolaporte: you have to marry it now
[02:38] <ubuntuEdgy> ufuk_k: ok remove all the other drives and start from scratch.
[02:38] <WeeJeWel> i wouldnt try, seriously
[02:38] <novato_br> partition magic is great
[02:38] <efrancolaporte> slavik: i wish it was that easy for me to get married :-P
[02:38] <WeeJeWel> somehow it made my ext3 partition unknown
[02:39] <novato_br> but the partition magic doesn't resize EXT3 partition

[02:41] <novato_br> why, WeeJeWel ?
[02:41] <WeeJeWel> you said so
[02:41] <novato_br> what can I do ?
[02:41] <WeeJeWel> use gparted
[02:41] <WeeJeWel> make some free space and then resize your ext3
[02:41] <efrancolaporte> fuck ffmpeg failed to encode at like time 2370something
[02:42] <minimec> Hi folks. is there a affinity user out there? I installed the affinitysvn with the beagle plugin. When i start affinity on a console, it marks 'Desktop Search Engine : Tracker'. Where can I change that to beagle?

[02:42] <slavik> efrancolaporte: corrupt file :)
[02:42] <slavik> efrancolaporte: maybe it's cut off at the end
[02:42] <ubuntuEdgy> ufuk_k: sudo dpkg-divert --remove /usr/lib/libGL.so.1
[02:42] <novato_br> but is it secure, WeeJeWel ?
[02:42] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, my card was working nice, but i tried something and changed prelinks
[02:42] <WeeJeWel> yes
[02:42] <novato_br> will not I loose my data with gparted?
[02:42] <WeeJeWel> i did it many times :-)
[02:42] <novato_br> ok
[02:42] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, but now glinfo cant find this libs cuz the method was for nvidia
[02:42] <novato_br> i'll try
[02:42] <efrancolaporte> slavik.... any way I could make an avi of the time after the corrupt section, perhaps looking a bit of the movie but skipping the corrupt part?
[02:42] <WeeJeWel> not if the partition is getting bigger
[02:42] <larson9999> hmmm, using xev shows that even though my mouse buttons seem to be mapped correctly, when scrolling up, button 3 is sent after button 4.
[02:43] <efrancolaporte> *loosing
[02:43] <WeeJeWel> ofcourse you'd backup your files :)
[02:43] <Frogzoo> anything I can do if vmware won't start because it thinks something is using the vm image? (no other vm running)

[02:44] <efrancolaporte> slavik.... any way I could make an avi of the time after the corrupt section, perhaps loosing a bit of the movie but skipping the corrupt part?
[02:45] <ubuntuEdgy>  ufuk_k: ok great ,give me a sec please
[02:45] <novato_br> First Partition :[ NFTS + FREE SPACE 7GB  ]    Second Partition: [ EXT3 + FREE SPACE  800MB] 
[02:45] <Frogzoo> larson9999: that button 3 maybe just means you're depressing the middle mouse button while scrolling
[02:45] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, of course thank you
[02:45] <slavik> efrancolaporte: the thing is, the avi file might not contain ANYTHING after the 'freezing part'
[02:45] <novato_br> i get FREE SPACE of ntfs partition
[02:45] <WeeJeWel> !qtparted
[02:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about qtparted - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:45] <slavik> meaning it was cut short
[02:45] <LVKeulen> can anyone help?
[02:45] <LVKeulen> Really?
[02:45] <WeeJeWel> !QtParted
[02:45] <novato_br> thx, WeeJeWel
[02:45] <larson9999> Frogzoo: i figured that but xev shows that pressing the wheel maps to button 2 not 3.
[02:45] <efrancolaporte> slavik i doubt it, the file is 890.3 megs and even ffmpeg detected it at 1:33min long
[02:46] <WeeJeWel> Description: QTParted is a Partition Magic clone written in C++ using the Qt toolkit.

[02:47] <ubuntuEdgy>  ufuk_k: sudo dpkg-divert --remove /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libGLcore.so
[02:47] <slavik> efrancolaporte: the filespace could've been preallocated (bt clients can do that)
[02:47] <efrancolaporte> isnt there a way for me to try anyway?
[02:47] <Frogzoo> larson9999: in /etc/X11/xorg.conf - set Option          "ButtonMapping" "1 2 3 6 7"   as appropriate

[02:50] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, with a special command?
[02:51] <sahil> i found a few that are DECENT, i want some more intense stuff
[02:51] <Paddy_EIRE> !fonts | Paddy_EIRE
[02:51] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy,  or just by searching?
[02:51] <ebees> sahil: do you mean like Quake or something along those lines?
[02:51] <Frogzoo> sahil: check in synaptic under games

[02:54] <LVKeulen> hmm
[02:54] <LVKeulen> never tried it
[02:54] <hwilde> !sudo | LVKeulen
[02:54] <ubotu> LVKeulen: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[02:54] <WeeJeWel> sudo VBox or something
[02:54] <LVKeulen> alright
[02:54] <WeeJeWel> never logged in as root?

[02:56] <sergiu> any1 knows how to hide the icons on the desktop(computer,trash, home floder)?
[02:56] <ebees> kkd: like what?
[02:56] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, sorry /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions
[02:56] <jmitchj> omha: so i have to log back in under 2.6.20-16 to try this right?
[02:56] <omha> jmitchj, yes
[02:57] <kkd> thanks.  i am presently at home connected to a microsoft home network ' 3 computers connected through a router and an internet connection'
[02:57] <jmitchj> omha: are there settings that 20-16 would have changed somewhere that i have to change back to 20-15?
[02:57] <ebees> kkd: okay
[02:57] <kkd> my computer is running ubuntu presently and what i am trying to do is
[02:58] <AzMoo> Why the hell do my hard-drive device names keep changing every time there's a kernel upgrade? It's annoying the hell out of me.
[02:58] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, how can i find where it points to, the file is very weird.it is in /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions
[02:58] <kkd> i have a shared drive in the places on the top menu called f:  'smb f'
[02:58] <chrisjs169|sleep> can someone explain what 'svn: relocation error: svn: undefined symbol: svn_ra_initialize' means?
[02:58] <sergiu> any1 knows how to hide the icons on the desktop(computer,trash, home floder)?
[02:58] <LVKeulen> WeeJeWel, did you read my MSG thingies?
[02:58] <WeeJeWel> MSG thingies?
[02:58] <LVKeulen> My MSG's
[02:59] <c_> Some how I set it to drives don't appear on my Desktop. How do I change what defaulty appears on my desktop?
[02:59] <jmitchj> omha: i'll give those a try
[02:59] <WeeJeWel> which ones?
[02:59] <orbin> sergiu: run gconf-editor
[02:59] <LVKeulen> well
[02:59] <LVKeulen> I'm trying to find the folder where the app is located
[02:59] <kkd> my software such as azureus doesnt seem to recognize this drive . is there a way to make it recognizable by other software
[02:59] <ubuntuEdgy>  ufuk_k: look at its "properties"
[02:59] <LVKeulen> Can't find it though
[02:59] <novato_br> http://www.cjb.net/images.html?f8a7e.png
[02:59] <WeeJeWel> do you have a shortcut to it?
[02:59] <LVKeulen> I don't
[02:59] <LVKeulen> Well
[02:59] <WeeJeWel> mk
[02:59] <LVKeulen> one in the applications menu
[02:59] <WeeJeWel> :)
[03:00] <WeeJeWel> right click it and select properties
[03:00] <orbin> then navigate to the checkboxes in /apps/nautilus/desktop/
[03:00] <sergiu> k
[03:00] <LVKeulen> Alright
[03:00] <LVKeulen> In t he properties now
[03:00] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, yes i looked but i dont understand
[03:00] <WeeJeWel> what does action: says?
[03:00] <LVKeulen> command is VirtualBox
[03:00] <sergiu> ok, now i see
[03:00] <WeeJeWel> ok
[03:00] <LVKeulen> I'll try that
[03:00] <LVKeulen> sudo VirtualBox?
[03:00] <WeeJeWel> so go to terminal and type sudo virtualbox
[03:00] <WeeJeWel> ya
[03:00] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, nothing in properties
[03:00] <sergiu> thank u orbin
[03:01] <orbin> sergiu: sure
[03:01] <WeeJeWel> *dont forget uppercases
[03:01] <LVKeulen> The winbox is running now
[03:01] <LVKeulen> and..
[03:01] <WeeJeWel> ok :-)
[03:01] <ebees> kkd: why do you want azureus to notice this drive?
[03:01] <LVKeulen> and....
[03:01] <LVKeulen> and it worked! :D
[03:01] <LVKeulen> It reads my USB
[03:01] <WeeJeWel> yippie :)
[03:01] <LVKeulen> Thanks :)
[03:01] <ubuntuEdgy> ufuk_k: ok lets move on.
[03:01] <WeeJeWel> youre welcome :)
[03:01] <c_> No one knows how I can fix it?
[03:01] <WeeJeWel> you might wanna change your shortcut now
[03:02] <wlwireless> does ubuntu violates any of the 235 M$ patents?
[03:02] <WeeJeWel> so you dont have to use terminal every time
[03:02] <LVKeulen> let's do that, yes
[03:02] <LVKeulen> thanks
[03:02] <sciboy> hwilde, Nope font packages are still there.
[03:02] <WeeJeWel> :)
[03:02] <IdleOne> wlwireless, nat as far as I know of
[03:02] <sciboy> hwilde, The problem is more specific since no other "application" appears to be affected.
[03:03] <IdleOne> wlwireless, that is a topic better suited for #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:03] <ubuntuEdgy> sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:04] <wlwireless> IdleOne: didn't there is such channel.
[03:04] <LVKeulen> Agh.. stupid windows..
[03:04] <LVKeulen> Now it reads my USB
[03:04] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, allright but i think it has nothing to do with xorg.conf
[03:04] <LVKeulen> But fails to install a driver
[03:04] <kkd> i want it to read the torrents that i started to download under windows
[03:04] <IdleOne> wlwireless, yes there is try joining it
[03:04] <WeeJeWel> omg :P
[03:04] <WeeJeWel> what does it say?
[03:04] <LVKeulen> well..
[03:04] <LVKeulen> I have dutch windows
[03:04] <WeeJeWel> i am dutch
[03:04] <WeeJeWel> :P
[03:04] <LVKeulen> Doh
[03:04] <WeeJeWel> weejewel? :P
[03:05] <LVKeulen> 'Dit apparaat kan niet worden gebruikt etcetc windoos'
[03:05] <kkd> ebees:  i want it to read the torrents that i started to download under windows
[03:05] <WeeJeWel> nothing more?
[03:05] <LVKeulen> well
[03:05] <LVKeulen> at the system > hardware tab
[03:05] <tanlaan> Hello everyone.
[03:05] <LVKeulen> it says ' USB-apparaat voor massa opslag'
[03:05] <ebees> kkd: I see. I'm afraid I can't think of a simple answer. I'd suggest a quick check of ubuntuforms.org unless someone can provide a simple solution here.
[03:05] <WeeJeWel> what is it for device anyway?
[03:05] <LVKeulen> An USB
[03:05] <LVKeulen> stick
[03:06] <WeeJeWel> ok
[03:06] <tanlaan> I have some questions about the use of bittorrent.
[03:06] <WeeJeWel> why not mount it in linux and make it a HD in windows?
[03:06] <LVKeulen> There's also a category 'Overige apparaten'  containing 'Base System-apparaat' and 'Videocontroller (VGA-compatibel)'
[03:06] <LVKeulen> Hmm..
[03:06] <Kim^J> Which package do I need to program Ruby and use Gstreamer0.10?
[03:06] <ebees> I'd say that the permissions on the drive require setting. If you've got ntfs on the windows drives, you'll also have to check the repos (can't remember the name) for an app that lets you write to ntfs.
[03:06] <WeeJeWel> the usb stick is alright
[03:06] <WeeJeWel> reinstall driver and select the driver files?
[03:06] <kkd> ebees: is there an easy way to share folders between computers in a home networking ?
[03:06] <WeeJeWel> i suppose you got some
[03:07] <orbin> tanlaan: ubuntu related of course :)
[03:07] <erUSUL> !samba
[03:07] <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
[03:07] <ubuntuEdgy>  ufuk_k: what do you think it is
[03:08] <ebees> kkd: samba is your friend :) The issue you need to overcome is WHERE you're saving the file. This is why I would check the forum first. There you go: ubotu has give you a link
[03:08] <ubuntuEdgy> also what driver dose xorg point to
[03:08] <tanlaan> orbin: of course, I am using ubuntu :D
[03:08] <kkd> ebees: thank you
[03:08] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, i accidentally changed the links for libGL.so.1 libraries then it stopped working everything messed up
[03:08] <laurent__> Back
[03:09] <laurent__> connection problem
[03:09] <shawn34> I have a laptop(wireless) and a pc(wired). I want to share files between them. I set up shared folders using the gui in system>admin. but i don't know what to do from there. when I goto places>network I don't see anything on either pc. can anyone help me out with this?
[03:09] <ebees> kkd: no probs. If you do a bit of reading, you'll find (on the ubuntuforum) that there are a lot of people who have probably listed an easy way to do it.
[03:09] <laurent__> What I was asking before it stopped connecting
[03:09] <laurent__> How do I mount a drive in Linux and make it a harddrive in windows?
[03:09] <ubuntuEdgy> ufuk_k: find libGL.so.1
[03:09] <tanlaan> I just wanna know, if you download a torrent to it's max, does the download section switch over to seeding automatically? *there are no markings showing that it has, but i am at 100% on one and it is still downloading...*
[03:09] <tanlaan> and if not how do I seed a torrent?
[03:10] <ubuntuEdgy> ufuk_k: should bi in user/lib
[03:10] <Panda200x> Its automatic
[03:10] <shawn34> anyone?
[03:10] <WeeJeWel> shawn, did you added the laptop name?
[03:10] <laurent__> hmm
[03:11] <ebees> kkd: check this post - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=468640&highlight=share+windows+drive
[03:11] <jmitchj> omha: that didn't make a difference
[03:11] <shawn34> WeeJeWel, i added the internal ip address instead of the name, 192.168.1.104
[03:11] <ebees> kkd particularly the comments by 'dmizer' - he seems to have created a 'how to'
[03:11] <WeeJeWel> hmm k
[03:11] <shawn34> WeeJeWel, thats the laptop
[03:11] <mIgUeL_sAn> hi to all
[03:11] <mIgUeL_sAn> i got a question

[03:12] <laurent__> Well..
[03:12] <laurent__> It is now..
[03:12] <larson9999> Frogzoo: thanks for the help.  the issue was the protocol. changed from IMPS/2 to explorerps/2 and all is well. i have a basic 2 button wheeled ge optical mouse.  found an old thread that said to change the protocol.
[03:12] <shawn34> WeeJeWel, they both run feisty too
[03:13] <mIgUeL_sAn> i've just installed a new hardware, how would i detect the new hardware so what i won't have to reinstall my ubuntu again
[03:13] <laurent__> Let me check it.. windows stole it
[03:13] <WeeJeWel> it shold be alright i think
[03:13] <WeeJeWel> should*
[03:13] <ebees> kkd: just checking to make sure you can access the URL i posted? :)
[03:13] <WeeJeWel> i dont know that much about sharing folders..
[03:13] <orbin> mIgUeL_sAn: what is it?

[03:14] <shawn34> Anyone else? The forums are full of howto's to share between windows and ubuntu, but i have 2 ubuntu pc's.... how can I share between them?
[03:14] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, no libGL.so.1 in usr/lib
[03:14] <mIgUeL_sAn> orbin: by the way i was using a ubuntu 5.04
[03:14] <larson9999> Frogzoo: iirc i fixed this about 2 years ago.  when applying the recent kernel update it must have unfixed it for me.
[03:14] <jmitchj> omha: any other ideas on what changes 20-16 may have made to break my wireless?
[03:14] <ubuntu_> a quick question
[03:15] <ubuntu_> how do i instruct the live-cd to not load the sata_mv driver?

[03:17] <laurent__> it's FAT16
[03:17] <orbin> mIgUeL_sAn: i'd try it.
[03:17] <killercow> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SELinux
[03:17] <mIgUeL_sAn> orbin: well can u pls help me figure it out if ubuntu 7.04 can support the PIII 500mhz, 128MB SDRAM, 8MB VGA, 15MB HD
[03:18] <killercow> mIgUeL_sAn: it might, but your a bit low on ram
[03:18] <orbin> mIgUeL_sAn: 15MB?
[03:18] <killercow> mIgUeL_sAn:  id go for xubuntu instead
[03:18] <drsys> killercow: response .....   E: Invalid operation selinux
[03:18] <laurent__> damnit.
[03:18] <laurent__> Why does windows read my USB normally, but doesn't read when in virtual machine.
[03:18] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, points to /usr/lib/libGL.so
[03:19] <mIgUeL_sAn> orbin: 15MB Hard drive
[03:19] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, and libGL.so points to libGL.so.1
[03:19] <mIgUeL_sAn> killercow: i haven't try that one xubuntu...
[03:19] <ubuntuEdgy> ufuk_k: lets try and remove that link, do you know hot ?
[03:19] <killercow> xubuntu is lighter on resources
[03:19] <killercow> looks about the same
[03:19] <larson9999> mIgUeL_sAn: i run ubuntu on a p3 700mhz and it's fine.  but xfce is a better choice imho.
[03:20] <orbin> mIgUeL_sAn: would not think you could run /any/ ubuntu flavour with that much space
[03:20] <tanlaan> Anyone know of a good Torrent downloader that I could go download and just continue to seed the torrents I just downloaded *very confused on how bittorrent works under linux*
[03:20] <ubuntuEdgy>  ufuk_k: ok great
[03:20] <killercow> does anyone know how to exclude a particular driver from the live-cd boot?
[03:20] <killercow> tanlaan:  opera? or ktorrent?
[03:20] <orbin> mIgUeL_sAn: unless you meant GB
[03:20] <larson9999> oh, wait 15mb?
[03:20] <kkd> what is the easiest way to edit the fstab file and how to have the root privilege to do it ?
[03:20] <mIgUeL_sAn> larson9999: what ubuntu version u were using??
[03:20] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, do you want me to delete libGL.so files?
[03:20] <killercow> tanlaan: just leave the current gnome torrent window open and it will keep seeding
[03:20] <mIgUeL_sAn> orbin: ohhhhhhhhhhh jezzzzzzz man..... yeah....... its GB argh... sorry
[03:20] <larson9999> mIgUeL_sAn: 7.04.  i always upgrade when new versions come out.
[03:21] <killercow> kkd:  gksudo  gedit /etc/fstab
[03:21] <ubuntuEdgy> ufuk_k: not yet.
[03:21] <orbin> mIgUeL_sAn: :)
[03:21] <ubuntuEdgy> ufuk_k:  lets first try and remove the links
[03:21] <tanlaan> killercow: Wait, So it does continue to seed? Even though it continues to say "downloading" instead of uploading?
[03:21] <ubuntuEdgy> and if we fail then delete them
[03:21] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, you want to learn something
[03:21] <mIgUeL_sAn> larson9999: uhmmmmmmm how about ur VGA? is it fine?
[03:22] <mIgUeL_sAn> larson9999: what's ur VGA specs..
[03:22] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, before i messed up things i made this command: ln -fs /usr/lib/libGL.so.$VER /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so
[03:22] <ubuntuEdgy> ufuk_k: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
[03:22] <larson9999> mIgUeL_sAn: everything is fine.  i'm not sure what the graphics card is. it's nvidia and it needs the legacy driver.
[03:22] <mIgUeL_sAn> orbin: i'm confused... i dont know what version should i install.. because installing a new one would take a lot of time
[03:22] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedy, and 2 commands more like this one
[03:22] <mandh> problem with ssl to encrypt file that size more than one giaa
[03:23] <kkd> killercow: thank you working fine.
[03:23] <mandh> than one giga
[03:23] <ubuntuEdgy> /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so try this ln rm /usr/lib/libGL.so.$VER /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so
[03:23] <mIgUeL_sAn> larson9999: my VGA is 8mb only so i have no idea what would it be if i use ubuntu 7.04
[03:23] <ubuntuEdgy> oops
[03:23] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, and this commands for nvidia config in Archlinux
[03:24] <mIgUeL_sAn> orbin: what do u think on my hardware? and what version on ubuntu wuold i use?
[03:24] <larson9999> mIgUeL_sAn: me either. i think all of my cards are at least 32mb these days.
[03:24] <orbin> mIgUeL_sAn: not sure really.  i've never had to run a system that slow.  i''d go xubuntu myself just to play it safe.
[03:24] <ubuntuEdgy>  ufuk_k: try this "ln rm /usr/lib/libGL.so.$VER /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so"
[03:24] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so' is not a directory
[03:25] <ubuntuEdgy> if not try this sudo dpkg-divert --remove /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so
[03:25] <ufuk_k> command wrong
[03:25] <ubuntuEdgy> that ^^
[03:25] <damien_> damien
[03:25] <larson9999> mIgUeL_sAn: you want to install xubuntu if you install ubuntu.  i'm nearly certain about that.
[03:25] <ubuntuEdgy> "cd  /usr/X11R6/lib/" what dose it say
[03:26] <shawn34> can someone help me with this: "mount: 192.168.1.104:/home/shawn/shared-laptop failed, reason given by server: Permission denied"

[03:27] <kuartoskuro> hi all from spain
[03:27] <samuel> thx
[03:27] <laurent__> Hello?
[03:27] <mIgUeL_sAn> larson9999: i'm planning to install xubuntu, but.... is there any different between the ubuntu and xubuntu, would my OS run as ubuntu even if i was using xubuntu?
[03:27] <mirza> hay
[03:27] <rohan> what the hell is ubuntu upto ? in a STABLE release, the developers first enable libata, and then disable it, and then again enable it. is this some kind of a joke ?
[03:27] <mIgUeL_sAn> larson9999: i'm planning to install xubuntu, but.... is there any difference between the ubuntu and xubuntu, would my OS run as ubuntu even if i was using xubuntu?
[03:28] <laurent__> My USB isn't being read by my Windows XP Virtual machine... It says that the driver can't be installed. What now?
[03:28] <Smygis> mIgUeL_sAn, xubuntu is nice
[03:28] <Mark_> hey i need some help with permissions
[03:28] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, i go to that directory and i used" ls" command
[03:28] <mirza> ubuntu ist d best
[03:28] <mIgUeL_sAn> Smygis: is it the same as ubuntu?? im confused
[03:28] <Gnea> laurent__: make sure any linux driver is not installed
[03:28] <larson9999> mIgUeL_sAn: yeah.  the only difference really is that ubuntu has a different distro for nealy every wm/de practically.  use can pick one and then install other wms.
[03:28] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, libGL.so  libGL.so.1  X11
[03:28] <ufuk_k> they are in the folder
[03:29] <mirza> hi
[03:29] <laurent__> Gnea: What do you mean by that?
[03:29] <mirza> hay
[03:29] <shawn34> can someone help me with this: "mount: 192.168.1.104:/home/shawn/shared-laptop failed, reason given by server: Permission denied"
[03:29] <Smygis> mIgUeL_sAn, Other GUI and other apps, Otherwise they are the same.
[03:30] <ubuntuEdgy> shawn34: try ssh
[03:30] <ubuntuEdgy> or nautilus
[03:30] <Gnea> laurent__: if you plug a usb device in, linux will load a driver for it, preventing vmware/qemu from being able to load it to windows. unload the driver that linux loads and winxp will see it
[03:30] <laurent__> Wait..
[03:30] <laurent__> Gnea: It's working now.. without reason.
[03:30] <Gnea> there is no wait, only do.
[03:30] <Gnea> :)
[03:30] <laurent__> Damn windows
[03:30] <laurent__> Just reconnected it..
[03:30] <ubuntuEdgy> shawn34: or places >conect to a server

[03:30] <Gnea> !language | laurent__
[03:30] <ubotu> laurent__: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[03:31] <laurent__> then it worked
[03:31] <shawn34> ubuntuEdgy:  ? how. the shared folders on both ubuntu pc's are set up right
[03:31] <laurent__> Oh
[03:31] <ubuntuEdgy> ufuk_k: we need to remove the symlincs
[03:31] <laurent__> Sorry :|
[03:31] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, YES
[03:31] <ufuk_k> ubuntuedgy, bu how can we do it in correct way?
[03:31] <mIgUeL_sAn> Smygis: if u would tell me that if the difference is the GUI in ubuntu is good rather than xubuntu... i'd rather use xubuntu, i dont care if my desktop sucks, my computer is too slow... slow as the turtle for these days
[03:32] <ubuntuEdgy> ufuk_k: try these commands
[03:33] <novato_br> what's the software to burn DVD and CD ?
[03:33] <CheshireViking> is there a ".rar" password recovery package for ubuntu/linux?
[03:33] <ubuntuEdgy> sudo dpkg-divert --remove /usr/lib/libGL.s o.1
[03:33] <ubuntuEdgy> sudo dpkg-divert --remove /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so
[03:34] <shawn34> ubuntuEdgy:  tried connect to server via ssh and got "attempt to log in failed"
[03:34] <ubuntuEdgy> sudo dpkg-divert --remove /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libGLcore.so
[03:34] <Smygis> mIgUeL_sAn, i prefer Xfce (xubuntu) before Gnome (ubuntu), imo its a lot nicer. But they stand on the same base so to say, So Everything that works in ubuntu works in (X|K)ubuntu
[03:34] <hwilde> what does this error mean in /var/log/syslog.0: Jun 10 07:35:12 localhost exiting on signal 15
[03:34] <ubuntuEdgy> shawn34: ok first in stall open ssh
[03:35] <shawn34> ubuntuEdgy:  why can't i just use this nfs thing
[03:35] <ubuntuEdgy> then sshuser@102.103.104.106
[03:35] <ubuntuEdgy> shawn34: ok nfs is goot

[03:36] <mIgUeL_sAn> Smygis: in short... the difference between ubuntu and xubuntu is the GUI... right??

[03:38] <hwilde> shawn34, do you know the hostnames of the other computers on your domain
[03:38] <ubuntuEdgy> shawn34: lest try ssh , more likely to work at this stage.
[03:38] <ubuntuEdgy> shawn34: try ftp with login
[03:38] <shawn34> ftp?
[03:39] <orbin> mIgUeL_sAn: yes.  as default, ubuntu uses gnome, xubuntu uses xfce, which is more lightweight
[03:39] <ubuntuEdgy> yes
[03:39] <shawn34> hwilde:  how do i get the host names? the pc's are right next to me
[03:39] <ubuntuEdgy> shawn34: you goin to have to install ftp
[03:39] <hwilde> shawn34, open a terminal, it says username@hostname:~$
[03:40] <shawn34> hwilde:  ok then I know what they are lol ;)
[03:40] <Monteh> hey how do i make use of the "workspaces on a cube" feature in ubuntu?
[03:40] <mIgUeL_sAn> orbin: how about some applications.. is there any application that xubuntu cannot run and only ubuntu can run?
[03:40] <shawn34> hwilde:  shawn@shawn-laptop & shawn@homepc
[03:40] <ubuntuEdgy> ufuk_k: save the files on you desktop then delete them.
[03:40] <hwilde> shawn34, ok and what about hte computer u want to connect to
[03:41] <shawn34> hwilde:  want to share files between the 2
[03:41] <Smygis> mIgUeL_sAn, Yes, xubuntu uses Xfce and ubuntu uses Gnome. do a bit of googling on those and check them out
[03:41] <shawn34> hwilde:  already setup shared folder for each
[03:41] <hwilde> shawn34, the name of the other computer is ?
[03:42] <shawn34> hwilde:  shawn@shawn-laptop   or   192.168.1.104
[03:42] <hwilde> shawn34, ok so go to Places -> Connect to Server
[03:42] <shawn34> hwilde:  there
[03:42] <hwilde> shawn34, u can either try the hostname or ipaddress there
[03:43] <ubuntuEdgy>  Shawn Rieger its not that hard is it.
[03:43] <shawn34> hwilde:  what service type should i choose?
[03:43] <hwilde> shawn34, which kind did you setup
[03:43] <shawn34> hfs
[03:43] <orbin> mIgUeL_sAn: not sure if *everything*  can be. e.g. don't know how panel applets etc. would work, but yes, standalone apps will bring in the required gnome libraries if you install them in xubuntu with an apt tool
[03:43] <hwilde> shawn34, try them all.

[03:52] <Pirolocito> orbin: /home/username/.Trash
[03:52] <Jezz> does a raid configuration itself use disc space? and how much?
[03:52] <padee> hi everyone. it would be fantastic, if someone could give me some advice about accounting and cash stuff on linux... any sw-specialists around?
[03:52] <shawn34> ubuntuEdgy:  yea and when i choose shared folders in the system menu it installs and sets it up for me
[03:52] <shawn34> automatically
[03:52] <orbin> Pirolocito: if it was run under root, it'd be in root's trash

[03:53] <ubuntuEdgy> not at all
[03:53] <Jezz> hello

[05:04] <no1> How can i make my NTFS partition read/write instead of read only?
[05:04] <Brakkvatn> sinapsi77: Because if the fglrx module has been loaded at boot-time, it makes it impossible for the open-source "ati" driver to use 3D. That is a common problem.
[05:04] <poningru> !ntfs | no1
[05:04] <ubotu> no1: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[05:04] <ubuntu_> Yesterday's kernel update broke my computer. How can I downgrade the kernel?
[05:04] <CyberCod> I'm having trouble keeping my wireless connected in feisty... it keeps disconnecting at random times... anyone help me with this?
[05:04] <sinapsi77> then?
[05:04] <no1> !ntfs-3g
[05:04] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[05:04] <poningru> ubuntu_: when the grub window comes up
[05:04] <poningru> select the older kernel
[05:04] <no1> !fuse
[05:04] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing using fuse here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[05:05] <logmein> AS6: go here and download ndiswrapper http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/joomla/ you have to extract it then do apt-get install build-essentials gcc gcc-3.4 g++ then cd in and do ./configure make sudo su make install
[05:05] <poningru> AS6: what are you trying to do?
[05:05] <Brakkvatn> sinapsi77: Then you have to make sure you've removed the fglrx-something package(s). Reboot and cross the fingers.
[05:05] <Feanix> Question:: my internal card reader does not work, i put a sd card in and nothing happens, dmesg shows no change, how do I proceed?

[05:05] <ubuntu_> poningru: I tried booting with 2.16-20 and 2.15-20 and neither works now
[05:05] <Brakkvatn> or 'rmmod fglrx' should work also. I'm not sure :(
[05:05] <sinapsi77> i've removed all pack of fglrx
[05:05] <CyberCod> poningru: who me?

[05:06] <CyberCod> wireless is working, but keeps disconnecting at random intervals... sometimes 5 minutes, sometimes 5 hours

[05:19] <johnnytang24> vakosel : svn checkout

[05:21] <hjmills> scoobydoo28139, become a talk show host
[05:21] <Yanas> What?
[05:21] <_Michael> For someone who plays a game or two and does web development what would your recommand, Dual booting or setting up a VM (I am new to linux so I will have linux and win xp installed)
[05:21] <scoobydoo28139> lol
[05:21] <logmein> AS6: think the fwcutter method yields slower connection speeds rather than using ndiswrapper
[05:21] <hjmills> _Michael, dual booting
[05:21] <_Michael> hjmills thanks
[05:22] <Perun> hi all
[05:22] <Perun> is there a problem with amarok in feisty? if I start it, I see the gui and it hangs...
[05:23] <_Michael> I have 2 hard drives so can i unplug my xp hard drive and then install linux or i dont have to unplug any hard drives?
[05:23] <_Michael> to dual boot
[05:23] <logmein> AS6: just tell me when you give up and want to learn how to compile something
[05:24] <Monteh> guys i think i did something silly and my task bar is gone from my desktop,  :(
[05:24] <timo_> hui
[05:24] <Frogzoo> Perun: amarok runs fine - run it out of a terminal & see if there's errors
[05:24] <timo_> hi
[05:24] <johnnytang24> _Michael : If you have the choice to install linux in a VM under windows, it's a lot easier to learn that way
[05:24] <Billiard> Monteh what is the name of the taskbar
[05:24] <_Michael> what is better for someone new to linux, opensuse or ubuntu or something else?
[05:24] <Billiard> i use kubuntu so idk what its called in gnome
[05:24] <PriceChild> !best | _Michael
[05:24] <ubotu> _Michael: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[05:24] <logmein> Monteh: do ctrl alt f1 then login and enter gnome-panel if your on ubuntu
[05:24] <Monteh> you know the taskbar you get when you install ubuntu >.> _Michael
[05:25] <johnnytang24> _Michael : for example, when the GUI doesn't start, you don't want to have to reboot 30 times bak and forth between windows and linux looking for help
[05:25] <logmein> Monteh: if you have any panels they can be formed however you like and you can add more
[05:25] <_Michael> oh i see
[05:25] <roryy> logmein: you reckon you can launch gnome-panel from the text console?
[05:25] <_Michael> How easy is it to delete the VM?
[05:26] <_Michael> and keeping the winxp installation
[05:26] <logmein> roryy: I dunno let me try
[05:26] <AS6> logmein: the internet connection here in kubuntu, is extremely slow, unlike what it used to be on my winxp a few hours ago. :D
[05:26] <johnnytang24> _Michael : uhh, do you have an OS installed now?
[05:26] <MaverickProwls> Perun:  The amarok problem is solved on the ubuntu forums, it's likely something to do with the javaVM you have installed.
[05:26] <roryy> Monteh: try Alt+F2; you should get a "Run application" dialog box.  Type 'gnome-panel' there and press enter.
[05:26] <logmein> roryy: nope I can't remove my last panel
[05:26] <_Michael> yeah win xp
[05:26] <johnnytang24> _Michael : which one is going to be the host, and which the virtual?
[05:26] <logmein> roryy: whatever I said is worth a shot though
[05:26] <_Michael> I think win xp
[05:27] <_Michael> in host
[05:27] <_Michael> and linux virtual
[05:27] <johnnytang24> _Michael : and you want to delete the host and keep the virtual?
[05:27] <Perun> MaverickProwls: I dont have java installed, its amd64 arch there is no java pkg for it
[05:28] <_Michael> I dont have a VM setup yet or linux installed yet, just tring to find out what is the best setup for me
[05:28] <tanaka> hi

[05:29] <david_> Is there a fix for:
[05:29] <david_> /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
[05:29] <david_> ?
[05:29] <logmein> Wips: check /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:29] <tanaka> whats the recomended way of installing the latest nvidia driver
[05:29] <Brakkvatn> Wips: Check if you're using the correct drivers in that conf file
[05:29] <MaverickProwls> Perun:  Apologies, I misread that as Azureus.
[05:29] <david_> the new Live CD Feisty won't boot on my old hardware :/
[05:30] <johnnytang24> david_ : look up from that error, there's probably another one
[05:30] <j1tters> tanaka System/Administration/Restricted Driver Manager
[05:30] <Wips> Brakkvatn:  conf file?
[05:30] <david_> johnnytang24: read like 200 posts on the forum
[05:30] <Wips> logmein: kk
[05:30] <david_> but I got none the wiser
[05:30] <Wips> But it appeard just suddenly this morning, why would that just happend out of nothing?
[05:30] <tanaka> j1tters: where can i find that in kde?
[05:30] <Brakkvatn> Wips: There was a recent kernel update...
[05:31] <j1tters> you on fiesty tanaka?
[05:31] <_Michael> johnnytang24 : I dont have a VM setup yet or linux installed yet, just tring to find out what is the best setup for me
[05:31] <johnnytang24> david_ : Hey, I got the same problem, but about 30 lines above that error, I get '/dev/root : File already exists'
[05:31] <tanaka> j1tters: yeah
[05:31] <j1tters> tanaka then go to System/Administration/Restricted Driver Manager
[05:31] <Monteh> can someone relay those instructions again, i got ahead of my self(trying to recover taskbar at bottom of screen)
[05:31] <Iolaus> sorry folks, autojoin :@
[05:31] <Wips> Ok, now what am I looking for actually?
[05:32] <johnnytang24> _Michael : If you can have a VM, it's much faster to learn that way.  Then you can always reinstall later and copy over your settings
[05:32] <m1r> does anyone have wireless mouse runing on ubuntu ?
[05:32] <GrueTamer> m1r: me
[05:32] <Wips> Brakkvatn: What am I looking for in the file?
[05:32] <roryy> Monteh: try Alt+F2; you should get a "Run application" dialog box.  Type 'gnome-panel' there and press enter.
[05:32] <MaverickProwls> m1r: me also
[05:32] <Brakkvatn> Wips: Which Driver is selected for your video card. Mine is "ati"

[05:32] <jmitchj> could someone help me figure out why my wireless will connect under 2.6.20-15 but not under 2.6.20-16...?
[05:33] <_Michael> think a VM would be able to run a game maybe 2, and Photoshop and Dreamweaver
[05:33] <JackOfSpades> .... from the command line.
[05:33] <m1r> any tips on it guys ?
[05:33] <Monteh> roryy: it says it detected a panel already running...
[05:33] <_Michael> not all at once of course
[05:33] <Wips> Brakkvatn: Section "Device" says Nvidia, which is correct
[05:33] <roryy> Monteh: hrm.  ok, Alt+F2, type 'gnome-terminal' and press enter; should opne a terminal window
[05:33] <frojnd> This user is not reachable at the moment. Please make sure you are connected and using a protocol that supports offline sending, or wait until this user comes online.  HOW CAN I make this work than when I click someone when I am invisible (in kopete - msn protocol) I can chat with him/her/it ??
[05:34] <johnnytang24> _Michael : I think maybe you're not understanding the connection bettween a VM and its host
[05:34] <_Michael> Which VM software do you find the best (freeware/opensource)
[05:34] <j1tters> frojnd you have to be visible.
[05:34] <roryy> Monteh: now run 'pkill gnome-terminal'  (on my system that immediately relaunches gnome-panel, for what it's worth)
[05:34] <johnnytang24> _Michael : for XP?  There are none
[05:34] <Brakkvatn> Wips: did you upgrade the kernel last night or this morning?
[05:34] <roryy> Monteh: woah

[05:35] <JackOfSpades> _Michael: VirtualBox is a nice open source VM, I prefer VMWare Server (it's free but not open).
[05:35] <_Michael> I heard about VMware is that any good?
[05:35] <winbond> does anyone use abit quadgt motherboard with linux?
[05:35] <Wips> Brakkvatn: The pc had bad resolution, not me

[05:36] <_Michael> well i just need a VM that i dont need to pay for lol
[05:36] <MaverickProwls> No need to respond, I've sorted it.  Thanks and bye!

[05:36] <frojnd> j1tters: u didn't write  --what ? (sorry I don't understand)
[05:36] <jmitchj> could someone help me figure out why my wireless will connect under 2.6.20-15 but not under 2.6.20-16...?
[05:36] <redcard> _Michael, For work or for personal use?
[05:37] <johnnytang24> I thought vmware server had a 30 day trial or something
[05:37] <Brakkvatn> Wips: Hehe... Just kidding
[05:37] <Brakkvatn> Wips: so are you using the official proprietary drivers for nvidia, or the open source ones?
[05:37] <_Michael> personal use (at home)
[05:37] <j1tters> frojnd i know its stupid. its the same with gaim.  shrug. i just meant i didnt write the program was just letting you know thats just how it seems to work.
[05:37] <Monteh> roryy: my buddy list appears from gaim lol :s
[05:37] <Wips> Brakkvatn: So what do I do?
[05:37] <redcard> _Michael, Then virtualbox or vmware server are both available
[05:37] <Brakkvatn> Wips: Are you using the proprietary drivers? In that case i think you have to reinstall them
[05:37] <_Michael> k thanks
[05:37] <_Michael> which do you find more stable?
[05:38] <_Michael> vmware?
[05:38] <_Michael> i hear alot about vmware
[05:38] <Monteh> then it says when i type gnome-panel "i have detected a panel already running, and will now exit"
[05:38] <Wips> Brakkvatn: What's the proprietary drivers?
[05:38] <Brakkvatn> Wips: "nvidia" I think, not "nv"
[05:38] <roryy> Monteh: hrm.  I think i found a solution here https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-panel/+question/7759
[05:39] <frojnd> j1tters: ah, ok
[05:39] <_Michael> johnnytang24: vmware has free virtuation alot with there paid software
[05:39] <roryy> Monteh: need me to help you through it, or can you manage?
[05:39] <vakosel> which is the favorite theme in the community?
[05:39] <hellogoodbye> i'm at my wit's end over regular expressions, can someone help please?
[05:40] <johnnytang24> _Michael : I thought the vmware client was free, but vmware server, which is used to create the vm, is non-free
[05:40] <Wips> Brakkvatn: Well I suppose I have proprietary then.. it says Nvidia
[05:40] <Wips> http://pastebin.ca/556400
[05:40] <roryy> hellogoodbye: if it's not too difficult, i can possibly help.  what's the question?
[05:40] <JackOfSpades> vmware server is free... the management add-ons for corporate use are not free
[05:40] <johnnytang24> that's cool
[05:41] <Wips> Brakkvatn: How do I reinstall?
[05:41] <_Michael> think vmware is the better choice?
[05:41] <hellogoodbye> roryy: how can i say find anything that isn't say the word "foo"
[05:41] <_Michael> or go with virtualbox
[05:41] <Brakkvatn> Wips... Gimme a sec :9
[05:41] <j1tters> I'd go with vmware
[05:41] <roryy> hellogoodbye: using what tool?
[05:41] <ph8> Hey guys, my PC is freezing up in Kubuntu intermittently - I don't seem to be able to track any repetitive action that could be causing it - often i'll be playing music and it'll freeze into a small loop which I can only stop by killall'ing amarok - then sound won't work again until a reboot, sometimes a freeze follows this action if it could be related
[05:41] <hellogoodbye> i've tried with [^]  but it is only for single characters
[05:41] <johnnytang24> vmware is the best VM right now, I think
[05:41] <Wips> Brakkvatn:  Sure :)
[05:41] <hellogoodbye> preg_match in php
[05:41] <ph8> Also - i'm using my mobo's onboard sound - although my soundblaster X-fi appears to be recognised in 'lspci' - however, sound does not play out of my speakers when i plug them into the x-fi, do i need to enable it somewhere?
[05:41] <sh4rk89> Noone italian?
[05:41] <_Michael> thanks
[05:42] <_Michael> is openvz for desktops or only for servers for like webhosting
[05:42] <Brakkvatn> Wips: Have you looked at the System  Administration  Restricted Devices Manager ?
[05:42] <johnnytang24> ph8 : check for bad RAM
[05:42] <roryy> hellogoodbye: erk.  I don't know php at all.
[05:42] <ph8> johnnytang24: memtest?
[05:43] <hellogoodbye> roryy: apparently it uses standard regular expressions
[05:43] <johnnytang24> ph8 : yarly
[05:43] <Wips> Brakkvatn: Nvidia is there
[05:43] <anwar_> logmein: i just finish download the ndiswrapper...
[05:43] <_Michael> i know some php, what is the problem i might know
[05:43] <Wips> Brakkvatn: With Active Checked
[05:43] <anwar_> logmein: how to compile/run it?
[05:43] <johnnytang24> preg_match and preg_replace are the two best php commands
[05:43] <Wips> Brakkvatn: Nvidia accelerated Graphics driver, it says checked and in use
[05:43] <hellogoodbye> _Michael: i'm trying to use preg_match to find a pattern that doesnt contain a certain word
[05:44] <ph8> johnnytang24: memtest just goes on forever right, i should stop it after the battery of 6(?) tests have been finished?
[05:44] <Brakkvatn> Wips: Hehe. It didn't on mine :P. But I just installed ubuntu on this box. hehe.
[05:44] <sh4rk89> I've a problem...I can't recompile the kernel because when I type "make menuconfig" 4 example it give me a lot of error like "scripts/kconfig/lxdialog/dialog.h:200: error: expected ) before * token" someone can help me?
[05:44] <sh4rk89> sorry 4 my bad english...I'm italian...
[05:44] <Wips> Brakkvatn: Soo......
[05:44] <johnnytang24> ph8 : I think you can specify the depth of the test
[05:45] <Feanix> Question:: my internal card reader does not work, i put a sd card in and nothing happens, dmesg shows no change, modprobe sdhci/tifm_sd did not help, how do I proceed?
[05:45] <_Michael> hellogoodbye: hrmm i am not sure
[05:45] <Brakkvatn> Wips: Take a look at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20/+bug/91292
[05:46] <roryy> hellogoodbye: hrm.  in python (?!...) is a "negative lookahead assertion" -- does PHP use (?....) style constructs in regexes?
[05:46] <hellogoodbye> rorry: im not sure, i'll look it up and try it , thanks
[05:46] <qid> So, I just tried updating to 7.10 from the previous release, and it appears to have deleted inittab in the process
[05:47] <qid> Anyone know where I can find a copy of the file that should work with ubuntu?
[05:47] <johnnytang24> ahh, THE file
[05:47] <winbond> does anyone use abit quadgt motherboard with linux?
[05:47] <sh4rk89> anyone can help me?
[05:47] <{E}> ciao
[05:47] <Monteh> i think i might have to reinstall i ahve no clue how to fix this >_<
[05:47] <roryy> qid: i believe inittab is not necessary with upstart.  also, for gutsy questions #ubuntu+1 might be a better place
[05:47] <Brakkvatn> How unstable is gutsy? Is it noticable?
[05:47] <roryy> Monteh: did the web page not do the necessary?
[05:48] <PriceChild> Brakkvatn, don't use it. It is for developers and bug triagers only,.
[05:48] <Monteh> roryy: nope it just hangs when you input the first of the 3 commands it asks you to do :S
[05:48] <PriceChild> !gutsy | Brakkvatn
[05:48] <ubotu> Brakkvatn: 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
[05:48] <alexseif> does any one work phpeclipse on ubuntu
[05:48] <qid> roryy: well, when it tries to boot it gives the error message "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off", which I researched and every forum thread on it tells people to check inittab
[05:48] <phantam1> hey guys got a ... aggrivating issue... i installed ubuntu (im in windows now) and for some reason my networkings not working it shows an eth 1 but cant ping, it even shows the mac address... but it doesnt show a network status... and in device manager it shows the controller but the card it self it says unknown
[05:48] <sh4rk89> I've a problem...I can't recompile the kernel because when I type "make menuconfig" 4 example it give me a lot of error like "scripts/kconfig/lxdialog/dialog.h:200: error: expected ) before * token" someone can help me?
[05:49] <roryy> qid: well, regardless, for 7.10 you should ask in #ubuntu+1
[05:49] <m1chael> when i view large pages in firefox... firefox gets extremely slow.. can anyone give me some hints on what to google or how to fix this?
[05:49] <Brakkvatn> PriceChild: Thanks, mate.
[05:50] <alexseif> ok who knows an IDE for php
[05:50] <Wips> Brakkvatn: So you suggest I change the horizsync and the vertrefresh as the bugthing says?
[05:50] <nonewmsgs_> m1chael: you can try swiftfox
[05:50] <phantam1> it worked on the livecd
[05:50] <phantam1> but after install nada
[05:50] <XiCillin> Anybody here know how to make the desktop transparent all the time?
[05:50] <salami> yo
[05:50] <Brakkvatn> Wips: I have no idea. I'm no expert, just an average user trying to help. But you could try giving it a shot...
[05:51] <roryy> Monteh: doh!  If you're up to it, you could try logging out, going to the text console (Ctl+Alt+F1), login there and run the gconftool-2 command given there; then Alt+F7 (to get back to login) and login as normal.
[05:51] <VirtualJazz> anyone have a sec to answer a quickie about autoplaying dvds?
[05:51] <defrysk> m1chael, https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/433
[05:51] <johnnytang24> I wish X could do transparencies
[05:51] <phantam1> anybudy :(
[05:52] <_Michael> Does anyone know if wine have photoshop cs2
[05:53] <m1chael> defrysk, why flash blocker?
[05:53] <phantam1> is their a way to fix the drivers or something?
[05:53] <PriceChild> _Michael, check the winehq appdb
[05:53] <salami> out of interest
[05:53] <_Michael> or is there something else like wine?
[05:53] <_Michael> thanks
[05:53] <Wips> but I cant find the vertrefresh and the horizsync
[05:53] <defrysk> m1chael, flash slows things down
[05:53] <phantam1> i wish their was a version of parallels3 for linux lol
[05:53] <phantam1> stupid macs
[05:53] <__Ace__> in the "open with" create custom command... how can I make it open with 7z?
[05:53] <__Ace__> I tried "7z x %1" with no go
[05:53] <nonewmsgs_> michael: there is also cadega(sp?) and virtual machines
[05:53] <nemo_home> phantam1: I find VirtualBox more reliable under linux
[05:54] <nemo_home> although parallels does kick ass under mac
[05:54] <nemo_home> Cedega
[05:54] <Brakkvatn> Wips: Just add those lines in that case. Remember to do a backup of the original xorg.conf first
[05:54] <phantam1> hehe i havent tried virtualbox yet
[05:54] <gnomefreak> nemo_home: please watch your language
[05:54] <phantam1> as i said im still in here asking how to get networking working
[05:55] <nemo_home> gnomefreak: what on earth?
[05:55] <_Michael> well i am going to setup a VM, but i want to slowly get away from windows
[05:55] <hjmills> _Michael, for photoshop try crossover office - they do more of those kind of programs though I havn't used it myself
[05:55] <nemo_home> gnomefreak: you think the term "ass" isn't family friendly?
[05:55] <gnomefreak> !language | nemo_home
[05:55] <ubotu> nemo_home: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[05:55] <nemo_home> gnomefreak: silly gnome
[05:55] <_Michael> hjmills oh okay thanks
[05:55] <__Ace__> anyone?
[05:55] <ALMimoni> I wanna remove all files and directories listed in the file named installed.files, HOW?
[05:55] <winbond> lolz, family friendly
[05:56] <VirtualJazz> anyone know why exec'ing "gxine dvd://1" from the shell will autoplay a dvd but using the same command from "System -> Prefs -> Rem Drives and Media -> Multimedia -> Video DVD Discs" won't?
[05:56] <defrysk> ALMimoni, rm -rf /path/to/folder/folder_to_remove/
 i have names listed in a file
[05:57] <defrysk> ALMimoni, or rm path/to/folder/file_to_remove
[05:57] <backtick> hi all.. is there a way to know which process is locking a file?
[05:57] <Wips> Brakkvatn: Soo, then I reboot?
[05:57] <hjmills> VirtualJazz, well mine is totem %m so maybe gxine %m would do it?
[05:57] <pike_> damnit i just overwrote ad0 with urandom... i was trying to ckeck sound and im so used to typing /dev/ad0.. that was my entire /shared drive
 i have lot of files & i wanna remove them at once
[05:58] <Brakkvatn> Wips: Restart the X server. I will be right back, because it is I who has to reboot ;)
[05:58] <nemo_home> Anyone here have any ideas about what might cause Feisty synaptic touchpad driver in X11 to fail when doing user switching?  worked in Edgy, nothing seems to revive it in Feisty.  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-driver-synaptics/+bug/60544
[05:58] <roryy> ALMimoni: something like   'cat installed.files | xargs -n100 rm' or even 'rm $(cat installed.files)'   --- be careful though!
[05:58] <nemo_home> workaround suggested does not work
[05:58] <Wips> How do I restart the X-server?
[05:59] <defrysk> ALMimoni, rm /path/to/folder_containing_the_files/*
[05:59] <nemo_home> nothing in Xorg log, seems to say it reconnected to device fine
[05:59] <VirtualJazz> hjmills: yeah, i tried that as well...  no luck.  dang.
[05:59] <novato_br> hi, dudes
[05:59] <novato_br> what's is this problem :"beryl: No GLXFBConfig for depth 32" ?
[05:59] <nemo_home> synclient fails as well, afterwards
[05:59] <hjmills> VirtualJazz, see if you can find what %m is converted to at runtime maybe
[06:00] <ph8> i'm using my mobo's onboard sound - although my soundblaster X-fi appears to be recognised in 'lspci' - however, sound does not play out of my speakers when i plug them into the x-fi, do i need to enable it somewhere?
[06:00] <novato_br> my brazilians friends unknow about this error: beryl: No GLXFBConfig for depth 32
[06:00] <novato_br> 
[06:00] <miciomicio> hi all
[06:00] <VirtualJazz> hjmills: strangely enough, its not working with totem right now either.  didn't notice that until i reset it.  something else is afoot i think.
[06:00] <hjmills> hmm - do you have totem-gstreamer or totem-xine?
[06:01] <ALMimoni> look at this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25002/
[06:01] <ALMimoni> i wanna remove all of them at once
[06:01] <bobbob1016> I'm using parallels on Ubuntu (Ubuntu is the host), and every now and then it says "Using loopback sound", when I startup a VM, I think it is when I have either VLC or Firefox running, so I'm guessing it's the audio architecture it's using, it lets me choose aRTS, DSP or Loopback, which would be better to use?
[06:01] <czaveri> While logging in and logging out, I noticed that in Ubuntu Feisty the brown color from the Human theme comes up eventhough I have changed the theme and background color of the desktop. Any ideas on how I can change this?
[06:01] <hjmills> novato_br, have you tried specifying a colour depth of 32? If so change it to 24
[06:02] <defrysk> ALMimoni, sudo rm /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/*
[06:02] <phantam1> guys come on how do i fix the issue with the Marvell adapter? i cant use my desktop until i get the network working
[06:02] <novato_br> hjmills,  on Xorg config is 24
[06:02] <novato_br> what is the problem?
[06:02] <miciomicio> I have ubuntu feisty and i incurred a problem with internet connection: I didi a static ip on eth0 then may connection went down. I set on DHCP configuration from Ubuntu Network manager my device baut it cannnot connect to internet anymore
[06:02] <VirtualJazz> i've tried both.  they both have an issue with certain dvds with audio streams...  they report the device as being busy
[06:02] <hjmills> novato_br, no idea then, sorry
[06:02] <novato_br> bu
[06:02] <novato_br> i'll cry
 no man >:(

[06:03] <novato_br> everybody get beryl and me not
[06:03] <miciomicio> pike wich command?
[06:03] <defrysk> ALMimoni, sorry this should be sudo rm /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/winkirip/*

[06:06] <bobbob1016> sandman85, it doesn't
[06:06] <nomad> if i create a directory with "sudo mkdir /tmp" only root can use it
[06:06] <bobbob1016> sandman85, 3D in VM's isn't easy, I think parallels for the mac does it, not VMware yet
[06:06] <nomad> so, how should i create it
[06:07] <rinky> nomad: I read something about that earlier today, the importance of having correct permissiosn on /tmp but I cant recall exactly
[06:07] <sandman85> bobbob1016, thanks!
[06:07] <sandman85> might just get one of those old computers down in the garage started up again, use Ubuntu on that :D
[06:08] <nomad> mmh

[06:12] <sh4rk89> I've a problem....I've installed my graphic card driver and configured xorg.conf to use "nvidia" driver instead of "nv" and if I write startx the monitor go in stand by mode but the x server doesn't crash (beacause I can listen the start-up music). As I can understand I'm not the only with this problem...anyone can help me?
[06:13] <nomad> rinky: so a "chmod drwxrwxrwx /tmp" would be okay, wouldn't it?
[06:13] <roryy> nomad: that's not how chmod works.  rinky's original instructions looked correct
[06:13] <rinky> nomad, no i dont know the commands, I can look it up for you if you want
[06:13] <miciomicio> sh4: sudo dpkg xorg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:13] <miciomicio> sh4rk89 : sudo dpkg xorg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:13] <roryy> nomad: chmod 777 sets rwxrwxrwx; the chmod +t will make it rwxrwxrwt
[06:14] <sh4rk89> I've tryed dexconf...I think it's the same...

[06:17] <bobbob1016> I'm using parallels on Ubuntu (Ubuntu is the host), and every now and then it says "Using loopback sound", when I startup a VM, I think it is when I have either VLC or Firefox running, so I'm guessing it's the audio architecture it's using, it lets me choose aRTS, DSP or Loopback, which would be better to use?  Does anyone know if VMWare has the same or similar issue?

[06:36] <fetenfeten> hello ppl
[06:37] <Brakkvatn> lengend: You can just make some room without a partition
[06:37] <Brakkvatn> lengend: ubuntu will make the partitions it needs, as long as there is room for it
[06:37] <lengend> but i am afraid of it formatting my harddrive
[06:37] <`4aFkA`> whats the best virtual machine to run ubuntu on windows??
[06:37] <lengend> i have a 160gb harddrive, and 107gb of free space

[06:38] <Brakkvatn> lengend: I don't remember if ubuntu liveCD allows you to resize the windows partition, but if it does, it might be a good idea.
[06:38] <DShepherd> MenZa, well it detected my external Display .... i only see Separate X Screen and twinview... i dont think i want my desktop to spread across the 2 monitors.. so if that is what twinview means I dont want that.. and no i dont see a clone option
[06:39] <lengend> i don't have a live cd
[06:39] <MenZa> DShepherd: Hmm, I don't have a second monitor to test it.
[06:39] <lengend> i have the newest version

[06:39] <lengend> lol
[06:39] <MenZa> DShepherd: odd.
[06:39] <MenZa> 6.21, lengend? There is no such thing.
[06:39] <MenZa> There's 6.06, 6.10 and latest 7.04
[06:39] <lengend> i mean

[06:41] <lengend> Brakkvatn, so if i use the ubuntu cd to make the partition it won't format my harddrive?
[06:41] <ralph> I'm having problems with the security settings of the directories. I set them to chown 755 per Apache spec but still I keep getting the following error on error.log:
[06:41] <ralph> Premature end of script headers: phpinfo.php, referer:
[06:41] <ralph> http://localhost/server-test/test/php/
[06:41] <ralph> Googling websites shows this to be an Apache reaction to incorrect

[06:41] <ralph> phpinfo(); ?>
[06:41] <ralph> This should not be so difficult as I have set up php, apache, and mysql

[06:42] <PriceChild> !sudo | wedontneed
[06:42] <hjmills> !sudo | wedontneed
[06:42] <ubotu> ralph: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[06:42] <ubotu> wedontneed: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.

[06:51] <peus_> what is specs?
[06:51] <hjmills> fetenfeten, try using a drawer
[06:51] <heroin_>  kitche so how would i fix it?
[06:51] <GrueTamer> system specs = specifications (ie, how much ram you have, cpu power, video card)
[06:51] <fetenfetenn> peus your microprocessor, memory etc
[06:51] <hjmills> bthornton, check the 64bit area of the forums for the thread on firefox etc i think
[06:51] <Funkah> Slow computers is usually attributed to vast amount of porn.
[06:51] <GrueTamer> lol Funkah

[06:53] <kitche> tim1
[06:53] <GrueTamer> tim1: i know
[06:53] <heroin_> kitche: well iam looking at it but i dont see what needs to be changed
[06:53] <kitche> tim1: it should work automatically if you install grub correctly
[06:53] <lengend> Hello, can someone answer quickly just need a yes or no: if i use the ubuntu cd to do the partition, and have xp mce and ubuntu install will it let me dual boot?
[06:53] <weltall> hi, i have a problem with nfs since i've update to feisty (before it was working fine). I can mount fine the root but i can't mount the mounted devices like /media/hdb1. before i'd directly mount it and it worked now no go i get some access denied errors (altough the setup didn't change and it's pratically almost the same as the one used for /)
[06:53] <kitche> heroin_: what does your root(hdX, X) look like
[06:53] <GrueTamer> lengend: yes
[06:53] <hjmills> lengend, yes, but backup first of course
[06:54] <tim1> kitche: it used to work for me but suddenly it just flashes a message for a second and then i'm back in the grub menu
[06:54] <lengend> i am doing that now, its just i have never used the ubuntu cd to partition, i use partition magic
[06:54] <heroin_> kitche: well hda has 8 parttitions, 6 is ubuntu 7 is swap
[06:54] <heroin_> hda,6 is my ubuntu partition
[06:54] <kitche> heroin_: 8 partitions do you mean that you have logical partitions?
[06:55] <NobleCommerce> weird question... anyone know an application that would let me get access to my terminal via instant messenger?
[06:55] <killerbunny> NobleCommerce, but why ?
[06:55] <VirtualJazz> that IS a weird question
[06:55] <yurimxpxman> that's a neat idea!
[06:55] <tim1> It's kinda important for me to boot into windows and i tried to fix grub and when that didn't work I tried to remove grub but that didn't work either
[06:56] <nemik> hello. is there any way to see what specific HTTP-requests are being made by some app?
[06:56] <nemik> kind of like a mini-wireshark/etheral surrounding some app/process?
[06:56] <yurimxpxman> what options could I use to use mencoder to convert an MPEG to OGG Theora? I can't figur eit out.
[06:56] <heroin_> kitche: uh.. iam not to good with this but i have 1 harddrive with like 8 partitions, a windows NTFS, a fat32, ext3, swap, fat32
[06:56] <heroin_> and on hda6 is my ubuntu install
[06:56] <joelliot> lengend---I am running dual boot XP / Ubuntu Feisty .... used gparted on the Ubuntu cd to partition drive.... worked perfectly
[06:56] <kitche> heroin_: well the most you can have is 4 on a drive primary partitions that is
[06:56] <NobleCommerce> because i can't open a port
[06:57] <Sergo> hello, it is possible to install wine if the proccesor have 64bit arhitecutre?
[06:57] <tim1> so anybody a tip? cause the tips on the wiki don't work for me
[06:57] <Brakkvatn> lengend: Yes. it will become dual boot
[06:57] <NobleCommerce> i'm on a crappy college internet connection... no incoming ports available
[06:57] <kitche> heroin_: but it would be root (hd0,5) in grub
[06:57] <killerbunny> NobleCommerce, so you want to access remote terminal via instant message ?
[06:57] <NobleCommerce> but i want to be able to work on some things from work
[06:57] <NobleCommerce> exactly
[06:57] <NobleCommerce> or some other way, i dunno
[06:57] <killerbunny> NobleCommerce, i dont think thats possbible.
[06:58] <lengend> thank you for your help
[06:58] <NobleCommerce> yet.
[06:58] <heroin_> kitche: when in grub i type, find /boot/grub/stage1 it replies (hd0,5)
[06:58] <Sergo> how to install wine in x64?
[06:59] <kitche> heroin_: what does your /boot/grub/menu.lst say though
[06:59] <heroin_> kitche: want me to pastebin it?
[06:59] <Sergo> does ubuntu support x64 proccesors?
[06:59] <kitche> heroin_: if you can please
[06:59] <rbil> Sergo: as far as I understand, wine will only work in x32, but maybe things have changed?
[06:59] <heroin_> kitche: ok 1 moment
[06:59] <michaels_> how do i install beryl without root access?
[06:59] <Sergo> rbil: ok thanks
[07:00] <hjmills> NobleCommerce, write a program that acts as a client on a jabber network and runs anything you send to it as a shell command passing the output back to you? No idea how though
[07:00] <kitche> michaels_: you have sudo powers?
[07:00] <michaels_> yes i have sudo
[07:00] <michaels_> but not dpkg
[07:00] <kitche> michaels_: what do you mean not dpkg?
[07:00] <michaels_> i cant use dpkg
[07:00] <heroin_> kitche: http://pastebin.ca/556535
[07:00] <michaels_> like edit the sources.list
[07:01] <kitche> michaels_: sudo apt-get install beryl
[07:01] <michaels_> broken packages

[07:02] <michup> hi, im looking for program similar to cool edit for making radio auditions
[07:03] <michaels_> what does broken beryl packages meen/
[07:03] <heroin_> kitche: ok, but hda5 is a fat32 file sharing partition..
[07:03] <rai0d> hello
[07:03] <GrueTamer> heroin_: grub starts counting at 0, not 1
[07:03] <JC_Denton_>  I have a 512mb swap partition. Is there a way to extend this , adding a swap file on another partition? In most cases Ubuntu refuses to hibernate you see, not enough swap...
[07:03] <kitche> heroin_: 0=1 in grub 1=2 2=3 3=4 4=5 5=6 and so on
[07:03] <heroin_> kitche: but changing line 1267 to hd0,5 should fix it?
[07:04] <gnomefreak> michaels_: you might be better asking in #ubuntu-effects
[07:04] <heroin_> oic :)
[07:04] <salami> yo
[07:04] <hdxx> hey i have a problem... my internet conenction in ubuntu 7.04 sometimes work sometimes not..what is a problem?
[07:04] <heroin_> kitche: thanks let me test it out
[07:04] <rbil> JC_Denton_: yes, you can extend the swap partition by adding a swapfile
[07:04] <yurimxpxman> what can I use to convert mpeg2 to ogg theora?
[07:04] <rbil> !swapfile
[07:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about swapfile - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:04] <salami> dunno
[07:04] <rbil> hold on, I'll get u a link
[07:04] <akromyk> Does anyone have an suggestions for a good C++ IDE for a newbie?
[07:04] <JC_Denton_> rbil, thanx
[07:04] <heroin_> kitche: can i also remove the old kernel boot things?
[07:05] <kitche> heroin_: if you wish but have one for backup always
[07:05] <Madsy> akromyk: Anjuta, Eclipse, or Code::Blocks
[07:05] <rbil> JC_Denton_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=89782
[07:05] <Madsy> Or just vim ;-)
[07:05] <ralph> this is the module in php i'm trying to access
[07:05] <Brakkvatn> JC_Denton_: That game rocks
[07:05] <akromyk> Madsy, thanks. which one of those do you think is most supported?
[07:06] <Madsy> Depends. What do you mean with "most supported"?
[07:06] <Madsy> How fast you can expect a reply on a problem?
[07:07] <JC_Denton_> rbil, thanks
[07:07] <JC_Denton_> brakkvatn, right your are
[07:07] <Madsy> I don't like to speculate, but probably Eclipse and Anjuta.
[07:07] <Madsy> They are both pretty mature.
[07:07] <akromyk> Madsy, right, think about Ubuntu vs Fedora. Its incredibly easy to ask questions and get awnsers
[07:07] <michaels_> can someone help me install beryl without root access
[07:07] <yurimxpxman> what can I use to convert mpeg2 to ogg theora?
[07:07] <GrueTamer> michaels_: use su
[07:07] <GrueTamer> or sudo, rather
[07:07] <Jay> hi
[07:07] <michaels_> i dont have the admin password
[07:07] <cheeseboy> how i refresh hardware dection w/o reboot?
[07:07] <Madsy> akromyk: Both Anjuta and Eclipse is available as Ubuntu builds.
[07:07] <michaels_> which is needed for su
[07:08] <akromyk> Madsy, how does KDevelop compare to both those?
[07:08] <rbil> michaels_: doesn't sudo work for you?
[07:08] <Madsy> akromyk: You'll find them under Applications -> Add/Remove
[07:08] <lengend> wish me luck :)
[07:08] <michaels_> yes
[07:08] <michaels_> it does.
[07:08] <Madsy> akromyk: Can't say. I haven't used KDevelop enough to give an opinion.
[07:08] <rbil> sudo apt-get install beryl
[07:08] <michaels_> but "sudo apt-get install beryl" says it have broken packages and will not install
[07:09] <omegacenti> Hello :)
[07:09] <akromyk> Madsy, I have one last question. Which of those two would you say is more user-friendly for noobs like me?
[07:09] <Perun> I have still problem with amarok, installed medibuntu pkgs and after that it doesnt work, I have deinstalled (purge) all pkgs for amarok and kaffeine, installed the 'normal' pkgs from feisty repo and still have this problem... it starts, i see the gui and after this it hangs
[07:09] <Jay> I'm having trouble booting Ubunut from a live CD
[07:09] <Jay> Ubuntu*
[07:09] <nitro4ce> is there a piano software for linux?
[07:09] <Madsy> akromyk: I don't know anything about you. How long have you coded in C++? Do you know any other language as well? What IDE did you use before?
[07:09] <justin420> hi all, can anybody tell me how to get smime encrypted emails to work with evolution on feisty? i have already imported my certificates and have the packages libmime-explode-perl libmime-lite-perl python-m2cyrpto.
[07:10] <Madsy> For how*
[07:10] <sussebass> hi
[07:10] <alex__> hi, does anybody know any good movie torrent site?
[07:10] <Madsy> akromyk: Probably Anjuta, but that's just a pure guess. As I stated, I don't know anything about your preferences.
[07:10] <nitro4ce> alex__: isohunt.com
[07:10] <Jay> I don't think Ubuntu is detecting the right video card when I run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[07:11] <_Michael> torrentspy.com isohunt.xom
[07:11] <alex__>  thx
[07:11] <pike_> Jay: just select vesa
[07:11] <akromyk> Madsy, I guess I'm just looking for a simple interface, kind of like gnome when compared to kde
[07:11] <Jay> I've tried that pike_
[07:11] <ralph> i still can't access php because of the error
 for subtitles: opensubtitles.org
[07:11] <alex__> does anybody knows why the panels are visible only in one of the 4 workspaces i have?
[07:11] <Jay> Vesa, VGA, nv, ...I've tried a bunch of drivers
[07:11] <alex__> nitro4ce: thanks
[07:11] <_Michael> bittorrent i think you can search for torrents too
[07:11] <omegacenti> akromyk: Xfce lighter than gnome. Fluxbox lightest.
[07:12] <manone123> Hey everybody, I have problems installing ubuntu 6.0.6, who's the best resource to ask a few specific questions?
[07:12] <manone123> Thanks
[07:12] <Madsy> akromyk: You always have Kate.
[07:12] <Hypernerd> What problems?
[07:12] <Jay> Ubuntu always detects my old integrated video card instead of my PCI one.
[07:12] <heroin_> manone123: just ask the questions :D
[07:12] <Madsy> akromyk: http://kate-editor.org/
[07:13] <rbil> jay: you can blacklist the integrated video
 no clue. the panels should be seen in any workspace.
[07:13] <manone123> I install it and it complains that can't find the root partition (and times out)
[07:13] <j1tters> Jay can you turn off the integrated one in bios
 workspaces manage windows, not panels.
[07:13] <magic_ninja> !pastebin

[07:13] <justin420> hi all, can anybody tell me how to get smime encrypted emails to work with evolution on feisty? i have already imported my certificates and have the packages libmime-explode-perl libmime-lite-perl python-m2cyrpto.

[07:16] <heroin_> kitche: ok lets see what happens :D
[07:16] <j1tters> whats happening on install manone123
[07:17] <Hypernerd> It should be, especially when it's not a dual boot
[07:17] <linux_manju> manone123: Can you describe the problem you are facing.. Sorry I missed out the initial question
[07:17] <manone123> go through the live  cd, partition ok, when boot gets stuck in "waiting for root partition" and drops into the internal shell after a while
[07:17] <linux_manju> manone123: You have any SATA drive?
[07:17] <heroin_> kitche: works thanks
[07:18] <akromyk> thank you for your help. you guys are why I stick with Linux, and especially Ubuntu
[07:18] <akromyk> bye

[07:19] <manone123> shuttle pc
[07:19] <linux_manju> manone123: Well As I understand 6.06 comes with 2.6.19/.. correct me if I am wroing
[07:19] <michaels_> whats it meen by broken packages?
[07:19] <michaels_> for beryl
[07:20] <linux_manju> manone123: Try changing the SATA settings to Compatible mode in the BIOS
[07:20] <linux_manju> and try installing again
[07:20] <GrueTamer> michaels_: packages you downloaded are broken
[07:20] <manone123> ok, will try that and let you know, thanks manju
[07:20] <GrueTamer> that, or you have dependency problems, which are pretty rare
[07:20] <linux_manju> manone123: Be warned that It will screwup all the data which is in the HDD
[07:20] <michaels_> but they are "sudo apt-get install beryl" those are broken?

[07:22] <gameprograma> do the ATi proprietary drivers work better than the X.org drivers?
[07:22] <nevon> it says bad file descriptor
[07:22] <omegacenti> Love that movie.
[07:22] <leonidas> yeah it is a good one
[07:23] <leonidas> so i'm new to ubuntu
[07:23] <linux_manju> manone123: PM not allowed :)
[07:23] <GrueTamer> welcome
[07:23] <leonidas> it's pretty great
[07:23] <michaels_> how do i correct beryl broken packages?
[07:23] <leonidas> a little confusing at times
[07:23] <michaels_> would it be my system?
[07:23] <leonidas> most times
[07:23] <omegacenti> Grats on moving to an OS that lets you do nearly everything. Free.
[07:23] <leonidas> yes
[07:23] <BandB> michaels: tried renstalling?
[07:23] <leonidas> it's great
[07:23] <michaels_> beryl?

[07:23] <gameprograma> Anyone?
[07:23] <leonidas> does anyone know of a good newbie room
[07:23] <michaels_> i cant reinstall ubuntu
[07:23] <BandB> jeps
[07:23] <Veinor> For some reason, my torrents keep going down to 0 B/s
[07:23] <Hypernerd> despite our numbers being > 300, I'm assuming Windows users are the persians
[07:23] <manone123> no problem, i am an advanced myself, just didn't play much with this. it is more for bouncing ideas
[07:23] <omegacenti> leonidas: This is where I started.
[07:23] <BandB> but only beryk
[07:24] <leonidas> ok cool
[07:24] <leonidas> i mean i'm pretty good with computer
[07:24] <leonidas> s
[07:24] <Veinor> Hypernerd: Tonight, we dine in bash!
[07:24] <leonidas> but not that good with ubuntu yet or linux in general really
[07:24] <omegacenti> leonidas: its just that linux is a whole nother breed.
[07:24] <hatredx> Does the server install cd have agetty via serial support by default?
[07:24] <leonidas> yeah
[07:24] <omegacenti> leonidas: Same story here :)
[07:24] <GrueTamer> leonidas: this is a good channel
[07:25] <VirtualJazz> hey anyone have any issues with certain dvds choking with an "audio device busy" issue?
[07:25] <BandB> only a lot of people :-p
[07:25] <VirtualJazz> haha
[07:25] <logmein> I have a second hard drive.... how do I find it?
[07:25] <VirtualJazz> let me rephrase that...  anyone have a SOLUTION
[07:25] <leonidas> well then i guess i found the right place.
[07:25] <leonidas> ;)
[07:25] <GrueTamer> hehe
[07:25] <Thorne> logmein:  open up your computer :D
[07:25] <linux_manju> logmein: fdisk -l
[07:25] <jrib> logmein: what filesystem?
[07:25] <GrueTamer> it takes a real good channel to to bring ubuntu and slackware users together
[07:25] <omegacenti> leonidas: you very will likely find this the nicest channel you could ever hope for.
[07:25] <logmein> jrib: I don't know what file system all I know is its there
[07:25] <omegacenti> logmein: hey man :)
[07:25] <hatredx> <- fresh slackware (slamd64) convert
[07:26] <logmein> omegacenti: sup

[07:26] <omegacenti> Not much, just woke up
[07:26] <jrib> !fstab > logmein (see the private message from ubotu)
[07:26] <hatredx>         Does the server install cd have agetty via serial support by default?
[07:26] <GrueTamer> hatredx: so, two of us slackers are in here that i know of, cool!
[07:26] <leonidas> now if i just can get all my games to run on linux it would be great...
[07:26] <omegacenti> I had to set my alarm clock for 12:00 PM... >.>
[07:26] <leonidas> i just don't really have the time lately
[07:26] <Yodude> hey how can i restore my icon settings and cache ( i mean remove all the customizations i made to the icons of folders and files ), restore them to default
[07:26] <hatredx> I am happy and sad to leave slackware =/
[07:26] <omegacenti> leonidas: that might be the hardest thing you do
[07:26] <leonidas> yeah
[07:26] <leonidas> i fugured
[07:26] <logmein> jrib oh fstab ok
[07:26] <omegacenti> leonidas: Have you tried wine? winehq.com

[07:27] <BandB> chose the default one
[07:27] <kitche> hatredx: well considering slamd is not slackware officially you didn't leave it :)
[07:27] <leonidas> kind of gave up for today
[07:27] <omegacenti> leonidas: Do you know about the application database on winehq?
[07:27] <leonidas> no i guess not

[07:33] <erich85> Hi everyone-- I tried to use Envy to install the Nvidia driver for my computer, and it killed my GUI.
[07:33] <erich85> Can someone try to help me restore it?
[07:33] <Ghost> Hello everyone
[07:34] <erUSUL> !envy
[07:34] <ubotu> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[07:34] <Mandrill> Can anyone help me, I've lost a samba share that's been working fine for three months and just disappeared this afternoon?
[07:34] <Veinor> heh.
[07:34] <Ghost> Is samba used for getting your windows hard drive files?
[07:34] <Ghost> Or basically share
[07:34] <linux_manju> Ghost: windows share over the network
[07:35] <Mandrill> no other way around. I use my ubuntu machine as a file server
[07:35] <linux_manju> Ghost: Not the local hdd
[07:35] <coolgeek> guys whats the shortcut to switch between screens when using the TS client in full screen??
[07:35] <Mandrill> and access the files from my win machine
[07:35] <Yodude> jrib: it doesn't seem to work, i guess i'll live with it. Now on to a serious question: if i add a DVD drive to my system, will ubuntu pick it up out of the box ?
[07:35] <erich85> erUSUL:   Thanks.  ;)  Know of any way I can rectify it?
[07:35] <coolgeek> any one?
[07:35] <jrib> Yodude: I'm pretty sure it should
[07:36] <BandB> changes are it will... never tried with a dvd, but succeeded with a cd-rom
[07:36] <ipx> Can I launch an application and force it to have sound? Sometimes when i launch for example fretsonfire, it had no sound and i have to reboot it.
[07:36] <ipx> I thought like "sh Fretsonfire -forcesound"
[07:36] <Ghost> I had some way I was mounting my windows HDD and my ubuntu install got screwed up so I had to reinstall. I forgot the 'program' I used to view my windows hard drive
[07:36] <coolgeek> guys whats the shortcut to switch between screens when using the TS client in full screen??
[07:36] <Yodude> jrib: you mean it would appear in nautilus like alll the other drives just like that ?
[07:36] <erUSUL> erich85: does envy has an option to remove the driver and itself ??
[07:36] <ipx> coolgeek: you're using screen?
[07:37] <zap2> how do i bring a process from the background to the foreground?
[07:37] <WeeJeWel> I got a problem... VMWare doesnt seem to recognize /media/cdrom0 as a cdrom drive?
[07:37] <coolgeek> ipx: no?
[07:37] <Ghost> Nautilus sounds fomiliar
[07:37] <joelliot> Yodude ... yes it will pick up the DVD drive... install a samsung dvd drive on Feisty last week... no problems
[07:37] <ipx> coolgeek: nvm then
[07:37] <BandB> zap2: fg
[07:37] <erich85> erUSUL:   Yeah, it's not incredibly useful.
[07:37] <Nephelauxetic> zap2: fg
[07:37] <Ghost> lol bad spelling
[07:37] <johnnytang24> WeeJeWel : try /dev/cdrom
[07:37] <Veinor> If my partitions are set up as follows: windows linux swap, and I want to expand my linux partition, do I have to move the linux partition to the left/front?
[07:37] <Carb0n> coolgeek: Have you tried Ctrl-Alt-Arrow
[07:37] <FerrariDreams> Good afternoon! :D
[07:37] <tim167> when i want to do sudo i get "timestamp too far in the furure: Jun 10 21:34:55 2007" anyone know what that is ?
[07:37] <Yodude> joielliot: WOW !! great! thnkx
[07:37] <Yodude> bye all, peace out
[07:37] <johnnytang24> WeeJeWel : /media/cdrom0 is where you'd mount it, iirc
[07:37] <konam> i'm having problems with Brasero (the burning application).
[07:37] <coolgeek> Carb0n: yeah... maybe im not explaining it very well
[07:37] <Ghost> Ok I'll look for Nautilus
[07:37] <Ghost> brb
[07:37] <zap2> BandB, Nephelauxetic: i have irssi running a process but i can't access it because i killed the screen it was in.... and fg doesn't bring it back
[07:38] <WeeJeWel> omg that i was that stupid!
[07:38] <coolgeek> im connecting full screen using the Terminal Service tool
[07:38] <WeeJeWel> thanks alot!
[07:38] <VirtualJazz> coolgeek: you trying to switch in and out of fullscreen mode?
[07:38] <BandB> konam: try to be specific
[07:38] <erich85> erUSUL: Haha, hey, it worked.
[07:38] <coolgeek> VirtualJazz: yeah i guess.
[07:38] <roryy> tim167: sudo remembers when last you used it; somehow, your computer time has changed and sudo is confused.  Try running 'sudo -K' and then use sudo as normal again
[07:38] <VirtualJazz> its either ctrl-alt-enter or shift-alt-enter
[07:38] <leonidas> that's cool thanks alot omega, that's really helping me out
[07:38] <erich85> erUSUL:  So, this was my... fourth attempt to try to install the NVidia drivers on my comp.
[07:38] <Ghost> Hmmm that's already installed
[07:38] <VirtualJazz> can't remember which
[07:38] <erich85> erUSUL: Am I just SOL?
[07:38] <Carb0n> coolgeek: try switching out of fullscreen (is there a way?)
[07:38] <Ghost> I'd watch with those Nvidia drivers
[07:38] <konam> BandB i'm trying to copy a ps2 game to a dvd image (no matter what kind of file) and it don't let me
[07:38] <Nephelauxetic> zap2: sorry no clue :)
[07:39] <Ghost> All went well until I enabled 3D excel.
[07:39] <zap2> how do i kill process?
[07:39] <BandB> did you search wethet it is a bug?
[07:39] <erUSUL> erich85: have you used System>Admin>restricted manager  ??
[07:39] <Deinumite> erich85: restricted drivers did it for me, (ATI card so even worse off than you)
[07:39] <ipx> zap2: System monitor > rightclick on process > kill process
[07:39] <Nephelauxetic> zap2: with the kill command
[07:39] <ipx> zap2: system monitor can be found in System > Administration
[07:39] <Veinor> zap2 ps aux | grep (process name) to get the pid, and then kill <pid>
[07:39] <erich85> Deinumite, erUSUL:  no, I'll try that.
[07:39] <Nephelauxetic> zap2: try ps aux | grep processname
[07:39] <zap2> thanks
[07:39] <Carb0n> zap2: killall <process_name>
[07:39] <konam> BandB it says that 'it needs 616Mb' to create the disc image but i have 8GBs left on that hard disk, and i try another too
[07:39] <Veinor> kill -9 if normal kill doesn't work
[07:39] <zap2> :O
[07:39] <Deinumite> erich85: after that, type glxgears to test it :D
[07:40] <erUSUL> erich85: or the instructions in the wiki?
[07:40] <erich85> Deinumite: Can I fix it it doesn't work?
[07:40] <Veinor> killall works too
[07:40] <zap2> so i can't bring back a process when it's running and i have no way to access it?
[07:40] <Tomcat_> konam: /tmp needs to have 616M free, not the disk. :o
[07:40] <Ghost> Ok so what do I need to get into my windows hard drive from linux
[07:40] <Veinor> fg?
[07:40] <ThePioneer> Can anyone tell me how to access my shared folders online?
[07:40] <Deinumite> erich85: did you use the restricted drivers manageR? after that you will need to restart
[07:40] <BandB> zap2: did you try fg ?
[07:40] <erich85> Deinumite: I'm about to press "enable"
[07:40] <Jay> what is a blacklist?
[07:40] <zap2> thanks, i got it
[07:40] <erich85> Deinumite: I'm just wondering if it'll kill my computer if it doesn't work
[07:40] <linux_manju> Ghost: mount -t fstype /dev/partno /mnt/
[07:40] <VirtualJazz> anyone have a favorite dvd player for ubuntu
[07:40] <Nephelauxetic> Jay: the list of kernel modules which were not loaded
[07:41] <GrueTamer> VirtualJazz: vlc for me
[07:41] <BandB> jay; you don't get e-mail from adresses on your blacklist
[07:41] <Jay> oh
[07:41] <hjmills> VirtualJazz, totem-xine
[07:41] <linux_manju> VirtualJazz: mplayer rocks
[07:41] <Deinumite> erich85: ive never had porblems with it
[07:41] <ThePioneer> VirtualJazz: Totem
[07:41] <Ghost> ok I'll try that
[07:41] <ipx> Can I somehow restart the sound device?
[07:41] <Jay> hm
[07:41] <IndyGunFreak> Mplayer can't carry VLC's jockstrap...lol
[07:41] <johnnytang24> what's an easy to use cd burning program?
[07:41] <VirtualJazz> ok, so i've tried all of them, and the only one that DOESN'T give me the 'audio device busy/unavailable' message is VLC
[07:41] <justin420> hi all, can anybody tell me how to get smime encrypted emails to work with evolution on feisty? i have already imported my certificates and have the packages libmime-explode-perl libmime-lite-perl python-m2cyrpto.
[07:41] <IndyGunFreak> johnny_: gnomebaker
[07:41] <konam> Tomcat_ but /tmp is in the root of my disc (8GBs left)
[07:41] <zap2> is this the biggest chan on freenode?
[07:41] <BandB> something like "alsa --replace" (just guessing)
[07:41] <Mandrill> has anyone any suggestions for my problem. I've run out of ideas
[07:42] <Carb0n> linux_manju: I've got vo=xv in  my mplayer conf, but display won't come on screen
[07:42] <johnnytang24> IndyGunFreak : thanks
[07:42] <Nephelauxetic> ipx: I don't know. did you try sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart ?
[07:42] <ThePioneer> VirtualJazzL do you have anything occupying your audio device?
[07:42] <IndyGunFreak> johnny_: no prob, if you don't like it for some reason, and don't mind installing KDE libraries, try K3b
[07:42] <corevett1> zap2: yes
[07:42] <VirtualJazz> definitely not anything else running
[07:42] <VirtualJazz> it only happens on certain dvds
[07:42] <Carb0n> Nephelauxetic: sudo invoke-rc.d alsa-utils restart
[07:42] <ThePioneer> What kind of dvd?
[07:42] <VirtualJazz> for example, the matrix works fine
[07:42] <EvilBro> Okay, in serious trouble here, tried to install ubuntu next to vista on my laptop, now it doesn't work... would be greatful if someone could give me advice..
[07:42] <VirtualJazz> house of flying daggers does not
[07:43] <johnnytang24> IndyGunFreak : I don't do anything fancy, just burn isos to disk
[07:43] <Nephelauxetic> Carb0n, what's the difference?
[07:43] <BandB> EvilBro: don't us Vista *evil laugh* :p
[07:43] <erich85> Deinumite: Yeah, glxgears just looks like shit.  Will it be better upon reboot?
[07:43] <Veinor> EvilBro: Explain 'doesn't work'.
[07:43] <IndyGunFreak> johnny_: then gnomebaker will be perfect
[07:43] <ThePioneer> Try an update just see if that tweaks anything
[07:43] <IndyGunFreak> EvilBro: you're gonna need to be more specific.
[07:43] <ThePioneer> sudo apt-get update
[07:43] <Carb0n> Nephelauxetic: anal
[07:43] <ravigehlot> How do I see programs that were initialized on the daemon? ps aux isn't showing what I what
[07:43] <Deinumite> erich85: i wouldnt have evne tried it before a boot XD it needs to load on startup :P, but it should work, heh
[07:43] <Veinor> zap2: It's the biggest non-secret channel
[07:43] <EvilBro> Doesn't work = nothing boots from harddisk. CD boots, but gparted shows no partitions...
[07:44] <Deinumite> oh btw....does anyone have any issues with hibernate or logging out and in? my computer goes to a black screen if i do either....
[07:44] <VirtualJazz> yeah, i've tried updating...   no luck.  totem, totem-xine, mplayer all have the same issue
[07:44] <strabes> Deinumite: do you have an ATI video card?
[07:44] <roar_> li.it
[07:44] <VirtualJazz> but VLC works fine
[07:44] <Deinumite> strabe: yup :P i though thats what it might be
[07:44] <ralph> i'm still getting the following errors: please help me with  my apache - php  install i'm getting the following errors[Sun Jun 10 12:08:44 2007]  [error]  [client 127.0.0.1]  SoftException in Applicati

[07:44] <erich85> Deinumite: Nope... gave me a black sceen on reboot.
[07:44] <EvilBro> Specific enough?
[07:44] <ryanfaerman> Hello
[07:44] <VirtualJazz> except that VLC doesn't handle fullscreen properly in my dual monitor setup
[07:45] <Ghost> hmmm
[07:45] <erich85> Deinumite:  Fix it. :(
[07:45] <strabes> Deinumite: Finally, the perhaps most important change goes into /etc/default/acpi-support. Change the line POST_VIDEO=true to read POST_VIDEO=. This was the point when it started working on my system.
[07:45] <jrib> ralph: I asked you *not* to paste here
[07:45] <Deinumite> strabes: its a 9600
[07:45] <Ghost> brb
[07:45] <ThePioneer> If you want to use vlc thats fine. But I think you can find better audio drivers in automatix
[07:45] <strabes> Deinumite: doesn't matter. I have a mobility X1400
[07:45] <jrib> !paste > ralph (see the private message from ubotu)
[07:45] <ompaul> !automatix
[07:45] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[07:45] <Deinumite> erich85: you using just gnome to boot?
[07:45] <ThePioneer> I did, then I just uninstall automatix
[07:45] <Deinumite> strabes: alright ill check it out , thank s:D
[07:45] <erich85> Deinumite: Yes
[07:45] <sldkfj> !pastebin > ralph
[07:45] <Deinumite> erich85: did you change alot of shit before you used the restricted drivers?
[07:45] <VirtualJazz> well, let me approach this a different way
[07:46] <No> What're the commands to start and config xorg?
[07:46] <VirtualJazz> doesn't anyone know how to tell VLC which screen to display in fullscreen?
[07:46] <ralph> i pasted to to that web site
[07:46] <Deinumite> erich85: do you know of any way you can set your stuff back to default? you shoudl start from the basic ubuntu video thing...
[07:46] <newnoob> I have a noob question, I want to run a shell script ending in .sh and nothing's working
[07:46] <VirtualJazz> because all of the others will max to whichever screen the app is running on
[07:46] <VirtualJazz> except vlc
[07:46] <EvilBro> Basically I think I need to fix the MBR for vista... is that possible from a live cd?
[07:46] <FerrariDreams> QUESTION: Where can I find more information regarding the 'install' and 'make' commands? I'm going crazy over here.
[07:46] <FerrariDreams> :s
[07:46] <erich85> Deinumite: No, I have absolutely no idea how to default.  I just enabled the restricted driver.
[07:46] <Pie> What're the commands to start and config xorg?
[07:46] <Nephelauxetic> newnoob, and what? :)
[07:46] <VirtualJazz> newnoob: you have to make the script executable
[07:46] <jrib> FerrariDreams: what are you trying to do?
[07:47] <Deinumite> erich85: can you go in and use it to disable the drivers heh?
[07:47] <newnoob> how do i do that?
[07:47] <magic_ninja> man is wine being a butthead today
[07:47] <haggard> newnoob: chmod +x
[07:47] <Carb0n> Do I need to edit my xorg.conf and enable dual-monitor support to plug in an LCD projector (its a laptop)
[07:47] <sldkfj> No, look on the xorg.conf itself or... sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[07:47] <FerrariDreams> jrib, thanks! I'm trying to install 'w3m' web browser
[07:47] <erich85> Deinumite: I'm a complete newbie... I have no idea.
[07:47] <kitche> FerrariDreams: man make
[07:47] <Nephelauxetic> newnoob: chmod +x file.sh
[07:47] <FerrariDreams> But, I have to 'make' and 'install' and such. But I don't want to be a n00b, so I want to learn :)
[07:47] <erich85> Deinumite: I don't even know how to get to the console on start up.
[07:47] <FerrariDreams> man make.. THANKS!
[07:47] <jrib> FerrariDreams: are you familiar with APT and the friendly gui frontends synaptic and add/remove?
[07:47] <Deinumite> erich85: like go in and uncheck it hah
[07:47] <Deinumite> erich85: ctl alt f4 gets you to one i believe
[07:47] <FerrariDreams> Umm.. jrib, nope... Any suggestions to check something out?
[07:47] <erich85> Deinumite: No, you don't understand, I'm not getting anything upon boot now.
[07:47] <Pie> K, I'll try that, s1dkfj
[07:47] <kitche> FerrariDreams: install is used once in a while but make install is probably what you were looking for
[07:47] <erich85> Deinumite: No, that yields nothing.
[07:48] <jrib> !apt > FerrariDreams (see the private message from ubotu)
[07:48] <jrib> !synaptic > FerrariDreams (see the private message from ubotu)
[07:48] <warbox> Hi everyone, my sound works good but today when i turn on my computer the sound don't work and i dobble click the volume control and appears this: http://img508.imageshack.us/img508/5825/screenshotyx5.png
[07:48] <FerrariDreams> Kick-ASS!!! THANKS guys... I'll scream if I encounter any problems (for sure. :) ))
[07:48] <jrib> FerrariDreams: That is the first and best way you should try to install things.  Make sure you read about enabling the universe and multiverse repositories as well.  Having said that, I'm pretty sure w3m is installed by default
[07:49] <sldkfj> ferraridreams, do that
[07:49] <Carb0n> Do I need to edit my xorg.conf and enable dual-monitor support to plug in an LCD projector (its a laptop)

[07:52] <warbox> Hello ?
[07:52] <warbox> please help
[07:52] <HymnToLife> not sure about it, then... if you have a "Fn+*" keystroke to switch displays, try just plugging the monitor and hitting it a couple times
[07:52] <sldkfj> Pir, ctrl alt backspace
[07:52] <Nephelauxetic> nullkuhl, LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/fglrx/libGL.so.1.2.xlibmesa <program>
[07:52] <tim167> simplylezz, just guessing , but  do you have synaptic open at the same time ?
[07:52] <Nephelauxetic> nullkuhl... if it's an ati card
[07:52] <nullkuhl> yes its an ati
[07:52] <sldkfj> Pie, ctrl alt backspace
[07:52] <nullkuhl> where to do this ?
[07:52] <Pie> I mean the terminal command

[07:52] <warbox> that
[07:53] <simplylezz> tim167: no, synaptic was closed
[07:53] <warbox> look at it
[07:53] <Pie> when xorg isn't running and you just have the black screen and terminal
[07:53] <Carb0n> HymnToLife: I tried, but then, that doesn't switch the displays (Phoenix BIOS), so I thought you must need to edit xorg.conf
[07:53] <nullkuhl> shall i leave program as it is ?
[07:53] <nullkuhl> i mean sudnt i replace program with something
[07:53] <nullkuhl> ?
[07:53] <sldkfj> pie,   sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart   ...........it has to start with the manager
[07:53] <HymnToLife> Carb0n, seems you'll have to, yep...
[07:53] <dafan> d
[07:53] <HymnToLife> !xinerama
[07:53] <magic_ninja> is there a utility to convert the hex of wine debugging output to something readable?
[07:53] <ubotu> xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead
[07:53] <Jay> um
[07:53] <tim167> simplylezz, hmm then I have no clue, sorry
[07:54] <Carb0n> HymnToLife: Thanks
[07:54] <Nephelauxetic> nullkuhl: you can set this environment variable in you GDM session I think...
[07:54] <EvilBro> warbox: I don't know, sorry
[07:54] <warbox> ok
[07:54] <Nephelauxetic> nullkuhl, but I'm not sure :(

[07:55] <Nephelauxetic> nullkuhl, try to add it to your startxgl.sh
[07:55] <`4aFkA`> will some one help me????
[07:55] <tim167> simplylezz, do you have the right version for your computer? (64 or 32 bit )
[07:56] <FerrariDreams> 4aFka, is your networked 'bridged'?
[07:56] <erich85> Does anyone know how, from the command line, I can restore to my default video settings?  The restricted driver killed me.
[07:56] <Carb0n> HymnToLife: If I enable Xinerama, will the projector automatically configure the display?  Or should I need to press teh Fn+F5
[07:56] <sldkfj> `4aFkA`, just post your question, someone will get to you.

[07:57] <Ghost> Nothing
[07:57] <Nephelauxetic> erich85: copy back the backup of /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:57] <`4aFkA`> FerrariDreams yes it is...
[07:57] <erich85> Nephelauxetic:   Where's the backup?
[07:57] <Nephelauxetic> erich85, or edit it with a text editor and change Driver from "nvdia" or "fglrx" to "vesa"
[07:58] <Nephelauxetic> erich85, ok... no backup...
[07:58] <White-Demon> hey
[07:58] <erich85> Nephelauxetic:  Ah, I did the backup command and it didn't give me a problem.
[07:58] <`4aFkA`> FerrariDreams i configure the connection but i still don't have internet..
[07:58] <erich85> "cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup /etc/x11/xorg.conf"
[07:58] <Nephelauxetic> erich85, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:58] <erich85> Nephelauxetic:  So, reboot?
[07:58] <Nephelauxetic> erich85, restart gdm is enough.
[07:59] <Pie> I'm getting a failed to start X server message when trying to start it. It says that it is likely it is set incorrectly, but I haven't changed it for a long time. How do I go about fixing this?
[07:59] <strabes> Pie: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:59] <erich85> Nephelauxetic: Wow, what the heck do I input for these questions?
[07:59] <strabes> Pie: in tty1 (ctrl+alt+f1)
[07:59] <ThePioneer> Can anyone help me with shared folders in feisty 7.4
[07:59] <Nephelauxetic> erich85, depends on the question :D
[07:59] <erich85> Nephelauxetic: I... have no idea what my video card's bus identifier is.
[08:00] <Nephelauxetic> erich85, lspci :)
[08:00] <erich85> Nephelauxetic: Is that what I write?  The default is "PCI:0:5:0"...
[08:00] <Nephelauxetic> erich85, that should be fine
[08:01] <erich85> Nephelauxetic: How much memory do I alot to the card?  It's an Nvidia Geforce 6150, but it has... "shared" memory.
[08:01] <Nephelauxetic> erich85, depends on your card I think. 64 should be fine
[08:03] <freeagy> hi
[08:03] <Pie> I'm still getting the problem
[08:03] <freeagy> valaki magyarul?
[08:04] <zacchaeus> is an intel core duo more of an i686 or a pentium 4 when selecting binaries to install?

[08:04] <Pie> I haven't changed any setting for awhile so I don't understand why it's happening
[08:04] <bobonthenet> is there anyone in here that can help me get my insignia media player working with ubuntu?
[08:05] <erich85> Can someone walk me through the xorg reconfiguration?
[08:05] <Belboz99> Hey all, LinuxMCE trashed my network packages, I need to fix it.   I've got a 6.10 disc that I installed with, but I can't seem to be able to reinstall the required packages with it, any ideas?
[08:05] <zacchaeus> is an intel core duo more of an i686 or a pentium 4 when selecting binaries to install?
[08:05] <sx66> how do you hide the friends list on xchat?
[08:06] <Belboz99> or, if there were some way to specify a version of dhcp3 to  install, I'd be happy with that as well
[08:06] <PriceChild> zacchaeus, I don't understand the difference?
[08:06] <kitche> zacchaeus: umm depends but i686 works on anything above pentium 1
[08:06] <PriceChild> zacchaeus, a pentium4 is a i686
[08:06] <zacchaeus> me either, cinelerra is asking me which source to install from either an i686 or p4
[08:06] <sx66> sorry, how do you hide the friends list on xchat?
[08:06] <erich85> Can someone walk me through the xorg reconfiguration?   I really have no idea what answers are appropriate.
[08:06] <PriceChild> sx66, user list?
[08:06] <zacchaeus> so i presume i686
[08:06] <PriceChild> sx66, just drag it to the right from the divider
[08:07] <merrnt> How do I get my bluetooth mouse and keyboard to work on ubuntu 7.04?
[08:07] <Nephelauxetic> zacchaeus, i think p4 will add some sse stuff... should run faster...
[08:07] <Belboz99> erich85: are you using dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?
[08:07] <`4aFkA`> i use vmware as my virtual machine.. and i'm connected to internet directly but when i start the ubuntu i don't have internet...
[08:08] <erich85> Belboz99:  Yessir
[08:08] <warbox> Hi everyone, my sound works good but today when i turn on my computer the sound don't work and i dobble click the volume control and appears this: http://img508.imageshack.us/img508/5825/screenshotyx5.png
[08:08] <Belboz99> erich85: where are you stuck?
[08:08] <erich85> Identifier for video card, bus number, resolution rates...  mind if I talk to you in pvt about this, Belboz99?
[08:08] <Nephelauxetic> erich85, driver is nv I think and the rest the default options xD
[08:08] <Belboz99> erich85: sure
[08:09] <erich85> Nephelauxetic:  nv, not nvidia?
[08:09] <bobonthenet> is there anyone in here that can help me get my insignia media player working with ubuntu?
[08:09] <Ghost> how do I update to 7.04?
[08:09] <`4aFkA`> i use vmware as my virtual machine.. and i'm connected to internet directly but when i start the ubuntu i don't have internet...
[08:09] <Ghost> without reinstalling?
[08:09] <akahige> Having a problem with tsclient attaching to WinXP. It immediately gives a "error: recv: connection reset by peer"
[08:09] <IndyGunFreak> warbox: what type of sound device do you have
[08:09] <Nephelauxetic> erich85, nv is opensource and nvidia the one from nvidia
[08:09] <tabare1> new to ubuntu; tryint to use Rosegarden.no sound. any help?
[08:09] <warbox> IndyGunFreak, ati
[08:09] <Carb0n> zacchaeus: AFAIK, gcc doesn't have optimizations enabled for Core 2 Duo (correct me if I'm wrong)
[08:09] <IndyGunFreak> ati what
[08:09] <Nephelauxetic> erich85, but as you broke nvidia... try nv :D
[08:09] <Belboz99> erich85: use nv if you don't need 3d acceleration, nvidia if you have the proprietary nvidia drivers installed
[08:10] <erich85> Nephelauxetic: Belboz99:  What method do I use for setting monitor characteristics, simple, medium, or advanced?
[08:10] <Carb0n> akahige: did the WinXP box have remote desktop connection enabled?
[08:10] <Nephelauxetic> erich85, simple !
[08:10] <warbox> IndyGunFreak, how do i know exactly sound card i have ?
[08:10] <sybariten> i'm looking at some guides on how to install Subversion on ubuntu
[08:10] <sybariten> one of them says like this
[08:10] <Belboz99> erich85: simple would be easist
[08:10] <sybariten> nstall Subversion
[08:10] <sybariten> Install netkit-inetd (For Breezy only)
[08:11] <akahige> @Carb0n: yes. and I was using tsclient yesterday from another machine and had no problems

[08:11] <cybane> Does anyone else have a problem playing DVDs?
[08:11] <Ghost> How do I update to ubuntu 7.04
[08:11] <IndyGunFreak> warbox: open a terminal, and type "lspci" no quotes, after hitting enter, you'll get an output of your systems PCI devices, look for one like this...  02:09.0 Multimedia audio controller: ESS Technology ES1988 Allegro-1 (rev 12)

[08:11] <psycho13> I'd kindly like to ask if there will be an easy way to update from 7.04 to 7.10. We're thinking about installing 7.04 on many of our computers but we must be sure that the update process will not be too hard... Anybody who can tell me how hard it will be?! Thank you!

[08:13] <harry> i was in a terminal and I did cat xubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso just to see what would happen and it went all weird and now the terminal is all messed up
[08:13] <Nephelauxetic> tny5357, do you have any error messages?
[08:13] <jrib> harry: type:  reset
[08:13] <sx66> how do you set the headphones input to equal the master, so, when I use my hotkey it does both
[08:13] <tny5357> nope
[08:13] <Nephelauxetic> bad :(
[08:13] <erich85> Nephelauxetic: Belboz99:  DO I write monitor sync ranges to the config file?
[08:14] <sldkfj> warbox, ALSA is about as good as it gets for Ubuntu,  I'd give it a shot.
[08:14] <IndyGunFreak> warbox: try following Kumar's post.. see if that helps..  http://mepislovers.org/forums/archive/index.php/t-4721.html

[08:14] <Belboz99> oh, wait, yeah
[08:14] <Carb0n> akahige: I'm sorry, I'm not a networking whiz.  I used to get the connection reset by peer error, when there is a xp box without the remote desktop facility enabled
[08:14] <Nephelauxetic> so I'm off
[08:14] <Nephelauxetic> cya
[08:14] <erich85> Nephelauxetic: Thanks for your help, bye

[08:14] <erich85> Belboz99: Wait, yes?  Damn, cannot go back...
[08:14] <IndyGunFreak> warbox: also read 3d flyer's post.
[08:15] <amigrave> how can I force to smbumount to unmount a share ? I disconnected my network cable and now the mountpoint is froozen
[08:15] <akahige> @Carb0n: it's cool. maybe someone else will have an idea. from what I recall, it's just dump the ip of the machine in, select RDP, and hit go. but it's not working...
[08:15] <warbox> IndyGunFreak,  oks
[08:15] <Knoeki> is there an easy way to mount an .ISO file?
[08:16] <jrib> !iso > Knoeki (see the private message from ubotu)
[08:16] <Carb0n> akahige: Try rdesktop <ip_of_xp_box> from a terminal (used to work for me)
[08:16] <jrib> Knoeki: I believe there is some nautilus script floating around to do it as well
[08:16] <`4aFkA`> i use vmware as my virtual machine.. and i'm connected to internet directly but when i start the ubuntu i don't have internet...
[08:16] <Knoeki> jrib: ah.
[08:16] <warbox> IndyGunFreak,  i dont understand

[08:17] <Carb0n> akahige: maybe, someone else (who's more experienced) might help you out
[08:17] <sybariten> i just did an "apt-get update"

[08:17] <warbox> yeah
[08:17] <sldkfj> warbox, post in a terminal to install by commandline:  sudo apt-get install alsa-base alsa-utils gstreamer0.10-alsa

[08:23] <willemb> greetings
[08:23] <MikeInSandy> Just going to listen in to see what everyone is experiencing
[08:23] <Ghost> What clients are y'all using for IRC
[08:23] <Ghost> This one sucks lol
[08:23] <willemb> I'm on Gaim
[08:23] <warbox> IndyGunFreak, that's don't work for me :X
[08:23] <ikonia> Ghost: there are many in synaptics - take a look and try them
[08:24] <willemb> irrsi works well if you like a text interface
[08:24] <MikeInSandy> I just install XChat. First time on irc
[08:24] <ikonia> Ghost: there are many in synaptics - take a look and try them
[08:24] <willemb> Haven't been on irc myself in a while
[08:24] <IndyGunFreak> did you do what it said, the sudo rmod, etc.. if you did, you likely will have to restart X to see if it worked or not.
[08:24] <Ghost> I usually use mIRC
[08:24] <ikonia> Ghost: there are many in synaptics - take a look and try them
[08:24] <willemb> I have a question that has been bugging me for a while, who fancies himself a modern linux expert?
[08:24] <Ghost> on windows I'm going to try to get wine to work on my windows mIRC
[08:24] <omegacenti> Is there a direct command to something like evolution > tasks? I am trying to put it in my startup during sessions.
[08:24] <ikonia> willemb: just ask the question
[08:25] <IndyGunFreak> Ghost: there's many, xchat, xchat-gnome, irssi, bitchx, etc.
[08:25] <tabare1> anyone familiar with the program rosegarden, when i press play theres no sound
[08:25] <warbox> IndyGunFreak, warbox@warbox-laptop:~$ sudo rmmod snd-hda-intel
[08:25] <warbox> ERROR: Module snd_hda_intel does not exist in /proc/modules
[08:25] <Andeh> Hi
[08:25] <Ghost> I'm using xchat-gnome now
[08:25] <manone123> whois linux_manju
[08:25] <Andeh> What exactly does sendmail do?
[08:25] <jrib> omegacenti: man evolution   claims you can use '-c tasks'
[08:25] <IndyGunFreak> dont know warbox
[08:25] <willemb> what is the difference between accessing a remote network share via network:// and accessing it via a "mount -tsmbfs" ?
[08:25] <ikonia> Andeh: what it says on the tin - it sends mail, its an mta
[08:25] <Andeh> Could i use it to send an email to my GMAIL account for instance?
[08:25] <omegacenti> jrib thanks for ther pointer to man pages. forgot.
[08:25] <Ghost> IndyGunFreak: I could only get BitchX to be texted based such as the terminal
[08:25] <Andeh> or would i need something else
[08:26] <IndyGunFreak> Ghost: because thats the way its supposed to be.
[08:26] <ikonia> willemb: one does it across the network using the default network file system, the other mounts a file system
[08:26] <IndyGunFreak> Ghost: its like IRSSI
[08:26] <omegacenti> jrib: so something like /usr/bin/evolution -c tasks?
[08:26] <_Lemon_> Hey, is it wise to just install programs like SeaMonkey (Firefox+Thunderbird+chatzilla) and negate the whole application manager thing?  It currently isn't in the repositories...
[08:26] <Ghost> Oh I see
[08:26] <Andeh> ikonia: Could i use it to send mail to my GMAIL account or do i need something else?
[08:26] <ikonia> _Lemon_: no not wise at all
[08:26] <`4aFkA`> i use vmware as my virtual machine.. and i'm connected to internet directly but when i start the ubuntu i don't have internet...
[08:26] <_Lemon_> Why not?
[08:26] <ikonia> Andeh: you "could" do that
[08:26] <IndyGunFreak> Ghost: if you want an mIRC like client, use xchat, or xchat-gnome.. i personally like xchat
[08:26] <jrib> omegacenti: that should work
[08:26] <ikonia> _Lemon_: because it breaks your package manager dependencies
[08:26] <willemb> ikonia: Pretty much what I thought
[08:26] <tny5357> how do u bring up terminal while loading
[08:26] <akahige> ?? anyone an expert on terminal server client?
[08:26] <Andeh> ikonia: What's wrong with doing it?
[08:26] <Ghost> IndyGunFreak: Are you using xchat now?
[08:26] <IndyGunFreak> Ghost: yes
[08:27] <willemb> it's a pity though that only some applications can handle a location specified that way
[08:27] <ikonia> Andeh: however seems a bit over kill to set up an MTA. A client such as thunderbird will allow you to use your ISP's smtp server
[08:27] <Ghost> IndyGunFreak: Where did you get it from?
[08:27] <_Lemon_> ikonia: So how would I go about installing it via the application manager?
[08:27] <Ghost> I tried to install it and it didn't go so well
[08:27] <IndyGunFreak> Ghost: the repositories... open a terminal, sudo apt-get install xchat
[08:27] <ikonia> _Lemon_: build a package or see if it is in any of the repos
[08:27] <warbox> http://img511.imageshack.us/img511/9800/screenshot1ic2.png
[08:27] <Andeh> ikonia: So i could spam my friend using my ISP?
[08:27] <willemb> ie, I like to use vlc to watch my videos, but it doesn't understand it if I drag and drop a file from a nautilus windows with an address specified via network://
[08:27] <ikonia> Andeh: are you serious about spam ?
[08:27] <_Lemon_> ok, thanks, I'll try that! :)
[08:27] <Andeh> ikonia: I doubt my ISP would allow me to fake the from field though
[08:27] <willemb> while totem does, which I don't like it
[08:27] <MikeInSandy> Can you check the repositories to see all the software you can install
[08:28] <MikeInSandy> I just installed xchat by the sudo apt-get command
[08:28] <Ghost> I'm going to PM you
[08:28] <ikonia> Andeh: yes it will, however, if you do that from an smtp server running in your box you will be kicked off and banned from your isp, and it probably won't work any way if your on dhcp addressing due to rbl listings
[08:28] <tny5357> how do u bring up terminal while loading
[08:28] <willemb> food time, see you guys again
[08:28] <MikeInSandy> While the comp is loading
[08:28] <ikonia> tny5357: when do you mean "while loading"
[08:29] <tny5357> while ubuntu is loading
[08:29] <naruto_> how do you skin gaim?

[08:29] <Andeh> ikonia: Oh... not good then. My webhost deleted my fake mail sender telling me they don't want to host it...
[08:29] <MikeInSandy> Should be esc. while the comp is loading
[08:29] <Ghost> IndyGunFreak: I just PM'd you
[08:29] <ikonia> Andeh: its not a wise move to do that
[08:29] <tny5357> k thx

[08:29] <Ghost> should I post it here
[08:29] <omegacenti> I would really not like for that to be possible.
[08:29] <Andeh> ikonia: Everyone loved it
[08:29] <omegacenti> the gmail sendmail spam thing.

[08:30] <Ghost> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[08:30] <Ghost> ok four lol
[08:30] <Ghost> sorry guys
[08:30] <IndyGunFreak> Ghost: close synaptic package manager
[08:30] <IndyGunFreak> Ghost: close synaptic, then run the terminal command again
[08:30] <Deinumite> anyone know the easiest way to install Ubuntu onto a usb stick?
[08:30] <Ghost> Oh duh ok I'll have to wait I'm updating to 7.04
[08:30] <Yanas> How do I get root privleges to modify my mouse setup file?
[08:30] <ikonia> Deinumite: use the cdrom
[08:30] <omegacenti> Deinumite: one heck of a stick :)
[08:30] <ikonia> Yanas: sudo
[08:30] <Ghost> Do sudo
[08:30] <Andeh> ikonia: Is it possible to connect to the internet without an ISP? Can i be my own ISP?
[08:30] <omegacenti> ikonia: he has a prject, let him try it.
[08:30] <Yanas> just "sudo" ?
[08:30] <ikonia> Andeh: no
[08:30] <Deinumite> ikonia: i can use the cd and install onto the usb drive?
[08:30] <Ghost> then when it ask for you password type in your username password
[08:30] <Yanas> ah
[08:30] <ikonia> omegacenti: who/ what ?
[08:30] <Yanas> thanks
[08:30] <ikonia> Deinumite: yes
[08:31] <D4M13N> o/
[08:31] <erich85> Hey guys, now my audio stammers, but I fixed my graphics.
[08:31] <omegacenti> ikonia: sorry, can he actually use the cdrom to install ubuntu onto a usb stick
[08:31] <Deinumite> ikonia: how big is the defualt size for ubuntu?
[08:31] <Andeh> ikonia: If it's not possible to be an ISP, how can ISPs be ISPs?
[08:31] <erich85> Some sounds are making my audio repeat and stutter endlessly until reboot.
[08:31] <ikonia> omegacenti: yes
[08:31] <ikonia> Deinumite: 2 gig I think
[08:31] <erich85> I've fixed this in the past, I added a word or two to some document some where, but I can't remember what I googled to find this solution.
[08:31] <ikonia> Andeh: thats not for this channel's discussion
[08:31] <omegacenti> ikonia: oh, I thought you were being fecetious, my sincere apologies :)
[08:31] <Deinumite> ikonia: uh oh...my sticks 2 gig i think :P
[08:31] <D4M13N> hello all, is there anyone on who can help me with a dual booting problem on a  ubuntu / xp install
[08:31] <Andeh> ikonia: ...
[08:31] <ikonia> omegacenti: not at all
[08:31] <Ghost> IndyGunFreak: Does XChat have mutliserver capablities?
[08:31] <Deinumite> ikonia: gparted loads but doesnt see my disk....so i need to find a way around it
[08:32] <sivik> D4M13N, it shouldn't be that hard, i do it all the time
[08:32] <sivik> D4M13N, whats the problem
[08:32] <ikonia> Deinumite: why do you want it on a usb - its going to be a lot of hassle booting from usb etc etc
[08:32] <IndyGunFreak> Ghost: i think so, not 100% sure though, i only come here to Freenode.
[08:32] <omegacenti> Deinumite: if you figure out a way please tell me :)
[08:32] <Kale_Tainer> apparently my internet conn is intermittent and irc is failing so will have to do this via the forums, sorry for the trouble
[08:32] <D4M13N> well from the start i've had problems
[08:32] <Ghost> Freenode?
[08:32] <Ghost> sorry
[08:32] <omegacenti> ikonia: it might not be on a usb2 stick that has a pc that allows usb booting. or would it still be a hassle do you think?
[08:32] <sivik> D4M13N, ok, did u install windows and then ubuntu on a different partition
[08:32] <Deinumite> ikonia: gparted not loading up my harddrive :( the live cd anyways, the gparted while running ubuntu does
[08:32] <jimmygoon> Andeh, if you had a lot of money you could, but then again, you could just buy hosting set up a few php scripts and fake all the from mail headers you wanted until they suspended your account, but its a bad idea and there's likely a better solution
[08:32] <ikonia> omegacenti: real pain in the neck
[08:32] <sivik> D4M13N, and then added the grub to the master boot and not to a certain partition
[08:32] <TaJMoX> Can someone take a look at this for me?  I never get a reply and have posted twice already: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=469962
[08:33] <omegacenti> ikonia: I would still think it would be cool :)
[08:33] <MikeInSandy> Some comps wont let you boot from usb...the bios is not able
[08:33] <D4M13N> i installed xp on the machine and left the drive in 3 partitions 3x 100gb
[08:33] <ikonia> omegacenti: I think its porr
[08:33] <ikonia> poor
[08:33] <D4M13N> the 1st petrtition being xp
[08:33] <sivik> D4M13N, ok, then how did u go about installing ubuntu?
[08:33] <omegacenti> ikonia: even with 460+ mbit/sec throughput?
[08:33] <ikonia> omegacenti: yes
[08:33] <sivik> D4M13N, talk to me in pm
[08:33] <D4M13N> i downloaded the live cd and urned it to cd
[08:33] <omegacenti> ikonia: oh... well then....
[08:34] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[08:34] <ikonia> IndyGunFreak: todays gag is........
[08:34] <Deinumite> ikonia: could i use gparted from the ubuntu live cd? the gparted live cd doesnt detect my harddrive for some reason
[08:34] <sivik> D4M13N, ok, then how did u go about installing ubuntu and where are you trying to put grub, and grub should find the xp already on the machine and add it to its menu
[08:34] <IndyGunFreak> ikonia: i just love your answers, even when you're not funny.
[08:34] <ikonia> Deinumite: whats the gparted livecd ?
[08:34] <ikonia> IndyGunFreak: ha ha, glad to please
[08:34] <Veinor> I need help with azureus: my torrents keep going down to 0 kb/s
[08:34] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[08:34] <jimmygoon> Ghost, yes it does. Go to Xchat -> New -> Server Tab
[08:34] <Deinumite> ikonia: im not sure which version it is, but i do know that ive used it before on my same harddrive multiple times
[08:34] <omegacenti> Sometimes my cursor just DISSAPPEARS and I have to mouse over a lot of things/ click windows to see it again. Any suggestions?
[08:34] <Ghost> Ok thanks :)
[08:34] <Ghost> Hey
[08:35] <Yanas> Do I just run "sudo -l" in the terminal? Because I did it that way, and I still cant save over my old xorg.conf
[08:35] <MikeInSandy> Probably the torrent are not being shared anymore
[08:35] <Ghost> does /msg chanserv register work?
[08:35] <ikonia> Deinumite: why have you downloaded a live cd just to use gparted when its already on the ubuntu livecd
[08:35] <Ghost> nickserv I mean
[08:35] <ikonia> Yanas: sudo vi /etc/xorg.conf
[08:35] <sivik> Veinor, that doesn't sound like a software issue, just let it run, the 0 kb/s just has to do with there isn't any ppl that are letting upload currently
[08:35] <Deinumite> ikonia: i used it before using Ubuntu, and i didnt realize i could use it XD
[08:35] <IndyGunFreak> Ghost: its something like that.
[08:35] <erich85> Anyone know how to fix Ubuntu's audio from stuttering?
[08:35] <Veinor> sivik: No, it goes OK at first and then stops. then if I restart it works again.
[08:35] <tny5357> anyone now why ubuntu freezes at the loading screen?
[08:35] <MikeInSandy> For example when you completed a download to you quit Azaurus or leave it running to share the file.
[08:35] <omegacenti> Yanas: I am not sure, but if you want to edit your xorg.conf try gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf or try sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf

[08:35] <D4M13N> i'm in pm

[08:37] <D4M13N> i'm using the one in ubuntu
[08:37] <jrib> Ghost: ubotu is a supybot
[08:37] <Ghost> PHP is some powful stuff
[08:37] <tny5357> anyone now why ubuntu freezes at the loading screen?
[08:37] <MikeInSandy> Ive had problems with Ubuntu freezing during my first attempt at an install...I just used Derecks Boot and Nuke to completely wipe all drives then reinstalled with no problems
[08:37] <EnsignRedshirt> Did anybody here use Warty when it came out? I could swear it *wasn't* a Live CD--I though the Live CD was added in a later version--but I've seen references to Warty being a Live CD.
[08:37] <ikonia> tny5357: do you have any more info
[08:37] <Ghost> Is there a place to download the script?
[08:37] <IndyGunFreak> !alternate | MikeInSandy
[08:37] <ubotu> MikeInSandy: 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
[08:37] <ikonia> EnsignRedshirt: I thought they had an install and a live cd - two different cd's
[08:37] <ikonia> Ghost: no
[08:37] <D4M13N> are you getting my pm's i saw your hello and  ????????????????????????????//
[08:38] <Ghost> oh ok
[08:38] <EnsignRedshirt> ikonia: Even with Warty?
[08:38] <jrib> Ghost: supybot is packaged and ubotu's source is on launchpad
[08:38] <ikonia> EnsignRedshirt: not certain but i think so
[08:38] <Yanas> |omegacenti| Thanks, it worked.
[08:38] <tny5357> not really i dont know how to look for error msgs
[08:38] <IndyGunFreak> D4M13N: if you're not registerd, i don't believe you can send pMs... could be wrong
[08:38] <omegacenti> Yanas: no problem.
[08:38] <Ghost> Is it free to use and change
[08:38] <jrib> EnsignRedshirt: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/4.10/ has an iso for the live cd at least

[08:39] <avihaiorel76> fat32
[08:39] <rinky3> a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, a proposal intended to explain certain facts or observations
[08:39] <ikonia> avihaiorel76: I don't think fat32 supports permissions
[08:39] <sivik> D4M13N, yes, but since you don't want to talk to me in pm, i'm tried of having to type ur name to get u to see it
[08:39] <avihaiorel76> really!?
[08:39] <Yanas> I really like how this OS seems all user oriented and run. And how even things like this are here to help out beginners.
[08:39] <avihaiorel76> on fedora I did it easily.
[08:40] <AFaith> hello people... is anybody willing to play  a openarena game now ?

[08:40] <jrib> avihaiorel76: use umask=0000 as an option when you mount

[08:48] <tny5357> UBUNTU in big letters and a progress bar right below that
[08:49] <ikonia> no other text
[08:49] <thechris> ikonia: in fstab, copied from a working fstab from another box
[08:49] <novato_br> now, I want what is the software to save movies the beryl working?
[08:49] <tny5357> nope
[08:49] <nullkuhl> i have beryl runnin on xgl in feisty with ati card,,, its workin so fine with the core downgrade to version 2.0 ,,, but i have no direct rendering in this session Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display "localhost:1.0". direct rendering:
[08:49] <cox377> does anyone know a command that will restart all usb devices?
[08:49] <Funkah> Sounds like a p[irate copy, tny5357
[08:49] <ikonia> thechris: Hmmmmm take it out and boot it without first of all
[08:49] <tny5357> i got it from Ubuntu.com
[08:49] <ikonia> cox377: what do you mean restart usb devices - how do you restart a ahard disk
[08:49] <Funkah> So you think..
[08:49] <ikonia> tny5357: what hardware are you running on
[08:49] <thechris> ikonia: it seems to have mounted it, but the command never terminated
[08:49] <ikonia> Funkah: what are you talking about
[08:50] <ikonia> thechris: hence why I say take it out and lets check out the other stuff first
[08:50] <D4M13N> msg nickserv register <berry051105>
[08:50] <sldkfj> novato_br, xvidcap
[08:50] <cox377> ikonia: i have a USB KVM switch and for some reason when coming back to this particular ubuntu machine it doesnt always detect and i have to restart - i have a PS2 keboard connected so it would be good if i could bring up terminal then restart the usb connection
[08:50] <tny5357> pentium 4 2.8ghz, pny geforce fx 5500, sound blaster, 512 mem
[08:51] <ikonia> cox377: sounds like the box is going to sleep but not detecting movement due to the kvm
[08:51] <nullkuhl> i have beryl runnin on xgl in feisty with ati card,,, its workin so fine with the core downgrade to version 2.0 ,,, but i have no direct rendering in this session Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display "localhost:1.0". direct rendering:
[08:51] <ikonia> tny5357: that sounds pretty rasonable
[08:51] <ikonia> tny5357: shouldn't cause a problem
[08:51] <cox377> ikonia: have you got any recommendations?
[08:51] <ikonia> cox377: disable power managment ?
[08:51] <ikonia> try plugging in a mouse and keyboard direct to see if it wakes up
[08:52] <aroo> I have my wifi card working perfectly with ndiswrapper, but I have to set it all up each time at boot, is there anyway to get it to work on boot?
[08:52] <tny5357> i thought u could press a button at the loading screen to see text, and error msgs are displyed there
[08:52] <ikonia> tny5357: you have to remove the "silent" option from the boot options when it boots
[08:52] <thechris> ikonia: ok, what would you check first?
[08:52] <tny5357> ok ill go try that brb
[08:53] <cox377> ikonia: i dont think it's definatly going to sleep because i switch between the machines all the time and it may only be 5 seconds or so
[08:53] <ikonia> thechris: I'd boot it manually first of all, then use the exact options out of the fstab to mount it and check response times and how it responds and the sys log
[08:53] <Corvinis-V> Anyone know of a good linux php filemanager ?
[08:53] <ikonia> cox377: that seems a reasonable suggestion
[08:54] <ikonia> Corvinis-V: php is a web based application manager
[08:54] <ikonia> Corvinis-V: I've not seen it used to write "desktop" or non-web based applications
[08:54] <tny5357> ok i took of quiet but it still doesnt show n e text
[08:55] <ikonia> tny5357: I'll have to check the options, I may have told you the wrong one
[08:55] <ikonia> it may be add verbose
[08:55] <ikonia> I've not chnged them for a while
[08:55] <jamyskis> ikonia: php is a server-side web programming language (not client-side markup like html)
[08:55] <Corvinis-V> there are webbased filemanagers that you can use for up and downloading.... even editing files and folder in the rootfolder you specify?
[08:55] <ikonia> jamyskis: yes, I know this
[08:55] <ikonia> Corvinis-V: ahhh I see what you mean now. Try asking in #php
[08:55] <Corvinis-V> ok ty
[08:56] <thechris> ikonia: command never finishes
[08:57] <ikonia> thechris: ok - so you know its not a problem, its something to do with the fact that the nfs share cannot be mounted
[08:58] <thechris> ikonia: no, the nfs share gets mounted, but the command never finishes
[08:58] <ikonia> yes, so there is a problem with the mount
[08:58] <thechris> ikonia: oh, there it goes,  the command finished just now.
[08:59] <ikonia> ok, so sounds like it takes a long time to find a network route back for the ack
[08:59] <thechris> ikonia: ok, so why would that be.  the computers are connected by a switch
[09:00] <ikonia> no idea of the top of my head
[09:00] <ikonia> I'd have to ponder
[09:00] <thechris> ikonia: i seem to remeber nfs in ubuntu 6.xx having the same issues
[09:00] <lynucs> hell.. maybe someone can help.. where are the settings in gnome/nautilus (dunno), which operation will be executed, when i hold the mousepointer above an audiofile in nautilus??
[09:01] <ikonia> thechris: interesting, could it be something silly like your portmapper is not open on the default route and has to find another ?
[09:01] <ikonia> thechris: just throwing random ideas at you
[09:03] <padee> hello everyone. i don't want to bother, but does anyone know what to do, that ubuntu would clean the desktop before shuting down the system? thanks.
[09:04] <pike_> padee: i dont think i understood the question can you rephrase?
[09:04] <ikonia> padee: what do you mean clear the desktop
[09:04] <secleinteer> hi, does anyone know how i can install the sun java compiler?
[09:05] <ikonia> secleinteer: yeah there is a guide on the forum
[09:05] <ikonia> !java
[09:05] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[09:05] <lynucs> padee, i think you could write ascript.. not bad idea you have! want have it too
[09:05] <secleinteer> thx ikonia
[09:05] <omegacenti> Is there anything like netmonitor for windows in ubuntu? I need a breakdown by essid , channel used, wireless type, and signal strengths.
[09:05] <padee> pike_: hm, i am running an linux internetcafe... and i would like to have the desktop cleaned for the next customer...
[09:05] <omegacenti> PReferably Graphically
[09:05] <ikonia> omegacenti: ntop
[09:06] <omegacenti> ikonia: is it graphical?
[09:06] <andres_> I need help with my TV card, the video works but not the sound, I only hear static. please help
[09:06] <ikonia> padee: change the permissions so that the home dir is read only so they can't change the desktop
[09:06] <ikonia> omegacenti: or mount /home readonly from a central point
[09:06] <ikonia> omegacenti: not gui, but terminal graphical
[09:06] <padee> ikonia: that works?
[09:06] <lynucs> ikonia: i guess it should be possible still to download a file to desktop
[09:06] <ikonia> omegacenti: forget "mount" comment that was for padee
[09:06] <omegacenti> ikonia: what do you mean mount /home readonly from a central point?
[09:06] <ikonia> lynucs: no it won't
[09:06] <omegacenti> ikonia: lol k
[09:07] <lynucs> oh
[09:07] <ikonia> padee: yup
[09:07] <pike_> padee: you could have a script that runs at startup to rm -fr ~/Desktop/*  thats easiest way i guess. im not sure in gnome where then menu entry is for adding things to run at login
[09:07] <lynucs> ok ;)
[09:07] <ikonia> just make /home/$user read only
[09:07] <ikonia> chmod -R 600
[09:07] <ikonia> on ~Desktop
[09:07] <ikonia> something like that
[09:07] <Yanas> 1 hour and still no 4th and 5th button fuctionality. :[
[09:07] <pike_> padee: ignore me and go with ikonia thats a better solution
[09:07] <lynucs> padee: do it like pike_ said :)
[09:07] <pike_> lol
[09:07] <lynucs> lol
[09:08] <ompaul> !mouse | Yanas
[09:08] <ubotu> Yanas: Enabling extra mouse buttons: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto  - Enabling serial mouse: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SerialMouseHowto
[09:08] <padee> hehe... thanks to you all... so which solution is the best one?
[09:08] <ompaul> Yanas, ^^ that was pointed to you an hour ago
[09:08] <lynucs> again my q: where are the settings in gnome/nautilus (dunno), which operation will be executed, when i hold the mousepointer above an audiofile in nautilus?? maybe now someone knows?
[09:09] <ikonia> lynucs: in preferences
[09:09] <Yanas> Yeah, neither way worked. I'm probably just doing something wrong.
[09:09] <omegacenti> ikonia: Is kismet still around?
[09:09] <lynucs> ikonia: prefs of what
[09:09] <ikonia> omegacenti: I don't know
[09:09] <ikonia> lynucs: nautilus
[09:09] <Yanas> Or maybe that i'm using a mouse that is connected to my laptop? And Ubuntu thinks i'm modifying the touchpad?
[09:09] <padee> ikonia: so, i have an guest-login... and i change permissions to read only for user, group and other, right?
[09:09] <lynucs> hmm.. didnt find there anything.. i'll try again then :D
[09:09] <ikonia> padee: leave the home dir with write permissions but the desktop dir to 600
[09:09] <ikonia> or 660
[09:09] <Deinumite> :( my bios wont recognize any of my two cd drives to boot :(
[09:10] <ikonia> Deinumite: not an ubuntu issue
[09:10] <omegacenti> ikonia: ntop seems a little hard to use. pointers?
[09:11] <ikonia> omegacenti: just read up on it, its really quite easy, I think you're just scared by the default presentation of the interface
[09:11] <aroo> Is it possible to remove the  boot splash?
[09:11] <lynucs> ikonia: found it, but i don't want to jsut switch it off/on.. i'd like to play the sound via esd
[09:11] <ikonia> lynucs: its under there somewhere
[09:12] <heroin> i installed fluxbox and i just hooked up my external USB device.. now hou would i mount it? iam using flubox
[09:12] <omegacenti> ikonia: it started throwing a lot of stuff at me and Im not sure I executed it correctly
[09:12] <omegacenti> ikonia: first i opened a terminal and typed ntop
[09:12] <omegacenti> ikonia: that didn't seem to work so then I tried sudo ntop
[09:12] <ikonia> omegacenti: did you man it or read up on it - or just type "ntop"
[09:13] <ikonia> heroin: flux box is not intergrated with hal as far as I'm aware so you have to mount from a terminal using the mount command
[09:13] <omegacenti> ikonia: typed ntop... guess I should rtfm.
[09:13] <ikonia> omegacenti: you got it
[09:13] <lynucs> ikonia: beat me, but i can't find any parameters there.. just the preference of palying only local files, all files, or nothing
[09:13] <omegacenti> ikonia:  :) thanks
[09:13] <ikonia> lynucs: it is there, I'm not on an ubuntu box at this second so cna't look
[09:13] <heroin> ikonia: ok but how can i find out which /dev/foo it is?
[09:13] <lynucs> darn
[09:13] <padee> ikonia: i changed /home/guest/Desktop to 600... but now it gives me an error message
[09:13] <ikonia> heroin: look in the syslog
[09:13] <ikonia> padee: whats the error
[09:14] <heroin> ikonia: where do i do that?
[09:14] <Endlessguitar> hello
[09:14] <ikonia> heroin: in the syslog in /var/log
[09:14] <padee> ikonia: one second
[09:14] <bullgard4> What DEB Program package contains the program 'Network Tools'?
[09:14] <omegacenti> ikonia: What is a front-end collector? it says something about netflow and sflow
[09:14] <heroin> ikonia: thanks
[09:14] <Endlessguitar> hello what for dvd program will I use in linux feisty fawn?
[09:14] <tondar> hey all
[09:14] <ikonia> Endlessguitar: there is a guide on the ubuntu forums
[09:14] <matthew> hello every
[09:14] <ikonia> !dvd >endlessguitar
[09:14] <tondar> any new stuff for 'buntu?
[09:15] <ikonia> omegacenti: front end collector is your interface into the card
[09:15] <ikonia> tondar: no
[09:15] <tondar> ikonia: uh man
[09:15] <omegacenti> ikonia: I don't know what you mean by interface into the card.
[09:15] <matthew> I'm still struggling to install the w32codecs and I wonder if anybody could semi-assist me?
[09:15] <ikonia> omegacenti: have a read on up it, it will click
[09:16] <omegacenti> ikonia: reading.. not understading much.. like the need for a web browser to view the info...
[09:16] <heroin> ikonia: which log in logs?
[09:16] <padee> ikonia: unable to create gnome-directory... and other error msgs
[09:16] <heroin> ikonia: nevermind that :D
[09:16] <ikonia> omegacenti: you don't need a web brower
[09:16] <ikonia> padee: stick them in a pastebin, lets take a look
[09:16] <omegacenti> ikonia: straight from man:
[09:16] <omegacenti> A  web  browser  is  needed  to
[09:16] <omegacenti>        access the information captured by the ntop program.
[09:16] <scott_> test
[09:16] <sldkfj> lynucs, play files in nautilus:  http://www.ubuntugeek.com/audio-preview-in-nautilus.html
[09:16] <ikonia> omegacenti: ahhhh thats on file based output
[09:16] <ikonia> omegacenti: yes, for that your right
[09:17] <omegacenti> ikonia: oh... no idea what that is.
[09:17] <ikonia> omegacenti: have you ever used sar
[09:17] <omegacenti> ikonia: assume no. )
[09:17] <mandh>  any one can help me how to encrypt file that size more 2 Giga
[09:17] <ikonia> omegacenti: read up on sar and everything will click into place
[09:17] <padee> ikonia: pastebin? i dont know how to do that... and furthermore, i am connected to the other pc via ssh... so...
[09:17] <pgs> r
[09:17] <omegacenti> ikonia: no manual entry for sar.
[09:17] <j1tters> anyone here know how to unzip .daa files?
[09:17] <ikonia> padee: I can't help you if you can't share info
[09:18] <ikonia> omegacenti: come up - you've not got it installed, install it or search the web
[09:18] <RivaeAerya> Can anybody help me get free up space on my harddisk? I have a Linux/Windows dual-boot and Linux has 65GB harddisk space, Windows has 16. But, that diskspace has filled itself up FAST, how do i remove all the crap that got in?
[09:18] <ikonia> j1tters: what make you think its zipped
[09:18] <omegacenti> ikonia: come up?
[09:18] <PeDePano> has anyone here installed a Atheros wireless device on ubuntu 7.04 using madwifi drivers?
[09:18] <heroin> ikonia: thanks mate works really well
[09:18] <ikonia> omegacenti: "come on"
[09:18] <ikonia> heroin: cool
[09:18] <j1tters> not zipped but compressed.
[09:18] <matthew> could anybody link me to the section of the ubuntu website that assists in w32codecs?
[09:18] <thechris> ok, this is getting ridiculous.  is there a single gnome app that just lets me add music files to a playlist and doesn't try to catalog them in any way?
[09:18] <ikonia> j1tters: depends how it we comparessed
[09:18] <ikonia> !w32
[09:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about w32 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:18] <omegacenti> ikonia: I am trying :( I don't know much about how things work in linux quite yet...
[09:18] <padee> ikonia: i would love to... i will send you the err msg...
[09:18] <RivaeAerya> thechris: Audacious
[09:19] <ikonia> omegacenti: I know - but come on you know how to use the net - how do you expect man pages to be there if its not installed
[09:19] <matthew> will do... thanks
[09:19] <ikonia> padee: super
[09:19] <j1tters> its a power iso file. but i dont know how to do it under nix.
[09:19] <omegacenti> ikonia: some applications might not have man pages?
[09:19] <LordV8r> question
[09:19] <ikonia> omegacenti: some don't - but ones that you don't have installed won't be on your system
[09:19] <ikonia> LordV8r: ask it
[09:19] <lynucs> ikonia: maybe you could mail me or sth when you're back on your ubuntu box and tell me wher i find it?? :D you mean open nautilus -> edit -> preferences? there are defenitely no parameters for how to execute the audio "prehear"
[09:19] <lynucs> sorry for stressing by te way
[09:20] <lynucs> :)
[09:20] <LordV8r> When I enable Desktop Effects my screen goes blank? anyone know how to fix?
[09:20] <vince_> Anybody else having boot problems with the 2.6.20 kernels?
[09:20] <ikonia> lynucs: nah, its a bit more burried than that
[09:20] <omegacenti> ikonia: without prior knowledge who would I have known that?
[09:20] <vince_> I get a complete boot freeze everytime
[09:20] <ikonia> omegacenti: well you should be reading the ubuntu.com website and guides to learn
[09:20] <sldkfj> lynucs, Preview audio files from Nautilus:  http://www.ubuntugeek.com/audio-preview-in-nautilus.html
[09:20] <PeDePano> has anyone here installed a Atheros wireless device on ubuntu 7.04 using madwifi drivers?
[09:20] <lynucs> sldkfj: thx i'll take a look
[09:20] <seon> hello
[09:20] <ikonia> omegacenti: to get a basic grasp on linux, have a look through the docs on www.tldp.org
[09:20] <pike_> PeDePano: yeah i just grabed linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r)
[09:20] <orbin> RivaeAerya: i'd use a disk usage analyzer and work out what's taking up space
[09:21] <seon> do you know a FTP Client with a graphical tool
[09:21] <ikonia> seon: gftp
[09:21] <_nano_> gftp i guess?
[09:21] <omegacenti> ikonia: I am spread to thin.. I think I am going to go read rute for a little bit.
[09:21] <omegacenti> too*
[09:21] <ikonia> omegacenti: check tldp.org
[09:21] <pike_> PeDePano: for some reason i had a wlan0 device as well that needed to be up for ath0 to work.. i never looked into it
[09:21] <LordV8r> Anyone know why Desktop Effects doesn't do anything but show me a white screen?

[09:34] <andreww> I have a quick question, It seems that my firefox cant handle embedded flash, on lets say myspace...It just ends up crashing firefox and it will not load the music in which the flash is
[09:34] <wattazoum> question : is there a way to mount a ssh location via sshfs by giving the password as an option ?
[09:34] <Veinor> soyporti: Why's it mounted ro?
[09:34] <j1tters> is there a way to tell dpkg to install all dependant packages?
[09:34] <Flannel> j1tters: check out gdebi
[09:35] <soyporti> ro? what is ro?
[09:35] <soyporti> ahh
[09:35] <Veinor> read-only
[09:35] <soyporti> i see
[09:35] <Veinor> as opposed to rw
[09:35] <wattazoum> lol, aigarius was here :p
[09:35] <soyporti> don't now how to make it read and write using gparted
[09:35] <raiden_> soyporti try  mount /device /mountpoint -t ext3 -o remount,rw
[09:36] <soyporti> where can i choose between ro or rw?
[09:36] <blah569> Whats your favorite programming language in here?  Mine is php.
[09:37] <zipper> blah569: isnt php more of a scripting language? Anyway, to answer your question, i like c and c++
[09:37] <soyporti> veinor: when i create a partition how can i set the type? ro or rw?
[09:37] <wattazoum> question : is there a way to mount a ssh location via sshfs by giving the password as an option ? <- anybody ?
[09:37] <Veinor> soyporti: try unmounting and remounting it
[09:38] <islan> hey, I'm running Xubuntu with Xfce, and the top and bottom menu bars have disappeared.  can anyone inform me on how to fix it, or point me to a helpful article?
[09:38] <soyporti> how ?
[09:38] <pike_> soyporti: gksu gedit /etc/fstab  for drives that mount automatically
[09:38] <lynucs> ikonia: i made it :) just changed in conffile of libao the driver to esd :)

[09:38] <bcartolo> Hi I am having a problem here
[09:39] <j1tters> thanks Flannel . duh. i should have done that in the first place
[09:39] <pike_> islan: alt-ctrl-f2 then login the xfce4-panel& then alt-f7 to get back to gui... it think that is the right command for panel in xfce
[09:39] <andreww> Question, I cant seem to open my own recordmydesktop output file, Im pretty sure i have the right codecs, and when i load it in VLC Player it just opens and closes, and with other players its all the same
[09:39] <bcartolo> Can somebody help me?
[09:39] <islan>  pike_ thanks I'll try it out
[09:39] <bcartolo> I think I destroyed apt - get
[09:39] <blah569> Zipper:  I wouldn't want to consider php a scripting language, but w/e.  Anyway, I like C++, but not as much as php.  I can show you a some source of one of real old sites (arround 956 lines) and you can tell me what you think.  (Weather it is a scriping language or a programming language) if you want.
[09:39] <bcartolo> :S
[09:39] <kitsune> Is there anyway to see what processes are being loaded when logining in? When I log in, it takes a VERY long time for the apps I have put on startup to come up. I think it is hanging up on one of them
[09:39] <lynucs> ikonia, its pack of irony? ;)
[09:39] <sldkfj> first of all, it's not    apt - get    it's     apt-get
[09:39] <ikonia> lynucs: no, I mean that. Well done
[09:40] <cain`> hey all! i need a dell bios update because my 300gb hd is not fully supported now, but there is no systemid like mine

[09:41] <bcartolo> but now apt doesnt work
[09:41] <ikonia> bcartolo: copying direct without knowing or undertanding is never a good idea

[09:41] <omegacenti> okay I have tried slocate *readme* and I can't find the readme for kismet... Suggestions?
[09:41] <andreww> Anyone?  Help with my video codec issues?  Ive tried installing them using automatix, i thought that would work
[09:42] <LVKeulen> Hello? I'm having a big problem here.
[09:42] <omegacenti> !automatix | andreww
[09:42] <ubotu> andreww: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[09:42] <Yanas> Anye know the command to edit a file in root mode?
[09:42] <ikonia> omegacenti: the read me's are normally in the source dir and are called "ReadMe" or "README"
[09:42] <Yanas> like, gsudo gedit or something
[09:42] <omegacenti> ikonia: where is the source dir?
[09:42] <LVKeulen> uh.. sudo nano whatever?
[09:42] <LVKeulen> i don't know :|
[09:42] <IndyGunFreak> Yanas: use gksudo gedit
[09:42] <soyporti> i reduce the NTFS partition and create a ext3 logical, but now i need to move the files from the NTFS part to the ext3, so i can reformat that ntfs part also into ext3. but the ext3 partition is RO. what should i do????
[09:42] <ikonia> omegacenti: once again, your running before walking
[09:42] <bcartolo> here is the URL http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=20342
[09:42] <Yanas> GK. ahh, thanks.
[09:42] <LVKeulen> anyway

[09:42] <islan>  pike_ : yeah, I'm back in the gui, but the panels are still gone
[09:42] <bcartolo> of the how to

[09:45] <soyporti> anyone can help me?
[09:45] <IndyGunFreak> eyemean: if it messed it up, then you did something wrong
[09:45] <tim167> IndyGunFreak, I prefer thunar, becaus it loads alot quicker
[09:45] <islan>  pike_ : okay, I think I've found the article I need, thankees
[09:45] <IndyGunFreak> tim167: i agree, i like thunar also, but obviously you'rehaving an issue with it.

[09:46] <tim167> IndyGunFreak, I could live with yet another alternative, but preferably not Rox, any tips ?
[09:47] <IndyGunFreak> tim167: not really, i personally like Thunar and nautilus..
[09:47] <magnetron> LVKeulen: could you please repeat your question, in one message? (one line) easier to understand then
[09:47] <soyporti> please a terminal command to remount a partition RO as RW!!
[09:47] <IndyGunFreak> tim167: i guess you could try konq
[09:47] <Salazar_> is ubotu still here?
[09:47] <eyemean> with the standard driver installed the dektop effects work fine
[09:47] <magnetron> !botsnack
[09:47] <ubotu> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[09:47] <IndyGunFreak> salami: ubotu is a bot... just ask your question.
[09:47] <eyemean> but my problem is when i watch videos
[09:47] <DanaG> I'm trying to set up dnsmasq on my system, but the option "prepend domain-name-servers" in dhclient.conf seems not to work.

[09:48] <IndyGunFreak> Salazar_: whats the problem, its easy?
[09:48] <Salazar_> lol..... you nerd
[09:48] <Salazar_> j/k
[09:48] <tim167> InkyGunFreak you mean Konqueror ? isnt that even heavier than Nautilus ?

[09:48] <eyemean> then if i move screen in sube mode or even move the video player alightly it goes black
[09:48] <Salazar_> but yeah.... i'm not to apt at getting things done in linux
[09:49] <IndyGunFreak> tim167: yes..lol, i was just trying to think of an alternative..lol

[09:49] <Salazar_> feisty
[09:49] <IndyGunFreak> Salazar_: did you follow the instructions?
[09:49] <DanaG> How do I get it to work?
[09:49] <Salazar_> Well.... yes.... and no
[09:49] <magnetron> Salazar_: you can use Synaptic, the graphical tool to install packages
[09:49] <soyporti> salazar_: your problem is with the video formats dvd and stuff?
[09:49] <Salazar_> well... yeah
[09:49] <LVKeulen> Can anyone help with my virtual machine problem?
[09:49] <Salazar_> and avi
[09:49] <soyporti> ok
[09:49] <Salazar_> Synaptic will work for w32?
[09:50] <IndyGunFreak> Salazar_: so you need w32codecs and libdvdcss
[09:50] <magnetron> LVKeulen: please repeat you question, in one line
[09:50] <Salazar_> with repostitory alteratioN?
[09:50] <Salazar_> yes
[09:50] <Salazar_> and mplayer and stuff but mainly just w32codec
[09:50] <Salazar_> installed
[09:50] <soyporti> what kind of format is giving you trouble?
[09:50] <IndyGunFreak> Salazar_: are you registered?
[09:50] <Salazar_> negative
[09:50] <IndyGunFreak> ok
[09:50] <magnetron> Salazar_: yes start synaptic. System > administration > synaptic
[09:50] <LVKeulen> alright magnetron
[09:50] <LVKeulen> My question:
[09:51] <magnetron> one line LVKeulen!

[09:51] <IndyGunFreak> !enter | LVKeulen
[09:51] <ubotu> LVKeulen: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[09:51] <Salazar_> synaptic is open
[09:51] <LVKeulen> I am running VirtualBox, but my virtual hard drive im using has gone bad, and it is inaccessible. I believe the header has gone wrong. What now?
[09:51] <Salazar_> search libdvdcss?
[09:51] <Yanas> Sweet. :]  All 5 buttons are working, thanks everyone.
[09:52] <eyemean> any idea about how i can sort my problem out? indygunfreak
[09:52] <magnetron> great Salazar_ start with search for w32
[09:52] <IndyGunFreak> eyemean: no
[09:52] <leonidas> hello everyone
[09:52] <Salazar_> k
[09:52] <eyemean> oh well, cheers m8
[09:52] <Salazar_> mingw32 and alternates are my results
[09:53] <IndyGunFreak> Salazar_: libdvdcss2 is not going to be in the default repositories, you'll have to add one.
[09:53] <Salazar_> kk.... just add multiverse or something?
[09:53] <IndyGunFreak> Salazar_: no, a third party repo.
[09:53] <Salazar_> I'm not too great with manual repository adds
[09:53] <magnetron> Salazar_: ok my mistake, check your repositories.
[09:53] <Salazar_> but I can try
[09:53] <IndyGunFreak> Salazar_: type this w/o quotes, i'll talk you through it.. "/join #indygunfreak"

[09:55] <Thorne> omegacenti: is the swap beofre the linux filesystem
[09:55] <bruenig> stojance, put it in the control file when you are making it
[09:55] <eyemean> ok i've got another problem, i've got 2 screens and have managed to edit xorg file so that i have a bigscreen across both screens
[09:56] <kitsune> Is there anyway to see what processes are being loaded when logining in? When I log in, it takes a VERY long time for the apps I have put on startup to come up.

[09:58] <bruenig> gamecheif, what does that do
[09:59] <gamecheif> well if you heard of xbox live
[09:59] <bruenig> !find xbox
[09:59] <sldkfj> eyemean, could you hold a second?
[09:59] <aroo> eyemean, just change the amount of desktops you can have
[09:59] <gamecheif> then theirs something else you can go to
[09:59] <ubotu> Found: fluxbox, libxbox-dev, libxbox0, xbox-cromwell, xbox-raincoat
[09:59] <aroo> eyemean, in the desktop switcher
[09:59] <gamecheif> called xbconnect
[09:59] <eyemean> sure thing sldkfl
[09:59] <gamecheif> thats a generic xbox live
[09:59] <aroo> eyemean, 4 sided means 1 desktop, 8 sided means 2 desktops in the switcher
[09:59] <joeamined> hi, i'm using ubuntu feisty on an hp pavilion dv6000 with geforce go 7400 i have the "pci failed to allocate mem resource" in the boot does the new nvidia driver fix this problem ? should i install it ?
[09:59] <inf> ugh
[10:00] <gamecheif> now when i installed did all my programs get deleted
[10:00] <serpent> #hackers
[10:00] <eyemean> so how do i sort it aroo
[10:00] <eyemean> pls
[10:00] <bruenig> gamecheif, linux is not windows, you don't install windows programs in linux. You install linux programs in linux. Some windows programs can be run through wine, but it is best to look for alternatives because it is not anywhere near 100%
[10:00] <joeamined> hi, i'm using ubuntu feisty on an hp pavilion dv6000 with geforce go 7400 i have the "pci failed to allocate mem resource" in the boot does the new nvidia driver fix this problem ? should i install it ?
[10:01] <aroo> eyemean, do you have a desktop switcher on your gnome interface
[10:01] <bruenig> !repeat | joeamined
[10:01] <ubotu> joeamined: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[10:01] <aroo> eyemean, the thing with the 4 squares that you can click to switch desktops with
[10:01] <rinky3> "error while loading shared libraries: libfuse.so.2: cannot open shared object" <-- but I have /usr/local/lib/libfuse.so.2 how do I put the libs into a libpath of some kind? I have no /etc/ld.so.conf file :(
[10:01] <viper80> salve
[10:01] <sldkfj> eyemean,  check out:  Desktop / Desktop Cube / Options / Multi Monitor Mode     ...and the number of Desktops in General Options
[10:01] <viper80> heeeeelp!!!!
[10:01] <eyemean> yes i do have desktop switch
[10:01] <aroo> eyemean, right click, properties, change desktops to 1
[10:01] <aroo> eyemean, beryl considers 1 cube to be 1 desktop
[10:02] <ubunt1> #join #ubuntu-bg
[10:02] <aroo> eyemean, or try through beryl options like sldkfj suggested
[10:02] <gamecheif> so what should i do now then
[10:03] <aroo> gamecheif, what "programs" are you talking about
[10:03] <aroo> gamecheif, be specific when you ask questions
[10:03] <silvertip257> anybody familiar with building live (CD) environments?  I've got a link I'd like to show and ask questions about.
[10:03] <gamecheif> well i have a program called xbconnet
[10:03] <eyemean> it is set at 1 aroo
[10:03] <spasticteapot> Hello!
[10:03] <aroo> eyemean, check beryl options like sldkfj suggested, scroll up to see his response
[10:03] <eyemean> i dotn have beryl installed, that doesnt work for me
[10:04] <gamecheif> http://www.xbconnect.com
[10:04] <aroo> eyemean, how do you have a cube then
[10:04] <aroo> gamecheif, I have absolutely no idea because this channel isn't a support channel for that
[10:04] <eyemean> im new to linux
[10:04] <eyemean> but i tried installing beryl and it didnt work
[10:05] <spasticteapot> With a fresh Ubuntu install, the little wifi icon in the upper-right (taskbar?) has a pull-down tab where you can select a wireless network. Mine seems to have disappeared after turning off the wfifi through the "turn off wifi" key on my Thinkpad, and I can't make it come back.
[10:05] <eyemean> im using gnome interface if that helps
[10:05] <aroo> eyemean, you said you had an 8 sided cube
[10:05] <sldkfj> eyemean,  check out:  'Horizontal Virtual Size' in General Options / Main   ... it should be 4      'Vertical Size' should be 1     and 'Number of Desktops' should be 1
[10:05] <spasticteapot> Also, does anyone know the package that has all the proprietary codecs, like Mp3?

[10:05] <aroo> gamecheif, you can't just install Windows applications on Linux
[10:05] <gamecheif> ohhhhhhhhh ok
[10:05] <magnetron> gamecheif: there is a limewire for linux
[10:06] <aroo> gamecheif, you need to read about the operating system before using it
[10:06] <eyemean> sorry wen you say general optioins where do u mean pls? sorry for being silly
[10:06] <gamecheif> well it wasnt explained clearly
[10:06] <Sh3r1ff> gamecheif: use azureus in linux ;)
[10:06] <z0man> can someone help, I'm curious about the latest kernel update
[10:06] <eyemean> pls bear with me
[10:06] <gamecheif> k
[10:06] <aroo> z0man, ask questions instead of asking to ask questions :)
[10:07] <Sh3r1ff> !ask
[10:07] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)

[10:08] <spasticteapot> I'm war-walking, and don't have much battery left.
[10:08] <z0man> Soon I updated the kernel and restarted the machine, it came to grub> prompt.  I found out how to load the "menu.lst" backup file I had 2 kernels ago and managed to load this up

[10:08] <sldkfj> eyemean, <eyemean> sorry wen you say general optioins where do u mean pls? sorry for being silly  <-------------------  that is in the 'beryl settings manager'
[10:08] <magnetron> !repeat | spasticteapot
[10:08] <ubotu> spasticteapot: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[10:08] <z0man> Also when I tried to use the new kernels, it moaned about cylinders exhausted
[10:08] <z0man> error 18 think

[10:09] <doug_> Hi does anyone have any experience using the Wubi ubuntu installer?
[10:09] <Sh3r1ff> aroo: maybe he has compiz
[10:09] <magnetron> !register | Noob
[10:09] <ubotu> Noob: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[10:09] <spasticteapot> magnetron: Sorry, I'm suffering massive lag.
[10:09] <sldkfj> eyemean, if you're not using beryl it's not a cube,    unless you loaded Compiz
[10:09] <z0man> !grub
[10:09] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[10:09] <eyemean> yeah i think thats the one i have
[10:09] <eyemean> compiz
[10:09] <sx66> how do you change the default settings for the power mag, of 11min screen off to a lower one?
[10:09] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[10:09] <tondar> hey all
[10:09] <eyemean> i was trying to think of is
[10:10] <gamecheif> ok so did ubuntu
[10:10] <eyemean> it
[10:10] <Noob> !register| Noob
[10:10] <gamecheif> delete all my windows files
[10:10] <sldkfj> eyemean, with Compiz,  I think you tweak that in compiz-gnome gui
[10:10] <IndyGunFreak> !enter | gamecheif
[10:10] <tondar> any FREE photoshop app in linux? (Not gimp)
[10:10] <aroo> gamecheif, if you told it to, yes
[10:10] <ubotu> gamecheif: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[10:10] <sldkfj> or in the gconf editor
[10:10] <IndyGunFreak> !gimpshop | tondar
[10:10] <ubotu> tondar: gimpshop is a hack that makes The Gimp look and feel more like Photoshop.  A .deb for Ubuntu is available via http://plasticbugs.com/?page_id=294
[10:10] <sldkfj> I could be wrong though
[10:10] <aroo> gamecheif, ubuntu didn't do anything unless you told it to do it
[10:10] <eyemean> how do i do that ?
[10:10] <sldkfj> I don't use compiz
[10:10] <IndyGunFreak> aroo: my ubuntu does things all the time w/o me telling it to.
[10:10] <Sh3r1ff> sldkfj: gnome-compiz-manager
[10:11] <aroo> IndyGunFreak: you should get that looked at, then
[10:11] <gamecheif> i told to create a patican
[10:11] <sldkfj> eyemean is compiz-gnome installed?
[10:11] <XtypeWriter74> hi. i am trying to open .swf files with MC directing to vlc player,,, i edited the Video line in /etc/mc/mc.ext with :: regex/\.([sS] [wW] [fF] )$    /    Include=video,,, but the file(s) will not open up in vlc, does anybody have an idea what i am missing ?
[10:11] <IndyGunFreak> aroo: :)
[10:11] <z0man> Well I think my menu.lst is corrupted and the kernel won't start as it has to be on the first 18 cylinders (old machines).   My machine is an AMD dual core processor so I have no clue about why it won't start the new kernel
[10:11] <aroo> gamecheif: partition?
[10:11] <Noob> i have a system runbning xp  and i installed kubuntu and when i boot up i can select kubunto but xp is not in the boot loader
[10:11] <gamecheif> yes
[10:11] <sldkfj> eyemean, shift this chat into #ubuntu-effects  there will be people there to help
[10:11] <Yanas> Is there any program what will let me run windows .exe's in Ub?
[10:12] <Sh3r1ff> Yanas: wine
[10:12] <aroo> gamecheif: you can always reboot to check
[10:12] <Sh3r1ff> !wine
[10:12] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[10:12] <HugLeo> Driver: "agrsm-alpha.tar.bz2"
[10:12] <Yanas> WIne, gotcha.
[10:12] <HugLeo> I use the Ubuntu. I've compiled the driver. I've loaded the modules and
[10:12] <HugLeo> created links correctly. But I do not obtain the message "modem detected".
[10:12] <HugLeo> The wvdial makes this: Port Scan: Scanning ttyLTM0 first, /dev/modem is link
[10:12] <HugLeo> you it.
[10:12] <HugLeo> When it would have to be perhaps: Port Scan: Scanning ttyAGS3 first,
[10:12] <HugLeo> The symbolic links are ok.
[10:12] <IndyGunFreak> XtypeWriter74: where did you read to edit that file.
[10:12] <HugLeo> Do you anybody could help me?
[10:12] <aroo> !paste
[10:12] <eyemean> yeah im sure its compiz
[10:12] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[10:12] <aroo> HugLeo, do not do that
[10:12] <eyemean> ok will try there thank you
[10:13] <soyporti> does anyone knows how to fix azureus problems and Block IP??
[10:13] <HugLeo> aroo: ok
[10:13] <aroo> soyporti: be specific, what problems
[10:13] <daylighter> I had a kernel upgrade yesterday, and now I am unable to access any windows partitions, I have some NTFS and some FAT32
 i dont remember, if it was here or somewhere, somebody suggested me to edit there
[10:14] <aroo> daylighter, using ntfs-3g ?
[10:14] <IndyGunFreak> XtypeWriter74: if i recallc orrectly, vlc should play an FLV file w/o editing, at least it did for me
[10:14] <IndyGunFreak> hang on
[10:14] <daylighter> I dont know if I am or not, aroo, I just know that I had them set up and now they arent
[10:14] <aroo> daylighter, did they work without tampering before?
[10:14] <IndyGunFreak> XtypeWriter74: have you tried any other video players?
[10:15] <XtypeWriter74> it does, but i cannot seem to get mc to push the .swf to vlc
[10:15] <daylighter> aroo, yep
[10:15] <IndyGunFreak> mc?..
[10:15] <IndyGunFreak> you lost me
[10:15] <XtypeWriter74> midnightcommander
[10:15] <aroo> !ntfs > daylighter
[10:15] <IndyGunFreak> oh ok.
[10:15] <miles_> Hi there
[10:15] <XtypeWriter74> :)
[10:15] <IndyGunFreak> i don't know, all i've tried to do is download some youtube videos i wanted to keep, and it worked fine
[10:16] <z0man> I DONT WANT TO REINSTALL!!! :(
[10:16] <XtypeWriter74> oh yes it does :)
[10:16] <raiden_> How to chage runlevel? I'm not see /etc/inittab :)
[10:16] <IndyGunFreak> z0man: so don't
[10:16] <z0man> sorry
[10:16] <miles_> Planning to get a new laptop for Ubuntu. Are nvidia GeForce GO 8400 supported by Linux drivers, proprietary or not?
[10:16] <aroo> raiden_: change the runlevel of processes? change the runlevel that you boot into?
[10:16] <aroo> miles_: check nvidia site
[10:16] <raiden_> aroo , boot...
[10:17] <IndyGunFreak> miles_: i'm pretty sure it is.. generally Nvidia will be supported much better than ATI
[10:17] <sldkfj> miles, I think so, might be legacy if not latest
[10:17] <miles_> I checked nvidia's site but could not see it
[10:17] <IndyGunFreak> !nvidia | miles_
[10:17] <ubotu> miles_: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:17] <IndyGunFreak> check that link
[10:17] <miles_> However
[10:17] <IndyGunFreak> it has a list
[10:18] <miles_> "Gece 8400M"  does the "M" stands for "Mobile" ?
[10:18] <miles_> "Geforce"
[10:18] <IndyGunFreak> miles_: check the link.. if its supported it will be on that list.
[10:18] <raiden_> aroo, how to change default runlevel on boot? (bad english sorry)
[10:18] <alexmax> Hi.  I'm running xubuntu, and I want my ntfs drives to be automatically mounted read/write when i start the computer instead of having to manually double click them and put in my sudo password.  How do I change fstab to do this?
[10:18] <IndyGunFreak> !ntfs | alexmax
[10:18] <ubotu> alexmax: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[10:18] <tim167> what line do i add in xorg.conf to do the equivalent of xsetkbmap ?
[10:18] <alexmax> Danke
[10:19] <alexmax> !ntfs-3g
[10:19] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[10:19] <zipper> alexmax: you definately dont want to have write permissions to your ntfs partitions.
[10:19] <IndyGunFreak> zipper: i agree.
[10:19] <IndyGunFreak> dangerous stuff.
[10:19] <tyler_d> looking for a walkthrough on installing ut2003... anyone know of somewhere or done it before?
[10:19] <miles_> Yeah, it is still the same list but it does not answer my question
[10:19] <aroo> raiden_: All the things that you used to have in the /etc/inittab is ported to upstarts /etc/event.d/.
[10:19] <nullkuhl> i have beryl runnin on xgl in feisty with ati card,,, its workin so fine with the core downgrade to version 2.0 ,,, but i have no direct rendering in this session Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display "localhost:1.0". direct rendering: No ..... PLZ HELPPPPPPPPPPP
[10:19] <zipper> alexmax: You're very likely to fry the entire partition, since NTFS writing is still (probably always will be) experimental.
[10:19] <raiden_> aroo thanks
[10:20] <IndyGunFreak> brb
[10:20] <julian> wheree/how would I securely store my iwconfig settings & wep key so it would auto connect
[10:20] <Hausberg> is there a way to avoid Ubuntu from installing grub to MBR?
[10:20] <julian> /etc/network/interfaces?
[10:20] <Hausberg> and moreover is there a way to boot from USB memory stick and get grub on it?
[10:20] <mkquist> hey all, anyone know what channel is for beryl?
[10:21] <IndyGunFreak> Hausberg: disconnect the drive during install.
[10:21] <j1tters> mhquist #ubuntu-effects i think
[10:21] <mkquist> j1tters: ty
[10:21] <julian> whats a good gnome ftp client.??
[10:21] <Hausberg> IndyGunFreak nogo it's a laptop and I want to install all the other stuff on it but I do not want a boot loader
[10:21] <Studiosus> How can I burn >4gb file on dvd?
[10:22] <aroo> Hausberg, the alternate CD might do it, but I'm not certain
[10:22] <orbin> julian: you can use nautilus.  i used gftp when i needed one
[10:22] <soyporti> aroo: the guy with the problem is in ubuntu-es and the error message is "Probando puertos 20270 ... Error de NAT"
[10:23] <Smokey> Studiosus, if you can try compressing it
[10:23] <IndyGunFreak> Hausberg: only thing i can think of.. is to go ahead and install ubuntu, and let Ubuntu write grub to the MBR, then after install, clear the mbr w/ the windows b oot cd using fixmbr and fixboot... once that is done, download and setup the supergrub disk on a floppy, and set your PC to boot the floppy first... if you want to boot ubuntu, make sure the floppy is in the drive, then grub will boot, and you can choose Ubuntu... if yo
[10:23] <IndyGunFreak> u don't want Ubuntu to boot, just don't insert the floppy, and it will go straight to windows.
[10:23] <aroo> soyporti, sounds like a firewall/router issue, I'm not srue
[10:23] <soyporti> aroo: sorry but is taking to long for me to talk with him and with you guys
[10:23] <julian> orbin, thanks, trying now
[10:23] <akromyk> how do I install cdt for eclipse in Ubuntu so that I can compile c++?
[10:23] <soyporti> how can we know?
[10:23] <soyporti> aroo: what can we do?
[10:23] <SlimeyPete> akromyk: I think it's available from the eclipse plugin manager, iirc
[10:24] <aroo> soyporti: does he use a router
[10:24] <aroo> soyporti: does he use a firewall
[10:24] <soyporti> aroo: it said that the bitorrent doesn't work like azureus
[10:24] <aroo> soyporti: may need to open ports
[10:24] <aroo> soyporti: I don't use azureus so I don't know
[10:24] <SlimeyPete> akromyk: which is available from... erm, the help menu maybe? It's one of th emenus at the top of Eclipse.
[10:24] <soyporti> he said he doesn't use firewall
[10:24] <Bitmess> My fstab for HDA3 says UUID=689907d7-4800-4a90-b475-12793e385eb9 /media/hda3 ext3 defaults 0 2     How can I make it read/write to regular user?
[10:24] <tondar> which is better banshee or amarok ?
[10:25] <IndyGunFreak> tondar: i like banshee, but its ipod support is awful, so i use amarok
[10:25] <aroo> tondar, whichever you like best
[10:25] <Smokey> tondar, matter of preference
[10:25] <tuskernini> tondar: better for what?
[10:25] <Smokey> I like banshee better too.
[10:25] <Smokey> I use floola for my ipod
[10:25] <IndyGunFreak> floola?.. what the heck is that.
[10:25] <tondar> tuskernini: any advantages one has and the other dont
[10:25] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[10:25] <tondar> ?
[10:25] <Terzo> when i try to use my wireless connection a message comes up saying "Enter password for default keyring to unlock"  i give it the password, but it immediately pops up again.  am i doing something wrong?
[10:25] <akromyk> k. thanks
[10:26] <Smokey> IndyGunFreak, google it, its a exceptionally decent ipod program
[10:26] <IndyGunFreak> tondar: only f youre planning to write to an ipod, otherwise, they are both quite similar.
[10:26] <IndyGunFreak> Smokey: ok...
[10:26] <soyporti> aroo: it said that the log files of azureus said that to and send me this "Decentralised tracking requires this."
[10:26] <soyporti> aroo: what do yopu think?
[10:26] <Smokey> tondar, amarok is prettier i suppose, but i like the simplicity and ease of banshee
[10:26] <aroo> soyporti, I don't know
[10:26] <nullkuhl> i have beryl runnin on xgl in feisty with ati card,,, its workin so fine with the core downgrade to version 2.0 ,,, but i have no direct rendering in this session Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display "localhost:1.0". direct rendering: No ..... PLZ HELPPPPPPPPPPP
[10:26] <soyporti> aroo: [1006 09:28:18]  Alert:1:If you have a router/firewall, please check that you have port 20270 UDP open.
[10:26] <IndyGunFreak> Smokey: did you have to compile it, or is it in the repos.
[10:26] <tondar> so overall banshee or amarok?
[10:26] <sx66> what is a good firewall?
[10:27] <rapter> Where can I find gnome ppp dial connection comand
[10:27] <Smokey> IndyGunFreak, no idea about the repos, but I didn't compile it
[10:27] <IndyGunFreak> tondar: it doesn't matter, just choose one
[10:27] <tondar> which support gnome better?
[10:27] <soyporti> how can it be open a port??
[10:27] <IndyGunFreak> Smokey: ok.
[10:27] <IndyGunFreak> tondar: both are fine for gnome...
[10:27] <soyporti> how can i open the 20270 port?????
[10:27] <tondar> IndyGunFreak: what do you use?
[10:27] <IndyGunFreak> i told you, amarok, because i think banshee's ipod support sucks.
[10:27] <Smokey> IndyGunFreak, http://www.floola.com
[10:27] <soyporti> how can i open the 20270 port??how can i open the 20270 port??
[10:27] <orbin> Terzo: i get that when i type the password incorrectly
[10:27] <IndyGunFreak> but i don't use amarok just to listen to music, i use audacious
[10:27] <Smokey> soyporti, shh please
[10:28] <tondar> IndyGunFreak: does it support midi?
[10:28] <Flannel> soyporti: You don't need to open it, unless you've closed it actively.
[10:28] <soyporti> Smokey: sorry
[10:28] <cidwel> hello, can someone help me with ubuntu? When I switched on my pc, i've got the message that i've to make a manual maintenance of fsck, so I tried but i've got that message http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25024/

[10:46] <sx66> Flannel, firestarter takes too much mem
[10:46] <hajhouse> Veinor: the package unrar-free maybe? (found with apt-cache search)
[10:46] <orbin> Veinor: well you don't unzpi them, you unrar them.  grab rar from multiverse
[10:46] <Flannel> raymondjtoth: Read the stuff around that.  That's not a command, that's something you need to add (the next line)
[10:47] <Veinor> unrar them, eh.
[10:47] <Veinor> same diff :-P
[10:47] <tim167> PriceChild thanks, its a Radeon 9800 Pro, is that nvidia ?

[10:52] <davide> we
[10:52] <Veinor> IndyGunFreak: Good point.
[10:52] <phixnay> tom_24: I'm sure the people in here know, you just have to be a little patient for someone to notice

[10:55] <IndyGunFreak> hmm, well you're gonna probably have to burn it a lot slower than 76x..lol, i generally burn around 2-4x, to avoid problems
[10:56] <Flannel> majorglory: You access them just like any other file, they simply have a dot (.) as the first character of their name.  You don't unhide them, although you can configure things to show hidden files.
[10:56] <IndyGunFreak> omegacenti: so what makes you think there was a problem?
[10:56] <omegacenti> IndyGunFreak: know how I can find out the actual write speed?

[10:58] <raiden_> jadder> man fuser , fuser - identify processes using files or sockets
[10:58] <phixnay> Nutubuntu: I saw it, but I don't know how to copy everything in / to a new partition, since /dev and /media are within /
[10:58] <Veinor> That won't let you run executables.
[10:59] <Nutubuntu> Oh I see - I didn't realize you'd seen it
[10:59] <sayers> orbin, what one
[10:59] <sayers> !info Deluge
[10:59] <ubotu> Package deluge does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas

[11:00] <stefg> !envy
[11:00] <ubotu> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!

[11:00] <KI4IKL> How do I fix that?
[11:00] <Flannel> majorglory: File browser will work, you just have to turn on hidden files (ctrl-H, I think, also view > show hidden files, or something like that)

[11:01] <Flannel> Tom-AT-Zulu: `sudo -i` can get you a root terminal without needing to be root.  Also, `gksu nautilus` can get you a root file browser
[11:02] <Tom-AT-Zulu> god damn
[11:02] <jadder> envy make it dowm ubuntu friends
[11:02] <raymondjtoth> any way to play quick time formate on here?
[11:02] <Tom-AT-Zulu> thats how
[11:02] <raymondjtoth> got real working
[11:02] <Tom-AT-Zulu> cheers Flannel
[11:02] <stefg> tim167: no idea, reinstall and start over with a clean system ?
[11:02] <majorglory> Flannel: thanks a lot man!
[11:02] <Nutubuntu> !ask
[11:02] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:02] <orbin> sayers: actually, i'm not sure why they advise against the version in the repos, it *is* in universe after all: deluge-torrent package
[11:02] <raymondjtoth> flannel any way to play quick time format?
[11:02] <tom_24> Hey Guys! I have been playing with ubuntu on my spare HDD (about 10GB) but want to transfer ubuntu only my master drive (more space, etc) Any tools or tips anyone has for this task?
[11:03] <sayers> !info deluge-torrent
[11:03] <nitehawk> i've just installed ubunto 7.04 , server , because i was told it was real easy but....where is my root password and my UI :)
[11:03] <tim167> stefg oh dear  aaarg! well i learned my lesson i guess ;)
[11:03] <ubotu> Package deluge-torrent does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[11:03] <orbin> sayers: i'm guessing they want you to use the latest build which you may have to build from source.  i must have been mistaken thinking they had a repos for it
[11:03] <tom_24> nitehawk: if i am right - when you login go to users and groups and set the root there
[11:03] <frank|\> raymondjtoth, mplayer, and kaffeine work for me try them
[11:03] <Tom-AT-Zulu> Also, another Q -- it takes a fairly long time for me to log in to my system (i timed 3 minutes before the loading screen came up)... Any ideas? Pentium 3 866mhz machine...
[11:03] <phixnay> nitehawk: server means there is no gui, and ubuntu doesn't have a root password to begin with, just a sudo account
[11:03] <nitehawk> i cant got users and groups, i have no UI!!!
[11:03] <XtypeWriter74> anybody know how to setup midnightcommander that would like to join me in #fluxbox-chitchat
[11:03] <ROnewbie> Anyone, please ? Network Manager won't connect to any wireless networks. Running Feisty on an MSI S271X laptop with RT61 card (ralink). Newrk Mngr "sees" all the networks allright, won't connect.
[11:04] <Flannel> raymondjtoth: All that stuff is linked from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  search for "quicktime" on that page and you'll find it
[11:04] <nitehawk> lol i need my UI :)
[11:04] <sayers> orbin I don't want to compile :(
[11:04] <nitehawk> how can i get it on there ?
[11:04] <Flannel> Tom-AT-Zulu: give yourself a static IP
[11:04] <tom_24> nitehawk: install desktop then? And configure it as a server :)
[11:04] <Tom-AT-Zulu> i have
[11:04] <Tom-AT-Zulu> got one
[11:04] <orbin> sayers: http://deluge-torrent.org/  5th message on the page
[11:04] <phixnay> nitehawk: is this acutally going to be used as a server? best way to get the gui is probably install the desktop edition
[11:05] <Tom-AT-Zulu> Is there a way to view whats going on when i login?
[11:05] <nitehawk> yeah look like i'm gonns have to do that thanks....
[11:05] <frank|\> raymondjtoth, you can associate realplayer to play QT files
[11:05] <Flannel> nitehawk: Ubuntu doesn't use the root account, so you have no root password.
[11:05] <phixnay> nitehawk: but the command line has everything you really need : )
[11:05] <nitehawk> i just need it to run vmware and my redhat has died
[11:05] <tom_24> Hey Guys! I have been playing with ubuntu on my spare HDD (about 10GB) but want to transfer ubuntu only my master drive (more space, etc) Any tools or tips anyone has for this task?
[11:05] <Nutubuntu> phixnay - I thought nitehawk could just apt-get ubuntu-desktop, am I mistaken? N00b here myself, so I could be
[11:05] <raymondjtoth> frank what do you recomend installing for quick toime
[11:05] <tim167> stefg if i can acces my xorg.conf in any way i could tell it to load the old vga driver, no ?
[11:05] <drif> which repository is needed for w32codecs?
[11:05] <Monteh> hey guys, the nvidia installer is asking for "libc developement package", how can i find that?
[11:06] <Flannel> Nutubuntu: He could
[11:06] <Pozaro> i typed in wine in the packge program what is winefish?
[11:06] <Tom-AT-Zulu> apt-get install libc*
[11:06] <phixnay> Nutubuntu: lol I'm in the same position as you! That might work, but I've never tried it, and know nothing about that myself
[11:06] <Tom-AT-Zulu> apt-get install libc-devel i believe
[11:06] <frank|\> raymondjtoth,  kaffeine, or mplayer or real can handle with associating it
[11:06] <phixnay> nitehawk: Nutubuntu: might as well give that a try
[11:06] <tim167> stefg maybe even connecting this HD to another computer ?
[11:06] <fabio_> sorry guys...is possible to start ubuntu with eth0 down?
[11:06] <phixnay> tom_24: I thought of a solution for you
[11:06] <raymondjtoth> ok
[11:07] <tom_24> phixnay: oh?
[11:07] <zipper> fabio_: sure. Just remove "auto eth0" from /etc/network/interfaces
[11:07] <raymondjtoth> frank will movie player play windows media formate
[11:07] <Sh3r1ff> !w32codecs
[11:07] <ubotu> Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[11:07] <ROnewbie> Anyone, I'LL PAY $30 by paypal to whomever can help me with my wireless; in brief, Network Manager won't connect to any wireless networks. Running Feisty on an MSI S271X laptop with RT61 card (ralink). Newrk Mngr "sees" all the networks allright, won't connect. I'm sure card is installed. Again, 30 bucks for this one.
[11:07] <Monteh> Tom-AT-Zulu: i tried it with just dev, i think its working =o
[11:07] <Nutubuntu> so nitehawk - that would be "apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" - or run aptitude from the command line (if that's part of the server install; IDK if itis)
[11:07] <phixnay> tom_24, you could install ubuntu from scratch on your hdd, then copy your directories from your old one
[11:08] <Tom-AT-Zulu> good, good
[11:08] <yyyyyyy> hi. I want to play heroes3 with wine over internet. The game is ok but I'm in a local network and accesssing internet over gateway. I think I need to make the game search for ip on the internet somehow not in the local network
[11:08] <Tom-AT-Zulu> aint used linux in a long time.... last time was redhat 9 on a pentium 133 :P
[11:08] <hind-kevin> slt sa va
[11:08] <gtfx> 'nj gbpltw
[11:08] <phixnay> tom_24: you could also create a separate partition for /home
[11:08] <Asincrono> hi
[11:08] <tom_24> phixnay: good idea- only problem is (i could be wrong) i will lose all my settings (I just got my ATI card playing ball - im sure you have heard of the horror stories?"
[11:08] <hind-kevin> do yopu french
[11:08] <fabio_> zipper: i must leave only eth0 or i must remove all the line?
[11:08] <phixnay> it comes in handy
[11:08] <raymondjtoth> frank will yer play windows media formatemovie mpla
[11:08] <hind-kevin> do you french
[11:08] <stefg> tim167: can't tell. i never used envy, don't know what it does and thus have no idea what may be have broken by it. In general all automtic scripts which don't  work will leave without any hint where the breakage occured , tis makes these problems hard to troubleshoot
[11:09] <Flannel> !fr | hind-kevin
[11:09] <ubotu> hind-kevin: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[11:09] <Tom-AT-Zulu> I have a static IP on eth1, so can i take the auto eth1 out of /etc/network/interfaces?
[11:09] <Asincrono> what's the comand to show the files a process is using?
[11:09] <Pirate_Hunter> Hi everyone, i need help. My booting takes too long since my last reformat- I keep getting on boot "GRUB loading please wait" but that sometimes take up to 3-5 min to load and other times even longer. This isn't normal and my pc shouldn't take that long, I have checked BIOS, changed some options but nothing has helped. I literally have to restart my PC  twice sometimes until Grub gets picked up. Can someone tell
[11:09] <Pirate_Hunter> me how I can solve this issue?
[11:09] <nitehawk> ok....tried the thing about apt-get. now its asking me if i'm root, but i got now root password!!!
[11:09] <phixnay> tom_24: yeah, I'd hate to go through all the configuration on this computer again as well :)
[11:09] <frank|\> raymondjtoth,  i believe so but kaffeine is better then totem player and mplayer should work to you juat havr to associate the players to the files i
[11:09] <zipper> ROnewbie: you really shouldnt have to pay for help. If someone is online who can help you, i'm sure they will.
[11:09] <nitehawk> how do i set the root pass on a clean install
[11:09] <hind-kevin> do you french
[11:09] <phixnay> tom_24: if I'm correct, though, most of it is kept in /etc
[11:09] <raymondjtoth> frank insdtalling it now
[11:09] <Asincrono> ... the files opened by a process.
[11:09] <PriceChild> !sudo | nitehawk
[11:09] <ubotu> nitehawk: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[11:09] <Tom-AT-Zulu> nitehawk, to get a root console
[11:09] <raymondjtoth> will it now to use it bedefralt
[11:09] <Flannel> nitehawk: you don't need to.  Use sudo instead
[11:09] <Tom-AT-Zulu> sudo su
[11:09] <Pozaro> or su -
[11:09] <Flannel> Tom-AT-Zulu, nitehawk, `sudo -i`
[11:09] <grigora> hi, I have certain aliases in my /etc/hosts file for 127.0.0.1, however, every now and then (usually when I switch from one network configuration to another - wired -> wireless, etc) one of my aliases disappears and I have to manually set it again, anyone knows what's causing this? thanks
[11:10] <tom_24> Phixnay: True - i guess when i copy over all the xorg stuff it should all move over with it - in *theory*
[11:10] <Tom-AT-Zulu> god damn, cheers Flannel
[11:10] <phixnay> tom_24, yeah
[11:10] <ROnewbie> zipper: I know, but this has been going for a month now ... I really hate having to use WinXP, so i'm really willing to pay for this.
[11:10] <Lapinux> can anyone tell me how i go about changing a reiserfs partition label?
[11:10] <Nutubuntu> tom_24 - "the difference between theory and practice" ... ;p
[11:10] <tom_24> phixnay: i think you have just wiped out my entire afternoon tommorow :)
[11:10] <zipper> ROnewbie: i know what you mean.... i had to give up running linux on my laptop, due to wireless issues.
[11:10] <phixnay> tom_24: I guess your safest route would be to keep checking back in here for someone who's done this kind of thing before
[11:10] <tom_24> Nutubuntu: Look where it got Micro$oft ;)
[11:10] <nitehawk> lol
[11:11] <raymondjtoth> frank i have it openn its asking me want to yuse as helper for windows media and real check box what i do
[11:11] <phixnay> tom_24: lol, just a suggestion (and probably not a very good one)
[11:11] <tom_24> Phixnay - Yeah - i will give your idea a shot any way - afterall - what have i got to loose?
[11:11] <zipper> ROnewbie: i suppose you've already searched the ubuntu wiki for clues?
[11:11] <nitehawk> ok now it says cant find package ubunto-desktop
[11:11] <KI4IKL> WOO I GOT SYNERGY TO WORK!
[11:11] <orbin> tom_24: quick forum search brought up partimage
[11:11] <Pirate_Hunter> Hi everyone, i need help.

[11:11] <zipper> KI4IKL: grats
[11:11] <tom_24> orbin: i posted on the ubuntu forums but no luck so far - do you have linkage at all?
[11:11] <Nutubuntu> nitehawk -  spelling? ubuntU - not ubuntO
[11:11] <raymondjtoth> kafeeine is asking me desdk top icon and to uswe as helper
[11:11] <grigora> anyone knows why /etc/hosts would get automatically updated?
[11:11] <orbin> tom_24: my guess is you do that, then edit grub to boot from the partition on the new hdd
[11:11] <raymondjtoth> for wm  and real what id o
[11:12] <ROnewbie> zipper: yes, 3 times over. There's a whole page dedicated to RT61, but it hasn't helped. Most of it is about how to blacklist it, install it, a.s.o. Mine is already on, I'm SURE it's just some settings thing, but It doesn't seem to work
[11:12] <nitehawk> ok i just earnt my total noob wings :)
[11:12] <orbin> tom_24: i just skimmed this one: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?s=0964812d3d02233dfc3f8986fa4f6f2a&t=430854&highlight=partimage
[11:12] <frank|\> raymondjtoth, what desktop u got?
[11:12] <zipper> ROnewbie: are you able to connect to any wireless networks? i.e. networks without any encryption?
[11:12] <nitehawk> k now installing :)
[11:12] <raymondjtoth> kaffeine
[11:13] <tim167> stefg, ok, luckily i have another ubuntu partition which i can "dd if=/dev/<old> of=/dev/<new>", but it's 120 kilometers from here tho...
[11:13] <raymondjtoth> installed asking if want desktop icon and to use as windows meda helper and real player helper
[11:13] <raymondjtoth> when first install it with check bboes what i do
[11:13] <grigora> any ideas?
[11:13] <tom_24> Anyone recommend a good partition re-sizer? (particular for NTFS) =D
[11:13] <omegacenti> I think my swap partition isn't getting mounted. I have one, and I would like it to be used. How do I go about this?
[11:13] <phixnay> tom_24: that I can help you with
[11:13] <raymondjtoth> and frank how you uninstall one youy sed no good
[11:13] <raymondjtoth> i want the better one
[11:13] <IndyGunFreak> omegacenti: i don't think it gets mounted till its in use.
[11:13] <phixnay> tom_24: use gparted, it's good
[11:13] <raymondjtoth> if can
[11:14] <Lycus> Last night my Feisty Fawn server edition suffered from our electrical outages, and now it fails to properly boot. In what manner should I use the installation CD to recover?
[11:14] <kitche> omegacenti: well swap doesn't get mounted at all really
[11:14] <cfawcett> Are there any known issues with the Feisty nvidia-glx-new package and 8800 GTS/GTX cards?
[11:14] <zipper> ROnewbie: but to be honest... there is really only so much you can do. If you've tried following the guide without luck, i dont see much choice for you. Either write a better driver yourself, live without wireless, or go back to windows =/
[11:14] <omegacenti> kitche: When would be a time it would?
[11:14] <eyemean> hi im new to linx, would it be better to have firewall turned on?
[11:14] <cesar_>  on my
[11:14] <frank|\> raymondjtoth, totem u can't its part of ubuntu
[11:14] <IndyGunFreak> kitche: i thought it mounted when there was a problem
[11:14] <cesar_> i think ubuntu broke the sound on my computer, can somebody help?
[11:14] <PriceChild> !firewall > eyemean (see pm from ubotu)
[11:14] <tom_24> phixnay - Thanks =D *downloads*
[11:14] <kitche> IndyGunFreak: it's mounted on boot but it's not really mounted
[11:14] <raymondjtoth> frank ok what i do with cvheck boxes

[11:14] <nitehawk> quick question. my rehat install had a raid device (2 x 250g drives as MDO) when ubunto ins instaleld witll it mount it or will i have to try and set it all up manually.....if i remember my borother in law did it and it wasnt easy
[11:14] <tom_24> Doh! already have it on CD =/
[11:14] <IndyGunFreak> kitche: so its mounted, but n ot really mounted..lol, clear as mud
[11:14] <IndyGunFreak> !swap
[11:14] <ubotu> swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[11:15] <ROnewbie> zipper: no, I can't connect to any of them, encrypted or not
[11:15] <madunz> hi all , having problems with kib-dock and beryl..... Beryl works beautifully but kib-dock runs very very slow .... using 3700 64 bit athlon, and ge force 6600
[11:15] <kitche> IndyGunFreak: type mount swap does not show up on it
[11:15] <frank|\> raymondjtoth, so kaffeine is running right u using ubuntu or kubuntu?
[11:15] <omegacenti> kitche: Does it ever get mounted?
[11:15] <mkquist> cesar_ - no sound at all?
[11:15] <eyemean> thank you will check it out, much appreciated
[11:15] <frank|\> raymondjtoth, or xubuntu

[11:15] <raymondjtoth> and installed kafeine
[11:15] <frank|\> ah
[11:15] <zipper> ROnewbie: i'm not familiar with your card... perhaps you could try using ndiswrapper (if you arent already)
[11:15] <ROnewbie> zipper: although NM sees which are encrypted and which are not, and asks for the passwords
[11:15] <mkquist> cesar_: have u tried opeing alsamixer and messing e/the levels there?
[11:15] <raymondjtoth> frank
[11:15] <cesar_> it worked before the most resent update
[11:15] <mkquist> cesar_: *opening that is
[11:15] <cesar_> recent
[11:15] <omegacenti> IndyGunFreak: checking it out
[11:15] <grigora> does anyone know why my /etc/hosts gets automatically updated?
[11:15] <raymondjtoth> frank now what i do
[11:16] <IndyGunFreak> omegacenti: ok, i don't think it gets mounted.. but i could be wrong
[11:16] <kitche> omegacenti: not really it gets mounted but if you type mount it won't show up in it so technially it's now mounted
[11:16] <raymondjtoth> frank im n ew to this one
[11:16] <zipper> ROnewbie: hmm, wierd
[11:16] <kitche> omegacenti: but what does top say for your swap?
[11:16] <madunz> grigora ... dhcp ?
[11:16] <Nutubuntu> nitehawk - I'm about to go down that same path. Thought this was potentially helpful: http://users.piuha.net/martti/comp/ubuntu/raid.html
[11:16] <omegacenti> kitche: one second
[11:16] <cesar_> it looks ok here
[11:16] <ROnewbie> zipper: well, I would be tempted to, were it not for the fact that it seems installed already. I also picked this particular kind of laptop because it is very open source friendly.
[11:16] <comphappy> how can i import video/sound in impress
[11:16] <tom_24>  Guys i know this is a little off topic - but does anyone know of a good "Software" KVM?
[11:16] <nitehawk> tx m8
[11:16] <ROnewbie> zipper: and it was, completely, Except for this it worked perfectly
[11:16] <orbin> Lycus: how does it fail? you ay want to ask in #ubuntu-server too
[11:16] <Pozaro> is there a website on running things you download off the net like? I have alot of programs and games I want to install how do I go bout doing it ? examples are nero and other .exe files
[11:16] <raymondjtoth> frank?
[11:16] <orbin> s/ay/may
[11:16] <omegacenti> kitche: Swap:        0k total,        0k used,        0k free,   345144k cached

[11:17] <madunz> hi all , having problems with kib-dock and beryl..... Beryl works beautifully but kib-dock runs very very slow .... using 3700 64 bit athlon, and ge force 6600
[11:17] <grigora> madunz: I guess, but then some entries there stay the same (entries that I have created), but some other ones get wiped out
[11:17] <Zabikten> for .exe you'll have to use wine
[11:17] <kitche> omegacenti: ok then you don't have a swap at all it seems
[11:17] <frank|\> raymondjtoth, ah ok i use kubuntu, did u try to associate kaffeine to play QT files
[11:17] <PriceChild> Pozaro, system > admin > synaptic
[11:17] <lynucs> could anyopne tell me how i can watch streams from www.corbina.tv? vlc seems not to be able
[11:17] <comphappy> tom_24 i would look into vertualization VMWare
[11:17] <Zabikten> those are built for win systems
[11:17] <jadder> how I know all the users who are executing the same shell as my?
[11:17] <PriceChild> Pozaro, there is a wealth of applications in there, take a search :)
[11:17] <omegacenti> kitche: But I have a swap partition...
[11:17] <zipper> ROnewbie: hmmm... sure would be a bitch not to get it working then. While ndiswrapper has a lot of bugs and glitches, it might be worth a try?
[11:17] <raymondjtoth> frank i have the first screen that come up after you install it
[11:17] <PriceChild> Pozaro, we install software in a very different way :)
[11:17] <kitche> omegacenti: is it in /etc/fstab
[11:17] <raymondjtoth> what i do
[11:17] <raymondjtoth> there
[11:17] <jadder> how I know all the users who are executing the same shell as my?
[11:17] <PriceChild> Pozaro, alternateively look at Applications > Add/Remove

[11:19] <ROnewbie> zipper: Only used it once before, on another laptop; not sure how to use it again. Plus, what if it's all about some incredibly dumb thing I didn't do .. I don't know, check a box or something, or add a line of code in DH Client or whatever ... I'm just afraid I'll screw it up even more.
[11:19] <kitche> omegacenti: after you type sudo mount -a you should
[11:19] <frank|\> raymondjtoth, yes
[11:19] <IndyGunFreak> omegacenti: lol, you'll probably never need it.
[11:19] <inf> why is it that compiz is soooo much more difficult to install than beryl?

[11:21] <zipper> ROnewbie: well... as i said, i'm not familiar with your wireless chip. But you can detect wireless networks, but no being able to connect to them just seems wierd and leads me to believe its a driver problem.
[11:21] <frank|\> raymondjtoth, never used, i got for my system that works well is realplayer, mplayer, kaffeine, XMMS, gxine and Amarok, i can associate each player to diff files under Kubuntu to play and firefox

[11:22] <cfawcett> Are there any known issues with the Feisty nvidia-glx-new package and 8800 GTS/GTX cards? My system hangs right after X starts, with a completely blank screen. Works fine with nv

[11:22] <inf> geforce 7300 gs
[11:22] <Pozaro> or game

[11:22] <inf> i went to the nvidia site for the latest drivers, 100.14.xx or somethin
[11:22] <sgrove_> err, optiplex gx260
[11:22] <sgrove_> my bad
[11:23] <inf> BUT, the install says the kernel isn't matched with the driver
[11:23] <Noob> ok i'm having real problems dual booting xp kubuntu if anyone has 5 minutes i'd greatly appreciate it
[11:23] <raymondjtoth> frank how i alled to saet it up as defraltytyinde the player i inst
[11:23] <inf> it built the kernel
[11:23] <madunz> hmmm im running 1.9.75 i have similar card
[11:23] <ROnewbie> zipper: hmm .... let me get this straight. Ndiswrapper takes the firmware that is needed from a non-open source driver provided by my laptop maker; it installs this driver. If it still doesn't work, can I unde this ?
[11:23] <madunz> ahahaha
[11:23] <zipper> Noob: just ask your question instead of asking to ask

[11:23] <xenex> how do i make oidentd work?
[11:23] <inf> but i can't get it to work with beryl
[11:24] <madunz> yeh I had to edit /etc/init.d/ to include rmod nvidia and then modprobe nvidia
[11:24] <frank|\> raymondjtoth, I'm not to sure under Ubuntu cant remember! at this time
[11:24] <tom_24> comphappy: will that offer me a "fluid" move between the 2 machines?
[11:24] <Monteh> why did i have to bother with the nvidia drivers -_-
[11:24] <{HRF}Ghost> I need help on getting access to my other hard drive
[11:24] <{HRF}Ghost> from linux
[11:24] <zipper> ROnewbie: to be honest, i havent played around with ndiswrapper too much. But basicly, i've used it to run windows drivers under linux. There should be no need to change firmware.
[11:24] <inf> madunz: what does that do?
[11:24] <kitche> omegacenti: you would put /dev/sda3 none swap 0 0 in your fstab before the 0 0  ther is some more stuff but I tend to forget what goes there since it depends on the person
[11:24] <raymondjtoth> any one how were the media player go
[11:24] <tom_24> Monteh: if you think nVidia is bad - imagine having an ATI card *sighs*
[11:24] <raymondjtoth> in unabunte
[11:24] <IndyGunFreak> Monteh: generally just because you want 3 support
[11:24] <madunz> inf for beryl you also need to do the --add bit for visuals
[11:24] <IndyGunFreak> otherwise, there's no reason, default driver is fine
[11:24] <Noob> i  can't get my machine to dual boot xp linux as grub only displays 3 options and none are xp
[11:24] <omegacenti> kitche: I see... maybe....
[11:24] <IndyGunFreak> 3d support
[11:24] <zipper> tom_24: i hear you... ATI in linux is a sure way to go mental
[11:25] <Monteh> tom_24, IndyGunFreak: they installed fine, and then there was some 3d error, and it wont boot graphically anymore
[11:25] <sgrove_> it gets to a loading screen where I can see the "busy" mouse icon, the screen is scrambled for a few seconds, then it blanks
[11:25] <imrazor> inf: in /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules put 'DISABLED_MODULES="nv"'
[11:25] <inf> madunz: im suppose to do that for the nvidia xconfig as well ya?
[11:25] <madunz> theres a bug in the drivers when u mess wid beryl
[11:25] <Tudot> I take it there's nothing to support webcam to yahoo for Ubuntu?
[11:25] <Monteh> *x error not 3d error lol
[11:25] <tom_24> zipper: Its taken me 2 years to find a distro that supports my card =( And now its a "little" shaky
[11:25] <Noob> how do i check what partitions i have setup
[11:25] <cfawcett> sgrove_ at least you get a mouse icon
[11:25] <IndyGunFreak> Monteh: lol, well that would be an issue, so how are you here?
[11:25] <ROnewbie> zipper: well, thanks for the help. I'll give it another try find someone to help around here, and if not I'll give ndiswrapper a chance.
[11:25] <cfawcett> I just get a blank screen

[11:34] <ROnewbie> ikonia: it's an S271, not 272
[11:35] <raymondjtoth> apple came up with nothing
[11:35] <ikonia> ROnewbie: you should still be fine
[11:35] <raymondjtoth> when ran there test
[11:35] <ticnailer69> pv- m4800 pixilview
[11:35] <sgtsmudg> has anyone ever had a bug where the keyboard and menus stop working randomly?  everything else keeps running
[11:35] <PriceChild> omegacenti, what happens when you try and swapon /dev/hda3 ?
[11:35] <omegacenti> PriceChild: one second
 just try restarting
[11:35] <omegacenti> PriceChild: do you mean /dev/sda3?
[11:35] <frank|\> raymondjtoth,  1 sec i try to test too
[11:36] <ticnailer69> does that mean anything to you?
[11:36] <PriceChild> omegacenti, isn't that the partition?
[11:36] <Noob> this is my setup if you can take a look http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25027/
[11:36] <omegacenti> PriceChild: the partition for swap is /dev/sda3
[11:36] <ROnewbie> ikonia: no, really, if it doesn't take too much time, what is apci and how do I disable it? I really mean it when I say I'm wiling to give anything a try; it really sucks having to keep WinXP and use it 50% of the time just because my wi-fi doesn't work
[11:36] <PriceChild> omegacenti, i mean that then yeah :)
[11:36] <omegacenti> PriceChild: # swapon /dev/sda3 operation not permitted.
[11:37] <sgtsmudg> zmigliozzi: i can't.  the shutdown button stops working too... I have to do a hardware off.   it keeps happening... sometimes i can run for hours, sometimes it happens a few minutes after startup
[11:37] <ikonia> ROnewbie: you don't need to worry about it
[11:37] <kitche> omegacenti: sudo swapon /dev/sda3
 and check your xorg.conf located in etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:37] <omegacenti> PriceChild: I did it, nothing returned.. lools like it exited correctly
[11:37] <omegacenti> PriceChild: now what?
[11:37] <omegacenti> PriceChild: okay now top is saying I have swap
[11:37] <ROnewbie> ikonia: ? it doesn't work, ... it's hard not to worry.
[11:37] <sgtsmudg> zmigliozzi:  ok., thanks.  I was just hoping someone in the room might have experienced the same thing
[11:38] <PriceChild> omegacenti, by the way.... swap doesn't appear in "mount" :P
 did you just update to the latest kernel? Try to log off and then from their shutdown "alt+s" at the login screen
[11:38] <PriceChild> just noticed :)
[11:38] <webactivex> question... I have added a windows network drive to my system.. how do I access it from the command line?
[11:38] <ikonia> ROnewbie: what doesn't work ?
[11:38] <omegacenti> PriceChild: I see.. how do I get this system to automatically have swap at bootup?
[11:38] <sgtsmudg> zmigliozzi: yeah, i just got ubuntu about a month ago.
 you running kubuntu?
[11:38] <geocritter> has anyone had a feisty update hose one of their partitions?
[11:38] <PriceChild> omegacenti, setting it up correctly in /etc/fstab
[11:38] <omegacenti> PriceChild: No idea how to do that...
[11:38] <raymondjtoth> frank will the  kaffeine play windows media files?
[11:38] <sgtsmudg> no, ubuntu fiesty 7.04
[11:38] <ROnewbie> ikonia: it doesn't connect to any wireless network. Network Manager sees them all, encrypted or not, asks for the password when needed, but doesn't connect.
[11:39] <wundaboy> i am running beryl on fiesty fawn, and i realize its not supported and beta software.
[11:39] <webactivex> I have added a shared windows folder to ubuntu using their "places" menu.. how do I access this folder from the command line?
[11:39] <wundaboy> all of the windows on my desktop have about 15 pixels of artifacts on the outside of them
[11:39] <wundaboy> how do i fix that?
[11:39] <ikonia> ROnewbie: are your ssid's set to broadcast ?
[11:39] <sgtsmudg> zmigliozzi: fiesty 7.04
[11:39] <sgtsmudg> ubuntu
[11:39] <Noob> i need to reconfigure grub to boot xp how do i do that?
[11:40] <ROnewbie> ikonia: have you installed Ubuntu on the MSI laptops before? / aaa ... I don't know. Where do I find that out /
[11:40] <ROnewbie> ?
[11:40] <ikonia> ROnewbie: I'm on an S262 now
 hmm, so you hit the shutdown button and you just see like switch user, log off, lock and hibernate?
[11:40] <phixnay> Noob: I don't remember how, but I searched google until it told me. Something about chainloader +1
[11:40] <frank|\> raymondjtoth, better to use mplayer
[11:40] <Guilty_as_Sin> lost IRC password..   what do I do?
[11:40] <cesar_> my sound is broken, how do i find out what hte latest ubuntu update did??
[11:40] <sgtsmudg> zmigliozzi: yeah
[11:40] <sgrove_> where should I go for support for my ubuntu feisty machine not booting to a login screen?
[11:40] <ikonia> Guilty_as_Sin: join #tapthru or freenode and ask
[11:40] <phixnay> Noob: actually, let me look in my own boot config file, so I can tell you what to put :)
[11:40] <cesar_> i followed the instructions in that document
[11:40] <Guilty_as_Sin> thanks
[11:40] <raymondjtoth> frank will the one you gave me work for windows media files
[11:41] <Noob> this is the infro from my menu.lst and my partition info can you see how it matches up   http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25028/
[11:41] <webactivex> I have added a shared windows folder to ubuntu using their "places" menu.. how do I access this folder from the command line?
 what should I look for in xorg?
 ya that has happend with me as well. I don't know what the deal is with that. So I just log off then and just shutodwn from the login screen
[11:41] <ikonia> webactivex: its just a folder - just "cd" into it
[11:41] <ROnewbie> ikonia: how can I find out if my SSIDs are on broadcast?
 don't worry bout the xorg.conf i thought it may have been a problem with it but its not
[11:41] <raymondjtoth> frank will it work for windows media file
[11:41] <raymondjtoth> any ways
[11:42] <ikonia> ROnewbie: got to your routers and look
[11:42] <webactivex> ikonia: can I get an idea of location of this folder?
[11:42] <phixnay> Noob: it looks like what I have
[11:42] <ikonia> webactivex: where did you tell it to mount
[11:42] <frank|\> raymondjtoth, WMV?
[11:42] <frank|\> raymondjtoth, then yes
[11:42] <DarkDaemon> hiya

[11:42] <raymondjtoth> ok
[11:42] <DarkDaemon> can someone help me in pm please
[11:42] <ikonia> webactivex: yes
[11:42] <sgtsmudg> zmigliozzi: right...  yeah i don't have a problem logging off/shutting down... its just the system menu bar and al the menus, and the keyboard will stop working... so even if I hit the hotkey for shutdown, i couldn't, cuz the keyboard stops working...
[11:43] <Noob> phixnay ok ty for that, i might need to reinstall xp then
[11:43] <ikonia> DarkDaemon: whats the problem
[11:43] <webactivex> I went to places > "connect to server"
[11:43] <sgtsmudg> zmigliozzi: oh well, i'll just wait for an update to fix someday :)  thanks for your help
[11:43] <phixnay> Noob, wait though
[11:43] <Noob> phix ok
[11:43] <lynucs> anyone knows how to watch streams on .corbina.tv?
[11:43] <phixnay> I pasted it to here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25029/
[11:43] <phixnay> try rebooting it with those values
[11:43] <frank|\> raymondjtoth, kaffeine and mplayer and KMplayer play windows media files fine WMV etc...
[11:43] <DarkDaemon> well i want to start using linux (ive never dont it before) and i wanna know how to get started? which kind i should get? anyhting i should be worried abt?
[11:43] <spenc3> anyone know if there's any x-fi driver for ubuntu?
[11:43] <DarkDaemon> etc
 no prob, wish I knew how to fix that keyboard problem though. Try googling some stuff on it or check the forums : )
[11:43] <raymondjtoth> frank will mplay play windows media files
[11:43] <Noob> ok i wil do
[11:44] <raymondjtoth> i mean quick time nor wmv
[11:44] <phixnay> Noob: unless you know that yours is (hd2,1)
[11:44] <sgtsmudg> zmigliozzi: like i said, everything else runs perfectly, and sometimes it won't happen for hours an hours, if ever.  will do re: google.  thanks again!
[11:44] <webactivex> ikonia: is it the "share" feild?
[11:44] <ikonia> DarkDaemon: get the ubuntu cd from ubuntu.com install from that and read the docs on help.ubuntu.com if you want to read "howto's"
[11:44] <cesar_> my sound doesnt workkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
[11:44] <DarkDaemon> ~ ikonia ~ is ubuntu like the "best" kind of linux?
[11:44] <ikonia> cesar_: neither odes your k key
[11:44] <spenc3> raymondjtoth: mplayer plays both quick time and wmv
[11:44] <Noob> ah yeah it's the 3rd hdd in the system
[11:44] <frank|\> raymondjtoth, i cant get even QT files to play on apple's web site weird all others i can must be a plugin problems
[11:44] <ikonia> DarkDaemon: thats just personal taste, however its an excellent option
[11:44] <cesar_> how do i find out what the latest update updated
[11:44] <orbin> DarkDaemon: you realise you're asking in #ubuntu right? :)
[11:44] <spenc3> raymondjtoth: as long as you have the codec
[11:44] <cesar_> it was working efore the update
[11:45] <DarkDaemon> ~ orbin ~ lmao, i know but i couldnt find a #linux
[11:45] <DarkDaemon> XD
 The only thing i can think of right now what I would do is to check the etc/X11/xorg.conf and use the default driver for your keyboard
[11:45] <ROnewbie> ikonia: I'm looking at it right now ... where is this kind of info ? I have a dlink router.
[11:45] <ikonia> DarkDaemon: ##linux
[11:45] <DarkDaemon> oh
[11:45] <Noob> xp is on the same hdd just a different partition as ubuntu so it must be (2,1)
[11:45] <DarkDaemon> ROFL
[11:45] <ikonia> ROnewbie: I don't know, I don't support your router
[11:45] <DarkDaemon> kk
[11:45] <DarkDaemon> XD
[11:45] <DarkDaemon> thanx
[11:45] <raymondjtoth> spnc3 i don what i need just install mplayer
[11:45] <cesar_> ?
[11:46] <ROnewbie> ikonia: for what is worth, I connect to it from WinXP on this laptop, and I also connected from another Feisty-running laptop
[11:46] <ikonia> ROnewbie: not really worth much
[11:46] <ROnewbie> ikonia: would that mean it's already broadcasting?
[11:46] <webactivex> ikonia: do you know where gnome places that folder? when you add it utilizing their "connect to server" utility?
[11:46] <degreseven> i'm having trouble mounting a samba share. This fstab entry worked fine for me in gentoo (which i just switched from), but just hangs for me in ubuntu:  //10.1.1.2/Public   /media/share   smbfs   guest,uid=1000   0 0
[11:46] <ikonia> ROnewbie: not nessaryily
[11:46] <ikonia> webactivex: normally mounts it on either the desktop or /media
[11:46] <Noob> phixnay: ty for your help i'll have a play around a bit more
[11:46] <spenc3> raymondjtoth: I think the mplayer itself doesn't run those files coz it doesn't have the decoder.
[11:46] <cesar_> come on you effers
[11:46] <crimsun> kslc: please make sure the machine is plugged into an electrical outlet, then reboot with acpi=off
[11:47] <phixnay> Noob: good luck :)
[11:47] <frank|\> raymondjtoth, look in synaptic for the codec's forgot about those sorry
[11:47] <raymondjtoth> spenc3 what doswe
[11:47] <Noob> ty :p
[11:47] <raymondjtoth> doswe
 looking for what update(s)?
[11:47] <ROnewbie> ikonia: here are the options in my router page: home/advanced/tools/status/help
[11:47] <ryanfaerman> is there a version of ubuntu that will work on a very old machine, ie, one that only has a 1.4GB hard drive
[11:48] <ikonia> ROnewbie: how can I see /home/advanced/tools/status/help on your router  - its on your network
[11:48] <spenc3> raymondjtoth: you need the w32codec package from a third party repository.
[11:48] <ryanfaerman> or, in fact, any decent version of linux that you would put a total noob user on
[11:48] <ikonia> ROnewbie: and as I said I don't support your router
[11:48] <cesar_> ubuntu always has this automatic update thing, and some of them restart your computer. the last one screwed up my sound i think
[11:48] <raymondjtoth> spence with one i need
[11:48] <cesar_> it also screwed up the naming for the hard drives so that sda1 became hda1
[11:48] <cesar_> etc
[11:49] <cesar_> i just reinstalled sound base, alsa, etc and sound still doesnt work
[11:49] <Pozaro> i need a little help with wine its installed but how do i use it
[11:49] <webactivex> ikonia: well it is not in "media" and desktop is empty..
 the ones when  you have to restart are when the kernel is updated.
[11:49] <ikonia> webactivex: type mount and look
[11:49] <webactivex> I am trying to set up a cvs over a windows share
[11:49] <ROnewbie> ikonia: well, could you at least tell me for what kind of a setting am I looking for? Is it a checkbox, what ?
[11:49] <ikonia> ROnewbie: "broadcast SSID"
[11:49] <cesar_> how would that have messed my sound up?
[11:49] <ikonia> ROnewbie: and I don't know what type of setting, I don't support your router
[11:50] <raymondjtoth> spenc3 what one i need?
[11:50] <raymondjtoth> will install it
[11:51] <cesar_> ok i went to sound preferences, and i hear a beep if i change the sound playback to adc capture/standard pcm playback
[11:51] <cesar_> but i dont hear it under alsa
 not a clue
[11:51] <Atman> i have bcm43xx blacklisted in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, bcm43xx isn't listed in lsmod nor is there a corresponding entry in iwconfig. does anyone know why when i type ndiswrapper -l, it says device present alternate driver: bcm43xx????!??!?!?!!?
[11:51] <spenc3> raymondjtothcool.. the name of the package is w32codec
[11:51] <spenc3> raymondjtoth: cool.. the name of the package is w32codec
[11:51] <cesar_> so my speakers are working
[11:51] <cesar_> its just alsa
[11:52] <cesar_> hlep
[11:52] <webactivex> ikonia: will it have some sort of samba label? because I am not seeing anything in that regards
 try using the different sound driver
[11:52] <ikonia> webactivex: put your output of mount in a pastebin
[11:52] <eyemean> hi is it possible to play avi film sin mplayer in gnome
[11:52] <raymondjtoth> spenc3 i dont see it what onbne that in
[11:52] <spenc3> any x-fi driver for ubuntu right now?? i don't care.. alpha will be fine with me.
[11:52] <raymondjtoth> just searched it and didnt finde it
[11:53] <spenc3> raymondjtoth: try the multiverse repo too.
[11:53] <frank|\> raymondjtoth, under synaptic type codec and install these files avifile-player, aviwin32plugin
[11:53] <frank|\> u need to install mplayer Ray
[11:53] <Atman> i have bcm43xx blacklisted in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, bcm43xx isn't listed in lsmod nor is there a corresponding entry in iwconfig, rmmod bcm43xx returns no module found. does anyone know why when i type ndiswrapper -l, it says device present alternate driver: bcm43xx????!??!?!?!!?

[11:54] <ROnewbie> ikonia: Ok, I don't see any "broadcast SSID" around here, but this is what I have in the Home/Wireless section of my router: wireless = enabled / network id (SSID) = default / channel = 5 / security = wep / authentication type = both (open system AND shared key) / wep encryption = 64 bit, HEX.
[11:54] <ikonia> webactivex: doesn't look like its mounted
[11:55] <majorglory> My sound sounds really grainy. How do I fix it?
[11:55] <spenc3> raymondjtoth:  try this link: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_Multimedia_Codecs
[11:55] <ikonia> ROnewbie: I don't support your router - try setting your wirless card to have the SSID name in it
[11:55] <IndyGunFreak> lmao
[11:55] <webactivex> ikonia: I just added a folder on the remote drive
[11:56] <ikonia> IndyGunFreak: the ammount of times I've said "I don't support your router" youd think I do
[11:56] <ikonia> webactivex: where did you add it ?
[11:56] <IndyGunFreak> ikonia: i know, thats why i'm laughing
[11:56] <ikonia> IndyGunFreak: ahhhh
[11:56] <webactivex> nautilus
[11:56] <ikonia> webactivex: and what directory are you in
[11:57] <ROnewbie> ikonia:  ok, I think I got the part of you not supporting my router. I don't know how to set my wireless card to have my SSID name in it, if I did I most likely wouldn't be here. I've only switched to Linux for about a month now, and while I'm far from being knowledgeable, I'm still a little above literate. And that's about it.
[11:57] <webactivex> I dunno.. thats part of the problem.. nautilus.. just puts an icon on the left hand side.. and  you click on it.. and it opens your network drive
[11:57] <bobbob1016> Is swiftweasel enough of a speed upgrade from swiftfox, to switch?  I'm running 32bit on a 32bit Pentium 4
[11:57] <ikonia> ROnewbie: look on your router for the SSID name - then open the network configure application from system ---> Administration and enter your SSID name in there
[11:57] <ikonia> webactivex: an icon on the left ??
[11:58] <ikonia> what does it say in the url bar on nautalius
[11:58] <webactivex> yes.. an icon showing that its a network connection with my associated ip address..
[11:58] <Monteh> anyone here know their stuff about xorg.conf, i think i need a chunk of help
[11:58] <webactivex> I really just want a folder to access but its gotta be all dumb like this
[11:58] <PanzerMKZ> yes
[11:58] <ikonia> webactivex: ok - so its not mounted it its accessing it over the lan
[11:59] <ikonia> webactivex: its not being dumb

[11:59] <Monteh> would anyone be willing to asisst me.. id need a bit of a chat with someone.
[11:59] <crimsun> majorglory: what do you need?
[12:00] <ikonia> Monteh: just ask the question
[12:00] <IndyGunFreak> Monteh: did you backup your xorg.conf prior to doing all that messing around?
[12:00] <Monteh> yeah
[12:00] <majorglory> crimsun: my sound sounds really grainy. how do i fix it?
[12:00] <raymondjtoth> what i do now spenc3
[12:00] <IndyGunFreak> well thenall you need to do, is restore the backup
[12:00] <raymondjtoth> since i get no installer
[12:00] <ROnewbie> ikonia: I now have "enable roaming mode" checked. I unchecked it and entered the info, my network name and network password
[12:00] <Monteh> i tried that. i get the same set of errors
[12:00] <crimsun> majorglory: "grainy" is rather vague.  Pastebin your amixer output.
[12:00] <spenc3> raymondjtoth: have you installed the package?
[12:00] <Monteh> screens found but none have usable conf
[12:01] <ikonia> ROnewbie: does your network/SSID match the one on the router
