[12:01] <NigelS> Dacvak: sounds like the root is possibly wrong, when you get the grub menu press esc, then opt to edit the file from there - what drive is windows on and what drive linux, what drive is the root for each according to grub?
[12:01] <carlosqueso> SpeakerMania: sorry, but work calls, your problem is probably solvable here, so if you have problems, jsut ask and one of the others will get it....good luck
[12:01] <morten_> I've never seen automatix2 fail.
[12:01] <SpeakerMania> carlosqueso: volume is corrupt. run chkdsk. is there anything i can do through ubuntu?
[12:01] <Dacvak> NigelS: Linux is on hd3, Windows should be on hd1
[12:01] <Pirate_Hunter> doctormo how can i find if moblock is installed and if it is i want to uninstall it
[12:01] <idefixx> Dacvak: well in that case get a windows cd and use the recovery console... i cant help you without any of the essential tools, sry.
[12:01] <PriceChild> morten_, please don't suggest it in this channel though ;)
[12:01] <SpeakerMania> carlosqueso: alright, thanks
[12:02] <Jordan_U> Dave123, Ubuntu comes with burning software, and in what way is it not letting you install software?
[12:02] <drizztzrevenge> so i changed root from the users and groups thing to home/root but i uninstalled synaptic because it was getting on my nerves and being buggy... and was going to reinstall it, but now it says it cant create something using /home/root, so basically ubuntu thinks root is under home/root, but its actually still, of course, under /root. how can i make ubuntu realize this?
[12:02] <b25r624a> I am running Ubuntu 6.06 on a dual boot with windows xp.   I have a dlink g510 wireless ethernet adapter installed and am unable to get connected.  Please help!
[12:02] <morten_> Why is that?

[12:03] <Dacvak> Failed to check for installed and available applications
[12:03] <Dacvak> This is a major failure of your software management system. Please check for broken packages with synaptic, check the file permissions and correctness of the file '/etc/apt/sources.list' and reload the software information with: 'sudo apt-get update' and 'sudo apt-get install -f'.
[12:03] <SpeakerMania> sudo ntfsfix tells me to run chsdsk. is there anything i can do through ubuntu?

[12:03] <morten_> SpeakerMania: Don't you have a Windows boot disk?
[12:03] <Jordan_U> Dacvak, What happens when you run "sudo apt-get install -f" ?
[12:04] <xelnaga666> @SpeakerMania Your best firing it up again temporaliy to fix it, xp will do it

[12:05] <morten_> You have to use a Windows boot disk to solve your problem.
[12:05] <SpeakerMania> xelnaga666: what do you mean?
[12:05] <drizztzrevenge> oh i had private messaged you jrib
[12:05] <xelnaga666> @SpeakerMania tough=touch lol typo
[12:05] <jrib> drizztzrevenge: respond in the channel please
[12:05] <Pirate_Hunter> SpeakerMania: Dacvak was/is having the same problem, try super grub haven't tested it myself but looks promissing it is supposed to fix lost/corrupted Grub/MBR you can find it at http://forjamari.linex.org/projects/supergrub/ ive got it on floppy just incase
[12:05] <safwan> I have tried to use Synaptic to install wine but I get the following error E: clvm: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 3
[12:05] <safwan> E: redhat-cluster-suite: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured

[12:05] <drizztzrevenge> sorry i meant that i had changed the home directory of the user root from the user and groups thing under adinistration not knowing anything about linux, i now see that that is impossible or soemthing like that
[12:05] <SpeakerMania> xelnaga666: I have ntfs-3g and ntfsprogs. I can access the drive and read/write to it. Why the crap can't i scan for viruses?

[12:06] <digip1mp> can anyone help me with my psybnc glibc ubuntu issue?: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=471811
[12:06] <Dacvak> I guess I'll try supergrub...
[12:06] <Dacvak> Brb...
[12:06] <idefixx> Dacvak: bwt you should be able to burn isos with ubuntu out of the box by right clicking on them in nautilus.
[12:06] <xelnaga666> @SpeakerMania Basically, Linux doesnt work 100% with ntfs, and so it doesnt feel safe trying to repair it, so the recommened thing is to run windows again and let it fix it instead. In windows open cmd, then do a chkdisk
[12:06] <Pirate_Hunter> how can i find if moblock is installed and if it is i want to uninstall it
[12:06] <Jordan_U> Dacvak, To burn a CD with the default app that comes with ubuntu right click the .iso file and choose burn
[12:06] <SpeakerMania> Windows doesn't boot
[12:06] <huzz> I've opened 113 on the router, allowed the port via firestarter still its being blocked .... could something else be blocking the port?
[12:06] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: is moblock an ubuntu app?
[12:06] <NigelS> Dacvak: what does your /boot/grub/menu.lst have listed as root for linux and windows?
[12:06] <xelnaga666> @SpeakerMania The reason its corrupt, is becuase it was uncleanly unmounted
[12:07] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib nope not as such you have to download it
[12:07] <b25r624a> I must have asked a question that nobody here knows the answer to.
[12:07] <AposteRiori> hi
[12:07] <safwan> jriib where to
[12:07] <Ghost_Auk> safwan .. am having that same problem on my dual core box:  redhat-cluster-suite  seems to be "broken"  at the depository (?)
[12:07] <safwan> how to view the private message
[12:07] <b25r624a> I'll try once more.
[12:07] <b25r624a> I am running Ubuntu 6.06 on a dual boot with windows xp.   I have a dlink g510 wireless ethernet adapter installed and am unable to get connected.  Please help!
[12:07] <idefixx> jrib: not afaik. moblock is a third party rep.. at least for me :)
[12:07] <jrib> safwan: what client are you using?
[12:07] <xelnaga666> @SpeakerMania This is as far as i can help im afriad, but I can remember someone on Linux Action Show talking about it
[12:07] <NigelS> SpeakerMania: what do you want to with your ntfs partition? there are quite a few tools in the ntfsprogs package
[12:07] <EMiiiH> hello kelvin how are you?
[12:07] <NigelS> SpeakerMania: and you certainly can scan for viruses too
[12:07] <Alvenhar> Hi, I'm new to Linux and Ubuntu. I've installed a 6.10 Ubuntu next to my evil WindowsXP alright, but after booting it up, it won't let me in, i.e. I type username and password as during the installation process and it comes up saying "wrong"... What can I do? I've even re-installed just to make sure I typed both correct...
[12:07] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: so wouldn't you know if you installed?  I'm not sure I understand what you want to do...
[12:07] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib the problem i converted it with alien from rpm-deb and now I think thats what is blocking archive.ubuntu.com and I want tot uninstal it to test it out. however synaptic dont work for me
[12:07] <SpeakerMania> xelnaga666: Look at this: http://www.lissaexplains.com/forum/showthread.php?t=64808 it is me see fourth post and the picture
[12:07] <slarty> SpeakerMania: do you have a copy of UBCD or Hirens, a virus check can be run from either of these
[12:07] <Dacvak> linux is hd3,hd0 or something, and Windows is hd1, hd0
[12:08] <safwan> ghost do you suggest that i get rid of redhar-cluster-suite
[12:08] <SpeakerMania> slarty: what are those?
[12:08] <xelnaga666> @SpeakerMania kk
[12:08] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: if you used alien, it would show up in APT.  Use synaptic or any other APT frontend
[12:08] <Tiradin> crdlb: are you still in #ubuntu-effects?
[12:08] <drizztzrevenge> so i changed root from the users and groups GUI provided with ubunto to home/root but i uninstalled synaptic because it was getting on my nerves and being buggy... and was going to reinstall it, but now it says it cant create something using /home/root, so basically ubuntu thinks root is under home/root, but its actually still, of course, under /root. how can i make ubuntu realize this?
[12:08] <slarty> SpeakerMania: Boot CDs with lots of tools for working on HDs  go here http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/
[12:08] <NigelS> Dacvak: what is it exactly? i.e paste the lines from that file
[12:08] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib: synaptic is hanging when uninstalling moblock it dont work so i have to do the old manual hard way
[12:08] <jrib> drizztzrevenge: join me in #ubuntu-classroom
[12:09] <SpeakerMania> slarty: thanks
[12:09] <slarty> SpeakerMania: np
[12:09] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: pastebin the errors you get trying to use apt-get
[12:09] <safwan> when i first installed ubuntu three days ago, I installed all packages do you think this might cause the error
[12:09] <safwan> wine
[12:10] <kailden> is there a program/script/preference under linux to tell it only to charge my laptop battery to 40% (unless I change the setting?)
[12:10] <safwan> how to check for depencies
[12:10] <Dacvak> NigelS: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25322/
[12:10] <xelnaga666> @SpeakerMania ahh, from that pic it seems you cant boot into windows, if so, It means somewhere along the line the drive has corrupt, not the data. A virus search may be doable but i doubt it. I reckon the best thing to do is wipe it clean. If however you have data to recover on it, i suggest popping in a live cd trying to mount that drive. Knoppix comes with ntfs support i think
[12:10] <LinAsH> kailden, why???
[12:11] <xelnaga666> @SpeakerMania I suggest knoppix becuase its kde based and wickedly easy to use
[12:11] <safwan> I want to check for system depencies do you have any suggestion what tools shall I use
[12:11] <AKiLL>  does anyone know how can I successfully install locales 2.3.9+ on my ubuntuppc linux ? I'm having a boring prob with pkgs update...
[12:11] <bolloxmcgee> hi i need help setting up beryl, anyone wanna gimme a hand?
[12:11] <kailden> LinAsH:  because I use A/C power a lot of the time, and 40% is the optimal storage for a battery, but I like having the battery in in case of a thunderstorm
[12:11] <SpeakerMania> xelnaga666:I am downloading the Ultimate Boot CD right now, so let me try that first before I wipe anything. :)
[12:11] <AKiLL> actually, when I try to update I get the following msg:
[12:11] <NigelS> Dacvak: and you boot into Vista or into WMC?
[12:11] <AKiLL> Can't exec "locale": No such file or directory at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/Encoding.pm line 16.  Use of uninitialized value in scalar chomp at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/Encoding.pm line 17.
[12:11] <use> exit
[12:11] <rollerskatejamms> how do I resume a process I did Ctrl-Z in
[12:12] <xelnaga666> @SpeakerMania yeah, only wipe as a last try
[12:12] <Dacvak> NigelS: I don't even have Vista on here. I don't know why that's still there. Windows Media center
[12:12] <Jordan_U> rollerskatejamms, "fg"
[12:12] <kailden> LinAsH: I've seen a windows program at my job that does the same, I guess to extend battery life long-term
[12:12] <rollerskatejamms> ty Jordan_U
[12:12] <Dacvak> NigelS: I'm going to try out SuperGrub... Take a look at that, and I'm sure I'll be back in like 5 minutes with failed results.
[12:12] <ArtesMagae> Is there any way to remove the dependencies a package has when you remove the package? Other then knowing what all the dependencies are and removing them as well?

[12:13] <Jordan_U> ArtesMagae, sudo apt-get reomve <package> --auto-remove

[12:14] <safwan> xtu2 is that from the command line
[12:14] <vakosel> apt-get command for mySQL?

[12:14] <idefixx> jrib: the moblock package is called moblock-nfq or moblock-ipq

[12:15] <jrib> !contribute > slmnhq (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:15] <Jordan_U> sidney22, Does it show up at all in System - Administration - Networking?
[12:15] <^rike^> jrib: i patched and rebuilt the package but it kept the same version of the package the system is trying to upgrade; could this be a problem to pinning?
[12:15] <bolloxmcgee> thanks jrib
[12:15] <safwan> never mind body. it is really nice of you
[12:16] <sidney22> I can't download ndiswrapper because I can't get connected to the internet via my wireless card.
[12:16] <Pirate_Hunter> !paste bin
[12:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about paste bin - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:16] <safwan> atleast xtu2 now I know

[12:16] <safwan> thanks to you
[12:16] <xtu2> safwan; That is the idea buddy ;-)
[12:16] <safwan> thanks xtu2
[12:16] <xelnaga666> @SpeakerMania Another suggestion if the other methods dont work, If you cannot mount the partition under a live linux cd, try building a live Windows cd with BartPE, you be able to run chkdisk off that too. heres the URL http://www.nu2.nu/pebuilder/. You probably wont need to go that far, but thats the only other solution im aware of
[12:16] <mc44> sidney22: its on the CD
[12:17] <safwan> I really need to know how to check my system for dependancies
[12:17] <Ze_M> i did run the adept_installer but i cant find xchat ot other known programs to install, any help?
[12:17] <sidney22> I installed the entire operating system but I can't find the ndiswrapper.
[12:17] <Jordan_U> safwan, Can you be more specific? What application do you need to check the dependencies of and why?
[12:17] <bolloxmcgee> yo jrib the command isnt bein found....
[12:18] <bolloxmcgee> i sudoed as root to
[12:18] <mc44> sidney22: its on the CD. you have the CD?
[12:18] <safwan> jordan_L I am trying to install wine
[12:18] <Jowo> anyone: how do I configure whats happening when I close the lid on my laptop (in gnome)
[12:18] <jrib> bolloxmcgee: /join #ubuntu-effects     right here where you are typing to me
[12:18] <bolloxmcgee> ohh right srry] 
[12:18] <SpeakerMania> xelnaga666: thanks
[12:18] <bolloxmcgee> i thought you meant in terminal
[12:18] <sidney22> mc44:Yes I have the cd. I don't know how to install it from the cd.
[12:18] <Jordan_U> safwan, Just use Synaptic or apt-get, they will deal with dependencies for you
[12:18] <jrib> ^rike^: you edited /etc/apt/preferences to pin your package version?
[12:19] <SpeakerMania> xelnaga666: the only problem is i don't have an installation CD.
[12:19] <mc44> sidney22: put the CD in, open it up and go to /pool/main/n/ndiswrapper and double click on the file
[12:19] <^rike^> jrib: yes, but update-manager keeps trying to update it
[12:19] <sidney22> thank you..I'll go try it now.  Can we talk privately on another messenger?
[12:19] <safwan> Jordan_L I have used the Synaptic and the following error is generated E: clvm: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 3

[12:20] <sidney22> mc44: do you have yahoo messenger?
[12:21] <mc44> sidney22: no
[12:21] <jrib> ^rike^: ah, well when you patch your package, up the version (I append -1jrib1 or something similar...)
[12:21] <L-_-_-R> Hi.
[12:21] <sidney22> how long will you be here?
[12:21] <gwhite> i just burned the latest gparted livecd and as soon as i load the cd and it displays my current partitions it crashes :/
[12:21] <jlu> when i connect to a windows-server using Places -> Connect, how do i access the files from programs that can only load files from the tree?
[12:21] <^rike^> jrib: can I just rename the file?
[12:21] <L-_-_-R> Is this a clever nickname?
[12:21] <jrib> ^rike^: rename what file?
[12:21] <mc44> sidney22: someone else will be able to help you if I'm not :)
[12:22] <L-_-_-R> Left       Right
[12:22] <L-_-_-R> :)
[12:22] <mc44> L-_-_-R: well done :)
[12:22] <neosimago> what is the thought behind partitionining linux for raid? how does the kernel know how to put together partitions that are raid 0 or 1 together so they are in the end logical partitions? does UUID have some part to play with it, because wouldn't disks be renumbered with the addition and removal of extra drives?
[12:22] <safwan> Jordan_L are you there
[12:22] <L-_-_-R> Thanks. :D
[12:22] <doctormo> I'm so confuised, why is it so hard to send files to a Mac OS X machine from ubuntu?
[12:22] <Jordan_U> safwan, Yes
[12:22] <sidney22> thank you.
[12:22] <xelnaga666> @SpeakerMania Do you happen to have an i386 folder in the root of any drives on that machine? If it was a machine sold to you, the company/individual may have put the windows installer files on there, you "might" be able to point to them with BartPE
[12:22] <^rike^> jrib: the .deb that resulted from the patch
[12:22] <Alvenhar> Hi, I'm new to Linux and Ubuntu. I've installed a 6.10 Ubuntu next to my evil WindowsXP alright, but after booting it up, it won't let me in, i.e. I type username and password as during the installation process and it comes up saying "wrong"... What can I do? I've even re-installed just to make sure I typed both correct...
[12:22] <L-_-_-R> doctormo: Because you need OpenSSH server.
[12:23] <Jordan_U> safwan, Do you want redhat-cluster-suite installed?
[12:23] <SpeakerMania> xelnaga666: I built my computer. :)
[12:23] <jrib> ^rike^: oh, no you need to update the changelog, run 'dch -i' in package-version directory
[12:23] <xris_> Alvenhar: tat's most weird
[12:23] <L-_-_-R> Alvenhar: Log in as root.
[12:23] <safwan> jordan_U I have used Synaptic the error i get is relate to redhat-cluster-suite which it has a depencies problem
[12:23] <Alvenhar> xris_ , I think so
[12:24] <xelnaga666> @SpeakerMania Ah, well then you'll either have to find someone with discs or *cough* it :P
[12:24] <^rike^> jrib: ah, ok, i'll try that
[12:24] <Alvenhar> L_-_R I tried that, at least by simply typing "rrot" in the user name fioeld and then my password
[12:24] <jrib> safwan: it's ok to tell Jordan_U your error, but use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you go there, paste your error, and get a url that you can then give Jordan_U or anyone else that wants to help you)
[12:24] <safwan> Jordan_U I think I have the redhad but not configured
[12:24] <Jordan_U> safwan, Do you want redhat-cluster-suite at all though, I am assuming that you don't and therefore it should not be trying to find dependencies for it in the first place
[12:24] <Pirate_Hunter> rofl the paste bin thinks im spamming wtf, i cant even post my errors ubuntu is getting annoying
[12:24] <SpeakerMania> xelnaga666: Don't you just <3 peer-to-peer sharing? *sough* I can get eveyrhting there *cough*
[12:24] <L-_-_-R> Alvenhar: No, boot up Linux in single user mode.
[12:24] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: use pastebin.ca
[12:25] <gh0stid> erm sorry to ask but how may i know wich /dev/ is my dvd recorder ? if it is known as /media/cdrom0 ?
[12:25] <xelnaga666> @SpeakerMania No comment :P hehe
[12:25] <SpeakerMania> xelnaga666: lol
[12:25] <AznDinner> why is it when i put in a 32 bit version of Ubuntu my computer restarts?
[12:25] <Alvenhar> L_-_R , what does that mean?
[12:25] <safwan> Jordan_U I am new to linux , what can I use the redhad suite for?
[12:25] <L-_-_-R> Alvenhar: RTFM then.
[12:25] <Dacvak> NigelS: SuperGrub didn't work. I tried EVERYTHING.
[12:25] <Pirate_Hunter> !pastebin.ca
[12:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pastebin.ca - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:25] <SpeakerMania> xelnaga666: okay I just burned the UBCD so I'll be back
[12:25] <safwan> do I have to install before I install wine
[12:25] <kitsune> anybody know where I can get an encryption plugin for pidgin?
[12:25] <xelnaga666> @SpeakerMania kk
[12:26] <mc44> L-_-_-R: don't tell people to do that, please
[12:26] <Jordan_U> safwan, For creating clusters, something that a Desktop user almost certainly would not need.
[12:26] <AznDinner> Why is it when i put in a 32 bitc version of Ubuntu on my laptop my laptop restarts?
[12:26] <mint> anyone knows what command should i type when i`m on command line prompt to edit a file??? (in gnome i use gedit....)????
[12:26] <gh0stid> erm sorry to ask but how may i know wich /dev/ is my dvd recorder ? if it is known as /media/cdrom0 ? anyone please ?
[12:26] <kailden> ok, well gotta go afk, so I'm guessing the answer is rare.
[12:26] <L-_-_-R> mc44: If he can't figure out booting single user, I am not going to bother helping.
[12:26] <mc44> L-_-_-R: you can not bother helping without insulting people
[12:26] <Alvenhar> L_-_R , I mean, is that a setting from the boot manager menu or do have to change some file, or do I choos something from the meager options menu on the login screen?
[12:26] <Jordan_U> safwan, Try running "sudo apt-get remove redhat-cluster-suite --auto-remove
[12:26] <L-_-_-R> mc44: I will help, I won't do the job of Google.
[12:26] <L-_-_-R> mc44: So fuck off.

[12:27] <jrib> L-_-_-R: watch the language.  If you don't want to help someone, just don't comment
[12:27] <gh0stid> mint : u can use pico
[12:27] <L-_-_-R> He can find out how to do what I said on his own.
[12:27] <gh0stid> or nano
[12:27] <mint> Thx!!!
[12:27] <mint> like
[12:27] <safwan> Jordan when i first installed linux I download all the programs available do you think that cause the problem , I will try what you gave right away
[12:27] <mint> sudo pico xxxxxxxxx ??
[12:27] <gh0stid> yeh
[12:27] <gh0stid> or use vim
[12:27] <mint> thx!!!
[12:27] <L-_-_-R> I'm leaving. I can't even fucking use pejoratives here/
[12:27] <mint> ok!
[12:27] <NigelS> Dacvak: ok, I guess you're IRCing from the machine now - so write this down and try it: reboot and at the grub menu press esc, then at the command prompt type rootnoverify (hd1,0), <enter>, chainloader +1, <enter>, boot, <enter>
[12:27] <gh0stid> but it is hard if u dont know how its working
[12:28] <AznDinner> Why is it when I try load the 32 bit version of Ubuntu my computer restarts?

[12:28] <gh0stid> AznDinner its related to ur hardrive connection
[12:28] <AznDinner> explain?
[12:28] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: idefixx said the package was moblock-nfq or moblock-ipq
[12:28] <gh0stid> i guess ur using sata and ide ?
[12:28] <Jordan_U> safwan, You installed all the programs available? There are hundreds of thousands of applications available in the repositories, that would certainly cause problems if you tried to install all of them
[12:29] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib: dont know but ill try both
[12:29] <AznDinner> um i dont know
[12:29] <AznDinner> ghsot is there any way to resolve it?
[12:29] <gh0stid> well its something realted to ur : master ide, secondary ide third ide. etc..
[12:29] <p1ls> yoo, i have a question, anyone lives in illinois here?
[12:30] <safwan> jordan no , from add and remove
[12:30] <AznDinner> but how do i install it?
[12:30] <Alvenhar> nice... now can anyone explain to me how to start in "single user mode". Because I'm not aware of ever telling ubuntu that I'm several users...
[12:30] <Dacvak> NigelS: I'll try that
[12:30] <gh0stid> alvenhar init 6
[12:30] <gh0stid> i think.
[12:30] <cables> Is there any way to get Totem to buffer more? I'm trying to watch Apple HD trailers, but Totem keeps pausing to download more.
[12:30] <gh0stid> im not sure
[12:30] <jrib> Alvenhar: when you reboot, you will have a choice for "recovery mode" from the grub menu
[12:30] <NigelS> Alvenhar: you don't want to do that
[12:30] <idefixx> Jordan_U: its not even possible to install everything... a lot of stuff conflicts with eachother
[12:30] <jrib> Alvenhar: but yeah... what is the actual issue?
[12:30] <Jordan_U> safwan, OK, that is not quite as bad but still not possible.
[12:31] <magnetron> I haven't done the kernel upgrade yet. I heard it will bork on my nonfree nvidia module. what is the command to repair it?
[12:31] <gh0stid> erm sorry to ask but how may i know wich /dev/ is my dvd recorder ? if it is known as /media/cdrom0 ? anyone please ? i just cant remember :/ .
[12:31] <cables> magnetron: it usually doesn't mess up the nvidia drivers for me.
[12:31] <safwan> jordan_u I have tried the code you gave but nothing is happening apart from the termnal got stock . is that an indication that I don't have the red had
[12:31] <Jordan_U> idefixx, I know :) I think that is the problem, I am just not quite sure what to do about it short of having him re-install :)
[12:31] <magnetron> !worksforme | cables
[12:31] <ubotu> cables: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[12:31] <Alvenhar> jrib, I've installed a 6.10 Ubuntu next to my evil WindowsXP alright, but after booting it up, it won't let me in, i.e. I type username and password as during the installation process and it comes up saying "wrong"... What can I do? I've even re-installed just to make sure I typed both correct...
[12:31] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib: it seems none will be picked up so i havent got it insatlled than? hoe thats true because than I ahev no clue what is stopping my packets from connecting to archive.ubuntu.com
[12:31] <jrib> gh0stid: if you put a dvd in your drive, and type 'mount' you should be able to discern which one it is
[12:31] <gh0stid> jrib thx
[12:32] <gh0stid> right on ;) sdc1 ;)
[12:32] <gh0stid> thx
[12:32] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: try: apt-cache search moblock
[12:32] <cables> magnetron: don't give me that factoid... I realize it sometimes breaks systems. When it does, we usually are able to fix them in this channel.
[12:32] <Alvenhar> jrib, an dsomeone told me to start in single user mode, probably thus trying to avoid having to type in user name and pswd
[12:32] <cables> magnetron: !worksforme is for people who are doing risky things with their system, not people who are installing Ubuntu recommended updates

[12:32] <safwan> E: redhat-cluster-suite: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[12:32] <safwan> E: system-config-cluster: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[12:32] <jrib> Alvenhar: well you can use recovery mode to reset the password.  Do you know the username for sure?
[12:32] <idefixx> Jordan_U: hmm just read it :)... i dont think there is an easy way out of this. reinstall seems good. (never thought i'd say that about debian/ubuntu xD)
[12:33] <gh0stid> jrib ermmm no sorry .. wasnt right:/ i dont see my /media/cdrom0 nowhere :/
[12:33] <sidney22> I am running Ubuntu 6.06 on a dual boot with windows xp.   I have a dlink g510 wireless ethernet adapter installed and am unable to get connected.  I tried installing ndiswrapper, but the wireless adapter is still not listed in network setting window...Please help!
[12:33] <jrib> safwan: come on... why aren't you using pastebin?
[12:33] <raymondjtoth> any one kno
[12:33] <raymondjtoth> know
[12:33] <raymondjtoth> !gizmo
[12:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gizmo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:33] <raymondjtoth> !ask
[12:33] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:33] <Azzkikr> timtux: it's possible using the Scripts right click menu
[12:33] <Jordan_U> safwan, This is fixable but it would probably be easier to just re-install, don't try to install everything :)
[12:33] <cables> magnetron: sure you will, just select the old kernel in the grub menu, or install a commandline IRC client like IRSSI.
[12:33] <Alvenhar> jrib, I reinstalled to make sure I wasn't dirstracted and just typing sth stupid. I'm positive of both user name and pswd
[12:33] <cables> magnetron: whenever you upgrade kernels, the old one is still in your boot mennu.
[12:33] <jrib> Alvenhar: can you login if you hit ctrl-alt-f1?
[12:33] <newb_prob> how can I get cdrecord to work under ubuntu
[12:34] <newb_prob> right now, it calls wodim
[12:34] <newb_prob> and does not work
[12:34] <magnetron> cables: are you sure it will work?
[12:34] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib: i guess its not installed as it can't be found and now i dont know what to think off i guess i wont be able to install packages without a completely reinstall of ubuntu which will make it my 5th and this is just getting annoying
[12:34] <slarty> sidnet22: have you tried this how-to? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31926
[12:34] <safwan> jordan_u do you think it is best if I just reinstalled
[12:34] <gh0stid> nvm.. the dvd has to containt data.. if its blank. it wont show it
[12:34] <cables> magnetron: booting the old kernel?
[12:34] <Alvenhar> jrib, sorry, but what key is fl? I'm no native speaker of english and I don't get every abbreviation...
[12:34] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: pastebin the result of:  sudo apt-get update
[12:34] <magnetron> cables: yeah
[12:34] <Jordan_U> idefixx, I think You could probably use dpkg --set-selections but that seems like a lot of work to do when it would basically just bring you back to a default system anyways
[12:34] <Jordan_U> safwan, Yes
[12:35] <cables> magnetron: definitely. And if it doesn't, just install IRSSI and come back here to talk to us.
[12:35] <NigelS> Alvenhar: I think you've got the wrong end of the stick with regards to what single user mode is.  you know it's all case sensitive and also did you try and use any non-english symbols in it?
[12:35] <jrib> Alvenhar: f1  the letter 'f' with the number '1' on the same key.  It's usually all the way at the top of the keyboard
[12:35] <Alvenhar> jrib, anyway, though, I habven't tried
[12:35] <sx66> does anyone know about the mac web browser on linux?
[12:35] <magnetron> cables: ok, cu
[12:35] <safwan> is there a restore system defualt
[12:35] <cables> sx66: why would you want to run Safari on Linux?
[12:35] <cables> It sucks on the Mac, it sucks on Windows...
[12:35] <jrib> gh0stid: you put a disk in though?
[12:35] <safwan> jordan_u is there any system restore
[12:35] <sx66> do not know, to test it
[12:35] <Madsy> cables: Can I use it as a vacuum cleaner?
[12:35] <cables> sx66: you can try wine, but i haven't tried that yet.
[12:35] <eddyMul> I want to add bind9 to the default runlevel. It doesn't appear in services-admin. I've read wiki:UbuntuBootupHowto. Is sysvconfig the "proper" way to do it?
[12:35] <raymondjtoth> dose any one know how to install gizmo sip phone on ubuntu?
[12:36] <cables> Madsy: probably
[12:36] <soyporti> hey i need someone to check the font type that AMSN brings by default, i change it an now i don't remember its name!!
[12:36] <timtux> Azzkikr, any idea how? Or know where to find a script for it?
[12:36] <sx66> cables, how do you configure wine?
[12:36] <Alvenhar> jrib, I know its case-senstive, I used only standard symbols from the good old ascii table, and I made triple sure i typed it correct without capslock on
[12:36] <cables> raymondjtoth: go to http://gizmoproject.com and download the Debian package
[12:36] <idefixx> Jordan_U: yup exactly my thoughts... its solvable but what the hell keep /home and reinstall :)
[12:36] <raymondjtoth> cable i dont see that
[12:36] <Jordan_U> safwan, Sort of, you can re-install just the applications without loosing any files or preferences if you have a separate /home but I don't think that you do
[12:36] <Azzkikr> timtux: Hm. You can write them yourself, very easily (if you know how to) but there are also websites out there which have such scripts ready for you to use. Let me look it up for a sec.
[12:36] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib: check it out it just hangs and doesn't connect http://pastebin.ca/562835
[12:36] <newb_prob> what happend to cdrecord? I want to use cdrecord; but it callst this wodim prog which does not work for me
[12:36] <soyporti> anyone has AMSN? what is the font's name by default??
[12:36] <raymondjtoth> cable i dont see that on e
[12:36] <AznDinner> hey ghost tyt?
[12:37] <raymondjtoth> were do you finde it on page
[12:37] <jrib> Alvenhar: I suggested trying ctrl-alt-f1 to troubleshoot the issue
[12:37] <Alvenhar> jrib, and thx for the f1, I just didn't recognize the 1 in there... getting late her ;)
[12:37] <cables> sx66: < sudo aptitude install wine > or do it from Applications>Add/Remove
[12:37] <cables> sx66: then run the command < wine whatever-the-exe-is-called.exe > to run it.

[12:38] <gh0stid> whos able to burn xbox360backup with ubuntu ?
[12:38] <safwan> Jordan_U.  I think I will have to reinstall because I have download lots of applications and also i have used automatix . so next time I will download wine first before I download any other programs . I have one user for both home and super user
[12:38] <Alvenhar> jrib, thank you, I'll try that.
[12:38] <sidney22> slarty: I am on a different computer.

[12:38] <sidney22> mc44: I don't know how to.

[12:38] <AznDinner> Can anyone tell me why my computer keeps restarting when i put in the 32 bit of Ubuntu?

[12:39] <ik> hi
[12:39] <jrib> Alvenhar: if it fails also, then I would recommend going into revoery mode and creating a new user 'adduser some_new_name' and seeing if that one works.  If it does, then you can troubleshoot the first user.
[12:39] <mc44> sidney22: well, you need to follow the instructions https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/internet/C/connect-to-internet.html#wireless-ndiswrapper

Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[12:42] <cables> raymondjtoth: then you should be able to double click it and it'll install automatically
[12:42] <raymondjtoth> cable i have it thanks

[12:42] <cables> raymondjtoth: it should automatically install everything you need when you hit install.
[12:42] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: actually, just do this:  gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list    and delete everything you see there.  Then replace it with the online one you created
[12:42] <newb_prob> INTit: are you saying that Joradn_U's link's material is broken, or were you answering a different equation?

[12:43] <Syentifiq1> hey I have a question about the desktop effects in gnome
[12:44] <AznDinner> Why does it keep restarting after Caldera loads
[12:44] <raymondjtoth> ok ty
[12:44] <AznDinner> >_<
[12:44] <Dacvak> Yeah, so I burned a Windows XP MCE DVD... I put it in, hoping I could reformat my MBR or something. It would only let me reinstall Windows, which I don't want to do. Now guess what... GRUB is completely GONE. All my computer does when I boot it is post, and then reboot. It's a fscking infinite loop!
[12:44] <Dacvak> Ubuntu SUICIDE bombed Windows XP!!! Now there's NOTHING on my computer.
[12:44] <mc44> !grub | Dacvak
[12:44] <Jordan_U> !grub | Dacvak Look at the link for re-installing grub

[12:46] <orbisvicis> "umount: only root can unmount /dev/scd0 from /media/cdrom0"
[12:46] <cables> Dacvak: there's a "recovery console" on every Windows install CD

[12:46] <orbisvicis> why?

[12:49] <Kaur> Jordan_U: K. The problem is that gnome-power manager doesn't detect it's running on a laptop... After reinstalling hal and some other packages it works until reboot. So I blame hald:)

[12:49] <jlu> aaargh. howcome everything ALMOST works in ubuntu?
[12:49] <AznDinner> Can any1 help me ? my computer keeps restarting after i try to load the alternative version of 32 bit Ubuntu
[12:49] <AznDinner> how can i a install a 32 version of ubuntu if every 32bit keeps restarting my computer/?
[12:49] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib: do i need to restart?
[12:50] <INTit> Why the hell is eclipse so slow
[12:50] <binvij> how to use a theme from emerald theme manager
[12:50] <Jordan_U> AznDinner, Do any other LiveCDs work?
[12:50] <Kaur> AznDinner: the installation itself went smoothly?
[12:50] <binvij> i dont see an apply option
[12:50] <idefixx> INTit: because its java.. also it works fine over here.
[12:50] <AznDinner> no i cant even isntall it
[12:50] <Azzkikr> idefixx: java is not slow. Your computer is.
[12:50] <AznDinner> im trying to install it now
[12:50] <SpeakerMania> How do I scan my Widnows drive for viruses?
[12:50] <Azzkikr> INTit: are you using Sun's JRE?
[12:50] <SpeakerMania> Widnows
[12:51] <Kaur> AznDinner: and the boot priority is correct in bios?
[12:51] <INTit> yea
[12:51] <Blue42> netbeans works alot better in linux, seems faster than eclipse
[12:51] <SpeakerMania> Windows
[12:51] <AznDinner> i dont know but i can install the 64 bit perfectly
[12:51] <Jordan_U> SpeakerMania, You can use clamav but I don't think it can remove them, just detect them
[12:51] <INTit> My computers fast enough to justify its either the os or eclipse that is slow
[12:51] <Kaur> AznDinner: :D K
[12:51] <Azzkikr> INTit: ok odd. Normally the GCJ JRE is the one which is more slow
[12:51] <idefixx> Azzkikr: no java is no resource hog...
[12:51] <Jordan_U> AznDinner, Try the Alternate install CD
[12:51] <idefixx> Azzkikr: also i said it works fine here ^^
[12:51] <AznDinner> I am using the alternative -.-

[01:07] <SpeakerMania> Wired.
[01:07] <Jordan_U> FluxTendu, That is strictly not possible with just a symbolic link as it just links to the folder AFIK, you may be able to replicate the same result some other way
[01:07] <AznDinner2> but why would it work with the 64 bit?
[01:07] <SpeakerMania> Wierd

[01:16] <sidney22> am running ubuntu 6.06 with ad-link g510 wireless adpter.  The adapter is still not listed in the Network settings window.  I have installed ndiswrapper, but still no go. Help please.
[01:16] <Jordan_U> gnomefreak, That won't give any useful output :)
[01:16] <tannerld> is there a tone generator for ubuntu?
[01:16] <Thinh> live cd wont work for me even in safe graphics mode i have ati x1350
[01:16] <gnomefreak> Jordan_U: it should or you are looking at output caused by running it with sudo
[01:17] <Thinh> and it is connected to the dvi port on my graphics card
[01:17] <Technqe> now my terminal keeps crashing wtf is going on
[01:18] <SpeakerMania> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25334/  Where do I get those plugins?
[01:18] <Thinh> i am downloading the alternative cd to see if i can install in text mode
[01:18] <Thinh> anyone have any clue why it acting up?
[01:18] <NigelS> Dacvak: what result of trying that sequence?
[01:18] <Jordan_U> gnomefreak, Wow, for some reason I though gksu and gksudo didn't output errors to stderror / out, did not do that before?
[01:18] <Thinh> i am also downloading the 64bit since i uppgrade my cpu to c2d
[01:18] <gnomefreak> Jordan_U: they always have afaik
[01:19] <nero> Does anyone here use sshfs to r/w remote (ssh) file systems?  I have installed sshfs, have added myself to the fuse usergroup, and can mount my remote directory, but cant write to it (permission denied).  Any ideas?
[01:19] <gnomefreak> Jordan_U: if the app fails the terminal will output it no matter how you run it
[01:19] <sidney22> am running ubuntu 6.06 with ad-link g510 wireless adpter.  The adapter is still not listed in the Network settings window.  I have installed ndiswrapper, but still no go. Help please.
[01:19] <idefixx> nero: are you using the same user to access it and to mount it.
[01:20] <nero> idefixx, no- my user on this machine is one id, the other machine has an entirely different uid.
[01:20] <Arrick> how do I get the 5.10 liveCD to accept 1024x768 resolutions
[01:20] <nero> any way to get around this?
[01:20] <^rike^> jrib: thank you very much for your help; after changing the changelog, rebuilding the package and installing it, i was able successfully do the pinning of the package
[01:20] <idefixx> nero: im talking about the local machine.
[01:21] <nero> idefixx, yes.. I am using the same user to mount and (hopefully) read/write.
[01:21] <SpeakerMania> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25334/ Please help
[01:21] <Jordan_U> Technqe, Ok, try running this in a terminal, it should put the output in a text file in your home folder: gksudo "synaptic > output.txt"
[01:21] <nero> when I list the remote directory, all of the ownership is the uid of my remote user, which I think is causing the problem.
[01:21] <idefixx> nero: rw access depends entirly upon what user u ssh to on the remote machine.. if he has rw your mount will have rwm, too. fuse magic :)
[01:22] <Arrick> jrib you remember 5.10?
[01:22] <Frogzoo> Arrick: run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[01:22] <idefixx> nero: if you just cant access it.. are you sure u supplied a valid path? sshfs doesnt complain on mount.. you just cant access the dir.
[01:22] <Technqe> does anyone know how to fix synaptic from crashing
[01:22] <codecaine> how can I get my usb ntfs drives to load ntfs-3g on boot?
[01:22] <Arrick> Frogzoo on a livecd?
[01:22] <d__> sup
[01:22] <Frogzoo> Arrick: sure
[01:22] <Jordan_U> codecaine, install "ntfs-config"
[01:22] <Arrick> Frogzoo I cant see to get a terminal
[01:22] <d__> anyon know a program that makes iso's
[01:22] <codecaine> ty
[01:22] <nero> idefixx, yes, my remote user has RW access..  and thats the way I thought it should work (fuse magic), but it isnt working that way..
[01:23] <Frogzoo> Arrick: ctrl alt f1 ?
[01:23] <nero> I can list the directory, and read files, but cant write. :(
[01:23] <[Hyarion] > uhoh, either I've got a recurring problem or my bug reporter is broken. Everytime I boot up the Bot Reporting Tool pops up, and everytime I exit/click ok, it pops up again...anyone had this issue?
[01:23] <xelnaga666> @d k3b, brassero
[01:23] <Technqe> does anyone know how to fix synaptic from crashing
[01:23] <sidney22> am running ubuntu 6.06 with ad-link g510 wireless adpter.  The adapter is still not listed in the Network settings window.  I have installed ndiswrapper, but still no go. Help please.
[01:23] <Technqe> does anyone know how to fix synaptic from crashing
[01:23] <Arrick> not working Frogzoo
[01:23] <idefixx> nero: odd i got sshfs to my local server from this normal user to remote root (on an old debian sarge= works perfect.
[01:23] <BFG> crashing how?
[01:23] <SpeakerMania> How do I connect to another computer on my network with an IP?
[01:24] <idefixx> nero: can you access to files read?
[01:24] <Technqe> i would open it and less then 2 sec later it would close
[01:24] <fuzzyhair> I am running a server out of my house. My parent's keep getting an ip conflict dialog on their windows laptop. It has to do with the ip that i used to set up my LAMP server. How can I change this?
[01:24] <BFG> have you tried launching it in terminal so you can see if it leaves an error message?
[01:24] <Frogzoo> Arrick: which vid card?
[01:24] <nero> idefixx, yup.. its strange..
[01:24] <SpeakerMania> How do I connect to another computer on my network with an IP?
[01:24] <kitche> fuzzyhair: umm change the ip's the dhcp server hands out
[01:24] <Jordan_U> Technqe, Does apt / dpkg work?
[01:25] <Technqe> Segmentation fault
[01:25] <Thinh> anyone experience with ati card?
[01:25] <Arrick> Frogzoo its on my IBM T60 Laptop
[01:25] <Jordan_U> SpeakerMania, Connect in what way? ssh?
[01:25] <idefixx> nero: wait let me see what my local permissions say
[01:25] <Thinh> maybe i should just get a nvidia card
[01:25] <Technqe> thats the error i got when i tried opennig it in the terminal
[01:25] <BFG> what do you need help with an ati card?
[01:25] <fuzzyhair> kitche:how do I do that?
[01:25] <SpeakerMania> Jordan_: Like a remote Desktop
[01:25] <BFG> just configuring it or opengl support
[01:25] <Thinh> seems linux has better support for nvidia
[01:25] <SpeakerMania> Jordan_U: remote desktop
[01:25] <kitche> fuzzyhair: you have a router correct?
[01:25] <BFG> yea the linux ati drivers are horrible
[01:25] <nero> I have a directory called "monty".. that is the target.  before using sshfs, the owner of "monty" is localuser.localuser, after I do the sshfs, monty's owner changes to 501.501, which is the UID of my remote user.
[01:25] <fuzzyhair> kitche: yes
[01:25] <Technqe> i think dpkg had a error on installation
[01:25] <fuzzyhair> Kitche: may I pm you?
[01:25] <kitche> fuzzyhair: log into it and change the dhcp settings for it
[01:25] <d__> does anyone know of any programs to make iso's ?
[01:26] <Jordan_U> SpeakerMania, Use "rdesktop" I think
[01:26] <d__> plz pm me
[01:26] <idefixx> nero: owner and groub say root here.. so i shouldnt be able to write to it... but because of fuse i can.
[01:26] <BFG> k3b makes isos
[01:26] <SpeakerMania> thanks
[01:26] <BFG> i believe gnome baker also does
[01:26] <fuzzyhair> kitche: okay logging on
[01:26] <Technqe> wtf
[01:26] <xelnaga666> @d__ k3b, brassero
[01:26] <orbisvicis> ok, I have verified that the error is not from afuse or fuseiso, fstab is correct, and permissions on the cds/dvds are also correct, and I am part of the cd user group, so why do I get this error when unmounting non-music cds & dvds: unmount only root can unmount /dev/scd0 from /media/cdrom0 .. could it be a pam error, apache krb5 php5 ?
[01:26] <d__> ahh
[01:26] <d__> thanks
[01:26] <xelnaga666> @d__ not sure but I think gnomebaker does too
[01:26] <nero> idefixx humm, thats different than what I have going on here.. :(  should it matter if my target mount point is in my home directory?
[01:31] <nero> or do I have to make it something outside of my home dir?
[01:31] <Sh3r1ff> xelnaga666: gnomebaker can
[01:31] <nero> (the local mount point that is)
[01:31] <idefixx> nero: I mount to ~/home/mount/foo .. mount has my user.group foo has root:root.
[01:31] <BFG> is anyone in here running triple monitors that can offer me some suggestions for my xorg.conf?
[01:31] <d__> so kb and gnomebaker :D
[01:31] <Flannel> orbisvicis: You're doing this from apache?  is www-data part of the cd group?
[01:31] <nero> ok. let me try changing the owner of ~/home/monty to root.root and see if that fixes things.
[01:31] <huzz> hello, i need a little azureus assistance. I used the apt-get install java-package command az was eating all the resources, then i installed using add/remove java 5.1. Az stopped starting completly.
[01:31] <idefixx> nero: i dont think... never tried it different thou.
[01:31] <Technqe> Jordan_U: the dpkg had a error on installation
[01:31] <kitche> fuzzyhair: yeah you can pm me if you wish
[01:31] <Technqe> how would i fix that
[01:31] <Cleric> hello friends. i've just installed ubuntu on my xp box and im excited but i need your help. I had xp on 1 drive, removed it so no files would get damaged and installed ubuntu on my 2nd drive. only problem i have is with booting (grub i think)
[01:31] <nero> nope..  now it tells me that "user has no write access to mountpoint"
[01:31] <Sh3r1ff> huzz: apt-get install sun-java5-jre
[01:31] <orbisvicis> Flannel, i just installed apache to learn it, but I havent configured it in any way .. how do I add www-data ?
[01:31] <fuzzyhair> kitche: did you just get my im?
[01:31] <huzz> Sh3r1ff, shouldn't i uninstall the ones i've installed first though?
[01:31] <Blueeye> hi, who have the vmware-player installed
[01:31] <Blueeye> i need the /etc/vmware archives
[01:31] <idefixx> nero: but essential it is the same for you. its just that your local system doesnt have a user 501 (or whater ever the id was)
[01:31] <Cleric> it seems (grub?) has not recognised any other OSs on the box and gives no option to boot it
[01:31] <Flannel> orbisvicis: Well, are you trying to get apache to read CDs or something?  Or are they unrelated?
[01:31] <Cleric> how do I amend this?
[01:31] <Sh3r1ff> huzz: you can
[01:31] <Jordan_U> Technqe, What do you mean by that, can you pastbin any errors you see?
[01:31] <huzz> its ok if i don't?
[01:31] <sigp239> does ubuntu support logitech ultravision webcams?
[01:31] <Flannel> Cleric: you'll need to add the menu entries manually to grub config
[01:31] <Technqe> wtf
[01:31] <Sh3r1ff> huzz: it should workleaving them installed
[01:31] <Technqe> you asked if apt / dpkg worked
[01:31] <Technqe> and i am saying dpkg failed on installation
[01:31] <Sh3r1ff> huzz: if not, ry removing them
[01:31] <kitche> fuzzyhairno you need to be registered and identified to nickserv though
[01:31] <Technqe> how can i now fix that
[01:31] <Flannel> Technqe: "gave errors" still doesn't tell us how it failed, or what the error is
[01:31] <huzz> Sh3r1ff, how do i go about removing them?
[01:31] <nero> idefixx, 501 is the default user on many distros.. whereas ubuntu uses 101 I believe.
[01:31] <orbisvicis> Flannel, no I just installed about 180 packages then I get this error so Im having trouble narrowing it down ... I am not trying to get apache to do anything
[01:31] <nero> but I didn't think your uids had to match with sshfs.
[01:31] <jaks> Cleric: sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst --- theres a Windows boot sample in there as long as you know the partition
[01:31] <Thinh> i cant even get to install on my machine with ati card
[01:31] <huzz> Sh3r1ff, java 5.1 ok but the java-package, how do i remove that apt-get ?
[01:31] <Cleric> Flannel: i dnt yet want to fiddle with config files if avoidable, can i automate it somehow? download a program to do it for me?
[01:31] <Technqe> ok but then how would i install dpkg
[01:31] <Thinh> the screen goes black when i use the safe mode
[01:31] <jaks> Cleric: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub
[01:31] <Sh3r1ff> huzz: apt-get uninstall package
[01:31] <Technqe> because i think that may be the problem
[01:31] <Flannel> Cleric: It's no big deal, it's just a config file.  Just make sure you add them at the very end (after ## end debian automagic kernels)
[01:31] <huzz> ok thanks a bunch
[01:31] <idefixx> nero: well im not sure how fuse handles this... maybe the remote user has to exist localy... dont know why thou.
[01:31] <Drk_Guy> Hi!!!1
[01:31] <Sh3r1ff> huzz: dpkg --purge pzckage works too
[01:31] <Thinh> anyone got ati x1350 pro to install
[01:31] <Ghost_Auk> sigp239:  www.linuxformat.co.uk  has an article about installing webcams  (not sure where)
[01:31] <Flannel> Technqe: dpkg is already installed, if it's not, you have other major issues
[01:31] <Drk_Guy> Why GRUB isn't loading?
[01:31] <idefixx> nero: also, i did not change the permission of the mount dir localy it just changes when i mount.. logicly because the inode doesnt point to the local fs anymore.
[01:31] <Technqe> but it isn't
[01:32] <Drk_Guy> It just boots Windoze without any question
[01:32] <Thinh> oh yeah i got error 21 after a clean installation of fiesty any one?
[01:32] <fuzzyhair> kitche: I figured it out. My electric went out and my router assigned me 192.168.101 instead of .100. How can I stop this from happening?
[01:32] <Technqe> so is there something i can do to install it were can i find it
[01:32] <Drk_Guy> FuzzyHair
[01:32] <Drk_Guy> Assign youself a Static Ip
[01:32] <Flannel> Technqe: dpkg isn't installed?  How do you know?  Pastebin your error
[01:32] <Drk_Guy> I use it all the times
[01:32] <nero> aha..  I had to do a -o idmap=user, to map my username to the connecting uid.
[01:32] <orbisvicis> ok extra info: anything not specified in removable drives and media prefs : (ie data cd/dvd) get this root umount error
[01:32] <Technqe> what do you mean by pastebin
[01:32] <Flannel> !paste | Technqe
[01:32] <ubotu> Technqe: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[01:33] <Drk_Guy> Why GRUB isn't loading?
[01:33] <nero> idefixx, I am guessing why it is working for you is because your uid on the remote and local machine are the same.
[01:33] <Technqe> !paste
[01:33] <idefixx> nero: and now it works? gott remember that.. i wounder why it works here. probably because my remote is root.
[01:33] <nero> yup.. now it works fine.
[01:33] <Drk_Guy> Technqe, go to the website, put your name, and your error
[01:33] <huzz> Drk_Guy, i had the same problem, look up super grub on google, burn the image and boot up follow simple options and your good to go
[01:34] <Drk_Guy> Ty
[01:34] <Drk_Guy> but i have Dial-Up by now
[01:34] <huzz> its very small the image
[01:34] <idefixx> nero: all my local servers have synced userdbs.. for odd lazy reasons :) that probably why it allways worked for me.
[01:34] <huzz> 4 mb max
[01:34] <Drk_Guy> How can i repair LILO without re-installing Ubuntu
[01:34] <Drk_Guy> Ok
[01:34] <Flannel> Drk_Guy: Error 21 means that GRUB in your MBR can't find /boot
[01:34] <Drk_Guy> I'll google it up then
[01:35] <nero> yup.. :)  Well, if you ever run into this issue, remember the -o uid=user command :)
[01:35] <Cleric> is there any website with step by step instructions for sorting out grub? please remember i've spent an hour with linux i barely know what the terminal is
[01:35] <Drk_Guy> I think the reason is that i had to (re) install Windoze
[01:35] <idefixx> nero: i will :)
[01:35] <Thinh> anyone have success with ati?
[01:35] <Drk_Guy> So, the structures changed, and Winlo overcame LILO
[01:35] <newb_prob> how do I find what provides "libxml/parser.h" ?
[01:36] <nero> (btw: most of my machines have synced userdbs.. but this one is not a machine administered by me- its a remote server)
[01:36] <arash_> Hello, how can I edit xorg.conf.custom?
[01:36] <Technqe> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25335/
[01:36] <nero> well, time to try to be productive again.
[01:36] <orbisvicis> arash gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf.custom
[01:36] <huzz> arash, sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf.custom
[01:36] <Jordan_U> Thinh, I have, have you tried installing from the Alternate CD or installing fglrx from the LiveCD?
[01:36] <Cleric> any simple instructions to dual boot xp/ubuntu with grub?
[01:37] <Thinh> i have not been able to get into live cd
[01:37] <Flannel> Cleric: alt-f2 (opens a run dialog) then `gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst` (copy/paste the stuff in the quotes), that'll bring up a text editor. The next part depends on where windows is installed.  It's probably hda1, do you know if it's otherwise?  You put Linux on a new partition on your windows HDD? or on a separate one entirely?
[01:37] <k1gwb> is there anything you have to do after editing menu.lst for grub?  I remember with lilo if you didn't run lilo after editing then you were screwed... am i safe?
[01:37] <Thinh> when i use live cd the screen goes black
[01:37] <Jordan_U> !dual boot | Cleric
[01:37] <ubotu> Cleric: Dual boot instructions:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo (x86/AMD64) - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot (Macintosh)
[01:37] <Thinh> that when it loading up x window
[01:37] <cyros> yea install just install ubuntu and use the grub loader it will do it for you
[01:37] <Flannel> k1gwb: nope, it gets re-read each boot
[01:37] <idefixx> huzz: http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?word=libxml%2Fparser.h&searchmode=searchword&case=insensitive&version=feisty&arch=i386
[01:37] <Drk_Guy> Huzz, the only thing i see is something like "Super Grub Disk old webpage" when i search for Super GRUB on Google
[01:37] <Technqe> where can i get dpkg
[01:37] <Frias> hi
[01:37] <k1gwb> Flannel: thanks :) thought so, but didn't wanna find out i was wrong next time I rebooted :)
[01:37] <Flannel> !grub | Drk_Guy, first link, reinstall GRUB
[01:37] <ubotu> Drk_Guy, first link, reinstall GRUB: 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
[01:38] <huzz> idefixx, ?
[01:38] <Thinh> i cant use the safe graphics option either
[01:38] <Thinh> that one also goes black
[01:38] <Drk_Guy> Thanks Flannel
[01:38] <orbisvicis> Flannel: is there any way I can figure out/narrow-down the error ?
[01:38] <Thinh> so i have no way of installing it
[01:38] <idefixx> huzz: damn it.. i allways get the wrong nick today. sry :)
[01:38] <huzz> np :)
[01:38] <Flannel> Technqe: That pastebin doesn't help.  Paste the error the command gives you in a terminal
[01:38] <Drk_Guy> (Shitty Dial-Up)
[01:38] <Cleric> flannel: linux is on new hard drive, windows on old hard drive, 2 separate drives
[01:38] <Thinh> i am downloading the alternative cd as we speak and hopefully it will install
[01:38] <Ghost_Auk> from a remote computer, do you need the username & passowrd to print to a print-server?
[01:38] <Jordan_U> Thinh, ATI hates Linux, the only way to get X on some cards is to install fglrx first
[01:38] <k1gwb> !lang | Drk_Guy
[01:38] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lang - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:38] <k1gwb> psh fine
[01:38] <Flannel> Cleric: alright.  Windows is on primary master? linux is on primary slave? or SATA? or what?
[01:39] <cyros> Thinh: i had to use the alt cd also for my install worked great
[01:39] <Thinh> how do i do that without live cd?
[01:39] <jaks> an easy way to set up a samba share accessible by other win2000/XP pc's without a password?
[01:39] <Thinh> i c
[01:39] <Flannel> Thinh: Alternate CD will work fine
[01:39] <arash_> Ok srry guys I have Kubuntu
[01:39] <huzz> jaks, adding the password is very simple
[01:39] <arash_> what command to edit protected text fuke=
[01:39] <Thinh> once the alt install will it boot up?
[01:39] <Frias> hi
[01:39] <SpeakerMania> does the other computer have to be running linux for me to access it?
[01:39] <Frias> how are u
[01:39] <Flannel> arash_: kdesu kate [file] 
[01:39] <jaks> huzz: the password is what I want to avoid
[01:39] <Thinh> or do i have to install other thing after i use the alt cd?
[01:40] <Flannel> arash_: or sudo nano [file] , in a terminal
[01:40] <Technqe> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25337/
[01:40] <Flannel> Thinh: Alternate CD and Desktop CD install the same thing (well, alt has other options too)
[01:40] <Technqe> PLEASE HELP!!!
[01:40] <Jordan_U> Thinh, Once you install from the alternate install CD you will need to install fglrx from the terminal
[01:40] <Technqe> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25337/
[01:40] <Cleric> i THINK Windows is on sata, linux on primary slave, i think
[01:40] <huzz> jaks, have you tried just pressing enter? when it asks for a password?
[01:40] <Thinh> hmm
[01:40] <jaks> huzz: added a share through the Sys->Admin->Shared Folders, accessing from windows requires a un and pass
[01:40] <Thinh> any guide to install it from terminal
[01:40] <Cleric> if you instruct me how to find out i can try to do that
[01:40] <Flannel> Technqe: We can't help you until you help us.  What command gave you an error in the terminal?  Paste that, and the error, to pastebin.
[01:41] <jaks> huzz: it requires my username and password
[01:41] <arash_> Kdesu dont work
[01:41] <Thinh> sudo fglrx?
[01:41] <huzz> jaks, you need to add a user
[01:41] <Flannel> Cleric: `sudo fdisk -l` from a terminal
[01:41] <Jordan_U> Technqe, Yes, dpkg  is *verry* important, but what makes you think that you don't have it?
[01:41] <Flannel> arash_: kdesu, not Kdesu, case sensitive
[01:41] <Thinh> apt-get fglrx?
[01:41] <jaks> huzz: i dont want to add a user, im the only one who uses this machine, i just need accessible shares
[01:41] <huzz> jaks, you need to add a user that has access on the linux box
[01:41] <specialbuddy> how do I find out the harddrive in grub
[01:41] <Technqe> when i installed ubuntu it failed
[01:41] <huzz> jaks, samba requires for you to add a user, its like you need to add "Guest"
[01:41] <Gothfunc> hi.  i have edgy server installed.  what's the quickest way to install X?
[01:41] <huzz> jaks, so you can access
[01:41] <NigelS> Technqe: describe the error
[01:42] <Flannel> Technqe: if your install didn't complete successfully, you should reinstall
[01:42] <specialbuddy> like hd0,X, how do I find out which is which
[01:42] <Flannel> Gothfunc: full desktop? or what?
[01:42] <Thinh> oh yeah i uppgrade to a c2d and used to have i386 the standard version dont think that would have made any differene?
[01:42] <Flannel> specialbuddy: All IDE? SATA+IDE? all SATA?
[01:42] <specialbuddy> sata
[01:42] <Gothfunc> Flannel: i just want to be able to use ldap guis
[01:42] <Arrick> Frogzoo I got it to terminal finally, after dozens of reboots, what was that command again?
[01:42] <jaks> huzz: so what does Windows send as a username for 'guest' access?
[01:42] <Jordan_U> Thinh, sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx && sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh
[01:42] <huzz> jaks, what is your account on the linux called?
[01:42] <Cleric> im on my windows drive atm, ill boot onto the linux and install IRC on it. which popular client works with linux?
[01:42] <googlesearch7> how do i get this to work?
[01:42] <NemesisD> SpeakerMania, try sudo lshw -C disk
[01:42] <jaks> huzz: jak
[01:42] <NemesisD> amirite
[01:42] <NemesisD> sorry specialbuddy *
[01:42] <Flannel> specialbuddy: sda1 is hd0,0; sdb1 is hd1,0, sda2 is hd0,1 (subtract one from each thing)
[01:43] <Thinh> okey thanks let my try that
[01:43] <specialbuddy> ok
[01:43] <specialbuddy> thanks
[01:43] <Technqe> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25337/
[01:43] <huzz> jaks, fine type sudo smbpasswd -a jak
[01:43] <Frogzoo> Arrick: run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[01:43] <googlesearch7> .commands
[01:43] <Jordan_U> Cleric, Xchat is good, Gaim will work but is not great for IRC ( it's there by default though )
[01:43] <googlesearch7> damnit!!
[01:43] <arash_> how do i save in nano terminal, it says ^O , what does it mean?
[01:43] <Flannel> Cleric: xchat-gnome (in main) is a GUI, irssi is a terminal based one (but you have a GUI)
[01:43] <Arrick> hrmm, Frogzoo its saying sudo isnt a command
[01:43] <Flannel> arash_: ctrl-O to save, ctrl-X to quit
[01:43] <huzz> jaks, hit enter for the new password and retype the password
[01:43] <Frias> i need a console
[01:43] <Technqe> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25337/
[01:43] <ET_> how do I load onto gamesurge server?
[01:43] <Frias> for my pc
[01:44] <Frias> very lite
[01:44] <jmg> how can I install the gutsy kernel, and all modules and nescessary packages on feisty?
[01:44] <arash_> Thanks flannel
[01:44] <Cleric> is GAIM preinstalled? if so i'll just use that for now and change later?
[01:44] <Flannel> Technqe: we can't help you until you do what we ask you to do.
[01:44] <Gothfunc> Flannel: why what are the options?
[01:44] <huzz> jaks, then type sudo gedit /etc/init.d/samba/smbusers
[01:44] <Frias> around 10 mb
[01:44] <jaks> huzz: okay, testing..
[01:44] <Flannel> Cleric: GAIM is preinstalled
[01:44] <Technqe> and that is
[01:44] <Technqe> ?
[01:44] <Cleric> thank you
[01:44] <Cleric> ill be back shortly
[01:44] <Jordan_U> Technqe, Why do you think dpkg is not installed?
[01:44] <Flannel> Technqe: In a terminal, do the command that gives you the error, copy/paste the command/error it spits back into pastebin
[01:45] <Technqe> IM NOT USING THE TERMINAL
[01:45] <huzz> jaks, files gonna open up empty, type there -> input < system_username = "jak"
[01:45] <Flannel> Gothfunc: which options?
[01:45] <Jordan_U> !caps | Technqe
[01:45] <ubotu> Technqe: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[01:45] <Technqe> and if i was what command should i use
[01:45] <SpeakerMania> NemesisD: Why?
[01:45] <huzz> jaks, save the file, then type sudo /etc/init.d/samab restart
[01:45] <Gothfunc> Flannel: <Flannel> Gothfunc: full desktop? or what? <Gothfunc> Flannel: i just want to be able to use ldap guis <Gothfunc> Flannel: why what are the options?
[01:45] <Technqe> sorry im just mad
[01:45] <Gothfunc> Flannel: make sense>?
[01:45] <huzz> jaks, try access the pc, putting username is jak and nothing for the password :p
[01:45] <Jordan_U> Technqe, Why do you think that you don't have dpkg?
[01:45] <Flannel> Technqe: open up a terminal, type `dpkg -l` (that's an L) it should give you abig list.  If it does, you have dpkg
[01:45] <NemesisD> SpeakerMania, sorry, i messed up on my tab completion
[01:46] <Drk_Guy> Huzz, you said it was 4 Mb's, it ACTUALLY is 189 Mb in total, don't lie please
[01:46] <Arrick> what is the default passwd for ubuntu 5.1?
[01:46] <arash_> is it normal to get "command not found" if you shell "sudo nvidia-settings"
[01:46] <arash_> ?
[01:46] <Arrick> for the ubuntu user on the live cd
[01:46] <huzz> Drk_Guy, dude your in the wrong place
[01:46] <huzz> Drk_Guy, hang on let me grab you the link
[01:46] <SpeakerMania> NemesisD: Can you help me with remote desktop?
[01:46] <Gothfunc> Flannel: basically i want anything, as long as i can use gui config tools
[01:46] <Drk_Guy> Ok
[01:46] <bastid_raZor> apparently nvidia-settings isn't a command
[01:46] <bobsumone_>  will Ubuntu Desktop 7.04 run on a 1.8ghz/128mb system?
[01:46] <NemesisD> SpeakerMania, probably not :(
[01:46] <Jordan_U> Arrick, It should log in automatically then you can use sudo without a password
[01:46] <bobsumone_>  is someone trying to set up samba on server?
[01:46] <Flannel> Gothfunc: Ah.  Well, a full GUI is ubuntu-desktop, which you probably don't want.  You just want Xserver, and maybe a lightweight window manager.  Xserver is `xserver-xorg` then if you want a WM, youcould try fluxbox or blackbox or something (those are in universe)
[01:47] <Shaddox> Does anyone know why I can't burn DVD's? I get an input/output error whenever I try to burn.
[01:47] <Gothfunc> Flannel: if i install gnome, will it just be edgy desktop then?
[01:47] <mifritscher-> bobsumone_, it would work, but whz onlz 128 mb ram_
[01:47] <Jordan_U> bobsumone_, It will run but you may want to use Xubuntu and you will definitely need to use the alternate install CD
[01:47] <Arrick> Jordan_U its telling me that sudo is not a command
[01:47] <Flannel> Gothfunc: yeah.  ubuntu-desktop (not `gnome` which is in universe)
[01:47] <Technqe> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25339/
[01:48] <Flannel> Arrick: That's a bad CD.
[01:48] <Drk_Guy> Shadoxx, are you sure your burner supports DVD-RW
[01:48] <SpeakerMania> NemesisD: How do you highlight the words so they are red?
[01:48] <Arrick> Flannel Im using it on another box at the same time lol
[01:48] <NemesisD> SpeakerMania, they get highlighted in xchat when somebody uses your name
[01:48] <bobsumone_>  Jordan_U: what is Xubuntu all about?
[01:48] <Gothfunc> Flannel: could i not just install gnome?
[01:48] <huzz> Drk_Guy, http://forjamari.linex.org/frs/?group_id=61 (download any of the ones from under CDROM, extract and burn)
[01:48] <Flannel> Arrick: then it's a bad CDrom drive.  Sometimes crappy CDs give you login dialogs, for some reason.
[01:48] <jaks> huzz: thank you
[01:48] <SpeakerMania> NemesisD, so this is highlighted?
[01:48] <Gothfunc> Flannel: rather than ubuntu-desktop?
[01:48] <huzz> jaks, np
[01:48] <fuzzyhai2> How can I set up a static ip with a d-link router?
[01:48] <NemesisD> SpeakerMania, yes
[01:49] <Drk_Guy> Huzz, already tried that
[01:49] <Frias> hello
[01:49] <SpeakerMania> NemesisD, cool, lol, thanks
[01:49] <Frias> hollas
[01:49] <huzz> Drk_Guy, thats 400kb
[01:49] <Flannel> Gothfunc: you could, that'd be "stock" gnome, not the ubuntu flavor.  I'm... not too sure about what it contains other than the default gnome apps (epiphany instead of FF, etc)
[01:49] <Drk_Guy> FF tells it is off-line/un-reachable
[01:49] <Technqe> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25339/
[01:49] <huzz> Drk_Guy, what were you talking about
[01:49] <Frias> ineed a console
[01:49] <Gothfunc> Flannel: ok, thanks :)
[01:49] <Jordan_U> bobsumone_, It is A version of ubuntu that comes with lighter weight applications installed by default, most notably it uses XFCE as the window manager ( GUI ) instead of Gnome
[01:49] <jinx099> fuzzyhai2: have you tried RTFM?
[01:49] <Frias> what u think
[01:49] <Frogzoo> fuzzyhai2: if you run nat on the router, you can statc route to the router, yes
[01:49] <Technqe> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25339/
[01:49] <Flannel> Technqe: right.  That Shows that you DO have dpkg installed.
[01:49] <Drk_Guy> Huzz, Firefox (FF for short) tells it doesn't find the server
[01:50] <Drk_Guy> Any open source lover should know that
[01:50] <Frias> but i work for windows
[01:50] <codecaine> I have a vfat harddrive external harddrive that don't auto mount on boot how can I make it so it auto mounts?
[01:50] <huzz> Drk_Guy, http://forjamari.linex.org/frs/download.php/605/sgd_0.9598.iso.bz2

[01:51] <idefixx> Frias: damn it.. wasnt for you. sry.
[01:51] <Drk_Guy> FuzzyHai, the Dns servers are provided by your ISP, in the most cases
[01:51] <Flannel> Technqe: Please stop doing that.  When you have questions, you ask them here.  Pastebin is for output and stuff from commands.
[01:51] <Technqe> ok
[01:51] <fuzzyhai2> thx
[01:51] <Frias> hi
[01:51] <Shaddox> Does anyone know why I get input/output errors when I try to burn a DVD? I can burn CD's without a problem, but not DVD's.
[01:52] <Flannel> Technqe: In a terminal, do this: `sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade`  That'll upgrade all your packages to their newest versions.  We'll see how that turns out
[01:52] <Cleric> am i in the right room? flannel and co are you here?
[01:52] <Flannel> Cleric: Aye
[01:52] <Supaplex> what alternative is there to cdrecord/wodim? I'm trying to isolate debian bug #427771, which I get in ubuntu. eg, k3b uses cdrecord, so that does not help either.
[01:53] <xenex> What is the default font for Ubuntu? Sans, what size?
[01:53] <Drk_Guy> Huzz, anyway, i'll try the Official GRUB installing method from the LiveCD
[01:53] <Drk_Guy> Ciao, and Thanx to everyone!!!!
[01:54] <AE86> hi =)
[01:54] <miles_> xenex, Sans 10
[01:54] <Jordan_U> !hi | AE86
[01:54] <ubotu> AE86: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[01:54] <Cleric> the 'sudo fdisk -1' command doesnt work flannel
[01:54] <quangle> hey guys. my ubuntu server just crashed. is there some log I can lookup for the reason it crashed?
[01:55] <Shaddox> quangle: Usually /var/log/syslog.
[01:55] <quangle> Shaddox: thanks. I'm a noob as you can see ;)
[01:55] <Flannel> Cleric: L (lower case) not 1
[01:56] <bluebanana> I'm new. What's the proper, Ubuntu way of installing shockwave into our system?
[01:56] <Cleric> flannel: ok I have a big long list output, what do you need to know?
[01:56] <Flannel> bluebanana: Shockwave has no linux client, so there is no method (ubuntu or not) (well, I suppose maybe via wine or something)
[01:56] <orbisvicis> flannel; would this cause the error : sudo hdparm -d1 /dev/cdrom
[01:56] <Shaddox> bluebanana: Shockwave itself is not implemented for UNI systems.
[01:56] <Shaddox> UNIX*
[01:56] <Flannel> Cleric: Uh, Pastebin might be easiest
[01:57] <bluebanana> Flannel, Shaddox. I'm surprised. Adobe has flash available for unix but not shockwave. Oh well. No problem.
[01:57] <Cleric> flannel: whats pastebin? how do i use it? (sorry for being a noob)
[01:57] <Flannel> !paste | Cleric
[01:57] <ubotu> Cleric: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[01:57] <bluebanana> I just wanted to play an online game.
[01:57] <Shaddox> bluebanana: I'm a gamer. What game?
[01:57] <Shaddox> bluabanana: I should be able to help. ^^
[01:57] <anathematic> what's the console command to set a folders permissions to all?
[01:57] <Shaddox> bluebanana: Or is it one of those web-based ones?
[01:58] <Flannel> anathematic: You usually don't want to do that.  Which folder?
[01:58] <bluebanana> Shaddox, yes, web based
[01:58] <bluebanana> Shaddox, what's your fave games (downloadable)?
[01:58] <Shaddox> bluebanana: You won't be able to play that then, on any UNIX system, except possibly through Wine.
[01:58] <anathematic> Flannel:  it's for a web server over an intranet system, it's okay i'm just going ot change the permissions to 777 so users can upload files and stuff
[01:58] <bluebanana> Shaddox, you played open arena? I can only play a few maps
[01:58] <jasin> i'm getting an error message when ubuntu is loading, how do I fix it?
[01:58] <anathematic> just cannot remember the console command :$
[01:58] <bluebanana> and can't play multiplayer style
[01:58] <Shaddox> bluebanana: There are only a few maps.

[02:01] <Flannel> !repeat | AJ--
[02:01] <ubotu> AJ--: 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
[02:02] <geet> bluebanana, are there a lot of people playing openarena?
[02:02] <jasin> yo
[02:02] <orbisvicis> run dpkg --configure -a in terminal
[02:02] <Cleric> what something else is on sdb1?
[02:02] <NigelS> AJ--: do as it says and type sudo dpkg --configure -a in a terminal( accessories->terminal)
[02:02] <Flannel> Cleric: Having windows on hdb isn't a problem, we just have to do a bit more configuration (we trick windows), because it doesn't like running anywhere but the first drive.
[02:02] <pipegeek> I'm running ubuntu 7.04.  I'm trying to set up ethernet bridging between wlan0 (my wireless adapter) and eth0.  I zero both interface's ip addresses, add the bridge, add both interfaces to the bridge, and run dhclient on the bridge.  Which takes waaay too long, but eventually gets a real IP address.  Only I can't ping anything on either network after doing all this.
[02:02] <pipegeek> What am I missing?
[02:02] <orbisvicis> that is application, accessory, terminal
[02:02] <AJ--> ok ty nigels

[02:03] <Flannel> Cleric: /dev/sdb1               1         967     7310488+   c  W95 FAT32 (LBA), whatever that is (some OEM people put odd mfc specific stuff there)
[02:03] <bluebanana> Catoptromancy, from add/remove i believe.
[02:03] <BFG> yes there is
[02:03] <Cleric> but my WinXP drive IS the main drive all I did was remove it during ubuntu install
[02:03] <jasin> what is n MP-BIOS bug: 8254 timer not connected?
[02:03] <jasin> what is an MP-BIOS bug: 8254 timer not connected?
[02:03] <BFG> kcw1304 open up synaptic and search for ask
[02:03] <Catoptromancy> bluebanana, what version do you have
[02:03] <geet> bluebanana, that's strange, i wonder if i'll be able to work it out
[02:03] <BFG> there should be a gstreamer plugin to allow you to stream windows media streams
[02:03] <Catoptromancy> bluebanana,
[02:04] <Cleric> oh and btw I have a recovery partition for my WinXP drive for re-installing windows
[02:04] <bluebanana> Catoptromancy, i deleted openarena, because i was getting bored playing 5 maps all over and over. so i don't remember the version
[02:04] <Catoptromancy> akk
[02:04] <Flannel> Cleric: Well, when you removed it, they got rearranged.  It's really no big deal though.  We just need to be aware of it.  So, open up your menu.lst (alt-f2 then `gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst`) and then I'll get you what we need.  That recovery might be that partition
[02:04] <kcw1304> BFG, is it called ask? I get a long list of things when I search for 'ask'
[02:04] <jasin> windows xp is off topic
[02:04] <kcw1304> but no ask
[02:04] <Catoptromancy> bluebanana, sudo aptitude install openarena openal0a
[02:04] <BFG> oops
[02:05] <tuxnewb> hiya
[02:05] <jasin> this is a "ubuntu" support channel.
[02:05] <BFG> sporry that was a typo i meant asf*
[02:05] <NigelS> kcw1304: I quite like to use the mplayer plugin for mozilla - the package is called mozilla-mplayer
[02:05] <bluebanana> Catoptromancy, you want me to install the game again?
[02:05] <bluebanana> what does that command do, Catoptromancy
[02:05] <Catoptromancy> well you asked to get it working
[02:05] <NigelS> kcw1304: in combination with the w32codecs that can play almost anything
[02:05] <Cleric> ok doing it now. as far as im aware there's 2 partitions for windows, the main and recovery consoles + linux on the 2nd drive
[02:05] <tuxnewb> can anyone help me with compiling something?
[02:05] <tuxnewb> configure: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check
[02:05] <tuxnewb> ???
[02:05] <Catoptromancy> bluebanana, command installs OA and its lib
[02:05] <bluebanana> i see
[02:06] <tuxnewb> what dies that mean? :/
[02:06] <tuxnewb> *does
[02:06] <jasin> gaming is off topic,  this is a "ubuntu" support channel
[02:06] <killaz> hi how can I mount a cifs mount using fstab with the right uid,gid? Can you give an example pls..
[02:06] <Jordan_U> tuxnewb, What are you trying to compile? Are you sure it's not available in the repos?
[02:06] <kcw1304> nigels, what are/ where do i get w32codecs?
[02:06] <tuxnewb> ntfs-3g
[02:06] <jasin> gaming is off topic,  this is a "ubuntu" support channel
[02:06] <hajhouse> tuxnewb: have you installed the 'build-essential' package? installing that will ensure that you have the c++ compiler and all dependancies
[02:06] <tuxnewb> yes
[02:06] <Shaddox> Does anyone know why this comes up whenever I try and burn a DVD? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25342/
[02:07] <NigelS> kcw1304: go to this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats and follow most of the instructions for whatever you will want to do :)
[02:07] <Cleric> ok opened menu.lst
[02:07] <killaz> plsssss
[02:07] <Jordan_U> tuxnewb, You definately do not have to compile that from source, just install ntfs-config ( of simply ntfs-3g if you don't want the GUI ) from apt / synaptic
[02:07] <killaz> I really need this...
[02:07] <kcw1304> nigels, thanks :)
[02:07] <bluebanana> geet,  i liked enigma
[02:07] <NigelS> kcw1304: and the w32codecs are files that let you play windows media formats etc etc
[02:07] <bluebanana> marble game, geet
[02:07] <killaz> now the cifs mount as root:users
[02:07] <bluebanana> go to add/remove for enigma, geet
[02:07] <jasin> You can play windows media in vlc
[02:07] <geet> bluebanana, lookin at it now
[02:07] <killaz> I already tried wth uid=,gid parameters in the fstab
[02:08] <jasin> I do it all the time.

[02:08] <jasin> IndyGunFreak, codecs is off-topic, this is a ubuntu support channel.
[02:08] <IndyGunFreak> jasin: no its not, you asked how to play windows media files

[02:09] <NET||abuse> this won't cause issues for me will it?
[02:09] <IndyGunFreak> no you didn't, indeed.
[02:09] <bluebanana> geet,  i like 3d shooters, too
[02:09] <IndyGunFreak> my bad.. regardless, its not off topic at all.
[02:09] <NigelS> geet: did you ever play savage? cool game, compatible with linux - savage 2 is out soonish(tm) :)

[02:13] <idefixx> digip1mp: i have no idea how to build it on ubuntu... building psybnc on sarge was easy though, but...
[02:13] <idefixx> digip1mp: do you want to use it just for yourselfe?
[02:13] <n3gr40__1> Cade os caras do brasil
[02:13] <IndyGunFreak> Jack_Sparrow: you don't see on that page where it tells you how to add seveas's repo?
[02:13] <Jack_Sparrow> IndyGunFreak: I got that.. but it says to use synaptic and add the seveas repos, but does not tell you how
[02:14] <digip1mp> idefixx: no that's the problem.  the static binaries available are not oidentd-capable, so they suck for multi-user
[02:14] <IndyGunFreak> Jack_Sparrow: it says nothing about using synaptic
[02:14] <jasin> Please be respectful to the deaf and hard of hearing, we are humans too.
[02:14] <IndyGunFreak> how would someone know somebody was deaf in a chatroom?
[02:14] <digip1mp> idefixx: what version of glibc you using with sarge?
[02:15] <idefixx> digip1mp: well ok for a multiuser env. there is no real alternativ - i would have suggested to use irrsi-proxy for just yourselfe - but thats not possible.
[02:15] <Shaddox> Hello everyone. Why does GnomeBaker report [ http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25342/ ]  whenever I try and burn a DVD? I've burned CD's just fine, but not DVD's.
[02:15] <idefixx> digip1mp: let me check
[02:15] <Flannel> Cleric: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25349/  Paste that into the END of your menu.lst (after ### END DEBIAN AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST
[02:15] <Jack_Sparrow> IndyGunFreak: I beg to pardon, but right there in the middle of the screen is a sticky note to use synaptic..
[02:15] <Jordan_U> IndyGunFreak, I think he might have just been a troll, not sure though
[02:15] <digip1mp> idefixx: lol trust me i know.  closest alternative is ezbounce.
[02:15] <digip1mp> idefixx: but that means multiple irc client connections per user (one per network)
[02:16] <IndyGunFreak> Jordan_U: i suspect, considering he told me that telling someone how to use  w32 codecs was offtopic..lol
[02:16] <killaz> damn what is the matter with this cifs mounting....?? it doesnt give me the right ownership...
[02:16] <IndyGunFreak> Jack_Sparrow: then we're reading two different links
[02:16] <killaz> Anyoen of you used this succesfully?
[02:16] <Cleric> do i need to backup this config file or make a copy or anything?
[02:16] <Flannel> Cleric: the "map" things will switch around the HDs virtually, so windows (and your recovery thing) think theyre on the first HD.  Also, the second part is for the recovery thing.  Not sure if we boot to that, or if windows uses it internally, or what.  But, if you do boot to it, that's the entry for it
[02:16] <idefixx> digip1mp: i've tried them all... ezbounce sux nohing to configure etc.

[02:17] <Jordan_U> harry, No, but there is a .deb for it at getdeb.org
[02:17] <Cleric> done
[02:17] <Jack_Sparrow> IndyGunFreak: Yes that takes me to seveas site... but that is not what I asked..
[02:17] <zabi1> hey
[02:17] <killaz> dont tell me none of you are using CIFS?
[02:17] <SirBob1701> anyone here have an A8N32-SLI Deluxe and able to get both or at least on marvell yukon nic to work?
[02:17] <IndyGunFreak> Jack_Sparrow: sorry, i can't help you, as you're clearly not reading instructions
[02:17] <Hip-no> hello everyone
[02:17] <zabi1> how do i change the permissions on an external hard drive so that i can write to it
[02:17] <zabi1> Its currently readonly
[02:17] <Jack_Sparrow> You clearly are not reading my question
[02:18] <Jordan_U> zabi1, NTFS?
[02:18] <killaz> this is ridicolous....
[02:18] <IndyGunFreak> Jack_Sparrow: you're trying to play dvd's,correct?
[02:18] <digip1mp> idefixx: how do I tell what version of glibc I have installed on ubuntu?
[02:18] <zabi1> Jordan_U:yes
[02:18] <Jordan_U> !ntfs-3g | zabi1
[02:18] <ubotu> zabi1: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[02:18] <Flannel> Cleric: Now, if it doesn't boot windows, you'll need to change the part where it says "root" for the windows things, to "rootnoverify", sometimes that's needed (I dont know why)
[02:18] <Jack_Sparrow> IndyGunFreak: I am trying to add seveas repos to my synaptic repo list
[02:18] <Hip-no> is there someone here who might help me run a few simple things to install VMware tools on my mac, where I'm running Ubuntu Feisty with VMware Fusion?

[02:18] <[Neurotic] > anyone got any idea on when Intell Wireless 4965AGN support will be officially released?
[02:18] <IndyGunFreak> why don't you read throught hat second link AGAIN
[02:19] <Cleric> so what shall i do reboot and see what happens?
[02:19] <ladyofthenight^^> Is it possible to switch back to 32bit ubuntu from amd64 version -- and keep all my settings, configuration files????
[02:19] <IndyGunFreak> Jack_Sparrow: pay special attention to where it tells you to edit your sources.list
[02:19] <idefixx> digip1mp: 2.5
[02:19] <Flannel> Cleric: yeah, rebooting... Oh.  Do you currently see a grub menu? (menu with a few kernel entries in it?)
[02:19] <Frogzoo> ladyofthenight^^: backup /etc/ & /home - & /var for databases/www
[02:19] <Finity> Guys, I'm having a /huge/ problem
[02:19] <Jordan_U> Hip-no, Sure, make sure that you don't still have the Ubuntu iso set as the virtual CD rom or nothing will come up when you go to install vmware-tools ( vmware gets confused with 2 cdroms )
[02:20] <Flannel> Cleric: Oh.  And, by the way, if you had left your windows HDD in during the install, they wouldve been added to your list during the install.  Since you took them out, they werent
[02:20] <SirBob1701> how do i update the kernel without a network connection?
[02:20] <harry> Jordan_U: how do I compile from source?
[02:20] <Flannel> SirBob1701: sneakernet
[02:20] <IndyGunFreak> Hip-no: just double click it and hit extractit it into whatever tempdirectory you want
[02:20] <Finity> I'm getting Error 17 when I turn on my computer (Grub Error 17).  Apparently that means grub doesn't recognize one of the partitions filesystems... what would cause this, and how do I fix this?
[02:20] <ladyofthenight^^> Frogzoo: and then what? copy them back after the install of 32bt
[02:20] <Jordan_U> !source | harry

[02:21] <Cleric> i know but its my first time i was extra cautious plus some panicky joe bloggs recommended it. GRUB - no i think i get an option to see it if i press ESC? and if i understand correctly i think its just invisible....

[02:21] <Flannel> SirBob1701: packages.ubuntu.com is one place.  Also, you might check out "apt on cd", which greatly helps for sneakernetting (helps do dependencies and stuff)
[02:21] <Frogzoo> ladyofthenight^^: I wouldn't just copy /etc over the top, I'd put them in place case by case
[02:21] <starter2> hi
[02:21] <starter2> how do i get glib and glibc?
[02:22] <killaz> !DiskMounter
[02:22] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse
[02:22] <idefixx> digip1mp: package name is libc6.. and there is a 'pkg-config --modversion ...' gimme a sec doesnt work like i thought it would :)
[02:22] <starter2> how do i get glib and glibc in ubuntu?
[02:22] <Flannel> Cleric: right.  And you can comment out a line (by adding #) in your menu.lst if you don't want to have to push escape each time (comment out the "hiddenmenu" line)
[02:22] <Shaddox> Hi everyone. Why does my GnomeBaker report input/output errors every time I try to write a DVD from an ISO image?
[02:22] <Finity> Apparently I need to edit menu.lst or something, where is that?
[02:22] <Frogzoo> starter2: if you haven't got glibc, your pc won't boot
[02:22] <Flannel> Finity: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:22] <starter2> what about glib?
[02:22] <digip1mp> apt-cache search glibc ----> aptitude show libc6 (tells me) Provides: glibc-2.3.5-3, glibc-2.3.6-2

[02:24] <plurstar> yup!

[02:27] <Hip-no> IndyGunFreak, when I put the VMwareTools.tar.gz file into a folder I call 'temp; and then try to unpack with the command: tar -zxfv ,  I get a 'no such file or directory' message in the terminal

[02:27] <huzz> Reading package lists... Done
[02:27] <Jordan_U> Mr_Awesome, Use update-manager, just change your mirror in System -> administration -> Software Sources first
[02:27] <huzz> after that ^
[02:28] <Mr_Awesome> Jordan_U: ok, thanks
[02:28] <IndyGunFreak> Hip-no: not really, sorry.....  isn't vmware in the repositories?
[02:28] <idefixx> digip1mp: do a 'sudo /lib/libc.so.6'
[02:28] <jrib> !paste > huzz (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:28] <huzz> i'll remember that the next time
[02:28] <digip1mp> idefixx: what will that do
[02:28] <plurstar> Jordan, I didn hear anything from both, although the second command said that I had a busy resource
[02:28] <Hip-no> IndyGurnFreak I don't know if it's in the repositories! :)
[02:29] <idefixx> digip1mp: show info about your glibc
[02:29] <IndyGunFreak> Hip-no: well, its in mine.
[02:29] <Hip-no> IndyGunFreak, I meant
[02:29] <huzz> what do i do to fix this :/
[02:29] <Cleric> flannel: it looked like it worked. i saw the grub menu for a split second and windows was on there. what I need to do now is to have it display the list for longer and also to change the order of the list
[02:29] <Hip-no> IndyGunFreak if it's in the repositories, how do I install?
[02:29] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[02:29] <Jordan_U> Hip-no, I can walk you through it
[02:29] <Hip-no> Jordan_U thanks... please!  I'd much appreciate it
[02:30] <h1st0> GO CAVS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[02:30] <h1st0> l8tr peeps
[02:30] <IndyGunFreak> just sudo apt-get install vmware-player should do it.
[02:30] <Jordan_U> !ops

[02:30] <digip1mp> idefixx: neat - GNU C Library development release version 2.4
[02:30] <Burgundavia_> Jordan_U: you rang?
[02:30] <Jordan_U> Burgundavia_, h1st0
[02:30] <Flannel> Cleric: You cant change the order of the list (well, you can, but for our purposes you can't).  To make it display longer, you change the "timeout" setting.  If you'd like, you can make windows the default (even though it's not on top)
[02:30] <gnomefreak> got it
[02:31] <Burgundavia_> gnomefreak: spoiling all my fun :)
[02:31] <huzz> could someone please tell me how i can remove java .....
[02:31] <idefixx> digip1mp: duh.. i somehow thought u said feisty but i just see u said edgy :).. that explains it.
[02:31] <IndyGunFreak> of all the places tocome and scream go cavs, he goes to a linux forum..lol
[02:31] <harry> "You must have the GTK+ 2.0 development headers installed to compile Pidgin." Where do I get these?
[02:31] <Jordan_U> Hip-no, Double click the tar.gz file and it choose to extract it to your desktop
[02:31] <Flannel> huzz: Do you still get the error?
[02:31] <IndyGunFreak> Jack_Sparrow: are you figuring it out now?
[02:31] <huzz> Flannel, yup
[02:31] <Cleric> ok sorted the timeout, what do you mean you can change the list order but not for our purposes?
[02:31] <plurstar> Jordan, Oh I forgot to mention that I am using fiesty.
[02:32] <huzz> dpkg: parse error, in file `/var/lib/dpkg/available' near line 2 package `java-common': <
[02:32] <digip1mp> idefixx: I wish I knew how to statically compile psy.  I'd install vmware and an old version of debian and make a statically-linked binary.
[02:32] <huzz> keep getting this
[02:32] <huzz> Flannel ^
[02:32] <SpeakerMania> Is there anyway I can scan the Windows boot section of the windows drive for viruses?
[02:32] <SirBob1701> how do i check my kernel version?
[02:32] <Flannel> Cleric: It is possible (with GRUB) to change the list order, but the way it currently works (with it updating kernels and stuff) makes it impossible to put windows above linux
[02:32] <nox-Hand> What package has the wma codec?
[02:32] <jrib> harry: just do 'sudo apt-get build-dep gaim'
[02:32] <Flannel> SirBob1701: uname -a
[02:32] <jrib> !compile > harry (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:32] <idefixx> digip1mp: well in any case if you really have to install psybnc you can download an old version of the glibc compile it and install it to some local folder... after that point the makfile to these libarys and it should work.
[02:32] <IndyGunFreak> SirBob1701: open a terminal and type uname -r
[02:32] <IndyGunFreak> i believe
[02:33] <SirBob1701> thanks guys
[02:33] <huzz> Flannel, any ideas ..
[02:33] <digip1mp> idefixx: romg please walk me through this....
[02:33] <Cleric> flannel: ok we'll get to that later. how do we make it default to windows?
[02:33] <Flannel> huzz: alright, we'll have to add the GPG key for the security repos, although I don't see how that affects java at all.
[02:33] <[Neurotic] > I'm trying to make and inatall the latest iwlwifi driver from http://www.intellinuxwireless.org/, and when I run make I get the error Kernel Makefile not found at '/lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/source' - what do I need to do?
[02:34] <SpeakerMania> Does anyone know if Banshee is any good?
[02:34] <huzz> Flannel, how do i do that ?

[02:34] <SpeakerMania> jrib, I am. :) I'm downloading it right now.
[02:34] <Hip-no> Jordan_U I have extracted VMware to the desktop
[02:34] <digip1mp> idefixx: if you have time and are available to help me do this, please /q me
[02:34] <inctrl> just installed feisty fawn and cant get nautilus to launch any ideas
[02:34] <zabi1> But for some reason my windows drive wont let me display everything that is in it.
[02:34] <Jordan_U> Hip-no, Once you have the folder "vmware-tools" on your desktop open a terminal and run: sudo Desktop/vmware-tools/vmware-install.pl
[02:34] <Flannel> huzz: do that to regenerate simply the security.ubuntu.com repository, it'll tell you the GPG key, and also how to add it.
[02:34] <jrib> SpeakerMania: through APT right?  I think it's ok, but your taste may be different than mine :)
[02:34] <maeth> is there an easy way to install the ad2pd service for bluetooth stereo??
[02:34] <idefixx> digip1mp: wow.. i just unpacked psybnc it doesnt even use automake :) and honestly its nothing you can talk someone through .. that a lot of work :/
[02:34] <nox-Hand> Anyone know what package that windows media audio codec is in?
[02:34] <zabi1> And my external hard drive is only being read only
[02:34] <Hip-no> Jordan_U OK, I'll dot hat
[02:35] <huzz> ok
[02:35] <jrib> !restricted > nox-Hand (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:35] <Barbelos> does anyone here have a good idea about how to change /boot/grub/device.map? I have to open the command console on grub to run a map command, should it be enough to change the order of disks in device.map?
[02:35] <CarlF1> how do I get my laptop's ATI radon to use the vga port?
[02:36] <SirBob1701> i'm having really annoying problems with my network
[02:36] <Dev0205> Looking for a nice File-Sharing program. Any suggestions?
[02:36] <Flannel> Cleric: Change the "default" number to the windows one.  However a more robust method is to set default to "saved" (`default saved`) and then add `savedefault` on the line after the end of the windows one (directly after), and then that'll become your 'default' option
[02:36] <SirBob1701> very very bad may make me go back to xp on my desktop
[02:36] <avalon> I just updated my time, now all I can get is the error sudo: timestamp too far in the future: Jun 13 00:24:48 2007. HELP Please :)
[02:36] <Arrick> how do i boot to the liveCD with the 7.04 disc?
[02:36] <Flannel> avalon: `sudo -K`
[02:36] <digip1mp> idefixx: crap.
[02:36] <Flannel> Arrick: Do you have the desktop CD?
[02:36] <Arrick> yes Flannel
[02:36] <avalon> Same error Flannel
[02:37] <Flannel> Arrick: then just boot it.
[02:37] <Arrick> ok
[02:37] <Hip-no> Jordan_U  I tried running the vmware-install and I got this:  sudo Desktop/vmware-tools/vmware-install.pl
[02:37] <Hip-no> sudo: Desktop/vmware-tools/vmware-install.pl: command not found
[02:37] <Dev0205> Arrick - Usually just putting it in the CD drive and rebooting the system works. You may have to go into BIOS and set up the Boot Bath.
[02:37] <Flannel> avalon: `sudo -K` shouldn't give you an error at all. (this is just sudo -K, not sudo -K [command] )
[02:37] <zabi1> Hip-no its perl then that command
[02:37] <Arrick> is that a DVD?
[02:37] <Hip-no> Jordan_U but I did run the command that IndyGunFreak suggested, which is for VMware player

[02:38] <Hip-no> zabil I'll try that
[02:38] <idefixx> digip1mp: well i justed looked throught the makefile try 'set CFLAGS=-static' and build it after that (on the old debian)
[02:38] <IndyGunFreak> Hip-no: did it work?
[02:38] <Jordan_U> Hip-no, Sorry, I got the name of the folder wrong run: sudo Desktop/vmware-tools-distrib/vmware-install.pl
[02:38] <Cleric> flannel: is it ok if i put it directly after 'chainloader +1' ?
[02:38] <Hip-no> Jordan_U do I type 'perl' first?
[02:38] <avalon> Flannel: Here's what I see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25355/
[02:38] <Flannel> Cleric: yeah, directly after that line

[02:38] <Jordan_U> Hip-no, No, it should just run
[02:38] <Hip-no> IndyGunFreak yes, that worked... is vmplayer the same as vmtools?

[02:39] <Fable> hi guys
[02:39] <Fable> how are you
[02:39] <Arrick> Flannel what are these flashing white squares on my monitor?
[02:39] <Flannel> huzz: that's not a command, it's a line for your menu.lst
[02:39] <zabi1> how do i change the permissions on my external hard drive so that i can write to it?
[02:39] <Cleric> ok rebooting, will get back to you
[02:39] <jrib> zabi1: what filesystem?
[02:39] <zabi1> jrib: how can i check?
[02:39] <IndyGunFreak> Hip-no: im not sure to be truthful...., i just see about 20 entries of vmware in my list.
[02:39] <Flannel> avalon: are you dualbooting with windows?
[02:39] <huzz> Flannel, i am done with the gpg commands, now what?
[02:39] <jrib> zabi1: gparted
[02:39] <zabi1> jrib: nvm its ntfs
[02:39] <Fable> can anyone help me with some beryl stuff please
[02:40] <Flannel> huzz: update again. (sudo apt-get update)

[02:40] <ubotu> Fable: 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?
[02:40] <will2> test
[02:40] <Hip-no> it's running now Jordan_U
[02:40] <idefixx> digip1mp: also psybnc compiles options into its binary... afaik. that'll make it pretty hard to maintain on another system.
[02:40] <jrib> Fable: you can get help with beryl in #ubuntu-effects
[02:40] <Fable> oh ok
[02:40] <Jordan_U> Hip-no, Ok, I think you can just choose the default for all of the questions
[02:40] <Fable> my beryl is not working
[02:40] <sirbooboo> I cannot find a copy of 7.04 Alternate that will pass the cd-test
[02:41] <Fable> the graphics dont change
[02:41] <Flannel> avalon: Odd.  Well, sudo -K should have killed the timestamp entirely.  I hate to say it, but rebooting will fix it, or waiting until that timestamp passes will work too (or at least gets closer)
[02:41] <Flannel> sirbooboo: What speed are you burning at?  did you check the md5 of your iso?
[02:41] <avalon> LOL, alright Flannel Thanks :)
[02:42] <Arrick> Flannel does the liveCD have ssh on it?
[02:42] <Fable> and it just stays on KDE
[02:42] <Phrozen_One> hey everyone, can someone explain why Ubuntu Server 7.04 hangs before console login?
[02:42] <cables> You can install anything on the LiveCD
[02:42] <Flannel> Arrick: ssh client, yes.
[02:42] <Arrick> hrmm
[02:42] <huzz> Flannel, same thing again ->  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25356/
[02:42] <antiroach> avalon if you set the date back to what it was can you sudo correctly?
[02:42] <cables> As long as you have enough RAM or an existing swap partition
[02:42] <SirBob1701> hows support in feisty for nforce4 chipset
[02:42] <SpeakerMania> can someone help me mount my NTFS hard drive? I rebooted and it didn't mount.
[02:42] <SirBob1701> ?
[02:42] <Arrick> I wanted the server ;'(
[02:42] <merrnt> I'm trying to set up my M$ Intellimouse explorer, and somehow I have my mouse wheel making it go back and forward in firefox, instead of my side buttons. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong, can anyone look over my imwheel file or something to give me a clue?
[02:42] <zabi1> Jordan_U that didnt work for me idk why
[02:42] <digip1mp> idefixx: hrm any other ideas?
[02:42] <Flannel> Arrick: You'll need to install it then (sudo apt-get install openssh-server)
[02:43] <Cleric> flannel: i got my grub list displaying for longer, but default came back into ubuntu? :S

[02:43] <merrnt> Frogzoom I'm looking at the guide and I still can' get it working
[02:43] <idefixx> digip1mp: nothing that doesnt require major work.. sry. but there still might be an easy option i cant think of right now.
[02:43] <zabi1> Jordan_U nope i just installed it and did what it said to do and it didnt work.
[02:43] <Dev0205> Looking for a good File-Sharing program. Any suggestions?
[02:43] <IndyGunFreak> inctrl: you can't get nautilus to run?... open a terminal, and type nautilus, then hit enter
[02:44] <IndyGunFreak> inctrl: see if it spits out an error message
[02:44] <Cleric> flannel: oh right ok and from then on itll always be WinXP whether or not I choose anything else?
[02:44] <idefixx> digip1mp: psybnc doesnt have that much code... and probably there is a newer makefile somewhere on the net or something.
[02:44] <SpeakerMania> Jordan_U, were you around when I was getting help mounting my NTFS drive?
[02:44] <Jordan_U> zabi1, Can you pastebin the output of "mount" ?
[02:44] <visualdeception> Dev0205: frostwire
[02:44] <Phrozen_One> can someone explain why Ubuntu Server 7.04 hangs before console login?
[02:44] <Flannel> Cleric: no, XP will be the default (if you wait for the timeout to reach zero)

[02:49] <blah569_> You can run Mac/Windows on Linux.
[02:49] <Flannel> merrnt: If you want, yeah, "complete removal" through synaptic, or with --purge through apt-get

[02:50] <Flannel> huzz: alright.  Well, that's just a warning anyway (and I believe its a server error), and that wouldn't have anything to do with java anyway (java isn't in that repository).  `sudo apt-get update` should have overwritten that file you have the error with, that's he only oddity
[02:51] <Hip-no> IndyGunFreak Thanks for your help, too!

[03:28] <Pelo> AznDinner2,  I don'T take private msg  please talk to me in this channel
[03:28] <NeoGeo64> Pelo, the videos aren't embedded into the webpage, its a link you click which opens WMP and streams the video.
[03:28] <AznDinner2> okay Pelo okay i just tried 7.04 liveCD and it boots
[03:28] <Jordan_U> SpeakerMania, I honestly don't know, that will probably happen automatically again when you reboot though since the log has been fixed
[03:28] <NeoGeo64> Only, I don't have WMP now since I'm on Linux so I am trying to figure out how to get it to work.
[03:29] <AznDinner2> so only 7.04 works on my laptop
[03:29] <ihateusernames> anyone else have Java issues?
[03:29] <AznDinner2> but its the 64 bit one
[03:29] <SpeakerMania> ok
[03:29] <Pelo> Windows Media Player does not exist on linux,  install mplater-mozilla,  then when the windows opens, right click , copy the link and use it in mplayer stand alone
[03:29] <SunmanXII> IndyGunFreak: ook its not there, but i did everything on the website
[03:29] <IndyGunFreak> SunmanXII: i belive you... did libdvdcss2 pop up in your search?
[03:29] <Pelo> AznDinner2, check your laptop model in the forum, maybe there is a known issue
[03:30] <crdlb> InsaneJuggalo_, and on the client computer, check detect network printers
[03:30] <crdlb> in the printers window
[03:30] <Jordan_U> SunmanXII, Are you trying to get DVDs to play?
[03:30] <NeoGeo64> I already have the MPLayer plugin
[03:30] <brk3> hi, im getting a very slow grahical login, the forums seem to say deleting ~/.gnomerc fixes the problem but I dont seem to have this file..?
[03:30] <Pelo> NeoGeo64,  then follow the rest of the instcutions
[03:30] <SunmanXII> IndyGunFreak: ahh sorry looked in the wrong place - yes its there and its inscalled
[03:30] <IndyGunFreak> Jordan_U: he says he followed this link, but it still doesn't workhttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu#head-57a5050d451985de1b87ea87a3ccc1a4895e57d3
[03:31] <SunmanXII> IndyGunFreak: maybe ill try anotehr DVD
[03:31] <IndyGunFreak> SunmanXII: what application are you using?
[03:31] <NeoGeo64> Ah, there's no direct link to the video.  The link on the webpage looks like this: javascript:playVideo('1507298', 'Worth%20County%20gets%20a%20dose%20of%20rough%20weather', 'v', 'News', '108000', 'News', '', '');
[03:31] <Jordan_U> SunmanXII, Install VLC and use that
[03:31] <qual> what in the dong
[03:31] <IndyGunFreak> thats what i was gonna suggest.
[03:31] <qual> this pos dell wont boot to ubuntu live cd
[03:31] <Pelo> NeoGeo64, when you click the link does it open an extra window ?
[03:32] <qual> gives some xorg error
[03:32] <NeoGeo64> It opens a window saying I have an outdated version of WMP lol
[03:32] <IndyGunFreak> qual: well, try the alternate install CD.
[03:32] <Pelo> qual, what video card ?
[03:32] <IndyGunFreak> thats why its there.
[03:32] <brk3> should i delete the .gnome2 folder?
[03:32] <qual> alternate install cd?
[03:32] <qual> Pelo, it said some ati
[03:32] <IndyGunFreak> !alternate
[03:32] <ubotu> 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
[03:32] <qual> radeon x300 or some business
[03:32] <NeoGeo64> But, on Windows XP with FIrefox I get that same window but WMP will also pop up and play the video however.
[03:32] <emet> hey what is the codec package
[03:32] <IndyGunFreak> lol "or some buisness"
[03:32] <emet> !codec
[03:32] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[03:33] <emet> !codecs
[03:33] <Pelo> qual,  ati card are not supported for the live cd , you need to use the alternate install cd , it is text based
[03:33] <SunmanXII> Jordan_U: thanks ill try that
[03:33] <IndyGunFreak> SunmanXII: sudo apt-get install vlc
[03:33] <qual> i'm not trying to install.. i'm just trying to boot to something (since windows is borked) to backup some things
[03:33] <Pelo> NeoGeo64,  do you know what wmp stands for ?
[03:33] <qual> hmm
[03:33] <qual> maybe i'll try knoppix then
[03:33] <NeoGeo64> windows media player
[03:33] <IndyGunFreak> qual: probably a good idea.
[03:33] <NeoGeo64> Pelo, do you know what WTC stands for?
[03:34] <NeoGeo64> It stands for.. What Trade Center? lol
[03:34] <Pelo> NeoGeo64,  and this is ubuntu which is linux ,  so you don'T have in in ubuntu and you need something else to play the file,  either mplayer or vlc
[03:34] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[03:34] <Jack_Sparrow> !dvd
[03:34] <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
[03:34] <Pelo> NeoGeo64, please check your attitude at the door
[03:34] <ihateusernames> can i get some help please =)
[03:34] <IndyGunFreak> Jack_Sparrow: are you still having trouble?
[03:34] <NeoGeo64> When I try and open files with mplayer I get an error saying it could not init the video dev.
[03:34] <Jack_Sparrow> I think I got it working thanks
[03:34] <Pelo> ihateusernames, what with
[03:35] <IndyGunFreak> ok
[03:35] <_kartmman> m...
[03:35] <NeoGeo64> so im using totem.. for now
[03:35] <ihateusernames> openoffice and java
[03:35] <n2diy_> ! install
[03:35] <ubotu> 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
[03:35] <ihateusernames> it says that java is not installed when it is
[03:35] <Jordan_U> ihateusernames, Can you be more specific?
[03:35] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[03:35] <Pelo> ihateusernames, install the java plugin package
[03:35] <ihateusernames> i did, its all installed
[03:35] <Jordan_U> ihateusernames, What version of Java do you have installed?
[03:35] <emet> !info ubuntu-restricted-extras
[03:35] <ubotu> ubuntu-restricted-extras: Commonly used restricted packages. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 2.2 (feisty), package size 1 kB, installed size 32 kB
[03:35] <ihateusernames> 1.6
[03:35] <Taz> Is there any linux utility to put a quick screen resolution change on the panel?
[03:35] <aanderse> does anyone know why the qemu kernel module(precompiled) isnt in the ubuntu repositories?
[03:36] <Pelo> Taz,  check in the pannel apps
[03:36] <Jordan_U> ihateusernames, I think that OpenOffice might only work with the open source Java
[03:36] <Tru7h> What is the default root password when using the Fiesty LiveCD?
[03:36] <Jordan_U> Tru7h, There is none, use sudo
[03:36] <Jack_Sparrow> IndyGunFreak: It says totem is installed but I dont see it in my applications list..
[03:36] <Tru7h> Jordan_U: Okay, thanks
[03:37] <SunmanXII> Jordan_U : installed VLC everything works thanks a lot!
[03:37] <Jordan_U> Tru7h, np
[03:37] <Jordan_U> SunmanXII, np
[03:37] <IndyGunFreak> Jack_Sparrow: well, then itsp robably not installed...lol, open a terminal, and either sudo apt-get install totem  or, if you want to use vlc(a better player  imo), type sudo apt-get install vlc
[03:37] <qual> yea weird.. knoppix 3.3 is booting with no problems
[03:37] <ihateusernames> where can i get the open source java from
[03:37] <qual> that exists?
[03:37] <Taz> Pelo: I don't see anything regarding screen res??
[03:37] <Jordan_U> qual, ATI hates Linux in general, not just Ubuntu :)
[03:38] <qual> Jordan_U, or vise versa
[03:38] <IndyGunFreak> ati is the devil.
[03:38] <qual> which i completely understand
[03:38] <IndyGunFreak> qual: ?.. vice versa?
[03:38] <Pelo> Taz,  in synaptic,  search for gnome pannel and see if extra stuff comes up
[03:38] <qual> ati = shite
[03:38] <qual> if i was linux i wouldnt support it either
[03:38] <IndyGunFreak> qual: linux won't support it because the drivers are closed, hasnothing to do with linux not liking ATI
[03:38] <kishan> hi how to install scripts/plugin in xchat
[03:38] <qual> yea
[03:38] <Pelo> qual,   ati is the problem they won't give permission for open source drivers
[03:38] <qual> and ati doesnt write linux drivers
[03:39] <qual> nvidia doesnt either do they?
[03:39] <qual> they just write their own
[03:39] <IndyGunFreak> qual: nvidia does,
[03:39] <qual> if they have open source drivers, they're "giving away secrets"
[03:39] <valehru> where can I get the i386 lesstif2 deb package....need it for x64 system
[03:39] <Jordan_U> qual, No, it's definitely ATI screwing Linux users while Linux devs do the best with what they have ( no documentation, crappy proprietary drivers ... )
[03:39] <Taz> I tried ATI for 2 cards.. fool me once shame on ATI.. fool me twice....
[03:40] <qual> i did once
[03:40] <Pelo> qual,  not realy,  they charge for  hardware , not drivers
[03:40] <IndyGunFreak> Taz: i learned after the first one...
[03:40] <qual> first gen radeon 64mb
[03:40] <qual> was worse than my geforce 32mb
[03:40] <qual> never again
[03:40] <freeagy> qual you read this http://lwn.net/Articles/237920/
[03:40] <qual> Pelo, yes but opening things could possibly give the competitor their secrets
[03:40] <qual> is what i understood
[03:41] <attickid> ey when using ubuntu on a amd 64  x2 5000+ is recommended to use 64bit version or x86 version?
[03:41] <IndyGunFreak> inctrl: did you just vanish or what?
[03:41] <FluxTendu> how to transform a .idx .rar subtitle to a .srt ?
[03:41] <Pelo> qual,  the competitors have all the resources they need to retro engineer  the cards,  they don't need opensource info to steal anything
[03:41] <qual> freeagy, what is this for ?
[03:41] <Jordan_U> attickid, x86 is easier when it comes to proprietary things like codecs
[03:42] <qual> Pelo, i'm just reciting what i read about why the reason is they dont have open source drivers
[03:42] <qual> unless i'm mistaken, nvidia doesnt have them, they write drivers for linux, but theyre not open source
[03:42] <sasa> Hi
[03:42] <cables> they're not foss, and they're not great, but they're better than fglrx
[03:42] <qual> which might be why things such as the black window bug havent been fixed yet.
[03:42] <Jordan_U> qual, That is correct, but intel does
[03:42] <attickid> Jordan_U: 64 or x86 it is only usefull when the amount of ram is higher than 2Gb right?
[03:42] <qual> Jordan_U, yes
[03:42] <qual> my next comp will be intel
[03:42] <cables> Are there any intel chipsets that are nice and fast?
[03:43] <sasa> This is the first time I join and I would liek to know
[03:43] <qual> so i can have intel chipset, cpu, sound, video
[03:43] <qual> and it all works
[03:43] <inctrl> IGF: nope just finished w/ thunar
[03:43] <sasa> if I can install ubuntu on windows XP
[03:43] <cables> Aren't they coming out with a gfx chipset that's sort of on par with the other major ones?
[03:43] <Pici> I'm trying to copy a large file over the network, and I'm afraid if I lose my connection I'll have to restart. Is there a tool that will resume file transfers?
[03:43] <Jordan_U> qual, You should get one of the Dells with Ubuntu pre-installed
[03:43] <cables> sasa: Ubuntu is an operating system, not a program.
[03:43] <xenex> what's the command to display active internet connections?
[03:43] <inctrl> IGF: it is working great
[03:43] <HexCat> cables, yes, Larrabee
[03:43] <qual> Jordan_U, i dont think i'll be getting a dell
[03:43] <mshade> http://digg.com/linux_unix/Dell_restores_CompleteCare_option_on_Ubuntu_machines
[03:43] <qual> they screwed us at the office
[03:43] <madnewbie> @pici: wget
[03:43] <sasa> cables: yes
[03:44] <Pici> madnewbie: of course, I'll try that
[03:44] <cables> sasa: however there is an installer that will let you install Ubuntu with a Windows EXE. It's called Wubi (google it)
[03:44] <sasa> I would like to have on my laptop both OS
[03:44] <kishan> sasa, u can install ubuntu with xp its called dual boot
[03:44] <inctrl> IGF: only question, isn't nautilus integrated w/ gnome and desktop?
[03:44] <TheVault> I have a problem, I'm not sure if I'm doing this right. I turned most of my Desktop into Mac OS X alike. Well, I want the orange logo in the upper left to be changed to an apple. I don't know where I should put it to replace the orange icon so I can have the blue apple logo. What do I do?
[03:44] <arpegius> is there an *easy* way to set up wpa authenticated wireless through the command line?
[03:44] <cables> sasa: the regular ubuntu installer will automatically let you do a dual boot (which allows you to choose either ubuntu or windows when you start up)
[03:44] <Taz> Pelo: didn't find any panel for screen res in synaptic.. any other ideas?
[03:44] <cables> but wubi lets you install it from windows, and is less likely to mess up your windows.
[03:44] <Tru7h> !jeve
[03:44] <xenex> what's the command to display active internet connections?
[03:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about jeve - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:44] <sasa> kisham and cables: what to choose
[03:44] <Tru7h> !java
[03:44] <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
[03:45] <Pelo> TheVault,  gconf-editor   apps/pannel/main menu  ( somewhere like that)
[03:45] <sasa> cables: are u saying that when I turn my machines I get to choose between both OS
[03:45] <Pelo> Taz,  right a script  , make a launcher, put it in the pannel
[03:45] <inctrl> i.e. "places" is not working from the taskbar
[03:45] <cables> sasa: try the LiveCD to test it out, if that works for you than install using Wubi or using the LiveCD. Wubi installs are easier to uninstall, but normal installs are more configurable (you can choose the default OS, for instance)
[03:45] <Pelo> rigth / write
[03:45] <inctrl> and no desktop icons
[03:45] <TheVault> Pelo: I don't understand? Is that a location or something or what I type in the terminal?
[03:45] <cables> sasa: yes, you can choose between OS's.
[03:45] <kishan> sasa https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot?action=show&redirect=WindowsDualBootHowTo
[03:46] <inctrl> no menu when i right click on desktop
[03:46] <z436> hey there
[03:46] <cables> sasa: the Ubuntu LiveCD installer will easily create a dual-boot for you, but if you change your mind, it's harder to get rid of. That's the advantage of Wubi. So you might want to try Wubi first, then if you like it, install Ubuntu with the LiveCD install.
[03:46] <Pelo> TheVault,  type  gconf-editor in the terminal,  navigate to  /apps/pannel/mainmenu/  or somewherer like that,  there is a key for alternate icon
[03:46] <rogue780||> is there a way to see the last few commands executed by someone accessing the computer through ssh from the host system?
[03:46] <kishan> sasa,http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/p3.htm
[03:46] <kishan> check this out
[03:47] <TheVault> Pelo: Alright, lemme try that
[03:48] <IndyGunFreak> inctrl: did you get thunar working?
[03:48] <inctrl> yes
[03:48] <IndyGunFreak> ok, hang on a sec.
[03:48] <ejm> wow, I'm having a bit more hardware success with ubuntu than suse, but it's the same problem I'm plagued with on both.
[03:48] <ejm> which is the infamous broadcom wireless card.
[03:48] <j1tters> hey all. quick (hopefully) question. all the sudden my sound went out. fiesty with a soundblaster live car.d. card shows in hardware as fine.
[03:48] <j1tters> any ideas?
[03:49] <ejm> oh yeah. ubuntu 7.03
[03:49] <IndyGunFreak> inctrl: go to this site, and follow the instructions to change from nautilus to thunar... http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/nonautilusplease
[03:49] <TheVault> Pelo: I don't understand what Im suppose to do. Sorry but I'm a noob at this part of Ubuntu lol
[03:49] <Frozen_mango> What do I do? Giving full permissions to an app in the firewall isn't secure, on ther other hand making per IP / per direction / per port / per protocol rules would be madness, too many rules
[03:49] <IndyGunFreak> lol, 7.03?
[03:49] <Pelo> TheVault,  you got gconf-editor working ?
[03:49] <sasa> cables and kisham: thank you a lot. Just quick question, what do u mean by liveCD
[03:49] <IndyGunFreak> thats the problem, you're still in beta... :)
[03:49] <ejm> lol 7.03
[03:49] <ejm> i mean 4
[03:50] <inctrl> great, thanx!
[03:50] <TheVault> Pelo: Yeah, I typed it in the terminal and a window popped up
[03:50] <buntu> anyone have trouble installing lastest nv drivers? my linux image, and headers are 2.6.20-16.29, but my restricted modules package is 2.6.20-16.28.1- thats the latest, i get api mismatch error, what gives?
[03:50] <cables> sasa: you put it in your computer, and it'll boot Ubuntu up from the CD without writing from the disk.
[03:50] <Pelo> TheVault,  ok see onthe left where you have  > apps , > desktop , > GNOME, > schmea , etc ?
[03:50] <cables> buntu: do this command: sudo aptitude install linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`
[03:50] <j1tters> ok nm. it apparently reverted back to onboard sound. but lord knows why. if anyone would happen to know great . if not. no worries.
[03:50] <TheVault> Pelo: Yeah, I see all that
[03:51] <kishan> Livecd helps u to install as well run the operation system with out installing u can just it in to cd room boot the system and u can try how it works for you wheter sound is good wheter the network is good i mean the internet check those first before u install
[03:51] <Tom_Kun> heh, I have a challange for anyone who feels up to it :p
[03:51] <cables> sasa: so you can test it out and stuff, complete with all the apps. It's slow, since it's running off the CD, but it gives you a good idea of how to use it and whether it'll work with your hardware.
[03:51] <MacDrunk> so
[03:51] <cables> sasa: then you can click the install button on the LiveCD to install it, or use Wubi.
[03:51] <IndyGunFreak> Tom_Kun: we're always up for it, just ask.
[03:51] <MacDrunk> shoot tom
[03:51] <Pelo> TheVault, click the arrow next to apps,  then find , pannel ,  then find default setup
[03:51] <ejm> I've tried ndiswrapper, which worked before with suse 10.2.
[03:51] <sasa> cables: seems wubi is nifty
[03:52] <buntu> cables, its newest version
[03:52] <TheVault> alright
[03:52] <Tom_Kun> IndyGunFreak: I have an atmel based CNUSB-611 wlan card (cnet 611) which is supposed to work with the atmel driver :)
[03:52] <Tom_Kun> IndyGunFreak: it doesnt :)
[03:52] <nahema> enybudy know's how to install a webcam HERCULES ?
[03:52] <ejm> There is one thing I tried though--I installed sabayon linux for a few hours, and my cpu heated up to 74 degrees.
[03:52] <nahema> i can't find nothing on net
[03:52] <cables> sasa: it's still beta, but it worked for my friend. However, it didn't work right for me... I'd try it first, then try the regular LiveCD install.
[03:52] <cables> sasa: and it's not as configurable as a regular Ubuntu install.
[03:52] <kishan> sasa , dowload and try out live cd first
[03:52] <TheVault> Pelo: Alright I found that. Then what?
[03:52] <sasa> cables: what is the advantage of installing with wubi compared to just dualboot
[03:52] <AznDinner> hey
[03:52] <cables> sasa: both are a type of dual boot.
[03:53] <Pelo> TheVault,    /apps/panel/default_setup/objects/menu_bar ,   you want to add a path to custom icon and check the use custom icon box
[03:53] <cables> sasa: the Wubi dual-boot uses the existing Windows bootloader and installs Ubuntu to a file on your Windows drive partition. It lets you remove it through Add/Remove in Windows.
[03:53] <Tom_Kun> IndyGunFreak: the reason is that the manufacturer id and the device id seems to be different than the default ones.
[03:53] <kishan> sasa, better to install from live cd that wubi as it is in still beta version if u have nothung to losse i mean data then try wubi
[03:53] <cables> kishan: so wrong.
[03:53] <AznDinner> Can any1 care to help me I cannot install any other version on my laptop except 7.04 64bit and i want to install 6.06/6.10 32 bit on my laptop but every time i try to use the DVD my computer restarts after it says Starting Caldera
[03:53] <IndyGunFreak> Tom_Kun: wel, i guessthat would be a problem
[03:53] <AznDinner> How do i fix it?
[03:54] <cables> kishan: wubi is in beta, but it's actually less likely to lose data than the livecd install
[03:54] <gamersgambit> I have my system's audio output going to a 5.1 system that if the same signal is on left and right, it removes it from the left and right and routes it to the center.  Is there a way I can have it throw left and right out of phase so it plays in both?  [the speakers are far enough away that it will not cause any issues
[03:54] <Tom_Kun> IndyGunFreak: vendor_id is reported as 0x1371 and product id is reported as 0x1
[03:54] <kishan> cable:i have seen people who were unable to boot at all
[03:54] <Almaron> Where exactly can I find the recovery mode? Which iso do I need for that?
[03:54] <Tom_Kun> IndyGunFreak: which renders the card useless as nothing is grabbing it as 'its own' :)
[03:54] <TheVault> Pelo: Ok I checked the "Use_Custom_Icon", so where do I put in the address for the image I'm wanting to use?
[03:54] <Pelo> TheVault, possibly also  in /apps/panel/objects/menu_bar_screen0
[03:54] <IndyGunFreak> Tom_Kun: you got me
[03:54] <cables> sasa: the regular install resizes your Windows partition and creates a new Ubuntu partition on your drive, removes the Windows bootloader, and replaces it with its own (which can start the Windows loader if you choose Windows when you boot)
[03:54] <Pelo> TheVault,  there is also a "custom icon" key in that same window
[03:55] <cables> kishan: and I've seen people who can't boot when using the LiveCD install.
[03:55] <Tom_Kun> IndyGunFreak: hehe, believe me I've tried for a while getting this thing working, so it's obviously not as simple as one might think
[03:55] <TheVault> Pelo: Yeah I see that. What do I do now that I clicked that box
[03:55] <IndyGunFreak> who knows.
[03:55] <LvcisPveR> hi
[03:55] <LvcisPveR> question
[03:55] <Pelo> TheVault, yes, dbl click on it

[03:55] <sasa> cables: Ok. Now for regular install, I have just burned the 7.04 version
[03:56] <LvcisPveR> how i make gdesklet to start when the system initiates
[03:56] <sasa> all what I need to do is just put it in the cd and run it on my laptop
[03:56] <cables> sasa: okay, so boot it with the CD in it.
[03:56] <AJ--> can any tell me how can i transfer a file from my windows network to /var/www  folder
[03:56] <TheVault> a box comes up but it won't let me choose any of the options, its dimmed

[03:56] <cables> sasa: yep. When you click Install once it loads, just go through and answer the questions.
[03:56] <AznDinner> can any1 tell me why i cant install anything on my computer except Ubuntu 7.04 64 bit?
[03:56] <valehru> !opera
[03:56] <ubotu> opera is an advanced and free (only as in price) web browser.  Install it via Applications->Add/Remove..., making sure that "Show commercial applications" (dapper only) is checked. For more info on opera please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser
[03:56] <cables> sasa: it'll ask you if you want to resize your existing drive, when it gets there drag the slider to the size you want for your old Windows partition
[03:57] <Pelo> AznDinner,  did you check in the forums ?
[03:57] <cables> sasa: if that option doesn't show up, come back here and we'll tell you how to do it manually.
[03:57] <AznDinner> i dont know what to search really >_<
[03:57] <borg7_> I have a 2 NIC LTSP setup I just installed dansguardian.  When I try to boot up a client it gets DHCP but it doesn't pull from TFTP. Any thoughts?
[03:57] <Pelo> AznDinner, try searchin for your laptop model and /or for   install cd restarts
[03:57] <AznDinner> kk
[03:57] <AJ--> can somebody tell me how can i transfer a file from a windows network to /var/www folder
[03:57] <sasa> cables kisham: Ok thanks a lot. Have a good night.
[03:58] <Pelo> AznDinner,  basicaly check for keywords for your problem
[03:58] <TheVault> Pelo: What do I do?
[03:58] <cables> AJ--: hit alt-f2, type "gksudo nautilus /var/www", and drag it over.
[03:58] <AznDinner> okay thats what im going
[03:58] <Pelo> TheVault, did you add the path ?
[03:58] <TheVault> It wont let me, its dimmed
[03:58] <LvcisPveR> how can i predetermine gdesklet to start when ubuntu stars
[03:58] <LvcisPveR> plz
[03:58] <cables> !startup | LvcisPveR

[03:59] <LvcisPveR> thanks a lot

[04:00] <nbbob> i have gnome running and just want the option to start xapps from the command line
[04:00] <AznDinner> Pelo neither searching my laptop or using the install cd restarts keywords work
[04:00] <valehru> is there anyway to force opera to use a websites fonts rather than the default ones specified in Opera?
[04:00] <AznDinner> i guess im the only one having this problem
[04:00] <Pelo> nbbob,   the terminal is in   menu > applications > accessories,   or you can get a run applet from alt-f2
[04:01] <arpegius> i think i hosed mysql just from messing around with it too much too quickly too sloppily. can i apt my system clean of all references to it?
[04:01] <Atman> my root pass works fine with sudo, but nothing works with su?!?!?

[04:01] <gday> Atman: su requires a root password
[04:02] <Atman> i swear i know my root password
[04:02] <gday> Atman: whereas sudo requires your own password
[04:02] <Atman> it works fine with sudo
[04:02] <AznDinner> and when i try to to it manuelly my computer says EMM386.exe is unstable or sumthing
[04:02] <Atman> hmm
[04:02] <AznDinner> how do i fix the Pelo?
[04:02] <Atman> whats the default root pass?

[04:02] <freeagy> why?
[04:03] <Pelo> AznDinner,  I have no idea,  emm386.exe sounds like a windows file,  this has nothing to do with ubuntu

[04:04] <gday> Atman: any luck?
[04:04] <freeagy> i'm looking
[04:04] <AznDinner> than the EMM386.exe crap appears
[04:04] <rollerskatejamms> How can I change the label of a partition
[04:04] <vbabiy> hey guys what can I do to speed up a 720p video on my computer
[04:05] <vbabiy> i have a dual cpu 2.8 intel xeon and it still runs slow
[04:05] <freeagy> thank you all!
[04:05] <Pelo> AznDinner,  I don'T know what caldera is either,  try this insteal,  go in the bios and change the boot device order put the cd rom in first
[04:05] <vbabiy> with movie player its just a little slow with MPlayer its dead slow
[04:05] <Atman> i was trying to run alsaconf and it opened in a terminal and begun by running su. since i couldn't auth, i couldn't run it. but i was only curious, about to install sound adapter for vmware
[04:05] <Atman> so i'd have to edit the source for aslaconf
[04:05] <Atman> yawn
[04:06] <void^> vbabiy: use an appropriate video out device. and don't run beryl/compiz.
[04:06] <gday> Atman: but did 'sudo su -' resolve your problem?
[04:06] <Manyfold> hello i have a problem , what does this error mean?
[04:06] <vbabiy> void^: which would be
[04:06] <Manyfold> E: Konnte Lock /var/lib/apt/lists/lock nicht bekommen - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[04:06] <Manyfold> E: Das Listenverzeichnis konnte nicht gesperrt werden.
[04:06] <Atman> i can't type that in, its a binary file that im executing
[04:06] <CTho__> on the Login Window Preferences, how do you actually log in remotely?  Is that just telnet/ssh, or VNC, or something else?
[04:06] <Atman> that starts off by running su
[04:06] <void^> vbabiy: xvideo (xv) should be fine.
[04:07] <gday> Atman: ah ok, I see
[04:07] <vbabiy> void^: thats  what i have and its slow
[04:07] <arpegius> how is it that i ran the command 'apt-get remove mysql-server' and it said nothing was installed so couldnt be removed, yet i still have tons of mysql* commands?
[04:07] <calc> caldera is an older company that bought dr dos (iirc) and had their own linux dist

[04:08] <void^> vbabiy: is it using some funny codec like wmv oder quicktime?
[04:08] <AznDinner> which install Pelo?
[04:08] <Pelo> AznDinner,  I don't take prvate messages, please tatlk to me in the channel
[04:08] <calc> ub12: you should ask more specific questions than that
[04:08] <vbabiy> void^: nope
[04:08] <vbabiy> its just avi
[04:09] <vbabiy> also what about the setting on the bottom
[04:09] <gday> Atman: if you really need it, you should be able to alter the root password using sudo
[04:09] <arpegius> ubuntu-home: most likely /usr
[04:09] <gday> Atman: though I would not prefer such a solution
[04:09] <arpegius> arpegius: test it ... if you have /usr/bin/java, then /usr is your java_home
[04:09] <ub12> does anyone know how to disable the feature of rhythmbox that fetches and displays the album covers?
[04:09] <arpegius> *ubuntu-home sorry... that was meant for you
[04:09] <Atman> gday, is it a risk? like leaving the administrator password blank in windows? or can no one access it when its not set anyways?
[04:10] <MacDrunk> is smb4k better gui than swat?
[04:10] <ubuntu-home> arpegius -tks
[04:10] <rollerskatejamms> Is there a way to change a partition's label?
[04:10] <gday> Atman: I'm not sure, so I'm not able to answer that question
[04:10] <IndyGunFreak> rollerskatejamms: with gparted
[04:10] <gday> Atman: but it's definitely no security hazard if you do not alter it; that's for sure :)
[04:11] <vbabiy> void^: do you know how those setting are suppose to be set ( on the bottom )

[04:12] <phaidros> hi. I've got problems with freeciv sound.
[04:12] <ThePioneer> Can anyone tell me a diff between stack heap and buffer overflows?
[04:13] <phaidros> downloaded the stdsounds3.tar.gz and unpacked it to /usr/local/share/freeciv
[04:13] <tidrion> Help please... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25367/ No idea what to do
[04:13] <xenex> Does anyone know how to fix my notifications? They keep displaying in the bottom right
[04:13] <Atman> noun vs verb?
[04:13] <phaidros> but civclients still complains about " not finding stdsounds set" :(
[04:13] <CTho> ThePioneer: some buffers are allocatedon the stack, some are on the heap
[04:13] <CTho> ThePioneer: exploiting them is fairly differnet
[04:13] <Taz> Pelo: found something for my resolution problem.. gnome quickres or gnome multires.. not in synaptic
[04:14] <phaidros> any freeciv players here?
[04:14] <ThePioneer> What is the diff between stack and heap?
[04:14] <ZAP> hello folks I really need some help so I hope y'all can help me
[04:14] <ThePioneer> ZAP: Just ask
[04:14] <ZAP> Feisty install that was running just fine until today and all of a sudden my hard drive is full/not reporting its size consistently
[04:15] <ZAP> I can log in normally but in just a minute or two I lose most network connectivity and apps no longer launch and quickly the whole thing goes unstable
[04:15] <Icehawk78> I'm not sure if this is necessarily the correct place, but I'm looking for information on connecting my Visual Studio .net application to my Ubuntu server running MySQL
[04:15] <valehru> the fonts in Opera are all screwed up...any tips ?
[04:15] <fleetadmiral74> Use Firefox?
[04:16] <ejm> !broadcom
[04:16] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:16] <IndyGunFreak> valehru: whats wrong with them
[04:16] <ZAP> when I look at the partition in gparted (it's a 120GB IDE drive with 115 for Ubuntu and 3 or so swap) I see the correct size but it shows as almost completely full
[04:16] <ZAP> when I look in nautilus it underreports the drive as about 52GB
[04:17] <vbabiy> void^: http://pastebin.co.uk/16988
[04:17] <valehru> IndyGunFreak, well, the defaults look nothing like they should do.  I would expect the fonts to be similar to what the experience is in Firefox
[04:17] <IndyGunFreak> valehru: odd, they look similar to me... try holding the control button, and moving your scroll wheel on the mouse up or down.
[04:17] <ZAP> oh and when it becomes unstable I no longer see shutdown or reboot options in the shutdown dialog (just log off, suspend, hibernate) and if I logoff I get a wacky different login screen that doesn't respond
[04:18] <ZAP> so now I'm stuck in XP!!! Any idea what could be going on and how I might fix it?
[04:18] <cE_cRi_TmN_fS> #semarang
[04:18] <vbabiy> void^: BRB i have to restart
[04:20] <ZAP> don't all speak at once now...
[04:20] <isiahil> can anybody help me with my intel prowireless 3945 card?
[04:21] <yo2k_> cE_cRi_TmN_fS: #semarang , waht you mean?
[04:21] <valehru> IndyGunFreak, you can see the difference here: http://www.beilabs.com/images/opera.png and http://www.beilabs.com/images/firefox.png
[04:21] <valehru> IndyGunFreak, firefox is using the page defaults, Opera doesnt seem to be doing that.
[04:21] <isiahil> the drivers for it is installed but its not working
[04:21] <isiahil> like there is no eth1
[04:21] <IndyGunFreak> valehru: i don't know, i guess i just don't have a prob with Opera
[04:21] <vbabiy> void^: any idea
[04:22] <MacDrunk> hey what kdwallet?

[04:24] <isiahil> indy gun freak,i already been there and follows the steps to troubleshoot but no luck
[04:24] <MacDrunk> so i need to installed manually?
[04:24] <fisico> hi

[04:24] <IndyGunFreak> isiahil: well, then you're screwed
[04:25] <hefo2> so just need to start in recovery mode?
[04:25] <craigbass1976> Tell me about upgrading from edgy to feisty.  Is just doing an upgrade a pretty smooth process, or am I better off installing clean?  I just put edgy on a month or so ago, and don't feel like another clean install, since I had also put dapper on my desktop the day before the edgy install.
[04:25] <isiahil> indygunfreak, i was scared off hearing that
[04:26] <MacDrunk> any way to update a program
[04:26] <hefo2> thx
[04:26] <cycom> what's the update to xscrensaver for?  The 'Changes' weren't available on my update.

[04:27] <craigbass1976> ZAP, what was the question, I just got here
[04:27] <greyfrog> ZAP, basically noone on right now knew the answer immediately
[04:27] <greyfrog> ZAP, try re asking the question in a few minutes
[04:27] <eboogie> ZAP: i was away...what's your question?
[04:27] <ZAP> that's OK, but sometimes via IRC it seems like no one's listening at all and that can be exasperating
[04:28] <AlbertEin> hi, i have ubuntu 7.04 and when i try to open open office i get: libsvt680li.so: invalid ELF header. I tried reinstalling OO.org but it was of no help, does someone knows what the problem could be?
[04:28] <ZAP> thanks
[04:28] <craigbass1976> ZAP, sometimes no one is
[04:28] <AlbertEin> after the error messege OO-org crashs
[04:28] <eboogie> ZAP: your question...?
[04:29] <craigbass1976> ZAP, rest assured though, the folks in here are the nicest (collectively) than in any other room I've visited.  Especially toward noobs.
[04:29] <eboogie> now ZAP is not listening to me!!! ;)
[04:29] <borg7_> I have a 2 NIC LTSP setup I just installed dansguardian.  When I try to boot up a client it gets DHCP but it doesn't pull from TFTP. Any thoughts?
[04:29] <cycom> craigbass1976: Except for me.
[04:29] <cycom> craigbass1976: I'm mean.
[04:29] <sexybeast> ZAP: go ahead and ask again i have no idea what your question was
[04:29] <craigbass1976> cycom, well ok, there's always an exception. :)
[04:29] <ZAP> sorry I was cutting and pasting it into one line
[04:29] <ZAP> Feisty install that was running just fine until today and all of a sudden my hard drive is full/not reporting its size consistently. I can log in normally but in just a minute or two I lose most network connectivity and apps no longer launch and quickly the whole thing goes unstable. When I look at the partition in gparted (it's a 120GB IDE drive with 115 for Ubuntu and 3 or so swap) I see the correct size but it shows as almost completely full. When I look in na
[04:30] <cycom> craigbass1976: :D
[04:30] <AlbertEin> .
[04:30] <cycom> ZAP: Cut off at 'When I look in na'
[04:30] <ZAP> When I look in nautilus it underreports the drive as about 52GB. Oh and when it becomes unstable I no longer see shutdown or reboot options in the shutdown dialog (just log off, suspend, hibernate) and if I logoff I get a wacky different login screen that doesn't respond. So now I'm stuck in XP!!! Any idea what could be going on and how I might fix it?
[04:31] <mwales> Zap, have you tried running some hard drive diagnostics on the system
[04:31] <craigbass1976> ZAP, it's been my experience that when things are inconsistent in Linux (and this is by no means true for others) it is hardware trouble.
[04:32] <vbabiy> hey any one know why I would be getting this on a Dual CPU 2.8 xeon when watching this movie http://pastebin.co.uk/16990
[04:32] <craigbass1976> Unlike windows, where sometimes things work, and sometimes they don't
[04:32] <ZAP> well it could be, but I can't seem to get anything to run to check it. What do you suggest? In Partition Magic (in XP) the drive shows as completely full, which is just wrong.
[04:32] <rbil> ZAP: it is possible that you have run out of drive space. Have you looked in /tmp to see what might be there that is taking up alot of space?
[04:33] <yo2k_> someone have a story how to install wine on 7.04 ?
[04:33] <homie> my firefox crashed and I can't login anymore (i'm denied a login because the / partition has no free space); what can be the reason? memory dump a few gigs in size?..
[04:33] <mneptok> ZAP: what does df-h tell you?
[04:33] <mneptok> df -h
[04:33] <ZAP> I checked the size of the tmp directory and it was very little
[04:33] <ThePioneer> sudo apt-get install wine
[04:33] <ZAP> I should have almost 100GB free
[04:33] <rbil> ZAP: it is also possible that /var/log can be taking up much space if there are alot of large log files
[04:33] <mwales> zap.  do a google search for ultimate boot CD.  It contains hard drive diagnostic tools from most of the major HD manufacturers.
[04:33] <greyfrog> ZAP, did you check /var/log?
[04:34] <ZAP> no that I didn't check
[04:34] <greyfrog> rbil <- got it first
[04:34] <mneptok> ZAP: what does df -h tell you?
[04:34] <ZAP> dunno but I'll try it and see from the live CD. actually I did see a cups log freaking out in the system monitor. Any idea what that might be about?
[04:35] <rbil> ZAP: when you get to the GUI login screen, don't start X. Rather use ALT+CTRL+F1 to get to a commandline terminal and you can run some commands from there, such as the df command
[04:35] <mneptok> ZAP: du -h /var
[04:36] <craigbass1976> Tell me about upgrading from edgy to feisty.  Is just doing an upgrade a pretty smooth process, or am I better off installing clean?  I just put edgy on a month or so ago, and don't feel like another clean install, since I had also put dapper on my desktop the day before the edgy install.
[04:36] <mneptok> craigbass1976: use the GUI updater app. you'll be fine.
[04:36] <rbil> craigbass1976: upgrade should be easy enuf
[04:36] <craigbass1976> mneptok, wireless won't bork?  I'm hearing (questions in here really) about firefox doing bad things in feisty
[04:37] <ZAP> ok thanks for the advice I'm going to log in again from the live CD and see what I can figure out
[04:37] <mneptok> craigbass1976: why would wireless not work?
[04:37] <homie> speaking about firefox :P
[04:37] <rbil> craigbass1976: firefox is very unstable under Edgy. Can't be any worse under Feisty
[04:37] <craigbass1976> mneptok, I meant, will it just continue to work, or will I have to set it up again?
[04:37] <ZAP> oh one more question: what is the command to force a disk check?
[04:37] <mwales> If a launchpad bug report references a bug report in bugs.debian.org, should I send a patch to debian or to ubuntu developers?
[04:37] <craigbass1976> rbil, I've noticed that...
[04:37] <TaRDy> hello
[04:37] <mneptok> craigbass1976: should just work. those config files shouldn't change
[04:37] <homie> guys, please.. if the firefox crashed, where would the memory dump be?
[04:38] <mneptok> ZAP: sudo touch /forcefsck
[04:38] <mneptok> homie: /var/crash
[04:38] <homie> thanks :)
[04:38] <craigbass1976> rbil, although, I just installed XP clean a couple days ago to use as a test environment (subversion/tortoisesvn setup) and it's already acting up.
[04:38] <ZAP> great thanks again
[04:39] <craigbass1976> rbil, I hadn't even done anything to it yet really, just installed firefox and vnc and tortoise
[04:39] <brina> I am trying to install a Lucent modem using martain. When I try to compile in the root, I type make all. I get a error, "no such command as make" I assume I'm missing some repositories, can anyone help?
[04:39] <homie> oh no, nothing there :/
[04:40] <rbil> craigbass1976: firefox sometimes just crashes when it's doing nothing here. It's annoying.
[04:40] <craigbass1976> brina, did you install make?
[04:40] <kitche> brina: install build-essential
[04:40] <craigbass1976> ahh
[04:40] <Ed[1] > brina: you could install the package called build-essential
[04:40] <vbabiy> hey guys any idea why I am having problem play videos here is my paste bin of mplayer http://pastebin.co.uk/16990

[04:42] <yo2k_> brina: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[04:42] <brina> craig, no

[04:42] <IndyGunFreak> !nvidia
[04:42] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:43] <orbisvicis> nothing like some eclipse plugin ?
[04:43] <PyroSama> !x200m
[04:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about x200m - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:43] <orbisvicis> some compiler
[04:44] <pike_> !ruby
[04:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ruby - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:44] <pike_> i sent that request to ops like 3 weeks ago..
[04:45] <orbisvicis> so i typed ruby in terminal and nada
[04:45] <pike_> orbisvicis: irb play with that
[04:46] <orbisvicis> aha thanks
[04:46] <digin4> is there an easy way to get KDE on ubuntu 7.04?

[04:47] <who_> sudo apt-get install kde
[04:47] <digin4> ah thanks
[04:47] <digin4> i thought that doesn't work :P
[04:47] <orbisvicis> digin4, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_KDE_.28Kubuntu.29
[04:47] <digin4> :D
[04:47] <MacDrunk> any one here has install smb4k???
[04:48] <xerophyte> what is the best spam solution out there mailscanner,assp, or dspam ?
[04:49] <Dev0205> Hi! Can anybody suggest a way to install more icons to the /usr/share/pixmaps folder? There is a very limited selection :(
[04:49] <yo2k_> someone has how to install wine on 7.04 ?
[04:49] <Mik1> any Maya users here?
[04:49] <orbisvicis> 3dsmax ?
[04:50] <kalpik> yo2k_, http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[04:50] <orbisvicis> maya soon
[04:50] <Dev0205> yo2k_ : Usually you can use the synaptic package manager to install Wine. That's how I went about it.
[04:50] <Mik1> hmm I'm not sure if 3ds Max is even available for ubuntu ( natively ).  I'm having serious slowdowns after using Maya for a long time.  This doesn't seem to happen on any other program
[04:51] <yo2k_> kalpik, Dev0205: thanks...
[04:51] <hefo2> how can i recover my login/pass for my ubuntu session
[04:51] <hefo2> ?
[04:51] <Ed[1] > I have a question: does Wine support DirectX 10?
[04:51] <kalpik> Ed[1] , no..
[04:51] <pike_> hefo2: reboot to recovery mode and passwd username  i guess
[04:51] <bluebanana> how do i install a .run file?
[04:51] <hefo2> can you be more explicit please..im new on ubuntu too
[04:51] <bluebanana> how do i give one object 2 colors in inkscape?
[04:52] <Ed[1] > will it support it? if yes, when?
[04:52] <orbisvicis> oh, no ... i had maya on suse a bit back then reformatted to ubuntu, but i didnt notice any slowdowns
[04:52] <`davo> so every now and then in google maps, gimp and other programs, my mouse cursor will completely disappear when I hover over certain areas..any idea what this is?
[04:52] <Markeda> Um, is it true that Ubuntu and NTFS doesn't play too well together?
[04:52] <Mik1> it always happens if I've been running for more than 15 hrs.
[04:52] <kalpik> bluebanana, sh /path/to/file.run
[04:53] <preaction> Ed[1] : it might, whenever someone adds support
[04:53] <preaction> Markeda: in what way?
[04:53] <kalpik> Markeda, no.. NTFS work great on ubuntu!
[04:53] <preaction> !ntfs-3g | Markeda
[04:53] <ubotu> Markeda: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[04:53] <orbisvicis> Mik1, then again I never rendered anything for that much time
[04:53] <pike_> hefo2: when it first boots up and says 'hit esc' hit esc and one of the options is recovery select that and when you get to a prompt #  type 'passwd hefo2'    or whatever
[04:53] <bluebanana> what does sh mean, kalpik ? thanks.
[04:53] <Markeda> Ah. I thought I had been told once that Linux had a habit of corrupting NTFS or something like that (was a while ago... don't completely remember)
[04:53] <vbabiy> Hey what is a fast media player for ubuntu mplayer is playing my video really slow
[04:53] <Markeda> Thanks for the correction.
[04:54] <MacDrunk> any one here has install smb4k???
[04:54] <ZAP> hello I'm back again but now from ubuntu
[04:54] <pike_> vbabiy: doesnt get much better than mplayer from terminal
[04:54] <hefo2> like passwd hefo2 newpass
[04:54] <kalpik> bluebanana, sh => shell
[04:54] <ZAP> however things are still strange and I hope y'all can help me to diagnose why
[04:54] <preaction> Markeda: corrupting on write, sure. ntfs-3g is still considered "unstable", but apparently it works fine if you aren't using it for mission-critical data
[04:54] <pike_> hefo2: just passwd hefo2   and enter  it will then ask for new pass
[04:54] <Mik1> actually orbisvicis rendering is the only thing that Maya  runs really well.  Maya seems to screw up doing more general rigging/animating stuff.
[04:54] <pike_> hefo2: twice
[04:54] <bluebanana> thanks, kalpik
[04:54] <kalpik> preaction, Markeda NTFS is perfectly stable
[04:54] <hefo2> ic...thanks pike
[04:54] <bluebanana> can xchat do japper protocol?
[04:54] <hefo2> ill try that
[04:54] <kalpik> *NTFS-3G
[04:54] <MacDrunk> does swat and smb4k conflict if installed both??
[04:55] <orbisvicis> Markeda, i think that was under kernel 2.6.20, ie 18 ... and there was a particular fuse bug that is now also ironed out
[04:55] <kalpik> bluebanana, no.. use gaim for that
[04:55] <preaction> kalpik: ah, a recent development
[04:55] <Markeda> So... Just make sure what is being saved, saved correctly and it shouldn't be an issue, then?
[04:55] <ZAP> I was able to force an fsck and that seems to have helped because from the terminal it reported my HD correctly as 108GB or so and 77% free, but now inside Gnome it shows as only 50-some GB and only 13GB free, and that seems to be the precursor to it crashing on me
[04:56] <preaction> Markeda: ntfs-3g has been upgraded by the author to "stable", so go nuts
[04:56] <Markeda> All right. Thank you for your time, all!
[04:56] <ZAP> I am running the disk usage analyzer now. Nothing significant in var or tmp, but 48GB in media
[04:56] <LaserLine> Is there a reason why some DVD's will play in Ubuntu 7.04 and some won't.  I installed the codecs, but some DVDs will play and other like the movie cars won't?
[04:56] <orbisvicis> Mik1, in comparison to 3dsmax maya is way confusing ... but im still running through the tutorials, so
[04:56] <ZAP> oh wait that's my Windows drive and that should be right
[04:57] <rbil> ZAP: :-)
[04:57] <Mik1> orbisvicis : agreed Maya is convuluted.  But it has its pros
[04:58] <thechris> If i wanted to set up printing, but could not set it up using the GUI, what would I do?
[04:58] <thechris> also, does anyone know how to re-enable System-Printers in gnome?
[04:58] <MacDrunk> need help here
[04:59] <thechris> err, how to re-enable System-Administration-Printing that is
[04:59] <Redneck|Ubuntu> omg guys whats up
[04:59] <MacDrunk> i need to update smb4k from 0.8.0 to 0.8.3 any ideas?
[04:59] <orbisvicis> Mik1, the only thing that seems easy is hair .... long hair this & fat hair that .... yada though apparently caustics and gi supposed to be easier
[05:00] <Redneck|Ubuntu> got a question on my return, my uncle has Windows Office Applications on his ubuntu laptop, how do I get that on mine?
[05:00] <vbabiy> does any know when there will be a update to mplayer in the repo
[05:00] <Mik1> orbisvicis:  I've never tried Max, have you got it to work on ubuntu?
[05:00] <rbil> thechris: http://localhost:631/
[05:00] <preaction> Redneck|Ubuntu: why isn't OO.org good enough? there are non-free solutions, but maybe Wine will run them
[05:01] <MacDrunk> uff im not getting any help

[05:02] <preaction> Redneck|Ubuntu: OO.o can open and save MS Office documents
[05:02] <Redneck|Ubuntu> school has windows, I need to be able to do excel and word and such on the laptop and use them
[05:02] <MacDrunk> i have samba installed and swat
[05:02] <orbisvicis> Mik1, no i used max till last year ... but since i run linux now, and university only allows maya, ive switched ... the only problems was w/ Xgl & older xorgs without aiglx, that some gtk+ windows would render transparently
[05:02] <_Ahti> MacDrunk: Ok, just a regular file-sharing, or?
[05:02] <orbisvicis> but with ubuntu, alls well
[05:02] <MacDrunk> but i can seem to be able to make my windows laptop to view the linux share folder
[05:03] <cparker> Is it appropriate to file a bug report for when a program (audio/video player, game, etc) doesn't get added to the GNOME menu?
[05:03] <orbisvicis> like the keyset button
[05:03] <_Ahti> MacDrunk: Good
[05:03] <MacDrunk> but i can view my windows folder whit my linux laptop
[05:03] <_Ahti> MacDrunk: What Ubutu are you running?

[05:04] <kalpik> MacDrunk, are you able to ping you ubuntu machine from windows?
[05:04] <MacDrunk> i can see it on my home network
[05:04] <NemesisD> hi guys, i'm frequently helping a friend of mine with ubuntu (they still have edgy) but for some reason almost every package they search for in synaptic/apt doesn't show up even though I know it exists, whats up with that?
[05:04] <cparker> !tell thechris about printing
[05:04] <cparker> ;)
[05:04] <_Ahti> MacDrunk: Can you access it?
[05:04] <cparker> Sorry, had to.
[05:04] <rbil> MacDrunk: you need to create a samba user
[05:04] <thechris> specifically, my network printer now says that it is busy and will retry in 10 seconds
[05:04] <MacDrunk> but when i try to access the linux laptop i cant because it ask me for a login and pass
[05:05] <cparker> thechris, what kind of network printer?
[05:05] <_Ahti> MacDrunk: what rbil said
[05:05] <MacDrunk> i have edited the samab conf file
[05:05] <Mik1> yeah that's why I chose this distro, I knew my nVidia card would be somewhat usable
[05:05] <thechris> cparker: hp c5180
[05:05] <SirBob1701> anyone here get an asus A8N32-SLI DELUXE to work on feisty?
[05:05] <kalpik> MacDrunk, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#Samba_Server

[05:06] <cparker> thechris, how did you install your printer?
[05:06] <thechris> cparker: gnome
[05:07] <MacDrunk> ok kapli i do that and get back to you ok
[05:07] <NemesisD> anyone? could his sources.list be corrupt or something?
[05:07] <preaction> MacDrunk: uhm. the login/pass is your username and password for the linux system. you may have to use "sudo smbpasswd <username>" to set the password correctly
[05:07] <MacDrunk> ok
[05:07] <topcat1027> can somebody help me with totem?
[05:08] <kalpik> MacDrunk, yeah.. go through that link.. That should be fine

[05:09] <klrtmto> hello humans
[05:09] <klrtmto> does anyone know of a good program I can use to find out why my net activity seems to be transferring info while I'm not DOING anything??
[05:09] <cparker> thechris, I'm assuming you have the most recent version of HPLIP installed on your machine.
[05:10] <preaction> klrtmto: tcpdump might work
[05:10] <the_hammer> anyone here dual boot linux/windows?
[05:10] <preaction> !anyone | the_hammer
[05:10] <ubotu> the_hammer: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[05:10] <orbisvicis> so im liking stellarium, but is there anything 'cooler' for linux (except celestia) ... or anyone know how to get 1920 x 1200 landscapes ?
[05:10] <S0me1> the_hammer: yes
[05:10] <klrtmto> tcpdump.... thank you. will that tell me WHICH program is using the wlan card?
[05:10] <thechris> cparker: if that ships with ubuntu
[05:10] <klrtmto> and yes. I dual boot linux and winxp on this laptop
[05:10] <foso> hey, im having trouble partitioning my hd
[05:10] <the_hammer> got 2 hard drives and 1st 1 is linux slave is xp
[05:11] <rbil> klrtmto: you can install wireshark and then watch all the tcp chatter that's going on
[05:11] <topcat1027> can somebody please help me with totem or tell me where to go to get help\?
[05:11] <preaction> klrtmto: no, it will tell you what port the traffic is being sent on, which should tell an educated user what program is doing it
[05:11] <pike_> foso: using what gparted?
[05:11] <the_hammer> i can boot linux but not xp i dont get any options to boot into xp
[05:11] <nyc-h0st> hi all, i need to install something resembling portcentry on ubuntu server, any ideas? anyone install portcentry on ubuntu?
[05:11] <klrtmto> well... I'm only SORTA an educated linux user... closer to a n00b methinks
[05:11] <NemesisD> a friend of mine using edgy for some reason is getting no results for almost any package he searches for in synaptic. anyone know why that may happen?
[05:11] <preaction> klrtmto: but you must realize there are pings and other normal network traffic sent by the kernel itself. in wireless connections, for example, there's always going to be chatter
[05:11] <foso> pike_ yes, from the live cd, i got it to take 15 gb off the xp partition, but cant make ubuntu larger
[05:11] <S0me1> the_hammer: have you got error message?
[05:11] <orbisvicis> the_hammer, you need to edit /boot/grub/menu.1st
[05:12] <orbisvicis> and add windows
[05:12] <the_hammer> no errors
[05:12] <preaction> klrtmto: if you're really that concerned about it, now's a good time to educate yourself
[05:12] <cparker> thechris, when was the last time you updated your software packages?
[05:12] <the_hammer> ok
[05:12] <klrtmto> I run superkaramba and watch the net traffic. it's always zero unless I do something online.
[05:12] <Felarin> if i installed the zabbix package, to use the web interface, must i install the php zabbix package too?
[05:12] <googlesearch7> how do i use this?
[05:12] <orbisvicis> chainload, however b/c windows is on second drive you will need to use grubs mapping commands to actually switch the drive order
[05:12] <klrtmto> today.... it's at 100% and I dunno why....
[05:12] <Felarin> cause i didn't install that and when i go to the web interface, it simply says "NOT OK:
[05:12] <amrcidiot> guys, how do i move a folder to my /usr ?
[05:12] <Felarin> i'm used to compiling it, first time i'm using the package for it
[05:12] <orbisvicis> windows has to be the 1st drive to boot
[05:12] <orbisvicis> one sec
[05:12] <amrcidiot> it says access is denied
[05:13] <pike_> foso: thats not a big problem. my / partition is usually lik 5-8 gigs. this install is 10 because i intend to do alot with it but just keep your music and movies on xp partition and mount it in ubuntu as /media/share or something. 15 is fine
[05:13] <the_hammer> is it possible to run windows apps on 2nd drive wjile being in linux?
[05:13] <_Ahti> the_hammer: run update-grub
[05:13] <Felarin> amrcidiot : try doing sudo mv /path
[05:13] <klrtmto> it may be possible to do that the_hammer: lemme look real quick
[05:13] <amrcidiot> ok
[05:13] <pike_> foso: youll prob use like 2-3 gigs of that only for a while
[05:13] <cparker> amrcidiot, sudo mv /target /usr
[05:13] <klrtmto> I know winxp is a spoiled brat in that it must be the first partition on a disk. I've never tried it on a second disk.
[05:13] <topcat1027> can somebody tell me where i can get help with totem?
[05:13] <foso> pike_ yes, but i want to have everything on this partition, gonna leave jsut enough for xp to run school programs
[05:13] <m040> how can I get ls to display one screen full at a time?
[05:14] <Dr_willis> m040,  ls | more
[05:14] <preaction> amrcidiot: why do you want to do that? there's usually a special time to move things there.
[05:14] <kalpik> topcat1027, what help exactly do you need?
[05:14] <amrcidiot> i do that, but it still says access denied
[05:14] <topcat1027> kalpik, the brightness is all messed up
[05:14] <the_hammer> lol
[05:14] <spasticteapot> topcat1027: Fell a tree, carve it with whatever ritualistic shapes and entities you feel are appropriate, and stick it in the ground. A concrete base might help.
[05:14] <cparker> Is it appropriate to file a bug report for when a program (audio/video player, game, etc) doesn't get added to the GNOME menu?
[05:14] <foso> also, pike_  i dont know if it will let me put the 15 back on xp
[05:14] <hiker13526> Will an external USB hard drive work on ubuntu?
[05:14] <thechris> cparker: sunday
[05:14] <Redneck|Ubuntu> ok so how do I go about using wine and installing M$ office?
[05:14] <topcat1027> spasticteapot, i'll go try that right now... what do i have to type into terminal?
[05:14] <_Ahti> cparker: Not really
[05:14] <spasticteapot> topcat1027: I was kidding.
[05:14] <S0me1> hiker13526: yes
[05:14] <klrtmto> the_hammer: PM me
[05:14] <_Ahti> cparker: just add it manually
[05:15] <amrcidiot> ok
[05:15] <cparker> hiker13526, should
[05:15] <amrcidiot> nvm gotit
[05:15] <amrcidiot> thanks
[05:15] <the_hammer> well im thinking if i change the master/slave drives making windows primary master and linux secondary slave im thinking i wont see linux

[05:15] <Riversidee> quanto tempo que eu no vejo um rede de mirc to massa
[05:15] <MacDrunk> kalpi
[05:15] <Riversidee> uhsuhshus
[05:15] <cparker> _Ahti, then how do I make sure it gets added automatically in the future?
[05:15] <rbil> cparker: maybe it just needs to be activated in the menu? Have you looked at the menu setup?
[05:15] <MacDrunk> kalpik
[05:15] <pike_> foso: well ive not used gparted really. i know gparted has its own livecd its usually a bit more up to date and sometimes works when ubuntu cd fails.  ideally id say reinstall xp and put it on a smaller partition but i know thats a hassle
[05:15] <hiker13526> Is there a good format to use? I have files > 4gb, so I can't use the Fat32 it came with. NTFS or Ext3 I guess is the question
[05:15] <preaction> the_hammer: more likely you won't be able to boot, as now your bootloader is on the secondary slave drive
[05:15] <cparker> rbil, good call. lemme check.
[05:15] <kalpik> MacDrunk, yes?
[05:15] <S0me1> the_hammer: boot from live cd and run grub-install /dev/sda , if you face this issue
[05:16] <kalpik> hiker13526, EXT3 or XFS
[05:16] <spasticteapot> topcat1027: Seriously - "man topcat"
[05:16] <orbisvicis> no he can leave the drives the way the are and switch the mapping, im searching and not finding
[05:16] <hiker13526> will XFS work on windows?
[05:16] <spasticteapot> Blarg.
[05:16] <topcat1027> kalpik, that worked... i thought it'd be something different tho, because for some reason when i took a screen shot it turned out normal. thanks tho
[05:16] <spasticteapot> topcat1027: Man totem.
[05:16] <foso> ok, thanks pike_, maybe ill try a gparted live cd
[05:16] <MacDrunk> i just create the new file but i need to know were it says that i need to create a new file called smbusers
[05:16] <topcat1027> spasticteapot, what?
[05:16] <Riversidee>  curtindo: [ 08 Octavarium ]  [ 24:05 ]  [ 36.36mb ]  [ 211kbps ]   blessed 
[05:16] <tmatix> what is the simplest way to serve some static files via http on the local network?  i'd like to just be able to drag some files to a desktop folder a la macOS 9
[05:16] <kalpik> hiker13526, no.. if you need to access it from windows, then EXT3 or reiser is the way to go
[05:17] <Riversidee> algum sabe usar corretamente o ntfs-3g
[05:17] <Riversidee> eu monto a partio no fstab corretamante
[05:17] <Wagner-> clam says no definitions found; how can i load them?
[05:17] <spasticteapot> topcat1027: "man totem" gives you the manual for totem. Totem -h might be how you get to the totem help page.
[05:17] <MacDrunk> i need to input a new line that says SYSTEM USERNAME = NETWORK USERNAME is my login in to ubuntu???
[05:17] <hiker13526> kalpik: I read reiser was kinda going through a transitional stage, should I just stick with Ext3? Have any suggestion on which to choose?
[05:17] <Riversidee> em /mnt aparece os diretrios corretos e monta beleza, mas na rea de trabalho no monta
[05:17] <kalpik> MacDrunk, which file are you talking about?
[05:17] <Riversidee> =|
[05:17] <kalpik> hiker13526, go with EXT3 :)
[05:17] <MacDrunk> smbusers
[05:17] <topcat1027> spasticteapot, thanks, i'm out tho
[05:18] <wile_e8> If I push the eject button on my dvd drive to eject a disc, Ubuntu won't recognize any other discs I put in until I restart.  Is there a way to solve this without restarting the next time I forget to use the desktop icon to eject?
[05:18] <topcat1027> and thanks kalpik, too
[05:18] <topcat1027> later
[05:18] <pike_> Riversidee: welcome! i have no idea what you just said.
[05:18] <Riversidee> hi guys
[05:18] <preaction> wile_e8: open a terminal and type "mount /dev/cdrom"
[05:18] <hiker13526> kalpik: I made the right choice then. I had already formatted it and stored files, but I wanted to check and make sure that I wasn't going to have trouble later. thanks for the help :D
[05:18] <kalpik> MacDrunk, yes.. just write MacDrunk = "MacDrunk"
[05:18] <kalpik> if that's your ubuntu username
[05:18] <MacDrunk> ok
[05:18] <MacDrunk> thanks
[05:18] <kalpik> hiker13526, no problem :)
[05:18] <MacDrunk> then i need no restart samba rigt?
[05:19] <kalpik> MacDrunk, sudo /etc/init.d/samba reload
[05:19] <thechris> What TCP port do i use for a c5100 network printer.  it may not be 9100
[05:19] <Deathlokke> I just tried to install the NVidia drivers for 6.06, and when I restarted I got an error. Any suggestions?
[05:20] <MacDrunk> thanks
[05:20] <kalpik> MacDrunk, so did it work?
[05:20] <MacDrunk> and i can use smb4k
[05:20] <MacDrunk> let me see
[05:21] <MacDrunk> no
[05:21] <MacDrunk> it wont work
[05:21] <Redneck|Ubuntu> eeek
[05:21] <kalpik> is it not asking for username password?
[05:21] <Redneck|Ubuntu> ok so wine should work
[05:21] <AznDinner> Can any1 help me?
[05:21] <kalpik> !anyone | AznDinner
[05:21] <ubotu> AznDinner: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[05:21] <juan> hello
[05:21] <wile_e8> preaction: thanks
[05:21] <tmatix> i just want a simple way to have a web-server on my desktop!  don't tell me I need to write this software myself? :)
[05:21] <AznDinner> My computer keeps  restarting when i try to install ubuntu
[05:21] <Redneck|Ubuntu> but how do I get microsoft office on it
[05:22] <AznDinner> the boot cd doesnt even load to the menu
[05:22] <AznDinner> it just restarts
[05:22] <Redneck|Ubuntu> AznDinner, have you changed boot sequence?
[05:22] <AznDinner> i can only install 7.04 alterntice
[05:22] <carajea1> Is there a reason why ubuntu is so unstable and unpredictable?
[05:22] <preaction> tmatix: apache2 is the standard http server, but it's not trivial
[05:22] <kalpik> AznDinner, alternate is the way to go ;-)
[05:22] <mage> can I specify a different gateway for a process somehow?
[05:22] <MacDrunk> kalpik see i can see my windows folders from here which is my linux lap runnin ubuntu,, but whenever i try to access my linux laptop whit my windows laptop it ask me for a login pass how come?
[05:22] <AznDinner> i know
[05:22] <preaction> carajea1: can you be more specific and less troll-worthy?
[05:22] <AznDinner> i downloaded the alternatice
[05:22] <AznDinner> but still
[05:23] <_Ahti> AznDinner: Yeah alternative is a lot better
[05:23] <AznDinner> imy computer restarts
[05:23] <Deathlokke> carajea1: It's really no worse than Windows once you get the hang of it
[05:23] <Redneck|Ubuntu> MacDrunk, you need to setup user permissions
[05:23] <preaction> MacDrunk: because it wants a user/password. give it one?
[05:23] <hiker13526> Is the alternative just plain better in general, or should one try the normal installation first?
[05:23] <carajea1> well i have tried to be but for some reason today ubuntu has lost its mind.
[05:23] <carajea1> last night my sound played fine and today it doesnt do a thing
[05:23] <kalpik> MacDrunk, yes, you have to provide the usename you put in when you ran the sudo smbpasswd -a system_username command
[05:23] <AznDinner> i have dled 606 610 both 32/64 bit
[05:23] <rbil> MacDrunk: and you are sharing a directory on your Linux box?
[05:23] <tmatix> preaction: yes, i've set up apache before and i'm way too lazy to want to do that just to share a mock-up website on the local network
[05:23] <carajea1> now today my fav game is crashing for no reason and it played fine yesterday
[05:23] <MacDrunk>  how im newbi whit ubunto
[05:23] <AznDinner> but then when the boot is starting to load
[05:23] <AznDinner> my computer restarts
[05:23] <MacDrunk> rbil yes
[05:23] <pike_> tmatix: ive looked a bit for a nice front end to apache. something simple. i havent really seen one used much in ubuntu though im sure they are out there.  might be a good little ruby/python project
[05:23] <MacDrunk> tree folders
[05:24] <kalpik> MacDrunk, i hope you substituted system_usernme with your real username on ubuntu!
[05:24] <carajea1> now the difference between yesterday and today is the fact that i did nothing to it
[05:24] <AznDinner> but with 704 64 bit my computer loads it perfectly
[05:24] <MacDrunk> yes
[05:24] <MacDrunk> i didt that
[05:24] <carajea1> i left it on at night then went to bed then work got home from work and everything is all a mess
[05:24] <rbil> MacDrunk: and you've created a user/password pair for samba?
[05:24] <cotyrothery> can someone help me out here i go to install windows and i get to the end and it trys to creat a user partion but it fails to do so.
[05:24] <Deathlokke> I just tried to install the NVidia drivers for 6.06, and when I restarted I got an error. Any suggestions?
[05:24] <MacDrunk> woow how?
[05:24] <kalpik> MacDrunk, when it asked for the password, after that command you entered it right?
[05:24] <preaction> carajea1: these things do not just magically happen, no matter how used to window's behavior you are. do you have automatic updates turned on?
[05:24] <tmatix> pike_: i'm envisioning something that docks in the gnome system bar, where you can click on it and specify a list of directories to host, start/stop etc
[05:24] <carajea1> nope
[05:24] <carajea1> not at all
[05:24] <MacDrunk> hehehe sorry for been so lame here
[05:24] <preaction> carajea1: then what changed?
[05:25] <rbil> MacDrunk: have u restarted samba server since creating password?
[05:25] <MacDrunk> kalpik what do you mean? afther de command
[05:25] <kalpik> MacDrunk, why dont you try entering that username and password when windows asks for it? ;-)
[05:25] <kalpik> MacDrunk, sudo smbpasswd -a system_username
[05:25] <maeth> hi , a got a friend of mine in ssh , im trying to help him to get ATI working with XGL and beryl
[05:25] <carajea1> not a thing supposdly well i didnt change anything
[05:25] <AznDinner> freaking ubuntu hates my computer
[05:25] <AznDinner> >_<
[05:25] <maeth> got an x200
[05:25] <MacDrunk> done that kalpik
[05:25] <AznDinner> can Xubuntu have the 3d desktop thingy?
[05:25] <carajea1> i may try reinstalling ubuntu again and see what happens but this is kinda crazy
[05:25] <vbabiy> Hey guys any one know when the next update will be out for MPlayer
[05:25] <Don64> AznDinner: What type of pc do you have?
[05:25] <cparker> thechris, I've had good luck with the HPLIP Toolbox. It doesn't show up by default in the GNOME menu (System > Preferences), and you'll need to install python-qt3 to get it running.
[05:25] <AznDinner> a 64 bit amd computer
[05:25] <preaction> carajea1: again, these things do not magically happen. does anyone else use the computer? what have you done recently?
[05:25] <carajea1> not a sole
[05:25] <AznDinner> well laptop
[05:25] <carajea1> soul
[05:25] <kalpik> MacDrunk, ok.. does it show you any files after entering the username and password?
[05:26] <orbisvicis> hm froze
[05:26] <carajea1> it was just sitting here with my instant messenger away message on
[05:26] <carajea1> nothing more
[05:26] <kalpik> AznDinner, try the 64 bit ubuntu
[05:26] <MacDrunk> kalpik you say my windows machine or my linux???
[05:26] <AznDinner> I HAVE
[05:26] <carajea1> then i got home from work checked my messages then i started up amarok
[05:26] <AznDinner> only 7.04 64 bit works
[05:26] <carajea1> and poof no sound
[05:26] <kalpik> MacDrunk, windows..
[05:26] <AznDinner> but i hate 7.04
[05:26] <MacDrunk> i told you that my windows machine ask me for a login pass
[05:26] <MacDrunk> nop
[05:26] <orbisvicis> oops
[05:26] <carajea1> i check all the sound prefs. to make sure it was the right device
[05:26] <MacDrunk> i cant access the linux lapt
[05:26] <tmatix> i don't mind trying to write this myself at all... but always when i think i have a good idea i find it has already been written, so i want to check thoroughly. not much on google
[05:27] <carajea1> everything was right there.
[05:27] <kalpik> MacDrunk, did you enter the username and password on your windoes machine when it asks you for it?
[05:27] <pike_> AznDinner: yeah you can do beryl/compiz on xubuntu and kde
[05:27] <cparker> thechris, the HPLIP Toolbox auto-discovers my HP Photosmart networked printer.
[05:27] <carajea1> i dont know where to go with the soudn thing
[05:27] <carajea1> its kinda on-going
[05:27] <PurpZeY> Can someone please tell me how to add NTFS partitions back to NTFS configuration after a kernel upgrade?
[05:27] <MacDrunk> yes kalpik and it return to the same screen dialog
[05:27] <Deathlokke_> You aren;t using an X-Fi are you?
[05:27] <preaction> carajea1: "kinda on-going"?
[05:27] <kranol> can someone tell me what the default image viewer program in ubuntu is called?
[05:27] <preaction> MacDrunk: that means your username/password was probably wrong
[05:27] <kalpik> MacDrunk, the username and password are case sensitive.. i hope you know that
[05:28] <preaction> kranol: eye of gnome
[05:28] <pike_> kranol: eog?
[05:28] <MacDrunk> yes
[05:28] <kranol> pike_, preaction, ty
[05:28] <rbil> MacDrunk: restart samba server .... sudo /etc/init.d/smb restart
[05:28] <MacDrunk> both are lowerkey
[05:28] <orbisvicis> title Windows XP; map (hd1) (hd0); root (hd1,0); chainloader+1; makeactive
[05:28] <TaRDy> !xdl
[05:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xdl - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:29] <TaRDy> !beryl
[05:29] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[05:29] <rbil> MacDrunk: is the samba username the same as your system username that you're logged in with now on Linux side?
[05:29] <MacDrunk> ok rbil
[05:29] <kalpik> MacDrunk, ok, can you please tell me what all you did?
[05:29] <ToddEDM> hey guys, how can i get desktop effects to work...... it just goes white after i enable, then the screen just comes back
[05:29] <MacDrunk> ok kalpik
[05:29] <carajea1> well its the ubuntu wont let more than one sound required application use the sound card
[05:29] <MacDrunk> i install samba manually then swat
[05:29] <kalpik> MacDrunk, in one line please :)
[05:30] <preaction> carajea1: ubuntu fiesty? sounds like you're using OSS and not ALSA
[05:30] <carajea1> nope im using alsa fr sure
[05:30] <carajea1> for*
[05:30] <rbil> MacDrunk: sorry it's ... sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[05:30] <carajea1> and yes ubuntu fiesty
[05:30] <MacDrunk> then i follwow ubuntu festy guide on how to set up share folders whit no autentification and i make alll that in come in that guide
[05:30] <ZAP> hello all ZAP reporting back. I think I figured it out! and MAN is it an interesting problem!
[05:30] <the_hammer> hmmm its not there
[05:30] <orbisvicis> ToddEDM, does  beryl --use-copy work?
[05:30] <orbisvicis> if you are using beryl
[05:31] <the_hammer> i forget who iw as talking to lol
[05:31] <wikityler> On this computer ssh takes 30 seconds to ask me for the password, so nautilus cant connect to my servers. Any idea why?
[05:31] <the_hammer> rough day heh
[05:31] <preaction> carajea1: what sound card? it's possible the sound card is blocking, if it's ancient or cheap
[05:31] <klrtmto> maybe me hammer.... about menu.lst?
[05:31] <rbil> MacDrunk: you need to have user authentication on in samba.conf
[05:31] <MacDrunk> rbil how?
[05:31] <lo4fer> are beryl etc. generally considered a fun toy or are there practical reasons for using it (disregarding any stability issues)?
[05:31] <pike_> lo4fer: its useful for converting folks to linux
[05:31] <kalpik> MacDrunk, just follow the  How to install Samba Server for files/folders sharing service, and the  How to add/edit/delete network users sections on http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#Samba_Server
[05:31] <Jordan_U> lo4fer, there are a few nice things like expose
[05:32] <lo4fer> ha, pike
[05:32] <MacDrunk> ok
[05:32] <ZAP> Basically I must have had this problem for a while and not known it. I had used gparted to copy my original Feisty installation from one partition to a whole other drive, but I didn't delete the original partition and apparently ubuntu was using both of them!
[05:32] <PurpZeY> Can someone please tell me how to add NTFS partitions back to NTFS configuration after a kernel upgrade? I did it once before, I know it involves removing a line from a sources file...but I'm not sure which files to edit.
[05:32] <klrtmto> the_hammer: did it work?
[05:32] <pike_> lo4fer: makes you a good ambassador
[05:32] <carajea1> well i had a x-fi which as we all know doesnt work with linux so like 5 days ago i went out and bought a audigy se that was said to work. which up untill todya did so i thought i was in the clear
[05:32] <supaneko> Could someone recommend a good (and fast) CD ripper? Grip is painfully slow and Sound Juicer seems like it's not going as fast as it should.
[05:32] <preaction> lo4fer: compositing managers are a Good Thing beyond eye candy: each application gets its own mini-screen, which are then layered together.
[05:32] <CTho> is the "preferred" way of installing g++ in ubuntu using the shell
[05:32] <CTho> i don't see it in the add/remove applications list.
[05:32] <klrtmto> supaneko: use k3b
[05:32] <ZAP> So I lost all my recent files, but I now have my full drive space back.
[05:32] <preaction> CTho: apt-get install build-essential
[05:33] <Don64> Zap: what did you do?
[05:33] <CTho> preaction: excellent, thanks
[05:33] <MacDrunk> one think kalpik i follow the guide step by step bunt only want to share one folder to my windows network whit out autentification as it was a windows machine
[05:33] <supaneko> klrtmto, thank you.
[05:33] <kalpik> MacDrunk, first lets try to get it working with authentication :)
[05:34] <rbil> MacDrunk: authentication is more secure and a better idea
[05:34] <MacDrunk> well yea
[05:34] <MacDrunk> ok so i need to follow step by step the guide
[05:34] <AznDinner> i was wondering
[05:34] <AznDinner> how do i log in
[05:34] <AznDinner> after u register?
[05:34] <kalpik> MacDrunk, just follow the  How to install Samba Server for files/folders sharing service, and the  How to add/edit/delete network users sections on http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#Samba_Server
[05:34] <ZAP> I deleted the old partition and now ubuntu is acting like normal with just the one correct partition
[05:34] <preaction> !enter | AznDinner
[05:34] <ubotu> AznDinner: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[05:35] <supaneko> I'm a little unsure of which encoding to go with (instead of MP3). How would an ogg fair against a FLAC? Which should I go with?
[05:35] <pike_> AznDinner: nickserv?
[05:35] <preaction> AznDinner: do you mean IRC nickserv? /msg nickserv identify <password>
[05:35] <MacDrunk> ok kalpi i would thanks one im done im getting back to you ok
[05:35] <kalpik> supaneko, OGG for lossy and FLAC for lossless
[05:35] <kalpik> MacDrunk, sure..
[05:35] <preaction> supaneko: OGG is lossy, compresses smaller at the expense of perfect quality. FLAC is lossless, less compression for perfect sound quality
[05:36] <ZAP> I think maybe I should post this on the forums in case it ever happens to anyone else
[05:36] <lo4fer> ogg is less lossy than mp3 but also more highly compressed? is that right?
[05:36] <preaction> supaneko: the idea behind audio codec compression is to remove parts of the sound wave that the human ear is incapable of distinguishing, thus a smaller file size
[05:36] <carajea1> i think the updates today somehow messed up my ubuntu
[05:36] <preaction> carajea1: but you told me nothing changed?
[05:36] <kalpik> lo4fer, yes, OGG is a better format than MP3
[05:36] <supaneko> What would be a good bitrate to go with with OGG?
[05:37] <kalpik> supaneko, 128 ahould be good enough
[05:37] <preaction> supaneko: variable bitrate if you can, 192 being the max
[05:37] <kalpik> supaneko, though it all depends on you!
[05:37] <supaneko> Hmm... Would the larger file size with FLAC be "worth it?" Would the lossless be much noticeable?
[05:37] <preaction> supaneko: depends: do you notice the difference between a CD and an MP3 of that same CD?
[05:37] <kalpik> supaneko, you wont be able to notice the diff between the OGG file and the FLAC file
[05:38] <pike_> well.. he is supaneko
[05:38] <ToddEDM> orbisvicis: THANKS
[05:38] <orbisvicis> np
[05:38] <Jordan_U> supaneko, Maybe not in the first transcode, but once you choose lossy you can't go back
[05:38] <MacDrunk> whats uncomment
[05:38] <tmatix> supaneko: probably not.... but the appeal for lossless is that you can decompress a FLAC file and get byte-for-byte exactly what you put in. so its nice for archival
[05:38] <carajea1> well other than that
[05:38] <kalpik> MacDrunk, remove the # or the ;
[05:38] <carajea1> i didnt think that would make a big difference
[05:38] <carajea1> can i roll those back or something?
[05:39] <orbisvicis> ToddEDM, to make it permanent, put the following in ~/.beryl-managerrc :  [beryl-settings]  /n  render_path=2 (where /n is a new render_path=2) line
[05:39] <preaction> carajea1: lesson for today, in the computer (logical) world, answering "no" means "no". not "no, except for this, this, and this."
[05:39] <MacDrunk> ok kalpik you mean i delete those characters from the file?
[05:39] <preaction> carajea1: not easily, no. what changed?
[05:40] <kalpik> MacDrunk, yes, from the starting of the line
[05:40] <rbil> MacDrunk: also have the workgroup = line have the same Workgroup name as u use on your Windows workgroup
[05:40] <onebadmutha> howdy all
[05:40] <carajea1> i have no idea what changed as far as the updates
[05:40] <onebadmutha> painful newb here
[05:40] <Jordan_U> !hi | onebadmutha
[05:40] <ubotu> onebadmutha: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:40] <onebadmutha> i'm trying to come up in the world, get more sophisticated, you know, dump my filthy windows
[05:40] <carajea1> ok im gonna adhere to the lesson of the day lol
[05:41] <preaction> carajea1: also, unless you see an update you need, you don't have to update really.
[05:41] <carajea1> im new to linux so i didnt know if i needed them
[05:41] <carajea1> or not
[05:41] <preaction> carajea1: was a kernel update included? did it ask you to restart?
[05:41] <carajea1> yeah it asked me to restart
[05:41] <null> Can I have a web page for my desktop background?
[05:41] <onebadmutha> jordan:  hiya
[05:42] <pike_> null: yes. but i dont know how
[05:42] <MacDrunk> ok rbil
[05:42] <carajea1> is there a way to tell what was installed today
[05:42] <preaction> carajea1: okay, so we're getting closer now: what kind of sound card do you have? PCI or onboard?
[05:42] <pike_> null: remember. "everything is a window"
[05:42] <supaneko> Is there a way to specify how the ripped track is encoded on k3b?
[05:42] <MacDrunk> that was done on when i share the folders
[05:42] <carajea1> pci sound blaster audigy se version
[05:43] <preaction> carajea1: does it show up in "lspci"? (open a terminal, type "lspci" look for "creative sound blaster" or otherwise)
[05:43] <NemesisD> hey could one restore an image made with dd to a hard drive so that its bootable? could i just do dd if=/home/foo/bar.img of=/dev/sda1?
[05:44] <dalegribble> hi all, i'm trying to setup a static IP in a virtual ubuntu machine, and am getting 'SIOCSIFNETMASK: Invalid argument'
[05:44] <onebadmutha> Ubuntu will not load into X for me due to ancient but necessary video hardware.  I've tried several of the video options (vesa, vga, trident, etc) to only receive extremely nasty chunder on screen.  Thoughts on next steps?
[05:44] <carajea1> yes sir i see it in that list
[05:44] <dalegribble> i've never come across that before in debian or ubuntu
[05:44] <Jordan_U> NemesisD, If it includes the MBR, yes
[05:44] <preaction> onebadmutha: google for your hardware?
[05:45] <onebadmutha> yes, it's a Hualon ISA video card driving an internal *grin* 10" lcd
[05:45] <carajea1> 01:07.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Audigy LS....... is that it says
[05:45] <tmatix> null: you want to run a program in the X "root window"
[05:45] <preaction> carajea1: that'd be the one
[05:45] <onebadmutha> google shows one other user using a trident video card on windows and it working, but no mention of it working in a linux environment
[05:45] <MacDrunk> hey whats a nfs server???
[05:46] <dalegribble> weird thing is, i can ping IP addresses, but it won't resolve.  resolv.conf is set the same as my laptop and server
[05:46] <onebadmutha> network file system, used as an alternative to SMB or appletalk file sharing
[05:46] <kalpik> MacDrunk, nfs is the linux way of sharing files :)
[05:46] <sparr> MacDrunk: Network File System
[05:46] <PurpZeY> Anyone have experience w/ NTFS Configuration Tool not identifying other drives after a kernel upgrade...I'd done a similar fix before, I had to remove the drives for Fstab and also from one other location, but I can't seem to remember the other location.
[05:46] <sparr> meh, i prefer kioslave->sftp  :)
[05:46] <MacDrunk> only over linux
[05:46] <doms> #ubuntu-ph
[05:47] <NemesisD> Jordan_U, what if the source drive was like 20gb and we put it on a blank 40gb drive or something?
[05:47] <kalpik> MacDrunk, Unix actually.. dunno if it works with windows.. but i guess it should
[05:47] <preaction> MacDrunk: nfs is horrible, even samba is better for *nix to *nix filesharing
[05:47] <Jordan_U> NemesisD, I believe it would still work
[05:47] <MacDrunk> ok
[05:47] <m040> Does anyone know where the default installation directory would be for SLIME?
[05:47] <Nutubuntu> NemesisD - I think you'd end up with a 20GB partition, but you could grow it with parted
[05:47] <m040> I used apt-get
[05:47] <kalpik> m040, locate slime
[05:48] <m040> thanks
[05:48] <Shut> Eh.
[05:48] <Shut> What?
[05:48] <tritium> m040: dpkg -L <packagename> will list files in that package
[05:48] <tmatix> null: i know mplayer can draw on the root window with a command line argument, but i'm not sure how you'd get a web browser to draw there
[05:48] <NemesisD> Jordan_U, to run a consistency check on the image to make sure its not messed up would it be fsck -y foo.img?
[05:48] <l3> Hello all.
[05:48] <dawn_chorus> hi l3
[05:49] <onebadmutha> l3:  howdy
[05:49] <carajea1> ok so i checked all my sound stuff and everything is pointed to play out of that sound card
[05:49] <PurpZeY> Can someone tell me where my harddrives would be located in terms of data...as in, fstab for example...is there another location I need to remove them from in order for Ubuntu to re-recognize them?
[05:49] <little3lue> I have a question about issues ive been having since my last ubuntu update, most likely to do with new linux kernel update, sall I ask here?
[05:49] <Nutubuntu> !ask
[05:49] <onebadmutha> si
[05:49] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:49] <little3lue> Its a sound related issue
[05:50] <preaction> little3lue: sound blaster audigy?
[05:50] <little3lue> thanks, wanted to make sure its in the right forum
[05:50] <carajea1> ask away if its a sound issue because im having issues also
[05:50] <little3lue> no -- itd be on board sound, I have a Dell e1505
[05:50] <little3lue> intel chipset
[05:50] <preaction> carajea1: what does "uname -a" say?
[05:50] <onebadmutha> other interesting note on my hualon video angst, I can boot DamnSmallLinux, and it works fine..  so fluxbox will come up fine...
[05:51] <little3lue> Linux l3-laptop 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP Thu Jun 7 20:19:32 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[05:51] <MacDrunk> kalpik it wont work
[05:51] <carajea1> Linux Mighty-Mouse 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP Thu Jun 7 20:19:32 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[05:52] <little3lue> cara, was your sound working fine before kernel update?
[05:52] <preaction> carajea1, little3lue: did you start here? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[05:52] <kalpik> MacDrunk, hmm.. sorry then, wait for someone else..
[05:53] <carajea1> it was workign fine last night but im thinking it was not working before that update
[05:53] <little3lue> no, I did not, but it was all working fine before rebooting for new kernel, so I hopped on here to see if there is some problem thats known
[05:53] <MacDrunk> kalpik i follow the hole guide and my windows laptop keep asking me for a login and pass
[05:53] <kalpik> MacDrunk, though im pretty sure its something you are doing wrong
[05:53] <MacDrunk> hmm what if a uninstall samba and reinstall
[05:53] <MacDrunk> ??
[05:53] <supaneko> Can I rip and encode tracks in FLAC using k3b?
[05:53] <kalpik> MacDrunk, yes, and you have to enter the username and password you created!
[05:54] <kalpik> MacDrunk, that wont help.. its not windows you know ;)
[05:54] <MacDrunk> do i use synaptic to do that or manual unistall???
[05:54] <klrtmto> yes you can, supaneko: are you running gnome or kde?
[05:55] <MacDrunk> hmm well i dont know what else to do ill reedit the smb.conf file and see if i have a parameter missing i thik is that im doing wrong
[05:55] <pike_> MacDrunk: only reason i can think of to do that is to wipe the config files and it wont do that by default i think without the --purge switch
[05:55] <thmcmahon> MacDrunk: are you having problem with windows asking for a password when you are using samba?
[05:55] <carajea1> hey preaction i was unaware of that little guide im gonna run through it now to see if it helps
[05:55] <MacDrunk> yes
[05:55] <pike_> MacDrunk: might as well just sudo dpkg-reconfigure samba   rather than reinstall
[05:56] <thmcmahon> MacDrunk: i know how to fix that
[05:56] <little3lue> carajea1: things loaded from init.d that need to be as root, do those use sudo? there is a small chance i may have messed up my sudoers file for some users, not sure if that could have some effect.. cause my beryl was slightly iffy after kernel update, not sure what else will be
[05:56] <kalpik> MacDrunk, why are you modifying the smb.conf? you dont have to do that!
[05:56] <MacDrunk> hmm
[05:56] <MacDrunk> i wont kalpik
[05:56] <thmcmahon> MacDrunk: are you just on a home network?>
[05:56] <MacDrunk> i just say im going to read it
[05:56] <MacDrunk> yes thmc
[05:56] <preaction> carajea1: no, they don't use sudo. init is setuid root, and init runs those things
[05:56] <Flannel> little3lue: no, those don't use sudo.  Also, You should ALWAYS edit your sudoers through visudo.  If it breaks, you can use the recovery console (at GRUB) to fix it
[05:56] <thmcmahon> MacDrunk: do you see the "security" setting in smb.conf
[05:57] <tritium> little3lue: even better, don't edit sudoers at all.  Add and remove users to the admin group as necessary
[05:57] <MacDrunk> yes
[05:57] <thmcmahon> MacDrunk: whats it set to?
[05:58] <little3lue> I did use visudo
[05:58] <MacDrunk> but i see also another line i think i need to uncomment wins support
[05:58] <thmcmahon> MacDrunk: whats the security set to?
[05:58] <pike_> what is the rationale for that? its a text file. if it breaks you have to boot into single user shell anyway
[05:58] <tritium> little3lue: users are given sudo priveleges by adding them to the admin group
[05:58] <MacDrunk> hmm
[05:59] <little3lue> tritium : I didnt want to add/remove admins, I wanted to change the password supplied to sudo to root password instead of user password
[05:59] <MacDrunk> no see no security line
[05:59] <MacDrunk> hmm rare
[05:59] <thmcmahon> MacDrunk: i thought you said you saw it
[05:59] <Flannel> pike_: visudo won't let you save a broken file
[05:59] <little3lue> I also made some other modifications, which eventually meant my account couldnt use sudo, even tho im an admin
[05:59] <pike_> ah
[05:59] <little3lue> dont know how that happened
[05:59] <Flannel> pike_: that is, a syntactically broken file.  Logically, you could still break stuff (removing all powers from sudoers, or whatever)
[06:00] <MacDrunk> you mean authenticaion?
[06:00] <thmcmahon> MacDrunk: just a sec
[06:00] <carajea1> ok preaction i ran through it and for some reason everything still "seems" correct
[06:00] <MacDrunk> ok
[06:01] <thmcmahon> thmcmahon: type this from the command line "cat /etc/samba/smb.conf | grep security"
[06:01] <Lam__> !img
[06:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about img - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:01] <Lam__> i need a program to convert an .img file to .iso
[06:01] <thmcmahon> MacDrunk: then tell me what it says
[06:01] <MacDrunk> ok security set to user
[06:02] <thmcmahon> MacDrunk: thats what it says
[06:02] <Flannel> !iso | Lam__
[06:02] <ubotu> Lam__: 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.
[06:02] <MacDrunk> security = user
[06:02] <Lam__> Flannel: much thanks
[06:02] <thmcmahon> MacDrunk: change that user to "share"
[06:02] <thmcmahon> MacDrunk: type "sudo gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf"
[06:02] <thmcmahon> MacDrunk: then change it to share
[06:03] <MacDrunk> username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
[06:03] <MacDrunk> hmm
[06:03] <INT> how do i set up wifi wpa in terminal mode
[06:03] <MacDrunk> that didt work last time
[06:03] <thmcmahon> MacDrunk: you can fix the security later, this will at least make it work

[06:24] <eyemean> k cheers will look into it
[06:24] <Felarin> i installed zabbix but when i go to the web interface, i see text saying "NOT OK"
[06:24] <Felarin> does anyone know why?
[06:24] <tritium> logmein: :)
[06:24] <greenman> hi.  I need help.  How do I change LDFLAGS Environment variable?
[06:24] <tritium> !repeat | greenman
[06:24] <ubotu> greenman: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[06:26] <greenman> well I'm searching google and not finding anything.  I thought I would ask on here.
[06:27] <l3> hello again
[06:27] <preaction> greenman: export LDFLAGS=<newvalue>; # this will survive until the terminal is closed
[06:27] <lek> also wondering, I have ubuntu 6.10 installed, will it install 7.04 in time through the update manager or do I have to take some action?
[06:27] <eyemean> me again, is vmware good option for using winxp in ubuntu?
[06:28] <triumvir> eyemean: sure. parallels works pretty well too if you feel like paying fifty bucks
[06:28] <preaction> eyemean: if wine doesn't work or you need an actual OS, sure
[06:28] <Jordan_U> lek, Yes, it should give you the option in update-manager
[06:28] <little3lue> question: I want to run a command every time X starts, where should I place it? (related to xmodmap to remap mouse buttons)
[06:29] <INT> i check it out
[06:29] <INT> it says no dhcpoffers recieved
[06:29] <bruenig> little3lue, xinitrc perhaps
[06:29] <Jordan_U> little3lue, System -> Preferences -> Sessions
[06:29] <little3lue> i heard xinitrc is not used when using gdm
[06:29] <lek> Jordan_U, so I just have to wait
[06:29] <INT> no working leases in persistant database - sleeping
[06:29] <little3lue> Is there a way to do it not through the UI
[06:29] <eyemean> triumvir: 50 bucks for?
[06:30] <onebadmutha> eeek i'm being driven back to DSL oy!
[06:30] <eyemean> i thought vmware was free?
[06:30] <lek> Jordan_U, all right
[06:30] <greenman> preaction: thanks, I'll try that.
[06:30] <Jordan_U> lek, No, you can open System -> Administration -> Update Manager  and tell it to check for updates
[06:30] <triumvir> eyemean: www.parallels.com <- vmware alternative...better imo. you get what you pay for i suppose.
[06:30] <bruenig> little3lue, there certainly isn't, unless you count editing text files in gedit gui
[06:30] <lo4fe1> vmware free? where?
[06:30] <little3lue> I want to edit a text file..
[06:31] <Flannel> little3lue: everytime X starts?  or everytime you login?
[06:31] <preaction> little3lue: the ~/.xinitrc or ~/.xsession, barring that, there's no reason why adding it to the Gnome session startup programs won't work
[06:31] <Flannel> !startup | little3lue
[06:31] <ubotu> little3lue: 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
[06:31] <little3lue> Ive tried to add something to init.d but it wouldnt work
[06:31] <tmatix> vmware is free as in beer now?
[06:31] <weitzman> vmware player has been free for...a long time
[06:31] <little3lue> !boot
[06:31] <ubotu> Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto
[06:32] <tmatix> weitzman: i've seen that, but home much functionality does it give you?
[06:32] <tmatix> how, i mean
[06:32] <eyemean> thanx triumvir, will look into that, to be honest when u first stated parallel i thought u meant just run both systems in parallel which made no sense to me, lol
[06:32] <greenman> preaction: hmm...  I did that and it didn't work.  Maybe a bit of background.  I'm trying .configure and it's looking for libusb which lives in /lib.  I tried exporting LDFLAGS=-L/lib and that didn't work...  Any hints?  Thanks
[06:32] <Jordan_U> tmatix, You can also get vmware-server it's also free, you just have to register
[06:32] <eyemean> cheers though
[06:32] <triumvir> eyemean: sorry heh :)
[06:32] <weitzman> tmatrix: It lets you run images with network connectivity and CD access. Can't create them, sharing files requires being clever
[06:33] <eyemean> not ur fault, i should of asked
[06:33] <preaction> greenman: what does "echo $LDFLAGS" say?
[06:33] <eyemean> thanx again
[06:33] <triumvir> eyemean: np
[06:33] <greenman> preaction: -L/lib
[06:33] <weitzman> I actually run ubuntu in VMware 'cause the wireless card isn't recognized one one machine and the installer explodes in the other
[06:34] <weitzman> Incidentally, releasing an ubuntu with an installer known not to work with factory issue Dells with a known bugfix is lame
[06:34] <preaction> greenman: i don't know then, i don't normally compile anything
[06:35] <greenman> preaction: trying to get mtp working with amarok so I can use my mp3 player
[06:35] <tmatix> weitzman: that's... interesting... sorry to hear it
[06:35] <greenman> preaction: I don't normally either.
[06:35] <badsector> i'm interested in creating an IDE that follows the GNOME HID (which i would like to see in Ubuntu too)... however i wonder if there is anything like that out there so, is there anything i could use as a base or i should start from scratch? (anjuta is not an option)
[06:35] <greenman> preaction: how do you unexport?
[06:35] <weitzman> tmatrix: On the plus side, VMware works very well for me :)
[06:36] <tiiiam> badsector: there's something called geany
[06:36] <Victim_of_Glutto> does dell sell laptops with ubuntu pre-installed?
[06:36] <preaction> greenman: export LDFLAGS=""
[06:36] <preaction> Victim_of_Glutto: i think so, yes. some of their lower-end models iirc
[06:36] <void^> greenman: did you install libusb-dev and/or libusb++-dev ?
[06:36] <Victim_of_Glutto> thanks
[06:37] <Jordan_U> weitzman, What kind of wireless card ( chipset ) and what bug with a known fix?
[06:37] <greenman> void^: nope, I was just about to.  Gonna try and cover my bases
[06:37] <Dr_willis> Victim_of_Glutto,  they got a 888$ laptop or so with linux
[06:37] <Dr_willis> Victim_of_Glutto,  its customizeable
[06:38] <INT> how do i connect to access point in terminal mode
[06:38] <weitzman> Jordan_U: The wireless card that I can't get working is a proxim orinoco of some kind. I've tried ndiswrapper to no avail. The bug is mentioned here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=462733
[06:38] <greenman> void^: that was it.  Good idea.  :)
[06:39] <badsector> tiiiam: geany is nice, but it doesn't seem to have any kind of project management support
[06:39] <weitzman> Jordan_U: I could use the alternate install CD apparently, but I'll wait a little bit before I try it
[06:39] <badsector> or even a "run make" option
[06:39] <NeoGeo64> Help... how do I disable automatic updates?
[06:40] <sid> I have Ubuntu 5.10, what is the best way to upgrade to the latest?
[06:40] <INT> i do dhcliet eth1 but it keep saying no dhcpoffers received
[06:40] <greenman> I have instructions for Feisty and Edgy.  I'm on dapper, which instructions should I follow?
[06:40] <tiiiam> sid: download a Feisty CD and do a clean install
[06:40] <sldkfj> system/admin/update manager
[06:41] <tritium> tiiiam: that's not necessary
[06:41] <NeoGeo64> sldkfj, I'm there but theres no option to disable it.
[06:41] <Jordan_U> sid, You can either upgrade to Dapper then Edgy then Feisty or clean install keeping your /home
[06:41] <Michael_the_choi> what room would I go to to ask about word processing / page layout?
[06:41] <tiiiam> tritium: well its pretty easy
[06:41] <greenman> I'm guessing that feisty is after edgy and dapper, so I'll follow the instructions for edgy and see what happens...
[06:42] <noob> will feisty fawn install using a usb keyboard?
[06:42] <Jordan_U> noob, Yes
[06:43] <INT> noob if you motherboard has usb keyboard support
[06:43] <Dr_willis> ive had issues accessing the GRUB menu with usb keyboard on some of my machines. :(
[06:43] <cdubya> have a box running Dapper with a Canon BJC-4300 hooked up to it. I'm wondering if anyone has tried a similar printer and if so, if you've run into any issues with print size. The only size printout I seem to be able to get using the recommended driver is A4 (I think that's it.....it's the really narrow and tall one...)
[06:43] <noob> ah, ok, coz i have read on some post that they are having problems using  usb keyboard on ubuntu.
[06:43] <void^> grub needs usb keyboard support in bios, a running linux kernel doesn't.
[06:43] <Dr_willis> but thekeyboard works in bios and the actal OS. just not in grub. oddly enough
[06:44] <Dr_willis> I enable the legacy-usb support in bios.. and then the pc refuses to boot. :) guess its a flakey pc.
[06:44] <sldkfj> neogeo64, synaptic / settings / repositories
[06:44] <INT> anyone know how to connect to a wpa access point in termal mode?
[06:44] <noob> okay, i'm sure my my bios supports it,
[06:44] <noob> thanks
[06:44] <tmatix> weitzman: your proxim card should be supported natively with madwifi (madwifi.org)
[06:44] <weitzman> tmatrix: Well, I'll give it a shot. I've got nothing to lose
[06:45] <NeoGeo64> thanks it worked
[06:45] <stroyan> Michael_the_choi: Perhaps you want #scribus, (if you want to use scribus for page layout.)
[06:46] <eyemean> i've installed 7zip on ubuntu but for some reason i cant find it or use it to open .rar files
[06:46] <Michael_the_choi> thanks, stroyan.  That's actually what I'm trying to determine - which I want. ;-)
[06:46] <tiiiam> eyemean: sudo aptitude install rar unrar
[06:46] <docMuerto> re
[06:47] <Ubuzy> it is possible gnome to be installed on ubuntuserver by the livecd desktop?
[06:47] <Ubuzy> sorry for my inglish xP
[06:47] <INT> can i get the flgrx in termal mode if i download it to my flash drive?
[06:47] <eyemean> cheers tiiiam, works great
[06:48] <xerophyte> sometime gnu-screen does not accept any input does anybody know why ?
[06:48] <Shadbot> Hey everyone.
[06:48] <Shadbot> Testing my Eggbot.
[06:48] <lekremyelsew> hey
[06:48] <Frogzoo> anyone like to recommend a snmp browser? mbrowse is ok, but a bit ugly..
[06:49] <l3> WOOT! I solved my audio problem
[06:49] <scales11> hello all, how do i check which video driver i am using?
[06:49] <Michael_the_choi> grats, l3!
[06:49] <pike_> well first time ive done default ubuntu install in a while and i have to say it looks good
[06:49] <l3> thanks to whoever it was that sent me that last audio help. it didnt really help until the very end i read a small commend.. this bug is going down in the record books
[06:49] <berent> needed some orkut help
[06:49] <berent> anyone orkut expert here
[06:50] <l3> to those wondering: I tried adding myself to a group a day ago, instead of adding a group, i set it as my only one (usermod -G instead of -aG)
[06:50] <pike_> oh.. except for no getty because im stuck at 'running local scripts' and for some reason the tty files in /etc/event.d where screwed up
[06:50] <l3> this took me out of the audio group
[06:50] <sldkfj> scales11, Post this in a terminal and hit enter to find out the driver version:    glxinfo|grep "OpenGL version string"
[06:50] <l3> as well as a bunch of others , like admin, solving my sudo problem as well
[06:50] <stroyan> Ubuzy: No, The livecd doesn't really have any package files that you would need to add gnome after an ubuntuserver install.
[06:51] <l3> now i gotta figure out what else i removed myself from
[06:51] <badsector> tiiiam: thanks anyway, geany seems to be a good starting point :-)
[06:51] <Frogzoo> scales11: /var/log/Xorg.0.log will say
[06:51] <Frogzoo> scales11: but it's mentioned in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:51] <tiiiam> badsector: I mean, good luck trying to pry people away from vim and emacs
[06:52] <Goetmet> what's a good movie player to reproduce MOV Files ?
[06:52] <nbound> Okay guys how to i add a second optical drive
[06:52] <nbound> do*
[06:52] <badsector> tiiiam: people who want to stick with vim and emacs wouldn't need an IDE anyway :-)
[06:52] <Dev0205> Hello. Is anybody familiar with Nicotine Plus. I just downloaded it and it is stuck at the connecting screen. Is there a port I should open first?
[06:52] <Frogzoo> nbound: plug it in?
[06:52] <berent> needed some orkut help
[06:52] <berent> anyone orkut expert here
[06:53] <nbound> Frogzoo, *rolleyes* no shit
[06:53] <tonyyarusso> !ohmy | nbound
[06:53] <ubotu> nbound: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:53] <JDStone> berent: this is a ubuntu channel, not an orkut channel
[06:53] <badsector> tiiiam: personally i can't stand them (ok i can stand emacs, which i use in my laptop, but i can't use such an environment for big projects)
[06:53] <JDStone> BAN!
[06:53] <JDStone> lol
[06:53] <Frogzoo> nbound: no really, linux should pick it up from there
[06:53] <nbound> Frogzoo, well it didnt?
[06:53] <berent> JDStone : can you point a orkut channel pls
[06:53] <scales11> thanks all, it was using mesa, when it should be using ati
[06:53] <JDStone> berent: just screwing with you
[06:54] <Frogzoo> nbound: sata or ata?
[06:54] <tiiiam> badsector: yeah, I mean, I'd use an IDE if it was any good, but for now it's just vim and gmake
[06:54] <JDStone> I don't know.  by all means, ask all you want
[06:54] <nbound> ata
[06:54] <JDStone> berent: Orkut never really took off
[06:54] <Frogzoo> nbound: you get your master/slave jumpers correct?
[06:54] <tiiiam> badsector: but i hate looking at black text on a white background
[06:54] <nbound> Frogzoo, yep
[06:54] <tiiiam> badsector: hurts my eyes, and I spend most of the workday editing text
[06:55] <badsector> tiiiam: me too, that's why i use a custom syntax color scheme :-)
[06:55] <Frogzoo> nbound: tried inserting a disk?
[06:56] <nbound> hmmm... it recognises it kinda... imma go mess with my fstab
[06:56] <cdubya> Frogzoo, you check sourceforge for any alternatives to mbrowse?
[06:56] <Frogzoo> cdubya: am atm
[06:56] <cdubya> yeah, I saw a bunch
[06:57] <cdubya> so noone has setup any canon printers on ubuntu....? heh
[06:57] <Qq> hey um do we just throw questions out here and hope people answer them?
[06:57] <tiiiam> cdubya: I could never get mine to work
[06:57] <bruenig> canon is terrible for linux
[06:57] <bruenig> go get an hp
[06:57] <lekremyelsew> Qq pretty much
[06:58] <Qq> hot
[06:58] <cdubya> bruenig, unfortunately not an option right now
[06:58] <sapumal> what is the location the default postscript printer saves the files.
[06:58] <sapumal> ?
[06:58] <Frogzoo> nbound: shouldn't need fstab - leave it to hal
[06:58] <Frogzoo> nbound: look under /media/
[06:59] <tiiiam> cdubya: there's a site like turboprint.de, i got something there that let me print low quality
[06:59] <Qq> is there a default root password?
[06:59] <Frogzoo> nbound: alternatively, add a 'disk mounter' applet to your tool bar
[06:59] <tiiiam> Qq: it's disabled by default in Ubuntu
[06:59] <nbound> Frogzoo, ive deleted the second entry from my fstab (first was put in by ubuntu itself), gonna restart and see what it gives me... both drives work, but i only get one in Computer
[07:00] <Qq> so when i'm installing things, i don't have to worry about "logging into root"?
[07:00] <tiiiam> Qq: use sudo to execute commands with root priveledges
[07:01] <cdubya> tiiam, I used the driver that was loaded up with Dapper......and it prints.....just prints really small (like I said before, I think it's A4 size....condensed and tall.....
[07:01] <Shadbot> Yarr.
[07:01] <Qq> huh. ok thanks tiiiam
[07:01] <Shadbot> This eggbot is ALMOST working. If only I could SEE chat on this thing too.
[07:02] <TaRDy> any1 quick help me view the windows part of partition files?
[07:03] <Jordan_U> TaRDy, You mean view your ntfs partition?
[07:03] <bruenig> bizarre way of saying that
[07:03] <Jordan_U> !ntfs-3g | TaRDy
[07:03] <ubotu> TaRDy: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[07:03] <mercsta> hi guys i just setup a share from my ubuntu box which is an ntfs drive and all that is fine but the actual drive needs to be manually mounted on each reboot how do i make it automatic ???
[07:03] <TaRDy> sorry
[07:03] <bruenig> !fstab
[07:03] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[07:04] <tiiiam> cdubya: I never had any luck with the drivers that came with Ubuntu, I'd try and change size to letterpaper
[07:04] <cdubya> tiiam, did that....;)
[07:04] <cdubya> I think I may try the Turbo Driver
[07:04] <tiiiam> cdubya: that'll at least work decently until you can find a better solution
[07:05] <twiztr> So, I got a video card for my old p3 ubuntu box (it was running with the 8mb onboard card), and now i turn it on, it gets signal, shows the post,  but then i get a line saying its finding the aspiid or something, then it goes blank.
[07:06] <ted0> hi.  what does it mean if changes made with iwconfig (e.g. iwconfig ra0 essid linksys) are not applied when i iwconfig ra0?  can the graphical configuration tools "override" the command-line tools?
[07:06] <twiztr> All I know about the card is it's an older Dimond series.
[07:06] <gregorovius> Hi... I want to create a fresh feisty install alongside with my existing feisty partition... will the installer handle that (grub and all) or is there anything I should know?

[07:09] <unperson> I'd like to run an ftp server to occasionally serve files for a few friends.  I don't really want to have completely open, anonymous ftp access, but at the same time I also don't want to give them all shell accounts.  What's the best way of setting it up with something that's basically anonymous ftp but with some weak level of authentication?
[07:09] <confusednoob> well i just decieded to try a ubuntu live cd i had for sometime because fedora wouldnt run wine and im trying to see if wine will work before i switch distros
[07:09] <confusednoob> libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b
[07:09] <sldkfj> I'd change that entry in ubotu; anybody isn't what a person should be asking for, somebody is.  Anybody calsl for anyone even thsoe who aren't knowledgable in area of topic,  somebody would be.
[07:09] <bruenig> confusednoob, does it launch?
[07:10] <NeoGeo64> help.. im getting no sound from the mplayer plugin for firefox
[07:10] <unperson> One thought I had was if I could make it so that only one user could login, and then setup that user to be completely non-privileged (no shell, etc)

[07:18] <tonyyarusso> hey cdubya
[07:18] <nbound> Ok, 2nd dvd burner is still not visible in Computer. It does work if you put in a disk, but once ejected there is again no obvious way to access the drive
[07:19] <cdubya> long time....
[07:19] <tonyyarusso> Internet eternity.  Debian even made a release.
[07:20] <bullgard4> Is 'Genmask' in the output of 'netstat-r' an abbreviation? What stands it for?
[07:20] <cdubya> heh
[07:20] <mobutu> http://cbs5.com/local/local_story_163171126.html
[07:20] <Sparkz247> theres a file Libwnck18 that keeps erroring when trying to upgrade.. any help? Thanks!
[07:20] <confusednoob> pike my card isnt a radeon do them same instructions on that page still apply?
[07:20] <sldkfj> LvcisPveR, did you check the Preferences in the workspace switcher?
[07:20] <nbound> is there anyone here with a second optical drive?
[07:21] <LvcisPveR> sldkfj: yeah, there's where the problem comes from
[07:21] <LvcisPveR> sldkfj: it doesn't allow me to put more work spaces
[07:25] <Sparkz247> Theres a file Libwnck18 that keeps erroring when trying to upgrade.. any help? Thanks!
[07:25] <sldkfj> LvcisPveR, do you by chance run the Beryl Window Manager on your system?
[07:25] <LvcisPveR> no, i tried to install a desklets and produced a conflict with the one already installed in the bar
[07:25] <nbound> is it alright to add your own directory in media as mount point (or will it screw something up?)
[07:25] <LvcisPveR> i tried this but didn't work:
[07:25] <LvcisPveR> $ ls -R .gconf | grep workspace
[07:25] <LvcisPveR> workspace_switcher_screen0

[07:26] <cdubya> bullgard4, maybe this will help......looks like it's the same thing as netmask to me.....but I dunno for sure.  http://www.idevelopment.info/data/Networking/Networking_Basics/ROUTERS_Gateways_Routing_Table.shtml   You can see netmask here.....http://www.computerhope.com/jargon/n/netmask.htm

[07:27] <Sp4rKy> how can i change a word in http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi ?
[07:27] <bullgard4> cdubya: For me it looks the same as for you. But where is the name from taken?
[07:27] <Jordan_U> the_hammer, lspci
[07:27] <hatter> the_hammer, lspci
[07:27] <cdubya> bullgard4, not exactly sure.....I saw it referenced alot in Google hits.....but I'm not sure if the two terms are interchangeable......
[07:27] <incandenzian> I've managed to mess up the sound on Feisty Fawn - the only speaker currently putting out sound is the system beep.
[07:28] <Jordan_U> Sp4rKy, say !whatever is whatever, ( in a msg to ubotu ) it will be forewarded to ubuntu-ops
[07:28] <Sp4rKy> Jordan_U: thanks !
[07:28] <bullgard4> cdubya: man route(8): "Genmask: The netmask for the destination net;"
[07:29] <maeth> how come cedega runs games worse than wine native??
[07:29] <Jordan_U> Sp4rKy, np
[07:29] <cdubya> bullgard4, kewl, thanks......
[07:29] <Jordan_U> maeth, Because they are better at stealing code than creating it?
[07:29] <robert_> I'm trying to compile the latest nvidia driver for X, but it hates me
[07:30] <crdlb> robert_, why?
[07:30] <robert_> it thinks the kernel sources aren't where they are
[07:30] <cotyrothery> what is a good programe for recording my screen
[07:30] <Jordan_U> robert_, Why are you compiling the new nvidia drivers?
[07:30] <robert_> because the other nvidia drivers dont work for me
[07:31] <Jordan_U> robert_, Try envy
[07:31] <crdlb> robert_, what card?
[07:32] <sapumal> I cannot apt-get update most of the breezy servers are not working. Why is that?
[07:32] <maeth> how can i increase windows virtual memory swap on cedega??
[07:32] <crdlb> sapumal, breezy is unsupported
[07:32] <incandenzian> is there a way to pull up the Linux equivalent of Windows Device Manager to see if I've got an audio conflict?
[07:32] <Frogzoo> sapumal: is breezy still supported ??
[07:32] <sapumal> I don't know whether it is supported
[07:32] <Sparkz247> Theres a file Libwnck18 that keeps erroring when trying to upgrade.. any help? I've been trying to install beryl and it keeps erroring too.. I've already reinstalled ubuntu once.. Help please :)
[07:32] <noiesmo> robert_: this is the onliner i used for my card "sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r) linux-restricted-modules-common nvidia-glx-new nvidia-kernel-common" I have a 6600gt nvidia
[07:32] <crdlb> sapumal, end of life was this past april
[07:33] <crdlb> noiesmo, why didn't you use the restricted manager?
[07:33] <sapumal> oh! I need to go for a new version it seems.
[07:33] <Jordan_U> Frogzoo, No, it's not
[07:33] <Ubuzy> I need install gnome in server without internet... :S
[07:34] <noiesmo> crdlb: I use the commandline I don't like the gui for installig apps etc add/remove synaptic etc
[07:34] <crdlb> sapumal, yes at the very least, upgrade to dapper, which has 2 more years of support
[07:34] <Frogzoo> sapumal: tbh, just d/l feisty & do a clean install
[07:34] <Darkside> Hi: I have Ubuntu 7.04 installed in a Virtualbox VM, and it was working fine for a while, and now it hangs on boot (when the loading bat is about 20% across)
[07:34] <Sparkz247> Can people see me? lol
[07:34] <Frogzoo> Sparkz247: no
[07:34] <Darkside> i cannot get into recovery mode, it hangs before i get to a terminal
[07:34] <robert_> how do I tellGeForce 7300 LE
[07:34] <robert_> er
[07:34] <robert_> GeForce 7300 LE
[07:35] <noiesmo> crdlb: I know some of the things in my onliner should be picked up as dependancies but it will also indicat if the kernel they are running has the available its they need
[07:35] <Sparkz247> Any chance for some help?
[07:35] <sldkfj> incandenzian, is that the list in system / admin / system monitor / processes ?
[07:35] <Darkside> i cannot boot the live cd either, it hangs at exactly the same place as the normal one
[07:35] <bruenig> robert_, how do you tell?
[07:35] <bruenig> what does that mean
[07:36] <incandenzian> nah, that's like the Task Manager.
[07:36] <robert_> bruenig: I was going to say, "How do I tell what model graphics card I have?"
[07:36] <ShokThaSystom> How can I make it so icons are all the same size regardless of what they are? Reading online, everyone says to change the "Icon View Defaults" zoom level. But, that doesn't make all icons the same size.
[07:36] <robert_> but then I found it and forgot I asked :P
[07:36] <incandenzian> it just shows you what's running, not whether there's a device conflict.
[07:36] <robert_> or was about to, anyway
[07:36] <sldkfj> I forget what device manager is
[07:36] <bruenig> ah makes sense
[07:36] <sapumal> I heard upgrade to drapper is not that smooth
[07:36] <incandenzian> I installed a bunch of audio/video players, etc. from the Synaptic Manager and now I've got no sound.
[07:36] <incandenzian> :|
[07:36] <n2diy_> robert_: can you get to  terminal?
[07:36] <sldkfj> there is the system / prefs / sound
[07:36] <robert_> I can
[07:37] <incandenzian> yeah
[07:37] <incandenzian> I'm in there now.
[07:37] <noiesmo> incandenzian: some apps for some reason set the audio to mute
[07:37] <n2diy_> robert_: lshw
[07:37] <robert_> n2diy_: I found it already
[07:37] <incandenzian> maybe I should just try a good ole reboot?
[07:37] <noiesmo> incandenzian: wont unmute the sound
[07:37] <n2diy_> robert_: ad, ok.
[07:37] <n2diy_> ad/ah
[07:37] <incandenzian> won't?
[07:37] <incandenzian> hmm.
[07:38] <noiesmo> incandenzian: use alsamixer or another gnome gui for mixer and see what settings are
[07:38] <robert_> yeah
[07:38] <incandenzian> including 'autodetect', I have 8 options for Sound Playback in my dropdown.
[07:38] <robert_> ?
[07:38] <incandenzian> is it normal for the 'test' to just kind of hang?
[07:38] <robert_> er
[07:39] <robert_> is there a stable dual-core kernel out for Linux sandbox 2.6.20-15-386 #2 Sun Apr 15 07:34:00 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux?
[07:39] <robert_> er
[07:39] <darkshiryu> theres a ctrl alt supr for ubuntu when it get frozen?
[07:39] <robert_> yay concatonation
[07:39] <robert_> is there a stable dual-core kernel out for #2 Sun Apr 15 07:34:00 UTC 2007?
[07:39] <robert_> bah
[07:39] <robert_> is there a stable dual-core kernel out for 2.6.20-15-386?
[07:39] <robert_> there
[07:39] <kryp> how do you change the gnome-button for the menu?
[07:39] <void^> robert_: use the -generic kernel
[07:40] <sldkfj> incandenzian, try a check against mine, here'sa  screenshot:  http://www.speedyshare.com/137543752.html
[07:40] <robert_> hm k
[07:40] <incandenzian> thank sldkfj
[07:40] <incandenzian> :)
[07:40] <incandenzian> oops, I meant 'thanks'
[07:40] <MacDrunk> hello
[07:40] <sldkfj> ask if you need any more
[07:40] <n2diy_> Does anybody know how to enable an external cdrom on the printer port?
[07:41] <incandenzian> yeah
[07:41] <incandenzian> mine was just like that except the device is different.
[07:41] <noiesmo> incandenzian: is your sound working
[07:41] <incandenzian> nope.
[07:41] <darkshiryu> nobody knows an action like ctrl alt supr when ubuntu get frozen?
[07:42] <noiesmo> incandenzian: open a terminal and type "lsmod |grep snd" you should see a heap loaded then i would run alsamixer and turn ervthing up
[07:42] <robert_> brb
[07:42] <maeth> darkshiryu, ctrl + alt F(x) (x=one of the Fs) and enter user and pass and sudo shutdown now
[07:43] <robert_> launching a bx client so i can complain if there are problems heh
[07:43] <darkshiryu> ok thanks maeth
[07:44] <robert___> woot
[07:44] <incandenzian> noiesmo: thanks.
[07:44] <robert___> here we go
[07:44] <little3lue> Hello again. Question: Whenever I try to access my non linux partition it complains that only root has access, and I have to supply a root password.  This wasnt the case after my initial install, I must have messed something up, likely to do with groups. Any ideas?
[07:44] <zzco> a bit of a shorter name heh
[07:44] <incandenzian> I don't know what I/you just did, but it's cool.
[07:44] <incandenzian> still no sound though
[07:44] <incandenzian> haha
[07:44] <thmcmahon> little3lue: howd the sound go?
[07:44] <incandenzian> sorry to bother you guys.
[07:44] <little3lue> incandenzian: can you give me this output: groups
[07:44] <noiesmo> incandenzian: the lsmod |grep snd shows the sound modules loaded by kernel
[07:44] <Mapet> Hey!
[07:45] <n2diy_> little3lue: are you prefixing the command with sudo?
[07:45] <incandenzian> I guess I can just go back and uninstall all the stuff I've installed one by one until I get some sound?
[07:45] <Plantain> My system pops up with 'new updates' after only a few minutes from installing the latest 'new updates', is this normal, and how long is it likely to continue for?
[07:45] <noiesmo> incandenzian: alsamixer is a mixer that should allow you to turn on unmute sound etc
[07:45] <little3lue> thmcmahon: I fixed it! thanks!
[07:45] <thmcmahon> incandenzian: have you read the comp. sound guide?
[07:45] <Plantain> Or is that just the pace at which the packages are being update? o_O
[07:45] <thmcmahon> little3lue: np glad to have helped
[07:45] <little3lue> thmcmahon: I removed myself from the 'audio' group
[07:45] <not-again> I have 2 comps in need of attention: issue 1) I have an ethernet card (rtl8139) that (it seems) the drivers are not being loaded for. It shows up when I lspci, but won't ;kicj in'. It worked fine this morning, what do I do?
[07:45] <tyo> hai
[07:45] <not-again> oops 'kick in'
[07:45] <noiesmo> incandenzian: I really dont think uninstall sound apps will not unmute the sound or change anything
[07:45] <Plantain> not-again: Does it have an IP?
[07:45] <thmcmahon> incandenzian: http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Comprehensive_Sound_Problems_Solutions_Guide
[07:46] <incandenzian> incandenzian@Lynn-X:~$ groups
[07:46] <incandenzian> incandenzian adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev scanner netdev lpadmin powerdev admin
[07:46] <little3lue> ok
[07:46] <not-again> plantain: no, it does not seem to show up at all under the network configuration gui
[07:46] <little3lue> nvm then, earlier today i removed myself from audio group, and after a restart my sound wouldnt work
[07:46] <ShokThaSystom> How can I make it so icons are all the same size regardless of what type of file they are? Reading online, everyone says to change the "Icon View Defaults" zoom level. But, that doesn't make all icons the same size. (Ex: shortcut to sda1 is small, yet a PDF is huge). I don't want to scale all icons individually; I want them uniform in size.
[07:47] <thmcmahon> ShokThaSystom: i just turned off pdf previews
[07:47] <thmcmahon> ShokThaSystom: that stops the annoying big icon
[07:47] <SpeakerMania> I'm in Windows!
[07:47] <thmcmahon> SpeakerMania: woot!
[07:47] <Sakredei> hello all, i have a quick question..i am following a guide on setting up a driver for my wireless card and came to a point that says "find and uncomment these lines" but i'm not sure exactly what that means..
[07:47] <ShokThaSystom> thmcmahon: Where do I find that option?
[07:48] <SpeakerMania> Finally! I've been running checks for hours
[07:48] <thmcmahon> Sakredei: what that means is remove the # from in front of the line
[07:48] <thmcmahon> ShokThaSystom: i think it was in gconf just a sec i'll have a look
[07:48] <Sakredei> thank you!
[07:48] <thmcmahon> Sakredei: np :)
[07:48] <n2diy_> ! download
[07:49] <ubotu> Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[07:49] <incandenzian> noiesmo and thmcmahon: thank you very much.
[07:49] <noiesmo> incandenzian: np :)
[07:49] <incandenzian> I'm off to bed, I'll try again tomorrow. :)
[07:49] <n2diy_> Does anybody know how to enable an external cdrom on the printer port?
[07:50] <noiesmo> n2diy_: does this help http://cyberelk.net/tim/parport/paride.html
[07:51] <sldkfj> connecting a cdrom to a printer port sounds funny.
[07:51] <noiesmo> !parport
[07:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about parport - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:51] <thmcmahon> thmcmahon: np
[07:51] <thmcmahon> lol said that to myself
[07:51] <n2diy_> noiesmo: let me look.
[07:52] <not-again> does anyone know how I can get the driver loaded for a network card that only shows up when I lspci?
[07:52] <MonsieurBon> hello
[07:52] <not-again> ipcfg
[07:52] <not-again> oops
[07:52] <not-again> sorry
[07:52] <thmcmahon> ShokThaSystom: open gconf go to desktop > gnome > thumbnailesrs > application@pdf > and disable it
[07:52] <MonsieurBon> my laptop doesn't boot anymore... After Grub it hangs at "Loading, please wait..."
[07:53] <macd> I used resize_reiserfs, to shring a partition, but gparted shows the freed space as used space on the partition now, this doesnt seem like correct behavior, do I need todo something else to have the freed space become non partitioned space?
[07:53] <ted0> not-again: modprobe is the command to load kernel modules (which most drivers are)
[07:53] <noiesmo> not-again: sudo modprobe modulename
[07:53] <krinns> hi all
[07:53] <MonsieurBon> can anyone tell me what to do, so it boots again? I believe that it's the kernel update which caused this!
[07:53] <krinns> i have implement visudo
[07:53] <thmcmahon> MonsieurBon: try a diff kernel in grub
[07:53] <little3lue> what irc client are people using? im on bitchx and its not bad for a terminal client, wondering what other clients (ie w/ gui) ppl using
[07:54] <Shaddox> Does anyone know why I can't burn DVD's? I get a lot of input/output errors whenever I try to burn a DVD, but I can burn CD's without a problem.
[07:54] <n2diy_> noiesmo: this is going to be a long read, but it looks promising, thanks.
[07:54] <macd> little3lue: most people use xchat.
[07:54] <noiesmo> n2diy_: ;)
[07:54] <MonsieurBon> thmcmahon, as it was i minor kernel update, the older kernel is not there anymore
[07:54] <not-again> ok, lemme go try that (Thank you)
[07:54] <thmcmahon> MonsieurBon: there are no other versions?
[07:54] <noiesmo> MonsieurBon: is recovery mode not working
[07:54] <thmcmahon> little3lue: i use irssi (also cli)
[07:54] <ted0> little3lue: i'm actually playing around with bitchx right now, but i normally use GAIM, which is alright.
[07:54] <n2diy_> noiesmo: :)
[07:54] <yo2k_> Shaddox:  your cd support dvd?
[07:55] <macd> shh its not gaim its pidgin now
[07:55] <macd> aol may be watching
[07:55] <Shaddox> yo2k_ It's a DVDRW drive.
[07:55] <incandenzian> noiesmo, sldkfj, thmcmahon: holy crap I got it to work.
[07:55] <noiesmo> incandenzian: hoooray
[07:55] <incandenzian> you'll never guess what I had to do...
[07:55] <incandenzian> hahahaha
[07:55] <thmcmahon> incandenzian: haha awesome man well done :)
[07:55] <little3lue> Question: I keep getting "WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated!
[07:55] <thmcmahon> incandenzian: unmute it?
[07:55] <little3lue> when i use apt
[07:55] <noiesmo> incandenzian: what you do plug in the speakers
[07:55] <incandenzian> hahahhaha
[07:55] <thmcmahon> lol
[07:55] <incandenzian> it's weird, b/c I don't have any music files on this computer.
[07:55] <incandenzian> none at all.
[07:55] <MonsieurBon> thmcmahon, there is another ubuntu. That one boots fine. Recovery doesn't boot either. It hangs after "usb 5-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice"
[07:56] <incandenzian> I Just loaded in alot of different audio players and such because I'll be moving a large set of mp3s to this box...
[07:56] <Plantain> Probably a stupid question, but how do I change workspaces?
[07:56] <yo2k_> Shaddox:  dmesg
[07:56] <thmcmahon> Plantain: do you see the pager bottom right
[07:56] <yo2k_> Shaddox:  see what a problem...
[07:56] <thmcmahon> Plantain: use that
[07:56] <krinns> user ALL=(ALL)  /usr/bin/gnome-cups-manager
[07:56] <incandenzian> I hadn't even opened most of the programs I've installed in the last 24 hours.
[07:56] <incandenzian> anyway...
[07:56] <incandenzian> I started opening the various progs I installed...
[07:56] <incandenzian> xmms
[07:56] <Plantain> thmcmahon: Think I see it, but clicking it does nothing
[07:56] <incandenzian> was MUTED
[07:56] <krinns> but it seems that user is not able to open gnome with root privileges
[07:56] <krinns> any idea
[07:57] <incandenzian> I cranked it up and now I've got sound through www.purevolume.com
[07:57] <incandenzian> haha
[07:57] <incandenzian> thanks guys!
[07:57] <noiesmo> incandenzian: well fancy that I hate how some apps on install mute the sound its very frustrating
[07:57] <Plantain> Nevermind, figured it out
[07:57] <Plantain> (Only had one WS) :P
[07:57] <Shaddox> yo2k_: Nothing happens in dmesg when I try and burn.
[07:57] <incandenzian> I don't understand how one muted app would mute the system especially if I'd not loaded that program.
[07:57] <Plantain> hmm
[07:58] <Plantain> that seemed to crash Ubuntu
[07:58] <incandenzian> alas, the 'eccentricities' of Linux.
[07:58] <Plantain> the menubar suddenly started disappearing then appearing a few seconds later
[07:58] <Plantain> and now it's gone completely
[07:58] <n2diy_> Plantain: click on a workspace box in the the app row?
[07:58] <yo2k_> Shaddox:  what the last message ?
[07:58] <noiesmo> incandenzian: its in the install script for the package i believe
[07:58] <incandenzian> huh
[07:58] <incandenzian> well I've got a lot to learn.
[07:58] <Plantain> n2diy_: I don't have *anything* on my screen but the desktop picture now D=
[07:58] <incandenzian> where are you noiesmo?
[07:58] <Plantain> I guess I've crashed it XD

[07:58] <noiesmo> incandenzian: well your on the way
[07:58] <Shaddox> yo2k_: Standard bootup stuff. Swapfile init, filesystem mounting, that stuff.
[07:58] <noiesmo> incandenzian: brisbane aussie
[07:59] <incandenzian> awesome!
[07:59] <doseryder> Hello, can someone recommend a good audio (MP3) editing software?
[07:59] <thmcmahon> Plantain: have you got any unsaved work
[07:59] <not-again> how do I know what to modprobe for? is it in the output of lspci?
[07:59] <thmcmahon> doseryder: jokosher
[07:59] <incandenzian> I had plans to come visit your beautiful country...
[07:59] <Plantain> thmcmahon: No, but I'll read the logs before I restart (SSH)
[07:59] <n2diy_> Plantain: ok
[07:59] <doseryder> thx thmcmahon
[07:59] <incandenzian> until I saw 'Wolf Creek' last year.
[07:59] <yo2k_> Shaddox:  if burn a cd you can do it right?
[07:59] <incandenzian> hahaha
[07:59] <thmcmahon> Plantain: you can just restart x
[07:59] <noiesmo> incandenzian: lol
[07:59] <ted0> so i'm having problems with my rt2500 minipci wireless card.  iwconfig commands don't take.  i plugged in a pcmcia atheros card and it works fine.  what does it mean if a card doesn't respond to iwconfig commands?
[07:59] <Shaddox> yo2k_: Usually, yes.
[07:59] <thmcmahon> Plantain: by pressing ctrl-alt-backspace
[07:59] <ShokThaSystom> thmcmahon: (or anyone) ...How do I open gconf?
[07:59] <n2diy_> macd, no I haven't.
[07:59] <incandenzian> <--- Indiana, MIdwest, U.S.
[08:00] <yo2k_> Shaddox:  you use k3b or ..? to burn
[08:00] <thmcmahon> ShokThaSystom: press alt-f2
[08:00] <noiesmo> incandenzian: it's ok we dont watch any aussie tv shows they seem to suck well imo wife likes some of them
[08:00] <incandenzian> hah
[08:00] <thmcmahon> ShokThaSystom: type "gconf-editor" press ok
[08:00] <noiesmo> incandenzian: cool well if i ever come to states i'll let you know
[08:00] <MonsieurBon> thmcmahon, ok, after waiting very long it tells me: /dev/disk/by-uuid/<somelongnumber> does not exist. Dropping to a shell. So probably in menu.lst root=UUID=<thatlongnumber> is wrong?
[08:00] <incandenzian> haha
[08:00] <incandenzian> ok man
[08:00] <Plantain> thmcmahon: worked a treat, thanks
[08:00] <incandenzian> thanks again
[08:00] <noiesmo> incandenzian: but europes on my first list
[08:00] <Shaddox> yo2k_ Nautilus, and GnomeBaker both report the same errors.
[08:00] <incandenzian> g'gight.
[08:00] <incandenzian> g'night.
[08:00] <thmcmahon> Plantain: np
[08:00] <noiesmo> incandenzian: see ya
[08:01] <ShokThaSystom> thmcmahon: Ah. Thanks a lot.
[08:01] <thmcmahon> ShokThaSystom: np
[08:01] <yo2k_> Shaddox:  in redhat, i use k3b to burn cd/dvd, that is no problem... so sorry i can't help you...
[08:01] <nanotaboada> i'm backing up some files over ssh with scp but it's taking pretty much all my bandwidth, is there any way to modify the already started process?
[08:01] <Shaddox> yo2k_: Let me try k3b.
[08:01] <Plantain> thmcmahon: Well, it restarts X, but whenver I try and change workspaces I lose my menubars again :S
[08:01] <necro> hello
[08:01] <not-again> how do I know the module to probe for if I have a realtek 8139 ehternet card?
[08:02] <loos> Hi, I'm looking at the wiki page NetworkPrintingFromWinXP and it talks about how to set the printer port in 5.10 and 6.06 but not 7.04. Anyone know where the CUPS port is set?
[08:02] <thmcmahon> Plantain: are you using compiz or beryl
[08:02] <yo2k_> Shaddox: maybe you change the options to burn dvd...
[08:02] <n2diy_> nanotaboada: do you want to throttle back, so your can continue to surf the net, get email etc...?
[08:02] <Plantain> thmcmahon: uh... I haven't install either to my knowledge
[08:02] <nanotaboada>  n2diy_: yes, that's the idea, to ease it a bit
[08:02] <Plantain> Just running default Ubuntu 7.04 install
[08:03] <noiesmo> not-again: should be 8139too
[08:03] <thmcmahon> Plantain: so when you click on a diff work space it just hangs?
[08:03] <MonsieurBon> thmcmahon, can I reinstall grub somehow to correct that UUID?
[08:03] <dga> i have the sun jdk and jre installed but about:plugins in firefox doesn't show the java plugin. how do i enable it?
[08:03] <nanotaboada> loos: what printer do you have?
[08:03] <thmcmahon> MonsieurBon: sorry man I'm not sure, google and have a read
[08:03] <Plantain> thmcmahon: I can still navigate folders etc, and all my open applications are there (i.e., it does change the workspace), but my menubar and application bar just... disappear
[08:03] <not-again> right on, lemme try it
[08:03] <little3lue> Plantain: you dont need to install them to run them, did you enable desktop effects through settings?
[08:03] <n2diy_> nanotaboada: check the man page for scp, you can do it wit wget, but I don't know about scp.
[08:03] <Plantain> little3lue: Yes I did/have
[08:03] <loos> nanotaboada: Brother HL-1850. Already installed locally, just want to print from my XP box
[08:03] <thmcmahon> Plantain: hmm its crashing them, try removing the workspace applett then adding it again
[08:03] <necro> anyone experienced with nvidia prop. drivers?
[08:04] <n2diy_> wit/with
[08:04] <Plantain> But I've since disabled that because I though that might be the problem
[08:04] <thmcmahon> necro: little bit
[08:04] <Plantain> thmcmahon: Huh? How do I remove the applet?
[08:04] <nanotaboada> n2diy_: okay, thanks much!
[08:04] <thmcmahon> Plantain: the power of right click :)
[08:04] <Plantain> and what log would it go to?
[08:04] <n2diy_> nanotaboada: GL~
[08:04] <thmcmahon> Plantain: log?
[08:04] <ted0> is there another support channel for ubuntu?  or maybe one more specific to wireless extenstions?
[08:04] <Plantain> thmcmahon: Wouldn't the crash be logged somewhere?
[08:04] <nanotaboada> loos: would you like to share it with samba? like a network printer?
[08:04] <wildschwein> does anyone know of any ubuntu software that works with eBay.. kind of like the equivalent to Turboseller??
[08:05] <thmcmahon> Plantain: could be yes, where, i dont know :)
[08:05] <thmcmahon> wildschwein: like a sniper?
[08:05] <loos> nanotaboada: That would be okay too, but I figured that cups would allow me to access it via an IP address
[08:05] <little3lue> thmcmahon: quickly, if I am running beryl, can I get a workspace switcher plugin going? the GNOME one doesnt work.  Google says Beryl used to not have one avail, but was in the works.
[08:05] <loos> nanotaboada: like http://192.168.1.7/printers/myPrinter
[08:05] <not-again> ok, and that should do it? get my card to get in gear?
[08:05] <wildschwein> also, does anyone know of or recommend ubuntu-compatible point of sale software..? something that will allow me to catalogue all my stock at my small business, allow me to keep track of sales.. print invoices, etc..?
[08:06] <wildschwein> thmcmahon - what's a sniper?
[08:06] <thmcmahon> little3lue: yeah you can just switch through on  abig 3d cube thing its pretty cool
[08:06] <Plantain> little3lue: So, which would I be running then, Compiz or beryl? Like I said, I didn't install anything o_O
[08:06] <thmcmahon> wildschwein: you know to bid in the last seconds of an auction
[08:06] <little3lue> thmcmahon: oh yeah I do, i just want the preview in the taskbar
[08:06] <nanotaboada> loos: honestly i've always done the share with samba, specially if windows clients are involved
[08:06] <sivaji_> is there any separate kernel  module to loaded to detect dvd in kubuntu
[08:06] <thmcmahon> Plantain: prolly neither they're still quite unstable
[08:07] <Plantain> thmcmahon: So... which one is turned on when I turn on desktop effects?
[08:07] <noiesmo> sivaji more info please
[08:07] <wildschwein> thmcmahon: yes, sort of.. but also something that will allow me to work on item listings while i'm offline, allowing me to save them and then submit them when i connect to the net.
[08:07] <thmcmahon> Plantain: compiz
[08:07] <noiesmo> sivaji are you wanting to play a dvd movie
[08:07] <Plantain> Okay, thanks
[08:07] <thmcmahon> wildschwein: try jbidwatcher
[08:07] <thmcmahon> wildschwein: not sure of the link
[08:07] <noiesmo> !dvd | sivaji
[08:07] <ubotu> sivaji: 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
[08:07] <wildschwein> if nothing like that is available, then i'd be interested to know if anyone has had success getting turboseller to run on ubuntu - perhaps through xoveroffice or wine?
[08:07] <thmcmahon> wildschwein: thats what i use and its nice
[08:07] <not-again> so I should be able to "sudo modprobe 8139too" then reboot, and I have a working realtek ethernet?
[08:08] <shane_> hi
[08:08] <wildschwein> you use that on ebay?? do you run a business using it, or just personal sales?
[08:08] <thmcmahon> wildschwein: just personal sales
[08:08] <nanotaboada> loos: either way, try this: System > Administration > Printing
[08:08] <noiesmo> not-again: it will not load on reboot you will need to add it to /etc/defaults/blah not 100% sure
[08:08] <wildschwein> ah ok. i'll look it up. thanks :)
[08:08] <thmcmahon> wildschwein: good luck
[08:08] <nanotaboada> loos: right-click your printer
[08:08] <shane_> was wondering if I could get some help?
[08:08] <noiesmo> not-again: you can run "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" to try it without reboot
[08:08] <shane_> with networking issue
[08:08] <sivaji_> is there any separate kernel  module to loaded to detect dvd in kubuntu  my system never detect dvd disk ple tell me

[08:09] <ubotu> shane: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[08:09] <n2diy> ! ask | shane
[08:09] <nanotaboada> loos: in the connection tab, you should have the "network printer" option
[08:09] <ubotu> shane: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:09] <pavs> slightly off-topic I have got a beaver inside the house, how do I get rid of it? "sudo pkill beaver" doesn't work (Seriously I really have a beaver inside my houseupstairs bathroom, it's huge and I am scared ). :(
[08:09] <shane_> ok

[08:09] <loos> nanotaboada: I do, but I have the printer connected to the ubuntu box locally, I want the XP printer to use it as a network printer.
[08:09] <shane_> I cant connect my 2 pcs over my wireless netowkr
[08:09] <Plantain> thmcmahon: Any idea how I might add more compiz effects than are currently on the list?
[08:09] <pavs> I am scared to even go close to it
[08:09] <thmcmahon> shane_: is your wireless card supported
[08:09] <loos> nanotaboada: Right now it says Local, should I change it to Netowrk?
[08:10] <thmcmahon> Plantain: for that you should install beryl it has more plugins
[08:10] <shane_> its working i can connect to the web
[08:10] <wildschwein> pavs: roflmao
[08:10] <thmcmahon> Plantain: its got crazy amounts of plugins
[08:10] <not-again> ok, strange things are happening on the comp when it boots
[08:10] <nanotaboada> loos: yes, try that, then it should be visible on your local network
[08:10] <pavs> dammit, should i call 911?
[08:10] <necro> I need some help switching screen resolutions with the nvidia prop. driver.  Anyone?
[08:10] <n2diy> shane_:  describe the network to us.
[08:10] <shane_> the desktop is 64 bit this laptop is 32 bit
[08:10] <thmcmahon> pavs: no not for a beaver lol
[08:10] <shane_> ok
[08:10] <sldkfj> Plantain, ask in #Ubuntu-effects .....they handle compiz related questions
[08:10] <thmcmahon> pavs: thats like a job for a pest exterminator
[08:10] <not-again> "no rescue image, doing normal boot" Hang....hang...hang...
[08:10] <pavs> should I make a trail of peanuts.
[08:10] <Plantain> sldkfj: Okay
[08:10] <shane_> its a Dlink vonage wouter for VOIP service
[08:10] <wildschwein> pavs: maybe ask a neighbour for help?

[08:11] <pavs> window closed but doors open
[08:11] <shane_> the desktop is cat5 to the router
[08:11] <thmcmahon> pavs: whats the matter pavs, you not used to getting any beaver in your house ;)
[08:11] <necro> nano: I switched from the standard nv driver to nvidia's nvidia driver.

[08:12] <infamy> is there an easy way to restore the default top panel in gnome? i removed it by mistake
[08:12] <shane_> i want to share folders
[08:13] <shane_> on the network
[08:13] <MonsieurBon> thmcmahon, it was the UUID. Somehow that kernel update did change it. I changed it back to what ls -la /dev/disk/by-uuid told me what the partitions UUID was. Everything fine again. Pretty weird kernel update though!
[08:13] <pavs> not used to at all, I have never seen a beaver so big. I forgot to close door when I got home , and it just walked in, when it saw me it got frigthened and went to me bathroom, now it wont get out
[08:13] <thmcmahon> infamy: cllick your bottom panel, and go to new panel
[08:13] <shane_> u know what i mean?
[08:13] <noiesmo> !samba | shane_
[08:13] <ubotu> shane_: 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
[08:13] <wildschwein> pavs: get yourself dressed in a long sleeved shirt, long pants and shoes, and preferably gloves.. then get a large dark sheet (i.e. the type you'd use on your bed) and approach it slowly.. chuck the sheet over it and then quickly wrap it up. then either chuck it out the window or take it downstairs & outside. thats all i can think of :P
[08:13] <thmcmahon> pavs: lol pavs ok
[08:13] <pavs> sorry for the off topic

[08:14] <necro> Nothing but 1280x1024's in there, yet here I am at 800x600.
[08:14] <nanotaboada> necro: or you want to change resolutions sort of interactively?
[08:14] <wildschwein> how big are beavers? i live in australia. lol. so i have no idea.
[08:14] <infamy> thmcmahon: yeah i put a new top panel.. but it is not the default one.. with all the icons.. how can i get the original one back?

[08:14] <wildschwein> ohh ok
[08:14] <wildschwein> :/ sounds scarey
[08:14] <necro> Guess I'll try this envy.
[08:14] <wildschwein> if it was a wombat i wouldnt go near it
[08:14] <wildschwein> i'd piss my pants

[08:14] <coNP> Hey, is it possible to open a .cdr (Corel Draw) file?
[08:15] <noiesmo> necro: you can add these two lines to xorg.conf under section monitor     HorizSync       30.0 - 72.0     VertRefresh     50.0 - 120.0
[08:15] <necro> I did that.

[08:16] <wildschwein> pavs: maybe a sheet wouldnt be strong enough. maybe a blanket would be better. especially if they bite.
[08:16] <thmcmahon> shane_: just type for example "shane_" before you reply
[08:17] <yo2k_> shane_: like this...
[08:17] <pavs> oh thanks... esp if they bite... :(

[08:17] <wildschwein> well if its anything like a wombat, then i'd personally use a blanket
[08:17] <n2diy> shane_: now you got it!!
[08:17] <shane_> did it work?
[08:17] <sldkfj> beavers biggest threat to man are the damming of rivers and lakes with their huts,  they wouldn't be attacking, their first line of defense is to flee
[08:17] <n2diy> shane_: now you got it!!
[08:17] <loos> nanotaboada: Looks like all I had to do was enable global sharing under the Global Settings menu option

[08:39] <sldkfj> flowingfire, Right click the Beryl Icon and select the second entry 'Emerald Theme Manager' when it opens there will be two tabs at the top, you want the 'Emerald Settings' tab, find the entry 'Titlebar Dbl-Click Action' click the dropdown box and select.
[08:39] <nanotaboada> Shaddox: check this
[08:39] <jeff2> can dpkg -i install a package's dependencies also?

[08:43] <shanerdaner1> n2diy: i ping on both PC's

[08:44] <sldkfj> moustafa, right click the taskbar and select -add to panel and when the window opens select Desktop&Window / Window List
[08:44] <moustafa> no

[09:23] <SidStudios> maybe it runs on a FAT partition

[09:23] <SidStudios> that's why it works through windows
[09:23] <SidStudios> im not sure though

[09:23] <logmein> http://getswiftfox.org/ this site sucks it doesn't say how to remove it :P
[09:23] <meenfreem> SidStudios, but those are  codecs... the sound is working, just not through the Acer monitor speakers
[09:23] <livingdaylight> agn0stic, i'm curious now to identify the particular avi that is missing though... I
[09:24] <HowardTheCoward> the FAT filesystem doesn't support POSIX file permissions
[09:24] <n2diy> shanderdanerl:  yep.on pont 22. Share what?
[09:24] <Seiyajin> supposedly it's a windows installer for some linux dist

[09:26] <HowardTheCoward> Seiyajin: probably this: http://goodbye-microsoft.com/
[09:26] <agn0stic> livingdaylight: from a terminal. you might have to install mplayer as well. Alternatively, you could just install every codec you can find

[09:37] <crimsun> np
[09:37] <pavs> logmein kool, thanks.
[09:37] <livingdaylight> ok, so.... agn0stic i download all codecs but Totem still don't play it. Mplayer either... but VLC yes
[09:37] <nanotaboada> desiretosee: or eventually you'd still intall it using Automatix http://www.getautomatix.com/
[09:37] <desiretosee> ok! but I am a nube, may I keeping asking when I got problem
[09:38] <_bud> n2diy,shanderdanerl1 signed out while ago...
[09:38] <nanotaboada> desiretosee: a nube as in a cloud?
[09:38] <NeoGeo64> Is there any ALT+TAB like utility for gnome?
[09:39] <desiretosee> nanotaboada, newbie, I mean
[09:39] <MasseR> NeoGeo64: Uhm, it's on by default?
[09:39] <logmein> NeoGeo64: dunno but there is one for xfce
[09:39] <NeoGeo64> when im playing a game in fullscreen i cannot minimize the window or work outside of it to do things like answer ims and adjust volume
[09:39] <MasseR> Or what kind of are you searching
[09:39] <nanotaboada> desiretosee:  me too
[09:39] <agn0stic> livingdaylight: got no clue. try this: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_Multimedia_Codecs
[09:39] <NeoGeo64> whats the jey combanation for it?
[09:39] <NeoGeo64> key*
[09:39] <livingdaylight> it looks like VLC is the one player to rule 'Em ALL
[09:39] <MasseR> livingdaylight: Nope, mplayer is ;)
[09:40] <agn0stic> masser: yes
[09:40] <logmein> they both can't get their codecs right so who cares (totem here)
[09:40] <n2diy> ! download
[09:40] <ubotu> Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[09:41] <livingdaylight> MasseR, dude Mplayer couldn't play my avi superman film i downloaded but VLC is the only player that could
[09:41] <agn0stic> livingdaylight: that's because vlc  uses it's own codecs . .. kinda.
[09:41] <logmein> livingdaylight: totem ;)
[09:41] <necro> living: that's cuz VLC uses it's own internal codecs I believe.  VLC can even play incomplete files.
[09:42] <necro> heh
[09:42] <HowardTheCoward> mplayer can too
[09:42] <MasseR> livingdaylight: That owuld be because you didn't download mplayer codecs :)
[09:42] <HowardTheCoward> -framedrop helps a lot
[09:42] <logmein> vlc isn't open source though is it?
[09:42] <MasseR> logmein: It is
[09:42] <livingdaylight> MasseR, ok, tell me then
[09:42] <livingdaylight> MasseR, i will try again
[09:42] <logmein> MasseR: well I'll check into it then

[09:44] <tonsofpcs> ?
[09:44] <livingdaylight> MasseR, in synaptic all i saw for Mplayer was mplayer-nogui (the ultimate mplayer?)

[09:47] <livingdaylight> MasseR, well, i figure i need w32codecs anyways... also you giave me two links for mplayer(which i already have installed by the way) so i wasn't sure
[09:47] <nanotaboada> MasseR: oh, *blush*
[09:47] <MasseR> livingdaylight: I gave you a link for codecs, the first one was the 'essential' and the second one is 'all' which surprise surprise should have all the codecs
[09:47] <livingdaylight> weird Synaptic couldn't fetch w32 codecs but now in command line sudo apt-get install w32codecs worked
[09:48] <maeth> how do i zoom in on xgl with beryl??

[09:55] <HowardTheCoward> SidStudios: i didn't know mirc was ported to linux
[09:55] <MasseR> HowardTheCoward: It isnt
[09:56] <MasseR> +'
[09:56] <SidStudios> im not using MIRC
 :P
[09:56] <SidStudios> wait
[09:56] <SidStudios> im not on linux
[09:56] <SidStudios> that's what i was meant to say
[09:56] <SidStudios> Im on Windows
[09:56] <HowardTheCoward> blasphemer
[09:56] <pavs> lol
[09:56] <nanotaboada> lol
[09:56] <pvt_harv> SidStudios: mIRC on linux is the best joke ive ever heard. ur funny sid
[09:56] <nanotaboada> *beep*
[09:56] <MasseR> pvt_harv: I've used mirc on linux <.<
[09:57] <livingdaylight> agn0stic, check it out... Totem playes it now... despite installing all the codecs it wasn't working... this intrigued me... i installed totem-xine which replaced gstreameer and now it works too. So now Totem works and VLC
[09:57] <thmcmahon> SidStudios: i'll let you in on a little secret. noone here is on linux!
[09:57] <MasseR> pvt_harv: I knew one who installed mirc on linux deliberately
[09:57] <pvt_harv> MasseR: through wine i guess?
[09:57] <SidStudios> i dont use Linux
[09:57] <MasseR> pvt_harv: Yep
[09:57] <nanotaboada> SidStudios: i am!
[09:57] <livingdaylight> HowardTheCoward, dude Totem works for me now just by clicking on my movie
[09:57] <thmcmahon> nanotaboada: shhhh....
[09:57] <livingdaylight> HowardTheCoward, all i gotta do is click
[09:57] <pvt_harv> MasseR: well, that's good...
[09:57] <HowardTheCoward> livingdaylight: mplayer works for me the same, so what does it prove?
[09:57] <MasseR> pvt_harv: I wanted to hit him <.<
[09:57] <nanotaboada> thmcmahon: why?
[09:57] <agn0stic> livingdaylight: yes, that's because you're using a different engine, that uses different codecs
[09:58] <pavs> where is rutebook?
[09:58] <pvt_harv> MasseR: who you wanna hit?
[09:58] <thmcmahon> nanotaboada: lol jk
[09:58] <MasseR> pvt_harv: My friend who installed mirc deliberatly
[09:58] <nanotaboada> thmcmahon: lol ok
[09:58] <MasseR> He is then again turned to irssi but even still
[09:58] <MasseR> *he has since then
[09:58] <pvt_harv> MasseR: lol!
[09:58] <SidStudios> whats so bad about MIRC?
[09:58] <nanotaboada> thmcmahon: it was like, can't i be proud?
[09:58] <maeth> k found it :D
[09:58] <maeth> thanks guys anyways
[09:58] <nanotaboada> SidStudios: what's mirc? lol
[09:59] <john> This is my ubuntu desktop vedio: http://v.blog.sina.com.cn/b/4403786-1298710774.html
[09:59] <livingdaylight> agn0stic, so it wasn't the codecs that were the issue perhaps but the engine i needed to switch ovwer to
[09:59] <MasseR> SidStudios: Nothing, it's the best client in windows
[09:59] <thmcmahon> nanotaboada: haha for running linux on #ubuntu, surely not! /sarcasm
[09:59] <SidStudios> MIRC is a IRC client on windows
[09:59] <MasseR> But it is far from being the ultimately best client
[09:59] <thmcmahon> irssi ftw!
[09:59] <SidStudios> what is the best client?
[09:59] <n2diy> shanderdanerl: still here?
[09:59] <MasseR> Irssi \o/
[09:59] <HowardTheCoward> MasseR: the best in terms of virus spreading maybe
[09:59] <MasseR> At least for me
[09:59] <SidStudios> IRSSI?
[09:59] <SidStudios> what's that?
[09:59] <pvt_harv> SidStudios: i got Konversation
[09:59] <thmcmahon> its an irc client
[09:59] <nanotaboada> SidStudios: what about a factoid-this-is-a-linux-channel
[09:59] <SidStudios> oh
[09:59] <MasseR> SidStudios: www.irssi.org
[10:00] <SidStudios> haha
[10:00] <pvt_harv> SidStudios: for me its the best... mIRC is synonymous to viruses
[10:00] <SidStudios> theres like ten people going like "SidStudios:"
[10:00] <agn0stic> livingdaylight: it's a bit complicated. google and read if you want to understand the whole engine/codec/playing videos thing
[10:00] <SidStudios> no
[10:00] <SidStudios> linux is bad
[10:00] <SidStudios> its only good when you are forced to use free things or buy expensive thigns
[10:00] <thmcmahon> lol what
[10:00] <SidStudios> i prefer using Photoshop
[10:00] <SidStudios> than gimp
[10:01] <thmcmahon> haha ok
[10:01] <pavs> ok trool, can no one else smell it?
[10:01] <thmcmahon> pavs: howd you go with that beaver

[10:09] <SidStudios> lmfao
[10:10] <SidStudios> im using a linksys router
[10:10] <SidStudios> windows xp
[10:10] <doseryder> nanotaboada, I'm checking to see if its in my repo.  I'm prolly gonna give that one a shot.  :>
[10:10] <cotyrothery> once i get done installing wow with wine is there anything else i need to do
[10:10] <void^> linksys routers are linux based
[10:10] <SidStudios> Dont belive me?

[10:10] <Myrtti> !offtopic | SidStudios
[10:10] <Madpilot> People, can we take the non-support chat to #ubuntu-offtopic, please?
[10:10] <ubotu> SidStudios: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[10:10] <Azzkikr> cotyrothery: try executing the wine executable to see if its working
[10:10] <SidStudios> sorry
[10:10] <SidStudios> !offtopic | Myrtti
[10:10] <ubotu> Myrtti: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[10:10] <cotyrothery> well im not done yet im just wondering what i do after im done
[10:11] <Hobbsee> perhaps that way, SidStudios can learn how to behave in a channel
[10:11] <nanotaboada> doseryder: i use it often, good luck
[10:11] <Azzkikr> cotyrothery: if you installed it, you can run winecfg to configure wine for certain applications
[10:11] <Azzkikr> cotyrothery: that's basically all
[10:11] <cotyrothery> ok
[10:11] <cotyrothery> how do i run winecfg
[10:11] <Azzkikr> cotyrothery: open a terminal, and type:  winecfg
[10:12] <cotyrothery> alright
[10:12] <cotyrothery> should i wait until im doen installing wow
[10:12] <Azzkikr> or press alt+f2, then winecfg

[10:12] <pavs> ok anyone know what rutebook does? I just installed it, am I expecting some kind of doc or something somewhere?
[10:13] <nonZero> Hi!  is there a way to set default size for the Open/Save dialog box?  (I'm on Feisty)
[10:13] <erUSUL> nonZero: maybe trough gconf-editor ??
[10:13] <nanotaboada> pavs: never tried, i'm sure the man page or google are way more versed than me on that
[10:14] <Azzkikr> pavs: rutebook --help perhaps?
[10:14] <desiretosee> nanotaboada, seems like I can not fix it
[10:14] <pavs> bash: rutebook: command not found
[10:14] <nanotaboada> desiretosee: what are you trying to fix?
[10:15] <nonZero> erUSUL: yes, but which setting?
[10:15] <erUSUL> pavs: afaics it is just a book...
[10:15] <nanotaboada> pavs: maybe it has only info pages
[10:15] <pavs> someone here suggested this to me i dont even know what it is, some kindoff book
[10:15] <desiretosee> nanotaboada, I tried to change the source list and still can not install acroread
[10:16] <pavs> brb, look it up on google
[10:16] <nanotaboada> pavs: http://packages.debian.org/unstable/doc/rutebook
[10:16] <agn0stic> pavs: it's in /usr/share/doc i think
[10:16] <erUSUL> pavs: http://rute.2038bug.com/node4.html.gz#SECTION00410000000000000000
[10:16] <nanotaboada> pavs: perhaps #ubuntu+1 ?
[10:16] <nanotaboada> desiretosee: have you tried with Automatix?
[10:17] <desiretosee> nanotaboada: now I can even not find this package anymore
[10:17] <Madpilot> desiretosee, acroread is in Multiverse
[10:17] <Madpilot> !info acroread
[10:17] <ubotu> Package acroread does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[10:17] <Madpilot> huh?
[10:17] <pavs> found it
[10:17] <crimsun> Madpilot: no, it was removed early in feisty.
[10:17] <CheshireViking> !automatix | nanotaboada desiretosee
[10:17] <ubotu> nanotaboada desiretosee: 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
[10:17] <Madpilot> crimsun, hadn't realized...
[10:17] <pavs> in /usr/share/doc/rutebook
[10:17] <crimsun> Madpilot: there's talk of it going to -commercial, but I'm not privy to that convo.
[10:17] <nanotaboada> CheshireViking: thanks
[10:17] <john> This is my ubuntu desktop vedio: http://v.blog.sina.com.cn/b/4403786-1298710774.html
[10:18] <pavs> thanks everyone
[10:18] <desiretosee>  nanotaboadahow? I see just colorful website and difficult to find a trace
[10:18] <nanotaboada> desiretosee: are you familiar with package management?
[10:19] <desiretosee>  nanotaboada not at all
[10:19] <p0windah> morning, I have a cruious problem with gdm - when my machine initially boots, gdm attempts to start, but the video does not initialise(blank black screen), but if I manually restart gdm then the video can be initialised I have an nvidia video card, running on feisty
[10:19] <nanotaboada> desiretosee: but as you might have read it's discouraged
[10:19] <desiretosee>  nanotaboada I just follow the description and do what it says
[10:19] <pavs> wow 660 pages book... I better get start reading if I want to finish by tomorrow morninig
[10:19] <desiretosee>  nanotaboada yes I have read it
[10:20] <desiretosee>  nanotaboada so what can I do
[10:20] <desiretosee> Madpilot I can not find it now
[10:21] <hiyah> anyone knows why is it that when i type exit after logging in as root, it will show "INIT: no more process to run in this runlevel" and hang there.. i couldn't type or do anything..but i can log in remotely only
[10:21] <babo> guys, how do I get my apache server to start on boot up ?
[10:21] <Madpilot> desiretosee, apparently it was removed, and I hadn't realized. Not even sure if I've got it installed now, actually...
[10:21] <natsumey_> babo : update-rc
[10:21] <nanotaboada> babo: how did you installed apache?
[10:22] <natsumey_> babo : update-rc.d
[10:22] <babo> nanotaboada, apt-get ( I think )
[10:22] <Fear___> blank, I have a problem, my computer after to have installed ubuntu, but also after to have under way the live, hardly I extinguish it it makes of the written ones and it does not make to see the bar me of the extinction
[10:22] <desiretosee> Madpilot so can you provide an alternative option?
[10:22] <Fear___> sorry my english is terrible
[10:22] <AdvoWork> hi there. Im trying to setup a user account for vsftpd on ubuntu. If i goto System > Administration > Users and groups theres a few users already there. One of the users can connect from another PC to the ftp server fine. but ive added a new user, say testuser testpass with the same privalages, yet when using these details to connect remotely, it just says: [09:21:51]  530 Login incorrect.
[10:22] <nanotaboada> babo: are you sure? because the package installs the runlevel scripts too
[10:22] <Madpilot> desiretosee, for basic PDF viewing? Gnome's default works nicely.
[10:23] <Madpilot> Evince
[10:23] <natsumey_> AdvoWork, are u sure the passwd for testuser is correct ?
[10:23] <babo> nanotaboada, not sure. I was messing about with it for a while. I must have messed it up somehow ..
[10:24] <desiretosee> I know, I have downloaded some book, that can only open by acroread, for Gnom I have to input who knows what password
[10:24] <john> This is my ubuntu desktop vedio: http://v.blog.sina.com.cn/b/4403786-1298710774.html
[10:24] <desiretosee> Madpilot, I know, I have downloaded some book, that can only open by acroread, for Gnom I have to input who knows what password
[10:24] <s-toned> How long will Breezy be supported?
[10:24] <Azzkikr> john: could you stop spamming about your desktop 'vedio'?
[10:24] <nanotaboada> babo: mind elaborating about the "messed it up somehow" part?
[10:25] <Madpilot> s-toned, Breezy isn't supported anymore
[10:25] <Fear___> blank, I have a problem, my computer after to have installed ubuntu, but also after to have under way the live, hardly I extinguish it it makes of the written ones and it does not make to see the bar me of the extinction
[10:25] <desiretosee> Madpilot, under acroread I need not input any password. Is it not anoying
[10:25] <babo> nanotaboada, yeah - it's run script doesn't kick in ... I can't remember what I did to be honest with you. I know it works fine though apart from the runscript
[10:26] <Frogzoo> s-toned: breezy eol'd in april it seems
[10:26] <nanotaboada> babo: ever tried /etc/init.d/apache2 start ?
[10:27] <Madpilot> desiretosee, check Adobe's website, it'll be downloadable from there - hopefully in .deb file
[10:27] <kraut> moin
[10:27] <s-toned> Frogzoo: Madpilot: That means the repositories have vanished? Today I couldn't apt-get update anymore. (Not found.)
[10:27] <nanotaboada> babo: if you want a fresh installation, try sudo apt-get apache2 --purge and then sudo apt-get install apache2
[10:27] <AdvoWork> natsumey_ ive changed the password a few times to ensure its correct :s
[10:28] <nanotaboada> babo: *sudo apt-get remove apache2 --purge
[10:28] <Frogzoo> s-toned: best bet - do a clean install of feisty, breezy's so old, upgrading's out of the question really
[10:28] <desiretosee> Madpilot, I have already  done that first, and seems like I have installed it, and it just doesnt work
[10:28] <Madpilot> s-toned, not sure, but even if the repositories still existed, there will be no more updates in them.
[10:28] <natsumey_> ftp yourftpserver
[10:28] <natsumey_> then put the username
[10:28] <natsumey_> and passwd
[10:28] <babo> nanotaboada, k thanks. I think I'll just go for the runscript update.
[10:29] <desiretosee> Madpilot, so I come here, try to find an alternative solution
[10:29] <nanotaboada> babo: you're welcome
[10:29] <AdvoWork> natsumey_ do that where, on the server thats hosting the vsftpd server, or remotely
[10:29] <Madpilot> desiretosee, not sure - I'm going to have to re-install acroread myself...
[10:30] <natsumey_> either one
[10:30] <desiretosee> Madpilot, no problem, I can wait here and keeping asking
[10:30] <s-toned> Frogzoo: The problem is my Matrox G550DH. Everything newer than Breezy has an X server not supported by the matrox drivers, which I need for dual-head display.
[10:30] <natsumey_> unless u ftp to wrong ftpserver
[10:30] <AdvoWork> natsumey_ 530 Login incorrect.Login failed.
[10:30] <natsumey_> u connect from local or remote
[10:31] <AdvoWork> natsumey_ definately the right server, as if i change the username/pass to a previously setup account it works
[10:31] <owh> Hi folks, this is doing my head in. I've got a ThinkPad R52 with an Intel i915GM. I'm running Feisty. Under Edgy I was running dualhead. Now the best I can do is a cloned screen and to make it worse, the machine won't login unless the second screen is actually attached. I've googled until I'm blue in the face. Any suggestions?
[10:31] <AdvoWork> natsumey_ remotely but still on same network
[10:31] <natsumey_> are u sure the user is exist ?
[10:31] <raphael_> does ubuntu support usb wifi devices?
[10:31] <Frogzoo> s-toned: you can't compile a driver yourself ?
[10:31] <doseryder> Is givre.cabspace.com no longer active?  In general, do you usually just google <whatever server> to check on the status of the repo?
[10:31] <AdvoWork> natsumey_ well, if i goto System > Administion > Users and Groups, the user is in there
[10:32] <erUSUL> raphael_: some of them
[10:32] <babo> root@eire:/home/babo/django/flowerhour# update-rc.d apache2 defaults
[10:32] <babo>  System startup links for /etc/init.d/apache2 already exist.
[10:32] <erUSUL> !wifi | raphael_
[10:32] <ubotu> raphael_: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[10:32] <raphael_> erUSUL: thanks
[10:32] <natsumey_> delete the user
[10:33] <natsumey_> then use command line to adduser
[10:33] <babo> nanotaboada, ^^ it tells me that there's already links. Yet it doesn't start up the app on boot ...
[10:33] <natsumey_> adduser testuser
[10:33] <desiretosee> nanotaboada, I have installed the acroread with download from Adobe. but it doesnt work. is there any way to resolve it.
[10:33] <natsumey_> later u can modified the account
[10:33] <natsumey_> just try from command line first
[10:34] <natsumey_> change passwd from command line. to do it
[10:34] <natsumey_> issue this command passwd testuser
[10:34] <nanotaboada> desiretosee: why it doesn't work?
[10:34] <AdvoWork> natsumey_ shall i delete from the users and groups?
[10:34] <desiretosee> nanotaboada, just change some parameter things? or ...
[10:35] <nanotaboada> babo: is it running now?
[10:35] <AdvoWork> natsumey_ as soon as i did adduser it asked me for all the passwords etc
[10:35] <natsumey_> youp
[10:35] <desiretosee> nanotaboada, I dont know. I see it in program list, under office. click on it, noreaction
[10:35] <AdvoWork> shall i try and connect?
[10:41] <babo> nanotaboada, yip
[10:41] <natsumey_> just fill it
[10:41] <natsumey_> yup
[10:41] <natsumey_> u can try
[10:41] <AdvoWork> natsumey_ it worked ;)
[10:41] <s-toned> Frogzoo: I can't compile the closed source Matrox-driver (mga-hal) which is necessary for DH-display.
[10:41] <desiretosee> nanotaboada, I have read in internet, said should change the file acroread, I have done too, also doesnt work
[10:41] <natsumey_> ok. thanks
[10:41] <nanotaboada> desiretosee: tried running it from a terminal?
[10:41] <AdvoWork> natsumey_ one more question then. How can i limit that user to only be allowed to his home directory: /home/testuser
[10:41] <AdvoWork> so they cant move from there
[10:41] <desiretosee> nanotaboada, how? I am blind on it
[10:41] <doseryder> Is givre.cabspace.com no longer active?  In general, do you usually just google <whatever server> to check on the status of the repo?
[10:41] <natsumey_> jail the user
[10:41] <nanotaboada> desiretosee: you changed the file in which way?
[10:41] <nanotaboada> babo: is it remote or you're in the same box
[10:41] <desiretosee> nanotaboada with sudo editor /usr/bin/acroread
[10:41] <doseryder> I've encountered "Could not connect to givre ... connection timed out" error in multiple attempts on multiple occasions.
[10:42] <nanotaboada> desiretosee: so you've edited the binary? i'm not getting you, mind re stating your problem?
[10:42] <desiretosee> nanotaboada, I go to paste it, so u can see it
[10:42] <nanotaboada> !paste | desiretosee
[10:42] <ubotu> desiretosee: 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)
[10:42] <babo> nanotaboada, same box
[10:43] <desiretosee> nanotaboada it provokes me with problem so I changed it
[10:43] <babo> nanotaboada, I think it's ok now. I removed any run scripts and then I added them again..
[10:44] <nanotaboada> babo: maybe you'd try restarting to check it
[10:44] <AdvoWork> natsumey_ ive now got the user in the folder they want, but that user cant make a folder or transfer files to it. is this user permissions or folder permissions?
[10:44] <natsumey_> chmod 755 /home/user
[10:45] <AdvoWork> natsumey_ done that, still getting 550 Permission denied
[10:46] <nanotaboada> AdvoWork: try chown user:user files
[10:46] <i-like-beans> I'm trying to share a printer with samba, but on the windows clients when i attempt to add the printer it says "the server for the printer does not have the correct driver installed" - what can i do?
[10:46] <natsumey_> owhh i got it
[10:46] <erUSUL> !samba
[10:46] <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
[10:46] <natsumey_> check proftpd.conf
[10:46] <AdvoWork> actual "files" or the files dir?
[10:47] <doseryder> nanotaboada, I encountered: Error Initializing Audio: There was an error initializing the audio i/o layer.  You will not be able to play or record audio.  What do you suggest?
[10:47] <nanotaboada> AdvoWork: whatever you need to change the ownership
[10:48] <AdvoWork> nanotaboada dont get what you mean sorry :/
[10:49] <stelki> hola, anybody using ubuntu 64bit on an nforce chipset, with a core2 duo?
[10:49] <nanotaboada> doseryder: i suggest you check the basics, such as if the audio card is installed
[10:49] <babo> nanotaboada, yeah cheers - a little later on I will ...
[10:49] <nanotaboada> AdvoWork: no problem, are you trying to manage some files? i've read your tread in the middle maybe i'm wrong
[10:49] <AdvoWork> or natsumey_ how do i set the users home dir to: /home/ftp from the command line?
[10:49] <nanotaboada>  babo: anytime
[10:50] <AdvoWork> nanotaboada basically im using vsftp ive setup a user who can now connect to the server etc, but they cant make folders, or cant copy files across
[10:50] <nanotaboada> AdvoWork: you should edit .bashrc
[10:50] <AdvoWork> as they get 500 Permission Denied
[10:50] <nanotaboada> of if it's temporary
[10:50] <Flannel> AdvoWork: usermod
[10:50] <Frogzoo_> stelki: on a lappie, you'd do better with 32bit - for wine & flash
[10:50] <nanotaboada> just export $HOME=something
[10:50] <Flannel> AdvoWork: YOu're probably better off just adding them to an ftp group or something with write perms
[10:50] <stelki> Frogzoo_: Don't need either, but ok :p
[10:51] <nanotaboada> AdvoWork: export $HOME=/home/ftp
[10:51] <doseryder> nanotaboada, yes it is playback and audio input is functioning.
[10:52] <psst> My Ubuntu installation is hanging on "Detecting hardware, please wait..." / "Loading module 'piix' for 'Intel Corporation 82801BA IDE U...".  How can I overcome this?
[10:52] <AdvoWork> Flannel yea true, how do i add them to the ftp group then?
[10:52] <Flannel> AdvoWork: again, usermod.  Make sure you remember the -a
[10:52] <AdvoWork> nanotaboada to do that, wont it do it for all users, what if i only want the user testuser to change HOME dir
[10:52] <psst> (The best suggestion I have heard so far is "install Debian instead")
[10:52] <monk1> hello | hola
[10:52] <Flannel> psst: try the alternate CD
[10:53] <monk1> who can help me to configure apache with virtualhosts
[10:53] <psst> Flannel - thanks!
[10:53] <nanotaboada> AdvoWork: i'm not getting you, i think it'd apply for that session
[10:53] <lkthomas> hey guys
[10:53] <lkthomas> I got an existing ubuntu installed and running on this box
[10:53] <nanotaboada> doseryder: are you using ALSA?
[10:53] <lkthomas> can I use my existing ubuntu to install to a new HDD ?
[10:53] <Frogzoo_> psst: you can try disabling various things in the kernel - acpi or mmu
[10:54] <AdvoWork> nanotaboada basically i need to set the user "testuser"'s home dir to home/ftp so when they connect to the ftp site, theyre directed to there(there real home dir)
[10:54] <Frogzoo_> lkthomas: not really
[10:54] <psst> Frogzoo_: thank you, too
[10:54] <AdvoWork> actually, i think the problem is user permissions still
[10:54] <lkthomas> Frogzoo, I can't transfer it ?
[10:54] <AdvoWork> Flannel usermod -a  you mean?
[10:55] <nanotaboada> AdvoWork: mmm i think it'd probably better either managing that permissions from apache access lists or, including those users in the ftp group
[10:55] <Frogzoo_> lkthomas: you can backup/restore all your file systems, sure - that will work
[10:55] <Flannel> AdvoWork: no, there's more to it.  usermod -G group -a username or whatever.  man usermod will give you all the gorey details
[10:55] <doseryder> nanotaboada,  Intel ICH5 (Alsa mixer) is the selected device in "Volume Control"
[10:56] <nanotaboada> AdvoWork: what do you mean by "ftp site"?
[10:56] <Flannel> AdvoWork: just don't forget the -a, since that causes problems
[10:56] <AdvoWork> Flannel dont forget to ADD the -a? :P
[10:57] <AdvoWork> nanotaboada well ftp site - ftp server
[10:57] <AdvoWork> and nanotaboada whats the ftp user group, just "ftp"? or a number :/  sorry for the lame questions
[10:57] <doseryder> nanotaboada, when I go into "Audacity Preference"  There are no device selected in the drop-down menu nor is there any devices available for selection. :<
[10:58] <nanotaboada> doseryder: you'd try this scripts http://www.linux-sound.info/alsa/index.php and joining the #alsa channel
[10:59] <confusednoob> when trying to enable desktop effects i get compsite extension not available. any idea how to fix this?
[10:59] <nanotaboada> doseryder: http://www.linux-sound.info/alsa/index.php?task=scripts, the first is particularly useful
[10:59] <desiretosee> nanotaboada, hier is the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25385/
[11:01] <doseryder> thx, I'll give that a try
[11:02] <AdvoWork> Flannel usermod -G agroupivesetup -a testuser ?
[11:02] <nanotaboada> desiretosee: i'm not sure what's that you've pasted there, but definitely not a chunk of the acroread binary
[11:03] <Flannel> AdvoWork: Looks like it, yes.
[11:03] <nanotaboada> desiretosee: i mean it should be way less complicated, i think you'd either stick with evince or use automatix at your own risk
[11:04] <nanotaboada>  desiretosee: good luck
[11:04] <p0windah> anyone have suggestions why X11 only starts on its second attempt?
[11:04] <desiretosee> nanotaboada, evince can not open several files that I can read in acroread
[11:04] <p0windah> its quite frustrating, having to start X11, kill it, then restart it
[11:05] <NeXtDaY> I downloaded RealPlayer10GOLD.bin into Desktop.. how do I install it please?
[11:05] <nanotaboada> desiretosee: well since evince is pdf compliant you should check what kind of files you're trying to open
[11:05] <AdvoWork> Flannel a user who can create folders etc has a group called "ftpgroup"  yet when i do: usermod -G ftpgroup -a testuser  then try and create a folder, im still getting 500 Permission Denied
[11:05] <desiretosee> nanotaboada, I need password to open it with evince. I dont know why
[11:05] <fabio__|> can you suggest me a very good FTP server alternative to vsftpd?
[11:05] <desiretosee> nanotaboada, pdf file
[11:06] <nanotaboada> desiretosee: well that's out of my scope, you probably need to ask with the file provider
[11:06] <Flannel> AdvoWork: 500 error?  That's through a webbrowser?
[11:06] <desiretosee> nanotaboada, I dont need to give password under acrobat
[11:06] <AdvoWork> sorry 550 Permission Denied
[11:07] <AdvoWork> and its through a FTP client
[11:07] <Flannel> AdvoWork: and when you do it locally it works?
[11:07] <desiretosee> nanotaboada, ok, I will contact them. but they dont answer questions
[11:07] <nanotaboada> desiretosee: again i think you should check with the person who provided you the pdf, good luck
[11:08] <desiretosee> nanotaboada, thanks. I go to check it
[11:08] <AdvoWork> Flannel this is local really(im ftping from another pc on the network. the user "myuser" works fine(can create folders etc etc) but the user testuer cant
[11:08] <Flannel> AdvoWork: right, but testuser, when logged in via ssh, can or cannot create a folder?
[11:09] <AdvoWork> hmm, to test that I need todo? ssh testuser@ip ?
[11:10] <nanotaboada> AdvoWork: to test ssh?
[11:11] <nanotaboada> AdvoWork: you'd simply do ssh ipaddress -l user
[11:11] <Liber_> Hello ?
[11:11] <AdvoWork> nanotaboada well he said when logged in via ssh? but im not doing it that way. all im doing is connecting with a ftp client from another machine on the same network to the ftp server, or am i getting confused what he means?
[11:11] <n1tef0x> what package should i install to  be able to see movies
[11:12] <n1tef0x> coz when i`m trying to watch with gxine or kaffeine
[11:12] <Flannel> AdvoWork: Right.  We're seeing if the error is because the user has problems, or because of something with ftping
[11:12] <n1tef0x> no picture is displayed
[11:12] <AdvoWork> Flannel ahh i see
[11:12] <nanotaboada> AdvoWork: yes perhaps you're mixing, why not just using ssh?
[11:12] <nanotaboada> AdvoWork: i mean why ftp? are those windows clients?
[11:12] <desdes> Hi all, need some help - I've got an external usb hard drive connected, how can i change its name/filesystem etc?
[11:13] <AdvoWork> Flannel so if i do: ssh ipaddress -l testuser then try and connect to the ftp?   and nanotaboada well its just because the user who will be using the ftp is on windows, everyone else will be on linux
[11:13] <Flannel> AdvoWork: Just connect through some other means.  either ssh, or locally walk up and login.
[11:13] <nanotaboada> desdes: you mean to change the mount point or the label?
[11:14] <desdes> the label
[11:14] <nanotaboada>  AdvoWork: i recommend you to use ssh
[11:14] <AdvoWork> nanotaboada any reason why?
[11:14] <nanotaboada> desdes: if the volume  is FAT32, you can install mtools and use that
[11:14] <Liber_> can anyone awnser a quick questing ?
[11:14] <desdes> it might be NTFS
[11:14] <nanotaboada> AdvoWork: yes, many, it stands for secure shell, so it's either secure, and you use the same commands as in your local shell
[11:15] <erUSUL> !anyone | Liber_
[11:15] <ubotu> Liber_: 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?
[11:15] <ndlovu> is it a bad idea to upgrade thunderbird to 2.0 on edgy? if it's not likely to break my system, what's the best method? download source from mozilla / ubuntuzilla scripts / automatix / other repos ?
[11:15] <nanotaboada> nanotaboada: i mean you don't need to remind ftp commands or install extra software
[11:15] <AdvoWork> also:  i ssh to the server, connect to the ftp site, and i still get 550 permission denied when trying to createa  dir
[11:15] <nanotaboada> AdvoWork: no but you don't ssh to a webserver, you ssh to a shell
[11:16] <Liber_> I have a 22 inch LCD monitor , I need to set the resolution to 1650 X 1050 , but the maximun I can set is 1024X768
[11:16] <AdvoWork> ive setup a ssh program for win now( winscp3)
[11:16] <AdvoWork> and ive now ssh'd to the server (ftp)
[11:16] <nanotaboada> ndlovu | !automatix
[11:16] <AdvoWork> hmmmmmm
[11:16] <AdvoWork> i can make a directory..
[11:17] <AdvoWork> hmmm, it works fine if i ssh in :/
[11:17] <nanotaboada> yes you'd pretty much use the shell as you use it locally
[11:17] <Madpilot> ubotu, fixres | Liber_
[11:17] <ubotu> Liber_: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[11:18] <nanotaboada> i mean if that client you mentioned fully implements ssh you'd do pretty much the same things
[11:18] <Liber_> Thanks , ill check that
[11:18] <nanotaboada> !automatix | ndlovu
[11:18] <ubotu> ndlovu: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[11:19] <ndlovu> nanotaboada, yes, system stability is a concern for me, so I'd prefer not to do anything that could break my system. I'm wondering if there's any other way to upgrade thunderbird that's unlikely to do harm.
[11:20] <AdvoWork> anyone know of a remote program/site that can ping a page for me to see if it exists? as i cant view this certain page from inside the network :/
[11:20] <nanotaboada> ndlovu: well if that's your concern i'd recommend you to stick with the official repositories, hence the supported applications
[11:20] <hatter> does anyone know if i can change the default behaviour of mergedfb with the radeon driver ?  new windows start in the centre of the screen,  which because of spanning is putting the dialog box split in the centre
[11:21] <nanotaboada> AdvoWork: www.whatismyipaddress.com
[11:22] <lkthomas> hmm
[11:22] <lkthomas> anyone try debootstrap before ?
[11:24] <nanotaboada> ndlovu: actually Ubuntu Backports is an officially recognized repo but not an officially supported one :)
[11:25] <BjoeHrn> Hi :)
[11:25] <BjoeHrn> I need some help with beryl
[11:25] <BjoeHrn> When I minimize a window it take one or two seconds
[11:26] <BjoeHrn> If beryl is disable the window will be minimized directly
[11:26] <ndlovu> nanotaboada, at least it works with their packaging structure and is more likely to play nice with the other packages!
[11:28] <Slyder0244> i seriously screwed up my frozen bubble install, anyone think they can help?
[11:28] <nanotaboada> ndlovu: but we're still talking about likelihood, if you meant the stability, i'd suggest you to stick with the official branch
[11:28] <nanotaboada> !ask | Slyder0244
[11:28] <ubotu> Slyder0244: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:29] <Slyder0244> sure no problem
[11:30] <Slyder0244> i get this when i try to load frozen bubble anyone know how to fix this "Global symbol "$version" requires explicit package name at /usr/share/perl5/fb_net.pm line 398."
[11:31] <nanotaboada> Slyder0244: perhaps you could try from a terminal: sudo apt-get remove --purge  frozen-bubble
[11:31] <nanotaboada> Slyder0244: then: sudo apt-get install frozen-bubble, and if you get a dependency error, try: sudo apt-get install -f
[11:31] <hatter> what system do you all use for imaging your system ?
[11:31] <Slyder0244> ok giving it a try now
[11:32] <nanotaboada> hatter: imaging as in using a scanner?
[11:32] <hatter> nanotaboada, no, imagin your system as per ghost or trueimage
[11:32] <hatter> or mondoarchive
[11:32] <confusednoob> who uses wine?
[11:33] <nanotaboada> hatter: you'd try from a terminal: man dd
[11:33] <hatter> i know dd
[11:33] <hatter> slow
[11:33] <hatter> not the best thing for imaging
[11:33] <hatter> better using tar than dd
[11:33] <Slyder0244> ok no dependency error with the install just like the other times i tried but i still get the same error
[11:33] <nanotaboada> hatter: ever tried rsync?
[11:33] <Gruelius> Vmware server/player or Virtualbox, which performs the best?
[11:33] <Gruelius> Not too interested in 3d support but would be handy
[11:33] <hatter> i was wondering if there is something like ghost with boot disks and such
[11:34] <nanotaboada> hatter: i've never used tar for imaging, i didn't know it copied like the mbr and such
[11:34] <confusednoob> vmware is decent depending on what you want to do
[11:34] <hatter> nanotaboada, yes, I am rsyncing some data at the moment, but havent imaged a system with it yet
[11:34] <logmein> hatter: hmm I used isorecorder on windows for my switch to linux
[11:35] <nanotaboada> hatter: neither i
[11:35] <Gruelius> confusednoob: Sony Vegas Movie Studio + games that wont run on wine
[11:35] <logmein> hatter: ah disk imaging, wrong app then. There are a few commands from a live cd that can do similar results though
[11:35] <Gruelius> confusednoob: should i go for player or server?
[11:36] <confusednoob> well i use workstation to make my vm and the use player to run it
[11:36] <logmein> gruelius: server if you want everyone on the network using it
[11:36] <confusednoob> player only works with vm's that are already made
[11:36] <hatter> logmein, yes, true, mondoarchive is the best one i've seen so far, though it has some issues
[11:36] <Gruelius> confusednoob: nope :P i used to use player with modified images
[11:37] <Gruelius> confusednoob: you can set it up so it just appears to be a blank VM
[11:37] <hatter> logmein, isorecorder looks interesting
[11:37] <confusednoob> ahh ic i didnt know that. i always though they had to be fully functional first
[11:37] <logmein> hatter: think it was mount and dd people normally use for images, can't remember the rest
[11:38] <nanotaboada> hatter: ever tried http://www.sysresccd.org/ ?
[11:39] <hatter> no, i am reading about it now
[11:39] <nanotaboada> hatter: http://www.partimage.org/ sounds good
[11:39] <hatter> yeah
[11:40] <hatter> mondoarchive lets you create your image as isos whilst the system is live
[11:40] <hatter> which is good
[11:40] <hatter> I use mondo on all my servers currently
[11:40] <nanotaboada>  hatter: indeed, thanks for the tip
[11:40] <zhen> hello
[11:41] <hatter> the tar method of system image means you have to fdisk the new disk forst

[11:48] <|h4t3m3> hi, i've got ubuntu installed and need to install windows too. what do i do?
[11:49] <JABJabJAB> nanotaboada i didnt see that in the man pages
[11:49] <mc44> |h4t3m3: install windows, then you have to recover grub as windows overwrites it
[11:49] <konstantine> aris
[11:53] <|h4t3m3> how? and do i have to create partitions somehow? i think windows will erase them
[11:53] <JABJabJAB> mv: invalid option -- R
[11:53] <JABJabJAB> Try `mv --help' for more information.
[11:53] <desdes> ok i have enabled write to my external NTFS drive but can't write to it due to permissions, how can I change this?
[11:53] <hatter> anyone know the name of the gtkglext python bindings for install ?
[11:53] <OuZo> !wine
[11:53] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[11:53] <mc44> |h4t3m3: you can create partitions with the windows installer or using the ubuntu livecd
[11:53] <|h4t3m3> mc44: and how do i recover grub?
[11:53] <mc44> !fixmbr

[11:53] <nanotaboada> |h4t3m3: you'd probably ask windows tech support about that
[11:53] <NeXtDaY> i installed RealPlayer10GOLD.dib into my Desktop.. how do I install it using the terminal? please anyone?

[11:56] <arcade> 2.6.20 is non-usable on omnibook 6100.
[11:56] <nanotaboada>  JABJabJAB: mind stating again what you're trying to do? i think i've started to read your thread a bit late
[11:56] <nanotaboada> JABJabJAB: ok, so no folders, sorry
[11:56] <nanotaboada> JABJabJAB: and you want to overwrite or to keep those?
[11:56] <nanotaboada> NeXtDaY: perhaps you've downloaded the wrong file, it should be a dot bin file
[11:56] <mc44> arcade: you can try the gutsy alpha :)
[12:00] <JABJabJAB> nanotaboada  overwrite
[12:00] <nanotaboada> desdes: how are you mounting that drive?
[12:00] <mike__> Never thought I would ever like Ubuntu
[12:00] <NeXtDaY> nanotaboada: Yuck!!  my mistake.. thats true. it is .dib :-(
[12:00] <mike__> but its a great release
[12:00] <desdes> It's external, came up under /media, should I mount elsewhere?
[12:00] <mc44> NeXtDaY: use this http://mikesplanet.net/feisty/realplay/realplay_10.0.8-0ubuntu3~feisty3rdparty_i386.deb
[12:00] <mc44> NeXtDaY: assuming you are on feisty

[12:00] <livingdaylight> Hola Ubunteros!
[12:00] <hatter> whats a 3d app in gnome ? game or something

[12:00] <NeXtDaY> mc44: it is installing now.. thanks
[12:00] <livingdaylight> is there an image editor besides gimp that can edit/resize pictures?
[12:00] <alaQ> livingdaylight: ImageMagick, or plugins to F-Spot.
[12:00] <JABJabJAB> nanotaboada  i get an error message mv: cannot move `1/blah' to a subdirectory of itself, `2/blah'
[12:00] <orbin> mike__: what put you off?
[12:00] <JABJabJAB> but its not a directory of itself as far as i know
[12:00] <livingdaylight> alaQ, plugins for F-Spot? cool will see in Synaptic what gives
[12:00] <desdes> It is mounted in /media, just need to change permissions
[12:00] <nanotaboada> desdes: ubuntu doesn't impletent ntfs support natively so i guess you would have to create a more linux friendly partition there
[12:00] <desdes> like FAT32?
[12:00] <Ind[y] > Hello. I installed apache 2.2 on my ubuntu machine through apt-get and everything was ok, but apache2.conf does not have anything about ScriptAlias, neither I can find in my filesystem any folder named cgi-bin. How can I fix this?

[12:01] <desdes> ok i'll try tht
[12:01] <desdes> thanks
[12:01] <alaQ> livingdaylight: I'm not positive, because I've moved to digiKam (kde-based) for photo-management.
[12:01] <mc44> desdes: you can't change the partition format if you have data on it though :)
[12:02] <livingdaylight> alaQ, ahh.. so digikam could work too?

[12:20] <cola> this is a total shot in the dark, but would anyone happen to know if it's possible to use my crappy old palm zire 21 as an ebook reader with feisty?
[12:25] <cola> I'm kinda going crazy after hours of google and forums
[12:25] <mike__> cola: Give it a try
[12:25] <cola> I can't even get the two connected for some reason
[12:25] <cola> I feel like a retard
[12:25] <Madpilot> mc44, looks like Apple's done a bunch of national holiday ical setups... good call.

[12:27] <Tom_Kun> alaQ: using Ubuntu, having problems getting my wireless card to work (cnet 611). The atmel driver expects it to have id: 0x03eb and product id: 0x7603 but my usb stick is reporting Vendor ID: 0x1371 product id: 0x1, so it's not recognized and is left unused :)

[12:29] <mc44> Tom_Kun: you're using ndiswrapper?
[12:29] <Tom_Kun> mc44: no, the Cnet 611 should work with the atmel driver in linux.

[12:30] <Solarat> im using the live cd and i started to install but now i want to install ubuntu on my other pc because my sister uses this pc and wont want ubuntu but not when i go back to windows im hitting problems

[12:31] <erUSUL> Tom_Kun: try 'sudo update-pciid'
[12:31] <Tom_Kun> right now I simply connected it with a cable. Always works :)
[12:31] <Solarat> when i start up windows i get to the desktop and then it just is frozen
[12:31] <Tom_Kun> erUSUL: done

[12:40] <SveinT> Hi, my swap got messed up so I reformatted my swap partition. But how do I permanently mount it as a swap?
[12:40] <nanotaboada> czaveri: you're welcome
[12:41] <nanotaboada>  SveinT: in a terminal: swap on /partition
[12:41] <SveinT> that will permanantly make it swap? tried the swap on option in gparted
[12:41] <SveinT> but that only made it work for that session
[12:42] <nanotaboada> SveinT: it should be added to /etc/fstab, you deleted it from there too?
[12:42] <sramm> Hi All,
[12:42] <SveinT> I did nothing at all...I have no idea, but suddenly I lost the swap. WHen launching gparted it told me that the partition was of an unknown format

[12:51] <nanotaboada> Pirate_Hunter: or you can always search using apt http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/

[12:54] <Bassetts> hi, I have just got a Lenovo 3000 C200 laptop and I would like to try out Ubuntu on it. I see that there is a test report on the wiki already but my laptop is a slightly different model (8922 AZG) how would I go about making a report for ubuntu on this laptop and trying to get everything working?
[12:54] <bayzider> I am trying to install a .deb with gdebi and it is telling me that there is another package manager open. Yet I know for a fact that there isn't I closed every thing and killed update manager. How do I fix this?
[12:55] <sramm> can somebody help me with my cups-pdf problem? cups-pdf installed, chmod +s /usr/lib/cups/backend/cups-pdf  has been set, still gnome-cups-manager does not detect the printer :c((
[12:55] <SveinT> nanotaboada: I restarted so it should have updated
[12:55] <magnetron> bayzider: "add/remove applications" is also regarded as a package manager
[12:55] <bayzider> Its not open
[12:55] <jrib> bayzider: how did you "kill update-manager"?
[12:55] <SveinT> swapon -s displays the partition
[12:55] <SveinT> does that mean it's working?
[12:55] <bayzider> Go to system monitor and end the process
[12:56] <jrib> bayzider: why not press the X?  It probably didn't delete the lock file
[12:56] <bmh> SveinT: try 'free' - that'll show you how much swap space you have.
[12:56] <commander-ape> is there a java 1.5 repository ?

[12:59] <nanotaboada> bayzider: what about ps aux | grep apt
[12:59] <Ademan> thanks
[01:00] <HowardTheCoward> zumi: chmod +x might not be the proper choice sometimes, since it makes the file executable by everybody

[01:13] <Chicane_> in the system monitor it says my cpu history and cpu is running at allmost 100% the entire time
[01:13] <bayzider> Lol.
[01:13] <HowardTheCoward> Chicane_: run top to see which process eats up the cpu
[01:13] <jrib> Chicane_: use  system -> administration -> system monitor to figure out why
[01:13] <bayzider> If it is not system related just kill it
[01:13] <Chicane_> see thats why nothing says its using anything
[01:13] <Chicane_> like at top one process is using 12%
[01:14] <_Ahti> Hello, Can anyone tell me what is the best download tool for GNOME?
[01:14] <Chicane_> it only accounts for like 15% of the usage
[01:14] <bayzider> wget :)
[01:14] <Pirate_Hunter> nanotaboada this is a cheap controller i have for a long time, I cna't check the vendor, so wheer can I find game pad drivers for linux
[01:14] <_Ahti> bayzider: :D i'd prefer a gui one
[01:14] <bayzider> I just use the one that comes with firefox.
[01:15] <_Ahti> bayzider: thats unreliable -.-

[01:15] <bmh> _Ahti: gwget?

[01:19] <Myrtti> jrib: it probably needs run suid -bit
[01:19] <NET||abuse> Hi guys.. i just updated to feisty from edgy there on my laptop.. i'm trying using the ipod nano on there (2nd GEN 4GB) it connects in rythmbox which is great, and i can drag songs onto it,, but I was wondering If i'm dragging a podcast onto it, can i get that intot he podcasts list somehow? from rythmbox?
[01:19] <frandavid100> Frogzoo: so, I want to run rhythmbox as the user "cristina". what should the launching command be?
[01:19] <nanotaboada> frandavid100: in a terminal: su user
[01:19] <alesan> I have a intel video card (the 915 family)
[01:19] <jrib> Myrtti: it seems to get installed that way but sramm has already done +s too
[01:19] <Parmenion> su cristina rhythmbox
[01:20] <frandavid100> cool, thanks guys
[01:20] <sramm> jrib: yes I do use Feisty... I did exactly the same as you did .. no go, then I started to search the web.. found a forum which advised to execute the +s option
[01:20] <graveson1> what can i use to improve quality of some of my videos. I have imported VHS tapes but of very bad quality
[01:20] <alesan> I have installed 915resolution but I cannot choose nothing more than 1024x768
[01:20] <nanotaboada> frandavid100: np
[01:20] <alesan> what is the correct procedure with 915resolution?
[01:20] <Frogzoo> frandavid100: man su
[01:20] <ziroday> alesan: have you edited your xorg?
[01:21] <dave-ubu> for the "hard of googling" wxdownload fast can be seen / downloaded here - http://dfast.sourceforge.net/

[01:21] <sramm> jrib:but +s did not do the job either .. still the PDF printer is still not detected...
[01:21] <NET||abuse> I was also hoping that upgradeing to feisty might help with a video playback problem i have, i can't playback video under beryl as the video in the window is just blacked out, i'm on an ati radeon mobility 9600

[01:54] <Solarat> my internal hard drive is not being detected is there a way i can fix this?
[01:55] <HowardTheCoward> Solarat: is it detected by the BIOS?
[01:55] <Tr0nic> does anyone know how you find out the chipset on a usb wireless adapter because you can't open them up
[01:55] <Tr0nic> used to be able to look at the chips for number
[01:55] <HowardTheCoward> Tr0nic: try lsusb
[01:55] <HowardTheCoward> and dmesg
[01:55] <Tr0nic> whats that howard?
[01:55] <Solarat> HowardTheCoward: Whats the BIOS?
[01:55] <Tr0nic> will it have the chipset on it?
[01:55] <HowardTheCoward> Tr0nic: man lsusb, man dmesg
[01:55] <Solarat> HowardTheCoward: I'm not the hardware guy :(
[01:55] <Tr0nic> ok howard
[01:55] <Tr0nic> ty
[01:55] <adriank> guys how do i realise cursor from my virtual box? its an emergency?
[01:56] <nanotaboada> HowardTheCoward: but lsusb and dmesg is quite a good start!
[01:56] <suzao> How can i install ubuntu 6.06 on old hardware .... from comand prompt?? because there are No Graphics on screen... and even if i get graphics (on other monitor) mouse doesnt work... this is running off cd so i cannot ( to my knowledge) edit xorg.conf
[01:56] <HowardTheCoward> Solarat: basically the BIOS is the one that loads the operating system
[01:56] <CheshireViking> suzao, can you get hold of the alternate install cd?
[01:56] <Pici> suzao: use the alternate CD
[01:56] <suzao> Ubuntu 5.10 installed fine
[01:56] <Tr0nic> suzao there is a version of ubunto with a text install (no graphics)
[01:56] <Pici> !alternaet | suzao
[01:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about alternaet - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:56] <CheshireViking> !alternate | suzao
[01:56] <ubotu> suzao: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[01:56] <suzao> but dont have 5.10 anymore
[01:56] <bmh> adriank: vmware?
[01:56] <adriank> virtualbox
[01:56] <adriank> innotek
[01:57] <bmh> adriank: dunno then, sorry.  In vmware it's ctrl+alt  -- dunno if that works for you?
[01:57] <suzao> i only seem to have "Desktop mode CD"
[01:57] <Solarat> HowardTheCoward: nope it isnt
[01:57] <nanotaboada>  suzao: install that hdd on a regular box, then install ubuntu on it, then continue the installation via ssh, there you'd always remove unnecessary stuff
[01:57] <CWo_real> iju
[01:58] <HowardTheCoward> Solarat: what kind of hard drive?
[01:58] <Solarat> HowardTheCoward: But when i boot from it its still using ubuntu
[01:58] <suzao> would it have been too difficult for Canonical to incluede an option to "boot live" or "install now advanced option" at boot menu????
[01:58] <Solarat> HowardTheCoward: what do you mean?
[01:58] <HowardTheCoward> Solarat: ata, sata, scsi
[01:58] <Solarat> HowardTheCoward: SATA
[01:58] <Solarat> I think
[01:58] <codecaine> how can I stop gnome from saving recent documents open?
[01:59] <CheshireViking> suzao, you'll need to download the alternate iso then, it includes some different software (ndiswrapper etc) as well & its completely different installing
[01:59] <suzao> My CD says .. Ubuntu 6.06 LTS for your PC
[01:59] <suzao> LTS?
[01:59] <HowardTheCoward> Solarat: if you're not sure about hardware issues, get someone who knows to fix those. from my experiece sata drives are very bad, they often get their power connector broken
[01:59] <CheshireViking> !lts | suzao
[01:59] <brutopia> suzao: Long Time Support
[01:59] <ubotu> suzao: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server.
[01:59] <brutopia> time -> term :D
[01:59] <Solarat> HowardTheCoward: Ok mate thanks
[01:59] <suzao> oh ok
[01:59] <suzao> hmm
[02:00] <suzao> is there a light 'LIGHT' weight linux.;;.
[02:00] <primordium> !Portuguese
[02:00] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[02:00] <suzao> say like .. 70mb
[02:00] <suzao> without bells and whistles
[02:00] <HowardTheCoward> Solarat: you could try to turn off the computer (completely), unplug the connector then plug it back
[02:00] <dave-ubu> i need some help with Internet connection sharing - details are here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=472464
[02:00] <suzao> just want to use for open office
[02:01] <Lincoherent> oho
[02:01] <sebrock> I have a problem with X11 display forwarding: I can't get it to forward when ssh into the box, but I can get it to forward when giving command locally on the box, then the display settings work? why is this?
[02:01] <CheshireViking> suzao, alternate also installs on some different machines, I've got a machine that won't install via the desktop cd, but will only install via the alternate - for some reason, hardware detection seems to work slightly better for me on a specific laptop
[02:01] <ZeroA4> suzao, Xubuntu is light. it is the lightest oficial ubuntu
[02:01] <suzao> ok
[02:01] <Lincoherent> 1080 wow
[02:01] <Lincoherent> and 1 personne is talk french?
[02:01] <Lincoherent> lol
[02:01] <suzao> how do i know if it is official desktop or other version>
[02:01] <suzao> ?
[02:01] <exarkun> Every morning when I get to work, updatedb is sucking up all my i/o bandwidth.  I want it to start running earlier than 7:30am.  Editing /etc/crontab does nothing, perhaps because I also have /etc/anacrontab.  Why do I have two different cron daemons?
[02:02] <suzao> it doesnt say on cd!
[02:02] <suzao> ?
[02:02] <Lincoherent> quelqun parle francais?
[02:02] <letronje> when is pidgin coming in feisty repos?
[02:02] <ziroday> suzao: what do u  mean?
[02:02] <CheshireViking> suzao, you could look at www.distrowatch.com that'll tell you about other versions of linux
[02:02] <Pici> !fr | Lincoherent
[02:02] <ubotu> Lincoherent: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[02:02] <Myrtti> !fr | Lincoherent
[02:02] <slackmagic> suzao: look for DSL (damn small linux) or puppy linux (dsl = 50mb and puppy goes from 28-70mb)
[02:02] <CheshireViking> suzao, hang on, i'll find the alternate cd link for ubuntu
[02:02] <ziroday> letronje: it will come in gutsy, if you want it you can get it a getdeb
[02:02] <Lincoherent> thanks
[02:02] <ZeroA4> suzao, the Oficial Versions have download link at the oficial site www.ubuntu.com
[02:03] <suzao> on the front of the cd .. it just says 6.06 lts ..  but it doesnt actually say DESKTOP LAME VERSION (lol) or INSTALL WITH A DECENT INASTALLER option
[02:03] <suzao> ;-)
[02:03] <suzao> perhaps marking these in future would help
[02:03] <suzao> (nb stil think ubuntu is GREAT OS)
[02:03] <suzao> ;-)
[02:03] <suzao> !
[02:04] <Toma-> !enter
[02:04] <CheshireViking> suzao, http://releases.ubuntu.com/6.06/ there's a couple of sections, 1st is desktop cd that you've got, 2nd is for servers only with no gui, 3rd section is the alternate install downloads
[02:04] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[02:04] <ZeroA4> suzao, there are unoficcial version aiming to be lighter
[02:04] <suzao> ok ;-) thanks man

[02:07] <Stephen> hey, im a noob that just installed ubuntu 7.04. the only internet access i have is through a vpn network. can someone please help?
[02:09] <ziroday> Stephen: ill try, do you have a wireless card?
[02:09] <_Ahti> How can i open a port for Azureus?
[02:09] <Stephen> yes
[02:09] <scales> hello i need some help.....how to install nvidia geforce fx5500 drivers?
[02:09] <_Ahti> or rather... How can i open TCP ports????
[02:09] <Stephen> and there are other computers in the building with an existing connection to the vpn network. these machine also have wireless cards
[02:09] <ziroday> scales: very easy, use the restricted driver manager
[02:09] <HowardTheCoward> _Ahti: open where? nobody knows your configuration
[02:10] <ziroday> scales: System > Administration > Restriced Driver Manager
[02:10] <Stephen> but the network itself is not actually wireless, its all hardwired.
[02:11] <scales> ziroday: i dont have it
[02:13] <ubutom> _Ahti: as fas as i know, ubuntu doesnt block any port in its default installation. i just had to forward the ports in my dsl-router
[02:13] <scales> ziroday: i have ubuntu ultimate 1.3
[02:13] <_Ahti> ubutom: Really? ok
[02:13] <Plantain> My xorg.conf file just talks about me having a generic nvidia card, how might I get it to auto-detect my graphics card for what it infact is?
[02:13] <Stephen> so the restricted driver manager is all i need?
[02:13] <ziroday> scales: err thats not supported here :), but ill still help
[02:13] <crdlb> Plantain, the identifier is just a name
[02:13] <ziroday> Plantain: what card?
[02:13] <NemosNemos1> Hi everybody
[02:13] <ziroday> scales: does UU have restricted driver manager
[02:13] <Stephen> its built in to the board on my hp laptop (model - zd8000
[02:13] <scales> ziroday: i tried with synaptic and with terminal and nothig
[02:13] <scales> ziroday: i tried with synaptic and with terminal and nothing
[02:13] <ziroday> scales: i used envy
[02:13] <Cleric> hi everyone, what's the difference between compiz and beryl?
[02:13] <NemosNemos1> I need help: I have to install Ubuntu on a FAT32 partition. Anyway, when I try to do that, it just allows me to install it on the NTFS (Windows) partition. How can I install it on the other one?
[02:13] <ziroday> scales: ever heard of it?
[02:13] <Plantain> ziroday: I *think* it's a 6600 Gefore Go
[02:13] <scales> ziroday: im new to linux
[02:13] <crdlb> Cleric, beryl has more plugins and a more powerful settings manager
[02:13] <ziroday> Cleric: features and stability (argueably)
[02:14] <ziroday> Plantain: read waht crdlb said
[02:14] <Cleric> so beryl is regarded as more stable?
[02:14] <Plantain> Oh okay
[02:14] <crdlb> Cleric, no, compiz is
[02:14] <NemosNemos1> Anyone?
[02:14] <crdlb> but really there's not that much difference
[02:14] <NemosNemos1> I asked for help
[02:14] <ziroday> scales: umm go here and dl the unstable version, then install envy and run the driver manager
[02:16] <ziroday> scales: you can get envy here www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[02:16] <crdlb> scales, do you have System>administration>restricted drivers manager?
[02:16] <Plantain> crdlb: What about Device under "Screen" ?
[02:16] <NemosNemos1> I need help: I have to install Ubuntu on a FAT32 partition. Anyway, when I try to do that, it just allows me to install it on the NTFS (Windows) partition. How can I install it on the other one?
[02:16] <ziroday> Plantain: its just a name so xorg knows what card youre talking about
[02:16] <shameer> hey room can anyone help me with a problem with synaptic /Apt
[02:16] <Cleric> crdlb: im using the preinstalled compiz now and when i maximise firefox it gives me a black screen content
[02:16] <crdlb> Plantain, that just tells X to point to the right Section "Device"
[02:16] <Plantain> okay, thanks
[02:16] <crdlb> Plantain, all that matters is that you're using Driver "nvidia"
[02:16] <NemosNemos1> HEY
[02:16] <Stephen> ziroday: can i get a internet connection through a wireless bridge from a windows machine already on the vpn network?
[02:16] <NemosNemos1> Can you read my messages?
[02:16] <CheshireViking> !envy
[02:16] <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!
[02:16] <NemosNemos1> I don't think so
[02:16] <crdlb> !blackwindows-#ubuntu-effects | Cleric
[02:16] <ubotu> Cleric: This essentially happens when you run out of video memory. The only known workaround for this until it is fixed in the nVidia driver is to start beryl with --use-copy or "Copy Rendering" from beryl-manager.
[02:16] <Neuron> yes we can nemos
[02:16] <crdlb> Cleric, it's an nvidia driver bug
[02:16] <NemosNemos1> Neuro, it's the third time I've asked for help
[02:16] <NemosNemos1> I need help: I have to install Ubuntu on a FAT32 partition. Anyway, when I try to do that, it just allows me to install it on the NTFS (Windows) partition. How can I install it on the other one?
[02:16] <crdlb> Cleric, it is possible to workaround in compiz with indirect rendering
[02:16] <NemosNemos1> Contact me with PM, if you prefer it
[02:16] <Neuron> how is it you wanna install ubuntu on fat32 looks not a good idea
[02:17] <Cleric> crdlb: im new to all this so how hard is it to workaround with compiz? or is it easier to simply use beryl instead?
[02:17] <NemosNemos1> So, do I have to convert that into a NTFS partition?
[02:17] <ShinSR71> installing anything on FAT32 isnt a good idea in general >_>
[02:17] <suzao> does dsl come with a gui?
[02:17] <scales> ziroday: i need to download this one??? envy_0.9.5-0ubuntu1_all.deb
[02:17] <crdlb> Cleric, /join #ubuntu-effects I'll help you there
[02:17] <Neuron> you shoud use ext3 for ubuntu
[02:17] <joycetick> is there any way to make the scroll up on my mouse the left click button? (left click broke :()
[02:17] <mc44> NemosNemos1: reformat the fadt32 as ext3 and install on that
[02:17] <Neuron> not ntfs nor fat32
[02:17] <mc44> *fat32
[02:17] <crdlb> scales, if you have system>administration>restricted drivers manager
[02:17] <crdlb> use that
[02:17] <Cleric> okay thanks
[02:17] <NemosNemos1> You're right
[02:17] <NemosNemos1> That was the mistake
[02:18] <ziroday> scales: yeah
[02:18] <Neuron> you should delete partitions and create ext3
[02:18] <suzao> does dsl come with a gui?
[02:18] <Neuron> in the case you're installing ubuntu in all the hdd space
[02:18] <ShinSR71> suzao : yes
[02:18] <Me2resh> hi, how i have a problem, i am a web developer, and i cant put files in the folder /var/www/html to test

[02:18] <NemosNemos1> How do I have to worj?
[02:18] <Neuron> resize ntfs with partition magic nemos
[02:19] <ShinSR71> suzao : sure
[02:19] <ShinSR71> suzao : it uses Fluxbox iirc
[02:19] <cntbATwork> jonathaN
[02:19] <HowardTheCoward> Me2resh: probably your user doesn't have permissions to write there, it's a normal thing
[02:19] <suzao> ShinSR71: fluxbox?
[02:19] <suzao> ok
[02:19] <NemosNemos1> The last question: 3,9 GB are ok for Ubuntu?
[02:19] <ShinSR71> suzao : google it :P
[02:19] <suzao> ShinSR71: not sure what that is... can that run open office?
[02:19] <scales> ziroday: for sure that i dont have it
[02:19] <mc44> NemosNemos1: should be, bit small though
[02:19] <Neuron> use Hiren's BootCD tools to resize your ntfs
[02:19] <suzao> ShinSR71: ok. thanks ;-)
[02:19] <Me2resh> HowardTheCoward, ok, how i can make a folder in my home directory for the user i use and be opened by localhost/!username/folder ?
[02:20] <ShinSR71> suzao : sure it can run anything
[02:20] <Neuron> 3,9gb??
[02:20] <Neuron> very short size
[02:20] <ShinSR71> suzao : it's just the shell theme, like KDE, Gnome etc.
[02:20] <ziroday> scales: then go ahead
[02:20] <Neuron> it would be fine to assign at the very least 10gb for ubuntu
[02:20] <suzao> ShinSR71: cool
[02:20] <NemosNemos1> /server irc.freenode.net
[02:20] <suzao> ;-)
[02:20] <HowardTheCoward> Me2resh: you can set up a virtualhost for that (i assume you use apache)
[02:20] <scales> ziroday: what to do next?
[02:20] <cntbATwork> what is ubuntu +tncLzf ubuntu-unregged pls ?
[02:20] <ShinSR71> suzao : there are screenshots on the dls website
[02:20] <ziroday> scales: you dl it?
[02:20] <ShinSR71> dsl*
[02:20] <suzao> ShinSR71: thanks
[02:21] <NemosNemos1> How can I change the server?
[02:21] <Me2resh> HowardTheCoward, yes, i do use apache, how can i set up a virtualhost
[02:21] <scales> yep
[02:21] <mc44> cntbATwork: this channel's modes
[02:21] <ziroday> scales: then double click on it and install it
[02:21] <cntbATwork> so ubuntu-unregged ?

[02:22] <suzao> ShinSR71: can i install dsl on a h-disk?
[02:22] <HowardTheCoward> Me2resh: it's in the apache docs. another workaround would be to symlink your dir somewhere into your DocumentRoot and make sure apache can follow the symlink and has permissions to serve your files

[02:26] <ubotu> julius: Welcome to #ubuntu - the Ubuntu support channel.
[02:26] <steveire> Has anyone tried copying partitions? You should use dd right?

[02:26] <mc44> steveire: and you may have to change fstab
[02:26] <Me2resh> HowardTheCoward, u think this is it http://www.debuntu.org/2006/02/22/7-virtual-hosting-using-apache-2?
[02:27] <steveire> mc44: Yeah, that stuff won't be a problem
[02:27] <Me2resh> HowardTheCoward,  http://www.debuntu.org/2006/02/22/7-virtual-hosting-using-apache-2

[02:28] <HowardTheCoward> Me2resh: try it, looks simple
[02:28] <defrysk> scales, run envy from the menu
[02:28] <jonathan_> ubotu is a bot?
[02:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about is a bot? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:28] <mc44> jonathan_: yes
[02:28] <jonathan_> oh...
[02:28] <jonathan_> he2
[02:28] <knifepoint> crdlb: is there any other way to edit it than the GUI because i want to run the script for a certain USB soundcard
[02:28] <mc44> !bot | jonathan_
[02:28] <ubotu> jonathan_: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[02:29] <defrysk> and scales you know envy is not supported by ubuntu so,,, you are off topic
[02:29] <walnut> hello everybody .... is there anyone who knows how to install cspace on feisty?
[02:29] <jonathan_> it's very cool!
[02:29] <jonathan_> anybody a bot in here after ubotu?
[02:29] <jonathan_> he2
[02:29] <LokiListens> anyone at all have ideas on why it won't recognize dvds?
[02:29] <_Ahti_> Anyone here use BitTorrent? Which would you say is better... Azureus, or Deluge?
[02:29] <scales> defrysk: what do you mean it's not supported
[02:29] <LokiListens> _Aht_ i prefer Azureus
[02:30] <defrysk> scales, its not an ubuntu product
[02:30] <_Ahti_> LokiListens: Yeah? The thing about Azureus though, its in Java...
[02:30] <mc44> scales: it tends to break
[02:31] <knifepoint> _Aht_: i know you didnt list it but ktorrents not to bad
[02:31] <Frogzoo> LokiListens: do you have codecs?
[02:31] <_Ahti_> LokiListens: Yeah, KTorrent is mad, but i dislike running KDE programs on GNOME and vice versa
[02:31] <scales> mc44: then how to install nvidia drivers
[02:31] <LokiListens> _Ahti_ agreed, but it just fits my tastes better.  i think those two and ktorrent are about the same in fucntionality
[02:31] <scales> ??
[02:31] <idefixx> how does ubuntu set LC_stuff (locales)? I can choose a language in the gnome greeter... but when i edit /etc/environment or /etc/default/locale that doesnt do anything.
[02:31] <mc44> scales: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[02:31] <jimmy> hey
[02:31] <LokiListens> Frogzoo i have installed all codecs from the wiki
[02:31] <Frogzoo> idefixx: logout/back in to get new env't
[02:31] <scales> utlimate 1.3 on ubuntu 6.10
[02:31] <scales> ultlmate 1.3 on ubuntu 6.10
[02:31] <knifepoint> _Aht_: fair enough never looked for a gtk replacement
[02:31] <Frogzoo> LokiListens: & libdecss2?
[02:31] <mc44> scales: ultimate?! I have no idea what that is. Why don't you use feisty
[02:31] <defrysk> _Ahti_, try deluge-torrent or transmission
[02:31] <crdlb> scales, do a fresh install of regular feisty
[02:31] <jimmy> is it even possible to to a "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade" on the live CD?
[02:32] <LokiListens> frogzoo, i believe so, i'll check
[02:32] <jonathan_> ach! Why I can't using beryl on my vmware?
[02:32] <firedrops> lol
[02:32] <defrysk> _Ahti_, as a gnome user I think transmission is great
[02:32] <idefixx> Frogzoo: i know that i still dont know what sets them.
[02:32] <mc44> jonathan_: because it doesn't support 3d
[02:32] <Frogzoo> LokiListens: libdvdcss2 actually
[02:32] <firedrops> jonathaN, there's no 3d accleration
[02:32] <firedrops> inside vmware
[02:32] <jonathan_> there is no 3d acceleration on my vmware?
[02:32] <scales> i have 7.04 but it's to simpli it doesn't all the programs like ultimate 1.3
[02:32] <jonathan_> how can?
[02:32] <knifepoint> what does feisty use instead of hotplug i want to run a script when a usb soundcard is inserted anyone? volume manager doesnt work
[02:32] <firedrops> i mean, i think there's an experimental module...
[02:32] <mc44> jonathan_: you can't
[02:33] <Pici> jonathan_: It doesnt support it, period.
[02:33] <mc44> firedrops: for workstation only I think
[02:33] <julius> please help me, I have to send Ubuntu repository on DVD to Congo but It doesn't work. I get a "dists" and a "pool" file on the DVD. It seems correct i think
[02:33] <macsim> how can I remove the beryl shadow ?
[02:33] <jonathan_> oh...
[02:33] <LokiListens> frogzoo, i have the newest version
[02:33] <Stephen> im trying to connect to a vpn network for internet access. can some pleeeese help? im really stuck!
[02:33] <firedrops> at easyvmx.com there's an option to create vmx with 3dacc
[02:33] <Frogzoo> ericx_2: update-locale ?
[02:33] <firedrops> never tested it though
[02:33] <jonathan_> I always wanted to using beryl
[02:33] <Frogzoo> idefixx: update-locale ?
[02:33] <mc44> jonathan_: then install ubuntu properly :)
[02:33] <firedrops> jonathan_, put the real thing
[02:34] <firedrops> virtualization is the last option, at least to me
[02:34] <firedrops> :P
[02:34] <jonathan_> he2, my PC broken.. I can't install xp, or ubuntu as well
[02:34] <jonathan_> only vista
[02:34] <jonathan_> grounder
[02:34] <scales> how to install nvidia drivers on ubuntu 6.10
[02:34] <jimmy> is it even possible to to a "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade" on the live CD?
[02:34] <jimmy> *do a
[02:34] <mc44> !nvidia | scales
[02:34] <ubotu> scales: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:34] <idefixx> Frogzoo: afaik that just changes /etc/default/locale .. which doesnt change anything. as stated before :)
[02:34] <walnut> anyone who knows how to install cspace on feisty?
[02:34] <firedrops> jimmy, theoretically
[02:35] <firedrops> never tested installing anything though
[02:35] <jimmy> mmm, that dosnt sound to promising :(
[02:35] <LokiListens> frogzoo, any other thoughts?
[02:35] <firedrops> why would you want to do that?
[02:35] <confusednoob> anyway to convert .rpm to .deb?
[02:35] <jimmy> well im trying to install Mythbuntu, and i was having an error on install, so someone suggested doing that..
[02:35] <jonathan_> but if my VGA is on board can I'm using beryl?
[02:35] <macsim> confusednoob: alien
[02:35] <HowardTheCoward> confusednoob: alien, but don't do that
[02:35] <jimmy> but i get an error trying to do it.
[02:36] <Frogzoo> idefixx: worth a shot though
[02:36] <mc44> !rpm | confusednoob
[02:36] <ubotu> confusednoob: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[02:36] <Pici> !alien | confusednoob
[02:36] <Frogzoo> LokiListens: you tried vlc?
[02:36] <knifepoint> Anyone know what feisty uses instead of hotplug?
[02:36] <confusednoob> ok :(
[02:36] <firedrops> jimmy, if i am understanding what you're saying....you need to install ubuntu first
[02:36] <mc44> confusednoob: what are you trying to install
[02:36] <firedrops> before you implement that
[02:36] <confusednoob> nestopia its a nes emulator
[02:36] <LokiListens> frogzoo, i will, but file browser doesn't even recognize
[02:37] <jimmy> yeh this is Mythbuntu (Ubuntu with MythTV installed), but it dosn't like me :(
[02:37] <jimmy> i may install ubuntu and then install MythTV but that seems harder..
[02:37] <mc44> jimmy: asak in #mythbuntun :P
[02:37] <mc44> *mythbuntu
[02:37] <jimmy> i have, they are all afk :p
[02:37] <mc44> heh
[02:37] <jonathan_> anybody can help me to using beryl?
[02:38] <confusednoob> i found the sources too but have no idea what to do with them
[02:38] <jonathan_> or compiz?
[02:38] <DJ-_-> Hi, is rtorrent the best deal for ubuntu-server OS
[02:38] <idefixx> Frogzoo: i allready edit the usual system files... without the result i would have expected. thats why im asking. well.. gonna start ubuntu without gdm/kdm and see what the locals say at that point.
[02:38] <_Ahti_> *sigh* What is the best BitTorrent client for GNOME, i like Deluge but think its not as configurable as i'd like, Azureus is java and hence a no-no... i don't like mixing KDE apps with GNOME enviroment and vice versa. Should i emulate uTorrent under WINE?
[02:38] <DJ-_-> i mean good*
[02:38] <Pici> !torrent
[02:38] <ubotu> Torrent clients: Azureus (Java), BitTornado (Shell with python front-end), KTorrent (KDE/Qt), rTorrent (C++) -  Bittorent FAQ: http://www.bittorrent.com/FAQ.html
[02:38] <LokiListens> frogzoo, no response with vlc
[02:39] <LokiListens> frogzoo, it is recognizing normal cds
[02:39] <jimmy> is it hard to install MythTV yourself?
[02:39] <DJ-_-> can you get me a good torrent client's name for ubuntu-server
[02:39] <mc44> !mythv | jimmy
[02:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mythv - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[02:39] <mc44> !mythtv | jimmy
[02:39] <ubotu> jimmy: MythTV is a TV framework for Linux - Instructions for using with Ubuntu at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV
[02:39] <confusednoob> torrentflux is decent
[02:39] <Narada> hi which package contains the command epstopdf
[02:40] <DJ-_-> confusednoob: can i set upload limits?
[02:40] <Frogzoo> LokiListens: ls -l /dev/dvd
[02:40] <HowardTheCoward> DJ-_-: i'd suggest you to open the wikipedia page for bittorrent, to scroll down to the list of clients and try them one by one.
[02:40] <noob> stop saying noob :)
[02:40] <Pici> !noob | noob
[02:40] <ubotu> noob: Words like noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[02:40] <LokiListens> frogzoo, uncertain, where should that be?
[02:40] <Pici> noob: :p
[02:40] <confusednoob> DJ i cant remember exactly
[02:41] <knifepoint> !hotplug
[02:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hotplug - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:41] <confusednoob> i do know you have to have mysql installed to use it though
[02:41] <jonathan_> exiit
[02:41] <DJ-_-> confusedn00b: ok
[02:41] <Plantain> With much hackery, I've got twinview working, but my screens are backwards, how might I change the orientation of them?
[02:41] <confusednoob> im pretty sure its rather configurable though
[02:41] <_Ahti_> knifepoint: Ubuntu doesn't use hotplug anymore, its all done by udev
[02:41] <DJ-_-> confusednoob: well mysql...dont think i am looking for heavy stuff
[02:41] <Plantain> So if I move to the left of the left screen, it appears on the right of the right screen
[02:41] <Plantain> mysql is easy stuff
[02:42] <DJ-_-> Plantain: more packages...less performance
[02:42] <confusednoob> dj http://www.torrentflux.com/
[02:42] <DJ-_-> k
[02:42] <Frogzoo> LokiListens: ls -l /dev/dvd
[02:43] <DJ-_-> confusednoob: its a GUI?
[02:43] <DJ-_-> confusednoob: well i am looking for ubuntu-server which is CLI only
[02:43] <confusednoob> ahh ic
[02:44] <LokiListens> frogzoo, i got back ls lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2007-06-12 23:29 /dev/dvd -> hdd
[02:44] <confusednoob> rtorrent is ok too
[02:44] <Plantain> DJ-_-: You could probably use SQLLite, which is a lot faster
[02:44] <confusednoob> command line only but everyone says the commands are rather simple
[02:44] <Frogzoo> LokiListens: ls -l /dev/cdrom
[02:44] <HowardTheCoward> confusednoob: rtorrent is not command-line only
[02:45] <Sidey> ok.. I finally made it lol.. guys I need simple guidance before I trash the drive with my normal windows based tools..
[02:45] <LokiListens> frogzoo, lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2007-06-12 23:29 /dev/cdrom -> hdd

[02:45] <confusednoob> my mistake. guess i was misinformed
[02:45] <huzz> how do i show grub the vista partition on another drive?
[02:46] <Pici> !grub | huzz
[02:46] <ubotu> huzz: 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
[02:46] <HowardTheCoward> confusednoob: it has a ncurses interface. not very cute, but still saves you from the hassle of typing long commands in console
[02:46] <DJ-_-> howardthecoward: rtorrent sounds perfect then
[02:46] <DJ-_-> howardthecoward: for the server
[02:47] <LokiListens> frogzoo, i have tried multiple dvds, so it's not scratches or anything
[02:47] <aze_> hi
[02:48] <confusednoob> HowardTheCoward:  i think ill have to check that one out then since its not command line only
[02:48] <confusednoob> anyone have experience compiling from source?
[02:49] <HowardTheCoward> confusednoob: if you mean rtorrent, you will also need libtorrent for it
[02:49] <Pici> !compile | confusednoob
[02:49] <ubotu> confusednoob: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[02:49] <DJ-_-> HowardTheCoward: how do you close that..rtorrent
[02:49] <HowardTheCoward> DJ-_-: read the manpage for it, learn the hotkeys
[02:49] <DJ-_-> oh ok
[02:49] <confusednoob> ty
[02:50] <Sidey> ok.  I found the howto but can you make a grub boot floppy via a live CD setup?
[02:50] <Jack_Sparrow> I just went to the first link in the !mp3 help.  It says to go to applications, ok, ad remove, ok but then it says in the upper right change it to all available applications, I dont have that option.

[02:59] <dave5168> could be...I was thinking in general pc terms
[02:59] <jli> i don't know what i haven't setup right
[02:59] <Tr0nic> VIVA UBUNTU!!!!!!!!!!
[02:59] <vigneswari> which package is responsible for bringing the panel with log out, hibernate, switch user, shutdown icons
[03:00] <jli> isn't it an icon theme
[03:01] <Supaplex> no carrier means the connection was lost.
[03:01] <julius> so noone can help me with my dvd repository problem ? :(
[03:01] <idefixx> vigneswari: i guess gnome-panel, or gnome-panel-data. not sure thou
[03:01] <d1> anyone in here familiar with the install problem a lot of people are experiencing with 7.04.... basically getting I/O errors on drives
[03:01] <vigneswari> jli, icon theme ll provide only icons
[03:01] <d1> basically: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2780574
[03:01] <logmein> julius: what the prob?
[03:02] <Tr0nic> hmm
[03:02] <Jack_Sparrow> julius: What was the problem?  I am just waking up and a little slow
[03:02] <vigneswari> idefixx, i ll check. thanks
[03:02] <d1> but I disabled the FD in bios.... then just get the same error with /dev/hdd
[03:02] <logmein> d1: I am familiar with it, its very common fix
[03:02] <jli> when well when you install a new icon theme it changes the icons in startup/shutdown
[03:02] <ghatak> I have edited by /etc/group to add myself to a group. How can i force it to take effect without reboot ?
[03:02] <d1> logmein: you have a URL of a good fix?
[03:02] <ark__> hello
[03:03] <Frogzoo> yeah LokiListens it's odd - this is just stock install?
[03:03] <logmein> d1: you have to fdisk then mount and umount then try manually parititoning it with formatting for each
[03:03] <Pici> !away > firedrops
[03:03] <julius> logmein, Jack_Sparrow, I want to put Ubuntu repository on DVD. So I download them all, use debpartial, debcopy. Look here : it seems to work : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25397/
[03:03] <Frogzoo> ghatak: log out/back in
[03:03] <idefixx> ghatak: that is a session thingy... you'll have to relogin to take effect.
[03:03] <logmein> d1: try doing fdisk /dev/hda or fdisk /dev/sda in terminal and follow its instructions for deleting partitions
[03:03] <d1> i'm finding a bunch of crap pages... lots of people complaining about it, with no real solutions.... the biggest I've found is people burning the CD iso to DVD media
[03:03] <ghatak> ahh...
[03:03] <ghatak> ok
[03:03] <julius> logmein, Jack_Sparrow. When I burn what's inside "ubuntu0", Synaptic doesn't seem to understand that the DVD is a source of packages
[03:03] <logmein> julius: you want to install ubuntu to a dvd? yeah that should work
[03:03] <LokiListens> frogzoo, yes, ubuntu off the paid for cd-rom, computer came with dvd drive
[03:03] <DJ-_-> brb
[03:04] <BlueDevil> i'm running feisty on a core2duo/asus p5b-deluxe and it won't see the whole 4GB of ram, it only sees 2GB; what can i do to fix it?
[03:04] <d1> why would repartitioning do anything to a liveCD
[03:04] <d1> ?
[03:04] <logmein> julius: if you want to shove a bunch of files on a dvd then its not an image
[03:04] <Jack_Sparrow> julius: There were two parts to make that cd dvd thing work..
[03:04] <julius> logmein, no I just want repository on DVD to send them to Congo
[03:04] <logmein> d1: your installing the liveCD right?
[03:04] <my_haz> is there a tool that you can script mouse movments and mouse clicks with?
[03:04] <d1> yea
[03:08] <logmein> julius: well download the directory and copy it to dvd
[03:08] <Jack_Sparrow> julius: one was the files the other was the file list and you had to also add the dvd as a repo in synaptic..
[03:08] <julius> logmein, the directory is about 15 go
[03:08] <my_haz> like i would like to script the clicking of two buttons which are on different parts of my window
[03:08] <logmein> julius: oh so your using compression and don't want to compress it all ok
[03:08] <freeagy> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MiLK7S2fXqQ
[03:08] <julius> logmein, that's why I used debcopy and debpartial to creat 4 directory
[03:08] <freeagy> lol
[03:08] <Me2resh> how can i add more character encodings to evolution mail ?
[03:08] <julius> Jack_Sparrow, I try to add the DVD as a repo... wait I show you
[03:08] <logmein> julius: that's confusing, ohhh so your adding a local directory to the repository list?
[03:08] <julius> logmein, yep that's what I did
[03:08] <julius> It works when the 4 directorys are on my external HD
[03:08] <julius> but when I burn one of them, it doesn't seem to be recognized by synaptic
[03:08] <NemosNemos1> Hi
[03:08] <NemosNemos1> Esecuzione di 'grub-install (hd0)' fallita.
[03:08] <NemosNemos1> Questo  un errore fatale.
[03:08] <idefixx> julius: are you sure the repository is ok? what does apt-get update say when you run it?
[03:08] <NemosNemos1> What do I have to do?
[03:08] <Jack_Sparrow> julius: LEt me see if I can find the tutorial on that..
[03:08] <julius> idefixx, look here : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25397/
[03:08] <julius> it seems to work
[03:08] <zumi> the quality of my sound is very bad, where do i get nforce2 drivers from?
[03:08] <mario_> test
[03:08] <Frogzoo> BlueDevil: you might need to pass a kernel option to get 4gig iirc
[03:08] <logmein> zumi: alsa and by using sound mixer, also sound under wine is different settings
[03:08] <LokiListens> frogzoo, i've just read that rebooting with a dvd in drive sometimes, works, so i will be back
[03:08] <idefixx> julius: so the same 4 dirs work of the hd but when you just burn them to a dvd they dont anymor?
[03:08] <ndee> hello there, I want to access "man 2 read" but it tells me that there is no manual entry for read in section 2 although there should be one.
[03:08] <julius> idefixx, that's it... wait I show you
[03:08] <BlueDevil> Frogzoo: i googled it and found some "fixes" like blacklist intel_agp and tweak bios, but they don't work :(
[03:08] <logmein> julius: what is the dvd's filesystem? it has to be ext3 doesn't it
[03:08] <Me2resh> how can i add more character encodings to evolution mail ?
[03:08] <BlueDevil> Frogzoo: at boot bios sees 4096MB
[03:08] <julius> logmein, ohhhhhh !!! it must be ext3 ? I just burn it without any options
[03:08] <idefixx> julius: well thats in french :) cant to much with it.. let me see what i can remember
[03:09] <Supaplex> ndee: you'd have to install the package that provides it.
[03:09] <ndee> Supaplex: which package is that?
[03:09] <julius> idefixx, I speak french :)
[03:09] <julius> is it racoon's blog ?
[03:09] <Pici> julius: I know theres an option to specify a deb cdrom, I just cant rememebr it
[03:09] <BlueDevil> Frogzoo: : even kernel sees it at boot, but then every app reports 2GB
[03:09] <Supaplex> ndee: use apt-file search
[03:09] <julius> Just check here : I put the DVD in the sources.list and try an apt-get update : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25398/
[03:09] <Pici> julius: try using apt-cdrom
[03:09] <julius> Pici, hmmmm... maybe that's the problem
[03:10] <julius> Pici, apt-cdrom doesn't work... It doesn't find the dvd repo
[03:10] <BlueDevil> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25399/
[03:10] <ndee> Supaplex: is that a man page browser?
[03:11] <BlueDevil> Frogzoo: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25399/
[03:11] <julius> with the 4 repository on the external HD : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25397/     |   with one directory on the DVD : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25398/
[03:11] <lt> hy
[03:11] <lt> i cant install my soundblaster audigy
[03:11] <Jack_Sparrow> julius: http://swik.net/opensource/del.icio.us+tag%2Fopensource/APTonCD+-+download+and+create+repository+on+CD/0ki8
[03:12] <Jimmey> lt, I have one - What is the problem?
[03:12] <lt> i cant find the driver
[03:12] <tck> should one install linux-686 for feisty to improve CPU performance over the generic one?
[03:12] <tck> i have a 1.5 ghz celeron
[03:12] <hylje> tck: 686 gets some arch-specific optimization
[03:12] <TakeOut{u}> tck, not worth it
[03:12] <idefixx> julius: well like Pici said try cdrom.. even though it should work with file, imo.
[03:12] <tck> ok
[03:13] <Jimmey> lt, the driver is already installed..You just make sure that the computer is trying to use the Audigy, and not the onboard sound chip. Let me find you a link on how to do thit
[03:13] <Frogzoo> BlueDevil: just an idea, try the linux-image-server-bigiron kernel
[03:13] <julius> Jack_Sparrow, I'll check this but, you understand...... my directory's are working but only if they're not burn :( I'd like to understand what doesn't work
[03:14] <Sidey> guys.. sorry to bother. but I got grub questions for stage 1.. can someone help
[03:14] <Jimmey> lt, follow this guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449 - Scroll to where it says "Configuring default soundcards / stopping multiple soundcards from switching"
[03:14] <lt> ok, thx!!
[03:14] <Frogzoo> BlueDevil: or a bios upgrade might fix it
[03:17] <vigneswari> idefixx, i think that panel is not coming with gnome-panel.
[03:17] <aMMuNix> I want to resize my ext3 partition, why can't I do that?
[03:17] <vigneswari> idefixx, anymore idea?
[03:17] <magnetron> !info nvu
[03:17] <ubotu> Package nvu does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[03:17] <julius> Is it possible to burn an ext3 DVD ? O_o
[03:18] <idefixx> vigneswari: no.. i dont even have gnome here sry.. was just a guess. what is your problem with the panel?
[03:18] <aMMuNix> why can't I resize my ext3 partition?
[03:18] <Frogzoo> aMMuNix: you can, but you can't move the start of the partition - use gparted
[03:19] <vigneswari> idefixx, no probs yeah. i want to customize
[03:19] <LokiListens> frogzoo, reboot made no difference, i continue to google
[03:19] <aMMuNix> what do you mean the start of the partition Frogzoo?
[03:19] <aMMuNix> and I am using GParted, that option cannot be clicked Frogzoo
[03:20] <Frogzoo> LokiListens: this is silly, it should just work - can you at least mount the dvd?
[03:21] <idefixx> julius: i justed check with my own local repo. when it says ignore here the Packages file is missing, but the dir exists. does the file still start with a capital 'P'?
[03:21] <LokiListens> frogzoo, "unable to mount, there may be no media in drive"
[03:21] <aMMuNix> Frogzoo, what do I have to do in order to resize it then? (all I want is to take some free space out of it)
[03:21] <julius> idefixx, I don't understand ? which file ? Packages.gz ?
[03:21] <Frogzoo> LokiListens: /var/log/messages might give a clue
[03:22] <idefixx> julius: yes
[03:22] <Frogzoo> aMMuNix: just run gparted & wind back the size
[03:22] <LokiListens> frogzoo, okay, is that a gedit?
[03:22] <aMMuNix> Frogzoo, I am, the resize option cannot be clicked
[03:22] <Frogzoo> LokiListens: learn to use 'less'
[03:22] <Jimmey> aMMuNix, right click on the partition, click "umount"
[03:23] <Frogzoo> aMMuNix: oh, cos the partition is mounted - you'll need to boot the livecd & resize
[03:23] <aMMuNix> ah
[03:23] <vigneswari> which package is responsible for bringing the panel with log out, hibernate, switch user, shutdown icons
[03:23] <zmeiat_joro> how do I add an entry in /boot/grub/menu.lst for debian? I have ubuntu installed and I installed debian too but in the end it failed to change grub
[03:23] <aMMuNix> I'll do that Frogzoo, thanks
[03:23] <Poromenos> how do i zip something from stdin?
[03:23] <julius> idefixx, yes there's a capital
[03:23] <zmeiat_joro> http://grub.enbug.org/Debian ?
[03:23] <julius> idefixx, I did this : http://www.howtoforge.com/dvd_images_of_ubuntu_repositories
[03:24] <fathor> hy
[03:24] <julius> but I didn't make iso files... I burn the directory. This can be the problem... But why ?
[03:24] <LokiListens> frogzoo, i have no log directory in /var
[03:24] <iratsu> what does rc mean in `dpkg-l`?
[03:24] <idefixx> julius: let me see.. also check for the Release file it should be there, too.
[03:25] <julius> hmmm
[03:25] <julius> I try with the .iso
[03:26] <idefixx> julius: howto sounds good never mirrored stuff to a dvd but i know debpartial works just fine.. i've got no idea why that wouldnt work.
[03:28] <jrib> iratsu: the first two lines of output explain: r is for Removed and c is for Config-files
[03:28] <julius> idefixx, i think the options of making the iso will help (sorry for the bad english)
[03:28] <julius> I try this and I'll tell you if it works
[03:28] <general> anyone : Er, can I get some help regarding XFCE?
[03:28] <thmcmahon> !anyone | general
[03:28] <ubotu> general: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[03:28] <general> ubotu : okay, sorry. I need to install XFCE on Ubuntu but don't want to install the entire xubuntu-desktop package because it replaces the bootscreen and all. So, should apt-get install xfce work?
[03:28] <linuxor> Salut, quel logiciel me permet de faire defiler mes photos avec une music en ariere plan? merci bcp
[03:29] <confusednoob> where can i find a very indepth step by step guide to compiling from source?
[03:29] <thmcmahon> general: why don't you want to replace the boot screen
[03:29] <magnetron> !fr | linuxor
[03:29] <ubotu> linuxor: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[03:29] <idefixx> julius: well but the howto states to use 'apt-crom' to add the repo? did you do that? because i wounder why you still got 'deb file:/...' in your sources.list.
[03:29] <Jack_Sparrow> julius: I am back.. Did you get it figured out yet?
[03:30] <LokiListens> frogzoo, thanks for all the help.  i'll keep trying from here.  if you think of anything, PM me, please
[03:30] <general> thmcmahon : I want to retain my GNOME desktop and the default bootscreen etc. I'd only like to try XFCE. I haven't decided to switch to it yet.
[03:30] <linuxor> ubotu, sorry

[03:31] <markymarkus> Hi folks
[03:31] <markymarkus> how do i change my encoding to Latin1?
[03:31] <Wips> is it possible to install Windows on another partition after I've installed Ubuntu?
[03:31] <thmcmahon> general: ah ok, just type "sudo apt-get install xfce4"
[03:31] <alesan> re
[03:31] <Me2resh> anybody here has good experience with webmin ?
[03:31] <general> thmcmahon : Okay, thanks a lot!
[03:31] <markymarkus> how do i change my encoding to Latin1?
[03:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Wips: YEs, but Windows is the one that will fight you later if it is not the first OS on the first drive
[03:32] <Wips> Jack_Sparrow: Oh, in what ways?
[03:32] <aMMuNix> Frogzoo, you there?
[03:32] <jli> general: just do apt-get -s install xubuntu-desktop (i think) and it'll give you a list of all the packages that get installed. copy and paste those into a text editor and remove the ones you don't want and then apt-get install those
[03:32] <JuJuBee> What should I be using to authenticate in a client server environment?  I tried NIS (broken) and LDAP(cant get to work).
[03:32] <Frogzoo> aMMuNix: aye
[03:32] <aMMuNix> Frogzoo, I'm now talking from the LiveCD, it gives me a different error now
[03:32] <general> jli : Okay, I'll try that.
[03:33] <jli> general: don't forget the -s !
[03:33] <aMMuNix> Frogzoo, it says /dev/sda1 is mounted
[03:33] <Frogzoo> aMMuNix: that's bad, it shouldn't
[03:33] <julius> idefixx, I can't do any "ls" on the dvd. I think making the iso will solve the problem...
[03:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Wips: I am not awake enough to remember the problems, just that it was a problem
[03:33] <Frogzoo> aMMuNix: well unmount it
[03:33] <general> jli : Yeah, got it :-)
[03:33] <julius> Jack_Sparrow, I'll tell you this in about 30 min :p
[03:33] <aMMuNix> Frogzoo, wow I'm dumb
[03:33] <Wips> Jack_Sparrow: Ok :)
[03:33] <idefixx> julius: i guess so
[03:37] <aMMuNix> Frogzoo, still won't work
[03:37] <Jack_Sparrow> julius: did you post your repo file list?
[03:37] <julius> Jack_Sparrow, what do you mean ? That's only the Ubuntu repo.
[03:37] <Frogzoo> aMMuNix: sure it will
[03:37] <aMMuNix> Frogzoo, it ain't working :P
[03:37] <Jack_Sparrow> julius: I wanted to see how you added your dvd to the repo list
[03:37] <Frogzoo> aMMuNix: is the disk full?
[03:37] <aMMuNix> nop, 60gigs free
[03:37] <idefixx> Jack_Sparrow: pls dont offer advice you seem to know nothing about... again installing windows on any partition is no problem at all.. you should at least be able to explain your concerns.
[03:37] <julius> Jack_Sparrow, just put "deb file:/media/cdrom feisty main" in sources.list for example
[03:37] <steveire> Hey. I'm trying to copy my ubuntu installation to another partition. 'cp -a / /media/disk' would work, but I don't want to include /home in the copy, as it is on a separate partition. Can you help me?
[03:37] <Frogzoo> aMMuNix: you're running gparted?
[03:37] <Jimmey> aMMuNix, are you pressing "apply"?
[03:37] <aMMuNix> yes Frogzoo
[03:37] <julius> but apt-cdrom add should work if the dvd is well burned :p
[03:37] <Tr0nic> what is the best wireless USB adapter for ubuntu (completely compatible) the forums are contradictory on this
[03:37] <aMMuNix> yes Jimmey
[03:37] <Tr0nic> ?
[03:37] <Tr0nic> anyone
[03:37] <aMMuNix> Jimmey, the error comes up when I press apply
[03:37] <Jimmey> aMMuNix, what error?
[03:37] <aMMuNix> Jimmey, it says /dev/sda1 is mounted
[03:37] <Jack_Sparrow> idefixx: It IS a problem to install XP on other than the first partition. Feel fre to do whatever you want
[03:37] <aMMuNix> Jimmey, and I keep unmounting, but it keeps mounting back
[03:37] <Tr0nic> feisty
[03:37] <Jimmey> aMMuNix, ahh.
[03:37] <Jimmey> aMMuNix, maybe you need to edit /etc/fstab
[03:37] <rb008> I'm trying to load fiesty on an external USB hard drive.  So far it has failed twice (both times shows MBR error 3 and then MBR error 1).  I'm installing it now for a third time, and I'm in the "Advanced Options" -- it says "Device for boot loader installation: (hd0)"  Should I change this?
[03:37] <aMMuNix> Jimmey, what should I edit in it
[03:37] <Frogzoo> aMMuNix: did you umount the partition??
[03:37] <idefixx> Jack_Sparrow: would you like to elaborate what these problems might be?
[03:37] <Jimmey> Frogzoo, it's getting mounted as again right after
[03:37] <aMMuNix> Frogzoo, right click > unmount? yes
[03:37] <Jimmey> aMMuNix, remove the reference to sda1
[03:37] <Frogzoo> aMMuNix: close gparted, unmount all mounted hdd partitions, rerun gparted
[03:37] <Jack_Sparrow> idefixx: Sure, there are problems reinstalling grub, there were issues with the mbr...
[03:37] <aMMuNix> how do I do that Frogzoo?
[03:38] <markymarkus> could someone tell me how to change the encoding to Latin1?
[03:38] <vigneswari> which package is responsible for bringing the panel with log out, hibernate, switch user, shutdown icons
[03:39] <julius> markymarkus, where ?
[03:39] <tck> question, every time i boot my laptop i have to keep setting up my WPA2 network via network manager
[03:39] <tck> anyway around this?
[03:39] <brk3> hi just wondering does anyone here use a wallpaper switcher and if so what one Im having a hard time finding a good one!
[03:39] <idefixx> Jack_Sparrow: grub is usually installed into the mbr which is just the first 512k of your hd0/hda whatever... windows has nothing to do with grub by the way. it just chainloads to the windows bootsector which is the first 512k of the windows partition. and it doesnt at all matter where this partition is.
[03:39] <aMMuNix> Frogzoo, can you please explain how can I unmount all hdds?
[03:39] <Jimmey> brk3, wallpaper-tray works with some fiddling
[03:40] <ror> I can't get the nvidia module to load with the latest kernel
[03:40] <Jimmey> aMMuNix, I think sudo umount -a will do that
[03:40] <brk3> hey tck :)
[03:41] <tck> hullo brk3
[03:41] <brk3> tck: still hang about on #2600?
[03:41] <bmh> idefixx, I think Jack_Sparrow means that if you install windows after something linuxy then you have to reinstall grub because windows will overwrite the mbr without asking.
[03:41] <tck> nope ;)
[03:41] <Jack_Sparrow> idefixx: How long have you been in this channel?
[03:41] <aldin> hi, why is my selfcompiled "initrd" so bigger than ubuntu default one:
[03:41] <tck> they hang out on silcnet 2600 server now
[03:41] <aldin> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root  48M 2007-06-13 15:40 initrd.img-2.6.21.5
[03:41] <tck> check website ;)
[03:41] <wangking> Hi,I'm a new linux user.
[03:41] <aldin> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6.7M 2007-06-01 15:15 initrd.img-2.6.20-15-generic
[03:41] <brk3> tck: ya i know, just never bothered with it once they changed
[03:41] <carlosqueso> !welcome | wangking
[03:41] <ubotu> wangking: Welcome to #ubuntu - the Ubuntu support channel.
[03:42] <Jack_Sparrow> bmh: It goes beyond just overwriting the mbr and a simple reinstallation of the grub.
[03:42] <kitche> aldin: you probably added everything intot he initrd image that you could most likely ubuntu didn't
[03:42] <brk3> tck: you just not bother with it anymore either?
[03:42] <idefixx> bmh: no he keeps telling ppl windows 'has to be installed' to the first part first hd.. and he isnt talking about the mbr but about the windows data. i keep telling him to stop that :)
[03:42] <tck> brk3, chick takes up so much time
[03:42] <aMMuNix> Jimmey, everytime I open GParted, it opens a new browser window with the name "disk" with my HDD
[03:42] <brk3> tck: lol
[03:42] <tck> only getting back into linux the last week
[03:42] <aldin> kitche: yes, but how to reduce it? btw i used this command sudo mkinitrd -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.21.5 2.6.21.5
[03:42] <tck> anyways, less talk, need to get back to study ;)
[03:42] <brk3> tck: right o
[03:43] <Jack_Sparrow> idefixx: I did not say it HAD to be the  first OS ... it just works better that way.
[03:43] <brk3> tck: just an idea for your question, network manager kind of sucks, try wifi-radar
[03:43] <aMMuNix> Jimmey, I'm going crazy, each unmount, mounts it back up
[03:43] <idefixx> Jack_Sparrow: why does it matter how long i've been here, i seem to know a lot more about the issue at hand, just proof me wrong.
[03:43] <Joelio> Is anyone else having an issue with X? My gnome's seriously broken after an apt-get upgrade!
[03:44] <tck> wifi-radar does not support g only b
[03:44] <jungo> hey, i can access my samba share from my windows laptop, but not vice versa, anyone know what the deal is?
[03:44] <tck> afaik
[03:44] <idefixx> Jack_Sparrow: there is NO reason for it beeing installed on the first partition other than speed.
[03:48] <brk3> tck: mine seems to suppport both, maybe you need to upgrade?
[03:48] <lt_> i followed the guide, but my soundblaster doesnt work..
[03:48] <Joelio> My X session keeps getting killed?!? It happens for every desktop manager.. I've apt-get upgraded today, what the hell's happened?
[03:48] <tck> i'll check it out :)
[03:48] <kitche> Joelio: no clue but check your Xorg.0.log it should tell you why it keeps crashing
[03:48] <Jack_Sparrow> idefixx: Fine.. I will get a link with people having problems and XP on other than the first os on the first partition.  And YES it does matter how long you have been working the channel as you see the problems that come up with things like that..
[03:48] <ubuntu-rocks> if i'm only using 1 hd, do i bother with LVM? i'm installing feisty on a new box
[03:48] <aMMuNix> anyone know why can't I unmount my hdd so I can resize it? (I'm in the liveCD right now, each unmount to the HD, mounts it back up)
[03:48] <kitche> Joelio: sicne withoutthat we can't help you much anyways since X can crash for many reasons
[03:48] <kitche> aMMuNix: how are you trying to umount it?

[03:48] <jungo> hey, i can access my samba share from my windows laptop, but not vice versa, anyone know what the deal is?
[03:48] <lt_> i chek out the alsa webpage, but the exactly name of my soundcard isnt in the list
[03:48] <Jimmey> aMMuNix, I think that the only way is to remove the lines containing "sda1" from /etc/fstab
[03:48] <Joelio> kitche: I'm on X now though, using fail-safe gnome.. so tailing the logs doesn't show the error.
[03:48] <carlosqueso> aMMuNix: you might have better luck with the gparted live cd: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[03:48] <aMMuNix> Jimmey, there's no sda1 in fstab

[03:49] <jungo> could anybody help out? i can't access my windows network share from ubuntu but i can access my samba share from windows.
[03:49] <aMMuNix> Jimmey, there was no reference

[03:53] <aMMuNix> Jimmey, I unmounted using GParted, which of course mounted it back up, then GParted still though it was unmounted, so I unmounted in a terminal, and no errors so far

[04:06] <psst> if I have the ubuntu cd image and I need the alternate ubuntu cd image, is there some clever, low-bandwidth way I can get it?
[04:06] <kdubois> Joelio, *probably* your xorg.conf file is screwed up somehow
[04:07] <idefixx> psst: no.. you cant convert the live-cd to an alternate cd. if that is what you're getting at.
[04:07] <yaser_> how do i execute a program in another tab
[04:07] <kdubois> easiest fix for that is to pop in a live CD, email the xorg.conf file that the live CD generates to yourself and replace the one on your HDD install

Is there anyway I can create a loader that will format and install the iso from one harddrive onto another???
[04:17] <AshyIsMe> Pici: thanks

[04:19] <KomiaPoika> why is there no cups package in 7.04?
[04:20] <Stormx2> Hawkins: That's it querying DNS...
[04:20] <preaction> qiyong: there's a hook inside bash when "command not found" error happens.
[04:20] <Stormx2> Hawkins: is your connection the same speed?
[04:20] <Pici> KomiaPoika: There is.
[04:20] <mcontrer> Maracontreras1998@hotmail.com

[04:23] <KomiaPoika> oh, thanks
[04:23] <preaction> johan_: the deb ones are easy: apt-get remove <package>, but again, the tarballs have to be uninstalled by removing the files that were added manually

[04:27] <Stormx2> Almagesto: You screwed X up?
[04:28] <Almagesto> no it works and beryl too
[04:28] <Chops`> hi, i am having a problem with my Ubuntu install. I have installed it using the Live CD, now the system has restarted but hangs when it goes to the ubuntu splash screen with the progress bar only slightly filled
[04:28] <Stormx2> Almagesto: What's the issue then?
[04:28] <Chops`> booting in recovery mode shows
[04:28] <Chops`> Begin: Waiting for root file system... ...
[04:28] <Stormx2> Hmm
[04:28] <Almagesto> I've tried to install ATI drivers but something gone wrong
[04:28] <Stormx2> Looks like grub has got the wrong end of the stick.
[04:28] <Stormx2> Almagesto: What is wrong?
[04:28] <binvij> Chops: must be an issue with graphics card
[04:28] <Chops`> [ 25.08194]  FDC 0 is a post-1991 82077
[04:29] <Sergo> ALLIGATOR :)
[04:29] <Stormx2> binvij: Why do you say that? o.O
[04:29] <johan_> use commands like :sudo apt-get install ruby rdoc irb libyaml-ruby libzlib-ruby ri ruby1.8-dev , and download the tar file to install manually in /usr/local/ruby
[04:29] <ALLIGATOR> Sergo sexos :)
[04:29] <bullgard4> void^: man route does not explain the name 'Genmask'. It only uses ist without explaining where the name comes from. Did you read man route before?
[04:29] <Stormx2> Chops`: Chances are its grub has got the "kernel" line wrong.
[04:29] <Chops`> ok
[04:29] <Chops`> well
[04:29] <Sergo> alligator: aici coroce pt mat te avertizeza cu
[04:29] <idefixx> bullgard4: it does i posted it...
[04:29] <Chops`> during the intial install
[04:29] <Sergo> !language
[04:29] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[04:29] <Chops`> to get the livecd to boot
[04:29] <primski> what does that got to do with graphics card ? :o
[04:29] <johan_> by now i'm definetly confusing...
[04:29] <Almagesto> if i type fglrxinfo it tells me: The program 'fglrxinfo' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
[04:29] <Almagesto> sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx
[04:29] <Hawkins> kitche, I'll reboot now and report if it helped.
[04:29] <Sergo> )
[04:29] <Chops`> i had to add acpi=off to the boot line
[04:30] <Almagesto> if I do that nothing works more
[04:30] <Chops`> but i cant work out how to add acpi=off to the bootline for a normal boot
[04:30] <Stormx2> bullgard4: Google: define:genmask
[04:30] <Sergo> ALLIGATOR: sa'ti zic inca un, feenode e mult mai user-friendly decit undernet
[04:30] <Sergo> :)
[04:30] <bullgard4> idefixx: I have read what you wrote. You simply repeated a passage from man route but you did not answer my question.
[04:30] <ALLIGATOR> Sergo da de ce nui @ ?
[04:31] <idefixx> bullgard4: wasnt your question what Genmask means?
[04:31] <Chops`> Stormx2 - i left it for ages and got: Check root= bootarg cat /proc/cmdline or missing modules, devices: cat /proc/modules ls /dev
[04:31] <Sergo> ALLIGATOR: aici e chanserv ca X, pe dinsu poti sa'l scoti de pe canal ca pe x
[04:31] <Almagesto> If I try to enable ATI restricted drivers it tells me that the hardware doesn't need restricted drivers
[04:31] <bullgard4> Stormx2: Thank you very much for your advise. What do you think I havwe done before I posted here?
[04:31] <Chops`> Stormx2 - ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/37130540-......... does not exists. Dropping to shell!
[04:31] <ALLIGATOR> Sergo aista e cel mai mare canal ?
[04:31] <bullgard4> idefixx: No. I want to know where the name comes from.
[04:31] <void^> bullgard4: sorry, i assumed you were interested in the functionality and not linguistic history of the term :] 
[04:31] <Stormx2> primski: The solution would be: Boot into the live cd, figure out which partition is your route partition (e.g. /dev/hda1). Mount it. Locate /boot/grub, edit menu.lst. Replace stuff like "UUID=z8f8g77hg9h7ghd9gh76dg" with /dev/hda1
[04:31] <crdlb> Almagesto, what ati card?
[04:32] <Stormx2> Chops`: yeah, that's what I thought it might be.
[04:32] <Sergo> ALLIGATOR: nu stiu daca e cel mai mare , acus vedem
[04:32] <wastrel> "feinsty"
[04:32] <Sergo> /status
[04:32] <Chops`> ah, how would i go about fixing this Stormx2?
[04:32] <Almagesto> radeon 9600
[04:32] <primski> stormx2: yea, probably, and then generate the uuid againg and start over, been there done that :P
[04:32] <Stormx2> Uhg.
[04:32] <Hawkins> kitche, Nope didn't do the trick, next I'll try that Open DNS thing Stormx2 suggested
[04:32] <crdlb> Almagesto, you realize that fglrx will work worse with beryl than the free driver right?
[04:33] <Stormx2> Who here is having issues with the boot. is it primski or Chops` ? o.O
[04:33] <Stormx2> I'm kinda tired.
[04:33] <Chops`> me
[04:33] <primski> not me
[04:33] <primski> :d
[04:33] <primski> gl mate ;)
[04:33] <idefixx> bullgard4: well since it can mean more than one thing.. i'd guess it means generic mask.. what else.
[04:33] <Stormx2> The advice i gave to primski was meant for Chops`
[04:33] <Stormx2> :)
[04:33] <Stormx2> Chops`, The solution would be: Boot into the live cd, figure out which partition is your route partition (e.g. /dev/hda1). Mount it. Locate /boot/grub, edit menu.lst. Replace stuff like "UUID=z8f8g77hg9h7ghd9gh76dg" with /dev/hda1
[04:33] <Chops`> can i point out that I am a windows user, this is my first linux install :S
[04:33] <Sergo> ALLIGATOR: nus precis da credca e cel mai mare
[04:33] <Stormx2> bullgard4: Well you're above 90% of the channel then.
[04:33] <Sergo> -)
[04:33] <hatter> how do i reinstall the libraries for opengl / mesa ?
[04:34] <Almagesto> no I just tried to install ATI drivers following the wiki, but Beryl was working no more
[04:34] <bullgard4> idefixx: Someone told me it means 'generate mask', and I could not confirm that.
[04:34] <Stormx2> Chops`: Well, boot into the livecd and open Gaim. Connect to IRC like you are now, and I'll walk you through it.
[04:34] <Chops`> i had the pc next to me
[04:34] <crdlb> Almagesto, so beryl is broken now because you installed the proprietary driver?
[04:34] <Chops`> :p
[04:34] <Stormx2> Ah okay
[04:34] <Chops`> have*
[04:34] <AtSquiggs> how can I get reolve this? libkadm55: Depends: libkrb53 (= 1.4.3-5) but 1.4.3-5ubuntu0.3 is to be installed
[04:34] <crdlb> hatter, what video card?
[04:34] <Stormx2> Chops`: Okay. Boot the live CD. Tell me when you're done.
[04:35] <Sergo> Alligator: bun dar eu ies
[04:35] <Almagesto> it was broken, now it works but I am not able to install proprietary drivers again
[04:35] <Stormx2> AtSquiggs: Where are you installing libkadm55 from? the official repos?
[04:35] <hatter> crdlb, ati 9200., using the radeon driver,  ldd /usr/bin/glxinfo says libgl.so.1 => not found
[04:35] <Chops`> Stormx2 - i have to add acpi=off to the boot line to get the livecd to boot
[04:35] <Almagesto> I'd like to make beryl work with ati drivers
[04:35] <crdlb> hatter, sudo apt-get --reinstall install libgl1-mesa-glx
[04:35] <Chops`> using F6
[04:35] <AtSquiggs> stormx2 - I thought so.  I'm running server 6, does that matter?
[04:35] <Stormx2> Chops`: Okay, do that then.
[04:36] <dredhammer> hello has anyone else been experiencing slow burn times using gnomebaker in feisty?
[04:36] <crdlb> Almagesto, beryl with the proprietary driver is extremely difficult and rarely works right
[04:36] <dredhammer> i am creating a 500mb cd iso and it is listing the time as 60 minutes to complete it
[04:36] <hatter> crdlb, thanks so much , that fixed it :)
[04:37] <Stormx2> AtSquiggs: Shouldn't matter. 6.04 or 6.10? Its very odd if you're using the official repos. Could you open your sources.list (in /etc/apt) and check that you don't have any unofficial repos? Comment em out if you do. sudo apt-get update and try again
[04:37] <Chops`> Stormx2 - ok livecd booted
[04:37] <idefixx> bullgard4: i honestly dont know.. usualy it helps to check the source for comments :)
[04:37] <kaktuskatta> Hi! I've just upgraded to Feisty from Edgy. I'm experiencing videoproblems after the upgrade. I
[04:37] <Stormx2> Chops`: Applications > Accessories > Terminal
[04:37] <Stormx2> Chops`: Run sudo fdisk -l
[04:37] <Chops`> will do
[04:37] <Almagesto> but why if I try to apply restricted drivers it tells me that current hw doesn't need restricted drivers?
[04:38] <Stormx2> Chops`: Then open firefox, go to www.pastebin.com, and paste the output in there. It will give you a link. Hand me back the link.
[04:38] <AtSquiggs> ok let me check
[04:38] <idefixx> bullgard4: maybe its just one of these things like 'inode' nobdy knows what it means. information node or index node...
[04:38] <kaktuskatta> I've managed to install the drivers, and the card is detected and all, but only as root! If I run fglrxinfo as normal user, I get the mesadrivers, but if i sudo the same command I get the proper info. Which files need changing of permission to fix this?
[04:38] <dredhammer> hello has anyone else been experiencing slow burn times using gnomebaker in feisty?
[04:38] <dredhammer> i am creating a 500mb cd iso and it is listing the time as 60 minutes to complete it
[04:38] <matt__> what is the easiest way to encode videos for the video ipod? first i'd just like to know how to, for example, take an .avi and encode it...
[04:39] <AtSquiggs> if this line is in, I get an error when I try to do an apt-get update, deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper-security main restricted
[04:39] <kitche> dredhammer: it's probbaly just using a slow speed
[04:39] <Stormx2> Chops: Oh, also. How many hard drives do you have, and if more than 1, which one is ubuntu installed on?
[04:39] <kaktuskatta> a hint would be much appreciated ;)
[04:39] <nathanj> can anyone help with a tv card?
[04:39] <hatter> ah, now i get error: couldnt get an rgb , double-buffered visual
[04:39] <bullgard4> idefixx: If the situation resembles that of 'inode' I will give in.
[04:39] <Almagesto> and if I type fglrxinfo: The program 'fglrxinfo' is currently not installed
[04:39] <kaktuskatta> nathanj: maybe...what's the problem
[04:39] <Stormx2> dredhammer: Ack, what is it called. DMA I think. You need that enabled :)
[04:39] <dredhammer> but its the iso image creation not a burn to the cd-r yet
[04:39] <Chops`> pastebin doesnt seem to be working, ill use another
[04:39] <Pici> !dma
[04:39] <ubotu> dma is Direct Memory Access/Addressing. It makes hard disks & optical drives transfer data faster, and is almost always enabled in Ubuntu 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DMA
[04:39] <Stormx2> dredhammer: i recommend you use k3b for burning. it's a much better burner.
[04:40] <nathanj> kaktuskatta it comes up as a bttv0 under dvb0 in dmesg but tvtime/mythtv doesn't find it :s
[04:44] <Stormx2> Chops`: I tend to use pastebin.ca, even though I'm from the UK.
[04:44] <Stormx2> =)
[04:44] <matt__> Pici: is dma usually turned on it feisty? i was wondering this the other day, if how can i check
[04:44] <dredhammer> shouldn't DMA be on by default in Feisty?
[04:44] <Stormx2> I just did a clean feisty install
[04:44] <Stormx2> Let me check
[04:44] <kaktuskatta> nathanj: And the card is listed when you run lspci?
[04:44] <matt__> Stormx2: how can you check..
[04:44] <AtSquiggs> storm2 - http://pastebin.ca/564269
[04:44] <Pici> matt__: sudo hdparm /dev/devicename | grep dma
[04:44] <nathanj> kaktuskatta yup as a bt878 card
[04:44] <Stormx2> matt__: sudo hdparm /dev/hdc
[04:44] <anke> !nvidia
[04:44] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:44] <Hawkins> Stormx2, Million thanks. Using Open DNS solved my annoying browsing lag =)
[04:44] <Stormx2> Its enabled by default for both my CD drives.
[04:44] <Stormx2> Hawkins: ooh good :)
[04:44] <Chops`> Stormx2 - http://rafb.net/p/NJ6H1e69.html
[04:44] <tbk> rap
[04:44] <tbk> where to get codec
[04:44] <Pici> tbk: rap?
[04:44] <Stormx2> lol
[04:44] <Stormx2> xD
[04:44] <kaktuskatta> nathanj: I assume that youve checked the input settings in tvtime...?
[04:44] <Stormx2> That was pretty funny tbk
[04:44] <matt__> Pici: I did sudo hdparm /dev/dvdrw |grep dma, it told me HDIO_GETGEO failed:Inappropriate ioctl for device
[04:44] <nathanj> kaktuskatta no inputs come up ;s
[04:44] <Stormx2> AtSquiggs: They're all official. Run a sudo apt-get update and try again
[04:44] <Stormx2> AtSquiggs: if it still doesn't work, google the error.
[04:44] <kaktuskatta> Mine works fine with tvtime, I only had problems with sound
[04:44] <kaktuskatta> Hmm...who's the manufacturer of the card?
[04:44] <nathanj> kaktuskatta its a dvico dvb-t lite
[04:44] <Pici> matt__: Take a look here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DMA
[04:44] <matt__> Stormx2: i ran sudo hdparm /dev/dvdrw, this is what i got.
[04:44] <matt__> /dev/dvdrw: IO_support   =  0 (default 16-bit) readonly     =  0 (off) readahead    = 256 (on) HDIO_GETGEO failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device
[04:44] <Stormx2> Chops`: Okay, looks like a pretty generic install, good.
[04:44] <nathanj> kaktuskatta are options suspose to come under "video source"
[04:44] <nathanj> ?
[04:44] <Chops`> :D
[04:44] <AtSquiggs> this is what I'm getting, http://pastebin.ca/564279
[04:44] <Stormx2> matt__: I'm not sure DMA is used on DVDs? No idea. I get that error too.
[04:44] <Hawkins> How do I get better resolution than 1024x768 which is quite ugly. Editing xorg.conf does not help nor does using dpkg-reconfigure. I've got Radeon X850XT and ATI drivers working.
[04:45] <M_Fatih> how can i start non-graphical text based installer in ubuntu live cd?
[04:45] <AtSquiggs> it's like it's trying to bzip2 when it should be using gzip :)
[04:45] <Stormx2> Chops`: Go back to that terminal, or open a new one. Run this:
[04:45] <matt__> Stormx2: umm..i think so, i ran into that when trying to setup dvd decrypter in wine,it works, but slow, it asked me to turn on dma in the tutorial
[04:45] <kaktuskatta> nathanj: well, to be honest I'm not sure
[04:45] <matt__> Stormx2: http://mrbass.org/linux/ubuntu/dvdshrink/
[04:45] <kaktuskatta> nathanj: have you been here: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/DViCO_FusionHDTV_DVB-T_Lite ?

[04:46] <kaktuskatta> I'm experiencing problems with my ATi radeon after an upgrade to Feisty. I've managed to install the drivers, and the card is detected and all, but only as root! If I run fglrxinfo as normal user, I get the mesadrivers, but if i sudo the same command I get the proper info. Which files need changing of permission to fix this?
[04:46] <Stormx2> matt__: dvd decrypter in wine? o.O You know you can do that with css?
[04:46] <wastrel> M_Fatih:  open a terminal and type "nano"
[04:46] <Chops`> Stormx2 - ok
[04:46] <matt__> Stormx2: what do you mean, in css?

[04:47] <M_Fatih> i want to start installer at live cd's boot grub menu
[04:47] <M_Fatih> text installer
[04:47] <wastrel> M_Fatih:  sorry i thought i read text editor :] 
[04:47] <M_Fatih> :)
[04:47] <dfarje> hey guys
[04:47] <M_Fatih> haha, np
[04:47] <wastrel> there's no text installer on the livecd.  you need the "alternate cd"
[04:47] <Stormx2> M_Fatih: The live cd doesn't have a grub menu...
[04:47] <dfarje> I have trouble installing java
[04:47] <sirbooboo> Stormx2: that cd /var/log && ls-l did not work. I found a xorg.log is that it?
[04:47] <matt__> Stormx2: oh, i know what you are talking about...but this rips the disk to your hard disk unencrypted. can you do that with css? (serious question)
[04:47] <assobachant> bon tous a pour vous dire que je suis retourn chez bill        ou pas bien ; mais que je reviens bientt.........

[04:47] <assobachant> @llez ce soir je vous lit
[04:47] <Stormx2> sirbooboo: You need a space, "ls -l", but it doesn't matter. Yeah, nano xorg.log

[04:48] <assobachant> yo a pas vu dsl m'enfin bonsoir quand mme @++
[04:48] <Stormx2> matt__: You need libdvdcss2 for READING dvds. You can use k9copy to copy them to your hard drive (unencrypted or otherwise)
[04:48] <nathanj> kaktuskatta it looks like its trying to open /dev/video0 not /dev/dvb0 :D
[04:48] <BlueDevil> Frogzoo: please help
[04:48] <sirbooboo> stormX2: When I nano xorg.log there is a bunch of stuff in there; at the end it says fatal server error: no severs found.
[04:48] <matt__> Stormx2: i have libdvdcss2, but k9, does it work?
[04:49] <Stormx2> sirbooboo; look for the first line with (EE) near the start
[04:49] <kaktuskatta> Anyone here with experience on the setup of ATi cards  under linux?

[04:49] <Chops`> Stormx2 - sorry didnt know if you saw or not, i have done that mounting and stuff
[04:49] <matt__> Stormx2: lol, ok
[04:49] <Stormx2> Chops`: Goodo.

[04:50] <sean_> whats the command to get the !ubotu bot to talk to me about getting my windows hd's recognized?

[04:51] <kaktuskatta> hmm....I think there is a command that can "route" the signal to the video0 port, but I'm not sure which ....:-| Maybe you can change some conf. file for your TV-app aswell?

[04:51] <Chops`> Stormx2 - do you mean menu.lst?
[04:51] <Stormx2> Chops`: Yeah I do, heh.
[04:51] <kaktuskatta> Stormx2: I've managed to install the drivers, but I'm only getting the correct info from fglrxinfo when I run it as root!
[04:51] <Stormx2> Chops`: I haven't had much sleep :)
[04:51] <CheshireViking> Stormx2, it was for sean_ , but i got the wrong one & missed the nick off by mistake
[04:52] <Stormx2> haha
[04:52] <AtSquiggs> stormx2 - fixed it!  I removed the files from /var/lib/apt/lists/partial and then apt-get update worked.  thanks for your help
[04:52] <Stormx2> ah okay, sorry.
[04:52] <Chops`> Stormx2 - lol, ok, that file is open now
[04:52] <Stormx2> AtSquiggs: Ooh good.
[04:52] <sirbooboo> stormx2: can I access that file from XP?
[04:52] <kaktuskatta> Stormx2: Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be anyone else here with the same problem.... :-|
[04:52] <Stormx2> Chops`: Locate a line containing "UUID=", and then paste me that specific line. You don't need to use a pastebin to paste 1 line.
[04:53] <BlueDevil> where can i get a kernel package with PAE enabled?
[04:53] <Stormx2> sirbooboo: You'll need to install additional drivers to read ext3 from windows, but it isn't hard.
[04:53] <AtSquiggs> have a good day guys!
[04:54] <sirbooboo> stormx2: can you tell me how?
[04:54] <yaser_> hello, how do i execute a program in another terminal?
[04:54] <Chops`> Stormx2 - /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-generic root=UUID=37a30540-299c-4220-bcf1-fe4eed410239 ro quiet splash
[04:54] <Stormx2> sirbooboo: Sure. Let me quickly check which driver I use
[04:54] <Stormx2> yaser_: Open another terminal? Open a new tab?
[04:54] <MitchM> !mondo
[04:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mondo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:55] <yaser_> Stormx2, from a script, execute a program in another tab
[04:55] <Stormx2> Chops`: I want you to do a find and replace on the file. There is an option in the menus "replace". Replace: "UUID=37a30540-299c-4220-bcf1-fe4eed410239" with "/dev/hda1" throughout the entire file.
[04:55] <matt__> Stormx2: thanks for the suggestion, k9 looks great, however, i do have a question, it has an option for "mpg4). isn't that what an ipod uses for video? i was going to try it, however, it saves it as an .avi. any knowledge there?
[04:55] <Stormx2> yaser_: You can fork it with a ampersand (&) at the end.
[04:55] <Chops`> ok Stormx2 - and then reboot and it works? :D
[04:55] <CheshireViking> sirbooboo, try http://www.fs-driver.org/ - thats what i use to access my ubuntu partitions from windows
[04:56] <DJ-_-> how do i set a visible_hostname permanently via CLI
[04:56] <yaser_> Stormx2, i want it in another tab
[04:56] <Stormx2> matt__: None. I don't actually have a DVD drive. Does k9 allow you to edit a gstreamer pipeline. if so, you could figure that out.
[04:56] <Stormx2> yaser_: Uhg.
[04:56] <void^> matt__: mpeg4 means any divx-like codec, not mp4
[04:56] <DJ-_-> not squid or stuff, is there a way to add a hostname permanently
[04:56] <Stormx2> yaser_: I'm not sure that's possible. Check man gnome-terminal
[04:56] <matt__> Stormx2: um..ill look into that, so i guess i'll need to find the exact specifications for ipod video...
[05:00] <yaser_> Stormx2, ok
[05:00] <matt__> void^: ok ok, so what do i need to do? do you know how i could encode it for the ipod?
[05:00] <Stormx2> matt__: Do some googling, and also check ubuntuforums.org
[05:00] <matt__> Stormx2: i don't know what i haven't thought to look there...
[05:00] <ubuntu> people my xconf crashed i'm using the live cd how can i restore my linux?
[05:00] <_Ahti> could someone tell me if Mplayer (and the mozilla plugins) has a cache anywhere on my computer where a file is stored when i view a movie file online?
[05:00] <void^> matt__: i know nothing about ipods. i guess some sort of h264/avc+aac combination in an mp4 container.
[05:00] <Stormx2> ubuntu: Your xorg "crashed"? Just reboot.
[05:00] <Stormx2> ubuntu: or do you mean you've editted the config and now it doesn't work?
[05:00] <ubuntu> Stormx2: i tried many times i get a blue screen
[05:00] <matt__> void^: i think that sounds right.
[05:00] <Stormx2> Guys, I'm only staying here until Chops` sorts out his problem.
[05:00] <DJ-_-> ok, anyone know how to properly configure torrentflux?
[05:00] <_Ahti> !bluescreen
[05:00] <axisys> how do I limit number of ssh login attempt for a user?
[05:00] <Stormx2> ubuntu: With what error?
[05:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bluescreen - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:00] <novato_br> ubuntu, saw novato_br ?
[05:00] <kitche> ubuntu: jsut means you need to configure X or use the alternate cd
[05:00] <_Ahti> !blue
[05:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about blue - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:00] <Chops`> Stormx2: ok replaced all that
[05:00] <Stormx2> Chops`: Sure you did it absolutely correct and replaced all occurances? :)
[05:00] <novato_br> what's the bot of this channel ?
[05:00] <Chops`> it replaced 3 occurances
[05:00] <DJ-_-> !torrentflux
[05:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about torrentflux - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:00] <kitche> novato_br: ubotu
[05:00] <CheshireViking> !bot | novato_br
[05:00] <ubotu> novato_br: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[05:00] <novato_br> ubotu, saw novato_br ?
[05:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about saw novato_br ? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:00] <ubuntu> Stormx2: i tried to configure nvidia drivers ind linux crashed
[05:00] <novato_br> is it smart ?
[05:00] <kitche> !fishing | novato_br
[05:00] <ubotu> novato_br: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[05:00] <Stormx2> Chops`: Hmm. I've just realised a potential problem, but chances are it won't happen. Save the file, and reboot.
[05:00] <Chops`> right :|
[05:00] <Chops`> lol
[05:00] <novato_br> the bot on br-channel is very idiot
[05:00] <Stormx2> novato_br: That's unpossible!
[05:00] <ubuntu> Stormx2: help please
[05:01] <Stormx2> ubuntu: It will have made a backup. cd /etc/X11
[05:01] <Stormx2> ubuntu: Then, ls -l | grep xorg
[05:01] <Stormx2> ubuntu: Pastebin the output for me.
[05:01] <Chops`> Stormx2 - same problem =(
[05:01] <Stormx2> Chops`: bah!
[05:02] <Chops`> Stormx2 - could i try adding acpi=off to that kernel line?
[05:02] <hgh> Hi, in this howto http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=51611 it says I should do this to create a user "sudo useradd userftp -p your_password -d /home/FTP-shared -s /bin/false". Is "your_password" supposed to be *my* password or the password of the person that will be logging in to my ftp server?
[05:02] <ubuntu> Stormx2:  how to restore or to rolldown the nvidia drivers
[05:02] <akahige> doing a conversion from Ubuntu to Xubuntu (by reinstalling). Got an error during the install. Failed to install libicu36 (and presumably other things that are associated with it, but I didn't see errors). Should I be concerned about this?
[05:02] <Stormx2> ubuntu: I just gave you instructions on that. Follow them.
[05:02] <Stormx2> Chops`: Yeah, possible.
[05:03] <Chops`> and restore the original file that we edited?
[05:03] <Hawkins> How to get resolutions over 1024x768? Editing xorg.conf or using dpkg-reconfigure does not help. I've got Radeon X850XT with ATI drivers working.
[05:03] <Chops`> (i made a backup)
[05:03] <idefixx> hgh: its the pw of the person login' in. not your pw. sudo will ask for you pw when you execute the command.
[05:03] <hgh> idefixx: Thank you
[05:03] <novato_br> he should be little bit smart
[05:03] <kaktuskatta> Hawkins: have you tried aticonfig?
[05:04] <kitche> novato_br: it's just an info bot not a bot to play around with
[05:04] <sirbooboo> StormX2: OK, I installed that EX2 reader. I can access that folder and file now. Is there a way I can send you the log to inspect?
[05:04] <Hawkins> kaktuskatta, no I haven't.
[05:04] <av16ar> hello everybody, I would like to take a screenshot on which the mouse cursor is visible. How can I do it?
[05:04] <idefixx> novato_br: i dont see how !seen makes a bot smart what do you think qualifies as 'smart'??
[05:04] <Stormx2> Chops`: You should remove the new one (sudo rm menu.lst) then copy the backup (sudo cp backupfilename menu.lst)
[05:05] <novato_br> good answers, idefixx
[05:05] <Chops`> Stormx2 - ok ill give it a go
[05:05] <ubuntu> Stormx2: can you explain like to a noob
[05:05] <Stormx2> Chops`: You can edit the file to add the acpi=off line
[05:05] <Chops`> ok
[05:06] <kaktuskatta> Hawkins: that tool might do the trick. If you did a correct installation of the files, it's supposed to work
[05:06] <Stormx2> Chops`: If you need help adding it, pastebin the file.
[05:06] <Pegazz> Hello all, I'm trying to install ubuntu on a extern HD, but I have some problems with the partition editor etc...
[05:06] <idefixx> novato_br: well its answers are not the bots fault... maybe you should talk to the bots maintainer and/or contributers :)
[05:06] <novato_br> on br-channel, i can ask bot for people and it answered if it saw them on channel before
[05:06] <Stormx2> Chops`: Helpful guide here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
[05:07] <Stormx2> ubuntu: Once X crashes, you can get back to a command line, yeah?
[05:07] <novato_br> yep, idefixx
[05:07] <Hawkins> kaktuskatta, I'm quite newbie using linux so could you give me more information how to use it ?
[05:07] <sirbooboo> StormX2: OK, I installed that EX2 reader. I can access that folder and file now. I opened the log with notepad and do not see a first line with EE. Is there a way I can send you the log to inspect?
[05:07] <nuked_omen> how do i force kill a program if everything freezes
[05:08] <idefixx> novato_br: have you ever run a bot. Not having a seen command on this absurd huge channel is pretty smart imo.
[05:08] <Stormx2> sirbooboo: pastebin it.
[05:08] <Stormx2> !paste | sirbooboo

[05:08] <jmail> I am running on Dell 1505, Feisty 7.04.  Until yesterday, I was able to connect wirelessly, altho had trouble consistently accessing network drives.  Today, I cannot connect wirelessly.  I've tried re-ndiswrapper install, and troubleshot dhcp (which FAILs)
[05:08] <novato_br> ok
[05:08] <Stormx2> nuked_omen: Use gnome-system-monitor
[05:08] <Stormx2> nuked_omen: If you prefer to use command line, try "killall appname" (e.g. gedit)
[05:08] <nuked_omen> Stormx2: what if i can't start it
[05:08] <kam1> sers guys i got a wine question-> if installed wine wit this command sudo apt-get install wine ... is it then compiled?
[05:09] <Stormx2> kam1: In a way, yeah
[05:09] <nuked_omen> ok
[05:09] <Stormx2> kam1: When you install a program, it get's the compiled binary, yeah.
[05:09] <kaktuskatta> Hawkins: you'll se the syntax if you run aticonfig in terminal
[05:09] <Stormx2> kam1: But it doesn't compile it. That's already done.
[05:09] <nuked_omen> it is precompiled
[05:10] <Stormx2> nuked_omen: Are you only at a command line?
[05:10] <kam1> oh u mean compiling is done everytime i install sth.?
[05:10] <Stormx2> kam1: No.
[05:10] <sirbooboo> stormx2: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25406/
[05:10] <Stormx2> kam1: The people who put the packages in the repos compile them. You simply download the compiled version.
[05:10] <letronje> hi, is it possible to restart networking services using the network manager ?
[05:10] <nuked_omen> Stormx2: no.. GUI, but sometimes it freezes so bad that i can't do anything with the mouse.. i was thinking of pressing some keys to kill the program like you do with windows (sometimes)
[05:10] <Chops`> Stormx2 - that worked :D
[05:10] <Chops`> well
[05:10] <idefixx> kam1: if you want to compile stuff everytime you install something you'll have to get gentoo. ubuntu works different.
[05:11] <letronje> i have to reset my cable modem when i restart into another OS
[05:11] <Chops`> the bar has gone further this time
[05:11] <shamael002> how do i install java onto my ubuntu version of linux
[05:11] <kam1> oh
[05:11] <kam1> -.- k thats all i wanted to know good that it is already compiled
[05:11] <kam1> thanks a lot
[05:11] <Chops`> Stormx2 - ok thats booted :D thank you so much for your help
[05:11] <Stormx2> Chops`: Fully? Great.
[05:11] <Stormx2> Chops`: Sorry I took you on a wild goose chase a bit.
[05:11] <Chops`> well logining in now
[05:11] <Chops`> hey its fine
[05:12] <void^> !java | shamael002
[05:12] <ubotu> shamael002: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[05:12] <Chops`> i get the impression linux is like that Stormx2 ;)
[05:12] <Stormx2> Chops`: That common is a lot less common than the one I was initially trying to "fix"
[05:12] <Stormx2> Chops`: Ah its fine when everything works :)
[05:12] <letronje> hi, i have to restart my cable modem each time i switch between OSs. so when i reboot to ubuntu from windoze, i have to restart networking services after resetting my cable modem. whats the fastest way to do it thru GUI ?
[05:12] <eyemean> hi, can any1 tell me how to add a picture to the bottom part of the cube (ubuntu feisty compiz)
[05:12] <nuked_omen> i installed java from the default repositories and it sucks bad
[05:12] <eyemean> pls
[05:12] <Chops`> Stormx2 - as is everything :D
[05:12] <nuked_omen> azurues often crashes.. and java in firefox does to
[05:12] <shamael002> thank you ubotu is that all i have todo
[05:12] <nuked_omen> o
[05:13] <Stormx2> nuked_omen: You can go to a command line with Ctrl + Alt + F1. From there, login. Then "killall appname"
[05:13] <nuked_omen> shamael002: ubotu is a cybrog
[05:13] <Stormx2> nuked_omen: If that won't work, you can kill it with kill -9 pid
[05:13] <Stormx2> nuked_omen: But I wouldn't recommend it...
[05:13] <letronje> when i restart to windoze from ubuntu, all i have to do is reset the cable modem, window auto restarts n/w services
[05:13] <Stormx2> (I *think* that's the right signal)
[05:13] <nuked_omen> Stormx2: why not
[05:13] <Stormx2> nuked_omen: It doesn't allow the app to finish properly. Temporary lock files, etc, won't get deleted.
[05:14] <nuked_omen> that's good to know
[05:14] <Hawkins> kaktuskatta, Ah, it was terminal command. I tried to look it from menus :) . I tried this 'aticonfig --resolution=0,1280x960' but got following 'error at set screen resolution : screen0 does not exist' and 'aticonfig: parsing the command-line failed.'
[05:14] <av16ar> nobody knows how to take a screenshot with the mouse cursor?
[05:15] <Stormx2> nuked_omen: Basically it *can* screw things up, because the app is just completely killed with no warnings. A normal kill be the same as hitting the X button, etc.
[05:15] <kaktuskatta> Hawkins: what's the output of fglrxinfo
[05:15] <kaktuskatta> ?
[05:15] <VanDaMe> anybody got success installing apf on ubuntu ?
[05:15] <nuked_omen> Stormx2: normal kill = killall, right?
[05:15] <not_a_k> i installed meta tracker. and set IndexThunderbirdEmails=true in ~/.Tracker/tracker.cfg.. yet my thunderbird emails aren't being indexed. am i missing some step here?
[05:16] <Stormx2> nuked_omen
[05:16] <Stormx2> Ack!
[05:16] <Stormx2> nuked_omen: Yeah.
[05:16] <crdlb> Stormx2, not exactly
[05:16] <Stormx2> I really must go sleep now...
[05:16] <noelferreira> how can i have sound in both my system and firefox applications?
[05:16] <nuked_omen> good night
[05:16] <VanDaMe> anybody got success installing apf on ubuntu ?
[05:16] <Stormx2> noelferreira: Flash hogs sound :(
[05:16] <Hawkins> kaktuskatta, 1st line: aticonfig: parsing the command-line failed. 2nd line: OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc. 3rd line: OpenGL renderer string: RADEON X850 XT Platinum Edition 4th line: OpenGL version string: 2.0.6334 (8.34.8)
[05:16] <not_a_k> in fact i see the following in my tracker log: Thunderbird email indexing enabled :        no
[05:17] <noelferreira> Stormx2: there's no way to solve it?
[05:17] <Stormx2> noelferreira; I think there is... I'm not sure. Just make sure you're using ALSA (System > preferences > sounds).
[05:17] <crdlb> noelferreira, are you using flash 9?
[05:17] <Stormx2> I think flash9 works fine...
[05:17] <Stormx2> Yeah
[05:17] <noelferreira> yes crdlb
[05:17] <mark__> everytime i try to copy a disc brasero tells me "Session error : the drive can't be locked (Extracting audio from CD)". what could i do to copy cds.
[05:17] <Stormx2> I can't be sure but I'm pretty sure flash9 has dmix support?
[05:18] <nuked_omen> sound mixing in linux still need some overhauling
[05:18] <Stormx2> nuked_omen: Its come a long way
[05:18] <kaktuskatta> Hawkins:  Here's mine: display: :0.0  screen: 0
[05:18] <kaktuskatta> OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.
[05:18] <kaktuskatta> OpenGL renderer string: ATI MOBILITY RADEON X600
[05:18] <kaktuskatta> OpenGL version string: 2.0.6473 (8.37.6)
[05:18] <Stormx2> nuked_omen: i don't have any issues with it anymore. I just use ALSA
[05:18] <jmail> I am running on Dell 1505, Feisty 7.04.  Until yesterday, I was able to connect wirelessly, altho had trouble consistently accessing network drives.  Today, I cannot connect wirelessly.  I've tried re-ndiswrapper install, and troubleshot dhcp (which FAILs)

[05:18] <Stormx2> Ah
[05:18] <Stormx2> That's it. I'm typoing lots.
[05:18] <Stormx2> This is not good.
[05:18] <kaktuskatta> It says display and screen 0, so I were wondering if you hade the same
[05:18] <Stormx2> Goodbye all!
[05:18] <kaktuskatta> Stormx2: Sorry
[05:19] <jmail> How do I get Ubuntu to detect wireless again
[05:19] <calc> nuked_omen: would be cool to get sound mixer support like what vista has, eg where you can change volume on a per app basis, etc
[05:19] <nuked_omen> Stormx2: bye
[05:19] <sercik> Hi| i have a little problem with nvidia-glx-new
[05:19] <sercik> when i install it x gives an error about a mismatch version
[05:19] <DJ-_-> ok i need some help with some dns, i know its off topic, but does anyone know whether cname and mx records can coexist with each other
[05:19] <nuked_omen> calc: exactly
[05:19] <sercik> i need to use the old version nvidia-glx
[05:19] <sercik> someone can help me to install nvidia-glx-new?
[05:20] <kitche> DJ-_-: yes sicne they both do different things
[05:20] <DJ-_-> kitche: so basically i can point a cname to another website, and at the same time have the same host to point mx elsewhere?
[05:21] <kitche> DJ-_-: correct sicne CNAME is an alias while a MX is for mail servers to tell people where mail servers are located
[05:21] <DJ-_-> kitche: thx, i got confused cuz the hosts lists that cname records can not be used with other types of records
[05:21] <sirbooboo> stormx2: is it hopeless?
[05:21] <kitche> DJ-_-: I have CNAME for Mail and a MX pointing to mail.kitchetech.com
[05:22] <akahige> are there rdesktop guis that are not gnome dependent? (I'm on Xubuntu)
[05:22] <DJ-_-> kicthe: so do you have another cname pointing to your site?
[05:22] <rinky3> anyone know how to make a command line session "forget" the recently cached sudo password?
[05:22] <kitche> DJ-_-: www is one think mail www is the only two that I have
[05:22] <Cleri1> i need help setting up a logitech wireless keyboard and mouse on ubuntu
[05:22] <ror> how are you invoking sudo? it shouldn't cache it
[05:22] <sercik> rinky3: i think that if you open a different terminal you resolve the problem
[05:23] <DJ-_-> kitche: wait i will try and let you know
[05:23] <predaeus> rinky3, see "man sudo" you can configure how long it takes to forget it. no idea how to forget it immediately by command though.
[05:23] <rinky3> predaeus cheers
[05:23] <Hawkins> kaktuskatta, Seems to be almost the same. How did you get better resolution ?
[05:24] <dclam> are ubuntu ISOs ever re-spun?  I'm on a slower connection and don't want to have to download all the updates since Feisty's release =|
[05:24] <ror> oh, you mean you want it to prompt every time? yeah man sudo covers that, thought you meant you were getting the sudo password appearing in the shell history file
[05:24] <Q_Continuum> I have an issue with the 'Desktop Effects' provided by feisty
[05:24] <predaeus> dclam, not sure, probably check the dates on the ftp directories
[05:24] <sirbooboo> Stormx2: are you still here?
[05:24] <shamael002> ok i when to this link that was posted by:ubotu https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java  to download java for ubuntu but i have ubuntu 7.4 i dont see the download for java for using the lastest version of ubuntu
[05:24] <DJ-_-> kitche: > pm
[05:25] <LEMONed> Hey, how would I go about letting applications have read/write access to my Windows partitions without having to type "sudo appname" everytime?
[05:25] <kaktuskatta> Hawkins: Hehe....preferences-> screen resolution :)
[05:25] <mrobbert> dclam: They're "respun" every 6 months. :-P
[05:25] <DJ-_-> kitche: you cant, Canonical name for a DNS alias, code 5. Note that if a domain name has a CNAME record associated with it, then it can not have any other record types. In addition, CNAME records should not point to domain names which themselves have associated CNAME records, so CNAME only provides one layer of indirection. Defined in RFC 1035.
[05:26] <dclam> predaeus, thanks, good idea.  unfortunately, it appears only Dapper (i.e. LTS) is updated
[05:27] <mrobbert> LEMONed: There are mount options that allow you to mount the partition with whichever UID or GID that you want.
[05:27] <Hawkins> kaktuskatta, What and earth is going on. I've got only: 1024x768 , 960x720 , 864x648 , 800x600 and 640x480 =(
[05:27] <Beamoo> is emacs a c++ compiler?
[05:27] <ror> Hawkins, that's what's listed in your xorg.conf
[05:27] <calc> Beamoo: er no
[05:27] <tritium> Beamoo: no
[05:27] <predaeus> dclam, I don't know but it is likely they update critical things from time to time. Keep asking and scan the forums for info.
[05:27] <calc> Beamoo: it can do nearly everything but that ;)
[05:27] <ror> it can be tho I suspect, emacs can be everything
[05:27] <Beamoo> oh lol ok
[05:27] <magnetron> Beamoo: no, it's a text editor
[05:27] <Beamoo> allright
[05:27] <bmh> DJ-_-, That's if you have a CNAME for the whole domain, i.e. www.example.com can be a CNAME and you can still have MX records for example.com, but if example.com itself is a cname, it can't have MX records (or anything else)
[05:27] <ror> oh, it can't compile c? how boring of it
[05:27] <Beamoo> what should i use for a c++ compiler?
[05:27] <ror> gcc
[05:28] <kaktuskatta> Hawkins: Hm.....Odd.
[05:28] <calc> Beamoo: g++
[05:28] <DJ-_-> bmh: gotcha
[05:28] <Hawkins> ror, I've got only Depth 24 and Mode 1280x960

[05:29] <marco_linux> I need some help with VIA 8235 soundcard. I am using ubuntu feisty. I am not able to record any sound or use Skype. Anyone can help me?
[05:29] <Beamoo> Ie installed g++ but dont understand how it works :S
[05:29] <DJ-_-> bmh: so basically if they try to goto example.com....they get a cannot display page
[05:29] <Beamoo> do i write a code in lets say gedit then compile it with the command in the terminal?
[05:29] <shamael002> what is? Multiverse repository
[05:29] <predaeus> Beamoo, see "man g++" or "man gcc"
[05:30] <bmh> DJ-_-, You can still set an A record for the domain to point to the same IP as the host you want, instead of using a CNAME
[05:30] <Frogzoo> grrr.. emacs in a gnome-terminal doesn't recognise ansi escape, instead I get ';5D' hitting ctrl left arrow
[05:30] <predaeus> Beamoo, find some C++ or C turorials on the web, they will tell you the details

[05:30] <NeXtDaY> what is mounting? what is it useful for?
[05:31] <DJ-_-> bmh: unless I am on static ip that is?
[05:31] <predaeus> NeXtDaY, see "man mount"
[05:31] <calc> Beamoo: typically people use make and/or automake and the autotools to do building for projects
[05:31] <shamael002> and i need java installed on here so i can work on my website on yahoo geocities
[05:31] <NeXtDaY> ok
[05:31] <Vaske_Car> how do I start computer back from Suspend mode?
[05:31] <Beamoo> calc: that how you compile ?  gcc foo.cpp -o foo?
[05:31] <Frogzoo> Vaske_Car: hit a key

[05:31] <calc> Beamoo: for a simple one file program, yes
[05:31] <ror> shamael002, you need java vm and plugin for your browser then
[05:31] <Vaske_Car> Frogzoo, I did and nothing heppend
[05:31] <Vaske_Car> I had to restart
[05:31] <Beamoo> calc: ok and change foo to the filename?
[05:32] <calc> Beamoo: yes
[05:32] <tritium> Beamoo: if you're going to be compiling software, etc., you probably want to install build-essential
[05:32] <ruks> hello
[05:32] <shamael002> and what is java vm and plugin
[05:32] <calc> Beamoo: -o foo outputs a binary that is named foo
[05:32] <DJ-_-> bmh: ok, is there anyway I can run a DNS server on my pc and point to that using the domain name host
[05:32] <Beamoo> calc: sweet and i can write the code in lets say getid?
[05:32] <DJ-_-> bmh: so basically i can confgiure more stuff like mx and stuff on my dns server
[05:32] <sean_> my software index is broken
[05:32] <ruks> i have a question if anyone could help me in pm or on here
[05:32] <sean_> how do i fix it?

[05:33] <sean_> anyone know how to get rid of the "software index is broken" error?
[05:33] <calc> Beamoo: yea you can write the code in pretty much whatever you want, there are some IDE for linux like KDevelop

[05:33] <calc> Beamoo: and Eclipse
[05:34] <idefixx> DJ-_-: no, you need a static ip to run a dns server on it. if you have a static ip you can make the dns1 and dns2 point to the same ip.
[05:34] <Trae> Anyone know how to get an ACX 111 TI wireless card pci card going with Ubuntu?
[05:34] <needs_help> just installed ubuntu dual boot with xp,but cant access my wireless in ubuntu
[05:34] <predaeus> !wlan | ruks
[05:34] <chatter> hi
[05:34] <Beamoo> calc: just to brake it down, Il write the code in Kdevelop then compile it with the command  gcc foo.cpp -o foo. But what does build-essentail do?
[05:34] <DJ-_-> idefixx: ok, so i am better off with CNAME, well i have to configure mail servers after which i will make a CNAME record, thx
[05:34] <bmh> DJ-_-, You could, because NS records take a host name instead of an IP address, but it's not a good idea to have a domain's nameserver on a dynamic IP address, and it wouldn't help with the original problem.
[05:35] <ruks> didnt catch that?
[05:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wlan - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:35] <DJ-_-> bmh: thx man
[05:35] <calc> Beamoo: if you already know how to program most of that will transfer over to linux, the main new things you will need to learn for larger projects is how to create Makefile's, automake, autoconf are good things to look at
[05:35] <chatter> i will have to install my machine. can i save all the list of installed packages from dpkg or apt and read it after reinstallation to get the same config up and running again?
[05:35] <calc> Beamoo: build-essential is a package that pulls in the packages you need to build most stuff on ubuntu

[05:35] <ubotu> ruks: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:35] <idefixx> DJ-_-: the proper way is make an A entry for yourdomain.foo CNAME for www.yourdomain.foo and add a MX to yourdomain.foo and so on.
[05:35] <calc> Beamoo: KDevelop may be able to do the building for you as well, i haven't used it myself though
[05:35] <Beamoo> calc: Im kind of a programming noob
[05:36] <frojnd> does anyone know where I could get some skydome images for beryl?
[05:36] <idefixx> DJ-_-: if you want two mailservers you can create another A entry for ie. mail.yourdomain.foo and add a differnt MX.
[05:36] <DJ-_-> idefixx: what if I wanted the A entry to point to a website in freehostia
[05:36] <calc> Beamoo: actually i'm pretty sure kdevelop will build stuff for you, i just don't know what the commands are in the menu
[05:36] <Frogzoo> chatter: dpkg --get-selections
[05:36] <ror> build-essential is a collection (pseudo package) of packages that are useful;

[05:36] <ror> I'd recommend vim but everyone has their preferences
[05:37] <ruks> but once downloaded i dont know how to execute it
[05:37] <sean_> anyone know how to fix the "software index is broken" error?
[05:37] <idefixx> DJ-_-: if i understand you correct.. that has nothing to do with the dns anymore. Just point it to the IP of freehostia and they'll have to create a VHOST in the webserver config.
[05:37] <ror> sean_, I don't know, but it sounds like something to do with apt-cache
[05:37] <DJ-_-> idefixx: can i talk to you in pm?
[05:37] <Johto> hello everyone, greetings from finland :)
[05:37] <sean_> ror: it wont let me do anything, i cant install anything or update anything
[05:38] <idefixx> DJ-_-: so that the webserver knows which webpage to serve if someone rquests a webpage on www.yourdomain.foo
[05:38] <idefixx> DJ-_-: goahead
[05:38] <DJ-_-> ok
[05:38] <predaeus> sean_, look through "man apt-cache" "man apt-get" etc... maybe there is some option to reset some caching
[05:38] <Trae> sorry for repeat.... but anyone know about TI ACX 111 Pci network card with Ubuntu 7.04 ?
[05:39] <not_a_k> anyone know how to get meta tracker to index thunderbird email?
[05:39] <sean_> predaeus: how do i do that exactly?
[05:39] <davidc_> Hey there, I just have a quick question about how kernel updates work in Ubuntu.  The last update broke my sound card (making it so that the internal speakers of the machine do not mute when a headphone is plugged in), so I've been booting off the previous kernel which is fine.  Another kernel update just appeared and I'd love to give it a spin but I'm afraid of losing the ability to boot my current kernel.  Will I keep the older ke
[05:39] <davidc_> rnel as well?
[05:39] <davidc_> Thanks
[05:39] <chatter> Frogzoo: and how do i apply it after a clean installation?
[05:39] <Beamoo> Can you compile in Kdevelop?
[05:39] <predaeus> sean_, open a terminal and type      man apt-cache      quit the man pages with :  and then q and enter
[05:40] <kitche> davidc_: ubuntu just keeps adding lines to menu.lst so you can fallback to older kernels
[05:40] <predaeus> Beamoo, look at wikipedia what an IDE is
[05:40] <Johto> funny thing this is, no tweaking to do (well there always are) but now my system is in nice shape and i'm just relaxing, drinking coffee and listening to classical music :P
[05:40] <davidc_> kitche: Thanks!
[05:40] <predaeus> Beamoo, same for gcc
[05:40] <davidc_> I'll go ahead and see if it works then and if not give it a bug report.

[05:42] <predaeus> dclam, maybe they did not have time for that yet. and it might not be done automatically.
[05:42] <Beamoo> ror: well in linux, i know some language i just need to get started with the apps
[05:42] <Johto> i like this gnome-xchat version
[05:43] <kitche> Johto: well it's it's own program
[05:43] <Johto> kitche: yeah, i ment, i like this gnome frontend for it :)
[05:43] <Johto> simple and elegant

[05:44] <CheshireViking> setuid, i think you have to email them with a specific request and an explanation of why you want more than 3 copies
[05:45] <kitche> BlueDevil: most likely yes
[05:45] <Trae> I have a tester that's a patch check
[05:45] <Trae> and everything seems fine
[05:45] <ror> How have you been writing the visual basic programs?
[05:45] <Trae> yet... the damned cables won't work.
[05:45] <setuid> CheshireViking, Its for a popular lug. THey sent me 50 CDs just shy of a year ago.
[05:45] <dclam> predaeus, i think they just don't do it for non-LTS versions.  looking at the ISOs of edgy and feisty, their timestamps indicate they aren't updated.  I'm guessing they don't bother if it's not LTS

[05:46] <Beamoo> afk
[05:46] <predaeus> dclam, probably yea, but I can't think of any reason why they would not automate that process
[05:46] <lauchlin> help
[05:46] <kitche> BlueDevil: most liekyl yes
[05:46] <setuid> marco_linux, probably not supported. Find a soundcard made by a vendor that supports Linux.

[05:46] <dclam> predaeus, i'm guessing respins have to go through a QA process that can't be fully automated
[05:46] <predaeus> dclam, probably because they introduced fatal errors in the repos before, that had to be fixed, so CDs would need testing....
[05:46] <predaeus> yup
[05:47] <limale2> the monitor of the battery don't indicate the level of the battery !

[05:48] <CheshireViking> setuid, not sure what else you can do, all i'd suggest would be to try the special request page with the explanation about the size of LUG & whether the;s a specific event that you'd need them for
[05:49] <limale2> what is the package that show the level of the battery in notebook ?
[05:49] <hylje> limale2: it's included..?
[05:50] <predaeus> dclam, somebody posted a minimal ubuntu install cd here before that could be found in the forums, and it would only install very few packages and fetch the rest from the repos. you could look for that.
[05:50] <limale2> yes, but now don't work properly...so....what are tha necessary packet ?

[06:00] <Gwall> (16:59:14) <Beamoo> What is a good programming language to start off with?
[06:00] <Morris562> stien: I've got 3harddrives right now.. I have a copy of the iso on each one, I want to format one of them and install it.
[06:00] <qaldune> beamoo: at least dinamically compiled
[06:00] <predaeus> thanks ops
[06:00] <snoop> lol ok, when i make a bridge in the /etc/networks/interface and restart the service, i have this error messagDon't seem to be have all the variables for bridge0/inet.
[06:00] <snoop> Failed to bring up bridge0e:
[06:00] <Beamoo> qaldune: allright, but what program should i use?
[06:00] <qaldune> beamoo: python
[06:01] <Beamoo> allright
[06:01] <Gwall> naa Beamoo
[06:01] <Gwall> .php
[06:01] <Gwall> or C++
[06:01] <Trusch> #ubuntu-de
[06:01] <stien> I dont think you can mount the iso as the same time as you install it, because when you are formating the system everything goes away and the mount ting also..
[06:01] <qaldune> gwall he said 'begin'

[06:01] <Morris562> stien: But I wont be formatting all the harddrives, only one..
[06:01] <Gwall> C++*
[06:01] <qaldune> so you do :)
[06:01] <ror> both are easy and forgiving and won't give you constant compilation errors like C

[06:02] <tondar> how can I add my harddisk to the repo? source.list
[06:02] <tondar> is it possible
[06:02] <tondar> ?

[06:02] <boghog> how to fix?
[06:02] <qaldune> beamoo: i did never seem to program on windows
[06:02] <TheVault> Can someone please help me. Iv tried every possible thing. I can't get my start menu logo changed, I wanna change it to something else but no matter what I do, nothing works. Iv been through the forum, posted my problem, no response, I have searched and nothing useful comes up. Can someone please help me.
[06:02] <stien> Morris562, : i have understand that, but stil if you dont format the disk whit the ISO file on, you will format the system that makes the PC think that the ISO is a cd, or something like that..
[06:02] <ror> programming c++ in linux is same as programming c++ in windows; you write the source then compile it;
[06:02] <Johto> i had Windows XP on my "main" computer week ago ..then i bought new 500 Gig hardisk and went "Hell, no Vista for me, so Ubuntu it is" :D
[06:02] <tondar> can I add a hard drive to the repos? sources.list
[06:02] <Beamoo> Gwall: mono?
[06:02] <boghog> this is so annoying
[06:02] <Gwall> mono compiler
[06:03] <Beamoo> ok
[06:03] <boghog> all these little things in ubuntu not working
[06:03] <Johto> i hate vista
[06:03] <Gwall> search it
[06:03] <ror> boghog, what doesn't work for you?
[06:03] <stien> Johto, : we all do..
[06:03] <Johto> i started using windows when it was version 3.0 ...
[06:03] <boghog> I can't adjust the system time :(
[06:03] <predaeus> TheVault, do you mean the gdm login theme? or the icon on the applications menu?
[06:03] <Johto> it was now time to let it go fully, i get enough it at work :P
[06:03] <Morris562> stien: Dam, I was hopeing I could use like the netboot mentod of cdnless install.. then just instead of having it download, have it install from a different harddrive
[06:03] <Beamoo> Gwall: cant i compile in Kdevelop?
[06:03] <Beamoo> Gwall: it seemed like a good app
[06:03] <Gwall> yup
[06:04] <gordonjcp> boghog: so "one thing", not "all these things"?
[06:04] <tondar> anyone help me here
[06:04] <tondar> ?
[06:04] <TheVault> predaeus: The applications menu. Like the logo you click and then it shows the menus, like Administration, Preferences, Places etc
[06:04] <boghog> it says it is 20:03 CEST evenafter I change it to 18:03 by right clicking on the time panel applet
[06:04] <Gwall> btw Beamoo
[06:04] <Beamoo> Gwall: how do i do that? cant seem to find the button haha :P
[06:04] <Gwall> i got a guide to learn C++

[06:04] <Beamoo> Gwall: link it :P
[06:04] <Gwall> sure
[06:04] <Johto> i made my /home partition 460Gig and have my stuff there, that way its easy to reinstall ubuntu (or other distro) if neede :)
[06:04] <Gwall> Beamoo pm
[06:04] <gordonjcp> boghog: is the timezone set correctly?
[06:05] <Johto> formatted it using XFS ..is XFS good fsystem?
[06:05] <stien> Morris562, : to bad, but still I am not quite sure about this, but in mye head I dont see a way to do this. And I have never ever heard of someone who has. You got to put in a CD or something like that.
[06:05] <boghog> gordonjcp,  yeah it's set to CEST
[06:05] <gordonjcp> and you're in CEST?
[06:05] <Johto> i was torn between ReiserFS and XFS ...went the XFS route
[06:05] <boghog> yes
[06:05] <predaeus> TheVault, sorry no idea if you are on gnome, it is a bit complicated there, I think you need to change some config file or rename the icon file.
[06:05] <Beamoo> Gwall: yeah i have written to u :P
[06:05] <Johto> oh but i made my /boot as EXT3 just for compatible sake
[06:05] <Gwall> hehe
[06:05] <Gwall> Beamoo
[06:05] <TheVault> predaeus: Aww man. Do you know anyone who knows how to change it?
[06:05] <Gwall> u need to be indentified
[06:06] <Gwall> nickserv
[06:06] <snoop> lol ok, when i make a bridge in the /etc/networks/interface and restart the service, i have this error messagDon't seem to be have all the variables for bridge0/inet Failed to bring up bridge0, any body know this error? I had make bridge before but never return this error, i look kernel but i don't know what is need for bridging?
[06:06] <gordonjcp> boghog: which version of Ubuntu are you using?
[06:06] <predaeus> TheVault, nah sorry :-D
[06:06] <Beamoo> Gwall: wich means:P
[06:06] <TheVault> predaeus: Alrighty, I'll keep asking
[06:06] <slarty> TheVault:  the image file you want is distributor-logo.png do a search for it, can't remember where it hides
[06:06] <Johto> too bad i havent found any player supporting Moneky Audio with CUE/APE style..i have many albums encoded that way :(
[06:06] <MarcN> What is the best RSS reader?
[06:06] <boghog> gordonjcp, 7.04
[06:06] <Gwall> (17:06:29) <Beamoo> Gwall: wich means:P
[06:07] <Gwall> ./nickserv register pass
[06:07] <boghog> gordonjcp, oh it looks like it suddenly updated the time now
[06:07] <gordonjcp> boghog: ok, so you're set to Europe/Amsterdam?
[06:07] <stien> MarcN, : the one you write you're self :)
[06:07] <Johto> i think only way is to rip ape back to wav and then compress them again in FLAC
[06:07] <TheVault> slarty: People where saying its under /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/ but I replaced that logo there and then restart the panel with the killall gnome-panel command in the terminal and then it just stays there
[06:07] <boghog> gordonjcp, it is weird because when I looked right after changing it it was still saying the old un-adjusted time, but I guess it takes a while beforei t updates or something
[06:07] <gordonjcp> boghog: possibly
[06:08] <gordonjcp> boghog: maybe it only updates once a minute?
[06:08] <Johto> does anyone know easy decoder for Monkey Audio -> WAV ?
[06:08] <MarcN> stien: heh.  I've tried liferea and others before, but they were crashy.  Stick with bloglines.com I suppose.
[06:08] <predaeus> MarcN, liferea is nice. but there are others too.
[06:08] <slarty> TheVault: I think it depends on which icon theme you are using eg /usr/share/icons/Human/24x24/places/distributor-logo.png for the Human theme
[06:08] <gordonjcp> boghog: aha - select "show seconds" in preferences and it updates once a second ;-)
[06:08] <stien> MarcN, : tryed pipes.yahoo.com or something like that ?
[06:08] <predaeus> MarcN, oh, only saw your post now.
[06:08] <boghog> gordonjcp, ahhh, ok that explains it hehe
[06:08] <Beamoo> Gwall: But how do i compile in Kdevelop?
[06:09] <Gwall> Beamoo dont use it
[06:09] <Gwall> go to add remove
[06:09] <Gwall> and get
[06:09] <TheVault> slarty: right now I am using the Glossy theme that came with Ubuntu
[06:09] <Gwall> Mono
[06:09] <gordonjcp> boghog: there should probably be something that forces an update when you close the window
[06:09] <predaeus> Gwall, Beamoo, just open a new channel
[06:09] <Gwall> lol k
[06:09] <Gwall> #gwall
[06:09] <boghog> yeah
[06:10] <Johto> hey guys, what do you guys like my fonts, i think they are nice :) http://img487.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotsa0.png
[06:10] <MarcN> stien: predaeus, pipes in interesting, but I really don't want to write my own RSS reader...
[06:11] <predaeus> MarcN, liferea worked fine for me so far. that other python one kept crashing.
[06:11] <warezbos> halo
[06:11] <stien> MarcN, : I understand, then you just have to look on the internett.. I didnt find any I liked, soo then i wrote my own, love it. Just the way I like it
[06:11] <slarty> TheVault: should use the default in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps then.  did you copy the new file as root?
[06:11] <predaeus> MarcN, also firefox can read feeds but it's not very practical
[06:12] <MarcN> predaeus: agreed.  I'll give lifrea another go
[06:12] <tom_> hi, anyone know how to get opengl apps working over vnc?
[06:13] <andre_pl> tom_ Terabit ethernet?
[06:13] <MarcN> predaeus: liferea or liferea-mozilla do you like better?
[06:13] <andre_pl> :)
[06:13] <TheVault> slarty: Well I did gksudo nautilus and then went in and changed the original name to distributor-logo.png.bak and then I moved my new image I wanted there but with the same name as distributor-logo.png
[06:13] <MarcN> predaeus: or more stable
[06:13] <TheVault> slarty: Then I did killall gnome-panel and nothing happened
[06:13] <slarty> TheVault: dunno then, sorry :S
[06:13] <tom_> andre_pl: lol, but surely the images that need to be drawn are the same physical size, therefore the same numerical size as a normal vnc?
[06:14] <TheVault> slarty: Thanks
[06:14] <predaeus> MarcN, no idea, the one I've got is just liferea it seems
[06:14] <BlueDevil> where is the definitive walkthru to rebuild the kernel? i searched and everywhere i turn there's a different tutorial
[06:14] <TheVault> Does anyone else know how to change the start button logo? I really want it changed
[06:14] <andre_pl> tom_, I guess so, but the framerate would probably unbearable... anyway, I'm not being helpful, and i really have no idea, so, sorry :)
[06:15] <tom_> andre_pl: ok no worries
[06:15] <tom_> anyone else know anything about this? opengl over vnc
[06:16] <mc44> tom_: er, what sort of refresh rate do you think you get on normal vnc?
[06:16] <onyot18> waaaaa

[06:17] <Beamoo> what should i use to open .ace formats ?
[06:17] <mc44> tom_: I doubt you can play a game with anywhere near a fast enough refresh rate
[06:17] <BlueDevil> please, where can I find the tutorial for recompiling the kernel?
[06:17] <tom_> mc44: wasnt really looking at games, more 3d design apps
[06:19] <Poppea> aa
[06:19] <Beamoo> what should i use to open .ace files?
[06:19] <CaptainMorgan> !.ace
[06:19] <ubotu> Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (GNOME) or Ark (KDE) - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression
[06:19] <predaeus> tom_, wouldn't it be possible to connect 2 different X servers for that purpose
[06:20] <crdlb> tom_, what OS is the host running?
[06:20] <tom_> both linux, ubuntu feisty
[06:20] <tom_> predaeus: i want the redering to be done on the server, and just send the rendered images
[06:22] <ror> hey, I've got a problem with gnome-open; if I gnome-open a http url then it won't open unless I have firefox already open, then it'll run fine
[06:22] <ror> this affects a lot of my programs, e.g. xchat, gmail notifier, all of which use gnome-open to open the links
[06:23] <bayzider> How you open apps in Fluxbox?
[06:23] <ror> fbrun
[06:23] <ror> right click menu is easy to edit, well worth doing
[06:24] <bayzider> ror: When I right click all I see is a little box that says fluxbox

[06:24] <scales11> hello all i am trying to use the windows wireless drivers app (ndiswrapper?) in ubuntu since my wifi drivers arent workin too great.  i select the inf file but it doesnt seem to install it. suggestions?
[06:24] <Beamoo> when i run the unace command i get this "Error opening file jj189.ace" any ideas?
[06:24] <carlos_> kkk
[06:25] <not_a_k> is comcast blocking outgoing pop3?
[06:25] <ror> bayzider, it seems your right click menu is broken then; are you running under sudo or as root?
[06:25] <rinky3> Beamoo, might be a bad ace file, try it on a different archiver maybe
[06:25] <TheCougar> can ubuntu desktop join a domain and use roaming profiles?
[06:25] <scales11> it isnt outgoing pop3, outgoing is stmp
[06:25] <scales11> or smtp
[06:25] <TheCougar> pop3 = in smtp = out
[06:25] <not_a_k> by outgoing i mean an outgoing connection
[06:25] <bayzider> I'm not sure ror. I installed it from synaptic in Gnome. I changed my sesion to fluxbox. How do I run it as root?
[06:26] <ror> weird that it's not working then
[06:26] <TitanP4> question...what is Fluxbox?
[06:26] <not_a_k> as in i'm not running a pop3 server. i can't connect to any pop3 server..
[06:26] <Beamoo> How do you compile a C++ project in Kdevelop?
[06:26] <ror> fluxbox is a lightweight window manager
[06:26] <Gothfunc> when i install edgy server on my machine, everything is fine.  when i install feisty server, everything is fine until first login, when the keyboard stops working (even sysreq doesn't work).  the keyboard works while booting, it just stops working at the login.
[06:26] <not_a_k> ubuntu doesn't come with any firewalls enabled right?
[06:26] <Gothfunc> anyone know how i can get the keyboard working?  is this a known bug?
[06:26] <TitanP4> why would you need it?
[06:26] <predaeus> not_a_k, no, but the firewall is integrated into the linux operating system
[06:27] <scales11> the graphical frontend to ndiswrapper doesnt seem to work
[06:27] <Beamoo> How do you compile a C++ project in Kdevelop?
[06:27] <kane77> not_a_k, not in a way that would prevent you from connecting to pop3
[06:27] <julius> hi again

[06:33] <predaeus> linxuz3r, what card?

[06:34] <predaeus> linxuz3r, you need the legacy drivers, as stated under !nvidia
[06:34] <scales11> is ndiswrapper already installed in ubuntu?  i cant seem to find it via apt-get...
[06:34] <linxuz3r> yes i have legacy drivers already running

[06:37] <|malajenho|> hi, I have installed BERYL in my laptop with ATI X200, and it works perfectly, but I only have 1024x768 resolution
[06:37] <julius> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:37] <predaeus> julius, look at the live cd how it is made up, then boot it up and check the live cd's /etc/apt/sources.list that includes the CD as far as I know. Then you might be able to copy that configuration for your purpose. Else you can search the forums for info.
[06:37] <|malajenho|> ok
[06:38] <|malajenho|> when I enter in the configuration window, what options have I to select...
[06:38] <phake> hello, can somebody help me? i have an ATI x1950, it runs well. But if i want to use xinerama fglrxinfo says i use vesa, why?

[06:44] <babo> I've plugged in a printer and it's been registered, but I don't see anything in dev which makes me believe that udev has taken the info from sysfs.
[06:44] <babo> Jun 13 17:42:23 eire kernel: [ 1166.608000]  drivers/usb/class/usblp.c: usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 4 if 0 alt 0 proto 2 vid 0x04A9 pid 0x10A2
[06:44] <mc44> phake: er.. are you on fesity? how did you install it?
[06:44] <babo> the printer has a usb connection ...
[06:44] <scripter111> is anyone a wireless expert
[06:44] <eric> i deleted the line in grub to boot windows XP (dual boot), and I cant get the line back
[06:44] <boghog> is it possible to get elisa installed on ubuntu? withut having to comile and install it manually?
[06:44] <eric> any ideas?
[06:44] <babo> Does my system have a driver for this printer ?
[06:44] <phake> i use dapper ... i install this driver with an installation script ... install-fglrx-debian.sh
[06:44] <lenny64600> hi all
[06:44] <TheCougar> when installing ubuntu one of the options for "mount point" is suppose to be 'SWAP' right?
[06:45] <_r1_> So nobody to tell me how I can force aptitude (or apt in general) to ignore some packages ?
[06:45] <moogman> boghog: Go here https://core.fluendo.com/elisa/trac/wiki/Packages
[06:45] <scripter111> is anyone a wireless expert
[06:45] <boghog> thanks moogman
[06:46] <moogman> boghog: No probs.
[06:46] <phake> mc44: i use dapper ... i install this driver with an installation script ... install-fglrx-debian.sh
[06:46] <babo> how can I find out whether my printer is connected properly or not ? How can I find out whether I have the proper drivers ?
[06:46] <barata> guys, is 7.04 really that great? where can I get the dvd?
[06:46] <moogman> TheCougar: "swap" should only be used for your swap partition. You should use "ext3" if you are configuring your root (/) or home (/home) partitions.
[06:46] <mc44> phake: well if fglrxinfo says vesa then it isn't working. I can't help you with random install scripts
[06:47] <unimatrix9> barata http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/cdimage.ubuntu.com/cdimage/releases/7.04/release/
[06:47] <unimatrix9> dvd
[06:47] <TheCougar> moogman: i realize that but when i go to look through the mount point list swap isn't listed. and when i type '/swap' it doesn't accept it as a valid swap parition. and it tells me that all mounts must start with / so i can't use 'swap'
[06:47] <TheCougar> moogman: am i missing something?
[06:47] <barata> thanks unimatrix9
[06:48] <scripter111> i need ndiswrapper help
[06:48] <damageDOne> This is a newbie question: If I have downloaded a theme in a tar.gz how do I install it?
[06:48] <moogman> TheCougar: You don't mount a swap partition into your filesystem, so you should select blank, or "(none)" for the mount point :-)
[06:48] <TheCougar> moogman: nevermind i was missing something:) "swap" was the partitions format not the mount point
[06:48] <phake> mc44: this script uses the driver from ati.com and installs this driver ... fglrxinfo says only vesa if i activate xinerama ... if i disable it, ATI-drivers run with 3D
[06:48] <unimatrix9> barata : use what works best for your system, that can be 6.06 or 6.10 or 7.04
[06:48] <TheCougar> moogman: i'm just use to windows and freebsd lol
[06:48] <moogman> TheCougar: No probs, enjoy :-)
[06:49] <richard_> Hi all. feisty and stellarium with unreadable fonts, how to fix that...

[06:49] <unimatrix9> richard_ would true fonts help maybe?
[06:49] <barata> mine is BLOATED
[06:50] <ShinSR71> eric : what's wrong with it?
[06:50] <barata> so I will just reinstall anyway
[06:50] <TheCougar> moogman: hopefully this time it installs better. last time it wouldn't load xwindows so i'm trying some different install settings
[06:50] <eric> i accidently deleted the line of code that allows xp to boot
[06:50] <scripter111> WIRELESS HELP PLEASE
[06:50] <richard_> I try it but not help me that way
[06:50] <scripter111> sry caps
[06:50] <eric> and now i cant figure out how to re-type it in
[06:50] <phake> mc44: this script uses the driver from ati.com and installs this driver ... fglrxinfo says only vesa if i activate xinerama ... if i disable it, ATI-drivers run with 3D support
[06:50] <moogman> eric: Can you explain a bit further? Is your system only booting into Ubuntu now or somethign?
[06:50] <Kalisto> wow it REALLY helps to vaccume out the cpu vents of a laptop. tons of dust that was making it overheat.
[06:50] <mc44> phake: i don't know sorry
[06:50] <eric> grub works and lets me boot ubuntu, but not XP
[06:51] <eric> i just need to re-add xp to the boot list

[06:51] <phake> mc44: are there any known problems with ati-cards and xinerama?
[06:51] <grndslm> guys...how do i turn off beagle?  or at least make sure it only runs when the laptop's not running on battery?
[06:51] <moogman> eric: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - can you paste the contents of your /boot/grub/menu.lst into pastebin so we can take a look?
[06:51] <eric> i was trying to make XP the default with grub, but moved the line up too high on the list and grub auto-deleted it

[06:53] <eric> i pasted it up
[06:53] <dubno> Hello. ALSA sound problem. Am using Dapper. Sound works and keyboard controls move Volume applet. BUT volume can only be adjusted from within an application. Any ideas?
[06:53] <eric> i think my problem is in the root line
[06:54] <eric> but i am not the expert, and cannot figure it out, and that is why i am here :)
[06:54] <scripter111> unimatrix: linksys Wpc54GS
[06:54] <rapidhelp> okay - i am TOTALLY new to ubuntu.  looking to replace a windows domain controller.  can ubuntu (easily, and without using command line) manage my users settings (such as their desktop, browser homepage, network drives, etc?)
[06:54] <scripter111> unimatrix: i dont know what version i have.
[06:54] <letronje>  hi, i have to restart my cable modem each time i switch between OSs. so when i reboot to ubuntu from windoze, i have to restart networking services after resetting my cable modem. whats the fastest way to do it thru GUI ? when i restart to windoze from ubuntu, all i have to do is reset the cable modem, windows auto restarts n/w services i guess
[06:54] <scripter111> unimatrix: i think its kubuntu
[06:55] <Dr_willis> eric,  i always just uncomment the windows example entry in the grub config. That way its always there, and always at The #1 positiobn
[06:55] <Kalisto> how does CPU fan cooling work on laptops? is it controlled through the kernel. or hardware?
[06:55] <CarlFK> Kalisto: software (but not the kernel)
[06:55] <eric> dr_willis, I can't even boot XP at all at the moment.  I get an error when I try to boot it.
[06:56] <walnut> anyone who knows how to install cspace on feisty?
[06:56] <moogman> eric: Sorry, what's the link to the pastebin you pasted?
[06:56] <Kalisto> CarlFK, is there a way i can increase cpu fan speed at certain temps?
[06:56] <eric> moogman, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25417/
[06:56] <rapidhelp> i have some really basic ubuntu questions involving managine a thin client network. if you can help, please PM me.  i am not certain that we're going to use ubuntu, because there doesn't seem to be any EASY help out there, like there is for windows
[06:56] <Kalisto> it seems its going that the same speed if its 40 of 80... CarlFK , afaik in windows the fan speeds up when the cpu gets hptter
[06:57] <unimatrix9> scripter111 i looked up your wireless card, seems you need the ndiswrapper to set it up, its a difficult job, do you have an friend with linux experience?
[06:57] <moogman> eric: root		root (hd0,0)
[06:57] <moogman> eric: Should be ...
[06:57] <moogman> root  (hd0,0)
[06:57] <scripter111> i installed my wireless card in ndiswrapper but when i type "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" it says "error, invalid arguement"
[06:58] <unimatrix9> hmm
[06:58] <blacktronic> heay, I have problems with the ubuntu installation
[06:58] <scripter111> ndiswrapper says hardware present, driver present
[06:58] <moogman> eric: Then change line #14 to change the default boot
[06:58] <eric> moogman, it keeps auto saving it like that when i try to edit it in the grub editor
[06:58] <Morris562> I'm having install problems too, i need someones who a pro regarding installing without a cdrom/usbstick etc..
[06:58] <Mr-Petah> hi all
[06:59] <eric> I don't think it is at hd0,0
[06:59] <Dr_willis> rapidhelp,  the forums and wikis have a lot of stuff allready covered in detail.  Ive only used ubuntu on my home lan however. :) its rather easy to get going. Not sure how your 'thin client' differer. but there seems tobe a comming focus on embeded and other minimal ubuntu systems comming down the road.
[06:59] <unimatrix9> scripter111 does networks show up on the applet?
[06:59] <scripter111> nope
[06:59] <moogman> eric: I would suggest editing the file directly in this case.
[06:59] <unimatrix9> scripter111 and what version of ubuntu are we talking?

[07:08] <cox377> DShepherd: i just ran --purge, autoremove, clean & orphaned apps and reinstalled and still the same problem
[07:08] <TheCougar> when ubuntu downloads drivers for like the video card does it get it from the manufatures site or does it get it from ubuntus?
[07:09] <DShepherd> cox377, i have never used the program though... hmmm..,,, can you wait while I google around?
[07:09] <cox377> DShepherd: yeh mate would be great if you could - kinda makes me feel lazy haha i've done a little googling and google only gave 1 page and no answer

[07:10] <eric> when I try to boot windows xp in grub, I get the error NTLDR is missing.  Any ideas?
[07:11] <moogman> Sorry eric, I can't help you with that one.
[07:11] <unimatrix9> eric, this means that xp is broken ( not caused by ubuntu by the way ), your bootloader for xp is missing
[07:11] <Pici> arg, wrong window
[07:12] <eric> unimatrix0, it worked fine until I deleted the line in grub (accidently)
[07:12] <DShepherd> francois, got it mounted now?
[07:12] <francois> DShepherd: same problem, won't mount it
[07:12] <unimatrix9> i see
[07:12] <francois> DShepherd: but i can mount it with terminal
[07:12] <scripter111> unimatrix: ok, i know what i need to do, i need to mount the module
[07:12] <unimatrix9> hee whats the command to install grub again?
[07:13] <scripter111> unimatrix: but i get "error: invalid arguement
[07:13] <unimatrix9> that might solve that..
[07:13] <DShepherd> francois, hmm... try appending the umask option to your mount options? that might help
[07:13] <Tehk> Is there anyway to reinstall grub so that it replaces my MBR? I installed another copy of ubuntu on another drive for testing purposes and now grub points to the /boot on that drive.
[07:13] <Lincoherent> #ubuntu-fr
[07:13] <eric> i don't know how to install grub again
[07:13] <francois> DShepherd: tried....
[07:13] <Morris562> eric, if i'm not mistaken you should be able to edit your grub boot loading options
[07:13] <francois> DShepherd: if i use dmesg the system sees the drive being attached, but just wont read it properly
[07:13] <DShepherd> francois, and nothing? what filesystem type is it?
[07:14] <francois> DShepherd: fat32
[07:14] <DShepherd> francois, hmm... can you do a filesystem check?
[07:14] <francois> DShepherd: how do i do that ?
[07:14] <DShepherd> francois, not sure.. let me check..
[07:14] <eric> morris562, how do i edit it to boot windows?
[07:14] <eric> becuase not it does not at all

[07:20] <scripter111> scales11: ndiswrapper works fine, i just need to mount the module
[07:20] <Shoeb> Hello, I'm a complete beginner, and I was wondering how I can remove all ssh history of commands I ran, etc
[07:20] <cox377> DShepherd: nice one dude, cheers for the heads up
[07:20] <Pici> novato_br: Like I said, on US keyboard layouts, I'm not sure about others.
[07:20] <Jtkiefer> Shoeb, if you mean from the history command do history -c
[07:20] <Jtkiefer> that'll clear them
[07:21] <novato_br> my keboard  is brazilian abnt2 keyboard layout
[07:21] <Shoeb> And no one will ever be able to know what commands I ran?
[07:21] <Shoeb> on ssh?
[07:21] <novato_br> Pici,  how can I get change the keyboard layout ?
[07:21] <DShepherd> cox377, yeah... sorry about the lack of solution though... maybe you can use another app? hopefully..
[07:21] <Shoeb> Jtkiefer: And no one will ever be able to know what commands I ran?
[07:21] <Pici> novato_br: nono, thats not the solution.  It should be there somewhere.
[07:22] <novato_br> Pici,  yep, and it' is
[07:22] <novato_br> but i can't get pressing them
[07:22] <Jtkiefer> I don't exactly want to know what type of commands you want to hide but it really depends on how thoroughly the systems administrator is trying to log things
[07:22] <DShepherd> I am looking for some impress templates that I can download.. know where i can get them from?
[07:22] <novato_br> I can't get it pressing them
[07:22] <Jtkiefer> if they're really trying nothing you do can remove all the commands
[07:23] <cox377> DShepherd: np dude - i'm just working on a solution i';ve just found - wish me luck :P
[07:23] <Morris562> Pici: Is it possible to use the cdless boot method to boot from an iso on another harddrive, rather then download it from the net? (netboot)
[07:23] <DShepherd> cox377, good luck :-)
[07:23] <cox377> DShepherd: yup it worked
[07:23] <cox377> :D
[07:23] <DShepherd> cox377, nice..
[07:23] <scales11> scripter111: if ndiswrapper works fine, could you help me get it going?  haha
[07:23] <scripter111> lol
[07:23] <scripter111> sure
[07:24] <internet_>  oyuu
[07:24] <DShepherd> cox377, did the link i give you help?
[07:24] <AE86> hi there..  linux newb over here =)
[07:24] <novato_br> looking at my keboard i see it
[07:24] <novato_br> Pici, looking at my keboard i see it
[07:24] <cox377> DShepherd: not in this instance but if shall have look and see if they did find a solution else post my one
[07:24] <_nix_> AE86: hello
[07:24] <AE86> =)
[07:24] <DShepherd> cox377, yeah you do that..
[07:24] <novato_br> Pici: but i can't get it
[07:25] <Shoeb> Hello, how can I remove complete ssh login logs?
[07:25] <Morris562> Someone know if it's possible to use the cdless boot method to boot from an iso on another harddrive, rather then download it from the net? (netboot)
[07:25] <novato_br> Pici: when I pressing it is show ">"
[07:25] <_nix_> Morris562: if the iso is a linux one and uses isolinux for boot loader, then yes.. there's a way
[07:26] <Morris562> nix: its the ubuntu current desktop release, would you have a link with a tutorial perhaps?
[07:26] <Geoffrey2> I'm setting up the pdf printer driver...cups detected the pdf "printer", and I'm looking at the generic printer driver list, but I've forgotten which one is recommended....
[07:26] <someguyinperu> hello
[07:27] <scripter111> scales11: the private message thing doesnt work for me
[07:27] <scripter111> i have to register brb
[07:27] <Crane_> hi
[07:27] <scales11> scripter111: alright well i followed that tutorial, and i believe that things went alright, however i still think i am using madwifi
[07:28] <scales11> scripter111: if i run dmesg i get entries like ath0: no IPv6 routers present
[07:28] <unimatrix9> hello jono
[07:28] <_nix_> Morris562: not sure about a tutorial out there. but you can look into the isolinux.cfg to check out what files are loaded with what parameters and then feed that into grub to get it started
[07:28] <scripter111> brb
[07:28] <Poromenos> how can I tar from stdin?
[07:28] <Bacon|ubuntu> Hey, where do I get the wirless software for my laptop broadcom integrated wireless unit
[07:28] <scales11> scripter111: and ath0 link becomes ready
[07:28] <Bacon|ubuntu> someone mind giving me the terminal command for that?
[07:28] <Morris562> nix: thank you, i'll go have a look see now but I have a feeling i'll be back with a question or two more for ya =)
[07:29] <dirtdawg> Anyone know if Intel cards still crash when running 3D apps in Feisty? Thanks.
[07:29] <dirtdawg> That is, they used to crash in Dapper...
[07:32] <dirtdawg> man, is there some way to prevent irc from telling me every time someone enters or leaves? Driving me nutzo
[07:32] <Azu1> what im client?
[07:32] <dirtdawg> Gaim
[07:32] <XAngelusX> hi to everybody
[07:32] <Bacon|ubuntu> when I make a new partition for linux, do I want it to be logical or primary?
[07:32] <Azu1> i don't know.. i don't have irc buddies
[07:33] <dirtdawg> ok, thx anyways
[07:33] <Azu1> Bacon|ubuntu: it has to be primary if you want it to boot
[07:33] <Poromenos> how can I tar something from stdin?
[07:33] <Bacon|ubuntu> ok.
[07:33] <XAngelusX> Use the Gaim for IRC
[07:34] <foso> i took about 15 gigs off the xp partition using gparted livecd but now i cant put them on the ubuntu partition or back on the xp one
[07:34] <Bacon|ubuntu> now I get the "no root file system is defined" error
[07:35] <Bacon|ubuntu> i dont understand that
[07:35] <Azu1> Bacon|ubuntu: you have to create a partition
[07:35] <Crane_> Bacon|ubuntu: I would suggest having your boot partition on a primary but you do not have to install the OS on a primary partition
[07:35] <Bacon|ubuntu> I did...
[07:35] <novato_br> how can I set up my keboard layout ?
[07:35] <Azu1> Bacon|ubuntu: did you choose to mount it as /
[07:35] <sipior> novato_br: System->Preferences->Keyboard
[07:35] <Crane_> Bacon|ubuntu: how did you create the partiton, from the install CD?
[07:35] <Bacon|ubuntu> nope
[07:36] <Bacon|ubuntu> I should do thzt
[07:36] <novato_br> thx, sipior
[07:36] <Bacon|ubuntu> I have vista on one hd
[07:36] <Azu1> yes you should
[07:36] <Bacon|ubuntu> and a usb drive on another
[07:36] <Bacon|ubuntu> I want it on the usb with no interference to my vista partition
[07:36] <Azu1> i don't know if that would work out, i never tried it
[07:37] <foso> anyone have the same problem in gparted?
[07:37] <Azu1> but it has to interfere with at least the bootloader
[07:37] <Crane_> Bacon|ubuntu: You need to specify a / partition
[07:37] <Crane_> Bacon|ubuntu: it can be on and extended partiton
[07:38] <Azu1> foso: i've always had problems when i used gparted.. don't use that crappy shit.. use fdisk
[07:38] <Baubal> I am trying to tunnel an X app via SSH.  I am connecting to server via 'ssh -X user@blah.com' then am "export DISPLAY=localhost:10.0' but its not working.  Also tried "export DISPLAY=localhost:11.0" and still not working... any thoughts or ideas?
[07:39] <Bacon|ubuntu> i dont think you guys understand
[07:39] <Bacon|ubuntu> i just want linux on my 2.5 external drive
[07:39] <dirtdawg> isnt there an IRC command to mute people coming and going? Seems like there must be.
[07:39] <foso> is that a live cd too?
[07:39] <Azu1> why not get damn small linux
[07:39] <Azu1> or a live cd
[07:39] <Azu1> it's better than installing it on a usb
[07:39] <Bacon|ubuntu> i have a live cd
 I think what theyre trying to say is it would still interfear with windows because if you want to boot it you need to edit your boot settings
[07:40] <Bacon|ubuntu> but i want to sae things on there
[07:40] <Azu1> dirtdawg: there is if you are admin
[07:40] <Poromenos> does anyone know how to use tar?
[07:40] <foso> ill give that a shot azul, thanks
[07:40] <sipior> foso: there's nothing wrong with gparted, but it can't merge partitions together, which sounds like what you're attempting
[07:40] <PriceChild> dirtdawg, i think you can use /ignore somehow... not sure...
[07:40] <|malajenho|> I've installed BERYL in my laptop with ATI Radeon X200 and works perfectly, but resolution is limited to 1024x768, what could I do ?
[07:40] <Azu1> Poromenos: man tar
[07:40] <dirtdawg> Azu1: Of this computer? I am.
[07:40] <Bacon|ubuntu> Marris562, I know I'll need to change the boot settings to go to my usb drive
[07:40] <Azu1> foso: good luck.. you have to learn it thought, it's not as easy
[07:40] <Poromenos> Azu1: i did
[07:40] <Sidey> can anyone recognize that I am being recieved plz
[07:40] <PriceChild> hi Sidey
[07:40] <foso> sipior, i have 15 gigs unallocated, and cant put them anywhere
[07:40] <Morris562> Whats shaken Sidey
[07:40] <Sidey> ok. thats god a thing
[07:41] <vidal> buenas
[07:41] <Azu1> Poromenos: generally to untar something use "tar xvzf filename.tar.gz"
[07:41] <Crane_> Bacon|ubuntu: during install you will have to install a boot loader to boot the linux partition
[07:41] <Sidey> struggling badly.. with setup and grub issues
[07:41] <sathish> hi
[07:41] <Poromenos> Azu1: i can untar fine, i need to tar stdio
[07:41] <Poromenos> it won't accept it :/
[07:41] <Azu1> dirtdawg: of this room, not this computer
[07:41] <dirtdawg> oh right
[07:41] <dirtdawg> well no
[07:41] <Azu1> dirtdawg: you want to ingore?
[07:41] <Crane_> it will effect you windows boot process a little as it will boot to the boot loader first
[07:41] <Azu1> ignroe
[07:41] <Azu1> ignore
[07:41] <Sidey> got error now, check root = bootarg cat /proc/cmdlin
[07:41] <sipior> foso: i understand that. you'll need to make a new partition, or extend the old one to cover the space. if you've tried this and it didn't work, was any error message given?
[07:41] <dirtdawg> Azu1: just want to ignore all the "so-and-so entered|left the room"
[07:42] <Sidey> and dropped to shell
[07:42] <Azu1> Poromenos: i never tarred, only untarred
[07:42] <Sidey> I am so damn lost ATM
[07:42] <Azu1> it shouldn't be so hard
[07:42] <Poromenos> Azu1: :(
[07:42] <Azu1> dirtdawg: i get it
[07:42] <|malajenho|> I've installed BERYL in my laptop with ATI Radeon X200 and works perfectly, but resolution is limited to 1024x768, what could I do ?
[07:42] <Azu1> /ignore AceMan
[07:42] <Azu1> opps
[07:42] <foso> sipior, i can make a new partition out of it, but i want to put that space on the ubuntu partition
[07:43] <Azu1> didn't work
[07:43] <dirtdawg> lol
[07:43] <sipior> foso: is the ubuntu partition adjacent to the unused space?
[07:43] <foso> no, theres my swap partition inbetween them sipior
[07:43] <XAngelusX> hi to everybody , i have a problem , my /etc/inittab doesnt exist , and i cant configure the tty shells , anyone knows about this , Ubuntu suppos not to be ok , but it runs perfectly .
[07:44] <Bacon|ubuntu> Ok, so I cant just make a partition on my usb drive without it affecting windows?
[07:44] <scales11> scripter111: i will talk to you in a bit, the boss is commin
[07:44] <idefixx> XAngelusX: ubuntu uses upstart.
[07:44] <XAngelusX> mmmmmm
[07:44] <leninIdebian> hallo
[07:44] <XAngelusX> where is this file?
[07:44] <leninIdebian> does anyone know howto mirror a directory
[07:44] <Pici> dirtdawg: in irssi its /ignore #channel JOINS PARTS QUITS
[07:45] <leninIdebian> not copy, mirror (preserve rights etc...)
[07:45] <sipior> foso: pity, that makes things awkward. you can resize partitions, but generally can't move the beginning position, only the end (at least for ext3 filesystems). you might consider deleting the swap partition temporarily, moving the ubuntu partition up, and then sticking swap back on the end
[07:45] <dirtdawg> Pici: thaks for that, Ill give it a shot
[07:45] <phalcon> leninIdebian: have you tried linking it?
[07:45] <novato_br> ok, how can I get restart my "keboard"? I did set up...
[07:45] <Pici> leninIdebian: check out the cp manpage, theres something in there for preserving permissions and stuff.
[07:45] <sipior> foso: an alternative is to back up the disk, and then rearrange everything at once. this is often the simplest course, frankly
[07:46] <idefixx> XAngelusX: /etc/event.d/
[07:46] <XAngelusX> mmmmmmm
[07:46] <XAngelusX> thx
[07:46] <scripter111> whats the command to make a private chat
[07:46] <phalcon> foso:  have you tried using gparted to merge that unused space into an existing partition?
[07:46] <foso> sipior, 1 its right after the xp partition and i cant change that one still
[07:46] <foso> 2 sipior how would i go about rearranging the whole thing at once?
[07:46] <Bacon|ubuntu> I'm so agrivated
[07:47] <foso> phalcon, i dont think you can do that in gparted, according to what someone said on here, but i am trying gparted
[07:47] <Crane_> Bacon|ubuntu: yes and no, it's hard to explain but,
[07:47] <sipior> foso: back up all data, rearrange partitions to taste, reformat, then restore from backup
[07:47] <XAngelusX> idefixx , one question more , and how i must configure it to not start the other ttys?
[07:47] <leninIdebian> pici: do you know if it does work correctly
[07:47] <Bacon|ubuntu> Crane, I have a separatwe harddrive
[07:47] <ekso> anyone have any tips on configuring a dhcp server for internect connection sharing?
[07:47] <scripter111> i wish
[07:47] <Bacon|ubuntu> unrelated to my windows hd
[07:47] <foso> sipior, i see what youre saying now
[07:47] <scripter111> thats one of my probs too
[07:47] <phalcon> foso:  if not, and you're still able to boot to windows there are programs you can get that will do that
[07:47] <raymondjtoth> how i get pal talk working in ubuntu
[07:48] <ziggy23> Two questions: (1) Can and (more importantly) should fsck be used on an NTFS-formatted volume?
[07:48] <foso> phalcon, are they free? im poor
[07:48] <raymondjtoth> i saw this plug in  gaim-pt
[07:48] <Bacon|ubuntu> Crane, I would like to install ubuntu to a usb 2.5" harddrive
[07:48] <raymondjtoth> were i get it
[07:48] <Crane_> Bacon|ubuntu: there is a way to install some distro to another partituion or hard drive and put a boot loader on a floppy. Althoug I am not sure how to do this in ubuntu
[07:48] <Bacon|ubuntu> without it doing anything to another harddrive
[07:48] <Deeeep> hey....my ISP is sify and i have problems installing their client in ubuntu.....can anyone provide me info regarding tht
[07:48] <Sidey> any ideas on my cmdline error?
[07:48] <joao> Hi, I need some help configuring my tv card. I used to config it using the /etc/modprobe.conf file, but this file don't exist anymore. If I create the file, the kernel will fetch the configuration parameters from it?
[07:48] <dirtdawg> Pici: alright. Got irssi. Works better now. :)
[07:48] <sipior> ekso: sorry, what does dhcp have to do with forwarding a connexion?
[07:48] <leninIdebian> ziggy: no ntfs is more or less experimental
[07:48] <idefixx> XAngelusX: just remove or comment the files that say ttyX to ttyY
[07:48] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: can your PC boot a USB device?
[07:48] <Bacon|ubuntu> Crane, I dont mind going through the bios and switching to my USB to boot
[07:48] <scripter111> scales11: u ther?
[07:49] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak, yes.
[07:49] <XAngelusX> ok
[07:49] <phalcon> foso:  google is your friend.  it's been a long time since i've used windows, but i hear there are some out there.
[07:49] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: it should be pretty easy..
[07:49] <scales11> scripter111: yeah i am, i just have to finish a few quick things
[07:49] <IndyGunFreak> did you try google
[07:49] <leninIdebian> ziggy: if you are are working with ntfs use under any circumstances windows
[07:49] <sipior> ekso: perhaps i should ask what you're trying to accomplish first :)
[07:49] <scales11> scripter111: i will let you know when i am back
[07:49] <Bacon|ubuntu> Grub wont overwrite any windows boot loaders will it?
[07:49] <ziggy23> thanks leninIdebian
[07:49] <scripter111> scales11: no prob, sry for being a bitch
[07:49] <scales11> scripter111: nah no worries
[07:49] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: it might... if it does, run FixMBR/FixBoot and it will restore the Windows bootloader
[07:50] <XAngelusX> thx
[07:50] <phalcon> Bacon|ubuntu: if you write grub to the MBR or sector 0 it will overwrite windows bootloader
[07:50] <b1dik> anyone here who can help me to get my wireless to work? iti s on a laptop.
[07:50] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak, I'm running vista
[07:50] <foso> thanks falcon and sipior
[07:50] <phalcon> b1dik: do you know what chipset the wireless card uses?
[07:50] <idefixx> Bacon|ubuntu: it will overwrite the windows mbr but it will enable you to boot windows from there on.
[07:50] <IndyGunFreak> !wireless
[07:50] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:50] <Bacon|ubuntu> but the USB harddrive is total separate from my windows harddrive
[07:50] <dirtdawg> I have a Dapper install with a /storage partition I no longer use. I want to delete it and install different distros onto it. Do I need to delete it from my Dapper install's fstab before I delete the actual partition? Thanks.
[07:50] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: oh i see
[07:50] <foso> one more question for you smarter people before i go, how do i force acpi
[07:50] <Bacon|ubuntu> Guys, I dont want GRUB
[07:50] <olliee> Hi, is it possible to find the mac-addr of a computer that is over an VPN tunnel. The client (10.0.1.2) is opening a page on 10.0.10.1 but i want to show the mac-addr for the client on 10.0.10.1. Im reading the 'arp table' via 'arp -a' but it only shows the last router, before 10.0.10.1
[07:51] <Bacon|ubuntu> I just want to get to linux through switching my bios config
[07:51] <foso> like where do i enter it? trying to install ubuntu on another old laptop
[07:51] <olliee> So, 10.0.1.2 -> 10.0.5.1 -> 10.0.10.1 and it's showing the MAC for 10.0.5.1 :/
[07:51] <olliee> Is that even possible?
[07:51] <scripter111> i dont need wireless help i just need help mounting the module(ndiswrapper)
[07:51] <ekso> sipior: im trying to give an internal ip to my father laptop that is visiting me, so he can share the internet connection :] 
[07:51] <Deeeep> settings for getting internet through sify ISP work.......!!
[07:51] <leninIdebian> scripter: modprobe -i  ndiswrapper and pray
[07:51] <idefixx> Bacon|ubuntu: if you dont want grub u cant boot linux that like saying i want xp but no ntldr
[07:51] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: you're probably gonna have to install Grub to either the MBR of hte usb drive(might work), or use the super grub disk, and copy it to a floppy..
[07:51] <Linux_Scrub> Hello, all!
[07:51] <IndyGunFreak> idefixx: he just doesnt want grub on the MBR of his main drive
[07:51] <stefg> dirtdawg: yup, dlete te correspondng line from /etc/fstab and umount it.
[07:52] <dirtdawg> stefg fantastic. Thank you
[07:52] <idefixx> IndyGunFreak: oh.. should have read a bit more :)
[07:52] <sipior> ekso: oh, in that case, just edit the sample dhcpd.conf to give out an appropriate address. although frankly, dhcp is probably overkill for a temporary situation like this
[07:52] <bjron> anyone know if it's possible to use sftp w/ a username containing an @ symbol?
[07:52] <IndyGunFreak> idefixx: lol,
[07:52] <Linux_Scrub> I have a question about Ubuntu 6.06?
[07:52] <scripter111> leninldebian: thanks, im in windows right now but i have a feeling that wont work
[07:52] <Bacon|ubuntu> Ok, I have two harddrives, hda (Windows partition takes up all of it) and hdb (30gb USB Drive)
[07:52] <b1dik> can someone help me to get my wireless work? a Broadcom 4318. PM me... Thanks
[07:52] <ekso> sipior: what would be the best/easier setup?
[07:52] <Bacon|ubuntu> I dont want anything to do with the windows drive
[07:52] <sipior> ekso: just set an ip address appropriate to your internal network, no need to muck about with dhcp
[07:52] <Bacon|ubuntu> I want all of it no the USB without messing up hda
[07:53] <Linux_Scrub> I have a question about Ubuntu 6.06?
[07:53] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: have you bothered with google?
[07:53] <IndyGunFreak> !ask | Linux_Scrub
[07:53] <ubotu> Linux_Scrub: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:53] <Bacon|ubuntu> No.
[07:53] <Bacon|ubuntu> I dont have a floppy drive
[07:53] <ekso> sipior: mmmm... how do i do that...? :] 
[07:53] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: thats gonna be the place to start.
[07:53] <neuro_> ubotu: \o/
[07:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about o/ - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:53] <sipior> ekso: make sure your ip address and that of your father's laptop are on the same subnet, then adjust iptables to forward that connexion
[07:53] <b1dik> can someone help me to get my wireless work? a Broadcom 4318. PM me... Thanks
[07:53] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: try google.
[07:53] <sipior> ekso: are you familiar with /sbin/ifconfig?
[07:54] <ekso> sipior: yeah, i was trying to understand what iptables is, i was looking for info on that right now
[07:54] <Bacon|ubuntu> with a 32bit distro work on a 64 bit core?
[07:54] <phalcon> Bacon|ubuntu: then write grub to that disk's MBR say your hard drive is /dev/sda1 and the usb drive is /dev/sda2 just make sure grub writes to /dev/sda2
[07:54] <ekso> sipior: not much
[07:54] <Linux_Scrub> I was wondering if there is any issues with installing on to SATA HD's. I've found that Gparted can read it?
[07:54] <Enselic_> How do I remove /ignore:s in XChat?
[07:54] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: yes, and its probably what you want, even if your hardware supports x64
[07:54] <Bacon|ubuntu> phalco, is that part of the option in the install?
[07:54] <NigelS> Linux_Scrub: SATA should be fine
[07:54] <Crane_> sorry got called away for work
[07:54] <IndyGunFreak> Linux_Scrub: should be fine
[07:54] <tkaplan> Does anyone know why there is no Httpd.conf when I use the package install of apache2
[07:54] <ekso> sipior: i've just realized it's the only thing that most closely resembles ipconfig from windowze :)
[07:54] <tkaplan> All I see is apache2.conf why is that????
[07:55] <Linux_Scrub> Is there a trick to getting it to read?
[07:55] <sipior> ekso: okay, so you've got two ethernet cards in your main pc, one set to whatever ip your isp doles out. set the ip of the second with "ifconfig eth1 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255"
[07:55] <NigelS> Linux_Scrub: nope, shouldn't be - many controllers are in the kernel
[07:55] <b1dik> #ubuntu-no
[07:55] <tkaplan> Anyone want to help me out with the Ubuntu Apache2 installation??
[07:55] <sipior> ekso: on your dad's laptop, set his ip address with "ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255"
[07:55] <Linux_Scrub> Can I DCC someone?  I haven't used IRC in some time and all the text flying by is distracting
[07:55] <tkaplan> Just have a few questions as to why it is installed that why
[07:55] <Bacon|ubuntu> I dont want grub on my windows drive...
[07:56] <Bacon|ubuntu> at all
[07:56] <b1dik> can someone please help me?
[07:56] <foso> where do i enter acpi=force to get the livecd to load on this old computer?
[07:56] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: you've made that clear
[07:56] <leninIdebian> Bacon|ubuntu: use lilo :)
[07:56] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[07:56] <ekso> sipior: thanks!!!! i will try that!
[07:56] <Bacon|ubuntu> Indy, I dont mind going in BIOS and changing it so that the USB comes first...
[07:56] <mrobbert> tkaplan: I'm not an Apache expert, but maybe that is a change from Apache 1.x to 2
[07:56] <tkaplan> has anyone installed apache2 using the ubuntu installation package?
[07:56] <sipior> ekso: hang on, you're not done
[07:56] <tkaplan> I see
[07:56] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: and thats fine, but you will still have to have Grub on the USB drive.
[07:57] <tkaplan> but there was alot of talk online about their being a bug
[07:57] <NigelS> Bacon|ubuntu: then don't install it to your windows drive, do so on the USB one but your BIOS would need to support booting from USB. An alternative is to use NTLDR to bootstrap an image of a grub MBR, e.g. 512 bytes.  You can put it in boot.ini. Google if you want exact steps.
[07:57] <tkaplan> I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on the subject
[07:57] <Bacon|ubuntu> ok, so will putting grub on the usb drive affect my windows drive?
[07:57] <idefixx> tkaplan: i never used apache on ubuntu i guess its like on debian, meaing it cuts the config into smaler easyer to read/edit pieces
[07:57] <ekso> sipior: yes, this other laptop is not ubuntu, its windows :(
[07:57] <ompaul> Linux_Scrub, I know of no reasons offhand why 6.06 could not edit a sata drive I have it on 20 machines in work
[07:57] <Linux_Scrub> I already have Win XP installed on the HD.  I do have lots of empty space that is unpartitioned.  Any suggestions?
[07:57] <idefixx> tkaplan: it probaly includes a bunch of stuff from /etc/apache2/dumbconfigdir
[07:57] <sipior> ekso: ah, that's a pity :)
[07:57] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: it shouldn't, problem is, almost all the installers I've saw, installs Grub to the mBR of the main drive by default
[07:57] <mrobbert> tkaplan: What exactly is it that you want light shed on?
[07:58] <jetrii> server irc.inanelymac.com
[07:58] <scales11> scripter111: ok back.
[07:58] <ompaul> Linux_Scrub, 17 of which have sata, one with scsi and one with ide
[07:58] <sipior> ekso: well, set up iptables to forward the connexion, you can easily google for the syntax to do that
[07:58] <scripter111> yo scales
[07:58] <Bacon|ubuntu> geez...
[07:58] <scripter111> PT?
[07:58] <Bacon|ubuntu> this is horrible...

[07:58] <leninIdebian> !apache2
[07:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about apache2 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:58] <tkaplan> ill take a look
[07:58] <ekso> sipior: ok, tks for the help!

[07:58] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[07:59] <sipior> ekso: good luck
[07:59] <IndyGunFreak> bayzider: i had that same proble when i tried fluxbox.

[07:59] <bayzider> IndyGunFreak: You think the package might be corrupted or something?

[08:02] <bayzider> Owch, a new distro is not worth a new desktop enviorment...
[08:02] <bayzider> I will ask on the forums
[08:02] <sebrock> how do I start Ubuntu in runlevel 3???????
[08:02] <Azu1> look for init.d
[08:03] <sebrock> yes?
[08:03] <aMMuNix> I've followed this http://blogs.developerfusion.co.uk/blogs/thushan/archive/2007/02/02/1775.aspx guide to restore my grub menu back after installing windows XP on another partition, but now I don't have windows XP on my grub, any way I can add it?
[08:03] <Linux_Scrub> So if I can't get the install to detect the HD I should download the ISO w. the text version of the installer.  If this doesn't work does anyone have a walk around>
[08:04] <sebrock> Azul, yes and then what?
[08:04] <stefg> !grub | aMMuNix
[08:04] <Azu1> yes, search for init.d in google
[08:04] <ubotu> aMMuNix: 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
[08:04] <Azu1> it is the thing that allows you to run in level 3
[08:04] <idefixx> sebrock: im not really sure never used that in ubuntu but i guess /etc/event.d/rc-default does that somehow.
[08:04] <aMMuNix> thanks stefg
[08:04] <Scripter124> scales11: pt please
[08:04] <sebrock> I figure ubuntu only has 2 different runlevles by default
[08:04] <pitrovich>  !    ?
[08:04] <scales11> Scripter124: what is pt?
[08:05] <scales11> pm?
[08:05] <idefixx> sebrock: when you look at the script it just checks for inittab (which doesnt exists) and defaults sto 2 (at the end) probably just change that to3 :)
[08:05] <Scripter124> private talk
[08:05] <stefg> !ru | pitrovich

[08:05] <Scripter124> is that better
[08:05] <ekso> !pt | ekso
[08:05] <sebrock> idefixx how what?
[08:05] <IndyGunFreak> Scripter124: problem is, if yuou're not registered, you can't send pms
[08:06] <PriceChild> IndyGunFreak, you can, others just won't get them by default ;)
[08:06] <idefixx> sebrock: did you find the script i was talking about?
[08:06] <etronik> Hi all, I need to setup internet file sharing with access control i.e. given user only accesses a defined directory tree, what r the best recommended tools for the Job? webdav or SFTP or others ?
[08:07] <sebrock> idefixx which one?
[08:08] <idefixx> sebrock: the one i mentioned when i first hilighted you here in the chan... look above.
[08:08] <phalcon> etronik: how many people will be using the server and what size are the files you want to host?
[08:08] <ZeZu> how can i redirect stderr w/ stdout to a file ?
[08:08] <sebrock> event.d?
[08:08] <ZeZu> is it like >1&2 or such?
[08:08] <idefixx> sebrock: dude there is a path infront of that!
[08:08] <sebrock> OK Im in that now
[08:09] <sebrock> idefixx now what?
[08:09] <idefixx> sebrock: well look at line 20 it says 'telinit 2' which is the runlev it defaults to. im not sure about this... but i guess that is what makes ubuntu go to rc2.
[08:09] <TheCougar> how would i go about installing synergy on ubuntu desktop?
[08:10] <sebrock> hm
[08:10] <idefixx> sebrock: in any case why do you want to change the runlevel?
[08:10] <Azu1> wtf is serengy?
[08:10] <greyfrog> TheCougar, it's in repos right?
[08:10] <Linux_Scrub> If I don't have to resize any partitions then 6.06 should create a partition on its own, correct?
[08:10] <sebrock> running a fileserver gui not needed
[08:10] <TheCougar> sorry synergy
[08:10] <TheCougar> greyfrog: .rpm
[08:10] <IndyGunFreak> Linux_Scrub: yes
[08:10] <scales11> has anyone tried the graphical frontend for ndiswrapper?
[08:10] <ubuntuEdgy> check this out http://www.picotux.com/
[08:10] <greyfrog> TheCougar, sudo apt-get install synergy it's in the repos
[08:10] <IndyGunFreak> Linux_Scrub: why are you installing 6.06/
[08:10] <IndyGunFreak> ?
[08:11] <Linux_Scrub> Indygun, of all the help pages found, there isn't an answer as to why I'm not seeing my SATA HD
[08:11] <idefixx> sebrock: unless you are on ubutnu-server my rc3 start gdm, too...
[08:12] <babo> I can print from FF but when I open a pdf document it won't print from that :-( ...
[08:12] <IndyGunFreak> Linux_Scrub: i really don't know, i don't mess with Sata... all of my drives are IDE...
[08:12] <TheCougar> greyfrog: i've actaully never installed anything in linux before:) always used ports types of installs
[08:12] <IndyGunFreak> Linux_Scrub: how many drives do you have inside your PC?
[08:12] <phalcon> sberock: look for the line id:2:initdefault int /etc/initab and change it to id:3:initdefault
[08:12] <sebrock> idefixx I use ubuntu server, thing is I installed ubuntu-desktop for some configuration pupose
[08:12] <greyfrog> TheCougar, ahhh ;) you should try to use the Synaptic tool or apt-get or aptitude to install things in ubuntu...
[08:13] <Linux_Scrub> I have an Asus M2R32-MVP mobo with a single SATA drive.  It has 2 NTFS partitions on it already, and over 100 GB of free space
[08:13] <TheCougar> greyfrog: synaptic tool?
[08:13] <greyfrog> TheCougar, in System->Administrator menu there should be an option for Synaptic
[08:14] <idefixx> sebrock: well im not the best person to help you with that.. since i never used ubuntu server, and from what i know on that issue (not much) server does this kind of stuff very different.
[08:14] <greyfrog> TheCougar, use the search option in Synaptic to search for synergy
[08:14] <IndyGunFreak> Linux_Scrub: i don't know, doesn't make any sense
[08:14] <Linux_Scrub> Indygun, that free space is unpartitioned and not formated
[08:14] <Corvinis-V> Guys Question: Where can I find the httpd.conf file for apache in ubuntu? I checked the one in /etc/apache2/ but it's empty... I want to enable the mod spelling
[08:14] <babo> why won't it print from the pdf document ?
[08:14] <IndyGunFreak> Linux_Scrub: ok.
[08:14] <visham> hi folks
[08:14] <hgh> A question about rss-feeds. I just installed Liferea and when I click one of the news in it I get like two rows of text and when I click it Firefox opens the real article. Isn't there a way to have Liferea show me the entire article right away and just read all news there? Or is rss just a "oh-there's-something-new-on-this-page-i'll-go-check-it-out-then"-thing?
[08:14] <visham> any nmap users here?
[08:14] <Linux_Scrub> I'm going to sleep on it for now!  Thanks for trying though
[08:14] <kane77> is there any "mouse gestures" program for ubuntu?
[08:15] <IndyGunFreak> Linux_Scrub: you might try downloading and burning the current version of Ubuntu
[08:15] <Linux_Scrub> Peace out, all!
[08:15] <jenda> kane77: not that I'm aware of...
[08:15] <kane77> Linux_Scrub, bye
[08:15] <Linux_Scrub> 7.01
[08:15] <IndyGunFreak> Linux_Scrub: you said you had dapper..
[08:15] <IndyGunFreak> 7.04 is current
[08:15] <Linux_Scrub> or 7.04 even
[08:16] <mrobbert> hgh: sometimes rss feeds are shorter versions of a full article, it depends on the feed, most that I read are more than 2 lines though.
[08:16] <Linux_Scrub> I'll give that a try.  I though I do have the CD with 6.06 in hand
[08:16] <visham> i use kununtu 6.06 and 'nmap -sS -T4 -O scanme.nmap.org' breaks my internet connection after few minutes
[08:16] <visham> whats the problem?
[08:16] <IndyGunFreak> Linux_Scrub: well, thats about a year and a half old.
[08:16] <visham> i use adsl modem and dlink ethernet card
[08:16] <Linux_Scrub> SATA has been out that long hasn't it?
[08:17] <hgh> mrobbert, ok thanks. that's too bad, you should get the full article right away, less clicking that way :)
[08:17] <rflmnz> hello!! everytime when I change the device from vesa to FGLRX i got a black screen.... What's the problem??
[08:17] <idefixx> Linux_Scrub: yes
[08:17] <urko> hello everyone
[08:17] <IndyGunFreak> Linux_Scrub: i think so..
[08:17] <ompaul> visham, is your isp watching you and saying "no"
[08:17] <visham> ompaul: no my isp is dumb
[08:17] <jadu_> hi
[08:17] <TheCougar> greyfrog: thank you
[08:17] <mrobbert> hgh: I think that there is an option to download the full web page, but most feeds don't need that.
[08:17] <Linux_Scrub> Also had a question about Linksys wireless card.  There isn't any WPA support in the network settings for the card?
[08:17] <Corvinis-V> Does anyone know ?
[08:18] <ompaul> Linux_Scrub, get the live CD and test your hardware
[08:18] <IndyGunFreak> Linux_Scrub: there is w/ WPA Supplicant
[08:18] <jadu_> can anybody tell me how i can get and install xmms2 for ubuntu 7.04
[08:18] <IndyGunFreak> !wpa
[08:18] <greyfrog> TheCougar, no problem :) Synaptic can also be used to uninstall software that you decide not to use... have fun!
[08:18] <IndyGunFreak> jadu_: xmms2?
[08:18] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[08:18] <phalcon> Corvinis-V: httpd.conf isn't used in apache2
[08:18] <Linux_Scrub> !wpa
[08:18] <visham> ompaul: is there some low level packet handling stuff that freezes my ethernet card
[08:18] <urko> I am corious abaout one thing.If manually install latest Nvidia drivers my xorg after reboot dont' work.Is it becouse driver, system or mybe something else????
[08:19] <Tommy_> sorry no - zapomnialem zmienic nicka z tej amandy
[08:19] <jadu_> yes xmms2 the second edition of xmms player
[08:19] <visham> ompaul: has similar problems be reported
[08:19] <ianm_> does anyone have any information about the issue with the D-Link DWL-650 wireless card (prism2 based) that broke in feisty?
[08:19] <ompaul> visham, check launchpad.net for your hardware
[08:19] <phalcon> Corvinis-V: you can add options to it though, as it still gets read by httpd at startup
[08:19] <IndyGunFreak> jadu_: didn't know there was a 2nd edition, thats all, i knew the first one was no longer upgraded/supported, so i switched.
[08:20] <visham> ompaul: my guess is the the ethernet card is unable to handle the load nmap generates
[08:20] <jadu_> www.xmms2.org
[08:20] <visham> am i correct
[08:20] <TheCougar> greyfrog: one last thing. i delieted the bar (panel?) at the bottom of my screen and have not seen where to put it back on. any suggestions?
[08:20] <BlueDevil> how do i recompile linux-restricted-modules?
[08:20] <jadu_> what player i can use? Because i want to stream music in mp3 format to a shoutcast server
[08:21] <phalcon> BlueEagle: sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules
[08:21] <TheCougar> ha nevermind greyfrog found:)
[08:21] <IndyGunFreak> jadu_: i have no idea
[08:21] <Linux_Scrub> Thanks again for your help folks!
[08:21] <greyfrog> TheCougar, cool :) where was the option
[08:21] <Linux_Scrub>  Bye!
[08:21] <jadu_> for both no idea
[08:21] <ompaul> visham, that should not cause a freeze, unless you have some silly card, and really without access to the box how is anyone going to know and the theory is a bit strange, as the stack should not try to drive more than the card can take
[08:22] <TheCougar> greyfrog: on the bar at the top... now if i don't delete both i should be fine;)
[08:22] <mrobbert> jadu_, have you looked at VLC? It is supposed to handle most media codecs and has lots of network support
[08:22] <greyfrog> TheCougar, lol, cool... thanks for the info :)
[08:22] <IndyGunFreak> mrobbert: but does it stream?
[08:22] <Azu1> VLC sucks, use mplayer
[08:22] <jadu_> no i dont know a linux version of it
[08:22] <TheCougar> greyfrog: i accidently deleted the multiple desktop thing on the bottom one and in my attempts to figure out what addon for the panel it was i deleted the panel lol
[08:23] <IndyGunFreak> Azu1: you're crazy..lol,
[08:23] <jadu_> mplayer?
[08:23] <Azu1> yeah
[08:23] <greyfrog> TheCougar, at least it was an easy fix ;)
[08:23] <IndyGunFreak> jadu_: what plugin do you need to stream?
[08:23] <visham> ompaul: any other reasons why nmap breaks the connection
[08:23] <jadu_> mp3
[08:23] <Azu1> mplayerhq.hu
[08:23] <rflmnz> heelo!! Everytime when I change the device from VESA to FGLRX I got a black screen.... I'm using Ubuntu 7.04 and my videocard is an ATI X1300...
[08:24] <visham> ompaul: or is there a bug in nmap itself which is unreported
[08:24] <IndyGunFreak> jadu_: nevermind
[08:24] <jeff2> I have "jeff    ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL" in my /etc/sudoers (edited with visudo), but sudo still sometimes asked me for my password. why?
[08:24] <aMMuNix> why can't I write anything to my windows' NTFS partition from ubuntu?
[08:24] <jadu_> mplayer is a videoplayer

[08:26] <phalcon> i wouldn't trust ntfs-3g.  hosed my windows partition twice
[08:26] <cyber_brain_mfkg> hi all!something's wrong with my gnome baker!!!don't have idea whats wrong!can't burn cd images as it should???any known bugs???how to fix them?
[08:26] <visham> ompaul: i even checked various setting on my ethernet card and ran nmap under each condition but no solution
[08:26] <George2> http://www.seagate.com/support/disc/ata/st340824a.html <-- anyone know why this HDD is not allowing my Ubuntu to start installation? -- gives me that darned /bin/sh : can't access tty error.
[08:26] <bayzider> Can some one paste bin there /home/username/.fluxbox/menu for me?
[08:26] <phalcon> if you're desperate just boot to windows and get an ext3 partition reader for windows and copy that way
[08:26] <F00BaR> hi, i have installed ubuntu but there is no wget command, how do i install it?
[08:26] <ompaul> visham, please go to launchpad.net or the nmap site and compile the latest and see if it happens then report the bug you find

[08:33] <Azu1> not how to install linux
[08:33] <Azu1> or how to mount ntfs

[08:34] <hboon> Azu1, if you are referring to me about mounting ntfs.. please read it again i said "hi. does anyone has any problem with ntfs-3g on an internal hard disk? When I do a touch, I am getting an error - touch: cannot touch `/media/sda2/1': Input/output error. It was previously working for me with read+write access. I can still write to external NTFS disk partitions.."
[08:34] <phalcon> Azu1: everyone has to start somewhere.  if these people are coming from windows they don't know what it means to mount a partition or what a partition is, usually.
[08:34] <Azu1> raymondjtoth: believe me sometimes someone says how to do this.. i got type it in google and the first hit answers his question pretty thoroughly and very well

[09:08] <ubotu> ikonia: 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
[09:08] <Eric_Jardas> I need some help
[09:08] <ikonia> !don't be lazy | n2diy
[09:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about don't be lazy - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:08] <ikonia> Eric_Jardas: go for it
[09:08] <n2diy> :)
[09:08] <Eric_Jardas> i installed xfce and now I can't make gnome the default session
[09:08] <ikonia> Eric_Jardas: how did you make xfce default
[09:09] <CrustyPunk> phalcon: I have the required drivers and such. By all rights, it should work but for some reason.. it isn't being seen.
[09:09] <jpatota> so wheres a guy supposed to get breezy updates now a days
[09:09] <geniusvicks> How do I get the water effect to work in Beryl
[09:09] <jpatota> i thought they would be avaliable for like 3 years for the server OS
[09:09] <ikonia> jpatota: from the breezy repo
[09:09] <Eric_Jardas> ikonia, the truth is that I didnt
[09:09] <phalcon> see if it's detected at all in dmesg
[09:09] <ikonia> Eric_Jardas: who did
[09:09] <cables> !effects | jpatota
[09:09] <jpatota> ikonia: can you point me to a sources.list
[09:09] <ubotu> jpatota: For help with Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects
[09:09] <Eric_Jardas> no one,
[09:09] <ikonia> jpatota: its already there on a breezy install
[09:09] <ikonia> Eric_Jardas: so why is gnome not the default
[09:09] <soundray> ikonia: so I have to make a mirror directory for the CD filled with uppercase links to the lowercase filenames? Annoying...
[09:10] <F00BaR> hi, take a look here: http://64.85.161.167/vhcs2/ - why doesnt it come up with the program?? Why does it show this?
[09:10] <ikonia> soundray: thats not a great idea
[09:10] <Eric_Jardas> ikonia, that is what I want to set
[09:10] <z1pp3r> im trying to recover GRUB using the guide on the wiki. However, when i type in "grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/root /dev/sda" it just stalls forever (My linux partition is on /dev/sda2 which is mounted to /mnt/root). What to do?
[09:10] <ikonia> Eric_Jardas: gnome is the default on ubuntu
[09:10] <jpatota> ikonia: im looking at http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/ and seeing no breezy
[09:10] <Pici> !sourceomatic | jpatota
[09:10] <ubotu> jpatota: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[09:10] <Eric_Jardas> ikonia, yes but its not default on my system anymore
[09:10] <ikonia> jpatota: do you have a breezy bo
[09:10] <ikonia> Eric_Jardas: why not
[09:10] <soundray> ikonia: have you got a better one? I can't change the contents of the CD...
[09:10] <Eric_Jardas> ikonia, I cant set it
[09:11] <ikonia> Eric_Jardas: gnome is the default on ubuntu - so if its not you've changed it, what have you changed
[09:11] <ikonia> soundray: why do you want all uppper case ?
[09:11] <phalcon> F00BaR: it doesn't run a program cause it's a web directory.  do you just want it to show a web page?
[09:11] <Eric_Jardas> ikonia, It must have changed it itself, the problem is how do I set it back
[09:11] <F00BaR> its suppost to
[09:11] <soundray> ikonia: because there is a directory file (DICOM standard) in the root directory that references all the CD content as uppercase files.
[09:11] <F00BaR> its suppost to be a control panel
[09:12] <ikonia> Eric_Jardas: things don't change on their own
[09:12] <Eric_Jardas> ikonia, I don't care who changed it, I just want to change it back
[09:12] <phalcon> F00BaR: go into the gui directory
[09:12] <ikonia> soundray:  explain a little more sorry, you have an app that references the CDROM but in all upper case
[09:12] <F00BaR> yes
[09:12] <ikonia> Eric_Jardas: I do care as I want to understand why its changed to tell you have to change it back properly
[09:12] <harry> my friend wants to install xubuntu on his laptop, but his cd drive doesn't work and he can't boot from usb.
[09:13] <phalcon> F00BaR: i mean, you go into the gui directory in your browswer....a login screen comes up
[09:13] <ikonia> harry unless you have an install server and pxe boot - your out of luck
[09:13] <harry> damn. he got locked out of the bios, too...
[09:13] <soundray> ikonia: no, the CD follows a standard called DICOM (medical imaging). That means it is accessed via a binary file in the root dir called DICOMDIR, which contains references, which don't work on Ubuntu because it insists on lowercase names.
[09:13] <F00BaR> phalcon, hmm, how do i fix it....
[09:14] <ikonia> soundray: ubuntu mounts the cdrom with the files as it is on the cdrom - so thats how it is. I suggest you copy the contents of the cd off somwhere and use sed to change all the file names
[09:14] <soundray> ikonia: needless to say, the DICOMDIR file was created with the assumption of a case-ignorant operating system
[09:14] <phalcon> F00BaR: it doesn't look like it's broken
[09:14] <Zed`> Hello there - I just installed 7.04 on a Thinkpad A31p - I can not get the wifi to work. The driver loads but does not see any networks (there are several about) - I tried the NDIS driver with no luck  - Not sure I did Installed the NDIS correctly, though.
[09:14] <ikonia> soundray: is this wine at all ?
[09:15] <soundray> ikonia: no
[09:15] <F00BaR> ok
[09:15] <ikonia> soundray: just checking
[09:15] <phalcon> F00BaR: i think you just want to go to /vhcs2/gui instead of just /vhcs2
[09:15] <ikonia> soundray: unusual that a unix os would be case insensitive as all unix os's are
[09:15] <soundray> ikonia: well, it's obviously not made for a unix os.
[09:15] <craigbass1976> Can anyone explain why vncviewer act this way:  My resolution on the client is the same as the server, so I have to scroll around sometimes to see what I'm after.  Once I scroll down though, I can never scroll back up.  Have to shut down the session and fire up another if I need to do something LIKE OPEN THE FILE MENU!  Anyone heard of this?
[09:15] <F00BaR> how do i make http://64.85.161.167/controlpanel go to http://64.85.161.167/vhcs2/gui/
[09:15] <ikonia> soundray: then hows it going to run ?
[09:15] <phalcon> ikonia: i thought they were case sensitive.  i know linux is
[09:16] <ikonia> phalcon: they all are - thats what I just said
[09:16] <soundray> ikonia: it's not going to "run", it's a data CD.
[09:16] <ikonia> soundray: ahhh that makes sense
[09:16] <phalcon> :ikon you said insensitive
[09:16] <ikonia> phalcon: re-read
[09:17] <soundray> phalcon: with sufficient ill-will, you can misread ikonia's line ;)
[09:17] <Jessehk> Does anyone know the situation regarding O'Caml 3.10? It's been out for a while and Ubuntu is stuck on 3.09
[09:17] <phalcon> ikonia: indeed, i did.
[09:17] <ikonia> soundray: thats the best I can think off, copy the cd off and then use sed to change it
[09:17] <Jessehk> It includes a new build tool (ocamlbuild), otherwise I wouldn't care
[09:18] <ikonia> phalcon: I said I can't believe anyone would design an app for a unix os thats case insensitive
[09:18] <jrib> soundray: not sure what you are doing, but I've been able to view dicom images using some app in the repos
[09:18] <soundray> ikonia: <sigh>, I'll try Mac OS first :(
[09:18] <ikonia> soundray: bsd - case sensitve
[09:18] <phalcon> ikonia: i gotcha...it's just the wording that threw me off
[09:18] <ikonia> phalcon: no problem
[09:19] <Sembiance> ikonia: thanks
[09:19] <ikonia> ???
[09:19] <ikonia> I didn't do anything
[09:20] <NeoGeo64> I upgraded kernels and there are now two boot options for Linux in my GRUB.  How do I remove the old kernel and the GRUB entry?
[09:20] <soundray> jrib: I installed amide, but it can't deal with dicomdir files that reference uppercase files. (They appear as lowercase on ubuntu because of the way that ubuntu maps iso filenames)
[09:20] <ikonia> NeoGeo64: use apt-get remove to remove the old kernel image
[09:20] <soundray> Strange, Mac OS X shows the CD content with uppercase filenames
[09:21] <ikonia> soundray: thats surprising
[09:23] <jrib> soundray: hmm I think I used xmedcon, but I just converted the files to .png with it, you may want to do something else
[09:23] <NeoGeo64> soundray: If I upgraded, would the upgrade remove the old kernel image or do I need to follow your instructions to remove it manually?
[09:23] <ikonia> NeoGeo64: use apt-get remove to remove the old kernel image
[09:23] <soundray> ikonia: well, I suspected that it's not the OS as such that matters, but the iso9660 filesystem implementation.
[09:23] <ikonia> soundray: yes, thats a reasonable assumption
[09:23] <starter2> whoever sujested virtualbox
[09:23] <starter2> you rock
[09:23] <ikonia> soundray: there is an option to force complience at mount time
[09:23] <soundray> jrib: xmedcon is a good idea, I'll just bypass the dicomdir with that. Thanks.
[09:23] <soundray> ikonia: I've found norock,map=o -- doesn't make a difference
[09:23] <ikonia> shame
[09:25] <hemuli> Hi! Can somebody please tell me or post a link how to get boinc running as a screensaver in Feisty Fawn?
[09:25] <ikonia> hemuli: what part are you stuck with
[09:25] <NeoGeo64> soundray: If I upgraded, would the upgrade remove the old kernel image or do I need to follow your instructions to remove it manually?
[09:25] <ikonia> NeoGeo64: use apt-get remove to remove the old kernel image
[09:25] <soundray> NeoGeo64: I can't remember giving you any instructions, but kernel upgrades generally don't uninstall old kernels. Your new kernel will boot nevertheless, because the upgrade procedure activates it in the grub config.
[09:25] <NeoGeo64> Sorry, I'm just somewhat new to Linux.
[09:25] <ikonia> NeoGeo64: I've told you 3 times
[09:25] <hemuli> I can't put it as a screensaver
[09:25] <ikonia> NeoGeo64: and you've just repeated the same question 3 times
[09:25] <NeoGeo64> Ok, I'm sorry.
[09:25] <ikonia> hemuli: ubuntu uses xscreen-saver for screensavers
[09:25] <NeoGeo64> thank you for your help
[09:25] <hemuli> well, how can I configure it to run on backgroud?
[09:25] <ikonia> hemuli: in the background or as a background wallpaper
[09:25] <hemuli> doesn't matter, I wan't it just to run
[09:26] <ikonia> hemuli: it does matter, what do you want
[09:26] <hemuli> I wan't it to run always
[09:26] <ikonia> where and how
[09:26] <ikonia> what do you want it to do
[09:26] <hemuli> when I start computer it should start and run on backround unless i kill it
[09:27] <hemuli> please tell me!
[09:27] <ikonia> hemuli: define "run"
[09:27] <hemuli> do its tasks
[09:27] <vader1102> Okay, one question. What do I do to get Ubuntu X86-64 to install and dual boot with my vista partition?
[09:27] <djbrums> hi, is this the proper place to ask about a potential bug linking against gnu libraries on ubuntu?
[09:27] <ikonia> djbrums: ask away
[09:27] <ikonia> vader1102: put the install cd in - boot it click install
[09:27] <kj[] > hemuli, you probably don't want it to run full speed the whole time?
[09:28] <hemuli> well, maybe not, I'm not sure
[09:28] <soundray> vader1102: download the amd64 Desktop CD image. Boot from it and install. It'll setup dual boot automatically, unless you tell it otherwise. See also the private message from ubotu:
[09:28] <soundray> !dualboot > vader1102
[09:28] <hemuli> I'm just hoping it could do some calculation on background
[09:29] <ikonia> hemuli: I suggest you just launch it from the command line or put it in your .bash_profile and put a & after it to background it
[09:29] <vader1102> ty soundray
[09:29] <jpatota> isnt brezy unsupported now anyway?
[09:29] <dirtdawg> I burned an iso in my cdrw, located in /dev/hdd, but when I try to eject, I get this error: Error: mount point /tmp/disks-conf-hdd is not below /media/
[09:29] <jpatota> no more packages are avaliable right?
[09:29] <ikonia> jpatota: do you have a breezy box ?
[09:29] <Tailsfan> Hello, Is there a Way to have the Disks option like in teh Older Ubuntu
[09:29] <dirtdawg> eject: unmount of `/tmp/disks-conf-hdd' failed"
[09:29] <dirtdawg> oh damn
[09:29] <djbrums> the problem i am having is with binutils.  i have two versions of the library: the one installed by default, which lets call 'binutils-native'. I also downloaded binutils-source from ubuntu and built the .tar.bz2 file using "./configure && make", which let's call 'binutils-build'.  when i link my application against binutils-native, i get different output than when i link against binutils-build.
[09:29] <Tailsfan> the one that shows up in Admin
[09:30] <jpatota> ikonia: i do
[09:30] <ikonia> djbrums: of course you will get different results
[09:30] <hemuli> stupid question: do I launch boinc-client and not boinc-manager?
[09:30] <djbrums> um, why would i get different results? they should implement the same api
[09:30] <ikonia> jpatota: just do an apt-get update and an apt-get upgrade and see what you get
[09:30] <ikonia> djbrums: different versions, patches applied etc etc
[09:30] <ikonia> djbrums: what are you trying to do
[09:30] <ikonia> djbrums: eg: whats your goal
[09:31] <fatsheep> my GAIM window is refusing to resize horizontally (it's stuck at full screen width) any ideas?
[09:31] <linxuz3r> !video
[09:31] <ubotu> Ubuntu 7.04 installs multimedia codecs automatically.

[09:31] <djbrums> right now my app works fine when someone downloads binutils and compiles from source. always. for 2 different versions of binutils.  when i link against the native ubuntu libraries. specifically, this is libbfd.
[09:31] <djbrums> i want it to work fine when people link against the native library
[09:31] <Tailsfan> Is there a way to get System > Admin > Disks on 7.04 or is there a alternative?
[09:32] <dirtdawg> I'm trying to eject a cd from my CDRW drive and I'm getting this error: """ Error: mount point /tmp/disks-conf-hdd is not below /media/ : eject: unmount of `/tmp/disks-conf-hdd' failed """ This hasn't happened before. What gives!?
[09:32] <ikonia> djbrums: first thing to do is check the versions
[09:32] <djbrums> that is why i installed the binutils-source package and linked against it
[09:32] <ikonia> dirtdawg: thats a mount point  un mount it first
[09:32] <djbrums> but i am not sure how to apply the patches
[09:32] <ikonia> djbrums: patch is the command
[09:32] <c1|freaky> someone here using duplicity (feisty) and had problems with incremental backups? it always does full backups instead of incremental ones
[09:33] <hemuli> ikonia: thanks, I think I got it now!
[09:33] <djbrums> binutils-source installed a patches directory, and binutils...tar.bz2. i unzip/untar binutils fine. how do i apply the patches in the 'patches' directory. they look like shell scripts...not patches
[09:33] <dirtdawg> ikonia: I get a "cannot unmount, device is busy". Why is it mounting there in the first place?
[09:33] <NeoGeo64> soundray: Thank you, what you said worked
[09:33] <ikonia> djbrums: look at the scripts
[09:33] <ikonia> dirtdawg: do you have any windows open that or in or looking at that directory
[09:33] <soundray> NeoGeo64: almost always does :)
[09:34] <dirtdawg> ikonia: yes I do. I'm an idio. 1 moment
[09:34] <caesar_> is there a way I can change the text color of the Menu Bar? my task bar is already black, and it makes the text on the menu bar impossible to read
[09:35] <BlueDevil> i'm having trouble building the kernel, it always adds .3-ubuntu1 to the version and then it can't find the files in /lib/firmware/<version> please help
[09:35] <dirtdawg> ikonia: actually, I started irssi from that directory. oops. BRB
[09:35] <ikonia> BlueDevil: look in the config file for the append line
[09:35] <BlueDevil> ikonia: .config?
[09:35] <JDahl> I am trying to connect to a mobile phone via bluetooth (an S60 phone with Python).  I've seen on WinXP that people can connect to the phone via the Hyperterminal program using bluetooth;  how would I do something similar on Ubuntu?
[09:35] <ikonia> BlueDevil: or the menu with a make menuconfig or make xconfig
[09:36] <sean_> Any advice on how to make a text editor look pretty on GNOME? I want a dark theme that will lessen eye strain, and that will have well chosen pretty colors for syntax highlighting.
[09:36] <dirtdawg> Okay, the drive unmounted now. Thank you
[09:37] <ikonia> dirtdawg: well spotted
[09:37] <soundray> JDahl: a similar program is minicom. I don't know if you can emulate a serial connection over bluetooth, though.
[09:37] <soundray> !minicom
[09:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about minicom - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:37] <soundray> !info minicom

[09:37] <caesar_> !menubar
[09:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about menubar - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:37] <BlueDevil> ikonia: there's nothing like that there :(
[09:37] <caesar_> !menu-bar
[09:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about menu-bar - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:37] <ikonia> BlueDevil: there is
[09:38] <BlueDevil> ikonia: i did a grep for ubuntu1 in .config, there's only a comment at the start of the file
[09:38] <zerro> hi i have problem with the install of ubuntu ...
[09:38] <ikonia> BlueDevil: check the output of make menuconfig  - look at the options
[09:39] <Tailsfan> Yes zerro
[09:39] <caesar_> zerro: what's your problem?
[09:39] <zerro> i have 2 x 250gb hdd in raid and ubuntu install program will see both hdds and no one as a raid array
[09:39] <BornSmiling> Ah ok, I just installed Amarok.. it hung once and now won't open again??
[09:39] <ikonia> zerro: yup thats fine
[09:39] <frolle> BornSmiling: Try reinstalling it
[09:39] <BlueDevil> ikonia: it says "Ubuntu 2.6.20-16.29-generic" in arbitrary version signature
[09:40] <ikonia> zerro: you need to use the server cd to do a raid install - or NOT use fake (windows hardware) raid
[09:40] <ikonia> BlueDevil: yup and every time you build it will increment the build number
[09:41] <BlueDevil> ikonia: so how do i fix it? there's no ubuntu1 there
[09:41] <ikonia> BlueDevil: it shouldn't matter as your kernel/modules etc will always look in /lib/modules/$kernel_version
[09:41] <ikonia> BlueDevil: but the option you want is visable in make menuconfig
[09:42] <apudu> Hi everybody... I compiled and installed Qt 4.3.0 on Ububtu 7.04 today.. but the fonts in Qt4 Apps seem un-antialiased.. how can I fix this?
[09:42] <ikonia> apudu: why did you compile it and not use the version from the ubuntu repo
[09:42] <BlueDevil> ikonia: when it builds the initrd it looks for files in /lib/firmware/2.6.20.3-ubuntu1 which obviously aren't there so the build fails
[09:43] <apudu> because I compiled Qt 4.3 for my other Linux boxes..
[09:43] <ikonia> BlueDevil: so either re-make the initrd, or look in make menu config for the option I have mentioned a few times
[09:43] <ikonia> apudu: and ?
[09:43] <apudu> ikonia: thats it.. I am used to compiling from sources.. am very new to this whole apt-get stuff
[09:43] <BlueDevil> ikonia: i looked at the option and the string 'ubuntu1' is not there, so i can't remove it :(
[09:44] <ikonia> apudu: well chances are you will have broke your package manager dependency tree
[09:44] <ikonia> BlueDevil: don't look for ubuntu-1 look for the options that append to kernel builds
[09:44] <apudu> ikonia: what shall I do now?
[09:44] <BornSmiling> err how do I permanently change my nickname on here?
[09:45] <ikonia> apudu: what ever you want
[09:45] <SeriousStorm85> hi everybody....i have this problem http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2815088#post2815088

[09:45] <apudu> ikonia: :) if I want to apt-get Qt 4.3.0 what command should I use?
[09:45] <ikonia> apudu: use sypatic pakage manager and search for the latest available verison
[09:45] <ekso> whats the entry called "eth1:avah" in ifconfig??
[09:46] <BornSmiling> oh cool thanks
[09:46] <sebrock> is there a runlevel 3 in ubuntu?
[09:46] <ikonia> ekso: wireless normally
[09:46] <ikonia> sebrock: yes
[09:46] <ekso> and if i dont have wireless?
[09:46] <sebrock> ikonia, as a normal linux system?
[09:50] <ikonia> sebrock: ubuntu is normal linux
[09:50] <ikonia> ekso: then its a network card brand
[09:50] <roryy> sebrock: runlevel 3 isn't non-X mode like redhat etc
[09:50] <sahil> hey, usplash only changes the splash image when the computer starts up. Is there a way to change the boot screen?
[09:50] <ikonia> sahil: what boot screen ?
[09:50] <sebrock> roryy I know, but I can't start it...
[09:50] <tck> is anyone here LPI-Ubuntu certified?
[09:50] <roryy> sebrock: you can do something like 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop' to kill X; 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start' to restart it
[09:50] <ikonia> sebrock: what are you doing to start it
[09:50] <ikonia> tck: I am LPI
[09:50] <apudu> ikonia: ok thanks.. got it
[09:50] <tck> ikonia, how did you find it, im studying for 101 & 102 at the moment
[09:50] <ikonia> tck: easy
[09:50] <sebrock> I want to run it as a server, in runlevel 3
[09:50] <SeriousStorm85> getting error 2  when installing "make"
[09:50] <tck> ok
[09:50] <tck> will you go for the Ubuntu 199 test?
[09:50] <sahil> ikonia, when Ubuntu starts up after you choose it from the list of the operating systems. It says Ubuntu with the logo and there is an orange bar at the bottom
[09:50] <ikonia> sebrock: run level 3 doesn't mean a server
[09:50] <ikonia> sahil: yup
[09:50] <ikonia> tck: probably no
[09:50] <tck> oh ok
[09:50] <ikonia> SeriousStorm85: that means nothing
[09:50] <sebrock> ikonia, I know but it starts without a GUI
[09:50] <ekso> ikonia: er.... what if i have eth1 and eth1:avah?
[09:50] <ikonia> sebrock: no it won't
[09:50] <sebrock> so how do I set runlevel 3 to be default
[09:50] <sahil> ikonia, you know how i can change that screen and the screen where i choose the operating system
[09:50] <ikonia> sebrock: you need to disable gdm from run level 2
[09:50] <sebrock> ikonia, on a normal linux system it would
[09:50] <sebrock> thats the thing, ubuntu has these strange runlevels
[09:50] <ikonia> sahil: yes, thats a grub splash image
[09:50] <ekso> (eht0 and eth1 are ethernet ports on the motherboard, from the nvidia controller)  but i have no idea what eth1:avah is
[09:50] <ikonia> sebrock: not nessary - run levels are defined on an OS basis
[09:50] <jrib> sebrock: it's the same in debian...
[09:50] <sahil> ikonia, you know how to change it?
[09:50] <binary> does any body know where i can find drivers for onboard mirage 128mb on a pc chips a31g
[09:50] <ikonia> sahil: download a grub image and put it in the grub dir and add the splashimage line to grub
[09:50] <sebrock> ok, so how do I start it with a terminal prompt only?????
[09:50] <graft> sahil: there's a bitmap defined in your grub config file, you have to change that
[09:50] <ikonia> sebrock: I've told you disable gdm in run level 2
[09:50] <jrib> sebrock: system -> administration -> services, disable graphical login
[09:50] <tck> is it just me or has isapnptools suite been take out of the mirrors?
[09:50] <sahil> ikonia, and how do i change the place where i select my OS
[09:50] <sebrock> ikonia how do that?
[09:50] <ikonia> sahil: good up on grub
[09:50] <ikonia> sebrock: jrib just told you
[09:51] <ikonia> sebrock: or the same as any other linue
[09:51] <ikonia> sebrock: remove the init script
[09:51] <sebrock> ikonia which one
[09:51] <SeriousStorm85> ikonia:- this is to do with usbvision....i can't create "make"
[09:51] <JDahl> my mobile can see my computer. but when I try to pair devices the mobile phone is prompted for a passcode,  but I don't know where to configure or find the password on the PC
[09:51] <ikonia> sebrock: gome on !
[09:51] <ikonia> come on
[09:51] <Paradoxx> How do I execute a .bin file?
[09:51] <ikonia> SeriousStorm85: you don't "create " make
[09:51] <ikonia> Paradoxx: ./$file
[09:52] <SeriousStorm85> ikonia:- i have put da usbvision in my home directory.....i then cd to usbvision/src then said sudo make
[09:52] <soundray> JDahl: 1234 (/etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf)
[09:52] <ikonia> SeriousStorm85: your either missing headers or more likley its not compatible with your current header version
[09:53] <Paradoxx> ikonia, that isn't working
[09:53] <JDahl> soundray, thanks!
[09:53] <ikonia> Paradoxx: what does it say
[09:53] <linxuz3r> ok guys

[09:53] <linxuz3r> vmware on ubuntu
[09:54] <ekso> when i try firestarter internet connection sharing on eth1 it says its not ready
[09:54] <ikonia> SeriousStorm85: you have 2.6.20-16 headers
[09:54] <ikonia> ekso: is eth1 setup ?
[09:54] <Gerro> seriousstorm85: do uname -a to see which you need
[09:54] <omegacenti> I am having problems with the Form wizard in Open Office.org
[09:54] <Paradoxx> ikonia, Permission denied
[09:54] <tri> hi
[09:54] <ikonia> Gerro: that doesn't show you the headers
[09:54] <ekso> ikonia: sorry, what do you mean?
[09:54] <tri> are here any ebuntu guys ?
[09:54] <ikonia> Paradoxx: ls -la the file and see if you have permissions
[09:54] <Gerro> ikonia: you need headers that match your running kernel
[09:54] <ikonia> Gerro: no you don't
[09:55] <ekso> eth1 is connected to a laptop running winxp
[09:55] <ikonia> ekso: does it have an IP - is it using a cross-over cable
[09:55] <Gerro> ikonia: uh huh uh huh :P
[09:55] <djbrums> how do i find out how ubuntu build a package (e.g., what configure options were used)?   in particular, binutils-dev
[09:55] <ikonia> Gerro:  no you don't need matchign headers
[09:55] <SeriousStorm85> ikonia:- Package linux-kernel-headers is a virtual package provided by:
[09:55] <SeriousStorm85>   linux-libc-dev 2.6.20-16.29
[09:55] <SeriousStorm85> ikonia:- You should explicitly select one to install.
[09:55] <SeriousStorm85> E: Package linux-kernel-headers has no installation candidate
[09:55] <ikonia> SeriousStorm85: I told you the header version you where using
[09:56] <soundray> djbrums: 'apt-get source packagename', then examine the files that are downloaded.
[09:56] <MrGreen> How to get rid of sounds in Gnome its very Windowish yuk!
[09:56] <ikonia> soundray: that won't give you the config options
[09:56] <omegacenti> When I click Finish in Form wizard of Open Office Database it does nothing. I need help.
[09:56] <ikonia> soundray: my mistake - apologies
[09:56] <ekso> ikonia: mmmmm...... the laptop connected to eth1 is setup to get an ip automatically  (I was trying to run dhcp3-server here, but it fails to start...)
[09:56] <ikonia> soundray: re-read
[09:56] <ekso> i should set up the ip on the laptop then?
[09:56] <ekso> *manually that is
[09:56] <Gerro> seriousstorm85: apt-get linux-headers-2.6.20-16
[09:57] <eve> holas
[09:57] <Gerro> seriousstorm85: I mean apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.20-16
[09:57] <ikonia> ekso: depends if you are using the dhcp server  its up to you
[09:57] <eve> alguiem habla ingles
[09:57] <eve> espaol perdon
[09:57] <ikonia> Gerro: he already has it installed

[09:57] <Gerro> ikonia: then what wrong with it?
[09:58] <ikonia> Gerro: the versions he's using against have some incompatible functions
[09:58] <ekso> ikonia: do you know where dhcp3-server store its logs?
[09:58] <ikonia> ekso: the syslog
[09:58] <MrGreen> *bump
[09:58] <Gerro> seriousstorm85: I also have the -generic ones
[09:58] <ikonia> Gerro: he's using generic
[09:58] <ikonia> 2.6.2-16
[09:58] <djbrums> ikonia: apt-get source gets me the source, but i don't see where it specifies how "configure" was run.
[09:58] <ikonia> 2.6.20-16
[09:58] <SeriousStorm85> Gerro:- so where does Error 1 and 2 come from? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2815088#post2815088
[09:58] <ikonia> djbrums: look in the package

[10:01] <jrib> djbrums: (you should have a directory too which you didn't list called binutils-morestuff)
[10:02] <ikonia> djbrums: have you done the basics and checked the version shipped with ubuntu against the version your trying to build ?
[10:02] <omegacenti> When I click Finish in Form wizard of Open Office Database it does nothing. I need help.  I just marked all of openoffice for complete removal and I am going to try and install again
[10:02] <WorldDomination> I urgently need a program with which I can mount .nrg images as a DVD drive under ubuntu
[10:02] <ikonia> WorldDomination: nero
[10:03] <WorldDomination> under ubuntu ?
[10:03] <ikonia> yup
[10:03] <WorldDomination> well but nero isnt free
[10:03] <ikonia> nope
[10:03] <ikonia> but its a nero image
[10:03] <cached> you could try http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-convert-a-nrg-nero-file-to-a-iso-file-in-ubuntu.html
[10:04] <cached> convert it to an is
[10:04] <phalcon> WorldDomination: sudo apt-get install nrg2iso
[10:04] <cached> *iso
[10:04] <cached> :<
[10:04] <WorldDomination> ok and with what can I mount an iso as a drive under ubuntu ?
[10:05] <phalcon> WorldDomination: nope, but you can mount the iso file that it creates

[10:06] <NeoGeo64> But I have SDL 1.2
[10:06] <ikonia> NeoGeo64: zsnes is in the ubuntu repo
[10:06] <jrib> NeoGeo64: please don't paste here.  zsnes is packaged, why are you compiling it?
[10:06] <NeoGeo64> because the packaged version doesnt run as good
[10:06] <jrib> ikonia: you're too fast today
[10:06] <ikonia> jrib: nice to beat you for once
[10:06] <ZeroA4> NeoGeo64, ZSNES is in the repositories. Why compile?
[10:06] <macd> why compile when you can apt.
[10:06] <ikonia> NeoGeo64: yes it does
[10:06] <NeoGeo64> ok.. ill try using toe repo..
[10:06] <NeoGeo64> the*
[10:06] <tyler_d> looking for a plugin that makes GIMP easier to use....
[10:06] <WorldDomination> how can I mount that .iso ?
[10:07] <jrib> !iso > WorldDomination (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:07] <cached> !iso > cached

[10:07] <hamb> is there a way to install winxp after installing ubuntu? all guides i've read say install windows first, but its kinda late for that
[10:07] <ikonia> hamb: yes, no problem. You just have to re-install grub after it
[10:08] <WorldDomination> oh thanks
[10:08] <tyler_d> hamb: you will have to re-configure it
[10:08] <macd> hamb, its covered very thourughly on the ubuntu wiki.
[10:08] <tyler_d> hamb: make linux ubuntu run on the secondary ide or as a slave on primary
[10:08] <tyler_d> hamb: make the windows drive primary
[10:08] <tyler_d> hamb: install windows...
[10:09] <hamb> i will have ubuntu and windows on 2 separate drives (split my raid 0 back to 2 drives)
[10:09] <hamb> thanks for the help
[10:09] <tyler_d> hamb: if your lucky at this point your bios will have the option to let you specify what device to boot off of, ie. primary slave, primary master, secondary master, secondary slave.... then  you have lucked out and just need to specify boot off of linux ubuntu, secondary slave or primary slave, where you put it
[10:10] <tyler_d> hamb: and the same for sata....
[10:10] <cached> SEE YOU ALL LATER THIS IS HOW I SAY GOODBYE
[10:10] <hamb> yeah, my bios has a boot priority list
[10:10] <phalcon> ikonia: what browswer would you reccomend using over and ssh connection?  not lynx or anything CLI.  i'm forwarding X to my work desktop from my home computer
[10:10] <ikonia> firegox
[10:10] <ikonia> firefox
[10:10] <tyler_d> hamb: you may need at this point to re-configure lilo, but that should be relatively easy
[10:10] <phalcon> ikonia:  want to be able to visit ebay, etc.
[10:10] <tyler_d> hamb: now go break it
[10:11] <ikonia> tyler_d: ubuntu uses grub
[10:11] <tyler_d> ikonia: sory
[10:11] <swhalen> Hello
[10:11] <phalcon> ikonia: it goes too slow.  my net connection only u/ls at 1.5 Mb/s.  was hoping there was something lightweight that still handled graphics and whatnot
[10:11] <swhalen> can someone help me with ATI and compiz
[10:11] <Makegho> Does anyone else have problems with ugrading console-setup?
[10:12] <phalcon> ikonia: konqueror is slightly better, but still pretty sluggish
[10:12] <tyler_d> swhalen: lol... hello
[10:12] <ikonia> phalcon: just live with it,
[10:12] <tyler_d> no answer for me :( a plugin for GIMP that makes it a little easier to use... ??
[10:12] <ikonia> tyler_d: no such thing
[10:13] <ikonia> tyler_d: buy a book
[10:13] <linxuz3r>  the gstreamer plugins is a nice update
[10:13] <tck> grr since hoary, isapnptools was taken off mirrors but why?
[10:13] <tyler_d> ikonia: wow thanks... there is such a thing btw, I will let you know after digging...
[10:13] <Oversky> hi
[10:13] <crimsun> tck: deprecated.  udev should handle isa devices, if not, kernel and/or udev bug.
[10:14] <Oversky> i have a problem network manager doesn't recognize my eth interface (festy/amd64) but if i configure manually works fine
[10:14] <tck> crimsun, well i needed it for isapnp , pnpdump etc..
[10:14] <alti> fhfhfhjg
[10:15] <phalcon> ikonia: i would if it were livable.  > 3 minutes for google.com to come up, though, isn't very livable.
[10:15] <ikonia> phalcon: x over the internet is slow
[10:15] <ikonia> nothing can be done about that
[10:16] <magnetron> ikonia: if you run it through ssh, you can compress it
[10:16] <crimsun> tck: you shouldn't.  That's precisely the bug situation I described.
[10:16] <ikonia> magnetron: that is true, still slow over a 1 mb connection, nothing can be really done on that
[10:16] <tck> crimsun, its on the LPI test, i have to study it :P
[10:16] <phalcon> ikonia: when i tried it with an up link of 2.5 Mb/s it was pdg, with konqueror anyway.  just hoped there was a browser around that was specifically for that application, just couldn't find one.
[10:16] <EADG> phalcon: try links2 with the -g option to make it graphical and use a mouse... might be faster than FF.
[10:17] <BlueDevil> you can use freenx for remote access
[10:17] <magnetron> ikonia: except the compression. still slow though
[10:17] <phalcon> ikonia: also of note, pidgin works just as fast over the net as it does locally
[10:17] <ikonia> magnetron: %100 agree
[10:17] <crimsun> tck: get that exam changed.
[10:17] <WorldDomination> ok what can I use as a mount point for the iso ?
[10:17] <tck> the LPI-Ubuntu cert? ok :P
[10:17] <crimsun> tck: yes, explain the situation.
[10:17] <EADG> WorldDomination: anything you want... /media/iso1 for ex.
[10:18] <ikonia> phalcon: its a lighter app - less to do
[10:18] <ikonia> WorldDomination: what ever you want
[10:18] <magnetron> WorldDomination: make a new folder in /mnt
[10:18] <phalcon> WorldDomination: sudo mount -t iso9660 -o loop filename.iso /media/-dir-
[10:18] <phalcon> ikonia:  i'll give links2 a try. many thanks.
[10:21] <Vladimir_> Does someone know here i can find a pager called visibility. googles gives a lot back but not the software project.
[10:21] <ikonia>  this is ubuntu support
[10:21] <ikonia> not google support
[10:21] <phalcon> ikonia:  works like a charm.  thanks, again.
[10:21] <ikonia> phalcon: well done
[10:22] <Tehk> In beryl When I resize a window from anyside it increases the size of the window from the bottom corner. For example when I pull the top left corner - the window stays in place but increases in size from the bottom right. Anyone know what the cause might be and how to fix it?
[10:22] <Skrot-> Hi, which package contains OpenGL man pages (for entries such as glClear, glColor etc)
[10:22] <Vladimir_> ikonia: i am asking because i want to install it on ubuntu.
[10:22] <Vladimir_> ikonia: and just wanted to prevent people from telling me to search for it with google.
[10:22] <wepeel> hi all. I know this seems trivial, but neither of the screensaver applications on either of my computers is workin. Just get a blank screen. What gives?
[10:22] <ikonia> Vladimir_: so, google is nothing to do with ubuntu - neither is software outside the repo
[10:22] <ekso> !bootp
[10:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bootp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:22] <Vladimir_> ikonia: anyway. forget it.
[10:23] <unperson> Hi, I'm trying to unravel a bit of a mystery.  I'm running and FTP server (non-anonymous), and I can connnect to it with the linux command line ftp client as well as with the Opera web browser, but when I try to connect with Firefox I get "425 failed to estalish a connection."  Any idea what Firefox may be doing differently from the others?
[10:23] <unperson> I'm connecting with the following syntax in the address bar: ftp://username:password@server.org:portnum
[10:23] <sebrock> ikonia, sure however telinit 3 won't work right?
[10:23] <omegacenti> Alright I am having a major problem with Open Office 2.2 Database. When using the form wizard, I can't "finish" it at the end. When I click finish, it does nothing. I need help!
[10:23] <linxuz3r> hmmm
[10:23] <ikonia> sebrock: what ??
[10:23] <linxuz3r> why is this happening
[10:23] <ikonia> sebrock: why are you changing run levels
[10:24] <linxuz3r> my application closes all of a sudden
[10:24] <ikonia> sebrock: disable the gdm startup script
[10:24] <sebrock> will it stay disabled?
[10:24] <ikonia> sebrock: if you disable it - yes
[10:24] <alsa> this may sound a silly question...
[10:24] <sebrock> even after reboots?
[10:24] <ikonia> sebrock: if you disable the SCRIPT yes
[10:25] <linxuz3r> guys
[10:25] <rustalot> how do you disable the script?
[10:25] <linxuz3r> someone tell me why my application closes by itself?
[10:25] <ikonia> rustalot: use the gnome tools, remove or rename the script
[10:25] <sebrock> ikonia I apologize, history is gone, no logs, how do I do this?
[10:25] <greyfrog> linxuz3r, probably an error?
[10:25] <ikonia> sebrock: you've been told 3 times and clearly didn't listen
[10:25] <ikonia> I told you and jrib told you
[10:25] <linxuz3r> ok
[10:25] <magnetron> linxuz3r: someone tell me what application that is?
[10:25] <ikonia> and your still not listening and trying to change run levels
[10:26] <alsa> I am having problems configuring a wireless router and I need to unplug my ethernet connection from router to laptop to gain access to internet.
[10:26] <Peter123456> hello
[10:26] <linxuz3r> magnetron, it is firefox
[10:26] <ekso> can anyone help me with this? the error that dhcp3-server gives when it fails to start: http://pastebin.ca/564986
[10:26] <linxuz3r> i did not closed it mysel
[10:26] <linxuz3r> i did not closed it myself
[10:26] <EADG> unperson: try ftp://user:pass@server/path
[10:26] <alsa> Will I do damage to my laptop if I unplug ethernet cable while laptop is turned on?
[10:26] <ikonia> linxuz3r: what closed itself
[10:26] <Peter123456> I have one simple question
[10:26] <ekso> i already checked /etc/inetd.conf and it's empty
[10:26] <aricz> how do I run a .deb from console?
[10:26] <magnetron> linxuz3r: what did you do when it was crashing?
[10:26] <sebrock> ikonia, I apologized, was on phone. Now could you please be kind and repeat it and I will not bother you any more
[10:26] <ikonia> alsa: no
[10:26] <phalcon> alsa: no, it won't hurt it
[10:26] <ikonia> sebrock: sorry no
[10:26] <magnetron> alsa: no
[10:26] <astomper> I'm having trouble playing a dvd, when I try to fast forward it freezes.  I'm using Totem, does anyone know a plugin or any other programs that I should use?
[10:27] <ekso> also not running any hp software...
[10:27] <Elessar> astomper: try vlc
[10:27] <unperson> EADG, Ok.  But presumably I also need the portnum in there too.
[10:27] <ekso> i just need to run dhcp3-server on eth1...... :(
[10:27] <phalcon> astomper: try vlc or mplayer
[10:27] <ikonia> ekso: a dhcp server is already running
[10:27] <alsa> cheers, remember that unplugging ps2 mouses caused damage so had to be sure
[10:27] <astomper> Elessar, phalcon: I'll give those a shot
[10:27] <ekso> mmmm
[10:28] <alsa> thanks for answering question
[10:28] <alsa> bye
[10:28] <EADG> unperson: yes, you would... not sure where though, before or after path...?
[10:29] <Aubre> hi - I want to get started contributing to the ubuntu/linux coding effort - would it be best to learn python or C?
[10:29] <unperson> EADG, I think before.
[10:29] <Peter123456> If you download the Ubuntu 6.06 and you install it...if I want to have the 7.4 version I have to reinstall Ubuntu or I can updated from Ubuntu-..
[10:29] <ikonia> Aubre: depends where you want to contribute
[10:29] <Peter123456> ??
[10:29] <unperson> EADG, At least, I think that's how it works for HTTP
[10:29] <ekso> ikonia: i have dhcdbd, dhclient3 and dnsmasq. one of this is also a dhcp server?
[10:29] <Aubre> well I'm not really sure yet
[10:29] <sebrock> awww man
[10:29] <zaggynl> Pete_69, updating is possible, yet tends to break almost always
[10:29] <ikonia> ekso: never head ot dhcdbd so don't know
[10:29] <zaggynl> reinstalling is the safest way to go
[10:29] <EADG> unperson: lemme know what works and I'll apend my notes... my site uses default 21.
[10:29] <ekso> ikonia: the others are not?
[10:29] <Peter123456> but you loose files??
[10:29] <ikonia> ekso: no
[10:29] <Peter123456> you can keep themm
[10:29] <Peter123456> ?
[10:29] <linxuz3r> astomper, tell me too please
[10:29] <ekso> ikonia: its not a dhcp server also... :(   http://packages.debian.org/unstable/admin/dhcdbd
[10:29] <zaggynl> Peter123456, sure
[10:30] <ikonia> ekso: well something is listening on that address
[10:30] <Peter123456> so the best is to download the 7.04 and reinstall my old 6.06 version
[10:30] <Peter123456> ..
[10:30] <ekso> ikonia: is there any way to find that out?
[10:30] <ikonia> Peter123456: why would you download 70.4 and install 6.06
[10:31] <Peter123456> no sory
[10:31] <ekso> *find out what is listening on that address
[10:31] <ikonia> ekso: ps -ef
[10:31] <Peter123456> ajja
[10:31] <ikonia> ekso: netstat -a | grep LIST
[10:31] <Peter123456> I mean to install 7.04
[10:31] <ikonia> Peter123456: sounds reasonable
[10:31] <Peter123456> well thanks to all
[10:31] <v3n0m> anyone know how to associate like "asdfa://123.23.23.23" to a program when typed in firefox
[10:31] <unperson> EADG, It appears it's correct to put the port before the path.
[10:31] <ikonia> v3n0m: you can't do that - its protocol assosciation
[10:32] <unperson> EADG, I think it's connecting on the command port but not able to make the data connection.
[10:32] <v3n0m> ikonia: I know, but I've seen several applications that make use of that feature
[10:32] <ikonia> v3n0m: so you have to make the application protocol aware
[10:32] <ikonia> and then make firefox aware of that application for that protocol
[10:32] <EADG> hmm, that port is forwarded to your ftp box?
[10:33] <v3n0m> ikonia: the application is protocol aware, I need to do the firefox part
[10:33] <omegacenti> Problem : /usr/share/mime/packages/x-java-archive.xml seems like I don't have this. It also seems like I might not have Java runtime environment. I searched for "java" in synaptics manager to see if I could get something like a java runtime environment and I can't find it. HELP!
[10:33] <unperson> EADG, Because if I try to login with the username ftp it tells me anonymous is disallowed (true).  Also, I looked at the ftp server logs and it seems to show "login ok" and then "fail download".
[10:33] <ikonia> v3n0m: actually I guess its the desktop rather than firefox, firefox will just make an api call to the destkop (I asume)
[10:34] <aricz> Argh.. what's the name of the zsnes-package?
[10:34] <linxuz3r> $ sudo -ibash: COMP_WORDS: bad array subscript
[10:34] <Peter123456> sory one thing more...is a dvd version for 7.04??
[10:34] <linxuz3r> what is this problem?
[10:34] <unperson> EADG, Well, I set the ftp server (vsftp) to use a certain set of ports for data connections and I forwarded those.  I assume that worked right, since the CLI ftp client and Opera can connect.
[10:34] <ikonia> Peter123456: they are all cd
[10:34] <phalcon> aricz: do you have extra repos in your /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[10:35] <Peter123456> but the 6.06 i have it on dvd
[10:35] <ikonia> linxuz3r: the command is "sudo -i"
[10:35] <EADG> unperson: possible to try a diffrent account... say temp1:password@site?
[10:35] <aricz> phalcon : I've uncommented all urls in sources.list
[10:35] <ikonia> Peter123456: 7.04 is cd
[10:35] <Peter123456> perfect
[10:35] <linxuz3r> ikonia, why is it saying bash: COMP_WORDS: bad array subscript
[10:35] <Peter123456> thanks ikonia
[10:35] <ikonia> linxuz3r: the command is "sudo -i"
[10:35] <linxuz3r> is there something wrong with sudo?
[10:35] <unperson> EADG, It could be possible.  What are you thinking that might do?
[10:35] <ikonia> linxuz3r: the command is "sudo -i"
[10:36] <ikonia> linxuz3r: listen to what I'm saying
[10:36] <ikonia> linxuz3r: the command is "sudo -i"
[10:36] <unperson> EADG, Right now only one account can login, which is basically a dummy account.
[10:36] <dhgwill> i'm fairly familiar with running gui programs on another computer by way of ssh -Y (is that even the best way?) but i'm wondering if anyone has any advice about opening a gui that's already running on another computer... (ktorrent is the program in question)
[10:36] <tck> is one better off using insmod or modprobe, both do exactly the same thing right?
[10:36] <EADG> unperson: if I read it right you are using ftp as the login name?
[10:36] <unperson> EADG, So it's basically like anonymous ftp but with some minimal authentication.
[10:36] <debaserdz> hola!
[10:36] <ikonia> dhgwill: you can't move X around like tha t- it has to be launched
[10:36] <ackdesha> does anyone know of a zip/unzip set of cmd line apps that would be compatible with archives created using newer versions of pkware's pkzip?  I get a "need PK compat. v5.1" failure with the free unzip 5.52.
[10:36] <omegacenti> Problem : /usr/share/mime/packages/x-java-archive.xml seems like I don't have this. It also seems like I might not have Java runtime environment. I searched for "java" in synaptics manager to see if I could get something like a java runtime environment and I can't find it. HELP!
[10:37] <dhgwill> ikonia: i thought that might be the case
[10:37] <debaserdz> hello world!
[10:37] <unperson> EADG, No.  I am using a different usename as the login name.  I was just saying that if I instead try to login with the username ftp (as one would for anon) I get a message saying anonymous ftp access is disabled.
[10:37] <EADG> unperson: Sorry, that tangent is a dead end, I just tried it...
[10:37] <Elessar> Hello debaserdz
[10:37] <dhgwill> ikonia: vnc is a pain, is there anything better than that?
[10:37] <bunga> ackdesha: try the java   jar  command see if it would unzipp it for you
[10:37] <debaserdz> hello Elessar
[10:37] <Peter123456> ajaj this is the last one...ikonia. Is LILO the best boot loader? if not what should I use,,thanks for helping
[10:37] <ikonia> dhgwill: x desktop to x desktop seems good
[10:38] <ikonia> Peter123456: ubuntu comes with grub
[10:38] <Peter123456> perfect again
[10:38] <linxuz3r> Peter123456,  use grub
[10:38] <Elessar> ubuntu 7.04 comes with Upstart
[10:38] <unperson> EADG, Any idea whether firefox connects with a PORT or PASV type connection?
[10:38] <etronik> Hi all, I need to setup internet file sharing with access control i.e. given user only accesses a defined directory tree, what r the best recommended tools for the Job? webdav or SFTP or others ?
[10:38] <SudoBash> hey how hard is it to attain a linux certification?
[10:38] <Peter123456> well thanks.
[10:39] <ikonia> etronik: how do you want to share
[10:39] <bolloxmcgee> how do i get write permission to theusr/lib/mozilla/plugins directory in ubuntu feisty fawn 7.04?
[10:39] <dhgwill> ikonia: i'm actually a bit confused about how to do that... i bet there are prob. some good howtos
[10:39] <ikonia> SudoBash: depends which certification you take
[10:39] <psst> SudoBash: trivial - send me $50
[10:39] <EADG> unperson: That would be a question best put to the FireFox guys... no idea.
[10:39] <ikonia> dhgwill: you run a local xserver - and just set the remote display to your local desktop
[10:39] <dhgwill> ikonia: but i'm still concerned about the torrents
[10:39] <SudoBash> lol
[10:39] <etronik> ikonia: how do I want to share ??
[10:39] <dhgwill> ikonia: with ssh or something, huh
[10:39] <ikonia> dhgwill: spot on
[10:40] <ikonia> etronik: yes, in a web browser, over a file transfer connection etc etc ?
[10:40] <bolloxmcgee> how do i get write permission to theusr/lib/mozilla/plugins directory in ubuntu feisty fawn 7.04?
[10:40] <dhgwill> ikonia: alright, i'll read up on that. sounds like the best way.
[10:40] <etronik> ikonia: I would like integration with Windows explorer like Netdrive
[10:40] <ikonia> bolloxmcgee: chmod
[10:40] <dhgwill> ikonia: (any links at hand? i'm good at google, but sometimes i'm not sure what to search for :))
[10:40] <unperson> EADG, Agreed.  I've friend the firefox channel, but so far no luck.
[10:40] <ikonia> etronik: so you want either an ftp site or a samba share
[10:40] <bolloxmcgee> ikonia, i'm using the GUI as well
[10:40] <ikonia> bolloxmcgee: so ?
[10:40] <bolloxmcgee> that work still?
[10:41] <ikonia> yup
[10:41] <etronik> ikonia:  samba share over the internet ? recommended ??
[10:41] <ubuntuEdgy> can any one tell me why  i get no out put when i type,  top | head | grep "gdm"
[10:41] <bolloxmcgee> cool
[10:41] <eric> How do I change the auto-boot to Windows XP in Grub?
[10:41] <unperson> EADG, I'm thinking that perhaps firefox uses PASV by default and tries to make the data connection on another port that is not forwarded.
[10:41] <ikonia> etronik: if you want to intergrate it with windows explorere - its an option
[10:41] <ikonia> ubuntuEdgy: you can't pipe top
[10:41] <linxuz3r> how do i use su instead of sudo?
[10:41] <ikonia> linxuz3r: if you have to ask - you shouldn't be doing
[10:41] <ubuntuEdgy> ikonia thanks for your wisdom
[10:41] <etronik> ikonia:  samba share over the internet ? how ?
[10:41] <abcba> linxuz3r: su makes you root
[10:41] <ekso> ikonia: eth1:avah is probably something created by Avahi, which according to synaptic is: Avahi IPv4LL network address configuration daemon
[10:42] <ikonia> eric the default boot optioni n /boot/grub/menu.lst
[10:42] <ekso> but i have no idea what that is and what is it for
[10:42] <bolloxmcgee> ahhhhh chmod aint workin, what parameters should i use?
[10:42] <jrib> linxuz3r: to do what?
[10:42] <linxuz3r> sudo does not make me root?
[10:42] <ikonia> etronik: setup samba over the internet
[10:42] <bunga> abcba not! su does not make you root
[10:42] <etronik> ikonia:  samba share over the internet ? and is it more or less safe decurity-wise ?
[10:42] <ikonia> linxuz3r: yes it does
[10:42] <EADG> unperson: I'm out of ideas :/
[10:42] <abcba> if you can bunga
[10:42] <unperson> EADG, The CLI ftp client worked ok in passive mode, though.  I don't know if there's a way for the server to "suggest" a port for the passive-mode data connection and maybe firefox is just ignoring it.
[10:42] <ikonia> linxuz3r: as I told you 4 times "sudo -i"
[10:42] <linxuz3r> what about sudo -s -H
[10:42] <unperson> EADG, If so, I'm just SOL>
[10:42] <bunga> abcba wrong info youre passing
[10:42] <ikonia> linxuz3r: if you want help - start listening
[10:42] <linxuz3r> im listening
[10:42] <alecjw> hi. is there anyway of getting grub to boot from a loopmounted virtual ext3 fs on a fat32 partition wuth 2048kb sectors?
[10:43] <eric> ikonia: I am in the menu.lst file, but I do not know which line to edit
[10:43] <v3n0m> ikonia: so? I guess I'll use that firefox advanced settings menu
[10:43] <ikonia> linxuz3r: whats the command I've given you 4 times
[10:43] <alecjw> *with
[10:43] <ikonia> eric defaultoption
[10:43] <EADG> Does vsftpd have a # or a forum? I'm sure your not the only person to run across this prob.
[10:43] <omegacenti> !java
[10:43] <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
[10:43] <ikonia> alecjw: when grub boots - no file systems are mounted
[10:43] <ikonia> eadg yup both
[10:43] <bolloxmcgee> ikonia, what exact command should i use to gimme write permissions to the directory?
[10:43] <eric> ikonia: do I remove the savedefault line from Ubuntu and add it to XP?
[10:43] <ikonia> bolloxmcgee: man chmod
[10:44] <ikonia> eric up to you
[10:44] <linxuz3r> ikonia,  but sudo gives me this sudo -ibash: COMP_WORDS: bad array subscript
[10:44] <ikonia> linxuz3r: what command did you type
[10:44] <eric> ikonia does that fix it, or is there something else I need to do?  What is savedefault?
[10:44] <tck> is modprobe just an advanced version of insmod and rmmod?
[10:44] <alecjw> ikonia, i know, but can it loopmount it itself or is grub not clever enough for that?
[10:44] <lenny64600> hi all
[10:44] <ikonia> ericthat will change it
[10:44] <eric> okay, thanks
[10:44] <ikonia> alecjw: grub isn't aware of file systems and has no "mount" command
[10:44] <balu_> abend
[10:45] <ubuntuEdgy> im trying to make a scrip so that a server , checks if a specific computer is turned on, if not the server can shutdown.
[10:45] <unperson> EADG, vsftp actually has a channel here.  I'm sure they have a mailinglist.  It's not unlikely that they have a forum.
[10:45] <alecjw> ikonia, but it mounts your filesystem when it boots the kernel, even if only temporarily
[10:45] <unperson> EADG, But I think it's probably not an issue with the server software itself.
[10:45] <linxuz3r> ikonia,  but sudo gives me this sudo -ibash: COMP_WORDS: bad array subscript
[10:45] <ikonia> ubuntuEdgy: just ping the computer - if it doesn't repond shut down
[10:45] <ikonia> alecjw: but thats too late
[10:45] <linxuz3r> ikonia, sudo -i<tab>
[10:45] <ikonia> linxuz3r: last chance beore you on ignore
[10:45] <ubuntuEdgy> thats the thing dose it respond
[10:45] <SudoBash> so if i wanted to support ubuntu for dell... which certification would be best?
[10:45] <unperson> EADG, Or that's my guess anyway.  I think it's something to do with firefox and port forwarding.
[10:46] <linxuz3r> that one
[10:46] <ikonia> ubuntuEdgy: so its not turned off
[10:46] <ubuntuEdgy> im going to  find out
[10:46] <ubuntuEdgy> ok
[10:46] <eyemean> hi any1 else having problems with aMSN in ubuntu 7.04?
[10:46] <ikonia> linxuz3r: why "tab" did I tell you to do tab ?
[10:46] <alecjw> ikonia, so in other words, i cant loopmount the root fs of a system?
[10:46] <unperson> EADG, In any case, I can try to test that tonight be temporarly putting the server in the DMZ, I guess.
[10:46] <SudoBash> so if i wanted to support ubuntu for dell... which certification would be best?
[10:46] <ikonia> alecjw: you can - just not at grub boot time
[10:46] <imachine1> hi
[10:46] <ikonia> SudoBash: dell are not interested in support
[10:46] <linxuz3r> ikonia, why is it giving me that error bash: COMP_WORDS: bad array subscript?
[10:46] <unperson> EADG, Thanks for lending an ear.

[10:47] <EADG> unperson: only other thing I can suggest is either have our users connect with a ftp client or move the port to 21.
[10:47] <ikonia> linxuz3r: I don't want to talk to you any more - you don't listen. I asked you why you where doing tab - start answering the questions and stop repeating random questions
[10:47] <imachine1> anyone had any errors with grub recently ??
[10:47] <linxuz3r> that might let someone do chroot
[10:47] <ubuntuEdgy> ping | head | grep  ??
[10:47] <imachine1> my father's installed ubuntu 7.04
[10:47] <imachine1> and grub fails on his machine
[10:47] <linxuz3r> i dont know i just hit tab
[10:47] <ikonia> linxuz3r: "listen" "Why did you use sudo -i <tab>"
[10:47] <imachine1> error 2 or so
[10:47] <ekso> anyone know what this Avahi is?
[10:47] <ikonia> linxuz3r: then DON'T
[10:47] <imachine1> what should he do
[10:47] <ikonia> linxuz3r: type the command I told you
[10:47] <alecjw> ikonia, so haw do i do it (vaguely)? make a mini linux on te real partition which loopmounts and boots using kexec?
[10:48] <ikonia> ubuntuEdgy: that won't work
[10:48] <linxuz3r> something is wrong with my sudo
[10:48] <abcba> imachine1: did you get any errors?
[10:48] <unperson> EADG, Well, it seems that the command connection is probably ok, since the log says "login ok".  I'm guessing it's the data connection that's screwy.
[10:48] <bolloxmcgee> someone please help whenever i use chmod all i get is missing operand....what the hell does that mean?
[10:48] <ikonia> linxuz3r: type the command I told you - there is something wrong with YOU
[10:48] <unperson> EADG, Which, of course, isn't on port 21 to begin with.
[10:48] <imachine1> abcba, yes, error 2 or so
[10:48] <ikonia> bolloxmcgee: man chmod
[10:48] <bolloxmcgee> i  read it i dont understand it!
[10:48] <bolloxmcgee> ;p;
[10:48] <bolloxmcgee> lol
[10:48] <ikonia> alecjw:  thats reasonable
[10:48] <ikonia> bolloxmcgee: then you shouldn't have write permissions to sa system directory
[10:49] <ikonia> if you can't understand the basiscs
[10:49] <EADG> unperson: Good luck, there is always a solution.
[10:49] <unperson> EADG, I could try moving the default data connection back to port 20 just for fun I guess.
[10:49] <ubuntuEdgy> what about this , ping | head | grep "64 bytes from"
[10:49] <linxuz3r> why is my ubuntu not very secured
[10:49] <bolloxmcgee> i installed the system all i want is to get flash player workin on 64-bit
[10:49] <alecjw> ikonia, is that how the ubuntu livecd works? coz it has to loopmount the squashfs
[10:49] <babo> I've plugged in a usb disk, I want to put a file in it. But it tells me that I don't have permission to put the file in the usb ... :-(

[10:50] <Zac1> hello?
[10:50] <alecjw> ikonia, thanks :) this could be... interesting (backs up his ipod before he breaks anfthing)
[10:50] <babo> you do not have permission to write to this folder wtf ?
[10:50] <babo> help
[10:51] <debaserdz> caronte.irc-hispano.org/6667
[10:51] <ikonia> babo: I can help you by telling you not to say "wtf"  - its rude
[10:51] <SudoBash> ok then what is a good Linux certification to start out with...
[10:51] <bolloxmcgee> why did i get kicked may i ask?
[10:51] <Zac1> does anyone know why ubuntu keeps RANDOMLY LOGGING ME OFF??

[10:51] <SudoBash> zac1.... activiation loop
[10:51] <SudoBash> lol
[10:52] <Zac1> huh?
[10:52] <pedro> Good night
[10:52] <jrib> tck: yeah, see man pages for rmmod and insmod
[10:52] <etronik> ikonia: Hi again, just read that Samba over internet is not very good (number of reasons) do you know something about webdav ?
[10:53] <jrib> aricz: what are you trying to do?
[10:53] <ikonia> etronik: yes, thats an option but not great for writing
[10:53] <babo> why would my usb mount with no permissions like that ? and why can't i see it from bash ? it doesn't even show in /dev
[10:53] <etronik> ikonia: writing ? writing files you mean ?
[10:53] <ikonia> etronik: yup
[10:53] <aricz> jrib: was?
[10:53] <etronik> ikonia: so what do you recommend ?
[10:53] <jrib> aricz: ok, so you've resolved it?
[10:53] <etronik> ikonia: and with decent integration with windows ;-)
[10:54] <ikonia> etronik: bit tricky really an ftp site seems quite universal with respect to intergrating into linux and windows
[10:54] <aricz> jrib?
[10:54] <jrib> aricz: never mind, I just saw that you asked how to install a .deb and never got an answer
[10:54] <aricz> jrib: ahhhh.. yes, still wondering
[10:54] <bolloxmcgee> how come whenever i use the su command i keep getting authentication failure?
[10:54] <aricz> jrib: I forgot what I was asking about.. :)
[10:54] <etronik> etronik: ok, Guess I'll read up on that
[10:55] <ikonia> bolloxmcgee: because you not meant to use su
[10:55] <tck> jrib, yeah modprobe acts like apt-get and insmod is like dpkg
[10:55] <jrib> aricz: sudo dpkg -i foo.deb   but it's better to use the repositories instead of downloading debs
[10:55] <aricz> jrib: so how do I run a .deb from console?
[10:55] <ikonia> !sudo > bollowmcgee
[10:55] <aricz> thank you
[10:55] <ackdesha> bunga: Thanks! jar does seem to work for large/newer files as far as I can tell.  That saves me.
[10:55] <aricz> jrib: I can't find the zsnes-package
[10:55] <bolloxmcgee> why not any other distro i have used has always allowed me to
[10:55] <aricz> jrib: saw someone talking about it here 10-15mins ago..
[10:55] <babo> why doesn't my usb device show up in dev ?
[10:55] <tovella> bolloxmcgee: the root account is sort of disabled, by default (security reasons).
[10:55] <Bassetts> hi, I have just got a lenovo 3000 C200 and I am just about to install ubuntu on it. I have got to the review of the steps ubuntu will take to install and it says "Migration Assistan: Windows Vista/Longhorn (loader) (/dev/sda1)" will this affect that partition in anyway or will it just add the vista loader to grub?
[10:55] <aricz> jrib: I've uncommented everything in /etc/apt/sources.list .. still no zsnes
[10:55] <tck> babo : try lsusb
[10:55] <bolloxmcgee> can i enable it?
[10:56] <ikonia> bolloxmcgee: you don't
[10:56] <ikonia> !sudo >bolloxmcgee
[10:56] <tovella> bolloxmcgee: yes, you can
[10:56] <bolloxmcgee> but can i?
[10:56] <Bassetts> as that partition is the recovery program for my laptop that I want to keep
[10:56] <Zac1> k so nobody knows why ubuntu keeps logging me out for no reason?
[10:56] <ikonia> tovella: but your not meant to
[10:56] <gdb> bolloxmcgee: there's no need -- "sudo -i" for a root shell
[10:56] <Zac1> in simple terms
[10:56] <ikonia> bolloxmcgee: man sudo
[10:56] <jrib> aricz: what arch are you using?
[10:56] <tovella> ikonia: agreed, but sometimes it's a must-have.
[10:56] <ikonia> tovella: not for "chmodding" which is what he wants
[10:56] <zybrid> running freshinstall 7.04 with updates, i cant activate restricted driver ati, i have 0.5 FPS after reboot, why? what should i do?
[10:57] <gdb> zsnes is in multiverse
[10:57] <Zac1> :(
[10:57] <tovella> ikonia: is that all... i'd just use sudo for that.
[10:57] <zybrid> running x1900xtx
[10:57] <etronik> ikonia: sorry to insist but, what are the problems with Webdav in the file writing area ?
[10:57] <ikonia> etronik: managment the permissions
[10:57] <aricz> jrib: what do you mean? arch?
[10:57] <linxuz3r> does someone have the md5sum of ubuntu 7.04?
[10:57] <jrib> aricz: i386 or amd64?
[10:57] <aricz> jrib : i386
[10:57] <aimtrainer> hi I had my dual monitor nvidia setup with the open source driver (nv) under feisty following a nice little tutorial.. I need to do it again but I cant find the tut. anyboday got an idea?
[10:57] <ikonia> linxuz3r: its on the ubuntu.com download site
[10:57] <sx66> I can not play quick time
[10:58] <jrib> aricz: yeah, it should be in multiverse.  If you believe you have already enabled it, pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:58] <jrib> !paste > aricz (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:58] <Zac1> please? somebody who is smart.
[10:58] <simmerz> is there any good open source project management software as an alternative to MS Project? not looking for server based, but end user apps, preferably that have been ported to windows as well
[10:58] <gdb> simmerz: :-(
[10:58] <tovella> Zac1: we're all as smart as we have time to be.
[10:58] <etronik> simmerz: open workbench
[10:58] <Elipsn> Hey guys, I'm fairly new to linux, but have picked up a lot in the past day or so, I've beat the GTS8800 Blackscreen problem, I've got nvidia drivers working great, beryl is installed and looks awesome, nexuiz runs flawlessly, but I have a few questions....
[10:58] <Zac1> true
[10:59] <etronik> simmerz: open workbench -- oops don't know if theres a linux port - check it out though
[10:59] <zaggynl> Zac1, check your Xorg logs:  nano /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[10:59] <ikonia> Elipsn: just ask the question, stop bigging your self up
[10:59] <Elipsn> I can't seem to get my center button on my mouse to work, its a G5 Rev.2, or any of the side buttons for that matter
[10:59] <tovella> Elipsn: ask away.
[10:59] <etronik> brb
[10:59] <Zac1> ooook and then what do i look for?
[10:59] <simmerz> etronik: don't think there is a linux port yet, but it's a good start
[10:59] <simmerz> thanks
[10:59] <nickrud> hopefully crimsun is around, since I have a sound problem with the latest kernel
[10:59] <omegacenti> !unpack
[10:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about unpack - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:59] <omegacenti> !tar
[10:59] <ubotu> Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (GNOME) or Ark (KDE) - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression

[10:59] <ikonia> nickrud: just ask the question
[11:00] <vox754> Linux time line http://730x.up.md/wp-content/44218-1.png
[11:00] <tovella> Elipsn: it's been so long since i've seen an actual 3button mouse.  is yours used to scroll?
[11:00] <Elipsn> tovella: Yes.
[11:00] <Zac1> i do not have a nano folder
[11:00] <tyler_d> idonia: GIMPshop....
[11:00] <tovella> Elipsn: let me do some checking...
[11:00] <vox754> Current ndiswrapper is 1.47
[11:01] <tyler_d> ikonia: GIMPshop
[11:01] <Elipsn> tovella, thanks
[11:01] <Zac1> or at least i couldnt find the nano folder
[11:01] <bharat862004> can only one tell me how to use apt.... i have never used it earlier :)
[11:01] <crva> I've setup samba on my linux machine. However, I can only access the share on my XP machine by typing it in directly. How can I access my samba share on XP by double clicking on Workgroup? My smb.conf has workgroup=WORKGROUP
[11:01] <Bassetts> hi, I have just got a lenovo 3000 C200 and I am just about to install ubuntu on it. I have got to the review of the steps ubuntu will take to install and it says "Migration Assistan: Windows Vista/Longhorn (loader) (/dev/sda1)" will this affect that partition in anyway or will it just add the vista loader to grub?
[11:01] <zybrid> hey, anyone knows how to get my x1900xtx gfxcard working with ati restricted driver? its sooooooo slow now :(
[11:01] <bolloxmcgee> anyone here know how to get flashplayer working in ubuntu 7.04 feisty fawn?
[11:02] <bolloxmcgee> 64bit
[11:02] <nickrud> with the latest (and previous -16 kernel, I have no sound. with the -15 series, I do. alsamixer fails with the error message function snd_mixer_load failed: Invalid argument . The same modules are loaded in both kernels; the only difference is snd_hda_codec has a different size
[11:02] <Elipsn> tovella, I dont really need *all* the buttons this mouse has to work, I just want to forward and back side buttons to work, and the center button click to work, it scrolls fine, but I want to centerclick auto scroll
[11:02] <Zac1> Bassetts: when you install Ubuntu it will wipe your HDD clean if you dont partition it
[11:02] <aricz> jrib : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25436/plain/
[11:02] <jrib> bolloxmcgee: http://www.janvitus.netsons.org/2007/01/15/nspluginwrapper-adobe-flash-player/
[11:02] <Bassetts> Zac1 I have setup the partitions and sda1 is not being mounted or touched in anyway
[11:03] <bharat862004> can some tell me how to use apt in ubuntu ????????? :(
[11:03] <sx66> how do you configure the screen blacklight to turn off other than the default of 30min?
[11:03] <jrib> !apt > bharat862004 (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:03] <tovella> Elipsn: you said it's on a mac G5?
[11:03] <Bassetts> Zac1 but I am worried what it means by "Migration Assistan: Windows Vista/Longhorn (loader) (/dev/sda1)"
[11:03] <linxuz3r> how do i know which xine version i have
[11:03] <zaggynl> you can use lsof to check if a file/directory is being used right?
[11:03] <nickrud> zaggynl, yes
[11:04] <Elipsn> tovella, its a logitech G5 rev.2 mouse
[11:04] <zaggynl> I can't unmount my usb case, says it's in use
[11:04] <zaggynl> yet lsof nor fuser turn up something
[11:04] <tovella> Elipsn: i see...
[11:04] <Elipsn> sorry, should have clarified
[11:04] <jrib> aricz: there are four lines that contain "universe" but do not contain " multiverse".  On those four lines, add " multiverse" to the end.  Save the file.  Then run 'sudo apt-get update'
[11:04] <nickrud> zaggynl, lsof | grep <mountpoint> should show what's using it
[11:04] <zaggynl> cheers
[11:05] <Elipsn> tovella, I remember seeing something about the mouse config inside of "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg", might that have something to do with it?
[11:05] <starter2> how do i use innotek virtualbox to acess host files from gueet os?
[11:05] <cables> starter2: read the manual that comes with it.
[11:05] <tovella> Elipsn: perhaps.
[11:05] <aricz> jrib: hm, ok, something's happening, thanks:)
[11:05] <ramanK> hi
[11:06] <Zac1> Bassetts: well im not really familiar with the vista "migration" system, so i am not sure how it will affect your system, BUT if you have partitioned the drive into 2, one for Vista the other for Ubuntu, and your files are on the Vista partion then it shouldnt affect them by installing Ubuntu unless you install Ubuntu on the wrong partition which has been known to happen.
[11:06] <cables> starter2: there's a PDF manual in /opt/VirtualBox-X.X.X called UserManual.pdf, it covers it in depth.
[11:06] <tovella> Elipsn: actually, i think it only has one question about whether or not you want to emulate a 3 button mouse with a 2 button device.
[11:06] <bolloxmcgee> right ive got my 2 packages i need how do turn them from .rpm to .deb?
[11:06] <cables> !alien | bolloxmcgee
[11:06] <ubotu> bolloxmcgee: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[11:06] <Bassetts> Zac1 the vista partition is the partition with the recovery program on to restore the system to factory default, its not a working vista partition as such
[11:07] <Bassetts> Zac1 but I am worried this will stop me being able to boot into it.
[11:07] <Elipsn> tovella, I can't remember what I told it, I think i'll run it again and see what I can do
[11:07] <jrib> bolloxmcgee: why? what packages?
[11:07] <aricz> jrib : woho, it worked, found the zsnes-package, installed, and up running:) ohlala!
[11:07] <aricz> jrib: thank you thank you
[11:07] <zybrid> what is the best howto for ati working in 7.04?
[11:07] <tovella> Elipsn: can you open a terminal window?
[11:07] <bolloxmcgee> nspluginwrapper
[11:07] <Elipsn> tovella, done
[11:07] <cables> zybrid: have you tried going to System>Administration>Restricted Drivers Manager?
[11:07] <starter2> says i should use net use x: \\vboxsrv\share
[11:07] <starter2> but that doesnt worj
[11:07] <jrib> bolloxmcgee: the page I linked you to provides you with an ubuntu repository with the packages.  No need to use rpm's
[11:08] <BlueDevil> ikonia: EXTRAVERSION = .3ubuntu1 was defined in the kernel Makefile
[11:08] <rustalot> out of intel, ati, nvidia, intel's drivers are the best, right?
[11:08] <cables> no
[11:08] <cables> intel
[11:08] <ramanK> Who can tell me :Does Ubuntu have "gtkmm-dev" package on it's CD or DVD?
[11:08] <cables> rustalot:  intel>nvidia>ate
[11:08] <fruitbag> Hey, guys...
[11:09] <bolloxmcgee> jrib all i get is  Couldn't find package nspluginwrapper
[11:09] <Bassetts> can no one tell me what the installer means by "Migration Assistant: Windows Vista/Longhorn (loader) (/dev/sda1)"
[11:09] <cables> starter2: did you add the vm from the host first?
[11:09] <zybrid> cables: yes, not working, its soooooooooooooooooooo slow
[11:09] <jrib> bolloxmcgee: did you follow the instructions on the website to add the repository?
[11:09] <cables> Bassetts: that just tells you what the migration assistant found.
[11:09] <bolloxmcgee> yea sudo apt-get install nspluginwrapper
[11:09] <crva> any idea on why my XP machine cant access my samba share through Workgroups?
[11:09] <starter2> cables yeah i added a folder starter to point to /home/starter2
[11:09] <starter2> as a machine folder
[11:09] <TheCougar> ok why is the only thing ic and o on my ntfs partition is to delete something. i can't paste or create a new folder
[11:09] <starter2> and it cant connect
[11:09] <jrib> bolloxmcgee: no, that just tries to install the package.  You need to add janvitus' repository
[11:09] <tovella> ok, we'll need to have a look at your xorg.conf, so enter this command, "gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[11:09] <tovella> copy & past the results to pastebin.com.  let me know the pastebin url it give you.
[11:10] <Bassetts> cables: so it will not touch the partition at all and i will still be able to boot into the partition to run the recovery program?
[11:10] <TheCougar> i've enabled ntfs-3g writing
[11:10] <cables> Bassetts: it's going to resize the partition.
[11:10] <rustalot> cables: so if I'm getting a new computer, and want beryl to work nicely, it's best to go for itel over the others?
[11:10] <cables> rustalot: probably, although you should ask in #ubuntu-effects to be sure.
[11:10] <TheCougar> nevermind:(
[11:10] <bolloxmcgee> jrib: how do i do that it doesnt say anything about adding repositries here
[11:10] <Bassetts> cables: why? i told it not to mount the partition and to just leave it alone
[11:10] <simplyw00x> rustalot: I've had it working fine with ati nvidia
[11:10] <Zac1> Bassetts: if your that worried about it then make sure you have your OS cd.
[11:10] <ramanK> Who can tell me :Does Ubuntu have "gtkmm-dev" package on it's CD or DVD?
[11:10] <cables> Bassetts: because it needs to make room for itself. You can't install to a full drive without resizing the partition
[11:10] <Bassetts> cables: just to let you know this is on the review
[11:11] <jrib> bolloxmcgee: the tab at the top that says "repository"
[11:11] <zybrid> cables: know any good ati-howto?
[11:11] <bolloxmcgee> right got ya
[11:11] <Bassetts> cables: its a 5GB drive, ubuntu has a 2GB swap, 10 GB root and 60GB /home
[11:11] <cables> Bassetts: I realize that. That has nothing to do with whether it'll work or not, it just means it found Vista and has offered to import settings.
[11:11] <Bassetts> Zac1: i cannot backup that partition it is hidden
[11:11] <cables> Bassetts: how did you make those partitions without resizing the Vista one?
[11:11] <jrib> bolloxmcgee: you can use it just for nspluginwrapper and then remove it if you wish
[11:11] <bolloxmcgee> it aint workin man?
[11:12] <fuzzyhair> I need some added security for my ubuntu server. Where should I start?
[11:12] <jrib> bolloxmcgee: what exactly is not working?
[11:12] <Bassetts> cables: because it was a 5GB partition on a 80GB HDD, its just the partition with the sofware on to restore the factory OS image
[11:12] <jordan__> How do I enable the component video OUT of my nvidia graphics card in fiesty with HD resolutions??
[11:12] <benzs_s> is there any way to move /home onto another partition?
[11:12] <benzs_s> witohut angering the gods
[11:12] <cables> Bassetts: so you're removing Vista, and just leaving the Vista recovery partition?
[11:12] <simplyw00x> benzs_s: yes
[11:12] <Bassetts> cables: in a way yes, althought i removed vista ages ago
[11:13] <bolloxmcgee> whenever i put in wget http://janvitus.interfree.it/ubuntu/2C4C84CC.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -
[11:13] <benzs_s> simplyw00x: how? :)
[11:13] <ramanK> Please help me:Does Ubuntu have "gtkmm-dev" package on it's CD or DVD?
[11:13] <zybrid> god, why cant they fix the damn ati driver, restricted driver doesnt work :(
[11:13] <crimsun> ramanK: no.
[11:13] <cables> Bassetts: unless you chose to format the recovery partition, it won't do anything to it.
[11:13] <jrib> bolloxmcgee: join me in #ubuntu-classroom
[11:13] <Zac1> Bassets: it doesnt matter if it is hidden or not, if you have your OS/Drivers disk then no matter what if you want to re-install Vista all  you have to do is put in those CDs
[11:13] <simplyw00x> benzs_s: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/01/29/move-home-to-its-own-partition/
[11:14] <simplyw00x> some comprehensive instructions that worked fine for me twice
[11:14] <ekso> ikonia: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=473032
[11:14] <cables> Zac1: a lot of companies don't pack a os/driver disk any more.
[11:14] <Bassetts> cables: so the report is just saying the hidden partition with the boot loader for vista on the recovery partition will be added to grub?
[11:14] <ramanK> crimsun: I must download it?
[11:14] <crimsun> ramanK: yes.
[11:14] <Zac1> Cables: are they stupid?
[11:14] <benzs_s> simplywoox: thanks very much
[11:14] <Zac1> hah
[11:14] <crimsun> !info libgtkmm2.4-dev
[11:14] <ubotu> Package libgtkmm2.4-dev does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[11:14] <Paradoxx> How do I update the locate command?
[11:14] <Zac1> well i just had to do the same thing that bassetts is doin
[11:14] <jrib> Paradoxx: sudo updatedb   updates the database it uses
[11:14] <crimsun> !info libgtkmm-2.4-dev
[11:15] <Zac1> Bassetts what computer brand do you have?
[11:15] <ubotu> libgtkmm-2.4-dev: C++ wrappers for GTK+ 2.4 (development files). In component main, is optional. Version 1:2.10.8-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 974 kB, installed size 7848 kB
[11:15] <Bassetts> Zac1: lenovo 3000 C200
[11:15] <nickrud> with the latest (and previous -16 kernel, I have no sound. with the -15 series, I do. alsamixer fails with the error message function snd_mixer_load failed: Invalid argument . The same modules are loaded in both kernels; the only difference is snd_hda_codec has a different size. I'm not sure where to start looking
[11:15] <Paradoxx> Is sudo a debian only command?
[11:15] <cables> Bassetts: I'm not sure.
[11:15] <jrib> Paradoxx: no
[11:15] <doucettenr> how to i upgrade from 5.10
[11:15] <cables> Paradoxx: no, it works on Ubuntu, as well as pretty much every other distro, it even works on Mac OS X.
[11:15] <jrib> !upgrade > doucettenr (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:15] <Bassetts> Zac1: they basically give you a hidden partition with a program on it and a image of the orignal OS, thats how you restore the OS these days
[11:15] <iscin> woo
[11:15] <iscin> pie matters
[11:16] <ubuntuEdgy> Paradoxx:  type loctae --help
[11:16] <maeth> i installed ubuntu before without the linux swap partition, then i created it now using gparted, do i have to do something to activate it?
[11:16] <ubuntuEdgy> sory "locate"
[11:16] <Bassetts> cables I hope it doesnt, i have clicked finish =P
[11:16] <cables> maeth: yeah, you need to somehow tell Ubuntu to swap onto it. I believe the command is "swapon" but i don't know if that makes it permanent.
[11:16] <nickrud> maeth, yes. sudo swapon -a will start it up now, but you'll need to add a line to /etc/fstab to make it permanent
[11:16] <Zac1> Bassetts:  ok well i just bought my computer 4 months ago, i didnt have my OS cd and i called up my brand and they sent me one
[11:17] <cables> It's always good to have an OS cd around
[11:17] <maeth> nickrud, ok
[11:17] <omegacenti> This is just annoying. Open office has this huge error among all ubuntu distros. Form wizard does not work.
[11:17] <nickrud> maeth,  /dev/<whatever> none            swap    sw              0       0  should do the trick
[11:17] <Bassetts> Zac1: I think it is possible to order one, but the hidden partition is the way companies do it now
[11:18] <maeth> nickrud, k, i did swapon -a , it didnt say anything back, i suppose its runing, how can i tell if it is?
[11:18] <_Michael> http://frozentech.com i found i am about to order a cd or 4 from them
[11:18] <Zac1> Bassetts: ok well im just telling you so that even if you do have an accident with this MIgration then no matter what you can get Vista back, a safeguard if you will
[11:18] <nicklas> Hello.
[11:18] <Bassetts> Zac1 thanks =D
[11:19] <_Michael> I found a place that sell linux cds for $0.99 but i can't choose lol
[11:20] <nickrud> maeth, a good question :)
[11:20] <voici> hi, my notebook doesn't boot feisty. it hangs with udev-event[1916]  run_program: '/sbin/modprobe' abnormal exit. 6.10 used to work fine. i installed it from the 7.04 live-cd which worked fine also
[11:20] <ubuntuEdgy> /nice tts
[11:20] <maeth> nickrud, and how can i tell how is it called the swap partition? like /dev/(whatever)
[11:20] <hube> #ubuntu.pl
[11:21] <fruitbag> Hey, guys...
[11:21] <nickrud> maeth, top has a line that tells you about swap usage,
[11:21] <fruitbag> ...does anyone here know anything about Abiword
[11:21] <fruitbag> ?
[11:21] <nickrud> maeth, what partitition did you set up as the swap partition?
[11:21] <mwe> fruitbag: it's a word processor ;)
[11:21] <maeth> 0k used :S
[11:21] <maeth> nickrud, swapon -a
[11:21] <fruitbag> mwe: I was wondering if it supports mathematics.
[11:21] <starter2> it still doesnt work
[11:21] <maeth> nickrud, gotta set something else?
[11:22] <mwe> fruitbag: like a spread sheet?
[11:22] <starter2> i get error 53
[11:22] <ubuntuEdgy> >
[11:22] <fruitbag> No, mwe.
[11:22] <fruitbag> Mathematical notation.
[11:22] <fruitbag> ...to incorporate in mathematical papers.
[11:22] <nickrud> maeth, when you used gparted to make the swap partition, you had to set up some disk space for it
[11:22] <mwe> fruitbag: I don't really know. I use latex for that kind of stuff
[11:22] <_Michael> I just want some peoples opinion what is the top 3 linux distros from the list here(in the CDs section) http://frozentech.com
[11:22] <fruitbag> Yes, mwe... but what is the case with Abiword?
[11:22] <fruitbag> OpenOffice is an interesting word processor
[11:23] <sn0> _Michael it depends what you want from an OS
[11:23] <maeth> nickrud, yes, id resized the partition, then created a new partition in format swap-linux
[11:23] <sn0> that can be different for everyone, so try as many as you can, then you decide for yourself :)
[11:23] <mwe> fruitbag: like I said I don't know. If I have to use a word processor in linux I tend to use openoffice
[11:23] <maeth> nickrud, i give to the swap partition 2 gb
[11:23] <_Michael> Sno i need
[11:23] <sn0> i would definately recommend a debian/based distro like debian/ubuntu/ and so on, but im biased
[11:23] <Jakky> Is anyone good with ndiswrapper and connecting to the net?
[11:23] <_Michael> see*
[11:23] <ubuntu> I'm installing Feisty and partitioning manually. I have Dapper root installed on hda1, Dapper Home on hda2, I've designated hda3 as Root for Feisty, and hda4 is Swap. I want to share home and swap. Do I need to select hda2(dapper home) and edit to mount at /home, or will the installer "figure" things out?
[11:23] <fruitbag> Openofficeis nice.
[11:24] <nickrud> maeth, so the partition you created is /dev/<whatever>
[11:24] <Jakky> Yeah OO is nice.
[11:24] <mwe> fruitbag: that does support formulas
[11:24] <_Michael> Have you heard anything about opensuse?
[11:24] <maeth> nickrud, i think so, i dont know how its called
[11:24] <_Michael> I am going to order ubuntu
[11:24] <steveire> I've used usermod -a -G admin mike to add mike to admin. How do I remove mike from the admin group?
[11:24] <Jakky> Can anyone help me connect to the net with ndiswrapper
[11:24] <Jakky> ?
[11:24] <sn0> yes, im not a fan really, it seemed an ok distro but i could never use it day to day
[11:24] <_Michael> opensuse and maybe 1-3 more
[11:24] <_Michael> oh i see
[11:25] <mwe> Jakky: connect or configure ndiswrapper?
[11:25] <maeth> nickrud, how can i find out the name of the partition?
[11:25] <sn0> but thats my opinion :)
[11:25] <nickrud> maeth, try sudo fdisk -l  , it'll tell you about your partition usage
[11:25] <Jakky> mwe: i have it configured
[11:25] <_Michael> what was the downfall to it for you?
[11:25] <maeth> nickrud, k , found it
[11:25] <sn0> well this isn't really a place to discuss _Michael , this is for ubuntu support :)
[11:25] <Jakky> mwe: I run "modprobe ndiswrapper"
[11:25] <mwe> Jakky: so ndiswrapper -l says driver loaded, hardware present?
[11:25] <maeth> nickrud, /sdc3
[11:25] <Jakky> mwe: Yes
[11:25] <sn0> so i hope you well to try out some distros, and choose what suits you best
[11:26] <nickrud> maeth, you mean /dev/sdc3
[11:26] <steveire> Anyone?
[11:26] <maeth> yes
[11:26] <_Michael> i'll go to a foum
[11:26] <maeth> nickrud, yes
[11:26] <_Michael> forum*
[11:26] <nickrud> maeth,  /dev/sdc3  none            swap    sw              0       0  should do the trick
[11:26] <maeth> nickrud, ok
[11:26] <mwe> Jakky: If you use gnome it's probably easiest to use network-manager
[11:26] <Jakky> mwe: modprobe runs fine, but then I run "ifconfig -a" and there is no wlan0
[11:27] <maeth> nickrud, then sudo mount -a ??
[11:27] <mwe> Jakky: If you use gnome it's probably easiest to use network-manager
[11:27] <nickrud> maeth, sudo swapon 0a
[11:27] <TheCougar> any reason why my sd card won't mount after i took it out and put it back in? *i did not unmount it before removing it does this have to be done?*
[11:27] <ubuntuNoobus> has anyone seen a version of ubuntu running on an xbox?
[11:27] <nickrud> maeth, sudo swapon -a
[11:27] <mwe> Jakky: do you insist configuring it manually?
[11:27] <sldkfj> steveire, man pages are pretty good for that kind of stuff, you get to learn a whole lot of things about the usermod command
[11:27] <Jakky> mwe: I like whatever works.
[11:28] <nickrud> steveire, deluser <user> <group>
[11:28] <mwe> Jakky: try network-manager-gnome, then
[11:28] <maeth> nickrud, Swap:  2072376k total,        0k used,  2072376k free,   874180k cached
[11:28] <nickrud> maeth, good to go
[11:28] <Jakky> mwe: So did I even need ndiswrapper?
[11:28] <etronik> simmerz:  concerning open workbench, you could try it under wine... see if it works
[11:28] <maeth> nickrud, k , thanks man :D
[11:28] <maeth> nickrud, cya :D
[11:28] <mwe> Jakky: you need some kind of driver
[11:28] <hube> # ubuntu.pl
[11:28] <ubuntu> Okay, so swap looks like it's chosen. Do I need to edit the /home partition to share it? Er, so to share a /home folder, do I chose a mountpoint during partition editing?
[11:28] <mwe> Jakky: if there is no linux native driver ndiswrapper is your only option
[11:29] <hube> join #ubuntu.pl
[11:29] <Jakky> mwe:
[11:29] <simmerz> etronik: it doesn't properly. you can't save
[11:29] <Jakky> mwe: Okay, I did that.
[11:29] <mwe> Jakky: did what
[11:29] <ubuntu> tst
[11:29] <steveire> The usermod man page doesn't mention removing a user from the group. I'll give the userdel a shot
[11:29] <Jakky> mwe: Used ndiswrapper for my windows driver
[11:29] <ubuntuNoobus> has anyone seen a version of ubuntu running on an xbox?
[11:29] <Jakky> mwe: why would modprobe not add wlan0?
[11:29] <sldkfj> steveire, you can append
[11:30] <steveire> sldkfj: I want to remove, not append
[11:30] <mwe> Jakky: because it doesn't bring up the interface for you
[11:30] <sldkfj> and there is a -f for it to become inactive
[11:30] <ubuntuNoobus> has anyone seen a version of ubuntu running on an xbox?
[11:30] <Jakky> mwe: Thanks for the help, I'll give it a try.
[11:31] <nickrud> steveire, ubuntu provides some useful frontends to that: adduser, addgroup, deluser and delgroup look those over
[11:31] <mwe> Jakky: are you familiar with network-manager?
[11:31] <sldkfj> steveire, or -e for expiredate
[11:31] <Jakky> mwe: no
[11:32] <Jakky> mwe: but i'm downloading it
[11:32] <Jakky> mwe: if it helps i'm runnign edgy
[11:32] <betho> oi
[11:33] <mwe> Jakky: well does your AP use encryption?
[11:33] <Jakky> mwe: ya
[11:33] <mwe> Jakky: wpa or wep?
[11:33] <Jakky> mwe: wpa
[11:34] <PeaceYo> woot!
[11:34] <Jakky> mwe: g2g
[11:34] <Jakky> mwe: thanks
[11:34] <mwe> Jakky: ok. then either use network-manager or read a tedious howto
[11:34] <TheCougar> ubuntuNoobus: http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/misc/xbox-raincoat i would presume this means it is possible. but this most likely has to be applied first
[11:34] <mwe> yw
[11:34] <PeaceYo> ubuntu kicks ass!
[11:35] <sldkfj> steveire,     sudo usermod -a -G 'Jerry' -e 20070613    (I've never done it before so this is guess-work)
[11:35] <ianm1> is it possible to run kernel 2.6.22 in feisty?  (I think it includes the fix for my DLink DWL-650 wireless card)
[11:35] <ubuntuNoobus> does anyone know about running and installing ipodlinux?
[11:35] <steveire> sldkfj: deluser mike admin did it
[11:35] <sldkfj> cool
[11:36] <sldkfj> way to find out for yourself
[11:36] <sldkfj> oo-rah
[11:36] <kbrooks> is there a guide for how to install and run untrusted Linux programs in a quarantine?
[11:36] <steveire> sldkfj: Someone above mentioned it.
[11:36] <TheCougar> any reason why my sd card won't mount after i took it out and put it back in? *i did not unmount it before removing it does this have to be done?*
[11:36] <sldkfj> ahh, so you didn't find it out,  at least you're honest :)
[11:38] <drew> can anyone help me with thunderbird 2.0
[11:39] <ubuntu> I'm installing a second Linux system. DO I use Logical or Primary partition?
[11:39] <sx66> what kind of food is in here?
[11:39] <mwe> sx66: 42
[11:39] <sooperdawg>  I'm installing a second Linux system. DO I use Logical or
[11:39] <sooperdawg>                 Primary partition?
[11:39] <jep1> I can't connect to my virtual machine (vmware --> win2k) so I can't change datas between my two operating systems (host --> ubuntu | guest --> win2k
[11:39] <jep1> )
[11:39] <sx66> mwe, what?
[11:40] <jep1> can anybody help?
[11:40] <sooperdawg> sorry for the double post
[11:40] <mwe> sooperdawg: either
[11:40] <ianm1> kbrooks: I imagine you want to run it as a different user (fairly safe) or in a virtual machine (very safe)
[11:41] <Hash-the-cracker> hello
[11:41] <mwe> sooperdawg: both will work equally well
[11:41] <jep1> I tried really a lot...samba, winscp3, putty
[11:41] <jep1> but I can't find the other machine
[11:41] <Hash-the-cracker> can sum1 helpme with a drive prob
[11:41] <kbrooks> ianm1, a vm is overkill
[11:41] <sooperdawg> thank you. Is there a difference?
[11:41] <SeriousStorm85> having problems using sudo make
[11:42] <ianm1> kbrooks: depends how "untrusted" it is.  so run it as a new user account with limited access
[11:42] <mwe> sooperdawg: not much besides the numering of the partitions and the physical layout. then functionallity is the same
[11:42] <sooperdawg> mwe: Thank you very much
[11:42] <Tarantulafudg3> Can somebody tell me how update-grub finds out which drive to setup grub on? e.g. hd(0,0)? My drives got moved around and it is stuck wrong
[11:42] <inkogneato> jep1, what OS on vmware guest
[11:43] <mwe> Tarantulafudg3: I don't think it installs grub. it just updates the config file
[11:43] <Tarantulafudg3> mwe: thats what I mean
[11:43] <Tarantulafudg3> mwe: the configuration entires have the wrong (hdx,x) lines
[11:43] <sooperdawg> mwe: one more question. Does logical or primary affect GRUB at all?
[11:44] <jep1> inkogneato: win2k prof.
[11:44] <pagesailor> tarantula: the options are in the menu /boot/grub/menu.lst file
[11:44] <|_ocke> how can i mount a ntfs partition writable
[11:44] <mwe> Tarantulafudg3: in that case you need to edit the #groot line in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:45] <mwe> Tarantulafudg3: then rerun update-grub
[11:45] <Tarantulafudg3> mwe: I did, several times
[11:45] <Tarantulafudg3> mwe: oh wait
[11:45] <Tarantulafudg3> mwe: sec
[11:45] <neverblue4> i ran smartctl to check my drive, I ran smartctl -d ata -t offline  /dev/sda first, then smartctl -d ata -t long  /dev/sda second, now the -a flag should tell me my most update information about the drive, is that correct?
[11:45] <inkogneato> jep1, same subnet? shares available on one one machine?
[11:45] <kbrooks> ianm1, okay
[11:46] <ianm1> kbrooks: where are you getting this "untrusted" software anyway?
[11:46] <Tarantulafudg3> mwe: thanks
[11:46] <inkogneato> jep1, can you ping vmware -> win2k?
[11:46] <jep1> yes
[11:46] <jep1> I can
[11:46] <jep1> both sides
[11:47] <jep1> guest and host have different IP's
[11:47] <kitche> maybe some of you can help me out it's not a critical error but on bootup I see an error like REBOOT is disabled by hardware anyone know what this deals with since I never seen it before
[11:48] <ianm1> kitche: get our of your house, NOW!!
[11:48] <|_ocke> any ideas? i backed up data onto my linux drive from a winxp drive, now i need to copy it back, i need to mount the partition as writable
[11:48] <UAEmirates> hello guys
[11:48] <kbrooks> ianm1, um, i'm not. i am just curious
[11:49] <ianm1> kbrooks: if it were me, and if it were really untrusted, definitely in a virtual machine
[11:49] <neverblue4> i ran smartctl to check my drive, I ran smartctl -d ata -t offline  /dev/sda first, then smartctl -d ata -t long  /dev/sda second, now the -a flag should tell me my most update information about the drive, is that correct?
[11:49] <mwe> kbrooks: umlinux is a good option I think
[11:49] <ianm1> kbrooks: or on a different/temp box.  or on a liveCD system with the harddrive detached! :)
[11:49] <kitche> ianm1: think I found what it that said that on boot
[11:50] <UAEmirates> i need help on sound card guys , i got 2 sound cards 1 creative  and one on board  ,  when i lunced live cd sound was working but now it dosnt work , sound always muted too
[11:50] <TheCougar> any reason why my sd card won't mount after i took it out and put it back in? *i did not unmount it before removing it does this have to be done?*
[11:50] <crimsun> UAEmirates: just disable your onboard by blacklisting its driver.
[11:51] <kitche> TheCougar: the system still think it's mounted
[11:51] <mwe> kbrooks: umlinux is a nice way of testing and debugging buggy and potentially harmful software in many cases
[11:51] <UAEmirates> im new to linux , i have no idea how to disaple it
[11:51] <UAEmirates> disable*
[11:52] <novato_br> how can I get grub again ?
[11:52] <novato_br> i lost my grub instalation
[11:52] <neverblue4> UAEmirates: check your mic Icon
[11:52] <neverblue4> err, speaker icon
[11:52] <kitche> !grub | novato_br
[11:52] <novato_br> !grub
[11:52] <ubotu> novato_br: 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
[11:52] <kitche> hmm no ubotu or is it lagging again well there we go
[11:52] <TheCougar> kitche: any way to force it to think it isn't mounted and then remount it?
[11:53] <kitche> TheCougar: sudo umount is the only way you can force it by umount -f <device>
[11:53] <TheCougar> ok
[11:53] <jep1> inkogneato, still there?
[11:53] <TheCougar> so the lesson of the day is that you can't just remove mounted devices without first unmounting them
[11:54] <inkogneato> jep1, yes?
[11:54] <Nicholas> Hi all, I have messed up my ubuntu and wish to reinstall the operating system. I have the live cd in the drive but  my computer still loads the old copy on the HD regardless of the fact I have it set to boot for the CD drive. How can I load the Live cd instead of the local ubuntu
[11:54] <UAEmirates> hmmmm this irc client is weird
[11:54] <jep1> what can I do for connecting with vm
[11:54] <ianm1> UAEmirates: which?  GAIM can also do IRC
[11:55] <t1n0m3n> is there anyone that can guide me thru wifi connectivity using certs?
[11:55] <maeth> hi, im trying to open a graphic aplication via ssh -x using my pc connected to my server
[11:55] <vox754> Nicholas, try a different Linux live CD like Knoppix. The format your ubuntu partition and the reinstall
[11:55] <jep1> I wanted to send some datas between host and guest
[11:55] <inkogneato> jep1, can you ping vmware -> win2k
[11:55] <UAEmirates> im using xchat -gnome
[11:55] <Nicholas> looking for a quicker fix
[11:55] <TheCougar> kitche: what command would i want to use to find out what the mount is?
[11:55] <maeth> when i say xload it gives me Error: Can't open display:

[11:55] <FerrariD> Goood afternoon!!! :D
[11:55] <neverblue4> i ran smartctl to check my drive, I ran smartctl -d ata -t offline  /dev/sda first, then smartctl -d ata -t long  /dev/sda second, now the -a flag should tell me my most update information about the drive, is that correct?
[11:55] <vox754> Nicholas, disconnect the drive, move it to another PC and format it there, then move it back again and reinstall
[11:55] <jep1> inkogneato, yes I can
[11:56] <kitche> TheCougar: mount should tell you even if the device isn't there
[11:56] <ianm1> UAEmirates: GAIM is a nice simple irc client
[11:56] <Nicholas> thats what i'm trying not to do
[11:56] <UAEmirates> i will check if i have it
[11:56] <dts> I hosed my MySQL. Is there a way i can erase /var/lib/mysql and have the default files regenerated?
[11:56] <kitche> UAEmirates: yeah it's odd xchat hates it so don't bug them about it :)
[11:56] <Nicholas> i don't understand what I can't select to boot from the live cd
[11:56] <inkogneato> jep1, same workgroup?
[11:56] <Nicholas> does ubuntu override BIOS boot seetings?
[11:56] <UAEmirates> brb
[11:56] <QuickSilv> hi, can someone please help me with my partitioning plan?
[11:57] <QuickSilv> :)
[11:57] <kitche> Nicholas: nope see if it's still set to boot from cd
[11:57] <Nicholas> it is, its the first boot device
[11:57] <craigbass1976> Is there a way to ls -r but only show the directories and not all the fies in them?
[11:57] <fruitbag> So, guys -- any thoughts?
[11:57] <mwe> dts: to start over from scratch you could probably sudo aptidue purge mysql && sudo aptitude install mysql
[11:57] <UAEmirates> this is better
[11:57] <flash> hI
[11:58] <mwe> dts: mysql-server, that is
[11:58] <ianm1> fruitbag: lots of 'em!
[11:58] <vox754> Nicholas, unplug the drive then see if the Live CD boots
[11:58] <killown> how I do to convert images .icns?
[11:59] <nico_> has anyone tried installing ubuntu on a USB drive yet?
[11:59] <jep1> inkogneato, what do you mean by 'same workgroup'
