[12:01] <killown> how I do to convert images .icns?
[12:01] <ico2> neverblue4, you sure i dont need those repositories?
[12:01] <craigbass1976> Is there a way to ls -R but only show the directories and not all the fies in them?  How does one, from a command line, show a directory tree?
[12:01] <neverblue4> ico2: u probably do
[12:02] <neverblue4> ico2: but have you editted them, now its causing errors?
[12:02] <kitche> ico2: #ubuntu+1 for gutsy support
[12:02] <mwe> nico_: I have a 1GB stick. I installed a live CD. It involved a fair amount of fiddling but it was all explained
[12:02] <OhMyAudi> !beryl
[12:02] <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
[12:02] <nico_> mwe: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2007/02/12/usb-ubuntu-tutorial-for-linux-users/ this one?
[12:02] <mwe> nico_: obviously the dvd wont fit
[12:02] <ico2> kitche, neverblue, thanks
[12:02] <vox754> Huffameg, open your terminal the enter "vlc", open the DVD, then when it crashes you'll see errors on the console. That may give an idea of the error, you can search that error in Launchpad, or maybe file a bug report. Eh, not good at explaining right now.
[12:02] <nico_> oh really, if you squeese really hard, use a hamer to kick the files into the drive
[12:03] <kitche> ico2: they would know more over there then here anyways for gutsy
[12:03] <mwe> nico_: it wasn't that one but looking at it it seems fair
[12:03] <jep1> inkogneato are you seeing my messages?
[12:03] <vox754> craigbass1976, maybe try "ls -Rd", -d is for directories I think
[12:03] <lack> What is the default version of gcc included with Ubuntu 7.04?
[12:04] <BigToe> !offtopic | BigToe
[12:04] <fy1> hi, when apt-get dist-upgrade from dapper to feisty i got stuck here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25451/
[12:04] <craigbass1976> vox754, tried that, and I just get a .
[12:04] <inkogneato> jep1, saw that one...
[12:04] <kitche> lack: umm it's not included but most likely 4.1 or 4.2 prehaps
[12:04] <gnychis> which is better to use, apt-get or apptitude?
[12:04] <nico_> mwe, now, i only nee to find my ubuntu CD, probably somewhere in a secure safe so no one can touch it
[12:04] <jep1> I mean the private one
[12:04] <mwe> nico_: how do you intend to use it? I found I didn't miss anything though it wasn't the dvd
[12:04] <jep1> doesn't work
[12:04] <mwe> nico_: or download the image and mount it
[12:04] <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?
[12:04] <vox754> gnychis, aptitude is a frontend , "man aptitude", "man apt-get"
[12:05] <kitche> lack: just have to install gcc to get it or build-essential
[12:05] <jep1> gaim is very buggie.....
[12:05] <mwe> nico_: that will work as well
[12:05] <nico_> ok
[12:05] <nico_> mount it and copy the content to the USB drive
[12:05] <nico_> should work?
[12:05] <lack> kitche: And is it possible to install a 3.x series compiler?
[12:05] <vox754> lack, use "gcc --version"
[12:05] <lack> vox754: Yes, if I were running ubuntu I would do that :)
[12:05] <kitche> lack: if you compile it yourself
[12:05] <mwe> nico_: just adjust the paths accordingly. eg cd /cdrom would be cd /mnt or whereever you mount it
[12:06] <vox754> lack , very funny
[12:06] <Huffameg> vox754: okay. i understand... unfortunately i have so far avoided using terminal so i don't know how to move around.. could you give me a clue, please?
[12:06] <killown> how I do to convert images .icns?
[12:06] <inkogneato> jep1, no private message here
[12:06] <Remo_Ad> Hi all, I got a problem with getline from <stdio.h>, some program uses it as type bool, but /usr/include/bits/stdio.h says  __STDIO_INLINE _IO_ssize_t getline (char **__lineptr, size_t *__n, FILE *__stream)  and I get a type mismatch there. This seems to have worked half a year ago, what happened since then? SDL-dev 1.2.11
[12:06] <vox754> Huffameg, pft! terminal, easy thing!
[12:06] <nico_> well, how usefull is it to make a ubuntu USB drive anyway
[12:06] <Remo_Ad> of cours e I mean while compilation using gcc
[12:06] <Huffameg> vox754: probably, but i have to learn it somehow..
[12:06] <mwe> nico_: it's just for copying the files. most of the steps will be exactly the same
[12:07] <mwe> nico_: very useful
[12:07] <lack> vox754: No, I'm actually being serious.  I am not a ubuntu user, but was asked "Will this software of yours run on Ubuntu".  I know it works with the 3.x series of compiler, so I thought I'd ask here to see what the "default" gcc version is, and if it's possible to easily get a 3.x compiler in Ubuntu 7.04.
[12:07] <jep1> inkogneato, so where?
[12:07] <sx66> coo
[12:07] <nico_> mwe: for helping to poor basterds that are still running windows
[12:07] <mwe> nico_: I ended up making a custom slax stick instead, though.
[12:07] <fy1> could somebody help me out with dist-upgrade problem? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25451/
[12:07] <mwe> nico_: my laptop has no CD so you can image it's been useful for me
[12:07] <nico_> mwe: yeah that's usefull
[12:08] <TitanP4> hi wonder if some one can help converting rpm to deb
[12:08] <vox754> lack, not sure, but I think it should be possible. I think the gcc 4.x has been around since Dapper.
[12:08] <mwe> nico_: if you put ntfs-3g on it can be very useful for certain windows related tasks as well. plus you can carry linux around in your key ring ;)
[12:08] <nico_> mwe: but is it possible for example to install ubuntu on my USB drive, install beryl, configure it an run it just like a normal machine?
[12:09] <nico_> mwe: if i save something on my desktop, it will be there next time i boot it?
[12:09] <mwe> nico_: yes if you're willing to put some work into it
[12:09] <vox754> lack, maybe you should try using yourself the gcc 4.x, although of course I have no clue what your program does.
[12:09] <killown> how I do to convert images .icns?
[12:09] <killown> Oh  stop flood
[12:09] <TitanP4> can anyone help me converting rpm to deb
[12:10] <Huffameg> okay. my question will then be: how can i learn the commands in terminal?
[12:10] <TheCougar> kitche: i've looked though mount and can't find the mount for the sd card. its still not working when i reinsert it
[12:10] <mwe> nico_: no not by default but you could make two partitions and save your stuff on the second one
[12:10] <lack> vox754: Yes, if we had time to invest in that project I'm sure getting it to work with 4.x would be the first thing on our list :)
[12:10] <nico_> 2 partitions on my usb-drive
[12:10] <mwe> nico_: just make a small second partition
[12:10] <mwe> nico_: 50 megs or so if you don't need to store movies or such things ;)
[12:10] <nico_> mwe: and what if i would use the ubuntu installer to install ubuntu on my usb drive
[12:11] <mwe> nico_: that won't work I think
[12:11] <nico_> hm
[12:11] <vox754> killown, you need to be more specific than that. Tell us what are those, icons?   Try the Gimp and then come back, don't bother asking vague questions?!
[12:11] <mwe> nico_: the howto you found seems good enough
[12:12] <mwe> nico_: just add a second partition
[12:12] <nico_> that would be cool. a USB-linux drive where you can save settings and load them again next time, for example, make a bookmark in mozilla
[12:12] <nico_> ok
[12:12] <eyemean> is any1 very familiar with parallels?
[12:12] <killown> vox754 gimp does not support file image .icns
[12:12] <nico_> the howto also discribes a second partition
[12:12] <mwe> nico_: that's possible
[12:12] <UAEmirates> duh
[12:13] <mwe> nico_: you could make /home the second partition
[12:13] <nico_> indeed
[12:13] <mwe> nico_: I would take some work but not too bad I think
[12:13] <nico_> mwe: btw i have a 1gb USB stick
[12:13] <dts> will --no-autocommit speed up big inserts?
[12:13] <UAEmirates> i found this "  Capabilities: <available only to root> " on sound card
[12:13] <mwe> nico_: that's fine
[12:14] <mwe> nico_: 700 for the root and stuff and 300 for /home. that's plenty.
[12:14] <nico_> mwe: hm tiey are using the live CD. i guess the feisty install disk will do
[12:14] <cables> Is there a way to reduce Ubuntu's tendency to use RAM for HD cache? I'm running it in VirtualBox on a system with very limited memory, so if I could get the virtualized Ubuntu to use less RAM, I'd be much better off.
[12:15] <jepp> inkogneato, doesn't work :(
[12:15] <winston> hello, recently i added a 3800 gts nvidia to my computer and the power supply was not enough. does anyone have advice on buying a new power supply and specifically what specs i should look for? i know it should have more wattage than my last one, but im not sure exactly how much.
[12:15] <mwe> nico_: probably

[12:18] <nico_> aargh
[12:18] <fy1> what to do when dist-upgrade breaks??  I'm desperate :(
[12:18] <nico_> useless uboto bot
[12:19] <lo4fer> does the "restricted drivers" menu simply refer to drivers that are closed source?
[12:19] <Amigunas> hi
[12:19] <nico_> hm, they dont do live CD's anymore?
[12:19] <Amigunas> How can I install PEAR modules?
[12:20] <BlueDevil> when i install the kernel package i just build it complains that it can't find files in /lib/firmware/<kernel version>
[12:20] <BlueDevil> why? who puts those files there?
[12:20] <Amigunas> PEAR 1.4.9 seems to be installed on my Edgy Eft system
[12:20] <Amigunas> and I need many modules
[12:20] <BlueDevil> it does that when it tries to generate the initrd
[12:21] <vox754> !headers
[12:21] <ubotu> To install the Linux (kernel) headers, open a terminal and: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) To install headers for libraries, you need the accompanying -dev packages

[12:21] <luisbg> is there an alternative to apm? when isntalling ibam got problems because apm doesn't seam to exist
[12:22] <nico_> mwe: it is possible to mount the ISO instead of burning and booting it?
[12:23] <vox754> nico_, try mounting it with mount and it may give you an error, and the correct syntax which is something like "mount -o loop <file> /mount/point"
[12:24] <alienseer23> i just had to rebuild my computer, and ow my drive mount points have all gone away, how do I get them back?
[12:25] <TheCougar> I go to unmount my SDcard from ubuntu and it says "cannot unmount volume" then for details "umount: /media/mmcblk0p1 mount disagrees with the fstab" so where do i go from here?
[12:25] <psst> luisbg: perhaps it's just not in your path?
[12:25] <psst> luisbg: try locate apt-get
[12:26] <mwe> TheCougar: how are you trying to unmount it?
[12:26] <cows> does anyone know how to resume your laptop after you close it in terminal?
[12:26] <cows> i installed the command line version
[12:26] <colbert> Whenever I use sudo gedit in terminal, I randomly get errors about "cannot find dbus bus" but everything is functional.. any ideas what that means ?
[12:27] <nico_> mwe: mount file.iso /mnt/iso/ -t iso9660 -o ro,loop=/dev/loop0
[12:27] <mwe> nico_: mount -o loop file.iso /mnt/iso asuming dir /mnt/iso exists
[12:28] <mwe> nico_: and sudo if you don't have root access already
[12:28] <cows> does anyone know how to resume your laptops screen after you close it while its in console mode
[12:28] <alienseer23> I need to mount 3 partitions to their old mountpoints, and get this to happen o boot-up, how do I accomplish this?
[12:28] <pacman> Hi
[12:28] <vox754> cows, laptop-specific question, works for some, it doesn't for others
[12:28] <pooranimator> i hope this is not totally a noob question. Ubuntu limits my display resolution to 1024*768. Is there any way i can achieve more than that?
[12:28] <nico_> mwe: yep, and it works. i saved it as mountiso in /usr/bin
[12:28] <mwe> nico_: what you suggested would probably work as well, though.
[12:29] <luisbg> psst, fixed... it's a friends computer, he was doing the wrong stuff :S sorry
[12:29] <cows> vox754, wat you mean?
[12:29] <vox754> pooranimator, it is newb, yes it is possible, use the correct drivers
[12:29] <psst> he was doing the wrong stuff?  you gave him a fix?
[12:29] <Remo_Ad> I have got a problem with getline from <stdio.h>, some c source uses type bool getline(char *s, int size, FILE *fp); , but /usr/include/bits/stdio.h says  __STDIO_INLINE _IO_ssize_t getline (char **__lineptr, size_t *__n, FILE *__stream)  and I get a type mismatch there. This seems to have worked half a year ago, what happened since then? SDL-dev 1.2.11
[12:30] <cows> vox754, what do you mean laptop specific? i have a dell inspiron 1300
[12:30] <Scunizi> pooranimator, what kind of video card do you have?
[12:30] <vox754> cows, it really depends on your computer, hibernating and suspending doesn't work on all laptops, so you are better searching the forums for your specific model, maybe someone has already written a guide for it.
[12:30] <cows> vox754, so i can
[12:30] <tyler_d> here's the deal, nvidia 8800 with the restricted drivers, I have my tvout working, only problem now is that I want my taskbar and applications to show on my monitor, not all the way across onto the tv... anyone know how this might be done.. subnote: movies span across, want them to play fullscreen on the tv.
[12:30] <mwe> Remo_Ad: broken c program?
[12:30] <cows> vox754, i cant close my laptop while its in console? cause hibernating etc worked on windows
[12:30] <pooranimator> vox754 i have Ati Radeon x1650 pro. Where can i get the correct driver for Ubuntu?
[12:31] <vox754> !ati > pooranimator
[12:31] <cows> vox754, also the laptop is on .. i can hear the sound etc, its just the screen is off
[12:31] <Scunizi> pooranimator, which version of ubuntu are you using?
[12:31] <colbert> tyler_d: you need Xinerama or adjustments to already existing Xinerama setting(s), try #ubuntu-effects & #nvidia

[12:31] <Crav> I'm looking for an amarok script to integrate with conky, anyone know of one?
[12:31] <tyler_d> colbert: pardon?

[12:32] <vox754> cows, I tell you, it is laptop-specif, it depends on drivers, it is tricky. Unless the manufacturers cooperate, these stuff may never totally work reversed-engineered on Linux
[12:32] <cows> vox754, i have 1 more question. do you know how to connect a wireless card via terminal
[12:32] <mwe> Remo_Ad: that shouldn't be possible if the program follows the ansi standard
[12:32] <pooranimator> Scunizi, its 7.04 i guess
[12:32] <cows> vox754, like ifconfig eth1 essid="lol" etc//
[12:32] <colbert> tyler_d: join #ubuntu-effects, they helped me fix mine to do what you're asking
[12:32] <tyler_d> cows: twinview spans...
[12:32] <tyler_d> colbert: ty
[12:32] <mwe> Remo_Ad: at least not for something that common

[12:33] <Remo_Ad> mwe, all I see is that there they use bool getline, but getline as I know it returns the number of chars read including the delimiter character...
[12:33] <vox754> cows, most information to configure the card can be found in the manual "man iwconfig"  then read "man ifconfig"
[12:33] <avis> i bought a giga-byte DS3 motherboard with integrated video and i have a problem where the video locks up during the default gnome screensaver.  it simply rendered video useless.  i even killed the xserver with the junk at the bottom of my screen from leaving the screensaver running and it continued to have the junk at the bottom of the screen.  also when i play a video it will leave traces of the video behind depending on its screen position
[12:33] <cows> tyler_d, there are some settings that you can tweak to change the position
[12:33] <TheCougar> mwe: sorry for the late responce. i'm trying to unmount it by right clicking on it and going to unmount
[12:33] <Scunizi> pooranimator, ok.. Fiesty.. you need to look at xorg by getting to a terminal and typing "gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" that is the file that will show which driver is being used.
[12:33] <dragonfly> I currently have a raid-5 setup with mdadm, One of my drives was not working properly so i was trying to take it down (never messed with mdadm before) and ran mdadm with the --create flag and now i cant mount my raid, how can i mount it agian?
[12:33] <mwe> Remo_Ad: that's broken I think
[12:33] <cows> vox754, alright ill take a look , because i got the card working on linux with ndiswrapper but i want to test the driver that comes with the distro
[12:33] <Scunizi> pooranimator, also are u using an lcd monitor? or CRT
[12:34] <Remo_Ad> mwe: me too, okay, let's see what they MEANT to code...
[12:34] <TheCougar> ah it unmounts from terminal with the -f switch
[12:34] <pooranimator> vox754, do i get the linux driver? coz thats what is all there. no Ubuntu
[12:34] <pooranimator> Scunizi, I am using a lcd sony monitor
[12:34] <mwe> TheCougar: I don't know why it does that but did you manually add something to /etc/fstab?
[12:34] <cows> vox754, also i just remembered that when you close the laptop screen and you open it , it will resume but in locked mode. atm this is a fresh install so it has no gui
[12:34] <Scunizi> !ati | pooranimator
[12:34] <ubotu> pooranimator: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:35] <TheCougar> mwe: no i hadn't. also when i reinsert the sdcard it won't remount automaticly
[12:35] <mwe> TheCougar: maybe sudo umount /mnt/<mountpoint> in a console will work
[12:35] <vox754> pooranimator, I personally have no experience but follow a guide on the forums, lots of people have done it before
[12:35] <mon^rch> my window decorations dissapeared today and my terminal is just a blank white box... help please
[12:35] <Scunizi> pooranimator, if it's not a wide screen it should be 1280x1024 native.. right?
[12:35] <TheCougar> mwe: yeah that worked with the -f command auto remounting isn't working though
[12:35] <mwe> TheCougar: you removed it without unmounting it?
[12:35] <colbert> how can I display my IP address in terminal?
[12:35] <pooranimator> scunizi, yes
[12:35] <TheCougar> mwe: the first time then i restarted. this time i unmounted it then removed it waited and put it back in and it didn't remount
[12:36] <vox754> cows, which wireless card? Probably intel, broadcom or ralink.
[12:36] <Scunizi> pooranimator, have you opened xorg?
[12:36] <oipat> colbert: ifconfig ?
[12:36] <w00t_> hi i just took my nvidia card out and put my (stock) ati card back in....i fixed my xorg for it and now when i boot up my monitor doesnt pick up grub screen and i have to wait for something to boot until i see something...anyone have an idea to fix this??
[12:36] <cows> vox754, yea its broadcom 4318 i think
[12:36] <cows> vox754, i know it works cause i used it before on ubuntu
[12:36] <mwe> TheCougar: well I'd try commenting out the line in question in /etc/fstab and see what happens
[12:36] <colbert> oipat: yes but it only shows my network address (192.168.1.1), I am wondering how I can see my IP
[12:37] <vox754> cows, yeah, it should work with ndiswrapper but probably you can only get 11 Mbps with the included bcm43xx
[12:37] <mwe> TheCougar: maybe reboot to clear the confusion for ubuntu
[12:37] <avis> w00t_ i always see grub or lilo when i boot something
[12:37] <cows> vox754, so i dont need help setting up the card. but i want to know how to connect a wireless card via terminal.. before i used the network-admin
[12:37] <dragonfly> i need help mounting a old exsisting raid-5 setup that i accidently ran the --create switch on
[12:37] <TheCougar> mwe: yeah i rebooted and it would remount it then but not after it had been taken out and put back in
[12:37] <TheCougar> very strange
[12:37] <Ed[1] > vox754, do you get firmware not found errors at bootup? (use 'dmesg' to find it out)
[12:37] <cows> vox754, yea cause this wireless card sux. it's only goes up to 11
[12:37] <mwe> TheCougar: I'd try commenting out the line in question in /etc/fstab and see what happens
[12:37] <w00t_> avis: i dont know what goves...i think it maybe with this monitor (it uses digital cord)...perhaps i try without "auto select input" on

[12:38] <avis> w00t_ i think its odd.  i think it should at least display the output of grub
[12:38] <nico_> is it possible on ubuntu to install software to a second partition?

[12:39] <Yanas> 5 buttons mouse support? please?
[12:39] <krips> yanas
[12:39] <krips> configure ur xorg.conf
[12:39] <pooranimator> Scunizi, and it also took me to a xorg.con window
[12:40] <krips> in the section input device
[12:40] <vox754> cows, you are confusing me... do you, or do you not how to connect through the terminal with "iwconfig" and "ifconfig"
[12:40] <Scunizi> pooranimator, ok... so in the xorg.conf window you're looking at a bunch of stuff?
[12:40] <Saraphim> Greetings! I'm looking for some plugin to gaim to show in my IMs the song that I am currently playing. Does anyone know of any?
[12:40] <TheCougar> mwe: what is the command to edit at the prompt? "edit" just returns "unknown mime-type for "fstab"
[12:40] <vox754> Saraphim, no
[12:40] <mwe> TheCougar: sudo nano /etc/fstab
[12:41] <pooranimator> Scunizi, nope its all blank
[12:41] <avis> TheCougar there are many commands nano works great though
[12:41] <Saraphim> vox754: There is none?
[12:41] <mwe> TheCougar: then ctrl-x to exit. it will ask you to save
[12:41] <frojnd> does anyone know what function in writer would change column text into text that would be in line, fited to the page and not in the column??
[12:41] <vox754> Saraphim, I don't know. I just answered you I don't know.
[12:41] <Saraphim> vox754: Well, thanks. ^^
[12:41] <TheCougar> mwe ok trying that
[12:42] <mwe> TheCougar: just locate the line mentioning your sd card
[12:42] <Scunizi> pooranimator, that's really weird...  can you use "Places/home folder/filesystem/etc/X11/xorg.conf" from the top menu and look for xorg.conf. Double click to see if it will open.
[12:42] <nielsbosworth> I'm trying to get video to work in firefox. I can watch flash and wmv based embedded video without problem, but I cant' watch quicktime.
[12:43] <TheVault> I need some help doing a dual monitors. I have a Dell Inspiron E1405 Laptop with Intel 945GM Chipset and I was wondering if someone could help me setup an external monitor that I have?
[12:43] <Saraphim> nielsbosworth: What I did was set up vlc to be the default player for all video types in firefox.
[12:44] <Saraphim> nielsbosworth: I recommend you get the plugin MediaPlayerConnectivity (do a google on it) for firefox and install vlc via synoptic.
[12:44] <nielsbosworth> I changed from VLC, as it wasn't working and mplayer was recommended on the ubuntu site - i'll give it at try, though :-)
[12:45] <Saraphim> nielsbosworth: Are you sure that the vlc player was even called from firefox when it didn't work? It only worked once I got it set as default player in firefox.. You also need to install mozilla-vlc (or some such) from synaptic.
[12:45] <TheCougar> mwe: awesome worked perfectly. its now detecting the card when i insert it
[12:45] <TheVault> Can someone please help me setup dual monitors?
[12:45] <n00sensation> hello guys, anyone know about "expect" or "autoexpect"
[12:45] <Scunizi> frojnd, is this in Open Office?
[12:45] <DM|> anyone know the crossover channel for cxoffice?
[12:46] <mwe> TheCougar: good. I don't know how it got there though.
[12:46] <TheCougar> and I can unsafely remove the card and reinsert again and it works still. thanks again
[12:46] <IndyGunFreak> TheVault: dual monitors is difficult, what type of card do you have?
[12:46] <mwe> TheCougar: great
[12:46] <n00sensation> I installed expect but it didn't install "autoexpect:
[12:46] <TheCougar> mwe: the card was still in the sd slot when I installed ubuntu so it probably added it to fstab
[12:46] <mwe> TheCougar: ah
[12:46] <TheVault> IndyGunFreak: Hey bro. Ummm in my laptop I have a Intel Integrated 945gm Chipset
[12:47] <nielsbosworth> Saraphim: no' I'm not quite sure  :-) I'm reinstalling vlc now
[12:47] <brk3> hi, i have macromedia director which runs under wine very well, but just wondering are there any good linux alternatives?
[12:47] <IndyGunFreak> TheVault: what are you trying to do, set up a dual display with your laptop and a monitor?
[12:47] <IndyGunFreak> never did that, sorry.
[12:47] <Saraphim> nielsbosworth: Ok, give it a shot. I'll be here for a while and I'll be happy to try and help you through it. No guarantees though. :)
[12:47] <TheCougar> mwe: im finding the install can go wrong if you do certain things:) i ran the live cd for about 4 days before installing on the hard drive and I had even updated the drivers while running on the live cd for the video card. doing that caused xwindows to crash after the install was done
[12:47] <TheCougar> couldn't get it back and running till i did another clean install
[12:47] <TheVault> IndyGunFreak: Yup, thats what i'm trying to do
[12:47] <IndyGunFreak> TheVault: no clue,... sorry...
[12:48] <cambo> IndyGunFreak i am trying to do the dual display thing too...
[12:48] <nielsbosworth> Saraphim: Shure thing. Thanks
[12:48] <TheVault> Does anyone else know how to setup Dual Monitors?
[12:48] <IndyGunFreak> TheVault: what type of video card is in your PC?
[12:48] <NukeTWA> I used the supergrub cd to get my PC to automatically boot to windows. Does anyone know how to get grub back on there?
[12:48] <IndyGunFreak> cambo: what type of card?
[12:48] <pooranimator> Scunizi, I went to Places>Home Folder all i can see are some icons with a lock sign on them. There is no filesystem in HomeFolder. I hope i didn't go somewhere else
[12:48] <PriceChild> !away > rory|away
[12:48] <cambo> ATI Mobility X1400
[12:48] <Saraphim> nielsbosworth: You also need to install mozilla-plugin-vlc from synaptic. Just checked the name.
[12:48] <TheVault> IndyGunFreak: Intel Integrated 945GM Chipset
[12:48] <cambo> I have installed the ATI restricted driver
[12:48] <Bacon|ubuntu> hey, is hd0 a generic location?
[12:48] <TheVault> IndyGunFreak: Intel Integrated is what kind of graphics card it is
[12:49] <IndyGunFreak> TheVault: its probably gonna be difficult to do with Intel Graphis chips.
[12:49] <TheVault> IndyGunFreak: Man I just get stuck with the crap end of the deal having Intel Integrated lol
[12:49] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[12:49] <eric> so, i just upgraded to feisty, and now x wont start. it says nvidia module failed to load. i searched this problem but nothing seems to be very helpful. can anybody help me?
[12:49] <Scunizi> pooranimator, can you see my pm?
[12:50] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak, is Hd0 a generic location?
[12:50] <IndyGunFreak> generic?... i dont think so.
[12:50] <Bacon|ubuntu> Remember my predicament?
[12:50] <TheVault> IndyGunFreak: I mean once I installed the 915resolution, it corrected my display quickly. I did not have to edit the file like I normally would. Feisty Fawn is the best and everything is almost automated :D
[12:50] <cambo> Bacon|ubuntu what do you mean by generic?
[12:50] <Bacon|ubuntu> Well, I didn't want grub to install over my vista loader
[12:50] <pooranimator> Scunizi, yes
[12:50] <starter2> he, Im having a problem, i got host ubuntu and guest winXP on virtual box and when im trying to play Counter Strike My mouse goes insain everywhere and OpenGL isnt supported, can anyone help me?
[12:50] <Bacon|ubuntu> so I removed the vista HD al-togther
[12:50] <TheVault> IndyGunFreak: Now just trying to setup my external monitor so I can enjoy full experience and more workspace
[12:51] <Scunizi> pooranimator, go there.
[12:51] <IndyGunFreak> TheVault: good luck..
[12:51] <TheVault> IndyGunFreak: Yeah, I'm going to need it!
[12:51] <TheCougar> starter2: sounds like you should change your display settings in counter strike
[12:51] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: so you have no hard drive w/ vista currently connected to your harddrive?
[12:51] <Saraphim> Bacon|ubuntu: If you removed a hard disk your drive order might have been altered.
[12:51] <sammydog> anyone got any ideas why my audio cd player won't play cds?
[12:52] <TheVault> Can anyone else assist me on setting up dual monitors. I really want more space and enjoy more experience with Ubuntu :D
[12:52] <pooranimator> Scunizi, i'm there
[12:52] <Saraphim> sammydog: Is the cable connected to your cd-drive from your sound card?
[12:52] <sammydog> xmms won't do nothing, kaffeine and amarok spin it but make no sound
[12:52] <Scunizi> pooranimator, type something.
[12:52] <sammydog> Saraphim tha'ts a good question but I know it works in Windows
[12:52] <NukeTWA> I used the supergrub cd to get my PC to automatically boot to windows. Does anyone know how to get grub back on there?
[12:53] <Saraphim> sammydog: There's a difference between it reading the disc digitally and sending it through your computer to your sound card so to speak, and it reading it analogue and sending the sound directly to your sound card.
[12:53] <Scunizi> pooranimator, we're not connecting.. I'm on xchat. doesn't matter.
[12:53] <pooranimator> Scunizi, type where?
[12:53] <Mr_Awesome> is there any way to get the nvidia module working with feisty?
[12:53] <dawn_chorus> NukeTWA, should be under the Linux > Advanced options.
[12:53] <Saraphim> sammydog: You might find an option in xmms to change which method it uses. Gimme a sec and I'll install xmms and check if there's such an option.
[12:53] <starter2> TheCougar, help on that, you mean resolution?
[12:53] <Scunizi> pooranimator, click my nick on the left under #ubuntu if you're using xchat
[12:53] <IndyGunFreak> NukeTWA: you'll probably need to use the sgd to reinstall grub..
[12:53] <pooranimator> Scunizi, I got all ur pms though
[12:53] <TheVault> Can anyone please help me setup dual monitors?
[12:53] <NukeTWA> dawn_chorus: What option?
[12:54] <sammydog> Saraphim everything seems to be connected
[12:54] <dawn_chorus> NukeTWA, it's an advanced Linux option.  If you'll wait I'll boot my laptop into it and find out.
[12:54] <pooranimator> Scunizi, i did n i got all ur pms, seems like ur not getting mine
[12:54] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak, I finally tried to install ubuntu without even having a windows partition harddrive, and grub wouldn't install cause it was looking for hd0 and couldn't find it.
[12:54] <Saraphim> sammydog: There was a cable from your cd-rom directly to your sound card?
[12:54] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: i see.
[12:54] <Scunizi> pooranimator, that's right.. haven't see any
[12:55] <chohmann> TheVault: This may help. http://blog.dotkam.com/index.php/2007/05/18/dual-monitor-on-ubuntu-704-feisty-fawn-nc2400-with-intel-945gm/
[12:55] <sammydog> Saraphim no there's an ide cable, a power cable and some skinny cable that goes to the mobo
[12:55] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: well did the install comnplete?
[12:55] <Bacon|ubuntu> no, fatal error
[12:55] <TheVault> chohmann: Alrighty, reading now
[12:55] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: ok.
[12:55] <Bacon|ubuntu> if I wanted to point the grub install to sda, do I designate it to sda?
[12:55] <Mr_Awesome> can anybody help me get x started back up? im not too familiar with the command line...
[12:55] <Saraphim> sammydog: the skinny cable is probably the sound cable. Is your sound cable to your speakers connected to a pci sound card or to a port in the motherboard?
[12:55] <dawn_chorus> NukeTWA, Advanced > Grub
[12:55] <GenNMX> Mr_Awesome: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm start
[12:56] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: yeah, you could try that.
[12:56] <NukeTWA> IndyGunFreak: I tried using its restore grub command but it didn't work
[12:56] <sammydog> Saraphim I believe it goes to a pci soundcard
[12:56] <Saraphim> sammydog: Which is the same card your speakers are connected to?
[12:56] <sammydog> Saraphim: yes
[12:56] <TheCougar> starter2: no there is a section in counter strike to change what video modes it is using. you can change it from openGL to directx and software. try software if that works then experiment with direct x and th eothers. I do not where the options all are since its been so long
[12:56] <Saraphim> sammydog: Okay, fire up xmms please, go into options and find the audio plugins
[12:56] <dawn_chorus> NukeTWA, once you go to Advanced > Grub, you'll see "Restore GRUB in the Hard Disk (MBR)."
[12:56] <IndyGunFreak> NukeTWA: well, you'll probaby need to reinstall grub from scratch
[12:57] <Saraphim> sammydog: Audio I/O plugins to be precise.
[12:57] <Mr_Awesome> GenNMX: i need to solve the issue with the nvidia module first...
[12:57] <starter2> TheCougar, i got that part, i am in software, any way i can make opengl available?
[12:57] <GenNMX> Mr_Awesome: Try dpkg-reconfigure xorg-server
[12:57] <sammydog> Saraphim: I don't see it under the "Options" menu
[12:57] <NukeTWA> IndyGunFreak: how do I do that?
[12:58] <Saraphim> sammydog: Sorry.. Options->preferences
[12:58] <IndyGunFreak> NukeTWA: you got me, the super grub disk is fairly well documented on its website.
[12:58] <sammydog> ok gotcha
[12:58] <IndyGunFreak> NukeTWA: try google.
[12:58] <Saraphim> sammydog: now doubleclick CD Audio Player under Audio I/O plugins
[12:58] <sammydog> CD Audio Player 1.2.10
[12:58] <sammydog> and configure?
[12:58] <Saraphim> sammydog: Yep, double click or configure
[12:58] <NukeTWA> IndyGunFreak: yea theres only two sites on google about Supergrub and neither helps
[12:58] <pooranimator> Scunizi, I clicked on "Places" which is near Applications on top of the screen, then went to Home Folder..... ami i doing what u r looking for? if not plz let me know
[12:59] <IndyGunFreak> NukeTWA: sorry, i'm not gonna be much more help
[12:59] <Mr_Awesome> GenNMX: apparently package "xorg-server" isnt installed
[12:59] <Saraphim> sammydog: In there you can click Check Drive
[12:59] <Scunizi> pooranimator, that's good.. now look on the left of the new box..look for File system
[12:59] <Saraphim> sammydog: It'll probably say something about a non-existant drive.
[12:59] <NukeTWA> dawn_chorus: I already tried that but it didn't work
[12:59] <Saraphim> sammydog: Correct?
[12:59] <sammydog> "failed to check directory /mnt/cdrom"
[12:59] <PriceChild> Mr_Awesome, its xserver-xorg
[01:00] <Saraphim> sammydog: Try to change the "directory" bar to read /media/cdrom0 instead of /mnt/cdrom
[01:01] <sammydog> Saraphim it's reading the CD drive now but no sound :(
[01:01] <ichouf>  DCC SEND C:\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
[01:01] <PriceChild> jrib, you can take it :)
[01:01] <Saraphim> sammydog: now try setting it to Digital audio extraction
[01:01] <jrib> oh fun
[01:01] <Stormx2> :)
[01:01] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: did you figure it out?
[01:01] <ichouf> lol
[01:01] <pooranimator> Scunizi, cool i got it, now there are a lot of things in xorg.conf window
[01:02] <Saraphim> sammydog: Actually no, I think I know what's wrong. What does the "device" bar read?
[01:02] <sammydog> /dev/cdrom
[01:02] <sammydog> the equalizer thing's going now but still no audio
[01:02] <Saraphim> sammydog: Could you please open a console and type into it "cat /etc/fstab | grep cdrom0" and write it back to me?
[01:03] <rcc> is there any way to prevent a process from being swapped?
[01:03] <Scunizi> pooranimator, yes.. look for Section "Device" and in there look for "Identifier" that will name the driver that's being used.
[01:03] <sammydog> /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom iso9660,udf noauto,users,exec,ro 0 0
[01:03] <sammydog> it's cdrom not cdrom0 for whatever reason
[01:03] <kitche> rcc:;;;; umm you can make linux not use any swap unless needed but for your question not really
[01:03] <kitche> stupid key got stuck :(
[01:03] <Saraphim> sammydog: Okay, please change the Directory setting accordingly.
[01:04] <rcc> er
[01:04] <sammydog> i think xmms is finding the device fine but there's just no sound for some reason
[01:04] <bruenig_> how can I adjust screen brightness
[01:04] <rcc> is there a way to make linux avoid using swap?
[01:04] <sammydog> rcc yeah make your swap partition 1kb
[01:04] <Saraphim> sammydog: It might be a mixer problem then. Try changing the volume control setting to no mixer or cd-rom drive.
[01:04] <kitche> rcc: man tune2fs will tell you sicne I m not sure myself
[01:04] <pooranimator> Scunizi, yeap it says Identifier	 "Generic Video Card"	Driver "vesa"	BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
[01:05] <Elwell> Anyone got a URL to kickstart docs for feisty?
[01:05] <cypher1> rcc, swapoff
[01:05] <sammydog> that option is only available under analog
[01:05] <rcc> there was some sysctl way to control swapiness
[01:05] <rcc> wasn't there?
[01:05] <S0me1> Did anyone know good book about Ubuntu 4 sysadmin?
[01:05] <Yanas> Anyone know a good 5 button mouse setup tut?
[01:05] <sammydog> still no sound
[01:05] <Scunizi> pooranimator, now we're gettin' somewhere.. I'll ask the bot for the right page on ati and we'll go from there..
[01:05] <cypher1> rcc, there is a command line swapoff, not sure of any sysctl
[01:05] <Scunizi> !ati
[01:05] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:05] <Saraphim> sammydog: Try right clicking the sound volume icon on your task bar and choosing open volume control
[01:06] <kitche> rcc: probably I never use sysctl in Linux so I wouldn't know the command for it
[01:06] <darkshiryu> hello someone know how to open a .docx file?
[01:06] <Saraphim> sammydog: Does the Cd setting look proper?
[01:06] <sammydog> you mean kmix?

[01:06] <blueacidfrog> blueacidfrog /NETSTREAM eth0
[01:06] <Saraphim> sammydog: But there should be a specific bar for Cd output
[01:06] <Pir8> I am running into a few problems trying to set it up.
[01:06] <gnychis_> i am trying to do a server (minimal) install but it cannot find my wireless network device, it is atheros based... do i need to specify any special options when booting the install?
[01:07] <pooranimator> Scunizi, thanx. What link should i click on?
[01:07] <eyemean> hi im slightly confused about using parallels, tried to install it on windows but it wanted 8gig free space
[01:07] <sammydog> Saraphim not that I can see but every bar is up to the top
[01:07] <blueacidfrog> anyone know how to work this X-sys thing ?
[01:07] <Scunizi> pooranimator, I'll do it again look for a line posted by ubotu
[01:07] <blueacidfrog> i want to display os info
[01:07] <eyemean> i have dual boot, windows xp and ubuntu 7.04, i want to access winxp in ubuntu, thats all
[01:07] <Scunizi> !ati
[01:07] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:07] <Saraphim> sammydog: I'm not familiar with kmix but there might be a preference dialog somewhere where you can enable the CD settings
[01:07] <mike_> gnychis It detected my atheros card
[01:07] <Scunizi> pooranimator, right above a few posts
[01:07] <Saraphim> sammydog: Otherwise I'm afraid I'm all out of ideas. :(
[01:08] <Bacon|ubuntu> I need some help on where to install grub
[01:08] <Bacon|ubuntu> someone help me?
[01:08] <Scunizi> pooranimator, you might have to right mouse click and choose FF
[01:08] <kitche> eyemean: that would be hard unless you convert that xp install into a vmware image
[01:08] <bayziders> How do you set a wallpaper in Fluxbox?
[01:08] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: if your windows drive is disconnected, I'd just install it to wherever it wants to, and don't worry about it.
[01:09] <sammydog> Saraphim I knocked out the audio cable while I was checking the sound card
[01:09] <nielsbosworth> Saraphim: Still there? I got a load of pages working, but not the one i wanted :-/ could you do me the favor of trying out http://events.apple.com.edgesuite.net/d7625zs/event/ to see if the video plays?
[01:09] <darkshiryu> hello someone know how to open a .docx file?
[01:09] <sammydog> so now it works thanks for the help!
[01:09] <Saraphim> sammydog: Oh no :P
[01:09] <eyemean> kitche: if i convert it to a vmware image can i still log into it normally?
[01:09] <pooranimator> Scunizi, is this the link u r talking abou: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto ?
[01:09] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak, nope I got the error on hd0
[01:09] <Saraphim> nielsbosworth: Yep, hang on.
[01:09] <Scunizi> pooranimator, yes
[01:09] <IndyGunFreak> oh ok.
[01:09] <Bacon|ubuntu> So would I put sd0, or sda?
[01:09] <pooranimator> Scunizi, I'm there
[01:09] <IndyGunFreak> well, you could try sda
[01:09] <Scunizi> pooranimator, do you have a Raedon card?
[01:09] <kitche> eyemean: not a clue really but I know that you must convert it into a vmware image for vmware to use that install
[01:10] <bayziders> IndyGunFreak: I rember you from before, you told be about Fluxbuntu. Do you know how to set wallpapers in Fluxbox?
[01:10] <Saraphim> nielsbosworth: Nope, doesn't play for me either. Hmm!
[01:10] <IndyGunFreak> bayziders: no clue..., sorry, i don't mess with it much anymore.
[01:10] <darkshiryu> nobody knows how to open a .docx file?
[01:10] <bayziders> ahwell
[01:10] <Scunizi> pooranimator, in the terminal window type lspci.  All lower case.
[01:10] <bayziders> To google
[01:10] <snikker> how can i see what files i've deleted with "rm -rf *  *.*" command?
[01:10] <pooranimator> Scunizi, yeap its a Ati Radeon x1650 pro
[01:10] <IndyGunFreak> bayziders: did you figure it out, or did you just boot fluxbuntu?
[01:10] <Yanas> 5 button mouse support anyone?
[01:10] <Scunizi> pooranimator, good
[01:10] <Bacon|ubuntu> nope sda failed
[01:10] <vox754> darkshiryu, what is that?!
[01:10] <Saraphim> sammydog: Let me know if you have any luck after reconnecting it. :)
[01:10] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: well, sdo?
[01:10] <nielsbosworth> eyemean: You can run it as a raw disk, but that's quite hard to get working... I've been trying for a month and no cigar
[01:11] <PriceChild> snikker, everything in the directory you were in and beyond, not before though
[01:11] <darkshiryu> the format of office 2007 vox754
[01:11] <sammydog> Saraphim, it's mission accomplished
[01:11] <jrib> snikker: you've deleted everything that does not start with a '.'
[01:11] <darkshiryu> but i cant open it
[01:11] <TheCougar> does ubuntu server have a mail server (like exchange) built into it?
[01:11] <bayziders> IndyGunFreak: I had to update my menu, it was one quick command sudo update-menu
[01:11] <darkshiryu> in ubuntu
[01:11] <vox754> darkshiryu, impossible, too obscure, closed source
[01:11] <IndyGunFreak> bayziders: lol, go figure
[01:11] <eyemean> hmmm doesnt sound to good for a newby like me, hahahah
[01:11] <Scunizi> pooranimator, that first page that opened from the link, there's another link under ATI (fglrx) Driver called BinaryDriverHowto/ATI.. click that.
[01:11] <nielsbosworth> Saraphim: Ok! but thanks, every other page i've tried works now, so somethings right :-D
[01:11] <Saraphim> nielsbosworth: Maybe there's some strange new quicktime feature in there that VLC doesn't support? Actually I've no idea! Sorry I couldn't help you out. :(
[01:11] <bayziders> IndyGunFreak: This would be the best desktop enviorment ever if I could use beryl ='(
[01:11] <sammydog> Saraphim: now if only I can figure out why I get no audio in Amarok, KsCD, etc
[01:11] <eyemean> ok thanx alot guys, i'd rather not risk messing it all up, i dont know enough about linux to sort any problems out.
[01:12] <eyemean> thanx again guys
[01:12] <pooranimator> Scunizi, i got a lot of stuff in the terminal window after the lspci command. I am in the BinaryDriverHowto....page
[01:12] <Saraphim> sammydog: Well, it's probably an issue if them not trying the right device and mount path as well!
[01:12] <sammydog> the equalizer's going and the cd's spinning in amarok so it's reading the device
[01:12] <IndyGunFreak> bayziders: well, the point of flux, is for pc's with very limited hardware... beryl is extremely resource heavy, so its kind of an oxymoron to put beryl on flux
[01:12] <snikker> PriceChild, jrib: i've run rm in the wrong dir, i've do a CTRL-C and i want know what i've deleted...
[01:12] <nielsbosworth> Saraphim: s'allright. Thanks for the help :-)
[01:12] <PriceChild> snikker, what directory were you in?
[01:12] <Scunizi> pooranimator, yea.. lspci will list all kinds of stuff. no matter you already know you have a radeon card..
[01:12] <Saraphim> sammydog: You should try rummaging through their settings to see if it's going analog or digital. I'm afraid I don't know those programs very well so you're on your own on those.
[01:12] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, oxymoron, damn!
[01:13] <Mr_Awesome> so it possible to get nvidia working with feisty?
[01:13] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: lol, whats wrong with that?
[01:13] <sammydog> thanks Saraphim I think I can hack it from here
[01:13] <Stormx2> Guys, where is the data for the gnome menus actually stored?
[01:13] <snikker> PriceChild: my home
[01:13] <Saraphim> sammydog: Sure thing, happy to be of service. Good luck and have a nice evening. :)
[01:13] <bayziders> IndyGunFreak: I love it because of how smooth and small it looks. The tiny dock type thing,all my apps in my right click. Its a great interface.
[01:13] <PriceChild> snikker, then anything in your home directory could be gone
[01:13] <PriceChild> snikker, that includes settings and work
[01:13] <bayziders> Now slap on some eyecandy and I am happy
[01:13] <Scunizi> pooranimator, just follow the directions and you should have an installed "restricted" driver.
[01:13] <Anonym> hi guys
[01:13] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, I need a dictionary for that, wait while I read
[01:13] <Anonym> i need help plz

[01:14] <ikonia> Anonym: ask a question then
[01:14] <Jordan_U> Anonym, no
[01:14] <snikker> PriceChild: but it's not possible to know what i've deleted?
[01:14] <Anonym> how can i register on this server
[01:14] <Anonym> ?
[01:14] <PriceChild> snikker, look at it. what's missing is what you've deleted
[01:14] <Scunizi> pooranimator, yep.. then under the commands there's one more thing.
[01:14] <Jordan_U> !register | Anonym
[01:14] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: counter-productive, might have been a better way to put it.
[01:14] <PriceChild> !register | Anonym

[01:15] <Anonym> :)
[01:15] <pooranimator> Scunizi, I did. after typing the 1st command many stuff came then i did the second line command and that also showed a lot of stuff
[01:15] <PriceChild> snikker, you deleted it using -rf That is telling your computer to ignore if you're being stupid
[01:15] <Anonym> look ... i press on register and type username and pass but nothing happens
[01:15] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: did you figure it is.
[01:15] <ikonia> Anonym: join #freenode and ask for help
[01:16] <PriceChild> snikker, don't use force, or recursive, or sudo without thinking.
[01:16] <Scunizi> pooranimator, yep it install some things.. nice to know you don't need a special "key" number.
[01:16] <chohmann> TheCougar: Try setting a solid background

[01:16] <TheCougar> chohmann: i was more so hoping to speed up the ubuntu's ability to display the server to match that of xps rather then mess around with the server
[01:17] <snikker> PriceChild: yes you are right, but i tough to be in another directory... i'm a little bit tired...
[01:17] <pooranimator> Scunizi, yea it didn't ask me for anyting. After i followed both the commands...this is the last line i got "Setting up xorg-driver-fglrx (7.1.0-8.34.8+2.6.20.5-16.28) ..."

[01:18] <tck> quick question, i could have sworn in previous ubuntu versions
[01:18] <chohmann> TheCougar:Which options have you tried on the performance tab of the terminal server client?
[01:18] <Scunizi> pooranimator, on the web page after those two commands it says "Open the restricted drivers......" do you see that?
[01:18] <snikker> PriceChild: i hope it too...
[01:18] <tck> ide drives showed up as /dev/hda etc..
[01:18] <tck> now they are /dev/sda?
[01:18] <ikonia> tck:  not in all ubuntu releases
[01:18] <bayziders> IndyGunFreak: I just realized I have no GUI file browser either...
[01:18] <ikonia> tck: the new version of libata is now in 2.6.20
[01:18] <TheCougar> chohmann: enable bitmap caching, and do not send motion events.
[01:19] <tck> ikonia, but they were in previous ones right, as hda?
[01:19] <Saraphim> tck: Yes.
[01:19] <ikonia> tck: in ubuntu 6.06 yes - edgy swapped over
[01:19] <IndyGunFreak> bayziders: i can't remember the name of the one for Flux.. i don't think its thunar
[01:19] <soyporti> does anyone knows how to changed the language in blender to spanish?
[01:19] <kitche> tck: you could still make it /dev/hda if you wish but a bit lengthy really
[01:19] <ikonia> IndyGunFreak: well remembereed

[01:19] <chohmann> TheCougar: Is the lag specific to certain apps or is it generally slow for all operations?

[01:20] <TeslaDave> Hi new to linux, allways learning, wondering what is the best way to set up my Ubuntu Fiesty machine so that I can SSH into it / connect remotely?

[01:20] <ikonia> still
[01:20] <tck> i'd just use the next avail. one say sda6
[01:20] <pooranimator> Scunizi, yeap it asks me whether i want to enable it or not. I said yes and it now wants me to restart. Do u think thats gonna solve the issue?
[01:20] <pedro_> hi, im trying to install beryl in my computer but when i execute beryl in the command line. it shows this error : Checking for XComposite extension               : failed
[01:20] <tck> and keep going down the chain
[01:20] <ikonia> tck: you got it
[01:20] <SlimeyPete> TeslaDave: use saptictoinstallopenssh-server
[01:20] <tck> pedro_, stick with compiz
[01:20] <kitche> tck: well sda6 would be the 6th partition on drive one
[01:20] <SlimeyPete> erm
[01:20] <TheCougar> chohmann: general slow. the screen takes a long time compared to xp to refresh
[01:20] <SlimeyPete> tesl

[01:21] <pedro_> tck , what do you mean?
[01:21] <Bacon|ubuntu> Looks like ubuntu took the base for the sda grub...
[01:21] <kitche> jimp: ask in #ubuntu+1 that's for gutsy support for now
[01:21] <ikonia> jimp: ubuntu_1 for dev chat
[01:21] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: well, thats good.
[01:21] <fastlove> hello
[01:21] <jimp> thanks
[01:21] <ikonia> jimp: although asking a dev version to work on a ps3 seems a bit agresssive
[01:21] <tck> pedro, compiz is installed by default
[01:22] <chohmann> TheCougar: Are all other things equal between the XP system and the linux system? Specifically, are they on the same network?
[01:22] <jimp> ikonia: I am aggressive :)
[01:22] <Scunizi> pooranimator, so far so good.. restart and see what happens.. but before you do that are you running a dual boot or do you have a live cd?
[01:22] <Tcl70> hello ?
[01:22] <tck> System > pref > desktop effects : just enable it
[01:22] <ikonia> Tcl70: yes?

[01:28] <blueacidfrog> and it didnt work
[01:29] <segagman> can i get it in ad/remove?
[01:29] <pooranimator> Scunizi, after the reboot it showed a msg on top telling me that Ubuntu is using the restricted driver andother stuff.
[01:29] <slackmagic> rabby:  take a look at your /etc/inputrc and set       set bell-style none
[01:29] <rabby_> thx
[01:29] <Scunizi> pooranimator, how's the resolution?
[01:29] <segagman> or syn pak manager?
[01:29] <gnychis_> i am trying to change the MAC address on my card during a minimal server install, but when i type "ifconfig down && ifconfig eth0 hw ether 00:... && ifconfig eth0 up"  it doesn't change the MAC... any ideas?

[01:30] <rabby_> tritium, no within kde
[01:30] <steveb> hey. just wondering - is it possible for apt to install packported stuff on a package by package basis? so say i needed one thing from backports but not other stuff. can i select that somewhere?
[01:30] <pooranimator> Scunizi, Well ubuntu tells me its using the restricted driver but the resolutio is same though
[01:30] <idefixx> segagman: forget that, my mistake. Its NOT kiba-dock you're looking for.
[01:31] <segagman> then what is it?
[01:31] <Scunizi> pooranimator, ok.. using the menu's on the top, choose System/Preferances/Screen Resolution and see if you can change it.
[01:31] <tritium> rabby_: in that case, edit ~/.inputrc, unless you want to make it system-wide
[01:31] <blueacidfrog> ikonia:  http://de.gentoo-wiki.com/Cebop_HEL_950 --> this is gentoo but does this work with ubuntu too ?

[01:33] <blueacidfrog> ikonia:  loool
[01:33] <pooranimator> Scunizi, i did but it shows the same thing as b4. I mean it gives me 3 options and 1024*768 is the highest
[01:33] <blueacidfrog> ikonia:  do you have a log or something that i can work with ?
[01:33] <julius> I got a problem with an external hard drive. I tried to save my /home on it a few month ago. But now I can't delete it. Check here : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25461/
[01:33] <ikonia> blueacidfrog: none of my information would help you
[01:33] <blueacidfrog> ok
[01:34] <Scunizi> pooranimator, ok another tact... make sure your xorg window is closed then cut and paste this line... sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak
[01:34] <gnychis_> i am trying to change the MAC address on my card during a minimal server install, but when i type "ifconfig down && ifconfig eth0 hw ether 00:... && ifconfig eth0 up"  it doesn't change the MAC... any ideas?

[01:35] <ikonia> gnychis he mac is normally hardcoded onto a chip
[01:35] <tominglis> if so, does anyone know how? is this something that will be backported?
[01:35] <idefixx> segagman: well i justed googled for it... its been some time since i used windows stuff like that. is objectdock this osx like dock bar or what?
[01:35] <Tcl70> Can any one refer me to a guide on how to fix the HUGE font in login screen ? or give me some info on how to do it ??? please ?
[01:35] <gnychis_> ikonia: ifconfig can switch it though
[01:35] <Scunizi> !splash
[01:35] <ubotu> To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.

[01:38] <idefixx> segagman: afaik both are not in ubuntu by default.
[01:38] <Scunizi> pooranimator, did you copy the line or type it?
[01:38] <pooranimator> Scunizi, i copied and then pasted it

[01:45] <crdlb> Mr_Awesome, so the package fails to download?
[01:45] <n2diy> Alysum: Audacity maybe?
[01:45] <post-pot> moonwatcher "ws 6/ player 2"  I have no idea what that could even be
[01:45] <rueben> Hello, does anyone know when there will be an update in the repository for MonoDevelop 0.14

[01:46] <pooranimator> 	Busid		"PCI:1:0:0"
[01:46] <moonwatcher> and use the skype client for windows
[01:46] <idefixx> Alysum: I use amarok and it manages covers etc., but from what i heared in here rythembox it does support covers somehow.
[01:46] <moonwatcher> as the linux version is horrible
[01:46] <post-pot> cyber_brain_mfkg : try #winehq

[01:47] <post-pot> moonwatcher : after 3.35 minutes exactly every time?
[01:47] <Mr_Awesome> jrib: it says i need to install the package linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-15-386, which does not seem to be available
[01:47] <jrib> Mr_Awesome: well that means you have the nvidia drivers installed.  How about 'apt-cache policy linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r)'?
[01:47] <Scunizi> pooranimator, look for the section that says "Section "Screen" "
[01:47] <cyber_brain_mfkg> post-pot: winehq????i use cedega!!!is that a problem???

[02:00] <matt__> can anyone do "sudo apt-get install vdrift" vdrift is that racing game, looks cool, but when i try that, it tells me no installation candidate...
[02:00] <jrib> Mr_Awesome: np, I'd recommend doing a 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' to make sure everything got upgraded.  Read very carefully what it wants to do... ie don't let it remove hundreds of packages...

[02:03] <tetrimino> is anyone of you familiar to a game called True Combat: Elite?
[02:03] <kitche> tetrimino: sort of
[02:03] <aX|w> hey hey
[02:03] <tetrimino> i was just wondering if all the servers suck or if its just my connection
[02:04] <CTho> is there a VNC viewer with a more modern toolkit available?
[02:04] <Scunizi> pooranimator, ok.. cut and paste the contents of the link back into your xorg replacing everything that's there, then "save". http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25466/
[02:04] <CTho> the "remote desktop client", when using VNC, gives me old-school X scrollbars and doesn't full-screen ocmpletely (the gnome menu bar stays on top)
[02:04] <mage> xfce?
[02:05] <tetrimino> kitche: i was just wondering if all the servers suck or if its just my connection
[02:05] <mage> CTho: personally I like the windows clients in wine a bit better
[02:05] <CTho> mage: i've done that in the past.
[02:06] <kitche> tetrimino: not sure really haven't played it but I downloaded the linux gamer dvd so I might burn that and play some games
[02:06] <Pwall> hey guys, i'm updating my ubuntu to 7.04 its asking to prepare disk space is there anyway i can have 2 partitions?
[02:06] <CTho> mage: will it full-screen completely?
[02:06] <mage> CTho: which vncviewer? theres probably 4 different ones, maybe one does it
[02:06] <CTho> mage: a wine'd one
[02:06] <CTho> i'd imagine fullscreen depends more on wine/gnome than the windows binary
[02:06] <mage> CTho: I cant remember how well wine one works
[02:06] <Jordan_U> Pwall, by updating do you mean doing a fresh install of a new version?
[02:06] <mage> exactly
[02:06] <idefixx> Pwall: you can ie copy the content of /usr to another partition and mount it to /usr
[02:07] <tetrimino> kitche: linux gamer dvd? which games does it contain?
[02:07] <pooranimator> Scunizi, i did. Now what? should i restart?
[02:07] <Pwall> i'm updating to 7.04 i think i had 6.10
[02:07] <Pwall> or 6.01
[02:07] <kitche> tetrimino: tremulous, true combat world of padman it has about 4 games or so right now I believe
[02:07] <Pwall> so if later on i wanna make another partition i can do that right?
[02:07] <sx66> what are you guys doing?
[02:08] <Elipsn> Hey guys, can someone tell me how to change the backgrounds on the 4 desktops of the cube using beryl independently of each other? can it be done?
[02:08] <sldkfj> Pwall, yes you can
[02:08] <mage> CTho: vncviewer on my gnome works, just not in xfce
[02:08] <idefixx> Pwall: well sure you cann allways make new partition as long as you have the hd space for it
[02:08] <Pwall> oh k
[02:08] <Pwall> lol not sure how much i've
[02:08] <Pwall> but thanks.
[02:08] <CTho> mage: the vncviewer tha tlooks archaic?
[02:08] <tetrimino> kitche: where are you from btw=
[02:08] <Scunizi> pooranimator, sort of.  Not a full restart. Do a CTRL-ALT-Backspace.  This will restart the GUI and you'll have to log in again .. hopefully with full res :)
[02:08] <Jordan_U> Elipsn, I think there is a plugin for that, ask in #ubuntu-effects
[02:08] <Pwall> thanks for the help guys.
[02:08] <sldkfj> Pwall, gparted is the program to use to make partitions
[02:08] <Pwall> alright
[02:08] <Pwall> awesome thanks
[02:09] <Elipsn> Jordan_U, thankyou
[02:09] <mage> CTho: aye
[02:09] <Jordan_U> Elipsn, np
[02:09] <mage> xrealvncviewer apparently
[02:09] <kitche> tetrimino: New York State
[02:09] <idefixx> Pwall: actualy that is not 100% correct you must have space in your partition table.
[02:09] <pooranimator> Scunizi, ok lemme try it out. brb

[02:10] <tetrimino> kitche: hehe im from tiny denmark in scandinavia

[02:15] <cables> The pixels aren't square... the monitor is 18.75x11.75, but the resolution is 1600x1200

[02:16] <stratos> I set up twinview mode in xorg with my dual monitors but my main and secondary monitors are flip flopped, how to i swap them to normal
[02:17] <Tcl70> theme setting does not work in my problem :0
[02:17] <tetrimino> i could really use a cheeseburger right now.. can anybody help me with that?
[02:17] <incorperated> does anybody know how to set a fluxbox theme?
[02:17] <docta_v> i'm running ubuntu on amd64... i want to tell apt to look for i386 binaries on a certain repo

[02:17] <jrib> tetrimino: there's a perl script that orders pizza, but we should discuss this in #ubuntu-offtopic

[02:18] <tetrimino> a shake wouldn't hurt

[02:20] <sldkfj> docta_v, well to get the repos you want I would say to open the sources.list and comment-out the ones that aren't the ones youw ant to ask
[02:20] <nickrud> Tcl70, some pointers: /etc/gdm.conf has a possible setting for the gtkrc file. You can set a custom one for gdm, and set the font size there. If you google gtkrc, you should find some info on the format

[02:22] <chohmann> stratos: you'll need to restart X. ctrl+alt+backspace
[02:22] <incorperated> i dont understand anything on the page
[02:22] <Noah> Can someone help me get online with Ubuntu?
[02:22] <Scunizi> incorperated, you need to just ask the question(s) and see if anyone will answer them.
[02:23] <Noah> I'm having trouble with getting on.
[02:23] <incorperated> i just wanted to walk me through on how to set a theme
[02:23] <incorperated> thats all
[02:23] <logiartis> theme on gnome?
[02:23] <Temporo> This is gonna sound a bit silly.
[02:23] <lo4fer> Noah, can you describe your network?
[02:23] <Noah> I have the ndiswrappers all setup, WifiRadar, NetworkManager, and my stuff setup.
[02:23] <lo4fer> noooooooooooooooooooo, not the dreaded wireless
[02:23] <logiartis> damn
[02:24] <Enron> Where is the kernel source folder located in ubuntu
[02:24] <Noah> lo4fer: Yeah, I have a F5D7050
[02:24] <Noah> belkin usb
[02:24] <Noah> connector that should connect to my network.
[02:24] <Temporo> useradd -gusers -Garse -s/bin/bash -d/home/arse -m arse
[02:24] <Temporo> Should give me a user with shell yes?
[02:25] <geeksauce> anyone for sound help?
[02:25] <Enron> Temporo where is the kernel source folder located in ubuntu
[02:25] <sldkfj> geeksauce:   http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_configure_sound_to_work_properly_in_GNOME
[02:25] <Noah> lo4fer: I know my device is working and recognized.
[02:25] <Temporo> Enron, eh?
[02:25] <Enron> I need to use dkms to build snapapi26
[02:25] <Noah> lo4fer:  ndiswrapper says so.
[02:26] <Enron> dkms build -m snapapi26 -v 0.7.0 --arch i686 --kernelsourcedir
[02:26] <Temporo> Enron, If it's installed it will be in /usr/src/
[02:26] <tokj> Enron: linux-source installs sources in /usr/src
[02:26] <stratos> chohmann: i know to restart x it didn't fix it
[02:26] <Noah> lo4fer:  Wifi-Radar also when it's unplugged can't sense it, but when the device is plugged in recognizes the type of network.
[02:26] <Noah> lo4fer:  Meaning it can sense the netowrk.
[02:27] <incorperated> ok i dont get it
[02:27] <Noah> lo4fer: you there?
[02:27] <Farnaby> Who knows their filesystems?
[02:27] <Noah> Can anyoen help me with my wifi problem?
[02:28] <Scunizi> Farnaby, my files system is named bob.  nice enough :)
[02:28] <chohmann> stratos: any errors or warnings from /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
[02:28] <get> hi there??
[02:28] <Farnaby> nice scunizi ;)
[02:28] <Enron> dkms build -m snapapi26 -v 0.7.10 --arch i686 --kernelsourcedir /usr/src/snapapi26-0.7.10/ , I get error Error! Your kernel source for kernel 2.6.15-23-server cannot be found at
[02:28] <Enron> /lib/modules/2.6.15-23-server/build or /lib/modules/2.6.15-23-server/source.
[02:28] <Farnaby> Seem to be having trouble mounting my secondary hdd under fiesty where I want it. It did under edgy but evidently something changed
[02:29] <incorperated> how do i access the fluxbox styles directory from terminal
[02:29] <incorperated> ?
[02:29] <Enron> tokj any suggestions
[02:29] <Farnaby> which means my card reader is probably also fubared but thats notwhere the music is stored...
[02:30] <Farnaby> there is always something with an upgrade....
[02:30] <Noah> I really need help with wifi?  Can anyone help?
[02:30] <Farnaby> noah, whats the issue?
[02:30] <Noah> It won't go on.
[02:30] <tokj> Enron: are linux-headers installed?
[02:30] <Noah> IT's weird.
[02:30] <Noah> I've set up ndiswrapper
[02:31] <lavar1917> I ripped a dvd onto my computer and now I am ready to burn it to a disk, except its 7GB. How do I make it smaller (4.7GB)
[02:31] <Farnaby> i need you to be more descriptive then "it won't go on"
[02:31] <Noah> and it says that it's recognized (hardware and drivers)
[02:31] <Enron> tokj I'm unsure
[02:31] <Farnaby> k
[02:31] <Enron> how do I check
[02:31] <Noah> Faraby:  Sorry I was still typing.
[02:31] <Farnaby> Mind you mine uses a wired connection
[02:31] <Farnaby> but i have messed with it a bit
[02:31] <Noah> Farnaby: I actually have a wireless connection.
[02:31] <gtr> Is there a good howto how I can set up to see my friends shared folder on her xp machine?
[02:31] <stratos> chohmann: command not found for that
[02:32] <Noah> Farnaby:  Wifi-Radar, Network-Manager, their all installed.
[02:32] <Farnaby> Noah, at the moment I am wireless but thats cause the ubuntu machine is rebooting ;)
[02:32] <Enron> tokj Whats the syntax to find out
[02:32] <Farnaby> and all working?
[02:32] <BlueDevil> can anyone help me compile a new kernel?
[02:32] <Noah> Farnaby: lol
[02:32] <sn0> gtr im not sure, there is lots of info on samba on the ubuntu wiki
[02:32] <tokj> Enron: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[02:32] <Noah> Farnaby:  Wifi-Radar has my network put in.
[02:32] <chohmann> stratos: the command would be "grep WW /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[02:32] <Noah> Farnaby:  It's getting recognized though.
[02:32] <geeksauce> still no sound :(
[02:32] <sn0> but for sharing to xp you should hopefully only need too right click the folder > share > then install sharing when requested
[02:32] <lavar1917> I have wireless, are you using ubuntu 7.04?
[02:33] <sn0> and it  'just work' :)
[02:33] <n2diy> BlueDevil: if you don't get any help here, try #ubuntu-kernel
[02:33] <gtr> sn0: so thats where I start?  install samba
[02:33] <Noah> Farnaby:  When my device is unconnected it can't see what type of connection.  I'm using edgy by the way.
[02:33] <Noah> Farnaby:  When it's connected though.
[02:33] <BlueDevil> n2diy: i tried to no avail
[02:33] <chohmann> stratos: and "grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log" for errors
[02:33] <Noah> Farnaby:  IT can view the type of connection.
[02:33] <Farnaby> i am starting to wish I didn't upgrade tonight
[02:33] <BlueDevil> n2diy: thanks though
[02:33] <Noah> Farnaby:  It won't find the IP address.
[02:33] <cparker> I made some adjustments to my GNOME settings, and now GDM refuses to load. Namely, I changed the GDM theme and checked the setting to lock the screen when the screensaver comes on. Any idea what I should do?
[02:34] <Enron> tpkj Thank you, once the headers installed whats the next step
[02:34] <stratos> cho i'm gonna try something else and brb
[02:34] <sn0> gtr yes, you can try the way i mentioned, or manually install samba + set things up that way
[02:34] <n2diy> BlueDevil: yes, I see the traffic over there, good luck.
[02:34] <cparker> Is there a way to revert to a "last known to work" set of configuration options?
[02:35] <KarlsBerg_> Hello..
[02:35] <geeksauce> anyone know what could be causing me to have no sound after distro update?
[02:35] <stratos> chohmann: no errors
[02:35] <carlhempel> up is the sound driver loaded?
[02:35] <carlhempel> um*
[02:35] <chohmann> stratos: no warnings either?
[02:35] <Farnaby> ok, does anybody know what changed with the hdd naming scheme between edgy and feisty?
[02:35] <cparker> At first, I thought it was my choice of using HumanList, so I changed the theme in gdm.conf-custom back to Human. But GDM still refuses to load, so I can't get into GNOME.
[02:36] <KarlsBerg_> im ubuntu user from brezzy, and xorg run good on my PackardBell Easynote laptop, now i download Feisty, and when start livecd i get this xorg error on shell: Fatal Server Error: caught signal 11
[02:36] <geeksauce> carlhempel, i assume so... how can i check?
[02:36] <carlhempel> do an lsmod
[02:36] <Farnaby> I need to edit fstab but not sure what to change it to
[02:36] <cparker> I'm using the most up-to-date Ubuntu Feisty.
[02:36] <geeksauce> carlhempel, and look for what?
[02:36] <cparker> I'd even settle with all of my GNOME settings to be reset back to default, if that's possible.
[02:37] <KarlsBerg_> and cant start feisty, why this...
[02:37] <carlhempel> KarlsBerg_:  you have a PackardBell ??????????
[02:37] <carlhempel> I thought they went out of business
[02:37] <KarlsBerg_> from dapper i get some errors that before dont exist.. as sound, as ttyes shells... as total frezzen crash..
[02:37] <oskar_> Can someone help me install warcraft III, I've got Ubuntu...
[02:38] <chohmann> stratos: can you paste your xorg.conf to the pastebin?
[02:38] <KarlsBerg_> i ?
[02:38] <Enron> tokj http://phpfi.com/241602 I got an Error after installing and trying to recompile
[02:38] <gtr> Im confused, would I need to use samba to see a share on a win xp box?
[02:38] <KarlsBerg_> im starting Feisty from CD, is my first contact with feisty, and im starting livecd when get this
[02:38] <cparker> gtr: yer\s
[02:38] <cparker> yes*
[02:39] <KarlsBerg_> and get: Fatal Server Error: caught signal 11
[02:40] <Enron> Can someone help http://phpfi.com/241602 I got an Error
[02:40] <tokj> Enron: sudo apt-get build-essential  .it will install everything you need for compiling sources
[02:40] <geeksauce> sound still isn't working.  i followed the instructions on the link that was sent to me to no avail
[02:40] <n2diy> ! nvidia
[02:40] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:40] <cparker> I'll brb. I guess nobody has any clues about how to solve my problem.
[02:40] <sn0> gtr oh my apologies , could have sworn you wanted it the other way round , ubuntu sharing to xp
[02:41] <sn0> ignore me then, just try connecting to the xp share , there is a places > connect to server > and smb option you can use
[02:41] <Enron> tokj Thank you
[02:41] <idefixx> i've set my locales stuff manualy via /etc/default/locale (including some of the LC_stuff) it works perfectly until gnome or kde starts they just irgnore it and set their own LC values. can i somehow tell them to stop that?
[02:41] <Enron> Anyone here installed acronis agent on ubuntu or any other distro before?
[02:42] <sinthetek> i'm having a bit of trouble with mysql configuration... i cannot seem to find the my.cnf mysql is using
[02:43] <NigelS> cparker: rename the gdm.conf-custom away from the gdm.conf name or delete it then type "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[02:43] <gaten> sn0: connecting to windows share? Places -> Connect to Server -> WIndows SHare
[02:43] <gnychis> Ubuntu install is recommending 3GB for swap, isn't that kind of big?
[02:43] <cparker> NigelS: simply deleting the -custom file will get it re-created?
[02:43] <aroo> That's way too big
[02:43] <aroo> gnychis, I wouldn't go over 1gb
[02:43] <sinthetek> show variables; is listing the server's basedir as /usr but there is no my.cnf or mysql/ in /usr
[02:43] <sn0> gaten yes, im not in gnome at the moment so working from bad/memory
[02:43] <sn0> there is a drop down for windows/samba share in the list
[02:44] <sinthetek> and alterations of /etc/mysql/my.cnf, or linking /etc/mysql/my.cnf to /usr don't reflect in server status when i restart it
[02:44] <NigelS> cparker: if there's something in there you need then rename it to some backup file but yeah gdm should be ok
[02:44] <gaten> sn0: yes
[02:44] <BlueDevil> !info linux-sources
[02:44] <ubotu> Package linux-sources does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[02:44] <cparker> NigelS: Ok, i'
[02:44] <cparker> ll try that.
[02:45] <gnychis> aroo: whats optimal?
[02:45] <Elipsn_> hey guys, can you recommend me a program to get that does the OX X icon thing at the bottom of the desktop? Needs to work with beryl....
[02:45] <aroo> gnychis, how much ram do you have
[02:45] <KarlsBerg_> Anybody can help me?
[02:45] <Elipsn_> er, OS X
[02:45] <gnychis> aroo: 1GB
[02:45] <KarlsBerg_> i get "Fatal Server Error: caught signal 11" starting livecd
[02:46] <aroo> gnychis, I have a computer with 1gb ram and 1gb swap and it works just fine, though I'm no expert
[02:46] <cparker> NigelS: All better. :) Thank you. I'll see if I can find what caused the problem by re-introducing my changes one at a time then file a bug report. Thanks again.
[02:46] <aroo> gnychis, just don't go over 1gb because I've heard there's no point
[02:46] <gnychis> aroo: cool, thanks
[02:47] <Farnaby> Ok guys I need help with fstab
[02:47] <gtr> whats the ipconfig equivalent in ubuntu?
[02:47] <sinthetek> so... no idea how to make mysql or apt print out where my.cnf is located?
[02:47] <NigelS> gtr: ifconfig
[02:47] <NigelS> gtr: as in "interface config"
[02:47] <gtr> thanks
[02:48] <gaten> sinthetek: try /etc/mysql/my.cnf
[02:48] <sinthetek> gaten: they don't seem to be being read from there
[02:48] <sinthetek> maybe there is something wrong with this tuning-primer.sh i'm running...
[02:48] <pak33m> /etc/my.cnf
[02:48] <sinthetek> it always says long_query_time = 10
[02:48] <cables> Are there any levels after Tutorial Island in Pingus?
[02:48] <sinthetek> but seems no matter where i put the file after i change it, it's still set to 10, which is the default
[02:49] <NigelS> sinthetek: dpkg -L <package> will list all packages that are installed from the package - you could dpkg -L <package> | grep <file name> to find a particular one
[02:49] <Farnaby> sdc1 is mounting in the wrong place
[02:49] <NigelS> sinthetek: that should read, will list all *files that are installed...
[02:49] <IanLiu> Hello there! Is there a torrent file to download Ubuntu Feisty?
[02:49] <IanLiu> I only found the direct http link
[02:50] <_Michael> what is the difference between ubuntu and kubuntu?
[02:50] <sn0> iamchris_  yea http://us.releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent
[02:50] <NigelS> _Michael: one defaults to Gnome, the other to KDE - different desktop environments (as a result they have different apps installed on install)
[02:50] <pak33m> sinkhetek: #locate my.cnf to find other copies
[02:50] <sn0> err IanLiu sorry*
[02:50] <draik> What is the equivalent of Katapult from KDE in GNOME?
[02:50] <idefixx> wooho it locales work when i dont use the gdmgreeter (using kdegreeter now)... so again anone knows how to make the gdmgreeter stop overwriting all my locale env.vars (or make it honor /etc/default/locale)?
[02:50] <bastid_raZor> kubuntu is more like a windows enviroment. ubuntu is more like a mac enviroment
[02:51] <_Michael> I see
[02:51] <bastid_raZor> kubuntu, to me, was easier to transition from windows xp.. but once learned Ubuntu is the only way to go
[02:51] <IanLiu> Thank sn0 =)
[02:51] <sn0> your welcome :)
[02:51] <bastid_raZor> ;has both kubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-desktops installed
[02:51] <sinthetek> NigelS: that only lists 3 files in /usr/doc for mysql-server
[02:51] <NigelS> draik: looking at the description I think the gnome deskbar poss is - right click on the taskbar and try it
[02:52] <sinthetek> pak33m: still doesn't seem to be being read
[02:52] <geeksauce> anyone for help with sound?  sound won't work after upgrade :\
[02:52] <Enron> tokj I got another Error http://phpfi.com/241604 , thanks for helping.
[02:52] <vox754> bastid_raZor, what? nonsense!
[02:52] <_Michael> Should I try both or just go with ubuntu?
[02:52] <NigelS> sinthetek: then perhaps another package installs the file you're after or alternatively the file is created on first run/by the user?
[02:52] <draik> NigelS: Nope, that's not it
[02:52] <ivan> root@toofast:~# sudo apt-get update
[02:52] <bastid_raZor> vox754: i said for me. KDE was much easier to learn.. but now Ubuntu is by far better
[02:52] <ivan> sudo: unable to lookup toofast.vectoral.info via gethostbyname()
[02:52] <ivan> any idea?
[02:52] <Bacon|ubuntu> Guys, I am having some problems installing grub correctly.
[02:54] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: still?
[02:54] <draik> Also, how do I change the splash screen in GNOME?
[02:54] <Enron> tokj any suggestions?
[02:54] <_Michael> what are the difference in KDE and Gnome
[02:54] <draik> bastid_raZor: So do I. It's pretty neat having both.
[02:54] <bastid_raZor> k3b, kTorrent.. but using GDM
[02:54] <draik> _Michael: Depends on your taste
[02:54] <_Michael> I dont know which one to get
[02:54] <gnychis> why does ubuntu make the swap space a logical instead of primary partition?
[02:54] <vox754> bastid_raZor, what really got me was that about being "like windows or mac", that is totallysubjective.
[02:54] <SlimG> Is it possible to link directly to a nick on irc like somewhat like the link to a channel is done, ex.: irc://irc.freenode.org/ubuntu ?
[02:54] <bastid_raZor> draik: yeah, i like it very much
[02:54] <NigelS> draik: deskbar launches bookmarks etc etc how does katapult differ? is the text analysis special?
[02:54] <IanLiu> Does someone have a good link explaining how to make my ubuntu machine accessible from ssh? I have installed openssh-server, but I don't know how to use it
[02:54] <sinthetek> NigelS: mysql-server pkg only installs a copyright and changelog file to /usr/share/doc? kind of a waste to make a package just for that :P
[02:54] <KarlsBerg_> Anybody can help me? i get "Fatal Server Error: caught signal 11" starting livecd ubuntu feisty as my first time with this version
[02:54] <idefixx> _Michael: KDE is more windowsie.
[02:54] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak, Yes, I have only one drive now (SDA), I've tried to install grub to sda, and sd0, and hd0, and it is NO GO
[02:54] <_Michael> draik, apperance?
[02:54] <NigelS> sinthetek: the devil is in the depdencencies I suspect :)
[02:54] <draik> _Michael: Yes
[02:54] <_Michael> i see
[02:54] <draik> NigelS: I don't see anything for launching apps
[02:54] <NigelS> draik: deskbar will launch apps
[02:54] <ivan> any idea guys?
[02:55] <NigelS> draik: it has a lot of plugins for web history, bookmarks, will execute commands in the path etc etc
[02:55] <draik> NigelS: Is there a keyboard shortcut for the deskbar?
[02:55] <tokj> Enron: you have to look in the make.log which is located in the directory written in the error message.
[02:55] <Bassetts> hi, I just got my sound working on my Lenovo 3000 C200 thanks to this wiki page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/Lenovo3000C200 but now I have updated the system the sound does not work with the latest kernel
[02:55] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: are you running the live CD or the Alt. install CD?
[02:55] <_Michael> I have 7 different linux distros i am getting on a cd to try and wasn't sure if i should get kubuntu and ubuntu
[02:55] <NigelS> draik: alt-f3 by default but that can be changed iirc
[02:55] <ivan> root@toofast:~# sudo apt-get update
[02:55] <ivan> sudo: unable to lookup toofast.vectoral.info via gethostbyname()
[02:55] <draik> NigelS: ALT+F3 doesn't do anything for me
[02:55] <draik> :(
[02:55] <tokj> Enron: that message doesn't give enough infos to understand where is the problem
[02:56] <IanLiu> Some good remote access trough SSH?
[02:56] <IanLiu> tutorial*
[02:56] <NigelS> draik: well, go to properties, select the view tab and change it or work out why it isn't working :)
[02:56] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: which install cd are you using?
[02:56] <pak33m> sinthetek: you could reinstall mysql from source to /usr/local & this way you would know exactly where your files are located, i.e the my.cnf would only be in /etc/my.cnf but you would have to sudo apt-get --purge remove mysql if you installed through apt-get or uninstall & reinstall using aptitude to better fix deps
[02:56] <sinthetek> ok...so apparently it was generated upon install... so how do i find where it is placed?
[02:56] <idefixx> IanLiu: google is your friend there is like a million out there.
[02:56] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak, basic 7x ubuntu x64
[02:57] <sinthetek> oh  yeah, i still haven't tried strace
[02:57] <vox754> !ssh
[02:57] <ubotu> SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[02:57] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: you say "basic".. are you installing from the Live CD(ie, where you can boot it, and surf the internet, etc,) or are you using the text installer
[02:57] <draik> Where can I change my splash screen?
[02:57] <_Michael> I have 7 different linux distros i am getting on a cd to try and wasn't sure if i should get kubuntu and ubuntu
[02:58] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak, I booted into ubuntu via cd and installed from there
[02:58] <Enron> Tojk I got the log http://phpfi.com/241607
[02:58] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: is it the LIVE CD, or is it the Text based installer.
[02:58] <sinthetek> stat64("/usr/my.cnf", 0xbfe0145c)       = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
[02:58] <sinthetek> stat64("/var/lib/mysql/my.cnf", 0xbfe0145c) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
[02:58] <Bacon|ubuntu> LIVE CD
[02:58] <sinthetek> for the record
[02:58] <NigelS> sinthetek: the mysql package is just a dummy package which depends on the latest version
[02:58] <sinthetek> i wonder why it didn't seem to work when i put my.cnf in/usr...
[02:58] <killown> exist any convert mac os icons?
[02:59] <NigelS> sinthetek: the actual package is called mysql-server-5.0 - see what dpkg -L mysql-server-5.0 shows for the actual files installed
[02:59] <Sentinel> Does anyone know any good programs like limewire that are for linux?
[02:59] <_Michael> being a windows user thing i will get ubuntu just as good as kubuntu
[02:59] <ivan> anyone?
[02:59] <idefixx> killown: i think gnomelook.org has a osx icon set.
[02:59] <Enron> tojk does that tell you anything?
[02:59] <pak33m> sentinel: try nicotine+
[02:59] <j1tters> sentinel stay away from anything like limewire. try bittorrent
[02:59] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: ok... you may want to try the Alternate Install CD.. also, i'd recommend you go with the 32bit, evne if your PC is 64bit capable.
[03:00] <Sentinel> Bittorrent allows u to download music?
[03:00] <geeksauce> Sentinel, !frostwire
[03:00] <ivan> yes
[03:00] <Bacon|ubuntu> meh
[03:00] <j1tters> sentinel yes.
[03:00] <vox754> Bacon|ubuntu, listen to him. Go with 32 bit for desktop.
[03:00] <Sentinel> where could i get frostwire?
[03:00] <ivan> root@toofast:~# sudo apt-get update
[03:00] <ivan> sudo: unable to lookup toofast.vectoral.info via gethostbyname()
[03:00] <ivan> any idea guys
[03:00] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: do what you want, bu ti'm teling you, you'll only be frustrated with the 64bit distro.
[03:01] <j1tters> bacon stay away from 64bit. trust me . been there done that.
[03:01] <NigelS> ivan: did you alter anything with apt? did you change your /etc/apt/sources.list either manually or through the GUI?
[03:01] <j1tters> its just not ready yet.
[03:01] <Bacon|ubuntu> well, I mean does the 64 bit distro really going to solve the grub error?
[03:01] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: no, the 32bit won't solve the error, you probably need to use the alternate install error.
[03:01] <lymeca> I run 64-bit and it works like a charm
[03:01] <j1tters> bacon 32/64 has nothing to do with a grub error
[03:01] <ivan> nope
[03:01] <idefixx> ivan: toofast.vectoral.info is probably somewhere in your sources.list or in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. take it out of there.
[03:01] <IndyGunFreak> lymeca: whats your linux experience
[03:02] <Bacon|ubuntu> Problem is, I only have on harddrive, a USB 30gb that is seen as SDA
[03:02] <zerro> hi i have big problem with my ubuntu install on my 64bit is the some one that have time to help me and/or walk me through ??
[03:02] <Bacon|ubuntu> thing is, grub wont install on a sda
[03:02] <Sentinel> thanks i have a feeling im going to like frostwire!!! =)
[03:02] <j1tters> bacon. um id recommend getting a real drive. either sata or ide.
[03:02] <Bacon|ubuntu> j1tters, no go
[03:02] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu:  thats why you need the alternate install cd.
[03:02] <Enron> tojk ?
[03:02] <ivan> idefixx thanks
[03:02] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak, where would I get that?
[03:02] <lymeca> IndyGunFreak: How do I describe that?  Hmm, I only have familiarity with Slackware, Ubuntu, and Debian, and I've only been using GNU/Linux as my main OS for a bit over 1 year.
[03:02] <Bacon|ubuntu> just get another ubuntu distro?
[03:02] <IndyGunFreak> lymeca: ok.
[03:02] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: hold on
[03:03] <_Michael> i'm getting so confused with what distro to use lol
[03:03] <Enron> can someone tell me how I can fix this http://phpfi.com/241607
[03:03] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: you're here in the US, correct
[03:03] <Bacon|ubuntu> Yes
[03:03] <idefixx> _Michael: try all of them go with the one you like best :)
[03:03] <Sentinel> I have a firestarter (firewall) and this thing called "screen actions" both of them dont work until i run the program. I want them to start every time i turn on my computer but they wont i have to run the program first.... Any ideas?
[03:04] <vox754> _Michael, Ubuntu 7.04, that's it. I solved your problem.
[03:04] <NemesisD> hey guys, is ext3 pretty good with power failures, even if journaling is off (by default)?
[03:04] <_Michael> idefixx: think i would find a difference in ubuntu and kubuntu
[03:04] <zerro> hello ??
[03:04] <_Michael> voz754: heh
[03:04] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: read the description of the alternate install CD...  http://ubuntu.cs.wisc.edu/pub/mirrors/linux/ubuntu/releases/7.04/
[03:04] <_Michael> voz754: should i try kubuntu?
[03:05] <NigelS> NemesisD: you've turned journalling off?
[03:05] <idefixx> _Michael: since you can install and use them parallel there is no need to decide. i got kde and gnome install (ubuntu and kubuntu) so you can switch if u feel like it
[03:05] <ticky> what is the best GUI application to use GPG
[03:05] <Tarkus> hey, anyone here use banshee for a media player?
[03:05] <vox754> _Michael, no, stick to ubuntu, then install "kubuntu-desktop" later if you feel like it
[03:05] <NemesisD> nigel, i thought it was off by default, i didn't turn it on, but i didnt turn it off either
[03:05] <gnychis> why does ubuntu make the swap space a logical instead of primary partition?
[03:05] <NemesisD> whoops, NigelS *
[03:05] <geeksauce> anyone have any luck with the nVidia driver for the MX440 ?
[03:06] <Sentinel> i downloaded frostwire but when i try to run it it says permission denied
[03:06] <Bacon|ubuntu> Indy, webserver is down
[03:06] <Sentinel> im logged in as root too
[03:06] <_Michael> idefixx: I see, I have 7 different distros i am getting cds/dvds for
[03:06] <ticky> gnychis: why should it be a primary partition
[03:06] <greyfrog> Sentinel, needs sudo, do sudo frostwire
[03:06] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: ?.. im sititng here looking at it.
[03:06] <NigelS> NemesisD: the journal will be on by default
[03:06] <Bacon|ubuntu> just went up
[03:06] <Sentinel> k
[03:06] <greyfrog> Sentinel, nvm saw next post
[03:06] <geeksauce> Sentinel you shouldn't be logged in as root, ever
[03:06] <gnychis> ticky: i asked why should it be logical first :)
[03:06] <ticky> does anybody use a GUI for GPG?
[03:06] <Enron> tokj you there?
[03:06] <Bacon|ubuntu> I have to burn another disk
[03:06] <Bacon|ubuntu> ...
[03:06] <_Michael> idefixx: wasn't sure if getting kubuntu and ubuntu would be a waste or if i should just get one
[03:06] <devcenter> guys, what's a program (for gnome), that use for listen podcast, and display text of podcast
[03:06] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: in the end, yes.
[03:07] <idefixx> _Michael: i most of the common distros myself, also i guess your taste is gonna change as you learn more about linux.
[03:07] <NemesisD> NigelS, ok and that helps with power failures? someone was messing around with the drive and the psu has a faulty power connector it seems, now the comp has trouble booting
[03:07] <idefixx> _Michael: I tried*
[03:07] <NigelS> NemesisD: to answer your question though without a journal a time consuming run of fsck is needed to check for consistency
[03:07] <Bacon|ubuntu> and if it doesn't work again, I want 1$ paypal indy
[03:07] <Bacon|ubuntu> lol
[03:07] <ticky> gnychis: you can only have 4 primary partitions, it would make no sense to assign one just for the swap
[03:07] <gnychis> ticky: mkay
[03:07] <mik1> How do I set a path for cbs.com to find installed realplayer10?
[03:07] <zerro> well i have this problem that when i try to install ubuntu it finds to of my hdds that are in raid mode and no as one ...
[03:07] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[03:08] <staz__> anyone know about the state of video capture with ubuntu?
[03:08] <gnychis> one more question... i don't see a partition for the boot, where does ubuntu put boot?
[03:08] <devcenter> guys, what's a program (for gnome), that use for listen podcast, and display text of podcast
[03:08] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: the alternate install is generally better, it doesn't install grub until the very end....
[03:08] <chris1980> is there a ubuntu debain GUI packager?
[03:08] <_Michael> idefixx: only reason why dont want to get both atm is because i need 3 cents (paypal) to buy all 7 distros
[03:08] <ticky> gnychis: your question is kind of nonesense.. it can be either one one way or the other.. ubuntu has to pick one.
[03:08] <NigelS> NemesisD: yeah, the journal is a note of all HD transactions - when a hard power off happens the ones that are not committed to the FS will be when the journal is replayed on boot - that is not to say that errors could not happen - the took you need is fsck if you want to check for errors.
[03:08] <greyfrog> staz__, from what?
[03:08] <staz__> synaptic
[03:08] <_Michael> idefixx: I have 12.19 i need 12.22 lol
[03:08] <NigelS> NemesisD: what sort of trouble booting?
[03:08] <staz__> !msg greyfrog panasonic gs500
[03:09] <devcenter> i'm learning english, but i need of a podcast that display text for me
[03:09] <greyfrog> staz__, I use kino to capture from my camcoder all the time using firewire
[03:09] <NemesisD> NigelS, it fails to load drivers i think he said and has some io errors
[03:09] <chris1980> how do i uninstall my .deb files useing a GUI for ones that are not in the repository?
[03:09] <Sentinel> I have a firestarter (firewall) and this thing called "screen actions" both of them dont work until i run the program. I want them to start every time i turn on my computer but they wont i have to run the program first.... Any ideas?
[03:09] <ticky> gnychis: you don't need a partition for the booting.. that's stored in the MBR (master boot record). and it tells which partition should it boot from
[03:09] <NemesisD> NigelS, sorry for being so vague, im doing this over the phone and no matter how many times i try to get him to set up SSH it doesn't get done
[03:09] <zerro> and i try all ready sever, alternate cd's and nothing new there ....
[03:09] <staz__> maybe I'll try firewire
[03:09] <staz__> thanks
[03:09] <chris1980> how do i uninstall my .deb files useing a GUI for ones that are not in the repository?
[03:09] <Eliphas> Can anyone tell me how to make ktorrent my default torrent program?
[03:09] <_Michael> idefixx: When you said I can install them parallel do you mean dual booting or something different?
[03:09] <Bassetts> can someone help me out, I followed this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/Lenovo3000C200 to get my sound working, but the latest kernel stops the sound from working again, why?
[03:09] <NemesisD> NigelS, ok i think he said it booted :O
[03:10] <johnnytang24> Sentinel : you could put the commands in your rc scripts
[03:10] <Eliphas> Can anyone tell me how to make ktorrent my default torrent program?  I don't like bittorrent.
[03:10] <chris1980> how do i uninstall my .deb files useing a GUI for ones that are not in the repository?
[03:10] <chris1980> how do i uninstall my .deb files useing a GUI for ones that are not in the repository?
[03:10] <greyfrog> chris1980, dpkg -r pkg
[03:10] <NigelS> gnychis: a /boot partition is useful as it happens, it's location does not matter, but at the start of the disk could be useful so you can keep it static and play around with later ones
[03:10] <idefixx> _Michael: no, at the login screen you can select weather you want to start gnome or kde.. thats it.
[03:10] <chris1980> that isn't a GUI
[03:10] <gnychis> ticky: hmmm... gentoo always used a boot partition which kept grub and multiple kernels
[03:10] <ticky> chris1980: just double click on it
[03:10] <Eliphas> Can anyone tell me how to make ktorrent my default torrent program?  I don't like bittorrent.
[03:10] <chris1980> thats a command prompt
[03:10] <NigelS> ticky: he is referring to having /boot mounted seperately  - this is a common practise
[03:10] <devcenter> exist podcast that read a story
[03:10] <Salazar_> does anybody know how I might go about making my tv-out work on ubuntu feisty? I'm running an ATI Radeon 9250
[03:10] <chris1980> double click on what?
[03:10] <Eliphas> Can anyone tell me how to make ktorrent my default torrent program?  I don't like bittorrent.
[03:10] <KarlsBerg_> anybody can help me please?  where previos ubuntu versions run good, feisty dont start even the live cd... get xorg caught signal 11. aborting... and cant start..
[03:11] <chris1980> duble clicking on a .deb will install it not uninstall one
[03:11] <_Michael> idefixx: oh i see, does ubuntu have both or do i need kubuntu and ubuntu?
[03:11] <Tarkus> hey, anyone here use banshee for a media player?
[03:11] <Eliphas> Can anyone tell me how to make ktorrent my default torrent program?  I don't like bittorrent.
[03:11] <ticky> gnychis: never used gentoo.. but if you are talking about making the /boot dir a parition. .you can.. but it makes no sense for me.. anyway.. the disks boots from the MBR (period)
[03:11] <NigelS> NemesisD: ok, if it boots and there are no errors then all is fine - odd behaviour could be caused by apps that didn't manage to quit properly but without knowinge exactly what..
[03:11] <chris1980> kubuntu and ubuntu are the same
[03:11] <Sentinel> Where could i find those scripts johnnytang24?
[03:11] <Eliphas> Can anyone tell me how to make ktorrent my default torrent program?  I don't like bittorrent.
[03:11] <gnychis> ticky: sounds good
[03:11] <zerro> so how do i install ubuntu on my sata raid harddisk drives ??
[03:11] <MSIGuy> I have a quick question, I'm looking to install unbuntu on my laptop, so I downloaded the 7.04 from the main site, is that the install cd or is it a live cd?
[03:12] <Eliphas> Is anyone going to answer my question?
[03:12] <MSIGuy> Or is it both?  o.O
[03:12] <ehazlett> how can i use dselect on the command line hold a package (restrict from upgrade)?
[03:12] <Eliphas> Can anyone tell me how to make ktorrent my default torrent program?  I don't like bittorrent.
[03:12] <ticky> Eliphas: right click a .torrent file, choose properties, then open with application... and you set the default program
[03:12] <idefixx> _Michael: like someone said bevore.. its best to just install ubuntu and if thats installed just run 'sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop' it'll downlaod stuff and after that you have kubuntu as well.
[03:12] <chris1980> how do i uninstall my .deb files useing a GUI for ones that are not in the repository?
[03:12] <ticky> gnychis: sure. no problem
[03:12] <NigelS> ticky: it makes a lot of sense if you are, for example, using logical volume management or you want the freedome to manage other partitions without disrupting the core system images
[03:12] <Eliphas> Thank you...
[03:12] <Salazar_> Anybody know how I hook up tv-out for ubuntu feisty fawn? I'm running a Radeon 9250
[03:12] <Tarkus> anyone here use banshee music player? im trying to figure out why it gives me this error: http://img482.imageshack.us/img482/3603/screenshotld0.png
[03:12] <klobster> how do I disable ctrl-alt-del?
[03:12] <zerro> MSIGuy: it is both a install and a live cd
[03:12] <Fezzler> does Ubuntu LiveCD boot to an HFS+ file system?
[03:12] <ticky> chris1980: i have already replied to you
[03:12] <mik1> how to set path to realplayer in linux?
[03:12] <MSIGuy> zerro, Thanks.
[03:12] <chris1980> no u diddn't
[03:12] <chris1980> u told me a command prompt way not a GUI way
[03:13] <ticky> klobster: how did you enabled it in the first place?
[03:13] <chris1980> there is a difrance
[03:13] <chris1980> I whant the GUI method
[03:13] <MSIGuy> I haven't heard of that before, interesting idea though.  Last *nix install I've had was a FC4 install, so needless to say it wasn't as "neat"
[03:13] <chris1980> read what I write
[03:13] <greyfrog> chris1980, synaptic handles debs that aren't from the repos
[03:13] <ticky> chris1980: now DOUBLE CLICK is a command
[03:13] <chris1980> no
[03:13] <NigelS> chris1980: double click the deb it should open up the gui package installer
[03:13] <_Michael> idefixx: oh i see, is it a big download because I can't really download, my brother gets pissed because it lags him playing a game lol
[03:13] <obake-san> hey, i need some help with getting windows and ubuntu smb to work together
[03:13] <MSIGuy> Well, off to reboot and install it!  Hopefully the NIC will work out of the box...  lol
[03:13] <greyfrog> chris1980, yes, synaptic handles debs not in the repos
[03:13] <ticky> i mean, a "command line" command
[03:13] <chris1980> how do i find the double click?
[03:13] <_Michael> idefixx: thats why i am buying the distros
[03:14] <|Rkod|> Hello
[03:14] <ticky> helow
[03:14] <MSIGuy> zerro, Thanks for the help, appreciate it, good bye!
[03:14] <Salazar_> Salazar: wonders if anybody knows how to enable tv-out on ubuntu feisty fawn
[03:14] <NigelS> chris1980: err? you press the first mouse button twice in succession
[03:14] <idefixx> _Michael: its a few hundert mb not sure someting between 150-200 i think.
[03:14] <Eliphas> How do I right click on a .torrent file?
[03:14] <ticky> chris1980: microsoft.com
[03:14] <Eliphas> How do I right click on a .torrent file?
[03:14] <greyfrog> chris1980, read what I wrote.  Synaptic handles debs not in the repos
[03:14] <chris1980> what has that gotr to do with anything
[03:14] <_Michael> idefixx: oh okay i should be able to download it when he is at work
[03:14] <idefixx> _Michael: kick your brother in the head... how long does he play anyway :)
[03:14] <NigelS> I think he's just trolling
[03:14] <ticky> Eliphas: same as you right click on any other file
[03:14] <|Rkod|> I'm currently trying to work with Wubi, and i'm getting stuck at the Ubuntu loading screen after boot, 3 bars into the progress, anyone have any ideas?
[03:14] <Salazar_> fglrx?
[03:14] <chris1980> no it only hadels the repose
[03:15] <Salazar_> ....I've seen the fglrx before and I think it'll run my tv-out
[03:15] <Eliphas> ticky: But where is the file?
[03:15] <greyfrog> chris1980, if you are unwilling to listen then we can';t help
[03:15] <_Michael> idefixx: he plays all day all night and sometimes at work(using a bot)(mmorpg)
[03:15] <Salazar_> I'll go try
[03:15] <Eliphas> It won't download into bittorrent now...
[03:15] <greyfrog> chris1980, I have plenty of debs that aren't in the repos that synaptic handles just fine
[03:15] <ticky> Eliphas: i don't know.. you should know where you download the torrent files you download from the web
[03:15] <klobster> ticky: juh? it has always been enabled: ctrl-alt-del does a shutdown -r now
[03:15] <chris1980> you aren't helping
[03:15] <ehazlett> chris1980: yes it (synaptic) handles all packages.  do a search for your package
[03:15] <_Michael> idefixx: He is alot bigger than me, as in muscle mass
[03:15] <chris1980> ok
[03:15] <Eliphas> ticky: So on the torrent website I right click the torrent file?
[03:15] <Fezzler> No one technical knowledge enough on HFS+ LiveCD question?
[03:15] <DK_II> !atirage
[03:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about atirage - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:15] <NigelS> chris1980: just use the mouse to doulbe click the .deb it will then be graphically installed
[03:15] <_Michael> idefixx: or i'd kick him in the head lol
[03:16] <ticky> klobster: do you run gnome?
[03:16] <|Rkod|> It installed correctly and fine, and loaded up the ubuntu window allright, but now it stops at 3 bars into the progress and does nothing
[03:16] <idefixx> _Michael: muscle is not everything, hehe. or jsut download while hes at work.
[03:16] <geeksauce> what is the *nix version of SMB?
[03:16] <klobster> no, KDE
[03:16] <ehazlett> NigelS: he wants it uninstalled
[03:16] <Eliphas> ticky: So on the torrent website I right click the torrent file?
[03:16] <|Rkod|> I even left it alone while i took a shower, and it didn't move an inch
[03:16] <Elipsn_> hey guys, is there anyway to share all the comon settings between root and a user? For example, share booksmarks, things like that? desktop background, etc?
[03:16] <klobster> ticky: no KDE
[03:16] <Tarkus> anyone here use banshee music player? im trying to figure out why it gives me this error when i try to import these files: http://img482.imageshack.us/img482/3603/screenshotld0.png
[03:16] <DK_II> !webmin
[03:16] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[03:16] <greyfrog> ehazlett, he's gone :)
[03:16] <docta_v> anyone know where i can get a package that provides flock?
[03:16] <ticky> Eliphas: you downlaod the file, and you do that in your file explorer
[03:16] <|Rkod|> Is anyone listening to me :(
[03:16] <_Michael> idefixx: yup thats what i plan on for the 100-200mb file at least
[03:16] <ehazlett> figures. :)
[03:17] <greyfrog> !patience | |Rkod|
[03:17] <DK_II> hmmm why is webmin no longer supported?
[03:17] <ubotu> |Rkod|: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[03:17] <NigelS> geeksauce: use samba
[03:17] <_Michael> idefixx: is dual booting/triple/quad booting better than a VM?
[03:17] <mik1>  First time using this chat. I need to find out how to set the path for realplayer10gold so cbs.com can find the player.
[03:17] <idefixx> _Michael: its more like files, but you dont have to care about that. ubuntu takes care of that
[03:17] <|Rkod|> I'm  very familiar with IRC ibotu
[03:17] <greyfrog> |Rkod|, what was your question
[03:17] <zerro> is the some one that know how to install ubnutu on hardware sata raid ??
[03:17] <NigelS> mik1: use mplayer mozilla - no need for that awful thing
[03:17] <|Rkod|> I just installed kubuntu with wubi
[03:17] <greyfrog> !ubotu | |
[03:17] <ubotu> |: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[03:17] <_Michael> idefixx: k
[03:17] <|Rkod|> And it installed fine, and the boot loader worked fine as well
[03:17] <greyfrog> !ubotu | |Rkod|
[03:17] <ubotu> |Rkodplease see above
[03:17] <geeksauce> NigelS, but i don't want windows to be able to access my files... only my macs and my friends' macs
[03:17] <obake-san> can anybody help me with getting ubuntu smb shares to be accessible by windows?
[03:18] <|Rkod|> but then it gets stuck at the Kubuntu loading screen, 3 bars into the progress
[03:18] <|Rkod|> i left it alone for 20-25 minutes, with no progress
[03:18] <|Rkod|> I've had debian, redhat, and suse on this machine
[03:18] <NigelS> geeksauce: right - but macs use samba too for sharing
[03:18] <idefixx> _Michael: that depends on what you wanna do... for just trying out an installer i use vm... mostly because i dont have to reboot and im able to listen to music or watch stuff while i install :)
[03:18] <_Michael> idefixx: I have a Celeron 2.2 with 1gb ram and 2 40gb hard drives think i should dual/triple/quad boot instead of a setting up a VM
[03:18] <greyfrog> |Rkod|, try hitting ctrl-alt-F1 to see if there are any errors
[03:18] <NigelS> geeksauce: you can certainly configure an exhaustive list of permitted hosts that are allowed to access your shares in /etc/samba/smb.conf
[03:18] <Ragnaroek> sup
[03:19] <draik> How do I open a COMMAND dialog?
[03:19] <lekremyelse1> ticky: whats GPG?
[03:19] <_Michael> idefixx: I see, which VM would you say?
[03:19] <Ragnaroek> good
[03:19] <|Rkod|> i'll try that and be back
[03:19] <|Rkod|> thank you
[03:19] <geeksauce> NigelS, they CAN, but they use NFS to share with nix computers and other macs
[03:19] <NigelS> draik: apps->accessoroes->terminal
[03:19] <idefixx> _Michael: on linux i use virtual box
[03:19] <_Michael> idefixx: i mean VM software
[03:19] <lekremyelse1> draik: Alt+F2, gnome-terminal
[03:19] <NigelS> geeksauce: you can certainly config NFS if you want too
[03:19] <_Michael> idefixx: well i will be using WindowsXP
[03:19] <ticky> lekremyelse1: Gnu Great Privacy, same as PGP (private great privacy) but free software
[03:19] <idefixx> _Michael: open source free binarys for personal use.. its nice.
[03:19] <idefixx> _Michael: i think there is a windows version, too
[03:19] <_Michael> idefixx: I downloaded VBox today actually for Windows
[03:20] <geeksauce> NigelS, is that difficult to do?
[03:20] <deviantintegral> I have ubuntu running as a media centre with Elisa. How can I get it to automount CD's without a gnome/kde session running?
[03:20] <blueacidfrog> Hello guys i need help with an Video Card in Ubuntu 7.04, if anyone has this card and a little time pleas msg me !
[03:20] <HymnToLife> ticky, GPG = GNU Privacy Guard
[03:20] <_Michael> idefixx: so i guess thats a good idea for me then lol
[03:20] <blueacidfrog> video[Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller @ Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/PM/GMS/910GML Express Processor to DRAM Controller] 
[03:20] <ticky> HymnToLife: you are right
[03:20] <blueacidfrog> its to do with the widescreen problem
[03:20] <draik> NigelS: None of these shortcuts are working for me. I want to run GEDIT as root
[03:20] <HymnToLife> blueacidfrog, why not ask in here ?
[03:20] <_Michael> idefixx: i started to install it and it said something about windows logo and i shouldn't install it but i could or something like that
[03:21] <blueacidfrog> okey
[03:21] <obake-san> can anybody help me with getting ubuntu smb shares to be accessible by windows?
[03:21] <NigelS> geeksauce: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/nfs-server-and-client-configuration-in-ubuntu.html <-- that is a step-by-step guide and it's pretty straightforward
[03:21] <KarlsBerg_> anybody can help me please?  where previos ubuntu versions run good, feisty dont start even the live cd... get xorg caught signal 11. aborting... and cant start..
[03:21] <_Michael> idefixx: have an idea of the error i am talking about
[03:21] <rollerskatejamms> !log
[03:21] <ubotu> Channel logs can be found at http://people.ubuntu.com/~fabbione/irclogs
[03:21] <HymnToLife> !samba | obake-san
[03:21] <ubotu> obake-san: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[03:21] <IndyGunFreak> KarlsBerg_: you'll probably have to try the alternate install CD.
[03:22] <geeksauce> NigelS, thanks :)
[03:22] <lekremyelse1> draik: sudo gedit
[03:22] <rollerskatejamms> is bootstrap.log just a log of the last boot?
[03:22] <_Michael> idefixx: if not then i will start the installation again and copy the error word for word
[03:22] <obake-san> thanks ubotu
[03:22] <NigelS> draik: the terminal is certainly contained inside apps->accessories->terminal in gnome and alt-f2 is certainly the shortcut for the run dialog - are you in Gnome?
[03:22] <HymnToLife> !gksudo | lekremyelse1
[03:22] <ubotu> lekremyelse1: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[03:22] <blueacidfrog> basically the problem with the video[Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller is that i cant get the widescreen option to work ! So now on my laptop i have two black lines on each side of the laptop. Any ideas ?
[03:22] <lekremyelse1> oh  yeah
[03:22] <elm11> ubuntu (feisty) runs perfect on my Dell 3.0 GHz machine. So does Kubuntu (feisty)--However--Kubuntu usually hangs during shutdown. I've reinstalled more than once; on this machine, Kubuntu hangs during shutdown. Anybody suggest a solution?
[03:22] <lekremyelse1> gksu gedit
[03:22] <idefixx> _Michael: no idea, but i guess it might have been the warning that the driver it installs isnt signed or something.
[03:22] <draik> NigelS: I'm sure I'm in GNOME. Believe me, this is not KDE
[03:23] <idefixx> _Michael: usualy nothing bad.. they just dont pay ms to sign a stupid driver.
[03:23] <wastrel> i have ubuntu
[03:23] <NigelS> draik: well then open a terminal and type sudo gedit or alternatively type gksudo gedit in a run dialog
[03:23] <idefixx> _Michael: understanable if you consider they give you the tool for free ;)
[03:23] <_Michael> idefixx: i see, i think it was something like that, i will tell you the extact message though
[03:23] <draik> NigelS: That's just it. I can't get a run dialog
[03:23] <_Michael> idefixx: yeah i see
[03:24] <_Michael> idefixx: def. understandable
[03:24] <NigelS> draik: it's odd that your alt-f key shortcuts don't work
[03:24] <NigelS> draik: you can open a terminal though yes?
[03:24] <NigelS> draik: with the mouse
[03:24] <walrus> how do i create a symbolic link ??
[03:24] <ticky> walrus: ln --help
[03:24] <NigelS> walrus: ln -s at a terminal or middle drag it
[03:24] <wastrel> walrus:  ln -s target linkname
[03:24] <walrus> ticky: thx
[03:24] <draik> NigelS: Yes. I am able to open a terminal.
[03:25] <NigelS> draik: then type sudo gedit to open gedit with root privs
[03:25] <ticky> walrus: you are welcome
[03:25] <Rkod> I'm back
[03:25] <walrus> wastrel: thx
[03:25] <_Michael> idefixx: here is the error/warning
[03:25] <Rkod> it seems that since I started my reinstall of kubuntu with wubi, i can't get to that screen until I'm done
[03:25] <draik> NigelS: I did. What I'm wondering is why I don't have a run dialog
[03:25] <Fezzler> does LiveCD boot to a HFS+ file system?
[03:25] <_Michael> idefixx: it will take a while to type lol
[03:25] <NigelS> draik: earlier you said alt-f3 didn't work either yes?
[03:25] <_Michael> idefixx: i will pm it
[03:25] <draik> NigelS: That is correct
[03:26] <NigelS> draik: do alt-f style shortcuts work in apps?
[03:26] <d3bian> walrus:ln -s /path/to/real/file /path/to/non-existant/file
[03:26] <NigelS> draik: perhaps the wrong keyboard layout is loaded for you?
[03:26] <idefixx> _Michael: go ahead
[03:26] <zerro> how do i install on raid aray ??
[03:26] <draik> NigelS: Could be. I have a Logitech Elite Keyboard
[03:26] <Bacon|ubuntu> Indy, whats the difference between the alternative install and the regular install?
[03:26] <KarlsBerg_> IndyGunFreak,  i never use alternate and run fine (other versions) what diifference have?
[03:27] <Bassetts> why do I have to enter a password into the wallet every time i log in just to get the wireless to work?
[03:27] <draik> NigelS: BRB.. I'm going to restart and see if I did everything ok with the new Splash Screen I chose.
[03:27] <IndyGunFreak> KarlsBerg_: its hard telling...
[03:27] <IndyGunFreak> obviously somethign in the new oneisn't co-operating
[03:27] <deviantintegral> Bassetts: because the password is stored encrypted with your login password
[03:27] <IndyGunFreak> The Alt. Install CD though, itsnot a live cD, its an installer.
[03:27] <KarlsBerg_> and is normal that only suceed with feisy?
[03:27] <bhouncy> ati or nvidia best for ubuntu and beryl?
[03:27] <Bacon|ubuntu> I see
[03:27] <Fezzler> what command line program can I run to tell me how many HD are in this computer?
[03:27] <Bassetts> deviantintegral: is there a way for it to not ask for it, and to just log on to the wlan?
[03:27] <_Michael> idefixx: i just took a screenshot of it lol
[03:27] <d3bian> bhouncy:in my opiion ati
[03:28] <d3bian> *opinion
[03:28] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: sorry, i was talking to karls..
[03:28] <IndyGunFreak> but it answered your question to.
[03:28] <Bacon|ubuntu> Great :D
[03:28] <IndyGunFreak> The alternate install CD is completely text based.
[03:28] <Plantain> When offered a tar vs. an rpm which should I take under Ubuntu?
[03:28] <bhouncy> I have 9800pro and it has never worked 3d for any linux
[03:28] <deviantintegral> Bassetts: I'm assuming the keychain is like the OS X or KDE keychain, in which case it's not possible as the keychain is locked
[03:28] <Mr_Awesome> im trying to install nvidia drivers based on the howto, which tells me to go to the Restricted Drivers Manager, but when i go there, all it does is list a single driver and does not automatically find the nvidia driver that i need
[03:28] <zerro> why is there no one that want to help me ??
[03:28] <IndyGunFreak> its not hard, but when you're gettin goofed by the live CD, the alternate CD will usually install.
[03:28] <idefixx> _Michael: just gimme the url
[03:29] <deviantintegral> Bassetts: unless there is some way to not encrypt your keychain, but that's not a good idea at all
[03:29] <NigelS> Plantain: hmm varies - with a program called alien you can convert the rpm to a deb but you might be better expanding the tar which will poss also then involve you compiling the app
[03:29] <IndyGunFreak> zerro: we're all in another room, telling each othernot to help you
[03:29] <_Michael> idefixx: i was just doing that instead lol, just went to iamgeshack
[03:29] <Plantain> nigelS: In this case it's VMWare
[03:29] <Bacon|ubuntu> Indy, ROFL
[03:30] <_Michael> idefixx: http://img512.imageshack.us/img512/3064/warningpg3.jpg
[03:30] <NigelS> Plantain: vmware is in the repository no?
[03:30] <IndyGunFreak> :)
[03:30] <bhouncy> how you reply to name?
[03:30] <Plantain> NigelS: Not workstation I don't think
[03:30] <pooranimator> Scunizi, r u there ?
[03:30] <pike_> vmware player.. id download the server from vmware's site
[03:30] <Mr_Awesome> when i try change the device from vesa to nvidia in xorg.conf, i get an error that the nvidia module could not be loaded and x doesnt start
[03:30] <idefixx> _Michael: yep what i said.. just install it.
[03:30] <idefixx> _Michael: it just means the driver isnt signed by ms.. prefectly normal for free tools.
[03:30] <_Michael> idefixx: k, wasn't too sure, thats
[03:31] <_Michael> idefixx: thanks*
[03:31] <_Michael> idefixx: I see i understand

[03:32] <Mr_Awesome> how can i get the nvidia drivers for my card on feisty?
[03:32] <Plantain> Speaking of which, I've installed the NVIDIA driver, is that a generic NVIDIA driver (Meaning there's a better ones), or is that the best driver I can have?
[03:32] <_Michael> idefixx: the other day my brother saw me looking at other OS he called me stupid and said Windows is the best your just wasting your time with installing another one
[03:32] <MacDrunk> hello
[03:32] <_Michael> idefixx: i just laughed and walked away

[03:33] <nicklas> rofl
[03:33] <_Michael> he is with computers
[03:33] <NigelS> Plantain: looking a bit into it I think you should get the tar
[03:33] <IndyGunFreak> cam: are you trying to compile it, or are you instaling it via synaptic?
[03:33] <Plantain> Thanks, I will
[03:33] <_Michael> if it works he is lucky bascially lol

[03:34] <novato_br> i'm very help with it
[03:34] <NigelS> Plantain: this is useful - you will need the kernel headers and build essentials (compiler tools) --> http://users.piuha.net/martti/comp/ubuntu/install.html#7
[03:34] <docta_v> is there an ubuntu package that provides flock?
[03:34] <docta_v> as in file lock

[03:34] <novato_br> wow, it's a lot people in here
[03:35] <Plantain> NigelS: Okay, I've got the build essentials, I'll check kernel headers
[03:35] <docta_v> weird that it's not there
[03:35] <_Michael> idefixx: so just use VM until i find the distro that i like and then either dual boot or just use linux
[03:35] <Planet-X> hey guys i have a problem heh
[03:35] <novato_br> it's aswone
[03:35] <Planet-X> video windows won't show video only play audio after i installed Beryl
[03:35] <Planet-X> and run it
[03:35] <Planet-X> what's up with that?
[03:35] <IndyGunFreak> docta_v: open syanptic, and search for Flock, only 3 things come up for me, the first one looks like it might work, but i don't know much about flock
[03:35] <_Michael> idefixx: i will need windowsxp for some programs thats the reason why i would keep it
[03:35] <Bacon|ubuntu> ok
[03:35] <Bacon|ubuntu> indy
[03:35] <Bacon|ubuntu> wish me luck
[03:35] <IndyGunFreak> yo?
[03:35] <idefixx> _Michael: i'd go with dual booting for a while... its allways good to have more than one os. even if the other one is windows
[03:35] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[03:35] <IndyGunFreak> GOOD LUCK
[03:36] <bhouncy> can someone help me. how do reply to someone by name?
[03:36] <Bacon|ubuntu> if it dont work...
[03:36] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: if it screws up, just reboot the live cd, or your hard drive... and come back.
[03:36] <Bacon|ubuntu> I'm going to be pissed
[03:36] <NigelS> bhouncy: start typing their name and press tab to complete it in most clients
[03:36] <Bacon|ubuntu> i have two computers
[03:36] <Bacon|ubuntu> :)))
[03:36] <_Michael> idefixx: lol i like how you put that, even if its windows lol
[03:36] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: well, if ti doesn't work, i'd just stick with Windows for the forseeable future(or until you're willing to re-wire your mbr)
[03:36] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: oh ok.
[03:36] <freak_> irc.langochat.net
[03:36] <bhouncy> NigelS, oooooooooh.. ty

[03:37] <_Michael> idefixx: k thanks, do you know how to setup the vm with 2 hard drives?
[03:37] <bhouncy> _Michael, hi!
[03:37] <Bacon|ubuntu> Indy, I'm trying to get this on my laptop. dont forget, I'm using vista
[03:37] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: oh ok.
[03:38] <_Michael> bhouncy: uh hi
[03:38] <IndyGunFreak> Vista is the devil
[03:38] <IndyGunFreak> !vista
[03:38] <ubotu> vista is the new operating system by the evil overlords from Redmond. For more information, see http://www.badvista.org
[03:38] <bhouncy> Bacon|ubuntu, just testing this tab name thingy
[03:38] <idefixx> _Michael: you'll have to create a virtual harddisk with 'virtual drive manager' its basicly a file where the vm stores its stuff in.
[03:38] <IndyGunFreak> bhouncy: it works quite wel.. :)
[03:38] <idefixx> _Michael: after that just click on new and tell it to boot the cd you want.
[03:38] <bhouncy> IndyGunFreak, :)
[03:38] <_Michael> idefixx: k i see
[03:38] <cam> bhouncy,  lol i learned it too
[03:39] <_Michael> idefixx: so i can tell it to go to either hard drive when i first create it?
[03:39] <bhouncy> cam, lol
[03:39] <blueacidfrog> !915resolution
[03:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about 915resolution - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[03:40] <idefixx> _Michael: like i said you basicly just create a file. its up to you where you save this file to.
[03:40] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: ?
[03:40] <j1tters> anyone know how to get the screensaver to span across both monitors when running twinview?
[03:40] <Bacon|ubuntu> it doesn't see my USB drive
[03:40] <_Michael> idefixx: k, thanks for all the help, i need to go now
[03:40] <IndyGunFreak> you're kidding?
[03:40] <NigelS> Fezzler: no, it's telling you that you ahve 2 partitions
[03:40] <idefixx> _Michael: bye
[03:40] <Bacon|ubuntu> Nope, it says "No disk drive was detected"
[03:40] <Bacon|ubuntu> and I need drivers
[03:40] <IndyGunFreak> well thats not good.
[03:41] <obake-san> sorry, i still need help with smb. i cant figure out what in smb.conf to change in order to have a user and password?
[03:41] <gnychis> after installing ubuntu and rebooting, i get "Grub loading, Error 17" what causes this?
[03:41] <Jordan_U> I am trying to share my internet connection from the device ath0 to the device eth1 using Firestarter but when I try to start the firewall I get an error that "device eth1 is not ready" what does this mean?
[03:41] <fuzzyhair> I need to convert an ogg file to avi or mp4. I know how to with mencoder, but I need to change the scale to 640:480. How can I add a scale change to this command: mencoder movie.ogg -o movie.avi -ovc lavc -oac lavc ?
[03:41] <llol> how do i change the color of how the fonts come out when i remove the "QUIET" command from the boot grub?
[03:41] <IndyGunFreak> gnychis: google Grub error 17.. it will take you to a page that explains grub errors.
[03:41] <IndyGunFreak> fixing it, is another issue...
[03:42] <MacDrunk> i dll netscape how do i install netscape?
[03:42] <MacDrunk> cand find install file
[03:42] <llol> how do i change the font color on the console during boot up
[03:42] <NigelS> MacDrunk: is there a particular reason you want netscape over firefox?
[03:42] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, Why are you installing netscape?
[03:42] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: thas wierd, cuz the alt. installer has always saw my USB drives.
[03:42] <MacDrunk> well firefox wont letme go to my webmail page
[03:42] <Fezzler> Nigels:  HMM.  Not mounting my second HD
[03:42] <MacDrunk> my isp only acepts netscape or IE
[03:43] <cam> what is libqt-mt.so.3
[03:43] <Bacon|ubuntu> I'm trying again
[03:43] <Bacon|ubuntu> with a different usb port
[03:43] <Noah> Is anybody good with WiFi stuff in Ubuntu?
[03:43] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, Change your user agent to netscape, then call your isp and tell them they are idiots :)
[03:43] <MacDrunk> what do you need noah?
[03:43] <Bacon|ubuntu> noah, are you using a usb wifi card?
[03:43] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: hm, i doubt that will help
[03:43] <pooranimator> pooranimator, test
[03:43] <pike_> Noah: if it aint ndiswrapper or wpa :)
[03:43] <idefixx> MacDrunk: dumb isp.. but afaik there are some firefox plugins that let you chose how firefox idents itselfs. making your isp think its netscape.
[03:43] <Noah> BAcon|ubuntu: YEah.
[03:43] <NigelS> MacDrunk: but netscape is effectively the same thing, are they explicitly blocking it? I suggest chaning ISP :) but anyway, what you downloaded will be default go to the desktop I believe if you used the install firefox
[03:43] <Planet-X> hey anyone help me with my video problems?
[03:44] <Jordan_U> !anyone | Planet-X
[03:44] <ubotu> Planet-X: 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?
[03:44] <MacDrunk> hmm
[03:44] <IndyGunFreak> wireless ubuntu, somethign i only see in my dreams.
[03:44] <Bacon|ubuntu> Noah, USB ethernet cards do not work with ubuntu current
[03:44] <Noah> Bacon|ubuntu: Yeah, I am.  With ndiswrapper.  It recognizes my device.
[03:44] <Planet-X> it's like my codecs aren't there, it shows a black screen and i hear the audio, sometimes it flickers a video frame
[03:44] <NigelS> Fezzler: I see; it ought to spot it if you do fdisk -l /dev/sdb (assuming that is its desig) you can examine it
[03:44] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: they work, they just require hoop jumping
[03:44] <MacDrunk> idefixx any ideas where to find those plugins
[03:44] <IndyGunFreak> mainly NDIS wrapper
[03:44] <Noah> Bacon|ubuntu: I'm using Edgy.
[03:44] <Planet-X> vlc, movie player, etc.
[03:44] <idefixx> MacDrunk: also what NigelS said.. change isp :)
[03:44] <MacDrunk> yea right away
[03:44] <Jordan_U> Planet-X, Are you using Compiz / Beryl?
[03:44] <Bacon|ubuntu> Noah, same here, I had the same thing. It recognizes my card, but doesn't work
[03:44] <IndyGunFreak> Noah: well, if it doesn't work in the current version, its probably not gona work in an old version
[03:44] <Planet-X> yup
[03:44] <Planet-X> Beryl

[03:45] <MacDrunk> hey what prog do you use as irc chat?
[03:45] <Noah> Bacon|ubuntu:  Damn.
[03:45] <IndyGunFreak> MacDrunk: xchat.. any other is just a pretender
[03:45] <Noah> Bacon|ubuntu:  There' sn ot possible way for it to work?
[03:45] <Jordan_U> Planet-X, Turn off direct rendering in mplayer
[03:45] <idefixx> MacDrunk: i guess on the firfox plugin page. Tools->Addons GetExtensions.
[03:45] <Planet-X> k
[03:45] <NigelS> MacDrunk: I use irssi
[03:45] <MacDrunk> i have xchat genome
[03:45] <Jordan_U> I am trying to share my internet connection from the device ath0 to the device eth1 using Firestarter but when I try to start the firewall I get an error that "device eth1 is not ready" what does this mean?
[03:45] <NigelS> IndyGunFreak: lies ;)
[03:45] <Noah> Bacon|ubuntu:  My network is even recognized.
[03:45] <IndyGunFreak> NigelS: i swear, you irssi people..lol, yu need your own channel..lol
[03:45] <Fezzler> Nigel: I have a dead iMAc G5 HD I'm trying to recover files from so I tried making in the second drive in my Ubuntu box and ran fdisk -l, no results
[03:45] <novato_br> NigelS, is good this irssi ?
[03:46] <pike_> MacDrunk: gui prog use xchat ssh'd in use irssi
[03:46] <Noah> IndyGunFreak:  What hoops do I have to jump?
[03:46] <NigelS> IndyGunFreak: but then no one would be offering help ;)
[03:46] <idefixx> IndyGunFreak: IRSSI rules all!
[03:46] <novato_br> fuzzyhair, plz, i need your help
[03:46] <MacDrunk> ok
[03:48] <fuzzyhair> novato, yes?
[03:48] <IndyGunFreak> Noah: hoops to jumP?.. sorry, i must have been beign creative, what was i referring to?
[03:48] <MacDrunk> idefixx no addons
[03:48] <NigelS> novato_br: it is good but maybe not for beginners - it's entirely text based
[03:48] <Bacon|ubuntu> ok Indy, it detected my hd
[03:48] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: lol
[03:48] <MacDrunk> need to find some like emulate netscape core or something
[03:48] <IndyGunFreak> I KNEW I WAS RIGHT
[03:48] <Jordan_U> Fezzler, I would recommend running it in target disk mode and recovering the files from another comp if possible.
[03:48] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[03:48] <NigelS> Fezzler: and is the drive seen by your BIOS?
[03:48] <novato_br> yep, NigelS, i like it
[03:48] <idefixx> MacDrunk: what means no addons.. im certain there is a ton of addons there.
[03:48] <novato_br> i use the mIRC
[03:48] <novato_br> heehe
[03:48] <IndyGunFreak> mirc?. is there a linux client for that?
[03:48] <novato_br> sorry
[03:48] <fuzzyhair> novato_br: what do you need?
[03:48] <Noah> IndyGunFreak:  Using USB ethernet cards.
[03:48] <pike_> hes running it in wine :)
[03:48] <novato_br> i'm on win, now
[03:48] <novato_br> but i use xchat on linux version
[03:48] <Blast_Hardcheese> Hey all, I've got a question about Bengali charsets/fonts in webpages, I can't seem to get this one page working.
[03:48] <IndyGunFreak> Noah: oh..., if you've got it setup with NDIS Wrapper.., then it should work, sorry, i don't have any experience with wireless(i sit at a desk)
[03:48] <novato_br> i'm learning about ubuntu distro
[03:48] <Planet-X> jordan i just installed mplayer and direct rendering is turned off.
[03:48] <NigelS> hmmm, good old mIRC - rooting boxes since 1997(tm)
[03:48] <IndyGunFreak> !ndiswrapper
[03:48] <Blast_Hardcheese> Is there some bengali package I can install for these fonts?
[03:48] <Noah> IndyGunFreak:  I do have ti set up with ndiswrapper.
[03:48] <IndyGunFreak> Noah: and its recognized?
[03:48] <novato_br> fuzzyhair, i'd like know about encoding on linux
[03:48] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:48] <Noah> IndyGunFreak:  Yeah, but won't connect with my code.
[03:48] <IndyGunFreak> hmm.
[03:48] <IndyGunFreak> don't know..
[03:48] <Noah> IndyGunFreak:  I got a secure network, that probably has something to do with it.
[03:48] <jona_> What is the recommended download manager???
[03:48] <Noah> IndyGunFreak:  Thank's for the help.
[03:49] <novato_br> fuzzyhair, do you use what is the software?
[03:49] <idefixx> MacDrunk: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/59 addon is called user agend swticher.
[03:49] <IndyGunFreak> Noah: maybe.. you might try Feisty, its supposed to have good support for setting up wireless.. but again, id on't know.. ask around
[03:49] <NigelS> jona_: d4x is a common frontend for wget
[03:49] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: is it installing?
[03:49] <fuzzyhair> novato_br: yes, I use mencoder.
[03:49] <Fezzler> Nigel: did try bios
[03:49] <novato_br> what do you use software to get encodes?
[03:49] <novato_br> mencoder
[03:49] <jona_> THX
[03:50] <Fezzler> just put Ubuntu LiveCD in drawer and booted to it
[03:50] <fuzzyhair> novato: yes, it's in the repositories.
[03:50] <novato_br> fuzzyhair, can you get encode from RAW to h264 ?
[03:50] <CRASH69> any favorite ftp client, and a download manager?
[03:50] <Fezzler> Nigel: should I reboot and access bios?
[03:50] <NigelS> Fezzler: I mean does the defective drive appear in the BIOS even? if it's not seen in HW it certainly won't be seen in software by linux
[03:50] <IndyGunFreak> thats amazing, the live cd booted from your drawer
[03:50] <novato_br> fuzzyhair, do you encode animes?
[03:50] <NigelS> Fezzler: check to see yeah
[03:50] <Blast_Hardcheese> Is there anyone here who knows anything about the charset needed to view www.manabzamin.net? I've been trying for the past couple of hours, I can't seem to get it.
[03:50] <ubuntuDude> hi guys, seems like my ubuntu partition is running out... how do i allocate more space to it from the unused windows partition
[03:50] <Blast_Hardcheese> I'd really appreciate help
[03:50] <ubunt1> !nvidia
[03:50] <Fezzler> Nigel great idea
[03:50] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:50] <fuzzyhair> novato: yes, but you can also use VLC for that.
[03:50] <Jordan_U> CRASH69, wget
[03:50] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntu-rocks: you probably need to look at gparted
[03:50] <pike_> !resize | ubuntuDude
[03:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about resize - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:51] <IndyGunFreak> !gparted
[03:51] <ubotu> GParted is is a !GUI partitioning program. Type  sudo apt-get install gparted  in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[03:51] <pike_> ubuntuDude: gparted is the app you want
[03:51] <Jordan_U> I am trying to share my internet connection from the device ath0 to the device eth1 using Firestarter but when I try to start the firewall I get an error that "device eth1 is not ready" what does this mean?
[03:51] <ubuntuDude> pike_ : is it usable from windows or ubuntu
[03:51] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: did you go with the 32bit installer, or the 64
[03:51] <novato_br> my friends are encoding on win, because they think is even better, but i think that linux is better to encode.
[03:51] <IndyGunFreak> ?
[03:51] <novato_br> fuzzyhair, what do you think ?
[03:51] <pike_> ubuntuDude: from a livecd gparted has its own or linux
[03:51] <fuzzyhair> novato_br: yes, but you can also use VLC for that.
[03:51] <NigelS> Jordan_U: hmm, what is the state of eth1 if you ifconfig eth1
[03:52] <Mr_Awesome> i just upgraded to feisty, but when i boot x fails to start and says "failed to load module "nvidia"". ive tried using the Restricted Drivers Manager, but that does not help. can anybody help me?
[03:52] <fuzzyhair> novato_br: If you are using the same encoder it's the same thing.
[03:52] <pike_> ubuntuDude: consider making /home a sep partition and a sep partition for music and movies at least
[03:52] <mariocesar_bo> hi all, what can i do to replace the art covers from Rhythmbox, with ones from my own ?
[03:52] <Fezzler> Nigel: Bios doesn't see it.  Dead drive?
[03:52] <IndyGunFreak> brb
[03:52] <novato_br> ok
[03:52] <Jordan_U> NigelS, I am just connected to one other comp through a crossover cable
[03:52] <[H] Elipsn> Well this is day two with linux, loving it so far, and figuring it out fast.....can you fella's recommend some cool apps for me to download? utilities you like/use alot? links?
[03:52] <novato_br> but on linux, isn't it more stable enconde?
[03:53] <CRASH69> Jordan_U: ok, thx
[03:53] <pike_> Mr_Awesome: ideally, all you should need to do is 1) sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx  2) sudo nvidia-xconfig
[03:53] <jona_> #ubuntu-ar
[03:53] <MacDrunk> idefixx install super agent but only vista
[03:53] <bobbob> i need help
[03:53] <Jordan_U> CRASH69, Use wget -c and it will continue interrupted downloads
[03:53] <novato_br> fuzzyhair: ubuntu doesn't have a encode channel ?
[03:53] <idefixx> MacDrunk: did you see the addon i linked you?
[03:53] <Mr_Awesome> pike_: i already have nvidia-glx. ill try doing nvidia-xconfig. thanks
[03:53] <NigelS> Fezzler: potentially yeah - you might need a prof to get data off it - one trick that can work is to change the logic board (if that's the faulty component) but it requires a matching controller - in any even unless you have such an identical unit lying around you will prob need to pay someone who does.  THe data might be intact..  Alternatively the reason it doesn't appear in the bios could be due to a bios setting
[03:54] <MacDrunk> yes i use that one
[03:54] <MacDrunk> but once installed says on the install options of super agent vista version
[03:54] <Fezzler> Nigel: ever hear of putting drive in zip lock and freezer and then booting?
[03:55] <NigelS> Fezzler: yes :)
[03:55] <fuzzyhair> novato_br: it's pretty much the same. Encoding is a hourly process, not years. The stability would not really matter. I think it's actually easier to encode in Windows, because Windows has SUPER
[03:55] <NigelS> Fezzler: I'm not convinced I've ever seen it work, though I've seen it tried
[03:55] <fuzzyhair> novato_br: I don't know about ubuntu having a channel like that?
[03:55] <NigelS> Fezzler: the prob is, if that doesnt work - it sure as hell won't work again :)
[03:56] <bobbob> ok like
[03:56] <bobbob> im trying to install ubuntu
[03:56] <bobbob> or even just get the live cd to load
[03:56] <idefixx> MacDrunk: does it? seems to work for me... gimme a sec
[03:56] <bobbob> but it wont load on this computer
[03:56] <bobbob> it just contines to load windows
[03:56] <bobbob> i changed it in the F12
[03:56] <bobbob> boot sequence
[03:56] <bobbob> all that
[03:56] <bobbob> still nothing
[03:56] <MacDrunk> i know why is not working
[03:56] <bobbob> why
[03:57] <MacDrunk> user agent is for a older version of firefox i have the newest one
[03:57] <novato_br> don't you think stability is matter?
[03:57] <novato_br> i do
[03:57] <bobbob> can anyone help me
[03:57] <pike_> bobbob: livecd is a headache if it doesnt just work. id use the alternate install cd
[03:57] <geeksauce> ok guys, i seriously screwed up.  upstairs on the box i was just on, i disabled the nvidia driver and after a reboot i can't see anything on that computer
[03:57] <bobbob> i have that too
[03:57] <Jordan_U> bobbob, Are you sure the CD burned correctly, and did you just put the .iso file on the disk or did you burn the disk from the iso image?
[03:57] <novato_br> because on linux, i can run a lot things while windows i can't run them
[03:57] <NigelS> bobbob: when you burnt the disc was it made bootable? some software seems to need to do that
[03:57] <bobbob> yes i am
[03:57] <pike_> bobbob: oh nevermind you just need to boot cd
[03:57] <idefixx> MacDrunk: 2.0.0.4 is the newest one as far as i know.
[03:57] <bobbob> i know the diff between image and iso
[03:58] <IndyGunFreak> geeksauce: you probably need to recongifure x-server
[03:58] <MacDrunk> yea
[03:58] <Fezzler> Nigel: Thanks.  I think I have to resign myself to fact that this drive is bad and I learned a hard lesson re: backups
[03:58] <Jordan_U> bobbob, Do other bootable CDs work?
[03:58] <xipietotec> how do I convert a .bz to a .tar?
[03:58] <NigelS> Fezzler: :(
[03:58] <bobbob> nope.. none on this pc
[03:58] <bobbob> but they work on my other
[03:58] <NigelS> xipietotec: bunzip
[03:58] <idefixx> MacDrunk: works perfectly over here.
[03:58] <pike_> xipietotec: tar isnt compressed you want tar.gz?
[03:58] <MacDrunk> brr
[03:58] <geeksauce> IndyGunFreak: how can i do that if i'm getting anything on teh display?
[03:58] <bobbob> other pc is a compaq... this is s a dell
[03:58] <MacDrunk> nevermind
[03:58] <idefixx> MacDrunk: justed check my webserver logs
[03:58] <xipietotec> NigelS, I know bunzip, I don't know the command syntax
[03:58] <bobbob> for some reason i cant get it to work
[03:58] <MacDrunk> ok
[03:59] <MacDrunk> give
[03:59] <Jordan_U> bobbob, Do you have a floppy drive?
[03:59] <bobbob> nope
[03:59] <bobbob> wait
[03:59] <IndyGunFreak> geeksauce: you're not getting an error or anything, most the time on a driver prob, it'll kick you to a CLI
[03:59] <DerangedDingo> can someone instruct me on how to use vncviewer? my friend is running a vncserver, and I have the tcp port being used but it says it can't convert the argument to a host address
[03:59] <bobbob> no no i dont
[03:59] <xipietotec> pike_, either or is fine, I just need to convert it from .bz so the theme manager will recognize the package
[03:59] <Jordan_U> bobbob, Can you boot from USB?
[03:59] <Mr_Awesome> pike_: that made an improvement, but apparently the nvidia kernel module failed to load
[03:59] <bobbob> i tried to
[03:59] <bobbob> i wont work for either of my external usb hdd .. or a flash drive
[03:59] <_Brett_> where can i get a list of the packages on the current ubuntu release?
[03:59] <MacDrunk> idenfixx
[03:59] <geeksauce> geeksauce: i heard the login screen sound play but the screen is black
[03:59] <geeksauce> oops
[03:59] <wastrel> !packages | _Brett_
[03:59] <ubotu> _Brett_: You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, "apt-cache search <keywords>", the "apt:/" URL in KDE, or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu has about 20000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways!
[04:00] <Tarkus> anyone here use banshee music player? im trying to figure out why it gives me this error when i try to import these files: http://img482.imageshack.us/img482/3603/screenshotld0.png
[04:00] <Tarkus> any ideas?
[04:00] <geeksauce> indygunfreak: screen is all black
[04:00] <Jordan_U> bobbob, You could try wubuntu, the unofficial .exe installer, but that is still beta
[04:00] <_Brett_> does it come with all the needed tools for writing mono apps?
[04:00] <IndyGunFreak> geeksauce: hm, thats not good.
[04:00] <bobbob> its tickin me off...
[04:00] <bobbob> i really wanted to install ubuntu
[04:00] <bobbob> :  (
[04:00] <Jordan_U> bobbob, You could try wubuntu, the unofficial .exe installer, but that is still beta
[04:01] <bobbob> i saw that...
[04:01] <NigelS> xipietotec: just bunzip2 should do it. tar -xjvf passes it through bunzip2 first and then untars it
[04:01] <geeksauce> indygunfreak: i heard the login screen noise play when it finished booting up
[04:01] <IndyGunFreak> geeksauce: hmm, that sounds even worse..lol
[04:01] <geeksauce> indygunfreak: but no CLI
[04:01] <MacDrunk> hey
[04:01] <Bacon|ubuntu> ok
[04:01] <Bacon|ubuntu> Indy, round five
[04:01] <MacDrunk> anyone here knows a good cellphone wholesaler???
[04:02] <Bacon|ubuntu> if this doesn't work
[04:02] <bobbob> any other ideas
[04:02] <Bacon|ubuntu> I'm dropping linux
[04:02] <bobbob> maybe im doing something wrong
[04:02] <MacDrunk> no
[04:02] <geeksauce> indygunfreak what should i do?
[04:02] <MacDrunk> bacon
[04:02] <MacDrunk> what ya need
[04:02] <IndyGunFreak> geeksauce: you got me
[04:02] <Bacon|ubuntu> MacDrunk, I have a USB HDD
[04:02] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: i don't see why it wouldn't work
[04:02] <Bacon|ubuntu> I want to install linux on there
[04:02] <MacDrunk> whats the prob bacon
[04:02] <Bacon|ubuntu> for grub
[04:02] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: is it installing?
[04:02] <xipietotec> thankyou NigelS =)
[04:02] <Bacon|ubuntu> indy, working on it now
[04:02] <bobbob> for some reason it wont let me boot to a usb device..
[04:02] <bobbob> like an external hdd
[04:02] <MacDrunk> hmm on a usb hdd and have win on other hdd
[04:03] <Bacon|ubuntu> Yes, mac
[04:03] <NigelS> bobbob: this isn't an ubuntu issue per se, you're just having trouble booting off a CD - this could be because the CD wasn't burnt properly or some issue with the BIOS
[04:03] <Bacon|ubuntu> But i took the win hdd out
[04:03] <geeksauce> indygunfreak is there some kind of key combo i can hold down at bootup that will force CLI?
[04:03] <Bacon|ubuntu> cause I didn't want grub installed on hd0
[04:03] <NigelS> xipietotec: np
[04:03] <Bacon|ubuntu> Does that make sense?
[04:03] <Snyperx> Evening everyone.
[04:03] <bobbob> its not the cd... it works fine on other pcs
[04:03] <MacDrunk> hmm why don you install a boot loader on hd0 and the ubunto on the hdd usb drive
[04:03] <MacDrunk> ???
[04:03] <Plantain> will apt-get upgrade update *all* my packages, or update my whole OS to the next OS above?
[04:03] <wastrel> geeksauce:  you can hit esc when grub is loading , get the grub menu and choose the recovery image
[04:03] <Snyperx> Does anyone know when Ubuntu will use WPA security?
[04:03] <Bacon|ubuntu> because I'm running vista on the hd0
[04:03] <IndyGunFreak> MacDrunk: because he has vista.
[04:04] <Plantain> I just want to do an update of all my package from the cmdline rather than synaptic
[04:04] <bobbob> so i mean
[04:04] <NigelS> bobbob: then there's something up with the drive/bios settings if it's not even reading the disc before booting windows's bootloader
[04:04] <wastrel> geeksauce:  do you get a console with ctrl-alt-f1 ?
[04:04] <Plantain> Snyperx: it does already
[04:04] <MacDrunk> hmm so do as i do
[04:04] <bobbob> in the bios i changed the boot process
[04:04] <bobbob> still nothing
[04:04] <Snyperx> Really?
[04:04] <Toma-> Bacon|ubuntu: sounds like a tricky install
[04:04] <bobbob> changed it to ide cd drive
[04:04] <Bacon|ubuntu> AND, I'd like to port my USB drive to any machine, and just point the BIOS to my usb and not have to worry about grub all the time
[04:04] <Snyperx> Where are the setting located?
[04:04] <Bacon|ubuntu> Toma, it is
[04:04] <Plantain> Yeah, I believe so
[04:04] <MacDrunk> burn an old laptop and use it to run linux
[04:04] <geeksauce> wastrel: hang on.. lemme run try that
[04:04] <NigelS> Plantain: use apt-get dist-upgrade if you want to do it that way] 
[04:04] <Jordan_U> Planet-X, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade will update all your packages
[04:04] <Plantain> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo
[04:04] <Bacon|ubuntu> Problem is, ubuntu has problems installing grub to sda, which is the designation for my usb drive
[04:05] <Snyperx> Thanks I'll have a read
[04:05] <geeksauce> wastrel, if that works, what should i do to reconfigure x?
[04:05] <Toma-> Bacon|ubuntu: my opinion, make the Vista bootloader look for grub, that will be installed onto the usb hdd. dont put grub on the MBR
[04:05] <Plantain> NigelS: So use apt-get dist-upgrade wont update me to 7.10 (I don't want that)?
[04:05] <Jordan_U> NigelS, No, apt-get dist-upgrade will still just give you the newest packages for the version you are currently running
[04:05] <wastrel> geeksauce:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:05] <Bacon|ubuntu> Toma?
[04:05] <Plantain> Okay, thanks
[04:05] <Bacon|ubuntu> vista bootloader can detect grub?
[04:05] <MacDrunk> nopw
[04:05] <geeksauce> wastrel: k brb
[04:05] <MacDrunk> nope user agent is not working for me
[04:05] <wastrel> geeksauce:  if this is a fresh install you might want sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade  first
[04:05] <Toma-> Bacon|ubuntu: no, it will pass the boot process to the USB drive, then grub will burst to life
[04:05] <wastrel> so as to have the freshest packages.
[04:05] <wastrel> (it will take a while)
[04:06] <bobbob> like
[04:06] <Bacon|ubuntu> You do that through bios by having the usb drive as first priority
[04:06] <Bacon|ubuntu> YES
[04:06] <Bacon|ubuntu> I know
[04:06] <bobbob> when windows is already booted
[04:06] <bobbob> and i put in the live cd..
[04:06] <NigelS> Jordan_U: yes I know, my point was that dist-upgrade is a more sensible option than upgrade in terms of maintaining packages
[04:06] <bobbob> it loades it and comes up
[04:06] <bobbob> has a button that says .. boot live cd
[04:06] <bobbob> but it wont let me click it
[04:06] <incandenzian> I've downloaded everything needed to play movies encoded with Divx/XViD, but Totem keeps saying it can't play them because of the absence of those codecs/support for those codecs.
[04:06] <MacDrunk> boob
[04:06] <IndyGunFreak> Toma-: you're a bit late, the installer kept crashing when trying to put grub on the usb drive
[04:06] <NigelS> Plantain: it won't update to the next version unless your sources are set to the next version
[04:06] <bobbob> mes macdrunk
[04:06] <incandenzian> what gives?
[04:06] <Plantain> Okay, thanks
[04:06] <bobbob> *yes
[04:06] <IndyGunFreak> he tried that for a couple hours..lol
[04:06] <Toma-> IndyGunFreak: ahh.

[04:07] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: i know.. cuz they install grub the same way
[04:07] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: Unable to install grub. This is a fatal error
[04:07] <Jordan_U> Planet-X, Then you have the newest versions of everything
[04:07] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: are you getting that version now, or did that happen earlier?
[04:07] <Planet-X> videos work fine without Beryl
[04:07] <Planet-X> was reading on google, people are having this problem anyway
[04:08] <Bacon|ubuntu> I have it on a disk
[04:08] <Bacon|ubuntu> and I'm installing it right now
[04:08] <Planet-X> if i dont run it the videos and audio work from a .avi, but if i run beryl the video goes black.
[04:08] <Bacon|ubuntu> 6% through
[04:08] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: oh ok.. what version are you installing... 6.06, 6.10, or 7.04?

[04:09] <Planet-X> hmm the other one's Totem
[04:09] <Planet-X> and there's no option for it.
[04:09] <Bacon|ubuntu> i386

[04:09] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: are you sure?
[04:09] <Jordan_U> Planet-X, I don't know how to change it in totem, you probably need to change it in gstreamer since that is what totem uses
[04:09] <Toma-> myusrnm: you need realplayer, better yet, something that decodes realaudio to something good
[04:09] <Bacon|ubuntu> I'm sure
[04:09] <Scz1> hi, is it possible to burn a dvd from the same drive that I am running feisty live cd?

[04:11] <darwich> Hello, I have installed Beryl XGL, but to get everything working 'properly' I have to start up a terminal, and type in the command " beryl-xgl --use-copy
[04:11] <darwich> " To get Beryl working, and everytime I do so, the Topbar of the windows disappear, so I cant either move, resize, minimize, or close them. Anyone got a solution for this problem? Thanks.
[04:11] <bobbob> is mac still here
[04:11] <Scz1> jordan_u: I see the paradox, but I'm stuck. I have 1gig.. do you have a link to a doc somewhere?

[04:11] <Planet-X> Jordan_U: not a big deal, don't bother helping me fix it. i will play videos before i use beryl that's all.
[04:11] <Bacon|ubuntu> still installing software
[04:12] <IndyGunFreak> oh ok
[04:12] <wastrel> geeksauce:  also, you may want to   sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade    if this is a fresh install, to get the latest updates
[04:12] <Bacon|ubuntu> Things take time indy
[04:12] <geeksauce> wastrel: just that command by itself?
[04:12] <wastrel> (it will take a while)
[04:12] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: wel, if anything, i think you win the "most problematic install" of the day award..lol
[04:12] <bobbob> I NEED HELP
[04:12] <neil_feisty> how do i mount a floppy drive in ubuntu
[04:12] <wastrel> geeksauce:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:12] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: no big deal... my ankle's broken right now, i can't do much else than sit here.
[04:12] <Bacon|ubuntu> Peachy my dear indy....peachy

[04:13] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: easy..
[04:13] <MacDrunk> my isp only acepts ie or netscapr browsers
[04:13] <MacDrunk> dam
[04:13] <Jordan_U> Scz1, Actually, you may be able to do it with a GIG of ram as long as you use the CD version of knoppix, just start it with the "toram" cheat code and it will load the CD into RAM and boot completely from RAM, then you can eject the CD and do whatever you want with the drive :)
[04:13] <NigelS> Bacon|ubuntu: he presses tab to complete it? :)
[04:13] <geeksauce> wastrel: brb again
[04:13] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: hit the first few letters of my name(for instance, Indy).. then hit tab.. and it will auto complete my name
[04:13] <gnomefreak> Bacon|ubuntu: tab
[04:13] <Bacon|ubuntu> Bacon|ubuntu
[04:13] <Bacon|ubuntu> I see...
[04:13] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, Did you try user agent switcher?
[04:13] <Bacon|ubuntu> just like linux
[04:13] <MacDrunk> yes
[04:13] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:13] <MacDrunk> and wont work
[04:13] <Pelo> borderline off topic but ... does anyone know any myst like quest for linux ?
[04:13] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: thats pretty cool
[04:13] <bobbob> anyoen have any sugestions for me
[04:13] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, Try IE4linux
[04:13] <bobbob> i cant get ubuntu to even load
[04:13] <bobbob> or install
[04:13] <MacDrunk> ok
[04:14] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: yeah, plus it highlights the text for the person you're sending it to.
[04:14] <darwich> " To get Beryl working, and everytime I do so, the Topbar of the windows disappear, so I cant either move, resize, minimize, or close them. Anyone got a solution for this problem? Thanks.
[04:14] <IndyGunFreak> also sounds a bell, if you've got it configured
[04:14] <Scz1> jordan_u: ok, I think I have an older one. I'll try that.. thanks very much!
[04:14] <Pelo> bobbob,  can you get as far as the boot menu ?
[04:14] <Bacon|ubuntu> Not on mIRC it doesn't
[04:14] <NigelS> bobbob: no you can't get a CD to boot - this is somewhat different - will any CD boot in this PC?
[04:14] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: cuz mirc sucks..lol, when you get ubuntu installed, try xchat
[04:14] <wastrel> darwich:  ask on #ubuntu-effects
[04:14] <Tarkus> anyone here use banshee music player? im trying to figure out why it gives me this error when i try to import these files: http://img482.imageshack.us/img482/3603/screenshotld0.png
[04:14] <bthornton> I'm running Feisty on x86_64; what are my options for running an NX/Nomachine client so that I can have a remote X session?  The Feisty packages from www.nomachine.com are i386 only.
[04:14] <Bacon|ubuntu> Indy, when...
[04:14] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page
[04:14] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: i'm confident..lol
[04:14] <Bacon|ubuntu> I have ubuntu on this current computer
[04:14] <Bacon|ubuntu> with a linux/xp grub complex
[04:14] <MacDrunk> im on it
[04:14] <Bacon|ubuntu> So i know how the install goes
[04:14] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: then why do you use mirc?...
[04:15] <IndyGunFreak> xchat rox.
[04:15] <novato_br> fuzzyhair, how many long time do you use mencode ?
[04:15] <StreetSpirit> question- im a linux newbie.. completely.. i can use a shell but have never installed a copy.. if i want to dual boot,
[04:15] <Bacon|ubuntu> cause I have USB nic card
[04:15] <Bacon|ubuntu> which deson't work
[04:15] <StreetSpirit> and already have xp loaded, how would i go about it?
[04:15] <IndyGunFreak> ah.. yeah those are fun
[04:15] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: fun to say the least
[04:15] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: if i were you, i'd buy a cable/dsl modem that wasn't usb, so i could use internet access under Ubuntu
[04:15] <StreetSpirit> anyone? will ubuntu recognize the windows xp boot info or will there be fire and brimstone :)
[04:16] <Bacon|ubuntu> its not the cable/dsl
[04:16] <IndyGunFreak> fire and brimstone
[04:16] <StreetSpirit> hehe
[04:16] <Bacon|ubuntu> its just the wireless card
[04:16] <StreetSpirit> how would i go about it ?
[04:16] <Bacon|ubuntu> wireless USB nic
[04:16] <IndyGunFreak> oh ok.
[04:16] <idnzor2> hi, i was wondering where the default location for tomcat apps wre in ubuntu - i have always used apache which sotres them in /var/www
[04:16] <Bacon|ubuntu> ndiswrapper does nother
[04:16] <Bacon|ubuntu> madwifi
[04:16] <IndyGunFreak> StreetSpirit: it should recognize your windows partition w/o any probs.
[04:16] <Bacon|ubuntu> does nothing either
[04:16] <greyfrog> !dualboot | StreetSpirit

[04:16] <idnzor2> i am using tomcat 5.5 and ubuntu 7.04
[04:16] <StreetSpirit> IndyGunFreak: thanks
[04:16] <StreetSpirit> thanks greyfrog
[04:16] <StreetSpirit> perfect
[04:17] <idefixx> Jordan_U: wow i just googled ie4linux... now im sad :(
[04:17] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: is it finished installing yet?
[04:17] <StreetSpirit> lets give it a try.. one other minor question- i have a mess of drives connected.. will it recognize usb and firewire drives/have drivers for em?
[04:17] <cotyrothery> how can i make wow look better on my computer
[04:17] <StreetSpirit> all are formatted to ntfs, i'll be able to read them, correct
[04:17] <StreetSpirit> ?
[04:17] <cotyrothery> it looks like crap
[04:17] <Bacon|ubuntu> wow?
[04:17] <Jordan_U> idefixx, Why are you sad?
[04:17] <pike_> StreetSpirit: thats usually the easy part.
[04:17] <Bob_le_Pointu> Use Windows.
[04:18] <greyfrog> StreetSpirit, at the least you should be able to read them
[04:18] <cotyrothery> world of warcraft
[04:18] <IndyGunFreak> wow?... world of warcraft
[04:18] <StreetSpirit> gotcha, thank you pike_
[04:18] <StreetSpirit> good
[04:18] <novato_br> dudes, do you know what I can't understand ???
[04:18] <gnychis> should you install stuff through apt-get or aptitude? or doesn't it matter?
[04:18] <cotyrothery> yeah should i get more ram
[04:18] <Bacon|ubuntu> Get wine...
[04:18] <idefixx> Jordan_U: hehe ;), didnt know there was somthing like that.
[04:18] <IndyGunFreak> novato_br: ?
[04:18] <PurpZeY> cotyrothery: How are you running it?
[04:18] <NigelS> StreetSpirit: you can read and also write with ntfs-3g (apt-get instal ntfs-config to get ntfs-3g and a useful GUI config tool)
[04:18] <cotyrothery> i was
[04:18] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: wine is very hit miss... moostly miss
[04:18] <pike_> gnychis: only hippies use aptitude :)
[04:18] <cotyrothery> but i looks horrible
[04:18] <StreetSpirit> 512KB of ram is enough for ubuntu, correct? p4 2.8/512KB or should i use a better pc?
[04:18] <cotyrothery> it
[04:18] <wastrel> gnychis:  personal preference
[04:18] <Bacon|ubuntu> Any other alternative?
[04:18] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak?
[04:18] <IndyGunFreak> pike_: "do you have a tye died t-shirt i can use.
[04:18] <cotyrothery> i have 254 mb of ram
[04:18] <cotyrothery> could that be it
[04:18] <StreetSpirit> NigelS- will note that, thanks
[04:19] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: did the install work?
[04:19] <pike_> StreetSpirit: my box is 512 sempron 1.6 ghz
[04:19] <NigelS> StreetSpirit: that's fine yeah, though as with all things the more RAM, generally the better the experience
[04:19] <novato_br> if the linux is developing by a lot people around of world, it should be very optimized, but it's not
[04:19] <StreetSpirit> ah cool
[04:19] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: still installing 40%
[04:19] <novato_br> why?
[04:19] <Toma-> StreetSpirit: i hope you mean 512MB...
[04:19] <StreetSpirit> hehe
[04:19] <IndyGunFreak> oh, thought you said it was at 96%.
[04:19] <pike_> IndyGunFreak: make your own
[04:19] <MacDrunk> jordan u
[04:19] <StreetSpirit> yeah that too :)
[04:19] <penos> whats mean ubuntu
[04:19] <Bacon|ubuntu> I'm installing it on a 4200rpm 30gb hitachi hdd
[04:19] <penos> ???
[04:19] <IndyGunFreak> pike_: lol..
[04:19] <greyfrog> novato_br, actually it is...
[04:19] <MacDrunk> did you did that to make it work?
[04:19] <StreetSpirit> actually i miss my 4KB timex sinclair, but thats another topic :)
[04:19] <greyfrog> novato_br, just not on your box ;)
[04:19] <Rkod> Hello, I just tried to install ubuntu with Wubi
[04:19] <Toma-> StreetSpirit: sure :) for better performance tho, id say use XFCE. but really, 512 is enough to run gnome
[04:19] <StreetSpirit> cool
[04:19] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: oh ok... i've got LInux on a 250gig 7200rpm WD
[04:19] <Rkod> And it gets stuck at the startup screen, and I cant read any  error messages because they blaze by really fast
[04:20] <sin18> i installed the vlc and mozilla-plugin-vlc (using adept); do i need to do other steps for firefox to be using vlc as default player ?
[04:20] <Jordan_U> gnychis, They both use dpkg so the only main differences are that aptitude has a curses interface and automatically removes dependencies, but as of Edgy you can use apt-get autoremove to do the same thing
[04:20] <Toma-> *checks how much ram he has*
[04:20] <novato_br> i'm go out from windows, because i belive the windows is not very optimized for my PC
[04:20] <StreetSpirit> i prefer gnome, more comfortable in it than kde..
[04:20] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: came with a sweet leather case tho
[04:20] <Toma-> StreetSpirit: i have 512mb of ram here actually. using gnome and running all sorts of stuff
[04:20] <Rkod> Anyone have any idea about what could be happening? the instalation went fine in all aspects, and now there's this problem
[04:20] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: cool.
[04:20] <Bacon|ubuntu> Rkod, whats wrong?
[04:20] <StreetSpirit> great, thats usually what i end up doing, and i've just about had it witn windows
[04:21] <fuzzyhair> novato_br: sorry for the long time reply, probably a couple of months
[04:21] <Rkod> Not sure yet really
[04:21] <StreetSpirit> with*
[04:21] <Toma-> uptime: 3days and 11 hours and no slow downs! wewhew!
[04:21] <runixd> Does anybody know why would the "Notification" icons randomly come off the gnome panel ?
[04:21] <Rkod> It doesn't start up well
[04:21] <Bacon|ubuntu> Rkod: any errors?
[04:21] <IndyGunFreak> StreetSpirit: first, a a root canal is more comfortable than KDE
[04:21] <MacDrunk> jordan u do i add the lines at the botton of the file
[04:21] <Rkod> It gets stuck at the startup screen at the third bar
[04:21] <MacDrunk> ???
[04:21] <StreetSpirit> everyday a new problem, needs constant reboots..
[04:21] <yurimxpxman> sorry if this seems a little off-topic, but does anybody know where I could find UNIX System V for download?
[04:21] <IndyGunFreak> 2nd, Gnome and Xfce are extremely similar.
[04:21] <StreetSpirit> hehehee true that IndyGunFreak
[04:21] <Bacon|ubuntu> Rkod: It doesn't start up well? Is it sick?
[04:21] <Rkod> and as far as errors, it keeps going really fast, can't read it
[04:21] <Toma-> up to my 18,000th process aswell
[04:21] <Rkod> I let it stand for 34 minutos with nothing happening
[04:21] <Rkod> minutes*
[04:21] <gnychis> Jordan_U: so could I install with apt-get and uninstall with aptitude to get rid of dependencies also?  (aside from the apt-get autoremove feature)
[04:21] <Bacon|ubuntu> Rkod: at what point does this happen?
[04:21] <StreetSpirit> im trying to run an astronomical ftp server, and even though it's running well, the bandwidth utilization utterly sucks.. can't touch the swin in windows ... :(
[04:22] <IndyGunFreak> i tried kDE again the other day, and it lasted all of about 35min before my retinas were burning and i was back in Gnome.
[04:22] <Felarin> lol
[04:22] <runixd> Does anybody know why would the "Notification" icons randomly come off the gnome panel ?
[04:22] <Felarin> GRRRRRRRRRRRR i say GRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!
[04:22] <StreetSpirit> time to get to work
[04:22] <Rkod> third bar in the startup, after I choose the ubuntu boot option, it says "boot..." and then takes me to a balck screen with 3 people holding hands, and the words "Ubuntu" and a loading bar
[04:22] <IndyGunFreak> Rkod: what ar eyou doing, installing ubuntu?
[04:22] <Toma-> Rooar!
[04:22] <Bacon|ubuntu> runixd: Interval for 15 minutes
[04:22] <Rkod> I installed it with wibu, i'm trying to start it up
[04:22] <IndyGunFreak> wibu?
[04:22] <IndyGunFreak> !wibu
[04:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wibu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:22] <runixd> Bacon|ubuntu, intervals ?
[04:22] <Rkod> Wubi
[04:22] <Jordan_U> gnychis, No, I think that both programs are only able to auto remove dependencies of packages that they themselves installed, so I would stick to using one or the other
[04:23] <IndyGunFreak> !wubi
[04:23] <ubotu> wubi is an unofficial Ubuntu installer for Windows users - more info is at http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[04:23] <Bacon|ubuntu> runixd: sorry wrong answer =/
[04:23] <IndyGunFreak> hmm, *unofficial*?
[04:23] <Toma-> !wubi
[04:23] <Bacon|ubuntu> Rkod: by guess is a bad distro
[04:23] <Jordan_U> IndyGunFreak, See also: Beta
[04:23] <Rkod> It's very popular, and this isn't my fist time installing linux
[04:23] <gnychis> Jordan_U: cool thanks, any suggestion on either? personal fav?
[04:23] <IndyGunFreak> Jordan_U: i gathered.. :)
[04:23] <Rkod> Just first time with ubuntu
[04:23] <StreetSpirit> !wubi
[04:23] <ubotu> wubi is an unofficial Ubuntu installer for Windows users - more info is at http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[04:23] <Rkod> And when i try to download Kubuntu.. it goes at 2 kb/s
[04:23] <Jordan_U> gnychis, I like apt-get myself :)
[04:23] <Bacon|ubuntu> Rkod: I would say reinstall with a different LiveCD
[04:23] <StreetSpirit> cool
[04:24] <IndyGunFreak> Rkod: 2kb?... ar eyou on dial up?
[04:24] <Wolf6969> Hey... I'm having some trouble installing ubuntu on my laptop... when I choose "start or install ubuntu" ot loads some stuff, and then says that it was unable to start the x server.. but I haven't even installed it yet... anyone knows what's wrong?
[04:24] <gnychis> Jordan_U: :D thats what i've been using, so i'll just stick with it
[04:24] <StreetSpirit> do you guys think i should use wubi or just go with a regular install ?
[04:24] <lxgg> Hi
[04:24] <Rkod> I'm not using a liveCD, i'm using wubi, because I wanted to try the whole "Forget about repartitioning" ideal
[04:24] <Rkod> it automatically gets the ISO from ubuntu
[04:24] <PurpZeY> StreetSpirit: If you just want to test out Ubuntu, why not run a live CD?
[04:24] <Jordan_U> Wolf6969, What kind of GFX card do you have?
[04:24] <IndyGunFreak> Rkod: well, sometimes new isn't always better, and easiest isn't always so.
[04:24] <Bacon|ubuntu> Rkod: I'm not informed on wubi
[04:24] <StreetSpirit> ive done that, it's a lot of fun :)
[04:24] <yurimxpxman> does anybody know where I could find UNIX System V for download?
[04:24] <StreetSpirit> ready to move on to the next step :/
[04:24] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: Philosophy wont help the man
[04:24] <Bacon|ubuntu> lol
[04:24] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:24] <Rkod> this PC has 730 GB of stuff  I can't back up, so i can't lose that
[04:25] <Wolf6969> ATI radeon
[04:25] <StreetSpirit> this pc has 1.5tb
[04:25] <MacDrunk> jordan u
[04:25] <Rkod> Congrats
[04:25] <Bacon|ubuntu> I'm sorry IndyGunFreak that was too funny
[04:25] <StreetSpirit> nothing but the os partition is backed up :)
[04:25] <IndyGunFreak> 1.5tb?
[04:25] <greyfrog> Wolf6969, it sounds like there is hardware on your laptop that ubuntu can't handle... try including your laptop specs in your questions and ask again
[04:25] <StreetSpirit> yeppers
[04:25] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: iknow, it was..
[04:25] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, Yes?
[04:25] <StreetSpirit> just bought two seagate 7200.10's recently
[04:25] <StreetSpirit> each 500gigs sata 3.0
[04:25] <MacDrunk> what if i have festy verion os ubunto and not edgy like it says in the file
[04:25] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: no need to be sorry, i'm pretty laid back, in case you've not figured that out.
[04:25] <PurpZeY> StreetSpirit: You can run the liveCD without installing or anything else...it will just give you a little demo, if that's what you are looking for.
[04:25] <StreetSpirit> i know
[04:26] <greyfrog> Wolf6969, the hardware may just need special treatment ;)
[04:26] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: your laid backness has kept me sane the last, oh, 4 hours.
[04:26] <StreetSpirit> ive ran it , i actually want to do an install and get off windows or at least try to
[04:26] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: lol
[04:26] <StreetSpirit> but thanks PurpZeY
[04:26] <StreetSpirit> i thinks ill try that wubi thingie
[04:26] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: well hopefully it works this time.
[04:26] <StreetSpirit> :)
[04:26] <Wolf6969> greyfrog: in english for stupid people? :)
[04:26] <Rkod> Is there another way to install ubuntu/kubuntu without compromising data?
[04:26] <IndyGunFreak> but how many times did i say, "alternate install CD?"?
[04:26] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:26] <Rkod> Prefferably kubuntu
[04:26] <lxgg> I got a problem with reading and writing a file, i think. I edited a script with sudo and saved it in /etc/init.de --> now i want to change the permission so that i can execute the file. How do I do that ? is it "chmod +rx resolution.sh" ?
[04:26] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: you owe me 1 memorex music CD-R
[04:26] <Bacon|ubuntu> if otherwise
[04:26] <IndyGunFreak> lol, ok
[04:26] <scales11> hello does anyone know how to uninstall the madwifi drivers so i can use ndiswrapper
[04:27] <StreetSpirit> better pay up, he's serious too!
[04:27] <greyfrog> Wolf6969, hehe ;) what brand of laptop?  what kind of GFX card? you said ATI but what kind of ATI?
[04:27] <Clinton__> !webcam
[04:27] <ubotu> Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras
[04:27] <crdlb> scales11, yikes, why?
[04:27] <Jordan_U> Rkod, Installing to another drive?
[04:27] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: Now I know why windows is such an ideal OS
[04:27] <StreetSpirit> ideal?
[04:27] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: i don't knwo if ideal is the word i'd use.
[04:27] <StreetSpirit> ugh..
[04:27] <Rkod> No, same drive
[04:27] <Wolf6969> gimme a minute :)
[04:28] <greyfrog> Wolf6969, all good
[04:28] <Rkod> I was using wubi because it creates a virtual partition, and I saw no harm in that
[04:28] <lxgg> anyone got an idea ?
[04:28] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: when I think about the work I have to do to get linux to work, it makes windows look like a dream boat
[04:28] <Rkod> any other ways to do the same thing?
[04:28] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: i don't go to the bathroom and say, "I think i'm gonna take an ideal".. which is what i think of MS
[04:28] <StreetSpirit> swiss cheese would be more appropriate
[04:28] <Clinton__> anyone here have any luck with the Logitech Quickcam Pro 5000?  I've followed the instructions given in the forums and yet I still don't have a recognized device.
[04:28] <StreetSpirit> i doubt i'll have more dataloss than i would trying to install vista :)
[04:28] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: the problem with Linux, is hardware manufacturers don't support it... drivers are written by people way smarter than us on a volunteer basis
[04:29] <Wolf6969> Laptop: Dell Inspiron|6400; GFX: ATI Mobility Radeon X1400
[04:29] <scales11> crdlb: because i am having trouble connecting to hidden networks and my signal isnt read as a percent
[04:29] <KingNothing> Hi all... is it possible to get pidgin 2.0.1 to work with feisty fawn?
[04:29] <Jordan_U> Wolf6969, Chances are that since ATI hates Linux you will need to install their proprietary drivers from the command line to get X to work, you can do this from the LiveCD or install with the alternate CD and do it after the system is installed
[04:29] <IndyGunFreak> Windows, everyone supports it and its done for you, so everything is easy, whereas with Linux, you're pretty much doing everything....
[04:29] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak, well its a crime, but thats how the world spins
[04:29] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: very true.
[04:29] <crdlb> scales11, you really think ndiswrapper will work better than madwifi?
[04:29] <pike_> its amazing how far we've come last few years though. i can expect that hardware will *probably* work to some degree now
[04:29] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: omg 86%
[04:29] <Bacon|ubuntu> omg 90%
[04:29] <Bacon|ubuntu> here we go
[04:30] <Jordan_U> IndyGunFreak, Unless you buy supported hardware :)
[04:30] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:30] <pike_> hey, that should be our new logo
[04:30] <StreetSpirit> heh
[04:30] <Bacon|ubuntu> it stopped at 96%
[04:30] <penos> whats mean uubunta
[04:30] <penos> ???
[04:30] <Bacon|ubuntu> I'm scared....
[04:30] <Pici> !ubuntu | penos
[04:30] <Rkod> It's on the ubuntu website
[04:30] <ubotu> penos: Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com
[04:30] <Rkod> What it means
[04:30] <IndyGunFreak> Jordan_U: true... i do a lot of research before buying somethign new...
[04:30] <crdlb> scales11, however you can disable madwifi in your /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common
[04:30] <MacDrunk> jordan u did you event see the link page you give me??
[04:30] <Bacon|ubuntu> the last 4 installs stopped at 96% with the grub error
[04:30] <penos> o_O
[04:30] <Bacon|ubuntu> it went past 96!
[04:30] <Bacon|ubuntu> WOO!
[04:30] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: lol, give it a second..lol
[04:30] <penos> !penis | ubotu
[04:30] <greyfrog> Wolf6969, sorry wolf... not sure whats going on...
[04:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about penis - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:30] <StreetSpirit> !wubi
[04:30] <ubotu> wubi is an unofficial Ubuntu installer for Windows users - more info is at http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[04:30] <Jordan_U> IndyGunFreak, That's Why the new Delbuntu's are so great :)
[04:30] <scales11> crdlb: i am not sure but i would like to try.
[04:30] <pike_> lol
[04:30] <IndyGunFreak> Jordan_U: now i definitely agree with that.
[04:31] <Bacon|ubuntu> Jordan_U: Delbuntu?
[04:31] <greyfrog> Wolf6969, try asking again with your these specs in your questions... someone's bound to know what to do ;)
[04:31] <scales11> crdlb: ok how do i disable it?
[04:31] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: dell is selling pc's pre--configured with Ubuntu.
[04:31] <crdlb> scales11, have you seen any success from other people?
[04:31] <Jordan_U> Bacon|ubuntu, Dell sells three models with Ubuntu pre-installed
[04:31] <scales11> crdlb: ha, just one
[04:31] <IndyGunFreak> Jordan_U: isn't one of htem a laptop?
[04:31] <pike_> now if dell can certify the webcams and other periphs they sell eventually too
[04:31] <Bacon|ubuntu> omg
[04:31] <Bacon|ubuntu> its installing grub
[04:31] <IndyGunFreak> lmao,
[04:31] <crdlb> scales11, it's pretty simple, just set DISABLED_MODULES="madwifi"
[04:31] <crdlb> I think that's it
[04:31] <Bacon|ubuntu> IT INSTALLED
[04:31] <IndyGunFreak> zing.. indygunfreak is right again
[04:31] <Bacon|ubuntu> ITS COMPLETE
[04:31] <Bacon|ubuntu> ITS DONE!
[04:31] <Bacon|ubuntu> OPMG
[04:32] <PurpZeY> !CAPs
[04:32] <ubotu> PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[04:32] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: next time, you will listen to me before 3hrs..lol
[04:32] <Bacon|ubuntu> lets see if ti works
[04:32] <Bacon|ubuntu> eh?
[04:32] <IndyGunFreak> PurpZeY: he's excited, cut him some slack.
[04:32] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:32] <Bacon|ubuntu> omg
[04:32] <crdlb> scales11, err I take that back
[04:32] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: just make sure you set your bios to boot that usb port.
[04:32] <Bacon|ubuntu> it works
[04:32] <silvertip257> I'm having somewhat of a dependency problem;;; chroot . /bin/sh -i         /bin/sh: /lib/tls/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by /bin/sh)
[04:32] <Bacon|ubuntu> I know it indy
[04:32] <Jordan_U> IndyGunFreak, Yes
[04:32] <scales11> crdlb: ok, i will give it a shot.  my second question is gonna be how to i install the drivers with ndiswrapper
[04:32] <crdlb> scales11, no idea
[04:32] <PurpZeY> IndyGunFreak: Sorry...;P
[04:33] <novato_br> hi
[04:33] <Skitch2011> Hi, could somebody please help me with my getting gtkpod talking to m Ipod?  I have read a bunch of the threads on how to do this, but the instructions don't seem to apply to the devide that my Ipod shows up as.
[04:33] <crdlb> scales11, you should add ath_hal to DISABLED_MODULES
[04:33] <silvertip257> lol IndyGunFreak & Bacon|ubuntu ;-) usb distro install ?
[04:33] <crdlb> and blacklist ath_pci
[04:33] <Bacon|ubuntu> indy
[04:33] <Bacon|ubuntu> you have paypal
[04:33] <IndyGunFreak> silvertip257: yeah.. he wouldn't listen to me
[04:33] <crdlb> !blacklist > scales11
[04:33] <Bacon|ubuntu> I pay you 10$
[04:33] <Bacon|ubuntu> :D
[04:33] <silvertip257> Indy :: hahaha
[04:33] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: its no big deal
[04:33] <danglybits> what is a good program to capture images from a webcamera and then be able to post that image to a website?
[04:33] <pike_> $10 for 4 hours? is that legal?
[04:33] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: now I need help getting my integrated wireless card to work
[04:34] <IndyGunFreak> pike_: lol..
[04:34] <Bacon|ubuntu> pike_: lol
[04:34] <silvertip257> Indy :: only time it is a good idea is when it's a mini distro, otherwise I think it eats up 2 much space & all -- plus life of the mem cells
[04:34] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: i'll have to turn you over to someone else for wireless, i sit at a desk.
[04:34] <crdlb> Bacon|ubuntu, broadcom?
[04:34] <Bacon|ubuntu> broadcom
[04:34] <IndyGunFreak> !wireless
[04:34] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:34] <crdlb> *sigh*
[04:34] <Bacon|ubuntu> I'm guessing ndiswrapper?
[04:34] <crdlb> Bacon|ubuntu, sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[04:34] <crdlb> no
[04:34] <silvertip257> oh boy ... ughhhh broadcom *cries* :'(
[04:34] <IndyGunFreak> no, i think broadcomm works w/o a whole lot of hassle.
[04:34] <Bacon|ubuntu> well uh
[04:34] <crdlb> there's a native firmware
[04:34] <lxgg> I got a problem with reading and writing a file, i think. I edited a script with sudo and saved it in /etc/init.de --> now i want to change the permission so that i can execute the file. How do I do that ? is it "chmod +rx resolution.sh" ?
[04:34] <lxgg> anyone got an idea ?
[04:35] <crdlb> IndyGunFreak, I wouldn't go that far :P
[04:35] <Bacon|ubuntu> let me hook up my PC through a ethernet
[04:35] <Jordan_U> Bacon|ubuntu, Whatever you do, *don't* use NDIS wrapper :)
[04:35] <IndyGunFreak> crdlb: lol
[04:35] <Skitch2011> I think you just need the +x rather than +rx.
[04:35] <greyfrog> lxgg, that will work
[04:35] <crdlb> scales11, ^^ see
[04:35] <Bacon|ubuntu> crdlb: it sees my wireless as eth1
[04:35] <Bacon|ubuntu> waaah?
[04:35] <silvertip257> lxgg :: chmod +x  your_file_path_here
[04:35] <reizend> danglybits - I think you want camerama
[04:35] <lxgg> okey ill try
[04:35] <crdlb> Bacon|ubuntu, basically the driver is incuded with ubuntu
[04:35] <crdlb> but not the firmware
[04:35] <crdlb> that command I gave you will install it
[04:35] <lxgg> greyfrog: Operation permitted
[04:36] <lxgg> not
[04:36] <greyfrog> lxgg you use sudo? ;)
[04:36] <reizend> sorry danglybits i meant camorama
[04:36] <Skitch2011> Could anybody help me with my Ipod?
[04:36] <IndyGunFreak> Jordan_U: why not use ndiswrapper?
[04:36] <greyfrog> lxgg, use sudo chmod +rx resource.sh
[04:36] <Clinton__> anyone here have any luck with the Logitech Quickcam Pro 5000?  I've followed the instructions given in the forums and yet I still don't have a recognized device.
[04:36] <silvertip257> lxgg:  be root or do ' sudo chmod +x your_file_here
[04:36] <lxgg> okey ill try
[04:37] <Bacon|ubuntu> ok
[04:37] <pike_> Clinton__: best bet is to use vlc to test it id think. lsusb doesnt show it?
[04:37] <Bacon|ubuntu> crdlb: whats the command again?
[04:37] <Clinton__> pike_ yup, lsusb shows it, but dmesg indicates it is an un-named device
[04:37] <crdlb> Bacon|ubuntu, sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[04:38] <pike_> Clinton__: driver is loaded?
[04:38] <cows> how do you remove the splash screen and the default orange color background in feisty? since when i go to System -> Preferences -> Sessions there isnt a option in there to remove the splash !
[04:38] <Clinton__> pike_ yup
[04:38] <pike_> Clinton__: sry for basic questions.. you never know
[04:38] <Jordan_U> IndyGunFreak, Because Broadcom cards have native drivers and NDIS wrapper is a dirty hack
[04:38] <greyfrog> cows look at usplash
[04:38] <Clinton__> pike_ no problem
[04:38] <IndyGunFreak> Jordan_U: well i certainly don't want to encourage the use of dirty hacks.. ;)
[04:38] <greyfrog> !usplash | cows
[04:38] <ubotu> cows: To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[04:38] <cows> greyfrog, thanks
[04:38] <Tarkus> anyone here use banshee music player? im trying to figure out why it gives me this error when i try to import these files: http://img482.imageshack.us/img482/3603/screenshotld0.png
[04:39] <greyfrog> cows, to change the desktop background just right click the desktop... no problem ;)
[04:39] <cows> greyfrog, isnt that for boot screen?
[04:39] <Clinton__> pike_ any other ideas?
[04:39] <Bacon|ubuntu> crdlb should I fetch and extract firmware?
[04:39] <greyfrog> cows, sorry must have misunderstood you...
[04:39] <crdlb> Bacon|ubuntu, yeah
[04:39] <MacDrunk> were can i get the  APT Repository file?
[04:39] <Clinton__> pike_ meanwhile I'm getting vlc (so far it hasn't work with camorama or kopete)
[04:39] <greyfrog> cows, you mean when logging in?
[04:39] <Bacon|ubuntu> crdlb you need to walk me through this
[04:39] <jadder_> hello everybody, how to use grep with cp, to find file and copy to new folder?
[04:40] <cows> greyfrog, well i know how to change the bg. i matched the gdm theme with the desktop wallpaper but the problem is that when its going to load it turns orange like default color and then ubuntu splash comes out
[04:40] <IndyGunFreak> argument out of range?
[04:40] <Skitch2011> Does any ipod usually show up as /dev/sd* or something like /dev/hd*?
[04:40] <IndyGunFreak> never saw that one
[04:40] <penos> !ubunta | ubotu
[04:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubunta - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:40] <Bacon|ubuntu> crdlb: now what?
[04:40] <bruenig> jadder_, explain what you are trying to do, are you trying to move all files that have a certain grep match to a folder or what
[04:40] <penos> !kubunta | ubotu
[04:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kubunta - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:40] <IndyGunFreak> Skitch2011: mine shows up as /media/IPOD
[04:40] <crdlb> Bacon|ubuntu, it's done?
[04:40] <Bacon|ubuntu> crdlb yes
[04:40] <jadder_> yes
[04:40] <crdlb> Bacon|ubuntu, now reboot
[04:40] <shooba_wooba> Hi!
[04:40] <greyfrog> cows, are you talking about the login screen?
[04:41] <IndyGunFreak> reboot?... what is this strange process you speak of.
[04:41] <cows> greyfrog, well i already changed the login screen
[04:41] <silvertip257> hey there
[04:41] <shooba_wooba> I have a sata hd, and i`m having trouble to mount ir
[04:41] <shooba_wooba> it*
[04:41] <jadder_> well I have to find html file, then copy a new folder in the same line of code
[04:41] <shooba_wooba> as i remember, is sda or sda1
[04:41] <cows> greyfrog, im trying to remove the ugly orange bg and splash in between the boot change from login screen to desktop
[04:41] <Skitch2011> Indy, unfortunately mine does not show up there.  I created the mount point there for it and it is connected, but no dice.
[04:41] <jadder_> those html file are in a folder
[04:41] <shooba_wooba> then
[04:41] <silvertip257> shooba_wooba:  how many partitions?
[04:41] <shooba_wooba> just 1
[04:42] <silvertip257> ok then it's just /dev/sda1 (if it's on SATA1)
[04:42] <bruenig> jadder_, the more specific the better, right now I really don't know what you are talking about
[04:42] <IndyGunFreak> Skitch2011: does the ipod icon come up on your desktop?
[04:42] <shooba_wooba> im on the live cd
[04:42] <silvertip257> ok
[04:42] <greyfrog> cows, bot sure how to change that... ask again with out my name and maybe someone else will pick up...
[04:42] <silvertip257> shooba_wooba:  what do you need then?
[04:42] <greyfrog> cows, bot -> not
[04:42] <cows> greyfrog, ?
[04:42] <shooba_wooba> ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount \dev\sda1
[04:42] <shooba_wooba> mount: can't find devsda1 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[04:43] <shooba_wooba> oh shit
[04:43] <Bacon|ubuntu> omg it works
[04:43] <Bacon|ubuntu> my wireless works!
[04:43] <cows> bot, splash screen
[04:43] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: lmao..lol
[04:43] <silvertip257> shooba_wooba:  try mkdir /mnt/sda1
[04:43] <Skitch2011> Indy, No, It did this morning.  When I disconnected it and then reconnected it it does not show up.  I edited /etc/fstab to have it auto mount, however, this last time I tried plugging it in it said that it couldn't mount it.
[04:43] <Bacon|ubuntu> indy
[04:43] <Bacon|ubuntu> never in my life
[04:43] <bruenig> Bacon|ubuntu, now just do ifconfig interface down
[04:43] <greyfrog> cows, I don't know how to change that.  ask you question again, hopefully someone else knows the answer
[04:43] <Bacon|ubuntu> did i think!
[04:43] <Clinton__> pike_ did I lose you?
[04:43] <silvertip257> shooba_wooba:  mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1
[04:43] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: just think, if you'd have listened to me about, oh...2.5hrs ago, you'd be in bed already..lol
[04:43] <cows> greyfrog, what ubuntu r u using?
[04:43] <Bacon|ubuntu> You kidding me?
[04:43] <silvertip257> shooba_wooba:  sudo those commands
[04:43] <bruenig> speed it up that way
[04:43] <reizend> shooba_wooba try using the other slashs
[04:43] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:43] <greyfrog> cows feisty
[04:43] <reizend> /dev/sda1
[04:43] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: I have 4 more hours of ubuntu mind sweeper to play
[04:43] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:43] <cows> greyfrog, do you atleast know how to remove feisty splash?
[04:44] <scales11> crdlb: ok sorry there is just so many messages i couldnt keep up
[04:44] <crdlb> scales11, I strongly recommend not using ndiswrapper
[04:44] <westoncampbell> Will someone help me please? I'm getting the "Failed to start X server..." message after doing sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:44] <IndyGunFreak> so wireless is that easy with broadcomm xx?
[04:44] <bruenig> I guess jadder_'s bash question wasn't all that important, I am almost certain I could do it with grep and xargs, but whatever
[04:44] <IndyGunFreak> hmm
[04:44] <shooba_wooba> ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount /dev/sda /mnt/sda
[04:44] <shooba_wooba> mount: /dev/sda already mounted or /mnt/sda busy
[04:44] <cows> greyfrog, im pretty sure i can change the orange bg to something else.. its in the login screen option
[04:44] <greyfrog> cows, I'm not sure which splash screen you're talking about.  THe only one I know how to change is the usplash
[04:44] <crdlb> IndyGunFreak, hopefully he doesn't need wpa... :)
[04:44] <IndyGunFreak> crdlb: lol
[04:44] <IndyGunFreak> crdlb: does that just enable wep?
[04:44] <cows> greyfrog, is that the 1 where ubuntu shows nautilus loading up?
[04:45] <silvertip257> IndyGunFreak:  I missed it, plz explain why "wifi is so easy w/ broadcom"
[04:45] <Clinton__> pike_ yup, lsusb shows it, but dmesg indicates it is an un-named device
[04:45] <Clinton__> oops
[04:45] <Clinton__> anyone here have any luck with the Logitech Quickcam Pro 5000?  I've followed the instructions given in the forums and yet I still don't have a recognized device.
[04:45] <IndyGunFreak> silvertip257: i dont' know, crdlb just talked Bacon|ubuntu through it in about 3min..lol
[04:45] <crdlb> IndyGunFreak, I've just heard that the bcm43xx driver doesn't work well with WPA
[04:45] <greyfrog> cows, nope... it's the initial "Ubuntu" screen used at bootup
[04:45] <silvertip257> wow
[04:45] <IndyGunFreak> crdlb: oh i see.
[04:45] <crdlb> IndyGunFreak, atheros and intel work in 0 minutes :D
[04:45] <IndyGunFreak> crdlb: whats that called, wpa-supplicant, or something?
[04:45] <crdlb> yeah something like that
[04:46] <cows> greyfrog, oh i know about usplash to change that but i dont like using splash screens.. im talking about the splash screen that is displayed right after you login
[04:46] <silvertip257> crdlb:  could you give me write up on getting broadcom wifi and wired nics to work ??? please & thanks =)
[04:48] <IndyGunFreak> crdlb: so atheros ad intel wireless chipsets work "out of the box?"
[04:48] <greyfrog> cows, don't know about that...
[04:48] <crdlb> IndyGunFreak, yes and a few others
[04:48] <amusso18> assholes
[04:48] <crdlb> ralink, orinco
[04:48] <IndyGunFreak> hmm, didn't know that
[04:48] <cows> greyfrog, ok
[04:48] <amusso18> I hate you
[04:48] <IndyGunFreak> !ohmy
[04:48] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[04:48] <Bacon|ubuntu> crdlb: my bit rate is only 11mb/s, it should be 54mb
[04:48] <amusso18> no wai
[04:48] <amusso18> hehehe  kidding
[04:48] <dga> Bacon|ubuntu: are you using native drivers?
[04:48] <amusso18> what is this thing anyways?
[04:48] <crdlb> silvertip257, no idea about wired nics
[04:48] <IndyGunFreak> what thing?
[04:48] <amusso18> xchat
[04:48] <crdlb> silvertip257, but for wireless
[04:48] <amusso18> what is it for
[04:48] <Bacon|ubuntu> dga: no clue
[04:48] <IndyGunFreak> amusso18: xchat is an irc client
[04:48] <tarelerulz> I have not been able to get into this  room for over a week. Is there any thing up with the ubuntu irc severs?
[04:48] <scales11> crdlb: humm, well is there any other option i have? i cannot connect to hidden networks, and the wireless doesnt seem to work all the time, sometimes it just connects
[04:48] <crdlb> silvertip257, sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[04:48] <scales11> sorry disconnects
[04:48] <IndyGunFreak> tarelerulz: were you banned for some reason?
[04:48] <Diggity> any suggestions on the best torrenting program?
[04:48] <crdlb> scales11, why do you turn off ssid broadcast?
[04:48] <IndyGunFreak> Diggity: Ktorrent
[04:48] <unlink> my bootup stops early on: the last message i see is [   26.955482]  ACPI: Looking for DSDT in initramfs... file /DSDT.aml not found, using machine DSDT.

[04:48] <unlink> this is a brand new install.
[04:48] <greyfrog> amusso18, Alex Musso from Dallas Texas
[04:48] <crdlb> scales11, that provides absolutely no security and breaks the wifi protocol
[04:48] <penos> UUUUUBUNTAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[04:48] <alexnb185> hey guys i have a question about using gcc to compile
[04:48] <IndyGunFreak> i think the wierdos are waking up.
[04:48] <scales11> crdlb: well, i just did
[04:49] <tarelerulz> IndyGunFreak , I don't think I was banded . I just could not get in . I had not said anything prophane or rude or I did not talk about windows haha.
[04:49] <IndyGunFreak> tarelerulz: i don'tknow.. thats the only reason i could think for not getting here, cuz i've had no problem
[04:49] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: Now here's the trick, having my windows HDD in with my linux
[04:49] <Skitch2011> I think my IPod is located at /dev/sdd.  I tried sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdd /media/ipod, but it says wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdd.  THis is a Windows IPod though, so if it is not vfat then what could it be?
[04:49] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: no trick at all.
[04:49] <IndyGunFreak> you've got grub on your USB drive.
[04:49] <alexnb185> I am brand new to usiing gcc and i have read up on it and i made the simple hello world app out of C and told gcc to compile it by typing "gcc hello_world.c" and it said there was no file or directorybut there is on my desktop .. cna someone help
[04:51] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: if you want to boot windows, you set your bios to boot your hard drive
[04:51] <unlink> alexnb185: type cd Desktop first
[04:51] <IndyGunFreak> if you want to boot linux, boot your USB drive
[04:51] <gnychis> whats the proper way to install ndiswrapper? does ndiswrapper-common include the binaries?
[04:51] <Skitch2011> alex are you sure you are in the right directory?
[04:51] <alexnb185> so what would the command be?
[04:51] <assis_> hey
[04:51] <greyfrog> alexnb185, did you try gcc hello_world.c -o hello_world?
[04:51] <unlink> alexnb185: cd Desktop
[04:51] <alexnb185> no i did not
[04:51] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: now if you want to add a grub entry to your USB drive, so you can boot to Windows from your USB grub, you can do that.
[04:51] <spasticteapot> How do I pick which soundcard my PC uses?
[04:51] <alexnb185> yes unlink i would tpye gcc cd desktop?
[04:51] <unlink> alexnb185: that won't help. the error says gcc can't find the input file because it's in a different directory
[04:51] <IndyGunFreak> is tha twhat you meant?
[04:51] <unlink> alexnb185: you're starting off in your home directory, which is different from your desktop
[04:51] <alexnb185> ok
[04:51] <unlink> alexnb185: first issue the command "cd Desktop". mind the capital D
[04:51] <cows> does anyone know how to remove the gdm splash screen? its the one right after you log on !
[04:51] <tarelerulz> gychis , I use ndiswrapper all the time. It is the only way I have gotten my wireless card to work at all.
[04:51] <alexnb185> ok so what exactly do i type in
[04:51] <unlink> alexnb185: next, run "gcc hello_world.c". this will produce a file a.out which you can run, if your program compiled and linked correctly
[04:51] <Skitch2011> you type cd desktop
[04:51] <unlink> alexnb185: "cd Desktop", without the quotes, followed by enter
[04:52] <cows> gychis, just get the driver and then run sudo ndiswrapper -i xxxxxx.inf
[04:52] <silvertip257> Bacon|ubuntu:  what was your wifi nic again ... I'm gonna save that command and all, I could use the info
[04:52] <foso> hey all, i just repartitioned and reinstalled and lost my wifi, i forget how i got it to work but it was bcm43 something
[04:52] <unlink> alexnb185: then "gcc hello_world.c", like you had typed before
[04:52] <cows> gychis, then type sudo modprobe ndiswrapper making sure you removed the old driver
[04:52] <Skitch2011> Indy, any other ideas concerning the ipod?
[04:52] <alexnb185> ok i did that
[04:52] <alexnb185> and nothign happened but it appearently found the file
[04:52] <alexnb185> oh a file caslled a.out is on my desktop now
[04:52] <IndyGunFreak> Skitch2011: when you plug it in, does it automount?
[04:52] <silvertip257> foso::  crdlb may know, he seems to know plenty about wifi
[04:53] <IndyGunFreak> do you get the icon on your desktop?
[04:53] <SirBob1701> what would i have to do in feisty to run a cross over cable between my fesity desktop and my thinkpad so my desktop can use my thinkpads wireless connection?
[04:53] <crdlb> foso,  sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[04:53] <SirBob1701> thinkpads feisty too btw
[04:53] <silvertip257> is that just for broadcom nics or any special model crdlb ???
[04:53] <Skitch2011> It tries, but fails.  Let me try it again.
[04:53] <cerealkiller219> whats the command to tell what your server version is ? :S
[04:53] <crdlb> silvertip257, all 43xx broadcoms
[04:53] <geeksauce> what the heck drivers does an nvidia gforce card use?  nvidia isn't a listed option
[04:53] <silvertip257> ok
[04:53] <spasticteapot> SirBob1701: Masquerade. Which is a pain in the arse to use.
[04:54] <crdlb> geeksauce, you have to install it
[04:54] <gnychis> whats the proper way to install ndiswrapper? does ndiswrapper-common include the binaries? i can't find a straight answer, it seems to be the kernel has ndiswrapper with it?
[04:54] <IndyGunFreak> !nvidia
[04:54] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:54] <silvertip257> crdlb::  how about broadcom wired nics
[04:54] <alexnb185> unlink how do i open the a.out.. i click it and nothing happens
[04:54] <crdlb> silvertip257, I know nothing about that
[04:54] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: I have a picture for you
[04:54] <Skitch2011> Indy, it seems to have mounted this time for some reason.
[04:54] <IndyGunFreak> Skitch2011: lol.. you remember to plug it in?
[04:54] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:54] <silvertip257> crdlb:  I need to go look at the ones we have in our lab comps @ the college =D
[04:54] <cows> gnychis, sudo aptitude install ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 ndiswrapper-common
[04:54] <dga> alexnb185: run it by typing ./a.out at the command line
[04:54] <unlink> alexnb185: type ./a.out
[04:54] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: what of
[04:54] <geeksauce> crdlb i don't want to use nvidia's proprietary drivers... i'm not going anything 3d really
[04:54] <NigelS> alexnb185: it;s of course text only - in a terminal you type a.out - for example gcc hello.c -o hello and then ./hello
[04:54] <crdlb> geeksauce, then use nv
[04:54] <gnychis> cows: thanks
[04:54] <NigelS> alexnb185: it should then print hello world etc
[04:55] <foso> crdlb now what
[04:55] <cows> gnychis, np :)
[04:55] <alexnb185> oh!, hey thanks alot
[04:55] <crdlb> geeksauce, unless you have a really new nvidia card that isn't supported by nv
[04:55] <SirBob1701> spasticteapot: where would i get that i don't see it in the repos
[04:55] <geeksauce> crdlb i tried that but x will not start given the paremeters i set
[04:55] <alexnb185> now back to learing more C
[04:55] <crdlb> foso, reboot
[04:55] <alexnb185> :-) u guys are a great help
[04:55] <spasticteapot> SirBob1701: I'm not sure. I think it might be part of Ubuntu.
[04:55] <NigelS> alexnb185: other useful switches
[04:55] <MacDrunk> jordan_u
[04:55] <NigelS> alexnb185: -g for debugging and -Wall to turn on all warnings
[04:55] <IndyGunFreak> Skitch2011: if you don't like Banshee for ipod stuff(i personally dont), one of the Few KDE apps I like, is Amarok.. it kills banshee in setting up an IPOD
[04:56] <unlink> My fresh install of ubuntu doesn't boot.
[04:56] <IndyGunFreak> unlink: doesn't boot?
[04:56] <alexnb185> like ex would be -g hello_world.c
[04:56] <unlink> the bootup stops early on: the last message i see is [   26.955482]  ACPI: Looking for DSDT in initramfs... file /DSDT.aml not found, using machine DSDT.
[04:56] <spasticteapot> It's a nifty program - it allows for IP masking.
[04:56] <spasticteapot> I did a big networking project using a Linux box with a wireless card as an internet connection for the whole network, but I can't get it to configure worth a dang myself.
[04:56] <unlink> ( @ IndyGunFreak )
[04:56] <Skitch2011> Indy, I have amarok, but it doesn't seem to find my ipod even though it will show it on the desktop.
[04:56] <NigelS> alexnb185: -Wall is esp useful in spotting errors. e.g. gcc -g -Wall -ansi -pedantic hello.c -o hello
[04:56] <redline6561> i've been having some trouble getting a startup script to work on feisty with update-rc.d
[04:56] <IndyGunFreak> unlink: i have no idea what that means
[04:56] <cows> good night all
[04:56] <alexnb185> ok
[04:56] <redline6561> anyone have any advice?
[04:56] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak:
[04:56] <Bacon|ubuntu> http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v353/lundzurheide/noname-2.jpg
[04:56] <geeksauce> is there something that will attempt to autoconfigure xserver-xorg for me?
[04:57] <cows> geeksauce, type sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:57] <foso_> thanks crdlb
[04:57] <Bacon|ubuntu> You see that indy?
[04:57] <silvertip257> shooba_wooba: it must be automounted / mounted to some other partition
[04:57] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: lol..
[04:57] <IndyGunFreak> yes.
[04:57] <geeksauce> cows i did that... x won't start
[04:57] <cows> geeksauce, i guess that's the last thing ill say before going to bed :). good night.
[04:57] <silvertip257> i mean mount point
[04:57] <Bacon|ubuntu> that black mini-box is the usb drive
[04:57] <cows> geeksauce, yea i know
[04:57] <IndyGunFreak> funny, i'd have thought after this long, there'd be a lot of empty beer cans on your desk,.
[04:57] <Bacon|ubuntu> those cds, are all 3 distros
[04:57] <cows> geeksauce, in terminal like your in console?
[04:57] <IndyGunFreak> lmao
[04:58] <Bacon|ubuntu> If I was 21 indy
[04:58] <Bacon|ubuntu> if I was 21
[04:58] <Bacon|ubuntu> I'd be drunk
[04:58] <cows> geeksauce, hmm did it start before?
[04:58] <geeksauce> cows, no i mean x fails to even start when i bott up
[04:58] <geeksauce> boot
[04:58] <Skitch2011> Indy, in the devices tab amarok says there is no device available
[04:58] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: well, at least you know how to do it now.., next time, you'll know not to goff with the live cd for 2hrs, just go straight to the alternate install.
[04:58] <cows> geeksauce, wat kind of installation is it?
[04:58] <IndyGunFreak> iv'e actually never installed to a usb drive, but i figured the alt. install cd was the way to go.
[04:59] <spasticteapot> I have an external soundcard plugged in - a Soundblaster. How do I get Ubuntu to use it? It works fine on PCs with no other soundcard, but I have onboard sound on my laptop and need to get it to use my outboard card.
[04:59] <redline6561> so...anyone have expertise with system services?
[04:59] <geeksauce> cows, yes, but i was using nvidia's driver and hating it.  i recently upgraded to the latest distro
[04:59] <Skitch2011> Indy, I had it execute mount -t vfat /dev/sdc2 /media/ipod, but it doesn't seem to do anything after that.
[04:59] <cows> geeksauce, ok so thats why the x server dont start.. mostly you will see a blue screen right?
[04:59] <k0rnz> hello can someone please help me to resolve why I am getting cut off from internet intermittently?
[04:59] <Skitch2011> Indy, although it does show up in nautilus.
[04:59] <IndyGunFreak> Skitch2011: i don't know, i jus plug mine in, start amarok, and move music to it.
[04:59] <redline6561> k0rnz: when do you get cut off?
[04:59] <k0rnz> I suspect I am being hacked or a victim of Dos attacks
[04:59] <k0rnz> every couple minutes
[05:00] <IndyGunFreak> Skitch2011: i've never had to type mount commands, etc, it does it automatically
[05:00] <IndyGunFreak> !ipod
[05:00] <ubotu> For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto See !rockbox for information on liberating your iPod
[05:00] <cows> geeksauce, every time you upgrade your kernel you will need to recompile the nvidia driver
[05:00] <geeksauce> cows, only when i run xserver-xorg reconfiguration.  other than that it's a command line
[05:00] <Skitch2011> Indy, what do you do in order to move the music over?  I just want to know assuming I get the rest of this working.
[05:00] <redline6561> k0rnz: are you using wireless or wired connection?
[05:00] <k0rnz> wired
[05:00] <cows> geeksauce, yea when you run that you will have alot of options just click next but first let me show u something
[05:00] <IndyGunFreak> Skitch2011: i use amarok, i don't use banshee(it never did the transfer thing very well for me)
[05:00] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: I'm coming on through xchat
[05:00] <Bacon|ubuntu> be back in 3 minutes
[05:00] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: lol, ok
[05:00] <cows> geeksauce, since your using a diff kernel type this : sudo aptitude purge nvidia-glx
[05:00] <Skitch2011> Yes, but how do you do the actual transfer?
[05:01] <geeksauce> cows, i can't use mouse
[05:01] <cows> geeksauce, you dont need a mouse
[05:01] <problemswithsony> HEY GUYS. How does one import video from a sony handycam onto a computer under ubuntu?
[05:01] <cows> geeksauce, you only need keyboard since your in console ( black screen, white font )
[05:01] <IndyGunFreak> Skitch2011: i start amarok, move the files i want to transfer to my playlist.., move them from the play list to the left, where all my ipod files are listed, then i hit transfer
[05:01] <redline6561> k0rnz: hate to say i'm not sure without more information. it could be driver related but i'm not an expert.
[05:01] <geeksauce> cows i'll have to write this down... the affected system is upstairs.  i'm ssh'd to a remote unix host right now
[05:01] <IndyGunFreak> also while its in the playlist, i check the tags, etc, and edit them if necessary
[05:02] <k0rnz> everything worked without any problems until just a while ago when I started experiencing problems
[05:02] <cows> geeksauce, ok, well if when you ssh into the system, all you see is console since the x server failed right?
[05:02] <SlimG> Is it possible to link directly to a nick on irc like somewhat like the link to a channel is done, ex.: irc://irc.freenode.org/ubuntu ?
[05:02] <Bacon|ubuntu> ahaha!
[05:02] <Bacon|ubuntu> I'm on!
[05:02] <Bacon|ubuntu> I'm on ubuntu, on wireless, on my laptop with usb drive
[05:02] <geeksauce> cows, no i am ssh'd into a truly remote unix host that i pay for access to
[05:03] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: Now we know what to do if people have problems
[05:03] <Skitch2011> Indy, and transfer is where?  I looked through the entire menu.
[05:03] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: true... oh and not to add salt to the wound
[05:03] <chris__> can someone help me with squid?
[05:03] <cows> geeksauce, hmm you should be where the affected system is..
[05:03] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: What wound?
[05:03] <IndyGunFreak> but i just checked my logs, you checked in at 13:42 EDT, asking for help with a USB install, its now 11:03 EDT
[05:03] <k0rnz> never mind, my ISP just confirmed that it is on their end and not mine
[05:03] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[05:03] <cows> geeksauce, if the affected system is upstairs all you have to do is turn it on and when it fails enter the console
[05:03] <geeksauce> cows it's upstairs in my bedroom
[05:03] <ticky> does anybody think it is a bad idea to have boths gnome and KDE installed in the same O.S ?
[05:04] <Bacon|ubuntu> How long is that indy?
[05:04] <cows> geeksauce, is the computer turned on? the affected 1..
[05:04] <IndyGunFreak> um, about 9hrs..lol
[05:04] <spasticteapot> ticky: Nah.
[05:04] <geeksauce> cows i'm just trying to avoid running up and down steps every 2 minutes
[05:04] <geeksauce> cows yes it is on
[05:04] <redline6561> k0rnz: glad to hear it.
[05:04] <spasticteapot> ticky: Having craploads of libraries can be a problem, but I don't think it should be a problem.
[05:04] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: stfuu, and get out of here
[05:04] <cows> geeksauce, yea i understand i have to do that sometimes since my comp is in my room and my backup comp is in the living room
[05:04] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: dead seroius...
[05:04] <IndyGunFreak> i'm still laughing abou tit.
[05:04] <cows> geeksauce, ok is it in console the affected 1?
[05:05] <andrew____> How well developed is Ubuntu for doing a school network?  I know the thin client bit is quite good, but if I want to put the whole school network on Ubuntu, how would I go about setting up authentication for the
[05:05] <IndyGunFreak> lol, i was trying to see how long it took me to figure this out, and it looks like i told you first to stop using x64..
[05:05] <andrew____> thick clients?
[05:05] <IndyGunFreak> then i told you to use the alternate install cd... which you didn't seem to try for a while, then you finally did, and now here you are.
[05:05] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[05:05] <Bacon|ubuntu> indy, it didn't have to do with the 32bit
[05:05] <geeksauce>  cows similar situation here :)  so what do i need to type at the prompt?
[05:05] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: i know that
[05:05] <ticky> spasticteapot: thanks for your opinion on that
[05:05] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: the thing is though, 32bit is easier to set up than the 64bit, thats why i told you to go with it.
[05:05] <cows> geeksauce, ok at the prompt you first have to delete your old nvidia drivers, so you type sudo aptitude purge nvidia-glx
[05:05] <IndyGunFreak> did you end up using 64 anyways/
[05:05] <IndyGunFreak> ?
[05:06] <cows> geeksauce, im assuming you installed nvidia-glx as ur driver package?
[05:06] <Bacon|ubuntu> No, most likely I have
[05:06] <Bacon|ubuntu> ..wait
[05:06] <Bacon|ubuntu> i386
[05:06] <Bacon|ubuntu> nah, thats x32
[05:06] <IndyGunFreak> yeah..
[05:06] <mintsoup> I have a Radeon 9800 Pro and I want graphics acceleration and such, but when I goto install proprietary drivers in the administration menu, it says I don't need proprietary drivers...... soo... with a 9800 Pro, should I go ahead and try to install the fglrx driver anyways?
[05:06] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: you won't be sorry, for the forseeable future, unless you must have 64bit powr for some reason... 32bit is the way to go, things are easier to get working
[05:07] <cows> mintsoup, yea install the fglrx
[05:07] <mintsoup> thank you
[05:07] <cows> np
[05:07] <IndyGunFreak> so now what do you need to learn how to do?
[05:07] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[05:07] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: Get wine working
[05:07] <cows> mintsoup, just make sure after your install fglrx that you set the xorg.conf driver to fglrx , then log out and press alt + ctl + backspace
[05:07] <IndyGunFreak> geez, you go from one landmine to another.
[05:07] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: So I can play computer games
[05:08] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: just be forewarned, wine isn't near 100% with games, some it works great, some it works ok, most it barely works, if at all.
[05:08] <geeksauce> cows, ok, then what?  (i'll write down several steps at a time)
[05:08] <cows> geeksauce, did you delete the nvidia-glx?
[05:08] <Bacon|ubuntu> Half-life indy?
[05:08] <Bacon|ubuntu> OMG
[05:08] <Bacon|ubuntu> indy
[05:08] <geeksauce> cows i will but what then
[05:09] <Bacon|ubuntu> My battery life has a countdown timer
[05:09] <Bacon|ubuntu> windows never did that
[05:09] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: im not a gamer, but you can try it...   http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[05:09] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: i think its supposed to.
[05:09] <IndyGunFreak> mine does to.
[05:09] <Bacon|ubuntu> I have 50 hours left :)
[05:09] <cows> geeksauce, ok after you remove the drivers , you will just switch the 'nvidia' driver to 'vesa' to see if your x server will work
[05:09] <Bacon|ubuntu> at 81%
[05:09] <cows> geeksauce, you do this by typing sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:09] <Bacon|ubuntu> running off a usb drive
[05:09] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: go to that link i just posted foor wine instructions.
[05:10] <cows> geeksauce, go down to the line where it says 'nvidia' and change it to 'vesa'
[05:10] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: why typ of video chip do you have in that laptop?
[05:10] <cows> geeksauce, then there you can try and start up the x by typing 'startx'
[05:10] <Bacon|ubuntu> x800
[05:10] <Bacon|ubuntu> all in wonder
[05:10] <Bacon|ubuntu> ATi
[05:10] <IndyGunFreak> cuz you're probably gnna have to install drivers for it to get 3d support to play halflife.
[05:10] <IndyGunFreak> oh geez.
[05:10] <IndyGunFreak> ati..lol
[05:10] <cows> lol
[05:10] <Bacon|ubuntu> wait
[05:10] <cows> ati sux
[05:10] <Bacon|ubuntu> thats my PC
[05:10] <Bacon|ubuntu> I have the geforce 7400 go
[05:10] <Bacon|ubuntu> on my lappy
[05:11] <cows> yea use that
[05:11] <cows> lol
[05:11] <IndyGunFreak> much better.
[05:11] <cows> nvidia driver is well supported
[05:11] <cows> ati ppl r retards.. there like m$
[05:11] <geeksauce> cows, ok i will do that.  might as well take this laptop upstairs.  sometimes i forget about that whole poratable thing/wireless network ;-)
[05:11] <IndyGunFreak> cows: i woudln't go that far..lol
[05:11] <cows> lol
[05:12] <cows> well i have a ati radeon 9200 :) full hardware accelaration and i also have a nvidia 7600 gs
[05:12] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: you're likely gonna need to install the nvidia drivers to make halflife work
[05:12] <KingNothing> How do I get pidgin 2.0.1 to install on feisty x64?
[05:12] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: lets get wine working first
[05:12] <cows> it sux cause alot of people cannot get full support for there x*** cards
[05:12] <ali_> tytt
[05:12] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: ok..  did you go to that link
[05:12] <Bacon|ubuntu> installed it
[05:12] <IndyGunFreak> see, that was easy
[05:12] <spasticteapot> Does anyone know how to make Ubuntu use an outboard sound card? I have a laptop, and want to use my USB SoundBlaster instead of awful internal sound.
[05:13] <cows> geeksauce, yea i just got my first laptop on sunday
[05:13] <cows> geeksauce, its pretty low on specs yet it runs ubuntu well and it even supports desktop effects :)
[05:13] <Bacon|ubuntu> easy?
[05:13] <Bacon|ubuntu> 9 hours?
[05:13] <Bacon|ubuntu> EASY?
[05:13] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[05:13] <cows> geeksauce, bought it off my bro for $250 , it has 256 mb ram , 1.5 ghz intel celeron m
[05:14] <IndyGunFreak> so you got wine installed righ?
[05:14] <cows> geeksauce, as a matter of fact im talking to u from it atm
[05:15] <geeksauce> cow, my school required me to buy a maxed out macbook pro, so i get to work my butt off all summer to pay it off.  i do love it though
[05:15] <Bacon|ubuntu> I guess
[05:15] <Bacon|ubuntu> if thats it
[05:15] <cows> geeksauce, lol .. i liked macs but now i dont..
[05:15] <Bacon|ubuntu> is wget all I have to do?
[05:15] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: open a terminal.. type "winecfg" no quotes... then hit enter...
[05:15] <IndyGunFreak> no...
[05:15] <IndyGunFreak> did you follow the instructions?...
[05:15] <cows> geeksauce, i would buy mac over windows .. but over all im loyal to linux and im new to it.. been using it for 3 months
[05:16] <Bacon|ubuntu> no =(
[05:16] <IndyGunFreak>  Bacon|ubuntu is the wget thing done?
[05:16] <cows> geeksauce, i go on windows a couple of times but not much.. im actually pretty stable now
[05:16] <IndyGunFreak> lol,
[05:16] <kkerwin> Hi. I have an external hard drive that I am trying to get non-root users to be able to write to, but haven't had much success.
[05:16] <problemswithsony> HEY GUYS. How does one import video from a sony handycam onto a computer under ubuntu?
[05:16] <Felarin> cows : i totally dont use windows cept for WoW, rofl
[05:16] <geeksauce> cows, i like how easy they are to use, yet they basically have a BSD core so i can still do geeky stuff with it
[05:16] <Felarin> i dont even ping with Winfdows
[05:16] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[05:16] <greyfrog> problemswithsony, does that use firewire?
[05:16] <cows> felarin, lol i use to play wow.. played it for 1 month and i quit.. wasted a 3 month card cause i never used it..
[05:17] <as2000> sweet
[05:17] <Felarin> geeksauce: completely agree, it's like you have control over the core of the system and yet you have what other operating systems have interface wise... and even more[Beryl, Compiz] 
[05:17] <cows> geeksauce, yea i dont like bsd lmfao!
[05:17] <cows> geeksauce, yet i heard good things about all the bsds
[05:17] <Felarin> cows : 1st month is boring as hell
[05:17] <Felarin> cows : my brother uses PC-BSD
[05:17] <Felarin> it's got a PBI installer mode
[05:17] <cows> felarin, its not even funny lmfao! got up to lvl 23 with my draenei shaman then got bored
[05:17] <Felarin> where you download files with .pbi extensions
[05:17] <MrMazda> In breezy I replace an ISA sound card with a CS4281 PCI card. Now only root has sound. How can normal users have sound too?
[05:17] <Felarin> and you just double click on em
[05:17] <Bacon|ubuntu> My brother has two level 70s
[05:18] <Felarin> and they install just like windows
[05:18] <Bacon|ubuntu> s life
[05:18] <gnychis> when trying to run nm-apoplet i get "/bin/sh: /usr/bin/esd: not found"
[05:18] <cows> felarin, how about freebsd , netbsd, openbsd?
[05:18] <Felarin> cows : the fun only starts @ 70
[05:18] <geeksauce> cows how do you like linux but not BSD?
[05:18] <Felarin> cows : only PC-BSD uses pbi files
[05:18] <cows> felarin, yea i heard.. i have fiend friend players
[05:18] <ali_> hai
[05:18] <Felarin> they are like .exe files in windows
[05:18] <hajiki> whats a good application like 7-zip or Winrar for ubuntu?
[05:18] <Felarin> p7zip
[05:18] <instabin> I installed an update and now my nvidia driver does not work
[05:18] <Bacon|ubuntu> Felarin: my brother doesnt do anything else with his life
[05:18] <Felarin> or file-roller
[05:18] <cows> geeksauce, because linux is geared more towards desktop usage
[05:18] <Bacon|ubuntu> its sad
[05:18] <ali_> gggg
[05:18] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[05:18] <bluqo> greyfrog, it's on usb, but i can use firewire
[05:18] <Felarin> make sure you apt-get unrar too
[05:18] <cows> geeksauce, bsd is more like a port of unix
[05:19] <Felarin> Bacon|ubuntu: but i do.
[05:19] <hajiki> ok thanks
[05:19] <geeksauce> well OS X is like the desktop version of linux then
[05:19] <cows> yea
[05:19] <instabin> no
[05:19] <cows> apple is like making bsd desktop wise
[05:19] <Felarin> yeah BSD is a unix flavor
[05:19] <Felarin> non commercial
[05:19] <geeksauce> cows yeah, you know what i mean
[05:19] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: did you get wine installed?
[05:19] <greyfrog> bluqo, if you can use firewire, use Kino to capture the video
[05:19] <cows> geeksauce, yea.. did you get the x server to work?
[05:19] <Felarin> you can even use Beryl on BSD
[05:19] <cows> felarin, thats cool
[05:19] <instabin> Any one have problems with any of the updates messing up the nvidia drivers?
[05:20] <geeksauce> cows, add strikes again.  i swear i'm getting up this time :)
[05:20] <greyfrog> bluqo, you should be able to lookup some Kino directions pretty easy...  might have one just a sec
[05:20] <Felarin> you must upgrade X though, because BSD is very stable, it dosen't come with the latest releases for programs.
[05:20] <Felarin> It comes with X11R6.7 i think
[05:20] <Felarin> so you need to upgrade it to X11R7.2 with Beryl for the best results
[05:20] <cows> felarin, funny how i just jumped into the freebsd setup thinking it would be like ubuntus.. this was about 2 months back. after i poped in the cd and started setup it said stuff like cut slice im like wth?
[05:21] <Felarin> actually PC-BSD is easy to install
[05:21] <cows> felarin, now i know slice is partition.. they could just use standard english
[05:21] <Felarin> yeah slice
[05:21] <Felarin> lol
[05:21] <Felarin> BSD people are very technical
[05:21] <dudaz> hi, guys, which command can i use the check the type of linux-header..my system is running on
[05:21] <greyfrog> bluqo, no link sorry...
[05:21] <Felarin> uname -a
[05:21] <MrMazda> "could not establish connection to sound server"
[05:21] <cows> felarin, i should make freebsd but basically standard english instead of the normal shakespear style llol
[05:21] <Felarin> dudaz: uname -a should tell you your kernel version
[05:21] <ali_> uggil
[05:21] <SirBob1701> is thier a way to ping a computer directly attached to you via ethernet if yo don't know its ip?
[05:21] <as2000> ahem
[05:21] <Felarin> SirBob1701: try pinging by hostname
[05:22] <SirBob1701> k
[05:22] <cows> felarin, or you can be very rude and traceroute them lol
[05:22] <IndyGunFreak> !steam
[05:22] <ubotu> Steam can be found at: http://www.steampowered.com/
[05:22] <dudaz> Felarin : so i686 means my header is linux-headers-686 issit
[05:22] <cows> !cows
[05:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cows - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:22] <cows> WTH
[05:22] <cows> i dont like ubotu
[05:22] <Felarin> dudaz: i686 is the architecture of your processor
[05:22] <cows> llol
[05:23] <SirBob1701> Felarin: nope
[05:23] <MrMazda> In breezy I replace an ISA sound card with a CS4281 PCI card. Now only root has sound. How can normal users have sound too?
[05:23] <cows> dudaz: im guessing you have pentium or celeron processor?
[05:23] <geeksauce> cows ok i'm right next to my linux box now
[05:23] <SirBob1701> guess i'll have to figure out how to give it an ip
[05:23] <Felarin> SirBob1701: do you have physical access to the machine?
[05:23] <cows> geeksauce, ok cool
[05:23] <Felarin> just edit /etc/init.d/network/interfaces
[05:23] <Felarin> to give it an ip
[05:23] <SirBob1701> Felarin: ya but i dont have dhcp server on either one
[05:24] <cows> he would need static then
[05:24] <Felarin> yeah
[05:24] <Felarin> static
[05:24] <SirBob1701> give them both static ips ?
[05:24] <dudaz> cows : yeah
[05:24] <Felarin> nano /etc/network/interfaces
[05:24] <Felarin> and edit eth0
[05:24] <Felarin> for each PC
[05:24] <as2000> test
[05:25] <brylie> tested
[05:25] <Felarin> brb
[05:25] <Hubris2> Evening.  Anybody good with wireless?  I have my card detected and working...but with network manager I don't seem to be able to select any security but WEP.  How can I configure WPA-PSK?
[05:25] <as2000> test
[05:25] <cows> geeksauce, ok so what are you up to ?
[05:25] <dudaz> cows,Felarin : i am installing VMware...so i am suppose to install the linux-headers..i am not sure whether to install linux-headers-386 or linux-headers-686
[05:25] <Felarin> Hubris2: ndiswrapper
[05:25] <IndyGunFreak> !wpa
[05:25] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:25] <cows> dudaz, i recommend virtualbox
[05:26] <Hubris2> ubotu - I'll give that a read
[05:26] <Felarin> dudaz: VMware can automatically compile the headers for you, i've got both vmware and virtualbox installed with the latest Ubuntu Feisty kernel
[05:26] <Felarin> oh !!
[05:26] <geeksauce> cows, just purged my nvidia drivers
[05:26] <Felarin> i get what you mean
[05:26] <Felarin> just apt-get the headers dudaz
[05:26] <cows> geeksauce, ok . is your computer booted up using the new upgrade ?
[05:26] <Felarin> you're missing packages
[05:26] <maeth_> hi , im having problems with vmware
[05:26] <eljbone> helo
[05:26] <Hubris2> Felarin - I'm using Ndiswrapper to load the driver.....where do I configure the network?

[05:26] <eljbone> please
[05:26] <tritium> !enter
[05:26] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[05:26] <eljbone> someone please help me
[05:27] <geeksauce> cows hang on a sec..
[05:27] <cows> geeksauce, ok
[05:27] <maeth_> i used to use it, and it said that an update was on the webpage, i download it and then i cant start it
[05:27] <Felarin> try this dudaz : sudo apt-get install kernel-headers-2.6
[05:27] <IndyGunFreak> eljbone: we aren't psychic, ask your question
[05:27] <eljbone> I tried to install linus on a mac machine
[05:27] <dudaz> Felarin: i saw this comand... sudo aptitude install build-essential linux-headers-386 netkit-inetd
[05:27] <cows> indygunfreak lmfao
[05:27] <Felarin> Hubris2: try sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome
[05:27] <IndyGunFreak> cows: well, maybe you are, but i'm not..lol
[05:27] <Bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: almost done
[05:27] <eljbone> and accidentally tagged my mac partition "newworld" is there any way I can undo that
[05:27] <IndyGunFreak> Bacon|ubuntu: ok...
[05:27] <cows> IndyGunFreak LMFAO!
[05:27] <Felarin> dudaz: thhe one i told you should be fine
[05:27] <IndyGunFreak> it shoudln't take that long
[05:27] <IndyGunFreak> it isntalls pretty quick
[05:28] <Felarin> oh
[05:28] <Felarin> dudaz: pls also install build-essential
[05:28] <IndyGunFreak> eljbone: new world?
[05:28] <eljbone> yeap
[05:28] <maeth> any help plz?
[05:28] <dudaz> Felarin: k...so i can skip the one , i type out..and use yours...juz to double confirm.
[05:28] <maeth> i need to get it started :S
[05:28] <Felarin> sudo apt-get install build-essential kernel-headers-2.6
[05:28] <IndyGunFreak> i have never heard of that
[05:28] <eljbone> well I used the live ubuntu cd
[05:28] <cows> hmm
[05:29] <dudaz> Felarin: thanks dudes, i will try riteway...
[05:29] <Felarin> dudaz: sudo apt-get install build-essential kernel-headers-2.6
[05:29] <IndyGunFreak> eljbone: well, so did i, and i never tagged my hard drive new world
[05:29] <eljbone> and it keept asking me to give hfs partition and what not
[05:29] <cows> to remove gdm splash all i have to do is remove the gnome-cups-icon service from the sessions startup list right?
[05:29] <cows> this is in feisty
[05:29] <IndyGunFreak> eljbone: sorry, no clue..
[05:29] <eljbone> so i named my mac hard drive newworld so it could be recongnized by yaboot
[05:29] <SirBob1701> do i have to disable network manager to run 2 connections at once?
[05:30] <cows> SirBob1701, no because 1 will be disconnected
[05:30] <Felarin> cows : there's an option to remove the splash from the preferences or administration section, i simply changed it to a custom splashscreen using a package
[05:30] <dudaz> Felarin: tryed your command..and got this... Package kernel-headers-2.6 is not available, but is referred to by another package
[05:30] <Felarin> try this
[05:30] <SirBob1701> cows: ya but i want to run 2 at once
[05:30] <eljbone> that's it ... i'm dead
[05:30] <cows> felarin, not in feisty. in edgy there was a option in System -> Preferences -> Sessions
[05:30] <Felarin> sudo apt-get install build-essential kernel-headers
[05:30] <cows> SirBob1701, cant do that
[05:30] <IndyGunFreak> eljbone: why are you dead?
[05:30] <Lexxian> !Wubi
[05:30] <ubotu> wubi is an unofficial Ubuntu installer for Windows users - more info is at http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[05:30] <Felarin> dudaz: sudo apt-get install build-essential kernel-headers
[05:30] <SirBob1701> cows: i want one to  be a bridge to another ocmputer
[05:30] <Felarin> dudaz: without the 2.6 behind
[05:31] <cows> SirBob1701, meaning like your connecting 1 router to another?
[05:31] <eljbone> becouse i need to recover the data on that parition sooo bad
[05:31] <geeksauce> cows ok x still won't start.  fatal error: no screens found
[05:31] <Hubris2> Felarin - I have Network Manager installed already.  When I pick the correct one, it shows a 54 meg link, but when I try configure it says "The Interface Does Not Exist".  Something with my ndiswrapper setup?
[05:31] <dudaz> dudaz : Package kernel-headers is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[05:31] <SirBob1701> like i'm using my wifi in my laptop to connect to net then running a cross over from laptop to desktop
[05:31] <cows> geeksauce, yea did you change it to vesa driver?
[05:31] <Felarin> Hubris2: probably
[05:31] <Felarin> dudaz: try this
[05:32] <geeksauce> cows yes
[05:32] <Felarin> dudaz: sudo apt-get build-essential
[05:32] <SirBob1701> cows: like i'm using my wifi in my laptop to connect to net then running a cross over from laptop to desktop
[05:32] <Felarin> and then run the vmware setup
[05:32] <IndyGunFreak> eljbone: well, not to be a smarty-pants, but, don't you think when you're going to do something like partition a hard drive and intall another OS on it, it would behoove you to make a backu?
[05:32] <eljbone> anybody knows of a tool that would recover the data on a mac parition
[05:32] <Felarin> and see if it can auto compile a header for your kernel
[05:32] <cows> geeksauce, ok then try to restart the x, just press ctrl + alt + backspace, then type startx again
[05:32] <eljbone> U know what
[05:32] <eljbone> I thought that it was going to be more simpler
[05:32] <maeth> i have a broken package, it says that i have to reinstall it but it wont and i try to remove it and it cant either...
[05:32] <MrMazda> In breezy I replaced an ISA sound card with a CS4281 PCI card. Now only root has sound. How can normal users have sound too?
[05:32] <eljbone> since i was installing on an external hard drive
[05:33] <cows> SirBob1701 lol that happened to me before
[05:33] <geeksauce> cows x isn't even running
[05:33] <cows> SirBob1701 until i got my laptop
[05:33] <dudaz> Felarin: yeah..they say my build-essentail is already latest version
[05:33] <SirBob1701> lol
[05:33] <Felarin> MrMazda : add them to the sound group
[05:33] <cows> geeksauce, it ctrl + alt + backspace will refresh your settings
[05:33] <Felarin> dudaz: you've installed build essential before?
[05:33] <Felarin> hang on a sec
[05:33] <IndyGunFreak> eljbone: i guess this will be a good lesson, even fi youu're installing an OS to an external drive, backup before you start, crap happens
[05:33] <SirBob1701> cows: so do you know how to bridge a connection?
[05:33] <MacDrunk> hey need some help whit wine hq repository file
[05:33] <eljbone> sure i know that now
[05:33] <dudaz> btw, can i assume my linux-headers-386 for intel 32 bit pc
[05:33] <Rex> hello everyone...
[05:33] <MacDrunk> any ideas were to get the update
[05:33] <eljbone> but back to my problem
[05:33] <Hubris2> Felarin - is it possible that the adapter I bought doesn't support anything but WEP?
[05:33] <cows> SirBob1701, I only know how to do it for 2 routers
[05:34] <eljbone> a tool that would recover my data
[05:34] <IndyGunFreak> eljbone: good lessons are rarely easy ones.
[05:34] <cows> SirBob1701, not for a direct connection
[05:34] <eljbone> anyone?
[05:34] <Felarin> Hubris2: yes it is possible
[05:34] <MacDrunk> i did a update but wont work?
[05:34] <SirBob1701> cows: ok

[05:35] <MacDrunk> ill do my best to help
[05:35] <Felarin> tell me the kernel version
[05:35] <MacDrunk> and
[05:35] <cows> geeksauce, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:35] <eljbone> and ...
[05:35] <eljbone> well
[05:35] <maeth> how can i force a re-download and reinstall a package??
[05:35] <geeksauce> COWS I'M THERE
[05:35] <Felarin> dudaz: yes 386 is correct btw.
[05:35] <geeksauce> oops
[05:35] <dudaz> Felarin : Linux hanifa-desktop 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP Thu Jun 7 20:19:32 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[05:35] <MacDrunk> the installations failed
[05:35] <cows> geeksauce, it worked?
[05:35] <eljbone> i was doing the partition thing U know
[05:35] <geeksauce> dang caps lock gremlin
[05:35] <Aeos> Hi I am following this tutorial: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba
[05:35] <xenex> Why isn't the 'su' command accepting my password?
[05:35] <MacDrunk> so?
[05:36] <Felarin> okay
[05:36] <ticky> xenex: because there's no password for the root account
[05:36] <eljbone> and i partitiones my xternal drive right
[05:36] <geeksauce> cows i mean i'm in the configuration
[05:36] <ticky> you have to set it up manually
[05:36] <MacDrunk> yes
[05:36] <Felarin> dudaz: apt-get the command you told me, but exclude build essential
[05:36] <cows> geeksauce, in the dpkg-reconfigure?
[05:36] <xenex> ticky, how would I do that?
[05:36] <bullgard4> English help wanted: nstat -g prints 'group membership' or how is it called in an English man 8 netstat?
[05:36] <Montaro> xenex: sudo passwd root
[05:36] <MacDrunk> eljbone were u from?
[05:36] <Aeos> where it says: smbmount //myserver/myshare ~/mnt I assume myserver is the name of the local machine? or is it literally myserver
[05:36] <eljbone> and then i named my mac's hard drive type newworld
[05:36] <Montaro> xenex: or sudo su
[05:36] <mack75> xenex use sudo
[05:36] <Felarin> dudaz: btw, it compiles my kernel modules automatically, vmware i mean
[05:36] <Akuma_> whats a good backup tool? is there any that will also keep versions?
[05:36] <mack75> xenex: sudo su -
[05:36] <LucidFox> Qt4 application dialogs aren't centered - is this a bug?
[05:36] <IndyGunFreak> sudo r0X
[05:36] <Felarin> you're probably missing the devel packages
[05:36] <LucidFox> they appear in the top-left corner instead
[05:36] <xenex> Thanks.
[05:36] <geeksauce> cows, yes
[05:37] <Felarin> Akuma_:  Just use rsync and schedule a cronjob
[05:37] <eljbone> and now
[05:37] <cows> geeksauce, well follow the instructions, make sure you choose vesa driver
[05:37] <MacDrunk> then what happend after you name your hdd newworld?
[05:37] <dudaz> Felarin: so do i use linux-headers-386 or linux-headers-686
[05:37] <Felarin> use 686
[05:37] <eljbone> i didn;t name it ... i actually change the partition's type to newworld
[05:37] <dudaz> Felarin: thanks...
[05:37] <IndyGunFreak> dudaz: what are you doing?
[05:37] <Felarin> do they also have -devel packages?
[05:37] <MacDrunk> pleas mr eljbone write the hole idea on one line please
[05:38] <eljbone> so
[05:38] <Montaro> you'll probably find they are -dev packages not -devel
[05:38] <eljbone> how can I undo that
[05:38] <tritium> dudaz: unless you're doing something special, you want -generic
[05:38] <Felarin> he's installing linux headers
[05:38] <IndyGunFreak> !enter | eljbone
[05:38] <ubotu> eljbone: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[05:38] <maeth> it says that the package is bad or inconsistent, how can i fix this?!!!
[05:38] <mack75> Aeos: smbmount //[name or IP] /[share]  [mount point
[05:38] <Felarin> dudaz: he should have generic if he updated his system recently
[05:38] <Felarin> dudaz: did you?/
[05:38] <logmein> psemu-input-omnijoy package is broken
[05:38] <tritium> dudaz: i.e., don't use arch-specific
[05:38] <Aeos> mack75: is the name or IP of the windows client, or of the linux box that I am trying to install samba?
[05:38] <MacDrunk> so eljbone you saying you repartition a hdd you have win installed on it??? thats what your saying??
[05:39] <Montaro> Aeos: if that fails, Try mount -t smbfs -o username=Username,password=PaSsWoRd //serverorip/share /mount/point
[05:39] <geeksauce> cows my card is AGP...it is saying PCI:1:1
[05:39] <dudaz> Felarin: yeah..i update al the time
[05:39] <Felarin> dudaz: install generic
[05:39] <eljbone> i restarted my mac hoping for a succesfull linux installation and it didn;t happen and now i can not boot OSx
[05:39] <MacDrunk> seos what you trying to do?
[05:39] <Cows> geeksauce, dont worry about that , thats just the bus
[05:39] <mack75> Aeos: smbmount mount a share in other machine
[05:39] <Felarin> sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic
[05:39] <Aeos> ok thanks guys
[05:39] <mack75> Aeos: then it is the IP or the name
[05:40] <mack75> Aoes: of the windows machine
[05:40] <eljbone> i want to my my mac's hard drive as good as it was before i change the partition type to newworld
[05:41] <mack75> but, you can do this with nautilus
[05:41] <mack75> Aeos
[05:41] <dudaz> Felarin, tritium: i run ur command..got problem..man  Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[05:41] <Cows> geeksauce, meaning that PCI:1:1 is the location of the video card in the computer. not what type of card the gfx card is
[05:41] <maeth> k, i just said "sudo apt-get clean vmware-player" and then "sudo apt-get install vmware-player" , hope it works
[05:41] <mack75> Aeos: but, you can do this with nautilus
[05:41] <spasticteapot> I have multiple soundcards connected to my computer. How do I choose which one is used?
[05:41] <tritium> dudaz: do you have synaptic open?
[05:41] <hazrin> anyone can speak malay?
[05:41] <MacDrunk> eljbone do you saying you have  a mac and you try to install a ubuntu linux and you repartition your hdd so you can used and now you whant to redo all that???
[05:41] <dudaz> tritium: yeah

[05:41] <mack75> Aeos: only type smb://[ip or name]  in the address bar
[05:41] <tritium> dudaz: you'll need to close it
[05:41] <Montaro> hazrin: this an is english channel only, sorry.
[05:41] <Felarin> i mean dudaz : pls close synaptic or update manager
[05:41] <Felarin> it's linked to apt-get
[05:41] <Felarin> you can only use one @ a time
[05:41] <hazrin> then i should speak english
[05:41] <Cows> Montaro, non !! je parle francais .. NO yo ablo espanol , WEE lol..
[05:41] <hazrin> i'm newbie in ubuntu
[05:41] <geeksauce> cows we're making progress... i got x started but resolution is 8 bit and gross looking
[05:41] <eljbone> well
[05:42] <Cows> geeksauce, easy to fix
[05:42] <dudaz> Felarin, tritum: they say it is latest version ...
[05:42] <Felarin> hmm...
[05:42] <mack75> Hazrin: Hi
[05:42] <hazrin> anyone can guide me, i had a problems
[05:42] <Felarin> then your system has the requisites
[05:42] <maeth> shit, it still fails!!!!!!!!!!
[05:42] <hazrin> with my hardware
[05:42] <Aeos> hmm it seems to be timing out
[05:42] <Felarin> can you paste me the exact error you got while trying to install vmware?
[05:42] <eljbone> when I changed the type of the hard drive I didn't format it
[05:42] <bruenig_> wow that is quite a few exclamation points
[05:42] <maeth> plz anybody help,
[05:42] <xenex> I added the Computer, Home, and Trash icons to my desktop through gconf-editor, now they cannot be removed. Any ideas?
[05:42] <Cows> geeksauce, just open up the xorg.conf, and scroll down to screens.. change the DefaultDepth to 24.. im pretty sure its like that
[05:42] <mack75> hazrin: What's the problem
[05:42] <Felarin> did you run vmware-config.pl
[05:42] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig_: lol
[05:42] <MacDrunk> eljbone first you  need to be sure you didt kill your macs partition, cause if thats the case you need to boot your mac whit a OSX cd or dvd so you can make a complete install
[05:42] <hazrin> radeon9000, exitgy(usb) and winfast pvr crad
[05:42] <Felarin> after installing the vmware package?/
[05:42] <bruenig_> I fear helping that number of exclamation points, you can't trust them
[05:42] <geeksauce> cows ok hang on
[05:42] <lekremyelsew> maeth whats the prob?
[05:42] <Cows> geeksauce, ok
[05:42] <dudaz> Felarin, tritium: seems like i had wasted mine as well ur time guys...sorry about that... still downloading the vmware
[05:42] <eljbone> the installation ocurred on an external drive not on the internal drive
[05:42] <logmein> eljbone: did you get the right copy of ubuntu?
[05:43] <eljbone> yes i did
[05:43] <eljbone> ubuntu for ppc
[05:43] <IndyGunFreak> MacDrunk: i think thats what he did.
[05:43] <maeth> lekremyelsew, k  , i used to work with vmwareplayer
[05:43] <logmein> eljbone: did it work from live cd?
[05:43] <Felarin> dudaz: i thought you had trouble installing it? you mean you're still downloading it?
[05:43] <eljbone> yes
[05:43] <eljbone> i;m here with the live cd
[05:43] <lekremyelsew> maeth and?
[05:43] <Cows> Felarin, lol
[05:43] <MacDrunk> eljbone please be more specific, what the heck you what to do??????
[05:43] <eljbone> i can not boot ubuntu nor osx
[05:43] <logmein> eljbone: then partition is wrong, can't you just run installer again?
[05:43] <IndyGunFreak> eljbone: allow me to translate for you.
[05:43] <maeth> lekremyelsew, and then it said that an update was on the webpage, i installed it, and now it doesnt run, then i tried to reinstall it
[05:43] <Cows> MacDrunk, that doesn't make sense
[05:43] <Felarin> Cows : dude said he tried to install it and it didn't work
[05:44] <Cows> Felarin, lol
[05:44] <Felarin> how can you install when you're still downloading it? you should get a broken pipe error
[05:44] <Cows> lol
[05:44] <dudaz> Felarin: no i am reading this book.. Ubuntu Hacks... they told me i had to install this prerequiste ... before i install vmware
[05:44] <Cows> i love ubuntu
[05:44] <MacDrunk> do you what to have your mac osx read your external drive as before the linux install???
[05:44] <maeth> lekremyelsew, via synaptic, and it failed and says that there is this brocken package
[05:44] <Felarin> no need
[05:44] <Felarin> you have all you need
[05:44] <Felarin> just install the packagr
[05:44] <IndyGunFreak> MacDrunk: i *think* he tried to install Ubuntu onto an external drive, he renamed his mac drive newworld something, and now he can't boot either drive, so he's here on a live cd, pleading for wisdom, eljbone does that sum it up?
[05:44] <Felarin> and run vmware-config.pl,
[05:44] <Felarin> and run vmware-config.pl
[05:44] <lekremyelsew> maeth what os r u running?
[05:44] <eljbone> yes
[05:44] <eljbone> that's it
[05:44] <Cows> Felarin, you can tell him to find disk-utility in mac os x , then to reformat his hdd using 30 x reformat
[05:44] <maeth> lekremyelsew, that i have to reinstall it, when i try it fails , and when i try to remove it also... im using ubuntu 7.04

[05:47] <bruenig> Cows, I was on topic, you were not

[05:47] <penguin> halp?
[05:47] <IndyGunFreak> MacDrunk: was just wondering what that statement was all about, thats all...lol
[05:47] <Cows> bruenig, dont worry about it , i had just finished helping ppl
[05:47] <maeth> lekremyelsew, yeah... A LOT!
[05:47] <MacDrunk> im trying to say that he need to read all the stuff on linux before messing whit liux thats all

[05:47] <geeksauce> cows, back.  now i'm on the linux box
[05:47] <Cows> geeksauce, cool, glad it works :)
[05:47] <IndyGunFreak> MacDrunk: oh ok, i already told him that, ..lol,, when he first game in
[05:47] <maeth> lekremyelsew, but still its just the vmx file, i can back it up
[05:48] <lekremyelsew> penguin u got nvidia?
[05:48] <hazrin> anyone?
[05:48] <IndyGunFreak> i'm trying to figure out why anyone would mess with installing another OS, and not do a complete backup, but thats just me. i'm catious like htat
[05:48] <Cows> geeksauce, well im going to bed.. good night
[05:48] <lekremyelsew> maeth back up all of it for now
[05:48] <hazrin> i tried almost 5 hours to install my vga card
[05:48] <MacDrunk> i been in and out of linux machines for some time now, also use some other releases of linux, like suse, and redhat, but like this one most
[05:48] <geeksauce> cows... it's my day off tomorrow, so i'm gonna hit the boxed wine and watch tv till i pass out :-D
[05:48] <penguin> lekremyelsew: radeon doesnt mean nvidea
[05:48] <geeksauce> cows, night man
[05:49] <IndyGunFreak> MacDrunk: have you tried Fedora?.. its a good one
[05:49] <MacDrunk> no im not
[05:49] <IndyGunFreak> not as good as the *buntus, but good.
[05:49] <maeth> lekremyelsew, allready done :D
[05:49] <MrMazda> Felarin: that was a partial fix. I now have startup sound, but sound apps complain about missing plugins.
[05:49] <andrew____> Can Ubuntu support a school network?
[05:49] <Felarin> MrMazda : Which sound app? Just go in to the application and change the output plugin to alsa
[05:49] <andrew____> Beyond the thin client solution?
[05:49] <lekremyelsew> maeth: do you by chance have the ubuntu install cd?
[05:49] <logmein> andrew____: any network
[05:50] <Dr_willis> andrew____,  define what you mean by 'support' :) it can do samba/printing/other server tasks.
[05:50] <MacDrunk> well what i told you before was ages ago, i had and old pc and i now im runing ubuntu on a laptop
[05:50] <geeksauce> oh crap, it still isn't running at 1280x1024... what's the fix for that again?  i lost the link
[05:50] <ToddEDM> hey guys whats a good program to burn an iso image file?
[05:50] <andrew____> I want central administration of user accounts, files, etc. with client login.
[05:50] <maeth> lekremyelsew, yes i do,
[05:50] <MrMazda> Felarin: whatever tries to open mp3 & mpeg files from the home browser
[05:50] <Felarin> MrMazda : I've had the problem where even though some sound apps could detect the existing alsa, some couldnt, in which case, i simply recompiled the latest alsa on my system and recompiled the apps and it worked.
[05:50] <maeth> lekremyelsew, i have here the error :  /var/cache/apt/archives/vmware-player_1.0.2-2_i386.deb
[05:50] <maeth> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[05:50] <andrew____> We want a mix of thin and non-thin clients.
[05:50] <Felarin> MrMaza : You need the w32 codecs package to open mpg files or wmv files.
[05:51] <logmein> geeksauce: scroll up and the fix was use your plain text editor on /etc/X11/xorg.conf to change the resolutions listed there
[05:51] <MacDrunk> that used to have win xp on it, the only think i dont like the other realeses is that they dont use to have a prog like ubuntu synapes on those days so every installations were to be done in a terminal
[05:51] <Felarin> MrMazda
[05:51] <MrMazda> Felarin: I though I installed that over a year ago for the old sound card
[05:51] <Felarin> Can you open those files with root?
[05:51] <MacDrunk> no
[05:51] <geeksauce> logmein: isn't there a way to re-run to autoconfig script that runs when you initially install?
[05:51] <lekremyelsew> maeth when vmplayer boots up does what happens?
[05:51] <MacDrunk> you better not do that
[05:51] <Felarin> MrMazda: Just adjust the sound output plugin to alsa, if alsa dosen't work, try OSS
[05:51] <MrMazda> Felarin: can't try root X login now - kid's trying to use her puter
[05:51] <logmein> geeksauce: that sounds hard and I'm very lazy
[05:52] <dudaz> Felarin:  What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel? [/lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/build/include] 
[05:52] <dudaz> At this stage. I press ENTER... then i get this man...Unable to build the vmmon module.
[05:52] <dudaz>  and execution is aborted... any ideas
[05:52] <MacDrunk> any ideas on how to update a wine HQ APT repository
[05:52] <Felarin> MrMazda: At this point, sound is enabled for your users, it's down to application level now.
[05:52] <andrew____> Dr_willis: any thoughts?
[05:52] <penguin> logmein: still not work.
[05:52] <Felarin> dudaz: The reason why it's unable to build is probably because of a bug
[05:52] <maeth> lekremyelsew, nothing, it doesnt start the aplication... it says starting .... and then it closes, but i dont even see a screen... nothing
[05:53] <Felarin> dudaz: try to get the patched vmmon and vmnet files from google and follow the instructions and then rebuild
[05:53] <lekremyelsew> maeth: ooh, i thought the image was corrupt
[05:53] <logmein> MacDrunk: wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - then do the command sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/feisty.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list if you use feisty
[05:53] <Felarin> you only have to do it once
[05:53] <MacDrunk> i try to do it on system.. admin...software sources but i keep give me a error that the file is not found
[05:53] <Felarin> dudaz: if you dont want all the trouble, install virtualbox.
[05:53] <tritium> dudaz: why are you building from source, anyway?
[05:53] <lekremyelsew> maeth what was the update u got for, WinXP or vmplayer?
[05:53] <HymnToLife> dudaz, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=448110
[05:53] <HymnToLife> scroll down a bit
[05:54] <dudaz> Felarin: oh... and will it work if i us the older version....
[05:54] <Felarin> tritium : he's not, hes running the vmware installer, it autobuilds the modules for his running kernel
[05:54] <Felarin> Felarin : if your kernel is the older version, yes
[05:54] <andrew____> What's the best place to start if I want to have client files administered on a server. LDAP?
[05:54] <dudaz> tritium: yeah...i use the autobuilder..
[05:54] <Morris562> Hello I have a CD-less boot question. I've followed all the steps and managed to get the netboot working where it loads grub, then downloads the iso. My question is, I already have a copy of the iso on 3 different harddrives (I've got 4installed). Is there anyway I can rig it to install from there instead of having to wait for it to download (again)
[05:54] <Felarin> but since you updated recently, it should be the latest, i believe the bug is as of .15 kernel
[05:54] <tritium> dudaz: and you have linux-headers-$(uname -r) installed?
[05:54] <MacDrunk> logemin
[05:54] <HymnToLife> dudaz, post #7, especially
[05:54] <logmein> dudaz: the older version as in the "2.4"
[05:54] <MacDrunk> do i need to follow all the line including -0-
[05:54] <maeth> lekremyelsew, vmplayer
[05:54] <Felarin> tritium: yes he has the latest generic headers installed.
[05:55] <Felarin> it's a bug dude, i fixed it
[05:55] <logmein> MacDrunk: just shove those two commands in there word for word, it works
[05:55] <mevets> hey
[05:55] <Felarin> i had the same issue when reconfiguring vmware for the latest kernel
[05:55] <maeth> vmwareplayer, it was the ver 2.0, but i just wanted to have it working like before...
[05:55] <Felarin> you have to download 2 files and put them in specific locations to fix the issue
[05:55] <lekremyelsew> maeth have u tried re-installing it
[05:55] <_Ahti> i
[05:55] <judd> irc.freenode.net
[05:55] <penguin> i have a radeon x1600, and it doesnt want to display 1280 x 1024

[05:55] <MacDrunk> nope
[05:55] <sexauer> I just upgraded from edgy to fiesty (7.02) and now my touchpad does not work...everything was working fine b4 the upgrade....can anyone direct me to a fix?  I have a synaptics ps2 in my lappy
[05:55] <dudaz> HymnToLife : gimme a sec...i am waiting for the page to load... :)
[05:55] <mevets> is there a way to configure the Win key to launch the Applications menu?
[05:55] <MacDrunk> it wont
[05:56] <Morris562> *bump* Anyone have an idea for my boot situation?
[05:56] <MacDrunk> this one work wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg
[05:56] <Felarin> dont get me wrong
[05:56] <Felarin> older version does not mean 2.4
[05:56] <Felarin> previous release versions of 2.6 is fine
[05:56] <maeth> lekremyelsew, thats what i cant do ! :S
[05:56] <MacDrunk> but this one didnot -O- | sudo apt-key add
[05:56] <maeth> lekremyelsew, it gives me that error...
[05:56] <thmcmahon> anyone know any easy way to obfuscate an ip address?
[05:57] <Felarin> i need to look up obfuscate in the dictionary
[05:57] <mevets> thmcmahon: just proxy?
[05:57] <Felarin> lol
[05:57] <MacDrunk> logmein: do i need to fill in the full line or do a separate comman on the -0- ???
[05:57] <lekremyelsew> maeth: sudo apt-get update
[05:57] <dudaz> HymnToLife: shld i copy and paste the whole thing...or line by line
[05:57] <penguin> i have a radeon x1600, and it doesnt want to display 1280 x 1024. any one with halpz?
[05:57] <thmcmahon> mevets: me and my friend want to join the same poker game, but it wont let us because we have the same ip, any idea of a workaround?
[05:57] <HymnToLife> dudaz, line by line
[05:58] <thmcmahon> Felarin: hehe :)
[05:58] <maeth> this one: dpkg: error at procesing /var/cache/apt/archives/vmware-player_1.0.2-2_i386.deb (--unpack):
[05:58] <maeth> it tries to stop the ethernet vmware service and then it fails...
[05:59] <MacDrunk> logmein are u there?
[05:59] <_Ahti> If i wanted to run a liveCD in VMware... Sould i install the Server or the Client package???
[05:59] <ToddEDM> hey guys... i just got ubuntu working reasonably well, i was just wondering what the differences between Gnome and KDE are..... are they significant ???/
[05:59] <Dr_willis> _Ahti,  i always install vmware server for such things.
[05:59] <logmein> MacDrunk: yeah
[05:59] <MacDrunk> yes
[05:59] <MacDrunk> todd
[05:59] <_Ahti> ToddEDM: yes
[05:59] <MacDrunk> logmein it work
[05:59] <Felarin> Athi : just install the server
[05:59] <_Ahti> Dr_willis: Thanks :)
[05:59] <logmein> MacDrunk: yep there two commands
[05:59] <penguin> i have a radeon x1600, and it doesnt want to display 1280 x 1024. any one with halpz?
[05:59] <mevets> thmcmahon: just goto System > Preferences > Network Proxy
[06:00] <Dr_willis> ToddEDM,  you can easially have both on the same system, and just pick which one to use at the GDM login screen
[06:00] <MacDrunk> firt command give a public key block right???
[06:00] <mevets> get a proxy from sites like proxy4free.com
[06:00] <thmcmahon> mevets: ok hold on
[06:00] <tritium> mevets: or install tor
[06:00] <_Ahti> Now since i know that... Could anyone point me to a HowTo about running a liveCD under vmware?
[06:00] <ToddEDM> dr_willis....... ummmm explain
[06:00] <Felarin> ToddEDM : they are programmed using different languages and look different, but they pretty much are the same in functionality, there are also specific applications for each DM, aside from generic applications that can be used on both
[06:00] <ToddEDM> gdm login?
[06:01] <Felarin> ToddEDM: When it comes to the desktop managers, it's all a matter of preference.
[06:01] <MacDrunk> second command conects to wine right?
[06:01] <maeth> lekremyelsew, i sent you a PM with a more exact information about the error
[06:01] <mevets> thmcmahon: is the poker thing access through a web browser?
[06:01] <thmcmahon> mevets: yeah it is
[06:01] <ToddEDM> for a newbie gnome would be the best bet?
[06:02] <tritium> !best > ToddEDM (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:02] <thmcmahon> ToddEDM: for ne1 its the best bet :)
[06:02] <mevets> thmcmahon: you might want to just goto a site like http://sliprightby.com then
[06:02] <Jester> ToddEDM: not newbie, more disabled user
[06:02] <thmcmahon> mevets: ok i'lll have a look
[06:02] <Frozen_mango> I bought a super cheap low res BenQ optical Mice, at random times the pointer goes crazy and "teleports" all around for less then a second. Is that fixable?
[06:02] <tritium> Jester: ?
[06:02] <maeth> lekremyelsew, if i restart, the service will stop isnt?, then i should be able to reinstall it then...
[06:02] <dudaz> HymnToLife,Felarin, TItrium : thanks dude for the help... :)... it is finally installable
[06:02] <Jester> tritium: ?
[06:02] <ToddEDM> thanks Tritium
[06:02] <ToddEDM> lol jester
[06:02] <tritium> sure, ToddEDM
[06:02] <Felarin> dudaz: told you =P did the patch work?
[06:03] <tritium> Jester: disabled?
[06:03] <ToddEDM> so maybe i will try kubuntu for a bit
[06:03] <dudaz> Felarin : i was just following the commmands blindly, but it finally werked
[06:03] <Jester> what, gnome has good accessibility features for disabled users
[06:04] <Felarin> dudaz: yep, it's easy, just that 1 extra step
[06:04] <Felarin> virtualbox is even easier though
[06:04] <thmcmahon> mevets: when i  open the java applett in the browser it just goes blank with sliprightby.com
[06:04] <logmein> MacDrunk: you familiar with wine? there also a #winehq channel
[06:04] <Felarin> cause if i'm not wrong, the current version of vmware server, 1.0.3 is it not?
[06:04] <Felarin> that one dosen't support usb 2.0 devices
[06:04] <thmcmahon> mevets: do i just add one of the ip addresses into network proxys?
[06:04] <Felarin> but virtualbox does
[06:04] <tritium> !enter > Felarin (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:04] <Felarin> vmware workstation does too but it's not free
[06:04] <sexauer> Help plz: I just upgraded from edgy to fiesty (7.02) and now my touchpad does not work...everything was working fine b4 the upgrade....can anyone direct me to a fix?  I have a synaptics ps2 in my lappy... Usb mouse works though
[06:04] <Felarin> =.=
[06:04] <dudaz> Felarin: just wanna standardise with collegues..they install vmware in windows
[06:05] <mevets> thmcmahon: try other proxy sites, some work better than other, that site has others at the bottom of the page
[06:05] <lekremyelsew> maeth probably
[06:05] <logmein> sexauer: yep its called feisty install disc
[06:05] <Felarin> dudaz: yeah, you can use their vms too.
[06:05] <Mike562> Does anyone know how I can use the netboot method to boot the .ISO from another harddrive instead of having it download from the net?
[06:05] <Felarin> dudaz: or you can remote connect
[06:05] <sexauer> logmein: what do I need to do with the install disc?
[06:06] <logmein> sexauer: install it
[06:06] <novato_br> how can I request ubuntu cd free ?
[06:06] <__mike> no-one?
[06:06] <logmein> __mike: me
[06:06] <ToddEDM> shipit.ubuntu.com
[06:06] <dudaz> Felarin: i am actually gonna take their images an put in my comp...and try em
[06:06] <ToddEDM> i think thats the addy
[06:06] <sexauer> logmein: i dont understand...are you saying that I should go back to the older version?
[06:06] <novato_br> thx, ToddEDM
[06:06] <tritium> logmein: like chowmein, only with really thick noodles?
[06:06] <mevets> shipit.ubuntu.com
[06:06] <logmein> sexauer: no I said feisty install disc, use it
[06:06] <chowmeined> tritium: huh?
[06:06] <novato_br> thx
[06:07] <logmein> tritium: yeah um.. #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:07] <ToddEDM> i like to help out with an answer when i can, since i ask so many questions
[06:07] <__mike> logmein: Please share.. lol
[06:07] <SirBob1701> do you think if the prong of the i/o shield on a mobo goes into the network adapter and then you put in a wire it will fry the network adapter?
[06:07] <tritium> logmein: indeed
[06:07] <sexauer> logmein: I upgraded from edgy...dont have the install disc....and i've installed all updates....
[06:07] <dga> when i logout of gnome, i'm taken to a black screen and left with no other option than to hard shutdown. anyone know what's up with this?
[06:08] <defrysk> dga, you are using gdm or kdm ? as loginmanager ?
[06:08] <dga> defrysk: whatever comes default on ubuntu. i think gdm
[06:08] <tritium> dga: that would be gdm
[06:08] <logmein> sexauer: major system updates never work, you have to do manual method and go back using auto updater just to check for mistakes. its thoroughly trashed now so I suggest using feisty install disc
[06:08] <__mike> logmein: Thanks, i'm there.
[06:09] <sexauer> logmein: thanks....
[06:09] <dga> do you know what can cause that to happen? can i possibly rid myself of gdm altogether?
[06:09] <tritium> logmein: er, not really, no
[06:09] <defrysk> dga sudo apt-get install --reinstall gdm and check if it works better
[06:09] <MacDrunk> logmin
[06:09] <tritium> sexauer: did you follow the upgrade procedures?
[06:10] <mevets> anyone know the path to the php5 binary? i checked /usr/bin
[06:10] <MacDrunk> logmein the pb key failes
[06:10] <sexauer> logmein: yes....everything went smoothly...only problem I have is the mouse...everything else is great
[06:11] <MacDrunk> well it display a erro
[06:11] <tritium> sexauer: you've inspected /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
[06:12] <sexauer> tritium: looking at it, but nothing is sticking out...what shold I be looking for? error?
[06:12] <tritium> sexauer: yes, designated with (EE)
[06:12] <thmcmahon> mevets: what is a transparent proxy server?
[06:13] <dga> reinstalling gdm seemed to have worked
[06:13] <ashua> had anyone sound errors with 7.04? i have usb audio
[06:13] <gnychis> when trying to run nm-apoplet i get "/bin/sh: /usr/bin/esd: not found" .. any ideas?
[06:13] <tritium> sexauer: you should not have to resort to reinstalling from scratch.
[06:13] <defrysk> dga, great :)
[06:13] <dga> defrysk: thanks
[06:13] <bruenig> gnychis, I would go with nm-applet
[06:13] <mevets> thmcmahon: dunno, sounds like it reports that its a proxy, doesnt hide the fact
[06:13] <dga> how can I get out of X completely? i know how to get to the console while X is running, but what if I'd just rather close X?
[06:13] <mevets> thmcmahon: probably wont make a difference
[06:13] <GSF1200S> it really sucks.. I love the ubuntu community and I love ubuntu as a distro, but I prefer KDE and Kubuntu is very buggy
[06:14] <sexauer> tritium: (EE) Synaptics Touchpad no synaptics touchpad detected and no repeater device, (EE) Synaptics Touchpad Unable to query/initialize Synaptics hardware.
[06:14] <IndyGunFreak> GSF1200S: why do you say that?
[06:14] <bruenig> GSF1200S, you have others to pick from
[06:14] <MacDrunk> logmin
[06:14] <defrysk> dga, sudo init3 or sudo killall gdm
[06:14] <gnychis> bruenig: isn't that what i'm doing?
[06:14] <thmcmahon> mevets: ok cool
[06:14] <ashua> had anyone sound errors with 7.04? i have usb audio
[06:14] <MacDrunk> can to the command again
[06:14] <dga> defrysk: thanks :D
[06:14] <bruenig> gnychis, I thought you said nm-apoplet
[06:14] <Toma-> GSF1200S: try mepis?
[06:14] <gnychis> bruenig: typo
[06:14] <sexauer> tritium: (EE) PreInit failed for input device "Synaptics Touchpad"  thats all I found for the touchpad
[06:14] <tritium> sexauer: sounds like a missing module that should be loaded.
[06:14] <julius> how do i edit the kernel? is it the same process as with gentoo?
[06:14] <GSF1200S> im looking for fast, stable, and fast (again)
[06:15] <GSF1200S> but most other distros dont have a cool community
[06:15] <IndyGunFreak> GSF1200S: Fast, use Xubuntu.
[06:15] <GSF1200S> thats big when trying to fix stuff and make things happen
[06:15] <sexauer> tritium:  I think you are right:   (II) UnloadModule: "synaptics"    what do I do about it....where can I find the missing module
[06:15] <julius> GFS1200S: Fluxbuntu
[06:15] <bullgard4> What is a 'raw socket' as in man netstat(8)?
[06:16] <IndyGunFreak> julius: flux is nice, but to me, its not as usable as flux.
[06:16] <GSF1200S> I dont care for XFCE YET... I think ill be looking at it in a year.
[06:16] <julius> well KDE is pretty zippy for me
[06:16] <GSF1200S> whats a really fast KDE distro
[06:16] <tritium> sexauer: see if it's found with "cat /proc/bus/input/devices
[06:16] <defrysk> GSF1200S, this it not a trivia channel, stay on topic
[06:17] <IndyGunFreak> GSF1200S: there really isn't one.. KDE is probably the "heaviest" o the GUIs
[06:17] <IndyGunFreak> lol, a trivia channel
[06:17] <IndyGunFreak> ?
[06:17] <GSF1200S> sorry.. it wasnt a question designed to spark any wars.. lol.. Im just curious
[06:17] <silvertip257> IndyGunFreak =)  ||| I try to run:  chroot . /bin/sh -i  ;;;  I get:  /bin/sh: /lib/tls/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by /bin/sh)
[06:18] <sexauer> tritium: nope....not in there...
[06:18] <GSF1200S> and I agree with you IndyGunFreak.. although memory wise Gnome seems to use more for me, not that its bad
[06:19] <clearzen> how do I make a file world readable and usable?
[06:19] <IndyGunFreak> silvertip257: do you have build essentials installed?
[06:19] <IndyGunFreak> GSF1200S: well, my experience has been completely opposite of that
[06:20] <silvertip257> IndyGunFreak:: I'm not sure ... been a long time since I checked;;; how might I check ?
[06:20] <tritium> sexauer: check through this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad
[06:20] <tritium> IndyGunFreak: it's build-essential
[06:20] <IndyGunFreak> tritium: ok..
[06:20] <IndyGunFreak> silvertip257: open synaptic, and do a search for build-essential
[06:20] <_Ahti> How can i run a LiveCD on VMWare Server?
[06:20] <GSF1200S> Hmm.. must be a difference in setup.. Im still thinking about coming back to gnome.. KDE is nice, but its bugs get old.. ubuntu is a solid distro
[06:21] <silvertip257> though IndyGunFreak:  I think it has to deal w/ the dir I'm chrooting into; that doesn't have that file ... which puzzles me too
[06:21] <silvertip257> thanks Indy
[06:21] <sexauer> tritium: thanks man...i understand its a very common problem....just havent been able to find a common solution for the past hour or so
[06:21] <sexauer> i'll check the site
[06:21] <GSF1200S> Ahti.. mount the iso image under the CD/DVD section?
[06:21] <IndyGunFreak> silvertip257: could be, truthfully, i'm not to good at compiling... I've learned, if its not in the repository, its not meant for me to have it..lol
[06:21] <IndyGunFreak> silvertip257: what are youu trying to install?
[06:21] <silvertip257> IndyGunFreak:  i'm making a busybox live cd
[06:21] <_Ahti> GSF1200S: Iso image? I've got the cd popped in
[06:22] <clearzen> will sudo chmod 644 <filename>  make the file world readable and usable?
[06:22] <IndyGunFreak> oh geez, thats way beyond me..lol
[06:22] <gnychis> how do you check which video driver xorg is using?
[06:22] <tritium> sexauer: please run "apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-input-synaptics" to make sure you have that installed
[06:22] <mage> !ask
[06:22] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:22] <ih70> Hi. Using Ubuntu 7.04 AMD64 here on an HP laptop. Works great, except when I return from hibernate I have no sound. Any idea how to go about finding out what is the problem and how to fix it?
[06:22] <GSF1200S> oh well crap Ahti.. is there a settings dialog for the .vdi your using?

[06:23] <_Ahti> GSF1200S: I am a total noob with VMware...
[06:23] <GSF1200S> ih70.. sounds like an ACPI problem
[06:23] <ih70> _Ahti: Just specify in VMWare the CD .iso image and boot from it
[06:23] <tritium> gnychis: one way: grep Driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:23] <GSF1200S> Ahti: ouch, and im using virtualbox
[06:23] <sexauer> tritium: i'm on it...
[06:23] <tritium> sexauer: meaning you have it installed?

[06:25] <robert98374> hello everyone!
[06:25] <a12345> Thanks ubuntu - I can not see any reason why the dummy people prefer to use windows -- as i find ubuntu is much easier for the PC beginners
[06:25] <robert98374> where do i install nautilius scripts?
[06:26] <a12345> I would like to report a good side effect after I have been with ubuntu for nearly 3 months
[06:26] <kevinHWH>  /join #ubuntu
[06:26] <tritium> kevinHWH: you're already here :)
[06:27] <kevinHWH> FreeNode
[06:27] <a12345> There is no good MySQL tools inside ubuntu -- and because of this -- I build one -- and would like to promote my freebie here :D
[06:27] <cein> no good mysql tools?
[06:27] <tritium> a12345: which tools did you not find?
[06:28] <a12345> MySQL Sidu -- Free MySQL Client for ubuntu -- check out here : http://mysql.sidu.googlepages.com
[06:28] <sexauer> tritium: I installed qsynaptics and it tells me that I dont have the synaptics driver installed....
[06:28] <tritium> a12345: okay, please don't advertise here
[06:29] <a12345> And some windows guys warns me to change the title to MySQL client -- instead of "for ubuntu" -- well -- I tested, MySQL sidu also works for windows
[06:29] <a12345> OK! sorry - I m not adv here
[06:30] <aajvs99> anybody get Cstrike to run off retail via wine?
[06:30] <ih70> robert98374: You are probably asking about the ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts

[06:30] <gnychis> when trying to run nm-applet i get "/bin/sh: /usr/bin/esd: not found" .. any ideas?
[06:30] <robert98374> in70 thank you :-)
[06:30] <danix> alguien de habla espaola
[06:30] <tritium> !es > danix (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:30] <a12345> I checked SQLyog -- and feedback that SQLyog can also be run by wine -- i do not know how to use wine
[06:30] <ih70> bullgard4: I believe 224. addresses are supposed to be used for broadcast or multicast protocols
[06:30] <tritium> sexauer: please make sure you have the psmouse and evdev modules loaded (sudo modprobe psmouse evdev)
[06:31] <a12345> I would like ubuntu 7.10 to add MySQL Sidu to your source -- that's all
[06:31] <bullgard4> ih70: Do you believe that this is a general rule?
[06:31] <ih70> danix: You hablo un poquito
[06:31] <logmein> a12345: http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/index.html dpkg -i is command to install then follow instructions here: http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb winecfg and regedit are commands you need to know
[06:31] <sexauer> tritium: ran that....nothing came back....
[06:31] <tritium> ih70: not here, please.
[06:32] <Assassin`> how do i make a text (server) executable ?
[06:32] <ih70> bullgard4: I am not sure. I believe I have seen it a lot in Windows being setup as a multicast network
[06:32] <logmein> a12345: try #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:32] <tritium> sexauer: make sure they're autoloaded at boot by placing them in /etc/modules (list them in that file)
[06:32] <a12345> logmein: i m totally a pc dummy -- and i do not know much computer -- as i can do nearly anything in ubuntu -- i do not buther to install wine
[06:32] <Assassin`> i thought it was chmod a+x ()
[06:32] <bullgard4> ih70: I will enquire about that. Thank you.
[06:32] <danix> gracias solo necesitaba un poco de ayuda en linea
[06:33] <logmein> a12345: --well --you --just --need --to --try --it
[06:33] <Assassin`> whats the executable command :(
[06:34] <a12345> cein: yes -- i m not adv my freebies here -- only because so many kind feedbacks about MySQL Sidu -- so that I would like to share with you guys -- as i can not find any mysql free tools inside your package manager -- that's all
[06:34] <sexauer> tritium: psmouse was in there...but not evdev, I added that after psmouse
[06:34] <tritium> a12345: there are many mysql tools.  You should check the universe and multiverse repositories
[06:34] <tritium> sexauer: try restarting X with those modules loaded now
[06:35] <gnychis> how can i disable beeps in the console?
[06:35] <sexauer> tritium:  i'll give it a shot....thanks for the help, i'll bbiaf
[06:35] <a12345> tritium : ?? well i tried and could not find any -- anyway - i have already made one :D
[06:35] <ih70> GSF1200S: Maybe it is an ACPI problem. I am looking for pointers on how to go about finding more and eventually figuring out what is the cause of the problem
[06:36] <tritium> gnychis: do you just care about the gnome terminal?  There is a simple preference you can set.  Otherwise, you can set an option in ~/.inputrc, or system-wide in /etc/inputrc
[06:36] <a12345> i installed wine once -- not sure what to do -- so i deleted it -- the good thing for wine is easy to delete - instead of un-install it -- hehe :D
[06:36] <Yanas> How do I set up Ubuntu to use all my mouse buttons?
[06:37] <cein> yanas -- what type of mouse?
[06:37] <Yanas> a4tech
[06:37] <cein> no idea
[06:37] <tritium> a12345: you'd really want to uninstall the package
[06:38] <amicrawler> hey guys my glx is slow
[06:38] <a12345> cein: how can close your tab ?
[06:38] <amicrawler> 1224 fps
[06:38] <cein> uh
[06:38] <a12345> tritium : what do you mean ?
[06:38] <amicrawler> hey guys my glx is slow
[06:38] <_Ahti> Muahahah! Now i can run my favorite security distros on my favorite distro :P
[06:38] <amicrawler> 1224 fps
[06:39] <tritium> a12345: if you install it, and want it removed, you uninstall it, rather than deleting sytsem files by hand
[06:39] <_Ahti> Thanks to VMware Server
[06:39] <amicrawler> is there a way i can speed it up
[06:39] <Yanas> Isn't there just a general way to use all of my mouse buttons?
[06:40] <tritium> Yanas: how many do you have?  Normally you need not do anything special.
[06:40] <a12345> tritium: thanks - i also think so -- but actually you can simply delete wine --- sorry i m talking about xbox ? i forgot what virture machine i installed last time -- sorry
[06:40] <Yanas> I have 5 buttons, and want to use the Forward and Back ones.
[06:40] <Yanas> The main three work. Wheel / First and Second.
[06:40] <tritium> a12345: ubuntu uses packages.  While you _can_ delete files, you really should uninstall packages.
[06:41] <a12345> but i think ubuntu still need to improve -- i have already seen many many better tools in ubuntu that i have not used in windows :)
[06:41] <Assassin`> what is the +exec command for ubuntu
[06:41] <tritium> Assassin`: chmod +x
[06:42] <a12345> tritium: yes i just up one important feed back for ubuntu -- i can not upgrade thunderbird from 1.5 to 2.0
[06:42] <tovella> Yanas: you may need to manually edit your xorg.conf file.  have a look at this site: http://adterrasperaspera.com/blog/2006/06/20/logitech-g5-review-under-linux/
[06:42] <a12345> why is that ?
[06:42] <Assassin`> no to execute
[06:42] <TheCougar> whats a good tv turner that works on ubuntu?
[06:42] <maeth> plz help, i have succefully reinstall vmware but now i have this error when i start the VM
[06:42] <maeth> Version mismatch with vmmon module: expecting 138.0, got 161.0.
[06:42] <maeth> You have an incorrect version of the `vmmon' kernel module.
[06:42] <maeth> Try reinstalling VMware Player.
[06:43] <sexauer> tritium: restarted x...still not working :(
[06:43] <a12345> tritium: why the update check is grey in thunderbird and firefox ? dummy like me even do not know how to install a software after download it
[06:43] <ih70> maeth: As it says you have one version of VMWare Player and a different version of the kernel module. Which version of Ubuntu are you running?
[06:44] <a12345> i m 100% rely on package
[06:44] <tritium> a12345: 1.5 is the latest version in the feisty repos
[06:44] <[H] Elipsn> does anyone know of a way to share desktop settings between users? Like, I want icon's on my desktop to be the same with root account, and user accounts.....can it be done?
[06:44] <[H] Elipsn> Where one affects the other
[06:44] <Dr_willis> programs updateing theirselfs is sort of not how things work under ubuntu. :) Ya use the package tools to update things.
[06:44] <Yanas> What is the command to edit a file in root user mode?
[06:44] <tritium> [H] Elipsn: perhaps sabayon?
[06:45] <ih70> [H] Elipsn: Probably can create symbolic links between the different account folder.
[06:45] <a12345> but thunderbird can be upgraded from 1.5 to 2 in windows -- i guess ? why you guys hard coded that thunderbird can not be upgraded in ubuntu ? do not joke if my question too stupid
[06:45] <[H] Elipsn> hmmm
[06:45] <tovella> Yanas: sudo
[06:45] <ih70> Yanas: sudo gedit FILENAME
[06:45] <DiaboluZ> Hi, got a problem with my new eggdrop - nevermind what tcl script i load (for public commands) the bot does not react to the commands - any ideas what might be a typical noob error here? :)
[06:45] <Dr_willis> a12345,  windows has it where every user can do admin tyope things.. linux/ubuntu aproacees it from the opposite direction.
[06:46] <tritium> TheCougar: see here: http://www.linuxtv.org/v4lwiki/index.php/Main_Page
[06:46] <Dr_willis> a12345,  a user Could install their own specific version. i guess.. then upgrade it. But not 'system wide'
[06:46] <crdlb> a12345, the idea is that your software gets upgraded when you upgrade to a new release of ubuntu
[06:46] <a12345> Dr_willis: but i can sudo -- still not able to upgrade in ubuntu
[06:47] <tritium> TheCougar: this is where I'd start: http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page
[06:47] <Dr_willis> a12345,  its BEST to use the package manager tools (adept , synaptic and so forth) and update things as they enter the updates/repositories
[06:47] <tritium> a12345: I told you - 1.5 is the latest version there is in the repos
[06:47] <Dr_willis> a12345,  using a programs own built in update feature (which is sort of rare under linux anyway) is not a good idea.
[06:47] <a12345> crdlb: i do not know how package manager works -- can you guy add TB2.0 into it, so that i can install TB 2
[06:47] <LucidFox> does Ubuntu accept free software written in Java?
[06:47] <crdlb> a12345, no, you're supposed to wait for gutsy
[06:48] <crdlb> that's the idea at least
[06:48] <LucidFox> oh, wait, that was a stupid question
[06:48] <a12345> crdlb: ok -- i can wait :)
[06:48] <tritium> !info mozilla-thunderbird gutsy
[06:48] <ubotu> mozilla-thunderbird: Transition package for mozilla-thunderbird rename. In component main, is optional. Version 2.0.0.4~rc1-0ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 57 kB, installed size 104 kB
[06:48] <tritium> a12345: ^^
[06:48] <crdlb> a12345, that way packages are well tested against eachother
[06:49] <k1gwb> Thunderbird is being renamed?
[06:49] <baconbits> Hello
[06:49] <a12345> I also hope when ubuntu7.10 comes, i can play rm and rmvb
[06:49] <crdlb> a12345, actually
[06:49] <crdlb> a12345, there's a mozilla testing repository
[06:49] <crdlb> that shouldn't interfere with the packages that come with ubuntu
[06:50] <a12345> crdlb: i prefer to use ubuntu default software --
[06:50] <crdlb> !moztest

[06:50] <maria> Hello world
[06:50] <maria> My name es Maria
[06:51] <baconbits> Can someone possibly help a ubuntu newb?
[06:51] <a12345> crdlb: or i simply delete all my rm collections:D actually I never watch a second time :)
[06:51] <maria> Go to the chucha
[06:51] <tritium> a12345: you can play real media on ubuntu now
[06:51] <maria> bye
[06:51] <MegaTrousers> Hey Matt.
[06:51] <ih70> baconbits: Just ask your question
[06:51] <ross_stick> greetings wise one
[06:51] <baconbits> OK I don't know anything about linux, basically
[06:51] <a12345> tritium: i read many posts says realone not working well in ubuntu -- so i m scared to install
[06:51] <baconbits> A friend was helping me install ubuntu
[06:52] <baconbits> and I don't have any CDs (I'm on vacation) so he had me use wubi to install it
[06:52] <tritium> !real > a12345 (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:52] <baconbits> I rebooted and ran ubuntu and it went through the install and then had issues with my X server (Which is apparently GUI)
[06:53] <baconbits> Because I have an ATI graphics card, according to my friend
[06:53] <tritium> sexauer: hmm, what does log file show now?
[06:53] <baconbits> He said he knows how to get the proper drivers if I had a wired internet connection
[06:53] <baconbits> But I'm using my grandparents' neighbors' wifi so I don't have a wired connection
[06:53] <k1gwb> !enter | baconbits
[06:53] <ubotu> baconbits: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:54] <tritium> baconbits: ati drivers are supplied on the install CD.  You don't _need_ the proprietary ones for it to work
[06:54] <netdog> baconbits, which verion of ubuntu are you running?
[06:54] <sexauer> tritium: i'll check it, but when I run modprob neither module shows up still though
[06:54] <crdlb> baconbits, do you know what ati card it is?
[06:54] <baconbits> He said he had the same error
[06:54] <baconbits> It's an ATI Mobility radeon (Laptop card)
[06:54] <tritium> sexauer: lsmod | grep <module name> to see if it's loaded
[06:55] <crdlb> baconbits, ati has made many mobility radeons
[06:55] <letronje> hi CPU Frequency Scaling Monitor 2.18.0 gives no options to choose governors. cpufreq-info shows 5 governors .
[06:55] <a12345> tritium: thanks -- also i hope in 7.10 DVD can be played like window media player -- there is no title short cut in the ubuntu's ...? and i have to watch all 30 hours DVD at once -- square eyed
[06:55] <crdlb> baconbits, do you know the model number? something like X1600, or 9800
[06:56] <baconbits> I'm checking
[06:56] <sexauer> tritium: okay...they are loaded....checking logfile....
[06:56] <baconbits> X1400
[06:56] <DiaboluZ> no ideas on my public commands problem with eggdrop anyone?
[06:56] <damageDOne> Hey all. This may be a bit of a stupid question but I tried to install a black theme (ubuntu studio) on edgy but it's only changing the window borders. It's not changing the whole window. Does anyone know why this would be happening?
[06:56] <crdlb> !xconfig | baconbits
[06:56] <ubotu> baconbits: To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  - To configure only the driver and resolution, type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh  - See also !FixRes
[06:56] <crdlb> baconbits, run that second command and choose the "vesa" driver
[06:57] <greg_> Hi, Whi I don't have xserver-xfree86
[06:57] <greg_> ???
[06:57] <tritium> greg_: because you have xserver-xorg now
[06:57] <furenku>  hello, im having a hard time installing supercollider, it asks for "X11/Intrinsic.h", i already installed libxt-dev and all available related packages, but still no luck, any ideas?
[06:57] <baconbits> Is it going to be completely obvious how to do that? I'm not too familiar with linux syntax or whatever
[06:57] <tritium> baconbits: yes, it's a dialog (like a wizard, but text-based)
[06:58] <renic> good evening (or whatever time it may be for you).  I installed ubuntu, and It won't let me su root from a terminal in X.  everything else seems to work fine.  Am i going to have to reboot in single user mode and change the root password?
[06:58] <baconbits> Ok thanks! I'll be back if I have any more issues!
[06:58] <tritium> !sudo | renic
[06:58] <ubotu> renic: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[06:58] <a12345> ok -- thanks - enough break
[06:58] <a12345> cheers
[06:58] <ih70> renic: Ubuntu uses sudo
[06:58] <greg_> All right tritium Have I to edit then  xserver-xorg to have 3D?
[06:58] <i-like-beans> Does anyone have any suggestions on how to monitor a xubuntu file server - like load, running processes, network monitoring, whos accessing samba share etc?
[06:58] <tritium> greg_: no
[06:59] <renic> .. ok :) but why would su not work?
[06:59] <ih70> renic: You can do "sudo su", provide your password and you get a "root" console
[06:59] <sexauer> tritium: same as before...it says it cant find the synaptics touchpad device
[06:59] <crdlb> greg_, what video card do you have?
[06:59] <k1gwb> i-like-beans: webmin.com
[06:59] <tritium> renic: because the root account is disabled
[06:59] <furenku>  hello, im having a hard time installing supercollider, it asks for "X11/Intrinsic.h", i already installed libxt-dev and all available related packages, but still no luck, any ideas?
[06:59] <crdlb> ih70, sudo -i is much better if you're going to do that
[06:59] <tritium> ih70: sudo -i would be more appropriate
[06:59] <penguin> what is the name of the program that automatically installs some not-supported software?
[06:59] <ih70> renic: As I said you need root privelge to run su, so you need to run "sudo su"
[06:59] <tritium> ih70: see above
[06:59] <greg_> I have Nvidia, And I have install now the glx crdlb
[07:00] <jc> if a noob were trying to install nvidia drivers for a geforce 6600 in Ubuntu, would Linux IA32 be the correct ones to download?
[07:00] <sexauer> tritium: it says a bunch of junk about /dev/wacom, not sure what thats all about
[07:00] <tritium> !nvidia > jc (see the private message from ubotu)
[07:00] <crdlb> greg_, did you use the restricted manager?
[07:00] <ih70> tritium: You are correct. "sudo -i" is a better choice
[07:00] <Nuked> sexauer, that was apparently put there by the dev team
[07:00] <sexauer> nuked: that any problem?
[07:00] <Nuked> greetings tritium may I pm you
[07:00] <Montaro> i-like-beans: smbstatus ?
[07:01] <greg_>  O_o I think I cant undertstand :(
[07:01] <tritium> greg_: you followed the instructions to install nVidia restricted drivers?
[07:01] <tritium> Nuked: okay
[07:01] <Nuked> sexauer, I recently asked about that problem on the kubuntu channel
[07:01] <crdlb> greg_, are you on ubuntu feisty?
[07:01] <sexauer> nuked: please tell me u got it fixed....pretty please
[07:01] <tritium> sexauer: that's included in the default xorg.conf
[07:01] <renic> ih90: isn't that a bit odd? su is for assuming root priveledge... If i was logged in as a super user I wouldn't need to run su... lol... anyways, not it is complaining that I must be in a terminal... as if i weren't...
[07:02] <greg_> All right, I ave install  restricted 2.6.20...
[07:02] <renic> went back to console and it worked ok.
[07:03] <ih70> renic: Does "sudo ls" work ?
[07:03] <tritium> renic: which did you do?  sudo -i?
[07:03] <renic> ih90: I switched to tty2 and ran "sudo su"
[07:03] <Madpilot> ih70, you shouldn't need sudo for ls anywhere
[07:03] <renic> just wouldn't work in an Xterm
[07:04] <tritium> renic: don't use sudo su.  Use sudo -i
[07:04] <crdlb> greg_, you used: system>administration>restricted manager?
[07:04] <renic> can I just put myself in the wheel group and run su directly? makes much more sense.
[07:04] <tritium> renic: ubuntu doesn't use the wheel group.  It uses the admin group to grant sudo priveleges.
[07:04] <Nuked> sexauer, that message is given to everyone who doesnt have a wacom tablet
[07:04] <Deep> j #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:04] <Nuked> sexauer it is not an error
[07:05] <greg_> crdlb: No, I go try
[07:05] <ih70> Madpilot: yes, but I habitually use "sudo ls" to force sudo to prompt me for my password, so it does not prompt me again. Anyway in the case he was asking I was trying to figure out if sudo work for him at all
[07:05] <TheCougar> any one get ubuntu to run in virtual PC?
[07:05] <Flannel> renic: Linux doesn't use a wheel group.  Although, the wheel/su thing works a lot like sudoers/sudo.
[07:05] <silverferrari> sup yall
[07:05] <tritium> TheCougar: did you see the URLs I sent you?
[07:06] <k1gwb> TheCougar:  yes i have run ubuntu in vmware and in virtualbox
[07:06] <ih70> TheCougar: Yes, I have at work
[07:06] <TheCougar> tritium: just looked back and saw them. thank you
[07:06] <tritium> no problem, just making sure
[07:06] <TheCougar> ih70: did you have any issues getting it started? whenever i boot up the screen goes nuts in the VPC
[07:06] <TheCougar> k1gwb: ah i'm asking about virtaul PC. i don't have vmware installed
[07:07] <Deep> Not even "cat /dev/urandom" gives gnugp enough random bytes. It's demandning.
[07:07] <Flannel> Deep: play with the mouse and keyboard
[07:07] <cdubya> !vnc
[07:07] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[07:07] <ih70> TheCougar: No issues. But if I recall correctly I am running a somewhat old version of Virtual PC
[07:07] <Flannel> Deep: and yes, it does also just take a while.
[07:07] <Nicholas> hi all, I was wondering what path my digital camera is
[07:07] <tritium> Nicholas: should be under /media/
[07:08] <cotyrothery> can someone tell me the command to make a new directory from the termanal
[07:08] <Deep> Flannel, well, it's on an servercomputer, not really much i can do with the mouse :D especially since im not really 3 feet away from it ^^
[07:08] <Flannel> cotyrothery: mkdir
[07:08] <cotyrothery> thanks
[07:08] <DShepherd> Nicholas, /dev/video0 maybe/.
[07:08] <DShepherd> ?
[07:08] <TheCougar> ih70: ah i'm running the newest one which might be the issue
[07:08] <sexauer> tritium: synaptics_drv.so is being loaded at the begining of the log.....with no error....if that helps any
[07:08] <Flannel> Deep: Then you're going to just have to live with the network card (which just means waiting and doing other stuff)
[07:08] <tritium> sexauer: that's good.
[07:09] <incandenzian> How do I get the Terminal to display a list of processes as the CPU executes them?
[07:09] <sexauer> tritium: just keeps saying it cant find the hardware....weird since it worked in the previous version prior to upgrade...no probs
[07:09] <ih70> TheCougar: Well supposedly the latest one should have official support for Linux guests. Not sure which distros are officially supported though. I guess RedHat and maybe Suse
[07:09] <incandenzian> as in a constantly scrolling list of events, not a real-time summary of the various processes and their stats, but a running log of what the CPU is doing?
[07:09] <tripppy> after a reboot all my shared and mounted drives went from /media/hdd3, etc.... to /media/sdd3
[07:10] <Deep> Flannel, Yeah (8 ill just sit herem stream some music and wait. (:
[07:10] <tripppy> how can i fix this?
[07:10] <tritium> sexauer: hmm...
[07:10] <Deep> Wii (:
[07:10] <Nicholas> When i connect my digital camera ubuntu sees it and ask if i wish to save the pictures but it has trouble transfering the videos. I want to find the path to the SD in the camera to transfers the videos and pictures myself. The camera is not listed in the media folder though
[07:10] <tripppy> its done it 2wice
[07:10] <ih70> TheCougar:  Is this problem while you are booting the LiveCD? Did you try the "safe" option?
[07:10] <Madpilot> tripppy, all drives are SDx now as of the latest Linux kernel
[07:10] <greg_> crdlb: manager of  "acelerated grafics" of nvidia -> without use.  May I  be  click the buttom?
[07:10] <crdlb> greg_, yes
[07:10] <TheCougar> ih70: i'm going to try again right now so i will tell you :)

[07:10] <TheCougar> i forget now i just remember i had issues
[07:10] <renic> flannel: thanks
[07:11] <ih70> Nicholas: You can type "mount" in a teminal and see if the folder is already mounted
[07:11] <tovella> tripppy: /media is where it's supposed to be.
[07:11] <crdlb> greg_, that will download, install, and set up the nvidia driver for you :)
[07:11] <cotyrothery> can someone help me with installing java enviroment for firefox
[07:11] <tripppy> tovella, yeah i know that Madpilot answerd my question
[07:12] <greg_> crdlb:  Well, it say that have to reboot. Im going to. Thanks.

[07:13] <tritium> sexauer: thanks.  Good night :)
[07:13] <maeth> when is the swap memory used??
[07:13] <renic> is there an ftp daemon built into ubuntu? (i already looked for /usr/libexec/ftpd, but alas - it's not bsd)
[07:13] <cotyrothery> can someone help me with installing java for firefox
[07:13] <tritium> renic: heck no.  You'd have to install one.
[07:13] <ih70> Nicholas: My guess is that it's the  /dev/sda1 device mounted at /media/disk. The last line
[07:14] <Nuked> sexauer, what exactly is the problem... do you actually have a wacom tablet and its still giving you the same error
[07:14] <Nuked> ?
[07:14] <ih70> maeth: Swap is used when the kernel decides it need more virtual memory.
[07:14] <Nuked> niekie, are you from scoundrels?
[07:15] <gnychis> after installing ubuntu for the first time, the generic kernel is installed, should i install a more specific kernel?
[07:15] <julius> Hey, I reinstalled linux on a fresh disk and i remebered last time i setup CS with wine i had to specify modelines or something to get it to select resolutions, what woul they have been?
[07:15] <niekie> Nuked: I sure am :D
[07:15] <crdlb> gnychis, no

[07:15] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[07:15] <ih70> gnychis: What platform are you running? What is the output of "uname -a"
[07:15] <crdlb> !generic > gnychis (see the pm from ubotu)
[07:15] <sexauer> nuked: i upgraded from edgy to fiesty and my touchpad on my lappy stopped working...the touchpad is a synaptics ps/2, was working fine previous to the install
[07:15] <renic> crdlb: why not? custom kernels are nice.
[07:15] <niekie> Nuked: I can not be on Jabber at the moment though, got to be gone in a moment.
[07:15] <gnychis> ih70: Linux x60s 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP Thu Jun 7 20:19:32 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[07:16] <sexauer> nuked: the usb mouse works great...but my built in touchpad no longer works....
[07:16] <renic> crdlb: dor ubuntu come with sources installed so you can compile and install new kernels with ease? or is it a pain?
[07:16] <renic> dor = does*
[07:16] <cdubya> is there a better vnc client than what comes in the repos?
[07:17] <ih70> gnychis: You could install a i686 kernel, as opposed to the "generic" i386, but you are not actually going to see any considerable performance difference. I personally would not bother.
[07:17] <crdlb> renic, I've never tried but I certainly wouldn't reccomend it unless you have a very good reason
[07:17] <gnychis> crdlb: thanks for the read
[07:17] <gnychis> ih70: got ya
[07:17] <kelvie> what's the gtk equivalent of amaroK?
[07:17] <crdlb> ih70, the generic kernel is 686

[07:18] <baconbits> I tried using dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh and choosing vesa, but I rebooted after I had completed it all, and I was again presented with a message saying x server wasn't started. if it helps, the error says "No screens"
[07:18] <renic> crdlb: removing compatibility for processors you don't have installed in a system seem to speed things up substantially in other *nix operating systems.
[07:18] <sexauer> nuked: pastebin?

[07:19] <xenex> How do you edit .so files?
[07:20] <renic> !generic
[07:20] <ubotu> Background to the decision to replace -686, k7 and -smp kernels with -generic can be found here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html (the -386 kernel is still available if needed)
[07:20] <pike_> xenex: very carefully
[07:20] <Nuked> adrian que es su modelo de scanner?
[07:20] <greg_> adrian: sabes si te lo detecta?
[07:20] <ih70> TheCougar: Try Alt-F1 for the Menu launcher and Alt-F2 for "run". You can then type "gnome-terminal" to get a terminal
[07:20] <idefixx> xenex: you dont they are binaries
[07:20] <pike_> xenex: thats a lib a binary file most likely
[07:20] <crdlb> xenex, edit?
[07:20] <xenex> oh
[07:20] <xenex> meh
[07:20] <sexauer> nuked: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25480/
[07:21] <idefixx> xenex: what are you trying to do?
[07:21] <xenex> edit a xchat script
[07:21] <TheCougar> ih70: got me right to a prompt. but the bigger issue now is i don't know how to do anything with commands;)

[07:22] <Nuked> sexauer, the synaptics touchpad is loaded
[07:22] <adrian_> ubuntu en espaol
[07:22] <adrian_> ???
[07:22] <kelvie> noiesmo: yeah so do I :P
[07:22] <ih70> TheCougar: in Virtual PC (the same as in VMWare) if you click inside the host window it should "grab" the focus and the mouse should start moving only inside the host. You have to press right Control key to release the control. The keys might be different. See in Settings
[07:22] <TheCougar> ih70: trying to do the install with the keyboard and see if the installed copy will use the mouse
[07:22] <pike_> adrian_: que?
[07:22] <crdlb> xenex, if it's a .so, it's a compiled binary, so you'd need the source code
[07:22] <visham> 3 days on and couldn't solve my nmap problem
[07:22] <Monteh> hey guys, ubuntu extractor, throws this error message at me (  error:  invalid compressed data to inflate  ) does that mean archive damage, or unrecognised archive format?
[07:22] <TheCougar> ih70: yeah i use vpc for a lot of things. its not grabbing the host mouse
[07:22] <adrian_> como entrar aun canal ubuntu en espaol
[07:22] <visham> nmap Os scan run freezes my adsl modem
[07:22] <crdlb> Monteh, what format is it? (what extension)
[07:22] <visham> what is the problem
[07:22] <idefixx> xenex: arent they in phyton or perl usualy? well if there are binary plugins you'll have to recompile it.
[07:22] <sexauer> nuked:  but its not working...i load qsynaptics and it says the driver is not loaded
[07:22] <ih70> TheCougar: Most likely you are going to have the same problems as in the LiveCD
[07:23] <ih70> TheCougar: Not grabbing the mouse is pretty odd
[07:23] <gnychis> how do i setup a different archive from us.archive.ubuntu.com ?
[07:23] <baconbits> Did anyone see my question? Should I ask again? I don't want to be annoying >_>
[07:23] <sexauer> nuked: plus at the bottom of the log, it says that it cant find the hardware
[07:23] <gnychis> (for apt-get)
[07:23] <xenex> idefixx, yeah i have the source code. i just didn't know it was a binary
[07:23] <adrian_> o alguien me podria ayudar
[07:23] <Monteh> .zip crdib
[07:23] <TheCougar> ih70: yeah i agree:-/ and it is extremely slow. i think thats why i thought the display wasn't working before. the live cd took at least 2 minutes to boot even though it was an iso
[07:23] <xenex> idefixx, i've been able to edit .so files before though

[07:24] <gnychis> pike_: so is it broken down by country only?  i can't enter something like a mirror at a university?
[07:25] <crdlb> gnychis, system>administration>software sources
[07:28] <idefixx> xenex: yeah? since they are binarys its shouldnt be possible to 'just' edit them.. i mean you can replace the asm class and so on... but afaik you there is no other way to edit a binary.
[07:28] <crdlb> gnychis, there you can pick a different mirror
[07:28] <Monteh> cheers crdib ill take a look
[07:28] <idefixx> idefixx: class=calls
[07:28] <baconbits> Hello?
[07:28] <pike_> gnychis: oh well yeah you can. just open the file in an editor and place a # comment in front of the one you want to replace and add the new one.  editor command 'gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list'
[07:28] <gnychis> crdlb: i'm on a barebones install, no gnome or anything

[07:28] <Nuked> greg he is going to have to install the gutenprint drivers
[07:28] <crdlb> gnychis, then you edit your sources.list by hand as pike_ said
[07:28] <baconbits> No one is responding to me...I feel invisible
[07:28] <pike_> who said that?
[07:28] <Nuked> greg_ he is going to have to install the gutenprint drivers
[07:28] <TheCougar> ih70: ha even stranger, scroll lock gets turned on every time i click on the virtaul PC to try to lock the mouse
[07:28] <pike_> baconbits: got a problem?
[07:28] <greg_> adrian un buen canal es linux_novatos, pero tienes que mirar en internet como entrar en IRC.HISPANO, que tiene unos servidores
[07:28] <TheCougar> actaully ever time i bring it to the for front
[07:28] <baconbits> Yeah I said it earlier I can resend it though
[07:28] <baconbits> I tried using dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh and choosing vesa, but I rebooted after I had completed it all, and I was again presented with a message saying x server wasn't started. if it helps, the error says "No screens"
[07:28] <ih70> TheCougar: There should be a way to install the equivalent of "VMWare tools" inside the Ubuntu guest and the mouse should work properly then. Don't remember what it was called in Virtual PC. I use mostly VMWare Server and only have a few "inherited" virtual machines inside Virtual PC. For me the big advantage of VMWare over Virtual PC is the support for USB devices.
[07:28] <pike_> baconbits: well no reason to reboot. to test it type 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart'
[07:28] <crdlb> baconbits, wow vesa didn't work :/  do you have any internet connection?
[07:29] <baconbits> My only connection is my grandma's neighbors' wifi...and I tried wget www.google.com and it didn't work, so I'm assuming my wifi card isn't enabled in the console
[07:29] <visham> when i run the command 'nmap -sS -T4 -O scanme.nmap.org' my modem freezes after few seconds although nmap continues scanning and shows little progress
[07:29] <ih70> baconbits: How are you chatting here then? From a different machine?
[07:29] <pike_> baconbits: sudo ifconfig -a    do you have a wifi0 or an ath0 or eth1 or anything?
[07:29] <greg_> adrian:  prueva lo que te dice Nuked, busca gutenprint drivers, a ver si te aparece algo as en el sinaptic
[07:29] <baconbits> From the windows partition
[07:30] <baconbits> If it helps, I do have a USB flash drive...can I somehow get the drivers I need onto it and access them when I'm in ubuntu?
[07:30] <plex0r> hey can anyone help me?
[07:30] <Nuked> greg_ pero yo creo que este modulo es solamente para el printer, y no para el scaner
[07:30] <crdlb> baconbits, yes if you can get the xorg-driver-fglrx package and install that
[07:31] <crdlb> baconbits, then run the dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg command and choose the fglrx driver
[07:31] <pike_> baconbits: its fairly easy to connect to wifi spot if they are not using wpa encryption. once youre connected it would make fixing easier
[07:31] <greg_> OK. adrian, ya lo has "oido" :)
[07:31] <Nuked> crdlb, whats his problem?
[07:31] <plex0r> i installed ubuntu 7.04 64bit alternate version, and the system always freezes, especially while using apt-get, how can i fix this?
[07:31] <baconbits> Is there any way you could get me some step by step instructions? I'm new to ubuntu. Also, they dont have any encryption on their wifi so if that is easier, I could do that.
[07:31] <greg_> whats the command of gear-glx to test?
[07:31] <crdlb> Nuked, even vesa won't work on his ati card, so he need to get fglrx
[07:32] <crdlb> greg_, glxinfo|grep direct
[07:32] <defrysk> greg_, glxinfo | grep direct
[07:32] <greg_> OK :)
[07:32] <crdlb> greg_, that command is actually useful :D you were looking for glxgears though
[07:32] <ih70> plex0r: For the system to freeze you have a hardware problem. You should probably run memcheck from the install CD
[07:32] <niekie> Heh, let's see if Safari for Windows works on Wine :P
[07:32] <adrian> lo intentare
[07:32] <plex0r> ok ih70 i will
[07:32] <defrysk> glxgears is no use for benchmarking
[07:32] <niekie> A browser designed for one OS, running on another "emulated" OS :P
[07:32] <plex0r> but i dont have this problem with any other distribution(slackware, opensuse)
[07:33] <GSF1200S> ih70.. it could be a driver controlling hardware
[07:33] <pike_> this room is filled with hippies!
[07:33] <niekie> pike_: hahaha.
[07:33] <niekie> Aww.. Safari install failed.
[07:33] <Nuked> pike_, !offtopic
[07:33] <niekie> No idea why.
[07:33] <crdlb> baconbits, what wireless chipset do you have? look in the windows device manager you don't know
[07:33] <TheCougar> ih70: the fact that vpc doesn't have usb support is a huge disapointment for me. but it has installed on my systems easier then vmware has in the past
[07:33] <niekie> Hrmm.. found why, I guess..
[07:33] <Nuked> niekie, they released safari for windows
[07:33] <ih70> plex0r: hmm... In that case is it possible you installed the wrong architecture?
[07:33] <kraypius> im trying to compile mac80211 and I get Checking kernel compatibility in:

[07:33] <kraypius>    ! Requires netif_tx_lock_bh ! No compatiblity patch available.
[07:33] <greg_> direct rendering: Yes   ???
[07:33] <niekie> It tried to start the Bonjour service.. while I explicitly said to not do that :P
[07:33] <atrus> any thoughts on why nm-applet would connect to wpa2 networks, but not wide-open unsecured access points?
[07:33] <GSF1200S> virtualbox is awesome
[07:33] <TheCougar> ih70: and yeah the virtaul machine additions can't be installed on a *nix os. microsoft hates all things different:)
[07:33] <crdlb> greg_, it's working then
[07:34] <niekie> Nuked: I know.
[07:34] <niekie> But...
[07:34] <niekie> I'm running Safari for Windows under Wine ;)
[07:34] <niekie> Or at least, trying to.
[07:34] <adrian> oiganhay una pagina que me dice como configurarlo con la terminal pero no se usarla

[07:35] <niekie> Nuked: it is.
[07:35] <aslan> hello, I installed a panel applet in gnome and it brought down the entire gnome panel.. I have removed the package gnome-panel-macaplet
[07:35] <aslan> but if I restart gnome-panel it still seg faults
[07:35] <niekie> Nuked: Though I use a special personal build of Wine.
[07:35] <niekie> With patches.
[07:35] <niekie> So Joost runs on it ;)
[07:35] <aslan> is there a way to reset the panel or remove a config file ?
[07:35] <ih70> TheCougar: MS is now in very tight competition with VMWare in that market. I remember reading a press release that they do support Linux as guest
[07:35] <crdlb> baconbits, that's no good, ubuntu doesn't come with drivers for it
[07:35] <Seiyajin> hi all... i installed Ubuntu via Wubi last night, but I have wireless ethernet so I didn't have a connection... I was then on Windows and just tried plugging in an ethernet cable and rebooted and tried to boot up in Ubuntu
[07:35] <Seiyajin> but I got Error 17
[07:35] <MacDrunk> well see ya all
[07:35] <Seiyajin> any suggestions?
[07:35] <greg_> crdlb: then I can to install beryl ?
[07:35] <niekie> Anyway, got to go now :)
[07:35] <Nuked> niekie, let me try and see if my busted version of wine does the job
[07:36] <crdlb> greg_, yes, if you need help /j #ubuntu-effects  this channel is nuts
[07:36] <grammasta> I just installed kdocker using the synaptic package manager, but it doesn't show up in the menu. First time user of ubuntu 7.04
[07:36] <TheCougar> ih70: yeah i've been able to install various *nix OSes on it in the past. with mixed results
[07:36] <Zenji> Ugh OCD is fun.
[07:36] <niekie> Nuked: could you MemoServ me your findings?
[07:36] <Nuked> sure
[07:36] <adrian> mi escaner no lo se configurar
[07:36] <niekie> Thanks :)
[07:36] <ih70> What the heck is Wubi? Second time someone mentions it
[07:36] <niekie> I'm off now.
[07:36] <baconbits> Its a windows based installer for ubuntu
[07:36] <greg_> OK, I'm going to.
[07:37] <baconbits> it adds ubuntu to the boot record for windows, and installs via windows to free hdd space, without creating a partition
[07:37] <kinkin> is there an easy/best way to configure apache2?
[07:37] <ih70> GSF1200S: I have not tried virtualbox. Does it have USB support? I think it did not have USB when I was reading about it some 2-3 months ago
[07:38] <adrian> ayudenme con mi scaner
[07:38] <GSF1200S> ih70: yeah, it has USB support
[07:38] <grammasta> anyone know anything about kdocker ?
[07:38] <defrysk> grammasta, you are using gnome ?
[07:38] <Seiyajin> so... how the heck do I fix Error 17?
[07:38] <baconbits> Ok so can someone give me step by step for getting the fglrx drivers, as well as the drivers for my wifi card onto my USB flash drive and then installing them?
[07:38] <grammasta> yes
[07:38] <GSF1200S> its also got pointer integration- it automatically captures and releases the mouse, etc...
[07:38] <defrysk> grammasta, kdocker is for kde so uts useless for you
[07:38] <defrysk> its*
[07:39] <ih70> plexor: Yes, GSF1200S is right. The other suspect is a driver. Any "funky" hardware that you can think of?
[07:39] <grammasta> ah...:-) I tried alltray first, but couldn't get it to work
[07:39] <adrian> grtacias por la ayuda
[07:39] <grammasta> I just want to minimize evolution mail to the tray
[07:39] <defrysk> grammasta, alltry is easy to use, first klik the alltray button, then klick the app you wish to dock
[07:40] <baconbits> I'm registered and authed if it'd be easier to pm with me, just fyi
[07:40] <grammasta> yeah, I tried that..but nothing happened when I clicked on the program
[07:40] <idefixx> defrysk: afaik kdocker works with gnome.. never tried it but the description says it does.
[07:40] <defrysk> idefixx, thats intersting, did not know that ..
[07:40] <Nuked> how do I leave a memo for someone?
[07:40] <baconbits> use memoserv
[07:41] <baconbits> /msg memoserv help
[07:41] <grammasta> where do i click ?
[07:41] <_Ahti> ooh i love VMware
[07:41] <renic> crdlb: interesting article, but it didn't really address the reasons why I would typically compile a custom kernel (i.e. for very specific workloads, or for use on a "less than modern" system).  I wonder how much of ubunto is statically compiled into the kernel, and how much is loaded as modules during boot.
[07:41] <baconbits> Ok so can someone give me step by step for getting the fglrx drivers, as well as the drivers for my wifi card onto my USB flash drive and then installing them?
[07:42] <crdlb> renic, everything that can be a module is a module
[07:42] <defrysk> grammasta, as soon as you klick the alltray button in the menu your cursor becomes a + click that + on the app you wish to dock
[07:42] <Nuked> baconbits thanks
[07:42] <baconbits> No prob
[07:42] <Seiyajin> Booting find /wubi/boot/grub/menu.lst
[07:42] <Seiyajin> Find--set-root-- ignore  floppies /wubi/boot/grub/menu.lst
[07:42] <Seiyajin> Error 17: File not found
[07:42] <Seiyajin> Booting find /menu.lst
[07:42] <Seiyajin> Find--set-root- ignore  floppies /menu.lst
[07:42] <Seiyajin> Error 17: file not found
[07:42] <Seiyajin> that's what I get
[07:42] <grammasta> yeah, I get the + icon, but no matter where I click in the Evolution Mail window, nothing happens
[07:42] <defrysk> grammasta, dont click the box that pops up , that box is a cancel box
[07:43] <Seiyajin> how do I find the file?
[07:43] <renic> crdlb: and is everything that can't be a module necessary? :)
[07:43] <defrysk> grammasta, alltray works like a charm here, not sure what goes wrong then
[07:43] <grammasta> yeah, I know, but nothing happens when I click outside of that....(got evolution mail open when I start alltray)
[07:44] <tyoc> Hi there, I have an nvidia 8800, but in the newest driers of nvidia for linux, the support list is only to 8600, will this drivers work with my graphic card???
[07:44] <renic> not trying to sound like I know what i'm talking about, just want to learn... being new to linux.
[07:44] <crdlb> tyoc, the 8800 came out first
[07:44] <tyoc> then, it is already supported?
[07:48] <crdlb> tyoc, even the 9755 driver supports the 8800.  the packages in ubuntu's repositories have a bug which prevents them from working with the 8800
[07:48] <mythtv> Brian-myth
[07:48] <grammasta> can i click anywhere in the window, or is there somewhere special I have to click ?
[07:48] <tyoc> crdbl, then I get best if I install the latest ones?
[07:48] <defrysk> grammasta, just click the + inside the evolution mail window
[07:48] <baconbits> I still need help :D
[07:48] <tyoc> Linux Display Driver - x86 Version: 100.14.09
[07:48] <grammasta> what should happen when i do that ?
[07:48] <crdlb> tyoc, in general I never recommend installing the drivers outside of the repositories, so what you can do is install the driver with the restricted drivers manager, and then copy over the missing file (libwfb.so)
[07:48] <crdlb> tyoc, there are numerous guides to this on the ubuntu forums
[07:48] <tyoc> OK, then I will check them out
[07:48] <defrysk> grammasta, evolution mail minimises and you'll see a mail tray icon appearing
[07:48] <baconbits> I still need help :D
[07:48] <grammasta> that doesn't happen here.....
[07:48] <Tarkus> anyone here use banshee music player? im trying to figure out why it gives me this error when i try to import these files: http://img482.imageshack.us/img482/3603/screenshotld0.png
[07:49] <grammasta> is there any way I can set alltray up so that when i click minimize in evolution mail, it will minimize to the tray ?
[07:49] <baconbits> And just like that, no one is helping anyone :(
[07:49] <kraypius> why is this happening? http://pastebin.ca/565849
[07:50] <ih70> baconbits: If you were to ask a question, maybe someone would
[07:50] <defrysk> grammasta, it does not work that way, first open the evolution mailbox, then klick alltray icon, then click the evolution gui and it will dock
[07:50] <gnychis> is there something i can read up for hibernating my laptop?
[07:50] <baconbits> ih70 I asked it ages ago...should I continue asking?
[07:50] <ih70> baconbits: I have not seen it "ages ago"
[07:50] <grammasta> I've tried to do that, but it's not working.....do I have to restart the computer ?
[07:51] <geeksauce> hey, can anyone explain to me how to connect to a unic share?
[07:51] <defrysk> nope
[07:51] <geeksauce> unix
[07:51] <defrysk> grammasta, not sure whart is wrong, it works like a charm here
[07:51] <tovella> baconbits: i've been working on a few problems in a few different channels & did not see your question.
[07:51] <grammasta> hmmm....that sucks........I want to have evolution open, but not take up space on the bottom
[07:51] <ih70> geeksauce: What would be the definition of "unix share"?
[07:52] <baconbits> I have an ATI card that is apparently not supported by the vesa drivers. I was told I need the flgrx drivers, but I'm not on a wired connection and the driver for my wifi isn't built into linux. I have a usb drive...my idea was that I could possibly get both those drivers onto my usb drive and install them from there. problem is, I'm completely new (hours) to linux, so I don't know how to do that. I am on windows partition right now.
[07:52] <geeksauce> ih70: NFS share
[07:52] <kraypius> why can i never get an answer in this room unless im asking a complete n00b question
[07:52] <ih70> geeksauce: Sorry, not familiar with NFS
[07:53] <geeksauce> ih70: it's the industry standard *nix file sharing protocol
[07:53] <PurpZeY> kraypius: Sorry, I don't know about that information.
[07:53] <grammasta> any other program I can use instead of alltray ?
[07:54] <tovella> baconbits: yes, you could put the drivers on another drive.  i would get the stuff you need for your wi-fi, & put them on there, as well.
[07:54] <defrysk> grammasta, there is one other option and that is a mail notification applet : sudo apt-get install mail-notification-evolution
[07:54] <_Ahti> Hello, when i wan't to copy a large amount of files with "cp". Is there a command that will copy everything BUT a selected file/dir of my choice?
[07:54] <ih70> kraypius: If I am not mistaken it says it can't find "curses.h"
[07:54] <grammasta> alright, I'll check that out
[07:55] <kraypius> yeah i see
[07:55] <baconbits> Exactly...But I wouldn't know a trustworthy place to get those drivers, what they would be called, how to make sure I get the right version, or how to access and install them once I boot to ubuntu
[07:55] <kraypius> i used the apt source package
[07:55] <kraypius> shouldnt it have this?
[07:55] <tritium> kraypius: sudo aptitude install libncurses5
[07:56] <ih70> kraypius: I don't think that getting the source package installs the necessary dependencies needed to build that package
[07:56] <mage> might need -dev (random guess)
[07:56] <tritium> right, mage
[07:56] <tovella> baconbits: which ati card & wi-fi?
[07:56] <kraypius> i already have that lib installed
[07:56] <tritium> baconbits: why are you trying vesa?  Did you try the open "ati" driver?  (not fglrx)
[07:57] <tritium> kraypius: the -dev version?
[07:57] <kraypius> by source package i mean linux-source-2.6.20
[07:57] <ih70> kraypius: I am not sure, but if you try to build a .deb from the source it should then install all the -dev packages it needs
[07:57] <baconbits> Intel Wireless Wifi Link 4965AGN
[07:57] <baconbits> and it's the X1400 ATI Mobility radeon
[07:57] <tritium> baconbits: I'm asking about your video driver
[07:58] <kraypius> tritium, thanks, that dev lib fixed it
[07:58] <Jerichau> hey all, i ran and apt-get update && apt-get upgrade last night and wasn't able to get a couple of program working this morning, is there anyway to check which packages were updated (I didn't really look at the list at the time)
[07:58] <tritium> kraypius: no problem
[07:59] <baconbits> I tried vesa because I was told to. When I first started ubuntu after installing, it said "No screens" after it said it couldnt start the x server or whatever. I asked here and someone told me to try vesa. I did and it gave me the same error, so they said I'd need fglrx
[07:59] <tritium> baconbits: you should try "ati" and "radeon" before vesa
[07:59] <sparr> if vesa says no screens, i think the problem may be more serious
[08:00] <sparr> you should read your /var/log/Xorg.0.log and find the problems
[08:00] <tovella> baconbits: the driver you need for the ati card is  xorg-driver-fglrx
[08:00] <crdlb> tritium, there is no r500 support in the radeon dirver
[08:00] <crdlb> not even 2d
[08:00] <tritium> crdlb: okay, then ati
[08:00] <crdlb> tritium, ati = radeon
[08:00] <defrysk> if vesa does not work , nothing will work
[08:00] <ih70> baconbits: AFACS the driver for the Intel Wifi is http://intellinuxwireless.org/  It is very new, so it's probably not in the normal repos yet.
[08:00] <tritium> crdlb: there is no difference at all?
[08:01] <crdlb> ati is just a wrapper that loads radeon or r128
[08:01] <tritium> ah, right
[08:01] <tovella> baconbits: for the driver for your wi-fi, have a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Intel_4965_AGN_WiFi_Driver/Fiesty
[08:01] <tritium> defrysk: I've had vesa not work, yet other drivers do
[08:01] <crdlb> and I have heard of ati cards not working of vesa
[08:01] <crdlb> on*
[08:01] <defrysk> tritium, ooh
[08:02] <v3n0m`> I need help getting tv tuner working?
[08:02] <tritium> defrysk: but in general, I think what you said _should_ be true
[08:03] <baconbits> Now where do I get fglrx?
[08:03] <zeeeee> help, i can't really tell where my ssh login is failing (and why). it *seems* like i'm actually able to log in and start the login shell (/usr/NX/bin/nxserver)...but then what happens? http://rafb.net/p/TzIWDf18.html
[08:04] <Frogzoo> fglrx is in the repos for "restricted" drivers - xorg-driver-fglrx
[08:04] <kazim59> is it possible to import my Windows/Fonts to Ubuntu?
[08:04] <tritium> baconbits: if you need to transfer it on a usb stick or similar due to not having internet access, get it off of packages.ubuntu.com
[08:05] <baconbits> Where at? I'm there now, but I don't know where to go
[08:05] <tovella> baconbits: looking to find where you can get the files.
[08:05] <sparr> I have a Gigabyte GA-M61PM-S2 motherboard with onboard audio.  Manual says Realtek ALC883 chip.  LSPCI says "nVidia Corporation MCP61 High Definition Audio".  lsmod says I am using snd_hda_intel.  Audio in most OSS games has static/clicking/popping.  ALSA games work fine. Help?
[08:05] <Frogzoo> kazim59: sure
[08:05] <Zvezdichko`away> hello, how to install mp3 support for Rhytmbox?
[08:05] <Frogzoo> !fonts | kazim59
[08:05] <ubotu> kazim59: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer

[08:06] <kazim59> Frogzoo: thanks
[08:06] <puff> How do I figure out which version of bluez I have installed?
[08:07] <baconbits> Which one do I dl, amd64 or 1386?
[08:07] <ih70> puff: dpkg -l | grep bluez
[08:07] <baconbits> i386*
[08:07] <tritium> puff: or, apt-cache policy bluez
[08:07] <tovella> baconbits: does your machine have an intel or an amd processor?
[08:07] <baconbits> intel
[08:07] <tyoc> hey crdbl, you have say " tyoc, in general I never recommend installing the drivers outside of the repositories, so what you can do is install the driver with the restricted drivers manager, and then copy over the missing file (libwfb.so)"
[08:07] <tovella> baconbits: http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/restricted/l/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20/xorg-driver-fglrx_7.1.0-8.34.8+2.6.20.5-16.28_i386.deb
[08:08] <baconbits> OK so I save that to my usb drive...then what's the process for installing it?
[08:08] <bluebanana> how do i run a foo.sh file?
[08:08] <puff> Hm, says bluez 3.9.
[08:08] <bluebanana> is there a point-and-click way to run an .sh file?
[08:08] <puff> ih70, tritium, gracias.
[08:08] <sparr> bluebanana: doubleclick it
[08:08] <tyoc> what you mean with the missing file??
[08:08] <tyoc> Im reading http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Latest_nvidia_feisty and havent found any note about it??
[08:08] <tritium> baconbits: sudo dpkg -i </path/to/foo.deb>
[08:09] <baud-chan> sup?
[08:09] <tyoc> puth execution permission over the file and double click it, or in a terminal do chmod +x file.sh or simply do sh file.sh
[08:09] <tovella> baconbits: after you get the file on your usb drive, you should be able to navigate to the drive, and double-click on the file.  it should open gdebi, which is a graphical package installer.
[08:09] <ih70> bluebanana: Yes, double-click on it as on any other executable. For this to work the file needs to have the "execute" flag -  # chmod +x file.sh
[08:10] <baconbits> I dont know how to navigate, and if its in the console how would I double click?
[08:10] <tritium> baconbits: see what I told you above.  The path should be somewhere under /media
[08:10] <sahil_> anyone know how i can change the openoffice splash screen?
[08:10] <tyoc> open nautilus, ALT+F2 write nautilus
[08:10] <tovella> baconbits: i'm not talking about using the console, i'm talking about doing it the graphical way.
[08:11] <tritium> tovella: he has no X right now
[08:11] <baconbits> well that wou;d be hard without x
[08:11] <tovella> tritium: oh...
[08:11] <baconbits> lol
[08:11] <moustafa> Can I know who block me on aMSN?
[08:11] <baconbits> tritium how will I know the path
[08:12] <tritium> baconbits: it depends on your usb stick, but it should show up under /media after you plug it in
[08:12] <moustafa> Hello
[08:12] <baud-chan> I need some sound card support, I am using a gateway MT6458.
[08:12] <moustafa> Can nobody help me?
[08:12] <baconbits> tritium well I'm a total newb so I don't know how to navigate around
[08:12] <moustafa> Can I know who block me on aMSN?
[08:12] <tritium> baconbits: with the "cd" command
[08:12] <puff> configure: error: Sorry, you should install the libbluetooth library before trying to compile this package
[08:12] <baconbits> tritium just like windows?
[08:12] <tovella> baconbits: then "sudo dpkg -i xorg-driver-fglrx_7.1.0-8.34.8+2.6.20.5-16.28_i386.deb" would be the best bet.
[08:13] <puff> dpkg -l libbluetooth1 --> ii  libbluetooth1            2.24-0ubuntu1            Library to use the BlueZ Linux Bluetooth stack
[08:13] <puff> Wtf?
[08:13] <tritium> baconbits: I guess
[08:13] <ih70> puff: What exactly is the problem
[08:14] <puff> ih70: Trying to build avetanabt.sourceforge.net, on top of bluez.  Not working :-(.
[08:14] <tritium> moustafa: perhaps there is an amsn channel in which you can ask that question
[08:14] <tritium> puff: that's not a -dev library
[08:14] <moustafa> Thank you
[08:14] <puff> tritium: Come again?
[08:14] <ih70> puff: What is the error you are getting?
[08:14] <crdlb> tyoc, ok: use the restricted drivers manager, then before rebooting, follow: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2687780&postcount=16
[08:14] <tritium> puff: you don't have a development library with headers installed.  You only have the shared libs installed.
[08:15] <crdlb> tyoc, are you using 32bit?
[08:15] <puff> I'm mostly working from these instructions:   http://www.valhallachat.com/?q=book/export/html/11
[08:15] <tritium> puff: i.e., get the -dev version of the library package
[08:15] <lumai> #
[08:15] <crdlb> baconbits, one thing worth considering is to install a driver for your linux partition in windows
[08:16] <crdlb> baconbits, then you can place the .deb in /home/username/ and it'll be much easier to install
[08:16] <lekremyelsew> crdlb: you can?
[08:16] <crdlb> lekremyelsew, yes
[08:16] <puff> tritium: Ah-hah... now I see it.
[08:16] <tyoc> crdlb, thanks for the help
[08:16] <tovella> tritium: ..."show up under /media after you plug it in"  ...will that work (automount) without the gui?
[08:16] <tritium> tovella: yes
[08:16] <tyoc> yes, Im using 32 bit
[08:16] <ih70> puff; Did you install "libbluetooth1-dev" ?
[08:16] <tovella> tritium: good to know.
[08:16] <tritium> ih70: I told him to
[08:16] <puff> tritium: will libbluetooth-dev and libbluetooth2-dev confict?
[08:17] <Tarkus> anyone here use banshee music player? im trying to figure out why it gives me this error when i try to import these files: http://img482.imageshack.us/img482/3603/screenshotld0.png
[08:17] <tritium> puff: they may.  You'd have to investigate
[08:17] <puff> There doesn't appear to be a libbluetooth1-dev, just libbluetooth-dev.
[08:17] <puff> Hm.
[08:17] <NeXtDaY> I read an article about how to install wine.. it says that winecfg must be installed with with wine.. do I install winecfg manually?
[08:17] <tritium> NeXtDaY: it's in the wine package
[08:17] <|_ocke> NeXtDaY, it is part of wine
[08:17] <baconbits> tritium I'll go try that...if it doesn't work i'm going to bed and I'll be abck tomorrow
[08:17] <tritium> baconbits: I'm goign to bed also
[08:17] <baconbits> Thanks tritium and tovella
[08:18] <tritium> going*
[08:18] <NeXtDaY> aha thanks tritium |_ocks :)
[08:18] <tovella> baconbits: happy sleeping.
[08:18] <tritium> Good luck, baconbits.  If you have troubles, we'll see you tomorrow.
[08:18] <tritium> NeXtDaY: :)
[08:18] <baconbits> You too, thanks, see ya tomorrow if it doesn't work!
[08:18] <|_ocke> NeXtDaY, np
[08:19] <NeXtDaY> tritium: another question please: do i need to run winecfg before running wine?
[08:19] <|_ocke> NeXtDaY, its a good idea
[08:19] <kraypius> tritium, what is this thing complaining about? http://pastebin.ca/565868
[08:19] <|_ocke> i dont see why youd ask instead of running it first to find out anyways :)
[08:20] <NeXtDaY> |_ocke lol
[08:20] <NeXtDaY> |_ocke: I am still new to Ubuntu.. gimme a break ;-)
[08:20] <|_ocke> anything that is 'cfg' or 'config' i think would be common sense or at least curiosity to run before running any program
[08:20] <tovella> Tarkus: what error message do you get?
[08:20] <ih70> puff: It can't find the file dev.c
[08:21] <|_ocke> NeXtDaY, well, in taht case.. its common sense or at least you should be curious enough to run configuration of any program befopre running the program
[08:21] <|_ocke> besides, you want it to run the way you intend and operate on the data you intend anyways, right?
[08:21] <NeXtDaY> |_ocke right
[08:21] <tovella> Tarkus: oh, i see it now.
[08:22] <NeXtDaY> |_ocke ok. thats clear so far..
[08:22] <|_ocke> so always try configuring everything first is the moral here
[08:23] <Icehawk78> If you wish to create a user in MySQL that can be connected to from any host, what would you specify under the host column?
[08:24] <tovella> Tarkus: i have no idea about why banshee would do this.  have you tried other music players?  exaile, maybe?
[08:25] <Tarkus> tovella, it works in everything else yeah. but banshee is the player that i use and like.
[08:27] <tovella> Tarkus: i can't find anything about why, nor how to fix it.
[08:28] <tovella> Tarkus: i like the screenshot, though.  what theme is it?  where can i get it?
[08:29] <sahil_> so anyway to replace the openoffice splash screen?
[08:29] <moustafa> Can nobody help me? I would like to ask about any program make a chat voice like " Yahoo " but in ubuntu 7.4 ?
[08:29] <khin> hi, i just downloaded gnutella-gtk, but how do i use it? first idea was just hit search but that doesnt do anything
[08:29] <Toulouse> hey guys, i can get to a computer using vnc, but how do i get to is using ssh?
[08:29] <Toulouse> im new to this stuff
[08:30] <kinkin> how can i check to see what services are running, like mysql?
[08:30] <tovella> khin: i used to use that program.  it's got a lot of features & functions that might be best found on their documentation page.
[08:30] <ketamine> i just downloaded a file on desktop
[08:30] <ketamine> and i dont know where did it go
[08:30] <ketamine> lol
[08:30] <gnychis> is there a nice GUI to install new apt mirrors?
[08:31] <Toulouse> also, how  can i get internet on a computer that is connected via network cable to a computer that has internet?
[08:31] <kinkin> Toulouse: easiest way is with a router
[08:31] <tovella> gnychis: System > Administration > Software Sources.
[08:31] <sparr> Toulouse: the one computer has to be set up as a router and a gateway, and the other has to use it
[08:31] <Toulouse> okie dokie
[08:32] <Toulouse> nvm, this is not a permanent setup
[08:32] <sparr> or you just get a hardware router and connect them both
[08:32] <Toulouse> but how do i transfer files from one to the other?
[08:32] <khin> ok ill look at their docs

[08:42] <Flannel> sorry
[08:42] <Plantain> Thanks
[08:42] <Flannel> Itr0nic: Check the md5 of your ISO file, to make sure it's good, and then burn again at 4x

[08:43] <Plantain> mmmh, That's what I was doing before, but it complains about the fstab
[08:43] <Plantain> I'll read the guide
[08:43] <Flannel> AJ--: best thing to do is to see what your message is being flagged as spam for.  At the end of the header for the message, you'll get a spam score with a breakdown usually.
[08:44] <renic> or rather the second link
[08:44] <UNDERsoN> Who can Help me make-kpkg said me that nothing to be done. Should I do make befor this command or not?
[08:45] <renic> what is the ubuntu equivelant of .xinitrc ?
[08:45] <sakredei> so kind of random question but: my neighbor is using my internet and i don't really care but she doesn't know i know (connected through wireless) anyway is there anyway i can send her  a message or something through the router?
[08:45] <renic> or will xorg process an .xinitrc if i make one?
[08:45] <Plantain> Thanks for the ISO link, worked a treat
[08:46] <renic> sakredei what OS is she using?
[08:46] <sakredei> windows
[08:46] <renic> there is a messaging service that used to be running by default on xp
[08:46] <sakredei> i'm on ubuntu
[08:46] <renic> if she's not firewalled you may be able to send a message.... pops up like an "alert java box" kind of.

[08:48] <moustafa> I mean chat with mic
[08:48] <moustafa> chat voice
[08:48] <renic> sakredei: start here http://www.itc.virginia.edu/desktop/docs/messagepopup/
[08:48] <renic> tells you how to disable it
[08:48] <UNDERsoN> idefixx No, I should run it in fake root. No everething is fine. I just Read This Fine Manual )
[08:48] <renic> a decent place to start
[08:48] <sakredei> thanks :)
[08:48] <NeXtDaY> Flannel: what is Samba?
[08:49] <idefixx> UNDERsoN: if everything is fine... i cant help you.

[08:50] <moustafa> Nice to see you
[08:51] <moustafa> What about you?
[08:51] <NeXtDaY> hehe.
[08:51] <a12345> Simple question -- what can you make good use of "working desktop" the 2 box -- which located on right hand side of the foot menu bar
[08:51] <Itr0nic> can find the hash in the md file
[08:51] <Itr0nic> cant*
[08:52] <a12345> you can open multiple gedit or Firefox in one working desktop any way ---
[08:52] <a12345> any idea ?
[08:52] <moustafa> NextDay, Where are you from?
[08:52] <enzo_sann> Buongiorno.. ci sono Italiani in chat?
[08:53] <renic> moustafa: http://messenger.yahoo.com/unix.php  <-- maybe that will be helpful since you mentioned yahoo.
[08:53] <moustafa> Andiamo
[08:53] <NeXtDaY> moustafa: come to #noborders
[08:54] <moustafa> ok
[08:54] <NeXtDaY> renic: what is the best program for voice chatting in Ubuntu?
[08:54] <Flannel> a12345: each workspace can hold its own programs, so you can have one for [activity X]  and one for [activity Y]  and you can keep them separate but both still open (or two related things, but still things best to keep separate, references on one, editors on the other, etc)
[08:55] <moustafa> Thanks alot
[08:55] <Flannel> gnomemeeting does h232.  Er, Ekiga.  So anything else that complies to the standard (MS netmeeting, and a slew of others) can chat.
[08:55] <Plantain> erm... I made the possibly fatal mistake of mounting two ISO's to one mountpoint
[08:55] <Plantain> how can I unmount both of them?
[08:56] <idefixx> Plantain: just unmount twice.
[08:56] <Plantain> idefixx: Doesn't work
[08:56] <Plantain> nothing happens
[08:56] <Plantain> and through the gui I get an error saying it's mounted twice
[08:56] <yo2k_> how i install mysql on ubuntu 7.04 ?
[08:56] <a12345> Flannel: I know . But as now - multiple programs can also be run at the same time -- so what is the selling point ? -- i know old unix machine has to have 4 of them --?
[08:57] <idefixx> Plantain: you'll have to supply the mountpoint as target not the device i guess.
[08:57] <moustafa> How can i log as root?
[08:57] <Madpilot> a12345, personally, I run eight virtual desktops, generally 1 app per desktop
[08:57] <Flannel> a12345: Ubuntu has two by default (since... edgy?) before that was four.  The "selling point" is that you don't have to keep shuffling between applications, minimizing/maximizing, moving them around.
[08:57] <Itr0nic> ok the hash file is a match , could the 1 file have made my install not work it would it have to do with the way i burnt the image?
[08:57] <idefixx> idefixx: also run it as root with sudo
[08:57] <Flannel> moustafa: You don't need to.  Ubuntu uses sudo instead of he root account.
[08:58] <idefixx> Plantain: also run it as root with sudo
[08:58] <Geoffrey> hi

[09:05] <stinger_au> how do i get this public key
[09:05] <varka> moustafa: you mean the original yahoo messenger?
[09:06] <stinger_au> i tried wget http://mirror.randumb.org/darkmagez/repo/DB5D6B0AA3012FB3.gpg - O | sudo apt-key add but that did not work
[09:06] <Flannel> Frogzoo: you can do it in the BIOS, and a few other places that I forget
[09:06] <moustafa> yes
[09:06] <varka> moustafa: no, there is a less featured and pretty old linuxport of it from yahoo themselves but believe me, gaim is a better alternative
[09:06] <cotyrothery> Anyone know what the next release of ubuntu is going to have in it
[09:07] <gnychis> does anyone know what application this runs: "System > Administration > Software Sources"  I don't have gnome installed but want to use the GUI for selecting mirrors
[09:07] <moustafa> How can i get it?
[09:07] <varka> moustafa: do you want to make use of webcam and voicechat?
[09:07] <renic> are there any good articles out there on tuning ubuntu?  I installed it for use as a DAW, and any improvement in performance is more than welcome since i will be running a lot of audio plugins and other resource hungry bits of software.
[09:07] <moustafa> yes

[09:07] <moustafa> I want to enter any chat voice

[09:08] <moustafa> Thanks for helping me Varka

[09:08] <sahil_> Flannel
[09:08] <Hypo> Hi, which download manager (GUI prefferably included) would you recommend for a linux noob?
[09:09] <sahil_> Flannel, you know when you choose your operating system

[09:10] <Flannel> sahil_: ok.  You'll need to double check those numbers, since neither are proper kernel versions

[09:10] <lkthomas> if I want dual monitor with two seperate card, should I just use mergedFB ?

[09:11] <moustafa> Thanks for helping me Varka

[09:12] <CyberMad> Flannel ok, thanks
[09:12] <Itr0nic> do i have to install ubuntu on c drive?
[09:13] <Jordan_U> Can I control my fan speed through software?
[09:13] <Flannel> Itr0nic: no, you can install it anywhere
[09:13] <anandanbu> Flannel: i have installed it but after that configuration is the problem for me
[09:13] <idefixx> gnychis: yep it is... but it'll probably pull a whole bunch of dependencies with it.
[09:14] <Itr0nic> Flannel : does it give me a option when i install it?
[09:14] <Flannel> Itr0nic: yes
[09:14] <Itr0nic> ty
[09:14] <Jordan_U> Itr0nic, You can tell the Ubuntu installer to install to whatever drive you want, you can even have it resize your Windows partition ( C: ) and have Ubuntu and Windows on the same drive
[09:14] <varka> Itr0nic: http://fullcirclemagazine.org/download-manager.php?id=1
[09:15] <sahil_> Flannel, sorry about that. My system is also very unstable
[09:15] <Flannel> anandanbu: Ah, uh, that page says to ask in the ubuntu forums, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=385981, which actually appears to have updated instructions.  Might be the best place to ask
[09:15] <sahil_> can somebody please help me
[09:15] <Flannel> sahil_: pastebin your menu.lst (/boot/grub/menu.lst)
[09:15] <sahil_> what is pastbin?
[09:15] <Flannel> !pastebin | sahil_
[09:15] <ubotu> sahil_: 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)
[09:15] <necro> Flannel: thank you.  It's up and running, but no sound.  Is it possible it's using the wrong audio card?
[09:16] <sahil_> Flannel, i cannot open the menu.lst file even with sudo from terminal
[09:16] <sahil_> sudo gedit boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:16] <Flannel> sahil_: You don't need to use sudo.  And you missed the leading /: `gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst`

[09:18] <sahil_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25483/
[09:22] <Flannel> sahil_: this looks normal.  You'll also notice that it's not 2.1.5 nor 2.1.6, but 2.6.20-15 and 2.6.20-16.  Anyway, whats the issue?  2.5.20-16 doesn't work?  What error does it give?  It's probably all the funky duplicate boot parameters.  Try `sudo update-grub`  that'll regenerate your menu.lst without all the oddities.

[09:22] <Stormx2> I haven't even done anything to break it
[09:23] <Myrtti> then what have you done?
[09:23] <Flannel> Stormx2: bugs happen.  Have you checked launchpad to see if its happened withanyone else?
[09:23] <Stormx2> Uhg
[09:23] <Stormx2> Well
[09:23] <Stormx2> It seems like a pretty big bug to be honest o.O
[09:23] <Flannel> sahil_: I'd try sudo update-grub and try again.
[09:24] <sahil_> Flannel i did that, I will restart now an come back
[09:24] <sahil_> thanks for all your help, i was in a distress situation

[09:24] <Stormx2> I'll just apt-get epiphany
[09:24] <Flannel> Stormx2: It doesn't mean it's happening for very many people.  Bugs are unknown until they happen ;)
[09:24] <Stormx2> hm
[09:24] <Stormx2> okay.
[09:24] <Stormx2> well
[09:24] <Stormx2> I'll check.

[09:29] <Flannel> Stormx2: try rebooting.  Theres a bug, just like yours, says that after a reboot, it workd.
[09:29] <Stormx2> Flannel: I tried that
[09:29] <Stormx2> Flannel: Instead of segfaulting it just crashed
[09:29] <CheshireViking> Flannel, just wondering about sahil_'s problem, they said that the xserver fails to start, did they mention which graphics card they had? if its nvidia and its not the driver installed via the repo's, could be they need to reinstall the driver, i use the nvidia driver & after the last kernel updates thats what I had to do
[09:29] <Stormx2> Flannel: I've got it working now. I had to hit "restore session"
[09:29] <Frogzoo> Myrtti: kk, lagging badly
[09:29] <Flannel> Frogzoo: cat /proc/cpuinfo  will show how many cores you currently 'have'
[09:29] <twiztr> How do I make it so my screen doesn't fade out while I'm watching movies or whatever.
[09:29] <Flannel> CheshireViking: no, he didn'tmention anything, but he had some pretty funky stuff going on in his menu.lst, we'll see if that fixes it.
[09:29] <Frogzoo> Flannel: ht doesn't appear as an additional core seemingly
[09:29] <Flannel> Frogzoo: yes it does
[09:29] <CheshireViking> Flannel, rite, i didn't look at his paste
[09:29] <Flannel> Frogzoo: check the flags at the end, is there a 'ht' there?
[09:29] <gnychis> how do i determine how much swap space is in use?
[09:30] <idefixx> gnychis: 'free -m'
[09:30] <idefixx> gnychis: or any other tool gnome and kde both got some kind of system monitor.
[09:30] <twiztr> Anyone...?
[09:31] <chazco> hi... running Ubuntu 6.10 - the update manager keeps informing me that i have updates to install. When I open it and click "Install Updates" it says checking for updates then does nothing (returns to the list). Any ideas?
[09:31] <Frogzoo> Flannel: nope - I'm think Pentium M isn't capable of HT ?
[09:31] <idefixx> twiztr: it usualy doesnt... what movie player are u using?
[09:31] <Flannel> Frogzoo: appears not to
[09:31] <nullkuhl> guys is it bad to have kde applications running on gnome ?
[09:31] <Flannel> chazco: returns to the list? the list of updates to install?
[09:32] <idefixx> nullkuhl: no
[09:32] <chazco> yes
[09:32] <grub_booter> does anyone know the command line equivalent of the synaptic 'fix broken packages' menu item?
[09:32] <nullkuhl> lol
[09:32] <sakrede1> is there anyway to put panels back to default in ubuntu?
[09:32] <nullkuhl> no or yes?
[09:32] <chazco> e.g. starts with Security updates then other updates
[09:32] <Flannel> chazco: so, hit 'update' or whatever, apply updates, etc.
[09:32] <chazco> thats what i did, it returns to the list
[09:32] <twiztr> Online.
[09:32] <Flannel> nullkuhl: no.  Just means you have to have gnome and KDE libs in memory sometimes
[09:32] <nullkuhl> idefixx: i heard its inefficient cause it makes gnome load kde libraries when running these applications
[09:32] <twiztr> A flash movie, on tv-links.co.uk
[09:32] <twiztr> I figured it out. 'xset -dpms'
[09:33] <twiztr> Well, I'm off. Me and my gf are watching Interbiew with a Vampire.
[09:33] <nullkuhl> ok also some kde application dont work on gnome such as super karamaba any solution to this ?
[09:33] <Flannel> chazco: oh.  Well, close that, start up synaptic, hit 'reload' then 'mark all upgrades' then 'apply' and that'll work.  You might have an old/buggy/whatever version of update-manager
[09:33] <anandanbu> how can i password protect certain folders in ubuntu 7.04
[09:33] <sahil_> Flannel, itr worked, that you VERY VERY VEYR VYER VEYR MUCH!
[09:33] <idefixx> nullkuhl: it does.. if you considre that bad it is bad.. i though you meant if it doesnt work or poses a security risk. it makes gnome load kde libs and consumes way more mem than a nativ gnome app
[09:33] <chazco> Flannel - will try, two mins
[09:33] <chazco> ah... erm, Synaptic wont start...
[09:34] <chazco> no errors, nothing
[09:34] <idefixx> nullkuhl: its like asking is it bad to run a .net app on windows :)
[09:34] <Flannel> chazco: You need to close other package managers (apt-get, aptitude, adept, update-manager, add/remvoe, etc)
[09:34] <nullkuhl> :)
[09:34] <sakrede1> is there a way to put panels back to default in ubuntu?
[09:34] <chazco> they're all closed (aside from the tray icon)
[09:34] <nullkuhl> idefixx: not all kde apps run on gnome , such as super karamba any solution to this ?
[09:34] <Flannel> chazco: try starting it from a gnome-terminal (`gksu synaptic`)
[09:35] <chazco> gksu: error while loading shared libraries: libgtop-2.0.so.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[09:35] <chazco> i get the feeling something broke somehow
[09:35] <idefixx> nullkuhl: not really sry... its the first time i heared that there actualy are apps that dont run... it probably because some libarys are missing.
[09:36] <Flannel> chazco: alright, well, lets do it a method i know will work.  In that same terminal, `sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade`
[09:36] <idefixx> nullkuhl: i usually have kde and gnome installed never ran into an app that didnt work with gnome.
[09:36] <yo2k_> Flannel: how to install squid proxy ?
[09:36] <chazco> hmm... ive got /usr/lib/libgtop-2.0.so.7.0.0 ... should i just rename it?
[09:37] <aric> vsftpd
[09:37] <Flannel> chazco: no.  Thats asking for trouble
[09:37] <Voyage_> IF some day ubuntu stoped the support for repositories and apps. how can i use synaptic then ?
[09:37] <necro> heya noiesmo
[09:38] <anandanbu> can somebody help me to create password to protect certain folders in ubuntu 7.04
[09:38] <idefixx> Voyage_: you cant in that case.. well you could use a dvd.. or migrade to debian.. which at that (theoretical point) would probably be possible.
[09:38] <LucidFox> what is the difference between regular Qt4 and kdecopy packages?
[09:38] <grub_booter> sorry for repost - but does anyone know the command line equivalent of the synaptic 'fix broken packages' menu item?
[09:38] <noiesmo> necro, hey
[09:39] <Flannel> grub_booter: probably --fix-broken
[09:39] <necro> noiesmo: Got TvTime up and running, but no sound.  Any idea why?  I'm pretty sure my mixer settings are correct.
[09:39] <chazco> Flannel - the apt-get method appears to be working... any ideas on fixing the others? i recently installed Synce - it seems to have broken since then, and synce appears to use that libary (it create symlinks to it)
[09:40] <noiesmo> necro, sound work every where else but tvtime
[09:40] <Flannel> chazco: How did you install Synce?
[09:40] <necro> noiesmo: yea, listenin' to mp3's as we speak.
[09:40] <grub_booter> Flannel: in synaptic? or apt-get? apt-cache? dpkg? (sorry - haven't found it - just not sure where too look :-))
[09:40] <yo2k_> how to install squid proxy ?
[09:40] <chazco> following instructions on the ubuntu forums (mainly apt-get and dpkg)
[09:41] <Flannel> grub_booter: apt-get, I'm sure aptitude has something comperable as well
[09:41] <noiesmo> necro cool but i've not used tvtime before will be gtting a capture card shortly gonna make a mythtv box
[09:41] <puff> Anybody good at make or gmake?
[09:41] <ilreds> hi to all
[09:41] <ilreds> anyone has tried vmware server on ubuntu starting from canonical repository?
[09:41] <grub_booter> Flannel: ah - got it - not in the normal help output but in the man page - np - many thanks
[09:41] <necro> noiesmo: Yea, I recently tried mythdora, didn't like it.  Couldn't even tell fedora was under there.  :)
[09:41] <yo2k_> puff: has a problem?
[09:42] <Flannel> chazco: alright.  Well, that shouldn't break anything if you used package management (since thats the point, to not break things), but I don't know for sure.  synCE is in universe and stuff, if you did stuff other than that, I can't say for certain.
[09:42] <puff> yo2k_: Yeah, 	@find {de,com,javax} -iname *.java > javaSourceFiles
[09:42] <puff> yo2k_: That appears to be generating a size 0 file, and then the subsequent command (	(mkdir build;  javac -d build @javaSourceFiles))  fails.
[09:42] <chazco> hmm, ok... is there anyway to find out which version libgtop is (without the filename)... im starting to suspect it may have renamed it or something
[09:42] <yo2k_> puff: you want to compile or ...?
[09:43] <Frogzoo> !anyone | ilreds: what's your question?
[09:43] <ubotu> ilreds: what's your question?: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[09:43] <puff> yo2k_: Yeah.  The java files are there, a shell find ./ -name "*.java" finds them.
[09:43] <nullkuhl> guys wat language is used to make the kde - gnome applications,, ubuntu applications generally is it python or wat ?
[09:43] <puff> But the javac command errors with "javac: no source files"
[09:43] <Frogzoo> nullkuhl: gnome is python
[09:43] <noiesmo> nero, lol I gonna turn me current main system into mythtv with wireless (fingers crossed) gotta get the wireless card also getting a amd am2 4800+ system for new main
[09:43] <yo2k_> puff: so ? that need/find a file *.java
[09:43] <ilreds> i want to try vmware on ubuntu into an enterprise environment
[09:44] <puff> yo2k_: I'm trying to figure out what's wrong with this line in the make file:  	(mkdir build;  javac -d build @javaSourceFiles)
[09:44] <puff> yo2k_: Er, sorry, the next line: 	@find {de,com,javax} -iname *.java > javaSourceFiles
[09:44] <Frogzoo> ilreds: plenty of people do this - either server or player
[09:44] <ilreds> i like have kernel modules into .deb but ubuntu server....? i'm searching opinions
[09:44] <yo2k_> puff: let try...
[09:45] <necro> noiesmo: nice.  Got one more for ya.  (Sorry)  It looks like I got samba up and running, but when I go to log in from the windows side, it asks for a user/password, and none of them work!
[09:45] <burnerx> where is the bot ~~
[09:45] <noiesmo> necro, yeah can fix that for ya
[09:45] <necro> coolio
[09:45] <puff> yo2k_: I don't understand you.
[09:45] <CheshireViking> !bot | burnerx
[09:45] <ubotu> burnerx: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[09:45] <Voyage_> idefixx wont it be possible to insert other repositories than packages.ubuntu.com , in to synaptic to use ?
[09:45] <burnerx> !bot vsftpd
[09:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bot vsftpd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:46] <Flannel> necro: you need to setup samba passwords for users (different/separate from normal login passwords)
[09:46] <yo2k_> puff: that mean waht you compile find/need *.java in the current directory
[09:46] <idefixx> Voyage_: of yourse there are a lot of other mirrors...
[09:46] <necro> ahhh
[09:46] <idefixx> Voyage_: of course*
[09:46] <noiesmo> necro, do you want there to be no password ( no as secure) or have user and pass
[09:46] <Voyage_> idefixx i dont mean ubuntu mirrors. i mean non ubuntu but debian mirrors. that support ubuntu
[09:46] <necro> noiesmo: no passwords
[09:46] <_Ahti> Whats the command for finding out how much free space you have on the root partition???
[09:46] <chazco> well, got to go. Thanks Flannel :)
[09:47] <noiesmo> necro, okledokly first thing is to open up smb.conf file
[09:47] <necro> K
[09:47] <yo2k_> puff: than the information collect in variable @javaSourceFile
[09:47] <noiesmo> necro, use sudo
[09:47] <ilreds> can i install ubuntu server with feisty dvd? i need ubuntu server iso?
[09:47] <puff> yo2k_: Are you saying, the line: "@find {de,com,javax} -iname *.java > javaSourceFiles" means find *.java in the current directory
[09:47] <necro> noiesmo: one step ahead of ya.  Opened and ready.
[09:48] <noiesmo> necro, find the line that reads security = user
[09:48] <noiesmo> necro change that to security = share
[09:48] <yo2k_> puff: yes
[09:48] <Flannel> ilreds: DVD has a CLI install option.  You can install that, then switch the server kernel if you want
[09:48] <Voyage_> idefixx ?
[09:48] <puff> yo2k_: Okay, so it's incorrect then.  What it needs to do is find *.java in subdirectories of directory de, directory com, and directory javax.  How do I fix it to do that?
[09:48] <ilreds> ok
[09:48] <necro> noiesmo: K.  That it?
[09:48] <noiesmo> necro save the file and restart samba "sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart"
[09:48] <idefixx> Voyage_: well at this point there is no such thing and this situation will become reality... if canonial 'stops' ubuntu there will be no new versions the old repos will still exists thats it.
[09:49] <yo2k_> puff: man find
[09:49] <yo2k_> puff: parameter -iname
[09:49] <necro> noiesmo: K, I'll go check.
[09:49] <noiesmo> necro, now your winblows users should get access not 100% if theyll ave write permissions
[09:49] <Voyage_> idefixx but what about repositories
[09:49] <idefixx> Voyage_: damn im to tired.. i meant: this situtation will NEVER become reality...
[09:50] <puff> yo2k_: So it's just invoking the shell command version of find?
[09:50] <idefixx> Voyage_: there are 100th of mirrors that have nothing to do with ubuntu itself they will still exist
[09:50] <yo2k_> puff: yup...
[09:50] <Techtonic> hey just wonderin has any one managed to get ubuntu to run beryl with the ati x1550 graphics card?
[09:51] <noiesmo> necro, you will need to list the shares in smb.conf also and then if you want everyone to write to them do "sudo chmod -R 777 /path/to/sharename"
[09:51] <_Ahti> How do i find out how much space i have on my root partition???
[09:51] <necro> noiesmo: K, emm..it moved from the default MSHome to where it was supposed to, but it's still asking for users and passwords that don't work.
[09:51] <gastly> _Ahti: Just open a terminal and type df -h
[09:51] <yo2k_> _Ahti: man df
[09:52] <_Ahti> thank you
[09:52] <necro> noiesmo: not worried about write permission.
[09:52] <gastly> _Ahti: Anytime man
[09:52] <Voyage_> idefixx K. thanks
[09:52] <noiesmo> necro, ah hang on sorry you need to set some specs in smb.conf for guest on the shared folders
[09:53] <ilreds> for a test environment what do i choose? the host must be only a vmware server host...dapper? edgy? feisty? i want use the canonical repository for vmware
[09:53] <necro> noiesmo: I'm pretty sure everything I wanna share is listed in there correctly.
[09:54] <Voyage_> why doesnt all repos work for all distros? whats the differnce. they are all linux
[09:54] <noiesmo> necro "guest ok = yes" for each share
[09:55] <penos> whats mean ubunta?
[09:55] <markixjess> !xsensors
[09:55] <penos> ???
[09:55] <noiesmo> necro, then restart samba after you edit file each time
[09:56] <gastly> penos: ???
[09:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xsensors - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:56] <CheshireViking> Voyage_, different versions of linux all have different versions of the software, Ubuntu repo's are optimized for the versions of software & libraries installed by Ubuntu
[09:56] <necro> noiesmo: K, trying that.
[09:56] <markixjess> !xchat

See http://kubuntu.org) for more information.
[09:56] <idefixx> Voyage_: first of all linux is the kernel. a distro just uses the linux kernel as a base to run all differnet kind of apps.

[09:57] <Voyage_> CheshireViking no universal apps or libs?
[09:57] <necro> noiesmo: STILL asking for a user/password.
[09:57] <Voyage_> idefixx ok\\\\
[09:57] <gastly> Is anyone running kubuntu here like me? (Just Asking)
[09:57] <thmcmahon> gastly: join #kubuntu
[09:58] <burnerx> how can i login to vsftp without creating the user ?
[09:58] <ishi_> hello, I was wondering if there was a way to AUTOMATICALLY name a file to today's date (for backup purposes)
[09:58] <thmcmahon> burnerx: anonymously
[09:58] <thmcmahon> ishi_: yes there is, you'll need to write a script
[09:58] <gastly> thmcmahon: Is this chanel in the same server as #ubuntu
[09:58] <CheshireViking> Voyage_, just different versions, Ubuntu may use version 1.23 of something, Debian may use 1.21, Slackware could use 1.20, the repo's are designed to work with the specific versions used by Ubuntu
[09:58] <burnerx> thmcmahon, but i want people to login with an account name & passowrd
[09:58] <dread`bday> got a prob on ubuntu installation, it says no devices found, probably means the sata hdd
[09:59] <noiesmo> necro, hmmm paste your smb.conf for me please
[09:59] <thmcmahon> gastly: yep
[09:59] <dread`bday> what can i do
[09:59] <ishi_> thmcmahon: one that checks the date, puts it in a variable and uses that variable?
[09:59] <necro> K
[09:59] <idefixx> Voyage_: take a look at all the different linux distros and how they work and their development phylosphies. if you do that i'll become very clear why there are a lot of distros.
[09:59] <gastly> thmcmahon: Thanks bro!
[09:59] <thmcmahon> ishi_: are you writing a bash script
[09:59] <thmcmahon> gastly: np
[09:59] <Voyage_> CheshireViking version of what. apps ? or kernal??
[09:59] <ishi_> thmcmahon: not yet :)
[10:00] <CheshireViking> Voyage_, libraries - same as there's different versions of software for windows vista and windows xp, they use different versions of supporting software
[10:00] <thmcmahon> ishi_: i'm a bit rusty
[10:00] <thmcmahon> ishi_: but tldp.org has a couple of comprehensive bash guides that will tell you how to do it
[10:01] <burnerx> thmcmahon, how can i tell vsftpd to not use real system users
[10:01] <Voyage_> CheshireViking ah ic. why dont they use universal and latest ones. like windows.
[10:01] <necro> noiesmo: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25485/
[10:01] <ishi_> thmcmahon: probably, thanks for putting meon the way
[10:01] <thmcmahon> burnerx: sorry i'm not sure dude
[10:01] <thmcmahon> ishi_: np
[10:02] <LucidFox> has Qt 4.3 been backported to Feisty?
[10:02] <noiesmo> necro, get rid of the ; if front of   security = share line 91
[10:03] <CheshireViking> Voyage_, thats the point, even Windows doesn't between different versions, some versions of linux use older "tried and trusted" versions for stability, others will use a more recent version that might not be tested as much, if you want to run a server, you want something that's rock solid, but for a desktop its not as necessary
[10:03] <_Ahti> how big should i make my swap partition if i had 1gig of RAM?
[10:03] <Voyage_> CheshireViking agreed. thanks ! :)
[10:04] <noiesmo> necro, the ";" is comment out also restart samba
[10:04] <Phlogi_> Can I use a user specific or even better - browser specifc /etc/hosts?
[10:05] <necro> noiesmo: K, checking....
[10:07] <necro> noiesmo: BINGO.  Thank you VERY much.  I'm in your debt.
[10:07] <Plantain> No Lexmark AIO support under linux?
[10:07] <Plantain> D=
[10:08] <idefixx> Phlogi_: not to my knowledge.. check 'man host.conf' im not sure but there might be an envvar that can do what you want.

[10:10] <luciano> hello! can any1 point me to an easy way to upgrade from the dapper version to the edgy version? is there a command line?
[10:13] <idefixx> luciano: just change alle the stuff in your sources.list from dapper to edgy run 'sudo apt-get update' after that 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade'.. i also want to remove (comment) all you third party sources.
[10:13] <penos> whats mean xubuntu?
[10:13] <idefixx> luciano: im not sure that is the offical ubuntu way for the command line.. but it'll work.

[10:35] <Huffameg> why does my VLC media player just shut down when I open a DVD?
[10:35] <MysteriAlaska> Why can't i connect to my router even though i can see it with Wifi radar? It just won't use my wireless connection...
[10:35] <codyzapp> why not use mplayer?
[10:37] <noiesmo> !dvd | Huffameg
[10:37] <ubotu> Huffameg: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[10:37] <Huffameg> codyzapp: i'll try, but vlc worked pefectly before..
[10:37] <Huffameg> codyzapp: it has become like this just now..
[10:37] <codyzapp> Huffameg, ah

[10:38] <codyzapp> did you try recompiling it? did you compile from source or one of the package thingys
[10:38] <Genefreak> can anybody help with my problem?
[10:38] <Huffameg> codyzapp: recompiling it? like.. reinstall?
[10:38] <codyzapp> yes
[10:39] <Huffameg> codyzapp: i'll try..

[10:41] <Huffameg> .tar.gz, i think.. at least the only one that sounds familiar..
[10:41] <yo2k_> codyzapp: tar.gz -> sudo tar -xvzf xxx.tar.gz --> make -- make install
[10:41] <_Ahti> cozyapp: They aren't executables, but yes... You install from .deb files
[10:42] <_Ahti> cozyapp: I might've misunderstood the question...
[10:42] <codyzapp> yo2k_, this is his first time on linux lol he has no idea what anything means
[10:42] <codyzapp> _Ahti, your tab is incorrect lol
[10:42] <codyzapp> im cody not cozy :P
[10:43] <puff> Hm, now this make file is looking for g++.
[10:43] <puff> I have gcc but no g++ shows up.  Hm.
[10:43] <_Ahti> codyzapp: Nevermind... i misunderstood... i didn't read your previous messages
[10:43] <codyzapp> ah np
[10:44] <yo2k_> codyzapp: so what you want ? sorry if i'm wrong...
[10:44] <ferronica> is there any RSS/FEED reader for ubuntu 7.04 ?
[10:44] <joycetick> is it possible to re-size a ubuntu partition? (ext3), the option is disabled in gparted
[10:44] <necro> ferronica: doesn't firefox have rss built in?
[10:44] <magnetron> ferronica: yes. i can recommend Liferea, you can install it with "add/remove applications"
[10:45] <codyzapp> yo2k_, nothing, they answered my question about add removing stuff
[10:45] <Huffameg> yo2k_: i think i'm the one want a something..
[10:45] <magnetron> joycetick: you need to unmount it before you can change the size
[10:45] <rinky3> my /etc/rc2 has a S13gdm link, anyone know why it isn't loaded last after all the other daemons? (i.e. S99gdm ?)
[10:45] <ferronica> magnetron: okay
[10:45] <yo2k_> Huffameg: like what ?
[10:46] <joycetick> magnetron: ah thanks
[10:46] <Huffameg> yo2k_: my media player shuts down when i try to open a dvd.. it worked fine just a couple of weeks ago and i haven't done anything... i think..
[10:46] <Huffameg> codyzapp: it doesn't help recompiling it..
[10:47] <codyzapp> bummer. does it show any arguments when you run it via a console?
[10:47] <yo2k_> Huffameg: type dmesg , you can see what happen
[10:47] <Huffameg> codyzapp: i don't know.. i have tried to avoid terminal so i don't know how to use it..
[10:47] <Huffameg> yo2k_: in terminal?
[10:47] <yo2k_> Huffameg: on console
[10:48] <yo2k_> Huffameg: yes
[10:48] <codyzapp> o_0 you dont know how to use a terminal?
[10:48] <Huffameg> codyzapp: i'm really new at this.. :S
[10:48] <bdgraue> do i have to ask a second time? or wait any longer?

[10:50] <yo2k_> Huffameg: try to play again, if broken, maybe 4-5 last line or you find something error about a player...
[10:50] <codyzapp> question, is beryl in ubuntu's add/remove section?
[10:51] <magnetron> bdgraue: sometimes it is easier to answer the question, if you try to describe the problem more in detail. ask again.
[10:52] <Huffameg> still the same thing...[  120.400000]  ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): eth1: link becomes ready

[10:53] <Huffameg> yo2k_: okay.. how do i get there? *embarassed*
[10:53] <bdgraue> magnetron: , i installed universe typo3, but i cant start it, locahlhost/~bdgraue/typo3  give men an You don't have permission to access /~bdgraue/typo3 on this server.  what do i have to do? what informations needed to answer my question? i have no idea, sry, and i think my english isn't very well...
[10:53] <Huffameg> Supaplex: sorry.. in norwegian - this isn't such a bad word so it's not easy being conscious about it..
[10:54] <Supaplex> just fyi mate. =)
[10:54] <codyzapp> anyone here use beryl with ubuntu?
[10:54] <yo2k_> Huffameg: /var/log is directory to place if an application broken/failed/ etc...
[10:54] <crdlb> codyzapp, if you have a question, just ask :)
[10:55] <Huffameg> yo2k_: yes, so i figured.. but how do i move around in terminal?
[10:55] <crdlb> although #ubuntu-effects might be better
[10:55] <Supaplex> codyzapp: <sarcasm> oh never. what gave you that idea? </sarcasm>
[10:55] <magnetron> bdgraue: you should ask the channel, i have no idea what typo3 is. information needed is how you installed it
[10:55] <|_ocke>   /home/bed/kitties
[10:55] <yo2k_> Huffameg: at terminal, type cd /var/log
[10:55] <codyzapp> how do you install beryl on ubuntu ;)
[10:55] <codyzapp> *crys*
[10:56] <|_ocke> codyzapp, check ubuntuforums.org
[10:56] <codyzapp> okay thanks.
[10:56] <Huffameg> yo2k_: okay.. then what..?
[10:56] <crdlb> codyzapp, join #ubuntu-effects
[10:56] <yo2k_> Huffameg: ls -l
[10:56] <Huffameg> yo2k_: sorry you have to walk me thorugh this.. ;)
[10:56] <bdgraue> magnetron: i asked the channel 20min ago the same question, typo3 is an web-cms and i installed it via apt-get from the universe-repository
[10:56] <|_ocke> you really need anvidia card too

[10:56] <igxmyzt> Hey, i upgraded from a radeon 9250 to a x1550. what will i have to do when i boot back onto linux?
[10:56] <Farhod> Can some one help me on LAN and WAN monitooring systems?
[10:57] <codyzapp> kk thankyou
[10:57] <Huffameg> yo2k_: and i'm looking for what?
[10:57] <yo2k_> Huffameg: you mean?.. find a last file modified
[10:57] <|_ocke> igxmyzt, install fglrx, but you really should have upgraded to a nvidia card if you were intending to run linux
[10:57] <magnetron> bdgraue: you need to give a lot of info to make it easy to help. maybe no one present knows the answer?
[10:58] <yo2k_> Huffameg: or type tail message
[10:58] <bdgraue> magnetron: maybe
[10:59] <kraypius> does anyone here use usenet?
[11:00] <|_ocke> i used to constantly when i had a news server on my isp
[11:00] <Huffameg> yo2k_: that might be several *.log-files or something called wtmp.. tail message doesn't work..
[11:01] <|_ocke> my current isp hjas none
[11:01] <|_ocke> but usenet is the absolute best way to get any s ort of binaries, executables, music, videos, windows warez, etc
[11:01] <kraypius> where do i find all the good servers?
[11:01] <yo2k_> Huffameg: found a file message ? i use 7.04
[11:02] <yo2k_> Huffameg: found a file messages ? i use 7.04, sorry...
[11:02] <yo2k_> Huffameg: tail messages

[11:03] <ubotu> kraypius: piracy discussion and other questionably legal practices are not welcome in the Ubuntu channels. Please take this discussion elsewhere or abstain from it altogether. This includes linking to pirated software, music and video. Also see !guidelines and !o4o
[11:03] <joycetick> i have 4gb of unallocated space before my ubuntu partition, how would i add that space onto my ubuntu partition? i tried gparted from the live cd but it doesent let me resize to the left
[11:04] <kraypius> cheshireviking, its usenet.. as in newsgroups so leave me alone with all that nonsense
[11:04] <kraypius> i never asked for pirated anything
[11:04] <tyoc> hey people, I have finded gtk-recordmydesktop, but I should ask, is there a similar app that do swf???
[11:04] <Supaplex> stupid $explictive non-free so called os 'recovery console' and ... *sigh*
[11:05] <tyoc> it outputs to ogg, but the size of a 33 sec file is about 12Mb
[11:05] <CheshireViking> kraypius, sorry about that, i should have directed that message at |_ocke, i saw your question & their reply referring to it
[11:05] <kraypius> =D
[11:05] <|_ocke> CheshireViking, i have no intention of endorsing piracy
[11:06] <Supaplex> YAR!
[11:06] <|_ocke> but usenet is where all the latest and working binaries are released
[11:06] <Huffameg> yo2k_: i can't see anything that strikes me as connected - but then again.. i hardly know what i'm looking at.
[11:06] <|_ocke> just referencing usenet doesnt imply piracy in any way
[11:06] <drui2> Why there's no any words in Fluxbuntu channel?
[11:07] <kraypius> neither does implying you can download music/whatever from it
[11:07] <|_ocke> all the latest legal binaries are posted on usenet just as effectively as illegal ones
[11:07] <thmcmaho1> |_ocke: binaries for what
[11:07] <|_ocke> and i made no reference to any groups which include illegal binaries
[11:07] <Supaplex> jpegs of his grandma!
[11:07] <batfree> I can not boot the livecd, anyone got an idea?
[11:08] <|_ocke> thmcmaho1, for everything.. usenet is where all binaries are released before they are posted on the web with trojans included
[11:08] <thmcmaho1> batfree: what happens
[11:08] <thmcmaho1> |_ocke: surely all binaries are illegal though, give me an example of a legal binary  from usenet
[11:08] <batfree> When I boot from the livecd, I show me the busybox and suspend.
[11:08] <yo2k_> Huffameg: actually, linux have a message log, but in my 7.04, if anything problem, i find an error message, but i don't where your an appl to place the error message
[11:08] <kraypius> thmcmaho1, i was just connected to a usenet group that had a bunch of linux binaries
[11:08] <|_ocke> thmcmaho1, erm, every single binary in alt.binaries.demos
[11:09] <yo2k_> Huffameg: so i'm sorry can't help you...
[11:09] <|_ocke> if thats even a group
[11:09] <christinec> I can't apt-get install nvidia-glx-new driver on feisty-amd, the package looks corrupted, what can I do ?
[11:09] <|_ocke> im referring to demos as in the demoscene, not game demos btw
[11:09] <drui2> Anybody can here tell me the status of Fluxbuntu, is there any updated roadmap?
[11:10] <thmcmaho1> kraypius: why wouldnt you just get them from your distro?
[11:10] <yo2k_> christinec: apt-get --fix-broken
[11:10] <thmcmaho1> |_ocke: so you download a lot of demos do you?
[11:10] <kraypius> thmcmaho1, cause im a pirate. you caught me
[11:10] <Huffameg> yo2k_: the player kind of acts like before i installed the libdvdcss2, but i don't know
[11:10] <thmcmaho1> kraypius: lol i don't care
[11:10] <Huffameg> yo2k_: okay, thanks anyway..
[11:10] <Supaplex> RIAA can't touch this doodododooo can't touch my Linux doododoodoodoodododoot Can't touch my GNU doodododootdootdoodoo
[11:10] <|_ocke> thmcmaho1, no, i dont have usenet anymore since like 3 years ago
[11:11] <yo2k_> Huffameg: ok... really sorry...
[11:11] <|_ocke> and i cant really pirate any games because i cant play games anymore :(
[11:11] <|_ocke> i lost the use of my right hand like 2 1/2 months ago

[11:11] <igxmyzt> gah. So about upgrading from a radeon 9250 to x1550?
[11:11] <kraypius> is there a site that archives the largest list of usenet servers free for view?
[11:12] <thmcmaho1> |_ocke: damn howd u do that

[11:20] <Yogi--> sharkbrainguy but lsmod shows you current loaded modules into cernel
[11:20] <ndlovu> hi all. downloading stuff from sourceforge (any of the mirrors) seems frustratingly slow over the last day or so, anyone else notice that or is the problem local?
[11:21] <Yogi--> sharkbrainguy modprobe -l tells you is there such module in your system, but not loaded into cernel
[11:21] <sharkbrainguy> ah
[11:21] <Yogi--> sharkbrainguy sorry my english :((
[11:22] <sharkbrainguy> Yogi--: I didn't even notcie
[11:22] <sharkbrainguy> until you said "sorry my english"
[11:22] <yo2k_> Yogi: like me...
[11:22] <Yogi--> sharkbrainguy lol thanks
[11:23] <Jimmy89> how do i see my wireless network cards IP address by command line?
[11:23] <sharkbrainguy> http://alpha.dyndns.org/ov511/download.html#ov51x <-- this is telling me to remove the ov511 driver module
[11:23] <Yogi--> Jimmy89 iwconfig   or ifconfig
[11:23] <erUSUL> Jimmy89: ifconfig <iface>
[11:23] <sharkbrainguy> so i did modprobe -r ov511
[11:24] <sharkbrainguy> do i need to actually delete the file or what?
[11:24] <Yogi--> sharkbrainguy so now type lsmod | grep ov511
[11:24] <ideogram> has anyone set up linux/Xfree86 with three monitors?
[11:24] <sharkbrainguy> it returns nothing :)
[11:24] <Jimmy89> i cant see my interface there.. :(
[11:25] <sharkbrainguy> that's good right
[11:25] <Yogi--> sharkbrainguy don't delete a file if you don't want to load in system up just backlist it
[11:25] <sharkbrainguy> ?
[11:25] <HereBeDragon> Hi folks, I want to stop the samba service on my Ubuntu Dapper machine. How can I do it?
[11:25] <sharkbrainguy> backlist?
[11:25] <Frogzoo> HereBeDragon: sudo /etc/init.d/samba stop
 it returns nothing :)   --- means module not loaded into kernel this time
[11:25] <sharkbrainguy> cool, so I don't need to do anything else?
[11:26] <Yogi--> sharkbrainguy i think so
[11:26] <HereBeDragon> Frogzoo: I want to stop it for ever, and not have it start up the next time the machine boots.
[11:26] <Jimmy89> interesting..
[11:26] <sharkbrainguy> only one way to find out :)
[11:27] <Frogzoo> HereBeDragon: sudo update-rc.d samba remove
[11:27] <HereBeDragon> eww
[11:27] <HereBeDragon> can't I disable it instead of removing it?
[11:27] <normi> ich versteh doch ganr nichts

[11:32] <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?
[11:32] <erUSUL> !repeat | dubno
[11:32] <ubotu> dubno: 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
[11:33] <radhy_nherox> u
[11:34] <rpersky> umm
[11:34] <rpersky> i have no idea about the volume
[11:35] <rpersky> dubno do you mean in the application as in volume control applet
[11:36] <joel_> !patience
[11:36] <ubotu> The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[11:36] <dubno> rpersky: it was working fine. Yes the gnome volume applet works. If i move my volume button, the slider does move (also gnome alsa mixer moves)
[11:36] <rpersky> dubno or do you mean when you are on gnome desktop that when you press the volume button it does not change
[11:36] <dubno> sorry was working and then i changed motherboards.  now i can only adjust volume using the control in an app (eg sound juicer)
[11:37] <dubno> rpersky - yes,, that is right ONLY within an app can you contrl coume
[11:37] <rpersky> dubno ok, this probably means that alsa does not like this motherboard as much as your last
[11:37] <DTrinder> hi all, got a very old laptop that im trying to install xubuntu but it does not have a cd, it has win98 se installed already, so i can get the iso on the hard disk. anyone know how to install from hdd
[11:37] <rpersky> dubno however, i can't understand why it would work in an application
[11:38] <rpersky> DTrinder not possable, as far as i know, you need to format the HDD in setup.... this means deleting the iso files
[11:38] <rpersky> dubno can you try a different sound system? did it work
[11:38] <dubno> rpersky: sure it is a strange one - i purged alsa and reinstalled but no difference.  seems like some mapping between alsa and the apps is broken
[11:39] <DTrinder> rpersky: thanks used to be able to install from tftp or floppy can u not do that now ?
[11:39] <bruta> hello, when I push supend button on my laptop I get the message "Your computer failed to suspend. Check the help file for common problems". Where can I find this file? where can I find more documentation? thanks
[11:40] <rpersky> DTrinder well i used this yeasterday, but netinstall for debian (the granddaddy of ubuntu) is 32mb
[11:40] <rpersky> bruta what brand is your laptop?
[11:40] <jonathan_> .msg jonathan hi
[11:40] <dubno> rpersky:  how would i try another sound system? in gnome volume app - preferences. i have tried Intel ICH4 (alsa) and also the OSS mixer as listed but no difference either
[11:40] <bruta> rpersky quit extrange: uniwill...
[11:41] <DTrinder> rpersky: hmm bit bigger than a floppy, im getting a parallel zip drive, will that work
[11:41] <rpersky> dubno hmm, well at the moment i am not on my ubuntu box - i have to ask a question about my setup first
[11:41] <jonathan_> somebody can help me to compiling .tar.gz?
[11:41] <rpersky> dubno but i have used it before
[11:41] <rpersky> dubno (ubuntu before) alot
[11:42] <yo2k_> jonathan_:sudo tar -xvzf xxx.tar.gz
[11:42] <jonathan_> than?
[11:42] <Yogi--> jonathan_ tar xvzf file.tar.gz  then cd file   then ./configure && make  then sudo make install
[11:42] <DTrinder> rpersky: thanks, can you start the install from cd without booting
[11:42] <rpersky> dubno just check for xstreamer in documentation.... i think that is one, or just search linux sound system
[11:42] <marfeath> How do I tell grub to not probe for floppy drives?
[11:42] <yo2k_> jonathan_: cd xxx
[11:42] <HereBeDragon> Guys, Any Alfresco user here??
[11:42] <HereBeDragon> The 'Open network folder
[11:43] <rpersky> DTrinder no, sorry
[11:43] <HereBeDragon> The 'Open network folder' feature of Alfresco seems to fail if the Alfresco server is running on a Ubuntu machine
[11:43] <rpersky> DTrinder if you can't have a cd drive, nowdays, lots are impossable
[11:43] <dubno> rpersky: ok thanks . yes it was working like a charm before i swapped m/b and I did nothing to re-config sound. it "just  worked" except for the slight issue i have now. i'll look at xstreamer etc...cheers!
[11:43] <jonathan_>  tar xvzf file.tar.g
[11:43] <jonathan_> jonathan@jonathan-linux:~$ ./configure
[11:43] <jonathan_> bash: ./configure: No such file or directory
[11:43] <yo2k_> jonathan_: sudo make
[11:43] <jonathan_> what's that mean?
[11:43] <rpersky> DTrinder there probably is a workaround where you download linux core, add netword
[11:44] <rpersky> DTrinder and then start installing a custom os
[11:44] <CheshireViking> !install | DTrinder
[11:44] <ubotu> DTrinder: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

[11:44] <yo2k_> jonathan_: sudo make
[11:44] <yo2k_> jonathan_: sudo make install
[11:44] <DTrinder> rpersky: thank will take a look
[11:44] <rpersky> DTrinder but honestly, i would preferr shoot myself before doing that.... OPTION 2: get a mate with a laptop who has a cd drive to install ubuntu
[11:44] <Yogi--> jonathan_ well if your file is called opala.tar.gz     tar -zxvf opala.tar.gz     next step is cd opala   and then ./configure
[11:45] <yo2k_> jonathan_: read the readme or something like that to compile...
[11:45] <HowardTheCoward> Yogi--: does ubuntu use the default /usr/local prefix?
[11:45] <jonathan_> ok
[11:45] <jonathan_> installing vmware tools
[11:46] <SoftIce> hi is there a re-build for ubuntu, where it will re-build your entire OS?  like putting a server disk in and having an option to re-install, but not to re-format the drive and lose files, etc?
[11:46] <Yogi--> HowardTheCoward /usr/local is by default but you might prefix it by ./configure --prefix=somewhere
[11:46] <luca____> hello:)
[11:46] <Paddy_EIRE> SoftIce, now that would be handy
[11:46] <HowardTheCoward> Yogi--: that's why i was asking, you didn't mention that
[11:47] <SoftIce> Paddy_EIRE: so you can't just stick a server disk in and say install? and it just overwrites all the system files, etc?
[11:47] <Yogi--> HowardTheCoward becouse of my english ... sorry about that
[11:47] <rpersky> ~~ ok peoples my question :P ~~ Is there any known problems with running ubuntu server with AMD 64 but?
[11:47] <SoftIce> rpedro 'but' ?
[11:47] <SoftIce> err rpersky ?
[11:48] <rpersky> SoftIce 64 bit :d
[11:48] <simon_> hello. I've got a problem. When i try to chnage startup programs in sessions it just wont change... when i close and open it agian its back to the same
[11:48] <jonathan_> what is ./configure for???
[11:48] <magnetron> rpersky: no, not any problems specific to amd64
[11:48] <simon_> why is this?
[11:48] <rpersky> magnetron yay!
[11:48] <rpersky> SoftIce question answered :)
[11:49] <simon_> i could even delete all my startup programs, and it will be back to the same when i open the sessions dialog again
[11:49] <Huffameg> can someone help me with my dvdplayer? none of the players work although i have installed the codec..
[11:49] <SoftIce> rpersky well your question didn't make sense, you ended it with a but..
[11:49] <erUSUL> !dvd | Huffameg
[11:49] <ubotu> Huffameg: 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
[11:49] <rpersky> Huffameg have you installed CSS decription?
[11:49] <erUSUL> Huffameg: do you have libdvdcss2 ??
[11:49] <Huffameg> rpersky: wha do you mean?
[11:49] <rootpt> how do i format a ntfs partion in ubuntu ?
[11:49] <Huffameg> erUSUL: yes
[11:49] <rpersky> SoftIce is there any problems with using a AMD 64 bit processor with ubuntu server linux
[11:49] <GeNex> Does anyone know how to get frostwire to connect
[11:50] <frolle> When i am using Beryl i am getting white windows. Any ideas?
[11:50] <magnetron> is there any Ubuntu derivates that use a BSD kernel?
[11:50] <rpersky> Huffameg well dvd's are encrypted
[11:50] <GeNex> i keep getting the message frostwire still connecting to network
[11:50] <SoftIce> rpersky: well no standard issues, i know there was issues with java, etc. and for those of you who are scared for building from source, etc.. but other than that nothing that i have come acorss
[11:50] <magnetron> GeNex: do you use a firewall?
[11:50] <rpersky> magnetron Ubuntu is built from Debian
[11:50] <Huffameg> erUSUL: it has worked before, but not now and i am quite the noob so i don't understand it..
[11:50] <GeNex> not right now
[11:50] <magnetron> rpersky: i know that
[11:50] <igxmyzt> quick question before i log on to ubuntu. What's the key shortcut to restart xorg?
[11:51] <rpersky> magnetron so why would it derive from Debian :S
[11:51] <|_ocke> k bed
[11:51] <Huffameg> rpersky: yes, i do have the libdvdcss2 if that is what you're asking..
[11:51] <|_ocke> gnight
[11:51] <GeNex> ctrl alt backspace igxmyzt
[11:51] <Yogi--> jonathan_ The `configure' shell script attempts to guess correct values for
[11:51] <Yogi--> various system-dependent variables used during compilation.  It uses
[11:51] <Yogi--> those values to create a `Makefile' in each directory of the package.
[11:51] <Yogi--> It may also create one or more `.h' files containing system-dependent
[11:51] <Yogi--> definitions.  Finally, it creates a shell script `config.status' that
[11:51] <Yogi--> you can run in the future to recreate the current configuration, and a

[11:51] <rpersky> Huffameg that's the one
[11:51] <Yogi--> shit
[11:51] <Yogi--> SORRY :((
[11:51] <magnetron> rpersky: <magnetron> is there any Ubuntu derivates that use a BSD kernel?
[11:51] <jonathan_> oh..
[11:51] <rpersky> Huffameg well if u have libdvdcss2 then i can't help
[11:51] <varka> magnetron: it wouldnt be ubuntu any longer if it had a BSD kernel i think
[11:52] <jonathan_> I'm confused
[11:52] <magnetron> varka: i asked about a derivate
[11:52] <jonathan_> :(
[11:52] <GeNex> magnetron,  do you know of any bugs with frostwire that makes it unable to connect?
[11:52] <varka> magnetron: same answer
[11:52] <Yogi--> jonathan_ look... jusr read the file called INSTALL in your app folder
[11:52] <defrysk> Ubsduntu
[11:52] <GeNex> is there a way i can connect frostwire manually?
[11:52] <Yogi--> jusr = just
[11:52] <preaction> magnetron: there exists Debian GNU/FreeBSD
[11:52] <magnetron> preaction: thanks
[11:52] <SoftIce> magnetron: yes there is
[11:53] <Huffameg> erUSUL: i tried KMPlayer and i got an error message i don't quite understand..
[11:53] <magnetron> varka: as an example, Nexenta OS is a Ubuntu derivate, based on the OpenSolaris kernel

[11:53] <GeNex> has anyone else had problems with frostwire not connecting to the network?
[11:53] <magnetron> SoftIce: do you remember it's name?
[11:53] <tonsofpcs> frostwire?
[11:54] <varka> magnetron: perhaps your definition of "derivate" differs from mine

[12:03] <lkthomas> simon_, you do ?
[12:03] <simon_> yes
[12:03] <simon_> but i've done this before
[12:04] <lkthomas> simon_, the situation is this
[12:04] <lkthomas> simon_, I got one AGP ATI radeon with dual head with an old PCI VGA card
[12:04] <lkthomas> simon_, the old VGA card is ATI Mach64
[12:04] <Jimmy89> whats the difference between Alternative and normal in terms of the imageS?
[12:04] <lkthomas> simon_, the AGP ATI dual output seems to be fine
[12:05] <lkthomas> simon_, but the mach64 don't have any output at all
[12:05] <defrysk> Jimmy89, alternative is not a live cd
[12:05] <lkthomas> simon_, even on console
[12:05] <defrysk> its an install cd
[12:05] <simon_> don't understand what this has to do with startup programs...?
[12:05] <lkthomas> simon_, huh
[12:05] <funkySt> If i am to have a windows partition on my hdd whilst having ubuntu, then how is it best to set it up ? First to install windows ? How should the partitioning be ?
[12:06] <lkthomas> simon_, I want to have 3 monitor connect to one box
[12:06] <rootpt> how do i use gparted ?

[12:07] <defrysk> simon uncheck automatically remember blahblah
[12:07] <simon_> defrysk: it doesn't help. thats not the problem
[12:07] <noiesmo> funkySt, for partitioning you can let m$ set up its xGB and then when finish boot ubuintu cd and install ubuntu on free space
[12:07] <defrysk> simon_, whats the problem then ?
[12:07] <simon_> defrysk: i'm quite experienced with ubuntu, so i've allready done this. the problem is that checked or unchecked, i cannot edit my startup programs.
[12:07] <simon_> every time i edit them, close the dialog and logout or reopen it, they are the same as before
[12:08] <funkySt> thx..what about swap, and usr partitions ?
[12:08] <funkySt> i can just make that as i go along ?
[12:08] <simon_> feels like i don't have the rights to change them...
[12:08] <simon_> but i am admin
[12:08] <noiesmo> funkySt, swap around 5oomb or so some say twice ram but these days thats a bit overboard
[12:08] <defrysk> simon_, system > administration > services , it that what you mean ?

[12:22] <SoftIce> how do you re-build every package on your ubuntu system with the default settings of each
[12:22] <CheshireViking> defrysk, looks like PriceChild was an auto disconnect & reconnect
[12:22] <SoftIce> like it would select from the installation media, eg cd..
[12:22] <tondar> hey all
[12:22] <defrysk> Huffameg, do you use automatix or something like that ?
[12:22] <tondar> how do I setup a vpn in ubuntu?
[12:22] <VoX> else-: not sure, give me a min
[12:22] <Huffameg> defrysk: VLC, Xine, MPlayer, KMPlayer
[12:23] <leagris> Huffameg, do you use pktcdvd?
[12:23] <CyberMad> well.. i create first username (when installing ubuntu) is User, so i can login with user and password: 123, i don't want that user account have access to add / remove programs, change network configuration.. but you said when i want to configure add/remove program i just need to enter user password which is 123, how to make it just allow for root?
[12:23] <Huffameg> leagris: no, what is that.
[12:23] <defrysk> Huffameg, I have no Idea why it does not work, it could however be a hardware issue
[12:23] <confusednoob> is there any good fast zero write utilities out there that anyone knows of?
[12:24] <leagris> Huffameg, packet writing driver for using RW media as normal disks. There is a bug when using that driver and it sometimes prevent properly reading DVD beyound a given size
[12:24] <Huffameg> defrysk: hmm.. how do I find out? i don't understand why it all of sudden stopped working. i quite the noob, so i don't know how to proceed..
[12:24] <defrysk> Huffameg, listen to leagris
[12:25] <Huffameg> leagris: okay.. i'll check..

[12:25] <tondar> Frogzoo: ok
[12:25] <PriceChild> SoftIce, *sigh*? what do you want to do really?
[12:25] <defrysk> SoftIce, every package ?
[12:25] <emman> cool
[12:25] <Frogzoo> SoftIce: that's scriptable in fact, but why would you ever want to?
[12:25] <emman> im new here
[12:25] <emman> and I have problem
[12:25] <leagris> Huffameg, dmesg | grep pktcdvd
[12:25] <SoftIce> Frogzoo: well i want to overwrite very package
[12:26] <SoftIce> cleanly
[12:26] <SoftIce> things are missing and screwed up

[12:26] <ubotu> emman: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:26] <magnetron> !enter emman
[12:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about enter emman - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:26] <PriceChild> SoftIce, ok well you don't have to reinstall packages to restore settings
[12:26] <magnetron> !enter | emman
[12:26] <ubotu> emman: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[12:26] <tondar> Frogzoo: this is for gaming
[12:26] <Frogzoo> SoftIce: just reinstall
[12:26] <Huffameg> leagris: i don't get anything typing it in terminal..
[12:26] <defrysk> SoftIce, sudo apt-get install --reinstall <package>
[12:26] <SoftIce> definate: yes but I want to do *
[12:26] <agn0stic> magnetron: what?
[12:26] <leagris> Huffameg, ok, not using it
[12:26] <SoftIce> definate: this is issues from device-mapper to dm-liener, etc
[12:26] <magnetron> agn0stic: waht?
[12:27] <SoftIce> udev issues, and more
[12:27] <SoftIce> and its all due to an upgrade
[12:27] <Huffameg> leagris: you have any idea how to find out what is wrong?
[12:27] <SoftIce> so i'd like to re-build the base, and everything else
[12:27] <emman> I have problem with file sharing security in edubuntu.. im using WEBMIN and Samba.. can anyone help me?
[12:27] <leagris> Huffameg, what don't work could extend to in your case though?
[12:27] <magnetron> emman: what do you want to do?
[12:28] <emman> I did the restriction of folders by user but it doesn't work
[12:28] <SoftIce> PriceChild: I dont want to mess around fixing each package, i'd like to build feisty ontop of feisty, but i i do that, during the installation its asking questions, adn you can answer the questions in a ubuntu setup
[12:28] <magnetron> emman: doesn't work?
[12:28] <SoftIce> so it wont go any further
[12:28] <emman> like I can't open the folder
[12:29] <emman> even if I log in to the correct account
[12:29] <PriceChild> SoftIce, I don't think you need to. How did you "break" your system?
[12:29] <SoftIce> PriceChild: please can you just answer my question
[12:29] <Huffameg> leagris: i don't know.. it just stopped working.. it is behaving in the same way as before i installed the libdvdcss2, but i even reinstalled it to make sure it was in place.
[12:29] <SoftIce> i know what i want to do. i just would like a guideline of doing it
[12:29] <PriceChild> SoftIce, No. I want to solve your problem. I don't want to tell you what you think the solution is.
[12:29] <martin_> morning.... I've got a silly quick question that I should know the answer to, but I dont ;P - how do I put things back in the taskbar if I removed them (ie - skype logo, the network icon etc)
[12:30] <magnetron> emman: from the install default, you have to add the accounts in samba too.
[12:30] <SoftIce> PriceChild: I don want to spend ages describinng the build up of events
[12:30] <emman> I did
[12:30] <SoftIce> can you answer my question, how do I build fesity onto of fesity or re-install every package
[12:30] <emman> I mean samba and webmin is working well
[12:30] <SoftIce> dpkg-reconfigure -f *
[12:30] <SoftIce> that isn't what i want...
[12:30] <magnetron> emman: did you make a Samba password for each account
[12:30] <PriceChild> SoftIce, well if you can't tell me exactly what is wrong, or how you broke it then no-one here can help you.
[12:30] <leagris> Huffameg, what player do you use? Did you try vlc or mplayer?
[12:30] <PriceChild> SoftIce, either way what you are asking probably won't help
[12:31] <emman> I modify the pw every time I convert account
[12:31] <SoftIce> aggg never mind. pointless asking for a question as everything things they know better
[12:31] <Huffameg> leagris: yes both. VLC just shuts down and MPlayer gives me an error message..
[12:31] <SoftIce> i ask for something not to get told something else
[12:31] <martin_> Oh, I'm using gnome incidentally - I just want my notification cons back
[12:31] <araczykowska> hi
[12:31] <emman> coz I understand the encryption issue
[12:31] <magnetron> emman: plz paste your smb.conf to a pastebin
[12:31] <VoX> else-: ok, i have a work around for you
[12:31] <leagris> !pastebin | Huffameg
[12:31] <ubotu> Huffameg: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[12:31] <wj32> hi... why does compositing (e.g. true transparency terminal windows) still work through ssh X tunnelling? for example, I open a gnome-terminal remotely using X tunnelling, and I set it to be transparent. I've got beryl running. transparency STILL WORKS.
[12:32] <CyberMad> i tried to configure the IP address, but why i can not ping other computer.. it said network is unreachable.. UTP Cable is fine, if i plug that cable to my laptop.. i can ping to others
[12:32] <emman> hmmnn.. that I don't know how to do
[12:32] <VoX> else-: "sudo cp /usr/share/source-highlight/php.lang /usr/share/source-highlight/php3.lang"  should fix it
[12:32] <emman> heheh
[12:32] <CyberMad> i already set the IP
[12:32] <leagris> Huffameg, pasting all the error message after launching vlc from command line could help
[12:32] <Huffameg> leagris: how do i launch vlc from terminal?
[12:32] <leagris> Huffameg, type vlc
[12:33] <PriceChild> SoftIce, you want our advice to fix your problem... and my advice is that what youw ant to do won't help as it will keep all your configuration files.
[12:33] <magnetron> emman: put the text from /etc/samba/smb.conf into the box at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org, and give us the URL
[12:33] <SoftIce> no i dont want your advice to fix the problem
[12:33] <SoftIce> i just want an answer to my question
[12:33] <emman> ok
[12:33] <magnetron> !patience | SoftIce
[12:33] <ubotu> SoftIce: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[12:33] <SoftIce> PriceChild; i could go and remove every custom option out of lvm, evms, devfs, etc etc as I know where my problem is
[12:34] <martin_> PriceChild - some people won't be told - just answer his question and let him learn the hard way
[12:34] <Huffameg> leagris: okay. now i have the error message here as well.. do want to see it, or...?
[12:34] <PriceChild> SoftIce, well why don't you tell us what the problem is if you want advice?
[12:34] <SoftIce> martin_ i've used unix for over 12 years
[12:34] <PriceChild> martin_, I'm not trying to "tell" as such...
[12:34] <igxmyzt> I'm having problems with my new drivers/xorg for my radeon x1550 with ubuntu. On startup its a black screen, and I don't even think I know the right BUS setting. What should I do?
[12:34] <leagris> Huffameg, use pastebin for the error message. Dont paste in the channel
[12:34] <SoftIce> PriceChild: because its a long winded issue
[12:34] <PriceChild> SoftIce, that means nothing.
[12:34] <SoftIce> i just want help on 'debian' specific package tools
[12:34] <SoftIce> how to re-build an entire base system, like i woul with fbsd doing a re-build world
[12:35] <SoftIce> or like on gentoo doing an complete build world
[12:35] <emman> done
[12:35] <emman> cool
[12:35] <PriceChild> SoftIce, I'm not going to waste my time telling you something which I am quite sure won't help...
[12:35] <PriceChild> even if I knew how
[12:35] <Huffameg> leagris: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25517/
[12:35] <Stevethepirate> Hi.. ppl ..c ansomeone give me the apt source list format?
[12:35] <SoftIce> PriceChild: in your opinion yes
[12:35] <SoftIce> PriceChild: in mine I know it will work what i am asking
[12:35] <emman> so this is why they say linux is built online
[12:35] <PriceChild> SoftIce, My advice is to use the output of the following factoid to get a list of all installed packages.
[12:36] <PriceChild> !clone > SoftIce
[12:36] <dawn_chorus> Stevethepirate, would a sample sources.list help?
[12:36] <leagris> Huffameg, pleas wait on phone
[12:36] <PriceChild> SoftIce, then use some bash scripting to place it into a apt-get install --reinstall
[12:36] <anakao> hi all
[12:36] <Stevethepirate> dawn_chorus: if its for dapper.. please.
[12:36] <CyberMad> ouch.. it just need restart, so the network configuration is work very well right now
[12:36] <anakao> do i really need a firewall under linux?
[12:36] <dawn_chorus> Stevethepirate, hm ... there -is- an automatic sources builder.  maybe it can make one especially for Dapper.
[12:37] <defrysk> anakao, if you run for example a server yes, if you run no services, not really
[12:37] <VoX> else-: did that work?
[12:37] <emman> magnetron: are you still there my savior?
[12:37] <primski> anakao, no, in fact, if you dont, your safer than on windows box without firewall
[12:37] <Stevethepirate> dawn_chorus: please do.. the url is http://ftp.leg.uct.ac.za/pub/linux/ubuntu
[12:37] <SoftIce> PriceChild: nope not what I want either, i want to use a installation media to re-build the base. what i get though is because packages are installed i'm getting messages in 1 of my ptys telling me that there is a package installed and do you want to keep the current or install the maintence package or something to that affect, thing is I can't answer those questions from wtihin a install cd so i cant use option 'I'
[12:37] <dawn_chorus> Stevethepirate,  http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic/
[12:37] <Stevethepirate> thanks
[12:37] <anakao> ok, i just use a desktop pc
[12:37] <SoftIce> so is there some pre-configure strings one can set before doing an install to use an interactive answer of -I or -Y or something similar
[12:38] <PriceChild> SoftIce, chroot ?
[12:38] <primski> i use no FW for desktop use
[12:38] <PriceChild> SoftIce, I really just think you should backup data and reinstall if you're not going to try and fix the problem
[12:38] <igxmyzt> someone help me with my vid card probs?
[12:38] <SoftIce> PriceChild: chroot isn't going to answer the questions, i need to attach to a certain process but i can't if i cant screen the session before it starts

[12:39] <emman> magnetron: are you still there my savior?
[12:39] <igxmyzt> defrysk: i did, no one answered.
[12:39] <PriceChild> SoftIce, so you just want to reinstall?
[12:39] <defrysk> igxmyzt, if you get no answer be patient and ask again later
[12:39] <martin_> igxmyzt: I may not be able to help - what is the problem?

[12:41] <martin_> igxmyzt: open a terminal and run  lspci
[12:41] <anakao> defrysk: ok, many thanks
[12:42] <SoftIce> PriceChild: its not as easy to backup this data in this situation, i don't have any other boxes here to mount the drive to copy across. i dont want to drop to a shell and start network and move 40gigs of info over my adsl because that would hurt my pocket
[12:42] <anakao> defrysk: ok, thx a lot
[12:42] <igxmyzt> martin_: how, the display is black. entirely.
[12:42] <martin_> igxmyzt - run from terminal
[12:42] <martin_> ie - dont boot to gnome or kde
[12:43] <igxmyzt> martin_: how do i get to terminal?
[12:43] <PriceChild> SoftIce, well as far as I know, the ubuntu installers require you to format your / before instillation of the system.
[12:43] <emman> Help me with Samba Plsssss... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25518/
[12:43] <Lincoherent_> #ubuntu-fr
[12:43] <SoftIce> PriceChild: not if you manually strucute the parition table, what i have done. then you get a few warnings that some files are going to be overwriten the it starts to overwrite then t wants to ustalize ceratin conf files and pops up questions to overwrite what you cant answer because all i can see is a tail of some logs
[12:44] <SoftIce> not actually attach to the process to answer the question or add dpkg string to use -f, etc
[12:44] <martin_> igxmyzt - does ctrl -alt-f1 work?
[12:44] <stinger_au> any one here about to install gcc-4.2 ?
[12:44] <igxmyzt> martin_: nothing works on the login screen
[12:44] <martin_> ok, you may need to recover from grub
[12:45] <ShinSR71> ijhhihui
[12:45] <igxmyzt> martin_: so i select the ubuntu.7.04-recovery in grub?
[12:46] <martin_> igxmyzt- did you have graphics working before?
[12:46] <guacamole> Fine
[12:46] <Plantain> hehe
[12:47] <igxmyzt> martin_:yes, but i upgraded to a new gfx card, and i dualboot with winxp, which imo, i like it better than *nix. I use dual monitors with winxp. First monitor WAS a 9250, second was integrated. on linux, only used the 9250. Now i want to use the new one with linux which is in a dif slot.

[12:50] <cryptovenom> anyone?
[12:51] <matilda2006> hi all!
[12:51] <cryptovenom> well?
[12:51] <k31th> how can i see how much space i have left on my machine, i know i can do df -m etc but how can i find out which files and folders are taking up all the space on my server?
[12:52] <matilda> actually I got suck when trying dual booting with XP.
[12:52] <SoftIce> vwaa
[12:52] <martin_> nice. so - you've swapped the old one out - and then tried to boot, and got a black screen?
[12:52] <SoftIce> fixed it... just amended paramenters to the config.
[12:52] <cryptovenom> Anybody having problems watching ustream.tv in Ubuntu?
[12:52] <igxmyzt> martin_: no, put this in a new slot, left the old in and did a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:52] <leagris> Huffameg, Im back investigated the error logs
[12:52] <matilda> can anyone help me?
[12:53] <Huffameg> leagris: great!
[12:53] <martin_> so - which ATI drivers are you using?
[12:53] <cryptovenom> can anyone help me?
[12:53] <leagris> Huffameg, there are no problem regarding CSS Key decoding so it is not related to libdvdcss
[12:53] <igxmyzt> martin_: right before i did the xorg reconfigure to switch to the new vid card i installed the restricted
[12:53] <matilda> crypto, I got suck when dual booting with XP
[12:53] <Huffameg> leagris: okay.. do you see what the problem is?
[12:54] <matilda> will I explain?
[12:54] <cryptovenom> ?
[12:54] <leagris> Huffameg, however there is a critical error about memory allocation of Xvideo ressource used to overlay the video inside the X Window subsystem
[12:54] <cryptovenom> i'm talking about ustream,tv
[12:54] <CheshireViking> !anyone | matilda
[12:54] <ubotu> matilda: 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?
[12:54] <Huffameg> leagris: hmm.. i don't quite understand..
[12:54] <dawn_chorus> k31th, ls -lS will give you a list of your files from largest to smallest.
[12:55] <lbawinowns> Is it me or is the hibernate function just totally ruining your session?
[12:55] <leagris> Huffameg, either it is related to Xorg video driver for your gfx card, or you  happen tu use a laptom low profile gfx card with shared memory and it went out of shared video ram for some reasoon
[12:55] <martin_> igxmyzt - so - you need to find out where your new graphics card is on the pci bus....
[12:55] <matilda> I have 2 hdd, in primary one I have XP. in 2nd one I want to install ubuntu, how?
[12:55] <igxmyzt> martin_: correct. and to figure out how to fix the current bsod problem on the login screen.
[12:56] <magnetron> emman: you have entered invalid paths for the faber01 and the faber02 shares
[12:56] <Huffameg> leagris: okay. and this has happened just now? how can i fix it?
[12:56] <lbawinowns> eerything goes 10x slower after I have recovered from hibernate, anyone know why?
[12:56] <CheshireViking> !install | matilda
[12:56] <ubotu> matilda: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[12:56] <cryptovenom> i guest i'm not going to get help here
[12:56] <dawn_chorus> matilda, it's rather easy.  the liveCD installer or the alternate CD installer will walk you through it.  are you familiar with mount points?
[12:56] <CheshireViking> !patience | cryptovenom
[12:56] <ubotu> cryptovenom: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[12:56] <leagris> Huffameg, it may went away after rebooting (freeing some memory or getting updated drivers loaded)
[12:57] <martin_> igxmyzt - I think you're going to need to recover an old config first, then find out where your new card is (lspci) - and then repeat
[12:57] <Huffameg> leagris: i have rebooted several times without results..
[12:57] <matilda> It is little bit confusing, both sites.
[12:57] <Huffameg> leagris: and i can't see how i'm using more memory now than before..
[12:57] <igxmyzt> martin_: has an old config been auto-saved?
[12:57] <dawn_chorus> matilda, are you familiar with a "mount point"?
[12:57] <sahil> is there a way to increase the speed at which firefox opens up
[12:57] <martin_> igxmyzt - it seems likely that your black screen is a result of you trying to use one of the other two gfx cards with the wrong drivers
[12:58] <lbawinowns> sahil : remove unncessary extensions?
[12:58] <gerhard> http://nopaste.ch/bfdd0941d6f59fc.html this is not a read-only system, what is wrong except from that it must be -R ?
[12:58] <martin_> igxmyzt - sorry, its a while since I've had to use it - you should have a few xorg.confs available
[12:58] <igxmyzt> martin_:does ubuntu keep copies of the config i can restore by itself, or would i have had to save backups? I'm new in linux and its way beyond fun atm.
[12:59] <sahil> lbawinowns i don't have any
[12:59] <leagris> Huffameg, are you usiing a laptop or embeded gfx chipset?
[12:59] <martin_> igxmyzt - you'll have an xorg.conf.original, or something like that
[12:59] <Huffameg> leagris: laptop. Dell Inspiron 6400
[12:59] <lbawinowns> sahil , oh, Well Mine loads quickly even though i have maany extensions
[12:59] <igxmyzt> martin_: alright, thanks, ill try it.
[12:59] <martin_> igxmyzt but you should backup before you change it anyway - its good practise
[12:59] <leagris> Huffameg, may be after a kernel upgrade
[12:59] <kalib> igxmyzt, in normal case u should always have some backups before edit files
[01:00] <igxmyzt> martin_: how do you back it up?
[01:00] <matilda> martin: is ubotu a bot?
[01:00] <leagris> Huffameg, what gfx chip is it and what driver does it use?
[01:00] <igxmyzt> matilda: yes
[01:00] <theTrav> hello.  I'm playing around with my install of feisty and looking into themes.  I can see a few that appear to have a small collection of icons down the bottom instead of a task bar
[01:00] <sahil> lbawinowns how long does it take yours to load and what are your computer specs

[01:00] <bullgard4> What is a 'syndication feed' in the sentence: "A podcast is a digital media file that is distributed over the Internet using syndication feeds for playback on portable media players and personal computers."
[01:00] <varka> bullgard4: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_syndication
[01:00] <kalib> igxmyzt, you will just subscribe your file....
[01:00] <martin_> matilda - yes
[01:00] <defrysk> bullgard4, rssfeed
[01:00] <Huffameg> leagris: yeah.. i have had some kernel updates recently.. how do i find out what kind of chip and which driver?
[01:00] <martin_> igxmyzt - just make a copy of it before you change it
[01:01] <lbawinowns> sahil. dunno, max 5 sec, I always start 4 programs in the start. I have 3 GHz
[01:01] <sahil> 5 secs is way to long
[01:01] <sahil> my office loads in 1
[01:01] <defrysk> sahil, would 5 secs be a prob ?
[01:02] <lbawinowns> Well, I cant really count since I simultenously open Thunderbird, Rhytmbox, and Kopete
[01:02] <sahil> defrysk, yes, very big one since i use it at school and 5 secs is way too long to wait
[01:02] <lbawinowns> Its a lot faster than in Windows lol
[01:02] <defrysk> sahil, school is one long waiting process....
[01:02] <sahil> lbawinowns, it feels the same
[01:02] <Hor|zon> if you have a long wait with a good proc then it's probably ram
[01:02] <bullgard4> varka: The site you are mentioning I read before... It does not mention the term 'syndication feed' at all.
[01:02] <sahil> defrysk :(
[01:03] <bullgard4> defrysk: Thank you.
[01:03] <sahil> Hor|zon i have 1 gig
[01:03] <westoncampbell> I changed the mount options on my 20GB portable media player and I put something wrong and it's not mounting now. How can I still access the drive so that I can fix the problem?
[01:03] <Hor|zon> yeah it's the 1 gig...if you have anything running like azureus or firefox for a while
[01:03] <Hor|zon> your comp will run slower with 1 gig
[01:03] <Hor|zon> might want to upgrade
[01:04] <matilda> martin I have 2 specific prblem. May I ask u in private?
[01:04] <lbawinowns> westoncampbell, re-put-in the cable?
[01:04] <martin_> matilda - sure
[01:04] <westoncampbell> lbawinowns: I still get the "Can't Mount" error.
[01:04] <sahil> Hor|Zon, just OpenOffice word
[01:04] <dawn_chorus> westoncampbell,
[01:05] <varka> bullgard4: then you havent read it properly as it answers your question but in a more common way as rssfeed is not the only type of syndication feed, atom is also e.g.
[01:05] <Hor|zon> sahil, how long has it been running?
[01:05] <dawn_chorus> westoncampbell, what do you mean, you put something wrong?  could you be more specific as to what you did when your player wouldn't mount any more?
[01:05] <theTrav> http://www.gnome-look.org/CONTENT/content-pre1/59952-1.jpg <-- the icons down the bottom
[01:05] <theTrav> how do I do/configure that?
[01:05] <theTrav> I think it has something to do with beryl?
[01:06] <dawn_chorus> theTrav, no.  that's a dock.  maybe kiba-dock.
[01:06] <matilda> martin, I have some question for u in private.
[01:06] <theTrav> ok, a dock
[01:06] <Huffameg> leagris: ?
[01:06] <westoncampbell> dawn_chorus: It said I put a wrong character in the mount options and it's not mounting anymore. I need to get back to settings to change what I entered to the right info.
[01:06] <theTrav> what is a dock and where do I read about them?
[01:06] <igxmyzt> martin_: quick question, what was the command to check the bus number again?
[01:07] <Sir_N00balot> so this ubuntoo thing ... run it on some sort of electronic computer right ?
[01:07] <dawn_chorus> westoncampbell, in /etc/fstab maybe?
[01:07] <defrysk> varka, bullgard4 hasnt read any of the suggested url's so I answered him with rss feed to stop him from asking again and again
[01:07] <theTrav> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dock_(computing) <-- AHAH!
[01:07] <Jos3> ...

[01:11] <CyberMad> when i try to install yahoo messenger, it need xlibs
[01:11] <Fredrik_B> aha now it will probobly work

[01:11] <westoncampbell> dawn_chorus: When mounted, an Icon was put on the desktop. I right clicked it and went to properties.I then when to one of the tabs and changed the mount options to have fmask=777, etc. so that it would allow me to create and remove files.

[01:13] <dawn_chorus> aren't libs usually in a dev package?
[01:13] <wt> how do I burn dvds that have been ripped to my HD. These are not *.iso files but the VIDEO_TS directories
[01:13] <Sir_N00balot> in all seriousness, im a n00b. I'll shut up now and learn. apologies for my previous behavior
[01:13] <rpersky> ok, now i am confused.... which would be better - AMD sempron 3000 or Intel Celeron D 2.8Ghz
[01:13] <PriceChild> dawn_chorus, libs are usually in lib packages, development headers come in -dev packages
[01:14] <dawn_chorus> PriceChild, ok.  thanks.
[01:14] <crdlb> rpersky, #hardware might be a better place for that question :)
[01:14] <martin_> CyberMad: try this....     sudo apt-get install libxft1
[01:14] <rpersky> crdlb ok
[01:15] <dawn_chorus> westoncampbell, when you plug in the player, check dmesg to find its device name.  maybe we can mount it manually to fix it.
[01:16] <westoncampbell> ok
[01:16] <uyohm> Hi ! What actually are the main differences between apt-get and aptitude ? I hear sometimes its better to use aptitude but I'm not sure why !
[01:16] <steveire> Hi. I made another user on my laptop. Shouldn't I be able to run graphical applications after switching to that user on te command line? It's not working and I need help.
[01:16] <defrysk> uyohm, aptitude hase more powers and nees to be used with care

[01:17] <uyohm> defrysk : I see !
[01:18] <HereBeDragon> Hello guys, how do I calculate a broadcast mask?
[01:18] <emman>  I wonder I can access faber02 without supplying a user name and pw
[01:18] <steveire> i've done export DISPLAY=:0.0 already
[01:18] <uyohm> defrysk : In what sense  ? that aptitude would automatically install / remove packages / dependencies ?
[01:18] <defrysk> uyohm, aptiude is able to wipe your os just to resolve one dependency
[01:18] <uyohm> defrysk : so thats a yes to my question :)
[01:18] <matilda> martin r u here?
[01:18] <PriceChild> uyohm, no that's the user who doesn't know what he's doing and assumes yes that does that
[01:18] <martin_> matilda: yes
[01:19] <westoncampbell> dawn_chorus: AV_LYRA is the volume name shown in error. dmesg doesn't show too much about device names.
[01:19] <martin_> I've sent you a pm matilda
[01:19] <matilda> I asked u some question in private. U didn't response.
[01:19] <martin_> matilda... ?
[01:19] <dawn_chorus> westoncampbell, pastebin the error / dmesg output for us.
[01:19] <matilda> yes
[01:19] <uyohm> ok thanks for the info guys :!
[01:19] <defrysk> uyohm, it means aptitude is not a tool for new users
[01:20] <magnetron> matilda: you need to be registered to be able to PM. see that martin_ ?
[01:20] <callas> sup?
[01:20] <steveire> Anyone?

[01:21] <dawn_chorus> would steveire need to add his new user to some groups, like video, etc, to get his new use up and running?

[01:32] <confusednoob> jrib:  it seems that usb is disconnecting
[01:32] <dawn_chorus> westoncampbell, i'm not sure what's going on dude.  sorry.
[01:33] <rpersky> june_ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[01:33] <westoncampbell> dawn_chorus: I thought as much... It's hard. Thanks for trying!
[01:33] <rpersky> june_ if it doesn't work just check the other options and use the one that best fits
[01:33] <westoncampbell> dawn_chorus: I really appreciate it
[01:33] <dawn_chorus> june_, it may be best to install 7.04 freshly.  can you get a copy of a 7.04 install disk?
[01:33] <Huffameg> can someone help me. my media player just shuts down when i try to open a dvd. i get this error message: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25517/

[01:46] <Huffameg> really.. no one who can help me? my media player shuts down every time i try to open a dvd. I get this error message in terminal: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25517/
[01:48] <ubuntuish> how do i go about changing my identd? (currently is my user a/c on ubuntu)
[01:48] <SmileyLap> hi guys, how would i setup hibernation? (i can't find anything in the docs!)
[01:48] <lbawinowns> My hibernateing function is totally .... fucked up, it makes the computer go 10x slower when I recover from the Hibernation, anyone know anything about this issue?
[01:48] <rpersky> does ubuntu support firewire??
[01:48] <ubuntuish> SmileyLap, click on system -> prefrences -> screensaver, click on power management there
[01:48] <ubuntuish> rpersky, connect and find out :o)
[01:49] <rpersky> lbawinowns: first no swaring, second, don't hibinate if it gives u problems
[01:49] <rpersky> ubuntuish: see, i have not bought the motherboard yet :p
[01:50] <ubuntuish> lol
[01:50] <lbawinowns> rpersky , ok, but I sometime want to press "esc" and hit hibernate on keyboard. Is there anyway to set what Ubuntu should do if I hit a button?
[01:50] <mpathy> Hi there.. can somebody tell me a internal card reader for 5,25" or 3,5" which works good at ubuntu?
[01:50] <emman> hello can any one help me with file sharing?
[01:50] <mpathy> (for ms, sm, mmc, etc.)
[01:51] <rpersky> lbawinowns i think there is a thing you can uncheck in the power properties applet
[01:51] <magnetron> mpathy: any card reader that supports standard USB will work
[01:51] <ubuntuish> lbawinowns, click on system -> prefrences -> screensaver, click on power management there change the option to ask me
[01:51] <rpersky> lbawinowns yer what he said
[01:51] <emman> I have problem with samba
[01:51] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, what video card and video driver are you using?

[01:52] <lbawinowns> Im not talking about that button
[01:52] <lbawinowns> Not the "start computer" button , there is a button on the keyboard with a moon on
[01:53] <emman> anyone can help
[01:54] <ubuntuish> lbawinowns, click on system -> prefrences -> screensaver, click on power management there click on the general tab -> buttons -> when the button is pressed: *select ask me* or what is appropritate
[01:54] <emman> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25527/ I can't restrict user faber01
[01:54] <rpersky> lbawinowns well if i press that button... all my troubles will be gone since i will be SLEEP
[01:54] <mgedmin> can I scream?  I suffer from a system crasher bug I reported back in January, and no-one from the Ubuntu team ever gave any indication that they even read it :(
[01:55] <ubuntuish> emman, remove faber01 from valid users
[01:55] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: how do i find out?
[01:55] <emman> but I need faber01 to access faber01 folder
[01:55] <lbawinowns> ubuntuish it is only for the button that turns on the computer
[01:55] <ubuntuish> emman, i am confused what are you trying to do?
[01:56] <ubuntuish> lbawinowns, what version are you using?
[01:56] <emman> I don't want faber01 user to access faber02 folder
[01:56] <lbawinowns> 7.04
[01:56] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, lspci | grep VGA
[01:56] <magnetron> mgedmin: someone must have read it, because it is confirmed
[01:56] <emman> but it can access
[01:56] <ubuntuish> ok
[01:56] <lbawinowns> I find that menu, but there is only for buttonn that turns on computer
[01:57] <ubuntuish> lbawinowns, sorry thats about all i knew
[01:57] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
[01:57] <lbawinowns> Thanks anyway, Good to know in any case :)
[01:57] <mgedmin> magnetron: I confirmed it myself
[01:58] <CyberMad> how to improve speed of my ubuntu? i don't need best user interface.. i just need fast access.. because my ubuntu lagging
[01:58] <Sito> holaaaaas
[01:58] <Azul> !fluxbox|CyberMad
[01:58] <ubotu> CyberMad: fluxbox is a lightweight and responsive window manager for GNU/Linux. For how to set it up and more information see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fluxbox
[01:58] <magnetron> mgedmin: you shouldn't do that, now it will not be read and taken care of
[01:58] <DjViper> CyberMad: CLI ;)
[01:58] <lbawinowns> CyberMad - Imm not sure this is waht your looks for, maybe Xubuntu is a good DE
[01:59] <mgedmin> magnetron: that might be true, but it was sitting there unconfirmed for 5 months without any reaction either
[01:59] <Azul> try both and decide
[01:59] <SmileyLap> hi guys, how would i setup hibernation? (i can't find anything in the docs!)
[01:59] <magnetron> mgedmin: there is truly a lot of bugs in launchpad
[01:59] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, OK.  now, cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep Driver   you should see either i810 or Intel, I think.
[01:59] <Azul> fluxbox has a lot faster response than xfce
[01:59] <mgedmin> although, a good reason to keep it unconfirmed is that I'm not sure it's the kernel's fault, might be something different
[01:59] <twiztr> Gah. You can't find a PCI graphics card above 8MB anywhere...
[02:00] <lbawinowns> smileylap , how you hibernate?
[02:00] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: yeah, i810
[02:00] <Azul> PCI as in PCI express?
[02:00] <SmileyLap> i go to it from the shutdown menu
[02:00] <twiztr> No, PCI as in a P2 box.
[02:00] <kraypius> cane someone please help me with wine? opengl isnt working with it for some reason
[02:01] <lbawinowns> Yea, just press the button and it will hibernate I think
[02:01] <Azul> i see
[02:01] <twiztr> Question, I have a new drive plugged in, and it's not showing up on anything, I think it's because it was a Win hdd.
[02:01] <magnetron> kraypius: what win32 app are we talking about?
[02:01] <Azul> twiztr: it should show up
[02:01] <kraypius> magnetron, world of warcraft
[02:01] <Azul> twiztr: what file system?
[02:01] <twiztr> FAT32
[02:01] <twiztr> I think
[02:01] <twiztr> What's the partition program called?
[02:02] <omkar86> does anybodu here use Pacenet ISP in india?
[02:02] <twiztr> qtpartd or something
[02:02] <Azul> twiztr: try mounting it manually
[02:02] <lbawinowns> qtparted*
[02:02] <lbawinowns> I think
[02:02] <Azul> there is gparted and qtparted
[02:02] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: now what?
[02:02] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, sorry.  phone.
[02:02] <magnetron> http://www.wowwiki.com/Linux/Wine , kraypius
[02:02] <twiztr> qtparted not found...
[02:03] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: :)
[02:03] <kraypius> magnetron, when i go to run the wow exe, it says "World of Warcraft was unable to start up 3D acceleration"
[02:03] <david_nyc> I wonder if anyone can help me rebuild a trashed partition table.  I find that the number of reported total sectors on my disk varies slightly between cfdisk and hdparm, and that the sizes of the partitions from cfdisk don't add up to the number of free sectors.  Does anyone understand this?
[02:03] <twiztr> I tried 'mount /hdb1/ /mnt/hdb1/'
[02:03] <twiztr> And it says special dev /hdb1/ not found.
[02:03] <kraypius> magentron, this is only when i enable opengl in the wow config... like im supposed to
[02:03] <Azul> twiztr: don't guess, issue fdisk -l
[02:03] <magnetron> kraypius: did you read that URL i gave you?
[02:04] <omkar86> is rp-pppoe gui available for ubuntu?
[02:04] <SmileyLap> hi guys, how would i setup hibernation? (i can't find anything in the docs!)
[02:04] <SmileyLap> and no, pressing the button fails
[02:04] <Azul> twiztr: find the device from there then try to mount it
[02:04] <kraypius> magnetron, looking now
[02:04] <twiztr> Azul: Ok, cool.
[02:04] <twiztr> Be right back.
[02:04] <lbawinowns> Smileylap . How it fails , will it just not come back to normal?
[02:04] <Azul> what is so special about world of warcraft?
[02:04] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, i remember the Intel driver doing that to me when I used my integrated.  Now, my first advice is for you to get a non-integrated graphics card, preferably an nVidia, but that's not necessary.  maybe since the i810 is giving you trouble, you should use the Intel driver, see how that works?
[02:05] <DjViper> Azul: oh nothing... its just extremely addictive :P

[02:05] <lbawinowns> :p
[02:05] <twiztr> I never really got into WoW... Played it for a month or two...
[02:05] <twiztr> I really liked Ultima Online...
[02:05] <SmileyLap> lbawinowns: it comes up, with some random session, its like it never saves it?
[02:05] <david_nyc> Perhaps I'm on my own . . . any ideas?
[02:05] <Azul> twiztr: you're the first who i came across that said that about WoW
[02:05] <SmileyLap> Also my swap never mounts?
[02:05] <lbawinowns> SmileyLap , when you say hibernate, do you mean orange or blue button?
[02:06] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: i'm not sure if I got that (noob).. you think i should change my graphics card? is there not some easier way?
[02:06] <mpathy> magnetron: I meant a internal one..

[02:06] <magnetron> mpathy: so did i
[02:06] <lbawinowns> Man I've always mixed those two up
[02:06] <twiztr> Azul: I got it to mount, but what's the command to partition it?
[02:06] <lbawinowns> What is the correct English name for orange one?
[02:06] <david_nyc> ubotu: do you think there's no one around who can help with my trashed partition table? :-)
[02:06] <SmileyLap> lbawinowns: standby
[02:07] <lbawinowns> Ok
[02:07] <mpathy> magnetron: oh okay.. I try to find a internal which works over USB
[02:07] <Azul> twiztr: man fdisk.. or read online about fdisk
[02:07] <twiztr> Wtf... Nevermind, it's only a 1.5 GB drive...
[02:07] <lbawinowns> david_nyc , usually, we won't speak to bots here :p
[02:07] <twiztr> Not even worth partitioning it.
[02:07] <magnetron> mpathy: all the internal card readers i have seen use USB
[02:07] <DShepherd> how do i change the amount of times my partition is automatically checked..
[02:07] <DShepherd> ?
[02:07] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, yeah.  there's an easier way.  change video drivers.  you're using the i810, so change to the Intel.  maybe that's the culprit.  sudo aptitude install xserver-xorg-video-intel
[02:08] <mpathy> magnetron: But those in laptop for example not because they dont work well
[02:08] <david_nyc> libawinowns, whoops! I thought this guy might be able to help me :-)
[02:08] <ubuntu-rocks> i am using lvm on my fiesty box, first time, and notice that installing thing take a while, could be just me but does lvm decrease performance?
[02:09] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: and that shuold take care of it?
[02:09] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: i'll check..
[02:09] <magnetron> mpathy: if you find any IDE version, that should work as well
[02:10] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: no, it didn't help..
[02:10] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, you'll have to restart X.  ctrl-alt-backspace
[02:10] <mpathy> magnetron: Ever used a card reader at ubuntu? None of the card readers in laptops of the people I know work at ubuntu. So I thought it probably might be the same with those for workstations
[02:10] <lbawinowns> Hey SmileyLap, what is ram memory / swap size ?
[02:10] <makuseru> what terminal based program can i use to extract .zip's?
[02:11] <magnetron> makuseru: unzip
[02:11] <SmileyLap> 1.5gig lbawinowns for swap, 512 for ram
[02:11] <makuseru> thank you
[02:11] <lbawinowns> SmileyLap , Ok that is fine then
[02:12] <SmileyLap> yep
[02:12] <SmileyLap> it used to work lbawinowns, and hten it was updated :,
[02:14] <kraypius> magnetron, nothing is helping
[02:14] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: no, it didn't work..
[02:14] <magnetron> kraypius: what graphics card are you using? and what drivers?
[02:14] <kraypius> ati
[02:14] <magnetron> kraypius: what drivers?
[02:15] <kraypius> whats the command i dont remember
[02:15] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, no?  let's make sure of something.  cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep Driver   again and see if it's using Intel.
[02:16] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: ah.. no it doesn't.. what did i do wrong?
[02:16] <magnetron> kraypius: did you use the default free and open driver, or did you install the non-free one with "restricted drivers manager"?
[02:16] <onats> hi, can anyone help me with gimp?
[02:16] <kraypius> http://pastebin.ca/566308
[02:16] <Carmella> onats: what's the problem?
[02:16] <kraypius> i dont remember, it was months ago
[02:17] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: i mean it isn't.. :P
[02:17] <Carmella> i can't help you if you don't know the problem
[02:17] <onats> carmella, i need to run a batch process, to make png files transparent.. already downloaded a script for it.. just don't know how to run it
[02:17] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, you did install xserver-xorg-video-intel, didn't you?
[02:17] <cybergonzales> hey guys
[02:18] <magnetron> kraypius: ok, looks like you are using fglrx. it may be the case that you have to install the proprietary driver. try the "proprietary driver manager"
[02:18] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: yeah.. i think so.. let's try again.. what was the command?
[02:18] <Carmella> onats: probably the Xtns menu.. there are python scripts and gimp scripts
[02:18] <magnetron> kraypius: sorry, that's the "restricted drivers manager"
[02:18] <onats> carmella, i think its a python script.. with a PL extension
[02:18] <kraypius> magnetron, also, it was working fine with opengl support before i upgraded to fiesty the other day
[02:18] <snoop> onats give your link of the script
[02:19] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, sudo aptitude install xserver-xorg-video-intel   be sure to mention any errors that return from that command.  :)
[02:19] <bthornton> I'm running Feisty x86_64.  What are my options for getting the NX client running on my machine?  The *.debs supplied at http://www.nomachine.com/ are i386 only...
[02:19] <magnetron> kraypius: you are using the wrong graphics driver
[02:19] <onats> snoop, http://registry.gimp.org/list?name=webify
[02:19] <Carmella> onats: i never really used extensions or scripts with the gimp
[02:19] <kraypius> magnetron, how to uninstall?
[02:19] <jscinoz> Is it possible to make a CD that displays different content depending on OS that reads it?
[02:19] <magnetron> kraypius: install the new one and it will work. use the restricted drivers manager!!!!!
[02:19] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: no errors, but it says that nothing was installed..
[02:20] <Carmella> it's a perl script
[02:20] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: that is, it says that nothing needs to be installed..
[02:20] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, ok.  that's because it's already installed we just need to change xorg.conf ourselves.
[02:20] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: a-ok.
[02:20] <snoop> sorry i forgive i havent the gimp installed on this pc
[02:20] <onats> snoop, how do i add it to the gimp?
[02:21] <kraypius> k rebooting
[02:21] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup && gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf  change i180 to Intel.
[02:22] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: okay, i have a text window..
[02:22] <Carmella> onats: i think you have install the gimp-perl package
[02:22] <Carmella> first
[02:22] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: integrated graphics controller, just change i810 to intel?
[02:23] <cybergonzales> can anayone tell me how to format or partition a disc using gnome? As you see I'm new to this.
[02:23] <onats> carmella, right... installing now...
[02:23] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, right.
[02:23] <snoop> i don't do this from too long time, i need a gimp install for help you
[02:23] <magnetron> cybergonzales: use gparted
[02:23] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: okay, done.
[02:23] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, should say "Driver" to the left of i810
[02:23] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: yup..
[02:23] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, ok.  save the file and exit the editor.
[02:23] <cybergonzales> magnetron: cool, thanks
[02:24] <Rkod> Hello, can anyone offer me some help? I just tried to install Xubuntu, Ubuntu, and Kubuntu, with wubi, newest versions of course (7.04), and they install prefectrly fine. But when it's time to boot up, they freeze within 3 bars of the loading cscreen (with the logo for ubuntu, kubuntu, etc), does anyone have an idea of hoaw to solve this?
[02:24] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: yes, and i checked it in terminal - it seems right. restart X?
[02:24] <Haraldus> hello
[02:24] <tommy_> hello

[02:25] <ubotu> dshepherd: 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
[02:25] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, remember that if X doesn't restart you have a working xorg.conf sitting in xorg.conf.backup.  just sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf && sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start if you fall back to command line.
[02:25] <tommy_> ive been trying to install ndiswrapper 1.47 now, but i cant seem to get it right
[02:25] <kdubois> Rkod, try booting up in recovery mode to see where exactly it freezes during boot. that will help solve the prob...
[02:26] <DShepherd> Carmella, its been 20 minutes... ok fine.. point taken ...
[02:26] <emman> ok one more question before I go to bed
[02:26] <tommy_> after i compile and make install the 1.47 pack from their site, and press ndiswrapper -v i still get 1.38
[02:26] <Rkod> How do I do that? I tried booting up in "text" mode, but the numbers keep going.
[02:26] <emman> any one has an idea where to get a good C IDE with a compiler.. a tested one?
[02:27] <tommy_> i liked anjuta
[02:27] <mpathy> emman: There are MANY :)
[02:27] <mpathy> Anjuta if you use and like Gnome, KDevelop if you like and use KDE
[02:27] <Carmella> what is a C IDE?
[02:27] <emman> I tried ajunta but it doesn't work
[02:27] <Rkod> Compiler I believe
[02:27] <DShepherd> Carmella, and you tell me about repeat???!!!
[02:27] <Rkod> Or C++ thing
[02:28] <DShepherd> Carmella, and you dont know a C IDE?
[02:28] <gordonjcp> mpathy: actually I used to use KDevelop in Gnome too
[02:28] <DShepherd> Carmella, :-P
[02:28] <emman> I mean it worked but it doesn't show the output
[02:28] <Carmella> DShepherd: so?
[02:28] <Carmella> DShepherd: i didn't repeat the question
[02:28] <gordonjcp> emman: what doesn't work?
[02:28] <mpathy> if you use eclipse altough, the C IDE for it is also great
[02:28] <Carmella> DShepherd: you repeated yours maybe 10 times
[02:28] <emman> it creates the object only
[02:28] <DShepherd> Carmella, that's not true.. but this is not the place to argue about that
[02:28] <gordonjcp> DShepherd: did you get an answer?
[02:28] <Carmella> DShepherd: besides, we're not born scientists
[02:28] <DShepherd> gordonjcp, no i didnt
[02:28] <Rkod> How can I startup Kubuntu in recovery mode?
[02:29] <DShepherd> Carmella, i only repeated once..
[02:29] <Carmella> DShepherd: argue about what?
[02:29] <Jimmey> Rkod, select "recovery mode" from the grub prompt
[02:29] <emman> or can you teach me how to run ajunta?
[02:29] <mpathy> emman: How you like that? http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/de/8/8c/Eclipse-cdt.jpg
[02:29] <DShepherd> Carmella, we can talk in offtopic if you want
[02:29] <Rkod> It doesn't give me a choice, just  Windows XP, or  Kubuntu
[02:29] <Rkod> And when i hit either
[02:29] <Rkod> It goes straight to the starup for it
[02:29] <gordonjcp> hr,
[02:29] <emman> I have it compiled and linked already
[02:29] <Carmella> DShepherd: don't repeat your question.. there is nothing to argue about.. it's one of the rules of this channel
[02:29] <emman> can you teach me how to run ajunta?
[02:30] <gordonjcp> I can only see DShepherd's question about fsck cropping up twice in my scrollback
[02:30] <Jimmey> Rkod, why do you need to?
[02:30] <Rkod> Because when i try to start up ubuntu it freezes within the first 3 bars
[02:30] <mpathy> emman: I use eclipse for all programming stuff.. PyDev for Python, Aptana for HTML, CSS, and Javascript/AJAX stuff
[02:30] <Carmella> DShepherd: and i didn't mean in anyway to attack you
[02:30] <DShepherd> gordonjcp, cause i only asked it twice.. i dont know what Carmella is talking about
[02:30] <Carmella> so you don't have to act like a victim
[02:30] <Rkod> I even let it stand for 35 minutes while I ate and nothing happened
[02:30] <emman> does it work?
[02:30] <DShepherd> Carmella, yeah i know it is a rule.. thanks for the reminder..
[02:30] <emman> student friendly ?
[02:31] <emman> because I want to use it in highschool
[02:31] <mpathy> emman: Also CDT for C stuff.. Many great companies use it, also many free developer -> YES ;)
[02:31] <Jimmey> Rkod, you need to add the recovery mode option to GRUB's menu.lst, or remove the "quiet" option for Ubuntu's entry
[02:31] <mpathy> emman: If you study IT here in germany the most schools use it
[02:31] <emman> mine is for educational purpose only
[02:32] <emman> but im in the philippines
[02:32] <Rkod> How can I do that from windows? Because that's all I have access to
[02:32] <Amadeus> hi
[02:32] <gordonjcp> DShepherd: I think it's tune2fs
[02:32] <gordonjcp> DShepherd: have a look at the man page for that
[02:32] <Amadeus> is there a way to install feisty but with an earlier kernel?
[02:32] <kraypius2> magnetron, now x wont start. i used that interface to disable the driver
[02:32] <Rkod> Actually I just found the file
[02:32] <emman> mpathy what IDE are you refering to?
[02:32] <Amadeus> I am installing on an old thinkpad i1300, and it does not like 2.6.15 and onwards
[02:33] <kraypius2> magnetron, now im in an ncurses irc client
[02:33] <DShepherd> gordonjcp, ok will do
[02:33] <Rkod> How do i edit it, or what do i edit it with? (And what do I add to it?)
[02:33] <Jimmey> Rkod:
[02:33] <mpathy> emman: It is most likely also localized for phillipines also.. I refer to Eclipse plus CDT.. Have a look at a screencast, thats best to decide: http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/CDT:Movies
[02:34] <Amadeus> Question is there a way to install feisty but with an earlier kernel?
[02:34] <emman> I just need an IDE that can look friendly to student
[02:34] <DShepherd> gordonjcp, thanks.. that worked well
[02:34] <Rkod> Yes Jimmey?
[02:34] <Amadeus> sorry
[02:34] <Jimmey> Rkod, gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst in a terminal, remove the line "quiet" from Ubuntu's entry
[02:34] <emman> highschool student
[02:34] <SmileyLap> im bak
[02:34] <DShepherd> emman, geany maybe?
[02:34] <PriceChild> !kernel | Amadeus
[02:34] <ubotu> Amadeus: kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[02:34] <emman> geany.. sounds new.. is it free?
[02:34] <Rkod> There's Menu. LST or Menu.LST~ . only LST?
[02:35] <kraypius2> guys, how do I open a second command prompt if not using X? and switch between them?
[02:35] <Jimmey> Rkod, right

[02:35] <kraypius2> thx
[02:35] <Jimmey> kraypius2, CTRL+ALT+F1-F8, I thihnk
[02:35] <Amadeus> ubotu : well, I can't build a new kernel. I have to _boot_ on an older kernel to install feisty at all! Can I somehow get an installation cd with an older kernel?
[02:35] <Rkod> Allright, I see 3 lines that say Quiet Splash
[02:35] <TakeOut{u}> emman, codeblocks is good
[02:35] <emman> that's a pretty good advice
[02:36] <TakeOut{u}> !info codeblocks
[02:36] <Amadeus> PriceChild : well, I can't build a new kernel. I have to _boot_ on an older kernel to install feisty at all! Can I somehow get an installation cd with an older kernel?
[02:36] <ubotu> Package codeblocks does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[02:36] <DShepherd> emman, geany is free.. i think you can apt-get install it too
[02:36] <emman> I have problem with codeblock
[02:36] <emman> it can't create an object file
[02:36] <TakeOut{u}> whats the problem ?
[02:38] <gordonjcp> DShepherd: well you won't know until you've booted a certain number of times ;-)
[02:38] <mpathy> emman: oh and if I forget: its free.. one disadvantage I can think of is that its slow on older computers.
[02:38] <DShepherd> gordonjcp, i just wanted to know how to change it ;-)
[02:38] <Amadeus> Question: Is it possible to have the feisty install cd use an earlier kernel? I am installing on an old thinkpad i1300 that does not like kernels from 2.6.15 and on. I can't even boot on the current feisty boot disks (not the alternate either). So installing and then rebuilding a kernel is not possible. I can't even install!
[02:38] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: well.. it didn't work.. i'm kinda stuck on another computer now.
[02:38] <emman> like how old is slow?
[02:38] <DShepherd> gordonjcp, always saw it.. and was curious about it.. hopefully.. it should work :)
[02:38] <june_> it is a long time to upgrade my ubuntu. can i use wget to download the updates?
[02:39] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, X loaded, but still no DVD playback?
[02:39] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: what do i do to restore conf
[02:39] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, did X load?
[02:39] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: no
[02:39] <emman> mphathy: like how old is slow?
[02:39] <magnetron> june_: synaptic uses wget to download the updates
[02:39] <gordonjcp> DShepherd: there's a lot of groovy options there, many of which can completely mangle your fs
[02:39] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus, i got the restore command, but how to get to console?
[02:40] <tyranis> I have a question: how come the start button does nothing in ubuntu?
[02:40] <farroos> I have firefox with arabic local on ubunto but the menues show in english how can i change the menues to Arabic?
[02:40] <alaQ> DShepherd: first time I've heard of geany... have to check it out now.
[02:40] <mpathy> emman: Dont know.. Eclipse is a java program.. I know an indonesian (thats not far from you *g*) who uses it, I can give you his nick.. ;) What kind of computer du you have?
[02:40] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, use the reconfigure tool instead.  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and select intel when it asks which video driver.  ctrl-alt-f1 for console.
[02:41] <Amadeus> Question: Is it possible to have the feisty install cd use an earlier kernel? I am installing on an old thinkpad i1300 that does not like kernels from 2.6.15 and on. I can't even boot on the current feisty boot disks (not the alternate either). So installing and then rebuilding a kernel is not possible. I can't even install!
[02:41] <DShepherd> alaQ, its been causing some steer...
[02:41] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus, i should use the reconfigure tool before restoring X?
[02:42] <emman> pentium 4 but we have this office station.. a hardware that can make 3 workstation in a single cpu and memory
[02:42] <evilofisho> Uh, this is probably a completely noobish question but.. When I download Linux games and such and get an 'Executable', when I execute them I keep getting "Permission denied."
[02:42] <Rkod> Does anyone know what "quiet" line I have to get rid of to get the recovery option in ubuntu startup? From winsoes please, That's all I have access to now
[02:42] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus, because now, the error message tells me there is no Intel module
[02:42] <Rkod> windows*
[02:42] <emman> and we are using edubuntu
[02:42] <mpathy> emman: Thats effectively how much ram?
[02:43] <emman> about 256 mb
[02:43] <emman> but more to those connected to an office station
[02:43] <emman> 512mb use three office station

[02:44] <Amadeus> Maybe I should install dapper and then upgrade from there?
[02:44] <incorrect> what type of file is marked b?
[02:44] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, maybe the I in Intel shouldn't be capitalized.  :/
[02:44] <DShepherd> Rkod, on boot press 'e' to edit the grub menu ... and 'e' again.. to edit the boot line.. and remove quiet.. i think that should work
[02:44] <DShepherd> Rkod, from windows?? amm.. sorry.. that;s for linux..
[02:44] <Rkod> I have access to menu.lst, can I edit it from windows?
[02:44] <Rkod> I just don't know which quiet to edit, there's 3
[02:45] <gordonjcp> Rkod: yeah, you should be able to edit from windows
[02:45] <DShepherd> Rkod, but i think you can do the same editing in windows
[02:45] <Rkod> Which quiet line though?>
[02:45] <DShepherd> Rkod, which kernel you want to boot?
[02:45] <gordonjcp> without seeing the file and knowing what you plan to do, I couldn't say
[02:45] <Rkod> Not quite sure
[02:45] <evilofisho> ubotu: Thanks.
[02:45] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[02:46] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change the "Intel" to just "intel", with a lower cased 'i'.

[02:46] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, oops.  you'll need sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf in the console.
[02:46] <DShepherd> Rkod, dont paste here..
[02:46] <emman> mpathy: can you help more.. how can I contact you?
[02:46] <DShepherd> Rkod, use the pastebin...

[02:47] <JakeConnor> does ubuntu use packages?

[02:47] <magnetron> JakeConnor: yes, deb packages and the apt system
[02:47] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, ok.  sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[02:48] <JakeConnor> whats better, debian or unbuntu or gentoo?
[02:48] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus, but i didn't do the sudo nano-thing..
[02:48] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus, want me to do that first?
[02:48] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, if you used the tool, then no, don't do the other.
[02:48] <magnetron> JakeConnor: Ubuntu.
[02:48] <emman> I still 10 days to decide what IDE should I use.. I am more convince with eclipse but I don't have a gurantee it will not back crash
[02:48] <DShepherd> JakeConnor, that's just a matter of preference.... I am bias cause I am in the ubuntu channel..

[02:49] <Rkod> Big mistake of mine there
[02:49] <incorrect> i have a file that has become a block special type and i need to convert it to a normal type

[02:51] <JakeConnor> i'm really familiar with suse, i consider that easy to use because of yast which allows me to configure almost everything like firewall, network, users, packages, and stuff from a gui... does ubuntu have some sort of control panel like tat?
[02:52] <incorrect> JakeConnor, yes
[02:52] <JakeConnor> incorrect: what is it called?
[02:52] <DShepherd> Rkod, what are you trying to do ?
[02:52] <CheshireViking> JakeConnor, as magnetron said, it works for me, I don't have to bother with compiling applications, the synaptic database has got everything I've ever needed to download & automatically install
[02:52] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus, no, i don't think so.. maybe we should se wether the driver was changed...
[02:52] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus, ?
[02:52] <incorrect> JakeConnor, get vmware or something and run up yourself a desktop
[02:52] <Rkod> remove a quiet to be able to start kubuntu in recovery mode, so i can see what error there is
[02:52] <incorrect> JakeConnor, well there are a number of nice tools from the desktop
[02:53] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, yeah.  cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep Driver
[02:53] <Nivu> l
[02:53] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus, it says intel..
[02:53] <JakeConnor> what's the difference between the server edition and desktop edition?
[02:53] <DShepherd> Rkod, according to your paste... there's already a recovery option available....
[02:53] <evilofisho> Error: Unable to initialize gtk, is DISPLAY set properly?, What does this mean?
[02:53] <Rkod> There isn't
[02:53] <DShepherd> Rkod, search your file for recovery

[02:54] <Rkod> And when I start my PC up, i see WinXP and Ubuntu
[02:54] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, and launching the movie player from terminal produces the same error messages as before?
[02:54] <Rkod> If i hit either, it goes straight to it, no options
[02:54] <vieirar> What do you all suggest I use Sendmail? Is there better program to use just to allow my box to forward e-mails to me from the servers?
[02:54] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus, i'm not 100% sure, but it seems the same..
[02:55] <DShepherd> Rkod, ok
[02:55] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus, still "insufficient resources for operation"

[02:56] <Huffame1> dawn_chorus: ow do I do that?

[02:59] <dawn_chorus> Huffame1, your BIOS is you Basic In/Out Support of your motherboard.  You can configure it immediately after you boot up your system by pressing esc or f12.  Look for a message like "press esc to enter setup" when you first boot up.  then you'll have to dig around, go exploring.  look for the graphics memory control menu and set the memory higher if you can.
[02:59] <Smashcat> Hi, something I've just noticed about the "ls -l" command on ubuntu: It always multiplies the number of files by 4 in the "total " line, just before the file listing

[03:00] <jrib> evilofisho: what does this return:  echo $DISPLAY
[03:00] <JakeConnor> so anyways what's the difference between the server and desktop version? does the server not come with a desktop or something?
[03:00] <evilofisho> jrib: Blank.
[03:00] <mgedmin> on the default (ext3) filesystem each non-empty file occupies at least 4 kilobytes
[03:00] <CheshireViking> !server | JakeConnor
[03:00] <ubotu> JakeConnor: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server-specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq/ - The #ubuntu-server channel provides specific support
[03:00] <jrib> evilofisho: are you doing this after typing 'sudo -i' or something?
[03:00] <Smashcat> mgedmin: Total size of what? It's not the total size of the files in the directlry
[03:00] <evilofisho> Jrib: Nope.
[03:01] <jrib> evilofisho: you open a brand new terminal and 'echo $DISPLAY' is blank?  Are you in GNOME?
[03:01] <Rkod> What line was I supposed to edit in wubi/boot/linux?..
[03:01] <evilofisho> jrib: No wait, nevermind.. IT shows ':0.0'.
[03:02] <Smashcat> mgedmin: Suppose it could be the number of inodes in use - if so it's a pretty useless thing to list. It would make more sense to list the total number of files/directories (I know I can pipe the output through wc for this, but still)
[03:02] <jrib> evilofisho: now when you try your command, do you get the same error message?
[03:02] <evilofisho> jrib: Hey! It worked! Thanks!
[03:03] <Salaveciitis> is anyone here who can help me?
[03:03] <mgedmin> Smashcat: are you sure it's not the total size (in kilobytes)?
[03:03] <CheshireViking> !anyone | Salaveciitis
[03:03] <ubotu> Salaveciitis: 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?
[03:04] <Salaveciitis> I want to see is someone who can help first ;P
[03:04] <mgedmin> Smashcat: try ls -ls, then sum the sizes reported in the first column
[03:05] <CheshireViking> Salaveciitis, how will anybody know if they can help you, when they don't know what the problem is?
[03:05] <Salaveciitis> I ordered the ubuntu CDs, just got them, but when I try to lunch it (2nd PC) for first 3 times there was some erros, now its asking some login name
[03:05] <gordonjcp> CheshireViking: aha, but most of the questions take the form "Does anyone know why $thing [happens|doesn't happen] ?" or similar
[03:05] <Bassetts> does enabling mp3 on feisty envolve the same process and packages as dapper?
[03:05] <gordonjcp> CheshireViking: so that factoid isn't exactly helpful
[03:05] <Frogzoo> Salaveciitis: 1112 people in chan - it's unlikely anyone can help you
[03:05] <stefg> Salaveciitis: please read the guide on asking questions on IRC mentioned in /topic
[03:05] <gordonjcp> CheshireViking: a better one would be "A large number of first questions asked in this channel are similar to 'Can I ask a question?' "
[03:06] <Frogzoo> gordonjcp: +1
[03:06] <Smashcat> mgedmin: I suspect it's the amount of space used on the disk, but not the total size of the files. These would be 4k blocks, so a file of under 4k would still use 1 block
[03:06] <CheshireViking> gordonjcp, maybe so, but its not my factiod, just the standard one for the channel
[03:06] <Salaveciitis> I ordered the ubuntu CDs, just got them, but when I try to lunch it (2nd PC) for first 3 times there was some erros, now its asking some login name.  Who can help me with this problem?
[03:06] <mgedmin> Smashcat: yes, that's what I had in mind
[03:06] <Farhod> can some one help me on network monitoring systems? what better to choose for using ?
[03:07] <Rkod> !repeat | Salaveciitis
[03:07] <ubotu> Salaveciitis: 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
[03:07] <CyberMad> what ubuntu variant that use fluxbox
[03:07] <Smashcat> mgedmin: Still, a pretty useless number. I suppose it's always been that way though, but who the hell would care? It'd rather see the number of files in the directory. I can use du if I want to see how much space is being used!
[03:08] <Cromag> 
[03:08] <Cromag> sorry.
[03:09] <Frogzoo> !flubuntu
[03:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about flubuntu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[03:09] <riccardo> hi all
[03:09] <JakeConnor> riccardo: a/s/l?
[03:10] <PriceChild> JakeConnor, not in here...
[03:10] <riccardo> i'm using ubuntu 7.04 and beryl how can i install an object dock on my desktop like i saw in many youtube's videos?
[03:10] <JakeConnor> i know i'm messing around
[03:10] <CyberMad> which one lighter fluxbox or enlightment
[03:10] <CyberMad> which one lighter fluxbox or enlightenment?
[03:10] <stefg> !gnome-dock | riccardo
[03:10] <ubotu> riccardo: gnome-dock is a MacOS X -like dock for the gnome desktop, see www.gnome-dock.org
[03:10] <riccardo> thanks ^^
[03:11] <JakeConnor> what's a "Live CD"?
[03:11] <riccardo> !gnome-dock
[03:11] <Frogzoo> JakeConnor: you can boot off it & run the OS
[03:11] <kraypius2> Guys, i keep trying to run the ati driver installer and it says: Permission Denied. But I am root
[03:12] <alexmax> This just in, mpd that comes with ubuntu feisty is broken on my computer :<
[03:12] <dawn_chorus> JakeConnor, the OS runs right off of the CD.
[03:13] <alexmax> keeps freezing and taking other sound programs with it like flash :<
[03:13] <CheshireViking> JakeConnor, the Ubuntu Live CD is one that you can put in your cd drive, start the computer and it will start Ubuntu using memory only, without it writing anything to your hard disk - ideal for trying it out to see whether your hardware works, if you do, you can click on the desktop icon to install it to your disk
[03:13] <greedo> hello
[03:13] <greedo> i upgraded my system and suddently /dev/hda and /dev/hdb became /dev/sda and /dev/sdb , any workaround for this?
[03:13] <stefg> !uuid | greedo
[03:13] <ubotu> greedo: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[03:14] <riccardo> @ubotu, i opened the link that you post but i'm noob idon't know how can i installi t:(
[03:15] <stefg> riccardo: then better leave it alone, it's complicated to configure and still buggy. BTW ubotu is the channel bot :-)
[03:15] <riccardo> ahah :P
[03:15] <greedo> hmm ok
[03:15] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: i can't seem to find that option.. is there some other way of fixing this?
[03:16] <riccardo> but i saw in many videos that it's working great!
[03:16] <DaveG|> hey, i'm having problems using uim with skype, it just won't type into the damn program... i've followed steps for getting QT4 programs working, i'm running Feisty AMD64.
[03:16] <kraypius2> The ATI installer is asking me for an install path. What should I put?
[03:16] <stefg> riccardo: you won't get it going, has to be compiled from source and is a pita to configure.... no monkey see, monkey do in this case
[03:17] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, not that I myself know of.  I finally broke down and got an nVidia.  maybe ask your question again in a little while or start a thread in the forums.
[03:17] <kraypius2> quit
[03:17] <riccardo> so you think thta it isn't a good idea to install an object dock?
[03:17] <riccardo> that*
[03:18] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: how would I install a new graphics card and how much do think it is?
[03:18] <greedo> stefg: thank you i updated my /etc/fstab. so by now everything should be mounted using uuid right ?
[03:18] <riccardo> also in windows i always used an object dock :S
[03:18] <stefg> greedo: right... make sure that your kernel gets his root-part by uuid, too in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:19] <kraypius> can someone please help me with my ati driver install?
[03:19] <stefg> !ati
[03:19] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:19] <greedo> ok right
[03:19] <greedo> seems to be ok
[03:19] <greedo> thx
[03:19] <kraypius> yeah im on command line right now
[03:19] <xipietotec> riccardo, if you use beryl/compiz at all you'd probably like avant-window-navigator or kiba-dock with 1/2 its options turned off (I recommend AWN personally), there are debian packages available for them
[03:20] <kraypius> stefg, cause i cant get into x
[03:20] <DaveG|> hey, i'm having problems using uim with skype, it just won't type into the damn program... i've followed steps for getting QT4 programs working, i'm running Feisty AMD64. can anyone help at all? :(
[03:20] <kraypius> kind of hard for me to go following links and looking up errors and junk
[03:20] <riccardo> yes im' using beryl and it's working great with my nvidia 6600
[03:21] <stefg> kraypius: sorry don't know about ati (and will not until some decent driver is available)
[03:21] <Salaveciitis> stefg I got an error, while loading the live CD of ubunta :/, showing /etc/rc2.d/s98usplash: 82: clear: Permission denied
[03:21] <xipietotec> riccardo, you'd probably like Avant Window Navigator, google for it and use the debian package.
[03:21] <syz> any1 can say me, which packages i need for compiling C with gcc?
[03:21] <digin4> how can i reset compiz settings to default sirs?
[03:21] <SleepingSloth> kraypius - sorry, coming to this a bit late - what is the problem - X doesnt like your ATI drivers?
[03:21] <xipietotec> digin4, sudo aptitude reinstall compiz-core
[03:22] <tritium> kraypius: sorry, I was away when you asked
[03:22] <riccardo> xipietotec ok i will try to find something thanks ^^
[03:22] <stefg> Salaveciitis: this looks very much like a corrupt disk, or a half broken CD-drive (can also be faulty RAM)
[03:22] <bhouncy> I was wondering if there is a link to a list of compatible hardware for ubuntu? esp graphics cards with motherboards
[03:22] <digin4> xipietotec, hmm thanks :>
[03:22] <xipietotec> digin4, actually scratch that
[03:22] <HymnToLife> bhouncy, anything from nvidia
[03:22] <xipietotec> hold on
[03:22] <Salaveciitis> how can I know, wheres the problem?
[03:22] <HymnToLife> and less than ten years old :p
[03:23] <digin4> xipietotec, okay
[03:23] <bhouncy> HymnToLife, tx.. but someone said the exact opossite last night
[03:23] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, it can run you as low as about $50 or as high as you want to go.  it's easy to install.  put it in, boot into recovery mode, run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and select the vesa driver.  then boot into Ubuntu normally and run the Restricted Drivers Manager.
[03:23] <stefg> Salaveciitis: test yor hardware... the CD has a self check as boot option and a memtest, too
[03:23] <HymnToLife> bhouncy, that someone was wrong, then
[03:23] <DaveG|> :(
[03:23] <xipietotec> digin4, you should have a .compiz I think in your home dir, delete it
[03:23] <digin4> xipietotec, i dont have one :|
[03:23] <xipietotec> bah, this is why I use beryl
[03:23] <bhouncy> HymnToLife, does that mean a motherboard with nvidia chipset too?
[03:24] <digin4> xipietotec, beryl is slow here :<
[03:24] <gordonjcp> kempoller: ems-synthi, eh?
[03:24] <HymnToLife> bhouncy, are we talking about graphics card or about chipsets here ?
[03:24] <markymarkus> what can i use to re-configure my eth0 from a console besides editing interfases file
[03:24] <bhouncy> HymnToLife, both
[03:24] <xipietotec> digin4, then do sudo aptitude reinstall compiz, if that doesn't work, try sudo aptitude purge compiz-core and then aptitude install compiz-core
[03:24] <markymarkus> is there any dpkg-reconfigure thing i can use ncurses based or something like that
[03:24] <HymnToLife> for graphcs cards, nvidia is easily the best for the time being
[03:25] <bhouncy> ok
[03:25] <digin4> kthx xipietotec
[03:25] <HymnToLife> for chipsets, I don't knoh much but I've always been happy with Intel ones
[03:25] <stefg> markymarkus: man ifconfig, and look at /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/iftab
[03:25] <Huffameg> dawn_chorus: it's easy to install even on a laptop..? and that will solve my problem?
[03:25] <meenfreem> hey, I'm having issues getting my monitor speakers to work (ubuntu 6.10 with Acer AL1914)
[03:25] <HymnToLife> or older nForces for AMD CPUs
[03:25] <markymarkus> stefg: dialog-based
[03:25] <HymnToLife> don't know about the newest ones
[03:25] <bhouncy> I've never ever got my 9800pro to work with any linux on 3d
[03:25] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, a laptop eh?
[03:26] <kdubois> meenfreem, do you have other speakers that work?
[03:26] <bhouncy> I have nvidia chipset motherboard
[03:26] <xukun> is it wise to upgrade from ubuntu  fiesty to kubuntu or is it beter to reinstall?
[03:26] <HymnToLife> bhouncy, 9800pro, that's ATi ?
[03:26] <bhouncy> yes
[03:26] <HymnToLife> no wonder you have problems with it, then
[03:26] <xipietotec> xukun, you just want to switch from ubuntu to kubuntu?
[03:26] <bhouncy> but I've had it a while
[03:26] <bhouncy> I'm upgrading soon
[03:26] <HymnToLife> it's comon knowledge that ATi's Linux drivers are poor
[03:26] <bhouncy> ok
[03:26] <bhouncy> ty
[03:26] <CyberMad> is there atomic time sync software on apt-get ?
[03:27] <meenfreem> kdubois, if i plug in my headphones into the speaker outlet they work, so sound is working!
[03:27] <dawn_chorus> Huffameg, i dunno about replacing video cards for laptops.  really go digging into that BIOS of yours to make sure you've got video memory set to max.
[03:27] <kdubois> thats weird. i would guess the speakers are broken/not on....
[03:27] <HymnToLife> CyberMad, atomic ? do you really need femtosecon precision ?
[03:27] <HymnToLife> second*

[03:35] <kraypius> heroin, there are 2 people in it
[03:35] <CyberMad> heroin it's for office use..
[03:35] <primski> !saywhat
[03:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about saywhat - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:35] <heroin> CyberMad: u dont need antivirus either, if u wanne b secure do an online scan once in a while
[03:36] <primski> lol
[03:36] <heroin> kraypius: sorry mate i meant #winehq read the topics next time of chat rooms :D
[03:36] <NeXtDaY> Gnea: a small help... I need to delete a non-empty folder from my Desktop using terminal.. how?
[03:36] <riccardo> please help :S
[03:36] <Gnea> heroin: why would someone not need antivirus?
[03:36] <stefg> lenzzzinoleonard: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsbAdslModem/AccessRunner
[03:36] <primski> Nextday: rm -rf folder
[03:36] <CheshireViking> !virus | Gnea
[03:36] <Gnea> NeXtDaY: rm -rf folder/
[03:36] <ubotu> Gnea: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[03:36] <heroin> NeXtDaY: sudo rm -rf foo
[03:36] <CyberMad> heroin i will install about 9 linux on office, so it's not home use.. still no need of firewall or antivirus?
[03:36] <primski> :)
[03:37] <NeXtDaY> ok thanks Gnea heroin:)
[03:37] <primski> CyberMad, no not really, you probably have firewall on router yes ?
[03:37] <Bassetts> I am trying to use ./configure to install a gaim plugin and it keeps telling me it needs dbus-1 but it seems that in ubuntu it is called dbus, how can i make it used the package dbus instead of dbus-1
[03:37] <Gnea> heroin: that's nice, but it's really BS.
[03:37] <edmon> can some 1 help me with beryl?
[03:37] <CyberMad> primski yes.. i already enable firewall on router
[03:37] <mattack> I have some questions about Thunderbird and mailto: links
[03:37] <Jack_Sparrow> CyberMad: Ubuntu/Linux already has a firewall..
[03:37] <heroin> CyberMad: nope.. if u wanne be secure setup all of them and have a file server perform a virus scan and act as a gateway but linux is much more secure then windows
[03:37] <primski> CyberMad, no need to have one on each machine then
[03:37] <CyberMad> primski thanks.. :) great ubuntu!
[03:38] <heroin> CyberMad: so if u want u can do an online scan once in a while using online java scanners and stuff.. just make sure ur router has a firewall so u can block office workers doing .. bad things :D
[03:38] <edmon> heeey can som 1 help me with beryl?
[03:38] <meenfreem> hey, I'm having issues getting my monitor speakers to work (ubuntu 6.10 with Acer AL1914)
[03:38] <stefg> !beryl | edmaon
[03:38] <ubotu> edmaon: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[03:38] <Bassetts> can no one help me?
[03:38] <Gnea> heroin: linux itself *CAN* get viruses, they've been known to occur. plus, if the system itself is connected to another potential windows system, then files could pass through the linux system infected.
[03:39] <gordonjcp> Gnea: not really
[03:39] <heroin> CyberMad: by default ubuntu has something called iptables which is a firewall, but then a tad diffrent. U should be fine though just make sure port 20 is closed and ssh is not installed, and try to keep as many services stopped as possible
[03:39] <primski> Gnea: there are viruses yes, but not the same as your win got infected will infect linux too
[03:39] <gordonjcp> Gnea: there are no practical viruses for Linux
[03:39] <heroin> Gnea: i have seen kaitens..
[03:39] <CyberMad> heroin ok, thanks a lot..
[03:39] <gordonjcp> Gnea: proof-of-concept viruses exist, but take so much setting up it's not really worth the bother
[03:39] <edmon> heeey can som 1 help me with beryl?
[03:40] <gordonjcp> Gnea: you'd think if anyone really cared they'd package it for apt
[03:40] <stefg> Bassetts: run 'sudo apt-get build-dep gaim' and try again
[03:40] <Kunalagon> what does A LA CATRE MADE in ~/.local/share/applications? desktop configuration file

[03:40] <mattack> Why does thunderbird not open a focused window if I click a mailto: link when it's already open?
[03:40] <SleepingSloth> CyberMad... much as I value the opinion of all the experts in here, I would suggest that basing your business' security policy on the advice of people you don't know and who are not culpable if said security policy fails, is not such a  good idea (I'm really not casting aspersions guys - but you see what I mean...)
[03:40] <riccardo> i have this error: -->riccardo@pc-linux:~/kiba-dock/akamaru$ ./autogen.sh

[03:40] <Bassetts> stefg, it is for a gaim plugin, i have the new version of gaim, pidgin. will that still work?
[03:40] <Gnea> gordonjcp: oh ok, sure: http://www.symantec.com/security_response/writeup.jsp?docid=2004-052312-2729-99
[03:40] <wastrel> it won't play
[03:40] <heroin> CyberMad: yah just read on the internet on howto harden a linux system. And group policy. See linux is secure and safe but nearly all errors and problems are caused by USERS, so make sure SUDO and Root are NOT available for your employees
[03:40] <aoupi> hi, anyone know of a good http proxy server application that is easy to setup and supports encryption?
[03:41] <stefg> Bassetts: i don't use IM, no idea
[03:41] <LOL> HI
[03:41] <CyberMad> ok
[03:41] <heroin> SleepingSloth: opinions from first hand people are still a nice feeling :)
[03:41] <CyberMad> thanks a lot :))
[03:41] <gordonjcp> Gnea: yes, my point exactly
[03:41] <heroin> CyberMad: thank you for choicing linux for your office
[03:41] <gordonjcp> Gnea: you'd have to deliberately go out of your way to compile and run it as a priv'ed user

[03:42] <LOL> How do i request a free CD
[03:42] <PriceChild> !shipit | LOL
[03:42] <ubotu> LOL: shipit is a service that sends free Ubuntu, Kubuntu and Edubuntu CDs. See http://shipit.ubuntu.com/ and http://shipit.kubuntu.org and http://shipit.edubuntu.org - Shipit will send Feisty (7.04) CDs
[03:42] <heroin> Gnea: the most common way to get into a linux system is exploits for ssh vnc and crap.. whereafter bots called kaitens are installed which just open a new hidden ssh connection and mail a person the IP
[03:42] <LOL> thanks
[03:43] <LOL> This can be dual-booted with XP right?
[03:43] <Gnea> heroin: care to inform me of something i don't know?

[03:44] <heroin> SleepingSloth: true :)
[03:44] <Jag100> If i did not request a cd how long would it take to download it?

[03:48] <Jag100> WoW this Softwere is cool
[03:48] <stefg> lenzzzinoleonard: i dont have enough time to walk you through an install... so i can try to clarify if you need to understand certain terms, but i'm not going to solve the problem for you
[03:48] <heroin> Jag100: u should also check out wine if u jsut want to run a .exe or whatever :D
[03:48] <hexidigital> is there a way to find out what *specifically* caused a kernel panic?
[03:49] <hexidigital> i've looked in some logs, and everything *looks* normal
[03:49] <Jag100> Do you have a link to wine?
[03:49] <CheshireViking> !wine | Jag100
[03:49] <ubotu> Jag100: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[03:49] <Sh3r1ff> hexidigital: normally in syslog
[03:49] <heroin> !wine | Jag100
[03:49] <heroin> doh :P
[03:49] <hexidigital> Sh3r1ff:  ok, thanks... unfortunately, i don't see anything there :/
[03:49] <hexidigital> relevant, anyway
[03:49] <Jag100> Thanks for the information im going now :P
[03:50] <Jag100> bye
[03:50] <heroin> Jag100: enjoy your day
[03:50] <CyberMad> ouch.. i don't like fluxbox at all.. :P
[03:50] <CyberMad> very2 bad UI
[03:50] <heroin> CyberMad: cmon mate what dont u like about it? its fast and awsome
[03:50] <Gnea> CyberMad: how is it bad?
[03:50] <qual> how would I troubleshoot the reason nautilus is being such a slow pos
[03:50] <hexidigital> CyberMad:  you just have to configure it :)
[03:50] <Sh3r1ff> hexidigital: what does the kerel panic say?
[03:50] <Gnea> fluxbox is very light, very fast and easy to use :)
[03:50] <heroin> qual: low ram :?
[03:50] <kempoller> gordonjcp: Your skills would have to include time-travel. The ks is not make-able. A's are still about
[03:50] <CyberMad> heroin it just make fast the menu bar.. not speed up load of openoffice, etc
[03:50] <qual> heroin, nope
[03:50] <feiichi> hi.. I have a strange problem.. ubuntu is shutting down by itself..
[03:51] <hexidigital> Sh3r1ff:  it had a list of errors... stuff about address not writable
[03:51] <qual> another thing is system monitor
[03:51] <qual> whenever i click on another tab
[03:51] <hexidigital> Sh3r1ff:  i'm worried it'
[03:51] <hexidigital> ..
[03:51] <qual> its so slow
[03:51] <qual> to get to it
[03:51] <qual> this is a recent thing
[03:51] <Gnea> CyberMad: window managers aren't designed to speed applications up...
[03:51] <Jack_Sparrow> qual: What hardware are you running?
[03:51] <CyberMad> i want to speed up load of firefox, openoffice, etc like thunder hehe
[03:51] <heroin> CyberMad: well fluxbox is low on resources so other applications have more resources available. OpenOffice always takes a while to startup.. on any system
[03:51] <lenzzzinoleonard> stefg:how to extract firm ware from modem driver?
[03:51] <hexidigital> i'm worried it's the RAM, because Memtest+ fails every time i run it, Sh3r1ff
[03:51] <qual> Jack_Sparrow, the same hardware i was running a week or so ago..
[03:51] <CyberMad> ic.. :) but it's ok,..
[03:51] <Gnea> CyberMad: then you need to tweak your kernel settings
[03:51] <qual> athlon xp, 1gb ram
[03:52] <CyberMad> Gnea is that hard to do?
[03:52] <heroin> Gnea: or load everything into ram :P
[03:52] <Sh3r1ff> hexidigital: you have some spare ram layin about to test if that causes it?
[03:52] <mc44> hexidigital: seems rather likely to be your ram
[03:52] <CyberMad> Gnea for noob
[03:52] <Gnea> CyberMad: it could be dangerous
[03:52] <Jack_Sparrow> qual:I take it the problem just started?
[03:52] <CyberMad> Gnea ok, nevermind hehe.. maybe later
[03:52] <qual> Jack_Sparrow, yes
[03:52] <qual> day or 2 ago
[03:52] <hexidigital> Sh3r1ff:  yeah, i have a 256 MB stick... i'd hate to downgrade from 1536 :)
[03:52] <qual> i think i'm going to uninstall ubuntustudio
[03:52] <CyberMad> ok, gtg.. thanks for help me..
[03:52] <qual> its giving me alot of problems
[03:52] <`4aFkA`> can anyone tell me what's the best partition maker?? i want to split my local disk d (60 gb) into 2 disks with 30 gb but i don't want to delete my files??
[03:53] <CyberMad> i will ask many questions again tomorrow hehe
[03:53] <stefg> lenzzzinoleonard: it's described on that page. you need the windows driver CD, find the file containing the firmware and copy that over to your disk... the sequence of commands is written there, you just have to copy them (and maybe adjust the paths)
[03:53] <qual> ubuntustudio people says there is no way it could have caused them
[03:53] <Sh3r1ff> hexidigital: put in every stick one at a time and run memtest to find out which is causing the problem
[03:53] <heroin> `4aFkA`: qtparted or gparted
[03:53] <qual> but its the only thing thats changed
[03:53] <hexidigital> Sh3r1ff:  so far, it was BOTH sticks in here
[03:53] <gordonjcp> kempoller: oh, I don't know...
[03:53] <gordonjcp> kempoller: pm, incidentally ;-
[03:53] <gordonjcp> )
[03:53] <Jack_Sparrow> qual: and the Automatix people say thier software is fine as well..  go figure.
[03:53] <`4aFkA`> heroin thnx, just one more are those programs for free or u need to buy them?
[03:53] <Sh3r1ff> hexidigital: so you don't have a ram stick that passes memtest?
[03:54] <qual> Jack_Sparrow, what is that
[03:54] <lenzzzinoleonard> stefg:i did follow but when i try to compile i get list of erors saying file not found
[03:54] <Jack_Sparrow> qual: Nothing you need.. just an example.. no one will say they have problems..
[03:54] <hexidigital> Sh3r1ff:  not so far.. didn't try the 256 though... another concern is the MB
[03:54] <heroin> `4aFkA`: most apps are free for linux.. just like these.. if ur already using linux u can just apt-get ANYTHING
[03:54] <hexidigital> motherboard, that is
[03:54] <gordonjcp> kempoller: given a circuit diagram or even some notes, I bet I could turn out something pretty close to the KS
[03:54] <qual> Jack_Sparrow, right
[03:54] <qual> i guess its uninstall time then
[03:54] <lenzzzinoleonard> stefg:what do u mean by ajust paths?
[03:54] <Sh3r1ff> hexidigital: try the 256 stick first
[03:55] <qual> i dont have time for this crap
[03:55] <heroin> qual: lol language man
[03:55] <TwigEther> hey all - trying to get ubuntu to boot with root over NFS. Got somewhere, but get a kernel panic: "ipconfig: no devices to configure, /init: .: 1: Can't open /tmp/net-eth0.conf". Anyone got any ideas where I'm going wrong?
[03:55] <hexidigital> this doesn't happen often, but often enough for me to worry
[03:55] <hexidigital> i think this is the 4th time
[03:55] <_Ahti> How can i mount a shared folder from Windows XP running on VMWare Server?
[03:55] <qual> heroin, what.
[03:55] <heroin> TwigEther: something what ur ethernet card i think
[03:55] <heroin> _Ahti: man mount
[03:55] <CyberMad> if you got options: xfce4, fluxbox, enlightenment, icewm,... which one do you recommend?
[03:55] <`4aFkA`> heroin we don't understand each others :) i haven't installed yet the linux i want first to split it and then to install linux..
[03:55] <cr1ss> can someone help me install avant window navigator in ubuntu ?
[03:55] <TwigEther> atm I'm running it in a vmware server thingy just to test it out
[03:56] <TwigEther> heroin: ^^ :)
[03:56] <Gnea> CyberMad: check this: http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/8308
[03:56] <CyberMad> Gnea ok, thanks
[03:56] <heroin> `4aFkA`: well insert the linux CD, and then start gparted or qtparted and u can resize ur harddrives, then u can just install linux on 1 drive.. make sure u defrag
[03:56] <lenzzzinoleonard> stefg: r u there?
[03:57] <TwigEther> heroin: any idea how I get the kernel to load up ethernet drivers before exploding horribly there?
[03:57] <`4aFkA`> heroin thanx a lot! have a nice day bye
[03:57] <heroin> TwigEther: any change or ur ethernet card having gotten out of its socket?
[03:57] <Gnea> there should be a rule against bad spelling :)
[03:57] <heroin> TwigEther: no.. :(
[03:57] <heroin> `4aFkA`: np enjoy
[03:57] <TwigEther> Nope, am running it in vmware
[03:57] <TwigEther> Want to see if I can get it to work before trying on a real machine :)
[03:58] <heroin> TwigEther: ooh.. well then mess w. the settings of vmware? or get dsl which can rune inside windows without vmware :D
[03:58] <xukun> Can I ik burn video dvd using k3b?
[03:58] <heroin> TwigEther: or just install linux and vmware windows ;)
[03:58] <TwigEther> heroin: well, I'm running ubuntu inside of ubuntu ;)
[03:58] <kwtm> Help! I installed Beryl (cool effects!), but I'm not used to it and need to uninstall so I can get some work done quickly, until I have more time to play with Beryl again.  How do I uninstall and go back to the way it was before?
[03:58] <Gnea> CyberMad: there's some really good stuff in part 2 ;)
[03:58] <heroin> TwigEther: O.o ur running a vmware inside a vmware machine?
[03:59] <gordonjcp> kwtm: you can change your wm back to metacity
[03:59] <TwigEther> noooes, got this machine (ubuntu) running vmware with a dualboot windows/ubuntu server (Which I want to do / over NFS on)0
[03:59] <heroin> TwigEther: ok i cant help u
[03:59] <TwigEther> ok, thanks anyways :)
[03:59] <kwtm> gordonjcp: How do I do that?  I was using KDE before.  Is that the kwin manager?  Do I just "sudo apt-get install kwin" (or metacity or whatever?)
[04:00] <stefg> lenzzzinoleonard: here's another guide
[04:00] <gordonjcp> oh, don't know for KDE
[04:00] <stefg> lenzzzinoleonard: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallCxacruDriver
[04:00] <kwtm> gordonjcp: How do you do it for GNOME/metacity?
[04:00] <heroin> kwtm: when u startup cant u select what kind of session u want?
[04:00] <gordonjcp> kwtm: in gnome there's a little red diamond thing up beside your clock
[04:00] <IdleOne> kwtm, try asking in #ubuntu-effects
[04:01] <kwtm> IdleOne: Will try, thanks!
[04:01] <kwtm> heroin: Not sure how to do that -- is that in the login screen?
[04:01] <xukun> I have a video file of 4.8GB how can I burn this on a dvd?
[04:01] <kwtm> gordonjcp: When you say red diamond thing, do you mean when I have Beryl installed?  I couldn't see where I could set my window manager in Beryl.
[04:01] <heroin> kwtm: yes
[04:01] <xukun> which is 4.7GB
[04:01] <brussel> Anybody have recommendations for a USB 8GB U3 memory stick?
[04:02] <kwtm> heroin: Will try.
[04:02] <gordonjcp> kwtm: I probably can't help much, I don't use KDE
[04:02] <Gnea> xukun: compress it
[04:02] <[DeAdMaN] > 357
[04:02] <heroin> kwtm: u might want to ask in #kubuntu
[04:02] <kwtm> gordonjcp: I'll take GNOME advice happily.
[04:02] <xukun> Gnea, can u give me which docs I can read?
[04:02] <kwtm> heroin: People don't respond as easily in #kubuntu. :P

[04:11] <brussel> well, one woman for me is enough, but it has to be the right woman. that's a big problem...
[04:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Anyone with a real Ubuntu question..
[04:11] <Gnea> Ropechoborra: use grep and cat or gpm
[04:11] <smcgraw> YES, I have a real question
[04:11] <smcgraw> but not Ubuntu specific
[04:12] <Jack_Sparrow> close enough
[04:12] <Ropechoborra> Gnea how would that be?
[04:12] <brussel> yes jack_sparrow, i want a usb stick, 8gb, U3 compliant, that plays very nicely with ubuntu
[04:12] <rinky3> anyone know how I can tell what services (daemons) are currently running on ubuntu 6.06 dapper?
[04:12] <smcgraw> Ok Captain Jack, the other day I could not login to my machine
[04:12] <Gnea> grep pasword /boot/grub/menu.lst | awk '{print $2}' > file.txt
[04:12] <smcgraw> turns out, I run df -h

[04:12] <smcgraw> and my / is 100%
[04:12] <smcgraw> where do I go to free up space?
[04:12] <Dr_willis> smcgraw,  /var/cache/apt is one place.
[04:13] <heroin> smcgraw: your homedir
[04:13] <Ropechoborra> Gnea wow, i got no idea about that :S

[04:13] <Gnea> smcgraw: apt-get clean
[04:13] <rinky3> smcgraw: /tmp/?
[04:13] <Dr_willis> smcgraw,  and how big is this HD?
[04:13] <smcgraw> /var/log isn't much either
[04:13] <smcgraw> that partition is 15g
[04:13] <heroin> smcgraw: remove gnome and install fluxbox
[04:13] <Ropechoborra> Gnea no, thats for copying the password located in menu.lst but i want to cpy the new password To the menu.lst
[04:14] <Gnea> Ropechoborra: in english: look in the menu.lst file for any lines that contain password, show only the second item (which is the password hash itself) and copy it to file.txt
[04:14] <heroin> smcgraw: and start removing openoffice programs u dont need and remove GIPM the silly ubuntu games..

[04:18] <ph1ll> goood afternoon all
[04:18] <xukun> Gnea, was that the wrongs answer of you question too?
[04:18] <crimsun> zerro: please read http://www.linux-sound.info/alsa/index.php?task=support and tell me the URL of the paste generated by the alsa-info.sh script linked from that page.
[04:18] <ph1ll> hey steve
[04:18] <steven-laptop> hello
[04:19] <Gnea> xukun: hrm, k3b might work.. or gnomebaker
[04:19] <ph1ll> anyways, i have a real head scratcher of a question, ive spent 2 weeks onm this one thing so would really appreciate some guidance
[04:19] <heroin> ph1ll: more asking questions less saying hallo then :P
[04:19] <Johto> :D
[04:19] <incorrect> i would like a pretty little mysql gui editor, what can i apt-get install ?
[04:20] <zenlinuxNH> Is the latest kernel update responsible for changing my PATA drive device from /dev/hda to /dev/sdc???
[04:20] <zenlinuxNH> Fiesty
[04:20] <Johto> zenlinuxNH: yes
[04:20] <ph1ll> just trying to be friendlly dude, did'nt want to seem un grateful
[04:20] <mc44> zenlinuxNH: yes
[04:20] <scales11> hello all, i am curious how i check the driver version of my madwifi drivers
[04:20] <bulmer> incorrect: what do you like to edit on mysql?
[04:20] <heroin> ph1ll: i know :) but im wondering what ur questions i now
[04:20] <smcgraw> it should not be close to full
[04:20] <ph1ll> well....
[04:20] <caner> heroin: there seem a path starting with "/org" which even doesnt exist in my system. i think there must be another and perhaps easier way to find the path of it??
[04:20] <Johto> zenlinuxNH: many have had problems with -16 kernel, so i would recommend to stay using version 15 if possible :)
[04:20] <zenlinuxNH> I wish I knew that before I started writing to /dev/sdc, thinking it was my external CF card reader
[04:20] <smcgraw> i should not have to remove apps?
[04:20] <ph1ll> just give us a minute to type it out
[04:20] <xukun> Gnea, k3b asks for dual layer dvd
[04:21] <heroin> caner: well if u remove or connect it its at the end of the log
[04:21] <Johto> zenlinuxNH: there is a long thread about this "foobared" kernel update..
[04:21] <heroin> smcgraw: how large is your home directory?
[04:21] <zenlinuxNH> Johnto: thanks, I'll add my two cents there
[04:21] <scales11> crdlb: you around?
[04:21] <Johto> my home directory is "only" 460Gigs :)
[04:21] <caner> yes i looked exactly there heroin
[04:21] <bulmer> scales11: look in /lib/firmware/`uname -r`/  see if you can make sense of the numbers
[04:22] <heroin> caner: and it didnt state it? >.> tahts really weird
[04:22] <Johto> zenlinuxNH: yeah, you should find that thread under "install and upgrade"
[04:22] <mc44> zenlinuxNH: that being changed has nothing to do with broken kernel updates
[04:22] <mc44> zenlinuxNH: thats a feature
[04:23] <Johto> yeah, but that -16 kernel is foobar otherwise too...
[04:23] <caner> heroin it stated but it is a quite interesting path starting with "/org/freedesktop/Hal" you must be definitely right but i cant understand why gives that path?
[04:23] <mc44> Johto: possibly, but irrelevant here
[04:23] <Johto> mc44: true
[04:23] <mc44> Johto: anyway there is a newer -16 which should fix some problems :P
[04:23] <demonspork> I wish they wouldn't make so many small kernel updates, I have to reinstall my graphics driver every time with my 8800GTS
[04:23] <heroin> caner: no it should be /dev/foo
[04:23] <calc> zerro: any information yet?
[04:24] <ph1ll> i frormatted my hdd because winxp sp2 got trashed due to partition magic, i tried to re install windows from cd but as its not an official copy of win xp (slaps wrist) it wont boot normally but uses dr dos as a boot os, win xp wont install becuase smart drive is missing and i cant load it, im now using ubuntu breezy badger on live cd and from a x24 speed cd rom, its not really humping along as it should, but rather having
[04:24] <ph1ll> an asthma attack. anyway, i cant install win xp because of smart drive and i cant install ubuntu as its just a live cd, how can i get win xp or ubuntu on the hdd of my laptop?
[04:24] <zerro> crimsun: the aplay -l says that it is HDA Intel ALC883 Analog
[04:24] <ph1ll> sorry its long but explains it all
[04:24] <heroin> caner: but what happens when u mount /org... ~/mnt ?
[04:24] <crimsun> zerro: I really need that url.
[04:24] <stefg> demonspork: why not just use the driver from restricted-modules?
[04:24] <Johto> mc44: well, yes i noticed, but my nvidia-drivers went berserk, i bet i should have install it again, and also vmware configure..so i did not bother, installed it, but edited grubs menu.lst back to using -15 as default :)
[04:24] <mc44> ph1ll: download a newer ubuntu cd?
[04:24] <caner> heroin : there is not a /org folder in my system
[04:25] <june_> r there anyone has used mac?
[04:25] <ph1ll> i cant burn cds
[04:25] <Johto> mac as apple ?
[04:25] <mc44> Johto: you probably have the wrong version of linux-restricted-modules or something
[04:25] <june_> yes
[04:25] <zerro> calc: the aplay -l says that it is HDA Intel ALC883 Analog
[04:25] <heroin> caner: O.o ok i managed to get me confused from the other end of the world.. i wouldnt know then
[04:25] <ph1ll> i have no foloppy drive either
[04:25] <scales11> bulmer: i dont know exactly what i am looking for
[04:25] <mc44> ph1ll: well you can't install from the breezy live cd either
[04:25] <ph1ll> sorry for the typos
[04:25] <Johto> mc44: yeah, but neverthelsess, i dont gain anything curently with -16 so it doesnt matter :P
[04:25] <ph1ll> i know this
[04:25] <zerro> crimsun: http://www.linux-sound.info/alsa/scripts/output.txt
[04:25] <ph1ll> hence the problem
[04:26] <crimsun> zerro: no, download the alsa-info.sh script, and run it.
[04:26] <heroin> ph1ll: google installing ubuntu live cd to harddisk? perhaps tehre is a way..
[04:26] <caner> heroin: anyway thanks for your interest i will try to search more
[04:26] <zerro> ahh oki
[04:26] <crimsun> zerro: it will give you a url, which you're supposed to tell us.
[04:26] <mc44> ph1ll: you can order a CD and get it mailed to you for free :)
[04:26] <TheVault> What is the difference between wine & wine-doors?
[04:26] <heroin> caner: if i were u i would disconnect it once again and check the log again
[04:26] <fulhack> Hello. I'm looking to connect my old laptop to some sort of network between that laptop and another computer, to transfer files, etc. The laptop has no ethernet, but has a printer port (DB25). Can I connect the two PCs with a male-to-male DB25 somehow?
[04:26] <heroin> mc44: mailing takes for ever
[04:26] <june_> i like use F9 and F10 and F12 in mac , can ubuntu do it ?
[04:26] <calc> hmm interesting that a laptop would have an ALC883 in it that is a 7.1+2 codec
[04:26] <ph1ll> i've tried it , ive tried the software bank thing on ubunbtu and nothing there, ive tried hack sites, google, ask, and ubuntu forums but nothing
[04:27] <heroin> june_: what do those buttons do?
[04:27] <mc44> heroin: well, hardly forever, but it does take a few weeks yes
[04:27] <Johto> june_: F9 thingy f you use beryl
[04:27] <Johto> if
[04:27] <caner> heroin: ok i will try a fifth time :)
[04:27] <Johto> too bad beryl is still pretty unstable
[04:27] <usuario> GSuS19
[04:27] <mc44> ph1ll: you've tried what?
[04:27] <ph1ll> it took a month last time to recieve the cds
[04:27] <varka> fulhack: google for "plip"
[04:27] <heroin> ph1ll: ok download and burn a cd using the live cd? if its runs outa ram or something get damnsmalllinux or something
[04:27] <heroin> caner: fifth time is the charm!
[04:27] <mc44> heroin: he can't burn cds,,,
[04:28] <june_> F9 can display all windows that you have opend.
[04:28] <ph1ll> i have no access to a cd burner
[04:28] <TheVault> what is the difference between Wine & Wine-Doors?
[04:28] <Johto> i would surely use OSX if anyting ..only if i had enough money for Mac ..OSX is soo nice :)
[04:28] <heroin> ph1ll: why do u only have a live cd?
[04:28] <mc44> ph1ll: then you need to get access to one or to order a cd
[04:28] <heroin> ph1ll: mc44 is right
[04:28] <heroin> ph1ll: u have a USB stick?
[04:28] <mc44> ph1ll: you can install from a usb stick too
[04:28] <TwigEther> Network install using a floppy disk? :o
[04:28] <mc44> heroin:  :)
[04:28] <ph1ll> install cd got abused by the cat
[04:29] <stefg> ph1ll: there's not much you can do with a breezy Live CD except just run it. if you have a USB-thumbdrive (1GB minimum) and some knowledge you could use that to download a newer ubuntu version and install from there
[04:29] <heroin> TwigEther: no floppy either
[04:29] <TwigEther> boo
[04:29] <june_> the upgrade is still going,it has gone 4h
[04:29] <ph1ll> no usb stick,
[04:29] <heroin> ph1ll: or use a USB stick to install a small linux distro like damn small linux or puppy linux
[04:29] <ph1ll> small problems causing a big one
[04:29] <anandanbu> Help needed in configuring the fonts in Ubuntu 7.04
[04:30] <ph1ll> is there a hdd boot thingy for linux which would make my hdd a boot disk with ms dos?
[04:30] <stefg> ph1ll: so you could try the debootstrap-method... but that's not for the faint hearted
[04:30] <stefg> !install
[04:30] <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
[04:30] <soundray> ph1ll: try running gpart or testdisk from the live CD. Maybe you can fix your partition table.
[04:30] <heroin> stefg: dude.. thats not even a real suggestion :P
[04:30] <DJ-_-> !automate
[04:30] <ubotu> Ways to automate installation of Ubuntu on multiple machines are described at https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/installation-guide/i386/automatic-install.html - See also !cloning
[04:31] <DJ-_-> !cloning
[04:31] <ubotu> To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type  dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages , move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type  sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade  - See also !automate
[04:31] <ph1ll> and im sure they would all be very useful.........if i had the install cd
[04:31] <heroin> ph1ll: u dont have a usb stick?
[04:32] <ph1ll> the bad thing is i had a bundle of ubuntu packs which i threw away the dy before the cat got the cda
[04:32] <heroin> ph1ll:  threw away? O.o perhaps u deserve this problem
[04:32] <aangulo> lolaa
[04:32] <zerro> i get a error when i try to run the script .. :S
[04:33] <anandanbu> does anybody know how to restore the original fonts in the ubuntu 7.04
[04:33] <ph1ll> know man, no usb stick, never needed one before
[04:33] <heroin> ph1ll: where the hell do u live?
[04:33] <ph1ll> and yeah, i think my kharma was off or something the day i decided to fix this thing
[04:33] <mc44> ph1ll: you can't get access to a CD burner or a usb stick? perhaps there is an ubuntu LoCo close to you who can help you out
[04:34] <demonspork> stefg, about my driver, the restricted driver doesnt work with the nvidia 8800 series graphics cards
[04:34] <heroin> ph1ll: u live in london?

[04:39] <ROnewbie> HI all; I need some help getting my wireless card to connect; it is installed, and it sees all the networks in the area, but it won't connect to any of them. Please help - I've been trying to solve this on my own for about a month now, and I really don't want to have to choose between returning to XP and using my laptop just as a desktop. I'm running Feisty on an MSI S271X laptop, with a Ralink RT61 wireless card.
[04:39] <ShinSR71> navets : is this about running warcraft 3 in linux?
[04:39] <navets> ShinSR71: yes
[04:39] <gilo1> !pidgin
[04:39] <ubotu> pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It wasn't released in time for Feisty. Expect it in gutsy. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info.
[04:40] <heroin> navets: type glxinfo | grep "direct rendering"
[04:40] <TuTuFF> would anyone know the ubuntu equivalent of 75-persistent-net-generator.rules or how such a file might be generated please?
[04:40] <heroin> afk
[04:40] <sigaris> a
[04:40] <navets> glxinfo | grep "direct rendering"
[04:40] <navets> in konsol?
[04:40] <soundray> ROnewbie: I got a RT61 to work. It's a bit involved though...
[04:40] <navets> I mean in a terminal?
[04:41] <ShinSR71> yes
[04:41] <navets> it says yes
[04:41] <ROnewbie> soundray: oh... please share
[04:41] <heroin> navets:  yes in consule
[04:41] <TuTuFF> or alternatively this file --> /etc/udev/rules.d/z25_persistent-net.rules which defines interface naming?
[04:41] <navets> everything works normally if i dont open it using opengl but it is super choppy
[04:41] <heroin> navets: urm well opengl shouldnt be a problem
[04:41] <navets> heroin: it says direct rendering: yes
[04:42] <ROnewbie> soundray: I've been trying to figure it out for 4 weeks now, it's really annoying. Especially since the reason I bought this laptop was the supposed perfect compatibility with linux
[04:42] <heroin> navets: ok use a terminal, change to the drive_c/Pr.../warcraft3 folder
[04:42] <heroin> then just wine war3.exe
[04:42] <heroin> with -opengl
[04:42] <heroin> and read the errors in terminal
[04:42] <soundray> ROnewbie: first of all: Network Manager and nm-applet are incompatible with all RT61 drivers that I know of.
[04:43] <ROnewbie> ok; that explains a lot
[04:44] <navets> heroin: err:ole:CoCreateInstance apartment not initialised
[04:44] <ROnewbie> soundray: ok, that explains a lot.
[04:44] <soundray> ROnewbie: second: the stock ubuntu driver is outdated enough that it's worth going to the serialmonkey project download site, get the legacy CVS driver and compile it for your system.
[04:44] <heroin> navets: u mind joining #winehq iam not an expert at wine..
[04:44] <navets> heroin: sure
[04:44] <soundray> ROnewbie: once I had compiled that, and configured it without roaming (via Sys-Admin-Network), it started to work.
[04:45] <Cenobyte> Can anyone help me?  I can't get Ubuntu or any other distro to work in graphics mode.  As soon as it tries to load x.org the monitor goes into power save mode and the system hangs.
[04:45] <soundray> ROnewbie: are you on amd64 or i386
[04:45] <soundray> ?
[04:45] <ROnewbie> soundray: aa ... sounds a little complicated  to me ... mind the "newbie" / i386
[04:45] <Cenobyte> The live CD doesn't work either so I can't even install in graphics mode
[04:45] <dyrne> Cenobyte: you using the vesa (generic) driver?
[04:45] <Cenobyte> Yes
[04:45] <Cenobyte> Didn't work
[04:46] <ROnewbie> soundray: but I have a question - if I uninstall network manager and/or the roaming mode, how can I connect to other wireless networks than mine ?
[04:46] <dyrne> Cenobyte: lcd monitor?
[04:46] <Cenobyte> Yes
[04:46] <Cenobyte> With a DVI connection to an ATI radeon x1800xt
[04:46] <dyrne> Cenobyte: probably need to edit xorg and put in nativ resolution for the monitor. its at the bottom of the file under depth 24. id say everything works monitor is just out of range
[04:47] <rambo3> ROnewbie, you don't uninstall just disable
[04:47] <TheVault> Wheres the location of the grub menu so I can get rid of the previous headers I think they are called
[04:47] <ROnewbie> rambo3: well ok, then how do I connect to other networks ?
[04:47] <dyrne> Cenobyte: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf  it will try res from left to right like "1024x768" "800x600"
[04:47] <TheVault> My grub menu is like really long
[04:47] <Cenobyte> The thing is, I've even tried using other live-cd's (systemrescuecd) and they don't work either, even if I set the res to my monitor's native.
[04:47] <anandanbu> Can someone help me out as how can i get my old fonts back in Ubuntu 7.04
[04:48] <dyrne> Cenobyte: put native res and remove anything to left of it
[04:48] <dyrne> Cenobyte: oh
[04:48] <ROnewbie> soundray: are you still here ?
[04:48] <soundray> ROnewbie: when you go through Sys-Admin-Network and set the ESSID, there is a dropdown list that shows all available networks that broadcast theirs.
[04:48] <dyrne> hmm
[04:48] <rambo3> TheVault, use synaptic or dpkg -l | grep linux-headers-
[04:48] <Cenobyte> It worked on my system before I upgraded my MB, CPU and RAM.
[04:49] <dyrne> Cenobyte: try a google search like site:ubuntuforums.org monitormodel
[04:49] <TheVault> rambo3: I wanna edit the file itself
[04:49] <soundray> ROnewbie: which kernel version do you have?
[04:49] <soundray> ROnewbie: check with uname -a
[04:49] <zipper> after recovering Grub (after installing windows) i'm getting this error when starting up: http://cpp.sourceforge.net/?show=37207. Also says something about "apt-get not installed. Run apt-get install apt to get it"
[04:49] <sivaji2009> i wrote a shell program which create a copy of its own in a infinite loop will this prog affect  my ram ?
[04:50] <rambo3> TheVault, gksudo gedit  /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:50] <ROnewbie> soundray: oohh ...jesus, you've got to be kidding me! than I got this piece for nothing! / 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP Thu Jun 7 20:19:32 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[04:50] <TheVault> rambo3: Thank you
[04:50] <Cenobyte> Before I upgraded, the live-cd's would work which leads me to believe it is not video card or monitor related.
[04:50] <technel> I just reinstalled Ubuntu and for some reason it's not letting me install gvim...it says there is no such package. I am pretty sure I have installed it before like this...what's up?
[04:51] <LjL> zipper: thank you, that apt-get error just made my day
[04:51] <zipper> LjL, heh, mine too. Although seeing it for the 20th time makes me kindda sad =/
[04:51] <ROnewbie> soundray: Are there any other NM-like programs that work? I thought of the possibility of something being wrong with the NM a couple of weeks ago, and I also installed this thing called Wi-Fi radar ... it at least showed signal strength for each network, so I'm guessing that's a step forward.
[04:51] <LjL> zipper, it would seem, aside from the APT thing, that your GRUB is looking at the wrong partition... can you reach a shell where you can type "blkid"?
[04:52] <sivaji2009> LjL : i wrote a shell program which create a copy of its own in a infinite loop will this prog affect  my ram ?
[04:53] <zipper> LjL, the funny thing is, at that point i enter a maintenance shell (with like, 0 commands available). If i just logout from that, the system continues booting (i'm in X right now)
[04:53] <soundray> ROnewbie: don't panic. Chances are that the next version of ubuntu will have a driver/nm combination that works. You did pick the right laptop, RT61 has a good chance of getting over the current issues.
[04:53] <zipper> LjL, let me check the output of blkid
[04:53] <LjL> sivaji2009: define "affect".
[04:53] <taime1> is there a command that will tell me how much memory is in my machine?
[04:53] <Toma-> 'free'
[04:53] <sivaji2009> LjL damage
[04:54] <zipper> LjL, blkid output : http://cpp.sourceforge.net/?show=37208
[04:54] <LjL> zipper: i don't quite understand how you can boot X with, apparently, a completely broken filesystem... weird
[04:54] <LjL> sivaji2009: not physically
[04:54] <mc44> LjL: A transitive verb meaning to influence
[04:54] <ROnewbie> soundray: thanks for the encouragement. BTW, is this page of any help? I tried following the 2nd option there ... no results.
[04:54] <Myrtti> plirp
[04:54] <zipper> LjL, me neither.... but it seems like i can.
[04:54] <ROnewbie> soundray: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-132980.html
[04:54] <Toxyc> bye
[04:55] <zipper> LjL, think the settings might be right, and the filesystem alright, but the UUID might've been changed after installing windows?
[04:55] <ROnewbie> soundray: but to go back to NM, are there any substitutes that you know of ?
[04:55] <sivaji2009> LjL that prog spreads across ram at one stage ram will not have any empty space what will happen in this situation
[04:56] <zipper> sivaji2009, it will probably start using your swap partition
[04:56] <LjL> zipper, i have no idea, but you likely have the wrong UUID in fstab and/or GRUB anyway
[04:56] <fulhack> I have an old external floppy driver here that I connect through an LPT/DB25 port, how can I use it in ubuntu?
[04:57] <technel> I just reinstalled Ubuntu and for some reason it's not letting me install gvim...it says there is no such package. I am pretty sure I have installed it before like this...what's up?
[04:57] <zipper> LjL, you know of any way to fix that then? Is UUID even necessary?
[04:57] <LjL> sivaji2009: the swap will start filling up. your system will start thrashing. eventually, the kernel will invoke the Out Of Memory killer to elect some processes that will have to be terminated. meanwhile, calls to malloc() may fail and programs not checking malloc() return value may crash.
[04:57] <elkbuntu> sivaji2009, forkbombs do tend to use up all available ram and cpu, yes
[04:57] <zipper> techjim, you sure you have the required repositories? (multiverse? Universe?)
[04:57] <tck> the feisty built in bt torrent client, how does one restart that after a reboot
[04:57] <LjL> zipper, it's not necessary, but it's recommended to use them. you simply need to edit your fstab -- if you can invoke an editor -- and put the right UUID. pastebin your fstab if you can please
[04:57] <demonspork> tck, simply find the .torrent file and open it again
[04:58] <tck> well its not as simple as that
[04:58] <tck> they are in a folder with two files
[04:58] <sivaji2009> zipper swap memory will have only unused page but here everything is running parallely
[04:58] <zipper> LjL, hang on
[04:58] <tck> you know how torrents can be like that
[04:58] <cuteharez> hi
[04:58] <demonspork> tck, the bit torrent client automatically detects a partially downloaded torrent so as long as you direct it to the right place, it should resume
[04:58] <cuteharez> i need help here
[04:59] <cuteharez> i have install avg anti-virus
[04:59] <tck> demonspork, i have gnome-btdownload but when i browse to file it doesn't handle it too well
[04:59] <cuteharez> but i can't do updates
[04:59] <zipper> LjL, fstab: http://cpp.sourceforge.net/?show=37209
[05:00] <sivaji2009> elkbuntu what is that forkbombs
[05:00] <zbrown> cuteharez: installed antivirus?
[05:00] <cuteharez> AVG
[05:00] <scales11> ok anyone else know how to check my current wireless drivers?  i want to know what version and which i am using?
[05:00] <himuraken> AVG under Ubuntu?
[05:00] <elkbuntu> sivaji2009, a forkbomb is precisely what you have described
[05:00] <himuraken> No way
[05:00] <sivaji2009> elkbuntu ho ic
[05:00] <cuteharez> its under linux
[05:00] <zbrown> cuteharez: why?
[05:00] <elkbuntu> sivaji2009, feel free to pastebin your creation and PM me the url, and i'll see if that's what it is
[05:00] <_Ahti> Argh! How do i share files between my VMWare Window XP and Ubuntu!???
[05:00] <demonspork> tck, I mainly use ktorrent and bittornadoe

[05:00] <schilling> _Ahti
[05:00] <ROnewbie> soundray: ?
[05:00] <sivaji2009> elkbuntu wait
[05:01] <sivaji2009> !pastebin
[05:01] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[05:01] <michael__> how can i find my usergroup?
[05:01] <dyrne> _Ahti: same as any other computer ssh or ftp or samba use the virtual machines gateway to connect to the actual host machine
[05:01] <wapetona> ola
[05:01] <wastrel> michael__:  groups   it's a command   you're in more than one user group
[05:01] <LjL> zipper, the bad entry is the one that mounts to /mnt/mofo - i'm not sure why that would affect anything else, though
[05:01] <wastrel> michael__:  default is the same as your username
[05:01] <dyrne> _Ahti: that is if youre using nat
[05:02] <zipper> LjL, how can you be sure thats the faulty one? I would guess it was /dev/sda2 ( / ) that was messing up
[05:02] <_Ahti> dyrne: Nope, bridge
[05:02] <shiester_miester> does anyone know of any good, simple network monitoring software for ubuntu?  like just a little, discreet graph of network activity
[05:02] <zipper> shiester_miester, you can try out "iptraf"
[05:02] <LjL> zipper, because /etc/fstab gives it a UUID of 'UUID=d246bd62-ef7d-4e03-bfa0-3d1014bd3598', which is the one that http://cpp.sourceforge.net/?show=37207 complains about, and that UUID doesn't exist (it's not reported by blkid)
[05:03] <zipper> ah
[05:03] <zipper> so i need to use blkid to get the right UUID and then use that instead
[05:03] <zipper> i see
[05:03] <zipper> thanks

[05:03] <LjL> zipper: you should change it into the right one, but i'm not sure what the right one is, since the comment in fstab says it was the partition /dev/sda4, but that partition doesn't quite seem to exist anymore
[05:03] <cuteharez> Is there any shortcut keys for ubuntu
[05:04] <zipper> LjL, ahhh... no. My windows installation made /dev/sda4 an extended partition, and moved the "real" partition to /dev/sda5
[05:04] <mc44> cuteharez: system -> prefereneces -> keyboard shortcuts
[05:04] <zipper> LjL, it seems like that anyway
[05:04] <cuteharez> oh ok thanks
[05:05] <shiester_miester> zipper, i took a look at iptraf, but its console based
[05:06] <LjL> zipper: just make sure that every UUID in fstab matches 1) and existing partition, and 2) the *right* partition, as reported by blkid.  if you still have GRUB problems after that, check /boot/grub/menu.lst for bad UUIDs, as well.  if you still have APT problems or such, we'll have to investigate further i suppose
[05:06] <zipper> shiester_miester, you said "simple" :)
[05:06] <joel_> ne
[05:06] <shiester_miester> i also said "discreet"
[05:06] <LinuxHelp> Wheres a turorial to convert a single disk setup to a raid 1 setup? I've just added a new hard drive

[05:07] <zipper> LjL, thanks, i'll try fixing the UUID's
[05:08] <taime1> help, i have no sound
[05:08] <shiester_miester> its a little graph, thats all.  it displays upload/download trends, along with max speeds etc
[05:08] <LjL> zipper: the one for the root partition looks right (assuming it's still /dev/sda2), so i'm still puzzled by the command not found errors... but try.
[05:08] <kam2> hey guys i got again some questions :  i want to open xorg.conf and alter Identifier  and BusID under the section "Device" how can i find out what to write there?

[05:09] <Dr_willis> Identifier is just a name.. could be anything i recall.
[05:09] <navets> heroin: are you still here?
[05:09] <Dr_willis> but the identifier needs to match up with the other places in the file that refer to iut.
[05:10] <taime1> can someone help me get sound working on laptop?
[05:10] <kam2> can someone pls help?
[05:10] <zipper> LjL, while we're at it, any way to make grub automaticly detect my windows installation and add it to menu.lst ?
[05:11] <elkbuntu> sivaji2009, yep, that's a forkbomb
[05:11] <elkbuntu> sivaji2009, read: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fork_bomb
[05:11] <LjL> sivaji2009, i think i answered that question in any case. yes, there is something in the kernel, and it's called the Out Of Memory (OOM) killer. however, it can easily get it wrong -- especially with forkbombs --, and during the time when the memory actually *is* full, attempts to allocate memory by other programs will fail, which usually has very unwanted consequences.  you can use /etc/security/limits.conf, however, to try and limit what a process can do
[05:12] <LjL> zipper: sorry, i don't really know. it does it by default when you install Ubuntu, but i know what what is doing that, so i don't know how to reproduce it if you install Windows *after* Ubuntu

[05:12] <GigaClon> uh my computer keeps killing my swap partition
[05:13] <Dr_willis> clarify 'kill'
[05:13] <sivaji2009> LjL        zipper    elkbuntu     thank u
[05:13] <CarlFK> what do I apt-get/whatever to run this little snipped of code:  http://search.cpan.org/~reden/Db-Ctree-1.1/Ctree.pm
[05:13] <soundray> ROnewbie: I don't know of any. Also, I don't quite see what's wrong with the solution I suggested.
[05:14] <zipper> LjL, okay, no worries. Guess i'll have to get my hands dirty and add it myself
[05:14] <roelof> xshat-gnome
[05:14] <GigaClon> Dr_willis, when I reboot my computer, there will be no swap space availble
[05:14] <burzum> hi
[05:14] <Dr_willis> GigaClon,  check your fstab for a proper swap entry?
[05:14] <kkdoc> Hi folks, any suggestions why openoffice.org is not willing to render itc officina sans correct, although gnome applications are able to.
[05:15] <LjL> zipper: probably not a good idea. whenever there is a kernel update, menu.lst gets automatically rewritten... so you'd lose your Windows entry every time, i'm afraid. you'll have to find some Ubuntu-specific (and not just GRUB-generic) documentation i think.
[05:15] <GigaClon> Dr_willis, there is a proper swap entry
[05:15] <burzum> is ubuntu 6.06 server not able to boot from a SATA drive!? ive installed grub but it never boots, its like theres no bootloader.
[05:15] <Dr_willis> GigaClon,  so 'swapon' acttivates it?
[05:15] <ROnewbie> soundray: well, your solution is fine, and thanks for it; the only thing is that I'm not very familiar with 75%of the things you described; I only switched to linux 2 months ago
[05:15] <roelof> xchat-gnome -- help
[05:16] <zipper> LjL, but then again, how often is there a kernel update? Anyway, i believe grub-update only ADDS stuff to menu.lst, never replace.
[05:16] <chazco> hi... can anyone tell me the results of "ls libgto*" inside /usr/lib on 7.04 ?
[05:16] <Matic`Makovec> Is there any other tool next to GIMP that has similar/same use?
[05:16] <taime1> can someone please help me get sound back on my laptop, thanks :)
[05:16] <zipper> chazco, "libgtop-2.0.so.7  libgtop-2.0.so.7.0.0"
[05:17] <chazco> thanks zipper
[05:17] <zipper> np
[05:17] <LjL> zipper: nope, afraid it replaces it - at least some of it. (for instance, i have to use "noapic" for Ubuntu not to crash on my system, and if i just naively add it to the kernel command line, it gets removed on updates)
[05:17] <alaQ> Mat
[05:17] <MystaMax> I've got a problem w/ dependencies. I just ran aptitude, hit 'g' and it listed a bunch of KDE packages, I'm not sure why. How do I find out why those packages are going to be installed
[05:17] <zipper> LjL, hmpf, i see.
[05:17] <ROnewbie> soundray: for instance, how do I compile something ?
[05:17] <gonzoism> hi.  i was trying to generate a 21 character password in ubuntu and can't figure out how to do it.   seems like i used to just use like:  mkpasswd -n 21    when i was in $LFS but this doesn't seem to work now.  anyone know ?
[05:17] <LjL> zipper: there are commented-out lines in menu.lst that should be modified (while *keeping* them commented out!) for that sort of things -- not sure if you can use those same line to add a whole OS to grub, though
[05:17] <alaQ> Matic`Makovec: Krita (KDE-based), other than that.... Photoshop?
[05:18] <soundray> ROnewbie: give me a minute pls
[05:18] <GigaClon> Dr_willis, yeah its there for swaponing but it doesn't get loaded at boot
[05:18] <GUARDiAN|office> hi... which audioplayer is able to write music to my ipod shuffle (2nd gen) and also to update the database?
[05:18] <zipper> LjL, i'll try to dig up some documentation, thanks
[05:18] <Andeh> Hi
[05:18] <soundray> ROnewbie: (I have to get some work done while we chat)
[05:18] <Matic`Makovec> alaQ, does Photoshop nowdays work on Ubuntu as well? :o
[05:18] <GigaClon> they fstab entry used UUID
[05:18] <LjL> Matic`Makovec, alaQ: and Pixel32, when you start talking proprietary (and in this case, for-pay) software
[05:18] <Dr_willis> GigaClon,  odd.  Theres some init script that activates that stuff.. watch the boot messages for any information/error messages. could put 'swapon' in the rc.local as a workaround i guess.
[05:18] <alaQ> Matic`Makovec: I don't think so, but I don't know how well wine's coming with it.
[05:19] <Matic`Makovec> Ah, okay
[05:19] <Matic`Makovec> Thanks anyway
[05:19] <Dr_willis> GigaClon,  ya could alwyas edit the fstab to not use the UUID, that May be the issue. It may of gotten changed.
[05:19] <Dr_willis> GigaClon,  or set the UUID as you like.
[05:19] <LjL> zipper: but i think that if you add it after the line that says "### END DEBIAN AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST", it will not be overwritten
[05:19] <Andeh> Is there any good media coding application? Something similar to MediaCoder (Open source but written for windows)?
[05:19] <zipper> LjL, sounds reasonable. I'd still try to find the man-page though, better to be sure :)
[05:19] <burzum> is ubuntu 6.06 server not able to boot from a SATA drive!? ive installed grub but it never boots, its like theres no bootloader.
[05:20] <GigaClon> Dr_willis, I switched to UUID cause my computer would flipflop from hda to sda and back
[05:20] <Andeh> Mediacoder can handle videos, i don't need this i'd just like a program that i can convert from any filetype to any other one. Audio i mean
[05:20] <ROnewbie> soundray: ok, np. I'm making coffee in the meanwhile ... ;-)
[05:20] <ROnewbie> :-)
[05:20] <zipper> Andeh, if MediaCoder is open source, isnt it likely to have a linux port?
[05:20] <gonzoism> how do i generate a random 21 character password ?
[05:21] <soundray> ROnewbie: I've compiled a rt61.ko replacement for you that *may* just work
[05:21] <Andeh> zipper: No, it's an awesome program but doesn't get much attention, and no, it doesnt work i wine.
[05:21] <Andeh> zipper: in wine*
[05:22] <zipper> gonzoism, well, i usually use an old but effective method called "Smashing your forehead on the keyboard till you have enough chars"
[05:22] <lucu> volontario

[05:22] <lenzzzinoleonard> ???
[05:22] <zipper> Andeh, time for you to get your hands dirty with the sourcecode then, and make it linux-compatible :) (joking aside, i'm not aware of an application in linux that can do what you require)
[05:22] <Andeh> zipper: So, do you know any good program for encoding/transcoding audio? I use MP3, Flac, and OGG.
[05:23] <navets> can anyone here help me fix my video driver?

[05:23] <Andeh> zipper: oh...
[05:23] <zipper> Andeh, only "LAME", but i guess you knew about that already
[05:23] <gonzoism> zipper i've tried that, but it seems my forehead has a preferrence for the middle keys
[05:23] <lenzzzinoleonard> can some 1 tell me how to mount an iso image in ubuntu
[05:23] <Dr_willis> !iso | lenzzzinoleonard
[05:23] <ubotu> lenzzzinoleonard: 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.
[05:23] <Andeh> zipper: No, i hate MP3s i only work with them when i need to send to people who don't know any other codecs
[05:23] <chazco> ffmpeg is good for converting all types of media i find (although you'll need to compile your own for MP3's due to the Ubuntu restrictions)
[05:23] <gonzoism> LjL thanks
[05:23] <lenzzzinoleonard> Dr_willis: yes ISO CD image
[05:24] <soundray> ROnewbie: get it from http://www.soundray.org/rt61.ko and let me know when you've downloaded it (because I'll delete it straight away)
[05:24] <Dr_willis> lenzzzinoleonard,  yes.. You use the command the bot just gave to mount it...
[05:24] <Andeh> zipper: A 7 MB mp3 sounds identical to a 1 MB Ogg file on my Portable Audio Player (i'm not calling it an MP3 Player cause it can play 4 other formats too)
[05:24] <zipper> Andeh, can't help you then. I know there are several independant encoders/decoders, but one that combines all of them? Sorry, dont know.
[05:24] <gonzoism> LjL i have it, how do i tell it to make it 21 characters long ?
[05:24] <dyrne> have to say im liking the ubuntu/mythtv combination. though ub would be too bloated but its not that bad without gnome
[05:24] <zipper> Andeh, and yeah, we can both agree that mp3 sucks (for computers anyway)
[05:24] <chazco> Andeh / zipper - try ffmpeg, its quite good
[05:25] <ROnewbie> soundray: doing it now ... thanks again. BTW, where does this go ? :D
[05:25] <chazco> provided you dont want to convert _to_ MP3 then the one in the repo's is fine
[05:25] <Andeh> chazco: zipper: ffmpeg? I said i'm not encoding videos
[05:25] <ROnewbie> soundray: did it
[05:25] <addiakogiannis> Hallo
[05:25] <chazco> works on audio with no problems
[05:25] <Dr_willis> dyrne,  been using Mythtv on my other uubntu box for a few weeks now
[05:25] <Andeh> zipper: lol
[05:25] <lenzzzinoleonard> i wan to install deb packages from ubuntu cd image. how do i do taht?
[05:25] <addiakogiannis> can I ask a question
[05:25] <LjL> !ask
[05:25] <dyrne> Dr_willis: ive just got to get the lirc stuff working with a remote now :)
[05:25] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:26] <zipper> Andeh, on my portable player, i like MP3. OGG takes too much processing power, and god knows the battery on my portable isnt the best.
[05:26] <Silent_G> somebody can tell me what is this error? and how to solve it? http://rafb.net/p/N9SuKo34.html
[05:26] <soundray> ROnewbie: /lib/modules/2.6.20-15-generic/kernel/ubuntu/wireless/rt2x00-legacy/rt61/  (backup the one that's there in case mine doesn't work)
[05:26] <gonzoism> don't make fun of me, ubotu
[05:26] <addiakogiannis> I have a laptop with HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-T10N dvdrw
[05:26] <ROnewbie> soundray: just to make sure we're talking about the same thing here: specifically, mine is called ... "RaLink RT2561/RT61  rev B 802.11g" ...
[05:26] <chazco> Andeh - ffmpeg can be used for audio. I convert MP3 to OGM with it. It supports quite a lot of audio formats.
[05:26] <Andeh> zipper: Oh... Yeah it says 13 hours battery time and i only get 3 lol
[05:26] <zipper> =D
[05:26] <lenzzzinoleonard> how to install packages from ubuntu cd iimage
[05:26] <lenzzzinoleonard> ????
[05:26] <Andeh> chazco: Can it transcode? Does it use piping instead of temp files?
[05:26] <burzum> is ubuntu 6.06 server not able to boot from a SATA drive!? ive installed grub but it never boots, its like theres no bootloader.
[05:26] <addiakogiannis> but k3b and gnome baker
[05:27] <addiakogiannis> they do not see it as recorder
[05:27] <rsa_md5> where is the linux source code on the ubuntu cd?
[05:27] <LjL> gonzoism: you can't. i've installed whois, and i'm afraid the provided mkpasswd is not the program you were looking for (it generates *hashes* for passwords)
[05:27] <soundray> ROnewbie: yeah, the one and only Ralink RT61
[05:27] <zerro> oki now i have raid up and running "i think" but now i have problem with the boot loader it fails to install on both hdds
[05:27] <lenzzzinoleonard> can some 1 tell me how to install packages from ubuntu cd iimage
[05:27] <lenzzzinoleonard> plz???
[05:27] <addiakogiannis> can you help?
[05:27] <Andeh> chazco: zipper: funny how you'll find more software on windows than linux for using linux audio formats. Also funny how linux supports windows formats better than linux formats.
[05:27] <ROnewbie> soundray: ok, going to replace it now. I guess I should reboot, right ?
[05:27] <adrian_> hello
[05:27] <adrian_> hi
[05:27] <Silent_G> somebody can tell me what is this error? and how to solve it? http://rafb.net/p/N9SuKo34.html
[05:27] <adrian_> :)
[05:28] <lenzzzinoleonard> plz somebody help  me
[05:28] <lenzzzinoleonard> can some 1 tell me how to install packages from ubuntu cd iimage
[05:28] <chazco> i think ffmpeg can... not 100%
[05:28] <zipper> Andeh, you sure of that statement? Couldn't it just be you haven't found the right packages yet? :)
[05:28] <soundray> ROnewbie: yes. If you don't, we'd have to do some thinking how to activate it...
[05:28] <chazco> lenzzzinolenoard - mount the CD image, add it as an repository (google for some good guides for this)
[05:28] <dima_> hola
[05:28] <zerro> plz help this raid is killing me ... :(
[05:28] <Andeh> zipper: lol. does FFMPEG come with a GUI? Cause if no, then it doesnt count lol
[05:29] <chazco> nope, no GUI (at least not one i know of)
[05:29] <gonzoism> LjL   thanks.
[05:29] <ROnewbie> soundray: before I do that ... in etc/wireless/ there's no RT61 folder, just an RT2500 ... my gut says it's important, but anyway.
[05:29] <lenzzzinoleonard> chazco: can u tell me how to add it ass repostery
[05:29] <zipper> Andeh, i wouldnt know, i never work with audio or video conversions.
[05:29] <mpeccorini> dima_: hola
[05:29] <chazco> you can use the menus in synaptic for that, or edit sources.list
[05:30] <addiakogiannis> guys does anyone know anything about my case?
[05:30] <Andeh> zipper: There you go lol. Linux can do 98% of the stuff windows can do, but most of it doesnt come with a GUI :)
[05:30] <zipper> Andeh, besides, "Linux formats" and "windows formats"? Dont you mean "open" and "closed" formats?
[05:30] <ROnewbie> soundray: I couldn't help notice that the "legacy" folder has both
[05:30] <zipper> Andeh, well, if you already have what you want in windows, why switch?
[05:30] <chazco> lenzzzinolenoard - i think theres an option called Software Sources in System/Admin - try that
[05:30] <LjL> gonzoism: i suppose makepasswd would be the simplest to use among the ones i've had ubotu list to you -- though most of the others generate "pronounceable", which might be useful
[05:30] <Andeh> zipper: Yes, but you will find most linux distros supports OGG and FLAC better than closed windows formats like MP3
[05:30] <rsa_md5> err....where exactly is the linux source code included in the ubuntu cd?
[05:31] <gonzoism> LjL thanks
[05:31] <incorrect> i would like a pretty little mysql gui editor, what can i apt-get install ?
[05:31] <soundray> ROnewbie: I'm not sure why you even have that folder. Let's see if and how the module works and worry about this other issue in case it doesn't.
[05:31] <gonzoism> ubotu quit making fun of me !!!
[05:31] <zipper> Andeh, you do know that linux could support mp3 default, if it was allowed to, right?
[05:31] <MasterFire84> Hey, is there someone I can start a private convo with about ubunut?
[05:31] <ROnewbie> soundray
[05:31] <ROnewbie> soundray: ok, I'll do that
[05:31] <Andeh> zipper: Because i have what i want but windows doesnt let me use it unless i wait 18 minutes (i counted) for it to startup and load all its shit first.
[05:31] <magnet> Andeh: MP3 is not a closed nor a windows format, it's a patented format.
[05:31] <MasterFire84> *ubuntu what a typo XD
[05:31] <zipper> Andeh, but due to certain laws and policies, they cannot include support by default
[05:31] <ROnewbie> soundray: brb
[05:31] <Andeh> zipper: yes..
[05:31] <LjL> gonzoism, what's the deal with Ubotu? i don't see it saying anything to you in the channel
[05:32] <lenzzzinoleonard> chazco: would u mind im i mp u?
[05:32] <lenzzzinoleonard> sorry PM
[05:32] <zipper> Andeh, besides, if you complain about installing mp3 support, you're really too lazy for linux :)
[05:32] <gonzoism> LjL it /msg's me telling me that i am merely a mortal and should not meddle in the affairs of robots....
[05:32] <Andeh> zipper: I've been using ubuntu for half a year now, i'm pretty knoledgeable about all the licenses (I often google for things like "Why the **** doesnt linux come with mp3 support" and get lots of results)
[05:32] <MasterFire84> OI! is there anyone that I can have a private conversation with about Ubuntu?
[05:32] <gonzoism> LjL   i am of course joking.  :)
[05:32] <Cool_Nick> Is there a way to define pppoe to use a specific name for the connection instead of the first available ppp*?  That way my firewall script wont be using a wrong ppp* if it changes.
[05:33] <magnet> MasterFire84: a/s/l ?????!!!111
[05:33] <zipper> Andeh, i've been using linux for 5+ years, and i still have a lot to learn.
[05:33] <Andeh> zipper: I am not complaining. I do know about people who will start it up, double click on an mp3 file, get angry and go back to windows :)
[05:33] <roadkill> issue: my wifi icon (topright) seemingly randomly dissapears, 1 how do i stop it from disapearing, and 2 how can i get it back once it has?
[05:33] <selim> can someone help me with the vpn_manager
[05:33] <zipper> Andeh, nothing "we" can do about it without breaking the law.
[05:33] <sahil> hey, if i don't want to see a list of OS at start-up instead of making the timeout time in the menu.lst file 0, can i make it a comment?
[05:34] <Andeh> zipper: Well, windows is made by Microsucks and XP has been around for 6 years so i learnt everything worth knowing. LInux, on the other hand, gets updated every 2 seconds, in any way, so it's impossible to learn everything.
[05:35] <Dr_willis> Andeh,  I do recall similer issues with windows and several video/audio formats also... so its not just a Linux issue.
[05:35] <magnet> Andeh: "linux" does not come with MP3 codecs because it would be a rampant layer violation. GNU/Linux distributions, however, do come with MP3 codecs. Ubuntu doesn't because it doesn't distinguish the crippled US version and non-US versions.
[05:35] <Andeh> zipper: lol
[05:35] <selim> I have a wireless interface working and try to do a pptp vpn connection but everytime I try to connect I get this message
[05:35] <kdubois> sahil, look through the /boot/grub/menu.lst file. i know theres an option to hide the list.....
[05:35] <nomic> can you run rawrite from the ubuntu install disk within linux (it's an .EXE)
[05:35] <selim> nm_vpn_manager_activate_vpn_connection(): no currently active network device, won't activate VPN.
[05:35] <Andeh> magnet: Uh... what's the difference between non-us and us here?
[05:35] <nomic> ANYONE: http://pictures.kyozou.com/pictures/_4/3577/3576951.jpg
[05:35] <nomic> WOOPS
[05:35] <magnet> Andeh: MP3 aren't distributed because the algorithm is patented in the US.
[05:35] <nomic> sorry
[05:35] <soundray> No, sahil, you should just enable the 'hiddenmenu' option
[05:35] <sahil> kdubois, yes there is, but which one do i uncomment
[05:35] <selim> just like this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2842907#post2842907
[05:35] <nomic> ANY can you run rawrite from the ubuntu install disk within linux (it's an .EXE)
[05:35] <zipper> Andeh, if you believe you've learned everything, you havent learned anything yet.
[05:35] <magnet> Andeh: the format itself is open, and totally legal to use in Europe for example
[05:35] <navets> !XAIGLX
[05:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xaiglx - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:35] <navets> !AIGLX
[05:35] <sahil> soundray, thank you

[05:35] <Andeh> magnet: Oh, lol. Lucky i live in holland then :)
[05:35] <nomic> what i'm saying is can you create a system install boot floppy from within ubuntu
[05:35] <SleepingSloth> incorrect: I'm just trying out mysql-navigator
[05:35] <sahil> soundray, there are 2 "hiddenmenu" one has two ## and one has # which one should i uncomment
[05:36] <kdubois> soundray, thats what i was thinking of. sahil, the file is pretty well documented...
[05:36] <nomic> no?
[05:36] <magnet> Andeh: then you suffer from this cripple install because of idiotic US legislation (just like I do).
[05:36] <soundray> sahil: the lower one
[05:36] <magnet> Andeh: that's why Debian comes in two flavors : US and non-US
[05:36] <JuJuBee> Why is it that every time I install and try to create a separate /home I get "No bootable device" after the reboot?  If I install a single partition, it works fine.
[05:36] <sahil> soundray, thanks a lot :)
[05:36] <zipper> magnet, yes, and its pure BS. Intellectual property? My ass. "Oh, i've just got an idea. Now i'll patent it, and then noone can ever get to have that same idea ever again!"
[05:36] <Andeh> zmagnet: lol
[05:36] <incorrect> thanks SleepingSloth
[05:36] <nomic> what i'm saying is can you create a system install boot floppy from within ubuntu
[05:36] <Andeh> magnet: lol
[05:36] <lenzzzinoleonard> thiss command - "sudo apt-cdrom add" for packages on cd rom. how do i set to check on CD image
[05:36] <lenzzzinoleonard> thiss command - "sudo apt-cdrom add" checks for packages on cd rom. how do i set to check on CD image
[05:36] <nomic> where can you get the UBUNTU manual btw
[05:36] <snyft> i want ntsf support on my ubuntu is it ntsf 3g i should install?
[05:37] <nomic> is there a manual?
[05:37] <magnet> zipper: it's true however, that MP3 was revolutionary at the time. Still, software patents suck.
[05:37] <selim> it would be great to get this tool working, cause it is much more easier than configure it all on command line base
[05:37] <zipper> indeed it was
[05:37] <JuJuBee> Can I make my recently installed / partition bootable after install?
[05:37] <Andeh> zipper: Lol i said "everything worth knowing", for instance everyone considered me a windows expert. I am an expert at my CURRENT windows setup, so if someone gave me a job as a network admin, for instance, i'd be relatively clueless. I'd learn fast though.
[05:37] <lenzzzinoleonard> thiss command - "sudo apt-cdrom add" checks for packages on cd rom. how do i set to check on CD image ?
[05:37] <zipper> magnet, but why the permanent patent? Imho the company should get a few years to exploit the idea, and then lose the patent. Just enough to get them ahead of competitors.
[05:38] <magnet> zipper: no patent is permanent, it's limited in time
[05:38] <zipper> magnet, yeah, i believe its what? 50 years?
[05:38] <magnet> zipper: it depends, never more than 20 years
[05:38] <LinuxHelp> How can I change the UUID of a disk?
[05:39] <magnet> LinuxHelp: you don't. (or format it ;))
[05:39] <DJ-_-> offtopic, >pm.....i am facing major problems with dns....have a look at samad909.info and www.samad909.info
[05:39] <zipper> magnet, still way way too long. 5 years tops would be fair imho.
[05:39] <LinuxHelp> magnet, what do you mean by format, fdisk?
[05:39] <nomic> well that was helpful
[05:39] <lenzzzinoleonard> how do i set apt to check for packeges in periculer location?
[05:39] <MystaMax> I've got a problem w/ dependencies. I just ran aptitude, hit 'g' and it listed a bunch of KDE packages, I'm not sure why. How do I find out why those packages are going to be installed
[05:39] <zipper> magnet, i mean, just take a look of all those companies starting up. They never produce anything, they just patent everything and start suing. Its crazy.
[05:40] <soundray> LinuxHelp: man tune2fs
[05:40] <magnet> LinuxHelp: I mean formating your disk. That is usually not something you wanna do ;)
[05:40] <Cool_Nick> Is there a way to define pppoe to use a specific name for the connection instead of the first available ppp*?  That way my firewall script wont be using a wrong ppp* if it changes. unless there is another solution to this?
[05:40] <magnet> LinuxHelp: fdisk allows you to (as well as many other tools)
[05:40] <lenzzzinoleonard> hello can sombody help me
[05:40] <lenzzzinoleonard> how do i set apt to check for packeges in periculer location?
[05:40] <magnet> zipper: those are patent trolls
[05:41] <zipper> magnet, yes... unfortunately its a valid business model =/
[05:42] <LinuxHelp> Oh, so only partitions can have uuids, not disks
[05:42] <rinky3> lenzzzinoleonard: I think you edit the /etc/apt/sources.lst or something like that
[05:42] <LinuxHelp> Anyway, this is all irrelevant, I just want to switch from a single disk to raid 1 without reinstalling
[05:42] <magnet> zipper: as long as the US suck so much at making laws yeah (so it will last ;))
[05:42] <lenzzzinoleonard> rinky3:I'mtotal noob can u PLZ  tell me how i do that?
[05:42] <rinky3> yeah laws suck
[05:43] <LinuxHelp> nano -w /etc/apt/sources.lst
[05:43] <rinky3> sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.lst I think
[05:43] <rambo3> !source-o-matic | lenzzzinoleonard
[05:43] <ubotu> lenzzzinoleonard: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[05:44] <rinky3> lenzzzinoleonard: make a backup of sources.lst before you modify it
[05:44] <rambo3> lenzzzinoleonard, if it is simple update of location use synaptic
[05:44] <nickrud> MystaMax, look through those kde packages, most of them probably say iA (installed automatically due to dependencies), look for the one(s) that don't have the A

[05:47] <kdubois> ubuntuish, vlc or transcode
[05:47] <astrogonzales> can anyone answer a question about installing ubuntu
[05:47] <SleepingSloth> astrogonzales - ask away, if someone can help, they will
[05:48] <ROnewbie> soundray: well, it did the same thing it did before, i.e. I would click on it, it would ask for my WEP password, I would input it, and then it would tak about 30 secs to a minute to try and connect, without any luck. I tried both encrypted and unencrypted
[05:48] <ubuntuish> i am sorry
[05:48] <ubuntuish> i said it wrong
[05:48] <ROnewbie> soundray: can you give the directory where that thing is, so that I can change it with the original ?

[05:49] <ROnewbie> soundray: no
[05:49] <rambo3> lenzzzinoleonard, what do you have ? and iso ?
[05:49] <ROnewbie> soundray: should I try that too ?
[05:49] <lenzzzinoleonard> yes
[05:49] <soundray> ROnewbie: well, it can't work then. I told you they're incompatible
[05:49] <rambo3> !iso | lenzzzinoleonard
[05:49] <ubotu> lenzzzinoleonard: 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.

[05:50] <nickrud> MystaMax, all? There's a section in the go screen, it says packages to be installed: that's not there, only the section that says something about automatically installed?
[05:50] <astrogonzales> I burnt the .iso to a cd yesterday and tried installing it, but there seems to be somethig wrong with the filesystem (?) even though the cd is fine. so I thought of copying it onto another partition of my harddrive and installing it there. The only problem is that I have no clue how to do it.
[05:50] <astrogonzales> the ubuntu .iso
[05:50] <lenzzzinoleonard> rambo3: this is my first time on irc. plz excuse me
[05:50] <ievolve> did you burn the iso as bootable?
[05:50] <ROnewbie> soundray: ok, i'll do that
[05:51] <_fjas_> anyone have problems with booting from ubuntu cd?? my screen simply starts to flicker after initial menu...
[05:51] <soundray> ROnewbie: then do a 'cd /etc/dbus-1/event.d ; sudo chmod -x 25NetworkManager 26NetworkManagerDispatcher'

[05:51] <lenzzzinoleonard> rambo3: do you want to know the name of the ISO Image?
[05:52] <MystaMax> nickrud: I'm sorry. let me start over. I launched aptitude, and wanted to install vim, so i hit the "plus" sign to add it for install, and then I hit "g" to try and install and now it wants to install some kde packages (ie. kdelibs-data)
[05:52] <ctkroeker> anyone know how to make a dvd from a openoffice presentation? i.e. convert it to video or something?
[05:52] <ROnewbie> soundray: ... jesus .... can't I just uncheck "enable networking" on right-clicking network manager ?
[05:52] <ROnewbie> soundray: there's no "session" in system-administration
[05:52] <xipietotec> I'm blanking, how do you change the splash screen again?
[05:52] <selim> no one some idea how I can solve this problem
[05:52] <soundray> ROnewbie: system-preferences then
[05:52] <selim> with the vpn-manager?
[05:53] <soundray> ROnewbie: and please don't invoke prophets just because you have to enter a command line.
[05:53] <ctkroeker> with what can I burn a vcd with mixed picures and video?
[05:53] <penguin> what package do i need to play .mp3's in amarok?
[05:54] <ROnewbie> soundray: :-)) ... I'm just afraid I have to undo all of that, and then there will be no one to help.
[05:54] <astrogonzales> well, I used my dad's mac to download it and burn it onto a cd. when I try installing it it starts up and installs parts of it, but then hangs somewhere along the way. I keep getting messages saying something about SQUASHFS. The problems keep turning up at different places so I figured that it's not a question of a bad cd.
[05:54] <ROnewbie> soundray: ok, found "sessions", did it

[05:54] <xipietotec> anyone know how to change the splash screen? I forgot
[05:54] <ROnewbie> soundray: is that just one line, or 2 ?
[05:54] <zipper> xipietotec, the splash screen when logging in?
[05:54] <soundray> ROnewbie: make notes of what you're doing. To re-enable NM, the command is the same except +x in the chmod
[05:55] <rambo3> lenzzzinoleonard, np , just mount iso to some folder  for example : open terminal (ALT+F2 in gnome), create dir by typing in terminal ; sudo mkdir /mnt/ubuntu , then mount iso to that folder :  sudo mount -o loop YOUR-ISO-FILE-AND-PATH  /mnt/ubuntu . then open synaptic  and add /mnt/ubuntu as CD ROM source

[05:55] <penguin> what package do i need to play .mp3's in amarok?
[05:56] <xipietotec> zipper, huh. odd, I don't have one
[05:56] <zipper> penguin, if you try to play an mp3, amarok should automaticly ask you if you want to install mp3 support
[05:56] <soundray> !mp3 > penguin, please read the private message from ubotu
[05:56] <zipper> xipietotec, hmm, i'm using kubuntu, might have some other name in gnome

[05:56] <liuyang> hallo, how to disable pc speaker? i ve disable it in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, but it doesn't after i recompile the kernel?
[05:56] <ROnewbie> soundray: what now?
[05:56] <lenzzzinoleonard> rambo3: thanx
[05:57] <soundray> ROnewbie: just do this little check: 'modinfo rt61' and tell me what it says on the description: line after CVS
[05:58] <ROnewbie> !pastebin | ronewbie
[05:58] <soundray> !msgthebot > ROnewbie
[05:59] <soundray> ROnewbie: you don't have to paste this. It's just a 8-digit number that I'm after
[05:59] <ROnewbie> soundray: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25558/
[05:59] <ROnewbie> soundray: yeah, but there's nothing after CVS in the description line
[05:59] <awk> hmm, can anyone see any issues installing a vserver-kernel image from debian testing brnach for fesity ?
[05:59] <awk> feisty
[06:00] <soundray> ROnewbie: okay, I'm glad we did this. You haven't put the module in the right place.
[06:00] <awk> i've heard of alot of people using debian kernels with no problems
[06:00] <WaxyFresh> how would i setup ubuntu to use the kubuntu aplication bar?
[06:00] <ROnewbie> soundray: good to know.
[06:00] <nickrud> WaxyFresh, run kubuntu?
[06:01] <soundray> ROnewbie: do a 'cp /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/ubuntu/wireless/rt2x00-legacy/rt61/rt61.ko ~/rt61-backup.ko'
[06:01] <dyrne> used a slack kernel for a while with no issue :)
[06:01] <dyrne> didnt mean to..
[06:01] <sergiu> could anybody tell me why is totem always starting when I boot&login? I watched a movie on my laptop and the battery got low and the os was shutting down.And now every time I boot it totem always starts
[06:01] <zipper> WaxyFresh, kubuntu application bar? You mean using KDE instead of Gnome?
[06:01] <el_taco> easy question. when I play any audio and continue to search the web and such sometimes when loading a memory intesive website or lot of data the audio will cut out. how can I increase prioity for audio apps
[06:01] <awk> dyrne naa i mean take the debian kernel image / headers .deb file and dpkg -i them ?
[06:01] <soundray> ROnewbie: then do a 'sudo cp ~/Desktop/rt61.ko /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/ubuntu/wireless/rt2x00-legacy/rt61/rt61.ko' (assuming that you downloaded my module to the desktop)
[06:02] <el_taco> mainly happens with rythmbox
[06:02] <ROnewbie> soundray: yes i did
[06:02] <zipper> el_taco, does it happend when you use other applications to play music?
[06:02] <soundray> ROnewbie: pay attention to any errors. There shouldn't be any.
[06:02] <el_taco> zipper yes
[06:02] <dyrne> awk: yeah. shouldnt be an issue. not a big one anyway
[06:03] <zipper> el_taco, hmm...
[06:03] <el_taco> wait.. not sure :)
[06:03] <zipper> awk, i would bet you're bound to get some problems when updating your kernel through the repositories though
[06:03] <zipper> dunno
[06:03] <ROnewbie> soundray: shouldn't the first line also be sudo ?
[06:03] <soundray> ROnewbie: no
[06:04] <sergiu> could anybody tell me why is totem always starting when I boot&login? I watched a movie on my laptop and the battery got low and the os was shutting down.And now every time I boot it totem always starts
[06:04] <WaxyFresh> zipper: no i just want the menu bar from kubuuntu rather then the gnome look i like the way KDE looks but it just runs too slowly for me
[06:04] <el_taco> zipper yes confirmed any app
[06:04] <soundray> ROnewbie: you're not doing anything that requires root privileges there. Just backing up the old module to your home.
[06:04] <awk> ok thanks
[06:04] <navets> !AXIGL
[06:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about axigl - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:04] <zipper> sergiu, if you close it before logging out, it shouldnt start up automaticly
[06:04] <ROnewbie> soundray: ok, did them both.
[06:04] <el_taco> if I play an mp3 and load digg.com it will cut out.
[06:04] <navets> !axilg
[06:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about axilg - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:04] <sergiu> but it starts
[06:04] <ubuntuish> Is it possible to setup a windows terminal server of sorts for ubuntu? (want to connect from rdp(xp) to ubuntu)
[06:05] <sergiu> i always close it, and it starts all the time i boot&login
[06:05] <soundray> ROnewbie: one other thing we should do is to blacklist the alternative module: 'echo blacklist rt61pci | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-rt61pci'
[06:05] <zipper> ubuntuish, i'm not sure what rdp is... but you can set up a SSH server quite easy (telnet, but encrypted)
[06:05] <zipper> el_taco, sorry, not sure how to help you
[06:05] <ubuntuish> zipper, remote desktop protocol
[06:06] <zipper> ubuntuish, ah... then you wanna look into VNC (I've heard good results from people using tightVNC)
[06:06] <guillem101> I cannot install manually the latest nvidia driver in my laptop. I follow the instructions, but xorg seems to try loading the nvidia-glx-new kernel module instead of the one compiled by the nvidia installer. If i do rmmod nvidia and ismod /lib/modules/../nvidia.ko I can start xorg... any clues???
[06:06] <ROnewbie> soundray: it said "blacklist rt61"
[06:06] <zipper> WaxyFresh, not sure how thats possible
[06:06] <ubuntuish> zipper, like theres a terminal server client in ubuntu, i want to setup a terminal server for unbuntu so i can do it the other way round
[06:07] <soundray> ROnewbie: good. Tell me what you get from a 'lsmod | grep rt61'
[06:07] <rambo3> ubuntuish, it is already there if you mean remote desktop
[06:07] <ubuntuish> rambo3, in ubuntu?

[06:07] <ubuntuish> i know about vnc and the other applications alike it
[06:07] <bulmer> ubuntuish: there is already the LTSP
[06:07] <addyk> Hey does anyone know how can I put tty under framebuffer mode?
[06:08] <soundray> ROnewbie: okay. Now 'sudo rmmod rt61' - any errors?
[06:08] <ubuntuish> bulmer, and you can connect to it from xp? using the rdp built in soft?
[06:08] <{DB}HobbitJa> Hello,
[06:08] <nickrud> sergiu, system-preferences-sessions: look through the tabs, set up the desktop the way you want (i.e., no totem) and hit save session button
[06:08] <addyk> Buna seara ROnewbie
[06:08] <zipper> ubuntuish, i see. Well, tightVNC is my best offer, i'm unaware of any linux application thats directly compatible with windows' remote desktop
[06:08] <rambo3> ubuntuish, System -> Preferences-> Remote desktop
[06:08] <{DB}HobbitJa> can anyone tell me how i would compile CUPS on my nas please?
[06:08] <bulmer> ubuntuish: it uses a different protocol, not rdp
[06:08] <ubuntuish> bulmer, you know anything that about one that uses rdp?
[06:09] <ubuntuish> rambo3, thank you will have a look
[06:09] <soundray> {DB}HobbitJa: this isn't the best channel for this question, unless your nas runs ubuntu.
[06:09] <bulmer> ubuntuish: why insist on using a windows protocol on a linux server machine?
[06:09] <{DB}HobbitJa> hmm it might do? lol
[06:09] <ROnewbie> soundray: ERROR: Module rt61 is in use
[06:09] <{DB}HobbitJa> could you point me to a suitable channel please?
[06:09] <sergiu> nickrud, totem doesnt apper in session window
[06:09] <{DB}HobbitJa> im kinda linux n00b
[06:09] <ROnewbie> addyk: salut; scuze, sunt putin ocupat
[06:09] <ubuntuish> bulmer, cause my office pc's are still windows
[06:09] <addyk> No probs :)

[06:10] <ROnewbie> soundray: I hope this will be easy to undo ... :-D
[06:10] <nijisan> Anyone know how to get the scanjet 4600 working under ubuntu?
[06:10] <magnet> #cups ?
[06:10] <bulmer> ubuntuish: there are windows clients for linux LTSP
[06:10] <awk> hrm, how do you download the .deb file of a package?
[06:10] <awk> i don't want the source i want the .deb
[06:10] <dyrne> nijisan: id do a google search like site:linuxprinting.org scanjet 4600     first thing
[06:10] <erUSUL> awk: apt-get get ??
[06:10] <{DB}HobbitJa> #cups is lonely im the only one
[06:10] <soundray> ROnewbie: no worries, just doing some diagnostics to make sure everything is as intended. Do a 'sudo ifdown ra0 ; sudo rmmod rt61'
[06:10] <ubuntuish> bulmer, i'll browse through it but do you know of any that implement the rdp ?
[06:10] <bulmer> ubuntuish: you were advised of VNC or ultraVNC
[06:11] <awk> get get?
[06:11] <noelia> ola
[06:11] <ubuntuish> yes i do know about those applications
[06:11] <erUSUL> !synaptic | awk
[06:11] <ubotu> awk: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[06:11] <zipper> bulmer, and tightVNC :)
[06:11] <bulmer> ubuntuish: no, why must it use a windows protocol?

[06:11] <{DB}HobbitJa> i guess my real question is how would i compile something on ubuntu? :P i have a gz file
[06:11] <awk> who the fsck uses synaptic
[06:11] <ubuntuish> bulmer, because rdp is built-in to windows and i don't have to install another application
[06:11] <{DB}HobbitJa> its a western digital mybook world edition
[06:11] <Dr_willis> does the Ubuntu 'dvd' have the option to do the Alternative Install and the livecd type install?  or is it just a live cd with more packages on it
[06:11] <awk> erUSUL please dont paste me shit
[06:11] <noelia> ola
[06:11] <awk> thanks mag
[06:11] <awk> thanks magnet
[06:11] <dyrne> ubuntuish: freenx is also nice for low bandwidth and latency issues. the windows client is free from nomachine

[06:12] <soundray> !compile > {DB}HobbitJa, please read ubotu's private message

[06:12] <Zapp> how do I to get default user list in x-chat.. now i need to click on 1149 User button :<
[06:12] <bulmer> ubuntuish: as if its going to kill you..go ahead and install, you probably install more stuff windows related than a mere client
[06:12] <Zapp> old x-chat did have a list like mirc
[06:12] <erUSUL> !language > awk
[06:12] <{DB}HobbitJa> thanks dude
[06:12] <soundray> erUSUL: cross-compiling for a nas if I understood it correctly

[06:13] <elkbuntu> awk, erUSUL, both of you behave please
[06:14] <Akuma_> is i get feisty now, will the kernel already be the latest one? or images are frozen since the release date?
[06:14] <soundray> elkbuntu: I can't see erUSUL having done *anything* wrong
[06:14] <magnet> awk: apt-get -d install package (or --download-only) ; only works on packages not yet installed
[06:15] <awk> magnet so it will download the .deb though ?
[06:15] <magnet> awk: yep
[06:15] <awk> so i can do a --purge remove && -d install
[06:15] <awk> then just dpkg -i afterwards or something
[06:15] <magnet> awk: yep
[06:15] <elkbuntu> soundray, covering bases since i dont have the time to read the backlog
[06:15] <awk> ok great, thanks
[06:15] <kefas> helpme
[06:15] <elkbuntu> kefas, we're going to need more information than that
[06:15] <magnet> awk: however you can't easily know the name of the .deb in advance
[06:15] <Ragnaroek> don't know
[06:16] <magnet> awk: you can download it to a newly created directory, and dpkg -i dir/*
[06:16] <awk> magnet it's just a kernel image i'm after so its easy to do a download-only linux-imageg-2.6.18-4-vserver-686
[06:16] <magnet> awk: yep ok, good luck

[06:18] <egomezs> ola
[06:18] <magnet> tkaplan: well some application already runs on port 80
[06:18] <Ayabara> any other good dual pane file explorers than krusader and gnome commander out there?
[06:18] <tkaplan> nope checked that
[06:19] <tkaplan> I did a netstat
[06:19] <magnet> tkaplan: well you didn't do it properly :)
[06:19] <tkaplan> yes I did
[06:19] <magnet> tkaplan: you need to netstat -apn  | grep 80
[06:19] <dyrne> why is it binding to 0.0.0.0?
[06:19] <tkaplan> idk
[06:19] <tkaplan> thats the problem
[06:19] <magnet> dyrne: 0.0.0.0 is the default IP
[06:19] <ROnewbie> soundray: did it, no errors, nothing happened. Can I uncross my fingers? it kinda hurts
[06:19] <magnet> tkaplan: i *assure* you, you didn't check port 80 properly
[06:20] <magnet> tkaplan: maybe apache is already running
[06:20] <soundray> ROnewbie: :)  System-Admin-Network -- is there a ra1 interface now?
[06:20] <tkaplan> i assure you I have had about 3 unix/linux gurus look at this today and we are all stumped
[06:20] <gravemind> how do you use checkinstall?
[06:20] <void^> binding to a port <1024 requires root
[06:20] <magnet> tkaplan: when you use netstat  to check open connections, you need to add the -a parameter
[06:20] <tkaplan> I check
[06:20] <tkaplan> I did a ps
[06:20] <tkaplan> and apache is not running
[06:20] <MystaMax> nickrud: wow, I'm not sure what happen but a lot of packages got uninstalled! I went through the list of removed packages and added them back. I'm really not sure why it happen http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25565/
[06:20] <magnet> tkaplan: I am an Unix guru, and I know that the message you get comes directly from the IP stack; and that it doesnt lie :)
[06:21] <soundray> !checkinstall > gravemind, please read ubotu's private messagew
[06:21] <ROnewbie> soundray ? where should it be ?
[06:21] <gravemind> thanks
[06:21] <ROnewbie> soundray: where ?
[06:21] <magnet> tkaplan: if you still got this error, try netstat -apn | grep ':80'
[06:21] <guillem101> OK, I found the clue: "Downgrading from nvidia-glx-new to nvidia-glx does not remove the file /lib/linux-restricted-modules/.nvidia_new_installed. This causes the wrong nvidia ..."
[06:21] <tkaplan> really so tell me when i do a netstat why port 80 is not being used GURU
[06:21] <BlueDevil> can i get linux-restricted-modules with git?
[06:21] <soundray> ROnewbie: did you find the menu item?
[06:21] <magnet> tkaplan: because you don't pass the required parameters to netstat
[06:21] <magnet> tkaplan: you only list outgoing connexions and not open ports
[06:22] <magnet> tkaplan: and s/outgoing/established/ :)
[06:22] <tkaplan> ok let me see your netstat command

[06:25] <IamLordV1ldemort> Yeah
[06:25] <tkaplan> well nothing
[06:25] <IamLordV1ldemort> So, remote term emulation issues.
[06:25] <tkaplan> anyone else have an issue
[06:25] <UberPsyX> anyone here have experience with a logitech G15 on ubuntu
[06:25] <tkaplan> with apache right now.  I can't get it to start
[06:25] <tkaplan> nothing is using port 80 right now
[06:26] <DJ-_-> tkaplan: what is the error it shows when starting
[06:26] <magnet> tkaplan: the error message hasn't changed? still 0.0.0.0:80 already bound?
[06:26] <tkaplan> 1 sec
[06:26] <magnet> tkaplan: do you have multiple IPs on your system?
[06:26] <IamLordV1ldemort> This is an ubuntu specific thing, I think, but man, what a pain
[06:26] <IamLordV1ldemort> Gentoo, RedHat, etc, etc all work.
[06:26] <ROnewbie> soundray: where do I enable dhcp ?
[06:26] <dyrne> UberPsyX: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=248733  maybe
[06:26] <tkaplan> yes same error message
[06:26] <gravemind> soundray: does checkinstall need sudo?
[06:27] <UberPsyX> dyrne thanks
[06:27] <kefas> like intalos xampp in my ubuntu please help me
[06:27] <DJ-_-> tkaplan: try a ps or top and give magnet the process list....he will help u
[06:27] <soundray> gravemind: yes
[06:27] <tkaplan> me??
[06:27] <magnet> DJ-_-: he doesn't want to be helped that much I think ;)
[06:27] <soundray> ROnewbie: under Connection settings in the Properties dialog
[06:28] <gravemind> soundray: alright, trying it now
[06:28] <DJ-_-> magnet: lol k, na i thot giving the processes out might show if any other process is using that like another web server ;)
[06:28] <magnet> tkaplan: the error message you've got isn't apache's. Apache's just forwarding it to you from the IP stack (the listen() functiopn)
[06:28] <tkaplan> im not sure
[06:28] <magnet> DJ-_-: i made him check port 80 already, but well..
[06:28] <magnet> tkaplan: what does telnet localhost:80 do?
[06:29] <DJ-_-> magnet: ah k, its kewl then...
[06:29] <tkaplan> 1 sec
[06:29] <tkaplan> telnet: could not resolve localhost:80/telnet: Name or service not known
[06:29] <ROnewbie> soundray: aaa .. i don't know what happened
[06:29] <magnet> put a space instead of the ':'
[06:29] <magnet> sorry
[06:29] <tkaplan> 1 sec
[06:29] <ROnewbie> soundray: i did that, then clicked OK, it disconnected
[06:29] <tkaplan> tkaplan@pirate:~$ telnet localhost 80
[06:29] <tkaplan> Trying 127.0.0.1...
[06:29] <tkaplan> telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
[06:30] <ROnewbie> soundray: and then connected to the wired connection
[06:30] <magnet> tkaplan: it sure is weird; but i'm sure it's nothing; just hard to solve through IRC :)
[06:30] <nickrud> MystaMax, just sat back down, I'm looking
[06:30] <magnet> tkaplan: did you change your apache config latelyt?
[06:30] <magnet> -t
[06:31] <DJ-_-> tkaplan: try rebooting hehe....cuz it did happen to me once but after reboot was fine, happened on ubuntu-server though
[06:31] <soundray> ROnewbie: can you do a 'tail -n 100 /var/log/syslog' and pastebin that?
[06:32] <soundray> ROnewbie: also 'modinfo rt61' again
[06:33] <IamLordV1ldemort> Avast, help me with my terminal emulation issues.  This is t3h suck.
[06:34] <Bacon|ubuntu> yarg
[06:34] <ROnewbie> soundray: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25571/
[06:35] <Bacon|ubuntu> I need help with my broadcom 43xx
[06:35] <nickrud> MystaMax, why some of those are marked is a real brain teaser: if it was myself, I'd suspect PEBKAC based on experience
[06:35] <soundray> ROnewbie: okay, stupid of me, we need to reboot to finally disable NetworkManager.
[06:35] <MystaMax> nickrud: PEBKAC?
[06:36] <nickrud> heh. problem exists between keyboard and chair.  I've experienced it often ;)
[06:36] <ROnewbie> soundray: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25572/
[06:36] <soundray> ROnewbie: I mean, you need to reboot. I don't necessarily. :)
[06:36] <Ayabara> it's not possible to get multiple panes in nautilus?
[06:36] <ROnewbie> sound ... ok ... then what should I do or what should happen ?
[06:36] <MystaMax> nickrud: I can agree with that
[06:36] <lakcaj> Anyone know a way to download flash videos from websites other than YouTube?
[06:37] <DJ-_-> lakcaj: you mozilla addon video downloader
[06:37] <lakcaj> DJ-_-, thanks - I'll take a look for that
[06:37] <soundray> ROnewbie: what you saw was NetworkManager trying to take control of the interface. When you reboot, it won't do that any more.
[06:37] <nickrud> MystaMax, i mean, module-assistant depends on build-essential, which depends on a fair amount of that stuff, but xchat-gnome?
[06:37] <DJ-_-> lakcaj: np
[06:37] <ROnewbie> soundray: .... ok
[06:38] <ROnewbie> soundray: be right back
[06:38] <nickrud> Ayabara, what do you mean by multiple panes?
[06:38] <MystaMax> nickrud: yea I'm pretty surprised about that one, actually I'm surprised about them all. It didn't say anything about uninstalling any of those packages
[06:38] <soundray> ROnewbie: you may have to configure your wired interface in the same way with DHCP (no ESSID of course).
[06:39] <DJ-_-> bbl
[06:39] <Ayabara> nickrud, like total commander, if you know that one
[06:39] <soundray> ROnewbie: are you going to reboot now?
[06:39] <tkaplan> quit
[06:39] <tkaplan> exit
[06:39] <nickrud> MystaMax, yeah. I used to run debian unstable a lot, and would run into issues like that when dependencies got changed and the like. that's when I really learned to love aptitude.
[06:39] <DJ-_-> lakcaj: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2390
[06:39] <DJ-_-> brb
[06:39] <nickrud> Ayabara, ok, I see. then no, it doesn't.
[06:40] <MystaMax> nickrud: yea, i gotcha. Thanks for all your help
[06:40] <Ayabara> nickrud, ok. tried gnome-commander and krusader, but didn't like them. trying konqueror now :-)
[06:40] <noob> I can't use archive manager to unpack rar files

[06:44] <TheCougar> what is a good MP3 organizer program? just something that will read the mp3s and organize them in the program based on things like album / class / etc but only in the program?
[06:44] <OMGLAZERS> Oh and this isnt really an ubuntu question, but does anyone know if Amarok can directly edit the tags of the files when changing stuff?
[06:44] <OMGLAZERS> TheCougar: I think amarok is the best for that.. what i've heard
[06:44] <Nephelauxetic> TheCougar, Amark with MySQL
[06:44] <Nephelauxetic> TheCougar, Amarok
[06:44] <navets> can someone help me getting opengl to work?
[06:44] <AaronMT> Hello, I have a problem with my Dell Inspiron laptop and resuming from standby. I am using Ndiswrapper for my Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-PCI Card (Broadcom Corporation). My info.linux.driver is set to "ndiswrapper" and im using NetworkManager Applet 0.6.4. When I resume from standby the program will only let me configure wired connections as wireless functionality has disappeared and thus I can not connect to my
[06:44] <AaronMT> wireless network. How can I fix this?
[06:44] <OMGLAZERS> Nephelauxetic: There's a version w/ MySQL ?
[06:44] <dyrne> guys if you want hd and digital channels ota or cable i heartily recommend hdhomerun
[06:45] <Nephelauxetic> OMGLAZERS, no but you can get MySQL from the repos
[06:45] <TheCougar> well thats cool then:) i'll try it out
[06:45] <ROnewbie> soundray: wow ... i think it's working
[06:45] <dyrne> that sounded a little like spam :)
[06:45] <Nephelauxetic> OMGLAZERS, on first start amarok asks which db you wan't to use
[06:45] <OMGLAZERS> Nephelauxetic: Does it improve it? Im moving my g/f over to linux and she's a big music nut
[06:45] <OMGLAZERS> Ohh
[06:45] <OMGLAZERS> I got it.
[06:45] <Nephelauxetic> OMGLAZERS, I don't know but I think yes...
[06:45] <OMGLAZERS> !video
[06:45] <ubotu> Ubuntu 7.04 installs multimedia codecs automatically. For older versions of Ubuntu, or if you can't use the automatic installer, see https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - For multimedia applications, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultimediaApplications
[06:45] <gnychis_> how do i get network-manager to remember my WPA2 key?
[06:46] <TheCougar> Nephelauxetic if the database (mysql) is on another system on the network will it be a lot slower then if it is local?
[06:46] <OMGLAZERS> !nividia
[06:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nividia - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:46] <OMGLAZERS> Whats the nvidia drivers install ! ?
[06:46] <Nephelauxetic> TheCougar, no clue but U think a local DB will be faster anyway
[06:46] <OMGLAZERS> I forgot it
[06:46] <soundray> ROnewbie: now 'iwlist ra1 ap' should show you other available networks
[06:46] <kdubois> OMGLAZERS, you might want to look into 'listen' for a music library.
[06:47] <razorednight> I got the mp3 codecs etc for feisty but where can i get the dvd codec?
[06:47] <OMGLAZERS> kdubois: Ill check it out. I just want to find one that can work w/ an ipod and can directly edit the file's ID tags
[06:47] <OMGLAZERS> itunes refusal to edit the ACTUAL files makes me question their sanity
[06:47] <kdubois> OMGLAZERS, i know it can edit the id3's, but i dont have an ipod, so i wouldnt know about that...
[06:47] <ROnewbie> soundray: yeahh ... about that ... any GUI way of doing it ? :d
[06:47] <TheCougar> Nephelauxetic: yeah i realize a local would be faster but just wondering if you had experance with it being remote
[06:48] <soundray> ROnewbie: I meant 'iwlist ra1 scan'
[06:48] <OMGLAZERS> Whats the nvidia driver bot popup thing?
[06:48] <OMGLAZERS> !videodrivers
[06:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about videodrivers - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:48] <OMGLAZERS> Jesus I forgot :/
[06:48] <Nephelauxetic> TheCougar, no I don't... it actually makes no sense as the music is local anyway :S
[06:48] <Pici> !nvidia | OMGLAZERS
[06:48] <ubotu> OMGLAZERS: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:48] <ROnewbie> soundray: "interface doesn't support scanning
[06:48] <silvia> hola
[06:48] <TheCougar> Nephelauxetic: well i have mysql installed else where already and the music is actaully across the network:)
[06:48] <OMGLAZERS> Pici: WEIRD. when I did !nvidia it just said it had nothing.
[06:49] <dyrne> OMGLAZERS: usually its just a sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx;sudo nvidia-xconfig
[06:49] <soundray> ROnewbie: are you sure it's connected now?
[06:49] <TheCougar> i don't store my music localy. causes to many issues among different systems
[06:49] <Nephelauxetic> TheCougar, how do you access it? smb?
[06:49] <OMGLAZERS> dyrne: pici got what I needed. thanks. reboot time.
[06:49] <TheCougar> Nephelauxetic: yeah
[06:49] <Nephelauxetic> ok
[06:49] <iter> anyone got ubuntu running on sun hardware? specifically an enterprise 250
[06:49] <ROnewbie> soundray: i'm connected to it ... :-))
[06:49] <noob> should I install unrar before I can unrar stuff with archive manager?
[06:49] <TheCougar> Nephelauxetic: only problem i ever have is the power going out and me complaining that i didn't setup samba to run on bootup of the server:)
[06:50] <Nephelauxetic> noob: unrar on console: $ unrar archive.rar
[06:50] <iter> if I do 'boot disk' from the ok> prompt I get boot: but can't get past it
[06:50] <razorednight> I wanna get dvd codec for feisty?
[06:50] <iter> enter drops me back to ok> prompt, linux doesn't work either
[06:50] <soundray> ROnewbie: okay, in that case, let's not complain. You can always go through the connection properties dialog to change networks.
[06:50] <soundray> ROnewbie: that's GUI as well, the way you like it ;)
[06:50] <noob> ok
[06:50] <iter> might have to go back to solaris, sigh
[06:50] <TheCougar> oh that and when i have to use an interface to access the mysql and i forget even what it is called let alone how to activate it:-/
[06:51] <Nephelauxetic> TheCougar, thats something you can configure easily :) I made once e script to start the machine via WoL so that I don't have to stand up from the couch xD
[06:51] <ROnewbie> soundray: oh, that would be perfect. I just wanted to make sure that available network will always show up there
[06:51] <gnychis_> how do i get network-manager to remember my WPA2 key?  is it supposed to just remember?
[06:51] <TheCougar> Nephelauxetic: lol yeah i know its easy to setup. its just 'meh i'll do that some other time its not like the system has restarted in the last two months';
[06:51] <ROnewbie> soundray: THANKS A LOT; this really makes my laptop be worth something
[06:52] <AaronMT> Hello, I have a problem with my Dell Inspiron laptop and resuming from standby. I am using Ndiswrapper for my Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-PCI Card (Broadcom Corporation).

[06:52] <Nephelauxetic> TheCougar, what a waste of energy! You must be american :P
[06:52] <TheCougar> that i am!
[06:52] <TheCougar> :)
[06:52] <alix_78> hello
[06:52] <ROnewbie> soundray: one more thing; assuming hell freezes over and RT61 start working well with NetManager, how should I undo this ?
[06:53] <dyrne> luca____: hi
[06:53] <Nephelauxetic> TheCougar, :)
[06:53] <luca____> dyrne: :)
[06:53] <soundray> ROnewbie: it certainly won't during this ubuntu cycle. When you come to upgrade to gutsy, you can do two things:
[06:53] <soundray> ROnewbie: run 'sudo chmod +x' on the two NM-related files in /etc/dbus-1/event.d
[06:54] <soundray> ROnewbie: or just 'sudo apt-get --purge network-manager ; sudo apt-get install network-manager'
[06:54] <TheCougar> Nephelauxetic: oh this might get complicated. doesn't look like amarok can see networked folders.
[06:54] <rodigut> is there a way to use strftime with a string?
[06:54] <rodigut> oops
[06:54] <rodigut> sorry wrong channel
[06:55] <TheCougar> guess i'm going to learn how to mount a network folder
[06:55] <ROnewbie> soundray: got that. wrote it downs, just in case. And another; how do I connect to a wired network, if need be ?
[06:55] <dyrne> TheCougar: id google for fstab example for samba or whatever
[06:56] <benzs_s> hi
[06:56] <TheCougar> ok
[06:56] <benzs_s> er dumbass question
[06:56] <benzs_s> how do i mount the cdrom to a folder >.>
[06:56] <soundray> ROnewbie: again, through the Network dialog, setting the properties of the interface in question
[06:57] <ROnewbie> soundray: you mean I uncheck "wireless connection", I check "wired connection", and I play with the connection properties ...
[06:57] <ROnewbie> ?
[06:57] <dyrne> benzs_s: mount /media/cdrom  will prob work if it is in fstab the full line would be sudo mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom
[06:57] <TheCougar> dyrne: what is the 'make link' option when right clicking a share in ubuntu?
[06:58] <soundray> ROnewbie: you can uncheck wireless, but I don't think you have to. It should set the default route to the interface you configured last.
[06:58] <dyrne> TheCougar: im not too familar with nautilus but id assume its a symlink..dunoo though
[06:59] <juanma_> hola
[06:59] <juanma_> hi

[07:01] <Stormx2> pihus_: Embedded, on their own, or both?
[07:01] <tsdh> Hi. In which package is aclocal?
[07:01] <pihus_> say whaat?
[07:01] <iter> ok sweet I was gettin FP Disabled after boot prompt
[07:01] <iter> turns out power cycling the server fixed it
[07:01] <Stormx2> tsdh: probably build-essential ?
[07:01] <iter> sun boot PROM is weird
[07:02] <tsdh> Stormx2: thx
[07:02] <ROnewbie> soundray: ok soundray ... thanks a bunch again
[07:02] <yaz> hola
[07:02] <yousefm87> hi everyone
[07:03] <soundray> ROnewbie: it took me a long time to figure this out -- glad it helps someone else
[07:03] <ROnewbie> soundray: the day network manager will do this too will be a great one for humanity, or at least the portion I represent ... but until then, this should be ok.
[07:03] <scales11> hello again, since network manager isnt working for me, i wanted to know about making a script for scanning and connecting to wireless networks.  can anyone offer some tips or a tutorial?
[07:03] <guillem101> tsdh, automake?
[07:03] <juanma_> hi i have any problem with mailboxes, anybody can help me ?
[07:03] <guillem101> tsdh, dpkg -S /usr/bin/aclocal-1.4
[07:03] <guillem101> automake1.4: /usr/bin/aclocal-1.4
[07:03] <dyrne> scales11: pretty easy. do you know the basic commands?
[07:03] <ROnewbie> soundray: maybe you should post this on the forums? it would help a lot of people ... i'm still too illiterate about these thing to understand all that I typed in, but it would be a good thing if you could
[07:04] <tsdh> guillem101: Ah, thanks.
[07:04] <soundray> ROnewbie: I don't think that day is far away now.
[07:04] <dyrne> scales11: if you could pastebin the output of iwlist wlan0 scan   i can give you a better example. im not sure of the output format
[07:04] <scales11> dyrne: well not really, i would like to lean them though :)
[07:04] <soundray> ROnewbie: there are a few posts regarding the issue, all slightly differently focussed
[07:04] <scales11> dyrne: ok what is the pastebin address?
[07:04] <soundray> ROnewbie: I like IRC best...
[07:05] <dyrne> !pastebin

[07:10] <BEASTlu5t> thx
[07:10] <godofredo07> should my rc.local be blank?
[07:10] <gnychis_> lenzzzinoleonard: can we help you?
[07:10] <soundray> godofredo07: what's the exact command line you used to open rc.local?
[07:10] <gnychis_> lenzzzinoleonard: can we help you?
[07:10] <quoppix> BEASTlu5t, can an xbox not access samba shares?
[07:10] <BEASTlu5t> no
[07:10] <quoppix> weak.
[07:10] <godofredo07> sudo gedit then location of gedit
[07:10] <lenzzzinoleonard> gnychis:yes.
[07:10] <carrasco> almudena.vvadelrey@hotmail.com
[07:10] <godofredo07> location of rc.local*
[07:10] <dyrne> scales11: this will be a few min
[07:11] <BEASTlu5t> unless you can WINE windows media center thru linux, haha.
[07:11] <dyrne> scales11: ill pastebin it
[07:11] <lenzzzinoleonard> gnychis: I need to install build-essential & kernel headers and i want to set apt to check for packages in particular location. how do i do it?
[07:11] <lenzzzinoleonard> gnychis_: I need to install build-essential & kernel headers and i want to set apt to check for packages in particular location. how do i do it?
[07:11] <yousefm87> can someone please help me? I am running 7.04 and am not gettin any sound
[07:11] <adcurti1> is there a package called ubuntu-games?
[07:11] <soundray> godofredo07: what do you enter as the location?
[07:11] <BEASTlu5t> you may have a point, VMware Vista thru linux....
[07:11] <BEASTlu5t> hmm
[07:11] <godofredo07> i don't remember uh...
[07:11] <godofredo07> i think i found thte default location on the web
[07:11] <tyler_d> yousefm87: soundcard type? ie. onboard or pci? type of board?
[07:12] <soundray> godofredo07: let's assume that that's the problem then.
[07:12] <godofredo07> but it opened and everything..
[07:12] <yousefm87> its on the intel 945pm chipset
[07:12] <yousefm87> i believe
[07:12] <godofredo07> i now see it in my home folder though
[07:12] <soundray> godofredo07: try 'gksudo gedit /etc/rc.local'. Then you'll find that it's not empty.
[07:12] <tyler_d> yousefm87: did you search for the drivers?
[07:12] <yousefm87> my hardware manager says 82801g (ICH7 family)
[07:12] <yousefm87> where could i find them
[07:12] <godofredo07> soundray: k i'll try it a sec...thx
[07:12] <yousefm87> i tried the alsa website
[07:12] <scales11> dyrne: thanks
[07:12] <gnychis_> lenzzzinoleonard: no clue
[07:12] <yousefm87> but i couldn't get anything from it
[07:12] <XAngelusX> hi to everybody
[07:13] <soundray> godofredo07: that's not the one. You've just created that one as part of your poorly informed attempts.
[07:13] <tyler_d> yousefm87: that would be an excellent start...
[07:13] <lenzzzinoleonard> some 1 plz help. I need to install build-essential & kernel headers and i want to set apt to check for packages in particular location. how do i do it?
[07:13] <godofredo07> soundray: okay...now what
[07:13] <XAngelusX> i have a problem , at the moment i could see videos , but know , when i update to feisty i only see green in the screen of the videos
[07:14] <soundray> godofredo07: whatever. Your question is now answered.
[07:14] <XAngelusX> anyone knows the solution?
[07:14] <tyler_d> yousefm87: did you find the driver package in the site... or have you even just tried searching package manager?
[07:14] <godofredo07> soundray: where do i add the code?
[07:14] <soundray> godofredo07: what code?
[07:14] <adcurti1> lenzzzinoleonard: to install the two things, you have th enable either the universe or muiltiverse repository
[07:14] <godofredo07> soundray: excuse me, the command for my soundcard
[07:14] <adcurti1> lenzzzinoleonard do you know how to do that?
[07:14] <godofredo07> soundray: that i want to run at startup
[07:14] <soundray> godofredo07: what command is that?
[07:15] <godofredo07> soundray: can i paste it here or should i use pastebin?
[07:15] <lenzzzinoleonard> adcurtil: no i dont
[07:15] <soundray> godofredo07: is it very long?
[07:15] <godofredo07> soundray: not real big
[07:15] <adcurti1> lenzzzinoleonard: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:15] <yousefm87> i am downloading an alsa driver
[07:15] <godofredo07> soundray: echo 'et.x86 0 0 direct' > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss
[07:16] <godofredo07> echo 'et.x86 0 0 disable' > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0c/oss
[07:16] <tyler_d> yousefm87: good
[07:16] <lenzzzinoleonard> adcurtil: ist ok if I PM u?
[07:16] <adcurti1> lenzzzinoleonard then remove the # from the lines that begin with "# deb" or "# deb-src"
[07:16] <soundray> godofredo07: okay, that goes in just before the last line (the one that says exit)
[07:17] <SleepingSloth> hello - need a quick bit of help please.... i've removed taskbar icons and I need to get them back
[07:17] <msoulier> hmm. w32codecs package is suggested, but it's unavailable
[07:17] <msoulier> that's no fun
[07:17] <lenzzzinoleonard> adcurtil: thats it?
[07:17] <godofredo07> soundray: okay...looks like were good to go...thank you for your help
[07:17] <adcurti1> lenzzzinoleonard it is also in this file (sources.list) that you would add a folder as a source for packages, but im not sure exactly how to do that
[07:17] <topaspv> hi! how do i find out which two files of a folder with 4400 files are missing compared to another folder? except copying one to the other..
[07:17] <Nephelauxetic> msoulier, download it from somewhere else
[07:17] <soundray> godofredo07: yw
[07:17] <adcurti1> lenzzzinoleonard: once you remove the # signs, save the file
[07:17] <SleepingSloth> like - the volume control icon and 'network connected' icon - and skype
[07:17] <SleepingSloth> can anyone help?
[07:17] <adcurti1> lenzzzinoleonard then run sudo apt-get update
[07:17] <soundray> SleepingSloth: right-click the panel and select "Add to panel"
[07:17] <the_gale> hi, i have a question about installing perl
[07:18] <msoulier> Nephelauxetic: sure, but shouldn't it be available?
[07:18] <SleepingSloth> hi soundray: it's not the application launchers that are gone, its the notification icons
[07:18] <Nephelauxetic> msoulier, http://www.debian-multimedia.org/pool/main/w/w32codecs/w32codecs_20061022-0.0_i386.deb
[07:18] <adcurti1> lenzzzinoleonard then you should be able to install build-essential and the other package
[07:18] <godofredo07> soundray: oh, one more ubuntu n00b question...I want to turn the volume up on my microphone for TeamSpeak and so i used alsamixer in the terminal...from there i am lost :(
[07:18] <Nephelauxetic> msoulier, I think there is some legal issue
[07:22] <soundray> SleepingSloth: do what I suggested and add Notification Area from the Utilities section
[07:22] <lenzzzinoleonard> adcurtil: thanx
[07:22] <soundray> godofredo07: arrow keys to find the microphone
[07:22] <SleepingSloth> ahah thanks soundray, thats the ticket :)
[07:22] <ROnewbie> soundray: well, i'd love to see it happen - RT61 to become supported, i mean.
[07:22] <ROnewbie> soundray: I'm off now
[07:22] <ROnewbie> soundray: thanks again
[07:22] <ROnewbie> soundray: take care
[07:22] <godofredo07> soundray: o thx
[07:22] <soundray> godofredo07: m to mute/unmute
[07:22] <topaspv> how do i find out which two files of a folder with 4400 files are missing compared to another folder? except copying one to the other..
[07:22] <soundray> ROnewbie: pleasure, glad it worked
[07:22] <jmantra> boycott lin/freespire: http://www.desktoplinux.com/news/NS9642338710.html
[07:22] <soundray> SleepingSloth: that won't add the volume icon, though
[07:22] <soundray> godofredo07: Esc to quit ;)
[07:22] <SleepingSloth> soudnray... volume icon wasnt missing - that was just an exmaple
[07:22] <godofredo07> soundray: :)
[07:22] <SleepingSloth> it was network, skype icon etc - but I didnt want to mention the skype icon because I didnt want to confuse people with application launchers....
[07:22] <TheCougar> i'm trying to connect a smb share to my ubuntu system by mounting it and i get '2705: session setup failed: ERRDOS - ERRnoaccess (Access denied.)'
[07:22] <SleepingSloth> soundray it was network, skype icon etc - but I didnt want to mention the skype icon because I didnt want to confuse people with application launchers....
[07:22] <adcurti1>  lenzzzinoleonard: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Personal?action=show&redirect=PersonalRepositories
[07:22] <frank__> Hi, I got 6 instances of getty in my process table and i heard you just need one how can i stop them?
[07:22] <gnychis_> how do you find what version of a package is installed?
[07:22] <Enron>  rpm -ivh snapapi26_modules-0.7.19-2.noarch.rpm
[07:22] <Enron> error: Failed dependencies:
[07:22] <Enron>         /bin/sh is needed by snapapi26_modules-0.7.19-2.noarch
[07:22] <Enron>         bash is needed by snapapi26_modules-0.7.19-2.noarch
[07:22] <Enron> crap
[07:22] <msoulier> hmm. thinkpad t30 and plugging in a usb stick does nothing in feisty
[07:22] <SleepingSloth> soundray - problem is solved, anyway. I know it was a simple one - but theyre only simple if you know whee to look.
[07:22] <SleepingSloth> soundray: cheers
[07:22] <Enron> Can someone tell me why its telling me i'm missing bash and /bin/sh
[07:22] <msoulier> /proc/interrupts shows a lot running on int 11
[07:22] <TheCougar> msoulier: did you have the usb stick or a usb stick inserted when you installed feisty?
[07:22] <tyler_d> yousefm87: any luck thus far?
[07:22] <kmaynard> Enron, what's telling you that
[07:23] <msoulier> TheCougar: nope
[07:23] <Enron> rpm
[07:23] <kmaynard> Enron, why are you using an rpm
[07:23] <Enron> I'm trying to install snapapi26 module so I can instlal Acronis agent
[07:23] <TheCougar> ah then i don't know:( it happend that i had a sdcard in when i installed ubuntu and it put it in the fstab file and caused big issues with detecting it after words
[07:23] <kmaynard> alien | Enron
[07:23] <kmaynard> whoops
[07:23] <Enron> because the instruction that acronis gave is that
[07:23] <kmaynard> !alien | Enron
[07:23] <ubotu> Enron: 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)
[07:23] <TheCougar> msoulier: just check your fstab though and make sure its not listed in there
[07:23] <Enron> I used alient already to convert
[07:23] <gnychis_> what should i install for CPU frequency scaling in ubuntu with a laptop?
[07:24] <msoulier> TheCougar: doesn't seem to be
[07:24] <godofredo07> soundray: is wine legal?
[07:24] <frank__> Hi, I got 6 instances of getty in my process table and i heard you just need one how can i stop them? turn them off and not have them start at boot up (ubuntu 7.04 feisty KDE desktop)specs
[07:25] <sigger> what file do I want to change to add to the PATH that I get when I start a shell?
[07:25] <tyler_d> goofred07: depends how much you drink and what you do after
[07:25] <tyler_d> godofredo07: and if your driving
[07:25] <ivanneto> I would like to upgrade my kernel on edgy. Where can I find updated stock kernels (packaged)?
[07:26] <msoulier> TheCougar: I think I'll try noapic
[07:26] <Enron> Whats the path to ubuntu kernel source?
[07:26] <shiester_miester> hey guys
[07:26] <godofredo07> is it possible that the new nvidia drivers are less combatible with my geforce 6600?
[07:27] <godofredo07> compatible*
[07:27] <shiester_miester> are there any graphical apps for configuring samba?
[07:27] <peepsalot> how can i list all installed packages?
[07:27] <shiester_miester> like, does it have a dialogue somewher
[07:27] <shiester_miester> *somewhere
[07:27] <smacky_> i got a avi file how do i convert it
[07:27] <tyler_d> shiester_miester: nope, I have looked and come up empty handed, if you find one though let me know
[07:28] <sigger> what file do I want to change to add to the PATH that I get when I start a shell? [sorry for reask, inet got cut off for a lil bit] 
[07:28] <shiester_miester> damn
[07:28] <tyler_d> shiester_miester: for what purpose are you looking for?
[07:28] <Skullk> hey, I got a noob question, just installed ubuntu, wanted to do something but it says, that I`m not root, whatas the def password for root account?
[07:28] <tsdh> I want to compile an X11 driver. But it fails because of several dependencies like xproto, fontsproto, etc. Where are they in? I have xserver-xorg-dev installed...
[07:28] <Enron> Whats the path to ubuntu kernel source?
[07:28] <godofredo07> skullk: if you are the only one...putin your password
[07:28] <shiester_miester> tyler_d, well i gathered that samba is the best way to share files with a windows computer
[07:28] <ivanneto> peepsalot: dpkg -l
[07:28] <shiester_miester> which is what i want to do
[07:28] <Skullk> godofredo07 the one from my account ?
[07:28] <shiester_miester> but it seems very awkward to use
[07:29] <godofredo07> skullk: yeah
[07:29] <Skullk> it says the login or pass is wrong
[07:29] <shiester_miester> whereas in windows it is extremely easy and can be done in like 3 mouse clicks
[07:29] <usuario> juani
[07:29] <Skullk> godofredo07 whats the root account right? root or ROOT?
[07:29] <Skullk> or Root ?
[07:29] <magnet> root
[07:29] <heroin>  shiester_miester what can be done in 3 clicks?
[07:29] <MStublefield> I've done it in Mandriva and SuSE pretty easily... didn't require any configuration, just typed smb://compyname/share
[07:29] <magnet> but it's disabled by default on ubuntu
[07:29] <Nivu> d
[07:29] <juan278> !beryl
[07:29] <shiester_miester> sharing a folder on a network :P
[07:29] <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
[07:29] <Nivu> hi
[07:30] <shiester_miester> and i said "in LIKE 3 clicks" - it was not a statement of absolute fact
[07:30] <heroin> shiester_miester: u can share a folder in 0 clicks w. linux :)
[07:30] <godofredo07> how do i make feisty automatically connect to my wired connection :( ?
[07:30] <shiester_miester> har har, heroin
[07:30] <Skullk> !root
[07:30] <ubotu> do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[07:30] <shiester_miester> i believe you missed my point in that it is extremely easy
[07:30] <msoulier> aha! noapic worked!
[07:30] <heroin> shiester_miester: but w. nautilus its right click > share folder > select SMB then OK
[07:30] <heroin> thats 3 clicks + 1 drag
[07:31] <fredrichl> Does fglrx not work together with xinerama? i lost acceleration
[07:31] <shiester_miester> heroin, fantastic
[07:31] <shiester_miester> thats exactly what i was looking for
[07:31] <heroin> shiester_miester: it was?
[07:31] <shiester_miester> well, im assuming that it works
[07:32] <shiester_miester> all i want to be able to do is access files on a windows computer connected with a crossover cable
[07:32] <Skullk> godofredo07 By default, the root account is locked in Ubuntu. This means you cannot login as root or use su. Instead, the installer will setup sudo to allow the user that is created during install to run all administrative commands.
[07:32] <shiester_miester> nothing fancy, no hardcore networking setups or firewalls or NAT or subnets or anything like that
[07:32] <Skullk> godofredo07 if I didnt set the root accoutn active in install, can I do it somehow?
[07:32] <rohan> is there any way to disable libata in feisty, without rebuilding the kernel ? e.g. by blacklisting a module or so ?
[07:32] <godofredo07> i cannot get feisty to automatically connect to my wired connection :( It is my only network! How do I make it the default?
[07:32] <Pici> !root
[07:32] <ubotu> do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[07:32] <BEASTlu5t> except if you dont use root as your normal user, it sucks.
[07:32] <BEASTlu5t> :)
[07:33] <godofredo07> skulllk: can you describe the situation?
[07:33] <BEASTlu5t> If you play any games, they will not work unless your root because you dont have permission to write configs
[07:33] <BEASTlu5t> unless there is a fix?
[07:33] <shiester_miester> BEASTlu5t, yes you do
[07:33] <godofredo07> skullk: can you describe the situation?
[07:33] <NigelS> BEASTlu5t: how do you reason that?
[07:33] <godofredo07> skullk: terminal or gnome?
[07:33] <tsdh> Ah, I found the x11-proto packages.
[07:33] <shiester_miester> games do not have some special permissions just for them where you can't save the configs
[07:33] <BEASTlu5t> Ive set up my game folder for all users RW access, game still says cant create file. permission denied
[07:33] <Skullk> godofredo07 I`m a new in this, wanted to do something with apt-get
[07:34] <Skullk> it sayd I`m not root
[07:34] <shiester_miester> is the game on an NTFS volume
[07:34] <Skullk> when I tryed to change user to root
[07:34] <godofredo07> shiester_miester: how can i make ubuntu automatically connect to my wired connection?
[07:34] <Skullk> it sayd wrong account name or password
[07:34] <shiester_miester> godofredo07, no idea
[07:34] <BEASTlu5t> no, using quake3, in /usr/local/games/quake3
[07:34] <Skullk> pass was the same as my user, login tryed root or ROOT
[07:34] <Skullk> and*
[07:34] <shiester_miester> oh ok
[07:34] <godofredo07> skullk: type sudo then the apt-get command
[07:34] <Pici> Skullk: prefix the command with sudo
[07:34] <Pici> Skullk: and use your password
[07:34] <shiester_miester> are you running the linux build of quake 3?
[07:34] <Skullk> hmm then its sudo apt-get install update?
[07:34] <BEASTlu5t> yes
[07:34] <Pici> Skullk: Yes.
[07:34] <shiester_miester> well thats odd then
[07:34] <Skullk> its apt-get or apt - get ?
[07:34] <shiester_miester> sudo quake 3? :P
[07:34] <BEASTlu5t> Copied the pak0.pak off cd and ran linux 1.32b patch
[07:34] <Pici> Skullk: apt-get
[07:35] <shiester_miester> lol probably not a good idea
[07:35] <Skullk> tnx
[07:35] <NigelS> BEASTlu5t: you've done something wrong then because there's no reason whatsoever why you would not be able to write there if you are allowed to
[07:35] <BEASTlu5t> My point exactly
[07:35] <NigelS> BEASTlu5t: not having a root account is rather a good approach
[07:35] <BEASTlu5t> I run Sudo quake3 to run it, folders are RW access, nothing.
[07:35] <godofredo07> shiester_miester: how can i make feisty automatically connect to wired connection?
[07:35] <Shin_Gouki> hello i want to share soem files on the net from my PC, what programm i use for that?
[07:35] <shiester_miester> godofredo07, you asked me that exact same question like 2 minutes ago
[07:36] <Skullk> last question: I tryed to copy some of my music to the desktop (from the 2nd hdd where is XP) it sayd theres not enof place on hdd... wtf? I`m using 40gb hdd for ubuntu, and ubuntu takes aobut 5gb
[07:36] <NigelS> BEASTlu5t: what happens when you just run quake 3 without root permissions? I don't think you should have put it in /usr/local anyway really - your home dir makes more sense
[07:36] <godofredo07> shiester_miester: sorry
[07:36] <shiester_miester> what makes you think that i, in particular, know the answer?
[07:36] <shiester_miester> im just some guy who is hanging around here :P im not some kind of linux pro
[07:36] <magnet> godofredo07: use the network manager applet next to the clock
[07:36] <dyrne> scales11: sorry i just had a customer call. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25577/  i havent tested it but it should work. this uses read to get a variable you can also assigne em a few diff ways one is like ESSID=$(iwlist ath0 scan | grep ESSID |somesedstuff)
[07:36] <Andeh> Hi
[07:36] <godofredo07> magnet: i can connect to it...but, i can't make it automatically connect on startup
[07:37] <BEASTlu5t> Nigel
[07:37] <Shin_Gouki> hello i want to share soem files on the net from my PC, what programm could u suggest for me? FTP or other?
[07:37] <Andeh> When i render something in blender and click the X button of the render window, blender crashes and the terminal tells me blender lost its connection to X. What's this?
[07:37] <BEASTlu5t> I get into a server and it spams Couldn't create baseq3.cfg
[07:37] <magnet> godofredo07: I don't have wifi so I can't help you sorry =)
[07:37] <heroin> Shin_Gouki: FTP server.. vsftp should do
[07:37] <Andeh> It doesnt happen on other OSs
[07:37] <heroin> Shin_Gouki: u can just access ur files with your logins
[07:37] <BEASTlu5t> and Punkbuster doesnt work because it says it doesnt have permission to create temp files and delete them
[07:37] <BEASTlu5t> So i have to run it in root.
[07:38] <shiester_miester> holy crap its almost 4am
[07:38] <shiester_miester> what the hell happened to me
[07:38] <Pici> Running things like that as root is not a good idea.
[07:38] <NigelS> BEASTlu5t: well if you've chowned the dirs to your name recursively and chmodded the dirs recursively with +rw then it ought to work - are you sure it's trying to create these config fils where you think they are being created?
[07:38] <heroin> shiester_miester:  idk
[07:38] <shiester_miester> "yay i like ubuntu" *clicks for several hours* "OMG SUNRISE"
[07:38] <BEASTlu5t> yes, to /usr/local/games/quake3/baseq3/
[07:38] <mylogic> shiester_miester: been there, done that ;)
[07:38] <NigelS> Shin_Gouki: you certainly could create a vsftp server on your machine to share them, check out the package
[07:39] <shiester_miester> doesnt it freak you out when the sunrise lets you know that its time to sleep
[07:39] <mylogic> shiester_miester: where do you live?
[07:39] <scales11> dyrne: ok thanks! i will give it a shot
[07:39] <heroin> shiester_miester: not really
[07:39] <shiester_miester> well, its not sunrise yet :P but it will be in about half an hour
[07:39] <shiester_miester> australia
[07:39] <NigelS> BEASTlu5t: do an ls -al of the dir structure and let us see
[07:39] <shiester_miester> east coast
[07:39] <Skullk> who can help: I tryed to copy some of my music to the desktop (from the 2nd hdd where is XP) it sayd theres not enof place on hdd... wtf? I`m using 40gb hdd for ubuntu, and ubuntu takes aobut 5gb
[07:39] <Shin_Gouki> nigelS, sudo apt-get install vsftp? didnt work?
[07:39] <shiester_miester> i have an exam to study for tomorrow...today
[07:40] <BEASTlu5t> i will in a minute, im in windows atm cause wine doesnt like me :)
[07:40] <shiester_miester> or to rephrase, i have study to do :P the exam isnt until the 19th
[07:40] <scales11> ok, so what to i rename a text file to to run it as a script?
[07:40] <aleal> ola
[07:40] <graeme_> does anyone have pd extended installed in ubuntu?
[07:40] <heroin> shiester_miester: man having worked on a computer the whole night is actually.. cool :D
[07:40] <NigelS> Shin_Gouki: vsftpd - other commands that are useful include apt-cache search to find packages or otherwise just use synaptic
[07:41] <Pici> scales11: chmod +x scriptname  Then you can do ./scriptname
[07:41] <shiester_miester> heroin, yeah it is
[07:41] <aleal> iufhuydgsfvuygeu
[07:41] <aleal> ufdytgvuihg

[07:41] <BEASTlu5t> NigelS: Do you want me to login to root or my user?
[07:41] <CPUFreak91> Can I install Feisty on an existing ext3 partition without having to format it?
[07:41] <NigelS> scales11: set it +x for execute though the "standard" script extension is usually sh
[07:41] <NigelS> BEASTlu5t: always log in as your user - you've enabled the root account?
[07:41] <BEASTlu5t> As i mentioned before yes, had to to play my game.
[07:41] <scales11> NigelS: ok what do you mean +x?
[07:42] <NigelS> BEASTlu5t: I presumed you were running it with sudo which is different to logging in as root
[07:42] <NigelS> BEASTlu5t: go in as your user
[07:42] <BEASTlu5t> No, I was in the root account :), Okay.
[07:42] <Pici> scales11: `chmod +x filename`
[07:42] <Pici> scales11: That will set it as an executable
[07:42] <NigelS> scales11: chmod a+x <file> sets that file to be executable by all, for example - in nautilus you can right click to set permissions
[07:43] <Shin_Gouki> nigelS, how do i config this is there a gui frontend?
[07:43] <godofredo07> magnet: i don't have wifi either...that's the problem...i liked it on edgy when it would automatically connect :(
[07:43] <heroin> Shin_Gouki:  u installed vsftpd?
[07:44] <Shin_Gouki> heroin, yes how do i config now?
[07:44] <heroin> Shin_Gouki: it already works :) u should now just forward port 21 on your router and your set
[07:44] <magnet> godofredo07: you want to automatically connect using ethernet?
[07:44] <sikor_sxe> hey, since i upgraded to feisty i cannot type " and
[07:44] <godofredo07> magnet: yes sir
[07:44] <heroin> Shin_Gouki: but if u want there probally is a config file ~/.vsftpd or something like that cant rember
[07:44] <sikor_sxe> and the " with the single line anymore
[07:44] <Shin_Gouki> heroin which directroys are free to access?
[07:45] <magnet> godofredo07: oh, that's easy. just edit /etc/network/interfaces
[07:45] <shiester_miester> its time to go!
[07:45] <heroin> Shin_Gouki: atm your home dir is shared w. your login
[07:45] <sikor_sxe> i tried all us keyboard settings in the selector applet
[07:45] <sikor_sxe> what could be wrong_
[07:45] <sikor_sxe> ?
[07:45] <TheCougar> I need to create a directory at the prompt. is it sudo mkdir /<directory> ?
[07:45] <godofredo07> magnet: i have heard that before, but edit what exactly?
[07:45] <NigelS> Shin_Gouki: have a look at the man page for config options
[07:45] <scales11> NigelS: ok well i did that and it seems to run, but closes
[07:45] <magnet> godofredo07: it shoud look like "iface eth0 inet dhcp"
[07:45] <Shin_Gouki> heroin, how i create user to access?
[07:45] <magnet> if eth0 is your interface
[07:45] <NigelS> scales11: well what is the script?
[07:46] <magnet> godofredo07: how do you connect to the internet? do you have a router?
[07:46] <fable> hi
[07:46] <scales11> NigelS: it is a wireless thing that dyrne made
[07:46] <fable> flooo
[07:46] <fable> ist jmd da ?
[07:46] <sikor_sxe> the key that used to have " types  now
[07:46] <godofredo07> magnet: yes i have a router
[07:46] <heroin> Shin_Gouki: well basically vsftpd scans your users and then it makes ftp accounts for them
[07:46] <NigelS> TheCougar: mkdir is certainly the command
[07:46] <heroin> Shin_Gouki: man vsftpd
[07:46] <cyberix> Does Ubuntu have something that looks like this?-> http://www.gnome.org/projects/NetworkManager/images/wireless-at-tealuxe.png
[07:46] <NigelS> scales11: you ran it from a terminal?

[07:47] <TheCougar> NigelS: ok:-/

[07:48] <sikor_sxe> what could be the problem, when i cannot type a certain character anymore (the quote)?
[07:48] <magnet> and it doesn't work?
[07:48] <sikor_sxe> the x-server?
[07:48] <godofredo07> magnet: no sir
[07:49] <sikor_sxe> however it does work as expected, when i select a german keyboard
[07:49] <sikor_sxe> but i have an us one

[07:50] <NigelS> scales11: right, I see. I've got to dash but you know ideally you can select that stuff through the GUI.  The script is designed to be run in a terminal apps->accessories->terminal and then type the name of the script i.e. from the same directory ./<script>

[07:51] <chazco> i'm having some minor issues when resuming Ubuntu 7.04 from hibernation... firstly, bluetooth dies and cannot be restored without a full reboot (restarting the service doesnt do it)... secondly, the LAN doesnt always come back up, it jams at requesting DHCP. Any ideas?
[07:51] <magnet> godofredo07: you should have "Wired link" something?
[07:52] <godofredo07> magnet: wired connection....correct
[07:52] <magnet> yep
[07:52] <magnet> if you go to properties, is DHCP enabled?
[07:52] <juan278>  i cant install bvidia-settings on fiesty is this a bug or just a dependency mismatch

[07:54] <magnet> godofredo07: (my ubuntu is translated but..) you should have something like "wandering mode"?
[07:54] <magnet> uncheck that one
[07:54] <funkySt> anyone who has a guide for installing X1400 gfx in Fiesty 7.04 ?
[07:54] <godofredo07> magnet: it was already unchecked

[07:56] <ProN00b> are there any actively developed rts games for linux ? (i already know stratagus stuff, don't tell me about it)
[07:56] <magnet> godofredo07: however we'll have to try some way to check how to get connected properly, so you'll have to reboot a few times
[07:56] <magnet> godofredo07: that's what I was trying to avoid
[07:56] <void^> alienseer23: put 'Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"' in the device section. or use google.
[07:56] <cjsoftuk_> suggestions anyone as to how to kill the noise?

[07:57] <GigaClon> ProN00b, wildlands is rts, but prolly not what you are looking for
[07:57] <scales11> does anyone know how i can remove the option of standby?
[07:57] <magnet> godofredo07: ok at next reboot, try sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[07:57] <scales11> like take the icon off the panel?

[07:58] <magnet> godofredo07: ok
[07:58] <kubus> is here anyone who speak polish?
[07:58] <sskroeder> magnet: nope ..
[07:58] <BEASTlu5t> Maybe that works for XP, Vista just booted right back up after doing that.
[07:58] <kubus> :P
[07:59] <magnet> kubus: dasvidania
[07:59] <sskroeder> magnet: Neither in sources.list or in sources.list.d
[07:59] <hendrixski> I can't connect to the ubuntu repositories :-(
[07:59] <Shin_Gouki> heroin,  i still have prob
[07:59] <magnet> sskroeder: yes, yes. you have an unsigned repository in there :)
[07:59] <jmitchj> Can someone help me with a wireless problem?
[07:59] <magnet> sskroeder: or one of the repositories has been hacked
[07:59] <sskroeder> magnet:  oh ?? ...
[07:59] <magnet> sskroeder: and then the system would be doing its job in warning you ;)
[08:00] <kubus> i know that my english is terrible :P
[08:00] <Shin_Gouki> heroin, when i try to login it says: only anonymous login, but i think i disabled that in the config file??
[08:00] <hendrixski> magnet, ??? the repos got hacked...? is that why I can't get into one now?
[08:00] <BEASTlu5t> Can someone help me recover grub for a Vista Machine?
[08:00] <kubus> I have a problem with vmware player
[08:00] <kubus> who help?
[08:00] <hendrixski> BEASTlu5t, yeah, uninstall vista :-)
[08:00] <BEASTlu5t> let me run video to my xbox360 to linux
[08:00] <BEASTlu5t> and i will gladly.
[08:00] <hendrixski> kubus I can try
[08:01] <yigal> i need help with server-thin client configuration. please msg me if anyone can help
[08:01] <BEASTlu5t> err linux to xbox360

[08:01] <kubus> yeah
[08:01] <kubus> :)
[08:01] <hendrixski> kubus, you know there's a drink in poland by that name :-)
[08:01] <kubus> :P
[08:01] <kubus> yes
[08:01] <kubus> but i don't like it
[08:01] <hendrixski> I've had problems with vmware player ... whenever I got a kernel update it would stop working
[08:01] <kubus> so i have vmware player
[08:02] <kubus> but
[08:02] <BEASTlu5t> reinstall it after kernel update?
[08:02] <BEASTlu5t> :)
[08:02] <Pici> !enter | kubus

[08:02] <kubus> i don't know how it works
[08:02] <hendrixski> kubus, I live in the USA and I drive to a Polish imports store to buy more kubu
[08:02] <kubus> sorry
[08:02] <hendrixski> kubus,  no, you only need to reinstall vmware tools :-)
[08:02] <BEASTlu5t> Anyone knowledgeable on Recovering GRUB on a Vista machine?
[08:03] <sskroeder> magnet: I'm very grateful that it wants to warn me ;-D ... even when i want to install a Ubuntu approved package like cvs and such ... I haven't got any other repos in sources.list or as entries in sources.list.d - so i'ld gather that  http://dk.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ has a problem --- or that my trustdb.gpg is borked somehow ...
[08:03] <Pici> !grub | BEASTlu5t
[08:03] <ubotu> BEASTlu5t: 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
[08:03] <BEASTlu5t> Sorry Pici, that is for XP
[08:03] <godofredo07> magnet: i'm baaaaaaack
[08:03] <kubus> ? sorry but i not understand
[08:03] <BEASTlu5t> Does not work with Vista.
[08:03] <hendrixski> kubus, because vmware has a kernel module.. which for some reason doesn't play nicely with the new kernel... so just do apt-get reinstall the vmware tools and vmware player should work
[08:03] <kubus> reinstall
[08:03] <Pici> BEASTlu5t: hm
[08:03] <sskroeder> magnet: i'm just wondering why it's begun warning me all of the sudden -- i haven't changed anything here
[08:04] <BEASTlu5t> Kubus: No way, I've done WAY to much to my linux to just reinstall it :)
[08:04] <godofredo07> magnet: do i have to copy and paste?
[08:04] <jmitchj> Can someone help me with a wireless problem?
[08:04] <magnet> godofredo07: did it work by itself?
[08:04] <magnet> godofredo07: when you typed the command in, did it connect yourself without having to do it graphically?
[08:04] <hendrixski> lol, kubus no no.. only reinstall the vmware tools
[08:05] <kubus> ok, but vmware works... i just don't know  how to install XP in it
[08:05] <magnet> sskroeder: then maybe a repository has changed its key, but that shouldn't happen if it's properly managed
[08:05] <hendrixski> kubus, ooohhh OK
[08:05] <hendrixski> kubus, sorry... I misunderstood your question
[08:05] <BEASTlu5t> I guess Vista users will have to wait until a patch comes out, me = sad :(
[08:06] <sskroeder> magnet: can i browse to the repo via http and get a new key ?
[08:06] <godofredo07> magnet: uh, yeah
[08:06] <Tom47> BEASTlu5t: read here  http://apcmag.com/5045/how_to_dual_boot_vista_with_linux

[08:06] <kubus> there is a window and player wont me to find a file (.vmx) where i can find right file

[08:07] <hendrixski> hhhmmm

 hi u still there i still got problem with the ftop aserver?
[08:11] <scales11> ok i got a tricky issue for you all.  i am finding that the last 20% of volume displayed on gnomes volume bar is controlling 70% of the actual volume output.  it seems that my volume controls are mis-calibrated.  any suggestions?
[08:12] <magnet> scales11: your gnome volume bar isn't the good device
[08:12] <scales11> magnet: i dont follow
[08:12] <magnet> scales11: each "audio device" has many "virtual devices"
[08:12] <godofredo07> magnet: i'm pastebinning for your proofread :)
[08:13] <magnet> scales11: the PCM output, or Wave Center, etc, have more impact on volume
[08:13] <Pici> BEASTlu5t: Actually, it looks like theres already vista information in the !dualboot factoid.
[08:13] <Maverynthia> :X
[08:13] <jmitchj> Can someone help me with a wireless problem?
[08:13] <magnet> scales11: I guess you've set it up to "Main volume"
[08:13] <Gerro> jmitchj: sure?
 do u know how du i disable anonoymus access?
[08:13] <scales11> magnet: perhaps
[08:13] <magnet> scales11: right click on the volume icon, then Preferences, and select another ouput
[08:14] <carrot_> in ubuntu how can i view what services are currently on for each run level and how can i turn services off from the command line?
[08:14] <scales11> k
[08:14] <godofredo07> magnet: here is the config...is it correct? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25585/
[08:14] <scales11> magnet: ok done
[08:14] <jmitchj> Gerro: When i sign in using the 2.6.20-15 kernel i can connect wireless, but when i switch to 2.6.20-16, i can't connect...any ideas?
[08:14] <sskroeder> magnet: hmm .. problem solved by running sudo apt-get update first -- it fetched an updated Release.gpg apparently ...
[08:14] <Maverynthia> I guess the answer is Unknown here.. :X
[08:14] <Gerro> carrot_: install sysv-rc-conf
[08:14] <jorda1> I have a 7900GS hooked into my sony HDTV (CRT) via a DVI-HDMI cable.  Feisty will not let me do 'HD' resolutions, even with the nvidia driver
[08:14] <godofredo07> magnet: uh, i added two lines above it earlier....are those correct...i noticed they had ' instead of "
[08:15] <magnet> ok sskroeder :)
[08:15] <sskroeder> magnet: after the update, i don't get the warnings anymore
[08:15] <Gerro> jmitchj: what did you do to get your wireless working?
[08:15] <magnet> godofredo07: good think I proofreed
[08:15] <magnet> godofredo07: you're doing a recursive file editing in there ;P
[08:16] <magnet> godofredo07: just put what's in the echo's quotes (ie: /etc/init.d/networking restart)
[08:16] <E-Jey> Hey
[08:16] <jmitchj> Gerro: I have a Broadcom 4318, so i use ndiswrapper, which had been working all along, in Dapper and Feisty, until the 20-16 upgrade
[08:16] <Gerro> E-Jey: heeey what up
[08:16] <Gerro> jmitchj: reinstall nidswrapper for the new kernel
[08:16] <godofredo07> magnet: i don't understand...could you edit on pastebin and paste the correct version here? :)
[08:16] <jmitchj> Gerro: I did
[08:16] <E-Jey> nothing special actually, wrong channel :)
[08:17] <scales11> magnet: actually i am controlling the volume through my keyboard, (fn+pgup or pgdwn)  the volume meter pops up and as it moves i notice incorrect increments
[08:17] <magnet> godofredo07: done
[08:17] <Tom47> Shin_Gouki: i have no personal expertise in this although in skimming the item i gave you earlier i believe that subject is covered
[08:17] <sskroeder> magnet: anyways  thanks for the help ;-D ... caio!
[08:17] <magnet> scales11: there's a bug with keyboard volume, sorry
[08:17] <rinky3> in a bit of a muddle here, anyone know how to tranfer an existing process to a different terminal?
[08:17] <magnet> scales11: you can't choose what output to control, it's been reported to GNOME
 thers a lot disscuiosn but i dotn know.. USUAlly just one command from yes to know but seems not to work :(
[08:18] <Gerro> jmitchj: try make uninstall before you reinstall it and make sure your using the up to date header files for the new kernel
[08:18] <godofredo07> magnet: url?
[08:18] <scales11> humm.  so which should i try to control?
[08:18] <magnet> godofredo07: oops :) http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25587/
[08:18] <beast|lu5t> NigelS: Are you still here?
[08:18] <jmitchj> Gerro: How to i do that for the header files? I am pretty new to linux
[08:18] <scales11> magnet: so which meter should i try to control
[08:19] <magnet> scales11: depends on your card
[08:19] <magnet> scales11: I use PCM or Wave Center or AC97
[08:19] <beast|lu5t> What is the command in terminal to show read/write access to certain folders?
[08:19] <Tom47> Shin_Gouki: i recall you had to list authorised users in some file .... but i cannot help you beyond pointing you to that howto and if that is inadequate perhaps other google searches may help??
[08:19] <mc44> jmitchj: what does ndiswrapper -l say?
[08:19] <nickrud> beasty, ls -l is simplest
[08:19] <magnet> beast |_ocke ls -l
[08:19] <baconbits> Can someone explain (To a linux newb) how to navigate directories in the command line? CD just seems to have no effect...plus I have no idea how to type out a path to a file in Linux. I need to access my USB Drive.
[08:19] <magnet> damn you all have nicknames starting with the same letter :P
[08:19] <nickrud> erm, sorry beasty
 well i want to use a "local" user so i did enable "local suer enable =yes, still no go :/
[08:20] <Gerro> jmitchj: apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.20-16 and you will need to get ndiswrapper from http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/joomla/
[08:20] <magnet> baconbits: the command is cp in lowercase
[08:20] <enviouz> my usb drive doesnt seem to be working. do i need the ati drivers or something?
[08:20] <magnet> baconbits: cd*
[08:20] <beast|lu5t> drwxrwxrwx 10 chris chris 4096 2007-06-11 10:50 quake3
[08:20] <hendrixski> I still have a weird problem with apt
[08:20] <nickrud> baconbits, cd (lowercase) is correct; cd /media  , then ls  should show your usb device
[08:20] <godofredo07> magnet: so how come that command has no need for echo and " " and such?
[08:20] <magnet> baconbits: (for "change directory"), ie cd where-you-want-do-go
[08:20] <godofredo07> magnet: sorry n00b question i know
[08:20] <beast|lu5t> NigelS: drwxrwxrwx 10 chris chris 4096 2007-06-11 10:50 quake3 .... Wont write to folder.
[08:21] <mc44> Gerro: the ndiswrapper kernel module won't have changed in the update, I suspect the problem would be elsewhere
[08:21] <jmitchj> Gerro: I have already done to uninstall, install with ndiswrapper....but i'll try the header update
[08:21] <hendrixski> apt can't find archive.ubuntu.com for some reason
[08:21] <baconbits> magnet I got that it was cd where-I-want-to-go but I didnt know how t owrite where I want to go
[08:21] <magnet> godofredo07: well originally I planned to avoid your editing of the file manually, but one dumb dev put an exit 0 at the end of the default rc.local file
[08:21] <hendrixski> anyone else have this problem?
[08:21] <beast|lu5t> I think NigelS is AFK, Anyone mind heping me?
[08:21] <mc44> jmitchj: whats the output of "ndiswrapper -l" in a terminal?
[08:21] <navets> can somebody help me getting opengl to work with wine and warcraft 3
[08:21] <baconbits> nickrud Is that always where it is? Is there a chance that won't work?
[08:22] <Gerro> mc44: exactly he needs ndiswrapper for new kernel
 i install lot of programs but this SHOULd ne simple but seems the CONFIG file is simply TOO complicate for easy conf
[08:22] <hendrixski> anybody elses apt-get acting retarded?
[08:22] <mc44> Gerro: no he doesnt...
[08:22] <nickrud> baconbits, by default ubuntu mounts removeable devices under /media
[08:22] <godofredo07> magnet: aw well that wasn't to painful. ubuntu still rocks
[08:22] <mc44> Gerro: it comes with it...
[08:22] <magnet> baconbits: mhh well you can list the sub directories with "ls" (LiSt) and/or use the tab key (twice) to list the subdirectories/choices
[08:22] <jmitchj> Gerro: It says it's already the newest version on the headers
[08:22] <Enron> can someone help please, I can't figure this out, I need to install snapapi module in ubuntu for acronis to work. I'm getting http://phpfi.com/241762
[08:22] <godofredo07> magnet: thank you for all your help...
[08:22] <Gerro> mc44: and the one it comes with is old and prone to many bugs listed in the newer ndiswrapper changelog
[08:22] <baconbits> magnet thanks for the help
[08:22] <magnet> godofredo07: well it doesnt rock regarding their new Nm applet (even if that's mainly from Novell and RH)
[08:22] <baconbits> nickrud thanks for the help
[08:22] <magnet> godofredo07: try rebooting before thanking me ;P
[08:22] <mc44> Gerro: except it was working for him before, so thats isn't likely to be the problem
[08:23] <godofredo07> magnet: will do
[08:23] <Gerro> mc44: the ubuntu devs are beant on using the poorly done firmware hack method that gives low bandwidth and range
[08:23] <baconbits> be back if it doesn't work, lol!
[08:23] <Gerro> mc44: yes before on an older kernel with an older ndiswrapper designed to work with that kernel and previous ones
[08:23] <Enron> Anyone?
[08:23] <navets> when I try to run warcraft 3 with -opengl it gets very buggy can anyone help
[08:23] <enviouz> anybody have any ideas on my issue?
[08:23] <Megaqwerty> how do I use hypens as what I'm searching for in grep?
[08:23] <Enron> Can someone help me with this http://phpfi.com/241762
[08:23] <mc44> Gerro: the update to -16 from -15 on feisty won't have changed anything to do with ndiswrapper
[08:24] <enviouz> navets:  you may try the winehq chan
[08:24] <Thomas__> I have a "small" problem with ubuntu, initrd and booting from /dev/mdX
[08:24] <magnet> enviouz: ati drivers have nothing to do with USB drives
[08:24] <navets> enviouz: they always tell me its not a wine issue and to ask here
[08:24] <Thomas__> The initrd-image isn't capable of opening /dev/mdX when trying to start the raid-devices
[08:24] <Thomas__> How do I make udev create the correct dev-files?
[08:24] <Enron> Anyone?
[08:24] <enviouz> magnet:  not even if i have an ati chipset?
[08:25] <Enron> where else can I get support or help for ubuntu?
[08:25] <magnet> enviouz: mhh, and everything else would work properly save USB support? unlikely
[08:25] <mc44> Enron: the forums, or launchpad, or the mailing lists
[08:25] <Enron> which would be the fastest
[08:25] <d2dchat> What is the best way to get Konqueror on my Gnome environment ?
[08:25] <Enron> it's urgent I get this done by today
[08:26] <d2dchat> Do I need to install all of the KDE components too?
[08:26] <PriceChild> Enron, ask your question and someone will answer if they know how.
[08:26] <jvolkman> d2dchat, 'sudo apt-get install konqueror'
[08:26] <enviouz> ahh ok. idk maybe it has something to do with my video. it did work then i switched from pci card to onboard video and thats when the problem started
[08:26] <Enron> PriceChild I asked 3 times
[08:26] <LaZorra> hello friends
[08:26] <William__> God Day All
[08:26] <Gerro> mc44: if you compiled ndiswrapper from source then yes it will have changed
[08:26] <d2dchat> jvolkman: but that will bring down all of the KDE libraries right?
[08:26] <magnet> enviouz: (1) does the usb drive work on other computers?  (2) does it add something to dmesg when you plug the drive?
[08:26] <Enron> Can someone help me with this http://phpfi.com/241762 I'm trying to get snapapi module so that I can install acronis agent
[08:26] <jmitchj> Gerro: I get this message on uninstall.../bin/rm: cannot remove `/sbin/loadndisdriver': Permission denied
[08:26] <jmitchj> make: *** [uninstall]  Error 1
[08:26] <d2dchat> jvolkman: and will it merge smoothly with Gnome?
[08:26] <jvolkman> d2dchat, it will bring down what's needed for konqueror
[08:27] <Gerro> jmitchj: use make uninstall as root
[08:27] <mage> huh
[08:27] <enviouz> adds nothing and it works fine in windows (same box)
[08:27] <Maverynthia> if I have 80G to partition what's a good size for each partition?
[08:27] <jvolkman> d2dchat, it won't affect gnome
[08:27] <PriceChild> Enron, you're building your own kernel?
[08:27] <mage> something has created a link on my desktop linking to boingo.com
[08:27] <mage> whats created that?
[08:27] <mage> !boingo
[08:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about boingo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:27] <d2dchat> jvolkman: and I will be able to run it through Gnome right?
[08:27] <PriceChild> Enron, oh just kernel modules...?
[08:27] <Devyll> hello .. can you tell me where can I find the ati drivers for ubuntu ? (I need them for installing beryl)
[08:27] <jvolkman> d2dchat, yes
[08:27] <hwilde> mage, boingo is a wireless hotspot provider
[08:27] <Enron> yes just module
[08:27] <PriceChild> !beryl | Devyll
[08:27] <ubotu> Devyll: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[08:27] <hwilde> !ati | Devyll
[08:27] <ubotu> Devyll: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:27] <mage> im a tad worried about hotspots arbitrarily putting things on my desktop
[08:28] <jvolkman> d2dchat, you can run any X11 app in any desktop environment
[08:28] <magnet> d2dchat: what you're doing is a bad idea ; you'll double memory usage if you install KDE only for Konq. Now if you're web designer, that's still useful
[08:28] <mc44> Gerro: did he do that?
[08:28] <LaZorra> Hello everybody. Is there somebody here familiar with "dsslive" ? ? ?
[08:28] <mage> hwilde: well I know that, I just want to know whats put that link on my desktop
[08:28] <Gerro> jvolkman: certain games don't run in beryl though :(
[08:28] <Gerro> mc44: most likely it sounds so
[08:28] <d2dchat> magnet: I am a web developer..
[08:28] <oaurono> I am not the administrator on my system how do change that
[08:28] <d2dchat> magnet: but I won't be doubling memory usage all the time will i?
[08:28] <chispitas> hola
[08:29] <Gerro> mc44: he hasn't asked any odd questions about how to compile and its only conclusion I can come to
[08:29] <Pici> mage: Are you sure you didnt accidentally drag it there from a browser session?
[08:29] <nixnoob> why does the low latency kernel break everything?
[08:29] <mage> hmm
[08:29] <magnet> d2dchat: no, only when you use KDE apps
[08:29] <godofredo07> magnet: it worked...you should get paid for this!
[08:29] <d2dchat> magnet: that's not bad then
[08:29] <Tom47> !es| chispitas
[08:29] <ubotu> chispitas: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[08:29] <mage> oh, I was having trouble with that
[08:29] <Maverynthia> -_-
[08:29] <mage> thanks Pici
[08:29] <Pici> mage: No problems
[08:29] <magnet> godofredo07: well feel free to stay here while I make an Amazon wishlist ;-)
[08:29] <chispitas> dod estais
[08:29] <Megaqwerty> chispitas: actually, you have to be the administrator to add administrators :-\
[08:30] <nixnoob> the lowlatency kernel broke my video my mouse and my wifi...
[08:30] <d2dchat> magnet: I just figured out today that it uses the same rendering engine as Safari
[08:30] <godofredo07> magnet: take a look at mine :) jk
[08:30] <d2dchat> so I'm psyched =D
[08:30] <d2dchat> lol
[08:30] <Maverynthia> I guess myquestions are to n00b to be answered....even by a bot...
[08:30] <Gerro> maverynthia: what question?
[08:30] <enviouz> any ideas for a good firewall?
[08:30] <magnet> d2dchat: lol, in fact Safari (more precisely Webkit)  forked from Konq (more precisely, KHTML)
[08:30] <hendrixski> Why can't APT my dchroot connect to archive.ubuntu.com when my regular environment has no problem with it?
[08:30] <oaurono> ??
[08:30] <oaurono> can someone plz help me
[08:31] <magnet> !ask
[08:31] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:31] <hendrixski> !ask oaurono
[08:31] <jmitchj> Gerro: ok...ndiswrapper reinstalled...does testing it require a reboot?
[08:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ask oaurono - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:31] <hendrixski> !ask | oaurono
[08:31] <ubotu> oaurono: please see above
[08:31] <Gerro> jmitchj: no just rmmod then modprobe ndiswrapper
[08:31] <d2dchat> magnet: well I hope they amount of difference is minimal
[08:31] <Gerro> jmitchj: remember to do ndiswrapper -i .inf
[08:31] <tubasoldier> just installed fiesty. whats the deal with K3B?
[08:31] <d2dchat> magnet: because I remember I was having trouble doing iframe ajax stuff with Safari..
[08:31] <magnet> d2dchat: since Apple's bad behaviour at first, they're sharing their VCS so it should be quite similar
[08:31] <nixnoob> tubasoldier what do u mean?
[08:31] <Phat420> hi
[08:31] <jvolkman> gerro, beryl isn't a desktop environment =)
[08:31] <jmitchj> Gerro: Even if the driver was installed before?
[08:32] <Tom47> oaurono: precede the command with sudo
[08:32] <oaurono> !ask how do I change my administrator setttings?
[08:32] <tubasoldier> nixnoob: I mean it freezes up and wont burn anything
[08:32] <nixnoob> mine works...
[08:32] <tubasoldier> some issue with "wodim"?
[08:32] <hendrixski> Why can't APT my dchroot connect to archive.ubuntu.com when my regular environment has no problem with it?
[08:32] <Elvizar> Beryl? I am having trouble with Beryl...
[08:32] <godofredo07> magnet: uh i have another question :) are you still game?
[08:32] <magnet> oaurono: what do you mean?
[08:32] <Gerro> jvolkman: it is too
[08:32] <Tom47> !sudo | oaurono
[08:32] <ubotu> oaurono: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[08:32] <Gerro> jvolkman: different window manager and xorg instructions
[08:32] <magnet> godofredo07: yeah i'll do my wishlist concurrently ;)
[08:32] <d2dchat> magnet: I like how Safari loads faster than IE in Windows
[08:32] <d2dchat> lol
[08:33] <Gerro> jmitchj: yes especially if it was installed before
[08:33] <godofredo07> magnet: Are You Familiar With TeamSpeak And Enemy Territory?
[08:33] <nixnoob> why does the lowlatency kernel break my mouse?
[08:33] <jvolkman> Gerro: it's a window manager, not a desktop environment
[08:33] <oaurono> i can't move files to my root b/c it says i don't have permission
[08:33] <magnet> d2dchat: I don't know, but it seems Safari sucks even more on Windows than on OSX
[08:33] <jvolkman> Gerro, there's a big difference
[08:33] <d2dchat> magnet: haha yikes
[08:33] <magnet> oaurono: b/c ?
[08:33] <d2dchat> magnet: sounds like IE for OSX
[08:33] <Megaqwerty> magnet: lol
[08:33] <oaurono> because
[08:33] <Gerro> jmitchj: you installed the driver before with the old ndiswrapper on a different kernel, that is equivalent to installing it to some computer located on the moon for all it matters
[08:33] <jmitchj> Gerro: It says driver bcmwl5 is already installed
[08:33] <magnet> k :)
[08:33] <Shin_Gouki> hello i have a problem with vsftpd i cant DISABLe anonymous access, anyoen idea?
[08:33] <hendrixski> nixnoob, I don't think that a low latency kernel would break a mouse... there's probably a different culprit
[08:34] <nixnoob> hendrisxski my old kernel works fine....
[08:34] <magnet> oaurono: what do you want to move and where to?
[08:34] <bryan_> Whats the command to redetect the monitor and display settings ?
[08:34] <Gerro> jmitchj: yes do rmmod ndiswrapper to remove the old ndiswrapper from memory, its not on hard drive but its still in memory
[08:34] <Elvizar> Wow, this place is busy

[08:35] <cotyrothery> thanks you
[08:36] <MacDrunk> hello all
[08:36] <Elvizar> Thanks price!
[08:36] <nixnoob> hendrixski loading my old kernel fixes all the issues...
[08:36] <magnet> oaurono: sudo as root
[08:36] <hendrixski> nixnoob, hhmmm... Beryl on a server... hhhmmmm  if you want peak performance then don't even install a GUI
[08:36] <phatso84> (i have the sources installed)
 this conf file is somehow strange to me , usually from what i understand the seeting i had to uncomment 1 thing from the default file still it fails
[08:36] <oaurono> in graphics mode
[08:36] <magnet> oaurono: meaning, prepend "sudo" to your commands
[08:36] <jmitchj> Gerro: ok, rmmod ndiswrapper, ndiswrapper -i bcmwl5.inf and then modprobe ndiswrapper...done...anything else?
[08:36] <magnet> godofredo07: how is it messing with your card?
[08:36] <hendrixski> nixnoob, umm... there's also another kernel for servers  I think it has the same latency... can't remember the name
[08:36] <nixnoob> hendrixski I would not be using beryl on the session but the mouse problem makes it difficult to operate
 do i need to do soemthing that the server uses my changed cofn file? or just change and it aplpys?
[08:36] <cotyrothery> I cant find my gateway
[08:37] <Gerro> jmitchj: if you didn't do ndiswrapper -m before do it now, that info is saved in configuration elsewhere
[08:37] <MacDrunk> hey anyon here has installed the wine HQ repositories?
[08:37] <cotyrothery> is it broadcast address
[08:37] <Megaqwerty> Shin_Gouki: oh, you haven't restarted vsftp after the changes? Hold on.
[08:37] <hendrixski> nixnoob, oh... so it won't be a dedicated game server... you'll use it as a regular desktop as well?
[08:37] <bryan_> Whats the command to re-detect the monitor and display settings ?
[08:37] <godofredo07> magnet: it seems to fade darker randomly and sometimes I get little black lines that flicker just enough to bug me. I first assumed it was an overheating issue. So I got A HUGE pci fan... No Difference Though :(
[08:37] <Megaqwerty> Shin_Gouki:  sudo /etc/init.d/vsftpd restart
 i havnt how do i do this?
  ahh thx"!
[08:37] <heroin> Shin_Gouki: still having problems w. that vsftp daemon?
[08:38] <Megaqwerty> Shin_Gouki: You're welcome.
[08:38] <magnet> godofredo07: are you using beryl/compiz?
[08:38] <hendrixski> nixnoob, there's also a server type kernel... forgot the name, something like big iron or something... but I think it also has lower latency... also can handle bigger addressing if you have a lot of RAM
[08:38] <nixnoob> hendrixski no no I would simply switch sessions if i wanted it to run the server... and just not use the desktop environment
[08:38] <cotyrothery> is the broadcast address the gateway
[08:38] <jmitchj> Gerro: done
[08:38] <MacDrunk> i try to install the repositories for wine HQ and after i made a sudo apt-get update a error is displayed
[08:38] <yell0w> uhhm guys, i need some suggestions for a ftp client , filezilla's killing me
[08:38] <MacDrunk> any ideas
[08:38] <godofredo07> magnet: NOPE! But, apparently everyone does
[08:38] <magnet> godofredo07: well I don't :)
[08:39] <godofredo07> magnet: i see it all the time..but no clue how it could help me :(
[08:39] <jmitchj> Gerro: ready to give it a try?
[08:39] <magnet> godofredo07: it couldn't; but it could be a cause to your problem, now I know it isn't
[08:39] <hendrixski> nixnoob,  oh... in that case... you could just have it load the lowlatency kernel only when you want to use it as a server?  or dual boot it?
  hm kinda yes
[08:39] <Gerro> jmitchj: sure hope it works
[08:39] <hendrixski> nixnoob, those are my best suggestions.   kernel issues are kind of hard to tinker with.  I usualy just work my way around them.
[08:39] <ProN00b> are there any actively developed 2d rts games for linux ? (i already know stratagus stuff, don't tell me about it)
[08:40] <nixnoob> hendrixski well yea thats the idea but it doesnt solve the mouse problem...
[08:40] <magnet> godofredo07: you could try newer drivers from nvidia, but it's a pain, you have to build them each time you upgrade your kernel
[08:40] <Enron> Can anyone here help me compile snapapi module ?
[08:40] <PriceChild> !offtopic | ProN00b
[08:40] <ubotu> ProN00b: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[08:41] <hendrixski> nixnoob, I don't know then... like I said usually I just work my way around it
  thx for ur help it works now!!
[08:41] <godofredo07> magnet: could it be that i'm running 1024x768 at 55hz and then running the game at same res but diff hz?
[08:41] <MacDrunk> so any iedas
[08:41] <hendrixski> Why can't APT my dchroot connect to archive.ubuntu.com when my regular environment has no problem with it?
[08:41] <nixnoob> hendrixski I'm going to try the old of the two lowlatency kernels.. maybe ill get lucky.
 thx for ur help it works now i jsut tried: vftod restart..., but now its ok :)
[08:41] <magnet> godofredo07: it may
[08:41] <bryan_> on dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg , it lists 31 3-4 letter codes for chipset manufacturers - which one is intel ?
[08:42] <danshtr> hi all, 7.04: is it possible to "Connect to other wireless network" using the command line?
[08:42] <NeXtDaY> again: I am using Ubuntu 7.04 and the screen goes blank with some lines that I can't understand then the computer goes down. this is happening every 20-30 minutes. any suggestions please?
[08:42] <godofredo07> magnet: its pretty weird...when i had edgy i could run insane resolutions at 70hz now, 1024 is the max?
[08:42] <magnet> danshtr: you can do everything using the command line
[08:42] <magnet> godofredo07: no that's another problem; maybe with your X config?
[08:42] <mitch_> Gerro: Hey man, it works!! Thanks a lot :)
[08:43] <Megaqwerty> ProN00b: Have you checked out http://www.ubuntugames.org/strategy ?
[08:43] <danshtr> magnet: i know. but which command line should i use without breaking networkManager
[08:43] <Gerro> mitch_: no problem need anything else?
[08:43] <magnet> danshtr: don't know, i dont use NM
[08:43] <bryan_> its too busy here - is there a faq for resolution issues - or a separate room ?
[08:43] <mitch_> Gerro: Not right now, but i'll remember that you helped me :)
[08:43] <mitchbones> hey mitch_ ^_^
[08:43] <danshtr> is NetworkManager ubuntu app or gnome app?
[08:44] <mitchbones> nice name
[08:44] <godofredo07> ProN00b: have you checked into GLEST.ORG?
[08:44] <magnet> danshtr: Gnome from Novell/RH, modified by Ubuntu
[08:44] <spacemandc> I'm getting an error "File system doesn't have expected sizes for windows to like it."  Can I ignore it?
[08:44] <bryan_> i just need to know which code is for intel ?
[08:44] <MStublefield> Question: I asked this in the SuSE channel the other day, and I was curious what the response would be here. Who here has tried both OpenSuSE and Ubuntu, which do you prefer, and why?
[08:44] <godofredo07> magnet: I only want to change the hz but, no clue on editing x config..I did that yesterday. and am now running a clean install of feisty because of it :(
[08:45] <ProN00b> godofredo07, yeah, thats why i added 2d to my question ^_^
[08:45] <danshtr> magnet: thanks
[08:45] <bryan_> anyone?
[08:45] <MacDrunk> MStublefiedl ubuntu
[08:45] <magnet> godofredo07: first try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:45] <godofredo07> ProN00b: wesnoth?
[08:45] <spacemandc> I'm getting an error "File system doesn't have expected sizes for windows to like it."  Can I ignore it?
[08:45] <godofredo07> magnet: I'm afraid
[08:45] <magnet> godofredo07: don't be, it backs your settings up
[08:45] <godofredo07> magnet: here we go.... :(
[08:46] <stipp> hi
[08:46] <spacemandc> I'm getting an error "File system doesn't have expected sizes for windows to like it."  Can I ignore it?
[08:46] <Enron> magnet can you help me, I need to compile snapapi kernel module =x
[08:46] <bryan_> magnet: when running dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, it asks me to select the chipset of the graphics card - its an intel graphics card ---   which code is intel ?
[08:46] <Nuked> why is ubuntu's version of xchat out of date?
[08:46] <magnet> lol :) i'm harassed!
[08:46] <magnet> :P
[08:46] <magnet> Enron: a sec
[08:46] <Enron> Thank you
[08:46] <Gerro> Enron: you still need help?
[08:47] <mc__> sorry for ot: guys please have a look at this
[08:47] <ProN00b> godofredo07, lol, thats turn based -_-

[08:47] <th_> hi, in Ubuntu/Kubuntu it possible to make ctrl+shift+arrows work the same way as it does in Windows, in Firefox's address bar, ie. instead of going all the way to home/end it goes to the next slash for example..? a bit hard to explain but I hope you know what I mean :)
[08:47] <magnet> bryan_: either intel or i810, intel is newer, get the one that works the best for you
[08:47] <spacemandc> I'm getting an error "File system doesn't have expected sizes for windows to like it."  Can I ignore it?
[08:47] <bryan_> i810 , thanks - i'll try it
[08:47] <alieas> Hi, I'm trying to do some "apt-get installs" on my web-dev server, running Breezy.  The sources.list seems to be outdated... is Breezy still supported?
[08:47] <magnet> spacemandc: where/when are you getting this error
[08:48] <magnet> alieas: yes, do sudo apt-get update before
[08:48] <alieas> magnet:
[08:48] <godofredo07> magnet: now i have the blue configure screen....shall i proceed (gasp)?
[08:48] <alieas> magnet:  most of the servers are not responding...
[08:48] <magnet> godofredo07: yep
[08:48] <magnet> alieas: manually edit the sources.list file to change the hostnames if they're down
[08:48] <mitch_> mitchbones: Hey there

[08:49] <MacDrunk> is ubuntu linux faster that a windows ????
[08:49] <th_> I found it myself :) in case anyone else was wondering it is here: http://ramikayyali.com/archives/2006/02/19/fffixes
[08:49] <Nephelauxetic> MacDrunk, no
[08:49] <magnet> alieas: ok then, breezy must not be supported anymore! ;p
[08:49] <heroin> alieas: yah i think breezy has been removed :X
[08:49] <alieas> magnet:  OH NO!
[08:49] <magnet> alieas: upgrade to dapper, it's painless
[08:49] <alieas> heroin:  hmmm
[08:49] <heroin> alieas: i had that a while ago aswell
[08:49] <Nephelauxetic> MacDrunk, But my ubuntu boots faster
[08:50] <heroin> alieas: best option is to dist upgrade
[08:50] <alieas> its our Dev server we have a lot of work being done on it... I've used "apt-get upgrade" on personal systems with POOR results.   :)
[08:50] <godofredo07> magnet: are you sure....because I wasted 6 hours of my life because of this prompt.......
[08:50] <spacemandc> magnet:I'm getting an error installing ubuntu 7.04 part 5 "File system doesn't have expected sizes for windows to like it."
[08:50] <magnet> alieas: do dist-upgrade, it solves conflicts
[08:50] <alieas> magnet:  ok... maybe I'll just install everything I need from source to see if thats possible first...
[08:50] <alieas> Thanks everyone !
[08:50] <magnet> godofredo07: I am, as long as you don't restart X, nothing bad can happen, and I'll tell you how to restore your conf in case something goes wrong
[08:51] <heroin> alieas: its not apt-get its via dist-upgrade
[08:51] <magnet> heroin: yes it is apt-get
[08:51] <magnet> heroin: dist-upgrade is an apt-get command
[08:51] <heroin> alieas: but yah if its on a production server i suggest u find a mirror which still works?
[08:51] <NeXtDaY> why I am being ignored?!!
[08:51] <heroin> magnet: oh..ok
[08:51] <caleb_> Why does OpenOffice only render fonts properly on KDE?
[08:51] <heroin> NeXtDaY:  what is ur question?

[08:51] <Nephelauxetic> NeXtDaY, ask
[08:51] <NeXtDaY> again: I am using Ubuntu 7.04 and the screen goes blank with some lines that I can't understand then the computer goes down. this is happening every 20-30 minutes. any suggestions please?

[08:52] <NeXtDaY> it is really annoying me!
[08:52] <spacemandc> magnet: Is it dells fat16 partition
[08:52] <magnet> NeXtDaY: what kind of lines?
[08:52] <Nephelauxetic> NeXtDaY, ACPI is not working and the computer overheats
[08:52] <godofredo07> magnet: use kernel framebuffer device?
[08:52] <NeXtDaY> Nephelauxetic: Yep
[08:52] <magnet> spacemandc: then ignore it ;)
[08:52] <magnet> godofredo07: nope
[08:52] <spacemandc> ok

[08:53] <NeXtDaY> Nephelauxetic: ok. hold on please..
[08:54] <magnet> NeXtDaY: youre computer must be overheating, that's a well-known bug
[08:54] <magnet> godofredo07: yep
[08:54] <DemonSamurai> anyone can help me install ATI drivers?
[08:54] <Nephelauxetic> NeXtDaY, ok
[08:54] <cables> !anyone | DemonSamurai
[08:54] <ubotu> DemonSamurai: 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?
[08:54] <Nephelauxetic> DemonSamurai, sure. what's wrong?
[08:54] <godofredo07> magnet: x.org server modules to be loaded my default
[08:54] <Bit_mess> heroin, Thanks!
[08:54] <heroin> DemonSamurai: feisty comes w. good ati drivers
[08:54] <MacDrunk> demon
[08:54] <magnet> godofredo07: keep the default
[08:54] <heroin> Bit_mess:  make sure to mount -a :)
[08:54] <DemonSamurai> yes but i need to activate or something
[08:54] <heroin> Bit_mess: and read the wiki entry on mount :)
[08:55] <DemonSamurai> or enable open GL

[08:55] <heroin> DemonSamurai:  chance is that opengl is already activated
[08:55] <godofredo07> magnet: Write Default Files Section To Config File?
[08:55] <magnet> godofredo07: yep
[08:55] <Bit_mess> heroin, mount -a ?
[08:55] <NeXtDaY> magnet: thanks again.. no solution for that bug yet or just ignore it?
[08:55] <godofredo07> magnet: autodetect monitor?
[08:55] <heroin> Bit_mess: sudo mount -a will mount everything in fstab
[08:55] <magnet> Stormx2: chmod /dev/fuse
[08:55] <Nephelauxetic> DemonSamurai, did you do the tutorial? Whats the problem then?
[08:56] <Bit_mess> heroin, ok, I got it.
[08:56] <Nephelauxetic> NeXtDaY, it will seriously damage your system if you ignore!
[08:56] <heroin> Bit_mess: so when u add an entry to fstab u still need to tell fstab to actually DO it.. unless u reboot
[08:56] <magnet> Stormx2: chmod g+rw /dev/fuse (if it's in group users, it should be OK)
[08:56] <DemonSamurai> i am no reading about ATI
[08:56] <DemonSamurai> thnx anyway
[08:56] <Stormx2> magnet: That's what I did. Thanks anyway
[08:56] <Stormx2> magnet: (it worked)
[08:56] <Bit_mess> heroin, I'm glad you told me because I was going to reboot. :)
[08:56] <magnet> Stormx2: k np :)
[08:56] <Nephelauxetic> NeXtDaY, add noapic to the kernel params

[08:57] <godofredo07> magnet: method for selecting monitor characteristics? Simple/Medium/Advanced
[08:57] <MacDrunk> yes heroin is right
[08:58] <Timmae_> lol
[08:58] <heroin> Bit_mess: but i suggest u use wiki.ubuntu.com before asking here.. but whatever u prefer
[08:58] <magnet> godofredo07: if you know your monitor's specs, Advanced, else Simple
[08:58] <DemonSamurai> what is the command to open Restricted Drivers Manager from terminal?
[08:58] <Enron> Anyone here install acronis agent, or compiled snapapi26 kernel module before?
[08:58] <Timmae_> irc.nonsense.IRC-Mania.d:6667
[08:58] <godofredo07> magnet: i'll go with simple
[08:58] <NeXtDaY> Nephelauxetic: how do i add?
[08:58] <DemonSamurai> what is the command to open Restricted Drivers Manager from terminal?
[08:58] <Nephelauxetic> DemonSamurai, it is already installed in the linux-restricted-modules

[08:59] <Bit_mess> heroin,  I guess I'm lazy. I usually ask here and if I dont get an answer, I start looking at Google
[08:59] <godofredo07> magnet: looks like i'm near the end......write monitor sync ranges to config file?
[08:59] <magnet> godofredo07: yep if you know them
[08:59] <Nephelauxetic> DemonSamurai, try to load "modprobe fglrx" and check dmesg
[08:59] <godofredo07> magnet: if I don't?
[08:59] <godofredo07> magnet: are they on the back of the monitor?
[08:59] <Nephelauxetic> DemonSamurai, then change /etc/X11/xorg.conf, Device to fglrx
[08:59] <heroin> Bit_mess: google isnt that great :) u should use wiki's and ubuntu forum.. google can give u loads of crappy results which suggest u do simple things in complicated ways
[09:00] <Nephelauxetic> DemonSamurai: that's it
[09:00] <Nephelauxetic> NeXtDaY, it's easy, do gksudo /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:00] <Enron> magnet have you compiled snapapi26 module for kernel before?
[09:00] <cables> Nephelauxetic: what are you talking about?
[09:00] <magnet> godofredo07: no, but in the manual or on the web
[09:00] <Bassetts> how can i make a command run at every startup? I want to run setkeycodes e034 129
[09:00] <magnet> Enron: nope
[09:00] <Nephelauxetic> NeXtDaY, eh gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:00] <cables> Nephelauxetic: that's better :)
[09:01] <cables> Nephelauxetic: no it isn't
[09:01] <`davo> Hey guys...I've got about 40gb of free space, already partitioned, is it possible to take 20gb of that and unpartition it for a dual boot? <--anyone?
[09:01] <cables> NeXtDaY: he means "gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" i think
[09:01] <cables> Nephelauxetic ^^
[09:01] <Nephelauxetic> cables: no
[09:01] <magnet> Enron: you should try with module-assistant
[09:01] <Nephelauxetic> that's another problem :)
[09:01] <phatso84> ahem. this is the 3rd time i ask this question: ...
[09:01] <heroin> `davo: gparted or qtparted
[09:01] <rustalot> `davo: what os are you running right now?
[09:01] <NeXtDaY> cables ok :>

[09:01] <phatso84> does anyone have iwlwifi installed on ubuntu

[09:02] <NeXtDaY> Nephelauxetic: thanks... i am pasting the log for you now...
[09:02] <Laibsch> I just got myself a vserver.  I reinitialised it with ubuntu ;-)  I was told a root password but of course on Ubuntu that should not exist and I cannot log in via root@$myserver.  Anybody know how this is *usually* dealt with for ubuntu vservers?
[09:02] <hendrixski> I just rebooted and apt-get still doesn't work in my chroot
[09:02] <Bit_mess> heroin, I'm reading wiki.ubuntu.com now.
[09:02] <Enron> magnet how does that work
[09:02] <phatso84> or can anyone help me out with iwlwifi on ubntu
[09:02] <rustalot> `davo: yeah, use gparted
[09:02] <KomBo> who can i install java fr firefiox?
[09:02] <Nephelauxetic> NeXtDaY, than in the kernel line add "noapic", then reload grub (sudo grub-install /dev/sda) (or hda)
[09:02] <NeXtDaY> Nephelauxetic: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25592/
[09:02] <godofredo07> magnet: uh so if i have no clue......what do i do :) that rhymed!
[09:02] <`davo> I've got space already partitioned, I can unpartition it?
[09:02] <hendrixski> this is really annoying
[09:02] <magnet> Enron: you get the module-source package, then let m-a instal it properly for you
[09:02] <cables> KomBo: use this command: < sudo aptitude install sun-java6-plugin >
[09:02] <hendrixski> I have development work to do
[09:02] <heroin> Bit_mess: iam going to take a bath i b back in 30
[09:02] <hendrixski> and the tools just don't work
[09:02] <hendrixski> not funny..  who can help me?
[09:02] <magnet> godofredo07: hehe well yes anyway, maybe it'll guess them for you, it does on my monitor ;)
[09:03] <Bit_mess> heroin,  thanks
[09:03] <hendrixski> my chroot isn't connecting to apt, please help
[09:03] <cables> !patience | hendrixski
[09:03] <ubotu> hendrixski: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[09:03] <NeXtDaY> Nephelauxetic: in which section is the kernal line please?
[09:03] <hendrixski> apt-get works in my regular environment.. but I do my development in a chroot and it's not working there
[09:03] <rustalot> `davo: you can add, resize, move(sometimes), delete, etc...
[09:03] <magnet> hendrixski: of course, the /usr/bin directory isn't in your chroot
[09:03] <MacDrunk> !diference gnome and kde
[09:03] <cables> Nephelauxetic: wait a sec, weren't you helping him with fglrx a minute ago? Then you said menu.lst instead of xorg.conf, and now you're talking about kernel lines? I'm confused.
[09:04] <`davo> rustalot: Right, but what I mean is, I've got no total free space that isn't partitioned with a file system.  I want to take hda, and split it in two
[09:04] <hendrixski> cables I've been here like 5 times with this question... and every time I end up answering quetsions for like 10 other people.. but never get mine
[09:04] <phatso84> what can i do about "kernel makefile not found" when trying to "make" something
[09:04] <magnet> hendrixski: if you want to use apt-get, you'll have to jail it in the chroot
[09:04] <MacDrunk> can someone eleborate on the diference gnome and kde
[09:04] <magnet> hendrixski: i don't know but it seems to me fakeroot would be more appropriate for you?
[09:04] <cables> hendrixski: because they don't know the answer. Helping other people doesn't mean you can do this in the channel.
[09:04] <Nephelauxetic> cables that was another guy :)
[09:04] <cables> oh
[09:04] <kazim59> hi...
[09:04] <Nephelauxetic> cables: don't mix it up :D
[09:04] <cables> so i messed him up mor.
[09:04] <rustalot> `davo: resize the existing one, and then make a new one
[09:04] <cables> more.
[09:04] <Nephelauxetic> NeXtDaY, Jun 14 13:11:05 ubuntu kernel: [13824.448000]  Critical temperature reached (96 C), shutting down. <[09:04] <rustalot> `davo: but
[09:04] <hendrixski> magnet, so creating a jail for /usr/bin may help?
[09:05] <godofredo07> magnet: i'm restarting....let's see if i busted it again :)
[09:05] <`davo> but?
[09:05] <NeXtDaY> Nephelauxetic LOL
[09:05] <cables> MacDrunk: KDE is more configurable through the GUI, but harder to use than GNOME.
[09:05] <NeXtDaY> Nephelauxetic so? ;-)
[09:05] <tondar> hey all
[09:05] <`davo> rustalot: resizing is grey'd out
[09:05] <Nephelauxetic> NeXtDaY, that's serious! did you add the "noapic"?
[09:05] <magnet> hendrixski: you'll have to make them available in your chroot; i dont think symlinks work though
[09:05] <tondar> whats a good gui vpn app?
[09:05] <MacDrunk> why cable
[09:05] <kazim59> I wish to know how to use the NOPASSWD option in visudo... once I crashed my Linux (and had to login into single user mode to fix things)
[09:05] <MacDrunk> ???
[09:05] <NeXtDaY> Nephelauxetic No.. I can't find the kernal line
[09:05] <rustalot> `davo: you might need to bott of a live cd in order to partiton your main one
[09:05] <magnet> tondar: none, the best suck too (xtightvncviewer)
[09:05] <cables> MacDrunk: if you want to try it out, just do "sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop" and it'll install KDE for you. Then you can select it in Sessions next time you log on, and you'll be on KDE.
[09:05] <hendrixski> magnet, hhmmm...  'cause it used to work
[09:05] <Stormx2> 96 degrees?
[09:05] <`davo> rustalot: I can run gparted from the live disk?
[09:06] <Stormx2> o.O
[09:06] <tondar> magnet: none?!!
[09:06] <NeXtDaY> Yeah :((
[09:06] <Nephelauxetic> NeXtDaY, you have the right file?
[09:06] <Stormx2> oh wait
[09:06] <MacDrunk> ok but i can unistalled later right if i don like it
[09:06] <Stormx2> I guess that's fairengheit
[09:06] <NeXtDaY> Yes.. xorg.conf
[09:06] <Stormx2> or however you spell that word.
[09:06] <Stormx2> Bah
[09:06] <cables> MacDrunk: yep, with "sudo aptitude remove kubuntu-desktop"
[09:06] <tondar> guys any sugg for vpn in ubuntu
[09:06] <Nephelauxetic> NeXtDaY, no that's the wrong one :)
[09:06] <anim8> I installed wine from the add/remove menu. Where is it now?
[09:06] <rustalot> `davo: I think yo need to 'install' it through synaptic while on the live cd
[09:06] <Nephelauxetic> NeXtDaY, /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:06] <Stormx2> if it were celcius it would probably have melted completely.
[09:06] <NeXtDaY> Nephelauxetic lol come on..
[09:06] <cables> Nephelauxetic: sorry, I guess I messed him up.
[09:06] <NeXtDaY> ok ok
[09:06] <cables> NeXtDaY: sorry, I messed you up before
[09:06] <magnet> hendrixski: well a fakeroot does that, exactly it fakes / to a part of your userland. of course it can't access files in a parent-directory
[09:06] <MacDrunk> also cable the same progs y have installed on GNOME would be displayed on KDE???
[09:07] <sean_> !ati
[09:07] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:07] <magnet> hendrixski: s/chroot/fakeroot
[09:07] <NeXtDaY> cables: No problem :)
[09:07] <anim8> !wine
[09:07] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[09:07] <cables> MacDrunk: Yes, they would, and vice-versa.
[09:07] <eduardo> what m

[09:07] <Stormx2> anim8: /msg ubotu wine
[09:07] <tondar> dyrne: yeah
[09:07] <`davo> rustalot: is it possible to take the freespace and just mount windows to it?
[09:07] <hendrixski> magnet, that sounds like the right solution for me then
[09:07] <hendrixski> magnet, thanks :-)
[09:07] <cables> !anyone | george_
[09:07] <ubotu> george_: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[09:07] <dyrne> tondar: cisco type?
[09:07] <magnet> hendrixski: np, good luck :)

[09:08] <george_> OK, I need to delete something but can't because I don't have permission. I can't change permissions

[09:08] <Stormx2> !es eduardo
[09:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about es eduardo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:08] <tyler_d> you know how under places you can map network drives, ftp sites etc... well how do you delete one??
[09:08] <NeXtDaY> Nephelauxetic: ok... hold on...
[09:08] <magnet> MacDrunk: no.

[09:08] <anim8> How do I tell Ubuntu to use a new video card? I'm switching from ATi to Nvidia
[09:08] <Stormx2> >.<
[09:08] <cables> MacDrunk: I never said that. I prefer Gnome.
[09:08] <Nephelauxetic> NeXtDaY, depending on your kernel... it should look like this
[09:08] <rustalot> `davo: like resize linux partition > install Windows onto freed space?
[09:08] <Stormx2> Looks like I'm tired too.
[09:09] <dyrne> tondar: ive only used vpnc. you can install that. there are guis for it but i just do it from a terminal. basially sudo vpnc --domain=mywork     and it will prompt you for stuff. otherwise you can fill out the config file in /etc but i never have
[09:09] <tondar> dyrne: I have installed network-manager-openvpn
[09:09] <`davo> rustalot: yes
[09:09] <sarthor> Hi, Ubuntu Fiesty Fawn 7.04 is fully install and is updated... How to Run and Configure CBQ

[09:09] <tondar> dyrne: will try
[09:09] <omegacenti> Sweet, finally have internets!
[09:09] <NeXtDaY> Nephelauxetic: yes found it.. now what to do again?!! sorry I am dumb I know :-(
[09:09] <MacDrunk> anyone has installed wine HQ????
[09:09] <cables> MacDrunk: also, your excessive use of question marks gives me a headache.
[09:09] <cables> MacDrunk: It's pretty much up to you which one you like better. In my opinion, Gnome looks nicer and I like the way it acts more. KDE, however, gives you a bit more flexibility.
[09:09] <Stormx2> sarthor: You need the "shaper" package I think
[09:10] <omegacenti> !anyone | MacDrunk
[09:10] <Nephelauxetic> NeXtDaY, reinstall grub on your disk: sudo grub-install /dev/hda
[09:10] <ubotu> MacDrunk: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[09:10] <MacDrunk> i have some probles updating the BPG key and getting the repositories
[09:10] <MacDrunk> files
[09:10] <bruenig_> MacDrunk, wine hq is not its name, wine is, sudo apt-get install wine
[09:10] <sarthor> Stormx2,  can i use apt-get install shaper
[09:10] <tondar> dyrne: how is the command exactly> sudo vpnc --domain=mynetwork
[09:10] <tondar> ?
[09:10] <cables> bruenig_: he's using their repo it seems.
[09:10] <dyrne> tondar: check your resolv.conf file after you disconnect. ive sometimes had touble with name resolution afterward. gksu gedit /etc/resolv.conf  normally its just nameserver 192.168.1.1  or whatever your router is
[09:10] <Stormx2> sarthor: Yup. Remember "sudo"
[09:10] <omegacenti> Hey bruenig_ :) (just saying hi)
[09:10] <omegacenti> cables nice to see you again.
[09:10] <sarthor> Stormx2, OK. i am already sudo..
[09:10] <NeXtDaY> Nephelauxetic: what about /boot/grub/menu.lst?
[09:10] <MacDrunk> omegacenti first im on my windows lapt on my office, second are u going to anwser my questions???
[09:11] <MacDrunk> brbr
[09:11] <george_> When I right click on the folder in question to change the permissions, the drop down box is greyed out so I can't change them. How can I work around this?
[09:11] <dyrne> tondar: yeah your it dep should have given you the things to fill in like vpn.mywork.com  and the passphrase and such
[09:11] <Nephelauxetic> NeXtDaY, that you save and close first
[09:11] <cables> MacDrunk: stop with the ???!
[09:11] <omegacenti> MacDrunk: Can't tell unless you ask you question ^_^ I will definitely try though.
[09:11] <MacDrunk> Bruenig wine HQ is the naam
[09:11] <tonyyarusso> I'm looking for a way to play my personal Last.FM station on a CLI-only machine.  I've tried shell-fm, which is okay, but stuttery.  Any other players that I can use?
[09:11] <Lincoherent> Where i can find limewire for linux ??
[09:11] <juras> error to connect to the server
[09:11] <cables> MacDrunk: wine hq is the name of the site, not the software.
[09:11] <tondar> dyrne: yeha
[09:11] <dyrne> !frostwire | Lincoherent
[09:11] <NeXtDaY> Nephelauxetic: I didn't change anything there? what should I add?
[09:11] <ubotu> Lincoherent: frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[09:11] <omegacenti> MacDrunk: I confirm that the name is actually wine, wine HQ is the maintainer of the wine package.
[09:11] <tondar> dyrne: the command doesnt wor
[09:11] <bruenig> as you might expect wine.com was probably taken
[09:11] <Nephelauxetic> Lincoherent, it's java. Get the SUN JRE 1.4 and it will run
[09:11] <juras> connection to server reseted
[09:11] <tondar> ??
[09:11] <cables> MacDrunk: also, you should ask your questions to the whole channel, not one specific person.
[09:11] <dyrne> tondar: sudo apt-get install vpnc

[09:16] <magnet> great
[09:16] <MacDrunk> ok
[09:16] <NeXtDaY> Nephelauxetic: done
[09:16] <omegacenti> MacDrunk: Find out what version of wine you have installed (if it is even installed) what version of ubuntu you have, and then phrase the question exactly as before.
[09:16] <Nephelauxetic> NeXtDaY, and then do "sudo grub-install /dev/hda"
[09:16] <omegacenti> MacDrunk: that will help us help you.
[09:16] <MacDrunk> ok i will
[09:16] <magnet> godofredo07: hurry up i'm leaving, i'm hungry as hell
[09:16] <omegacenti> MacDrunk: Good luck. ^_^

[09:18] <cables> rustalot: System>Administration>Network Tools
[09:18] <PriceChild> jrib, should work out of the box... just set the computer to your gateway...
[09:19] <omegacenti> Well that and my sound is scratchy, I have been looking at tldp.org ubuntu help and stuff on alsa but I seem to be pointing myself in the wrong direction. The sound almost sounds "clipped". I need either walkthrough or advice on my issue. Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Intel integrated Sound card AC' 97.
[09:19] <PriceChild> jrib, ie computer's ip as gateway on the laptop
[09:19] <omegacenti> Hey PriceChild, just saying hi.
[09:19] <zaggynl> Hi, I enabled Remote Desktop, but I cannot connect to myself, I keep getting: ReadFromRFBServer: rdr::EndOfStream
[09:19] <omegacenti> jrib: Yo. :) Just saying hi.
[09:19] <jrib> omegacenti: hi
[09:19] <Nephelauxetic> NeXtDaY, good luck, no problem :)
[09:19] <dyrne> tondar: yeah there is an id and password then your domain userid and password
[09:19] <ROnewbie> hi all; how can I install a DC++ client ?
[09:20] <ROnewbie> under feisty ?

[09:20] <tondar> dyrne: whats the 1st ID and pass though?
[09:20] <ivan> im trying to update nvidia drivers  but i cant do it while X is running so i need to reboot and login without x auto starting
[09:20] <omegacenti> dyrne: noooooo!
[09:20] <omegacenti> dyrne: Did they taste good?
[09:20] <demonsamurai> how can i make the letter look more clear?
[09:20] <dyrne> tondar: your it should have given you them.  i dont know they will be specific to your vpn server
[09:21] <sebrock> anyone installed MythTV backend on a server install of Ubuntu?
[09:21] <dyrne> tondar: they prob wont know either they probably have a list of stuff to type in after the windows installer runs. those things are on the list
[09:21] <omegacenti> Anyone have any more comprehensive books on linux updated within the last year or so available free online?
[09:21] <tondar> dyrne: I got these: an ip address a username and a pass thats all
[09:21] <dyrne> omegacenti: indy was a little stringy. i wouldnt recommend him
[09:22] <omegacenti> dyrne: I will keep that in mind next time one comes up.
[09:22] <dyrne> tondar: then thats it the user and pass then your domain user and pass probably
[09:22] <omegacenti> dyrne: I highly recommend talking cow from The Restaurant at the End of the Universe though. A+
[09:22] <omegacenti> Well that and my sound is scratchy, I have been looking at tldp.org ubuntu help and stuff on alsa but I seem to be pointing myself in the wrong direction. The sound almost sounds "clipped". I need either walkthrough or advice on my issue. Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Intel integrated Sound card AC' 97.
[09:23] <arrrghhh> hey can anyone help me mount a usb flash drive?
[09:23] <tondar> dyrne: whats my domain user and pass
[09:23] <ivan> any idea guys?
[09:23] <arrrghhh> ubuntu tries to mount & gives me a invalid mount option error
[09:23] <tondar> dyrne: I dont got a domain here
[09:23] <omegacenti> arrrghhh: If you figure that out will you foward the information to me please?
[09:23] <chrisjs169> is it normal for Firefox/Opera to both show only 'HitboxGateway9.2.0-rc25' when visiting high traffic sites?  (Google, Digg, etc)
[09:23] <arrrghhh> and when i try to mount it in the terminal i get deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu feisty universe
[09:23] <arrrghhh> deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt edgy mai
[09:24] <Nephelauxetic> Feistys USB disk support is somehow broken :(
[09:24] <dyrne> tondar: well maybe it wont prompt for it then.
[09:24] <omegacenti> Nephelauxetic: confirmed by launchpad?
[09:24] <arrrghhh> my feisty install at home works
[09:24] <arrrghhh> but this one at work is no longer mounting my usb flash drive
[09:24] <tondar> dyrne: it does
[09:24] <jrib> PriceChild: hmm, ok.  On the computer with the two ports, do I have to do anything with eth1 (the port that is connected to the laptop)?
[09:24] <tondar> :(
[09:24] <arrrghhh> and yesterday i could at least mount it from the terminal...
[09:24] <omegacenti> arrrghhh: with mounting the usb stick (install at home)
[09:24] <tondar> dyrne: please gimme a gui app
[09:24] <PriceChild> jrib, "shouldn't"
[09:24] <Nephelauxetic> omegacenti, yes i think
[09:24] <dyrne> tondar: heh kvpnc
[09:24] <demonsamurai> redhat cluster fails to install can i get some help here?
[09:25] <ivan> I'm trying to update nvidia drivers  but i cant do it while X is running so i need to reboot and login without x auto starting.. Any Idea how?
[09:25] <kane77> wow did you see vmware unity? it's only on OSX but it looks great...
[09:25] <dyrne> tondar: or network-manager-vpnc  they are just front endsd
[09:25] <Nephelauxetic> omegacenti, but it was just my pernal opinion
[09:25] <PriceChild> jrib, I used to connect a router to the internet, my ubuntu to the router over wireless, then my xbox to the computer by ethernet and the only setting up I had to do was on the xbox to use the computer as a gateway
[09:25] <omegacenti> The most upsetting thing is how broken openoffice package is in Ubuntu. The big bugs about OO base (databases for open office)
[09:25] <tondar> dyrne: which you suggest
[09:25] <tondar> ?
[09:25] <dyrne> tondar: there are probably instructions for network manager vpnc plugin on wiki.ubuntu.com
[09:25] <omegacenti> I had to actually install the deb package of open office to get it to work (and install java runtime 6)
[09:25] <jimcooncat> omegacenti, wish they just had used sqlite
[09:26] <Nephelauxetic> omegacenti, but you can get another one very easily... but kernel modules?
[09:26] <omegacenti> jimcooncat: Wish I knew what sqlite was :)
[09:26] <nickrud> ivan, after a boot or logging out of X, press ctl-alt-f1 , then type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop . That will stop X
[09:26] <arrrghhh> so no one has a solution
[09:26] <omegacenti> Nephelauxetic: I am sorry, get another what?
[09:26] <ivan> nickrud thank you
[09:26] <omegacenti> !sqlite
[09:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sqlite - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:26] <arrrghhh> i can't mount cd drives either anymore
[09:26] <Nephelauxetic> omegacenti, Built of openoffice
[09:26] <arrrghhh> the flash drive appears in the computer
[09:26] <omegacenti> My CD burner is slightly broken to
[09:26] <tondar> dyrne: installed net-man-vpnc
[09:26] <arrrghhh> but it refuses to mount it
[09:26] <omegacenti> Nephelauxetic: I got a deb build of it. Fixed the problem.
[10:58] (Bacon|ubuntu/#ubuntu) OmegaCenti: Its definatly linus
[10:58] (Bacon|ubuntu/#ubuntu) sure omega
[10:58] (iulian/#ubuntu) teamwork, I'm new to linux, as you can see; how can I create a deb package? you have a quick advice, or you can point me in the right direction?
[10:59] (arrrghhh/#ubuntu) apt-get alien
[10:59] (arrrghhh/#ubuntu) iulian
[10:59] (OmegaCenti/#ubuntu) iulian: you want to CREATE a new deb package?
[10:59] (krazye/#ubuntu) could someone please help me
[10:59] <OmegaCenti> !ask | krazye
[10:59] <ubotu> krazye: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:59] <arrrghhh> well you might want to state your problem
[10:59] <iulian> OmegaCenti, like teamwork says, I want to create deb packages to be able to uninstall them
[10:59] <littlewookie> can somebody help me please i have problems to compile a programm...
[11:00] <OmegaCenti> iulian: I didn't see what that individual said.
[11:00] <v3n0m`> iulian: you can also try #Getdeb on this server and ask in there =)
[11:00] <krazye> How do I get my desktop icons to display again everytime I login?
[11:00] <arrrghhh> desktop icons?
[11:00] <krazye> yeah
[11:00] <arrrghhh> do you mean the drives mounted?
[11:00] <v3n0m`> iulian: nvm there's nobody there except like 5 pplz
[11:00] <arrrghhh> those drives will reappear when you remount them
[11:00] <dyrne> krazye: ? logout and choose save settings maybe, im not sure i follow
[11:00] <krazye> yea
[11:00] <teamwork> OmegaCenti, i was telling iulian that creating a deb from source is easier to maintain than installing directly from source.  now iulian would like to know how to create a deb from source.
[11:00] <sldkfj> kraz, you gotta go through gconf editor
[11:00] <godofredo07> magnet: what is your amazon wishlist :)
[11:01] <sldkfj> krazye, you gotta go through gconf editor
[11:01] <krazye> Well heres the strange thing
[11:01] <krazye> When I logout and log back in they appear again
[11:01] <ivan> dyrne what command can i issue to see what driver im using though?
[11:01] <godofredo07> magnet: sounds good :)
[11:01] <krazye> but whenever I reboot and login they dissapear
[11:01] <ivan> just to be sure it is running
[11:01] <krazye> I have the log out and log back in agian to get them
[11:01] <arrrghhh> krazye: they do that
[11:01] <godofredo07> magnet: i can't promise any $$$ but i will take a look... okay? :)
[11:01] <OmegaCenti> teamwork: ah, why does he want to create anything from source in the first place, just curious (I knoe some things are not in repositories therefore need to be built)
[11:01] <arrrghhh> krazye: now are you talking about JUST your drives or ALL your icons?
[11:01] <krazye> All my icons
[11:02] <arrrghhh> that's strange
[11:02] <dyrne> ivan: lsmod | grep nvidia will tell you or just lsmod if you want to scroll through it. id do 'grep Driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf' thats what you are concerned about
[11:02] <magnetron> krazye: sounds like a nautilus crash
[11:02] <godofredo07> magnet: maybe one day in the near future i will help you :)
[11:02] <ivan> dyrne oh ok
[11:02] <ivan> dyrne 1 sec
[11:03] <dyrne> ivan: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop first before running installer
[11:03] <arrrghhh> krazye: yea i'd check for ubuntu updates or reinstall ubuntu... i wouldn't be able to help ya fix it if there was a way
[11:03] <OmegaCenti> bacon|ubuntu: bah, I bet you just looked at your systray icon. :p
[11:03] <ivan> dyrne xorg.conf shows nvidia driver as being used . but i wanna knwo what version
[11:03] <godofredo07> magnet: long live ubuntu
[11:03] <bacon|ubuntu> OmegaCenti: full bar
[11:03] <OmegaCenti> bacon|ubuntu: full bar what.
[11:03] <teamwork> OmegaCenti, the thing compiled was libmxml2.  there's a new version, so iulian wants to know how to make the new version's sources into a deb.
[11:03] <godofredo07> magnet: debian...of course
[11:03] <v3n0m`> How can I get a list of the DSPs and their enumeration , like card1 -> dsp0, card2->dsp1, etc. ..?
[11:03] <arrrghhh> so does anyone know how to mount a cdrom drive?!?  ubuntu has completely stopped automounting
[11:04] <arrrghhh> i figured out how to mount my usb stick, now my usb cd drive shows up in the computer but doesn't mount
[11:04] <godofredo07> magnet: i heard on the news...isn't the french government going to switch to open source?
[11:04] <ivan> dyrne like the version being used :)
[11:04] <OmegaCenti> bacon|ubuntu: you want to know why full bar means nothing? windows ALWAYS stays at full bar why? because it automatically backs down the speed to a new level, thats not an indicator of signal strength, that an indicator of how well that signal level will work for that speed.
[11:04] <teamwork> arrrghhh, edited fstab?
[11:04] <arrrghhh> teamwork: i don't know what i'm doing with fstab...
[11:04] <OmniD> Firstly I can't seem so see the users on the right of XChat
[11:04] <iulian> teamwork, exactly
[11:04] <sldkfj> ivan, what driver do you want to verify?
[11:04] <arrrghhh> teamwork: every time i try to edit a file i screw it up
[11:05] <godofredo07> magnet: make what legal?
[11:05] <eXistenz> is fdisk -l supposed to list all partitions?
[11:05] <ivan> sldkfj nvid
[11:05] <godofredo07> magnet: o :(
[11:05] <teamwork> arrrghhh, but you did edit fstab, didn't you?
[11:05] <bacon|ubuntu> OmegaCenti: quit smashing my pinata
[11:05] <arrrghhh> teamwork: and i was told that fstab doesn't have anything to do with auto mounting
[11:05] <sldkfj> ivan, Post this in a terminal and hit enter to find out the driver version:    glxinfo|grep "OpenGL version string"
[11:05] <arrrghhh> teamwork:  i never touched fstab
[11:05] <OmegaCenti> bacon|ubuntu: :)
[11:05] <ivan> trying
[11:06] <bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: I need to compile all my jokes into a book
[11:06] <bacon|ubuntu> IndyGunFreak: I'd make millions
[11:06] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[11:06] <OmegaCenti> bacon|ubuntu: the onLY time i hav seen the bar become (less) on windows is when it had gotten down to the last step of 2mb and started to fail.
[11:06] <godofredo07> magnet: could you explain why software patents are bad?
[11:06] <JDSBlueDevl> hi, is there a way to properly view Hebrew vowels in Ubuntu?  I thought it was a Firefox thing, but I checked my Mac and it's ok.  Also, Opera doesn't seem to cooperate with it as well
[11:06] <LeaChim> Heya, trying to get a netgear wg111v2 wireless card to install on a new feisty install - using the default driver, complains about it being experimental in dmesg and then iwlist wlan0 scan says no AP's found. tried with ndiswrapper and multiple windows drivers, says it's working but detects no AP's - any ideas?
[11:06] <krazye> im going to log out and log back in for a momment
[11:06] <teamwork> arrrghhh, ok.  i'm not what's going on?  checked dmesg for anything strange?
[11:06] <magnetron> !offtopic
[11:06] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[11:06] <OmegaCenti> bacon|ubuntu: you still in windows?
[11:06] <arrrghhh> teamwork: strange?
[11:06] <teamwork> arrrghhh, like, error messages...
[11:07] <lord_spidey> hello
[11:07] <arrrghhh> teamwork: well yea...
[11:07] <bacon|ubuntu> OmegaCenti: Plan on staying here, the weather is nice
[11:07] <bacon|ubuntu> tah-dah
[11:07] <teamwork> arrrghhh, pastebin them for us.
[11:07] <OmegaCenti> bacon|ubuntu: then go download netstumbler from the internet
[11:07] <arrrghhh> teamwork: on the udf i got "no partition found"
[11:07] <arrrghhh> teamwork: okie
[11:07] <lord_spidey> im looking to change the M B R so i can boot in windows is this possible without reinstalling windows or ubuntu
[11:07] <OmegaCenti> bacon|ubuntu: that will give you a realtime breakdown of al the wireless networks around you and what channels are there.
[11:07] <eXistenz> weird =x
[11:08] <teamwork> lord_spidey, yes, it is.
[11:08] <lord_spidey> is this possible
[11:08] <guennarr> predaeus: I added 1280x960, I tried to restart it, received another error message, typed ctr + alt + del, and still can't choose screen resolutions higher than 1024*768... :(
[11:09] <teamwork> lord_spidey, you have GRUB on MBR?
[11:09] <arrrghhh> teamwork: http://pastebin.com/929206
[11:09] <OmegaCenti> guennarr: what graphics card do you have?
[11:09] <godofredo07> magnet: that makes sense.....
[11:09] <JDSBlueDevl> does anyone know how to fix the vowel-placement problem for Hebrew in Ubuntu?
[11:09] <guennarr> OmegaCenti: A plain vanilla Geforce 6800 (withouth any character).
[11:09] <mr_daniel> is it possible to flip the display-output with a specific shourtcut?
[11:10] <mr_daniel> I have a nvidia card
[11:10] <arrrghhh> JDSBlueDevl: are you running the hebrew version of ubuntu?  other than that, probably not...
[11:10] <guennarr> OmegaCenti: nvidia driver is installed, predaeus made sure of that.
[11:10] <OmegaCenti> guennarr: sorry can't help (expertise with integrated intel in laptops)
[11:10] <JDSBlueDevl> no, running American flavor
[11:10] <OmniD> Can't see users on the right of XChat...
[11:10] <OmegaCenti> My sound sounds screwed up at the beginning (startup sound file) need help! Ubuntu 7.04 feisty intel ac'97 audio integrated.
[11:10] <mr_daniel> with flip I mean to rotate the output about 90 degrees
[11:10] <sercik> Hi i have a problem with X.. when i boot my system X gives an error and doesn't start.. th eerror is that nvidia kernel module and X modulre are not the same version.
[11:10] <bacon|ubuntu> OmegaCenti: Program says there is no wireless adapter
[11:10] <bacon|ubuntu> when in fact there is one
[11:10] <krazye> do you think my desktop problem could have anything to do with Beryl?
[11:11] <guennarr> OmegaCenti: no problem, nevertheless thanks for trying.
[11:11] <magnetron> mr_daniel: tell us about your graphics card
[11:11] <OmegaCenti> bacon|ubuntu: up at the top in somethig.. one of the menus.. see if you can select one.
[11:11] <godofredo07> magnet: that makes sense.........
[11:11] <bacon|ubuntu> unsupported omegacenti
[11:11] <mr_daniel> it is a nvidia GeForce Go 7600
[11:11] <OmegaCenti> bacon|ubuntu: of course application support in Vista was broken to a point of retardedness.
[11:12] <predaeus> guennarr, hm no idea then sorry. should work easily since you got the drivers working...
[11:12] <DShepherd> mr_daniel, i have the same card.. i like it very much...
[11:12] <bacon|ubuntu> OmegaCenti: dont diss my os
[11:12] <bacon|ubuntu> I happen to like it
[11:12] <bacon|ubuntu> Vista>ubuntu
[11:12] <bacon|ubuntu> :X
[11:12] <godofredo07> magnet: this is a hot topic for you :)
[11:12] <krazye> arrrghhh: do you think my desktop problem could have anything to do with Beryl?
[11:12] <mr_daniel> DShepherd: do you have found a way to flip your monitor?
[11:12] <magnetron> !vista | bacon|ubuntu
[11:12] <ubotu> bacon|ubuntu: vista is the new operating system by the evil overlords from Redmond. For more information, see http://www.badvista.org
[11:12] <bacon|ubuntu> Redmond, WA

[11:14] <krazye> who else helped me
[11:14] <sldkfj> killer
[11:14] <magnetron> DShepherd: he is talking about rotating the screen output 90 degrees
[11:14] <Azhi_Dahaka> hi
[11:14] <OmegaCenti> magnetron: this is relevant, I am trying to show him that the windows "wireless bar strength" is lying to him.
[11:14] <OmniD> bacon|ubuntu, Yes Redmond is where Microsoft is located.
[11:14] <sldkfj> put the death spike into Windows
[11:14] <arrrghhh> teamwork: i don't use multiple hdds... i have multiple partitions on one hdd ga
[11:14] <krazye> magnetron: do you think beryl could be causing my desktop problem?
[11:15] <bacon|ubuntu> lol
[11:15] <krazye> like is it a posibility
[11:15] <magnetron> krazye: yes, i think
[11:15] <mr_daniel> magnetron: that is what I mean, exactly
[11:15] <krazye> thanks
[11:15] <v3n0m`> How can I get a list of the DSPs and their enumeration , like card1 -> dsp0, card2->dsp1, etc. ..? (noone knows this... ?_)
[11:15] <teamwork> arrrghhh, oh yes.  i misread.  are you able to mount your ntfs partition anymore?
[11:15] <krazye> Im gonna remove it from my startup apps to see if that fixes the problem
[11:15] <bacon|ubuntu> OmegaCenti:  bottem line is, I can d/l linux distro at 700kb/s from 50 feet away, yet I d/l on linux at 11kb/s from 5 feet away
[11:15] <krazye> BRB
[11:15] <bacon|ubuntu> its definatly linux not working right
[11:15] <dyrne> ivan: thats umpossible ;p
[11:15] <DShepherd> mr_daniel, i have no idea how to do that...
[11:15] <predaeus> guennarr, you are welcome. still, I am confused as to why it does not work.
[11:15] <Ubuntu-Noob> has anyone else had this problem when re-installing linux onto a dual boot pc?
[11:15] <arrrghhh> teamwork: yes those mount fine
[11:15] <OmegaCenti> bacon|ubuntu: might be drivers.
[11:16] <bacon|ubuntu> OmegaCenti: as long as it works
[11:16] <OmegaCenti> bacon|ubuntu: try this right now then.
[11:16] <guennarr> predaeus: I pondered the issue - could it be that the xorg.conf wants my pc to do a resolution that the os can't apply?
[11:16] <arrrghhh> teamwork: those mount w/o me needing to intervene!
[11:16] <kam2> okay i was trying to follow the how 2(https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI#head-796aa4d6d0477c8ed722acef1878cc5626855ae3) and  i tried to configure my xorg.  it wasnt named xorg it was named xorg-original -0 bla bla     and now i get the following

[11:17] <ivan> dyrne hmm well  :/
[11:17] <v3n0m`> Ubuntu-Noob: I re-installed linux on a dual-boot pc no problem, but I reformatteed the partition first and my other OS was on another physical drive
[11:17] <Bassetts> i just installed java-6-sun how can i check that ubuntu is using that as the jvm?
[11:17] <v3n0m`> Ubuntu-Noob: well actually I deleted and re-created the partition
[11:17] <jrib> retour: ubuntu uses debs and you can find just about everything in ubuntu's repositories
[11:17] <jrib> !software > retour (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:17] <predaeus> guennarr, not sure. I don't think the drivers would have a problem rendering 1280x960. Probably try 1280x1024 (might appear squished if it works) to see if it accepts that.
[11:17] <Ubuntu-Noob> ah, yeah i have a 300gb split  150gb for xp and the rest for ubuntu
[11:18] <v3n0m`> Ubuntu-Noob: what's the problem
[11:18] <bacon|ubuntu> thats a good name
[11:18] <dyrne> ivan: did you remove the nvidia-glx-new?  you could try to sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx-new then rerun the sh Nvidia*.run
[11:18] <kam2> okay i did it
[11:18] <ivan> dyrne sec let me try
[11:19] <krazye> magnetron: thats it, it worked. I removed it from the startup programs list and they load again. I had a huntch that was causing the problem.
[11:19] <Ubuntu-Noob> when i reinstalled ubuntu grub didn't load either it still had the info from the old install so i had to edit the loader before it booted just had to change the device number
[11:19] <Azhi_Dahaka> i'm trying to install my printer, there are a lot of choices on the printer driver but not mine
[11:19] <bacon|ubuntu> bbl\
[11:19] <Bassetts> how can i check that ubuntu is using java-6-sun as its jvm?
[11:19] <MystaMax> ok, I have screen actions installed, and have it set to start on startup. How do I get it to start minimized, or start with showing the window??
[11:19] <Erix> hi

[11:20] <DShepherd> mr_daniel, have you tried to rotate it?
[11:20] <retour> ANother question. With Mandriva I always used KDE - what will suprize me in Ubunto-Gnome OR mayby I should go with KUBUNTU???

[11:20] <arrrghhh> teamwork: what is HAL?
[11:20] <Erix> retour; try gnome, you may like it more
[11:20] <jrib> retour: you can install both GNOME and KDE and choose which one to use when you login, just install "kubuntu-desktop" package after installing ubuntu
[11:20] <dyrne> ivan: sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf-bak; sudo nvidia-xconfig   < i dunno id start to suspect everything

[11:34] <gdiebel> Bassetts: so there appears to be no issue with your java plugin. It is using 1.6
[11:34] <dyrne> i vip3rousmango what software
[11:34] <snoops> vip3rousmango wine, or emulation through something like vmware
[11:34] <OmniD> gdiebel: So apparently people can read out the problems a lot better than me then? It seems to point out irrelevent problems sometimes.
[11:34] <RaMu> How do I add the tftpd-hpa package?
[11:34] <Bassetts> gdiebel, should it not be using version 6?
[11:34] <jrib> dyrne: I think the maintainers didn't have time
[11:34] <OmniD> Perhaps I am just confusing it altogether
[11:34] <vip3rousmango> snoops: i have wine, but I'm not sure how to use it yet, i'm not that experianced with Linux

[11:36] <RaMu> magnetron: how exactly? I'm completely new to linux, only had it a few hours
[11:36] <jrib> retour: should be.  If you find it is sluggish, you can try xubuntu, which is ubuntu with xfce (or just install xubuntu-desktop on ubuntu)

[11:37] <ikonia> language !
[11:38] <v3n0m`> yeah I gathered what it meant, but not how to do it?

[11:46] <wegstar> Hello all, I am currently volunteering for GreenCitizen, http://greencitizen.com/ We recycle old computers by taking them in, refurbishing them and installing linux.
[11:46] <jaakko> hi
[11:47] <wegstar> We plan on installing Ubuntu, but the problem is, how do we install it so that the user completes the last part of the installation.. i.e. creating users, password for root account, like the typical windows end user installation?
[11:47] <nickrud> qnaas, heh. Second line, don't forget the sudo. And, 2 lines paste here is sorta ok, but no more. Use the pastebin
[11:47] <rustalot> If I'm using the command line, I can use > to write to a file instead of putting it onscreen. Is there a way to do both at the same time?
[11:47] <jaakko> hello
[11:47] <F00BaR`> i have ethernet connection connected to ubuntu, but when i do ifconfig, it doesnt recognise it
[11:47] <Califalcon> sup guys
[11:47] <jaakko> ello
[11:48] <Azhi_Dahaka> how can i install my scanner?
[11:48] <jaakko> so
[11:48] <jaakko> wat up
[11:48] <F00BaR`> i have ethernet connection connected to ubuntu, but when i do ifconfig, it doesnt recognise it
[11:49] <nickrud> Azhi_Dahaka, my scanners were all detected automatically; try running apps->graphics->xsane
[11:49] <Azhi_Dahaka> already did that
[11:49] <F00BaR`> i have ethernet connection connected to ubuntu, but when i do ifconfig, it doesnt recognise it
[11:49] <Azhi_Dahaka> no luck
[11:49] <Califalcon> does ur net work?
[11:49] <jaakko> yes does ur net work
[11:49] <F00BaR`> me?
[11:49] <jaakko> no
[11:49] <snoops> wegstar this doesn't help you much but, you don't set a root password in ubuntu. It sets itself to a random password, and everyone part of the super user group does any admin work through sudo, using their own password to auth
[11:49] <Califalcon> yep
[11:49] <Ubuntu-Noob> v3n0m you got any clues on this?
[11:49] <F00BaR`> i have ethernet connection connected to ubuntu, but when i do ifconfig, it doesnt recognise it
[11:49] <v3n0m`> Ubuntu-Noob: I'm thinkin
[11:50] <HairyDude> is there a version of mpd with debugging symbols available?
[11:50] <Ubuntu-Noob> np dude
[11:50] <ikonia> F00BaR`: do sudo ifconfig -a       do you see the interface ?
[11:50] <ivan> dyrne there?
[11:50] <Califalcon> foobar we heard that part of it, does ur net work?
[11:50] <F00BaR`> yes i do
[11:50] <rustalot> wegstar: however, if you do sudo passwd, you can set the password to soomething else
[11:50] <snoops> wegstar I'd take a look in the forums, since I'd be surprised if someone in there hasn't covered the way to setup for that type of install
[11:50] <Cowfood> hey how do i tweak the color of my shell, i want a blackbackground with green text, anyone want to help me?
[11:50] <F00BaR`> ikonia yes
[11:51] <ikonia> F00BaR`: ok - so ubuntu can see the card. Use the system --> admin ---> networking gui to set an ip
[11:51] <nickrud> Azhi_Dahaka, I don't have a scanner attached now, but maybe http://www.xsane.org/xsane-introduction.html will help
[11:51] <ikonia> Cowfood: preferences in the shell
[11:51] <qnaas> If you want to stabilize mysql-server graduated following problem
[11:51] <qnaas> The following packages have unmet dependencies.

[11:51] <Paddy_EIRE> I have received some error out-put and lockups which I believe to 'fs' related what is the command to fix my ext3 fs
[11:51] <ikonia> F00BaR`not really
[11:51] <yagami> I can't connect to vnc server on a windows box on my network. how come? i've created an exception rule in the firewall thingy in windows.
[11:51] <Cowfood> ikonia, where is prefrences?
[11:51] <v3n0m`> Ubuntu-Noob: if you could get into windows somehow
[11:51] <ikonia> qnaas: what version of ubuntu are you using ?
[11:51] <F00BaR`> ikonia yes it shows up
[11:52] <qnaas> 6.06
[11:52] <ikonia> F00BaR`: ok - so your network card is fine
[11:52] <yagami> do i need to make any changes in linux iptables/firewall?
[11:52] <Ubuntu-Noob> lol what are yu thinking?
[11:52] <qnaas> ikonia:6.0
[11:52] <qnaas> 6
[11:52] <Ubuntu-Noob> is there something i need to do to the diswks to make them accessable?
[11:52] <ikonia> Cowfood: edit --> profile
[11:52] <snoops> yagami my suggestion would be to remove any possible conflicting/firewall stuff - as in disable it completely on windows, not just set a rule
[11:53] <ikonia> qnaas: the package is not called mysql 5.0 ?
[11:53] <v3n0m`> Ubuntu-Noob: there shouldn't be, what if the partition manager is right, somehow the partitions were deleted, that'd suck
[11:53] <qnaas> yes
[11:53] <yagami> snoops: yeah, i know what you mean- but if i do that, ICS gets messed up- i know, it aint our bleedin' problem :P
[11:53] <snoops> then try to connect..if works slowly build up the protection to a level where you're comfortable. This is in my opinion an easier way to determine the culprit
[11:53] <Ubuntu-Noob> nah i had it on the last install but when i booted into xp they were fine (it was the 1st thing i checked
[11:53] <idefixx> wegstar: well you usually use fai to deploy debian-like servers... you coul would probably have to create a few scripts that do the user setup stuff preinstall. never done anyhing like that on ubuntu though :)
[11:53] <Califalcon> anyone out there got audio working with an aspire 9810 laptop?
[11:54] <yagami> but can't help it cause the adsl-usb modem my ISP issued is incompatible with linux- i've got no chocie but to connect through the windows box.
[11:54] <Califalcon> used a router
[11:54] <wegstar> alright, thanks for all the responses.. does anybody know how IBM sets it up?
[11:54] <Califalcon> i mean try a router
[11:54] <Ubuntu-Noob> see i'm using sata for all my devices and i have a DFI LANPARTY NF590 and i'm wondering if lnux needs some sort of drivers to access
[11:54] <ikonia> wegstar: ibm sets up what ?
[11:54] <yagami> Califalcon: got it the first time :)
[11:54] <wegstar> ubuntu, that is, on their new line of computers?
[11:55] <snoops> kinda hard to connect an adsl usb modem to a router Califalcon ;)
[11:55] <Ubuntu-Noob> altho scrap that, partiton manager sees them
[11:55] <vip3rousmango> I want to install Adobe CS3, is there a way how?
[11:55] <ikonia> Ubuntu-Noob: whats the chipset on that board ?
[11:55] <OmegaCenti> !artsd
[11:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about artsd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:55] <Ubuntu-Noob> erm
[11:55] <Ubuntu-Noob> sec
[11:55] <Cowfood> hey when i run the command ls, how do i see the file extensions?
[11:55] <ikonia> Cowfood: man ls
[11:55] <OmegaCenti> Is artsd neccessary for ubuntu? It might be making my system not good, how do I remove it from automatically starting up?
[11:55] <Califalcon> snoops not impossible tho right
[11:55] <ikonia> Cowfood: the file extension are displayed - not every file has an extension
[11:55] <volturno33> join/  #reload
[11:55] <ROnewbie> HI all; what's the most used P2P software in linux ? I was trying to find a dc++, but all there is in the repositories is this DC_gui thing ... installed it and couldn't make much sense of it. Is there another DC++ software in ubuntu ?
[11:55] <snoops> vip3rousmango I think the only way to get cs3 going is via emulation - a virtual machine such as vmware
[11:56] <Cowfood> thanks ikonia!
[11:56] <v3n0m`> Ubuntu-Noob: I was going to mentiion the drivers too, u need to get chipset drivers maybe orsomething
[11:56] <ikonia> v3n0m`: I don't think he does as gparted can see the disks
[11:56] <vip3rousmango> snoops: I can get the vmware server, but i cant add/remove vmplayer, it says it conflicts with something on the system
[11:56] <Cowfood> hey is suse any good?
[11:56] <Ubuntu-Noob> but if that was the case would i be able to see the drives in partition manager?
[11:56] <ikonia> Cowfood: this is a channel for ubuntu support
[11:56] <vip3rousmango> snoops:  is it because I have wine already?
[11:56] <v3n0m`> ikonia: but theyare seeing them as unpartitions
[11:56] <vip3rousmango> snoops: and is it possible to do with wine?
[11:57] <Cowfood> i know, i just wanted your opinion
[11:57] <F00BaR`> i have ethernet connection connected to ubuntu, but when i do ifconfig, it doesnt recognise it
[11:57] <ikonia> v3n0m`: lets take a look
[11:57] <Califalcon> dc++ u pass strings into it and boots forward responses for example u would probably need to type -help for the channel ur in
[11:57] <snoops> nope, wine won't conflict with vmware
[11:57] <ikonia> Cowfood: not appropriate here
[11:57] <Cowfood> sorry
[11:57] <Ubuntu-Noob> the board is an NVidia chipset
[11:57] <ikonia> F00BaR`: we have looked at this and it DOES recognise it
[11:57] <v3n0m`> ikonia: huh?
[11:57] <vip3rousmango> snoops: so why would that message pop up? i can't install vmplayer which is what i'd need yes?
[11:57] <wegstar> so, when you buy the  dell computer with Ubuntu preinstalled, when you first boot it up, what happens? A setup screen? or are you presented with gdm, which you will then log in with a default account?
[11:57] <ikonia> Ubuntu-Noob: you'll probably be fine with that
[11:57] <snoops> vip3rousmango looking at the wine db, no one has managed to get any cs3 apps working on it yet
[11:57] <F00BaR`> ikonia so why cant i internet

[11:58] <Califalcon> cs3 stands for what?
[11:58] <ikonia> F00BaR`: because you've not set your card up with the correct ip / dns / route ?
[11:58] <Avalon> hi, i was having problems with the gnome settings manager, can anyone help?
[11:58] <vip3rousmango> Califalcon: CS3 = Creative Suite 3
