[12:01] <ReServe2> jamman; I dont like nautilus.
[12:01] <Tiradin> flannel: I'm not sure of the filesystem, but i'm going to format it anyway... does it matter if it reads "ext2"?
[12:01] <alecwh> I just installed LAMP, and when I access phpmyadmin on my server (http://localhost/phpmyadmin), it asks me for my username and password. I'm assuming this is the username and password for mySQL. But I'm unaware of how to create a user for mySQL. I tried logging in with my Ubuntu login, but I got this: Error #2002 - The server is not responding (or the local MySQL server's socket is not correctly configured). How do I fix this?
[12:01] <scorp123> ronin_: not possible
[12:01] <BrightEyes`> anyone who has matlab for linux?
[12:01] <JC_Denton_> Is there a non graphical login manager to speed up booting? (I still want to load the GUI)
[12:01] <jamman> ReServe2, what do you want to do exactly then?
[12:01] <Flannel> Tiradin: You should format it as ext3.  You haven't formatted yet?  You might aswell do that first.
[12:01] <OmegaCenti> ronin_: I am not sure, but doing such things to mounted partitions might not be recommended.. at all.
[12:01] <Iva1> should i write this bash into xorg.conf???
[12:01] <lenzzzinoleonard> bobbob1016: I know what is ethernet but my modem has only USB
[12:01] <bobbob1016> lenzzzinoleonard, I don't think it does, after google-ing, which is a shock, I have DSL, and the last modem I had without ethernet was a few years ago
[12:01] <ronin_> scorp123, thx, for save my time
[12:01] <crimsun> FreeFull: speaking of which, which model is it?
[12:01] <Flannel> Tiradin: you can't/shouldn't format mounted partitions (always unmount them first)
[12:01] <ronin_> thx guys
[12:01] <OmegaCenti> np
[12:02] <scorp123> ronin_: you'd have to make a backup and then re-create the partition
[12:02] <lenzzzinoleonard> bobbob1016: here is the modem http://www.utstar.com/Solutions/CPE/certified_cpe_products.asp
[12:02] <scorp123> ronin_: and then re-format with the desired filesystem type
[12:02] <lgc> n2diy, will it become eth0 interface?
[12:02] <Tiradin> Flannel: Thanks for that tip.
[12:02] <bobbob1016> lenzzzinoleonard, I don't know what to tell you then, you could call your DSL company, and say you need ethernet because you have a mac and it doesn't work, if you say linux they'll say that is the problem
[12:02] <cables> JC_Denton_: the time spent loading the login screen is the time spent loading the GUI, so if you disable that, it'll take just as long to start up.
[12:02] <ronin_> scorp123, this is my root and home partition, sa i just re-format
[12:03] <JC_Denton_> cables... ok but is there one anyway?
[12:03] <scorp123> ronin_: you could make a backup of /home ... like this you at least get to keep all your settings.
[12:03] <ReServe2> jamman; I like to use the list option in explorer. And three view.
[12:03] <jamman> oh... i see. have you tried views, ReServe2
[12:03] <ronin_> scorp123, yes i know, but my home had a 30gb and root 5, 2 gb left ;)
[12:03] <Cal__>  appreciate some help here
[12:03] <lenzzzinoleonard> bobbob1016: how is that gonna help are they gonna give a modem with ethernet 4 free
[12:03] <scorp123> ronin_: you don't have an external HD or you can't burn stuff to DVD?
[12:04] <n2diy> lgc no, ttySx,
[12:04] <ronin_> scorp123, my choice is a 10 dvd ;)
[12:04] <bnall> when i try to install libdvdread3 i get an error to insert the ubuntu cd but i don't have one - any help?
[12:04] <cables> JC_Denton_: if you disable it from starting GDM (I forget how though) it'll just kick you to a commandline login. After you log in, you'll have to start the GUI manually with "startx" though.
[12:04] <n2diy> lgc no, comm1 would be ttyS0, comm2 ttyS1 etc...
[12:04] <cables> JC_Denton_: and that's what'll take just as long as starting GDM.
[12:04] <olsckolirc> hi guys.  i just installed the new ubuntu and i don't have sound. i use ac97 can someone help me get sound?  i see in the apt, ubuntu doesn't use or have in repository alsaconf
[12:04] <lgc> n2diy, so I won't lose my ethernet connection, I suppose. I want to use the modem to send a fax...
[12:04] <Tiradin> Flannel: How do I tell if fstab has worked / linux is showing the hdd in the first place?
[12:04] <JC_Denton_> cables , thanks
[12:05] <ReServe2> jamman; yes, and there is a list view in nautilus, but this wont show it like in explorer. The list will just go downwards until it ends. In explorer it will cut at the end of the screen and start at top right of the list.
[12:05] <JC_Denton_> Cables, I don't always need the gui anyway..
[12:05] <ReServe2> hard to explain. English is not my primary language :D
[12:05] <bobbob1016> lenzzzinoleonard, you don't have to say it rudely, I am trying to help.  I can't tell you what to do if you don't get ethernet.  If you say "I am using a Mac, and I need a modem with ethernet" they should send you one for free, not sure who your dsl company is, I have mob-bell, should I say AT&T, and they've replaced my modem a few times for free
[12:05] <lenzzzinoleonard> bobbob1016: do u know any 1 a expert i could try contacting abt this issu. if others got their modem y couldent I?
[12:05] <OmegaCenti> ReServe2: what is primary language?
[12:05] <n2diy> lgc it won't mess with eth0, don't know about faxing.
[12:05] <ReServe2> OmegaCenti; Norwegian
[12:05] <bobbob1016> lenzzzinoleonard, you can't because you're using USB.  plain and simple.
[12:05] <OmegaCenti> ReServe2: Nice. lol.
[12:05] <bnall> help - newbie trying to install libdvdread3 but getting error to insert disk that i don't have
[12:06] <ReServe2> OmegaCenti; you too?
[12:06] <nobleguy> can someone help me with the ubuntu 7.04 livecd, it detects all my drives as scsi, and i can't get grub to install, it says hd0 is not found, or is not a block device, when using /dev/sda1(as ubuntu detects it) it also says device not found or not a block device
[12:06] <lgc> n2diy, let me try the graphical option first...
[12:06] <cables> bnall: did you install libdvdcss2?
[12:06] <bobbob1016> lenzzzinoleonard, that is the issue, USB requires drivers, and there are WAY too many different DSL modems to custom make drivers for
[12:06] <bluebanana>  i want to access iTunes (mp3s) without downloading and installing iTunes. Is this possible?
[12:06] <jamman> ReServe2, don't know what to tell you then.
[12:06] <Yggdrasil> can somone explain to me the levels of nice ? is nice 0 less cpu than nice 10 ?
[12:06] <olsckolirc> hi guys.  i just installed the new ubuntu and i don't have sound. i use ac97 can someone help me get sound?  i see in the apt, ubuntu doesn't use or have in repository alsaconf
[12:06] <bobbob1016> lenzzzinoleonard, if it was ethernet it would work without a problem
[12:06] <OmegaCenti> bnall: You could possibly make an ubuntu CD from their website ?
[12:06] <cables> bluebanana: you can't download songs from iTunes Music Store without iTunes.
[12:06] <Zack> dude
[12:06] <deverne> I found something wrong in official documentation of ubuntu network install. What can I do as it is not in the wiki (cannot edit doc)?
[12:06] <bnall> yes i installed it and also the codecs
[12:06] <beelsebob> bluebanana: they're stored in ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Library/...
[12:07] <Flannel> Tiradin: Two separate things.  The latter will be true, but if you want you can check (`sudo fdisk -l` will list the partitions linux sees)
[12:07] <lenzzzinoleonard> bobbob1016: check this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsbAdslModem/e-techV2
[12:07] <n2diy> lgc ok, gl
[12:07] <nobleguy> anyone able to help me?
[12:07] <ReServe2> jamman; Dont worry. I am investigating on my own. Sooner or later I will find the right file manager ;).
[12:07] <OmegaCenti> !ask | nobleguy
[12:07] <ubotu> nobleguy: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:07] <Flannel> Tiradin: fstab will work if your disk gets mounted to the place you've told it to.
[12:07] <bluebanana> is there no ubuntu program that mimics iTunes, cables?
[12:07] <bluebanana> beelsebob, huh?
[12:07] <scorp123> OmegaCenti: he did ask correctly ... see above ....
[12:07] <nobleguy> i already asked, nobody saw it i guess, hold on
[12:07] <scorp123> OmegaCenti: he has troubles with grub ...
[12:07] <bnall> omega - noble guy?
[12:07] <OmegaCenti> scorp123: My apologies :)
[12:07] <Flannel> Tiradin: well, run `sudo mount -a` and it'll mount, that is.
[12:07] <bobbob1016> lenzzzinoleonard, and?  follow those directions.  if they work, great, if they don't ethernet will work without a doubt.
[12:07] <ReServe2> OmegaCenti; where are you from?
[12:07] <OmegaCenti> ReServe2: Sorry to burst bubble, Texas.
[12:08] <cables> bluebanana: there are tons that let you play music and work with iPods, but none that'll let you use the iTunes Music Store. If you already have songs downloaded from the Store, you can decrypt them with one of several tools that are illegal in the US.
[12:08] <lenzzzinoleonard> bobbob1016: this is wht convinced me the most that I could get mine to work http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?s=002ae70c112165261bf1ac5cbf32b3d5&t=194237

[12:08] <scorp123> nobleguy: weird problem ....
[12:08] <nobleguy> yeah
[12:08] <nobleguy> that's what i said
[12:08] <ReServe2> OmegaCenti; hehe, I have plans to visit overseas soon.
[12:08] <nobleguy> oh yeah, 6.10 works fine
[12:08] <scorp123> cables: he was just asked to repeat his question :-)
[12:08] <bluebanana> cables,  there are audio files that i want to get from iTunes.
[12:08] <lenzzzinoleonard> bobbob1016: but i have erroers and problems dont know what top do next
[12:08] <ReServe2> OmegaCenti; vacation.
[12:08] <cables> nobleguy: sorry 'bout that
[12:08] <nobleguy> np
[12:08] <Steffen> Can someone explain to me, how to set a different password to the root account ? (Different from my user's that is)
[12:09] <nobleguy> steffen, it's in the user manager
[12:09] <cables> Steffen: there is no root password
[12:09] <OmegaCenti> ReServe2: Don't visit Texas.
[12:09] <deverne> Steffen:sudo passwd
[12:09] <bnall> omegacenti - i installed libdvdcss2 already ideas?
[12:09] <cables> bluebanana: you mean you want to access your Windows drive?
[12:09] <lenzzzinoleonard> bobbob1016: a guy with the right knowladge will help. ass i told b4 i need the right guy with right knowladge
[12:09] <ReServe2> OmegaCenti; Texas is actualy high on the visit list. But California is higher at this point :)
[12:09] <Steffen> i'll try that, just a sec
[12:09] <cables> Steffen: you really should not set a root password, sudo is the best way to do it.
[12:09] <bobbob1016> lenzzzinoleonard, I don't know what errors you're getting, nor do I think I have the expertise to fix them.  I am saying to my knowledge it would be MUCH easier if you just get ethernet
[12:09] <ReServe2> OmegaCenti; why not Texas?
[12:09] <cables> !root | Steffen
[12:09] <ubotu> Steffen: 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
[12:09] <mrynit> I need a pointer for geting my usb mic to work
[12:09] <OmegaCenti> ReServe2: go to California then :) Texas is not very interesting.
[12:10] <Steffen> i actually meant the password for sudo'ing, I guess I should had formulated it differently
[12:10] <ReServe2> OmegaCenti; I was thinking of taking a tour to Housten to the Space Center, hehe.
[12:10] <bobbob1016> lenzzzinoleonard, I don't know anyone to help you.  I don't know how many other ways to say ethernet
[12:10] <scorp123> Steffen: sudo always uses your passwd
[12:10] <deverne> steffen: when you need to do a lot of stuff as root, it's better to do sudo su
[12:10] <cables> Steffen: the password for sudo-ing is always the password of the account you're currently on.
[12:10] <jamman> lenzzzinoleonard, you have a how to, you should be able to follow it, right?
[12:10] <Flannel> scorp123: that's not true.  Just the default.
[12:10] <cables> Steffen: you CAN set a root password, but it's safer to just use Sudo.
[12:10] <OmegaCenti> ReServe2: that might work.. I live in houston.
[12:10] <Tiradin> Flannel: what's the identifier for the fat32 filesystem....
[12:10] <Flannel> deverne, Steffen, `sudo -i` not sudo su
[12:10] <deverne> steffen : yes sudo asks always for user passwd
[12:10] <nobleguy> so... guessing nobody knows how to solve the problem... i posted on the forums... no useful response, only thing i can think of is a pass to the bootloader telling it which module to load for my disk controller (mobo is an intel 810 chipset)
[12:10] <Steffen> aaah that makes so much sense :) I just thought it was a security breach that sudo used my user's password, I guess it's not :)
[12:11] <Iva1> once again, whats the promt 4 changing the resolution???
[12:11] <ReServe2> OmegaCenti; sorry, Houston. Misspelling :S
[12:11] <bluebanana> cables, i have not windows. I have only Ubuntu
[12:11] <cables> bluebanana: are there songs on your Windows partition that you want to transfer to Linux?
[12:11] <cables> bluebanana: then how do you have iTunes songs?
[12:11] <bluebanana> cables, i have no windows partition.
[12:11] <scorp123> Flannel: On Ubuntu it always uses "your" password ... simple explanation. Not everyone is interested in the details :-)
[12:11] <OmegaCenti> ReServe2: no problems, if you ever do come give me a call.
[12:11] <lenzzzinoleonard> bobbob1016: yes i think ur right i got to throw ma modem a way and get a new 1
[12:11] <Steffen> this place is awesome, I've spend hours on google, and here I have a response in less than five minutes - I'm impressed :)
[12:11] <Tiradin> flannel: i'm trying different filesystems and it's telling me it doesn't recognize "fat", "fat32" or "raw"
[12:11] <cables> Steffen: the point is that you can create a new user, and they can use sudo to do certain things as root, but they can only do what you allow them to do.
[12:11] <Flannel> Tiradin: type you mean? fat
[12:11] <ReServe2> OmegaCenti; Do you know how mutch they (space center) take for a tour? :D Will do :)
[12:11] <lenzzzinoleonard> bobbob1016: thanx 4 d help c ya
[12:12] <bobbob1016> lenzzzinoleonard, you don't throw it away, you ask your DSL company for a replacement.
[12:12] <cables> Steffen: and they will use sudo with their own password.
[12:12] <OmegaCenti> Steffen: We try to avoid throwing RTFM as some people don't even know the right question. In other words, Welcome to #ubuntu :)
[12:12] <nobleguy> man this crap is really p***ing me off
[12:12] <deverne> I found a problem when following official documentation for network install of Gutsy - How to propose a patch for doc?
[12:12] <Flannel> scorp123: no, that's not true either.  On Ubuntu you can set it to use the root password.  Just not by default.
[12:12] <Steffen> cables > Okay that would be my next question, since I need two users on this machine, and user no. 2 should not be able to sudo anything
[12:12] <lgc> n2diy, it seems I have to give the phone company number in order to configure my modem. The thing is that I don't want it to connect to my ISP, but to another modem. What should I do?
[12:12] <cables> (but you shouldn't)
[12:12] <sexauer>  I upgraded ubuntu from 6.10 to 7.04 and now my synaptics touchpad does not work (was working previously).  I see in the xorg log file that the module for it (synaptics_drv.so) is being loaded. but towards the end of the log i see this "(EE) Synaptics Touchpad no synaptics touchpad detected and no repeater device"  I have evdev and psmouse loaded.  Cany anybody help me out? i've been using an external usb mouse and its drivin
[12:12] <sexauer> g me nuts...i do a "cat <device>" on everything in /dev/input and move my finger on the touchpad, but get nothing on all devices
[12:12] <lenzzzinoleonard> bobbob1016: I'm prety sure they wont change
[12:12] <cables> Steffen: create a new user, and don't let them be an admin, and they won't be able to sudo anything.
[12:12] <bobbob1016> lenzzzinoleonard, it won't hurt to try
[12:12] <Iva1> How do i change resolution???
[12:12] <bobbob1016> lenzzzinoleonard, that is why you say you have a mac and need ethernet
[12:12] <Steffen> OmegaCenti : Nice way to treat newcomers, great :)
[12:12] <scorp123> Flannel: "just not by default" is exactly what I mean. It can be changed, yes. But out of the box it uses "your password". Don't confuse people ;-)
[12:13] <cables> Steffen: the nice thing about sudo is it's configurable per-user. I can make a user that's only allowed to install software, and nothing else.
[12:13] <Steffen> cables: I'll do that right away
[12:13] <nobleguy> ok, another question, is it possible to update ubuntu from cd, i tried a couple methods, but they downloaded stuff from the internet, i want it to only get stuff from the cd (i'm on dialup)
[12:13] <bobbob1016> lenzzzinoleonard, I'm assuming they don't have drivers for the USB on the mac, so they will PROBABLY send you a new one
[12:13] <Flannel> Steffen: and also, if you want to give them limited access, you can give them sudo access to certain programs (so they can do X, Y, and Z but not anything else)
[12:13] <Jadder> Hello everybody, in ubuntu 7.04, how I install a file_dot.bin
[12:13] <bobbob1016> lenzzzinoleonard, if not try the howto you sent me
[12:13] <Tiradin> Flannel: mount: unknown filesystem type 'fat'
[12:13] <nobleguy> too many people in here...
[12:13] <cables> Steffen: it's fairly easy to do, in System>Administration>Users and Groups, hit create new user, and select Unprivileged User from the list.
[12:13] <scorp123> Tiradin: try "vfat"
[12:13] <lenzzzinoleonard> bobbob1016: i tried no sucess.
[12:13] <OmegaCenti> Steffen: In order for some people to become familiar with Linux, people need to stop throwing RTFM whenever people have a question. Thats how I got started in here. Their niceness ha made me a supporter for life.
[12:13] <Steffen> Flannel: Awesome, you have so much control over your users in Linux compared to Windows (Just switching as we speak)
[12:13] <Flannel> Tiradin: try vfat
[12:13] <cables> Jadder: is the file on your desktop?
[12:13] <Jadder> yes
[12:14] <OmegaCenti> cables: whatabout desktop user?
[12:14] <Jadder> google earth for linux.bin
[12:14] <Iva1> How to change resolution?
[12:14] <n2diy> lgc how do plan to connect to the other modem, over the phone line, or a null modem cable?
[12:14] <mwe> but I want my user to do G :(
[12:14] <cables> omegacenti: he ddoesn't want him to be able to sudo ANYTHING.
[12:14] <Steffen> OmegaCenti: Hopefully I'll look back like that someday too, sounds nice for sure
[12:14] <Tiradin> Flannel: mount: special device /dev/hdb1 does not exist
[12:14] <bobbob1016> lenzzzinoleonard, then get the DSL company to replace the modem.  ethernet will work 100%, not USB.
[12:14] <Flannel> Jadder: google earth is available in a repository,
[12:14] <Flannel> !earth | Jadder
[12:14] <ubotu> Jadder: Google Earth is now available, for free (only as in price), for Linux, too. To download it see http://earth.google.com/download-earth.html - A package for Ubuntu is available in the !Medibuntu repository
[12:14] <cables> Flannel: it isn't
[12:14] <OmegaCenti> cables: desktop users can still sudo? oh, didn't know that
[12:14] <cables> Flannel: only in medibuntu, better to just use the installer
[12:14] <Flannel> cables: It is.  Medibuntu repository, as per factoid.
[12:14] <lenzzzinoleonard> bobbob1016:My problem is how on earth did this guy who made the how to figuer out all this
[12:14] <lgc> n2diy, over the phone line.
[12:14] <OmegaCenti> !medibuntu
[12:14] <ubotu> medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[12:14] <cables> omegacenti: probably for some things...
[12:14] <Flannel> cables: packages are always better than non packages.
[12:14] <Steffen> cables: ok thanks alot, I'll brb in 2 minutes - I'll just try creating the second user
[12:15] <cables> omegacenti: okay, but it's third party... i guess he should use that then.
[12:15] <Tarkus> yo, anyone know how to make a call where they cant see your number?
[12:15] <sexauer> anybody know what would make the touchpad not put data to anything in /dev/input?
[12:15] <Jadder> ubotu can I do, sudo apt-get install google earth or visti medibuntu ?
[12:15] <n2diy> lgc ok, so you'll still need to dial out to no? And the other modem will need to be configured to auto answer?
[12:15] <nobleguy> grrr...
[12:15] <NemesisD> how does one pronounce ubuntu?

[12:16] <bobbob1016> lenzzzinoleonard, he knows a lot about linux, and as I've said numerous times, I don't know anyone who can help you with that.  Those directions could be very out of date, and he might have said "instead of re-doing the directions, I'm getting ethernet"
[12:16] <nobleguy> yes flannel

[12:16] <lgc> n2diy, as I said, I'm just trying to use the modem to send a fax, so I suppose the other fax is configured as auto-answer.
[12:17] <cables> NemesisD: ooboontoo
[12:17] <Jadder> cables I donwload for the link, I have this file in my desktop, but is dotbin
[12:17] <Steffen> Creating a second user was piece of cake, thank you all (flannel, cables, OmegaCenti and probably some more people:))
[12:17] <thedrummer> hm. thx
[12:17] <Jadder> doenst open,
[12:17] <zambaboo>  the sound on my ubuntu laptop stopped working. if i play a song and pull the power cord out, i can hear the song for a split second, along with the laptop's 'ac off' notification beep.
[12:17] <zambaboo> halp?
[12:17] <OmegaCenti> Steffen: np.
[12:17] <cables> Jadder: I mean the Medibuntu link.
[12:17] <jamman> NemesisD, yeah, but everybody has a slightly different way of saying thigs. like gnome ( as in a garden gnome is how i say it)
[12:17] <cables> Jadder: go to System>Administration>Software Sources
[12:17] <n2diy> lgc ok, I'm with, yes the fax machine should auto answer.
[12:17] <Simonjester> thats how I say gnome
[12:17] <nobleguy> flannel: i don't think it's an alternate cd, i ordered it through shipit, it's the livecd/install
[12:17] <cables> jamman: that's incorrect actually
[12:17] <Flannel> nobleguy: right.  You can't upgrade with the desktop CD (what you got through shipit), only reinstall (of course reinstallation doesn't necessarily mean lose everything, you can put your home on a different partition, and install around it)
[12:17] <thedrummer> cables, it says "wrong file format"
[12:17] <zambaboo> ive heard people say 'gee-nome'
[12:17] <Simonjester> I figured it was
[12:17] <jamman> cables, how so?
[12:18] <cables> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNOME
[12:18] <cables> they say something about the pronounciation there...
[12:18] <jamman> cables, is it G-Nome?
[12:18] <Simonjester> way easier on the ear/tongue though
[12:18] <cables> thedrummer: then it's not a valid gtk theme.
[12:18] <bronze---> How can I add beryl as standard window manager, so that I don't have to switch it on after every reboot/xorg restart?
[12:18] <nobleguy> yeah flannel, but i'm trying to get around the upgrade by somehow using an update where it doesn't have to mess with grub...
[12:18] <Simonjester> oh yeah Ga-Gnome
[12:18] <cables> jamman: according to the wikipedia, yep.
[12:18] <sylvia0> Hi.  What Feisty image should i download so I can reinstall Feisty on my laptop?
[12:18] <zambaboo> g??no?m
[12:18] <Flannel> nobleguy: You can't update with the Desktop CD, you need the alternate CD
[12:18] <cables> bronze---: add beryl-manager to System>Preferences>Sessions
[12:18] <bobbob1016> That was fun, I learned how to repeat myself 10-20 times without punching anything.
[12:18] <nobleguy> oh ya, i tried installing grub with puppy linux, it said /dev/hda1(the drive i want /boot to go on) wasn't a linux partition, even after being unmounted
[12:19] <lgc> n2diy, so should I try and see if the modem works without the phone company's number?
[12:19] <jamman> cables, No way! really?
[12:19] <thedrummer> cables, i have just DLed it from gnome-look.org from GTK 2.x
[12:19] <Tiradin> Flannel: mount: special device /dev/hdb1 does not exist
[12:19] <NemesisD> i do "nome", i used to say it like jee-nome but that sounded kinda silly to me
[12:19] <jamman> cables, *going to wikipedia*
[12:19] <cables> sylvia0: the regular one should work, just make sure you select the right partitions to install to.
[12:19] <Simonjester> yeah, I had problems with beryl manager in gnome session
[12:19] <lige> quick question. When connecting to my windows network... it asks for authentication. I do not have a password set to my LAn tho.
[12:19] <cables> thedrummer: you can upload anything to that site, it doesn't mean it's valid. Can you send me a link so I can test it?
[12:19] <Simonjester> have to re-load it every time I log in
[12:19] <Flannel> Tiradin: patebin the output of `sudo fdisk -l`
[12:19] <nobleguy> tiradin, try mount /dev/sdb1
[12:19] <bobsumone_>  how do I enable multiple moniter support on ubuntu desktop?
[12:19] <Simonjester> or else the desktop is all screwed up
[12:19] <jamman> lige, dont put one in?
[12:19] <Tiradin> flanneL: it only has /dev/hda*'s
[12:19] <alecwh>  I just installed LAMP, and when I access phpmyadmin on my server (http://localhost/phpmyadmin), it asks me for my username and password. I'm assuming this is the username and password for mySQL. But I'm unaware of how to create a user for mySQL. I tried logging in with my Ubuntu login, but I got this: Error #2002 - The server is not responding (or the local MySQL server's socket is not correctly configured). How do I fix this?
[12:20] <n2diy> lgc If you know the fax machines number, give it a call.
[12:20] <sylvia0> Flannel: What about a reinstall of Feisty?
[12:20] <nobleguy> i think it's a common thing for ubuntu 7.04 to detect drives as scsi when they aren't
[12:20] <Tiradin> flannel: I'm not even seeing my hdb
[12:20] <Flannel> !lamp > alecwh
[12:20] <thedrummer> cables, that theme has 10628 downloads ;\ it's one of the top
[12:20] <Flannel> alecwh: that page has instructions on setting everything up
[12:20] <jamman> alecwh, admin or administrator and password is blank (maybe the user is root)
[12:20] <sexauer> anybody have any ideas as to why my touchpad would stop working after the upgrade to fiesty?
[12:20] <alecwh> Flannel, I looked at that guide, and I have everything done.
[12:20] <Flannel> Tiradin: Make sure it's plugged in.
[12:20] <Steffen> /leave
[12:20] <alecwh> But it doesn't work.
[12:20] <cables> thedrummer: are you dragging the tar.gz/tar.bz2 in, or extracting it first? Because you should just drag the tar.gz/tar.bz2 in.
[12:20] <thedrummer> cables, do i need any special packs to install GTK 2.x themes ?
[12:20] <alecwh> Everything is "connected" but mySQL is't working.
[12:20] <bobsumone_>  how do I enable multiple moniter support on ubuntu desktop?
[12:20] <juaco> hello i have a RockChip based mp4 player, it worked well in win but in ubuntu it gives i/o errors and spontaneous umounts on read/writes, plz help me
[12:21] <lige> domain would be the workgroup of the machine im trying to access, yes?
[12:21] <cables> thedrummer: no, it should just work... can you send me a link please?
[12:21] <thedrummer> cables, just drug
[12:21] <Flannel> sylvia0: you can reinstall through either CD
[12:21] <Tiradin> Flannel: I put it in as a secondary.
[12:21] <lgc> n2diy,  are you suggesting to use the fax # I'm trying to call as the no. of the phone company?
[12:21] <jamman> cables, aparently you're right.
[12:21] <Tiradin> flannel: I also confirmed in my BIOS that it was detected.
[12:21] <Flannel> Tiradin: an IDE?  Primary slave? or secondary master? or secondary slave?
[12:21] <nobleguy> *sigh*
[12:21] <Tiradin> IDE Primary Slave
[12:21] <alecwh> How do I uninstall Apache, PHP, mySQL, phpmyadmin?
[12:21] <sylvia0> Flannel: So the desktop image will be ok, then?
[12:21] <n2diy> lgc if your trying to send a fax, why would you call the phone company?
[12:22] <juaco> somebody?
[12:22] <Flannel> sylvia0: for what?
[12:22] <zambaboo> im really baffled by this
[12:22] <nobleguy> linux is teh irritator
[12:22] <sylvia0> For reinstall of Feisty.
[12:22] <Flannel> Tiradin: pastebin `ls /dev`
[12:22] <nobleguy> much patience required for linux...
[12:22] <zambaboo> ive never seen this before.
[12:22] <cables> !pronunciation is <reply> Ubuntu is pronounced "Ooboontoo" and Gnome is pronounced "Guh-nome"
[12:22] <Flannel> sylvia0: yeah.  The Desktop CD or the Alternate CD
[12:22] <cables> what the hell?
[12:22] <cables> they removed !bla is
[12:22] <jamman> zambaboo, what?
[12:22] <sylvia0> Flannel: Thanks!
[12:22] <thedrummer> cables, got  a link ?
[12:22] <lgc> n2diy, no, I mean just for configuring purposes. The "phone company number" asked for on the config menu would be the # I'm trying to fax to.
[12:23] <zambaboo> jamman, sound stopped working. if i play a song and pull the power cord out, i can hear the song for a split second, along with the laptop's 'ac off' notification beep.
[12:23] <cables> thedrummer: yeah, hold on
[12:23] <nobleguy> lights a cig, he's gonna need it
[12:23] <Jadder> what I suppose to do with feisty.list?,
[12:23] <bobsumone_>  how do I enable multiple moniter support on ubuntu desktop? anyone?
[12:23] <NeoGeo64> i need a windows movie maker kinda app for ubuntu
[12:23] <zambaboo> bobsumone_, nvidia card?
[12:23] <Tiradin> Flannel: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25899/
[12:23] <bobsumone_>  no
[12:23] <jamman> zambaboo, so on a laptop, eh? what laptop?
[12:23] <zambaboo> thinkpad t40
[12:23] <Flannel> Jadder: http://www.medibuntu.org/repository.php
[12:23] <juaco> ppl need help with hw problem...
[12:23] <NeoGeo64> can someone help me a windows movie maker kinda app for ubuntu
[12:23] <n2diy> lgc, call the fax machine.
[12:23] <zambaboo> bobsumone_, ati?
[12:23] <cables> !repeat | NeoGeo64
[12:23] <ubotu> NeoGeo64: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[12:23] <jamman> NeoGeo64, try Avidimux.. i think
[12:24] <jamman> NeoGeo64, let me look.
[12:24] <SlimeyPete> juaco: ask away
[12:24] <Flannel> Tiradin: you haven't partitioned that harddrive at all, have you
[12:24] <bobsumone_>  1 ati PCI and the other is internal
[12:24] <nobleguy> ok, seems how ubuntu won't work, and nobody seems to know why, anyone know a good distro for a 700mhz celeron with 256mb of ram and a 2gb swap *DRIVE* with 32mb onboard(not shared) vid?
[12:24] <lgc> n2diy, let me try that...
[12:24] <cables> thedrummer: that theme requires you type this command first: < sudo aptitude install gtk2-engines-murrine >
[12:24] <Jadder> Flannel is was Jadder: http://www.medibuntu.org/repository.php, I download a list
[12:24] <alecwh> sudo opt install apache2 php5-mysql libapache2-mod-php5 mysql-server
[12:24] <cables> thedrummer: but it should install just fine without it
[12:24] <alecwh> Will that work installing LAMP?
[12:24] <SlimeyPete> NeoGeo64: Pitivi is trying to be that sortof app. I don't know how good it is though.
[12:24] <Jadder> but what I do with this list? of feisty?
[12:24] <cables> thedrummer: it just won't look right until you install that package.
[12:24] <bobsumone_>  where the hell is gconf-editor too
[12:24] <Tiradin> Flannel: my HDA is partitioned 6 ways I believe... HDB hasn't been touched as far as I know.. I can format it, i Just need to detect it.
[12:24] <Tiradin> re-partition it
[12:24] <opla> I'm trying to install a driver on HP pavilion for the integrated webcam and I have this problem when i digit make --->make[1] : *** No rule to make target `modules'. Stop.      anybody could help me please?
[12:24] <SlimeyPete> NeoGeo64: Kino is OK, as well.
[12:24] <juaco> it's a usb "RockChip" (chinese i think) mp4 player, it gives i/o errors and suddenly umopunt itselfs on r/w, though in windoze it worked allright
[12:25] <nobleguy> too many people in here...
[12:25] <thedrummer> cables, have installed already ;\
[12:25] <NeoGeo64> ive tried kino it sucks
[12:25] <cables> thedrummer: since it just refused to install, I'm guessing the file or download was corrupted.
[12:25] <jamman> nobleguy, amen brother.
[12:25] <Flannel> Tiradin: sigh.  You need to partition it before you can mount anything.  It *is* detected.  Always has been, I don't know why you don't think it is.  It's right there (hdb) in that ls output.
[12:25] <bobsumone_>  nobleguy:: second that
[12:25] <unagi> anyone know anything about dialup networking with bluetooth?
[12:25] <jamman> anyways... I have a DWL-650+ that I had working in Ubuntu, Installed ndiswrapper for WPA and it worked, until I restarted. Then, it didn't work. Couldn't even connect to an unsecured.
[12:25] <Flannel> Jadder: You don't download a list, you run those commands and it does it for you.
[12:25] <unagi> im using wvdial and finally got it working but its slower than when on windows
[12:25] <juaco> SlimeyPete copied?
[12:25] <bobsumone_>  JFC
[12:26] <unagi> is there a value maybe in the baud i need to change?
[12:26] <bobsumone_>  cant anyone tell me how to do 2 moniters on ubuntu?
[12:26] <Tiradin> Flannel: it's also showing hdc, etc... i only have to HDD's. How do I partition it then?
[12:26] <jamman> even tried rmmoding and modprobing and the like.
[12:26] <jamman> no takers?
[12:26] <Jadder> i run my comand, for feisty, but the only thing that sudo wget http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/sources.list.d/feisty.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list, can do is downlaod a file, little
[12:26] <zambaboo> bobsumone_, what card?
[12:26] <Flannel> Tiradin: those are your CD drives (or whatevers on secondary master/slave)
[12:26] <Tiradin> ok
[12:26] <SlimeyPete> juaco: sorry, I don't know about such things
[12:26] <juaco> okok thx anyway
[12:26] <bobsumone_>  zambaboo: 1 is ATI, the other is a genaric internal
[12:27] <bobsumone_>  they both work
[12:27] <jamman> NONE???
[12:27] <Flannel> Jadder: you're not on the same page as I am.  Go here: http://www.medibuntu.org/repository.php  and follow the third set of instructions.
[12:27] <juaco> somebody who knows a bit of hw stuff
[12:27] <zambaboo> bobsumone_, doesnt your bios turn the internal on off if there's another one in agp/pci?
[12:27] <bobsumone_>  ubuntu starts on screen 0 and jumps to screen 1 durring boot
[12:27] <BrightEyes_> SlimeyPete: i saw that my sound card is compatible..how can i now check my mic?
[12:27] <bobsumone_>  no, only on AGP, i used PCI
[12:27] <bobsumone_>  the config works on windows fine
[12:27] <Jadder> yes Flannel this is different, have more command
[12:28] <zambaboo> bobsumone_, search the forums, better luck than here
[12:28] <MSIGuy> Well, that's handy, it comes right to here after an install of xchat...  lol
[12:28] <lgc> n2diy, I'm afraid it won't work. I need to provide a username and password....
[12:28] <Flannel> Jadder: right.  Follow the instructions on the page I just gave you, NOT the other one.
[12:28] <SlimeyPete> BrightEyes_: if your sound card is compatible then your mic is. Ubuntu will talkto your soundcard,and then your soundcardtalks to your mic.
[12:28] <stevej> Has anything happened to libdvdread or libdvdcss in Feisty over the last few weeks? I had been able to watch DVDs, haven't done anything but updates, and now I'm getting errors.
[12:28] <joetheodd> Where can I find the repositories for Sun Java? I forgot. :P
[12:28] <n2diy> lgc, to the fax machine!?
[12:28] <stevej> Java.sun.com?
[12:28] <Flannel> joetheodd: theyre in multiverse
[12:29] <stevej> Sorry, I had to.
[12:29] <joetheodd> Flannel, ah, thanks. Under interpreted languages?
[12:29] <BrightEyes_> SlimeyPete: how can i test it? if i want to hear my voice from speakers then its ok.from kmix i turnon an option and it works.when  i want to record my voice then nothing
[12:29] <mrynit> how do i get my usb mic to work?
[12:29] <bobsumone_>  fail.
[12:29] <timtux> Does somone know any site/company who offers free calls to landlines in sweden?
[12:29] <mrynit> !microphone
[12:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about microphone - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:29] <lgc> n2diy, on the menu, I need to provide, along with the modem number, the username and password.
[12:29] <Flannel> joetheodd: libs I think.  http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/libs/sun-java5-jre
[12:29] <timtux> 12voip does but dosent have an linux client ;(
[12:30] <sexauer>  I upgraded ubuntu from 6.10 to 7.04 and now my synaptics touchpad does not work (was working previously).  I see in the xorg log file that the module for it (synaptics_drv.so) is being loaded. but towards the end of the log i see this "(EE) Synaptics Touchpad no synaptics touchpad detected and no repeater device"  I have evdev and psmouse loaded.  Cany anybody help me out? i've been using an external usb mouse and its drivin
[12:30] <sexauer> g me nuts...i do a "cat <device>" on everything in /dev/input and move my finger on the touchpad, but get nothing on all devices
[12:30] <Tiradin> Flannel: could you help me accomplish this then?
[12:30] <jamman> how about free landline in US?
[12:30] <n2diy> lgc, so use your user name and password.
[12:30] <SlimeyPete> BrightEyes_: hmm,odd. Is there a recording mode for kmix?
[12:30] <jamman> to landlines for free.
[12:30] <cables> !offtopic
[12:30] <Flannel> Tiradin: partition hdb.  Open up gparted and make a partition
[12:30] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:30] <lgc> n2diy, as dummies?
[12:31] <Tiradin> Flannel: gparted?
[12:31] <Flannel> Tiradin: yeah, it's the gnome partition editor.  You might need to install it
[12:31] <Tiradin> Flannel: I also really don't know how to partition it
[12:31] <BrightEyes_> SlimeyPete: no.
[12:31] <jamman> anybody know of a way to call landlines free in the us?
[12:31] <Sergo> hello
[12:31] <Flannel> Tiradin: what are you going to be doing with it?  How do you want to use this second drive?
[12:32] <n2diy> lgc, I don't know!? If you were using minicom you'd be done by now.
[12:32] <Sergo> sorry, how to open execute an executable program from terminal/
[12:32] <Sergo> ?
[12:32] <SlimeyPete> BrightEyes_: not sure then, sorry :/
[12:32] <lgc> n2diy, you convinced me... let me install it.
[12:32] <SlimeyPete> Sergo: just type its name. if you downloaded it manually you may have to moveto the correct directory first
[12:32] <Tiradin> Flannel: storage, I need to back up some things on one of my hda partitions to reformat
[12:32] <madman91> is it possible to mount several drives under one mount point ? ... or create a raid with many external usb harddrives?
[12:32] <jamman> Sergo, what file type?
[12:32] <Flannel> Tiradin: ah.  ok, just make the whole thing one big ext3 partition then.
[12:33] <Tiradin> Flannel: needs to be fat, but other than that.
[12:33] <Sergo> SlimeyPete yes but terminal says bash: hello: command not found
[12:33] <lgc> n2diy, now what?
[12:33] <Flannel> Tiradin: eh?  how big is the drive?
[12:33] <Sergo> jamman: executable c hello file
[12:33] <Sergo> =)
[12:33] <back4dead> anyone know a console mp3 player?
[12:33] <lgc> n2diy, brb...
[12:33] <Tiradin> FLannel: 160gb, i'm backing everything up to re-install windows as well as linux.
[12:33] <n2diy> lgc, open a terminal, and type minicom.
[12:33] <SlimeyPete> Sergo: so you've compiledthe code into a file called hello?
[12:33] <jamman> well, Sergo, most likely sh path/to/file
[12:34] <stevej> Sergo: Is it in your $PATH?
[12:34] <Sergo> SlimeyPete: yes
[12:34] <SlimeyPete> Sergo: try "chmod +x hello" then "hello"
[12:34] <Jadder> wow, thanks  you a lot of Flannel, I did two comand, then I went to manage aplication "I speak spanish, I dont know how to this call in english," and I put google earth, then is in the list,
[12:35] <Jadder> how I update my list, always?
[12:35] <Flannel> Tiradin: alright, you'll probably be ok.  As long as you don't have any files over 4GB.  But actually, you're probably better off tarring everything up and backing it up that way (there are utilities to help you back everything up).  You'll want to preserve permissions and stuff, fat won't be able to do that.
[12:35] <Nikolas> Sergo, ./hello if it's in the current working directory
[12:35] <Sergo> Nikolas: thanks, this works
[12:35] <Flannel> Jadder: what?  "reload" or whatever will refresh your package list in synaptic.
[12:35] <Tiradin> Flannel: i'll tar up the bigger files I think.. I was going to look for 7zip
[12:35] <Sergo> =] ] 
[12:35] <Flannel> !backup | Tiradin
[12:35] <ubotu> Tiradin: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning
[12:36] <Jadder> if I can reload why then I have to download  a reposity, not is the same?
[12:36] <Tiradin> Flannel: I also don't really have many files over 160gb
[12:36] <Tiradin> err
[12:36] <Tiradin> over 4gb
[12:36] <Flannel> Tiradin: well, the permissions issue still stands.  You won't want to lose those.

[12:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fax - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:36] <jamman> !fax
[12:36] <lgc> n2diy, I'm back.
[12:36] <Flannel> Tiradin: even if you just tar/gz up your entire linux, then put that on FAT (except that'll probably be bgiger than 4GB), you'll be ok.
[12:37] <Acu> Apache2 question: I want to create a new virtual host : 1 ) I create a new directory in /var/www/ (called web2)/  2) I create in /etc/apache2/sites-available/  a new file called web.com and enabled it by a2ensite - two questions: even I disabled the default ( a2dissite) when I browse as localhost it does attempt to go to open from olde apache2-default - what should I do?
[12:37] <n2diy> lgc, open a terminal, and type minicom.

[01:09] <juaco> jamman if you want to help MasterZ first i can wait a while it's ok for me, and thank you for the help pal
[01:09] <bluebanana> Is there a way to give a program a shortcut key? For example, if I press Control+Shift+Alt+F, i can open up firefox from anywhere in ubuntu?
[01:09] <GeekMaster1> . Really quick question.... How do I extract an archive to /opt directory from my desktop?
[01:09] <ChIkEn> When I put in my disc I burned, I click 'Install or Start Ubuntu', and it says 'Loading', then it just sits there for ages
[01:09] <unagi> !terminal
[01:10] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[01:10] <PurpZeY_> Master_Z: ies4linux
[01:10] <unagi> is there a shortcut for the terminal?
[01:10] <inkybutton> amund: what i meant was, on the NTFS partition you want to format to FAT32 do you want all the files deleted?
[01:10] <jamman> juaco, you must recompile the kernel as well.
[01:10] <juaco> did it
[01:10] <GeekMaster1> Anyone?
[01:10] <lgc> n2diy, but it's sending to device ttyS1, and not to ttyS8. Let me change that...
[01:10] <jamman> juaco, really?
[01:10] <juaco> following the guide from master kernel thread
[01:10] <bluebanana> is there a way to make my desktop hide my panel, but when a program blinks to notify me of something, it will bounce up and down (a la Apple)?
[01:10] <unagi> sigh i dont understand why it has to be so difficult just to play dvds =(
[01:10] <jamman> juaco, with the needed thingy?
[01:10] <ChIkEn> Can anyone help me with my issue?

[01:10] <GeekMaster1> Can anyone help me?
[01:10] <juaco> yes, i mean after editing the header file
[01:10] <ChIkEn> 6.10 install?
[01:11] <jlee> GeekMaster1: what's the question?
[01:11] <ChIkEn> whats wrong with 7.04?
[01:11] <GeekMaster1> How do I extract an archive to /opt directory from my desktop?
[01:11] <dizzydan92> r4ge: on private
[01:11] <tarelerulz>  I deleted some file/folders  on my ntfs partition  with Nautilus  and it did not delete ,but it made .trash folder on the ntfs . How do I real delete something?
[01:11] <jlee> in the dropdown box, there should be an "other" option
[01:11] <PurpZeY_> ChIkEn: If you are just looking to install using the alternate install CD might alleviate the problem.
[01:11] <jlee> that will allow you to choose folders
[01:11] <n2diy> lgc, you have nine comm ports?
[01:11] <ReServe2> ChIkEn; On my server, 7.04 did not want to start, just like at your computer. Dont know what this is.
[01:11] <dizzydan92> tarelerulz: esti din romania ??

[01:14] <amund> inkybutton: And there is a lock next to the partitions
[01:14] <bluebanana> Is there a way to give a program a shortcut key? For example, if I press Control+Shift+Alt+F, i can open up firefox from anywhere in ubuntu?

[01:17] <Master_Z> madunz: sorry

[01:22] <cylent77> BrightEyes`: aMSN
[01:22] <Master_Z> jamman: I can see you are flooded with requests of help lol, so I will get help from someone else if you wish
[01:22] <inkybutton> HoocH: read syslog
[01:22] <tech13> I recently got a USB Flash Disk.  I've copied a couple files (152K total) to it and unmounted it. (via KDE - safely remove)  It has been flashing for the last few minutes since.  Where are some places to check what it is up to?
[01:22] <back4dead> some extensions don't work with newest version and I don't know how to install something from the xpi file directly ;p
[01:22] <HoocH_> inkybutton, I am there now... but like what should I look for ?
[01:23] <r4ge> acid-trip: do you wanted to upgrade from 6.10 -> 7.04?
[01:23] <jamman> Master_Z, which one was your's? :-D
[01:23] <inkybutton> HoocH: and find a day / time when it crashed
[01:23] <acid-trip> ya
[01:23] <r4ge> http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading
[01:23] <Master_Z> jamman: the sound one
[01:23] <dizzydan92> whats the command to erase ubuntu :P ? ?
[01:23] <r4ge> dizzydan92: rm -rf /*
[01:23] <sheep-> Do you happen to know the shortcut for tileing the windows?
[01:23] <jamman> Master_Z, which chip?
[01:23] <revvltn> please someone help with LVM ASAP
[01:23] <Syco> Hey guys i recently installed ubuntu and was wondering what guide i should follow to get my wireless belkin adaptor working
[01:23] <Master_Z> jamman: Sigmatel STAC 9200
[01:23] <n2diy> lgc ctrl-a, o and then setup serial port, and change ttyS8 to 0, save and exit.
[01:23] <GeekMaster1> it was sudo tar xzvf ~/Desktop/cairo-dock.tar.gz -C /opt
[01:24] <jamman> Master_Z, and what was wrong with it?
[01:24] <revvltn> I gotta set up LVM system reall soon otherwise I will get fire without food to fee my 7 children
[01:24] <jamman> juac1, how are you coming along?
[01:24] <dizzydan92> r4ge: it seems you really helped me out this night .. i'll check this hub after i install other linux kernel based os .... :* bye
[01:24] <HoocH_> inkybutton, It only shows me the last 25min on the syslog thingy
[01:24] <acid-trip> r4ge: it's not showing my that upgrade button
[01:24] <acid-trip> :/
[01:24] <Master_Z> jamman: no sound for some reason, not even system sound. Alsamixer lists the chip and I can do volume control and all, its as if its muted or something.
[01:24] <r4ge> what is the current version you are running
[01:25] <acid-trip> 6.06
[01:25] <juac1> i'm configuring, but meanwhile reading the thread it says to NOT heck EFI...i'm puzzled
[01:25] <revvltn> can I transplant the dirs into an lvm partition?
[01:25] <jamman> Master_Z, i remember you now.
[01:25] <lgc> n2diy, you mean '0' or '/dev/tty0'? The fax program looks by default for ttyS1.
[01:25] <jamman> Let me see.
[01:25] <r4ge> ok, we can also do it from the command line.
[01:25] <inkybutton> umm ok on the bottom left of the program select a day which is in bold other than today and check for a time when you crashed
[01:25] <revvltn> like copy usr into lvm usr, var into lvm var, and so on?
[01:25] <inkybutton> HoocH:umm ok on the bottom left of the program select a day which is in bold other than today and check for a time when you crashed
[01:25] <acid-trip> sudo apt-get install update-manager-core
[01:25] <acid-trip> that one rage?
[01:25] <juac1> i have it turned off in this kernel, thought that enabled it maybe solve the problem
[01:25] <n2diy> lgc ttyS0
[01:25] <revvltn> would that work?
[01:25] <juac1> though maybe at this point i could try aswell
[01:26] <n2diy> lgc, ok use ttyS1
[01:26] <r4ge> acid-trip: hold up.
[01:26] <unagi> what is the unix equivelant of cd..
[01:26] <mike_> Can someone tell me what to do with "NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100-14.06.pkg1.run" cos I dont know at all
[01:26] <inkybutton> unagi: cd :)
[01:26] <acid-trip> unagi: cd
[01:26] <mike_> :(
[01:26] <unagi> not cd
[01:26] <unagi> cd..
[01:26] <unagi> to go back one directory
[01:26] <acid-trip> cd ..
[01:26] <acid-trip> :D
[01:26] <inkybutton> :)
[01:27] <juac1> so i'm enabling it, along with # CONFIG_KARMA_PARTITION too "just in case"

[01:27] <lgc> n2diy, but it seems minicom resetted the speed to 38400. Maybe I shouldn't allow it to reset settings.
[01:27] <unagi> wow
[01:27] <unagi> thanks lol
[01:27] <unagi> weird
[01:27] <HoocH_> inkybutton, the funny thing is that it hasn't saved the log before the crash, so I have no clue here :( I can only see what is logged after I started it up again :(
[01:27] <revvltn> hello? will it work if I transplant hte directories of a Ubuntu  installation into LVM the boot of lvm?
[01:27] <revvltn> would that do the trick?
[01:27] <unagi> is there a keyboard shortcut for the terminal?
[01:27] <inkybutton> mike_:Applications > Accessories > Terminal
[01:27] <n2diy> lgc, don't worry about the speed, hopefully the fax program will deal with that.

[01:50] <r4ge> this is for anyone having trouble with the terminal: https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/basic-commands/C/
[01:51] <cormarrr> Hi, I am having trouble formatting my drive to install Ubuntu, anyone help for a sec?
[01:51] <n2diy> lgc, ok, we need to figure out how to talk to your modem, kppp might be easier to use then minicom.
[01:51] <kurizocan6> Terminal is not accepting my standard password. What's the trick?
[01:51] <jamman> Master_Z, should be doin lots of stuff and will take a while.
[01:51] <Master_Z> just "make" ?
[01:51] <inkybutton> mike_: try glxgears
[01:51] <cchance> is there any confirmed reports out their that people got their lucent/agree Winmodems working?
[01:51] <CraZy675> how do I install k3b?
[01:51] <mike_> what is that?
[01:51] <mea-culpa> hello
[01:51] <malefico> anybody knows if breezy repositories were changed lately ? seems like I can't find anything there (404)
[01:51] <jamman> Master_Z, just "make"
[01:51] <mea-culpa> how can i goto the greek server?
[01:51] <Skiessi> mike: glx test program
[01:51] <Master_Z> jamman: k, its doing stuff again
[01:51] <Scunizi> CraZy675, sudo apt-get install k3b
[01:51] <inkybutton> mike_: its for testing 3D acceleration. go into a terminal, type in glxgears
[01:52] <jabagawee> can someone help me with networkin problems or is that another channel?
[01:52] <kurizocan6> thanks r4ge
[01:52] <CraZy675> Scunizi: when I install it that way it doesnt work. I get the error msg: k3b: error while loading shared libraries: libk3bdevice.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[01:52] <inkybutton> mike_: if you can see the gears moving then it means you can run Beryl and 3D games.
[01:52] <jamman> Master_Z, like i said, its going to take a couple of minutes
[01:52] <brk3> hi, how can I take a screenshot of my desktop while the compiz cube is rotating?
[01:52] <KennyG3987> hey, I have been messing around with trying to upgrade mono and gtk-sharp in Ubuntu 7.04 and now mono doesn't work.  I think I have the "normal" supported packages installed now, but mono starts to load but then fails.  I think I need to do a repair install but have no idea how.  Any help would be greatful.
[01:52] <lgc> n2diy, is there a gnome equivalent for kppp?
[01:52] <Master_Z> jamman: thats fine, I have plenty of time
[01:52] <Scunizi> CraZy675, are you running gnome or kde?
[01:52] <CraZy675> kde
[01:53] <jamman> Master_Z, I might not...
[01:53] <Scunizi> CraZy675, I'd uninstall then use Synaptic to reinstall.
[01:53] <n2diy> lgc, I'm not sure, gppp maybe? Kppp works fine in gnome, I'm using it now.
[01:53] <CraZy675> Scunizi: I'll try that
[01:53] <Master_Z> jamman: oh
[01:53] <betho> oi
[01:53] <mike_> inkybutton, I dont think the driver it is working properly - because I do not have the options for top resolution of my monitor :(
[01:53] <jamman> Master_Z, yeah, i need to head home in about five minutes.
[01:53] <betho> alguem compila arquivo ai ?
[01:53] <jamman> I should be back on tho.
[01:54] <Scunizi> CraZy675, actually you're on kde so I would think it's already installed.. I think it's the default
[01:54] <xRainbows> hi, i just ran the command fsck, and this is the result, is it ok? http://paste.debian.net/30697
[01:54] <lgc> n2diy, it's gnome-ppp.
[01:54] <Master_Z> jamman: think we can get done in 5 minutes ?
[01:54] <jamman> Master_Z, if im not, then just type "make install" next.
[01:54] <grendel> cchance : wierd, i can connect perfectly fine to one gmail account but not another
[01:54] <jamman> Master_Z, repeat with the libs directory too.
[01:54] <Master_Z> jamman: is that the last step?
[01:54] <CraZy675> Scunizi: yes it is but something I did causes it not to work now
[01:54] <inkybutton> mike_: that doesnt matter, it can be adjusted to be proper. but have you tried glxgears yet?
[01:54] <jamman> Master_Z, all depends on how fast yours is and mine is.
[01:54] <Scunizi> grendel, don't forget the right port numbers in the pop & smtp seciton
[01:54] <n2diy> lgc, ok, but I'm not familiar with that,
[01:54] <jamman> Master_Z, yeah, as far as im aware.
[01:54] <Master_Z> jamman: how do I repeat with the libs?
[01:55] <jlee> Back
[01:55] <mike_> inkybutton, how do I download and install glxgears?
[01:55] <Scunizi> CraZy675, ok.. reinstalling (I hope) should fix it. :)
[01:55] <jamman> Master_Z, cd ../alsa-lib-1.0.14a
[01:55] <jabagawee> its installed by default, i believe
[01:55] <jamman> Master_Z, ./configure
[01:55] <ajmorris_> is there a killall paramater for killing everything?
[01:55] <jamman> Master_Z, make           make install
[01:55] <jlee> jamman: I'm back, Ok, so sound and mic are hooked to blue, how do I change it to be green and pink like it should be?
[01:55] <Scunizi> ajmorris_, BANG
[01:55] <Fawaz> !tc | fawaz
[01:55] <grendel> scunizi i tried that, i am connecting to two accounts, one allows me to connect, another does not
[01:55] <inkybutton> mike_: its in your computer already
[01:55] <n2diy> ajmorris_: shutdown?
[01:56] <jabagawee> i have a little networking question....
[01:56] <jamman> jlee, i am sorry. i dont know...
[01:56] <r4ge> ajmorris_: killall -9 appname, eg killall -9 gaim
[01:56] <mike_> oh it is working!
[01:56] <mike_> :)
[01:56] <mike_> not fast though..
[01:56] <mike_> very juddery..
[01:56] <jlee> jamman: that's cool
[01:56] <Scunizi> grendel, strange.. sorry can't help with this one.
[01:56] <jamman> Master_Z, brb
[01:56] <Master_Z> jamman: ok
[01:56] <ajmorris_> r4ge, i wanna kill everything, not just one app
[01:56] <inkybutton> mike_: oo... thats not a good sign
[01:56] <mike_> inkybutton, should it be juddery? oh dear :(
[01:56] <Fawaz> anyone knows goad and east material to read about tc ?
[01:56] <inkybutton> mike_: it wasnt installed properly
[01:56] <jlee> Everyone: does anyone know? about the sound jacks and getting them to use green instead of blue?
[01:56] <joetheodd> ajmorris_, sudo rm -rf /* (kidding, don't try that)
[01:56] <n2diy> ajmorris_: system > quit > shutdown
[01:57] <Master_Z> jamman: its done btw
[01:57] <grendel> scunizi , it is pretty wierd, possibly because one is gmail and one is googlemail?
[01:57] <inkybutton> mike_: ok so i want your to install it again
[01:57] <ajmorris_> r4ge, mainly just for the sleeping apps that won't kill on shutdown (144) (i believe i have a memory leak but can't find a patch)
[01:57] <Scunizi> grendel, didn't know there was a googlemail.. I thought gmail was googlemail.
[01:57] <inkybutton> mike_: run the driver setup thing again
[01:57] <cormarrr> Please, anyone have a sec to help me get Ubuntu installed? I'm running off of the live cd now
[01:57] <lgc> n2diy, you convinced me. It says 'Connect to', 'User' and 'Password'.

[01:58] <n2diy> lgc, ok, give it your phone number, and try to dial it, if we have the right comm port selected, you should get a busy message.
[01:58] <inkybutton> what_: its good... but its supposed to run smoothly then...

[01:59] <Scunizi> cormarrr, are you using the desktop cd or the alternate cd?
[01:59] <lgc> n2diy, it won't let me type anything. Should I configure first?
[01:59] <n2diy> clay_the_arc: follow along with me an lgc, we are doing it now.

[01:59] <jlee> cormarr: I installed from the live CD as a complete NOOB and was able to figure it out, it has menus that walk you through it
[01:59] <n2diy> lgc, yes
[01:59] <ajmorris_> so i can't killall apps? or is there no memory leak patch?
[01:59] <inkybutton> mike_:what does it say when you try to install the driver
[01:59] <mike_> alot of stuff
[01:59] <mike_> I have a log but I cant find it
[01:59] <jlee> jamie: lol, no Joy, heh
[01:59] <Scunizi> grendel, what do the google help pages say? anything?

[02:00] <Scunizi> cormarrr, ok.. I just went through that.. you're at the partitioning portion right?
[02:01] <cormarrr> Yes
[02:01] <ajmorris_> :( dammit i really need a memory leak patch
[02:01] <jlee> cormarr: eww I don't know man,k can't help you with that
[02:01] <clay_the_arc> n2diy, is there a window for Ubuntu that shows dialing, busy etc?
[02:01] <grendel> i'm thinking it may be because of so many attempts today, o they block pop access possibly? I a combination of different settings... my own account works first time
[02:01] <lgc> n2diy, I have to go to 'Manual config' since my country isn't on the list.
[02:01] <Scunizi> cormarrr, if you type the first 4 characters of my nick then hit tab it will complete. when my nick show up I can see that you're addressing me and you won't get lost in the "noise"
[02:02] <cormarrr> Scunizi: sorry, kinda n00b on IM
[02:02] <Master_Z> jamman: I did make, and then make install, but when I did make install, I got a few errors
[02:02] <inkybutton> mike_: type glxinfo into a terminal and see what happens
[02:02] <Scunizi> cormarrr, no prob.. are you using xchat?
[02:02] <lgc> n2diy, which brings me to 'Name of the connection', 'Phone number' 'Type of call'.
[02:02] <grendel> Scunizi, going to try telneting to see if its connection, shouldn't be though
[02:02] <cormarrr> Scunizi: gaim I think
[02:02] <jamman> Master_Z, such as...
[02:03] <jlee> Master_Z: what about you man, could you help me with switching the output on the sound jacks?  Mine are pushing sound and mic to the blue one instead of green and pink
[02:03] <clay_the_arc> where can i find a driver for "Conexant D110 MDC V.9x Modem"?
[02:03] <n2diy> clay_the_arc: yes, look in apps > internet for something like ppp
[02:03] <n2diy> lgc, ok.
[02:03] <jamman> Master_Z, SUDO make install (not capitalized, just for emphasis)
[02:03] <clay_the_arc> n2diy, i looked in there. it's not there
[02:03] <Scunizi> cormarrr, ok.. I'm going to try to private message you so we can type longer posts. tell me if it works.
[02:03] <nicksick> Can anyone help me find out why I have no sound?
[02:03] <Master_Z> oh sorry
[02:03] <Master_Z> didnt do that lol
[02:03] <jamman> Master_Z, so its "sudo make install"
[02:03] <clay_the_arc> closest thing is terminal service client
[02:03] <clay_the_arc> :|
[02:03] <lgc> n2diy, only thing is I have no clue what to fill in on 'Name of the connection'. Any name?
[02:03] <jlee> nicksick: I just tackled that on mine
[02:03] <Master_Z> jamman: apparently, its doing things now
[02:03] <n2diy> clay_the_arc: ok, then DL kppp
[02:03] <jamman> good.
[02:03] <nicksick> I've tried alsamixer and everything alsa in Add/remove
[02:03] <Master_Z> jamman: done
[02:03] <jamman> Master_Z, can i PM you to mke it easier?
[02:04] <n2diy> lgc, yes
[02:04] <clay_the_arc> n2diy, have a link?
[02:04] <jlee> nicksick: but I really don't know very much, I am a noob
[02:04] <nicksick> How did you fix it?
[02:04] <Master_Z> yes
[02:04] <jamman> Master_Z, now for the libs.
[02:04] <Master_Z> wait wait wait
[02:04] <Skiessi> nicksick : try "aplay -l"
[02:04] <Master_Z> jamman: that was the libs
[02:04] <jlee> nicksick: type this in the terminal "aplay -l"
[02:04] <Skiessi> for start
[02:04] <Tom47> nicksick have you followed any of the ubuntu guides on this?
[02:04] <n2diy> clay_the_arc: system > admin > synaptic, and then search for kppp
[02:04] <jamman> Master_Z, didn't i say the drivers?
[02:04] <Scunizi> cormarrr, doesn't look like it.. ok.. are you at the screen that shows different partions
[02:04] <lgc> n2diy, the number should include the LD-access number?
[02:04] <jlee> Skiessi: can you help me?
[02:04] <Master_Z> jamman: we already did those
[02:04] <nicksick> I've tried everyone I can find
[02:04] <jamman> did you use sudo?
[02:05] <Master_Z> jamman: we did make and make install, I didnt do sudo
[02:05] <n2diy> lgc, nope
[02:05] <jlee> nicksick: I finally figured it out with xmms
[02:05] <clay_the_arc> n2diy, i also need a driver for "Conexant D110 MDC V.9x Modem"?
[02:05] <Master_Z> I did make install and it did a lot of things
[02:05] <nicksick> I got about 3 responses
[02:05] <Tom47> !sound | nicksick just in case
[02:05] <ubotu> nicksick just in case: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[02:05] <Scunizi> cormarrr, if not hit the back key
[02:05] <clay_the_arc> . not ?
[02:05] <jlee> Skiessi: can you help me?
[02:05] <FreeMen23> Hi, im looking for a howto to install win xp (create image) on vmware server
[02:05] <jamman> ok, well do the drivers again (sudo make install)
[02:05] <lgc> n2diy, just from country code on...
[02:05] <n2diy> clay_the_arc: umm, that is a seperatee problem, sorry.
[02:05] <Skiessi> you too have no sound?
[02:05] <clay_the_arc> M'Kay
[02:05] <Master_Z> jamman: whats the command again ?
[02:05] <nicksick> thanks, i'll try those links
[02:06] <clay_the_arc> n2diy, i as well need the ppp or kppp or w/e
[02:06] <cormarrr> Scunizi: I got a chat window with your name on it, but yes that is where I am
[02:06] <jamman> sudo make install                Master_Z
[02:06] <jlee> Skiessi: No, I have sound, but sound and mic are the blue jack.  Sound should be the green jack, and I want the mic to use the pink jack
[02:06] <Master_Z> jamman: no I mean to get to the drivers
[02:06] <Scunizi> cormarrr, click the chat window with my name and type me "something"
[02:06] <n2diy> lgc, we are just trying to test the modem, so you can enter dummy stuff, what we want to focus on, is finding what "device" we can talk to as a comm port.
[02:06] <jamman> oh, cd alsa-dri<tab>
[02:07] <jamman> oh, cd alsa-dri<tab>                     Master_Z
[02:07] <lgc> n2diy, excuse the silly question, but is that my own number or the one I want to call?
[02:07] <jamman> oh, and is the PM open?
[02:07] <cormarrr> Scunizi: I did a few times
[02:07] <lgc> n2diy, ok.
[02:07] <jlee> Skiessi: did you get that?
[02:07] <clay_the_arc> n2diy is there a link to kppp or ppp off the ubuntu site?
[02:07] <n2diy> lgc, a dummy number will work.
[02:07] <Skiessi> yeah
[02:07] <lgc> n2diy, on 'Authentication' is PAP/CHAP good enough?
[02:07] <Scunizi> cormarrr, ok.. nothing showing here..no prob.. When you're looking at the different partitions can you identify the one you want to install ubuntu on.?
[02:07] <Master_Z> jamman: bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
[02:07] <Master_Z> jamman: bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline
[02:07] <n2diy> lgc, yes
[02:07] <jlee> Skiessi: any idea how or where I go to switch that?
[02:08] <Master_Z> oops sorry for double post
[02:08] <jlee> Master_Z the shebang line is wrong, or maybe dos2unix the file
[02:08] <n2diy> clay_the_arc: I don't know, should be in one of the repos.
[02:08] <jamman> Master_Z, no don't copy the tab, just use the tab button.
[02:08] <cormarrr> Scunizi: Not for sure, it is 15GB and is "disk1", but I don't see a 15gb partition, just the whole 80GB
[02:08] <Skiessi> jlee, :( nope, that's a rare problem
[02:08] <clay_the_arc> M'Kay
[02:08] <jlee> Damn
[02:08] <Skiessi> jlee what soundcard do you have?
[02:08] <Scunizi> cormarrr, so you only have one drive and have partitioned it ?
[02:09] <jlee> Skiessi: via 8235
[02:09] <lgc> n2diy, what else should I configure? 'Modems'?
[02:09] <jamman> Master_Z, so you will type in cd ../alsa-dri and then press tab.
[02:09] <Master_Z> jamman: it didnt work
[02:09] <Master_Z> jamman: no such file
[02:09] <jamman> Master_Z, it will fill in with cd ../alsa-driver-1.0.14
[02:09] <alienseer23> !gamepad
[02:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gamepad - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:09] <cormarrr> Scunizi: Yes, a long time ago. xp is on the 52gb, factory restore partition on 8gb, then I made a 15gb
[02:10] <kraypius> if i disable one of my sound cards will wine stop using it and use the other one instead?
[02:10] <n2diy> lgc, yes
[02:10] <Scunizi> cormarrr, did you format it when you made it?
[02:10] <kraypius> its using the wrong one
[02:10] <Master_Z> jamman: ok, its doing things
[02:10] <Jadder> where I get mozilla-thunderbird 2.0
[02:10] <Master_Z> jamman: and now its done
[02:10] <cormarrr> Scunizi: I did, a long time ago, and I did a quick format in XP just a minute ago
[02:10] <Moosejaw> hey all...having issues trying to play an .nsv file i dloaded.  anyone have any suggestions?  I only get audio when i run it in vlc?
[02:10] <Scunizi> cormarrr, in what type of file system?
[02:11] <jamman> excellent. restart.
[02:11] <lgc> n2diy,default is /dev/modem. Should I switch to /dev/ttyS0?
[02:11] <n2diy> lgc, yes
[02:11] <cormarrr> Scunizi: ntfs I think
[02:11] <Master_Z> ok sorry back
[02:11] <lgc> n2diy, and not worry about the speed.
[02:11] <Master_Z> so restart now? @ jamman
[02:11] <jamman> Master_Z, restart.
[02:11] <jamman> it *should* work.
[02:12] <Scunizi> cormarrr, so are you in windows now? or did you boot from the Ubuntu CD
[02:12] <Master_Z> jamman: wait, you sure I am done with everything?
[02:12] <Master_Z> jamman: above it says its muted by default and all of that stuff
[02:12] <cormarrr> Scunizi: I am in the LiveCD
[02:12] <Pizza_Guy> I am trying to share a PSC 1600 on unbuntu to windows xp machines, i got the psc 1600 to work on my ubuntu box, any suggestions?
[02:12] <Pizza_Guy> i can't add the printer on the windows machines
[02:12] <n2diy> lgc, no, not yet.
[02:12] <Master_Z> ok I will restart now and talk to you in a minute then
[02:12] <Scunizi> cormarrr, if you use the arrow keys up and down does the window move so you can see more partitions other than just one?
[02:12] <lgc> n2diy, now what's next?
[02:13] <n2diy> lgc, can you find a test modem button?
[02:13] <lgc> n2diy, no.
[02:13] <n2diy> lgc, maybe in an other tab?
[02:14] <lgc> n2diy, I'm afraid not.
[02:14] <cormarrr> Scunizi: I see 4, sda1 is 54GB (XP?), sda2 (fat32) is 8GB (Restore?), sda3, ia 1GB (dunno), and sda4 16gb (blank?)
[02:14] <Moosejaw> can anyone help me with the nsv file format?
[02:14] <AForgue> I'm trying to install VMWare server, but it keeps telling me that it is already install. I have checked all of my package managers and none of them show it as installed. How can I fix this?
[02:14] <Tom47> Pizza_Guy:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingFromWinXP
[02:14] <n2diy> lgc, ok, click ok, and get to the main dialer window, and try to dial.
[02:14] <Scunizi> cormarrr, progress!  sda4 is your 16 gb partition that you want to install Ubuntu into..
[02:15] <cormarrr> Scunizi: I think so, yes
[02:15] <Scunizi> cormarrr, using the mouse double click that partition and it will open a new window.
[02:15] <Master_Z> jamman: ok I restarted
[02:15] <cormarrr> Scunizi: kk
[02:15] <Pizza_Guy> Tom47: thats how i set it up
[02:15] <lgc> n2diy, just before I leave this window, what is "Telephone cost"?
[02:15] <Pizza_Guy> but when i try to add the printer in windows i get a error trying to find a file
[02:15] <Scunizi> cormarrr, now where it says mount point, click there and change it to /.
[02:15] <Master_Z> jamman: should I open a music program and try listening now?
[02:16] <Pizza_Guy> i have to use the printer disk bc my printer isn't listed
[02:16] <n2diy> lgc, not sure, probably a way to calculate connection costs if your were paying by the minute?
[02:16] <nicksick> None of those websites methods are making the sound work
[02:16] <TurtleBoots> hi all
[02:16] <Skiessi> hi
[02:16] <cormarrr> Scunizi: ok, so remove "/media/sda4" with "/." ?
[02:16] <roler> ok I used a program to instalgnome on my old laptop thata doesn't havae a working cd-rom. but gnome doesn't load. I had to manually install gdm. gdm comes up (proper resolution) but i log in and it hangs. how do I install gnome?
[02:16] <clay_the_arc> where can i find a driver for "Conexant D110 MDC V.9x Modem"?
[02:16] <lgc> n2diy, Ok. I don't have to worry about the volume in bytes, I suppose.
[02:16] <TurtleBoots> anyone here use Beryl?
[02:16] <shiester_miester> TurtleBoots, yes
[02:17] <Scunizi> cormarrr, hang on .. let me ask you this.. do you have anything on the partition that is formatted with vfat?
[02:17] <cormarrr> Scunizi: Nope, 3 ntfs, one fat32
[02:17] <lgc> n2diy, it says the modem is busy.
[02:17] <Master_Z> jamman: its still not playing sound
[02:17] <Scunizi> cormarrr, sorry I ment the fat32 partition.
[02:17] <clay_the_arc> where can i find a driver for "Conexant D110 MDC V.9x Modem"?
[02:17] <TurtleBoots> shiester_miester - had you any trouble getting it to work after installing it?
[02:17] <jamman> Master_Z, mine didn't work, yours?
[02:18] <klobster> do I _need_ the kopt= line in my ./grub/menu.lst?
[02:18] <roler> anyone?
[02:18] <jamman> Master_Z, mine didn't work, yours?
[02:18] <n2diy> lgc: good, edit the config, and try another device, ttySx
[02:18] <cormarrr> Scunizi: Yeah, the 8GB fat32 that HP put as the restore partition, which I would happily destroy
[02:18] <shiester_miester> TurtleBoots, a little.  what sort of trouble?
[02:18] <clay_the_arc> where can i find a driver for "Conexant D110 MDC V.9x Modem"?
[02:18] <jamman> Master_Z, mine didn't work, yours?
[02:18] <jlee> brb
[02:18] <Master_Z> jamman: nope
[02:18] <Scunizi> cormarrr, if you do that you'll never get windows back unless you have external restore disks..
[02:18] <jamman> well, realtek... right?
[02:19] <jamman> Master_Z, well, realtek... right?
[02:19] <Master_Z> jamman: no, mine is Sigmatel stac 9200
[02:19] <Scunizi> cormarrr, the reason I'm asking all this is you're also going to need a swap partition.
[02:19] <cormarrr> Scunizi: Oh, I have tons of Windows XP keys if needed ;)
[02:19] <TurtleBoots> shiester_miester - well I've installed all required packages according to http://www.ridinglinux.org/2007/05/27/3d-desktop-with-beryl-on-ubuntu-feisty/ but it doesn't appear to work
[02:19] <kbj> Hello, is it safe just to press the power button to turn off a computer running ubuntu? I have no screen attached currently
[02:20] <Lo_Pan> ssh in and shut it down
[02:20] <TurtleBoots> shiester_miester - was just wondering if you had any advice - please?
[02:20] <Scunizi> cormarrr, ok then.. lets use the 8gig for swap.. it's way overkill but it's there. :) .. say yes to question when changing the other to /
[02:20] <shiester_miester> TurtleBoots, i recall just doing "sudo apt-get install beryl" or something along those lines
[02:20] <orbin> klobster: what's the line?
[02:20] <kbj> Lo_Pan: I havent installed ssh yet so I cant, and my VNC wont connect.. thats why I want it to reboot
[02:20] <shiester_miester> the aptitude software takes care of installing all the required packages
[02:21] <unagi> is there a shortcut fo the terminal
[02:21] <TurtleBoots> shiester_miester - and it just worked there after?
[02:21] <cormarrr> Scunizi: Ok,  can we just resize the 8GB down, I have 1gb if RAM?
[02:21] <Lo_Pan> kbj: it'll survive
[02:21] <clay_the_arc> where can i find a driver for "Conexant D110 MDC V.9x Modem"?
[02:21] <TurtleBoots> shiester_miester - you using 7.04?
[02:21] <Scunizi> cormarrr, sure.. change it to 2 gig.  that should be plenty.. the Ubuntu partitioner should be able to do it.
[02:21] <Skiessi> TurtleBoots: you must choose the beryl to be your windower
[02:21] <AForgue> I'm trying to install VMWare server, but it keeps telling me that it is already installed. I have checked all of my package managers and none of them show it as installed. How can I fix this?
[02:21] <kbj> Lo_Pan: isnt there some fast hotkey combination?
[02:21] <shiester_miester> TurtleBoots, yes
[02:21] <shiester_miester> and yes it worked
[02:22] <orbin> unagi: not by default iirc
[02:22] <Master_Z> jamman: what are we gonna do now ?
[02:22] <shiester_miester> well, for me at least
[02:22] <Lo_Pan> kbj: plug a keyboard in, ctrl alt f1, log in blind, then ctrl alt delete
[02:22] <Lo_Pan> kbj: should reboot
[02:22] <roy> hello all, i have no 3d acceleration and i need help. im using ubuntu 7.04 with a gforce fx5500 graphic crad
[02:22] <Lo_Pan> although im not sure if you actually need to login
[02:22] <TurtleBoots> skiessi - where do I choose that from - beryl-manager?
[02:22] <cormarrr> Scunizi: I changed sda4 to /. for a mount point, now what?
[02:22] <mrsn0> roy have you enabled the drivers from the 'restricted drivers' manager in system ?
[02:22] <jamman> Master_Z, do there's one more thing i think we need to do.
[02:22] <n2diy> lgc ?
[02:22] <Master_Z> jamman: ok
[02:22] <kbj> Lo_Pan: Its logged in, so I should just press ctrl alt delete? and I will reboot ?
[02:22] <shiester_miester> TurtleBoots, right click the beryl icon in the system tray, click "window manager" then click "beryl"
[02:23] <shiester_miester> thats if its running
[02:23] <jamman> Master_Z, ive just forgotten, so im searching.
[02:23] <lgc> n2diy, yes...
[02:23] <Scunizi> cormarrr, tick the check box to format that partition.
[02:23] <shiester_miester> although i thought you said you had problems getting it started?
[02:23] <Lo_Pan> kbj: if you press ctrl alt f1 it will take you to a console, you will need to log in again
[02:23] <flaxseed> Does the default installation of Ubuntu 7.04 contain KDE?
[02:23] <roy> mrsn0: i tryed it, when i do that ubuntu freez after restart
[02:23] <unagi> is there a way to make a keyboard shortcut for it
[02:23] <n2diy> lgc are testing the other devices? any of them report something besides modem busy?
[02:23] <DarthShrine> flaxseed, No, but Kubuntu has it by default.
[02:23] <Scunizi> cormarrr, now change the 8 gig to 2 and change the 2 gig to swap
[02:23] <kbj> Lo_Pan: ok i will try thanks
[02:23] <MrFeetio> im using Kubuntu and I wanted to know which composite manager works best with KDE?
[02:23] <klobster> orbin: kopt=/dev/sda3
[02:23] <orbin> unagi: yes, sys > prefs
[02:23] <shiester_miester> flaxseed, yeah i think it does
[02:23] <cormarrr> Scunizi: It won't let me. Nothing happens.
[02:24] <TurtleBoots> shiester_miester - ok have set the window manager - but can't get nice 3d cube affect
[02:24] <mrsn0> roy can you explain the freeze more, does X crash once you boot up again or the whole system? are you able to press ctrl+alt+f1 to switch to a terminal
[02:24] <lgc> n2diy, I tried every combination available, to no avail. Only /dev/ttyS* seem to exist, but are all busy.
[02:24] <shiester_miester> TurtleBoots, have you enabled the effect in beryl-settings?
[02:24] <flaxseed> If it doesn't, can I just install it with apt-get?
[02:24] <jamman> Master_Z, i think we need to get the utils as well, back to alsa-project.org
[02:24] <Scunizi> cormarrr, it won't let you resize?
[02:24] <Master_Z> ok
[02:24] <unagi> oh duh
[02:24] <unagi> im stupid thanks lol
[02:24] <DarthShrine> flaxseed, Yeah. The kubuntu-desktop package
[02:24] <n2diy> lgc, internal, or external modem?
[02:24] <shiester_miester> flaxseed, probably...you could try
[02:24] <flaxseed> Cool beans.
[02:24] <cormarrr> Scunizi: I changed the mount point, it won't let me click on the format box
[02:24] <lgc> n2diy, internal.
[02:25] <n2diy> lgc, and a phone line plugs into it?
[02:25] <lgc> n2diy, yep.
[02:25] <flaxseed> Well, I'm looking at the Dell laptop. I'm trying to decide. Dell or Apple. Apples are nice, but pricey.
[02:25] <jamman> Master_Z, might as well grab the tools too.
[02:25] <Scunizi> cormarrr, don't worry.  There's a place to change the file system type right?
[02:25] <TurtleBoots> shiester_miester - hmmm here's something. it keeps defaulting to Metacity under window manager. it doesn't stay as beryl. Why might that be?
[02:25] <shiester_miester> TurtleBoots, thats somewhat odd.  what renderer is it using?
[02:25] <cormarrr> Scunizi: I can edit the partition, where I changed the mount point, change it to what?
[02:25] <n2diy> lgc, ok, for giggles, try /dev/modem, or have you already?
[02:25] <unagi> is there a reason why the shortcut doesnt work after i assign it?
[02:25] <Skiessi> TurtleBoots: have you installed emerald or heliodor?
[02:26] <Moduliz0r> Hi
[02:26] <kbj> Lo_Pan: it worked thanks alot :D which ssh server should I choose ?
[02:26] <bourreau> How can I uninstall a source apache I downloaded/installed?
[02:26] <Lo_Pan> kbj: openssh-server
[02:26] <flaxseed> OK, thanks. :o)
[02:26] <lgc> n2diy, yes. It doesn't seem to exist, which is what efax also told me.
[02:26] <orbin> klobster: i don't think that does anything, that's just a partition. look at the commented examples in the file for the syntax used
[02:26] <Master_Z> jamman: k, just downloaded both to desktop
[02:26] <Moduliz0r> if I were to resize my Linux partition in Gparted, would it rise any issues with GRUB or other booting problems?
[02:26] <Flannel> Moduliz0r: nope
[02:26] <TurtleBoots> shiester_miester - rendering platform = automatic. Is this what u mean?
[02:26] <roy> mrsn0: after restart, when ubuntu shows the orange line it freez after finishing the line. if i want my ubuntu to run again i go to safe mode and using my xorg back up. after that i "exit" and ubuntu starts but with no 3d
[02:26] <Moduliz0r> Ok
[02:26] <n2diy> lgc, indeed, how old is the box?
[02:26] <shiester_miester> TurtleBoots, yes
[02:26] <TurtleBoots> skiessi - emerald
[02:26] <lgc> n2diy, 2 years.
[02:27] <Scunizi> cormarrr, don't change the mount point from /.  for file system, I like reiserfs on sata drives and ext3 on ide. however, ext3 IS readable by windows with a 3rd party driver. reiser isn't
[02:27] <jamman> Master_Z, same. un tar them again with tar xvjf...
[02:27] <lgc> n2diy, it's a Dell Inspiron 6000.
[02:27] <TurtleBoots> shiester_miester - should it be automatic or nvidia (graphics card I have)?
[02:27] <Skiessi> and glxgears is running smoothly?
[02:27] <Master_Z> could you give me the command for one of them ?
[02:27] <bourreau> How can I uninstall the source apache2 I installed?
[02:27] <shiester_miester> TurtleBoots, if you have the nvidia renderer then it will choose that if its set to automatic
[02:27] <Master_Z> @jamman
[02:27] <Endlessguitar> hello
[02:27] <lgc> n2diy, and I never used the modem before, but I a
[02:27] <cormarrr> Scunizi: ext3 it is, now changed
[02:27] <Endlessguitar> can some1 help me?
[02:27] <Skiessi> maybe
[02:27] <n2diy> lgc, but what?
[02:27] <TurtleBoots> skiessi - glxgears gives error = Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[02:27] <TurtleBoots> Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual
[02:28] <Moduliz0r> hmm, how should I go about resizing my working Linux partition in Gparted?
[02:28] <lgc> n2diy, ...am almost sure it exists.
[02:28] <bobbob1016_> I have a laptop with a bcm4300 wifi card, and after a kernel upgrade I can't get on wirelessly.  I've used the package from ubuntuguide.org, and it installs the driver, I can see the wireless network, but network-manager-gnome just sits there
[02:28] <Endlessguitar> when I installed my linux before have I everytime written this commands for the graphic card will works -->
[02:28] <jamman> yes Master_Z
[02:28] <Scunizi> cormarrr, it should automatically format it.. now go for the 8 gig partition.
[02:28] <mrsn0> roy it seems its working fine with the nv driver, but not the nvidia 3d one
[02:28] <bourreau> Can someone help me?
[02:28] <n2diy> lgc, ummm, can you see the phone connectors?
[02:28] <Master_Z> jamman: whats the command for one of them?
[02:28] <bobbob1016_> it circles and sits there
[02:28] <Endlessguitar>  sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new linux-generic && sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals -d 24 -
[02:28] <Scunizi> !help | bourreau
[02:28] <ubotu> bourreau: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[02:28] <Endlessguitar> but now doesnt it work
[02:28] <cormarrr> Scunizi: ok, this one I can change the size of as well as mount point and type
[02:28] <reverseblade> !ask | boricua,
[02:28] <Flannel> bourreau: it's not easy.  see if your makefile has a make remove or makeuninstall, otherwies you just have to delete all the files.
[02:28] <ubotu> boricua,: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:29] <jamman> tar xvjf alsa-tools-1.0.14.tar.bz2 @ Master_Z
[02:29] <roy> mrsn0: so what do i do? i want to be able to run desktop efects
[02:29] <Scunizi> cormarrr, great.. choose swap.  It won't allow a file system change.
[02:29] <lgc> n2diy, I actually have my phone line connected to it through an RJ-11 connector, if I'm right about the number.
[02:29] <Master_Z> jamman: do these one at a time?
[02:29] <shiester_miester> Endlessguitar, what errors does it give?
[02:29] <Trixsey> What is up with package dependencies in Ubuntu? Eclipse/Azureus relies on GCJ (non-optional), gnome-games is part of a ghost package (or w/e it's called) and can't be removed without removing entire gnome. What's the point of modularization if you force links/dependencies between tons of packages?
[02:29] <Endlessguitar> hmm
[02:29] <jamman> Master_Z, yeah.
[02:29] <Endlessguitar> w8 sek
[02:29] <Skiessi> TurtleBoots: was beryl running when you tested with glxgears?
[02:29] <Scunizi> cormarrr, are you in the us?  where?
[02:30] <cormarrr> Scunizi: ok it is now SWAP but it won't let me reduce below 7400MB
[02:30] <Endlessguitar> Invalid commandline, please run `nvidia-xconfig --help` for usage information
[02:30] <Scunizi> cormarrr, alaska
[02:30] <mrsn0> roy it would be interesting to see the xorg log when you get the failed outcome
[02:30] <jamman> Master_Z, cd to the utils first.
[02:30] <TurtleBoots> skiessi - yeah it's present in the system tray
[02:30] <cormarrr> Scunizi: Yeah, Anchorage, AK
[02:30] <n2diy> lgc, ok, can you open the box up, remove the modem card, and then re install it? It is definetly playing dead.
[02:30] <Skiessi> TurtleBoots: not beryl-manager
[02:30] <Scunizi> cormarrr, you may have to resize it later with a tool called .. gparted.. after install that is.
[02:30] <roy> k i'll get it for you
[02:30] <TurtleBoots> skiessi - sorry :-/
[02:30] <shiester_miester> TurtleBoots, you could try playing around with some of the settings in the beryl-settings manager and see if you can get it to work
[02:30] <roy> mrsn0: k i'll get it for you
[02:30] <cormarrr> Scunizi: kool, no worries
[02:31] <Master_Z> jamman: the tar xvjf alsa-utils-1.0.14.tar.bz2 command or something else ?
[02:31] <shiester_miester> TurtleBoots, also try asking in the beryl channel, since they probably have more people there that can help you
[02:31] <Skiessi> TurtleBoots: disable Beryl while you use glxgears
[02:31] <Scunizi> cormarrr, ok.. you ready?  hit the "GO" button and let her rip!
[02:31] <TurtleBoots> shiester_miester - I take it I'll have to get glxgears running first though?
[02:31] <roy> mrsn0:be back in 3 min
[02:31] <mrsn0> roy be aware that Xorg.0.log will be the last previous start of X
[02:31] <SoulinEther> anybody know how to change the default cd rom drive read by the vmware player?
[02:31] <Master_Z> jamman: I untarred them
[02:31] <shiester_miester> TurtleBoots, i dont know
[02:31] <n2diy> lgc, no, wait, can you go into bios, and make sure comm 1 and 2 are enabled?
[02:31] <mrsn0> so you will need to try it with the nvidia driver enablled
[02:31] <lgc> n2diy, in principle, yes, but I'd rather do it later.
[02:31] <Skiessi> TurtleBoots: umm yeah that's a good idea
[02:31] <jamman> good. now cd alsa-utils-1.0.14
[02:31] <Scunizi> cormarrr,  now that it's installing.. word of warning..
[02:31] <jamman> except i get an error.
[02:31] <n2diy> lgc, no, wait, can you go into bios, and make sure comm 1 and 2 are enabled?
[02:31] <Endlessguitar> shiester_miester
[02:31] <Endlessguitar> Invalid commandline, please run `nvidia-xconfig --help` for usage information
[02:31] <Master_Z> jamman: k did it
[02:31] <AForgue> I'm trying to install VMWare server, but it keeps telling me that it is already installed. I have checked all of my package managers and none of them show it as installed. How can I fix this?
[02:32] <TurtleBoots> shiester_miester - how do I connect to beryl channel? (I'm pretty much a newbie)
[02:32] <Skiessi> TurtleBoots: the #beryl -channel
[02:32] <cormarrr> Scunizi: error.  It said that the size was too large, then went back to the partition screen. When I hit "Forward" I get the same "No root file system defined"
[02:32] <unagi> anyone wanna try and explain to me why its so much of a hassle to play dvds?
[02:32] <Pizza_Guy> I have installed my PSC 1600 printer into my ubuntu box, it works fine, i followed the steps on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingFromWinXP
[02:32] <Pizza_Guy> how ever i can't install on my windows machine its not picking up the right kind of printer.
[02:32] <jamman> Master_Z, now do ./configure
[02:32] <arooni> is there a nice GUI based SSH app?
[02:32] <TurtleBoots> Superb!! thanks folks  :-D
[02:32] <grendel> shiester_miester,  with the "/join #beryl" command
[02:32] <arooni> i'd like to ssh files into my server
[02:32] <lgc> n2diy, I see. I find myself reluctant to turning off my machine right now. It's been up for almost a month now and have a lot of processes running...
[02:32] <mrsn0> arooni in gnome you can use 'connect to servers'
[02:32] <shiester_miester> Endlessguitar, have you tried installing those packages separately?
[02:32] <Master_Z> then make, make install, and sudo make install ?
[02:32] <Endlessguitar> no :S
[02:32] <arooni> mrsn0: wheres that
[02:32] <mrsn0> then choose ssh from the list, to use gnome-vfs for a gui browser over ssh
[02:32] <Scunizi> cormarrr, ok.. see if you can check the box to format now for that partiton.
[02:33] <mrsn0> places > i believe
[02:33] <mrsn0> im not in gnome
[02:33] <shiester_miester> TurtleBoots, in the server window, type "/join #beryl" i think
[02:33] <Endlessguitar> how does it works? Im newbie
[02:33] <Endlessguitar> on

[02:33] <Flannel> Master_Z: alsa-tools are in the repository.  don't compile them.
[02:33] <arooni> mrsn0: which port for ssh?
[02:33] <shiester_miester> or, just click on this: #beryl
[02:33] <TurtleBoots> thanks :-D
[02:33] <jamman> Master_Z, how's your's coming along?
[02:33] <mrsn0> arooni default 22
[02:33] <patrlck> hi
[02:33] <Scunizi> cormarrr, actually.  for the swap does it have a slider to resize? or is there a box to plug a number into?
[02:33] <Master_Z> jamman: I did ./configure
[02:33] <n2diy> lgc, roger on the uptime, I don't know any other options now, especially since the modem as never been used before, it maybe the comm port is disabled in bios?
[02:33] <lgc> n2diy, but, seemingly, the modem does exist, according0000:00:1e.3 Modem: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) AC'97 Modem Controller (rev 03)'. to lspci: '
[02:33] <Master_Z> jamman: now what ?
[02:33] <patrlck> I still have my no sound problem. It works fine with user root but it doesn't work with my other user. I've read the FAQ's, I tried changing permissions but it still doesn't work .. help please :/
[02:34] <jamman> ok, now Master_Z do sudo make install
[02:34] <shiester_miester> Endlessguitar, just try doing "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new"
[02:34] <cormarrr> Scunizi: there is a box, however I can't type anything less than 7400MB
[02:34] <Endlessguitar> ok
[02:34] <lgc> n2diy, you got a strong point there.
[02:34] <grendel> Scunizi, i think this is more of a google problem than a Evolution issue, I give up
[02:34] <bourreau> I have apache 2 installed from source, but I want to use php with it (I didn't know there was already a package for it that came with Ubuntu). It doesn't want to work with php so I need to switch to the Ubuntu Apache package. There is no makeremove file (or any other uninstallation file that I see), but I wanted to know if it would work if I just installed the distro apache without uninstalling the source apache
[02:34] <Master_Z> jamman: I Got this: make: *** No rule to make target `install'.  Stop.
[02:34] <Endlessguitar> already installed
[02:34] <jamman> Figures... battery died... brb.
[02:34] <n2diy> lgc, ok, if lspci see its, it is there, I'm stumped.
[02:34] <Endlessguitar> hmm
[02:34] <Scunizi> grendel, sorry 'bout that .. make another gmail account and foward one to the other. :)
[02:34] <Endlessguitar> the other command lines
[02:34] <shiester_miester> Endlessguitar, try doing that for each of the packages you want to install then
[02:34] <Endlessguitar> dosent works
[02:35] <klobster> my kernel hangs during bootup?
[02:35] <Endlessguitar> :S
[02:35] <gringer> Multiupdate for new PAM (consolehelper+menu) and adds sysinit rc commands :) http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php/GProFTPd (etc)
[02:35] <shiester_miester> which one doesnt work?
[02:35] <Endlessguitar> but the other?
[02:35] <grendel> Scunizi, i hadn't thought of that!
[02:35] <Endlessguitar>  linux-generic && sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals -d 24 -
[02:35] <Endlessguitar> ?
[02:35] <shiester_miester> err no you want to install those
[02:35] <Endlessguitar> How does it works?
[02:35] <Scunizi> cormarrr, ok..  that drive might be protected. will it let you destroy that partition?
[02:35] <shiester_miester> you cant just paste them in by themselves
[02:35] <racter> can i just view my camera's contents as a folder?  gthumb pops up and reads it but i can't see it in nautilus
[02:35] <lgc> n2diy, hmm...
[02:35] <n2diy> lgc, it is a mystery why lspci sees it, but the fax and ppp software don't?
[02:36] <Stormx2> racter: I'd guess - probably not.
[02:36] <Flannel> bourreau: it'll get messy.  You're best off removing the old apache stuff.
[02:36] <nesl247> Anyone here know anything about the gnome-session ubuntu package?
[02:36] <TakeOut{u}> n2diy, rs232 connector ?
[02:36] <Master_Z> jamman: was I supposed to do "make" ?
[02:36] <bourreau> well do I just have to delete the /usr/local/apache2 directory?
[02:36] <cormarrr> Scunizi: It did, so now I make it a 2GB SWAP. Do I make it a Primary or Logical, and Beginning or END?
[02:36] <n2diy> TakeOut{u}: ??
[02:36] <klobster> my system hangs during boot up, any help?
[02:36] <shiester_miester> you should type "sudo apt-get install linux-generic" and then type "sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals -d 24"
[02:36] <sarthor> Hi, Its my 3rd that i am trying to run Cbq on my ubuntu fiesty Alternat server..but invain.. i am getting the error.. no Configuration file in /etc/shaper/... what will be the configuration file.. Help, if someone can.. thank you.
[02:37] <LordLimecat> klobster: where does it hang
[02:37] <jessie> Master_Z, im now jessie.
[02:37] <LordLimecat> during the splash screen?
[02:37] <sarthor> 3rd day
[02:37] <Scunizi> cormarrr, if you want to use the remaining space for something you'll want to make it a logical
[02:37] <lgc> n2diy, kppp says it's busy.
[02:37] <cormarrr> Scunizi: logical it is, then Beginning or End?
[02:37] <Scunizi> cormarrr, then you'll split the logical creating the 2 gig partition
[02:37] <Scunizi> cormarrr, beginning
[02:37] <klobster> LordLimecat the last msg I see if I remove quiet and splash is:
[02:37] <Scunizi> cormarrr,  or the whole thing
[02:37] <shiester_miester> Endlessguitar, you should type "sudo apt-get install linux-generic" and then type "sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals -d 24"
[02:37] <Master_Z> ok jessie
[02:38] <n2diy> lgc:  yes, something else is using that setting, we should see a different response from an idle modem.
[02:38] <klobster> LordLimecat: Running /scripts/init-bottom
[02:38] <Master_Z> jessie: I Got an error
[02:38] <Scunizi> cormarrr,  make the whole thing logical ... all 8 gigs
[02:38] <Master_Z> make: *** No rule to make target `install'.  Stop.
[02:38] <jessie> alright. so that wont work and i dont feel like messing with it.
[02:38] <n2diy> lgc, or, is this the modem your using now?
[02:38] <Master_Z> jessie: thats what I got when I did sudo make install
[02:38] <bourreau> Flannel: All I have to do is delete the /usr/local/apache2 directory? Or are there hidden files throughout my computer I need to delete?
[02:38] <jessie> let me try one thing and i post my results Master_Z
[02:38] <Master_Z> jessie: ok
[02:38] <TakeOut{u}> !info setserial
[02:38] <ubotu> setserial: controls configuration of serial ports. In component main, is extra. Version 2.17-43 (feisty), package size 56 kB, installed size 192 kB
[02:38] <aboyousif> can anybody help me in that .checking for GNOME... no
[02:38] <lgc> n2diy, let me try with gnome-ppp. Maybe it's more explicit.
[02:38] <aboyousif> configure: error: unable to find the GNOME libraries
[02:38] <Jadder> hello everybody, I had have download firefox-2.0.0.4.tar.gz, I extract here, there is a folder with firefox.bin, but doesnt run, my question is How I install dot.bin files?
[02:39] <mrsn0> Jadder ubuntu comes with firefox?
[02:39] <Pizza_Guy> anyone have any ideas to
[02:39] <Pizza_Guy> I have installed my PSC 1600 printer into my ubuntu box, it works fine, i followed the steps on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingFromWinXP
[02:39] <Pizza_Guy> how ever i can't install on my windows machine its not picking up the right kind of printer.
[02:39] <aboyousif> i use xubuntu but i installed gnome and every gnome -dev isaw
[02:39] <lgc> n2diy, does it have to do with the Ethernet connection also?
[02:39] <Endlessguitar> hmm
[02:39] <Endlessguitar> I reboot
[02:39] <Endlessguitar> brb
[02:39] <Trixsey> What is up with package dependencies in Ubuntu/Aptitude? Eclipse/Azureus relies on GCJ (non-optional), which kind of sucks, since neither is fully compatible with GCJ. I'm kind of a Sun-Java guy too, and would very much prefer if it wouldn't force those packages upon me.
[02:39] <mrsn0> Jadder if you removed it then open add/remove or synaptic, or sudo aptitude install firefox
[02:39] <Flannel> bourreau: er, you installed it to /usr/local?
[02:39] <kbj> IS the only port VNC uses 5900?
[02:39] <Jadder> yes but I dont want firexfox I have last version mrsn0
[02:39] <bourreau> yes
[02:39] <bobbob1016_> I have a laptop with a bcm4300 wifi card, and after a kernel upgrade I can't get on wirelessly.  I've used the package from ubuntuguide.org, and it installs the driver, I can see the wireless network, but network-manager-gnome just sits there
[02:39] <m3thos> hi there, anyone using lvm and having lvm ?
[02:39] <HardDisk> no
[02:39] <n2diy> TakeOut{u}: I tried setserial, and Ubotu didn't know anything about it :/
[02:39] <m3thos> erm..
[02:39] <bobbob1016_> it circles and sits there
[02:39] <Jadder> but I want mozilla thunderbird 2.0
[02:39] <HardDisk> vnc uses 5300, 5800, 5900
[02:39] <m3thos> anyone using lvm and having performance problems ?
[02:39] <bourreau> Flannel: yes
[02:39] <cormarrr> Scunizi: Ok, it is resizing the SWAP down
[02:40] <aboyousif> what is the gnome libraries
[02:40] <n2diy> lgc, I don't think so, they are to diffent devices.
[02:40] <mrsn0> Jadder 2.0.0.4+1-0ubuntu1 is in feisty, what version of ubuntu are you using ?
[02:40] <Jadder> 7.04
[02:40] <Flannel> bourreau: oh, awesome.  Ok, Yeah, it should all be contained in usr/local (/usr/local/etc/ /usr/local/bin/ and so on), just delete those.
[02:40] <mrsn0> then you have the latest :-)
[02:40] <Jadder> canonical send me

[02:40] <ubotu> m3thos: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[02:40] <mrsn0> click help > about mozilla firefox
[02:40] <Jadder> feisty fawn
[02:40] <klobster> LordLimecat: any ideas?
[02:40] <Jadder> but have 1.5
[02:40] <n2diy> lgc, is this the modem you are currently using?
[02:40] <Jadder> thunrderbird
[02:40] <lgc> n2diy, gnome-ppp is quite similar, seemingly.
[02:40] <mrsn0> Jadder can you open a terminal and tell me what uname -a says
[02:40] <bobbob1016_> anyone know how to setup the bcm43** card?
[02:41] <Flannel> Jadder: that's because thunderbird 2.0 wasn't released until a few months ago (after Feisty was released)
[02:41] <n2diy> lgc, what app were you using when we were testing?
[02:41] <mrsn0> firefox 1.5 was in dapper and breezy, not fiesty
[02:41] <lgc> n2diy, I don't get it. I'm trying to use my only modem.
[02:41] <mrsn0> fiesty even* :)
[02:41] <Scunizi> cormarrr, so you created a logical 8 gig then another 2 gig under that right?
[02:41] <Flannel> mrsn0: he's talking about TB not FF
[02:41] <lgc> n2diy, it was kppp.
[02:41] <Jadder> firefox-2.0.0.4.tar.gz
[02:41] <n2diy> lgc, is this the modem you are currently using?
[02:41] <Jadder> Linux jadder-desktop 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP Thu Jun 7 20:19:32 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[02:41] <Huck_2000> bobbob1016_: i had the same problem, I had to edit my /etc/network/interfaces file and add the ssid and ip address and key
[02:41] <lgc> n2diy, I don't get it. I'm trying to use my only modem.
[02:41] <m3thos> I'm using lvm (on top of md raid5 .. but thats not the problem) and I'm seeing performance problems in it.. thoughput is maxing out about 60MB/sec.. when it should reach (easily) 160MB/sec
[02:42] <cormarrr> Scunizi: yes, that is what is happening now
[02:42] <m3thos> tests conducted with bonnie++ and iozone ..
[02:42] <mrsn0> Jadder if you mean thunderbird, then 1.5 is in feisty only, you can check the bug at https://bugs.launchpad.net/feisty-backports/+bug/112513
[02:42] <jessie> brb, Master_Z
[02:42] <Master_Z> jessie: ok
[02:42] <Scunizi> cormarrr, good! you can create another partition with the remaining space and format it ext3 for data sharing

[02:43] <n2diy> lgc, your killing me, kppp has a test modem button, or something like that. I'd have to disconnect to tell you exactly what it is. And of course the modem is busy, I thought(assumed) you were working on a different box. What device did you use to make this connection?
[02:43] <wireless> hello
[02:43] <Scunizi> cormarrr, the mount point should be something like /dev/sda?
[02:43] <lgc> n2diy, As I see it, gnome-ppp scans for S0 through S47.
[02:43] <mrsn0> at the bottom of the link is a 3rd party repository of thunderbird 2, i cant really recommend it as i haven't tried, but the source is there
[02:43] <bobbob1016_> Huck_2000: thanks, I was just going to ask that.  you have wpa or anything?  I'm using wpa
[02:43] <m3thos> iostat -x shows me lvm "lv" indicating io saturation (%util shows up at 100%) just at 40MB/sec
[02:43] <mrsn0> gutsy gibbon has version 2, but thats current dev version :)
[02:43] <tarelerulz> I am using a usb audio mic and headphone plugin and  flash media player to use the headphone  plugged into the usb audio ?
[02:43] <n2diy> lgc, how did you set up this connection?
[02:43] <cormarrr> Scunizi: can I use gpart or something else to later put the 6GB into the 15GB?
[02:43] <Huck_2000> bobbob1016_: I have wep enabled, but you can add that to the file as well I think... then run a dhclient3 in a terminal to get an IP
[02:43] <Jadder> my mozilla version 1.5.0.12 (20070604)
[02:44] <Scunizi> cormarrr, probably..
[02:44] <Jadder> I need version
[02:44] <Jadder> 2.0
[02:44] <Scunizi> cormarrr, never tried it.
[02:44] <cormarrr> Scunizi: kool, one problem at a time, eh?
[02:44] <mrsn0> 1.5.0.12-0ubuntu0.7.04 yea that is thunderbird :)
[02:44] <Scunizi> cormarrr, you got it.
[02:44] <sfsdf>   )
[02:44] <bourreau> when a command (chmod in particular) does something recursively, does that mean it effects subdirectories/files?
[02:44] <lgc> n2diy, I've been telling you: I'm using my Ethernet connection through eth0. But long ago you told me it didn't have anything to do with the modem.
[02:44] <Scunizi> cormarrr, retag the 16 gigs as root /
[02:44] <m3thos> worse... I'm having real problems with LVM: "Writing with putc()...Can't putc() - disk full?"
[02:44] <bobbob1016_> Huck_2000: my ssid has a space in it, do I do "SSID More"?
[02:44] <tarelerulz> So How would I get flash media player to use my usb audio
[02:44] <mrsn0> Jadder check the bug link and maybe try the version linked
[02:45] <roy> mrsn0: did you get the xorg log?
[02:45] <roy> mrsn0:?
[02:45] <Scunizi> are you installing now? or formatting? or what?
[02:45] <m3thos> fresh install, disk usage below 15% ..
[02:45] <n2diy> lgc, ok, got ya, and it doesn't.
[02:45] <Flannel> m3thos: I'd check launchpad for a bug

[02:48] <wireless> i have a Linksys WMP54G card rev 4.1.  I have downloaded Ndiswrapper and ndisgtk.  Ndiswrapper web site suggests that I use the close source driver from Ralink http://www.ralinktech.com. It compiles for 2.4 and 2.6 kernels.  I am running feisty 7.04 Ubuntu.  I downloaded RT73_Linux_STA_Drv1.0.4.0 but am not sure how to load the driver in now.  Does anyone have any advice or helpful websites?

[02:49] <roy> mrsn0: pastebin?
[02:49] <Scunizi> !pastbin
[02:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pastbin - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:49] <Jadder> dot.bin file doesnt install on ubuntu right?
[02:49] <nixternal> good bye!
[02:49] <cormarrr> Scunizi: yeah, I think I just converted the fat32 to swap, and am now resizing
[02:49] <Scunizi> cormarrr, ok.
[02:49] <lgc> n2diy, gnome-ppp says '--> Cannot open /dev/ttyS0: Input/output error'.
[02:50] <kitche> Jadder: it can depedns what the .bin is for
[02:50] <nixternal> hehe
[02:50] <m3thos> I have a hard problem for you guys: how do I migrate a Logical Volume from one volume group to another volume group, keeping their names.. ?
[02:50] <cormarrr> Scunizi: when that is done, I go back to sda4 and then change the mount point to "/." and the file type to root
[02:50] <Jadder> I have several dot.bin file, anyone of them work
[02:50] <n2diy> lgc, ok, try 1-3 and see if it is the same.
[02:50] <Scunizi> cormarrr, yep.. then hit the go button
[02:50] <cormarrr> Scunizi: awesome
[02:50] <NeoGeo64> lol crapflooded
[02:51] <Jadder> like tibia.bin "game, thunderbird.bin and another that I dont remenber now
[02:51] <Scunizi> cormarrr, if it boots slow just wait.. even if the progress bar looks stuck.
[02:51] <n2diy> lgc, can you get your hands on an external modem?
[02:51] <Jadder> everyr software of everylinux distro, can be installe in every linux distro?
[02:52] <lgc> n2diy, same thing...
[02:52] <lgc> n2diy, nope.
[02:52] <cormarrr> Scunizi: hrm, now when I click on sda4 it wants to change it to 2GB, doesn't list root as an option
[02:52] <roler> how do i upgrade to 7.04 again?
[02:52] <Jadder> with cd
[02:52] <roler> over internet...
[02:52] <lgc> n2diy, after all, I might be better off trying CodeWeavers and deal with its steep learning curve...:(.
[02:53] <Scunizi> cormarrr, arrgg.  you sure you were working on the 8 gig before?
[02:53] <wireless> Help Please. I have a Linksys WMP54G card rev 4.1.  I have downloaded Ndiswrapper and ndisgtk.  Ndiswrapper web site suggests that I use the close source driver from Ralink http://www.ralinktech.com. It compiles for 2.4 and 2.6 kernels.  I am running feisty 7.04 Ubuntu.  I downloaded RT73_Linux_STA_Drv1.0.4.0 but am not sure how to load the driver in now.  Does anyone have any advice or helpful websites?
[02:53] <n2diy> lgc, well then, either the connections between the motherboard and modem are dirty, or the comm port is disabled. Or the modem is dead?
[02:53] <lgc> n2diy, s/CodeWeavers/CallWeaver
[02:53] <kitche> Jadder: yes sicne .bin aren't dynamically linked to the libraries and .bin isn't for one distro it's half script half binary
[02:53] <Huck_2000> roler: if your coming from dapper, you should be able to do it with Synaptic
[02:53] <cormarrr> Scunizi: Yes. Sadly I have to run, you were an awesome help though, thanks so much
[02:53] <lgc> n2diy, but how does it get detected.
[02:53] <n2diy> lgc, what's that?
[02:53] <lgc> n2diy, CallWeaver?

[02:54] <Jadder> kitche that mean, half script binary, ? I need to forguet my bin?
[02:54] <kitche> Jadder: the .bin file is half script and half binary the script tells you what it's for and such
[02:54] <m3thos> LVM help, how to move a logical volume (lv) from one volume group (vg) to another vg ?

[02:56] <SAM_theman> !rpm
[02:56] <ubotu> RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[02:56] <jessie> Master_Z, yes indeed. nothing yet. one more thing im trying. re installing the drivers in the alsa-driver-1.01.4 directory with do ./configure --with-oss=yes --with-sequencer=yes --with-cards=hda-intel ; make

[02:58] <mrsn0> roy im not sure that that url is , can you open http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ and paste the text into there, then click paste, once that reopens copy + paste the web address it changes to
[02:58] <kitche> Jadder: cana sk as many as you want really
[02:58] <Jadder> thanks
[02:59] <n2diy> lgc, yes, but kppp doesn't do as much as minicom, but for what we are trying to do, kppp is fine.
[02:59] <roy> mrsn0: i give up. its to dificult for me to understand you

[03:00] <Huck_2000> Jadder: I have an XFX7800GT and it installed for me... dont know if that helps or not
[03:01] <n2diy> lgc, I don't know, all I've used it for was to configure the comm port, and then run it with another app.

[03:02] <Huck_2000> wireless: ndiswrapper -i "your driver name here"

[03:03] <Huck_2000> wireless: if you downloaded it... unpack it, then you should see the name .dll
[03:03] <Huck_2000> Jadder: no, I have a gigabyte mobo and wd Raptor HDD
[03:04] <gringer> MSIGuy: same as you have to get a divx codec for m$ because noone can own it
[03:04] <lgc> n2diy, I see that there's an option to send files. Maybe that's what I want. But it sends me to a menu with "zmodem, ymodem, xmodem, kermit, and ascii". And then sends me to a file selection screen with all my files.
[03:04] <lgc> n2diy, on minicom, I mean.
[03:04] <Jadder> well I dont know but what did you do, to install you xfx7200
[03:05] <MSIGuy> So should I do the gstreamer plugin thing?
[03:05] <ChaosMachine> okay, does anyone at least have any Idea how to uninstall the openchrome driver so I can give reinstalling a try?
[03:05] <n2diy> lgc, roger that, I don't know what protocol a fax uses, so I don't know if any of those options would work?
[03:05] <Draconicus> I'm can't seem to find PPC Ubuntu anywhere. It's not in the download page or any of the mirrors I've tried. Where did it go? D:
[03:05] <MSIGuy> Will that let me play divx, xvid, ect?
[03:05] <Master_Z> what exactly type of file would I look for for a theme?
[03:05] <W8TAH> hi folks -- the website i am on wants the following plugin application x-mplayer2 to play a video stream -- i cant seem to find x-mplayer2 in synaptic -- is there an appropriate replacement?
[03:05] <Huck_2000> Jadder: it just installed normally, then I upgraded the Nvidia drivers after Ubuntu was running
[03:05] <brynjarh> Is there anyone here who can help me set up nvidia TV-Out? I've followed this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=98456 howto, I don't know if it did anything but I get an image on my TV when not running Xorg but once I run Xorg then there is nothing, need some help, I've been using Linux for about 5 years so I wont be a complete asshole.
[03:05] <lgc> n2diy, so you don't know what is zmodem, for example?
[03:06] <gringer> btw, i played C&C 3 on vista for 10 minutes, placed 3 buildings. It crached the whole computer and rebooted. Showed me a window where it said "Sympthom: BlueScreen" <- directx brokenness maybe
[03:06] <Appakot> How to I give myself 'root privilages'?
[03:06] <Huck_2000> Jadder: sorry, that's not much help
[03:06] <Huck_2000> Appakot: type "sudo" before a command
[03:06] <Jadder> I dont know why but when I put on the board my nvidia card, ubuntu load main windows, but when I select star or install ubuntu,
[03:07] <n2diy> lgc: yes, it is a modem protocol, from the 80,s and 90,s for sending files over BBS systems, but that is history now, do to the WWW.
 That is the thing.  I do not see any of that it has 2 folders with no DLL files but it has a file drivers.c
[03:08] <Jadder> begin to write a lot of words like 128mb video, a lot of error then
[03:08] <Master_Z> what type of file is used for an ubuntu theme ?
[03:08] <Jadder> freeze
 Should I download the windows drivers?
[03:08] <Huck_2000> wireless: drivers are .dll files... maybe try downloading from another source?
[03:08] <Appakot> Huck_2000, well, I have firestarter as an application to start with login, but everytime it says I have insufficient privilages, and that I have to have root privilages
[03:08] <Huck_2000> wireless: yes... that's what ndiswrapper is looking for
[03:08] <lgc> n2diy, I see. I just tried the autodetect feature on the default network configurator, with the same result. Maybe you are right about the modem playing dead...
[03:09] <Jadder> my question isnt answer but I going to upload a video, of what happen on my pc,
 Ok I'll give it a go.  Thanks for your patience and help.
[03:09] <Jadder> but my second question is in the same way
[03:09] <n2diy> lgc, yep, re-seat it, make sure it is enabled in bios, and then....?
[03:09] <Huck_2000> Appakot: when Ubuntu boots up, try "sudo firestarter" then adjust the settings from there.... or will it not boot?
[03:09] <jose> Could anyone let me figure out why my microphone is not working?
[03:09] <Huck_2000> wireless: sure! good luck!
[03:10] <Huck_2000> wireless: http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/joomla/index.php?/component/option,com_openwiki/Itemid,33/
[03:10] <Appakot> Huck_2000, no itll boot, it just asks me for my password, but i dont want to have to do that everytime it boots up...basically, im asking if theres some way around that
[03:10] <Jadder> if I can install my video card, and another hardware, can I make a cd or dvd with my ubuntu ?, and when I want install again, just install from my cd then my video and another hardware are working
[03:10] <Jadder> ?
[03:10] <lgc> n2diy, I'll do that, but for the time being, I'll just go to some Office Max and send the damn fax...:).
[03:11] <Huck_2000> I dont think so... you'll always need to login to ubuntu as far as I know... someone else here might know of a trick though
[03:11] <bee> hey guys n gals, anyone else having issues signing into gmail in evolution ?
[03:11] <jessie> Master_Z, still nothing. I am sorry. We both have the hda_intel chip and it sucks.

[03:11] <Appakot> bee, whatd you put in as the POP and SMTP?

[03:12] <shiester_miester> Appakot, gmail tells you how to use POP3 in a email client, you have to check a setting in your gmail account too
[03:12] <Jadder> yes
[03:12] <Master_Z> jessie: so are we done now? Because I need to get off soon.

[03:13] <Appakot> jose, no im looking for a way to not have to type my password in, after loging into ubuntu, so that i can launch firestarter
[03:14] <shiester_miester> Appakot, in their help pages, it tells you how to set up an email client to be able to recieve emails from your gmail account
[03:14] <Master_Z> jessie: I guess I am gonna get off then, looks like we won't have sound for a while : (
[03:14] <Jadder> in the same computer or you mother s computer?
[03:14] <shiester_miester> Appakot, failing that, just use thunderbird :P it checks gmail just fine
[03:14] <kurizocan7> Newbie Q: Is there Shockwave Player for Firefox 2.0.0.4 and Feisty?

[03:14] <n2diy> lgc, yep
[03:15] <Appakot> shiester_miester, sorry is that on the gmail side, or the email client side?
[03:15] <Master_Z> do any of you recommend any applications I should download ?
[03:15] <shiester_miester> Master_Z, thats a /very/ ambiguous question
[03:15] <jose> Appakot: Wait so - you're looking to avoid typing in a password - for logging on to Ubuntu? Or firestarter?
[03:15] <shiester_miester> why not look through the list in "add/remove programs" and try some for yourself
[03:15] <Appakot> jose, just firestarter
[03:15] <jmchaffie> greetz... anyone point me to the best channel for closing help with beryl / compiz?

[03:16] <Master_Z> k thanks
[03:16] <Master_Z> well, I am gonna get off, thanks for the help jessie
[03:16] <shiester_miester> Appakot, the help page is on gmail, when you are logged into your account you can click the "help" link on the top right
[03:16] <lgc> n2diy, OK. I have to tend some family matters...my children have been jumping around me for quite a while waiting for me to go out..
[03:16] <bee> Appakot, what you trying to do ? pop.gmail.com and smtp.gmail.com are incoming and outgoing servers, you need SSL on both and on outgoing you need to check secure
[03:16] <bee> appak
[03:16] <bee> Appakot, you need to ensure POP is enabled in gmail settings also
[03:16] <shiester_miester> jmchaffie, #beryl is a good place to start
[03:17] <Appakot> bee, k lemme check my settings real quick
[03:17] <jmchaffie> great thank you... I didn't see it int he list. Much appreciated.

[03:18] <jose> Could anyone help me get my microphone working? Alsamixer is of  little use, I'm afraid.
[03:18] <bee> Jadder, i saw that, followed it to the T
[03:18] <bee> Jadder, I have tested my own gmail account which works fine in evolution and thunderbird
[03:18] <Jadder> then try again, I care with step
[03:19] <nesl247> Folks, does anyone know if there is an ubuntu site that lists each packages patches, and displays them..
[03:19] <Tom47> how do you un-ignore someone after they have been ignored
[03:19] <jose> err
[03:19] <jose> patches?
[03:19] <jose> You mean, err - dependencies or updates?
[03:19] <shiester_miester> nesl247, thats what a package manager is for
[03:20] <Appakot> bee, ok so, the server type is 'POP', the server is pop.gmail.com, and then type in my username, right the security is TLS, and authentication type is password, right?
[03:20] <bee> SSL
[03:20] <nesl247> jose: I mean the actual patches
[03:20] <poetryshell> I am getting 3 errors during update E: clvm: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 3
[03:20] <bee> Appakot, you need security at SSL and ensure that your username has @gmail.com extention
[03:20] <poetryshell> anyone know why I am getting errors
[03:20] <lgc> n2diy, I really appreciate your help and patience. Even though I didn't get the damn modem work, at least I gained some exposure to some technicalities of it. I'll try again later when I reboot my machine (maybe after the impending upgrade to Edgy). I'll feel better trying things out by myself next time. Thanks again and bye for now.
[03:21] <bee> Appakot,  you in evolution or thunderbird?
[03:21] <nesl247> I know there is the .diff.gz file for each package, but that's not that great if you're trying to look at specific patches
[03:21] <jose> nes1247 - I'm at a loss, though. What kinds of patches? What are you using them for?
[03:21] <Appakot> bee, evolution....hoping it work
[03:21] <Jadder> well my second question is If I have my ubuntu working with my video card, my webcam , my mic ,everything, and I want to make a cd or dvd with my personal ubuntu? can I do that, and when I will need to install ubuntu, I do from my pesonal cd or dvd, and work with everything
[03:21] <kurizocan7> Is there Shockwave Player for Firefox 2.0.0.4 and Feisty?
[03:21] <Jadder> ?
[03:21] <poetryshell> second error E: redhat-cluster-suite: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[03:22] <Appakot> bee, and then for sending mail, the sever type is SMTP, sever is smtp.gmail.com, (does the sever require authentification?) (is there any encryption?) and what is the authentification type?
[03:22] <poetryshell> third error E: system-config-cluster: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[03:22] <bee> Appakot, server does require authentication
[03:22] <bee> Appakot, but there is no encryption
[03:22] <TurtleBoots> anyone recommend a good torrent client please?
[03:22] <shiester_miester> TurtleBoots, azureys
[03:22] <shiester_miester> *azureus
[03:23] <Jadder> utorrent ktorrent
[03:23] <Appakot> bee, ok thats what i thought, so, is the type just plain?
[03:23] <poetryshell> TurtleBoots try to use Utorrent
[03:23] <TurtleBoots> coolio - thanks
[03:23] <bee> Appakot, yep
[03:23] <shiester_miester> utorrent is ok, used too much resources for me though
[03:23] <shiester_miester> i could barely use the damn computer
[03:23] <nesl247> jose: What do you mean what kind of patch. The patches that are used to patch the original package that is gotten from upstream..
[03:23] <TurtleBoots> !azureus
[03:23] <ubotu> azureus is a popular bittorent client written in Java, installation instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AzureusHowTo
[03:23] <bee> shiester_miester buy more ram ;)
[03:23] <shiester_miester> bee, is 2gb enough
[03:24] <Jadder> nobody read my comment? :(
[03:24] <Markeda> How does Ubuntu fare with NTFS? I've heard that Linux tends to corrupt NTFS... Is that true?
[03:24] <daveb272> where can a noobe get some help with upgrading my harddrive and copying it entirely
[03:24] <shiester_miester> i dont think its a ram issue ;)
[03:24] <jose> nesl247 - So.... updates, then?
[03:24] <nesl247> NO
[03:24] <TakeOut{u}> Markeda, back in the day perhaps, ntfs-3g is pretty stable
[03:24] <nesl247> A patch, you know, what's made with diff.
[03:24] <TakeOut{u}> !info ntfs-3g | Markeda
[03:24] <TurtleBoots> is azureus available for 7.04?
[03:24] <bee> shiester_miester, u-torrent was pretty lightweight for me
[03:24] <ubotu> markeda: ntfs-3g: read-write NTFS driver for FUSE. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:1.328-1 (feisty), package size 25 kB, installed size 88 kB
[03:24] <poetryshell> Can anyone please tell me what is wrong with these errors E: redhat-cluster-suite: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[03:24] <jose> nesl247 - aaaah
[03:24] <Markeda> Yes, I know about ntfs-3g, but my concern is that it isn't a partition, but an external hard drive. Does that make a difference?
[03:24] <LastHylian> I'm still a little unsure after looking at some googled stuff, but I would like to make a script that the entire contents of my music folder in Amarok.
[03:25] <Appakot> bee, woohoo, i think its working, thanks for your help
[03:25] <Jadder> well my second question is If I have my ubuntu working with my video card, my webcam , my mic ,everything, and I want to make a cd or dvd with my personal ubuntu? can I do that, and when I will need to install ubuntu, I do from my pesonal cd or dvd, and work with everything?
[03:25] <RadiantFire> Markeda: it shouldn't
[03:25] <bee> Appakot, no problemo, only wish mine did ;)
[03:25] <Markeda> All right. Thank you, TakeOut and RadiantFire.
[03:25] <cables> What's the best video output module for VLC?
[03:26] <Appakot> bee, when in doubt, start dismantiling your computer with nothing but a screwdriver......works for me... (NOT!)
[03:26] <Whebeft> question: I currently have an ATI RADEON xpress 200 video card...i just reinstalled ubuntu (currently 6.06) and my resolutions are messed up. This has happened before and normally i just use "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" but when i restart i get a "frequency out of range" error, what should i do?
[03:26] <ubuntu> install k3b
[03:26] <poetryshell> looks like is too busy here
[03:26] <cables> I'm getting tons of tearing with VLC videos even though XVideo is set to sync to vblank in nvidia-settings and I've chosen XVideo in the VLC output modules.
[03:26] <n2diy> lgc, roger that, GL
[03:26] <bee> Appakot, even when your mail stops working huh? ;O
[03:26] <Appakot> bee, hahaha
[03:26] <bone43> real busy
[03:26] <ubuntu> use vlc
[03:26] <ubuntu> or xine
[03:27] <ubuntu> or mplayer
[03:27] <poetryshell> bye all
[03:27] <bee> what's a decent realplayer alternative/
[03:27] <bee> is VLC useable ?
[03:27] <bone43> se ya
[03:27] <cables> bee: I don't think it plays realplayer files, but I'm not sure about that.
[03:27] <Jadder> can I record my ubuntu sistem? and isntall again?
[03:28] <ubuntu> with vlc can play every type of media file
[03:28] <cables> ubuntu: not really, but it can play most.
[03:28] <bee> yeah but how does it stream real media files?
[03:28] <ubuntu> even vob files
[03:28] <nesl247> jose: soo?
[03:28] <walck> hi al
[03:28] <walck> all even :)
[03:28] <cables> ubuntu: everything can play vob files. I've tried RealMedia with VLC and it just doesn't work.
[03:28] <bone43> Hello
[03:28] <jose> nesl247 - I'm reading up on it
[03:29] <nesl247> thanks
[03:29] <cables> ubuntu: give that nick back to whoever owns it.
[03:29] <ubuntu> well he dont install gstreamer codecs
[03:29] <jose> nesl247 - are you looking to patch your kernel or something?
[03:29] <nesl247> jose: Looking to port ubuntu's patches
[03:29] <ubuntu> or mencoder
[03:29] <walck> I just noticed something not very optimal, recently changed from own compiled 2.6.21 to gutsys 2.6.22-6-386, can't use 2.6.20 due to x3100 graphics support. But the 2.6.22 from apt is not SMP enabled (dual core cpu)
[03:29] <ubuntu> or ffmpeg codec pack
[03:30] <Appakot> bee, ok update.....i can recieve, but not send mail
[03:30] <Whebeft> I currently have an ATI RADEON xpress 200 video card...i just reinstalled ubuntu (currently 6.06) and my resolutions are messed up. This has happened before and normally i just use "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" but when i restart i get a "frequency out of range" error, what should i do?
[03:30] <ubuntu> with this codecs can playe theses media files perfectly
[03:30] <crafteh> I have a wireless connection to the internet on my laptop, and its configured to share the connection through its ethernet port. I connected the laptop and my desktop to a hub.... how do I configure the desktop (running Ubuntu) to connect through the windows computer?
[03:30] <crafteh> Should I use the Zeroconf thing?
[03:30] <ubuntu> well are you use samba for that
[03:31] <Pelo> Whebeft,  open up xorg.conf,  find the horizsync  value range and change the end of the range value
[03:31] <cables> ubuntu: no you don't. He's not talking about file sharing.
[03:31] <bee> Appakot, oh, what error you get?
[03:31] <jose> nesl247 - You check out https://patches.ubuntu.com/   ?
[03:31] <TakeOut{u}> Whebeft, you might be able to fix it by hitting ctrl+alt+ + or -
[03:31] <walck> Is there a SMP enabled >= 2.6.21 kernel available in fiesty or gutsy repositories?
[03:31] <Appakot> bee, nothing, its just not sending, and the progress bar isnt going anywhere
[03:31] <nesl247> jose: Those are patches against debians packages, not against upstream packages
[03:31] <bee> Appakot, did you get a POP password request and failure?
[03:31] <ubuntu> ok excuseme
[03:31] <jose> nesl247 - gotcha
[03:31] <Pelo> walck,  for gutsy info ask in #ubuntu+1
[03:31] <walck> Pelo: can do. :)
[03:32] <crafteh> ubuntu: were you referring to my question?
[03:32] <Whebeft> pelo: how do i do that exactly
[03:32] <cables> crafteh: he was, and he's wrong.
[03:32] <cables> crafteh: samba is just for sharing files w/ Windows computers.
[03:32] <Appakot> bee, no the pop requested my password and that went fine, i started downloading the mail, but when it came time to send a test message i had queued up, its not going
[03:32] <Pelo> Whebeft,  gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:32] <crafteh> cables, do you have any ideas? the laptop is running windows and is configured correctly
[03:32] <crafteh> yeah
[03:33] <cables> crafteh: have you tried plugging the desktop directly into the windows box with a crossover cable?
[03:33] <bee> Appakot, wierd
[03:33] <ubuntu> well i think you sharing your desktop pc with your laptop with windows xp the last one
[03:33] <crafteh> i don't have a crossover cable
[03:33] <cables> crafteh: that would be my guess, but I'm probably not the best person to ask.
[03:33] <Appakot> bee, is my username still gonna be appakot, or should it be appakot@gmail.com?
[03:33] <cables> ubuntu: he's sharing an internet connection through a windows computer, not files through a windows computer.
[03:33] <ubuntu> ok thats right
[03:33] <Appakot> bee, and are we sure the authentification type is PLAIN?
[03:33] <crafteh> i have a hub though which should take care of the cross-over
[03:34] <bee> Appakot, should be appakot@gmail.com
[03:34] <bee> Appakot, i'm sure
[03:34] <ubuntu> well he configure hi ips and net mask
[03:34] <crafteh> should i plug the windows computer into the uplink in the hub or just one of the regular connections?
[03:34] <Appakot> bee, oh....ok thats the problem then....i hope
[03:34] <jose> nesl247 - sorry dude, but this is beyond me. Have you tried asking in #ubuntu-devel?
[03:34] <ubuntu> and dns serves
[03:34] <bee> Appakot, the POP setting should be password
[03:34] <ubuntu> for each one
[03:34] <cables> crafteh: i believe you need a crossover cable
[03:34] <level1> I installed the medibuntu packages and the mp3 packages referred to by ubotu (!mp3) but I still can't get amarok to play mp3s...
[03:34] <nesl247> jose: Nope, will do thanks
[03:34] <Whebeft> and pelo, how exactly do i do the second part you mentioned, the editing of the sync ranges, (i.e. what exactly do i edit)
[03:35] <Pelo> Whebeft, search for a line starting with horizsync =  ??????? ,   change the second value in that to 70 or something
[03:35] <Appakot> bee, right.....ok well it doesnt seem to be working, should i just try my luck with thunderbird?
[03:36] <cables> Appakot: what mail application are you trying to configure?
[03:36] <shiester_miester> Appakot, i find that thunderbird is superior to evolution anyay
[03:36] <Appakot> cables, evo mail
[03:36] <shiester_miester> *anyway
[03:36] <Appakot> shiester_miester, touche, lets give the thunder a shot
[03:36] <cables> Appakot: that definitely works with Gmail. If you want to use it rather than Thunderbird, I can probably help get you set up with it.
[03:37] <cables> Appakot: I like Thunderbird because I don't need PIM functions, but Evo will definitely work with gmail.
[03:37] <Appakot> cables, thanks, but lets see if i can save you some time, ill give thunderbird a shot
[03:37] <bee> Appakot,  you could i guess, i am still confused as to why evolution doesn't work
[03:37] <bee> Appakot, are you outside of the US?
[03:37] <Appakot> bee, ya me too....it seems all my settings are right, and no im in the US....would restarting do anything for me?
[03:38] <bee> Appakot, don't think so, i tried 4 gmail accounts 2 of which worked and 2 of which didn't, it appears to be a gmail issue
[03:38] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> HELP!  I need to upgrade the firmware of my Lite-On SOHW-1633s DVD burner, but the factory supplied firmware update is a WIndows file (.exe) and of course that won't work under WINE for this type of thing.  Anyone have any guidance?
[03:38] <c0rrupt> OmegaCenti, hey i dont know if your there, but i installed pclinuxos and it fixed eveything, auto detected EVERYTHING and full res, no probs,, :D
[03:38] <cables> Appakot: okay, no problem. Gmail has a help page to set up Thunderbird, if you want to look at that.
[03:39] <Appakot> cables, bee, ok thx, ill try my luck with thunderbird and get back to ya
[03:39] <bee> Appakot, good luck ;0
[03:40] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> ... cables?  c'mon man, surely you know!!  hehe ... help!!!
[03:41] <unagi> ok for any noobies in here like me that are a bit too cocky like me heed my warning
[03:41] <unagi> if you plan on editing xorg.conf for ANY reson
[03:41] <unagi> BACK IT UP
[03:41] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> LOL yeah
[03:41] <unagi> that was a little scary
[03:41] <Bluecircle> usually it auto backs up
[03:41] <cables> Em3raldMcSquizzy: i dunno, sorry...
[03:41] <bone43> okay
[03:41] <unagi> but i learned alot
[03:41] <tecknogyk> Anyone have any idea why the user/group names on a folder would appear as numbers after an OS reinstall?
[03:41] <unagi> lol
[03:41] <unagi> i added one too many quotations
[03:41] <roho> why do you edit xorg.conf?  what were you trying to do?
[03:41] <holycow> unagi, that also goes for ANY conf file even for pros
[03:41] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> unagi: luckily, some of us can help you get it all fixed up even if you broke your xorg.conf
[03:42] <unagi> get my wireless mouse to work
[03:42] <unagi> well the problem was i couldnt boot up
[03:42] <unagi> so i couldnt even get help
[03:42] <unagi> lol
[03:42] <unagi> eventually i loaded the live cd and sudo gedited it back
[03:42] <cables> unagi: how did breaking xorg.conf prevent you from booting?
[03:42] <crafteh> what does roaming do on a wired connection?
[03:42] <unagi> stupid quotation lol
[03:42] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> unagi: good point.  just familiarize yourself with it, then you can sudo nano edit the file on your own ;)
[03:42] <Bluecircle> unagi: usually xorg will automatically backup your xorg.conf file if you make changes, check /etc/X11/ for fiels like xorg.conf.200706152343 etc.
[03:42] <unagi> well my guess cables is that with one extra quote on a line ubuntu either couldnt or refused to continue in the conf
[03:43] <unagi> so therefore X wouldnt load
[03:43] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> unagi: and yeah, xorg.conf doesn't prevent you from booting, just from getting the gui
[03:43] <unagi> wrong choice of words
[03:43] <unagi> i had access to the system
[03:43] <pkundu> hi I want to change the font size and color of the console I get by pressing Ctl+Alt+F1-F6. How can I do it?
[03:43] <cables> unagi: X not loading != computer not booting :)
[03:43] <unagi> but VI isnt nice
[03:43] <tecknogyk> I lost a hard drive on my home server and now I'm having problems changing permissions on one particular folder.  I'm guessing it has something to do with an old user id....
[03:43] <cables> unagi: you can use IRSSI to talk to us in a CLI
[03:43] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> unagi use nano instead of vi
[03:43] <Bluecircle> use nano
[03:43] <unagi> irssi?
[03:43] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> !irssi
[03:43] <unagi> nano xorg.conf?
[03:43] <ubotu> irssi is a command line interface !IRC client. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Irssi for help
[03:43] <unagi> !irssi
[03:44] <cables> unagi: it's a command line IRC client
[03:44] <holycow> unagi, try nano.  the whole ui is documented on the bottom of the terminal
[03:44] <cables> unagi: also, for other protocols, use gaim-text
[03:44] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> unagi: don't forget the sudo for that ... sudo nano xorg.conf
[03:44] <unagi> command line anythings scare me
[03:44] <unagi> lol
[03:44] <unagi> thank you
[03:44] <unagi> =)
[03:44] <unagi> but man
[03:44] <unagi> ive only been running linux for 5 days
[03:44] <holycow> unagi, after you find nano, its not that scary
[03:44] <unagi> talk about scary
[03:44] <cables> unagi: once you learn the IRC commands (/server irc.freenode.net /nick unagi /join #ubuntu) you'll be fine
[03:44] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> unagi: you'll get used to it :D ... CLI becomes less scary with time.
[03:44] <unagi> im like dear god please dont make me have to reformat
[03:44] <unagi> i JUST got shake and bluetooth working
[03:44] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> unagi: LOL that would suck.
[03:44] <unagi> lol yes it would
[03:44] <holycow> unagi, the upside of that is if you hose it and need to reinstall it, no need to 'activate it' and get someone elses permission to use it
[03:45] <holycow> :)
[03:45] <unagi> ive been working hard
[03:45] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> I'm just trying to update my firmware on my burner ... no linux native files ...
[03:45] <tecknogyk> It gets easier the more you use it...heh
[03:45] <cables> unagi: I think < sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg > will recreate your xorg.conf. If it doesn't, you can boot up the LiveCD and copy the xorg.conf off of that.
[03:45] <unagi> anyone wanna tell me the easiest way to get dvds playing on ubuntu?
[03:45] <holycow> it actually gets VERY easy, so much so that going back to a black box like windows is unbearable
[03:45] <cables> !dvd | unagi
[03:45] <ubotu> unagi: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[03:45] <unagi> ive tried that tutorial
[03:45] <unagi> it didnt work for me
[03:46] <cables> holycow: the Windows CLI is really icky, all those damn backslashes
[03:46] <unagi> yea i saw that in the file itsself
[03:46] <cables> unagi: try installing VLC
[03:46] <tecknogyk> backslashes suck
[03:46] <unagi> sudo apt-get install vlc?
[03:46] <cables> unagi: yep
[03:46] <cables> damn, I think holycow has me on his ignore list, so he didn't see that.
[03:46] <holycow> everything in windows is just plain wrong
[03:46] <unagi> i have learned so much
[03:46] <cables> there you are :)
[03:46] <unagi> i dunno i like windows
[03:46] <unagi> but windows is for play
[03:46] <kzfr> hi
[03:46] <unagi> linux is for work
[03:47] <kzfr> anyone from poland?
[03:47] <holycow> unagi, the werid thing about linux is that it will actually let you understand HOW windows works
[03:47] <holycow> the more you know about the subsystems in linux and how to configure them, when you are on a window smachine you will go 'oh shit so this is why this behaves like this'
[03:47] <unagi> this is true
[03:47] <unagi> though it is strange that in linux....bluetooth devices etc are folders
[03:48] <cables> unagi: everything in Linux is a file
[03:48] <holycow> cables, i'm only an asshole on every odd day
[03:48] <holycow> *cough*
[03:48] <holycow> :)
[03:48] <shiester_miester> unagi, thats because EVEYRTHING in linux is a file
[03:48] <cables> holycow: ha
[03:48] <kzfr> hey anyone know how set "time shutdown computer" ?
[03:48] <cables> unagi: your hd is a file, your soundcard, your mouse... and you can access them all the same way.
[03:48] <logan__> yeah
[03:48] <shiester_miester> unagi, see that file copy command? its a file.  the thing that draws the borders around windows? its a file.  :P u get the idea
[03:48] <unagi> yea its so weird to me
[03:48] <cables> !cron | kzfr
[03:48] <holycow> as they said, you can litterally write to your sound card
[03:48] <ubotu> kzfr: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto  -  There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm
[03:48] <unagi> yea yea
[03:48] <unagi> u know what i mean
[03:48] <unagi> lol
[03:48] <maeth> hi, im having some reaaally bothering problems with my ubuntu pc and a friend of mine too... its about packages...
[03:48] <holycow> you can take a text file and send it to your sound card
[03:48] <holycow> thats always fun
[03:48] <Jadder> how I install on ubuntu, dot.bin file? I have thunderbird 2.0 ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/releases/latest-2.0/linux-i686/es-ES/
[03:48] <kzfr> i try
[03:48] <shiester_miester> whereas in windows its all one huge bowl of jumbled spaghetti so if one thing breaks it screws up everything else
[03:48] <unagi> what would the sound card to with it
[03:48] <cables> unagi: try this: cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp
[03:49] <cables> unagi: make random sounds
[03:49] <unagi> what does that do
[03:49] <unagi> the last time i did something someone told me to do in here it blanked the screen
[03:49] <unagi> and i couldnt get back
[03:49] <shiester_miester> but in linux, since its all separate files, if one breaks its just that one that broke :P
[03:49] <unagi> ew
[03:49] <unagi> pink noise
[03:49] <Appakot> cables, bee, FYI, so far so good in Thunderbird.....with POP atleast....
[03:49] <unagi> how do i get it to stop
[03:49] <unagi> lol
[03:49] <cables> unagi: /dev/urandom is a file that puts out random binary data, you get white noise when you send it to the soundcard
[03:49] <unagi> ow
[03:49] <unagi> that hurt
[03:49] <cables> unagi: ctrl-c
[03:49] <unagi> lol
[03:49] <kzfr> thanks ubotu
[03:50] <cables> kzfr: you mean thanks cables, ubotu is a bot :)
[03:50] <Jadder> how I install on ubuntu, dot.bin file? I have thunderbird 2.0 ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/releases/latest-2.0/linux-i686/es-ES/
[03:50] <kzfr> lol , sorry this is my first time in irc
[03:50] <cables> that's ok
[03:50] <unagi> that was funny
[03:50] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> .. sniff .. still no help with my firmware.
[03:50] <GrueTamer> Jadder: you mean the .tar.gz file?
[03:51] <cables> Jadder: put it on your desktop, and open the terminal.
[03:51] <unagi> !dvd
[03:51] <kzfr> thanks cables - he too is a bot?
[03:51] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[03:51] <baconbits> I have sort of a general, philosophical question...do windows games generally run OK under WINE?
[03:51] <Jadder> yes I have tar.gz file, then i extacted then I have a lot of file one of them is thuberdir.bin
[03:51] <unagi> man my heart sank when ubuntu locked and wouldnt gimme a gui
[03:51] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> baconbits: haha ... thats a common debate.  Some do, some don't, many have native linux executables.
[03:51] <cables> Jadder: then run this command: < cd Desktop/ && sudo sh filename.bin >
[03:51] <unagi> i was like OH NO!
[03:51] <unagi> i have another question
[03:51] <holycow> baconbits, generally no
[03:51] <shiester_miester> anybody know of any docks that have simlar functionality to "kiba-dock" (minus useless physics) but dont rape the CPU
[03:51] <cables> Jadder: but replace filename with the real filename
[03:52] <unagi> if i do something or edit something and it gets buggy
[03:52] <unagi> does deleting the user and creating another usually fix it?
[03:52] <_gpg_> is there anyway to make terminal transparency (without using beryl and co) ?
[03:52] <baconbits> Has anyone here ever tried to play "Prey"?
[03:52] <Jadder> that name is is thunderbird-2.0.0.4.tar.gz
[03:52] <Jadder> like
[03:52] <kzfr> i play
[03:52] <TakeOut{u}> there is speudo transperancy _gpg_
[03:52] <cables> unagi: you should just delete what you edited, and whatever software made it will remake it.
[03:52] <jlee> well, I found an alsa-info.sh debug script at https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ekiga/+question/7586
[03:52] <shiester_miester> baconbits, yes, finished it
[03:52] <d-b> ..
[03:52] <TakeOut{u}> *pseudo
[03:52] <d-b> _gpg_, what terminal are you using?
[03:52] <unagi> nice
[03:52] <jlee> The output from it is located at http://pastebin.ca/571210 if anyone is willing to help me with this
[03:52] <unagi> smart linux
[03:52] <unagi> lol
[03:52] <baconbits> shiester_miester, did you play it under WINE on ubuntu?
[03:53] <unagi> i dunno....i edited alot when i was trying to get beryl to work
[03:53] <cables> unagi: generally, but it depends. If it's in your home folder, probably.
[03:53] <shiester_miester> no
[03:53] <Markeda> How does one set up an external NTFS drive to be writable on Ubuntu? Checking the permissions tab under properties doesn't let me change the permission.
[03:53] <cables> unagi: not the rest of it though.
[03:53] <_gpg_> d-b i'l use any one able to be transparent, default gnome terminal atm
[03:53] <kzfr> no.... i play  in caffe on windows
[03:53] <shiester_miester> although aparrently prey works quite well in ubuntu
[03:53] <jlee> Markeda: samba
[03:53] <cables> Markeda: Applications>Add/Remove and install the NTFS Configuration Tool
[03:53] <shiester_miester> http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iAppId=3465
[03:53] <new2ubuntuu> I need help. I am installing ubuntu. I am doing partition manually. I have delete a 9 gb be drive for ubuntu. now My problem is how to mount it? I have created 2 gb ext3 drive for root but I can't mount it. I mean to say how to put this "/" on the drive
[03:53] <cables> jlee: no way, that's for network drives.
[03:53] <unagi> i finally got dial up working on my bluetooth phone
[03:53] <unagi> but its slower than windows
[03:53] <unagi> anyone know why?
[03:53] <Bluecircle> Markeda: sudo apt-get install ntfs-config
[03:53] <d-b> d-b, well you can use aterm or rxvt, or eterm
[03:53] <jlee> cables: oh yes, by bad
[03:53] <baconbits> Does anyone know if Prey will run under WINE ok?
[03:54] <unagi> is wine any good?
[03:54] <jlee> cables: can you help me? I am still stuck on this, 6 hours latter
[03:54] <d-b> _gpg_,, well you can use aterm or rxvt, or eterm
[03:54] <Markeda> I did that ntfs config tool, and it came up with the dialog to set it to be writable, but the drive still is not writable.
[03:54] <shiester_miester> baconbits, http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iAppId=3465
[03:54] <baconbits> I don't want to  buy it if it won't work :D
[03:54] <cables> baconbits: http://appdb.winehq.net
[03:54] <Markeda> Does it require a reboot?
[03:54] <shiester_miester> aparrently prey works quite well under wine
[03:54] <cables> baconbits: wine is free
[03:54] <cables> Markeda: no
[03:54] <shiester_miester> unagi, yes wine is very good
[03:54] <Bluecircle> remount it
[03:54] <baconbits> cables, I know, I meant buy Pret
[03:54] <baconbits> prey*
[03:54] <Bluecircle> run sudo ntfs-config
[03:54] <unagi> can wine run windows games?
[03:54] <jlee> anyone good with alsa sound config?
[03:54] <cables> jlee: i need to see your question first :)
[03:54] <Bluecircle> make sure you have the right permossions
[03:54] <shiester_miester> unagi, often it can
[03:54] <cables> unagi: for some programs
[03:54] <shiester_miester> but not always
[03:55] <Markeda> Remount, meaning... Unplug and plug it back in?
[03:55] <adnan_> how do you create a tar file within the directory that you are working in
[03:55] <Bluecircle> no
[03:55] <adnan_> of all the files
[03:55] <shiester_miester> check http://appdb.winehq.org to check if it can run certain applications
[03:55] <jlee> cables: my sound and mic apear to be coming out of the blue jack, I need to get the mic working on the pink jack and sound moved over to the green jack
[03:55] <cables> Bluecircle: no, no need for that
[03:55] <new2ubuntuu>  I need help. I am installing ubuntu. I am doing partition manually. I have delete a 9 gb be drive for ubuntu. now My problem is how to mount it? I have created 2 gb ext3 drive for root but I can't mount it. I mean to say how to put this "/" on the drive
[03:55] <Bluecircle> sudo umount /dev/yourdrive
[03:55] <_gpg_> d-b and then, how should i specify transparency woth aterm ?
[03:55] <Bluecircle> cables: you sure?
[03:55] <unagi> hehe
[03:55] <cables> Bluecircle: yes, very sure
[03:55] <unagi> kiba
[03:55] <d-b> _gpg_, in aterm or rxvt it would be like, $ aterm +tr -sb
[03:55] <unagi> yummy
[03:55] <Bluecircle> ok
[03:55] <adnan_> who can tell me how to tar files
[03:55] <jlee> cables: right now I am listening to xmms on the blue jack, but it is feeding back into the mic unless the mic is muted

[03:55] <d-b> _gpg_, there are a lot of options but I've already forgot since its been a while
[03:55] <adnan_> within a directory of all the files inside of that directory
[03:55] <cables> Markeda: just install NTFS Configuration Tool, keep the drive plugged in, and go to Applications>System Tools>NTFS Configuration Tool
[03:56] <Bluecircle> try "sudo nautilus" then change permissions from root to yourself for read and write
[03:56] <ubuntuserver> yes
[03:56] <cables> Markeda: then when it asks, select enable whatever for the external device
[03:56] <ubuntuserver> how can i restore the backup
[03:56] <maeth> i got this error trying to install anything :S
[03:56] <maeth> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[03:56] <ubuntuserver> i make with tar
[03:56] <cables> Bluecircle: no, it's not a problem with permissions, it's a driver problem.
[03:56] <new2ubuntuu> can someone help me also
[03:56] <new2ubuntuu> ?
[03:56] <Bluecircle> ok
[03:56] <ubuntuserver> tgz

[03:57] <ubuntuserver> hey
[03:57] <_gpg_> d-b not a real transparency
[03:57] <rustalot> Is there a way to _append_ the stdout of a command to a file? I found, to my dismay, that using '>' overwrites the existing data
[03:57] <jlee> darn, it seams no one here knows how to fix it, I've been trying all damn day
[03:57] <new2ubuntuu> Can someone help me out
[03:57] <cables> _gpg_: without beryl or compiz, you can't have real transparency
[03:57] <shiester_miester> adnan, use 7zip, it has a gui
[03:57] <ubuntuserver> Bluecircle:  man.i make backup of ubuntu server and now i want to restore it
[03:57] <cables> rustalot: use >>

[03:57] <adnan> I'll go to winblows if I need the guie shiester_miester
[03:57] <jlee> man there's gotta be a person here that knows about sound configuration
[03:57] <d-b> _gpg_, that I know of.
[03:58] <shiester_miester> new2ubuntuu, several people have already replied to your question, stop asking the same thing over and over
[03:58] <shiester_miester> adnan, what the crap?
[03:58] <jlee> windows rebot, linux be root
[03:58] <_gpg_> d-b ty
[03:58] <new2ubuntuu> when ?
[03:58] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> unagi: Frostwire
[03:58] <new2ubuntuu> I have not seen it
[03:58] <adnan> how do you tar files within a directory
[03:58] <Bluecircle> ubuntuserver: check out this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=35087&highlight=backup
[03:58] <shiester_miester> gui != windows, adnan
[03:58] <ubuntuserver> new2ubuntuu: if nobody help then don't install ubuntu
[03:58] <rob_p> adnan: Do you want just a tar file or a tar gzip file?
[03:58] <adnan> actually both
[03:58] <jlee> adnan: man tar      or "tar -cvzf target.tar.gz target_dir
[03:59] <unagi> joy
[03:59] <adnan> but I was going to come back to that
[03:59] <unagi> frostwire doesnt like ubuntu either
[03:59] <cables> adnan: you can do it with the command line, or you can select them and right click and hit Create Archive.
[03:59] <new2ubuntuu> no Ubuntuserver I will install it
[03:59] <unagi> anyone know why?
[03:59] <shiester_miester> frostwire?
[03:59] <Markeda> All right. Thank you, all.
[03:59] <adnan> isn't it tar -cvf
[03:59] <shiester_miester> whats that
[03:59] <cables> unagi: just install it through Applications>Add/Remove
[03:59] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> unagi: it works fine, should just run without trouble
[03:59] <unagi> i just shows a blank window
[03:59] <Sam234> im allways getting kicked from #suse its well annoying just because im a newbie to linux and I ask easy questions like how do I install the nvidia driver? and how do I install apt and edit my sources.list to include as many packages as the great ubuntu for greater software choice.
[03:59] <adnan> cables, jlee
[03:59] <Bluecircle> ubuntuserver: so it would be tar xvpfz backup.tgz -C / ("backup.tgz" - replace with your file name) ("/" - replace with the dir you want)
[03:59] <pwngasm> new2ubuntu: i opened private chat with u....answer and i will help
[03:59] <jlee> adnan: tar -cvzf will make a gunzip of a tar, thus the extention FILE.tar.gz
[03:59] <adnan> I want to do it within the shell
[04:00] <adnan> ok
[04:00] <adnan> jlee
[04:00] <unagi> i have a feeling it has to do something with java
[04:00] <adnan> how do I select all the files within a folder
[04:00] <shiester_miester> adnan, a lot of the archival programs have command-line options too, like 7zip
[04:00] <unagi> but everytime i try to fix it
[04:00] <adnan> lets say
[04:00] <unagi> i lock up
[04:00] <jlee> adnan: tar -cvzf FILENAME.tar.gz DIRNAME
[04:00] <cables> adnan: open the folder, ctrl-a
[04:00] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> unagi: if you have Beryl going, yeah it doesnt play nice
[04:00] <unagi> aw man
[04:00] <unagi> any reason why?
[04:00] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> beryl + java != friendly
[04:00] <adnan> I am within that folder TESTfolder
[04:00] <wuna66320> 
[04:01] <adnan> and it has a few files
[04:01] <unagi> in that case how do you stop beryl
[04:01] <shiester_miester> you can just change your window manager, unagi
[04:01] <jlee> please someone? it shouldn't take me 2 days to change sound jacks, I just need pointed in the right direction
[04:01] <adnan> I want to tar them all
[04:01] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> unagi: sadly, you have to boot with it turned off.
[04:01] <Bluecircle> ubuntuserver: does that help?
[04:01] <unagi> ouch
[04:01] <unagi> is frostwire even worth that?
[04:01] <cables> unagi: right click on the icon, go to Window Manager, select Metacity
[04:01] <unagi> is there a fix to it
[04:01] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> unagi: it's almost identical to limwire
[04:01] <shiester_miester> oh, you cant just change the window manager, Em3raldMcSquizzy ?
[04:01] <cables> Em3raldMcSquizzy: Wrong
[04:01] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> shiester_miester: nope
[04:01] <shiester_miester> :/
[04:01] <shiester_miester> weird
[04:01] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> cableroy: wrong?
[04:01] <roho> heh, mcsquizzy.
[04:01] <cables> unagi: just right click on the BEryl icon, and go to Window Manager, and hit Metacity
[04:01] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> cables rather

[04:02] <unagi> there we go
[04:02] <Bluecircle> how do i get the userlist to appear in xchat
[04:02] <shiester_miester> yeah thats what i was going to suggest, cables
[04:02] <cables> Em3raldMcSquizzy: really? weird.
[04:02] <unagi> it works when u change it
[04:02] <unagi> thanks cables
[04:02] <cables> unagi: no problem
[04:02] <jlee> bran: I think it is /var/trash
[04:02] <cables> Em3raldMcSquizzy: HA! (jk)

[04:03] <unagi> sorry

[04:06] <vivicrow> hello!!!
[04:06] <cables> CircumVision: isn't the installer offering to do it automatically?
[04:06] <bran> !sex
[04:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sex - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:06] <unagi> nevermind
[04:06] <pwngasm> new2ubuntu: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/installing
[04:06] <unagi> it started working
[04:06] <kitsune> jlee: sorry. I don't know much about sound cards
[04:07] <CircumVision> yes but there's also problems with that
[04:07] <pwngasm> google is your friend =)
[04:07] <cables> !botabuse | bran
[04:07] <ubotu> bran: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[04:07] <jlee> kitsune: yes, I am trying to use ventrilo over .wine but my music plays on blue, though I should move it to green and everyone on ventrllo hears my music instead of my mic
[04:07] <shiester_miester> anybody know of any docks that have simlar functionality to "kiba-dock" (minus useless physics) but dont rape the CPU
[04:07] <vivicrow> well, my Berly  just stopped working without any reason :9
[04:07] <jlee> and pink does nothing
[04:07] <Lapinux> cables: don't have windows on the machine im trying to install on.... im downloading the alternate install cd now though
[04:07] <kzfr> where in gnome is shutdown? in /sbin/poweroff ??
[04:07] <jamman> jlee, what was your poblem... mixed up headphone ports, right?
[04:07] <kitsune> jlee: sorry. can't help ya
[04:07] <cables> jlee: learn the real names for your jacks, not colors :)
[04:07] <jlee> jamman: yes
[04:07] <_gpg_> anyone can help me to install ATI open source drivers please (or redirect me to some link ?) i'm using glrx atm
[04:07] <cables> Lapinux: the alternate CD is a good idea.
[04:07] <CircumVision> like when i allocate a certain amount of space, it says windows doesnt like it
[04:07] <unagi> kiba is buggy lol
[04:07] <jlee> jamman: I got a alsa-info.sh script
[04:07] <jamman> k, do you know how to compile from source.
[04:07] <new2ubuntuu> I know  gooogle is my friend but I am fail to find anything about it as I can't mount the drive
[04:07] <[SMS] Gortok> I can't run the 7.04 installation through my VM (Virtual PC) due to graphical corruption.
[04:07] <shiester_miester> yeah it is
[04:07] <jlee> jamman: that gave me good output
[04:08] <cables> CircumVision: that's weird. I've never run into any problems partitioning.
[04:08] <jamman> jlee, , have you ran it yet?
[04:08] <troy-> anyone familiar with pam_mount/
[04:08] <new2ubuntuu> Redhat  linux is more easy to install then ubuntu
[04:08] <[SMS] Gortok> I have a widescreen monitor, I need to know how I can get Ubuntu to play nice.
[04:08] <jlee> jamman: http://pastebin.ca/571210
[04:08] <jamman> jlee, pastbined?
[04:08] <jamman> oh, good.
[04:08] <jlee> jamman: it does automatically
[04:08] <sivik> !lame
[04:08] <pwngasm> new2ubuntu: ubuntu is all guided.......its not like u have to do anything
[04:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lame - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:08] <Lapinux> cables: i had 6.10 and did the update to 7.04 and it killed my installation, i think it made all my drives go from hdX to sdX
[04:08] <pwngasm> if u really wanna go all out, open up gparted and do it there
[04:08] <sivik> is there a way to use lame to convert multiple files from wav to mp3 at once
[04:08] <cables> Lapinux: it did, that's a weird issue with a driver change they had.
[04:09] <cables> sivik: I don't believe so, you'll probably have to write a script or something.
[04:09] <jlee> jamman: I found the script here, it is a double paste, and the top one doesn't work, but you might want to book mark it for to help others: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ekiga/+question/7586
[04:09] <Lapinux> cables: thats why im trying the 7.04, did they fix it?
[04:09] <pwngasm> what media manager do people use here? amarok? exaile?
[04:09] <Paddy_EIRE> sivik, have you tried sound converter
[04:09] <sivik> Paddy_EIRE, wtf is sound converter
[04:09] <Lapinux> cables: the driver problem that is
[04:09] <jlee> pwngasm: xmms
[04:09] <Paddy_EIRE> sivik, err, a sound converter?
[04:09] <cables> pwngasm: Exaile SVN (repo version sucks
[04:09] <jlee> pwngasm: xmms = winamp for gnome
[04:10] <jamman> jlee, actually, this may be exactly what i need.
[04:10] <sivik> Paddy_EIRE, no joke
[04:10] <cables> Lapinux: it wasn't a problem, but a kernel change.
[04:10] <jlee> jamman: make sure you catch my last post to you
[04:10] <ubuntu> hey how can i restore ubuntu server
[04:10] <jamman> jlee, i did.
[04:10] <cables> Lapinux: i guess it did cause problems with upgrades though. If you from scratch with the CD, you should have no problems.
[04:10] <jamman> so, jlee let me google it.
[04:10] <Trixsey> How do I uninstall a program I compiled myself? (configure, make, make install)?
[04:11] <jlee> jamman: k, now please for all that is good in the world, help me solve this bugger
[04:11] <cables> Trixsey: if you didn't use checkinstall, you can't
[04:11] <ubuntu> Bluecircle: how to restore server.
[04:11] <Lapinux> cables: well thats what im hoping, thats why im trying to install w/ 7.04, and not 6.10 then an upgrade....
[04:11] <bulmer> Trixsey: you created the Makefile yourself?
[04:11] <jamman> jlee, i will try. i will try.
[04:11] <new2ubuntuu> pwngasm: I have selected manuly partition during installation I have deleted 10 gb fat32 drive for ubuntu now my problem is how to mount it ? everytime I create a ext3 drive for Root. Then I right click on it a menu pop up there is option unmount when I click on it. it say "cannot mount the drive" and start rescan whole harddisk
[04:11] <Trixsey> cables, make checkinstall? :P
[04:11] <Paddy_EIRE> Trixsey, unless there is an "uninstall" .sh file in the dir you built it in
[04:11] <cables> Trixsey: no, checkinstall is a replacement for make install
[04:11] <level1> I installed the medibuntu packages and the mp3 packages referred to by ubotu (!mp3) but I still can't get amarok to play mp3s...
[04:11] <bulmer> Trixsey see if the Makefile has a target call uninstall or clean or clear
[04:12] <ubuntu> bah

[04:12] <ubuntu> !ubuntu-server
[04:12] <rich_> hello
[04:12] <ubotu> 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
[04:12] <cables> Trixsey: you do make, then you do sudo checkinstall and it packages it up in a .deb and installs it into APT
[04:12] <Trixsey> cables, ohhh
[04:12] <Trixsey> nice
[04:12] <pwngasm> new2ubuntu: dont do it manually, use the guided install
[04:13] <aSt3raL> how do i close programs in wine?
[04:13] <cables> ubuntu: can you get your own nick rather than using someone else's?
[04:13] <ubuntu> cables tell me how to restore the ubuntu server
[04:13] <cables> ubuntu: how 'bout not, because I don't know.
[04:13] <new2ubuntuu> pwngasm: I am fared  of deleting my other drives as I got lots of data on it
[04:13] <jamman> jlee, have you tried the simple mixer controls in alsamixer?
[04:14] <ubuntu> cables: the irc program get the nick
[04:14] <jlee> Yeah
[04:14] <nept> how can I know if my freenode registration's fine?

[04:14] <cables> ubuntu: you should change it then, use /nick whatever
[04:14] <cables> nept: i'll check for you
[04:14] <ubuntu> Bluecircle: are you here.
[04:14] <jamman> wait, jlee how about the Input Soruce Select?

[04:16] <jlee> jamman: ok, let me do an apt get
[04:16] <shiester_miester> aSt3raL, you can close the desktop
[04:16] <_gpg_> anyone know the command line to install ATI open source driver please ?
[04:16] <pwngasm> new2ubuntu: it doesnt delete them, you choose which drive u want to use, and how much, and then it partitions it accordingly and sets up GRUB
[04:16] <shiester_miester> or you can exit the applications normally as you would in windows
[04:16] <Trixsey> What's the gutsy backports?
[04:16] <aSt3raL> does that close all the programs?
[04:16] <[SMS] Gortok> http://www.sglider.net/ubuntu1.jpg
[04:16] <jamman> jlee, it's already there. just do alsamixer in a terminal.
[04:16] <Paddy_EIRE> how can I make it so that on my next boot the filesystem will be checked/corrected of any errors
[04:16] <shiester_miester> aSt3raL, yes it does
[04:16] <jlee> jlee@spike ~ $ alsamixer
[04:16] <[SMS] Gortok> I need to know why it's doing that, and a way to fix it.
[04:16] <jlee> No mixer elems found
[04:17] <[SMS] Gortok> Has anyone run into that issue?
[04:17] <[SMS] Gortok> If so, how'd you fix it?
[04:17] <ubuntu> someone know how to restore ubuntu server
[04:17] <jlee> jamman: oops, I read that too fast, I thought it said command not found
[04:17] <[SMS] Gortok> (ubuntu not playing nicely with Widescreen monitors)
[04:17] <jamman> jlee, its ok. so you have it open?
[04:17] <jamman> no, i see now. No mixer elems found... jlee, no idea.
[04:18] <TakeOut{u}> [SMS] Gortok dpkp-reconfigure xorg , select the resolution you need for widescreen
[04:18] <Paddy_EIRE> [SMS] Gortok, the link you posted is broke
[04:18] <jamman> google time.
[04:18] <jlee> jamman: alsamixer -h I can give it a device or card, which do I type int?
[04:18] <[SMS] Gortok> http://www.sglider.net/images/ubuntu1.jpg
[04:18] <[SMS] Gortok> I gave three links, only one is broken.

[04:18] <ubuntu> tonyyarusso:
[04:18] <[SMS] Gortok> http://www.sglider.net/images/ubuntu2.jpg
[04:18] <jlee> jamman: GOTIT alsamixer -c 0 (for card 0)
[04:19] <[SMS] Gortok> Takeout:  dpkp-reconfigure xorg from the command line.
[04:19] <jlee> jamman: Ok now what?
[04:19] <jamman> jlee, ok, now we need to figure out the channel to chage.
[04:19] <TakeOut{u}> yeah
[04:19] <palomer> hello
[04:19] <palomer> I've installed mplayer
[04:19] <palomer> how do I install the codecs?
[04:19] <jlee> jamman: ok, just let me know what to type.
[04:19] <ubuntu> hey what was the command to restore ubuntu server
[04:20] <jamman> alrigty, jlee do sudo apt-get install alsa-base alsa-headers alsa-utils
[04:20] <_gpg_> please please, how to install ati open source ones (for ati w300se) on ubuntu
[04:21] <ubuntu> and i how to restore from ubuntu server
[04:21] <unagi> sigh
[04:21] <_gpg_> i mean to use the open source and not propretary one
[04:21] <unagi> see that tutorial doesnt work
[04:21] <unagi> ubuntu doesnt know what deb is
[04:21] <jlee> jamman: Ok, next
[04:21] <jamman> jlee, do the alsamixer again.
[04:21] <jlee> yep did taht
[04:22] <jlee> jamman: Ok,
[04:22] <jamman> no errors jlee?
[04:23] <jlee> jamman: "alsamixer -c 0" no errors
[04:23] <jamman> jlee, just alsamixer
[04:23] <jlee> jamman: Looking at some terminal based gui here
[04:23] <Stoffer> my gnome system monitor is telling me that I'm using 40% (412MB) of my RAM/memory as programs, and 60% as cache.  Now, I have 1GB of RAM installed.  Would I get less performance with only 512MB of ram, or the same amount, since programs are using only around 400MB?
[04:23] <jamman> jlee, nothing else.
[04:23] <jlee> jamman: ok
[04:23] <jamman> ok, perfect jlee
[04:23] <jlee> jamman: No mixer elements found
[04:23] <jamman> jlee, no gui?
[04:24] <jlee> nope
[04:24] <jamman> jlee, try alsaconf
[04:24] <jlee> ok
[04:24] <Stoffer> I just get confused and concerned when my sytem monitor's telling me 100% of my ram is in use, since I assume that linux used less RAM than XP, and I always like to have more than enough
[04:24] <jamman> then do the alsamixer
[04:24] <hackle577> what the heck is up with my GNOME panel? are the taskbar button widths controlled by a random number generator or what?
[04:24] <_gpg_> any one know how to install the open source ATI drivers ? (sory if boring you with this questio) !!
[04:25] <jlee> jamman: command not found, sudo apt-get install alsaconf > Could not find package alsaconf
[04:25] <regeya> Stoffer: if you're not running anywhere close to half capacity most the time, you'll likely notice no performance drop.
[04:25] <regeya> hehe hackle577 I've wondered the same thing about KDE's taskbar :-D
[04:25] <jamman> alsactrl
[04:25] <nept> won't pm's work once I'm registered?
[04:25] <jamman> or not
[04:25] <hackle577> regeya: it seems like this should be fixed by now if it's a bug
[04:26] <Stoffer> regeya, so even though 60% is used as cache, the 40% used by programs is what I should pay attention to?  According to that I'm running at 1/2 capacity?
[04:26] <funkySt> anyone who can help me with my rc.local file ? it keeps logging me out
[04:26] <jamman> well, we can do it your way...
[04:26] <jlee> jamman:  sudo apt-get install alsa-base alsa-headers alsa-utils
[04:26] <jlee> oops sorry
[04:26] <jlee> Couldn't find package alsactrl
[04:26] <jamman> so... jlee, evermind that.
[04:26] <Stoffer> _gpg_ did you search the synaptic package manager for ATI ?
[04:26] <jlee> I could try to search for it in the synaptic package manager
[04:28] <rich123> hello?
[04:28] <jlee> jamman: alsactl not alsactrl
[04:28] <rich123> it is richdurhm
[04:28] <_gpg_> Stoffer yes ..
[04:28] <jlee> found it with bash and the tab key
[04:28] <unagi> i LOVE the linux community
[04:28] <unagi> =)
[04:28] <jamman> jlee, it wont work.
[04:28] <_gpg_> Stoffer atitv !
[04:28] <unagi> dvds work now yay!
[04:28] <jamman> not what i was looking for.
[04:28] <jlee> alsactl > alsactl: Specify command...
[04:29] <funkySt> anyone who can help me with my rc.local file ? it keeps logging me out
[04:30] <Stoffer> _gpg_, are you trying to switch from the proprietary ATI drivers to the open source ones?
[04:30] <_gpg_> Stoffer yes
[04:30] <jlee> jamman: ok, then what now?
[04:30] <Stoffer> _gpg_, running gnome?
[04:30] <_gpg_> sStoffer yes running gnome, i've just done udo apt-get --purge remove xorg-driver-fglrx
[04:30] <unagi> man
[04:30] <unagi> im out of things to fix.....other than my wireless mouse which im terrified to try again
[04:30] <jamman> jlee, try "alsamixer -c 0 -D Exchange Front/Surround'
[04:30] <_gpg_> Stoffer and need to install the open source one
[04:30] <jamman> jlee, wait, my pinkie hit enter on accident.
[04:30] <pwngasm> does anyone have a link to a tutorial or similar on how to install wolfenstein?
[04:31] <jlee> alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for Exchange: No such file or directory
[04:31] <jamman> jlee, try "alsamixer -c 0 -D 'Exchange Front/Surround' 1
[04:31] <jamman> jlee, wasn't quite done.
[04:31] <_gpg_> Stoffer if you have any idea, i'm reading anythings on the net and no usefull things
[04:31] <jlee> jamman: FYI it doesn't play any sound at all through blue without "Spread Front to Surround" checked in the gui
[04:31] <Stoffer> _gpg_, oh, so you don't want the xorg driver... sorry, I misunderstood.  I was gonna say disable the restricted driver and install xserver-xorg-video-ati...
[04:32] <Tiradin> I tried to copy all files on one partition to another for backup using cp -R <source> <destination> and it didn't work. What flags can I put on the drive in FSTAB to be able to create folders/write to the drive?
[04:32] <Stoffer> _gpg_, I considered the xorg driver as open source
[04:32] <jlee> jamman: same error I think "D" is a directory flag
[04:32] <_gpg_> Stoffer ok
[04:32] <Stoffer> _gpg_, sorry about that
[04:33] <_gpg_> Stoffer np
[04:33] <jamman> jlee, really. oh and have you enabled all of the check mark thingies in the gnome gui?
[04:33] <Stoffer> _gpg_,  have you found an open source ATI driver other than xorg?
[04:34] <jlee> jamman: no, just that one
[04:34] <conn> hi, is anyone here using a laptop and noticing bad quality sound, as though the speakers rattle when the sound volume is high? Please let me know if you do, I have a potential solution
[04:34] <jamman> ok, lets try that.
[04:34] <neil_feisty> is ati x550 driver supported in ubuntu
[04:34] <jlee> when I was messing with it, that one made sound come out of the blue one
[04:34] <jlee> jamman: try what?
[04:34] <jamman> double click the sound icon thing in the bar.
[04:34] <jlee> k
[04:34] <neil_feisty> is ati x550 driver supported in ubuntu
[04:34] <jlee> jamman: TABS = Playback | Switches | Options
[04:34] <jamman> jlee, edit -> prefrences
[04:34] <Stoffer> _gpg_, there is an ATI driver other than fglrx though....
[04:34] <jlee> Ok
[04:35] <rob_p> Stoffer: Read this page  -->  http://gentoo-wiki.com/FAQ_Linux_Memory_Management   It should answer some of your concerns regarding Linux memory management.
[04:35] <Tiradin> I tried to copy all files on one partition to another for backup using cp -R <source> <destination> and it didn't work. What flags can I put on the drive in FSTAB to be able to create folders/write to the drive?
[04:35] <Stoffer> rob_p, thanks
[04:35] <rob_p> Stoffer: welcome
[04:35] <jamman> check every one of the boxes.
[04:35] <Stoffer> _gpg_, it's also xorg though
[04:35] <jlee> wowzers ok
[04:35] <_gpg_> Stoffer to be honest dunno, i'm reading french ubuntu wiki they're talking about : proprietary repositury driver + proprietary  ATI driver + open source free driver
[04:35] <giuseppe> hello everyone, I've one question: I've ubuntu and I want to install zenwalk in an other partition of the same harddisk. The problem is that zenwalk use lilo and ubuntu use grub. how can I do? I really prefer to use grub if it's possible. help please?
[04:35] <baconbits> I'm having issues installing beryl and getting it to run...would this be the wrong place to ask for help?
[04:36] <Stoffer> _gpg_, may I ask why you're switching to the open source one?
[04:36] <_gpg_> Stoffer i need something to run beryl
[04:36] <Stoffer> rob_p, ah gentoo... good memories :)
[04:36] <jlee> jamman: btw File - > Change Device has two options, 0-VIA 8235 (alsa Mixer ) and 1-Analog Devices 1980, the 0 one is selected
[04:36] <rob_p> Stoffer: :-)
[04:36] <Stoffer> _gpg_, oh, well then I can solve you're problem :)
[04:36] <jamman> jlee, ok. the change device is right.
[04:37] <Stoffer> _gpg_, I had to go through the same thing getting beryl to work
[04:37] <_gpg_> Stoffer aiglx maybe
[04:37] <jamman> jlee, now you should have about forty different options and such.
[04:37] <Stoffer> _gpg_,  what kind of card to you have?
[04:37] <jlee> jamman: Ok all 50 checkboxes are checked
[04:37] <_gpg_> Stoffer ati x3
[04:37] <rob_p> Stoffer: I actually came from Mandrake, and Red Hat prior to that.  But I have a lot of respect for the Gentoo distro.
[04:37] <_gpg_> Stoffer at1x300se
[04:37] <jlee> jamman: I have a new tabe now, Capture
[04:37] <m3thos> giuseppe: just don't install lilo, and mount the same /boot partition in both installs
[04:38] <Tiradin> I tried to copy all files on one partition to another for backup using cp -R <source> <destination> and it didn't work. What flags can I put on the drive in FSTAB to be able to create folders/write to the drive?
[04:38] <_gpg_> Stoffer i read that the opensource driver is aiglx compatible
[04:38] <Stoffer> rob_p, I started out on Gentoo, but after going back to windows twice because I broke it or didn't have time getting things to work right, I went to ubuntu
[04:38] <rustalot> How do I tell ubuntu to start a shell script in the background on boot?
[04:38] <jamman> jlee, ok. go to the tabs and browse around. or just take a screenshoot of each one and email it to me. borris.morris@gmail.com
[04:38] <giuseppe> m3thos, sorry, I didn't understand very well. Are you telling me to don't install lilo and add the /boot partition of zenwalk to grub?
[04:38] <_gpg_> Stoffer anyway, if you got something to make me able to run beryl it's ok :)
[04:39] <jamman> jlee, you're looking for something that has switch in it.
[04:39] <jlee> jamman: the damn thing has no scroll bar for all the options, I am sure there are more that are't on the screen
[04:39] <ivanhoe> anione had used recosntructor?

[04:39] <jlee> I will have to uncheck some to get the options thing so I can see all of the relative ones
[04:39] <Stoffer> _gpg_, open up the Restricted Drivers manager in gnome (system->Administration->restricted drivers
[04:39] <giuseppe> m3thos, sorry but I'm italian :)
[04:39] <Elliot_M> whats a X server ?
[04:39] <Stoffer> _gpg_, si there an enabled ATI driver in there?
[04:39] <Trixsey> What was the command to compile to .deb? An option to "make install" as far as I got it...
[04:39] <jamman> jlee, that's kind of funny. just make the window bigger and drag it around with alt+click+drag.
[04:40] <m3thos> giuseppe: yes.. or simply use the same /boot for ubuntu and zenwalk, (that is.. make shure zenwalks boot stuff is in that partition and configure grub to also allow booting into zenwalk
[04:40] <jlee> jamman: I Think I see a posibility!
[04:40] <_gpg_> Stoffer there's one
[04:40] <jamman> jlee, what?
[04:40] <m3thos> giuseppe: I got that from the name... I'm portuguese :-p
[04:40] <Stoffer> _gpg_, ok, disable it
[04:40] <giuseppe> m3thos, eheh
[04:40] <jlee> jamman: the first option is surround sound mode, shared or independend, it is on shared, I wonder if that is why the mic and sound are sharing the blue jack?
[04:40] <_gpg_> Stoffer done
[04:40] <Elliot_M> X server ? ne1 know what it is
[04:40] <rob_p> Stoffer: I see.  Being a glutton for punishment, I made a hard and fast switch to Linux for my desktop (and laptop) back in 2000.  Quitting Windows 'cold turkey' was somewhat difficult at first.  No regrets now though!
[04:40] <Stoffer> _gpg_, then go into the synaptic package manager and install the xserver-xorg-video-ati package
[04:40] <giuseppe> m3thos, so..thanks a lot, I'm going to install zenwalk. very kind. have a good evening
[04:40] <jamman> jlee, try it. not too much can go bad.
[04:41] <EnsignRedshirt_> Testing out new IRC client... is this thing on?
[04:41] <jamman> jlee, besides, you can always just switch it back.
[04:41] <pwngasm> does anyone have a good download link for wolfenstein: enemy territory?
[04:41] <GrueTamer> EnsignRedshirt_: i read you loud and clear
[04:41] <jamman> EnsignRedshirt_, yes indeed.
[04:41] <giuseppe> ah m3thos can I ask you another thing first? :P
[04:41] <Tiradin> I tried to copy all files on one partition to another for backup using cp -R <source> <destination> and it didn't work. What flags can I put on the drive in FSTAB to be able to create folders/write to the drive?
[04:41] <_gpg_> Stoffer already isntalled
[04:41] <_gpg_> Stoffer it's here
[04:41] <EnsignRedshirt_> OK
[04:41] <Kanic> hello
[04:41] <jlee> Well it went quite, xmms stoped playing, but lets see if it's comming out of the green one now
[04:42] <vecina> Is medibuntu down? I cant dl ffmpeg, it says it cant connect - 404 not found :/
[04:42] <Stoffer> rob_p, Gentoo was a lot of fun, but I simply don't have the free time anymore to sit and get everything working by manipulating code.  I'm not that good.  That's why I like Ubuntu, it's not windows, and a lot of stuff works "out of the box" like my wireless card :)
[04:42] <jamman> jlee, ok.
[04:42] <Elliot_M> X SERVER!!!!
[04:42] <m3thos> giuseppe: fire away
[04:42] <Stoffer> _gpg_, ok, and you have beryl isntalled?
[04:42] <_gpg_> Stoffer yes it's installed
[04:42] <m3thos> Elliot_M: what about the x server?
[04:42] <Elliot_M> i cnt install 7.04
[04:42] <jlee> jamman: also I have two "input source selects" drop downs and each one say Input1 with the options of input1 or input2
[04:42] <Elliot_M> on my dell inspiron E1505
[04:42] <Stoffer> _gpg_, and up until now it just crashed when you tried switching to it via the beryl-manager?
[04:43] <_gpg_> Stoffer yes
[04:43] <jamman> jlee, well, is it coming out of the green one?
[04:43] <vecina> Failed to fetch http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/repo/pool/feisty/free/amd64/ffmpeg_0.cvs20060823-3.1ubuntu4+medibuntu2_amd64.deb: 404 Not Found [IP: 88.191.13.100 80] 
[04:43] <vecina> What on earth do i do about this
[04:43] <giuseppe> m3thos, I would like to install zenwalk by chroot from ubuntu or virtualbox if it's possible. do you think is better with cd? I don't want problem :P
[04:43] <jamman> vecina, try again.
[04:43] <jlee> dunno, no but I changed some crap in xmms to get it to come out of anything, I am going to go change that back to default
[04:43] <vecina> jamman I did a bunch of times
[04:43] <jamman> jlee, ok.
[04:44] <Stoffer> _gpg_, ok, try restarting X and see what happens.  It's usually just that Restricted ATI driver that's causing the issue.  The xorg one it'll fall back on should work.  Ctrl+Alt+Backspace to restart X
[04:44] <jamman> try, sudo apt-get --fix-missing
[04:44] <jamman> not you jlee
[04:44] <Stoffer> _gpg_, then switch to beryl and hopefully it'll run
[04:44] <rob_p> Stoffer: Agreed.  Unless you thoroughly enjoy optimizing and compiling everything (and have the time to do it), alternatives like Ubuntu are a welcomed solution.  Anyway, I should probably get back on topic...
[04:44] <jamman> but vecina try sudo apt-get --fix-missing
[04:44] <jlee> jamman: my choices are hw:0,0 or hw:0,1, it was on hw:0,1 in the plugin settings in xmms
[04:44] <caleb> hi can anyone help me with getting java to work on my new ubuntu install?
[04:44] <Stoffer> rob_p, you're on topic.... just not the right one for this channel ;)
[04:44] <jamman> try hw:0,0 jlee
[04:45] <rob_p> Stoffer: :-)
[04:45] <jlee> I changed it back to hw:0,0 but nothing :-( I now have speakers hooked to each the green and blue so I can hear if either work
[04:45] <vecina> jamman sudo apt-get --fix-missing just gave me the apt-get help menu
[04:45] <jamman> ok, go back to the mixer and take some screenshots and send them to me jlee. borris.morris@gmail.com
[04:46] <m3thos> giuseppe: Well.. I don't know zenwalk, but when doing something like that.. usually I prefer dooing the install in a chroot.. (so I have a regular linux handy, while doing the other distro installation)
[04:46] <rustalot> If I use apt-build, the programs will run slightly faster because gcc optimizes for my processor architecture, right?
[04:46] <jamman> vecina, i must have screwed up the code. try sudo apt-get install --fix-missing
[04:46] <m3thos> giuseppe: but that depends on zenwalk ability to be installed in a chroot
[04:46] <vecina> jamman Okay, it didnt do anything.
[04:46] <jamman> nothing?
[04:46] <Elliot_M> X server? can anyone tell me what it is
[04:46] <vecina> Jamman not at all :(
[04:47] <jamman> vecina, you are connected to the internet right?
[04:47] <m3thos> Elliot_M: its the "backbone" of linux's graphical system
[04:47] <Elliot_M> and why i cant install &.04 of ubuntu normally
[04:47] <jamman> vecina, i assume so, you are on the irc.
[04:47] <vecina> jamman Well, im here arent i?
[04:47] <jlee> jamman: sending 4 or 5screenshots your way
[04:47] <Kanic> Ok. Im currently using a Belkin USB wireless adapter, when I load up Ubuntu, it brings up the connections, but is not connected, when I go to connect to the Server using the SSID, it shows that the connection is there however when I go to connect it trys for a bit, and then returns to not having any connection, It basically will not connect. has anyone had a simaler problem, or have any idea what I can do to try and make it connect
[04:47] <Elliot_M> oo
[04:47] <braddcadd> IPP request failed with status of 1280 - using default device    (gnome-cups-manager isn;t working for me)
[04:47] <jamman> well, vecina try sudo apt-get update first.
[04:47] <Elliot_M> so why dos it keep giving me an error
[04:47] <jamman> thanks jlee
[04:47] <m3thos> Elliot_M: I guess the X server cannot find a decent graphical driver to start up and load the "desktop environment"
[04:47] <vecina> jamman  That did nothing either :(
[04:48] <Elliot_M> how would i go about fixing that ?
[04:48] <joetheodd> What is ubuntu's root password by default?
[04:48] <giuseppe> m3thos, mhm yes I understand. I think I will install it with cd. the last question, I seen zenwalk is very young so I want to know what do you think about archlinux. I love mine feisty but I'm searching another o.s. lite and quick. any suggest? (I'm not able to use gentoo :D)
[04:48] <geppy> I'm using Gutsy, and an upgrade the other day broke my gstreamer install.  Now whenever I try to use gstreamer, it says it "Could not open resource for writing".  This isn't an issue of selecting the wrong sink, I'm not only using the same configuration I've always used, but I've tried other ones.
[04:48] <jamman> no output vecina ?
[04:48] <vecina> jamman Oh wait, i did upgrade... nm
[04:49] <attickid> ey
[04:49] <attickid> I got a question
[04:49] <attickid> about
[04:49] <attickid> x64 and x86
[04:49] <geppy> attickid: Then ask it.
[04:49] <caleb> hi can anyone help me with getting java to work on my new ubuntu install?
[04:49] <TaJMoX> attickid : x64 is for 64 bit processors only - x86 is for normal PC's
[04:49] <attickid> I got and amd 64 x-2 pc and I isntalled ubuntu
[04:49] <vecina> jamman HOLY HEAVEN i needed to upgrade
[04:49] <shiester_miester> caleb, are you using beryl?
[04:49] <m3thos> giuseppe: Its okay to search for alternatives, I've never used those, I've tried debian, redhat, fedora, gentoo, ubuntu only...
[04:49] <attickid> for x86
[04:49] <jlee> jamman: sent
[04:49] <caleb> beryl?
[04:50] <shiester_miester> ok then i guess you arent
[04:50] <jamman> vecina, ok, do that and then try the other thing you were doing.
[04:50] <attickid> do I have any performance delay..should I install x64?
[04:50] <caleb> firefox
[04:50] <shiester_miester> if you dont know what it is then you probably arent running it :P
[04:50] <jamman> jlee, perfecto.
[04:50] <m3thos> giuseppe: but the "lightness" doesn't depend much on the distro, it just depends on your graphical environment setup... you can configure and strip down ubuntu (or any other for that matter) to become lighter
[04:50] <vecina> jamman Wow... this may take a while
[04:50] <Stoffer> caleb, firefox is telling you you gotta manually installed java?
[04:50] <vecina> jamman 88 megs to install
[04:50] <braddcadd> ** (gnome-printer-view:8848): WARNING **: IPP request failed with status 1280 - using device default   (any ideas?)
[04:50] <joetheodd> attickid: When you're using x86 software on x64, I believe theres considerable slowdown when instructions are translated.
[04:50] <geppy> attickid: No.
[04:50] <jamman> vecina, wow!
[04:50] <Perdente> caleb: go to the synaptic package manager
[04:50] <braddcadd> gnome-cups-manager isn't working
[04:50] <_gpg_> doesnt work
[04:51] <m3thos> giuseppe: try a different window manager, instead of gnome or kde, look at xfce, fluxbox, openbox, and others
[04:51] <vecina> jamman Maybe this has something to dow ith the bazillion problems ive had
[04:51] <giuseppe> m3thos, yes I know but I can use also kde with my hardware. I was searching for a prove
[04:51] <joetheodd> geppy: Oh, is that just Windows or something?
[04:51] <attickid> joetheodd: do I should change to x64?
[04:51] <_gpg_> please any one know how to install aiglx ATI drivers please ??
[04:51] <Stoffer> _gpg_, damn... that usually fixes it...  it still crashes when you try starting it?
[04:51] <geppy> joetheodd: Instructions aren't translated, x86-64 processors have a 32-bit mode.
[04:51] <jamman> vecina, not likely.
[04:51] <attickid> geppy: do I showuld change to x64?
[04:51] <joetheodd> attickid: I would.
[04:51] <vecina> Stoffer  download envy
[04:51] <_gpg_> Stoffer y
[04:51] <m3thos> giuseppe: those things don't depend of hardware..
[04:51] <shiester_miester> _gpg_, AIGLX is software based
[04:51] <shiester_miester> i dont think you need drivers for it
[04:51] <Elliot_M> ???
[04:51] <geppy> attickid: Stay on x86-32.
[04:51] <m3thos> giuseppe: if X server runs, any window manager will run on top of it
[04:51] <joetheodd> geppy: Oh. I didn't know that. Was that for running 32bit applications on a x64 OS, then?
[04:51] <caleb> when i test the java maching at suns site i get the download plugin
[04:52] <caleb> auto install didn't work
[04:52] <Stoffer> vecina, ?
[04:52] <_gpg_> shiester_miester ati has 3 drivers, just one is aigkx compatible
[04:52] <Samad> hello all
[04:52] <shiester_miester> oh ok
[04:52] <attickid> geppy:is there any reason, could you plz explain it to me?
[04:52] <_gpg_> shiester_miester wich one ? and jhow to install it please ? i'm trying for like 5 hours
[04:52] <jamman> jlee, the reason that you couldn't record or your mike port wasn't working is 1. your capture is turned off. *capture tab*
[04:52] <shiester_miester> _gpg_, im not sure
[04:52] <vecina> Stoffer  I forgot where to get it, but Envy automatically installs drivers for nvidia AND ATI
[04:52] <shiester_miester> what format are they in?
[04:52] <geppy> joetheodd: No, even running 32-bit processes on a 64-bit operating system involves the system making a context switch to 32-bit and using 32-bit libraries, etc.  There isn't a translation, however, there _is_ probably a slowdown.
[04:52] <Samad> could anyone answer a simple beryl + feisty + ati question?
[04:52] <giuseppe> m3thos, no? I have an amd64 3600+ 1gb ram and a new nvidia card. I can use gnome kde without any problem I want only do some prove, I found it funny :)
[04:52] <jlee> jamman: I've flipped that setting so many times
[04:52] <joetheodd> attickid: I was wrong, and AMD64 distro isn't as much supported. You're probably better off on IA32.
[04:52] <m3thos> giuseppe: well.. the only exception is compiz/beryl because of their requirement of some special video driver features
[04:52] <Stoffer> vecina, oh ok, wasn't sure what you were talking about :P
[04:53] <joetheodd> geppy: Ah, okay.
[04:53] <_gpg_> shiester_miester how to know ?  dunno
[04:53] <giuseppe> m3thos, I hate them :P
[04:53] <jlee> jamman: I am pretty darn sure that I had sound and mic going to blue, and green adn pink doing nothing
[04:53] <caleb> im surprised that java isn't auto installed on firefox
[04:53] <shiester_miester> Samad, dont ask to ask a question...just ask the question
[04:53] <vecina> I am on a 64 bit and i HATE it. Ubuntu just doesnt put much energy in mkaing the 64 bit compatible
[04:53] <geppy> attickid: Yeah, if you have to ask, you're better off with 32-bit.  Not saying you aren't good with computers, but I am saying Ubuntu isn't good with 64-bit and that it's it's not worth the trouble.
[04:53] <vecina> :(
[04:53] <_gpg_> is there a way to see this chanel archine ?
[04:53] <jamman> ok, well jlee try the IEC958 Playback source in options.
[04:53] <geppy> vecina: Hear, hear.
[04:53] <zerial> al
[04:53] <caleb> wow busy channel
[04:53] <Samad> could anyone point me in the direction of a tutorial that will walk me through getting beryl to work with my ATI X600?
[04:53] <shiester_miester> i agree with geppy, 64bit is not very good atm
[04:53] <_gpg_> i mean is there a way to see everything said on this chanel the last day ?
[04:53] <jamman> jlee, also the CHANNEL MODE!! i think we found it.
[04:53] <shiester_miester> _gpg_, nope
[04:54] <_orian> Could someone direct me to a web site that explains how to connect two computers running ubuntu via a wireless router. I also use this router to connect to my modem
[04:54] <Perdente> caleb: I sent you a private chat
[04:54] <geppy> Samad: Yes, it is called "ebay" and you can use it to exchange your ATI for an nvidia card.
[04:54] <bullgard4> Is it possible to insert in Nautilus at a given location in the file tree a link to an Internet address such that when clicking on it Epiphany will open the web page?
[04:54] <Stoffer> caleb, yeah, it's a pain.  When you go to a site that uses java, firefox prompts you to install plugin, but then when it doesn't work, it gives you a link "Manual Install"
[04:54] <giuseppe> m3thos, anyway, thanks a lot :)
[04:54] <caleb> sorry i didnt see
[04:54] <m3thos> giuseppe: best thing for you is to try out what you feel like.. you will learn new things..and maybe find some other distro or window manager that you preffer
[04:54] <jlee> jamman: hehe I can't get any sound from anywhere now,
[04:54] <jlee> I don't remember what was changed
[04:54] <giuseppe> m3thos, ;)
[04:54] <Samad> geppy: I will do that soon, but for the time being...is there anyway?
[04:54] <_gpg_> shiester_miester last night some one explained me how to do it and it works fine untill i got crash
[04:54] <shiester_miester> geppy, dont give useless advice :P ati isntso bad
[04:54] <_gpg_> and lost some files
[04:54] <geppy> shiester_miester: hah, ATI is great, but their Linux drivers are shiet
[04:54] <shiester_miester> so are nvidias
[04:54] <vecina> When i turn my computer on, its SO BAD that I have to boot into safe mode and sudo aptitude reinstall pal hal dbus
[04:55] <vecina> EVERY time i log in
[04:55] <shiester_miester> everyones linux drivers are shit, apparently
[04:55] <jamman> jlee the IEC958 Playback source in options.
[04:55] <Stoffer> Perdente, trying to get java to work in firefox by installing it via the synaptic package manager isn't the solution, it that's where you're headed
[04:55] <attickid> geppy: Indeed Im new to linux..hehe..which distro/os do u recommend me to take advantage of my hardware.I just do java programming and testing stuff anything that I found cool
[04:55] <geppy> Samad: I don't know, but I would try googling for it.  I know there _are_ guides, but I don't have an ATI.
[04:55] <giuseppe> m3thos, I tried debian but I prefer ubuntu, zenwalk look nice but don't know
[04:55] <jamman> jlee, also the channel mode.
[04:55] <jlee> jamman: lets just go back over all the settings
[04:55] <KEEEV> Ubuntu server it doesnt come with X installed?
[04:55] <geppy> attickid: Ubuntu is the best, in my opinion.
[04:55] <jamman> change the first back but keep the second changed.
[04:55] <attickid> geppy: thanks=)
[04:55] <Samad> i've tried several times, digging through the forum and many other walkthroughs
[04:55] <geppy> attickid: Trying to use x86-64 with _any_ distro is going to be a pain.  Ubuntu is probably the _least_ painful, which says a lot.
[04:55] <vecina> there;s not telling why dbus pal and hal are getting borked
[04:55] <CaptainMorgan> !unixdocs2
[04:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about unixdocs2 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:55] <Samad> all of them just screw up my X and I have to re-install
[04:55] <CaptainMorgan> !unixdoc2
[04:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about unixdoc2 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:56] <EnsignRedshirt_> I'm installing 7.04 on a computer with two hard drives, and I'm using manual partitioning.  What happens if none of the partitions are flagged as boot partitions?  Will the installer make / a boot partition automatically?
[04:56] <CaptainMorgan> !unix2docs
[04:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about unix2docs - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:56] <CaptainMorgan> !unix2doc
[04:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about unix2doc - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:56] <vecina> dtop
[04:56] <_gpg_> god i really need help !
[04:56] <giuseppe> m3thos, well I'm going. another time thanks and have a good linux :P
[04:56] <giuseppe> bye to all guys
[04:56] <CaptainMorgan> dammit.. whats the command to get rid of the \r\n's ?
[04:56] <Stoffer> _gpg_, have you tried #beryl?
[04:56] <level1> Hi, a wine program needs to access a second cd but ubuntu won't let me eject the cd... can I force eject it?
[04:56] <level1> like, is there a command line that forces the cd to eject?
[04:56] <jamman> level1, i remember you...
[04:57] <EnsignRedshirt_> level1: Try 'eject'
[04:57] <jamman> level1, counter strike... right?
[04:57] <level1> jamman: there must be someone else named level 1
[04:57] <Perdente> caleb: you still there?
[04:57] <jamman> level1, must be. same symptoms tho.
[04:57] <jamman> jlee, you there?
[04:57] <Stoffer> level1, eject /dev/yourCDdrive
[04:57] <CaptainMorgan> whats the command to get rid of the \r\n's ? from a  Win machine? unixdoc2 to that effect?
[04:57] <jlee> yes
[04:57] <vecina> jamman 13% updating lol
[04:58] <caleb> sorry i was in pm Perdente
[04:58] <jlee> jamman: ok, can we just start at the top and work our way through the tabs
[04:58] <Perdente> oh ok, well anyway
[04:58] <level1> Stoffer: EnsignRedshirt_ eject alone won't do it... I need to *force* ubuntu to do it
[04:58] <jamman> jlee, did you change the IEC958 back to AC-Link and what are the options for channel mode?
[04:58] <vecina> try a knife
[04:58] <Zack> Hello, I was wondering if someone could help me install a Binary downloaded file, I have been to the Ubuntu site but what it tells me does NOT work.
[04:58] <jamman> all in the options tab.
[04:59] <Pelo> CaptainMorgan, maybe if you rephrase your question someone will know what you are talking about
[04:59] <jlee> Yes and 2 channel
[04:59] <Perdente> caleb: that's wierd I didn't see your response, well anyway, go to system, administration, synaptic package manager
[04:59] <caleb> ok
[04:59] <EnsignRedshirt_> CaptainMorgan: Do you mean you have a text file from a Windows machine that uses \r\n at the end of each line?
[04:59] <level1> can I remount it on the fly?
[05:00] <CaptainMorgan> Pelo, transferring a file from a win machine to ubuntu, vice versa, and opening a plain text/html whatever... gives it an unngodly amount of spacing vertically
[05:00] <Zack> I was wondering if someone could help me install a Binary downloaded file, I have been to the Ubuntu site but what it tells me does NOT work.
[05:00] <jamman> level1, probably.
[05:00] <Zack> ?
[05:00] <Pelo> CaptainMorgan, ok I get what you want but I have no idea
[05:00] <jamman> sorry Zack. i dont do beryl.
[05:00] <Zack> its not beryl
[05:00] <CaptainMorgan> Pelo, EnsignRedshirt_ either win or linux puts \n\r on the end of each line.. I forget.. but there is a command line utitility(standard) that removes them the document
[05:01] <m3thos> \n\r is windows
[05:01] <Zack> Jamman, its not beryl
[05:01] <m3thos> \n is any kind of unix (linux inclusive)
[05:01] <jamman> Zack, i read beryl instead of binary.
[05:01] <CaptainMorgan> like say, unixdoc2 foodocument.html
[05:01] <jlee> jamman: options, Souround jack mode> independent, Mic Select Mic1, IEC958 Playback Source AC-Link Channel Mode 2ch, Downmix Off, Input Source select Input1 (twice)
[05:01] <caleb> Perdente can you read this?
[05:01] <EnsignRedshirt_> CaptainMorgan: Yeah, I know what you mean, and I know there is such a command.  Unfortunately I'm on a Mac right now, so I can't do my usual poking around to find it.
[05:01] <Zack> ok, Im trying to install Google Earth and when i download it, it downloads to desktop and when i go to terminal to install... it doesnt work
[05:02] <Perdente> yeah, but nothing in the pm
[05:02] <jamman> try changin Channel mode to Downmix Off.
[05:02] <Zack> i also downloaded from Medibuntu it was no good
[05:02] <Pelo> CaptainMorgan, search the forum for "removing /r/n"
[05:02] <jamman> sorry jlee. i gtg. i could probly help tomarrow. just keep messing with all of the options.
[05:02] <jlee> That's not an option
[05:02] <jlee> Ok
[05:02] <Modred> CaptainMorgan: try using Perl: perl -p -i -e 's/\r//' file
[05:02] <Perdente> caleb: did you accept the dcc chat offer
[05:02] <Perdente> ?
[05:03] <jamman> if you get it working plz tell me tho.
[05:03] <Zack> hum...
[05:03] <jamman> my user name on ubuntuforums.org is borris.morris
[05:03] <Zack> Binary install? on Terminal??
[05:03] <EnsignRedshirt_> Quick survey: how much space is used by the files in /boot?
[05:03] <Perdente> caleb: type in /dcc-accept
[05:04] <caleb> ok
[05:04] <caleb> i did
[05:04] <Zack> as soon as someone has a chance
[05:04] <Stoffer> caleb, http://www.java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp?locale=en&host=www.java.com download the Linux (self extracting) and follow the instructions next to it
[05:04] <Polygon89> Does anyone know how i can batch compress .zip files? im not getting much luck with the zip man page.
[05:04] <m3thos> EnsignRedshirt_: 80mb will do, it depends on the livetime of your install
[05:05] <Perdente> caleb: ok we should be able to talk in the pm now
[05:05] <biggahed> hello there. I didnt search anything about it, but it seems to me that 7.04 Xorg has some bizarre mem leak. Ive had it eat like 200mb. Does anyone has the same problem?
[05:05] <caleb> ive done that many times
[05:05] <m3thos> EnsignRedshirt_: 2 years of kernel upgrades will start to fill your /boot
[05:05] <dshumate> anyone know ho to take and email off of spam?  Emails from my kid keep going into spam, I can see how to mark and email as spam but not how to mark it as not spam.  Using evolution and and Imap server
[05:05] <Perdente> lol sorry then i'll figure it out on my own time
[05:05] <caleb> I installed the package from synaptics
[05:05] <Zack> Binary? is my question
[05:05] <Perdente> anyway, what java bugs
[05:05] <Perdente> ok
[05:05] <Perdente> which ones?
[05:06] <caleb> bugs?
[05:06] <Perdente> nm
[05:06] <Perdente> typo
[05:06] <EnsignRedshirt_> m3thos: Thanks... the computer on which I am currently installing Ubuntu has a 100Meg partition that was previously used as /boot.
[05:06] <Perdente> so you have the javacc and such packages
[05:06] <caleb> um i installed the jre packages
[05:06] <Perdente> do you have java-gcj-compact-plugin, installed?
[05:06] <caleb> no
[05:07] <CaptainMorgan> apparently 'unix2dos' does it but the package wasn't found using apt-get
[05:07] <Perdente> *compat
[05:07] <Pelo> dshumate, try under  dysplay filters
[05:07] <Zack> Binary install, if anyone knows anything about that?..
[05:07] <Jadder> How i reverse this comand? apt-get install nvidia-glx
[05:07] <Perdente> i mean java-gcj-compat-plugin
[05:07] <caleb> i have it marked now
[05:08] <EnsignRedshirt_> Gah! Error 15: File not found    <--- Error when I tried to boot my new installation.  I guess I have to flag one of the partitions as a boot partition?
[05:08] <caleb> anything else?
[05:08] <GrueTamer> EnsignRedshirt_: whats your hd setup?
[05:08] <Perdente> well try it, it should work if not
[05:08] <caleb> kewl
[05:08] <Perdente> it worked?
[05:08] <Jadder> how I reverse this comand,? apt-get install nvidia-glx
[05:08] <GrueTamer> actually
[05:09] <GrueTamer> EnsignRedshirt_: put your menu.lst file on pastebin and give me the link
[05:09] <yanni_> I have a wireless issue with a Belkin wireless G card please help!!!!!!!!
[05:09] <caleb> do i need to reboot?
[05:09] <yanni_> the system won't recognize it
[05:09] <Perdente> you shouldn't
[05:09] <caleb> k
[05:10] <GrueTamer> Jadder: sudo apt-get purge nvidia-glx
[05:10] <Perdente> oh wait
[05:10] <Perdente> also this
[05:10] <GrueTamer> er, rather, thats wrong
[05:10] <Jadder> let me try
[05:10] <GrueTamer> sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia-glx, i think
[05:10] <Perdente> sun-java6-plugin
[05:10] <Perdente> mostly that one actually
[05:10] <GrueTamer> im unsure about how the purge works
[05:10] <caleb> all i get at the java test page is a little red x
[05:10] <EnsignRedshirt_> GrueTamer: Two hard drives.  The first has two partitions.  I will put / on its first partition.  The second already has my /home directory, so it will not be reformatted.  The second drive has three partitions: 100Meg (make this /boot?), 15Gig (has existing data--it will be mounted as /srv), and a swap partition.
[05:10] <Perdente> here don't leave that page
[05:10] <caleb> k
[05:11] <Perdente> install the sun-java6-plugin
[05:11] <Zack> :)
[05:11] <GrueTamer> EnsignRedshirt_: paste the menu.lst file on pastebin, give me the link
[05:11] <Perdente> and apply it and refresh the page
[05:11] <GrueTamer> im usually pretty good at fixing grub
[05:11] <EnsignRedshirt_> GrueTamer: I can't boot, so how can I get menu.lst?
[05:11] <caleb> im sorry i didn't see that about the sun plugin
[05:11] <EnsignRedshirt_> GrueTamer: Wait, I'll boot up the LiveCD again.
[05:11] <caleb> is that in syanaptic
[05:11] <caleb> k
[05:11] <Perdente> yeah
[05:11] <caleb> ty
[05:12] <Jadder> GrueTamer; Invalid Purge
[05:12] <Perdente> np, I think that'll fix it
[05:12] <Perdente> sorry for all the confusion, ironically i'm a little rusty at irc haha
[05:12] <GrueTamer> Jadder: take out the purge
[05:12] <GrueTamer> just do regular remove
[05:12] <GrueTamer> sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx
[05:12] <yanni_> I guess no help on this wireless card issue
[05:13] <Jadder> Thanks
[05:13] <Jadder> that works
[05:13] <caleb> still just seeing the little x
[05:13] <Perdente> still
[05:13] <Jadder> and then How I get my old drivers?
[05:13] <Jadder> ubuntu come driver?
[05:13] <linaxe> help
[05:13] <yanni_> help
[05:13] <GrueTamer> Jadder: you should be alright after that, otherwise, then you need to do a little bit of tweaking in your xorg.conf file, im bettin
[05:13] <Perdente> what page did you say you are on again?
[05:13] <GrueTamer> !ask
[05:13] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:14] <Zack> hello??
[05:14] <caleb> http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml
[05:14] <Lekrem> hello
[05:14] <Zack> binary install??
[05:14] <linaxe> Is there anyone who can help me with a problem with my Avant window manager???
[05:14] <Jadder> ok, I suppose I need reeboot my machice
[05:14] <yanni_> how can I get ubuntu to recognize my Belkin wireless G card
[05:14] <vlotty> hey all... I'm pretty new to ubuntu and linux in general.  if I have something like an external zip drive hooked up via scsi, is it supposed to automount when I insert media?
[05:15] <GrueTamer> vlotty: depends on how youve got your distro/kernel set up
[05:15] <caleb> ive tweaked so many things think i may have to  reinstall ubuntu?
[05:15] <linaxe> AWN????
[05:15] <Perdente> no, lol it shouldn't be that
[05:15] <Zack> Google earth binary install??
[05:15] <Perdente> but here, for lack of a better knowledge, i'll list the java packages i have and you can compare
[05:15] <GrueTamer> Zack: the easiest way to get google earth is automatix, but it might not be the best way
[05:16] <GrueTamer> !automatix
[05:16] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[05:16] <vlotty> GrueTamer: what do you mean by that?  I did a standard install off the 7.04 iso
[05:16] <GrueTamer> vlotty: i think ubuntu, by default, automounts devices, but not all distros do by default
[05:16] <Lekrem> Zack, whats your problem?
[05:16] <Fezzler> Is it worth upgrading from blender 2.43 to 2.44?
[05:16] <Perdente> well actually that list is a little long, lets just do a check run-through
[05:16] <Zack> I am trying to install google earth and it will not let me
[05:16] <linaxe> @GrueTamer avant window manager is a desktop dock panel. It is a bottom bar in which can behave like MAC OS X
[05:17] <cast> greetings.
[05:17] <vlotty> GrueTamer: I see... if it's not doing that, how would I access the device manually?
[05:17] <Zack> ok first i went to the website and downloaded the linux version
[05:17] <Zack> it is in .BIN form
[05:17] <linaxe> You see I am unable to add icons to AWN ever since it was updated
[05:17] <GrueTamer> vlotty: do you know the drive syntax for the drive?
[05:17] <Perdente> do you have: sun-java6-bin
[05:17] <Zack> i am trying to install it through terminal but it just is not working out
[05:17] <GrueTamer> like, /dev/sdb or whatever
[05:17] <Perdente> sun-java6-plugin
[05:17] <Perdente> sun-java6-jre
[05:17] <Perdente> installed?
[05:17] <Modred> Zack: what are you typing? and what is it doing when you do whatever you're doing?
[05:17] <c9s> exit
[05:17] <vlotty> GrueTamer: it's actually a SCSI II SyJet attached externally via a BusLogic SCSI adapter, and I see the SCSI adapter in the hardware information panel
[05:18] <GrueTamer> uh...alright
[05:18] <vlotty> GrueTamer: I did fdisk -l but I didn't see anything there to indicate it recognized my drive
[05:18] <GrueTamer> check the /etc/fstab file
[05:18] <unagi> anyone have problems with hibernation not working?
[05:18] <vecina> Whoo it worked!
[05:18] <bullgard4> modinfo vesafb does not print a description. How can I obtain a description of the function of vesafb?
[05:18] <caleb> sorry Perdente lemme look
[05:18] <vlotty> GrueTamer: ok-- thanks, let me check that now
[05:19] <Perdente> no that's cool, also add to the list:
[05:19] <Perdente> javacc
[05:19] <GrueTamer> bullgard4: try something like 'modinfo vesafb > vesafb.txt'
[05:19] <EnsignRedshirt_> GrueTamer: Where is menu.lst?
[05:19] <Perdente> java-common
[05:19] <Perdente> gcjwebplugin-4.1
[05:19] <GrueTamer> EnsignRedshirt_: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[05:19] <firebird619> Could someone help me with X failing to start. X continually fails and when I run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and restart,  it still fails, but when I delete xorg.conf completely, Ubuntu starts and works fine, but don't I need an xorg.conf file?
[05:19] <Zack> i am typing chmod +x GoogleEarthLinux.bin
[05:19] <GrueTamer> make sure youre lookin on the installed partition/s menu file, not the livecd's
[05:19] <caleb> sun-java6-plugin
[05:19] <caleb>  sun-java6-jre
[05:19] <caleb>  installed? yes installed
[05:20] <Zack> Modred : "chmod +x GoogleEarthLinux.bin"
[05:20] <Zack> is it
[05:20] <GrueTamer> firebird619: no, you dont need an xorg file, but i believe without one, you get a generic xorg session
[05:20] <Modred> Zack: Google Help says to use the following command "> sh GoogleEarthLinux.bin"
[05:20] <patrlck> hi penguins
[05:23] <Lekrem> Zack have you tried dble clicking it, or do you have to be in terminal?
[05:23] <Modred> you could try "./GoogleEarthLinux.bin"
[05:23] <caleb> didn't mean to keep you waiting Perdente
[05:23] <caleb> you still here?
[05:23] <Zack> i double click and gedit opens and says it cant read the file
[05:23] <Cplunsford> hey whats the wine channels name n e one know?
[05:23] <Ademan> #winehq
[05:23] <Cplunsford> thanks
[05:23] <Ademan> no problem
[05:23] <Modred> Zack: it sounds the same as installing Flash for linux.  You have to run the file.  Now that you've made it executable, in the terminal, type "./GoogleEarthLinux.bin" and it should start the install stuff
[05:23] <firebird619> GrueTamer: What can I do to fix this issue. The problem started when I switched the HDD I have ubuntu on to a PC with an NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 (Dell). Is there something I have to install to get it to work?
[05:23] <lo4fer> how do I set permissions for an external hard drive so that I can write to it. Either GNOME or CLI, though I'd love to know both.
[05:23] <caleb> Perdente?
[05:23] <Perdente> yeah, I was just copy the other list:
[05:23] <Perdente> sun-java6-bin
[05:23] <caleb> k lemme look
[05:23] <Perdente> >	no that's cool, also add to the list:
[05:23] <Perdente> javacc
[05:23] <Perdente> java-common
[05:23] <GrueTamer> firebird619: you probably have to juts configure the xorg file correctly
[05:23] <Perdente> gcjwebplugin-4.1
[05:23] <linaxe> I am not able to add icons to AWN
[05:23] <Zack> but it says that the file cannot be found and it is on my desktop and in my home folder
[05:23] <GrueTamer> lo4fer: type in 'man chown' for information regarding the chown command, which you would use to do your file permissions in the terminal
[05:23] <Lekrem> Zack: cd /home/(ur username)/Desktop
[05:23] <Lekrem> then try
[05:23] <Modred> what he said
[05:23] <lo4fer> thanks gruetamer
[05:23] <Bluecircle> hey
[05:23] <firebird619> GrueTamer: Any suggestions on what needs to be adjusted, and what it needs to be adjusted to?
[05:23] <Bluecircle> big favor
[05:23] <GrueTamer> in gnome, start nautilus with root privs, then go to the drive's root folder, right click, properties, edit permissions, something like that
[05:23] <bullgard4> GrueTamer: You are not well-informed: Your suggestion yields the same output as modinfo vesafb. vesafb simply does not contain any text statement about its function. (But other kernel drivers do.)
[05:23] <patrlck> is there a smaller channel for help? :/
[05:23] <GrueTamer> bullgard4: i just guessed :P
[05:23] <bullgard4> GrueTamer: yes.
[05:23] <Bluecircle> does anyone know how to stop files in nautilus from jumping around when selected? Eg: if i select a .php file it jumps up and changes to an html file as type because there's html in it
[05:24] <Bluecircle> obviously this only happens when i sort by type
[05:24] <Zack> Lekram:  cd /home/Zack/Desktop/GoogleEarthLinux.bin
[05:24] <Zack> bash: cd: /home/Zack/Desktop/GoogleEarthLinux.bin: No such file or directory
[05:24] <Lekrem> firebird619: System --> Administration --> Restricted drivers manager
[05:24] <GrueTamer> Zack: cd changes directory, you dont want to change directories to a file
[05:24] <caleb> ok 2 were not installed
[05:24] <Zack> ok ok
[05:24] <Perdente> man I hope that fixes it :)
[05:25] <Lekrem> Zack: dont inculde the file name at the end
[05:25] <caleb> :)
[05:25] <Zack> ok
[05:25] <caleb> its all good
[05:25] <Perdente> really?
[05:25] <GrueTamer> or, if youre in your home folder already, just do 'cd Desktop'
[05:25] <Perdente> phwe
[05:25] <Lekrem> Zack and use the user name that u use to log in to the computer
[05:25] <Perdente> lol well have fun
[05:25] <cast> Zack: cd /home/Zack/Desktop/ && chmod +x GoogleEarthLinux.bin && ./GoogleEarthLinux.bin
[05:25] <firebird619> Lekrem: I went into that and it says the NVIDIA  accelerated graphics driver is enabled but is not in use. How do I resolve that so it is in use
[05:26] <Lekrem> click the checkbox
[05:26] <caleb> um no it didn't fix it
[05:26] <Perdente> auwghhh
[05:26] <caleb> i just meant that no matter what happens its all good
[05:26] <Perdente> haha I see
[05:26] <firebird619> Lekrem: When I do that, it says Reconfiguring X.org video drivers is not possible: /etc/X11/xorg.conf is invalid or does not exist.
[05:26] <caleb> no sense letting it ruin your day
[05:26] <Perdente> well alright, one last attempt?
[05:26] <p1ls> anyone suggest good ftp manager?
[05:26] <caleb> sure
[05:26] <GrueTamer> firebird619: it has to exist to enable the drivers
[05:26] <Bluecircle> gftp?
[05:26] <Lekrem> firebird619 uh-oh
[05:26] <Perdente> ok, you can see my messages right?
[05:26] <p1ls> naw..
[05:26] <Lekrem> firebird619 that doesnt sound good
[05:26] <caleb> yes
[05:26] <Perdente> my pm's I mean
[05:27] <caleb> um
[05:27] <GrueTamer> firebird619: as i recall, you had no xorg.conf file because you deleted it
[05:27] <Zack> Even when i just type in the directory without the filename it says that the folder cannot be found
[05:27] <caleb> no
[05:27] <p1ls> zack, how you type it.
[05:27] <Lapinux> has ubuntu defaulted to call all disk sd now, even ata drives?
[05:27] <GrueTamer> Zack: start a terminal and type 'cd Desktop'
[05:27] <firebird619> GrueTamer: Correct, because when I do have the xorg.conf file, X fails every time, but when I delete it, Ubuntu starts and works.
[05:27] <bruenig> Lapinux, that is a kernel change and the answer is no
[05:27] <Perdente> no, ok I'll post it here, ok I'll list all the java pacs I have and you can copy and compare, then log out and log back in and try and this really should work since it si the only thing that affects the java plugin
[05:27] <GrueTamer> firebird619: yes, but the drivers wont work without the file
[05:27] <Bluecircle> Lapinux: as far as i know yes
[05:28] <cast> Zack: use tab complete.
[05:28] <bruenig> Lapinux, more drives are now classified sd than before but there are still some that are hd
[05:28] <caleb> ok ok
[05:28] <Perdente> but it might take a minute or two so one sec
[05:28] <Lekrem> Zack: look in /home and find ur username, then type it in exactyl as you see it
[05:28] <Punkunity> is anyone in here really good with Wine?? I am trying to install PSP Viseo9 on wine, and am having problems
[05:28] <caleb> ok
[05:28] <caleb> ty
[05:28] <Zack> ok
[05:28] <Punkunity> I also am having problems with IE6 install onto wine(which is what PSPVideo 9 needs to work)
[05:29] <Lapinux> bruenig: well, i know all of the drives are older drives, one is scsi and the others are ata, im in partitioning step and its calling them all sd
[05:29] <firebird619> Lekrem: Any ideas on what to do to get a working xorg.conf file? sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg doesn't seem to fix the issue.
[05:29] <GrueTamer> firebird619: try 'xorgsetup', or just copy the xorg.conf file from off the livecd (if the livecd worked) and put it onto your regular installation
[05:29] <mat__> Hey guys
[05:29] <bruenig> Lapinux, ok...
[05:29] <mat__> I have a pretty basic question that maight not be ubuntu related
[05:29] <caleb> Im trying to get this box to work for my kid
[05:29] <bruenig> Lapinux, is there an issue with that?
[05:29] <Ademan> can anyone tell me if the 'client' can see the server with avahi?  in this lan setup (specifically banshee) http://picasaweb.google.com/ademan555/Misc/photo#5076870108898759058
[05:29] <caleb> he loves runescape and that needs java
[05:29] <Lekrem> Zack: type the /home/zack/ with a lowercase z, it matters in ext3
[05:29] <Jadder> well I remove nvidia-glx, I have my desktop 3d effect, but cube3d doesnt work,
[05:29] <linaxe> Is there no one here who is familiar with Avant Window Navigator??
[05:29] <TaJMoX> firebird619 - while in the reconfigure - try a different display driver.
[05:30] <Zack> i did
[05:30] <Zack> and it didnt work
[05:30] <cast> Lekrem: not just ext3, nix filesystems tend to be case sensitive me thinks
[05:30] <Lapinux> bruenig: well there was when i updated from 6.10 to 7.04 as it screwed up my entire system, though it shouldnt be a problem with a fresh install, as far as i can tell
[05:30] <GrueTamer> Zack: when you start a terminal, it goes to your home directory by default
[05:30] <Lapinux> bruenig: i was just curious

[05:33] <Bluecircle> thanks
[05:33] <Dr_willis> Bluecircle,  it may just be resized real small. move the curser to the right till it changes to a  double arrow
[05:33] <OmniD> Okay WHY WHY WHY does pulseaudio want to uninstall "ubuntu-desktop" when I try to uninstall it. That's ridiculous.
[05:33] <Perdente> thank god, cuz I realized I had way too many java apps
[05:33] <bullgard4> Who can tell me what the function of the kernel module vesafb is? modinfo vesafb is silent.
[05:33] <Perdente> well sorry I couldn't have been more help
[05:33] <Bluecircle> Dr_willis: yeah it was
[05:33] <caleb> lol
[05:33] <Lekrem> Zack, we r supposed to put in in the whole channel so everyone can learn
[05:33] <Dr_willis> OmniD,  ubuntu-desktop is a meta-package is why.
[05:33] <Perdente> eh
[05:33] <Zack> ok
[05:33] <caleb> you were lotsa help
[05:33] <mat__> Anyone know how to access an ubuntu computer from windows. literally, how do i make its name navigate to the ubuntu computer frmo my laptop on the network?

[05:33] <JeevesMoss> gruetamer:  any ideas?  I've googled it, but I think it's a specific thing that I'm doing wrong.
[05:33] <Perdente> lol I'm just glad you can enjoy java now
[05:33] <firebird619> TaJMoX: nv is what I have been trying and that hasn't worked so I can give vesa a try. If I do that and it works, will I be able to enable the NVIDIA driver in the Restricted Drivers Manager so it will then use that driver?
[05:33] <caleb> it wouldn't be working without you Thank You

[05:34] <caleb> My kid is gonna love being able to play runescape on this box
[05:34] <mat__> but the name doesnt hook to that
[05:34] <OmniD> I don't want pulseaudio, it keeps taking away sound and sitting around doing nothing not even mixing output
[05:34] <mat__> should i be telling my router something?
[05:34] <Perdente> hahah noooo
[05:34] <Dr_willis> OmniD,  ubuntu-desktop is just a metapackage that lists EVERYTHING ythats in 'ubuntu-desktop' default install.   by removing any packages it 'depends' on it gets removed as well. Its not a big deal.
[05:34] <Perdente> you didn't tell me it was for runescape
[05:34] <caleb> wasn't a waste i learned alot
[05:34] <caleb> lol
[05:34] <_`XeOn_> how to compress a folder to tar.gz using windows?
[05:34] <caleb> hes 12
[05:34] <Dr_willis> mat,  ya could edit the  windows box's host file.
[05:35] <Perdente> oh
[05:35] <GrueTamer> Perdente: if you had known it was for runescape, would you have not told him how to fix it or something? :)
[05:35] <Dr_willis> _`XeOn_,  7zip can do that.. winrar might be able to also.
[05:35] <cast> _`XeOn_: cygwin is nice if you have to use windows. but some of the archivers for windows will do tar.gz
[05:35] <Zack> so... anyone learn from that? lol
[05:35] <Perdente> I was about to tell you about my level 15 char from the past but that would have been a joke I swear
[05:35] <OmniD> Dr_willis so when I uninstall it it shouldn't do much right? Also I don't recall it being there until I installed mplayer. It seems to be better off when I close the program entirely as well.
[05:35] <caleb> hes a good guy he would have told me
[05:35] <bokbokin> how do i change sudo password? is it sudo passwd root?
[05:35] <mat__> ok then Ill look into the windows box host file
[05:35] <GrueTamer> bokbokin: just change your user password
[05:35] <Perdente> gruetamer: no I was just joking
[05:35] <_`XeOn_> the thing is i need that folder in my ubuntu server'
[05:36] <lo4fer> will k3b burn dual layer dvds?
[05:36] <ubuntu> Xeon on what server are you?

[05:36] <vnieto> Hi all
[05:36] <Perdente> well have fun caleb
[05:36] <cast> bokbokin: sudo passwd root would probably too
[05:36] <Dr_willis> OmniD,  ubuntu-desktop is there by default.  well not on Kubuntut
[05:36] <bokbokin> thanks cast
[05:36] <caleb> thanks Perdente your great
[05:36] <Modred> mat__: on XP it's at C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc, you should be able to figure out the format to put the command in inside the host file
[05:36] <rahmza> lo4fer, I don't think that it does burn dual layer DVDs
[05:36] <rahmza> but I could be wrong
[05:36] <_`XeOn_> edgy
[05:36] <vnieto> I need know if some of your have use aiglx with ati 200M?

[05:51] <Zack> "No such file or directory" Coldsteal
[05:52] <Perdente> what is it sileni
[05:52] <coldsteal> Zack: thats ur problem its not there
[05:52] <Zack> But it is
[05:52] <coldsteal> cast: what did i do
[05:52] <sileni> Perdente, have you heard of game called conqueronline?
[05:52] <lo4fer> k3b is a kde app but it will still run in gnome, correct?
[05:52] <coldsteal> Zack: you know its case sensitive
[05:52] <Perdente> yeah, I've heard of it although I don't play a lot, what's up?
[05:52] <coldsteal> Zack: do an ls in that dir
[05:52] <Zack> Coldsteal: it is on my desktop right now and i have a copy in my home, Yes i know it is case sensitive
[05:52] <sileni> is it possible to use wine and run it ?
[05:53] <sileni> or cedega
[05:53] <QwertyM> lo4fer, yes it will, but would need a lot of packages to be downloaded ..
[05:53] <Perdente> hmm one sec let me check
[05:53] <_`XeOn_> cast i didt and i says this ---> templates.tar: exported SGML document text
[05:53] <Zack> Ok i have done an ls
[05:53] <Zack> now what?
[05:53] <cast> coldsteal: hes about to execute a file as root, why oh why would you make it rw by everyone?
[05:54] <_`XeOn_> where is it now? i did ls and its not in the list
[05:54] <cast> _`XeOn_: well see there's your problem. its not a .tar, .tar.gz or .tar.bz2
[05:54] <coldsteal> cast: to see if it works
[05:54] <Zack> ls IS DONE
[05:54] <Zack> But what now?
[05:54] <coldsteal> Zack: i pmed u theres to much ppl leaving in this room its anoying
[05:54] <Zack> ok
[05:54] <lo4fer> if i download the dependant packages to use k3b, will that basically mean i've switched to a kde windows manager? will i get conflicts between gnome and the packages, or are they just libraries and such.
[05:54] <_`XeOn_> cast then how do i use the file
[05:55] <Perdente> sileni: should be a version for linux
[05:55] <EnsignRedshirt_> lo4fer: It's just a lot of libraries.  You will not be switched to KDE.
[05:55] <sileni> Perdentewhat you mean
[05:55] <sileni> Perdente, i looked on conquer online page and couldnt find it
[05:56] <lo4fer> thanks ensign.
[05:56] <_`XeOn_> if i cant use it the theres any way to upload files from windows to ubuntu?
[05:56] <Perdente> yeah, nm, I was reading a forum, in the end the person used Cedega which is another emulator like wine
[05:56] <marwils> EL MUNDO DE LO DESCONOCIDO
[05:56] <sileni> is cedega free?
[05:56] <lo4fer> get 'er done, synaptic
[05:56] <sileni> or possible to get for free?

[05:58] <sileni> dont think wine can run conqueronline
[05:58] <sileni> anyone in here have cedega?
[05:59] <sileni> if so is it really good for playing games?
[05:59] <Perdente> here
[05:59] <EnsignRedshirt_> _`XeOn_:  When I was using both windows and ubuntu computers, I used winscp on the windows side--it's a good program.
[05:59] <Perdente> wait
[05:59] <Perdente> look at this: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?versionId=2334
[05:59] <Perdente> you just need that version of wine
[06:00] <EnsignRedshirt_> _`XeOn_: Use google to find it, and feel lucky.
[06:00] <Perdente> here's what was on an ubuntu forum:
[06:00] <Perdente> It is playable through Wine...
[06:00] <Perdente> Someone on this Forums posted a link to WineHQ which indexed CO Playable through an older version of Wine...
[06:00] <Perdente> http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?versionId=2334
[06:00] <_`XeOn_> ok ill give it a try
[06:00] <Perdente> does anyone know how to go back to a previous version of a product?
[06:00] <rahmza> Hey.. I know it's rude to keep asking.. but I'm really desperate. Could anyone help me out with my Tv-Out Problem
[06:00] <ubuntu__> if I accidentally ran the 5.10 dvd base install program and it overwrote a file, would the new file have the currnet date as a modified timestamp, or some other date?
[06:01] <utopia_> is there anybody here who can tell me how to boot ubuntu from a floppy and then use the .iso on my hard drive?
[06:02] <Perdente> wait nm at the bottom it says it should work with later versions of wine
[06:02] <mat__> Hey guys, putting the address in the Hosts file of my windows box definitely helped. I can now ping my ubuntu box. I'm trying to get a subversion folder to access it, but its telling me that the machine is actively refusing the connection, is this a firewall getting in the way or something else?
[06:02] <foo> hm, anyone happen to know how I can get xterm to start with "huge" size? Usually I Ctrl+Right click on xterm to select huge. Thanks
[06:03] <i-like-beans> I get a "A StartDocPrinter call was not issued." error when trying to print to the shared printer on the ubuntu box
[06:03] <hendrixski> how can I set my DNS permanently?
[06:04] <madman91> hey guys
[06:04] <EnsignRedshirt_> utopia_: You could try "Smart Boot Manager": http://linux.simple.be/tools/sbm
[06:04] <ubuntu> hendrixski: kill yourself
[06:04] <madman91> hendrixski: edit /etc/dchp3/something
[06:04] <madman91> hendrixski: ill find it .. hold on
[06:04] <hendrixski> madman91, sweet, thanks
[06:05] <utopia_> ive checked alot of tutorials already EnsignRedshirt_ they've all fell short of what i want to do but ill check it out
[06:05] <colbert> How can I change my hostname ?
[06:05] <EnsignRedshirt_> utopia_: Tutorials?
[06:05] <madman91> hendrixski: here.. /etc/dchp3/dhclient.conf
[06:05] <madman91> hendrixski: edit this line prepend domain-name-servers 208.67.222.222,208.67.220.220;
[06:05] <madman91> hendrixski: (put your dns servers in there)
[06:05] <hendrixski> madman91, thank you :-)  yeah.. I was gonna set it for openDNS  :-)  i'ts the best
[06:06] <madman91> hendrixski: i use opendns :D
[06:06] <madman91> hendrixski: unless you have a static ip.. then you just put it into /etc/resolv.conf
[06:06] <hendrixski> madman91, I now.. I recognized the address you gave me  I'm just tired of having to input it each time I turn the computer on
[06:06] <jetsaredim> anyone know of a file reader on linux for compiled help files with .chm exrtension
[06:06] <n2diy> colbert:  take a look at hostname"s man page.
[06:06] <madman91> hendrixski: yeah
[06:07] <madman91> hendrixski: have fun with those :)
[06:07] <EnsignRedshirt_> jetsaredim: gnochm
[06:07] <hendrixski> madman91, I don't seem to have an /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.congf :-(
[06:07] <utopia_> EnsignRedshirt_ , how to's and forum threads
[06:07] <jose> Say - is there anyone here who might help me with the internet search function in Deskbar?
[06:07] <madman91> hendrixski: .conf not .confg
[06:07] <hendrixski> oh wait... nevermind
[06:07] <hendrixski> lol
[06:08] <madman91> hendrixski: remember that location.. its useful if you ever need to setup dns again
[06:09] <EnsignRedshirt_> utopia_: Smart Boot Manager (SBM) is a disk image that you use to create a bootable floppy.  In theory, you boot from the floppy, and it will let you boot from a CD.  I say in theory, because when I tried it once, I happened to run into a problem that prevented it from working.  You could give it a shot.
[06:09] <jetsaredim> EnsignRedshirt_: anything that's not gnome-based?
[06:09] <rahmza> Please.. surely somebody can at least give me a clue as to something I can try
[06:09] <BarlowBrad> Hey... anyone up for helping an ubuntu noob down the road to switching? I'm having problems with my wireless connection and accessing my old XP Pro install
[06:09] <hendrixski> madman91, "domain-name server" appears on several lines... any specific one?
[06:09] <ubuntu__> if I delete my etc/mtab and reboot will it be rebuilt?
[06:09] <EnsignRedshirt_> jetsaredim:  I don't know... that's the only one I've heard of, but I never looked very hard.
[06:10] <jetsaredim> EnsignRedshirt_: fair enough
[06:10] <madman91> hendrixski: make one line.. then comment out the others
[06:10] <jetsaredim> thanks
[06:10] <ubuntu__> and is there a copy of my old mtab hiding somewhere?
[06:11] <mat__> ok, silly question, does the default ubuntu distro have a firewall, and if so how do I get access to it?
[06:11] <Koba> Would anyone happen to know why I can only have one app playing audio at a time?
[06:11] <sileni> does anyone in here play conqueronline
[06:11] <lo4fer> well k3b appears to be burning this dual layer video dvd. "auto" for the speed setting gave 4.1x write speed. yuck. hopefully there's a faster manual select speed in that dropdown box.
[06:11] <n2diy> mat__: yes, Firestater is a good front end to your firewall.
[06:12] <mat__> cheers!
[06:12] <rahmza> yea.. check out https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/keeping-safe/C/firewall.html
[06:12] <colbert> Koba: your esd or hardware mixing, try #alsa, ask for wishie he will get it to work 100%
[06:12] <hendrixski> madman91, got it.  thanks
[06:12] <sileni> #alsa
[06:12] <utopia_> EnsignRedshirt_, yeah i think ill try fedora instead, better documentation
[06:12] <Koba> colbert: Thanks
[06:12] <lo4fer> firestarter is an interface for iptables, which is always running even when firestarter is not. do i have that right?
[06:13] <EnsignRedshirt_> Ah, my 7.04 install is finally booting.  Hint for anyone else: remove all external USB drives before doing an install.
[06:13] <i-like-beans> I get a "A StartDocPrinter call was not issued." error when trying to print to the shared printer on the ubuntu box - Whatever can i do?
[06:13] <n2diy> lo4fer: yep
[06:13] <madman91> hendrixski: but know that it would be better if you set your router up to use those dns servers
[06:13] <cast> lo4fer: there is no point in it. it just initializes some iptables ruels
[06:13] <madman91> hendrixski: and let dhcp assign those dns servers to each computer
[06:14] <madman91> hendrixski: but i understand you,... i did the same thing for a long time
[06:14] <BarlowBrad> ensignRedshirt: thanks for the random comment... it's given me an idea to try (external usb drives)
[06:14] <cast> lo4fer: [uh that wasn't very clear] . firestarter sets up the rules, so firestarter always running would be silly. iptables is in the kernel and always running

[06:20] <coldsteal> well i helped zach and thundr2 and no one has helped me
[06:20] <ubuntu> bruenig: i read and how to backup total?
[06:20] <n2diy> How can I make Nautilus not abbreviate the size of files?
[06:20] <bruenig> ubuntu, do what it says tar up /
[06:21] <ubuntu> bruenig: and after that,they have example with only one directory
[06:21] <coldsteal> i did aptitude remove apache2;rm -fr /etc/apache2;aptitude  install apache2 and now it wont start because the new  install didnt put apache2.conf in /etc/apache2/
[06:21] <coldsteal> so how do i do an install with aptitude so it actually  installs everything new again
[06:22] <bruenig> ubuntu, no, the tutorial is how to back up the entire system, you tar up / and then to restore you untar it
[06:22] <bruenig> oh that is the wrong one
[06:22] <ubuntu> bruenig:can you put the exact command.
[06:23] <bruenig> ubuntu, this one: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem/TAR
[06:23] <ubuntu> bruenig: bah,again
[06:24] <Hillview> hello.. got a quick question.. I'm looking for an easy/painless way to make copies of a homebrewed DVD movie.  k9copy is giving me some trouble, so I'm wondering if there's an easier way I'm missing. ;)
[06:24] <ubuntu> bruenig: what was one file system?
[06:24] <lo4fer> what would a network device called "wmaste" be?
[06:24] <bruenig> ubuntu, your question doesn't make sense
[06:24] <n2diy> Hillview: k3b?
[06:24] <bruenig> what was one file system?
[06:24] <bruenig> ntfs is one file system
[06:24] <ubuntu> bruenig: bah,man i make this and after that when restore it say that have error?
[06:25] <|newbie|> HEI HEI HEI
[06:25] <|newbie|> long time no see
[06:25] <bruenig> ubuntu, tar up /, then untar it at /, when you untar it, it will overwrite every file in your system
[06:25] <ubuntu> bruenig: We don't want to backup everything since some dirs aren't very useful to include.?
[06:25] <Hillview> n2diy, haven't tried it.. you're familiar with k3b?
[06:25] <bruenig> ubuntu, yeah that is what the tutorial says
[06:26] <bruenig> ubuntu, such as proc
[06:26] <ubuntu> bruenig: and i want all system.
[06:26] <cast> ubuntu: bingo.  you probably only need /home and /var
[06:26] <n2diy> Hillview: yes, but I haven't burned a DVD, only cds.
[06:26] <ubuntu> cast no,i need all system
[06:26] <ubuntu> cast apache,mysql and et.
[06:26] <bruenig> ubuntu, proc is dynamic, it holds your processes, your processes will differ, it does not good to back it up
[06:26] <|newbie|> hahahahahaha
[06:26] <bruenig> does no*
[06:27] <cast> then tar up / minus /proc and /sys
[06:27] <|newbie|> you all go to hell
[06:27] <n2diy> ubuntu, take a look at mondo, but test your backups before relying on it.
[06:27] <|newbie|> hahahahaha

[06:27] <yigal__> i just installed arch linux and now, even after I put the boot parameters in /boot/grub/menu.lst I cannot boot into my Ubuntu?
[06:27] <ubuntu> bruenig: man,ok help some little
[06:27] <yigal__> can anyone give me some help
[06:27] <hanjichao_> 
[06:28] <yigal__> hanjichao_ is that japanese?
[06:28] <ubuntu> bruenig: to backup,apache,mysql,and all important thing what i need to write/
[06:28] <rob> sup?
[06:28] <bruenig> ubuntu, just follow the idea, tar up what you want, and then untar it later to replace
[06:28] <bruenig> yigal_, if you have arch installed, why would you want to
[06:29] <rob> EnsignRedshirt_ and bruenig?
[06:29] <n2diy> bruenig: but how to you boot, to get to tar?
[06:29] <ubuntu> bruenig: but i don't know what is important
[06:29] <lgc> yigal_, it was a Japanese curse.
[06:29] <bruenig> ubuntu, well figure that out
[06:29] <lo4fer> ban him
[06:29] <bruenig> I mean I can
[06:29] <ubuntu> bruenig: apache,mysql and the all important things.
[06:29] <rob> why was ops called?
[06:29] <bruenig> I mean I can't know what is and isn't important to you, figure that stuff out and tar it
[06:30] <EnsignRedshirt_> rob:  Because |newbie| was spamming.
[06:30] <rob> ah k, poke me if it continues
[06:30] <ubuntu> n2diy: uff man,
[06:30] <EnsignRedshirt_> rob:  tonyyarusso dealt with it.
[06:30] <yigal__> bruenig: Ubuntu has science software that I really like having, texlive, gnuplot, and a few others that have real quirks in arch
[06:30] <idefixx> ubuntu: /etc/apache2 /etc/mysql /var/lib/mysql.. or wherever ubuntu stores that stuff.
[06:30] <lo4fer> what does ups do
[06:30] <lo4fer> err, ops
[06:30] <rob> EnsignRedshirt_, np. cheers :)
[06:30] <bruenig> yigal_, have you checked out abs?
[06:31] <samuel> anyone know of an easy gui tool for ripping dvds and encoding them?
[06:31] <ubuntu> idefixx: ok then continued,to back up?
[06:31] <n2diy> bruenig: ?? no man page for uff?
[06:31] <yigal__> bruenig: texlive isn't there :(
[06:31] <yanni_> can anyone please help me setup my wireless g card
[06:31] <idefixx> ubuntu: sry?
[06:31] <yanni_> the lights won't even come on
[06:31] <ubuntu> idefixx: tar -cvzf /backup.tgz --exclude=/proc --exclude=/lost+found --exclude=/backup.tgz --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/sys /  where to put apache ?
[06:31] <bruenig> yigal_, really? have you checked aur
[06:31] <yigal__> bruenig: its not a big deal, but I would like to be able to boot to the other OS in on my box
[06:32] <pwngasm> how do i uninstall enemy territory, if i installed it using the binary
[06:32] <yigal__> bruenig: excuse me I checked aur not abs
[06:32] <pwngasm> ?
[06:32] <idefixx> ubuntu: if you use that command.. you'll backup pretty much everything. no need to put that anywhere.
[06:32] <Rictoo> how do I find out what sound driver is currently being used?
[06:32] <yigal__> bruenig: do you like arch?
[06:32] <ubuntu> bah is there some another backup command
[06:32] <bruenig> yigal_, well abs is the same stuff as pacman -Ss, I was just saying that with abs, you could see if they compiled it weird and change it, I had to do that with wine and xchat
[06:32] <bruenig> xchat for spellcheck
[06:32] <idefixx> ubuntu: there are a bunch of backup commands.. just use the one u just posted and you'll be save.
[06:32] <ubuntu> idefixx: then how to backup apache,mysql and the things that will work,after some deleted things
[06:33] <bruenig> yigal_, yes, it is very good
[06:33] <BarlowBrad> hey, i just installed ubuntu on one hard drive (my xp install is on the other), but now when the computer starts up, i get a boot error... any ideas?
[06:33] <ubuntu> idefixx: but you say that command is not good to backup?
[06:33] <idefixx> ubuntu: espcialy considering that you dont really seem to know what to backup it probably a good idea to get everything.
[06:33] <ubuntu> ok what i the command
[06:33] <Rictoo> how do I find out what sound driver is currently being used?
[06:33] <yigal__> bruenig: they simply don't have texlive, - bruenig I like the rolling release structure and the fact that I can taylor my own system the way I like it with Arch but Ubuntu has well programs :)
[06:33] <Naisenu> Is there a way to input special characters in the Windows method (example: to get  - in International keyboard layout, I'd press: ^+a)? I've looked through many of the keyboard layout options in said section and cannot find anything which seems to fit my needs, and I don't want to waltz over to the character map just to input a special character.
[06:34] <idefixx> ubuntu: no thats not what i meant. the command is good. you dont need to add the stuff i told you to this command since it already includes the path i mentioned.
[06:34] <pwngasm> how do i uninstall enemy territory, if i installed it using the binary????
[06:34] <Rictoo> !oss | Rictoo
[06:34] <bruenig> yigal_, I have been looking for stuff to package on arch because I have packaged for other distros and it has all been there, I will package that I guess, give me something to do
[06:34] <bsund> hey
[06:34] <Frogzoo_> Naisenu: install a kb layout with deadkeys
[06:34] <BarlowBrad> however, i can get into the ubuntu if i start with the cd in and then choose to "boot first hard disk" (there isn't an option for a second disk)
[06:34] <bsund> is there any chan for beryl?
[06:34] <toddobryan> Naisenu: Try the right-alt+^, then a.
[06:35] <n2diy> ! extended character set
[06:35] <bruenig> yigal_, but yeah I don't know what the grub stuff is for ubuntu, sorry to distract you
[06:35] <Naisenu> Frogzoo, re-read my statement: "I've looked through many of the keyboard layout options in said section and cannot find anything which seems to fit my needs"
[06:35] <toddobryan> 
[06:35] <Hillview> quick question.. trying to copy a disc in k9copy, I get 'dvdauthor: dvdvob.c:1297: FindVobus: Assertion `p>=s->vi[i-1] .sectpts[1] ' failed.' - wondering if anyone has any ideas what I can do to fix it?
[06:35] <yanni_> is there a channel for Wiereless help
[06:35] <Naisenu> That and I can't get the second level compose to work
[06:35] <Fezzler> When I start up Gaim I get tabs for NickServ, freenode-connect, ChanServ - I don't understand role of each?
[06:35] <bsund> i have a problem with beryl. anyone tried the blur effect. it's really cool but's way to slow
[06:36] <yigal__> Fezzler: then switch to xchat
[06:36] <toddobryan> Naisenu: Similarly, right-alt+', then e gives , etc.
[06:36] <bsund> i have it at 1.1 strength
[06:36] <ubuntu> idefixx: it start to backup
[06:36] <Naisenu> toddobryan, RAlt+a gives an "a" with nothing special. :)
[06:36] <thundr2> I tried to upgrade to Feisty when it came out but the server crashed due to the load and Ubuntu won't boot.  I fixed the superblock error and I have all my data back, but I knew it couldn't have been that easy for a full fix.  The data is there and accessible, but I think something basic about Ubuntu itself needs repairing.  It shows me the logo and freezes on "Starting up...".
[06:36] <yanni_> go to the #ubuntu-effects channel
[06:36] <bsund> k thanks :)
[06:36] <thundr2> Sometimes it gives me a busybox, but I don't know what to do with it.
[06:36] <ubuntu> idefixx: how can i install skype on ubuntu server
[06:36] <toddobryan> Naisenu: right-alt+shift+6, then a.
[06:36] <pwngasm> how do i uninstall enemy territory, if i installed it using the binary???? please i need to know, is there a special way to do it or do i just delete the directory it created?
[06:36] <Fezzler> yigal: Benefits of xchat?  Compare, contrast to Gaim?
[06:36] <JoelR> Hello. i have a question, Ubuntu's CDs that Cannonical sends, is it the "Ubuntu alternative CD"? i need to do a text install
[06:36] <yanni_> how can I get my Belkin Wireless G card to work?
[06:36] <toddobryan> Naisenu: assuming your ^ is shift-6.
[06:36] <idefixx> Fezzler: this is not an ubuntu issue... go to freenode.net and read the faq. also,
[06:36] <idefixx> !register | Fezzler
[06:37] <ubotu> Fezzler: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[06:37] <Naisenu> toddobryan, "^a" nothing special ... and yes the carat is above the 6
[06:37] <bullgard4> Who can tell me what the function of the kernel module vesafb is? modinfo vesafb is silent.
[06:37] <toddobryan> Are you in Gnome?
[06:37] <lo4fer> cool. dual layer burn with k3b was success.
[06:37] <idefixx> ubuntu: sky -> http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/
[06:37] <Fezzler> Thanks
[06:37] <Naisenu> toddobryan, Yes
[06:37] <vecina> How come i cant play .rms or .rmvb files?
[06:38] <pwngasm> how do i uninstall enemy territory, if i installed it using the binary???? please i need to know, is there a special way to do it or do i just delete the directory it created?
[06:38] <thundr2> pwngasm: I think it may have its own uninstall script
[06:38] <n2diy> lo4fer: :)
[06:38] <JoelR> Hello. i have a question, Ubuntu's CDs that Cannonical sends, is it the "Ubuntu alternative CD"? i need to do a text install

[06:38] <pwngasm> thundr2: where would i find that?
[06:38] <toddobryan> So you're doing the right-alt key at the same time as shift and 6. Then releasing those and immediately pressing a without pressing any other keys?
[06:38] <thundr2> pwngasm: in the directory where you installed ET
[06:38] <Naisenu> toddobryan, ah yes I changed the compose to RCtrl. Since I was trying to figure out how to make second level compose work.
[06:38] <toddobryan> Oh.
[06:38] <idefixx> pwngasm: i think it'll be enough if you just delet the dir. did you install it as root?
[06:38] <toddobryan> Didn't think about that.
[06:39] <bruenig> yigal_, is texlive a live cd?
[06:39] <JoelR> nobody can answer my question? :S
[06:39] <TaJMoX> JoelR : it is probably not the alternate cd
[06:39] <idefixx> JoelR: if you need to do a text install that is the cd you want.
[06:39] <pwngasm> idefixx: no, just on my home directory
[06:39] <yigal__> Fezzler: xchat has a tree view and no tabs.  It is much more customizable than pidgin but for a beginner either one works well. :)
[06:39] <BarlowBrad> how do i get ubuntu to burn an audio cd by converting mp3s without connecting it to the internet and installing gstream? (my wireless isn't working)
[06:39] <Naisenu> ah blah it was the third-level chooser i couldn't get to work
[06:40] <JoelR> idefixx: which one? the one that shipit sent me or other?
[06:40] <n2diy> JoelR, as of Dapper, they were live cds.
[06:40] <bruenig> yigal_, xchat has tabs, view>layout
[06:40] <TaJMoX> barlowBrad : get the gstreamer deb file and it's dependencies from a computer which is connected
[06:40] <idefixx> JoelR: the alternate-cd is the cd with the text installer. the live-cd is the cd with the graph installer.
[06:41] <JoelR> This is the problem, i have an ATI Radeon X1400 and when i went to install Fiesty Fawn, it didn't start the GUI.. anyone has experience on it?
[06:41] <yigal__> bruenig: your back, sweet
[06:41] <thundr2> idefixx: I think he knows that - he's asking if the shipit ones include the alternates
[06:41] <TaJMoX> barlowbrad /var/cache/apt/archives has all the deb files that were installed... find it there
[06:41] <yigal__> bruenig: Fezzler doesn't like tabs so I decided to try and convince him xchat was better, but I used the wrong reasons
[06:41] <bruenig> hmm he is going to hate firefox
[06:41] <Naisenu> toddobryan, you wouldn't happen to know what the inverted question mark and exclamation marks are would you
[06:41] <idefixx> pwngasm: well in that case its probaly save to just remove it from your homedir... i belive to remember that et installed itself to /usr/local if you install it as root (might be the server thoough) but if you werent root the only place it can have installed itself is in your homedir.
[06:42] <KingNothing> Is there a quick fix for not being able to stream media from a samba share to ubuntu? I can't view most videos with mplayer, or listen to audio with rhythmbox.
[06:42] <mikeyhatesms> INSTALLATION PROBLEM: i can't get past the first page where ubuntu asks for local time zone.  window extends too low off the screen, and after i select 'ny time' cant reach the 'enter' button at the bottom of the paqe, and, hence, cannot continue the install .... can anyone HELP?
[06:42] <toddobryan> Naisenu: Those are the two I've wondered about and never found...
[06:42] <pwngasm> idefixx: so linux doesnt have like a registry that fucks up like windows if stuff aint taken off properly?
[06:42] <n2diy> Naisenu: search google for "extended character set."
[06:42] <thundr2> mikeyhatesms: just pressing the Enter key doesn't work?
[06:43] <mikeyhatesms> nope, tried that
[06:43] <idefixx> pwngasm: no :)
[06:43] <idefixx> thundr2: oops i missread what he said first.. thx.
[06:43] <sileni> guyssss someen play conquer online in here ?
[06:43] <pwngasm> idefixx: linux is my god
[06:43] <thundr2> pwngasm: It's got dependencies, but that's something completely different and likely irrelevant if you're using a binary only.
[06:43] <thundr2> idefixx: No problem
[06:44] <drake4> pwngasm, its not like you cant still screw it up, just not in the same way
[06:44] <Rictoo> Guys, did you hear the news!?
[06:44] <BarlowBrad> tajmox: thanks, but how do i get them if this computer isn't running ubuntu?
[06:44] <mikeyhatesms> thundr2: nope, tried that; any other way around?

[06:44] <coalchamber1022> hey im trying to some new themes for beryl and im stuck is there a certain websites or keyword i can search to find some
[06:44] <pwngasm> drake4: lol i know this, but its still way better then windows
[06:44] <Fezzler> yigal: I'm registered buy NickServ is not allowing me to link my primary password to an alternative ????
[06:44] <nomasteryoda> mikeyhatesms, can you use the Alt key and click-drag the window up to get to what you need?
[06:44] <drake4> sure, for some purposes
[06:44] <idefixx> pwngasm: there might be some files in in your homedir (where it stores the settings) look for a dir '.et' or '.rtcw' (show hidden files must be on) to delte them as well.
[06:45] <nomasteryoda> anywhere on any window in linux "Alt" plus clickdrag to move window
[06:45] <pwngasm> oh k
[06:45] <JoelR> anyone has experience with an ATI Radeon X1400 in Ubuntu?
[06:45] <drake4> unfortunately there are still a lot of specialized apps with no decent equivalents in open source

[06:45] <Rictoo> How do I find what repo a certain package was in?
[06:45] <mikeyhatesms> nomasteryoda: no, can't click drag it upwards either, can only clickdrag left or right, or full minimize, nothing in between
[06:45] <nomasteryoda> drake4, true... its why some still have to use dualboot, do windows in a vm or have 2 machines
[06:46] <idefixx> !ati | JoelR
[06:46] <ubotu> JoelR: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:46] <n2diy> Naisenu: and you missed 18 million hits like this one? http://www.dtp-aus.com/ext_set.htm
[06:46] <nomasteryoda> mikeyhatesms, i have done on that dialog before... if you have a mouse cursor
[06:46] <drake4> I want one of those Asus EEE PC701 notebooks
[06:46] <idefixx> JoelR: as thundr2 pointed out i missunderstood you, sry. I dont know which cd canonical ships... why dont you just try and see for yourself?
[06:46] <drake4> wonder if you will be able to jam ubuntu on the 4 gig flash
[06:47] <nomasteryoda> mikeyhatesms, you used the "Alt" key?
[06:47] <drake4> and exactly how you go about it without optical media
[06:47] <Naisenu> n2diy, Except I'm not looking for the extended character set
[06:47] <vecina> WHy cant i install realplayer!? what is libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0:!?
[06:47] <idefixx> Rictoo: apt-cache policy <package>
[06:47] <kkerwin> Hi, I wish to setup Samba using the SWAT interface, but cannot seem to connect. Anyone know how to setup SWAT?
[06:47] <vecina> >.<
[06:48] <Naisenu> n2diy, I was looking for how to input these characters using the compose key. E.g. Compose-^-a
[06:48] <[SMS] Gortok> To set up SWAT, first you must rob a bank.
[06:48] <mikeyhatesms> nomasteryoda: actually, it's a laptop and i was usuing the touchscreen and directional button that dell has on lat 600
[06:48] <idefixx> [SMS] Gortok: hehe
[06:48] <kkerwin> [SMS] Gortok: You win. Next?
[06:48] <nomasteryoda> mikeyhatesms, plug in a usb mouse
[06:48] <nomasteryoda> sometimes you have to do such
[06:49] <mikeyhatesms> nomasteryoda: u think it will make a diff?  i'll try *anything
[06:49] <Rictoo> thanks idefixx
[06:49] <mikeyhatesms> thanks, guys, will check back later
[06:49] <n2diy> Naisenu: I thought you where looking for the inverted question mark, 161, and exclamation mark, 191?
[06:49] <nomasteryoda> mikeyhatesms,  so this thing has only a 640x480 screen resolution?
[06:49] <idefixx> [SMS] Gortok: swat is run from inetd did you configure it?
[06:50] <nomasteryoda> i have a dell D505 latitude...
[06:50] <Naisenu> n2diy, I am looking for those. I am looking for how to input them with the above-mentioned method.
[06:50] <idefixx> [SMS] Gortok: damn that wasnt for u.
[06:50] <mikeyhatesms> no, it's sposed to have more resolution
[06:50] <mikeyhatesms> but it din't give me the option on the one screen
[06:50] <nomasteryoda> mikeyhatesms,  err, you will have after installing...
[06:50] <idefixx> kkerwin: damn that wasnt for u.
[06:50] <nomasteryoda> i have 1400x1050
[06:51] <idefixx> .. im to tired, again.
[06:51] <idefixx> kkerwin: swat is run from inetd did you configure it?
[06:51] <n2diy> Naisenu: wait, I've don it before, just don't remember how.
[06:51] <nomasteryoda> mikeyhatesms, the text install might be needed for you
[06:51] <n2diy> ! extended characters
[06:51] <kkerwin> idefixx: Nope. Just assumed that I could do a `sudo /etc/init.d/swat start'.
[06:52] <kkerwin> idefixx: How do I go about configuring inetd? I'm used to init.d scripts ...
[06:52] <mikeyhatesms> nomasteryoda: for 1024.... that would be great; also, anticipating another problem, will the cd guide me through the partitioning process???  don't know re: text install
[06:53] <mikeyhatesms> nomasteryoda: i am complete newbie
[06:53] <idefixx> kkerwin: no you'll have to setup inetd or xinetd.. and add it that configfile.
[06:53] <GoldeNArX> sup guys
[06:53] <kkerwin> idefixx: Ok. Not sure how to set either up.
[06:53] <mikeyhatesms> nomasteryoda: well, i will let you know how i do, gonna power down and try again ...
[06:54] <vejan> my gcc compiler will not compile sample save example?
[06:54] <kkerwin> idefixx: Never mind, I think that Google may have come to the rescue this time.
[06:54] <kkerwin> idefixx: I'll let you know.
[06:54] <GoldeNArX> i've got a raid controller that I need to install drivers for to install ubuntu. anybody have a link or a howto or some wisdom for me?
[06:54] <idefixx> kkerwin: to install the inetd 'apt-get install openbsd-inetd' look at 'man swat' and 'man inetd'. Config is /etc/inetd.conf
[06:55] <kkerwin> idefixx: I'm in. Thanks again.
[06:56] <idefixx> kkerwin: np
[06:57] <jcapote> hows ubuntu with software raid 5?
[06:58] <bear> hello
[07:00] <Nutubuntu> How can I verify the md5 checksum of a Feisty iso before burning the cd?
[07:01] <tksick> wassup?
[07:01] <idefixx> md5sum /path/to/isofile
[07:01] <Nutubuntu> t/y idefixx :)
[07:02] <n2diy> +161
[07:03] <idefixx> jcapote: dont know, but honestly i only use hardware r5.. you'll need at least 4hds (one spare) anyway.
[07:03] <jcapote> idefixx: i thought that raid 5 was a minimum of 3 drives
[07:04] <lockdown2> raid 5 requires at least 3 drives
[07:04] <matthew1429> what is the chmod command to make everything r/w on a samba share for a user?
[07:04] <lockdown2> i only do hardware raid too
[07:04] <Nutubuntu> jcapote- that's right, 3
[07:04] <idefixx> jcapote: it is thus the (one spare) makes no sense otherwise.
[07:04] <jcapote> idefixx: ah, i get you i thought by spare you meant the parity drive
[07:04] <Nutubuntu> No, just you want one to swap in case of failure
[07:04] <tksick> i know this is (might) a really uncommon question but, is there a way to make tk (as in tcl/tk) any less ugly? this
[07:05] <tksick> tile package
[07:05] <KingNothing> Are there known issues with sound mixing on x64 ubuntu?
[07:05] <Nutubuntu> I'm inclined toward RAID1 myself (mirroring) ... and toward buying a new drive if one fails. You match partition size, not drive size per se
[07:07] <jcapote> i heard not so good things about software raid in ubuntu
[07:07] <jcapote> in terms of r5
[07:07] <tksick> this tile package, does it work with ubuntu?
[07:07] <jcapote> i may just go with a software r1
[07:07] <vejan> my gcc compiler will not compile sample saved template! why not?
[07:07] <GoldeNArX> if I want to configure software raid0 in the ubuntu feist live install cd how do I do that?
[07:07] <GoldeNArX> *feist
[07:07] <GoldeNArX> y
[07:07] <Appakot> is there an itunes for linux or do you have to run it through wine?
[07:07] <jcapote> Appakot: banshee
[07:07] <idefixx> I gotta agree with Nutubuntu r5 is much to expansive for homeuse. just mirror your stuff and be done with it.
[07:07] <jcapote> yea, your right
[07:07] <Nutubuntu> GoldeNArX- RAID0 is only safe for data you can afford to lose
[07:07] <Appakot> jcapote, banshee?
[07:07] <tksick> Rewording: Do anybody has any experience customizing tcl/tk under ubuntu?
[07:07] <jcapote> Appakot: its an itunes like music player for ubuntu
[07:07] <n2diy> 161
[07:08] <n2diy> 161
[07:08] <Appakot> jcapote, can you use it to sync your ipod with new music, etc...?
[07:08] <n2diy> Darn
[07:09] <lockdown2> Appakot, http://www.desktoplinux.com/articles/AT7150747782.html

[07:10] <Perdente> amarok!
[07:10] <Perdente> sorry, that was just an I support it
[07:10] <matthew1429> what is the chmod command to make everything r/w on a samba share for a user?
[07:10] <latitude> hi. I am trying to get a pcmcia capture card to work with edgy. does anyone know a good guide? thanks
[07:10] <kkerwin> Perdente: Phew! I thought that I was about to be flamed there for a moment.
[07:11] <idefixx> matthew1429: chmod ugo+rw /path/to/stuff/* ... you dont wanna do that.
[07:11] <Perdente> haha nah never although that was a big claim
[07:11] <Draconicus> ARGH

[07:11] <ubotu> matthew1429: The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[07:11] <Draconicus> Is there ANYONE with PPC experience in here?
[07:11] <Cowfood> hey whats a good desktop weather app?
[07:11] <Draconicus> Particularly with an iMac?
[07:11] <Draconicus> I've got a nasty display mess that wasn't a problem with an older version of Ubuntu, but is now..
[07:12] <Draconicus> Oh. Hmm. It fixed itself.
[07:12] <Perdente> cowfood
[07:12] <Perdente> the simplest
[07:12] <Perdente> is already built into ubuntu, just for a quick weather reference
[07:13] <Perdente> right click on the menubar and go to add to panel
[07:13] <Perdente> there is a weather report accessory there that you can drag to your menu
[07:13] <Cowfood> what?
[07:14] <idefixx> matthew1429: oops, the command is 'chmod -R ugo+rw /path/to/stuff/*'
[07:14] <Perdente> well if you just want to know the immediate weather, there is an icon you can add to your main panel that keeps track of the weather
[07:15] <Perdente> cowfood: do you see it?
[07:16] <Perdente> hello?
[07:17] <Perdente> hey, got logged out, did I miss anything?
[07:18] <Appakot> hey, can someone help me with wine, or is there a specific channel for that?
[07:18] <Draconicus> I've noticed the usplash boot splash in 6.10 and 7.04 seem to not work on some machines, while older versions were fine. Doesn't anyone else know of this?
[07:18] <Perdente> Appakot, if you post your problem at launchpad, they can send the problem to the people who made wine if they think it applies
[07:19] <FreeFull> Appakot: Go to #winehq
[07:19] <Perdente> that way it will also be there for people with similar problems to see

[07:23] <DrStrangeLov> has it got anything to do with enabling overburn? or perhaps driver support?
[07:23] <Cowfood> Perdente, thank you
[07:23] <vejan> its says can't find the saved sample program
[07:23] <eck> DrStrangeLov: it is most likely something to do with enabling overburn, not driver support

[07:25] <actualandrew> even though im not on it right now for technical reasons
[07:25] <actualandrew> i will be soon

[07:25] <lockdown2> vejan, and template.c is in your current directory?

[07:26] <lockdown2> NickPresta, either way will work
[07:26] <vejan> yep

[07:27] <Perdente> ehh, not gonna lie, it helped switching over that I smashed my xp cd into a bunch of pieces after making the switch lol
[07:27] <vejan> directory
[07:27] <actualandrew> Perdente: lol
[07:27] <vejan> and its there
[07:28] <actualandrew> now i just have to find a way to run rhapsody on ubuntu
[07:28] <Perdente> there is a space
[07:28] <n2diy> 161
[07:28] <lockdown2> vejan, is that a copy and paste or typo?  beucase you have a space in template .c
[07:28] <Perdente> after tempate and before .c I don't know if you actually put that
[07:28] <vejan> and gcc: no input files
[07:28] <Norco> hi 2 all
[07:28] <actualandrew> Norco: hi
[07:28] <Perdente> ok copy and paste, gcc -g template -o template.c
[07:28] <eck> vejan: you must have a typo somewhere
[07:28] <bone43> Norco Hello
[07:28] <NickPresta> lockdown2, you're right. It works either way. Forgive my ignorance.
[07:28] <vejan> oh
[07:28] <Jordan_U> actualandrew, If Ubuntu is performing slower than XP for you then something is probably causing that slowness, do you have the GFX drivers for your card installed?
[07:28] <Perdente> haha jk
[07:28] <Norco> i use ubuntu first day
[07:29] <Perdente> hey norco
[07:29] <Jordan_U> !hi | Norco
[07:29] <ubotu> Norco: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[07:29] <Norco> I trally happy ! Fucking windows
[07:29] <Cowfood> how do i change the name of my ubuntu box?
[07:29] <Norco> really*
[07:29] <Jordan_U> !ohmy | Norco
[07:29] <ubotu> Norco: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[07:29] <NickPresta> !language | Norco
[07:29] <vejan> i tried gcc -g template.c -o template
[07:29] <Norco> ok
[07:30] <norealgravity> anyone know how to change boot option in xp? i want to boot my ubuntu off my external dvd rom drive
[07:30] <Norco> sth
[07:30] <Nutubuntu> I'm having trouble burning the Feisty alternate iso to cd. cdrecord says there is not enough space on the cd?
[07:30] <niru> I have a doubt
[07:30] <Jordan_U> norealgravity, You don't change it in XP, you change it in your BIOS
[07:30] <actualandrew> norealgravity: that is in the bios
[07:30] <niru> can I use ubuntu usplash in any other distro
[07:30] <eck> Nutubuntu: weird, you might want to check dmesg or the like to see if any errors are being reported by the drive
[07:30] <actualandrew> norealgravity: restart, press del (most likely)  fool around in there till u find ur dvdrom drive
[07:30] <mrynit> i have VLC media player 0.8.6 (wxWidgets interface) but 0.8.6b is out. they say to apt-get it but the verion does not change
[07:31] <norealgravity> do i  hit f8 and will bios recognize by usb external drive?
[07:31] <bokbokin> when i did sudo passwd , it didnt change the sudo password cuz when i load automatix still the working sudo password is the old one
[07:31] <bokbokin> how am i going to change sudo?
[07:31] <bokbokin> how am i going to change sudo password?
[07:31] <Jordan_U> niru, I don't know how but I don't see why not.
[07:31] <Norco> Sory, but anyon know. Lineage II worked  under Linux ??
[07:31] <actualandrew> norealgravity: its worth a try
[07:31] <Nutubuntu> eck - okay, will do ...
[07:31] <norealgravity> ok thx
[07:31] <eck> bokbokin: uh, you don't need sudo to change your own password
[07:31] <Jordan_U> bokbokin, The password you enter for sudo is your user's password
[07:31] <actualandrew> norealgravity: report back ;-)
[07:32] <Jordan_U> bokbokin, What you changed with "sudo passwd" was the root password
[07:32] <norealgravity> i will. m y dvd rom frive spins faster then my cdrom dvd drive internal. 3 times faster
[07:32] <bokbokin> oh Jordan_U so if i add another normal user then the sudo password for that another new user is his own password is that it?
[07:32] <actualandrew> norealgravity: booya! there u go, hope bios find sit
[07:33] <norealgravity> k be back in a few
[07:33] <Jordan_U> bokbokin, If that user has permission to use sudo, yes.
[07:33] <actualandrew> norealgravity: lookin for boot options
[07:33] <actualandrew> k
[07:33] <Cowfood> this is my problem with postfix--> PERM_FAILURE: SMTP Error (state 13): 554 <john@chinesbooks.net>: Relay access denied
[07:33] <r_rehashed> hi all. how do i remove the icons of my disk partitions from my Desktop?
[07:33] <niru> Jordan_U, I asked because ubuntu has a dark seen but I have a multi colour file
[07:33] <Nutubuntu> eck - I'm not sure what I'm seeing in dmesg - last message is 'scsi: unknown opcode 0x01'
[07:33] <niru> so its not replacing
[07:33] <Appakot> can anyone tell me why Banshee won't recognize my iPod?
[07:33] <niru> can anybody help me out in putting an usplash image
[07:34] <eck> Cowfood: you probably have the server to only allow relay access from the localhost, or something like that
[07:34] <KingJere> has anyone succesfully bound two wireless nics? Point me toward a guide? I found one for wired nics and I'm not sure what changes are necessary to make it work with wireless.
[07:34] <bokbokin> # User privilege specification
[07:34] <bokbokin> root    ALL=(ALL) ALL
[07:34] <drake4> postfix is set up like that by default
[07:34] <bokbokin> so that means all users can sudo
[07:34] <Jordan_U> Appakot, Is it formatted mac ( HFS+ ) or FAT?
[07:34] <Appakot> Jordan_U, not a clue in the world......any way to check?
[07:35] <eck> Nutubuntu: i'm not sure what it means either, but it's certainly not good :-)
[07:35] <Jordan_U> Appakot, gparted or "sudo fdisk -l"
[07:35] <Nutubuntu> we like the known opcodes better :)
[07:35] <Cowfood> eck, my server has a local ip of 192.168.1.66, and i put it in the config, could u take a look at my config and help me ?
[07:35] <drake4> be careful, though, if you open it up to an internal private network 192.168.1.x
[07:35] <drake4> and your router is 1.1
[07:36] <Perdente> appakot, or right click the icon and go to volume, what does it say under file system
[07:36] <Perdente> oh under the volume tab
[07:36] <drake4> make darn sure you restrict 1.1 or else spammers will relay based on your internal router ip
[07:36] <drake4> ie, only allow 192.168.1.2-254
[07:36] <eck> Cowfood: i'm not really a postfix expert. i would just say turn on tls and smtp auth and make them mandatory
[07:37] <HorizonXP> hey everyone
[07:37] <Jordan_U> !hi | HorizonXP
[07:37] <ubotu> HorizonXP: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[07:37] <eck> the idea of allowing hosts based on their ip address is kind of flawed
[07:37] <HorizonXP> lol
[07:38] <HorizonXP> gota love ubotu
[07:38] <drake4> eck, that is why I warned him about the 1.1 problem
[07:38] <Perdente> <3's ubuntu?
[07:38] <HorizonXP> anyone running Feisty on an Intel Core 2 Duo?
[07:38] <Perdente> lol
[07:39] <eck> yeah, if you want a more complex mail setup with multiple postfix servers you should do sasl auth instead of doing ip based relay access
[07:39] <rao> Hello to everyone
[07:39] <Perdente> hey rao
[07:39] <r_a_f> ello
[07:39] <HorizonXP> no one's running on a Core 2?
[07:40] <BarlowBrad> i just installed ubuntu and my wireless usb adapter (belkin G) recognizes my wireless network, and lets me put in the network key and everything, but it does not actually connect to the router... any pointers?
[07:40] <epod> HorizonXP, what about it?
[07:40] <rao> is posible to change the contents of fstab depending dhcp-ip?
[07:40] <HorizonXP> epod: i just wanted to know how ppl were doing with it
[07:40] <KingJere> I think the fish protocol in konqueror is the greatest thing since sliced bread. Is there an equivelant in nautilus?
[07:40] <epod> HorizonXP, works fine
[07:40] <shiftplusone> hey... in fstab.... how come instead of dev/hd... there's UUID=... is there a point to that and is it ok to replace back with /dev/hd....?
[07:40] <Perdente> BarlowBrad: did you put in the right encryption
[07:40] <eck> KingJere: what is the fish protocol
[07:40] <Noric> How i can cange my language and keep my channel family friendly ?
[07:40] <Jordan_U> KingJere, Is that for connecting to ssh?
[07:41] <HorizonXP> epod: you using 64bit
[07:41] <HorizonXP> ?
[07:41] <epod> HorizonXP, no, 32
[07:41] <eck> shiftplusone: the reason for that is the kernel is changed now so the device names changed
[07:41] <BarlowBrad> perdente: thank you, and yes i did
[07:41] <eck> shiftplusone: it's because of the libata patches
[07:41] <KingJere> it basically does ftp over ssh. It treats the files as local though. Kinda
[07:41] <Noric> Who speak Russian ??? hey NAROD !
[07:41] <eck> shiftplusone: you should just use the UUID so you don't need to worry about the device name
[07:41] <Perdente> awsome!
[07:41] <KingJere> you do fish://name@host and tada!
[07:41] <shiftplusone> Noric, privet.
[07:42] <rao> for example your ip is  192.168.10.10 then fstab says: server:/home/192.168.10.10 /home nfs ro,noauto,intr  0 0
[07:42] <eck> KingJere: yeah, just go to places and then connect to server
[07:42] <HorizonXP> epod: ah ok... i'm running with 64bit, and it's pretty darn fast.... have you seen any apps use both cores yet?
[07:42] <shiftplusone> eck, kind of hard to work with since UUID=asdlkfh243oihweflk means nothing to me and when there are 20 things mounted... gets all O_o
[07:42] <eck> KingJere: there's an ssh option that will do sftp
[07:42] <Noric> shiftplusone Zdravstvyi 4yvi
[07:42] <eck> shiftplusone: you can put comments in the file :-)
[07:42] <rao> for example your ip is  192.168.10.12 then fstab says: server:/home/192.168.10.12/home nfs ro,noauto,intr  0 0
[07:42] <Noric> kak pista' v pm ?
[07:42] <pizza_fan> would anyone know how to read and write to files that are owned by the root?
[07:42] <KingJere> also you can right click those remote files and open with local app.
[07:43] <Perdente> ^_^
[07:43] <eck> KingJere: i believe that nautilus works the same way, not entirely sure though
[07:43] <shiftplusone> eck... well thanks... so how do I find out the UUID of say hda10?
[07:43] <eck> pizza_fan: you need to become root
[07:43] <pizza_fan> how?
[07:43] <Perdente> ohhh
[07:43] <Perdente> haha
[07:43] <Perdente> sudo -i
[07:43] <Perdente> then enter your pass
[07:43] <eck> shiftplusone: the command is vol_id
[07:43] <rao> it's mean fstab change with a change of ip
[07:44] <KingJere> I used to actually install konqueror in gnome just for that reason.
[07:44] <rao> ??
[07:44] <Perdente> pizza_fan: lol I thought you just wanted to share with everyone how to do it
[07:44] <shiftplusone> eck, ok  thanks again. 'night
[07:44] <pizza_fan> ok thanks i' m new to this
[07:44] <rao> Is possible to do that?
[07:44] <Perdente> for some reason I read would anyone like to know...
[07:44] <pizza_fan> lol
[07:44] <Perdente> hehe
[07:45] <BarlowBrad> perdante: is there anywhere you can direct me to that might give me insight into my issue?
[07:45] <Perdente> sorry a lot has come up can you repeat the issue?
[07:46] <Perdente> wireless right?
[07:46] <BarlowBrad> yeah
[07:46] <BarlowBrad> perdante: i just installed ubuntu and my wireless usb adapter (belkin G) recognizes my wireless network, and lets me put in the network key and everything, but it does not actually connect to the router... any pointers?
[07:47] <Perdente> now, does the server you want to connect to use a wep key?
[07:47] <BarlowBrad> yes
[07:47] <Perdente> ok and what encryption did you put your password under?
[07:47] <insmod__> how do i set the date --- date -s doesn't work in sudo
[07:47] <HorizonXP> hey, what's the better virtualization software?
[07:47] <Perdente> 64, 128
[07:47] <HorizonXP> qemu, vmware-server, or virtualbox?
[07:47] <BarlowBrad> the router uses 128, and i used 128
[07:47] <Nutubuntu> Is there a smaller Feisty install than the standard desktop .iso? I thought I read somewhere about an internet-based install...
[07:47] <FreeFull> xen
[07:47] <KingJere> BarlowBrad: are you running fiesty?
[07:48] <BarlowBrad> kingjere: yes
[07:48] <BarlowBrad> i tried both "open system" and "shared key" for the hexadecimal option
[07:49] <BarlowBrad> (wasn't quite sure what the difference was
[07:49] <eck> Nutubuntu: yeah, there's a net install somewhere on the ftp mirror
[07:49] <eck> i have a link, lemme find it
[07:49] <Perdente> hmmm
[07:49] <FreeFull> HorizonXP: If you want emulation, QEmu is free, VMware is good and I dont know about virtualbox. For virtualization use xen or vmware
[07:49] <KingJere> I can't remember the bug number but my belkin card strips the last letter off of the essid in iwconfig.
[07:49] <Perdente> i'm thinking it's just that I want to tinker with mine so I'll be out for a sec
[07:49] <eck> http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/ubuntu/dists/feisty/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/
[07:49] <BarlowBrad> hmm... interesting
[07:50] <Nutubuntu> eek - t/y again
[07:50] <unagi> anyone have a problem with sleep and hibernate?
[07:50] <HorizonXP> FreeFull: What's xen? and how's the USB device support on any of them?
[07:50] <KingJere> just run iwconfig at a command line to see if this is the prob.
[07:50] <Nutubuntu> s/eek/eck ^
[07:50] <KingJere> BTW it didn't do this in edgy.
[07:51] <FreeFull> HorizonXP: QEmu, VMware and Xen should be fine with USB
[07:51] <HorizonXP> FreeFull: I need something that will allow the virutal OS direct access to the USB port... VMWare Server doesn't, because it couldn't detect this FPGA board i was working with
[07:51] <Perdente> BarlowBrad: I'm not sure exactly, you're sure its not on the network's side?
[07:51] <BarlowBrad> kingjere: would you recommend me using edgy instead of feisty?
[07:51] <FreeFull> HorizonXP: You have to configure VMware to get usb
[07:51] <eck> HorizonXP: afaik none of the virtualization solutions give guest operating systems direct hardware access -- the hardware has to be accessed by the host os
[07:51] <KingJere> Not just for that reason.
[07:51] <HorizonXP> FreeFull: Ok, I might try QEmu.. last question: Core 2's, what's the VT option that's in it?
[07:52] <KingJere> IF thats the prob theres an easy fix
[07:52] <BarlowBrad> perdente: i connected just fine to it with xp using all the same options
[07:52] <HorizonXP> eck: so if Ubuntu doesn't detect it, neither will the guest OS?
[07:52] <eck> HorizonXP: correct
[07:52] <HorizonXP> eck: that's no good. the reason I'm doing it is because there's no linux driver for the board i'm working with
[07:53] <eck> there's no usb driver???
[07:53] <HorizonXP> eck: So i'm stuck with dual-booting?
[07:53] <FreeFull> HorizonXP: In VMware ubuntu doesnt actually need drivers for the device for it to work on the virtual machine
[07:53] <Nutubuntu> Drat ... I keep burning Feisty coasters ... may have to go to that netboot version :/
[07:53] <HorizonXP> eck: not for the FPGA board
[07:53] <Cowfood> is anyone hosting there own mail server?
[07:54] <HorizonXP> FreeFull: You sure? maybe you're right, i didn't know that I had to install USB support for VMWare
[07:54] <FreeFull> HorizonXP: You need to configure VMware to use usb trough
[07:54] <Perdente> BarlowBrad: ok, go to terminal and type in iwconfig eth1 (for some reson I can't see pm's)
[07:54] <FreeFull> HorizonXP: I'll search in VMware online manuals
[07:55] <pOtTs> net
[07:55] <Mr28> someone is asking me if my connection is 24/7   Am I being engineered here?
[07:55] <Perdente> BarlowBrad?
[07:55] <Nutubuntu> Would a Feisty install DVD work? My CDs seem to be unhappy with the size of the iso. Or could I build a smaller (customized) iso? I don't mind not having OpenOffice.org installed by the CD, for example; can always install it later
[07:56] <BarlowBrad> perdente: i actually just re-installed xp over feisty (got kinda frustrated)
[07:56] <FreeFull> HorizonXP: http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=3862823&sliceId=2&docTypeID=DT_KB_1_1&dialogID=9713833&stateId=0%200%209709763
[07:56] <eck> Nutubuntu: if you have a fast internet connection, i would just do the net install
[07:56] <eck> it will take less time than downloading the dvd anyway
[07:56] <BarlowBrad> perdente: so i'm asking for next time now... heh... :-/
[07:56] <Perdente> ahh, that would do it, well, sorry
[07:56] <RoC_MM> how do you do a ubuntu netinstall?
[07:56] <gloin_> nnect
[07:56] <HorizonXP> FreeFull: All right, I'm going to give this a shot
[07:56] <Perdente> haha, well I was gonna say look at the iwconfig eth1 in the monitor to see what it said it was doing with your wireless
[07:56] <eck> RoC_MM: there's an iso with a net installer
[07:56] <Perdente> but....
[07:56] <HorizonXP> FreeFull: Nothing to lose anyway
[07:57] <RoC_MM> cool
[07:57] <Mr28> /raw stats p
[07:57] <Mr28> /STATS p
[07:57] <BarlowBrad> i did look at it a bit (i googled the forums and tried to fix it on my own)
[07:57] <FreeFull> HorizonXP: After you will be done usb should work with VMware Workstation
[07:58] <Nutubuntu> eck - point taken. Do I burn that tiny .iso image and  ... let it do the rest? - or do I burn the entire contents of that directory? I wasn't clear what to d/l
[07:58] <eck> Nutubuntu: if you are doing a cd install, just burn the iso
[07:58] <Perdente> oh ok, but no luck
[07:58] <eck> the other things are if you want to do a net install from some other media (like your hdd)
[07:58] <Nutubuntu> eck - will do. I take it that the iso knows where to go for everything else ...
[07:58] <HorizonXP> FreeFull: What about VMWare Server?
[07:59] <Nutubuntu> Can I set up RAID1 partitions during this install?
[07:59] <Perdente> well it does sound fishy and I wonder if it was having problems with the wireless card, but its hard to say right now, would it return an error or would it say it was connected and not load anything?
[07:59] <knoppix> i want to build LFS on ubuntu is it possible
[07:59] <BarlowBrad> right, no luck... another question though... what can i do to prevent ubuntu from erasing my xp install on my second hard drive next time?
[07:59] <FreeFull> HorizonXP: WMware Server should work too
[07:59] <eck> Nutubuntu: i don't remember, you might need to know the address of the mirror
[08:00] <eck> BarlowBrad: just don't reformat the xp partition
[08:00] <BarlowBrad> it would try to connect, keep saying "waiting for network key", then eventually go to "no connected"
[08:00] <RoC_MM> BarlowBrad, on the install summary screen it always says exactly what it will do...there are checkboxes on the screen right before that too on what to format or not
[08:00] <Perdente> ohhh
[08:00] <Perdente> oh
[08:00] <Appakot> Jordan_U, sorry i was afk for a while, my ipod is in FAT32, do i need to reformat it?
[08:00] <Perdente> lol
[08:00] <Nutubuntu> Hm ... okay ... I keep thinking it'd be smoother working from the alternate install ... if I could only burn ti successfully
[08:00] <BarlowBrad> ubuntu didn't actually overwrite it, it just corrupted the boot sector so it won't load
[08:01] <Perdente> ummm well thats what worked for mine, so you're saying you would partition off some of the ntfs to ext3 for linux but it would convert the whole hard drive?
[08:01] <Perdente> oh
[08:01] <eck> BarlowBrad: oh, just use grub
 no
[08:01] <Perdente> yeah, that's a safer bet
[08:01] <eck> BarlowBrad: i'm not really sure how well that ntloader thing works, grub is a safer bet
[08:01] <HorizonXP> FreeFull: Phew, ok cool
[08:02] <RoC_MM> I doin't see this net install ISO
[08:02] <eck> RoC_MM: http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/ubuntu/dists/feisty/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/
[08:02] <ant-> botta bing
[08:02] <eck> it's on all the mirrors, it's just not linked to
[08:02] <Appakot> insmod, what should i do so that i can sync it with syncropated or banshee?
[08:02] <Perdente> botta... boom?
[08:03] <saeed> hello
[08:04] <barnydan> Hello everyone.  I want to capture video, when I went into kino it didn't find my Firewire 1394 device.  So I wen to the ubuntu site and found this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToCaptureDigitalVideo.  Now when I try to run "./configure" it says "checking for C compiler default output file name... configure error: C compiler cannot creat executables See 'config.log' for more details.   So I cat config.log and see some pat
[08:04] <barnydan> hs that say unknown and "usr/bin/ld: crtl.o: No such file: No such file or directory".    Do I need to install something to correct this?
[08:04] <unagi__> anyone have issues with sleep or hibernate?
[08:04] <saeed> I am new to ubunto but having lots of problem can any one help?
[08:04] <FreeFull> saeed: what are your problems?
[08:04] <Perdente> what's up saeed?
[08:04] <saeed> I can't play MP3 files?
 i just use gtkpod and amorak or you can just write the fstab first
 i just use gtkpod and amorak or you can just write the fstab
[08:05] <saeed> thanks freefull and perpnets
[08:05] <BarlowBrad> grub... is kinda like bootcamp for linux/xp instead of OS X/xp?
[08:05] <saeed> and also could not run my linksys wireless adaptor
[08:05] <barnydan> Anyone know what I can do to solve my issue?
[08:05] <Perdente> am I perpnets?
[08:05] <BarlowBrad> perpnets... lol
[08:06] <saeed> sorry perdente
[08:06] <NeoGeo64> how do i delete the file search history in gnome
[08:06] <saeed> any help?
[08:06] <RoC_MM> Thanks eck
[08:06] <ant-> barnydan, i've had that problem a long time ago... let me think/research
[08:06] <Perdente> lol that's cool, so ok, what are you trying to play them in?
[08:06] <RoC_MM> BarlowBrad, yes, functionally.
[08:06] <Perdente> haha yeah
[08:06] <eck> NeoGeo64: you can probably find where it's stored if you grep for the search string in ~/.gnome2 or ~/.local
[08:06] <saeed> I try to play MP3 but it is not playing any way
[08:06] <n2diy> Naisenu: are you still waiting?
[08:07] <barnydan> ant- thanks.
[08:07] <BarlowBrad> RoC_MM: Thanks
[08:07] <Naisenu> n2diy, not especially, but if you found info sure
[08:07] <Appakot> insmod, whats the fstab? im using amorak, does that sync the ipod, or do i need something else?
[08:07] <ds0n> saeed, without any details it is hard to help you.
[08:07] <twikesh> !mp3 | saeed\
[08:07] <ubotu> saeed\: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[08:07] <Perdente> ok, so correct me if I'm wrong on this guys, but I think you need to install an mp3 codec for whatever you are using to play the mp3
[08:08] <unagi__> !hibernate
[08:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hibernate - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:08] <NeoGeo64> How large of a HDD can ext3 support?  Is ext3 the best for general desktop use?
[08:08] <eck> uh, you need to install an mp3 codec for the library that the audio program uses to play sound
ya in the area that configures the media dir browse till the dir it use works
[08:08] <FreeFull> unagi: I trough hibernation is default on in ubuntu
[08:08] <n2diy> Naisenu: ok, still working on it, alt+shift, XXX is producing stuff for me
[08:08] <n2diy> 
[08:08] <Perdente> ok good
[08:08] <Perdente> I wasn't off
[08:09] <Supermodified> hey, i know ubuntu comes with gcc, but does it come with all the C libraries too?
[08:09] <Naisenu> n2diy, you can leave me a PM if you find something
[08:09] <Appakot> insmod, hahaha what? in lamens terms please?
[08:09] <saeed> I try to download real player but not able to install it
 <Appakot>fstab is the file system table
[08:09] <Naisenu> i'm usually on this network anyhow
[08:09] <eck> Supermodified: i think you need to install them
[08:09] <Perdente> so for instance, if you try to play an mp3 in movie player, it will ask if you want to install the codecs and then you can say yes and that's one down
[08:09] <Appakot> insmod, in amarok?
[08:09] <eck> Supermodified: just get build-essential
[08:09] <eck> Supermodified: you'll probably also want manpages-dev
[08:09] <Supermodified> can i get it in Add/Remove?
[08:09] <n2diy> Naisenu: But not what I'm expecting, or it should be. But I'm using a Dvorak keyboard, so that could be a problem.
[08:10] <bullgard4> What is meant with 'mixer tracks' in Gnome main menu System > Preferences > Sound > (Sound preferences tool) > General > Default Mixer Tracks?
ya you can but you may have to do it everytime if you don't set fstab
[08:10] <saeed> perdente it says file not match or something like this and did not play any thing
[08:10] <eck> Supermodified: i'm not sure, i'm sure there's some sort of dev option that you can install
[08:10] <Perdente> ok and you said you tried it with real player
[08:10] <Naisenu> n2diy, American using Dvorak or from afar where it's standard?
[08:10] <n2diy> Naisenu: Roger on the PM, I'd rather share it here.
[08:10] <FreeFull> Appakot: fstab is in /etc/fstab
[08:11] <saeed> no I said I down loaded real playere as well but I could not able to install on my system I really don't know how to istall thing in ubunto
[08:11] <n2diy> Naisenu: It was easier to learn Dvorak, than Qwerty.
[08:11] <Appakot> FreeFull, insmod, sorry im incredibly confused.....do i have to type something in the terminal?
[08:11] <FreeFull> n2diy: exept if you know querty already
[08:12] <FreeFull> Appakot: you have to type 'sudo gedit /etc/fstab'
[08:12] <n2diy> FreeFull: yes, but that wasn't the case.
[08:12] <kurizocan7> Anyone know if Lexmark printers (x6150 in particular) are compatible w/ Fiesty?
 ? do you know how to configure amarok?
[08:13] <Perdente> saeed, ok well lets start with the basics, then we'll work up, ok, do you have movie player on your comp?
[08:13] <bsund> hey does anyone know about a good linux book to start with. to learn the basics of the system and simple scripts of sh/bash?
[08:13] <saeed> no
[08:13] <Appakot> insmod, not a clue in the world
 settings / configure
[08:15] <saeed> I downloaded real player but could not able to istall that
[08:15] <dawn_chorus> bsund, LInux pocket guide
[08:15] <Perdente> huh that's odd, i thought it came default. ok, what music apps do you have on your computer, if you want a good one, I would suggest amarok and I think that actually comes with an mp3 codec
[08:15] <Appakot> FreeFull, insmod, ok im in fstab now...now what do i do?
[08:15] <eck> bsund: i liked the o'reilly owl book
[08:15] <twikesh> saeed: does the file look like RealPlayer10GOLD.bin or something like that?
[08:15] <eck> it's some condensed unix book, i'm not sure what the title is
[08:15] <ablabla> i need to be identified to join a certain channel?? wtf is this?
[08:15] <Perdente> ok well as for real player, when you went to download it, did you pick a version that said linux or did you download what it told you to that could maybe be for windows?
[08:15] <ablabla> how do i get indetified?
[08:15] <bsund> dawn, eck: k i'll check em out :)
[08:15] <eck> bsund: the linux system administration handbook by evi nemeth is also good
[08:15] <saeed> no it say for linux
[08:15] <ablabla> sry for the not ubuntu related
[08:15] <ablabla> question
[08:15] <J-_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25930/ check this out please, I recently installed checkgmail about 2 months ago, and up until just recently I get this. I tried to reinstall which it still doesn't work. no dependency problems whatsoever.
[08:15] <FreeFull> bsund: for learning shell scripts go to http://www.linuxcommand.org/writing_shell_scripts.php
[08:16] <saeed> it is saved on my hard disc but could not install
[08:16] <Perdente> ok one sec, I'll get it
 ubuntu uses an auto config (hotplug if u will) it puts the device in avail areas -- the mediaplayer search and if it is not there then you tell it where it is in settings configure -- if you need the devices to allwas go there add it to fstab
[08:16] <RoC_MM> bsund, there is a document called the "bash shell scripting" guide...google it...also there is linuxcommands.org...O'Reilly sells lots of good books too.
[08:16] <n2diy> Naisenu: I'm at a loss, ctrl-alt, +xxx is giving me extended characters, but not the right ones?
[08:16] <twikesh> saeed: what folder did you download it to?
[08:17] <Appakot> insmod, so i need to add a mountpoint?
[08:17] <RoC_MM> bsund, http://tldp.org/LDP/sag/html/index.html  (Linux System Administrator's Guide)
 well when u plug it in ubuntu put it somewhere you neen to tell it where
[08:18] <insmod> need
[08:18] <myusrnm> hey if anyone has access to a .edu site where you can upload stuff, could you please upload something that says "it is completely illegal to drop a students grade by 20% just because he did not use internal citations"  ? IT is a matter of FAILING or PASSING a class.
[08:18] <saeed> it is in home folder
[08:18] <bsund> RoC_MM: ye that one looks badass thanks :D
[08:18] <Perdente> ok and is it a .tar.gz?
[08:18] <eck> myusrnm: that isn't illegal
[08:18] <Myrtti> myusrnm: that's a bit offtopic for the channel, don't you think?
[08:18] <Appakot> insmod, ok so what do i need to do?
[08:19] <Perdente> oh no its a .bin
[08:19] <saeed> and the file name is RealPlayer10GOLD.bin
 click settings
[08:19] <kurizocan7> Anyone know if Lexmark printers (x6150 in particular) are compatible w/ Feisty? ... or where to begin looking? thanks
[08:19] <twikesh> saeed: the problem is the file is not executable. First, open a Terminal (Applications > Accessories > Terminal)
[08:19] <n2diy> Naisenu: And the keyboard layout shouldn't matter, a character code is a character code, no?
 configure amarok
[08:19] <EuRoO> i though this channel was venezolano
[08:20] <Appakot> insmod, ok im in that window, and then?
[08:20] <eck> kurizocan7: linuxprinting.org
[08:20] <saeed> ok let me open terminal
 auto detect if not then just enter the mount point
[08:21] <Appakot> insmod, how do i find the mount point?
[08:21] <twikesh> saeed: then type (without the quotes) "chmod +x RealPlayer10GOLD.bin"
[08:21] <kurizocan7> thanks eck... i"m heading there now.
 ls /media
[08:21] <barnydan> ant- if your still researching, I think I got it already.
  it mounts everything in /media
[08:22] <myusrnm> i know it's not illegal, and i i'm on an ubuntu computer so it's not completely offtopic1
[08:22] <Myrtti> myusrnm: yes it is offtopic
[08:22] <eck> !topic > myusrnm
[08:22] <saeed> it is saying root@saeed:/home/saeed#
[08:22] <Appakot> insmod, so type in 'ls /media' is that correct?
  in a term
[08:22] <BarlowBrad> hey everyone... thanks for your help, especially perdente :)... i'll probably be back again sometime next week
[08:22] <NeoGeo64> wow i really like linux
[08:23] <Appakot> insmod, what do you mean, in a term?
[08:23] <BarlowBrad> giving ubuntu another shot :)
[08:23] <ant-> barnydan, was it binutils?
[08:23] <NeoGeo64> cant believe all of it is free
  not in amarok
[08:23] <twikesh> saeed: you should not be running as the root user
[08:23] <ant-> barnydan, its a dependency problem with gcc i know that
[08:23] <ant-> barnydan, i am having problems finding what you need though to fix it
[08:23] <barnydan> ant- had to install build-essential
  or load thumar -- it will know so will konqueror etc
[08:24] <ant-> barnydan, do you still get the error?
[08:24] <barnydan> ant- nope it all seems to have smoothy.  ra1394 is in /dev/ now
[08:24] <jakub_> can anyone tell me the name of program which allows me to convert DVD movie to .avi movie?
[08:24] <barnydan> ant- raw1394 that is
[08:24] <eazyass> is there any way to get ubuntu to install from cd on a machine with 128 megs of ram?
[08:24] <ant-> barnydan, good stuff
[08:25] <Flannel> eazyass: Get the alternate CD
[08:25] <Myrtti> eazyass: use alternate
[08:25] <eazyass> ok
[08:25] <barnydan> ant- thanks for looking for me.  here is the site I found the info.  http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-176052.html
[08:25] <Myrtti> and you might want to consider xubuntu
[08:25] <Perdente_> ah ha!
[08:25] <Perdente_> saeed you still there
[08:25] <Myrtti> eazyass: ^
[08:25] <eazyass> ok
[08:25] <eazyass> thanks
[08:26] <dawn_chorus> xubuntu rocks.
[08:26] <Perdente_> saeed?
[08:26] <eazyass> i just inherited a pII 400
[08:26] <eazyass> and want some simple linux install on it
[08:26] <eazyass> so i can get to some good ol microchip programmin
[08:26] <jakub_> can anyone tell me the name of program which allows me to convert DVD movie to .avi movie?
[08:26] <gerro> dawn_chorus: I just hope fluxbuntu is pretty nice :)
[08:26] <Perdente_> saeed?
[08:26] <Perdente_> noooo
[08:27] <dawn_chorus> gerro, i too am looking forward to fluxbuntu.
[08:27] <Tom47> jakub google is yr friend http://news.softpedia.com/news/Convert-DVD-Video-to-AVI-with-Avidemux-54002.shtml
[08:27] <twikesh> jakub_: AcidRip, dvd::Rip, K9Copy, etc...
[08:28] <gerro> dawn_chorus: I'm trying to setup an icewm comp but don't have much experience with it :(
[08:28] <ant-> gerro, flux is sweet
[08:28] <dawn_chorus> gerro, what's icewm?
[08:28] <Perdente_> saeed...
[08:29] <gerro> dawn_chorus: its the lightest window manager there is besides those ones that are just for multiple terminal sessions displayed in X
[08:29] <saeed> yes pernete nothing had happened same probelme
[08:29] <Perdente_> ok
[08:29] <Perdente_> cool
[08:29] <Perdente_> check this out :-) : http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_Multimedia_Player_.28RealPlayer_10.29
[08:29] <ant-> gerro, i like my flux, nice and simple, http://img02.picoodle.com/img/img02/8/5/1/f_Screenshotm_4efb5bb.png
[08:29] <Perdente_> I know, I know
[08:30] <saeed> I go to teminal then I typed what he said but nothing happened
[08:30] <Perdente_> sudo apt-get install realplay?
[08:30] <twikesh> saeed: you typed "chmod +x RealPlayer10GOLD.bin"?\
[08:30] <saeed> it really pissed me off as I am trying to istal thing but it is not leting me do any thing
[08:31] <saeed> yes twikesh
[08:31] <Perdente_> yeah, I would see why you would be angry, but just know that the site you download realplayer from, while it says its for linux, if you look at the bottom it is specifically for red hat, which is just one unix system and I don't know if that makes a difference, but you don't see a lot of .bin files being used for install in ubuntu
[08:32] <Perdente_> ok, so it doesn't do anything if you try to install from terminal
[08:32] <twikesh> saeed: then type (without quotes) "./RealPlayer10GOLD.bin"
[08:32] <bullgard4> What is meant with 'mixer tracks' in Gnome main menu System > Preferences > Sound > (Sound preferences tool) > General > Default Mixer Tracks?
[08:33] <mikeyhatesms> INSTALLATION HELP PLEASE.  is masteryoda still in the house?  i figured out how to reach the buttons at the bottom of the time setup page on installation.  right clicked on top and bottom panels and reoriented them to the left and right side of screen, which opened up my window enough to reach the buttons to continue.  BUT:
[08:33] <saeed> it is doing sothing let me see
[08:34] <Perdente_> ok,
[08:34] <twikesh> saeed: you should be able to follow the on-screen directions now and hopefully it will install
[08:34] <gerro> ant- the pic looks awesome, and what is that monitor program on side called?
[08:34] <moDumass> hey all, so i restarted my maching and got this "your machine needs to restart in order for some updates to install.... blablabla" and well, this usually goes fine, but now i restarted and got past the progress bar and now im facing "xorfg.conf is broken" how do i reinstall my graphics drivers? do i have to?
[08:34] <Jordan_U> mikeyhatesms, What problem are you having exactly?
[08:35] <eck> bullgard4: i think that refers to which hardware device/sound subsystem should do the sound mixing
[08:35] <DrkCodeman> Jordan_U, can i ask you for a favor?
[08:35] <saeed> it is saying that istaltion is complete let me check it is working
[08:35] <Perdente_> ok
[08:35] <gerro> moDumass: if you manually installed graphics card drivers then yes you will need to reinstall with every kernel update
[08:35] <Jordan_U> DrkCodeman, Sure... What?
[08:35] <moDumass> gero, um, how would i do that?
[08:35] <DrkCodeman> Jordan_U, can you possibly put it in the works to include hamachi to a package?
[08:35] <eck> bullgard4: sound mixing refers to two or more sounds playing at the same time
[08:35] <disinterested> modumbass nvidia?
[08:36] <gerro> moDumass: what is your card? show me the line about it in lspci command
[08:36] <Jordan_U> DrkCodeman, I am not an Ubuntu developer :)
[08:36] <moDumass> gerro,  did it ages ago and cannot rmember how i did it, disinterested yeh nvidia
[08:36] <DrkCodeman> aww
[08:36] <moDumass> fx5950ultra
[08:36] <ant-> gerro, its called conky
[08:36] <DrkCodeman> Jordan_U, any of them stop in here?
[08:36] <ant-> gerro, it takes some setting up to get it how you want it, but its worth it
[08:36] <Jordan_U> DrkCodeman, You could file a wishlist bug though
[08:36] <mikeyhatesms> Jordan_U:  i am confused about partitioning, i think i almost blew all my files because feisty jumped to a point where she was showing a guided partitioning of 20 gigs, which is my entire harddrive, and when i got to the migration page, she said that there were NO files or docs suitable for migration, and that iff i coninued i would lose all data previously stored on the partitions
[08:36] <DrkCodeman> yeah true
[08:36] <moDumass> gerro, nvidia fx5950ultra
[08:36] <Perdente_> saeed, if it works, don't forget to also do the steps:     * To avoid issues of flickering or screen going blank when switching windows, goto
[08:36] <Perdente_>           o RealPlayer 10 -> Tools -> Preferences -> Hardware -> Uncheck XVideo
[08:37] <Perdente_>     * To avoid issues with sound
[08:37] <Perdente_>           o Make sure you have ALSA OSS driver.
[08:37] <Perdente_> sudo apt-get install alsa-oss
[08:37] <Perdente_> then edit the startup script (/usr/lib/realplay-10.0.8/realplay) and changed line 73 from
[08:37] <Perdente_> $REALPLAYBIN $@
[08:37] <Perdente_> to
[08:37] <Perdente_> aoss $REALPLAYBIN $@

[08:37] <Perdente_> I learned something today...
[08:38] <klobster> trying to chroot into my (broken) root dir from the LiveCD, but it segfaults; any ideas?
[08:38] <eck> klobster: what segfaults?
[08:38] <gerro> moDumass: follow the instructions it has and see if it can tell you any more information. One time I screwed up xorg.conf by sticking a non plain text document there (don't know how that happened) and parser messed up real bad
[08:38] <mikeyhatesms> Jordan_U: also i don't know how to get to this chatroom from firefox, so when i ran into this prob had to abort install and bootleg up xp to get seamonkey which has the direct connect to chatzilla
[08:38] <klobster> eck: chroot
[08:38] <Jordan_U> moDumass, The nice thing about installing from the restricted driver manager is that you don't have to re-install when you get kernel upgrades ( it is also the officially supported way to do it )
[08:39] <norealgravity> im back!
[08:39] <Perdente_> that paste ubuntu page is pretty sweet
[08:39] <gerro> moDumass: if it says its missing a daemon then yes you will need to reinstall manually
[08:39] <pwngasm> is it possible to password a folder in ubuntu?
[08:39] <eck> klobster: the chroot command runs a shell right? are you sure it isn't the shell that's broken
[08:39] <bsund> bad thing with all dists except LFS and such is that if you do something on your own your screwed :(
[08:39] <ant-> !chmod | pwngasm
[08:39] <ubotu> pwngasm: The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[08:39] <eck> bsund: same with lfs :-)
[08:40] <kurizocan7> Found the right printer driver but wrong language. Is there a strict rule for sticking to one language (i.e. English) for drivers?
[08:40] <Jordan_U> mikeyhatesms, You can get on IRC using Gaim, which comes on the Ubuntu LiveCD, you can also install xchat which is made specifically for IRC ( you can install small applications into RAM while running the LiveCD )
[08:40] <bsund> eck: maybe it is hehe havent tried it in a few years
[08:40] <eck> either way, if you do something on your own you better know what it is and how to fix it if you break something
[08:40] <vecina> What does it mean when a package is "automatiocally held back" ? should i not install it/
[08:40] <gerro> ant-: ah thanks that should be helpful
[08:40] <klobster> eck: chroot will run any command with "your dir" as it's root dir.  any command segfaults, even ones I know don't exist
[08:40] <drpwn> When trying to install beryl-manager I am told that dependencies are not being met, what can I try to fix this?

[08:41] <norealgravity> actualandrew here is what happened. i hit f10 to boot into boot options and my system recovery came up. :0    so i stopped it and rebooted noramlly into windows. unfortunately i installed wubi about a month ago and it didnt work now i cant access my boot options screen
[08:41] <mikeyhatesms> ...don't know how to get to this chatroom from firefox, so when i ran into this prob had to abort install and bootleg up xp to get seamonkey which has the direct connect to chatzilla
[08:41] <Jordan_U> moDumass, To get back working X so you can more easily sort this out run this command in a terminal and choose "nv" as the driver, *not* nvidia : sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh
[08:41] <eck> klobster: yeah, but when you chroot don't you chroot into a shell in the other environment?
[08:41] <bsund> imagine if there was someway to have a "deb configure" and "deb make" and it would be np :P
[08:41] <eck> i think it defaults to /bin/sh
[08:41] <mapez> how do I do a timed shut down?
[08:41] <mapez> i want to turn my computer off in 30 minutes
[08:42] <ant-> gerro, i havent tried fluxbuntu, but i use regular ubuntu and sudo apt-get install fluxbox so if i wanna go back to gnome i can
[08:42] <gerro> mapez: shutdown -h #
[08:42] <aswed83> Alguien de Mxico???
[08:42] <eck> klobster: try running chroot with another shell
[08:42] <Nutubuntu> !es
[08:42] <Jordan_U> mikeyhatesms, Did you choose guided partitioning from the beginning and did you choose to keep your windows partition and just re-size it?
[08:42] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[08:42] <klobster> eck: yeah that is true.  you think /bin/sh is broken?  it wasn't before?
[08:42] <norealgravity> now i cant acees my boot potions menu. :( how to fix?
[08:42] <aswed83> Alguien de Morelia Michoacan???
[08:42] <MISTERTibbs> mikeyhatesms: slow down there bub!  you almost whacked your drive
[08:42] <eck> klobster: e.g. chroot /bin/dash
[08:42] <mapez> gerro so shutdown -h then # is my time variable in?
[08:42] <eck> or whatever the other shell is
[08:42] <Perdente_> ahh I'm out!
[08:42] <bsund> !
[08:42] <Perdente_> adios
[08:42] <bsund> :(
[08:42] <Perdente_> but its bedtime...
[08:42] <bsund> free beer in here !
[08:42] <Perdente_> huh, nightshift?
[08:42] <moDumass> thanks
[08:43] <bsund> free beer as in free spech!
[08:43] <eck> klobster: you can also strace it and if the shell is corrupted you can copy the live cd shell into the old environment
[08:43] <gerro> ant-: I was thinking about doing something similar with xubuntu to setup icewm, my sister getting a laptop so working out a kool theme and all to let her try linux
[08:43] <klobster> eck: segfault
[08:43] <Perdente_> well this was my first day helping out here, it was fun though
[08:43] <bsund> it's free as long you pay for it :(
[08:43] <bsund> but you can drink it how you want ;)
[08:43] <MISTERTibbs> free beer? where???
[08:43] <Nutubuntu> Would an onboard 6150 be adequate to run beryl?
[08:43] <Perdente_> got 3 down, now 402,392,393,398,183,302,392,595,001 to go
[08:43] <saeed> thanks I had real player but tell me one thing will be having same difficulty to install any thing?
[08:43] <jlulian38> no one
[08:43] <jlulian38> EVER shutdown -r now's
[08:44] <bsund> saeed: no
[08:44] <jlulian38> EVER
[08:44] <norealgravity> there should be ubuntu meetings with free beer
[08:44] <Perdente_> wait, what are you trying to say saeed?
[08:44] <bsund> saeed: most stuff is very easy to install
[08:44] <twikesh> saeed: Use Add/Remove Programs - it's ridiculously easy
[08:44] <drpwn> which depositories should I add for beryl-manager on edgy? A link would be fine
[08:44] <ant-> free beer would get me to come to a meeting
[08:44] <Perdente_> oh got it
[08:44] <drpwn> repos*
[08:44] <Jordan_U> Nutubuntu, Is that a relatively ( past few years ) new intel card? ( I don't know version numbers )
[08:44] <kurizocan7> Found a printer driver but wrong language. Is there a strict rule for sticking to one language (i.e. English) for drivers?
[08:44] <MISTERTibbs> the best ubuntu meetings do have free beer!
[08:44] <eck> kurizocan7: just install it and find out :-)
[08:45] <gerro> mapez: yeah something like that, you can also set it to reboot
[08:45] <eck> kurizocan7: i imagine that it will work
[08:45] <Perdente_> no, most of the time, go to system, administration and synaptic package manager, a lot of programs are on there and you hit the box and hit apply and its now on your comp
[08:45] <aswed83> How can I do install a new agp card??
[08:45] <mapez> alright yeah, have people sleeping beside my computer -H is halt that will just shut it down correct?
[08:45] <saeed> like my linksys wirless adoter for my note pad is not installed and I don't know how to istall it I downloaded drivers but ...... might need some more help
[08:45] <bsund> saeed: thing is that real doesnt want to have there programs in the same way most of the linux program is.. they wont let it be in the add/remove program in ubuntu for example
[08:45] <mapez> shutdown -H +40
[08:45] <Nutubuntu> Jordan_U - sorry, I was unclear. Onboard video, NVidia chipset
[08:45] <eck> mapez: it should be documented in the shutdown man page
[08:46] <Perdente_> as for the wireless adapter, what's your wireless card?
[08:46] <saeed> linksys WPC54G
[08:46] <kurizocan7> eck:  I'm all for exploring but you're serious right? here it goes
[08:46] <xenex> I installed this theme, http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Human-Squared?content=40544 -- I want to go back to the rounded theme but I don't know how. I think it overwrote the rounded theme.
[08:46] <Perdente_> well I could stay up a little later, but I think I will grab a beer then, one sec
[08:46] <NeoGeo64> I have a zombie process running that wont die when i kill it
[08:46] <NeoGeo64> its netstat
[08:47] <pwngasm> is there a simple way, where i can password a file so when you try and access it it prompts for a pw?
[08:47] <ant-> mapez. -H will halt the computer, -h will power it down i think
[08:47] <eck> kurizocan7: sure, you should be able to uninstall it without too much difficulty
[08:47] <Nutubuntu> NeoGeo64 - running Firefox?
[08:47] <ds0n> Nutubuntu, i have beryl running on a geforce4 440 32mb card in a laptop, im sure yours will be fine.
[08:47] <Jordan_U> Nutubuntu, I would just try it, you can even try it from the LiveCD, just use restricted manager to enable the Nvidia drivers and System -> Preferences -> Desktop Effects to turn on the built in Compiz
[08:47] <NeoGeo64> yes
[08:47] <Perdente_> linksys should work, and what happens when you click on the two monitors on your top right corner?
[08:47] <NeoGeo64> wow i closed it and it went away, why does firefox need a zombie process
[08:48] <ompaul> aswed83, you put it in, boot, ctrl-alt-f2, login, run this command, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-org
[08:48] <eck> NeoGeo64: you can't kill a zombie process, that's why it is called a zombie
[08:48] <Nutubuntu> t/y dson, Jordan_U
[08:48] <Jordan_U> Nutubuntu, np
[08:48] <DrkCodeman> is there a package for firefox plugins?
[08:48] <ds0n> np gl man
[08:48] <NeoGeo64> how do i delete the file search history in gnome?
[08:48] <bsund> DrkCodeman: what do you mean?
[08:48] <NeoGeo64> im looking everywhere and cant find anything
[08:48] <mikeyhatesms> Jordan_U: sorry, phone rang... i don't really know if i made the right choices on the guided partition; at one point it told me that i had almmost 6 gigs of free space, and the partition it was gonna do was 89%; bbut i don't know 89% of what.  in the end it looked like it wsas gonna wipe out xp completely so i aborted
[08:48] <DrkCodeman> bsund, ie flash and video
[08:49] <Jordan_U> DrkCodeman, Only some, like flash and mplayer have packages for their firefox plugins
[08:49] <eck> NeoGeo64: grep your home directory
[08:49] <NeoGeo64> whats the command
[08:49] <eck> NeoGeo64: just grep for a term in the search history
[08:49] <eck> grep -R some_term the_path_to_grep
[08:49] <pwngasm> is there a simple way, where i can password a file so when you try and access it it prompts for a pw?
[08:49] <NeoGeo64> i dont know where the search history file is at
[08:49] <DrkCodeman> i can't seem to find a working flash plugin for x64
[08:49] <eck> try grepping ~/.gnome2 and ~/.local
[08:49] <eck> those are the most likely places
[08:49] <bsund> DrkCodeman: flash is easily installed just go to a website with flash and you'll get a popup asking if you want it
[08:49] <diabolix> does anyone know where the hidden space pictures in /usr/share/backgrounds came from?
[08:49] <Jordan_U> DrkCodeman, I'll grab the link from the wiki...
[08:50] <DrkCodeman> bsund, didnt happen to me
[08:50] <bsund> hmm
[08:50] <jakub_> kurwa
[08:50] <bsund> using feisty 7.04?
[08:50] <niru> is usplash a user splace or kernel splace image
[08:50] <eck> user space
[08:50] <NeoGeo64> theres nothing in my .local file except some text file defining default apps
[08:50] <Jordan_U> DrkCodeman, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[08:50] <bsund> it's a easy install anyway just some apt-get commands
[08:50] <NeoGeo64> in my /.gnome folder theres nothing
[08:50] <eck> no, ~/.gnome2
[08:51] <mikeyhatesms> Jordan_U: is there a way for me to get chatzilla up to come to this room from firefox in ubuntu during install?
[08:51] <xenex> How do I go back to the default Ubuntu metacity theme?
[08:51] <bsund> i have totem in firefox.. i does most things good but sometimes it wont work.. is there any other firefox plugin? i know mplayer has one is that better?
[08:51] <gerro> DrkCodeman: you have 4 choices, run 32 bit firefox with 32 bit linux flash, run firefox under wine and use win flash, use open source gnash to view simple flash movies only, or use x86 operating system on your 64 bit machine
[08:51] <pwngasm> is there a simple way, where i can password a file so when you try and access it it prompts for a pw?
[08:51] <eck> xenex: i think it's just called human
[08:51] <Jordan_U> mikeyhatesms, I am sure that there is, but I don't use chatzilla, why not use Xchat or Gaim?
[08:51] <tritium> mikeyhatesms: you could use gaim from the livecd
[08:52] <xenex> eck: It's still the squared theme I installed
[08:52] <vecina> help! I cant install Realplayer :(
[08:52] <diabolix> pwngasm, encrypted zip file?
[08:52] <xenex> eck: http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Human-Squared?content=40544 <-
[08:52] <mikeyhatesms> ok, i can use gaim to get here?
[08:52] <kurizocan7> eck: didn't execute. pretty anti-climatic. i'll keep looking.
[08:52] <mikeyhatesms> i'm complete newbie to these progs
[08:52] <vecina> It says it cant find: GTK+ 2.0 (libgtk-x11-2.0.so)
[08:52] <Supaplex> how sad.
[08:53] <pwngasm> diabolix: but i dont want to have to extract every time i want to view the files
[08:53] <gerro> mikeyhatesms: try mirc for windows or xchat on linux, there also bitchx and irssi if you want more lite linux client
[08:53] <klobster> strace is over my head
[08:53] <klobster> eck: strace is over my head
[08:53] <Floodge> installing the nvidia 3d driver gives me an error on startup, is there a way to fix and or still be able to use my desktop effects?
[08:53] <tritium> mikeyhatesms: yes
[08:53] <Bluecircle> vecina: get them from synaptic
[08:53] <eck> klobster: uh, you should just be checking if the segfault is before or after the fork call
[08:53] <mikeyhatesms> Let me power down xp, and start ubuntu up again. feisty has gaim builtin right?
[08:55] <vecina> Bluecircle  i couldnt find it
[08:55] <Bluecircle> vecina: one sec
[08:55] <eck> klobster: so if you know if chroot segfaults or the shell
[08:55] <xenex> Could someone send me their /usr/share/themes/Human/ contents?
[08:55] <eck> xenex: you should have installed the theme to your homedir, not to the system-wide theme directory
[08:55] <Jordan_U> mikeyhatesms, Yes, it's a little hard to use compared to xchat though for IRC
[08:55] <eck> xenex: next time just drag the theme tarball into the theme manager
[08:55] <diabolix> pwngasm, you can put them in an encrypted partition..
[08:55] <xenex> eck: I did.
[08:55] <eck> xenex: then the human theme will still be present
[08:55] <bsund> does gstreamer have support for real?
[08:55] <Bluecircle> vecina: sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev
[08:55] <mikeyhatesms> but i wont have xchat on the ubuntu cd will i?
[08:55] <bsund> that would be ace
[08:55] <xenex> eck: Well it's not going back to default so, heh.
[08:55] <eck> xenex: i guess you could try clearing out ~/.themes
[08:55] <klobster> eck: if I run strace -c chroot... the last syscall is set_thread_area
[08:55] <mikeyhatesms> is it going to be allright to have a chat open during the install process?
[08:55] <Jordan_U> mikeyhatesms, You can install Xchat on the LiveCD ( it will just store it temporarily in RAM ), just go to Applications -> Add / Remove
[08:56] <bsund> seems like many have problems with realplayer would be easy to say apt-get install gstreamer-real ^^
[08:56] <Bluecircle> vecina: you might also need libgtk2.0-bin and libgtk2.0-common
[08:56] <eck> klobster: try copying the live cd bash to somewhere on the mount point, and then try to use that binary as the command to execute when you chroot
[08:56] <xenex> eck: thanks
[08:56] <pwngasm> diabolix: is there a website that tells me how to set that up?
[08:56] <HorizonXP> hey, is there any way to force VMWare to use my 2nd processor?
[08:56] <Jordan_U> mikeyhatesms, Yes, The Ubuntu install CD is a Full version of Ubuntu running while you install, you can do anything you want while installing :)
[08:56] <mikeyhatesms> ok, can do; will it be ok to have it open during the install???
[08:56] <vecina> Bluecircle: ok hold on :)
[08:57] <ds0n> mikeyhatesms, yeah
[08:57] <mikeyhatesms> Jordan_U: k, thanks, b back in a few
[08:57] <gerro> Floodge: still need some help with xorg?
[08:57] <vecina> Bluecircle: Didnt work :(
[08:57] <Jordan_U> HorizonXP, Is your virtual machine set to use both processors ?
[08:57] <klobster> eck: hrm  can I bind / to /mynewroot/diricreated?
[08:57] <Bluecircle> vecina: you installed all 3?
[08:57] <diabolix> pwngasm, http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/01/24/use-an-encrypted-usb-drivepartition/
[08:57] <klobster> eck: i'm gonna try
[08:57] <vecina> Bluecircle: yes :(
[08:57] <eck> klobster: that's what you're trying to do with the chroot
[08:58] <diabolix> pwngasm, you need extra disk space, or an extra drive.
[08:58] <Bluecircle> vecina: what is it youre trying to do?
[08:58] <vecina> Bluecircle: is being 64 bit going to make me completely unable to view .rms
[08:58] <vecina> Bluecircle: watch my rm and rmvb files >.<
[08:58] <Bluecircle> vecina: and what gave you the gtk error?
[08:58] <vecina> Bluecircle: the installation of realplayer. it said its missing required libraries.
[08:58] <bsund> does vlc have real support?
[08:58] <vecina> Bluecircle:  one is GTK+ 2.0 (libgtk-x11-2.0.so)
[08:59] <vecina> no, it doesn
[08:59] <Bluecircle> right
[08:59] <bsund> :(
[08:59] <hc> My apt-get is kinda fucked now. If I try to 'apt-get update', I get this: W: Klarte ikke  laste ned alle oversiktfilene. De ble ignorerte, eller gamle ble brukt isteden.
[08:59] <Appakot> is there any way to minimize Rythmbox to the taskbar and still have it running?
[08:59] <vecina> at least, it wont let me run mine on it.
[08:59] <hc> Oh shit, that's on norwegian
[08:59] <vecina> Bluecircle: also asks for a bunch others
[08:59] <Bluecircle> vecina: what is the exact error?
[08:59] <vecina> Bluecircle: pango, pangox...
[08:59] <bsund> but shouldnt 64bit have support for 32bit?
[08:59] <vecina> Bluecircle: "some libraries are missing from your system. "
[09:00] <hc> Well. It says it couldn't download all the summary/overview files. They was ignored, or the old ones were used instead.
[09:00] <Appakot> can anyone suggest a good m4a codec?
[09:00] <Bluecircle> vecina: and it lists them?
[09:00] <Jordan_U> vecina, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava also includes Real Player
[09:00] <vecina> Bluecircle:
[09:00] <vecina> nstallation
[09:00] <vecina> can continue without them, but you will be unable to run the HelixPlayer
[09:00] <vecina> without them.  You will need to install them (or if they are already present
[09:00] <vecina> you may simply need to update your system's library paths or LD_LIBRARY_PATH
[09:00] <vecina> environment variable.
[09:00] <vecina> woah!
[09:00] <vecina> sorry about that guys
[09:00] <klobster> eck: segfault
[09:00] <bsund> wtf is helixplayer
[09:00] <vecina> Jordan_U: huh?
[09:00] <bsund> real is crap
[09:00] <vecina> helixplayer = free realplayer
[09:01] <vecina> real IS crap, but i have files in the formate
[09:01] <bsund> stop downloading stuff with real :P
[09:01] <vecina> hey, i cant be picky
[09:01] <Bluecircle> vecina: wait, try sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0 too
[09:01] <klobster> eck: set_thread_area({entry_number:-1 -> 6, base_addr:0xb7e1b940, limit:1048575, seg_32bit:1, contents:0, read_exec_only:0, limit_in_pages:1, seg_not_present:0, useable:1}) = 0
[09:01] <Jordan_U>  vecina That link has instructions for using real player on 64 bit Ubuntu
[09:01] <bsund> vecina: you should be picky against that stuff ^^
[09:01] <actualandrew> see, its about me being to play rhapsody with ubuntu
[09:01] <vecina> I think jordan's onto something
[09:01] <actualandrew> thats it
[09:01] <actualandrew> booya
[09:01] <DrkCodeman> Jordan_U, is there a apt-get for flash?
[09:01] <actualandrew> *being able
[09:01] <vecina> bsund: well if there's only one file on bittorrent .... thats all i can do
[09:01] <Appakot> does ubuntu support m4a music files?
[09:02] <vecina> bsund: WIthout getting into what exactly im trying to view, its hard stuff to find XD
[09:02] <eck> klobster: i guess you need to get a statically compiled shell and use that, i'm not sure what else you can do
[09:02] <bsund> :(
[09:02] <Jordan_U> DrkCodeman, Yes, the package is named flashplugin-nonfree
[09:02] <twikesh> !aac | Appakot
[09:02] <ubotu> Appakot: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[09:02] <DrkCodeman> nonfree? lol
[09:02] <bsund> does win32 codecs you know that mplayer pack, have support for real?
[09:03] <Jordan_U> DrkCodeman, Flash player is proprietary, hence not Free as in Freedom
[09:03] <Bluecircle> vecina: take a look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=475700&highlight=install+HelixPlayer
[09:03] <DrkCodeman> aw
[09:03] <vecina> thanks guys! im gonna go do these things... thanks bunches!
[09:03] <Jordan_U> Bluecircle, vecina Those instructions are not for 64 bit AFIK
[09:04] <Appakot> twikesh, sorry i dont undestand anything on that tutorial, can you just point me in the direction for a m4a codec?
[09:04] <HorizonXP> Jordan_U: No, just 1
[09:04] <DrkCodeman> must have been removed
[09:04] <twikesh> Appakot: if you're running Fesity it should prompt you to download the necessary codecs when you double-click a file
[09:05] <klobster> eck: how would that help? /bin/dash also segfaults...
[09:05] <eck> klobster: is that statically compiled?
[09:05] <twikesh> *Feisty
[09:05] <bsund> but still what 64bits cpu's are out? intel doesnt do 64bit? and amd is backward compatible.. i dont get the idea why 32bit wouldnt work with 64bit-cpu :P
[09:05] <whta> what sort of amazing apps are out there to add a little eye candy to my desktop? I have beryl already, but these gnome panels are looking a bit bland, and i'm interested in whatever else there might be that's good.
[09:05] <klobster> eck: on my fiesty LiveCD?  I am guessing yes
[09:06] <eck> klobster: check it with ldd
[09:06] <Jordan_U> bsund, Anything 32 bit can be made to run on 64 bit Ubuntu, it just requires some hassle because you need the 32 bit libraries it depends on
[09:06] <Tom47> whta the most common dekop alternative is kde
[09:06] <macd> bsund, both intel and AMD have 64bit CPU's, and 32bit works b/c 64bit are just extended registers on 32bit, nothing more.
[09:07] <whta> tom: i have kde installed. i'm not looking for alternate environments, just things that i can add to make it look a bit less boring.
[09:07] <i-like-beans> Heya - Are there any scripts available for server statistics - eg. uptime, average loads, users accessing samba shares, how many pages have been printed etc
[09:07] <bsund> so glibc 64bit isnt backwardscompatible with glibs 32bit?

[09:08] <whta> thanks
[09:08] <melchior7> is there a way to block access to certain URL's/domains from my machine?
[09:08] <Jordan_U> whta, Avant is nice
[09:08] <FreeFull> hosts file
[09:08] <eck> melchior7: dump the domains in your hosts file and point them to localhost
[09:08] <melchior7> the hosts.deny file you mean?
[09:08] <klobster> eck: what does ldd tell me?
[09:09] <eck> no, /etc/hosts
[09:09] <bsund> anyhow i'm glad i buy intels duel-core 32bit and kick ass on 64bits hehe
[09:09] <vecina> Attention!
[09:09] <eck> klobster: what libraries you need to run the program
[09:09] <eazyass> hmm, it seems xubuntu froze up during install on my old computer as well
[09:09] <vecina> let it be known that if you wish to install realplayer, the solution is : sudo apt-get install ia32-libs ia32-libs-gtk linux32 lib32asound2
[09:09] <vecina> :D!
[09:09] <eazyass> i guess i'll have to try xubuntu-alternative as well
[09:09] <vecina> thanks so much for all the help
[09:09] <melchior7> eck so I redirect myspace.com to localhost for example?
[09:09] <eck> klobster: i.e. whether or not it is statically compiled, in this case
[09:09] <DrkCodeman> meh i rather do dual proccessors then dual core
[09:09] <eck> melchior7: exactly
[09:09] <vecina> melchior7: chronotrigger fan?
[09:09] <melchior7> eck: isn't that a bit dirty?
[09:09] <DrkCodeman> clock speed > more processors / cores
[09:09] <bsund> DrkCodeman: why? it's the same but you dont need 2 coolers+fans ;)
[09:09] <DrkCodeman> AMD FTW
[09:09] <eck> melchior7: how do you mean?
[09:10] <macd> bsund, the intel core2duo is 64bit.
[09:10] <melchior7> vecina: yes, but I got the name from evangelion actually; only later did I realize melchior was also in CT :-)
[09:10] <macd> but thats not exactly ontopic.
[09:10] <vecina> melchior7: ^ - ^ hehe
[09:10] <melchior7> eck i guess that'll work; thanks
[09:10] <bsund> macd: nah, infact the proc it's the most closest to is the p2
[09:11] <bsund> very simple and very fast
[09:11] <eck> klobster: if it's statically compiled you'll get the message not a dynamic executable
[09:11] <macd> bsund, http://www.intel.com/pressroom/archive/releases/20060727comp.htm  feel free to call intel and tell them they dont know thier own products.
[09:11] <moDumass> hey all, ive mashed horribly with my machine, how do i use the installer from nvidia
[09:11] <moDumass> so that my new kernel wont blow out and stop working all together
[09:12] <macd> bsund, if you wish to continue this we can goto #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:12] <bsund> core2duo is 32 bit atleast when i buyed it :)
[09:12] <bsund> kk
[09:12] <idefixx> melchior7: if you want an 'cleaner' aproch just add the stuff to iptables like this 'iptables -A INPUT -s <IP> -j DROP'
[09:12] <eck> idefixx: but that is by ip only
[09:12] <eck> idefixx: you want to drop the whole domain
[09:13] <Jordan_U> moDumass, I would uninstall nvidia.com's drivers and install using the restricted driver manager in System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager
[09:13] <moDumass> if theres anyone out there who has solved this nvidia (kernel upgrade) issue, please fill me in
[09:13] <bsund> Intel 64 Technology  This enhancement to Intel's 32-bit architecture supports 64-bit computing, including enabling the processor to access larger amounts of memory. <-> maybe i was wrong then ^^ to drunk for my own best hehe
[09:13] <moDumass> Jordan_U im not using x, im using command line
[09:13] <moDumass> how would i go about it without GUI
[09:14] <eck> and you don't want to do dns lookups for all outgoing requests
[09:14] <moDumass> Jordan_U X failed to start
[09:14] <idefixx> eck: well, he'll have to add an ip-range in that case. i just wanted to give him an alternativ.
[09:14] <Appakot> I'm trying to play a .m4a file, and I have to codecs, becuase when I double click on it, it opens in Movie Player with a visualizer, however, when i try to play it in Rhtymbox, it says it cant play it b/c its a .m4a file, any ideas?
[09:14] <Jordan_U> moDumass, Run this in the command line to get X working again ( without 3D acceleration ) ( choose "nv" when asked what driver to use ): sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh
[09:15] <moDumass> Jordan_U yeh I tried taht, no love though
[09:15] <moDumass> didnt get x working at all, but i will try one more time, do i Atl+ctrl+backspace after
[09:15] <Jordan_U> moDumass, Sorry, forgot to say to restart X after with: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[09:16] <danielw> I installed the xpad module so that i can plug my xbox360 controller in as a joystick, it seems to recognise the device but there is no /dev/input/js# mapped
[09:16] <danielw> what usually sets up the /dev/input/js# links?
[09:17] <melchior7> Eck: if I add '127.0.0.1 myspace.com' to my /etc/hosts, it blocks http://myspace.com but not www.myspace.com
[09:17] <moDumass> thaks
[09:17] <moDumass> il give it a wirl
[09:17] <SeveredCross> melchior7: *.myspace.com?
[09:17] <eck> melchior7: you need to add them both
[09:18] <eck> because www.myspace.com isn't in the hosts file so your computer does a real dns lookup
[09:19] <moDumass> hmmm, Jordan_U it flashed blackscreen 3 times, then went to that grey and blue screen saying "Failed to start X server (your ... ... ...
[09:19] <Jordan_U> moDumass, An when asked for the driver you chose "nv" and not "nvidia" correct?
[09:21] <dibblego> tar cvpzf foo.tar.gz / --exclude=/tmp/foo.tar.gz --exclude=/proc --exclude=/lost+found --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/sys --exclude=/music --exclude=/vmware --exclude=/home # why doesn't this command prevent /home from being added to the archive?
[09:21] <melchior7> eck, SeveredCross: thanks, I need to log out to get it to work with firefox for some reason
[09:21] <klobster> eck: ok the static one worked.
[09:21] <klobster> ls
[09:21] <klobster> eck: untill I tried ls
[09:21] <eck> klobster: yeah, your glibc is borked
[09:22] <eck> klobster: if you can just back up your data and reinstall
[09:22] <moDumass> Jordan_U hmm, it flashed blackscreen 3 times, then went to that grey and blue screen saying "Failed to start X server (your ... ... ...
[09:22] <Jordan_U> moDumass, An when asked for the driver you chose "nv" and not "nvidia" correct?
[09:22] <moDumass> so something else is mashed baddly
[09:22] <moDumass> yeh chose nv
[09:22] <klobster> eck: I could, but there isn't another way?
[09:22] <klobster> mv\
[09:23] <vladuz976> so debian is based on sid? sid is just frozen and debugged until stable?
[09:23] <eck> klobster: you can reinstall glibc, but none of your apps in the chroot are going to work so it's going to be a pita
[09:23] <Jordan_U> moDumass, Try again ( press up arrow and you won't have to type the command again :) but choose "VESA" this time
[09:23] <vladuz976> i meant ubuntu based on debian sid
[09:23] <moDumass> Jordan_U indeed yeh chose nv
[09:23] <moDumass> ok
[09:23] <eck> vladuz976: i think it's actually based on testing
[09:23] <shiftplusone_> Hey, where are the entries for the main menu stored?
[09:23] <mikeyhatesms> Jordan_U: got xchat running; now going back to install ...
[09:23] <eck> vladuz976: but that's the right idea
[09:23] <zbadone> I just finished installing Feisty on my laptop, Toshiba with a ipw3945 wireless card, cant choose WPA2 pre shared key ?
[09:24] <Jordan_U> mikeyhatesms, Ok
[09:24] <mikeyhatesms> hold the applause for later
[09:24] <klobster> can I cp the glibc from the LiveCD, or redirect where apt-get install glibc to "X"?
[09:24] <moDumass> woohoo
[09:24] <klobster> eck: ^^
[09:24] <zbadone> only WEP key hex or wep ascii
[09:24] <vladuz976> eck: oh ok.
[09:24] <eck> klobster: i think you can redirect apt, i'm not sure how you would do that though
[09:24] <eck> klobster: you can also try copying it i guess
[09:25] <moDumass> Jordan_U ok, im in, any idea what i woul need to do in order to fix this?
[09:25] <zbadone> any ideas how to enable WPA@ pre shared key?
[09:25] <zbadone> WPA2
[09:25] <eck> klobster: hwo did glibc get messed up?
[09:25] <eck> klobster: for all you know other things are broken too
[09:26] <Jordan_U> moDumass, Remove the Nvidia drivers that you installed from nvidia.com, then enable the ones that come with Ubuntu in System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager
[09:26] <moDumass> Jordan_U thanks for that Il Google it
[09:26] <vecina> Jordan_U   Installing those things may have opened pandora's box
[09:26] <moDumass> Jordan_U how do i uninstall the one that came with the system?
[09:27] <zbadone> any ideas how to enable WPA2 pre shared key for ipw3945 wifi card?
[09:27] <vecina> Jordan_U: Grub now has two extra entries, which are exactly the same as the usual ones, and all my graphics are slow :(
[09:27] <moDumass> sorry ive been using ubuntu for about a year now but i rarely have to reinstall drivers
[09:27] <Jordan_U> moDumass, No, you want to use the ones that come with Ubuntu, remove the ones from nvidia.com
[09:28] <Jordan_U> vecina, After installing real player?
[09:28] <klobster> eck: I think what happened was after some nightmares involving the sda/hda crap thats being pulled, I tried to use an old 5.10 cd to fix grub and it jumoed over to the install before I got a chance to fix it.
[09:28] <vecina> Jordan_U: Yes... what was the link to that page? :(
[09:28] <moDumass> ok, Jordan_U how do i do that?
[09:28] <klobster> eck: s/fix/stop/
[09:29] <vecina> Jordan_U: realplayer works, except of course that it is not even veiwable because its laggy as hell - probably connected to the graphical issues i now have
[09:29] <iMammal_> is there a simple howto for migrating from debian to ubuntu?
[09:29] <Jordan_U> moDumass, I don't normally use the drivers from Nvidia.com, let me check...
[09:29] <klobster> eck: I know it wrote _something_ to my disk, because I had a rebuilt fstab
[09:29] <HardDisk> my "Removable Drives and Media" doesn't run I get this message "The "hald" service is required but not currently running. Enable the service and rerun this application, or contact your system administrator."
[09:30] <moDumass> im on to it
[09:30] <Jordan_U> vecina, Ahh, you might be having the same problem as moDumass, did you install nvidia or ATi drivers without using restricted driver manager / the Ubuntu repositories ?
[09:30] <vecina> Jordan_U: I dont remember, its been a while... i used 'envy'
[09:30] <mikeyhatesms> Jordan_U: i see you are real busy helping the whole world, i will be patient.  Screen reads: Prepare Disk Space.  How do you want to partition the disk? () Guided - Resize IDE1 master, partition #1 (hda1) and use freed space.  New partition size: 89%...
[09:31] <eck> klobster: just reinstall, you don't know what the extent of the damage is
[09:31] <mikeyhatesms> jordan_U: choices: cancel, back, or forward
[09:31] <idefixx> iMammal_: i guess you can just edit your sources.list and make apt take care of the rest i dont see why there would be a problem with this? are you using sarge or etch?
[09:31] <klobster> eck: I know, I just hate that answer...
[09:31] <eck> if you have /home on a separate partition it should be pretty easy
[09:32] <Flannel> iMammal_: moving from debian to ubuntu isn't a simple matter.  You're welcome to try it though.
[09:32] <vecina> Reinstallation sucks
[09:32] <eck> reinstalling is a much cleaner solution than copying files from the live cd or whatnot
[09:32] <Jordan_U> vecina, Then yes, you did, with envy you have to re-install every time you get a kernel upgrade, so I recommend actually using envy to *remove* the drivers and install them the Ubuntu way using System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager
[09:32] <vecina> now i wish my data was on a seperate partition...
[09:32] <klobster> eck: I spent three hours pouring through all the files, looking for anything with a modified timestamp; I don't know how my libs were damaged
[09:32] <Jordan_U> vecina, No need to re-install
[09:32] <vecina> jordan_U okay... so use envy to remove them....
[09:32] <eck> klobster: you should have used find ;-)
[09:33] <vecina> there goes my ATI drivers....
[09:33] <eck> e.g. find / -mtime 1
[09:33] <HardDisk> any ideas why my "Removable Drives and Media" doesn't run I get this message "The "hald" service is required but not currently running. Enable the service and rerun this application, or contact your system administrator."
[09:33] <vecina> somehow i donbt think they were on anyway
[09:33] <klobster> eck: I did, but I had to go and check/change/research each file
[09:34] <Jordan_U> vecina, Yea, ATI's proprietary drivers suck, but they can be better than the reverse engineered ones with some cards
[09:34] <klobster> eck: there were only three that I found that seemed important/affected
[09:34] <MQP_Mik> hola
[09:34] <iMammal_> idefixx: how can it tell? where can I get a new list?
[09:35] <vecina> Jordan_U: I removed eveyrthing and restarted x, whats next?
[09:35] <moDumass> Jordan_U how admin>restricted driver managers says  "your hardare doen not need restricted drivers
[09:35] <melchior7> hmmmm what are some other sites that I should block to increase productivity?
[09:35] <eck> klobster: well you can probably get away with copying over the files on the live cd if that's what you prefer
[09:35] <Jordan_U> vecina, Install the drivers from System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager and restart X again
[09:35] <mikeyhatesms> Jordan_U: are you gnna be around long enough to help me through the partitioning, and if so should we open a private window, and if so, how?  if you're tired or not gnna be around, can you reccomend someone to help me through it?
[09:35] <rickyrich> hi, goodmaorning all, i'm trying to configure a tv pci card that i saw is supported in ubuntu but without success :(
[09:35] <vecina> Jordan_U: any idea where that would be in kde?
[09:36] <Jordan_U> vecina, No, ask in #kubuntu , I am sure someone there will know
[09:36] <vecina> Jordan_U: its okay, i have gnome too, ill just switch :(
[09:36] <klobster> eck: nah, I'll just reinstall.  I keep regular backups of the important stuff. Thank you for all your help
[09:36] <MrStonedOne> hello, im having issues with getting beryl to run
[09:37] <MrStonedOne> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25931/
[09:37] <rickyrich> i saw also this guide http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=76637&highlight=flyvideo+3000
[09:37] <rickyrich> that is for my pci tv card any suggest please :(
[09:37] <idefixx> iMammal_: tell what? the repository url is 'http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty main restricted universe multiverse' i think.
[09:37] <iMammal_> idefixx: i used a pxeboot image I found online somewhere and it downloaded the rest... I didn't follow closely.
[09:37] <subliminal727> got a problem i'm finding no answers for on the web,  i have a toshiba satellite a135 running ubuntu feisty, anyone know anything at all about getting s-video out on here to work?
[09:38] <vecina> Jordan_U: um... there is no "restricted package" program under system/admin
[09:38] <vecina> Jordan_U: just synaptic
[09:39] <Jordan_U> vecina, Are you running Feisty ?
[09:39] <rickyrich> anyone could help me to configure my pci tv card?
[09:39] <vecina> Jordan_U: yes... in kubuntu tho so who knows
[09:39] <mikeyhatesms> jordan_U: i got bumped off.  can u help me thru the partition process?
[09:39] <vecina> Jordan_U: those guys arent as helpful as this room though :P
[09:40] <idefixx> iMammal_: pxeimage to install debian? or are you taling about ubuntu? in any case you'll probably be using etch... shouldnt matter anyway. just backup your stuff and change the sources from debian to ubuntu.
[09:40] <pak33m> can anybody help with network-manager
[09:40] <Jordan_U> mikeyhatesms, Yes, choose to re-size partition 1, Are you sure that you have enough free space to install Ubuntu?
[09:40] <heroin> where is the trashcan located?
[09:40] <HardDisk> someone would like to tell me why "Removable Drives and Media" doesn't work? even after reinstallation of it.
[09:40] <mikeyhatesms> almost 6 gigs? enough?
[09:41] <vecina> HardDisk: That pissed me off too, try "sudo aptitude reinstall dbus"
[09:41] <pupi120290> hello, i have a network and on both computers i have set up a nfs-server and nfs-client. if i boot computer a, it will not mount the home-filesystem of computer b, because i b is down. then i boot computer b. it will now mount the home-folder of computer a. the problem is that computer a does not mount automatically the home-folder of computer b. how can i do this?
[09:41] <heroin> HardDisk: check /var/log/syslog
[09:41] <vecina> HardDisk: that thing gets borked
[09:41] <mikeyhatesms> jordan_u: do i do a guided or a manual partition?
[09:41] <Jordan_U> vecina, Install the package "restricted-manager"
[09:42] <HardDisk> hmm
[09:42] <Jordan_U> mikeyhatesms, guided.
[09:42] <HardDisk> kinda sucks ya
[09:42] <iMammal_> idefixx: used pxeimage for debian. didn't care... had an ultralight lappy with no media drives, first time and a locked winxp drive of an ultraweird ide conector ... first time for everything.
[09:42] <vecina> aha i didnt have that
[09:42] <heroin> pupi120290: dude O.o just have each computer have a home dir and sync it? or use computer A to hold both home dirs?
[09:42] <HardDisk> vecina will try that bro
[09:42] <HardDisk> and heroin yea Ill check that too
[09:42] <vecina> Jordan_U: It worked :D
[09:42] <Jordan_U> mikeyhatesms, There is probably a slider on the window you are looking at that will let you choose what % of the disk to use for Ubuntu
[09:42] <heroin> where is the trashcan located?
[09:42] <idefixx> iMammal_: well the debian pxe img defaults to stabel, when did you install it?
[09:42] <vecina> Jordan_U: it says my hardware doesnt need restricted drivers....
[09:43] <mikeyhatesms> k it has a bar and the bar is set at 89% (14.6 gb) which means of my 20 gigs i have 5 and change left
[09:43] <iMammal_> idefixx: last week or so...
[09:43] <Jordan_U> vecina, Some ATI cards don't
[09:43] <pupi120290> no, i just want that i could access home-dirs from the other computer.
[09:43] <Frogzoo> pupi120290: you might do better using an automout daemon
[09:43] <pupi120290> automount
[09:43] <HardDisk> maybe a restart will fix it :)
[09:43] <vecina> Jordan_U: I assure you it does. my graphics were waaaay faster
[09:43] <pupi120290> how to use it
[09:43] <idefixx> iMammal_: well you're running etch then. do you know what i mean by updating your sources.list?
[09:44] <prince_> hi
[09:44] <Jordan_U> Ok, You can just install the package yourself then with synaptic, here is a link...
[09:44] <vecina> Jordan_U: when i double clikc icons now, the animation of them blowing up is choppy
[09:44] <Jordan_U> !ati | vecina
[09:44] <ubotu> vecina: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:44] <vecina> thank you
[09:44] <prince_> is there a command to clean out my systems /var/log or can I delete it with out causing any issues?
[09:45] <iMammal_> idefixx: vaguely. googling...
[09:45] <Frogzoo> pupi120290: can't see an automountd in the repos but I do see autofs - that may do it
[09:45] <gerro> prince_: cd /var/log then do rm -Rf * as root
[09:45] <rickyrich> how can help my to configure a supported pci tv card in ubuntu?
[09:45] <pupi120290> ok thanks, ill check up automount
[09:45] <prince_> alright gerro just wanted to make sure it would not cause the system to crash
[09:45] <heroin> gerro: that will clear all logs?
[09:45] <fulcilives> Hello all
[09:45] <gerro> heroin: yep deletes all in the directory
[09:46] <Jordan_U> heroin, Yes, but be VERRY careful with that command
[09:46] <iMammal_> idefixx: I just discovered that ubuntu is debian based... so apt... works the same I'm assuming just needs new archive that you provided... not sure where the file is.
[09:46] <idefixx>  iMammal_ alright here is the thing, i never did this but in theory there is no problem afaics...

[09:47] <idefixx> iMammal_: ubuntu is basicly another version of debian.. so if you disbale all thid party sources and add the ubuntu repositorys to your sources.list and just upgrade the system.. this should essential kill all the debian stuff and exchange it with ubuntu stuff.
[09:47] <rickyrich> anyone have a pci tv card and could help me to configure?
[09:47] <heroin> Jordan_U: gerro there is not automatic log file size ?
[09:47] <fulcilives> I'm new to Ubuntu 7.04 and I have installed Beryl but I need some help with it ... can't seem to change "themes" plus none of my windows have the "bar" at the top so I can't drag the windows around or max/min them without going to the "tab" at the bottom of the screen. Annoying!
[09:48] <zero-9376> fulcilives: you will need to install emerald and emerald themes
[09:48] <iMammal_> idefixx: if I only need one package with no forseeable dependencies, (hostap-source kernel) would it just be easier to download it and dpkg -i it?
[09:48] <gerro> heroin: if you put your logs on a separate partition it can't grow any larger or you could have a daemon check the log size and process it when it gets too large
[09:48] <MrStonedOne> Hello, i tried to get beryl to run on feisty ubuntu after installing the ati drivers, and i get this error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25931/ and it reverts back to normal
[09:48] <Hobbsee> rob: [KING]  needs a kline.  large flooding.
[09:48] <fulcilives> I have emerald and emerald themes installed but when I bring it up and select a theme nothing happens.
[09:48] <zeeeee> help - after i successfully mounted a sshfs, i have to be su to access it. how can i avoid this?
[09:49] <zero-9376> fulcilives: or heliodor if you want to use gnome themes
[09:49] <heroin> gerro: yah well i guees i will just remove them once in a while
[09:49] <OmegaCenti> Hobbsee: What is a Kline? I think I know a Gline (whole server wide ban)
[09:49] <WrongT> how i can instal a package with my hdd
[09:49] <mikeyhatesms> jordan, don't know if i continue with partition at 89%?
[09:49] <heroin> gerro: i cant automatically set a max size on  the log folder?
[09:49] <Hobbsee> OmegaCenti: same thing.
[09:49] <idefixx> iMammal_: there is practicly no package without dependencie.. but there are guids on how to mix debian and ubuntu... so it should be possible.
[09:49] <Hobbsee> OmegaCenti: effectively
[09:49] <prince_> gerro: thank you
[09:49] <OmegaCenti> Hobbsee: Thanks :)
[09:50] <MrStonedOne> kline == server ban, but its used as slang for gline from back in the one server per network days
[09:50] <iMammal_> idefixx: what could a kernel source package possibly depend on? its the kernel...
[09:50] <zero-9376> fulcilives: in beryl manager you might have to select window decorator
[09:50] <vecina> Jordan_U: It failed :/
[09:50] <idefixx> iMammal_: let me see
[09:50] <NeoGeo64> will ubuntu ever be charged for
[09:50] <fulcilives> ok I'll check that out then zero-9376
[09:50] <zero-9376> anyone here using a logitech MX700 mouse
[09:50] <OmegaCenti> iMammal_: The General of course. :)
[09:50] <prince_> heroin: I can't believe 1/6 of my hdd filled up with logs
[09:50] <Myrtti> NeoGeo64: no
[09:50] <mikeyhatesms> after saving (migrating) docs and files to ubuntu can i resize the partitions to evict xp from my lands?
[09:50] <heroin> prince_: yah thats pretty crappy

[09:51] <NeoGeo64> never? why?
[09:51] <prince_> I mean my that partition

[09:51] <heroin> mikeyhatesms: but take head... grub will bitch
[09:51] <iMammal_> SOMETHING has to have NO DEPENDECIES! a priori reasoning!
[09:51] <OmegaCenti> heed?

[09:54] <vecina> Jordan_U: no, it failed :(
[09:54] <heroin> mikeyhatesms: u sure go for it
[09:54] <gerro> OmegaCenti: sup dude

[09:55] <MrStonedOne> anyone got any ideas on the error: beryl: GLX_SGIX_fbconfig is missing in fawn ubuntu with ati drivers installed
[09:55] <gerro> mikeyhatesms: go to one of those "learn office 07" classes and your mind will literally die
[09:55] <OmegaCenti> mikeyhatesms: You might want to try backing up all your files to DVD, or if you have two computers do file transfers fro and to the computers.
[09:55] <NeoGeo64> Help... how can I tell if my copy of Ubuntu is genuine?
[09:55] <mikeyhatesms> is there a way i can back up my whole xp online, and then just do a full install on the computer?
[09:55] <Jordan_U_> mikeyhatesms, It doesn't recognize your windows partition and offer to import your documents?
[09:56] <vecina> Jordan_U i have to restart again
[09:56] <OmegaCenti> NeoGeo64: lmao. Are you serious?
[09:56] <Jordan_U_> mikeyhatesms, What do you mean "online" ?
[09:56] <MrStonedOne> NeoGeo64, dont worry
[09:56] <gerro> NeoGeo64: compare the md5sum to make sure its genuine
[09:56] <mikeyhatesms> no, said there were no files suitable for import
[09:56] <mikeyhatesms> so i aborted
[09:56] <NeoGeo64> Where can I download UGA (Ubuntu Genuine Advantage) ?
[09:56] <OmegaCenti> LOL
[09:56] <heroin> mikeyhatesms: ok so what we could do.. install Ubnutu on partition2 and make a SWAP area and leave XP.. transfer the files from XP to ubuntu, then re-add the xp partition to ubuntu or format it and use it as a mount point
[09:56] <MrStonedOne> LOL
[09:56] <gerro> OmegaCenti: yes he is serious, sometimes it doesn't burn right
[09:56] <Carb0n> kuldev: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats

[09:57] <gerro> NeoGeo64: not everywhere, but yeah 4am me too
[09:57] <OmegaCenti> Alright alright, my apologies. it was too funny to resist.
[09:57] <heroin> mikeyhatesms: u might also wanne try backing-up your files.. DVD USB-devices.. printing whatever works
[09:57] <moDumass> so now i cant select restricted drivers
[09:57] <mikeyhatesms> don't have any of those
[09:57] <NeoGeo64> ironic that a linux distro is named after africa, where the majority of people have never seen a computer much less linux
[09:58] <heroin> mikeyhatesms: or make a large .rar file and upload it to megaupload.com or something
[09:58] <MrStonedOne> lol
[09:58] <coderipper1983> moDumass >you from Missouri???
[09:58] <heroin> NeoGeo64: .. way to go understanding the meaning of ubuntu
[09:58] <fulcilives> I still can't figure out why my windows don't have a border when using Beryl
[09:58] <moDumass> coderipper, no sorry
[09:58] <heroin> NeoGeo64: whatch the SAMPLE movie which comes w. ubuntu for an explinatin on ubuntu and its meaning
[09:58] <gerro> mikeyhatesms: I think it has something to do with that $100 laptop deal
[09:58] <MrStonedOne> try doing beryl-manager in a command line
[09:58] <NeoGeo64> i dont wanna.

[09:58] <OmegaCenti> heroin: where is this sample movie, I have never seen it.
[09:58] <twikesh> fucilives: try asking in #ubuntu-effects if no one here can help you
[09:58] <fulcilives> The manager comes up but then what???
[09:59] <idefixx> NeoGeo64: ubuntu is not named after africa that like saying 'windows' is named after america
[09:59] <fulcilives> oh ok I'll try that IRC channel ... thanks
[09:59] <heroin> OmegaCenti: in the SAMPLE dir.. just insert the 7.04 Install cd, its in your home dir
[09:59] <MrStonedOne> select window manager -> beryl
[09:59] <Jordan_U_> fulcilives, There is a problem with Emerald, ask in #ubuntu-effects or #beryl ( might have changed since the merge, check the topic when you get there )
[09:59] <OmegaCenti> heroin: Ill check it out. Thanks!
[09:59] <gerro> fulcilives: install emerald to have window themes with beryl
[09:59] <heroin> OmegaCenti: yah its really sweet if ur high
[09:59] <fulcilives> I have emerald installed
[09:59] <wvdschel> does ubuntu no longer support powerpc?
[09:59] <OmegaCenti> heroin: LMAO!
[09:59] <NeoGeo64> In a world without wall and fences, who needs windows and gates?
[09:59] <coderipper1983> Read Sytem-About to find out what Ubuntu means
[09:59] <fulcilives> and I have the Beryl "diamond" thing on my top tool bar
[09:59] <vecina> Jordan_U: I keep getting this error: modinfo: could not find module fglrx
[10:00] <heroin> wvdschel: let me ask u this, who supports powerpc? MAC? LOL ;;P not anymore
[10:00] <Jordan_U_> wvdschel, Not officially, no, there is still support for some versions, but there won't be for newer ones
[10:00] <vecina> Jordan_U_: whats this mean?  modinfo: could not find module fglrx
[10:00] <OmegaCenti> I don't have it... dangit...
[10:00] <gerro> fulcilives: I had to play around with different beryl and emerald versions also needed compiz and some gnome junk installed to get beryl desktop stuff going
[10:00] <MrStonedOne> u can try starting emerald in a command line, with emerald

[10:01] <OmegaCenti> gerro, even though its spam, try to avoid expletives.
[10:01] <wvdschel> and where am I supposed to look for powerpc linux now? :(
[10:01] <NeoGeo64> how nice of packeterror to leave after he saw all that flooding
[10:01] <NeoGeo64> and he even mentioned it in his quit msg
[10:01] <Myrtti> gerro: please, mind you language
[10:01] <heroin> wvdschel: idk..
[10:01] <OmegaCenti> Hold on checking to see if that came from the same user.
[10:01] <heroin> wvdschel: they dont have it on the website?
[10:01] <fulcilives> Well Beryl seems to be working just that my windows have no borders and when I open the Emerald Theme Manager it seems to do nothing (can't change themes)
[10:01] <OmegaCenti> Hobbsee: did that come from the same subnet?
[10:01] <broody> how do i go to the desktop from the commnd prompt?
[10:02] <vecina> Jordan_U_: I dont think i can install from the ubuntu drivers... its just one error after another
[10:02] <Myrtti> broody: try alt-f7
[10:02] <heroin> OmegaCenti: no two random people decided to flood with the same url, he is using socks proxies so goodluck
[10:02] <fulcilives> I see no option in Beryl Manager for borders on windows
[10:02] <kuldev> thanks for this help
[10:02] <coderipper1983> type sudo init 5
[10:02] <NeoGeo64> just type /ban *@*
[10:02] <NeoGeo64> that will fix it
[10:02] <OmegaCenti> heroin: I thought freenode had some port scannig protection from that
[10:02] <MrStonedOne> fulcilives, try typing emerald in command prompt
[10:02] <fulcilives> you mean terminal MrStonedOne ?
[10:02] <NeoGeo64> then +v everyone and +m the room
[10:02] <heroin> OmegaCenti: urm.. well i guees it doesnt really work :D
[10:02] <MrStonedOne> ya
[10:02] <fulcilives> ok
[10:03] <coderipper1983> sudo init 5
[10:03] <mikeyhatesms> so, heroin, can you help me through this partitioning?
[10:03] <heroin> mikeyhatesms: sure
[10:03] <broody> Myrtti : it didnt work
[10:03] <mikeyhatesms> should we open a new window
[10:03] <kuldev> from where  I can get tutoral for linux
[10:03] <mikeyhatesms> and how?
[10:03] <heroin> mikeyhatesms: its not like unraring 650mb is going to take less then an hour
[10:03] <moDumass> hey all, my problem is that i cant enable restricted drivers from administration, because ubuntu says my hardware doesnt need restricted drivers
[10:03] <idefixx> OmegaCenti: freenode just checks for open proxys afaik, thats it.
[10:03] <MrStonedOne> i just started using linux, im a old windows tard, but that is a side of me that is gone forever
[10:03] <broody> Myrtti : I just installed the server version
[10:03] <OmegaCenti> heroin: In my line of work I can't work with assumptions :)
[10:04] <vecina> kuldev: there are many books at libraries which are good to have
[10:04] <fulcilives> oh great ... I open TERMINAL and the screen is just ALL WHITE ... damn Beryl
[10:04] <MrStonedOne> oh
[10:04] <coderipper1983> What kind of hardware is it???\
[10:04] <mikeyhatesms> it will take an HOUR??? :(
[10:04] <vecina> kuldev: or go to the ubuntu.com website
[10:04] <heroin> mikeyhatesms: ok assuming ur in windowsXP desktop, see how large is your harddrive size (GB) and how much space in being used?

[10:04] <vecina> brb all!
[10:04] <heroin> OmegaCenti: i assume u do something importantish? like CSI miami ? or a judge?
[10:04] <fulcilives> I didn't know it wasn't working til now but I think this is the first I've tried to use Terminal since installing Beryl
[10:05] <broody> Myrtti : ok thanks
[10:05] <Myrtti> broody: the server version doesn't have graphical environment at all installed by default
[10:05] <OmegaCenti> heroin: No, Electrical Engineering. :)
[10:05] <heroin> mikeyhatesms: no i have an hour.. tahts what i meant

[10:05] <fulcilives> ok I'm off to #beryl
[10:05] <iMammal_> idefixx: i give up: where is my source.list file and where can I get one from an ubuntu distro?
[10:05] <moDumass> agp, not sli
[10:05] <nalioth> fulcilives: you might try #ubuntu-effects
[10:05] <Jordan_U_> iMammal_, /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:05] <heroin> mikeyhatesms: ok open a terminal, its the ubuntu thing > accesoirs > terminal
[10:05] <heroin> mikeyhatesms: tell me when u did that
[10:05] <mikeyhatesms> it's telling me 'new partition size' 89% (14.6 gbb) so i have about 5 and change leftover
[10:06] <LunatikBunnie> uh, i think i screwed up my taskbar.
[10:06] <heroin> OmegaCenti: man iam a college student and iam bored and screwed
[10:06] <LunatikBunnie> i acidentally hit -remove this panel, and its gone
[10:06] <LunatikBunnie> noww its just a grew panel
[10:06] <heroin> LunatikBunnie: right click on bar > ADD panel
[10:06] <kuldev> thanks
[10:06] <LunatikBunnie> which one to add?
[10:06] <Mopar55> Hey
[10:07] <heroin> LunatikBunnie: which bar did u lose? just select it.. (iam using fluxbox)
[10:07] <NeoGeo64> Does Linux get fragmented like XP?
[10:07] <magic_ninja> how do i restart sound server
[10:07] <iMammal_> ok. i get it.
[10:07] <Jordan_U> NeoGeo64, No
[10:07] <heroin> NeoGeo64: no.. because linux is excool
[10:07] <NeoGeo64> I noticed Ubuntu doesn't come with a disk defragmenter. WHy?
[10:07] <heroin> NeoGeo64: because we hate u
[10:07] <LunatikBunnie> because it doesnt need to be defragmented?
[10:07] <OmegaCenti> heroin: lmao.. enjoy being screwed... I mean.. uh....
[10:07] <crdlb> NeoGeo64, because it doesn't need one
[10:07] <twikesh> NeoGeo64: no, but you should run fsck every now and then
[10:07] <magic_ninja> !defrag | neogeo64
[10:07] <ubotu> neogeo64: defragmentation is not needed for Ext3 and ReiserFS filesystems. They are much more efficient in their allocation of storage units.
[10:07] <dawn_chorus> magic_ninja, sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[10:07] <mikeyhatesms> heroin, ok, i opened terminal it says ubuntu@ubuntu:-$
[10:07] <heroin> OmegaCenti: well not so much by school
[10:07] <LunatikBunnie> heroin, how do i format my NTFS partition into something linux likes?
[10:07] <NeoGeo64> ok just wondering
[10:07] <NeoGeo64> i was freaking out over here
[10:07] <broody> how do i install the gui for server version?
[10:07] <NeoGeo64> about to go back to xp
[10:08] <heroin> mikeyhatesms: exellent ok type the following line sudo apt-get install gparted qtparted
[10:08] <Jordan_U> LunatikBunnie, You can Read / Write To NTFS from Linux
[10:08] <heroin> mikeyhatesms: that will install two disk partiniors!

[10:08] <NeoGeo64> i have some issues non related to linux that need resolving..
[10:08] <LunatikBunnie> Jordan_U, i know, i just want to delete my XP now NOOOW XD
[10:08] <heroin> broody: ubuntu-desktop
[10:08] <magic_ninja> dawn_chorus: ty
[10:08] <dawn_chorus> magic_ninja, your welcome.
[10:08] <pupi120290> can somebody help me how to use the automount-daemon. i have no idea how to mount the nfs-filesystem
[10:09] <coderipper1983> whats that NeoGeo
[10:09] <vecina> Jordan_U: I just used envy, and it worked. sadly, realplayer still lags up horribly when the sound plys... which isnt all the time... so its between me and helix now
[10:09] <vecina> !helixplayer
[10:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about helixplayer - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:09] <heroin> OmegaCenti: just do it.. u can always buy a new computer, but u cant always learn new things!
[10:09] <cormarrr> I'm having trouble installing Ubutnu, anyone got a sec to help?
[10:09] <dawn_chorus> cormarrr, what sort of trouble?
[10:09] <LunatikBunnie> Where can i get the cool looking dock taht looks like OSX but you can toss it around?
[10:09] <Jordan_U> LunatikBunnie, Gparted
[10:09] <HardDisk> huh?
[10:09] <LunatikBunnie> Jordan_U, that's the dock?
[10:09] <heroin> Jordan_U: what the hell gparted O>O
[10:09] <subliminal727> kiba-dock
[10:10] <twikesh> LunatikBunnie: are you talking about Kiba?
[10:10] <iMammal_> idefixx: whats that ubuntu archive line again:? http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu main universe multiverse universe feisty? I lost it in the flood....
[10:10] <HardDisk> gparted isnt it
[10:10] <Jordan_U> mikeyhatesms, To make things simpler you could resize your partition first using Gparted ( available on the LiveCD ) or partition magic ( from windows ) then you can just tell the installer to use the free space
[10:10] <LunatikBunnie> oh
[10:10] <cormarrr> dawn_chorus: I can't get the partitions right, I get the error "No root file system defined"
[10:10] <HardDisk> there are tonnes of docks
[10:10] <LunatikBunnie> Jordan_U, that's the partition thing?
[10:10] <HardDisk> just search synaptic for "dock"
[10:10] <twikesh> LunatikBunnie: I think Kiba is what you're looking for
[10:10] <heroin> Jordan_U: thats what i told him to do.. he is installing gparted and qtparted now
[10:10] <heroin> can i use kiba with flux?
[10:11] <idefixx> iMammal_: yup with the 'deb' infront of it. mom let me pm you.
[10:11] <dawn_chorus> cormarrr, yes.  whichever partition you'd like to install Ubuntu to, set that partition to have mount point / .  Understand?
[10:11] <cormarrr> dawn_chorus: I have done that and I still get the error
[10:11] <LunatikBunnie> twikesh, alright, i'll try get KIba. I thought it was Gnome Dock or something
[10:11] <mikeyhatesms> it's already executing the command you gave me
[10:11] <twikesh> LunatikBunnie: see if this helps: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=268645
[10:11] <heroin> mikeyhatesms: yah its isntalling some stuff now
[10:11] <robert_> how do I remount my disk in read-write mode?
[10:11] <pupi120290> anyone knows here how the automount daemon functions. it does not mount the nfs-filesytem on the other computer.
[10:11] <robert_> it had a seek error
[10:11] <Jordan_U> robert_, NTFS?
[10:11] <robert_> and now I can't write anything to it
[10:11] <robert_> ext3
[10:11] <subliminal727> if you google for kibas homepage theres another repo you can use that has all the plugins for it
[10:12] <dawn_chorus> cormarrr, could you post a screenshot?
[10:12] <Jordan_U> robert_, Run an fsck to repair the disk
[10:12] <mikeyhatesms> heroin, how do i know when it's done
[10:12] <robert_> Jordan_U: the disk is my /home drive
[10:12] <cormarrr> dawn_chorus: Post it to where?
[10:13] <sarthor> Hi. how to start squid, dhcpd and named services at boot time in my ubuntu Fiesty.

[10:13] <heroin> mikeyhatesms: yah
[10:14] <mikeyhatesms> k
[10:14] <Jordan_U> robert_, I think that this command will make an fsck run the next time you boot : sudo touch /forcecheck
[10:14] <heroin> mikeyhatesms: terminal is your friend.. u will learn to like it later
[10:14] <sarthor> Hi. how to start squid, dhcpd and named services at boot time in my ubuntu Fiesty.

[10:17] <tohtorijep> wow thanks.. that wasnt what i was looking for but thanks
[10:17] <cormarrr> dawn_chorus: That begs the greater question, how do I take a screenshot from the live CD?
[10:17] <heroin> cormarrr: use the screenshot tool
[10:17] <Sevensins> if i start jokosher all works just fine cos its set to automatic detection but as soon as i choose alsa as soundarch. and ca0160 as soundcard all stops working
[10:18] <dawn_chorus> cormarrr, print-screen button
[10:18] <mikeyhatesms> i cant defrag windows its not open only live cd running, and shooot, somebody is at the door will have to continue later, thank you, i'm sorrry
[10:18] <Sevensins> before i hear the mic when i talk in it but then i dont hear it no mor ...heroin still with me?
[10:18] <idefixx> iMammal_: happens... ok. to get it working comment >all< the debian stuff in sources.list and put the ubuntu archives in. after that run 'sudo apt-get update' and 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' that should install ubuntu.
[10:18] <heroin> Sevensins: kinda i dont have a mic and 0 exp with it
[10:19] <sarthor> Hi. how to start squid, dhcpd and named services at boot time in my ubuntu Fiesty.... no GUI installed..
[10:19] <Sevensins> okay so ill search another room for my question
[10:19] <idefixx> iMammal_: but since all this is no sure thing. BACKUP your stuff before you do that!
[10:19] <falin> hay alguien en espaol
[10:19] <cormarrr> dawn_chorus: I tried that, nothing happens when I try to paste it into GIMP
[10:20] <master5o1> idefixx, do you know what has happened to http://counter.li.org ?
[10:20] <dawn_chorus> cormarrr, why are you using GIMP?  print-screen will produce a file while you will upload to imageshack.
[10:20] <dawn_chorus> *which you will upload
[10:20] <dawn_chorus> stupid fingers
[10:20] <idefixx> master5o1: why would i?
[10:20] <cormarrr> dawn_chorus: When I hit Print Screen nothing seems to happen
[10:20] <master5o1> Sevensins, do you know what has happened to http://counter.li.org ?
[10:20] <master5o1> because you might
[10:20] <dawn_chorus> ah great.  the gutsy install is moving along.  :)
[10:20] <master5o1> it appears to be down... but :S
[10:20] <iMammal_> idefixx: updating... I have no personal data. just debian packages.  I'll do an ubuntu pxeboot if all crashes and burns.
[10:21] <dawn_chorus> cormarrr, try the GNOME menu.  Applications > Accessories > Screen Shot, I think.
[10:22] <fulcilives> I've only been playing around with Ubuntu for a short time but I just read about Mint Linux (based on Ubuntu) and it sounds interesting. Anyone here ever try Mint Linux?
[10:22] <anathematic> if i was hypothetically intelligent enough to change my administrative account by accident so i've locked myself out of everything what would be the best option to get root access again? (other than format)
[10:22] <master5o1> ubotu
[10:22] <idefixx> iMammal_: im pretty sure its gonna work i dont see why not.. but if you got nothing to lose theres nothing to worry.
[10:23] <heroin> anathematic: use a liveCD to reset root pass
[10:23] <heroin> !botsnack
[10:23] <ubotu> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[10:23] <anathematic> heroin: okay thank you that was what i was thinking woudl be the best solution =)
[10:24] <cormarrr> dawn_chorus: okay, registering an account with the screenshot now
[10:24] <pak33m> anybody help im trying to get wired and wireless connections on my laptop and i get the following in syslog: ubuntu NetworkManager: <WARNING>^I nm_device_802_11_wireless_get_mode (): error getting card mode on eth2: Resource temporaily unavailble
[10:24] <idefixx> iMammal_: one thing i forgot.. did you ever add third party source to the directory /etc/apt/sources.list.d/? if so remove them before updateing.
[10:24] <iMammal_> idefixx: nope.
[10:25] <fulcilives> Is anyone aware of a good link to a website that explains well (in simple English) how to use Wine (I have a few Windows programs that I've read work with Wine but after looking at Wine ... well ... I'm lost)
[10:25] <idefixx> iMammal_: good luck then.

[10:26] <dawn_chorus> cormarrr, :)  you've got a period after the forward slash.  get rid of the period.

[10:32] <cormarrr> dawn_chorus: Originally it was part of the 8GB "restore" partition on my HP laptop, but I resized it down to a 2GB SWAP and it made the other 6GB unusable, not sure at all about the random 1GB

[10:39] <Ka|Ra> then you say ii
[10:39] <user222> hello, is there an irc channel for linuxmint that any of you are aware of?
[10:39] <Ka|Ra> i mean nothing at all

[10:39] <heroin> holycow: cd ~/.trash yielded cannot find

[10:40] <gameserver> eagles0513875, glitch
[10:40] <eagles0513875> how can i fix it
[10:40] <gameserver> eagles0513875, try running it manually
[10:41] <gameserver> !fsck
[10:41] <eagles0513875> what u mean
[10:41] <ubotu> fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot
[10:41] <dawn_chorus> heroin, .Trash (upper case t)
[10:41] <zeeeee> help - after i successfully mounted a sshfs, i have to be su to access it. how can i avoid this?
[10:41] <eagles0513875> well its booting at startup but for some reason it keeps giving a sig 3 and restarting constantly
[10:41] <eagles0513875> so what u r telling me is to run sudo shutdown -F -r now

[10:43] <ubotu> WorldDomination: 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

[10:46] <actualandrew> sudo
[10:46] <BlendArt> MoooOOO
[10:46] <twikesh> !root | WrongT
[10:46] <ubotu> WrongT: 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
[10:46] <whta> anyone know how to install a firefox theme from a .jar file?
[10:47] <gameserver> WrongT, if you deperately need to become root, as your sudo user type "sudo -i"

[10:47] <dougb> is there a reason why i can't connect to my work computer? when i go to browse it in firefox, it shows that it has the correct software installed to run a web server, but when i ping it, it doesn't find it
[10:47] <vip3rousmango> Anyone know where the XMMS Skins folder is?? I need to put my skins in there.. and I have no clue where it is

[10:48] <gameserver> dougb, you set up an apache server on your work computer, and you cannot access it from home, this is your problem correct?
[10:48] <whta> vip3r: ~/.xmms/
[10:48] <twikesh> vip3rousmango: iirc, it's ~/.xmms /skins
[10:48] <linuxor77> HI, I'm new, How do I know which kind of modem I have? and if it is installed or not? thx
[10:48] <holycow> heroin, thats just the .Trash folder in your home dir
[10:48] <gameserver> linuxor77, what kind of what?
[10:48] <holycow> i.e. view / hidden
[10:48] <linuxor77> modem
[10:48] <dougb> no, its windows 2003 and i've enabled whatever the windows service is for web hosting.  viewing it that way works appropriately, but when i try to ping it, nothing happens
[10:48] <holycow> your just looking in the wrong dir, but yes that is anice shortcut
[10:48] <vip3rousmango> oh shit eh
[10:48] <vip3rousmango> kthnx
[10:48] <gameserver> linuxor77, modems are poorly supported in linux, but probably lspci or lsusb depending on the modem
[10:49] <heroin> holycow: no its not
[10:49] <holycow> yes
[10:49] <holycow> yes it ids
[10:49] <holycow> your looking in the wrong place
[10:49] <heroin> holycow: perhaps for nautilus but not for KONQEUROR
[10:49] <holycow> heroin, no for ALL UNIX
[10:49] <holycow> including bsd
[10:49] <holycow> period.
[10:49] <actualandrew> log into it and check iuts firweall
[10:49] <gameserver> dougb, what is the ip address you are trying to ping?  if it is 192.x.x.x or 127.x.x.x or 10.x.x.x it will not work from your home network
[10:50] <dougb> its not
[10:50] <holycow> your looking in the WRONG folder, i.e. you think your in your home folder but not
[10:50] <holycow> it happens
[10:50] <heroin> holycow: well well well.. ur wrong
[10:50] <idefixx> no kde uses /.local/share/Trash
[10:50] <holycow> lol
[10:50] <dougb> i know it works because i had XP installed on my computer about an hour ago and it was connected fine
[10:50] <WorldDomination> gameserver: is the vnc version the one from www.tightvnc.com ?
[10:50] <heroin> there read idefixx words holycow
[10:50] <holycow> suit your self
[10:50] <heroin> holycow: i just did
[10:50] <dougb> and i know its on because in firefox, it shows the "under construction" page set up by IIS
[10:50] <gameserver> WorldDomination, I'm not sure, I dont use vnc, it's aweful insecure, thats why I reccomend you stick with ssh
[10:50] <holycow> congratulations
[10:50] <holycow> :)
[10:50] <heroin> holycow: thanks
[10:50] <linuxor77> gameserver, thx , I used lspci I found graphic and wireless card and ... but not find modem
[10:50] <gameserver> dougb, how are you trying to connect to the webserver from linux
[10:51] <gameserver> linuxor77, how is it connected to your computer?
[10:51] <WorldDomination> hm
[10:51] <linuxor77> gameserver, intern
[10:51] <gameserver> dougb, How are you trying to connect to it?
[10:51] <WorldDomination> with the lan it should be ok no ?
[10:51] <vip3rousmango> how do you navigate to the xmms skins folder via natuilus? and ~/.xmms/skin didn't work in console
[10:51] <dougb> the webserver has nothing to do with it, i was just testing to see if the computer was on.  i'm trying to connect to it using PPTP because it's set up on the server
[10:51] <vip3rousmango> er.. terminal
[10:51] <linuxor77> gameserver, laptop
[10:52] <dougb> what is weird is that firefox shows the "under construction" page showing that it can connect to it, but doing a simple ping command in the terminal shows no response from it
[10:52] <BlendArt> Ching Chang walla walla bing bang
[10:53] <Ra|Ka> hae, carn anyone save me?
[10:53] <twikesh> vip3rousmango: View > Show Hidden Files
[10:53] <CaptainMorgan> !kompare
[10:53] <holycow> vip3rousmango, try ~/.xmms first
[10:53] <BlendArt> save?
[10:53] <gameserver> dougb, I'm not sure why that, sorry
[10:53] <holycow> it could be the skin folder doesn't exist
[10:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kompare - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:53] <gameserver> linuxor77, Most of them use pci, so it should be showing up inh lspci
[10:53] <holycow> vip3rousmango, also go to your home dir and press ctrl /h to view hidden files in nautilus to peek
[10:53] <vip3rousmango> ahh
[10:53] <gameserver> linuxor77, check lspci -v
[10:53] <dawn_chorus> aptitude is pulling in ubuntu-desktop well, but when I run tasksel, synaptic crashes.  hmm ...
[10:53] <actualandrew> dougbwhat about the port?
[10:53] <vip3rousmango> holycow: thanks, i'll give it a shot
[10:54] <dawn_chorus> i mean aptitude crashes, it's getting late.
[10:54] <actualandrew> dougb: is it on 22?
[10:54] <dougb> the ports are correct
[10:54] <dougb> if i was to go onto a windows machine, it would connect fine
[10:55] <dougb> and it would ping it fine
[10:55] <actualandrew> dougb: i see
[10:55] <actualandrew> dougb: im new :- )
[10:55] <logmein> dougb: umm cat resolv.conf does it output?
[10:55] <dougb> and i doubt it could be a firewall issue only because firefox can connect to it
[10:56] <logmein> dougb: what page is this again?
[10:56] <dougb> logmein: the firefox page is a simple "under construction" page
[10:56] <zero-9376> can someone recommend a light web server that will give user directories and allow css styles
[10:56] <dougb> me viewing it shows that the computer is on, so if i type in the IP through there it finds it, but if i ping it, it does nothing
[10:57] <logmein> zero-9376: try lighttpd
[10:57] <vip3rousmango> If I run a setup .exe via Wine, where is it actually installing since there is no C:\Program Files\<app>.. etc?
[10:57] <logmein> dougb: so if you enter IP in browser it goes there but if you use dns name it doesn't right?
[10:57] <dougb> exactly
[10:57] <Myrtti> vip3rousmango: .wine/drive_c/program
[10:57] <zero-9376> logmein: i tried lighhtpd but it wouldnt allow styles in f-spot exports to display, they would show for a second then go again
[10:57] <Myrtti> vip3rousmango: etc
[10:58] <logmein> vip3rousmango: that is in your /home/user directory where myrtti said
[10:58] <linuxor77> gameserver, thx but sorry I didn't find it, I know that it's "conexant" but didn't find it even with lspci | grep conexant
[10:58] <liri> Ubuntu Dapper livecd is loading up with low resolution, and so I can't access the installer, is there any workaround for this?
[10:59] <dougb> i even have XP installed in vmware server, and it can go to the page in internet explorer but can't connect through those means of VPN
[10:59] <vip3rousmango> ahhh ok so everything installed is in home as a hiddin file with the beginning .?
[10:59] <phonepapit> weird
[10:59] <holycow> vip3rousmango, yupper
[11:00] <reverseblade> liri, why not try fiesty ?
[11:00] <WrongT> where i can find softowere for ubuntu linux?
[11:00] <vip3rousmango> cool cool :) im learning :D
[11:00] <reverseblade> WrongT, in synaptic package manager ?
[11:00] <yknott> WrongT: add/remove programs
[11:00] <moDumass> evening all, i updated the kernel, and now my x server worn start, i tried a few walkthrough fixes that i found via google. can anyone please help since im kinda stuck in mud here
[11:00] <WorldDomination> gameserver hm I got an ssh connection from my windows client computer to the ubuntu server, and open up vnc client toconnect to the server... surprise the connection is not tunneled
[11:00] <liri> reverseblade: I can't, I can use only Dapper.
[11:01] <reverseblade> moDumass, using nvidia ?
[11:01] <WrongT> but other programs ?
[11:01] <yknott> WrongT: or http://archive.ubuntu.com/
[11:01] <amnesia> hi
[11:01] <WrongT> ok thx
[11:01] <reverseblade> WrongT, any source code you can compile runs on linux also
[11:01] <moDumass> reverseblade correct indeed
[11:01] <reverseblade> WrongT,  mean ubuntu
[11:01] <reverseblade> moDumass, what driver are you using ?
[11:01] <liri> reverseblade: I have tried so many things, booting with safe graphics, booting with removing the 'splash' boot command, when loading up I tried to play with dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg but still nothing. I am unable to get a decent resolution to complete an install.
[11:02] <reverseblade> moDumass, nvidia-glx-new or, binary downloaded from nvidia.com
[11:02] <liri> reverseblade: the card I believe is matrox or something like that. It's a 1u HP Proliant dl140 server
[11:02] <Zack> Hey guys i keep getting stuck in terminal installing an application, Help?
[11:02] <moDumass> reverse blade, at the mo i think im stuck with glx-new
[11:02] <reverseblade> liri, why can't you try something other than dapper ?
[11:02] <WorldDomination> hm.
[11:02] <liri> reverseblade: I can't because the software I am using is based on Dapper so I just can't.
[11:03] <moDumass> reverseblade : but i may be wrong, this has been a multistage multirepear issue
[11:03] <reverseblade> moDumass, ok try installing 'linux-generic' package and reboot, if it doesn't work still download the binary driver from nvidia.com, that should work as last resort
[11:03] <Zack> Terminal problem
[11:03] <reverseblade> moDumass, no as long as you don't have linux-generic package installed, everytime kernel upgrades, your x will be broken
[11:03] <Zack> please
[11:04] <reverseblade> Zack, more specific ?
[11:04] <fury> hi, how do i get ubuntu to recognize my USB stuff? i'm running 7.04 now, i plodded through the install with just the keyboard thinking it probably didn't have the right usb drivers in the livecd...but it's fully installed now and still none of my USB devices work
[11:04] <moDumass> reverseblade how would i go back to default generic package
[11:04] <Zack> I am trying to install a program and i keep getting stuck
[11:04] <fury> mouse, hard drive, and hub
[11:04] <reverseblade> moDumass, just do as I said
[11:04] <fury> the hard drive is connected via the hub, and the mouse used to be, but i tried connecting the mouse directly to a usb port on the back of the puter
[11:04] <reverseblade> Zack, what program and how are you trying to install
[11:04] <moDumass> reverseblade oh yeh, ive done an upgrade before but its not playing nice today
[11:05] <timtux> Has anyone tried Nexenta OS ?
[11:05] <yknott> fury: plug one of them into the computer, then us know what lsusb gives
[11:05] <scorp123> timtux: yes, I did.
[11:05] <reverseblade> moDumass, as told ,last resort would be to download from nvidia.com , that it should work any case
[11:05] <WorldDomination> well shit I dont know how to tunnel it
[11:05] <Zack> Reverseblade: a Kiba-Dock
[11:05] <moDumass> reverseblade, i dont think i was here for your description, could someone please copy/paste it for me
[11:05] <fury> Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
[11:05] <timtux> scorp123, pro/cons?
[11:06] <fury> that repeats with Bus 001 adn then Bus 002
[11:06] <fury> same other info
[11:06] <reverseblade> moDumass, huh ?
[11:06] <Zack> Reverseblade: KibaDock
[11:06] <moDumass> reverseblade, how would i use default drivers?
[11:06] <moDumass> im getting no options..
[11:06] <WorldDomination> can anybody tell me how to tunnel vnc over ssh from windows client to ubuntu server ?
[11:06] <reverseblade> Zack, never heard, google it or search it in forums
[11:06] <scorp123> timtux: nice idea, but not ready for prime-time yet
[11:06] <moDumass> i mashed somewhere horribly
[11:07] <WorldDomination> tightvnc got no option for that. I got 2 puttys open on windows, openssh server up and running on ubuntu, as well as the vnc server
[11:07] <reverseblade> moDumass, what do you mean by default ? You either use open source drivers or binary drivers
[11:07] <baconbits> I'm having problems installing VLC..."sudo apt-get install vlc" isn't working for some reason.
[11:07] <scorp123> timtux: same with Belenix ... that's another "GNU/Solaris+Debian" combo
[11:07] <Zack> Reverseblade: i have, and i have the code but im stuck on one line that just will not work.
[11:07] <WorldDomination> and it wont work
[11:08] <reverseblade> moDumass, the defeault use to be open source , which is nvidia-glx
[11:08] <yknott> WorldDomination: i suggest logging in via ssh, launching the vnc server there and the client too, which gets displayed back to your local x, running xming for example
[11:08] <scorp123> WorldDomination: you need to make your tunnels right
[11:08] <reverseblade> and not nvidia-glx-new
[11:08] <Zack> Reverseblade: I can send you the site address in a PM.
[11:08] <yknott> WorldDomination: or give freenx a try!!
[11:08] <reverseblade> Zack, are you trying to compile it from source ?
[11:08] <scorp123> WorldDomination: tightVNC has nothing to do with that, it's all done via the SSH clients, e.g. Putty in your case.
[11:08] <primski> yep, freenx gets my vote too
[11:08] <Zack> yes..
[11:08] <WorldDomination> yes but putty wont tunnel as it seems
[11:08] <fury> the results of lsusb are the same if i unplug my hub
[11:08] <reverseblade> Zack, what error do you get ?
[11:08] <primski> been using vnc for a long time now, but recently switched to NX, much better
[11:08] <scorp123> WorldDomination: then you didn't configure it right
[11:08] <primski> even supports copy-paste
[11:08] <WorldDomination> there is not option on tunneling
[11:08] <timtux> scorp123, right :)
[11:08] <fury> just the same 3 lines
[11:08] <yknott> putty sets up the tunnels ... if you tell it to!
[11:08] <timtux> scorp123, i would like to se a GNU/Solaris+Arch ;D
[11:08] <yknott> WorldDomination:  sure there are, i have used it before for that
[11:08] <WorldDomination> scorp123 well what is there to configure ? I got putty running
[11:08] <WorldDomination> and connected
[11:09] <timtux> scorp123, well, gonna try it out with mmware
[11:09] <scorp123> timtux: There is a package called "pkg-get" which you can add to Solaris 10 ....
[11:09] <Zack> It keeps telling me that "no file or directory exists" but i have all  of the supporting applications installed
[11:09] <yknott> WorldDomination:  before you connect with putty, in the configuration you need to set some options
[11:09] <WorldDomination> well what option
[11:09] <idefixx> WorldDomination: there is even a command line tool in the putty suite that does nothing but tunnel
[11:09] <scorp123> timtux: it is similar to "apt-get" and lets you install stuff from repos ....
[11:09] <WorldDomination> there is not tunneling option
[11:09] <baconbits> I'm having problems installing VLC..."sudo apt-get install vlc" isn't working for some reason.  I have a pastebin of my install attempt...
[11:09] <baconbits> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25935/
[11:09] <reverseblade> Zack, you are not very specific, but try to install  *-dev packages instead of normal dependencies
[11:09] <scorp123> WorldDomination: check the putty settings ... Besides this isn't the Putty support channel last time I checked. :-)
[11:10] <scorp123> WorldDomination: I outright refuse to support Windows software. Thank you and bye bye.
[11:10] <walla> anyone know how to make the workspace switcher transparent in beryl?
[11:10] <Zack> Reverseblade: look in your PM
[11:10] <holycow> scorp123, lol me too actually
[11:10] <Zack> That is what i am working with
[11:10] <yknott> WorldDomination: connection/ssh/tunnels
[11:10] <yknott> you mean you do not see that?
[11:11] <fury> yknott: whether i plug or unplug the hub, or plug th emouse into the hub, or directly to the puter, lsusb output is the same - Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 / Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 / Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
[11:11] <yknott> baconbits: update your lists sudo aptitude update
[11:11] <yknott> fury: anything more with lsusb -n
[11:11] <yknott> btw, do you have usb disabled in bios, wink
[11:11] <fury> says invalid option -n
[11:11] <fury> and no, lol
[11:11] <fury> usb is set to 1.1+2.0 in bios
[11:12] <baconbits> A general question, what's the difference between aptitude and apt-get?
[11:12] <reverseblade> baconbits, try some other repo ,or download it from VLC's site
[11:12] <fury> i tried setting usb mouse support to os or bios, neither one makes a difference to ubuntu
[11:12] <moDumass> im using a nvidia geforce fx5950ultra and when i select admin>restricted drivers, i type in my root PWD and it returns "your hardware does not need any restricted drivers"
[11:12] <Zack> Reverseblade: could you not see the address?
[11:12] <yknott> fury: ah that was for lspci, well you could try verbose but i am guess nothing
[11:12] <reverseblade> baconbits, aptitude has a console based text gui and also remove the orphan packages
[11:12] <reverseblade> Zack, no
[11:12] <yknott> or you could take a look at dmesg |tail  when you connect the device
[11:12] <Zack> Hum..
[11:12] <fury> lsusb -v spits out some stuff including "hub", "unused", and then a long string at the end of "Operation not permitted"
[11:13] <baconbits> reverseblade, the VLC site tells me sudo apt-get install, it doesn't seem to have a download.
[11:13] <reverseblade> baconbits, impossible
[11:13] <vip3rousmango> I have a logitec wireless usbmoter mouse.. is there any way to get it working for linux? would it auto install the drivers if thats what it needs? I have the disk with the drivers and whatnot but I dont know if that would work thru WINE
[11:13] <actualandrew> check the packages
[11:13] <actualandrew> w00t
[11:13] <phonepapit> w00t too
[11:13] <fury> dmesg shows "new high USB device ..." then "device not accepting address 9" or "address 10" both ending with "error -71"
[11:13] <Supaplex> chicks dig packages. and so do internet spiders.
[11:14] <vip3rousmango> ahaha
[11:14] <fury> high speed* usb device
[11:14] <reverseblade> baconbits, you are not using the same repos, that VLC suggests, add those repos and try again
[11:14] <Zack> Reverseblade: could you tell me what the "./autogen.sh" command does?
[11:14] <fury> forgive me. i've been up for 24 hours now. :x
[11:15] <fury> in fact i'm getting those same messages over and over again with incremental address numbers
[11:15] <WorldDomination> hm tunneling works, but I receive a "connection closed" from my vnc viewer
[11:15] <fury> it's up to 67 now
[11:15] <fury> 115
[11:15] <yknott> fury: have you checked http://www.linux-usb.org/FAQ.html
[11:15] <reverseblade> Zack, that depends from application, typically you should call ./configure , make , and sudo make install . Read the README or INSTALL file within your package, or you can check the shell file with less xx.sh
[11:15] <fury> device descriptor read/64, error -71
[11:15] <yknott> WorldDomination: too many login attempts?
[11:15] <fury> ok hang on
[11:15] <phonepapit> fury.-..you should get some sleep then
[11:16] <yknott> fury: specifically http://www.linux-usb.org/FAQ.html#ts6
[11:16] <reverseblade> baconbits, there is also source code available there you can compile manually as a last resort
[11:17] <NeXtDaY> hi all
[11:19] <WorldDomination> :/
[11:19] <WorldDomination> yknott: putty opens up the tunnel
[11:19] <moDumass> failed to start X server. where do i look to fix this...? any help much appreciated
[11:20] <WorldDomination> the problem is I cant figure out why vnc wont work over the tunnel. I mean is there a file where I can see what connections have been refused ?
[11:20] <reverseblade> moDumass, have you installed linux-generic ?
[11:20] <fury> yknott: "rmmod ehci-hcd" is this command reversible if it makes things worse?
[11:20] <sarthor> Hi.. with apt-get -y install squid  ... i am getting this msg...in the drive '/cdrom/' and press enter... While i have no CD room drive plugged.. What to do.. how to tell to ubuntu.. to get pkg from internet
[11:20] <WorldDomination> the vnc client gives me "connection closed"
[11:20] <yknott> fury: that just unloads that module
[11:20] <WorldDomination> which basically means there was a rejected attempt
[11:20] <reverseblade> WorldDomination, this is not a help channel for VNC
[11:20] <fury> i'm a bit new to running linux on a home computer...last time i tried it, i was 7 years younger and it looked a lot different :P
[11:20] <fury> ok
[11:20] <yknott> fury: so modprobe ehci-hcd would put it back
[11:20] <cmo-0> i'm using ubuntu 7.04, and i'm trying to run ruby script at the boot time. till now i couldn't get it to start each time i reboot the machine. the script i'm using is located here http://www.simplisticcomplexity.com/2006/9/26/start-and-stop-all-your-mongrel_cluster-processes
[11:21] <cmo-0> i tried running it using sudo it works while i'm logged in. what is the best way to debug such script at boot time.
[11:21] <phonepapit> 0
[11:21] <yknott> fury: but i am guessing that is the module for 2.0 usb, removing it would put you back to 1.1
[11:21] <reverseblade> cmo-0, try #linux as well
[11:21] <moDumass> reverse blade yes i have
[11:22] <zaggynl> Does anyone know how to limit bandwidth with x11vnc?
[11:22] <WorldDomination> ...
[11:22] <cmo-0> kinshin: okay
[11:22] <zaggynl> I'm testing it over LAN now, and it eats up to 1MB/s, I doubt it'll be usefull over internet that way :(
[11:22] <fury> usb 1.0 would be fine by me if it at least got my usb devices recognized.
[11:22] <moDumass> reverseblade yes i have installed "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx"
[11:22] <tonsofpcs> zaggynl: kill
[11:22] <fury> and nope, removing that module didn't work :(
[11:22] <moDumass> but no love
[11:23] <zaggynl> tonsofpcs, come again?
[11:23] <sarthor> every day i use to come here to this channel.. and ask for help.. but no one replied.. i am also able to be helpd.
[11:23] <sarthor> Hi.. with apt-get -y install squid  ... i am getting this msg...in the drive '/cdrom/' and press enter... While i have no CD room drive plugged.. What to do.. how to tell to ubuntu.. to get pkg from internet
[11:24] <zaggynl> tonsofpcs, what should I kill
[11:24] <tonsofpcs> zaggynl: if you kill the process, it won't take bandwidth
[11:24] <zaggynl> haha
[11:24] <sivaji_> how to  check my ram size
[11:24] <zaggynl> I do have to use it you know :P
[11:25] <alsa> im using Feisty and trying to connect to wireless router via a RT2500 card
[11:25] <fury> cat /proc/interrupts shows the interrupt count for ohci_hcd:usb3 and ehci_hcd:usb2 going up... but the interrupt count for ohci_hcd:usb1 and ohci1394 is the same.
[11:25] <alsa> im having problem connecting and read on forums there is a lot of problems with the rt2500 driver on feisty
[11:25] <alsa> is it worth going back to dapper
[11:26] <alsa> ?
[11:26] <Cromag> sarthor
[11:26] <moDumass> once i have installed nvidia-glx how do i make my machine use that as the driver for y vid card?
[11:26] <WorldDomination> hm it's strange.
[11:26] <sarthor> Cromag, Yes
[11:26] <Cromag> sivaji_: in your sources.list i believe that you CD-rom is listed.
[11:26] <WorldDomination> I get "connection closed.
[11:27] <yknott> fury: there were some other suggestions at http://www.linux-usb.org/notAcceptFeedback.html   including using either pci-noacpi or acpi=off as a boot option
[11:27] <sivaji_> Cromag ya i got it  "free -m"
[11:27] <Cromag> sivaji_: oh sorry... my bad wrong nick :x
[11:27] <Cromag> sarthor: in your sources.list i believe that you CD-rom is listed.
[11:28] <d-b> I'm having problems mounting
[11:28] <WorldDomination> why is the connection closed on the server side ? maybe a security setting within ubuntu ?
[11:28] <sarthor> Cromag, i am checking.. .while i am new to linux.. will be back if i got stuck
[11:28] <Cromag> sarthor: i will be here ;)
[11:28] <fury> ok. any solution that would make it so my dad doesn't have to go into the bios and change any settings to switch to the other OS? cause i read somewhere on that site that somebody shutting off assign IRQ for USB fixed their problem.. i am assuming that will break Windows
[11:28] <yknott> WorldDomination: ubuntu is shipped with no open outside ports
[11:29] <eagles0513875> im on the live cd but for some reason regardless what i do im always getting that exit 3 regardless what i do
[11:29] <fury> i'm setting this up for him so he has something to use the next time Windows breaks...hes' had to reinstall Windows more often than me in the past 2 months
[11:29] <fury> and that's alarming
[11:29] <yknott> :D
[11:29] <eagles0513875> im on the live cd but for some reason regardless what i do im always getting that exit 3 regardless what i do when i run fsck at start up
[11:29] <fury> :P
[11:29] <yknott> fury: try the irq thing, it may not break windows, worth a shot anyway
[11:29] <WorldDomination> yknott well but.. if the vnc session is tunneled over ssh, and the ssh connection works, it should be no port problem right ?
[11:30] <fury> alrighty. will do, thanks for all your help :) see you in a bit if it doesn't work...if it does, i'm calling it a night :P
[11:30] <yknott> WorldDomination: where is the vnc viewer?
[11:31] <WorldDomination> on my windows client. and the ssh tunnel session opens, I m able to login, and it works
[11:31] <Tom__> Morning All! - I have just plugged my Ubuntu box directly into my router (ethernet) and i can ping it from all my other workstations on the network - but this box will not connect to the net, it can ping the router and everything - any ideas?
[11:31] <WorldDomination> vncserver is running on ubuntu, and when I connect through the tightvnc client, it tells me "connection closed"
[11:31] <eagles0513875> try resetting the router
[11:31] <sarthor> Cromag, Thank.. Done my friend..
[11:32] <Tom__> Eagles: Sure - 2 moments :)
[11:32] <eagles0513875> lol
[11:32] <yknott> WorldDomination: so my guess is that the tunnels are not right
[11:32] <WorldDomination> yknott - why do I get the ssh tunneling connection then
[11:33] <sarthor> once more Question.. that.. how can i setup squid, dhcpd, named to run at boot time
[11:33] <yknott> you can log in through ssh right?
[11:33] <yknott> port 22?
[11:33] <WorldDomination> yes
[11:33] <yknott> ok where is the tunneling there?
[11:33] <Frogzoo> sarthor: the pkgs all come preconfig'd to start at boot
[11:33] <WorldDomination> I crossed the tunneling option in putty
[11:33] <WorldDomination> and entered port 5900
[11:34] <sarthor> Frogzoo, If i have disabled some of pkg not to run at boot time.. then now how to enable it for starting at boot time
[11:34] <Yorick> Keyboard question; is it possible to set a Windows-like keyboard layout (US International) but without having 'dead keys' when following a quote (') by a character that doesn't come with an accent, such as the t in doesn't?
[11:34] <yknott> ok and to which server are you connecting in your vncviewer on your windows machine? localhost:5900 ?
[11:34] <Frogzoo> sarthor: remove the package & reinstall
[11:34] <WorldDomination> yes
[11:34] <Cromag> sarthor: :)
[11:35] <yknott> WorldDomination:  perhaps this guide will help, http://www.maths.utas.edu.au/People/Hill/vnc/vnc.html
[11:35] <sarthor> Frogzoo, OK... a bit strange :)
[11:35] <Tom__> Eagles: Same problem still =( Any other ideas?
[11:35] <baconbits> Ok I'm having major issues now
[11:35] <Cromag> sarthor: hmm that im not sure of... but one sec.
[11:35] <sarthor> Cromag, OK.. waiting.
[11:35] <Frogzoo> !runlevels
[11:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about runlevels - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:37] <Frogzoo> sarthor: for the actuall details, 'man boot-scripts' & 'man update-rc.d'
[11:37] <sarthor> Frogzoo, OK, Thank you brothers.
[11:38] <baconbits> I went through installing compiz today...via Xgl.  I was just in here a second ago, and for the first time ever, linux LOCKED UP.  I rebooted and then the splash screen froze when it said "Nautilus" at the bottom...My windows don't have bars at the tops of them so some windows I just can't close at all...what is wrong with everything?
[11:38] <Frogzoo> sarthor: yw
[11:40] <sivaji_> is kubuntu supports multiprocessor system ?
[11:40] <Tom__> Hey everyone! I have a ubuntu box plugged directly into my router with a static ip - i can ping and remote onto this from every other workstation on the network but the ubuntu box cannot connect to the net - any ideas why? :S
[11:40] <Yorick> sivaji_, yes
[11:40] <kruuli> could someone point me to a good guid for via unichrome vga in ubuntu?
[11:40] <kruuli> found some but they are all pretty old
[11:41] <baconbits> I also don't have a task bar
[11:41] <WorldDomination> well - connection closed. strange.
[11:41] <greamn> hey if bunzip2 and bzcat are just symlinks to bzip2 how does it know if your runing bzcat or bunzip2?
[11:41] <greamn> is it something to do with the symlinks?
[11:42] <slain> hello all
[11:42] <Frogzoo> greamn: it pulls it from the environment ARG[0] 
[11:42] <greamn> or does the package just know what smlink started it?
[11:42] <WorldDomination> yknott: to what remote port should I map the local 5900 port ?
[11:42] <greamn> Frogzoo: it?
[11:42] <greamn> bzip2?
[11:43] <Frogzoo> greamn: apps know what name was used to start them - it's an environment argument
[11:43] <fury> nope... still couldn't get it to work. changed "Assign IRQ to USB" to "No"
[11:43] <greamn> Frogzoo: ah ok so the package knows
[11:43] <greamn> thaks
[11:43] <vip3rousmango> Does anyone know if I can install Diablo 2 + LoD / Starcraft + Broodwar thru Wine?
[11:43] <greamn> thanks
[11:43] <fury> how's the acpi=off option work?
[11:44] <Frogzoo> !appdb | vip3rousmango
[11:44] <ubotu> vip3rousmango: Appdb is a database of apps & help for programs that run under wine: see http://appdb.winehq.org
[11:44] <yknott> WorldDomination: i guess the same as your vncserver is accepting connections
[11:44] <fury> i.e. how do i do it with ubuntu
[11:44] <vip3rousmango> oh sweet, thanks
[11:44] <Little_Pig> hello
[11:45] <Little_Pig> new to IRC, hope i dont do anything stupid
[11:45] <jeayese> hello there
[11:45] <PsyKid> Hello.
[11:45] <jeayese> I really need some help
[11:45] <Frogzoo> vip3rousmango: if you're trying to get games to run, don't use the ubuntu repo which is dated, use the budgetdedicated repo mentioned in the ubuntu wiki doc
[11:45] <jeayese> really badly
[11:45] <ziroday> !welcome | Little_Pig
[11:45] <ubotu> Little_Pig: Welcome to #ubuntu - the Ubuntu support channel.
[11:45] <Tom__> Hey everyone! I have a ubuntu box plugged directly into my router with a static ip - i can ping and remote onto this from every other workstation on the network but the ubuntu box cannot connect to the net - any ideas why? :S
[11:45] <PsyKid> Anyone is willing to help me with WUBI and UBUNTU ?
[11:45] <yknott> fury: you can edit the boot menu or you can just try it once by pressing esc when prompted then entering it as kernel parameters
[11:45] <WorldDomination> yknott: which is 5900 by default ? there is no single switch or parameter for tightvncserver specifying the port it listens to
[11:46] <yknott> WorldDomination: correct
[11:46] <jeayese> I really need help with ubuntu, if any tech support is available please message me
[11:46] <Gwen> yo
[11:46] <yknott> WorldDomination: so you can connect to the server without heading through the tunnel to access port 5900 on the server?
[11:46] <Frogzoo> jeayese: you're not helping us help you - just taking up chan space - just state your prob without the prelims
[11:46] <slain> jeayese, what problem are you having
[11:46] <WorldDomination> no, yknott.
[11:46] <fury> ok, thanks :)
[11:46] <fury> brb
[11:47] <Tom__> Jayese: Tell people your problem =)
[11:47] <mdke_> does anyone know how to add midi support for gstreamer applications?
[11:47] <WorldDomination> I can open up ssh to the server, I can open up a tunneling connection to the server
[11:47] <yknott> o i thought you mentioned you did it but it was not through the tunnel
[11:47] <OmegaCenti> Night!
[11:47] <jeayese> I am new to Ubuntu, I have got a new ATI card right, and i set it all up.. I dont know if i did it right.. anyways The desktop effects dont seem to want to start.. and I dont know what to do.
[11:48] <yknott> WorldDomination: have you already tested that vncserver is accepting connections?
[11:48] <PsyKid> Guys, i`m trying to install UBUNTU using WUBI, but when it loads it says : unable to mount /sys ...and later then ... it says can not UNMOUNT /dev/sda1 , for the process to continue! Help please!

[12:14] <vip3rousmango> its not to hard man, all you have to do is fly around the planet and you'll leap a whole day forward in time :p
[12:14] <Yorick> Zoffix, Filezilla is capable of SFTP I think
[12:14] <BlendArt> LOl
[12:14] <jeayese> slain so far so good
[12:15] <jeayese> its downloading beryl
[12:15] <vip3rousmango> well ok, now a whole day more like 13 hours..
[12:16] <slain_> I am back, sorry my router froze up on me
[12:16] <luca____> tokj, non ti cerco, ma perche stai uscendo da tutti i canali?
[12:16] <luca____> -_-
[12:16] <obi_1> Indeed 7.0, but the problem remains (I've checked on several forums and I found such probs, but I have no luck with fixing it on my side)
[12:16] <farstrider> Deon, good old Telkom SA Ha Ha!!
[12:17] <jeayese> farstrider check neowin PM :)
[12:17] <slain_> farstrider how is jase coming along
[12:17] <jeayese> its downloading the beryl files
[12:17] <slain_> jeayese, sorry about that my router froze on me
[12:17] <jeayese> from the soruce
[12:17] <jeayese> np
[12:17] <jeayese> happends most of the time to me
[12:17] <farstrider> He was busy downloading Beryl
[12:18] <slain_> jeayese did you click reload in synaptic package manager
[12:18] <jeayese> yep
[12:18] <HoocH_> this is really getting enoying :o(
[12:18] <Zoffix> Yorick, hm, thanks, but it seems it's for Windows and I have no clue how to compile source without a make file.
[12:18] <marfeath> I'm trying to get apache2's webdav working.  The module is loading and i can attempt to log in, but it always says I have the wrong password.  The log confirms this is the problem, but i have reset the password with digest several times but it didn't work, anyone have any other ideas of what it could be?
[12:18] <HoocH_> Comp keeps freezing up every so often
[12:18] <jeayese> this is the only reason i have not switched to ubuntu yet, all i want to do is have a nice interface, play my games..
[12:19] <Zoffix> "FileZilla is a powerful FTP-client for Windows NT4, 2000 and XP."
[12:19] <slain_> jeayese, playing game on linux is not very good
[12:19] <Yorick> Zoffix, ah sorry, I expected it'd be multi platform
[12:19] <jeayese> howcome?
[12:19] <vip3rousmango> dude, linux blows for gaming
[12:19] <Zoffix> ...
[12:19] <jeayese> I heard its much faster on linx than windows.
[12:20] <marfeath> vip3rousmango, says the man who hasn't done his research...
[12:20] <vip3rousmango> yeah if it works with linux..
[12:20] <jeayese> well Wine
[12:20] <Zoffix> jeayese, I know people playing WoW on Ubuntu and say that it runs better than on Windows
[12:20] <Yorick> Zoffix, not exactly sure, but perhaps gFTP is, havent got it installed right now so I cant tell you for sure
[12:20] <slain_> jeayese, there are very few games written for linux,
[12:20] <jeayese> i know
[12:20] <Zoffix> Yorick, that's what I've used and it seems to not have support for sFTP
[12:20] <jeayese> I want to play CS Source.
[12:20] <vip3rousmango> marfeath: im saying it blows because not all developers develop for linux, not that it doesnt work with linux, fuck man linux can run anything if you want it too.. its open source :p
[12:20] <Zoffix> jeayese, IIRC there is a Linux port
[12:20] <slain_> jeayese, a person can get games written for windows to work in linux, but the windows games will play better on windows
[12:20] <jeayese> it is said that it works in wine
[12:21] <jeayese> A linux port?
[12:21] <slain_> jeayese mostly only the older games
[12:21] <HoocH_> this really suck, no error reports in syslog either
[12:21] <Yorick> Zoffix, then I'm afraid I cant quite help you
[12:21] <marfeath> go to getdeb and look at what they have available, warsow, armagetron, xmoto, alien arena, all great games.  Doom 3, unreal tournament, there are alot of commercial games
[12:21] <Zoffix> jeayese, point is still that most Linux users don't use it to play games.
[12:21] <vip3rousmango> you wont find fear/prey/UTIII/anything extrememly graphics heavy
[12:22] <jeayese> *sigh*
[12:22] <obi_1> so, anyone? (I mean the Installation problem)
[12:22] <jeayese> but many have reported that CS Source works with Wine.
[12:22] <vip3rousmango> yup
[12:22] <slain_> jeayese games that have linux ports are as follows, quake, doom, unreal tournament
[12:22] <vip3rousmango> CS Sorces works fine, im playing 1.6 on my laptop :P
[12:22] <marfeath> jeayese, I'm one of them, it works
[12:22] <jeayese> thats the problem i have it already
[12:22] <slain_> jeayese, yes cs source does work fine in wine
[12:22] <heroin> vip3rousmango: cs1.6 ftw
[12:22] <jeayese> its just the game loads and its very choppy
[12:23] <vip3rousmango> heroin: what?
[12:23] <kingcobraeire> can somebody please tell me is there a command to find which version of ubuntu a system is
[12:23] <WrongT> sombody help me to run *.exe files on ubuntu
[12:23] <pupi120290> use wine to run *.exe files
[12:23] <vip3rousmango> yeah
[12:23] <jeayese> ha im a n00b and i know the answer to that
[12:23] <jeayese> WINE
[12:23] <pupi120290> just apt-get install wine
[12:23] <heroin> !wine | WrongT
[12:23] <ubotu> WrongT: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[12:23] <pupi120290> all finisched
[12:24] <WrongT> wine where i can get him
[12:24] <vip3rousmango> they told you
[12:24] <vip3rousmango> apt-get install wine
[12:24] <jeayese> guys
[12:24] <alwa> sudo apt-get install wine
[12:24] <jeayese> maybe he does not know how the terminal works
[12:24] <jeayese> i sure didnt
[12:24] <WrongT> ok thx
[12:24] <jeayese> took me a while
[12:24] <sarthor> Hi where i start /etc/init.d/shaper start.... i got the error CBQ: no configuration files found in /etc/shaper!....where will be shaper config file
[12:24] <vip3rousmango> true
[12:24] <slain_> and dont forget
[12:25] <slain_> sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts
[12:25] <alwa> :)
[12:25] <jeayese> why couldent the driver installations be so easy..
[12:25] <jeayese> why all this coding
[12:25] <kingcobraeire> can somebody please tell me is there a command to find which version of ubuntu a system is please
[12:25] <jeayese> isnt there a way to do this via GUI window
[12:25] <varka> kingcobraeire: lsb_release .a
[12:25] <varka> kingcobraeire: lsb_release -a
[12:25] <alwa> and if you want something a little graphic run winefile after install ;)
[12:26] <kingcobraeire> varka thanks very much
[12:26] <slain_> jeayese the driver install is easy, but setting up xgl for 3d effects is a bit hard for ati cards
[12:26] <jeayese> ok
[12:26] <alwa> kingcobra: lsb_release
[12:26] <jeayese> do you know why CS Source is choppy when it loads?
[12:26] <liri> reverseblade: are you still around?
[12:26] <slain_> ati drivers suck under linux
[12:26] <vip3rousmango> jeayese: beacuse it's going though wine, and it takes a little longer
[12:26] <hackle577> why is my GNOME panel not completely one color when i boot?
[12:27] <liri> reverseblade: I might have some ideas which are workarounds to that resolution problem...
[12:27] <reverseblade> liri, always
[12:27] <jeayese> so wine is like an emulation
[12:27] <slain_> wine is more like a wrapper
[12:27] <jeayese> I will not be able to play my games on High?
[12:27] <reverseblade> jeayese, Wine Is Not an Emulator
[12:27] <vip3rousmango> ahhh if u want to learn about wine read it on the site
[12:27] <hackle577> reverseblade: beat me to it :-P
[12:27] <liri> reverseblade: ok. I was thinking of maybe trying to run the installer through ssh, remotely so that it appears on my system. Do you think it would work?
[12:28] <reverseblade> liri, no
[12:28] <mark_> im looking for a package for a friend who doesn't have the internet on his ubuntu computer.
[12:28] <mark_> the needed package is nvidia-glx for an AMD64.Anyone one know where I can get a *.deb
[12:28] <reverseblade> liri, as said I don't get why you don't try fiesty
[12:28] <alwa> jeayese: if you want to play win
[12:28] <liri> reverseblade: it wouldn't work?
[12:28] <jeayese> Slain its done
[12:28] <alwa> jeayese: maybe you should look at cedega
[12:28] <reverseblade> liri, I don't think it would matter
[12:28] <jeayese> I launched the manager
[12:28] <jeayese> and this happend
[12:28] <jeayese> Checking for XComposite extension               : failed
[12:28] <jeayese> No composite extension
[12:28] <jeayese> beryl: No composite extension
[12:29] <jeayese> ... I have no idea what that means.
[12:29] <reverseblade> jeayese, google it
[12:29] <jeayese> I came here for help not to be told to google it
[12:29] <reverseblade> jeayese, what is the output of glxinfo | grep direct
[12:29] <jeayese> I have been gooogleing it for 2 days now
[12:29] <slain_> cedega is much better than wine when it comes to games on linux
[12:30] <vip3rousmango> slain_: is it easyer to install D2 + LoD / SC + Broodwar with cedega rather than Wine?
[12:30] <hackle577> mark_: is this it? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/warty/+package/nvidia-glx
[12:30] <hackle577> oops wait no
[12:30] <hackle577> that's warty
[12:30] <reverseblade> slain_, but it is not free, I don't get it, I would prefer buying windows and run it on a VM instead of paying 5 dolar per mo
[12:30] <slain_> jeayese if you are done with the tutorial now, when you logout and click on sessions and choose xgl, then you can start up beryl-manager
[12:31] <whta> what's that gmail application i see occasionally in people's trays?
[12:31] <reverseblade> checkgmail
[12:31] <jeayese> ok
[12:31] <jeayese> ill be back
[12:31] <vip3rousmango> gmail notifyer?
[12:31] <assasukasse> i prefer mail notification
[12:31] <Zoffix> Yorick, oh, I found filezilla in the repos :)
[12:31] <slain_> reverseblade cedega is better then playing games via a vm
[12:31] <reverseblade> slain_, bs
[12:32] <Tom__> Guys - is there any Apache Experts around? I am trying to setup a "name" for the new apache server...how do i go about this - ive read a few google guide but am getting some mixed messages
[12:32] <whta> uhh yeah gmail notifier. never mind, i'll just google it like I should have in the first palce.
[12:32] <reverseblade> Tom__, tried #apache ?
[12:32] <vip3rousmango> whta: there is a ubuntu equivilent if you look under the add/remove apps
[12:32] <Tom__> reverseblade: Nope - but thankks =)
[12:32] <sarthor> Hi where i start /etc/init.d/shaper start.... i got the error CBQ: no configuration files found in /etc/shaper!....where will be shaper config file
[12:32] <slain_> reverseblade, vm does not have accelerated graphics
[12:33] <djm62> excuse me, can anyone tell me how to disable graphics by default in Epiphany?
[12:33] <pupi120291> is therer any network-expert around. i dns does not function
[12:33] <reverseblade> slain_, true, but you cannot run directx on wine any case , so if it is all about software rendering with opengl and hadware renderdering on opengl, that depends on the game
[12:33] <whta> vip3r: it's not in any menus i have
[12:33] <pupi120291> i have a modem
[12:33] <lwilke> Hi, has anybody experienced problems with apache 1.3.34-2 on 6.06 LTS? The thing is crashing about once every two week and can only be restarted after kill -9
[12:33] <pupi120291> which is connect with a router
[12:33] <alwa> Tom: is it the servername you want to set?
[12:33] <hackle577> mark_: try this: http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/x11/nvidia-glx
[12:34] <whta> ah never mind, had to enable more software.
[12:34] <reverseblade> lwilke, checked the logs ?
[12:34] <pupi120291> the computers are connected with the router
[12:34] <jeayese> ok i see the beyrl manager now
[12:34] <kingcobraeire> varka alwa do you know what the version of the ubuntu or kubuntu desktop means
[12:34] <vip3rousmango> whta: make sure you have "all available applications" under the show menu
[12:34] <moDumass> reverseblade, so i installed the default nvidia drivers "sudo adpt-get install nvidia-glx" but when i restart x, it fails to start and i dont know where to look?Q
[12:34] <pupi120291> if i ping a computer the ip-adress is not found
[12:35] <slain_> jeayese sweet, so are you in your xgl session now ?
[12:35] <reverseblade> moDumass, why don't you download the binary drivers from nvidia.com as I told you about 2h ago
[12:35] <varka> kingcobraeire: i think i dont really understand your question
[12:35] <jeayese> umm
[12:35] <jeayese> sorry what?
[12:35] <lwilke> reverseblade: yes nothing in there, but hm, i could turn the level up to debug
[12:35] <jeayese> xgl?
[12:35] <hackle577> mark_: is that what you were looking for?
[12:35] <moDumass> sorry reverseblade, i have no idea how to do that
[12:35] <moDumass> im using another laptop here,
[12:36] <kingcobraeire> varka in synaptic ubuntu desktop has a version of 1.43
[12:36] <kingcobraeire> varka what does that mean
[12:36] <vip3rousmango> whta: sudo apt-get install gmail-notify
[12:36] <reverseblade> moDumass, go to www.nvidia.com -> drivers -> linux driver and download, if you cannot run a browser than , take a note of the url and use wget to download the file
[12:36] <NeXtDaY> whats the best program to convert audio files to mp3 in ubuntu?
[12:36] <slain_> jeayese, before you logged back into linux, click on sessions, then select "GNOME with XGL"
[12:36] <jeayese> ahhhhhhh
[12:36] <jeayese> ok
[12:36] <jeayese> brb
[12:37] <hackle577> NeXtDaY: I use SoundConverter
[12:37] <pupi120291> flac, i think
[12:37] <pupi120291> to convert to mp3-files
[12:37] <varka> kingcobraeire: its just the version of the metapackage that has the dependencies for the appropiate desktop environment, in fact it doesnt mean anything for the common user :)
[12:37] <sarthor> any one famileir with trickle.. i want to shape bandwidth for my network as 8 KB/sec. any help??
[12:37] <NeXtDaY> flac ?
[12:37] <moDumass> my machine, is mashed thanks reverseblade, im onto it
[12:37] <NeXtDaY> hackle577: ok.
[12:38] <goldzahn> hi all
[12:38] <jeayese> ok
[12:38] <jeayese> done
[12:38] <pupi120291> no its lame to convert audio-files to mp3-files
[12:38] <jeayese> im in xgl session
[12:38] <slain_> jeayese cool
[12:38] <goldzahn> where can i get libqt4 4.2.1
[12:38] <jeayese> now what :S
[12:38] <slain_> jeayese now run beryl-manager
[12:38] <hackle577> NeXtDaY: with SoundConverter you can go back and forth from Ogg, MP3, FLAC, and WAV
[12:38] <diazepam> hi guys - anyone know what the term "Ubuntu Malone" is referring to?
[12:38] <jeayese> am
[12:38] <obi_1_> hmm, my ubuntu version seems to have bug, it said that Warsaw is in GMT+2
[12:39] <kingcobraeire> varka ok well does each metapackage version mean a ubuntu version
[12:39] <jeayese> what do i do when i run beryl manager?
[12:39] <kingcobraeire> like does 1.43 = ubuntu feisty
[12:39] <NeXtDaY> hackle577: do I do sudo apt-get install soundconverter?
[12:39] <jeayese> OMG
[12:39] <jeayese> it works
[12:39] <jeayese> the desktop effects
[12:39] <slain_> jeayese, is beryl-manager running at the moment
[12:39] <igxmyzt> Hi guys, I have ubuntu on my other hard drive, windows on this one. Booting my pc goes to the other HD's grub so i can choose if i want windows or ubuntu. What would i do if my ubuntu drive failed to get it to boot only from the windows drive?
[12:39] <varka> kingcobraeire: no, definetely not
[12:39] <jeayese> i went to turn on desktop effects
[12:39] <jeayese> and it worked
[12:39] <mark_> moDumass: Have you changed the entry in your xorg.conf to nvidia from nv / vesa
[12:39] <farstrider> Hey Jase pretty cool huh!!
[12:40] <liri> reverseblade: thanks but no thanks, I was able to do it just fine with x11forwarding.
[12:40] <WeeJeWel> igxmyzt, make a partition
[12:40] <jeayese> yes
[12:40] <slain_> jeayese, I am glad that I could help you
[12:40] <jeayese> Thanks
[12:40] <SlimeyPete> igxmyzt: just change the boot order in your bios,or physically swap the disks
[12:40] <jeayese> A MILLION!
[12:40] <hackle577> NeXtDaY: it's in Add/Remove
[12:40] <WeeJeWel> on the windows drive
[12:40] <goldzahn> where can ig et newer version of libqt4 than in the ubuntu repositories?
[12:40] <James_M> igxmyzt you are here again too?
[12:40] <farstrider> Thanks Deon very cool of you dude!
[12:40] <NeXtDaY> hackle577: ok thank you
[12:40] <igxmyzt> yes, i am. my ubuntu disk is about to die
[12:40] <jeayese> so i can edit my effects using the manager?
[12:40] <varka> kingcobraeire: you always have only metapackages of one particular version of ubuntu in your repository, the one you are currently running
[12:41] <James_M> Hmm... I still have yet to get my nVidia drivers to work.
[12:41] <igxmyzt> how do you change the boot order in bios? i only get options of USB vs. hard disk C:\
[12:41] <reverseblade> goldzahn, you can always get the source code and compile
[12:41] <slain_> jeayese, yup
[12:41] <James_M> I have had to reinstall Ubuntu 2 times.
[12:41] <kingcobraeire> varka ok
[12:41] <jeayese> I LOVE YOU!
[12:41] <varka> kingcobraeire: if you want to install another version, you have to upgrade and therefore you would have to change your repositories to the appropiate version
[12:41] <James_M> I keep messing up the X server.
[12:41] <goldzahn> reverseblade: okay and where can iget the source code?
[12:41] <SlimeyPete> igxmyzt: ah... some bioses give more options than others. yours is evidently a bit naff. You'll need to physically swap the disks.
[12:42] <slain_> :-) hehehehehe
[12:42] <jeayese> ill brb :)
[12:42] <SlimeyPete> igxmyzt: or rather, swap the cables they're connected to
[12:42] <igxmyzt> SlimeyPete: how do i physically swap them? the jumpers don't work on my bios, it fails to recognize the drive if i move a jumper
[12:42] <reverseblade> arghh  goldzahn , just google it
[12:42] <mihai_> #
[12:42] <igxmyzt> SlimeyPete: will that still work if the ubuntu drive is dead?
[12:42] <moDumass> mark, i may have, someone told me to try to restart using vesausing sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh
[12:42] <pupi120291> our computers are connected with a router. on lan the router has the ip-adress 192.168.1.1; netmask 255.255.255.0. on wan the router has the ip-adress 192.168.0.2. the router is connected to the modem. which has the ip-adress 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0. the modem is connected to the internet.
[12:42] <pupi120291> the computers get the ip-adress with dhcp. on the router-configuration all computers are schown with the ip-adress.
[12:42] <pupi120291> if i ping computer_a no the ip-adress could not be found.
[12:42] <pupi120291> what should i do to make dns function?
[12:42] <SlimeyPete> igxmyzt: try just pulling the ribbon cable out of one and plugging it in to the other
[12:43] <igxmyzt> SlimeyPete: i've removed the ubuntu drive before completely and it said failed to load grub error 21
[12:43] <SlimeyPete> igxmyzt: yeah,should do
[12:43] <igxmyzt> SlimeyPete: so switching them would def. work?
[12:43] <moDumass> mark so should i do that but choose nvidia?
[12:43] <SlimeyPete> igxmyzt: oh... that suggests that grub is on the windows drive
[12:43] <James_M> Someone else needs nVidia help?
[12:43] <SlimeyPete> igxmyzt: because otherwise grub wouldn't execute at all if you removed the ubuntu drive
[12:43] <igxmyzt> SlimeyPete: any chance grub saved itself to bios?
[12:44] <SlimeyPete> igxmyzt: no chance. Grub doesn't do that (no program should, unless you are deliberately upgrading your bios)
[12:44] <SlimeyPete> igxmyzt: I think the switching cables thing will still work, though
[12:44] <farstrider> Jase, Deon (Slain) will be back later I will see you on the forum!
[12:44] <SlimeyPete> igxmyzt: the best thing to do is to try it and see. If it doesn't work then you can always switch the cables back.
[12:45] <igxmyzt> SlimeyPete: so if it loads on the windows drive, what should i do? hit f12 on boot and select load windows normally?
[12:45] <hackle577> why do some parts of my GNOME panel revert to the default color after I boot?
[12:45] <James_M> Can anyone tell me how to get nVidia drivers for my 8800? I keep trying but it messes up my X server and I have to reinstall Ubuntu.
[12:45] <igxmyzt> SlimeyPete: or can i remove grub?
[12:45] <Lamego> James_M, you don't need to reinstall ubuntu just because you break your X config
[12:45] <Lamego> if you do break the X config, you just go to the console and reset to a default config
[12:45] <James_M> Oh. I don't know how to fix it, that is why I reinstall.
[12:46] <vip3rousmango> yikes!
[12:46] <Lamego> James_M, CTRL-ALT-F1 to go to the console
[12:46] <James_M> It is fine right now.
[12:46] <Lamego> login and typoe sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:46] <SlimeyPete> igxmyzt: you can remove grub once you're in Windows. If grub does load, you may find that you need to press e to edit the windows option, then change the HD it's looking at (because your Windows HD will now be eg hd(0,1) instead of (1,1))
[12:46] <kingcobraeire> varka do you know the command to upgrade to the latest version
[12:46] <Lamego> I am just teaching in case you need it
[12:46] <James_M> ctrl-alt-f1? It doesn't work.
[12:46] <SlimeyPete> igxmyzt: but once you've edited it,it should still boot windows
[12:46] <Lamego> if you are playing with X drivers, you will probably need it
[12:46] <kingcobraeire> varka also what do you mean change your repositories to the appropiate version
[12:47] <jeayese> ok back
[12:47] <igxmyzt> SlimeyPete: any idea why if i remove the ubuntu drive, grub says Error: 21 and crashes?
[12:47] <SlimeyPete> igxmyzt: and once windows is up you can run fdisk /mbr from a DOS prompt to get rid of grub
[12:47] <James_M> One sec. I have another computer that I have been using while messing with this one.
[12:47] <igxmyzt> SlimeyPete: will i need a disc/floppy for that, or can i do it in cmd.exe?
[12:47] <SlimeyPete> igxmyzt: at a guess, you left it for a few seconds and it started trying to load ubuntu (it will load the default OS after 5 secs if you don't select another option from the grub menu)
[12:47] <James_M> Ok, ctrl-alt-f1
[12:47] <James_M> then what?
[12:47] <SlimeyPete> igxmyzt: you can do it in cmd.exe
[12:48] <igxmyzt> SlimeyPete: it did it as soon as it loaded
[12:48] <farstrider> Hi again Jase Deon (Slain) said to say he will be back later, he had to go I will see you on the forum!
[12:48] <jeayese> is Cedega free?
[12:48] <James_M> I don't think so.
[12:48] <slain_> nope
[12:48] <heroin> jeayese: i dont know i always torrent it
[12:48] <jeayese> whats a good torrent app for ubuntu?
[12:48] <James_M> Lamengo then what do I do?
[12:48] <SlimeyPete> igxmyzt: hrm. That's... odd. I would suggest swapping the cables and seeing if the same thing happens. If it does then it looks like your problem is morecomplicated than I can handle. If not then you're OK :)
[12:48] <farstrider> I see Slain is still here!
[12:49] <heroin> jeayese: utorrent 8) just cant beat that windows ap
[12:49] <slain_> busy getting ready to leave shortly
[12:49] <jeayese> does that work on linux now :O
[12:49] <heroin> jeayese: w. wine yes
[12:49] <IRC_> hi
[12:49] <jeayese> sigh.
[12:49] <James_M> I don't know how to use Wine ^_^
[12:49] <kingcobraeire> does somebody know the command to upgrade to the latest version
[12:49] <igxmyzt> SlimeyPete: every problem with this comp seems too hard to handle. I dont know if its the junk dell bios or the celeron processor =X
[12:49] <jeayese> yeah i dont know how to use wine :P
[12:49] <James_M> What type of Dell?
[12:49] <SlimeyPete> igxmyzt: probably the Dell bios ;)
[12:50] <jeayese> is there a torrent app for ubuntu?
[12:50] <SlimeyPete> kingcobraeire: upgrade-manager -c I think, but don't quote me. It's something like that.
[12:50] <igxmyzt> Alright, im'a enjoy oblivion til my computer messes up again.
[12:50] <kingcobraeire> jeayese azureus
[12:50] <SlimeyPete> jeayese: yes, lots. Ktorrent, bittorrent, bittornado, azureus
[12:50] <James_M> I have never even seen my Dimension 3000 BIOS. I got a BAD bug one time and tried to get in safe mode. Turns out I can't >.<
[12:50] <SlimeyPete> jeayese: there are various others too. Search for "torrent" in Synaptic.
[12:51] <tarelerulz> any of you ever use gUach E imporved  v 1.0.5?
[12:51] <heroin> James_M: its simple
[12:51] <James_M> No, but I would like to know what happened to that guy.
[12:51] <heroin> kingcobraeire: apt-get update then upgrade
[12:51] <jeayese> downloading ktorrent
[12:51] <jeayese> now
[12:51] <Shaddox> Hi everyone. What is the most commonly used 3D modelling and animating program that works on Ubuntu?
[12:51] <lwilke> jeayese: apt-cache search torrent
[12:51] <kingcobraeire> slimeypete ok thanks
[12:51] <heroin> James_M: whcih 1?
[12:51] <djm62> Shaddox: blender
[12:51] <SlimeyPete> jeayese: personally I prefer ktorrent, it's lighter than azuerus but quite featureful
[12:51] <farstrider> Ktorrent is also pretty good!
[12:51] <kingcobraeire> varka you there?
[12:51] <heroin> jeayese: u can use bittorent orginal client and ktorrent.. in my expiernce.. they suck
[12:51] <jeayese> is Cedega better than wine?
[12:52] <James_M> Lamengo. He was telling me how to set my X configuration to default so I don't have to keep reinstalling Ubuntu.
[12:52] <SlimeyPete> jeayese: not much. A bit,if you're running games.
[12:52] <heroin> jeayese: for games.. maby i use wine for all my games
[12:52] <Shaddox> jeayese: What are you using Wine for? Cedega is for gaming. I use Wine and CrossOver for all my stuff.
[12:52] <jeayese> do you play your games on high?
[12:52] <preaction> jeayese: cedega is just different, wine actually has better D3D and DX support, cedega has better support for copy protection schemes
[12:52] <alwa> jeayse: quicker, easier, more seductive
[12:52] <heroin> jeayese: i play 1.6 D2 and starcraft
[12:52] <jeayese> im using it to play CS Source.
[12:52] <alwa> but I aggree it's a bit pointless to pay for it
[12:52] <jeayese> are the gfx on high tho
[12:52] <heroin> jeayese: i can play HL2 so source aswell
[12:52] <James_M> I want to learn how to get drivers for my 8800 first. Then I will try and get CS:S first.
[12:53] <heroin> jeayese: yes
[12:53] <heroin> ?
[12:53] <jeayese> ok
[12:53] <preaction> http://winehq.org has a wiki article on the differences between the three wine-branches
[12:53] <Shaddox> jeayese: There's a tutorial somewhere that will get you to use CS Source on regular Wine.
[12:53] <Shaddox> jeayese: Regular Wine is free.
[12:53] <jeayese> i have read it
[12:53] <jeayese> i know
[12:53] <James_M> Later I mean. I own CS:S and I want to play it. But first I need to get my graphics card working.
[12:53] <heroin> James_M: it should work out of the box
[12:53] <hackle577> my GNOME panel has parts of it which revert to the default panel color when I boot. Why?
[12:53] <jeayese> but many are saying that its not that good compared to Cedega
[12:53] <whta> what would be the command for a launcher to just open my home folder?
[12:54] <heroin> Am i the only one who had everything working out of the box on two computer? w. direct rendering and stuff?
[12:54] <Shaddox> djm62, does Blender do animating too, or only modelling?
[12:54] <James_M> No it doesn't. I need the drivers for it first. Seeing as how the drivers CD doesn't have anything for Ubuntu.
[12:54] <heroin> jeayese: many people are dumb.. wine roxks
[12:54] <vip3rousmango> heroin:
[12:54] <vip3rousmango> er.. mine worked outta the box did a fresh install over windows. just said screw it. never really had problems since
[12:54] <heroin> James_M: ubuntu comes w. drivers for u.. first make sure u actually need drivers
[12:54] <James_M> I guess so. My OpenGL thing isn't on, nor Direct Rendering
[12:54] <jeayese> well seeing i got my drivers working fine
[12:54] <jeayese> im going to give wine another go
[12:55] <heroin> vip3rousmango: same and i never needed drivers either
[12:55] <heroin> jeayese: u play css via steam?
[12:55] <jeayese> yeah
[12:55] <heroin> jeayese: because ur going to need tahomma.tff font installed :P
[12:55] <hackle577> whta: "nautilus /home/USERNAME"
[12:55] <jeayese> yep
[12:55] <jeayese> i know
[12:55] <whta> thanks
[12:55] <heroin> jeayese: http://linux-gamers.net
[12:55] <jeayese> and I will need to install the gecko engine
[12:55] <hackle577> whta: that should be it
[12:55] <James_M> They are drivers for a Geforce 8800. Great graphics card, but when I try to play a game, Boson I believe it said several things aren't on.
[12:56] <heroin> James_M: 8800 sounds new..
[12:56] <whta> hackle, yeah it worked. thanks
[12:56] <hackle577> anyone here a GNOME panel wizard?
[12:56] <James_M> Everytime I install the drivers I need it screws up my X server, and had to reinstall. And that guy I was talking to was telling me how. Then he just left.
[12:56] <hackle577> whta: no prob
[12:56] <James_M> 8800 is new :S Real expensive and that is why I am a little P'od that it isn't working.
[12:56] <slain_> cya all later
[12:57] <heroin> James_M: did u check out google or something or the ubutun forums?
[12:57] <midgetg0at> Hi guys, anyone know what repo "libsasl2-module" is in?
[12:57] <heroin> James_M: and u should blaim ATI for being such a hardass about its drivers
[12:57] <James_M> Yes. Everytime I downloaded and installed it it screwed my X server up.
[12:57] <James_M> It isn't an ATI card. It is nVidia.
[12:58] <heroin> James_M: check the internet
[12:58] <predaeus> James_M, just install the restricted drivers from the repositories and also the nvidia-glx package
[12:58] <predaeus> !nvidia | James_M
[12:58] <ubotu> James_M: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:58] <hackle577> midgetg0at: http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/devel/libsasl2-modules
[12:58] <Arthiam> re bonjour
[12:59] <midgetg0at> i'm guessing just change to dapper?
[12:59] <James_M> -.- I do. But it messes up my X server thing. Therefor seeing as how I have had Ubuntu for like 2 days now I don't know how to fix it >.<
[12:59] <lenzzzinoleonard> does any 1 here have experience in configuring USB ADSL modem in ubuntu?
[12:59] <Arthiam> est-ce que quelqu'un parmi vous a install pidgin ?
[12:59] <hackle577> midgetg0at: hmm?
[01:00] <predaeus> James_M, can you use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste your xorg.conf (paste the link to it here) please?
[01:00] <IRC_>  hey, Anyone, Can u tell me the good download-manager for linux
[01:01] <James_M> -.- I am a noob. Ok? I haven't installed the drivers yet, as everytime I do it messes up my GUI. And because I don't know how to fix it I end up reinstalling Ubuntu. Could you please tell me how to fix my X config first before I go off installing stuff that messes it up?
[01:01] <midgetg0at> think i got it, didnt realize i still had 2 universe repo's hashed out.
[01:01] <midgetg0at> thanks though.
[01:02] <hackle577> i need help with my bottom GNOME panel. parts of it arent the right color
[01:02] <confusednoob> how do i tell which kernal is being booted by default?
[01:03] <IRC_>  hey, Anyone, Can u tell me the good download-manager for linux besides wget???
[01:03] <predaeus> confusednoob, the first entry in menu.list is booted by default
[01:03] <confusednoob> ok where do i find that?
[01:03] <predaeus> IRC_, gftp is for ftp transfers, if you are looking for file sharing there is amule for edonkey or azureus/... for torrent...
[01:04] <orbin> hackle577: a screenshot might help.
[01:04] <hackle577> orbin: ok lemme grab on real quick
[01:04] <hackle577> *one
[01:04] <IRC_> what is the link for that
[01:04] <IRC_> ??
[01:04] <James_M> .....
[01:05] <WrongT> directx suport for wine
[01:05] <predaeus> confusednoob, go to /boot/grub and make a copy of menu.lst like "sudo cp menu.lst menu.lst.bak" then open menu.lst  like "gksudo gedit menu.lst"   then look for the entry "default" on top of the file it says 0 by default, read the explanatory text above it and change it to what you like.
[01:05] <WrongT> hoe can i install
[01:05] <lenzzzinoleonard> does any 1 here have experience in configuring USB ADSL modem in ubuntu?
[01:05] <confusednoob> ok ty
[01:06] <orbin> IRC_: those aren't exactly download managers. try d4x
[01:06] <predaeus> !grub | confusednoob
[01:06] <ubotu> confusednoob: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[01:06] <hackle577> orbin: here you go: http://thumbq.com/thumb/show?V0cfEBE-c1
[01:06] <James_M> predaeus. How would I go about fixing my X config if it got messed up?
[01:06] <hackle577> orbin: as you can see, the resize handle things do not change to the panel color unless i "killall gnome-panel"
[01:07] <IRC_> while installing the d4x, i got the problem during configuring?
[01:07] <vip3rousmango> what packages do I need for java?
[01:07] <predaeus> James_M, 1sec, let me check something that you could need for preparation
[01:07] <vip3rousmango> firefox just keeps redirecting me to sun microsystems java download
[01:08] <orbin> hackle577: right-click on the panel > properties >background
[01:08] <hackle577> ok
[01:08] <orbin> hackle577: my guess is you have set it to transparent
[01:09] <orbin> IRC_: configuring?
[01:09] <midgetg0at> hackle577 still having issues...how "exactly" should i add that repo into sources.list for dapper?
[01:09] <James_M> vip3rousmange: If you don't know Sun is the creator of Java so perhaps you should look into the site so as how to download and install it.
[01:09] <hackle577> orbin: nope, it's completely opaque
[01:09] <IRC_> ya, while setting path value for that?
[01:10] <James_M> Try putting Java for Linux into Google.
[01:10] <hackle577> midgetg0at: i just thought you were looking for the package, is the repo information on that page somewhere?
[01:10] <orbin> hackle577: so the solid colour radio button is selected? try switching to "use system theme"
[01:10] <midgetg0at> honestly, i dont know what i'm looking for...
[01:10] <James_M> I believe it should give you the HOWTO
[01:10] <midgetg0at> i just need that package :-/
[01:10] <vip3rousmango> James_M: which do I want for ubuntu? Linux RPM (Self-extracting) or Linux (self-extracting file)
[01:11] <orbin> IRC_: are you talking about compiling it from src?
[01:11] <IRC_> ya
[01:11] <hackle577> orbin: yes, the solid color was selected. if i "use system theme" the handles blend in, as they were already the system theme
[01:11] <James_M> I don't know as I am new to Ubuntu, but....
[01:11] <vip3rousmango> ah ok
[01:11] <vip3rousmango> well i'll try linux and see how it goes, cuz i dunno what RPM is..
[01:11] <James_M> I would see what the difference is first.
[01:11] <orbin> IRC_: no need to.  it's in the repository.
[01:11] <ssam> !java | vip3rousmango
[01:11] <ubotu> vip3rousmango: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[01:11] <predaeus> James_M, can you edit text files in cli?
[01:12] <James_M> In what?
[01:12] <predaeus> command line
[01:12] <orbin> !synaptic > IRC_ (see pm from ubotu)
[01:12] <midgetg0at> hackle577: is the repo url not the link to that page? do i use main restricted? just confused :-/
[01:12] <James_M> The Terminal?
[01:12] <predaeus> James_M, yes
[01:12] <IRC_> ok
[01:12] <James_M> Um... no.
[01:12] <vip3rousmango> ssam: thats great, but I have no clue what it means =b
[01:12] <James_M> I have just put in lines of command to download and install things.
[01:12] <hackle577> midgetg0at: search for it in synaptic
[01:13] <varka> kingcobraeire: from what version to which version do you want to upgrade? as you should skip a version inbetween, its not supported
[01:13] <vip3rousmango> yup, same here
[01:13] <midgetg0at> installed LAMP version.
[01:13] <ssam> vip3rousmango, did you follow the link
[01:13] <Lamego> vip3rousmango, you need the -jre package
[01:13] <Lamego> search for it using the package manager
[01:13] <lenzzzinoleonard> does any 1 here have experience in configuring USB ADSL modem in ubuntu?
[01:13] <orbin> hackle577: but you still get the brown thing?
[01:13] <Lamego> anyway that tip should be updated to java6 :)
[01:14] <James_M> Hello again Lamengo. So, how do I reset my X config?
[01:14] <predaeus> James_M, open a terminal and run "nano" to get the hang of it just type some random stuff then use either ctrl-o to save or ctrl-x to exit followed by y for yes or n for no etc.
[01:15] <James_M> sudo nano right?
[01:15] <lenzzzinoleonard> How do i  add a set of packages to apt
[01:15] <hackle577> orbin: no no no, the brown color is the color I want the panel to be, but when I boot the two handle things do not take that color, they use the system default color
[01:15] <predaeus> James_M, yes you would need sudo to edit system configuration files later on so just train with that
[01:15] <midgetg0at> thats what i'm wondering lenzzz...well, the *correct* way and where to find the repo urls...
[01:15] <James_M> Ok, it seems like a regular text editor.
[01:15] <lenzzzinoleonard> any 1 , How do i  add a set of packages to apt????
[01:15] <predaeus> James_M, yes you can use the option on  the bottom with the ctrl key
[01:15] <predaeus> James_M, write-out means save. etc...
[01:15] <James_M> justify?
[01:16] <predaeus> James_M, no idea, you will not need that.
[01:16] <hackle577> lenzzzinoleonard and James_M: try this http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic/
[01:16] <James_M> Cur Pos? To spell?
[01:16] <Lamego> lenzzzinoleonard, you mean, how do you add a repository ?
[01:16] <predaeus> James_M, now please paste your current xorg.conf to a pastebin so I can see what driver you've got that we can use as a backup if things go wrong
[01:16] <vip3rousmango> thanks, it works.
[01:16] <confusednoob> predaeus:  so basically the kernal listed at the top of the grub menu (esc at boot) is default?
[01:17] <James_M> 1. How do I get that file. 2. Should I install the driver now?
[01:17] <midgetg0at> So...how do i get http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/devel/libsasl2-modules into sources.list?
[01:17] <lenzzzinoleonard> Lamego i wnt to add a group of packeges to reposetry
[01:17] <midgetg0at> i know how to open it, where it is
[01:17] <midgetg0at> but what do i do?
[01:17] <midgetg0at> deb http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/devel/libsasl2-modules dapper universe ?
[01:17] <midgetg0at> not sure what to do about the options, if thats even the right url, etc
[01:17] <Lamego> lenzzzinoleonard, you can't add group of packages to a repository, you can add a repository which includes a group of packages
[01:17] <Woksta> How can I change permissions to read/write for everyone on a USB key automounted on /media/STICK ? I'm livebooting if that makes a difference.
[01:17] <predaeus> confusednoob, since the default entry to be booted is 0, yes
[01:17] <orbin> hackle577: ah, ok.  i thought it was a limitation, but testing it now.  if i choose solid colour and move it all the way to opaque, the handles eventually match the selected colour
[01:18] <Lamego> midgetg0at, be carefull using repositories from 3rd parties
[01:18] <midgetg0at> heh
[01:18] <James_M> I typed in sudo nano xorg.conf and I got a blank thing.
[01:18] <midgetg0at> lets just get it working first
[01:18] <midgetg0at> ;)
[01:18] <midgetg0at> then i'll consider the words of advice
[01:18] <Woksta> ATM I can only read what's on the USB key, I can't write to it
[01:18] <confusednoob> ok ty. i just wasnt sure. i use the low latency kernal but still having latency issues thats why i asked
[01:18] <hackle577> orbin: yeah i can get them to match after some finagling, but shouldnt they match right at bootup? they dont for me
[01:19] <predaeus> James_M, no, just do a "gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf", change nothing, just copy the content of the file to a pastebin and the link to that here
[01:19] <lenzzzinoleonard> Lamego : well u c, internet does not work in ubuntu 4 me.i want to install beryl on it. so i downloaded the packages manually and i want to install the required ones
[01:19] <midgetg0at> bah, whatever, i'll just reinstall and not deal w/ this right now. it's killing my morning
[01:20] <hackle577> !pastebin | James_M
[01:20] <ubotu> James_M: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[01:20] <orbin> hackle577: i usually leave it @ use system theme so never noticed.  so you lose the matching when you reboot?
[01:20] <James_M> Ok, I mistyped
[01:20] <predaeus> confusednoob, to see what kernel you are running, run "dmesg | head" or "uname -r" etc
[01:20] <hackle577> orbin: yep, i can fix it by changing the color and then changing it back, or using killall gnome-panel
[01:21] <James_M> It is empty.
[01:21] <Lamego> lenzzzinoleonard, for that you can use dpkg -i package.deb
[01:21] <Lamego> or gdebi package.deb
[01:21] <varka> lenzzzinoleonard: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LocalAptGetRepository
[01:21] <James_M> I typed in gksudo gedit /etc/x11/xorg.conf
[01:21] <confusednoob> Linux version 2.6.20-16-lowlatency
[01:22] <confusednoob> its the right one idk maybe i have some bad hardware
[01:22] <_spi_> Hi there, if I create a new link in /etc/rcS.d which starting with Sxx why it does't start at boot time?
[01:22] <confusednoob> time for some upgrades anyways
[01:22] <varka> James_M: watch the capitals in the path /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:23] <James_M> Ohhhh.... Didn't realize it was case-sensitive

[01:24] <James_M> How do I post in the post bin? It said I was spamming.
[01:24] <_spi_> All links created in /etc/rcS.d/ which point to root's apps with which users come executed at boot time? (not root)?
[01:25] <midgetg0at> james, just go to http://pastebin.ca
[01:25] <James_M> Yes, midget it is top of the line.
[01:25] <midgetg0at> paste some crap, then paste the url to these guys.
[01:25] <midgetg0at> "paste the url" means, the pastebin site will give you a url after you submit your text so others can view it.
[01:25] <James_M> Should I have it expire the post?
[01:25] <varka> James_M: you definetely have to use the nvidia-glx-new driver not nvidia-glx oder nvidia-glx-legacy
[01:25] <midgetg0at> or better yet, just go to the site - keep your eyes open, and it's pretty easy.
[01:25] <spire> I try to upgrade my grub config by running "grub-install /dev/sda" but it says that: "/dev/sda does not have any corresponding BIOS drive." What to do?
[01:26] <confusednoob> any clue when the ati drivers are gonna be updated in the repo? the current one in the repo breaks user switching
[01:26] <midgetg0at> but why are you waisting an 8800 on linux?
[01:26] <predaeus> varka, is there some differences in the restricted modules packages too?
[01:26] <midgetg0at> you could get by just as well w/ a Voodoo 3500 :)
[01:26] <James_M> What do you mean?
[01:26] <midgetg0at> unless you're dual booting or something...just seems silly.
[01:26] <varka> predaeus: none you have to worry about, if theres a difference, every version is already included
[01:27] <James_M> I HAD Windows but I am not going to go out and buy a new drive just because it wanted to go on a power trip and mess with me.
[01:27] <midgetg0at> whatever you say.
[01:27] <James_M> http://pastebin.ca/571888
[01:27] <predaeus> varka, ok, if you know it works then please lead James_M through this, he probably installed the nvidia-glx at earlier attempts, thats why X failed to start
[01:27] <predaeus> varka, else I'll just continue from my 6800 knowledge
[01:28] <James_M> Anyways I plan on getting Wine and getting CS:S to run ^_^
[01:28] <midgetg0at> or probably tried to install the nvidia beta drivers which gave me a hard time w/ my 7900GTX
[01:28] <midgetg0at> i hope you didnt buy the 8800 just for CS too :)
[01:28] <varka> James_M: there are only 2 commands you have to execute: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new    and after that  sudo nvidia-glx-config enable, then log out and press Control+Alt+Backspace and you're done
[01:28] <James_M> if it messes up how do i reset my X config?
[01:28] <SoftIce> what is the best mail program for gnome
[01:28] <RAOF> James_M, varka: From memory, there's a problem with nVidia 8800 support in the nvidia-glx-new packages.  It's bug #103050
[01:29] <midgetg0at> copy your backup file over the current file
[01:29] <James_M> I have already reinstalled Ubuntu 2-3 times.
[01:29] <hackle577> SoftIce: gmail ;-)
[01:29] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[01:29] <midgetg0at> sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf-backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf something like that....guys?
[01:29] <varka> James_M: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf and then change driver back to "nv" in the Section "Device" if something goes wrong
[01:29] <SoftIce> hackle577: :P
[01:29] <moDumass> hey all, under Section "Device" in XORG.conf, I have Driver "vesa" should i change this to "nvidia"
[01:29] <IndyGunFreak> SoftIce: if you don't want to use Gmail, use Thunderbird
[01:29] <IndyGunFreak> 2.0 just came out.
[01:29] <midgetg0at> yea, dont use gmail. google has enough market share.
[01:29] <hackle577> SoftIce: are you looking for something other than evolution?
[01:29] <SoftIce> IndyGunFreak: is that the best looking mail client?
[01:29] <RAOF> James_M: In order to get your graphics card working, you'll need to install the nVidia.com drivers manually, I'm afraid.
[01:30] <James_M> ROFL I just tryed to copy what you said and magically transfer it to my other PC XD
[01:30] <varka> RAOF: ok, then please lead on James_M as im not aware of that bug
[01:30] <James_M> X.X
[01:30] <SoftIce> hackle577: well first time i've used X windows since around 1997, so kind of looking whats the best for X these days
[01:30] <moDumass> varka haha, ok, so nv, not nvidia
[01:30] <predaeus> James_M, you can get into a terminal/console if X will not start with CTRL-ALT-F1 and back to X with CTRL-ALT-F7  (there are minro differences with X running/not running) but you can use that
[01:30] <IndyGunFreak> SoftIce: best looking?  i'm not sure how a mail client "looks" better than the other, as they all have a fairly basic GUI.., but it looks similar to Outlook express
[01:30] <moDumass> RAOF, im trying to do that too, but im really struggling,
[01:30] <hackle577> SoftIce: i would also say thunderbird then
[01:30] <varka> moDumass: he asked what to do if the nvidia-glx installation fails
[01:30] <DrStrangeLov> how do i enable bitmap fonts in order to get artwiz to work... dpkg-reconfigure something...what exactly. I tried fontconfig doesnt work
[01:30] <predaeus> James_M, try ctrl-alt-F1 and after taht ctrl-alt-f7 now
[01:30] <SoftIce> outlook express looks ugly, prefure something like outlook, with cal, etc
[01:30] <moDumass> varka, yeh im facing the same prob
[01:31] <James_M> What? Sorry I am kind of tired :(
[01:31] <IndyGunFreak> SoftIce: well, then look at Evolution
[01:31] <hackle577> hahaha
[01:31] <moDumass> mine is now set to vesa so that i could get x started
[01:31] <DrStrangeLov> !bitmap
[01:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bitmap - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:31] <SoftIce> hackle577, IndyGunFreak thanks ,let me google that, also secondly what is the best burner software, with nearlly all extentions?
[01:31] <skeff> hi there! I remember trying both i386 and amd64 flavours of Ubuntu on my Athlon 64 3400+ machine. I experienced that the amd64 version was MUCH faster in things like rendering 2d graphics, which is the most noticable thing.  Now I run i386 Ubuntu Feisty on an old laptop (with no 64bit cpu) and this OS feels very slow too.  Shouldn't Ubuntu be as responsive as Windows on the same hardware? Shouldn't Ubuntu have something like a i686 flavour, if that would sp
[01:31] <skeff> eed up the experience?
[01:31] <IndyGunFreak> nearly all extensions?
[01:31] <hackle577> SoftIce: CD burner?
[01:31] <mcscruff> lo all, i have added some new users, how can i have these set to no password, but when they log in for the 1st time it asks to add one
[01:31] <SoftIce> writer software, .iso, que, bin, etc
[01:32] <DrStrangeLov> errr uh, guys, please help?
[01:32] <IndyGunFreak> SoftIce: Gnomebaker or K3b
[01:32] <SoftIce> thanks
[01:32] <IndyGunFreak> SoftIce: if you just installed, youshould have evolution and gnomebaker already
[01:32] <assasukasse> hi, is there anyone who has configured lighttpd and php5?
[01:32] <assasukasse> i can't make it work and i dunno why
[01:32] <James_M> How do I manually install?
[01:32] <hackle577> IndyGunFreak: cant GNOME just write ISOs without another app?
[01:32] <predaeus> skeff, as far as I know the non64 generic kernel is 686
[01:32] <IRC_> hey use xampp 1.6.2
[01:36] <SoftIce> IndyGunFreak: thanks.
[01:36] <IndyGunFreak> hackle577: it can yes, but I've had problem with the isos i use in the default writer, Gnomebaker does a much better job.
[01:36] <IRC_> assasukasse: use xampp 1.6.2
[01:36] <orbin> skeff: how old a computer?
[01:36] <assasukasse> IRC_: what is xampp?
[01:36] <IndyGunFreak> hackle577: also, if you've got some finicky CD/DVD's, Gnomebaker and K3b, will allow you to adjust the speed at which they burn
[01:36] <SoftIce> nice
[01:36] <moDumass> hmm, the nvidia geforce fx 5950 ultra is in the list of known cards but still after upgrading kernel i cant use "restricted drivers"
[01:36] <SoftIce> that helps
[01:36] <James_M> Is ubuntu x86 or x64 ?
[01:36] <IndyGunFreak> i don't believe the default one does that(but it might)
[01:36] <assasukasse> IRC_: no i prefer to stay away from apache
[01:36] <moDumass> it jsut says "your hardware doesnt need it"
[01:36] <hackle577> IndyGunFreak: i think it does
[01:36] <jeayese> allmost finished downloading wine :D
[01:36] <IRC_> that includes all the php 5  package
[01:36] <IndyGunFreak> hackle577: it might, its been a long time since i used it(think dapper),
[01:36] <SlimeyPete> James_M: it's either. There is an x86 version and a 64-bit version.
[01:36] <IRC_> ok
[01:36] <SlimeyPete> James_M: it all depends upon which CD you downloaded
[01:36] <James_M> I downloaded the "desktop" one.
[01:36] <skeff> orbin: A 2.6 GHz Intel Celeron processor. Some 512 MB of RAM
[01:36] <predaeus> moDumass, check if the driver is "nvidia" in the driver section of your xorg.conf, if so you are fine and need no changes. also "glxinfo | grep vendor" will tell
[01:36] <confusednoob> x86=i386
[01:36] <SlimeyPete> James_M: which desktop one?
[01:36] <James_M> # Adds support for new GPUs:
[01:36] <James_M>     * GeForce 8600 GTS
[01:36] <James_M>     * GeForce 8600 GT
[01:36] <James_M>     * GeForce 8600M GT
[01:36] <James_M>     * GeForce 8600M GS Does that mean that the 8800 isn't supported?
[01:36] <SlimeyPete> James_M: i386, or emt64?
[01:36] <moDumass> predaeus, no its not its set to vesa, should i change it?
[01:36] <James_M> i386 I believe
[01:36] <hackle577> orbin: so is this some sort of weird bug or... ?
[01:36] <SlimeyPete> James_M: that's the 32-bit version
[01:36] <predaeus> moDumass, did you install the restricted drivers package and the nvidia-glx package?
[01:36] <James_M> Ok. Thanks, but it doesn't say it adds support for the 8800 :(
[01:37] <moDumass> predaeus i don't know if i installed the restricted package but i installed the nvidia glx package, how do i install the restricted one?
[01:37] <skeff> predaeus: Still if the kernel is 686, the GTK libraries will be 386 compiled, or?
[01:37] <orbin> hackle577: i'd say so.
[01:37] <James_M> .......
[01:37] <predaeus> skeff, I don't know, sorry.
[01:38] <predaeus> moDumass, get linux-restricted-modules for your current kernel version
[01:38] <ootput> howdy, I have a raid partition on two identical disks. but ubuntu is unable to detect the array, but as individual disks
[01:38] <predaeus> moDumass, run synaptic and search for it, and while at it also search for nvidia again and check if you've got nvidia-glx
[01:38] <ootput> how do i get the raid active, to mount it

[01:39] <logmein> umm anyone here know how to setup a wusb54gcs wireless device?
[01:39] <moDumass> predaus, this might be where the problem lies, how do i know my current kernel version, ps sorry if these are noob questions
[01:39] <James_M> Ok. I am at the site but in the release highlights in the list of added supported cards it doesn't say anything for the 8800. Does that mean I am screwed!?
[01:39] <predaeus> moDumass, run "uname -r" alternatively you can also look at "dmesg | head" for more info
[01:40] <varka> James_M: this is the list of the currently supported chipsets supported by the most recent driver http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/100.14.09/README/appendix-a.html
[01:40] <logmein> wusb54gsc I meant.. hmm think I need ndiswrapper but found some odd posts on forum
[01:40] <midgetg0at> James_M: i doubt the 8800 chipset is different than the 86xx - it's probalby just tuned differently.
[01:40] <predaeus> moDumass, don't feel sorry, I had to ask those questions too and I still have to ask questions *g*
[01:41] <James_M> OK dling
[01:41] <confusednoob> you could also install the package straight from nvidia (it may even be a newer driver)
[01:41] <ootput> predaeus: yeah, but how do i initialize the array without having to connect them using mdadm
[01:41] <James_M> God, I hope this time is worth it. I swear if it crashes just ONE time!
[01:41] <jeayese> hey when i press f2 to locate the wine directory what do i type
[01:41] <predaeus> moDumass, when you've got the time read into "man dmesg" "man head" "man uname" etc to get the hang of the commands. basically you should look at man before using any commands recommended here, you never know if somebody is going to fool you.
[01:41] <James_M> Hey it is Linux not Windows, it shouldn't crash ^_^
[01:42] <predaeus> ootput, sorry I don't know anything about setting up a RAID
[01:42] <jeayese> anyone know?

[01:42] <varka> James_M: installing the dirver from the page manually is everything but trivial and you will have to repeat the procedure almost after every kernel-update that arrives. just to make you feel better ;)
[01:42] <James_M> It says it can't run the file.
[01:42] <moDumass> predaues, thanks man, this is his girlfriend he'll probably ask those questions again in a few mins, unless i close this window (he can always scroll up)
[01:42] <orbin> JC_Denton_: use a pastebin please
[01:43] <JC_Denton_> orbin , this works just as well ;)
[01:43] <James_M> So.... meaning I have to keep doing this crap OVER AND OVER AND OVER!?!?
[01:43] <jeayese> hey when i press f2 to locate the wine directory what do i type
[01:44] <James_M> It says it cannot open the file?
[01:44] <jeayese> uh
[01:44] <predaeus> moDumass, you will have to set "nvidia" as driver in xorg.conf instead of "nv" to use it after it is installed. you can do this by hand or better (chagnes other otptions too) run nvidia-xconfig as sudo (it creates a backup of the old config )
[01:44] <jeayese> I tried this: ~/wine
[01:44] <varka> James_M: as the kernel-module needed for the driver to work ist built against the current running kernel and wont work after updating the kernel - yes, you willl
[01:45] <jeayese> and it said: ould not open location 'file:///home/jase/wine'
[01:45] <predaeus> moDumass, if something goes wrong, copy the old config back or chagne the driver back to "nv" by hand. to get into X again
[01:45] <jeayese> could*
[01:45] <moDumass> ok, im back sorry i was using my gfs laptop and she well owns it
[01:45] <James_M> oh well how often does it update?
[01:46] <varka> James_M: cant look into the future im afraid ;)
[01:46] <James_M> Ok. So how do I install the driver? I typed in the command line and it says it can't open it.
[01:47] <James_M> Do, you mean like from Edgy to Feisty update?
[01:47] <James_M> Or, like how Windows updates (every day or 2 :p)

[01:56] <robdeman> folks, I cannot log into Gnome - it hangs after login, empty desktop- .xsession-errors shows that it hangs b/c of "ALSA lib confmisc.c:670:(snd_func_card_driver) cannot find card '0'" (and a whole bunch of other ALSA related errors) -- I do not ened sound at all -- how do I remove all audio stuff from Gnome? I can run Gnome without audio hardware right?
[01:56] <ubuntuEdgy> any one play GRT2 online ?
[01:56] <James_M> Oh. So, it is an enhancement GUI application?
[01:56] <midgetg0at> right
[01:56] <Ilokaasu> i have kubuntu on my laptop. It has KDE by default...
[01:56] <Paddy_EIRE> what must I do for my filesystem to be scanned and corrected of any errors on my next boot?
[01:56] <James_M> What is KDE?
[01:57] <midgetg0at> a version of x
[01:57] <mcscruff> its godlike
[01:57] <midgetg0at> KDE and Gnome are the most popular (only ones?)
[01:57] <Pheanix> mmm.. I will have to rtfm... I was thinking KDE and Gnome to be the same...
[01:57] <James_M> Is it good?
[01:57] <pegstant> anybody with same problems syncronizing a Pocket PC?
[01:57] <ILT> sorry could someone explain how i can install packages on ubuntu?
[01:57] <orbin> midgetg0at: i know a lot of people use fluxbox and xfce
[01:57] <vip3rousmango> go to Add/Remove under the Applications Drop Down menu
[01:57] <Paddy_EIRE> James_M, its a little bloated
[01:57] <mcscruff> midgetg0at, xfce is nice
[01:57] <James_M> What is>
[01:58] <Paddy_EIRE> James_M, kde
[01:58] <James_M> Oh.
[01:58] <ILT> yes but with tar file
[01:58] <ILT> i have to expand them right?
[01:58] <Pheanix> quit
[01:58] <mcscruff> orbin, i prefere xfce over all as its quicker
[01:58] <midgetg0at> orbin, any luck w/ that module(s) thing?
[01:58] <Pheanix> lol  that did not work the way I wanted it to
[01:58] <James_M> I hate it when people don't add sound to their youtube videos
[01:59] <orbin> midgetg0at: dunno what you're doing.  is that the package you're after?
[01:59] <midgetg0at> mind if i pm?
[01:59] <varka> James_M: just an advise, learn how to use your standart ubuntu installation first and then think about alternative windowmanagers like kde or xfce or about eye candy extensions like beryl or compiz
[01:59] <James_M> Yes.
[02:00] <mcscruff> ILT, sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get install filename
[02:00] <James_M> I am going to reboot now.... so if I don't come back. Something messed up :(
[02:00] <ILT> mcsscruff i ll try but it return that i haven t apt or something
[02:00] <orbin> midgetg0at: prefer to keep it in chan as i will probably have no clue
[02:00] <ILT> maybe i have to install apt get
[02:00] <ILT> sorry me, i am a newbie
[02:01] <James_M> cya soon hopefully
[02:01] <ILT> i come across the installation of my usb modem
[02:01] <_Titatovenaar_> what do i need to change in my router settings to get avahi to work without the .local error?
[02:01] <ILT> it gave me a lot of problems
[02:01] <ILT> argh!
[02:02] <mcscruff> ILT, click system - admin - synaptic
[02:02] <ILT> yes...
[02:02] <ILT> and then what should i do?
[02:02] <mcscruff> then install what u want
[02:02] <moDumass> predaeus i installed the nvidia drivers and changed the driver from vesa to nvidia and restarted x but it still fails to laod x server is there some way to start from scratch?
[02:02] <ILT> ahh ok, i have to chose the application right?
[02:02] <mcscruff> :)
[02:02] <ILT> :)
[02:03] <ILT> last question, do you guys develop program in C?
[02:03] <varka> moDumass: what does "egrep -C 2 -n '(EE)|(WW)' /var/log/Xorg.0.log" say?
[02:03] <MateIn4> USB question: how to select second configuration descriptor?
[02:03] <varka> hi Hobbsee
[02:03] <pegstant> Anybody could help me syncronizing A Pocket pc?
[02:04] <ILT> MateIn4 are you installing usb modem?
[02:04] <moDumass> varka, gimme a sec and i shal find out for you
[02:04] <MateIn4> Sort of, my device has two configurations (first is a modem, second is OBEX)

[02:06] <varka> James_M: welcome back
[02:06] <James_M> YAY! My screen resolution is finely better!
[02:06] <varka> moDumass: use a pastebin service
[02:06] <James_M> Besides the fact that it says the drivers CANT be supported I am happy ^_^ Thanks guys.
[02:07] <James_M> My eyes were starting to hate me for such a low res
[02:07] <varka> James_M: type this into terminal: glxinfo | grep rendering    and say that it responds
[02:07] <ILT> bye all! see later
[02:07] <moDumass> gimme 5 im going to go back to vesa and then il use it from within
[02:07] <James_M> do what?
[02:07] <moDumass> im using my gfs laptop here
[02:07] <James_M> direct rendering: Yes. Good?
[02:08] <varka> moDumass: thats not a good idea as changing the driver changes the content of the log also ;)
[02:08] <varka> moDumass: youll have to copy it first
[02:08] <guille> hi
[02:08] <varka> James_M: perfect
[02:08] <moDumass> darn, yeh i cant, im in command line in my machine
[02:08] <guille> I cannot disable the tapping of me touchpad... I've tryed everything, any help?
[02:08] <varka> James_M: ur almost done i think, do you have proper refreshrate of your monitor also?
[02:08] <James_M> What?
[02:09] <guille_> I cannot disable the tapping of me touchpad... I've tryed everything, any help?
[02:09] <AzMoo> Hey, is gaim going to be upgraded to pidgin in ubuntu any time soon/
[02:09] <moDumass> varka, but in short i remember it saying (WW) no nvidia module found
[02:10] <moDumass> im in vesa now though so.. im change it back to nvidia and back out in a second
[02:10] <varka> James_M: i was asking if your monitor is run at a proper refreshrate like 75Hz or above as long as it is no tft. what kind of monitor do you own?
[02:10] <James_M> Hanns G HX192D
[02:11] <varka> moDumass: forget it, thats enough information
[02:11] <moDumass> cool, how did i mash my machine
[02:11] <varka> moDumass: what did you do befor, what have you installed so far?
[02:12] <moDumass> varka, oh man, ive been followinginstructions all day, um, "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx"
[02:12] <moDumass> before that
[02:12] <James_M> Why does my add/remove applications keep closing?
[02:13] <guille_> can anybody help me disabling the tapping of my touchpad
[02:13] <mrmonday> why would I be getting BUG: Soft lock up on CPU#0 at random points, and at the same time it freezes?
[02:13] <moDumass> varka before that sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals --composite
[02:14] <Zelda[] > somone knows how to convert a png file to svg?
[02:14] <orbin> AzMoo: not likely. security updates only iirc
[02:14] <moDumass> varka and before that sudo apt-get update
[02:14] <AzMoo> orbin, dang.
[02:14] <AzMoo> orbin, have to wait for the next major release?
[02:14] <varka> James_M: if you dont have problems with a flickering monitor or a too less resolution your done with your graphicsadapter installation
[02:15] <orbin> AzMoo: http://www.getdeb.net/
[02:15] <James_M> Ok. I love this resolution
[02:15] <MateIn4> Zelda, try http://autotrace.sourceforge.net/
[02:15] <demonstealer> guille_ reduce the sensitivity of your mouse in your keyboard option in system
[02:15] <nhatchimai> /who
[02:16] <varka> moDumass: what type of nvidia card do you own and did you install anything manually by some script before or did you only install nvidia-glx by apt-get?
[02:16] <AzMoo> orbin, wicked thanks :)
[02:16] <Zelda[] > tnk MateIn4
[02:16] <demonstealer> guille_, sorry the mouse option
[02:16] <James_M> Who here knows how VoIP works?
[02:17] <moDumass> varka, its a nvidia geforce fx5950ultra, its on the known cards list, way in the past i may have installed something manually but as far as i can remember its all been by glx or apt get
[02:17] <orbin> AzMoo: not sure how "safe" they are though.
[02:17] <guille_> demonstealer: I just want to disable the tapping
[02:17] <AzMoo> orbin, I'll let you know ;)
[02:17] <moDumass> but since im not really sure what some things do i may have undone some things and redone them many many many times over
[02:18] <varka> moDumass: thats not a very easy situation for me to support you, but i can try if you like
[02:19] <demonstealer> guille_ try sudo apt: rm mouse_tap
[02:20] <Moduliz0r> How can I write the grub-disk to a floppy?
[02:20] <guille_> demonstealer: what's that command????!
[02:21] <perlmonkey> hi guys
[02:21] <Woksta> What permissions number do I need for umask?
[02:21] <Moduliz0r> hi
[02:21] <Moduliz0r> How can I write the grub-disk to a floppy?
[02:21] <perlmonkey> what happened to the nfs-utils package in feisty?
[02:21] <Woksta> I want everyone to have reaad/write access
[02:21] <demonstealer> guille_:did it work
[02:21] <James_M> Where do I find WMV codecs?
[02:21] <Moduliz0r> How can I write the grub-disk to a floppy?
[02:22] <guille_> demonstealer:  sudo apt: rm mouse_tap ? like that?
[02:22] <zewey> Woksta: that'd be 000
[02:22] <Madkiss> s2
[02:22] <Madkiss> err
[02:22] <demonstealer> guille_ yes
[02:22] <Madkiss> xcuse me
[02:22] <moDumass> varka, anything is super at the moment
[02:22] <Moduliz0r> How can I write the grub-disk to a floppy?
[02:22] <varka> James_M: do like is said here and then sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install w32codecs
[02:22] <varka> James_M: http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/repository.php
[02:22] <moDumass> im currently using vesa as the driver because nothing else seems to work
[02:23] <varka> moDumass: as long as you dont need any 3D-acceleration your done, but i dont think you want to miss it, do you?
[02:23] <Moduliz0r> How to write grub-disk to floppy?
[02:23] <guille_> demonstealer: that command does not work
[02:23] <perlmonkey> hi
[02:24] <Moduliz0r> how do I write a floppy image to a floppy?
[02:24] <moDumass> varka, i had fantastic 3d acceleration before upgrading kernel, now i have well, i cant even watch divxs without the machine grinding to a halt
[02:24] <perlmonkey> dd
[02:24] <varka> Moduliz0r: dd
[02:24] <Moduliz0r> ok
[02:24] <Moduliz0r> how do I make use of dd?
[02:24] <orbin> Moduliz0r: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy
[02:24] <perlmonkey> man dd, dd --help
[02:24] <dxdemetriou> when I use "split -b 4300m -d file* file" to split an iso to two dvd5 and "cat file* > file" is safe, or is there a better method?
[02:25] <Frogzoo> moonlite__: would you believe... grub-floppy ?
[02:25] <Moduliz0r> thanks
[02:25] <Frogzoo> Moduliz0r: would you believe... grub-floppy ?
[02:25] <demonstealer> guille_ do you have another system installed on your computer that you can access
[02:25] <Moduliz0r> Well yeah, its on Synaptic :P
[02:25] <Moduliz0r> and I need it to fix my other PC
[02:25] <James_M> uh.... wtf?
[02:25] <perlmonkey> I think I fixed my longstanding nfs problem
[02:25] <guille_> demonstealer: I don't understand what your trying me to do
[02:26] <AzMoo> orbin, Dependency problem with libavahi-compat-howl0 which prevented it being configured, but once I installed that it was all success :)
[02:26] <James_M> I don't get what to do.
[02:26] <moDumasser> hey all
[02:26] <Frogzoo> perlmonkey: nfs is pretty straightforward mostly
[02:26] <perlmonkey> haha frying fish
[02:26] <moDumass> haha
[02:26] <moDumasser> haha
[02:26] <varka> moDumass: then you maybe installed something apart the apt-get nvidia-glx stuff, as the kernel modules are updated like the kernel is but only for the drivers from the official repository. if you installed something manually, you have to compile new kernel modules everytime you install a kernel-update
[02:27] <perlmonkey> Frogzoo: i've had endless problems with it since I started mounting my /home folder...I even switched from Debian to Ubuntu
[02:27] <orbin> AzMoo: good stuff.
[02:27] <demonstealer> guille_ i assume we are talking about disabling your tapping on your laptop mouse
[02:27] <midgetg0at> libapache2-mod-log-sql: Depends libc6 (>= 2.3.6-6) but 2.3.6-0ubuntu20.4 is to be installed
[02:27] <midgetg0at> E: Broken packages
[02:27] <guille_> demonstealer: yeh
[02:27] <midgetg0at> any ideas?
[02:27] <varka> James_M: open System->Administration->Synaptic first and then tell me if your ready
[02:27] <finalbeta> I'm one of those users who doesn't have sound in flash. But there doesn't seem to be a sure fix on google. anyone knows something?
[02:27] <Frogzoo> perlmonkey: tried the new automounter? autofs ?
[02:28] <Frogzoo> finalbeta: feisty?
[02:28] <perlmonkey> Frogzoo: cool I will try it
[02:28] <James_M> it is on
[02:28] <finalbeta> Frogzoo: yes, Flash 9
[02:28] <demonstealer> guille_ do you have a windows OS installed on your computer besides ubuntu?
[02:28] <finalbeta> Frogzoo: Just installed the new Flash 9 Beta update 3. no use
[02:29] <varka> James_M: now go to Preferences->Package Sources or something like it, im sry, but i have everything in german here ;)
[02:29] <perlmonkey> Frogzoo: is there a danger to mounting using the nolock option?
[02:29] <guille_> demonstealer: yeh I did
[02:29] <demonstealer> guille_ do you still have it?
[02:29] <James_M> distribution?
[02:29] <guille_> demonstealer: yeh
[02:30] <varka> James_M: now move to "Third-Party Software", press "Add..." and paste in the appropiate line
[02:30] <perlmonkey> Frogzoo data integrity could be compromised if multiple users are trying to write to shared files?
[02:30] <Frogzoo> perlmonkey: well, if the server crashes, you'll lose any non flushed data, but you can live with that for desktop use mostly
[02:30] <midgetg0at> maybe i just need to run apt-get dist-upgrade
[02:30] <perlmonkey> ok
[02:30] <varka> James_M: you have feisty fawn?
[02:30] <moDumass> varka, so if i installed something manually how do i uninstall it and then install the ubuntu safe version that updates itself
[02:30] <James_M> I don't see what you see. Yes I have Feisty
[02:30] <moDumass> man i need to learn some more words
[02:30] <moDumass> small technical vocab
[02:31] <varka> moDumass: thats the problem, i cant tell you, as i dont know what you installed and what it has changed, sry
[02:31] <Woksta> who pinged me before?
[02:31] <moDumass> darn
[02:31] <perlmonkey> was not I
[02:31] <orbin> finalbeta: had a look at the troubleshooting section here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash ?
[02:31] <moDumass> thats cool, thanks for the help thus far though
[02:31] <perlmonkey> you guys are great
[02:31] <moDumass> im guessing i manually installed last time i updated the kernel
[02:32] <demonstealer> guille_ which laptop are you using?
[02:32] <guille_> toshiba m70
[02:32] <finalbeta> orbin: nothing on that page that is related to the issue.
[02:32] <varka> James_M: but you have synaptic opened, so just choose the 4th menupoint from the very top menupoints
[02:32] <perlmonkey> I have a toshiba 9100 and the screen just died, only had it like 3 weeks..worse luck :-/
[02:32] <Stephan> where can i get gnome themes for ubuntu?
[02:32] <Stephan> where can i get gnome themes for ubuntu?
[02:32] <varka> James_M: it should be named something like Preferences or options
[02:32] <Syndic4te> Could anyone here help me with a minor nvidia problem with Beryl?
[02:32] <finalbeta> I guess I'll try the pulseaudio version.
[02:32] <Moduliz0r> now hod do I boot sda2 (windows) from grub's grub> prompt?
[02:33] <James_M> I am in preferences.
[02:33] <midgetg0at> anyone know about upgrading libc6??
[02:33] <VoX> Syndic4te: maybe, what's the error
[02:33] <Syndic4te> I know I'm supposed to just "ask" my question, but sometimes I do that and I'm just given a link to forums.
[02:33] <Syndic4te> ok
[02:33] <Syndic4te> Basically..
[02:33] <maploin> Is it just me or there is really no official netinstall for ubuntu?

[02:33] <jeayese> hey
[02:33] <varka> James_M: ok, now choose the second menupoint from the pulldownmenu, its called something like package sources
[02:33] <jeayese> im having major troubles installing Steam
[02:33] <confusednoob> anybod can help me with a small ati issue? (i used the install for ati method)
[02:34] <Stephan> hmm
[02:34] <perlmonkey> ok is this probably a really lame question but... why don't my bash_profiles load when I start my system up? I'm always having to do a source ~/.bash_profile before I can use it! any ideas?
[02:34] <Syndic4te> I have a Samsung SyncMaster 931BW. My video card is a Geforce 7800 GS OC. Beryl is running fine on Feisty....except...when I boot up it lags a little...
[02:34] <Syndic4te> when I go to nvidia-settings and change the refresh rate to 75, it magically goes faster
[02:34] <James_M> I don't have any pull downs in preferences I have tabs. Is that what you mean?
[02:34] <Syndic4te> Basically, is there any way I can edit xorg.conf to make it so that it will boot at 1440x900 at 75 Hz
[02:35] <Syndic4te> I know LCD's aren't supposed to have refresh rates though
[02:35] <Syndic4te> But...i can't explain it
[02:35] <VoX> Syndic4te: of course you can edit xorg.conf
[02:35] <Syndic4te> I know
[02:35] <Syndic4te> but what i mean is
[02:35] <Moduliz0r> How do I boot an OS from the grub> prompt
[02:35] <varka> James_M: no, you dont have to open Preferences->Preferences but Preferences->Package Sources,
[02:35] <Syndic4te> what do i write...it already booted in 1440x900...which is what i want
[02:35] <Syndic4te> but i also want it to boot at 75 hz
[02:35] <Syndic4te> boots*
[02:36] <varka> James_M: its quite hard for me, as i dont know the right names for your menupoints, but i try
[02:36] <nathalie> Hello
[02:36] <VoX> Syndic4te: im not sure how to set refresh rates to be honest. try googling "xorg.conf refresh rate" or similar
[02:36] <nathalie> Is anyone here who can help me with cinelerra 64-bit, or tells me a channel for that?
[02:37] <Syndic4te> lol..
[02:37] <Syndic4te> ok
[02:37] <Moduliz0r> how do I boot XP from grub?
[02:37] <Syndic4te> I guess........
[02:37] <jeayese> can anyone please help me?
[02:37] <varka> James_M: lets quit that stuff, its too compilcated to do it in the GUI, lets open some terminal
[02:37] <James_M> you say i should get a second pulldown menu FROM preferences? If so not for me, the only option I have is to click it
[02:37] <James_M> ok
[02:38] <varka> James_M: no just copy and paste the first command in the feisty section of that page: http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/repository.php   and press return, then repeat it with the second command
[02:38] <ahmed> hi every body I have a problem with my usb mouse, I'm using ubuntu feisty.
[02:39] <jimwhimpey> could someone ping me?
[02:39] <James_M> Where does the command stop?
[02:40] <ahmed> it works for few minutes only, after that all usb ports are blocked
[02:40] <varka> James_M: there are two command, every one end at the end of the line
[02:40] <moDumass> hey which version of the nvidia driver do i need?
[02:40] <varka> James_M: first one is: sudo su -c 'echo deb http://de.packages.medibuntu.org/ feisty free non-free >> /etc/apt/sources.list'
[02:40] <varka> moDumass: nvidia-glx
[02:40] <James_M> not doing anything
[02:41] <varka> moDumass: 9631
[02:41] <longpig> isnt there a video editor available for gnome/ubuntu?
[02:41] <moDumass> varka, ok, 9631?
[02:41] <varka> James_M: thats ok, if nothing responds it means that the command was executed without any errors
[02:41] <varka> James_M: now put in the second command
[02:41] <bennnn> cinerella
[02:41] <taomaster> good morning to all - im a network admin and i'm thinkin of changing over to Ubuntu from MS server. anyone here works in ubuntu server?
[02:42] <James_M> what happens if I put it in twice?
[02:42] <ahmed> sorry but I really need help
[02:42] <varka> moDumass: yes, 1.0.9631 its the version of the nvidia driver you will install if choosing nvidia-glx
[02:42] <moDumass> ah, cool
[02:42] <varka> James_M: nothing

[02:43] <bennnn> oh god, open office just crashes, why why why
[02:44] <orbin> taomaster: dedicated channel is #ubntu-server
[02:44] <LunatikBunnie> which is better? Cedega or Wine?
[02:44] <taomaster> thanx
[02:44] <bennnn> surely it should run on anything
[02:44] <LunatikBunnie> for gaming,that is.
[02:44] <orbin> taomaster: *correction: #ubuntu-server

"Root visual is not a GL visual" "beryl: glXCreateContext failed" "beryl: Failed to manage screen: 0" "beryl: No manageable screens found on display :0.0". after the error message my current window manager metacity disappears and i'm left without a window manager
[02:45] <corrupt> ,
[02:45] <corrupt>  any ideas on what my problem could be?
[02:45] <kurtti> LunatikBunnie, haven't tried it

[02:45] <RAOF> corrupt: You should ask again in #ubuntu-effects, that's where Beryl support is.
[02:45] <LunatikBunnie> kurtti, all it said was
[02:45] <LunatikBunnie> Download the cvschroot script from http://www.horae.dti.ne.jp/~gotoh/dist/cvschroot/cvschroot

[02:46] <corrupt> thanks RAOF
[02:46] <datoney> hello all, newbee here, got on ubuntu this morning and applied a new update and now wine has gone from my toolbar????
[02:46] <datoney> any ideas?
[02:47] <moDumass> varka, how would i manually install the new drivers?
[02:47] <varka> James_M: ok, please type in sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list and copy the content to the pastebin service
[02:47] <kurtti> LunatikBunnie, have you set up cvs on your machine?

[02:47] <bennnn> anyone know why openoffice does not start? ubuntu feisty 7
[02:47] <bennnn> just crashes on load
[02:47] <LunatikBunnie> kurtti, i dont know, but i updated my ubuntu
[02:48] <RAOF> bennnn: Works for me.
[02:48] <Syndic4te> What's the command to see what resolution my desktop is being display in with the refresh rate
[02:48] <Syndic4te> in terminal?
[02:48] <bennnn> it did work for me
[02:48] <varka> moDumass: i dont recommend it but you can try the envy script, it worked for James_M, http://www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[02:48] <bennnn> after some updates, stoped working!
[02:48] <kurtti> LunatikBunnie, seems to me you'll need to set that up. not sure though
[02:48] <cBau> try reinstall, tough to tell what you have installed that may have broked it
[02:48] <bennnn> reinstalled openoffice ,, nothing, crash on start
[02:49] <Frogzoo> Syndic4te: xrandr
[02:49] <datoney> hello all, newbee here, got on ubuntu this morning and applied a new update and now wine has gone from my toolbar????
[02:49] <Syndic4te> thnx
[02:49] <RAOF> bennnn: Then you should probably file a bug (at launchpad.net), if possible with a version of the package that worked, and a version that doesn't.
[02:49] <James_M> what syntax?
[02:49] <Syndic4te> Frogzoo
[02:49] <bennnn> same package
[02:49] <bennnn> that does not work
[02:49] <SoftIce> don't touch me
[02:49] <bennnn> from ubuntu
[02:49] <Syndic4te> Do you how I can make it boot at 75 hz
[02:49] <varka> James_M: doenst matter, let default
[02:49] <Syndic4te> instead of 50
[02:49] <Syndic4te> which is what it's in now
[02:49] <Syndic4te> ?
[02:49] <Frogzoo> Syndic4te: ask the chan
[02:49] <Syndic4te> Huh?
[02:50] <bennnn> installed from add/remove
[02:50] <Syndic4te> I'm asking in the channel
[02:50] <James_M> it didn't give me a url. download as text?
[02:50] <LunatikBunnie> what's the ubuntu alternative to Flashget/Flashgot(Firefox)
[02:50] <RAOF> bennnn: Yes, but it worked before.  What I meant was: "You should file a bug, and to make it more likely that we can fix it, it would be useful if you could identify the actual update that broke it for you"
[02:51] <RAOF> Syndic4te: It's running at at least 60Hz.  You've got an nvidia card, right?
[02:51] <bennnn> Version: 2.2.0-1ubuntu3
[02:51] <datoney> can anyone see me?
[02:51] <Lo_Pan> datoney: yes
[02:51] <datoney> k thanks:)
[02:51] <Lo_Pan> we can all see you
[02:51] <datoney> hello all, newbee here, got on ubuntu this morning and applied a new update and now wine has gone from my toolbar????
[02:51] <varka> James_M: after you pressed "Paste!" just copy the adress line of your browser and paste it here
[02:51] <Soth> Syndic4te: Are you using an nvidia card and seem to be stuck at a refresh rate of 50?
[02:51] <bennnn> don't know the update, could be one of many
[02:51] <Syndic4te> yep
[02:51] <James_M> oh duh XD
[02:51] <Syndic4te> I am using a nvidia card
[02:51] <James_M> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25957/
[02:51] <Syndic4te> and the drivers I am using are..
[02:52] <Syndic4te> nvidia-glx-new
[02:52] <bennnn> do you think its a dependancy problem?
[02:52] <linuxuser123> Has anyone ever seen rainbow colored typed fonts on an LCD monitor on some websites only when enabling "subpixel smoothing" in Ubuntu's font preferences?
[02:52] <Soth> Syndic4te: try disabling TwinView and DynamicTwinView... give me a sec and I can give you the exact lines to add to xorg.conf
[02:52] <RAOF> Syndic4te: Known issue with the nvidia drivers.  They *deliberately* mis-report the refresh rate.
[02:52] <Syndic4te> thanks a lot
[02:52] <Syndic4te> ahh
[02:52] <datoney> is anyone else having wine problems?
[02:52] <Syndic4te> thnx
[02:52] <bennnn> is there a log i can check for openoffice Version: 2.2.0
[02:53] <bennnn> maybe it will have a error log i can check to find the problem?
[02:53] <RAOF> bennnn: You could try launching it from a terminal, it might spit out useful information there.
[02:53] <datoney> hello all, newbee here, got on ubuntu this morning and applied a new update and now wine has gone from my toolbar????  any ideas
[02:53] <bennnn> oh ok, i try now
[02:54] <varka> James_M: ok, my fault, just delete the last line as it is double cause you executed the command twice and then save the file and do sudo apt-get update
[02:54] <James_M> from the sources list?
[02:54] <varka> James_M: yes
[02:54] <cBau> Datoney: Wine is not on my menu bar either.... but you could always add it back. I am not too concerned about it.
[02:55] <James_M> save
[02:55] <James_M> ?
[02:55] <varka> James_M: sure
[02:56] <James_M> now?
[02:56] <varka> James_M: and then: sudo apt-get update
[02:56] <James_M> nvm
[02:56] <bennnn> any idea what i run?
[02:56] <Syndic4te> Soth, you're still looking?
[02:56] <bennnn> /usr/bin/openoffice? or something?
[02:56] <taomaster> no one in the ubuntu-server  channel is willing to discuss- oh well
[02:56] <varka> James_M: what?
[02:56] <James_M> What?
[02:56] <datoney> cBau ok well was trying to install office and at the begining of the install (user info) it said to edit the wine reg but now I cant find that
[02:56] <varka> James_M: nvm??
[02:57] <cBau> k
[02:57] <James_M> oh I forgot you already told me what to do :)
[02:57] <UbuntuOwnsYourMu> help
[02:57] <RAOF> bennnn: It seems something like "oowriter", "oomath", etc.
[02:57] <bennnn> ok, i try
[02:57] <UbuntuOwnsYourMu> help
[02:57] <Soth> Syndic4te: just had to get to a machine that had those settings so i could look... ok you'll need to add two lines to /etc/X11/xorg.conf under the Device section right below where the driver is loaded
[02:57] <UbuntuOwnsYourMu> how do i get beryl to work!?!?!?!?!?!?!
[02:58] <datoney> cBau: how would I go about finding it and adding it back?
[02:58] <varka> UbuntuOwnsYourMu: go to #ubuntu-effects
[02:58] <Soth> Syndic4te: Option "TwinView" "False"
[02:58] <UbuntuOwnsYourMu> why
[02:58] <James_M> It is stuck at 99% again
[02:58] <Hobbsee> !beryl | UbuntuOwnsYourMu
[02:58] <ubotu> UbuntuOwnsYourMu: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[02:58] <Soth> Syndic4te: and also Option "DynamicTwinView" "False"
[02:58] <UbuntuOwnsYourMu> ok
[02:58] <varka> UbuntuOwnsYourMu: cause its the right channel for those kind of questions, thats why
[02:58] <cBau> Datoney: Right click on Applications, Edit Menus
[02:58] <asdf_> does anyone know of an app in Linux that lets you take a screenshot of a portion of the screen like in Mac OS X?
[02:59] <Soth> Syndic4te: just that first one might do it though... anyhow after that log out of your current session and restart X
[02:59] <datoney> k
[02:59] <confusednoob> nobody knows how to fix my problem?
[02:59] <varka> asdf_: compiz can do that
[02:59] <Federico90> hi guys
[02:59] <cBau> Datoney: Then you can check the box if it's there, otherwise, add a new item and do it to it
[02:59] <Syndic4te> thanks a lot
[02:59] <Syndic4te> :D
[02:59] <Syndic4te> thanks soth
[02:59] <Syndic4te> :D
[02:59] <asdf_> varka: can you elaborate?
[02:59] <varka> asdf_: not really
[02:59] <datoney> cBau: looks like I have to add it
[03:00] <varka> James_M: ok, lets try anotherone
[03:00] <orbin> taomaster: if they're general questions, just ask them here
[03:00] <Soth> Syndic4te: Oh and if that doesn't do it you might want to add a couple of lines to the monitor section as well
[03:00] <varka> James_M: w8
[03:00] <Federico90> i have a problem during the kernel compilation
[03:00] <Soth> but i have a feeling that's going to be your problem
[03:00] <orbin> taomaster: if no-one's active there
[03:00] <Federico90> i recive this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25960/
[03:00] <Federico90> why?
[03:01] <datoney> cBau: where do I browse to?
[03:01] <Syndic4te> Soth, okay, what lines?
[03:01] <cBau> Datoney: You're looking for the winecfg command?
[03:01] <jeayese> anyone here know how to get steam working with wine?.. i seem to be getting anoying errors :@
[03:01] <ubuntu__> hi
[03:02] <jeayese> can anyone please help me?
[03:02] <Federico90> hey why does i recive that error?
[03:02] <varka> James_M: open the sources.list again with sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list and delete the last line, make sudo apt-get update after that and the tell me if youre ready
[03:02] <ubuntu__> anybody knows how to configure the realtek ethernet card???
[03:02] <asdf_> does anyone know of an app in Linux that lets you take a screenshot of a portion of the screen like in Mac OS X?
[03:02] <RAOF> asdf_: Compiz.
[03:02] <Soth> Syndic4te: I've had cases where I needed to look up the horizontal sync and vertical refresh rate ranges for my monitor and enter those to get my a display to use a sane setting
[03:02] <datoney> cBau: actually I am looking for all the folder that holds wine.....at least I think thats way I need, I don't know where wine is installed
[03:02] <asdf_> RAOF: Can you elaborate?
[03:03] <cBau> Datoney: Ah, ok... hang on
[03:03] <jeayese> please is there anyone here that knows about Wine?
[03:03] <RAOF> asdf_: Well, you use Compiz (aka: Desktop Effects) and then Super+Right click is "select an area of the screen to capture"
[03:03] <RAOF> asdf_: (I think.  It's something like that).
[03:03] <arch_> how can I get DCC working on xchat-gnome?
[03:03] <James_M> deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu feisty-security main restricted
[03:03] <James_M> deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu feisty-security main restricted

[03:03] <asdf_> RAOF: I'm running Beryl so would I have that functionality?
[03:03] <James_M> deb http://packages.medibuntu.org/ feisty free non-free
[03:03] <SoftIce> oh thanks jaana
[03:04] <SoftIce> James_M
[03:04] <RAOF> asdf_: Presumably.  Beryl is mostly compiz :)
[03:04] <James_M> sorry but look several of those are the same.

[03:04] <James_M> should i delete those as well
[03:04] <asdf_> RAOF: Super + Right doesn't do anything is there somewhere I can see assigned shortcuts?
[03:04] <SoftIce> Can't there be a floodbot put in here?
[03:04] <Soth> Syndic4te: Anyhow you can look them up for your display and stick them in the Monitor section as HorizSync XX-XX and VertRefresh XX-XX, where XX would be the range the display manufacturer suggests for each setting
[03:04] <varka> James_M: no they arent
[03:04] <varka> James_M: just the last line
[03:04] <James_M> yes I know but I am running out of time and I would like to get this done :(
[03:04] <Syndic4te> ahh
[03:04] <Syndic4te> yeah, i already have those, soth
[03:04] <Syndic4te> thanks a lot
[03:04] <Syndic4te> :D
[03:04] <RAOF> asdf_: Beryl manager should have something about the "screenshot" plugin, I suppose
[03:04] <Syndic4te> i'll try it out
[03:05] <midgetg0at> how do i know what my uid is?
[03:05] <SoftIce> Tell me out of experience does 1 find its faster running a Wine session of say things like Photoshop, etc or better to run a VMWare session of Windows with these applications installed
[03:05] <midgetg0at> trying to create an ftp user and apparently i have to tie it to a user id?
[03:05] <James_M> ok done
[03:06] <varka> James_M: now replace the deleted line with this one: deb http://seveas.theplayboymansion.net/seveas feisty-seveas all
[03:06] <RAOF> SoftIce: Generally, it should be much faster to use wine (since there isn't actually an emulation layer involved)
[03:06] <SoftIce> midgetg0at have a look in /etc/passwd it will tell you your UID
[03:06] <cBau> Datoney: It's /home/<username>./wine/drive_C
[03:06] <James_M> go back to the sources file?
[03:06] <cBau> I think
[03:06] <Baktaah> Hey do you guys know any of the OS X looking dock for Ubuntu, I have used Avant-Window-Navigator and it wasn't soo god.
[03:06] <datoney> cbau: sweet I will take a look:)
[03:06] <SoftIce> RAOF: yet? stability issues? how has wine evolved last time i used it around 1997 or so it sucked?
[03:06] <varka> James_M: yes, sry, i should have said it earlier ;)
[03:06] <Federico90> hey
[03:07] <cBau> Hidden folder, because of the ./wine
[03:07] <Federico90> where is the .config file of the kernel config?
[03:07] <James_M> ok
[03:07] <voici> try ./beer
[03:07] <SoftIce> Federico90 /boot/config-(uname-r)
[03:07] <RAOF> SoftIce: It's quite a lot better than in 1997 :).
[03:07] <SoftIce> RAOF: ok, worth giving it a bash I guess.
[03:08] <gordonjcp> SoftIce: you haven't used wine for 10 years?
[03:08] <SoftIce> thanks.
[03:08] <varka> James_M: save again and execute sudo apt-get update again
[03:08] <datoney> cBau: thanks for your help I will try to figure it out from here:)
[03:08] <RAOF> SoftIce: Yup.  And you won't have wasted a lot of time if it doesn't work :)
[03:08] <SoftIce> gordonjcp: I have not used X windows in 10 or so years..
[03:08] <varka> James_M: what does it say now?
[03:08] <gordonjcp> SoftIce: hm
[03:08] <SoftIce> console junkie, just thought let me try Ubuntu with gnome
[03:08] <cBau> Datoney: Hope I helped, quite newbie myself, just have messed around with Wine quite a bit
[03:08] <gordonjcp> SoftIce: so you pretty much haven't used any GUI software in the past 10 years then?
[03:09] <SoftIce> I like how easy it has become to use X :) no more UltraProbe or was it SuperProbe?
[03:09] <James_M> it says I might want to run it again to correct these problems
[03:09] <James_M> it says the public key is not available
[03:09] <varka> James_M: please paste me the whole output of the command with the pastebin service
[03:10] <LordLimecat> question, when i create a shortcut (~/Desktop/shortcut/) to ~/foo/bar/blah/, and i open the shortcut, i want going up the directory chain to take me to bar, not to Desktop
[03:10] <LordLimecat> is this possible?
[03:10] <SoftIce> gordonjcp: i've stuck to Windows for my desktop as back in the day X was to far ahead of its time compared to that of windows 3.1, etc. so it was very slow on the latest hardware, it seems to have become some what faster these days compared to other GUI OS's
[03:10] <varka> James_M: something seems to be very strange and i have to look myself what it is
[03:10] <Syndic4te> Soth
[03:10] <Syndic4te> It worked...at least it appears to have worked
[03:10] <Syndic4te> Thanks a lot...
[03:10] <Syndic4te> :D
[03:10] <Syndic4te> But Soth....I have AA and AF set to 8x...
[03:10] <James_M> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25962/
[03:11] <Soth> Syndic4te: yeah it took me forever to find the solution to that little issue... just curious what brand of display do you have?
[03:11] <Syndic4te> should I probably turn it down?
[03:11] <Syndic4te> ok... well
[03:11] <Syndic4te> I have a Samsung SyncMaster 931 BW....and my video card is a GeForce 7800 GS OC AGP
[03:11] <povszil> I have a ppc with ubuntu.I cant install crossover on it.Anyone know a solution for this problem?
[03:11] <Soth> Syndic4te: hmmm so far it seems only people with a certain model samsung panel has that problem.... my Dell has a samsung panel in it
[03:11] <Syndic4te> What I mean is...what should I set the AA and AF to, to make Beryl look the best it can without causing slowdown
[03:11] <datoney> cBau: Big help I am back up:)  thanks again!
[03:12] <Syndic4te> oh really?
[03:12] <Soth> Syndic4te: if it's not laggy then i don't see why it matters
[03:12] <Syndic4te> ya
[03:12] <Syndic4te> it's very smooth now...it's just
[03:12] <gordonjcp> SoftIce: I've pretty much only used Linux as a desktop for the past 10 years or so
[03:12] <Syndic4te> I think my problem is I want to not see a dip...ever
[03:12] <danub> how do i restart ssh server?
[03:12] <SoftIce> Tell me something, will Beryl crash and restart X if you try run it on unsuppored graphics cards? the Beryl manager that is.
[03:12] <Soth> Syndic4te: try it with different settings to see if there is a difference in speed
[03:12] <gordonjcp> SoftIce: so I can't really tell you how it relates to Windows
[03:12] <Syndic4te> yeah, i will
[03:12] <Syndic4te> thanks :D
[03:12] <preaction> danub: sudo invoke-rc.d sshd restart
[03:13] <Syndic4te> oh...
[03:13] <Syndic4te> soth..
[03:13] <Syndic4te> now when i type nvidia-settings...it outputs..
[03:13] <SoftIce> gordonjcp :) well I dislike windows, i hate waiting for things so i use console for most things, if i want to view an image i whip out old zgv, etc :)
[03:13] <Syndic4te> ERROR: Dynamic TwinView is disabled on screen 0.
[03:13] <Shin_Gouki> hello can i use debotstrap with ubuntu?
[03:13] <danub> unknown initscript
[03:13] <Syndic4te> it still opens the settings...it just outputs that in terminal now though...
[03:13] <danub> needs absolute pathname
[03:13] <Soth> Syndic4te: yeah that's normal, because it's disabled :D
[03:13] <danub> sshd -restart
[03:13] <RAOF> Shin_Gouki: Yes.  Pretty much exaclty the same way as in debian.
[03:13] <Syndic4te> ok, cool :p
[03:13] <varka> James_M: ok, not that type of a problem thats hard to solve. so just do the following: wget http://seveas.theplayboymansion.net/seveas/1135D466.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add
[03:14] <Syndic4te> one more quick thing
[03:14] <preaction> danub: what's "-restart"? try "ssh" instead of "sshd"
 ok thx!
[03:14] <Syndic4te> say I change the AA or AF
[03:14] <Syndic4te> do Ineed to restart X?
[03:14] <Syndic4te> or should it be instant
[03:14] <Soth> Syndic4te: Not really sure to be honest
[03:14] <Syndic4te> lol ok
[03:14] <RAOF> Syndic4te: Only programs started after you change the settings will have the new settings.
[03:14] <danub> sshd restart says "sshd re-exec requires execution with absolute path
[03:14] <James_M>  wget http://seveas.theplayboymansion.net/seveas/1135D466.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add
[03:14] <SoftIce> danub just send a sig hup to ssh
[03:15] <Soth> heh well that answers your question... in your case you'd want to restart it lol
[03:15] <James_M> Cannot write to `1135D466.gpg' (Broken pipe).
[03:15] <bluemax> hmm
[03:15] <RAOF> Syndic4te: Which I'm *pretty* sure it says in the nvidia-settings man page :)
[03:15] <jeayese> Hello
[03:15] <Syndic4te> ahh
[03:15] <Syndic4te> :D
[03:15] <jeayese> this is the last time i ask
[03:15] <jeayese> here
[03:15] <danub> ok, the invoke-rc.d ssh restart worked
[03:15] <preaction> danub: try "ssh" instead of "sshd"
[03:15] <jeayese> i have been waiting patiently for someone to answer my question!
[03:15] <varka> James_M: do a: "cd ~"  before
[03:15] <Syndic4te> thanks again
[03:15] <jeayese> but no one has
[03:15] <Syndic4te> brb
[03:15] <James_M> ?
[03:15] <danub> if i add 2 ports to listen to in my sshd_config file, will it actually listen to both?
[03:15] <danub> or just the first one on the list?
[03:16] <RAOF> danub: Both.
[03:16] <preaction> danub: install nmap and see
[03:16] <SoftIce> danub: both
[03:16] <varka> James_M: you are in a directory where you dont have write-access to
[03:16] <danub> good
[03:16] <James_M> how do i make my text red?
[03:16] <varka> James_M: ???
[03:16] <LordLimecat> preaction: couldnt he just netstat it?
[03:16] <SoftIce> danub: why would you want it to listen to both ?
[03:16] <predaeus> jeayese, maybe nobody knows, just come back later and ask again when different people are here
[03:16] <jeayese> *sigh*
[03:16] <SoftIce> LordLimecat: ofcourse he can
[03:16] <jeayese> k
[03:16] <James_M> Your text is red it would be easier for you if I know how to make mine red
[03:17] <varka> James_M: just type in my name befor you answer me
[03:17] <nomad111> hey all how do install icon themes in gnome
[03:17] <SoftIce> jeayese: is it a console question or X, if console shoot ?
[03:17] <James_M> varka ok
[03:17] <James_M> varka: ?
[03:17] <James_M> like that?
[03:17] <varka> James_M: yes, thats all
[03:17] <danub> SoftIce: because from outside my home network i want it to listen to a non-stanrd port, inside my network 22 works...and i have another vmware box that uses ssh also
[03:18] <James_M> varka: ok so what do I do now?
[03:18] <varka> James_M: please just open a whole new terminal and try the command again i gave you
[03:18] <danub> so this way, if i'm internal and the linux box is on but not the vmware, it will go to the linux box. if i have the vmware system up, i just change the port and connect to that one instead
[03:18] <Woksta> How can I mount a vfat partitioned USB key with read/write access on a LiveCD?
[03:18] <Woksta> by default it has read only access.
[03:18] <freddy__> can anyone direct me to  a working breezy sources.list
[03:19] <James_M> opened a new terminal same thing happened
[03:19] <SoftIce> danub: why not use different natted IP's and use a dmz or port forwarding on your router?
[03:19] <danub> while i have yall here, anyone got a tutorial on beryl/glx/compiz? I'm running fiesty and once i got beryl installed i started getting hdc erros and my xserver got botched
[03:20] <RAOF> freddy__: Isn't breezy now out of support?
[03:20] <varka> James_M: i cant see anything why this shouldnt work, but anyway just try the first part of the command: wget http://seveas.theplayboymansion.net/seveas/1135D466.gpg
[03:20] <cBau> Danub: My best success with a beryl install was using the Envy video card driver script, and then installing beryl.
[03:20] <akari> danub: Try #ubuntu-effects the link is in the channel topic :)
[03:20] <danub> so i had to do apt-get removes inbetween error messages poping up every 4 seconds
[03:20] <SoftIce> danub: and i'll sugest your run ssh on high ports like 22722 so to not show your service with standard nmap scans
[03:20] <nomad111> does anyone have any idea?
[03:20] <nomad111> on how to install icon themes in gnome
[03:20] <freddy__> RAOF: mabe - is that why I cannot do apt-get update anymore ?
[03:20] <James_M> ok no "broken pie"
[03:20] <James_M> pipe*
[03:20] <predaeus> nomad111, I think you would just drag the icon tarball onto the theme manager
[03:20] <RAOF> freddy__: I believe that should work, just that you won't be getting any security patches etc.
[03:21] <SoftIce> freddy__: i'd really sugest you upgrade your OS, you are for sure running vulnerable services..
[03:21] <varka> James_M: ok, we'll try gui again: go to synaptics again
[03:21] <James_M> there
[03:21] <RAOF> !upgrade > freddy__ <---- You really should follow the upgrade instructions in the PM from ubotu.
[03:21] <freddy__> SoftIce: can u then direct me to at working dapper sources.list
[03:21] <varka> James_M: ok, now open the second entry of the fourth pull-down-menu
[03:22] <SoftIce> freddy__: well i'm not sure the compatability issues for the upgrade you are looking at
[03:22] <varka> James_M: what does the title say?
[03:22] <predaeus> !easysource | freddy__
[03:22] <ubotu> freddy__: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[03:22] <victor_> hello everyone
[03:22] <James_M> AH I see 3rd party software now
[03:22] <James_M> I was in the wrong one
[03:22] <freddy__> ubotu: thanks
[03:22] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[03:22] <varka> James_M: ahhh, finally ;)
[03:22] <SoftIce> freddy__: if there are not any know major compatability issues i would sugest just using sed to search and replace breezy with dapper
[03:22] <RAOF> SoftIce: No, no, no.  Bad idea.
[03:23] <freddy__> SoftIce: yeah - thanks
[03:23] <James_M> varka: so now what?
[03:23] <SoftIce> RAOF: what is a bad idea?
[03:23] <varka> James_M: ok so now go to the tab "authentification"
[03:23] <RAOF> SoftIce: The update tool does quite a lot more than sed -i s/breezy/dapper/ sources.list
[03:23] <James_M> varka: done
[03:23] <bogor> i have 3 files containing 1column x ~15 rows. I need to extracts all the entries that are common to all. How do i do that ?
[03:23] <midgetg0at> how do i get a users uid?
[03:23] <SoftIce> RAOF: I don't believe there is an update tool for those early versions or am i mistaken?
[03:24] <varka> James_M: press "import keyfile..." and choose the "1135D466.gpg" in your homefolder
[03:24] <RAOF> SoftIce: Quite possibly.  It's been *some time* since I was running Breezy :)
[03:24] <James_M> varka: done
[03:24] <Wips> can I somehow obtain Ventrilo for Ubuntu?
[03:24] <midgetg0at> um, for those who know - getting a uid must be simple :(
[03:24] <midgetg0at> sux when you dont know
[03:24] <SoftIce> RAOF: ahhh sorry i keep thinking console, i'm pretty sure X has some tool.
[03:24] <varka> James_M: fine, now close that window and press the big "Reload" button on the top-left of synaptic
[03:25] <SoftIce> easy dist-upgrade && upgrade && upgrade
[03:25] <RAOF> midgetg0at: I believe you could "grep _username_ /etc/users"
[03:25] <James_M> varka: ok it loaded something
[03:25] <varka> James_M: wihout errors?
[03:25] <SoftIce> midgetg0at: I told you earlier to look in /etc/passwd
[03:25] <James_M> without errors
[03:25] <varka> James_M: fine, now press "Search" and type in w32codecs
[03:25] <midgetg0at> ty :)
[03:25] <_Tp> 24
[03:25] <Anon6287> www.ortambu.nwt
[03:25] <midgetg0at> i wasnt looking when you said it, my apologies.
[03:26] <Anon6287> www.ortambu.net
[03:26] <James_M> select it?
[03:26] <SoftIce> midgetg0at: or else just type 'id'
[03:26] <varka> James_M: rightclick and "mark for installation"
[03:26] <SoftIce> midgetg0at: that will give your id for your 'user'
[03:26] <tide33> Are there other distros besides Ubuntu and Debian which have a 'server install' option?
[03:26] <James_M> varka: k
[03:26] <midgetg0at> yea, not interested in that, passwd file is nice, but how do i know which number to use?
[03:26] <midgetg0at> the 100x one? or the 100 one?
[03:26] <James_M> varka: apply?
[03:26] <midgetg0at> or the first or second?
[03:26] <varka> James_M: not yet
[03:27] <SoftIce> tide33: yes, most of them, right back to first installs of netbsd, etc. they called min install :) and install your packages afterwards, just the min services to drive your OS are installed.
[03:27] <bogor>  tide33: fedora 7 spins allow you to do that, but you may have to do some work to get that
[03:27] <James_M> varka: non-free license.... i won't be walking down the street and get served will I?
[03:27] <SoftIce> midgetg0at: please read the output of id it will be in a format of uid ID gui ID, etc
[03:27] <tide33> bogor: anything but fedora .. ugh :P
[03:27] <SoftIce> so if you want uid then read what it says the ID is
[03:27] <midgetg0at> ok, so uid is first.
[03:28] <midgetg0at> ty
[03:28] <SoftIce> tide33: fedora is actually quite good, its smack up to date with latest packages.
[03:28] <voici> "You can't run a virtual machine inside a virtual machine" Doh
[03:28] <nomad111> i cant the icons to work
[03:28] <midgetg0at> you cant?
[03:28] <nomad111> for some reason
[03:28] <voici> vmware says
[03:28] <voici> sp
[03:28] <voici> so
[03:28] <SoftIce> voici:: well you can if you give the 1 virtual machine complete access to the kernel.
[03:28] <nomad111> is there a folder where icons are kept
[03:28] <sebbar__> hi, does anybody have a zen stone by chance? any problems?
[03:28] <tide33> SoftIce: that's exactly what I can't have.. I'm going for min install.. and I don't have the power/space for all those packages
[03:29] <midgetg0at> 1002, very good : ) id -u <name> is all i need.
[03:29] <James_M> varka: what now?
[03:29] <tide33> plus I hate rpm
[03:29] <tide33> but that's just me
[03:29] <SoftIce> midgetg0at: maybe not a vmware session but a vserver you can, but stupid as you lose all the intended chroot security that was intended for the vserver in the first place.
[03:29] <bogor> tide33:gentoo is good option for server install (apart from ubuntu), but doesn't provide such an option explicitly
[03:29] <varka> James_M: you have to repeat that with some other packages to let those codecs work: gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad, gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse, gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly, gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse, gstreamer0.10-pitfdll
[03:29] <SoftIce> tide33: so yum install apt :P
[03:29] <James_M> varka: so what so i do?
[03:30] <SoftIce> tide33: and fedora setup tells you exactly what packages you want...
[03:30] <varka> James_M: just search for gstreamer and mark the packages for installation i mentioned and then press apply
[03:30] <SoftIce> tide33: if you want to use a server i'd sugest something like freebsd.
[03:30] <drowner> hi all
[03:30] <drowner> need a hand with the avant-window-manager.
[03:31] <spheard> tide33 server for what?
[03:31] <tide33> spheard: I don't want a server, just want to use that option
[03:31] <dobby> i have a problem with my ACPI so i got a DSDT file. I activated the option in the kernel. But at bootime the kernel is not looking for the DSDT file :-(
[03:31] <spheard> server option?
[03:32] <datoney> just out of interest can I install MS office using wine?  only I am getting this error:  wine: Unhandled page fault on write access to 0x00000000 at address 0x7ee088d8 (thread 000e), starting debugger...
[03:32] <tide33> SoftIce: I've had bad experiences with Fedora in the past (I ran old red hat before the split)
[03:32] <SoftIce> the server selection is nothing more than telling you not to install alot of packages and with the later releases of ubuntu it has the ability to do a few apt-get install's for you.
[03:32] <Lamego> datoney, try #wine :)
[03:32] <SoftIce> nothing fancy about that
[03:32] <James_M> varka: apply now?
[03:32] <spheard> datoney doubt it, try openoffice.org at www.openoffice.org.
[03:32] <varka> James_M: yes
[03:32] <tide33> bogor: gentoo you say?
[03:32] <SoftIce> every OS has a min install option and you can 'package-name install' or you can ./configure from source..
[03:32] <_gpg_> hello
[03:32] <bogor> tide33: If you dont mind tweaking things , be adventures, dont mind if things fall apart. Then *gentoo* is the distro for you
[03:32] <datoney> Lamego: will do thanks
[03:33] <tide33> heh
[03:33] <tide33> I've heard horror stories bogor
[03:33] <exs_>  hi, Using paypal, does anyone know how to take the money from paypal to transfer into my bank account?
[03:33] <tide33> like 3 days to get it up and running
[03:33] <spheard> tide33: what do you want to use it for? everything?
[03:33] <_gpg_> any one know where to get the latest "astyle" verion (even through instable repositories plz)
[03:33] <Lamego> exs_, this channel is not about paypal services
[03:33] <SoftIce> tide33: gentoo is more for people that is comfortabe with unix, eg settings CFLAGs, etc...
[03:33] <tide33> spheard: yes
[03:33] <spheard> tide33: whats wrong with ubuntu?
[03:33] <tide33> yes SoftIce, I know all about Cflags
[03:33] <tide33> I personally don't like the bloat...
[03:34] <James_M> varka: what now?
[03:34] <tide33> but I might try the server install
[03:34] <tide33> besides
[03:34] <tide33> I don't need half the stuff it includes for compatibility reasons
[03:34] <bogor> i have 3 files containing 1column x ~15 rows. I need to extracts all the entries that are common to all. How do i do that ?
[03:34] <SoftIce> tide33: well ubuntu server install is brilliant why not use that
[03:34] <tide33> mayhaps I'll try
[03:34] <varka> James_M: do you see my query-window?
[03:34] <SoftIce> i'm running some high production asterisk servers with ubuntu its fantastic
[03:35] <tide33> I'm also a little queasy about running a distro that a lot of people use
[03:35] <tide33> tbh
[03:35] <spheard> ubuntu server is pretty solid,
[03:35] <tide33> security reasons :(
[03:35] <SoftIce> tide33: pffft, security has nothing to do with OS flavour.
[03:35] <SoftIce> learn to harden your box
[03:35] <spheard> tide33: try running debian on sparc :-)
[03:35] <Lamego> tide33, just go to distowatch and pick one of the most exotic distro, that will solve that problem :)
[03:35] <SoftIce> vservers, harden-tools, crypto from md5 to blowfish hashes, etc etc etc
[03:35] <spheard> SoftIce not true
[03:36] <tide33> SoftIce: I'm talking about a different variable
[03:36] <varka> James_M: you should be done, the codecs are installed now and should work
[03:36] <SoftIce> spheard: please dont talk to me about security, thats my job!
[03:36] <tide33> the number of potential attackers
[03:36] <heroin> ubuntu server is nice, thank debian
[03:36] <bobbob1016> I have a bcm43** wireless card, and after a kernel upgrade it doesn't work.  Network-manager sees my wifi, and a few others, but it can't connect to my wifi.  I did the ndiswrapper setup script from ubunuguide.org, but no luck
[03:36] <James_M> ok
[03:36] <Lamego> tide33, most of the "attack" are software specific, not distro specific
[03:36] <Lamego> attacks
[03:36] <spheard> going for a more obscure config can often be a excellent way to harden your box
[03:36] <SoftIce> tide33: what are you on about, what is dangerous about the OS, its package base system
[03:36] <tide33> this is true
[03:36] <SoftIce> ubuntu is top noth with patching thigns.!
[03:37] <SoftIce> so how can the 'distro' be vulnerable
[03:37] <newmark> somebody got beryl 0.20?
[03:37] <newmark> or 21?
[03:37] <SoftIce> you can port any exploit to any distro
[03:37] <tide33> SoftIce: I'm not saying it is, nor did I ever say it was
[03:37] <tide33> I'm just saying, that the more popular something is, the more potential attackers there will be
[03:37] <spheard> DISTRO WAR
[03:37] <SoftIce> tide33: so how can it be a security issue using a distro that many people use, its a blessing as more people to patch things, etc..
[03:37] <tide33> if you work in Security.. you must know that
[03:37] <Lamego> tide33, also the  more popular is most likely to be patched quicker
[03:37] <heroin> the ubuntu kernel is fine, however running outdated vnc servers will get u spanked no matter what distro
[03:38] <tide33> Lamego: true
[03:38] <tide33> I guess it's a bit different with FOSS
[03:38] <Lamego> and security is more about the administrator, than about the distro
[03:38] <SoftIce> tide33: well i don't belive sendail is more popular than qmail, exim, postfix, etc, yet it has the highest number of exploits?
[03:38] <varka> James_M: just as im curious, where are you from? bosten, ny, philadelphia?
[03:38] <voici> ubuntu kernel? isn't there just a single linux kernel?
[03:38] <heroin> + it what YOU make out of it.. if u kill all daemons and lock ip the system with some nice customs groups and users things are going to be though
[03:38] <Lamego> SoftIce, sendmail was/is is the most used SMTP :)
[03:38] <tide33> SoftIce: I didn't say anything about vulnerability.. again.. just about the number of people attempting access
[03:38] <James_M> varka: what do you mean? Why do you think I live in a city XD?
[03:39] <bobbob1016> I have a bcm43** wireless card, and after a kernel upgrade it doesn't work.  Network-manager sees my wifi, and a few others, but it can't connect to my wifi.  I did the ndiswrapper setup script from ubunuguide.org, but no luck.  Any ideas?
[03:39] <Lamego> SoftIce, that is a bad example :)
[03:39] <pinguim66> www.freenode.org
[03:39] <SoftIce> Lamego:only due to the fact that OS's like fbsd etc install it by default.
[03:39] <pinguim66> just a test
[03:39] <varka> James_M: i dont know, i just saw your provider
[03:39] <tide33> oh god.. what have I started
[03:39] <tide33> :(
[03:39] <tide33> sorry guys
[03:39] <spheard> bobbob1016: output of sudo iwconfig pls
[03:39] <Lamego> SoftIce, just by the fact that it several years older than the others :)
[03:39] <James_M> varka: Mississippi XD WAYYY off
[03:39] <SoftIce> Lamego: try using harden-server with debian/ubuntu it will rip that off in a secon.
[03:39] <varka> James_M: hehe, ok, thx
[03:40] <Lamego> SoftIce, debian/ubuntu is as safe as other distros, depending on the administrator :)
[03:40] <bobbob1016> spheard: should I pastebin it?
[03:40] <SoftIce> exactly
[03:40] <James_M> varka: just a guy who gets sick of windows screwing up XD heck I just bought a brand new XP pro disc and now it won't even work XD
[03:40] <spheard> bobbob1016:yes
[03:40] <SoftIce> Lamego: exepct not as secure as BSD as it has a linux kernel :)
[03:40] <tide33> heh
[03:40] <tide33> <3 BSD
[03:40] <heroin> James_M: u got ur 8800 working yet?
[03:40] <heroin> tide33: then go to #bsd
[03:41] <James_M> yeah ^_^
[03:41] <tide33> heh, I'd like to use *nix for this box
[03:41] <heroin> tide33: ok :D
[03:41] <James_M> heroin: I <3 Envy
[03:41] <Lamego> BSD is *nix, is is not lin* :)
[03:41] <tide33> ugh
[03:41] <tide33> not going to start that
[03:41] <skyfalcon866> how can i get the soruce code
[03:41] <bobbob1016> spheard: http://pastebin.ca/572024
[03:42] <bobbob1016> spheard: I'm on it wired now
[03:42] <tide33> Lamego: of course you're right
[03:42] <varka> James_M: maybe you should read that page before running into some false thoughts aboud linux: http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm
[03:42] <SoftIce> then again, who wants to use linux when they can use solaris *ducks* :)
[03:42] <James_M> varka: what do you mean ?
[03:42] <SoftIce> just stiring the pot.
[03:43] <tide33> lol

[03:48] <spheard> bobbob1016: not seeing any update
[03:48] <drowner> not a very good one obviously. At least I stopped the distrowar
[03:48] <ubuntu> !webmin
[03:48] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[03:48] <bobbob1016> spheard: it's at the bottom
[03:48] <James_M> varka: i have read 2-3 lines and you are confused XD I know that linux was going to be a big change. I knew that most of the $100s of stuff I bought would no longer work but hey I want to learn how to code and do other things without the hassle of windows blowing up. See I believe if I was a regular Joe I would have just went out and bought a new drive to make my windows happy after having problems with my video card. but no i kept trying ;)
[03:48] <James_M>  (Sorry but this is long for those of you who are mad that I flooded the board :()
[03:48] <ubuntu> ubotu bad ass
[03:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bad ass - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:49] <bobbob1016> spheard: I'll repost then
[03:49] <ubuntu> i will use webmin
[03:49] <spheard> bobbob1016 cheers
[03:50] <SoftIce> hrm, offhand why is webmin not supported in ubuntu anymore?
[03:50] <bobbob1016> spheard: http://pastebin.ca/572030
[03:50] <ubuntu> SoftIce: yeah
[03:50] <whyameye> I have a running box with Dapper on it. If I take the disk out of it and stick it in a different box (different brand name, video card, etc.) is it going to work or do I have to start from "scratch" on the new box?
[03:50] <varka> James_M: fine, so you wont be disappointed :)
[03:50] <ubuntu> tonyyarusso: hey why webmin is not supported .
[03:51] <spheard> ESSID Mine is multiple words, bobbob1016 this is your wireless network?
[03:51] <James_M> varka: nah and I will be super happy once I get Wine on here and get CS:S working ^_^ my rank on my favorite server is probably shot to hell XD
[03:51] <quio> Hello.  I have a dell d510 that I put Ubuntu 7.04 Fiesty on.  No problems at first but now all of a sudden I have no wireless.   I tried reinstalling ndiswrapper but I cannot get the wireless recognized.  I put back in my XP hard drive and the wireless works.  How can I get this working again?  I am a newb trying to migrate away from Microsoft.
[03:51] <predaeus> whyameye, depends on how much is different
[03:51] <heroin> whyameye: huh u can install ubuntu on it assuming its also a i368 processor
[03:51] <bobbob1016> spheard: yeah, I replaced it with that though, it did show my ssid though
[03:51] <ubuntu> hey i want to install skype on ubuntu server
[03:52] <nelsonuwp> any suggestions on how to get divx to work for tv-links?
[03:52] <spheard> quio, please paste logs
[03:52] <Frogzoo> !skype
[03:52] <ubotu> To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto
[03:52] <whyameye> heroin: but I'm saying to stick the old disk in the new machine as is
[03:52] <whyameye> predaeus: they are very different
[03:52] <ubuntu> Frogzoo: on ubuntu server
[03:52] <spheard> nelsonuwp you need a firefox plugin
[03:52] <ubuntu> Frogzoo: without to install gnome
[03:52] <spheard> nelsonuwp: called media player conectivity
[03:52] <predaeus> whyameye, ubuntu does not put a key on the disk that will not allow you to do this, like windows vista probably does. if they are different gfx cards then the drivers might be missing and so on.
[03:53] <nelsonuwp> spheard: ahh thanks
[03:53] <spheard> bobbob1016, k so the wireless is working
[03:53] <whyameye> predaeus: yeah it's the drivers I'm worried about.
 Where do I paste them?  Last time I pasted something in the IRC I was booted.  They did however tell me a site I could paste to and then paste whatever.
[03:53] <spheard> bobbob1016 can you disable wep and try again?
[03:54] <James_M> If I were to install TeamSpeak would my computer explode?
[03:54] <bobbob1016> spheard: yeah, network manager sees it, and others, the others are weak though, mine is wpa
[03:54] <Dr_willis> James_M,  ive used teamspwak under linux befor. dident explode
[03:54] <spheard> quio: http://pastebin.ca/
[03:54] <heroin> whyameye: sure :)
[03:54] <James_M> dr_willis: ok cause when I tryed to install it it got all huffy at me
[03:54] <predaeus> whyameye, if you have your xorg.conf configured to use nvidia drivers now and you put it into a machine that has an ati card it will not start X. apart from that you can get the other drivers needed, or the kernel will already have them and load them automatically.
[03:54] <spheard> bobbob1016 remove all the complications
[03:55] <spheard> bobbob1016 get rid of encryption
[03:55] <varka> James_M: as your now familiar with adding repositories you may want to add the repository from winehq to always have the latest wine-version
[03:55] <Dr_willis> James_M,  it just hates you. :)
[03:55] <predaeus> whyameye, there is no answer to your question since we are missing information. but ubuntu would not prohibit that you use the current installation on another computer.
 Ok cool.  What log would you like?
[03:55] <Toshibi> I'm going nuts....
[03:55] <James_M> varka: so I go to the synaptic look up winehq and download it?
[03:55] <whyameye> predaeus: sounds like it is worth a shot. I'll just start with the VESA driver until I know what is going on...
[03:56] <predaeus> whyameye, yes, that is a good idea
[03:56] <Dr_willis> whyameye,  ive had issues in the past when moveing 'installs' to other box's - some times some modules dont get set right and so forth. But that was ages ago. The hardware auto-detection is much better now a days.
[03:56] <bobbob1016> spheard: one sec, I'll probably sign out, since it reboots the internet after doing that
[03:56] <desertc> Hello all thanks for supporting Ubuntu here.
[03:56] <Toshibi> I have been using Ubuntu now for 9 months and I still can't get my SATA Optical Drive to work
[03:56] <desertc> Question: What would cause "ps -ef" to freeze up?  I can't even ^C out of it.
[03:56] <varka> James_M: if you want to install the verion from the standart repository - yes, if you want to install the latest version - no
[03:56] <Dr_willis> Toshibi,  ive never seven SEEN a sata optical drive.  the makers just dont seem to want to put a lot of them ouyt in stores yet.
[03:57] <nelsonuwp> spheard: any additional info? it opens VLC and sits
[03:57] <James_M> then go to add/remove and install from there?
[03:57] <Toshibi> Dr_Willis, I know, but I've had one now for about 2 years
[03:57] <Dr_willis> Toshibi,  sounds very cutting edge. :) may be so new that it dident follow some standards.  What brand is this anyway?
 Messages?
[03:57] <Toshibi> MSI
[03:58] <varka> James_M: try to get familiar with synaptic, the add/remove-thing is a bit of a castrated synaptic
[03:58] <Dr_willis> sata dvd drives been out for 2 years.. i go to the store.. see ONE for sale and its 2x the cost of the others. :(
[03:58] <spheard> quio, er dmesg, messages faillog, anything that got updated today :-), make sure you put them all in the same paste one after another
[03:58] <varka> James_M: you remember that "third-party-software" menu?
[03:58] <James_M> varka: ok add/remove = eunich
[03:58] <Toshibi> I got this one for $69
[03:58] <spheard> quio just do "cat *"
[03:58] <James_M> yes
[03:58] <Toshibi> It's SATA DVD/CD_RW
[03:58] <spheard> and paste that
[03:59] <varka> James_M: open it
[03:59] <spheard> quio in /var/log/
[03:59] <James_M> varka: done
[03:59] <nelsonuwp> spheard: its not catching it for some reason
[03:59] <spheard> nelsonuwp you need to set it up
[03:59] <Toshibi> It workd out of the box back when I was running Windows....
[04:00] <spheard> nelsonuwp install the vlc player, sudo apt-get install vls
[04:00] <Toshibi> It's my one gripe
[04:00] <varka> James_M: press "add.." and put in the following line: deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt feisty main
[04:01] <spheard> Toshibi: at least your data is safe
[04:01] <VoX> anyone want to help me with this error --> acx: firmware image 'acx/default/tiacx100c11' was not provided. Check your hotplug scripts  which is what i get when trying to enable my wireless nic
[04:01] <James_M> varka: done
[04:01] <wols_>  VoX have you installed the firmware?
[04:01] <desertc> Ubuntu 7.04: Trying to open System Monitor freezes, trying to run "ps -ef" freezes while mid-list, and there are no unusual errors in /var/log/message   ---  Where do I check next for diagnostics?
[04:01] <varka> James_M: open a terminal and enter: wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg
[04:01] <Toshibi> Spheard, I hear that...I would still love to have this drive working
 I am a newb so I am not exactly sure how I do this.  I am very computer literate though but do not know this os. sorry :(
[04:01] <nelsonuwp> spheard: vls?
[04:01] <Toshibi> VLC is an excellent player
[04:01] <varka> James_M: now go back to synaptic and do that "import key"-thing we did before but now with the recently downloaded 387EE263.gpg in your homefolder
[04:01] <spheard> Toshibi: ah, sata, what version of ubuntu are you on? did you install with sata support
[04:01] <VoX> wols_: i would if i could find said firmwares in the packages
[04:01] <spheard> nelsonuwp vlc sorry
[04:02] <quio> VLC is great.
[04:02] <James_M> varka: it is still waiting for a responce
[04:02] <julien`> Hi
[04:02] <wols_> VoX: it is not in the packages. you need to copy it fom the windows driver
[04:02] <Toshibi> Spheard, it's 7.04 and it's just the sata optical drive...all of my other SATA drives work
[04:02] <VoX> wols_: ...right
[04:02] <julien`> I've made available grsecurity kernels for Ubuntu: http://kernelsec.cr0.org
[04:02] <VoX> wols_: please dont tell me i need to run ndis aswell
[04:02] <spheard> quio: in a terminal run, sudo cat /var/log/*
[04:03] <wols_> VoX: no you don't need mndiswrapper, but you do need the firmware for your card
[04:03] <spheard> Toshibi: tried booting a live CD from it?
[04:03] <wols_> Toshibi: what does dmesg say?
[04:03] <Toshibi> Yeah...
[04:03] <Toshibi> wols, I'm not sure...I'm mostly just complaining...
[04:03] <James_M> varka: error 404 not found
[04:03] <wols_> Toshibi: if you don't want to solve your problem, suit yourself
[04:04] <James_M> varka: i might have mistyped
[04:04] <ubuntu> someone know how to install skype for ubuntu server
 That command gives me a bunch of garble on the screen.
[04:04] <Toshibi> I just unplugged the drive and use PATA
[04:04] <ubuntu> without gui?
[04:04] <spheard> bobbob1016 how you getting along?
[04:04] <varka> James_M: server seems to be down, you have to wait or install the older one from the standart repository
[04:04] <spheard> quio: garble?, copy and paste it
[04:04] <wols_> ubuntu: skype will always need xlibs
[04:04] <spheard> quio: all of it
[04:05] <ubuntu> wols_: i have ubuntu server and i need to install it.
[04:05] <ubuntu> wols_: what can i do?
[04:05] <Lo_Pan> vox fails at juirelezz
[04:05] <wols_> ubuntu: install it and use remote X
[04:05] <ubuntu> wols_: what is remote x?
[04:05] <James_M> varka: ok I don't need it RIGHT now. I can wait I think I will just play around with these free games I downloaded ^_^
[04:05] <ubuntu> wols_: man tell me how to install and use remote x?
[04:05] <wols_> the program runs on your server but the GUI output of it is on some other PC where you have a GUI
[04:05] <VoX> shush pan
[04:05] <Lo_Pan> :(
[04:06] <spheard> ubuntu: why do you want to install it on a server? its more a client side thing
[04:06] <wols_> !x forwarding
[04:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about x forwarding - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:06] <pinguim66> what's sources.list for universe repository feisty
[04:06] <varka> James_M: have fun, you'll find me here if you have any questions later
[04:06] <varka> bye
[04:06] <James_M> varka: thanks man :)
[04:06] <ubuntu> spheard: becouse i want to install there.
[04:06] <James_M> varka: you a friend
[04:06] <ubuntu> wols_: man how to install it.
[04:06] <Dr_willis> ubuntu,  remote X? i normally just 'ssh -X remoteip' then run the x apps i want
[04:06] <wols_> ubuntu: do you have a desktop you can run an xserver on?
[04:06] <Dr_willis> ubuntu,  theres also ways to get a complete desktop running remotely with xdmcp, or ya could use vnc
[04:06] <varka> James_M: well, its a "support-channel" you know?! 8)
 ok here it is http://pastebin.ca/572047 Thanks for your help.
[04:07] <ubuntu> wols_:now i have ubuntu desktop on another computer but want to install on server
[04:07] <ubuntu> wols_: how to make it to install on server and then use it from there.
[04:07] <wols_> ubuntu: simply install it and redirect your X output
[04:08] <ubuntu> wols_: ok man,can you tell me how.
[04:08] <James_M> varka: yeah heck never even had this kind of support from people I PAID. heck for my wireless card they outsourced the tech support and when you call they patch you thru to someone who doesn't know proper english ^_^
[04:08] <wols_> no I won't
[04:08] <Dr_willis> ubuntu,  you mean you wish to clone one install to another machine?
[04:08] <wols_> Dr_willis: no he means he wants to run a remote X session
[04:08] <James_M> varka: i don't know where you are from but i understood you :)
[04:08] <ubuntu> Dr_willis: no,i want to install skype on server
[04:08] <spheard> quio: yeh, that is rather a mess
[04:08] <varka> James_M: germany ;)
[04:08] <ubuntu> wols_: to control,for example from another computer
[04:08] <Dr_willis> Can a remote X session handle SOUND ?
 I do not know if that is what you needed but that is what came out of the terminal.
[04:08] <spheard> quio: forgot about the binary logs
[04:08] <ubuntu> wols_: from the academy in Barcelona
[04:09] <wols_> Dr_willis: there are ways. e.g. NAS
[04:09] <James_M> varka: cool. Well Europe has excellent English classes. India? Not so much.
[04:09] <ubuntu> wols_: man tell how.
[04:09] <James_M> varka: so I just said screw it and got a 50 foot ethernet cable ^_^
[04:09] <wols_> ubuntu: no I won't. it will take ages for you to understand and do it. google it yourself
[04:09] <Dr_willis> wols_,  heh - i just set up KDM/GDM to haev that 'query' option where they show all the servers that are set for XDMCP
[04:09] <ubuntu> wols_: ehhhh,man
[04:09] <spheard> quio: paste dmesg, messages and anything else that looks likely, you looking for ndiwrapper somewhere
[04:09] <ubuntu> wols_: only thsi
[04:10] <spheard> ubuntu: thats quite advanced stuff
[04:10] <varka> James_M: hehe, ok, but lets stop off-topic chat now :) im gonna take a shower
[04:10] <wols_> ubuntu: you don't have the slightest requsite knowledge to pull it off and I have no inclination to do your work for your for days
[04:10] <James_M> varka: thanks again
[04:10] <varka> np
[04:10] <ubuntu> spheard: do you know how to do it.
[04:10] <ubuntu> wols_: bah,you are not helping on the peoples.
[04:10] <Dr_willis> ubuntu,  google for 'xdmcp' and enable it on the server
[04:10] <spheard> ubuntu: I could work it out with out too much problem
[04:11] <bobbob1016_> spheard, I'm on a different PC, I reinstalled network-manager-gnome, and wpa_supplicant, and it asked for my wpa password when I booted, but still it isn't connecting
[04:11] <jlaw> !dvd
[04:11] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[04:11] <Dr_willis> ubuntu,  i think most of us are still not clear as to what you are trying to do.
[04:11] <spheard> bobbob1016_: havent you disabled wpa?
[04:11] <wols_> ubuntu: stop being lazy
[04:11] <ubuntu> Dr_willis: i want to install skype on ubuntu server
[04:11] <bobbob1016_> spheard, yeah, and it connected, then I re-enabled it
[04:11] <wols_> ubuntu: and I did help you by telling you what to use. I'd start with freenx btw
[04:11] <ubuntu> Dr_willis: And from there to control it
[04:11] <Toshibi> ubuntu: http://egopoly.com/archives/2006/05/enabling_remote.html Remote X Server
[04:12] <bobbob1016_> spheard, I'm not taking it down permanently
[04:12] <wols_> Toshibi: it's unlikely that this will enable sound across the network
[04:12] <spheard> bobbob1016_: no, no, just try a differnet encryption protocoll
[04:12] <Dr_willis> ubuntu,  easy way.. install vnc on the remote box. connect to the vnc session, run/controll the apps.
[04:12] <desertc> I'm having a HW or low-level Ubuntu problem.  Where do I go to troubleshoot?  I've tried messages (nothing) and ps -ef (freezes)
[04:12] <ubuntu> Dr_willis: this is server man,there is no gui?
[04:13] <nelsonuwp> spheard: i think it works.. can you try one of the lost episodes at tv-links becasue those dont seem to be working for me
[04:13] <Toshibi> wols_: It's worth a shot
[04:13] <ubuntu> Toshibi: and after that when i enable how to enter .
[04:13] <wols_> Toshibi: no it's not since it won't do sound this way
[04:13] <Dr_willis> ubuntu,  skype is a GUI program.. how ya going to run it without X installed in the first place?
[04:13] <bobbob1016_> spheard, which one?  I'm not sure what I can change, everyone in my house blames me the second anything goes wrong with the network, and if I change something, they will blame that for any issue, if the web is slightly slow, I'll be blamed
[04:13] <Toshibi> wols_: I know, but there are also remote access sound servers which I'm googling up for someone unwilling to google themselves.
[04:13] <bobbob1016_> spheard, etc.
[04:13] <ubuntu> Dr_willis: that i ask,how to install on ubunt userver
[04:13] <wols_> Dr_willis: do you know that X is a client server architecture that was made for this?
[04:14] <ubuntu> wols_:  do you see,if you don't help nobody know
[04:14] <ubuntu> wols_: ok can you repeat again.
[04:14] <Dr_willis> wols_,  will skype even run properly is the question.. of coure VNC sort of works without X i think. (not sure)
[04:14] <Tom47> desertc i am not great on troubleshooting myself but when i do i usually start by looking at the logs System>Administration>System Logs of course you need to get into gnome for thta
[04:14] <Toshibi> Yes, X is a true Server, but is set not to listen on TCP by default
[04:14] <quio> http://pastebin.ca/572057
[04:14] <desertc> Tom47: Thank you for your advice.
[04:14] <wols_> Dr_willis: and X program will work without an X server on the machine. any of them
[04:14] <ubuntu> Toshibi: when enable this that you send me the site,how to enter then?
[04:15] <quio> Does this help?
[04:15] <bobbob1016_> spheard, I'll play with it then, so now I know it is the WPA at least
[04:15] <Toshibi> ubuntu: Have you attempted googling up any of this yourself? My first stop is Google.
[04:15] <ubuntu> Toshibi: man,i will,but i don't know if i find the correct
[04:16] <ubuntu> wols_: man can you repeat again,to be installed what
[04:16] <Toshibi> ubuntu: This is some moderately advanced stuff. Are you sure that you feel comfortable doing this?
[04:16] <ubuntu> Toshibi: bah,i want skype on ubuntu server.
[04:16] <wols_> freenx for example. or the nAS sound server or similar for that sound part
[04:17] <ubuntu> wols_: that was for me?
[04:17] <Dr_willis> wols_,  then ssh -X to it and run the program then.
[04:17] <spheard> bobbob1016_: know what you mean :-) fuckin luddites eh?
[04:17] <matt1982> hey guys is there some solution to having 640x480 on a live CD i cant install or change resolution
[04:17] <Hadron> does ubuntu stock kernel not support smp? The smp kernel is tagged as obsolete in synaptic and the linux-image-generic reports  "WARNING: NR_CPUS limit of 1 reached.  Processor ignored."
[04:17] <Dr_willis> :) oh wait wrong person. heh. Still not sure what the 'hard part' of this is.
[04:17] <ubuntu> Dr_willis: who?
[04:17] <ubuntu> wols_: man
[04:17] <ubuntu> wols_: one question?
[04:18] <Toshibi> ubuntu: Why exactly are you running Ubuntu Server? Are you actually serving anything on the server?
[04:18] <wols_> Hadron: what does cat /proc/cpuinfo say?
[04:18] <Dr_willis> ubuntu,  you can just 'ssh -X' to the remote box and run skype if its installed. Should then show up locally. but be running on the remote box.
[04:18] <ubuntu> Toshibi: becouse the amd 2000+ freeze on GUI menu
[04:18] <Dr_willis> Oh.. thats a great reason. :)
[04:18] <Hadron> wols: which parameter?
[04:18] <bobbob1016_> spheard, kind of, with good reason, I used to use kazaa YEARS and YEARS ago, and that was my problem, so even now I'm still blamed
[04:18] <Dr_willis> which gui menu?
[04:18] <bobbob1016_> spheard, kind of good reason
[04:18] <wols_> Hadron: no parameter. it will tell you how many cpus your kernel uses
[04:18] <ubuntu> Dr_willis: ga-7vax have a problem with the conditions
[04:19] <matt1982> is there any way to install drivers to a live CD so i can run the install process i cant actually install ubuntu due to it being in 640 480, design fault or what
[04:19] <ubuntu> Dr_willis: and if i stay much in Gui the computer freeze
[04:19] <ubuntu> for that i want someone help
[04:19] <Hadron> no such field from what i can see.
[04:19] <KennyTheGeek> Anyone got a "test your router for open ports to the outer world, and write them to a log" script? cause i tried many - low as high - ports
[04:19] <wols_> matt1982: what is your videocard? and your monitor?
[04:19] <wols_> KennyTheGeek: what router is this?
[04:19] <matt1982> wols_: Its an ati and the monitor is a 17" proview crt
[04:19] <jeayese> hey
[04:19] <wols_> matt1982: what ati?
[04:19] <bulmer> bobbob1016_: in the real world of corporations, the network people is always blamed for unknown  ills...
[04:20] <jeayese> can someone help me now?
[04:20] <Toshibi> Kenny, you could try something like nmap and pipe out the results
[04:20] <Hadron> wols, anyway I know from dmesg that its only using one. See the first line I logged here.
[04:20] <KennyTheGeek> wols_: it's a siemens, but my isp locked it through a serial port on the back
[04:20] <Dr_willis> ubuntu,  now thats a curious problem.. wonder if its overheating.. or a video card/driver issue.
[04:20] <matt1982> wols_: ati 256mb agp 9550
[04:20] <ubuntu> Dr_willis: this is the problem from the motherboard
[04:20] <KennyTheGeek> wols_: theres no access to the firewall settings... other than through that serial port
[04:20] <ubuntu> Dr_willis: i read in forums
[04:20] <ubuntu> wols_: man are you here.
[04:20] <Tom47> !ask | jeayese
[04:20] <quio> Hello.  I have a d510 laptop that had its wireless working a few days ago.  All of a sudden it stopped.  I put back in a hard drive with os with XP hard drive and the wireless worked.  Can someone help me getting this back up again?  I am a newb trying to migrate away from Microsoft and am very computer literate but do not know a lot about Ubuntu.  I can get around very easily though.  I looked online for help for a few days but no
[04:20] <quio> w I am stumped.
[04:20] <ubuntu> Toshibi:
[04:20] <ubotu> jeayese: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:21] <lalcaraz> hi, is there any way to get support for feisty fawn for server??
[04:21] <jeayese> I have steam running in wine
[04:21] <jeayese> and when i start a game i get the following error
[04:21] <jeayese> SteamStart()failed: SteamStartup(0xf,0x003Dff44) failed with error
[04:21] <KennyTheGeek> lalcaraz: #ubuntu-server
[04:21] <Toshibi> KennyTheGeek: Have you tried something like nmap 'ip address of your router' | yourtexteditor ?
[04:21] <KennyTheGeek> :P
[04:21] <Toshibi> ?
[04:21] <lalcaraz> thanxs :)
[04:21] <Hadron> wols: anymore to say?
[04:21] <Me2resh> hi, i need help, evolution crashes whenever i start it, it comes in gray
[04:21] <bulmer> KennyTheGeek: umm a separate serial port on the back? just like cisco routers, separate control port
[04:21] <KennyTheGeek> Toshibi: no, whats nmap :S
[04:21] <wols_> Toshibi: nmapping from inside his LAN won't help a bit
[04:22] <whyameye> 6.06 is dapper? 7.04 is feisty? what version # is edgy?
[04:22] <wols_> Hadron: no. either do what I said or I cannot help you
[04:22] <Tom47> 6.10
[04:22] <spheard> bobbob1016_: I recon, If Im going to admin it I get to chew the bandwidth
[04:22] <wols_> matt1982: use the altnerate CD. install X and such later
[04:22] <KennyTheGeek> bulmer: yes, but this isn't a Cisco Systems router, but some weird router the ISP gave us with the internet connection
[04:22] <Toshibi> wols_: That's why he should do an nmap of the WAN address....it's been a while since I have messed with any of that stuff though
[04:23] <Toshibi> KennyTheGeek: nmap is a port scanner
[04:23] <wols_> Toshibi: he cannot do a nmap of that cause no matter what he will reach the router throught he lAN interface
[04:23] <KennyTheGeek> ah
[04:23] <Hadron> wols_: I did. As I said there is no field in the file describing number of CPUs. DMESG also repost it is only using 1 cpu.
[04:23] <matt1982> wols_: hmm ok seems a bit hard will give it a go though
[04:23] <Toshibi> maybe he can try it from a friends house?
[04:23] <wols_> Hadron: paste your /proc/cpuinfo please
[04:23] <Me2resh> hi, i need help, evolution crashes whenever i start it, it comes in gray
[04:24] <Hadron> I just googled. The generic kernel package does NOT in fact cover multi cpus.
[04:24] <KennyTheGeek> wols_: if i do nmap 83.93.*.* i will get through my isp, and back again, or atleast it blocks port 80 if i connect to that adress instead of the internal one
[04:24] <Hadron> ciao.

 Here is the log.  I forgot your name and got locked out of IRC.  http://pastebin.ca/572075
[04:24] <bobbob1016_> spheard, yeah, but my dad, the programmer since punch cards blames me for IP conflicts, even though my static ones are under 100, and DHCP starts at 100, and he also blames me for poor signal when he's behind the kitchen, fridge and stove and everything
[04:25] <bulmer> KennyTheGeek: same concept, separate serial port for controlling it, so get hold of the correct serial cable and connect to it
[04:25] <bobbob1016_> spheard, so I don't want to say "we're on wep or wpa2 now, here's the code"
[04:25] <KennyTheGeek> bulmer: he, yeah, but then the problem is the lack of RS-232 ports on my comps :P

[04:29] <DJ-_-> wols_: what about setting the directories under that too?
[04:29] <wols_> DJ-_-: man chmod
[04:29] <DJ-_-> wols_: ok
 I have a dell d510 with a wireless dw1470 card in it.  It just stopped working out of no where.  I can however put in the laptop another hard drive running xp and it is fine.
[04:29] <ferronica> ZeroA4: you mean right click?
[04:29] <wols_> quio: what chip?
[04:29] <ZeroA4> ferronica, yes

[04:30] <ferronica> ZeroA4: after that
 I am not sure how to determine that.  I am sorry.
[04:30] <wols_> quio: lspci
[04:31] <ferronica> ZeroA4: RESIZE
[04:31] <KennyTheGeek> wow, just did a check, and i only got 6 open, but filtered ports... :O
[04:31] <Me2resh> ubotu, thanks man, but i am in deep trouble
[04:31] <wols_> KennyTheGeek: on your router?
[04:31] <wols_> that's 6 too many
[04:31] <wols_> Me2resh: ubotu is a bot
[04:31] <PriceChild> Me2resh, you start it... it keeps grey and crashes immediately?
[04:31] <ZeroA4> ferronica, the disc is fully used?
[04:32] <Me2resh> PriceChild, yes, and i see in the status bar "fetching mail"
[04:32] <PriceChild> Me2resh, have you checked launchpad?
[04:32] <DJ-_-> wols_: is there a timeout in nautilus? cuz i can access the directores with terminal now but the file manager says access denied
[04:32] <KennyTheGeek> wols_: yeah
 http://pastebin.ca/572082
[04:32] <Me2resh> PriceChild, how ?
[04:32] <mikeyhatesms> i had to abort two installs because i got to a point where feisty said that i dint have any files or docs suitabbble for migration or import.  don't know what the partition parameters should be i guess.
[04:33] <wols_> quio: do you use ndiswrapper or the native bcm43xx driver?
[04:33] <stevej> !mplayer
[04:33] <ubotu> mplayer is a media player. It resides in the mutiverse repository and can easily be installed via applications -> add/remove. For codecs try !codecs
[04:33] <stevej> !codecs
 NDiswrapper

[04:33] <PriceChild> Me2resh, well if your problem is similar to any bugs reported here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution
[04:33] <wols_> is ndiswrappe loaded?
[04:34] <DJ-_-> is there a timeout in nautilus? cuz i juz chged some folder permissions and can access the directores with terminal now but the file manager says access denied
[04:34] <Tom47> mikeyhatesms: you dont HAVE to have any .... just proceed
 should i reinstall the driver again?
[04:34] <wols_> under what user do you runt he terminal, under what user does nautilus run?
[04:34] <bobbob1016_> spheard, I did that when I put WPA on, he didn't buy it, so if I do it now, there's less of a chance he'll believe me
[04:34] <lalcaraz> I have this issue: after install ubuntu 7.04 server editions, shows the grub and then the PC restarts itself falling into a continous reset ... what could it be ???
[04:34] <DJ-_-> wols_: same user
[04:34] <bobbob1016_> spheard, not the child thing, but still
[04:34] <DJ-_-> wols_ chged permission with root
 i reinstalled ndiswrapper
[04:35] <wols_> lalcaraz: shows what of grub
[04:35] <ferronica> ZeroA4: can i RESIZE or creat partition on working ubuntu 7.04 HDD
[04:35] <wols_> quio: that's not what I asked
 just to make sure.
[04:35] <wols_> ferronica: no
[04:36] <lalcaraz> the countdown to start ... then shows the label STARTING ... and then reboots
[04:36] <wols_> lalcaraz: does it show the krenels of ubuntu?
[04:36] <lalcaraz> yep,
[04:36] <wols_> lalcaraz: what cpu do you have and what kernel have you installed?
[04:36] <samuel> anyone know how i can get sound in totem when playing aac files?
[04:37] <lalcaraz> pentium 3 and default CD installation
 I appologize what information were you looking for?
[04:37] <ferronica> wols_: i have to reformat HDD to creat two partition???
[04:37] <Tom47> ferronica but you can use a livecd to do it
[04:37] <wols_> ferronica: no
[04:37] <wols_> 16:34 < wols_> is ndiswrappe loaded?
[04:38] <bobbob1016_> spheard, it might be a keyring issue, since now when I enter the WPA password, it tries to connect, then when I try again, I have to re-enter the password
[04:38] <lalcaraz> my grub shows this: Ubuntu Kernel 2.6.20-15-server,
[04:38] <cody_penguin> or
[04:39] <cody_penguin> can vmware or virtualbox run in text based mode?
[04:39] <sn0> samiam totem uses totem-gstreamer by default, so you will need to install the extra plugins
[04:39] <sn0> samuel * even sorry
[04:39] <KennyTheGeek> well, i can forget everyting about getting my server online for real, until i make it replace the router...
[04:40] <lalcaraz> root (hd0,0)
[04:40] <KennyTheGeek> But do you know any *better* media streaming server than GNUMP3?
[04:40] <lalcaraz> kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.60.20-15-server root=UUID=2984f735-75b1-47c7 .....
[04:40] <lalcaraz> initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.60.20-15-server
[04:40] <lalcaraz> quiet
[04:40] <lalcaraz> savedefault
[04:40] <sn0> so goto Applications > Add/Remove , search for gstreamer and enable the plugins :)
[04:40] <samuel> cody_penguin, qemu can, just use the no video output option... i imagine they all have something similar
[04:40] <samuel> sn0, thanks
[04:40] <sn0> samuel hope it helps
 ?
[04:41] <cody_penguin> qemu is also the same with virtualbox or vmware, am i right?
[04:41] <wols_> quio: either you answer my question or I cannot help you
 What question?
[04:41] <cody_penguin> cuz im planning to create a nat server and a web server on one pc with virtual machine in it
[04:41] <samuel> cody_penguin, its a virtualization program, yes... faster than vmware some say
[04:41] <cody_penguin> oh ok
[04:42] <sn0> samuel i believe its gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse package
[04:42] <samuel> sn0, you know the comman line for add-remove?
 I am sorry but I lost track of what you were requesting.
[04:42] <sn0> samiam  so you can install that from synaptic in the gui, or sudo aptitude install , at the terminal
[04:42] <wols_> quio: I will not say it a 3rd time. use /lastlog
[04:43] <hdj> hallo
[04:43] <DJ-_-> does anyone know whether nautilius has a timeout? I can access directories that i just chmod with terminal but with nautilus it gives access denied....both processes under same user too....any ideas?
[04:43] <sn0> samuel even sorry, too many users ;] 
[04:43] <wols_> DJ-_-: why do you care about timeouts when you get a permission denied message?
[04:43] <samuel> sn0, hmm... its already installed... the odd thing is the file works perfect in mplayer... but no sound in totem
[04:43] <DJ-_-> wols_ how do i access that directory in GUI then?
[04:44] <MateIn4> How to configure USB devices that have multiple configurations?
 Here is the log file http://pastebin.ca/572097
[04:44] <sn0> samuel that is strange, did you perhaps remove totem-gstreamer ?
[04:44] <nomasteryoda> wols_, he means that if he chmod and there should be no delay
[04:44] <sn0> you can use totem-xine to use the xine back end, or totem-gstreamer to use the gstreamer + plugins
[04:44] <sn0> ubuntu defaults to totem-gstreamer however
[04:44] <samuel> sn0, aaah.... its totem-xine in there
[04:44] <samuel> thanks
[04:44] <Tom47> cody_penguin: there is a useful overview of qemu here along wih, at the bottom of it, links for related questions you have been asking http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QEMU
[04:44] <cjae> can someone tell me how to spell scentuous
[04:44] <wols_> DJ-_-: by setting the proper perms
[04:44] <cjae> ???????????
[04:45] <wols_> DJ-_-: and ownerships
[04:45] <sn0> samuel then that would probably be it :), i only remember because i had trouble with AC3 in gstreamer.. :-)

[04:51] <gpastor> Hi. I've two laptops with feisty installed and wireless cards working OK (broadcom and intel). However, when I try to create may own wireless network the network-manager applet fails after a while. It happens at both laptops. Is this normal?

[04:52] <dylan_> hi everyone.
[04:52] <ctothej> i installed a program that needs shared libraries installed in a non-default location (specifically /usr/local/ws/lib). I keep getting an error " ... libws.so.3.97: cannot open shared object file ... ". How can I have the program see the shared library file?
[04:52] <ubuntu> VoX: they say that i can install it
[04:52] <dylan_> is there any way i can install ubuntu via my USB flash drive?  it is 2gb large and can easily fit ubuntu on it.
[04:53] <freddy__> hi- just upgraded from breezy to dapper  - now X wont start - get error: no 'kbd' and no 'mouse'?
[04:53] <penguin42> ctothej: You could copy the library to that location, or symlink it - or you could try setting up LD_LIBRARAY_PATH to point to the real location
[04:53] <ubuntu> VoX: are you here?
[04:53] <wols_> ctothej: do you have the needed shared lib on disk?
[04:53] <ubuntu> VoX: they say that can be runned on X something
[04:53] <ctothej> wols_: yes it already exists in /usr/local/ws/lib
[04:53] <opensores> everytime I reboot I get an error msg telling me /dev/mapper/testcrypt doesn't exist
[04:53] <MattJ> dylan_, http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-install-ubuntu-linux-on-usb-bar
[04:53] <VoX> ubuntu: er, it will on run on a graphical display. not on a command line.
 here is the lsmod output http://pastebin.ca/572098
[04:54] <opensores> i have to manually create it with cryptsetup each time, how do i make it automatic
[04:54] <bulmer> ctothej: check your library paths,  type env and see if you can recognize
[04:54] <ubuntu> VoX: hmm,they say that i can install some Remote X Server access on Ubuntu
[04:54] <ubuntu> VoX: do you know how to install it.
[04:54] <ctothej> I set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable using the "env" command to add /usr/local/ws/lib, but i still get the error
[04:54] <wols_> ctothej: is the directory in your /etc/ld.so.conf ?
[04:55] <kanzie_> When I booted my machine now my second NTFS-formatted disk wont appear. Im running fuse for mounting it but I dont know how to do it manually or why it has been removed from fstab. Can someone please assist me!
[04:55] <ctothej> wols_: not sure. ill check now
[04:55] <VoX> ubuntu: ...you still need a graphical interface to access a remote x server.
[04:55] <ubuntu> VoX: they say that be accessed
[04:55] <gpastor> bulmer: it opens the green light with the animation but never starts the second green light and after a while it does not create a network
[04:55] <ctothej> wols_: it is not there
[04:55] <wols_> VoX: the remove x server IS the graphical interface...
[04:55] <coldsteal> i did aptitude remove apache2;rm -fr /etc/apache2;aptitude install apache2 and now it wont start because the new install didnt put apache2.conf in /etc/apache2/ so how do i do an install with aptitude so it actually installs everything new again
[04:55] <ubuntu> VoX: i have ubuntu desktop on another computer
[04:58] <VoX> wols_: that wasnt what i was infering
[04:58] <VoX> ubuntu: then run it on that computer
[04:58] <wols_> coldsteal: you don't rm config files, you purge them
[04:58] <wols_> VoX: I know. but it is what you _said_
[04:58] <ubuntu> VoX: bah,man i need to run on the server.
[04:58] <gpastor> bulmer, I ended up attaching a crossed network cable at both machines, and zeroconf worked just right :-) But I would like to be able to create my own wireless network....
[04:58] <bulmer> gpastor zeroconf? thats windows noh?
[04:58] <coldsteal> wols_: well i did so how do i fix it
[04:58] <gpastor> bulmer, avahi
[04:58] <VoX> ubuntu: then install vncserver, start the vncserver, install it on that, then connect to the vncserver from the desktop.
[04:58] <freddy__> Starting x I get error: failed to load module 'kdb' - what can I do about that ?
[04:58] <wols_> coldsteal: I told you. alternatively you can use confmiss via dpkg-reconfigure
[04:58] <bulmer> gpastor: oh, i have not toyed with the new avahi yet
?
[04:58] <cjae> can you say aww inspiring ??
[04:58] <gpastor> bulmer, both laptops do only have feisty installed :) and if you attach a crossed cable between the, thanks to avahi you don't have to setup the network: it is setup automagically and you see the other party as host "other_party.local"
[04:58] <raqamy> how to increase the number of loop devices?
[04:59] <gpastor> bulmer, the point is that I don't want to use the cable, I wish I could use the wireless....
[04:59] <wols_> quio: ndiswrapper is not loaded
[04:59] <bulmer> gpastor umm when you say your own local network..network to me is more than two puters.. :)
[04:59] <wols_> quio: get a ndiswrapper howto and check how it will be loaded
[04:59] <coldsteal> wols_: okay thanks
[04:59] <JonathanMM> Bonjour
[04:59] <gpastor> bulmer, yeah, in this case is a newtork of two only :P
[04:59] <bulmer> gpastor: you need an AP not an adhoc connecting inter-laptop connectivity
[05:00] <gpastor> bulmer, sorry, "AP"?
[05:00] <Elshiftos> Is there any way to use the live cd as an installer?
[05:00] <wols_> Elshiftos: yes there is
[05:00] <cjae> wow u can
[05:00] <DjViper> gpastor: access point
[05:00] <ubuntu> VoX: and how to do it.

[05:00] <kanzie_> can anyone help me mount my ntfs disk on my feasty
[05:00] <Elshiftos> wols_ how?
[05:01] <Lo_Pan> feasty!
[05:01] <gpastor> bulmer, DjViper , perhaps I am wrong. Can't the laptop become an access point?
[05:01] <cjae> this is what happens when u get 92 % in algebra and a pass in english lol
[05:01] <DjViper> gpastor: It can
[05:01] <chris___> exit

[05:01] <gpastor> DjViper, and, how do I do that?
[05:01] <ubuntu> VoX: ????
[05:01] <DjViper> gpastor: I dont know, soryr
[05:01] <DjViper> sorry*
[05:01] <bulmer> gpastor depends on your wifi card and driver, if it can be acting as AP
[05:02] <gpastor> bulmer, Hmmm,
[05:02] <gpastor> bulmer, t
[05:02] <gpastor> bulmer, -sorry- in case it could, it should be done via the network-manager-applet I guess....
[05:03] <bulmer> gpastor: umm not sure if you have to use network-manager though
[05:03] <ubuntu> someone here
[05:03] <Elshiftos> I want to install from the cd before it has booted into live

[05:10] <Gnea> ianian: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=301
[05:10] <kanzie_> Gnea: please help me
[05:10] <ianian> thnks
[05:10] <preaction> Perdente: compiz is far more stable, but beryl has far more effects. they're re-merging, so soon there won't be a difference
[05:10] <Perdente> alright!
[05:10] <zbadone> how do I install a 64 bit version of jre
[05:10] <Perdente> thanks preaction
[05:10] <cody_penguin> is there a way to clear this lists of opened files in my totem player?
[05:10] <zbadone> cody_penguin, I dont think anybody has an answer for you at this time
[05:10] <Gnea> kanzie_: disappeared?
[05:10] <preaction> cody_penguin: you could look through gconf for the values, i imagine they're in there
[05:10] <preaction> cody_penguin: otherwise be proud of your perversions
[05:10] <wols_> cody_penguin: grep -r <filenam> ~/*
[05:11] <ianm_> is it safe to uninstall something (eg. xsane) that says it will uninstall ubuntu-desktop ?
[05:11] <wols_> ianm_: yes
[05:11] <Gnea> ianian: this might be a bit better: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BitTorrent
[05:11] <wols_> ubuntu-desktop is a meta package only
[05:12] <cody_penguin> im proud sometimes but as of now i cant hehehe

[05:12] <romudog> Anyone here using Pidgin source that can help me with SSL?
[05:12] <Gnea> !ask > romudog
[05:12] <zbadone> can you use packages marked as amd64 on an Intel 64 bit machine?
[05:13] <kanzie_> gnea: Yep, just is not moutned anymore
[05:14] <wols_> zbadone: if you mean on pentiums core2duos and Xeons: yes. if you mean itanium: no
[05:14] <romudog> Who can help me with ssl for msn in pidgin it wont lemme login without ssl and i have ssl if you know my problem your welcome to help me.
[05:14] <kanzie_> gnea: Its not even in my fstab...like if its broken, but it works fine in windows
[05:14] <zbadone> wols_: ty
[05:15] <zbadone> wols_, is there a 64 bit of java for Firefox?
[05:15] <Tom47> zbadone usually the 64 relates to whether you are running a 64 bit kernel rather than simply the hardware ..... as far as i can tell there is virtually no benefit and some penalties in using 64 bit kernels
[05:15] <wols_> zbadone: dunno
[05:15] <Gnea> kanzie_: fstab doesn't mean much, it's whether or not it's actually on the disk that matters - fdisk -l /dev/sda   <-- try something like that
[05:15] <zbadone> Tom47, I just installed Feisty 64 on my new laptop
[05:16] <Louie`> Does iptables have any function unconfigured in ubuntu feisty? Becuse my torrent downloads going deadslow
[05:16] <Gnea> Louie`: what day of the week is it?
[05:16] <wols_> Louie`: are you behind a router?
[05:16] <zbadone> so there is no REAL benefit to running 64 bit vs. 32 Ubuntu
[05:16] <kanzie_> gnea: cannot open it says
[05:16] <HOT> anyone else had problems with avant window manager since the last update?
[05:17] <HOT> its broken basically
[05:17] <wols_> zbadone: there is
[05:17] <Gnea> kanzie_: do you know the actual name of the hard disk?
[05:17] <kanzie_> /dev/sdb1
[05:17] <Louie`> Yes, I'm behind a router, but there is a port open.
[05:17] <zbadone> wols_, how so? faster ? better?
[05:17] <Gnea> that's a partition of a disk, not the disk itself. the disk is /dev/sdb
[05:17] <ianian> any1 know how i istall java?
[05:17] <Guest399> hey, what's the umask I would need to mount a vfat partition so that files aren't executable (i.e. normal)?
[05:17] <wols_> faster, better memory accss for >1GB
[05:18] <Louie`> Torrents works fine in windows but dont work well in Ubuntu ;(
[05:18] <zbadone> wols_, my laptop has 1.5G of memeory
[05:18] <acid-trip> so who's really familiar with 7.04?
[05:18] <ianian> helooo
[05:18] <penguin42> Guest399: Try a umask of 111
[05:18] <zbadone> wols_, looking to show friends and work mates the capabilites of Linux I want the WOW effect
[05:19] <Gnea> kanzie_: you need to read up on how disk partitions and partition types work before you can continue...sec
[05:19] <etm1> You can install at least 4Gb of memory on most motherboards today, but apparently you shouldn't install more than 3Gb if you're not running a 64-bit operating system.
[05:19] <Guest399> penguin42, files on ext3 by default are 644, right?  should i make it 133?
[05:19] <Louie`> Will it cuase any problem if I remove iptables?
[05:19] <kanzie_> ok, fdisk -l on sdb will give me
[05:19] <kanzie_> Disk /dev/sdb: 300.0 GB, 300069052416 bytes
[05:19] <kanzie_> 16 heads, 63 sectors/track, 581421 cylinders

[05:19] <kanzie_> Gnea: so it is there
[05:19] <perlmonkey> wols_ hi
[05:19] <Frogzoo> Louie`: how do you plan to remove iptables - when it's part of the kernel?
[05:19] <penguin42> Guest399: I'm not really sure how umask works with FAT stuff
[05:20] <perlmonkey> all the Debian people r coming here and more and more
[05:20] <Frogzoo> ianian: sudo
[05:20] <kanzie_> perhaps if I try a mount -t ntfs /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1
[05:20] <ianian> ??
[05:20] <ubuntu> bah
[05:20] <perlmonkey> it's kinda sad
[05:20] <Gnea> kanzie_: again, you need to readup on how all of that works. Type 42, SFS is not a valid NTFS partition type.
[05:20] <ubuntu> freenx
[05:20] <ianian> sudo?
[05:20] <ubuntu> is not working
[05:20] <perlmonkey> Gnea you too eh
[05:20] <perlmonkey> crossed over
[05:20] <ubuntu> someone here
[05:20] <Guest399> hm... im trying to prevent the "executable text file" dialog from popping up
[05:20] <Gnea> perlmonkey: been here for awhile
[05:20] <voici> ianian: type sudo su and you are root
[05:20] <ubuntu> i have ubuntu server and want to install skype
[05:20] <ianian> kk fanks
[05:20] <perlmonkey> Gnea: did you give up Debian completely?
[05:20] <preaction> Guest399: chmod -x <file>; or right-click the file and turn off "Execute" privileges
[05:20] <mister_roboto> penguin42: why on earth would you want a umask of 111?
[05:21] <Gnea> perlmonkey: did you get a new crackpipe?
[05:21] <Guest399> preaction, its a vfat parttion
[05:21] <Louie`> Frogzoo, I didn't know that, is iptables active from the beginning?
[05:21] <perlmonkey> Gnea: what does it mean, crackpipe?
[05:21] <Louie`> Maybe thats why my torrents dont work.
[05:21] <Frogzoo> Louie`: yes, but with empty rules
[05:21] <kanzie_> Gnea: Do you have any more specific ideas about what I need to read up on... I think I got the hang of disks and partitions pretty well...
[05:21] <ubuntu> i have ubuntu server and want to install skyp
[05:21] <preaction> Guest399: i do believe there's a no-execute option for vfat partitions
[05:21] <Louie`> Oh, okay.
[05:21] <Gnea> perlmonkey: exactly. :)
[05:21] <ubuntu> some one with how to .
[05:21] <mister_roboto> penguin42: means you couldn't search directories or execute files, by default. normally for the owner, you leave all bits on and turn off write access for others (022)
[05:21] <penguin42> mister_roboto: Because Guest399 asked what the umask was to remove execute
[05:21] <perlmonkey> oh
[05:21] <fugitivo> hello
[05:21] <Gnea> kanzie_: i'm looking for it now, and i beg to differ.
[05:21] <mister_roboto> penguin42: for the owner as well??!!
[05:22] <ubuntu> i find much how to,but are incorrect
[05:22] <mister_roboto> penguin42: and you don't want that on directories for sure
[05:22] <penguin42> mister_roboto: I suspect actually on FAT it doesn't actually work that way - but you have a point
[05:22] <kanzie_> gnea: I cant mount it into a new fdirectory even, it states that sdb1 is already mounted... which it probablt is into the defulty dir, but that one Im not allowed to access for some reason
[05:22] <perlmonkey> I'm wondering how I can get fstab to remount? is it just mount -all?
[05:22] <Guest399> mister_roboto: on a vfat partition with just data, it doesnt matter
[05:22] <kanzie_> gnea: trying to unmount them and start over
[05:22] <Frogzoo> perlmonkey: sudo mount -a
[05:22] <Guest399> mister_roboto: im not running any binaries off of these partitions
[05:22] <perlmonkey> I have adjusted fstab and want to get the chances
[05:22] <perlmonkey> *changes
[05:22] <Frogzoo> perlmonkey: also man mount
[05:22] <nexous> Why is it when i install apache2, it creates an httpd.conf file but it's empty.
[05:22] <perlmonkey> frogzoo many thanks
[05:22] <mister_roboto> Guest399: it certainly does matter if you ever intend to use "ls" on those directories
[05:22] <kanzie_> gnea: But what filetype should I specify to use the Fuse
[05:23] <mister_roboto> Guest399: you need execute permission to search a directory (on the dir i mean)
[05:23] <Guest399> mister_roboto: how so?
[05:23] <romudog> Anyone try out Alien Arena 2007 on nix yet?
[05:23] <Louie`> any idas then? I've tried several torrentprograms but I got the same problem in everyone.
[05:23] <preaction> mister_roboto, guest399: that's why you change the fmask, not the umask
[05:23] <Gnea> kanzie_: first of all, stop right there, and take the time to read this: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/html_single/Partition/
[05:23] <mister_roboto> preaction: he was told to change the umask to 111
[05:23] <Guest399> preaction: fmask=0133,dmask=0022
[05:24] <kazim59> hi... I copied the contents of a dvd movie to a folder... How do I play it now?

[05:24] <HOT> anyone know where to restore file associations? not just the basic ones, a list of all of them?

[05:24] <ubuntu> someone here
[05:24] <wols_> !dvd  > kazim59
[05:24] <Gnea> kanzie_: look for parts that talk about and explain partition types

[05:24] <Guest399> nope, it iddnt

[05:25] <kanzie_> Gnea: So you have no specic ideas as to solve my problem? See, it all worked fine until I did a chkdsk in Windows, now it wont let me access my mounted drive in linux...
[05:25] <wols_> Louie`: I asked you some questions. answer me please
[05:25] <robdeman> wols_: mm and then do what?
[05:25] <Gnea> bronze---: tremulous

[05:25] <ubuntu> bah
[05:26] <nexous> Frogzoo: then where is my apache hosts file? or that in my ubuntu hosts file?
[05:26] <Gnea> kanzie_: until you understand the fundamentals of how it works, there's nothing that i can do to help you.
[05:26] <mister_roboto> bronze---: quake and unreal run on linux. do you mean free games?

[05:26] <bronze---> mister_roboto - not free games, but games the work with linux WITHOUT wine or similar
[05:26] <Louie`> Is there something else i can look at?
[05:26] <fugitivo> anyone using intel video card onboard with G33 chipset?
[05:26] <wols_> Louie`: I asked you on what the torrent program acutally listens
[05:26] <kazim59> wols_: Can you explain how do I create an ISO? the options of mkisofs are too confusing
[05:26] <wols_> Louie`: you you haven't told me that yet
[05:26] <Gnea> ubuntu: use lynx or links
[05:27] <Frogzoo> nexous: do you mean /etc/apache2/sites-available/ ?
[05:27] <kazim59> I've copied the DVD to a folder...
[05:27] <ubuntu> Gnea: what is lynx?
[05:27] <mister_roboto> bronze---: yes, quake and unreal have native clients

[05:32] <ubuntu> i have ubuntu server and want to install skype on it
[05:32] <fugitivo> so, nobody is using intel G33 chipset videocard?
[05:32] <niuq> now this appears http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25977/
[05:33] <fugitivo> intel and i810 xorg drivers doesnt work with that chipset
[05:33] <niuq> i just made what it said, but now this
[05:33] <kanzie_> Im getting "Permission denied" when trying to access my ntfs-mounted drive. Can someone help me trace the source of the error?
[05:33] <voici> ubuntu: apt-get install ubuntu-desktop  ... after that http://www.skype.com/download
[05:33] <ubuntu> Gnea: put the gun and shoot yourself.
[05:33] <ubuntu> voici: i can't install gnome
[05:33] <ubuntu> voici: computer freeze
[05:33] <voici> no GUI no skype
[05:33] <wols_> fugitivo: check intel.com for newer drivers. isntalling them is outside of the scope of ubuntu to. VESA should work too
[05:33] <ubuntu> voici: without gui,with skype
[05:33] <Gnea> ubuntu: you don't deserve to run ubuntu.
[05:34] <ubuntu> Perdente: i will slap you
[05:34] <fugitivo> wols_: yes, i'm using vesa, but that's not what i want
[05:34] <Perdente> lol
[05:34] <bronze---> When I drag and dropped a theme from art.gnome, the theme (window border) was not added to the theme list, but it's still active. How can I remove it/change.
[05:34] <ubuntu> Gnea: you don't deser it.
[05:34] <Louie`> This wasnt easy
[05:34] <Lilacor> kanzie_: what happens when you mount your drive manually?
[05:34] <Gnea> ubuntu: let me know when you grow up, then i'll help you, but not until.
[05:34] <wols_> Gnea: optimist
[05:34] <novato_br> hi dudes, i'm looking for how to get solve friend's trouble?
[05:35] <ubuntu> Gnea: ok call me,when you know what you are talking.
[05:35] <voici> VERY optimistic to run skype WITHOUT GUI :)
[05:35] <Perdente> yeah, and you better know what you are talking or he'll get you
[05:35] <fugitivo> don't run skype
[05:35] <wols_> voici: entierly doable. just outside the knowledge of someone like ubuntu
[05:35] <Lilacor> !anyone
[05:35] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[05:35] <fugitivo> it's obscure :)
[05:35] <Gnea> niuq: just edit /etc/apt/sources.list and remove the duplicate line
[05:35] <fugitivo> run gizmo
[05:36] <kanzie_> Lilacor: nothing, it does not complain or anything. I might do something wrong though, just typing mount /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1 where the media-sdb1 is a unounted empty dir
[05:36] <novato_br> he has one integrated sound card VIA 8237 and he can't get listen any sounds, but the mic is recording the  sound
[05:36] <voici> wols_: outside of my knowledge too, how would i do it?
[05:36] <novato_br> what's going on?
[05:36] <kanzie_> Lilacor: then when trying to access it I get bash: cd: sdb1: Permission denied
[05:36] <Lilacor> kanzie_: don't you mean ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1?
[05:36] <fugitivo> novato_br: did you check the volume controls?
[05:36] <novato_br> yep, fugitivo
[05:36] <wols_> voici: something that can access remote X and also transmit sound. freenx should be able to do it
[05:36] <bronze---> When I drag and dropped a theme from art.gnome, the theme (window border) was not added to the theme list, but it's still active. How can I remove it/change.
[05:36] <novato_br> all volume controls were checked
[05:37] <novato_br> it's right
[05:37] <Tom47> !sound | novato_br perhaps you could check through this stuff
[05:37] <ubotu> novato_br perhaps you could check through this stuff: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[05:37] <voici> wols: but how would I use a skype on a remote X without a GUI?
[05:37] <wols_> virdiq: just like any other X program? X was designed to be xecuted rmeotely
[05:38] <novato_br> Tom47,  the alsa is selected
[05:38] <Gnea> kanzie_: you need to be root in order to mount it.
[05:38] <TurtleBoots> hi folks
[05:38] <penguin42> wols_: But audio stuff remotely is much more magic
[05:38] <TurtleBoots> anyone know how to run .exe files under ubuntu?
[05:38] <wols_> kanzie_: and without setting umask, you also need to be root to access it when it's mounted
[05:38] <novato_br> install the wine, TurtleBoots
[05:38] <Lilacor> TurtleBoots: depends on what it is
[05:38] <Gnea> !wine | TurtleBoots
[05:38] <ubotu> TurtleBoots: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[05:38] <TurtleBoots> or is it even possible?
[05:39] <wols_> penguin42: I didn't say it would work ewll :)
[05:39] <novato_br> yep, TurtleBoots
[05:39] <wols_> penguin42: but there are remote access solutions for sound
[05:39] <TurtleBoots> thanks you guys!! :-D
[05:39] <novato_br> but aren't softwares that will run on it
[05:39] <penguin42> wols_: Yeh - lots of remote access solutions; I'm not sure if anything actually supports them or if they actually work
[05:39] <cjae> hey how do I do scrolling marqee??? like in windows??
[05:39] <voici> is there a nice mp3-player for console?
[05:39] <cjae> xfce
[05:39] <bw_hb> !wine
[05:39] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[05:40] <kanzie_> Lilacor: Ok, it says that I need to mount it with force, so Im gonna do that...
[05:40] <Gnea> voici: mpg321
[05:40] <voici> tnx
[05:40] <Lilacor> kanzie_: I wouldn't do that if I were you.
[05:40] <niuq> Gnea: # its for putting comments right?
[05:40] <kanzie_> wols_: Yeah thats right, I will set the umask in fstab as soon as I manage to mount it manually
[05:40] <kanzie_> Lilacor: no?
[05:40] <Gnea> niuq: yes
[05:40] <kanzie_> Lilacor: is it more safe to boot twice into windows?
[05:40] <Lilacor> kanzie_: why do you have two logins? get rid of one please
[05:41] <niuq> Gnea: ok, i hope nothing crashes
[05:41] <Lilacor> kanzie_: because windows can fix it...I hosed part of my NTFS volume doing what you're about to do
[05:41] <kazim59> wols_: I made the ISO, the mounting command please
[05:41] <non_geek> Hi experts, all
[05:41] <bronze---> What's necessary to change active sound driver? Reboot? Restart X? Woot?
[05:41] <Gnea> niuq: should be fine- just run apt-get update
[05:41] <kanzie_> Lilacor: Shit, yeah that _can not_ happen here! =)
[05:41] <Lilacor> !language
[05:41] <niuq> Gnea: ok,  i will

[05:42] <nuked_omen> kazim59: mount -o loop file.iso
[05:42] <Gnea> nuked_omen: you need a target for that to work

[05:42] <kazim59> nuked_omen: mount -o loop file.iso (no target required?)
[05:42] <nuked_omen> Gnea: yeah, i thought he just wanted the options
[05:43] <nuked_omen> kazim59: mount -o loop filel.iso /media/targer
[05:43] <xampik> what is defauld name of font in Ubuntu PLEASE ? (fonts:/// there) ?
[05:43] <nuked_omen> kazim59: don't be stupid and use file.iso as your file and /media/targer as your target
[05:43] <kazim59> nuked_omen: thanks
[05:43] <nuked_omen> cool
[05:43] <kanzie_> wols_: why is the loopback relevant for me?
[05:43] <uberushaximus> !ttf-ubuntu-title xampik
[05:44] <Lilacor> kanzie_: it was a mistake
[05:44] <uberushaximus> !ttf-ubuntu-title | xampik
[05:44] <wols_> sorry. your nick begins with "ka" just like kazim59's
[05:44] <kazim59> nuked_omen: then how do I play it using mplayer?
[05:44] <nuked_omen> kazim59: play what?
[05:44] <uberushaximus> well anyway, it's ttf-ubuntu-title
[05:44] <Lilacor> kanzie_: boot into windows and fix the volume
[05:44] <Lilacor> kanzie_: then mount using ntfs-3g
[05:44] <kazim59> nuked_omen: the ISO is a dvd ....
[05:44] <kazim59> nuked_omen: a movie dvd....
[05:44] <Lilacor> kazim59: use VLC to open it and play it then
[05:45] <nuked_omen> kazim59: what i would do is cd to the movies directory and issue mplayer file.vob
[05:45] <Gnea> kazim59: pirated?
[05:45] <niuq> Gnea: ok thx, i think everything it's alright
[05:45] <Lilacor> kazim59: you should have no issues so long as you have the correct codecs.
[05:45] <Gnea> niuq: :)
[05:45] <nuked_omen> kazim59: i think vlc can handle dvds better, but i still prefer mplayer
 where is ? in folder fonts:/// ?
[05:45] <nuked_omen> Gnea: what is a dvd being pirated got to do with playing the movies in it?
[05:45] <uberushaximus> xampik, no you have to install it
[05:46] <cjae> hey how do I do scrolling marqee??? like in windows??
[05:46] <nuked_omen> kazim59: where are you from?
[05:46] <Gnea> nuked_omen: not supported here
[05:46] <kanzie_> Lilacor: should it be enough just booting or should I manually do chkdsk there?
[05:46] <cjae> xfce
[05:46] <uberushaximus> xampik, use 'sudo apt-get install ttf-ubuntu-title'
[05:46] <Perdente> hey, is there a chat room that deals with programming in linux?  I went to #ubuntu+1, but nobody is talking in there
[05:46] <Bassetts> can i give programs a priority to start up?
[05:46] <nuked_omen> Perdente: try #c #perl #python
[05:46] <Perdente> awsome! you rock!
[05:46] <Lilacor> kanzie_: do EXACTLY what it tells you to do, boot, chkdsk /f, reboot, chkdsk /f again and then attempt to mount the volume
[05:46] <habeeb> Hello. I have a functional Gentoo install right now ( 3 partitions. / , root and swap), what do I have to do to replace it with Ubuntu?
[05:46] <kazim59> Gnea: not pirated.... I want to copy the dvd to my desktop pc where I can play it... (the desktop pc's dvdrom is faulty)
[05:47] <wols_> habeeb: reinstall?
[05:47] <habeeb> wols_: yes, but how will I manage the partitions of Gentoo?
[05:47] <habeeb> I mean they are three...

[05:47] <kazim59> Gnea: I've ubuntu on both machines... and I wish to play it on desktop... there's the problem
[05:47] <kazim59> nuked_omen: Delhi
[05:47] <wols_> habeeb: if you want to keep gentto: resize them to make some room. if not. simply delete them
[05:47] <uberushaximus> xampik, well you could put it in an image...
[05:48] <non_geek> Perdente:  .. also try  #C++
[05:48] <kanzie_> Lilacor: will do! see you on the other side of chkdsk ;-)
[05:48] <habeeb> wols_: I see...
[05:48] <Gnea> kazim59: ah ok, have you tried: mplayer file.iso ?
[05:48] <aoupi> hi, can I run ruby on lighttpd, without ruby on rails
[05:48] <habeeb> wols_: Okay.. Gutsy testing, hooray!
 i instaled ttf-ubuntu-title and what next ?
[05:48] <nuked_omen> kazim59: can you drag the files from the file manager and drop them to your hard drive?
[05:48] <nuked_omen> mplayer file.iso ??????????

[05:50] <nuked_omen> sn0: i know that already, someone else was telling someone to use mplayer iso
[05:50] <Gnea> sn0: in some cases, if the program understands how to read an iso file as a block device, it will work
[05:50] <sn0> nuked_omen apologies :)
[05:50] <cjae> hey how do I do scrolling marqee??? like in windows??

[05:52] <sn0> niuq that looks pretty bad for an error, can i ask how you installed deluge ? as its not in the ubuntu repositories
[05:52] <astomper> I have a modem with the ip 192.168.0.1 and a router with 192.168.1.1, Is that too close to being the same thing?

[05:52] <Trixsey> How do I get Eclipse for instance, without the RECOMMENDED packages? (gcj in this case)?
[05:52] <kazim59> Gnea: mplayer file.iso works!
[05:52] <Trixsey> apt-get install eclipse --someparam?
[05:53] <mroc> thanks Gnea
[05:53] <cjae> Gnea, the text wrap around screen saver
[05:53] <sn0> Trixsey apt-get install will not install recommended packages by default, aptitude install will however
[05:53] <nuked_omen> kazim59: wtf?
[05:53] <niuq> sn0: mmm i think i just download it a package, from deluge's site or something, it worked well for a while, but suddenly it crashed
[05:53] <Gnea> astomper: only if they share the same subnet mask
[05:53] <Trixsey> sn0, but it does :(
[05:53] <nathalie> I am quite totally screwed up.
[05:53] <mc44> nuked_omen: why not? works with vlc too
[05:53] <Trixsey> Where can I find more information about the package "eclipse" for Feisty?
[05:53] <sn0> niuq was it a .deb file ?
[05:53] <niuq> sn0: not sure if it is in the repositories
[05:54] <kazim59> nuked_omen: I don't know.. I mean.... these developers are genius.. lol
[05:54] <sn0> Trixsey see http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/devel/eclipse
[05:54] <niuq> sn0: yes it was a .deb
[05:54] <sn0> niuq i dont believe it is, search shows nothing anyways
[05:54] <nuked_omen> mc44: i just thought mplayer wasn't that smart
[05:54] <Gnea> heh
[05:54] <niuq> sn0: deluge-torrent_0.5.0-0~getdeb1_i386.deb
[05:54] <sn0> niuq ok so because you installed a deb, this is no problem :-) so sudo aptitude purge deluge, then reinstall the deb file as before
[05:54] <niuq> sn0: there it is
[05:54] <Gnea> nuked_omen: you don't really know until you try ;)
[05:54] <Trixsey> it recommends GCJ, ok
[05:55] <niuq> sn0: ok ok i will
[05:55] <Trixsey> sn0, then why does it include GCJ when I type "sudo apt-get install eclipse"?

[05:55] <ianian> anyone know what the plugins sub-directory under the Mozilla installation directory is for 7.04?
[05:56] <astomper> Gnea, ok thx
[05:56] <Trixsey> gcj4.1-base
[05:56] <Trixsey> etc
[05:56] <Trixsey> lots of packages
[05:56] <robdeman> hey how can I tell which audio hardware my machine has? I know its nVida onboard stuff...
[05:56] <sn0> Trixsey im not sure, have you tried in synaptic? and check that gcj is not enabled/ticket
[05:56] <kazim59> nuked_omen: where are you???
[05:56] <sn0> ticked*
[05:56] <robdeman> im recompiling ALSA and neet to tell ALSA which driver it should build...
[05:56] <Trixsey> sn0, yes.. it wants gcj then as well
[05:56] <niuq> sn0: ok i just tried and appears a message Error: a later version is already installed
[05:56] <kazim59> Gnea: there is no sound... mplayer file.iso gives no sound
[05:56] <Azul> kazim59: i'm here
[05:56] <habeeb> !gutsy > habeeb
[05:56] <Trixsey> sn0, although it specifically says on that site, that it is a recommended package
[05:56] <niuq> sn0: when i was trying to install the .deb package
[05:57] <Trixsey> sn0, is there no --ignore-recommends or something?
[05:57] <rem_> nathalie start a terminal (goto Applications, Accessories, Terminal) then type in /usr/bin/kino this will start kino, and keeps the terminal open in the background, you should be able to see in the terminal what happens when it freezes ..paste it here, or in http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (and paste the link here..) to get help ..
[05:57] <ianian> anyone know what the plugins sub-directory under the Mozilla installation directory is for 7.04?
[05:57] <sn0> Trixsey indeed, that is strange - hopefully someone more enlightened is awake :)
[05:57] <Gnea> kazim59: what about with vlc or totem instead of mplayer?
[05:57] <kazim59> Azul: there's no sound when I did mplayer file.iso
[05:57] <kazim59> Gnea: lemme try
[05:57] <Azul> kazim59: there can be many causes for that
[05:58] <Azul> kazim59: do you get sound off of other players?
[05:58] <ianian> anyone know what the plugins sub-directory under the Mozilla installation directory is for 7.04?
[05:58] <Bassetts> my azureus keeps crashing and i have no idea why
[05:58] <Trixsey> sn0, I've had this problem before too.. but I gave up at some point.. have been trying for 4-5 hours to get it working without gcj lol
[05:58] <Azul> Bassetts: mine does too
[05:58] <kazim59> Azul: oh yes I do.. and my DVD plays perfect...
[05:58] <Trixsey> Azureus is crashing because it's not supported by GCJ
[05:58] <Azul> Bassetts: i think 7.04 and java don't get along
[05:58] <kazim59> Azul: but I don't want to watch it on a notebook :)
[05:58] <Trixsey> Yet the Ubuntu people forces GCJ with Azureus
[05:58] <Bassetts> Azul, it worked yesterday
[05:59] <marcel__> hi, anyone know how to edit the kde lost & found entries?
[05:59] <bronze---> Totem movie player crashes every time I try to open a .m3u
[05:59] <Trixsey> Download the Azureus pre-compiled binaries
[05:59] <Trixsey> they are like 10 times more stable
[05:59] <Frogzoo> azureus on feisty is fine with sun's java
[05:59] <Azul> Bassetts: mine loads and the main windows shows for about half a second then it just quits itself
[05:59] <Rictoo> How do I update a specific application with apt-get?
[05:59] <Trixsey> Frogzoo, yeah but it comes with GCJ if you install it via apt/aptitude
[05:59] <Bassetts> same Azul
[05:59] <Azul> kazim59: try and look for an audio error in mplayer's output
[05:59] <HOT> sudo apt-get install specificapplication
[06:00] <Azul> Bassetts: i also tried to use a java applet in firefox and the whole thing crashes
[06:00] <Rictoo> HOT: really? -\
[06:00] <kazim59> Azul: No audio stream found -> no sound
[06:00] <niuq> sn0: mmm i am downloading the package with apt-get, i hope it works
[06:00] <kazim59> Azul: it finds no stream actually...
[06:01] <HOT> yes ,it will check what version you are on, if it detects an update it will ask if you want it
[06:01] <Azul> kazim59: the stream might not be supported by mplayer
[06:01] <niuq> sn0: still doesn't starts
[06:01] <Azul> kazim59: did you download the codecs for mplayer?
[06:01] <kazim59> Azul: there must be some way to make make this iso behave like a dvd .. .and then ask mplayer to play the dvd
[06:01] <Azul> kazim59: never tried it
[06:01] <kazim59> Azul: well... the DVD is playing perfectly.. so I must have the codecs... right?
[06:01] <mc44> !iso | kazim59
[06:01] <ubotu> kazim59: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[06:02] <kazim59> ok... dinner time!
[06:02] <pH> hi, i need help to makes the bluetooth work on my laptop
[06:02] <Tom47> nathalie: rem _ answred while you were absent ....  nathalie start a terminal (goto Applications, Accessories, Terminal) then type in /usr/bin/kino this will start kino, and keeps the terminal open in the background, you should be able to see in the terminal what happens when it freezes ..paste it here, or in http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (and paste the link here..) to get help ..
[06:03] <Azul> kazim59: i'm not really sure, google?
[06:03] <niuq> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25982/ i am having that problem with deluge!
[06:03] <nathalie> Tom47: Thank you. I'll try this. Sorry, I have to learn even how to irc... :-(
[06:03] <pH> how can i detect my integrated bluetooth card ?
[06:04] <sn0> niuq if you already had a version installed, it would need to be purged removed to remove settings
[06:04] <sn0> so reinstalling without doing that may make no difference unfortunately
[06:04] <bronze---> Totem movie player crashes every time I try to open a .m3u. What can I do?P
[06:04] <niuq> sn0: yeah i actually did it, then i used sudo apt-get install deluge-torrent, and worked, but im still unable to start the program
[06:05] <Frogzoo> bronze---: use vlc?
[06:05] <spikeb> open it with something else bronze---, maybe rhythmbox
[06:05] <sn0> Trixsey can i ask whyy you dont want gcj?
[06:05] <egoless> Hi, how can I make flash in Firefox use russian symbols?
[06:05] <sn0> niuq im sorry i dont know what else to try, maybe check the deluge website/forum and ubuntuforums for more info
[06:05] <sivik> will ISO Master run iso's?
[06:06] <Trixsey> sn0, Azureus isn't fully compatible with GCJ, which is why it crashes for so many people (including me)
[06:06] <wpgmb> does Edubuntu always use Lilo? I don't remember seeing an option for Grub.
[06:06] <niuq> sn0: ok thx man
[06:06] <spikeb> azureus in universe is generally a bad package.
[06:06] <nathalie> (kino:28565): Gnome-CRITICAL **: gnome_program_get_app_id: assertion `program != NULL' failed
[06:06] <Trixsey> sn0, I've also experienced various compatibility issues, as GCJ is not 100% compatible with Java...
[06:06] <Trixsey> sn0, aside from Azureus that is
[06:07] <nathalie> It plays about one frame pro sec, then freezes and needs to be killed.
[06:07] <Frogzoo> wpgmb: don't use edubuntu myself, but I'd assume it uses grub as default
[06:07] <sn0> Trixsey do you have java-gcj-compat installed ?
[06:07] <wpgmb> Frogzoo: nope - it gave me Lilo
[06:07] <sn0> maybe try just apt-get remove java-gcj-compat
[06:07] <Azul> it's not azureus that's bad, it's java
[06:07] <Tom47> wpgmb has always used grub here .... you may get better assist in #edubuntu
[06:07] <robdeman> folks: cat /proc/asound/cards  gives "cat: /proc/asound/cards: No such file or directory" ... what is asound.. maybe I removed it?
[06:07] <Frogzoo> wpgmb: yes, if you're doing raid or lvm or things
[06:08] <wpgmb> Frogzoo: Must be it - used LVM
[06:08] <Trixsey> sn0, I had when I had the compatibility issues yes.. now I removed GCJ for good
[06:08] <wpgmb> Frogzoo: thanks

[06:19] <sn0> :-) indeed
[06:19] <lusepuster> Has anyone else experienced or heard about sound problems occuring after the latest kernel update on a lenovoo 3000 series? It stopped turning off internal speakers when earphones plugged in.

[06:23] <Bonjour> about 2.something gigs
[06:23] <Gnea> Bonjour: try feh
[06:24] <lusepuster> bone43: yep I could, just don't really have the time for it by now; maybe I'll take a look at it when exam's over...
[06:24] <Heme> just tried to install ubuntu 7.04 (alternative version) and it stuck on 85% at some "installed brltty" part. after like 20mins of that I booted. should I've waited some more or is there just some problem with the installation?
[06:25] <penguin42> Heme: Hmm that's an interesting place to fail - what have you got plugged into your machine?
[06:25] <bone43> lusepuster: good luck!
[06:25] <Heme> nothing special, mouse, keyboard, monitor and stuff :P
[06:25] <Gnea> penguin42: disconnect all of the 'stuff'
[06:25] <mykil> omg I've never seen so many people in a channel
[06:25] <Gnea> oops
[06:25] <ceil420> how can you tell if a process is still running if you know it's PID number?
[06:25] <Gnea> Heme: disconnect all of the 'stuff'
[06:25] <Gnea> penguin42: sorry :)
[06:26] <penguin42> Heme: Normal mouse/keyboard - not one that does anything funky?  Anything odd about the machine?
[06:26] <Heme> only thing that is a bit 'out of place' is my modem that I've plugged in with usb
[06:26] <ant-> ceil420: ps -e
[06:26] <f1nley> ceil420: ps aux | grep PIDNUMBER
[06:26] <Heme> unplugged everything else 'stuff' already
[06:26] <penguin42> Heme: Pull the modem
[06:26] <Gnea> Heme: only things to have connected are: ac adapter, keyboard, mouse, speakers, internet
[06:26] <ceil420> :o
[06:26] <ceil420> thanks
[06:26] <cjae> hey how do I do scrolling marqee??? like in windows??
[06:26] <Gnea> Heme: disconnect the modem and try again
[06:26] <premier_> Hi, when my computer returns from suspend it won't display the screen, just black... is this fglrx related?
[06:27] <Gnea> cjae: stop using so many question marks.
[06:27] <bronze---> When I try to stream an internet radio (execute listen.m3u), totem crashes and VLC can't load it. I can't stream!!
[06:27] <penguin42> Heme: I think *brltty* would live on a serial port; so the modem is the most likely thing to confuse it
[06:27] <Heme> oki, I'll try that in a few hours when I got the chance, thanks for help

[06:33] <bronze---> can you give me another link to test?
[06:33] <Gnea> says it's connected but never passes any data
[06:33] <novato_br> my friend have a trouble with playback sound
[06:33] <Johto> bronze---: try /wii somenick
[06:33] <Gnea> bronze---: you should install streamtuner and use that
[06:33] <bronze---> /ww johto
[06:33] <nexous> Hi, does nano allow html hex codes (#191919) in syntax highlighting in the file .nanorc?

[06:34] <jeayese> beryl works
[06:34] <bronze---> yeah gaim
[06:34] <shawoho> are there problems with ubuntu repos?
[06:34] <Gnea> gaim is not an standard irc client :)
[06:34] <Johto> bronze---: meh..install xchat (xchat-Gnome client)
[06:34] <Gnea> irssi+screen
[06:35] <Gnea> the only decent irc client
[06:35] <Johto> gaim is IM client, not IRC
[06:35] <novato_br> the pc of him is playing the songs, but he is not hearing it
[06:35] <mage> irssi is really lazy with reconnecting :*
[06:35] <bronze---> mirc is decent!
[06:35] <lo4fer> Hi folks. Wifi radar can see the my wireless network so I know the card is at least partly functional, but how do I actually configure the connection? In network tools there's only loopback, eth0, and eth1
[06:35] <Gnea> Johto: gaim supports the IRC protocol.
[06:35] <novato_br> he got the mixer, and it's all ok
[06:35] <Johto> Gnea: yah, i have ssh+screen+irssi combo on my server, this ubuntu desktop i use xchat
[06:35] <mage> lo4fer: I've been using a "network-admin" command
[06:35] <Nutubuntu> I've been having trouble burning an iso image. The image file is about 695MB, and it looks like my burner thinks my CDs (which are marked 700MB) will only hold 650. How do I correct this? I've pastebinned the log at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25994/ -- see lines 53-54 and 76

[06:37] <minerale> how much swap should I have on a server that has 512mb/ram
[06:37] <Johto> Gnea: well, yeah, but i like to use graphical clients too  :)
[06:37] <Nutubuntu> minerale,  rule of thumb is 1.5X RAM, IIRC
[06:37] <bronze---> Anyone know of a m3u/pls file I can download to test streaming
[06:37] <Johto> minerale: consider 1-1% times the RAM
[06:37] <jeayese> hey I need some help.. I am about to give up intirly on ubuntu but I dont want to, All i want to do is run Half-life 2 on ubuntu.. is that to much to ask?

[06:38] <coldsteal> i need a way to check the version of a package something with lees output than apt-cache show
[06:38] <Gnea> !wacom | JP
[06:38] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wacom - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:38] <Gnea> oops
[06:38] <Gnea> grrr
[06:38] <Megaqwerty> jeayese: I don't know very much about that issue, but give me the output of glxinfo | grep direct
[06:39] <jeayese> ok
[06:39] <cables> How can I mount something so that it is owned by a user, not root?
[06:39] <bronze---> Gnea: Didn't see your tip until now.
[06:39] <jeayese> I get: Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":1.0".
[06:39] <jeayese> direct rendering: No
[06:39] <etm1> how i can mount lvm2 partition on ubuntu livecd (feisty)?
[06:39] <JP> Gnea, I already installed sudo apt-get install wacom-tools
[06:39] <JP> Gnea, oh, wacom directory (hits self)
[06:39] <Gnea> JP: it's going to be /dev/input/something
[06:39] <nitro4ce> how do i start the AdvanceMame GUI?
[06:39] <Megaqwerty> jeayese: Well, then GLX isn't enabled
[06:39] <jeayese> how do i fix that then?
[06:40] <Megaqwerty> jeayese: What Graphics Card do you have?
[06:40] <roland> how do i save wmaker desktop with my applets
[06:40] <jeayese> how do I enable GLX
[06:40] <penguin42> etm1: try doing a pvdisplay and see if it finds any of it
[06:40] <mage> etm1: might need to install lvm
[06:40] <jeayese> ATI Radeon 9600
[06:40] <Icehawk78> Is there a method of upgrading with distribution of Ubuntu is installed?
[06:40] <Megaqwerty> jeayese: okay, I use nVidia so hold on a minute while I figure it out.
[06:40] <cables> !upgrade | Icehawk78
[06:40] <ubotu> Icehawk78: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[06:40] <Johto> Icehawk78: what do you mean?
[06:40] <jeayese> ok
[06:40] <Nutubuntu> JP, there's a how-to at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=25151
[06:40] <jeayese> thanks a million for helping
[06:41] <JP> Nutubuntu, i am there, but i am too noob to follow it
[06:41] <Megaqwerty> jeayese: you're welcome
[06:41] <nitro4ce> how do i start the AdvanceMame GUI?
[06:41] <Nutubuntu> JP, at which point do you get lost?
[06:41] <JP> Nutubuntu, got to the edit part, found the wacom file, and i have ... an icon I can't access, i'm guessing i need to edit within shell ?
[06:41] <Johto> ah, this ubuntu is soo much easier than 8 yaers ago when i first started using linux..it was slackware 3.* something :)
[06:41] <Icehawk78> Johto - the link sent shows how to, but I was looking into going from Edgy Eft to Feisty Fawn.
[06:42] <Megaqwerty> jeayese: okay, it should be really simple. Open up a terminal.
[06:42] <JP> Nutubuntu,  part 3
[06:42] <jeayese> yup
[06:42] <jeayese> done
[06:42] <Megaqwerty> jeayese: type sudo restriced-manager
[06:42] <cables> !gksudo | Megaqwerty, jeayese
[06:42] <ubotu> Megaqwerty, jeayese: 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
[06:42] <Johto> Icehawk78: yes, you nromally do distribution upgrade in debian like distros using "apt-get dist-upgrade" but you should do it "the ubuntu way" ..read that tutorial to be sure :)
[06:43] <Nutubuntu> JP, you're saying you don't have the rights to edit the file -- am I understanding you properly?
[06:43] <Megaqwerty> cables: sudo has always worked for me if running from a terminal.
[06:43] <Megaqwerty> cables: oh
[06:43] <jeayese> uh
[06:43] <jeayese> sudo: restriced-manager: command not found
[06:43] <bronze---> Gnea: The problem was obviously the broken lytte.m3u file. I read on the internet that the radio has server issues.
[06:43] <Megaqwerty> jeayese: I should have asked what version of Ubuntu you are running :-\
[06:43] <JP> Nutubuntu, nope, i navigated to /dev/input and found file called wacom
[06:43] <mage> jeayese: spelling ;)
[06:43] <mage> kyle@kyle-laptop:~$ sudo restricted-manager
[06:43] <jeayese> fiesty something
[06:44] <etm1> penguin42: mage: thanks now i got it :)
[06:44] <JP> Nutubuntu, but can't edit it, maybe i need to download a gui text editor
[06:44] <heroin> jeayese: still here
[06:44] <ianian> does any1 know how to set permissions so i can delete a file pks??
[06:44] <gordonjcp> ianian: it needs to be writable
[06:44] <jeayese> ok
[06:44] <Megaqwerty> jeayese: gksudo restricted-manager
[06:44] <ianian> yah
[06:44] <jeayese> yeah
[06:44] <mage> the _dir_ needs to be writable ;)
[06:44] <jeayese> it poped up
[06:44] <Nutubuntu> JP, the third step is talking about editing xorg.conf
[06:44] <ianian> how do i do that?
[06:44] <JP> Nutubuntu, aha, i do not have permissions yet
[06:44] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: Did you try savetheWorld 's option?
[06:45] <mage> chmod is the permissions futzing command
[06:45] <ianian> ??
[06:45] <KDDI> hello, i gt a qns
[06:45] <ianian> lol
[06:45] <mage> !chmod
[06:45] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[06:45] <jeayese> Restriceted devices.
[06:45] <Megaqwerty> jeayese: okay now put a check next to the ati driver
[06:45] <JP> Nutubuntu, xorg.conf?
[06:45] <cody_penguin> since i cant remove the recent opened files in totem,i guess i have to uninstall totem and reinstall it again
[06:45] <jeayese> there already is.
[06:45] <shawoho> GPG error of dapper-updates.  I got a BADSIG message

[06:45] <ianian> its simple
[06:45] <KDDI> is only diff with xbuntu is only the desktop environment?
[06:45] <mage> !contact
[06:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about contact - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:45] <Megaqwerty> jeayese: dang...okay pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:45] <PurpZeY_> KDDI: Yes.
[06:45] <jeayese> uh.......
[06:45] <jeayese> ok
[06:46] <Nutubuntu> JP, /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:46] <ianian> its a java installation file in a folder called "1" on my desktop and i need to delete it
[06:46] <KDDI> cos i using wubi to install xubuntu
[06:46] <truescot> can anyone give any pointers on getting a pptp vpn connection to work on ubuntu 7.04? i have checked all over google but none of the things i find seam to help
[06:46] <MikeInSandy> Every program ....Firefox, VLC, Democracy
[06:46] <jeayese> one sec
[06:46] <KDDI> what is the recommend space need to install ubuntu in winxp
[06:47] <shawoho> are there problems with dapper-updates repos? I got GPG error:BADSIG
[06:47] <jeayese> here you go: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25996/
[06:47] <JP> Nutubuntu, aha got it, in there, now, i'll see if i can follow from here! thanks
[06:47] <mage> KDDI: I need 3-4 gigs for stuffs
[06:47] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: Is it still the jre-1.6.0_01 dir?
[06:47] <Nutubuntu> y/w JP
[06:47] <KDDI> so i have to set aside 6gb?
[06:47] <ianian> yeh
[06:47] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: Do this: sudo chown -R ian:ian /home/ian/Desktop/jre-1.6.0_01
[06:47] <ianian> my username is ian
[06:47] <KDDI> ok thx
[06:48] <mage> KDDI: the live cd has 1.9gigs uncompressed. 6gigs is a good amount if you're going to include /home in that calculation
[06:48] <jeayese> did you get it mega?
[06:48] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: Then try deleting the folder and it's contents. The only reason it would then stop you is *if* some process is using a file in there, or you have a browser window open to it
[06:48] <KDDI> oh.. cos i dl both xubuntu and ubuntu
[06:48] <KDDI> i figuring how to install with wubi
[06:48] <Megaqwerty> jeayese: yeah
[06:48] <ianian> no such file directory!
[06:48] <jeayese> ok
[06:48] <PurpZeY_> KDDI: That is unnecessary they are the same
[06:48] <ianian> lol
[06:49] <PurpZeY_> KDDI: Only difference is the window manager which you can download as you wish
[06:49] <ianian> maybie ian with a capital i?
[06:49] <mage> KDDI: if you install xubuntu and want gnome, its apt-get install gnome-desktop.
[06:49] <KDDI> oh.. i wasted their bandwidth
[06:49] <KDDI> apt get?
[06:49] <PurpZeY_> Alternatively, apt get install ubuntu-desktop
[06:49] <KDDI> can i switch anything i wan?
[06:50] <ianian> nop
[06:50] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: So correct the command so it is applied to the correct directory name - I'm just guessing!
[06:50] <KDDI> which is more cool?
[06:50] <cables> KDDI: actually, try "ubuntu-desktop" instead of gnome-desktop.
[06:50] <mage> woopsies
[06:50] <morpheusdreams> good evening, could omeone give me a hand with PHP?
[06:50] <KDDI> erm hw?
[06:50] <cables> KDDI: it's a matter of opinion.
[06:50] <mage> KDDI: since you downloaded both, may as well try both desktop environments
[06:50] <ChiFLiiiii> hi all
[06:50] <Megaqwerty> jeayese: I'm sorry I actually have to leave :( but try the "Instructions for 6.10 (Edgy)" section here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[06:50] <KDDI> cos i seen xcf.. ss very nice
[06:50] <mage> actually I downloaded all three at varying locations :)
[06:50] <PurpZeY_> mage: That's true but now he has two entire file systems.
[06:51] <cables> KDDI: Kubuntu has a slightly more complex UI, but it's more advanced. Gnome is simpler and easier. XFCE is fast and uses less RAM.
[06:51] <Nutubuntu> morpheusdreams,  I think there's a #php chan
[06:51] <twikesh> morpheusdreams: try asking in ##php, this is the Ubuntu support channel
[06:51] <jeayese> awwwwwwwwwww
[06:51] <jeayese> ok
[06:51] <jeayese> thanks anyways
[06:51] <Megaqwerty> jeayese: good luck
[06:51] <ChiFLiiiii> Im new to ubuntu and im wondering if there is any good good irc client
[06:51] <mage> PurpZeY_: ah, so he installed both to his hd?
[06:51] <ianian> ok
[06:51] <morpheusdreams> twikesh, Nutubuntu thanks and apologises :)
[06:51] <ianian> lol
[06:51] <cables> KDDI: I mean KDE, not Kubuntu. Kubuntu uses KDE, Ubuntu uses GNOME, and Xubuntu uses XFCE>
[06:51] <cables> .
[06:51] <ianian> done
[06:51] <jason357> Is there a PCMCIA 801.11G wifi card that Ubuntu would detect, setup, and support WPA during install?
[06:51] <KDDI> hmmm. i wan a switch like to try txt base
[06:51] <IntuitiveNipple> Finally! :)
[06:51] <KDDI> oh
[06:51] <cables> ChiFLiiiii: try XChat, it's the best.
[06:51] <PurpZeY_> mage: not yet, but I believe he said he downloaded both images, which means he may get hung-up and install both completely.
[06:51] <k1gwb> I'm having trouble installing Ubuntu to my laptop from a USB flash drive (cdrom drive broken)
[06:51] <ianian> thanks nipple lol
[06:52] <jason357> I have had so much trouble getting wifi to work, I am ready to just buy a new one that "just works"
[06:52] <IntuitiveNipple> Grrr  hehehe
[06:52] <ianian> lol
[06:52] <namelesss> bonjour
[06:52] <IntuitiveNipple> Gods save is from the little angels hehehe
[06:52] <namelesss> j'ai un soucis
[06:52] <ChiFLiiiii> cables: xchat supports multi servers ?
[06:52] <namelesss> je viens de tout formater
[06:52] <Nutubuntu> ChiFLiiiii,  sure
[06:52] <ChiFLiiiii> and ident port
[06:52] <ChiFLiiiii> ?
[06:52] <namelesss> j'etais sous edgy
[06:52] <cables> ChiFLiiiii: pretty much any IRC client does.
[06:52] <twikesh> !fr | namelesss
[06:52] <ubotu> namelesss: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[06:52] <jeayese> brb
[06:52] <ianian> you got any tips on how i can install java in a simple way?
[06:52] <namelesss> et l je viens de passer sous feisty
[06:52] <ianian> lol
[06:52] <cables> ChiFLiiiii: just try it, you'll like it.
[06:52] <mage> k1gwb: whats the problem?
[06:53] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian... What version of ubuntu? Feisty?
[06:53] <namelesss> mais avant j'tais en 1600*kkchose maintenant le choix s'arr^ete en 1280
[06:53] <cables> ianian: open a terminal and type this: < sudo aptitude install sun-java6-plugin > and you're done.
[06:53] <namelesss> ah sure
[06:53] <namelesss> sorry
[06:53] <ianian> newest 7.04
[06:53] <heroin> i have an AMD k6 300mhz processor which architech is that i386?
[06:53] <ianian> think its called fiesty
[06:53] <Nutubuntu> heroin,  i386
[06:53] <mage> ack
[06:53] <k1gwb> mage: well the laptop isn't booting off the thumb drive... I guess I should try it on my desktop to isolate the problem though
[06:53] <KDDI> so there is kde gnome xfce
[06:53] <cables> ianian: did you get my message with the command to install?
[06:53] <KDDI> winxp consider kde?
[06:53] <ianian> yh
[06:54] <ianian> ill try that
[06:54] <Nutubuntu> I've been having trouble burning an iso image. The image file is about 695MB, and it looks like my burner thinks my CDs (which are marked 700MB) will only hold 650. How do I correct this? I've pastebinned the log at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25994/ -- see lines 53-54 and 76
[06:54] <ianian> were goin lol
[06:54] <cables> KDDI: A common misconception is that KDE is the most windows-like. However, all of them are VERY customizable.
[06:54] <mage> k1gwb: so the laptop actually has that feature?
[06:54] <cables> What are the right arguments for mount so that any user can read/write to the mounted folder?
[06:54] <mage> also, am I missing field day?
[06:54] <ianian> tks cables
[06:54] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: Feisty... yes. Do 'sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin'
[06:54] <KDDI> hmmm ic
[06:54] <ianian> yup
[06:54] <ianian> fnx
[06:55] <cables> IntuitiveNipple: APT handles dependencies, no need for the jre bit.
[06:55] <KDDI> can i ask what is the diff between unix and linux?
[06:55] <KDDI> =x
[06:55] <cables> KDDI: Linux is basically a free clone of Unix
[06:55] <PurpZeY_> KDDI: Linux is based on unix.
[06:55] <gnomefreak> -plugin grabbs -jre -bin and a few other things
[06:55] <IntuitiveNipple> cables: I'm trying to ensure ian understands most of what is happening, rather than hiding dependencies
[06:55] <k1gwb> mage: one of the boot order choices is "removable devices"
[06:55] <gnomefreak> IntuitiveNipple: it doesnt hide them
[06:56] <ChiFLiiiii> Another question about ubuntu. I dont know how to check if my SLI is activated i posted on forums but i never got a answer
[06:56] <cables> IntuitiveNipple: i think apt-get makes it fairly obvious what it's downloading when it asks you if you want to install additional dependencies
[06:56] <JP> Nutubuntu, how do i save this file with permissions?
[06:56] <_raphael_> is it possible to run windows vista in xen in ubuntu?
[06:56] <KDDI> so many helpers here, cool community
[06:56] <IntuitiveNipple> gnomefreak: It does in the sense that if you give the use a command that relies on dependencies they may not appreciate all the packages they are installing
[06:57] <IntuitiveNipple> cables: The way Ian's been going so far today I'd rely on being explicit :D
[06:57] <Nutubuntu> JP, sorry - I don't understand what you're asking. Were you able to read but not write xorg.conf? (I'm guessing ...)
[06:57] <gnomefreak> IntuitiveNipple: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin will show EVERYTHING it needs to install
[06:57] <cables> IntuitiveNipple: ah, ok.
[06:57] <JP> Nutubuntu, I can read it, and edit it, but cannot save it due to permissions
[06:57] <ianian> ummm
[06:57] <IntuitiveNipple> gnomefreak: Let's not split hairs, eh? I know full well but I'm trying to ensure Ian understands explicitly
[06:58] <Nutubuntu> JP, which editor are you using?
[06:58] <Carb0n> JP, where's the location of the said file?
[06:58] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: How you getting on?
[06:58] <ianian> it came up with a package info thingy...do i just coles that coz i carnt do nefing ith it
[06:58] <PurpZeY_> Carb0n: xorg.conf
[06:58] <JP> Nutubuntu, gedit

[07:00] <jleino> Hello. I have an autofs problem. After accessing a file behind automounted directory, gnome does not let it umount - ever. I think could be a Gnome problem because if I do it in command line everything works ok.
[07:00] <PurpZeY_> jeayese: Is Half-Life 2 linux friendly?
[07:00] <ianian> hehe
[07:00] <jeayese> haha for me

[07:01] <Nutubuntu> cables, you were asking about mount and umask?
[07:01] <rustalot> cat vmlinuz > /dev/audio to hear the voice of God....
[07:01] <ianian> mmm
[07:01] <PurpZeY_> jeayese: Let's be a little more clear, are you running it in wine, or is it designed to run in a linux enviornment?
[07:01] <Carb0n> rustalot: :D
[07:01] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: You may need to change the default java JRE your system uses too, if you want 1.6 to be the default
[07:01] <ianian> still sayin i need to install java runtime environment on websites
[07:01] <jeayese> Wine
[07:01] <cables> Nutubuntu: I'd like to mount a virtualbox shared folder so that it can be read/written to by everyone using the system.
[07:01] <PurpZeY_> jeayese: Is it a wine supported application?
[07:01] <cables> ianian: did you restart Firefox?
[07:01] <ianian> yup
[07:02] <jeayese> the wine website says it is
[07:02] <ianian> just opened a new 1
[07:02] <jeayese> people got it to run perfectly fne
[07:02] <Nutubuntu> cables,  see http://www.acm.uiuc.edu/workshops/cool_unix/umask.html -- and the caution about umask=000
[07:02] <SoftIce> hi, doesn't ubuntu have screenlets in its package db?
[07:02] <PurpZeY_> jeayese: Have you tried looking at Wine Forums or asking people in #wine?
[07:02] <SoftIce> if not, what is the most up to date stable source to add?
[07:02] <jeayese> its just direct rendering isnt working
[07:02] <jeayese> and yes i have gone to forums
[07:02] <jeayese> and read it all for 10 hours stright
[07:02] <engud> Helo how do I open a file that i only can open with root?
[07:03] <cables> Nutubuntu: thank you
[07:03] <PurpZeY_> jeayese: are you running beryl?
[07:03] <jeayese> yes
[07:03] <PurpZeY_> jeayese: Have you tried turning off beryl and then runnin the game?
[07:03] <SoftIce> engud: open it with root :)
[07:03] <jeayese> no
[07:03] <jeayese> would that even help?
[07:03] <engud> How do i do that?
[07:03] <PurpZeY_> jeayese: I'd recommend that
[07:03] <Nutubuntu> cables, IIRC virtualbox is a VMWare-like program ... wasn't there another one too? I'm thinking of putting a virtual machine on my new Feisty box (when I finish building it)
[07:03] <SoftIce> su to root! or change the permissions with chown user:group file
[07:03] <jeayese> ok
[07:03] <jeayese> let me try.
[07:03] <PurpZeY_> jeayese: Beryl can affect gl...
[07:03] <ianian> why it sayin this now that i installed it!!! so annoyin lol
[07:04] <sivik> do i need to do anything else other than install the restricted for fiesty to get my 200m video card to work?
[07:04] <cables> Nutubuntu: I know of Qemu, Xen, KVM (which uses Qemu as a frontend) <-- those are free
[07:04] <SoftIce> PurpZeY: screenlets with ubuntu? 3rd party repo or standard in a universe/etc source?
[07:04] <cables> Nutubuntu: I also know of VMware and Parallels, which are not free
[07:04] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: Is it working now?
[07:04] <ianian> nop
[07:04] <Nutubuntu> t/y cables :) it was Xen I was trying to remember ... havent
[07:04] <jeayese> i am trying it now
[07:04] <jeayese> brb
[07:04] <cables> Nutubuntu: VirtualBox is free, but not FOSS. I use it 'cause it has a GUI, unlike some of the others.
[07:04] <ianian> restarted firefox but nufin
[07:04] <Nutubuntu> t/y cables :) it was Xen I was trying to remember ... havent run across KVM before
[07:04] <SoftIce> cableroy: vmware server is free....
[07:04] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: Try this: #update-alternatives --list java'
[07:04] <KDDI> erm, when using xubuntu, wireless work fine?
[07:04] <ianian> that a room?
[07:04] <cables> Nutubuntu: KVM uses built-in virtualization on your processor (only certain CPUs support it)
[07:05] <Nutubuntu> SoftIce,  free but not FOSS-free
[07:05] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: No, a command :p
[07:05] <cables> ianian: no, i think he used the # to specify that it needs to be run as root.
[07:05] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: Ignore the # :)
[07:05] <ianian> hehe kk
[07:05] <ianian> ok lol tks
[07:05] <SoftIce> KDDI: well it all depends on a viarity of things, supported hardware, etc..
[07:05] <cables> ianian: so do this: < sudo update-alternatives --list java >
[07:05] <Nutubuntu> cables, the new box has an A64 4600+ X2
[07:05] <cables> Nutubuntu: there's a command to see if it supports it somewhere
[07:05] <cables> !virtualization > Nutubuntu
[07:06] <ianian> /usr/bin/gij-wrapper-4.1
[07:06] <ianian> /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj/jre/bin/java
[07:06] <kbj> Is it still posibble to use gparted in feisty? or is there some new tool ?
[07:06] <ianian> gave me that
[07:06] <SoftIce> !screenlets
[07:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about screenlets - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:06] <KDDI> what abt vpn, i need to connect vpn to my sch network
[07:06] <Nutubuntu> t/y again, cables ... now if I can only burn the alternet CD :/
[07:06] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: That shows java6 *isn't* installed
[07:06] <SoftIce> !package screenlets
[07:06] <ianian> oh ok lol
[07:06] <SoftIce> how does this bot work
[07:06] <SoftIce> :P
[07:06] <cables> ianian: are you sure you did the < sudo aptitude install sun-java6-plugin > command?
[07:06] <ianian> so...
[07:06] <ianian> lol
[07:06] <ianian> yh
[07:06] <stevej> Is there a simple way to add an option to run a shell script to the 'right click' menu for a desktop icon?
[07:06] <ianian> cameup with T's and C's n'all
[07:06] <jason357> I do not think Ubuntu asked for a root password during install...  How do I su?
[07:06] <cables> stevej: you can add it as an "open with" program
[07:06] <cables> jason357: you don't, you sudo.
[07:07] <cables> !sudo | jason357
[07:07] <ubotu> jason357: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[07:07] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: Is this some kind of test of our technical support abilities? :p
[07:07] <jason357> ah :)
[07:07] <ianian> lol
[07:07] <SoftIce> jason357: its the same as your user passwor
[07:07] <SoftIce> jason357: use sudo
[07:07] <twikesh> !root | jason357
[07:07] <cables> jason357: just type sudo <command> and then your password
[07:07] <stevej> Thank you!
[07:07] <ubotu> jason357: 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
[07:07] <ianian> i wish
[07:07] <cables> jason357: if you want a root terminal, type < sudo -i >
[07:07] <cody_penguin> how do i add another user?
[07:07] <cables> cody_penguin: System>Administration>Users and Groups
[07:07] <ianian> so shall i try the command again?
[07:07] <jason357> thank you everyone :)
[07:07] <Azul> cody_penguin: use adduser
[07:07] <heroin> cody_penguin: useradd
[07:07] <Azul> or that
[07:07] <SoftIce> cody_penguin: useradd
[07:08] <Azul> useradd?
[07:08] <Azul> ok, i got confused
[07:08] <joe_> my keyboard uses dvorak at logon and then qwerty once the session starts - whats wrong and how do i change it to use qwerty always
[07:08] <stevej> What if "Open With" isn't an option?
[07:08] <heroin> Azul: i thought u were right when i read urs.. useradd doesnt make sense
[07:08] <SoftIce> Azul: aggg, all unix flavours are different it could be adduser i might be wrong :)
[07:08] <heroin> stevej: then u cant OPEN it WITh something but SOMETHING can open it
[07:08] <Azul> well, it doesn't hurt to try both
[07:08] <ianian> nipple?
[07:08] <SoftIce> heroin: well useradd userdel are valid user administartion binaries..
[07:08] <cables> cody_penguin: the option I told you might be easier, but if you know what you're doing, you should use the commands people are telling you.
[07:08] <KDDI> erm a qns -> \x6e\x65\x72\x64 what is this call? binary? hex?
[07:08] <heroin> SoftIce: and Azul we all agree its adduser or useradd
[07:08] <wols_> joe_: at what logon?
[07:09] <cables> stevej: go to properties and go to the open with tab
[07:09] <SoftIce> KDDI: hex
[07:09] <cody_penguin> thanks
[07:09] <SoftIce> KDDI: binary is 1's 0's
[07:09] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: I'm thinking - if you've installed Java6 as we think then the results don't make sense or there's something unusual in your installation
[07:09] <KDDI> hw to decode it?
[07:09] <ianian> lol
[07:09] <ianian> can i retry the command?
[07:09] <SoftIce> KDDI: use a hex calculator
[07:09] <joe_> wols_, : at logon to x - using 7.04
[07:09] <KDDI> ok
[07:09] <heroin> ianian: yes unless its a fatal one
[07:10] <ianian> shouldnt it say its been installed
[07:10] <wols_> joe_: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and make sure it's set to qwerty
[07:10] <heroin> ianian: just type man useradd
[07:10] <ianian> any1 got the commad agen then plks?
[07:10] <cables> ianian: can you do this command? < sudo aptitude show sun-java6-plugin | grep State > and tell us the output?
[07:10] <sivik> !ati
[07:10] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:10] <cables> heroin: wrong guy
[07:10] <ianian> oj
[07:10] <ianian> ok
[07:10] <ianian> nipple
[07:10] <Nutubuntu> I've been having trouble burning an iso image. The image file is about 695MB, and it looks like my burner thinks my CDs (which are marked 700MB) will only hold 650. How do I correct this? I've pastebinned the log at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25994/ -- see lines 53-54 and 76

[07:11] <heroin> Bassetts: du

[07:12] <wols_> mykil: you can install X, yes
[07:12] <alexseif> Hi I need to know the umask option when mounting a partition
[07:12] <ianian> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[07:12] <ianian> State: not installed
[07:12] <wols_> alexseif: man mount
[07:12] <heroin> SoftIce: u want more desklests?
[07:12] <joe_> wols_, : kb varient was set to dvorak - thx for the help

[07:12] <Nutubuntu> alexseif,  see http://www.acm.uiuc.edu/workshops/cool_unix/umask.html -- and the caution about umask=000
[07:12] <ianian> only tat
[07:12] <PurpZeY_> jeayese: If your card is recognized properly by Ubuntu, and beryl working is a decent indication of that, it is possibly something on wine's end...ask in #wine
[07:12] <heroin> SoftIce: ok ignore me iam noit making much sense
[07:12] <wols_> ianian: the error tells you exactly what to do
[07:12] <mykil> is x the workstation install
[07:12] <jeayese> ok
[07:12] <jeayese> ill go there now

[07:17] <jose> Excuse me - could anyone here help me with Deskbar? I'm trying to get the google seach thing to work, as well as remove some of the internet search engines.

[07:18] <ceil420> !paste
[07:18] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[07:18] <ceil420> (just cos)
[07:18] <jose> Carb0n, I tried that, then added some new ones - but the old ones stayed.

[07:20] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: Somehow you seem to be managing to *not* install sun-java6-jre :)
[07:20] <jeayese> how do i fix my gfx card drivers?
[07:20] <jeayese> i think there broken
[07:20] <ianian> lol
[07:20] <wols_> jeayese: what card, what driver?
[07:20] <ianian> so shall i try the command again?
[07:20] <jeayese> ATI Radeon 9600
[07:20] <James_M> sh: Can't open et-linux-2.55.x86.run
[07:20] <ianian> to install it?
[07:20] <James_M> that is what it replied
[07:20] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: I think you should :)
[07:20] <ianian> lol
[07:20] <wols_> James_M: ls -al et*
[07:20] <wols_> what is the output?
[07:20] <ianian> any 1 remember it?
[07:21] <Carb0n> jose, there's a gconf key that says to display only the primary search engine, other than that I don't know
[07:21] <Trixsey> wols_, In theory it shouldn't, since it says it doesn't.. but when I do "sudo apt-get install eclipse".. it installs gcj too
[07:21] <TazzY> hey all.. i need some help with linux please
[07:21] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: 'sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre'
[07:21] <Nutubuntu> !ask
[07:21] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:21] <wols_> Trixsey: yes, cause java from sun is in non-free/mutliverse
[07:21] <James_M> wols_: That is what was output.
[07:21] <jason357> does ubuntu come with anything to view wireless networks already installed, or do I need to install something to do so?
[07:21] <Trixsey> wols_, so how do I install eclipse without GCJ?
[07:21] <wols_> James_M: I asked you something else. answer the question
[07:21] <wols_> Trixsey: install java from sun, install eclipse
[07:22] <jose> Carb0n, thanks anyway.
[07:22] <Trixsey> wols_, it should at least be recommended (not depended on)..
[07:22] <etm1> ianian: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#Java_.26_Non-Media_Browser_Plug-ins
[07:22] <Carb0n> jose, anytime!
[07:22] <Trixsey> wols_, if you bothered reading my entire post you'd know I run Java from Sun already
[07:22] <ianian> kk
[07:22] <heroin> how can i make a bakeup of my DVDs?
[07:22] <Trixsey> wols_, still forcing GCJ to be installed
[07:22] <wols_> Trixsey: it cannot be a recommends. eclispe cannot work without an installed java
[07:22] <TazzY> When i start to install ubuntu linux, i have this error: [199.280000]  Buffer I/0 erroron device fd0, logical block 0
[07:22] <Trixsey> wols_, and Suns Java is not an installed Java? I don't quite see your point. As I stated in IRC and as I stated in my post: I have Suns Java
[07:22] <TazzY> chat can i doo ?
[07:22] <TazzY> what*?
[07:23] <kippi> hey
[07:23] <wols_> Trixsey: apt-cache show eclipse, apt-cache show sun-java6-bin apt-cache show  sun-java6-jre
[07:23] <ianian> ok
[07:23] <ianian> t&c again
[07:23] <kippi> what is the best way off backing up a dvd on ubuntu?
[07:23] <Nuked> niekie, did safari work?
[07:23] <wols_> TazzY: fd0 is your floppy drive. why is it  accessing that?
[07:23] <ianian> got ok on bottom but cannot click or type it
[07:24] <Trixsey> wols_, in my post I also checked packages Azureus/Eclipse depends on... -_-, please read the entire post
[07:24] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: Use the Tab key to navigate to it
[07:24] <etm1> TazzY: check your floppy disk drive
[07:24] <TazzY> wols_ i dont have a floppy drive in my computer... only DVD-ROM
[07:24] <stevej> kippi: Right click on it's icon and select "Copy disk"
[07:24] <wols_> TazzY: I did. it depends on gcj OR sun-jre
[07:24] <ianian> ohh ok tks
[07:24] <wols_> Trixsey: ^^
[07:24] <ianian> didnt see that
[07:24] <kippi> will that what on movies etc?
[07:24] <jeayese> *sigh*
[07:24] <wols_> TazzY: when exactly does this message show up?
[07:24] <TazzY> wols_ what do u mean ?
[07:24] <jeayese> 1166 people in here and no one can help me.
[07:25] <wols_> jeayese: you you are unable to answer questions: of course not
[07:25] <jeayese> what question did you ask me
[07:25] <stevej> kippi: It should, I think it makes an exact, byte-for-byte duplicate.
[07:25] <TazzY> wols_ when i chose the option "Start or Install"
[07:25] <jeayese> I answered you!
[07:25] <wols_> jeayese: you did not. go away until you answer all of it
[07:25] <Trixsey> wols_, why would if force an install of GCJ if I already run Suns Java? It seems very illogical to me...
[07:25] <jeayese> I said ATI Radeon 9600
[07:25] <magnetron> !attitude | wols_
[07:25] <ianian> ok shud b dun now
[07:25] <ubotu> wols_: The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[07:25] <wols_> jeayese: that is only half the answer
[07:26] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: Famous last words!
[07:26] <jeayese> oh
[07:26] <wols_> magnetron: If you haven't noticed. I help people. I didn't ask a single question yet of my own
[07:26] <jeayese> ok
[07:26] <HorizonXP> hey, what's the best live search applet in Feisty?
[07:26] <ianian> lol
[07:26] <n2diy> TazzY: are you installing from a floppy drive?
[07:26] <HorizonXP> !ubotu search
[07:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about search - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:26] <TazzY> n2diy nope. from the CD
[07:26] <jeayese> i dont know what driver
[07:26] <HorizonXP> !ubotu livesearch
[07:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about livesearch - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:26] <jeayese> but its to fix this error: direct rendering: No
[07:26] <IntuitiveNipple> ubotu: Ask Google :p
[07:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ask google :p - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:26] <etm1> TazzY: go bios and disable all floppy drives and floppy seek and so on...
[07:27] <jeayese> I dont have direct rendering for some reason.
[07:27] <wols_> HorizonXP: /msg ubotu <factoid you want to know about>
[07:27] <IntuitiveNipple> typical bot! lol
[07:27] <ianian> still doesnt work
[07:27] <Carb0n> TazzY: might be a bad or loose connector
[07:27] <ianian> on firefox
[07:27] <wols_> !ati > jeayese
[07:27] <TazzY> etm1 ok. i will try now... tnx a lot :)
[07:27] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: You haven't installed the plugin yet, though, so that is to be expected!
[07:27] <jeayese> what?
[07:27] <Carb0n> TazzY: try disabling Floppy support from BIOS (unless you plan to use it.)
[07:27] <n2diy> TazzY: make sure there are no disks in your floppy drives, it looks like the installer is reading your first floppy drive, fd0, ond choking on what it finds there.
[07:27] <TazzY> ok Carb0n tnx.. :)
[07:27] <wols_> jeayese: ubotu just messaged you
[07:27] <ianian> lol
[07:28] <_Ahti> jeayese: What card do you have?
[07:28] <Carb0n> TazzY: any time...
[07:28] <ianian> so how do i do that?
[07:28] <wols_> n2diy: he has no floppy...
[07:28] <jeayese> I read all that
[07:28] <jeayese> none of it helped
[07:28] <_Ahti> jeayese: Have you installed the drivers for it?
[07:28] <jeayese> thats why i am here
[07:28] <Nutubuntu> I've been having trouble burning an iso image. The image file is about 695MB, and it looks like my burner thinks my CDs (which are marked 700MB) will only hold 650. How do I correct this? I've pastebinned the log at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25994/ -- see lines 53-54 and 76
[07:28] <jeayese> yes
[07:28] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: lets make sure java6 is installed now: "dpkg-query -l sun*' - you should see about 4 packages listed
[07:28] <nostferka> how do i find the location of hardware?
[07:28] <jeayese> i used the add/ remove applications
[07:28] <ianian> so complicated
[07:28] <jeayese> it came ith the drivers for my card
[07:28] <wols_> jeayese: glxinfo. paste he output of that
[07:28] <sheep-> I need to get my system to use Restricted drivers, I already have the ATI driver installed but when I got to the Restricted Drivers Manager it says "Your system doesn't need to use restricted drivers"
[07:28] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: It has never been this complicated for me... it must be you :p
[07:28] <ianian> yes its cum up now
[07:28] <wols_> nostferka: under your desk? you need to be more specific in your question
[07:28] <ianian> lol
[07:29] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: YAY... have a party!
[07:29] <nostferka> lol
[07:29] <ianian> lol
[07:29] <jeayese> ok
[07:29] <jeayese> one sec
[07:29] <wols_> sheep-: what videochip?
[07:29] <nostferka> well my sound system cant locate the soundcard
[07:29] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: 'sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin'
[07:29] <sheep-> wols_: x800
[07:29] <nostferka> and it says i can define an overiride location?
[07:29] <jeayese> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26000/
[07:29] <jeayese> there
[07:29] <ikaroweb> why the plugin of imageshack does not work with firefox?
[07:29] <tannerld> anyone else using eclipse find it very slow or cpu intensive while editing a file?
[07:29] <ianian> ok going
[07:30] <unop> eclipse was written in java (for java too??) -- go figure :)
[07:30] <IntuitiveNipple> tannerld: Not usually, although it depends on which editor you are using and how much RAM you have given it :)
[07:30] <IntuitiveNipple> ianian: I need a cuppa after all this stress
[07:30] <akromyk> how would I go about printing to a windows network printer using Ubuntu?
[07:30] <wols_> jeayese: dpkg -l |grep fglrx
[07:31] <ianian> lol
[07:31] <jeayese> ok
[07:31] <ianian> certainly do
[07:31] <sheep-> I need to get my system to use Restricted drivers, I already have the ATI driver installed but when I got to the Restricted Drivers Manager it says "Your system doesn't need to use restricted drivers"
[07:31] <ianian> its workin now
[07:31] <efritz> i'm missing snd-usb-audio how do i get it?
[07:31] <jeayese> what do I do after I type that?
[07:31] <efritz> i need them for altec lansing XT1 usb speakers
[07:31] <ianian> thanksss nipple...finally dun it lol
[07:31] <unop> sheep-, if you already have a driver, why are you looking for it again?
[07:31] <wols_> nostferka: lspci should tell you what soundcard
[07:31] <riotkittie> TTYs arent coming up when i'm wireless, and when i bring 'em up manually, i get a funky double prompt and a message about no job control. i take it this ties in with the fact configuring network interfaces fails at startup, or am i wronG?
[07:31] <nostferka> ok
[07:31] <tannerld> IntuitiveNipple: I'm using the PDT editor, and it should have plenty of RAM.. I think
[07:31] <sheep-> unop: Because ubuntu isn't using/recognising I have it installed and when i switch to xgl its all distorted
[07:32] <Trixsey> Hey, I've got a problem with Java/GCJ in Ubuntu (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=476593), any ideas?

[07:33] <efritz> How do you install the snd-usb-audio module?  I can't find a guide online or anything, and I know that because ubuntu packages their own ALSA, it doesn't come with it; it's necessary for what I have (i'm running on a MacBook Pro and there's no sound from the speakers, either - but my headphones work; so I need to be able to use these external speakers!)
[07:33] <Trixsey> wols_, http://www.mathbin.net/11525
[07:33] <riotkittie> wols_: do you have a better theory? :P  ttys dont tie in with networking at all?

[07:35] <jeayese> I typed: dpkg -l |grep fglrx... Now what?
[07:35] <efritz> what's fglrxinfo say, jeayese
[07:35] <nostferka> still no sound 4 me :(
[07:35] <johnm5> Can anyone tell me how to install the 32 bit libglitz on my 64bit system? I need it for the 32bit Firefox 3. I tried using force architecture, but that just overwrites the 64 bit one

[07:35] <IntuitiveNipple> tannerld: I'm not sure, unless you've got an issue with the context-highlighting in the background? I've never had a problem with it except on slower.low-RAM notebooks when I've got everything loaded
[07:35] <jose> So hey - I removed several search engines in Firefox, but deskbar still displays them under Internet Search. Anyone have any idea why?

[07:39] <wols_> you have to enable dri inside that program
[07:39] <jeayese> ok
[07:39] <nj786> wols_, exactly what do you mean?
[07:39] <f4rbr0r^KaLL3> nj786, google for "ubuntu look like os-x guide"
and where in system found this font ?
[07:39] <wols_> nj786: I did not talk to you
[07:39] <nj786> wolss_ sorry
[07:39] <jeayese> /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: please specify a package to reconfigure
[07:39] <jeayese> it said that
[07:40] <wols_> and I told you what package
[07:40] <f4rbr0r^KaLL3> nj786, http://www.saunalahti.fi/lorn/dt.png <-- is that ok?
[07:40] <Azul> jeayese: you have to specify the package.. dpkg-reconfigure doesn't read minds
[07:40] <Flannel> nj786: That's one of the docks.  I'd check out Avant Window Navigator (http://awn.wetpaint.com/?t=anon)
[07:41] <st0xx> Ghbdtn
[07:41] <st0xx> 
[07:41] <jeayese> ... I dont udnerstand.
[07:41] <st0xx> 
[07:41] <jeayese> seriously
[07:41] <jeayese> this is all new to me
[07:41] <nj786> f4rbr0r^KALL3, yes that is exactly it
[07:41] <wols_> jeayese: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:41] <st0xx> Hi all! =)
[07:41] <nj786>  f4rbr0r^KALL3,now how do  i make it like that(the bottom pannel)(
[07:41] <xampik> Flannel where is Bitstream Vera Sans (folder adress) ?
[07:42] <jeayese> ok
[07:42] <jeayese> this window came up
[07:42] <f4rbr0r^KaLL3> nj786, http://www.taimila.com/ubuntuosx.php
[07:42] <nj786> flannel, do i have to install it?
[07:42] <Flannel> xampik: /usr/share/fonts is the font folder.  But again, you *cannot* reliably use that on a website.  Only people with that font will be able to see it as that font
[07:42] <Flannel> nj786: yeah
[07:42] <st0xx> If you want get op on this cahnnel, press Alt+F4.
[07:43] <nj786> flannel, and is the download on the site you gave me?
[07:43] <f4rbr0r^KaLL3> nj786, just use that guide i pasted :)
[07:43] <nomic> do applications just not run if there's not enough memory?
[07:43] <nj786> ok
[07:43] <nj786> lol
[07:43] <wols_> nomic: it will give you an error message
[07:43] <nomic> terminal won't run either
[07:43] <nomic> right i've loaded 7.04 onto a pentium II it gives me the desktop and has an install icon when i press on it nothing happens .... ANYONE?
[07:43] <wols_> nomic: run the app from a xterm/terminal
[07:43] <nomic> can't run terminal
[07:43] <Flannel> nj786: they have an ubuntu repository if you poke around that site some.
[07:43] <wols_> nomic: how much memory?
[07:43] <nj786> by the way  f4rbr0r^KALL3, i am a newbie
[07:43] <nomic> old machine
[07:44] <f4rbr0r^KaLL3> nj786, that is a easy guide
[07:44] <nj786> so i am going to need a lot of assitance
[07:44] <wols_> nomic: that's not what I asked. how much memory?
[07:44] <nomic> thats got to be the most complicated nick i've ever seen
[07:44] <jeayese> do i select fglrx in the window?
[07:44] <wols_> jeayese: if it's not already selectewd: yes
[07:44] <nomic> how do i find out?
[07:44] <wols_> nomic: ls -al /proc/kcore
[07:44] <nomic> no terminal
[07:45] <wols_> ctrl+alt+f2
[07:45] <nj786>  f4rbr0r^KALL3, where does it show how to install it?
[07:45] <nomic> brb
[07:45] <f4rbr0r^KaLL3> lol..
[07:45] <f4rbr0r^KaLL3> windows-freak
[07:45] <f4rbr0r^KaLL3> :D
[07:45] <Flannel> nomic, wols_, gnome-terminal (programs > accessories > terminal), no need to go to a TTY
[07:45] <jeayese> ok done
[07:45] <jeayese> brb
 in css its possible to use ;) but i like to search all adress for this font (in usr/share/fonts are many fodlers with fonts)
[07:46] <wols_> Flannel: he cannot starrt programs due to possible lack of memory
[07:46] <Nutubuntu> I don't understand why I cannot write the Feisty alternate install iso to a 700MB cd, but it consistently fails. Checksum is okay for the iso file..
[07:46] <wols_> gnome terminal isn't exactly lean...
[07:46] <Flannel> Nutubuntu: what speed are you burning at?
[07:46] <nj786>  f4rbr0r^KALL3, i appologize, but i am a true noobie
[07:46] <wols_> Nutubuntu: how does it fail? errmro messages aren't just for show
[07:46] <k0rn> lol
[07:46] <wols_> *error
[07:46] <f4rbr0r^KaLL3> nj786, read that gnome-panel part... there are pretty easy instructions
[07:46] <k0rn> their not
[07:47] <f4rbr0r^KaLL3> with screenshots
[07:47] <k0rn> i thought error messages were their for entertainment on how shit just dosent work
[07:47] <Nutubuntu> wols_ I have pastebinned the entire thing at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25994/ thank you for asking about that :)
[07:47] <nomic> ls -al /proc/kcore says 134221824
[07:47] <nomic> wols
[07:47] <Flannel> xampik: No, in CSS it's not possible to use.  You can only use fonts that the user already has on their computer.  Neither of the 'download fonts from the internet' systems work very well (or are very widespread).
[07:48] <Nutubuntu> Flannel, so far have been trying to burn at 16x.
[07:48] <mage> Flannel: IE is still more than 50% ;)
[07:48] <mikeyhatesms> INSTALL HELP PLEASE.  i started at midnite last nite, had to abort twice by 430 am, now its 146pm here in not so sunny south florida (boca raton), and i'm still stuck at the partition.  i aborted last nite because feisty seemed like she was going to delete all my docs and files instead of migrating them; can someone PLEASE help me through this??? :) i want to learn the ubuntu way.

[07:48] <nj786>  f4rbr0r^KALL3, lol um....(cough) exactly where is that?
[07:48] <Flannel> mage: IE doesn't do it by default.  You have to download an activeX control and stuff.  But this is offtopic.
[07:48] <Flannel> Nutubuntu: try 4x
[07:48] <wols_> mikeyhatesms: what partition is it right now ntfs?
[07:49] <k0rn> f4rbr0r^KaLL3, you name is like an error message :)
[07:49] <nomic> ls -al /proc/kcore says 134221824  ... wols
[07:49] <nostferka`> why, when i open a file on my lan is it copied to a local folder?
[07:49] <f4rbr0r^KaLL3> nj786, http://www.taimila.com/ubuntuosx.php .... there.. it says "Gnome panel customizing"
[07:49] <wols_> nomic: that means it's a 128MB machine
[07:49] <flaxter> 1169 pepoles...
[07:49] <nomic> is that ok for 7.04 wols?
[07:49] <Nutubuntu> Flannel, I will ... waiting now for my dummy cli cdrecord session to finish or fail
 ok , thx ;)
[07:50] <wols_> nomic: read the system reuqirements: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/704
[07:50] <nomic> ty
[07:50] <Flannel> nj786: http://awn.wetpaint.com/page/Ubuntu+Feisty+Repository  follow those instructions
[07:50] <wols_> nomic: try xubuntu perhaps. or the altenrative CD
[07:50] <mikeyhatesms> INSTALL HELP PLEASE.  i started at midnite last nite, had to abort twice by 430 am, now its 146pm here in not so sunny south florida (boca raton), and i'm still stuck at the partition.  i aborted last nite because feisty seemed like she was going to delete all my docs and files instead of migrating them; can someone PLEASE help me through this??? :) i want to learn the ubuntu way.
[07:50] <y3it221_klce> When i connect my USB PenDrive and UnMount it....the Volume is not visible on the Desktop but the LIght on the Pendrive is still ON...what should i do
[07:50] <y3it221_klce> ??
[07:50] <nomic> damn
[07:50] <nomic> crap
[07:50] <nomic> chose the wrong machine
[07:50] <nomic> thanks wols
[07:51] <wols_> mikeyhatesms: since you won#t answer questions but spam the channel repeatedly instead, why do you expect an answer?
[07:51] <k0rn> clear
[07:51] <haggis> i'm trying to setup an encrypted partition which i've done but when i boot my computer it tells me "Special device /dev/mapper/crypt does not exist" even though it is in /etc/crypttab - any ideas?
[07:51] <alexseif> no I meant the umask for the mount option (and man mount does not describe the options
[07:51] <nj786> flannel, so i type all thes einto terminal?
[07:51] <Flannel> nomic: alternate CD will install fine.  Xubuntu you might be happier with (more reponsive) in the long run.
[07:51] <wols_> alexseif: it does
[07:51] <Heme> behold! I'm back with another problem. Got ubuntu (7.04) installed but cant get my pppoe-based (I think) internet to work, found this: https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/internet/C/connect-to-internet.html#modems-adsl-pppoe <-- and followed it but after typing that "sudo pppoeconf" it asks for password. I cant even type anything to that as it just blinks blankly and only registers enter.
[07:51] <wols_> alexseif: " Set the umask (the bitmask of the permissions that are not present). The default is the umask of the...."
[07:51] <mikeyhatesms> wols: i answered it din't i?
[07:52] <nomic> xubuntu is the alternate cd?
[07:52] <Flannel> nj786: No.  The first command there has you open a text editor, then the second set is stuff you add to that text document.  Then the third set of instructions is again in the terminal
[07:52] <wols_> mikeyhatesms: you did not
[07:52] <Jeayes1> well that didnt work
[07:52] <nomic> xubuntu is the alternate cd?
[07:52] <Jeayes1> Xserver or whatever came up saying something was wrong
[07:52] <haggis> Heme: i don't know about ppoeconf but I would imagine the password prompt is just not echoing your password back, like it's supposed to
[07:52] <mikeyhatesms> INSTALL HELP PLEASE.  i started at midnite last nite, had to abort twice by 430 am, now its 146pm here in not so sunny south florida (boca raton), and i'm still stuck at the partition.  i aborted last nite because feisty seemed like she was going to delete all my docs and files instead of migrating them; can someone PLEASE help me through this??? :) i want to learn the ubuntu way.
[07:52] <Flannel> nomic: no.  Xubuntu uses XFCE instead of Gnome (different GUI), but the alternate CD is for each distro, and installs with a different installer, instead of the liveCD
[07:52] <wols_> nomic: no. get xubuntu. much better with your amount of RAM. xubuntu.org
[07:52] <Flannel> !repeat | mikeyhatesms
[07:52] <ubotu> mikeyhatesms: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[07:53] <alexseif> wols_: I have a problem when auto mounting all files are set to read only so when I logon to win xp applications hault and some are not operational
[07:53] <nj786> flannel i am just going to stick with f4rbr0r^KALL3 guidei  do not want to mess anything up
[07:53] <nomic> ty
[07:53] <wols_> alexseif:  I know. ntfs or fat?
[07:53] <alexseif> I need to understand how it works do I can properly set it
[07:53] <haggis> anyone know about dm-crypt? and why it will not boot at start up?
[07:53] <mikeyhatesms> i'm sorry. i don't know why my answer isn't showing, i see that it isn't
[07:53] <Heme> haggis: what does that mean and how to help it? :P
[07:53] <alexseif> fat32
[07:53] <LuizFelipe> how i can install grub in other distro ?
[07:53] <alexseif> /dev/hda1       /media/os1      vfat    umask=0222      0       0
[07:53] <alexseif> for example
[07:53] <haggis> Heme: what are you trying to do?
[07:53] <Flannel> LuizFelipe: what do you mean?
[07:53] <Heme> make my internet connection working
[07:54] <wols_> !fat | alexseif
[07:54] <ubotu> alexseif: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse
[07:54] <Heme> it doesnt work on ubuntu so I have to switch to XP when I want to use net
[07:54] <alexseif> !fuse ?
[07:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fuse ? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:54] <wols_> Heme: enter your password, and press enter. what happens?
[07:54] <Heme> nothing, cant type the password
[07:54] <nomic> wols will xubuntu run all the same devices as ubuntu (hardware devices)?
[07:54] <mage> mikeyhatesms: sounds like your problem would take a lot of probing to figure out what you mean ;)
[07:55] <LuizFelipe> Flannel,  i needed to install windows after i installed ubuntu, then i lose the grub and ubuntu not start again
[07:55] <Nutubuntu> Hm ... are all 700MB cds actually capable of holding 700MB? Or could I have gotten hold of some that cannot hold their labeled capacity?
[07:55] <wols_> alexseif: yo do not want to use fuse for FAT
[07:55] <Tiradin> I tried to move all files/folders from one partition on HDA to my HDB drive, using cp -R <source> <destination> but it didn't work... I think it might be the flags on HDB. Could someone tell me how to change them so any user can write to HDB?
[07:55] <mikeyhatesms> wols: i will try again. filesystem is ntfs, tot size 18.63, used 12.67, unused 5.96,under flags it says 'boot'
[07:55] <haggis> Oh, heme hasn't grasped sudo
[07:55] <wols_> Nutubuntu: you still haven't told us the error
[07:55] <Heme> it only registers enter, all other buttons are registered with short delay of that blinking cursor
[07:55] <LuizFelipe> Flannel, and i dont have ubuntu live cd, i 2 other ditros that uses lilo
[07:55] <wols_> mikeyhatesms: you cannot migrate ntfs. all you can do is resize it
[07:55] <Heme> and no, haggis, never used linux before :P
[07:55] <alexseif> thanx but I still don't know how to work it myself
[07:55] <haggis> Heme: it is meant to do that so your password doesn't appear on the screen
[07:56] <Nutubuntu> wols_ I don't want to flood the channel; I have pastebinned the error at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25994/  (as I mentioned before)
[07:56] <haggis> Heme: it won't display stars either so as not to give away how many letters are in your password
[07:56] <f4rbr0r^KaLL3> Does anyone know how to get sopcast to play from link or maybe how to add channels to gsopcast? :P
[07:56] <Flannel> LuizFelipe: how did you install Ubuntu?
[07:56] <Nutubuntu> Should I not be using pastebin? I can paste it here if you want but it's about 100 lines
[07:56] <matsur> My firefox starts to spawn new tabs as really bizarre windows, which, when closed, hang firefox. if you close the "tab" that spawned the window the window disappears. restarting FF solves the problem. anyone else see this?
[07:56] <mikeyhatesms> can you translate that to 'newbie'?
[07:56] <Heme> hm, I think I tried typing my whole pw once but it gave some "error, please try again" or some
[07:56] <mage> Nutubuntu: lol
[07:56] <LuizFelipe> Flannel, using live cd, but i dont have it more
[07:56] <Flannel> Nutubuntu: 700 are capable, the others are 650, and I believe it'd tell you.
[07:56] <haggis> Heme: that would mean you put the wrong password in ;)
[07:56] <nj786> flannel, i am currently using your guiide,
[07:57] <mage> Nutubuntu: you'd get less than 10 lines posted before kicked ;)
[07:57] <Flannel> LuizFelipe: ah, alright.  Well, there's a grub disk you can download (small) and burn, and it does wonders with grub.
[07:57] <Flannel> !grub | LuizFelipe
[07:57] <ubotu> LuizFelipe: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[07:57] <haggis> it's simple, just type your password and hit enter
[07:57] <nj786> flannel, what do i do when i am finished?
[07:57] <Flannel> LuizFelipe: first link there
[07:57] <Tiradin> I tried to move all files/folders from one partition on HDA to my HDB drive, using cp -R <source> <destination> but it didn't work... I think it might be the flags on HDB. Could someone tell me how to change them so any user can write to HDB?
[07:57] <Heme> hm, am sceptical, it felt like it was bugged somehow :P
[07:57] <LuizFelipe> Flannel,  ok, ty
[07:57] <Heme> but fine, I'll try once more, bbl
[07:57] <Nutubuntu> Oh! ... lol ... well, I don't want to get kicked, so pastebin seems to be the way to go -- it's good I started out there in the first place.
[07:57] <alexseif> wols_: can we talk for a sec
[07:57] <wols_> Nutubuntu: does it always stop at the same place  "656 of  696MB written" ?
[07:58] <wols_> alexseif: we already are talking
[07:58] <alexseif> umask is an inverted mask ?
[07:58] <Flannel> alexseif: no, umask is a real mask
[07:58] <mage> Nutubuntu: I cant help, I've never tried burning a cd/dvd in linux
[07:58] <wols_> yes. usually you use 022 or 002
[07:58] <Azul> .
[07:58] <Flannel> nj786: Once you've gotten thm installed, I'm not really sure.  Does it not pop up?  I'd try the forum post (at the bottom of that page), and read through it, see what people have questions with (and maybe post your own)
[07:59] <NeXtDaY> hi all
[07:59] <Nutubuntu> wols_,  so far yes, it stops at same place; I suspect the CDs are junk
[07:59] <mikeyhatesms> wols: don't know what you mean by that; can you plz tell me how to proceed?  does that mean that i will keep xp on my sys until i find some way to back it up?
[07:59] <Tiradin> I tried to move all files/folders from one partition on HDA to my HDB drive, using cp -R <source> <destination> but it didn't work... I think it might be the flags on HDB. Could someone tell me how to change them so any user can write to HDB?
[07:59] <alexseif> ok rwx means r=read, w=write,
[07:59] <alexseif> but I don't know what x is for
[07:59] <Flannel> alexseif: execute
[07:59] <alexseif> gr8
[07:59] <alistair_blunt> hi there, does somebody know a way to restart audio engine without restarting the sistem
[07:59] <nj786> flannel, do you think this would help?   http://www.taimila.com/ubuntuosx.php#panels
[07:59] <FreeFull> alexseif: x means executable
[08:00] <alexseif> now to leave a file as it is
[08:00] <alexseif> ?
[08:00] <mage> wheres a good place to find out about wireless cards people have successfully used in ubuntu or linux, either one is fine. I'm looking to upgrade from a prism2.5 card
[08:00] <Azul> execute, like chopping a guy's head off
[08:00] <hackle577> i have a quick question for one of you bash scripters out there
[08:00] <NeXtDaY> hiya Azul
[08:00] <Azul> or hanging him on the noose
[08:00] <Azul> NeXtDaY: hi :)
[08:00] <alexseif> /dev/hda1       /media/os1      vfat    umask=0222      0       0
[08:00] <Flannel> nj786: If you only want a panel, AWN is the way to go, from what I hear.  More stable than cairo.
[08:00] <alexseif> FreeFull: this messes up all the files
[08:00] <ChaosMachine> Tiradin: what are the filesystems of hda and hdb?
[08:00] <xipietotec> hrrm, I dunno what the deal is exactly, but um. how do I change the splash screen?
[08:00] <wols_> mage: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Hardware-HOWTO/, or see http://www.linuxcompatible.org/compatlist3.html
[08:00] <alexseif> it sets them all to read only
[08:00] <alexseif> an my winxp
[08:01] <nj786> flannel, i do not know why is itsnt working
[08:01] <hackle577> what is the linux equivalent of DOS's "@echo off" ?
[08:01] <Tiradin> ChaosMachine: HDA is split into a number of partitions. Two of them are NTFS (my windows partitions) and then there are the linux partitions, which are EXT2. HDB is FAT32
[08:01] <f4rbr0r^KaLL3> nj786, just do what my guide says.. it is very easy and illustrated :P
[08:01] <Tiradin> ChaosMachine: Long story short, I'm trying to back up some files from one of the NTFS partition to the FAT32 partition for back up... I don't have any files over 4GB
[08:01] <wols_> hackle577: does not exist
[08:02] <Nutubuntu> hackle577,  you could direct output > /dev/null I suppose
[08:02] <hackle577> wols_: there's no way to inhibit the shell from opening when I run a script?
[08:02] <wols_> hackle577: run it how?
[08:02] <miguel> oi
[08:02] <Azul> Tiradin: so what's the problem?
[08:02] <ChaosMachine> Tiradin: So, your doing this from linux (an HDB ext2 partition?) trying to copy from and HDA ntfs filesystem to a fat32 wich is also on HDB, correct?
[08:02] <etm1> Nutubuntu, you need 80 min cd-r to burn ubuntu cd, standard 74 min cd-r is too small ubuntu fit in
[08:03] <IntuitiveNipple> hackle577: Use " 	set +v"
[08:03] <Tiradin> My linux is on HDA,
[08:03] <Nutubuntu> etm1,  these are labeled 80min but I think maybe they're ... um ... mislabeled would be the polite way to put it
[08:03] <nj786> f4rbr0r^KALL3, ok  iam following the gnom,e customize pannel
[08:03] <hackle577> wols_: i created a script that selects a wallpaper for me at random from a directory full of images
[08:03] <FreeFull> hackle577: "@echo off" in dos stops from showing what .bat file does. This is linux default
[08:03] <Tiradin> ChaosMachine: I don't think I have proper flags on HDB, i can't remember how to edit FSTAB properally.
[08:03] <wols_> !fat | Tiradin
[08:03] <ubotu> Tiradin: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse
[08:03] <Azul> Tiradin: what program are you using to backup if any?
[08:03] <IntuitiveNipple> hackle577: Or "set -v" depending on if you want 'verbose' on or off
[08:03] <hackle577> wols_: the shell pops up whenever I run it, i dont want it to
[08:04] <Tiradin> Azul: I was just using the "cp -R <source> <destination>" command in terminal.
[08:04] <tina> help, what kind a bluetooth interface that good working with ubuntu?
[08:04] <hackle577> IntuitiveNipple: at the beginning of the script?
[08:04] <Azul> Tiradin: and that didn't work?
[08:04] <s171C0n> hello
[08:04] <IntuitiveNipple> hackle577: Where-ever you want it to apply from, so probably yes
[08:04] <hackle577> ok
[08:04] <s171C0n> hey guys i'm having some problems with a dvd drive
[08:04] <Azul> tina: apt-get install gnome-bluetooth
[08:04] <wols_> hackle577: I asked you how do you run it. and: cmd.exe will pop up under windows too if you start he batch file from GUI
[08:04] <ChaosMachine> Tiradin: Well, actually. Did you mount the NTFS and FAT32 drives? I'm not sure about Ubuntu, but linux doesnt normally make those drives accesable at all automatically.
[08:04] <mikeyhatesms> please can someone tell me what the way is to 'resize' partition?  do i need to resize xp or ubuntu, sorry i am so dense.
[08:05] <Chore-Boy> hello!!!!!
[08:05] <Tiradin> ChaosMachine: I've been running Ubuntu for awhile. the NTFS drive is read only but it still works, it has all my music on it.
[08:05] <wols_> mikeyhatesms: you resize windows
[08:05] <hackle577> wols_: sorry, i made a menu item in my gnome main menu
[08:05] <Tiradin> NTFS is mounted, and I do have the FAT32 drive mounted at /media/hdb1/
[08:05] <Nutubuntu> Does the network based feisty install permit setting up RAID (using md) the way the alternate CD does?
[08:05] <keeev> what would happen if i put ddr ram into a sdram computer?
[08:05] <Tiradin> I actually can't get in to check if I've copied everything.. I see a folder in there called "Collective" (Which is the name of the NTFS partition)
[08:05] <Flannel> keeev: #ubuntu-offtopic, or maybe try #hardware
[08:05] <Nutubuntu> keeev,  would it fit? I thought form factors were different
[08:06] <penguin42> keeev: I expect it either not to boot or more likely not actually fit
[08:06] <wols_> mikeyhatesms: http://www.easy-ubuntu-linux.com/resize-windows-partition.html
[08:06] <Tiradin> How do I get into the directory as root? is it just "sudo cd /media/hdb1/Collective" ?
[08:06] <Flannel> mikeyhatesms: you'll want to shrink XP, by about 4GB or so (since you don't have much space), and then you can install Ubuntu in that empty space
[08:06] <ChaosMachine> Tiradin: Then I'm afraid this is as far as I go, I've only succesfully done this in slackware. :/
[08:06] <holgerp> hello can somebody help me?
[08:06] <s171C0n> windows will read virtually any disc from the dvd drive but ubuntu has some problems, i've always thought it was the dying laser...could it be because of better driver support?
[08:06] <wols_> Tiradin: yes
[08:06] <Tiradin> ChaosMachine: That's alright :)
[08:06] <danny> hello,can you help me? I want to add desklets to my session but everytime i do it doesn't work when i restart
[08:06] <mikeyhatesms> so i have gparted open.  it says: tot size: 18.63, used 12.67, unused 5.96... what to do next?
[08:06] <Tiradin> wols_:sudo: cd: command not found
[08:06] <tina> azul: I mind every kind of bluetooth type easy to rocognize and configuring?
[08:06] <Tiradin> wols_: sudo: cd: command not found
[08:06] <keeev> ty
[08:06] <wols_> Tiradin: sudo bash. then cd...
[08:06] <holgerp> have somebody some knowledges about openswan?
[08:06] <Tiradin> ok
[08:07] <danny> i got ubuntu 7.04
[08:07] <wols_> !ask > holgerp
[08:07] <freddy__> Hello - I just used an ipod for the first time with ubuntu/amarok - now I want to rip a cd and put that onto the ipod - which app for the ripping and mp3 encoding ?
[08:07] <jysaudi> Can anyone help me with a microphone problem?
[08:07] <Nutubuntu> So wols_, do you think it's the CDs themselves?
[08:07] <wols_> ask > jysaudi
[08:07] <Azul> tina: easy and linux shouldn't be used in the same sentence
[08:07] <wols_> Nutubuntu: I asked you a question. I won't answer until you answer my questions too
[08:07] <danny> nutubuntu: what's the problem?
[08:07] <hylje> Azul: why not?
[08:08] <jysaudi> Just recently installed ubuntu..sound is good but the microphone does not work
[08:08] <Azul> hylje: try to get bluetooth or a wireless card working
[08:08] <holgerp> i need to start openswan with klips
[08:08] <Tiradin> wols_: Shouldn't the cp -R command work?
[08:08] <holgerp> but i don't knwo how to manage ist
[08:08] <hylje> Azul: both worked out of the box
[08:08] <holgerp> it
[08:08] <Nutubuntu> wols_,  I answered your question, but I think maybe you missed it amidst all the rest of the things you were doing: Yes, it makes the same error at 656 MB each time.
[08:08] <s171C0n> what's so wrong with saying that linux is easy?
[08:08] <wols_> Tiradin: it should. if do it via sudo
[08:08] <Tiradin> wols_: If I just type "sudo cp -R /media/Collective/* /media/hdb1/"
[08:08] <Tiradin> ?
[08:08] <Tiradin> err... without the asterik
[08:08] <Azul> hylje: working as in really working, you connect bluetooth devices, share services and stuff
[08:08] <s171C0n> nm
[08:08] <hylje> Azul: although bluetooth involved some research, as to enable it
[08:08] <Nutubuntu> danny, I'm trying to burn the Feisty alternate ISO onto 700MB CDs but it fails
[08:09] <hylje> Azul: yes, i use my mobile as a modem
[08:09] <s171C0n> linux = kernel; i forgot
[08:09] <wols_> mikeyhatesms: sprry. didn't see. it. if it always stops at 650MB, it very much looks like 650MB CD-Rs
[08:09] <wols_> get a different brand
[08:09] <ChaosMachine> jysaudi: click on your volume control, go into mixer hit the input tab. I'm willing to bet your mic is either the volume is all the way down, or is off completely. (the red button should be "lit")
[08:09] <danny> nutubuntu: what program are you using
[08:09] <Azul> hylje: it might be my luck, cuz i tried it with 3 different cell phones and it didn't connect
[08:09] <wols_> Tiradin: basically yes
[08:09] <Nutubuntu> wols_,  mikeyhatesms != Nutubuntu  ;)
[08:09] <Nutubuntu> danny, using cdrecord
[08:09] <Azul> i must be really unlucky
[08:09] <mikeyhatesms> it seems kind of crazy to have 1175 users in the room and there's only one guy to help anyone.  has anyone ever thought of coordinating efforts here?
[08:10] <wols_> Nutubuntu: he is not the only one who demands help but is not able to answer simple questions. lots of those here
[08:10] <Azul> lol @ mikeyhatesms
[08:10] <danny> nutubuntu: care to record it as an iso image
[08:10] <m1r> mikeyhatesms ?
[08:10] <Tiradin> wols_: last question, how do I purge a directory in terminal... like a "delete all" command
[08:10] <s171C0n> there are other channels
[08:10] <Nutubuntu> Okay ... mikeyhatesms ... I'll take over part of it, but I won't talk to you until you answer my question ;p
[08:10] <Azul> mikeyhatesms: who is the one guy?
[08:10] <PriceChild> mikeyhatesms, help people if you can, otherwise please stop the noise :)
[08:10] <wols_> Tiradin: rm -rf. be VERY careful with that
[08:10] <s171C0n> if someone doesn't like it, they can always go otherplaces
[08:10] <LuizFelipe> Flannel,  ty
[08:10] <Nutubuntu> wols_,  n/p and thanks again
[08:10] <Tiradin> rm -rf will purge the directory i'm currently looking at... correct?
[08:10] <mikeyhatesms> wols seems to be the hot ticket
[08:10] <wols_> Nutubuntu: danny s right. record as image! that's important
[08:11] <tina> azul: thank's, alot I consider to buy one tomorow.
[08:11] <iradio> I just stuck a 300GB EIDE drive in my computer and the bios says it is 137GB. Will ubuntu Feisty see the entire 300GB without data loss on a clean install or do I have to update the BIOS/controller card?
[08:11] <Azul> tina: buy what?
[08:11] <s171C0n> Tiradin, it'll completely erase it
[08:11] <wols_> iradio: jno
[08:11] <wols_> no
[08:11] <finn_> what is a good way to find a file?  ls -r then grep   or something?
[08:11] <Tiradin> S171C0N: thank you
[08:11] <mikeyhatesms> but hes so busy that he can't keep up with the demand
[08:11] <wols_> iradio: you need a different ata controller
[08:11] <m1r> mikeyhatesms, what help u need ?
[08:11] <wols_> finn_: locate <file> or find / -name <file>
[08:11] <iradio> wols_: thanks. I meant to buy an SATA drive and I screwed up...
[08:11] <Nutubuntu> wols_,  danny, have been doing that, I promise ;) -- "True, I was born at night, but not LAST night"
[08:11] <finn_> thanks
[08:11] <Azul> Tiradin: rm -rf *
[08:12] <wols_> Nutubuntu: :)
[08:12] <Tiradin> alright, thank you.
[08:12] <danny> lol
[08:12] <mikeyhatesms> mir: wols says i need to resize windows
[08:12] <m1r> resize windows partition to install ubuntu ?
[08:12] <Tiradin> One last question... How do I change the flags on /media/hdb1 in fstab to be writeable by all?
[08:12] <wols_> mikeyhatesms: you also should defrage your windows drive (in windows) first. and do a backup of all important data
[08:12] <mikeyhatesms> yes
[08:12] <wols_> !fat | Tiradin
[08:12] <ubotu> Tiradin: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse
[08:13] <Azul> Tiradin: chmod 777 /etc/fstab
[08:13] <m1r> mikeyhatesms, partition magic does the job good, but take advice from wolf for your data
[08:13] <Flannel> Tiradin, Azul, no.  Don't do that.
[08:13] <wols_> Azul: what is that supposed to do?
[08:13] <mikeyhatesms> i've been trying since midnite; it's now 2pm
[08:13] <tina> azul: bluetooth for may PC, I had doubt some of troulbe with my ubuntu OS
[08:13] <wols_> Azul: please stop giving people "advice" like that
[08:13] <tomas_> saveas
[08:13] <tomas_> ?
[08:13] <tomas_> hi
[08:13] <Azul> wols_: change the flags in media/hdb1 is fstab to be writable
[08:14] <Azul> wols_: i don't care what he does with it
[08:14] <Nutubuntu> mikeyhatesms,  if your existing data is worth anything more to you than the USD 50 or so it would take to buy a new HD and do your learning there, then spend the money and don't risk your data. Or back up your data first, twice, and make sure the backups are good 'uns.
[08:14] <Azul> wols_: he was just asking how to do it
[08:14] <danny> nutubuntu: restart your pc and try again with gnome-baker, that's the one i use and never fails
[08:14] <tomas_> is from czech
[08:14] <m1r> mikeyhatesms , did u manage to partition drives ?
[08:14] <tomas_> ?
[08:14] <wols_> Azul: it's not what he asked and you made his system less secure. please stop answering anyone with advice like that
[08:14] <Azul> tina: you probably want to check the bluetooth dongles that support linux
[08:14] <Chore-Boy> hey i dont have the "NTFS Configuration Tool" in my system tools.....
[08:14] <Azul> wols_: what did he ask?
[08:14] <Chore-Boy> can i apt-get that thing?
[08:14] <wols_> Azul: he wanted to make his FAT partition world writable. nothing to do with editing fstab
[08:14] <dannyboy79> anyone possibly answer samba question?
[08:14] <m1r> ntfs-3g chore-boy
[08:14] <Azul> Chore-Boy: sure
[08:15] <Azul> Chore-Boy: ntfs-config
[08:15] <Moduliz0r> hello?
[08:15] <Flannel> !hi | Moduliz0r
[08:15] <ubotu> Moduliz0r: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[08:15] <wols_> !ntfs-3g | Chore-Boy
[08:15] <Chore-Boy> i apt-geted qcad.... lol im so proud
[08:15] <ubotu> Chore-Boy: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[08:15] <Azul> wols_: it is world writable by default, no?
[08:15] <Chore-Boy> thx guys
[08:15] <wols_> Azul: no
[08:15] <Moduliz0r> wot u on about
[08:15] <dannyboy79> Chore-Boy:  well, when I enter smbtree, my MS machine shows results, my xubuntu laptop does to but my ubuntu machine returns this
[08:15] <Chore-Boy> i got 7.04 to install from the iso i had on my windows part, i was workin on that forl ike 3 days lol
[08:16] <Azul> wols_: i didn't know fat partitions have permission flags
[08:16] <mikeyhatesms> mlr: no; i got to a point where feisty said there were no docs or files suitable for migration... i don't understand because i thought the migration toool waqs primarily to port microsuck files to ubuntu????
[08:16] <tina> azul: dongles??, what is that?
[08:16] <Moduliz0r> are you real or are you a bot?    no offense
[08:17] <Nutubuntu> danny, thx :) gnome-baker is a frontend for cdrecord, so if cdrecord is failing me (which it is) I'm done; gnome-baker won't bake me any toastier ;)
[08:17] <wols_> Azul: they don't
[08:17] <Chore-Boy> i had to apt-get this xchat.... i dunno, im kinda a newb
[08:17] <Nutubuntu> !ubotu

[08:17] <Flannel> dannyboy79: please don't paste in here
[08:17] <Moduliz0r> how is everyone
[08:17] <m1r> mikeyhatesms , that is for your Document and settings as i know about it
[08:17] <Nutubuntu> dannyboy79,  use pastebin (http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org)
[08:17] <dannyboy79> Flannel:  well what am I suppose to do than
[08:17] <Chore-Boy> i dont even know what smbtree does...
[08:17] <dannyboy79> even if it's only a few lines?
[08:17] <m1r> !migration tools
[08:17] <Moduliz0r> IS EVERYONE IGNORING ME
[08:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about migration tools - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:17] <Flannel> Moduliz0r: #ubuntu-offtopic for general chit-chat, this is for support only.
[08:17] <wols_> dannyboy79: is samba running on ubuntu box? (sudo ps aux |  grep mbd)
[08:17] <dannyboy79> correct
[08:17] <Flannel> dannyboy79: yes.  There are 1160 people in this room.  Even three lines is spammy.
[08:17] <mikeyhatesms> NO, THEY IGNORE EVERYBODY
[08:17] <mikeyhatesms> LOL
[08:17] <dannyboy79> I am even connected to it right now, thru XBMC
[08:18] <MSIGuy> I can install KDE through apt-get can't I?
[08:18] <dannyboy79> Flannel: ok
[08:18] <m1r> mikey , u be ignored even more with caps
[08:18] <firedrops> MSIGuy, u can
[08:18] <Flannel> MSIGuy: yep.  "kubuntu-desktop" will get you Kubuntu
[08:18] <s171C0n> MSIGuy, it's better to do a aptitude install
[08:18] <Azul> MSIGuy: you can but it would be a waste of space
[08:18] <MSIGuy> sudo apt-get install KED?
[08:18] <s171C0n> no no
[08:18] <mikeyhatesms> just joking mlr
[08:18] <Moduliz0r> HELLO?
[08:18] <MSIGuy> Why would it be a waste of space?
[08:18] <m1r> mikey
[08:18] <s171C0n> sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[08:18] <Flannel> MSIGuy: probably not.  KDE will work, but yo most likely want kubuntu-desktop
[08:18] <mikeyhatesms> i never use caps
[08:18] <Megaqwerty> Moduliz0r: Hello.
[08:18] <m1r> point it to your documents and settings folder worked ?
[08:18] <mikeyhatesms> was just for comic effect
[08:18] <dannyboy79> my samba server is working, it's just when I do smbtree it's trying to view the shares using the outside IP address
[08:18] <Azul> MSIGuy: having both gnome and kde in one linux install is kind of too much
[08:19] <Azul> MSIGuy: each one is space heavy
[08:19] <MSIGuy> How much is the KDE install?
[08:19] <Flannel> Moduliz0r: /join #ubuntu-offtopic for conversation
[08:19] <Chore-Boy> ok, i got ntfs-3g, now i need ntfs-config right?
[08:19] <firedrops> what's the diference between using aptitude and apt-get?
[08:19] <firedrops> :/
[08:19] <s171C0n> 500MB probably
[08:19] <dannyboy79> wols_: are you there
[08:19] <Flannel> MSIGuy: probably like 300MB
[08:19] <m1r> yes chore-boy
[08:19] <Azul> Chore-Boy: yes
[08:19] <Chore-Boy> k cool
[08:19] <s171C0n> i'm using openbox
[08:19] <s171C0n> :D
[08:19] <sTaTix> hey all.... quick question (i hope)... I have an older win98 system (celeron) and I want to put Ubuntu on it. Will my drivers automatically detect and install?
[08:19] <MSIGuy> Meh, that's not that bad, I can always uninstall the one I don't like can't I?
[08:19] <Chore-Boy> wow, its nice when things go my way
[08:19] <MSIGuy> Its not that hard to uninstall is it?
[08:19] <s171C0n> MSIGuy, yes
[08:19] <s171C0n> MSIGuy, no
[08:19] <MSIGuy> That's what I thought.
[08:19] <mikeyhatesms> my head is splitting open, and i am going cross-eyed. time for a smoke break. brb.
[08:19] <tina> thx and goodbye.
[08:20] <s171C0n> it's uninstallable, and not hard to uninstall
[08:20] <overridex> how do I add a module option so that when I modprobe something it automatically adds an option to it... I tried putting a file in /etc/modutils/ with "options hci_usb force_scofix=1" but it still loads without that option unless I do it manually... what am I doing wrong?
[08:20] <Moduliz0r> HI, WHO ARE YOU mEGASOMETHING?
[08:20] <wols_> niekie: full output of smbtree (wincluding commandline), sudo netstat -anp |grep LIST on the ubuntu box that refuses connection
[08:20] <Chore-Boy> says "failed to run ntfs-config as root"
[08:20] <Flannel> sTaTix: Most (if not all) will be detected automagically, yes.
[08:20] <wols_> Moduliz0r: stop that please
[08:20] <dannyboy79> wols_: was that meant for me?
[08:20] <Chore-Boy> says sudo wont allow me to run this program...
[08:20] <Moduliz0r> sTOP WHAT WOLS?
[08:20] <nj786> f4rbr0r^KALL3, i do not know what i am doing to my desktop i think i am messing it up
[08:20] <wols_> dannyboy79: sorry. yes
[08:20] <sTaTix> Flannel, thank you... what do I do if some do not
[08:21] <m1r> chore-boy, run it from system>administration
[08:21] <wols_> Moduliz0r: turn of your caps lock and stay on topic
[08:21] <Chore-Boy> ok
[08:21] <MSIGuy> So what's the command to install KDE from apt-get?
[08:21] <Azul> MSIGuy: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/aptitude
[08:21] <wols_> Moduliz0r: apt-get install kde
[08:21] <MSIGuy> I see tons of packages, is their just one I can do?
[08:21] <Megaqwerty> Moduliz0r: Please, only ask for technical assistance in this channel
[08:21] <wols_> Moduliz0r: apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[08:21] <dannyboy79> wols_: ok, hang on, I am new at this chat thing. i'll paste it to pastebin and be right back
[08:21] <sheep-> How do I make ubuntu think I need restricted drivers?
[08:21] <m1r> kubuntu-desktop
[08:21] <wols_> !restricted drivers
[08:21] <Azul> opps, that was for edgy only
[08:21] <Chore-Boy> mlr: its not in my system>admin
[08:22] <Chore-Boy> its in my applications>system tools though
[08:22] <bronze---> OMG! I installed a gnome theme (drag-and-drop from art.gnome.org). It was a window border. How can I switch it off?
[08:22] <Azul> MSIGuy: apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[08:22] <wols_> !restricted
[08:22] <Flannel> sTaTix: You come back here and ask.  Or try the help wiki, or google, or whatnot.  Most likely it'll be video drivers (which are detected, but just not installed by default, but easy to enable) and maybe Wifi (if you have it).
[08:22] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[08:22] <Megaqwerty> overridex: hold on a second.
[08:22] <Chore-Boy> i just ran it from my terminal.... that worked
[08:22] <m1r> ye sry chore-boy
[08:22] <m1r> good
[08:22] <overridex> MegaQuark: ok
[08:22] <Moduliz0r> I AM NOT MODULIZOR
[08:22] <overridex> err
[08:22] <overridex> Megaqwerty: ok
[08:22] <Nutubuntu> Does the network based feisty install (ftp.osuosl.org/pub/ubuntu/dists/feisty/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/mini.iso) permit setting up RAID (using md) the way the alternate CD does?
[08:22] <MSIGuy> what's apptitude?
[08:22] <sheep-> wols_: That doesn't help at all
[08:22] <haggis> i'm trying to setup an encrypted partition which i've done but when i boot my computer it tells me "Special device /dev/mapper/crypt does not exist" even though it is in /etc/crypttab - any ideas?
[08:22] <Azul> what is raid?
[08:22] <sTaTix> don't have wifi... but I do have an infared port which I'd like to be able to use... i need to find a remote that will work with a linux media player
[08:22] <Megaqwerty> overridex: lol sok. People do that a lot to me ;)
[08:22] <m1r> package manager MSIguy
[08:22] <Chore-Boy> says "click here to set mount point"
[08:22] <Moduliz0r> IM BORED AS HELL
[08:22] <Azul> !raid
[08:22] <ubotu> Raid and LVM --> very easy guide for alternate CD : http://users.piuha.net/martti/comp/ubuntu/raid.html Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[08:23] <MSIGuy> Is it better than apt-get?
[08:23] <Flannel> Nutubuntu: Believe so.  Minimal CD is Alt CD minus packages.
[08:23] <m1r> imho no
[08:23] <Chore-Boy> what should i put there for the mount point
[08:23] <Nutubuntu> Flannel,  ty**1000 :)
[08:23] <Moduliz0r> IM LEAVING
[08:23] <dannyboy79> wols_: what did you mean about smbtree?
[08:23] <Megaqwerty>  ! offtopic | Moduliz0r
[08:23] <ubotu> Moduliz0r: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[08:23] <Azul> Chore-Boy: anything you like
[08:23] <m1r> Moduliz0r, lover caps and maybe someone hear you
[08:23] <Chore-Boy> k
[08:23] <battlesquid> hey, i need to upgrade to feisty now, and i want to switch to xubuntu at the same time, if possible... how can i do that?
[08:23] <Flannel> Nutubuntu: on the off chance that it doesn't, let me know.
[08:24] <Azul> Chore-Boy: keep it in the /media directory
[08:24] <Megaqwerty> overridex: you need to put the module and the options you want passed to it in /etc/modules
[08:24] <sTaTix> 43% downloaded of ubuntu cd... yay
[08:24] <Moduliz0r> G
[08:24] <sheep-> How do I make ubuntu think I need restricted drivers?
[08:24] <Flannel> battlesquid: You could.  It'd be easier to do it in two steps though.
[08:24] <Chore-Boy> i just put "windows"
[08:24] <Nutubuntu> MSIGuy,  I think aptitude's better than apt-get or Synaptic b/c if you uninstall a package you've installed with aptitude, it keeps track of and will uninstall dependencies that are not used by any other packages
[08:24] <Azul> sheep-: what do you mean?
[08:24] <overridex> Megaqwerty: ahhh... what's /etc/modutils for then? it looks almost the same
[08:24] <dannyboy79> wols_: is there anyway we can chat privately, this is insane trying to read thru all this?
[08:24] <Nutubuntu> Flannel,  will do :)
[08:24] <Chore-Boy> oh wow, it works now!
[08:24] <sheep-> Azul: When I go to the Restricted Drivers thing it says I don't need them but I do..
[08:24] <Megaqwerty> overridex: you know, I have no idea...let me look in there...
[08:24] <Chore-Boy> sweet
[08:24] <sTaTix> another question... am I able to get windows xp shared files onto my ubuntu system over a workgroup
[08:24] <Azul> sheep-: just ignore what he says to you and install em
[08:24] <m1r> gj chore-boy
[08:24] <overridex> Megaqwerty: yep, that worked
[08:25] <Chore-Boy> i had mandrak linux, like 5 years ago......
[08:25] <MSIGuy> Nutubuntu: Thanks, I'll give it a look!
[08:25] <Chore-Boy> and i knew how to mount... lol
[08:25] <bronze---> OMG! I installed a gnome theme (drag-and-drop from art.gnome.org). It was a window border. How can I switch it off?
[08:25] <Elessar> sTaTix: yes
[08:25] <Chore-Boy> but now its different, or i forgot
[08:25] <skarevoluti> battlesquid: you could upgrade your distribution and later apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[08:25] <Nutubuntu> dannyboy79, is your data (in your windows partition) stuff you can lose forever without a second thought? If not, have you backed it up and verified the backup?
[08:25] <Chore-Boy> i dunno.... thx for help mlr
[08:25] <Azul> Chore-Boy: mounting drives hasn't been different over the last 10 years
[08:25] <sheep-> Azul: Thats what I did but it still isn't recognising that I have them, when i log into xgl its all fuzzy and i can't read anything
[08:25] <sTaTix> schweet... i'm so excited to finally experience linux
[08:25] <m1r> np m8
[08:25] <battlesquid> Flannel, i have installed the packages i want and got xfce up and running. do i need to do anything other than just upgrade then?
[08:25] <ChaosMachine> sTaTix, I'm sure theres a way to build samba on ubuntu.
[08:25] <wols_> sheep-: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[08:25] <Megaqwerty> overridex: it looks like /etc/modutils/ stores files that allow aliasing of module names.
[08:25] <Chore-Boy> well i just plain forgot then, heh....
[08:25] <Azul> Chore-Boy: just the mounting helper tools
[08:25] <Megaqwerty> overridex: and you're welcome
[08:25] <Chore-Boy> yeah..
[08:26] <dannyboy79> Nutubuntu: what?
[08:26] <Flannel> battlesquid: right.
[08:26] <Elessar> ChaosMachine: at my box it just worked
[08:26] <battlesquid> skarevoluti, Flannel - thanks.
[08:26] <alaa> hi, i'm using ubuntu server 7.04, i'm trying to load my custum console kmap file. i've replaced the boottime.kmap.gz located in /etc/console-setup but it did not work! what am i missing
[08:26] <dannyboy79> wols_: are there???
[08:26] <Azul> sheep-: you probably have the wrong drivers?
[08:26] <wols_> dannyboy79: yes. and no I don#t to PM
[08:26] <Moduliz0r> RANDOM CHAT?
[08:26] <dannyboy79> private chatroom I am talking about
[08:26] <sheep-> Azul: Nah, I installed the right ones, I used Envy
[08:26] <Flannel> Moduliz0r: /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:26] <Azul> sheep-: you can always change the Driver line in /etc/X11/xorg.conf to "vesa", log into gui and look for a fix
[08:27] <sheep-> Azul: Any ideas why only xgl is fuzzy like that?
[08:27] <wols_> !ops please turn of Moduliz0r's CAPS LOCK
[08:27] <dannyboy79> wols_: so what did you mean about the smbtree command
[08:27] <Azul> envy?
[08:27] <baconbits> Ok, I've asked in #beryl, #opencompositing, and #ubuntu-effects, and no seems to be able to help me...I need to uninstall everything compiz/compcomm related, but I can't remember all the package names.  Ayone know?
[08:27] <Nutubuntu> dannyboy79,  sorry, confused you w/someone else
[08:27] <wols_> dannyboy79: I mean it's output in a pastebin
[08:27] <sheep-> Azul: Its a script that installs drivers
[08:27] <__mikem> wols_ caplocks does not warrant !ops
[08:27] <dannyboy79> here's the netstat info, http://pastebin.com/930809
[08:27] <Azul> sheep-: if the other script worked, why not use it?
[08:27] <wols_> __mikem: he is also continously OT and disrupting the channel
[08:28] <__mikem> wols oh
[08:28] <sheep-> Azul: I had this setup working fine yesterday but I wanted to switch to aiglx so i uninstalled the ati drivers and everything messed up so i reinstalled and now xgl is all fuzzy
[08:28] <Megaqwerty> Moduliz0r: Please go to #ubuntu-offtopic where people will actually converse with you. I will ignore you from here on out unless you actually have a support question
[08:28] <sheep-> Azul: I did use the same script
[08:28] <dannyboy79> wols_: ok, did I do that netstat pastebin correctly?
[08:28] <overridex> Does anyone know how to disable the big bubble tooltips of network-manager?
[08:28] <nitro4ce> HELP!!! the advancemenu icon is not shown in the menu after i installed both advancemane and advancemenu.
[08:28] <wols_> dannyboy79: yes. looks alright.
[08:28] <Azul> sheep-: i can't seem to figure out what's wrong.. anyone else knows?
[08:29] <seanw> t/n
[08:29] <seanw> Whoops.
[08:29] <wols_> dannyboy79: telne <ubuntu IP> 445
[08:29] <stevej> I have a script that rips a DVD to an avi file. I want to put a menu option in the right click menu (on mounted DVD icon) to run the script, like the "Copy Disk" option. Is there a reasonably simple way to do that?
[08:29] <wols_> does it connect? or connection refused?
[08:29] <m1r> sheep , take envy for vga drivers
[08:29] <sheep-> Azul: I'm almost certain its some option or setting somewhere, I thought ubuntu not thinking i needed restricted drivers was the problem
[08:29] <wols_> !envy
[08:29] <ubotu> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[08:29] <sheep-> m1r: What do you mean?
[08:29] <dannyboy79> here's the smbtree info, http://pastebin.com/930810
[08:29] <m1r> wols_ i never had any problems with it
[08:30] <dannyboy79> wols_: did you mean telnet or telne?
[08:30] <alaa> how to change the kmap for the console permenantly
[08:30] <Flannel> !worksforme | m1r
[08:30] <ubotu> m1r: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[08:30] <GoldeNArX> hey guys
[08:30] <Megaqwerty> stevej: yes, a very simple way in fact. Press Alt+F2 and enter 'alacarte' (no quotes)
[08:30] <nitro4ce> stevej: using gnome?
[08:30] <m1r> sry
[08:30] <nj786>  f4rbr0r^KALL3, my desktop is looking like a mess
[08:30] <GoldeNArX> im trying to extract a .exe file in linux
[08:30] <GoldeNArX> how can I go about htis?
[08:30] <wols_> dannyboy79: telnte
[08:30] <wols_> dannyboy79: telnet
[08:30] <m1r> sheep, i used envy to deinstall ati broken drivers and then install them again
[08:30] <nitro4ce> stevej: there is no easy way to do that. you will need to change the menu source file and compile it.
[08:30] <sheep-> envy worked fine so thats why im using it
[08:31] <wols_> GoldeNArX: either try WINE, or check what archiver created that file and use it.
[08:31] <Chore-Boy> hey, now i need codecs to play mp3's... when i click the box (in add/remove programs) for the right codec and try to install it, it wont let me......
[08:31] <NeXtDaY> how to install .tar.gz file using the terminal?
[08:31] <Megaqwerty> stevej: once there, you will be able to create a menu icon through a very simple GUI interface.
[08:31] <sheep-> m1r: Thats what I tried
[08:31] <dannyboy79> wols_: telnet: could not resolve 192.168.0.3:445/telnet: Name or service not known
[08:31] <__mikem> wols_, yes, I looked at the scrollback and that Guy is a disruption
[08:31] <Chore-Boy> do i have to apt-get the codecs too or what?
[08:31] <sheep-> m1r: It worked fine but my xgl is still fuzzy
[08:31] <alaa> in debian i just replace /etc/console/boottime.kmap.gz, any hints or links on how to do this on ubuntu
[08:31] <wols_> dannyboy79: read what I typed. don't make stuff up
[08:31] <Azul> Chore-Boy: are you on 7.04?
[08:31] <nj786>  f4rbr0r^KALL3, u there?
[08:31] <Nutubuntu> Later all - and wols_ & Flannel, thanks again
[08:31] <m1r> sheep- , sry there i cant help, dont use 3d acceleration :/
[08:31] <Chore-Boy> azul: yep 7.04
[08:31] <nownott> what is the command to copy one disc to another?
[08:31] <GoldeNArX> ok and next question. is there a "front end" gui that will help me config glftpd?
[08:32] <Azul> Chore-Boy: are you trying to play the files with totem?
[08:32] <dannyboy79> wols_: you told me to telnet the Ubuntu ip, that's what I read?
[08:32] <Megaqwerty> stevej: did that help you at all?
[08:32] <Azul> Chore-Boy: or what's called "movie player"
[08:32] <nownott> like windows ntfs hd ro a blank hd?
[08:32] <Chore-Boy> whatever the default player is....
[08:32] <Chore-Boy> prolly a movie player
[08:32] <fine_device>  
[08:32] <Chore-Boy> lemme try again
[08:32] <sheep-> wols_: If I could use the restricted driver tool to install the drivers I would but it says I don't need them so I used envy
[08:32] <wols_> dannyboy79: yes. but read what I wrote. you didn't use the command I wrote
[08:32] <Azul> Chore-Boy: didn't it ask you to install a driver?
[08:32] <Azul> Chore-Boy: i mean a codec
[08:32] <Chore-Boy> no... i clicked the mp3, it opened up with this program
[08:32] <wols_> dannyboy79: no ":"
[08:33] <_Ahti> Chore-Boy: Please see howtoforge.com ubuntu section for how to get complete support of all codecs :)
[08:33] <baconbits> Probably Totem
[08:33] <Chore-Boy> yeah, its totem movie player
[08:33] <dannyboy79> ok, I am sorry. I don't know how else to interpret what you ................oh ok
[08:33] <niekie> wols_: you highlighted me?
[08:33] <dannyboy79> wols_: 1 sec
[08:33] <wols_> niekie: unfortunately. sry
[08:33] <beni> how to list my devices in the console? I mean including memory cards?
[08:33] <wols_> niekie: this channel has too many nicks
[08:33] <_Ahti> Chore-Boy: Assuming you're a newbie, it should be easy :)
[08:33] <niekie> wols_: ah, haha.
[08:33] <Chore-Boy> hehe, thanks
[08:33] <niekie> wols_: no problem :)
[08:33] <georgy28> beni : lspci ?
[08:33] <cmo-0> how to change the kmap for the console permenantly
[08:34] <dannyboy79> wols_: http://pastebin.com/930812
[08:34] <m1r> chore-boy , google _> easyubuntu might help also
[08:34] <sheep-> wols_: Can you help me with this restricted driver thing
[08:34] <bronze---> Why can't I see other computers and servers in local area network?
[08:34] <Chore-Boy> ive been lookin at a lot of them sites... just so much stuff i need to know i guess
[08:34] <wols_> beni: dannyboy79 it works. there is no ral timeout. try smbclient -L <ubuntu ip>
[08:34] <m1r> Chore-boy , easyubuntu, all in one
[08:34] <wols_> dannyboy79: if that fails. reboot both. client and server
[08:34] <dannyboy79> wols_: yes, that already works
[08:34] <wols_> !easybuntu
[08:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about easybuntu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:34] <beni> georgy28: sorry, i meant by path. I need the path to my memory chip (SanDisk imho) just like the path to the hdd /dev/hda
[08:35] <dannyboy79> wols_: have already done that
[08:35] <Azul> !easyubuntu
[08:35] <ubotu> easyubuntu is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. See http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ - For help and or discussions about EasyUbuntu please join #easyubuntu
[08:35] <georgy28> beni : df -h ?
[08:35] <wols_> beni: check dmesg when you plug the chip in. should be /dev/sdX
[08:35] <wols_> georgy28: that only displays what is mounted
[08:35] <dannyboy79> wols_: is it because I am doing it from itself? also, why is it trying thru the external IP and not the internal IP?
[08:35] <beni> wols_: thats exactly what i need, df - h thanks!
[08:35] <beni> georgy28: thank you a lot :)
[08:35] <georgy28> wobx, : ok, dmesg is a good idea
[08:35] <wols_> dannyboy79: shouldn't. samba listens on all interfaces
[08:36] <f4rbr0r^KaLL3> nj786, yes
[08:36] <dannyboy79> not according to the netstat -pant
[08:36] <wols_> beni: dmesg only shows when the disk is already mounted
[08:36] <bronze---> Why can't I see other computers and servers in local area network?
[08:36] <wols_> dannyboy79: tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:445             0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN     15337/smbd
[08:36] <wols_> it does
[08:36] <beni> wols_: it is, i just need the path
[08:36] <NeXtDaY> again: how to install .tar.gz file using the terminal?
[08:36] <beni> my question was a bit weakly formulated, all apologies
[08:36] <nj786>  f4rbr0r^KALL3, can you help me, my desktop look like crap
[08:37] <NeXtDaY> sorry for repeat!
[08:37] <dannyboy79> wols_:  I thought the only port that was listening for outside connections is SSH, port 22
[08:37] <MSIGuy> Can I install Apptitude through apt-get?
[08:37] <f4rbr0r^KaLL3> nj786, can you /msg me?
[08:37] <MSIGuy> Did I spell it right?  lol
[08:37] <dannyboy79> wols_: noted by the :::22
[08:37] <wols_> NeXtDaY: there is no way that works for all software. tar -zxvf <file>. then there should be a text file with instructions
[08:37] <nj786>  f4rbr0r^KALL3, sure
[08:37] <wols_> dannyboy79: huh? what about it?
[08:37] <wols_> dannyboy79: :22 is ssh, not samba
[08:37] <dannyboy79> wols_: I am saying that samba never did this before when I had my dapper machine, and I used the same smb.conf'
[08:37] <NeXtDaY> wols_: ok.. lemme try and let you know
[08:38] <f4rbr0r^KaLL3> nj786, read your private message :D
[08:38] <sTaTix> which filesystem is better for ubuntu.... NTFS or FAT32
[08:38] <wols_> sTaTix: neither
[08:38] <sTaTix> ok
[08:38] <firedrops> sTaTix, lol
[08:38] <wols_> sTaTix: use ext3
[08:38] <sTaTix> lol
[08:38] <firedrops> ext3 or reiserfs
[08:38] <sTaTix> dudes, i dunno this stuff
[08:38] <Azul> NeXtDaY: tar xvzf file, then read the README file.. every program installs differently
[08:38] <tondar> hey all
[08:38] <wols_> sTaTix: you cannot install ubuntu on fat or ntfs
[08:38] <dannyboy79> wols_: right, my point is that samba isn't listening for outside connections.
[08:38] <Johto> Oh man i finally finished configuring my fonts and amarok ..had to install KDE just to overwrite amaroks "default" font ..now it is nice with other fonts i use in Gnome desktop (fonts from OSX) check this screenshot and tell me what you think about the fonts: http://img475.imageshack.us/my.php?image=amarokbp1.png
[08:38] <wols_> dannyboy79: it is
[08:38] <tondar> ubuntus been pissing me off ><
[08:38] <sTaTix> this old PC won't boot from CD unless it doesn't find a boot record on the floppy and HD
[08:38] <Chore-Boy> oh, so this "easyubuntu" basically downloads a bunch of stuff.... that most people want?
[08:38] <firedrops> though u should stay by the default which is ext3
[08:38] <wols_> dannyboy79: unless you have a firewall there
[08:39] <NeXtDaY> thanks Azul.. I will try that now :)
[08:39] <nj786>  f4rbr0r^KALL3, why arnt u responding?
[08:39] <dannyboy79> wols_: yes
[08:39] <tondar> could some one help me setting up a vpn
[08:39] <tondar> ?
[08:39] <wols_> dannyboy79: if you do all bets are off. why doy ou ahve a firewall inside a LAN?
[08:39] <dannyboy79> wols_: also, can you explain why ssh is :::22 and samba is 0.0.0.0.445?
[08:39] <sheep-> Can anyone tell me why my XGL session is all fuzzy?
[08:39] <f4rbr0r^KaLL3> nj786, because you are not typing anything..
[08:39] <Megaqwerty> wols_: sTaTix: actually, that's untrue you can install ubuntu on NTFS (but it's still in beta) http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[08:39] <Azul> NeXtDaY: you might find INSTALL instead of README.. that's even better
[08:39] <wols_> dannyboy79: ssh tries ipv6 and uses it. samba does not
[08:39] <nj786>  f4rbr0r^KALL3, i am
[08:39] <nj786>  f4rbr0r^KALL3, i pmed you
[08:39] <Aerotwelve> Hello, has anyone had any luck getting a Creative Zen Vision: M mp3 player setup on Ubuntu? I keep hearing Amarok will autodetect it, but it doesn't. Anyway?
[08:40] <Aerotwelve> *Anyone?
[08:40] <wols_> Megaqwerty: you can intall inux on fat too via umsdos, but no sane person does it. doubly so with ntfs
[08:40] <dannyboy79> wols_: I don't have a firewall inside a lan, my iptables doesn't have any rules. I meant I have a hardware firewall between me and the net
[08:40] <f4rbr0r^KaLL3> i can't see anything.. you propably pmed wrong nick or something
[08:40] <dannyboy79> wols_: oh, is that what the difference in the output of netstat than?
[08:40] <magic_ninja> man, I did a sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart and now I don't have any sound
[08:41] <Megaqwerty> wols_: Yes, but you said that you 'cannot install' it. Which is untrue. That is the only point I was disputing
[08:41] <Megaqwerty> wols_: I agree with you that it is not the best idea to do so however.
[08:41] <nj786>  f4rbr0r^KALL3, can you PM me
[08:41] <Azul> magic_ninja: issue alsamixer and see if the sounds are muted
[08:41] <f4rbr0r^KaLL3> nj786, done that already :)
[08:42] <wols_> Megaqwerty: you are wrong. this is an installre for ubuntu. it doesn't install to ntfs
[08:42] <`eric-> !foola
[08:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about foola - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:42] <`eric-> anyone use foola?
[08:42] <Nalleman> Hi, I have really bad framerate and sound when I play 3d games in ubuntu. Someone knows why and how to fix?
[08:42] <wols_> Megaqwerty: I was wondering cause right now there is no support for ntfs in the kernel to the amount needed for booting. and ntfs-3g wouldn't work since it's a userspace fs
[08:42] <magic_ninja> Azul: I was playing diablo II and the sound server glitched and kept repeating the same sound like a broken record so i stopped the sound server, then restarted and now i have none (if that information helps), i'll try what you said
[08:42] <dannyboy79> wols_: are you done helping me?
[08:43] <wols_> dannyboy79: pretty much. as I said: try smbclient
[08:43] <nj786>  f4rbr0r^KALL3, wow interesting
[08:43] <dannyboy79> wols_: i did  and that works
[08:43] <sTaTix> is there a way to launch gparted from DOS
[08:43] <wols_> Nalleman: what videochip, what driver?
[08:43] <nj786> f4rbr0r^KALL3, ok now try
[08:43] <wols_> dannyboy79: so it's some smbtree bug it seems
[08:43] <Chore-Boy> ok, once i download "easyubuntu" i try to install the package, it asks me for the admin pw, and then after that it says it wont allow it.....
[08:43] <Azul> magic_ninja: if that's what happened then i don't think alsamixer will fix it
[08:43] <f4rbr0r^KaLL3> nj786, can't see my pm?
[08:43] <Nalleman> wols_, not sure. its intel anyway... how can i check?
[08:43] <dannyboy79> wols_: i don't know, does this happen to you?
[08:43] <sTaTix> may I PM someone that has a few moments
[08:44] <wols_> Nalleman: lspci
[08:44] <nj786> f4rbr0r^KALL3, did u get mine
[08:44] <magic_ninja> Azul: I could always reboot
[08:44] <f4rbr0r^KaLL3> no
[08:44] <wols_> Nalleman: you need the i810 driver, enabled DRI and installe mesa
[08:44] <Azul> magic_ninja: there is always that
[08:44] <magic_ninja> Azul: but i would like to know why that happened
[08:44] <f4rbr0r^KaLL3> join #channel!
[08:44] <wols_> dannyboy79: I don't use smbtree. never did
[08:44] <Megaqwerty> wols_: I don't understand what I'm wrong about wubi installs ubuntu onto Windows' C: Drive, and allows you to choose which one to boot at start up. Thereby making it so that you don't have to format/resize your disk, and allowing you to dual-boot with windows.
[08:44] <wols_> Megaqwerty: no. it's an installer that can be started from windows. you still need a ubuntu partition for it
[08:44] <dannyboy79> wols_: well, can you to see if it's a big?
[08:44] <Nalleman> wols_, VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
[08:45] <magic_ninja> Azul: it was alsamixer :-)
[08:45] <Azul> magic_ninja: :)
[08:45] <dannyboy79> wols_: big = bug
[08:45] <sTaTix> SCOOP = Old Win98 system (with a XP formatted HD in it, won't boot because of new sys config)... For some reason, BIOS does not support booting from CDROM... need to format drive with GParted, but need to launch it from DOS
[08:45] <sTaTix> is this possible, and if so; HOW>
[08:46] <dannyboy79> can anyone try smbtree and tell me if it try's to use your external IP versus your internal???
[08:46] <Megaqwerty> wols_: No, I am sure it is you who are mistaken. Please see http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/faq.html under "Wubi Internals"
[08:46] <Flannel> !install | sTaTix
[08:47] <sTaTix> ok, i'll try that
[08:47] <Flannel> sTaTix: try some stuff from the first link there.
[08:47] <ubotu> sTaTix: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

[08:47] <Shaneras> Hi
[08:47] <Aerotwelve> !install
[08:47] <wols_> Megaqwerty: "Ubuntu is installed within a file in the windows file system (c:\wubi\disks\system.virtual.disk)" fromt heir faq. it's NOT installed into ntfs
[08:47] <wols_> Megaqwerty: it creates a big file on the ntfs partition which it formats as ext3 or such
[08:47] <Flannel> sTaTix: if you scroll down a bit, it gives you a few creative options, depending on what sort of resources you have
[08:47] <sTaTix> bad command or file name
[08:47] <WilHelm-> I'm playing.  !gameinfo for more info.
[08:47] <wols_> Megaqwerty: basically it's a form of ColInux or Vmware, or similar
[08:48] <Shaneras> Someone know how I see if my doors are open in Amule?
[08:48] <wols_> Shaneras: ports
[08:48] <Shaneras> yeah
[08:48] <Nalleman> wols_, how do I fix the things you mentioned above?
[08:48] <dannyboy79> wols_: so you aren't going to try smbtree to tell me if it does the same thing on your box?
[08:48] <Karotte> heh, did you see the userfriendly comic: http://ars.userfriendly.org/cartoons/?id=20070617
[08:48] <wols_> Shaneras: if you get a high ID from the server it's ok, if not it's closed
[08:48] <Shaneras> I from brazil!
[08:48] <Guest422> are there any feisty repositories that have the latest (100.xx) nvidia driver on them?
[08:48] <DrStrangeLov> whats the command that shows gnome's run dialog box?
[08:48] <haggis> bash?
[08:48] <Megaqwerty> wols_: Okay, it seems we are both preaching to the choir. I meant that there wasn't a physical partition on the disk, and that the filesystem created lives inside the NTFS Partition.
[08:49] <TaJMoX> I just started using XGL so I can run Beryl on my ATI machine.   XGL keeps taking more and more memmory, it was just up to 525MB when I had to log out.  What is this called, a mem leak or something?
[08:49] <Shaneras> How I see that I got a High ID?
[08:49] <DrStrangeLov> no, i mean- alt+f2- whats the name of the command that runs the diag?
[08:49] <Johto> DrStrangeLov: alt+F2
[08:49] <Chore-Boy> hey, when i try to install this thing it keeps saying "The underlying authorization mechanism (sudo) does not allow you to run this program. Contact the system administrator."
[08:49] <wols_> dannyboy79: does the same for me.
[08:49] <overridex> Does anyone know how to disable the big bubble tooltips of network-manager?
[08:49] <DrStrangeLov> do'h. ok, i need to put that alt+f2 command in fluxbox's keys. so any help?
[08:49] <Chore-Boy> i think i need to set up my "bill" account to work with sudo or something, right?
[08:49] <dannyboy79> wols_: really, why do you think it;s doing that?
[08:49] <wols_> Megaqwerty: in this chase ubuntu does not use the ntfs partition at all
[08:49] <Shaneras> wols_ , How I see that I got a High ID?
[08:50] <wols_> Shaneras: the edonkey server will tell yo
[08:50] <haggis> bash?
[08:50] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: right.  Go into (with your first user account), and add him to the appropriate groups (admin)
[08:50] <wols_> dannyboy79: I don#t care since I don't plan to use smbtree. what for?
[08:50] <vitamin_> Hello, I have a question about partitions and trash
[08:50] <Johto> DrStrangeLov: aah..you are asking what is the command which is activated when user press alt+F2 ..sorry dont know
[08:50] <sTaTix> Flannel, may I PM you
[08:50] <Chore-Boy> flannel, not sure how to do that, do i open "users-admin"
[08:50] <lo4fer> !ipod

[08:50] <wols_> DrStrangeLov: what diag?

[08:51] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: Administration > Users and Groups
[08:51] <wols_> ah
[08:51] <vitamin_> Even if I delete a whole lot of stuff from my Windows partition, it says that the free space of that partition hasn't changed
[08:51] <atrus> nm-applet connects fine to my wpa2 ap, but not to open or wep ap's. how can i troubleshoot/correct this?
[08:51] <Shaneras> wols_ , It wrote that I have a ID and a high ID
[08:51] <dannyboy79> wols_: ok. thank you for your time. I care because what if I don't know a share that's available. and if it's a bug I feel it's the responsiblity of US to inform the developers.
[08:51] <atrus> wifi-radar connects fine, and /var/log/daemon.log seems to suggest that NetworkManager is using wpa_supplicant even for non-wpa networks, if that makes any sense at all.
[08:51] <Flannel> sTaTix: nonregistered users can't query on freenode.  But you can always just ask your questions here.
[08:51] <Shaneras> So my ports are opened?
[08:51] <wols_> DrStrangeLov: ps aux > processes.txt. press alt+f2, again: ps aux > processes2.txt. compare what's ifferent
[08:51] <vitamin_> and when I look in trash, it hasn't got anything that was deleted from the windows partition there
[08:51] <wols_> *different
[08:51] <sTaTix> im trying
[08:51] <Chore-Boy> flannel: just says  "starting users and groups" down on the taskbar, and then it stops after a bit, never opens
[08:52] <vitamin_> Anyone know what I might be doing wrong?
[08:52] <TaJMoX> vitamin_ look in /root/.Trash or ~/.Trash
[08:52] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: This is on your user that can sudo?
[08:52] <wols_> dannyboy79: smbtree errors out on all my samba servers btw. not just localhost
[08:52] <Chore-Boy> if i go into terminal and su to root, then i can open "users-admin"
[08:52] <vitamin_> TaJMoX: thanx; I'll take a look
[08:52] <Chore-Boy> im not sure if i set it up right to sudo
[08:52] <TaJMoX> XGL keeps incrementally using more and more memmory until it eventually uses all my memmory.   What causes it and how can I release the ram it's wasting?
[08:52] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: why on earth did you enable the root account?
[08:52] <Chore-Boy> this is my only user
[08:52] <Chore-Boy> lol, cuz i though it would be handy lol
[08:52] <PriceChild> TaJMoX, memory leak... :S But you might get more help in #ubuntu-xgl
[08:52] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: if your first user can't sudo, you didn't successfully finish the install.  I suggest you reinstall
[08:53] <dannyboy79> wols_: well than that's even worse, so how would you find out what shares are available then so you could mount them?
[08:53] <wols_> TaJMoX: memleak. you can't. XGL has a bug
[08:53] <Chore-Boy> i hate sudo...
[08:53] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: Ubuntu doesn't use the root account.  How did you enable root anyway?
[08:53] <Chore-Boy> im not sure...
[08:53] <wols_> dannyboy79: smbclient -L
[08:53] <Chore-Boy> but i can "su" in the terminal
[08:53] <wols_> Chore-Boy: are you running ubuntu?
[08:53] <haggis> the run dialog is part of gnome-panel
[08:53] <Chore-Boy> yeah, im on ubunto
[08:53] <Chore-Boy> ubuntu*
[08:53] <haggis> DrStrangeLov:
[08:53] <disinterested> anyone know how to use unrar?
[08:54] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: The root account is disabled by default (because theres no need for it), but if you enabled it, it means you CAN sudo (or could at some point)
[08:54] <Chore-Boy> i figured if i enable root, then i can do some stuff that i somewhat remember doing back in the day when i had linux before
[08:54] <TaJMoX> disinterested : unrar --help
[08:54] <_Ahti> Flannel: I use root account...
[08:54] <dannyboy79> wols_: smbclient does the same thing for my ubuntu machine, what about you?
[08:54] <vitamin_> TaJMoX: it says /root/.Trash doesn't exist and ~/.Trash is empty
[08:54] <disinterested> ty
[08:54] <wols_> dannyboy79: it works for me just fine
[08:54] <TaJMoX> vitamin_ look in your windows partition
[08:54] <DrStrangeLov> YES , haggis ? ah, wols, will have to try that once i start a gnome-session
[08:54] <vitamin_> TaJMoX: kk~
[08:55] <dannyboy79> wols_: so I guess I am back to the same thing, I need help.
[08:55] <assasukasse> does anyone have an ubuntu package of hamachi?
[08:55] <Chore-Boy> flannel: im not exactly sure how i enabled root, it asked me during the install.... install was a pain because i had to read off the iso on my C: drive, my burned cd kept failing during the base system install
[08:55] <haggis> DrStrangeLov: the run dialog (alt+f2) is gnome-panel
[08:55] <Megaqwerty> wols_: you were right, it must have changed since I first read the 'install.exe' wiki page
[08:55] <Chore-Boy> i had to run the install about 50 times... over the last 3 days...
[08:55] <dannyboy79> wols_:  you're saying that when you smbclient -L from your own machine to itself, it works?
[08:55] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: it did *not* ask you for a root password during install.
[08:55] <dannyboy79> wols_: mine again trys the external IP and fails.
[08:55] <Chore-Boy> so theres no telling what i did, but i can open the "users-admin" while im root in the terminal
[08:56] <dannyboy79> wols_: do you have a hardware firewall between you and the net?
[08:56] <Chore-Boy> flannel: yeah, it did ask me for a root password
[08:56] <eduhat> hey guys, i need some help. im about to download ubuntu 7.04 and im on the part where i have to pick the type of computer i have. well its an AMD Athlon 4400+ 64 X2. so should i pick the 64BIT AMD or standard personal computer?
[08:56] <dannyboy79> wols_: do you have a hardware firewall between you and the net?
[08:56] <Nicark> !java |Nicark
[08:56] <elm> Can anyone help me set up proftpd? I'm getting a lot of back and double-talk googling guides >.>
[08:56] <DrStrangeLov> haggis, yeah, you mean something like an applet that only runs while gnome-panel is up eh? well, if thats the case, i can't use it- but then i'll have to figure out whether i can use fbrun to pass a url to gnome-open
[08:56] <TaJMoX> PriceChild #ubuntu-xgl is now #ubuntu-effects  =[
[08:56] <vitamin_> TaJMoX: /.Trash doesn't exist on my Windows parition, but when I reboot into Windows, there's a folder called vitamin_/.Trash
[08:56] <NeXtDaY> I did tar -zxvf OSX3.3.tar.gz and it made a folder with the name OSX. when I go to Themes and try to install  index.them it says that the file format is invalid. why?
[08:56] <PriceChild> TaJMoX, ask there then,
[08:56] <TaJMoX> vitamin_ where is this folder?
[08:57] <Chore-Boy> flannel: but it still doesnt let me log in as root on the login screen.... i have to do it in term
[08:57] <dannyboy79> wols_: I guess that would be why then hey? how do I make it so that my smb.conf only listens on the internal network?
[08:57] <vitamin_> TaJMoX: it's only there when reboot into Windows
[08:57] <Megaqwerty> eduhat: the 64BIT AMD since that is the processor that you had.
[08:57] <TaJMoX> vitamin_ where in windows is it??
[08:57] <Bassetts> I was just making a laptop report and i get an error when testing cpu scaling: /etc/init.d/powernowd: 156: cannot create /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0//cpufreq/scaling_governor: Directory nonexistent * CPU frequency scaling not supported
[08:57] <vitamin_> TaJMoX: um, I'm not sure how to describe it
[08:57] <TaJMoX> vitamin_ c:\vitamin\.Trash ?
[08:57] <Azul> life sucks
[08:57] <whta> any way to make my gdesklets stay up if i click the show desktop button? kind of defeats the purpose if they just disappear.
[08:57] <vitamin_> TaJMox: nope, I have 2 Windows parition, one with system stuff that's not mounted
[08:57] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: that's because root logins are disabled for GDM, sanely so.  But really, the Ubuntu installer doesn't ask you for a root password.
[08:57] <loco_aullador> join #ubuntu-es
[08:58] <eduhat> Megaqwerty: allright. will this OS be nicer to me than vista. vista is really really anoying. so im hoping that ubuntu will work better. i play counter strike and many so will ubuntu work for me?
[08:58] <loco_aullador> ups sorry  lol
[08:58] <Megaqwerty> eduhat: yeah, I just double checked your processor use the 64Bit AMD iso
[08:58] <vitamin_> TaJMoX: my other partition with media, work etc is mounted, and it's on that one; I think it's P:\vitamin\.Trash
[08:58] <TaJMoX> vitamin_ I assure you, you can access it in Linux.   try searching your drive for a file that's in the trash
[08:58] <vitamin_> TajMoX: something like that
[08:58] <Chore-Boy> flannel: i did the expert install, i dunno if that matters, but im pretty sure that it did ask me for a root password, because i wanted to be able to log in as root
[08:58] <TaJMoX> vitamin_ if you're sure, then it would be in /media/hdaX/vitamin/.Trash
[08:58] <vitamin_> TaJMoX: ok, thanx I'll take a look, just one more question
[08:58] <Megaqwerty> eduhat: well, it would depend on if the games you play are compatible with a program in linux called "WINE" Counter-strike fortunately is one of them
[08:59] <atrus> all my googling as failing, as people seem to be able to do unauthenticated or wep successfully, but not wpa, whereas i'm having the opposite problem (wpa works fine, wep / open-access points fail)
[08:59] <ChaosMachine> vitamin_, uh, the trash folder is ~/.share/Trash its case sensative mind you. ;x I noticed you trying to do ~/.Trash before. its not there.
[08:59] <Chore-Boy> anyhow, im in the users-admin..... what do i need to do to get my account sudo-capable
[08:59] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: Which version of ubuntu is this?
[08:59] <Megaqwerty> eduhat: if you give me a second, I will get you a guide on making it work in Ubuntu.
[08:59] <eduhat> Megaqwerty: allright.
[08:59] <vitamin_> TaJMoX: if I move something from that partition into trash when I'm on Linux, do I need to go to/media/hdaX/vitamin/.Trash to empty it as well?  Thanks!
[08:59] <NeXtDaY> I did tar -zxvf OSX3.3.tar.gz and it made a folder with the name OSX. when I go to Themes and try to install  index.them it says that the file format is invalid. why?  sorry for repeating but this is necessary
[08:59] <Chore-Boy> flannel: this is 7.04
[09:00] <dannyboy79> wols_: can you help?
[09:00] <vitamin_> ChaosMachine: kk, thanks also I'll try that out
[09:00] <Chore-Boy> i go into "bill's" properties (bill is my account), then advanced tab, then main group---switch that to admin?
[09:00] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: no.
[09:00] <TaJMoX> vitamin_ Yes, that drive has it's own trash.   you can drag and drop the files you want to delete into your personal trash, holding the SHIFT key which tells it to move the file instead of copy
[09:01] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: go to a terminal, what is the output of the 'groups' command?
[09:01] <vitamin_> TaJMoX: Alright, thanks v much! =D
[09:01] <Chore-Boy> only thing it says is "root"
[09:01] <wols_> dannyboy79: it does work, and yes I have a router
[09:01] <TaJMoX> NextDay : try moving that OSX folder into the .themes directory
[09:01] <Chore-Boy> oh wait, thats cuz i am root
[09:01] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: no, do this on your normal user.
[09:02] <dannyboy79> wols_: so how do I fix my issue?
[09:02] <NeXtDaY> TaJMoX: Ok
[09:02] <Chore-Boy> bill@ubuntu:~$ groups
[09:02] <Chore-Boy> bill adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev scanner netdev lpadmin powerdev admin
[09:02] <Chore-Boy> bill@ubuntu:~$
[09:02] <Megaqwerty> eduhat: http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/wiwimod/index.php?page=HOWTO+Steam
[09:02] <wols_> dannyboy79: and youa re not suppsed to use the external IP. you use localhost or whatever the local ip is
[09:02] <corevette> For Ubuntu, am I safe getting a USB bluetooth adapter that will be compatible with Ubuntu?
[09:02] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: admin.  You're already in it.  What does `sudo ls` give you?
[09:02] <wols_> dannyboy79: smbclient -L 192.168.0.3
[09:02] <dannyboy79> wols_: yeah, I know. that's my point! for some reason it's resolving to the external IP, how do fix that?
[09:02] <wols_> dannyboy79: if you use the external IP it might use the external router interface where of course no port 445 is open
[09:03] <Chore-Boy> bill@ubuntu:~$ sudo ls
[09:03] <Chore-Boy> Password:
[09:03] <Chore-Boy> bill@ubuntu:~$
[09:03] <NeXtDaY> TaJMoX: ok I moved it .. should I try installing it now?
[09:03] <wols_> dannyboy79: what exactly is resolving to the external IP?
[09:03] <dannyboy79> wols_: i am not using the external IP
[09:03] <Chore-Boy> asks me for pw, then i put it in, and nothing
[09:03] <dannyboy79> wols_: smbclient -L UBUNTU is
[09:03] <wols_> dannyboy79: nslookup UBUNTU then
[09:03] <dannyboy79> wols_: also smbtree
[09:03] <jmchaffie> I have a really mundane question that I would think I could have figured out by now but can't seem to... how in the heck can I make  a desktop link to an applet in GNOME?
[09:03] <TaJMoX> nextday : that's what install does.  just moves it to the .themes folder.    check themes now
[09:03] <wols_> what does it say?
[09:03] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: try this (and don't paste it here): `sudo ls /`
[09:03] <ward__> is it possible to cluster 2 ubuntu pc's?
[09:03] <wols_> ward__: cluster in what way?
[09:04] <dannyboy79> wols_: yeah, it shows me my external IP
[09:04] <NeXtDaY> TaJMoX: ok
[09:04] <Chore-Boy> i hit enter, and it just does nothing
[09:04] <jmchaffie> KDE was nice and simple... now I can't do it in gnome
[09:04] <ward__> wols_, let them work together on calculations
[09:04] <eljak> ward_: try installing redhat cluster suite
[09:04] <arpegius> i had to set my monitor rez in order to successfully install. prior to that my lcd (dvi connection) would just go dead. now that i've got ubuntu installed, when it tries to boot off the hd my monitor goes blank, enters 'no signal' mode. what can i do to fix this?
[09:04] <xst> When kubuntu is installed for the first time, an xorg.conf file is automatically generated. How can I regenerate this after the install? (I want to completely display reset all changes I have made)
[09:04] <ward__> eljak, redhat? :s
[09:04] <wols_> ward__: both, openMOSIX and beowulf clusters are possible if you mean that
[09:04] <dannyboy79> wols_: that shows my external IP
[09:04] <NeXtDaY> TaJMoX: it is not there
[09:04] <wols_> xst: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:04] <TaJMoX> jmchaffie : you want a launcher to launch an applet?  a panel applet?
[09:04] <ward__> wols_, i never had a cluster but i'm interested if i can render faster, etc
[09:05] <wols_> dannyboy79: dig UBUNTU. paste the output
[09:05] <Megaqwerty> eduhat: the only drawback to using ubuntu at this point in time is that some Windows games don't work on it, or it might take a little bit of work for them to install, since they were made for Windows, not Linux. Everything else however you will find is much better (in my opinion) than Windows, and to top it all off, you get great support (like what we're doing here) and just about ever thing is free.
[09:05] <ward__> wols_, with 2 different pc's
[09:05] <jmchaffie> nah... basicall I have a shell launcher for secondlife in a directory... want a desktop icon to launch it
[09:05] <wols_> ward__: doesn't matter. don't have to be the same PCs
[09:05] <ward__> wols_, is there some tutorial about this that u know?
[09:05] <eduhat> Megaqwerty: allright thanks man
[09:05] <Bassetts> I was just making a laptop report and i get an error when testing cpu scaling: /etc/init.d/powernowd: 156: cannot create /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0//cpufreq/scaling_governor: Directory nonexistent * CPU frequency scaling not supported
[09:05] <eljak> ward_: yes you can install it with apt-get but for hpc i think you have to install other tools like torque and some other tool i dont remember what they was
[09:05] <Megaqwerty> eduhat: For gaming on linux, I'd also check out Cedega ( http://www.transgaming.com/ ) and you're welcome
[09:05] <whta> any way to make my gdesklets stay up if i click the show desktop button? kind of defeats the purpose if they just disappear.
[09:05] <dannyboy79> wols_: http://pastebin.com/930831
[09:05] <jmchaffie> seems like no matter what permissions I set to a link to it.. it doesn't work
[09:05] <Tron04> hello, when my ubuntu boots, the cursor stays in the right corner after the system says "Running local boot scripts". I have to hit return to see the login text. any clues?
[09:05] <ward__> eljak, i'l look into it
[09:06] <TaJMoX> jmchaffie : right click on desktop - Create launcher - for "command" put /home/user/secondlife.sh
[09:06] <jmchaffie> but I can double click on it from nautilus and do it.
[09:06] <xst> wols_: this asks me a whole bunch of questions. The installer could deduce all of it automatically. I don't want to make any wrong configurations so can I somehow make it re-generate the xorg.conf file automatically?
[09:06] <TaJMoX> jmchaffie : oh the launcher script has to cd into the secondlife directory.
[09:06] <wols_> dannyboy79: there is no answer section. "ubuntu" doesn't really resolve
[09:07] <dannyboy79> wols_: huh? so what does that mean?
[09:07] <wols_> xst: don#t know of a way
[09:07] <wols_> dannyboy79: that your dns is screwed up
[09:07] <dannyboy79> wols_: why does smbtree try to check what shares are available on the external IP?
[09:07] <eduhat> Megaqwerty: is the cedega thing free?
[09:07] <Chore-Boy> flannel: i did "ls /" as root, it gave me a list of my directories..... i did "ls /" (while already sudoed, i think) under bill and it gave me the same stuff
[09:07] <eduhat> Megaqwerty: seems really easy to use.
[09:07] <dannyboy79> wols_: ok, so how do I fix that?
[09:07] <wols_> dannyboy79: it probably treis all available IPs
[09:07] <jmchaffie> ahh.. ok. just a different setup than kde... now I see.. thanks tons.. I knew it was simple.. just needed the directions. Thanks a mint!
[09:07] <mikeyhatesms_> maybe ubotu could keep a reference of certified helpers for instance, some who specialize in installation issues, which is the most important topic in the evangelization of ubuntu, and some who specialize in gimp, and some who specialize in audio/video, etccccc
[09:08] <TaJMoX> xst : i think the default configurations are the ones located in your current xorg.conf - so you can just press enter to every question
[09:08] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: no, you weren't "Already sudod", try `sudo -i` do you get a root prompt? (exit to get out of theroot prompt)
[09:08] <TaJMoX> eduhat : cedega is free
[09:08] <jmchaffie> what is the icon extension? (instead of .ico) so I can rename the icon?
[09:08] <dannyboy79> wols_: UBUNTU isn't my FQDN, so that's probably why it didn't provide an answer section or whatever you said/
[09:08] <Megaqwerty> eduhat: Yes and No. If you are willing to get it without support, and with a little extra work, you can get it for free. Otherwise, if you want it to be extremely easy to install with support from transgaming you will have to pay a small monthly fee
[09:08] <Megaqwerty> eduhat: I also have a tutorial on doing it the free way if you wish.
[09:09] <TaJMoX> jmchaffie : you can use .png and .ico
[09:09] <wols_> dannyboy79: if nslookup provieds and ansdwer which happens to be a public IP but dig doesn't. something is seriously wrong
[09:09] <ceil420> mikeyhatesms, that'd be a good idea, but then newbies would have a nice list of people to PM and bother :x
[09:09] <ceil420> i personally don't like getting uninvited PMs
[09:09] <jmchaffie> ok... it didn't find the ico.. will change to png. thanks again!
[09:09] <Chore-Boy> flannel: sudo -i doesnt seem to do anything
[09:09] <eduhat> Megaqwerty: can you provide me with that link to your tutorial. and how do i get it for free?
[09:09] <wols_> nslookup should return 172.0.0.1 or 192.169.0.3, but a public IP
[09:09] <ChaosMachine> mikeyhatesms_, I assume you've never really seen a linux distro go mainstream. Since a lot of people are hearing that ubuntu could possibly replace their windows distrobution, this...is going to be messy. No matter what you do. :p
[09:09] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: looks like your sudo is broken.  And there's no telling what else didn't get installed correctly either.
[09:09] <wols_> Neutrinux: what is in your /etc/hosts and /etc/resolvconf/?
[09:09] <mikeyhatesms_> and maybe helpers and users could somehow be identified by their nicks, so that a loser, er, i mean a looker, like me, who comes along, would know who specializes in what, and further, maybe there would be a way to identify which helpers are busy, and which users are looking for help
[09:10] <wols_> mikeyhatesms_: bad idea
[09:10] <Megaqwerty> eduhat: the tutorial explains how to get it for free: http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/wiwimod/index.php?page=HOWTO+Cedega+CVS
[09:10] <ceil420> ChaosMachine, it has replaced windows for me :p
[09:10] <Chore-Boy> flannel: i can do all the stuff i need to do with sudo, as long as i su to root.....
[09:10] <xst> The problem is that my current xorg.conf is wrongly configured. So I do NOT want these default values. There must be some way of making it redetect all values and rebuild the xorg.conf from scratch
[09:10] <eduhat> Megaqwerty: oh okay :)
[09:10] <wols_> Megaqwerty: you won#t be able to run alsmost any games with that legally
[09:10] <ceil420> GIMP's not as great as Photoshop (but the price is right), but i can still play UT and use firefox :p
[09:10] <Flannel> mikeyhatesms_: It's easiest to just ask your question, and anyone who knows the answer will answer when they get a chance.  Repeat every 20 minutes or so, because people come in and out
[09:10] <dannyboy79> wols_: ok, can you help with that? the only IP I have registered with a FQDN is my external ip to a certain hostname and domain name using dyndns
[09:10] <Chore-Boy> flannel: is there a way to just reinstall sudo?
[09:10] <mikeyhatesms_> and then maybe a rating system could be implemented so that helpers could rate losers, er, lookers, and losers, er, lookers could rate helpers.
[09:10] <Bassetts> I was just making a laptop report and i get an error when testing cpu scaling: /etc/init.d/powernowd: 156: cannot create /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0//cpufreq/scaling_governor: Directory nonexistent * CPU frequency scaling not supported
[09:11] <bone43> mikeyhatesm: lol thats for sure!
[09:11] <Megaqwerty> wols_: eduhat: I was under the impression that is was legal...sorry
[09:11] <Neutrinux> wols_: ??
[09:11] <Chore-Boy> flannel: or can i just creat another account that works for sudo?
[09:11] <MetalPhreak> anyone got a link to a guide on xorg.conf? I wanna build one from scratch for using HDTV res output through a DVI-HDMI cable to a projector
[09:11] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: your account does work with sudo.  Sudo just isn'tworking.
[09:11] <MetalPhreak> should i just not be lazy and search through the X11 website?
[09:11] <MetalPhreak> or is there somewhere better
[09:11] <wols_> Megaqwerty: cedega is legal in cvs version amf doesn't cost meony either. however it cannot run any copy protected game. and pretty mucha ll games are protected
[09:12] <ChaosMachine> ceil420, Thats good :p I'm refering to the people that expect an open source operateing system to be as clean cut as one built by one company. Although we're definatly getting there. But also...Redhat was supposed to be the downfall of windows >.>
[09:12] <Chore-Boy> flannel: can i download something to fix it?
[09:12] <mikeyhatesms_> the room might have many other subrooms, so that those looking for elementary help were not necessarily thrown into the den witrh the hardcore geekhackers
[09:12] <MetalPhreak> actually nvidia driver support has become better in feisty... it might just work when i hook it up
[09:12] <ceil420> heh
[09:12] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: `apt-get remove --purge sudo`  and REMEMBER which packages it say "will also be removed"  Then apt-get install sudo [list all packages that were 'also removed'] 
[09:12] <wols_> Megaqwerty: man xorg.conf
[09:12] <dannyboy79> wols_: hello?
[09:12] <crocodile> I mounted my windows partition to /windows , I want to mirror some directories into ~/whatever , how do I do that?
[09:12] <Flannel> mikeyhatesms_: #ubuntu-offtopic and we can discuss this further.
[09:12] <mikeyhatesms_> anyways, that would be the best of all possible worlds imho
[09:12] <Megaqwerty> wols_: why are you telling me to read about xorg.conf?
[09:12] <Chore-Boy> flannel: thx, gonna try that now
[09:13] <dannyboy79> wols_: I wouldn't want my samba network to be available to the world anyway, right?
[09:13] <arpegius> anyone know what it could mean if booting into ubuntu causes my lcd to lose signal and the lights on my keyboard to blink?
[09:13] <wols_> cause your nick statts with Me just like MetalPhreak's
[09:13] <wols_> dannyboy79: yes?
[09:13] <MetalPhreak> crocodile: um ubuntuguide.com or something has a guide for that
[09:13] <dannyboy79> wols_: why is that?
[09:13] <crocodile> Metal - I know there are guides but I don't know what to search for
[09:13] <ChaosMachine> crocodile, Uh, like link them to another location?
[09:13] <crocodile> i've been googling for ages
[09:13] <lo4fer> is it just me, or are synaptic downloads from the medibuntu.sos-sts.com repository just real slow?
[09:13] <MetalPhreak> umount
[09:13] <crocodile> yes Chaos, just a mirror
[09:13] <ceil420> ChaosMachine, with all those Microsoft-linux "partnerships", we're bound to be flying closer to cross-OS compatibility, making it easier for your average Windows Joe to make the switch
[09:13] <wols_> dannyboy79: what is in your /etc/hosts and /etc/resolvconf/?
[09:13] <dannyboy79> wols_: well there was 3 or 4 posts you didn't answer
[09:13] <Megaqwerty> eduhat: It looks like the best way to play games with cedega would be to get a subscription. (It costs around as much as a yearly Xbox Live subscription does)
[09:14] <elm> Would there be a reason why users and groups doesnt come up? ;.;
[09:14] <crocodile> ChaosMachine:  - I want too keep the existing mount, and just add certain directories to my home dir
[09:14] <Chore-Boy> so i just apt-get (cut and paste removed packages)
[09:14] <Megaqwerty> eduhat: more info here: http://transgaming.org/subscription/subscribe.html

[09:15] <xst> What to do?
[09:15] <lo4fer> ah well, i from what i hear about amarok, it should be worth waiting for.
[09:15] <dannyboy79> wols_: http://pastebin.com/930842

[09:15] <whta> any way to make my gdesklets stay up if i click the show desktop button? kind of defeats the purpose if they just disappear.
[09:15] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: yeah.  You want to reinstall all the metapackages that taking out sudo yanked
[09:15] <ChaosMachine> ceil420, It'll happen. It will just be messy and require a lot of work. As I said, RedHat was supposed to do that, it died quite a horrible death.
[09:15] <eljak> ward_: i think the tools you need are torque, maui, openpbs, mpich/mpi

[09:16] <MetalPhreak> imachine: what sorta probs?
[09:17] <imachine> MetalPhreak: well there's some program called chooser for proprietary drivers or so
[09:17] <Chore-Boy> flannel: workin on it, gotta type a lot of stuff
[09:17] <ceil420> ChaosMachine, i haven't been a 'linuxian' for long, but i know RedHat went corporate :x I just don't know whether this was the cause of, or result of, their loss to Microsoft :x
[09:17] <imachine> and it chooses the nvidia drives for me, then intalls it, then reboots the machine, and it reboots in some terrible resolution with crappy colours
[09:17] <MetalPhreak> imachine: i just used the restricted drivers manager to install it
[09:17] <dannyboy79> wols_: can I see your /etc/hosts?

[09:18] <Smiley> can i do "update-manager -c" from the command line some how?
[09:18] <dannyboy79> wols_: I was having problem with sendmail and using a relay host.
[09:18] <lo4fer> imachine: have you tried downloading the file from nvidia.com and installing it manually?
[09:18] <MetalPhreak> have u tried sudo nvidia-xconfig ?
[09:18] <imachine> lo4fer: no.
[09:18] <imachine> MetalPhreak: yes
[09:18] <imachine> lo4fer: I'm not doing that. i want upgrades to sort my box.
[09:18] <Smiley> wait no, can i update my system to the new version via the command line
[09:18] <MetalPhreak> was there a seperate driver for older cards?
[09:18] <beni> how to reverse the lines, cat is giving me?
[09:19] <MetalPhreak> or was that ati cards
[09:19] <imachine> last time I did 'apt-get install nvidia-glx nvidia-kernel-common' and there was a version mismatch.
[09:19] <imachine> there is a separate driver for older cards.
[09:19] <imachine> and i need that one.
[09:19] <imachine> but the driver manager chooses the correct one.
[09:19] <Chore-Boy> flannel: it removed "gsku" but i try to apt-get that again and its not found
[09:19] <nownott> ok im in gparted how do i copy the contents of one drive to another terminal or gui this is a windows xp boot drive

[09:20] <Nvening> hi, i just tried to enable desktop effects (this is what beryl is called now right??) and it says they can be enabled? I'm on ATI using the their own drivers, is that the problem?
[09:20] <imachine> MetalPhreak: no not really.
[09:20] <imachine> MetalPhreak: yes I am
[09:20] <imachine> well not me, my dad.
[09:20] <imachine> i use arch
[09:20] <imachine> ;]

[09:20] <Yorick> I've got a little keyboard question; is it possible to get the linux US-international layout to work just as it does in Windows? (As in, not having dead keys after pressing an accent such as ', but applicating it in a smart way, i.e. only when an appropiate character follows it and elsewise just dropping a quote)?
[09:21] <MetalPhreak> probably missing the correct mode lines in xorg.conf maybe?
[09:21] <eljak> Nvening: no beryl doesnt have to do with it, i think it is for compiz
[09:21] <imachine> nope
[09:21] <Nvening> whats the difference between beryl and compiz??
[09:21] <imachine> MetalPhreak: i'l look into it
[09:21] <nownott> no one?
[09:21] <lo4fer> nvening: the two are merging together, so apparently not too much?
[09:21] <dannyboy79> Nvening: they split awhile back. Beryl has way more options
[09:22] <Nvening> lol, contradictory
[09:22] <Megaqwerty> Nvening: A long time ago there was just Compiz, then it forked and another project started called Beryl.
[09:22] <Filthpig> hi, I'll soon be heading over to a mate to install linux on his computer, and he has an ati gfx card.. Is there anything in particular I should pay extra attention to?
[09:22] <dannyboy79> Nvening: compiz can be changed around using gnome-compiz-manager and Beryl is still very buggy whereas compiz isn't

[09:28] <wols_> xst: you should paste what it outputs
[09:28] <Megaqwerty> crocodile: It won't crash the system or  anything, just a few plugins that aren't totally working yet. Hold on a second, Trevino is maintaining a GIT repository for CompComm, I'll get you the details.
[09:28] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: ctrl-alt-backspace will restart X

[09:30] <huzz> tom_, basically what you need to do is create a user give him read only access and then add the user to samba, with the same username and your own password or no password and thats all. When the windows clients try to access the shares they will use the user account with the read only access simple and sweet
[09:30] <MetalPhreak> DrFrasierCrane: just make sure u select the right option in the installer and manually make root (/) and swap partitions out of the 50gb space
[09:30] <crocodile> Megaqwerty: got it thanks I can take it from here
[09:30] <wols_> Olocaust: cedega is not part of ubuntu
[09:30] <ChaosMachine> DrFrasierCrane, ubuntu will automaticall install in your free/unallocated space. Just make sure you read the partition part carefully and dont do something if your unsure of it.

[09:30] <PriceChild> Olocaust, We will not support cedega here. Please move on.
[09:30] <huzz> tom_, theres no client as such, all you need to do is right click on a file allow it for sharing

[09:31] <DrFrasierCrane> or is it better to partition manually

[09:31] <nownott> wols_:do i need to mess w/ bs?
[09:31] <DrFrasierCrane> so if i select this option, i get swap + ext3 from ubuntu installer right?

[09:31] <wols_> nownott: if you want it to go faster: yes

[09:32] <xst> wols_: You asked me about apt-cache policy kde-guidance if I remember correctly but you never answered when I asked about how to interpret the output. The output lists the local .deb-file as first priority and the repository as second.

[09:33] <OmegaCenti> I was wondering if there are any articles on exactly what and where everything to deal with sound is. I have downloaded all of tldp and have been searching ubuntu.help. Maybe I am asking the wrog questions.
[09:33] <Chore-Boy> im still getting the same error, The underlying authorization mechanism (sudo) does not allow you to run this program. Contact the system administrator
[09:33] <mage> ram*2 is a solaris idea I think
[09:33] <Alvenhar> TaJMoX, I installed a chemistry education suite with three packages, and a world clock, I think. Cant remeber exactly though.
[09:33] <TaJMoX> metalphreak if he has 3GB of ram there's no way he's going to need 7GB of swap
[09:33] <mage> swap=ram*2 i mean
[09:33] <fou> lut
[09:33] <wols_> dannyboy79: 127.0.1.1??? wth is that?
[09:34] <TaJMoX> swap=ram*1 unless you're doing major professional stuff
[09:34] <OmegaCenti> TaJMoX: what about for certain suspend/suspend to disk functions?
[09:34] <dannyboy79> wols_: I found that on the internet which suggested that I put that in there.
[09:34] <wols_> dannyboy79: this line is total BS
[09:34] <TaJMoX> OmegaCenti : I have 1GB ram and 512MB swap - hibernate and suspend work perfect even with large programs running

[09:35] <OmegaCenti> TaJMoX: wish that were true for me... Mine doesn't work properly.
[09:35] <dannyboy79> wols_: I was having problems with my relay host and sending out emails from cron jobs
[09:35] <OmegaCenti> My mouse does not work when I come back from suspend. Need help
[09:35] <Megaqwerty> wols_: 127.0.1.1 is localhost
[09:35] <wols_> dannyboy79: 192.168.0.3 ubuntu, ubuntu.getmyip.com
[09:35] <Alvenhar> metalPhreak, I'm getting this same when trying to run gnome-app-install, and i'm in sudoers list...
[09:35] <dannyboy79> wols_: I can try to remove it and see if it works. hang on
[09:35] <wols_> oops. no , jsut a space
[09:35] <DrFrasierCrane> one more question - anybody using coral (compizcomm or whatever) on a daily basis yet ?
[09:35] <xst> wols_: http://nopaste.org/p/aaXMojWMC
[09:35] <crocodile> guys it's 127.0.0.1
[09:35] <crocodile> not 1.1
[09:36] <MetalPhreak> Alvenhar: hmm ok i never had that problem before
[09:36] <TaJMoX> I have tons of stuff running right now including windows XP and Opera and Gimp.  Swap used:  4MB    and I only have 1GB physical
[09:36] <MetalPhreak> localhost = 127.0.0.1
[09:36] <DrFrasierCrane> i managed to setup beryl on livecd and it works great, but seems to me that it's already abandoned in favor of this new project
[09:36] <wols_> crocodile: that too but that's beside the point
[09:36] <crocodile> -nd
[09:36] <crocodile> -nod
[09:36] <Megaqwerty> crocodile: yes, that is the better known localhost, but 127.0.1.1 is also the localhost
[09:36] <Megaqwerty> crocodile: nmap it and see if you don't believe me.
[09:37] <MetalPhreak> i thought 127.0.1.1 = the same as hostname of pc?
[09:37] <dannyboy79> wols_: that's what I should put?
[09:37] <Alvenhar> DrFrasierCrane, what new project? just interested
[09:37] <MetalPhreak> ie my hostname is mediapc and 127.0.1.1 shows up as "mediapc"
[09:37] <crocodile> Megaqwerty: well I believe you but I'll nmap anyway just to see ;)
[09:37] <DrFrasierCrane> beryl is merging into compiz isn't it ?
[09:37] <dannyboy79> wols_: what about the localhost line?
[09:37] <wols_> xst: is kde-guidance still in /var/cache/apt/archives/ ?
[09:37] <wols_> dannyboy79: let it be
[09:37] <DrFrasierCrane> see http://www.opencompositing.org/
[09:37] <MetalPhreak> both end up looping back to ur system
[09:37] <wols_> thos ubuntu.getmyip.com should be removed from it
[09:37] <MetalPhreak> but phpmyadmin knows the difference :P
[09:38] <askand> I am now using my adslmodem to connect, will this be trouble when using wlan later?
[09:38] <eljak> i thought beryl is a fork of compiz
[09:38] <BearPerson> Megaqwerty, you could just check the netmask in "ifconfig lo" ;P
[09:38] <xst> wols_: Nope
[09:38] <wols_> askand: no
[09:38] <Megaqwerty> eljak: it is, but they are merging back together
[09:38] <rsa> Megaqwerty: fixed it thanks
[09:38] <wols_> xst: download it from packages.ubuntu.com, install it via dpkg -i
[09:38] <acid-trip> ok i got my ufs hard drive mounted
[09:38] <acid-trip> but now why can't i access the drive
[09:38] <Megaqwerty> rsa: you're welcome
[09:39] <timtux> isent compiz developed by novell and beryl community developed?
[09:39] <Megaqwerty> BearPerson: I could, but that wouldn't prove my point
[09:39] <timtux> (May be totally wrong)
[09:39] <dannyboy79> wols_: it still didn't work, do you think I need to shutdown?
[09:39] <MetalPhreak> hmmm i'm getting lirc and dialog as NOT AUTHENTICATED
[09:39] <MetalPhreak> wtf?
[09:39] <dannyboy79> wols_: instead of only restarting samba?
[09:39] <crocodile> shit I forgot about spanish premier!!
[09:39] <Megaqwerty> timtux: yes I believe you are correct
[09:40] <wols_> dannyboy79: neither /etc/hosts changes take effect immediately
[09:40] <dannyboy79> wols_: guess not cause it still doesn't work
[09:40] <wols_> dannyboy79: what is your smbclient line?
[09:40] <DrFrasierCrane> timux: i guess, but now beryl is merging back into compiz (beryl branched out from compiz previously)
[09:40] <dannyboy79> wols_: smbclient -L UBUNTU
[09:40] <timtux> DrFrasierCrane, mkay
[09:40] <timtux> i dont use any of em
[09:40] <DrFrasierCrane> so there's supposed to be one and only
[09:40] <dannyboy79> wols_: returns the same thing
[09:40] <DrFrasierCrane> eyecandy project
[09:40] <timtux> there is no real use for neither compiz or beryl :P
[09:41] <MetalPhreak> well if in the future they merge and its still called compiz
[09:41] <timtux> Just eye candy that gives u headache
[09:41] <timtux> :D
[09:41] <wols_> and nslookup ubuntu returns what? paste the output please
[09:41] <MetalPhreak> install compiz :P easy upgrade in the future
[09:41] <MetalPhreak> but they might use a completely new name CommComp or something
[09:41] <DrFrasierCrane> yes, there is a votefor name
[09:41] <DrFrasierCrane> Coral is winning currently
[09:41] <DrFrasierCrane> i like it
[09:41] <lo4fer> eyecandy/compete with vista project
[09:42] <cBau> It's indeed eye candy, but you get Beryl and AWN running with some themeage, and it really looks pretty
[09:42] <cBau> I lovez it
[09:42] <lo4fer> i was just looking at that poll too. apparently "coral" is already the name for some other open source project
[09:42] <Tormentor> Greetings guys
[09:42] <DrFrasierCrane> yes, but it's also great for productivity! (at least for me)
[09:42] <DrFrasierCrane> lo4fer: really? that's a shame :(
[09:42] <KingJere> There is a practical use. Desktop zoom for the visually impaired.
[09:43] <dannyboy79> wols_: i informed you of the smbclient line, what now?
[09:43] <Tormentor> Could anyone please advice me about a program for web development? Something basic like Frontpage for the windozers
[09:43] <Megaqwerty> lo4fer: you can't forget the fact that it beats OS X as well in 'eycandyness' (in my opinion at least).

[09:44] <cBau> Philip_ Are you using Synaptic?
[09:44] <eX|Joe> hey guys, when i start beryl i get "beryl: No composite extension"
[09:44] <iradio> krishghosh: directly or through a router?
[09:44] <DrFrasierCrane> zzz... damn router :(
[09:44] <KingJere> Tormentor: emacs. just kidding
[09:44] <Tormentor> Eljak: Many thanks. :-) Will do
[09:44] <krishghosh> iradio: directly
[09:44] <wols_> krishghosh: do you have a switch?
[09:44] <DrFrasierCrane> ex|Joe: i got it too, but fixed it
[09:44] <iradio> krishghosh: you need an ethernet crossover cable.
[09:44] <phillip_> cBau: no?!? I'm new to ubuntu
[09:44] <krishghosh> wols_: no
[09:44] <eX|Joe> DrFrasierCrane: how?
[09:44] <DrFrasierCrane> ex|Joe: what video card do you have?
[09:45] <krishghosh> iradio: and then ?
[09:45] <Tormentor> KingJere: I once used EMACS when I was on Fedora, that thing was too much for me. :-P
[09:45] <cBau> ok, hang on... lemme see what I can find
[09:45] <eX|Joe> ATI X850XT
[09:45] <wols_> krishghosh: then you need a crossover cable. connect the two PCs and set static IPs in /etc/network/interfaces
[09:45] <DrFrasierCrane> right. ,me too, there is a problem
[09:45] <DrFrasierCrane> what does it say under "detected xserver" ?
[09:45] <iradio> krishghosh: you set one to to static ip something like 192.168.1.1 and the other to 192.168.1.2 and you tell them to both use gateway 192.168.1.0. Something like this...
[09:45] <KingJere> Tormentor: I don't think you'll get wysiwyg, but quanta is nice.
[09:45] <DrFrasierCrane> aiglx?
[09:45] <eX|Joe> i had it working for feisty and then when i switched to studio it all messed up
[09:45] <KingJere> also bluefish ain't bad.
[09:46] <eX|Joe> yes
[09:46] <damageDOne> Hi everyone, Does anyone know how to install kde themes in gnome so that kde apps running in gnome will have the theme. For example, I have ubuntustudio theme installed in gnome but amarok isn't affected. I've read that I can install a similar kde theme so that kde apps will blend in better. Any ideas? I've looked on google but I just get howtos on themeing ubuntu or kde or amarok but nothing for themeing amarok in gnome.
[09:46] <sheep-> How do I run a perl script?
[09:46] <dannyboy79> wols_: I provided you the smbclient info, what now??????????
[09:46] <phillip_> cBau: I'd try apt-get install <--- how do I use synaptic
[09:46] <krishghosh> iradio: ok and with this setup can I use DVD rom of one PC to install something on the other?
[09:46] <aoupi> in bash, how can I get the decimal value of a character (like ! -> 33)
[09:46] <DrFrasierCrane> ex|Joe: so you probably need to install xserver-xgl package
[09:46] <Flannel> sheep-: perl filename
[09:46] <sheep-> Flannel: ty

[09:47] <DrFrasierCrane> *followed
[09:47] <eX|Joe> ok
[09:47] <eX|Joe> thanks
[09:47] <KingJere> if thats the case use gedit with sytax highlighting
[09:47] <MetalPhreak> perl make it so easy and obvious to use but nobody expects it xD
[09:47] <froud> how can I play SVCD files?
[09:47] <phillip_> ubotu: thx

[09:47] <wols_> froud:vlc
[09:47] <dannyboy79> wols_:  you haven't provided me help, you merely showed me how to output info and then you tell me there's something wrong, do you now want to help me fix tthat?>
[09:47] <cBau> Philip_ It is System-->Administration--->Synaptic Package Manager
[09:48] <iradio> iradio: I think the way I might do that is to run an ssh server on the machine with the dvdrom and then mount the computer with the dvdrom onto the computer without one with sshfs. But maybe you don't have to get that complicated...just ssh from one machine to the other using Gnome (places, Network Servers)
[09:48] <Tormentor> Kingjere: Could do that, too, but I am too lazy for that. :-) And I wanna try Quanta for a change.

[09:48] <cBau> Philip_ However, it allows you to force a version that you'd like. However, it will not allow me to for gconf-common.... so I don't have a solution for you.
[09:48] <piglit> what is the name of open office ?
[09:48] <aoupi> or how can I, in perl, do a char->int convertion?
[09:48] <cBau> Not one I can think of
[09:48] <KingJere> good luck
[09:48] <wols_> dannyboy79: nslookup output including commandline. there, now I said it the 3rd time
[09:48] <piglit> what is the name of open office # channel?

[09:49] <Flannel> damageDOne: I think you just install KDE themes like normal.  You might need some KDE framework for configuring themes as well.  You might try #kubuntu to know thespecifics of that
[09:49] <phillip_> cBau: I'm using kubuntu - so I have the Adept-Manager
[09:49] <Tormentor> Kingjere I wonder why the OpenOffice guys haven't made up something like Frontpage and Project.
[09:49] <piglit> kbrooks: thanx
[09:49] <krishghosh> iradio: wols_: thanks
[09:49] <cBau> Philip_ Ah so...
[09:49] <dannyboy79> wols_: OK, but this is the first time you told me to put that. you must not have been putting my name in the begining so that it would be highlighted.
[09:50] <wols_> dannyboy79: /lastlog wols

[09:51] <blackkky> now after installing nvidia-glx its not working
[09:51] <Ropechoborra> Is there a way to log the wrong passwords that are given when trying to auth as root or any other user?
[09:51] <Chore-Boy> WOWOWOWOOW, i fixed my sudo!
[09:51] <piglit> Megaqwerty: lastlog?
[09:51] <wols_> dannyboy79: it's your router that does all this. it's the DNS server
[09:51] <Flannel> Ropechoborra: I think that'd be a security risk.
[09:51] <blackkky> anyone?
[09:51] <cBau> Philip_: You might check the #Kubuntu channel, someone there may know what to do.
[09:51] <wols_> and you tell your router to refresh the getmyip.com domain, right?
[09:52] <Chore-Boy> flannel: i was missin this line "%admin ALL=(ALL) ALL" in my "sudoers" file.... just had to put that in there, now i can sudoooooooooooo

[09:52] <wols_> dannyboy79: I did not do this.

[09:52] <blackkky> anyone plz help
[09:52] <iradio> rsa: chmod

[09:53] <larson9999> half
[09:53] <blackkky> but after installing it i cant run at all cs1.6
[09:53] <blackkky> its just doesnt work
[09:53] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: You can use sudo instead of root.  But again, having sudo not-all-there is more worrying in the fact that something else (who knows what) isn't all there.
[09:54] <wols_> blackkky: you haven't tol us the error "it's not working" is not helpful at all
[09:54] <blackkky> no error
[09:54] <polyneux> Okay, ubuntu is not letting me get into synaptic, it said something about sudo not accepting me as root, contact my administrator, as far asI know I didnt make any other users, but now synaptic wont even run enough to give me taht error again...
[09:54] <j6cubic> Hi. Quick question: Is it possible to have Ubuntu put installed apps etc. on a USB stick without installing it there? What I need is essentially a diff of what's on the CD and what's in memory.

[09:54] <wols_> Look buddy, "doesn't work" is an ambiguous statement.  Does it sit on the couch all day long?  Does it procrastinate doing the dishes?  Does it beg on the street for change?  Please be specific!  Define 'it' and what it isn't doing.  Give us more details so we can help you without needing to ask basic questions like "what's the error message".
[09:54] <dannyboy79> wols_: that's my point, I didn't know you were asking me for output because you didn't direct the line to me, my name wasn't highlighted so I didn't read it.
[09:54] <phillip_> ok, I try the kubuntu-channel. thanks a lot @ cBau
[09:54] <wols_> blackkky: that I don't believe
[09:54] <blackkky> wine "game"
[09:54] <Chore-Boy> flannel: i know what you mean, but all the problems i was having, with the codecs and installing things, are gone... i think they are anyways

[09:59] <acid-trip> PriceChild, i know bout sudo

[10:00] <wols_> !root
[10:00] <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
[10:00] <PriceChild> acid-trip, and watch your language please :)
[10:00] <TaJMoX> acit-trip what about sudo -i

[10:02] <gloinunit> are there any irc programs similar to mIRC for linux, xchat is really bad
[10:02] <c01100011> #Eye Candy
[10:02] <j6cubic> Sorry about pestering you, but I'll ask again: Any way of saving Ubuntu's current state to an USB drive? My GF's HDD is wonky and I don't want to tell her she has to apt-get OOo every day until she gets a new one...
[10:02] <kitche> blackkky: after your load "freetype" put load "glx" then restart X
[10:02] <polyneux> Taj: I tried that gksudo nautilus and something flashed but not long enough for me to catch it.
[10:02] <blackkky> gloinunit, google IRC clients linux
[10:02] <c01100011> !Eye Candy ?
[10:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about eye candy ? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:02] <gloinunit> do you have a suggestion though
[10:02] <Flannel> !beryl
[10:02] <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
[10:02] <j6cubic> gloinunit, try Konversation. It's KDE, but IMO it's rather good.
[10:02] <Flannel> c01100011: check that out
[10:02] <blackkky> kitche,  imi newbie what do you mean?
[10:03] <gloinunit> alright, thanks
[10:03] <xenex> gloinunit, what is wrong with xchat?
[10:03] <wols_> dannyboy79: I told you to put your short name in the hsots file already for 192.168.0.3 logn ago. I assumed you did what I told you
[10:03] <demonio> how can i mount a virtual windows pc in my ubuntu?
[10:03] <iradio> !upgrade
[10:03] <kitche> j6cubic: from the lice cd you can but from a hard drive not really
[10:03] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[10:03] <kitche> j6cubic: lice/live
[10:03] <wols_> demonio: mount? you mean the virtual disk?
[10:03] <gloinunit> xenex, i do not like the configuration
[10:03] <blackkky> kitche, ive already restart the whole system
[10:03] <xenex> gloinunit, what do you mean by configuration? are you sure you aren't using xchat-gnome?
[10:03] <mage> <3 people that leave before they get an answer
[10:04] <kitche> blackkky: did you put load "glx" in your xorg.conf
[10:04] <TaJMoX> xchat-gnome sucks
[10:04] <blackkky> yeah it was there already
[10:04] <j6cubic> kitche, what can I do from the live CD but not from the hard drive? Save Ubuntu's state?
[10:04] <dannyboy79> wols_: after looking at the log, you never told me that.
[10:04] <rsa> iradio: its read only so i cant chmod chown or gksu nautilus the hard drive
[10:04] <xenex> gloinunit, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_IRC_clients
[10:04] <t0m> Hi i want to ask if tehres a programm plugin or somethink that all connections from terminal like nmap go through socks5
[10:04] <gloinunit> i used xchat on a windows machine once upon a time also
[10:04] <kitche> j6cubic: yes
[10:04] <blackkky> kitche, yeah it was there already

[10:04] <wols_> dannyboy79: come again?
[10:04] <gloinunit> i don't like either of them
[10:04] <j6cubic> Well, my GF is working from CD, so that's not a problem.
[10:04] <gloinunit> i just installed this because it was convenient at the time
[10:04] <TaJMoX> t0m netstat ?
[10:05] <iradio> rsa: the hard drive is read only?
[10:05] <kitche> blackkky: then you shen you should have glx pastebin your xorg.conf the whole thing

[10:05] <metalfreak> keep up the good works guys :D i might be back later with 20 questions ;p
[10:05] <blackkky> kitche,  sec
[10:05] <xenex> gloinunit, you could always use mirc in wine
[10:05] <t0m> TaJMoX: a m8 from me got something he typet at terminal s5 nmap -sS 127.0.0.1 and he scanned with the socks5
[10:05] <BillyBeans> hey is there anything easier than postfix for hosting your own mail?
[10:05] <rsa> gloinunit: use irsis
[10:05] <dannyboy79> wols_: BUT again, I do appreciate you attempting to help although you were helping other's as well. again, I looked at the log and you never suggested that.
[10:05] <polyneux> wols_: I tried a few sudo commands and I don't believe they worked. Also most things in system > admin do not start, just like synaptic
[10:05] <t0m> this works with nnetstat?
[10:06] <iradio> rsa: and it is physically read only or read only by the way it is mounted?
[10:06] <wols_> polyneux: do you know your user password?
[10:06] <TaJMoX> t0m i dont know what socks5 is

[10:14] <wols_> Dark1985: BS. A tft cannot run in any other refreshrate other than 50 or 60Hz, no matter what refresh the videocard feeds the display. this is a fact. no way around that

[10:35] <blackkky> where is the log?
[10:35] <Alvenhar> MilesPrower, OK, so you start with the CD in. Is anything linux-like loading at all? Otherwise you will need to set you boot sequence in the BIOS so that the CD is read before the harddrive.
[10:35] <blackkky> nevermind

[10:37] <mrcreativity> im having problem with my ubuntu installation, it crashes everytime I resume from opening my laptop monitor
[10:37] <Alvenhar> MilesPrower... Well, when you restart you're computer, make sure you have the screen turnde on. And during the first seconds, it should tell you a key (usually F10 or F2) that you need to press quickly to get into BIOS. There you'll need to find the boot seqeunce manager and make sure your CD drive is checked first.. Then you restart with the cd in, and it should come up loading whtaever is on it.

[10:46] <mage> turned off
[10:46] <OmegaCenti> Chevyman: Yes, I have all of those by default. I was wondering there were others.
[10:46] <mrcreativity> is there a way to uninstall my current nvidia drivers and install an older one?

[10:47] <mikeyhatesms> like dalnet?
[10:47] <mrcreativity> can someone please tell me if there a way to uninstall my current nvidia drivers and install an older one?
[10:47] <mage> ootput: I think the xchat thats in ubuntu is a bit fisher price

[10:48] <blackkky> wols_,  after finishing what's next?
[10:48] <sTaTix> OK, Forget this DOS crap... If I put this HD in a different computer, and install Ubuntu on it; will the drivers that are loaded and installed from that PC conflict with the other sstem when I put the drive baack into the puter I want it in
[10:48] <ootput> mage: are you using it atm?
[10:48] <blackkky> restarting X? wols_  ?
[10:48] <wols_> `4aFkA`: cltr+o
[10:48] <sTaTix> i know windows messes up
[10:48] <mage> revvltn: you HAVE to use a kernel with initrd if you want to move everything LVM side
[10:48] <sTaTix> i am clueless in regards to linux
[10:48] <wols_> `4aFkA`: you msut be root to edit menu.lst. use sudo
[10:48] <sTaTix> just want to save myself some time here if possible
[10:48] <mage> revvltn: also, kernel and initrd cant be in the LVM (make a /boot partition)
[10:48] <wols_> sTaTix: it won't conflict. ubuntu/linux is not windows
[10:49] <revvltn> mage:  yeah of course I'd do that to, as far as getting the LVM partitions ready is that OK
[10:49] <mrcreativity> can someone please tell me if there a way to uninstall my current nvidia drivers and install an older one?
[10:49] <sTaTix> AWESOME.

[10:50] <Alvenhar> Question (Ubuntu 7.04): When I try to run "gksudo gnome-app-install" it responds that I can't authentificate. But I'm pretty sure in sudoers list. And when I try to reactivate this app through edit menu, it unticks after being ticked. Can anyone help please?
[10:50] <blackkky> cool
[10:50] <blackkky> brb
[10:50] <wols_> blackkky: but make sure nvidia kernel module is loaded before you start it again
[10:50] <stefg> revvltn: i'd use a separate non-LVM /boot... less trouble
[10:50] <rsa> how do i join a diffrent network group via samba? it keeps sticking me in MSHOME but i want to be in rsadesig
[10:50] <mage> revvltn: I'd recommend using command line and not copy/paste
[10:50] <wlfR> Hi is there by any chance a program simular to iTunes for ubuntu?
[10:50] <revvltn> mage: the problem is that Alternate CD won't recognize ROOT in lvm and doesn't allow me to proceed
[10:50] <rsa> wlfR: Amarok
[10:50] <revvltn> mage yeah I meant that
[10:50] <SleepingSloth> wlfR - depends on how much like iTunes you mean!!
[10:51] <mage> revvltn: ah, I used debootstrap to install to LVM
[10:51] <PC_destroyer> Hey guys I need help getting my pc to automatically login (Ubuntu 7
[10:51] <revvltn> stefg: oh my good, I am not talking about putting BOOT in lvm
[10:51] <wlfR> rsa: thanks for the help I tried that program but I can't get all the plugins you need to work.  SleepingSloth I want album cover and so it get the tune names
[10:51] <PC_destroyer> .04)
[10:51] <revvltn> I want root in LVM
[10:51] <saloo7> hello, i bet this question has been asked before on this forum
[10:51] <tof_> wlfR, amarok is kdeish, you can look at quod libet
[10:51] <revvltn> mage: what's that?
[10:51] <rsa> wlfR: ok rhythembox?
[10:51] <saloo7> but is there a way to configure ubuntu to use the winkey the same way it works on windows?
[10:51] <SleepingSloth> wlfR - amarok is the app you want by the sounds of it. what was the problem with deps?
[10:51] <revvltn> stefg: is root in LVM or nothing
[10:51] <avalon> Is there a way to tell my entire system (audio/flash/etc)  to output all sound to my USB headset?
[10:51] <rsa> wlfR: but its either going to be rhythembox or amarok
[10:52] <revvltn> that's my stance
[10:52] <wlfR> SleepingSloth: I just can't get the plugins to work, dunno why, there is a built in installer for extra apps but nothing happends
[10:52] <mage> revvltn: it downloads and installs debian (ubuntu too) into any old directory
[10:52] <OmegaCenti> Good place to get a list of all system variables? like $path $home
[10:53] <revvltn> mage: so you think by coppying all the dirs in their respective LVM partitions will do the trick? And of course getting the Kernel image ready as well
[10:53] <SleepingSloth> wlfR - which plugins?
[10:53] <HorizonXP> cron doesn't let me run bash scripts properly
[10:53] <HorizonXP> can someone help?
[10:53] <mage> revvltn: ideally not while booted if possible
[10:53] <revvltn> Magilla: "into any old directory" well I don't want old I want Fiesta
[10:53] <wlfR> most important is that it automatically gets album cover and names of the songs on a cd.
[10:53] <mrcreativity> revvltn: what are u trying to do, maybe i can help?
[10:53] <SleepingSloth> wlfR - it should do track names, album covers etc etc out of the box - what plugins are you trying to install?
[10:53] <rsa> wlfR: well i have all album art in my CD folders
[10:53] <mage> revvltn: doing the move with a livecd will save some trouble
[10:54] <revvltn> mage: no, I mean coppying from a running ubuntu on a regular partition. I am talking anout coppying and paste these dirs into the LVM partitions
[10:54] <wlfR> strange
[10:54] <HorizonXP> please?
[10:54] <SleepingSloth> HorizonXP - what is thew problem?
[10:54] <wlfR> SleepingSloth:  you need to install some plugin to get track names working, right?
[10:54] <tof_> wlfR, have a look at all suggestions, that what I done and finally I'm stuck with quod libet...
[10:54] <rsa> how can i turn automatic mounting off?
[10:54] <revvltn> mrcreativity: I want ROOT to reside in LVM and alternate CD won't let me get pass seeting Logical Volumes because it doesn't see a / partition
[10:54] <errorlevel> I have a problem upgrading from Edgy to Feisty using the Software Updates.  When I click the Upgrade button, I get a dialogue box that says "Could not download the release notes.  Please check your internet connection."  I am currently talking on here on the computer that allegedly has a bad internet connection.  And, installing software for edgy works.
[10:55] <HorizonXP> SleepingSloth: I can't get cron to run my bash script correctly
[10:55] <SleepingSloth> wlfR - not that I was aware of...
[10:55] <tof_> rsa, remove 'auto' in the options of /etc/fstab
[10:55] <errorlevel> Does anybody know what I should do?  Searching google failed to turn up anything for the dialogue text besides the translations.
[10:55] <revvltn> and the thing is that it doesn't GIVE me the option to set my LV as root before that which is kinda retarded
[10:55] <mage> revvltn: its doable, you might run into some trouble that falls outside of the realm of questions that can get answered here
[10:55] <HorizonXP> SleepingSloth: it works fine when i run it by itself
[10:55] <revvltn> mage: such as which one?
[10:55] <acid-trip> i guess my dvd burner isn't supported
[10:55] <acid-trip> :/
[10:55] <jenetik> et
[10:55] <mage> personally I made my /root a 512mb partition not in LVM
[10:55] <SleepingSloth> HorizonXP - ok, can you pastebin the script?
[10:55] <mage> works quite well
[10:56] <HorizonXP> SleepingSloth: and if I insert an echo "Blah blah" > /tmp/test.txt, that seems to work too
[10:56] <HorizonXP> sure
[10:56] <revvltn> oh wait I got it!!!
[10:56] <mage> :o
[10:56] <wlfR> How can I choose a program to be the first to start when a cd is inserted?
[10:57] <revvltn> I make an install with a temporary root partition all other LV set. Then after booting I copy and paste the root partition in the LV partition
[10:57] <rsa> tof_: i dont see auto.. when i connect my extern USB HD it loads all the partitions...
[10:57] <revvltn> how does that sound
[10:57] <Chevyman> HorizonXP - 'sudo tail -f /var/log/messages'  what is the error? is the script executable? chmod a+x file. is there a bang line at the top of the script e.g. #!/bin/bash
[10:57] <HorizonXP> SleepingSloth: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26025/
[10:57] <revvltn> better than coppying ALL dirs
[10:57] <revvltn> less chances of screwing up
[10:57] <mage> revvltn: sounds worth a shot
[10:57] <mage> why does / need to be in lvm anyways?
[10:58] <ensgabe> I have a Dell Latitude with swappable bays (C640).  I've been using the machine with batteries in both bays- now I've swapped out a battery for a DVD drive, and no dvd drive is recognized.  Thought on what to do (without rebooting)?
[10:58] <tof_> rsa, mm that is to be a gnome option...
[10:58] <saloo7>  is there a way to configure ubuntu to use the winkey the same way it works on windows?
[10:58] <revvltn> mage:  because that's more asthetically fitting and this way it   becomes a real PURE LVM installation

[11:07] <Alvenhar> MilesPrower, that depends on your BIOS. But you have to find where you can change the Boot Sequence. And there you'll have to cycle through the options so that the correct CD (ie the one with the cd in it) is first, and your harddrive second...
[11:07] <Chevyman> HorizonXP - *sigh*

[11:10] <Alvenhar> MilesPrower, that doesn't matter. You'll have to have it in when you reboot, after you changed the options, saved and exited. It appears though that you have never "played around" with your PC, right? Maybe you better pass on this one, and get this friend of your's over to show you what to do. Unfortunately, Linux doesn't "just work", as windows.

[11:13] <Alvenhar> MilesProwler, well, I'm gonna go to bed now (Germany, its 23:12). But just browse through the options in the BIOS, you'll find it. And anytime you accidentally changed something you don't know waht it does, just exit without saving. The PC will reboot and you enter BIOSsetup again.
[11:13] <wols_> rapter: you still don't need that
[11:14] <eduhat> corrupt: windows vista sucks ass
[11:14] <rsa> what happens when i wine a virus?

[11:15] <corrupt> eduhat, are you serious? they got some new vista machines in a computer lab and i haven't had any trouble with them at all.

[11:21] <bronze> they run standard windows.
[11:21] <TaJMoX> gormih what language do you speak
[11:21] <johnnybuoy> is there anyone familiar with running xen on top of feisty?
[11:21] <wols_> eduhat: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

[11:21] <Chevyman> HorizonXP - 'man crontab' in a term window. does /etc/cron.allow exist?
[11:21] <EnsignRedshirt> Someone in the forums pointed out some dependency weirdness: g++-4.1 depends on libstdc++6-4.1-dev, which depends on g++-4.1.  (There is a similar cycle in dapper with 4.0.) How is that possible?

[11:21] <johnnybuoy> I am not sure as to what I need to do to get xen runninf on my feisty system
[11:21] <wols_> bronze: smbtree since you mean smaba/CIFS/SMB
[11:21] <eduhat> wols_: would i select the driver nv?
[11:21] <HorizonXP> Chevyman: No cron.allow
[11:21] <kemik> syslog-ng is the easiest/best way to not spam syslog with iptables logging?
[11:21] <johnnybuoy> my problem is that this is a laptop, and I need support for "special" and "restricted" drivers in the kernel, which, it seems to me, the ubuntu-packaged version of the xen kernels do not have
[11:21] <wols_> eduhat: yes. but that will give you 2d only. but it's enough, for now
[11:21] <johnnybuoy> ?
[11:21] <eduhat> wols_: allright
[11:21] <wols_> kemik: fiy your iptables script
[11:21] <Chevyman> HorizonXP - weird. no errors in the logs either?
[11:21] <HorizonXP> nope
[11:21] <bronze> vols_: I find a lot of computers, but I cannot browse these computers in the standard file browser. Solution?
[11:21] <kemik> wols_: huh?
[11:21] <Chevyman> HorizonXP - are you sure it cron is executing it?
[11:21] <wols_> bronze: //ip/share
[11:21] <johnnybuoy> ?
[11:21] <wols_> kemik: the logs
[11:21] <HorizonXP> Chevyman: Pretty positive. I can get it to write to files
[11:21] <wols_> from iptables
[11:21] <rsa> wols_: how do i change my work group?
[11:21] <Chevyman> HorizonXP - argh.
[11:22] <wols_> rsa: edit /etc/samba/smb.conf
[11:22] <kemik> wols_: i can pipe them to  a file easily or what?
[11:22] <eduhat> wols_: for the resolutions that it asks me to select. are those all the resolutions i can use. or some of them can i not use?
[11:22] <johnnybuoy> so, anyone for a little xen help here?
[11:22] <eduhat> wols_: im still configureing it.
[11:22] <bronze> vols_: What's the command to list the content of a folder in terminal?
[11:22] <HorizonXP> Chevyman: yeah, you're telling me!
[11:22] <wols_> eduhat: you cannot use all of them
[11:22] <SleepingSloth> HorizonXP- sorry about the delay. it's working okay on my machine
[11:22] <wols_> eduhat: it mainly depneds on your monitor
[11:22] <SleepingSloth> HorioznXP - well - not the same script obviously
[11:23] <HorizonXP> SleepingSloth: The whole.... oh right
[11:23] <SleepingSloth> HorizonXP - what did you use to edit the cron?
[11:23] <eduhat> wols_: is it bad if i select one that i cannot use?
[11:23] <eduhat> wols_: the highest i selected was 1600x1200
[11:23] <HorizonXP> SleepingSloth: Yeah, if I change that script to add a line to echo to a file, it works fine... i used crontab -e
[11:23] <eduhat> bronze: wouldnt it be 'ls'
[11:24] <SleepingSloth> ah, I see
[11:24] <nielsbosworth> On the internet i've rad a lot of entries about Sonyericsson K750i being supported in Ubuntu, but it wont work for me. I havent enabled anythin new - is there something obvious i've forgot?
[11:24] <nielsbosworth> read, sorry
[11:24] <sx66> any skype users?
[11:24] <adnan> can anyone tell me when you log in as single user mode what it should say at to log in screen
[11:24] <kemik> wols_: i dont get your answer. is there a simple way to redirect iptables LOG msgs from syslog to some other file ?
[11:24] <tyler_d> hello people... happy fathers day
[11:25] <GNAM> GNAM
[11:25] <johnnybuoy> so: the xen-image-2.6.19-4-server doesn't contain firmware or restricted drivers that I need, it doesn't even contain cpufreq drivers.
[11:25] <SleepingSloth> HorizonXP - and each line works from terminal?
[11:25] <adnan> anyone
[11:25] <Stormx2> sx66: Yeah.
[11:25] <avalon> Is there a way to tell my entire system (audio/flash/etc)  to output all sound to my USB headset?
[11:25] <johnnybuoy> I want to run xen, do I have to roll my own kernel?
[11:25] <HorizonXP> SleepingSloth: Yes
[11:25] <Chevyman> HorizonXP - when you list your crontab, is it there? it should spit out an error otherwise.
[11:25] <HorizonXP> Chevyman: yes
[11:25] <eduhat> brb
[11:25] <bronze> wols: bash: //ip/share: No such file or directory
[11:25] <Stormx2> avalon: Set it as your default alsa device, set alsa as your default mixer.
[11:26] <HorizonXP> Guys, what if those SVN commands aren't being run from the right directory?
[11:26] <Stormx2> avalon: 99% of stuff will work then
[11:26] <HorizonXP> a cd to that directory should be fine right?
[11:26] <avalon> How would I do that Stormx2?

[11:28] <SoulinEther> Anybody use QEMU here?
[11:28] <tomex> how do I upgrade Skype on Ubuntu?

[11:30] <Trixsey> My links in Feisty doesn't work. When I try to start Azureus it doesn't open (but the executable works), with Eclipse it crashes (referring to Java error, but with executable it works)
[11:30] <Trixsey> Am I doing something wrong when I make them links?
[11:30] <eduhat> allright. the resolution is amazing. 1440x900
[11:30] <Trixsey> I right click -> Make link
[11:30] <errorlevel> I have a problem upgrading from Edgy to Feisty using the Software Updates.  When I click the Upgrade button, I get a dialogue box that says "Could not download the release notes.  Please check your internet connection."  I am currently talking on here on the computer that allegedly has a bad internet connection.  And, installing software for edgy works.  Anybody have any ideas?
[11:30] <HorizonXP> now, i have another question
[11:30] <johnnybuoy> eduhat, why is it amazing?
[11:31] <HorizonXP> if i'm ejecting a USB key.. is there any way to get a script to run BEFORE i eject the key?
[11:31] <HorizonXP> as in, just before it does the umount?
[11:31] <eduhat> because it is soooo much nicer than 1024x768 which was the default before i reconfigured x
[11:31] <johnnybuoy> eduhat, ah!

[11:47] <EnsignRedshirt> Any dpkg experts here?  Does the --ignore-depends=package option mean that if I give the command 'dpkg -i --ignore-depends=dep_package newpackage.deb', it will allow newpackage.deb to be installed even if dep_package is not?
[11:47] <astomper> petr4, oh, thats different

[11:54] <bendavis78> Wow.  I just installed ubuntu on my laptop (previously gentoo), and I must say, it rocks..  I love having everything just work "out of the box" :-P
[11:54] <bendavis78> One thing I noticed though, is that it's not showing the boot screen when it boots up.
[11:55] <bendavis78> I have to hit ctrl+alt+F<something> to see anything happening
[11:55] <punsad> my xubuntu install is screwed up.  Is there a way to re-install it without having to reinstall ubuntu.  The problem was that I apt-get install various bits and pieces of xfce instead of just installing xubunu-desktop.  Now when I start XFCE - the panels are all screwed up.  THere's no wm.
