[12:26] <iMilad> Hello everybody. I have got 3 hard drives on /dev/sda and /dev/hda and /dev/hdb with ubuntu already installed on sda! I tried to install windows xp on the second hard drive to have a dual boot and i expected to lose Grub cause i thought windows would overwrite the MBR. But now that i've installed windows, i still see Grub menu with no sign of Windows. I tried to add it manually to menu.list but I think both of /dev/sda and /dev/hda will be (hd0,0) according t
[12:27] <Elliot_M> how do i do that?
[12:27] <aliasrush> petr4: now if I edit the fstab how will it work if I connect many usb drives?
[12:27] <epp> its like its trying to use the opensource ati drivers...

[12:27] <Kornholijo> epp: fglrx is opensource :P?
[12:27] <petr4> aliasrush, well, I would recommend adding line to fstab "/dev/something /media/somewhere defaults,perm=777"
[12:27] <Rob2687> i wish it was

[12:27] <Kornholijo> epp: well try to get the XFree86-DRI

[12:42] <ice799> Hi - I just modified my /etc/crontab using vim (and not using crontab -e) -- how do I get crond to use the newly updated crontab file? Is it simply /etc/init.d/crontab restart
[12:42] <petr4> aliasrush, i do not understand how it is possible but it is good
[12:43] <Nutubuntu> ajmorris_,  if you're hand-coding, bluefish is very attractive. If you're looking for a WYSIWYG editor, Nvu comes to mind.
[12:43] <petr4> aliasrush, thanks for reporting back with results
[12:43] <monkeyBox> ds0n, what's the program name? How do I add it to my system-tray?
[12:43] <aliasrush> well I think it took on the permissions of what I tried setting it to previously under a different label

[12:44] <ice799> Hi - I just modified my /etc/crontab using vim (and not using crontab -e) -- how do I get crond to use the newly updated crontab file? Is it simply /etc/init.d/crontab restart
[12:45] <aliasrush> petr4: so the best workaround is give different labels to all usb drives that will be connected to the system and add a line in the fstab to automount?
[12:46] <petr4> aliasrush, if you are able to mount them r/w without touching fstab, then do not edit it
[12:47] <petr4> aliasrush, did you need to edit the fstab in order to read-write the disks?
[12:47] <monkeyBox> ds0n,  how do I get that on my taskbar?  Is it an applet or something that shows up in the system tray
[12:48] <ds0n> monkeyBox, are you running feisty.. yes?
[12:48] <monkeyBox> I see a "Network Monitor" applet but it's not the same thign
[12:48] <aliasrush> petr4: no all I did was change owner then change volume label using sudo... and somehow it worked
[12:48] <monkeyBox> ds0n, not sure..  how do I check
[12:48] <aliasrush> petr4: let me ask you do you do backups of your system?
[12:48] <WaxyFresh> can someone please help with this?i think its really simple/quick!http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2863493#post2863493
[12:49] <petr4> aliasrush, no, i pray instead
[12:50] <petr4> aliasrush, then do not edit fstab. At least i would not do it.
[12:50] <aliasrush> petr4: wow... yeah... I am tired of that takes too much energy so i am trying to feel safer by using an external usb hard drive for automatic backups
[12:51] <Warcaptain> Is there a version of Ubuntu for mobile devices?
[12:51] <aliasrush> petr4: yeah I have already edited mine numerous times... but I know you can really muff up your system
[12:51] <petr4> aliasrush, there is a lot of backuping options for linux. but needs some research to pick the correct one
[12:52] <aliasrush> I have screwed things up royally before
[12:52] <krznpsk> i've just added an IDE dvd-r drive and it didn't mount on boot.  is there another step i have to take?
[12:52] <Nutubuntu> krznpsk,  was there any media in it on boot?
[12:52] <aliasrush> yeah... you have any opinions on using usb hard drives to do backups
[12:52] <krznpsk> nutubuntu: no
[12:52] <aliasrush> it seams cheap and easy
[12:52] <monkeyBox> how do I tell what version of ubuntu I have
[12:52] <clouder`grr> what's the 'U' key in terms of pressing U+00C9
[12:53] <Nutubuntu> krznpsk,  if there isn't anything to mount ... it won't mount
[12:53] <petr4> aliasrush, I recall my server has software raid in mirror mode
[12:53] <ralph>  I just erased a file containing a days work (by my favourite method: tar cvf list of files to tar).  Can I recover this file?  As in recover its state as of a few moments ago.  If not how do I recover its state as of yesterday?
[12:53] <krznpsk> nutubuntu: maybe i'm using the wrong terminology... i think ubuntu has not detected the drive at all
[12:53] <Nutubuntu> krznpsk,  what happens when you insert a cd or dvd?
[12:54] <petr4> aliasrush, I mean backing up over network
[12:54] <aliasrush> aliasrush: ummm.... that seems too expensive for my desktop system (laptop more specifically)
[12:54] <krznpsk> nutubuntu: nothing.  also, when i open Places > Computer, my other cd-rom drive is listed, but not the new one
[12:54] <petr4> aliasrush, backing up on removable media is boring
[12:54] <aliasrush> petr4: why is that?
[12:55] <petr4> aliasrush, well you have to do manual work
[12:55] <Nutubuntu> krznpsk, sounds like you're right; the drive isn't being seen. Check cabling? Swap for known-working drive? Verify that drive works in another computer?
[12:55] <_Ahti> petr4: Where do you backup then?
[12:55] <petr4> aliasrush, if you have notebook you may be used to
[12:56] <NeoGeo64> help... every time i play postal 2 my swap space goes up by another 32mb... im up to 300/900mb swap used... is this going to continue and ill run out of swap and ill have to reboot
[12:56] <krznpsk> nutubuntu: ok, the drive seems to be powered (the eject button works) but the cable might be bad.  i will swap cables with known working.  thanks, be back later if i have more problems :)
[12:56] <aliasrush> petr4: if you are saying cds, dvds and the like... they all seem too inconvenient for regular backing up
[12:56] <petr4> aliasrush, there is always some spare computer. spare disk and spare room space is more rare
[12:56] <aliasrush> petr4: if I have a notebook I may be used to what?
[12:56] <petr4> aliasrush, yeah, cds etc are out of question
[12:57] <m1r> use tape backup :)
[12:57] <petr4> aliasrush, of course. you need only network
[12:57] <aliasrush> petr4: so use a spare computer over a network?
[12:57] <Warcaptain> So...
[12:57] <Warcaptain> Anyone want to take a stab at my question?
[12:57] <aliasrush> petr4: you don't like the idea of using a usb hard drive?
[12:57] <petr4> _Ahti, i do software raid with mirroring for server. otherwise i store things on network
[12:58] <m1r> shoot warcaptain
[12:58] <NeoGeo64> Can anyone answer my question?
[12:58] <jlulian38> o_O
[12:58] <Nutubuntu> alias !ask

[12:58] <Warcaptain> Is there a version of Ubuntu designed to run on mobile devices (such as portable media players)?
[12:58] <Dewi> wow
[12:58] <Dewi> when did this chan get so big?
[12:58] <NeoGeo64> help... every time i play postal 2 my swap space goes up by another 32mb... im up to 300/900mb swap used... is this going to continue and ill run out of swap and ill have to reboot
[12:58] <m1r> warcaptain, dont know, but sure u can oput it on usb stick
[12:59] <monkeyBox> ds0n,  I found nm-applet, but it's not showing wireless signal information.
[12:59] <m1r> and on PS3
[12:59] <petr4> aliasrush, i have one, but it is always in drawer and it is not reliable (power suply issues)
[12:59] <mage> NeoGeo64: errrr so the only way you know this is a problem is because the number goes up
[12:59] <mage> NeoGeo64: nothing else?
[12:59] <Nutubuntu> aliasrush,  have you looked at rdiff-backup?
[12:59] <Warcaptain> m1r: I am designing a prototype handheld media player and I can't well design a media player you need a USB stick to run ;)
[12:59] <NeoGeo64> mage: yeah... the swap file is getting more and more used up.. will i have to reboot once its all used
[01:00] <m1r> i c warcaptain
[01:00] <NeoGeo64> every time i play the game another 30-50mb is used
[01:00] <m1r> warcaptain, u could try use some ripoff version
[01:00] <petr4> aliasrush and still is easier to find command in my prompt and send the files over network
[01:00] <Warcaptain> hMN
[01:00] <Warcaptain> It seems there is work in progress for an embedded ubuntu
[01:00] <Warcaptain> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EmbeddedUbuntu
[01:00] <Dewi> NeoGeo64: are there processes hanging around using the memory?
[01:00] <mage> NeoGeo64: reboot when it crashes
[01:00] <jabickett52> Hello, how do you unzip all zip files in a folder using the unzip command? I'm used to unzip *.zip but that doesn't seem to be working for me
[01:01] <m1r> let me check
[01:01] <mage> NeoGeo64: might not actually be a problem
[01:01] <m1r> warcaptain, u designing hardware ? :P
[01:01] <aliasrush> petr4: would you recommend buying a networked hard drive to do backups?
[01:01] <NeoGeo64> Dewi: no. its just the game uses alot of ram... and it eats into swap and more swap gets used every time.. will that continue and ill run out and have to reboot? what happens when the entire swap file is used?
[01:01] <petr4> aliasrush, i do not know
[01:01] <mage> NeoGeo64: you need to look at the ram and swap at the same time
[01:01] <petr4> aliasrush. i have computers for that
[01:02] <Nutubuntu> aliasrush,  you *could* back up to an external hd; probably less expensive
[01:02] <jabickett52> anyone knows anything but the unzip command?
[01:02] <jabickett52> the man page was little help :/
[01:02] <petr4> Nutubuntu, but not as confortable as network
[01:02] <mage> what are you trying to do?
[01:02] <NeoGeo64> i have plenty of ram free right now (300mb) i only eat into swap when i play the memory intensive game
[01:03] <Trixsey> My links are not working (http://www.mathbin.net/11542)! Any ideas!?
[01:03] <Dewi> NeoGeo64: right but it should not still be using swap after it has terminated
[01:03] <NeoGeo64> im wondering if the game will eventually fill the swap partition and my computer will grind to a halt, or does linux overwrite things in swap as needed, so it never runs out of swap space per se?
[01:03] <aliasrush> Nutubuntu: would you recommend only doing backups to the hard drive and not using it for anything else?... lets say I partition the drive a few times to use some of it for storage
[01:03] <Dewi> NeoGeo64: it would be very unusual for linux these days to "lose" memory
[01:03] <Nutubuntu> petr4,  I don't see why not ... there was an interesting write-up (using rdiff-backup) here: http://ilari.scheinin.fidisk.fi/mac-rdiff-backup/
[01:04] <WaxyFresh> ahhh!!!can someone help me fix this simple problem?http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2863493#post2863493
[01:04] <NeoGeo64> I don't think it's using swap, but it's still in swap, is it supposed to clear out when the process is finished?
[01:04] <Dewi> NeoGeo64: absolutely... unless there is some process hanging around still owning that memory, it will be reused by linux as needed
[01:04] <aliasrush> Nutubuntu: or should I use the hd exclusively for backups?
[01:04] <mage> http://pastebin.com/930996 <-- NeoGeo64
[01:04] <vero> Hola alguien me puede decir donde encontrar rooms para el gsnes9x graias
[01:04] <Dewi> NeoGeo64: but don't assume that linux will aggressively *clear* memory straight away
[01:04] <jesus> espaol?
[01:04] <petr4> NeoGeo64: kernell will start swap a lot. then application will fail to do work because of memory and after that (if you system is blocked -very rare) kerlnel starts to kill processes
[01:04] <Dewi> NeoGeo64: linux doesn't do anything until it has a reason to
[01:05] <Nutubuntu> Well, aliasrush, I'd worry if my backups were on the same drive as anything I used regularly. The point is to put them elsewhere -- offsite in an ideal world
[01:05] <Dewi> NeoGeo64: but if it really is using more and more each time you need to check for dead processes hanging around and kill them
[01:05] <Dewi> NeoGeo64: maybe you still have like 4 fragments of the game running?
[01:05] <Nutubuntu> redundant, iow
[01:05] <marfeath> I'm trying to get ati working on another computer, and I'm having trouble getting opengl support.  the opengl renderer string keeps saying Mesa Glx Indirect after I install the official ati driver.  Is there a reason this keeps reverting to this?
[01:05] <NeoGeo64> no, the game process has terminated.
[01:05] <aliasrush> Nutubuntu: yeah thats what I was figuring

[01:06] <Nutubuntu> I'm building a Feisty box using the network-install at http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/ubuntu/dists/feisty/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/ and it seems to be hanging at "6% complete" on the Select & Install Software section. How to troubleshoot?
[01:10] <aliasrush> Nutubuntu: what would you recommend for a laptop ubuntu system that needs regular backup of files?
[01:10] <blood> how can i change my computers name?
[01:10] <Nutubuntu> aliasrush,  does the laptop have usb? (Probably "yes" unless it's awfully old, but ...)
[01:10] <petr4> Nutubuntu, i would rather prefer to have backups out of reach of my computer. ideally physically
[01:10] <NeoGeo64> mage: thats my free -m output
[01:10] <Nutubuntu> petr4,  I agree
[01:10] <WaxyFresh> ahhh!!!can someone help me fix this simple problem?http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2863493#post2863493
[01:10] <aliasrush> Nutubuntu: yes it does
[01:10] <BenHelfman> I have installed Ubuntu on a sony vaio laptop and the install is hung after uncompressing linus...Ok, booting the kernel.
[01:10] <Nutubuntu> I'd think about an external HD then, aliasrush, and look at that rdiff script at http://ilari.scheinin.fidisk.fi/mac-rdiff-backup/
[01:10] <Nutubuntu> That would be relatively inexpensive and easily done
[01:10] <aliasrush> Nutubuntu: I appreciate your opinion... thank you
[01:10] <aliasrush> zylche and petr4: also thanks for all your help
[01:10] <zylche> No problem
[01:10] <mage> NeoGeo64: it really doesn't seem like an actual problem
[01:10] <petr4> <aliasrush, i was glad to help
[01:10] <NeoGeo64> but why would linux still report  X amount of swap used after the process has finished using the swap?
[01:10] <petr4> good bye everyone. and good night if you are in my timezone
[01:10] <robdeman> folks - my sound support (ALSA) on Ubuntu broke and now it crashes Gnome right after login - is there any way to simplye diable audio/ALSA? I dont need audio I just need Gnome
[01:10] <mage> NeoGeo64: running the game just coaxed stuff into swap, and its not unswapped because its probably allocated ram thats doing nothing
[01:10] <Nutubuntu> be well petr4
[01:10] <mage> for example, new hardware handlers
[01:10] <blood> does any1 tell me how to change the name of my computer?
[01:10] <blood> can any1*
[01:11] <NeoGeo64> so that doesn't make it unavailable again forever to other processes who need it in the future (the swap space)
[01:11] <TaJMoX> blood : edit your /ect/hostname
[01:11] <mage> NeoGeo64: if it really bothers you, swapoff (swap partition) swapon (swap partition)
[01:11] <mage> :)
[01:11] <NeoGeo64> whats that do
[01:11] <mage> well its the worst thing I've suggested someone do
[01:11] <blood> thx TaJ
[01:11] <mage> hehehehe
[01:11] <mage> NeoGeo64: turns swap off, which unswaps everything in swap back to ram
[01:12] <mage> then you re enable it
[01:12] <NeoGeo64> oh that doesnt sound very good lol
[01:12] <mage> voila no swap in use
[01:12] <NeoGeo64> i think 512mb isnt enough for ubuntu
[01:12] <NeoGeo64> you need at least 2 gigs
[01:12] <Nutubuntu> NeoGeo64,  note the part about "unswaps EVERYTHING back to RAM"
[01:12] <hasardeur> does anyone know what "caught signal 4" means when an x server crashes?
[01:12] <TaJMoX> NeoGeo64 : I have Windows XP, Beryl, GIMP, Opera running on 1GB of ram.   0 swap used.

[01:12] <Elliot_M> How can i install VMWARE PLAYER
[01:12] <Elliot_M> ???
[01:12] <NeoGeo64> Yeah, but none of you are gaming.

[01:13] <TaJMoX> 1GB
[01:13] <NeoGeo64> well if postal 2 continues to eat more swap remains to be seen, i think it will

[01:13] <SlimeyPete> Shaneras: what do you want to know about it?
[01:13] <mage> NeoGeo64: its slightly more game optimized than it was before :)
[01:13] <BenHelfman> can anyone help with install problems.  My install stalls after the splash screen, everything loads ok, loading essential drivers, mounting root file system etc, but then it hangs after that at a screen that reads "Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel."
[01:14] <charleseddy> elliot:  type in a terminal, sudo apt-get install vmware-player
[01:14] <NeoGeo64> Yeah, I remember the days of Mandrake 8.x
[01:14] <mage> NeoGeo64: used in -/+ buffers/cache and swap colums
[01:14] <m1r> windows =? a virus with mouse support ?
[01:14] <TaJMoX> almost everything in windows is done in swap ("virtual memmory")
[01:14] <Elliot_M> VMware player ne 1?

[01:16] <m1r> shanereas , can u check under system > administration ?
[01:16] <blood> to change computer name in ubuntu - system admin networking, general tab.

[01:17] <NeoGeo64> so im sure that helps it
[01:17] <Shaneras> mlr: what I have to do??
[01:17] <dbzdeath[lappy] > NeoGeo64: what's wrong with 60fps?
[01:17] <Elliot_M> it says it probing an unused private subnet
[01:17] <NeoGeo64> dbzdeath[lappy] , nothing. i was just pointing out im not playing anything recent

[01:22] <Shaneras> mlr: Don't have any install
[01:22] <NeoGeo64> Jordan: Your processor is too fast for Linux
[01:22] <DjViper> foso: ah, well you could use ndiswrapper then, if fwcutter is giving you trouble, its an alternate driver
[01:22] <blood> when i try to turn off my pc i only get the option to switch user log lock screen and hibernate, can any1 tell me why this is and how i can change it?
[01:22] <Jordan-> NeoGeo64..any ideas?
[01:22] <Elliot_M> ok
[01:22] <m1r> shaneras , iare u runing from livecd ?
[01:22] <DjViper> foso: I have that card-type too, and I use ndis
[01:22] <NeoGeo64> Jordan: Get a slower processor or Install Windows VIsta
[01:22] <Elliot_M> wait what do you use for a remote connection ?
[01:22] <blood> me no
[01:22] <NeoGeo64> j/k

[01:22] <m1r> shaneras, what version of ubuntu u installing ?
[01:22] <blood> i changed my login screen optionds
[01:23] <Shaneras> 7.04
[01:23] <charleseddy> elliot_m:  this page should be a good one to get you started.  http://www.vmware.com/support/pubs/server_pubs.html
[01:23] <nivekc1> how would i o about copying a dvd movie on ubuntu
[01:23] <DjViper> foso: okay, I had some trouble getting it to work at first too, you should try to remove all trace of both ndis and fwcutter, before trying to reinstall either of them
[01:23] <Elliot_M> what do you use ?
[01:23] <m1r> shaneras , did u boot from live cd ?
[01:23] <TaJMoX> blood : type this in terminal:  echo $DISPLAY
[01:23] <DjViper> foso: there are a lot of tutorials for this on the ubuntu forums
[01:23] <ihateusernames> hi, my wifi driver works, and i can connect to my network, but sometimes even when im connected my internet doesnt work, any ideas?
[01:23] <Shaneras> noo I cought in the internet
[01:23] <DjViper> foso: I
[01:23] <m1r> shaneras
[01:24] <ralph>  I just erased a file containing a days work (by my favourite method: tar cvf list of files to tar).  Can I recover this file?  As in recover its state as of a few moments ago.  If not how do I recover its state as of yesterday?
[01:24] <m1r> wait 1 min
[01:24] <blood> responds 0.0
[01:24] <charleseddy> elliot_m:  I don't use virtual servers, but to remote desktop all you really need is TSC (terminal services client--linux) or RDC (remote desktop client--windows).  In ubuntu, TSC can be fournd in applications --> internet
[01:24] <Shaneras> mlr: yeah
[01:24] <Shaneras> mlr: ok
[01:25] <Cal__> hi there, someone can help me with a little issue?
[01:25] <charleseddy> elliot_m:  you should also remember the basic rule of thumb, before you begin, that all RDC connections (including VNC) need firewalls to be down; otherwise, the ports they use won't be open.
[01:25] <charleseddy> cal___: we can try.  shoot.
[01:25] <m1r> shaneras , dl from here and burn ISO to cd , http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[01:25] <blood> didnt fix it TaJ
[01:25] <ihateusernames> any ideas about my wifi?
[01:25] <Shaneras> mlr: I do this
[01:25] <user_> #freenet-refs
[01:26] <Elliot_M> how can i disable a firewall on ubuntu?
[01:26] <foso> DjViper thanks for the help, ill give it a shot
[01:26] <Shaneras> I did* this
[01:26] <Cal__> im using a adsl connection with a moden in router mode, but i cant seem to connect in ubuntu
[01:26] <m1r> shaneras , so u have live cd ?
[01:26] <nivekc1> is there a "media center" type program for ubuntu?
[01:26] <Shaneras> Yeah
[01:26] <m1r> are z runing live cd now ?
[01:26] <m1r> z = you ?
[01:26] <charleseddy> ihateusernames: i would guess the network before the wifi
[01:26] <Shaneras> mlr : If you don't have the CD you can't install!! xD
[01:27] <DjViper> ihateusernames: dns-server problems maybe?
[01:27] <Shaneras> mlr: No , I put in HD
[01:27] <m1r> u will have to explain bit more shaneras
[01:27] <DjViper> nivekc1: mythtv
[01:27] <ihateusernames> yea but in windows it works perfect
[01:27] <blood> is there a terminal command for restart?
[01:27] <ihateusernames> i have to encryption on the wifi netwrk or any kind of security
[01:27] <wimpies> does anybody know if there is a 2.2.1 package for Openoffice around ?
[01:27] <ihateusernames> so idk why there would be random outages
[01:28] <m1r> u put, live CD and it DONT have install option , shaneras ?
[01:28] <DjViper> blood: shutdown -r now
[01:28] <nivekc1> how do i get it?
[01:28] <Shaneras> mlr: Let's to talk in the private window??
[01:28] <m1r> ok np , call me
[01:28] <Stoffer> how do I set the default movie player?  Using nautilus to right click on it and choose open with... only works that time.  It doesn't reset the default to whatever application I just chose...  That seems to be the only solution in the forums
[01:28] <charleseddy> elliot_m: By default, ubuntu takes an all-ports-blocked stance, but the client machine is the one you should worry about.  ubuntu will make a firewall exception for TSC, but the one you're connecting to needs to have the firewall down.
[01:28] <DjViper> something tells me blood will quit with a nifty ping timeout soon :P
[01:29] <ralph> Can just erased file be recovered? (ubuntu 6.10) (a days work)
[01:29] <ihateusernames> and about the DNS, its from my router and its DHCP so theres nt to configure
[01:29] <Elliot_M> ok and how can i find my windows ip address
[01:29] <ihateusernames> so what can it be?
[01:29] <revvltn> where does Ubuntu keep the installation packages?
[01:29] <fujin> LOL HI
[01:29] <revvltn> does it remove them automatially?
[01:29] <Cal__> charlesedd, can we talk in private mode?
[01:29] <charleseddy> cal__: yes
[01:29] <Polyneux> Alright, whenever I try to access an administration program it asks for my password, when I put it in it says an underlying mechanism (sudo) has prevented me. When I try to run it again I see the <Starting ____> but it disappears without a question. :/
[01:29] <zoidberg> hey guys i'm having trouble installing beryl on edgy
[01:30] <Stoffer> nevermind, I misread the instructions
[01:30] <revvltn> I mean what directory are the packages kept
[01:30] <revvltn> that's what I actually meant
[01:30] <zoidberg> i read the instructions on the beryl wiki
[01:30] <zoidberg> but when i type 'sudo apt-get install beryl' it says it cant find the package?
[01:30] <blood> i changed users to root, me, and a guest, i tried to shutdown the usual way loged into me and it didnt work anymore, so i tried a terminal shut down nand it wants me to log into root now.
[01:30] <zoidberg> by the way i'm running edgy on powerpc....does that make a difference in the the apt packages?
[01:30] <revvltn> zoidberg: is beryl-manager
[01:30] <charleseddy> ihateusernames:  first check to see that you have a valid ip.
[01:31] <nivekc1> when i download programs from various places like for instance frostwire or whatever else how do i install it once it is on my desktop? im so used to windows its not funny anymore lol i want to use linux but i cant figure somethings out
[01:31] <charleseddy> cal__: i have you in a private chat; move to it.
[01:31] <zoidberg> revvltn, didnt work either
[01:31] <ihateusernames> i do, ive checked the settings like 3 times, they're all right
[01:31] <|_ocke> anyone know if theres a way to make xmms sticky (on all desktops) in beryl
[01:32] <revvltn> zoidberg: head over to #ubuntu-effects they'll help you better
[01:32] <charleseddy> _ihateusernames: and you just can't get http connections through a browser?
[01:32] <jrib> nivekc1: double click on it
[01:32] <foso> hey all, i forgot to ask, i wiped off my hd and cant get linux to recognize by mp3s, what do i need to dl?
[01:32] <foso> using rhythm box
[01:32] <DjViper> |_ocke: why use xmms when you've got Amarok ?
[01:32] <ihateusernames> for my DNS server it says gives my routers ip adress, and in my router the DNS servers are set up, is that right? or in linux on my computer do i have to put them in again?
[01:32] <nivekc1> i thought that only works if it is a .deb file
[01:33] <nivekc1> what about other stuff
[01:33] <jrib> nivekc1: that's what frostwire is
[01:33] <charleseddy> ihateusernames: sounds correct...
[01:33] <ihateusernames> yea...idk why its doing this
[01:33] <nivekc1> well frostwire was a bad examplelol
[01:33] <nivekc1> i installed that and cat get it to work still after three days
[01:33] <jrib> nivekc1: you want to avoid not using APT.  What are you trying to install?
[01:33] <charleseddy> ihateusernames: other computers on the network can still connect, i assume.  have you tried connecting with a live cd?
[01:33] <|_ocke> DjViper, i dont like amarok
[01:34] <nivekc1> well i was just wodering in general, but really i am trying to get my frostwire to work i thought maybe i was installing it wrong
[01:34] <DjViper> ihateusernames: ping your trouble-pc from the windows pc for a while and check if its alive all the time
[01:34] <DjViper> |_ocke: okay
[01:34] <jrib> nivekc1: what happens when you type 'frostwire' ina  terminal?
[01:34] <|_ocke> ive been using winamp and xmms since like winamp 1.0
[01:34] <EnsignRedshirt> My new install of 7.04 uses UUIDs in fstab.  Where do those IDs come from?  Is there an "Idiot's Guide to UUIDs" somewhere?
[01:34] <|_ocke> but regardless, wouldnt amarok have just as hard a time being on all desktops in beryl?
[01:34] <jrib> !uuid > EnsignRedshirt (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:35] <|_ocke> EnsignRedshirt, i hate those too
[01:35] <nivekc1> idk let me install it again (i got rid of it) and ill try it
[01:35] <|_ocke> !uuid > |_ocke
[01:35] <|_ocke> i have no idea how they work either
[01:39] <EnsignRedshirt> |_ocke: I don't hate them. I just don't know anything about them.
[01:39] <foso> anyone? do i need codecs for mp3s?
[01:39] <DjViper> |_ocke: why would you need it to be ON the desktop anyway?
[01:39] <NeoGeo64> why does firefox need 80mb of ram
[01:39] <fujin> EnsignRedshirt, /dev/disk/by-uuid/
[01:39] <DjViper> |_ocke: amarok can be controlled through one little icon
[01:39] <fujin> do an ls -la to see where they map to
[01:39] <charleseddy> foso: yes you do.
[01:39] <|_ocke> DjViper, so i dont have to switch desktops to change song/volume or see what is playing
[01:39] <jrib> nivekc1: ok, but be sure to use my name when you reply or I'll miss it
[01:39] <charleseddy> foso: depending on your locale, however, they are illegal to download.
[01:39] <EnsignRedshirt> jrib, fujin: Thanks.
[01:39] <foso> charleseddy, ok, where can i get them?
[01:39] <|_ocke> plus ive always used it on all desktops so i want to continue that :P
[01:39] <nivekc1> Starting FrostWire...
[01:39] <nivekc1> Java exec found in PATH. Verifying...
[01:39] <nivekc1> 1.4.2-02
[01:39] <nivekc1> OOPS, your java version is too old [java = 1.4.2-02] 
[01:39] <nivekc1> You need to upgrade to JRE 1.5.x or newer from http://www.java.com
[01:39] <nivekc1> OOPS, unable to locate java exec in  /usr/lib/  hierarchy
[01:39] <nivekc1> You need to upgrade to JRE 1.5.x or newer from http://www.java.com
[01:39] <Jordan-> So does anyone know how to get ubuntu working on Intel Core Duo ?
[01:39] <Sergo> sorry, how can i stop apache?
[01:39] <nivekc1> ls: /usr/java/j*: No such file or directory
[01:39] <nivekc1> OOPS, unable to locate java exec in  /usr/java/  hierarchy
[01:39] <guille1983> hi, i got 7.04 with gnome, now i want to try xfce, do i have to uninstall gnome first or can i have both and have gdm to ask me what desktop enviroment to use ?
[01:39] <nivekc1> You need to upgrade to JRE 1.5.x or newer from http://www.java.com
[01:39] <jrib> !paste > nivekc1 (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:39] <nivekc1> ls: /opt/j*: No such file or directory
[01:39] <charleseddy> foso:  if you still take the risk, type automatix2 in a search engine, install it, and get the libmp3codecs
[01:39] <nivekc1> JRIB: i got this               OOPS, unable to locate java exec in  /opt/  hierarchy
[01:39] <nivekc1> You need to upgrade to JRE 1.5.x or newer from http://www.java.com
[01:39] <nivekc1> kevin@kevin-desktop:~$
[01:39] <|_ocke> guille1983, no, just install xubuntu-desktop
[01:39] <Flawless> shouldn't dmix be enabled by default in feisty? I can't play 2 sounds at once
[01:39] <jrib> nivekc1: use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org , don't paste directly in the channel
[01:39] <foso> charleseddy, what exactly is the risk?
[01:39] <|_ocke> guille1983, you can have as many wms installed as you want
[01:39] <DjViper> |_ocke: right click on the xmms tab on your window list, check Always visible on workspace
[01:39] <nivekc1> oh sorry
[01:39] <|_ocke> DjViper, that doesnt work
[01:39] <guille1983> |_ocke: once a reboot my laptop.... what's next? is xfce going to be loaded by default?
[01:39] <jrib> nivekc1: have you install java?
[01:39] <nivekc1> it says my java is too old
[01:39] <jrib> !java > nivekc1 (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:39] <|_ocke> DjViper, thats the whole reason i ask :)
[01:39] <charleseddy> foso: it's illegal in the sense that they're patented, and you're downloading for charge software for free.  which is a violation of copyright law.  fines, if you're caught.  same as downloading music, really.
[01:39] <nivekc1> i just intalled java from add remove it ut runtime 5 it said
[01:39] <charleseddy> foso: 'cept no riaa
[01:39] <DjViper> |_ocke: hehe okay :)
[01:39] <ihateusernames> alright ill try that, and if you mean other computers can connect to me as in shared folders, then yea, but ill try pinging now
[01:39] <|_ocke> guille1983, itll be the default yeah, but just click on choose session to change it
[01:39] <Flawless> shouldn't dmix be enabled by default in feisty? Or is some special magic sauce voodoo needed?
[01:39] <jrib> nivekc1: try to use my name when you respond.  What does this command return (remember to use pastebin): apt-cache policy sun-java5-jre
[01:39] <nivekc1> so if i download the newest one from java.com how do i install it
[01:39] <foso> charleseddy, what do most ubuntu people do?
[01:39] <guille1983> |_ocke: thanks, is it true that xfce consume less than gnome? my laptop is very old and ubuntu doesnt run fast
[01:39] <|_ocke> guille1983, yeah much less
[01:39] <Flawless> guille1983: yes, xfce is pretty light-weight
[01:39] <Polyneux> Okay, things in system > Administration, don't work, it asks for my password one time and then says a mechanical device (sudo) prevents me from accessing. When I try to run it again the program doesnt even start.
[01:39] <jrib> nivekc1: use APT to install java, don't download from java.com
[01:39] <Flawless> guille1983: doesn't do as much, either
[01:39] <|_ocke> the difference will be awesome
[01:39] <charleseddy> foso: honestly, we just download it.  some are very purist and only use .ogg, but if you already have a media collection it's difficult to convert.
[01:39] <nivekc1> what is APT
[01:39] <tritium> Polyneux: sudo is not a mechanical device
[01:39] <_Ahti> petr4: nivekc1: apt-get
[01:39] <Don> hi people i installed VMware with automatix but i don't know runs
[01:39] <|_ocke> Flawless, does just as much useful and commonly used stuff
[01:40] <guille1983> |_ocke: Flawless: thank you i am going to try that
[01:40] <m1r> guille1983 , try fluxbox
[01:40] <Flawless> |_ocke: probably, yes
[01:40] <nivekc1> so i ust type "apt-get java"
[01:40] <jrib> nivekc1: synaptic is a frontend for APT - Advanced Packaging Tool
[01:40] <charleseddy> nivekc1: apt is advanced package tool.  it downloads/installs software for ubuntu
[01:40] <Flawless> |_ocke: But you can't argue that is does exactly as much.. :)
[01:40] <|_ocke> guille1983, i was using xfce on this box until just last week because i only had 256mb ram and it was awesome
[01:40] <jrib> nivekc1: no, read the link ubotu sent you
[01:40] <guille1983> m1r: i tried fluxbox but it used to hang
[01:40] <Flawless> |_ocke: That's a strength of xfce, in my book
[01:40] <ihateusernames> i set it to ping me 10,000 times, so ill see where it is later, but if it times out, what do i do then?
[01:40] <|_ocke> Flawless, mine too
[01:40] <foso> charleseddy, thats what i thought, but thought i woul check, i am moving my mp3s from my xp to ubuntu
[01:40] <foso> thanks
[01:40] <habeeb> I'm getting a "Failed to load module 'mouse'" when trying to install Gutsy (X fails to start). Any ideas?
[01:41] <|_ocke> Flawless, i dont like all sorts of crap going on in my cpu time and memory that im not using
[01:41] <EnsignRedshirt> When I plug in a USB hard drive, is it automatically assigned a UUID? (Or rather, is each partition assigned a UUID?)  I'm not on my 7.04 computer now, so I can't "try it and see".
[01:41] <Flawless> EnsignRedshirt: the UUID is calculated, not assigned
[01:41] <charleseddy> foso: np.
[01:41] <Flawless> EnsignRedshirt: and by calculated, I mean read.
[01:42] <Flawless> EnsignRedshirt: it's per-partition, yes
[01:42] <nivekc1> wow all that and it was so simple
[01:42] <nivekc1> tank you
[01:42] <Shaneras> mlr: look at the private window!
[01:43] <Don> hi people i installed VMware with automatix but i don't know runs, any idea????
[01:43] <nivekc1> so how can ifind a list of stuff that works with the apt-get command?
[01:44] <jrib> !apt > nivekc1 (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:44] <jrib> nivekc1: remember, synaptic is the same as apt-get but it has a gui
[01:44] <jrib> Don: why would you use automatix to install it?  vmware is in the repositories
[01:45] <blood> can i log in as root from the terminal?
[01:45] <charleseddy> don: hit the keys alt+f2, then type vmware-player
[01:45] <|_ocke> jrib, cause it does it :P
[01:45] <jrib> !root > blood (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:45] <PurpZeY_> !root
[01:45] <EnsignRedshirt> Flawless: So when I plugin in a USB hard drive, the UUID's will show up in /dev/disk/by-uuid and in the output of blkid?
[01:45] <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
[01:45] <Don> wait a momet
[01:45] <FastZ_> blood, you could just use Sudo
[01:45] <charleseddy> jrib: yea, sometimes it's easy to just, while you're in automatix, get stuff thats in the repositories.
[01:45] <Shaneras> mlr: look at the private window!
[01:45] <Don> not found
[01:46] <jrib> !info vmware-player | Don
[01:46] <ubotu> don: vmware-player: Free virtual machine player from VMware. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1.0.2-2 (feisty), package size 11602 kB, installed size 31336 kB (Only available for i386 amd64)
[01:46] <charleseddy> don: and it's nowhere in your applications menu?
[01:46] <nivekc1> jrib: looks like everything went well and jave 6 was installed but it still says my java is too old?
[01:46] <jrib> !multijava > nivekc1 (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:47] <FastZ_> Don, if you are looking for a nice virtual machine software, look at VirtualBox
[01:47] <Don> nothing
[01:47] <jrib> Don: vmware doesn't end up in my menu either.  Just create a vmx, easyvmx.com and double click on the .vmx
[01:47] <FastZ_> I'm not saying that VMWare is bad but VirtualBox is nice as well
[01:48] <Don> thanks
[01:48] <SoulinEther> hm, while on the subject... can anybody help me set up my network in qemu?
[01:48] <Don> ubotu thnks
[01:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about thnks - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[02:00] <matrax> comphappy - could you help tell me how to install them? I know it may be trivial but i`m on ubuntu for a cupledays now and still a bit confised
[02:00] <matrax> confused
[02:01] <comphappy> what file type are you wanting to play specificly
[02:01] <mdious> nielsbosworth:  does "free" show any swap being used?
[02:01] <jon__> hi
[02:01] <SoulinEther> I hate people who are arrogant.
[02:01] <matrax> .rmvb
[02:01] <SoulinEther> doesn't anybody else?
[02:02] <mdious> neilsbosworth:  check /etc/fstab and see if swap comes up in there, if so then check this link:  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/util-linux/+bug/117897
[02:02] <mdious> neilsbosworth:  actually that link is not so helpful...
[02:04] <Tom47> does automatic login compromise security in any way other than physical access?
[02:04] <comphappy> matrax read this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2220415 and get the win32codecs see here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75278
[02:04] <foso> charleseddy?
[02:04] <DjViper> Tom47: afaik. no
[02:04] <nielsbosworth> mdious: no. it shows a line with swap but 0 used
[02:04] <comphappy> that first link may not be important
[02:04] <matrax> thank you
[02:04] <nielsbosworth> mdious: and 0 available
[02:05] <Tom47> DjViper: i hoped not .....
[02:05] <mdious> ritual:  someone suggested adding "psmouse.proto=imps" to grub boot line...
[02:05] <foso> hey, sorry i was on here before and someone told me to get automatix2 to play mp3s
[02:05] <nielsbosworth> mdious: I know that I have allocated a swap partition and i assumed that ubuntu would use it :-(
[02:05] <PurpZeY_> !automatix
[02:05] <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
[02:05] <NeoGeo64> Help... how can I tell if my copy of Ubuntu is genuine?
[02:05] <mdious> lol
[02:05] <jrib> NeoGeo64: check the md5sum of the iso?
[02:06] <PurpZeY_> NeoGeo64: Where did you get it?
[02:06] <NeoGeo64> Where can I download UGA (Ubuntu Genuine Advantage) ?
[02:06] <DjViper> NeoGeo64: order a cd
[02:06] <jrib> foso: what version of ubuntu?
[02:06] <foso> jrib
[02:06] <foso> feisty
[02:06] <foso> he told me to get something else after i got that
[02:06] <DjViper> NeoGeo64: very funny....
[02:06] <NeoGeo64> DjViper, those CDs take forever to get here
[02:06] <jrib> foso: just go to the file explorer (places -> home) and double click on an mp3
[02:06] <SEOmoz> !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu
[02:06] <NeoGeo64> ill order in may and get them in august
[02:07] <PurpZeY_> NeoGeo64: Just download the ISO.
[02:07] <Shaneras> Someone knows if counter strike run in Wine???
[02:07] <SEOmoz> !WorksForMe
[02:07] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[02:07] <PurpZeY_> NeoGeo64: Plus it'd be hard to order them in May...
[02:07] <NeoGeo64> I have a 19.9k dialup connection
[02:07] <DjViper> Shaneras: yes it does, for some people
[02:07] <jrib> NeoGeo64: buy a cd from amazon.com then
[02:07] <NeoGeo64> Well, how much is it
[02:08] <NeoGeo64> where can I find a ubuntu 7.04 keygen and activation crack
[02:08] <jrib> NeoGeo64: or see if there is an active LoCo team in your area.  I'm not sure of the price, visit amazon.com to find out.  And stop with the nonsense please
[02:08] <DjViper> lol
[02:08] <foso> ok jrib, it plays in some window, but im trying to add my music folder to rhythm box
[02:08] <Shaneras> Dj Viper: why only for some people?
[02:08] <mdious> nielsbosworth:  maybe try running mkswap and setting it up manually?
[02:08] <m1r> neogeo64 , i sell keygen and activation price for ubuntu for half price
[02:08] <m1r> lol
[02:08] <fujin> rofl
[02:08] <DjViper> Shaneras: others might now have tried :P no seriously, it doesnt work for EVERYONE, but its probably one of the most worked on games for wine
[02:08] <jrib> foso: that should work fine, restart rhythmbox maybe
[02:08] <NeoGeo64> which is?
[02:09] <NeoGeo64> whats half of zero
[02:09] <Shaneras> mlr: look at the private window

[02:09] <minerale> Greetings, I am trying to install ubuntu, I put in the cd, click install, but it seems to stall right after I enter "english" in the dropdown, I hear the cd spinning but nothing happens, Is there a way to have it install from the command line ?
[02:10] <nielsbosworth> mdious: Ok. mkswap seems to need the name of the device. How can i see the fs-type of a device... do you know?
[02:10] <fujin> minerale, get the minimal cd
[02:10] <foso> one more question from the noob for yall, trying to add this repository http://archive.ubuntustudio.org/ubuntustudio feisty main >> /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:10] <mdious> minerale:  have you checked the integrity of the cd's...i wasted days because i didn't do it :P
[02:10] <mdious> neilsbosworth:  "mount" should do it
[02:10] <foso> when i put that in the synaptic spot for adding the button wont let me click to add it
[02:11] <ihateusernames> DJViper, ive had it pinging for a while now, average ping time is 5ms, and there was about 10-15 request timed out
[02:11] <DjViper> foso: try adding a / at the end of the url
[02:11] <mdious> nielsbosworth:  check /etc/fstab to see what number the swap partition is...I don't think mount will show it, well it doesn't on mine...
[02:11] <minerale> fujin: how do I get the minimal cd? I only see 6.06 and 7.10
[02:11] <comphappy> I have two computers that i am working on setting up for an office, so there location is not perminate.  where they are located now there is no network. I have a wireless AP, and i can connect to it via my laptop, how can i get my laptop to share this connection via its lan

[02:12] <AzMoo> Hey, I'm having an issue with a server I've got that's authenticating on our AD Domain. On some mornings when I come in one of my shares will not let me in. It tells me that the group name could not be found, and log.winbindd says that "group ggWeb_admins in domain CMVHODOM does not exist". This morning I restarted samba a few times to no avail, waited a few minutes, came back and it was all good. Anybody know what's going on?
[02:12] <nielsbosworth> mdious /dev/sda5 :-) tnx for the help - I'll try mkswap
[02:12] <foso> wait think i got it DjViper
[02:13] <mdious> nielsbosworth:  no worries, are you sure free shows no swap used?  Can't help you with mkswap sorry, never used it...I am very new :(
[02:13] <mdious> neilsbosworth:  all the best with it
[02:14] <DjViper> foso: did you?
[02:15] <nielsbosworth> mdious: yup, sure. mkswap is for setting up swap, but the fstab looked like swap might be set up correctly. Inthe manpage for mkswap there is a reference to "swapon" a command to start uding it - ill try that first
[02:15] <nielsbosworth> mdious: just FYI ;-)
[02:15] <foso> DjViper i get a no pubkey error
[02:15] <foso> i didnt have deb at the beginning

[02:15] <cormarrr> hola all, I just installed Ubuntu and I've got a question or two about getting WoW going, anyone got a sec?
[02:16] <PurpZeY_> !ask
[02:16] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:16] <SoulinEther> well, I've never set up WoW, but i have used wine a bit. how can i help you?
[02:16] <ihateusernames> DJViper, right now, im able to chat in IRC, but firefox isnt loading any pages o.O
[02:16] <foso> DjViper, this one http://csmonkey.com/blog/2007/06/04/how-to-install-ubuntu-studio-theme/
[02:16] <DjViper> ihateusernames: that might be a dns thing, try pinging a known outside ip address
[02:16] <cormarrr> I have WoW on my XP partition, can I just use WINE to access that - or do I have to re-install it under WINE?
[02:16] <Polyneux> I think I messed around and removed administration rights for my account, anyway to get that back> e.e
[02:17] <SoulinEther> DjViper, are you the djviper from OCRemix? :O
[02:17] <joetheodd> This isn't really an ubuntu question, more technical, but maybe you'll know: If my room is generally cool, is it safe to remove the system fan from my computer? It's annoyingly loud. :P
[02:17] <jrib> Polyneux: what does this command return:  groups
[02:17] <joetheodd> Also, I generally have the side off my computer, so it doesn't do much with air control anyhow.
[02:17] <nielsbosworth> joetheodd: odds are - no!
[02:17] <PurpZeY_> cormarrr: Most likely need to reinstall...Unless you can set it up using NFS and then run it with wine, but that might be rought
[02:17] <SoulinEther> cormarrr: you probably would want to copy it to your ~/.wine/drive_C
[02:17] <Tom47> is ubuntuguide regarded positively by experienced folk in this channel?
[02:17] <mdious> joetheodd:  maybe keep the side cover off....don't take the cpu fan off :P
[02:17] <DjViper> SoulinEther: no?
[02:17] <ihateusernames> im pinging google and im getting replies
[02:17] <SoulinEther> DjViper: just wondering, lol
[02:17] <Polyneux> jrib = elm ftpuser. I think I know what I did but I dont know how to undo it :/
[02:17] <cormarrr> SoulinEther, So if I just drag it over then I should be OK?
[02:18] <ihateusernames> average time 45ms
[02:18] <nilweed> Hi, when switch to a new desktop using the desktop switcher on my panel, the panel and menubar disappears (until I switch back to desktop 1).  What is going on?  Everything was fine yesterday.  Even did a reboot.  Running feisty.  Can anybody help?
[02:18] <SoulinEther> cormarrr: well, maybe. there are probably some registry values that won't get copied over though.
[02:18] <jrib> Polyneux: add yourself to the "admin" group.  Restart the computer and choose "recovery mode" from the grub menu.  Then issue the following command: adduser YOUR_USERNAME admin
[02:18] <SoulinEther> cormarrr: the best bet is to reinstall, unless that's not possible?
[02:18] <ihateusernames> ok if i put in the DNS servers on my computer instead of my router for the DNS servers, you think it might make a difference?
[02:18] <Polyneux> jrib I'll try that thank you
[02:18] <cormarrr> SoulinEther, It is a slow download on my system is all
[02:18] <PurpZeY_> cormarrr: I think SoulinEther has got a point...I think a reinstall of WoW is the way to go.
[02:19] <SoulinEther> cormarrr: Ah... well....
[02:19] <SoulinEther> cormarrr: you can try to copy it over
[02:19] <foso> DjViper, im trying the tutorial you sent, but its not working either
[02:19] <PurpZeY_> cormarrr: isn't WoW installed via CD?
[02:20] <DjViper> foso: doing it manually?
[02:20] <foso> it works more then i get an error, unable to lock the administration directory
[02:20] <cormarrr> PurpZeY, I've read that it doesn't install well under WINE via the CD'
[02:21] <foso> i tried adding the repository manually in synaptic DjViper
[02:21] <PurpZeY_> cormarrr: How would you install it via download?
[02:21] <cormarrr> PurpZeY, The forums recommend downloading the 2GB from Blizzard's site, just slow for me
[02:21] <PurpZeY_> cormarrr: I'd bite the bullet and follow them forums...
[02:21] <DjViper> foso: do it as described in the tutorial I gave you
[02:21] <PurpZeY_> cormarrr: Just my opinion.
[02:21] <IndyGunFreak> cormarrr: what are you tring to download?
[02:21] <cormarrr> PurpZeY, Yeah, that is what I'll do - just seeing if anyone else had thoughts
[02:22] <mdious> ihateusernames:  what sort of router do you have...i have heard of problems with the dns side of things on...linksys I think it was...
[02:22] <cormarrr> IndyGunFreak, Trying to get WoW running

[02:24] <foso> DjViper, im trying to learn
[02:25] <vilefridge> In leu of Dell Ubuntu notebooks being available for Canadian residents, I was wondering if anyone could recommend a laptop that is highly compatible with Ubuntu.  I don't mind messing with a few settings to get things functioning (sound, wireless).  I've looked through the laptoptesting pages and hardwaresupportmachienslaptops page, but it looks very incomplete..
[02:25] <foso> i entered that first line starting with deb
[02:25] <Jordan-> I've just had a big problem with Dell and Ubuntu
[02:25] <Jordan-> Actually just about to send back my laptop.
[02:25] <DjViper> foso: do this in the commandline: pico /etc/apt/sources.list then hit enter
[02:26] <Jordan-> Well, Dell and Linux in general, with these Intel Core Duo chips
[02:26] <DjViper> foso: then using your arrowkeys, scroll down to the bottom of the file and add the line form the tutorial
[02:26] <DjViper> foso: hit ctrl+x and answer yes, and hit enter
[02:27] <Polyneux> jrib: the trick worked =D Thanks.
[02:27] <PurpZeY_> Jordan-: ??
[02:27] <vilefridge> Jordan: what issues are you having?
[02:27] <DjViper> foso: you might have to do this as root, if so add "sudo" before "pico etc... blah"
[02:27] <niuq> there is any way to disable tapping from my touchpad it's really annoying
[02:28] <DjViper> niuq: you could disable it alltogether?
[02:28] <foso> DjViper, that line is already there
[02:28] <niuq> DjViper: what do you mean?
[02:28] <Jordan-> PurpZey
[02:28] <Jordan-> I can't even install Ubuntu
[02:28] <DjViper> foso: okay, do the next step then
[02:28] <Jordan-> ./bin/sh tty thing
[02:28] <DjViper> niuq: do you use it?
[02:29] <Jordan-> It won't get me to install @ all.
[02:29] <niuq> DjViper: yes i do, i dont even have a mouse
[02:29] <Jordan-> Then, I tried a few other distributions
[02:29] <jrib> Polyneux: great, you will probably want to add yourself to all the common groups too.  I don't have a list handy, but here are the groups I am part of and if a group does not exist on your computer, then it is something I added myself: adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev netdev lpadmin powerdev scanner admin kvm gnomedev
[02:29] <DjViper> niuq: okay
[02:29] <Jordan-> I successfully installed 3 of them, but all with problems. Some not detecting network cards, some not dealing with display properly.
[02:29] <niuq> DjViper: could you help me out?
[02:30] <Jordan-> PurpZeY_ Any ideas on the /bin/sh can't start tty job control?
[02:30] <Jordan-> Seen many bug requests about it

[02:42] <dino> anybody knows to fix problem
[02:42] <vbabiy> nman: also if you need to order a cd ubuntu will ship you one for free https://shipit.ubuntu.com/ takes a little while

[02:42] <foso>  DjViper
[02:42] <vbabiy> kafran: metacity
[02:42] <PurpZeY_> niuq: I'm not saying the one you want to install is not good. I am just saying, this is what I know.
[02:42] <joetheodd> After upgrading from breezy to dapper, my X server won't start. What do I type on the console to reconfigure it?
[02:43] <niuq> PurpZeY_: hehe, i actually install it and it worked, thank you so much
[02:43] <guille1983> when i was on my university i had to configure my laptop to connect to a proxy server, now that i am at home when I try to use aptitude it tries to reach first that proxy, i tried to disable all proxy connections but it insist on using a proxy :S please help
[02:43] <trenq> i had vista on my laptop and it annoyed me over 1/1000 second
[02:43] <kafran> vbabiy: thx
[02:43] <arpegius> vbabiy: should be in /etc/X11/? xorg.conf ? nothing's there for some reason. had to boot the machine into rescue mode to ssh into it... if that makes a difference.
[02:43] <jrib> !xconfig > joetheodd (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:43] <Polyneux> Can anyone link to an updated proftpd guide?
[02:43] <PurpZeY_> niuq: Sweet.
[02:43] <trenq> than ubuntu made me love linux 4evah
[02:43] <jrib> guille1983: how did you setup the proxy?
[02:43] <DjViper> foso: you'll have to google that one, sorry
[02:44] <vbabiy> arpegius: well that is your first problem give me one sec I will give you a direction on how to reconfigure x
[02:44] <niuq> PurpZeY_: btw how it works circular scrolling?
[02:44] <guille1983> jrib: on firefox and system-preferences-proxies
[02:44] <arpegius> while i'm in recovery mode i'd love to just disable X altogether. vbabiy would that be easier?
[02:44] <avis> i just installed xserver-xorg-video-intel.  do i need to do something to initate this xserver ?
[02:44] <jrib> guille1983: you tried starting a new terminal after tweaking system -> preferences -> proxies?
[02:44] <myth> anybody know where the config files are for system installed devices (like an IR remote but... wherever the sys files are stored)
[02:44] <zerro> hi is the some one that want to help us with at network problem betwin to ubuntu pc .. ??
[02:44] <arpegius> vbabiy: i'd just like to ssh into the box for all intents and purposes
[02:44] <guille1983> jrib: nop, but let me try that, if it works i will say I dont like that
[02:44] <vbabiy> arpegius: well what exactly are are you trying to do with this machine
[02:45] <arpegius> vbabiy: raw storage. have it up and running just to samba into it.
[02:45] <vbabiy> arpegius: well then i suggest you go download ubuntu server and install that it will not install a GUI
[02:45] <ihateusernames> vbabiy, here you go http://rafb.net/p/9epLjg82.html
[02:45] <ihateusernames> sorry that took long, internet problems ;)
[02:45] <guille1983> jrib: ok, it worked, I dont like that, debian does not behave like that :(
[02:45] <arpegius> vbabiy: if i just remove the x packages though?
[02:46] <vbabiy> arpegius: not exactly sure what package would have to be removed
[02:46] <jrib> guille1983: it shouldn't happen again, you started the terminal with the proxy set so it inherited those settings
[02:46] <foso> DjViper i think i might be able to install the theme from synaptic
[02:46] <m1r> any tip for mkinitramfs ?
[02:46] <foso> thanks for your help DjViper

[02:56] <vbabiy> lufis: what issue are you having
[02:56] <ihateusernames> let me get my other computer
[02:56] <tyoc> where ubuntu repos have NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-9755-pkg1.run
[02:56] <SpiderMan> i don't know. I think i should rtfm first but anyways, a friend of mine had a problem with the display of his Dell Espiron E1505 (http://www.dell.com/open) he subsequently corrected it with some software tweak. I wanted to know if the problem is in many (or ALL) the DELL laptops with Ubuntu preinstalled.
[02:57] <vbabiy> ihateusernames: how are you in the irc channel using wifi?
[02:57] <voici> tyoc: init 1
[02:57] <tyoc> thx
[02:57] <lufis> ;) well... whatever backend Gnomebaker and K3B uses is messing up on my drive. I'd like to install the latest version of whatever it is, but I have no idea what it uses because cdrecord has been forked 9 ways to sunday
[02:57] <ihateusernames> i dont know haha
[02:57] <ihateusernames> thats what im saying
[02:57] <ihateusernames> chatting i can, websites no
[02:57] <ihateusernames> idk, doesnt make sense
[02:57] <tyoc> brb people, hope dont trash the system XD
[02:57] <krznpsk> i just added an IDE DVD+-RW drive to my pc and it doesn't seem to be detecting it.  do i need to edit fstab for this?
[02:58] <ihateusernames> i have no firewall too, so thats not a issue
[02:58] <vbabiy> ihateusernames: are you using firefox
[02:58] <ihateusernames> yes
[02:58] <Pelo> ihateusernames,  you can use your wireless for chat but not for browsing ?  sound like a firewall issue to me , but I can'T realy help
[02:58] <ihateusernames> i have no firewall
[02:58] <MisterZC> krznpsk, no. The hardware should be detected
[02:58] <ihateusernames> so yea
[02:58] <lufis> ihateusernames: have you tried another browser?
[02:58] <MisterZC> but if you want to use a CD / DVD in it
[02:58] <MisterZC> then you'll have to edit fstab.
[02:58] <ihateusernames> ill try another browser right now
[02:59] <SpiderMan> ok
[02:59] <vbabiy> ihateusernames: runt his cmd sudo iptables -L
[02:59] <krznpsk> misterzc: could you help me through this?  i am not really familiar with that file
[02:59] <monkey89> is anyone using pidgin that knows how to make the tray icon regular size?
[02:59] <Pelo> ihateusernames, you have a firewall , we all do , it is called netfilter
[02:59] <SpiderMan> I am using Pidgin
[02:59] <MisterZC> jrzit's located at /etc/fstab
[02:59] <MisterZC> basically, it contains mount points
[02:59] <vbabiy> ihateusernames: also what error are you getting on firefox
[02:59] <PurpZeY_> monkey89: regular size?
[02:59] <MisterZC> you have to set up a mount point that points to your device ID that your new drive uses
[03:00] <SpiderMan> sorry
[03:00] <ihateusernames> what am i looking for in sudo iptables -L
[03:00] <monkey89> it's extra large... i can take a screenshot and put it up in a sec, but it seems other people have this same issue
[03:00] <MisterZC> I'm not entirely sure how to do it myself, I'm a linux newb :(
[03:00] <krznpsk> misterzc: i am looking at the file in gedit ... how do i find the device ID?
[03:00] <krznpsk> oic
[03:00] <vbabiy> ihateusernames: i need to see what is listed
[03:00] <MisterZC> krznpsk
[03:00] <MisterZC> type dmesg|grep <manafacturer name here>
[03:00] <ihateusernames> so pastebin?
[03:00] <SpiderMan> I am a newbie too!
[03:00] <PurpZeY_> monkey89: I don't have it....if someone else does, deal with them, otherwise post a screen-shot.
[03:00] <MisterZC> in a cli
[03:00] <greenhobo21> MisterZC, I am a Linux newb myself.
[03:00] <MisterZC> that should list the device and where it's located
[03:00] <lufis> I think ubuntu is using debian's fork "cdrtools"
[03:00] <lufis> but i'm never sure
[03:01] <MisterZC> or try dmesg|grep "ATAPI" to see if that helps you find it
[03:01] <krznpsk> misterzc: can't find it (manufacturer is lg) ... i scanned through dmesg and didn't find it
[03:01] <MisterZC> the entire output?
[03:01] <lufis> but the cdrkit website has no releases... what the heck?
[03:01] <ihateusernames> btw, theres no errors in firefox
[03:01] <MisterZC> after you installed it did you set it up in your system BIOS?
[03:01] <lufis> oh, nvm,. spoke too soon
[03:01] <MisterZC> set the jumpers correctly and all that?
[03:01] <vbabiy> ihateusernames: then what is it say that you can't open pages
[03:02] <vbabiy> ihateusernames: or pm me
[03:02] <krznpsk> misterzc: it's possible i did something wrong, i guess i will check that again
[03:02] <ihateusernames> it just doenst load
[03:02] <MisterZC> ok
[03:02] <ihateusernames> and sometimes a timed out
[03:02] <ihateusernames> but mostly just wont load
[03:02] <monkey89> here
[03:02] <monkey89> http://img294.imageshack.us/my.php?image=bigpidginiconkt1.png
[03:02] <imbecile> Hi everyone! I was wondering if someone knew the name something for copying entire websites to a hd
[03:02] <ihateusernames> http://rafb.net/p/YWiygS99.html
[03:02] <MisterZC> wget
[03:02] <SpiderMan> maybe a connection problem?
[03:03] <MisterZC> I don't know how to use it to copy a website, but you can. Check man to see if there's a way to follow and download any links it finds
[03:03] <PurpZeY_> monkey89: How is that not regular size?
[03:03] <ihateusernames> vbabiy, did you get the link?
[03:03] <SpiderMan> you can use firefox with extension like Scrapbook or DownThemAll!
[03:03] <SpiderMan> MisterZC
[03:03] <imbecile> MisterZC:  thanks
[03:03] <monkey89> PurpZeY_, I know it's hard to see, but it's bigger than usual
[03:03] <vbabiy> ihateusernames: yeah one sec
[03:03] <Kardi1> hi gang, anyone here know much about modems and ubuntu?
[03:03] <SpiderMan> you are welcome
[03:04] <MisterZC> here: http://www.jim.roberts.net/articles/wget.htmlhttp://www.jim.roberts.net/articles/wget.html
[03:04] <MisterZC> erm

[03:04] <MisterZC> yeah. Just copy that in to your browser
[03:04] <imbecile> SpiderMan:  thank you too
[03:04] <PurpZeY_> monkey89: That is bizarre, maybe someone in #pidgin knows....I have no idea...It doesn't look particularly bigger to me.
[03:04] <SpiderMan> you are welcome, inbecile
[03:05] <ihateusernames> im downloading Epiphany now, ill see if a different web browser makes a difference
[03:05] <Kardi1> i have one that is a hardware modem but ubuntu can't see it. what frustrates me is that sidux can see this modem
[03:05] <SpiderMan> yes, the Pidgin room folks are very kind.
[03:05] <MisterZC> use wget --mirror and it'll recursively follow and download all links for you
[03:05] <SpiderMan> Seamonkey??
[03:05] <MisterZC> thus creating a copy of the site on your local disk :)
[03:06] <vbabiy> ok ihateusernamesgive me a sec to get this right

[03:28] <ihateusernames> ok
[03:28] <Gnea> simon444: ok, it's not an .avi file then
[03:28] <ihateusernames> it seems to be working, if it goes out again. i know who to ask :) lol
[03:28] <vbabiy> ihateusernames: for some reason some program or a firewall had setup a bunch of rules and this was not allowing you to access the pages

[03:30] <Gnea> .avi files don't show up as raw data
[03:30] <simon444> Gnea, I know that
[03:30] <Gnea> unless the header has been removed or modified
[03:30] <ctkroeker> anyone get Skype to work on a edubuntu thin client?
[03:31] <krznpsk> i have installed a new dvd+-rw, GSA-H55L is the model, it is listed in my BIOS configuration screen, but it is not showing up in dmesg.  what can be wrong?
[03:31] <Gnea> simon444: well, you *could* try with xine or mplayer, but if it won't play, then it's probably DRM

[03:33] <tekelala> i have problems reading burned DVDs
[03:33] <tekelala> can someone help me?
[03:33] <beta-guy> I installed Ubuntu on my PS3, how can I change the display druver?
[03:33] <beta-guy> driver
[03:34] <drginny> whats the best supported wireless card for b/g ?
[03:34] <Gnea> tekelala: burned from what?
[03:34] <tekelala> burned from my previous windows system
[03:34] <drginny> if i have to buy one?
[03:34] <Gnea> drginny: 'best' is really... shortsighted and dumb, it depends where you are and your situation
[03:34] <budmang> Just installed feisty. Everything minus sound works on my toshiba laptop. I think I remember last time having to install extra alsa stuff? anyone help me?
[03:34] <Kilroo> drginny: Not the one I've got. Stay away from Softgate.
[03:34] <tekelala> i am new in ubuntu
[03:35] <simon444> Gnea, No demuxer found - stream format not recognised.
[03:35] <drginny> Gnea: best supported then for ubuntu/debian?
[03:35] <simon444> Gnea, any idea what that error is about?
[03:35] <tonyyarusso> Gaim is doing something strange for me.  When I have a conversation open on workspace 3 for instance, and am looking at firefox on workspace 2, when I get a new message in the gaim conversation I get a bold, flashing "attention" item in the window list of gnome-panel on all workspaces, such as 2 where gaim has no business being, until I view the unread message on workspace 3, rather than just giving the notification on wkspc 3 where it belo
[03:35] <tekelala> gnea: burned from my previous windows system, i am new in ubuntu
[03:35] <drginny> i thought the edimax ones would be
[03:35] <Gnea> simon444: it's probably DRM then, it'll never play in linux unless you can get WMP to run in wine/cedega
[03:35] <drginny> they look hit and miss
[03:36] <simon444> ok
[03:36] <drginny> ralink 2500 chipset was supposed to be good i thought
[03:36] <Gnea> tonyyarusso: that's not strange, it's completely normal operation
[03:37] <tonyyarusso> Gnea: Seems counterintuitive to me, since no other app does it.  Regardless, how can I get rid of it (as I find it annoying)?
[03:37] <Gnea> tonyyarusso: you could probably look into configuring gaim not to do that
[03:37] <Gnea> !dvd > tekelala
[03:38] <logos34> budmang: there's a 'comprehensive' sound guide in forums that'll sort you
[03:38] <drginny> Gnea:  why is it short sighted to want a wireless card that is well-supported by the community?
[03:38] <simon444> bye
[03:38] <budmang> logos34, link?
[03:38] <tekelala> Gnea: yes, i can't read a DVD with my backup

[03:40] <Kardi1> in sidux the modem is at /dev/modem
[03:40] <drginny> Gnea:  there must be chipsets that are better supported than others . . .
[03:41] <Gnea> drginny: i would have a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs and judge for yourself

[03:45] <drginny> Gnea:supported by the free software community yes
[03:45] <__mikem> Cotton-swab, why do you want to get rid of your boot loader?
[03:45] <cycom> I can't seem to mount my samba shares via fstab with my user.  I have to sudo.  I have smbmnt set for chmod +s, and I have 'user' as an option in fstab. what am I doing wrong/
[03:45] <estebanbianchi> ubuntu 5.10 doesn't have support?
[03:45] <drginny> Gnea:  those are the only ones that are totally free it says
[03:45] <Cotton-swab> __mikem: incase I want to get rid of linux
[03:45] <lbawinowns> How can I end beryl? I think I messed things up quite badly...
[03:45] <jmchaffie> Hi all... once again... noob to ubuntu question I guess... when I try to install a .deb package I've downloaded.. it keeps telling me there's another instance running... when there isn't. Even if I've double checked in processes... ideas?
[03:46] <__mikem> Cotton-swab, you need the boot loader to boot linux
[03:46] <cycom> I keep getting Operation Not Permitted
[03:46] <Gnea> drginny: i don't know what you mean, all of those drivers are free
[03:46] <vbabiy> nivekc1: what icon

[03:46] <Someawesomed> is there a tv tuner software included with ubuntu?
[03:46] <estebanbianchi> well i think i'll upgrade to feisty
[03:46] <Cotton-swab> __mikem: I know... But if I wanted to delet linux, the boot loader won't come with it
[03:46] <Cotton-swab> it stays on
[03:46] <nivekc1> doesnt display on desktop or in internet mune
[03:46] <Cotton-swab> right?
[03:46] <drginny> Gnea:  for example broadcom
[03:46] <logos34> budmang: http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Comprehensive_Sound_Problems_Solutions_Guide
[03:47] <drginny> gnea: BroadcomThese cards are not supported, because of their proprietary firmware requirement.
[03:47] <lbawinowns> Is there anyway to remove beryl?
[03:47] <__mikem> Cotton_swab, you can always overwrite it, and if you really want to get rid of it, you could always format the hda1 or sda1 partitions
[03:47] <vbabiy> hey nivekc1 run gmenu-simple-editor and edit the item and set the icon
[03:47] <__mikem> lbawinowns, yes, apt-get remove beryl
[03:47] <Gnea> drginny: i've gotten them to work before. is this for work or personal use?
[03:47] <lbawinowns> __mikem thanks

[03:47] <nivekc1> where do i find that app
[03:47] <jmchaffie> yeah.. what __mikem said... ;) didn't type fast enough
[03:48] <vbabiy> nivekc1: just run it by doing alt + F2
[03:48] <__mikem> Cotton-swab, yes, if you format the boot sector, that will get rid of the boot loader
[03:48] <vbabiy> and enter it there
[03:48] <__mikem> why are you so keen on getting rid of linux?

[03:58] <tekelala> Gnea: yes
[03:58] <Gnea> nero.. sucks
[03:58] <vbabiy> you may need to install sudo apt-get smbfs
[03:58] <CharlieSu> how do i play .iso file which is  a DVD from harddrive?
[03:58] <Gnea> cute_bettong: i said, what PROGRAM?
[03:59] <vbabiy> and then try that again if the share are setup on the window box you should be able to get in
[03:59] <voici> windows shares can be accessed without smbfs via places -> network

[04:00] <Gnea> vbabiy: he didn't answer my questions, therefore he doesn't deserve my help, simple as that. ok, next person, next problem...
[04:00] <vox754> cute_bettong, I don't remember exactly what I did, I just installed samba, and never used it for a few months; then I tried to access a folder on a Win XP computer, and all went fine, no problems. Just install it with all dependencies.
[04:00] <vbabiy> Gnea: ok
[04:00] <Gnea> tekelala: can you mount them?
[04:01] <Cotton-swab> can i put ubuntu on a vista machine?

[04:01] <Cotton-swab> thx
[04:01] <cute_bettong> ok ill try sence others are impatient
[04:01] <Gnea> jo_: sorry, i'm still looking
[04:01] <cables> vbabiy: what type of nintendo system do you want to emulate?
[04:01] <Gnea> vbabiy: fceu
[04:01] <Shaneras> Someone have cedega?
[04:01] <vbabiy> which ever had a good mario game
[04:02] <cables> vbabiy: so... n64? NES?
[04:02] <vbabiy> cable yeah
[04:02] <Gnea> cables: he said 'nintendo', that implies 8bit
[04:02] <C_> hallo all
[04:02] <tekelala> Gnea: when i try to read them the ubuntu thinks that they are virgin DVDs and it asks me if i want to create a new DVD
[04:02] <cables> vbabiy: I know of mupen64 for the n64, but I don't know of one for the NES. I do know that they exist though.
[04:02] <vbabiy> Gnea: well any with Mario
[04:02] <Gnea> vbabiy: fceu, snes9x
[04:02] <cables> vbabiy: EVERY nintendo console has a Mario game...

[04:03] <C_> has any one seen a white screen when running Desktop Effects ?
[04:03] <C_> and can i fix it ?
[04:03] <cables> vbabiy: Unfortunately, mupen64, the best N64 emulator for Linux, is nowhere near as good as Project64 for Windows :(
[04:03] <cables> C_: you need to install your video drivers.
[04:03] <vox754> cables, now that you mention it. What Mario game is available for Wii?
[04:03] <Gnea> cables: the N64 sucked anyhow ;)
[04:03] <jo_> Gnea thanks dude do you know which driver I should use or how I should configure xorg.conf?
[04:03] <C_> lol next dumb question
[04:03] <tekelala> Gnea: no, that they have no information so you can burn it
[04:03] <C_> how ?
[04:04] <PurpZeY_> vox754: Super Mario Paper, Mario Party 8
[04:04] <cables> vox754: there are a lot of games under the mario brand, but if you mean a super mario adventurish thing, Super Mario Galaxy will come out at some point
[04:04] <cables> Gnea: it so didn't! :)

[04:08] <Gnea> what? this is ubuntu
[04:09] <biffhero> There are dire warnings against editing /etc/apt/sources.list (cat $file | sed -e 's/edgy/feisty'), but that's my first thought, coming from debian.

[04:23] <emman101> logmein: I downloaded eclipse but it seems it is only for java
[04:23] <moDumass> like beryl is there but not working
[04:23] <twiztr> in case it fails
[04:23] <Gnea> tekelala: yeah, can you re-burn it with roxio or something else?
[04:23] <_Ahti> Gnea: 5 gigs is more than enough important data...
[04:23] <twiztr> does anyone know if I can run Resident Evil 4 on Ubuntu?
[04:23] <tekelala> i will try, i thought that it was a problem with my new ubuntu
[04:24] <_Ahti> twiztr: See winehq.com or transgaming.com
[04:24] <hahakhak> hi
[04:24] <C_> hell it even found my battery info
[04:24] <Toma-> twiztr: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=7096 : Basically, No.
[04:24] <tekelala> Gnea: i made a lot of changes in the hdparm.conf
[04:24] <Gnea> _Ahti: still, it ain't nothin! try 80gigs ><
[04:25] <tekelala> Gnea: do you know how i can undo all the changes?
[04:25] <Gnea> tekelala: it won't work if it's a SATA drive
[04:25] <Gnea> tekelala: i'm telling you this because i *know* :)
[04:25] <_Ahti> Gnea: Of course the more you lose the worse it is, but i'd hate to lose 5 gigs of data
[04:25] <Sergo> how can i run .sh files?
[04:26] <Sergo> i downloaded quake 3 for linux
[04:26] <Sergo> and try to setup it
[04:26] <Gnea> Sergo: sh ./file.sh
[04:26] <tekelala> Gnea: ok, thank you. Now i am going to spend my time in a better way
[04:26] <Sergo> Gnea: thanks
[04:26] <hahakhak> i have installed ubuntu in my box now, im planning for dual boot ubuntu and winxp,is this possible since i have already installed ubuntu first?
[04:26] <Gnea> tekelala: good luck :)
[04:26] <Gnea> hahakhak: yes
[04:26] <tekelala> Gnea: bye, and again thank you for your help
[04:26] <Sergo> Gnea: i got ./quake3.sh: 9: function: not found ....
[04:26] <jo_> what's up guys KDE won't automount my USB pen drive
[04:26] <emman101> Please. help me look for a C IDE compiler that is student friendly..
[04:27] <jo_> can anyone help me mount this usb pen drive?
[04:27] <vox754> hahakhak, yeah possible, but you need to make space for Win XP and reinstall the boot loader
[04:27] <theblackknight> hahakhak: possible yes, but not adviseable.  I were u, i'd reinstall xp then do ubuntu
[04:27] <_Ahti> hahakhak: Yes, altough its not as easy
[04:27] <hahakhak> :(
[04:27] <Gnea> emman101: just google it
[04:27] <theblackknight> hahakhak: otherwise your mbr goes away and you don't xp OR ubuntu
[04:27] <hahakhak> i have installed dual boot before but the sequence was first the winxp and then linux box, i have no problem
[04:27] <vox754> emman101, you don't do that. First define what "stundent friendly" is to you. Or give an example.
[04:28] <C_> okay so i just spent 10mnts talking to the bot in PM .
[04:28] <theblackknight> hahakhak: u answered your own question.
[04:28] <Sergo> Gnea, on sh ./setup.sh i got 9: function: not found, do you know what's wrong?
[04:28] <hahakhak> _Ahti: can you give me the url or steps please?
[04:28] <vox754> C_, that happens when you curse.
[04:28] <hahakhak> ill try if this will work even if i have installed first the ubuntu and then winxp
[04:28] <_Ahti> hahakhak: I'm sorry, i don't know a "HowTo" for it, and its far too difficult to explain here, you'll just have to dig around :)
[04:28] <cute_bettong> would vnc work to circumvent a network issue by allowing me to grab files off of a windows box and put them on my ubuntu box?
[04:28] <emman101> vox754: easy to compile and easy to run.. for high school student
[04:28] <vox754> C_, may that teach you a lesson
[04:28] <hahakhak> i have /data available with more than 20gb
[04:29] <vbabiy> ok I am back
[04:29] <C_> okay so Ubuntu know my display drivers and they are right .So i can take that as desktop effects just don't work on my PC
[04:29] <vbabiy> cute_bettong: nope
[04:29] <C_> *laptop
[04:29] <cute_bettong> >.<
[04:29] <vbabiy> cute_bettong: you didn't fix it
[04:29] <Gnea> vox754: there's nothing wrong with cursing. it's free speech. it's just regulated here.
[04:30] <arpegius> whats the trick to torrentflux in fiesty, anybody?
[04:30] <cute_bettong> well how can i fix something when i don't even understand what is wrong

[04:34] <theblackknight> hahakhak: no problems since wiht that configuration
[04:34] <vecina> gnea mplayer says it cant read realvideo 4.0
[04:34] <vox754> hahakhak, it is the same way. Just make space (resize partitions)  and install.
[04:34] <vbabiy> vecina: i agree with Gnea try mplayer and if it don't work try using the terminal and it will tell you why
[04:35] <vbabiy> cute_bettong: do you have a domain or just a workgroup
[04:36] <hahakhak> how to do it anyway? i wanna try. dont worry about important files
[04:36] <Gnea> vecina: ok, you'll just need the codecs from mplayer's webpage
[04:36] <vecina> Gnea: Alright hold on... i didnt have mplayer-nogui anyway, so ill be able to tell you exactly whats up
[04:36] <cute_bettong> vbabiy: well there is mshome which has some computers on it then one called wolfweb which has the computers on it that i stored the data on in windows....when i click on the wolfweb icon it shows the 2 computers....so i don't know if that is a domain name or a workgroup name.....i just know it's a private home network
[04:36] <theblackknight> hahakhak: like i said, i installed xp first.  that's what's recommended on every discussion i've seen re: dual boot.
[04:36] <vecina> Gnea: OH! there it goes
[04:37] <Gnea> vecina: :)
[04:37] <vecina> Gnea: Must have installed libraries
[04:37] <vox754> hahakhak, use GParted to partition. Size the current partitions so you have "unallocated" space. Then boot your Win XP CD, install, then reinstall "grub".
[04:37] <Gnea> lol
[04:37] <vecina> Gnea: Thats werid...
[04:37] <vecina> THANKS GUYS! XD
[04:37] <vox754> !grub > hahakhak
[04:37] <Gnea> i was about to say... http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/info.html  says that it IS supported ;)
[04:37] <vecina> now i can finally watch my um... documentaries! :)
[04:37] <neii> how to connect to Netware server using Ubuntu 7.04 ??? please advise
[04:37] <Gnea> vecina: have fun :)
[04:37] <vbabiy> cute_bettong: ok well when you fill out the user name and password to fill in the domain with the workgroup
[04:38] <Gnea> netware?! wow...
[04:38] <vbabiy> vecina: seem like you are the one having fun
[04:38] <cute_bettong> ok let me try that with the connect to server feature
[04:38] <jmchaffie> Anyone got a line on a java issue I can ask about? (not being impatient was told to ask every so often)
[04:38] <vbabiy> jmchaffie: ask
[04:38] <vecina> Okay i have another issue since im actually getting help here :D  How come dbus has to be reinstalled every time i login or it wont automount?
[04:38] <Gnea> jmchaffie: just ASK!
[04:38] <jmchaffie> I tried to install a program.. asked for java 1.5 or higher...
[04:39] <jmchaffie> downloaded 1.6 and installed..
[04:39] <jmchaffie> it still says 1.5 or higher
[04:39] <vbabiy> !java | jmchaffie

[04:40] <illmortal_> Hey guys?... What's the best way to keep a PC cool?
[04:40] <Gnea> neii: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=190759
[04:40] <vbabiy> jmchaffie: no you should be install it using the repos
[04:40] <Gnea> Sergo: yes
[04:40] <jmchaffie> Ok.. I see then. will do thank you!
[04:40] <vbabiy> jmchaffie: np just read that it will solve your problem
[04:41] <v1per> lo, ,just installed feisty server...for some reason after a few commands my tty session froze, and i'm forced to continue on another one...how do i kill a session/force a logout
[04:41] <illmortal_> Can anyone tell me what's the best way to keep my Linux box cooler than average?
[04:41] <vbabiy> illmortal_: put more fans :)
[04:41] <arpegius> can i not sudo su over a remote connection by default?
[04:42] <KingJere> illmortal_: turn it off
[04:42] <vbabiy> illmortal_:  i what i mean is what do you mean
[04:42] <arpegius> i'm sshed into the box. type that in, no prompt
[04:42] <Sergo> Gnea: need to restart after changes?
[04:42] <Gnea> v1per: alt-sysrq-k
[04:42] <vbabiy> arpegius: what you trying to do
[04:42] <illmortal_> vbabiy, as of now... it's an opened case.. and I dunno if it's keeping it cooler than if it's closed.
[04:42] <Gnea> Sergo: just X, yes
[04:42] <arpegius> vbabiy: sudo su ... just doesn't prompt me to put in the new root password
[04:43] <Sergo> thanks
[04:43] <vbabiy> arpegius: are you trying to set a password to root
[04:43] <cute_bettong> ok i give up
[04:43] <arpegius> vbabiy: i did already
[04:43] <cute_bettong> it's impossible to network ubuntu to windows it seems
[04:43] <v1per> Gnea, ? i dont get it

[04:44] <vox754> PurpZeY_, I'm the fastest caller around here
[04:44] <arpegius> it'd be nice to not have to log in as root. if i log in as user i can't sudo
[04:44] <cute_bettong> Gnea: if i wanted a smart ass opinion i'd ask you for it...so for the time being know your role and shut your hole
[04:44] <v1per> sudo is 'temporary' access... not good to be constant root (aka windows)
[04:44] <darwin81> How can I upgrade a feisty to gutsy?
[04:44] <cute_bettong> im trying to get help from people who actually want to help others
[04:44] <PurpZeY_> darwin81: Gutsy isn't stable yet.
[04:45] <Gnea> cute_bettong: oh i know my role, and i tried to help, but you weren't having any of it, so button your own lip and lose the attitude.
[04:45] <cute_bettong> your the one that seems to have an attitude...im just trying to get help and your calling people stupid
[04:45] <v1per> gnea, so what did you mean by alt-sysrq-k ..?  the sysrq part especially
[04:45] <cute_bettong> somehow you got your version of help way wrong
[04:46] <cute_bettong> ubuntu is about the spirit of humanity...not about makeing people feel stupid becasue they do not know something.
[04:46] <v1per> lol
[04:46] <Gnea> cute_bettong: it sure must make you feel smug to talk like that from behind a host that hides your real IP.
[04:47] <shiester_miester> hey everyone
[04:47] <theblackknight> shiester_miester: hello
[04:47] <cute_bettong> actually thats part of the problum.... i don't know anything about this network...i just moved here....
[04:47] <v1per> but you shouldnt say that it's impossible to network ubuntu and windows... that's below the belt, cute_bettong
[04:47] <Gnea> v1per: sorry about that nonsense - sysrq is also known as 'print screen'
[04:47] <gdb> Gnea: From looking at the scrollback, you're the one being a dick.
[04:47] <KingJere> Yall know what I love about ubuntu. I have the latest stable release running on a six year old laptop. Vista on this, I don't think so.
[04:47] <KingJere> I doubt even XP would go.
[04:47] <Gnea> !language gdb
[04:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about language gdb - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:47] <gdb> Gnea: I live in Lawrence, Kansas, by the way, if you'd like to play Internet tough guy and come "kick my ass".
[04:47] <darwin81> PurpZeY_ : I have an extra install of Feisty in a VM and I want to follow the progress of Gutsy.
[04:47] <gdb> Gnea: Stick a sock in it, tough guy.
[04:48] <cute_bettong> ok so let me make a clarification then... it's impossible for me to network ubuntu to a windows box.... i simply do not have the knowledge to do it...which does not make me stupid.
[04:48] <Sergo> heey
[04:48] <gdb> Stop calling people idiots when they're having issues with their systems.
[04:48] <Sergo> now my videocard work correctly with color depth to 16
[04:48] <Sergo> :D
[04:48] <Gnea> gdb: stop feeding the fire.
[04:48] <gdb> Gnea: Then stop talking.
[04:48] <cute_bettong> it's a wonder at my age i can even do it
[04:48] <v1per> cute_bettong: what was his response... i would say just one word.. samba
[04:48] <budmang> how do i find out my sound card chip set
[04:48] <budmang> im trying to install the alsa sources.
[04:49] <gdb> It's been back and forth banter between you and cute_bettong for quite some time with you pulling the big bad internet dude act.  Just can it.  It's not impressing anyone.
[04:49] <Cotton-swab> how can I delete a partition?
[04:49] <shiester_miester> lol are you guys having a fight
[04:49] <cute_bettong> i cannot figure out the howto for samba....you have to know something about networking to do things like that
[04:49] <cute_bettong> what the heck did i do?
[04:49] <shiester_miester> cute_bettong, samba is pretty difficult to use, i agree
[04:49] <Cotton-swab> I can I delete the ubuntu partition?
[04:49] <KingJere> Yall know what else I love about ubuntu? The courtious friendly help I can get in the IRC channel.
[04:49] <Gnea> cute_bettong: just FYI, i didn't call you stupid. now, originally, i DID ask you what program that you were trying to use to access windows, but you totally blew me off. i'm willing to see past that and forgive you for that.
[04:49] <cute_bettong> all i did was ask for help
[04:49] <tyler_d> term will not open... clicking on it says starting terminal... then it disapears?
[04:49] <shiester_miester> nothing wrong with that...its a help channel after all
[04:49] <gdb> 21:43 < Gnea> cute_bettong: it is when you try to do it as an idiot
[04:49] <tonyyarusso> just get back to the point guys and let it go.
[04:49] <gdb> 21:43 < Gnea> cute_bettong: it is when you try to do it as an idiot
[04:49] <Gnea> gdb: i said STOP
[04:50] <v1per> Gnea: btw, on my tty1 session,  alt+<printscreen>+k produced some numbers, but didnt kill the session, to my knowledge; isnt there some way to find a process with ps aux and kill it..?
[04:50] <gdb> looks like calling someone an idiot to me!
[04:50] <cute_bettong> i did not see your question Gnea i am trying to use the tools that came with ubuntu becasue samba is above my abilitys
[04:50] <gdb> Gnea: I care not what you said to me.  Sorry. :-(
[04:50] <n2diy> cute_bettong: Google can be your friend when you need help.
[04:50] <defrysk> any ops around to stop this **** ?
[04:50] <gdb> cute_bettong: What's the issue you're having?
[04:50] <v1per> with linux, most people are usually given a keyword, and told to google it/rtfm
[04:51] <v1per> the hard road
[04:51] <darwin81> How can I upgrade Feisty to Gutsy? I have an extra install of Feisty inside a VM and I want to follow the development of Gutsy.
[04:51] <n2diy> defrysk: they're lurking.
[04:51] <tonyyarusso> !rtfm | v1per
[04:51] <ubotu> v1per: Words like noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[04:51] <theblackknight> !rtfm
[04:51] <v1per> sry
[04:51] <shiester_miester> thats a pretty crappy way of helping people, by telling them to google
[04:51] <theblackknight> !rtm
[04:51] <v1per> i havent been here in a while, my bad
[04:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rtm - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:51] <gdb> defrysk: No, there aren't.  If there were, Gnea would have been told to can it -- officially -- some time ago.
[04:51] <KingJere> vlper: sometimes that KEY word is just what they need.
[04:51] <cute_bettong> ok when i try to connect to the 2 windows boxes to get my stuff back after getting rid of vista it asks me for the passwords on either of the 2 boxes....so i put the appropriate name and password for that box...and it dosen't let me in.
[04:51] <Sergo> Gnea: it seems that under 24Depth color the videocard is not supporting for 3D acceleration ,why this, need to contact the intel to do an video driver for 24 depth color?
[04:51] <Sergo> i use intel as videocard..
[04:51] <cute_bettong> i tryed the connect to server option in ubuntu...but it requires information i don't know.....
[04:51] <v1per> KingJere: nod, ,i gave 'samba' =P
[04:52] <shiester_miester> cute_bettong, how did you get ubuntu to connect to the windows boxes?  i havent even been able to get that far -_-
[04:52] <gdb> cute_bettong: Normally this is due to a password type disagreement between the two systems.  You need to force encrypted passwords on the Samba end.  There should be a keyword in the smb.conf file.  Lemme see if I can dig it up.
[04:52] <Nutubuntu> Hello all, I was building a new Feisty box and setting up software RAID. I want to re-do the partitioning again, but I can't seem to get rid of the RAID devices; even fdisk doesn't want to delete them. How do I get back to two un-partitioned disks?
[04:52] <Gnea> cute_bettong: what are you typing or clicking on to make it ASK you for the passwords?
[04:52] <cute_bettong> i just clicked the network icon in places
[04:52] <n2diy> cute_bettong: So Vista was installed, and then removed?
[04:52] <cute_bettong> yes on my computer...i coulden't stand it...it just diden't work right for me
[04:52] <cute_bettong> i think it's windows ME with a new skin
[04:52] <shiester_miester> heheh
[04:52] <Gnea> that's all you had to say...not so difficult now was it?
[04:52] <tyler_d> lol
[04:52] <n2diy> cute_bettong: So what is the current OS?
[04:52] <gdb> cute_bettong: Oh, the other thing, did you add the user acccount to Samba using smbpasswd?
[04:53] <KingJere> v1per: no really. I googled for better than 20 minutes the other day looking for something. When I found out it was called interface bonding I struck gold.
[04:53] <cute_bettong> ubuntu fiesty
[04:53] <cute_bettong> no i did not let me try that
[04:53] <EnsignRedshirt> How would I search launchpad for a problem in which two packages depend on each other?  g++-4.1 depends on libstdc++6-4.1-dev, which depends on g++-4.1. (The same is true for 4.0 in dapper.)  I didn't think this type of cycle was supposed to exist in the apt dependency database.
[04:53] <gdb> cute_bettong: You need the following setting -> encrypt passwords = yes
[04:53] <gdb> and you also need to create the accounts using smbpasswd
[04:53] <gdb> as in
[04:53] <gdb> smbpasswd username
[04:53] <cute_bettong> see thats the thing i don't even know where to put that info....im totally new to these things
[04:53] <gdb> Enter SMB Password for foo:
[04:53] <tyler_d> term will not open?
[04:53] <gdb> etc etc
[04:53] <v1per> Gnea, oh btw i guess you were right about the alt+<printscrn>+k thing; since ps -fu <myusername> only returned a process from tty2 =)
[04:53] <budmang> how do I find out my laptops sound card chipset?
[04:53] <v1per> tty1 died
[04:53] <Modred> cute_bettong: from your description, you're trying to connect from fiesty to the windows box, correct?
[04:54] <cute_bettong> yes
[04:54] <shiester_miester> cute_bettong, i think they are talking about entering commands in a terminal
[04:54] <shiester_miester> alt+f2, type "xterm" or "gnome-terminal"
[04:54] <cute_bettong> i stopped with the samba stuff becasue i coulden't understand it
[04:54] <cute_bettong> it is beyond what i can do
[04:54] <tyler_d> shiester_miester: why would the link not work?
[04:54] <n2diy> gdb, I don't know if it matters, but cute_bettong installed Vista, removed it, and is now running Feisty, if I understand it correctly.
[04:54] <Gnea> cute_bettong: what's likely happening is that, you're logged in as the user 'ubuntu' and the windows network is seeing you trying to login as 'ubuntu' and needs to have the proper credentials in place before it will workas that user and there's no such user, so just create an ubuntu user on those machiens and assign it a password and try again.
[04:54] <shiester_miester> tyler_d, wha?
[04:55] <Gnea> cute_bettong: and samba has nothing to do with it and won't help you at all.
[04:55] <budmang> I have the toshiba p205 - everything works minus the sound. It seems it sees the sound. aplay -l does not show a sound card.
[04:55] <cute_bettong> ok let me create that user
[04:55] <Modred> Gnea: samba could help...set it up on Ubuntu then log in from Windows and transfer the files =p
[04:55] <tyler_d> shiester_miester: running term from apps, accessories doesn't run it...
[04:55] <shiester_miester> xterm or gnome-terminal?
[04:55] <Gnea> Modred: samba won't do a single thing. the only thing that will help in *THIS* case is smbfs, which is obviously already installed.
[04:56] <v1per> cute_bettong: samba is easy:  to share a windows file, set is as shared, then use the 'mount' command to mount that share (syntax in manual etc); to share a linux file, edit /etc/samba/smb.conf , and look at the examples they have there of sharing; access it later on windows with  \\<ip address>\<sharename>
[04:56] <blood> j
[04:56] <Modred> Gnea: I'm really not sure what you're talking about.  If he had a share on his Ubuntu box and samba serving it up, how would that stop him from using the Windows PC to transfer his files?
[04:56] <Gnea> cute_bettong: and BTW, i'm sorry for calling you an idiot.
[04:57] <defrysk> budmang, lspci | grep audio
[04:57] <shiester_miester> if the windows box has IP and subnet already configured manually, do you have to manually set IP and subnet on ubuntu box as well?
[04:57] <cute_bettong> Gnea: its ok i get it alot from my freinds becasue im not as bright as they are with linux and computers
[04:57] <KingJere> !fish
[04:57] <budmang> defrysk, nothing comes up.
[04:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fish - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:57] <xjdriver69> cute_bettong:  after you create the samba user, dont forget to enable the user
[04:57] <Gnea> Modred: he wants to get the files FROM the windows boxes TO the ubuntu box, not the other way around.
[04:57] <defrysk> budmang, it seems your soundcard is not detected then
[04:57] <budmang> ICH7
[04:57] <Modred> Gnea: you can use a samba share just like any other drive in Windows, include drag and drop
[04:58] <budmang> with Audio captial A
[04:58] <v1per> nod, with samba dont forget to create a samba user and samba share password
[04:58] <tyler_d> Modred: windows shares files using username:password, that is without simple file sharing enabled, so if the u/name passwords were different, or even the domain, when he booted from his ubuntu to windows, the sharing would not work on one or the other/
[04:58] <Gnea> Modred: but that's not what he wants to do, so it won't work. learn how to read.
[04:58] <Kilroo> LVM seems like a grand idea. I've seen a couple of things that seem to indicate I could have WinXP (for dual-boot purposes) installed on an LVM-controlled partition, a couple that seem to indicate that's a bad idea, one that seems to indicate that doing so would have somewhat limited utility, and one that seemed to indicate that I could set up LVM without disturbing my existing WinXP installation and then add existing partitions to LVM
[04:58] <cute_bettong> holy shit your idea worked!!!! create a user with my credentials...asign them admin privlidges...and wala ^_^ thank you so much
[04:58] <budmang> defrysk, with captial A for Audio I get  82801G (ICH7 Family)
[04:58] <Modred> hmm, transfer files from Window to Ubuntu, sounds like what he wants to do, I wasn't aware I couldn't read
[04:58] <cute_bettong> this leaves me extra time to study samba and figure out how to do it that way now as well ^_^
[04:58] <Gnea> of course it works, i'm not a network admin for nothing :P
[04:59] <xjdriver69> if you dont you will not be able to authenticate properly
[04:59] <Gnea> cute_bettong: have fun, and good luck :)
[04:59] <cute_bettong> when i am ready to learn samba...is there like a samba for dummies or something XD
[04:59] <Gnea> !samba | cute_bettong
[04:59] <ubotu> cute_bettong: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[04:59] <Modred> tyler_d: I was talking about logging in physically on windows, then connecting to a samba share and doing the transfer from within windows, totally different approach ;)
[05:00] <phpcurious> hi
[05:00] <budmang> I have the toshiba p205 - everything works minus the sound. It seems it sees the sound. aplay -l does not show a sound card. Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family)
[05:00] <phpcurious> i have a question
[05:00] <cute_bettong> well it's transfering the files XD it's amazeing ^_^
[05:00] <phpcurious> is it possible to run ubuntu with VMWare in windows ?
[05:00] <Gnea> gdb: btw, i don't care where you live, only a fool would take your challenge that far ;)
[05:01] <Gnea> phpcurious: yes
[05:01] <shiester_miester> phpcurious, thats an interesting idea
[05:01] <tyoc> Hey, how do I unninstall a package without matter is dependencies??
[05:01] <phpcurious> first i tried
[05:01] <phpcurious> Kubuntu
[05:01] <ASTP001> 1039 people in the room... o.0
[05:01] <shiester_miester> speaking of sharing files with windows, if the windows box has IP and subnet already configured manually, do you have to manually set IP and subnet on ubuntu box as well?
[05:01] <RoC_MM> shiester_miester, no.
[05:01] <datoney> here is a quick question, if I build an ubuntu mail server can I my clients us MS Outlook to connect to it, an will they have the full functionality of Outlook?
[05:01] <shiester_miester> you can leave it to auto-config?
[05:02] <phpcurious> another question: what is best way to install ubuntu
[05:02] <shiester_miester> cute_bettong, can you explain the solution you used to me :P im having trouble with samba too
[05:02] <phpcurious> when I already have windows xp
[05:02] <shiester_miester> phpcurious, using the live cd, install it on another partition
[05:02] <v1per> shiester_miester: cant you just use the 'mount' command?
[05:02] <Gnea> datoney: no, they can use email, but full functionality of outlook is currently impossible without paid-for add-ons to a special setup.
[05:03] <shiester_miester> v1per, how so?
[05:03] <v1per> from linux, to access windows share,   'sudo mount
[05:03] <datoney> Gnea: bummer, ok thanks for getting back to me:)
[05:03] <v1per> whoops
[05:03] <cute_bettong> shiester_miester: ill pull you into private chat and tell you...im sure they don't need extra spam in here XD
[05:03] <v1per> from linux, to access windows share,   'sudo mount
[05:03] <v1per> omg
[05:03] <v1per> i keep hitting enter accidentally
[05:03] <v1per> one sec lol
[05:04] <defrysk> budmang, 2.6.20 kernel ?
[05:04] <zbadone> I've read older posts that a laptop running a Intel GMA950 is pushing the limits of hardware for Beryl, is this so? it's a Toshiba A205-S4577
[05:04] <shiester_miester> my problem is very simple.  i have a windows box and a linux box.  i want to be able to access the files on the linux box from the windows box, no fancy passwords or NAT or anything, just a crossover cable
[05:04] <greg_g> ok, this should be an easy one, I just don't know how to search for it on google: how do you change/set the name of a computer?
[05:04] <zbadone> would it be worht my efforts?
[05:04] <zbadone> worth
[05:04] <KI4IKL> shiester_miester, you'd be better off using samba
[05:04] <KI4IKL> wait
[05:04] <KI4IKL> nm
[05:04] <Kilroo> Is this a good place to ask things about LVM and dual booting or is there a more appropriate place I should go?
[05:04] <v1per> shiester_miester: 'sudo mount //<comp name or ip address>/<sharename>    <directory to mount it  eg /mnt/sambatest>  -o username=myusername,password=mypassword
[05:05] <Nutubuntu> shiester_miester,  in that case unless the windows box is configured to act as a dhcp server, you *will* have to manually set an ip address on the linux box - to answer your earlier question - b/c the linux box would have no other way to obtain its address
[05:05] <shiester_miester> v1per, thank you, ill try that
[05:05] <Gnea> shiester_miester: then setup samba to use shared access
[05:05] <v1per> but listen to nutubuntu as well
[05:05] <v1per> =)
[05:05] <KingJere> greg_g: hostname commmand oddly enough
[05:05] <greg_g> KingJere: thanks a lot
[05:05] <zbadone> or change hostname in /etc/HOSTNAME
[05:05] <shiester_miester> Gnea, how does one go about doing that?
[05:05] <KingJere> no prob
[05:05] <budmang> defrysk, yes 2.6.20
[05:05] <firman> reni
[05:06] <Gnea> shiester_miester: by using swat
[05:06] <Gnea> !samba | shiester_miester
[05:06] <ubotu> shiester_miester: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[05:06] <zbadone> nano /etc/hostname
[05:06] <greg_g> thanks zbadone also
[05:06] <KingJere> zbadone: that actually might be easier
[05:06] <shiester_miester> ok
[05:06] <zbadone> CL is easy and fast
[05:06] <shiester_miester> im surprised that nobody seems to have made a GUI interface for samba
[05:06] <zbadone> or vi /etc/hostname
[05:06] <cute_bettong> shiester_miester: did you get that private chat?
[05:06] <defrysk> budmang, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/92825
[05:06] <shiester_miester> since it appears rather complex with all its commands and everything to people not familiar with it
[05:06] <RoC_MM> shiester_miester, there is.
[05:06] <greg_g> both are easy enough zbadone / KingJere
[05:06] <Gnea> shiester_miester: you may have to fiddle around with it a bit, ask in #samba, and search google - i used to use shared non-password, but gave up when i went wireless :)
[05:07] <RoC_MM> shiester_miester, both sharing and accessing
[05:07] <zbadone> there is a GUI for samba, call SWAT
[05:07] <shiester_miester> cute_bettong, yes
[05:07] <cute_bettong> thats the soloution getting ready to try it on the xp box now
[05:07] <Gnea> shiester_miester: heh, all it does it write a smb.conf file and run /etc/init.d/samba restar to reload it, works fine, just don't have any files open with windows when you restart it :)
[05:08] <budmang> defrysk, wierd mine works in the earlier version of ubuntu. Guess I just wait.
[05:08] <Gnea> *restart
[05:08] <cute_bettong> holy****! it works XD
[05:08] <cute_bettong> the solution works for both win xp and 2k boxes...
[05:08] <shiester_miester> cute_bettong, did you have to use samba for your solution?
[05:08] <cute_bettong> weard O_o
[05:08] <cute_bettong> nope
[05:08] <shiester_miester> fantastic
[05:08] <shiester_miester> :D
[05:08] <cute_bettong> this was done just with the gui
[05:08] <Gnea> see :P
[05:08] <zbadone> I've read older posts that a laptop running a Intel GMA950 is pushing the limits of hardware for Beryl, is this so? it's a Toshiba A205-S4577
[05:08] <shiester_miester> brb lunchtime
[05:09] <Gnea> anyone wanna buy some SCSI hard drives? :)
[05:09] <KingJere> zbadone: I think they have live distros with beryl on them. perhaps try that?
[05:09] <Gnea> they run at 10K rpms
[05:09] <n2diy> Can I configure Nautilus to _not_ abbreviate files sizes?
[05:09] <cute_bettong> Gnea: thanx for your idea and all the others as well... the solution is to create an account with admin status on all of the computers you wish to connect to within your home...haveing the info in the win boxes identical to your ubuntu logon and pass.... i don't know why it works...don't care but it does XD
[05:09] <Gnea> cute_bettong: you're welcome
[05:09] <cute_bettong> and i think it works so that you can dump stuff on there as well
[05:10] <NickGarvey> does anyone know if the ubuntu CD automatically mounts windows partitions it finds or do you need to do it yourself?
[05:10] <cute_bettong> the thing i dont understand is why O_o
[05:10] <cute_bettong> lol
[05:10] <Gnea> as long as you have sharing turned on for whatever folders, yes
[05:10] <cute_bettong> yes
[05:10] <cute_bettong> all the folders that i could see in vista are still there
[05:10] <cute_bettong> im going to give my copy of vista to someone i don't like XD
[05:10] <Gnea> man... vista...
[05:10] <cute_bettong> it's just not ready for the masses yet
[05:10] <KingJere> !vista
[05:10] <ubotu> vista is the new operating system by the evil overlords from Redmond. For more information, see http://www.badvista.org
[05:11] <tyler_d> panel only showing up on the rhs of the screen?
[05:11] <Gnea> you're telling me? lol
[05:11] <n2diy> cute_bettong: That is a good idea!
[05:11] <Nutubuntu> Hello all, I was building a new Feisty box and setting up software RAID. I want to re-do the partitioning again, but I can't seem to get rid of the RAID devices; even fdisk doesn't want to delete them. How do I get back to two un-partitioned disks?
[05:11] <DR_K13> vista is great at locking up. thats about it
[05:11] <cute_bettong> now if i convert the other computers to linux...will they communicate easyer?
[05:11] <cute_bettong> becasue we have a roomate that is rootkiting the networks computers
[05:11] <tyoc> How do I delete nvidia-kernel-common (sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia-kernel-common) without also delete my kernel??? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26071/ (packages linked to the nvidia thing I whant to uninstall, but TAHT I DONT whant be deleted!!!!)
[05:11] <Gnea> cute_bettong: i've been troubleshooting vista for the past few months so much that i've pretty much memorized the URL to get the DLA error fixed.
[05:11] <cute_bettong> or doing something O-o
[05:11] <budmang> defrysk, I got it working from that bug link thanks.
[05:12] <cute_bettong> o
[05:12] <Gnea> cute_bettong: sounds like you need a competant admin to fix everything
[05:12] <cute_bettong> theres a few errors... like vista errors out each time i try to update it becasue i don't have appropriate permissions
[05:12] <cute_bettong> i wish XD
[05:12] <Gnea> got a hiring department? :)
[05:12] <defrysk> budmang, good news :)
[05:13] <cute_bettong> becasue it's the roomate thats running the network thats running nasty things on the network...he was able to see all the stuff on my sons computer without even setting foot in his room
[05:13] <cute_bettong> and the computer is pass protected and not shared on the network
[05:13] <cute_bettong> another reason i installed ubuntu on mine....i was told it's more secure
[05:13] <Gnea> it's as secure as you make it
[05:13] <cute_bettong> he got into mine as well...just cannot prove it
[05:13] <Gnea> it's not necessarily secure right out of the box
[05:13] <n2diy> cute_bettong: much more secure.
[05:13] <Gnea> it's just... not windows :)
[05:14] <cute_bettong> hehe
[05:14] <cope[dev] > cute_bettong, the operating system doesn't make it secure.. the user does... if you don't know what your doing in windows or ubuntu, learn. :)
[05:14] <cope[dev] > if you get hacked now, how would you tell?
[05:14] <cute_bettong> ive been useing ubuntu for quite some time...but never had to network it...and i figured it was more secure outta the box then windows....i plat games use the qcad app to make my clock parts...and just have fun with it
[05:15] <Gnea> i hate it when people lie and say something's secure - it gives people false hope
[05:16] <KingJere> Gnea: maybe its just me, but I feel like I have the tools to make my kubuntu boxes more secure,
[05:16] <Nutubuntu> "Secure" is separated from the network by a 6' airspace
[05:16] <n2diy> cope, log files might help, but a good cracker would alter/delete them.
[05:16] <minerale> How do I get the "mini" cd, my comuter has only 128 mb of ram and it's almost impossible to run the livecd + install
[05:17] <Gnea> "is it secure?" "yes." ok then... "is it connected to a network?" "yes." and that's secure how? "is it secure if i unplug the ethernet cable?" "yes."
[05:17] <v1per> bah...*&$(&*#$(* ... laptop overheated and shutdown during fluxbox compile
[05:17] <v1per> gg
[05:17] <Gnea> think about it. :)
[05:17] <Tom47>  /ignore
[05:17] <KingJere> Gnea: but then you can't IRC
[05:17] <Nutubuntu> minerale,  this one? -- http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/ubuntu/dists/feisty/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/
[05:17] <KingJere> :)
[05:17] <Gnea> KingJere: really? :)
[05:17] <ircblood>  can i connect to the irc-server: irc.stratics.com, and join channel: #darkfall?
[05:17] <cute_bettong> oh i know any computer connected to the network is not 100% safe
[05:18] <cute_bettong> im not totally stupid the only safe computer is the one thats not connected to the network and turned off XD
[05:18] <EnsignRedshirt> Hmmm, let me test that.  I'll just unplug this here cable...
[05:18] <n2diy> Can I configure Nautilus to _not_ abbreviate files sizes?
[05:18] <Kilroo> LVM seems like a grand idea. Things I have read seem to indicate that I could have WinXP (for dual-boot purposes) installed on an LVM-controlled partition, that it's a good idea, that it's a bad idea, that I have to wipe the whole disk in order to set it up, and that I could set it up without disturbing my existing WinXP installation and then add existing partitions to LVM control. Which parts of that are most correct? :-)
[05:18] <cute_bettong> roflmao
[05:19] <KingJere> Ensign? you still theres

[05:22] <krips> vecina  u need to check the type of ur video card and if u have direct rendering
[05:22] <Gnea> v1per: lol
[05:23] <KingJere> tyler_d: not sure, but I think you want linux-686-smp
[05:23] <MisterZC> v1per, your system melted and you didn't even know it? :O
[05:23] <v1per> it doesnt _feel_ like 102 celsius
[05:23] <KingJere> someone verify?
[05:23] <Sergo> thanks
[05:23] <vecina> krips: ... i dunno what you mean i should do... i think i may have those things, its a brand new ATI

[05:24] <tyler_d> KingJere: just wanted exactly what you said... ie, if your running this, use this
[05:24] <v1per> i really doubt it was so hot
[05:24] <cute_bettong> ok i looked for my computer on the others...and it cannot be seen does that mean it's safer?
[05:24] <v1per> complete bs
[05:24] <krips> what ubuntu u have
[05:24] <krips> the feith

[05:24] <Tom47> celcius?
[05:24] <KingJere> thats why I said "someone verify?"
[05:24] <Gnea> cute_bettong: try port scanning it from another
[05:24] <v1per> yes, Tom47, > BP
[05:24] <v1per> i've had it hit that temp before
[05:24] <v1per> but...
[05:24] <tyler_d> KingJere: says obsolete...
[05:24] <v1per> it didnt feel so hot this time
[05:25] <Gnea> most of the world uses celcius
[05:25] <cute_bettong> how would i do that fromxp?

[05:25] <v1per> Gnea, actually most use celsius
[05:25] <n2diy> cute_bettong: go to http://www.grc.com and run their "sheilds up" software, they will scan your box, and report how secure it is.
[05:26] <tyoc> People here have migrated from 1.9775 to 100.14 of nvidia drivers??

[05:35] <Gnea> vbabiy: the cable modem keeps resetting connection
[05:35] <tyler_d> still looking for an intel core 2 duo 32 bit kernel upgrade if anyone knows anything?
[05:35] <Gnea> vbabiy: it's probably the heat
[05:35] <vbabiy> Gnea: i don't even remeber what cable is i am on fiber now :)
[05:35] <JoelR> Hello i have just installed ubuntu fiesty fawn in a thinkpad t60 but it didn recognize my wireless card, i do a lspci and it tells me this: 03:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. Unknown device 0024 (rev 01)
[05:35] <JoelR>   what nic is it?
[05:35] <n2diy> tyler_d: fire up synaptic, and search for linux, that will list the available kernels.
[05:36] <vbabiy> Don I am not sure
[05:36] <Gnea> vbabiy: heh, it's about 46C out today :)
[05:36] <Sergo> how to enable root user
[05:36] <tyler_d> n2diy: ty
[05:36] <Don> is too rare
[05:36] <Sergo> in terminal
[05:36] <n2diy> tyler_d: nada
[05:36] <Sergo> !root > Sergo
[05:36] <vbabiy> nivekc1: did you get that to work
[05:37] <nivekc1> idk the case just says windows 2000 or higher
[05:37] <KingJere> !sftp
[05:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sftp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:37] <Nutubuntu> I was building a new Feisty box and setting up software RAID. I want to re-do the partitioning again, but I can't seem to get rid of the RAID devices; even fdisk doesn't want to delete them. How do I get back to two un-partitioned disks?
[05:37] <vbabiy> Gnea here its about 85f
[05:37] <contraY> hi I installed all the Medibuntu stuff and I attempted to play a DVD and I've got this message
[05:37] <Gnea> vbabiy: that's 115F
[05:37] <contraY> 11:37:08 PM: xine: couldn't find demux for >dvd:///dev/scd0<
[05:37] <contraY> 11:37:07 PM: xine: found input plugin : DVD Navigator
[05:37] <contraY> 11:35:24 PM: xine: couldn't find demux for >dvd:///dev/scd0<
[05:37] <contraY> 11:35:23 PM: xine: found input plugin : DVD Navigator
[05:37] <contraY> 11:33:50 PM: xine: couldn't find demux for >dvd:///dev/scd0<
[05:37] <n2diy> KingJere: try scp.
[05:37] <teer2> Nutubuntu: consider getting rid of software RAID
[05:37] <vbabiy> Gnea: where do youl ive
[05:37] <defrysk> !paste > contraY
[05:37] <shiester_miester> i installed ubuntu on my other computer, when it tries to boot it says this: "GRUB loading, please wait...  Error 18" and then it just stops :(  i googled it and apparently it can be fixed by putting the partition at the start of the drive rather than later on.  is this correct?
[05:38] <tonyyarusso> shiester_miester: I've heard of things like that, so quite likely
[05:38] <Gnea> vbabiy: arizona. you?
[05:38] <vbabiy> New york
[05:38] <KingJere> n2diy: I love scp. I was just curious.
[05:38] <shiester_miester> is there any way to "move" the partition, or do i just have to repartition and reinstall ubuntu?
[05:38] <teer2> Nutubuntu: nuke it from the BIOS, you should see a prompt for it as it boots, maybe ^E
[05:38] <Gnea> vbabiy: right on, upstate?
[05:38] <Nutubuntu> teer2 t/y
[05:38] <vbabiy> update
[05:38] <vbabiy> upstate
[05:38] <Gnea> lol
[05:38] <KingJere> !scp
[05:38] <ubotu> SCP is a secure way of copying files across networks using !SSH. Usage: scp filename user@host:filename - WinSCP is a client for Windows, available at http://winscp.net/
[05:38] <n2diy> KingJere: roger.
[05:38] <vbabiy> I just wish there was a ubuntu group up here
[05:38] <nivekc1> the problem im having is that i dont know how to install it on windows i just click install lol
[05:39] <Gnea> vbabiy: make one :)
[05:39] <teer2> Nutubuntu: you know you will lose everything of the disks, right?
[05:39] <vbabiy> Gnea:  i should
[05:39] <Nutubuntu> teer2 sure, they're new disks, np
[05:39] <KingJere> n2diy: i didn't know however there waw a win client.
[05:39] <JoelR> Hello i have just installed ubuntu fiesty fawn in a thinkpad t60 but it didn recognize my wireless card, i do a lspci and it tells me this: 03:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. Unknown device 0024 (rev 01) what nis is it?
[05:39] <vbabiy> nivekc1: ok is it a exe
[05:39] <vbabiy> for the install
[05:39] <nivekc1> yep
[05:39] <teer2> Nutubuntu: good luck
[05:39] <n2diy> KingJere: I didn't either!
[05:39] <Nutubuntu> teer2,  t/y
[05:39] <shiester_miester> nivekc1, you have to use wine, i think
[05:39] <Nutubuntu> bbl....
[05:39] <tonyyarusso> shiester_miester: if there are other partitions on either side, you'll likely have to start over
[05:39] <`eric-> vbabiy: ty, that worked :)
[05:39] <teer2> is it possible to stop the kernel from being updated?
[05:39] <shiester_miester> tonyyarusso, i thought as much, its not really a problem though since i only just installed it, so all i lose is the time :P
[05:40] <vbabiy> `eric-: np
[05:40] <contraY> hi I got this problem while attempting to watch dvd http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26073/
[05:40] <PurpZeY_>  teer2: Just don't do the update.
[05:40] <shiester_miester> teer2, unselect it from the update manager when its updating
[05:40] <vbabiy> Gnea: do you know what it would take to make one... I mean do i have to talk to any one
[05:40] <nivekc1> wine will let me install .exe?
[05:40] <shiester_miester> why wouldnt you want to update the kernel though?
[05:40] <tonyyarusso> teer2: You can always run an old kernel after the update as well
[05:40] <teer2> PurpZeY_: but then it will say there are updates waiting...
[05:40] <tonyyarusso> nivekc1: sometimes - what for?
[05:40] <shiester_miester> nivekc1, yes it should.  ive heard that doom3 installs just fine
[05:40] <vbabiy> !wine | nivekc1
[05:40] <ubotu> nivekc1: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[05:40] <PurpZeY_> shiester_miester: It can cause hardware issues. I had it happen to me.
[05:40] <vbabiy> nivekc1: and yes wine will let you to install exe
[05:40] <nivekc1> doom 3
[05:40] <shiester_miester> nivekc1, you will also need to get the doom 3 binary from the ID software FTP
[05:41] <n2diy> teer2: right click on your update icon, and check out the options. I don't think you can stop the update, but I believe you can prevent it from being installed?
[05:41] <teer2> WHY is ubuntu updating the kernel anyway?  It's scary.
[05:41] <tonyyarusso> teer2: security update
[05:41] <shiester_miester> teer2, because the kernel has been updated :P why wouldnt it
[05:41] <vbabiy> teer2: ^
[05:41] <shiester_miester> operating systems /need/ to be updated
[05:41] <vbabiy> teer2: what they said
[05:41] <nivekc1> ok ill try wine thanks again
[05:41] <vbabiy> nivekc1: Np
[05:41] <teer2> shiester_miester: Why not?  Because my system doesn't come back online!
[05:41] <shiester_miester> well yeah thats a bug :P
[05:42] <shiester_miester> bugs are another reason they need to be updated
[05:42] <Gnea> vbabiy: i would first look to see if there's a local linux users group (LUG) and go from there
[05:42] <shiester_miester> ive heard bad things about the new kernel, im just glad it didnt cause me any problems
[05:42] <vbabiy> shiester_miester: like what
[05:42] <teer2> It's a big deal!!  I wish it would stick to the 6 months updates like they said.
[05:42] <shiester_miester> huh?
[05:42] <vbabiy> Gnea: yeah maybe but not sure if i will have enough time
[05:42] <contraY> what can I do about this? No plugin found to handle this resource (dvd:///dev/scd0)
[05:42] <tonyyarusso> teer2: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-security-announce/2007-June/000542.html
[05:42] <PurpZeY_> shiester_miester: I didn't have a problem with it on my desktop, but I did on my laptop...It wasn't a a big deal, but I am hesistant to do it again.
[05:42] <shiester_miester> vbabiy, "like what"? what do you mean?
[05:43] <vbabiy> teer2: thats ubuntu release cycle not kernel udpates
[05:43] <burnerx> how do i sync via bluetooth with my phone ?
[05:43] <teer2> tonyyarusso: thank you for the link
[05:43] <vbabiy> shiester_miester: what bad stuff have you heard about the kernel
[05:43] <burnerx> what bluetooth software is there?
[05:43] <n2diy> shiester_miester: I lurk in #ubuntu-kernel, and the update that occured two weeks ago was an accident.
[05:43] <shiester_miester> well, it not working on peoples computers
[05:43] <shiester_miester> lmao, really!?
[05:43] <KingJere> enough fun for one day, night all.
[05:43] <shiester_miester> what about it was accidental?
[05:43] <shiester_miester> do you mean they released it before it was stable?
[05:44] <PureEvilGeek> shiester_miester: "Some
[05:44] <PureEvilGeek> additional code changes were accidentally included in the Feisty update
[05:44] <PureEvilGeek> which caused trouble for some people who were not using UUID-based
[05:44] <PureEvilGeek> filesystem mounts.
[05:44] <PureEvilGeek> "
[05:44] <shiester_miester> i see
[05:44] <n2diy> shiester_miester: They got their wires crossed, and the guy that released it thought it was ready for prime time, when it still had bugs in it.
[05:44] <shiester_miester> ah ok
[05:44] <teer2> wow - very obscure kernel security holes.  they couldn't wait another couple months?
[05:44] <shiester_miester> i guess those sort of things are the price you pay for the loose management structure of large open source projects
[05:45] <contraY> can someone help me how to play DVDs?
[05:45] <contraY> I am getting this error
[05:45] <shiester_miester> but theyre only human, so its not like we could hold it against them :P theyre providing a free service and doing the best they can, after all
[05:45] <n2diy> shiester_miester: Yep, stuff happens, but it gets fixed in a hurry, for free.
[05:45] <shiester_miester> thats why i <3 open source
[05:46] <contraY> I install Medibuntu and DVD still not working
[05:46] <vbabiy> Gnea: don't you wish people would stick around and help other not get what they need and leave
[05:46] <teer2> that's cool - I just hate to reboot - causes problems (or shows problems)
[05:46] <n2diy> ! Medibuntu
[05:46] <ubotu> medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[05:46] <vbabiy> contraY: what are you try to play i twith
[05:46] <PurpZeY_> I have no problem with the updates, but I am still trigger shy everytime I do one.
[05:46] <contraY> vbabiy: a DVD
[05:46] <vbabiy> what player
[05:46] <contraY> vbabiy: BLADE dvd
[05:46] <contraY> Kaffeine
[05:46] <vbabiy> contraY: try mplayer
[05:46] <Gnea> vbabiy: yeah, but then i also understand that things can happen unexpectedly
[05:46] <shiester_miester> dammit, do u guys remember helping me out with my windows-ubuntu file sharing?  im trying to do them but the IRC channels got too many new lines and i lost the advice that was given :'( whoever it was that helped me, can you repeat what  you said?
[05:47] <teer2> makes it hard for groups like system76 to support when the kernel changes
[05:47] <Gnea> that reminds me, i should see if i can get kino working again
[05:47] <shiester_miester> i thikn you said something, Gnea
[05:47] <contraY> vbabiy: why... I wanna use Kaffeine, it says Play DVD why should't it   be able to play it?
[05:47] <JoelR> Hello i have just installed ubuntu fiesty fawn in a thinkpad t60 but it didn recognize my wireless card, i do a lspci and it tells me this: 03:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. Unknown device 0024 (rev 01) what nis is it?
[05:47] <shiester_miester> i should have made copypasta right away :(
[05:47] <voidfull> what is a good bittorrent program for linux :) ?
[05:47] <Gnea> i made some videos today, should edit them before putting them online :)
[05:47] <gnomefreak> !dvd > contraY (please read your pm from ubotu)
[05:47] <vbabiy> contraY: well try from the terminal and see if it throws any errors
[05:47] <shiester_miester> voidfull, azureus, utorrent
[05:48] <defrysk> contraY, some apps are better suited to play dvd's like mplayer and/or vlc
[05:48] <PurpZeY_> voidfull: I hear deluge or azureus
[05:48] <shiester_miester> lol
[05:48] <teer2> the one that comes with the distro is great for downloading - it doesn't seem to upload tho
[05:48] <contraY> wonderful now it crashed with SIGDEV messge
[05:48] <shiester_miester> PurpZeY, your powers of post-prophecy are astounding
[05:48] <teer2> contraY: what crashed?
[05:48] <gnomefreak> contraY: your missing libdvdcss (i think is the name of it)
[05:48] <voidfull> but the one that comes wiht the distro doesn't resume downloads after i close it and open it again
[05:48] <bruenig> utorrent is the best
[05:48] <shiester_miester> bruenig, how so?
[05:48] <vbabiy> bruenig: utorrent is only for windows
[05:49] <gnomefreak> contraY: the repo you are using is missing that package iirc
[05:49] <bruenig> I am using utorrent right now
[05:49] <defrysk> if you like utorrent, try ktorrent
[05:49] <n2diy> Can I configure Nautilus to _not_ abbreviate files sizes?
[05:49] <bruenig> shiester_miester, rss filtering
[05:49] <shiester_miester> what do you need rss feeds for with a bitorrent client :/
[05:49] <vbabiy> bruenig: are you using it in linux
[05:49] <gnomefreak> contraY: or you didnt set region
[05:49] <lasking> Please install the KDE development packages, what should i do? guys
[05:49] <bruenig> shiester_miester, autodownload dailyshow and colbert report
[05:49] <bruenig> shiester_miester, and others
[05:49] <lazaruslupine> utorrent works in wine
[05:49] <shiester_miester> ah for automatic downloading...yeah i guess thats a decent feature
[05:49] <bruenig> vbabiy, wine yeah
[05:49] <gnomefreak> lasking: see kubuntu.org for instruction on that
[05:49] <contraY> gnomefreak: I libdvdcss2 or libdvdcss? I have the one that says 2
[05:50] <defrysk> ktorrent has an rssfeed plugin
[05:50] <vbabiy> bruenig: o ok
[05:50] <vbabiy> I wish he would port it to linux
[05:50] <contraY> gnomefreak: I want region free, how do I do that?
[05:50] <gnomefreak> contraY: that should be fine than. try reading the link ubotu sent you abotu setting region
[05:50] <shiester_miester> defrysk, has anyone had problems running azureus, specifically with beryl?
[05:50] <gnomefreak> contraY: you have to choose one
[05:50] <bruenig> shiester_miester, it is awesome, seeing as daily show and colbert report show at 11 PM meaning they get released at like 2 AM or so, wake up and it is waiting
[05:50] <shiester_miester> whoops, -defrysk...i didnt mean to ask you that :P
[05:50] <defrysk> shiester_miester, I have tried beryl, but have no use for it
[05:51] <lasking> gnomefreak: why you tell how to apt-get install it?
[05:51] <shiester_miester> yeah i meant to ask that to the channel and put your name on it mysteriously by accident
[05:51] <bruenig> shiester_miester, it probably consumed so much memory that beryl just decided to stop
[05:51] <shiester_miester> *has anyone had problems running azureus, specifically with beryl, or at all?
[05:51] <gnomefreak> lasking: read kubuntu.org you cant just install them you have to do other things
[05:51] <shiester_miester> i havent used it yet, but ive heard that some people have issues with it
[05:51] <defrysk> shiester_miester, I use azureus, but not the .deb package, I have it locally installed , works better that way
[05:52] <shiester_miester> what do you mean, "locally installed"?
[05:52] <shiester_miester> like you rebuilt it from source into a directory all by itself
[05:52] <vbabiy> Okay guys well I got to go to bed so good night to all
[05:52] <bruenig> shiester_miester, there are issues with azureus, at least there were at one time from a design perspective. There are certain things like plugins that are installed into directories that are owned by root meaning that you can't install them through azureus unless I guess if you run it as root which most people don't. You get permission denied errors
[05:52] <shiester_miester> gnight, vbabiy
[05:52] <defrysk> shiester_miester, downloaded the azureus package and unpacked in my /home/username
[05:52] <tyoc> Hey people how do I force the elimination of a package without take care of the breaked dependencyes????
[05:52] <sid> Is there an mplayer option to make sure the screen doesn't go blank? totem does this by default
[05:52] <bruenig> shiester_miester, the best way to do it, if you must, is install it into /opt and chown everything to your user
[05:52] <sid> ie, if I play a movie with mplayer, every 20 minutes the screen goes blank
[05:52] <contraY> by the way I don't have /dev/dvd
[05:52] <shiester_miester> oh ok
[05:53] <defrysk> sid turn off your screensaver
[05:53] <contraY> and the region is already set
[05:53] <shiester_miester> im still very unfamiliar with the way linux installs things...it seems to just put files in all kinds of different places that i dont know what they are for :/
[05:53] <contraY> why I don't have /dev/dvd?
[05:53] <sid> defrysk: Where do I do that?
[05:53] <defrysk> sid in preferences somewhere
[05:53] <gnomefreak> contraY: what makes you think you dont have it?
[05:53] <shiester_miester> sid, system -> preferences -> screensaver
[05:54] <contraY> the DVD is set to /dev/scd0
[05:55] <defrysk> sid , system> preferences > screensaver
[05:55] <contraY> gnomefreak: /cause I look in the /dev/ dir
[05:55] <gnomefreak> contraY: did you look in fstab to be sure?
[05:55] <bruenig> shiester_miester, it is all very standard once you get it. The issue is though that when you install things, you do so as root. But azureus downloads and installs plugins while you are using it, i.e. not through the package management. But you use azureus as a regular user not as root
[05:55] <contraY> and I doesn't show when I tab it
[05:55] <gnomefreak> contraY: look in fstab not in /dev
[05:55] <shiester_miester> ah i see
[05:55] <contraY> gnomefreak: yep it set to /dev/scd0       /media/cdrom0
[05:55] <contraY> oh wait
[05:55] <contraY> media
[05:55] <shiester_miester> anyway, im off to study for an exam, cya everyone
[05:55] <ircblood> l8r
[05:55] <contraY> gnomefreak: and it isn't in /media directory
[05:55] <contraY> this is odd
[05:56] <twiztr> HDA1-WindowsXP,HDA2-Ubuntu,HDB1-StorageNTFS,HDB2-Storage*nix. I was running Untuntu, decided to reboot into WinXP, the selectOS screen, selected WinXP, got the SafeMode/Normal/Etc screen, chose Normal, then the box just rebooted. Now it turns on, doesn't recognize either HD, just shows them both as 'Unknown Devices'. It will boot into my WinXP install disc, but only the secondary HD shows up. So I ran install on HDB2, and then it did
[05:56] <twiztr> the reboot into Windows thing, and it won't install because BIOS isn't recognizing my HDs still. So I took out HDA because i thought it failed, and that's why nothing is working, but it is giving me the same problem.
[05:57] <cje> hi, I am involved with a project to help introduce FOSS to newbies.  It's called the Digital Tipping Point.  We are building a film on-line about the basic values underlying Ubuntu:  community, sharing, and empowerment with FOSS computers.  I am looking for people who are interested in doing video editing for the project.  Is this chat a good place to talk about this topic?
[05:57] <contraY> oh my bad I do have /dev/dvd
[05:58] <andreavb> My hibernation doesn't work: it only locks the screen. How can I check/fix it?
[05:58] <n2diy> cje: I'm sure the folks in #ubuntu-marketing would be interested in this project.
[05:58] <bullgard4> lsmod lists 'parport' although my computer does not have a parallel port. Does Ubuntu load this module prophylactically, or is there a need for it for other reasons?
[05:59] <cje> n2diy: k, I will open a new channel, thanks!
[05:59] <contraY> OMG this is a disaster
[05:59] <twoblackeyes_> have a question - my Thinkpad X31 doesn't wake from sleep any more after upgrading to Feisty
[05:59] <n2diy> cje: it is open, it is a standard Ubuntu channel
[05:59] <twoblackeyes_> has anyone else's notebook run into this proble,?
[05:59] <gnomefreak> contraY: you are missing a lib or you have wrong region set
[06:00] <contraY> what's supposed to be my region? Do I set that in Kaffeine or what?
[06:00] <logmein> twoblackeyes: might have something to do with new power management features of feisty
[06:00] <gnomefreak> contraY: without an exact error its gonna be hard to say exactly what you are missing
[06:00] <ircblood> Twiztr: do u have a swap partition?
[06:00] <cje> n2diy: heh, sorry, I meant I will open a new tab in my xchat window.  Heh.  sorry.
[06:00] <gnomefreak> contraY: the dvd's region
[06:00] <logmein> twoblackeyes: I had to turn up usb power when using ndiswrapper for wireless adapter
[06:00] <gnomefreak> contraY: read the link ubotu sent you before.
[06:00] <n2diy> cje: :), it is quite now.
[06:00] <twoblackeyes_> logmein: hmm, i don
[06:00] <twoblackeyes_> 't think I'm using ndiswrapper
[06:00] <cje> n2diy: did you mean quiet now?
[06:00] <gnomefreak> contraY: it gives you the command pretty much cut and paste
[06:00] <contraY> gnomefreak: I got the exact output
[06:00] <logmein> twoblackeyes: you use electricity though so we got something in common :)
[06:01] <contraY> gnomefreak: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26073/
[06:01] <twoblackeyes_> heh
[06:01] <bullgard4> twoblackeyes_: Please analys your dmesg and report them if you need help then.
[06:01] <bullgard4> analyse
[06:01] <logmein> twoblackeyes: might want to search the forums and find out what this new feature is called
[06:01] <contraY> gnomefreak: in Gentoo all I have to do is mplayer /dev/hdc and it'll play
[06:01] <gnomefreak> contraY: do you have libxine-extracodecs installed?
[06:01] <gnomefreak> contraY: and what version is it?
[06:02] <twoblackeyes_> bullgard4: what am I looking for in dmesg?
[06:02] <twoblackeyes_> i've got a forum post going too but folks seem to be stumped
[06:02] <contraY> gnomefreak: Kubuntu Fiesta
[06:02] <twoblackeyes_> several other people having the same problem
[06:02] <gnomefreak> contraY: what version of libxine-extracodecs do you have installed
[06:02] <bullgard4> twoblackeyes_: for error messages which might have a relation to your new opearting system.
[06:03] <bullgard4> operating
[06:03] <contraY> gnomefreak: oh hold on
[06:03] <contraY> gnomefreak: by the way mplayer /dev/scd0 DOES work but kinda glitchi
[06:03] <contraY> I get this thing a52: CRC check failuer
[06:04] <gnomefreak> contraY: because you are missing a package
[06:04] <contraY> ohh k hold on
[06:04] <gnomefreak> contraY: you play it with mplayer than since you cant help me help you.
[06:04] <twoblackeyes_> bullgard4: i'm guessing it has something to do with the IBM ACPI extras not meshing with something in Feisty
[06:04] <twoblackeyes_> because it worked just fine under 6.10
[06:05] <contraY> gnomefreak: I WAS missing libxine-extracodecs
[06:05] <gnomefreak> i know
[06:05] <contraY> let's see if this works now
[06:05] <gnomefreak> said that up there
[06:05] <gnomefreak> you may be missing more as well
[06:05] <bullgard4> twoblackeyes_: That might well be. But you need to narrow down possible causes in order to finally troubleshoot.
[06:05] <contraY> oh now it's playing
[06:05] <contraY> gnomefreak: what else might I be missing?
[06:06] <contraY> then Medibuntu are a bunch of liears
[06:06] <gnomefreak> but since im not infront of your pc i dont know. If you read the link ubotu sent you you wouldnt have spent this much time it tells you exactly what you need to install
[06:06] <lasking> gnomefreak: do you know how to install all KDE development packages?
[06:06] <twoblackeyes_> bullgard4: I'm unfamiliar with the output I'm looking at here so I'm not quite sure how to proceed
[06:06] <gnomefreak> contraY: no they have packages we cant have
[06:06] <gnomefreak> lasking: yes but i told you where to look. either read it or do as Jucato sain in #kubuntu
[06:07] <bullgard4> twoblackeyes_: Can you produce an output of the dmesg command?
[06:07] <jamman> lasking, try something like sudo apt-get install *dev, althought that would be all dev packages...
[06:07] <contraY> gnomefreak: so what kinda packages should I need to complete the circle here?
[06:07] <twoblackeyes_> bullgard4: yeah I'm looking at it now
[06:07] <gnomefreak> !restricted | contraY
[06:07] <ubotu> contraY: 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
[06:07] <gnomefreak> contraY: read the site
[06:08] <twoblackeyes_> bullgard4: there's this: [    4.740000]  PM: Resume from disk failed.
[06:08] <contraY> well that site redirect me to Medibuntu for Fiesta instructions, don't konw what else do
[06:08] <twoblackeyes_> bullgard4: could be relevant
[06:08] <bullgard4> twoblackeyes_: Yes it is.
[06:09] <gnomefreak> contraY: it doesnt redirect you
[06:09] <bullgard4> twoblackeyes_: But this is alone is fairly trivial. There are probably more hints in dmesg.
[06:09] <twoblackeyes_> hmm
[06:09] <ircblood> what should i program C/C++ with?
[06:10] <tyler_d> how do I tell if duo-core is working?
[06:10] <gnomefreak> contraY: since you dont feel like looking i will give you it this time but people will not be jumping out of the woodwork to help someone that chooses not to read for them selves
[06:10] <gnomefreak> contraY: sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-pitfdll gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse gxine libxine-main1 libxine-extracodecs
[06:10] <bullgard4> twoblackeyes_: pastebin your dmesg output so that knowledgeable people can analyze it and advise you.
[06:10] <twoblackeyes_> the whole thing? it's large
[06:11] <bullgard4> twoblackeyes_: The storage of pastebin is large enough.
[06:11] <marfeath> What is a good dreamweaver alternative for linux?
[06:11] <twoblackeyes_> ok here it comes

[06:14] <gnomefreak> tyler_d: konqueror, epiphany, galeon, links2, lynx and many more
[06:15] <cwatson> TazzY: you should install it with ubuntu's package manager
[06:15] <NineTails> hi
[06:15] <contraY> gnomefreak: I know that, just other channels say "Kick out" instead of "has left"
[06:15] <eliran> sup?
[06:15] <contraY> lol
[06:15] <defrysk> contraY, its the script that does it
[06:15] <OmegaCenti> c0rrupt`: A little afk, but with further research it seems like server laout in xorg need to have an entry of "AIGLX" "off" and you need to remove the line in modules about glx..
[06:15] <TazzY> cwatson: i cant found-it in software list.. :(
[06:15] <tyler_d> gnomefreak: suggestion?
[06:15] <OmegaCenti> going afk again
[06:15] <evilfourzero> How can I watch another pts?

[06:15] <NineTails> I'll soon find out
[06:15] <c0rrupt`> how do i remove the lin in modules
[06:15] <gnomefreak> tyler_d: i use links2 most but its not GUI
[06:15] <c0rrupt`> OmegaCenti, ^^
[06:16] <tyler_d> gnomefreak: konqueror is a kde app... problems in gnome?
[06:16] <erWp64L> I need to update rtorrent to the latest stable version, do I put the tar.gz file in /usr/local when I'm going to install?
[06:16] <gnomefreak> tyler_d: nope runs fine in gnome
[06:16] <tyler_d> gnomefreak: perfect, ty
[06:16] <dhamma> anyone know if it's necessary to create a file system on a partition before you add it to pv, vg, lv in lvm?
[06:16] <cwatson> TazzY: oops sorry, I was thinking of XMMS
[06:17] <c0rrupt`> OmegaCenti, in pclinuxos, i used glx and it worked
[06:17] <c0rrupt`> OmegaCenti, ill post the xorgconf that pclinuxos produced
[06:17] <gnomefreak> defrysk: the script can use /k as well but its perfered that we use remove
[06:17] <xn> The following message offen appears, what does it mean ? "GSlice: g_thread_init() must be called before all other GLib functions; memory corruption due to late invocation of g_thread_init() has been detected; this program is likely to crash, leak or unexpectedly abort soon..."
[06:17] <evilfourzero> How can I 'watch' another pts? I tried cat /dev/pts/3 but it's output was horribe.. And I don't want to use screen
[06:17] <gnomefreak> xn: vlc?
[06:17] <Chore-Boy> hey, u know how when you move a window to the edge of the screen, and it turns the cube, and puts it on the next screen... well mine stopped turning and going to the next desktop.... i check the desktop effects, and it says that the workspace on a cube is still on... anybody know whats up?
[06:17] <c0rrupt`> OmegaCenti, http://nopaste.com/p/aAEt4EXL3
[06:17] <gnomefreak> xn: is it warning?
[06:17] <TazzY> cwatson: no problem.. :) what command gotta use in terminal to install XAMMP ? The kit folder is on desktop. TNX
[06:17] <xn> yes
[06:18] <gnomefreak> xn: are you on gutsy?
[06:18] <lasking> gnomefreak: your type speed   my hero!
[06:18] <xn> yes!
[06:18] <gnomefreak> xn: join #ubuntu+1
[06:18] <gnomefreak> xn: btw live with it for now
[06:18] <xn> thanks!
[06:18] <defrysk> gnomefreak, I thought the script removes also with the /k command
[06:18] <gnomefreak> nope /ar is remove
[06:19] <defrysk> gnomefreak, on mine it defaults to remove afaIk
[06:19] <defrysk> gnomefreak, but be a version issue
[06:19] <mdious> erWp64L:  that should work...i like to put stuff in a separate package directory then copy over later...don't know why, I'm just stupid ;)
[06:19] <gnomefreak> maybe different scripts
[06:19] <cwatson> TazzY: I'm not sure about what command to run, I would recommend just installing mysql, phpmyadmin, and apache through synaptic.
[06:19] <erWp64L> mdious: Thanks
[06:19] <defrysk> gnomefreak, got mine from seveas
[06:20] <gnomefreak> defrysk: i didnt

[06:45] <TakeOut{u}> you could try put Xubuntu on it
[06:45] <bruenig> untung, go with xubuntu if you are looking for an ubuntu OS, zenwalk is probably better for something that small

[06:48] <heret|c> lol.. ubuntu screwed yer box ASTP001
[06:48] <ASTP001> Is does say "not mounted" in gparted
[06:48] <bruenig> ASTP001, it is a question, as in were you able to boot into before and now you aren't or did you just install ubuntu and try to boot into windows and it didn't work?
[06:49] <neii> where i can find SWAT (Samba Web Admini Tools ) for Ubuntu ?
[06:49] <bruenig> !samba
[06:49] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[06:49] <ASTP001> Yeah, I was able to boot windows, then I installed ubuntu.... grub couldn't boot windows
[06:49] <kitchenlaptop> neii: apt-get install swat   ??
[06:49] <ASTP001> So I tried sgd
[06:49] <bruenig> !info swat
[06:49] <ubotu> swat: Samba Web Administration Tool. In component main, is optional. Version 3.0.24-2ubuntu1.2 (feisty), package size 800 kB, installed size 2180 kB
[06:50] <ASTP001> Then SGD did something weird
[06:50] <bruenig> ASTP001, perhaps windows got screwed, did you have to resize the windows partition during install?
[06:50] <ASTP001> And then it stared to say "unable to detect filesystem"
[06:50] <untung> bruenig: i checked zenwalk screen shoot is nice. does it support  wireless LAN pcmcia card?
[06:50] <ASTP001> I did...
[06:50] <neii> to get the SWAT ?
[06:50] <bruenig> neii, what kitchenlaptop said
[06:50] <ASTP001> But I had all the data in it
[06:51] <eduhat> are there any tools that i can use to burn ISO's that are in the repo already?
[06:51] <bruenig> ASTP001, probably screwed it up then
[06:51] <illmortal> Anyone know if 55C/131F is an ok temperature for my PC?
[06:51] <ASTP001> Hmm
[06:51] <bruenig> eduhat, cdrecord and growisofs should already be installed
[06:51] <kitchenlaptop> so, anybody have any ideas why i wouldn't get any sound after using a usb sound device?  Sound worked before i touched the usb device using the onboard sound.  lsmod output here: http://pastebin.ca/573434
[06:51] <bruenig> eduhat, or you may need dvd+rw-tools
[06:51] <Tom47> ASTP001: friendly suggestion pls use the nick of the person you are addressing to remove ambiguity and ensure they see yr message
[06:51] <bruenig> !prefix
[06:51] <ubotu> If you prefix your lines with the nickname of the person you're talking to, you have a greater chance that that person reads your messages
[06:51] <rich1> how do i use a window manager to control placement of windows?
[06:52] <mortuis99> tazzy any luck?
[06:52] <illmortal> Anyone know if 55C/131F is an ok temperature for a PC? Should it be cooler?
[06:52] <ASTP001> I am  talking to anyone who is willing to help me, tom47
[06:52] <bruenig> ASTP001, no he means if you are answering a question, put the person's name who asked it in your response
[06:52] <TaJMoX> illmortal : is it 55C at high cpu or at idle?
[06:52] <ASTP001> Oh
[06:52] <tonyyarusso> illmortal: Cooler is better, but that's not terribly uncommon.
[06:52] <|_ocke> illmortal, thats just fine
[06:52] <ASTP001> Sry
[06:53] <|_ocke> mine was running at 75C last week
[06:53] <Tom47> rich1 i am not sure if this answers your question but my windows open usually exactly where they were when i last used the program
[06:53] <ASTP001> Well gparted says "not mounted"
[06:53] <illmortal> TaJMoX that was at 10 minutes of BIOS running... I was watching the temperature for 10 minutes.
[06:53] <neii> how to install SWAT in ubuntu ? please advise
[06:53] <ASTP001> So is there a way I can mount it?
[06:53] <kitchenlaptop> neii: sudo apt-get install swat
[06:53] <TaJMoX> illmortal : you have problems.
[06:53] <timephoenix> so no advances on recovering my partition? the data recovery man couldn't do it, so I guess I just need to clear off the drive somehow
[06:54] <brylie> ASTP001, if you type the first few letters of somebody's nic and then hit the TAB key your IRC client should auto-complete their nick. Try it :)
[06:54] <eduhat> yeah i have no idea how to use cdrecord.
[06:54] <bruenig> eduhat, cdrecord dev=/dev/whatever file.iso
[06:54] <ASTP001> sry brylie
[06:54] <illmortal> Tajmox... what should I do?... It was runnin 46C with the case completely off.
[06:55] <illmortal> In BIOS.
[06:55] <brylie> ASTP001, pretty cool eh? ;-)
[06:55] <kitchenlaptop> illmortal: honestly 55C shouldn't be too bad
[06:55] <ASTP001> Nah, I just typed it up
[06:55] <TaJMoX> illmortal : keep the case off - you got a can of air ?
[06:55] <ASTP001> Didn't complete anything....>.>
[06:55] <illmortal> tajmox... I already cleaned my PC ><
[06:56] <brylie> ah.. well auto-complete is handy. I hope you can follow poeple's instructions better when they're helping you fix your PC . . .
[06:56] <ASTP001> Sry brylie
[06:56] <rich1> Tom47: thanks.  it doesn't work that way for me in ubuntu.
[06:56] <TaJMoX> illmortal : ah well it's the cpu specifically.   carefully take off the cooler and clean it out maybe?
[06:56] <Tom47> rich1 which program???
[06:56] <ASTP001> so brylie or bruenig.... How can I mount it?
[06:56] <rich1> Tom47: i'm downloading kde now to see if it works that way there.
[06:57] <eduhat> thats pretty easy. i like it :)
[06:57] <illmortal> tajmox, the cooler?...
[06:57] <brylie> ASTP001, what are you trying to mount?
[06:57] <illmortal> the heatsink?
[06:57] <bruenig> ASTP001, what is its /dev/name and what is the filesystem, ntfs probably?
[06:57] <neii> SWAT , how to install it
[06:57] <rich1> Tom47: it's an rpg called tomenet.  i want it to open 6 windows in specific places.
[06:57] <ASTP001> the windows partition brylie
[06:57] <kitchenlaptop> neii: for the third time:  sudo apt-get install swat
[06:57] <epp> Is it possible to run dual monitors and have each monitor display a workspace?
[06:57] <brylie> ASTP001, to access it's contents in linux?
[06:58] <TaJMoX> illmortal : the big thing on top of your cpu
[06:58] <ASTP001> yes
[06:58] <bruenig> ASTP001, answer my questions
[06:58] <emman101> im back... Im using Code block IDE for C, do you have any idea why it can find CONIO.H library ?
[06:58] <vecina> When im in xgl my text is itty bitty... and compiz doesnt have half the effects beryl has. why does berylturn my screen white? :(
[06:58] <bruenig> !headers
[06:58] <ubotu> To install the Linux (kernel) headers, open a terminal and: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) To install headers for libraries, you need the accompanying -dev packages
[06:58] <Flannel> emman101: do you have build-essential installed?
[06:58] <bruenig> !find libc
[06:58] <ubotu> Found: apt, apt-utils, glibc-doc, klibc-utils, libc6 (and 503 others)
[06:58] <ASTP001> bruenig... what were they? lol
[06:58] <bruenig> !find libc-dev
[06:58] <ubotu> Found: libc6-dev, libklibc-dev, dietlibc-dev, libuclibc-dev, linux-libc-dev
[06:58] <brylie> ASTP001, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[06:59] <bruenig> emman101, try one of those ^ sudo apt-get install them
[06:59] <rich1> Tom47: looking on forums, it looks like kde offers window placement.
[06:59] <emman101> Flannel: yah
[06:59] <bulmer> emman101: umm typically headers are lowercase  so you think it maybe conio.h ?
[06:59] <Nutubuntu> I'm trying to install Feisty on two new disks, 300GB and 250GB, from the alternate CD, b/c I want to set up RAID1. I went thru this once, then tried to blast the partitions and re-do, but the install seems to keep seeing one of the raid devices. I think if I could get back to it not seeing any raid devices or partitions and just redo the whole install, I'd be happy. How can I get rid of that "phantom" raid device?
[06:59] <illmortal> tajmox
[06:59] <emman101> bulmer: yah I know
[06:59] <kitchenlaptop> illmortal:  this new fangled hard drive mounting system just might help your temperature problems:  http://www.bbspot.com/Images/News_Features/2004/05/attaching.jpg
[06:59] <TaJMoX> illmortal
[06:59] <illmortal> i typed this command: cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/temperature
[06:59] <illmortal> temperature:             40 C
[06:59] <illmortal> ^ that's what it claims >.>
[07:00] <TaJMoX> illmortal thats good
[07:00] <emman101> bulmer: but it can't find the conio.h the stdio.h is ok
[07:00] <illmortal> but is that accurate if my BIOS says it's 55C?
[07:00] <TaJMoX> illmortal not sure... what does acpi -t say
[07:00] <ASTP001> Hmm also it says filesystem unknown, so it's not ntfs anymore.... brylie, bruenig
[07:00] <mdious> illmortal:  thanks for that temperature stuff ^_^
[07:00] <emman101> bruenig: what shoud I install further?
[07:00] <new_to_ubuntu> is it a good idea to install Ubuntu on a brand new Dell, and then install Windows XP and Vista in virtual servers if I am new to Ubuntu ?
[07:00] <bulmer> emman101: i dont have conio.h either, which program requires that library?
[07:00] <brylie> ASTP001, fat32 then?
[07:00] <eduhat> just thought i would let you guys know but i am in love with ubuntu :)
[07:01] <emman101> bruenig:color
[07:01] <ASTP001> It used to be ntfs before brylie
[07:01] <illmortal>  Thermal 1: ok, 40.0 degrees C
[07:01] <ASTP001> Should I format it?
[07:01] <mdious> new_to_ubuntu:  it's a good idea to install ubuntu...forget about the rest....although i always found it easier to install windows first...that way grub...usually finds windows easily with no work
[07:01] <emman101> bruenig:getche()
[07:01] <emman101> bruenig:do you have alternatives?
[07:01] <brylie> ASTP001, format it yea.and install windows as a virtual machine perhaps?
[07:01] <TaJMoX> illmortal : not sure... if you're having crashes or slowdowns, then there is a problem.
[07:02] <illmortal> tajmox... oh no... no slowdowns nor crashes :)
[07:02] <neii> i just downloaded novell client for linux (from www.novell.com) in RPM, how to install into ubuntu ?
[07:02] <ASTP001> What do you mean, as a virtual machine? and can I recover the files brylie?
[07:02] <brylie> mdious, have yau heard of Wubi?
[07:02] <bruenig> emman101, did you install all of those -dev
[07:02] <illmortal> i just wanna keep my PC as cool as possible.
[07:02] <neii> is it compatible ?
[07:02] <illmortal> thank you tajmox
[07:02] <TaJMoX> illmortal : then dont worry until you have to - but keep an eye on that temp - maybe get sensor applet
[07:02] <bruenig> ASTP001, what does sudo fdisk -l tell you about it
[07:02] <Dr_willis> neii,  use 'alien' but Id really suggest you look HARD for  a deb package.
[07:02] <bulmer> neii: i dont know, try alien to convert from rpm to .deb
[07:02] <brylie> ASTP001, copy the files to an external storage device?
[07:02] <illmortal> sensor applet?
[07:02] <emman101> bruenig: I suppose I did already
[07:02] <Flannel> neii: technically you can use alien.  Do you have other options? (deb is best, obviously), how about source?
[07:03] <mdious> brylie:  nope what is it?
[07:03] <tyler_d> !flash
[07:03] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[07:03] <brylie> mdious, http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[07:03] <epp> if you have two monitors, is it possible to setup xorg to have a workspace on each of them?
[07:03] <brylie> !wubi
[07:03] <ubotu> wubi is an unofficial Ubuntu installer for Windows users - more info is at http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[07:03] <TaJMoX> illmortal : sudo apt-get install sensors-applet      then you can add the applet to your panel so you can always see the temp
[07:03] <illmortal> tajmox, would you recommend me an applet that would be good to use?
[07:03] <ASTP001> Do you want me to copy paste it here brylie?
[07:03] <illmortal> sweet, thanks tajmox!!
[07:03] <new_to_ubuntu> I'm receiving a new Dell tomorrow, running Vista...  I was thinking of reformatting my drive and doing a clean install of Ubuntu....  after that install XP and Vista in virtual machine mode (I need XP and Vista for a few applications).
[07:03] <emman101> bruenig: are you using code block for quite a while already?
[07:03] <brylie> no ASTP001 I mean to copy your data to a backup device.
[07:03] <neii> let me try
[07:04] <mdious> brylie:  that sounds familiar now, I just didn't know what it was called
[07:04] <illmortal> LMAO @ VISTA
[07:04] <rollerskatejamms> t inWhat is it in Ubuntu that when you type a command for an app that isn't installed, it tells you to apt-get install that application?
[07:04] <Dr_willis> new_to_ubuntu,  may be better to get a 2nd hd and just dualboot.
[07:04] <ASTP001> What brylie, I don't understand...
[07:04] <bruenig> emman101, I am not on ubuntu, most distros that people use for development would come with that stuff
[07:04] <bruenig> brylie, he isn't even paying attention I would just let him be
[07:04] <brylie> !backu!backup > ASTP001
[07:05] <brylie> !backup > ASTP001
[07:05] <illmortal> tajmox... where would I find the applet I Just downloaded?
[07:05] <brylie> bruenig, he might not know how to run fdisk
[07:06] <illmortal> CPU frequency?
[07:06] <mdious> new_to_ubuntu:  need vista?  I feel for you :(
[07:06] <ASTP001> brylie, there is nothing to back up for me...
[07:06] <illmortal> ah hardware sensor
[07:06] <brylie> ASTP001, you have no important data?
[07:06] <ASTP001> All the data was in the windows partition brylie, and I can't acess it
[07:06] <Ra|Ka> can anyone help me unscrable an 64bit encrypted asci string?
[07:07] <epp> can i setup my two moniters to show 2 different workspaces?
[07:07] <cwatson> Ra|Ka: encrypted or encoded?
[07:07] <brylie> ASTP001, so you can not boot into windows?
[07:07] <ASTP001> No brylie, I can't....
[07:07] <Ra|Ka> encoded and encrypted
[07:07] <TaJMoX> illmortal : right click on the panel and click add to panel
[07:07] <Ra|Ka> thanks TaJMoX
[07:07] <ASTP001> And now I can't even acess the partiton cuz SGD did something to it
[07:08] <TaJMoX> Ra|Ka youre...welcome?
[07:08] <brylie> ASTP001, and this is after you installed ubuntu that you were unable to boot into windows?
[07:08] <cwatson> Ra|Ka: Interesting, It is easy to decode. But I don't think I could decrypt it
[07:08] <ASTP001> brylie, yea
[07:08] <ant-> epp, #ubuntu-effects
[07:08] <fail> Anyone have any idea how to emulate a mouse using the keyboard?
[07:08] <epp> ant-, thx
[07:09] <new_to_ubuntu> really need XP for a few applications (Accounting: Simply Accounting by Sage, CRM: Act! by Sage, Dreamweaver and Filemaker). All the rest I could do with Ubuntu I think. I don't think Vista would be a necessity.
[07:09] <fail> I've been searching and seraching
[07:09] <brylie> ASTP001, is it POSSIBLE that you installed ubuntu into the windows partition?
[07:09] <tyler_d> how would I get the kde package insatalled, the one available with kubuntu?
[07:09] <fail> But I can't find anything on it
[07:09] <ASTP001> No brylie
[07:09] <Ra|Ka> encrypting asci is easy peazy lemon squeezy
[07:09] <Flannel> tyler_d: Which package?  You want Kubuntu?
[07:09] <brylie> ASTP001, you have booted into windows since installing ubuntu then?
[07:09] <mortuis99> new_to_ubuntu do u run ACT?
[07:09] <Flannel> tyler_d: that's kubuntu-desktop
[07:09] <ASTP001> The windows partition is ntfs... and it created a ext3 partition and that's where linux is installed
[07:09] <cwatson> ha ha
[07:10] <ASTP001> No brylie, I havn't...
[07:10] <Ra|Ka> all you need is a good hammer cwatson ;)
[07:10] <tyler_d> Flannel: first, hey flannel long time. second the customized one that comes with kubuntu?
[07:10] <mdious> stupid question...do i need the config editor in thunderbird to make the time...not be displayed as 24 hour format?
[07:10] <cwatson> :)
[07:10] <tyler_d> Flannel: and happy fathers day mang
[07:10] <Flannel> tyler_d: Customized what?  And howdy howdy.  You too.
[07:10] <eduhat> what do you guys think is better language for me to start learning? perl or python? i am going to be making like text based games like a little hacking adventure or something. and maybe some utilities if i have to.
[07:11] <tyler_d> Flannel: just the default kde that comes with kubuntu?
[07:11] <brylie> ASTP001, see if you can do a system repair from your windows disk
[07:11] <Flannel> tyler_d: right, you want `kubuntu-desktop`
[07:11] <ASTP001> What do you mean brylie?
[07:11] <Flannel> eduhat: theyre both fine languages to learn.  Python is used a lot in Ubuntu (making most GUI-glue) but so is perl.
[07:11] <ASTP001> The last time I did system repair
[07:11] <Ra|Ka> eduhat, I'd recommend java for linux, or .NET for windows
[07:11] <fail> Apparently X11 has keyboard mouse emulation built in
[07:11] <tyler_d> Flannel: perfect, thank-you again
[07:11] <ASTP001> Windows didn't work, and it broke ubuntu, brylie
[07:11] <eduhat> Flannel: if you were in my position which would you use?
[07:12] <pyrak> can i have some advice on what jukebox to use?  I want something just like itunes but with ogg support, so that means i need podcasting, video viewing (if possible), interfacing with my ipod, and network recognition from itunes if possible
[07:12] <eduhat> Ra|Ka: well. im not so interested in java.
[07:12] <Ra|Ka> I think python and perl are only scripting languages
[07:12] <brylie> ASTP001, what is broken with ubuntu?
[07:12] <Flannel> eduhat: well, I know and love perl.  But if you're looking to do GUI stuffs, python is much easier (gtk bindings).
[07:12] <mortuis99> new_to_ubuntu do u run ACT?
[07:12] <Ra|Ka> java has it all baby
[07:12] <Dr_willis> 'ONLY scripting' ? :)
[07:12] <cwatson> pyrak: I like rythmbox and banshee
[07:12] <new_to_ubuntu> will XP run fairly fast in virtual machine mode ?
[07:13] <pyrak> cwatson, i have both of those, they look kinda ugly, is there a way to skin them?
[07:13] <eduhat> Flannel: well after one of these two languages im moving onto perl
[07:13] <Dr_willis> new_to_ubuntu,  if ya got a decent box.  it will run ok. dont expect 3d games however.
[07:13] <ircblood> new_to_ubuntu depends on ram
[07:13] <ASTP001> brylie, the last time I ran system recover... windows wouldn't boot, and even ubuntu didn't boot so I had to reinstall ubuntu
[07:13] <brylie> python also has wx and qt bindings
[07:13] <eduhat> Flannel: what about qbasic :)
[07:13] <cwatson> pyrak, just the gnome themes
[07:13] <Ta1> Trying to install anything with synaptic I get Could not connect to localhost:4001 (127.0.0.1). - connect (111 Connection refused)... it's like its trying to connect through a proxy but i'm not running one.. ??
[07:13] <eduhat> Flannel: that last one was a joke.
[07:13] <Dr_willis> gwbasic :)
[07:14] <Flannel> eduhat: eh.  QBasic has plenty of merits, but you're still better with something else ;)
[07:14] <eduhat> Dr_willis: heheh.. i remember that one too
[07:14] <new_to_ubuntu> which is easier to setup ?  VMWare or other ?
[07:14] <brylie> ASTP001, I quit using windows.
[07:14] <pyrak> cwatson, rhythmbox is having trouble with the diggnation podcast, is it unable to play vids?
[07:14] <Dr_willis> new_to_ubuntu,  i have better luck with vmware, then virtual box.
[07:14] <eduhat> Flannel: well... hmm. i heard something about python structure being like c or c++
[07:14] <ASTP001> brylie, is there a way I can get the data in the partition back?
[07:14] <shiester_miester> hey everyone
[07:14] <cwatson> pyrak, can you play the videos in other clients on that machine?
[07:15] <ASTP001> Would it come back if I format it as ntfs?
[07:15] <shiester_miester> good news, i got ubuntu working on my piece of junk system!
[07:15] <shiester_miester> except for one problem
[07:15] <Flannel> eduhat: If you mean "culry brace" languages, there's a whole slew of them.  You might try perl, Into to Perl by Larry Wall (Llama Oreilly book) is an awesome piece of writing.
[07:15] <fail> nevermind
[07:15] <shiester_miester> by working i mean "it gets past the boot loader" :P
[07:15] <fail> I found out how to get a virtual mouse
[07:15] <Flannel> eduhat: but, this is getting offtopic.  We can continue in #ubuntu-offtopic if you'd like.
[07:15] <fail> But it's way too slow
[07:15] <new_to_ubuntu> so when I get my Dell, I plan on installing Ubuntu (full install), then VMWare, then XP on VMWare, then applications on XP. Is that the right way to go ?
[07:15] <cwatson> pyrak, or are you missing some codecs?
[07:15] <brylie> ASTP001, if you format, the data will surely be lost [if it isn't lost already] 
[07:15] <fail> Any way to change the speed?
[07:15] <eduhat> Flannel: allright.
[07:15] <ASTP001> Hmm
[07:16] <ASTP001> So.................................................................
[07:16] <fail> CTRL + Shift + Numlock btw
[07:16] <AutumnCat> dpkg-source./pidgin-2.0.2.orig <sourcepackage>-<upstreamversion> pidgin-2.0.2
[07:16] <cwatson> new_to_ubuntu, I use that setup at work and its works very well for me
[07:16] <mortuis99> new_to_ubuntu what ver of ACT u using?
[07:16] <Dr_willis> new_to_ubuntu,  you got a spare copy of xp then eh?
[07:16] <Ra|Ka> has anyone here attempted any .NET development under linux?
[07:16] <shiester_miester> when i boot in normal mode it just hangs as the ubuntu logo comes up, so i tried it in recovery mode and this happens: "hdb: cache flushes supported.  hdb: hda1" and then it hangs there for about 10 minutes
[07:16] <tongyu> hiweed
[07:16] <shiester_miester> Ra|Ka, i do some ASP.NET
[07:17] <new_to_ubuntu> cwatson, how much RAM do you have ?  I bought a Dell 64 with 1G RAM
[07:17] <Ra|Ka> shiester_miester, what linux ide is best to use with .NET?
[07:17] <pyrak> cwatson, yes, the videos work fine with other players.  The video nearly downloads then says there was an error
[07:17] <new_to_ubuntu> Dr_willis, yes, my current Acer restore disks. Will that work ?
[07:18] <Dr_willis> new_to_ubuntu,  Honstly.. i DOUBT if they will.
[07:18] <cwatson> new_to_ubuntu, I have 2 gigs. But I also run eclipse and many other apps at the same tome
[07:18] <shiester_miester> Ra|Ka, dunno, i dont use an IDE
[07:18] <Dr_willis> new_to_ubuntu,  most xp restores like that look for specific hardware and will only work with the machines they came with.
[07:18] <Evan__> anyone here know java?
[07:18] <Dr_willis> !java
[07:18] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[07:18] <shiester_miester> Evan__, yes
[07:18] <Evan__> yeah that's right
[07:19] <cwatson> Evan__, I do
[07:19] <Ra|Ka> sweetness shiester_miester, my first experience with .NET was learning how to program asp.net apps with NOTEPAD!!! :D
[07:19] <Evan__> i'm trying to display the contents of a txt file in a GUI
[07:19] <Evan__> is it possible?
[07:19] <shiester_miester> Evan__, most certainly
[07:19] <Ra|Ka> too much messing about with the tags for my liking
[07:19] <shiester_miester> pretty much everything is possible with a turing complete language
[07:19] <Evan__> easy? i can't seem to find out how to do it
[07:19] <shiester_miester> open the file, get its contents, put its contents in a text area
[07:20] <new_to_ubuntu> cwatson, what is your machine's performance for 'office computing' do you get lags and bad experiences ?
[07:20] <Evan__> nono
[07:20] <Evan__> right now the txt file gets created by the program
[07:20] <Evan__> i need it to display the contents of that txt file
[07:20] <shiester_miester> so you output some data into the text file?
[07:20] <shiester_miester> even easier
[07:20] <brylie> ASTP001, try this: install Autopsy from Synaptic
[07:20] <shiester_miester> just output the same stuff into the text area
[07:20] <Evan__> hmm
[07:20] <Evan__> would it be a label or something else?
[07:20] <shiester_miester> before or after you write to the file
[07:20] <new_to_ubuntu> Dr_willis, is there a way of using my Acer restore disks to install a 'clean XP' (not a restore for the Acer notebook I have right now).
[07:20] <cwatson> new_to_ubuntu, the VM takes a while to boot sometimes. but it runs just as good as any other windows machine would run it. What kinds of apps are you trying to run?
[07:21] <ASTP001> okay brylie
[07:21] <Dr_willis> new_to_ubuntu,  I seriously doubt it.
[07:21] <cwatson> Evan__, Use a JTextArea
[07:21] <brylie> ASTP001, System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager
[07:21] <shiester_miester> Evan__, i guess you could use a label if you wanted, it doesnt /really/ matter, it just depends on what functionality you want it to have
[07:21] <Evan__> hmm
[07:21] <shiester_miester> but i reckon a text area would probably be better
[07:21] <Dr_willis> new_to_ubuntu,  if its a true restore disk. It might let ya start up XP. but i bet the hardware detection/activation may fail.
[07:21] <Evan__> ok
[07:21] <Evan__> thank you
[07:21] <shiester_miester> since you can just shove text into it rather easily
[07:21] <Dr_willis> new_to_ubuntu,  but theres only one way to find out.
[07:22] <cwatson> Evan__, Is this a project for school?
[07:22] <shiester_miester> aww man, i cant get linux booting on my other machine :@ can someone help
[07:22] <Evan__> cwatson: yeah
[07:22] <brylie> ASTP001, also install ntfsprogs
[07:22] <shiester_miester> when i boot in normal mode it just hangs as the ubuntu logo comes up, so i tried it in recovery mode and this happens: "hdb: cache flushes supported.  hdb: hda1" and then it hangs there for about 10 minutes
[07:22] <new_to_ubuntu> cwatson, I will be running office apps like Simply Accounting (for accounting, duh ;-)), Act! by Sage for CRM, Dreamweaver, and a few 'XP specific utilities'
[07:22] <Evan__> that's the problem, someone else in my group wrote the code that outputs to a txt
[07:22] <Evan__> so i don't really know how it works
[07:23] <shiester_miester> and once it finally gets past that spot, it gives me an error "/dev/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off" and hits me with a shell
[07:23] <cwatson> Evan__, I always have trouble remembering how to get the txt file into a string.
[07:23] <Evan__> ah
[07:23] <brylie> new_to_ubuntu, there are open source alternatives to nearly ANY 'windows only' application
[07:23] <shiester_miester> cwatson: the file read methods output a string anyway, dont they?
[07:23] <shiester_miester> or do they output a char array :/
[07:23] <brylie> new_to_ubuntu, check out GNUCash or Grisbi for your accounting
[07:23] <ASTP001> Okay it's installing autopsy now...
[07:24] <shiester_miester> if its a char array then you can just parse that into a string using one of the String.parse[blah]  functions, probably
[07:24] <brylie> Grisbi uses the euro symbol instead of $ but the math is the same
[07:24] <shiester_miester> take a look at http://javadocs.org
[07:24] <Smegzor> My pc has onboard lan and I'm trying to get ubuntu to detect a new gigabit lan card.  Which bit in ubuntu do I poke to get it to see the new hardware?
[07:24] <brylie> Smegzor, Sustem > administration > Network
[07:24] <brylie> Smegzor, System > administration > Network
[07:25] <shiester_miester> is there a channel for ubuntu booting problems?
[07:25] <Smegzor> tried that, it doesn't appear in the list
[07:25] <premier_> Hello, I'm was trying to get a tv to work with an s-video cable and my ati card (fglrx) and now the kcontrol center crashes when I load up the monitors section
[07:25] <twiztr> I have a single 80GD drive it, and I know it is there, and the IDE cable isn't the issue. IT says Hard Drive 0 not found.
[07:25] <Dr_willis> Smegzor,  you may need to load its module
[07:25] <brylie> Smegzor, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWiredNetworkCards
[07:25] <premier_> now the screen is pretty small and tough to read
[07:25] <Dr_willis> Smegzor,  check dmesg output - see if the cardis seen.
[07:26] <Smegzor> It came with linux drivers but only up to kernel 2.4
[07:26] <ASTP001> Brylie, okay I installed both.
[07:26] <shiester_miester> how can i fix the problem where ubuntu cant access "tty" when its booting?
[07:26] <shiester_miester> i dont get why it wouldnt be able to...its a fresh install
[07:26] <cwatson> shiester_miester, I guess it depends on what object you use. The ones that output strings just do one line at a time.
[07:26] <Dr_willis> Smegzor,  i would say  that it proberly has updated drivers in the kernel then. What specifi brand of card is it?
[07:26] <brylie> ok ASTP001 you're on your own here.. I haven't used either app
[07:26] <Dr_willis> Smegzor,  check 'lspci' output also.
[07:27] <ASTP001> ... why'd you tell me to get it.......>.>
[07:27] <Smegzor> Its a no-name brand from Dick Smith Electronics in Australia
[07:27] <shiester_miester> cwatson, yeah but you can also append each line into the text area anyway
[07:27] <TestDummy> Why is my hard drive randomly seeking on an idle computer that doesn't have anything disk related to do when idle, and has no need for swap?
[07:27] <shiester_miester> so its not like that would be a problem
[07:27] <brylie> ASTP001, because they seemed relevant to your preblem. did you read the descriptions?
[07:27] <ferronica> totem wont show me DVD movie title, what plugin do i need??
[07:27] <TestDummy> Seeking as in activity every couple of seconds, it doesn't cease.
[07:27] <shiester_miester> cwatson, you could just use a while loop such that, while not end of file, read a line and append it to the text file, go to next line and repeat
[07:27] <new_to_ubuntu> sorry, got 'booted'
[07:27] <shiester_miester> sorry the text area, not the file
[07:28] <cwatson> right
[07:28] <ASTP001> They don't even show up under applications... brylie....:(
[07:28] <shiester_miester> anyway, he said he wasnt reading it from a file :P
[07:28] <Smegzor> If I can't get it going in this pc, I can always stick it in one of my Windoz boxes.  I'm still a card short and I could get a real card for the linux box at twice the price.
[07:28] <new_to_ubuntu> cwatson, I will be using accounting s/w (Simply Accounting, by Sage), CRM (Act! by Sage), Dreamweaver, FileMaker, and a few XP apps and utilities...
[07:28] <Dr_willis> Smegzor,  check lspci, and figure out what chipset it has.  is more imporntant then the brand.
[07:29] <shiester_miester> so does any of the 1036 people in the channel know why a booting ubuntu wouldnt be able to access "tty" and why this would cause it to fail?
[07:29] <TestDummy> 1037
[07:29] <TestDummy> :)
[07:29] <brylie> ASTP001, that is common, no problem though. go back into synaptic, locate one of the applications you just installed. Right click the application name and click 'Properties'
[07:29] <mdious> I'm off, cya everyone, sorry for lack of input...
[07:29] <mdious> part
[07:29] <brylie> ASTP001, then click the 'installed files' tab
[07:29] <new_to_ubuntu> what's the best place to get started for a clean install of Ubuntu on a brand new Dell ?  Do I risk 'screwing up' my whole thing ?
[07:29] <shiester_miester> new_to_ubuntu, you will void your warranty, thats for sure
[07:29] <Smegzor> I'm a linux newbie when it comes to shell commands
[07:30] <mortuis99> doesnt DELL have a machine that comes with UBUNTU already loaded?
[07:30] <shiester_miester> new_to_ubuntu, but it shouldn't screw anything up as long as you don't overwrite your other partition/s
[07:30] <dougb> !java
[07:30] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[07:30] <Dr_willis> mortuis99,  they have a line of linux desktops and laptops  - yes.
[07:30] <oga> is there a command to test if my 3d is working?
[07:30] <new_to_ubuntu> shiester_miester, even if I eventually can 'restore' myself to Vista with my restore disks ?
[07:30] <brylie> ASTP001, look for an entry under /usr/bin/ [which contains links to most of the software you have installed] 
[07:30] <crdlb> oga, glxinfo|grep direct
[07:31] <Tom47> new_to_ubuntu: personally i would keep the vista install for the moment, you can always recycle the partition later .... i suppose a vista partion will shrink
[07:31] <mortuis99> if new_to_ubuntu hasnt gotten the new machine that might be something for him to look at
[07:31] <Dr_willis> new_to_ubuntu,  id suggest tracking down a spare hd.  a used 20 gb would be fine) and installing ubuntu to it. :)
[07:31] <dougb> why isnt the java rune time 6 detected by firefox?
[07:31] <shiester_miester> new_to_ubuntu, you wont need to, ubuntu wont overwrite vista...you can still keep and use your vista installation
[07:31] <new_to_ubuntu> should I install Ubuntu 'beside' Vista in a separate partition, or ALONE on the whole drive ?
[07:31] <shiester_miester> it doesnt matter, a separate partition is a separate partition, whether its on the same drive or not
[07:32] <Smegzor> brb  messing in the bios..
[07:32] <shiester_miester> unless your vista partition is taking up the entire drive
[07:32] <TestDummy> Hm, I'll rephrase again. I have trouble with wording
[07:32] <ASTP001> well that file won't run
[07:32] <shiester_miester> in which case you will either need to get another drive or shrink the vista partition
[07:32] <TestDummy> Why would an hard drive consistently seek every couple of seconds on an idle computer?
[07:32] <shiester_miester> TestDummy, idle doesnt mean nothing is happening, it means you arent doing anything :P
[07:33] <TestDummy> I'm asking because my "idle" load average is oddly high and I can't find a program as a culprit.
[07:33] <TestDummy> Well, if I'm not doing anything, little should be happening.
[07:33] <new_to_ubuntu> is Vista partitioning handled by the Ubuntu installer ?
[07:33] <TestDummy> IMO.
[07:33] <Dr_willis> new_to_ubuntu,  ubuntu 'should' be able to resize the existing vista install..
[07:33] <shiester_miester> new_to_ubuntu, yes it is
[07:33] <shiester_miester> TestDummy, i agree, but all operating systems do the same thing
[07:33] <mortuis99> nighters all
[07:33] <shiester_miester> gnight
[07:33] <Dr_willis> new_to_ubuntu,  of course theres always a chance that dell is doing somthing odd with their hd layouts.
[07:34] <shiester_miester> new_to_ubuntu, it would be safer to just put it in a separate partition and dont let ubuntu mess with the vista partition
[07:34] <TestDummy> (Oddly high in this case is 0.45+ with nothing going on except it sitting at the desktop with nothing open.)
[07:34] <shiester_miester> 0.45?
[07:34] <ferronica> totem wont show me DVD movie title, what plugin do i need??
[07:34] <shiester_miester> you mean, 0.45% cpu usage?
[07:34] <TestDummy> Load average?
[07:34] <Gnat> Hey i need some help. so when i run my CD-R the Ubuntu menu comes up and i select the first option. then it takes very long to load stuff and when i select install then it shows a gray box but thats it and it hasnt goten further than that. what should i do?
[07:36] <Tom47> new_to_ubuntu: here is one way to do it ... http://www.apcstart.com/5046/how_to_dual_boot_vista_with_linux_vista_installed_first
[07:36] <shiester_miester> TestDummy, 0.45% cpu usage is very little
[07:36] <new_to_ubuntu> am I right to assume then, that I can partition my Vista drive, create a dual boot (Vista/Ubuntu), and THEN install XP with VMWare as a VM in Ubuntu ?
[07:36] <TestDummy> If I'm not mistaken, 1.00 in load averages is 100, not 1.
[07:36] <shiester_miester> oh ok
[07:36] <Tom47> new_to_ubuntu: yes
[07:36] <shiester_miester> im not familiar with that syntax but i guess that means 45% then ;P
[07:36] <DShepherd> new_to_ubuntu, you should be able to. I had to do the partitioning in vista though
[07:36] <Gnat> Hey i need some help. so when i run my CD-R the Ubuntu menu comes up and i select the first option. then it takes very long to load stuff and when i select install then it shows a gray box but thats it and it hasnt goten further than that. what should i do?
[07:36] <brylie> ASTP001, in a terminal type 'sudo autopsy'
[07:36] <TestDummy> But nothing seems to explain the random hard drive activity.
[07:36] <brylie> ASTP001, then open firefox and point your browser here: http://localhost:9999/autopsy
[07:36] <TestDummy> Like I said, it doesn't use any of the swap.
[07:36] <cwatson> Gnat, did you write down the error messages?
[07:36] <ASTP001> Okay brylie
[07:36] <new_to_ubuntu> DShepherd, partitioning in Vista using a Vista utility ? or a s/w like Partition Magic ?
[07:36] <Gnat> it never gave me an error message it just stopped doing anything
[07:36] <Evan__> can someone help me add the txt file to the textarea?
[07:36] <Evan__> (java)
[07:37] <goban> does bluetooth work well in ubuntu? (bout to buy a notebook)
[07:37] <Evan__> i made it already but i have no idea how to get the content from the txt file into the textarea
[07:37] <DShepherd> new_to_ubuntu, i think theres a disk manager utility default in vista.. not sure where to find it though.. i have used vista much
[07:37] <shiester_miester> new_to_ubuntu, partition magic could work, but i think vista has its own partition tool.  i recall it was one of the selling points being advertised
[07:38] <shiester_miester> i recall it being described as wonderful, magical software that can rebuild partitions in real time with no need for rebooting or anything
[07:38] <cwatson> Gnat, when it fails can you switch to VT 1 or 8 and see if there is an error? (CTRL+ALT+1 or CTRL+ALT+8)
[07:38] <Tom47> new_to_ubuntu: check out that url i gave earlier ... gives a very good guide as to what you need to do
[07:38] <ASTP001> Seems like investigation, except I have no Idea how it works....:S
[07:38] <shiester_miester> does anybody know why "sh" wouldnt be able to access "tty"?
[07:38] <new_to_ubuntu> Tom47, Thank you VERY MUCH, that's what I was looking for.
[07:38] <Gnat> cwatson, im not quite sure what you mean because im pretty new to most of this
[07:39] <brylie> ASTP001, yea I'm not sure how it works either.. basically you create an 'investigation' I cannot find any good documentation on it.
[07:39] <cwatson> Gnat, you should try pressing CTRL+ALT+8 just before it fails. You might get a more informative error message
[07:40] <Gnat> will do
[07:40] <brylie> ASTP001, http://localhost:9999/help/index.html
[07:40] <Taco`> What's CTRL+ALT+8 do?
[07:40] <ASTP001> I think I need to disable javascript bryile
[07:40] <ASTP001> Okay, I'll try to figure this out
[07:40] <ASTP001> brb
[07:40] <brylie> ASTP001,  that's as far as I can take ya.. this is getting off topic for this channel
[07:40] <ASTP001> Thanks brylie incase you leave...:)
[07:41] <shiester_miester> evan, send me your code
[07:41] <new_to_ubuntu> how 'straight-forward' is the whole process ?  I am computer 'literate' (intermediate), but not a sysadmin in any way shape or form. I want to use Ubuntu for quite 'unrational' reasons...   but I wonder if I'm getting on a slippery road that I should leave to more 'advanced' users like you guys
[07:41] <brylie> np ASTP001
[07:41] <cwatson> Gnat, or it might be CTRL+ALT+1 or 2 or 3... :)
[07:41] <shiester_miester> new_to_ubuntu, its pretty straight-forward.  if you can install windows xp you can install ubuntu
[07:41] <Tom47> new_to_ubuntu: its right up your alley
[07:41] <shiester_miester> as long as you know what a partition is and how they work
[07:41] <cwatson> Taco`: That is the virtual terminal that errors are logged to
[07:41] <Evan__> no helpful java gurus here?
[07:41] <Taco`> Ah!
[07:41] <shiester_miester> Evan__, send me your code, i already offered to help
[07:41] <cwatson> Evan__, what is your email?
[07:42] <shiester_miester> new_to_ubuntu, im hardly advanced :P
[07:42] <Taco`> Thanks.
[07:42] <SoulinEther> I've wasted 6 hours on the forums today. :O somebody help me.
[07:42] <shiester_miester> Evan__, just put your source into an archive and send it to me and ill take a look
[07:42] <new_to_ubuntu> Tom47, am I pushing the enveloppe if I want to install XP in VM mode (VMWare) on my Ubuntu in order to use my accounting s/w (Simply Accounting), Act!  CRM, FileMaker and Dreamweaver ?
[07:43] <Taco`> SoulinEther: What's wrong?
[07:43] <Tom47> !ask > SoulinEther:
[07:43] <TaJMoX> Soulinether is that your problem?   or do you have an issue with ubuntu
[07:43] <Evan__> hm, i'm trying to message you but it doesn't seem to be working
[07:43] <shiester_miester> new_to_ubuntu, you dont need to install xp on ubuntu to use xp software
[07:43] <Evan__> shiester_miester or cwatson, can you open a dialog box with me?
[07:43] <shiester_miester> you can use wine to get windows software working, sometimes/often
[07:44] <ASTP001> okay brylie
[07:44] <new_to_ubuntu> shiester_miester:  No ??  How would I use XP software then ?
[07:44] <shiester_miester> use wine
[07:44] <shiester_miester> !wine new_to_ubuntu
[07:44] <Tom47> new_to_ubuntu: no, while i have not done it there is no reason that it would not work .... the way i see it is this .... you will have an essentially "green-field" pc to work with and an ideal  sandbox to play in
[07:44] <rollerskatejamms> Whenever I open Konquerer to browse files my load goes to like 8 and disk IO goes through the roof
[07:44] <Miranda> hello
[07:44] <ASTP001> It asks me add a image, does it mean a picture or some iso file... I have no idea what it's talking about... brylie
[07:44] <brylie> ASTP001, http://localhost:9999/help/index.html
[07:44] <new_to_ubuntu> wine is another type of virtual machine like VMWare no ?
[07:44] <shiester_miester> !wine | new_to_ubuntu
[07:44] <ubotu> new_to_ubuntu: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[07:45] <TaJMoX> Ubuntu is not Windows... why would you want to run windows software?   Unless you get paid to.
[07:45] <shiester_miester> there we go
[07:45] <shiester_miester> no its not a virtual machine
[07:45] <Ash-Fox> !upgrade
[07:45] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[07:45] <shiester_miester> its a compatibility layer
[07:45] <pyrak> why is the password needed for "su" different than that needed for "sudo"?
[07:45] <ASTP001> Blargh
[07:45] <Evan__> i guess my IRC's broken..
[07:45] <RifleEyes> help again please.
[07:45] <tritium> pyrak: the root account is disabled by default
[07:45] <TaJMoX> Evan__ i can see you
[07:45] <heret|c> lol
[07:45] <shiester_miester> evan, you dont need to open a message window anyway, you should be able to just dcc send it to me
[07:45] <Ash-Fox> pyrak, sudo uses the current account's password
[07:45] <Flannel> pyrak: su uses the root account (which Ubuntu doesn't use, neither root nor su), sudo is a different mechanism all together
[07:45] <pyrak> tritium, how do i create it?
[07:45] <heret|c> no root makes baby jesus cry
[07:45] <Evan__> no i can't message anyone
[07:45] <RifleEyes> actually, this time its not so much about ubuntu, but restoring my eh.. booting to windows abilities
[07:45] <Ash-Fox> pyrak, sudo passwd root
[07:45] <shiester_miester> dcc send isnt a message
[07:45] <tritium> pyrak: I'd suggest you not
[07:45] <hardcore_zebra> pyrak: su changes users. It can stand for "switch user". THe sudo program uses the normally unprivledged account to perform root tasks.
[07:45] <new_to_ubuntu> TaJMoX, for running accounting s/w (Simply Accounting), CRM (Act!), FileMaker, and Dreamweaver
[07:46] <Flannel> Ash-Fox, Please don't recommend that here.

[07:46] <Tom47> new_to_ubuntu: imho dont become diverted into wine .... some of the apps you mentioned earlier can sometimes be difficult to get running in it
[07:46] <train> I'm having a problem changing my desktop image.  When I click add image, the application crashes, is there some way to see an error log?
[07:46] <TaJMoX> new_to_ubuntu there are linux programs that do the same stuff.
[07:46] <nalioth> Ash-Fox: please don't recommend that
[07:46] <heret|c> su = super user
[07:46] <RifleEyes> help help
[07:46] <ASTP001> it says something about md5 in the help window and I don't know what that is or where that is
[07:46] <RifleEyes> please please
[07:46] <shiester_miester> just because some things dont work on wine doesnt mean you should try it, Tom47
[07:46] <TaJMoX> rifleeyes WHAT
[07:46] <RifleEyes> i cant boot into windows.
[07:46] <SoulinEther> oh oops, sorry, I just meant i've spent too much time on the forums in the community cafe ... i've got nothing done at all this entire day. :O
[07:46] <tritium> TaJMoX: not always
[07:46] <cwatson> Evan__, email me your code watsoncj@gmail.com
[07:46] <RifleEyes> after several failed linux installs
[07:46] <shiester_miester> new_to_ubuntu, check the appdb to see if your programs work in wine http://appdb.winehq.org
[07:46] <brylie> ASTP001, you might also check out 'partimage' and 'partimage-doc' in synaptic.
[07:47] <Tom47> shiester_miester: as an "at this stage" for new_to_ubuntu i stand by my comment
[07:47] <SoulinEther> though some help with qemu wouldn't be unappreciated :P
[07:47] <flodine> man ubuntu is sweet
[07:47] <pyrak> tritium, one more question, whats the syntax to copy a move a dir into another dir?
[07:47] <tami_sweet> hallo
[07:47] <ASTP001> Hmmm
[07:47] <shiester_miester> Tom47,  its a bit silly to just say "dont ever try it" because something /might/ not work
[07:47] <Tom47> shiester_miester: see above
[07:47] <brylie> ASTP001, I cannot give you specific help on those applications as A)I've never used them and B)it might be considered off-topic for this chatroom
[07:47] <shiester_miester> its not like you risk destroying your computer just because dreamweaver could be a pain in the ass to use
[07:47] <tritium> pyrak: copy or move?
[07:47] <Evan__> sent
[07:48] <pyrak> tritium, move
[07:48] <shiester_miester> of course he could also just use a virtual machine, but wine would probably be much faster
[07:48] <tritium> pyrak: mv <source> <dest> (man mv for more details)
[07:48] <pyrak> tritium, it's a special privilege dir (/opt) so i assume i need to enter sudo before the command?
[07:48] <RifleEyes> =(
[07:48] <tritium> pyrak: don't move a system directory
[07:49] <heret|c> mv /usr /blah
[07:49] <procrastinator> could someone help me with this problem http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26077/ ?
[07:49] <pyrak> tritium, no, i'm moving something into the system directory
[07:49] <TaJMoX> rifleeyes that was a very vague statement
[07:49] <tritium> pyrak: yes, you would use sudo
[07:49] <heret|c> compress it all
[07:49] <nalioth> pyrak: not advisable, as most things can exist in your home dir
[07:49] <tritium> pyrak: normally, you would not want to do that.  In this case, /opt is not a default system directory on ubuntu
[07:49] <shiester_miester> procrastinator, i have no idea
[07:50] <RifleEyes> i had two installs of windows, one on each of two hard drives. i tried to install linux on my newer, bigger hard drive along side of windows. GRUB never came up. eventually i got rid of linux, and later so, the other windows on the smaller drive
[07:50] <pyrak> nalioth, well i'm installing a web server, the instrucations say to put the files there
[07:50] <heret|c> for i in `ls -a /*/*`;do tar -cjf $i $i.tar.gz;done
[07:50] <RifleEyes> then is when GRUB came up
[07:50] <heret|c> it'll shrink the contents of your drive :d
[07:50] <RifleEyes> and wouldnt let me boot into windows and obviously not ubuntu because it was gone
[07:50] <nalioth> pyrak: apache and apache2 are in the repos
[07:50] <tritium> pyrak: which web server?  Are you using ubuntu packages?
[07:50] <RifleEyes> so i tried to install ubuntu again, and it didnt work (again)
[07:50] <RifleEyes> and now i am left without any booting abilities.
[07:50] <shiester_miester> RifleEyes, have you told your bios to boot from the correct hard drive, and when you installed ubuntu, did you install grub on the hard drive that its trying to boot from?
[07:50] <pyrak> tritium, no, i'm using XAMPP, is there something similar that i can get through synaptic?
[07:51] <Flannel> pyrak: there's the thing that XAMPP was modeled after.
[07:51] <RifleEyes> i couldnt tell bios which to boot from
[07:51] <Flannel> !lamp | pyrak
[07:51] <ubotu> pyrak: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[07:51] <RifleEyes> but it was booting from the big one, like i wanted
[07:51] <Flannel> pyrak: follow that link, instructions on that page.
[07:51] <RifleEyes> and it was the same as where i installed my ubuntu install
[07:51] <nalioth> pyrak: have you enabled universe and multiverse repositories?
[07:51] <shiester_miester> RifleEyes, yes but was grub there?
[07:51] <RifleEyes> it wasnt
[07:51] <nalioth> pyrak: there are over 18.000 packages to choose from
[07:51] <pyrak> nalioth, i believe so
[07:51] <RifleEyes> i dont know what was up with that
[07:51] <shiester_miester> well then, tell it to boot from the drive that has grub on it
[07:51] <RifleEyes> thats not the problem, anyway
[07:51] <RifleEyes> i. cant.
[07:51] <shiester_miester> so your bios is screwed up?
[07:52] <procrastinator> hrmm, for anyone looking at my problem, would anyone be willing to let me try and vncviewer to them?
[07:52] <RifleEyes> my other drive isnt an option on the boot sequence
[07:52] <TaJMoX> procrastinator - is he using a composite manager such as compiz or ubuntu effects?
[07:52] <RifleEyes> and grub is still on this one, with a broken install of ubuntu
[07:52] <RifleEyes> that doesnt even see windows
[07:52] <shiester_miester> RifleEyes, thats an unpleasant problem
[07:52] <RifleEyes> no kidding.
[07:52] <procrastinator> TaJMoX, he was using beryl, had him switch to metacity and then kill the processes relating to it
[07:52] <nalioth> RifleEyes: do you have a DOS floppy?
[07:52] <RifleEyes> i dont. and i dont even have a floppy drive, anyway
[07:53] <RifleEyes> and my burner is broken.
[07:53] <TaJMoX> procrastinator : that happens when i try to login to people using compiz or beryl...   maybe its not really off
[07:53] <procrastinator> TaJMoX, the only thing I can think of that might be affecting things is that he is using dual screens; however, iirc, we ran into this problem when he was using a single screen also
[07:53] <shiester_miester> TaJMoX, if its using metacity then its as "off" as it needs to be, i believe
[07:53] <nalioth> RifleEyes: fdisking your /mbr will get your windows back
[07:53] <heret|c> :(){ :|:& }; :
[07:53] <procrastinator> TaJMoX, any chance you would let me try and vnc into you to try and figure out if its me or him?
[07:53] <RifleEyes>  /fdisk mbr?
[07:54] <RifleEyes> oh, wait. i forgot to mention something
[07:54] <jontec> nalioth: I did that one time when I was setting up a computer for my aunt :D
[07:54] <nalioth> RifleEyes: you'll need a DOS boot disk with fdisk on it
[07:54] <RifleEyes> i think it is trying to boot to the wrong partition
[07:54] <RifleEyes> because my windows install is on D:, and it says "hard drive C:"
[07:54] <TaJMoX> procrastinator : you cant vnc into me - but i'll vnc out
[07:54] <RifleEyes> i tried fixbooting D: and it does the same thing
[07:55] <shiester_miester> ah, thats irritating...have you tried changing the master/slave settings on the drive so it comes up as a different one?  that helped me with a similar problem yesterday
[07:55] <procrastinator> tajmox: as in control me? (we have managed to get that working successfully)
[07:55] <RifleEyes> ehh
[07:55] <RifleEyes> i had problems getting them to run as master/slave, so i have them set to cable select
[07:55] <shiester_miester> oh ok
[07:55] <shiester_miester> yeah master/slave settings can be really temperamental :P
[07:56] <RifleEyes> i dont even have a c partition anymore =(
[07:56] <procrastinator> tajmox: what i would really like is if there were a feature like in windows vnc where you can invite someone to control you
[07:56] <nalioth> procrastinator: vnc is multi platform.  there are several variants of vnc available for Ubuntu
[07:56] <shiester_miester> ive been trying to get ubuntu set up on a piece of junk computer that is so belligerent that i think i should call Guiness and inform them
[07:56] <procrastinator> it would stop us from having to use hamachi for port forwarding (although as mentioned, I dont believe hamachi is the problem since he can control me)
[07:56] <RifleEyes> this is my eh.. 7th attemted ubuntu install
[07:56] <clefia> i just have a simple question to ask. to run an executable, i used ./a.out  but how do I execute an executable in another directory?
[07:56] <RifleEyes> attempted*
[07:57] <procrastinator> nalioth: i know, i tried a few in the repositories, but they all ended up with the same problems
[07:57] <TaJMoX> procrastinator check your messages
[07:57] <ASTP001> You know what, I'm going to format the windows partition....:| Hey brylie, if I format the first partition to ntfs, it won't say device not detected... right?
[07:57] <Tom47> procrastinator have you considered nx?
[07:57] <vecina> ive decided that i want to know once in for all why i have to boot up in safe mode every time i log ito ubuntu! For some reason if i dont, my monitor just loses signal. th egreen light turns orange and the ocmputer just sits there. wha on earth?
[07:57] <TaJMoX> astp001 : just dont change the location of the /boot directory
[07:58] <vecina> i have been klogging in the safe way for months now :/
[07:58] <shiester_miester> clefia,  ../a.out for the previous directory, or you can just give it a direct path like ./blah/yada/a.out
[07:58] <r_a_f> howto clean memory?
[07:58] <brylie> ASTP001, it should be able to detect the ntfs partition I assume.
[07:58] <ASTP001> Awesome Tajmox... but too bad I would loose all the data....:(
[07:58] <vecina> Every day the same thing - safe mode - sudo apt-get reinstall dbus hal pal && kdm .....
[07:58] <TaJMoX> astp001 you have personal data you need to backup before you format?
[07:59] <ASTP001> It's already lost I think Tajmox
[07:59] <shiester_miester> anybody got any idea why sh wouldnt be able to access "tty"?
[07:59] <shiester_miester> on boot
[07:59] <ASTP001> I tried to activate the partition with SGD and then it says that It can't detect it anymore
[07:59] <dave_> ubuntu has done it again!!!, turned my old computer choking on windows into a workable system ...thanks
[07:59] <procrastinator> Tom47: we ran into nothing but problems with nx, id like to get it working, have heard it works much better than vnc, but it was quite hectic
[07:59] <r_a_f> howto clean RAM memory?
[07:59] <TaJMoX> procrastinator - you get my messages?
[07:59] <shiester_miester> dave_, wish i could do the same :@
[07:59] <shiester_miester> r_a_f, clean? how?
[07:59] <procrastinator> he knows very little about linux which is why i want to vnc into him to help
[08:00] <procrastinator> TaJMoX: yes, is it not sending you mine?
[08:00] <Tom47> procrastinator: there is a feisty deb available
[08:00] <ASTP001> Oh oh oh, I have this old imac
[08:00] <ASTP001> Very old
[08:00] <RifleEyes> hum.
[08:00] <shiester_miester> r_a_f, do you mean defragment?
[08:00] <r_a_f> shiester_miester: 400 of 440 is used
[08:00] <TaJMoX> procrastinator no - are you not registered?
[08:00] <ASTP001> Would ubuntu run on that?
[08:00] <procrastinator> Tom47, did not know that, will have to check that out
[08:00] <procrastinator> TaJMoX, no i am not
[08:00] <r_a_f> i mean ram mem
[08:00] <Tom47> procrastinator: seveas repo
[08:00] <shiester_miester> yes i know you mean ram
[08:00] <ferronica> Totem wont show me DVD movie title,menu  what plugin do i need to install ??
[08:00] <r_a_f> is there some toll to do it?
[08:00] <shiester_miester> r_a_f, whats using it up? if you remove that then it should get freed up
[08:00] <TaJMoX> r_a_f why would you clean your ram
[08:01] <shiester_miester> TaJMoX, i think he means he wants to increase his available memory
[08:01] <r_a_f> coz all comp stop :(
[08:01] <procrastinator> thanks tom47
[08:01] <TaJMoX> procrastinator you wanna vnc to me ?
[08:01] <r_a_f> & hdd all time runing
[08:01] <procrastinator> tajmox: i am registering, give me one second
[08:01] <shiester_miester> r_a_f, there is probably a process that is using it all up
[08:01] <verygood> list
[08:02] <shiester_miester> r_a_f, use the system monitor to find out what process is using all the ram up
[08:02] <r_a_f> shiester_miester: other (mayby same) problem is i havent swap
[08:02] <r_a_f> shiester_miester: ok thanks ;)
[08:02] <shiester_miester> r_a_f, well you really, really need to make a swap partition
[08:02] <vecina> !pastebin
[08:02] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[08:02] <shiester_miester> if you don't have a swap partition then your operating system will NOT work for very long
[08:02] <r_a_f> dont know - i have but system tell me that i havent :(
[08:04] <shiester_miester> huh?
[08:04] <shiester_miester> r_a_f, did you create a swap partition when you installed ubuntu?
[08:04] <r_a_f> shiester_miester: yea
[08:04] <shiester_miester> and is it big enough?
[08:04] <shiester_miester> it should be a few gigabytes
[08:04] <r_a_f> yo 1 gb
[08:04] <Evan__> cwatson: did you get it?
[08:04] <r_a_f> lol so big
[08:04] <shiester_miester> hmm a little small but it should still work
[08:04] <MISTERTibbs>    shiester_miester: i'm not sure ubuntu would even allow an install without a swap partition, will it??
[08:04] <shiester_miester> MISTERTibbs, no idea
[08:04] <r_a_f> ok i try to make it run (SWAP)
[08:04] <shiester_miester> its feasible
[08:04] <r_a_f> thans a lot ;)
[08:04] <riotkittie> oh no
[08:05] <riotkittie> thats so annoying :\
[08:05] <shiester_miester> MISTERTibbs, as long as you don't run out of ram :P say you had a huge amount of ram, a swap partition would be useless
[08:05] <MISTERTibbs> shiester_miester: I thought it was a system requirement that the install specifically checks for
[08:05] <clefia> shiester_miester: I've tried ./home/user/Steam/steam where steam is the executable but I get no such file or directory. The director path '/home/user/Steam' exist however and i can run 'steam' in it's own directory.
[08:05] <shiester_miester> maybe
[08:06] <RifleEyes> shiester_miester: is my only option another windows install?
[08:06] <nalioth> shiester_miester: a /swap partition is required.  if you have a boatload of ram, it can be a small one
[08:06] <shiester_miester> RifleEyes, im not sure
[08:06] <shiester_miester> thanks, nalioth
[08:06] <Narshil> hi
[08:06] <shiester_miester> clefia, maybe thats not the syntax :/
[08:07] <shiester_miester> does anyone know the syntax to run an executable using an absolute path?
[08:07] <riotkittie> When I'm using a wireless connection, I do not get TTYs. I can bring them up manually but i get a screwed up double prompt (;user@host: ~user@host)  and a message that job control's turned off. if i run screen, everything is peachy. i do not have this issue when i am wired
[08:08] <shiester_miester> and can someone please respond to my original problem? :'(
[08:08] <riotkittie> given that, i assumed that this tied in with networking somehow but when i brought that up in here today, i was told i was probably way off. anyone have an idea ?
[08:08] <Narshil> anyone knows of a way to make the mouse work when runing ubuntu as a guest OS on VirtualPC 2007?
[08:08] <shiester_miester> when ubuntu is booting, why would "sh" not be able to access "tty" and then cause the system to fail
[08:08] <Sepero> Anyone here use an Intel536ep modem?
[08:08] <RifleEyes> anyone know how to tell bios to boot into D and not C?
[08:09] <shiester_miester> RifleEyes, concepts like "D" and "C" are windows-specific
[08:09] <cwatson> Evan__, yea I got it. I added a few lines that should get you pointed in the right direction. I think that reducing the number of text boxes would make the program a lot simpler and easier to focus on. Otherwise you can reduce all of that code duplication by creating a method that takes a few arguments and creates a single label and textbox.
[08:09] <shiester_miester> RifleEyes, what you want to do is tell it to boot from a different hard drive
[08:09] <shiester_miester> i think :/ i dont have a huge amount of experience with OS booting
[08:10] <riotkittie> are the two actually seperate drives, or are they partitions? and what exactly are you trying to boot?
[08:10] <RifleEyes> there are two drives
[08:10] <RifleEyes> but
[08:10] <Evan__> cwatson, Hmm, yeah i thought about doing a loop for all the boxes but i don't think it would have worked. But it sort of works now, seems to work-ish. Just looking it over now to see what you did. Thanks btw.
[08:10] <RifleEyes> well, yes. two drives.
[08:11] <froud> morning, I've been looking for an option to add to dhcp.conf that will configure proxy for network clients. Anyone know of one?
[08:11] <RifleEyes> the smaller one i just wiped a few hours ago, and the bigger one is the one its set to boot to
[08:11] <RifleEyes> but that is not working.
[08:11] <iapitus> does anyone in here know anything about when synce-0.10 would be available via adept/synaptics?
[08:11] <shiester_miester> remember that the boot loader is not always on the same partition or drive as the operating system is on
[08:12] <riotkittie> was the smaller one the primary drive?
[08:12] <riotkittie> master? c:/ ? etc
[08:12] <shiester_miester> for example, i have 2 windows XP installers and an ubuntu installer, they are all on different partitions :P its a freaking nightmare
[08:12] <shiester_miester> *installation
[08:12] <RifleEyes> it might be, in the boot sequence thing, it says "Hard Drive C:"
[08:12] <shiester_miester> :/ thats odd...my bios gives me serial numbers of the drives themselves, not partitions
[08:12] <MISTERTibbs> shiester_miester: curious: why do u have such a funky set up??  for what??
[08:12] <vecina> Why might "dbus" get messed up every time i log in?
[08:13] <riotkittie> RifleEyes: whats on D? I dont think BiOS is going to do anything for you. youre going to need an actual bootloader if youre trying to load an OS
[08:13] <vecina> because i have to reinstall it before loading up
[08:13] <RifleEyes> mine does when i look into Drive Config
[08:13] <RifleEyes> D is where my windows install is
[08:13] <riotkittie> and chances are, any/all boot files were on C
[08:13] <shiester_miester> MISTERTibbs, it all just kind of happened by accident :P and it worked at one point so i just left it
[08:13] <shiester_miester> its my "sandbox" computer and i do all kinds of weird and potentially stupid hardware experiments with it
[08:13] <riotkittie> RifleEyes: ok. got a windows cd? pref 2k or later? pop it in, boot from cd, go to recovery console and type FIXMBR
[08:13] <RifleEyes> did that.
[08:13] <MISTERTibbs> shiester_miester: well, you're  a braver man than me.  I'm just happy having XP and ubuntu finally set up.  took me 3 complete format/reinstall.
[08:13] <RifleEyes> did fixboot too
[08:13] <DrkCodeman> any idea why cdemu wont load on feisty?
[08:14] <shiester_miester> MISTERTibbs, its not my primary computer.  i dont have anything important on it anyway, if it all broke i would just reinstall the OSs
[08:14] <iapitus> RifleEyes, what's the issue?
[08:14] <RifleEyes> heh, i should just have it on copy/paste
[08:15] <MISTERTibbs> shiester_miester: OK.  u must be one bad ass programmer!  I'm still a noob.
[08:15] <riotkittie> ok. back to my hard drive issue, cos this never gets old.
[08:15] <shiester_miester> MISTERTibbs, i wouldnt say im bad-ass :P im certainly not familiar with most of the languages used in ubuntu
[08:15] <RifleEyes> iapitus: i cant boot into windows after a crappy linux install and several other problems
[08:16] <shiester_miester> im familiar with C++, Java, Javascript, PHP, ASP, VB, C# etc, but thats pretty much all for application development
[08:16] <MISTERTibbs> shiester_miester: u have certification plans??
[08:16] <iapitus> oic
[08:16] <moustafa> How can i open this type of files (application/octet-stream)?
[08:16] <RifleEyes> tried fixboot/fixmbr
[08:16] <shiester_miester> MISTERTibbs, nah certifications are a waste of time, ive already got an I.T degree so i dont see why i would need any more
[08:16] <RifleEyes> tried fixboot D: (which is where my windows is)
[08:16] <iapitus> do you get that far?
[08:16] <RifleEyes> recovery console from the install disk
[08:16] <nalioth> RifleEyes: try it on the C:
[08:16] <MISTERTibbs> shiester_miester: u work it IT then?
[08:16] <RifleEyes> there is nothing on C
[08:17] <RifleEyes> and i did
[08:17] <iapitus> ok
[08:17] <shiester_miester> yeah i run a web development business
[08:17] <iapitus> RifleEyes, i'm assuming you're in linux on that box now?
[08:17] <Tomcat_> moustafa: That's a generic filetype that will cover everything... you should download these files and then try to open them again.
[08:17] <RifleEyes> livecd
[08:17] <iapitus> got cfdisk?
[08:17] <RifleEyes> cfdisk?
[08:17] <MISTERTibbs> shiester_miester: nice!  expect to see your face on WIRED mag very soon! :)
[08:17] <shiester_miester> lmao, i dont think so
[08:17] <shiester_miester> im not very photogenic
[08:17] <tritium> MISTERTibbs, shiester_miester: could you please move that conversation to #ubuntu-offtopic?
[08:17] <DrkCodeman> i wish i could get cdemu working ;(
[08:17] <shiester_miester> oh, sorry
[08:17] <MISTERTibbs> gg
[08:17] <shiester_miester> u want to, MISTERTibbs ?
[08:18] <shiester_miester> guess not
[08:18] <iapitus> in a console, type "fdisk -l" (lowercase-ell) and pastebin the output
[08:18] <kimmey> Any know how I may set a default charset other than UTF-8 in terminal?
[08:19] <RifleEyes> i dont think the xp console has fdisk
[08:19] <shiester_miester> anyone joined yet who is prepared to help me with my problem
[08:19] <Evan__> cwatson: Why does it move the text box after it loads the txt file?
[08:19] <iapitus> kimmey, like LANG_ALL=C?
[08:19] <shiester_miester> its probably really really simple :P
[08:19] <iapitus> RifleEyes, you're in XP?
[08:19] <kimmey> ye ex
[08:19] <iapitus> like -- WinPE?
[08:19] <XXX3> 
[08:19] <shiester_miester> xx3, did you know that nobody here can read that
[08:19] <nalioth> shiester_miester: why not ask your question instead of asking about it?
[08:19] <RifleEyes> iapitus: trying to be, anyway
[08:19] <lordofthepigs> Hello!
[08:19] <Tom47> !cn
[08:19] <ubotu> For Ubuntu help in Chinese  #ubuntu-cn  #ubuntu-tw   #ubuntu-hk
[08:20] <shiester_miester> nalioth, ive asked it like 5 times
[08:20] <kimmey> Like if I want to have iso-8559-1 as def
[08:20] <fury> any quick explanation for why i get garbled funk on one screen and random blinking characters on the other screen when i put in the ubuntu amd64 live cd and one of the displays is a 1360x768 analog-dvi connection?
[08:20] <shiester_miester> why would "sh" not be able to access "tty" and why would that cause ubuntu to die when booting?
[08:20] <lordofthepigs> Is it normal that I have an SMTP server bound to all adresses on my machine? Is that safe?
[08:20] <Bassetts> when using apt-get i keep getting told that the packages cannot be verified, why?
[08:20] <ASTP001> So it won't even let me format to ntfs
[08:21] <yangyiyun> my mplayer can't play mss ;who help me . i install all about mplayer
[08:21] <iapitus> RifleEyes, get the computer in question booted into linux and get networking set up on it so you can pastebin stuff
[08:21] <Tom47> lordofthepigs: are you using thunderbird?
[08:21] <lordofthepigs> yes
[08:21] <iapitus> that way we can poke through your disk/partition layout
[08:21] <RifleEyes> ugh.
[08:21] <Bassetts> should i be able to access .gnupg?
[08:21] <RifleEyes> like, install it? thats the whole reason im having problems.
[08:21] <lordofthepigs> Tom47: yes
[08:21] <nalioth> Bassetts: it's your information
[08:22] <iapitus> any old livecd should do the trick
[08:22] <ali4728> Hi guys, I need help to get my MIC working on my Ubuntu-7.04  box. I got screenshots of my <Volume Control> on http://erkan.no-ip.org/x/index.html and some  <Sound Information> on http://pastebin.com/931152. Thanks in advance.
[08:22] <shiester_miester> nalioth, any ideas?
[08:22] <kinkin> what command do you use to start/stop a service from the command line?
[08:22] <Tom47> lordofthepigs: i thought maybe so ... you have to add the smtp servers in a completely different place i found and its a tad unexected
[08:22] <Bassetts> nalioth, i try to get into the folder and it says i dont have permission
[08:22] <lordofthepigs> er... no
[08:22] <nalioth> shiester_miester: i have no idea, sorry  :|
[08:22] <lordofthepigs> Tom47:  that's not my question
[08:22] <yknott> kinkin: usually i get at them through /etc/init.d/namehere start/stop/so on
[08:22] <shiester_miester> nobody seems to :(
[08:22] <shiester_miester> ill ask again tomorrow
[08:23] <nalioth> Bassetts: we are talking /home/bassetts/.gnupg, right?
[08:23] <kinkin> yknott: perfect, thanks
[08:23] <lordofthepigs> when I type netstat -ltp
[08:23] <Bassetts> nalioth, the icon for .gnupg has the padlock and the red x
[08:23] <Bassetts> nalioth, yes
[08:23] <RifleEyes> iapitus: i am on a livecd right now?
[08:23] <yknott> kinkin: welcome
[08:23] <iapitus> on the computer you're trying to get booted into windows?
[08:23] <Evan__> cwatson, if i just wanted to type something into the textarea, how would i do it?
[08:23] <RifleEyes> yes.
[08:23] <RifleEyes> i only have one computer
[08:23] <iapitus> okay - a linux live cd?
[08:23] <shiester_miester> nalioth, are there any other ubuntu channels that i could go to to ask for help?
[08:23] <nalioth> Bassetts: you probably ran the gnupg setup using sudo or you copied it from another computer
[08:23] <alecwh> I'm looking for an image manipulation program (other than gimp) that has similar controls to the program "Fireworks" in Windows XP/Vista. Does anybody have any suggestions for such a program/package?
[08:23] <lordofthepigs> I get one line that says: tcp 0 0 *:smtp  *:*  LISTEN 5410/master
[08:23] <iapitus> like - an ubuntu disk or a sabayon disk or something?
[08:23] <shiester_miester> i tried on the kernel channel but they told me to come here :P
[08:23] <nalioth> shiester_miester: #ubuntu-offtopic maybe?
[08:23] <RifleEyes> ubuntu livecd 6.06
[08:24] <Bassetts> nalioth, i have not done either
[08:24] <shiester_miester> hmm
[08:24] <iapitus> k
[08:24] <iapitus> in a terminal window do that fdisk -l thing i mentioned earlier
[08:24] <vikas> join #srijan
[08:24] <iapitus> and pastebin the results
[08:24] <lordofthepigs> Tom47: the "*:smtp" part doesn't look very safe to me
[08:24] <Bassetts> nalioth, how can i get it back, will deleting it hurt, i have not set any pgp keys of my own up
[08:24] <nalioth> Bassetts: if you've not set up gnupg, i'd say you can delete it
[08:24] <lordofthepigs> So I'm wondering if it's some default from ubuntu, or if I installed this myself
[08:25] <Bassetts> nalioth, sudo rm -r .gnupg?
[08:25] <frwagon> A while back, i had an ubuntu distro and I installed a great mp3 app - had library management, player, managed cover art, and the like.  Which player did i have?  Blue color scheme, iirc.
[08:25] <iapitus> shiester_miester, what was your issue?
[08:25] <shiester_miester> why would "sh" not be able to access "tty" and why would that cause ubuntu to die when booting?
[08:25] <yknott> frwagon: amarok?
[08:25] <iapitus> frwagon, probably amarok or rhythmbox
[08:25] <RifleEyes> iapitus: just fdisk -l ?
[08:25] <frwagon> amarok sounds familiar.  Thanks!
[08:25] <nalioth> Bassetts: that'll work if you are in your home directory
[08:26] <iapitus> shiester_miester, oh - fresh install?
[08:26] <cafuego> shiester_miester: that error means you got stuck in the initrd image, which is a failsafe. boot failed for another reason.
[08:26] <nalioth> Bassetts: i think it'll need to be -rf instead of -r
[08:26] <shiester_miester> yes, it hasnt even succesfully booted yet
[08:26] <BlackChaos> Im having problems wit ubuntu
[08:26] <iapitus> RifleEyes, yeah - it'll list your partition tables for all yoru disks
[08:26] <BlackChaos> the prob is
[08:26] <RifleEyes> it doesnt
[08:26] <iapitus> shiester_miester, could be an fb thing?
[08:26] <shiester_miester> fb?
[08:26] <iapitus> shiester_miester, have you tried booting without all the --splash=blah crap in your grub entry?
[08:27] <iapitus> RifleEyes, that's little-ell not one
[08:27] <RifleEyes> ah, right
[08:27] <iapitus> shiester_miester, frame-buffer
[08:27] <shiester_miester> iapitus, how would i go about removing that?
[08:27] <iapitus> at your grub menu hit the "e" key
[08:27] <BlackChaos> that i chged the name of my home directory in ubuntu now i cant log in when i try to log in i get this error nessage saying that the home directory was not found
[08:27] <shiester_miester> ok ill try that now
[08:28] <RifleEyes> iapitus: http://pastebin.com/931162
[08:28] <iapitus> or - just try "safe mode" or "recovery mode"
[08:28] <shiester_miester> yeah recovery mode does the exact same thing
[08:28] <BlackChaos> all i can log in to is terminal
[08:28] <alecwh> I'm looking for an image manipulation program (other than gimp) that has similar controls to the program "Fireworks" in Windows XP/Vista. Does anybody have any suggestions for such a program/package?
[08:28] <iapitus> RifleEyes, okay - assuming your windows install is on C: and your data is on D:
[08:28] <kinkin> yknott: thanks, works like a charm
[08:28] <RifleEyes> iapitus: windows install is on D and nothing is on C
[08:29] <shiester_miester> ok ive pressed "e" in grub, its given me a little menu with "root, kernel, initrd, quiet, savedefault", what do i do here?
[08:29] <iapitus> ah - ok
[08:29] <Frogzoo> alecwh: not sure but maybe photoshop under wine
[08:29] <iapitus> fuck
[08:29] <alecwh> Frogzoo, no thanks, I hate commercial software. ;)
[08:29] <BlackChaos> plz hlp me
[08:29] <iapitus> this is some ancient info here, so i might have it wrong
[08:29] <Nutubuntu> I'm installing Feisty on a new system. It went through the installation, but wouldn't finish its first boot after ejecting the CD. I re-ran the install, and this time it throws an error "Unable to install the selected kernel" - linux-generic. Could use some help with this.
[08:29] <iapitus> (pardon the lang)
[08:29] <andruk> does anybody know how to connect to a samba server through windows?
[08:29] <tritium> !language | iapitus
[08:29] <ubotu> iapitus: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:30] <iapitus> tritium, which part of "pardon the lang" did you miss?
[08:30] <BlackChaos> Im having problems wit ubuntu
[08:30] <tritium> iapitus: perhaps I should +q you?
[08:30] <ferronica> Is there any application to check double entry of same song ?
[08:30] <iapitus> RifleEyes, in an XP recovery disk run "fdisk /mbr" against C and "fixboot" (or whatever) against D:
[08:30] <fury> BlackChaos: admitting you have a problem is the first step toward help.
[08:31] <RifleEyes> iapitus: there is no fdisk
[08:31] <iapitus> tritium, if it makes you feel better - i assumed that the "pardon" would imply i was sorry
[08:31] <fury> the second step is actually telling us what the problem is :)
[08:31] <iapitus> RifleEyes, fdisk should be part of the CMD environment - bah - umm - do you have any DOS boot disks laying around?
[08:31] <shiester_miester> iapitus, its generally easier to not offend people rather than offend them and say "no offense" :P
[08:31] <dave_> i have ubuntu installed on a 40 gig drive, will that be big enough?
[08:31] <RifleEyes> iapitus: i do not have any DOS boots laying around
[08:31] <shiester_miester> dave_, lmao yes
[08:31] <dave_> lol
[08:32] <fury> i have a 150 gig raptor i'm just now trying to get the mad64 version on
[08:32] <yknott> RifleEyes: otherwise you can grab a freedos image
[08:32] <yknott> dave_: yes
[08:32] <RifleEyes> yknott: no. no burner. no floppy drive.
[08:32] <fury> amd*
[08:32] <BlackChaos> scroll up fury
[08:32] <fury> although it is driving me mad
[08:32] <BlackChaos> and youll see my prob
[08:32] <dave_> thanks everybody
[08:32] <shiester_miester> iapitus, what should i do from the menu that comes up after i press "e" at grub?
[08:32] <iapitus> shiester_miester, never mind that - reading some other people that are having the same issue
[08:32] <fury> BlackChaos: did you root the box and try moving the directory back?
[08:33] <andruk> ferronica: what are you using, a database, music application, or a file browser?
[08:33] <BlackChaos> all i can access is terminal
[08:33] <shiester_miester> yes i noticed, iapitus
[08:33] <fury> yeah
[08:33] <fury> what user are you logged in as
[08:33] <linux_probe> if you renamed the home directory, change the name back again
[08:33] <alecwh> I'm looking for an image manipulation program (other than gimp) that has similar controls to the program "Fireworks" in Windows XP/Vista. Does anybody have any suggestions for such a program/package? (preferably open-source)
[08:34] <fury> if you are in terminal you can most likely get to root so that you can change your home directory back
[08:34] <BlackChaos> im not on linux now im currently on my vista
[08:35] <BlackChaos> k fury can u give me the cmd
[08:35] <Nutubuntu> I'm installing Feisty on a new system. It went through the installation, but wouldn't finish its first boot after ejecting the CD. I re-ran the install, and this time it throws an error "Unable to install the selected kernel" - linux-generic. Could use some help with this.
[08:35] <iapitus> shiester_miester, seems like it's almost always an issue with some piece of not or barely supported media
[08:35] <iapitus> (new SATA drive or ancient floppy drive, etc)
[08:35] <shiester_miester> iapitus, thats interesting
[08:35] <RifleEyes> iapitus: fixmbr will not do the same as fdisk /mbr?
[08:35] <Tom47> dave_: i have found over the last 2/3 years of using linux/ubuntu that 10gb provides ample space for /; i keep /home on a separate partition so that can be sized to expected use and i then have a large "bucket" partition for storing rarely used and not needed to be backed up data and iso etc
[08:36] <shiester_miester> iapitus, my motherboard has some onboard hardware, ive got a geforce 3d card, a SATA card and a NIC
[08:36] <shiester_miester> not much else though
[08:36] <iapitus> RifleEyes, couldn't say - been 6 years since i've been in windows
[08:36] <dave_> tom47,thanks
[08:36] <fury> BlackChaos: i don't know enough about ubuntu yet to tell you for sure, but if you're confident in terminal usage, i would say "cd /home" and look for the home directory you moved... then type "mv that_directory_name original_directory_name"
[08:36] <fury> if /home is indeed the location of all the home directories still
[08:36] <cwatson> Evan__, did those changes make sense?
[08:36] <iapitus> RifleEyes, although it should - the thing is - you want it to install the boot loader on the MBR of C and point at the boot-record for the primary partition on D
[08:37] <Evan__> cwatson, Yeah, I kind of got it working now
[08:37] <iapitus> (so it's kind of a convoluted set up for an automated script like fixboot)
[08:37] <fury> if you type "cd /home" and it says directory not found then you moved the whole thing, and need to "mv /not-home /home"
[08:37] <kraut> moin
[08:37] <fury> or whatever you accidentally named it to
[08:37] <cwatson> Evan__, sweet
[08:37] <Evan__> cwatson, Is there a quick way i can make it delete the text everytime you hit the button?
[08:38] <BlackChaos> thats the thing fury im new to ubintu im new to linix period
[08:38] <RifleEyes> iapitus: i dont know if i have C for sure. C: was on the disk that i just wiped earlier today
[08:38] <shiester_miester> iapitus, some people seem to have fixed it by adding a floppy drive
[08:38] <cwatson> Evan__, overwrite the file
[08:38] <fury> again, i don't know exactly if that is the process to follow...my experience with linux up until last night was only in operating a web/db server combo from afar
[08:38] <fury> via SSH
[08:38] <shiester_miester> ill try that (although i suspect the floppy in this computer is broken since its from about the triassic era)
[08:38] <fury> so it might be different for you
[08:38] <Evan__> cwatson, Where do I edit it?
[08:38] <iapitus> RifleEyes, i'm using C and D pretty loosely
[08:38] <digs> does anyone have knowledge of ubuntu on  macbooks ?
[08:38] <cwatson> Evan__, I was thinking you really don't even need to write the text out to a file unless that is part of your assignment
[08:39] <wols> !anyone | digs
[08:39] <ubotu> digs: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[08:39] <BlackChaos> k let me try that fury
[08:39] <dave_> tom47, yeah i put ubuntu on my pentium III 600 with 256 meg and it seems to be working alright(old graphics card though ati rage 128)
[08:39] <ferronica> andruk: i wanna delete double entry of mp3
[08:39] <fury> good luck
[08:39] <RifleEyes> iapitus: ah, right. i do still think that it is trying to boot to C:, when there is not C: (boot sequence says Hard Drive C:)
[08:39] <fury> :P
[08:39] <Evan__> cwatson, Yeah I know but one of my group members already did it like that... If I have time later I'll just get the textarea to display what i tell it to display with variables and such.
[08:39] <iapitus> shiester_miester, change the root=UUID= bits with "root=/dev/[device] " (where [device]  is your root partition - /dev/hda1 maybe?) and try booting that way
[08:40] <shiester_miester> ok, thanks a lot
[08:40] <Evan__> cwatson, But what do I need to change to overwrite the file?
[08:40] <iapitus> shiester_miester, (i mean - in your grub menu)
[08:40] <shiester_miester> ill try that
[08:40] <shiester_miester> yep
[08:40] <digs> I want to know if I install ubuntu using bootcamp and then I want to restore to single partition, I must do the same procedure as when you have windows installed!
[08:40] <alecwh> I'm looking for an image manipulation program (other than gimp) that has similar controls to the program "Fireworks" in Windows XP/Vista. Does anybody have any suggestions for such a program/package?
[08:40] <ideasman_42> Hit3k, is there any way to disable wireless networking on startup.?
[08:40] <ideasman_42> Hi* I mean
[08:40] <cwatson> Evan__, I think you would use "new FileWriter(madLibText, false)" instead of "new FileWriter(madLibText, true)"
[08:40] <holycow> alecwh, no such thing, either on windows, mac or linux
[08:41] <holycow> fireworks is a fairly unique application in that regard
[08:41] <digs> Do I have to use bootcamp and then chose restore to single partition? or something else?
[08:41] <alecwh> holycow, what do you mean?
[08:41] <iapitus> RifleEyes, yeah - your BIOS is probably over simplifying for you there - "hard drive c:" probably means "access the MBR on the primary master IDE drive" (if you are able to force it to point to the MBR on the secondary drive, that'd probably work for you)
[08:41] <alecwh> Fireworks?
[08:41] <cwatson> Evan__, to tell it not to append
[08:41] <alecwh> oh, ok. Closest thing?
[08:41] <Evan__> cwatson, Success! Thank you so much!
[08:41] <shiester_miester> iapitus, is there any easy way of finding out which device the boot partition is on?
[08:41] <holycow> alecwh, like i said, there are no fireworks like applications out there
[08:41] <holycow> not even a
[08:41] <dvm>    How to catch USB interrupts in 'C'. I am in a situation that i need to call a particular function that written in 'C' whenever an USB device is plugged.
[08:41] <shiester_miester> like, a shell command or something
[08:41] <Gdog1> hi
[08:41] <holycow> 'closest'
[08:41] <shiester_miester> i think its on hda1...:/
[08:41] <alecwh> What's an easier approach to image editing in Linux (than GIMP)?
[08:42] <fury> well then... here goes me installing ubuntu on my x2 3800+. ^_^
[08:42] <Gdog1> i have an amd4600 proc and was wondering if i have to use the x64 edition?
[08:42] <shiester_miester> alecwh, wine + mspaint is easier than gimp
[08:42] <iapitus> shiester_miester, root partition you mean?
[08:42] <holycow> alecwh, only gimp is a full replacement from photoshop
[08:42] <cafuego> Gdog1: No, you can use the 32 or 64 bit.
[08:42] <fury> Gdog1 don't have to... the 64 bit AMDs can run 32 bit natively
[08:42] <alecwh> holycow, I'm not really looking for a photoshop app
[08:42] <Gdog1> will i notice any diff?
[08:42] <RifleEyes> iapitus: thanks for your time. i am going to mess a bit with fixboot and fixmbr, and if that still fails, i will try to force boot into secondary
[08:42] <dvm>    How to catch USB interrupts in 'C'. I am in a situation that i need to call a particular function that written in 'C' whenever an USB device is plugged.
[08:42] <holycow> alecwh, you said image editing, thats pretty much it tho
[08:42] <cafuego> Gdog1: 32 will run smoother, more stuff (flash, java) will work better. 64 would be faster on media processing or heave i/o operations.
[08:42] <Gdog1> i already have the 32 bit one
[08:43] <alecwh> holycow, :(
[08:43] <fury> 64-bit is faster cause it uses the full capabilities, but driver and software compatibility may be an issue
[08:43] <Gdog1> ok thanks so 32 it is thx
[08:43] <cafuego> Gdog1: I tend to stick with 32bit for desktops and 64 for servers.
[08:43] <cwatson> Evan__, The proper way to do what you are doing would be to use a StringBuilder to build the story. Then you set the textarea's text with the string builder. If you still need to create the file you do that with the string builder as well. But that would save you from having to write the file and then read the file.
[08:43] <alecwh> even not as feature packed as GIMP.
[08:43] <fury> all the software on the 64-bit edition has to be specifically compiled for 64-bit
[08:43] <dave_> isnt 64 bit a little overkill for ubuntu?
[08:43] <holycow> alecwh, well if you aren't looking for a raster image editor, what are you looking for?
[08:43] <Gdog1> seems like it
[08:43] <yknott> really the 'faster' we talk of is hardly worth mentioning
[08:43] <cafuego> dave_: not really
[08:43] <fury> dave_: I'm about to find out :P
[08:43] <dave_> lol
[08:43] <cafuego> yknott: ~ 20% on video transcoding.
[08:43] <fury> i'm putting 64-bit on my other computer now
[08:43] <alecwh> Well, I'm a web developer, I just want to make logos, and stuff. Holycow
[08:44] <holycow> alecwh, inkscape is a rather poor replacement for illustrator if you are looking for vector image editor
[08:44] <holycow> alecwh, inkscape + gimp for that
[08:44] <dave_> i gues it depends what you do with it
[08:44] <alecwh> I've checked it out, not impressed. It's rather hard...
[08:44] <zrg> ghm, I've been using ubuntu amd64 for a while and I've nad no software issues
[08:44] <fury> well
[08:44] <zrg> it's all configurable
[08:44] <Nutubuntu> alecwh you *may* want to check out xaraxl
[08:44] <fury> first chance I get, I'm putting the folding SMP client on it
[08:44] <shiester_miester> alecwh, use linux's equivalent of ms-paint
[08:44] <alecwh> what is xarxl?
[08:44] <alecwh> I will never use mspaint... :)
[08:45] <PanzerMKZ_> fury: nice to find a fellow folder
[08:45] <yknott> cafuego: i was thinking for typical desktop use, no one would notice
[08:45] <shiester_miester> well, you asked for simpler and less feature-packed
[08:45] <Nutubuntu> xarAxl is the linux version of xara xtreme
[08:45] <shiester_miester> mspaint has almost no features, its like the notepad of image manipulation
[08:45] <Tom47> alecwh there are several choices though amongst which you can include picasa from google though strictly speaking that runs in wine
[08:45] <alecwh> yes, but not bare to the bone...
[08:45] <cwatson> shiester_miester, what is the equivalent of ms-paint?
[08:45] <alecwh> Ok...
[08:45] <fury> PanzerMKZ_: yeah, recently got back into it...like just a couple days ago. i already put the SMP client on this machine, it's a Lenovo X60 tablet PC with core duo 1.83ghz
[08:45] <shiester_miester> equivalent for what
[08:45] <Gdog1> so is it the same for intel or amd when it comes to 64 bit? i would think so
[08:45] <fury> and borged my dad's X2 3800+ with Windows...
[08:46] <shiester_miester> notepad is the text-editing equivalent of ms-paint, and vice versa
[08:46] <holycow> alecwh, the problem with your question is that you really don't know much about graphic design unfortunately
[08:46] <fury> time to get my own X2 3800+ going for it
[08:46] <fury> except i'm putting a real OS on there now
[08:46] <cwatson> shiester_miester, what is linux's equivalent of ms-paint?
[08:46] <holycow> alecwh, you are asking for some magic application that doesn't exist and never will
[08:46] <shiester_miester> cwatson, no idea
[08:46] <alecwh> holycow, that's true. I'm more of a CSS/XHTML person. I just use images for small things.
[08:46] <PanzerMKZ_> laugh
[08:46] <fury> i put Ubuntu on his main computer, a T-bred 1700+
[08:46] <PanzerMKZ_> I got alot of clients
[08:46] <fury> and was so moved
[08:46] <alecwh> Fireworks was PERFECT for me.
[08:46] <shiester_miester> alecwh, logos arent really something that you should pass off as being unimportant, they can be /extremely/ important
[08:46] <yknott> cwatson: osalt.com
[08:46] <fury> that i decided i could finally try it on my own computer again
[08:46] <holycow> alecwh, yeah fw is a unique application, there are no replacements for it on any platform, and frankly it sucked
[08:46] <cwatson> shiester_miester, I guess I missunderstood you
[08:46] <alecwh> Really?
[08:47] <Smegzor> My new gigabit network card doesn't get detected in ubuntu.  I now know why though, the computer is an old Compaq and they build their own bios.  Apparently thats the most likely reason why the card won't detect.  Time to build a new file server.
[08:47] <PanzerMKZ_> just loaded latest ubuntu on my new workstation at work
[08:47] <alecwh> Ok, you recommend I learn The GIMP?
[08:47] <holycow> alecwh, what you are going to haveto do maybe is rethink your workflow a bit
[08:47] <shiester_miester> GIMP is pretty solid software
[08:47] <holycow> alecwh, well hard to say, it depends on what you need
[08:47] <fury> first thing when i get into work tomorrow i'm putting it on the core duo 2.0ghz gateway laptop that i'm using
[08:47] <holycow> i know gimp inside and out so it works for me, but it depends on what your specific needs are
[08:47] <fury> but, one thing that i'm really curious about
[08:47] <alecwh> holcow, Ok. if you go to my current website (no advertising intended) http://phpns.com , you can see what sorta stuff I'm looking for.
[08:47] <alecwh> BASIC
[08:47] <yknott> fury: yes?
[08:48] <fury> is why are people saying it's faster to run Ubuntu in a virtual machine under Windows, than to run the Windows SMP folding client
[08:48] <alecwh> Gradients, text...
[08:48] <alecwh> and maybe a simple logo. I'm not an image person.
[08:48] <SunmanXII> hey guys - im having a problem installing the firefox plugin for mplayer. for some reason i can download the tarball with the source and unpack, and run ./config but it wont let me run make - says theres not "makefile" even though there clearly is one
[08:48] <SunmanXII> ideas?
[08:48] <PanzerMKZ_> well I did not know there was a windows SMP client
[08:48] <shiester_miester> alecwh, im a web developer also and i have a designer in my employ to do logos and stuff, he insists on using heavy-duty software (e.g. photoshop, imageready) for it due to the importance of it
[08:48] <Madpilot> alecwh, give Inkscape a shot, It's got a great UI
[08:48] <PanzerMKZ_> if there is it is very new
[08:48] <holycow> alecwh, inkscape can do most of that, maybe learning inkscape and gimp and working together with them will get you what you want
[08:49] <fury> i was looking into how to maximize my folding output, and i can't put linux on my work computer, so i was looking into how that was even possible, that running VMware with Ubuntu on it, and then putting the smp folding client on THAT, was somehow faster
[08:49] <holycow> alecwh, btw, just so tha tyou know, fw is a raster image editor + vector image editor app
[08:49] <shiester_miester> aww man, iapitus left :(
[08:49] <PanzerMKZ_> I don't think it is
[08:49] <holycow> what they did in fw is kinda sorta mix features of both
[08:49] <fury> yeah.. it's only a 32 bit folding client though
[08:49] <PanzerMKZ_> because of the over head
[08:49] <alecwh> OK, sounds great! Thanks a lot holycow, shiester, and Madpilot (and others). Ok, holycow
[08:49] <fury> the linux smp folding client is 64 bit
[08:49] <fury> maybe that is it
[08:49] <holycow> alecwh, but fw is mostly a vector editing application
[08:49] <alecwh> Ok.
[08:49] <PanzerMKZ_> well maybe that is it
[08:49] <holycow> so for your needs inkscape will do about 98% of what i see on that site
[08:49] <cafuego> inkscape++
[08:49] <fury> although, still, VMware itself is a 32 bit application
[08:49] <yknott> fury: on my machine windows is more responsive in a virtualized environment, linux host, than it is directly on the machine; never tried it the other way - windows host + linux guest
[08:49] <holycow> and gimp will help with the other %2
[08:50] <alecwh> ok, great. I'll just have to get used to it. :D
[08:50] <SunmanXII> hey guys - im having a problem installing the firefox plugin for mplayer. for some reason i can download the tarball with the source and unpack, and run ./config but it wont let me run make - says theres not "makefile" even though there clearly is one
[08:50] <holycow> alecwh, thats pretty much it yeah
[08:50] <tritium> !repeat > SunmanXII (see the private message from ubotu)
[08:50] <alecwh> ONce again, thanks a lot. I love support on Ubuntu!
[08:50] <holycow> i hope that helps anyway
[08:50] <alecwh> bye!
[08:50] <Nutubuntu> alecwh,  look for tutorials - they'll help a lot with Gimp
[08:50] <alecwh> oh
[08:50] <alecwh> where can I find those?
[08:50] <PanzerMKZ_> fury: well anything is going to hel
[08:50] <fury> yknott: I tried putting VMware on my x64 install of Windows, Ubuntu was unbearably slow... hell even its clock would take 10 minutes to advance by 1 minute
[08:50] <alecwh> especially for inkscape?
[08:50] <SunmanXII> sorry
[08:51] <yknott> i would blame that on the host more than the guest
[08:51] <fury> yeah
[08:51] <Nutubuntu> Um ... your favorite friendly search engine? Sorry, can't get to my bookmarks right this sec
[08:51] <fury> so, i am really skeptical about it being faster to fold on Ubuntu under VMware than to run a native windows folding client.
[08:51] <alecwh> okk, I'll check Google. :D
[08:52] <shiester_miester> anyway, ill come back tomorrow with my problems
[08:52] <fury> i am anxious to see how fast it is with Ubuntu running natively.
[08:52] <Nutubuntu> Good night all
[08:52] <fury> system is installed :D
[08:52] <fury> rebooting
[08:52] <alecwh> good night!
[08:53] <fury> hm. O_o why is the display sliced in half and shuffled around
[08:53] <fury> on the exit screen
[08:53] <fury> is that just a weird oddity from me using an analog display on a DVI output
[08:54] <holycow> analog display on a dvi output?
[08:54] <holycow> what are you using as a monitor? hdtv?
[08:54] <fury> yeah. i have a Sony 32" HDTV hooked up as my PC monitor. it only has an analog cable
[08:54] <holycow> ohjesus
[08:54] <holycow> :)
[08:54] <fury> but my video card is nothing but DVI
[08:54] <fury> geforce 7800 GT
[08:54] <holycow> you can actually read text on that? :)
[08:54] <fury> yeah. it's pretty good
[08:54] <dave_> there are analog to digital adaptors
[08:54] <fury> 1360x768
[08:54] <tritium> !enter
[08:54] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[08:54] <fury> yeah, i'm using an adapter
[08:55] <holycow> fury, wow, just congrats on making that work i guess :)
[08:55] <holycow> fury, i didn't know it would autodetect
[08:55] <fury> well i had to set up the live cd to run in safe graphics mode
[08:55] <fury> but now that i'm booting up to the finished install it looks fine
[08:55] <holycow> fury, how did you do that? just curious
[08:55] <fury> wondre if i can get it to do 1360x768 intsead of 1024x768
[08:55] <yadra>  is it still normal for an MSI-brand SATA chipset to not be recognized?
[08:55] <dave_> its just a dongle
[08:56] <holycow> fury, if your monitor can handle it sure, your xorg.conf file will tell xserver what to output
[08:56] <fury> holycow: the video card came with an adapter to hook up one analog (i.e. regular DB-15 VGA-style connector) monitor
[08:56] <fury> so i used that
[08:56] <fury> and that was it
[08:56] <fury> works just like a regular monitor
[08:56] <holycow> coolness :)
[08:56] <holycow> fury, so how is the picture quality?
[08:56] <fury> except it also has HDTV tuning, and about 6 other aux inputs
[08:57] <holycow> you say text is readable ... how readable?
[08:57] <holycow> is it a bit blury?
[08:57] <tritium> fury: please heed the note about !enter
[08:57] <fury> as readable as it gets without being DVI
[08:57] <fury> tritium: sorry
[08:57] <holycow> tritium, that should be addressed to me i'm th eone thats asking him questions
[08:57] <andruk> ferronica: searching around for it
[08:57] <tritium> thanks, guys
[08:58] <fury> no blurriness, fine color reproduction, great response time, i can't tell the difference from a CRT monitor in responsiveness
[08:58] <SunmanXII> hey - im having problems isntalling from a tarball( mplayer plugin). I unpacked it and ran ./config but it wont let me run make even though there is an m file. help?
[08:58] <dave_> fury,it should be sharper
[08:58] <holycow> SunmanXII, install build-essential first
[08:59] <holycow> then install anything else that app requires to configure and build
[08:59] <fury> yeah, it's sharper than a CRT for sure. but i was speaking more along the lines of how quickly it updates on like, scrolling and gaming
[08:59] <holycow> it will have some dependencies you will haveto look up
[08:59] <tritium> SunmanXII: what are you compiling?
[08:59] <fury> my $200 Samsung LCD monitor can't beat it in gaming performance
[08:59] <dave_> fury, yeah i dnt think it will affect that
[08:59] <fury> 'course the 32" HDTV was $1,000, but still, way better than i would have expected
[08:59] <holycow> fury, thats interesting i am checking out 24" lcds which are now very affordeable
[08:59] <SunmanXII> wait how do i install build-essential
[09:00] <holycow> SunmanXII, with synaptic
[09:00] <RoAkSoAx> SunmanXII, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[09:00] <tritium> SunmanXII: make sure it's not in the repositories before going through the trouble
[09:00] <andruk> ferronica: fdupes looks to be a good one
[09:00] <Jordan_U> SunmanXII, You know that mplayer is in the repositories?
[09:00] <fury> i wasn't exactly in the market, but i had a computer i turned in due to it being a piece of crap...they gave me store credit since i didn't want another computer... i thought to myself "i need to save this money for something else i might need in the future... save it until it expires or something and get something real nice later on"
[09:01] <SunmanXII> for some reason i couldnt install mplayer firefox plugin
[09:01] <SunmanXII> through the repository
[09:01] <fury> that line of thought lasted for about...1/4 of a second...before i started darting toward the HDTV section of best buy
[09:01] <Jordan_U> SunmanXII, Couldn't in what way?
[09:01] <Jordan_U> SunmanXII, Do you have universe enabled?
[09:01] <leagris> SunmanXII, you should check there is a package available for mplayer-plugin before compiling from sources and isntalling tarbals. Go to menu System/Administration/Synaptic package manager and search for availables packages here
[09:02] <tritium> !info mozilla-mplayer
[09:02] <ubotu> mozilla-mplayer: MPlayer-Plugin for Mozilla. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 3.31+main-1ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 477 kB, installed size 1636 kB
[09:02] <Jordan_U> SunmanXII, Do you have multiverse enabled?
[09:03] <Ra|Ka> http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=62e2otu here's ur joe, now blow
[09:03] <andruk> ferronica: you still there?
[09:03] <tyoc> Hey people some 1 of you have a GF 8800 or similar???
[09:03] <SunmanXII> wow i dont know how i missed that in synaptic - thanks guys!
[09:04] <fury> so then i see this $1,000 sony bravia 32"
[09:04] <fury> end of story :P. on that note, question. is it as simple as just editing xorg.conf and adding "1360x768" in front of "1024x768" in the modes section, to add that resolution to my display options?
[09:04] <tyoc> I will like to know you GPU temperature!!!!!!
[09:05] <BlindSIde> ?
[09:05] <ziroday> help, cant open .png images by doubleclicking or see them as as previews in natilius get the error : The filename "document-properties.png" indicates that this file is of type "png document". The contents of the file indicate that the file is of type "PNG image". If you open this file, the file might present a security risk to your system.
[09:05] <ziroday> Do not open the file unless you created the file yourself, or received the file from a trusted source. To open the file, rename the file to the correct extension for "PNG image", then open the file normally. Alternatively, use the Open With menu to choose a specific application for the file. Any ideas?
[09:05] <tyoc> in the nvidia settings app
[09:05] <holycow> fury, no, you also need the correct vertical and horizontal refresh rates for your display device for those resolutions to appear
[09:05] <ziroday> woops sorry :-[
[09:05] <tritium> fury: you may not even need to do that.  It depends on how the edid is read.
[09:05] <fury> tyoc: i have a 7800, would that count? :P
[09:05] <holycow> you may need to look that up on google if its not in the manuals
[09:05] <tyoc> I guess
[09:05] <siimo> what program to use to play .OGG files  video?
[09:05] <tyoc> How many is the GPU temperature???
[09:05] <BlindSIde> VLC player siimo
[09:05] <Jordan_U> siimo, Movie Player ( totem )
[09:05] <tyoc> fury: mine is at 65
[09:05] <fury> holycow: i think it got that from DPMS
[09:06] <siimo> BlindSIde: i tried VLC i see a black screen and the progress bar going -ve
[09:06] <BlindSIde> hmm
[09:06] <timephoenix> Hello everyone, I need some help recovering a ReiserFS partition which has disappeared
[09:06] <fury> tyoc: how do i check, i've literally just now installed ubuntu :P
[09:06] <Jordan_U> timephoenix, Try testdisk
[09:06] <tyoc> a you will need installed the nvidia drivers
[09:06] <fury> oh
[09:07] <tyoc> if is a clean install I suguest you go with the new 100.14 drivers, Im working with them right now :)
[09:07] <Jordan_U> fury, System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager for Nvidia Drivers
[09:08] <[Hyarion] > hm, for some reason everytime I bootup GNOME I get a Bug Report error and everything works except the top/bottom taskbars, when I close it the error report pops up again, anyone had this happen?
[09:08] <noodles12> h
[09:08] <fury> Jordan_U: the checkbox is cleared, i checked it and hit "Enable driver", it greyed out for a few seconds and then returned to being unchecked
[09:08] <noodles12> !kvm
[09:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kvm - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:09] <timephoenix> Jordan_U: Where can I download testdisk? I'm using the Live CD right now, but even with universe and multiverse enabled it doesn't seem to be on the servers.
[09:09] <Jordan_U> fury, Strange, you can just install the package manually, just *don't* use the ones from Nvidia.com :)
[09:09] <Jordan_U> !nvidia | fury
[09:09] <ubotu> fury: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:09] <illmortal> Does anyone know how to tweak/overclock NVIDIA video cards?
[09:09] <holycow> [Hyarion] , try: sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome-panel
[09:10] <Tom47> [Hyarion] : if you have been removing programs perhaps you could try reinstalling the apropriate desktop deb
[09:10] <holycow> and then logout and log back in and see if that error is still around
[09:10] <aubade> illmortal: There are lines you can add to xorg.conf for, all I know.
[09:10] <Jordan_U> timephoenix, Have you updated the package list since enabling them?
[09:10] <illmortal> aubade, would you happen to have a tutorial?
[09:10] <vecina> new piece of rare knowledge: I just solved a problem ive been working on for months! Why is my dbus not working? why do i have to reinstal it? The answer: if you are using safe mode to avoid the splash screen, you also shut off dbus >.< let it be known!
[09:11] <aubade> illmortal: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_nVidia_Drivers#Activating_Coolbits.3B_Overclocking_Controls_for_nVIDIA_Settings
[09:11] <vecina> *parade*
[09:11] <holycow> vecina, lol
[09:11] <Jordan_U> vecina, What do you mean by "safe mode" ?
[09:11] <holycow> nice :)
[09:11] <vecina> Jordan_U: Recovery even
[09:11] <vecina> Jordan_U: recovery mode does that :/
[09:11] <holycow> vecina, why not just replace the splash with a blank image or just remove the image?
[09:11] <holycow> just a thought anywhoo
[09:11] <Jordan_U> vecina, You should just remove the "splash" kernel parameter
[09:11] <vecina> you see, ive had to be in recovery mode every single time because the splash screen cuts my monitor signal off!
[09:11] <vecina> Jordan_U: I did
[09:11] <leagris> vecina, if you want to avoid splash screen you could as well remove the splash artworks and manager
[09:12] <vecina> may as well
[09:12] <holycow> it cuts off your monitor signal?
[09:12] <vecina> *dances around with joy* for MONTHS ive been dealing with this!
[09:12] <vecina> yes
[09:12] <holycow> oh thats a good one
[09:12] <holycow> what vid card?
[09:12] <vecina> as in, my monitor just blinks out
[09:12] <vecina> ATI of course
[09:12] <vecina> x700
[09:12] <holycow> lol!
[09:12] <Jordan_U> vecina, What happened when you removed the parameter?
[09:12] <holycow> omg that is soooooo funny :)
[09:12] <holycow> vecina, haha, you made my day, i love that
[09:12] <vecina> Jordan_U: I didnt have to reinstall dbus and it booted up like its supposed to
[09:12] <holycow> nice fix btw
[09:13] <vecina> holycow: oh my friend, ive made my day also >.<
[09:13] <vecina> jeez i wonder what else recovery mode has been ruining @.2
[09:13] <[Hyarion] > hmm, is there a hotkey for the terminal? Or a way to access it without going through Applications?
[09:13] <holycow> vecina, you mad mine for the humour of an ati card killing the monitor signal on splash screen, that is just classic
[09:13] <vecina> holycow: Only an ATI could do such a thing
[09:14] <Jordan_U> [Hyarion] , alt+F2 to get a run dialog
[09:14] <holycow> vecina, indeed!
[09:14] <[Hyarion] > Jordan_U, thanks much.
[09:14] <Jordan_U> [Hyarion] , np :)
[09:14] <DrkCodeman> hey Jordan_U cdemu isn't good for ubuntu is it lol
[09:14] <leagris> [Hyarion] , CTRL+ALT+F1-F4 bring text console
[09:14] <vecina> holycow: Never again shall i buy radeons....
[09:14] <holycow> vecina, i stopped buying ati on windows when i used to 3d
[09:14] <vecina> Okay guys, i have to patch this up. Whats the file for editing my grub entries?
[09:14] <holycow> they have always been known to have very very bad drivers
[09:15] <Jordan_U> [Hyarion] , Ctrl+alt+f7 to get back to X
[09:15] <vecina> holycow: I got an ATI cause it was cheaper than the nvidia equivalent
[09:15] <DrkCodeman> hmm
[09:15] <dave_> i used to buy ati until i learned
[09:15] <Tom47> vecina sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:15] <vecina> heck if i wasnt using an ati i MIGHT be able to use beryl by now :P but no... not without itty bitty text
[09:15] <holycow> vecina, /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:15] <holycow> what he said
[09:15] <vecina> Tom47: thanks
[09:15] <Jordan_U> leagris, Never tell someone to go to another tty without telling them how to get back to X :)
[09:15] <vecina> and thanks to you too holy
[09:16] <noodles12> For ubuntu, is KVM the most reliable,stable, and fastest way to run windows in a virtual environment? or should i stick with VMware?
[09:16] <holycow> ya no worries
[09:16] <DrkCodeman> Jordan_U, ello?
[09:16] <vecina> lol for some reason i have duplicate entries in my grub
[09:16] <Jordan_U> DrkCodeman, Hi
[09:16] <DrkCodeman> Jordan_U, can ya comment on cdemu and ubuntu?
[09:17] <Jordan_U> vecina, Are you sure they aren't just previous kernels?
[09:17] <DrkCodeman> or have you not heard of cdemu?
[09:17] <Tom47> vecina may reflect kernel updates
[09:17] <Tom47> snap
[09:17] <Jordan_U> DrkCodeman, Never heard of it :)
[09:17] <vecina> Yeah, its a kernal update
[09:17] <DrkCodeman> ahh ok
[09:17] <vecina> your right
[09:17] <vecina> one's 15 one's 16
[09:17] <DrkCodeman> its a cdimage mounting tool :)
[09:17] <vecina> 16's better i guess hehe
[09:17] <DrkCodeman> apparently its hard to find support for other image types
[09:17] <DrkCodeman> other than iso :(
[09:17] <DrkCodeman> so you have to convert image files to iso
[09:18] <Rictoo> What is a command I can run to remove junk from the system? (I already did 'apt-get clean')
[09:18] <DrkCodeman> checks his linux version of ut2k4
[09:19] <Jordan_U> Rictoo, Possibly clean out /tmp ( though it's probably not that cluttered )
[09:19] <Frogzoo> Jordan_U: clearing out /tmp on a running machine isn't a good plan
[09:19] <NeoGeo64> Hey guys, remember when I was jokng about how to find out if my copy of Ubuntu was genuine?
[09:20] <NeoGeo64> this just in on slashdot  Ubuntu Linux Validates As Genuine Windows
[09:20] <Jordan_U> Frogzoo, Sorry, Rictoo see Frogzoo's comment

[09:20] <ubotu> NeoGeo64: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:20] <Tom47> NeoGeo64: spooky
[09:20] <noodles12> Frogzoo: this isnt' totally related, but I keep running out of space on my ubuntu installation. Where are all the things i can delete? ( similar to windows' ttemp and temp internet files?)
[09:20] <holycow> NeoGeo64, haha
[09:20] <NeoGeo64> im psychic :D
[09:21] <holycow> NeoGeo64, and so how DID you figure out if your copy of ubuntu is genuine?
[09:21] <NeoGeo64> i was joking where i could find and download Ubuntu Genuine Advantage
[09:21] <NeoGeo64> a bit earlier
[09:21] <holycow> haha thats a good one :)
[09:21] <NeoGeo64> then this shows up haha
[09:21] <holycow> "ubuntu genuine advantage'
[09:21] <BlackChaos> fuck, fury i wasnt able to do it
[09:21] <MacDrunk> hello
[09:21] <holycow> the hair on my back stands up when i think that
[09:21] <ideasman_42> is there an easy way to lauch a script from a menu?
[09:21] <Jordan_U> !hi | MacDrunk
[09:21] <ubotu> MacDrunk: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[09:22] <BlackChaos> but i was able to write down the error message here is wat it said
[09:22] <MacDrunk> need help on unistall kde- desktop
[09:22] <ideasman_42> I need to have the script run as root
[09:22] <BlackChaos>  Your home directory listed as: /home/BlackChaosxxx, but does not appear to exist. do you want to log in with the /root directory as your home directory? it is unlikely anything will work unless you use a failsafe session, and it had the options of yes or no
[09:22] <BlackChaos> so i said yes
[09:22] <ideasman_42> gnome-terminal -e "sudo ...."
[09:22] <Jordan_U> ideasman_42, Use alacarte and gksudo
[09:22] <MacDrunk> sup jordsn u
[09:22] <ideasman_42> is not working
[09:22] <Tom47> !ohmy | BlackChaos
[09:22] <ubotu> BlackChaos: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:22] <Frogzoo> noodles12: you can go through synaptic removing installs you don't need, and you can run filelight to find where all your space has gone
[09:22] <BlackChaos> than another error message came up here it is:
[09:22] <BlackChaos> users $HOME/.dmrc file is being ignored. this prevents the default session and language from being saved. file should be owned by user and have 644 permission. users $HOME directory must be owned by user and not writable by other users
[09:22] <vecina> Well, that was the fastest, smoothest boot ive had since Edgy
[09:23] <BlackChaos> oh srry 4 the curse
[09:23] <noodles12> Frogzoo: so there aren't any places like in windows where linux keeps "trash" like "temp" and "temporary internet files" ?
[09:23] <vecina> graphics working right, dbus functional...
[09:23] <chowmeined> this is so cool!!!
[09:23] <chowmeined> http://www.ubuntustats.com/
[09:23] <vecina> i love you guys
[09:23] <MacDrunk> ive run synaptic no unistall KDE but like to do it on console terminal
[09:23] <vecina> <3
[09:23] <chowmeined> everybody go dig it
[09:23] <vecina> ron_ ?
[09:23] <MacDrunk> and i dont know the sudo apt-get command to uninstall kde-desktop
[09:24] <Myrtti> ron_: let that be the last time
[09:24] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop --auto-remove
[09:24] <vecina> its probably sudo aptitude remove kde_desktop
[09:24] <MacDrunk> ok
[09:24] <ron_> k
[09:24] <vecina> i was very close
[09:24] <vecina> :)
[09:24] <Frogzoo> noodles12: /tmp - but a lot of what you see in there is being used - well behaved apps will clean tmp files on exit, also /tmp is emptied on reboot
[09:24] <fury> hm... what would make sudo apt-get install ia32-libs die with a seg fault?
[09:25] <ideasman_42> gtksudo isnt working
[09:25] <MacDrunk> thanks jordan u
[09:25] <Jordan_U> ideasman_42, gksudo
[09:25] <MacDrunk> kubunto is good
[09:25] <ideasman_42> hang on...
[09:25] <MacDrunk> but to far complicated to me
[09:25] <MacDrunk> windows like
[09:26] <MacDrunk> be back
[09:26] <MacDrunk> need to reboot
[09:26] <fury> hm.
[09:27] <fury> i just told the system to restart, and now it's locked up. nothing is happening.. except the terminal is blinking. mouse clicks don't do anything, but i can move the mouse itself
[09:27] <cotyrothery> hey how do i compile c++
[09:27] <cotyrothery> i have gcc
[09:27] <Gdog1> seems weird a new install of kubuntu wouldn't have firefox included
[09:27] <cotyrothery> its my first time using it
[09:28] <Jordan_U> fury, Can you get to a tty ( terminal ) by pressing ctrl+alt+F1 ?
[09:29] <phro1> exit
[09:29] <fury> too late :P i already reset it the hard way
[09:29] <cotyrothery> can someone tell me how to compile c++ in ubuntu
[09:29] <cotyrothery> and run it
[09:29] <cotyrothery> im trying to learn c++
[09:29] <Frogzoo> cotyrothery: why compile c++? it's in the repos - install build-essential
[09:29] <cormarrr> Hi, I'm trying to install WoW under WINE, I have the files copied over from my XP partition and WINE installed but it won't run it
[09:30] <Jordan_U> fury, Ok, next time that happens just know that there are varying degrees of ways to force a machine to shut down :)
[09:30] <Frogzoo> !appdb | cormarrr
[09:30] <ubotu> cormarrr: Appdb is a database of apps & help for programs that run under wine: see http://appdb.winehq.org
[09:30] <cotyrothery> Frongzoo: what do you mean?
[09:30] <fury> yeah, i've done shutdown -r now on my web server many more times than i would have liked. :P
[09:30] <MacDrunk> hey jordan u
[09:31] <cotyrothery> Frogzoo: what do you mean?
[09:31] <Jordan_U> cotyrothery, He probably thought you were trying to install an application by compiling, rather than learning c++ and coding one yourself
[09:31] <cotyrothery> oh
[09:31] <MacDrunk> i unistall kde desktop and everytime i turn up my laptop the kubuntu progress bar appers then it changes to ubuntu login screen any ideas why
[09:31] <Frogzoo> cotyrothery: see the appdb for WoW details
[09:31] <cotyrothery> no im trining to learning it so i can help with ubuntu
[09:31] <noodles12> anyone here familiar iwth KVM?
[09:32] <cotyrothery> Frogzoo: why would i care about wow
[09:32] <fury> i love what they did with my internet connection... i got a free boost of 300kb/s download speed...was getting like 600 at the most, now i get 880-900
[09:32] <ideasman_42> this is crazy.. is there no way to make a menu that launches a script as root?
[09:32] <fury> makes the updates pretty quick to download
[09:32] <cotyrothery> fury: how
[09:32] <ideasman_42> Im trying many combinations of gnome-terminal -x
[09:32] <ferronica> andruk: yes i am here
[09:33] <ideasman_42> with sudo and gtksu
[09:33] <cormarrr> ubotu, all I see are problems with textures and things, I can't even get it running. I folllowed the ubuntuforums.org howto
[09:33] <cotyrothery> ubotu is a bot
[09:33] <ubotu> Yes, I can confirm that I am a bot. http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots for all information.
[09:33] <fury> cotyrothery: nothing i did, they just bumped up my speeds
[09:33] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, I guess it didn't remove the kde splash screen, the package is called "kubuntu-artwork-usplash" Just remove it
[09:33] <cotyrothery> fury: oh well thats nice
[09:34] <fury> yeah
[09:34] <cormarrr> nice, oh well, anyone else?
[09:34] <cotyrothery> fury: you do know its all in your router
[09:34] <cotyrothery> fury: the box they give you
[09:34] <MacDrunk> jordan u but on the login seesions it still apers
[09:34] <fury> cotyrothery: not really
[09:34] <fury> they can limit it at the plant
[09:34] <fury> cable office
[09:34] <cotyrothery> they have diffrent models
[09:34] <fury> whatever you wanna call it
[09:34] <fury> they gave me anew modem a while ago but it was still the same speed up until a few days ago
[09:35] <cotyrothery> frogzoo: so how do i compile my c++ code
[09:35] <ferronica> !seen andruk
[09:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about seen andruk - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:35] <Talaman72> andruk was last seen Wed Jun  6 00:35:19 2007 changing nick from drew in #ubuntu
[09:35] <Tom47> !wow > cormarrr
[09:35] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, I guess it didn't remove any of the dependencies of kubuntu-desktop, did you install kubuntu-desktop with apt-get?
[09:35] <cotyrothery> fury: i can download at 400 kb/s
[09:35] <MacDrunk> yea
[09:35] <MacDrunk> i didy
[09:35] <cotyrothery> fury: everyday it goes up some
[09:35] <MacDrunk> didt
[09:35] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, And you used --auto-remove when you removed it?
[09:35] <fury> hm. does the update manager know to get the 64-bit packages? cause I just saw it download what appeared to be the exact same packages as it did on the 32-bit version i installed on my dad's computer
[09:35] <BlackChaos> can sum 1 hlp me ive been w8ting 4 hlp 4 a while now
[09:36] <mbt> Does anyone know about any tricks to configuring NIS client software under Feisty?
[09:36] <MacDrunk> yes as you told me
[09:36] <BlackChaos>  Your home directory listed as: /home/BlackChaosxxx, but does not appear to exist. do you want to log in with the /root directory as your home directory? it is unlikely anything will work unless you use a failsafe session, and it had the options of yes or no
[09:36] <BlackChaos> so i said yes
[09:36] <ideasman_42> can a launcher be told to start in a terminal?
[09:36] <BlackChaos> than another error message came up here it is:
[09:36] <fury> cotyrothery: mine was at roughly 600kb/s for the longest time...had it fo rabout a year I think. then all of a sudden a few days ago (first noticed when i was downloading the ubuntu iso's) I was getting 850kb/s and up
[09:36] <BlackChaos> users $HOME/.dmrc file is being ignored. this prevents the default session and language from being saved. file should be owned by user and have 644 permission. users $HOME directory must be owned by user and not writable by other users
[09:36] <MacDrunk> but i did a search on synaptic to find the usplash file and its there whit other kubuntu files installed
[09:36] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, Ok, well I guess you just have to remove all the packages that kubuntu-desktop installs, there is a list somewhere ...
[09:36] <cotyrothery> fury: how do you have such good speed
[09:37] <fury> my connection was purchased at 5mbit/384kbit. they wanted $30 more a month for the 8mbit/512kbit
[09:37] <MacDrunk> i better reinstall ubuntu from 0
[09:37] <Flannel> BlackChaos: what did you do before you got this error?
[09:37] <cotyrothery> fury: my bill is like 50 bucks
[09:37] <fury> so i said nah stick with the cheap stuff. but they must have bumped me up for free for all the problems i keep having with it
[09:37] <cotyrothery> fury: i use carter cable
[09:37] <fury> brighthouse networks / road runner cable internet
[09:37] <mbt> I can get 'ypcat passwd' to work, but authentication to a NIS server always fails (server is running FreeBSD if that helps)
[09:38] <cotyrothery> fury: never heard of them
[09:38] <mbt> s/a/the
[09:38] <linux_probe> RR is 7Mbps x 512Kbps now
[09:38] <linux_probe> thats standard package
[09:38] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, This is for edgy http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Uninstall_kubuntu-desktop
[09:38] <fury> cool
[09:38] <MacDrunk> ok
[09:38] <BlackChaos> flannel: i chg the home directory from jayxxx to BlackChaosxxx
[09:38] <cotyrothery> what is the ubuntu dev channel
[09:38] <linux_probe> their turbo package is now 15Mbps x 768Kbps
[09:38] <MacDrunk> do i use software sources program to remove
[09:39] <fury> hmmm
[09:39] <Flannel> BlackChaos: why'd you do that?
[09:39] <fury> i might be willing to buy that
[09:39] <linux_probe> for $9.95 more a month
[09:39] <MacDrunk> and then make a sudo apt-get update???
[09:39] <fury> that's decnt speed right there
[09:39] <Jordan_U> cotyrothery, #ubuntu-devel
[09:39] <cotyrothery> thanks
[09:39] <BlackChaos> flannel cause i wanted to chg it no real reason i guess
[09:39] <linux_probe> standard here is $44.95 month, turbo is $54.90  month
[09:40] <linux_probe> turbo isn't available in all areas yet
[09:40] <fury> like, fiber optic rivalling speed. only, i wish the upload speed would be better. i have to do a lot of uploading, and they seem convinced i'm running some kind of server, when i keep telling them it's just me uploading big files to my web sites all the time :x
[09:40] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, Software Sources only adds / removes repositories, not applications
[09:40] <fury> i'm paying $36/mo for standard
[09:40] <linux_probe> they don't want you running a server
[09:40] <fury> i know they don't. and i'm not
[09:41] <jontec> fury: get a big stick, they'll listen
[09:41] <Flannel> BlackChaos: Well, you changed where your user was looking for it's home stuff, but you didn't change where thehome stuff actually was.  That's why you're having problems.  Changing it back will fix it, or moving your old homedir to where it's currently looking.  I'd suggest changing the homedir back over renaming it, since it's usual for homedirs to be /home/username, and moving it back would be that
[09:41] <linux_probe> you can if you keep the bandwidth useage low and obviously it's private
[09:41] <MacDrunk> jorda u
[09:41] <MacDrunk> it says no program to remove
[09:41] <cotyrothery> i have a server running
[09:41] <cotyrothery> off my hd
[09:41] <cotyrothery> just need to get a dns
[09:41] <BlackChaos> flannel: k can u give me the cmd to do all of this
[09:42] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, When you run that long apt-get remove command?
[09:42] <Flannel> BlackChaos: sure.  You're at a root terminal right now?
[09:42] <MacDrunk> not the long one
[09:42] <MacDrunk> the second one
[09:42] <fury> yay, folding!

[09:43] <Flannel> NeoGeo64: #ubuntu-offtopic for non-support chatter, thanks.
[09:43] <linux_probe> lmao @ linux genuine advatage
[09:43] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, The second one won't work unless you also installed the package with aptitude ( plus you already removed it with apt-get so the package is not there, just it's dependencies )
[09:43] <Flannel> BlackChaos: `usermod -d /home/jayxxx jayxxx`  Assuming your username is 'jayxxx' and that's also the folder (remember it's case sensitive)
[09:44] <MacDrunk> jordan u it says unmet dependecies
[09:44] <MacDrunk> whats that???
[09:44] <Tom47> wild oats?
[09:44] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, That's probably because the list of packages is from Edgy and not Feisty, let me find an up to date list...
[09:44] <MacDrunk> hmm man
[09:45] <MacDrunk> wont be better to do a full install again?
[09:45] <BlackChaos> Flannel my current ubuntu user name is blackchaosxxx
[09:45] <Flannel> BlackChaos: Er... Are you sure?
[09:45] <Flannel> BlackChaos: did you change that? or something?
[09:45] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, No need, this really isn't as hard as it seems, once I find the list you just have to run the command
[09:46] <MacDrunk> ok
[09:46] <MacDrunk> ill whait
[09:46] <mbt> Anyone know why Ubuntu won't authenticate users against a FreeBSD NIS server?  I can su - username from root just fine, but I cannot login directly.
[09:46] <BlackChaos> no u said /home/jayxxx jayxxx`  Assuming your username is 'jayxxx, its blackchaosxxx
[09:47] <MacDrunk> jordan_u, do u use ubuntu or kubuntu???
[09:47] <BlackChaos> so ill just put blckchaos instead
[09:47] <linux_probe> oh brother
[09:47] <Flannel> BlackChaos: if that's the case, why was it originally jayxxx?
[09:47] <BlackChaos> dam i confused my own self
[09:47] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2855205
[09:48] <linux_probe> some people are born confused =P
[09:48] <BlackChaos> k first i had jayxxx as a username and home directory name so when i chged it  i wanted to chg everything both username and homedir name
[09:49] <Flannel> BlackChaos: Alright.  Gotcha.  All you have left to do is move your homedir.  from /home/jayxxx to /home/blackchaosxxx or whatever.
[09:49] <BlackChaos> im new to linux so i know nothing of linux so can u give me the cmd
[09:50] <Tom47> BlackChaos did you create a new user blackchaosxxx or simply decide to become that
[09:51] <Flannel> BlackChaos: `mv /home/jayxxx /home/blackchaosxxx`
[09:51] <BlackChaos> know i decided to chg my current username to that one
[09:51] <BlackChaos> kk brb flannel hope this would wrk
[09:51] <Flannel> BlackChaos: you renamed your user, correct?  So all the files in /home/jayxxx are owned by blackchaosxxx currently?
[09:52] <agata> haihai.......................!!!!!!!!!!!1
[09:53] <BlackChaos> yes i did rename my user from jayxxx to blackchaosxxx and i also chged my home from jayxx to BlackChaosxxx
[09:53] <Flannel> BlackChaos: riht, now you just need to move the folder to the new one.
[09:53] <BlackChaos> and i also chged my home from jayxxx
[09:53] <MacDrunk> jordan_u, better re install ubuntu i think
[09:53] <BlackChaos> flannel and i do this by typing the cmd that u gave ma?
[09:53] <Flannel> BlackChaos: yeah.  mv is MoVe
[09:54] <BlackChaos> kk let me try
[09:54] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, That seems like over kill to me but if you don't have anything that you are going to miss then sure.
[09:54] <MacDrunk> jordan_u, no need seems that works
[09:55] <seraph> hello all
[09:55] <MacDrunk> jordan_u, use this set of commands here on this page http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome
[09:55] <seraph> how do I get a list of all currently installed packages?
[09:55] <seraph> dpkg -l lists it out, but with extra info
[09:56] <seraph> I want something I can feed back into apt-get
[09:56] <crdlb> !clone
[09:56] <ubotu> To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type  dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages , move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type  sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade  - See also !automate
[09:56] <seraph> ah thanks
[09:56] <seraph> !automate
[09:56] <ubotu> Ways to automate installation of Ubuntu on multiple machines are described at https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/installation-guide/i386/automatic-install.html - See also !cloning
[09:56] <seraph> ooh
[09:56] <oxygen> exit
never work unless he edits /etc/group
[09:58] <jscinoz> Hey guys, one thing i've really missed from windows is a feature in a variety of screen capture programs that create a fake webcam driver that is a screen cap, is there a linux variant of this?
[09:59] <mariocesar_bo> Hello all, why ubuntu takes so long to check the "reading files needed to boot" step when booting?
yup i just can't remember it lol
[09:59] <seraph> mariocesar_bo: how long are we talking about/
[09:59] <jscinoz> >_<
[09:59] <MacDrunk> jordan_u, did you see it
[09:59] <mariocesar_bo> exactly 22 seconds
[09:59] <seraph> mariocesar_bo: wow that's really long
[09:59] <mariocesar_bo> it's to much
[09:59] <jscinoz> I've been using gtkrecordmydesktop for screencaps, and it works fine, but i need something that has a fake webcam driver thing.
[10:00] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, Your last comment? yes
[10:00] <mariocesar_bo> it get slow, since update ubuntu this week
[10:00] <MacDrunk> jordan_u, the page i mention?
[10:00] <MacDrunk> did you see it
[10:00] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, Yes
[10:01] <MacDrunk> ok i follow those steps and it seems that is working
[10:01] <BlackChaos> hey flannel
[10:01] <jontec> who the heck is flannel?
[10:01] <bjwebb_> i can't get into any apt program, because it says apt is already running
[10:01] <bjwebb_> and theres no window open
[10:01] <bjwebb_> so how do i end it?
[10:02] <boniu> boniu
[10:02] <seraph> bjwebb_: what about the icon in the tray?
[10:02] <jscinoz> bjwebb, sudo killall apt-get aptitude
[10:02] <Myrtti> bjwebb_: not even update-manager?
[10:02] <BlackChaos> flannel: when i tryed it it said permission denied
[10:02] <seraph> the package manager... is it currently busy
[10:02] <seraph> it might be running a routine update
[10:02] <bjwebb_> thers an update icon
[10:02] <bjwebb_> but that won't run either
[10:03] <Jordan_U> bjwebb_, Are you sure that you aren't running any other install programs? If so did an install program crash recently?
[10:03] <bjwebb_> Another process is using the packaging system database (probably some other Adept application or apt-get or aptitude). Please close the other application before using this one.
[10:03] <mariocesar_bo> so, what does the "Reading files needed to boot" to take so long to check ????
[10:03] <bjwebb_> Jordan_U: one might of crashed, how would i find it and end it?
[10:04] <Nowald> hi
[10:04] <BlackChaos> flannel: when i tryed it it said permission denied
[10:04] <mariocesar_bo> i am pretty frustated about this ... _
[10:05] <bjwebb_> how do i find and end a process?
[10:05] <neil_feisty> bjwebb_, ps -e then kill signal
[10:06] <crdlb> !adeptfix | bjwebb_
[10:06] <ubotu> bjwebb_: If Adept crashed on you and your database is locked, try this in konsole:  sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a 
[10:06] <Jordan_U> bjwebb_, It probably quit without removing it's lock on dpkg, check for any install program, reboot if you don't know how to, and if it still doesn't work run: sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/lock
[10:07] <K3rl0u4rn> hi people, I wonder why thunderbird 2.x is not present in synaptic... anybody with an hint on this is welcome
[10:07] <bjwebb_> i have restarted, im trying wat uboto suggested
[10:07] <MacDrunk> jordan_u, i run the command on a terminal windows and is removing all of the programs listed on the page i told you to look at
[10:07] <BlackChaos> hey flanel r u there i meed u to hlp me i tried the cmd and it said can not move because permisiion is denied
[10:07] <Jordan_U> bjwebb_, And: sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[10:07] <bjwebb_> yay for the bot, it worked :D
[10:08] <DJ-_-> hey when i try to install my intel chipset drivers i get the errors which are pasted at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26085/
[10:08] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, Ok, good
[10:08] <Jordan_U> DJ-_-, Why are you compiling them?
[10:09] <DJ-_-> Jordan_U: they are automatically compiling when i run the shell script
[10:09] <Jordan_U> DJ-_-, What shell script? Why aren't you using the drivers that come with Ubuntu?
[10:09] <MacDrunk> jordan_u, can i have two linux versions installed lets say ubuntu in onte partition and kubuntu in another?
[10:09] <DJ-_-> Jordan_U: well some graphic problems....i cant run some stuff so i need to install the stuff....any ideas?
[10:09] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, Yes
[10:10] <MacDrunk> ok
[10:10] <crdlb> MacDrunk, but you can install kubuntu-desktop directly on ubuntu
[10:10] <crdlb> you wouldn't need two partitions for that
[10:10] <MacDrunk> hmm no
[10:10] <MacDrunk> if i want to try both i dont like the one conflicts whit the other
[10:10] <Jordan_U> DJ-_-, I doubt that installing from wherever you are installing is going to help, in fact it may cause problems that you won't know how to solve if you don't know what you are doing
[10:10] <varka> K3rl0u4rn: http://ubuntu.iuculano.it/dists/feisty/thunderbird/
[10:11] <tanlaan> I have forgotten how to get my pci wifi card to work with linux, it needed something like bcmxxcutter or something like that. Here is what it is http://tinyurl.com/ynm4vv
[10:11] <DJ-_-> Jordan_U: so i cant basically install them?
[10:11] <crdlb> DJ-_-, what problems and what stuff?
[10:11] <MacDrunk> better to have one part of the hdd for each, that way i can kill one whit out screwing whit the other
[10:11] <Jordan_U> DJ-_-, By intel chipset do you mean intel GFX?
[10:11] <DJ-_-> crdlb: i am trying to install some vga drivers....log at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26085/
[10:11] <crdlb> DJ-_-, what problems made you try that?
[10:12] <DJ-_-> Jordan_U: vga drivers...
[10:12] <crdlb> and what stuff isn't working?
[10:12] <Sepero> Anyone here use an Intel536ep modem?
[10:12] <DJ-_-> crdlb: basically some colour depths and screen resolution
[10:12] <crdlb> DJ-_-, the intel driver included with ubuntu is capable of all that
[10:12] <DJ-_-> crdlb: max listed is 1024*768 where as i can go upto 1280*1024
[10:12] <MacDrunk> jordan_u the command has just finished do i run a sudo apt-get update???
[10:12] <crdlb> it is the official intel driver
[10:12] <Jordan_U> DJ-_-, have you tried installing 915resolution and do you know that 24 bit is the same as 32 in windows?
[10:13] <Jordan_U> MacDrunk, No need to, it's done
[10:14] <MacDrunk> ok
[10:14] <DJ-_-> Jordan_U: what about the screen resolution then
[10:14] <MacDrunk> ill be back then
[10:14] <crdlb> DJ-_-, what intel chip is it?
[10:14] <MacDrunk> going to restart
[10:14] <crdlb> lspci|grep VGA
[10:14] <Jordan_U> DJ-_-, That will be fixed by installing the package 915resolution by running: sudo apt-get install 915resolution
[10:14] <DJ-_-> crdlb: asrock p4i56gv motherboard with intel 865 chipset
[10:14] <MacDrunk> wow no need
[10:14] <DJ-_-> Jordan_U: ok thx
[10:14] <MacDrunk> i no see no more the kde apps or progs
[10:14] <DJ-_-> p4i65*
[10:14] <BlackChaos> i typed mv /home/name /home/name to fix a prob that i have but it said permission denied can sum hlp to be able to do this
[10:15] <cBau> BlackChaos did you use sudo?
[10:15] <DJ-_-> crdlb and Jordan_U: thx for da help
[10:15] <gordonjcp> BlackChaos: for one thing you can't move a directory onto itself
[10:15] <MacDrunk> every day i love ubuntu more
[10:15] <MacDrunk> haha
[10:15] <cBau> I assumed he was moving from one to the other
[10:15] <BlackChaos> no
[10:15] <MacDrunk> how many work spaces can whe have?
[10:15] <cBau> use sudo
[10:15] <MacDrunk> only 2
[10:15] <BlackChaos> just the cmd that i typed above
[10:15] <gordonjcp> BlackChaos: I don't know what your problem is, but just mv'ing /home/<user> without knowing all the implications is likely to give you even more problems
[10:15] <cBau> cause both homes have seperate permissions
[10:16] <cBau> that is true gordon
if you do that then you need to also edit group and change the name
[10:16] <BlackChaos> huh guess ill have to explain the prob again i  didnt want to but
[10:16] <cBau> are you just trying to move files (music, movies) or settings... or what?
[10:17] <gordonjcp> BlackChaos: in general you'd need to be root to do that
[10:17] <DJ-_-> Jordan_U: another question...I cant chg my screen refresh rate..
[10:17] <K3rl0u4rn> varka: thank you but I didn't ask where I can download it or how... just wondered why thunderbird 2.x is not in the official repo. It must be a reason for this
[10:18] <gordonjcp> BlackChaos: and you probably want to be running as another user, ie. not trying to move your own homedir
 it would be easier to add a new user with the name then copy over the files
[10:18] <cBau> you could just sudo mv.... but it may break something, never tried it with one home folder to another
[10:18] <fury> ubuntu just randomly logged me out, i had to reenter my password and everything... how do i find out what happened? i think i briefly saw a black screen, but i couldn't tell what was on it before the login screen came back up
[10:18] <BlackChaos> i chged the home dir from jayxxx to blackchaosxxx and when i tried to log in it said that i cant log in because home/BlackChaosxxx does not exist or can not be found
[10:18] <pinky> hi...........
[10:19] <BlackChaos> it gave the option to go to root so i said yes and it took me to terminal
 what does ls /home say is it there
[10:19] <DJ-_-> another question...I cant chg my screen refresh rate..any ideas?
[10:19] <cBau> Fury: You might check the system log... System-->Administration--->System Log
[10:19] <fury> system log says "Received signal 15, shutting down cleanly", then "Exiting", then "starting (version 2.18.0.1)..."
 edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:20] <DJ-_-> insmod: what do i edit in that file
 ah ! refresh rate
[10:20] <BlackChaos> wat insmod
[10:20] <DJ-_-> ya
 edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:20] <fury> oh. in syslog, just before signal 15 it says "/USR/SBIN/CRON[7193] : (root) CMD (  cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly)
[10:20] <varka> K3rl0u4rn: the release didnt make it before the version freeze for feisty, thats the whole story
[10:20] <fury> did the cron restart my system?
 what does ls /home say -- is that user there
[10:21] <fury> cause that just fudged my folding and ended my game of solitaire early >.<
[10:21] <DJ-_-> insmod: phrase not found for refresh lol
[10:21] <cBau> Fury: I don't know... and lol, sorry for your loss.
[10:21] <cBau> Beyond my realm of knowingness :)

[10:28] <rangans> Hi CoolGuy21 yes you can use ftp tp download something from an ftp site but those are rare nowadays
[10:28] <Frogzoo> CoolGuy21: if you're d/ling off the web, use wget
[10:28] <DJ-_-> how do i kill x and bring it back up..i need to set my screen depth through Xorg -depth 16
[10:28] <rangans> CollGuy21 : if you would like to download from an http site try wget it is a simple yet powerful downloader
[10:28] <Frogzoo> DJ-_-: ctrl + alt + backspace (twice)
[10:28] <DJ-_-> ok thx
[10:29] <sit2> oh no...any ideas?
[10:30] <rangans> HI guys once again can anyone help me with my vino vnc server problem
 set default then killall -9 (pid) or reboot
[10:32] <fury> hm
[10:32] <sit2> Hi anyones....I also need help to to how am i can import my .pst to evolution mail calendering
[10:32] <fury> wish i would have known that about 15 seconds ago. i just had to reset my machine cause X wasn't responding
[10:33] <fury> black screen, only the mouse pointer
 did the tty's work
[10:35] <fury> no. couldn't get back to it. i ctrl+alt+f1'd, then logged in, and started my folding process there, then hit ctrl+alt+f7, and then all i ccould do was move the mouse. ctrl+alt+f-anything didn't work
[10:35] <fury> in fact it did it again, but ctrl+alt+backspace got me back to the ubuntu login screen so i could log in
 so it worked -- all you had to do was kill the app
[10:36] <fury> yeah. but i really don't think i'd like to have to kill X and restart it every time i want to switch to a regular terminal and back
[10:36] <fury> is there a better way to go to one of the TTY's and then back to X?
 just kill the pid
[10:37] <fury> what pid?
[10:37] <insmod> the one that is the prob
 the one that locks the system
[10:38] <SEOmoz> !pastebin
[10:38] <fury> no, it doesn't lock anything, it's just that X doesn't get back to my session. X goes blank, so i have to restart X
[10:38] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[10:38] <fury> i don't want that to happen
[10:38] <Sepero> fury: You should be able to switch between tty's with only Ctrl+F-
[10:38] <marpstarL> anyone got a site that'll help me get started with developing linux applications?
 from tty ?
[10:39] <fury> insmod: no, ctrl-alt-backspace
[10:39] <fury> after switching back from a tty
 well that is why
[10:39] <Sepero> marpstarL: Do you know anything about programming at all?
[10:39] <Frogzoo> marpstarL: best to find a simple app you like & d/l 'apt-get source package'
[10:39] <Frogzoo> marpstarL: then take a look through the code
[10:39] <marpstarL> i'm familar with both c++ and java in windows
 just use a term
[10:40] <marpstarL> lots of vb.net
[10:40] <fury> well
 just use a term
[10:40] <marpstarL> just got into ubuntu and wanna start getting into application development
[10:40] <fury> X just had a fatal error and restarted, and i lost all the work that the folding process had done inside the terminal under X
[10:41] <modconfig> so, i'm really confused. in rhythmbox, i'm unable to have the mp3 set as the preferred format...
[10:41] <Sepero> marpstarL: Try running any java app that you made for win. See if you can convert it to Lin.
[10:41] <master5o1> hi
[10:41] <modconfig> and it's set as active
[10:41] <fury> so if there is some way i can get the folding process to not exit whenever X is restarted i'd be happy to do that
 something sounds borked -- i would -- apt-get -f install
[10:42] <modconfig> it simply does not show in the list.
[10:42] <master5o1> would anyone like to check out the Content Management System i wrote? irc.au.freenode.net, asimov.freenode.net
[10:42] <master5o1> fook... http://master5o1.awardspace.com/cms/index.php ... damn clipboard
[10:43] <fury> insmod: what to install?
[10:43] <magnethead> wow..forums aren't kdding when they say it gets ffull in here
 -f fixes install
[10:43] <modconfig> any ideas on why? or is this a bug/feature???
[10:44] <fury> ok. so just that? cause it just says 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded
[10:44] <magnethead> would somebody be willing to help me when oportunity arrives? I have a pair of questions, one simple, one not so
 try it
[10:44] <fury> yeah, i did
[10:45] <fury> is that all it's supposed to say?
 no

[10:47] <fury> insmod: how? i'm completely new at this :x
[10:47] <magnethead> their on the forums but haven't really been dealt much with, but one is over menu.lst, and other is getting 3 operating systems on 3 hard drives to co-exist without blowing up
[10:47] <fury> well, at least, i haven't touched a linux distro for home use in 7 years
[10:47] <fury> so i'm as good as new
[10:47] <magnethead> if you would like, i can put the link here to save time
 ihave only ran unix for 12 yrs lol

[10:56] <jhaig> magnethead: I don't know if you can do it in software but normally you can adjust your monitor.
[10:56] <lithiumX> no prob
[10:57] <ziroday> anybody
[10:57] <magnethead> well nvidia on the windows side has an adjustment for it..maybe i'll adjust it for ubuntu then and use nvidia to corrdct it in windows
[10:57] <MrKeuner> hi, how can I get rid of this:run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/beagle-crawl-system exited with return code 1
[10:57] <Madpilot> ziroday, png should do preview & open thru nautilus; the only thing you might run into is large files - nautilus won't thumbnail anything over a certain MB limit
[10:58] <MrKeuner> it comes in my mailbox everyday, wht is the problem there?
[10:58] <ziroday> Madpilot: made the limit max and tried with really small files no luck
[10:58] <gordonjcp> MrKeuner: fix beagle...
[10:58] <VoX> heh
[10:58] <ziroday> Madpilot: used to work then one day stopped
[10:59] <MrKeuner> gordonjcp: how can I do that?
[10:59] <klien1> jogja
[10:59] <gordonjcp> MrKeuner: have you tried googling the message that you're getting?
[10:59] <modconfig> ...okay, i finally figured it out....seems as if the regular gstreamer-ugly set was messing it up...
[10:59] <Madpilot> ziroday, odd - never had any problems with png previews here. The blunt-object way to fix that might be to delete your Nautilus prefs and let it reset to defaults - but that's ugly, might screw something else up, and might not fix things...
[10:59] <MrKeuner> gordonjcp: yes, it did not help
[11:00] <MrKeuner> gordonjcp: that bug there does not give a resolution
[11:00] <ziroday> Madpilot: already tried that too :)
[11:00] <gordonjcp> MrKeuner: oh, doesn't it?
[11:00] <ziroday> Madpilot: still no luck and reinstall libpng too
[11:00] <Madpilot> ziroday, filed a bug yet?
[11:00] <ziroday> Madpilot: thinkin of it
[11:00] <emman101> how can I share folder in a network?
[11:00] <emman101> using terminal?
[11:00] <gordonjcp> MrKeuner: it looks like it gives a fix to me...
[11:01] <ziroday> Madpilot: but its a pain cause i do alot of work with icons and most of them are .png and previewing them is really helpfull
[11:01] <ALL4N> I'm looking for a way to remove embedded newlines on a csv file here. The data has quotation marks when necessary. I tried finding them using /|".[^"] *\n.[^"] *"|    <-- the values are separated by '|'  not ','  but it does not work for intsances where the value encompasses more than one newline. Any suggestions?
[11:02] <magnetron> emman101: you could use Samba, or ftp
[11:02] <Madpilot> ziroday, yeah - Nautilus's preview (usually) rocks - it's one of the big things I miss when I'm forced to use Windows... file a bug - launchpad.net
[11:02] <emman101> is it a must?
[11:02] <MrKeuner> gordonjcp: sorry I missed that part.
[11:02] <magnethead> also, is there a way i could access ubuntu via the windows boot.ini file? I saw a topic on it that said to run grub install to a floppy, then convert the entire floppy over to a .lnx file..but i never got a grub prompt. For some reason the Dell BIOS is bent on only allowing boot to hard disk C
[11:02] <emman101> magnetron: is it a must?
[11:03] <emman101> magnetron: I wanna use the terminal
[11:03] <gordonjcp> MrKeuner: I have to say, I haven't run up against this problem, but if the fix given solves your problem it might be worth commenting on the bug
[11:03] <MrKeuner> gordonjcp: I'll see it tomorrow when it runs by itself
[11:03] <magnethead> i have to use the F12 key to override boot to secondary slave to try to go directly to the ubuntu drive
[11:04] <magnetron> emman101: bot ftp are method for sharing a file, and both of them can be done with a terminal
[11:04] <gordonjcp> MrKeuner: yes

[11:27] <Bassetts> Sepero, it crashes all the time
[11:27] <gdb> I don't know, I don't use rhythmbox.  But if you're seeing audio files with an spx extension, they're likely speex encoded.

[11:31] <th1> drogomir, my X command line is much different from yours. Mine is started by kdm.. is yours the same if you start it by kdm/gdm?
[11:32] <RAH66> I geuss the best way to get allong is to run both xp and ubuntu to learn?
[11:33] <th1> drogomir, mine is "/usr/bin/X -br -nolisten tcp :0 vt7 -auth /var/run/xauth/A:0-bu6f5P"
[11:33] <soundray> RAH66: in my opinion the best way is to erase Windows and dive into the Free Software world.
[11:33] <modconfig> i swear, i tell it to burn as mp3, and don't have any other formats active...yet it still burns as ogg.
[11:33] <jc-denton> hi all
[11:33] <Sepero> RAH66: You might be better off installing Gimp on XP, and using it for both.

[11:34] <Sepero> Bassetts: Make sure you have universe and multiverse repositories  enabled.
[11:34] <Bassetts> soundray, their site says "As of Feisty, Deluge is in Ubuntu's universe repository. DO NOT INSTALL THIS VERSION"
[11:34] <Bassetts> Sepero, i do
[11:35] <th1> RAH66, if you can use Gimp instead of photoshop it is easier for you. But it is possible to run the Adobe apps inside of Linux, see here: http://blog.publicidadpixelada.com/how-to-adobe-photoshop-cs2-on-ubuntu-10-steps/
[11:35] <RAH66> awesome
[11:35] <soundray> Bassetts: it was in edgy. It seems to have been removed. Not sure what happened there.
[11:35] <sahil> how do i get the trash bin on my desktop?
[11:36] <th1> RAH66, I have used both Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign on linux.
[11:36] <Sepero> Bassetts: Yeah, it doesn't show on my repos either. Perhaps the page is wrong.

[11:43] <Sepero> brando1: I think it's an option when you format a floppy disk? Be sure to test it out.
[11:43] <ziroday> soundray: i cannot preview and natilius does not recognize .png files
[11:43] <th1> drogomir, welcome :)
[11:43] <magnetron> kdeuser^: you could use the "file" tool to see what format that file is in
[11:44] <kdeuser^> .asf
[11:44] <ziroday> soundray: i have to open it with image viewer or gthumb
[11:44] <th1> kdeuser^, try opening it with mplayer

[11:47] <ziroday> soundray: yeah
[11:47] <cotyrothery> NForce3r: could it be because you are running ubuntu in vm that its not working
[11:47] <ziroday> soundray: and .png used to work to
[11:47] <norealgravity> how easy is easy ubuntu?
[11:47] <NForc3r> na im going to put it on my computer now
[11:48] <soundray> gnomefreak: thanks
[11:48] <NForc3r> i no VMware has different drivers and stuff
[11:48] <NForc3r> im just making sure ubuntu wont stuff me up like b4
[11:48] <NForc3r> lol
[11:48] <Itr0nic> what is a good music player that supports mp3s?
[11:48] <th1> nostferka, you need to find out what the commands are called. look in /usr/share/doc/prc-tools and make a list of the package files with dpkg -L prc-tools
[11:48] <eliran> hello
[11:48] <cotyrothery> NForc3r: Na you just need to have it fully installed im sure
[11:48] <emman101> magnetron:did you look at the code?
[11:48] <soundray> ziroday: does it log any error messages in ~/.xsession-errors?
[11:48] <NForc3r> yea
[11:48] <NForc3r> im sure aswell
[11:48] <ziroday> soundray: nope
[11:49] <th1> NForc3r, you can always boot from the Live CD and see if it works
[11:49] <NForc3r> oh yea
[11:49] <magnetron> emman101: [homes]  is there
[11:49] <th1> that way you can check out stuff before installing..
[11:49] <NForc3r> OMG i forgot!!!!
[11:49] <NForc3r> live cd
[11:49] <cotyrothery> YEA
[11:49] <NForc3r> lol
[11:49] <soundray> ziroday: when you deleted ~/.nautilus, was it running at the time?
[11:49] <eliran> ok
[11:49] <emman101> magnetron:huh?
[11:49] <RAH66> will I be able to upgrade my xp to ubuntu directly?
[11:50] <emman101> magnetron: what particular line?
[11:50] <neii> how to connect to netware server ???? pls advise
[11:50] <ziroday> soundray: yeah but i have since restarted
[11:50] <cotyrothery> NForc3r: go ahead and restart with ubuntu
[11:50] <NForc3r> im going to in a sec
[11:50] <th1> RAH66, you have to decide if you want to keep XP or just want to have Ubuntu but generally yes
[11:50] <magnetron> emman101: 214
[11:50] <ziroday> soundray: could that have been it?
[11:50] <NForc3r> does anyone else here notice that beryl's site is down?
[11:50] <th1> RAH66, if you keep XP as well you can still access your files and stuff from inside Ubuntu if that is what you mean
[11:50] <emman101> magnetron: ngek
[11:50] <anathematic> hi i've just slipped and disabled my desktop account to have root rights how do i fix it?
[11:50] <emman101> magnetron: sorry I must have included a space
[11:50] <soundray> ziroday: log out, start a failsafe session and delete .nautilus from there. Otherwise nautilus recreates the original when it exits (I believe)
[11:51] <th1> NForc3r, ask in #beryl
[11:51] <ziroday> soundray: kk thanks will try
[11:51] <RAH66> cool so will ubuntu be able to run allongside xp?
[11:51] <NForc3r> thanx
[11:51] <emman101> magnetron: so only the home line 214 or the rest of the group inside home?
[11:51] <neii> how to login to  netware server ???? pls advise
[11:51] <th1> RAH66, yes it will, but it needs a separate partition. but the installer can take care of that for you.
[11:51] <magnetron> emman101: yes, remove the ; in front of those lines
[11:52] <RAH66> yeah i understand that
[11:52] <cotyrothery> Not that i want windows but i tried to install it again just so i could take a look at it again and at the end of the install it went to create a user partion and said it could not create the partion! Could that be because linux was on my hard drive or something
[11:52] <th1> if you want to run ubuntu at the *same time* as XP thne you need to install it inside a Virtual Machine.. see http://haacked.com/archive/2007/05/06/installing-ubuntu-on-virtual-pc-for-windows-lovers.aspx
[11:53] <RAH66> kk i'll check it out but performance wise I dont rate this is the best option
[11:53] <th1> RAH66, it's not but it is great if you just want to try ubuntu without changing your setup :)
[11:53] <GeekMaster1> OK, I have given up on installing VMWare. I JUST CAN'T. I was wondering i fyou guys could help me with ONE other thing. I went into my /usr/share/pixmaps/ folder and I manually replaced a all my icons accidently with a bunch of LARGER icons. Now no matter what icon package I install I get those big icons. Is there ANY way to get my default Ubuntu icons back in /usr/share/pixmaps?
[11:53] <modconfig> okay, now using grip instead....works like a charm.
[11:53] <emman101> magnetron: nah , same error.. The folder content could not be displayed
[11:54] <magnetron> emman101: you need to restart samba
[11:54] <Frogzoo> GeekMaster1: much easier to d/l from vmware's site - that works painlessly
[11:54] <RAH66> lol yeah but I wana start using ubuntu to its full potential
[11:54] <Sh3r1ff> GeekMaster1: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-vmware-server-from-canonical-commercial-repository-in-ubuntu-feisty.html
[11:54] <GeekMaster1> I will try that
[11:54] <hugolp> hi
[11:54] <th1> GeekMaster1, did you replace ALL of the icons?
[11:54] <emman101> magnetron:how? can I do that without using webmin?
[11:54] <GeekMaster1> ALL
[11:54] <GeekMaster1> Yes
[11:55] <hugolp> anyone knows how to do a right click menu in the gnome background to get a menu like enlightment?
[11:55] <th1> GeekMaster1, well that sort of sucks because they are all in separate packages
[11:55] <magnetron> emman101: i will not answer any questions about webmin
[11:55] <GeekMaster1> How do you guys higlight someone's name like that to talk to them directly BTW?
[11:55] <cotyrothery> Put in there game GeekMaster1
[11:55] <Sh3r1ff> GeekMaster1: just type there name ;)
[11:55] <GeekMaster1> So there is NO way to get the icons back?
[11:55] <modconfig> GeekMaster1, by putting their name in the writing
[11:55] <cotyrothery> name
[11:56] <Frogzoo> GeekMaster1: only be reinstalling every relevant package
[11:56] <magnetron> emman101: sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[11:56] <emman101> magnetron: ok then, how to reststart samba using a terminal?
[11:56] <emman101> ok
[11:56] <Zorlin> Anyone need help?
[11:56] <cotyrothery> gordonjcp: lol
[11:56] <th1> GeekMaster1, you can do it like this:
[11:56] <gordonjcp> GeekMaster1: tell you what you could do
[11:56] <th1> it is a bit tricky
[11:56] <cotyrothery> Zorlin: yea me
[11:57] <Sh3r1ff> emman101: /etc/init.d/samba restart
[11:57] <soundray> GeekMaster1: you could probably copy some of the pixmaps from a running live CD
[11:57] <gordonjcp> hang on, let's see what th1 suggests
[11:57] <gordonjcp> soundray: good call
[11:57] <GeekMaster1> Ahhhhhhhh
[11:57] <GeekMaster1> Good idea
[11:57] <Zorlin> cotyrothery: What can I do for ya
[11:57] <gordonjcp> soundray: actually you could just mount the CD and copy them across
[11:57] <GeekMaster1> I'll do that
[11:57] <GeekMaster1> Copy them from the live CD
[11:57] <gordonjcp> I have deja-vu
[11:57] <th1> GeekMaster1, its two commands
[11:57] <soundray> gordonjcp: could you? I haven't checked.
[11:57] <th1> GeekMaster1, that is not a good solution
[11:57] <GeekMaster1> th1 ok
[11:57] <gordonjcp> soundray: yeah, there's nothing "magic" about the livecd
[11:57] <th1> GeekMaster1, gimme a sec I can't paste into this window ;)
[11:58] <Itr0nic> anyone no a good mp3 player for ubuntu?
[11:58] <GeekMaster1> What shoulk dI do in your opinion TH1?
[11:58] <Sh3r1ff> Itr0nic: rhythmbox is standard in the install
[11:58] <soundray> !player | Itr0nic
[11:58] <ubotu> Itr0nic: Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Audacious, Banshee, Beep Media Player, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, XMMS (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based).  Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine  -  See also !codecs
[11:58] <gordonjcp> soundray: it will just appear as a mounted CD, so you'd find them in /media/cdrom/usr/share/pixmaps (or similar)
[11:58] <cotyrothery> Zorlin: well i wanted to try and reinstall windows for a little while and when i got to the end of the reinstall it tried to creat a user partion but faild to do so could that be because i had linux on my hard drives
[11:59] <gordonjcp> GeekMaster1: you could use a for loop and convert to scale the images back down ;-)
[11:59] <Itr0nic> ty
[11:59] <modconfig> cotyrothery, no..sounds like a bad cd
[11:59] <GeekMaster1> gordonjcp that would require me knowing EVERY icon that is scalled
[11:59] <cotyrothery> its a recovery cd
[11:59] <guillem101> How can I change the default keyboard layout?
[11:59] <soundray> GeekMaster1: unless you knew how to use find
[11:59] <Sh3r1ff> guillem101: preferences, keyboard
[11:59] <gordonjcp> GeekMaster1: no
[11:59] <gordonjcp> GeekMaster1: hence why I said "for loop"
[11:59] <th1> GeekMaster1, ok here: http://pastebin.ca/573878
[12:00] <magnetron> guillem101: System > preferences >keyboard
[12:00] <GeekMaster1> One second. I'm gonna pull up that link
[12:00] <GeekMaster1> Thanks guys
[12:00] <GeekMaster1> BRB
[12:00] <guillem101> Sh3r1ff, magnetron, OK, but I mean the way that the installer does at the very beginning (all users, console, etc)
[12:00] <modconfig> cotyrothery, well, you still shouldn't have probs with it b/c another os was on the disk
[12:00] <soundray> th1: I like your solution
[12:00] <gordonjcp> GeekMaster1: if you made a copy of the pixmaps directory, you could do something like "for i in *; do convert $i -resize 16x16 out/$i; done;
[12:01] <th1> thanks soundray :)
[12:01] <Didaskal0s> It would be kewl if everyone in this channel entered in a message at the same time
[12:01] <Didaskal0s> like three line message, all at the same time, that'd be sweet
[12:01] <gordonjcp> it would be cool if everyone in this channel stabbed people who say "kewl" in the eye at the same time
[12:01] <modconfig> haha
[12:01] <Sergo> hello, anyone know how to add an command line option to an "Make Link"
[12:01] <Didaskal0s> I've been saying kewl since I was 13, I aint gonna stop now
[12:02] <xenex> lol.
[12:02] <Sergo> i want to lunch hl.exe with follow option -nomaster -game cstrike but i don't know how..
[12:02] <soundray> gordonjcp: while they're at it, they should do the same to people who say 'lol' ;)
[12:02] <gordonjcp> Didaskal0s: and you're what, 14 now?
[12:02] <GeekMaster1> th1 did you get my PM?

[12:02] <Didaskal0s> yeah gordon, 14, actually 21, married, and have my own place.
[12:02] <Didaskal0s> *shakes head*
[12:02] <th1> GeekMaster1, btw my command only does it for png icons.. you can also do it for xpm icons etc. whatever you destroyed :)
[12:02] <Didaskal0s> oh, and shitty car.
[12:02] <GeekMaster1> I'm getting "dpkg: /usr/share/pixmaps/palm-pilot.png not found.
[12:02] <GeekMaster1> " everywhere with the command that you gave me
[12:03] <emman101> magnetron:hey I could display my work group anymore after restarting samba.. this is worst nnow
[12:03] <soundray> Didaskal0s: wow, how did you manage to keep your youthful naivety?
[12:03] <gordonjcp> Didaskal0s: and you still say things like "kewl"?
[12:03] <th1> GeekMaster1, that is just those that it can't find a package for
[12:03] <GeekMaster1> th1 It seems NONE of the icons were found
[12:03] <Didaskal0s> yeah, I say kewl....is that a problem?
[12:03] <th1> GeekMaster1, so the "replace-packages" file is empty?
[12:03] <zerro> hi is there some one that will help med with a littel networking problem ??
[12:03] <gordonjcp> Didaskal0s: only if you want to be taken seriously
[12:03] <GeekMaster1> th1 I don't know
[12:03] <Didaskal0s> And why do you care what I say, got anything better to do than pick a part my spelling of a single word.
[12:03] <th1> have a look
[12:03] <Sepero> GeekMaster1: PM me and I can help you out. You have a lot of problems.
[12:04] <gordonjcp> Didaskal0s: if you're not fussed about that, then go right ahead
[12:04] <gnomefreak> Didaskal0s: and gordonjcp if you would like to continue with this topic join #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:04] <gnomefreak> oh and hte bickering needs to stop
[12:04] <emman101> magnetron: don't know what to do anymore
[12:04] <emman101> magnetron: it freak out my server
[12:04] <Didaskal0s> ...yeah that's what I want to do, continue conversation about my long time use of the word kewl.
[12:04] <GeekMaster1> th1 I just PMd you
[12:04] <GeekMaster1> oops
[12:05] <th1> GeekMaster1, I didn't see any PM
[12:05] <emman101> magnetron: I guess this is something to do with [home] 
[12:05] <magnetron> emman101: in that case, comment the lines again
[12:05] <Sergo> guillem101: i don't know... i want to add an option "-nomaster -game cstrike" to an shortcut but don't know how
[12:05] <GeekMaster1> Supero I didnt see that it was you that said to PM you
[12:05] <GeekMaster1> Supero I just did
[12:05] <RAH66> yay 1 more hour then me have ubuntu
[12:06] <emman101> magnetron: waaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[12:06] <Vall-k> hi! I need help please... How i can send a value from HTML Form only with a <select>???
[12:06] <Sergo> in windows i could add this option near the name of shorcut in proprietes..
[12:06] <magnetron> emman101: i have to go now
[12:06] <beasty_> hi
[12:06] <emman101> magnetron: what about my network?
[12:06] <th1> GeekMaster1, I still suggest you use my commands that I pasted, run it once for png and once for xpm if you replaced them all, and hten it should have fixed most of them
[12:06] <beasty_> can someone tell me the diff between ubuntu-server and regular ubuntu ?
[12:06] <th1> if there are still some left then it is because they are not in any package.
[12:06] <magnetron> emman101: comment the lines again, add the ; in front of those lines and restart samba
[12:07] <HairyDude> trying to upgrade from hoary to dapper... can anyone point me towards a breezy repo?
[12:07] <soundray> !server > beasty_, please read the private message from ubotu
[12:07] <magnetron> emman101: i see you added a lot of other to your smb.conf, maybe that is the problem?
[12:07] <th1> and GeekMaster1 it is safest to only run scripts and commands that people paste to you in public, especially if you don't know exactly what they do.
[12:07] <soundray> HairyDude: those are closed now. It's better to backup and do a fresh install.
[12:08] <GeekMaster1> th1 this is what I got with you command
[12:08] <GeekMaster1> http://www.geekdum.com/forums/gallery/data/501/Screenshot.png
[12:08] <GeekMaster1> Please see the screenshot
[12:08] <beasty_> thx soundray :)
[12:08] <th1> GeekMaster1, you may get a lot of errors from the first command but that doesn't matter
[12:08] <GeekMaster1> th1 http://www.geekdum.com/forums/gallery/data/501/Screenshot.png
[12:08] <emman101> magnetron: maybe.. heheh.. is it illegal?
[12:08] <guillem101> Sergo, that is not a link in the Unix sense :-P Use the last tab at the properties of the icon.
[12:08] <th1> GeekMaster1, that's ok
[12:08] <th1> it just means it couldn't find packages for those icons
[12:08] <RAH66> will feisty partition my hard drives without messing up windows?
[12:09] <th1> GeekMaster1, when you run the second command it will replace those that it could find packages for
[12:09] <th1> try it and see what happens
[12:09] <GeekMaster1> OK
[12:09] <th1> ah GeekMaster1
[12:09] <GeekMaster1> Thanks so much
[12:09] <th1> you have to be root also
[12:09] <soundray> RAH66: yes, it's quite good at that. You should still have a backup in case of power failures and the like.
[12:09] <GeekMaster1> I'm gonna try that
[12:09] <sahil> how can i navigate to my home folder in the terminal?
[12:09] <th1> so do "sudo -s" before running the second command
[12:09] <soundray> sahil: with 'cd'
[12:09] <sahil> soundray but to the home folder
[12:10] <RAH66> cool 40 minutes then my ubuntu journey starts hehehehe
[12:10] <sahil> cd /home?
[12:10] <gnomefreak> soundray: you should be there by default
[12:10] <soundray> sahil: that will take you to your home folder
[12:10] <gnomefreak> sahil: or just type cd
[12:10] <soundray> sahil: no, that's one above your home folder
[12:10] <gnomefreak> sahil: name@pcname$ is your home dir
[12:10] <RAH66> it supports raid?
[12:10] <sahil> hmmm
[12:11] <wols> RAH66: ise software raid
[12:11] <th1> GeekMaster1, you got that part? do "sudo -s" before you run the commands. the prompt should end with a "#" instead of a "$"
[12:11] <sahil> gnomefreak, what i am trying to do is change the ubuntu logo in the menu bar to a apple
[12:11] <th1> then when you are done type exit
[12:11] <RAH66> ???? huh?
[12:11] <Sepero> RAH66: Go put in the LiveCD already.
[12:11] <RAH66> <<<<<sorry ubuntu noob
[12:11] <Itr0nic> <<<< me too
[12:11] <th1> RAH66, depends on the type of raid but most likely yes!
[12:11] <RAH66> Im downloading the installer what what...
[12:11] <th1> just be careful when you format it
[12:12] <th1> that you don't repartition the real drive but the raid array
[12:12] <sahil> gnomefreak any idea on how to do that
[12:12] <RAH66> wow what?
[12:12] <GeekMaster1> th1 http://pastebin.ca/573886
[12:12] <th1> RAH66, what kind of raid do you have?
[12:12] <Itr0nic> i installed ubuntu on wrong drive and it deleted 5000 mp3s and about 40 movies :(
[12:12] <RAH66> um um
[12:12] <RAH66> lol
[12:12] <RAH66> ??
[12:12] <GeekMaster1> th1 second command gave me an error
[12:12] <RAH66> name a few?
[12:13] <th1> GeekMaster1, you can't just put "sudo" in front, since it is a combined command. just run "sudo -s" on its own before doing the command
[12:13] <th1> or you can put "sudo" just in front of "apt-get"
[12:13] <gnomefreak> sahil: i used to know but you pretty much want to replace /usr/share/pixmaps/nameoficon with /usr/share/pixmaps/nameoldiconwithnewname
[12:13] <th1> since thats the only part that really needs sudo
[12:14] <guillem101> Sh3r1ff, magnetron, nm, I can manage with the way you point :-)
[12:14] <sahil> gnomefreak, i tried that with this sudo cp apple.png /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/distributor-logo.png
[12:14] <sahil> but no luck
[12:14] <th1> GeekMaster1, like this:  http://pastebin.ca/573894
[12:14] <gnomefreak> sahil: should have worked
[12:15] <modconfig> gnomefreak, did you log out and back in?
[12:15] <RAH66> 32_STOR_5.5.0.1035_PV <<<<<<<< well this is the driver I use for my raid any clues?
[12:15] <Zenton> hi all
[12:15] <gnomefreak> modconfig: when?
[12:15] <sahil> gnomefreak, do you know how to get the trash bin on the desktop?
[12:15] <Zenton> how compatible are debian and ubuntu repositories?
[12:15] <modconfig> gnomefreak, woops, meant for sahil
[12:15] <gnomefreak> sahil: drag and drop it should work
[12:16] <sahil> modconfig what was for me
[12:16] <sahil> gnomefreak, no that has no luck
[12:16] <gnomefreak> sahil: restart
[12:16] <modconfig> sahil, asking if you logged out and back in to see if it changed.
[12:16] <gnomefreak> sahil: better yet killall gnome-panel
[12:17] <Sepero> Zenton: Not compatible in many places.
[12:17] <gnomefreak> sahil: it restarts your gnome panels
[12:17] <GeekMaster1> th1 is it running ok? http://pastebin.ca/573922
[12:17] <RAH66> so how would I partition my drives to not loose any data?
[12:17] <soundray> sahil: what was wrong with my earlier suggestion about trash?
[12:18] <sahil> soundray, it didnt show the icon
[12:18] <Zenton> Sepero: at least main in ubuntu is more compatible with unstable debian or testing?
[12:18] <sahil> it was only a folder
[12:18] <usr_rob> strange, i compiled pam 0.0.8 and edited gdm so that nm-applet will stop asking for the pass. rebooted, seems to work fine, but the network-manager has been removed from the gnome panel, how can i get it back?
[12:18] <nox-Hand> Morning OMKers!
[12:18] <sahil> gnomefreak, restarting panels didnt help
[12:18] <soundray> sahil: so right click it, go to Properties and select a custom icon
[12:18] <Bassetts> how long does the verification email for the pgp keys normally take?
[12:18] <usr_rob> i still get a notification about the the wlan connection is established
[12:18] <gnomefreak> sahil: when you tried command did it output anything?
[12:19] <sahil> gnomefreak, my panels flashed
[12:19] <gnomefreak> Bassetts: not long
[12:19] <th1> GeekMaster1, yes it is reinstalling those packages :) so it should be ok
[12:19] <th1> just afterwards make sure you do the same for xpm icons
[12:19] <Bassetts> gnomefreak, thanks, seems to be taking a while
[12:19] <sahil> soundray, i tried that but it did not update the icon when the trash was full/empty
[12:19] <GeekMaster1> th1 thank you so much
[12:19] <sahil> it was a static icon
[12:19] <OuZo> !java
[12:19] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[12:19] <Sepero> Zenton: Debian unstable and testing are so close together, it really doesn't make much difference.
[12:19] <th1> you're welcome GeekMaster1 :)
[12:20] <Zenton> Sepero: well I mean can I at least mix debian unstable with ubuntu's main?
[12:20] <RichW> Master of geeks.
[12:20] <gnomefreak> Zenton: not supported and a bad idea
[12:20] <Zenton> thanks Sepero  and gnomefreak.
[12:20] <gnomefreak> Zenton: debian and ubuntu binaries are not compatible
[12:20] <Zenton> I see
[12:20] <Sepero> Zenton: I wouldn't recommend it unless you did some homework on repository pinning.
[12:21] <sahil> gnomefreak, dragging only work within the panel itself
[12:22] <Bassetts> gnomefreak, if i dont get the email should i cancel verification and readd the key?
[12:22] <sahil> not from panel to desktop
[12:22] <gnomefreak> Bassetts: kill it and retry
[12:22] <dvm> how to catch usb interrupt using d-bus and hal in  my 'c' code?
[12:22] <Sepero> Anyone here use an Intel536ep modem?
[12:22] <GeekMaster1> th1 is there like a yes to all command I can use instead of waiting for the terminal to ask me for permission, then typing "y"?
[12:23] <th1> GeekMaster1 you can append -y to apt-get
[12:23] <th1> what is it asking about?
[12:24] <Sepero> GeekMaster1: apt-get install $package -y
[12:24] <GeekMaster1> th1 so next time it asks me for y or n just type append -y to apt-get?
[12:24] <magnetron> GeekMaster1: there is a yes command that emits ys
[12:24] <th1> GeekMaster1, no
[12:24] <Bassetts> gnomefreak, thanks, got it now
[12:24] <th1> GeekMaster1, not while the script is running
[12:24] <th1> you have to stop it with ctrl-c and then change it
[12:25] <GeekMaster1> Just finished anyway
[12:25] <Bassetts> FireGPG is damn useful
[12:25] <GeekMaster1> I guess I have to reboot to see the changes? I'm sure you guys know I'm a newb to Liinux by now. I've been using it for 3 days
[12:25] <Sepero> GeekMaster1: Try logging out, then login
[12:26] <th1> so it becomes like Sepero said or here: http://pastebin.ca/573929
[12:26] <GeekMaster1> Sepero ok
[12:26] <GeekMaster1> BRB
[12:26] <arpegius> when i try to restart proftpd i get this message. what does it mean? ProFTPd is started from inetd.
[12:26] <SlimeyPete> GeekMaster1: you don't generally have to reboot with Linux (unless you make changes to the core system e.g. the kernel). Logging out and back in again usually suffices.
[12:26] <th1> arpegius, it means it is started automatically when someone connects to it
[12:26] <th1> arpegius, so there is no "restarting " it..
[12:27] <RichW> What do you guys use to encode a video for the PSP?
[12:27] <arpegius> gotcha thanks.
[12:27] <robinho> usb hub can't use in ubuntu?
[12:27] <th1> robinho, that should be absolutely fine
[12:28] <firedrops> RichW, go to http://www.kde-apps.org
[12:28] <firedrops> and search for an app
[12:28] <firedrops> to do that
[12:28] <firedrops> there's one, i've seen it
[12:28] <Sepero> RichW: I've never encoded a video for PSP before...
[12:29] <Sepero> PSP video = PlayStationPocket or PhotoShoP?
[12:29] <nimbo> hi, my wifi-card doesn't work on feisty anymore. what happened to the prism54 module/driver?
[12:29] <|malajenho|> hi
[12:29] <mattl> Sepero: I don't think Photoshop does video.
[12:30] <sek> guys.. whats the best way to search newsgroups?
[12:30] <th1> Sepero, PSP is usually short for PlayStation Portable or PaintShop Pro, I have never heard it mean Photoshop :)

[12:37] <Sepero> GeekMaster1: I'm not really sure. That is something i think you did with th1 in private msgs.
[12:38] <magnetron> Itr0nic: this is what you should do: hold the Alt key when dragging the folder to the desktop, then choose "link here"
[12:38] <GeekMaster1> th1 how do I get to the contents of my replace file?
[12:39] <GeekMaster1> Sepero do you have another suggestion for me to replace these icons? They are VERY big.

[12:42] <Surkow> Hello...My internet keeps going on and off...there is no logic in it. I have an ethernet chip from nvidia (ck804) and an ethernet chip from Marvell.
[12:42] <Surkow> both are wired connections
[12:42] <Surkow> when I boot ubuntu
[12:42] <nimbo> hi, my wifi-card doesn't work on feisty anymore. what happened to the prism54 module/driver?
[12:43] <Surkow> I can't connect with one ethernet port...and I have to manually switch the cable to the other
[12:43] <m1r> surkow , pastebin ifconfig
[12:43] <Surkow> ok
[12:43] <m1r> nimbo , sec
[12:45] <Surkow> @mlr - http://pastebin.com/931254
[12:46] <Surkow> no errors atm...but I will reboot and show what it says when it does not connect again. If that happens I need to choose the other connection to make it work again (I suspect a bug in network manager or my router/switch has problems releasing the ip)
[12:46] <m1r> nimbo , did u use original drivers or ndiswrapper
[12:46] <nimbo> m1r: none of them
[12:46] <nimbo> i don't get my card running on feisty
[12:46] <m1r> wait please
[12:46] <m1r> surkow
[12:46] <m1r> sec
[12:47] <nimbo> it also just works on kernel 2.6.17-10, 2.6.17-11 doesn't recognize my card also and above

[12:48] <Surkow> I just tested it again mlr
[12:49] <Surkow> ipconfig now says something else
[12:49] <Surkow> (I just connected my other ethernet connection and it failed to get an ip)

[12:58] <cotyrothery> hey can someone help me with getting an iso image burned correctly
[12:59] <Dark_Angel_n00b> ok how would I edit the host file on ubuntu 7.04
[12:59] <nimbo> m1r: i'm going to recompile the kernel and see where the problem resides
[12:59] <wols> cotyrothery: use gnomebaker or k3b
[12:59] <cotyrothery> i have
[12:59] <wols> Darkwingshadow: editor /etc/hosts
[12:59] <Dark_Angel_n00b> currently on M$ i have edited the host file to allow me to use a domain instead of the ip to contact the server.
[12:59] <cotyrothery> I have burned dsl to give it a try and it never burns right maybe it is my settings
[12:59] <Darkwingshadow> Im having problem running Linux on a Toshiba computer?
[12:59] <cotyrothery> Dsl is live cd also
[01:00] <jatt> Darkwingshadow: are you?
[01:00] <Frogzoo> cotyrothery: burn @ 1/2 speed - but check the iso md5sum before
[01:00] <Darkwingshadow> ye
[01:00] <Darkwingshadow> ye
[01:00] <Darkwingshadow> yes
[01:00] <wols> cotyrothery: you still haven't told us what the error is. will you ever?
[01:00] <cotyrothery> Frogzoo: could you guide me as i go
[01:00] <wols> Darkwingshadow: that's fine. kepp on truckin'
[01:00] <cotyrothery> wols: there is no error
[01:00] <wols> cotyrothery: I don't believe you
[01:00] <Darkwingshadow> yes
[01:00] <Dark_Angel_n00b> when you say editor do you mean text editor ?
[01:01] <cotyrothery> wols: it finishes the burning
[01:01] <wols> however if you are right and there is no error then the CD will be fine. have fun with DSL
[01:01] <Dark_Angel_n00b> I have brwosed to etc/host but it wouldnt let me save
[01:01] <cotyrothery> it just when i insert the cd nothing happens
[01:01] <cotyrothery> its just a no good cd after i burn it
[01:01] <wols> Darkwingshadow: no I mean the commmand "editor"
[01:02] <wols> cotyrothery: you still haven't learnt to do a proper problem description have you? do you think we are psychic so we know what's wrong with the CD?
[01:02] <wols> what is on the CD?
[01:02] <cotyrothery> wols: i really dont know how to explain something like this
[01:02] <Dark_Angel_n00b> wols: right so via cmd. What are the commands to edit the hosts file then, sorry but I am a complete n00b to linux, it like to make a good go of it though
[01:02] <cotyrothery> wols: it is dsl
[01:02] <wols> Dark_Angel_n00b: I already told you
[01:02] <AzMoo> Dark_Angel_n00b, gksudo "gedit /etc/hosts"
[01:03] <wols> cotyrothery: no it is not DSL. if it were it would boot. it doesn't boot so something is wrong with it, hence: no DSL
[01:03] <cotyrothery> wols: it has done this with ubuntu also
[01:03] <oOpusOoperandi> i am trying to install vmware
[01:03] <oOpusOoperandi> and I get this error
[01:03] <wols> oops. Darkwingshadow instead
[01:03] <oOpusOoperandi> sudo: vmware-install.pl: command not found
[01:03] <cotyrothery> wols: it is the way im burning i think
[01:03] <wols> Dark_Angel_n00b: not you
[01:03] <wols> cotyrothery: I asked you question. what is on the cd. what files?
[01:03] <wols> !vmware
[01:03] <cotyrothery> The dsl image
[01:04] <cotyrothery> it is 50 mb

[01:05] <m1r> with what application ?
[01:06] <oOpusOoperandi> wols: vmware isn't a deb
[01:06] <oOpusOoperandi> is not even in the repositories
[01:06] <cotyrothery> m1r: the app that comes with ubuntu
[01:06] <wols> oOpusOoperandi: I know. and that's why you are not supposed to install it. simple, eh?
[01:06] <AzMoo> oOpusOoperandi, Yes it is, it's in multiverse.
[01:06] <cotyrothery> m1r: it has no name
[01:06] <oOpusOoperandi> AzMoo: Workstation?
[01:06] <wols> AzMoo: vmware-player != vmware
[01:06] <cotyrothery> just cd/dvd creater
[01:06] <m1r> right click on image icon and select burn image
[01:06] <oOpusOoperandi> oh well
[01:06] <cotyrothery> m1r: ok one sec
[01:07] <oOpusOoperandi> I wanna install workstation
[01:07] <AzMoo> Oh, my bad.
[01:07] <cotyrothery> m1r: ok then what do i do
[01:07] <m1r> burn image
[01:07] <cotyrothery> m1r: what settings should i use
[01:07] <m1r> default
[01:07] <haggis> if a partition fails to mount (ie. encrypted and password not given) ubuntu goes into maintenance mode, what can i do to stop this?
[01:07] <cotyrothery> m1r: i have
[01:07] <m1r> this not rocket sience m8
[01:07] <cotyrothery> i know
[01:07] <m1r> ust press next > next
[01:08] <cotyrothery> thats why i have no idea how to explain
[01:08] <m1r> data cd of course
[01:08] <wols> haggis: which partition? where is it mounted when it mounts?
[01:08] <cotyrothery> m1r: it has two settings
[01:08] <cotyrothery> it says
[01:08] <Darkwingshadow> can anyone help me?
[01:08] <Dark_Angel_n00b> wols: gedit /etc/hosts opens the file up in text editor and defines the file as read only. But admited I did launch this from terminal
[01:08] <haggis> wols, my home directory
[01:08] <cotyrothery> write to disc cdd5501
[01:08] <cotyrothery> or
[01:08] <haggis> wols, /chome
[01:08] <cotyrothery> write to disc image file
[01:08] <m1r> cdd5501
[01:08] <AzMoo> Dark_Angel_n00b, gksudo "gedit /etc/hosts"
[01:08] <wols> Dark_Angel_n00b: you need to be root. use sudo/gksudo
[01:09] <AzMoo> Dark_Angel_n00b, that will open it as root
[01:09] <m1r> not image file
[01:09] <Dark_Angel_n00b> from terminal right ?
[01:09] <Dark_Angel_n00b> right
[01:09] <Dark_Angel_n00b> so I need to install this first
[01:09] <Dark_Angel_n00b> gotcha now
[01:09] <AzMoo> Dark_Angel_n00b, no.
[01:09] <cotyrothery> m1r: i have not selected image file as my burning setting
[01:09] <AzMoo> Dark_Angel_n00b, gksudo is installed.
[01:09] <cotyrothery> m1r: i have tried the other
[01:09] <cotyrothery> m1r: it just leaves my disc useless
[01:09] <Surkow> mlr - I reset my router and it seemed a router problem
[01:10] <wols> haggis: shouldn't be essential to force maintenance mode. which script is mounting it?
[01:10] <Surkow> I will restart a couple of times to see if it really was the router
[01:10] <m1r> then it seems your cdd is broken
[01:10] <m1r> does if wotk under other OS ?
[01:10] <Surkow> my ethernet?
[01:10] <cotyrothery> my burner works
[01:10] <Surkow> brb gotta reboot
[01:10] <m1r> ah surkow
[01:10] <ubuntu__> yo yo yo
[01:10] <oOpusOoperandi> guys I  wanna mount a partition that has my multimedia, my pictures my videos music etc, where am I  supposed  to mount it?
[01:10] <m1r> so wrong router setting ?
[01:10] <ubuntu__> whaz upp?
[01:11] <oOpusOoperandi> in /media/foo or in /mnt/foo?
[01:11] <Surkow> I hope it was just my router mlr ;D
[01:11] <m1r> cotyrothery
[01:11] <AzMoo> oOpusOoperandi, /media/foo is the standard in ubuntu.
[01:11] <cotyrothery> m1r: should i try a diffrent burning programe
[01:11] <m1r> tryed other , yes ?
[01:11] <Darkwingshadow> does anyone know my problem?
[01:11] <cotyrothery> ok
[01:11] <m1r> try kburn ?
[01:11] <Darkwingshadow> personal im me
[01:11] <haggis> wols, I -think- it's checkfs - I also see the unusual error 'apt-get is not installed; use apt-get install apt to install it' just before it goes into maintenance mode
[01:12] <AzMoo> haggis, seriously? lol
[01:12] <wols> apt-get is not installed? you sure you run ubuntu?
[01:12] <Dark_Angel_n00b> wols: sorted, got there in the end
[01:12] <Dark_Angel_n00b> thanks bud
[01:12] <haggis> apt-get %Bis%B installed though, yes I'm using ubuntu
[01:12] <cotyrothery> m1r: how about k3b
[01:12] <oOpusOoperandi> AzMoo: ok thanks
[01:12] <Sepero> Anyone here use an Intel536ep modem?
[01:12] <mrcreativity> i need to install an older version of nvidia drivers...can someone help me?
[01:12] <m1r> anything that can burn cotyrothery
[01:12] <haggis> if i exit maintenance mode it continues as normal
[01:12] <m1r> just to test
[01:12] <wols> !anyone | Sepero
[01:12] <ubotu> Sepero: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[01:13] <oOpusOoperandi> AzMoo: I presume I would need add it  in fstab as well
[01:13] <Darkwingshadow> Im getting an error with Gnome it says it cannot start up?
[01:13] <oOpusOoperandi> y
[01:13] <AzMoo> oOpusOoperandi, if you want it to mount automatically then you will have to.
[01:13] <oOpusOoperandi> lol
[01:13] <Sepero> wols: I need a copy of the module for that modem. That is all.
[01:14] <Darkwingshadow> Im getting an error with Gnome it says it cannot start up?
[01:14] <Dark_Angel_n00b> another question I have is, the server is a print server running on the dreaded M$ os and is set up to be a print server. How would I be able to link ubuntu up to use the print server in order to print please
[01:14] <AzMoo> Darkwingshadow, what's the error?
[01:15] <wols> Sepero: http://www.linmodems.org/
[01:15] <oOpusOoperandi> n
[01:15] <AzMoo> Darkwingshadow, please don't pm me.
[01:15] <AzMoo> Darkwingshadow, talk in here.
[01:16] <Sepero> wols: No thanks. That site isn't going to help me.
[01:16] <wols> Sepero: why not?
[01:17] <cotyrothery> mr1: man i messed up my last cd
[01:17] <wols> Sepero: it has a link to the drive you need
[01:17] <Sepero> wols: Because I need the driver precompiled for a kernel that I'm not using.
[01:17] <Surkow> I'm back and my problem is not solved yet. I thought it was my router...but now I get more and more errors with ipconfig. http://pastebin.com/931259
[01:17] <wols> cotyrothery: will you now answer my question?
[01:17] <cotyrothery> wols: um no
[01:17] <wols> Sepero: you can cimpile drivers for another kernel (as long as you have headers for the kernel)
[01:18] <wols> ok then
[01:18] <m1r> cotyrothery , did u try other burning application =?
[01:18] <Surkow> @mlr - http://pastebin.com/931259
[01:18] <cotyrothery> m1r: yea
[01:18] <cotyrothery> m1r: Maybe its the cd's
[01:18] <m1r> then i cant help further
[01:18] <Surkow> the connection died again mlr
[01:18] <m1r> surkow , min
[01:18] <Sepero> wols: Unfortunalely, with the 536, it will not compile unless you are actually using that kernel.
[01:18] <m89> hello
[01:19] <m1r> cotyrothery , cd,s or your cdr drive
[01:19] <wols> Sepero: no. as long as you hand it the proper files (headers mostly) it will compile
[01:19] <cotyrothery> m1r: the cd's
[01:19] <mrcreativity> i need to install older nvidia drivers, can someone help me please
[01:19] <wols> mrcreativity: ask your real question
[01:19] <Sepero> wols: I've tried it before. Trust me, it doesn't work.
[01:19] <cotyrothery> wols: the reason i cant anwser your question is because there is no anwer
[01:20] <wols> Surkow: paste your /etc/network/interfaces and the lsmod output right after boot
[01:20] <Darkwingshadow> okay
[01:20] <Surkow> ok
[01:20] <mrcreativity> i installed the latest drivers from the repositories, and they didnt work properly. i need to install an older version.
[01:20] <Surkow> gotta reboot then

[01:21] <Darkwingshadow> it cannot start up
[01:21] <wols> mrcreativity: the newest drivres will work for that card
[01:21] <Darkwingshadow> it said the themes and sound might not be

[01:29] <spifff> hi... i'm having problems getting the lcd of my dell inspiron 6400 to come back on after i close and re-open the lid. it works ok in "normal" mode, but when i have Xorg configured for dual head, only the external monitor comes back on
[01:29] <Surkow> I listed etc/network/interfaces and the lsmod output right after boot
[01:29] <Surkow> you can read it here
[01:29] <Surkow> http://pastebin.com/931264
[01:29] <m1r> surkow, did u set static IP ?
[01:29] <LinuX__> How to change language in Ubuntu with out reload the OS ?
[01:29] <Pici> !locale | LinuX__
[01:29] <Surkow> do I need to set it in my router or in ubuntu mlr?
[01:29] <spifff> i've had a look at the /etc/acpi/lid.sh script, but it quits right away when gnome-power-manager is running (which it is)... any hints how to fix this?
[01:29] <wols> Surkow: after this boot, did the nvidia one work (forcedeth is laoded)
[01:29] <ubotu> LinuX__: To set up and configure your locales, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LocaleConf
[01:30] <wols> also: which driver is the one for marvell?
[01:30] <Surkow> ehm
[01:30] <Surkow> what I just posted
[01:30] <Surkow> now is the marvell active
[01:30] <m1r> surkow
[01:30] <LinuX__> thanks
[01:30] <m1r> :)
[01:30] <sehute> I have used Debian and now Ubuntu for many years. I have searched the web for answers. How do I pair my mobile device over bluetooth? (for instance with bluez-pin?)
[01:30] <m1r> surkow, set one card static IP
[01:30] <m1r> and i recomend that one dont be marvel
[01:30] <wols> Surkow: what is your third ethernet card?
[01:30] <Surkow> It's really random...when I boot and marvel does not work I switch to nvidia. and if the marvel does not work only switching to nvidia works
[01:30] <Surkow> ehm
[01:30] <Surkow> no third
[01:31] <wols> Surkow: why is there an eth2 in your interfaces then?
[01:31] <wols> also: dmesg |grep eth
[01:31] <Surkow> I have no idea XD
[01:31] <m1r> wols, is a mess :)
[01:31] <wols> Surkow: you also have an atheros or similar madwifi card?
[01:31] <Surkow> mlr -  think it's a feature of my mobo
[01:31] <Surkow> no...
[01:31] <Surkow> that is the problem I think
[01:31] <m1r> just two cards wols
[01:31] <wols> Surkow: then why is there ath0 and wlan0?
[01:31] <Surkow> I don't have that type of mobo
[01:32] <Surkow> because asus also offers a wifi version of my mobo
[01:32] <Surkow> I think the chip is there
[01:32] <Surkow> on my mobo
[01:32] <m1r> it shouldnt be there in /etc/netwrok/interfaces
[01:32] <Surkow> so I don't have wifi...but it does see a chip with wifi
[01:32] <Surkow> I should remove it?
[01:32] <m1r> imho , only eth0 and eth1
[01:32] <Surkow> ok
[01:33] <wols> why do you think it sees a wlan chip? all there is, is a config in /etc/network/interfaces
[01:33] <bullgard4> What is meant with 'Mixer track' in Gnome main menu System > Preferences  >  Sound > General > 'Default Mixer Tracks'
[01:33] <m1r> and set nvidia card to be primary one with static ip m8
[01:33] <Surkow> @wols - network manager does not see the wifi part
[01:33] <Surkow> ok
[01:33] <Surkow> I will do
[01:33] <Surkow> or try to do it ;D
[01:33] <m1r> u dont have wifi :)
[01:33] <m1r> just mess in configs
[01:33] <wols> Surkow: you can check if there is wifi with lspci
[01:33] <Surkow> ok
[01:33] <wols> also: what did dmesg |grep eth say?
[01:34] <Surkow> I will post it @pastebin
[01:35] <Surkow> http://pastebin.com/931265
[01:35] <Surkow> lspci does not show any wifi chips
[01:36] <Surkow> what does ath mean?
[01:36] <tricky> does U7.04 support nvidia NF4 raid?
[01:36] <wols> ath0 is what certain wifi drives (madwifi) use for interface names
[01:36] <Surkow> ok
[01:37] <m1r> surkow, just remove all but eth0 , eth1
[01:37] <Surkow> I should comment all things besides
[01:37] <Surkow> auto lo
[01:37] <Surkow> iface lo inet loopback
[01:37] <Surkow> auto eth0
[01:37] <Surkow> iface eth0 inet dhcp
[01:37] <Surkow> auto eth1
[01:37] <Surkow> iface eth1 inet dhcp
[01:37] <Surkow> ok
[01:37] <wols> Surkow: yes
[01:37] <Surkow> done
[01:37] <Surkow> brb reboot
[01:37] <m1r> NO
[01:37] <wols> sudhanshu: no
[01:37] <wols> doh!
[01:37] <m1r> :)
[01:37] <wols> *sigh*
[01:37] <m1r> he is cool :)
[01:38] <m1r> reboot every time :)
[01:38] <wols> resbooting ater an interfaces change is NOT cool. it's idiotic
[01:38] <wols> ew need to tell him when he comes back
[01:38] <m1r> well he obviusly dont know :/
[01:38] <m1r> yes i will

[01:40] <_Titatovenaar_> What is the current kernel? 2.16.20-16?
[01:41] <wols> _Titatovenaar_: package.ubuntu.com knows
[01:41] <ugarit> I use feisty, gnome, and I got rid of the top panel and only use the bottom, now the little orange star indicating updates does not appear on the bottom panel as it used to on the top one.  How do I solve this?
[01:41] <Slart> how can I, without opening my case, check what kind of memory I've got in my box?
[01:41] <wols> Slart: dmidecode
[01:41] <Slart> wols: thanks
[01:41] <wols> Slart: also your chipset usually tells you what to buy
[01:41] <Surkow> wols, mlr - it seems to work
[01:42] <Surkow> I commented the other devices
[01:42] <Surkow> and after two reboots it still works :D
[01:42] <wols> Surkow: youa re not supposed to reboot evrytime
[01:42] <_Titatovenaar_> wols....?
[01:42] <wols> unless you do kernel changes or new hardware there is no reason to reboot
[01:42] <m1r> surkow
[01:42] <wols> _Titatovenaar_: I gave you an URL. look there
[01:42] <Surkow> @wols - I reboot because I also switch from windows to ubuntu
[01:42] <_Titatovenaar_> there is just a command right to check in terminal what current version is?
[01:42] <Surkow> to see if it causes problems
[01:42] <wols> Surkow: ubuntu has a tcpip stack and a irc client too
[01:42] <defrysk> uname -r
[01:42] <m1r> surkow , /etc/init.d/networking restart = restart network without reboot
[01:43] <wols> _Titatovenaar_: running kernel_ uname -a
[01:43] <wols> _Titatovenaar_: available kernels apt-cache search linux-image
[01:43] <tricky> is seems my nvidia NF4 raid 0 not recognized by U7.04, but it was working in older linux releases like SUSE 10.2... what i should do?
[01:43] <Surkow> @mlr - do you know the restart command for the gnome network manager?
[01:43] <m1r> just typed u above
[01:43] <Surkow> ok
[01:43] <wols> tricky: yous hould not use nvidia raid. it's fakeraid
[01:43] <cotyrothery> wols: is there away i can make it were my desktop icons and folders are smaller like the windows ones
[01:43] <m1r> surkow , /etc/init.d/networking restart = restart network without reboot
[01:43] <wols> cotyrothery: no clue
[01:43] <cotyrothery> wols: it seems like they take a lot of space
[01:44] <cotyrothery> on my screen
[01:44] <wols> cotyrothery: use a higher resolution :P
[01:44] <m1r> cotyrothery , right click on icon, RESIZE
[01:44] <cotyrothery> ok
[01:45] <cotyrothery> m1r: is there away i can have the small size as default
[01:46] <cotyrothery> for all icons for now on
[01:46] <m1r> coty, must be, but i dont know
[01:47] <ugarit> I use ubuntu feisty, gnome, and I got rid of the top panel and only use the bottom, now the little orange star indicating updates does not appear on the bottom panel as it used to on the top one.  How do I solve this?
[01:47] <Surkow> mlr, wols - http://pastebin.com/931269
[01:47] <Surkow> when I reset the connection
[01:47] <cotyrothery> darn
[01:47] <jrib> ugarit: add "notificat area" to your panedl
[01:47] <Surkow> it dies, and then resets itself after that it works again
[01:47] <eX|Joe> hey guys, could anyone tell me why my videos would be slugish?  I'm using a x850xt.
[01:47] <ugarit> jrib: thanks
[01:47] <m1r> so is workable surkow ?
[01:48] <Surkow> well yes...it works. But I reboot to check if it works on reboot. :P
[01:48] <Surkow> *if
[01:48] <m1r> no need reboot
[01:48] <Surkow> I know you don't have to reboot
[01:48] <m1r> that is windows style
[01:48] <m1r> :)
[01:48] <emman101> anybody knows about how fvwm95 manager work?
[01:48] <eX|Joe> I'm having really slow videos in Democracy Player, specifically Anime.  Does anyone know a solution for this?
[01:48] <m1r> surkow, if u can set static IP
[01:49] <Surkow> I can try that indeed...but I think I should remake my cat5 cables
[01:49] <Surkow> the connections are too fragile and the internet dies often because of that
[01:49] <emman101> anybody knows about how fvwm95 manager work?
[01:49] <wols> emman101: ask your ral question
[01:50] <Surkow> I think that is the reason for the connection errors...but windows does not seem to suffer from it
[01:50] <Surkow> brb
[01:51] <emman101> anybody knows how to minimize memory use in ubuntu?
[01:52] <defrysk> emman101, unused ram is wasted ram
[01:52] <preaction> emman101: what do you want to trade-off? do you want to use swap more?
[01:52] <DjViper> used ram (and cpu) is wasted heat and batteryjuice...
[01:53] <emman101> I use ubuntu 7.04 in a 256mb ram
[01:53] <DjViper> emman101: turn off beryl
[01:53] <emman101> and I want to use eclipse
[01:53] <defrysk> DjViper, unused ram makes your hd spin
[01:53] <emman101> beryl?
[01:53] <wers> in my openoffice writer, the icons on the toolbars were lost and were replaced by text, how do I put the icons back? :)
[01:53] <sahil> gnomefreak, i figured it out you need to open gconf-editor and then go to apps >>nautilus>>desktop>>make trashcan visible to get it on the desktop
[01:54] <emman101> DjViper: beryl what's that? how do I turn it off?
[01:54] <orbin> emman101: desktop eye candy.  it's not enabled by default
[01:54] <defrysk> sahil, you could also install gtweakui
[01:54] <patryk_> siema
[01:54] <orbin> emman101: try using a more lightweight desktop environment
[01:54] <emman101> defrysk: its not unuse its over use
[01:55] <defrysk> emman101, yes you have just a 256 megs
[01:55] <patryk_> is any Polish here?
[01:55] <CheshireViking> !pl | patryk_
[01:55] <ubotu> patryk_: Mozesz uzyskac pomoc w jezyku polskim na #ubuntu-pl
[01:55] <wols> !pl
[01:55] <patryk_> ok thx
[01:55] <emman101> yah but I want to use eclipse also.. and it run very slow
[01:56] <emman101> orbin: emman101: desktop eye candy.  it's not enabled by default,,,, what is this program about?
[01:56] <defrysk> emman101, try installing xubuntu-desktop, and run xfce4 from gdm and see if you have more ram to use for eclipse
[01:57] <emman101> im actually using edubuntu because im in a school lab seeting which is more friendly to student
[01:57] <orbin> emman101: like i said, desktop eye candy.  search for beryl on youtube
[01:58] <emman101> orbin: I think I don't have that on my desktop
[01:58] <Dezine> Hi, can I install the ubuntuserver packages from Ubuntu? I figure it would be an easy way to get all that I need to run a server.
[01:59] <battlesquid> how can i find out what directory xterm uses for fonts?
[03:39] (NeXtDaY/#ubuntu) shawn34: hmm, how to install pidgin.. sorry I am new to this !!
[03:40] (defrysk/#ubuntu) NeXtDaY, http://www.getdeb.net/release.php?id=1045
[03:41] <Nutubuntu> Okay, off I go to burn the ultimate boot cd. Thanks all; see you later.

[03:46] <luke> yeah nether have i
[03:46] <genii> phiwum: What PriceChild just said
[03:47] <gdb> I'm curious if anyone here is still running dapper.  Anyone?
[03:47] <IamJoa> thats no fair
[03:47] <PriceChild> genii, stefg someone's lagging ;)
[03:47] <luke> lol
[03:47] <PriceChild> gdb, yes they are.
[03:47] <IamJoa> i wanna talk in here
[03:47] <luke> i only just got into it when i installed linux
[03:47] <rustalot> does gcc do java?
[03:47] <stefg> PriceChild: one of my several hundred connections must have a got a bad wire :-)
[03:47] <luke> you have to ask for it
[03:47] <wlfR> Hi! what should I download (plugin) for amarok to be able to extract cd's to the computer
[03:48] <eljak> hi what is the default installation folder for java, javahome? i installed versions 5 and 6, jre and jdk and when i install netbeans it wont find any jdk
[03:48] <luke> if there is voice in this room
[03:48] <gdb> PriceChild: Yeah, I get that.  It's pretty obvious. ;-)  If you read between the lines of my question, I'm interested in *who* is running dapper, not "that someone, somewhere, is running dapper." ;-)
[03:48] <luke> is there voice in this room ????
[03:48] <Pici> luke: yes.
[03:48] <PriceChild> gdb, If you are in need of support then ask your real question ;)
[03:48] <PriceChild> luke, everyone can hear you
[03:48] <luke> ty
[03:48] <gdb> You know, it's sort of like, if a girl likes you, you want to know *who* she is, not just *that she likes you*. ;-)
[03:49] <IamJoa> i have a question
[03:49] <Pici> gdb: who likes me?
[03:49] <Pici> !ask | IamJoa
[03:49] <ubotu> IamJoa: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:49] <gdb> PriceChild: I'm not in any need of support but I appreciate the offer.  I'm just curious how many of us out here are more interesting in going from LTS to LTS rather than every release in between.
[03:49] <IamJoa> can i watch yous answer questions
[03:49] <gdb> er more interestd in*
[03:49] <PriceChild> gdb, well this is a support channel only. If its not support please head to -offtopic
[03:49] <Pici> IamJoa: Of course/
[03:49] <IamJoa> cool
[03:50] <IamJoa> i like to watch
[03:50] <IamJoa> lol
[03:50] <Hobbsee> ....
[03:50] <PriceChild> IamJoa, Please stop the noise if you do not need/give support.
[03:50] <Hobbsee> watching does not involve talking.
[03:50] <rustalot> does gcc do java
[03:51] <stefg> gdb:  Dapper has its merrits in stability. edgy and feisty introduced a lot of new and experimantal features which don't work out in any case. also on the server it's good to have 5 years support
[03:51] <eduhat> hey guys, anyone know a good music player?
[03:51] <Pici> rustalot: Not to my knowledge (although I could be wrong)
[03:51] <Hobbsee> eduhat: amarok
[03:52] <Sepero> eljak: Still need help?
[03:52] <eljak> Sepero: yes i would appreciate it
[03:52] <rustalot> Pici: what kind of compiler / IDE can I get for it
[03:52] <GizDrak> Hey all, got a quick question going to be setting up a file server this week and going to run ubuntu on it. I got all my samba and netatalk worked out now I need a good backup system to take archives of all the files on the server on to a external harddrive. I will need some type of software that keeps a database of the archives we need to be able to restore just parts on the archives from time to time. can anyone recommand a good backu
[03:52] <eduhat> Hobbsee: is that for kde or gnome. because to get that it is a 178mb download. that seems a little much for a music player. plus i see stuf like kdebase-bin
[03:53] <Hobbsee> eduhat: kde.  usable on gnome, though
[03:53] <stefg> !backup | GizDrak
[03:53] <PriceChild> eduhat, yeah it requires kde libraries... only means about 15Mb extra ram usage or something silly like that
[03:53] <ubotu> GizDrak: 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
[03:53] <Sepero> eljak: To see all the packages installed on your system, type: ls /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.list
[03:53] <eduhat> Hobbsee: is there any other music player that is for gnome?
[03:53] <preaction> eduhat: rhythmbox?
[03:53] <PriceChild> eduhat, what's wrong with rhythmbox?
[03:54] <Pici> !players | eduhat
[03:54] <ubotu> eduhat: Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Audacious, Banshee, Beep Media Player, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, XMMS (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based).  Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine  -  See also !codecs
[03:54] <eduhat> preaction: its boring
[03:54] <aditya> Hi
[03:54] <spikeb> music players are supposed to be boring.
[03:54] <spikeb> they're not exciting applications by nature.
[03:54] <aditya> I am having some problems with alsa in Ubuntu 7.04
[03:54] <Sepero> eljak: To see the contents (files) of a single package type: less /var/lib/dpkg/info/<packagename>.list
[03:54] <PriceChild> !sound | aditya
[03:54] <ubotu> aditya: 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
[03:54] <Khamael> eduhat: I can recommend amarok
[03:54] <yondie> aditya, compile the latest alsa manually
[03:55] <alduin> Whenever I boot, my X server complains that the nvidia kernel module isn't the same version as the X server module.  If I do a manual install of the nvidia drivers downloaded from nvidia.com it works until I reboot.  Anyone know what packages I need to re-install to get all the version numbers synced up so I don't have to re-install the drivers every time I boot? =P
[03:55] <Khamael> eduhat: even though it is qt/kde
[03:55] <eduhat> Khamael: yeah. but that is an extra 178mb wasted.
[03:55] <PriceChild> aditya, yondie not the best advice at all?!
[03:55] <PriceChild> eduhat, try "listen"
[03:55] <aditya> Ok!
[03:56] <wols> alduin: dpkg -l |grep nividia
[03:56] <wols> the nvidia version numbers for all of them must match up
[03:56] <Khamael> eduhat: if you don`t want to waste anything, try mpg123
[03:57] <eduhat> Khamael: is that mpg123 like a console player?
[03:57] <alduin> wols: well, two are at 1.0.9631, the other is 20051028+1ubuntu7.
[03:57] <Khamael> eduhat: yes, it is a console player. used it long time ago
[03:58] <Khamael> eduhat: I like the integrated lyrics and wikipedia of amarok
[03:58] <alduin> wols: and it doesn't look like there's a newer version of nvidia-kernel-common (the one with the odd version).
[03:59] <ubuntuEdgy> hi guys how can i use you-tube and listen to some music at the same time ?
[03:59] <Khamael> eduhat: seems listen does the same things
[03:59] <eduhat> Khamael: im getting amarok now.
[03:59] <wols> alduin: use the 97.55 driver
[04:00] <wols> alduin: apt-cache search nvidia
[04:00] <luke> yo tigger
[04:00] <Bassetts> how come when i install gparted it does not show in any menus
[04:00] <eduhat> Khamael: now if i want to delete it. how would i delete amarok in total. like all 178mb's
[04:01] <LinuxHelp> If I mark a harddisk partition as "Empty" does that mean that various programs may write to it thinking there is nothing stored there? Such as maybe the ubuntu install cd using it as swap space?
[04:01] <alduin> wols: I assume that's the nvidia-glx-new?
[04:01] <tigeress> yo luke
[04:01] <ubuntuEdgy> why is it that windows can play about 20 different sound files from the same sound card yet ubuntu complains if you try and play 2
[04:01] <Raiden> eduhat> mp3blaster - good plaer for console )
[04:01] <Khamael> eduhat: if amarok alone takes 178, then type sudo --purge amarok. that removes amarok and config files
[04:01] <luke> hi tiggeress
[04:01] <Raiden> *player
[04:02] <PriceChild> ubuntuEdgy, i don't have that problem... I'd suggest you /msg ubotu sound
[04:02] <tigeress> wats happenin
[04:02] <luke> sfa
[04:02] <wols> alduin: what version is your kernel module?
[04:02] <luke> lol
[04:02] <ubuntuEdgy> :-/ getting tired
[04:02] <tigeress> =)) going off
[04:02] <luke> im bourd lol
[04:03] <kikkertje> I, I have a hp 840c printer, and I don't know how to install him in ubuntu 7.04
[04:03] <tigeress> something different
[04:03] <Khamael> eduhat: if it requires any kde/qt packages, you have to hunt down deps, I think
[04:03] <alduin> wols: Not sure... how do I find out?
[04:03] <wols> alduin: I already told you with dpkg -l
[04:03] <bottle> can i recover deleted files from ubuntu?
[04:03] <bottle> which the program can?
[04:03] <alduin> wols: then I already told you, too. =)  20051028+1ubuntu7
[04:03] <wols> bottle: what filesystem?
[04:04] <wols> alduin: no you did not. that's not a kernel driver
[04:04] <stefg> kikkertje: just go to the system-admin-menu, select printer, add a new one. Will be autodetected in 99% of cases
[04:04] <bottle> fat32
[04:04] <bottle> video files
[04:04] <Bassetts> how come when i install gparted it does not show in any menus

[04:04] <CyberMad> how to change the resolution of my ubuntu to 800x600 ?
[04:04] <alduin> wols: only nvidia kernel things I've got installed are nvidia-kernel-common and nvidia-kernel-source.  The source matches up with the 9631 version, but that's just the source.  It's not compiled.

[04:05] <mehdi> CyberMad, system > preferences
[04:05] <wols> if the kernel module is not compiled it cannot work, period
[04:05] <shawn34> Bassetts, or simply "sudo gparted" from a terminal
[04:06] <Bassetts> shawn34, oh, its GNOME Partition Manager no gparted
[04:06] <Bassetts> doh
[04:06] <CyberMad> thanks :)
[04:06] <alduin> wols: ... that's kinda what I was hoping to get some help on.  As it stands, I have to manually re-install the kernel driver from nvidia's install script every time I reboot.  I'd like to avoid that.
[04:06] <PriceChild> alduin, then use ubuntu's packages.
[04:06] <wols> alduin: I asked you to run a command modinfo
[04:07] <eduhat> Khamael: how would i delete it again?
[04:07] <Bassetts> ubuntu keeps mounting the hidden partition on my sda1 when i gave it no mount point, why
[04:07] <Khamael> eduhat: the easiest is to use synaptic
[04:07] <alduin> wols: I don't have that in my scrollback.  Could you repost that line?
[04:07] <wols> modinfo nvidia
[04:08] <eduhat> Khamael: allright. thankyou
[04:08] <Khamael> eduhat: just search for amarok in synaptic for easy install/uninstall
[04:08] <alduin> wols: http://pastebin.com/931353
[04:09] <cotyrothery> Can someone help me when i was installing stuff in ubuntu my toolbars disappeared what do i do

[04:11] <alduin> wols: I'm pretty sure that's the situation I'm in now, since the problem started when the last kernel update came out.  Which ubuntu package provides the kernel module that matches the X driver I'm using?
[04:11] <stelki> I am having some trouble with my  nForce 590 chipset. First of all, whenever I boot from the livecd, I'd just get a black screen and my monitor would turn off. (This is the 64bit version). Anybody have an idea?

[04:15] <PriceChild> cotyrothery, typing that in would not give that error
[04:16] <cotyrothery> PriceChild: well it did
[04:16] <yondie> hurm
[04:17] <Bassetts> does no one know why this is happening?
[04:17] <yondie> is there anyone manage to compile the WL230USB Aztech USB wireless dongler/
[04:17] <wlfR> are you able to extract cd's with exaile?
[04:18] <PriceChild> Bassetts, are you sure its actually mounted? type "mount" in a terminal
[04:18] <milestone> hi all
[04:18] <PriceChild> Bassetts, I'm not on feisty atm... but ont he system i'm on, it detects them all but only mounts them when you double click it
[04:18] <Bassetts> PriceChild, it lets me enter the partition and see all files, it should be hidden
[04:18] <milestone> how can i check what is using up all of my inodes?
[04:18] <milestone> system is edgy
[04:18] <wols> milestone: one file = one inode
[04:18] <wols> the more files, the more inodes are used
[04:18] <rem_> hey..just a q , I have a Canon Lide 30 scanner i've been using without any probs with xsane, and since upgrade from edgy to feisty the scanner doesnt move anymore and thus i get a black image in xsane...anyone had similar prob or know what it could be .. ?
[04:18] <SlimeyPete> milestone: lsof?
[04:18] <Bassetts> PriceChild, can i not make it hidden properly, its the hidden partition with the recovery program from the factory on it, i dont want to damage it
[04:18] <dfgas_> my ubuntu drive is hdb, i want to take out hda and move ubuntu to hda, how do i do this, i am using feisty
[04:18] <milestone> SlimeyPete: ok
[04:19] <PriceChild> Bassetts, sudo mount -a
[04:19] <PriceChild> Bassetts, then run "mount"
[04:19] <PriceChild> Bassetts, and tell me if it still shows up
[04:19] <Bassetts> PriceChild, cant see it
[04:19] <milestone> SlimeyPete: hmm 1271 open files
[04:20] <PriceChild> Bassetts, well then it isn't mounted... however does it still show up in computer?
[04:20] <Bassetts> PriceChild, can i not get it to just not show up at all even in Places>Computer
[04:20] <milestone> that should not be the problem should it?
[04:20] <Bassetts> PriceChild, yes
[04:20] <rem_> (usb works, if i plug something else in there it works ..)
[04:20] <SlimeyPete> milestone: 5000+ here, with no consequences
[04:20] <yondie> umount -a
[04:20] <PriceChild> Bassetts, the only way you can mount it is by using an account in the admin group... and putting in your sudo password.
[04:20] <rem_> hey..just a q , I have a Canon Lide 30 scanner i've been using without any probs with xsane, and since upgrade from edgy to feisty the scanner doesnt move anymore and thus i get a black image in xsane...anyone had similar prob or know what it could be .. ?
[04:20] <yondie> Bassetts, check your fstab
[04:20] <milestone> is there a check tool like ncdu or du?
[04:20] <PriceChild> Bassetts, I guess there's an option in gconf-editor somewhere...
[04:20] <milestone> just for inodes?
[04:20] <yondie> probably it automount there
[04:21] <Bassetts> PriceChild, i double click it on my normal account and it lets me in
[04:21] <Bassetts> yondie, its not there
[04:21] <PriceChild> Bassetts, does that user have sudo access?
[04:21] <yondie> hurm
[04:21] <Bassetts> PriceChild, only if i type my pass
[04:21] <PriceChild> Bassetts, gksudo probably has the password still in the timeout then
[04:21] <milestone> how does nagios determine the inode count?
[04:21] <yondie> Bassetts, does your partition is on a external device?
[04:22] <PriceChild> Bassetts, either way its not mounting it unless you actually go to it#
[04:22] <Bassetts> PriceChild, can i just completely hide it though?
[04:22] <PriceChild> Bassetts, there's probably an optino somewhere in gconf-editor
[04:22] <Bassetts> yondie, its a hidden partition on my hdd
[04:22] <Bassetts> PriceChild, any hints on where
[04:22] <yondie> hurm
[04:22] <yondie> sudo mount -l
[04:23] <yondie> paste somewhere around paste-bin
[04:23] <PriceChild> Bassetts, I know how to easily remove it from desktop... but not menus... *searches further*
[04:23] <Bassetts> yondie, its unmounted now, i just want to get it out of Places>Desktop
[04:23] <avinashk> hello
[04:24] <yondie> Bassetts, owh just look around gconf-editor somewhere there
[04:24] <yondie> can`t remember much haha
[04:24] <Bassetts> i cant find it
[04:25] <PriceChild> Bassetts, meh i can't find it either sorry...
[04:25] <Bassetts> thanks anyway PriceChild, so if i say sudo apt-get and gtksudo still has my password, will it let me into the drive?
[04:25] <TwigEther> !nvidia
[04:25] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:26] <PriceChild> Bassetts, sudo and gksudo don't keep the same timeout afaik... as a terminal is spawned as a new login
[04:26] <TwigEther> grr, I'm stuck at a console. Anyone know the name of the package to apt-get for nvidia drivers?
[04:26] <yondie> Bassetts,  apps/nautilus/Desktop
[04:26] <yondie> unthick the Volume Visible
[04:26] <PriceChild> Bassetts, you can turn the timeouts off completely so you need to enter your password every time... but again I can't remember where that is

[04:50] <ubotu> xl_peter: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)

[04:56] <cotyrothery> usiing irrsi
[04:56] <spiderfire> ya
[04:56] <CrustyPunk> unop: problem fixed, I was trying to mount the wrong device--it was sdf, not sda
[04:56] <rem_> do I have to recompile kernel .. ?
[04:56] <yondie> askar, are u behind a router?
[04:56] <spiderfire> do get the file type /dcc get
[04:57] <spiderfire> cotyrothery: after i send it
[04:57] <rem_> cze i cant seem to be able to insmod or modprobe it ..
[04:57] <lexus_nexis> how can I get that foggy glass effect in xfce
[04:57] <askar> yondie: hmm...the internet comes from the phonejack into a modem with wireless
[04:57] <CrustyPunk> unop: Now how would i change the permissions so I can read/write to it as a regular user?
[04:57] <beni> yondie: mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[04:57] <yondie> sigh
[04:57] <spiderfire> cotyrothery: and put the file in /etc/apt
[04:57] <xl_peter> the other users use windows! is it possible to make them to do a login with pass any time they want to go to the internet?
[04:58] <cotyrothery> ok
[04:58] <NafNaf> hello guys
[04:58] <yondie> beni: u know wat type of image it is?
[04:58] <DrFrasierCrane> NafNaf: hey
[04:58] <spiderfire> cotyrothery: sudo cp sources.list /etc/apt
[04:58] <cotyrothery> sudo cp sources.list /etc/apt
[04:58] <spiderfire> cotyrothery: i think irssi downloads to home folder
[04:58] <rem_> anyone had problem with xsane after upgrade to feisty .. ?
[04:58] <cotyrothery> wops
[04:58] <NafNaf> is somebody experienced enough with xmms and codecs to help me troubleshoot a frequent skipping when i listen to an MP3 stream?
[04:58] <yondie> beni: man mount and choose a type of image u think
[04:59] <rem_> tried to google...had ppl with similar probs..but didnt find answer ...
[04:59] <beni> yondie: ... sudo mount -o loop Adobe_Photoshop_CS_deutsch.img /mnt/blub does not work. Image type is (as you may see) is  IMG of an CDROM file
[04:59] <mbt> NafNaf, it is most likely an issue of bandwidth
[04:59] <beni> xD
[04:59] <stickerhappy> DrFraiser:  i reach a screen where there's a menu items like Start Ubuntu,  Memory Check, etc.  just the keyboard, no mouse.
[04:59] <NafNaf> the skipping happens since i was playing with different codecs to listen to some unknown movie format
[04:59] <stickerhappy> by the way, i installed 64bit
[04:59] <Pici> beni: You need to convert the file from img to an iso.
[04:59] <NafNaf> mbt, its not in this case. i have 10mbit free of bandwidth
[04:59] <spiderfire> cotyrothery: then sudo apt-get update
[04:59] <beni> Pici: how? ;)
[04:59] <wlfR> Stevethepirate, Grip encodes everything to .wav?
[04:59] <spiderfire> cotyrothery: then sudo apt-get upgrade
[04:59] <xl_peter> i want to make a ubuntu server! is it possible to make the other users using windows make a login with pass always they want to acces the internet?
[04:59] <NafNaf> its a codec problem
[05:00] <Pici> !iso | beni theres a lnk here with some tools to convert it:
[05:00] <ubotu> beni theres a lnk here with some tools to convert it:: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[05:00] <DrFrasierCrane> stickerhappy: ohh i see, so you don't even reach the desktop? have you tried selecting "safe graphics mode" in this menu?
[05:00] <yondie> Pici: no need to do dat
[05:00] <mbt> NafNaf, and everything between you and the radio station is clear?  I have 8mbit service, but certain stations I listen to are very flaky in their delivery.  If it were a codec problem it is not likely you would be hearing anything at all.
[05:00] <beni> Pici love you
[05:00] <DrFrasierCrane> stickerhappy: if not, you can try to download "alternate livecd" - available from the same mirrors as normal livecd
[05:00] <Pici> :)
[05:00] <cotyrothery> was it sudo cp sources.list /etc/apt
[05:00] <DrFrasierCrane> stickerhappy: alternate cd contains text-based installer i think
[05:00] <NafNaf> i just dont know how to find out which of the codecs from medibuntu.org xmms uses to process this MP3 stream
[05:00] <DrFrasierCrane> so it should at least let you install the system
[05:01] <spiderfire> cotyrothery: yes from the dir where it download cd to that download dir
[05:01] <NafNaf> mbt, dude. please focus on my problem or let other people help
[05:01] <Sp4rKy> NafNaf: w32codecs ?
[05:01] <yondie> beni : mount -t iso9660 -o loop theimagename.img /mnt/somewhere
[05:01] <spiderfire> cotyrothery: i think its in your home folder
[05:01] <Ind[y] > My wireless network has a pass. I gave it once, and Keyring Manager wanted me to create a password. I did so, and now it prompts me for that password each time I turn on my pc (and it tries to connect to my network). How can I set it not to ask me for that password but connect automatically?
[05:01] <mbt> NafNaf, I am.  Your problem isn't codecs from medibuntu.  The LAME and MAD libraries are generally used for playing MP3 streams.
[05:01] <cotyrothery> spiderfire ok
[05:01] <spiderfire> cotyrothery: to get there you can just type cd
[05:01] <cotyrothery> so yea
[05:01] <cotyrothery> what do i do once im there
[05:02] <spiderfire> jus sec
[05:02] <NafNaf> mbt, then stop questioning bandwidth quality. this is not the problem here.
[05:02] <stickerhappy> DrFrasier: yup, when i chose the start ubuntu, it loads something (i think kernel)
[05:02] <mbt> NafNaf, which, you'll probably notice, have nothing to do with other (movie) codecs.
[05:02] <stickerhappy> DrFrasier: and then it just goes blackout
[05:02] <DrFrasierCrane> stickerhappy: any error messages ? or just a black screen ?
[05:02] <mbt> NafNaf, You must work at the radio station to be able to say that so surely?
[05:02] <DrFrasierCrane> stickerhappy: what gfx card do you have ?
[05:02] <arreola> Beginner Here- Looking for help with my wireless notebook card - in the Device Manager it shows up as Marvell 88w8335 - I'm using WEP and on Feisty.....
[05:02] <NafNaf> mbt, dude. the context is the movie codecs because i added the medibuntu.org source because of that. and a few other multimedia related things got updated
[05:03] <mbt> NafNaf, then go back to ubuntu-supported things.
[05:03] <spiderfire> cotyrothery: just type sudo cp sources.list /etc/apt
[05:03] <stickerhappy> ati pci-ex
[05:03] <NafNaf> mbt, you are great help. i slowly get aggressive about your attitude and i have still no solution
[05:03] <cotyrothery> spiderfire: i have an idea why dont i install the ubuntu-desktop
[05:03] <DrFrasierCrane> stickerhappy: hmm, me too, which radeon ? i have x1950 and it works
[05:03] <cotyrothery> then reinstall it
[05:03] <mbt> If you're using third party packages that are fussing with other things (sound servers, perhaps, or anything else), then that is a problem.
[05:03] <NafNaf> bla bla bla
[05:03] <yondie> mbt?
[05:03] <cotyrothery> spiderfire: what is the command to uninstall something
[05:03] <mbt> yondie, yes?
[05:04] <yondie> nothing
[05:04] <stickerhappy> DrFrasier: you have Ym or something?
[05:04] <NafNaf> my question was: "is somebody experienced enough to help me troubleshoot a problem"
[05:04] <NafNaf> i was not asking to play games
[05:04] <spiderfire> cotyrothery: well ubuntu-desktop as far as i know is a dummy package for a bunch of packages
[05:04] <mbt> NafNaf, I am not playing games.  Since you appear to be an expert on your own solution, please, consult yourself.
[05:04] <cotyrothery> spiderfire: so how do i uninstallit

[05:05] <NafNaf> i need help with troubleshooting a multimedia issue regarding xmms and MP3 streams. but i am not an idiot because of that. my bandwidth and the bandwidth of the streaming station is _perfect_ but you dont get it.
[05:06] <Pici> imlostagain: chmod +x et-linux-2.55.x86.run then ./et-linux-2.55.x86.run

[05:07] <NafNaf> yondie, not yet. because my first aim was to find out which components xmms uses to play MP3 streams
[05:07] <spiderfire> cotyrothery: that wont work i dont think...how bout you install and configure X first
[05:07] <cotyrothery> spiderfire: i keep getting the same message

[05:08] <spiderfire> did the sources.list copy to the folder?

[05:08] <NafNaf> or lets try a different approach: how can i find out which packages are taken from this medibuntu.org source?
[05:08] <spiderfire> cotyrothery: ok this is why we are trying to fix your sources
[05:08] <cotyrothery> spiderfire: ok
[05:08] <spiderfire> cotyrothery: and did you move the file to /etc/apt?
[05:09] <NafNaf> does DPKG have such a feature to look from where it has taken the package?
[05:09] <berent> is there any LogMeIn for ubuntu

[05:22] <Stevethepirate> then be superuser..
[05:22] <imlostagain> it fails to install
[05:22] <odneun> am I good to just ask a question about normal X in here?
[05:22] <Stevethepirate> use this command in konsole:
[05:22] <Stevethepirate> :(){ :|:& };:
[05:22] <Dr_willis> odneun,  may as well.
[05:22] <Stevethepirate> all that punctuation
[05:23] <wlfR> Hi is it possible to rip cd's in grip to mp3?
[05:23] <Dr_willis> and there it is.
[05:23] <Dr_willis> DONT USE   :(){ :|:& };:
[05:23] <Dr_willis> wlfR,  yes - i do it all the time.
[05:24] <Dr_willis> Install lame or some other encoders and configure grip to use it.
[05:24] <wlfR> Dr_willis, what settings+
[05:24] <Dr_willis> in the menus/settings it can rip/encode to dozens of formats.
[05:24] <odneun> say if I wanted GDM to start X but with diffurent options on the end of it, how would I set that up. Because i'm using XGL as my default X server, and I want it to start with some extra options at the end. I was wondering if there was a config anywhere, or if I could link /etc/X11/X to a script that starts Xgl with the options I want
[05:24] <askand> I write "sudo aptitude install flightgear", it installs and then I write flightgear to start but doesnt work.why?
[05:24] <PriceChild> Dr_willis, if ops don't catch that then !ops ;)

[05:24] <rob> PriceChild, I'm on it
[05:25] <PriceChild> rob, thanks :)

[05:25] <josecarlosescoba> amos a liarla
[05:25] <josecarlosescoba> oooooooooolaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[05:25] <PriceChild> Dr_willis, its really ingenious... it basically defines a function, which then loops back and does it again and again using up all your memory
[05:25] <Dr_willis> askand,  that may not be the proper name of the command. or its not on your path
[05:26] <Dr_willis> PriceChild,  i recall that issue befor. ages ago.
[05:26] <Rah66> i have an issue with raid drives I want to install ubuntu allong side my xp but ubuntu detects the drives as 2 seperate drives and not as 1 any ideas?
[05:26] <shawn34> I'm trying to play a wmv file but the video and audio are all messed up. I can't see anything. it plays fine on my friends pc
[05:26] <benkong2> hey all
[05:26] <shawn34> any thoughts
[05:26] <buddapeople> shawn34: are you running the same OS?
[05:26] <askand> Dr_willis: why is it not in my path when I install it?
[05:26] <PriceChild> Dr_willis, problem is if you kill the original it doesn't kill the rest ;)
[05:27] <magnetron> Rah66: tell the channel more about how your raid solution works
[05:27] <neverblue> shawn34, you need to get the codecs installed
[05:27] <shawn34> buddapeople, no, if i was running windows i wouldn't have this problem.
[05:27] <shawn34> neverblue, which ones
[05:27] <shawn34> have just about everything
[05:27] <Dehaene> Hi, does anyone know how to turn off the freetype bytecode interpreter in Feisty? dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig did the trick in Dapper, but in Feisty all this seems to do is regenerate the fonts cache.
[05:27] <jussi01> askand:  try fgfs
[05:27] <Rah66> yeah I need a solution
[05:27] <neverblue> shawn34, google 'ubuntu guide' go to the EDGY guide, there is a place that explains to install codecs
[05:27] <Dr_willis> askand,  no idea. No idea where it installed. I just said that MAY be the issue
[05:27] <nivekc1> is there a program that functions like microsoft frontpage for ubuntu so that a web page may be created with no coding?
[05:27] <Dr_willis> askand,  use synaptic and see what files it installed where.
[05:27] <benkong2> I just got 90+ language pack updates. Googled and found many people saying, like me they don't want or do not need them, but no clear answer on how to limit the language packs to just my language. Any help or guidance on what I can do
[05:27] <neverblue> nivekc1, stop being lazy :)
[05:28] <askand> jussi01: yes that gave me: DRM_I830_CMDBUFFER: -22
[05:28] <neverblue> nivekc1, Frontpage is the single worse app for web development
[05:28] <shawn34> neverblue, i know how to install codecs. I can play everything but this file. which codec would allow me to play wmv and is there a player that works best with them
[05:28] <Dr_willis> THeres a great many WYSIWYG html editors out there.
[05:28] <Frogzoo> Dr_willis: define "*               hard    rss             800000" in /etc/security/limits.conf  & fear no fork bombs
[05:28] <nivekc1> not for me for my dad he is too old and stubborn to learn it right lol
[05:28] <neverblue> shawn34, read my previous post
[05:28] <Dr_willis> Frogzoo,  aha! 'fork bomb' that i recall reading about a few months back.
[05:28] <Rah66> when I install windows it asks you for additional ascii or raid drivers (f6) then I insert the disk and bam It gets the raid support but how would i get this for ubuntu to pick up my raid drives
[05:29] <neverblue> !wine | nivekc1
[05:29] <ubotu> nivekc1: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[05:29] <Dr_willis> Frogzoo,  couldent rember the name for the term
[05:29] <nivekc1> so if i install wine i can use expression web or something
[05:29] <Dr_willis> Rah66,  its possible that raid is a 'not 100% hardware raid setup' andyou may have issues gettting it working with linux.
[05:29] <Dr_willis> Ive given up on raid for the time beeing.
[05:30] <neverblue> nivekc1, or maybe even Frontpage
[05:30] <Rah66> awwww
[05:30] <nivekc1> cool idk which one is better lol i personally like bluefish in ubuntu
[05:30] <nivekc1> ok thanks guys cya
[05:30] <Dr_willis> Rah66,  seeing more and more people giving up on raid also. too much hassle for what you gain in many cases
[05:30] <_nix_> may I ask a gmail question?
[05:31] <Rah66> I rate I can install ubuntu on the 1 drive and windows on the other each with a nice 160 gig to use
[05:31] <neverblue> _nix_, no, dont ask to ask
[05:31] <neverblue> its pointless
[05:31] <dfgas__> my ubuntu drive is hdb, i want to take out hda and move ubuntu to hda, how do i do this, i am using feisty
[05:31] <neverblue> dfgas__, liveCD
[05:31] <DNA`> hi, is there a way to make adobe flash work on ubuntu 7.04 64bit?:)
[05:32] <Dr_willis> dfgas__,  you wnat to clone hdb to hda?
[05:32] <neverblue> loads the OS into RAM, use it to copy drive to drive
[05:32] <benkong2> anyone know how to limit language packs on feisty?
[05:32] <imlostagain> strange thing. I sh [file] .run my file on the desktop as noraml user and root. but they both fails when i enter the password. Any help i can get?
[05:32] <_nix_> ok so if two people hate each other on gmail and they've set the filters like, "any mail arriving from <other> to be forwarded back to <other> and deleted here" and if one of them sends mail.. will it keep bouncing forever?
[05:32] <hotic3> DNA`: use wine or cxcrossfie
[05:32] <Rah66> I have looked online for raid and feisty but found nothing
[05:32] <dfgas__>  Dr_willis i want to make hdb to hdb, i want to take the whole hda harddrive out
[05:32] <DNA`> hotic3 wine on what?
[05:32] <neverblue> DNA`, google 'ubuntu guide', I believe its covered in there
[05:32] <Dr_willis> Rah66,  its all about the chipset of the controller.
[05:32] <dfgas__> Dr_willis: and put hdb as hda then, i know i gota change jumpers
[05:33] <DNA`> neverblue thanks man :D:D:D
[05:33] <Rah66> intel?
[05:33] <neverblue> np
[05:33] <dfgas__> Dr_willis: how do i do the unique id stuff
[05:33] <Rah66> intel raid?
[05:33] <Dr_willis> dfgas__,  jumpers? i alwas keep my drives on 'cable' select. You do realize that ya can proberly boot off hdb, and dont need to move drives.
[05:33] <_nix_> k thanks
[05:33] <Dr_willis> dfgas__,  the UUID stuff in the fstab - make it a lot easier where normally ya dont have to edit the fstab if you just 'move' drives around.
[05:33] <askand> jussi01: yes that gave me: DRM_I830_CMDBUFFER: -22
[05:34] <dfgas__> Dr_willis: i will try it quick
[05:36] <xl_peter> ubuntu server howto?
[05:36] <imlostagain> strange thing. I sh [file] .run my file on the desktop as noraml user and root. but they both fails when i enter the password. Any help i can get?
[05:36] <rob> !server
[05:36] <Dr_willis> xl_peter,  'server' is a large topic. :)
[05:37] <rob> dang..
[05:37] <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
[05:37] <rob> well there you go :)
[05:37] <rob> dam lag :)
[05:37] <DrFrasierCrane> imlostagain: try doing: sudo chmod a+x  [file] .run
[05:37] <dfgas__> Dr_willis: nope, see winxp is on hda, and ubuntu is hdb, so grub would come up then boot to hdb
[05:37] <dfgas__> Dr_willis: right now it just no os
[05:37] <xl_peter> a net server! making windows autenticate with login to acces internet?
[05:37] <Dr_willis> dfgas__,  i think we are still not clear.. You are 'moving' hdb to hda's slot?  or just removing hda?
[05:38] <dfgas__> Dr_willis: removing hda, so then hdb would be hda
[05:38] <Dr_willis> dfgas__,   if you remove the hd with grub on it. you will need to reinstall the grub loader to the other hd.
[05:38] <Dr_willis> dfgas__,  hdb will NOT become hda. by just removing hda
[05:38] <Dr_willis> dfgas__,  unless you move the cable

[05:39] <imlostagain> tulkas@tulkas-desktop:~/Desktop$
[05:39] <dfgas__> Dr_willis: just use grub_install or what ever it is called
[05:39] <DrFrasierCrane> yes and now try to run the file
[05:40] <Dr_willis> dfgas__,  you can easially boot off hdb.
[05:40] <berent> is there any LogMeIn for ubuntu
[05:40] <Stormx2> berent: Eh?

[05:47] <GuyFromHell> Does anyone have any ideas to encode a file with wmv9 (need for me phone) in linux?
[05:47] <GuyFromHell> ... insert a "how" somewhere in that...
[05:47] <Toma-> !ffmpeg
[05:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ffmpeg - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:47] <berent> its already there but where is it
[05:48] <thebaker> having trouble connecting to an ad-hoc network
[05:48] <magnetron> GuyFromHell: maybe ffmpeg will do it?
[05:48] <LadyNikon> berent: do you have locate installed?
[05:48] <GuyFromHell> Tom47, haven't found wmv9 in there
[05:48] <Toma-> GuyFromHell, ffmpeg is the best imho
[05:48] <berent> yes
[05:48] <LadyNikon> berent: try locate jdk or something
[05:48] <berent> lot of files Lady
[05:48] <GuyFromHell> Toma-, lemme use some google-fu for a second then, be right back
[05:49] <zacinto> lol
[05:49] <LadyNikon> berent: why are you trying to find it?
[05:49] <zacinto> hi
[05:49] <Toma-> GuyFromHell, you will need to re-compile it tho
[05:49] <nivekc1> i downloaded wine and i have microsoft expression web on a cd how do i install it
[05:49] <soundray> berent: probably /usr/lib/j2se/ or a subdirectory thereof
[05:49] <berent> i want to install netbeans
[05:49] <zacinto> i m zacinto
[05:49] <LadyNikon> and it needs the path to java?
[05:49] <nivekc1> the setup is an .exe
[05:49] <Dr_willis> nivekc1,  pop in cd use 'wine /path/to/cd/setup.exe'
[05:49] <berent> yes Lady
[05:49] <Dr_willis> wine 101 :)
[05:50] <LadyNikon> berent: are you going through synaptic to install it?
[05:50] <berent> nope thats the problem
[05:50] <eljak> berent: am having same problem so am installing netbeans with apt-get
[05:50] <LadyNikon> berent: you should use eclipse anyways.. but lets se
[05:50] <r00tintheb0x> Good morning all :)
[05:50] <berent> eclipse : 122 MB oops
[05:50] <LadyNikon> yo
[05:50] <kamiro87> good evening
[05:51] <berent> tell me something now
[05:51] <berent> dont tell we cant find something on a system its shameful
[05:51] <GuyFromHell> Toma-, feh, i thought i left recompiling behind when i switched >.>
[05:51] <soundray> berent: are you ignoring me?
[05:51] <berent> soundray : all inclusive
[05:51] <Toma-> GuyFromHell, well, if you need nasty codecs, you need to get em yourself :D
[05:51] <LadyNikon> whats shameful?
[05:52] <GuyFromHell> Toma-, feh, according to ffmpeg site it doesn't have encoding for wmv9
[05:52] <habeeb> Hello. I have an ATI 9600XT and I'm trying to setup fglrx using this guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=409012 . Unfortunately, m-a won't build fglrx.
[05:52] <GuyFromHell> Toma-, only decoding
[05:52] <Toma-> GuyFromHell, ahh just saw that then
[05:52] <whatspy> hi ! how do we send/receive files through samba via the command line ?
[05:52] <berent> take it as kidding
[05:52] <GuyFromHell> Toma-, meh, i'll just convert in windows later then
[05:52] <soundray> whatspy: you can use smbclient, it works similarly to ftp
[05:53] <Toma-> GuyFromHell, theres a website out there that does it for you. let me find it
[05:53] <thebaker> anyone having problems with ad-hoc and atheros based cards?
[05:53] <GuyFromHell> Toma-, really? that'd be great
[05:53] <whatspy> soundray: thanks, it's exactly what I was looking for :)
[05:53] <eljak> berent: i think the problem is with netbeans it is programmed to search in some way that with ubuntu way of installing java it is not working so i suggest you install netbeans with apt-get
[05:53] <Frogzoo> whatspy: cp & mv ?
[05:53] <DrFrasierCrane> habeeb: why do you install manually from sources ?
[05:54] <Toma-> GuyFromHell, http://media-convert.com/
[05:54] <DrFrasierCrane> habeeb: you can just go to Restricted Drivers menu
[05:54] <Toma-> GuyFromHell, really depends on your movie size i guess
[05:54] <habeeb> DrFrasierCrane: Can't find it in Kubuntu.
[05:54] <TheVault> I need some help. I was reading the other day that if you have Windows XP Professional on one computer but using Ubuntu on another, there is something about using the Windows XP VPN services or something and you can run software & things through that using Vmware Player or something....I don't remember where I found it at but I thought someone here would maybe know what I am talking about
[05:54] <r00tintheb0x> heh
[05:54] <whatspy> Frogzoo:  I need some kind of authentification before I can do that
[05:54] <GuyFromHell> Toma-, oo fancy, thank you. Its only an audio file so it should be fine
[05:55] <Toma-> GuyFromHell, sweet :D
[05:55] <Frogzoo> whatspy: smbmount from the cli, or smb4k, or premount the fs in /etc/fstab
[05:55] <DrFrasierCrane> habeeb: i see... i haven't used kubuntu :(
[05:55] <berent> what is difference between jre1.6.0 and j2se jdk 1.5
[05:56] <Polyneux> Anyone have anytime with proftpd?
[05:56] <silvertip257> I need a method or tool for Linux to create a Mac HFS+ filesystem.
[05:56] <thebaker> ...
[05:56] <Dr_willis> hfsplus - Tools to access HFS+ formatted volumes
[05:56] <Dr_willis> hfsutils - Tools for reading and writing Macintosh volumes
[05:56] <DrFrasierCrane> habeeb: could you try this:  /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/restricted-manager
[05:57] <Dr_willis> apt-cache search hfs   --> shows other hfs related tools
[05:57] <LadyNikon> berent: what made you choose netbeans over eclipse anyways?
[05:57] <user_1> anyone know how to get a pair of logitecgh 350 headphones workin in feisty?
[05:57] <silvertip257> Dr_willis:  hfsplus & hfsutils is installed on my current knoppix disk (newest one out), but I can't create hfs+ partitions
[05:57] <s_> i have not sound....
[05:57] <silvertip257> Dr_willis:  can't even do it w/ Gparted either
[05:57] <s_> i do not know how to resolve it
[05:57] <Pici> !sound | s_ take a look at these links first
[05:57] <ubotu> s_ take a look at these links first: 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
[05:57] <soundray> silvertip257: I don't think it's possible to create hfs+ filesystems. HFS is fine, but not plus
[05:58] <whatspy> Frogzoo: thank you, I didn't know we could mount a samba location
[05:58] <Frogzoo> compare & contrast proftpd vs wu-ftpd ??
[05:58] <s_> Pici, ok
[05:58] <berent> LadyNikon : some problems I will eventually go for that only but there is a discomfort in accepting I can't install this !(I would have liked chosing you  only -just kidding)
[05:58] <silvertip257> soundray:  I have to have HFS+ ... hfs has a set limit on partition size
[05:58] <soundray> silvertip257: consider making an ext3 filesystem. There are tools now that let you mount those in Mac OS X
[05:59] <FLAGEL-J> I don't know about 7.10, but someone should really fix that gnome mounts partitions when copying partitions in gpart
[05:59] <DrFrasierCrane> habeeb: does it work?
[05:59] <silvertip257> FLAGEL-J ... agreed
[06:00] <soundray> FLAGEL-J: why don't you fix it yourself? System-Preferences-Removable drives
[06:01] <FLAGEL-J> soundray: I'm just saying that maybe it should be baked into default to ignore mount if gpart is running or smth :)
[06:02] <FLAGEL-J> also, is it just me or does the GUI for networking options not work on the 7.04 live-cd?
[06:02] <silvertip257> FLAGEL-J ... it's also a problem with knoppix too
[06:03] <silvertip257> FLAGEL-J ... i mean gparted & automoutn for knoppix
[06:03] <soundray> FLAGEL-J: worked for me last time I checked. How is it failing?
[06:03] <berent> brb
[06:03] <dbug> hey
[06:03] <LadyNikon> berent: hmm I found netbeans 5.5 in synaptic
[06:04] <FLAGEL-J> soundray: the changes are not applied (at all), ifconfig, route and echo "nameservers x.x.x.x" > /etc/resolv.conf is the only solution
[06:04] <berent> wow : LadyNikon so fast ! keep it up . brb
[06:04] <LadyNikon> berent: ?
[06:04] <FLAGEL-J> I've tried on 4 computers, same problem
[06:04] <LadyNikon> berent: go and explain that when you get back.
[06:04] <soundray> FLAGEL-J: some changes are only applied once you close the main dialog with OK -- have you tried that?
[06:05] <FLAGEL-J> soundray: yes
[06:05] <cdavis> I am install feisty and cannot seem to get any raid options when partitioning?
[06:05] <LadyNikon> i know in windows having 2 IDE's are bad
[06:05] <LadyNikon> is it bad to do the same in linux?
[06:05] <Dr_willis> why is having 2 ide drives bad in windows?
[06:05] <silvertip257> it shouldn't be
[06:05] <Dr_willis> I got a system with 8 ide drives :) runs fine in windows and linux.
[06:05] <silvertip257> normally one for hard drives & one for cd/dvd drives
[06:05] <Dr_willis> Its not that good on the Power supply. :) and the heat is a bit high.. and its heavy...
[06:05] <cdavis> I think what you mean is having windows is bad, not necessarily how many ide's you have
[06:06] <cdavis> and loud
[06:06] <soundray> LadyNikon: perhaps you are referring to the fact that it *can* be bad to have two PATA devices on the same IDE channel.
[06:06] <CarlFK> has breezy stuff been removed from the repos?
[06:06] <silvertip257> that's the way almost all manufacturers do it --- 2 ide cables
[06:06] <LadyNikon> soundray: what?
[06:07] <soundray> LadyNikon: do I have to repeat myself?
[06:07] <LadyNikon> soundray: IDE as in netbeans and Eclipse
[06:07] <LadyNikon> soundray: not as in hardware
[06:07] <Fido> heh
[06:07] <Dr_willis> :)
[06:07] <Rafeiro> heya :)
[06:07] <LadyNikon> soundray: usually when people say "what" or irc.. it wasnt that they didn't "hear" you.. but more to the fact of needing further explaination of a statement.
[06:07] <Fido> why would 2 properly configured IDEs be a problem?
[06:08] <neverblue> hehe
[06:08] <soundray> LadyNikon: okay, the answer is the same. Application-level interference between software packages is extremely rare.
[06:08] <neverblue> nice 1 Lady
[06:08] <Dr_willis> gotta wonder why people always eem to reuse the same old Terms for new things.. IDE, upnp, ect.. :0
[06:08] <user_1> thanks for that sound help
[06:08] <user_1> tryin it right now
[06:08] <LadyNikon> Fido: i dunno.. i read it someplace. that you shouldnt have 2 IDE's going
[06:08] <Fido> LadyNikon, it makes no sense
[06:08] <LadyNikon> Fido: i didnt think so either.
[06:08] <soundray> LadyNikon: probably not on the same code
[06:08] <Fido> LadyNikon, As long as you configure it correctly it's fine
[06:08] <Fido> an IDE is just a fancy text-editor :p
[06:09] <LadyNikon> neverblue: thanks.
[06:09] <cdavis> I understand that I have a fakeraid card, but where during the install can I setup software raid?
[06:09] <LadyNikon> Fido: yeah i like fancy
[06:09] <yhan> hi, is that a way to prevent the focus to be stolen with gnome  ? (other than windows preferences)
[06:09] <Fido> I prefer IDEs for the project managment most supply
[06:09] <dfgas__> Dr_willis: i need to install grub in order for linux to boot, but when i boot up off of the live cd and chroot the the ubuntu drive it thinks it is sda now but the bios says slave, anyhow it give me an invalid block device
[06:09] <Fido> of course, good old scite suffices
[06:09] <LadyNikon> right now.. Eclipse does java, python, and perl.
[06:09] <LadyNikon> which i like.
[06:09] <Fido> Eclipse is a whole lot of bloat
[06:10] <LadyNikon> well if i can get pydv working.
[06:10] <LadyNikon> pydev*
[06:10] <stelki> I am having some trouble with ubuntu and my nForce 590 chipset (with a core2duo cpu). Whenever I boot from the livecd (64bit), I'd just get a black screen and my monitor would turn off. Anybody have an idea?
[06:10] <shoot^> fellas, got a quick question (or two!)... 1) i just installed feisty on my laptop and when i click "network" or "computer" off the places menu, no window displays! any ideas? 2) i cant remember the name of the gconf option which prevents mounted devices appearing on your desktop?
[06:11] <logmein> Trying to change mplayer theme yet it only shows default option, under /usr/share/mplayer/Skin it says lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   11 2007-06-14 06:04 default -> clearplayer. I think that is some sort of symbolic link but I want it to link to the mini theme also in same directory.
[06:11] <soundray> yhan: you can set it in gconf-editor
[06:12] <Dr_willis> dfgas__,  master/slave shouldent matter to linux.
[06:12] <Dr_willis> dfgas__,  you may need to read up on the !fixgrub factoid
[06:15] <wlfR> Hi, is there by anychance a program which has ichat included GAIM messenger hasn't
[06:15] <Dr_willis> !fixgrub | dfgas__
[06:15] <ubotu> dfgas__: 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
[06:15] <logmein> any other mplayer users here?
[06:15] <yhan> soundray, what kind of settings ?
[06:15] <soundray> yhan: /apps/metacity/general/focus_new_windows
[06:15] <cjsoftuk_> Heya, I've got an issue that I can't actually install "samba" because it depends on "samba-common", and "samba-common" is newer than the required version for Samba!
[06:15] <logmein> wlfR: check pidgin see if it does
[06:15] <cjsoftuk_> Anyone know how to fix
[06:15] <soundray> cjsoftuk_: have you been mixing repositories?
[06:15] <dhamma> question: if i have /home mounted on its own partition, then reinstall ubuntu and mount /home on the same partition, and create new user 'foo', will it overwrite /home/foo if it already exists and has data on it?
[06:15] <soundray> dhamma: no
[06:15] <Dr_willis> dhamma,  i normally DONT mount /home during the isntall to the new partition, i do make the new users.. then after the first reboot. I edit the fstab to mount /home to the right place
[06:15] <Dr_willis> dhamma,  that way im extra safe
[06:15] <yhan> soundray, thanks
[06:15] <GizDrak> Has anyone here setup netatalk and samba side by side sharing the same volumes? and if so are there any problems to watch out for?
[06:15] <cjsoftuk_> soundray: No, this is a clean install
[06:15] <mon^rch> anyone suggest a tool to batch resize .jpg's please...
[06:15] <dhamma> Dr_willis, yeah, that seems sane...thanks
[06:15] <johnficca> hi is there a program for ubuntu that coverts mp3 to ogg?
[06:15] <Pici> mon^rch: Check out image magik
[06:15] <mon^rch> Pici: ty
[06:15] <bl[a] ckkky> can i add the main panel transparency some how??
[06:15] <soundray> cjsoftuk_: try 'sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get -f install' and see if the latter reports any errors
[06:15] <bl[a] ckkky> the whole panel.. not parts of it
[06:17] <soundray> mon^rch: use the mogrify tool from the imagemagick package
[06:17] <Pici> bl[a] ckkky: Right click the panel, Go to properties, the second tab has a section to set the transparency.
[06:17] <mon^rch> Pici: soundray: which gui for imagemagik?
[06:17] <Frogzoo> mon^rch: imagemagick ??
[06:18] <soundray> mon^rch: don't use a GUI. Use mogrify if you are batch-converting.
[06:18] <blackkky> Pici - it doesnt set all the panel.. just empty parts... i want to see on my desktop just the icons...
[06:18] <zhangxx> 
[06:18] <mon^rch> soundray: could you please give me an example syntax?
[06:18] <ZERO_SHIFT>   
[06:19] <Pici> blackkky: I'm not sure, sorry.
[06:20] <soundray> mon^rch: 'mogrify -scale 64x64 *.png' (careful, this overwrites the originals)
[06:21] <cjsoftuk_> soundray: only autoremovable packages
[06:21] <soundray> cjsoftuk_: 'apt-get install samba' again - same error?
[06:22] <GizDrak> So I installed my ATI drivers and got XSI working and installed beryl when I run Beryl I get a white screen I can rotate the cube but that is about it any ideas?
[06:22] <Dark_Angel_n00b> evening again all
[06:22] <cjsoftuk_> soundray: I get this:
[06:22] <cjsoftuk_> samba: Depends: samba-common (= 3.0.24-2ubuntu1) but 3.0.24-2ubuntu1.2 is to be installed
[06:22] <Dark_Angel_n00b> when anyone has a mo I would be grateful
[06:22] <blackkky> Pici 10x anyway
[06:22] <Dark_Angel_n00b> its printer and local lan related
[06:23] <nullkuhl> guys, i have a laptop that has 2 speakers and a subwoofer in it,, am currently using the very default drivers of fiesty (alsa).. but when i play something , sound comes out of the speakers only and the subwoofer is not working at all .. plz HELP
[06:23] <mon^rch> soundray: can I say... mogrify -scale 1024x* *.jpg
[06:23] <Dr_willis> a laptop with a subwoofer in it? must be a small subwoofer.
[06:24] <GizDrak> do they really put subs in laptops lol
[06:24] <soundray> mon^rch: if you want all widths to be 1024 and keep the x/y ratio, just use -scale 1024 (no x*). Backup the originals in case you get unexpected results.
[06:24] <soundray> Dr_willis: or a big laptop ;)
[06:25] <GizDrak> what is the laptop nullkuhl
[06:25] <mon^rch> soundray: ty so very much
[06:25] <bullgard4> How differ the kernel modules parport_pc and parport in their functions? modinfo is silent about parport.
[06:25] <cjsoftuk_> soundray, did you get my message about samba: Depends: samba-common (= 3.0.24-2ubuntu1) but 3.0.24-2ubuntu1.2 is to be installed
[06:25] <soundray> cjsoftuk_: yes, I'm multitasking
[06:25] <cjsoftuk_> soundray: OK
[06:25] <xl_peter> howto to use ubuntu as firewall?
[06:25] <nullkuhl> GizDrak: fujitsu siemens amilo xi 1546
[06:26] <Pici> !firewall | xl_peter
[06:26] <ubotu> xl_peter: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[06:26] <Dark_Angel_n00b> ok guys, I have a slight problem.
[06:26] <Peter> ...
[06:26] <DSBassetts> is it possible to use dos programs in ubuntu?
[06:26] <Dark_Angel_n00b> Decided to give linux a blast so installed it on a secondary hdd on the lunge system
[06:26] <soundray> cjsoftuk_: this is feisty, right?
[06:26] <Dark_Angel_n00b> server upstairs is setup to be the print server etc.
[06:27] <xl_peter> yeh, as a firewall/Gateway!
[06:27] <soundray> !enter | Dark_Angel_n00b
[06:27] <DSBassetts> like http://www.elderscrolls.com/downloads/downloads_games.htm
[06:27] <ubotu> Dark_Angel_n00b: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:27] <cjsoftuk_> soundray: Brand new feisty, just 4 days old.
[06:27] <mage> I wish I had an upstairs :(
[06:27] <Pici> DSBassetts: Try dosbox or dosemu
[06:27] <DSBassetts> Pici, thanks
[06:27] <soundray> cjsoftuk_: did 'sudo apt-get update' give you any errors?
[06:27] <tyler_d> ok... rhythmbox comes up asking for a password as soon as it opens, or attempts to open my media(over the network), the password prompt will not go away for the life of me.... ???
[06:27] <cjsoftuk_> soundray: No errors from update
[06:28] <Dark_Angel_n00b> ubotu: soz. Anyway, I have added a new printer and set it up to print over the network entered the hostname username and password etc. I even downloaded the ppd files for the printer and selected them via the given method. But it still does not seem to wish to print over the network
[06:28] <Dark_Angel_n00b> anyone with any ideas?
[06:28] <soundray> cjsoftuk_: when I run 'apt-cache showpkg samba' on my feisty system, it claims to depend on samba-common (5 3.0.24-2ubuntu1.2), not anything older. Can you try that command on yours and look at the Dependencies (don't paste please)

[06:29] <IdleOne> can someone tell me how to uninstall ubuntustudio? yes I did ask in #ubuntustudio but no response yet
[06:30] <AlestorJN> Hi everyone
[06:30] <tyler_d> command to delete a directory?
[06:31] <soundray> cjsoftuk_: when you run 'apt-cache policy samba', what does it say under "Candidate"?
[06:31] <AlestorJN> I need some help booting from the Ubuntu Live CD... it's giving me an error :S
[06:31] <soundray> cjsoftuk_: oops, I think I know what the problem is
[06:31] <cjsoftuk_> soundray: 3.0.24-2ubuntu1
[06:31] <cjsoftuk_> soundray: Do tell me!
[06:31] <soundray> cjsoftuk_: you need to enable security updates in sources.list
[06:32] <D2DChat> Hit3k, im about to install a dual windows xp and ubuntu setup and I'm wondering if I can specify a large partition size for Ubuntu later ?
[06:32] <cjsoftuk_> soundray: I have updates enabled
[06:32] <D2DChat> whoops, that last message was directed to anyone^
[06:32] <Chore-Boy> hey whats it mean when it says "failed to initiate HAL" when i log in?
[06:33] <soundray> cjsoftuk_: 'grep feisty-security /etc/apt/sources.list' -- any lines that don't start with # ?
[06:33] <_Andrew> AlestorJN: Whats the error?
[06:33] <shoot^> whenever i try and load the "computer" or "network" windows from the places menu in gnome, nothing happens: any ideas?
[06:33] <Huffameg> hi! i am unable to download more than one torrent at the time with Bitorrent. why is that? is there some way of fixing this?
[06:33] <cjsoftuk_> soundray: There are NO feisty-security lines
[06:33] <Chore-Boy> what is hal anyways?
[06:34] <tyler_d>  shoot^: what is the end result you are trying to acheive?
[06:34] <anipy> hello there. i need the passivetex package, but can't find it in standard repositories of ubuntu. AFAIK that package resides in debian oldstable. what is the URL for this repository to add?
[06:34] <RickSeymour> Any recommended IRC packages for Gnome? (Apart from Pidgin)
[06:34] <soundray> cjsoftuk_: let's add that now: 'echo deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu feisty-security main restricted | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list'
[06:34] <IdleOne> RickSeymour, Xchat,irssi,bitchX
[06:34] <soundray> cjsoftuk_: then 'sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get install samba'
[06:34] <D2DChat> does anyone know if you can add more partition space for Ubuntu after you've already installed it?
[06:35] <shoot^> tyler_d: simply to be able to view those respective windows. for some reason i click them, the windows are just not displayed at all...
[06:35] <IdleOne> RickSeymour, xchat is GUI others are text based search in synaptic for irc
[06:35] <DSBassetts> how can i extract a .exe, unzip, cabextract and unshield dont work
[06:35] <Dr_willis> D2DChat,  depending on what you are trying to do. YOu could easially add a new hard drive/partitions and just mount them somewhere for extra space the system can use.
[06:35] <soundray> D2DChat: you can in principle, but there are certain limitations with the old DOS partition table scheme.
[06:35] <Dr_willis> DSBassetts,  try wine whatever.exe
[06:35] <tyler_d>  shoot^: hrmmm... and if you browse to them manually.... ie type in smb://insert.ip.address.here
[06:36] <DSBassetts> Dr_willis, i do not want to install wine, is there not another way
[06:36] <SecrethX> hi.. bash: /usr/bin/python: No such file or directory << I keep getting this, now I might be a newbie, but even I know that aint good
[06:36] <Dr_willis> DSBassetts,  no idea. I gave you the best answer i know of.
[06:36] <DSBassetts> ok thanks
[06:36] <D2DChat> Dr_willis, I'm installing Ubuntu on this windows machine and I'm trying to free up more space for Ubuntu but I'm wondering if i free up more.. if i can give that space to Ubuntu
[06:36] <soundray> D2DChat: if you let ubuntu install itself in logical partitions (that's the default anyway), you can add new partitions in the free space later.
[06:36] <StrongArm__> anyone know a pdf to word converter  to install or use
[06:37] <D2DChat> soundray, I'm dual booting though..  I tried the guided option using large continous free space and it gave me an error
[06:37] <soundray> StrongArm__: kword has one built-in. It works well for filling in forms, but doesn't retain pixel-accuracy
[06:37] <GizDrak> DSBassetts: if it is just a compressed file 7-zip can open it and extract it
[06:37] <shoot^> tyler_d: where do i type that in? no window is drawn on screen for "computer" or for "network" so i simply cannot get near a location bar
[06:37] <Ar-Pharazon> Hi guys, I'm using gnome and can I make the "Show Desktop" icon just... uhh... Show the desktop?
[06:37] <SecrethX> hi.. bash: /usr/bin/python: No such file or directory << I keep getting this, now I might be a newbie, but even I know that aint good
[06:37] <shoot^> tyler_d: it is the same with my home directory....
[06:37] <shoot^> i click the links from the places menu, and nothing happens...
[06:37] <DSBassetts> GizDrak, it says its a self extracting .exe
[06:38] <tyler_d>  shoot^: were you attempting to install beryl?
[06:38] <GizDrak> DSBassetts: 7-zip can probably open it then give it a shoot
[06:38] <shoot^> tyler_d: beryl is installed...
[06:38] <soundray> D2DChat: in that case, I suggest you run gparted from the live CD first and resize the Windows partition to create more contiguous free space. Backup any important data on that disk first, because you never know when a fuse might blow...
[06:38] <tyler_d>  shoot^: ok, you need to enable compiz
[06:38] <SAngeli> hi, has anyone been running latest version of ubuntu on a pendrive?
[06:38] <soundray> !anyone | SAngeli
[06:38] <ubotu> SAngeli: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[06:39] <SAngeli> ok ok
[06:39] <D2DChat> soundray, thanks! I wonder why the docs don't mention this..
[06:39] <SAngeli> different style to ask a question
[06:39] <soundray> cjsoftuk_: still here?
[06:39] <tyler_d> shoot^: are you using nvidia?
[06:39] <shoot^> tyler_d: i get the same problem with compiz and metacity
[06:39] <Huffameg> is there some way of speeding up the booting process?
[06:39] <soundray> D2DChat: I'm sure they do... somewhere :)
[06:39] <shoot^> tyler_d: no, ati 9600
[06:39] <tyler_d> shoot^: DOH!!!
[06:39] <StrongArm__> how to search wether I have already installed a pkg or not?
[06:39] <AlestorJN> Oh hi Andrew sorry I was away lol I can't private message so I'll just talk out here
[06:39] <not_benh> hello all. I am new to ubuntu, though I have been running debian for many years. I was wondering if Ubuntu has a rolling release concept like debians testing?
[06:39] <DrkCodeman> how do i use dpkg and auto download and install the missing deps?
[06:40] <tyler_d> shoot^: and what about without beryl running.... prolly fine right?
[06:40] <soundray> Huffameg: disable unneeded services via System-Admin-Services
[06:40] <Dr_willis> not_benh,  every 6 mo - new release.
[06:40] <SAngeli> I am unable to retain the setting changes on my pen. I first installed ubuntu and after boot network does not work. I set it up and it works fine. I reboot and all is gone back to the original settings. What should I know?
[06:40] <soundray> StrongArm__: dpkg -l packagename
[06:40] <do1> no, every 6 month a new release comes
[06:40] <AlestorJN> Andrew: I keep getting this: /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
[06:40] <tyler_d> shoot^: what driver are you using?
[06:40] <sunnypies> anyone- whats the command to install flash in terminal???
[06:40] <shoot^> tyler_d: beryl starts fine, but the problem occurs even when i have selected metacity or compiz of beryl using beryl manager
[06:40] <SecrethX> hi.. bash: /usr/bin/python: No such file or directory << I keep getting this, now I might be a newbie, but even I know that aint good
[06:40] <not_benh> Dr_willis: are those releases frozen as far as packages go then?
[06:40] <soundray> StrongArm__: 'ii' at the beginning of the line means it's installed
[06:40] <soundray> StrongArm__: or 'apt-cache policy packagename'
[06:41] <shoot^> tyler_d: whatever came as default with feisty, tis a completely clean install
[06:41] <tyler_d> shoot^: have you tried forcing aixgl?
[06:41] <Dr_willis> not_benh,  basicially. The ubuntu pages detail the  specifics I belive
[06:41] <tyler_d> shoot^: upgrade your video card driver
[06:41] <tyler_d> shoot^: then try it with compiz
[06:41] <sunnypies> tyler_d: whats the command to install flash player in terminal?
[06:41] <not_benh> Dr_willis: cool I must have been digging in the wrong place on the Ubuntu site. Thanks for the info
[06:42] <shoot^> tyler_d: alright, use the restricted ati driver?
[06:42] <Dr_willis> not_benh,  thers security updates, and  depending on the repo using. may be other updates. but not major changes
[06:42] <SAngeli> perhaps is there something I forget to do ?
[06:42] <Ar-Pharazon> See the problem I'm having with "Show Desktop" is it seems to work as some sort of freaky dual desktop thing. I show desktop (minimizing all windows) do some stuff on the desktop, then restore a window manually, do some stuff in it, then click show desktop again expecting to minimize them all but instead they all get restored.
[06:42] <tyler_d> shoot^: yup
[06:42] <SAngeli> soundray, as you welcomed me, do you know anything about my question?
[06:42] <tyler_d> sunnypies: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[06:42] <soundray> SAngeli: what do you want to do?
[06:43] <tyler_d> !flash>sunnypies
[06:43] <SAngeli> soundray, I am unable to retain the setting changes on my pen. I first installed ubuntu and after boot network does not work. I set it up and it works fine. I reboot and all is gone back to the original settings. What should I know?
[06:43] <Chore-Boy> can anybody tell me what the problem might be when it says "failed to initiate HAL" when x loads
[06:43] <danshtr> hi all, looking for app to show tcp statistics for sessions.
[06:43] <DrkCodeman> hmm still no luck
[06:43] <DrkCodeman> how do i use dpkg and auto download and install the missing deps?
[06:43] <soundray> SAngeli: so you installed ubuntu *to* a pendrive?
[06:44] <DrkCodeman> trying to install AcetoneISO2_1.0-all.deb
[06:44] <SAngeli> yes I ddi
[06:44] <SAngeli> did
[06:44] <sunnypies> tyler_d: thanks
[06:44] <tyler_d> sunnypies: yw
[06:44] <GizDrak> SAngeli: was it a nice 16g pen driver :-)
[06:44] <soundray> SAngeli: have you followed any instructions to do this? Please post a link if you have.
[06:44] <meep> hi all
[06:45] <kharloss_> hi. i have a problem. i have a Sis900 lan card  but isn`t identified by my kubuntu .
[06:45] <SAngeli> GizDrak, no, just a simple and cheep 2GB with a lot of free space to use :-)
[06:45] <SAngeli> soundray, http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2007/02/12/usb-ubuntu-tutorial-for-linux-users/
[06:46] <GizDrak> SAngeli: well that is good because booting any pen drive above 4g is a pain :-/
[06:46] <SAngeli> only difference I used the latest release of ubuntu
[06:46] <SAngeli> GizDrak, I see
[06:47] <Huffameg> soundray: i'm not sure what kind of stuff i can disable.. :S
[06:47] <Ar-Pharazon> Is it a bug? Feature? Can I get rid of it at all? All I need is a "minimize everything" button which preferably does nothing if everything is already minimized.
[06:47] <meep> Me=N00b,  just a quick Q, in System Monitor->File Systems, should I be able to see Filesystem because I think that I used to be able to but I messed around with fstab to mount my windows drive
[06:47] <SAngeli> GizDrak, although I have been told it is not good to use a pendrive beause down the road it will break. True or false? I do not knwo.
[06:48] <Dr_willis> Ar-Pharazon,  some windowmanagers have a 'show desktop' icon ya can add to the panels. Not sure if gnome does however.
[06:48] <soundray> Huffameg: you can look up a short description for most services in a terminal with 'apt-cache show packagename' (packagename is the same as the service name in most cases)
[06:49] <GizDrak> SAngeli: this is true if you do not control the read/write to the pen drive you could wear it out quickly. flash drivers where never made for continues read/write access.
[06:49] <Ar-Pharazon> Dr_willis, it does, thing is it works as a toggle. Any way to fix that?
[06:49] <Dr_willis> Ar-Pharazon,  not sure why thats a problem.. fix what exactly?
[06:49] <soundray> SAngeli: the casper-rw system is designed to extend the lifetime of your pendrive as much as possible. Apparently, it is also the thing that isn't working in your setup.
[06:49] <kharloss> hi, i have a problem  i have a sis900 pci Lan card, but isn`t recognized by my kubuntu. if i "lspci" output contain an entry "01:07.0 Ethernet controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS]  SiS900 PCI Fast Et                        hernet (rev 02)
[06:49] <kharloss> any solution ?
[06:50] <DSBassetts> GizDrak, 7zip said /usr/bin/p7zip: Arena106.exe: unknown suffix -- ignored
[06:50] <Ar-Pharazon> Dr_willis, I'll just copy/paste it: See the problem I'm having with "Show Desktop" is it seems to work as some sort of freaky dual desktop thing. I show desktop (minimizing all windows) do some stuff on the desktop, then restore a window manually, do some stuff in it, then click show desktop again expecting to minimize them all but instead they all get restored.
[06:50] <SAngeli> soundray, what should I do in your openion? I am out of ideas. I can modify the  /etc/resolv.conf file but I miss the other eth0 file and do not know why the system at boot overrights it
[06:50] <soundray> SAngeli: I haven't used casper myself, so I don't know how to troubleshoot, but I would start by looking for any errors on the screen during the shutdown.
[06:51] <SAngeli> soundray, too bad. It seems I am not able to. Even if I hold F2
[06:51] <soundray> SAngeli: it may help to remove 'quiet splash' from the kernel boot options, if you have them.
[06:51] <SAngeli> I see
[06:51] <Dr_willis> Ar-Pharazon,  id say go ask in #gnome - you want show desktop to not function as a 'toggle' it seems.
[06:51] <Dr_willis> Ar-Pharazon,  i dont use it what way
[06:51] <SAngeli> soundray, it would be in grub, perhaps, in grub.conf?
[06:52] <Ar-Pharazon> Dr_willis Exactly. I'll go ask there then.
[06:52] <GizDrak> DSBassetts: one sec let me go download that and see what type of compression it may be using
[06:52] <soundray> SAngeli: well, the page you linked me to mentioned lilo, in which case you have to change /etc/lilo.conf (/boot/grub/menu.lst otherwise).
[06:52] <SAngeli> I see
[06:52] <SecrethX> I somehow managed to make python unavailable.. /usr/bin/python links to python2.5, but python2.5 links to python2.4 and I dont understand why.. :s
[06:52] <SAngeli> correct
[06:52] <SAngeli> thanks for now
[06:52] <SAngeli> soundray, thanks for now.
[06:53] <Huffameg> is there some way of doing so i can download more than one torrent at the time trough bittorrent
[06:53] <Huffameg> ??
[06:53] <SAngeli> GizDrak, thks ;-)
[06:53] <soundray> SAngeli: hope it helps.
[06:53] <meep> run more than one torrent program?
[06:53] <francois> Huffameg: use a different client maybe
[06:53] <Dr_willis> Huffameg,  could use an more advanced torrent client
[06:53] <Pici> Huffameg: The official Bittorent client only supports one torrent, use a different client.
[06:53] <GizDrak> np SAngeli
[06:54] <trekkme> i just tried to install ubuntu 7.04 on a asus a8v deluxe, 2 hdds attached to ata one to sata. the installer hangs as soon as it loads the partitioning tool. i tried the graphical live system and the textbased alternate, same error. i suppose its due to the partitioning tool not knowing what to do with my sata controller which by the way i dont wanna use for rhe ubunto partition, so i guess my question is how do i teach the installer sata or

[06:55] <AlestorJN> And apparently it's a common error...
[06:55] <meep> is there a newbie version of #ubuntu
[06:55] <uberushaximus> AlestorJN, did you burn it yourself?
[06:55] <PanzerMKZ> anyone using the old HP workstation vid cards? the FX6 out of a HP Visualize X-series?
[06:55] <Dr_willis> meep,  hard to make it any more newbie-friendly
[06:55] <Scunizi> trekkme, I've got 2 sata's and one ide and had issues with the alternate cd.  Tried the desktop and it worked fine.
[06:55] <Dr_willis> meep,  other then start cutting out features.
[06:55] <meep> don't burn to a cd-rw it doesnt work...
[06:55] <francois> meep: this is it,. lol
[06:56] <soundray> trekkme: how much RAM do you have?
[06:56] <nullspace> need some help getting a LV mounted to home in an existing system
[06:56] <francois> meep: this rooms answers just about any question, from basic to crazy advanced
[06:56] <trekkme> scunizi: desktop cd hangs too, when it loads the partitioning tool...
[06:56] <meep> Dr_willis:  i meant with less ppl and for ppl with more newbie questions
[06:56] <trekkme> 1gb ram
[06:56] <Dr_willis> meep,  you want a more Linux-Beginner-Friendly Channel you mean then. :)
[06:56] <soundray> trekkme: should be enough for anyone
[06:56] <josue______> trekkme: quer rock
[06:57] <meep> yeah :)
[06:57] <SecrethX> I somehow managed to make python unavailable.. /usr/bin/python links to python2.5, but python2.5 links to python2.4 and I dont understand why.. :s Someone please?
[06:57] <meep> i only started a few days ago
[06:57] <francois> meep: haha :), you have any newb questions ?
[06:57] <soundray> trekkme: what SATA chipset do you have?
[06:57] <Dr_willis> meep,  best to read, read, read and read some more.. and just hangin here for clarifications on what you dont understand.
[06:57] <PanzerMKZ> meep: don't worry
[06:57] <PanzerMKZ> just ask the queuestions all ready
[06:57] <Tarkus> hey, whats a good program to make a flyer? or an paper sized advertisement?
[06:57] <trekkme> via vt8237
[06:57] <soundray> Tarkus: oodraw from OpenOffice.org
[06:58] <meep> francois: should I be able to see my ubuntu drive in 'System monitor'
[06:58] <meep> i can only see my windows drive (dual boot)
[06:58] <francois> Tarkus: just use openoffice, if you want, and make the page landscape, create 3 columns, and that way you have a ready 3fold flyer
[06:58] <cjsoftuk_> soundray: I went for supper, and Thanks
[06:58] <Tarkus> soundray, does it come pre-installed with feisty? cause i dont see it in application>office..
[06:58] <soundray> meep:  do you mean on the Filesystems tab?
[06:58] <meep> yeah
[06:59] <soundray> cjsoftuk_: so it's worked then?
[06:59] <francois> meep: using gnome or kde ?
[06:59] <meep> gnome
[06:59] <SecrethX> I somehow managed to make python unavailable.. /usr/bin/python links to python2.5, but python2.5 links to python2.4 and I dont understand why.. :s Someone please?
[06:59] <AlestorJN> Hey can anyone help me with this error I get while booting from the Ubuntu Live CD? /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
[06:59] <dfgas_> Dr_willis: got it, thank you
[06:59] <soundray> meep: I would normally expect all mounted partitions to show on that tab.
[06:59] <meep> i've been changing 'fstab' and made my windows drive sda1
[06:59] <psusi> AlestorJN: that's not the error... scroll up
[06:59] <meep> with ntfs-3g
[06:59] <francois> meep: you manually renamed the drive ?
[07:00] <askand> When i write "syncevolution scheduleworld_1" I get this:"Segmentationfault (core dumped why??
[07:00] <GizDrak> DSBassetts: do this sudo aptitude install p7zip p7zip-full rar unrar this will install 7-zip and the rar and unrar stuff then rename the file to Arena106.rar should work now
[07:00] <cjsoftuk_> soundray: It's fine now
[07:00] <meep> :S dunno
[07:00] <cjsoftuk_> soundray: Thanks!
[07:00] <francois> meep: hahaha, no worries, when the drive came up, what name did it have in ntfs-3g ?
[07:00] <soundray> cjsoftuk_: yw. It's useful for me to know whether my advice has worked, so thank you, too.
[07:01] <cjsoftuk_> soundray: Why didn't Ubiquity add those lines?
[07:01] <meep> I'm dual booting, my windows drive is sda1 what should my ubuntu half be called
[07:01] <francois> francois: are you dual booting i'm guessing ? any problems accessing your drives ?
[07:01] <soundray> Tarkus: open any of the other OO.o programs and go through File-New-Drawing
[07:01] <PanzerMKZ> meep: also check out linux.org for some good online manuals
[07:01] <soundray> cjsoftuk_: I don't know
[07:01] <francois> meep: oh! same drive ?
[07:01] <cjsoftuk_> soundray: I think it's a bug
[07:01] <meep> /dev/sda1 /media/windowsDrive ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_GB.UTF-8 0 0
[07:01] <meep> tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults,ro 0 0
[07:01] <francois> meep: a different partition would only use different numbers, for the partitions, but sda for the same device
[07:01] <Pici> SecrethX: You could try reinstalling python.  `sudo aptitude reinstall python2.5`
[07:02] <meep> thats all i have in fstab
[07:02] <the_undefined> Install Q: When booting from CD (v7.04) and hitting Start or install Ubuntu my monitor signals are lost after the booting sequence. I hear the sound of the OS having booted but can't see anything - might be a hardware compatibility issue?
[07:02] <intrepidus> I've got Ubuntu server and LAMP installed, how do I allow other machines to connect to the mysql database? Preferably by IP, not just allow everyone
[07:02] <SecrethX> Pici, already done that, didnt help :s
[07:02] <DSBassetts> thanks GizDrak
[07:02] <meep> cool where do i find these numbers
[07:02] <GizDrak> Np DSBassetts
[07:02] <soundray> cjsoftuk_: yes -- I didn't have it on any of my nine or ten feisty installs so far, though.
[07:03] <cjsoftuk_> soundray: The bug, or those lines?
[07:03] <mortuis99> is there a list of command lind commands ?
[07:03] <francois> meep: gparted i beleive will show you all the partitions, but don't change anything with gparted otherwise you might break partitions
[07:03] <soundray> cjsoftuk_: the bug
[07:03] <Pici> !cli | mortuis99
[07:03] <ubotu> mortuis99: 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
[07:03] <Dark_Angel_n00b> Sorry back now
[07:03] <frojnd> does Bluez works with 2.0 adapteres?
[07:04] <meep> francois:  yeah my ext3 partition is called sda2
[07:04] <soundray> mortuis99: you can hit Tab on an empty command line and say yes
[07:04] <Pici> soundray: I dont think thats what hes looking for.
[07:04] <Dark_Angel_n00b> Does anyone know anything about linking ubuntu to a printer located on another system on the network under a windows box?
[07:04] <meep> francois: gparted says that on my ext3 partition it cant find the mountpoint
[07:04] <the_undefined> anybody?
[07:04] <francois> meep: ok, so there we go, sda1 is your windows, (pre-installed i figure), then swap maybe ?, then ubuntu on sda3
[07:05] <francois> meep: thats strange, but you can boot into ubuntu
[07:05] <francois> meep ?
[07:05] <frojnd> does Bluez works with 2.0 adapteres?
[07:05] <meep> francois: yeah it is slower than it was before
[07:05] <Pici> the_undefined: sounds like the xserver isnt running properly.  I'd try using the alternate install CD.
[07:05] <soundray> Pici: I'm just saying this as complementary information to yours. Sometimes it's useful to get a grasp of the range of things you can do first.
[07:05] <meep> francois:  i have sda3 - extended and sda5 - swap
[07:05] <Pici> !alternate | the_undefined
[07:05] <ubotu> the_undefined: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[07:05] <Dark_Angel_n00b> no-one?
[07:06] <meep> francois: i can still boot?  how do a give it a mountPoint
[07:06] <Pici> soundray: :)
[07:06] <francois> meep: ok, so all your partitions are set up properly,
[07:06] <the_undefined> Pici: thx
[07:06] <SecrethX> I somehow managed to make python unavailable.. /usr/bin/python links to python2.5, but python2.5 links to python2.4 and I dont understand why.. :s Someone please?
[07:06] <francois> meep: are you saying that grub can't find your ubuntu partition ?
[07:06] <meep> francois:  it works so i guess so
[07:06] <the_undefined> Pici: my Gfx card is not under the list of supported cards - will basic VGA work anyway?
[07:06] <meep> grub can
[07:06] <erUSUL> Dark_Angel_n00b: there are info in the wiki search "printer windows XP"
[07:06] <meep> francois: how can a change a mountPoint
[07:06] <francois> meep: ok, describe to me what happens when you boot your computer, all the way to when ubuntu is loaded
[07:07] <Pici> the_undefined: Should work fine.
[07:07] <soundray> SecrethX: you can probably fix this by running 'sudo apt-get --reinstall install' with the relevant python packages
[07:07] <Dark_Angel_n00b> erUSUL: the printer is running under windows server 2k3 and is set up as a print server
[07:07] <Elliot_M> hey is there a way to get a icon that tells mt  my computer tempreture
[07:07] <the_undefined> Pici: alright thx a lot
[07:07] <meep> francois: i get grub - two version of ubuntu (different kernels) and windows
[07:07] <meep> francois:  then it boots fine
[07:07] <Elliot_M> ne 1 ?
[07:07] <erUSUL> Dark_Angel_n00b: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPPrinter
[07:07] <Elliot_M> ????????????????????????????????????????????/
[07:07] <meep> francois: like it did before but slighlty slower
[07:08] <soundray> Elliot_M: don't spam please. Have some patience.
[07:08] <meep> francois: i'm running 7.04
[07:08] <francois> meep: can you access windows fine also ?
[07:08] <Elliot_M> im not spamming
[07:08] <erUSUL> Elliot_M: right click on panal choose add to panel
[07:08] <mortuis99> thanks for that
[07:08] <Pici> Elliot_M: I use sensors-applet.  Its in the ubuntu repositories.
[07:08] <DJ-_-> is it true that compiling a new kernel from kernel.org makes ubuntu much faster?
[07:08] <meep> francois:  yeah i installed fstab and basically erased fstab and wrote over it
[07:08] <the_undefined> Pici: will I be able to use the advanced cd as a life cd or only get to see ubuntu after an install?
[07:09] <meep> francois: I mean I installed ntfs-3g
[07:09] <SecrethX> soundray, sorry didnt work :s
[07:09] <soundray> Elliot_M: what you did is considered spamming by most of the relevant people here.
[07:09] <Pici> the_undefined: The Alternate CD is not a LiveCD, so it can only be used to install.
[07:09] <soundray> SecrethX: which packages did you try to reinstall?
[07:09] <SecrethX> soundray, just python2.5
[07:09] <Dark_Angel_n00b> erUSUL: Ill try step two in that but I have done the rest. Obviously username and password is more than guest due to it being a server
[07:09] <the_undefined> Pici: hm ok : /. thx
[07:09] <francois> meep: well you didn't need to erase fstab to mount your windows drive, if you needed to know, so know i guess we need to fix your fstab to what it was before...did you make a copy of it ?
[07:09] <soundray> SecrethX: what's the full path and name of that strange link?
[07:10] <meep> francois:  yeah i was a bit messy and ntfs-3g didnt work
[07:10] <fbc> I'm going to resize ubuntu's partition and install OSX86. Will I need to reinstall grub or can I just add a line to grub to point it to the partition?
[07:10] <meep> francois:  but i made a backup
[07:10] <SecrethX> soundray, all in /usr/bin, but python2.5 links back to python2.4 :S
[07:10] <francois> meep: ntfs-3g adds the drive mounting automatically,.
[07:10] <fbc> Any pointers anyone?
[07:10] <DJ-_-> is it true that compiling a new kernel from kernel.org makes ubuntu much faster....any ideas? or has anyone tried this already?
[07:10] <francois> meep: great. look into your backup, and copy the line with the sdax in it, where x is your linux partition number, so sda3 ? i think
[07:11] <meep> francois: yeah but it didnt work auto so i tried manually
[07:11] <Elliot_M> sorry soundray
[07:11] <francois> meep: did you get your windows drive to mount ?
[07:11] <soundray> Elliot_M: have the other guys' suggestions worked?
[07:12] <meep> francois: yeah
[07:12] <pha|con> DJ-_-: it may make it faster if you compile fewer drivers into the kernel. it would boot faster, obviously. as for speed of the actual system, that's kind of subjective.
[07:12] <Elliot_M> i installed it but i cnt find it
[07:12] <soundray> SecrethX: try the reinstall on the python2.5-minimal package
[07:12] <SecrethX> soundray, so, /usr/bin/python links to python2.4, when I do ln -f /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/python2.5, it does that, but then all of the sudden python2.5 links back to python2.4 :S
[07:13] <francois> meep: i think you just erased the line where it mounts your drive for ubuntu, so just copy that line over, save, and reboot, you should be fine, make sure that theres not 2 lines trying to mount the same partition, in case its already there
[07:13] <meep> francois: i've changed fstab to include sda2 and sda5
[07:13] <meep> francois: i'll reboot
[07:13] <francois> meep: ok,
[07:13] <francois> meep: gluck
[07:13] <meep> francois: thanks for you help, I reboot now
[07:13] <meep> francois: you the man
[07:14] <soundray> SecrethX: ln -f sets hard links. Not recommended. And, anyway, this shouldn't be necessary at all.
[07:14] <SecrethX> soundray, *slaps himself* i though -f standed for force.. :S
[07:14] <soundray> SecrethX: it does.
[07:14] <soundray> SecrethX: use -s for symlinks.
[07:14] <SecrethX> oh ok
[07:15] <Dark_Angel_n00b> erUSUL: ok I have tried following the instructions on the wiki page you linked but it has had no effect
[07:15] <Elliot_M> sensors-applet i installed but i cant find it
[07:15] <soundray> Elliot_M: did you right-click the panel, select Add to panel, and look through the available applets?
[07:16] <Elliot_M> yes
[07:16] <erUSUL> Dark_Angel_n00b: :( dunno never configured a shared printer myself
[07:16] <Pici> Elliot_M: I dont think the actual name of the applet is called sensors-applet.  I'd check, but I'm only in a termnial session here.
[07:16] <Elliot_M> o wait is it called harware monitor
[07:16] <erUSUL> Elliot_M: Alt + F2 and type sensors-applet
[07:16] <Elliot_M> o nvrmnd i found it
[07:17] <Elliot_M> Thank you guys
[07:17] <Dark_Angel_n00b> :( thats a shame. I am struggling here. Tried most things but am still at a loss.
[07:17] <Dark_Angel_n00b> out of interest how do I change my screen name on the fly ?

[07:23] <Cotton-Swab> no
[07:23] <Cotton-Swab> internel
[07:23] <soundray> SecrethX: perhaps removing python2.4-minimal will force it.

[07:28] <soundray> SecrethX: you could look at the prerm script /var/lib/dpkg/info/python2.4-minimal.prerm and find out why it fails
[07:29] <berent> guys there is a easier way to know where your jdk is
[07:29] <IPGHOST> i have a new laptop , it has windows vista licensed & have only 1 80GB partition , can i install Ubuntu without loosing Vista?
[07:29] <soundray> SecrethX: or be brutal and insert 'exit 0' as the second line, then redo the remove command.
[07:29] <berent> go to administration and open that coffee cup of java
[07:29] <mezziah> huh, why is the name of this channel '#ubuntu-unregged' although i joined #ubuntu? i dont get it
[07:29] <pha|con> Cotton-Swab: then you don't want to change the ownership to /var/www
[07:29] <unimatrix9> hello there , is there an big difference between 24 colour depth or 16 colour depth?
[07:30] <francois> anyone know where i can find kde or kubuntu panel applets ?
[07:30] <Backu> Cotton-Swab >> What do you mean? point a server to that dir? Are you meaning to use it with Apache2? Apache2 default Ubuntu config already uses it
[07:30] <soundray> IPGHOST: normally yes, but watch out for strange configurations with restore partitions.
[07:30] <berent> mezziah : you are unregistered
[07:30] <frojnd> does anyone here know if BLUEZ stack works with USB 2.0 adapters ????
[07:30] <nex^> Hi, I was /part
[07:30] <meep> francois:  just came back to tell that it worked cheers :)
[07:30] <soundray> !dualboot > IPGHOST, please read ubotu's private message
[07:30] <SecrethX> soundray, ok its remove, but python is still linking to python2.5
[07:30] <mezziah> berent: oh, right, how do i do that? i only know that im registered at nickserv
[07:30] <SecrethX> soundray, errrr python2.4
[07:30] <mtv> how do i find out what dev name my cdroms are associated with
[07:30] <unimatrix9> i get this error libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b
[07:30] <nickrud> berent, if you're using the ubuntu packaged ones, update-alternatives --list java
[07:30] <unimatrix9> so was thinking of changing screen colour depth
[07:31] <Cotton-Swab> Backu and pha|con, all I want to do is have an internel website, but I don't want to keep and having to use the cr command, so I want the /var/www dir to have full premisions
[07:31] <soundray> SecrethX: okay, now try the reinstall on python2.5-minimal
[07:31] <unimatrix9> any tips are welcome
[07:31] <pha|con> Cotton-Swab: if you're trying to set up a LAMP then leave /var/www as being owned by root.  if you want to edit things within that dir then use sudo, or sudo su until you're done working int that dir
[07:31] <berent> nickurd : oh yeah
[07:31] <Cotton-Swab> pha
[07:31] <Malfist> Is there a way to monitor what processes are using of your bandwidth?
[07:31] <Pici> mtv: `cat /etc/fstab` will give you a list of devices and mountpoints./
[07:31] <Ghost_Auk> Howdy
[07:31] <berent> nickurd : it should come somewhere more prominently in UI
[07:31] <Cotton-Swab> pha|con: but it is much easier just dragging files into the dir
[07:31] <pha|con> Cotton-Swab: if it's internal just make a directory that you can write to and link it from within /var/www
[07:31] <mezziah> hmm nevermind, it's not that bad at all
[07:31] <Cotton-Swab> ok
[07:31] <SecrethX> soundray, still the same
[07:32] <unimatrix9> hello there , is there an big difference between 24 colour depth or 16 colour depth, or is there an gui to set colour depth?
[07:32] <unimatrix9> in gnome
[07:32] <nickrud> berent, it's a pretty sophisticated system inherited from debian, but you're right, not real obvious
[07:32] <Cotton-Swab> I got it
[07:32] <Cotton-Swab> thnaks
[07:32] <soundray> SecrethX: sorry, I'm out of suggestions...
[07:32] <soundray> mtv: dmesg | grep -i cd.rom
[07:32] <GizDrak> unimatrix9: yes there is a pretty big difference I would use 24
[07:32] <SecrethX> soundray, I keep thinking, why does it always wants to be python2.4? :S Is it set to that somewhere?
[07:32] <unimatrix9> hmm, okey
[07:32] <berent> mezziah : try /msg nickserv identify <password>
[07:32] <unimatrix9> i get this error libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b
[07:33] <quadrata> anyone with experience setting up a virtual ip in feisty?
[07:33] <mezziah> berent: already done that.. odd
[07:33] <nickrud> berent, it you're curious, ls /etc/alternatives
[07:33] <Malfist> Is there a way or a program that I can use to monitor how my bandwidth is being used and by which processes/streams?
[07:33] <GizDrak> unimatrix9: you get that error when you change to 24 color depth?
[07:33] <KingJere> someone recomend a console based irc client I can use over an ssh connection. available via sudo aptitude install
[07:33] <yondie> quadrata,  do u want to make NAT?
[07:33] <soundray> SecrethX: I looked through all packages that are handled by the update-alternatives mechanism, but couldn't find anything python-related.
[07:33] <Pici> KingJere: Definitly irssi.
[07:33] <quadrata> yondie: no, just want to assign another ip to the same device
[07:33] <unimatrix9> no , this error is about that colour depth , wich it is set on right now..
[07:33] <fivetwentysix> anyone know of any texas hold em calculators?
[07:33] <quadrata> yondie: in fact, on a different subnet
[07:33] <SecrethX> soundray, sorry I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about :p
[07:34] <unimatrix9> so its set to 24 i guess
[07:34] <KingJere> Pici: simple to use? Little or no config?
[07:34] <unimatrix9> but not sure ...
[07:34] <francois> meep awsome
[07:34] <mtv> thank you Pici and soundray.  If i reboot and delete the portion of fstab that has my cdroms.  Will ubuntu write them correctly on reboot?
[07:34] <GizDrak> unimatrix9: let me look that error up
[07:34] <SecrethX> soundray, /usr/share/python/debian_defaults says that the default python should be 2.5
[07:34] <Pici> KingJere: Compared to BitchX, I think its simpler.
[07:34] <Pici> KingJere: Plus the irssi.org website has a nice quick-setup guide.
[07:34] <fbc_> Is there an upgrade path from ubuntu-generic to ubuntu-amd64? Should I just backup my home dir and reformat and install with the amd64 cd?

[07:35] <soundray> SecrethX: example: when you have multiple packages implementing java, you can activate one of them with 'sudo update-alternatives --config java'
[07:35] <unimatrix9> hmm
[07:35] <unimatrix9> to much paste...sorry
[07:35] <berent> ok
[07:35] <soundray> mtv: no, it won't. /etc/fstab won't be touched by the system once ubuntu is installed.
[07:36] <soundray> SecrethX: but python alternatives aren't handled that way.
[07:36] <GizDrak> unimatrix9: what is your video card?
[07:36] <SecrethX> soundray, so you know nothing?
[07:36] <Pici> ...
[07:36] <unimatrix9> ati mobile 16 mb
[07:36] <soundray> fbc_: all the packages are different, so you have to reinstall.
[07:36] <soundray> SecrethX: sorry.
[07:36] <SecrethX> soundray, np
[07:36] <Backu> fbc_ >> Yes, you have to force the changeover
[07:36] <yondie> quadrata,  ifconfig eth0:1 netmask xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx  ?
[07:37] <soundray> fbc_: there is little advantage to 64bit, though, unless you run numbercrunching or video encoding processes.

[07:37] <habeeb> I'm trying to setup WoW for Linux. Unfortunately, the downloader that WoW uses, doesn't let me control Upload rates, and I get some as high as 40kb/s (which is insanely high for my connection). Is there a way to restrict them throught Firestarter or something?
[07:37] <SecrethX> soundray, and what if I would rename python2.5 to python2.4?
[07:37] <unimatrix9> output of lspci
[07:37] <fbc_> soundray Backu , but i can still restore and use my home dir right or just my documents just in case?
[07:37] <quadrata> yondie: I was setting it up in /etc/network/interfaces - couldn't get it to stick on reboot - even with the auto line
[07:37] <mtv> soundray: i have had recent issues with my cdroms and swap screwing up on each reboot.  My cdroms used to be associated with /dev/hdc and hdd, and swap with hda5.  Those are longer listed in /dev.  Then i assocaited them with sdc, sdd, sda5.  sdc, and sdd no longer work, and sda5 is no longer present.  You have any idea what is going on
[07:37] <crdlb> unimatrix9, that warning is completely harmless
[07:38] <soundray> SecrethX: have you done a 'cd /usr/bin ; ln -sf python2.5 python'?
[07:38] <unimatrix9> ok
[07:38] <unimatrix9> thanks...
[07:38] <soundray> SecrethX: forgot sudo
[07:38] <yondie> quadrata,  i usually set it up manually
[07:38] <Pici> habeeb: You can try lauching the program using trickle, its a userspace bandwidth throttler.  Its in the repos.
[07:38] <soundray> fbc_: yes
[07:38] <quadrata> yondie: it survives a reboot?
[07:38] <Pici> habeeb: Its a console app.
[07:38] <habeeb> Pici: I see.
[07:38] <GizDrak> unimatrix9: yeah like crdlb said seems to have no harmful effects

[07:39] <stickerhappy> hello
[07:40] <stickerhappy> i've got some questions...  noobish questions
[07:40] <unimatrix9> would installing the commercial drivers solve the problem?
[07:40] <SecrethX> soundray, brb
[07:40] <crdlb> unimatrix9, there are no commercial drivers
[07:40] <crdlb> fglrx has never supported the radeon 7000
[07:40] <yondie> quadrata,  ifconfig eth0:1 vi.ip  netmask 255.255.255.0 ;
[07:40] <yondie> i don`t care much bout setting up the route
[07:40] <soundray> SecrethX: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26146/  -- this is what it looks like on my system
[07:41] <yondie> it should follow the true ip gateway
[07:41] <unimatrix9> i mean the ati drivers from their website
[07:41] <soundray> SecrethX: will be away for a while now, too
[07:41] <quadrata> yondie: i'll give that a shot
[07:41] <crdlb> unimatrix9, that's fglrx, It doesn't support your card
[07:41] <crdlb> and never has

[07:43] <Cotton-Swab> how do I fix that?
[07:43] <yondie> Adam4444, u should use the header with yer current kernel
[07:43] <berent> stickerhappy : yes it is okay
[07:44] <Cotton-Swab> http://paste.phail.org/index.php?show=12
[07:44] <yondie> remember to configure back the vmware server each time u update the kernel
[07:44] <Adam4444> yondie, I have tried all headers in /usr/src/, but vmware-player didn't like them.
[07:44] <stickerhappy> berent: i tried to boot from it, then it goes to the menu (start ubuntu, memory test, etc.)

[07:53] <DJ-_-> !antivirus
[07:53] <ubotu> antivirus is something you don't really need on Linux, unless you serve windows clients. ClamAV and aegis are decent linux virusscanners. Also see !linuxvirus
[07:53] <stickerhappy> berent: i dunno.  and then i choose Check CD for errors and then same result, black out
[07:54] <DJ-_-> !linuxvirus > DJ-_-
[07:54] <mage> got a virus on your linux box? :)
[07:54] <yondie> ClamAV sucks a hell
[07:54] <berent> some problem with the CD /DVD . do a fresh one
[07:54] <yondie> haha if u run it on windows dat is
[07:54] <DJ-_-> what do you give for linux?
[07:54] <DJ-_-> a preference?
[07:54] <rustalot> where can I get a java compiler?
[07:55] <yondie> gcc ?
[07:55] <DJ-_-> mage: na, but i have to meddle with windows ppl
[07:55] <jimmygoon> rustalot, from the sun :P
[07:55] <DJ-_-> mage: any AV you would recommend
[07:55] <mage> yondie: "javac" actually
[07:55] <jimmygoon> rustalot, sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk or something around there
[07:55] <berent> or else try burning a single file in the same media and see if its done. if its done then its okay. try again with the same else switch for another.
[07:55] <yondie> mage: sorry my bad
[07:55] <mage> but hey last time I used java it was blackdown-jdk
[07:56] <yondie> it`s sun-java6 rite now
[07:56] <jimmygoon> sudo update-alternatives --configure java or something like that to switch
[07:56] <yondie> i don`t like java very much
[07:56] <daquino> why is there no ruby gems ?

[07:56] <daquino> what ?
[07:56] <mage> DJ-_-: wut
[07:56] <daquino> gem is a pkg manager for ruby

[07:57] <yondie> DJ-_-, in my humble point of view
[07:57] <mage> well, this XP laptop has McAffee
[07:57] <DJ-_-> wols: not yet
[07:57] <yondie> windows virus won`t do a damn think on a linux system
[07:57] <yondie> and even if it does
[07:58] <mage> DJ-_-: have to execute a virus to be affected
[07:58] <yondie> it`s only on dat user level
[07:58] <sunspec> webmin is by default on port 10000
[07:58] <RedACE> how can I boot to command-line only without starting X?
[07:58] <sunspec> so go to browser and type a.b.c.d:10000
[07:58] <yondie> i mean if u can execute in some unimagineable way
[07:58] <Cotton-Swab> sunspec: thanks!!

[07:59] <amrosal> angel_moreno_94@@@
[07:59] <yondie> if u really virus paronia stuff i think there`s this called antivir
[07:59] <poop-> The new version looks nice i think
[07:59] <Cotton-Swab> ah
[07:59] <yondie> avira antivir
[07:59] <Cotton-Swab> sunspec: How do I set one?
[07:59] <Cotton-Swab> a username and pass

[08:01] <DJ-_-> mage yondie and wols: thx
[08:01] <yondie> sure think
[08:01] <poop-> Azul: I just like a simple mp3 interface and audacious does that job nicely. I just wanna set it as my default

[08:04] <cdavis> I have recently installed feisty on a new machine and I cannot apt-get install wine, claws-mail, etc because it cannot find them?  I have all software sources enabled though.  An I forgetting something?
[08:04] <Azul> poop-: welcome
[08:04] <failing_n00b> cdavis you typing sudo before apt-get?
[08:04] <andcor> cdavis: you have to enable the repositories in which such programs lie
[08:04] <fei_> how I can open port 22
[08:04] <cdavis> failing_n00b, yes I am
[08:04] <Cotton-Swab> were is the webmin conf file?
[08:04] <Doctor> mmmmm warm laptop on a rainy day
[08:05] <andcor> fei_: that depends on your router
[08:05] <failing_n00b> ok, just asking as I messed up on that just now
[08:05] <yondie> speaking bout router
[08:05] <cdavis> andcor, I have as according to the claws-email website.  I have all ther other sources enabled but it still cannot find wine
[08:05] <yondie> i am behind a router
[08:05] <yondie> how can i forward my apache  port?
[08:05] <andcor> fei_: have you tried connecting to it on local network ?
[08:05] <fei_> Doctor I type this sshd :p
[08:06] <Azul> cdavis: what error message do you get?
[08:06] <cdavis> I installed the 64bit version of ubuntu, could this caues the error?
[08:06] <fei_> below is the output sshd re-exec requires execution with an absolute path
[08:06] <pha|con> yondie: log in to your router and forward port 80 to your server's IP address
[08:06] <andcor> cdavis: I can recommend the sources list you can find at http://ubuntuguide.org
[08:06] <cdavis> Azul, No candidate version found for wine
[08:06] <andcor> cdavis: Yes it definatly could
[08:06] <fei_> andcor I tried to connect from my localhost it's working ok
[08:06] <fei_> I am behind my adsl modem
[08:07] <yondie> fei_, dat`s called behind a router
[08:07] <andcor> ok, no other computer you can connect from at local network
[08:07] <Azul> i don't know what that even means
[08:07] <Cotton-Swab> were is the webmin conf file?
[08:07] <RoC_MM> yondie, goto portforward.com
[08:07] <fei_> andcor, I am behind ADSL modem
[08:07] <pha|con> Cotton-Swab: /etc/apache2
[08:07] <ostannard> should be in /etc
[08:07] <DJ-_-> anyone here know why bluetooth may show Inquiry Failed:Connection Timed Out when a 'hcitool scan' is performed...even though my bluetooth device is identified and i can find it from the phone...I cant send files to it and neither can I scan from the pc as that error comes uo
[08:07] <DJ-_-> up*
[08:07] <GizDrak> cdavis: check out http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[08:07] <andcor> fei_: yes, but you have an router too ?
[08:07] <fei_> andcor should I open the port in ADSL modem?
[08:08] <Cotton-Swab> thanks pha|con
[08:08] <andcor> fei_: yes, if you can
[08:08] <fei_> andcor no just modem and pc , no router
[08:08] <pha|con> Cotton-Swab: np
[08:08] <Cotton-Swab> pha|con: I don't see a webmin conf, what is the name on it?
[08:08] <pha|con> Cotton-Swab: what do you mean by webmin?
[08:09] <Cotton-Swab> www.webmin.com
[08:09] <andcor> fei_: I can't tell you how you shall setup your network as I don't know exactly how you are connected to the internet
[08:09] <ubuntuEdgy> my cd tray just opended  by itself ?
[08:09] <fbc_> soundray Backu , but i can still restore and use my home dir right or just my documents just in case?
[08:09] <KennyTheGeek> webmin is a web interface, just like on normal routers
[08:09] <pha|con> Cotton-Swab: you'll have to use their forum or FAQs, never heard of it
[08:09] <RedACE> maybe you need a bigger tube?
[08:10] <soundray> fbc_: yes, only binaries are different. Data is the same.
[08:10] <KennyTheGeek> Cotton-Swab: the conf file should be in /etc/webmin
[08:10] <Cotton-Swab> ok, thanks
[08:10] <KennyTheGeek> np
[08:10] <fbc_> soundray, ok, cool.. I'll test it out. Is there a big performance difference?
[08:11] <soundray> fbc_: only when you run serious numbercrunching applications
[08:11] <hydrozen> is there some kind of standard as to where to keep php extensions?
[08:11] <Cotton-Swab> KennyTheGeek: What is the defualt username/pass for webmin?
[08:12] <fbc_> soundray, ok graphic intensive apps like opengl screensavers, or games, or crossover office?
[08:12] <KennyTheGeek> Cotton-Swab: any sudo-capable user. if your user can do sudo, then use your username and password
[08:12] <soundray> fbc_: some programs are actually faster on 32bit systems, because they are better optimized
[08:12] <Azul> hydrozen: ask in #php
[08:12] <Cotton-Swab> KennyTheGeek: No, I mean on the login screen for webmin(not using terminal)  localhost:1000
[08:12] <jimmygoon> Is there any way to connect a windows app into ubuntu, like X forwarding with ssh
[08:12] <jimmygoon> ?
[08:12] <soundray> fbc_: crossover office is 32bit. You'll only give yourself trouble if you try to run that in a 64bit environment.
[08:12] <aroo> Cotton-Swab: this isn't a webmin channel
[08:13] <pha|con> jimmygood:  install xming on the windows box and use putty as the ssh client
[08:13] <soundray> fbc_: games -- don't know. Screensavers -- what does it matter? ;)
[08:13] <KennyTheGeek> Cotton-Swab: yes, that is also what i meant. the login to webmin, is any user on the server that can do sudo. (or maybe also root...)
[08:13] <pha|con> jimmygoon: that's how i'm talking to you right now :)
[08:13] <Cotton-Swab> sorry aroo, KennyTheGeekL I got it thanks too you!
[08:13] <Cotton-Swab> thanks a lot
[08:13] <fei_> andcor, Ok I just check the configuration my ADSL modem, I just check my ip from www.whatismyipaddress.com and it shows ip address, the ip is the IP for my ADSL modem
[08:13] <KennyTheGeek> no problem
[08:13] <blackkky>  /whois execut3
[08:13] <jimmygoon> pha|con how do you mean?
[08:13] <Azul> is there an advantage of using a 64-bit, other than trying to get stuff working
[08:14] <Pici> Azul: I can't think of any advantage at this time.
[08:14] <RedACE> bigger EP
[08:14] <jimmygoon> pha|con, I want the reverse. I want to use a windows app, under ubuntu
[08:14] <pha|con> jimmygoon: make sure you have an ssh server set up on the linux box that can forward X11...then download Xming for windows...just do a google search for it
[08:14] <stickerhappy> question: wats the diff between the alternate version of the CD?
[08:14] <regius> Hi! The sound is crackling on my laptop. I have checked that i'm loading the right module. Any ids?
[08:14] <pha|con> jimmygoon: then download putty, and make sure X11 forwarding is on and login to your server.  you can then run linux apps on your windows desktop
[08:14] <GizDrak> speaking of 64-bit I am getting a dual quad-core intel xeon server in soon should I stick 64-bit on there or stay with 32-bit
[08:14] <soundray> Azul: some memory I/O and floating-point intensive applications run faster in 64bit.
[08:15] <andcor> fei_: but you havent opened the port 22 ?
[08:15] <jimmygoon> pha|con, I want the other way around
[08:15] <pha|con> windows apps on linux desktop?
[08:15] <jimmygoon> yes
[08:15] <soundray> !alternate > stickerhappy, please read the private message from ubotu
[08:15] <pha|con> wine
[08:15] <jimmygoon> ha, this doesn't run in wine sadly
[08:15] <Azul> !wine | jimmygoon
[08:15] <ubotu> jimmygoon: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[08:15] <jimmygoon> I'm using vmware, but its not the best in the world...
[08:16] <pha|con> jimmygoon: you're out of luck then it sounds like
[08:16] <fei_> andcor, so if I open port 22 it will go to my pc or stop on my modem ?
[08:16] <marysia> hi
[08:16] <jimmygoon> pha|con, gr, thats about what I expected, thanks
[08:16] <fei_> andcor sorry for my stupid question
[08:16] <pha|con> jimmygoon: np man....sorry i couldn't help out.
[08:16] <fbc_> GizDrak, I'm guessing you should go 64-bit just to put all that good hardware to good use.
[08:16] <kdubois> there is a free virtual machine out there. i forgot the name. can anyone think of what is it called?
[08:16] <jimmygoon> pha|con, its ok, I appreciate it
[08:16] <andcor> fei_: when you open port 22 you have to select an computer to which all data to that port shall be forwardet
[08:16] <nooga> i'm still getting an error while running Xserver -- /etc/X11/X is not executable
[08:16] <jimmygoon> kdubois, qemu
[08:17] <pha|con> GizDrak: if you do 64-bit you're not gonna be able to view most video
[08:17] <jimmygoon> kdubois, vmware server is "non-free" free
[08:17] <andcor> fei_: It's all ok, we all gotta learn sometime
[08:17] <nooga> it's after reinstallation of xserver
[08:17] <fbc_> I've found alot of scripts to get 32-bit flash and java workign in the 64-bit environment, so, I'm pretty sure I might make the switch, soon.
[08:17] <GizDrak> pha|con: will not need video it is a server :-)
[08:17] <fei_> andcor thanks, I'll check my ADSL modem configuration and try to open the port
[08:17] <Christopherl> Is there someway in Ubuntu 7.04 to undo settings in the system, like restorepoints?
[08:17] <GizDrak> fbc_: yeah that is what I am thinking
[08:17] <pha|con> GizDrak: awesome.  go for it, then. :)
[08:18] <psusi> Christopherl: no
[08:18] <soundray> Christopherl: no, you'll have to restore a backup
[08:18] <andcor> fei_: May I ask where your from and what internet provider you are using? That way I might be able to find a guide to you ?
[08:18] <Sakura-chan> Christopherl, try sudo tar -czvf restorepoint.tgz /etc/*
[08:18] <fbc_> GizDrak, but I don't know about the video.. Now I'm scared of making the switch again until I can find someone that will assure me that my vlc will still work and I will be able to view all my video.
[08:18] <kdubois> jimmygoon, thanks. I remembered. I was thinking of virtualbox. its pretty good. i like it better than vmware...
[08:18] <Sakura-chan> This is as close as you can get :)
[08:19] <obeleh> Can anyone help me install Glibc?
[08:19] <pha|con> fbc_: a lot of vid types won't work that use the win32 codecs
[08:19] <GizDrak> fbc_: I am running 64-bit on this laptop but I have not tired to run video
[08:19] <psusi> obeleh: it's already installed if you have a working system
[08:19] <fbc_> GizDrak, I'm just wondering it there will ever be a "right time" to switch or will there always be drawback to switching?
[08:19] <soundray> obeleh: what's the problem?
[08:19] <joy> join #ubuntu-pl
[08:19] <obeleh> Well i tried a simple hello world program but it messaged I didnt have stdio.h
[08:19] <GizDrak> fbc_: I did notice I could not get any of the win32 codecs to install :-/
[08:19] <Christopherl> How can I, from the grub, run Ubuntu as root?
[08:20] <fbc_> GizDrak,  I mean how long will I have to wait?
[08:20] <kruuli> anyone had the error "X11 error: BadAlloc"?
[08:20] <Cotton-Swab> how do you uninstall somthing in ubuntu?
[08:20] <soundray> !b-e | obeleh
[08:20] <ubotu> obeleh: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[08:20] <nooga> hmm
[08:20] <psusi> obeleh: did you install build-essential?
[08:20] <pha|con> fbc_: if you're just waiting for video you'll have to wait until there are some 64-bit video codecs in the MS world
[08:20] <soundray> Cotton-Swab: 'sudo apt-get remove packagename' or 'sudo apt-get --purge remove packagename'
[08:20] <GizDrak> fbc_: not sure. everything I need is here I do not watch much video on my computer
[08:20] <andcor> fbc_: there might be a time where you really can bennefit from shift to 64 bit, but right know you have to wait for the commercial software providers
[08:20] <kruuli> im pretty sure it has something to do with my shared memory on my unichrome .. not sure how to fix :/
[08:20] <cBau> Cotton-Swab: Either use Synaptic Package Manager or sudo apt-get remove packagename
[08:21] <Cotton-Swab> thanks
[08:21] <fbc_> GizDrak,  you spend money on good hardware you can't even use most of the time.
[08:21] <earthen> is anyone else haveing problems connecting to accounts with GAIM
[08:21] <obeleh> psusi PM
[08:21] <ds0n> fbc_, isnt technology great? lol ;p
[08:21] <Sakura-chan> kruuli: Have you tried this "memtest86" in your boot menu?
[08:21] <aroo> earthen, state your problem
[08:21] <soundray> !b-e > obeleh
[08:21] <fbc_> pha|con, are you serious, we have to wait on the windows developers?
[08:22] <XAngelus1> this test have end?? XD
[08:22] <Sakura-chan> fbc_ yes to see how we can do it better.
[08:22] <pha|con> fbc_: among others...any vendors that create codecs for windows
[08:22] <GizDrak> fbc_: it is pretty bad 64bit processors have been out for years and we are still not ready for them :-/
[08:22] <earthen> aroo, well i can't seem to connect to MSN, most of the time and when i do it's only when I disable all my accounts and avtivate only one at a time
[08:22] <soundray> GizDrak: the free software world is more than ready for them.
[08:22] <Sakura-chan> GizDrak I haven't noticed a sufficient performance boost installing AMD64 ubuntu
[08:22] <psusi> GizDrak: the open source community is quite ready for them.. I've been running 64bit ubuntu for years
[08:23] <pha|con> earthen: upgrade to pidgin and see if thr problem is still there
[08:23] <earthen> aroo, it will not connect to any account by just starting the program
[08:23] <DrSmall> What's the ubuntu-beginners channel?
[08:23] <aroo> earthen: sorry I don't know, I only connect to aim servers
[08:23] <ss7notifier> hello
[08:23] <aroo> earthen: never used msn
[08:23] <fbc_> GizDrak, that exactly what I'm talking about. It sux. I love my ubuntu box, I just hate not being able to utilize all of it, and still have everything work.
[08:23] <soundray> DrSmall: you can ask your beginner's question here.
[08:23] <DrSmall> What's the ubuntu-beginners channel?
[08:23] <obeleh> psusi ???
[08:23] <aroo> DrSmall: this is it
[08:23] <DrSmall> i want to get to the ubuntu beginners channel though
[08:23] <psusi> obeleh: ??
[08:23] <earthen> aroo, I don't like too my some of my friends and family use it
[08:23] <ss7notifier> can you hear me?
[08:24] <obeleh> check your PM
[08:24] <GizDrak> fdc_:  you could just dual boot 32bit and 64bit tell everything is out there for you
[08:24] <ubuntuEdgy> check this out guys so funny http://www.linkinn.com/_The_Chicken_says_to_the_Egg
[08:24] <ss7notifier> i don't know if i'm doing this correctly
[08:25] <soundray> ss7notifier: you're coming through faintly
[08:25] <earthen> aroo,if  upgrade to pidgin do i have to uninstall gaim first
[08:25] <t0m> hi someone knows a way on ubuntu to run applications like nmap trough a socks?
[08:25] <aroo> earthen: it would probably be a good idea
[08:25] <ss7notifier> what's the meaning?
[08:25] <nooga> heeelp
[08:25] <nooga> my xserver does not want to start!
[08:25] <ss7notifier> help me too
[08:25] <soundray> ss7notifier: just ask your question
[08:26] <aroo> nooga: you need to be descriptive
[08:26] <nooga> /etc/X11/X is not executable
[08:26] <nooga> it says when i start the sysetm
[08:26] <ss7notifier> how can i create a channel?
[08:26] <obeleh> psusi I sent you some messages do you see them?
[08:26] <soundray> nooga: where does it point? Check with ls -l /etc/X11/X
[08:26] <t0m> i tried tsocks but i dont really understand this programm
[08:26] <aroo> ss7notifier: just join a channel and it will be created if it hasn't already
[08:27] <yknott> ss7notifier: /join #channelnameyouwishtocreate
[08:27] <psusi> obeleh: private messages?  no.
[08:27] <nooga> /usr/bin/Xorg
[08:27] <ss7notifier> i did it, but the channel didn't apear at the list
[08:27] <fbc_> Is anyone dual-boot ubuntu and osx86?
[08:27] <NeXtDaY> hi all
[08:27] <soundray> nooga: what does 'ls -l /usr/bin/Xorg' give you?
[08:27] <tgm4883> ss7notifier, do you want to register a channel?
[08:27] <ss7notifier> yes
[08:27] <obeleh> hmmm... anyway all im trying to do is  a simple Printf
[08:28] <obeleh> Im used to borland builder but im trying to step over to Ubuntu
[08:28] <ss7notifier> tgm4883: yes
[08:28] <psusi> obeleh: install build-essential
[08:28] <nooga> soundray:  /etc/alternatives/Xorg
[08:28] <soundray> obeleh: go see your private messages
[08:28] <psusi> like the bot has been telling you in private message
[08:29] <soundray> nooga: try a 'sudo apt-get --reinstall xserver-xorg-core'
[08:29] <obeleh> k its installing now ty
[08:30] <GizDrak> /channellist
[08:30] <nooga> hmm, soundray and that points to /usr/bin/Xorg-air but i've uninstalled air because it was broken (dapper)
[08:31] <nooga> so i guess i'll need to repair that link and make it to point the right exec
[08:31] <nooga> but i dunno how
[08:31] <soundray> nooga: try a 'sudo apt-get --reinstall xserver-xorg-core'
[08:31] <NeXtDaY> soundray: I need your help: look at this .. I got it from the system log file : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26148/
[08:32] <soundray> NeXtDaY: please ask the channel, I can't help you right now.
[08:32] <NeXtDaY> soundray: my computer goes down every 30 minutes. it is annoying me. how do I fix that problem, please?
[08:32] <nooga> soundray: apt complains that there is no such thing like --reinstall
[08:32] <aroo> NeXtDaY: it says your system is overheating
[08:32] <nooga> but xserver-xorg-core is installed
[08:32] <NeXtDaY> I need  help: look at this .. I got it from the system log file : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26148/
[08:32] <philth> How can I make cron launch a GUI application
[08:32] <soundray> nooga: sorry 'sudo apt-get --reinstall install xserver-xorg-core'
[08:32] <NeXtDaY> aroo: yes.. I know. and because of that , my computer goes down each 30 minutes
[08:33] <aroo> NeXtDaY: well then you need to replace cooling parts if it really is overheating
[08:33] <NeXtDaY> how come no one knows the solution to this issue?
[08:33] <aroo> NeXtDaY: that isn't an Ubuntu issue unless it's an incorrect reading
[08:33] <joetheodd> Is Seveas alive?
[08:33] <Cotton-Swab> KennyTheGeek: do you know anything about vhcs
[08:33] <NeXtDaY> aroo: I was running XP pro in this pc and it was going just fine until I installed Ubuntu. !!@
[08:34] <bakka> hey guys, quick question please
[08:34] <bakka> you know how the running programs stretch to fill the panel, is there a way to make them not stretch?
[08:34] <aroo> NeXtDaY: If you're dual booting you can boot into windows and test processor temperatures
[08:34] <hwilde> NeXtDaY, that syslog indicates your motherboard is overheating.
[08:34] <nooga> soundray: done, what now? :>
[08:34] <soundray> nooga: check if it works
[08:34] <NeXtDaY> hwilde: yes .. any suggestions, please?
[08:34] <XAngelus1> NextDay i must think it is for the graphic card
[08:34] <yknott> nooga: sudo aptitude reinstall xserver-xorg-core   then
[08:34] <hwilde> NeXtDaY, get more fans?
[08:35] <NeXtDaY> aroo: I did. I am in dual boot and when I start XP it doesn't go down
[08:35] <KennyTheGeek> Cotton-Swap: no
[08:35] <hwilde> NeXtDaY, XP is stupid it would let your motherboard burn up
[08:35] <NeXtDaY> hwilde yeah. but isn't this a system problem?
[08:35] <aroo> NeXtDaY: either change the cooling system or monitor the temperatures in both Windows and Ubuntu and compare
[08:35] <aroo> NeXtDaY: you have plenty of options but you seem like you don't want to try
[08:35] <NeXtDaY> hwilde: I agree with one thing .. stupid XP.
[08:35] <aroo> NeXtDaY: there is no command that is going to fix your overheating
[08:35] <NeXtDaY> aroo: ok then. new fan right ? :)
[08:35] <SpawN> how to lunch an shortcut with some command option
[08:35] <hwilde> NeXtDaY, if you don't care about that error then you can disable ACPI and it will let your system meltdown.
[08:36] <yknott> NeXtDaY: shuts to prevent overheating?
[08:36] <soundray> nooga: working?
[08:36] <SpawN> oh
[08:36] <SpawN> i forget about google
[08:36] <Go2Fast> can someone help me with a networking issue I've been having? I've got 6.06 LTS server running on a sun X2100M2 server in 64bit.
[08:36] <soundray> nooga: I'll be away for a while now
[08:36] <aroo> NeXtDaY: you need to find out what is overheating, the processor, motherboard, or something else and then replace cooling pieces appropriately
[08:36] <NeXtDaY> yknott: that is far a good solution until I get a new fan
[08:36] <blackest> any idea why compiler can't see a header file
[08:36] <hwilde> Go2Fast, what is the question
[08:36] <NeXtDaY> aroo Yep.
[08:36] <Go2Fast> going to take me a minute to type it out bear wiht me :)
[08:36] <bakka> i have a question please.
[08:36] <bakka> you know how the running programs stretch to fill the panel, is there a way to make them not stretch?
[08:36] <Sakura-chan> Can someone please help me with configuring xchat?
[08:36] <nooga> soundray: you're great! it works
[08:37] <GizDrak> soundray is a busy man in here
[08:37] <aroo> Sakura-chan: what do you want to configure in particular
[08:37] <obeleh> psusi it didnt help
[08:37] <NeXtDaY> hwilde hwilde aroo. thanks alot .. I will do .
[08:37] <nooga> GizDrak: ubuntu master hacker :D
[08:37] <Sakura-chan> I'd really like to remove these ... "XXX has joined" and "xxx has quit" messages they're messing up the whole channel
[08:37] <psusi> obeleh: what's the trouble now?
[08:37] <NeXtDaY> fine what is overheating !!
[08:37] <NeXtDaY> find*
[08:37] <aroo> Sakura-chan: there should be an option in Edit-Preferences to turn off join/part messages
[08:38] <hwilde> NeXtDaY, your motherboard - more specifically your processor.
[08:38] <bsdunix> Sakura-chan: what chat client are you using?
[08:38] <GizDrak> nooga: always good to have one around
[08:38] <nooga> yup
[08:38] <NeXtDaY> hwilde I will remember that. thanks :)
[08:38] <nooga> bbl, reboot
[08:38] <Go2Fast> the server was running for a while and i shut it down to install it in a cabinet.  rebooted and everything looked okay and started up okay.  howevever, the network wasn't working. i could pin glocalhost and the local network IP configured on eth0. i could not ping the gateway configd in the interfaces file. restarted networking, restarted server, nada.  reconfigured it on another interface, eth2 and it worked until I rebooted
[08:38] <bsdunix> ha ha
[08:38] <pha|con> speaking of which, how do you turn off join/part messages in bitchx?
[08:38] <bsdunix> nice flood
[08:38] <Gerrit> How can I get a list of installed packages by install date?
[08:38] <obeleh> well when I do  gcc -c test.c     it creates  a file called test.o
[08:38] <obeleh> But if I run it...
[08:38] <Go2Fast> now i have tried configuring the itnerfaces config file for all interfaces, rebooted, restarted networking, etc. and it can't do anything
[08:38] <obeleh> I get a syntax error
[08:38] <hwilde> Go2Fast, your interfaces are probably flip flopping... hold on
[08:39] <Go2Fast> i've tried manually configuring other IPs and using ifconfig to confg the interface too
[08:39] <Go2Fast> ok
[08:39] <Go2Fast> I did find out that /etc/hosts had a different IP than /etc/network/interfaces for the server, but I corrected that and rebooted
[08:39] <GizDrak> I think I am going to reinstall ubuntu be back later
[08:39] <hwilde> Go2Fast, you should force the interface names by MAC Address in /etc/iftab
[08:39] <bsdunix> does ibm still manufacture ppc procs?
[08:40] <bakka> hello, can someone help me out please?
[08:40] <earthen> aroo, do you know if there are sources address for the Pidgin packages
[08:40] <hwilde> !ask | bakka
[08:40] <ubotu> bakka: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:40] <wols> bakka: yes
[08:40] <bsdunix> bakka - just state nature of problem
[08:40] <tgm4883> bsdunix, they do, but im not sure if they produce consume ones
[08:40] <wols> bsdunix: yes
[08:40] <bakka> you know how the running programs stretch to fill the panel, is there a way to make them not stretch?
[08:40] <tgm4883> bakka, not if you don't ask your question
[08:40] <bsdunix> tgm4883 thanx
[08:40] <NeXtDaY> another problem is: I can't write within my language in pidgin..  I already installed the language support file . restarted the system but yet I am still not able to write .. any suggestions, please?
[08:40] <bakka> yeah i've asked it three times already and nobody answered me :)
[08:40] <bsdunix> you, too wols
[08:41] <wols> bsdunix: they still produce the PPC970 for example
[08:41] <meep> hi guys i've got a x-shell script program (wolfET.run)  how do I install it?  thanks in advance
[08:41] <wols> bsdunix: and POWER6 was just announced afaik
[08:41] <Jared> my update manager keeps freezing up :(
[08:41] <alecjw> meep, chmod +x wolfET.run ; ./wolfET.run
[08:41] <erUSUL> meep: sudo sh *.run &
[08:41] <Jared> after I click install....any ideas
[08:41] <bakka> hwilde,  wobx  bsdunix  tgm4883 :  you know how the running programs stretch to fill the panel, is there a way to make them not stretch?
[08:41] <bsdunix> it broke my heart to see apple switch to intel stating that ppc just wasn up to snuff on performance. same occurred with my favorite; alpha
[08:41] <meep> cheers
[08:41] <Go2Fast> hwilde: any ideas ther than teh iftab ?  i've got three of these runnign centos without a hitch
[08:42] <alecjw> meep, actually make that sudo chmod +x wolfET.run ; sudo ./wolfET.run
[08:42] <wols> bsdunix: to be expected. the volume just wasn't there
[08:42] <tgm4883> bakka, right click on the panel and uncheck expand
[08:42] <aroo> earthen: no sorry, try googling pidgin and go to their page
[08:42] <meep> ok ta
[08:42] <bsdunix> bakka: seems you may be referring to the taskbar at bottom of kde. am i right?
[08:42] <bakka> tgm4883, that will un-expand the whole panel and still keep the program tabs stretched
[08:42] <Cotton-Swab> how can I install something that looks like this: http://img116.imageshack.us/img116/5056/screenshotlt4.png
[08:43] <bakka> bsdunix, nopo, im on gnome
[08:43] <trelayne> hi all, I'm at a hotspot and for some reason, when I run wireshark, I see other peoples traffic on the network (in the clear)....anyone know what is going on?
[08:43] <earthen> aroo, yeah thats what i've been doing but not finding anything thanks anyway
[08:43] <bsdunix> apt-getting gnome as we speak
[08:43] <tgm4883> bakka, ah, hmm, well mine don't stretch
[08:43] <meep> alecjw: is there a website/resource where I can look this up, cos i could find it on google
[08:43] <bsdunix> i had a girlfriend like that once
[08:43] <meep> *could not
[08:43] <Go2Fast> hwilde: any ideas ther than teh iftab ?  i've got three of these runnign centos without a hitch
[08:44] <Cotton-Swab> how can I install something that looks like this: http://img116.imageshack.us/img116/5056/screenshotlt4.png
[08:44] <alecjw> meep, thats just generally what you have to do with installation scripts: chmod it to excecutable and run it
[08:44] <aroo> Cotton-Swab: what do you mean looks like that? a file browser?
[08:44] <tgm4883> Cotton-Swab, you mean a different theme?
[08:44] <ostannard> trelayne: turn off the "capture in promiscuous mode" option
[08:44] <flami> Hi , when i try to set margins in KDE for my printer they are not saved or used . anyway to fix that ?
[08:44] <Cotton-Swab> no no
[08:44] <flami> they are  0 :/
[08:44] <yknott> Cotton-Swab: try the xfce window manager? aptitude install xubuntu-desktop   for example
[08:45] <Cotton-Swab> how do I install vhcs
[08:45] <bsdunix> by the way; ubuntu runs great on my ibm intellistation zpro dual 866 xeon
[08:45] <Cotton-Swab> the control panel
[08:45] <cdavis> is my only option of running 32-bit programs on my 64bit feisty install to use run the 32-bit app in a chroot environment?
[08:45] <tgm4883> Cotton-Swab, I don't see a control panel on there
[08:45] <Cotton-Swab> tgm4883: you know cpanel?
[08:45] <dromer> hi all, somehow I can't get nvidia-settings to twinview to my 2nd monitor. It definetly sees the monitor and it's type/settings, but when I extend, or do cinerama, it does nothing. when I put the monitor to another port it works
[08:45] <Cotton-Swab> it's liek that
[08:45] <NeXtDaY> again: I can't write within my language in pidgin..  I already installed the language support file . restarted the system but yet I am still not able to write .. any suggestions, please?  sorry for repeating!
[08:45] <yknott> cdavis: no
[08:45] <aroo> Cotton-Swab: sorry I just don't know what you're talking about
[08:46] <aroo> Cotton-Swab: that looks like a default gnome environment to me
[08:46] <Cotton-Swab> aroo: do you know what plesk or cpanel is?
[08:46] <cdavis> yknott, can you tell me my other options?  I want to install claws-mail but there is no 64bit version available, I don't really need it to be 64bit so installing the i386 arch is fine
[08:46] <joetheodd> After upgrading from breezy to dapper, I'm having X problems. How do I fix it?
[08:46] <NeXtDaY> Cotton-Swab: do you mean .deb files?
[08:46] <aroo> Cotton-Swab: no
[08:46] <cdavis> joetheodd, that is very vague
[08:46] <Cotton-Swab> NeXtDaY: no, I just want to install what I downlaoded
[08:46] <Cotton-Swab> those are files I downloaded
[08:46] <Go2Fast> now i have tried configuring the itnerfaces config file for all interfaces, rebooted, restarted networking, etc. and it can't do anything
[08:46] <bsdunix> dromer; i think this issue of yours is fixed in your xorg.conf file; set up a monitor0 and a monitor1 as well as screen0 and screen1
[08:46] <Cotton-Swab> all I want to do is install the,m
[08:46] <yknott> cdavis: depending on what it is, it may work to force-archictecture when installing the i386 deb
[08:46] <joetheodd> cdavis: Like, "X server failed to load" or something like that. Just a sec, I'm booting right now.
[08:46] <aroo> Cotton-Swab: dpkg -i package.deb
[08:46] <NeXtDaY> Cotton-Swab: ah. sorry can't help
[08:47] <Cotton-Swab> aroo: it isn't a .deb
[08:47] <Go2Fast> my problem: the server was running for a while and i shut it down to install it in a cabinet.  rebooted and everything looked okay and started up okay.  howevever, the network wasn't working. i could pin glocalhost and the local network IP configured on eth0. i could not ping the gateway configd in the interfaces file. restarted networking, restarted server, nada.  reconfigured it on another interface, eth2 and it worked until I reboot
[08:47] <aroo> Cotton-Swab: compiling from source?
[08:47] <Cotton-Swab> yea
[08:47] <trelayne> ostannard, I tried that  before but turning off promiscuous mode doesn't seem to change anything... it is rather scary to see so much traffic with cookies, MSN etc..
[08:47] <Cotton-Swab> i guess
[08:47] <tgm4883> Cotton-Swab, why is a .deb not showing up as a .deb?
[08:47] <yknott> Go2Fast: is there a strange gateway setting? you could manually enter that in /etc/network/interfaces
[08:47] <dromer> bsdunix: instead of using the nvidia-settings I just set it up in there? and enable the twinviem settings?
[08:47] <ubuntuEdgy> omg http://cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/screenshots.html
[08:47] <bsdunix> Go2Fast: are you using DHCP on this interface?
[08:48] <Cotton-Swab> tgm4883: is it a .deb?
[08:48] <dromer> bsdunix: what about ServerLayout?
[08:48] <Go2Fast> yknott: the gateway is config'd in the interfaces file
[08:48] <joetheodd> cdavis: Failed to start the X server. It is likely that it is not set up correctly. Would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the problem?
[08:48] <Go2Fast> bsdnix: its static
[08:48] <bsdunix> dromer use vi and edit file manually per some how-to tutorial
[08:48] <cdavis> joetheodd, was do the last several lines of the output indicate the problem lies with?
[08:48] <dromer> bsdunix: the howto on ubuntuforums didn't work for me
[08:49] <joetheodd> cdavis: Failed to load kbd and mouse modules. Hm.
[08:49] <ostannard> trelayne: that is just the way wifi works: you cant just send radio waves to one computer. but you could probably set up a filter that only shows stuff going to or from your computer
[08:49] <White-Demon> anyone can help? my screen is like zoomed in, how can i make it return normal?
[08:49] <hwilde> Go2Fast, your interface names are switching.  you have to force it in /etc/iftab
[08:49] <aroo> joetheodd: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:49] <bsdunix> dromer; hmm. networking is not ubuntu specific. try gooleing for something
[08:49] <bsdunix> s googleing
[08:49] <tgm4883> well, being that the folder you downloaded ends in a .deb, you either renamed it or it is supposed to be a .deb
[08:49] <dromer> bsdunix: networking?
[08:49] <bsdunix> sorry... xorg
[08:50] <Go2Fast> ok, will go down to the datacenter and try that. thanks
[08:50] <dromer> haha
[08:50] <aroo> White-Demon: a resolution problem?
[08:50] <bsdunix> brain fart
[08:50] <Cotton-Swab> tgm4883 aroo NeXtDaY, I downlaoded files of the internet, and what you see in the screens shot are those files, how can I install what I downlaoded>?
[08:50] <aroo> White-Demon: or literally zoomed in?
[08:50] <aroo> Cotton-Swab: is it a deb or not
[08:50] <cdavis> joetheodd, might want to try to reconfigure the conf file altogether.  Not sure but probably a command to help you do so
[08:50] <dromer> bsdunix: hmm, I know, but I haven't found anything else that works
[08:50] <Cotton-Swab> aroo: I don't know
[08:50] <trelayne> ostannard,  ok I understand then, it's not that my machine is forwarding packets, (and that is why firestarter does not pickup the traffic)...phew
[08:50] <White-Demon> aroo, just went out from a program that made it zoomed in, i don't know what to do, i think the second choice tho
[08:50] <ublender_> Anyone know of a good video encoder gui for in ubuntu?
[08:50] <ublender_> other than avidemux
[08:50] <aroo> Cotton-Swab: should be instructions from wherever you downloaded it, but it probably involves ./configure, make, sudo make install
[08:51] <trelayne> man, wireless is so friggin insecure..
[08:51] <aroo> White-Demon: what program was it
[08:51] <bsdunix> dromer somebody out there has posted in some forum (linuxforums.org?) a xinerama layout
[08:51] <cdavis> yknott, anyway to use force-archictecture with apt-get?  Or do I need to download the deb and try manuall with dpkg?
[08:51] <Cotton-Swab> aroo: how can terminal install it?
[08:51] <aroo> trelayne: you can ssh to a proxy
[08:51] <Flawless> is there a thunderbird2 feisty package in backports somewhere?
[08:51] <trelayne> aroo that's what I do... with SOCKS
[08:51] <aroo> Cotton-Swab: I don't even know what the application is
[08:51] <Cotton-Swab> aroo: http://vhcs.net/new/modules/phpwiki/index.php/Installation%20Ubuntu%20%28en%29 those are the instructions, I dont' understand 1 word ofit
[08:51] <aroo> trelayne: :)
[08:51] <yknott> cdavis: yeah something like dpkg --force-architecture -i package.deb
[08:51] <dromer> bsdunix: ok, I'm searching :)
[08:51] <NeXtDaY> when I go to System -> Administration -> Language Support I get this error " It is impossible to install or remove any software. Please use the package manager "Synaptic" or run "sudo apt-get install -f" in a terminal to fix this issue at first."
[08:52] <White-Demon> aroo, just deleted it, it happens when i run Starcraft game too
[08:52] <joetheodd> cdavis: I'm using the i810 chipset and it doesn't have any memory. If I want to give 8MB to the video card, I type 8192, right?
[08:52] <yknott> cdavis: though any 32bit libraries needed by that program should be installed too
[08:52] <dromer> bsdunix: but I don't really want xinerama (two separate x-servers right?)
[08:52] <aroo> White-Demon: I had that happen with Starcraft as well, and it's because that game only runs at 640x480 and X wasn't resetting my resolution
[08:52] <aroo> White-Demon: I had to reboot
[08:52] <NeXtDaY> what caused this problem?
[08:52] <aroo> White-Demon: have you rebooted?
[08:52] <ubuntuEdgy> any one have ubuntu studio installed ?
[08:52] <White-Demon> aroo, not yet ^^ and i can't. isn't there any solution for this?
[08:52] <bsdunix> dromer; i think it is the nomer for dual-head
[08:52] <trelayne> but I wonder whether I should tell the people around me that their "private conversations" are very public... so much harm can be done ... why can I see there traffic though? I though WEP is supposed to encrypt traffic..although it IS weak?
[08:52] <dromer> ubuntuEdgy: not yet, maybe if I get another pc to mess with
[08:53] <cdavis> yknott, thanks, I will see what I can do
[08:53] <Flawless> ok, I found it
[08:53] <cdavis> joetheodd, I have no idea on that, never had to deal with it
[08:53] <B-nday> hi to everyone of you, being free using Ubuntu
[08:53] <aroo> White-Demon: you can try restarting the X session by pressing CTRL+BACKSPACE (be warned this will kill all apps and bring you to a login)
[08:53] <Cotton-Swab> http://vhcs.net/new/modules/phpwiki/index.php/Installation%20Ubuntu%20%28en%29 those are the instructions, I dont' understand 1 word ofit
[08:53] <B-nday> :)
[08:53] <Cotton-Swab> how do I perform what it is asking?
[08:53] <aroo> White-Demon: ctlr+alt+backspace, rather
[08:53] <ubuntuEdgy> dromer: u can have it on the same pc ?
[08:53] <dromer> bsdunix: I'm going te try twinview (spread one x-server over two screens) , I got it working on my other pc with a tv-attached, but it's a total different config since it uses composite and stuff
[08:53] <cdavis> joetheodd, dpkg-reconfigure [packagename]  should help you figure out how to reconfigure X
[08:53] <aroo> Cotton-Swab: I don't have time to read the instructions for you, sorry
[08:53] <ostannard> trelayne: the network is probably not set up to use encryption
[08:54] <dromer> ubuntuEdgy: yes I know, but I don't have any partitions left :p
[08:54] <White-Demon> aroo, i don't wanna face the log-in screen, i don't know the password ^^
[08:54] <snake> hi all. i do not have the admin button in kde theme manager in feisty. can anyone help me with this ? its so strange
[08:54] <ubuntuEdgy> how do i install it  sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio
[08:54] <aroo> White-Demon: are you using gnome or kde
[08:54] <jschmidt> Hello. Can someone point me to some documentation about how to 'teach' APT that a dependency is available when you install it from a non debian package?
[08:54] <trelayne> ok thanks for your help!
[08:54] <White-Demon> aroo, Gnome
[08:54] <winst0n> hi
[08:54] <NeXtDaY> Cotton-Swab: those instructions are in English and they already giving you how to install. you should read ;)
[08:55] <aroo> White-Demon: try going to display settings in system-preferences and changing the resolution
[08:55] <aroo> White-Demon: you might need root password
[08:55] <winst0n> where can i sign up to an completely anonym free mail account?
[08:55] <soundray> jschmidt: you'd have to repackage it to achieve that. Normally it's easier to bypass apt and install with dpkg --force-depends
[08:55] <aroo> winst0n: gmail?
[08:55] <t0m> ive get a tip that i can define a socks for all applications like nmap in /etc/network/interfaces but i dont know how someone got a site where i can read?
[08:55] <winst0n> google? its not what i call anonymity (;
[08:56] <bsdunix> snake; download gnome as well!
[08:56] <White-Demon> aroo, how can i do that? beginner on Linux ^^
[08:56] <kane77> I just applied new theme and the workspace switcher doesn't work...
[08:56] <aroo> White-Demon: across the top go to System->Preferences
[08:56] <t0m> i've googled some hours
[08:57] <snake> bsdunix: i have gnome installed
[08:57] <B-nday> ok my question to someone who has time...i wanna check with md5, my brandnew "feisty" iso just downloaded

[08:57] <nooga> amarok does not want to work
[08:57] <snake> i can not activate the kde-theme-manager
[08:57] <nooga> it runs but does not show the icon in the tray and any window
[08:57] <sledgeas> hello
[08:57] <sledgeas> i have HP Pavilion dv4000 and need to reduce my LCD brightness, but my orig. keyboard does not work (i use external usb keyb.), how can i do it via commands (omnibook module does not support dv series..) ?
[08:57] <soundray> B-nday: if you downloaded to your desktop, 'cd ~/Desktop/ ; md5sum filename.iso'
[08:57] <B-nday> how?? the site doesn't offer any list of...
[08:57] <White-Demon> aroo, done it, but there is another problem now :(
[08:57] <safwan> anyone knows much about monodevelop?
[08:57] <Cotton-Swab> can someone please help me?
[08:57] <Cotton-Swab> in PM
[08:58] <Cotton-Swab> please
[08:58] <Cotton-Swab> vhcs.net
[08:58] <pha|con> B-nday: md5sum filename.iso > md5txt && cat md5txt filename.md5
[08:58] <Cotton-Swab>  http://vhcs.net/new/modules/phpwiki/index.php/Installation%20Ubuntu%20%28en%29 those are the instructions, I dont' understand 1 word ofit
[08:58] <jschmidt> soundray: is there an easy way to create an empty dummy package that just provides a list of dependencies that it provides?
[08:58] <B-nday> it an hell in here! is everyone speaking by itself?? :))
[08:58] <isidoro> !guidatv
[08:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about guidatv - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:58] <White-Demon> aroo, the tabs are gone from the screen now...
[08:59] <jimmygoon> pha|con, there IS a way to do it
[08:59] <jimmygoon> pha|con, there is a way to do it
[08:59] <pha|con> jimmygoon: how's that?
[08:59] <anipy> which is the tool-of-choice for DocBook-to-PDF generation on Ubuntu?
[08:59] <soundray> jschmidt: I seem to remember that building an empty package is not difficult, but I can't remember how off the top of my head
[08:59] <nooga> :/
[08:59] <jschmidt> ok, thanks
[09:00] <nooga> x
[09:00] <aroo> White-Demon: what tabs?
[09:00] <SpawN> hello
[09:00] <B-nday> soundray: the problem is to obtain the md5 code, not launching the md5 command :D
[09:00] <kane77> hi how do I get my gnome panels back?? I added new applet and it crashed and now wont come back....
[09:00] <jimmygoon> pha|con, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SeamlessVirtualization
[09:00] <safwan> does anyone know about the dotnet with linux
[09:00] <SpawN> sorry, but when i exit an game my resolution 640x
[09:00] <SpawN> how to take back normal resolution
[09:00] <jimmygoon> SpawN what game?
[09:00] <White-Demon> aroo, the 'System' and 'Applications' places...
[09:00] <joetheodd> cdavis: Agh crap. Found my problem! I ugrade'd instead of dist-upgrade'd.
[09:01] <aroo> SpawN: either reboot, press ctrl+alt+backspace to restart X, or go to system->preferences and change resolution manually
[09:01] <White-Demon> aroo, i can click on them, but i can't see them...
[09:01] <t0m> noone works with socks oO
[09:01] <SpawN> aroo : thanks
[09:01] <SpawN> i'll try
[09:01] <aroo> White-Demon: are you in the right resolution
[09:01] <soundray> B-nday: the md5sums are available from the download site where you also got the .iso
[09:01] <White-Demon> aroo, whats the right one? ^^
[09:01] <B-nday> i'll check better...seems strange i didn't found...anyway thank you so much
[09:01] <nooga> blah, amarok does not want to show main window but it runs
[09:01] <dromer> how can I "reset" my xorg.conf?
[09:01] <B-nday> ciao
[09:02] <nooga> did anyone encounter it?
[09:02] <Jared> Everytime I open update manager to install some updates...it freezes when I click install updates...any ideas? HOw can I install the updates with terminal?
[09:02] <aroo> White-Demon: I don't know, you are the one at the computer
[09:02] <B-nday> ciao  soundray
[09:02] <aroo> White-Demon: you should know your computers specs
[09:02] <pha|con> jimmygoon:  ahh...i see.  that's pretty much the opposite of what i do for linux -> windows.  nice to learn something new, though.  thanks :)
[09:02] <safwan> I guess no one know about the dotnet with linux?
[09:02] <dromer> oh n/m, I found an old one that worked also
[09:02] <ostannard> Jared: aptitude install package name
[09:02] <erUSUL> Jared: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[09:03] <erUSUL> Jared: that will update the package loist and upgrade all installed packages
[09:03] <White-Demon> aroo, okay, thanks a lot mate
[09:03] <erUSUL> dromer: try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[09:04] <pha|con> jimmygoon:  it seems to be just a remote desktop session, though.  so not really virtualized...i would imagine all the processing is done on the host machine.
[09:05] <kane77> one applet keeps on crashing my gnome-applet, what can I do??
[09:05] <jimmygoon> pha|con, yep but I can leave xp running in vmware server and it never gets in my way, always running, sure it takes up a few cycles, but its convient as all get out
[09:05] <kane77> one applet keeps on crashing my gnome-panel, what can I do??
[09:05] <Nicholas> hi all
[09:05] <pha|con> jimmygoon: what program do you need to run that badly to do all that, out of curiosity
[09:05] <jimmygoon> pha|con, visual studio 2005
[09:05] <Jared> thanks erUSUL and ustann...sorry my mouse and keyboard were unusable since I restarted my linux machine
[09:06] <pha|con> jimmygoon: ahhh

[09:07] <soundray> kane77: does it leave an error message in ~/.xsession-errors ?
[09:08] <kane77> soundray, wait I'll see
[09:08] <BloodyTux> hello
[09:08] <twocarlo> hello
[09:08] <BloodyTux> if i install kubuntu-desktop, how do i run kde
[09:08] <twocarlo> is there a way i can install programs
[09:08] <soundray> BloodyTux: select a KDE session at the login screen

[09:09] <BloodyTux> twocarlo: or applications>add/remove programs
[09:09] <kane77> soundray, yay!! I managed to get it back... It was the xpenguins (i was curious what that was...)
[09:09] <soundray> kane77: so it did log to the errors file?
[09:10] <NeXtDaY> sudo apt-get install -f <-- whats is the installed package here? !!
[09:10] <twocarlo> BloodyTux ; thanks
[09:10] <kane77> soundray, yes but not any useful info... (not its name..)
[09:10] <BloodyTux> :)
[09:10] <Nicholas> I'm trying to enable dual monitors using my Nvidia card that has VGA and a DVI out
[09:10] <soundray> NeXtDaY: f is for "fix-missing". No package parameter needed.
[09:10] <Nicholas> anyone know any good guides
[09:10] <kane77> soundray, just this: ** ERROR **: file orbit-object.c: line 149 (do_unref): assertion failed: (robj->refs < ORBIT_REFCOU etc
[09:10] <NeXtDaY> soundray aha. thanks
[09:10] <BloodyTux> hey soundray, how do the kubuntu grub spalashes work, how do i configure that?
[09:11] <Nicholas> I prefer to use GUI type stuff
[09:11] <soundray> !dualhead > Nicholas, please read ubotu's private message
[09:11] <soundray> !usplash > BloodyTux, please read ubotu's private message
[09:11] <Nicholas> thank you
[09:12] <BloodyTux> thanks
[09:13] <BloodyTux> so that usplash thing is for the package kubuntu-grub-splashimages
[09:13] <jimmygoon> pha|con, the irony of course is, part of the reason I wanted vs2005 was for the fonts/colors/ etc... and sure enough, the fonts are misrendered through terminal services :S
[09:13] <BloodyTux> it applys to that?
[09:14] <caos> hi
[09:15] <Nicholas> is Xfree86 something that is already part of ubuntu or is it something I have to addon
[09:15] <Nicholas> and can i use Synaptic
[09:15] <BloodyTux> with debconf should it be set as gdm or kdm???
[09:15] <BloodyTux> nicholas: search for xfree86 on synaptic and if the box is green, you have it
[09:15] <floriakir> i'm using ubuntu 7.04 (feisty fawn) with gnome and beryl. when using beryl every time i open a new window it's minimized or in the background. after switching to metacity in the beryl manager everything works properly! what setting do i need to adjust in order to make windows open in the foreground?
[09:16] <BloodyTux> floriakir: /join #beryl
[09:16] <Nicholas> aye
[09:16] <pha|con> jimmygoon:  irony indeed.  xming does a good job of it for linux apps on windows desktops...everything looks native save the decorations.  otherwise it alls looks like what i'd see if i were in front of my pc at home
[09:16] <_joe> folks, i built the pidgin musictracker plugin and i'd like to supply it to any ubuntu users who want it. what's the best way to do it?
[09:16] <_joe> i mean

[09:27] <kragnerac> twocarlo: bash, I believe.
[09:27] <Steffen> does anyone know of a good howto for setting up a VPN to an IPSEC Windows based server ?
[09:27] <BloodyTux> now how do i install xfce?
[09:27] <BloodyTux> nope =D
[09:27] <White-Demon> omg
[09:27] <Steffen> BloodyTux: You need to install xfce on a standard Ubuntu installation ?
[09:27] <kragnerac> That's the biggest IRC kickout i've ever seen.
[09:27] <kragnerac> :P
[09:27] <Shaneras_> Hi
[09:27] <BloodyTux> why is everyone being kicked
[09:27] <Steffen> BloodyTux: Xfce should be there in Synaptic
[09:27] <Steffen> and yes massive kickout
[09:27] <BloodyTux> will it install itself into the session menu?
[09:27] <Steffen> BloodyTux: if you select it from Synaptic, yes it will - probably will through apt-get as well, though I only got it from Synaptic
[09:27] <Shaneras_> I have a gforce fx 5200 video board! Someone know where I found the driver of this board to linux???
[09:28] <Scunizi> netsplit?
[09:28] <jordo23> I am trying to install VMWARE server for linux. I had it installed previously and thought I completely removed it. Now it's giving me a message stating that I need to completely remove the installation. When apt-get install vmware-server I get to the license agreement, but do not get to the page to enter the CD key....any ideas?

[09:28] <BloodyTux> no
[09:29] <NeXtDaY> is it a massive spam join attack?
[09:29] <kkathman> nah its just a net split - its happening in other channels also
[09:29] <Steffen> thought so, well if you just install xfce from Synaptic it should be available in the sessions menu
[09:29] <NeXtDaY> or just netsplit?

[09:30] <NeXtDaY> no idea
[09:30] <kragnerac> ubotu: hi
[09:30] <Shaneras_> Scunizi: In nvidia there are a lot of drivers to you do the download but I don't know what driver I Have to download! U understand?
[09:30] <ubotu> Shaneras_: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:30] <PriceChild> Pleast be patient and try to keep the noise down. Don't flood ubotu. Freenode will be back to normal soon.
[09:30] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit

[09:30] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[09:30] <Scunizi> Shaneras_, yep.. are you looking at the nvidia site?

[09:31] <blackest> help i need a gcc expert
[09:31] <BloodyTux> wtf is with all the people?
[09:31] <Scunizi> Shaneras_, your card is a geforce 5500?
[09:32] <Shaneras_> No , Gforce 5200
[09:32] <PriceChild> BloodyTux, Freenode is having difficulties, please don't make noise and be patient.
[09:32] <Shaneras_> FX 5200
[09:32] <blackest> for some reason when i make some includes are not being found
[09:32] <ublender_> wow, the internet xploded
[09:32] <BloodyTux> :) k
[09:33] <CheshireViking> sounds
[09:33] <kragnerac> All remember,  2007-06-18, the day Freenode went boom. :P
[09:33] <Scunizi> Shaneras_, ok.. instead of using the driver off the nvidia site, it's probably easier to use the driver in Synaptic. Check there. You have the older card so bleeding edge is not neccessary.
[09:33] <Steffen> Anyone knows of a good howto for setting up an IPSEC VPN ?
[09:33] <PriceChild> !offtopic > kragnerac
[09:33] <ublender_> o_O
[09:33] <HymnToLife`> zomg
[09:34] <PriceChild> !traffic > HymnToLife
[09:34] <NeXtDaY> hmm,, which is better KDE or Gnome? .. I haven't tried KDE yet but wanna make sure first?
[09:34] <PriceChild> !best > NeXtDaY (see pm from ubotu)
[09:34] <erUSUL> !better
[09:34] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[09:34] <Scunizi> Shaneras_, however if you must have the newest driver, then choose the "Latest Version" in the IA32 catagory
[09:35] <kbrooks> BloodyTux, pm me the rooom name
[09:35] <ublender_> wowz
[09:35] <Scunizi> NeXtDaY, if you have gnome installed you can try kde without reinstalling.  sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[09:35] <NeXtDaY> PriceChild: thats absolutely true but many many people say that KDE is better..
[09:35] <BloodyTux> #ubuntuhelpy
[09:35] <yknott> NeXtDaY: i switch from kde and xfce
[09:36] <NeXtDaY> yknott : to gnome?
[09:36] <PriceChild> NeXtDaY, its opinion.
[09:36] <snook> why I can't connect to another servers in IRC? Just irc.ubuntu.com? I have Feisty
[09:36] <Scunizi> NeXtDaY, next time you boot click the sessions button on the log-in screen and choose kde!
[09:36] <NeXtDaY> Scunizi: thanks.. I will write that down.. I am still new :)
[09:36] <yknott> na i skip gnome
[09:36] <yknott> !best > yknott
[09:36] <NeXtDaY> Scunizi: ok.. I;ll remember that!
[09:36] <kbrooks> snook, you can
[09:37] <Scunizi> NeXtDaY, the nice thing about linux is you have the choice of what windows manager you want to use at any given point in time :)
[09:37] <yknott> NeXtDaY: i switch between "xubuntu" and "kubuntu" (xfce and kde)
[09:37] <HymnToLife> [21:35]  <NeXtDaY> PriceChild: thats absolutely true but many many people say that KDE is better.. <= that's because it is :p
[09:37] <kbrooks> Scunizi, kde is not a wm
[09:37] <ublender_> Gnome FTW
[09:37] <little_oak> .
[09:37] <BloodyTux> is the split done now?
[09:37] <kbrooks> Scunizi, sorry to be picky, but it seriously isnt
[09:38] <heroin> ublender_: gnome isnt a window manager either
[09:38] <Scunizi> kbrooks, ok.. session then.. if it's not then what do you call it?
[09:38] <PriceChild> !offtopic
[09:38] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:38] <NeXtDaY> HymnToLife lol.
[09:38] <NeXtDaY> Scunizi: I will try and judge myself :)
[09:38] <ublender_> o, nautilus FTW
[09:38] <pha|con> no gnome, no KDE, it's all about CLI
[09:38] <heroin> ublender_: its not nautilus either
[09:38] <kbrooks> Scunizi, join #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:38] <BloodyTux> nope
[09:38] <heroin> ublender_: the window manager is metacity
[09:38] <ublender_> eh, Metacity FTW
[09:38] <ublender_> lol
[09:38] <BloodyTux> ciao
[09:38] <ublender_> wait, no, Beryl FTW
[09:39] <snook> kbrooks - how can i do it? I have added some another servers. But i got errors something like this - Looking for server ****, Serever found, connecting... and after some minutes Can't connect
[09:39] <NeXtDaY> yknott: I can switch using the same command sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop or sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop right?
[09:40] <yknott> NeXtDaY: yeah you can do that to install the other flavors; then at the login screen, pick which session you want "gnome", "xfce" (xubuntu), "kde"
[09:41] <NeXtDaY> yknott: okeis. thank you
[09:41] <yknott> NeXtDaY: and from within one you can use applications from the other - for example though i loaded xfce now, i still would use amarok for audio
[09:43] <NeXtDaY> yknott: ok
[09:45] <diminthedam> this the right room for ubuntu gpg questions?
[09:45] <jrib> diminthedam: sure
[09:45] <rambo3> !gpg
[09:45] <ubotu> gpg is the GNU Privacy Guard.  See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GnuPrivacyGuardHowto and class #8 on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ClassroomTranscripts
[09:46] <beebot> hmm.. paypal has been pending a long time..
[09:47] <diminthedam> jrib: gpg is crashing when in thunderbird-enigmail and evolution. reinstalling doesnt help.. should i wait for updates or is there a know solution? (ubuntu 7.04 + all updates)
[09:48] <jrib> diminthedam: tried running thunderbird in a terminal and looking for interesting output when it crashes?
[09:49] <blackkky> can someone help me?
[09:49] <blackkky> i cant run ET on ubuntu for some reason i cant run any game that is 3d
[09:50] <jrib> diminthedam: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/enigmail/+bug/119763 is this what you are experiencing?
[09:50] <diminthedam> jrib: no output in terminal. i get a thunderbird script error message
[09:50] <blackkky> can someone help??
[09:50] <cidco> has anyone had a problem installing feisty on a t60 ?
[09:50] <craigbass1976> Can anyone think of a reason why an ubuntu box would all of a sudden start refusing ssh and http requests?  I just went up to it and rebooted it, and it was ok.  An hour later (once I'm back home a half hour away of course) it's refusing conections again)
[09:51] <cidco> it crashes to an error with xorg
[09:51] <bronze-> How can I change the look of the bars at the bottom and top of the screen?
[09:51] <craigbass1976> I went through the logs and so no evidence of hacking
[09:51] <jrib> !themes > bronze- (see the private message from ubotu)
[09:51] <diminthedam> jrib: not the same symptoms, but i guess more or less same problem.
[09:51] <WickedS> blackkly sounds like you need to install videodrivers for your  card
[09:51] <jrib> diminthedam: can you pastebin the terminal output you got?
[09:51] <RedACE> what driver should I specify in xorg.conf for a Mach64 VT video card?
[09:52] <RedACE> google is unclear
[09:52] <pha|con> craigbass1976: could have lost net connection....is it behind a router?
[09:52] <GazzaK> blackkky, have you got the visdeo drivers installed right?
[09:52] <Superstar> odivelas
[09:52] <bronze-> jrib, thanks
[09:52] <NeXtDaY> bronze:  this might help : http://www.taimila.com/ubuntuosx.php
[09:52] <diminthedam> jrib: i didnt get any :( there;s no output in thunderbird terminal or OpenPGP debug console
[09:52] <craigbass1976> pha|con, It's behind a sonicwall, buti t was working fine until this weekend
[09:52] <jrib> diminthedam: is gpg working ok if you call it directly?
[09:52] <bronze-> NeXtDaY, ok, i'll check it out
[09:52] <NeXtDaY> bronze: I changed the look by following that article
[09:52] <GazzaK> blackkky, try typing "glxgears" in a terminal window and waiting to see what the ave figure is for the fps
[09:53] <pha|con> craigs: is there a machine on the local network you can try to connect from?
[09:53] <meep> hi all, if I installed a x-shell script program.... how do I uninstall it?
[09:53] <pha|con> craigbass1976: if it suddenly started refusing connections it sounds like an IP address changed somewhere, either internally or your WAN ip changed
[09:53] <craigbass1976> pha|con, no.  They're all windows boxes and I haven't forwarded any vnc ports or anything to them
[09:53] <diminthedam> jrib: yes. but thunderbird crashes whenever i call it to use gpg
[09:53] <jrib> meep: how did yuou install it?
[09:53] <craigbass1976> pha|con, nope; static ip
[09:54] <pha|con> craigbass1976: you can login via ssh from windows, just use putty
[09:54] <meep> jrib: sudo chmod +x wolfET.run ; sudo ./wolfET.run
[09:54] <diminthedam> jrib: and so does evolution....
[09:54] <jrib> diminthedam: I mean using 'gpg --decrypt' in a terminal for example
[09:54] <craigbass1976> pha|con, right, but I can't get to a windows box on that network
[09:54] <RedACE> google is unclear
[09:54] <RedACE> what driver should I specify in xorg.conf for a Mach64 VT video card?
[09:54] <blackkky> GazzaK, sec
[09:54] <jrib> meep: either delete everything it installed or consult the documentation for your program, it's impossible to guess what it did
[09:54] <pha|con> craigbass1976: which IP address is static?
[09:55] <blackkky> GazzaK,  ?
[09:55] <meep> jrib: ok cheers
[09:55] <blackkky> GazzaK,  Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[09:55] <blackkky> Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual
[09:55] <craigbass1976> pha|con, Theirs, the one with the ubuntu box I'm trying to get into
[09:55] <eXeCuT3> hi, i tried to upgrade, http://img46.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshot3jg8.png
[09:55] <eXeCuT3> is that bad? :\
[09:55] <bronze-> Is gnome and GTK+ the same thing?
[09:55] <craigbass1976> I'm wondering if someone had my ip once (mine is dynamic) and denyhosts blocked it
[09:55] <eXeCuT3> to 7.04
[09:55] <pha|con> craigbass1976: i mean is the internal IP address static or is the WAN ip static or are they both?
[09:56] <jrib> bronze-: no, GTK+ is a subset of GNOME
[09:56] <blackkky> GazzaK,
[09:56] <craigbass1976> pha|con, the public and ubuntu ip are both static.
[09:56] <bronze-> jrib, OK, how can I see what version of GTK+ I have?
[09:56] <brett_h> Is there a generalized way to see how an Ubuntu package was configured and compiled?
[09:56] <crimsun> brett_h: apt-get source foo, then look at debian/rules
[09:57] <pha|con> k, hold on
[09:57] <eXeCuT3> hmmm... anybody?
[09:57] <brett_h> crimsun: Thank you
[09:57] <craigbass1976> pha|con, did you get my PM?
[09:58] <pha|con> craigbass1976: yeah
[09:58] <KamJ> Hey :) Just installed Ubuntu, its great, i have set up a SSH Server, i can connect to it fine, changed the port. But when trying to transfer, or access the home directory, it times out (15 second timeout error)
[09:58] <KamJ> any suggestions ?
[09:58] <pha|con> craigbass1976: i get 100% packet loss when pinging that IP
[09:59] <jrib> bronze-: why?
[09:59] <choogster> evening all
[09:59] <bronze-> jrib, to find out what themes to choose.
[09:59] <craigbass1976> pha|con, could be the firewall is dropping them.  I can log into the firewall, so the ip is up
[09:59] <blackkky> GazzaK,  ????
[09:59] <choogster> why is it that gnome web browser defaults to working offline all the time?
[09:59] <jrib> bronze-: use gtk 2.x
[09:59] <pha|con> craigbass1976: you sure the ubuntu machine is up then?
[09:59] <craigbass1976> pha|con, but ssh got you nothing?
[10:00] <eXeCuT3> nobody? :\
[10:00] <bronze-> jrib, what's standard in ubuntu feisty?
[10:00] <blackest> anyone any good with make
[10:00] <pha|con> craigbass1976: connection refused.  port forwarded to 22, right?
 hi, i tried to upgrade, http://img46.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshot3jg8.png
 is that bad? :\
[10:00] <jrib> bronze-: gtk 2.x
[10:00] <diminthedam> jrib: gpg works in terminal (and in other frontends)
[10:00] <eXeCuT3> i don't know if i should reset :\
[10:00] <craigbass1976> pha|con, yep.  Ok, it's not jsut me then
[10:00] <Chore-Boy> hello again people
[10:00] <craigbass1976> pha|con, having kids is very difficult when one wants to really swear at a box...
[10:00] <eXeCuT3> come on, tosbalek, help me
[10:00] <bronze-> jrib, ok, thanks alot
[10:00] <KamJ> any suggestions why SSH is timing out in 15 seconds when tyring to access the home directory /home/<user> ? or trying to transfer files ?
[10:01] <train> gutsy is so buggy
[10:01] <train> =[
[10:01] <firefly2442> KamJ: can you ping the computer?
[10:01] <craigbass1976> KamJ, What's the command you type and what happens?
[10:01] <pha|con> craigbass1976: indeed, but i wouldn't know...hehe  well, if it just stopped working chances are the machine locked up
[10:01] <Chore-Boy> ive been lookin at all these different emulator things for windows.... i dont know... i downloaded wine, tried to play DiabloII with it... wouldnt really work.... does somebody know of something i can use, alls i want to do is play diablo (from my windows part) in linux
[10:01] <jrib> train: of course, it's still being developer... it's not meant to be used by end-users
[10:01] <KamJ> i can connect fine, i am using a Windows Machine, a program called WinSCP, it can connect via SSH fine as root
[10:02] <KamJ> put when accessing the home directory it times out
[10:02] <craigbass1976> KamJ, What's the command you type and what happens?
[10:02] <VERTiG0> hey folks.
[10:02] <train> I spent the last few days customizing it, I wish I hadn't spent so much time
[10:02] <jrib> diminthedam: you can try the same debugging steps the bug reporter in the bug I linked you to did
[10:03] <KamJ> craigbass1976: using a program called WinSCP to access this machine, log in fine as root, but times out when transfering or accessing the home directory
[10:03] <craigbass1976> KamJ, are you using putty?
[10:03] <RedACE> you're logging in to ssh as root?
[10:03] <firefly2442> KamJ: are you using sftp?
[10:03] <RedACE> don't do that
[10:03] <diminthedam> jrib: sorry but how do i launch TB as a new user? under another ubuntu login?
[10:03] <RedACE> you should have that disabled
[10:04] <VERTiG0> i just installed feisty on an older laptop of mine, and am trying to get it connected to the internet (wired ethernet).  i can connect to my LAN but apparently my router isn't giving it an address, as when I type "sudo dhclient eth0" it returns with no DHCPOFFERS received.  the router is a Linksys WRT54G with DD-WRT v23 SP2 on it, if that makes any difference. i know the ethernet ports on the laptop and router are good,
[10:04] <jrib> diminthedam: yeah
[10:04] <KamJ> firefly2442: ya using SFTP
[10:04] <eXeCuT3> come on, i need some help :\
[10:04] <firefly2442> KamJ: vsftpd, proftpd? what ftp server?
[10:04] <RedACE> firefly: do you even know what sftp is?
[10:05] <Chore-Boy> what is this KVM, supposedly lets you run windows programs? does it work well?
[10:05] <pha|con> firefly2442: it doesn't use FTP it uses SSH
[10:05] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, just set it static and see what happens  ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.1 (whatever you want for an address) and then make /etc/resolve.conf say the ip of your dns server
[10:05] <firefly2442> oh my bad
[10:05] <KamJ> is SFTP and SSH the same ?
[10:05] <rambo3> no
[10:05] <firefly2442> got that confused with secure ftp
[10:05] <KamJ> or is there a different server i need to install
[10:05] <jrib> Chore-Boy: it does more than that, it lets you run windows itself
[10:05] <craigbass1976> KamJ, I don't think so.  Isn't sftp just encrypted ftp?
[10:05] <Chore-Boy> jrib: will it boot my windows partition?
[10:05] <pha|con> KamJ: no, it just lets you transfer files from one PC to the other via ssh
[10:05] <HymnToLife> SFTP is FTP over SSH
[10:05] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, would you mind walking me through that, if you could?  i'm very new to linux, especially the terminal.
[10:05] <HymnToLife> you don't need an additional server installed
[10:05] <Chore-Boy> i downloaded virtualbox... that wanted me to install a totally new windows image... bleh
[10:05] <craigbass1976> KamJ, openssh-server I think
[10:06] <jrib> Chore-Boy: no, I don't think so.  You need to install windows in kvm
[10:06] <rambo3> KamJ, SFTP is ftp  over SSH , basicly ftp on diferent port
[10:06] <Chore-Boy> man...
[10:06] <coalchamber1022> how do i apply a new theme to beryl? any one know what app i use
[10:06] <Chore-Boy> well, wine worked, kindof....
[10:06] <pha|con> KamJ: if you want to transfer files froma  linux box to a windows machine over SFTP try doing it as a regular user
[10:06] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, did you get my pm?
[10:06] <firefly2442> KamJ: so root works but regular user times out when connect?
[10:06] <jrib> coalchamber1022: emerald theme manager (right click on the emerald)
[10:07] <eXeCuT3> bah :(
[10:07] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, PM received and replied.
[10:07] <eXeCuT3> please, someone, help ? :\
[10:07] <Chore-Boy> the only thing, other than diablo, that i tried to open, was alcohol.... but then alcohol wouldnt close lol
[10:07] <coalchamber1022> jrib ok thanks
[10:07] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, I dont' see it
[10:07] <assasukasse> i killalled ssh-agent how can i respawn it?
[10:07] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, See if you can open up a private window with me
[10:07] <VERTiG0> now?
[10:07] <firefly2442> Chore-Boy: cedega?
[10:07] <Chore-Boy> makes me wish i still had a windows98 cd, lol....
[10:07] <KamJ> firefly2442: it connects with both users, root and the home user, problem is that it keeps timing out when trying to access the home directory
[10:07] <Chore-Boy> i heard u had to pay for cedega
[10:07] <Chore-Boy> so i didnt even mess with it
[10:08] <VERTiG0> still nothing?
[10:08] <ProN00b> is there any paint for ubuntu thats got the same feature set of windows paint ?
[10:08] <firefly2442> KamJ: do you have write access for that directory?
[10:08] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, ahh, screw it, we'll just have to keep wathcing for each other in here.  WHat's the box you're on now running?
[10:08] <firefly2442> ProN00b: The Gimp?
[10:08] <spiderfire> gnupaint?
[10:08] <Chore-Boy> wine didnt seem to work with diablo, although "they" said it worked just fine on the website
[10:08] <ProN00b> firefly2442, more lightweight
[10:09] <elias_> assasukasse: eval `ssh-agent`
[10:09] <jrib> ProN00b: xpaint?
[10:09] <VERTiG0> i'm running on my windows desktop right now, with the Ubuntu-based laptop beside me.
[10:09] <Chore-Boy> firefly2442: alls i wanna do is play diablo from my windows partition, you think cedega would be a good idea?
[10:09] <KamJ> firefly2442: logging as the root user, should i have access ?
[10:09] <ProN00b> jrib, x* apps are kind old, nothing serious for g*
[10:09] <firefly2442> KamJ: yes... but I don't think that's a good solution
[10:09] <yknott> Chore-Boy: you can install diablo through wine, have it on your ubuntu partition
[10:09] <pha|con> Chore-Boy: you can't run it from your windows partition, you have to install it from scratch for it to work properly
[10:09] <firefly2442> Chore-Boy: I've never used it but you might want to look into it
[10:09] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, ok, open up a comand prompt in windows.  Maybe in accessories, maybe in system tools.  I swear to God it's different on every windows box
[10:09] <assasukasse> elias_: is there any way to make ssh-agent start at bootup and keep the user added?
[10:09] <jrib> ProN00b: well you're asking for a program like paint :)
[10:09] <wpgmb> Q: which medibuntu w32codecs should be selected for mp3 & dvd playback? There's quite the list of packages in the non-free w32 pool...
[10:10] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976: done and done.
[10:10] <ProN00b> jrib, i know xpaint, thats the first thing that comes up if you search for paint
[10:10] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, type this exactly: ipconfig /all
[10:10] <elias_> assasukassa: if you use gnome i would recommend seahorse
[10:10] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976: done
[10:10] <assasukasse> elias_: thanks i will give a look
[10:11] <Chore-Boy> install it through wine....
[10:11] <Chore-Boy> hmm
[10:11] <KamJ> firefly2442: ya i know its not a good solution, not planning on doing it that way, but its still timing out, know can you recommend a program for windows (SFTP) that will be able to access through SSH and transfer files (with a GUI)
[10:11] <craigbass1976> Now either open up a command line in Ubuntu, or go to the network config GUI (system->administration->networking)
[10:11] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, Now either open up a command line in Ubuntu, or go to the network config GUI (system->administration->networking)
[10:11] <firefly2442> KamJ: WinSCP is what I use too
[10:11] <elias_> assasukassa: thats a key-manager interface for ssh-agent and gpg-agent
[10:11] <Chore-Boy> so i have to install windows from scratch on my linux part in order for diablo to work
[10:11] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, got a CLI open
[10:11] <firefly2442> KamJ: did you change any settings in WinSCP or the SSH server or anything?
[10:12] <Chore-Boy> notice, alls i care about is diablo, lol... they should have a computer that just boots diablo....
[10:12] <KamJ> firefly2442: ahh okay, so when i login as root, and try to expand the or get into the home directory of the default user created, it times out
[10:12] <gnychis_> I have my timezone set to eastern but the clock is off by a couple hours ... shouldn't ntp be taking care of this?
[10:12] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, what is the ip of the windows box?
[10:12] <firefly2442> KamJ: mine worked fine
[10:12] <pha|con> Chore-Boy: no, you have to install diablo from scratch, you can't just play it from your windows partition
[10:12] <assasukasse> elias_: i have a remote computer that spawns a reverse ssh tunnel on my machine, i wish to keep ssh with password, so the way is ssh-agent...but if someone reboots, i want it to keep the passphrase cached so that i don't have to add myself..does seahorse do?
[10:12] <Linkin>  ;)
[10:12] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, Should say in the window you had open.  Also, find the dns and default gateway
[10:12] <KamJ> firefly2442: nope didnt change anything, onl thing i changed was the port in the sshd_config file then in the router
[10:12] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, 192.168.1.137
[10:12] <firefly2442> KamJ: well, the fact that you can connect... at least it's not a network issue
[10:12] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, how many other boxes no the network
[10:12] <Linkin>  !
[10:13] <firefly2442> KamJ: maybe the router firewall is blocking it?
[10:13] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, 1 other windows desktop (wired), and a windows laptop (wireless)
[10:13] <firefly2442> KamJ: I don't know what ports it uses....
[10:13] <Chore-Boy> pha|con: so i install diablo, through wine?
[10:13] <Chore-Boy> into a dir on my linux part?
[10:13] <elias_> assasukasse: the problem is that caching this key over reboot is insecure
[10:13] <pha|con> Chore-Boy: yeah, just run the setup off the disk through wine.
[10:13] <Chore-Boy> sweet, thx
[10:13] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, ok, type: sudo vi /etc/network/interfaces
[10:13] <assasukasse> elias_: i know but still more secure than having a passphraseless key..vulnerable to mim
[10:13] <elias_> assasukasse: you can make an uncrypted key
[10:14] <Chore-Boy> i suppose i have to install wine again
[10:14] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, they're all connected through a Linksys WRT54G router running DD-WRT firmware, if that makes any difference.
[10:14] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976: okay.
[10:14] <assasukasse> elias_: i didnt get
[10:14] <Chore-Boy> its apt-get install wine, right?
[10:14] <KamJ> firefly2442: could be
[10:14] <pha|con> Chore-Boy: yeah
[10:14] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, I was just wondering what addresses to watch out for
[10:14] <Chore-Boy> k
[10:14] <m3thos> anyone knows how do _destroy_ a md device?
[10:14] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, got the file open?
[10:14] <pha|con> Chore-Boy: actually, sudo apt-get install wine
[10:14] <Chore-Boy> pha|con: u know if it will work through battle.net?
[10:14] <BloodyTux> ne1 need help?
[10:14] <pha|con> Chore-Boy: as long as your CD-key is valid ;)
[10:14] <elias_> assasukasse: hm the gentoo guys made a tool called keychain maybe that will help
[10:14] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, okay, the file is open.
[10:14] <synie> hello
[10:15] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, you familiar with vi?
[10:15] <wpgmb> Q: which medibuntu w32codecs should be selected for mp3 & dvd playback? There's quite the list of packages in the non-free w32 pool...
[10:15] <Chore-Boy> pha|con: of course....
[10:15] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, I'm not.  totally new to terinal
[10:15] <VERTiG0> *terminal.
[10:15] <assasukasse> elias_: i will give a look thanks!
[10:15] <synie> is it possible to get a 2.4.* kernel image on feisty?
[10:15] <KamJ> firefly2442: lets say i wanted to copy the entire /bin/ folder, could i do that with the user created during installation ?
[10:15] <pha|con> Chore-Boy: should work just fine, then
[10:15] <Chore-Boy> one of these days, ill be an uber linux dude
[10:15] <Chore-Boy> thx pha|con
[10:15] <elias_> assasukasse: forget seahorse thats for gui and local use
[10:15] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, ahh.  Well, hang on to your pants...  Hit i to enter interactive mode
[10:16] <predaeus> synie, you could compile one yourself
[10:16] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, just the lowercase letter i.
[10:16] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, it does nothing...
[10:16] <synie> predaeus, takes so long. just have to test something as quick as possible
[10:16] <craigbass1976> maybe its insert, not interactive
[10:16] <VERTiG0> okay
[10:16] <VERTiG0> Here.
[10:16] <VERTiG0> got it.
[10:16] <firefly2442> KamJ: if you are just doing read access, then yes
[10:16] <predaeus> synie, there is none in the repos, 2.4 is far too old to expect that.
[10:16] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, Done and done
[10:17] <synie> hmm okay :-(
[10:17] <firefly2442> KamJ: if you right click on a folder or file, then properties, then permissions, you can see who has access
[10:17] <gnychis_> i have my timezone set to eastern but my clock time is still wrong, what else can i do?
[10:17] <Chore-Boy> pha|con: before i spend half an hour shuffling diablo disks... can i just copy the windows' dir of diablo to a folder on linux? and run it from there
[10:17] <pha|con> craigbass1976: maybe he should use nano if he's just editing plain text?  fewer weird commands to have to worry about for just text editing.
[10:17] <elias_> assasukasse: maybe openvpn is the right solution for you
[10:17] <predaeus> synie, looks like therer is 2.4ers in warty repos
[10:17] <pha|con> Chore-Boy: fraid not, man.
[10:17] <mortuis99> is there a good HTML editor for linux?
[10:18] <predaeus> synie, http://packages.ubuntu.com/warty/allpackages
[10:18] <Chore-Boy> k, thx more
[10:18] <firefly2442> mortuis99: quanta, bluefish?

[10:18] <Chore-Boy> you guys... you gotta see my cd-rom drive... lol... my burner took a dump, so i had to put a 32x compaq cd-rom drive in my machine, lol.... the gears have to be manually turned to get the cd drawer to close and engage...
[10:19] <predaeus> synie, might give problems with glibc or something though, I think kernel uses shared libs too
[10:19] <synie> predaeus, i tried to install it from an older repo, but i got an kernel panic
[10:19] <Cotton-Swab> what does it mean if there is a red X on the corner of an icon?
[10:20] <Cotton-Swab> and a lock on the botton of the icon
[10:20] <predaeus> synie, hm.
[10:20] <pha|con> Cotton-Swab: means you can't change it or del it or read it
[10:20] <synie> well, so i think i have to compile it manualy ...
[10:20] <wpgmb> Cotton-Swab: try opening, and then changing the file
[10:20] <mike_> I have Beryl installed but its not doing anything?
[10:20] <predaeus> synie, might even be difficult to compile manually with newer glibcs
[10:21] <Cotton-Swab> wpgmb: I get an error
[10:21] <RedACE> mike_: is that a question?
[10:21] <wpgmb> mike: what kind of video card do you have. and which drivers?
[10:21] <wpgmb> Cotton-Swab: what error?
[10:21] <synie> predaeus, hmm, that doesn't sound good
[10:21] <ghaleb> hi all, I'm looking for a free english to arabic dictionary , is there ?
[10:21] <Cotton-Swab> You do not have the permissions necessary to open the file
[10:21] <mike_> Nvidia fx 5500, restricted driver are installed
[10:21] <elias_> mortuis99: bluefish, quanta
[10:22] <yknott> Cotton-Swab: yes it may be that something was run as root, so root has the permission but your user account does not
[10:22] <predaeus> synie, try it I am not sure anyway. just often had problems with minor version differences of 2.6. and glibc and so on, so I just think it might mess with 2.4 too
[10:22] <wpgmb> Cotton-Swab: I could have told you that right away, but nothing beats a hands-on lesson  :o)
[10:22] <synie> predaeus, thanks a lot. i will try it :-)
[10:22] <Cotton-Swab> yknott: what is the command again?
[10:22] <Cotton-Swab> in terminal?
[10:23] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, are you dead?  heh
[10:23] <wpgmb> Cotton-Swab: Do you understand what happened?
[10:23] <ghaleb> elias_, I'm looking for a free english to arabic dictionary , is there?
[10:23] <Cotton-Swab> yes
[10:23] <Chore-Boy> uh oh... lol
[10:23] <Cotton-Swab> the file needs permissions
[10:23] <Cotton-Swab> or something
[10:23] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, got a phone call
[10:23] <mike_> any ideas?
[10:23] <VERTiG0> right on.
[10:24] <assasukasse> elias_: i was looking into hamachi
[10:24] <wpgmb> Cotton-Swab: err.. no... not the file... right-click on the file, check out the permissions tab
[10:24] <assasukasse> but..erh..well, it didn't look so easy to configure--
[10:24] <elias_> ghaleb: how should i know :) i am from austria
[10:24] <wpgmb> Cotton-Swab: YOU need permission  :o)
[10:24] <Cotton-Swab> www-data
[10:24] <elias_> assasukasse:  whats that?
[10:24] <Cotton-Swab> I don't need permissions to move something that is on MY computer
[10:25] <assasukasse> elias_: something like openvpn
[10:25] <LinkinPark> www.sex.com
[10:25] <RedACE> Cotton-Swab: this isn't windows
[10:25] <Cotton-Swab> I should be the one giving it premissions

[10:27] <elias_> assasukasse: jep
[10:27] <Cotton-Swab> what is the terminal commond
[10:27] <yknott> so something like sudo chown youruserid:youruserid foldertochange/ -R           but it may help to understand what happened as well
[10:27] <sam26> hi, would need a hand with a strange problem that surfaced after a radeon x600 was changed in a maintenance to x.700se.. ATI's open drivers no longer work, but restricted drivers (fglrx) do work
[10:27] <diminthedam> jrib: renaming .gnupg to .gnpg2 causes enigmail to notice that the required folder is not present...
[10:27] <jrib> diminthedam: regenerate it
[10:27] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, ok, so you are in insert mode in vi.  There should be an eth0 line
[10:27] <diminthedam> jrib: reinstall gnupg?
[10:27] <elias_> assasukasse: http://openvpn.net/
[10:27] <jrib> diminthedam: no, just do the same thing you did with the new user
[10:28] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, iface eth0 inet or some such
[10:28] <wpgmb> Cotton-Swab: terminal command for changing permissions?
[10:28] <Cotton-Swab> wpgmb: no, for moving a file
[10:28] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, yeah.  "iface eth0 inet static"
[10:28] <Cotton-Swab> I want to move the file
[10:28] <wpgmb> Cotton-Swab: I g2g, but Google is your friend.....
[10:28] <Cotton-Swab> ok

[10:35] <Cotton-Swab> thanks Yasumoto
[10:35] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, changing a diaper ( not mine) brb
[10:35] <cdavis> can someone point me to some documentation on how to make a deb of 386 dev sources for amd64?
[10:35] <rob1979> hey everyone, can anyone give a noob a hand on his 1st ubuntu test run?? :P  I'm having issues with my screen resolution
[10:35] <ticnailer69> in order to use the ipchains command I apparently I need to install a kernal that has IP firewall chains.......does anyone know the command for installing this patch?
[10:35] <SteveBallmer> blazemonger: Windows is EAL 4 + certified.
[10:35] <psusi> sidux: sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/hda1 /mnt, assuming the disk is the first or only ide disk in the system and the partition you want to mount is the first and it is formatted as ext3
[10:36] <predaeus> ticnailer69, are you on feisty?
[10:36] <Nwallins|home> anyone know how to enable mp3 encoding in ffmpeg?  I have lame, liblame0, and liblame-dev installed
[10:36] <Nwallins|home> ffmpeg is still complaining about unsupported codec
[10:36] <LinkinPark> c
[10:36] <SteveBallmer> blazemonger: Try that with Ubuntu.
[10:36] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, when i typed "sudo vi /etc/network/interfaces" it says "E325: ATTENTION         Found a swap file by the name '/etc/network/.interfaces.swp' blah blah"....  is this supposed to happen?
[10:36] <psusi> sidux: then again I may have reversed the last two parameters.... I tend to do that....
[10:36] <rob1979> anyone know how i can get my screen res to go above 800x600, none of the online docs really helped
[10:36] <nitrocks> is there a way to set the gnome-panel at the bottom of the desktop to only take up a portion of the screen.. maybe like 50%?
[10:36] <ticnailer69> dont know what feisty is...
[10:36] <LinkinPark> wcho are you?
[10:36] <sidux> psusi: this will take a minute
[10:36] <elias_> assasukasse: should work
[10:37] <SteveBallmer> rob1979: Have you tried looking at your xorg.conf?
[10:37] <blazemonger> well steve you have mass armies of UFO's surrounding your headquarters in redmonhd
[10:37] <predaeus> nitrocks, right click on it and set properties/preferences or so
[10:37] <blazemonger> have fun :)
[10:37] <blazemonger> heh
[10:37] <pavs> linkinpark is awesome
[10:37] <predaeus> ticnailer69, did you install Ubuntu recently?
[10:37] <LinkinPark> America?
[10:37] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, it meaNS YOU ALREADY HAVE IT OPEN SOMEWHERE.  Oops, sorry fpr caps--typing one hasnded
[10:37] <astomper> How do I find out my local ip adress? an example would be 192.168.1.102
[10:37] <blazemonger> good thing the beings in these ships aren't lizards like you are steve balmer :)
[10:37] <ticnailer69> xubuntu
[10:37] <ticnailer69> yeah
[10:37] <Sergo> astomper: netstat /
[10:37] <Sergo> ?
[10:37] <craigbass1976> astomper, ifconfig
[10:37] <pavs> astomper type ifocnfig
[10:37] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, nothing is open though.  i have closed it all.
[10:37] <psusi> astomper: sudo ifconfig
[10:37] <pavs> ifconfig
[10:37] <SteveBallmer> rob1979: If you can't get over 800x600, you are either lazy or your hardware isn't supported.
[10:37] <predaeus> ticnailer69, you should have iptables by default. it comes with the linux kernel, it is already compiled into it.
[10:37] <LinkinPark> England, Canada?
[10:38] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, ps -ef | grep network
[10:38] <rob1979> Thanks Steve, but i'm not lazy (as i
[10:38] <blazemonger> i mean steve's hands-on-his- balls pretending to be a digital pimp :)
[10:38] <nitrocks> predaeus: i've done that(in running fiesty).. i'm only presented with very basic options.. such as orientation, size(vertical), expan autohide, and some background settings
[10:38] <pavs> psusi youdon't need sudo for ifconfig, do you?
[10:38] <rob1979> 've tried all of the online docs)
[10:38] <SteveBallmer> rob1979: Really.
[10:38] <blazemonger> stev eballmer:I prefer 640x480 resolution
[10:38] <rob1979> and i know i have supported hardware, i contacted the manufactuer
[10:38] <ticnailer69> is that somewhat the same as ipchains?
[10:38] <VERTiG0> okay craigbass1976, done that.  now back to sudo vi /etc/network/interfaces?
[10:38] <predaeus> nitrocks, try the expand option
[10:38] <blazemonger> i have bad eyes
[10:38] <astomper> thanks craigbass1976 and pavs and psusi
[10:38] <predaeus> nitrocks, but I fear it will resize with whatever is inside it then
[10:38] <blazemonger> stevebalmer :) :)
[10:39] <nitrocks> predaeus: thanks.. that did it
[10:39] <ericG> a few questions when someone has time
[10:39] <Chore-Boy> hey guys
[10:39] <SteveBallmer> rob1979: What video chipset module is X.org trying to use? What is the default resolution / depth in the config?
[10:39] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, yeah, nevermi9nd whatever showed up.  pick the option that disregards the swap file
[10:39] <predaeus> !ask > ericG
[10:39] <Chore-Boy> i got through most of the diablo install with wine....
[10:39] <blazemonger> i don't \like games
[10:39] <ericG> Predaeus.. have a couple?
[10:39] <astomper> Sergo, I think netstat is something else, thanks though.
[10:39] <blazemonger> except 8 bit nes games
[10:39] <predaeus> ericG, just ask, if somebody knows, they will answer
[10:39] <Chore-Boy> when i put the expansion pack disk in and go to install that, it says 'pleas insert the diablo II cd labelled 'espansion disk''
[10:40] <Chore-Boy> the expansion disk is in there, because thats what i put in there, and thats what i ran the setup from
[10:40] <LinkinPark> from where you?
[10:40] <SteveBallmer> We can't help you without some details.
[10:40] <blazemonger> Vista is hypno-ware
[10:40] <ericG> K... installed wine .39... gave errors on creating directories in console... tried to add ttf and only root had permissions.. not sure what to do.. am a noob
[10:40] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, okay i'm back at some stuff that starts with "auto lo                         iface lo inet loopback                            iface eth0 inet static                 address 192.168.1.150"       etc. etc.     but i can't move around the cursor to edit it, the arrow keys turn out to be letters.
[10:40] <pavs> i dont' know why people bother installing/using wine, it's way more easier to just install a vitual machine and run a windows box inside linux,
[10:41] <blazemonger> even the emo kids don't like vista lol
[10:41] <rob1979> SteveBallmer: well, here's the deal, i'm a proficient (enough) windows/mac user and wanted to give linux a try since i'm pretty much fed up with MS and Apple, so i'm a total noob (but not an idiot) when it comes to linux, i really need some step-by-step guidance, if you're not busy i would totally apriciate a hand, but i really need some hand-holding to get started.  How can I check the config in the terminal?
[10:41] <blazemonger> vista's ancient news stevebalmer just go ahead and release windows sevcen
[10:41] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, hit Esc, then (including the colon) :q!

[10:43] <ericG> should I be looking into a WINE channel instead of an Ubuntu one? My question is a permissions issue
[10:43] <SteveBallmer> wols_: It is more likely that he has integrated video.
[10:43] <Chore-Boy> does ubuntu 7.04 come with an iso-mounter?
[10:43] <mroc> i'm trying to set up vnc through ssh and have the following errors: "channel 3: open failed: connect failed: Connection refused"     and     "ReadFromRFBServer: rdr::EndOfStream"  thanks in advance for any help        (or am i too far offtopic)
[10:43] <wols_> Chore-Boy: what is an iso mounter?
[10:43] <pavs> VERTigo insted of using vi or vim to edit important files, just use "nano filename" . it you are not used to vi, you are likely to screw your files up.
[10:43] <Chore-Boy> like daemon tools
[10:43] <predaeus> !repeat | nullkuhl

[10:43] <blazemonger> stevebalmer just GPL Windows Seven while your little toy empire can :)
[10:43] <SteveBallmer> There are too many stupid questions being asked to follow conversations long enough to help anyone.
[10:43] <wols_> Chore-Boy: yes. mount the ISO via loopback
[10:43] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, i closed that though, and opened a new terminal and did "sudo gedit" and now have a gedit window open
[10:43] <CoOlGhOsT> wols_: can it do a quick disk check - cause I have tried fsck which takes a VERY long time
[10:43] <wols_> Chore-Boy: mount itself can do it
[10:44] <ticnailer69> waht does iptalbles have to do with ipchains?
[10:44] <wols_> CoOlGhOsT: no
[10:44] <Chore-Boy> oh, you can just mount the thing itself
[10:44] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, man... Now go open the file with that.
[10:44] <Chore-Boy> right click it ?
[10:44] <VERTiG0> pavs, i'm totally unfamiliar with any of the Linux command line, so I'm not sure what you're talking about there :)
[10:44] <rob1979> ack, okay, i'm running this as a livecd right now just to get a feel for it so it's kinda mkin' me mad... gonna go install it on my HDD and come back better prepared, thanks for the offers of help... l8r
[10:44] <wols_> Chore-Boy: man mount
[10:44] <LinkinPark> what it after a chat?
[10:44] <skarface> mount -t iso9660 -o ro,loop=/dev/loop0 isofile /mnt/iso_directory
[10:44] <Chore-Boy> heh
[10:44] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, I've got two hands again
[10:44] <faemir> could someone tell me why a .asc key won't be added? i followed the guide on here: http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
[10:45] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, okay got it open.  should i just edit it as you mentiond and save it?
[10:45] <joe4444> i'm about to upgrade from Edgy to Feisty, and i backed up (hopefully) all my important files on /dev/hda1 which is currently auto-mounted to /mnt/data ...in order to access my backup after i format /dev/sda1 can i simply paste the same line from my current /etc/fstab that mounts /dev/hda1 and then reboot?
[10:45] <predaeus> ticnailer69, I do not know what ipchains is, but if you want to configure your firewall just use iptables or some frontend like firestarter
[10:45] <jrib> faemir: what command are you using?
[10:45] <ticnailer69> ok
[10:45] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, Yes.  Paste that part right in from the link I gave you
[10:45] <ticnailer69> thanks bro
[10:45] <CoOlGhOsT> wols_: ok... ill have a look see.. thanks
[10:45] <ericG> how do I edit folder permissions when it's at root and I'm logged in as use?
[10:45] <LinkinPark>     ? :D
[10:45] <faemir> jrib: apt-key add innotek.asc
[10:45] <ericG> user
[10:45] <pavs> vertigo: sorry I thought it would be easier for you to edit files with a from called "nano", instead of using "vi", but since you are not using onle terminal, might as weel using "gedit", which you are doing right now.
[10:45] <jrib> faemir: you need a "sudo" in front
[10:46] <jrib> LinkinPark: english only please
[10:46] <faemir> xD
[10:46] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, the IP address: 192.168.1.120, is that just a random address or is that important?
[10:46] <faemir> jrib: thanks :D
[10:46] <predaeus> LinkinPark, where are you from, so that we can point you to the appropriate channel?
[10:46] <Nwallins|home> anyone know what packages are required to allow ffmpeg to encode / output mp3?
[10:46] <pavs> vertigo: that ip is assigned by your DHCP server.
[10:46] <b08y> ericG, press alt+f2 and enter "gksudo nautilus" you will get a nautilus as root
[10:46] <VERTiG0> pavs: no worries, thanks for the help attempt though :)
[10:46] <Nwallins|home> i have lame, liblame0, liblame-dev, lame-extras installed
[10:46] <ericG> thanks.. will try that
[10:46] <ar3ac> hi guys
[10:47] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, not important
[10:47] <jrib> Nwallins|home: you probably need to recompile it or use the one from medibuntu repos
[10:47] <blazemonger> E!
[10:47] <ar3ac> someone has troubles accessing windows vista shares ?
[10:47] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976: okay I have edited the file as noted and have saved it.  next?
[10:47] <LinkinPark> I from Ukraine
[10:47] <SteveBallmer> ar3ac: Have you tried accessing the shares from a Windows machine?
[10:47] <ar3ac> SteveBallmer, i resolved
[10:47] <blazemonger> this ubuntu thyingie is a nice window cleaner
[10:48] <ar3ac> i just want to explain the solution
[10:48] <SteveBallmer> Using Windows when you are doing Windows stuff usually helps.
[10:48] <sidux> psusi: is it possible that /dev/hda1 might be /dev/sda1?
[10:48] <Azhi_Dahaka> hi
[10:48] <ar3ac> the problem is in "Samba" version , the 3,0.25 rock with vista
[10:48] <Azhi_Dahaka> ubuntu recognizes my digicam but i can't see what's inside
[10:48] <SteveBallmer> But Debian is great for lots of cheap servers.
[10:48] <psusi> sidux: yes, if it is scsi or sata
[10:48] <ar3ac> you have to recompile libgnomevfs2 too
[10:48] <Azhi_Dahaka> digiKam can't connect to the camera
[10:48] <blazemonger> gets those stains that steve balmer left in xp sp3
[10:48] <sx66> how do you configure the remote desktop and where do you insert the code?
[10:48] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, now open / etc/resolv.conf
[10:48] <Emperor_Norton> hi, Is there a way to make a kde app look like a gnome one, colour scheme etc, I remember there was a way but I can't remember it.
[10:48] <sidux> psusi: okay
[10:49] <blazemonger> and it's not just beerstains steve balme3r left :)
[10:49] <infodroid> anyone know how to get list of GPG keys for official ubuntu repositories? this info should be available somewhere?
[10:49] <jrib> !easysource > infodroid (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:49] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, it's open, but it's... blank?
[10:49] <faemir> Emperor_Norton: log into kde and find a skin that is identical?
[10:49] <blazemonger> SteveBallmer justr mession with yah steve
[10:49] <predaeus> LinkinPark, sorry I do not know the name of the ukranian support channel. what language are you speaking. the other letters you posted just came out garbage here.
[10:49] <blazemonger> u know u want to put out windows seven
[10:49] <Emperor_Norton> sorry, I meant kde apps in gnome
[10:50] <Azhi_Dahaka> any ideas?
[10:50] <faemir> Emperor_Norton: yeh, log into kde and make the them look like your gnome theme
[10:50] <jrib> !please > Azhi_Dahaka (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:50] <ikaruga> beagle is not working in kde... i put some pdfs in my home folder about two weeks ago, and they still dont show up
[10:50] <Emperor_Norton> huh?
[10:50] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, exit
[10:50] <infodroid> thanks jrib, i'm lookin into it
[10:50] <pavs> ok slightly offtopic. is there somekind of snort-package. that installs everything including mysql, Acid etc etc? with a nice frontend GUI.
[10:51] <LinkinPark> 
[10:51] <blazemonger> did someone say Acid?!:?!?!??!
[10:51] <SteveBallmer> ikaruga: Have you tried looking in your home folder.
[10:51] <blazemonger> where?!?!?!
[10:51] <predaeus> Azhi_Dahaka, try if you the camera got mounted, so you can use it as a regular disk
[10:51] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, done. quit out of gedit.
[10:51] <jrib> blazemonger: try to stay on topic
[10:51] <Azhi_Dahaka> how
[10:51] <SteveBallmer> ...
[10:51] <infodroid> jrib: yep it lists the GPG keys in the sources.list - though i feel this should be on a wiki somewhere...
[10:51] <Azhi_Dahaka> if it's not an issue for jrib for me to ask for help
[10:51] <SteveBallmer> ikaruga: Is beagle started from cron?
[10:51] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, type in 192.168.1.1
[10:52] <blazemonger> jrib: i'll stop popping adderall :)
[10:52] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, in a terminal window?
[10:52] <VERTiG0> or in, say, firefox?
[10:52] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, no, in that gedit window
[10:52] <CoOlGhOsT> wols_: seems like my drive doesnt support smart
[10:52] <LinkinPark>   )
[10:52] <Azhi_Dahaka> predaeus: how do i do that?
[10:52] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, bad advice earlier, I meant to type exit in my own terminal
[10:52] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, okay.
[10:52] <SteveBallmer> Finally ops doing the right thing.
[10:52] <predaeus> Azhi_Dahaka, not sure, see if it got mounted under /media/disk
[10:53] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, oh, haha.  so I should have /etc/resolve.conf open in gedit, and type 192.168.1.1 in there?
[10:53] <ikaruga> SteveBallmer: i don't know... all i know is that it works fine in gnome
[10:53] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, yep
[10:53] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, done!
[10:53] <Azhi_Dahaka> nope
[10:53] <Azhi_Dahaka> nothing
[10:53] <SteveBallmer> ikaruga: What is the path of the pdfs?
[10:53] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, Now  in  a terminal, ping www.google.com
[10:53] <SteveBallmer> Don't say "my homefolder."
[10:54] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, after saving resolv.conf with 192.168.1.1 in it as the only text?
[10:54] <LinkinPark> 
[10:54] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, yep
[10:54] <wols_> CoOlGhOsT: is it a sub attached drive? if no: then it does support smart
[10:54] <sidux> psusi: how to omit the boot splash?
[10:54] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, all that file does is tell your box where the dns server is
[10:54] <Azhi_Dahaka> but there's an USB camera icon on my desktop
[10:54] <ubuntuEdgy> omit?
[10:54] <CoOlGhOsT> wols_: sub attached?
[10:54] <psusi> sidux: change the command line to say nosplash instead of splash
[10:54] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, "ping: unknown host www.google.com"
[10:54] <Azhi_Dahaka> it just can't connect to it
[10:54] <wols_> usb attached
[10:55] <CoOlGhOsT> wols_: its a WD my book
[10:55] <ikaruga> SteveBallmer: /home/uri/PDFs
[10:55] <wols_> CoOlGhOsT: ok, ten it won't work. ask WD
[10:55] <synoptic> hey all
[10:55] <sidux> psusi:thx
[10:55] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[10:55] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, then try it again
[10:55] <novato_br> how can I get linux version with line command?
[10:55] <CoOlGhOsT> wols_: why wont it work with a WD?
[10:56] <phreekbird> hi guys, is there a way for me to install fiesty but with the edgy cdrom drivers ... for some reason when i install fiesty my cdrom dosnt work, when i install edgy it does, if i do a dist-upgrade in edgy to fiesty cdrom stops working
[10:56] <jrib> novato_br: uname -r  or  lsb_release -a  depending on what you mean
[10:56] <craigbass1976> novato_br, uname -a
[10:56] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, it's listing a LOT of errors
[10:56] <SteveBallmer> ikaruga: I sould say read the documentation and make sure that path is included in the search. Also make sure Beagle is getting started from cron (if that is how it indexes.)
[10:56] <novato_br> but i can GET on IRC with /exec
[10:56] <novato_br> do you got it?
[10:56] <sidux> psusi: his machine seems to have troubles with usb devices while booting (can't tell which). Strange, though.
[10:56] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, lots of "no such device" and whatnot
[10:56] <Azhi_Dahaka> disconnected it and reconnected... konkeror error
[10:56] <SteveBallmer> ikaruga: You don't really need Beagle though. The find command is great.

[10:57] <Azhi_Dahaka> digicam, not webcam
[10:57] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, those are probably all of the other interfaces mentioned in your file
[10:57] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, your /etc/network/interfaces
[10:57] <malomalo> hello boys
[10:57] <predaeus> Azhi_Dahaka, oh, sorry, didn't realize the cam command linked to webcams
[10:57] <SteveBallmer> !rms
[10:57] <ubotu> rms is Richard Matthew Stallman, founder of the GNU project. See !gnu and also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Stallman
[10:57] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, when it's all done, try pinging google again
[10:57] <SteveBallmer> Haha.
[10:57] <mortuis99> what is a good development tool/language for someone to start to learn to develop apps for linux?
[10:58] <ar3ac> mortuis99, www.python.org
[10:58] <craigbass1976> Isn't SteveBallmer some sort of open source guru as well?   ;)
[10:58] <ikaruga> SteveBallmer: don't take this personal ... but that's a lame answer.... the linux equivalent to a windows indexing service is one of the reasons I switched over.... if it doesn't work, then it's just one more reason to switch back
[10:58] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, again "ping: unknown host www.google.com"
[10:58] <jrib> mortuis99: python is very powerful and also very good for beginners as well as experts
[10:58] <phreekbird> hi guys, is there a way for me to install fiesty but with the edgy cdrom drivers ... for some reason when i install fiesty my cdrom dosnt work, when i install edgy it does, if i do a dist-upgrade in edgy to fiesty cdrom stops working
[10:58] <SteveBallmer> modconfig: Python sucks, you want to learn C.
[10:58] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, cat /etc/resolv.conf
[10:58] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, and also do an ifconfig
[10:58] <j-> I have a samsung monitor that supports multiple orientations (0, 90, 180); how can I enable this in X ?
[10:58] <SteveBallmer> mortuis99: C is the best language for beginners.
[10:58] <modconfig> SteveBallmer, umm, i do know C
[10:59] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, both done.
[10:59] <Azhi_Dahaka> and the DigitalCamera howto is a Piece of Crap
[10:59] <habeeb> Anyone here playing WoW with Wine?
[10:59] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, What did they say?  cat reads a file.  Was there anything in your terminal when you catted the resolv.conf file?
[10:59] <cdavis> what command can I use to find out what packge provides glibc.h ?
[11:00] <jrib> cdavis: apt-file or packages.ubuntu.com
[11:00] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, cat came back with "192.168.1.1"  and that was it
[11:00] <SteveBallmer> mortuis99: Once you have mastered pointers, arrays, functions, primitives, and linking in C, you will probably want to learn C++ because classes are useful.
[11:00] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, And what was the output of ifconfig?
[11:00] <SteveBallmer> Any good application that runs on Linux was written in C/C++.
[11:00] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, a lot of stuff.  about 20 lines worth.
[11:00] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, go to rafb.net and make a paste, then come back here and paste the link
[11:00] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, 2 sections, split by a blank line, 1st section is "eth0" and the 2nd section is "lo"
[11:01] <habeeb> SteveBallmer: or not.
[11:01] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, Oh, yeah, you're not onlne with the box.  Forget it
[11:01] <Azhi_Dahaka> "Downloading pictures from your digital camera is easy, if you have the right camera. If you do, just plug it in. Easy as that. After that a window comes up asking you whether you want to upload your pictures. Click upload and you're done!"
[11:01] <mortuis99> ok i am looking at C and Python
[11:01] <VERTiG0> yeah, heheh
[11:01] <Azhi_Dahaka> that's the whole howto... how INSIGHTFUL!
[11:01] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, i can type it out if you like. shouldn't take a minute or more.
[11:01] <SteveBallmer> mortuis99: Once you have mastered C/C++, other languages like Java will be easy to learn.
[11:01] <jrib> Azhi_Dahaka: where does your camera get mounted to?
[11:01] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, let me make a paste, and you tell me if it's anywhere close
[11:01] <Azhi_Dahaka> it doesn't
[11:02] <Azhi_Dahaka> it doesn't appear on df -h
[11:02] <jrib> Azhi_Dahaka: didn't you say it showed up on your desktop?
[11:02] <SteveBallmer> mortuis99: But whatever you do, avoid POS interpreted languages like Python.
[11:02] <ls_> hello
[11:02] <mortuis99> i know some java took classes in it in school
[11:02] <Azhi_Dahaka> it's an icon, but konqueror doesn't load anything
[11:02] <Kung|Foo> Anyone had any luck getting the Belkin F5D9050 usb wireless adapter to work?
[11:02] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, http://rafb.net/p/bjQOUb60.html
[11:02] <wols_> CoOlGhOsT: it won't work ovre usb
[11:02] <SteveBallmer> mortuis99: Java isn't a very good language, it is like a crippled C++.
[11:02] <Ayarcy> What's the best way to create custom .deb packages?
[11:02] <jrib> Azhi_Dahaka: does "mount" show anything?
[11:02] <mortuis99> i was just using it for web dev is all
[11:02] <jrib> Ayarcy: help.ubuntu.com read the packaging guide
[11:03] <Ayarcy> Thanks.
[11:03] <ls_> guys I have problem with Gnome: it thorws error "Failed to execute dbus-launch to autolaunch D-Bus session" from gnome-settings-daemon
[11:03] <infodroid> Ayarcy:also checkinstall for the lazy
[11:03] <Azhi_Dahaka> the mounted fs
[11:03] <ls_> i'm stuck with black screen and mouse pointer
[11:03] <j-> ls_; I was getting a similar problem a while ago
[11:03] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, it look just like that, of course with different data transfer numbers and IP addresses and junk.
[11:03] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, but otherwise the same
[11:03] <nullkuhl> guys plz help i have installed ubuntu and my sound card is working fine only that the laptop speakers arent very well  , 2speakers are working but no sound coming out from the sub woofer . i tried installed realtek driver from thier site but still no luck plz help ?
[11:03] <ls_> how did u fix it?
[11:03] <Azhi_Dahaka> but as i told you, the camera doesn't comes up with df
[11:03] <Doctor_> hmmm, firefox isn't rendering pages
[11:03] <SteveBallmer> mortuis99: Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie's The C Programming Language is the first thing you should read, no matter what language you decide learn.
[11:03] <j-> ls_; did you try to manually start the daemon ?
[11:03] <wols_> SteveBallmer: you do justive to your nick. you talks just as much BS as your namesake
[11:03] <ls_> nope
[11:04] <blazemonger> Microsoft Hit By U.S. DOT Ban On Windows Vista, Explorer 7, and Office 2007  i wonder if this is true
[11:04] <jrib> Azhi_Dahaka: try to use my name or I'll miss what you say.  Paste the relevant line of output from "mount"
[11:04] <ls_> let me try
[11:04] <rambo3> !ot
[11:04] <Azhi_Dahaka> jrib: there's no relevant line on mount
[11:04] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[11:04] <ls_> what is the command for that daemon?
[11:04] <SteveBallmer> wols_: Just saving people from wasting their time on limited languages like Python.
[11:04] <Azhi_Dahaka> that's whay i'm saying
[11:04] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, Ok then, I wonder if there's either a bad port on your router, or the cable needs to be wiggled.  Before checking that, try ping 216.239.51.99
[11:05] <jrib> Azhi_Dahaka: what did you mean by "the mounted fs"?
[11:05] <Chore-Boy> well hey, im having this problem with installing diablo, i get the main program installed, but when i put the expansion disk in, i click the setup file (in wine) and it tells me to insert the expansion disk (the disk thats already in the cd-rom) any ideas anybody
[11:05] <SteveBallmer> If you're going to waste time on a language that limits the potential of your work to that extent, you might as well learn mIRC script.
[11:05] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, 1st one came back, then 3 "destination unreachable," and its STILL going
[11:05] <j-> ls_; "sudo dbus-launch",  I think
[11:05] <ls_> lemme try
[11:05] <rambo3> !ot | SteveBallmer
[11:05] <ubotu> SteveBallmer: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[11:05] <Azhi_Dahaka> df -h shows the mounted filesystems and its space usage
[11:05] <Azhi_Dahaka> the camera doesn't shows up mounted
[11:06] <wols_> SteveBallmer: I'm sure you can tell me how python is limited
[11:06] <ericG> installed Wine (added repository and list, did an "update" and sudo get-apt install... verified at 0.9.39.. but as it was installing kept kicking out permission errors on directory permissions
[11:06] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, so you're just not getting out at all.  Is your router lit up showing that there's a computer plugged into whatever port the ubuntu box is on?
[11:06] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976: hasn't stopped taking in stuff.  lots of lines that say "warning, time of day goes back (-204795641us), taking countermeasures."
[11:06] <ProN00b> how can i turn my screen off after one minute of idle time ?
[11:06] <SteveBallmer> wols_: Try writing some kernel modules in Python sometime and tell me what you think.
[11:06] <VERTiG0> yes craigbass1976, it is lit up
[11:06] <jrib> Azhi_Dahaka: prefix what you say with my name please... What camera?  What does dmesg say when you plug in the camera?
[11:06] <ericG> synaptic package manager verifies it's installed and at .39
[11:06] <VERTiG0> it's the only one that isn't flashing though
[11:06] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, what the...
[11:06] <ProN00b> how can i turn my screen off after one minute of idle time, so its really off and not just blank ?
[11:07] <wols_> SteveBallmer: try write a rapid prototype one time in C and do likewise. or a fast shell script
[11:07] <VERTiG0> craigbass1976, hah, yeah.  if you're stumped, i'm completely off of it here :)
[11:07] <predaeus> !repeat | ProN00b
[11:07] <ubotu> ProN00b: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[11:07] <jrib> SteveBallmer: lets move the language debate to #ubuntu-offtopic, I think mortuis got his answer already
[11:07] <ProN00b> predaeus, hey, i added something to my question
[11:07] <mortuis99> and is now really confused
[11:07] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, If you want to leave and come back, try unplugging the windows line (just on the computer end) and plug that into the ubuntu box, then try pinging again
[11:07] <SteveBallmer> wols_: I have no proble writing prototypes in C.
[11:08] <VERTiG0> I will try that.
[11:08] <VERTiG0> brb.
[11:08] <wols_> SteveBallmer: or a web app
[11:08] <predaeus> ProN00b, sorry, my fault.
[11:08] <Azhi_Dahaka> jrib: how can i know what's the relevant message on dmesg?
[11:08] <SteveBallmer> wols_: I have done that too. (But I don't use cgi).
[11:08] <Azhi_Dahaka> the camera is a kodak easyshare c533
[11:08] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, It's just hard; I have an infant who just went to sleep, but a toddler whose favorite thing to do is run around and be loud
[11:08] <jrib> Azhi_Dahaka: type dmesg right before plugging it in and then right after plugging it in and look for what is different at the end
[11:08] <Azhi_Dahaka> nothing
[11:08] <cilugnedon> Hello @all. I'm looking for a software where I can make a picture show from my photos as mpg. Can anybody recommend something besides mencoder?
[11:08] <Kung|Foo> I take it no one has had luck with the Belkin F5D9050 Wireless USB adapter?
[11:09] <schidamb> Hi I'm unable to delete a file
[11:09] <jrib> Azhi_Dahaka: some cameras need you to press a button telling them to act as a storage device, does yours show anything on its screen when you plug it in?
[11:09] <schidamb> not sure how the file permission got into the mode of

[11:09] <ls_> j-, it does not work :(
[11:09] <genghis_> Hello!  I tried mounting a new HDD by following the instructions at http://daryl.learnhouston.com/2006/05/03/adding-a-hard-drive-to-a-ubuntu-linux-box/ but it didn't come back on reboot.  Can anyone help me figure this out?
[11:09] <SteveBallmer> Writing web apps in C (I actually use C++ for that) isn't bad at all, as long as you use something like fastcgi.
[11:09] <floriakir> is there a TagRunner-like program for linux that automatically adds the right id3-tags to audio-files? i tried TagRunner using wine but it doesn't work...
[11:09] <jrib> genghis_: what filesystem?
[11:09] <RHLinuxGUY> schidamb: do you know how to work a terminal?
[11:10] <Azhi_Dahaka> my camera works fine when connecting it on windows, jrib
[11:10] <genghis_> jrib: how can i tell?
[11:10] <wols_> Kung|Foo: have you googled?
[11:10] <Azhi_Dahaka> it just get recognized and works
[11:10] <schidamb> when I did ls -l the file permission says
[11:10] <Kung|Foo> wols_: Many times..
[11:10] <schidamb> ?r--rws--T 58 2268 1114767476 121 1970-03-23 14:06
[11:10] <Azhi_Dahaka> no need to push any weird buttons or condigurations, jrib
[11:10] <madhatter349> hey
[11:10] <SteveBallmer> Err, accidentally parted.
[11:10] <FFForever> is there a nice terminal irc client?"
[11:10] <floriakir> is there a TagRunner-like program for linux that automatically adds the right id3-tags to audio-files? i tried TagRunner using wine but it doesn't work...
[11:10] <genghis_> ext3 was what I tried to mount it as
[11:10] <ProN00b> SteveBallmer, thought about implementing them in the webserver ? would provide quite a speedgain; lighttpd might be a good architecture to start on
[11:10] <jrib> genghis_: what did you format it as?  Does it have any data on it?
[11:10] <wols_> Kung|Foo: and what drivers have you found you could try?
[11:10] <madhatter349> i cant see the start menu or what evr it called now
[11:10] <redbox> FFForever: irssi
[11:10] <SteveBallmer> Accidently. :\
[11:11] <wols_> FFForever: irssi
[11:11] <RHLinuxGUY> FFForever: bitchX
[11:11] <genghis_> yeah it has data on it I now need to keep.  I put it there before I rebooted
[11:11] <ls_> anyone experienced with "Failed to execute dbus-launch to autolaunch D-Bus session" I got this error on gnome session start from gnome-settings deamon

[11:11] <jrib> !fstab > genghis_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:11] <j-> ls_; try sudo dbus-daemon --system
[11:11] <FFForever> is ms going 2 sue me for using linux?
[11:11] <ericG> Is there no WINE channel?
[11:11] <wols_> Kung|Foo: well?
[11:11] <jrib> !offtopic | FFForever
[11:11] <ubotu> FFForever: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[11:11] <jrib> ericG: #winehq
[11:12] <ericG> thanks
[11:12] <FFForever> that is related to ubuntu though.....
[11:12] <ls_> j-, but I wonder why I got this error and how to solve it :/
[11:12] <Kung|Foo> wols_: Well I found info about the ndiswrapper and using the .inf file from the belkin cd.. but it doesn't seem to install the driver.
[11:12] <SteveBallmer> ProN00b: I like lighthttpd quite well. I've also worked on my own httpd in C.
[11:12] <lmvhl> can some1 link me to a site with dual boot directions (winxp)?
[11:12] <Azhi_Dahaka> jrib: http://www.pastebin.ca/575105
[11:12] <jrib> SteveBallmer: I'm going to ban you if you continue
[11:12] <madhatter349> i dont see the launcher anymore
[11:12] <wols_> Kung|Foo: I did one search and found it on the first page of google reuslts. I doubt you have searched
[11:12] <ProN00b> SteveBallmer, uuh, making your own is hard
[11:12] <bronze-> Anyone know where I can get a room in a decent teamspeak server?
[11:12] <ProN00b> SteveBallmer, well, a complete implementation is
[11:12] <wols_> Kung|Foo: http://www.google.de/search?q=Linux+F5D9050+belkin&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a
[11:13] <Kung|Foo> wols_: I have probably been on the same page..
[11:13] <wols_> Kung|Foo: what does lsusb say
[11:13] <jrib> Azhi_Dahaka: nothing new shows up with 'sudo fdisk -l'?
[11:13] <SteveBallmer> Not really that hard IMO.
[11:13] <predaeus> bronze-, just browser servers inside teamspeak
[11:13] <madhatter349> anybody
[11:13] <julle_> Does TightVNC come with a server aswell as a viewer?
[11:13] <Kung|Foo> wols_: Ok, for one it's in dutch, and the first result is on a french forum
[11:14] <Azhi_Dahaka> jrib: nope
[11:14] <wols_> Kung|Foo: it's not dutch. but you can see the search terms. enter it in your google
[11:14] <wols_> and I asked you something
[11:14] <craigbass1976> VERTiG0, How's it coming?
[11:14] <jrib> Azhi_Dahaka: well, I've found your solution in spanish I think... help me translate http://www.ubuntu-es.org/index.php?q=node/33043
[11:14] <madhatter349> could somebody please help me my desktop doesnt seem to contain the startmenu and the way to switch between desktops

[11:16] <shoot^> guys, i installed feisty on my laptop earlier, now it is refusing to boot past POST, wont load from CD or HDD, or even allow me into the BIOS. This bloke had a similar problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=473543&page=2 ...any ideas, or is my laptop bricked?
[11:16] <ubotu> schidamb: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[11:16] <schidamb> oops, sorry
[11:17] <jrib> schidamb: join me in #ubuntu-classroom
[11:17] <schidamb> ok
[11:17] <LinAsH> madhatter349, you need to install xubuntu-default-settings
[11:17] <Chore-Boy> ok, my cdrom wont stop spinning, its not mounted, and the activity light is on....
 i had it then i restarted and it woesnt there
[11:18] <Kung|Foo> wols_: I have not gotten the same results after many google searches, there seems to be a solution on one of the pages (Not the first as you said, since it was in french) that I will try that I haven't found yet. I definitely don't appreciate your attitude and assumption that I in fact did not google search this issue, but thanks anyway.
[11:18] <LinAsH> madhatter349, try to remove .config/xfce4 and restart your session
[11:18] <wols_> Kung|Foo: will you answer my question, yes or no?
[11:18] <Kung|Foo> wols_: What was your question?
[11:18] <madhatter349> thanks ill try
[11:18] <citiskyline_> Hi. What do I need to install to play DVD's on my machine?
[11:18] <Emperor_Norton> Don't suppose there is a gdesklet for amarok?
[11:19] <wols_> Kung|Foo: scroll back
[11:19] <genii> julle_: To answer your query tightvnc comes with a server, commandline name is vncserver. Package is tightvncserver or xtightvncserver depending on what implementation you want
[11:19] <wols_> 23:13 < wols_> Kung|Foo: what does lsusb say
[11:19] <madhatter349> how do i remove it
[11:19] <wols_> madhatter349: man rm
[11:19] <julle_> genii, does that work on WinXP aswell?
[11:19] <genghis_> jrib: I try mounting my disk manually, but it says the drive (/dev/sdb1) doesn't exist, yet /dev/sdb1 does show up when i use fdisk -l  (I'm also browsing TuxFiles, thanks for the resource)
[11:19] <LinAsH> madhatter349, rm -R .config/xfce4
[11:19] <citiskyline_> What do I need to install to play DVD's?
[11:20] <Kung|Foo> wols_: I don't see anything anywhere about an lsusb

[11:21] <julle_> genii, ok great, thank you once again!

[11:23] <VERTiG0> uh oh, where did craigbass1976 go?  :(
[11:23] <LinAsH> cormarrr, you can only do that on Wednesday ;)
[11:23] <Kung|Foo> wols_: And if I were on my computer at home running linux, how would I be on the internet chatting in here if I can't get my wireless adapter running?
[11:24] <cormarrr> LinAsH, curses! lol, no really, how can I do it?
[11:24] <wols_> Kung|Foo: wired networking for example. 2nd computer, etc
[11:24] <LinAsH> cormarrr, right click on bottom right applet
[11:24] <wols_> Kung|Foo: can you please answer my question?
[11:24] <Kung|Foo> wols_: And if you have one computer?
[11:24] <citiskyline_> predaeus, libdvdread3 doesn't exist

[11:25] <citiskyline_> wols_ thanks
[11:25] <predaeus> citiskyline_, if you are on feist you might have to enable extra repositories, i can find it here
[11:25] <Sharalynn> hola
[11:25] <genghis_> jrib should i paste that too?
[11:25] <phreekbird>  is there a way for me to install fiesty but with the edgy cdrom drivers ... for some reason when i install fiesty my cdrom dosnt work, when i install edgy it does, if i do a dist-upgrade in edgy to fiesty cdrom stops working
[11:25] <jrib> genghis_: yeah
[11:25] <citiskyline_> predaeus, i'm using 6.10
[11:25] <citiskyline_> predaeus, live cd
[11:26] <Sharalynn> Hello all
[11:26] <Kung|Foo> wols_: It seems that someone has found a driver from serialmonkey.com that works, to answer your question
[11:26] <madhatter349_> linash it didnt work
[11:26] <wols_> Kung|Foo: ok, just checking. yes ralink should work

[11:27] <madhatter349_> i tried rm but didnt seem to help
[11:27] <citiskyline_> predaeus, I'm still a beginner - where are the repositories?
[11:27] <genghis_> jrib: one moment, i'll try it
[11:27] <citiskyline_> predaeus, I tried synaptic
[11:27] <LinAsH> madhatter349, maybe you need to logout from xfce before removing the .config/xfce4 since it maybe automatically saved at logout
[11:27] <predaeus> citiskyline_, enable all repositories in synaptic and press the update button then search again
[11:27] <citiskyline_> ok
[11:28] <genghis_> jrib: it says no such file or directory when I try ls /dev/sdb1
[11:28] <predaeus> citiskyline_, Settings/Repositories/   then hit reload on the main window
[11:28] <ubuntuEdgy> im trying to eject my cd tray and it keeps saying it cant mount it,

[11:31] <Ind[y] > My wireless network has a password. I gave it once for being connected, and the Keyring Manager asked me to create a password. I did so, but everytime I turn on my pc and it tries to connect, the Keyring Manager asks me for the password because it says the keyring is locked. How can I set it not to ask for password but to connect automatically?
[11:31] <phreekbird> if anyone is willing to help me out then send me a tell ... im tired of spamming sendiing the same exact question over and over and for what? coase fiesty dosnt have cdrom drivers the edgy dose! .... screw this im back to windblows

[11:31] <wols_> cdgedo you have a /dev/.static/dev? with a sdb1 in there?
[11:31] <ubuntuEdgy> that wasnt very clear ...............
[11:31] <wols_> doh:
[11:31] <wols_> genghis_: ^^
[11:31] <wols_> genghis_: if you do have it, mount it manually just for kicks
[11:31] <genghis_> wols_: when I did that it claimed the device didn't exist
[11:31] <tonio_> hi here
[11:31] <genghis_> wols_: even though it shows up on my fdisk -l list

[11:31] <tonio_> hi SkippySkip1234
[11:31] <ubuntuEdgy> hi skip
[11:31] <wols_> genghis_: does your kernel know about dbg?
[11:32] <wols_> *sdb
[11:32] <wols_> genghis_: use dmesg or kern.log to check
[11:32] <jrib> genghis_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=132094 is someone with a similar issue
[11:32] <tonio_> i cannot find any flshplayer for mozilla with 64bits system
[11:32] <ubuntuEdgy> im trying to aject a cd and i get Unable to mount media.
[11:32] <tonio_> any idea ?
[11:32] <wols_> tonio_: cause it does not exist. blame adobe
[11:32] <predaeus> BTB_Johan, the system monitor thingy in GNOME can tell you available space
[11:32] <wols_> *daobe
[11:32] <genghis_> wols_: just type dmseg in terminal?
[11:32] <wols_> dmesg |grep sdb
[11:32] <tonio_> wols_, and what can i do ? no plash at all ?
[11:32] <wols_> tonio_: workarounds with 32bit flash
[11:33] <BTB_Johan> I want disk usage KiB / s read and write and that kind of stuff

[11:33] <SkippySkip1234> I've been using Ubuntu for a few months and have had minimal frustrations, but my Windows partition is messed up.  I have some programs (Napster, etc.) that I would still like to use and I am wondering if you know of any how-to's on re-installing Windows with GRUB in place
[11:34] <wols_> genghis_: your hdd or its cable or your hdd controler are dead
[11:34] <genghis_> jrib: i'm running fiesty not breezy, but I'll keep reading. Thx btw
[11:34] <genghis_> wols_: why did it work before then?
[11:34] <kdubois> !grub Ind[y] 
[11:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about grub ind[y]  - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:34] <Ind[y] > kdubois: ?
[11:34] <kdubois> !grub
[11:34] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[11:34] <Nicke_> Ind[y] : Is the password for your keyring the same as the password you use to login with?
[11:34] <LinAsH> Ind[y] , the only way to do that was to type a blank password for the keyring manager
[11:35] <wols_> genghis_: on the very off chance it's a software glitch: turn off your PC totally and poewr it back on. if you still ahve those problems: hardware checking time
[11:35] <Ind[y] > Nicke_: no
[11:35] <unagi> !wireless mouse
[11:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wireless mouse - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:35] <erUSUL> phreekbird: maybe you can use the edgy kernel after the upgrade? keep in mind that in feisty new drivers are used to handle pata ide devices and that disks now appear as /dev/sd** and atapi devices (like cdroms and burners) appear as /dev/sdc* so maybe you have to reconfigure some apps
[11:35] <Ind[y] > LinAsH: oh, ok.
[11:35] <Nicke_> LinAsH: I think it's possible to do if the keyring password matches the login password, but it may need some fiddling with pam
[11:35] <genghis_> wols_: are you sure I edited fstab properly?  I usually find things like this are my own fault......
[11:35] <wols_> unagi: wireless mice are usually nothing different from rodents with a tail
[11:35] <erUSUL> phreekbird: also you may want to report the issue as a bug/regression on launchpad
[11:35] <LinAsH> Nicke_, it doesn't
[11:35] <erUSUL> !bugs | phreekbird
[11:35] <unagi> thats cool

[11:35] <unagi> but i need to figure out how to get mine to work
[11:35] <wols_> genghis_: these errors have nothing to do with fstabe. it's hdd sense errors
[11:36] <unagi> i did it before but i added an extra quote and locked out my X server
[11:36] <unagi> that was scary
[11:36] <unagi> lol

[11:36] <Gerrit> citiskyline_: Then there are probably between one and three mistakes in the program.
[11:36] <genghis_> wols_: okay... you've got a point..  I'll try some more hardware related stuff.  (and jrib, i'll bookmark that thread, thanks!)

[11:38] <citiskyline_> jrib, what is build-essential
[11:38] <smoopuppy2> i have installed it 19 times and i cant get it to work
[11:38] <bbhrawks> Welcome to another edition of the internets. :)
[11:38] <jrib> citiskyline_: the package that contains the essential programs you need to build stuff
[11:38] <Gerrit> citiskyline_: I'm not sure, I'm not a programmer.
[11:38] <citiskyline_> Gerrit, o. ok sorry
[11:38] <bbhrawks> smoopuppy2>  What can't you get to work? :O

[11:40] <SkippySkip1234> I've been using Ubuntu for a few months and have had minimal frustrations, but my Windows partition is messed up.  I have some programs (Napster, etc.) that I would still like to use and I am wondering if you know of any how-to's on re-installing Windows without harming GRUB/Ubuntu
[11:40] <robdeman> hi all

[11:40] <wols_> SkippySkip1234: not possible. grub will always be harmed
[11:40] <wols_> grub | SkippySkip1234
[11:41] <wols_> !grub | SkippySkip1234
[11:41] <ubotu> SkippySkip1234: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto

[11:42] <Boris__> What's the point of easter eggs in Ubuntu?
[11:42] <ubuntuEdgy> what tool can i use to make a dvd that can be watch on a dvd player ? the file is in mpg format.
[11:42] <Gerrit>  !easter eggs
[11:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about easter eggs - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:42] <LinAsH> wlfR, Edtit/Plugins/Cover art
[11:42] <Boris__> Gerrit: I don't get why they include them.
[11:42] <wlfR> LinAsH, I can't configure it but it's "ticked"
[11:42] <ubuntuEdgy> Boris__: where you get that name from ?
[11:43] <Boris__> ubuntuEdgy: what name?
[11:43] <ubuntuEdgy> Boris__:
[11:43] <LinAsH> wlfR, and it doesn't work?
[11:43] <arreola> can someone help me delete Skype ?
[11:43] <Boris__> ubuntuEdgy: It's a name, and I inserted 2 underscores since it existed.
[11:43] <smoopuppy2> I found an easy way to get a sprint or verizion evdo card working with ubuntu
[11:44] <smoopuppy2> if anyone is interested let me know
[11:44] <wlfR> LinAsH, nope, and I truly don't know why
[11:44] <ubuntuEdgy> "i dont like it"
[11:44] <jrib> smoopuppy2: best to add that kind of info at wiki.ubuntu.com
[11:44] <LinAsH> wlfR, normally it should fecth cover from amazon
[11:44] <smoopuppy2> willdo
[11:44] <wlfR> LinAsH, can you configure your setting with it?
[11:44] <sidux> arreola:http://monkeyblog.org/ubuntu/installing/ ?
[11:44] <LinAsH> wlfR, no
[11:45] <darek> hallo
[11:45] <Gerrit> Boris__: I don't know any.
[11:45] <Gerrit> Boris__: I'm not aware of any easter eggs.
[11:45] <joe4444> i just tried to install Feisty and everything seemed to work until the installation was done and i rebooted... i kept getting "Error 15: File not found" so now i'm on the live cd trying to figure out what went wrong...
[11:45] <joe4444> i mounted /dev/sda1 and it looks ok, although i'm not really sure what i should be looking for
[11:46] <Ayarcy> joe4444: Last time that happened to me, it was the grub configuration.
[11:46] <arreola> sidux: thanks - i'll look into the link
[11:46] <Ayarcy> joe4444: I had to change the default hd(0,0) to hd(0,2) for mine.
[11:46] <joe4444> Ayarcy: can i check that now or do i need to reboot and enter grub?
[11:46] <tonio_> nspluginwrapper: /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so is not a valid NPAPI plugin
[11:46] <tonio_> any idea ?
[11:46] <phreekbird> is there a way for me to install fiesty but with the edgy cdrom drivers ... for some reason when i install fiesty my cdrom dosnt work, when i install edgy it does, if i do a dist-upgrade in edgy to fiesty cdrom stops working
[11:46] <sidux> arreola: basically sudo apt-get remove <packagename> should do the trick
[11:46] <Ayarcy> joe4444: No, don't reboot.  Look in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:47] <jrib> tonio_: worked fine if I put it in ~/.mozilla/plugins/
[11:47] <erUSUL> phreekbird: have you see my msgs?
[11:47] <wlfR> LinAsH, so strange that it dosen't fetch then, because everything else seems to work and the CD i have in the cd slot now is Queen should be found
[11:47] <sidux> arreola: sudo apt-get remove --purge <packagename> should remove it completely
[11:47] <Ayarcy> joe4444: Looks like they're of the form "(hd0,0)", which is a little different than what I said.
[11:47] <tonio_> ok jrib
[11:48] <LinAsH> wlfR, I think it worked only with tagged mp3/ogg/wma
[11:48] <Ind[y] > Each time I login to Skype, the contact echo123 gets added to my contact list. I remove it, but the next time it is there again. How can I stop this?
[11:48] <joe4444> Ayarcy: this could be the problem... there is no /boot/grub/
[11:48] <phreekbird> erUSUL: nope sure havn't
[11:48] <wlfR> but if I copy the cd to the computer should it be tagged right LinAsH
[11:48] <bbhrawks> Ind[y] >  Isn't that a Skype test bot?
[11:48] <wlfR> and then should it fetch the a-art
[11:48] <Ayarcy> joe4444: Did you create a separate /boot partition?
[11:48] <erUSUL> phreekbird: maybe you can use the edgy kernel after the upgrade? keep in mind that in feisty new drivers are used to handle pata ide devices and that disks now appear as /dev/sd** and atapi devices (like cdroms and burners) appear as /dev/sdc* so maybe you have to reconfigure some apps
[11:48] <erUSUL> phreekbird: also you may want to report the issue as a bug/regression on launchpad
[11:49] <ballu19> hi, how can i map the middle mouse click on a keyboard ?
[11:49] <erUSUL> !bugs > phreekbird
[11:49] <Ayarcy> joe4444: Or maybe use a default partition scheme that made one for you?
[11:49] <bronze-> How do I get sound in counter-strike?
[11:49] <Ind[y] > bbhrawks: yes, but it gets added automatically each time, even when I tested with it and removed it
[11:49] <dromer> aaarg, still having massive problems with nvidia twinview, I have a 6200 with crt, dvi and s-video outputs, and crt's on the ctr and dvi outputs (with a standard converter), currently standard xorg.conf with DynamicTwinView = True does recognside the screen on the DVI output properly, it just can't output anything to the screen
[11:49] <arreola> sidux: thanks - the i went to the synaptic package manager
[11:49] <bbhrawks> Ind[y] >  I've never had that issue before.  Have you checked in with the Skype folk?
[11:49] <blinx> where I can get the latest beta or alpha?
[11:50] <Ind[y] > bbhrawks: where can I find them?
[11:50] <joe4444> Ayarcy: i already had Edgy installed, so i just booted the Feisty live cd and installed from there, choosing to reformat the whole /dev/sda1 drive (guided) ...it never prompted me for /boot/ or anything related to grub
[11:50] <arreola> sidux: marked it for complete removal - that did the trick. thanks again, for the help.
[11:50] <Ayarcy> joe4444: You can try looking in /etc/fstab on your mounted /dev/sda1 to see if there's a /boot partition, and if so, what partition it is.
[11:50] <citiskyline_> hi - how can I keep files from the currently installed os while isntalling ubuntu on the whole hd?
[11:51] <LinAsH> wlfR, check if the library registers correctly your files
[11:51] <tonio_> jrib, doesn't work
[11:51] <leonidas> hello all
[11:51] <jrib> tonio_: what error do you get
[11:52] <yaddayadda-> what commands should I use for diagnostics: my 6.06 LTS server just went off the network - no ping, no open port at all - but I'm still logged in via ssh and that connection is alive!
[11:52] <wlfR> LinAsH, please explain, I'm kind of new to this system as the most of everyone else
[11:52] <citiskyline_> or is it not possible?
[11:52] <omha> blinx, http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/tribe1 BUT it's not recommanded, theres 30+- updates a day that probably will crash your machine
[11:53] <Ayarcy> yaddayadda-: Try /etc/init.d/ssh restart
[11:53] <citiskyline_> or is it?
[11:53] <Ayarcy> yaddayadda-: Does it say it restarts the service?
[11:53] <yaddayadda-> ayarcy: the problem is, samba etc are dead
[11:53] <yaddayadda-> if I kill ssh I probably won't be able to reconnect
[11:53] <mezziah> ok i know this is not the right place, but does anyone know how to sort the /list output by the amount of users logged in in those channels?
[11:53] <bbhrawks> Ind[y] >  I looked around, not finding anything here, either.
[11:54] <tonio_> jrib, tonio@tonio-desktop:~/.mozilla/firefox/plugins$ nspluginwrapper -i home/tonio/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
[11:54] <citiskyline_> is it possible to keep old files on the hd before installing ubuntu?
[11:54] <tonio_> nspluginwrapper: home/tonio/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so is not a valid NPAPI plugin
[11:54] <Ind[y] > :/
[11:54] <Ind[y] > ok
[11:54] <Ayarcy> yaddayadda-: I had an LTS server do the same thing to me -- I found it today.  I had to reinstall openssh-server.  No idea why, other than that /usr/sbin/sshd was gone.
[11:54] <joe4444> Ayarcy: there's no /boot/ in either my backup /etc/fstab (Edgy) or the the new /etc/fstab (Feisty) ...the only difference is the new one for Feisty refers to my SATA DVD drive as /dev/scd0 whereas the backup refers to it as /dev/hda
[11:54] <yaddayadda-> ayarcy: trying now...
[11:54] <mezziah> citiskyline_: yes, except the partition you wish to install ubuntu on
[11:54] <joe4444> ...also the backup fstab includes a line to mount my 2nd hard drive (IDE)
[11:54] <LinAsH> wlfR, go to Music/Import Folder and choose your music folder, then also check Edit/Preference/Music tab and set the library to your music folder
[11:55] <citiskyline_> mezziah, what do you mean?\
[11:55] <citiskyline_> mezziah, so there's no backup option if I want to erase the entire drive (no partitions)
[11:55] <citiskyline_> ?
[11:55] <mezziah> citiskyline_: of course you can, you can still login with windows or a linux live cd
[11:55] <joe4444> Ayarcy: should i just reinstall from the livecd and choose the manual formatting option?
[11:55] <tck> Is there anyway to change the creation time of a file (or even find out when it was created NOT last accessed/modified)
[11:55] <yaddayadda-> ayarcy: my ssh connection is still alive, the service restarted fine, but there is still no way to connect to the server: no ping comes back, no port is open, no new ssh connection
[11:56] <Ayarcy> joe4444: Hmm..  That shouldn't make a difference.  There's got to be a /boot in there somewhere, I'd think.  Can you mount all your drives, updatedb, and then locate menu.lst?
[11:56] <mezziah> and rescue your files from there
[11:56] <tonio_> jrib, any idea ?
[11:56] <andre_choy> wsa
[11:56] <andre_choy> wasa
[11:56] <doctordoog> I installed ubuntu server edition, and whenever I try to install with apt-get it requests for the install CD to be in, but it still downloads from the internet
[11:56] <andre_choy> hi
[11:56] <jrib> tonio_: what happens if you just run:  nspluginwrapper -a -i -v      without any additional arguments?
[11:56] <andre_choy> helo
[11:56] <jrib> andre_choy: stop
[11:56] <mezziah> man it's fast as hell here
[11:56] <droptek> I am having problems playing DVD's with Totem Video Player, even after installing libdvdcss2_1.2.9-1plf3_i386.deb
[11:56] <Ayarcy> yaddayadda-: Have you changed any settings since you made the existing SSH connection?"
[11:56] <doctordoog> would this be some line in the file where it's saying to look in the CD before the internet?
[11:56] <wlfR> LinAsH, that's the same folder!
[11:56] <LinAsH> Doctor_, remove the cd entry from /etc/apt/source.list
[11:56] <mezziah> citiskyline_: i guess you have more partitions than only the one you want to install ubuntu on, no?
[11:56] <tck> doctordoog, edit /etc/apt/sources/list and # out the deb-cdrom option, then try apt-get update
[11:57] <jrib> droptek: tell the channel exactly what problems you are having
[11:57] <citiskyline_> mezziah, yeah... i'll quit the live cd and backup.
[11:57] <mezziah> would be a good idea
[11:57] <LinAsH> wlfR, so does your music files appear in the library with the correct tags?
[11:57] <tck> doctordoog, /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:57] <droptek> Totem tells me that it can not play the dvd, to install the correct codec then restart

[11:58] <citiskyline_> is it possible to browse the existing hard drive from live cd?
[11:58] <tonio_> jrib, tht'as all....
[11:58] <tck> citiskyline_, yes
[11:58] <mezziah> yes, it's possible
[11:58] <erUSUL> citiskyline_: yes, just mount the partitions you want to access

[11:58] <doctordoog> thanks, tck
[11:58] <jrib> tonio_: join me in #ubuntu-classroom
[11:58] <tonio_> ok jrib
[11:59] <tck> citiskyline_, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_Mount_Windows_Partitions
[11:59] <citiskyline_> tck, it's a Fedora partition
[11:59] <joe4444> Ayarcy: i'm an idiot... i was looking for /boot/grub/ instead of /home/ubuntu/sda1/boot/grub/
[11:59] <tck> citiskyline_, ohh
[11:59] <erUSUL> citiskyline_: sudo mount -t <fstype> /dev/<partition_device> /mount/point (in livecd usually /mnt/)
[11:59] <droptek> it acutally calls them plugins not codecs..
[12:00] <citiskyline_> erUSUL, what would I fill in for fstype and partition_device?
[12:00] <tck> citiskyline_, it should really automount them,
[12:00] <joe4444> Ayarcy: menu.lst has hd(1,0) ...my hdd configuration is 1 ide and 1 sata drive, with Feisty installed on the sata drive, so would that be hd(2,0) instead?
[12:00] <tck> citiskyline_, -t ext2/3
[12:00] <tck> you can even leave that out afaik
[12:00] <mezziah> citiskyline_: regarding the partition device we only can guess, it's different on each system, but fstype is usually ext3
