[12:01] <Ubuntoo> i added a user yesterday ..
[12:01] <LCCUB> only used it for linux dcplusplus though
[12:01] <bnall> i have screenshots of the error
[12:01] <mattwj2005> it helps to a bunch of difficult programs
[12:01] <|Porsche> and you are trying to access the /home/k7 directory right?
[12:01] <mattwj2005> it is really nice :)
[12:01] <bobsomebody> Ubuntoo: when your in terminal does it show a # or $?
[12:01] <Ubuntoo> yeah
[12:01] <Ubuntoo> a $ yes
[12:01] <mattwj2005> skype is a good example
[12:01] <nerdboy1024> lol
[12:01] <bobsomebody> Ubuntoo: then you are not root
[12:02] <cilugnedon> Hi @all. Anybody in here having experience with fully system encryption using cryptsetup with LUKS and doing it with LVM?
[12:02] <Ubuntoo> and how am i automatically login as root?
[12:02] <bobsomebody> u can use sudo to exicute commands as root tho
[12:02] <|Porsche> do this command on the /home/k7  "ls -l"
[12:02] <Abu-Abudrahman> can i use Via S3 unichrome Vga under XGl or Compiz Fusion ?
[12:02] <bobsomebody> nah, use ls -la
[12:02] <nerdboy1024> anyone feel like giving me a hand with oracle
[12:02] <mattwj2005> after using automatrix2 and beryl....I want to tell Microsoft were to stick it :)
[12:03] <bobsomebody> zomg oracle
[12:03] <bobsomebody> use something else :P
[12:03] <nerdboy1024> oracle that bad
[12:03] <nerdboy1024> lol
[12:03] <bobsomebody> nah, expensive
[12:03] <mattwj2005> right now I am Ubuntu Fiesty 7.04
[12:03] <Golfnit> Hello All, I'm on 7.04 and have a FAT32 Corsair Voyager 16GB USB stick.  The OS is not recognizing the device.  What should I try?
[12:03] <mattwj2005> 64 bit :D
[12:03] <nerdboy1024> it is required for openbravo
[12:03] <bobsomebody> its a good DB sys, but i find the SQL alternatives better solutions because of price
[12:03] <bobsomebody> oh
[12:03] <bobsomebody> hm,
[12:03] <|Porsche> if it the results looks like this drwxr-xr-x then you shoudl be good to go but if it looks like dr--r---r--r  or something similar with just r's then you have to change the permissons on that folder
[12:04] <Ubuntoo> should I paste here the result? :) it's quite long ..
[12:04] <mwe> no
[12:04] <bobsomebody> only paste the line for the folder
[12:04] <|Porsche> nah its not necesary
[12:04] <nerdboy1024> hey, if u know a better RMS, with pos
[12:04] <cilugnedon> I've setup feisty on an lvm and I'm asking myself, what partition part I have to encrypt. I've read about doing in on the physical volume and not on the logical volumes.

[12:05] <bobsomebody> ah
[12:05] <Golfnit> tx
[12:06] <bobsomebody> i put the plug in on, but i only get a black box where the flash files are. I want to make sure its a prob w/ konqueror and not my site

[12:07] <nerdboy1024> :)
[12:07] <bobsomebody> ubuntoo: your already in the folder
[12:07] <bobsomebody> /home/k7
[12:07] <Ubuntoo> that's the folder /home/k7 ..
[12:07] <bobsomebody> what is ur prob? i missed that part
[12:07] <Flannel> fred_: you need to purge the package.  And also, apache-common is the package that has those files
[12:08] <Ubuntoo> |Porsche ...
[12:08] <nerdboy1024> :(
[12:08] <Ubuntoo> why are the folders locked after i copy them, and i cannot delete them?
[12:08] <fred_> flannel: what is the complete command
[12:08] <|Porsche> according to that user k7 can do whatever he wants with those files
[12:08] <bobsomebody> ubuntoo: use terminal : sudo rmdir (dirPATH)
[12:08] <pitecantropus> how to play wma streaming?
[12:08] <Flannel> fred_: sudo apt-get remove --purge [packages] , in your case, packages is apache and apache-common  Are you sure you have apache? not apache2?
[12:09] <|Porsche> execpt the linuxcpp one
[12:09] <dts_> i want to oppen a file in append mode "some/path/file" how do i have some/path automatically created if it doesn't exist?
[12:09] <fred_> Flannel: i have both and cant get apache2 to work
[12:09] <Ubuntoo> that will remove the files, or.? cause i need them
[12:09] <crabgrass> anyone know how to add custom emblems?
[12:09] <fred_> want to clean everything out and start again
[12:09] <wols_> dts_: what language?
[12:09] <bobsomebody> fred: then u probably just need to get rid of both and reinstall
[12:09] <Ubuntoo> to EDIT
[12:09] <bobsomebody> fred: are you on desktop or server?
[12:09] <Flannel> dts_: it will be.
[12:09] <fred_> desktop
[12:10] <bobsomebody> oh
[12:10] <bobsomebody> to edit
[12:10] <Ubuntoo> :)
[12:10] <RaverWild> hello people! important problem here - running feisty , last updated about 2 weeks ago (did not started the pc since then). i was unable to connect to my adsl provider. ran pppoeconf and it says could not detect my connection. checked - ppp instances were not running. i saw pppoediscovery does not work. this did not happened with the first release of feisty, neither with edgy. any help please?
[12:10] <matrillox> Ubuntu rules!!  :)
[12:10] <Flannel> fred_: alrght, this is feisty? or edgy/dapper?
[12:10] <bobsomebody> use sudo gedit path/filename
[12:10] <fred_> my problem is when i install apache2 i cant get it to start properly.....feisty
[12:10] <bobsomebody> fred: is it server or desktop
[12:10] <fred_> desktop
[12:10] <Ubuntoo> use sudo gedit /    -will work? :)
[12:10] <bobsomebody> (i have both :P)
[12:10] <wols_> RaverWild: ifconfig -a. and interfaces?
[12:11] <wols_> *any
[12:11] <Flannel> fred_: most likely not starting correctly because apache is already listening to port 80, and apache2 can't bind to it.  Remove apache, then restart apache2, see if it works
[12:11] <wastro> is there a way to get ubuntu to use a larger package base?
[12:11] <KrakensDen> bah
[12:11] <bobsomebody> Ubuntoo: umm that exact one wont work you need the file name
[12:11] <Flannel> bobsomebody: there's no diffference between them.

[12:11] <lebies> can anyone here help with a LAN networking problem (3 pc's + dsl router), can't ping 2nd feisty machine?
[12:11] <fred_> on a mac powerbook no less :)  im happy with everything except this thorny point
[12:11] <MatDanielMat> is this a good place to ask a question about apache
[12:11] <wastro> ok thanks
[12:11] <|Porsche> apache helicopter?
[12:11] <RaverWild> wols_ problem is i cant use linux now - i booted winxp to get help. on just ifconfig i get lo, eth0 and eth0:avah
[12:11] <bobsomebody> Flannel: there is a HUGE difference between desktop and server
[12:11] <Flannel> MatDanielMat: if it's about installing.  #apache is also a good place.
[12:11] <RaverWild> if this could help... :(
[12:12] <MatDanielMat> #apache
[12:12] <Flannel> bobsomebody: no, there's absolutely no difference at all.  They are the same thing, just with different packages installed.
[12:12] <Flannel> MatDanielMat: /join #apache
[12:12] <HardDisk> evening folks, I'd like to know, and I did try google first, why ubuntu decided to bork and not read either my cd drives unless I have to restart the pc, reads a cd, when i eject and insert another one doesn't show on desktop.
[12:12] <wols_> RaverWild: pppoe -I eth0 -A
[12:12] <bobsomebody> Flannel: ok, now that statement evaluates 1
[12:12] <bobsomebody> :P
[12:12] <crabgrass> HardDisk: sudo mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom0
[12:12] <detectiveinspekt> hello I can only get transfer rates of 2MB/s using samba is this normal, things seem slugish just using a crossover cable
[12:12] <bobsomebody> fred: i would recommend finding the server how-to's for installing apache
[12:12] <crabgrass> HardDisk: or whatever the correct params for your system are
[12:13] <dts_> wols_: python
[12:13] <RaverWild> wols_ than ks. will boot ubuntu again to try it. what should it do?
[12:13] <wols_> detectiveinspekt: not normal
[12:13] <HardDisk> but it was doing it automagically
[12:13] <bobsomebody> they where better than the desktop ones if u asked me
[12:13] <HardDisk> it would show a CD icon on the desktop
[12:13] <wols_> RaverWild: man pppoe
[12:13] <crabgrass> SUP /g/ !
[12:13] <detectiveinspekt> how long should a 700MB file take?
[12:13] <Flannel> fred_: did restarting apache2 after purging apache work?
[12:13] <detectiveinspekt> 100/10 cable
[12:13] <wols_> detectiveinspekt: depends a bit how good the 2 NICs are
[12:13] <fred_> whats that full purge command again...sorry:)
[12:14] <bobsomebody> detectiveinspekt, yeah that speed is right if your going to windows
[12:14] <detectiveinspekt> I'm sure I got 10MB/s
[12:14] <Flannel> fred_: `sudo apt-get remove --purge apache apache-common`
[12:14] <detectiveinspekt> normally in windows
[12:14] <zubeen> bbrazil:
[12:14] <wols_> detectiveinspekt: 10MB is OK for samba
[12:14] <bobsomebody> detectiveinspekt, how is your smb.conf set up? i had security user, but security share is better
[12:14] <wols_> pretty good actually
[12:14] <bobsomebody> wols: rolf ya!
[12:15] <mwe> it's great. samba transfers crawl here
[12:15] <Ubuntoo> lol, bobsomebody I need to be able to edit large amount of files/folders, as now, when i copy from dvd in my folder, but they get locked .. why?
[12:15] <bobsomebody> im happy when I hit 5mbps
[12:15] <bobsomebody> im like WOOT go BILL!
[12:15] <mwe> yeah
[12:15] <mwe> me too
[12:15] <wols_> mwe: depends a lot on NICs involved
[12:15] <fred_> ok purge completed
[12:15] <HardDisk> crabgrass nope nothing
[12:15] <|Porsche> Ubuntoo: Did you fix the problem?
[12:16] <bobsomebody> Ubuntoo: use the methods we showed you to examine the files you create, check the properties, make sure your not locking yourself out somewhere eelse
[12:16] <pitecantropus> how to play wma streaming?
[12:16] <detectiveinspekt> yea using share mode, I also am transfering to a external hdd on the laptop, there is no significate speed change, can't put the external hdd on this tho
[12:16] <Ubuntoo> when i start the pc i have to put the user/pass .. why should i often give the pass to some programs..?
[12:16] <mwe> wols_: I don't know why samba transfers crawl for me. I've seen other people have that problem. ftp/ssh work fine
[12:16] <Flannel> fred_: now, `sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart`
[12:16] <wols_> pitecantropus: w32codecs
[12:16] <Flannel> !sudo | Ubuntoo
[12:16] <ubotu> Ubuntoo: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:16] <crabgrass> HardDisk: try mount
[12:16] <crabgrass> HardDisk: see if it's on there
[12:16] <|Porsche> because those programs only root can run them
[12:16] <Flannel> Ubuntoo: you're escalating your privledges to do administrative tasks
[12:16] <HardDisk> no it isnt
[12:16] <bobsomebody> Ubuntuoo: just reset your root and re-log-in
[12:17] <bobsomebody> :P
[12:17] <Flannel> bobsomebody: please don't recommend that here.
[12:17] <Ubuntoo> how
[12:17] <Ubuntoo> :)
[12:17] <pitecantropus> tried w32codecs but not working in firefox
[12:17] <Flannel> Ubuntoo: you don't want to.  sudo is the way to go
[12:17] <mwe> pitecantropus: works here
[12:17] <HardDisk> crabgrass: like I said it was working fine, then decided not to work.
[12:17] <bobsomebody> hehe he was getting 10mbps comming off a USB too
[12:17] <niter3> Hi guys. I've just inserted the live cd to install Ubuntu. It's not detecting my monitor when it gets into X. I'm pretty sure it's because it's using a higher resolution.. How can I do this?
[12:17] <greg_g> !worksforme
[12:17] <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.
[12:17] <crabgrass> HardDisk: between reboots>?
[12:18] <niter3> Higher refresh rate sorry
[12:18] <Ubuntoo> ok Flannel but everytime? and that's a line command, I'm used to work with folders ..
[12:18] <Ubuntoo> like in win ..
[12:18] <bobsomebody> Flannel: sorry, but hey, sometimes letting ppl mess stuff up helps them learn faster :P
[12:18] <HardDisk> crabgrass: well it loads a cd when I boot, when i insert a different cd doesnt work, and I have two drives, same thing
[12:18] <bobsomebody> helped me a whole lota bunch

[12:18] <niter3> Hi guys. I've just inserted the live cd to install Ubuntu. It's not detecting my monitor when it gets into X. I'm pretty sure it's because it's using a higher refresh rate.. How can I do this?
[12:18] <crabgrass> HardDisk: did you unmount before ejecting?
[12:19] <HardDisk> crabgrass: I did remove acetone2 and installed nautilus scripts to mount/unmount
[12:19] <mwe> pitecantropus: seems to hang
[12:19] <Flannel> Ubuntoo: It caches your password for 10 minutes, so you only have to do it whn you haven't used it for 10 minutes.  To open a file browser with higher privs, alt-f2 (that's the run dialog), then `gksu nautilus`, and close that window AS SOON AS you're done.
[12:19] <pitecantropus> :(
[12:19] <crabgrass> HardDisk: might be something with the script then
[12:19] <IndyGunFreak> pitecantropus: ar eyou surethe link is good?
[12:19] <crabgrass> HardDisk: maybe
[12:19] <IndyGunFreak> Its not letting me connect
[12:19] <HardDisk> crabgrass: possible.  I will try again, thanx btw.
[12:20] <eternalswd> anyone know if evince can use the page dragging that adobe acrobat reader can?
[12:20] <crabgrass> HardDisk: np
[12:20] <Flannel> Ubuntoo: With windows, anyone is able to edit anything, it's very insecure, it's why viruses and stuff can easily spread and do damage, because they have the ability to modify any files they want.
[12:20] <|Porsche> ubutoo if you really want to know whats going on read this http://www.freeos.com/articles/3127/
[12:20] <bobsomebody> alrighty yall imma gonna go
[12:20] <pitecantropus> yes, at  http://www.radio3net.ro/artisti.php?cx=list
[12:20] <|Porsche> ALT-F2 man you have no idea!! I have been looking for something like this im glad i found it :P
[12:20] <mwe> pitecantropus: I think some wma files (newer files) don't work with w32codecs
[12:21] <mwe> pitecantropus: usually they work here, though.
[12:21] <|Porsche> is there a program that you can right click on a file and open it as root?
[12:21] <pitecantropus> damn windows :(
[12:21] <duro> folks, how to identify the parent of zombie?
[12:21] <eternalswd> nevermind, figured it out
[12:21] <fred_> hmm
[12:21] <Pici> |Porsche: probably not, the general consensus is to not run gui apps as root unless necessary
[12:21] <fred_> i don't think that apache restart command work
[12:21] <fred_> ed
[12:22] <fred_> :/
[12:22] <Flannel> fred_: what errors did it give you?
[12:22] <fred_> root@ubuntu:/# sudo /etc/inti.d/httpd restart
[12:22] <fred_> sudo: /etc/inti.d/httpd: command not found
[12:22] <IndyGunFreak> |Porsche: why would you want to do that?
[12:22] <Flannel> fred_: no.  not httpd, apache2, like I said
[12:23] <Ubuntoo> another problem: i have a multimedia keyboard and alt F2 doesn't work, where is that program? in Applications?..
[12:23] <|Porsche> because sometimes i want to see a file that only root can see and i dont want to logout of my nonadmin account
[12:23] <Flannel> |Porsche: there are a few nautilus extensions you can do to add things.  There's a `nautilus-gksu` and a `nautilus-open-terminal` and more.
[12:23] <Flannel> |Porsche: if you're on a non-admin account, you can't use sudo.
[12:23] <niter3> how can I start the install of Ubuntu in a different refresh rate????????
[12:24] <IndyGunFreak> niter3: you probably want to consider the alternate install CD.
[12:24] <|Porsche> yeah i can, i sudo into my admin account and then sudo bash and im root
[12:24] <fred_> root@ubuntu:/# sudo /etc/inti.d/apache2 restart
[12:24] <fred_> sudo: /etc/inti.d/apache2: command not found
[12:24] <wastro> does ubuntu come with something that can read a usb card
[12:24] <eternalswd> |Porsche, what program would you be opening the files in?  I'm guessing you mean for editting config files.  what editor do you want to use?
[12:24] <niter3> IndyGunFreak: I'm all out of CD"s to burn on
[12:24] <wastro> probably a stupid question
[12:24] <IndyGunFreak> niter3: well, thats probably the only way your'e gonna get around it
[12:24] <niter3> IndyGunFreak: Could I not copy over xorg.conf to /tmp
[12:24] <pi3> fred_ Flannel told you
[12:24] <IndyGunFreak> niter3: highly unlikely
[12:25] <niter3> IndyGunFreak: Why?
[12:25] <IndyGunFreak> you could try
[12:25] <pi3> fred_ sorry, you may not have apache2 installed
[12:25] <|Porsche> mostly nautilus
[12:25] <Flannel> fred_: init.d not inti.d
[12:25] <IndyGunFreak> niter3: did you get ubuntu installed?
[12:25] <niter3> no i'm stuck with the livecd. It won't display on my monitor
[12:25] <IndyGunFreak> ok, thats why
[12:25] <niter3> so I want to change the refresh rate in xorg
[12:25] <niter3> I'm sure that's what it is
[12:25] <niter3> you can write to /tmp
[12:25] <niter3> it's ram
[12:25] <Flannel> niter3: try ctrl-alt-f1 to get to a terminal
[12:26] <Ubuntoo> what is Alt-F2 ?
[12:26] <niter3> Flannel: i'm there
[12:26] <karim_> hum I trying to mount an iso with fuseiso, I can't read the mount point ...
[12:26] <pi3> Ubuntoo, a shortcut to launch programs
[12:26] <Ubuntoo> i don't have it :P
[12:26] <Flannel> ah.  Right, you know what youre doing.  Just responding to someone's question.  gotcha.  Also, see !install, there are numerous methods of installing that don't require burning a CD (depending on what other options you have)
[12:27] <eternalswd> |Porsche, what editor program do you want to use to view the files?
[12:27] <Flannel> Ubuntoo: are you running Kubuntu? Xubuntu? or Ubuntu?
[12:27] <Ubuntoo> Ubuntu
[12:27] <niter3> Flannel: huh
[12:27] <niter3> Flannel: how?

[12:27] <EADG> karim_: try this command:  mount /path/to/foo.iso /mnt/<directory> -t iso9660 -o ro,loop=/dev/loop0
[12:27] <wastro> which menu options
[12:27] <fred_> ok ran the correct command this time and did not get an "apache start up" msg  just back to command line... when i go to http://localhost in firefox.. nothing
[12:28] <fred_> apache2 is installe :)
[12:28] <Flannel> fred_: what messages did you get?
[12:28] <fred_> didn't get any
[12:28] <karim_> EADG, this works
[12:28] <mwe> Wep encryption is a joke
[12:28] <voici> a good one
[12:28] <IndyGunFreak> mwe: wireless security period is a joke.
[12:28] <mwe> IndyGunFreak: I see
[12:29] <wastro> mwe: yes, but my friends router still uses it. how do I extract it so I don't have to retype it after I reboot
[12:29] <niter3> ubotu: That site says there is an option to install from text
[12:29] <niter3> ubotu: I don't see it in the boot menu
[12:29] <Pici> niter3: ubotu is a bot
[12:29] <__mikem> I can't assign an icon to the Screenlets Launcher applet. And I am not in the mood to fight with a piece of $h!t, so can someone tell me why this piece of $h!t doesn't work
[12:29] <Flannel> fred_: Eh.  That doesn't bode well.  You should've gotten some messages.  Alright, we're going to remove/reinstall apache2: `sudo apt-get remove --purge apache2 apache2.2-common`
[12:29] <IndyGunFreak> niter3: the text install is the alternate install CD.
[12:29] <Flannel> fred_: then reinstall apache2
[12:29] <IndyGunFreak> its text based
[12:29] <mwe> wastro: I'm not sure what you mean. extract from where?
[12:29] <IndyGunFreak> thats what i told you
[12:29] <niter3> opps
[12:30] <IndyGunFreak> !alternate
[12:30] <ubotu> The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[12:30] <nonadmin_> hey i did that ctrl alt f1 command
[12:30] <Ubuntoo> ok Flannel I'm in Add/Remove software ... what next?
[12:30] <nonadmin_> what did just happen?
[12:30] <livingdaylight> I installed Democracy and it just crashes. This is the output: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26809/
[12:30] <wastro> mwe: extract it from the settings
[12:30] <Flannel> Ubuntoo: What?  What are you trying to do?
[12:30] <mwe> wastro: what settings?
[12:30] <wastro> mwe: when I connected to the network, it asked for a key
[12:30] <wastro> so I entered the key
[12:30] <mwe> yes
[12:30] <wastro> but now I can't bring that menu up
[12:30] <Flannel> !enter | wastro
[12:30] <ubotu> wastro: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[12:30] <wastro> to copy the key to a file
[12:30] <__mikem> I can't assign an icon to the Screenlets Launcher applet. And I am not in the mood to fight with a piece of $h!t, so can someone tell me why this piece of $h!t doesn't work
[12:30] <niter3> hrm.. I see you can change resolution from the boot menu
[12:31] <niter3> I wonder if this will help
[12:31] <niter3> ?
[12:31] <livingdaylight> it says segmentation fault... anyone tell me what that means?
[12:31] <fred_> ok apache purged and saw it stop the apache2 webserver... next step?
[12:31] <mwe> wastro: you can add the key to the interfaces file. I think network manager can store it as well
[12:31] <fred_> apache2 purged...
[12:32] <Flannel> fred_: with apache2.2-common, right?  reinstall apache2
[12:32] <fred_> yes 2.2-commomn zapped... installing....
[12:32] <livingdaylight> I installed Democracy and it just crashes. This is the output: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26809/
[12:32] <__mikem> seriously, can someone help me with screenlets?
[12:32] <livingdaylight> it says segmentation fault... anyone tell me what that means?
[12:33] <fred_> ok apache2 installed
[12:33] <wastro> mwe: network manager, is that like admin -> network or admin -> network tools?
[12:33] <niter3> man as soon as X loads i'm done
[12:33] <niter3> damnit
[12:34] <IndyGunFreak> niter3: your'e going to need the alternate install cd, i don't know what else to tell you
[12:34] <Ubuntoo> Flannel, To open a file browser with higher privs, alt-f2 (that's the run dialog), then `gksu nautilus`, and close that window AS SOON AS you're done. where i can found it, my F keys doesn't work. :(
[12:35] <OmegaCenti> Hello everyone :)
[12:35] <rebelfallen> I have a USB flash drive I want ubuntu to access but it wont detect it, how can I get it to
[12:35] <IndyGunFreak> rebelfallen: what file format is it?
[12:35] <Flannel> Ubuntoo: alt-f2 should work.  Well, unless your F keys dont.  In that case, try installing `nautilus-gksu` that might do what you want (albeit in a different manner)
[12:36] <brylie> is there a launchpad related irc channel?
[12:36] <OmegaCenti> Hey IndyGunFreak, hows life and hows your friend's wireless. did it ever get worked out?
[12:36] <jrib> brylie: #launchpad
[12:36] <rebelfallen> it's running a linux distro, DSL
[12:36] <Ubuntoo> k
[12:36] <livingdaylight> Flannel, do you know what Segmentation fault (core dumped) means?
[12:36] <IndyGunFreak> OmegaCenti: not sure, i haven't saw him
[12:36] <OmegaCenti> IndyGunFreak: oh well...
[12:36] <fred_> with apache "purged" and now apache2 installed.. i also saw apache2.2-common install as well  but trying http://localhost still returns nothing
[12:36] <IndyGunFreak> yup, 'm over it...lol
[12:36] <RaverWild> wols_ hello again. first tried ifconfig -a and got lo, eth0 and eth0:avah or something was the last. on /etc/init.d/networking restart at pppoediscovery i get error getting interface flags, no such device. everybody please help - could not connect to my adsl provider, running feisty, last updated 2 weeks ago(not running my pc since then). at installation such as previously on edgy there was no problem. i booted winxp to get here. ideas?
[12:36] <Flannel> livingdaylight: segfaults are when programs attempt to access memory that isn't allowed.
[12:37] <OmegaCenti> I was wondering if using slocate was the best thing to use to find files fromt he command line interface... I know find exists, but I am still kind of nervous usig find lol.
[12:37] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[12:37] <wesolek> hello everyone :) is there a reason why my live cd wouldn't boot up?
[12:37] <rebelfallen> IndyGunFreak, I think its ext3
[12:37] <livingdaylight> Flannel, hrmm... so if i am trying to launch Democracy and it says that, it means i don't have enough memory?
[12:37] <IndyGunFreak> rebelfallen: the usb drive is formatted in ext3?
[12:37] <Flannel> fred_: pastebin the output of `netstat -a`
[12:38] <wesolek> or let me rephrase it... is there a reson why my live cd would not load ubuntu?
[12:38] <Flannel> livingdaylight: no, it means there's a bug in democracy (or something similar) that means it's trying to access bad memory (buffer overrun, whatever)
[12:38] <RaverWild> wols_ apropos package pppoe is not installed
[12:38] <rebelfallen> IndyGunFreak, to be honest I am not sure, I just set up damnsmalllinux on it and it auto formated
[12:38] <fred_> whats the link for past bin again pls
[12:38] <livingdaylight> Flannel, dayam... :/
[12:38] <fugitivo> hello
[12:39] <IndyGunFreak> rebelfallen: this isn't a DSL help room.
[12:39] <alexnick> Ubuntu won't stop crashing! How do I run diagnostics?
[12:39] <livingdaylight> Flannel, i wonder if it is because i am running ubuntustudio?
[12:39] <rebelfallen> IndyGunFreak, no shit? :) I have files on it I want off, I have no interest in DSL on it.
[12:39] <|Porsche> im going to get something to eat anybody wants me to bring them something back?
[12:39] <Ubuntoo> Flannel, same thing, i can't edit folders directly, with copy/delete commands, only with right-click - set permissions ...
[12:39] <OmegaCenti> rebelfallen: just firendly reminder, watch the language
[12:39] <fugitivo> I have an intel onboard video card, G33 chipset and intel driver doesn't work (I upgraded to gutsy and still not working), anyone using this videocard?
[12:40] <|Porsche> did you try command line Ubuntoo?
[12:40] <livingdaylight> Flannel, why would the latest version of Democracy be in the repos if its buggy? It works fine in xp... but i'd like it on my ubuntu desktop
[12:40] <Flannel> livingdaylight: I doubt that.  But I don't know where you'd begin to troubleshoot it.  Check launchpad for bugs
[12:40] <alexnick> How do I run  diagnostics in Ubuntu? It keeps crashing.
[12:40] <|Porsche> !diagnostics
[12:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about diagnostics - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:40] <Ubuntoo> i understand ubuntu defends himself from viruses, but ... no compromise?
[12:40] <livingdaylight> !launchpad
[12:40] <ubotu> launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's Bounty and Bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/
[12:41] <unagi> !card reader
[12:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about card reader - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:41] <fugitivo> anyone using Intel g33 chipset videocard? (model 3100)
[12:41] <Flannel> Ubuntoo: You don't want to set permissions.  That's bad.  Go to accessories > terminal, and then type in `gksu nautilus` (then edit/close/etc).  Since you can't use altf2 for whatever reason
[12:41] <jay1> anyone know any good dvd cataloging software?
[12:41] <fred_> whats the link for past bin again pls
[12:41] <unagi> can anyone point me in the right direction on how to set up a card reader?
[12:41] <OmegaCenti> !paste

[12:41] <IndyGunFreak> jay1: dvd cataloging?
[12:41] <jay1> yes
[12:41] <IndyGunFreak> i guess i don't understand what you mean
[12:41] <jay1> like imediaman.com

[12:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cardreader - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[12:42] <jay1> or delicious library
[12:42] <OmegaCenti> I tried :)
[12:42] <joogu> hello, I want to make new partition for windows. if I use the guided partition resize, will the size I set be the one used for the new partition or the one I am currently using for ubuntu?
[12:42] <livingdaylight> Flannel, really sux though...
[12:42] <wesolek> I can't load the live cd... it boots up, and then hangs after I choose either: start/install ubuntu or safe mode start
[12:42] <rockets> is there a way to see whats creating disc IO
[12:42] <Ubuntoo> ok Flannel thanks, that works somehow.. ;)
[12:42] <Pici> rockets: lsof perhaps
[12:42] <jart> hello everyone <3 is there any way I can reset my key bindings?  I accidentally disabled my media shortcuts and i'm trying to set them back to their original win_key+x combinations but it's not letting me.  does anyone know where the configuration is stored?
[12:43] <IndyGunFreak> jay1: will that program run in Wine?
[12:43] <IndyGunFreak> i don't think i've saw a linux program like that
[12:43] <rockets> Pici, on the right track but not quite
[12:43] <jay1> dunno maybe wanted native program though
[12:43] <Flannel> !mediakeys | jart
[12:43] <ubotu> jart: Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts (Gnome) or "Input Actions" in KControl (KDE). If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try keytouch - http://keytouch.sourceforge.net
[12:43] <unagi> does anyone know how to get a memory card reader to work in ubuntu?
[12:43] <IndyGunFreak> jay1: well, this might be one of those times you don't have a choice...
[12:43] <OmegaCenti> wow, didn't know about lsof... freaky!!
[12:44] <IndyGunFreak> never saw anyhing like that for Linux.
[12:44] <wesolek> hello nickrud :) are you there?
[12:44] <OmegaCenti> I was wondering if using slocate was the best thing to use to find files fromt he command line interface... I know find exists, but I am still kind of nervous usig find lol.
[12:45] <nickrud> wesolek, yeah, it looks like you got your X fixed
[12:45] <RaverWild> people please help - on edgy and feisty install there were no problem but 2 weeks ago last updated feisty, did not used the pc since then, now noticed i cant connect to my adsl  provider (not his problem since i can do it on winxp now). on /etc/init.d/networking restart on pppoediscovery i get it cant get network flags "no such device". ifconfig -a returns lo,eth0 and eth:avah, pppoe not installed, pppoeconf cant detect the connection. ideas please?
[12:45] <wesolek> yeah I did :) nickrud, but now I can't start the installation on my other laptop
[12:45] <jart> it's not 'media keys', i guess a better way to put it is i can't set key bindings for combinations that used the windows key.  they originally showed up as weird hex codes which i erased and i can't get back
[12:46] <OmegaCenti> !ppoe
[12:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ppoe - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:46] <nickrud> wesolek, lol, sorta. Where's it screwing up? (mine have gone well, so..)
[12:46] <fred_> Flannel:  just posted my netstat -a results in pastbin
[12:46] <jart> so now i can't like control my media player with windows key + b and stuff
[12:46] <IndyGunFreak> jay1: doesn't look like it works.
[12:46] <jart> :(
[12:46] <ekso> !widget

[12:46] <EADG> OmegaCenti: Locate works well, just remember to update the db few few days (or before a big search)
[12:46] <fred_> Flannel:
[12:46] <wesolek> nickrud, I can choose from the menu the normal installation or safe mode and then after a while the bar stops moving
[12:46] <fred_> Flannel: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26813/
[12:46] <OmegaCenti> EADG so basically locate -u or slocate -u? do I need to be sudo when I do those?
[12:47] <Unix-Jihad> jay1, gtkatalog?
[12:47] <Ubuntoo> now, I copy from my DVD a movie and after it copied 98% it says: cd copy Error "I/O error" while copying "/media/cdr..."
[12:47] <EADG> OmegaCenti: yep, sudu locate -u
[12:47] <bnall> help please. can't play dvds. have installed and followed everything on the community documents but getting errors "no URI handler implemented"
[12:47] <jart> i've looked all over google and found only questions, no answers.  i also tried grepping through the gnome configurations to find where keyboard settings are stored but to no avail
[12:47] <OmegaCenti> EADG: Thanks :)
[12:47] <bnall> help please. can't play dvds. have installed and followed everything on the community documents but getting errors "no URI handler implemented"

[12:48] <Flannel> fred_: hmm.  ok, and pastebin the results of `ps aux`
[12:48] <IndyGunFreak> Unix-Jihad: where is that program available?
[12:48] <EADG> OmegaCenti: sorry, sudu won't work... should read sudo, my bad.
[12:48] <OmegaCenti> EADG: If I do sudo slocate <some file here> it will ist all files possible because I am root right?
[12:48] <bnall> didn't think anyone saw it caus eit scrolled away fast - sorry
[12:48] <nickrud> jart, you can try system-prefs-keyboard shortcuts; you can also see them in gconf-editor at /apps/gnome_settings_daemon/ . You can figure out what those hex's were with xev
[12:49] <jart> nickrud: thanks!
[12:49] <EADG> OmegaCenti: no need for root on locate.
[12:49] <Jaeneva> OK... anyone here who can help a total newb?  I've just installed ubuntu server, and all I have is a text screen, and I dn't know what to do now
[12:49] <Music_Shuffle> bnall, what program won't let you play the files?
[12:49] <OmegaCenti> EADG: well locate seems to just be a pointer to Secure Locate none the less.
[12:49] <bnall> totem - MPlayer
[12:49] <aaron_> anyone have any tips to  succesfully install a broadcom wireless card?  I've had hell with ndiswrapper in the past
[12:49] <Music_Shuffle> Jaeneva, that's...the server install.  Text-based.  Lol.  What are you trying to do?
[12:49] <fred_> Flannel: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26815/
[12:49] <Jaeneva> play with server stuff, the server install is only text based?
[12:50] <wesolek> should I try and leave it for longer, nickrud?
[12:50] <Jaeneva> I thought both'd be GUIish
[12:50] <nickrud> wesolek, that's the alternate cd? thats the only one I use for installs; I did have problems with brltty-x11, supposedly it can hang. You might google for that.
[12:50] <Music_Shuffle> Jaeneva, server doesnt include a GUI by default.  You can install one if you want.
[12:50] <EADG> OmegaCenti: not too familiar with slocate, so I believe you would need to be root to see all.
[12:50] <Jaeneva> As a newb, I'd probably be better off playing off desktop version
[12:50] <Jaeneva> Yes?
[12:50] <Music_Shuffle> bnall, have you tried totem-xine as opposed to the default totem-gstreamer?
[12:50] <OmegaCenti> EADG: Thanks. I appreciate it :)
[12:50] <Music_Shuffle> Jaeneva, yeah
[12:50] <Flannel> Jaeneva: yes.  And you can install servers on the desktop version too.  Linux doesn't differentiate.
[12:50] <Jaeneva> OK then
[12:51] <Jaeneva> I know you can... Just don't know how
[12:51] <Jaeneva> Does the desktop version default install wine by any chance?
[12:51] <Music_Shuffle> Jaeneva, no
[12:51] <reD_Fox1> hello, my freshly installed ubuntu (on a compaq notebook, AMD64x2, nvidia 6150) halts during boot. Specifically during the disk check. Prior to that, it halted immediately before gnome was loaded. LiveCD has the same issues.
[12:51] <wesolek> I don't think it's an alternate cd... I think I just downloaded it as a live cd, nickrud
[12:51] <Jaeneva> OK, damn
[12:51] <Jaeneva> Alright thanks (-:

[12:54] <michael> does anyone have any suggestions on the best way to go from badger to version 7.04?
[12:54] <nickrud> wesolek, a quick google shows others with that problem; I didn't configure my network and it went right in.
[12:54] <Music_Shuffle> michael, ...backup and install fresh?
[12:54] <Flannel> michael: probably easiest to simply backup and reinstall.
[12:54] <bnall> music_shuffle: i'm installing it now - thanks
[12:55] <Music_Shuffle> bnall, :)
[12:55] <Flannel> michael: otherwise you'll have to go breezy > dapper > edgy > Feisty

[12:56] <fred_> Flannel: root@ubuntu:/home/fred# sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start
[12:56] <fred_> root@ubuntu:/home/fred# sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[12:56] <fred_> root@ubuntu:/home/fred#
[12:56] <fred_> both just go back to command line
[12:56] <j1tters> gfhgfh its a linux distrobution.
[12:56] <wastro> im sure they had a good reason for going forward
[12:56] <Flannel> eh, don't go as root.  But, thats ok.  Get rid of the sudo, and do it again.
[12:56] <voidmage> How can I search through images by aspect ratio, such as to find all 16:10 images?

[12:57] <jay1> anyone know how a typical linux project is done? say a media player for example. is the gui done first then the backend. or other way around???
[12:58] <fred_> Flannel:  same results sans the sudo bit

[12:59] <neuratix> jay1: wxwidgets, qt, gtk++
[01:00] <jay1> gnome specific
[01:00] <RichW> jay1: gtk++ then
[01:00] <jay1> so wxwidgets, gtk, python
[01:00] <neuratix> jay1: qt is used in KDE and gtk++ in gnome. wxwidgets is a toolkit running on top of whatever you use
[01:00] <jay1> so monodevelop
[01:00] <RichW> jay1: wxwidgets or gtk.. pick one not both
[01:00] <scaggot> Hi, I'm getting a lot of errors when I type "make"... I was trying to install drivers for my modem.. am i missing any files? I'm using Ubuntu 7.04
[01:01] <fred_> Flannel sounds as though that command created a file somewhere... location of this new file?
[01:01] <neuratix> jay1: i would recommend wxwidgets as it makes you app easy to port to other platforms
[01:01] <RichW> jay1: You can use mono if you know C#
[01:01] <reD_Fox1> hello, my freshly installed ubuntu (on a compaq notebook, AMD64x2, nvidia 6150) halts during boot. Specifically during the disk check. Prior to that, it halted immediately before gnome was loaded. LiveCD has the same issues. Any ideas for how to troubleshoot the issue?
[01:01] <alexnick> Firefox won't stop crashingg :[
[01:02] <Flannel> fred_: That command didn't create a file.  I didn't give you a command either.  `less /etc/init.d/apache2`
[01:02] <jay1> no porting ;) one thing at a time
[01:02] <scaggot> Hi, I'm getting a lot of errors when I type "make"... I was trying to install drivers for my modem.. am i missing any files? I'm using Ubuntu 7.04
[01:02] <unagi> no one knows how to fix my problem =(
[01:02] <Flannel> scaggot: install the `build-essential` package
[01:02] <unagi> this is a first lol
[01:02] <scaggot> okay
[01:02] <neuratix> scaggot: you might be missing some "-dev"-packages too
[01:02] <supremesonic> !java
[01:02] <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
[01:03] <scaggot> Okay so what all do I need to download?
[01:03] <neuratix> scaggot: also, if there is a configure script you should run that first. it will tell you what you're missing
[01:03] <RichW> jay1: If your new to programming you have a BIG learning curve.
[01:04] <wastro> can anyone recommend a good terminal
[01:04] <fred_> Flannel: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26817/
[01:04] <alexnick> Why is Feisty running so slowly on my laptop?
[01:04] <RichW> alexnick: Make sure it has enough ram?
[01:04] <NP87> !list
[01:04] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[01:05] <scaggot> http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/b/build-essential/build-essential_10.1ubuntu1.tar.gz <--- Is this what I need?
[01:05] <neuratix> alexnick: perhaps you haven't installed the display driver. it's a common mistake.
[01:05] <neuratix> alexnick: and that can make your computer slow as hell
[01:05] <flybyte> How can I run my windows app on utu
[01:05] <neuratix> flybyte: wine
[01:05] <RichW> scaggot: apt-get install build-essential
[01:05] <Techi> hey all, how do I check to see what all froves are mounted, and which are unmounted in 7.04?
[01:05] <neuratix> !wine|flybyte
[01:05] <ubotu> flybyte: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[01:05] <Flannel> scaggot: no.  What you need is on the CD already.  put the CD in, `sudo apt-cdrom add` then sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get install build-essential
[01:06] <scaggot> I don't have internet access on my Ubuntu.. I was trying to install my modem drivers
[01:06] <yoranyo> guys! I just install ubuntu ........ on my desktop. How do I find out if my Nvidia driver is installed ?
[01:06] <flybyte> is there an alternative to Wine?
[01:06] <scaggot> Okay
[01:06] <RichW> flybyte: If its a .NET app you can sometimes use mono
[01:07] <flybyte> mono?
[01:07] <Flannel> fred_: Purge apache again, verify that that file is gone.  Then reinstall.  (sudo apt-get remove --purge apache2 apache2-mpm-worker apache2.2-common)
[01:07] <scaggot> Let me try that
[01:08] <mdious> Flannel:  Hi, me again hehe...is there any difference between apt-get remove --purge and dpkg --purge ?
[01:09] <mzanfardino> I seem to have a task running away with my hard drive but I'm not sure how to idolate what it is.  I've checked top but nothing seems to be sucking an unusual amount of cpu.  Is there a way to see what'a accessing my drive?
[01:09] <Flannel> mdious: one uses dpkg, the other apt-get.  But no, apt-get --purge calls dpkg --purge
[01:09] <yoranyo> guys I have enabled desktop effects, and the top border disappears where the button are for minimize maximize and close. I am using Nvidia video card AMD athlon 64 bit
[01:09] <yoranyo> do I need to change some setting ?
[01:09] <yoranyo> how do I know if the nvidia driver is installed correctly
[01:10] <mzanfardino> s/idolate/isolate
[01:10] <mzanfardino> yoranyo: you'd know
[01:10] <mzanfardino> yoranyo: X won't load
[01:10] <detectiveinspekt> what is the best way to test the network speed of my computer
[01:10] <detectiveinspekt> lan
[01:10] <mdious> Flannel:  thanks, sorry for bothering with my stupid questions
[01:11] <natbet> I have an nvidia card with twinview set up. When I try to play full screen games (cube, gl-117) it's on the right monitor but only half of it shows. any idea what is causing this and how to fix it?
[01:11] <yoranyo> mzanfardino:  I see ....... but why is my desktop effects are broken when I just install quake and its playing fine
[01:11] <mzanfardino> yoranyo: not sure.  You might try downloading ENVY and letting it install the latest driver and configure X.  I've had some success with it.
[01:11] <Plant_Master> hi y'all... just fired up gaim and since i have no online friends i tuned into this #.. (had the most users..hehe...) Can any1 of u kind gemtlemens (or women 4 that part) direct me 2 the proper # or #S if u wanna do some general chatting bout nonsense?
[01:12] <yoranyo> is envy reliable ?
[01:12] <mzanfardino> natbet: I have twinview as well, but as I understand it the OpenGL libraries only write to one physical device (correct me if I'm wrong), so you will only get it on one screen if it's in "full screeN' mose
[01:12] <mzanfardino> yoranyo: I've found it to be very reliable
[01:12] <yoranyo> where do download it ?
[01:13] <fred_> Flannel: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26819/  ...also, the apache & apache2 directories still exist
[01:13] <natbet> mzanfardino: ok, that makes sense, but is there a way to move it over a little? it cuts it in half
[01:13] <alexnick> Where can I get ahold of the display driver? Even right now my mouse is lagging, so is the text :[
[01:13] <unagi> do memory card readers just not work in ubuntu
[01:13] <alexnick> Sorry neuratix, I lost my connection. Where can I get the display driver?
[01:13] <IndyGunFreak> Plant_Master: what do you mean?.
[01:14] <mzanfardino> natbet: sorry, that I can't help with.  I don't use many OpenGL apps, and the one I did was a windows app running under wine in windowed mode... whole different ball of wax.
[01:14] <natbet> mzanfardino: yeah, thanks though
[01:14] <Flannel> fred_: pastebin `ls /etc/apache2`
[01:14] <wesolek> nickrud, I tried again and it basically stops... everything stops (except for the mem test)
[01:14] <IndyGunFreak> !ubuntu-offtopic | Plant_Master
[01:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntu-offtopic - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:14] <alexnick> Okay, I lost my connection again : / what about that display driver?
[01:14] <IndyGunFreak> !offtopic
[01:14] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:15] <wesolek> nickrud, and google returns pretty much everything when I search it
[01:15] <mzanfardino> yoranyo: you can do a seach for ENVY, it's written by an Italian lad.  I've follows his howto on installing ATI and NVIDIA drivers before using ENVY and they were always accurate.  I've since started to use ENVY and haven't had any trouble with it.  It even downloads the latest driver...
[01:15] <yoranyo> mzanfardino: thanks
[01:15] <nickrud> wesolek, how about the disk verification option?
[01:15] <mzanfardino> yoranyo: np. good luck
[01:15] <reed> hello, I am having problems changing my Resolution. I have an ATI Radeon 7000 VE Graphics card and dual monitors.
[01:16] <wesolek> that doesn't work either, nickrud.... but the disk is ok, I checked on a different computer
[01:16] <reed> However when I enter this into the terminal:
[01:16] <fred_> Flannel: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26821/
[01:16] <iTurtle> I'm not getting any sound in wine.
[01:16] <nickrud> wesolek, no clue here then, sorry. I guess I'm 0 for 2 for you. ;)
[01:16] <iTurtle> never mind.. i got it
[01:16] <Caplain> whats the latest version of ubuntu and is it easy to upgrade?
[01:16] <mzanfardino> iTurtle: you might need to run winecfg and check your audio config
[01:16] <reed> reed@reed-desktop:~$ audo aticonfig --initial --input=/etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:16] <reed> bash: audo: command not found

[01:17] <rockets> dHey my laptop's sound was working fine and all of the sudden nothing. No sound at all works.
[01:17] <Flannel> fred_: Did you install apache2/apache first through some other method? (compile from source? or anything?)
[01:17] <rockets> its been working for weeks
[01:18] <Ubuntoo> how do i set up the slots in Linuxdcpp ? anyone knows?
[01:18] <fred_> Flannel: i used sudo apt-get install method
[01:18] <mzanfardino> ok, so no utilties that can analyze drive access and help determine what task might be chewing through my HD?
[01:18] <Flannel> fred_: and that's the only thing you've ever used?
[01:19] <detectiveinspekt> for a printer server using cups I can't print from windows pc's because gimp print isn't a supported driver
[01:19] <Pici> mzanfardino: top might be able to show things sorted by reads/writes, but you'd have to check the manpage
[01:19] <mzanfardino> might a wmv file require more drive access than an mp3?
[01:19] <fred_> Flannel: also tried installing xammp /opt/lampp
[01:19] <mzanfardino> Pici: yeah, looking there.. top is helpful but I'm not seeing what I'm looking for... I'll keep reading
[01:19] <fred_> perhaps conflicting
[01:19] <fred_> ?
[01:20] <Flannel> fred_: Yeah.  Or, something.  did you do any configuring (major) of apache2 after installing it?
[01:20] <DanaG> I'm trying to set up Feisty on a system with an Asus board, with ICH5 southbridge.
[01:20] <livingdaylight> Flannel, what is the dpkg - to find <application> command?
[01:20] <fred_> Flannel: non
[01:20] <fred_> e
[01:20] <wesolek> oh not at all nickrud, you've been very helpful
[01:21] <DanaG> The system can't find the PATA hard drive.
[01:21] <Flannel> livingdaylight: what?  What do you mean find <application> command?
[01:21] <mzanfardino> livingdaylight: I use dpkg -l | grep <packagename>
[01:21] <DanaG> Port fails to respond.
[01:21] <livingdaylight> Flannel, yes
[01:21] <OmegaCenti> How do you tell what modules are loaded?
[01:21] <Pici> OmegaCenti: lsmod
[01:21] <wesolek> I think the problem with my ati was me - the user, as I was setting the wrong memory for my graphics... nickrud
[01:21] <livingdaylight> mzanfardino, thx
[01:21] <Flannel> livingdaylight: what are you asking for?  I dont understand.
[01:21] <OmegaCenti> Pici: thanks :)
[01:21] <mzanfardino> OmegaCenti: dpkg -l will
[01:21] <nickrud> wesolek, yeah, I saw that :)
[01:21] <livingdaylight> Flannel, actually, looking for what command will launch it
[01:21] <wesolek> lol
[01:22] <Flannel> livingdaylight: ah, You'll just have to list the contents of a package, and find the ones in /usr/bin
[01:22] <wesolek> I am surprised you didn't laugh at me lol, nickrud
[01:22] <nickrud> left my machine on when I went home, just to catch the last of that fix
[01:22] <reed> I ask for a little help and people gripe at me? :/ wtf
[01:22] <bnall> music-shuffler - i installed totem-xine but the movie still doesn't play. i tried opening mplayer and it opens but then goes away - ideas? does totem -xine open with mplayer?
[01:22] <Flannel> reed: people gripe for you pasting to this channel.  Not for asking for help.
[01:22] <nickrud> wesolek, every single one of us here has had a brain fart like that, and most laugh at themselves enough
[01:23] <DanaG> How do you tell the LiveCD to use ata_generic instead of ata_piix?
[01:23] <wesolek> lol I do too, nickrud
[01:23] <OmegaCenti> Whats the best place to get info (like manuals) for the modules loaded? like if I want to know what a certain module does
[01:23] <nickrud> wesolek, anyway, back to work
[01:23] <mdious> DanaG:  on boot you can press (F3 I think) something to list more options...
[01:23] <Flannel> fred_: did you upgrade from edgy with this install?
[01:24] <fred_> Flannel: this is a fresh install
[01:24] <wesolek> hehehe sorry, I had to bring my ferrets to order, nickrud
[01:24] <wesolek> nickrud are you still at work?
[01:24] <DanaG> But what option would I use?
[01:24] <wesolek> I'll keep asking here about my problem...
[01:25] <Cooner750> Where do I install custom fonts to?
[01:25] <bnall> music_shuffle are you around?
[01:25] <Flannel> fred_: odd odd odd.  ports.conf should have been removed.  But I can't even find where it says it's from.  What does `dpkg -S /etc/apache2/ports.conf` return?  Anything?  (and what's in that file?)
[01:25] <gRaCiOsO> how could i resolv this problem when i run vmware exec: 180: /lib/wrapper-gtk24.sh: not found ?
[01:26] <wesolek> ubuntu will not load the live cd in normal or save mode
[01:26] <Plant_Master> is ther some1 there who could give a few pointers bout IRC and GAIM?
[01:27] <DanaG> How do you force the livecd to use ata_generic?
[01:27] <scary> Hey,  would anyone mind helping me out with my intel hda sound card issues
[01:27] <rockets> !ask | Plant_Master
[01:27] <ubotu> Plant_Master: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)

[01:27] <bnall> any good dvd player software for xine?
[01:27] <iTurtle> where can i find good software for linux?

[01:27] <ubotu> bnall: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[01:27] <Pici> bnall: xine is a dvd player...
[01:27] <unagi> anyone having problems with ubuntu freezing up at random times?
[01:27] <iTurtle> unagi: me, at times

[01:27] <iTurtle> unagi: ya
[01:27] <bnall> how do i open it?
[01:28] <unagi> any idea whats causing that?
[01:28] <iTurtle> unagi: but then again, my computer is 8 years old :)
[01:28] <unagi> mines brand new
[01:28] <scary> is it only with 7.04?
[01:28] <iTurtle> bnall: sudo apt-get install gxine?
[01:28] <rockets> lol so whats your question Plant_Master
[01:28] <iTurtle> unagi: whats your graphics card?
[01:28] <unagi> =(
[01:28] <iTurtle> unagi: sudo lspci
[01:28] <unagi> nvidia go 7400
[01:28] <iTurtle> wow
[01:28] <iTurtle> unagi: i have no idea, then
[01:28] <scary> does any one know how to get an intel audio card detected?
[01:28] <unagi> anyone else have an idea?
[01:28] <Plant_Master> well i need 2 know xactly how 2 join a good chat #...kinda basic, i know, but i havent been using IRC 4 like 8 yrs and im out of the lopp if u know wim
[01:29] <nj786> is there a way to run a setup.exe program into linux
[01:29] <rockets> Plant_Master, what do you mean join a good chat
[01:29] <iTurtle> !wine | nj786
[01:29] <ubotu> nj786: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[01:29] <OmegaCenti> Whats the best place to get info (like manuals) for the modules loaded? like if I want to know what a certain module does
[01:29] <rockets> Plant_Master, dont use gaim for IRC first of all

[01:29] <ubotu> Unless you're Dutch or Flemish, the letter 'U' is not a pronoun.  If you want to be taken more seriously, please bother to type out the extra letters in "you".  The same goes for "why", "because", "anyone", and so on..
[01:29] <OmegaCenti> !modules
[01:29] <rockets> Plant_Master, use x-chat
[01:29] <ubotu> To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u 
[01:29] <fred_> Flannel: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26822/
[01:29] <nj786> how do i get wine?
[01:29] <unagi> linux makes me sad
[01:29] <unagi> i want to believe in it but......geez
[01:30] <IndyGunFreak> nj786: http://www.winehq.com
[01:30] <iTurtle> nj786, synaptic package manager
[01:30] <IndyGunFreak> follow the instructions
[01:30] <rockets> nj786, sudo apt-get install wine
[01:30] <OmegaCenti> nj786: First go to winehq.org and lookat repositories howto or something of that effect
[01:30] <DanaG> argh-ness.
[01:30] <rockets> nj786, in fact you can apt-get install almost anything
[01:30] <IndyGunFreak> or any of the above... :)
[01:30] <OmegaCenti> rockets: Not if he wants the latest one supported by #winehq
[01:30] <bnall> iturtle i already have it installed but there isn't a frontend for it - how do i open it?
[01:30] <rockets> OmegaCenti, I know that.
[01:30] <IndyGunFreak> I would go to http://www.winehq.com, and follow the instructions there.
[01:30] <OmegaCenti> rockets: He doesn't.
[01:30] <rockets> OmegaCenti, I just prefer to use as many distro packages as i can
[01:31] <Flannel> fred_: What's in that file? (less /etc/apache2/ports.conf)?  Should be only one line, if anything.
[01:31] <OmegaCenti> nj786: Hold on I will walk you through that in #omegacenti if you would like
[01:31] <IndyGunFreak> rockets: but adding the wine repository is easy, and clearly explained and should keep everything up to date.
[01:31] <kahfei> Hi all...I am new to Ubuntu, though I hav experience with Linux in Fedora before...
[01:32] <ahorner> hey.
[01:32] <reD_Fox1> hello, my freshly installed ubuntu (on a compaq notebook, AMD64x2, nvidia 6150) halts during boot. Specifically during the disk check. Prior to that, it halted immediately before gnome was loaded. LiveCD has the same issues. Any ideas for how to troubleshoot the issue?

[01:32] <scary> if alsaconf doesn't detect my sound but is should support my card, how would I go about getting my sound card detected.  I have already installed the newest alsa drivers, util, lib, and oss.  But when I run alsa-conf it doesn't detect my builtin intel sound card.  The card is working in windows currently, so it should work.
[01:32] <fred_> Flannel: looks like only one line Listen 80
[01:32] <wesolek> ubuntu will not load the live cd in normal or safe mode
[01:32] <kahfei> I have downloaded Ubuntu 7.04, and burn the iso to CD...but I stuck at the login screen..
[01:32] <Plant_Master> as it sounds . im F****ng out... all i get from the gaim program is a lot of # listed on the ubuntu server, all good, but right now i dont wanna talk *ix os systems or s**t like that, i wanna talk 2 2 some ordinary pppl and I sincerely dont know how to find those # and join them.... (/me ashamed......)
[01:33] <Flannel> kahfei: stuck being what?  When you choose it goes black? or what?
[01:33] <kahfei> it ask for Username and password
[01:33] <kahfei> !!!
[01:33] <Flannel> fred_: very odd.  ok, uh, go ahead and remvoe that dir (/etc/apache2 and all contents)
[01:33] <ahorner> once you go back you cant go black
[01:33] <ahorner> oop
[01:33] <ahorner> other wa around
[01:33] <Flannel> kahfei: Oh, login.  Is this official ubuntu? or one of the cheesy knockoffs?
[01:33] <ahorner> i didnt know there were knockoffs
[01:33] <kahfei> I didn't even get to set the user and password...but it ask for one?
[01:33] <wesolek> kahfei, make sure that your cd doesn't have any defects...
[01:34] <Flannel> ahorner: "Ubuntu ultimate edition" and other silly things like that.
[01:34] <ahorner> o
[01:34] <kahfei> no..I downloaded the iso from http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[01:34] <bruenig> or my favorite, ubuntu christmas edition
[01:34] <ahorner> how do i use .run files
[01:34] <ahorner> lolo
[01:34] <Flannel> kahfei: right.  Sounds like a bad burn, check the CD for defects (at the boot menu)
[01:34] <Pici> ahorner: chmod +x filename.run  then ./filename.run
[01:34] <IndyGunFreak> Plant_Master: i told you, if you just want to chat, join #ubuntu-offtopic

The woman that made it "HAS" to use ftp, and won't just give me the files so I can upload them myself.  What's the best way (permissions wise) to let her upload to /var/www without giving her permissions for everything, and while still keeping /var/www somewhat restricted?
[01:40] <boi1555> .. how do you make words bold for someone on the chat?
[01:40] <Plant_Master> well, i have ust installed ubuntu and im trying gaim out as an irc client, since i cant use any of the other protocols

[01:42] <kahfei> Update....after checking the CD..errors found in 5 files!!!
[01:42] <fred_> those directories have been deleted
[01:42] <kahfei> Think this must be the root cause for my problem..
[01:42] <ahorner> kahfei: reburn
[01:42] <wesolek> kahfei... get yourself a better cd and burn it again
[01:42] <ahorner> lol
[01:42] <bruenig> kahfei, new iso, new burn, try again

[01:43] <Eclipse75> ahorner, i got a gbic with my 48 port switch with that connection type
[01:43] <OmegaCenti> Whats the best place to get info (like manuals) for the modules loaded? like if I want to know what a certain module does
[01:43] <ahorner> wats a gbic
[01:43] <wesolek> change the make of cd as well kahfei
[01:43] <craigbass1976> nickrud, so what would I do for her, put her in the root group? or put her in www-data and chgroup the folder?
[01:43] <boi1555> oh yeah that reminds me.. does anyone know how to use an airport express base station with ubuntu?
[01:43] <ahorner> lol
[01:43] <Eclipse75> its for connecting at 1000mbps on a switch
[01:43] <ahorner> linux hates macs
[01:43] <nickrud> wastro, run gconf-editor, and under apps/metacity there's two pages: keybinding_commands and global_keybindings. you set the key in global_, and the command in _commands
[01:43] <ahorner> so i dont know
[01:43] <terlmann> kahfei : burn it at the slowest speed
[01:43] <boi1555> craigbass1976: thankkkks!!!!
[01:43] <wastro> nickrud: thanks
[01:43] <scaggot> Hi, how can i query my 56k modem in Ubuntu?
[01:43] <ahorner> hook it up and go to 192.168.1.1 or somethin
[01:43] <z3r0x1> hi guys
[01:44] <z3r0x1> how can I check a runqueue
[01:44] <Eclipse75> i have no cables with that connection. i cant really hook it up
[01:44] <chadeldridge> When i boot Ubuntu my main panel is showing in the center of my screen, but after I go to properties, click expand, and then uncheck expand it goes back to the bottom where is should be.  Any ideas ?
[01:44] <mdious> scaggot:  do you mean query as in...on windows how you can 'query modem'?
[01:44] <wesolek> help :) v
[01:44] <wesolek> ubuntu will not load the live cd in normal or safe mode (no errors on the cd - checked)
[01:44] <Arrick> hey all
[01:44] <ahorner> is there like a powerstrip for ubuntu/linux
[01:45] <Arrick> how do I mount an NTFS external drive so that i can copy the files from it?
[01:45] <|Porsche> what do you mean by powerstrip?
[01:45] <ahorner> ya know the program powerstrip
[01:45] <scaggot> mdious: yes, i just need to make sure that the driver i just installed is the correct one. I've been trying to get my 56K modem to work in Ubuntu.
[01:45] <ahorner> look it up on yahoo
[01:45] <Arrick> I already have the entries in /etc/fstab but it wonr let me copy
[01:45] <detectiveinspekt> Samba only reaches 2MB/s where as HTTP (through torrentflux server) gets 10MB/s is this normal for samba? I am transfering hundreds of 700MB files
[01:45] <ahorner> lets u set custom resolutions, overclock, ect
[01:45] <nickrud> craigbass1976, I am absolutely not a professional admin, but what I'd do is put her in a group, and give that group write permission to her folders. Apache needs /var/www  to be www-data if apache might ever want to write to those folders/files
[01:45] <boi1555> andreas_: did you get my private? about beryl
[01:46] <ahorner> all: i like cheese
[01:46] <chadeldridge> When i boot Ubuntu my main panel is showing in the center of my screen, but after I go to properties, click expand, and then uncheck expand it goes back to the bottom where is should be.  Any ideas ?
[01:46] <ahorner> your mother
[01:47] <ahorner> hey chadeldridge
[01:47] <ahorner> i live by u
[01:47] <ahorner> ur in columbus
[01:47] <ahorner> o.O
[01:47] <mdious> scaggot:  not sure sorry, perhaps search google for the modem...ah took me forever to get my isdn working...finally realised there was just a few options in my kernel i needed to enable then all worked fine...was a great day! :D

[01:47] <fred_> FLannel:  if i install just apache that work, but im having problems getting mysql, and phpmyadmin going
[01:47] <craigbass1976> nickrud, I wish she'd just use putty or pscp.....  >:(
[01:48] <fettsvette> Totally unrelated question! Can anyone give me car advice!
[01:48] <nickrud> wastro, for example I have <Super>t  in global_ on run_command_1 and gnome-terminal in command_1 in _commands. And you're not limited to 12 commands, you can add more keys, just name the keys appropriately.
[01:48] <ahorner> lol
[01:48] <gnomefreak> fettsvette: join #ubuntu-offtopiv
[01:48] <gnomefreak> #ubuntu-offtopic even fettsvette
[01:48] <ahorner> muwhahah i know all ur ips..
[01:48] <fettsvette> ok ty
[01:48] <nickrud> craigbass1976, yes, I know little about ftp, just some experimentation a couple years. ago. Then I discovered (or had thrust under my nose, actually) ssh
[01:48] <chadeldridge> so other than the scary fact that someone thinks they know where i live ... anyone know how to fix my issue ?

[01:51] <scaggot> Is KPPP there on the Ubuntu CD?
[01:51] <shwouchk> I have a problem lately getting updates from several repositories such as ftp://ftp.berlios.de unstable/non-free. What could cause that?
[01:51] <sabayonuser> does ubuntu come with non free software such as nvidia drivers?
[01:52] <louist> hey guys
[01:52] <gnomefreak> shwouchk: they are not ubuntu repos so you would need to talk to the people that run them
[01:52] <gnomefreak> sabayonuser: they are installable
[01:52] <shwouchk> gnomefreak:
[01:52] <shwouchk> kk
[01:52] <louist> question:  which is the best media player for iPod support?
[01:52] <sabayonuser> gnomefreak, where can i get them from?
[01:52] <shwouchk> louist: amarok
[01:52] <scaggot> Is KPPP there on the Ubuntu CD?
[01:52] <sabayonuser> another example could be flash player
[01:52] <shwouchk> afaik
[01:52] <kitsune> hey. I've never made a script before and I was curious as to how to make a script that opens the selected file with the command mplayer -vo xv. Google isn't being friendly to me today
[01:52] <louist> Even in Gnome?
[01:52] <gnomefreak> sabayonuser: muliverse repos
[01:52] <shwouchk> sabayonuser: hello there :P
[01:52] <DanaG> argh.
[01:53] <gnomefreak> !repos | sabayonuser
[01:53] <scaggot> Is KPPP there on the Ubuntu CD?
[01:53] <ubotu> sabayonuser: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[01:53] <DanaG> ata1: port is slow to respond
[01:53] <wastro> nickrud: the gconf doesn't seem to be workign completely
[01:53] <louist> shwochk, does amaroK support album artwork?
[01:53] <sabayonuser> shwouchk hi
[01:53] <nickrud> scaggot, not on the ubuntu cd, maybe the kubuntu cd
[01:53] <shwouchk> louist: yes
[01:53] <gnomefreak> scaggot: it should be but for a yes you would need the kubuntu cd
[01:53] <scaggot> :(
[01:53] <nickrud> wastro, try the example I mentioned above
[01:53] <louist> okay. and it works in gnome, I assume?
[01:54] <shwouchk> louist: I personally think its the best music player/manager for linux, and I know many would agree
[01:54] <scaggot> Or is there anything else on the Ubuntu CD that I can use for connecting with a dialup modem?
[01:54] <shwouchk> I'm pretty sure it does, try.
[01:54] <gnomefreak> nickrud: i think it is on the cd (atleast the alternate) just not installed with ubuntu
[01:54] <Flannel> !lamp | fred_
[01:54] <ubotu> fred_: 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+)
[01:54] <louist> shwouchk, from what I've seen it looks pretty nice.  I'm using banshee right now and I'm not a huge fan of the layout.  I can install AmaroK from the kubuntu CD right?
[01:54] <Arrick> hey all, i am trying to copy files from my external drive, to my internal HDD on ubuntu 7.04 server
[01:54] <scaggot> try, how? I don't know the commands to type
[01:54] <nickrud> gnomefreak, ah, so there's some kde stuff on the ubuntu disk?
[01:54] <Arrick> I am getting an error when trying to do so
[01:54] <Arrick> General failure (server should provide error description).
[01:54] <Arrick> Error code: 4
[01:54] <Arrick> Error message from server: Failure

[01:58] <sirjoebob> hey everyone- i have two quick questions... 1> anyone know of a decent video editor for feisty? 2> anyone know of a good program to use with a tv tuner on feisty?
[01:58] <gnomefreak> shwouchk: to update the repos sudo apt-get update. what do you mean by update?

[01:58] <pd001> Hi guys! Can somebody tell me how to change OpenGL renderer, please?

[01:59] <scorp123> sirjoebob: kino
[02:00] <shwouchk> gnomefreak: ok then where do I get an updated list? again, apt-get update updates the list of packages, not of the list of repositories

[02:00] <gnomefreak> shwouchk: what version of ubuntu are you on?
[02:00] <scaggot> Pelo: I tried that and its giving me an error.. Thats why I wanted to try using something else to connect.. Or maybe try to query the modem somehow to make sure the driver installed is the right one...
[02:00] <wastro> thanks for the help
[02:00] <scorp123> sirjoebob: one I haven't tried out yet: pitivi
[02:00] <nickrud> wastro, exactly what did you use then?

[02:01] <gnomefreak> unless your using 5.10 than your repos are good
[02:01] <scorp123> sirjoebob: don't waste your time on cinelerra (or cinerella?) ... I never get the spelling right.
[02:01] <scorp123> sirjoebob: cinelerra just plain sucks ... the features are awesome, yes ... but the GUI !! it's horror.
[02:01] <sirjoebob> scorp123: i saw that one online and i could not get it working for some reason...

[02:02] <Psykus> are there any other decent gui irc clients available for ubuntu? xchat is ok, but I hate the theming options, so hard to change anything
[02:02] <Shadou> it didnt work...
[02:02] <shwouchk> gnomefreak: for instance the non-free rep I had stopped working... new repositories are created by people... maybe some repositories have updated adresses. I want an updated list of available repositories. NOT PACKAGES.
[02:02] <gnomefreak> shwouchk: define updated repos list please. if you mean unofficial repos you need to find them else where/ if you mean ubuntu repos than the ones in your list if all are uncommented you have latest
[02:02] <Shadou> my login screen died after i changed some of the login screen settings using the GUI
[02:02] <gnomefreak> shwouchk: they most likely use the same ones
[02:02] <Shadou> how do i fix it :(
[02:02] <unrealsword> any ideas anyone?
[02:02] <scorp123> Psykus: I use "konversation" .... simple and easy to use. I know: it's KDE ... but it works under GNOME just as well.
[02:02] <unrealsword> i cant delete the freaking ndiswrapper in the kernel
[02:02] <scaggot> Pelo: Under hardware info, it doesn't say what port the modem is on..
[02:02] <rbs-tito> I use xchat-gnome
[02:02] <unrealsword> and i cant install my wireless drivers because of it
[02:03] <gnomefreak> shwouchk: you want the newer version of unofficial repos see the opwners of the repos
[02:03] <Psykus> also anyway to change/disable the tooltips? even after changing themes around, they still show up as an ugly yellow color
[02:03] <Psykus> scorp123, thanks
[02:03] <scaggot> And when I try to connect, it says not found /dev/modem or something like that...
[02:03] <sirjoebob> scorp123: thanks for the help. gotta run.
[02:03] <Pelo> scaggot, that was the best I could do for you,  check in the forum or ask again here periodicaly,
[02:03] <gnomefreak> shwouchk: we do not support unofficial repos
[02:03] <shwouchk> gnomefreak: there is no page for unofficial repositories?
[02:03] <scaggot> :(
[02:03] <rbs-tito> I bought a SATA DVDRW drive today, I've never seen a SATA optical drive, it won't have any ubuntu problems will it?
[02:03] <shwouchk> gnomefreak: geez
[02:03] <Shadou> my login screen died after i changed some of the login screen settings using the GUI
[02:03] <Shadou> how do i fix it :(
[02:04] <bronze> Does anyone know if I can get the serial key from XP without booting into it (it's not bootable).
[02:04] <Pelo> scaggot,  you need to change /dev/modem for  /dev/ttyS?  what ever the number is for that ttyS port
[02:04] <shwouchk> people were right to tell me to stay away from ubuntu :(
[02:04] <scaggot> where do I change that?
[02:04] <Pelo> Shadou,  reinstall ubuntu
[02:04] <Shadou> i cant
[02:04] <Shadou> im on vacation and i dont have my disc
[02:04] <gnomefreak> shwouchk: not one that is kept up anymore
[02:04] <Pelo> scaggot, menu > system > admin > network,  you can probably specify the modem there
[02:04] <unrealsword> no one has nay ideas how to delete a folder in the kernel
[02:04] <scorp123> bronze: why not ask Microsoft?
[02:04] <Shadou> and i have files i need off of it
[02:04] <scaggot> I changed it to ttyS0, ttyS1, etc etc and it always says /dev/modem isn't found
[02:04] <Moniker42> does anyone know of a preview program for latex?
[02:04] <Pelo> Shadou, try the forum
[02:05] <Moniker42> i.e. previewing the output as you type
[02:05] <wehttamb> beryl wont load the borders on windows, i have tried reloading it and reloading emerald but it still wont work
[02:05] <Pelo> Moniker42, search for latex in synaptic
[02:05] <wehttamb> i just restarted my computer and now it wont work
[02:05] <Flannel> Moniker42: Preview program?  just compile and view?
[02:05] <Moniker42> Pelo, there are, literally, hundreds of results for that
[02:05] <Pelo> wehttamb,  ask in #beryl
[02:05] <wehttamb> ok
[02:05] <Moniker42> Flannel, i've been doing that...
[02:05] <gnomefreak> wehttamb: join #ubuntu-effects for beryl help
[02:05] <Moniker42> but it's getting a little tiring doing it every 30 seconds
[02:05] <Pelo> Moniker42,  narrow it down,   latex preview
[02:06] <wastro> whats a good super simply audio player for linux
[02:06] <wastro> a la foobar
[02:06] <wastro> or the old winamp
[02:06] <Flannel> Moniker42: that's the normal method.  get vim-latexsuite or something, you can \ll to compile.  What do you want in a 'preview' sort of thing?
[02:06] <Pelo> wastro, beep
[02:06] <louist> gnomefreak, it's not working.  I can't get it to install from the CD
[02:06] <scorp123> wastro: xmms
[02:06] <wastro> thanks :)
[02:06] <scorp123> wastro: xmms can even use *OLD* WinAMP skins ...
[02:06] <unrealsword> for the love of god how do u delete a folder in the kernel
[02:06] <louist> at least not by messing with my sources.list
[02:06] <gnomefreak> louist: you need the kubuntu alternate cd
[02:06] <Flannel> unrealsword: kernel?
[02:06] <wastro> lol I actually looked up beep
[02:06] <unrealsword> yes
[02:06] <Shadou> does anyone else know how to maybe fix my login screen?
[02:06] <Moniker42> Flannel, what it will look like in a pdf/dvi/output as i type, or at the touch of one button
[02:06] <unrealsword> im trying to get rid of the ndiswrapper
[02:06] <wastro> ok let me try xmms
[02:06] <wastro> im just worried amarok might be bloated
[02:06] <unrealsword> because make uninstall doesnt get rid of it in ubuntu
[02:07] <unrealsword> and its not letting me delete the folder
[02:07] <koyo001> hello
[02:07] <scorp123> unrealsword: what you say doesn't make sense ... "delete folder *IN* the kernel" ....
[02:07] <unrealsword> lol
[02:07] <unrealsword> well
[02:07] <koyo001> i got movie files that are incripted
[02:07] <unrealsword> the folder kenrel
[02:07] <Flannel> Moniker42: check out Lyx, it's a Latex GUI sort of thing.  Might be what you're looking for.
[02:07] <unrealsword> kernel/ubuntu/misc/ndiswrapper
[02:07] <koyo001> does anyone know of something to decript movies
[02:07] <louist> gnomefreak, i can't do it with the install cd?
[02:07] <Flannel> unrealsword: you want to remvoe a folder in the terminal, right?  not kernel?
[02:07] <ukubuntu> quick question:  I installed giving the username I wanted for general use. Is this the root login, or is there another login as the root user?
[02:07] <Flannel> !sudo | ukubuntu
[02:07] <ubotu> ukubuntu: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[02:07] <Dazza_> anyone know an article where i can get my alsa sound mixing to work?
[02:07] <gnomefreak> louist: not the one you have
[02:07] <scorp123> !root
[02:07] <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
[02:08] <unrealsword> Flannel: can i remove the file through the terminal in the kernel/ubuntu/misc/ndiswrapper
[02:08] <unrealsword> lol
[02:08] <scorp123> unrealsword: sudo apt-get remove ndiswrapper
[02:08] <SomeUniqueUserna> imagine no root.... sudo su
[02:08] <ukubuntu> Thanks Flannel
[02:08] <Flannel> ukubuntu: it's the admin user, not the root user.  But a user that has the ability to obtain higher privs temporarily
[02:08] <louist> damn...
[02:08] <HeloDown> whenever I attempt to change the permissions on my /etc/privoxy/config file I get a "You are not the owner, so you can't change these permissions," However it does not give me an option to sign in as the root
[02:08] <scorp123> HeloDown: use "sudo"
[02:08] <louist> is there a channel for audio player discussion?
[02:09] <scorp123> !sudo | HeloDown
[02:09] <ubotu> HeloDown: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[02:09] <unrealsword> scorp123: that doesnt work sadly
[02:09] <HeloDown> I'm not using the terminal though
[02:09] <unrealsword> if i do locate ndiswrapper in the terminal
[02:09] <scorp123> HeloDown: your fault
[02:09] <SomeUniqueUserna> try sudo su
[02:09] <unrealsword> it still finds the files in the kernel area
[02:09] <unrealsword> it doesnt get rid of them
[02:09] <SomeUniqueUserna> are you in the wheel group
[02:09] <Dazza_> anyone know an article where i can get my alsa sound mixing to work?
[02:09] <unrealsword> im not sure what you mean
[02:09] <Moniker42> Flannel, i found Lyx but i couldn't find a deb for it :P
[02:09] <ukubuntu> Thanks Flannel, I will try to get my head around it all :$
[02:09] <Flannel> SomeUniqueUserna: please stop recommending that.  That's not a correct thing to do, nor is it the correct method of doing what you're trying to.  Also, no wheel group in Ubuntu.
[02:10] <SomeUniqueUserna> *admin grou
[02:10] <SomeUniqueUserna> ya my bad
[02:10] <Flannel> Moniker42: It's in universe.
[02:10] <Moniker42> it is? :)
[02:11] <Shadou> I changed my login screen settings in the GUI and now when i start my computer the login screen doesnt appear just a mouse pointer
[02:11] <Shadou> how do i fix it?
[02:11] <Psykus> is there a channel for compiz?
[02:11] <scorp123> HeloDown: GUI's are a lie, they're just front-ends to the shell. Through the shell, I gain sudo.  Through sudo, I gain power.  Through power, I gain root. Through root, my chains are broken. uid=0 shall free me.
[02:12] <unrealsword> "cannot move ndiswrapper in kernel/ubuntu/misc/ndiswrapper", you do not have permission to change it
[02:12] <Moniker42> Flannel, thanks! :D
[02:12] <Moniker42> this is perfect
[02:12] <HeloDown> ehh this is actually my first time using a Linux based OS and the information I read doesn't help a lot
[02:12] <HeloDown> sudo /usr/etc/privoxy
[02:12] <HeloDown> would that give the folder?
[02:12] <scorp123> HeloDown: ... OK, this was supposed to be a joke. It's a parody of the "Sith Prayer" from Star Wars .... :-)   never mind ... :-)
[02:13] <Anthology_> lol scorp123
[02:13] <unix_> S
[02:13] <scorp123> HeloDown: sudo command .....
[02:13] <HeloDown> no, I caught it just overlooking it.
[02:13] <ilya> 
[02:13] <unrealsword> how do u delete a folder in the kernel through the terminal>?
[02:13] <unrealsword> i cant do it manually it seems
[02:14] <Talaman72> hey, where do i get a definitive hardware compatibility list?
[02:14] <bronze> scorp123, ask microsoft? I think that costs like 200$ or something :(
[02:14] <rbs-tito> Talaman72: There is one on the Ubuntu wiki
[02:14] <scorp123> bronze: welcome to the club brother :)
[02:14] <scorp123> !microsoft | bronze
[02:14] <ubotu> bronze: For help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and !equivalents
[02:14] <Flannel> HeloDown: Same as any other folder in a terminal.
[02:14] <Shadou> I changed my login screen settings in the GUI and now when i start my computer the login screen doesnt appear just a mouse pointer
[02:14] <Shadou> how do i fix it?
[02:14] <natbet> exit
[02:15] <natbet> exit
[02:15] <Talaman72> rbs-tito, do you have a link, because i can't find it anywhere
[02:15] <danh> Hi i DONT want ubuntu to delete everything out of /tmp when i reboot
[02:15] <danh> how do i do that?
[02:15] <scorp123> danh: don't keep stuff in /tmp
[02:15] <scorp123> :)
[02:15] <danh> you make funny
[02:15] <scorp123> danh: I'm serious.
[02:16] <rbs-tito> Talaman72: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[02:16] <scorp123> danh: on some UNIX-like OS /tmp isn't even on the harddisk, but instead a part of the RAM that can go away any time the system sees fit. Keeping stuff in there is stupid, sorry to say so.
[02:16] <danh> i bet its a filesystem on 99 percent of ubuntu installs
[02:17] <minerale> Hi, how can I have ubuntu automatically login ?
[02:17] <scorp123> danh: yes, and 99% of people don't keep stuff in there they want to keep :)
[02:17] <taime1> minerale: not really a good habit
[02:18] <Moniker42> i have a weird gedit bug
[02:18] <taime1> squash it
[02:18] <Moniker42> it won't let me resize vertically, only horizontally
[02:18] <Moniker42> taime1, it's too big, and i've ran out of bug spray
[02:18] <danh> i guess ubuntu doesn't have aynthing like rc.conf from FreeBSD
[02:18] <taime1> hehe
[02:18] <ahorner> how do i mount a disk that doesnt show up in nautalis
[02:18] <ahorner> 'mount 'disk''?
[02:19] <Moniker42> ahorner, first, clear your schedule for the rest of the afternoon
[02:19] <Moniker42> next, be prepared and patient
[02:19] <taime1> mount /dev/cdrom
[02:19] <ahorner> uhh
[02:19] <Moniker42> then find someone (not me) that knows what he's talking about
[02:19] <ahorner> its not a cd rom
[02:19] <ahorner> its justr a had
[02:19] <ahorner> it shows up in fdisk -l
[02:19] <taime1> erm... sorry
[02:19] <scorp123> danh: you mean for starting stuff?
[02:19] <ramza3> With the file manager, when I open a folder, it displays the full path of the dir with a bunch of buttons for each subfolder, how can I change so it is just text
[02:19] <danh> in FreeBSD, you can specify whether you want /tmp to be cleared out or not, with a line in /etc/rc.conf
[02:19] <Talaman72> rbs-tito, that is the most definitive list?
[02:20] <ahorner> but when i go to mount it says, cant find disk in /ect/fstab
[02:20] <scorp123> !boot | danh
[02:20] <ubotu> danh: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto
[02:20] <scorp123> danh: check out that last part ....
[02:20] <LCCUB> ramza3: there should be a toggle button to the left to switch between text and button view
[02:20] <rbs-tito> Talaman72: It is as definitive as the community makes it. A better option is to find some hardware and google it
[02:20] <ahorner> will somebody help me with mount my other hdd
[02:20] <ramza3> LCCUB, there is
[02:20] <scorp123> danh: /etc/rc*  ... I bet there is a script or something that does that.
[02:20] <danh> ahorner: what is the device name of your hard drive ?
[02:21] <ramza3> LCCUB, gracias
[02:21] <Talaman72> or change os to one that has a better list
[02:21] <LCCUB> ramza3: np
[02:21] <ahorner>  dev/hdb
[02:22] <ahorner> i do mount /dev/hdb but it says cant find /dev/hdb in /ect/fstab
[02:22] <danh> ahorner: sudo mount /dev/hdb /media/mountpoint
[02:22] <HeloDown> scorp: When using https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToAddaLauncher I wouldn't want to just throw the config file into that, yes?
[02:22] <danh> i just made up /media/mountpoint
[02:22] <minerale> taime1: how do I make it automatically login? it's for my roomates
[02:22] <danh> use whatever you want
[02:22] <ahorner> mount: can't find /dev/hdb in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[02:22] <ryan__> I need help dual booting two hard drives one with windows and one with linux
[02:22] <danh> even when you specify the mount point ?
[02:22] <Xenguy> minerale: don't -- create a 'guest' account instead :-)
[02:22] <ryan__> can anyone help?
[02:22] <ahorner> mount point?
[02:23] <danh> yeah
[02:23] <danh> it's a directory
[02:23] <ahorner> whats that
[02:23] <ahorner> where
[02:23] <ahorner> well
[02:23] <ahorner> how do i spescify it
[02:23] <Xenguy> !enter
[02:23] <danh> you 'mount' the disk on to that directory
[02:23] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[02:23] <ahorner> specify*
[02:23] <ahorner> uh
[02:23] <danh> ablabla: first make the mount point, sudo mkdir /media/NAMEOFDISKHERE
[02:23] <danh> oops
[02:23] <danh> i mean ahorner
[02:23] <ahorner> ok
[02:23] <ahorner> lmao
[02:23] <danh> then you 'mount' the disk device on to the directory
[02:23] <younghacker> how do i unpack tar.gz files?
[02:23] <scorp123> ahorner: ... instead of stupid drive letters ... everything is a directory, somewhere somehow :-)
[02:24] <ahorner> a blabla
[02:24] <Elazar> Anyone know why a sudo apt-get upgrade in Ubuntu Server Feisty results in linux-image-server and linux-server being kept back?
[02:24] <ahorner> lol
[02:24] <Xenguy> !enter > ahorner
[02:24] <scorp123> younghacker: tar zxvf tar.file.tgz
[02:24] <ahorner> ..
[02:24] <ahorner> so..
[02:24] <ahorner> sudo mkdir /media/hdb?
[02:24] <Xenguy> ahorner: OK, bye
[02:25] <ahorner> where did it make that dir
[02:25] <minerale> xenguy can you show me how to create a guest account that automatically logs in when computer turns on?
[02:25] <scorp123> ahorner: obviously in the path you specified? :-)
[02:25] <ahorner> uhh
[02:25] <ahorner>  /media/hdb?
[02:25] <ahorner> >_<
[02:25] <scorp123> ahorner: aaaaah, good morning!!! :-)
[02:26] <ahorner> huh
[02:26] <ahorner> its 830 pm
[02:26] <scorp123> ahorner: that's relative
[02:26] <ahorner> lol
[02:26] <Joeb454> different time zones :P
[02:26] <ahorner> .
[02:26] <ahorner> yay ohio
[02:26] <rustalot> Earlier today, my computer was running veeeeerrrrry slowly (opening a nautilus window took 3-4 seconds), even after several reboots, but now it works fine; Beryl runs very well and it's responsive. Any idea what could cause this?
[02:26] <scorp123> ahorner: you may have heard that the world is divided into different time zones? ;-)
[02:26] <ahorner> .... DUH
[02:27] <ahorner> wait, what world?>
[02:27] <scorp123> ahorner: here it's 2:30 :-)
[02:27] <Xenguy> minerale: I would never do that, so I don't know how.  I believe it is possible to automate logins, however; probably through the gdm interface (the login screen where you login), maybe
[02:27] <ryan__> how do you edit nfts from ubuntu what drivers do u need?
[02:27] <ahorner> danh: hey whered u go
[02:27] <scorp123> !ntfs-3g | ryan__

[02:27] <Valerie> ryan -> fdisk =)
[02:27] <ryan__> fdisk?
[02:27] <Xenguy> minerale: I might just create an account 'guest' with a really simple password (like 'guest' ;-)
[02:27] <scorp123> Valerie: LOL
[02:27] <ahorner> ryan -> gparted
[02:27] <HeloDown> I still can not get into the /etc/privoxy/config.txt
[02:27] <ryan__> is that for ubuntu?
[02:27] <ryan__> ok
[02:28] <niter3> where do I define apache's listen IP address???
[02:28] <ahorner> 192.168.1.1
[02:28] <ahorner> lol
[02:28] <ryan__> yea I can use gparted to delete the partition
[02:28] <scorp123> niter3: in it's config file ... /etc/apache.conf or something like that.
[02:28] <Valerie> that solves it
[02:28] <ahorner> ryan_: is there anything important on it
[02:28] <niter3> scorp123: i'm not finding it in that file

[02:30] <Xenguy> HeloDown: don't yell
[02:30] <Valerie> HeloDown: /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
[02:30] <ahorner> soembody help me out
[02:30] <ahorner> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26825/
[02:31] <ryan__> what kind of hard drive size is the max ubuntu will recognize?
[02:31] <scorp123> !ntfs | ahorner
[02:31] <ubotu> ahorner: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[02:31] <Xenguy> minerale: I believe I have seen that it is possible; I just don't remember how that is configured.  Surely a search for 'Ubuntu automatic login' would turn something up, yes?
[02:32] <HeloDown> Valerie, doesn't work: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26826/
[02:32] <ahorner> !ntfs
[02:32] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[02:32] <liquiddoom> minerale: It's quite possible
[02:32] <pete> hey, what happened to xorg
[02:32] <pyrak> i just installed apache and found the www folder but its permissions are limited, do i want to just chmod them or is there good reason to keep that folder locked up?
[02:32] <Valerie> i mount a 250gb ufs2 in ubuntu
[02:32] <drwx------> minerale: look up "GDM" "KIOSK MODE"
[02:32] <scorp123> ryan__: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext3
[02:32] <pyrak> its in /var/ww
[02:32] <ahorner> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26827/
[02:32] <pyrak> /var/www*
[02:32] <Valerie> pyrak chmod it to 755
[02:32] <Xenguy> HeloDown: you need to choose an editor
[02:33] <younghacker> I'm trying to install the adobe flash player in mozilla it is a tar.gz on my desktop
[02:33] <scorp123> pyrak: don't chmod it if you don't know what you do !!!
[02:33] <niter3> nothing
[02:33] <niter3> just Listen 80
[02:33] <Xenguy> HeloDown: e.g.: sudo editorname /path/to/file
[02:33] <pete> I swear a couple of days ago, xorg used to be version 7.2, and today the highest version is 1.3.0.0
[02:33] <youlin> how do you get active ip address listing - arp,ipconfig...
[02:33] <Xenguy> HeloDown: (I assume you want to edit the file?)
[02:34] <Xenguy> youlin: ifconfig
[02:34] <scorp123> HeloDown: duuude, I already told you:  sudo + COMMAND :-)
[02:34] <wastro> does anyone know how I can use my third mouse button as a scroll wheel
[02:34] <wastro> basically holding it down and scrolling up will scroll the page
[02:34] <pete> wastro: yes, you scrolol with it with your finger
[02:34] <drwx------> youlin: you can use netstat for that, i like using 'lsof -i'
[02:34] <ahorner> yay
[02:34] <Valerie> XD
[02:34] <ahorner> i had to do..
[02:34] <ahorner> sudo bash diskmounter
[02:34] <ramza3> hehe, I put firefox on the desktop, uuuuh, why is it twice as large as the other icons
[02:34] <scorp123> ramza3: maybe a 64x64 icon? You can shrink it if you want to.
[02:35] <younghacker> how do you install the flash player in Mozilla?
[02:35] <scorp123> !flash
[02:35] <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
[02:35] <wastro> pete: its the thinkpad way of doing it that im use to
[02:35] <ahorner> wait it didnt work
[02:35] <HeloDown> Xenguy, yes. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26828/
[02:35] <Valerie> mozilla what? thunderbird? =P
[02:35] <wastro> pete: you hold down the button and move the mouse, and it scrolls
[02:35] <scorp123> HeloDown: try gedit
[02:35] <ahorner> ahh /media/
[02:35] <scorp123> HeloDown: sudo gedit /path/to/file ....
[02:36] <pete> wastro: I think you can do that only in firefox... there's an option in Preferences>>advanced that says "use autoscrolling"
[02:36] <Xenguy> scorp123: would a command-line editor be better for sudo?
[02:36] <Xenguy> scorp123: oh, OK, if that works then
[02:36] <ahorner> how do you create a shortcut to a folder
[02:36] <Valerie> to cut the crap on sudo <command> just use sudo -s and destroy your system
[02:36] <youlin> thanks!
[02:36] <Valerie> ahorner:  man ls
[02:36] <ahorner> ..
[02:36] <ahorner> too hard
[02:36] <Xenguy> scorp123: or do you need gksudo for that?
[02:36] <Valerie> ahorner:  man ln *
[02:36] <ahorner> i want gui
[02:36] <scorp123> Xenguy: doesn't matter
[02:36] <rommel_> ok. got an emergency here... hoe the h//l do i install java in ff on ubuntu?
[02:36] <ahorner> like right click create shortcut
[02:37] <ahorner> (yay windows)
[02:37] <Valerie> oh, you wanted in X, good think you specified...
[02:37] <scorp123> !java
[02:37] <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
[02:37] <soundie> hey
[02:37] <HeloDown> scorp, thank you.
[02:37] <ahorner> Valerie: so what do i do
[02:37] <HeloDown> This is like a bang head against wall experience.
[02:38] <scorp123> HeloDown: you just need to *READ* what people write to you
[02:38] <HeloDown> I've been trying my hardest to figure this out all day :)
[02:38] <Xenguy> scorp123: I think gksudo is needed (based on a quick test here)
[02:38] <ahorner> ehh
[02:38] <ahorner> how do i creat a shortcut in x
[02:38] <Xenguy> HeloDown: is gedit not working for you?
[02:38] <scorp123> Xenguy: you're eager getting into my ignore list?
[02:38] <soundie> My sound broke.
[02:38] <HeloDown> yes, it worked
[02:38] <pete> so nobody knows why xorg suddenly switch their versions?
[02:39] <Xenguy> HeloDown: OK good
[02:39] <rommel_> okidoki obontu, since u seem 2 know what da crep u talking bout, i went to suns hp & dl java.bla.bla.bin what next?
[02:39] <ahorner> startx
[02:39] <HeloDown> It's just I couldn't find anything about it in the documentations Xenguy
[02:39] <Valerie> pete: they didn't
[02:39] <pyrak> is anyone in here a web developer?
[02:39] <scorp123> rommel_: ubotu is a *BOT*  :-)
[02:39] <Xenguy> HeloDown: keep your eye on the prize
[02:39] <ahorner> rommel_: oh god dont screw with java its a pain to run on ubuntu
[02:39] <Valerie> pyrak: i'm somewhat a wl, what do you need?
[02:39] <pete> Valerie: it used to be 7.2, and now it is 1.3.0.0
[02:39] <younghacker> and i don't think my Java applets are working correctly i may need to install another package does anyone know the name of it?
[02:39] <ahorner> younghacker: it never works
[02:39] <younghacker> ohhhh
[02:40] <younghacker> lol
[02:40] <ahorner> younghacker: java sucks on ubuntu
[02:40] <drwx------> ahorner: java runs fine for me in Feisty and Firefox
[02:40] <ahorner> ..
[02:40] <Valerie> pete: Most Recent Releases
[02:40] <ahorner> it never works 4 me
[02:40] <Valerie> Current X.Org Foundation release
[02:40] <Valerie> X.Org has released X11R7.2. Click here for a list of all X.Org releases.
[02:40] <Valerie> Important: If you have an older release, please see the SecurityPage for information on security updates.

[02:40] <Valerie> i rest my case
[02:40] <younghacker> wow
[02:40] <ahorner> omg
[02:40] <Pici> Java works fine following the instructions in !java
[02:40] <drwx------> ahorner: maybe you haven't figured out how to do it
[02:40] <ahorner> i was just playing that'
[02:40] <ahorner> but its flash
[02:40] <Xenguy> scorp123: sorry, I honestly forgot this box I'm on is running debian ;-)
[02:40] <niter3> I've installed SSH but it won't start
[02:40] <drwx------> oh
[02:40] <drwx------> huh
[02:40] <pyrak> valerie, i just installed apache and the www directory is only writable by root, so do i chmod that file or do i use the console to stick files in there?
[02:40] <drwx------> ok nevermind!
[02:40] <shadowhywind> usbfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed cmd hald-addon-usb- rqt 192 rq 9 len 8 ret -110
[02:40] <niter3> do I need to generate the keys
[02:40] <ahorner> lol
[02:40] <ahorner> www.runescape.com
[02:40] <niter3> how do I do so for the entire box
[02:40] <shadowhywind> doh
[02:40] <niter3> ?
[02:40] <drwx------> i can compile java class files and run them
[02:40] <younghacker> ok so valerie how did you install it?
[02:41] <shadowhywind> hay all i keep geting these messages in my dmesg usbfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed cmd hald-addon-usb- rqt 192 rq 9 len 8 ret -110 any ideas?
[02:41] <drwx------> i cheated and used the dreaded AUTOMATIX to install it though
[02:41] <ahorner> o!
[02:41] <Joeb454> ahorner: i'm sure it's in a repository somewhere, can't remember which one
[02:41] <ahorner> thats what i wanted to install
[02:41] <Valerie> pyrak: it's a local server for local use?
[02:41] <scorp123> !automatix | drwx------
[02:41] <ahorner> i forgot the name of it
[02:41] <ubotu> drwx------: 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
[02:41] <asdqwezxcdsf> morning
[02:41] <pyrak> valerie, yes
[02:41] <ahorner> !worksforme
[02:41] <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.
[02:41] <ahorner> lol
[02:41] <pete> Valerie: Sorry, I think it must be something distrowatch changed then
[02:41] <pyrak> valerie, just for testing the stuff that i make locally
[02:41] <drwx------> doesn't that ever get old
[02:41] <ahorner> whats so bad about automatix
[02:41] <niter3> i wnat to generate ssh keys for the entire system not per person
[02:41] <asdqwezxcdsf> am interupting something?
[02:42] <niter3> how can I do this?
[02:42] <Valerie> pyrak: just chmod it then
[02:42] <Flashq009> I have installed proftp and read the wiki and and to proftp site, server keeps saying connection refused.  Please help
[02:42] <ahorner> 30 mins left downloading update to 7.04
[02:42] <scorp123> ahorner: it *could* screw up your system ... in theory ... And the ops here don't like it when you recommend it to others.
[02:42] <Valerie> or chown it
[02:42] <pyrak> valerie, in fact, i would like to see if there's a way to make it unviewable outside my machine, because i do hit up public networks from time to time
[02:42] <DanaG> I think I figured out the not-booting issue:
[02:42] <drwx------> niter3: you just want every new user to have the same ssh key pair?
[02:43] <rommel_> i dont give a sh*t if java works on ubuntu or not... i NEED 2 get in to a forum RIGHT now, and it only works with java... and YES! its 4 my own personal best that i get access 2 da crapper right now..... or I'll need 2 find acces 2 a m$  machine in da next 5mins which might prove difficult..
[02:43] <DanaG> Master with Slave != Master with no slave.
[02:43] <Valerie> pyrak: hmmmm, you can always put an .htaccess
[02:43] <DanaG> For WD drives, unjumper them to be single.
[02:43] <niter3> drwx------: however gentoo does it by default
[02:43] <scorp123> !language | rommel_
[02:43] <ubotu> rommel_: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[02:43] <drwx------> niter3: i don't know how gentoo does it
[02:43] <niter3> drwx------: It offers you a new key pair all the time
[02:43] <niter3> to users that never logged in
[02:43] <drwx------> rommel_: give me a root shell on your unix server and i will install java for you
[02:43] <Flashq009> anyone setup proftpd using webmin?  please message me, need assistance.  Thanks
[02:43] <ahorner> yay  sudo apt-get install automatix2
[02:43] <jdrodrig> I lost the top panel, the one with the ubuntu logo and applications, (after enabling desktop effects), how do I recover it?
[02:43] <scorp123> drwx------: I second that :-)
[02:44] <ahorner> grrrrr
[02:44] <Joeb454> ahorner: are you running 7.04?
[02:44] <ahorner> no why
[02:44] <drwx------> niter3: so every time someone tries to ssh to your machine... they are asked to authorize this new ssh key pair?
[02:44] <scorp123> rommel_: yes, give us root shells ... Please :-)
[02:44] <ahorner> its a long story
[02:44] <Joeb454> lol
[02:44] <BURTS> what is the best RTS game for linux atm, wine or native
[02:44] <ahorner> my 7.04 disk for some reason wouldnt let me boot into the hd when it was done installing
[02:44] <niter3> drwx------: I'm not sure how ssh works in gentoo
[02:44] <Joeb454> well if i view all available apps from add/remove and search java it lists a load of java apps, including the JRE
[02:44] <ahorner> and im not retarded i know how to change boot settingf
[02:44] <scorp123> BURTS: RTS = Radio Television Serbia ?? :-)
[02:44] <asdqwezxcdsf> is there anybody here who knows how to fix the audio in this darned system...
[02:45] <drwx------> niter3: so every time someone tries to log into your box, do they get The authenticity of host 'localhost (127.0.0.1)' can't be established.
[02:45] <jaro> Hello
[02:45] <Toma-> BURTS: Warcraft3 :>
[02:45] <Blueblaze> This chat isn't very active for 1000 people :p
[02:45] <drwx------> niter3: something like that?
[02:45] <jaro> How can i mount a dvd with a specific filesystem ??
[02:45] <ahorner> my computer wouldnt recognize it as as bootable
[02:45] <BURTS> warcraft3, has anyone tried spring out?
[02:45] <scorp123> !mount
[02:45] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[02:45] <jaro> because automount doesnt work

[02:45] <Toma-> BURTS: not yet, but it does look quite stunning
[02:45] <ahorner>  sudo apt-get install automatix2
[02:45] <niter3> drwx------: When I first try to login to my one box ssh it gives them a public key then i'm greeted with a password for the username I chose
[02:45] <jaro> i think it was something with -t iso9660
[02:45] <ahorner> julia?
[02:45] <niter3> so i never really get a private key. Authentication is done via password
[02:45] <jdrodrig> how do I recover the top panel (the one with the ubuntu logo and applications and settings?
[02:45] <Flashq009> need help with proftpd , please  help
[02:46] <drwx------> rommel_: i think it's pretty easy to install java for a server, most complains are about using it with a web browser
[02:46] <drwx------> rommel_: you install java, you tell your web application where your java stuff is on your system
[02:46] <younghacker> yes i want to install it in my browser
[02:46] <ahorner> try a runescape private server
[02:46] <ahorner> lol
[02:46] <Joeb454> jdrodrig: did you right click>delete this panel by any chance?
[02:46] <ahorner> rins nice on xp

[02:46] <jdrodrig> Joeb454, nope, I enabled desktop effects only
[02:46] <BURTS> Toma-: yeah i just saw an article on digg about RTS games for linux.  WC3 i may try out tonight, but spring looks promising
[02:46] <younghacker> lol
[02:46] <niter3> drwx------: Better yet forget what I said. I've just done a apt-get install ssh. I can't start the service. It fails.
[02:47] <niter3> drwx------: what do I do now?
[02:47] <younghacker> im running ubuntu in a VM on xp
[02:47] <jdrodrig> Joeb454, both my own created panel and teh default one are gone

[02:47] <Valerie> niter3: install openssh-server
[02:47] <orangesicle> Hi guys: I am trying to compile the Synaptics Touchpad driver and am having some issues.  When I enter the make command in Terminal, it spits out that the process failed because of missing files.  It says that sys/ioctl.h and unistd.h are are missing.  How can install these files?
[02:47] <niter3> Valerie: It's installed

[02:47] <niter3> it fails
[02:47] <ahorner> younghacker: qeum?
[02:47] <ahorner> younghacker: qemu*
[02:48] <Toma-> BURTS: just remember, Spring is very very very early release... like 0.0b

[02:48] <jdrodrig> Re: Joeb454..thanks...let me know...I of course, have a terminal launcher
[02:48] <ahorner> http://vmware.com/
[02:48] <Joeb454> ahorner: vmware player is free, and i used www.easyvmx.com to create the vm
[02:49] <nickrud> jdrodrig, start gconf-editor , and navigate to apps/panel  What do you see under that branch?
[02:49] <BURTS> Toma-: yeah i saw that, but it looks like it will be a good RTS game.  I am just hoping for someone to develop a game like AOE or for wine to support it.
[02:49] <ahorner> ok
[02:49] <ahorner> cool
[02:49] <younghacker> yes some are free some cost
[02:49] <ahorner> ill try that cause i love windows and i love ubuntu
[02:49] <harlemtech> just installed ubuntustudio resolution stuck on 640X480, any help?
[02:49] <daviddd> for a 4 years old laptop, what's the best virtualization choice for me?
[02:49] <younghacker> lol,, look into ACE2
[02:49] <orangesicle> I am trying to compile the Synaptics Touchpad driver and am having some issues.  When I enter the make command in Terminal, it spits out that the process failed because of missing files.  It says that sys/ioctl.h and unistd.h are are missing.  How can install these files?
[02:49] <Toma-> BURTS: yeh i never got into the whole economics on RTS. not vry fun :D
[02:49] <Valerie> niter3: what's the error output?
[02:49] <Joeb454> ahorner: i'm running Ubuntu 7.04 under a vm from Vista Ultimate
[02:49] <younghacker> VMWare ACE2  and look into the VMConverter
[02:49] <ahorner> i have *cough*cracked*cough* vista ultimate
[02:50] <younghacker> lol
[02:50] <ahorner> but xp is nice
[02:50] <nickrud> orangesicle, why are you trying to build that driver, it's already in the kernel
[02:50] <ahorner> faster
[02:50] <jdrodrig> Re: nickrud, I see applets, default_setup, general, global, objects, toplevels
[02:50] <niter3> Valerie: where do I check that?
[02:50] <craigbass1976> Anyone good with apache?  I just know this is something stupid...  No images are loading on my site (www.moultonlumber.com)  However, I made a link (unlinked it since) to the folder where someone ftp'd the files up, type the path in firefox (xxxx.com/website/) and the images loaded fine.  What gives?
[02:50] <drwx----1-> i have a keygen for ubuntu
[02:50] <orangesicle> I am trying to disable Tap to click. I can't find that option in the Xorg conf file
[02:50] <younghacker> haha i have 2008 longhorn beta running in a vm and in this one i have server 2003 enterprise on another vmd
[02:50] <BURTS> Toma-: I am more of FPS person myself, but i moved to a new house in the country with nothing but dial up access.  So that eliminates FPS multiplayer for me
[02:50] <Valerie> niter3: /etc/init.d/ssh restart -> you run this with root access don't you?
[02:50] <nickrud> jdrodrig, does ps -A | grep panel say that gnome-panel is running?
[02:51] <Toma-> BURTS: bummer!
[02:51] <niter3> Valerie: i'm retarded
[02:51] <niter3> nm
[02:51] <ahorner> oh god
[02:51] <ahorner> vm for windows is 1560
[02:51] <ahorner> 150*
[02:51] <jdrodrig> re: nickrud:, you mean lower case a?
[02:51] <ahorner> linux is like 60
[02:51] <orangesicle> Is there any way to disable tap to click from a touchpad without compiling/installing the synaptics driver?
[02:52] <jdrodrig> re: nickrud, I get nothing...
[02:52] <younghacker> ok go to products and go to free virtualizations tab
[02:52] <nickrud> orangesicle, you add Option "TouchpadOff" "2" to the synaptics section of the xorg.conf.  man synaptics has more
[02:52] <Joeb454> lol, ahorner: i had a cracked copy, then my friend gave me a product key, and we now both have "genuine" copies because we activated via telephone :-P
[02:52] <Valerie> niter3: so what's the status?
[02:52] <ahorner> lopl
[02:52] <younghacker> you'll see the free stuff there
[02:52] <ahorner> well
[02:52] <nickrud> jdrodrig, start a terminal, (oh, how to start a terminal)
[02:52] <Valerie> niter3: up and running?
[02:52] <ahorner> i got the express upgrade
[02:52] <ahorner> lol
[02:52] <ahorner> not even legally
[02:52] <ahorner> but..
[02:52] <ahorner> i got it
[02:52] <nickrud> jdrodrig, you're in a terminal already? in X?
[02:52] <ahorner> and i didnt puit in product key and said i have ultimate
[02:52] <Joeb454> lol i downloaded the final version, but have the product key on my ipod as a txt file so i can't lose it
[02:52] <ahorner> then i used skiprem
[02:52] <younghacker> lol the free products work just fine,,, (the paid ones are phenomenal)
[02:53] <Flashq009> why am I getting (connection refused)  when connecting to proftpd?
[02:53] <ahorner> will u send it to me plz? im sick of doink skip rem
[02:53] <ahorner> wel
[02:53] <ahorner> will it work that way
[02:53] <Joeb454> i figured i might as well activate it just to prove MS stupidity in lettin 4 people activate vista with 1 key
[02:53] <ahorner> o
[02:53] <ahorner> by phone?
[02:53] <Valerie> Flashq009: it's a local or remote machine?
[02:53] <younghacker> lol
[02:53] <Flashq009> local
[02:53] <Joeb454> lol, if i find my ipod sometime soon i'll let you know (room's a bit of a mess :P)
[02:53] <ahorner> lol
[02:54] <Valerie> Flashq009: is the service running already'
[02:54] <jdrodrig> nickrud, yes, I managed to create a terminal launcher
[02:54] <ahorner> OMG LOOK MOVING PICTURES ON A BLACK BOX THINGY!
[02:54] <wceoscar> What can i Use to view Live Streaming??????????????? I have VLC but it only allows me to hear audio
[02:54] <ahorner> OMGOGMOGMOGMOGM
[02:54] <Joeb454> i think if you go down to a shop and the product keys are on the side you could blag your way into using one of those
[02:54] <Flashq009> yes, it appears to be
[02:54] <ahorner> they arent on the side
[02:54] <Valerie> wceoscar: mplayer
[02:54] <ahorner> like guildwars lmao
[02:54] <Joeb454> shame, some of them are where i live, it's quite funny
[02:54] <younghacker> thats ironic because theres a strange copy of windows Vista sitting on a share at my school,, now if i could just find my 16 gig thumb drive
[02:54] <nickrud> jdrodrig, then simply type gnome-panel in the terminal (I just retaught myself how to launch an X app from a virtual terminal, so thats good too :)
[02:55] <jdrodrig> nickrud, from ps  -a, Iget only firefox-bin, gaim and ps
[02:55] <ahorner> theyre inside a box inside another box inside a piece of paper with tabs you have to pull on the sides
[02:55] <Valerie> Flashq009: /etc/init.d/proftpd restart -> just to make sure
[02:55] <thundernuts> join #parsix
[02:55] <nickrud> jdrodrig, ps -A
[02:55] <Flashq009> ok
[02:55] <gdb> I'd like to ask if anyone here using Dapper is able to run "xterm" on their systems?
[02:55] <wceoscar> Valerie, I tried Movie player and the same thing happened
[02:55] <ahorner> well im gonna go eat
[02:55] <ahorner> ill cya l8r guys
[02:55] <orangesicle> I double checked my xorg.conf file located in etc/X11 and I have no option for turning off the touchpad.  The entire section for that consists of this: "Section "InputDevice"
[02:55] <orangesicle>     Identifier     "Synaptics Touchpad"
[02:55] <orangesicle>     Driver         "synaptics"

[02:55] <drwx----1-> wceoscar: what kind of streaming media?  if it's wacky streaming asf , you might be out of luck
[02:55] <younghacker> see ya ahorner
[02:55] <asdqwezxcdsf> is there anybody who would be willing to help out a bit?
[02:55] <nickrud> orangesicle, add it
[02:56] <ahorner> younghacker: bye
[02:56] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: sure
[02:56] <younghacker> 1
[02:56] <wceoscar> Its live Streaming, audio and video
[02:56] <metbsd> i still can't play mp3 in amorak
[02:56] <_peerless> so I am trying to install dapper via a usb stick, it installed but said grub failed to install, so I tried lilo and it also faild to install.  and now I dont knw how to boot into it manually or what went wrong
[02:56] <_peerless> any ideas
[02:56] <wceoscar> www.massivegroove.com
[02:56] <iTurtle> !help
[02:56] <asdqwezxcdsf> i got sound problems

[02:56] <Valerie> wceoscar:  install w32codecs =)
[02:56] <metbsd> and there's my sound from myh speaker
[02:56] <wceoscar> thanks
[02:56] <jdrodrig> nickrud:, ok, ps -A lists a lot but no panel, let me try your trick
[02:56] <ahorner> all knowing?
[02:56] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: what's wrong?
[02:56] <ahorner> !anything
[02:56] <ubotu> So, you wanted to lure me into saying I don't know anything about anything? Yeah, that would be funny, of course. Now leave me alone.
[02:56] <ahorner> omg
[02:56] <orangesicle> Ahh! Hah. Thank you very much, nickrud!
[02:56] <ahorner> wdf i say that all the time
[02:56] <ahorner> ahhh
[02:56] <younghacker> lol
[02:56] <ahorner> !anything
[02:56] <Flashq009> Valerie: It started from inetd
[02:56] <iTurtle> !language | ahorner
[02:56] <ubotu> ahorner: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[02:56] <ahorner> *sigh*
[02:57] <craigbass1976> nickrud, Another question if you've got the patience.  I just know this is something stupid...  No images are loading on my site (www.moultonlumber.com)  However, I made a link (unlinked it since) to the folder where someone ftp'd the files up, type the path in firefox (xxxx.com/website/) and the images loaded fine.  What gives?
[02:57] <iTurtle> How can I run Mac applications on Ubuntu?
[02:57] <asdqwezxcdsf> the sound is not working in some aplications
[02:57] <ahorner> unlike the guy that said 'cunt' 200 times earlier today?
[02:57] <jdrodrig> nickrud: gnome-panel, worked perfectly, let me try log off and on to see if stays like that...
[02:57] <ahorner> lol
[02:57] <skinpad> cunt cunt cunt cunt cunt cunt cunt cunt
[02:57] <ahorner> was anybody here to watch that
[02:57] <nickrud> orangesicle, you might want to read that man page, synaptics, and enable SHMConfig. then you can experiment with how sensitive the touchpad is
[02:57] <asdqwezxcdsf> it worked before i rebooted
[02:57] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: how old is your system?
[02:57] <HeloDown> scorp123 or Xenguy  do any of you know about the ATI commands in terminal for Fiesty? When I was using them to attempt to make my Resolution larger, it wasn't working. The Doc has only been updated for 6.10 though.
[02:57] <ahorner> no it was 2 full text lines
[02:57] <asdqwezxcdsf> new
[02:57] <iTurtle> ahorner: what is that?
[02:57] <ahorner> nvm
[02:57] <ahorner> i g2g
[02:57] <ahorner> bye
[02:57] <asdqwezxcdsf> it worked befire
[02:57] <asdqwezxcdsf> fore*
[02:57] <foso> hey guys, having a couple problems, first off, i cant get my ipod to work
[02:58] <Valerie> Flashq009: when you connect it asks for user and password or it refuses before that?
[02:58] <wceoscar> Valerie, I searched w32 on synaptic and found this GNU win32 (cross) runtime
[02:58] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: how old is your system, though?
[02:58] <wceoscar> is this it?
[02:58] <asdqwezxcdsf> it acts like a woman
[02:58] <Flashq009> yes
[02:58] <gdb> Is anyone here able to run xterm on their systems?
[02:58] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: "woman" isn't an age ;)
[02:58] <asdqwezxcdsf> 2800+. 9600xt, 1 GB, integrated nForce2
[02:58] <orangesicle> Thank you very much, Nickrud.  I will mess around with it. :)
[02:58] <orangesicle> Off to restart!
[02:58] <santims> are there any programs available for ubuntu that can create the Expose feature found in OS X??????
[02:58] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: do you have Feisty?
[02:58] <_peerless> from a boot prompt, how can i boot into hda, where is the linux kernel located?
[02:58] <TheCougar> installing the new vmplayer do i want the 'tar' or the 'rpm'. will .rpm files exicute on ubuntu?
[02:58] <Valerie> wceoscar: go to mplayer website, google it and search codec pack for linux and read the readme to install them
[02:58] <asdqwezxcdsf> yes
[02:58] <drwx----1-> gdb: i'm running xterm RIGHT NOW
[02:58] <iTurtle> santims: beryl, I think....
[02:58] <Valerie> then use mplayer for the streaming
[02:58] <gdb> drwx----1-: And your release, which is it?
[02:59] <CorpseFeeder> anyone know how to make an old IBM NetVista machine boot from the CD drive?
[02:59] <drwx----1-> santims: do you mean the whoooshing flying windows stuff?
[02:59] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: hold on just a second.....
[02:59] <drwx----1-> gdb: Feisty Faun
[02:59] <asdqwezxcdsf> the thing is it worked before
[02:59] <Toma-> What does expose do?
[02:59] <Flashq009> it does not ask for username or password, I just connect to ftp x.x.x.x, connection refused
[02:59] <nickrud> craigbass1976, not really a clue. I run a couple of web sites on a hosted site, and have a localhost server that I test stuff on, but am absolutely not an apache guru. I've just picked up what I need here and there. The only thing I'd suggest is examine SymLink stuff
[02:59] <asdqwezxcdsf> and then it stopped working
[02:59] <asdqwezxcdsf> for some programs
[02:59] <iTurtle> CorpseFeeder: try loading up the BIOS and setting boot settings
[02:59] <gdb> drwx----1-: Ah, ok.  I'm not able to run xterm on either of 2 dapper systems.  One is my home machine and has some software installed from Universe/Multiverse, the other is at work and has nothing not in Main installed.
[02:59] <drwx----1-> gdb: xterm runs on everything
[02:59] <gdb> drwx----1-: I'm wondering if I'm alone in this issue or if I should file a bug report.
[02:59] <asdqwezxcdsf> when im doing the sound test it gives me the beep
[02:59] <foso> anyone know how to use gtkpod or something similar?
[02:59] <gdb> drwx----1-: Apparently it does not.
[03:00] <iTurtle> !bugs | gdb
[03:00] <ubotu> gdb: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug report at: http://bugs.ubuntu.com/  -  Bugs in/wishes for the bots can be filed at http://launchpad.net/products/ubuntu-bots
[03:00] <CorpseFeeder> iTurtle: I tried that but the only options the lame BIOS gives is boot from local drives or from network.
[03:00] <Valerie> Flashq009: well, you may have the ftp running on a port != 21, you may not have the proftpd conf accepting connections
[03:00] <gdb> iTurtle: I'm well aware of the process.  Thank you.
[03:00] <drwx----1-> gdb: if xterm doesn't run, what does run on your desktop then?
[03:00] <iTurtle> gdb: sorry
[03:00] <TheCougar> and should i remove vmware player 1.0 first before installing 2.0?
[03:00] <Valerie> Flashq009: it really can be lots of things =|
[03:00] <santims> http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/expose/         yes it has the whooshing thing with the windows
[03:00] <iTurtle> CorpseFeeder: then your machine is probably too old
[03:00] <gdb> drwx----1-: Everything else. ;-)  I'm using gnome-terminal at the moment.
[03:00] <iTurtle> santims: beryl
[03:00] <drwx----1-> santims: look up 'beryl'
[03:00] <CorpseFeeder> iTurtle: and choosing local drives apparently does not include CD-roms :(
[03:00] <iTurtle> santims: beryl does that in openSUSE, so it might do that in ubuntu
[03:00] <gdb> iTurtle: No worries.
[03:00] <Joeb454> just wondering: has anybody got Ubuntu to run on an older Dell? (i.e. 1-2 years old)
[03:00] <iTurtle> CorpseFeeder: then your machine's too old....
[03:01] <santims> iTurtle: thank you i will check that out
[03:01] <nickrud> Joeb454, lol, you call that old?
[03:01] <iTurtle> Joeb454: uhmm.... my computer is 8 years old and running ubuntu just fine :)
[03:01] <Valerie> santims: beryl does expose
[03:01] <Joeb454> well not older, but older?
[03:01] <Toma-> Joeb454: older (ie 7-8 yrs) yes
[03:01] <iTurtle> Joeb454: mine is 8 yrs old.
[03:01] <drwx----1-> gdb: have you tried rxvt ?  do you have 234232322432 gnome-terminals running?  maybe you ran out of ttys?  did you try a different window manager like KDE or fluxbox ?
[03:01] <CorpseFeeder> Is it possible to use the boot from network method?
[03:01] <santims> i just abandoned macs for a few months so i am having a hard time without it
[03:01] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: System > Prefs > Sound
[03:01] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: first tab, at bottom, try configuring devices
[03:01] <CorpseFeeder> Is it possible to install ubuntu using the boot from network method?
[03:01] <Valerie> santims: i guess it's even in f9 also
[03:02] <ramza3> is there a way to launch folders from the desktop (and not use a link) but launch it such that the absolute path is used
[03:02] <Joeb454> because I can't get it to run AT ALL, something about graphics drivers, but i've tried without graphics card, but nothing, so i'm running under vmware now
[03:02] <gdb> Here is a pastebin of the problem. The error is identical on both systems: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26829/
[03:02] <asdqwezxcdsf> "nForce2 alsa mixer"
[03:02] <Toma-> Valerie: no, like the modern macs, you just move the mouse to the top right corner
[03:02] <iTurtle> Joeb454: sudo lspci to see your graphics card
[03:02] <santims> Valerie: what you mean about f9?
[03:02] <Valerie> Toma yeah, it does that also
[03:02] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: try choosing the other one... see what it does
[03:02] <_peerless> is it possible to throw the hd-media vmlinuz/initrd and a sysconfig.cfg and a ubuntu.iso file and install it from a usb stick?
[03:02] <Joeb454> when? during install or now? because i know what the card is now lol
[03:02] <foso> ok, ill try another question, i know this one is common, but i cant figure it on searching, broadcom wireless wont work
[03:02] <drwx----1-> CorpseFeeder: there's a way, you have to set up a server for it though on your local network
[03:03] <Toma-> santims: its exactly like the mac version of expose in beryl
[03:03] <asdqwezxcdsf> then nothing works
[03:03] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: play around with the controls and see what you get
[03:03] <santims> do i want to install Beryl Manager Beryl and Settings Manager???
[03:03] <drwx----1-> CorpseFeeder: and get dhcpd and tfpd running, it's a lot of work
[03:03] <iTurtle> santims: yes
[03:03] <asdqwezxcdsf> sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2debian-all   this worked before
[03:03] <Valerie> santims: if you press f9 on the mac it does the expose, in beryl also
[03:03] <JimC> anyone here successfully used pptp-client on dapper ? (particulary together with relakks pptp service or other pptp servers designed for windows clients using encryption and chap v2) - i got it connected, but after manually adding routing the pptpclient gives me 1-3 errors/s telling me unsupported protocoll XXXX - as if it isnt understanding my ip packets at all, any hints? also it should setup routing automatically but isnt, gives me ARP proxy error and 'defa
[03:03] <asdqwezxcdsf> then it stopped working again
[03:03] <iTurtle> santims: then you'd choose beryl-manager to turn beryl on
[03:03] <drwx----1-> CorpseFeeder: ive never seen something like redhat's install over net floppy for ubuntu
[03:03] <CorpseFeeder> drwx----1-: is there a tutorial somewhere to show me how?
[03:03] <santims> iTurtle:  okay thanks
[03:03] <TheCougar> how do i install a .rpm ?
[03:03] <santims> Valerie: thank you as well
[03:03] <iTurtle> santims: an icon appears in the notification area
[03:03] <iTurtle> !rpm | TheCougar
[03:03] <ubotu> TheCougar: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[03:03] <CorpseFeeder> oh.. ok.
[03:04] <gdb> TheCougar: You'll want to use the utility 'alien' to convert it to a deb and then install that normally.
[03:04] <gdb> (With the aforementioned caveats, yes)
[03:04] <minerale> can someon suggest a text based rss reader?
[03:04] <drwx----1-> CorpseFeeder: i found one by googling for 'install from network ubuntu'
[03:04] <Valerie> ubotu: ubuntu uses .DEB not APT
[03:04] <drwx----1-> CorpseFeeder: i wish there was a sane install over network option for ubuntu!

[03:04] <Toma-> Valerie: ....lol
[03:04] <TheCougar> gdb: i can also get a .tar file. should i get that?
[03:04] <Valerie> let's just teach the bot
[03:04] <iTurtle> Valerie: ubotu is a robot
[03:04] <Valerie> i know
[03:04] <iTurtle> oh :)
[03:04] <Valerie> ;)
[03:05] <gdb> TheCougar: Well, this may be an opportunity for you to learn how to package software in deb format from source. ;-)
[03:05] <TheCougar> gdb: not really looking for that oppertunity:) i just want vmware player 2.0:)
[03:05] <gdb> TheCougar: Of course, you're free to compile from source and install the software in /usr/local or somesuch.

[03:05] <troy_> Does anyone now how I change my default media player
[03:05] <iTurtle> IndyGunFreak: she knows
[03:05] <IndyGunFreak> iTurtle: i was just kiddin..
[03:05] <IndyGunFreak> ubotu is a weatlh of info.
[03:05] <iTurtle> IndyGunFreak: ;)
[03:06] <gdb> TheCougar: Ah so this is a tar of a binary program.  Yes, I'd get the tar and put it in /opt/vmware myself, but you can place it in /usr/local as well.
[03:06] <Joeb454> Valerie: No i get an error saying in can't be read, usually an encoding error
[03:06] <iTurtle> Since some people have been talking about macs here, I'd like to ask this question: how can I use a mac app under Linux ( I've been able to do the opposite)
[03:06] <iTurtle> ?
[03:06] <santims> so Beryl Settings manager first then beryl manager?
[03:06] <gdb> or /opt/vmware-player or somesuch
[03:06] <nickrud> troy_, you right click a media type in the file manager, select properties at the bottom and the open with tab in the dialog
[03:06] <iTurtle> santims: doesnt matter the order
[03:06] <foso> i had something before that when i clicked on my network icon it open a list with wifi and wired options, but i cant find that after i reinstalled
[03:06] <drwx----1-> iTurtle: nope
[03:06] <Valerie> troy_: right click on file, properties -> open with
[03:06] <TheCougar> gdb: so just over ride the files there for 1.0 and i'm done?
[03:06] <iTurtle> santims: after you install them, beryl-manager will turn things on.
[03:06] <iTurtle> drwx----1-: no what?
[03:07] <Valerie> Joeb454: chmod 777 the .package
[03:07] <gdb> TheCougar: Well, I'd probably back up what you have.  What I normally do is say I have this -- /opt/vmware-player-1.0, /opt/vmware-player-2.0 and then a symlink /opt/vmware-player -> vmware-player-2.0 or so
[03:07] <Joeb454> valerie: your talking to a relative newcomer here, lol
[03:07] <CorpseFeeder> What happens if you chmod 888 something? Does the earth explode?
[03:08] <gdb> You can then move the symlink around to change versions, and keep older versions available on your system.
[03:08] <santims> there are a lot of settings!
[03:08] <iTurtle> Valerie, since you're in Portugal, you could try #ubuntu-pt
[03:08] <iTurtle> santims: with beryl-manager you should have a little icon in the notification area ( a ruby )
[03:08] <troy_> nickrud and Valerie . . thanks guys, I've been looking for that forever :-(
[03:08] <drwx----1-> foso: Gnome or KDE ?
[03:08] <Flashq009> I think I practically pulled all my hair out trying to figure out proftpd on ubuntu and why it keeps telling me connection refused.  May I will just pull proftpd out.
[03:08] <Valerie> iTurtle: sucks =)
[03:08] <Xenguy> CorpseFeeder: no, that's 777 ;-)
[03:08] <iTurtle> Valerie: what do you mean?
[03:08] <xpoint> i have a broken package that i dont know how to fix, synaptic says i need to remove it before i can upgrade, but the remove of configlets-frontends fails since update-configlets missing
[03:08] <foso> rwx----1-i think gnome
[03:08] <Elazar> Anyone know why a sudo apt-get upgrade in Ubuntu Server Feisty results in linux-image-server and linux-server being kept back?
[03:08] <asdqwezxcdsf> iTurtle still there?
[03:08] <iTurtle> Valerie: I speak Portuguese if you need help.
[03:09] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: yes
[03:09] <gdb> I'm having an issue starting xterm on 2 dapper systems.  The error is identical on both.  The pastebin is here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26829/
[03:09] <foso> drwx----1- i think i have gnome
[03:09] <Valerie> iTurtle: estou mais para ajudar do que para pedir ajuda ;)
[03:09] <asdqwezxcdsf> did you get the private messages?
[03:09] <drwx----1-> foso: do you have the package 'network-manager-gnome' installed ?
[03:09] <Joeb454> Valerie: gedit says unable to read character coding
[03:09] <santims> this is exactly what i was looking for!!!! thanks folks!
[03:09] <iTurtle> Valerie: eu tambem ;) mais eu vi que vc perguntou alguma coisa. sem importanc,ia
[03:09] <Flashq009> well, I will get something to eat and let my hair grow, before pulling out again
[03:10] <asdqwezxcdsf> iTurtle: did you get the private messages?
[03:10] <foso> drwx----1- yeah
[03:10] <Valerie> Joeb454: open a shell, sudo chmod 777 /whatsoever/something.package
[03:10] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: no. pm's apparently don't work with gaim. hold on....
[03:10] <OmegaCenti> Whats the best place to get info (like manuals) for the modules loaded? like if I want to know what a certain module does
[03:10] <Valerie> iTurtle: devo ter perguntado para saber mais informao para ajudar ;)
[03:11] <drwx----1-> gdb: i think you have fonts installed on your local machine, that are not installed on your remote machine
[03:11] <xehp> OmegaCenti: kernel source?
[03:11] <Pici> !english
[03:11] <ubotu> The #ubuntu, #kubuntu and #xubuntu channels are English only. For a complete list of channels in other languages, please visit http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat
[03:11] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: try it again
[03:11] <OmegaCenti> xehp: I have no idea.
[03:11] <gdb> drwx----1-: xterm is being run on the local machine in both cases
[03:11] <asdqwezxcdsf> now?
[03:11] <iTurtle> Pici: we were just saying "we're here to help, not be helped completely" in portuguese
[03:11] <asdqwezxcdsf> im using gaim too
[03:11] <wabz> hi, I've got sun-java5-{bin,jre} installed, but I don't have a java executable - what's going on?!?
[03:11] <gdb> I'm really at a loss here why something as simple as xterm won't start.
[03:11] <drwx----1-> foso: no idea.  maybe blowing away ~/.gnome will help
[03:12] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: hold on... let me try something
[03:12] <gdb> I've tried creating a clean test user and run into the same issue.
[03:12] <xehp> OmegaCenti: well, the kernel should have a description at the top of each source file of the modules
[03:12] <user_> hmm, guys, can anyone advise some lightweight partitioning program for using on a floppy:boot floppy?:)
[03:12] <foso> drwx----1- what does that mean
[03:12] <siimo> Hi i have a  nForce 430 MCP61 chip based motherboard and Ubuntu 7.04  doesnt work well with it...  the sound card has high pitch screeching noises when playing anything?? help!! please
[03:12] <OmegaCenti> xehp: Might you know how I would access this information?
[03:12] <nickrud> xpoint, could you post the complete error on paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[03:12] <xehp> OmegaCenti: well, you can download kernel sources from kernel.org, or it could be in the package manager
[03:12] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf, did you get anything?
[03:13] <asdqwezxcdsf> no
[03:13] <Xenguy> user_: cfisk  ?
[03:13] <Valerie> Joeb454: after that the double click should work... tell me if so
[03:13] <nickrud> OmegaCenti, install linux-doc
[03:13] <theunixgeek> asdqwezxcdsf, let me try again
[03:13] <Joeb454> ok just trying now
[03:13] <OmegaCenti> will do
[03:13] <user_> Xenguy: okay, ty, ill check some info on it
[03:13] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: what about now?
[03:14] <Xenguy> user_: hrm, that was from memory, and now I don't see it :-/
[03:14] <drwx----1-> gdb: try this
[03:14] <asdqwezxcdsf> still nothing
[03:14] <OmegaCenti> How do I find out from the command line what files were installed from a certain package?
[03:14] <asdqwezxcdsf> im just gonna paste em here
[03:14] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: wait
[03:14] <drwx----1-> gdb: sudo dpkg -i --force-confmiss /var/cache/apt/archives/x11-common_*.deb
[03:14] <Nutubuntu> Will removing Evolution cause problems? I'm running Feisty, if that makes a difference.
[03:14] <Joeb454> :'( can't get it right, lol, no such package exists i'm gettin, the path seems right though
[03:14] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: if you're going to paste +4 lines, use an online pastebi
[03:14] <iTurtle> *pastebin
[03:15] <nickrud> OmegaCenti, dpkg -L <pkg>
[03:15] <iTurtle> Nutubuntu: I think it's connected somehow to OpenOffice
[03:15] <Valerie> Joeb454: where is your file located?
[03:15] <OmegaCenti> nickrud: thanks
[03:15] <user_> Xenguy: hehe, me neither :)
[03:15] <gdb> drwx----1-: thanks, liet me try that
[03:15] <Joeb454> desktop
[03:15] <asdqwezxcdsf> im just gonna write em again
[03:15] <Xenguy> user_: oh well; it used to exist on debian.  Now I don't see it on either Ubu or Deb <shrug>
[03:15] <gdb> i'll need to d/l the package again
[03:15] <asdqwezxcdsf>  sound in vlc, some of the games, browser etc. works
[03:15] <asdqwezxcdsf> but it doesen't work in some games
[03:15] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: so you're in finland? I'm trying to learn Finnish (cuz it's Linus's language)
[03:15] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: what games?
[03:15] <Valerie> open a new shell and type: sudo chmod 777 /Desktop/whatever.package
[03:15] <asdqwezxcdsf>  like enemy territory and games under wine
[03:16] <nickrud> Nutubuntu, no, not really. It'll remove ubuntu-desktop, but you won't need that until it's time to upgrade. You need the space that evolution takes up?
[03:16] <drwx----1-> Finnish has like 23 tenses
[03:16] <wabz> how come when I do apt-get install azureus, then run azureus, I get exec: 40: java: not found ??
[03:16] <user_> Xenguy: :)
[03:16] <asdqwezxcdsf> :D
[03:16] <asdqwezxcdsf> haha
[03:16] <drwx----1-> give up
[03:16] <iTurtle> drwx----1-: that's why it's fun
[03:16] <asdqwezxcdsf> yes im a fin
[03:16] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: cool
[03:16] <asdqwezxcdsf> everything worked today
[03:16] <iTurtle> drwx----1-: if little toddlers learn the language, why couldn't I?
[03:16] <user_> Xenguy: just need to partition my 171mb hd from floppy, als would be good if ive been able to boot from it..
[03:17] <Nutubuntu> iTurtle, there is some support for the Evolution addressbook in OO.o, but ... nickrud, not so much the space issue as that I've never used it in 2-3 yrs and don't expect to, and I'm configuring a new Feisty box, so thought I'd leave it out
[03:17] <Joeb454> Valerie: chmod: cannot access `/Desktop/package.package': No such file or directory
[03:17] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: what games doesn't it work in?
[03:17] <asdqwezxcdsf> suddenly nothing from wine games and enemy territory
[03:17] <iTurtle> Nutubuntu: try it then
[03:17] <nickrud> wabz, install java from add/remoe
[03:17] <drwx----1-> wabz: you need to have java installed to run azeururues
[03:17] <nickrud> *remove
[03:17] <asdqwezxcdsf> not in wine games and lxDoom
[03:17] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: wine... always gives me sound problems.....
[03:17] <asdqwezxcdsf> :D
[03:17] <asdqwezxcdsf> wine worked perfectly
[03:17] <Xenguy> user_: what about good ol' fdisk then?
[03:17] <Valerie> Joeb454: what's the filename ?
[03:17] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: Wine goes perfect with 7.04. Wanna know why?
[03:17] <wabz> drwx----1-: so why didn't apt-get install azureus install it? It did install a bunch of gcj stuff
[03:17] <drwx----1-> iTurtle: little toddlers have an easier time of learning languages than old nerds
[03:17] <asdqwezxcdsf> but the thing is some of the nonewine games donw work
[03:17] <Nutubuntu> nickrud, I think the only ubuntu-desktop dependency is evolution-webcal
[03:18] <drwx----1-> wabz: you don't have the java executable in your path
[03:18] <iTurtle> drwx----1-: I'm not old, and I already speak 3.01 languages
[03:18] <drwx----1-> wabz: what does 'which java' say
[03:18] <iTurtle> ;)
[03:18] <Joeb454> Valerie: amsn.package
[03:18] <user_> Xenguy: hmm, ill try
[03:18] <dchky> I wonder if smurfs use ubuntu?
[03:18] <asdqwezxcdsf> jesus the amoung of text here is giving me the creeps :D
[03:18] <wabz> drwx----1-: it claims 'java' is provided by java-gcj-compat, which "is already the newest version"
[03:18] <Valerie> wabz: azureus for linux sucks
[03:18] <Joeb454> dchky: yes
[03:18] <wabz> drwx----1-: which java doesn't return anything
[03:18] <Xenguy> user_: probably as small as it gets too
[03:18] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: Wine is feisty, like a feisty fawn (i love puns :P )
[03:18] <drwx----1-> wabz: 'java' is not in your path then
[03:18] <nickrud> Nutubuntu, oh, goody, ubuntu-desktop is getting more sophisticated!
[03:18] <asdqwezxcdsf> iTurtle: are you using messenger?
[03:18] <wabz> Valerie: I don't care about your (worthless) opinion, I just want to get java working
[03:19] <wabz> drwx----1-: 'java' isn't ANYWHERE
[03:19] <Nutubuntu> :)
[03:19] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: gaim
[03:19] <asdqwezxcdsf> msn i mean :D
[03:19] <drwx----1-> wabz: i thought you ssaid java-gcj-compat was installed ?
[03:19] <Valerie> wabz: if you dont care then dont ask... troll alert!
[03:19] <wabz> it is
[03:19] <Joeb454> wabz: go to add/remove and enable all repositories, and search for java
[03:19] <iTurtle> !polite
[03:19] <drwx----1-> wabz: i dont have such a thing installed, but what does ' dpkg -l java-gcj-compat | grep java' say ?
[03:19] <iTurtle> !kind
[03:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about polite - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[03:21] <OmegaCenti> I have been trying to find out everything there is to know about acpi/apm/hibernate/suspend, so that I may troubleshoot/fix my hibernate/suspend issues. Any help would be appreciated.
[03:21] <Valerie> Joeb454: off to the shell again and type:   ./Desktop/amsn.package
[03:22] <asdqwezxcdsf> didn't you get mine?
[03:22] <gdb> drwx----1-: It did reinstall x11-common, but the issue persists.
[03:22] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: i accidentally closed it :(
[03:22] <asdqwezxcdsf> are you getting the messages?
[03:22] <Valerie> Joeb454:  sudo ./Desktop/amsn.package
[03:22] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: no... are you getting mine?
[03:22] <asdqwezxcdsf> yes
[03:22] <Nutubuntu> Does a desktop computer need acpi? Or is it useful just for laptops?
[03:22] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: that's weird.
[03:22] <asdqwezxcdsf> hmmh
[03:23] <asdqwezxcdsf> do you have msn address?
[03:23] <iTurtle> Try Conversation>New Instant Message and type in "iTurtle" under the IRC
[03:23] <Valerie> Nutubuntu: yes, it needs, hyperthreading for instance needs acpi
[03:23] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: yes. citiskyline@hotmail.com
[03:23] <Nutubuntu> t/y Valerie :)
[03:23] <Valerie> Nutubuntu: n/p
[03:23] <|Porsche> whats the command to start an xterm server?
[03:23] <Joeb454> lol, Valerie: it might be that AutoPackage wasn't installed *is embarassed*
[03:24] <Music_Shuffle> !acpi
[03:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about acpi - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:24] <dchky> an xterm server? try xterm
[03:24] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: what's yours?
[03:24] <Music_Shuffle> Valerie, prolly a stupid question, but what does acpi do/help with?
[03:24] <asdqwezxcdsf> did you get the invitation?
[03:24] <iTurtle> ye
[03:24] <iTurtle> s
[03:25] <Joeb454> YAY thanks Valerie :0D
[03:25] <Valerie> Music_Shuffle: it's not a stupid question because i thought it was stupid to do that, but the fact is that it doesn't work without it
[03:25] <iTurtle> how can i run mac apps?
[03:25] <Joeb454> :-D *
[03:25] <asdqwezxcdsf> iTurtle?
[03:25] <Valerie> Joeb454: n/p

[03:25] <iTurtle> yes
[03:25] <Joeb454> lol
[03:25] <asdqwezxcdsf> i cant get a message through
[03:26] <erat123> hi all, got a question.  does anyone know how to burn a dvd or cd under ubuntu server 6.06?
[03:26] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: it says you're offline
[03:26] <Music_Shuffle> Valerie, ...except that doesn't tell -me- what it does, which is what I asked that I thought was a stupid question.

[03:26] <Joeb454> never thought about needing autopackage :-P
[03:26] <asdqwezxcdsf> sorry...
[03:26] <Valerie> Music_Shuffle: I really don't know, i just know it does XD
[03:26] <dchky> I guess you can't say "What" asdqwezxcdsf
[03:26] <Music_Shuffle> Haha works well enough I guess :P
[03:26] <dchky> :-)
[03:26] <pete> erat123: you could try adding the program gnomebaker
[03:26] <xpoint> nickrud, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26832/
[03:27] <iTurtle> dchky: you know why i did that...
[03:27] <asdqwezxcdsf> im so ****** off at the moment it is impossible...
[03:27] <Valerie> Music_Shuffle: I disabled acpi and my audio card also stopped working... computer move in mysterious ways
[03:27] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf, *sigh*
[03:27] <dchky> Sit down and tell me about your childhood asdqwezxcdsf  - talking about things helps.
[03:27] <pete> erat123: sorry, nevermind that... i didn't fully see your question

[03:27] <erat123> that's ok.
[03:27] <OmegaCenti> When I suspend, it kinda works, but when it comes back up my mouse will not move. Hibernation tries to hibernate, and it turns off the laptop, but when I try and boot, its just like I shutdown my computer.
[03:27] <erat123> i'm not using gnome or kde, just bash

[03:27] <asdqwezxcdsf> (04:27:33) Citi: hi
[03:28] <iTurtle> asdqwezxcdsf: i have to go now
[03:28] <Valerie> erat123: what irc client you'r using?
[03:28] <dchky> by iTurtle
[03:28] <dchky> bye*
[03:28] <iTurtle> bye
[03:28] <erat123> i'm using xchat
[03:28] <asdqwezxcdsf> why wont this thing work
[03:28] <Valerie> you said no kde nor gnome just bash...
[03:28] <mcquaid> #compiz
[03:28] <wabz> so why doesn't apt-get install azureus install all the required packages?
[03:28] <erat123> valerie: yep, just bash
[03:29] <wabz> particularly, why do I not end up with 'java'?
[03:29] <Joeb454> wabz: are you running feisty (7.04)?
[03:29] <pete> erat123: what about the package wodim ?
[03:29] <wabz> Joeb454: yes
[03:29] <erat123> I'll look it up really quick
[03:29] <mehdi> gg
[03:29] <pete> erat123: synaptic describes wodim as a "command line CD/DVD writing tool"
[03:30] <dchky> Why don't you just apt-get install java*
[03:30] <imbecile> whats the command tou install kde? is it gksu apt-get install kde-desktop?
[03:30] <Joeb454> go to Applications>Add/Remove then make sure the drop down box says "All Available Packages" and the search "java" (w/out quotes)
[03:30] <Valerie> wabz: i'm just giving my unwanted opinio anyway and say for you to forget azureus, java sucks on linux, i'm not kidding. It's damn slow and azureus has problems with notification popus
[03:30] <wabz> dchky: because I don't want to do random things that _may_ fix it? I want to know what the problem is, and fix it properly
[03:30] <dchky> Then check your logs and quit whining.
[03:30] <nickrud> xpoint, can't you open that file in a text editor to cut and paste from?
[03:31] <nickrud> xpoint, just sat back down
[03:31] <Senesence> Someone say my name please.
[03:31] <asdqwezxcdsf> is there anybody here who knows why the sound is not working in some programs...
[03:31] <dchky> Senesence:
[03:31] <imbecile> Senesence,
[03:31] <Music_Shuffle> Senesence,
[03:31] <xpoint> nickrud, i did on the paste
[03:31] <Valerie> wabz: if you need java only for azureus, just install another torrent manager
[03:31] <imbecile> lol
[03:31] <Music_Shuffle> lol
[03:31] <Senesence> lol, thanks guys
[03:31] <imbecile> lol again
[03:31] <Music_Shuffle> !kde
[03:31] <Senesence> Was it really that funny?
[03:31] <ubotu> KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu. To install from Ubuntu:  sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop , or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE) . Latest KDE version is 3.5.7 for Feisty, 3.5.6 for Edgy, and 3.5.5 for Dapper. See http://kubuntu.org) for more information.
[03:31] <Joeb454> wabz: let me know if that works
[03:31] <Nutubuntu> imbecile, if you want a minimal KDE, apt-get install kde-core; see http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/kde-core
[03:31] <nickrud> xpoint, what I need to see is the error part, particularly the one that might say postrm or prerm
[03:31] <asdqwezxcdsf> ...
[03:31] <imbecile> Senesence,  i thought it was
[03:31] <wabz> Joeb454: searching java worked, yes
[03:32] <qnyc> imbecile, and use sudo for command line apps instead of gksu
[03:32] <Music_Shuffle> imbecile, you can use the package kubuntu-desktop like the factoid suggests if you want it as well :)
[03:32] <Senesence> imbecile, Yea, come to think of it, it was wasn't it.
[03:32] <wabz> Joeb454: the point is, gcj is installed, yet I don't have a java executable
[03:32] <toki> hey guys
[03:32] <Music_Shuffle> Senesence, without a doubt :)
[03:32] <Music_Shuffle> hi toki.
[03:32] <Joeb454> wabz: I'm sure I saw the JRE in there somewhere
[03:32] <unrealsword> hey is anyone using compiz-fusion here
[03:32] <erat123> it looks like wodim will work to burn my dvd's and cd's in bash.  thanks guys!!
[03:32] <imbecile> Senesence,  yes very.. alot of repeats
[03:32] <toki> anyone here have experience with ndiswrapper?
[03:33] <imbecile> thanks all :)
[03:33] <OmegaCenti> When I suspend, it kinda works, but when it comes back up my mouse will not move. Hibernation tries to hibernate, and it turns off the laptop, but when I try and boot, its just like I shutdown my computer. Need some help with being pointed in the right direction to fix this.
[03:33] <toki> Hey Music_Shuffle
[03:33] <Valerie> toki: i've had once, ndiswapper doesn't share internet, just usefull for recieving
[03:33] <pete> erat123: no prob
[03:33] <dchky> OmegaCenti: I think the whole suspend thing is still kinda buggy, has been for a long time.
[03:33] <Music_Shuffle> unrealsword, not I, are there repos up for it yet?
[03:33] <unrealsword> yea
[03:33] <unrealsword> it works great
[03:33] <unrealsword> except theres no borders
[03:33] <toki> yeah I'm trying to set up a wireless card - forums suggested using ndiswrapper and the windows driver
[03:33] <OmegaCenti> dchky: it worked for me in edgy.
[03:33] <_Codeman_> How do I get my wallet thing to come up in kubuntu?
[03:33] <Music_Shuffle> unrealsword, so...almost great :P
[03:34] <unrealsword> haha
[03:34] <toki> Valerie, I've got a router, just trying to get this linksys card recognized
[03:34] <asdqwezxcdsf> are you even receiving these messages?
[03:34] <Valerie> toki: you shouldn't have problems then
[03:34] <wabz> Joeb454: why should I have to install sun's jre manually? Why was the required gcj stuff that azureus depended on not actually sufficient?
[03:34] <Flashq009> valerie: I have an idea, maybe you can go into my ubuntu and take a look at proftpd.  msg me thanks
[03:34] <toki> Maybe I'm missing some libraries or something, I cant seem to get it compiled
[03:35] <asdqwezxcdsf> voi vittu saatana...
[03:35] <Joeb454> No idea, I've not tried installing azureus on ubuntu, I'm running in a VM because my PC doesn't want to let me install properly :(
[03:35] <wabz> (it looks to me like gcj will suffice, if it's actually installed properly, and that's what I want to get happening)
[03:35] <TheCougar> a .pl file can just be double clicked and it will run the install right?
[03:36] <_Codeman_> can anyone tell me how to bring up the kde wallet thing?
[03:37] <imbecile> what do you guys like better xfce of fluxbox?
[03:37] <Flashq009> Valerie: are you there?
[03:37] <imbecile> just looking for some opinions
[03:37] <Valerie> Flashq009: yeah, see your pvt
[03:37] <Flashq009> ok
[03:37] <doublemike> _Codeman_: run kcontrol and look under "Security and Privacy"
[03:37] <Nutubuntu> wabz, I've never run azureus, but I remember gij (?) wouldn't do for some other Java stuff I was trying to run, a couple of years back. Downloaded the JRE and never looked back. Why fight with the gij (or whatever it's named)?
[03:37] <pete> xfce
[03:37] <Music_Shuffle> imbecile, personally, XFCE more than Flux, but we try to discourage desktop war-type discussions in the support channel
[03:38] <TheCougar> does any one hae any experance installing vmware player 2.0 on ubuntu 7.04?
[03:38] <doublemike> imbecile: xfce
[03:38] <xpoint> nickrud, wish i know how to get the text out from synaptic
[03:38] <_Codeman_> thanks, doublemike
[03:38] <Valerie> Music_Shuffle: that's a good policy
[03:38] <imbecile> Music_Shuffle,  im just asking so i can install one of them
[03:38] <shwouchk> is there a program like 'nopaste' in ubuntu?
[03:38] <asdqwezxcdsf> DO YOU GET MY MESSAGES?
[03:38] <toki> TheCougar, I use wine
[03:38] <Anthology_> is there a good virus scanner available for scanning windows harddrives from ubuntu?
[03:38] <Music_Shuffle> asdqwezxcdsf, who gets what?  We see you typing, yes.
[03:38] <nickrud> xpoint, try opening the file with nano, and cutting and pasting from that
[03:39] <shwouchk> Anthology_: clam av
[03:39] <Anthology_> thanks
[03:39] <pete> asdqwezxcdsf: loud and clear
[03:39] <asdqwezxcdsf> finally
[03:39] <Music_Shuffle> imbecile, flux isn't very large, you could install both.  XFCE is a lot like Gnome, Flux isn't.
[03:39] <shwouchk> heh
[03:39] <Music_Shuffle> asdqwezxcdsf, sorry, we weren't sure if you meant someone specific or not :P
[03:39] <xpoint> nickrud, i just did :(
[03:39] <asdqwezxcdsf> im losing my mind with this...
[03:39] <santims> can Ubuntu read an HSF+ formattted HD?
[03:39] <shwouchk> is there a program that pastes to rafb or some other site the contents of a file of of a pipe in ubuntu?
[03:39] <imbecile> Music_Shuffle,  ill do that... hehe i will have 4 desktop environments on here
[03:39] <xpoint> nickrud, i did as i writed in paste
[03:40] <Valerie> santims: man mount
[03:40] <Music_Shuffle> imbecile, I have all 4 too, choice is nice :)
[03:40] <Joeb454> !ntfs
[03:40] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[03:40] <Music_Shuffle> asdqwezxcdsf, what b0rked?
[03:40] <toki> asdqwezxcdsf, what is the deal!
[03:40] <shwouchk> anyone?
[03:40] <Joeb454> !ntfs-3g
[03:40] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[03:40] <nickrud> xpoint, if you have synaptic, you have gedit. Open it with that and cut & paste
[03:40] <TheCougar> does ubuntu have a c compiler installed by default?
[03:40] <santims> Valerie:  hows does one do that?
[03:40] <xpoint> nickrud, there is just not all cached from console output :(
[03:40] <Nutubuntu> Is there an issue with Java and the Athlon 64 X2 cpu?
[03:40] <toki> TheCougar, it should have gcc?
[03:41] <Music_Shuffle> shwouchk, patience never killed anyone :P
[03:41] <Valerie> open a shell and type man mount
[03:41] <Senesence> I don't know if anyone here remembers me, but I dropped in here a day or so ago under the alias: "Student".
[03:41] <imbecile> Joeb454,  do you have feisty?
[03:41] <TheCougar> toki: ok
[03:41] <asdqwezxcdsf> sound problem: sound is working well but some games like lxDoom or games under wine the sound is not working
[03:41] <Valerie> see if says about hfs+
[03:41] <toki> Feisty Fawn does anyway
[03:41] <Music_Shuffle> Senesence, I remember you being here, not your issue though, sorry :(
[03:41] <santims> oh thats it?
[03:41] <shwouchk> Music_Shuffle: but time did
[03:41] <nickrud> xpoint, try running it in gnome-terminal, maybe it has a bigger scrollback buffer
[03:41] <TheCougar> 7.04 is what i'm using. vmware install is asking me:)
[03:41] <shwouchk> Music_Shuffle: :P
[03:41] <TheCougar> i figured out how to isntall it
[03:41] <Music_Shuffle> Maybe :P
[03:41] <Senesence> Music_Shuffle: Hey if I can bother you to listen to it again - would you?
[03:41] <toki> TheCougar, oh ok :)

[03:44] <leeyee> Hello everybody. I have a question about colorful shell prompt under Feisty
[03:44] <shwouchk> is there a program that pastes to rafb or some other site the contents of a file of of a pipe in ubuntu?
[03:44] <leeyee> Cound anyone help me?
[03:44] <asdqwezxcdsf> i got the same problem before
[03:44] <shwouchk> such as nopaste
[03:44] <asdqwezxcdsf> had*
[03:44] <Music_Shuffle> !ask | leeyee
[03:44] <ubotu> leeyee: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:44] <asdqwezxcdsf> i used this "sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2debian-all" and the sound worked
[03:44] <asdqwezxcdsf> after a reboot nothing worked
[03:44] <leeyee> Okay. I import my former .bashrc file from Edgy into Feisty
[03:44] <Music_Shuffle> asdqwezxcdsf, did you..remove it?
[03:44] <asdqwezxcdsf> i tried installing that again but it was no use
[03:44] <asdqwezxcdsf> yes
[03:44] <Music_Shuffle> and purged it?
[03:45] <asdqwezxcdsf> that libsdl got the sound working
[03:45] <leeyee> but the colorful shell prompt worked into wrong when i entered Chinese-named folder
[03:45] <asdqwezxcdsf> but after a reboot it stopped working
[03:45] <keithhhhh> what graphical interface comes with ubuntu studio?
[03:45] <Joeb454> !sleep

[03:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sleep - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:45] <asdqwezxcdsf> suddenly the sound worked again
[03:45] <asdqwezxcdsf> in those programs
[03:45] <_peerless> why when i install ubuntu it said it could not install grub or lilo, is there anyway I can boot into it without grub or lilo? or anyone know why it happened?

[03:46] <unrealsword> is there a way to have compiz-fusion boot from the login
[03:46] <Music_Shuffle> keithhhhh, http://ubuntustudio.org/screenshots
[03:46] <Music_Shuffle> keithhhhh, appears to be a modified GDM
[03:46] <asdqwezxcdsf> now i got no idea how to get it working again
[03:46] <cycom> _peerless: the liveCD should have an option to 'boot into first hard drive' or something
[03:46] <Music_Shuffle> unrealsword, the same way as Beryl perhaps?
[03:46] <nickrud> xpoint, that's good, a sec
[03:46] <cycom> _peerless: failing that, you can chroot into your system and try to fix it that way.
[03:46] <_peerless> i dont have a live cd, because im instaling from USB
[03:46] <unrealsword> Musc: im new at this, no idea how
[03:46] <unrealsword> i do know that compiz --replace activates it
[03:46] <unrealsword> but thats it
[03:46] <Music_Shuffle> unrealsword, one sec
[03:46] <cycom> _peerless: USB?
[03:46] <imbecile> unrealsword,  copiz fusion is released?
[03:46] <_peerless> yes cycom
[03:46] <unrealsword> yea
[03:46] <_peerless> using syslinux
[03:46] <_peerless> and the ubuntu iso
[03:46] <leeyee> I would like to know if Ubuntu has changed something on shell prompt configuration in Feisty? My original work under Edge seems wrong under Feisty
[03:46] <unrealsword> im using it
[03:46] <unrealsword> it works great
[03:46] <Valerie> Flashq009: still there?
[03:46] <cycom> _peerless: well, liveUSB then.
[03:47] <unrealsword> except it doesnt boot from login
[03:47] <_peerless> ok, ill try that then
[03:47] <unrealsword> i gotta active it wit that command each time
[03:47] <cycom> _peerless: the option should still be there.
[03:47] <HeloDown> !wtf
[03:47] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[03:47] <cycom> _peerless: failing that, try chroot.
[03:47] <_peerless> is liveUSB something i can find on the ubuntu site?
[03:47] <nickrud> xpoint, ok, now post the file /var/lib/dpkg/info/configlet-frontends.prerm for me
[03:47] <_peerless> whats chroot
[03:47] <Music_Shuffle> unrealsword, I just have 'beryl-manager' added under System - Preferences - Sessions -Startup program, and it autostarts on login.
[03:47] <imbecile> unrealsword,  u cant add it to sessions?
[03:47] <santims> Valerie:  thanks for the help, funny part is that i plugged in the drive and it just mounted itself.....didnt do that last time!

[03:54] <nickrud> HeloDown, in a terminal, type lspci
[03:54] <Music_Shuffle> unrealsword, \o

[03:54] <unrealsword> Music_Shuffle: what depth do you use?
[03:54] <unrealsword> haha
[03:54] <ooda> i would like to start the know shuffle
[03:54] <Joeb454> unrealsword, yes, but under a vm (so ubuntu doesn't know, it's the only way i can install it, b/c my pc sucks:-P)
[03:54] <_peerless> senesence, i know
[03:54] <nickrud> HeloDown, oh, you're talking about the xserver reconfiguring: just hit enter there
[03:54] <_peerless> ive already partially installed

[03:57] <PanzerMKZ> I got a HP visualize x series workstation. I have replaced the old FX6 vid card with a gf5200. but I install ubuntu and it will install fine but just hardlock on me

[03:57] <Hock> I have a motherboard with on board Highpoint Tech RAID (HPT372). I tried installing automatically (prompted or whatever it's called) but it didn't end up using the raid - it just installed to the disc. How can I load appropriate HPT372 drivers before the install?
[03:57] <ahorner> why cant i open a file.i386.rpm?
[03:58] <Music_Shuffle> ooda, make sure all the boxes are checked in that first tab
[03:58] <Joeb454> !rpm | ahorner
[03:58] <ubotu> ahorner: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[03:58] <xpoint> line 20 should have exit 0 ?
[03:58] <jonathan__> hola a todos
[03:58] <jrib> ahorner: what are you trying to install?  ubuntu uses .deb for ubuntu, not .rpm
[03:58] <ahorner> they always used rpm before..
[03:58] <jonathan__> espero me puedan ayudar
[03:58] <Music_Shuffle> ooda, then click ok, and on the main synaptic screen, click Search

[03:58] <ahorner> sudo apt-get install alien?
[03:58] <jrib> ahorner: what is "vm"
[03:59] <ahorner> virtual machine
[03:59] <ooda> Checking them now
[03:59] <Music_Shuffle> ahorner, just pay attention to the part of that factoid that emphasizes 'it's quite dangerous'
[03:59] <alecw1> I just installed Fireworks 8 within Wine, and I would like to put a shortcut to the application on my desktop. How might I accomplish this? For some reason, it's not in my Wine folder (in the "start" menu). I have to navigate through Wine to the folder where it was installed, and I can launch it through there. But that's really tedious...
[03:59] <jrib> ahorner: vmware-player is in the repositories
[03:59] <jonathan__> ok gracias
[03:59] <lo4fer> dang. dual display is behaving like a retarded foster kid
[03:59] <jrib> !software > ahorner (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:59] <ahorner> oh.
[03:59] <ahorner> but ive alreayd gotit downloaded
[03:59] <nickrud> xpoint, line 3.
[03:59] <ahorner> and i dont want to do it again
[03:59] <jrib> ahorner: you have the wrong thing downloaded
[04:00] <ahorner> mm
[04:00] <ahorner> *sigh8
[04:00] <Joeb454> ahorner: what're you trying to do?
[04:00] <ahorner> run a vm
[04:00] <HeloDown> nicrud, can you use sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to also add on a second monitor?
[04:00] <ahorner> but it ccame in a .rom
[04:00] <ahorner> rpm*
[04:00] <lo4fer> alecw1: create shortcut with the address of the program as the command.................
[04:00] <HeloDown> nickrud*
[04:00] <santims> Ubuntu is saying that i am not the owner on some information that is on my second hard drive....mainly my backup of all the pictures in my iPhoto folders.  Is there any way to say that i am the owner???
[04:00] <ahorner> santims: try sudo
[04:00] <ahorner> wai
[04:00] <nickrud> HeloDown, I don't believe so, but ask around some more
[04:00] <alecw1> lo4er, how would that look (as an example)?
[04:00] <alecw1> And the file is an .exe file
[04:00] <alecw1> :P
[04:01] <Music_Shuffle> !permissions | santims
[04:01] <ubotu> santims: The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[04:01] <ahorner> yay wne
[04:01] <ooda> Music_Shuffle, to be sure are you talking about all the packages?
[04:01] <Hock> I have a motherboard with on board Highpoint Tech RAID (HPT372). I tried installing automatically (prompted or whatever it's called) but it didn't end up using the raid - it just installed to the one hdd. How can I load appropriate HPT372 drivers before the install?
[04:01] <Joeb454> ahorner: looks like you will need alien to convert the file
[04:01] <nivekc1> can someone help me get my beryl working?
[04:01] <ahorner> im getting it
[04:01] <Music_Shuffle> ooda, no no, just in that one screen, check off Multiverse, Universe, etc.
[04:01] <lo4fer> alecw1: it would look like this: wine /home/me/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/yourprogram.exe
[04:02] <Music_Shuffle> ooda, do -not- check ALL the packages, your PC will hate you, and so will your ISP.
[04:02] <ahorner> wdf
[04:02] <ooda> Music_Shuffle, when i click settings there is a drop down menu
[04:02] <Music_Shuffle> ooda, right.  Select repositories
[04:02] <alecw1> Ok, lo4er
[04:02] <alecw1> Thanks, I'll try it.
[04:02] <ahorner> it says i have the wrong admin password
[04:02] <defrysk> santims, sudo chown <yourusername> -h -R /path/to your/folder
[04:02] <alecw1> Can I PM you if it doesn't?
[04:02] <HeloDown> Thanks nick, santims you made need to do this
[04:02] <HeloDown> 1 Open Terminal from Applications.
[04:02] <HeloDown> 2 type in sudo  gedit /path/to/file/
[04:02] <HeloDown> This should open up the folder for viewing.
[04:02] <ahorner> mabe because its upodating to 7.04 right now
[04:02] <HeloDown> wait what does chown do?
[04:02] <swooney> hi everyone, i have two "assignable" buttons on my laptop and i would like to make one play/pause rhythmbox, can anyone give me a push in the right direction?
[04:02] <Joeb454> ahorner: is it vmware player that your after?
[04:02] <defrysk> HeloDown, change ownership
[04:03] <vulcanSZ> Hey everyone. :)
[04:03] <ahorner> yes
[04:03] <Music_Shuffle> Hi vulcanSZ :)
[04:03] <DaFreak> Hello folks. I have ventrilo working via wine (believe me I would prefer using TS, but my friends prefer ventrilo) but I can't seem to get ventriloctrl to work anybody have experience with this script?
[04:03] <Joeb454> try this http://www.vmware.com/download/player/open_source.html
[04:03] <HeloDown> ahh so it would move it to be viewable by everyone?
[04:03] <ahorner> but i cant install anything right now cause its in the process of updating to 7.04
[04:03] <Music_Shuffle> ahorner, one thing at a time perhaps?
[04:03] <ahorner> its already downloaded in rpm ill just convert in alien
[04:03] <Joeb454> well ok I understand that, but thats not an RPM file it's a TAR file
[04:03] <nivekc1> when i go to the beryl manager and change my window manager to beryl it flashes then defaults right back to metacity, i think this mean its crashing could it be from my video card driver it is in the restricted driver menu
[04:03] <ahorner> and if that doesnt work il download
[04:04] <lo4fer> alecw1: I assume you understand you have to change that to reflect your username and any additional subdirectories under which you may have installed the program within wine.
[04:04] <defrysk> HeloDown, no to <the username>
[04:04] <ahorner> nivekc1: i have the same problem
[04:04] <alecw1> yes
[04:04] <_peerless> when installing ubuntu from alternate iso, any idea what would cause this error "no kernel modules were found.  this probably is due to a mismatch between the kernel used by this version of the installer and the kernel version available in the archive"
[04:04] <lo4fer> good stuff
[04:04] <Music_Shuffle> nivekc1, is it an Nvidia card?
[04:04] <nivekc1> ati
[04:04] <ahorner> ya
[04:04] <nivekc1> x1300
[04:04] <ooda> Music_Shuffle, i was unchecking what i slected, ok i selected repositories
[04:04] <ahorner> x200
[04:04] <ahorner> xpress 200
[04:04] <Music_Shuffle> ooda, which boxes are checked?
[04:04] <ahorner> brb
[04:05] <ooda> Music_Shuffle, Under Ubuntu Software...
[04:05] <HeloDown> hmm nickrud After I finish reconfiguring I set it to the 1280 x .... however it does not show up when I attempt to change the screen resolution through the desktop
[04:05] <lo4fer> alecw1: maybe it's worth mentioning that /.wine is a hidden directory, hence the "period" prefixing it. and that's all i've got. good luck!
[04:05] <jabickett52> I'm looking for some scanning software, any suggestions?
[04:05] <jabickett52> for a brother flatbed scanner
[04:05] <nivekc1> anyone have any ideas
[04:05] <onexused> Cause I'm dumb : ) I want my grub to have a pretty picture when I boot.  Can I put the "splashimage=" command into menu.lst like I can on other distros that use grub.conf instead?
[04:05] <anandanbu> Hi ! i have installed mysql in ubuntu 7.04 but how do i create a new user or connect using mysql-query-browser
[04:05] <alecw1> ok, thanks!
[04:05] <ooda> Music_Shuffle, comunity, Propritary, Software Restricted, and Source code
[04:05] <Music_Shuffle> ooda, fabulous, hit ok, and go back to the main synaptic screen
[04:05] <Music_Shuffle> ooda, see the button labelled search?
[04:06] <Tr1p> **** someone got a good ROUTER server ? like ipmasq ( i need it for ubuntu server 7.04 )
[04:06] <nickrud> HeloDown, did you make sure you put in the correct refresh & sync rates for your monitor? Thats the critical part
[04:06] <ooda> Music_Shuffle, Yes
[04:06] <jabickett52> !scanner
[04:06] <ubotu> Scanning software: XSane, the gimp, Kooka. For instructions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ScanningHowTo and to see supported hardware: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsScanners
[04:06] <nickrud> Tr1p, why not ipmasq?
[04:06] <Music_Shuffle> ooda, click it, and search for 'Beryl'
[04:06] <santims> how does terminal deal with spaces when getting to the location?
[04:06] <HeloDown> No I am not. I don't exactly know the numbers neither
[04:06] <Music_Shuffle> And then...enjoy :)
[04:06] <nivekc1> ahorner: how much have you dug up so far?
[04:06] <nickrud> HeloDown, hunt them down. You need them
[04:06] <HeloDown> hehe that's the problem
[04:06] <ooda> Music_Shuffle, cool i see Beryl-Plugins
[04:07] <Music_Shuffle> ooda, you can use Synaptic to find packages for...almost everything.  Enjoy! :)
[04:07] <Tr1p> nickrud, it doesent works here :(
[04:07] <HeloDown> monitors were picked up for free :)
[04:07] <neozen> meep@
[04:07] <dan40> can someone help me with the proper syntax to mount a windows shared folder via the fstab?
[04:07] <nickrud> Tr1p, oh. A first for me then
[04:07] <ooda> Music_Shuffle, Wow.. Linux is the best. Thanks alot!!!
[04:07] <Music_Shuffle> ooda, anytime.  Best of luck.
[04:07] <defrysk> santims, use the <tab> button for partial auto completion
[04:07] <Senesence> Music_Shuffle: Synaptic packages are at least a version behind.
[04:07] <Joeb454> wow, don't try and enable Feisty's desktop effects in a VM
[04:07] <DaFreak> Anybody familiar with the ventriloctrl script? Its used to capture keystrokes and pass them on to ventrilo even if its out of focus
[04:07] <santims> defrysk: thanks
[04:07] <nickrud> HeloDown, search the net with some numbers on the back, I've usually been able to find even off brand models
[04:08] <Music_Shuffle> Senesence, he's new to Ubuntu.  Its the best introduction for sure.
[04:08] <Joeb454> !Windows
[04:08] <nivekc1> music_shuffle: any idea why ahorner and i are having problems with beryl and our ati cards?
[04:08] <ubotu> For help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and !equivalents
[04:08] <Music_Shuffle> He can figure the rest out when he wants to.
[04:08] <neozen> lol....no ... don't try to enable ANY visually intensive stuff in a vm
[04:08] <Joeb454> lol
[04:08] <Senesence> True
[04:08] <anandanbu> Help needed in configuring the mysql in Ubuntu 7.04
[04:08] <Music_Shuffle> nivekc1, because ATI and Beryl haven't...as far as I know, ever gotten along maybe.  Lotsa batling required.  :(
[04:08] <Music_Shuffle> battling**
[04:09] <nivekc1> that sucks
[04:09] <ahorner> nicekc1: i think it's because i need a new driver
[04:09] <neozen> slower night tonight
[04:09] <voidmage> How can you restore the default gnome menu settings?
[04:09] <Music_Shuffle> neozen, isn't it?  I thought it was just me.
[04:09] <nivekc1> thats what i was thinking to but i updated it as far as it told me i think
[04:09] <Tr1p> nickrud, http://home.vanerom.be/online/ipmasq
[04:09] <santims> HeloDown:  doing that brought up a window saying /location/ is a directory make sure you entered the locataion correctly and try again
[04:09] <Music_Shuffle> nivekc1, you can make it work, it'll just take either googling, or finding someone in here with more GFX knowledge than I.  :D
[04:10] <ahorner> Music_Shuffle: but what about XGL
[04:10] <Music_Shuffle> ahorner, never used it myself, so I can't help.
[04:10] <nivekc1> lol i went to the ubuntu-effects room there i snever anyone in there
[04:10] <ahorner> well its to what i understand, the compatibility for ati cards

[04:11] <bruenig|laptop> how do  you remove stuff from the right click menu. Like if I right click a video file, it has open with mplayer as one of the options, how do I remove that
[04:11] <Music_Shuffle> Better ;)
[04:11] <ahorner> already ther
[04:11] <SlimG2> Anyone know what font is beeing used for the "ubuntu" string top-left at http://ubuntu.com ?
[04:11] <nivekc1> yea no one is ever there and if they are they are jsut asking no answers in htere
[04:11] <Tr1p> nickrud, was something about a bad config , but im sure it aint bad at all
[04:11] <neozen> bruenig|laptop: perhaps better to apply its assocation to another application
[04:12] <neozen> bruenig|laptop: that would just open it with that other application
[04:12] <uberushaximus> !ttf-ubuntu-title  | SlimG2
[04:12] <ahorner> SlimG2: looks rounded :-p
[04:12] <uberushaximus> !ttf-ubuntu-title | SlimG2
[04:12] <Viden> I am having an issue resizing the root partition.  I have already cleared a 40Gb chunk of space before the root partition, but even booting from a live cd I cannot rezise root into that free space.
[04:12] <ahorner> !ttf-ubuntu-title
[04:12] <neozen> bruenig|laptop: right click, choose properties, and change the open-with dropdown box
[04:12] <bruenig|laptop> neozen, yes I have, but I don't want that right click thing there, my situation is that I open these files with different applications, the right click menu has like 3 open with mplayer things. Two of which don't work
[04:12] <Music_Shuffle> Viden, ...is it bigger than 40 Gb?
[04:12] <neozen> bruenig|laptop: ahhhh
[04:12] <nickrud> Tr1p, what are you using for dhcp? I usually used dnsmasq with ipmasq
[04:13] <Viden> the free space .. or in total ?
[04:13] <neozen> bruenig|laptop: to be honest.. .I don't know
[04:13] <Music_Shuffle> Viden, is the root partition > than the space you've created for it**
[04:13] <bruenig|laptop> this is why I hate graphical stuff
[04:13] <SlimG2> uberushaximus: thank you! I'll have a look at it
[04:13] <nickrud> Tr1p, let me rephrase that, I used ipmasq & dnsmasq together the one time I used them :)
[04:13] <neozen> bruenig|laptop: never had the occasion to need to remove them
[04:13] <mister_roboto> Viden: move it down first and resize upward?
[04:13] <Music_Shuffle> bruenig|laptop, I have no idea, but if you find out, it'd be a great factoid/tidbit to pass on :D
[04:13] <xpoint> nickrud, this fixed it, thanks
[04:13] <nickrud> xpoint, great.
[04:14] <Viden> no ... the current root is 21gb  and i want to resize it to enclude a 38gb free space on my disk .. making it around 55gb
[04:14] <neozen> bruenig|laptop: probably poking some incantations in some text file somewhere
[04:14] <xpoint> nickrud, just want to have clvm out now
[04:14] <neozen> bruenig|laptop: its the linux way......
[04:14] <bruenig|laptop> neozen, well generally they go away when you remove applications. The problem is that there is mplayer and then there is gnome-mplayer, but in the graphical thing they both show up as mplayer. I have removed gnome-mplayer but I guess it still sees mplayer is there and keeps it
[04:14] <defrysk> bruenig|laptop, dont hate grafical stuff, its not a good incentive to learn how to use it ;)
[04:14] <vulcanSZ> ...I have just experienced Beryl for the first time.
[04:14] <Tr1p> nickrud, and how many pc's are connecten on your router ? becouse i need to connect alot of pc's and servers on it
[04:14] <colbert> Is there any way to change the color of the text cursor? I have my gtk theme background set to black and in gedit when I'm typing I can't see the cursor
[04:14] <Tr1p> but i need to remote is from the outside
[04:15] <nickrud> Tr1p, the one time I did, there were 3 clients
[04:15] <Xenguy> vulcanSZ: what's the verdict? :-)
[04:15] <mister_roboto> vulcanSZ: did u have to change ur underwear>
[04:15] <nickrud> and no coming in from outside
[04:15] <bruenig|laptop> I grepped recursively for gnome-mplayer on /, but after about 10 minutes I just stopped it
[04:15] <vulcanSZ> I love it.
[04:15] <Xenguy> vulcanSZ: cool
[04:15] <Tr1p> nickrud, are u alot online ? i,m gonne try
[04:16] <nickrud> Tr1p, for about another 40 minutes, then it's time to head home.
[04:16] <Tr1p> oh
[04:16] <santims> thanks folks!
[04:17] <nickrud> Tr1p, but there're some wiser heads around right now, so keep talking. They'll jump in
[04:17] <HeloDown> nickrud, I can't find info about either of my monitors online
[04:17] <Tr1p> nickrud, but its working whit u so its perfect he ;)
[04:17] <xpoint> nickrud, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26838/
[04:17] <Viden> mister_roboto:  I cant move the partition into the free space either ...
[04:17] <Tr1p> is it also with a DHCP server ?
[04:17] <HeloDown> Utobia is in a foreign language and google drawing blanks on AMAX
[04:17] <Sambob> ello
[04:18] <Music_Shuffle> hi :)
[04:18] <bruenig|laptop> oh man, the gnome-mplayer one is gone, but it has a launcher for mplayer and gmplayer and gmplayer is a symlink to mplayer
[04:18] <alecw1> For some reason, when I resize windows on my Beryl system (using nvidia), the whole window turns black. I've heard it's a memory issue, but can someone expand on this/help?
[04:18] <Sambob> how is everyone :)
[04:18] <Lekrem> good
[04:18] <BaD_CrC> *yawn*
[04:18] <Music_Shuffle> Great, yourself?
[04:18] <mister_roboto> Viden: it's not mounted, right? when booting from live cd?
[04:18] <BaD_CrC> hey people
[04:18] <Sambob> tired as usual
[04:18] <Viden> correct .. i unmount it before starting gparted
[04:18] <Lekrem> hey BaD_CrC
[04:18] <Tremitos> sup?
[04:18] <Joeb454> Sambob: would that be because its 3.20am
[04:19] <mrynit> i need a way to look at a harddrive and find out what part of it is bad so i can make my partions around the bad sectors so the harddrive will work as good as new
[04:19] <Viden> alecw1:  change beryl to use AIGLX and it will fix that
[04:19] <alecw1> Viden, how do I do this?
[04:19] <Tremitos> unsure
[04:19] <mister_roboto> Viden: i don't know why it's not working but for grins, if you're desperate, try the live gtparted cd
[04:19] <unrealsword> great changing depth makes compiz-fusion fail
[04:19] <Sambob> well yes joeb454 seing as you are just down the hall from me fool
[04:19] <Viden> alecw1:  beryl-manager, under rendering options
[04:19] <ooda> i got beryl installed and i would like to enable the snow
[04:19] <mister_roboto> Viden: boots right into gtparted
[04:19] <nickrud> xpoint, you can show me /var/lib/dpkg/info/clvm.prerm , but I have a feeling that clustering daemons are way over my head. I'll look, though
[04:19] <BaD_CrC> has anyone got the M$ VX-6000 webcam to work? I've seen lots of hit-n-miss blurbs about it, but nothing useful to me. lsusb -v doesn't give me any useful info.
[04:19] <Viden> mister_roboto:  ok i will have to find it .. thanks
[04:20] <Tr1p> ooda, beryl works fine here :)
[04:20] <ooda> it's not in extras
[04:20] <Viden> mister_roboto:  if that doesnt work ill just get partition magic and say screw it
[04:20] <|DarkED_|> anybody tried wubi yet?
[04:20] <oipat> I've added a new partition with fdisk. How can I, somehow reload the new device (/dev/sda4) without rebooting? Impossible ?
[04:20] <ooda> and the shortcut <spac> + F3 doesn't work
[04:20] <alecw1> Viden, is that it? problem fixed?
[04:20] <mister_roboto> Viden: :)   the live cd for parted has never failed me
[04:20] <ooda> and i installed all the beryl packages using Syanptic
[04:20] <kdiggdy> is there a limewire version for amd86_84?

[04:22] <OmegaCenti> Could this be causing me to not have hibernate support? Jun 22 04:07:26 ZeNotePad kernel: [16723.324000]  PM: suspend-to-disk mode set to 'shutdown'
[04:22] <emet> what can I use to rip DVDs in Linux
[04:22] <oipat> defrysk: Nope
[04:23] <ooda> Music_Shuffle, do you have a direct link, when i click it, it doens't work
[04:23] <Xenguy> emet: dvdrip is quite good (DVD or AVI output)
[04:23] <defrysk> oipat, and you wish to mount the new deviace during boot ?
[04:23] <logan> How do I add a package site to my repository?
[04:23] <oipat> defrysk: I was wondering if it was possible.
[04:23] <Music_Shuffle> ooda, type /join #ubuntu-effects
[04:23] <defrysk> oipat, yes it is
[04:24] <ooda> Thanks...
[04:24] <Xenguy> emet: a little fussy to setup, but worth it
[04:24] <lo4fer> when running an x-window on two different monitors at the same time, you can't open firefox in one and then run firefox in the other? you have to open a new window and drag it over?
[04:24] <nickrud> logan, cd /etc/apt && cp sources.list sources.list.before_I_messed_around && gksudo gedit sources.list
[04:24] <Music_Shuffle> nickrud, I like the backup name ;)
[04:25] <Xenguy> emet: (you'll need something called 'libdvdcss2' also, likely)
[04:25] <jay1> are there any apps out there to connect me to db's
[04:25] <nickrud> Music_Shuffle, :)
[04:25] <jay1> a gui basically for db manipulation
[04:25] <emet> Xenguy, thank you

[04:26] <Xenguy> emet: for backing up to ISO, see 'k9copy'
[04:26] <nickrud> logan, er, I forgot to add the sudo between && and cd above
[04:26] <Soth> jay1: phpmyadmin works nicely but that'll require php/apache as well
[04:27] <mrynit> badblocks is not doing anything
[04:27] <Music_Shuffle> mrynit, it has arguments, what'd you enter in?
[04:27] <mrynit> /dev/sda1
[04:27] <Soth> jay1: but it's not nearly as advanced as the app you linked to
[04:28] <nickrud> jay1, for mysql there's mysql-admin and mysql-query-browser
[04:28] <HeloDown> I still can't find anything on the monitor, Amax doesn't bring up it's model number (it's about 5 years old) Google search does not help much
[04:29] <jay1> what about for oracle
[04:29] <Music_Shuffle> mrynit, right, but the other arguments?
[04:29] <mister_roboto> SQUirrel is as good as the free dbvis
[04:29] <mrynit> i really dont understand what the other arguemnets do or mean
[04:29] <JustinTArthur> Hey, do any of you know how to set up a computer to have password-less auto-login on boot-up?

[04:32] <OmegaCenti> Alright, yeah, hibernate/suspend needs to be pushed REALLY hard into the development circles...
[04:32] <mister_roboto> silvertip257: did u try google? google knows all!
[04:33] <OmegaCenti> I am trying everything I possible know on how to search for things that might work with hibernate/suspend, but I cannot find my way around all of the myriad of pages that tell me,"
[04:33] <alecw1> I just recently changed my Bery settings to force " AIGLX". This is fine, except when I go to my 3D cube, my videos stop playing, and my windows stop updating. Is there a way around this?
[04:33] <silvertip257> mister_roboto:  for weeks now ... not finding what I want .... I dont want uck or reconstructor
[04:33] <OmegaCenti> yeah something is wrong with suspend/hibernate"
[04:33] <jmspeex> Anyone can help get my DSL connection working with Feisty (typing this from Windows)?
[04:34] <lashmoove> is it enabled ?
[04:34] <CorpseFeeder> still working on getting network boot to work... I've been trying to follow this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot - I've reached the point where it says to " Enable the tftpd server. Add the following as /etc/xinet.d/tftp." - I do not know how to Enable the tftpd server.
[04:34] <mister_roboto> silvertip257: i dont know ur answer but i'm curious why u say no to those
[04:34] <jmspeex> That provider seems to be using plain DHCP over the DSL connection, but for some reason Ubuntu fails to obtain an IP address...
[04:34] <lashmoove> jmspeex: is the ethernet connection enabled?
[04:35] <hagabaka> why doesn't ubuntu package any sound fonts?
[04:35] <silvertip257> mister_roboto:  b/c they involve cli even though they have some gui parts, so I just wanna do it all the "hard way", plus they are only for ubuntu ... I want something that works for ALL and any types
[04:35] <jmspeex> lashmoove: Well, it's selected from the network manaager and I see it with ifconfig
[04:35] <arooni> what kind of graphics card do i need if i want to have dual monitor support?
[04:35] <arooni> or do i need two graphics cards
[04:35] <LCCUB> what is the terminal command for move, I know cp is copy
[04:35] <lashmoove> mv=move
[04:35] <nickrud> LCCUB, mv
[04:35] <arooni> i have one geforce ti 4200 that has an analog and a digitial output
[04:35] <LCCUB> thanks :)
[04:35] <jmspeex> doing ifup eth0, I see it's try to get an address but never succeeds
[04:36] <mister_roboto> silvertip257: ok. u wanna make sure u can script it?
[04:36] <silvertip257> arooni:  i've read you can have a dual-ported gfx card or two gfx cards .. eithr
[04:36] <arooni> silvertip257: does ubuntu support digital out?
[04:36] <arooni> and does it look better?
[04:36] <lashmoove> jmspec: could it be ath0
[04:36] <HeloDown> nickrud, are you sure there is not another way around the resolution settings? I can't find anything about either monitor
[04:36] <silvertip257> mister_roboto:  I want something that works for any type ... slackware, redhat, debian/ubuntu, etc ... the general process
[04:37] <silvertip257> arooni:  yes I would not see why not
[04:37] <emet> wow I am impressed how braindead it is to transfer music to an ipod on ubuntu
[04:37] <jmspeex> lashmoove: what's ath0?
[04:37] <emet> it's easier then iTUNES!
[04:37] <emet> !!
[04:37] <silvertip257> arooni:  there are plenty w/ digital video here ; ) just not me =)
[04:37] <calc> jmspeex: sounds like a modem code
[04:37] <Hock> I have a motherboard with on board Highpoint Tech RAID (HPT372). I tried installing automatically (prompted or whatever it's called) but it didn't end up using the raid - it just installed to the disc. How can I load appropriate HPT372 drivers before the install?
[04:37] <jmspeex> lashmoove: ifconfig only lists eth0 and eth1, the latter being the wireless
[04:37] <arooni> silvertip257: do u know if its hard to setup?
[04:37] <nickrud> HeloDown, you can try faking some numbers, but that's supposed to be physically hazardous to the monitors.
[04:37] <silvertip257> arooni:  there is some hand coding in xorg to get dual monitors
[04:38] <silvertip257> but it's not bad ... plenty of writeups on it arooni
[04:38] <lashmoove> what kernal ?
[04:38] <jmspeex> lashmoove: 2.6.20
[04:38] <silvertip257> emet:  do you have hfs+ support for your ipod?
[04:38] <HeloDown> what if I edited xorg.conf through gedit?
[04:38] <jmspeex> calc: why modem (this is a DSL connection)?
[04:39] <silvertip257> HeloDown that works too, but you'd have to do sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf (hope the path is right)
[04:39] <nickrud> HeloDown, that's fine. You can play with the numbers, but it'll be hit or miss
[04:39] <HeloDown> yes I have it open :)
[04:39] <silvertip257> ah
[04:39] <HeloDown> But I am not sure what I need to edit exactly
[04:39] <warlock_handler> guys any channel ... u can suggest for ruby on rails...
[04:39] <arooni> silvertip257: so i have one dual port graphics card, but one port is analgo the other digital.... what do you suggest i do?
[04:39] <calc> jmspeex: may be something else, probably is
[04:39] <HeloDown> I'll post it on the paste.ubu deal
[04:39] <silvertip257> HeloDown:  you probably need monitor specs man to get it right
[04:39] <CorpseFeeder> what does this mean - " Enable the tftpd server. Add the following as /etc/xinet.d/tftp." - e.g. what am I supposed to type? Do I need to create a file called tftp. in /etc/xinet.d/? I'm stuck here...
[04:40] <HeloDown> I can't find monitor specs, that's the problem.
[04:40] <mister_roboto> warlock_handler: #ruby?
[04:40] <gpled> whats the command to repair a broken x

[04:40] <arooni> i just have one ge force ti 4200
[04:40] <silvertip257> arooni:  I would hook one up to analog & the other to the digital
[04:40] <ivanAlvarez> my mouse got inverted, and i dont know why, can someone help me?
[04:41] <silvertip257> arooni:  what type of card / manufacturer?
[04:41] <mister_roboto> warlock_handler: rails is just a ruby framework. the ruby guys might be fine for your questions
[04:41] <arooni> silvertip257: ge force ti 4200

[04:43] <nickrud> HeloDown, yup, you have a refresh & sync. Now find the right ones :) (don't wanna sound flippant, but that's what you have to do)
[04:43] <phpcurious> warlock_handler: yeah
[04:43] <phpcurious> warlock_handler: i remember i told you about flickr api ? right?
[04:43] <silvertip257> HeloDown:  what's wrong w/ the res again?
 ya ya... :D
[04:44] <matthew1429> I'm connecting my windows computer to an ubuntu server for vnc (i typed vncserver in console)... why do clients not ask for user name and just password?

[04:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bittorrent - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:44] <HeloDown> Both monitors from mid 1990s, silvertip, I'm trying to get my monitor set to 1280x1024 and it's set at 1024x768
[04:44] <emet> whats a good bit torrent client for gtk+
[04:44] <phpcurious> warlock_handler: if you have questions about ruby on rails, you might want to ask some guys in that channel
[04:45] <blackatron> use utorrent if u have wine :)
[04:45] <ahorner> im back guys
[04:45] <arooni> where can i gbet a bittorrent download of 7.04
[04:45] <silvertip257> ah ok HeloDown ... but those may not support 1280x1024 is that right?
[04:45] <ahorner> i got my resolution fixed and am upgraded to 7.04
 ya i am there too... but i guess no ones active...
[04:45] <emet> blackatron, gtk+ :)
[04:45] <HeloDown> it was supported on XP
[04:45] <phpcurious> warlock_handler: in what OS did you install Ruby on Rails?
[04:45] <phpcurious> warlock_handler: in windows  or in linux?
[04:45] <HeloDown> if worse comes to worse, I'll just decrease the size of the fonts
[04:45] <matthew1429> does anyone use vnc regularly?
[04:45] <TaJMoX> blackatron what's the big deal with utorrent?   what's it's main feature that makes it so popular?
[04:45] <Pici> matthew1429: I do.
[04:46] <mister_roboto> matthew1429: i do on windows
[04:46] <Xenguy> emet: if you like closed-source, windows only software, try utorrent via wine; if you prefer open source (but in this case unfortunately bloated and java) apps, try Azureus :-)
[04:46] <matthew1429> why doesn't the client ask for a username?  I'm using vncserver through ubuntu and connecting from windows with tightvnc and have tried ultravnc to no avail
[04:47] <matthew1429> authentication is failing
[04:47] <silvertip257> HeloDown:  the gfx card supports wonderful resolutions, but I'm not sure about the monitors
[04:47] <TaJMoX> matthew1429 it uses whatever user is on the current display - you can set it up to use a password
[04:47] <mister_roboto> matthew1429: it has its own "security" and doesn't require a user login, just the password for vnc
[04:48] <Pici> matthew1429: VNC doesnt use a username, just a password.I think you need to use vncpasswd to setup a password
[04:48] <TaJMoX> matthew1429 : are you using the remote desktop gui thing in preferences?
 Linux obviously.. uBuntu it is
[04:48] <TaJMoX> ?
[04:48] <phpcurious> warlock_handler: i did it in windows XP but not yet in Ubuntu
[04:49] <silvertip257> HeloDown:  when you go into change your prefs - desktop res ... you can't see 1280 right?
[04:49] <phpcurious> warlock_handler: I had just installed VMWare + Ubuntu + Windows XP (sorry no beryl)
[04:49] <arooni> whats ad=df'

[04:51] <phpcurious> warlock_handler: that's great!
[04:51] <ahorner> kravlin: FOR GODS SAKE DONT PUT GRUB ON WINDOWS INSTILLATIONS
[04:52] <phpcurious> warlock_handler: you can probably do cube
[04:52] <arooni> ahorner: what should u do instad
[04:52] <jmspeex> arooni: ipw3945 works fine for me if you can tolerate the binary daemon. Otherwise, the cisco ones are good too
[04:52] <phpcurious> warlock_handler: be right back ( have something to do)
[04:52] <ahorner> kravlin: use vista boot manager
[04:52] <ahorner> well
[04:52] <bob_> What's the correct kernel for an amd sempron 3100?
[04:52] <ahorner> nvm
[04:52] <nrdb> Does Ubuntu support UBoot on a PPC computer ?
[04:52] <ahorner> i dont know
.. cool
[04:52] <kravlin> ahorner: I used grub to boot into windows once already but that was on a different HD that was slow and useless. Oh and i'm working with xp instead of vista.
[04:52] <ahorner> yea
[04:52] <ahorner> umm use boot.ini
[04:52] <jmspeex> Can anyone help getting a non-pppoe (as far as I can tell) DSL connection working?
[04:53] <mryni1> what is the ntfs version of e2fsck
[04:54] <bongo> hy!  how can i disable the boot-logo-screen of feisty, so i can see the screen-output ??
[04:54] <Pici> mryni1: fsck -t ntfs . I'm not sure if it would actually work though
[04:54] <arooni> jmspeex: dont know what that is
[04:54] <arooni> what do you mean?
[04:54] <blackatron> jmspeex, using dhcp ?
[04:54] <kravlin> ahorner: Its not like windows is the main system i'm using. its mainly for gaming. Better way of asking my question. Grub points to the beginning of the disk that i'm currently using. Is there a way to make it only point to the MBR?
[04:54] <silvertip257> arooni:  sorry for the wait ... couldnt remember where I found it last:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported?highlight=%28wireless%29%7C%28support%29
[04:54] <CorpseFeeder> I don't understand what to enter into /etc/xinet.d/tftp. for the IP address of the client machine. How do I know what the IP number is if DHCP hasn't assigned it one? If I try to boot the client machine in "PXE network boot" it just says "DHCP......." with the spinny cursor, then gives up and boots from the hard disk instead....
[04:54] <jmspeex> blackatron: yes. I thought doing "ifup eth0" would work but it doesn't
[04:55] <ahorner> kravlin: it will only write to the mbr.. shouldnt be any problem. if u need to go back to legacy, download vista boot pro, it will reinstall the mbr without touching the rest of ur hd
[04:55] <jmspeex> blackatron: my etcnetworkinterfaces has "iface eth0 inet dhcp"
[04:55] <matthew1429> i still get authentication failure after setting up vncpasswd
[04:55] <matthew1429> any ideas?
[04:55] <kravlin> ahorner: on top of that i don't think it would matter. I get it when trying to reboot into the second half of the windows install.
[04:56] <ahorner> kravlin: i dont understand
[04:56] <jmspeex> blackatron: my /etc/network/interfaces has "iface eth0 inet dhcp" (damn French keyboard)
[04:56] <bob_>  What's the correct kernel for an amd sempron 3100?
[04:56] <bongo> please help:  how can i disable the boot-logo-screen of feisty, so i can see the screen-output ??
[04:57] <kravlin> ahorner: I get a disk error when i try to install windows XP. When it's installing it reboots into the graphical part of the install. At that point i get a disk error instead of going into the graphical install.
[04:57] <dick-richardson> bongo: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:57] <dick-richardson> bongo: remove 'quiet splash' after the kernel listing
[04:57] <dick-richardson> and reboot
[04:58] <kravlin> ahorner: i Installed windows on another hard drive that was noizy and old (over 8 years old IDE) I repartitioned this disk and i have ubuntu running in the first partion.
[04:58] <kravlin> ahorner: I wanted to put windows in the third Physical Partition on this disk so i started the install process. I've done GRUB reinstalls about 4 times so its no big deal for me.
[04:59] <mike3_> I must say, I'm impressed with Ubuntu
[04:59] <kravlin> ahorner: but when it rebooted after copying the files without any config it gives me a disk error. When i reinstall grub Ubuntu works fine. Its driving me nuts because i don't want to reload Ubuntu.
[05:00] <mike3_> I got ubuntu installed, mytv up, lirc up, ivtv up, samba up, video addon, weather addon, vnc, autoload mythtv in 4 hours
[05:00] <figarogdl> hi would anyone please recommend me some simple and easy to use authoring dvd app for use in ubuntu?
[05:00] <kravlin> ahorner: My last resort is wiping out the entire disk and going from scratch but it have to backup everything and i don't know a good app for doing so.
[05:00] <dick-richardson> It's a great distro. Getting an rt2500 wifi card working with roaming is a pain, though
[05:00] <CorpseFeeder> Sod this network booting bullcrap. If I just take the hard disk out of the non-CD-rom-bootable turkey-brained machine and put it into a machine which is capable of booting from CD, then install Ubuntu onto the hard disk, and then return the hard disk to the original turkey-brained machine, would that work?... or would Ubuntu have a fit being shifted to a completely different machine?
 thank you - i will try it - which file is it for the shutdown-screen ?
[05:00] <mike3_> dick-richardson, I'm a gentoo user.. So the ease of setting this up was nice...
[05:00] <mike3_> so nice
[05:01] <dick-richardson> bongo: same one
[05:01] <mike3_> didn't have to deal with that crap. If i ever redo my desktop. I'm going that route. I don't give a flying sh** on compiling for speed. you don't really notice that big of a difference anyways
[05:01] <dick-richardson> mike3_: yeah, I came from debian...
[05:01] <kravlin> ahorner: I figure its a problem with the bootloader because for a while i had the bootloader point to the first partition and had grub installed there.
[05:01] <kravlin> ahorner: any ideas?
 & it is the same string?
[05:02] <dick-richardson> bongo: yeah, removing it clears out the shutdown logo and the bootup logo
[05:02] <dick-richardson> after reboot, of course
[05:02] <OmegaCenti> If I were trying to find the information present at shutdown (like logs and what not) what log would I look at?
[05:02] <mike3_> dick-richardson, The fact that everything is auto detected. Grant you everything is modules mainly, but man who cares. :) If i build a server then I will go the route of gentoo or something. Probably BSD though to be honest.
 ah great - thanks ....
[05:02] <mike3_> it is just so nice to have an app installed in seconds. Not 15 mins
[05:02] <dick-richardson> bongo: least I could do :D
[05:02] <mike3_> or more
[05:03] <dick-richardson> mike3_: hehe
[05:03] <Affe-> hey everyone
[05:03] <Affe-> i was hoping to get a little cdrom help, if possible
[05:03] <kravlin> mike3: Not to mention the tons of free software that's just as good as the expensive stuff out there.
[05:04] <Affe-> can play audio cds through vlc and totem, but when i try to access the cd through thunar, or try to mount the drive manually it gives an error
[05:04] <mike3_> kravlin, yes but that is GNU open source though
[05:04] <mike3_> doesn't matter with distro
[05:04] <ziroday> !source
[05:04] <ubotu> You can easily fetch a package's source with apt-get. See: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html
[05:04] <ziroday> !sources/list
[05:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sources/list - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:05] <CorpseFeeder> Now how do I undo all this nonsense I've installed e.g. - tftp-server and dnsmasq etc... and return my system to normal?
[05:05] <dick-richardson> CorpseFeeder: sudo apt-get --purge autoremove 'app-name'
[05:06] <dick-richardson> CorpseFeeder: this isn't Windows, so no registry to worry about. Just flat files
[05:06] <CorpseFeeder> dick-richardson: good ;)
[05:06] <kravlin> ahorner: Any ideas????
[05:07] <nrdb> Does Ubuntu support UBoot on a PPC computer ?

[05:08] <younghacker> hey where can i get desktop backgrounds and themes for ubuntu?
[05:09] <Affe-> younghacker: backgrounds are just like windows, try www.deviantart.com
[05:09] <Affe-> themes are dependant on your window manager
[05:09] <emet> I know there is one made by members of the ubuntu forums
[05:09] <emet> Deluge ?
[05:09] <Affe-> kde, gnome, xfce, etc
[05:09] <kravlin> anyone know a good Backup system that compacts all your settings and package names into one file and is able to reapply that file after reinstall?
[05:09] <younghacker> cool thanks
[05:09] <Affe-> younghacker, no problem
[05:10] <matthew1429> i still get authentication failure after setting up vncpasswd any ideas?
[05:10] <Lunar_Lamp> !envy

[05:17] <Ricket> How stable and compatible is Ubuntu 64-bit? Should I stick with 32-bit or try the 64-bit edition (on my Core 2 Duo 2.0ghz)?
[05:17] <rustalot> kravlin: I want to restart nautilus; would I do ` killall "nautilus --no-default-window --sm-client-id default2" `?
[05:17] <crdlb> Ricket, for desktop systems, I highly recommend using 32bit for now
[05:17] <crdlb> for example flash is very hard to get working on 64bit
[05:18] <Ricket> Okay, will do.
[05:18] <kravlin> rustalot: I only know the command for kill. I've been using ubuntu for about a month now. For that level of question it would be better to ask someone more senior.
[05:18] <crdlb> rustalot, just killall nautilus
[05:18] <kravlin> rustalot: I have never had to restart Nautilus.
[05:19] <incandenzian> I'm having problems installing Deluge.
[05:19] <kevogod> When I transfer files from a Windows computer (an SMB share), the transfer rate is very slow. Does anyone have any recommendations on how to improve the speed?
[05:19] <bazooka2th> RTFM
[05:19] <bazooka2th> srsly
[05:20] <sean_>  can someone help me with ntfs-3g?
[05:20] <bazooka2th> RTFM
[05:20] <CorpseFeede1> how do I install RTFM?
[05:20] <rustalot> kravlin: The only reason is that I added new scripts to it and they didn't show up
[05:20] <CorpseFeede1> ;)
[05:20] <Flankk> My PSU exploded and fried the mobo.  Luckily all the data on my 300 GB drive is okay.  I swapped the drive into a crappy PII with 128MB RAM and a 256MB RAM graphics card!  Unfortunately this is what I have to work with until I get a new mobo.  What distro should I use, and will swap space on a separate drive make it much faster/bearable?
[05:20] <bazooka2th> corpse.
[05:20] <bazooka2th> rtfm.
[05:20] <CorpseFeede1> lol
[05:20] <incandenzian> incandenzian@Lynn-X:~$ python setup.py build
[05:20] <incandenzian> python: can't open file 'setup.py': [Errno 2]  No such file or directory
[05:20] <onexused> sean_: what part of it?
[05:20] <sean_> onexused: it wont recognize my internal hd's
[05:20] <rustalot> Flankk: Try Xubuntu.
[05:21] <sean_> onexused: i have the driver installed and everything
[05:21] <Flankk> rustalot, is it good with 128MB RAM?
[05:21] <bazooka2th> HEY FLANKK YOU KNOW SOMETHING COOL?
[05:21] <Ricket> kevogod: Well if either computer (or both) are on wireless then get them on a wired connection. You could get a gigabit setup but that would be pricey. You could also try hosting an FTP server on the Windows machine, I have found FTP to be a LOT faster than the Windows share protocol
[05:21] <incandenzian> Once you have the needed libraries installed,
[05:21] <incandenzian> build Deluge by running:
[05:21] <incandenzian> 	python setup.py build
[05:21] <incandenzian> this cmd doesn't work.
[05:21] <bazooka2th> IF YOU HAVE THE BALLS TO RUN WITHOUT X YOU CAN USE THAT 256MB of RAM ON YOUR VIDEO CARD AS SWAP SPACE OR A RAM DISK ITS LEET
[05:21] <bazooka2th> UBER LEET
[05:22] <onexused> sean_: to make sure I'm clear, from the command line you type #"ntfs-3g <dev> <mountpoint>", right?
[05:22] <rustalot> Flankk: You'll want the 'alternate install cd', as the live CD cannot boot into less that 192 MB, but once you install, it should work fine.
[05:22] <Flankk> That was a good tip.. minus the caps..  LOL
[05:22] <kevogod> Ricket: Both computers are on a wired LAN. The transfer speeds are very slow. It appears Ubuntu is not attempting to utilize all of the available bandwidth.
[05:22] <sean_> onexused: i followed the steps !ubotu gave me
[05:22] <Tom47_> rustalot livecd boots ok here in 128mb
[05:22] <onexused> !ubotu ntfs-3g
[05:22] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[05:22] <onexused> sean_: sec
[05:22] <Flankk> rustalot, I'm running ubuntu server with xfce right now.  Will Xubuntu be much faster?
[05:23] <kravlin> anyone know a good Backup system that compacts all your settings and package names into one file and is able to reapply that file after reinstall?
[05:23] <nalioth> Flankk: it's the same thing
[05:23] <CorpseFeeder> now that my connection to this IRC channel has been restored... did anyone answer my question re: installing on a hard disk then swapping the hard disk into another machine?.. or did my connection give up before my question arrived in here?
[05:23] <Tom47_> nalioth doesn't server use a different kernel or was that just
[05:24] <Tom47_> ltS?
[05:24] <rustalot> Flank: By the way? do you know anything about fstab?
[05:24] <Tom47_> LTS
[05:24] <CorpseFeeder> what was my last message in here before I lost connection?
[05:24] <Flankk> nalioth, Well it's super slow right now and barely usable.  I have several hard drives lying around.  Will using some as swap space be any faster?  I know swap space is usually slow...
[05:24] <incandenzian> if I want to build something, what folder does it need to be in?
[05:24] <nalioth> Tom47_: nope, Ubuntu is all the same underneath
[05:24] <incandenzian> home?
[05:24] <CorpseFeeder> can someone scroll up and have a look?
[05:25] <nalioth> Flankk: adding more physical ram is the best you can do
[05:25] <kravlin> anyone know a good Backup system that compacts all your settings and package names into one file and is able to reapply that file after reinstall?
[05:25] <nalioth> incandenzian: any folder you like.  i use ~/build
[05:25] <Flankk> nalioth, I know that much, but that does not answer my question.
[05:25] <tyler_d> dvd's will not play after installing all packages... movie player states that the codecs aren't installed... vlc closes after hanging a bit. grrr?
[05:25] <incandenzian> hmm...
[05:25] <kravlin> anyone know a good Backup app that compacts all your settings and package names into one file and is able to reapply that file after reinstall?
[05:25] <nalioth> Flankk: how much physical ram do you have now, and how big is your swap?
[05:26] <incandenzian> I'm trying to install Deluge. The Readme says 'Once you have the needed libraries installed,
[05:26] <incandenzian> build Deluge by running:
[05:26] <incandenzian> 	python setup.py build'
[05:26] <rustalot> kravlin: APTonCD might be what you want
[05:26] <incandenzian> when I type the command in the terminal, I get "incandenzian@Lynn-X:~$ python setup.py build
[05:26] <incandenzian> python: can't open file 'setup.py': [Errno 2]  No such file or directory
[05:26] <incandenzian> "
[05:26] <bullgard4> Flankk: No, more swap will make your computer not faster under normal circumstances.
[05:26] <nalioth> incandenzian: you need to be in the directory where you unpacked all the files
[05:26] <kravlin> rustalot: is that avalible through apt-get?
[05:27] <rustalot> kravlin: but the settings are all stored in your home folder as hidden folders
[05:27] <incandenzian> ahh
[05:27] <incandenzian> so...
[05:27] <Flankk> nalioth, 128MB RAM, I'm not sure if swap is even set right now.  Let me check.
[05:27] <incandenzian> cd /home then?
[05:27] <CorpseFeeder> sod it... I'll just ask the same question again. If I install Ubuntu onto the hard disk in a CD-ROM-bootable machine, the pull the hard disk out and put it into a non-CD-ROM-bootable machine, is that going to work? The two machines have completely different hardware...
[05:27] <onexused> sean_: you there still?
[05:27] <rustalot> Kravlin: ummm, not sure how I got it. 1 min, let me check
[05:27] <sean_> onexused: yea
[05:27] <nalioth> Flankk: no swap and as bullgard4 pointed out, too much swap will hinder performance
[05:27] <sean_> onexused: you said to wait a sec
[05:27] <crdlb> incandenzian, there is an apt repository for deluge
[05:27] <crdlb> !deluge
[05:27] <ubotu> deluge is a new Bittorrent client, created using Python and GTK+, intended to bring a native, full-featured client to !GTK environments such as GNOME and Xfce - See http://deluge-torrent.org/ for more information or http://download.deluge-torrent.org/stable/ubuntu/feisty/ for downloading.
[05:27] <onexused> sean_: open a termianl.  Is the folder you want to mount the ntfs partition to already created?
[05:27] <jmg> !openvpn
[05:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about openvpn - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:28] <crdlb> err there's a .deb actually
[05:28] <kravlin> rustalot: I'm having a problem with creating a dual boot system with windows xp and i was told it may be because I have Ubuntu on the first partition and Windows on the third with a fat32 partition inbetween.
[05:28] <incandenzian> the page said, and I quote, "DO NOT INSTALL THIS VERSION"
[05:28] <jmg> anyone know how to make the openvpn options appear in network-manager?
[05:28] <incandenzian> haha
[05:28] <incandenzian> the version in the repository.
[05:28] <sean_> onexused: its a windows hd and a slave
[05:28] <jmg> i apt-get installed network-manager-openvpn, but it didnt work
[05:28] <onexused> sean_: is that a yes or no? : )
[05:28] <sean_> onexused: yes
[05:28] <crdlb> incandenzian, no not the official ubuntu repository
[05:29] <crdlb> that version has been removed
[05:29] <onexused> sean_: ok
[05:29] <incandenzian> ahh
[05:29] <crdlb> follow the link from ubotu
[05:29] <crdlb> they provide a .deb package
[05:29] <jmg> I even rebooted
[05:30] <onexused> sean_: try sudo ntfs-3g <ntfs partition> <folder to mount to>
[05:30] <onexused> does this mount the partition?
[05:30] <Flankk> nalioth, no swap set right now.  So would 500MB swap speed it up?  I hear swap is faster if you use another drive since it's not seeking anything else.
[05:30] <jmg> !vpn
[05:30] <ubotu> From more information on vpn please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Gaming_VPN_Using_PPTPD
[05:30] <nalioth> Flankk: 128 x 3
[05:30] <jmg> !ovpn
[05:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ovpn - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:30] <bullgard4> kravlin: The fact that Ubuntu is on partition 1 and Windows is on partition 3, is no reason for having troubles. The sequence of installing Ubuntu and Windows may be the reason of your trouble.
[05:30] <jmg> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OpenVPNClientMiniHowto is empty
[05:30] <rustalot> Kravlin: I wouldn't be able to help you w/ the dual boot thing, but the aptoncd package is called 'aptoncd', its description page is here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/admin/aptoncd and if you back up your home folder, it will keep all of your settings for your programs ( but just the settings, use the aptoncd to backup the programs)
[05:30] <Flankk> nalioth, 400MB then...  would it make a difference?
[05:30] <incandenzian> crdlb, thank you :)
[05:31] <incandenzian> you too nailoth :)
[05:31] <kravlin> bullgard4: I did this before and it worked but it was on seperate hard drives.
[05:31] <nalioth> Flankk: sounds good to me
[05:31] <jmg> NetworkManager is empty too
[05:32] <Flankk> nalioth, So, the question remains.  Will swap make it faster, or not?
[05:32] <ziroday> !seveas
[05:32] <ubotu> Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages. More info (and mirrors) on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[05:32] <nalioth> Flankk: if you have no swap now, YES.
[05:32] <ivanAlvarez> #ubuntu-es
[05:32] <bullgard4> kravlin: Ubuntu and Windows can coexist on separate drives and on the same drive as well. In latter case they need to be on separate partitions.
[05:33] <sean_> onexused: "Cannot mount 'hda1': No such file or directory"
[05:33] <Flankk> nalioth, alright, I'll give it a shot then.  Thanks.
[05:33] <xenex> king almighty
[05:33] <onexused> sean_: tell me exactly what you typed, please
[05:33] <bullgard4> Runlevel -  Wikipedia writes: ""A mode of operation in a computer operating system that implements Unix System V-style initialization. The runlevel system replaces the traditional /etc/rc and /etc/rc.local scripts used in BSD UNIX." What stands 'rc' for?
[05:34] <sean_> onexused: "sudo ntfs-3g hda1 /media"
[05:34] <kravlin> bullgard4: they are. I Used all 4 Physical Partitions on the hard drive. Its a 250 gig drive with the first half being taken up by ubuntu. the next quarter is a fat32 partition so i can transfer files without any major problems and the last quarter is for windows xp.
[05:34] <kravlin> afterward is the swap for linux.
[05:34] <onexused> sean_: what version of ubuntu are you running?
[05:34] <sean_> 7.04
[05:34] <kravlin> bullgard4: afterward is the swap for linux.
[05:34] <Hoc1> just wondering if anyone knows how to get hpt366 mirror raids working
[05:34] <kravlin> bullgard4: Linux has no problem with it.
[05:35] <_peerless> so i just installed ubuntu and it boots to acommand line, not the desktop, what can i type to get to it
[05:35] <kitche> bullgard4: rc means run control
[05:35] <zipnet10> uh,o;i
[05:35] <bullgard4> kravlin: Your arrangement of partitions is not the cause of your windows troubles.
[05:36] <Hacim07> how does one change the mount options for hotplug devices such as usb mass storage devices?
[05:36] <sean_> onexused: sorry i forgot to type your name before, im running 7.04
[05:36] <bullgard4> kitche: Thank you very much.
[05:36] <kitche> _peerless: startx but if you installed a commabnd line system you won't have X
[05:36] <Hock> Or rather... How can I make my two raids function (mirrors on HPT366)
[05:36] <_peerless> yeah i dont have startx
[05:36] <Hock> highpoint technologies
[05:36] <nickrud> _peerless, start with sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[05:36] <kravlin> bullgard4: any idea what else it could be then?
[05:36] <_peerless> will it need the cdrom, because i installed from usb
[05:37] <nickrud> _peerless, depends on whats on the usb, and do you have quick internet?
[05:37] <kitche> nickrud: that probably won't work for him if he does have startx sicne that means he has no xserver-xorg installed
[05:37] <_peerless> yeah xserver-xorg isnt there either
[05:37] <kitche> does/doesn't
[05:37] <nickrud> kitche, true, it'll either work, or fail. Learn something either way :)
[05:37] <CorpseFeeder> If I install Ubuntu onto the hard disk in a CD-ROM-bootable machine, the pull the hard disk out and put it into a non-CD-ROM-bootable machine, is that going to work? The two machines have completely different hardware...
[05:37] <_peerless> it failed
[05:38] <_peerless> said its not installed
[05:38] <greg_g> what gnome app (read: not k3b) would be good to rip cds with?  Sound Juicer is just WAY too simplified, at least the version in fiesty repos.
[05:38] <kingnothing> what's a good program for mounting disc images of all types?
[05:38] <bullgard4> kravlin: I have ideas, but too many to list them here. Please pastebin dmesg messages so that one can analyze any error messages in them and advise you.
[05:38] <nickrud> _peerless, ok, do you have good internet?
[05:38] <kitche> _peerless: sudo apt-get install xorg && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop should give you X and gnome with all the ubuntu goodies
[05:38] <_peerless> yeah but it makes me isnert /cdrom but i dont have one
[05:38] <_peerless> i dont have a cdrom drive
[05:38] <onexused> sean_: Okay.  First, drive paths start with /dev, and 7.04 uses sd* instead of hd*, whether the drive is SATA or IDE, so you'd want '/dev/sda1' instead of 'hda1'.  Secondly, you don't want to mount anything directly to /media.  Make a directory inside /media (/media/sda1, for example) and mount to it.  Try 'sudo mkdir /media/sda1; sudo ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/sda1'.  (I'm not sure if you need the second sudo.)
[05:38] <_peerless> i installedv ia usb
[05:39] <_peerless> ill try mounting the usb to /cdrom
[05:39] <_peerless> then doing it
[05:39] <kitche> _peerless: you have to remove the cdrom option from your sources.list
[05:39] <_peerless> oh
[05:39] <_peerless> how do i do that :(
[05:39] <quaal> what in the hell
[05:39] <quaal> i have this mplayer process
[05:39] <quaal> that keeps coming out of nowhere, then disappearing
[05:39] <quaal> i keep killing it but it just keeps coming back
[05:39] <kitche> _peerless: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list look for the apt-cdrom line and put a # infront
[05:40] <sean_> onexused: "NTFS signature is missing"
[05:40] <_peerless> ok
[05:40] <kingnothing> nevermind, just found out about acetoneISO
[05:40] <kitche> quaal: do you have firefox and mplayer-plugin?
[05:40] <onexused> sean_: you're sure that's the ntfs partition?
[05:40] <kitche> _peerless: then press ctrl+O to save it and ctrl+x to exit ^ means ctrl
[05:40] <sean_> yea
[05:40] <_peerless> i dont see anything about cdrom in that file
[05:40] <quaal> kitche, i believe so
[05:40] <onexused> sean_: just for kicks, try 'sudo ntf-3g /dev/hda1 /media/hda1'
[05:41] <quaal> kitche, but i closed firefox
[05:41] <_peerless> just a bunch of deb-src and deb http stuff
[05:41] <sean_> onexused: yes, i previously had it running fine on a previous install of ubuntu
[05:41] <onexused> sean_: I mean /media/sda1, sorry
[05:41] <_olaf> how do i change a NTFS USB drive to read AND write? it auto-mounts when i plug it in and when i right click and try to change permissions it says it can't
[05:41] <_peerless> nevermind
[05:41] <_peerless> i see it
[05:41] <_peerless> it says
[05:41] <_peerless> deb cdrom
[05:41] <_peerless> not apt
[05:41] <kravlin> bullgard4: I can't pastebin the messages. They happen half way through the boot.
[05:42] <sean_> onexused: that worked
[05:42] <sean_> onexused: thanks man
[05:42] <onexused> sean_: no problem.  Do you want it to mount every time you start up?
[05:42] <kitche> _peerless: yeah that one I usually just look for the cdrom part and I know that is it :)
[05:42] <_peerless> yeah
[05:42] <_peerless> its going now
[05:42] <_peerless> its installing startx
[05:42] <_peerless> or whatever
[05:42] <_peerless> initx
[05:42] <sean_> onexused: yes
[05:43] <bullgard4> kravlin: I do not understand your sentence: "They happen half way through the boot" as English is not my mother's language. Say it in other words.
[05:43] <onexused> sean_: open /etc/fstab as root 'sudo vi /etc/fstab'
[05:44] <sean_> onexused: ok
[05:44] <kravlin> bullgard4: Windows reboots during the install. When it does that's when it tells me it has a  disk error and asks me to press a key to restart.
[05:44] <onexused> sean_: ok, hold on a sec now
[05:44] <obvio171> i'm having a problem with usb mass storage dying after a little time connected
[05:44] <obvio171> i get to transfer stuff for some time, but then it dies without unmounting and doesn't complete the transfer

[05:46] <greg_g> which directory is the preferred one in ubuntu to put self-installed applications in?
[05:46] <onexused> sean_: It might be a couple minutes before I say anything more, k?
[05:46] <kitche> greg_g: /usr/local/
[05:46] <greg_g> thanks
[05:47] <sean_> onexused: yea, i got time
[05:47] <greg_g> kitche, usr/local/share? bin?
[05:47] <kitche> greg_g: just /usr/local/ then the installer should put the files in the right spot but most go in /usr/lolca/bin/
[05:47] <kravlin> bullgard4: no. I have been running Ubuntu for a while now and just recently decided to make my system dual-boot. It worked when both were on different hard drives but now it gives me this error. I can fix GRUB after the install if i could just get windows installed.
[05:47] <kitche> greg_g: /usr/local/bin/*
[05:48] <kevin57> kitche: Sorry for my ignorance on IRC etiquette, and thank you very much for the help.
[05:49] <kitche> kevin57: the ~/.rtorrent.rc message can be ignored really
[05:49] <greg_g> kitche, sorry, but just to be clear, I copy the untar'd folder into /usr/local/, then go in that folder, so /usr/local/newapp/ and do the install there?
[05:49] <onexused> sean_: You know how to use vi, right?
[05:49] <kitche> greg_g: if it's source and it has a configure script do ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/
[05:49] <sean_> onexused: not realy
[05:49] <greg_g> kitche, ahhhh, ok
[05:50] <onexused> sean_: okay.  Close it, then (hit escape, colon, q, !, enter)
[05:50] <onexused> sean_: You're using gnome or KDE?
[05:50] <sean_> onexused: close terminal?
[05:50] <sean_> onexused: gnome
[05:51] <jamman> onexused, u us vi too?
[05:51] <onexused> sean_: okay.  'sudo gedit /etc/fstab' then.
[05:51] <BloodyTux> hello, how do i kill kdm and start gdm?
[05:51] <BloodyTux> i hate the kubuntu login and grub boot
[05:52] <blanky> hey guys, in command line FTP, is there such thing as a 'move' command? so if I have files in one folder, move them to another?
[05:52] <jamman> BloodyTux, "sudo killall kdm" "sudo gdm"
[05:52] <onexused> jamman: yeah.  I like the version on ubuntu quite well.
[05:52] <octoberdan> I'm having the strangest problem... I'm getting a "unmet dependencies" error, but the dependency it listed are installed!
[05:52] <octoberdan> http://pastebin.ca/585206
[05:52] <octoberdan> What the heck is going on?
[05:52] <jamman> onexused, its very nice. my only editor. gedit, kate. phh. who need them?
[05:52] <Dr_willis> 'killin kdm' will restart X. To make tye system use gdm  instead of kdm the command is 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm' *i think&*
[05:52] <tyler_d> error: are you trying to play an encrypted dvd without libdvdcss ( from totem), no I'm not... ran sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2 w32codecs..??? still nothing
[05:52] <jamman> octoberdan, do you have the -dev ones?
[05:52] <IanL> Anyone, use ubuntu in Japanese? or is there another channel for that?
[05:53] <tannerld> how can I get php gd to look at the font dir for ubuntu?
[05:53] <octoberdan> jamman: What dev ones?
[05:53] <guava_> hi , sometimes my kde can't run ,anybody can help me?
[05:53] <_olaf> how do i change a NTFS USB drive to read AND write? it auto-mounts when i plug it in and when i right click and try to change permissions it says it can't
[05:53] <jamman> octoberdan, if you are trying to install something from source, and it says you need abc, in apt or aptitude you need abc-dev
[05:54] <kravlin> !.jp
[05:54] <ubotu>  #ubuntu-jp  #kubuntu-jp

[05:54] <blanky> anyone? please?
[05:54] <guava_> hi , sometimes my kde can't run ,anybody can help me?
[05:54] <sql_hesw> I just deleted an important file in ubuntu , is there any way to recover it?
[05:54] <BaD_CrC> haha, one of my friends just asked me "how do you keep your linux box running so quick and smoothly?" I told him I don't install every package I see and keep everything to a minimum. He's all like "oh". the guys is a bit of a twit. he installs everything and never deletes anything. he's a program packrat.
[05:54] <jamman> !ntfs |_olaf,
[05:54] <ubotu> _olaf,: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[05:54] <octoberdan> jamman: I didn't think I was installing it from source.. I'll give it a sot
[05:54] <octoberdan> *shot
[05:54] <Alconquian> is it possible to do the same thing as "lock screen", but instead switch user accounts (basically, persist apps and such but allow someone else to login under an entirely different session)?
[05:54] <jamman> octoberdan, are you using apt or aptitude?
[05:54] <bullgard4> kravlin: Apparently installing both operating systems on the same hard drive places higher requirements to both operating systems. So I recommend to first install Windows and Linux afterwards. This worked for me on two laptops. This also made less trouble in my local computer club. And this is what I have read many times in forums.
[05:54] <_olaf> !ntfs-3g
[05:54] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions

[05:54] <_olaf> thanks, man
[05:55] <octoberdan> jamman: so apt
[05:55] <deaden> wheres the global logical port definition file?
[05:55] <sean_> onexused: done
[05:55] <jamman> octoberdan, let me check it out.
[05:55] <IanL> thks kravlin
[05:55] <octoberdan> jamman: I just tried installing the -dev, but still without luck
[05:55] <IanL> I saw it earlier
[05:55] <kravlin> IanL: no problem. Good luck.
[05:55] <octoberdan> octoberdan: Thanks
[05:55] <simpleH> what's the best beginner's programming software for linux?
[05:56] <kravlin> bullgard4: I guess a backup and reformat is my best option. Thanks.
[05:56] <jamman> octoberdan, well, try a sudo apt-get update
[05:56] <onexused> sean_: It should be mounted when you boot now.
[05:56] <sql_hesw> is there any good file recovery tool for ubuntu?
[05:56] <jamman> octoberdan, also do you have universe and multiverse enabled?
[05:56] <sean_> onexused: thanks, i appreciate your help
[05:57] <octoberdan> jamman: Yes, and I already tried apt-get updating
[05:57] <jamman> octoberdan, also do you have universe and multiverse enabled?
[05:57] <octoberdan> jamman: Indeed
[05:57] <onexused> sean_: You're welcome.
[05:58] <jamman> octoberdan, well. try something like "sudo apt-get install -f"
[05:58] <octoberdan> jamman: hmm.. still gives me the dependency error
[05:59] <jamman> octoberdan, well, post a bug.
[05:59] <BaD_CrC> sudo apt-get autoremove
[05:59] <BaD_CrC> oops, window had focus. :)
[05:59] <octoberdan> jamman: What about the situation is bug report worthy? That it has a dependency listed that I have installed?
[06:00] <guava_> hi , sometimes my kde can't run ,anybody can help me?
[06:00] <hikenboot> greetings all I found a how to setup bridging between two nics for ubuntu. Has anyone seen a document on bridging that goes into packing it into a remaster of ubuntu or knoppix?
[06:00] <octoberdan> guava_: Try xfce? ;-)
[06:00] <onexused> guava_: more info on that?
[06:00] <guava_> no i  like kde
[06:00] <_olaf> okay
[06:00] <_olaf> how do install ntfs3g?
[06:00] <octoberdan> guava_: How can you like something that doesn't run when you want it to?
[06:01] <octoberdan> guava_: I'm only giving you a hard time. What happens when it fails?
[06:01] <jamman> octoberdan, well, try one more thing. it says 7 not upgraded, try sudo apt-get upgrade.
[06:01] <BloodyTux> yea.... i use the killall thing and i had to restart any ideas on how i can change from kdm to gdm?
[06:01] <octoberdan> jamman: Doing that now
[06:01] <guava_> no moe info,the screen just black
[06:01] <octoberdan> jamman: and I'll have to restart
[06:01] <PF|Ubuntu> Everytime I try to do a "chown" command to change the ownership of a dir to root, it get an "Operation not permitted"
[06:01] <octoberdan> jamman: Kernel upgrade
[06:01] <jamman> BloodyTux, "sudo dpgk-reconfigure gdm"
[06:01] <jamman> octoberdan, i see. from -15 to -16?
[06:02] <BloodyTux> jamman: k thanks
[06:02] <octoberdan> PF|Ubuntu: sudo chown?
[06:02] <microscone> Bloodytux, in /etc/rc.conf
[06:02] <PF|Ubuntu> octoberdan, I tried
[06:02] <octoberdan> jamman: I think
[06:02] <microscone> Bloodytux,oh that
[06:02] <PF|Ubuntu> octoberdan: I still get the same error with sudo
[06:02] <octoberdan> PF|Ubuntu: pastebin your log?
[06:02] <jscinoz> In ubuntu 7.04 is ntfs-3g required for NTFS read/write access or can the kernel do read/write?
[06:03] <PF|Ubuntu> octoberdan, which log?
[06:03] <BloodyTux> so now can i close all x session without restarting?
[06:03] <_olaf> how do i install ntfs-3g?
[06:03] <bullgard4> kravlin: A backup is advisable. Yes. I am not sure if an explicit reformat is necessary before you start installing Windows. I believe the usual Windows install CDs will format first anyway. But you might ask a more knowledgeable person for that.
[06:03] <jamman> !ntfs | jscinoz
[06:03] <octoberdan> PF|Ubuntu: Of your attempt and the following messages
[06:03] <PF|Ubuntu> octoberdan, ok
[06:03] <ubotu> jscinoz: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[06:03] <jamman> _olaf |!ntfs
[06:03] <microscone> Bloodytux, yep
[06:03] <BloodyTux> how?
[06:03] <_olaf> !ntfs
[06:03] <octoberdan> bullgard4: There's an option to wipe out your hard drive
[06:03] <_olaf> !ntfs-3g
[06:03] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[06:03] <jscinoz> so i do need to keep ntfs3g... wonder why synaptic said it was autoremoveable..
[06:03] <microscone> Bloodytux, Log out and just choose what session
[06:03] <BloodyTux> k
[06:04] <madman91> hey guys
[06:04] <octoberdan> Who would install windows... on purpose?
[06:04] <jamman> madman91, hello.
[06:04] <madman91> is there a file in which i can add longer commands into shorter commands
[06:04] <jamman> octoberdan, i did. for games.
[06:04] <octoberdan> Sober?
[06:04] <PF|Ubuntu> octoberdan, did I mention Im trying to change permissions for a folder on /media/disk?
[06:04] <madman91> like /etc/hosts
[06:04] <jamman> madman91, such as...
[06:04] <bullgard4> octoberdan: All right. But please advise kravlin on that.
[06:04] <octoberdan> PF|Ubuntu: Gah! Wrong way then
[06:04] <octoberdan> PF|Ubuntu: I believe
[06:04] <kravlin> bullgard4: They do format. Its a pain in the butt. Thanks!
[06:05] <madman91> jamman: well.. vncviewer IPADRESS into vncview
[06:05] <PF|Ubuntu> octoberdan, would that have anything to do with it?
[06:05] <octoberdan> bullgard4: Now you know for sure
[06:05] <gpled> exit
[06:05] <octoberdan> hehe
[06:05] <_olaf> it does not tell you how to get/install ntfs-3g on that web page
[06:05] <jamman> madman91, umm... google it?
[06:05] <_olaf> someone please inform me how to install it
[06:05] <PF|Ubuntu> octoberdan: I even did sudo -s to change to root and then tried to chown it, didnt work
[06:05] <madman91> jamman: troll
[06:05] <jamman> madman91, or try a ln -s
[06:05] <madman91> jamman: nope
[06:06] <madman91> jamman: ln -s is only for one word commands
[06:06] <PF|Ubuntu> _olaf, have you tried apt?
[06:06] <madman91> jamman: i could make a script..
[06:06] <jamman> madman91, i see.
[06:06] <_olaf> what do i type, PF|Ubuntu?
[06:06] <octoberdan> PF|Ubuntu: What are you trying to achieve, ultimately?
[06:06] <madman91> jamman: but i tend to avoid workarounds
[06:06] <onexused> !apt
[06:06] <ubotu> APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[06:06] <wols> onexused: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions does tell you how to install it very clearly
[06:06] <PF|Ubuntu> octoberdan, Im trying to make it so I cant access this folder at all unless I want to go through a great deal of reversal work
[06:06] <_olaf> why does everyone just ! commands instead of answering questions like a human
[06:07] <wols> _olaf: nstalling NTFS 3G Driver
[06:07] <_olaf> you're not being helpful at all
[06:07] <onexused> wols: I think you mean to speak to _olaf
[06:07] <wols> onexused: you're right
[06:07] <_olaf> no it doesn't, wols
[06:07] <octoberdan> PF|Ubuntu: Something like http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2890312 ?
[06:07] <jamman> madman91, yes, with vncviewer host and then ln -s the script.
[06:07] <wols> _olaf: it CLEARLY says "Installing NTFS 3G Driver"
[06:07] <wols> _olaf: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[06:07] <jamman> _olaf, try "sudo apt-get install ntfs3g"
[06:07] <wols> so what else do you need?
[06:08] <wols> jamman: not good. a) he's lazy b) you are wrong
[06:08] <tyler_d> ummm... what if I was foolish and chmoded a few things in my /media folder?
[06:08] <madman91> jamman: yeah..
[06:08] <_olaf> thanks, jamm
[06:08] <_olaf> it worked perfect
[06:08] <wols> tyler_d: chmod them back
[06:08] <jamman> wobs, how so?
[06:08] <wols> jamman: read the page
[06:08] <madman91> jamman: i was hoping you could do it in a different way
[06:08] <tyler_d> wols: what permissions should they have?
[06:08] <madman91> jamman: oh well.. thanks anyways
[06:08] <jamman> _olaf, try "sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g"
[06:08] <wols> tyler_d: depends what you chmodded
[06:09] <_olaf> yeah, i did that
[06:09] <_olaf> when the first one didn't work
[06:09] <PF|Ubuntu> octoberdan, Operation not permitted
[06:09] <_olaf> thank you, jamman

[06:09] <wols> tyler_d: 666
[06:09] <PF|Ubuntu> octoberdan, is root allowed to have ownership of files?
[06:09] <octoberdan> PF|Ubuntu: Of course
[06:09] <tyler_d> wols: ty
[06:09] <wols> PF|Ubuntu: of course
[06:09] <PF|Ubuntu> octoberdan, Ok, well none of this is working
[06:10] <jamman> PF|Ubuntu, naturally
[06:10] <octoberdan> PF|Ubuntu: Can you please copy and paste your console contents to pastebin.ca so we can take a closer look at what exactly your trying to do?
[06:10] <wols> PF|Ubuntu: you need to be root to be able to chown to root
[06:10] <_Codeman_> how do I add pidgin to the menu think (the big blue k)
[06:10] <PF|Ubuntu> wols, i'll try that
[06:10] <wols> PF|Ubuntu: and sudo will work
[06:10] <wols> !Pidgin
[06:10] <ubotu> pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It wasn't released in time for Feisty. Expect it in gutsy. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info.
[06:11] <PF|Ubuntu> wols, dont try to compile from source either
[06:11] <PF|Ubuntu> I tried already, doesnt work right
[06:11] <PF|Ubuntu> stick with GAIM
[06:11] <_Codeman_> I hate gaim
[06:11] <wols> PF|Ubuntu: why would I compile from source? and what I do compile for source works just right. thanks
[06:11] <PIPBoy_> wait, why no using pidgin?
[06:11] <wols> _Codeman_: gaim IS pidgin
[06:11] <PIPBoy_> i compiled mine form source
[06:11] <_Codeman_> I KNOW that
[06:11] <PF|Ubuntu> wols, just saying, Pidgin doesnt like being compiled from source
[06:11] <tyler_d> wols: still getting error: source can't be read, nothing wrong with the disk though?
[06:11] <wols> PF|Ubuntu: that's nonsense
[06:11] <rockets> PF|Ubuntu, then it doesn't like to exist
[06:12] <PF|Ubuntu> Im serious, Ive already tried to compile it
[06:12] <PIPBoy_> what are you talking about? it works perfectly from source
[06:12] <rockets> That's like saying binaries don't like to be compiled
[06:12] <PF|Ubuntu> Three times actually
[06:12] <wols> tyler_d: pastebin the commandline and output
[06:12] <rockets> pidgin b/i/r in prevu actually
[06:12] <PF|Ubuntu> It didnt want to work for me
[06:12] <PIPBoy_> all you have to do is just add the script for the sound in the sound tab which is just copy and paste
[06:12] <IanL> pidgin works compiling from source for me
[06:12] <wols> PF|Ubuntu: if you had a PEBKAC, there is nothing wrong with pidgin. nothing more than it's usually wrongness which is moret han enough of course
[06:13] <_Codeman_> I compiled and installed pidgin already just need to know how to add it to the main menu thing
[06:13] <kravlin> octoberdan: I was. I want to play counterstrike: source and i love skinning my guns in it. However i have been having problems with wine. Otherwise windows blows.
[06:13] <PF|Ubuntu> octoberdan, I got it working
[06:13] <tyler_d> wols: thats in trying to play the disk, not chmod it.... and I think I got it... ty though
[06:14] <octoberdan> PF|Ubuntu: Great. What was the problem?
[06:14] <PF|Ubuntu> octoberdan, the disk name changed on me
[06:14] <_olaf> also, is there anyway to add support for WMA audio in Ubuntu?
[06:15] <PF|Ubuntu> octoberdan, something easy and stupid :-p
[06:15] <PF|Ubuntu> _olaf, try to play a WMA and it should prompt you to install the codecs
[06:15] <octoberdan> hehe
[06:15] <_olaf> it gave me an error before, PF|Ubuntu
[06:15] <octoberdan> PF|Ubuntu: type "mount"
[06:15] <octoberdan> PF|Ubuntu: By itself
[06:15] <PF|Ubuntu> Ive got it already thanks ;)
[06:16] <octoberdan> PF|Ubuntu: I know, I mean for future reference
[06:16] <PF|Ubuntu> What was the name of that codec package
[06:16] <octoberdan> PF|Ubuntu: Which codec package?
[06:16] <rockets> http://compsoc.dur.ac.uk/whitespace/
[06:16] <rockets> its the language of the future
[06:16] <octoberdan> give me its name and I'll know ;-)
[06:16] <PF|Ubuntu> The one that auto installs when you try to play something that's not supported
[06:16] <PF|Ubuntu> I dont remember the name
[06:17] <kravlin> is there a good divx plugin in firefox for linux?
[06:17] <octoberdan> rockets: Oh, dear god
[06:17] <rockets> octoberdan, hehe
[06:17] <BaD_CrC> kravlin: mozilla-mplayer-plugin
[06:17] <LCCUB> I have a via sata controller that causes lockups when using my 500gb HDD under windows (locks up under load) is it likely to do the same with ubuntu or might i have better luck?
[06:18] <matthew1429> i still get authentication failure after setting up vncpasswd any ideas?
[06:18] <kravlin> Bad_CrC: I heard that one only does xvid not divx.
[06:18] <onexused> octoberdan: something depraved? or just stupid?
[06:18] <wols> LCCUB: you might have better luck but there are no guarantees
[06:18] <teer2> hmmm - okay, so FSF released Gnash version 0.8.0 back 12 days ago.  I am wanting to get this through the Ubuntu Synaptic Package Manager, but how long will it take to get that new version released through Ubuntu?
[06:18] <LCCUB> worth a try though I geuss
[06:18] <wols> kravlin: ffmpeg
[06:19] <LCCUB> I wish it was plug n play ;)
[06:19] <megafauna> HI. Can someone recommend a decent file backup utility that can copy directories which only replaces the files which have been altered and leaves the unaltered ones? I had one in windoze but not now
[06:19] <teer2> Is it recommended that I get the version from FSF instead of Synaptic?
[06:19] <madman91> megafauna: you can try rsync
[06:19] <madman91> megafauna: its in command line
[06:19] <madman91> megafauna: it basically mirrors the dest. to any changes in source
[06:20] <megafauna> madman91 thanks! I am looking it up now
[06:20] <ice_cream> hey, starting using ubuntu again after long break; noticed that mounting changed a bit...usb devices can now be on the same device?  (e.g. /dev/sdb1)
[06:20] <PF|Ubuntu> megafauna, try Konserve?
[06:20] <madman91> megafauna: the manual is a little bit deep
[06:20] <_Codeman_> can someone please tell me how to add programs to my kde menu
[06:21] <ircleuser> hello
[06:21] <madman91> megafauna: you can try Konserve or rsync.. but if you choose rsync, just use rsync -av SOURCE DEST
[06:21] <madman91> megafauna: easy stuff
[06:21] <megafauna> madman91 the manual is deeeeep!
[06:21] <ice_cream> man man ftw
[06:22] <megafauna> madman91 I'm trying your command line
[06:22] <madman91> megafauna: thats because rsync isnt only used in this simple sense
[06:22] <madman91> megafauna: its also throughout the internet and stuff
[06:22] <kravlin> stil no worky.
[06:22] <megafauna> PF|Ubuntu thanks, i will look that up too
[06:22] <ircleuser> I have trouble installing Feisty on a Toshiba Tecra A4, I have no access to eth1 or to any of the USB port. I am supposed to "boot with pci=noacpi and IRQpoll, but I don't really know how to do that. Any information?
[06:22] <madman91> megafauna: you can use rsync with ftp, http, across lan, across ssh, etc..
[06:22] <_olaf> which torrent client can i easily install from ubuntu that is sort of like uTorrent for Windows?
[06:22] <PF|Ubuntu> madman91, I might look into rsync also
[06:23] <PF|Ubuntu> _olaf, ktorrent
[06:23] <Darkhack> ircleuser, right after you boot ubuntu you will get a menu with different choices.  At the bottom you can type commands in.  Don't delete any of the current commands, but append those on.
[06:23] <madman91> _olaf: azureus is in windows as well
[06:23] <ice_cream> teer2, you can try compiling source, though it's not recommended by the "regulars" of this channel, as i recall
[06:23] <madman91> _olaf: it is one of the better ones for linux
[06:23] <blmartin778> What is a good dedicated server company?
[06:23] <ircleuser> darkhack: I don't, I immediately get the logo and a loading bar :s
[06:23] <megafauna> madman91: no this is just my home files backup to an external drive. nice and easy:)
[06:23] <PF|Ubuntu> blmartin778, SagoNet is pretty good, so is Staminus
[06:23] <ice_cream> teer2, but then again, that's one of the major differences b/w  gentoo and ubuntu
[06:24] <madman91> megafauna: yeah.. i do that all the time
[06:24] <PF|Ubuntu> For some reason I like helping in this channel :-)
[06:24] <madman91> megafauna: rsync -av SOURce DESTination
[06:24] <mariocesar_bo> hi all, i had a fat32 partition and on it the thumbnails are not working when I configure on nautilus settings to see thumbnails on local places
[06:24] <teer2> ice_cream: I tried compiling the source.  No dice:
[06:24] <teer2> configure: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check
[06:24] <mariocesar_bo> just work when i set to get thumbnails from all places.
[06:24] <Darkhack> ircleuser, this occurs when booting from the desktop cd?
[06:25] <ircleuser> no, the install went right 100%
[06:25] <TheCougar> system monitor says i'm receiving on my ethernet (10/100) at 3.3MB/s and that its about 80% to 90% of my max. is ubuntu maybe reporting my ethernet wrong?
[06:25] <mariocesar_bo> why my partition it's not working as a local? anyoen can help me ?
[06:25] <jscinoz> slightly off topic.. but how hard would it be to modify a case fan with a 3/4pin connector to a usb connector?
[06:25] <PF|Ubuntu> mariocesar_bo, I had to set mine to All to get it to work
[06:25] <Darkhack> Okay, since it is installed, open up a terminal and type "sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst" and you will see a variable called "timeout" change that to 10.
[06:25] <PF|Ubuntu> Because I also have shared folders from my Windows machine that I like to see thumbnails for also
[06:25] <TheCougar> ha nevermind its just transmitting slow. it bumped down to 40% after a spike
[06:26] <mariocesar_bo> PF|Ubuntu: but just yestarday it was working, i don't remeber doing a set up
[06:26] <teer2> ice_cream: I like not having to compile everything and getting software updated in a sane manner.
[06:26] <ice_cream> teer2, you do have a c++ compiler right
[06:26] <ircleuser> darkhack: should I edit command lines in Grub?
[06:26] <PF|Ubuntu> mariocesar_bo, dont know then. Sometimes things just break and fix themselves :-p
[06:26] <mariocesar_bo> why it's working like this, it's quite anoying ... :'( i had all my pictures on the fat32 partition
[06:26] <Darkhack> You could if you are familar with how to append the boot options on correctly.
[06:26] <mariocesar_bo> :(
[06:26] <ice_cream> ice_cream, better question--have you compiled anything successfully before?
[06:26] <ice_cream> lol
[06:26] <ice_cream> i mean teer2*
[06:26] <Apollocre> Has anyone else had trouble booting after the latest update for Feisty?
[06:27] <ircleuser> darkhack: apparently not (just try, error 27: command not found
[06:27] <megafauna> madman91: by st. george's dragon it works! now to backup the BIG directory. Thanks again!
[06:27] <teer2> ice_cream: yes, but I think it was with GCC
[06:27] <ice_cream> teer2, but yea, it's better to avoid compiling on this package-based distro
[06:27] <madman91> megafauna: no problem
[06:27] <ircleuser> darkhack, is there a key to press to access this boot command line?
[06:27] <mariocesar_bo> mmm so, i had an ntfs partition and the thumbnails work there
[06:28] <madman91> megafauna: have fun with it :)
[06:28] <Apollocre> It freezes about 10 seconds into boot.
[06:28] <teer2> ice_cream: okay, I'll wait for the Ubuntu package guys to get it into Synaptic, I just wonder how long that will be.  Not because I'm impatient, just because I have no idea.  Is it typically a month or do the package versions only get re-evaluated on every major Ubuntu release?
[06:29] <kravlin> wols: any idea how to tell firefox to open .divx with ffmpeg. Its trying to open them with some other plugin currently.
[06:29] <PF|Ubuntu> teer2, as far as Ive seen, the package versions update in between releases
[06:29] <PF|Ubuntu> That's what apt-get upgrade is for
[06:30] <ircleuser> anyone has any idea how to boot with pci=noacpi and irqpoll?
[06:30] <ice_cream> teer2, shrug, i've taken a long break from ubuntu... coming back to it now  (installed server edition + fluxbox recently)
[06:30] <ircleuser> Looks like a solution, but I don't know how to do that, anyone, a solution?
[06:30] <teer2> PF|Ubuntu: apt-get upgrade might pull down a version higher than what is listed in Synaptic?
[06:31] <teer2> ice_cream: welcome back
[06:31] <wols> kravlin: nope :(
[06:31] <PF|Ubuntu> teer2, Synaptic and apt should be fairly close
[06:31] <Zombie> Has anyone attempted to use this Chipset?
[06:31] <ircleuser> hello anyone?
[06:31] <Darkhack> ircleuser, I sent you a PM.
[06:31] <mariocesar_bo> PF|Ubuntu: do you think it would be right to do a bug report on launchpad for the thumbnails problem?
[06:32] <kravlin> wols: Now a better channel for help? Something like #firefox?
[06:32] <ice_cream> teer2, usually build-essential was enough for compiling
[06:32] <PF|Ubuntu> mariocesar_bo, I wouldnt think so, unless you know other people that have the same problems
[06:32] <wols> Zombie: what chipset
[06:32] <mariocesar_bo> you?
[06:32] <wols> kravlin: I'd use google personally
[06:32] <QwertyM> How do I use themus-theme-applier to change gnome themes via CLI ?
[06:32] <ircleuser> darkhack: I didn't receive it"s
[06:32] <Zombie> ATI RADEON Xpress1150 256MB HyperMemory
[06:32] <PF|Ubuntu> mariocesar_bo, I changed mine back and it works fine now
[06:32] <ice_cream> and linux-headers-`uname -a`
[06:32] <teer2> ice_cream: thank you very much for your advice!
[06:32] <ice_cream> er..  uname -r
[06:33] <wols> Zombie: what about it?
[06:33] <mariocesar_bo> but still don't know what is wrong ?
[06:33] <PF|Ubuntu> mariocesar_bo, I really cant tell
[06:33] <Darkhack> Your client must be broken.  Anyways, you are booted to an installed Ubuntu right now, correct?
[06:33] <Zombie> Has anyone used this chipset?
[06:33] <mariocesar_bo> ok, thanks
[06:33] <wols> Zombie: ask your real question
[06:33] <Zombie> I'm considering buying a laptop.
[06:34] <kdiggdy> does limewire work with amd 86_84 bit version?
[06:34] <Zombie> I want to make sure I get supported hardware.
[06:34] <ice_cream> teer2, np, gl
[06:34] <ircleuser> darkhack, can you explain here how to boot with pci=acpi and irqpoll?
[06:34] <ice_cream> compiling can get ugly at times, if you need to grab many different dependencies
[06:34] <wols> Zombie: http://www.linux-laptop.net/ and http://tuxmobil.org/
[06:34] <ircleuser> I'm sorry, I'm on a mac I don't know this IRC client :s
[06:34] <kdiggdy> anyone?
[06:34] <kdiggdy> p2p software?
[06:34] <wols> ice_cream: ever heard of apt-get build-dep?
[06:34] <PIPBoy_> can anyone explain to me what compiling your own kernel does for you, and if its not a stain explain how?
[06:35] <Darkhack> ircleuser, is Ubuntu installed to disk on the computer you speak of?
[06:35] <ircleuser> yes it is
[06:35] <ircleuser> it actually boots
[06:35] <ice_cream> wols, nope..
[06:35] <ircleuser> I just don't have neither Network nor USB
[06:35] <PF|Ubuntu> drivers?
[06:35] <wols> ice_cream: then you don't know why you are wrong I guess
[06:35] <ircleuser> And I have this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/ToshibaTecraA4
[06:35] <ircleuser> But I don't know how to do what is said
[06:36] <wols> ice_cream: press f6 and enter it on install
[06:36] <ice_cream> wols, ok, now i know what it is.. why am i wrong, and what does it have to do with compiling?
[06:36] <Darkhack> Do this "sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst" and then scroll down until you see a variable called "timeout".  Change the value from 0 to 10 and reboot and it will display GRUB instead of booting directly into Ubuntu.  Then you can append those commands at the bottom of the GRUB screen.
[06:36] <PF|Ubuntu> Im going to try and install Ubuntu on a Dell Inspiron 1501 tomorrow
[06:36] <wols> ircleuser: on boot rather
[06:36] <wols> ircleuser: read the docs
[06:36] <ice_cream> gg
[06:36] <ircleuser> wols: on boot...what? :$
[06:36] <wols> ircleuser: yes. wehn the CD boots
[06:36] <ircleuser> but I don't need to boot the CD
[06:36] <ircleuser> the system is installed alright
[06:37] <ice_cream> wols, but i dont know what you are smoking with 'press f6'
[06:37] <quaal> http://linux.slashdot.org/linux/07/06/22/151233.shtml
[06:37] <wols> ice_cream: that's for ircleuser and his boot parameters. sry
[06:37] <Darkhack> ircleuser: http://grumpymole.blogspot.com/2007/05/ubuntu-how-to-edit-grub-boot-parameters.html
[06:37] <Darkhack> Five second google search.
[06:38] <ircleuser> darkhack: got it
[06:38] <Monty_> hi - can anyone help me with a server question?
[06:38] <ircleuser> I'll test that and be right back
[06:38] <ircleuser> thank you
[06:38] <PF|Ubuntu> Monty_, just ask
[06:38] <wols> Darkhack: is ubuntu using grub on the install CD?
[06:38] <alteroo> reech
[06:38] <Monty_> is java installed with 7.04 server and how do i find it?
[06:38] <Darkhack> Yes.
[06:38] <DrkCodeman> anyone know of any application that supports MDS images?
[06:38] <wols> !java | Monty_
[06:38] <ubotu> Monty_: 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
[06:38] <ice_cream> wols, ok, sry, i misread it a bit; i guess the build-dep option can prove useful in finding those dependencies ;)
[06:39] <Monty_> cool - thank you!
[06:39] <Phydoux> Anybody know why my Ubuntu isnt coming up after I login? I get the login screen and I enter my username & PW but then the screen just stays orange...
[06:39] <PF|Ubuntu> Am I obsessive compulsive if I sudo apt-get upgrade on my server every single day?
[06:39] <NickNamed> helloall
[06:39] <Darkhack> wols: GRUB supports El Torito mode.
[06:39] <Phydoux> I'm thinking it may be a video driver problem with nvidia
[06:39] <wols> Phydoux: pastebin your Xorg.log perhaps. or install a different WM and try that
[06:39] <DrkCodeman> hmm anyone here able to help me pleae?
[06:39] <DrkCodeman> please
[06:39] <DrkCodeman> mds support for ubuntu
[06:40] <PF|Ubuntu> You said MD5 earlier
[06:40] <DrkCodeman> mds = cdimage
[06:40] <wols> Darkhack: no
[06:40] <wols> DrkCodeman: no
[06:40] <GeekMaster1> Hey all. I have a really quick question about my MAC adress. How do I find out whet my MAC address is on Ubuntu. I already did "ifconfig" I don't see it there. Unless I am missing something.
[06:40] <DrkCodeman> MDS = cd image secure
[06:40] <Darkhack> That wasn't a question.  >_>
[06:40] <DrkCodeman> i looked all over
[06:40] <PF|Ubuntu> GeekMaster1, right click on your connection and click Properties
[06:40] <wols> DrkCodeman: ubuntu doesn't need to deal with copy protections. different world
[06:40] <Phydoux> How do I install a different WM without being able to log in?
[06:40] <PF|Ubuntu> GeekMaster1, and then click on the Support tab
[06:40] <ircleuser> darkhack: irqpoll does not seem to be a valid grub boot option
[06:40] <DrkCodeman> i need a cdimage mounting tool...
[06:40] <wols> GeekMaster1: you are missing something
[06:41] <_olaf> !ntfs-3g
[06:41] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[06:41] <wols> GeekMaster1: HWAddr
[06:41] <PF|Ubuntu> GeekMaster1, the mac address is at the bottom of that tab
[06:41] <DrkCodeman> wobx, its a image file not protections
[06:41] <Darkhack> It is, but it may or may not work depending on your hardware.
[06:41] <kab00m> I want to assign an app to play audio streams.  Do I assign it to the actual executable or to the links listed under Gnome's Applications menu?
[06:41] <NickNamed> Is there any way to install ubuntu onto another HD from my currently-running ubuntu system?
[06:41] <megafauna> PF|Ubuntu konserve looks good. If I can get it write over files which have been altered while ignoring the rest I will have won. I really like that it is automatic, even windoze didn't have that.
[06:41] <wols> Darkhack: it's an ISO file developed to break copy protections by a closed source company. Ubunut doesn't support it
[06:41] <DrkCodeman> k3b doesnt have MDS support either
[06:41] <DrkCodeman> or even mdf
[06:41] <GeekMaster1> Oh ok
[06:41] <PF|Ubuntu> kab00m, right click the file, Properties, and choose Open With
[06:41] <_olaf> okay, how do i mount an NTFS drive properly
[06:42] <_olaf> once ntfs-3g is installed?
[06:42] <GeekMaster1> HWAddr. Simple enough
[06:42] <wols> !ntfs | _olaf
[06:42] <ubotu> _olaf: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[06:42] <ircleuser> darkhack, ok, is it really important?
[06:42] <GeekMaster1> Thanks guys
[06:42] <Darkhack> It depends on if you need it to boot or not.
[06:42] <LCCUB> What is a nice easy dvd burning util (I'll be doing mostly data discs)
[06:42] <PF|Ubuntu> Does anyone know how to get BOPM running?
[06:42] <Darkhack> If you are disabling ACPI, then typically you will want to do irqpoll.
[06:42] <wols> PF|Ubuntu: if you tell us what BOPM is?
[06:42] <PF|Ubuntu> wols, Blitzed Open Proxy Monitor
[06:43] <TheCougar> ok i just installed vm player and copied over a vm i had and the mouse won't work in it. any one have an idea?
[06:43] <Darkhack> I have no idea what wols is talking about... so yeah.
[06:43] <josue_____> hi
[06:43] <wols> PF|Ubuntu: what is the problem with it?
[06:43] <PF|Ubuntu> wols, it's for IRC networks
[06:43] <ircleuser> Darkhack: I am disabling (acpi=off), so I need IRQpoll, but Grub won't take it :s
[06:43] <PF|Ubuntu> wols, I cant get it to run
[06:43] <TheCougar> in fact the keyboard won't work either
[06:43] <kab00m> PF|Ubuntu, i know that, but I the app I want isn't listed so I'm trying to browse for the file to assign it to.
[06:43] <josue_____> do anyone know if ubuntu 7.10 is release
[06:43] <keithhhhh> Hi can someone put me on the path of fixing a prob with a new installation of Ubuntustudio...... After installing I get an error that says "Caught signal 11.  Server aborting."  any ideas??
[06:43] <ircleuser> darkhack: am I really that screwed? :p
[06:43] <wols> PF|Ubuntu: a bit more is needed. errors?
[06:43] <GeekMaster1> PF|Ubuntu: You have any idea how I can give my guest OS the same MAC address as my motherboard? I am unable to connect on the internet on my Virtual Machine as my college manually accepts EVERY MAC address. I was wondering if there was a way to give my guest OS the same MAC address as my MOBO for that reason.
[06:43] <PF|Ubuntu> wols, let me check the log

[06:44] <wols> keithhhhh: wrong channel
[06:44] <Darkhack> ircleuser: I don't know why it is not taking it.  should look like this without quotes,  "acpi=off irqpoll".  All lowercase.
[06:44] <keithhhhh> wols: what is the right channel do you know?
[06:44] <ircleuser> darkhack: ok but I don't think, I am putting it where it should

[06:45] <Darkhack> ircleuser: You append both of those options to the end of the "kernel" line.
[06:45] <ircleuser> darkhack, I'm on the grub 1.5 boot edition stuff
[06:45] <PF|Ubuntu> wols, I have a broken dir that I didnt assign correctly -_-
[06:45] <wols> PF|Ubuntu: no. you have a broken way asking for help. different thing
[06:45] <PF|Ubuntu> wols, lol >_>
[06:45] <GeekMaster1> wols: That sucks. But it's my VM and it's worked on a Bridged connection
[06:46] <wols> GeekMaster1: why not use NAT?
[06:46] <GeekMaster1> wols: I guess I will try that
[06:46] <ircleuser> darkhack: it's booting (thx man)...now, couple minute, I'll tell you about internet and the rest
[06:47] <Darkhack> ircleuser: Why is it that you needed these commands anyway.  Was it not detecting your hardware properly?
[06:47] <ircleuser> darkhack: problem solved. THK YOU :D
[06:47] <Darkhack> ircleuser: with acpi disabled you won't be able to use sleep mode.
[06:48] <ircleuser> darhack: I don't know, I'm converting a friend to Linux, he's got a Tecra A4, and apparently, there are some hardware issues on this computer
[06:48] <wols> ircleuser: a notebook without acpi will have a battery life of half an hour or so
[06:48] <detectiveinspekt> what think handles default programs in gnome?
[06:49] <ircleuser> wols: Actually, this one has no battery at all at the moment :p
[06:49] <Darkhack> wols: it isn't that bad, is it?  I don't use a laptop, but I thought ACPI only handles power for sleep mode, not during the actual processing, or am I wrong?
[06:50] <Darkhack> I'm pretty sure APIC is what does the actual CPU scaling for power when the CPU is active.
[06:51] <wols> Darkhack: it handles it always
[06:52] <wols> ad while the cpu can sleep in a way without it (while actualled used), it's much better with acpi
[06:52] <wols> I'd guess around an hour battery life without acpi
[06:52] <wols> for a centrino machine instead of 3-4
[06:52] <Darkhack> Ahh ok.  I learned something new.  =)
[06:53] <ranjan> hi i need some help mounting mp3 player
[06:53] <ranjan> model is pvr-h240 by mustek
[06:54] <MrOtacon> hey guys... has anyone managed to get a usb bluetooth dongle working? i got hcitools scan working and it finds the phone, but when i try to connect, it crashes
[06:54] <ranjan> ubuntu recognizes the player as mp3 storage
[06:54] <ranjan> but fails to mount it
[06:54] <Toma-> MrOtacon: i do
[06:54] <detectiveinspekt> ranjan know what filesystem type it is?
[06:54] <MrOtacon> Toma-: What did you use man?
[06:54] <Zombie> I need a good reccomendation for a decent, capable Linux Laptop in the ~$600 Range
[06:54] <Toma-> ranjan: some of those cheap mp3 players need a special utf setting set on mount. i know my crappy one did
[06:55] <Toma-> MrOtacon: i use the gnome tools
[06:55] <ranjan> unfortunately i have tried to find this info on the net and cannot find it
[06:55] <dan40>  I am having trouble with my /etc/fstab and setting up a windows share drive. It works but I keep getting prompted for my sudu password. I think I have the syntax wrong
[06:55] <Toma-> MrOtacon: gnome-bluetooth and nautilus-sendto packages are the bomb
[06:55] <Xenguy> Zombie: I bought a used Thinkpad recently for less than that
[06:55] <ranjan> toma: this piece of junk will also need it i guess any leads?
[06:55] <roho> !moodbar
[06:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about moodbar - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:55] <Zombie> New, I'd like some sort of (Hardware) warranty)
[06:55] <Xenguy> Zombie: hardware compatibility with linux is generally good
[06:55] <MrOtacon> Toma-: I'll take a look at them - i got the kde packages, but same ting occurs on connect - i'll check out the gnome ones now - thanks
[06:55] <Toma-> ranjan: hold on a moment :D
[06:56] <LGKeiz> moo: os: Microsoft Windows XP Professional - Service Pack 2 (5.1.2600) up: 14hrs 18mins 39secs cpu: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.00GHz at 1993MHz (100% Load) gfx: NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 4000 128MB res: 1024x768 16bit 60Hz ram: 853/1535MB (55.54%) [||||||----]  hdd: C:\ 59.43GB/111.76GB net: Wireless-G PCI Adapter with SRX400 - 108MB/s 651.59MB In 185.48MB Out
[06:56] <Xenguy> Zombie: good luck
[06:56] <Toma-> MrOtacon: oh, kde. nm you should have it all set already
[06:56] <ranjan> Toma: thanks
[06:56] <Toma-> MrOtacon: is your phone set to visible?
[06:56] <MrOtacon> Toma-: Im running gnome, but found the kde bluetooth so installed that and konqueror
[06:57] <Toma-> ranjan: actually, open a terminal and run dmesg after you plug the mp3 player in
[06:57] <MrOtacon> Toma-: Yeah, it finds the phone (k750i) - however, when i try to pair - my phone sends a passkey and that causes the bluetooth to crash
[06:57] <NickNamed> i'm wondering if i can install ubuntu onto another HD from my running system. any ideas?
[06:57] <Toma-> see if anything is special is said about it. and remember, dont paste in here!
[06:57] <Toma-> MrOtacon: ahh. you need to set the pinhelper i think
[06:58] <ranjan> its a PVR-2 device as per dmesg
[06:58] <MrOtacon> Toma-: Yeah, the installation guide i used mentioned that - but i couldn't find where to set it
[06:58] <Toma-> ranjan: nothing about the charset?
[06:58] <Toma-> MrOtacon: /etc/bluez/
[06:58] <Toma-> something...
[06:59] <MrOtacon> hci.conf?
[06:59] <Toma-> thats the one
[06:59] <Toma-> its in /etc/bluetooth
[06:59] <ranjan> unknown partition table
[06:59] <Toma-> ranjan: ahh.
[06:59] <MrOtacon> Toma-: What do i have to do once in there? pinhelper isn't listed in the file
[06:59] <Toma-> ranjan: sounds interesting. can you put all that info up on pastebin please?
[07:00] <Toma-> MrOtacon: i set my passkey manually via that file
[07:00] <ranjan> url for pastebin?
[07:00] <Monty_> ok - i added the multiverse to my sources list, did apt-get update and then tried apt-get  sub-java6-sdk and i keep getting package not found for both 6 and 5. what am i doing wrong?
[07:00] <Toma-> set it to "1234"
[07:00] <ranjan> !pastebin
[07:00] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[07:00] <Toma-> Monty_: try 'sun-java6-sdk'? :D
[07:01] <Toma-> Monty_: its jdk, not sdk
[07:01] <Monty_> yeah - i did "sun" :)
[07:01] <Monty_> ok - let me try that
[07:01] <Toma-> because java apparently isnt software
[07:01] <MrOtacon> Toma-: Ok - will give it a shot now, thanks
[07:01] <Monty_> d'oh! that works! thank  you!
[07:01] <Toma-> MrOtacon: cool. i think you may need to restart the bluez daemon aswell
[07:01] <ranjan> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26850/
[07:02] <Toma-> Monty_: np! :D
[07:02] <lo4fer> what's the best way of restarting your x-session? cntrl-alt-backspace for some reason terminates my x-session but gnome doesn't restart
[07:02] <Helmi> good morning
[07:02] <Music_Shuffle> Good evening.  :)
[07:02] <Helmi> i got a few problems with sssh-askpass / ssh-add - anyone here with experiences?
[07:03] <Monty_> has anyone heard of issues in trying to boot off the cd? i have an old dell laptop that when i try to boot off the 7.0.4 cd, it just sits there and churns away - sometimes i get to the desktop and sometimes i don't
[07:03] <Toma-> ranjan: i envy your CPU :D looks like its getting identified twice... how weird.
[07:03] <Monty_> even when i do, i usually can't do anything
[07:03] <MrOtacon> Toma-: Its still failing dude - but at least my phone is recognising my computer name now
[07:03] <ranjan> Toma: thanks for looking inti this... :)
[07:04] <dan40> this is the text of the line in my /etc/fstab that is giving me problems http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26851/plain/
[07:04] <dan40> if anyone can help
[07:05] <ranjan> Toma-: any idea?
[07:05] <Toma-> ranjan: can you run "sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdd" and tell me the 'type'?
[07:05] <cstrippie> Monty - I used to have probs with an old 8100 - would take forever to get to desktop.  Best bet is probably the alternate install cd
[07:05] <Toma-> MrOtacon: bummer :( im not very skilled in kde, yet. making the big switch on KDE4 :)
[07:05] <ranjan> Toma-: FAT16
[07:06] <Monty_> ok - i will try that - thank you!
[07:06] <MrOtacon> Toma-: Can you talk me through the gnome method?
[07:06] <Toma-> ranjan: and is it sdd1?
[07:06] <ranjan> Toma-: yep
[07:06] <Toma-> MrOtacon: yeh, if you have nautilus-sendto, you just right click and send
[07:07] <MrOtacon> Toma-: What about browsing files on the phone, cause thats what i am after really
[07:07] <ranjan> Toma-: Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary
[07:07] <Toma-> ranjan: ok, try "sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdd1 /media/disk" or some other location in media
[07:07] <Toma-> MrOtacon: ahh, cant do that on gnome
[07:07] <Toma-> MrOtacon: only in KDE, afaik
[07:08] <MrOtacon> Toma-: Ahhh - ok - thanks man
[07:08] <Toma-> ranjan: is there anything actually on this player yet?
[07:08] <ranjan> Toma-: yes
[07:08] <Toma-> MrOtacon: imho, KDE's bluetooth support is years ahead on gnome
[07:08] <ranjan> Toma-:  used my wifes windows machine to put one song in it
[07:08] <Toma-> ranjan: amazing. how you got anything on a shoddy partition is quite stunning :D
[07:08] <Toma-> ranjan: ahh. good ol windows.
[07:08] <MrOtacon> Toma-: Yeah, Thats what i figured looking at the feature comparison.... I just wish i knew how to config it
[07:09] <MrOtacon> Lolol
[07:09] <Toma-> MrOtacon: look into the kde control centre and have a poke around the bluetooth part
[07:09] <Toma-> ranjan: did it mount?
[07:10] <MrOtacon> Toma-: Im actually running gnome, will install the kde desktop now... Do you know what the package is called?
[07:10] <Toma-> MrOtacon: oh...
[07:10] <Toma-> MrOtacon: no idea :S
[07:10] <ranjan> Toma-: special device /dev/sdd1 does not exist
[07:10] <visor> hi
[07:10] <MrOtacon> Toma-: No worries dude... I'll find it - thanks for help
[07:10] <dan40> Can anyone help?
[07:11] <Music_Shuffle> MrOtacon, what package?  kubuntu-desktop?  >_>
[07:11] <Toma-> ranjan: its plugged in? and that fdisk command said it had a partition right?
[07:11] <Toma-> MrOtacon: np
[07:11] <ranjan> Toma-:  when i go to Computer it shows a device called PVR-2
[07:11] <Toma-> ranjan: can you open it?
[07:11] <ranjan> PVR-2 USB DEvice
[07:11] <MrOtacon> Music_Shuffle: Yeah dude - do i have to add it to source lists or something, cause its not in my lists
[07:11] <ranjan> trying to open it says cannot mount device
[07:11] <Music_Shuffle> MrOtacon, the package for what exactly, KDE in general?
[07:11] <visor> have you had trouble copyin files with UTF characters from a windows recorded cd in feisty?
[07:12] <ranjan> There is  probably no media in the drive - it goes on to say
[07:12] <MrOtacon> Music_Shuffle: I am trying to get my bluetooth working - i have installed konqueror and kdebluetooth but cannot get it configured properly with my phone
[07:12] <kiosk> there is lilke nobody in #xubuntu
[07:12] <Toma-> ranjan: thats our shoddy partition playing up again
[07:12] <MrOtacon> Music_Shuffle: Would you say the kde environment is better than the gnome?
[07:12] <Toma-> ranjan: might need to format this thing to get it working right
[07:12] <visor> someone burnt me a disc with a bunch of files and those files have tildes but they just dont appear as they should, they are displayed with the question mark little icon and nautilus complains when I try to copy them, do you have a work around for that?
[07:13] <pianoboy3333> what package allows you to view mov files
[07:13] <Music_Shuffle> Oh, I prefer it for some things, yeah.  Gnome for everyday usage though, it seems a little easier for the stuff I do anyhow.  I use them both interchangeably.
[07:13] <MrOtacon> pianoboy3333: get vlc media player dude
[07:13] <ranjan> Toma-: ok format on windows or linux?
[07:13] <pianoboy3333> MrOtacon: I have, it won't play
[07:13] <Toma-> ranjan: either.
[07:13] <nandoviski> where can i download of Cedega???
[07:13] <visor> and I know I should ask this person to burn it with nero or something but thats not posible right now :)
[07:13] <|Nihil|> Has anyone here had keyboared issues when using VNC to connect to a Feisty Fawn Gnome desktop?
[07:13] <Toma-> pianoboy3333: some sort of quicktime viewer
[07:14] <ranjan> Toma-:  its got a built in format feature, i tried that already
[07:14] <MrOtacon> pianoboy3333: there is a gstreamer plugin for totem that allows .mov decoding
[07:14] <JerseyMonkey> Hello: I have an Avermedia pcmcia tv tuner. I typed in 'lspci' and found this which seems to show up as the card. "04:00.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7133/SAA7135 Video Broadcast Decoder (rev 11)" Does this mean the tv tuner is installed correctly?
[07:14] <nandoviski> where can i download of Cedega???
[07:14] <Toma-> ranjan: thatll just clear the drive. like a big Delete button
[07:14] <Music_Shuffle> !cedega | nandoviski
[07:14] <ubotu> nandoviski: cedega is a project based on WINE, aimed at running Windows games on Linux. For more info, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cedega
[07:14] <ranjan> Toma-: my fear is that if i format the drive it may mess up the firmware?
[07:14] <Wiseguy> hey guys, is there anyway to make firefox minimize to the top right system tray where the volume control, network manager and clock reside?
[07:15] <bruenig> !info alltray
[07:15] <ubotu> alltray: Dock any program into the system tray. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.69-1 (feisty), package size 57 kB, installed size 224 kB
[07:15] <nandoviski> thx
[07:15] <visor> Wiseguy: dont think so....
[07:15] <Toma-> ranjan: i have concerns about that too. usually, 99% of the time, the firmware is on a ROM chip on the device
[07:15] <MrOtacon> nandoviski: also check out http://www.transgaming.com/ for more info
[07:15] <Toma-> ranjan: it would be madness to put firmware on the actual drive itself
[07:15] <nandoviski> MrOtacon, thx man
[07:15] <ranjan> Toma-: it doesn't fuking matter if it does not work as an mp3 player i'll just use it as a big storage device
[07:15] <Wiseguy> cool bruenig ill check it out
[07:15] <Toma-> :/
[07:15] <Toma-> !ohmy
[07:15] <bruenig> !thanks | Wiseguy
[07:15] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[07:15] <ubotu> Wiseguy: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[07:16] <MrOtacon> nandoviski: np - Music_Shuffle helped too :)
[07:16] <Music_Shuffle> :)
[07:16] <MrOtacon> Music_Shuffle: Would you recommend converting to kubuntu?
[07:16] <visor> ok could you tell me at least how to debug nautilus? I tried GDB but it looks like GDB looses the thread or something so I couldnt get any information, please
[07:16] <nandoviski> MrOtacon, yes... =) thx all.. hehe
[07:16] <ranjan> Toma-: ty i'll take the device to windows and format the freking drive. but what format?
[07:16] <Toma-> ranjan: fat16
[07:16] <moDumass> hi all, so i have GUI back, but no beryl
[07:16] <MrOtacon> nandoviski: :D
[07:16] <Music_Shuffle> MrOtacon, if you have the HDD space, I would honestly recommend having both on your PC, and just picking whichever you feel like any given day.  But I do recommend trying both out for like...a week or so each, and you'll know which suits you better.  ;)
[07:17] <ranjan> Toma-: thanks again for all your help really appreciate it!
[07:17] <bruenig> moDumass, gui just complicates things, go back to tty
[07:17] <Toma-> ranjan: np!
[07:17] <moDumass> beryl ruby is in the corner i can play with the settings but no 3g
[07:17] <bruenig> moDumass, #ubuntu-effects
[07:17] <JerseyMonkey> Would anyone be willing to help me troubleshoot my pcmcia tv tuner?
[07:17] <bruenig> !tvout

[07:17] <Exershio> can somebody help me? I'm having a really annoying problem with an intel 845G chipset
[07:17] <moDumass> than ks bruenig
[07:17] <Wiseguy> bruenig, cool, that works pretty slick
[07:17] <MISTERTibbs> JerseyMonkey, suggest u consult the myth tv wiki and see if they have chat or resources that could help u
[07:18] <MrOtacon> Music_Shuffle: Gotcha.... well - i got about 3gb spare on my ubuntu partition... TBH i am thinking of ditching XP conpletely - and reinstalling ubuntu on my 30GB drive... I've only been using it for 2 days and i am loving every second of it
[07:18] <JerseyMonkey> Mister: Do you have a url for that?
[07:18] <MrOtacon> Music_Shuffle: which repositories is kubuntu-desktop in? its not listed in my synaptic
[07:18] <MrOtacon> or apt-get

[07:19] <MrOtacon> :D
[07:19] <MISTERTibbs> MrOtacon, i just installed the KDBbase and kept ubuntu/gnome
[07:20] <bruenig> xfce is better than both, give that a shot too
[07:20] <Exershio> can somebody help me? I'm having a really annoying problem with an intel 845G chipset. I've tried both drivers, the new Intel one for Feisty, and the i810 driver, and both have parts of what I need working. With the i810 driver, direct rendering works and everything, but I can't choose my preferred resolution. With the new Intel one for Feisty, direct rendering does not work, but my resolution is available. Is there a driver or something I can do to get bot
[07:20] <visor> well thanks anyway
[07:20] <LCCUB> Does swiftfox make a noticable difference?
[07:20] <JerseyMonkey> Is Myth TV a 'mediacenter' style app?
[07:20] <Flannel> LCCUB: no
[07:20] <visor> I can see this channel has grow so much that it has become quite unhelpful
[07:20] <Flannel> LCCUB: and it's definately not worth the hassle.
[07:20] <MISTERTibbs> JerseyMonkey, no.  Myth is a home built linux personal tivo type setup.
[07:20] <LCCUB> k thanks, that's kinda the answer I was looking for Flannel lol
[07:21] <LCCUB> I just seem to have really slow performance with opera
[07:21] <LCCUB> and sometimes ff I guess
[07:21] <MrOtacon> MISTERTibbs: ok - thanks man... 433mb... damn - pretty big. lol - think i should dump my windows hdd and start from scratch
[07:21] <JerseyMonkey> MisterTibbs: Thankyou, going to check that out.
[07:21] <bruenig> visor, how long have you been coming to this channel?
[07:21] <MISTERTibbs> MrOtacon, i kept XP but only boot it up a couple times a week.  Ubuntu fits on about 10 G of space on my 60G hdd, so no problem
[07:22] <Zorlin> G'day - Ready to help
[07:23] <roho> !libvisual
[07:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about libvisual - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:23] <roho> anyone know what packages are necessary to get visualizations working on amarok?
[07:23] <MrOtacon> MISTERTibbs: Yeah... i only set 6gb when i partitioned... i'll install it as it is - and if i need the space later, i'll just reinstall... are there any tools like norton ghost for ubuntu? that will allow me to make a backup and roll it out on a different partition?
[07:23] <dan40> I am having a problem with my /etc/fstab config
[07:23] <JerseyMonkey> MISTERTibbs: Is MythTV capable of using component cable for me to play video games?
[07:23] <bruenig> MrOtacon, you can just compress your entire filesystem and then uncompress it
[07:24] <MISTERTibbs> MrOtacon, ghost for anon. browsing?  haven't seen it
[07:24] <MISTERTibbs> JerseyMonkey, I don't have that info, but I don't see how someone hasn't made that happen yet.
[07:24] <bruenig> MrOtacon, the only reason stupid stuff like ghost is needed for windows is because you can't copy certain windows files while they are in use which is not the same for linux
[07:24] <MrOtacon> bruenig: sigh... yeah - that'd work... i gotta start thinking outta the box - i forget how much control you have with linux
[07:25] <jscinoz> what was the pastebin url again?
[07:25] <MISTERTibbs> JerseyMonkey, FYI, also google linux/xbox.   some really cool work has been done
[07:25] <dan40> this is the text of the line in my /etc/fstab that is giving me problems http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26851/plain/
[07:25] <jscinoz> ah
[07:25] <MrOtacon> bruenig: i just have to change the mount point and reconfigure grub right?
[07:26] <bruenig> !backup | yeah move the data change fstab and grub, here are some more newb friendly I guess backup solutions MrOtacon
[07:26] <ubotu> yeah move the data change fstab and grub, here are some more newb friendly I guess backup solutions MrOtacon: 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
[07:26] <|Nihil|> Are people here succesfully using VNC with Gnome on Feisty?
[07:26] <dvda> exershio: you might be able to use the i810 and then edit xorg.conf to include your resolution
[07:26] <MrOtacon> bruenig: thanks
[07:27] <Exershio> dvda: I've tried 915resolution and EVERYTHING, there is no way to get my resolution working haha. Isn't there a way to get the new intel driver working with Direct Rendering? with 915resolution, it left my computer starting up with a black screen instead of the logon screen, rendering it useless.
[07:27] <zendo> Hi. I'm using Ubuntu 7.04 AMD64 version. Whenever I visit some java applet that needs to output sound "java_vm" ties /dev/dsp so no other app can use it, and if I terminate it, it will also terminate firefox. Is there a solution to this?
[07:28] <BaD_CrC> i need an opinion. i'm looking for a slim but decent looking window manager. i'm beginning to put together a small media server using a 1.2ghz cpu and 512mb of ram. any suggestions?
[07:29] <cstrippie> BaD_CrC: fluxbox
[07:29] <JerseyMonkey> MISTERTibs: How do I install MythTV?
[07:29] <bruenig> BaD_CrC, the usual suspects I suppose, fluxbox openbox icewm
[07:29] <dvda> exershio: not sure about that, just know that the xorg.conf thing worked when i didn't have the option to choose 1680x1050
[07:29] <vzduch> how about XFce?
[07:29] <MISTERTibbs> JerseyMonkey, just like that
[07:29] <BaD_CrC> ok, i'm just playing with a few ideas right now.
[07:30] <BaD_CrC> i have a iso of xubuntu
[07:30] <BaD_CrC> gonna see how many years it take to boot from the cd on that box
[07:30] <dan40> can anyone even see what I am typing?
[07:30] <MISTERTibbs> dan40, hi.   yste
[07:30] <ant-> dan40, no
[07:30] <BaD_CrC> dan40: i think so
[07:31] <BaD_CrC> dan40: maybe my eyes are playing games with me
[07:31] <wols> BaD_CrC: witht hat much ram it doesn't need to be slim
[07:31] <dan40> ok, I guess I was just being ignored then :(
[07:31] <BaD_CrC> wols: with a 1.2ghz celery cpu?
[07:31] <wols> and servers don't have GUIs either
[07:31] <Exershio> dvda: I just don't get how to solve this. The new intel driver for Feisty work fine with everything EXCEPT direct rendering. The old i810 driver works for direct rendering, but it won't let me choose my custom resolution. Why can't there be a driver that works with both?
[07:31] <ant-> dan40, maybe "overlooked" is a better adjective
[07:31] <wols> BaD_CrC: a WM takes no CPU and little RAM
[07:31] <|Nihil|> No one is here is aware of whether people are succesfully using VNC with Gnome on Feisty?
[07:32] <dan40> ant: perhaps
[07:32] <Overand> How 'safe' is the default install of exim?
[07:32] <wols> BaD_CrC: but again: you don't need a WM anyways
[07:32] <BaD_CrC> wols: i'm not going to use it solely as a server.
[07:32] <Overand> (this is on ubuntu-server, but that makes little difference in most cases)
[07:32] <zendo> Anyone please?
[07:32] <MISTERTibbs> JerseyMonkey, u find the Myth stuff ok??
[07:32] <MISTERTibbs> zendo, what??
[07:32] <hex__> hi there, i installed edgy a few months ago, and only today did a problem come up. when i play a video file in ANY medial player, the colors are off. However, if i open the file twice, one will have the colors off, and one will have it okay. has anything like that happened to anyone before? anyway to fix it?
[07:32] <zendo> MISTERTibbs: "Hi. I'm using Ubuntu 7.04 AMD64 version. Whenever I visit some java applet that needs to output sound "java_vm" ties /dev/dsp so no other app can use it, and if I terminate it, it will also terminate firefox. Is there a solution to this?"
[07:33] <JerseyMonkey> MISTERTibbs: I found the website, but I download the compressed file off their website, and i'm unsure if this has an installer. Is it possible I could install it through 'apt-get'? (Thankyou for your help.)
[07:33] <Flannel> Overand: exim or exim4?
[07:33] <BaD_CrC> hmmm, i have a couple ideas. i'll be right back.
[07:33] <MISTERTibbs> zendo, try synaptic first
[07:33] <sakiitram> hello, yesterday I asked about my system hangs often. Then many people suggested to try acpi=off, apic=off.  I tried them also, but still system hangs. What to do next?
[07:33] <Overand> Flannel: not sure actually
[07:33] <dan40> this is the text of the line in my /etc/fstab that is giving me problems http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26851/plain/
[07:34] <Overand> exim4 probably makes a ton more sense
[07:34] <zendo> MISTERTibbs: Tried what I know, I'm asking this because I dont know what else to look for
[07:34] <hex__> anyone?
[07:34] <MISTERTibbs> JerseyMonker, install info NOT on their site?  check their forums for additional info
[07:34] <Flannel> Overand: exim4 is the one you want (exim is obsolete).  And it's as secure as anything else.  It gets security updates and stuff.  https://help.ubuntu.com/6.06/ubuntu/serverguide/C/email-services.html
[07:35] <whyameye> I am using a not-so-well-maintained piece of software that uses python2.2 and python-wxgtk2.4. It won't run with newer versions of these packages and these older versions are not available in Feisty. Can I just download and install the older versions from dapper and expect them to work in Feisty?
[07:35] <MISTERTibbs> zendo, sorry.  over my head.  wish i could help
[07:35] <whyameye> !webdav
[07:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about webdav - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:35] <zendo> MISTERTibbs: never mind, thanks for the effort
[07:35] <wols> whyameye: if synaptic has no problems installing them they should work fine
[07:35] <Overand> Flannel: mostly I'm concerend aobut the default configuration - as in, is it going to act as an open relay, etc
[07:36] <whyameye> wols: so I would add the appropriate repos from the dapper repos on a feisty machine, and this is OK?
[07:36] <MISTERTibbs> zendo, query the ubuntu support forum as well
[07:36] <jscinoz> I'm having some trouble getting the game FretsOnFire to work under ubuntu, i get this error on running: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26852/ What is an appropriate solution to this?
[07:36] <Overand> seems *very* unlikely that it would be configured as such by default, but I fifugred I'd ask
[07:36] <zendo> MISTERTibbs: where is that?
[07:36] <MISTERTibbs> zendo, wait 1
[07:36] <Flannel> whyameye: depends on your definition of okay.
[07:37] <MISTERTibbs> zendo, http://www.ubuntu.com/support
[07:37] <sakiitram> _Ahti:  my Ubuntu system still hangs ever after setting parameter "acpi=off  apic=off" and I also tried them individually one by one too but problem still exist.
[07:37] <whyameye> Flannel: what are you saying?
[07:37] <Flannel> whyameye: the problem becomes when you need old and new versions side by side, because Ubuntu uses those for normal functioning.
[07:37] <zendo> MISTERTibbs: thanks, I'll try it :)
[07:38] <whyameye> Flannel: but you can have multiple versions of Python on all versions of ubuntu already. Just nothing as old as 2.2 on Feisty. It seems somehow the software is smart enough to choose the latest versions unless specified to do otherwise.
[07:38] <wols> whyameye: yes
[07:39] <Flannel> Overand: I'm not sure.  I can't image it's default is open relay.  You might try the debian package page: http://wiki.debian.org/PkgExim4
[07:39] <sakiitram> _Ahti: but an odd thing happened was when I set acpi=off, I did get nothing after entering usernamd and password.
[07:39] <sakiitram> anybody listening to my message?
[07:39] <sakiitram> if yes, please help?
[07:40] <wols> Overand: I imagine ubuntu uses the debian default config where exim4 is the default MTA: it's not an open relay there and I very much doubt it's in ubunut
[07:40] <wols> so unless you fsck it up, it will be fine
[07:40] <PIPBoy_> bye all
[07:41] <wols> in fact neither debian nor ubunut ships a default open relay
[07:42] <Overand> wols: apparently it's not only not an open relay, but it won't send mail to external mailservers period by default =] 
[07:43] <Overand> bleh - i guess i could point it to one of 'my isp's' mailservers
[07:43] <Overand> they all require auth, and I *am* my ISP, (I work for it)
[07:44] <MrOtacon> How do I change kde so that its double click to run stuff on the desktop, and how can i remove gnome? thanks
[07:45] <joe4444> is it possible to completely hide the only panel?
[07:45] <joe4444> in gnome
[07:46] <yknott> MrOtacon: one way is to run kpersonalizer
[07:46] <MISTERTibbs> joe4444, right click on panel > properties > autohide
[07:46] <cactusbin> hello
[07:46] <cactusbin> can anyone help me
[07:46] <bruenig> MrOtacon, removing gnome is tricky, I wrote a script at one point that would determine the differences between the meta packages and then remove the uniquely ubuntu-desktop stuff or kubuntu-desktop stuff depending on what you wanted which seemed to work but other than that, it will take some time
[07:46] <MISTERTibbs> cactusbin, hi
[07:46] <cactusbin> my message board post explains my predicament
[07:46] <cactusbin> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=481893

[07:46] <MrOtacon> brueniq: ahhh... i thought it would be straight forward - i will leave it until i am more capable when it comes to linux :)
[07:46] <MrOtacon> yknott: thanks man :)
[07:47] <joe4444> MISTERTibbs: that doesn't hide it completely... i'm talking about like the auto-hide for AWN, or simply getting rid of the panel all together
[07:47] <cactusbin> MISTERTibbs: can you help me?
[07:47] <MISTERTibbs> MrOtacon, google "clean kde menu for a script to isolate gnome/kde if u want to have the option of both

[07:47] <MrOtacon> ahh cool
[07:47] <DrkCodeman> is there any cd image software for ubuntu that supports every cd image?
[07:47] <Flannel> DrkCodeman: There's lots of CD image conversion software out there
[07:47] <cactusbin> MISTERTibbs: My wireless craps out while downloading via bittorrent
[07:48] <cactusbin> MISTERTibbs: I posted some dmesg stuff on the thread
[07:48] <MISTERTibbs> cactusbin, how about other than bittorent.
[07:48] <DrkCodeman> Flannel, ya conversion but you cant convert a secure cd image
[07:48] <DrkCodeman> and have it not break the binary
[07:48] <Flannel> DrkCodeman: what on earth is a secure CD image?  The data on the CD should remain the same, they're both images of the same CD.
[07:48] <cactusbin> MISTERTibbs: It works pretty well besides that, but I really need bittorrent for some things
[07:49] <cactusbin> MISTERTibbs: It's pretty much the only reason I dual boot...
[07:49] <DrkCodeman> Flannel, MDS is a secured cdimage
[07:49] <|Nihil|> cactus: look up traffic shaping routers maybe? could solve that issue
[07:49] <MISTERTibbs> cactusbin, sorry.  sounds like u got a reliable wireless wich is GREAT.  problem is with bittorent
[07:49] <cactusbin> |Nihil|: No, not the problem, works fine in winblows
[07:50] <cactusbin> MISTERTibbs: No, not the problem, works fine in windows
[07:50] <MISTERTibbs> cactusbin, wirelss works in ubuntu?
[07:50] <cactusbin> MISTERTibbs: Pretty much
[07:50] <MISTERTibbs> cactusbin, also, there a couple fo torrent options for ubuntu.  I'd try the alternatives
[07:51] <Flannel> !iso | DrkCodeman, there's an mdf conversion in there.
[07:51] <ubotu> DrkCodeman, there's an mdf conversion in there.: 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.

[07:51] <cactusbin> MISTERTibbs: I don't think it's the client, I've tried Deluge, BitComet, Azerus, and the official client
[07:51] <DrkCodeman> yeah thats mdf
[07:51] <DrkCodeman> i have mdf2iso
[07:51] <DrkCodeman> im talking about mds

[08:02] <vzduch> [08:00:57]  < moustafa> I can understanding well <-- obviously not, otherwise you'd get the point
[08:02] <whyameye> |Nihil|: from scratch
[08:03] <|Nihil|> Hm, interesting... which server did you have success with?

[08:03] <yknott> lkthomas: you can call the skype test account too
[08:03] <whyameye> |Nihil|: I just did <system><prefs><remote desktop>
[08:04] <lkthomas> yknott: I want to test video conference
[08:04] <lkthomas> vzduch: pm me your id please
[08:04] <vzduch> lkthomas: needs a certain amount of bandwidth to work correctly.. as for video, I don't know as I don't have a webcam
[08:04] <tucuna> yknott - thx! ok, cool.. hehe.. i did a mkfs.ext2 -c -c (double -c to perform red & write tests) and it went ok - does that suggest that HDD is ok - or could it still be twatted?
[08:04] <vzduch> lkthomas: no use for now, I don't have Skype installed atm
[08:04] <lkthomas> vzduch: well, as long as you could see my face, I could disconnect
[08:05] <whyameye> |Nihil|: then I ssh into the machine with -X -C -L 5900:localhost:5900 and I run vncviewer localhost on my local machine. Works like a charm. Fast.
[08:05] <lkthomas> grrr
[08:05] <vzduch> I removed the Automatix pkg as there is a new one on the Skype website
[08:05] <yknott> tucuna: i do not know about that, sorry
[08:05] <tucuna> no worries :)
[08:05] <yknott> vzduch: there is a skype.com repository as well
[08:06] <yo2k> whyameye: vnc version ?
[08:06] <yknott> tucuna: :D
[08:06] <vzduch> yknott: sources.list line?
[08:06] <yknott> vzduch: yes
[08:06] <vzduch> yknott: gimme :D
[08:06] <|Nihil|> why: Hrm, I'll try using that one... does that one start at boot, or just when you log in?
[08:06] <yknott> vzduch: deb     http://deb.opera.com/opera/                     etch    non-free
[08:06] <whyameye> yo2k: well the local machine is dapper so vncviewer is version 3.3.7
[08:06] <tucuna> vzduch: #skype
[08:06] <tucuna> deb http://download.skype.com/linux/repos/debian/ stable non-free
[08:06] <yknott> oops i meant that one, hehe
[08:07] <vzduch> yknott: does that work w/ Ubuntu?
[08:07] <yknott> vzduch: yes
[08:07] <whyameye> anybody here have experience with freebob and firewire audio?
[08:07] <yo2k> whyameye: thank's, did you remote another os ?
[08:07] <whyameye> yo2k: it works fine on my windows machine too using tightvnc
[08:08] <yo2k> whyameye: ok, i try that... thanks's...
[08:08] <whyameye> yo2k: and on the Mac using Chicken of the VNC...although with the Mac we get better results running the vncviewer locally on the remote host and passing it all through the X server instead.
[08:08] <yo2k> whyameye: use different port / same port on windows?
[08:09] <whyameye> yo2k: well I'm tunneling everything through ssh for security. 5900 for vnc and 22 for ssh.
[08:09] <|Nihil|> why: bizarre... I just tried that one and the keyboard problem is gone but the vnc is really, really slow compared to the others
[08:09] <whyameye> yo2k: so for example on the windows machine I log into the remote first with ssh using cygwin.
[08:10] <moustafa> Can nobody help me please? How can I download mp3's from flash ?
[08:10] <yo2k> whyameye: hummm... cygwin
[08:10] <moustafa> like hi5
[08:10] <whyameye> yo2k: if you have another ssh client, use that. Mine just happens to be in cygwin.
[08:10] <Overand> cygwin's default terminal (aka 'dos terminal window') is fairly bad
[08:11] <yo2k> whyameye: ok...
[08:11] <firebird619> How do I get the correct ranges for my monitor? It is connected via DVI and when I run ddcprobe | grep monitorrange, but it doesn't return anything. Doesn't that command work with DVI?
[08:11] <whyameye> Overand: yeah but it doesn't matter since I use it only to ssh into the other machine.
[08:11] <TheCougar> has any one used surgemail?
[08:11] <moustafa> How can I install real player , I already have it on my desktop
[08:11] <Memories> hello everyone
[08:12] <Overand> whyameye: that's generally what someone uses an SSH client for - my point being that you can't do a lot with the cygiwn term
[08:12] <Memories> i'm facing a lil prob where my pc freezes up (i checked my cpu to find tht its 99% used by scrolkeeper-update)
[08:12] <whyameye> moustafa: what version of ubuntu?
[08:12] <Overand> like resize the terminal etc
[08:12] <moustafa> 7.4
[08:13] <MrOtacon> hey guys... i just totally screwed up my system :) - like i thought i would... Im stuck in bitchx in terminal now

[08:13] <MrOtacon> anyone know how to forceably remove a directory on a hdd?
[08:13] <vzduch> I still wonder where Skype stores things such as user account data
[08:13] <MrOtacon> i am trying to delete my windows and program files folders, but some files are refusing to delete
[08:13] <whyameye> MrOtacon: you can remove anything with rm -rf
[08:14] <MrOtacon> whyameye even directories?
[08:14] <whyameye> MrOtacon: yep
[08:14] <deaden> of course
[08:14] <MrOtacon> thanks
[08:14] <deaden> try rm -rf /
[08:14] <deaden> hehe
[08:14] <MrOtacon> lolol
[08:14] <vzduch> MrOtacon: why would you do that anyway?
[08:15] <vzduch> if you want to remove your Windoze installation, just wipe the partition it's on..
[08:15] <QwertyM> moving to /dev/null's cool too
[08:15] <MrOtacon> i pretty much just did that :P - cant start x anymore... gonna remove windows and reinstall on thatpartition - just dont wanna lose my my documents :)
[08:15] <deaden> yeah, useful for redirecting stderr
[08:15] <yo2k> rm -rf / = dead ?
[08:15] <Flannel> deaden: that sort of thing will get you banned.
[08:15] <deaden> also
[08:15] <kooz> how do I get to #alsa/Freenode?
[08:15] <MrOtacon> yeah yo2k - it removes your filesystem :)
[08:15] <QwertyM> /join #alsa
[08:15] <MISTERTibbs>  MrOtacon you know, a little knowledge is more dangerous true expertise.  proceed with caution
[08:15] <Flannel> kooz: you'recurrently on freenode, so /join #alsa
[08:15] <deaden> though so, won't happen again
[08:16] <MrOtacon> MISTERTibbs yeah - your right... but i gotta learn the hard way :)
[08:16] <MrOtacon> be back soon hopefully

[08:17] <Flannel> whyameye: right click.  But don't paste in the channel, use pastebin.
[08:17] <MrOtacon> ok guys... just tried the rm -rf command and it said operation not supported on one of the windows folders... is there another way without a full format of drive?
[08:18] <Flannel> MrOtacon: Ah.  Windows.
[08:18] <Flannel> !ntfs-3g | MrOtacon
[08:18] <ubotu> MrOtacon: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[08:18] <vzduch> MrOtacon: what exactly are you doing anyway?
[08:18] <whyameye> Flannel: that isn't working. I want to take text from somewhere else and paste it into a putty window.
[08:18] <MrOtacon> Flannel: yeah dude - i am already mounted with ntfs-3g... and have editted the fstab so i have read/write capabillities on the drive
[08:18] <MrOtacon> but it wont let me remove the windows folder
[08:18] <whyameye> Flannel: is there a better ssh client anyway?
[08:19] <juan278> i seam to resolve fine then cut off, for example apt-gets only sometimes work? actiontec devices?
[08:19] <vzduch> MrOtacon: if you want to keep your Windoze documents, then cp /$windows/$C/Documents and Settings/$YourUserName/* to somewhere safe and erase the partition
[08:19] <MrOtacon> vzduch thanks man... i would - but i dont have the space... my my documents folder is full of videos and is currently 22GB
[08:19] <Flannel> whyameye: putty pastes on right click, by default.  Check your settings to see if you've changed it.  In settings, Window > Configuration, there's mouse options
[08:20] <whyameye> Flannel: it's the middle mouse button on my machine to paste.
[08:20] <zouzou85> hi all
[08:20] <Mod_Man> I have a question about adding screen resolutions using the open source ati drivers.  1024x768 is to low a res and i want to increase the max res but i can't install the closed drivers because it will mess up berly.  So my question is; is it safe to add the resolutions manualy?
[08:20] <vzduch> MrOtacon: go buy some DVD blanks & burn 'em away :D
[08:20] <MrOtacon> vzduch: lolol :D
[08:20] <Mod_Man> "beryl"
[08:21] <zouzou85> guys, how do you change the splash screen (not grubs)?
[08:21] <MrOtacon> vzduch: is ther eno other way to remove the directory then... i don't understand why
[08:21] <vzduch> hmm.. I have no idea
[08:21] <JerseyMonkey> Hello, I installed TvTime. It has a black background when I turn it on. (Blue if the pcmcia card is not in the slot.) So, it detects the card, but i'm unsure how to get it to read the component cable.
[08:21] <deaden> what splash screen if not grubs? kde? gnome?
[08:22] <romain> hello guys
[08:22] <romain> does anybody know if there is any channel dedicated to beryl?
[08:22] <|Nihil|> dead: he probably means gdm
[08:22] <Steffen> anyone here knows how to setup an ipsec based vpn client to connect to a windows server ?
[08:23] <OmegaCenti> #beryl
[08:23] <zouzou85> deaden, gdm
[08:24] <deaden> i don't know off hand probably in the config, perhaps try: man gdm, google.com -> gdm splash image
[08:24] <whyameye> Steffen: is this cisco?
[08:24] <zouzou85> ok thanx
[08:24] <JerseyMonkey> I have a pcmcia AverMedia tv tuner. How can I tell if drivers are installed for it?
[08:25] <matux> how do I start the gdmsetup tool from the console?
[08:25] <Steffen> whyameye: Well I guess the protocol is like the cisco one, but it's just a Windows 2003 server setup as VPN server
[08:25] <deaden> not familiar with that
[08:26] <whyameye> Steffen: sorry I guess I don't know. I use vpn to log into a Cisco server. Spent forever trying to get it to work until I used the Cisco binary and it just worked immediately.
[08:27] <Steffen> whyameye: Ok, still thanks for trying :-) I'm getting KVpnc from Synaptic now, maybe that will work
[08:28] <vzduch> Steffen: university network or something?
[08:28] <whyameye> matux: do you have a way to start the gfmsetup tool from Gnome?
[08:28] <vzduch> wtf? gnome-commander just crashed on me..
[08:29] <Steffen> vzduch: Actually it's at work, but the software house I work at is VERY Microsoft orientated, thus only me and two others knows how to boot a linux CD (and that's about all we know too :D)
[08:29] <vzduch> o0
[08:29] <KiPSeRoN> someone can help i delete my kubuntu now and install ubntu and all the windows here no have borders
[08:29] <KiPSeRoN> ?
[08:30] <matux> whyameye: the issue is that I have remove privileges to this user to run configuration tools, so I want to start it from the console to install login Managers from Gnome Art
[08:30] <vzduch> KiPSeRoN: where's the problem?
[08:30] <KiPSeRoN> i cant see the border where is the x key and
[08:30] <KiPSeRoN> i cant move the window
[08:30] <Steffen> KiPSeRoN: Try pressing ALT+F2 and type in metacity, press "Run" - Gnome has a tendency towards that problem I heard.
[08:30] <whyameye> matux: if it is in a menu in gnome, drag the item to the desktop from the menu, right-click and select "properties" to find out the command associated with the icon
[08:31] <KiPSeRoN> what
[08:31] <KiPSeRoN> click alt F2
[08:31] <KiPSeRoN> and do what
[08:31] <Steffen> type in "metacity" without the "
[08:31] <Steffen> then press run
[08:32] <KiPSeRoN> now its good
[08:32] <KiPSeRoN> but
[08:32] <KiPSeRoN> but when i restart
[08:32] <KiPSeRoN> its still good
[08:32] <KiPSeRoN> ?
[08:32] <KiPSeRoN> i try sec
[08:33] <alexius> yap
[08:33] <Tungsten-[IHC] > ok
[08:33] <alexius> hi tugnsten
[08:33] <Tungsten-[IHC] > hi
[08:33] <linux_user400354> anyone got doom 3 in ubuntu?
[08:34] <KiPSeRoN> listen its fix it when i type metacity
[08:34] <KiPSeRoN> but when i do restart
[08:34] <KiPSeRoN> its goes back to the no border
[08:35] <scotty> I run Ubuntu feisty with kubuntu-desktop installed as well. For some reason, whenever I have a list (for instance, a username list on konversation or kopete, or anything, really), every other list item's background color is blue. It didn't use to be that way ...
[08:35] <scotty> It's like that with both a KDE and Gnome session
[08:36] <PIPBoy_> can anyone tell me what compiling a kernel is and what the purpose?
[08:36] <Steffen> scotty: I don't know that problem, but have you tried reselecting your theme - then check if it's fixed, then re-login and check if it's still fixed (assuming it was fixed in the first place)
[08:36] <Frogzoo> !kernel
[08:36] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[08:37] <vzduch> anyone here has Gnome-Commander _and_ Flash player installed? you could assist me w/ some reassurance.. if I search for something (I guess it doesn't matter what) in my ~, when it comes to searching ~/.macromedia/, gnome-commander segfaults
[08:37] <scotty> Steffen: I'm running the default on both sessions (Human and Kubuntu's default)
[08:37] <moustafa> Can nobody help me? I have got RealPlayer10-5GOLD.exe & realplay-10.1.0.3239-linux-2.2-libc6-gcc32-i586.bin on my desktop
[08:37] <vzduch> could somebody confirm this behaviour?
[08:37] <moustafa> What can i do to install them?
[08:37] <vzduch> moustafa: the .exe is a Windows binary
[08:37] <vzduch> you don't want that
[08:37] <KiPSeRoN> so you can answer to me how i set it up
[08:37] <moustafa> ok
[08:37] <KiPSeRoN> ?
[08:37] <Steffen> scotty: Ok, try selecting another one and then the default one again, somehow I think it's gotten a bit messed up. But like I said, it's not something I know, it's merely a wild shot
[08:37] <moustafa> i work on linux
[08:38] <scotty> Steffen: I've tried that, to no avail.
[08:38] <Steffen> KiPSeRoN: Hi again, did you just do a clean install of Ubuntu or how did you remove Kubuntu ?
[08:38] <KiPSeRoN> i remove
[08:38] <KiPSeRoN> it from terminal
[08:38] <vzduch> the .bin is a shell script.. there should be instructions where you downloaded it from
[08:38] <Steffen> scotty: Ok, too bad really - I'm out of ideas then
[08:38] <KiPSeRoN> and then i install
[08:38] <moustafa> How can I install realplay-10.1.0.3239-linux-2.2-libc6-gcc32-i586.bin?
[08:38] <KiPSeRoN> ubuntu-desktop
[08:38] <Steffen> KiPSeRoN: like apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop ?
[08:38] <KiPSeRoN> yes
[08:38] <MISTERTibbs>   moustafa http://www.osnews.com/story.php/8064/Test-Driving-RealPlayer-10-for-Linux/
[08:38] <KiPSeRoN> somthing like that
[08:39] <Gnea> moustafa: http://www.ubuntux.org/how-to-install-the-realplayer-multimedia-player
[08:39] <moustafa> Thank you man
[08:39] <moustafa> Thanks alot
[08:39] <KiPSeRoN> steffen do you have any idea
[08:39] <KiPSeRoN> ?
[08:39] <PIPBoy_> is there a way to get quicktime to work in firefox on ubuntu?
[08:40] <Steffen> KiPSeRoN: If you startup Synaptic (System -> Administration -> Synaptic) and first do an update of the list, then search for ubuntu-desktop and click it, select "mark for reinstall" - then press apply
[08:40] <lukego> I'm running the latest Ubuntu in Parallels on OSX. I installed and setup everything very nicely but now it's hanging during boot: "* Loading manual drivers..." "[..]  fuse init" and now stuckage. any tips?
[08:40] <xbye> How do I get nautilus to set the working directory when I open a file by double-clicking? I have it set up to open VIM but I can't load another file in the same directory without specifying the entire path.
[08:41] <Steffen> PIPBoy_: If you download and try to play a .mov file I believe Totem will automatically offer to search for a proper codec - I do however not know if it'll actually find one.
[08:43] <vzduch> ah, it's a known bug.. --> http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=421857
[08:44] <KiPSeRoN> steffen
[08:44] <KiPSeRoN> its dont help to me
[08:44] <Steffen> KiPSeRoN: Hummm that's a bit annoying really :-) Hold on a sec
[08:44] <Memories> hello everyone
[08:45] <Memories> i'm facing problems upgrading from edgy to feisty
[08:45] <xbye> anyone know how to get nautilus to set the working directory when opening files?
[08:46] <bruenig> xbye, nautilus /path/to/where/you/want
[08:46] <wolfalfa> if anyone could help. I installed Netbeans5.5 but I'm getting stuck at the license agreement screen. Any help is welcome
[08:46] <erat123> I just installed ubuntu on my system along w/ windows and fedora.  Ubuntu was on a different hd.  now grub is on the wrong hd.  how can i move grub back where it was?
[08:46] <bruenig> wolfalfa, tab
[08:46] <xbye> bruenig: i'm trying to get it so when I double-click a file, the application is launched with a working directory set, instead of set to the home dir
[08:47] <burnerx> how do i get QtRuby in ubuntu
[08:47] <burnerx> amarok needs it
[08:47] <wolfalfa> bruenig: tab?
[08:47] <jussi01> !grub | erat123
[08:47] <ubotu> erat123: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[08:47] <bruenig> wolfalfa, yeah it's that button above caps lock
[08:47] <wolfalfa> bruenig: the window is showing up blank. I know what tab is thanks (=
[08:47] <bruenig> showing up blank? how are you installing it?
[08:48] <SurfnKid> hi guys i know ive asked this before
[08:48] <SurfnKid> but does ubuntu support parallel processing for Core Duo processors?
[08:48] <deaden> type grub as root then type setup (hd0,0) wherever your /etc/grub is
[08:48] <bruenig> SurfnKid, should, arch supports it and arch is a do it yourself sort of thing
[08:48] <DrStrangeLov> whats the 'fallback' font gnome uses if i select a font for which locale/language isnt enabled?
[08:48] <Steffen> KiPSeRoN: You can try manually asking it to startup metacity during boot, it's not the way it *should* work, however it'll most likely solve your problem here and now. Otherwise you'll have to ask more experienced guys for help
[08:48] <wolfalfa> bruenig: tried simple apt-get, synaptic, and now automatix
[08:48] <SurfnKid> ok wicked
[08:48] <bruenig> !automatix | wolfalfa
[08:48] <ubotu> wolfalfa: 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
[08:49] <PIPBoy_> how do you go about installing .jar platform files?
[08:49] <bruenig> PIPBoy_, you run them I believe
[08:49] <OmegaCenti> Any other sites like tldp.org? I am trying to learn as much as possible.
[08:50] <bruenig> PIPBoy_, I don't have java installed right now, it is java -jar whatever.jar or something like that
[08:50] <wolfalfa> bruenig: automatix was the last shot. it didn't work before that
[08:50] <Madpilot> PIPBoy_, I think the syntax thru the command line is "java -jar name_of_jar.jar" or similar
[08:50] <DrStrangeLov> OmegaCenti, just don't bite more than you can chew. cause there's a huge chunk of the www dedicated to just that- documentation.
[08:50] <domas> hi! is ubuntu 7.04 supposed not to detect CD-ROM in parallels 2.5?
[08:50] <NaNO2x> hey i'm trying to get my computer to read an extern hd, it pops up the window saying something is there but won't seem to locate or mount it
[08:50] <OmegaCenti> DrStrangeLov: Right now I am not biting enough, and so far I haven't found solutions to my problems...
 can dmesg see it
[08:51] <bruenig> wolfalfa, it should be fine in terminal, the license thing is created by the preinst script, so if you must get the deb and open it up and check the preinst script to see if there is an issue or a way to hack around it
[08:51] <NaNO2x> command?
[08:51] <DrStrangeLov> oh, what exactly are you trying to read upon? shell programming? perl?
[08:51] <Madpilot> PIPBoy_, I've asked you before about PMing without asking first - it's considered impolite. Please stop it.
 ya
[08:52] <NaNO2x> fdisk -l wasn't finding it
[08:52] <OmegaCenti> DrStrangeLov: Sound, modules, recompiling kernals, modprobe, mod info, information on certain modules, acpi, suspend, hibernation, terminal fonts (tty0-6)
[08:52] <PIPBoy_> sorry mad, i didnt realize that i was pming, i thought it was a "whisper"
[08:52] <NaNO2x> whats the command for dmesg it?
[08:52] <bruenig> NaNO2x, plug it in and do "dmesg"
[08:52] <bruenig> NaNO2x, wait a bit, it should give it a name
[08:52] <DrStrangeLov> OmegaCenti, if you can get your hands on o'reilly linux bookshelf it'll be a start. although i don't know whether thats available for download.
[08:53] <SurfnKid> bruenig: im running ubuntu on a single core (Dothan 1.8) if I slap that hdd onto a Core Duo, will the booting pick up the CPU as intel Core Duo, or will it not, and maybe I have to probe the kernel by doing a fresh installation, whatd do you think?
[08:53] <OmegaCenti> DrStrangeLov: Hmmm not sure.
[08:53] <Madpilot> PIPBoy_, you do know about tab-complete, right? And the fact that any IRC client will highlight the use of someone's nick in a channel? No need to PM to get someone's attention...
[08:53] <PIPBoy_> is there a specific way to update java or install it? im running 1.4.2 and i need 1.5
[08:54] <vzduch> m00
[08:54] <NaNO2x> 0what comes up is a new medium detected, what do you want to do then it says medium type unmounted removable medium
dmesg
[08:54] <PIPBoy_> Madpilot, oh i didnt know that thanks for the tip
[08:54] <bruenig> SurfnKid, don't know, I think in theory it should be ok for processor change, now if you are changing monitory or graphics or something like that, you would run into issues, but if all else is the same and just a new processor it should be ok
[08:54] <NaNO2x> ok in the dmesg what should i grep?
[08:54] <domas> yay, setting OS as Solaris10 instead of Linux worked
[08:54] <bruenig> NaNO2x, it should show up on the bottom few lines
[08:54] <bruenig> NaNO2x, just look for it to show that it sees something and that it names it something like sdb
 the name of the hd
[08:54] <supremesonic> naN02x, you could also use tail.
[08:55] <supremesonic> !tail
[08:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tail - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:55] <bruenig> tail is pointless
 or just do | less
[08:55] <supremesonic> tail is a sweetie
[08:55] <SurfnKid> bruenig: ok yes some other things would change, but I'll give it a shot, eventually I'll have to reinstall, since the HDD is an ATA and the Duo Core HDD is a SATA :/ so wont work
[08:55] <bruenig> if you just need the past few lines, dmesg it and look at the past few lines
[08:55] <RivaeAerya> does anybody know how to set a website as wallpaper?
[08:55] <RivaeAerya> i want to set Netvibes as wallpaper, so i don't have to open my browser for that.
[08:55] <Steffen> does anyone know of a way to find packages no longer in use ?
[08:55] <Steffen> I've used Synaptic for every install job, and the history of everything is there. I was hoping it could detect dependencies no longer in use - but haven't found an option to do so.
[08:55] <NaNO2x> whats a pastebin i can use?
[08:55] <domas> run a browser with --root :)
[08:55] <Steffen> whoops sorry for double post
[08:56] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, yeah I don't see that happening
[08:56] <RivaeAerya> domas: firefox, too?
[08:56] <supremesonic> !pastebin | nan02x
[08:56] <ubotu> nan02x: 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)
[08:56] <xbye> i'm still trying to figure out how to make nautilus LAUNCH applications with working directory set to the path of the file being opened. this is when I -doubleclick- a file. how can I do this?
[08:56] <domas> RivaeAerya: I'm not sure links would be clickable, but there were some arguments for that
[08:56] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, what is going to render the website?
[08:56] <domas> do note, my linux desktop knowledge is like... 10 years old :)
[08:56] <toddy> sometimes i can't type letters in!who knows why!
[08:57] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: i don't know.... Gecko?
[08:57] <RivaeAerya> domas: --root doesn't seem to work
[08:57] <domas> whatever other argument
[08:57] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, right but how do you get it to render it and put it on the desktop such that it could be linked
[08:57] <starz> ok great question i hope :D   how can i setup a shell that can: 1. jail user to a dir 2. when they try to run a process it only allows a whitelist instead of a blacklist  preferably 2. checked against a config file somewhere
[08:57] <bruenig> such that you could click links
[08:57] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: well, just a gecko frame?
[08:58] <RivaeAerya> it would also eliminate the need for desktop widgets, netvibes as wallpaper
[08:58] <bruenig> don't know that there really is a "need" for desktop widgets
[08:59] <|Nihil|> starz: the second part should be accomplishable by setting $PATH to a directory that you've filled with links to your whitelisted applications and removing all other applications from the path
[08:59] <OmegaCenti> Looking for information on:Sound, modules, recompiling kernals, modprobe, mod info, information on certain modules, acpi, suspend, hibernation, terminal fonts (tty0-6). I have already checked out tldp.org. if there are others sites please let me know
[08:59] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: it's a RSS aggregator, a notebook, an office, an MSN client (meebo is integrated), and lots more.. try it out if you haven't already
[08:59] <Gnea> starz: install grsecurity
[08:59] <Gnea> starz: http://www.cryptocity.net/blog/2007/05/16/installing-grsecurity-on-ubuntu-feisty-704/
[08:59] <starz> Gnea, kay i'll try locally and play and thanx |Nihil|
[08:59] <NaNO2x> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26853/
[09:00] <domas> argh, install stalled
[09:00] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, have, it is a waste really, google homepage is better suited
[09:00] <JerseyMonkey> How can I tell if my Avermedia pcmcia tv tuner card is installed correctly?
[09:00] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: i find netvibes better. it doesn't want me to open lots of new windows for simple tasks.
[09:00] <bruenig> why would you need an office? what do you mean an office? like word processor?
[09:00] <PIPBoy_> i need to update java apparently to 1.5 do i want to download the .bin or the RPM?
[09:01] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: err, notes, todo's...
[09:01] <bruenig> PIPBoy_, not rpm
[09:01] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, so then what is the notebook?
[09:01] <wols> PIPBoy_: neither
[09:01] <wols> !java | PIPBoy_
[09:01] <ubotu> PIPBoy_: 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
 Maxtor 6  Model: Y250P0
[09:01] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: just little sticky notes you can put on the page. and it has tabs
[09:01] <PIPBoy_> wols, why neither/
[09:01] <wols> PIPBoy_: and remove gcj 1.4.2 first
[09:01] <wols> cause it's in ubuntu
[09:01] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, so when you said it is a notebook, and then said it is an office, those two things were referring to the exact same feature?
[09:01] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, google has tabs and sticky note too by the way
[09:01] <PIPBoy_> wols, from synaptic?
[09:02] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: office can be integrated if you put the 'AnyUrl' widget inside your page and point it to http://www.zoho.com or something of your liking
[09:02] <NaNO2x> right so whats that tell me?>
[09:02] <wols> PIPBoy_: ubotu told you something. READ it
 are you talking to me??
[09:02] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, you can link to zoho.com on google too
[09:02] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, or you can fire up a real word processor
[09:02] <OmegaCenti> Suspend doesn't work, hibernate just shutsdown the computer, and the sound works, I am just trying to understand why my startup sound sounds so friggin awful.
[09:02] <ryan__> hey how do you find a programs folder in the file system in ubuntu?
[09:03] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: wait, let me give you an example of how i use netvibes
[09:03] <Gnea> NaNO2x: so... you've got a sata system with an external maxtor drive attached to a usb port... what's the problem?
[09:03] <NaNO2x> aye
[09:03] <bruenig> ryan__, your conception of what the filesystem is is off
[09:03] <ryan__> Im trying to find where amule saves the files I downloaded
[09:03] <NaNO2x> it wont load
[09:03] <NaNO2x> or locate itself
[09:03] <wols> ryan__: what kind of program folder?
[09:03] <NaNO2x> no where to be found in /media
 are you talking to me??
[09:03] <JerseyMonkey> How can I tell if my Avermedia pcmcia tv tuner card is installed correctly? How can I tell if the driver is installed?
[09:03] <Gnea> what about in /etc/fstab?
[09:03] <Flannel> ryan__: programs don't really have folders.  The different components are spread out in different parts of the filesystem.
[09:03] <starz> ogawd
[09:03] <Madpilot> ryan__, have you checked amule's config?
[09:03] <NaNO2x> talking to anyone who will help :P
[09:03] <wols> JerseyMonkey: lsmod and dmesg
[09:03] <starz> so i gotta compile ;_;
[09:03] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, I have used netvibes, what the hell is the point of spending your time doing things in a browser other than browsing. Why would you need to word process, I have a word processor. Or have an IM client, I have an IM client, just slap a text editor on it and call it emacs
[09:03] <ryan__> yea doesnt give me any info
[09:03] <Gnea> starz: yup.
[09:04] <ryan__> its a piece of #@#$
[09:04] <starz> gotta wait to boot till someone is physically there in case of panic i guess then
[09:04] <ryan__> its the first place I checked
[09:04] <Flannel> ryan__: it's somewhere in your home folder, guaranteed.
 i usually only see if someone asks direct questions
[09:04] <starz> remote server lol
[09:04] <NaNO2x> what should i look for in fstab
[09:04] <NaNO2x> k
 are you talking to me??
[09:04] <NaNO2x> its not in there
[09:04] <ryan__> hmm not there
[09:04] <Gnea> ryan__: echo $PATH, they're usually kept in a bin directory, like /bin and /usr/bin
 then say my name
[09:04] <bruenig> ryan__, probably ~/.amule or something
[09:04] <NaNO2x> at the moment i'm talking to gnea
[09:04] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: i use netvibes as my searching engine, i use it to write tiny notes for things that are unimportant that i have to remember, i check my feeds there, i use MSN there via Meebo, I check my gmail there, and my del.icio.us, I use box.net file storage there, I integrated the 'tabber' address book with Netvibes, so i can view my contacts there. And it shows a nice slideshow of nature photos from Flickr
[09:05] <NaNO2x> anyway, did you get the post there insmod?
[09:05] <bruenig> Gnea, amule is not going to save files in any other place than the home directory
[09:05] <ryan__> kk Im checking
[09:05] <starz> this is looking a little familiar tho
[09:05] <Gnea> bruenig: i'm sorry, your problem is what?
[09:05] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, Pidgin, and all the other features exist in google homepage
[09:05] <starz> i was researching hardening a while back
 ga  db: assuming drive cache: write through [17242096.148000]   sdb: sdb1   -- that is the dev adress make dir and mount it
[09:06] <bruenig> Gnea, wasn't he asking where amule saved files?
[09:06] <domas> damnit, ubuntuserver install stalls at 32-35%
[09:06] <Gnea> bruenig: was he?
[09:06] <Flannel> domas: did you check the CD for defects?
[09:06] <domas> haaa, resumed, probably disk image was increased
[09:06] <domas> Flannel: its .iso on parallels :)
 it's all there if you can't find a hard drive there are problems
[09:06] <NaNO2x> ok and what filesystem can you tell insmod?
[09:06] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: pidgin isn't in the repos yet. Meebo is usable EVERYWHERE a browser is available, so i can msn on school and other places. google homepages wants me to open too much windows, and doesn't exactly have the widgets I need.
 what is on it
[09:06] <Gnea> NaNO2x: you could try: mkdir /mnt/mountpoint && mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/mountpoint
[09:06] <NaNO2x> all sorts of files
[09:07] <SurfnKid> does anyone own an inspiron ?
[09:07] <domas> Flannel: though your advice would have worked fine back in '96 ;-)
[09:07] <NaNO2x> i've only used it with xp so far
[09:07] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: and, i have 3 gmails on google, one for personal, one for spam messages, and one for making money
 filesystem
[09:07] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, gaim == pidgin
[09:07] <domas> everybody would borrow linux CDs from me, and eventually they'd end up unreadable :)
[09:07] <Flannel> domas: eh.  It's still plenty good nowadays.  Lots of people burn at 40x for some reason.
[09:07] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: so it doesn't really help if i login into one of those and i see another page
[09:07] <NaNO2x> unsure insmod
[09:07] <Gnea> SurfnKid: many people do. what's up?
[09:07] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, I guess if you are from the emacs school of software use, then more power too you, seems rather pointless
[09:08] <domas> I should collect my old linux CDs some day
 first see if it mounts without -- it may auto
[09:08] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: and the RSS reader is kinda nice, it's all integrated and you don't have to go to another page. you stay on netvibes, all the time
[09:08] <domas> stuff like slackware 96 or debian 1.0 rocks :)
[09:08] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: i never used emacs.
[09:08] <deaden> what are you trying to mount?
[09:08] <SurfnKid> Gnea: does it have dual fans?
[09:08] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, it is not nice, I have used it, it is far more pleasant to go to the other sites
[09:08] <deaden> have you read man mount?
[09:08] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, well you should consider it, you would like it
[09:09] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: well, which one do you like best?
[09:09] <NaNO2x> ok well that worked, is it safe to write to?
[09:09] <Gnea> what model #?
[09:09] <moustafa> How can I hide folder?
[09:09] <NaNO2x> thanks gnea and insmod
[09:09] <deaden> put a leading . in the name
[09:09] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, I am kind of into using the browser to browse
[09:09] <SurfnKid> Gnea: laptop? 6400 inspironn
[09:09] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: text editors are useless to me, since i don't write scripts. Sometimes a little one, if i want to automate some task
[09:09] <deaden> to hide a folder
[09:09] <Gnea> SurfnKid: right, there aren't any inspiron desktops (not for another month or so anyway heh...)
[09:09] <moustafa> I want to hide this folder /home/moustafa/RealPlayer , it's on my desktop
[09:09] <SurfnKid> ah
[09:09] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: with me, if i choose to do that, in 5 minutes i have 68 tabs open.
 what got it going
[09:09] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, well if you ever get into it, emacs will be awesome, there are integrated irc clients for it I have seen
[09:10] <domas> heeee, I like ubuntu installer localizations
[09:10] <Flannel> moustafa: that folder isn't on your desktop. /home/moustafa/Desktop/Realplayer is on your desktop.
[09:10] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: that's why i like netvibes
[09:10] <domas> they make the process much more fun
[09:10] <NaNO2x> sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/harddrive
[09:10] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, right you want a bloated catch all, why don't you just use a webos
 your welcome
[09:10] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: like what?
[09:10] <moustafa> I want to hide it
[09:10] <moustafa> How?
 always check dmesg
[09:11] <Gnea> SurfnKid: read this yet? http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/ins6400/en/om/index.htm
[09:11] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, there are a few of them http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebOS
[09:11] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: what are they for?
[09:11] <moustafa> How can I hide any folder please?
[09:11] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, it is for people who want their operating system to be in their browser
[09:11] <bruenig> you would like it
[09:11] <radotsiahaan> excuse me pal
[09:12] <radotsiahaan> may i join with u all
[09:12] <wols> moustafa: prepend the name witha  fot:  .folder/
[09:12] <moustafa> How?
[09:12] <NaNO2x> is there anything i should be careful with on writing to the hd?
[09:12] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: well, isn't that a bit far? netvibes is a startpage.
[09:13] <radotsiahaan> hehhee..
[09:13] <radotsiahaan> yup
 like what
[09:13] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, you were saying that you hardly left it
[09:13] <PIPBoy_> wols, i tried what ubotu dished out, and i needed 1.5 java not 1.4 :( is there a way i can get it?
[09:13] <radotsiahaan> may i ask some question corresponding with linux
 it is local -- just remember to umount it
[09:13] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: true
[09:13] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: i read my feeds there, use meebo there, do almost everything there.
[09:13] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, no need for a web BROWSER then
 well the permissions say that even the owner right now only has read
[09:13] <radotsiahaan> i'm still newbie in linux
[09:14] <radotsiahaan> its my first time
[09:14] <wols> PIPBoy_: ubotu told you about java 1.5 (and 1.6 actually). learn to read
[09:14] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, well yeah if you get tethered to it by running apps in it instead of on their own
[09:14] <Gnea> !ask | radotsiahaan
[09:14] <ubotu> radotsiahaan: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
 ah chmod the dir
[09:14] <moustafa> How can i hide any folder on my desktop ?
[09:15] <bruenig> moustafa, you call rename it with a . in front of it probably
[09:15] <NaNO2x> well i know i can change the permissions but i want to make sure thats safe <insmod>
[09:15] <bruenig> can*
[09:15] <PIPBoy_> wols, i didnt see anything about 1.5 or 1.6 it said 1.4 for the version that i was installing...maybe im just incompetent, but yeah ill quit wasting your time now. Thanks for the help!
add . so file is now .file
[09:15] <moustafa> aha
 oh ya
[09:15] <moustafa> Thank you
[09:15] <domas> damnit, now it staller completely
[09:15] <domas> maybe I should use desktop iso instead of server iso
[09:15] <domas> :)
[09:15] <domas> *stalled
[09:15] <RivaeAerya> bruenig: netvibes has the neat thing that you can use it everywhere, just as you left it. All feeds that have been read, have been read, and stuff like that
[09:15] <RivaeAerya> even your searches are kept
 the dir you mounted it on is what you need to change perms
[09:16] <bruenig> RivaeAerya, the internet has this thing where it is the same everywhere
[09:16] <moustafa> heheheehhe
[09:16] <moustafa> Thanks alot
[09:16] <RivaeAerya> bruenig, but i think we should continue this in #ubuntu-offtopic
 yes, but i mean if it were ntfs for some reason would this kill something when i coppied something over to it
[09:16] <bruenig> it is 2 AM, no one cares
[09:16] <Gnea> bruenig: wanna bet?
 .files are config hidden files usually -- but i do it to hide drivers etc
[09:17] <bruenig> betting seems impractical, how would I collect
[09:17] <bruenig> or you collect
[09:17] <bruenig> paypal I guess
[09:17] <Gnea> heh
[09:17] <bruenig> do you have paypal?
 no
[09:17] <Gnea> !offtopic | bruenig
[09:17] <ubotu> bruenig: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:17] <NaNO2x> all right, thanks
[09:17] <Madpilot> bruenig, it's not 2am everywhere, you know...
[09:17] <bruenig> asia
[09:17] <bruenig> asia is all that is really doing anything right now
[09:17] <bruenig> they aren't in here
 just because it is not pre done in fstab you have to redo all steps each use -- or write the fstab

[09:18] <ryan__> ok I checked my file system for the file I downloaded in amule and I still cant find it, even in the usr/share folders
[09:18] <wols> bruenig: it's 9am where I am. far from asia
[09:18] <Gnea> bruenig: please take any and all offtopic conversation to #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:19] <ryan__> is there anyone who knows where to find where the files are saved?
[09:19] <bLk-LaBeL> is there a messenger program for fedora that allows you to have web-cam chat with windows live messenger users?
 it wont let me change permsisions now
[09:19] <Gnea> !ops | bruenig continues to be offtopic and rude

 edit and write the saned config -- all auto if it's HP
[09:34] <H-Y-P-E-R> bruengig do i need to tell the installer to use the disk or will it just figure it out?
 or contact canon for beter support :P

[09:36] <Memories> intelikey its ok thanks foir pointing out the way though :)
[09:36] <roho> Mez: see the hardware compatibility list
[09:36] <roho> !hardware
 they write linux drivers and gui progs for them

 the saned main page is where ?
 epson is ok as well -- but canon eek -- you have to do it on your own no help from them

[09:52] <Topsun> kipseron: since when is the system actin like this and what have you done?
[09:52] <NeoGeo64> how much does ubuntu cost
[09:52] <NeoGeo64> for a 10 user license
[09:52] <kipseron> topsun
[09:52] <Ausicaemia> Ubuntu is free. Full stop.
[09:52] <kazim59> NeoGeo64: $100 per user license
[09:52] <kipseron> i dont understand the question
[09:53] <kipseron> ?
[09:53] <Ausicaemia> I have a question, I'm installing Feisty using the Alternate CD, both the disk and the image are correctly md5'd and verified.
[09:53] <Topsun> kipseron: does the system have no no borders since installation?
[09:54] <kipseron> no i remove today kubuntu
[09:54] <kipseron> and install ubuntu
[09:54] <Ausicaemia> Yet when I start it up and beegin the process, it always hangs at 6%, while loading module trm290
[09:54] <kipseron> and after the install
[09:54] <kipseron> i login into the system
[09:54] <Ausicaemia> Anybody know what is going on/how I can solve the problem?
[09:54] <kipseron> and i see that no borders to the windows
[09:54] <kipseron> the top border of the windows
[09:54] <kipseron> is missing
[09:55] <kipseron> i can move the windows or minimize
[09:55] <kipseron> can't
[09:55] <NeoGeo64> sounds like you have that shi!tty windows effects turned on
[09:55] <NeoGeo64> it doesnt even work right
[09:55] <NeoGeo64> i dont know why ubuntu included it, it doesnt work.
[09:55] <NeoGeo64> turn it off
[09:55] <NeoGeo64> will fix your problem
[09:55] <Topsun> or the profile is damaged
[09:55] <NeoGeo64> doubt it
[09:55] <kipseron> no
[09:56] <kipseron> i dont turned on the windows
[09:56] <NeoGeo64> he has the windows fx on, why did ubuntu include them
[09:56] <kipseron> effects
[09:56] <NeoGeo64> they dont work
[09:56] <Ausicaemia> So does anyone know what the problem is with my install process?
[09:56] <Topsun> Ausicaemia: maybe you can prohibit the loading of that module?
[09:57] <Ausicaemia> I've done that
[09:57] <kipseron> topsun
[09:57] <GeekMaster1> Anyone here have an experience with VMWare?
[09:57] <Ausicaemia> It just hangs at the module immediately after it.
[09:57] <kipseron> so you have soultion for me
[09:57] <kipseron> ?
[09:57] <maeth> i dont get it... whats wrong with this line? gpg -recv-keys 81836EBF
[09:57] <starz> maeth, you did a sudo apt-get update
[09:58] <starz> what is the url that its complaining about
[09:58] <Topsun> kipseron: try to create a new user and check if there are the same problems, if not you have to remove the gnome profile files / directories in your home dir
[09:58] <maeth> GeekMaster1, i have been using a lot the wmware with a winxp machine
[09:58] <maeth> starz, yes
[09:58] <maeth> starz, i added the repository that says in the tutorial in the sources.list and everything
[09:58] <Ausicaemia> I'm so tired, been trying to install Feisty since midnight last night.
[09:59] <Ausicaemia> Breezy was never problematic.
[09:59] <Ausicaemia> Haha.
[09:59] <maeth> starz, still , when i do that line, it says "cant open" , i tried with sudo and still the same...
[09:59] <Topsun> Ausicaemia: do you have a special system? laptop, ...
[09:59] <Ausicaemia> Nope.
[09:59] <Ausicaemia> Just a desktop.
[09:59] <maeth> Ausicaemia, what video card u have?
[10:00] <maeth> Ausicaemia, did you order free cds or did you download it?
[10:00] <Ausicaemia> Its onboard on this machine, a SiS chipset.
[10:00] <Ausicaemia> Had no problems withit on Breezy Badger, so I can't understand why it has problems now.
[10:00] <Ausicaemia> This is a downloaded image.
[10:00] <maeth> Ausicaemia, k
[10:00] <Ausicaemia> I've tried 3 different mirrors, and they all md5'd and verified perfectly before and after burning.
[10:00] <GeekMaster1> maeth: This is Vista, bu tI don't think there is much of a difference with what I need to do, bu tit is complicated. Can you please IM me @ AIM: danielmichel0101 Yahoo~: danielmichel0101 MSN: danielmichel0101@hotmail.com ICQ: 488336961 GTalk: xcingix@gmail.com

[10:29] <BloodHunter> want to install a dual boot with Vista ultimate :9

[10:29] <roho> moustafa: it's easy.  just like windows
[10:29] <moustafa> How?
[10:29] <BloodHunter> i did
[10:30] <roho> Andeh: i think you load it from gaim itself
[10:30] <BloodHunter> but there i only could create a new empty partition table ... and that would have deleted all files
[10:30] <Andeh> roho: um... how?
[10:30] <roho> heh
[10:30] <bluebanana> Hello. It's the first time I've plugged in a printer (brother MFC 210C) into my Ubuntu computer. Will it print? Please help a newbie
[10:31] <roho> Andeh: ok, how'd you get the plugin to begin with?
[10:31] <Andeh> roho: Internet
[10:31] <roho> k
[10:31] <Andeh> roho : XD
[10:31] <Andeh> roho: Where do i put it so it shows up in the GAIM Plugins window?
[10:31] <Andeh> I did this ages ago and i copied it to a folder but there werent any .pl files in it and it still didnt show up
[10:32] <roho> did you check to see if it's in the plugin list?
[10:32] <Kprofthreat> How do you force terminate a program again?
[10:33] <xst> In feisty .Xdefaults / .Xresources is apparently not read upon login as in edgy. I used to configure the font size of emacs in here. What should I do now?
[10:33] <Andeh> roho: No, cause it's on my desktop
[10:33] <roho> what's the name of the plugin?
[10:33] <AMD-ubuntuPOWEo> hi , i installed vmware-server and by exident i boot into my ubuntu os (it was already  loaded), now when i try any boot into ubuntu the normal way it wont load. it complians about  gdm and i cannot install the nvidia drivers. envy  complians about permitions and that its read only.
[10:33] <Andeh> roho: gaimbot.pl
[10:33] <maeth> i installed compiz fusion, but i dont have a window manager...
[10:33] <maeth> i tried to install emerald
[10:33] <bluebanana> I went to System/Administration/Printing. The program was able to detect  my printer as Brother MFC 210C, but when I press Forward, the model of my printer is not in the list. What to i do? Is this a bug?
[10:33] <maeth> but when i start it , it says "core dumped"
[10:34] <Andeh> roho: Ummmm?
[10:34] <nuked_omen> maeth: i thought emerald should be used with beryl, not compiz
[10:34] <hc_> I have 6 IP-s for my server (local IPs, 192.168.1.X-range). Before I allocated the extra 5, oidentd worked perfect. Now it doesn't. Any ideas how to solve it?
[10:34] <maeth> nuked_omen, that could explain a lot :P
[10:34] <maeth> nuked_omen, what should i do then?
[10:34] <roho> Andeh: just a sec
[10:34] <Andeh> k
[10:34] <AMD-ubuntuPOWEo> guys?
[10:35] <nuked_omen> maeth: install beryl?
[10:35] <msl> AMD-ubuntuPOWEo: You mean that you ran the raw disk copy of your already running ubuntu instance?
[10:35] <maeth> nuked_omen, but compiz fusion is better than beryl... its the fusion with compiz and beryl
[10:36] <roho> Andeh: well, first of all, it's alpha software
[10:36] <theme> I view an ungodly amount of pornography. How do I prevent it from showing up in 'recent documents' without needing to clear manually every time?
[10:36] <roho> which means it's still being heavily tested by developers
[10:36] <Andeh> roho: Um... k...
[10:36] <Andeh> roho: But WHERE are the gimp PERL plugins stored!?
[10:37] <Andeh> lol
[10:37] <AMD-ubuntuPOWEo> msl yes
[10:37] <roho> gimp?
[10:37] <roho> i thought you said gaim
[10:37] <roho> yeah, you were
[10:37] <Andeh> roho: I did
[10:37] <Andeh> lol sorry
[10:37] <theme> Anyone know?
[10:37] <AMD-ubuntuPOWEo> not intentionally thou
[10:38] <roho> ok, heh
[10:38] <Andeh> theme: View it online using a firefox extension that disables logging when you enable it and starts again when you disable it lol
[10:38] <roho> well, there is a directory called .gaim in your home directory
[10:38] <pihus> What could be wrong that my ubuntu doesn't show information bout my laptop's battery? It used to show...
[10:38] <Andeh> roho: Yes...
[10:38] <AMD-ubuntuPOWEo> i think evey thing is messed up now ?
[10:38] <pihus> I already tried the previous kernel but that also didn't work
[10:38] <roho> but that doesn't have plugins in it
[10:38] <Andeh> roho: Indeed
[10:38] <msl> AMD-ubuntuPOWEo: I have almost done the same thing many times :)
[10:38] <roho> hm
[10:39] <theme> Andeh: I need to download and save said porn, since it's in .mpg format and the totem-xine browser plugin is broken.
[10:39] <msl> AMD-ubuntuPOWEo: I would guess that there are some lock files hanging around, but I don't know for sure.
[10:39] <Andeh> theme: I was joking lol.
[10:39] <rumplewhatshisna> Anybody who can help me get X up and running on Feisty 7.04?
[10:39] <Andeh> theme: Um... use VLC?
[10:39] <Andeh> lol
[10:39] <rumplewhatshisna> I know just about enough get myself in trouble.
[10:39] <theme> Andeh: I'm quite serious. Bondage tends to freak out my grandmother.
[10:39] <maeth> nuked_omen, ok, i found the problem.. but i cant fix it... can u help me?
[10:39] <Andeh> theme: She uses your account?
[10:39] <AMD-ubuntuPOWEo> msl so i didnt not have to reinstall the nvidia driver ?
[10:39] <roho> that porn
[10:40] <roho> it'll get ya
[10:40] <theme> Andeh: I'd rather not keep multiple accounts on my laptop.
[10:40] <Andeh> theme: If she knows to look into your recent documents for your porn, you might as well give her a seperate account
[10:40] <Andeh> theme: lol
[10:40] <nuked_omen> maeth: spit it out, if i can't help, someone else might
[10:40] <Andeh> theme: Well letting them use your account then trying to stop them from seeing your stuff is a bit hard
[10:40] <maeth> nuked_omen, the thing is , it installed compiz, but it didnt install compiz fusion cause a repository a gpg key isnt working
[10:41] <AMD-ubuntuPOWEo> msl you are right thats what ther terminal kept on saying cant blah blah "lock" blah blah file.
[10:41] <maeth> nuked_omen, this is the gpg key that it says in the tutorial : KEY=81836EBF; gpg keyserver subkeys.pgp.net recv $KEY && gpg export armor $KEY | sudo apt-key add -
[10:41] <theme> Andeh: True, but Firefox's Distrust extension tends to work well. I just don't want recent documents saved because I don't need it anyway.
[10:41] <roho> Andeh: where the heck did you hear about this plugin?
[10:41] <maeth> nuked_omen, its not working
[10:41] <roho> i've been all over the web having a lot of trouble
[10:41] <Andeh> theme: Umm... well the only way i can think of would be not to open them through NAUTILUS, maybe another filer or through another video viewer
[10:42] <msl> AMD-ubuntuPOWEo: I think I would start by clearing out /tmp and restart to see if the lockfile errors go away.    sudo rm -rf /tmp/*
[10:42] <Andeh> theme: oh, in that case, i'd google something like "ubuntu disable recent documents"
[10:42] <Andeh> roho: Internet
[10:42] <nuked_omen> maeth: try another repository
[10:42] <theme> Andeh: That's a good idea, and I didn't think of that. Thanks.
[10:42] <Andeh> theme: no problem :)
[10:42] <steven43126> theme, u can disable recent documents using the gconf editor
[10:42] <roho> no, but where?
[10:42] <roho> seriously
[10:42] <roho> it's alpha
[10:42] <roho> i can't get perl to run it
[10:42] <AMD-ubuntuPOWEo> msl thanks
[10:42] <maeth> nuked_omen, like what?
[10:43] <AMD-ubuntuPOWEo> brb
[10:43] <nuked_omen> maeth: #ubuntu-effects might help you better.. it did help me a couple of times
[10:43] <Andeh> roho: So i need to run it SEPERATELY? The file doesnt look like it was intended standalone, there must be a gimp perl plugin extension or something
[10:43] <roho> it's a perl script
[10:43] <roho> so perl has to interpret it
[10:43] <gtk> I've aproble with the programms that execute with boot
[10:44] <roho> there's no documentation for this plugin
[10:44] <roho> plus, i can't run it without an error
[10:44] <Andeh> hey
[10:44] <Andeh> theme: I have something for you
[10:44] <Andeh> theme: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-66821.html
[10:44] <Andeh> :)
[10:44] <gtk> where are the file with the boot programms definitions
[10:44] <Andeh> roho: Ok, do you know any programmable BOTS for GAIM then?
[10:44] <maeth> nuked_omen, k
[10:45] <roho> Andeh: sorry.
[10:45] <Andeh> Damn... theme left
[10:45] <Andeh> Oh hi
[10:45] <Andeh> lol
[10:45] <Fabio__|> hello, from the command line, i want to find the latest added/modified file in a directory (and sub-directory) i know there is the "find" command, but i don't find any option about the possibility to "order" the result by modification date.. thank
[10:45] <Andeh> theme: I have something for you
[10:45] <Andeh> theme: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-66821.html
[10:45] <gtk> I need heltp!...
[10:46] <gtk> help
[10:46] <roho> Andeh: what i would do is wait until gaimbot comes out of testing
[10:46] <roho> or at least beta
[10:46] <steven43126> Fabio__|,  use find as you normally would, make sure to output the results including the modification date and then pipe the results to sort
[10:46] <Andeh> roho: Uuummm... i need a GAIM bot, i don't mind which one
[10:46] <gtk> thanks for no help!
[10:47] <Andeh> roho: And that one's been unchanged since 2002 apparently, so i'm not WAITING for it to develop further lol
[10:47] <vzduch> GAIM bot?
[10:47] <roho> Andeh: http://www.digitalpeer.com/id/gaim
[10:47] <Ausicaemia> Okay, I got it working!
[10:47] <steven43126> Fabio__|,  check out the sort man page you can select the Coulomb to sort on
[10:47] <Ausicaemia> But there's only one problem, when UUID or uSplash or whatever its called now is doing its thing
[10:47] <Andeh> gtk: You want to edit the GRUB boot menu?
[10:47] <roho> vzduch: it's an AI thing.  it asks you questions and learns things from you.  it's a toy, really.
[10:47] <Ausicaemia> my monitor complains about the input range not being supported
[10:47] <Ausicaemia> What can I do to fix that?
[10:47] <vzduch> *omfg*
[10:48] <Andeh> roho: That one's PERL too, i need to run it SEPERATELY?
[10:48] <Andeh> roho: I found that one 2 weeks ago and i couldnt find where to put it
[10:48] <roho> i'm sorry
[10:48] <steven43126> Ausicaemia, you need to set the terminal resolution i think in menu.lst something to the equivelant of vga=791
[10:48] <roho> good luck
[10:49] <Andeh> roho: So i need to run it with perl while gaim is running?
[10:49] <thufir007> anyone here have a samsung ml 2510 printer?
[10:49] <thufir007> if so, how did you install the driver stuff?
[10:49] <Andeh> ok, .... bye
[10:49] <roho> Andeh: i
[10:49] <roho> no!
[10:49] <ubuntuEdgy> lsm
[10:49] <Andeh> what?
[10:49] <Andeh> lol
[10:50] <roho> just put it in ~/.gaim
[10:50] <roho> then restart gaim
[10:50] <Andeh> roho: Umm
[10:50] <Andeh> Ok
[10:50] <roho> see if it shows up in the plugin list
[10:50] <ubuntuEdgy> sudo rm -rf /tmp/* worked
[10:50] <ubuntuEdgy> im so happy

[10:52] <Fabio__|> steven43126: thanks, but which program can i use after pipe to sort files? thank
[10:52] <Andeh> gtg
[10:52] <steven43126> Fabio__|, sort
[10:53] <roho> well, at least i spent half an hour trying to help her
[10:53] <roho> gaim sucks anyway
[10:53] <Shadowpillar> anyone here have issues with feisty's madwifi drivers?
[10:53] <steven43126> Fabio__|, type man sort
[10:53] <Shadowpillar> I cant seem to connect to any APs
[10:53] <Shadowpillar> no matter what
[10:53] <Shadowpillar> one keeps asking for the WEP key despite it being the correct key
[10:53] <Andeh> roho: That doesnt help
[10:54] <Shadowpillar> I know because that's my AP :/
[10:54] <roho> Andeh: well, i'm sorry. i can't help you anymore.
[10:54] <roho> i have no idea

[10:54] <gtk> I want that pidgin start when system starts... How can I do that?
[10:54] <Ausicaemia> steven43126, where do I enter the vga=791?
[10:55] <Fabio__|> steven43126: thanks
[10:55] <Shadowpillar> gtk: just have gnome remember your session
[10:56] <Shadowpillar> and dont close gaim before you log out ;)
[10:56] <gtk> thanks
[10:56] <steven43126> at the end of your kopt line in menu.lst it will be commented out read the notes above the line
[10:57] <steven43126> Fabio__|, i have a better solution
[10:58] <Ausicaemia> Can you be a little more general?
[10:58] <Ausicaemia> You mean in GRUB?
[10:58] <steven43126> Fabio__|, man ls, ls has an option to sort by date --sort=access
[10:59] <Fabio__|> steven43126: i have found a good way :) find -printf "%T+ %f \n" | sort
[10:59] <gtk> If choose to shave the session... works!
[10:59] <steven43126> Fabio__|, that works too ;)
[11:00] <francois_fon> yep les gars
[11:00] <Fabio__|> steven43126: thanks have a good day

[11:00] <wigfreitz> How do I install flash on feisty?
[11:01] <chaosite> hello...
[11:01] <nuked_omen> wigfreitz: on firefox?
[11:01] <chaosite> can anyone help me with this? http://ti.sh.nu/stash/badooo.png
[11:02] <Ausicaemia> steven43126, Where did you say? Do I enter the vga thing in the GRUB menu?
[11:02] <roho> wigfreitz: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_Flash_Player_.28Macromedia_Flash.29_Plug-in_for_Mozilla_Firefox
[11:02] <nuked_omen> wtf?
[11:02] <mypapit> wtf too
[11:02] <roho> wigfreitz: in fact, read that whole guide.
[11:03] <wigfreitz> nuked_omen, roho: yes, I tried apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree but I got E: Package flashplugin-nonfree has no installation candidate. I think the sources.list on ubuntuguide is broken :-(
[11:03] <Gnea> Ausicaemia: edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst and add vga=791 to the end of the 'kernel' line
[11:03] <steven43126> Ausicaemia, in /boot/menu.lst there is a line that looks like kopt=root=/dev/sda ro vga=791
[11:04] <marcin_ant> hi guys I'm trying to instal mailscanner package on feisty but I get dpkg: error processing package in post-installation script
[11:04] <steven43126> Ausicaemia, the path is actually /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:04] <roho> wigfreitz: worked for me
[11:04] <marcin_ant> is this some known bug? could someone help me with this?
[11:04] <steven43126> Ausicaemia, you put options there you want to passed to the kernel, and they won't be overwritten when new kernels are installed
[11:05] <Gnea> Ausicaemia: should look similar to this (just don't use resume!): http://perso.ens-lyon.fr/fabrice.rastello/X300/ALL//boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:05] <wigfreitz> specifically which repository is flashplugin-nonfree stored in?
[11:05] <roho> wigfreitz: search for it in synaptic and it will tell you
[11:06] <nuked_omen> wigfreitz: go to barbie.com.. then firefox will ask you to install a plugin, do it from within firefox, not synaptic or apt-get
[11:07] <wigfreitz> nuked_omen: ??
[11:07] <nuked_omen> wigfreitz: yeah, do it
[11:07] <wigfreitz> nuked_omen: that just takes you to adobe downloads
[11:08] <nuked_omen> yeah, so?
[11:08] <wigfreitz> nuked_omen: where you can download the tar.bz2
[11:08] <nuked_omen> wigfreitz: no, it downloads and installs the plugin
[11:08] <wigfreitz> nuked_omen: really? not on mine
[11:08] <nuked_omen> IIRC
[11:08] <nuked_omen> i installed flash a long time ago, so you're probably right
[11:08] <nuked_omen> wigfreitz: well, why not install it for the tar.bz2 file?
[11:09] <C-gatopardo> hello
[11:09] <C-gatopardo> O bien, hola
[11:09] <wigfreitz> nuked_omen: what, compile it?
[11:10] <CNTRLX> how can i re write my floppy disc from terminal?
[11:10] <C-gatopardo> bye
[11:10] <nuked_omen> yeah
[11:10] <wigfreitz> nuked_omen: I might as well compile from the repro sources
[11:10] <DaBigShow> whats up ppl
[11:10] <Lekrem> does anyone know a good program to make animated gifs with?
[11:10] <wigfreitz> Lekrem: Imagemagick
[11:10] <Gnea> Lekrem: gimp
[11:11] <chaosite> Lekrem: imagemagick, mencoder
[11:11] <Lekrem> gimp can make animated images?
[11:11] <Gnea> yes.
[11:11] <Lekrem> wow
[11:11] <Lekrem> gimp rules
[11:11] <wigfreitz> Lekrem:Gnea: I never got that working
[11:11] <Gnea> i've made lots with it :)
[11:11] <Ireal> each frame is a layer
[11:11] <Gnea> what Ireal said
[11:12] <supremesonic> !bruteforce
[11:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bruteforce - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:12] <supremesonic> !brute
[11:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about brute - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:12] <supremesonic> anyone have a example on how to make a simple brute force within C?
[11:13] <domas> lol
[11:13] <Enselic__> supremesonic: bruteforcing a solution means trying all possible combinations and choosing the best
[11:13] <chaosite> no one wants to help me with my broken openoffice?
[11:13] <Gnea> supremesonic: why?
[11:13] <domas> supremesonic: for(;;) {}
[11:13] <Ireal> look at john ;P
[11:13] <domas> supremesonic: this is real brute force! :)
[11:13] <Frogzoo_> chaosite: you look like you've selected the wingdings font
[11:13] <Enselic__> domas: that's hardly bruteforce...
[11:13] <supremesonic> becuase I made my own hash encoding, and I wanna see how the chance are for things getting the same result
[11:13] <domas> busywait is brute-force enough ;-p
[11:14] <chaosite> Frogzoo_: yeah. But I didn't. And even if I did, I can't really change it back without using the menus - which i can't read.
[11:14] <Frogzoo_> chaosite: check all font settings in sys -> prefs -> font - especially "application"
[11:14] <Enselic__> endlessloops has nothing to do with bruteforcing
[11:14] <domas> brute-force of doing nothing
[11:14] <crdlb> supremesonic, this is not the right channel for that
[11:14] <crdlb> try ##c maybe
[11:14] <Frogzoo_> chaosite: all menus, or just oo ?
[11:14] <chaosite> Frogzoo_: just oo
[11:14] <domas> Enselic__: oh come on. not everyone understands bruteforceing as narrow as you do :)
[11:14] <Enselic__> domas: as a programmer I tend to be picky about these things :)
[11:15] <domas> Enselic__: as a consultant I can evade pretty much anything ;-p
[11:15] <supremesonic> im just gonna try my way forward.
[11:15] <Enselic__> domas: :D
[11:15] <supremesonic> Recursion with for loop, would probely do it
[11:15] <Frogzoo_> chaosite: maybe close oo, delete .openoffice.org2 & try again
[11:15] <Frogzoo_> chaosite: maybe close oo, delete ~/.openoffice.org2 & try again
[11:16] <vecina> Does anyone here use MoBlock or Peerguardian?
[11:16] <Gnea> wigfreitz: http://www.gimp.org/tutorials/Simple_Animations/
[11:16] <supremesonic> anyone here are very good with math ?
[11:16] <Enselic__> supremesonic: pretty good
[11:16] <Gnea> supremesonic: 1+1=2
[11:17] <supremesonic> gnea, pff newbie 1+1 = 3 :)
[11:17] <supremesonic> hi
[11:17] <uptownben> Hi All..  Something happened during my XUBUNTU install and it did not finish completely. I'm installing on a thinkpad x24 with a CF card.. the installation went VERY slowly (took about 5 hours).. it seems to have just stopped towards the end.. I can boot the system I get a console login.. (no X).. it seems like everything was installed..but a few things are wierd.. 1. there is no inittab (is that normal?), the machine doesnt boot into X..
[11:17] <vecina> If you send a p2p ip blocker a request to ping a site... say, riaa.com... and get a bunch of "package filtered" messages, that means its workingr ight?
[11:17] <Enselic__> supremesonic: why do you wonder?
[11:18] <uptownben> 2. I cant get the mouse to work when I run startx manually
[11:18] <Enselic__> uptownben: did you cancel the installation or did you let it finnish?
[11:18] <uptownben> any idea how I can get the system to complete the last steps of theinstall?
[11:18] <supremesonic> enselic__,  wanna help me calculate the chance of data would give the same result in my hash algorithm ?
[11:18] <Gnea> supremesonic: (2x+3)*(4x-3)=81, x=3  :P
[11:18] <Blissex> uptownben: recent Ubuntu versions use a different 'init', so that may explain the lack of '/etc/inittab'.
[11:19] <Frogzoo_> vecina: peer guardian works
[11:19] <supremesonic> gnea, :)
[11:19] <uptownben> I didn't cancel.. when I came back to check on my machine (after 5 or 6 hours) it was at a black screen and not responding to keyboard presses.
[11:19] <Enselic__> supremesonic: how does the hash algorithm work?
[11:19] <chaosite> Frogzoo_: it was the font in sys->pref->fonts O.o
[11:19] <Lekrem> does ubuntu support animated backgrounds?
[11:19] <chaosite> Frogzoo_: it was set to dingbats
[11:19] <chaosite> Frogzoo_: probably my sister wanted "pretty fonts"
[11:19] <vecina> Frogzoo_: Well i have moblock on now... i coudlnt get peer guardian because the only package for it is 32 bit :/ it didnt recognize the existance of libncurses5
[11:19] <Gnea> Lekrem: if you install E17
[11:19] <chaosite> Frogzoo_: thanks man!
[11:20] <vecina> Frogzoo_: Which believe me, is installed :/
[11:20] <Lekrem> Gnea: E17?
[11:20] <Ausicaemia> steven43126, nope, didn't do it.
[11:20] <Gnea> Lekrem: www.enlightenment.org
[11:20] <supremesonic> can we talk privaly, its pretty new :) don't want some newbie to take credit if its actually good encoding.
[11:20] <Frogzoo_> vecina: you need to read the install docs
[11:20] <Ausicaemia> Still giving me "input not supported" floating around in a little box, until ubuntu is finished booting
[11:20] <Enselic__> uptownben: well that sounds as if the installatin didn't complete correctly, I'd recomend a reinstall and being close to the computer to look for error messages
[11:20] <Blissex> uptownben: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReplacementInit for 'init'. As to the many hours etc. I'd suspect some hw problem, from poorly readable CD to something worse.
[11:20] <Ausicaemia> Then I finally get a GUI
[11:21] <supremesonic> one second gotta restart my irc client
[11:21] <vecina> Frogzoo_: I just went to a HOWTO on the ubuntu forums and followed it. It installed using the deb off sourceforge fine... but when i treid to run it it said "libcurses.so.5" is mjissing.
[11:21] <Ausicaemia> Let me chat from the box itself
[11:21] <Ausicaemia> Make it easier.
[11:21] <Ireal> vecina: have you installed the ncurses package then ?
[11:21] <uptownben> since I'm installing on a CF card I did not create a swap partition... and my machine only has 256MB RAM.. so this is probably the reason for the slow install...
[11:22] <vecina> Ireal: Yeah... thats whats frustrating
[11:22] <Lekrem> Gnea: will i have to stop using beryl if i get E17?
[11:22] <vecina> Ireal: I like installed all of them :/
[11:22] <Ireal> vecina: odd ^^
[11:22] <Gnea> Lekrem: yes
[11:22] <vecina> Ireal: No kidding
[11:22] <Gnea> Lekrem: beryl and e17 are 2 different window managers
[11:22] <wigfreitz> http://rafb.net/p/sUEo4Q35, does anyone know why I would get child process failed with apt-get?
[11:22] <Ireal> perhaps you should check with ldd where he thinks the lib is
[11:23] <Lekrem> Gnea
[11:23] <Lekrem> Gnea: is E17 pretty good?
[11:23] <vecina> Ireal: idd?
[11:23] <Gnea> Lekrem: theoretically, you could install xen and ubuntu on that and run beryl regularly, and run e17 in the xen instance
[11:23] <Gnea> Lekrem: i'm using it now, it's great
[11:23] <Ireal> vecina: el dee dee
[11:23] <Lekrem> Gnea: sweet ill try it
[11:23] <Gnea> L D D
[11:24] <vecina> Ireal: What do i do with this l d d?
[11:24] <Gnea> Lekrem: http://www1.get-e.org/Backgrounds/Animated/
[11:24] <Ireal> vecina: use it on the binary, it should give you an overview of the libs it needs including a path
[11:24] <uptownben> I would realy like to try to get the mouse recongnized.. any ideas?
[11:24] <Enselic__> supremesonic: started priv chat
[11:24] <vecina> Ireal: seriously? hmm
[11:24] <Ireal> vecina: no i'm making this up :)
[11:24] <supremesonic> enselic__ yes I did.
[11:25] <Gnea> uptownben: the mouse doesn't work?
[11:25] <DaFreak> Anybody had experience using ventrilo in Linux via wine?
[11:25] <Enselic__> supremesonic: we need to register our nicks
[11:25] <supremesonic> damnit :(
[11:25] <Sergo> hello
[11:26] <vecina> Ireal: so, lets see... i have the package. i should install that first?
[11:26] <Sergo> please help me, i got this error hello.c:1:19: error: stdio.h: No such file or directory
[11:26] <vecina> Ireal: does it matter that the package explicitly says "i386" in its name when im 64 ? :/
[11:26] <Enselic__> Sergo: #include <stdio.h> instead of "stdio.h"
[11:26] <Lekrem> Gnea: http://www1.get-e.org/Main/Download/ ???
[11:26] <supremesonic> sergo, you need to install gcc.
[11:26] <wigfreitz> http://rafb.net/p/sUEo4Q35, does anyone know why I would get child process failed with apt-get?
[11:27] <Ireal> supremesonic: didn't he already? he's compiling isn't he? :P
[11:27] <supremesonic> sergo, sometimes gcc is on the machine without any libraries very wierd

[11:27] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[11:28] <vecina> Ireal: Oh... if i install it ill have to overwrite moblock, but i dunno if thats working anyway... its log is very... static :/
[11:28] <Gnea> Lekrem: get-e are add-ons for E17
[11:28] <Gnea> Lekrem: there are .deb files for ubuntu already
[11:28] <Lekrem> ohh
[11:28] <Gnea> Lekrem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=20216
[11:29] <Sergo> Enselic__: what is the difference betwen #include <stdio.h> instead of "stdio.h" ?:)
[11:29] <Gnea> Sergo: apt-get install libc6-dev
[11:29] <supremesonic> enselic__, can you see me /w to you?
[11:29] <Enselic__> Sergo: <> looks in system paths, "" is relative to file
[11:29] <vecina> Yeah, moblock conflicts with peerguardian
[11:29] <Sergo> ah ok
[11:29] <Sergo> i understand
[11:29] <Sergo> thanks
[11:29] <supremesonic> sergo, just do apt-get install gcc g++  works better
[11:29] <Enselic__> supremesonic: that's not his problem :)
[11:30] <ubuntuEdgy> hi guys i have vmware server i wat to boot into xp i keep getting error "Error 13: Invalid or Unsupported executable format"
[11:30] <ubuntuEdgy> what can i do
[11:30] <supremesonic> enselic__, DOH! sorry I see you wrote like 5times now sorry :)
[11:30] <vecina> Ireal: is there any way i can check to see first whether or not "moblock" is getting the job done? the log file is just a few lines saying its started up
[11:30] <Enselic__> supremesonic: and if it were he should go sudo apt-get install build build-dep
[11:30] <supremesonic> enselic__ can you see that im writing private to you?
[11:30] <Enselic__> sudo apt-get install build-dep*
[11:30] <Enselic__> supremesonic: yeah, hang on
[11:30] <user_> hey guys, can anyone tell me what difference is betwen frugal and hd install?:)
[11:30] <Ausicaemia> Okay.
[11:31] <supremesonic> eneselic__ I always do     sudo su;passwd    in my ubuntu version, I feel more secure following the standard :)
[11:31] <xipietotec> Anyone know if the D programming language is included in the ubuntu repositories?
[11:31] <Enselic__> supremesonic: what irc client do you use btw?
[11:31] <Ireal> vecina: i have no idea what you're trying todo, i just read your ncurses problem ;)
[11:32] <vecina> Ireal: Im trying to block aggressive IPS :P
[11:32] <supremesonic> I used irssi before, now im using gaim. I need to get another one! :(
[11:32] <msl> ubuntuEdgy: That is an error from grub, not from vmware-server
[11:32] <Gnea> irssi > *
[11:32] <Ireal> irssi ;*
[11:32] <supremesonic> enselic, im not much used to irc. Never really used it
[11:33] <Naked_Snake0> #ubuntu-fr
[11:33] <xipietotec> xchat ftw > *
[11:33] <Enselic> supremesonic: I find xchat-gnome easy to use
[11:33] <oxigen> hi guys, anyone here use root-tail on gnome?
[11:33] <Azul> gaim is best
[11:33] <xipietotec> Enselic, xchat is better, but gnome has some features that should be in xchat proper.
[11:33] <wigfreitz> Im trying to compile flashplugin-nonfree from source (apt-get install wont work) but I'm getting a child process failed. could someone take a look http://rafb.net/p/sUEo4Q35. I checked the swap and other thinks compile okay so could it be the source?
[11:34] <deep> xipietotec: konversation > xchat ;D
[11:34] <xipietotec> pfft
[11:34] <xipietotec> it's got kde in it, no thanks

[11:35] <vecina> Ireal: libncurses.so.5 => not found
[11:36] <Sergo> the stdie.h wasn't found becuse it is not present
[11:36] <Kaboom> Hey can anyone help me?
[11:36] <Sergo> i have to install the libs
[11:36] <hangthedj> vecina: find the real libncurses.so file and then create a link to libncurses.so.5 using the main file.
[11:36] <Ireal> vecina: okay, yet you have installed all the ncurses pkgs  o_O
[11:36] <vecina> hangthedj: okay, ill do a search
[11:36] <vecina> Ireal: yup
[11:37] <aeon> WWW.FORUM.OOM.PL
[11:37] <hangthedj> for example my main libncurses.so file is libncurses.so.5.5 and it links to libncurses.so.5
[11:37] <vecina> Ireal: waiT! i found one i didnt try. libncurses5-dbg
[11:37] <Ireal> yeah try what hangthedj said :)
[11:38] <xipietotec> dammit, D is not included
[11:38] <Sergo> Gnea: if i want to install an program written in C language, is libc6-dev required?
[11:38] <Sergo> to install and run..
[11:38] <xipietotec> Sergo, do you mean compile from source?
[11:38] <Sergo> yes
[11:38] <Sergo> :)
[11:39] <vecina> There it is! libncurses.so.5
[11:39] <Gnea> Sergo: yes, -dev installs the header (.h) files
[11:39] <Gnea> Lekrem: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Nu3RIgiiX8  :)
[11:39] <xipietotec> Yes, you need the header files for libc, plus you should check the README and INSTALL files for other dependencies of which you will need the -dev/-devel pacakges for.
[11:39] <xipietotec> packages even
[11:39] <Sergo> ok thanks
[11:40] <vecina> hangthedj: I found the file with a search... what do i do with it though? and by the way there's like 3... libncurses.so.5.5, libncurses.so.5, and another libncurses.so.5
[11:40] <hangthedj> Sergo: if your installing things from source, its a good idea to 'sudo apt-get build-essentials'
[11:40] <Memories> hello everyone
[11:40] <wigfreitz> hangthedj: its essental
[11:41] <hangthedj> thanks
[11:41] <gordonjcp> wigfreitz: the clue is in the name
[11:41] <hangthedj> sorry i never won a spelling bee.
[11:41] <xipietotec> you may also want autoconf, which is not in build-essentials
[11:41] <Memories> i just installed amsn where it asked me to isntall an additional package.. i have to choose my SYSTEM's ARCHITECTURE in order to do so! how can i know wht that is!
[11:41] <xipietotec> I don't know why the stuff for autogen and autoconf aren't.
[11:41] <gordonjcp> xipietotec: I was just about to say that
[11:41] <gordonjcp> utterly stupid thing to leave out
[11:42] <xipietotec> Memories, If you're using a general x86 version (i.e., you're not running PPC or the 64bit version of ubuntu) then your architecture is x86 / x386 / generic
[11:42] <hangthedj> vecina: what directory are they in? and what are you trying to build.
[11:42] <ravigr8> anyone built LFS on ubuntu?
[11:42] <xipietotec> gordonjcp, yeah, it suprised me when I ran into it
[11:43] <Memories> xipietotec , thanks for making tht clear for me though im not sure if i AM using ppc or the 64bit as u can see am a total newbie
[11:43] <vecina> hangthedj: im not trying to build anything. i installed peerguardian, and its saying that libncurses.so.5 cannot be found
[11:43] <xipietotec> Memories, if you're using a Mac then you're using PPC, if you installed the 64bit version of ubuntu, then you're using 64bit.
[11:43] <xipietotec> the *normal* version of Ubuntu is i386.
[11:43] <Memories> xipietotech ok thank you :) and sorry if i bothered
[11:43] <vecina> the exact error: peerguardnf: error while loading shared libraries: libncurses.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[11:44] <Memories> xipietotec thank you so i should choose linux-x86_64 then right?!
[11:44] <xipietotec> Memories, did you install the 64bit version of Ubuntu?
[11:44] <hangthedj> maybe try to put it in the peergaurdian path?  i'm sorry i didn't know peergaurdian made a linux version.  i've been waiting for it.  so thats cool.  i'm going to find it right now.
[11:45] <Memories> xipietotec i dunno i bought the pc with edgy on it!
[11:45] <vecina> hangthedj: put it in the peerguardian path? as in copy it to the same directory?
[11:45] <vecina> hangthedj: Im so confused >.< i just wanna block aggressive ips here
[11:45] <hangthedj> try it.
[11:46] <xipietotec> gordonjcp, what's the command to see what version/architecture of ubuntu you're running?
[11:47] <vecina> hangthedj: heh, that caused a segmentation fault
[11:47] <hangthedj> i'm installing it right now.
[11:48] <vecina> hangthedj: I still say the deb package's i368 label may be to blame, seeing as im in a 64 bit platform here
[11:49] <Memories> xipietotec , is there any keyword i could google?!
[11:49] <v_> hi. i've just installed the package xfonts-ay, but I am unable to use the fonts installed. I've run fc-cache, I've rebooted, I'm not sure what else to do...
[11:49] <hangthedj> thats a possibility ;)
[11:49] <xipietotec> Memories, well, you could open up synaptic, do a search for "linux-kernel" and see what linux-kernel-image package you have installed
[11:50] <Memories> ok just a sec xipietotec
[11:50] <v_> any suggestions?
[11:50] <gahan> !current
[11:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about current - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:51] <Memories> xipietotec no luck!
[11:51] <eljak> i have a laptop where ubuntu is installed and i want to install on a pc that doesnt have a screen, keyboard and mouse how could it be possible to do it remotetly. any hint?
[11:51] <Memories> xipietotec , it gave me one result "ketchup" without a version! :O
[11:51] <hangthedj> vecina: peerguardian is working for me. have you tried moblock?
[11:52] <vecina> hangthedj: yes, and it installs, but its log file is totally static.
[11:52] <vecina> hangthedj: i dont really know if its actually doing anything
[11:52] <xipietotec> Memories, search for "linux-" exactly
[11:53] <xipietotec> without quotes
[11:53] <xipietotec> and sort by installed
[11:54] <hangthedj> vecina: check /etc/moblock/guarding.p2p or check the cron jobs.
[11:54] <Memories> ok xipietotec done..  got lots of packages.. first one :  alsa-base
[11:54] <vecina> hangthedj: WOAH.  /etc/moblock/guarding.p2p has oen big list
[11:55] <vecina> hangthedj: if i try to ping one of these, i should be blocked right?
[11:55] <hangthedj> vecina: not sure, all i know is you block them. but it sounds reasonable that it would be blocked.
[11:56] <vecina> hangthedj: so... moblock is working then? :/

[11:58] <vecina> well thanks all, im off to bed
[11:58] <vecina> <3
[11:58] <xipietotec> According to the docs though, you should test moblock by pinging one of the blocked sites
[11:59] <vecina> xipietotec: hmm
[11:59] <linux_probe> porn bots have 0 respect
[11:59] <hangthedj> vecina: look for moblock in /etc/cron.daily
[11:59] <Azul> there is porn bots here? where?
[11:59] <hangthedj> if its there its working.
[11:59] <hangthedj> !porn

[11:59] <gnomefreak> Azul: please stay on topic
[11:59] <Azul> oh ok
[11:59] <linux_probe> was a bot posting above ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
[12:00] <linux_probe> or spamming rather
[12:00] <jsalas22> olaaaaaaaaaaa
[12:00] <v_> these are fonts from an ubuntu package installed via apt-get even
[12:00] <Azul> linux_probe: the link doesn't even work
[12:00] <linux_probe> i seen that, beside the point
[12:00] <maeth> hi, i have been changing "the look" of my gnome desktop, i got everything great now, i entered to gnome-look and i did a lot of things , the problem is.. i got the gtk theme, its great.. but
[12:00] <Azul> lol
[12:00] <vecina> hangthedj: Thanks! :3
[12:00] <v_> i can't believe you guys actually clicked on the link
[12:01] <Memories> lol V_
[12:01] <maeth> "the windows chosser, the letters are in black, and i cant see them", how can i change that?
[12:01] <linux_probe> did a whois, to file a complaint
[12:01] <v_> ah
[12:01] <gnomefreak> !offtopic
[12:01] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:03] <xipietotec> Memories, okay, then your architecture is: generic/ i386 / x86 (not x86_64)
[12:03] <Memories> thank you xipietotech sorry if i bothered you :) thanks again
[12:03] <xipietotec> those are all the same, so whatever it says, use that equivilent.
[12:03] <xipietotec> Memories, no bother =)
[12:05] <v_> bleh.
[12:06] <barawks> Welcome to another edition of the internet(s).
[12:06] <v_> at least the bot was willing to help me ;-s
[12:07] <v_> irc is a scary place.
[12:07] <MarcoPau> hey, since a few days ago, when I did the last upgrade, I can't get my wanted resolution in X
[12:08] <mongolai> does anyone here know if hardware detection is run every time feisty boots?
[12:08] <v_> mongolai: define hardware detection...
[12:08] <MarcoPau> it's correct in gdm, but when xfce starts up it goes down to 832x624
[12:09] <rausb0> mongolai: new pci and usb devices will be detected at each boot
[12:09] <mongolai> v_, like on the live-cd, I was curious what would happen if I put this HDD into another comp.
[12:09] <Pinguino> hey
[12:09] <v_> MarcoPau: weird. can't you set the res. from within xfce?
[12:09] <v_> ack it's a frenchard.
[12:10] <sidlet> frenchard?
[12:10] <Pinguino> how do Icheck which package installed a certain ile?
[12:10] <v_> blasted surrealist hippie types
[12:10] <Pinguino> file
[12:10] <Flannel> Pinguino: dpkg -S [file] 
[12:10] <MarcoPau> v_: not that I know
[12:10] <mongolai> i'm going to upgrade most of my hardware, and i'd like to just pop this HDD in.
[12:11] <v_> MarcoPau: oh well, i thought you could from within the xfce control panel thingy
[12:11] <predaeus> mongolai, that should work fine. the only thing you have to care about is the video drivers. If you set them to nvidia now and get a lets say ATI card, X won't start and you will be sitting at the console. But nothing one can not fix.
[12:11] <rausb0> mongolai: as long as grub boot kernel and initrd, the system should come up. you'll probably have to change your xorg.conf though.
[12:11] <puppe> I'm about to install Ubuntu on my new TravelMate 6292 laptop.
[12:11] <puppe> Unfortunately it simply just won't work and after the normal install splash screen shows up, it gives me this:
[12:11] <puppe> Busy box .... (some text)
[12:11] <puppe> /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
[12:11] <v_> MarcoPau: what's xorg.conf say?
[12:12] <Me2resh> hi, my password for mynickname is not working, is there anyway i can reset it ????
[12:12] <mongolai> thanks guys. that makes me feel a lot better!
[12:12] <MarcoPau> v_: hold on you're right, I got it
[12:13] <BrendanM> hey, so I'm trying to compile a wireless driver as instructed here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/91192
[12:13] <Chromis> that's neat.
[12:13] <Chromis> does it work?
[12:13] <BrendanM> could somebody tell me exactly what I need to do to do this correctly?
[12:13] <v_> blast!
[12:13] <BrendanM> I'm a newbie at compiling stuff, especially drivers
[12:14] <Me2resh> hi, my password for mynickname is not working, is there anyway i can reset it ????
[12:14] <v_> give it more steam Jimmy
[12:14] <Flannel> Me2resh: You'll have to talk to server admin about it.
[12:15] <v_> Me2resh: there's probably an appropriate channel for that... i'm not sure what it is
[12:15] <puppe> don't know. how do I check it?
[12:15] <puppe> no worries, will find it
[12:15] <v_> #freenode?
[12:15] <Me2resh> Flannel, Thanks, i will see the channels list and try to find it, i hope i will get to it, i am afraid that someone took over my account
[12:16] <rausb0> mongolai: you should check if the new hardware is supported by linux at all. for example, if the sata controller is not supported, the kernel won't find the hard disk.
[12:16] <mongolai> anyone know how to set up the URL handler in XChat for firefox?
[12:16] <v_> Me2resh: #services and #help redirect to #freenode.
[12:16] <mongolai> rausb0, thanks, yea I figured that
[12:17] <Me2resh> v_, Thanks :)
[12:17] <sidlet> I have a GeeForce4 4000 mx pci card, its listed as supported with The 1.0-96xx driver, when i attempt to boot the live cd, it says it has no useable screens. Anybody able to point me where i need to be reading on hwo to correct this error?
[12:18] <puppe> oh, ok. Where can I find a reference list of supported hardware?
[12:19] <kekos> Hi, I've installed Ubuntu studio but it's gave me an error it says that might be an error in xorg.conf, somebody knows how I can configurate that file?
[12:20] <milluska> hi there can anyone help with the wireless network configuration?
[12:21] <milluska> using ndiswrapper
[12:21] <slytherin> kekos: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-corg
[12:21] <T-SubWoof> I'm missing libSDL_ttf-2.0.so.0 because I can't install things without it on Ubuntu 7.04... :(
[12:21] <slytherin> kekos: xserver-xorg
[12:21] <mongolai> puppe, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[12:21] <kekos> slytherin - thanks
[12:21] <slytherin> milluska: Which wireless card are you using?
[12:21] <puppe> mongolai: thanks
[12:22] <mongolai> puppe, no prob. I think that's what you need.
[12:22] <T-SubWoof> How come Ubuntu 7.04 missing that file?
[12:22] <milluska> i think is broadcom
[12:23] <slytherin> milluska: broadcom which? paste the out put of command lspci on pastebin
[12:24] <Flannel> thomax_: What thigns are you installing unsuccessfully?
[12:24] <milluska> i think the chip/driver is bcm43xx

[12:27] <ubotu> recoy^: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:27] <recoy^> ok
[12:27] <slytherin> recoy^: There is no need to turn it on. Use sudo instead
[12:28] <recoy^> gotcha
[12:28] <T-SubWoof> This is crap. :(
[12:28] <Flannel> T-SubWoof: you need to install `libsdl-ttf2.0-0`, then you'll have that file.  It's not missing, you just don't have it yet.
[12:28] <recoy^> well im trying to run a dual boot and im having lots of problems following the steps on the ubuntu docs page
[12:28] <milluska> there is go :http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26863/
[12:28] <mongolai> recoy^, yea, it took me a little while to get used to it, but it erally is better
[12:28] <Flannel> recoy^: which page?
[12:28] <recoy^> thanks alot
[12:28] <recoy^> umm 1 sec
[12:28] <milluska> there you go
[12:28] <rausb0> !libsdl-ttf
[12:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about libsdl-ttf - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:28] <rausb0> !info libsdl-ttf
[12:29] <ubotu> Package libsdl-ttf does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[12:29] <Flannel> !info libsdl-ttf2.0-0
[12:29] <recoy^> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/How_to_dual-boot_Ubuntu_and_XP_after_installing_them_separately_on_two_HDs?highlight=%28boot%29%7C%28dual%29
[12:29] <ubotu> libsdl-ttf2.0-0: ttf library for Simple DirectMedia Layer with FreeType 2 support. In component main, is optional. Version 2.0.8-3build1 (feisty), package size 14 kB, installed size 76 kB
[12:29] <rausb0> T-SubWoof: got libsdl-ttf2.0-0 installed?
[12:29] <Flannel> T-SubWoof: you're installing stuff outside of package management, so you can't expect any of the benefits of package management (like dependency handling)
[12:29] <slytherin> milluska: Ok. It is broadcom 43xx. Now tell us what help you want
[12:29] <mongolai> recoy^, are both installed now?
[12:30] <recoy^> both are installed on separate drives
[12:30] <MrOtacon> Is KUbuntu really unstable for everyone else?
[12:30] <mongolai> recoy^, so really you just need to update grub to allow you to choose?
[12:30] <recoy^> yes  because
[12:31] <milluska> How can i set it?
[12:31] <recoy^> what happens is when both drives are present linuz wont boot
[12:31] <recoy^> linux*
[12:31] <recoy^> it just stops
[12:31] <Flannel> recoy^: stops where?
[12:31] <mongolai> that's weird
[12:32] <recoy^> when the unbuntu gui first pops up
[12:32] <recoy^> ubuntu doesnt know what to do when both drives are active
[12:32] <recoy^> so i had to unplug my windows
[12:32] <mongolai> are you in ubuntu now?
[12:32] <recoy^> yes
[12:33] <recoy^> im trying to get it to let me have a boot option
[12:33] <mongolai> and does windows start when both HDDs are plugged in?
[12:33] <Flannel> recoy^: Which GUI is that?  the loading bar?  Ubuntu can handle two harddrives easily.  WE've just gotta figure out what else is going on
[12:33] <recoy^> but im not sure how
[12:33] <recoy^> the loading bar yes
[12:34] <mongolai> can you pastebin /boot/grub/menu.lst?
[12:34] <slytherin> milluska: Do you see something called Restricted Drivers Manager in Administration menu?
[12:34] <milluska> yep
[12:35] <Brendan1> hey, so I used make to compile a kernel module rt61.ko
[12:35] <Brendan1> how do I install it now?
[12:35] <Brendan1> do I have to do something with modprobe?
[12:35] <Brendan1> or like copy it someplace?
[12:35] <slytherin> milluska: Open it. It should help you set up ndiswrapper
[12:35] <recoy^> mongolai:  when i past in term i get access denied
[12:35] <recoy^> even when sudo su
[12:35] <recoy^> paste*
[12:36] <SinnerG> wish my good luck.. backup finally complete.. gonna install ubuntu now :P
[12:36] <SinnerG> see ya all later (I hope ;))
[12:36] <mongolai> recoy^, ok. from a terminal type: gksudo gedit
[12:36] <ReServe2> How do I restart X?
[12:36] <Cromag> ctrl alt backspace
[12:36] <rausb0> Brendan1: first copy it to /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ then do depmod -a and then modprobe rt61
[12:36] <mongolai> this should open gedit with sudo
[12:37] <recoy^> ok got it
[12:37] <milluska> ok i try.To where should extract the files from bcm43xx?
[12:37] <mongolai> now navigate to /boot/grub/menu.lst
[12:37] <mongolai> and open it ;)
[12:37] <Brendan1> rausb0: thanks. What should I do with the old rt61.ko module I want to replace?
[12:37] <Brendan1> can I just rename it to rt61.ko.bak?
[12:38] <slytherin> milluska: Thing is that I don't have a bcm43xx card so I can't guide step by step. Use your instincts. :-)
[12:38] <rausb0> Brendan1: yeah, rename it
[12:38] <recoy^> recoy@recoy-desktop:~$ gksudo gedit
[12:38] <recoy^> (gedit:11976): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:
[12:38] <recoy^> Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.
[12:38] <Pinguino> I have a strange problem with Amarok on Feisty
[12:38] <mongolai> weird.
[12:38] <mongolai> hmmm
[12:38] <recoy^> pm?
[12:38] <rausb0> Brendan1: depmod / modprobe only search for files with .ko extension
[12:38] <slytherin> recoy^: Do you have more than one user on this PC?
[12:38] <recoy^> no only one
[12:38] <ReServe2> Ctrl + Alt + backspace does restart X?
[12:39] <CNTRLX> in ubuntu , what happens if i add debian 4.0 to repositories and install those packages instead?
[12:39] <slytherin> recoy^: Not physical user, user account.
[12:39] <Pinguino> After playing a few songs it suddenly claims there are no sound devices
[12:39] <recoy^> yes only one
[12:39] <rausb0> ReServe2: actually, ctrl+alt+backspace terminates the X server. gdm or kdm restarts it afterwards.
[12:39] <Gnea> CNTRLX: then your system breaks and dies
[12:39] <slytherin> recoy^: Is this the account you created during installation?
[12:39] <CNTRLX> hehe
[12:39] <CNTRLX> thaught so
[12:39] <recoy^> yes
[12:39] <predaeus> ReServe2, it is recommended to use "sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart" for that
[12:39] <mongolai> recoy^, can you sudo other programs or filed
[12:39] <mongolai> *files*
[12:39] <recoy^> havent tried sudo other programs
[12:40] <slytherin> recoy^: Then this is strange problem. By default first user can use sudo or gksu
[12:40] <CNTRLX> break the kernel?
[12:40] <recoy^> yeah.. thats why im really confused
[12:40] <recoy^> probably why i cant install wine ether LOL
[12:40] <mongolai> recoy^, Now I understand why you want the real su!
[12:40] <ReServe2> predaeus; ok, thanks. harder to remember than Ctrl + alt + backspace. It does not brake anything using the keys?
[12:40] <recoy^> yup
[12:41] <Rimaille> Hi all, i'm trying to install my pctv pro remote, lirc 0.8.2 packaged by ubuntu, but i cant get it working...
[12:41] <recoy^> any suggestions?
[12:41] <mongolai> recoy^, can you use the programs in the GNOME "System->Administration"?
[12:41] <ReServe2> Rimaille; to control pc?
[12:42] <predaeus> ReServe2, not sure, it could leave lock files for certain applications that would need to be removed to fix them. not sure if the "restart" way really prevents that. Make sure you close all applications before doing either method.
[12:42] <mongolai> such as Users and Groups?
[12:42] <recoy^> yes i can I.E.  device manager?
[12:42] <recoy^> yes i can
[12:42] <CNTRLX> i have my 4.0 installed on usb external hd how do i get ubuntu, on my 1st drive to reconise it in grub or grub floppy
[12:42] <ReServe2> predaeus; ok. perhaps I can make a bach-script or what they call it :)
[12:43] <mongolai> you can use "Users and Groups?
[12:43] <predaeus> ReServe2, "shell script" or "bash script", they call that batch file in windows
[12:43] <recoy^>  yes i can
[12:43] <Rimaille> ReServe2, sorry ! didnt manage to make it work by doing lircd --nodeamon, but it worked with the deamon
[12:43] <Brendan1> rausb0: ok, I think I did it. is there any way to check the version of the driver that's currently running?
[12:43] <Rimaille> actually, i can control my pc with my remote, thx
[12:43] <mongolai> recoy^, what users are there?
[12:43] <recoy^> just me recoy
[12:43] <rausb0> Brendan1: which driver?
[12:44] <recoy^> or wait
[12:44] <recoy^> when i click show all users and groups i get alot
[12:44] <mongolai> yea that's normal (so far)
[12:44] <recoy^> lol ok but ya as far as "real users" just me
[12:45] <T-SubWoof> Ok I got a game working/
[12:45] <ReServe2> Rimaille; I have the same remote. cool if you manage to get it working. weird if there was not a guide to make it work in linux.
[12:45] <Brendan1> rausb0: the rt61 wireless driver. It should've replaced the default ones with the nightly build from CVS.
[12:45] <rausb0> Brendan1: check the output of "dmesg"
[12:45] <mongolai> recoy^, well, I guess we'll have to try unlocking the root account!
[12:45] <sue07> whats the meaning of this error:dependency is not satisfiable:libssl0.9.6
[12:45] <recoy^> ok
[12:46] <mongolai> just a sec...
[12:46] <recoy^> ok
[12:46] <Rimaille> ReServe2, you managed to make it work, or do you want any help ? mine works perfectly now
[12:46] <ReServe2> predaeus; You seem like a guy that does know linux well. Do you know how I can make glxgears to output results. running glxgears command does not post results.
[12:46] <Brendan1> raubs0: sweet, that totally worked. I can't believe it swapped drivers without even renewing the IP address. Thanks.
[12:47] <rausb0> Brendan1: then you still have the old driver running
[12:48] <rausb0> Brendan1: i didnt know the old driver was still loaded
[12:48] <hammedhaaret> Hi. have do i make an install with a .bin file i downloaded?
[12:48] <ReServe2> Rimaille; Have not tried in linux yet, but works great in windows. I dont it connected to my linux computer yet. I am waiting until MCElinux is more stable :)
[12:48] <rausb0> Brendan1: you have to set down the ra0 interface, rmmod rt61 and then modprobe rt61
[12:48] <Rimaille> ReServe2, glxgears -printfps
[12:48] <mongolai> recoy^, ok. in a terminal try a " sudo passwd root " then a root password...
[12:48] <ReServe2> Rimaille; thank you
[12:49] <Brendan1> rausb0: should I reboot then? dmseg does include output related to the CVS version
[12:49] <rausb0> Brendan1: no need for reboot
[12:49] <recoy^> is ask for new unix pass
[12:49] <recoy^> it*
[12:49] <mongolai> yea give it a new password JUST for root
[12:49] <recoy^> ok so different ;)
[12:50] <sue07> anybody know how to fix this  error:dependency is not satisfiable:libssl0.9.6?
[12:50] <Brendan1> rausb0: how should I switch it to the new driver then? ifup/down?
[12:50] <recoy^> ok got the new pass
[12:50] <mongolai> now try " su "
[12:50] <Rimaille> ReServe2, the good config file for our pinnacle remote is in the ubuntu package : just do a : sudo cp /usr/share/lirc/remotes/pinnacle_systems/lircd.conf.pctv /etc/lirc/lircd.conf
[12:50] <rausb0> Brendan1: ifconfig ra0 down ; rmmod rt61 ; modprobe rt61
[12:50] <mongolai> but type in the NEW passwd
[12:51] <ReServe2> I got 1850 in glxgears. Not bad for a computer that was trashed.
[12:51] <recoy^> recoy@recoy-desktop:~$ su
[12:51] <recoy^> Password:
[12:51] <recoy^> root@recoy-desktop:/home/recoy#
[12:51] <mongolai> so you are root now?!
[12:51] <recoy^> i think so
[12:51] <recoy^> how can i check?
[12:52] <rausb0> recoy^: id
[12:52] <ReServe2> Rimaille; It is all there in the config?
[12:52] <mongolai> ok first,
[12:52] <recoy^> uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root) = yes!
[12:52] <mongolai> remember "Man who play in root eventually kill tree" ;P
[12:52] <vzduch> Evolution users to the front, please.. I have a bunch of old messages lying around in maildir format, how do I get these into Evolution? my thought is: make Evolution receive email from a local maildir.. could that be the way to go?
[12:52] <recoy^> LOL
[12:52] <mongolai> now try to pastebin /boot/grub/menu.lst
[12:52] <recoy^> ok lol thanks alot
[12:53] <EvilBro> My update manager gives the following error: "Could not initialize the package information"... how do I fix this? (is there a way to force it to get all package list or something?)
[12:53] <vzduch> mongolai: why try? either do it or leave it :D
[12:53] <puppe> .I'm using a AcerTravelMate6292 and dearly want to move over to Ubuntu. Unfortunately it don't seem to be supported, consulting this page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam
[12:53] <puppe> How can I find out if/when it will be?
[12:53] <puppe> Thanks for your reply
[12:53] <recoy^> root@recoy-desktop:/home/recoy# /boot/grub/menu.lst
[12:53] <recoy^> bash: /boot/grub/menu.lst: Permission denied
[12:53] <recoy^>  = NO WAY
[12:53] <jscinoz> If i have the choice of running games on the current X server or on their own X server, which should i do?
[12:53] <mongolai> vzduch, yea, you're right!
[12:53] <Rimaille> ReServe2, yes for the keys of your remotes (sry for my bad english, im french), but you have to tell lircd you use pinnacle in your /etc/lirc/hardware.conf :  DRIVER="pinsys" DEVICE="/dev/ttyS0"
[12:53] <Rimaille> doing that makes my lirc works perfect
[12:53] <vzduch> recoy^: cat /boot/grub/menu.lst
[12:53] <vzduch> copy the output to a pastebin of your choice
[12:54] <sue07> where to get libssl 0.9.6?
[12:54] <recoy^> ok i pasted it in and i got alot of stuff
[12:54] <recoy^> wow that sounded nub
[12:54] <mongolai> LOL
[12:54] <recoy^> =(
[12:54] <recoy^> lol
[12:54] <Ireal> lots of stuffs, tubes perhaps?
[12:54] <Brendan1> rausb0: ok, now it works. For some reason it's wlan0 now instead of ra0, but I don't suppose that makes any difference
[12:54] <rausb0> recoy^: you cannot run the menu.lst file
[12:54] <rausb0> recoy^: you have to edit it
[12:54] <recoy^> ok
[12:55] <recoy^> how to?
[12:55] <mongolai> well, It would help if we could see it...
[12:55] <rausb0> Brendan1: i think thats how the new driver is naming the interface
[12:55] <Prometheus_> How can i install new wifi drivers and use those instead of the ones that ubuntu uses as default?
[12:55] <recoy^> ok ill paste it all in
[12:55] <mongolai> or, now you can go by that website instructions.

[01:01] <recoy^> ok sorry
[01:01] <MrOtacon> also - does anyone know if it is possible to run a program as root, without it asking for password after i log in... only root can run it (kaid)

[01:03] <mongolai> no, no, I mean the first one, about 20 minutes ago. like how to dual boot on 2 separate drives.
[01:03] <recoy^> oh ok

[01:03] <T-SubWoof> Heh the games won't unstall.
[01:03] <mongolai> yea that on. lemme read it real quick...
[01:04] <recoy^> ok
[01:04] <erUSUL> MrOtacon: add acall to the program to /etc/rc.local
[01:05] <hammedhaaret> Hi... im trying to install this game... I've just answered yes to the license thing, and now it asks which java virtual machine i would like to use.. what should i answer? im pretty new to ubuntu so bare with me
[01:05] <MrOtacon> erUSUL: thanks
[01:06] <erUSUL> hammedhaaret: well... have you instaled a java virtual machine?
[01:06] <erUSUL> !java | hammedhaaret
[01:06] <ubotu> hammedhaaret: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[01:07] <hammedhaaret> erUSUL: uuhm...  probably not (: thx
[01:07] <mongolai> recoy^, actually, that seems pretty straightforward. can you follow those instructions yourself?
[01:07] <toogodoo> how DO ya install programs???
[01:08] <kitche> toogodoo: with synaptic or apt-get or aptitude
[01:08] <recoy^> yea but i awalys get permission denied
[01:08] <recoy^> ill try again
[01:08] <T-SubWoof> Ubuntu installer and uninstaller is screwup.
[01:08] <mongolai> recoy^, wait. maybe not...
[01:08] <mongolai> ...so easy...
[01:08] <kitche> T-SubWoof: what do you mean by screwup?
[01:08] <ubunToo> i have 40 gig usb device, can i extract to there the iso and boot from usb? and how do i boot from usb?
[01:08] <T-SubWoof> I can't uninstall games.
[01:09] <ubunToo> iso of kubuntu
[01:09] <Sergo> ubuntoo nope
[01:09] <mongolai> recoy^, you have to know which drive is the master and which is the slave
[01:09] <kitche> T-SubWoof: how did you install the game
[01:09] <ubunToo> ok :(
[01:09] <toogodoo> also is there s better distro than ubuntu..i have had to format 4 times in past 3 days tryin to get ubuntu to work- so i am receptive to real distros that work and aint loaded with terminal commands (i'm a gui guy)
[01:10] <Sergo> ubuntoo: i don' t know relly)
[01:10] <Sergo> you need to try
[01:10] <recoy^> linux master windows slave
[01:10] <ubunToo> but how do i boot from usb?
[01:10] <kitche> toogodoo: it's up to the user to decide whats better for them
[01:10] <recoy^> according to bios...
[01:10] <Sergo> ubuntoo: you have try already ?
[01:10] <T-SubWoof> cd ~
[01:10] <T-SubWoof> sudo sh ./ufoai-2.1.1-linux_hotfix2.run
[01:11] <ubunToo> now ill try, but  i dont think theres usb device option
[01:11] <sidlet> This is so great!
[01:11] <ubunToo> last time i checked there was only floppy hardisk and cd
[01:11] <Sergo> just try to know
[01:11] <Sergo> ubuntOo
[01:11] <Sergo> hmm
[01:11] <mongolai> recoy^, ok. cool
[01:11] <kitche> T-SubWoof: if you installed it that way then you have to find the uninstaller for it\
[01:11] <fred_> hello all back for another round today to try to get my apache+php+mysql going ... tried apache2 but only apache seems to work for me
[01:11] <mongolai> just a sec...
[01:11] <Sergo> i don't really know becouse never try it :)
[01:12] <kitche> T-SubWoof: since when you run a script like that ubuntu has nothing to do with it anymore
[01:12] <ubunToo> ok
[01:12] <Sergo> but i think yes
[01:12] <T-SubWoof> Then it is shitty
[01:12] <T-SubWoof> It nothing like windows.
[01:12] <kitche> T-SubWoof: most linux distros are like that since usually the .run file has a uninstall program just like in windows
[01:13] <hammedhaaret> erUSUL: hmmm... now im even more confused.  Documentation says there's already a 'free java' installed in ubuntu. guess i could use that one. so do i just write the path to freejava in my install? where should it be located? in /usr?
[01:13] <kitche> T-SubWoof: but any how ubuntu have a package for ufoai
[01:13] <T-SubWoof> I click on uninstaller and those won't do anything.
[01:13] <T-SubWoof> It fucked.
[01:13] <kitche> T-SubWoof: you have to run it the same way as you ran the .run script
[01:13] <toogodoo> fubar
[01:13] <kitche> !ohmy | T-SubWoof
[01:13] <ubotu> T-SubWoof: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[01:14] <kitche> T-SubWoof: so you would do ./uninstall
[01:14] <T-SubWoof> Just that?
[01:14] <kitche> T-SubWoof: yes where did you install the game at

[01:20] <mongolai> recoy^, yea, I'm back. Did you make the changes yet?
[01:20] <kitche> hammedhaaret: it might be in /usr/bin/
[01:20] <cotyrothery> kitche: it could not find it
[01:20] <kitche> T-SubWoof: just delete the folder then that would work
[01:20] <T-SubWoof> I can't.

[01:41] <ubotu> polopolo: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:41] <polopolo> Gnea: I ask the question :P
[01:41] <serishema-laptop> there's linux on playstation 3?
[01:41] <Gnea> polopolo: don't make me mad :)

[01:42] <Gnea> so what's your question?
[01:42] <polopolo> But get I have support on the playstation 3 version of ubuntu?
[01:43] <Gnea> polopolo: did you put the disc in the ps3 and boot it up?
[01:43] <serishema-laptop> maybe start by telling us what the problem you are having is?
[01:43] <pkundu> polopolo, is there linux for nds
[01:44] <evilfourzero> Okay, those playing issues pages for ogg didn't help one bit o.O
[01:44] <Gnea> polopolo: yes, we do support that, but most of the online documentation should get you up and running
[01:44] <polopolo> ok
[01:44] <Gnea> evilfourzero: what media player are you using?
[01:44] <polopolo> pkundu: nds?
[01:44] <pkundu> polopolo: nds = nintendo ds
[01:45] <polopolo> pkundu: as far as I know, not
[01:45] <evilfourzero> Gnea: I tried totem, mplayer, gxine, anythign I can think of
[01:45] <pkundu> polopolo: thx
[01:45] <Gnea> polopolo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PlayStation_3
[01:45] <Gnea> evilfourzero: oh, those are video players... is it an ogg vorbis or an ogg theora file?
[01:45] <evilfourzero> Gnea: How can I tell?
[01:46] <Gnea> evilfourzero: file filename.ogg
[01:46] <polopolo> there is for xbox(360) and playstation 3 vesrion
[01:46] <Gnea> evilfourzero: IOW, use the file command on the filename to see what it really is
[01:46] <evilfourzero> Gnea: It's Theora
[01:47] <Gnea> evilfourzero: mplayer should support it, myabe you don't have the correct codec installed - visit the mplayer homepage and look for the 'all' tarball that has the codec
[01:47] <evilfourzero> Gnea: k thanks

[01:53] <liquiddoom> What is the ubuntu server install's partition manager?
[01:53] <Vulcan> Hey.
[01:53] <liquiddoom> Is it partman?
[01:54] <cotyrothery> man that was close
[01:54] <Gnea> ?
[01:54] <cotyrothery> I had reconfigured it wrong
[01:54] <Gnea> aah
[01:54] <cotyrothery> I gave it 200 kb or video ram
[01:54] <cotyrothery> instead of 200 mb
[01:54] <DjViper> cotyrothery: did it blow up?
[01:54] <Gnea> it should autotect that
[01:55] <cotyrothery> no it did not blow up
[01:55] <cotyrothery> XD
[01:55] <cotyrothery> im glad I fixed it though
[01:55] <liquiddoom> Okay, I found the partition manager in ubiquity. yay apt-file
[01:56] <cotyrothery> 3d acceleration still fails
[01:56] <ub12> Does anyone here  do online gaming with ubuntu?
[01:56] <murc1> anyone willing to help a newb
[01:56] <Sambob> i play runescape thats about it lol
[01:56] <liquiddoom> Huh... the server installer used what appared to be an ncurses interface... but ubiquity wants to use gtk
[01:56] <cotyrothery> should I give my video ram more ram
[01:56] <cotyrothery> or what
[01:56] <ub12> Sambob what is runescape?
[01:56] <kitche> liquiddoom: yes that is correct since ubiquity needs X running
[01:57] <Sambob> its an online game on the internet
[01:57] <Sambob> mmorpg
[01:57] <kitche> ub12: full of cheaters :)
[01:57] <ub12> kitche, :) then I am not going there
 So then do you know what the server installcd used as an installer?
[01:58] <kitche> liquiddoom: it uses the debian installer
[01:58] <Sambob> whats full of cheaters?
 Ah... awesome, thanks
[01:58] <cotyrothery> weird
[01:58] <cotyrothery> it says in system info that distribution is debion
[01:58] <kitche> liquiddoom: that's what it's called since it's just a ncurse based installer
[01:59] <kitche> cotyrothery: ubuntu is based on debian
[01:59] <Gnea> cotyrothery: type this: lsb_release -a
[01:59] <cotyrothery> so then why not use debian then
[01:59] <t94xr> LOL
[01:59] <Gnea> oh man...
[01:59] <t94xr> he posed a very good question
[01:59] <kitche> cotyrothery: debian is not user friendly :)
[02:00] <t94xr> yes it is
[02:00] <cotyrothery> When I saw pics it was
[02:00] <t94xr> just not as user friendly as ubuntu
[02:00] <Gnea> cotyrothery: Ubuntu and Debian use the same package management system, and that's about where it ends
[02:00] <cotyrothery> hmm....
[02:00] <Gnea> cotyrothery: the packages themselves are not compatible back and forth since they all have different contents
[02:00] <cotyrothery> hmmm.....
[02:00] <Gnea> it ain't what's on the outside
[02:00] <Gnea> :)
[02:00] <cotyrothery> what ever you say
[02:01] <cotyrothery> why not go with the classics man...?
[02:01] <cotyrothery> XD
[02:01] <Gnea> yeah, debian's great, once you get it up and running
[02:01] <cotyrothery> well I like ubuntu to much to change
[02:02] <Gnea> same
[02:02] <cotyrothery> iv ran a few distros in virtaul machine
[02:02] <Vulcan> Can anyone tell me why all my windows (whenever I start one) start behind the main window? o.O
[02:02] <cotyrothery> and I think I will stick with ubuntu
[02:02] <Stormx2> Vulcan: "The main window"?
[02:02] <serishema-laptop> for best performace with linux software raid1 i should have each of the two drives on a seperate ide channel, correct?
[02:02] <Frogzoo> Vulcan: you have set the main window to 'always be on top' ?
[02:02] <kitche> cotyrothery: all distros are the same just have to figure out the package manager and the layout and you know all
[02:02] <Tremitos> hey
[02:03] <cotyrothery> yea
[02:03] <Vulcan> I don't know.
[02:03] <liquiddoom> serishema-laptop: yes
[02:03] <Stormx2> serishema-laptop: Yeah, different IDE cable
[02:03] <cotyrothery> well im sticking with ubuntu and that's it
[02:03] <serishema-laptop> cool
[02:03] <cotyrothery> no ands or buts
[02:03] <cotyrothery> or there all the same talk
[02:03] <Vulcan> Say this chat is on top. When I load Beryl's Settings Manager, it's behind the chat.
[02:03] <Vulcan> If I have Firefox open, and I want to load the Downloads Tool, it goes behind it.
[02:03] <Stormx2> Vulcan: Sounds like a settings needs altering :)
[02:03] <Frogzoo> Vulcan: right click the title bar 'always on top' uncheck
[02:04] <serishema-laptop> i'm moving over to linux as a web servering an file serving platform
[02:04] <Vulcan> Um, that option isn't there?
[02:04] <serishema-laptop> hopefully
[02:04] <Stormx2> Vulcan: Are you under ubuntu gnome?
[02:04] <liquiddoom> serishema-laptop: Ubuntu's server edition is downright amazing for that. It just works, and it works great. I love it
[02:04] <serishema-laptop> that's what i'm trying to run
[02:04] <Tremitos> I'll soon find out
[02:04] <Gnea> been through redhat, slackware, gentoo, debian, ubuntu, dsl, freebsd, netbsd, openbsd, knoppix, kanotix, solaris... man, i could go on...
[02:04] <Vulcan> ...I should be. Though I've loaded Beryl.
[02:05] <Stormx2> Vulcan: have a look through the beryl settings... it should be there somewhere.
[02:05] <serishema-laptop> liquiddoom: i decided to go with ubuntu server cos of the auto lamp setup option
[02:05] <Gurpartap> What to use to convert sample rate(and/or bitrate) of an MP3 file?
[02:05] <liquiddoom> serishema-laptop: Yeah, it rocks
[02:06] <madinfo__> hi
[02:06] <Stormx2> serishema-laptop: A lamp setup on ordinary ubuntu is only one command away, for the record.
[02:06] <serishema-laptop> can /boot be on the raid1 or do i have to have a seperate /boot partition and copy it over manually so that both drives are bootable?
[02:06] <Stormx2> Gurpartap: transcode it? Not sure, maybe sound-converter will do it?
[02:06] <liquiddoom> serishema-laptop: I believe that /boot needs to be seperate
[02:06] <Gurpartap> Stormx2, thanks, trying
[02:06] <Stormx2> Gurpartap: Remember you will lose a significant amount of quality.
[02:06] <serishema-laptop> ok cool
[02:07] <Gnea> !raid | serishema-laptop
[02:07] <ubotu> serishema-laptop: Raid and LVM --> very easy guide for alternate CD : http://users.piuha.net/martti/comp/ubuntu/raid.html Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[02:07] <Gurpartap> Stormx2, oh?
[02:07] <serishema-laptop> thanks Gnea
[02:07] <Gnea> :)
[02:07] <madinfo__> can somebody see why this appens ? -> http://dpaste.com/12822/
[02:07] <Stormx2> Gurpartap: Yeah. If you did Lossless -> 192kbps -> 128kbps, the 128kbps would sound a lot worse than if you did Lossless -> 128kbps
[02:07] <trecekladon> im new to ubuntu... and im lookin for a good media player any suggestions?
[02:08] <Stormx2> Gurpartap: It bothers me, but I'm something of an audiophile.
[02:08] <madinfo__> trecekladon: kaffeine
[02:08] <Stormx2> trecekladon: What are you used to?
[02:08] <Stormx2> trecekladon: Winamp? Foobar2000?
[02:08] <trecekladon> somethin that will acually give me sound lol
[02:08] <trecekladon> winamp
[02:08] <madinfo__> trecekladon: kaffeine
[02:08] <Gurpartap> Stormx2, current audio is 16.0 kHz, want to convert to 11kHz, or its multiple.
[02:08] <DjViper> trecekladon: amarok for music, vlc for video
[02:08] <Ireal> mplayer/vlc
[02:08] <Gurpartap> 22 or 44
[02:08] <Stormx2> Check out Audacious, trecekladon
[02:09] <Stormx2> trecekladon: That's a winamp 2 clone, very good.
[02:09] <trecekladon> how do i go about getting that?
[02:09] <Gnea> trecekladon: xmms
[02:09] <Gnea> apt-get install xmms
[02:09] <Stormx2> Gnea: Old, crap.
[02:09] <Stormx2> Gnea: Audacious is just XMMS + GTK2 + Actually good.
[02:09] <Ireal> xmms, beep-media-player, or if you're more the collection type of guy use juk or amarok or rhythmbox
[02:09] <Gnea> Stormx2: xmms is not crap.
[02:09] <Stormx2> trecekladon: Check out www.audacious-media-player.org
[02:09] <Ireal> or banshee :)
[02:10] <Stormx2> Gnea: okay, not crap. but inferior if you're looking for GTK2 goodness.
[02:10] <nafik> hi, i have a question. i am using gnome. external hdd and cd/dvd have icons on my desktop, where can i turn off this?
[02:10] <trecekladon> thx =D
[02:10] <Gnea> Stormx2: i see now how it's inferior if it plays files back and doesn't crash.
[02:10] <Stormx2> Gnea: Admittedly it has more plugins, but thats about the only advantage.
[02:10] <Gnea> Stormx2: s/now/not/g
[02:10] <kitche> Stormx2: techinally audacious is junk as well since it's basred on xmms code but instead of gtk1 it's gtk2
[02:10] <Ireal> yes, years of development makes it inferior
[02:10] <H3lp> Hello! i'm facing a problem with my screen resolution! ive got edgy eft installed a while back and yesterday got my screen messing up so i switched it with an older one i had laying around till i get a newer one! but the prob is on startup the login screen disapears i cant see it at all i gotta enter my username and password blindly and then it shows...
[02:10] <Ireal> obviously. ;P
[02:10] <Stormx2> Gnea: ZOMG it has a GUI? o.O Thats sooo extra.
[02:11] <Gnea> Ireal: lol
[02:11] <mongolai> when /boot/grub/menu.lst is edited does grub need to be re-installed?
[02:11] <nafik> mongolai: no
[02:11] <Gnea> Stormx2: why don't you let the user make his or her own choice?
[02:11] <mongolai> ok thanks
[02:11] <Stormx2> Gnea: I did.
[02:12] <jokerwitte> hi all: i installed 7.04 yesterday, now looking for bit torrent. it says it's installed already, but i does not appear under "applications" -- where can i find it?
[02:12] <Gnea> i'm at the audacious site now, it looks just like xmms
[02:12] <nafik> i am using gnome. external hdd and cd/dvd have icons on my desktop, where can i turn off this?
[02:12] <Stormx2> Gnea: Yup. They're both Winamp 2 clones.
[02:12] <Stormx2> Gnea: I explained that earlier.
[02:12] <greg007> sudo apt-get install azureus
[02:12] <Ireal> jokerwitte: i don't know which one you installed but you could use ktorrent or azureus (i use the latter)
[02:12] <Vulcan> Hey, how can I stop Beryl?
[02:12] <Stormx2> jokerwitte: See what greg007 said.
[02:13] <Gnea> Stormx2: still failing to see how either are 'crap' and how 'old' is not good...
[02:13] <H3lp> any1 could help out with my resolution issue?!
[02:13] <Stormx2> Gnea: Not older in terms of how long its been in development. Old in the toolkits/dialogs it uses. Personally I can't stand them, but if you prefer GTK1 that's fine :-)
[02:13] <trecekladon> does audacious play movies?\
[02:13] <jokerwitte> it came with the installation pack... where do i enter the sudo thing?
[02:13] <Gnea> H3lp: did you put a new monitor on it?
[02:13] <greg007> vulcan: in the rigth upper corner (by def) click on the beryl icon and change window manager to metacity
[02:14] <Ireal> trecekladon: check out vlc :)
[02:14] <Stormx2> Gnea: By my reasoning though, a new user would be more appreciative of something which looks like the rest of their desktop and not ugly grey.
[02:14] <H3lp> gnea yes i did
[02:14] <DarkED> how do i add themes to compiz via feisty's 'desktop effects' ?
[02:14] <Stormx2> trecekladon: VLC for movies :)
[02:14] <Gnea> Stormx2: yeah, actually i do. gtk1 has less of a memory footprint than gtk2 or gnome does :)
[02:14] <trecekladon> sweet
[02:14] <Stormx2> Gnea: Fair enough then :D
[02:14] <Vulcan> Thanks.
[02:14] <H3lp> gnea : yes i changed my monitor..
[02:15] <Gnea> H3lp: ok, you may need to reconfigure X to use it then: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:15] <H3lp> gnea : and its done1?
[02:15] <Gnea> Stormx2: ok, then by your reasoning, an EFL-based media player would be the best :)
[02:15] <nafik> where can i turn off creating shorcuts to external HDD, cd/dvd on my desktop?
[02:16] <Gnea> H3lp: i just told you how
[02:16] <Sevk> FIRESTARTERSUN RPC PORTMAP?
[02:16] <Stormx2> Gnea: EFL? That to do with enlightenment?
[02:16] <Stormx2> Sevk: Uhhhhh?
[02:16] <Gnea> Stormx2: yeah, fastest graphics libraries around
[02:16] <Sevk> can you see my words?
[02:16] <Sevk> FIRESTARTERSUN RPC PORTMAP?
[02:16] <Ireal> Sevk: i'm not too good with kanji ;P
[02:16] <Gnea> Sevk: yes
[02:16] <Stormx2> Gnea: Ah yeah. I used a live CD with enlightenment on it. Very nice.
[02:16] <Sevk> my english is pool
[02:17] <ompaul> Sevk, we only do english here ..
[02:17] <Gnea> Stormx2: i run E17 fulltime on dual-displays
[02:17] <greg007> poor u mean?
[02:17] <ompaul> Sevk, where are you from?
[02:17] <Ireal> puddle or swimmingpool?
[02:17] <Sevk> china
[02:17] <vzduch> can someone tell me where Evolution stores its config? it's not in ~/.evolution/
[02:17] <Ireal> Sevk: you're doing just fine, just try to ask what you want to ask :)
[02:17] <nafik> vzduch: CZE?
[02:17] <Sevk> thank you
[02:17] <vzduch> nafik: no, GER
[02:18] <Sevk> what is sun-rpc portmap
[02:18] <Gnea> Stormx2: the EFL-based player is still in development, however, so it'll be some time before it's ready for the masses
[02:18] <nafik> vzduch: i am from CZE, in Czech language "vzduch" means something like "wind"
[02:18] <greg007> sevk try google
[02:18] <vzduch> I know
[02:18] <ndee> I wanna build myself a little home-server with an ultra low power cpu etc, what can you guys recommend? It should be reeeeeeeally really small.
[02:18] <Sevk> my firestarter stop sum data from other IP
[02:19] <Sevk> some data
[02:19] <vzduch> basically means 'air' and can have a number of connotations, I guess ;)
[02:19] <nafik> you're right, my bad...
[02:20] <ompaul> Sevk, it is an nfs thing
[02:20] <serishema-laptop> okay got my raid setup configured
[02:20] <Liquinn> hi
[02:20] <Liquinn> any ops here?
[02:20] <serishema-laptop> apparently /boot on raid is okay for mirroring
[02:20] <serishema-laptop> but not anything else
[02:20] <Frogzoo> Liquinn: ops neva sleep
[02:20] <Liquinn> ok
[02:21] <Stormx2> xD
[02:21] <vzduch> I'd love to learn Czech, only I haven't found a good resource so far
[02:21] <Stormx2> What happened with Liquinn? o.O
[02:21] <boyalex> right folk,s, can I have your ear on the subject of backups... or at least a link?

[02:23] <trecekladon> ok i cant find universe repository to turn on while in search
[02:23] <fschulze> hey! I'm not sure what happend, but my ubuntu installation doesn't resolve any domain names anymore. I can ping ip addresses, but for all names I get unknown host. any tips what I can look at to fix this? It's a server installation, so no UI, but I have direct access.
[02:23] <boyalex> does keep deal with burning to dvd?
[02:23] <mike3_> Where are modules, and services loaded upon boot?
[02:23] <kitche> fschulze: check /etc/resolv.conf to check to see if you have any nameservers
[02:24] <kitche> mike3_: what do you mean?
[02:24] <fschulze> kitche: I have, and that one is working for another computer in the same network
[02:24] <Lattyware> Hey all
[02:24] <fschulze> kitche: can I try dierctly from ubuntu somehow?
[02:24] <Lattyware> Having a problem
[02:24] <trecekladon> anyone know how to turn on your universe repository?
[02:24] <Jammer> mike3_, /etc/rcX.d directories start all the daemons
[02:24] <Lattyware> My default gateway won't change.
[02:25] <ari_stress> hello all, i'm stumped on doing network install of 7.04
[02:25] <recoy^> hello
[02:25] <mongolai> recoy^, did it work?
[02:25] <fschulze> kitche: oh, wait
[02:25] <recoy^> hell ya dude ur 1337 in my book
[02:25] <ari_stress> the installer is looking for [Sat Jun 23 19:14:43 2007]  [error]  [client 192.168.1.100]  File does not exist: /srv/www/htdocs/pub/dists/feisty/restricted/debian-installer
[02:25] <kitche> Lattyware: is the interface down when you change the gateway?
[02:25] <mongolai> sweet, thank god!
[02:25] <fschulze> kitche: that file is dynamically generated and it has nothing in it except the comment
[02:25] <ari_stress> the debian-installer is not there...
[02:25] <recoy^> thanks alot i just wish i knew what you did so i could learn
[02:25] <Lattyware> I open the network manager, and try and change it, and it is 192.168.2.122 instead of 192.168.2.120 again.
[02:25] <Lattyware> kitche: No.
[02:25] <kitche> fschulze: then that's why :)
[02:26] <recoy^> btw how do u copy paste my name in chat?
[02:26] <mike3_> Jammer, you don't need to add it to to a script like Gentoo does via rc-update ?
[02:26] <mike3_> Jammer, if it's in those directories it's just auto loaded by default?
[02:26] <fschulze> kitche: I looked at original in the /etc/resolveconv/resolv.conf.d
[02:26] <mongolai> start typing the name, then hit the tab key.
[02:26] <fschulze> kitche: why is that file not updated anymore? it worked some time ago
[02:26] <mongolai> reco <tab> does this: recoy^
[02:26] <fschulze> kitche: what can I check?
[02:26] <kitche> mike3_: if it's set up correctly yes and in Gentoo you don't need to run rc-update for it either
[02:26] <recoy^> mongolai: sweet
[02:27] <mongolai> recoy^, msg me again
[02:27] <mike3_> kitche, yes you do. You need to add it to the default or boot section
[02:27] <kitche> fschulze: probably because the dhcp server isn't giving out the nameserver
[02:27] <mike3_> i've been running gentoo for about 3 years
[02:27] <failbit> hi, what channel do i have to go for compiz-fusion?
[02:27] <kitche> mike3_: ok if you sya so I never used rc-update on Gentoo
[02:27] <fschulze> kitche: I don't use dhcp
[02:27] <noiesmo> !effects | failbit
[02:27] <ubotu> failbit: For help with Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects
[02:27] <kitche> fschulze: then /etc/resolv.conf should have nameservers in it if you put them in
[02:27] <failbit> thank you
[02:28] <mike3_> kitche, yah gentoo doesn't contain rc.* directories
[02:28] <kitche> fschulze: it's only dynamically generated if you have dhcp server
[02:28] <mike3_> just init.d
[02:28] <boyalex> is keep the best option for what I want.. just looking at the homepage and it's a little.. content-light
[02:28] <kitche> mike3_: your point being like I told you I have never used rc-update on Gentoo and it always worked
[02:28] <mike3_> kitche, so to disable a service upon boot you'd have to just chmod on it i guess?
[02:28] <fschulze> kitche: so I edit that file directly? even though the comment says I shouldn't?
[02:28] <kitche> fschulze: or edit the original but without dhcp you won't get auto nameservers
[02:29] <kitche> fschulze: you have ot add them in manually but if /etc/resolv.conf is just a comment then you don't have any nameservers
[02:29] <Lattyware> kitche: I put it down and changed it, still doesn't work
[02:29] <kitche> mike3_: not in /etc/rcX.d
[02:29] <Lattyware> oh, actually, it does.
[02:29] <Lattyware> Thanks
[02:29] <kitche> mike3_: in /etc/init.d you can chmod it though
[02:29] <mike3_> kitche, Ok got'cha.
[02:29] <Jammer> mike3_, usually the /etc/rcX.d contains symlink to /etc/init.d ... so you would remove the symlink
[02:30] <Jammer> X being the runlevel
[02:30] <mike3_> ok ubuntu is different from what I'm used to. Seems ubuntu is more of the standard linux way
[02:30] <kitche> Jammer: never remove a symlink from /etc/rcX.d
[02:30] <fschulze> kitche: the nameserver is set up in original
[02:30] <kitche> Jammer: just have to rename the symlink
[02:30] <kitche> mike3_: there is no standard linux way there is either Sys-V whihc ubuntu uses or BSD-style
[02:31] <[buda] > Yo! I have a some problem with my video driver! Is there any way to set up my S3 Trio3D/2X video card to run properly, although there's no official driver for linux?
[02:31] <Sevk> how to disable quit and join message here
[02:31] <kitche> boyalex: usually admins make scripts to back things up themselves with Linux
[02:31] <mike3_> kitche, Well which would Gentoo be for instance?
[02:31] <kitche> Sevk: client?
[02:31] <fschulze> kitche: I have added it to base now and that works, not sure that's the correct way to do it.
[02:31] <goldcode> was wondering if anyone knows about sporadic network problems with the wireless ipw3945
[02:31] <Sevk> exp  tosca2 has quit (Client Quit)
[02:31] <kitche> mike3_: a mix I believe
[02:32] <phr0stbyte> All things FTP have stopped working on my box. Does anyone have any ideas?
[02:32] <mike3_> kitche, BSD you add your services in rc.conf
[02:32] <mike3_> at least in freebsd
[02:32] <kitche> mike3_: /etc/rc.d is bsd style with no symlinks in /etc/init.d to /etc/rcX.d
[02:32] <mike3_> got'cha..
[02:33] <boyalex> kitche: I appreciate that backing up app data in a commercial env will involve a backup server with RAID volume snapshots or whatever... but backing up home user data to removable media seems to be a bit of a pita... also there doesn't seem to be any 'mksysb' (AIX) equivalent at all (bare-metal restore of OS (rootvg, in AIX speak))... which considering how apt works could be really really nice and streamlines
[02:33] <mike3_> I really gotta admit though. I'm impressed with Ubuntu. The ease of installation. I don't have to wait 48 hours to install a base system. :)
[02:33] <boyalex> *streamlined
[02:33] <Sevk> how to hide this : << [buda]  has quit (Client Quit)>>
[02:33] <Sevk> have any settings?
[02:33] <jokerwitte> hi guys: how do i find bit torrent (which came with the 7.04 distribution of ubuntu) but does not show up under applications?
[02:34] <kitche> Sevk: as I said what client
[02:34] <boyalex> and all the work's nearly been done for them... (mondo)
[02:34] <goldcode> @jokerwitte use ktorrent
[02:34] <ertan> Ercin_Celiktenli : hellop
[02:34] <jokerwitte> how so?
[02:34] <Bassetts> where do I put plugins for irssi in ubuntu?
[02:34] <Sevk> XChat-GNOME 0.16
[02:35] <ertan> hi !
[02:35] <kitche> boyalex: it's very easy to backup files
[02:35] <kitche> !backup | boyalex
[02:35] <ubotu> boyalex: 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
[02:35] <kitche> boyalex: myself I just amke an image of my whole system with partimage
[02:35] <boyalex> kitche: so for weekly/arbitary incremental and say, monthly full backups to removable media (dvdr/ram) - what do you suggest
[02:36] <boyalex> kitche: yes, that what i've resorted to for bare-metal restores... but it does require booting from seperate paritition.. and doesn't deal with backing up large amounts of mostly static data (ie - my mp3 collection)
[02:36] <jrib> Bassetts: ~/.irssi/scripts/   you mean scripts?
[02:37] <Bassetts> jrib, yes, i made a folder called scripts in ~/.irssi but it keeps saying script not found
[02:37] <jrib> Bassetts: how are you trying to load it?
[02:37] <fschulze> kitche: thx for your time
[02:37] <Bassetts> /script load exaile_irssi.pl
[02:38] <jrib> Bassetts: does it work if you omit the ".pl"?
[02:38] <Bassetts> jrib, no
[02:39] <marfeath> I'm trying to get postgresql in ubuntu and it is not working - "Your PHP installation does not support PostgreSQL. You need to recompile PHP using the --with-pgsql configure option."  Am I missing something?
[02:39] <kitche> boyalex: I heard rsync is good for what you want
[02:39] <jrib> Bassetts: that should work, does it tab complete it?
[02:39] <Bassetts> jrib, no
[02:40] <Ireal> marfeath: yes, install php5-pgsql
[02:40] <Sevk> i'll try xchat ..
[02:40] <Otacon22> exist a command to shutdown without be root?
[02:40] <marfeath> Ireal: hah, actually I just figured it out, I needed to reload apache after I did that.  Thanks though
[02:41] <boyalex> kitche: not as I understand it... rsync synchronises two directories, locally or remotely
[02:41] <Otacon22> !shutdown
[02:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about shutdown - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:41] <kitche> Otacon22: sudo halt ubuntu uses sudo
[02:41] <Ireal> marfeath: d'oh! ;P
[02:41] <Otacon22> without sudo nothing?
[02:41] <jrib> Bassetts: check spelling (it's probably case sensitive) and try a different script
[02:41] <kitche> boyalex: then you never used rsync to it's fullest then
[02:42] <Ireal> isn't there a group in which you can place a user to allow him to perform halt ?
[02:42] <dchky> Now I'm as annoyed as Sevk, Xchat has no obvious way to switch off join and quit messages.
[02:42] <Bassetts> jrib, ok
[02:42] <kitche> Ireal: halt can only be performed by admin/root
[02:42] <Sevk> o tks
[02:42] <kitche> Ireal: you could limit the user to only use halt with sudo powers
[02:43] <phr0stbyte> FTP stopped working on this box. Does anyone have any ideas?
[02:43] <Ireal> kitche: i must have remembered incorrectly ^_^
[02:43] <dchky> /etc/init.d/ftpd status ? maybe?
[02:43] <kitche> dchky Sevk: I only know for irssi it might owrk in xcaht and xchat-gnome but not sure /ignore #ubuntu +JOINS +PARTS +QUITS
[02:43] <boyalex> kitche: so rsync can deal with writing the difference between my live files, the last full backups and n* incremental backups to a dvdr?
[02:43] <dchky> Thanks, will try that.
[02:44] <bidossessi> hi which version of ubuntu can i use as a media center (eg linuxMCE)
[02:44] <tck> My Ubuntu database file was corrupt 'http://hwdb.ubuntu.com/?xml=bc719949134e03d8b947237e67679c70' how do I re-send it?
[02:45] <SinnerG> I'm on ubuntu now, but wine is giving me an headache.. :/
[02:45] <kitche> boyalex: yes look up rsync snapshot backups but there is not really a easy way to backup without writing a script yourself to do it
[02:45] <SinnerG> beryl works nice btw :)
[02:45] <tck> bidossessi, http://sourceforge.net/projects/ubuntummc/
[02:46] <bidossessi> thx
[02:46] <binks> bidossessi: any pos even the server version if you have a ff card

[02:46] <SinnerG> wine: wineprefixcreate failed while creating '/home/sinnerg/.wine'.
[02:46] <SinnerG> any suggestions ?

[02:46] <Sevk> thank you all
[02:47] <nandovieira> hi. How can I install openssl on ubuntu feisty?
[02:47] <tck> binks, nope
[02:47] <phr0stbyte> dchky: phr0stbyte@localhost:~$ /etc/init.d/ftpd-ssl status
[02:47] <phr0stbyte> bash: /etc/init.d/ftpd-ssl: No such file or directory
[02:47] <Frogzoo> SinnerG: don't use the ubuntu wine repo which is dated, use the budgetdedicated repo mentioned in the ubuntu wiki doc
[02:47] <marfeath> what is a good text based postgresql client?
[02:47] <dchky> ah thanks, sorry I don't run ftp, but thought it'd be close to that.
[02:47] <SinnerG> frogzoo: I'm using the deb from winehq
[02:47] <tck> binks, saw an excellent vid the other day on youtube of a guy comparing MCE on ubuntu to windows MCE, the diff. was mindblowing
[02:47] <dissection> I'm using Ubuntu 7.04 (kernel 2.6.20-15-generic). I need to edit /etc/wvdial.conf but its read-only. What do I need to do?
[02:47] <SinnerG> well, using their repo that is
[02:48] <nafik> i am using gnome. external hdd and cd/dvd have icons on my desktop, where can i turn off this?
[02:48] <kitche> nandovieira: it should be installed by default if not it would be sudo apt-get install openssl
[02:48] <kitche> nafik: gconf-editor
[02:48] <binks> yep i still pref vdr but cant get sasc-ng to setup
[02:48] <nandovieira> kitche: ok. I'll try it ;)
[02:48] <tck> dissection, chmod u+w /etc/wvdial.conf
[02:48] <nafik> kitche: and where exactly in gconf-editor?
[02:49] <kitche> nafik: no clue I don't use gnome but have gconf installed since a program I have installed needs it but I know that it's in there someplace
[02:49] <nafik> kitche: ok, thank you so much
[02:49] <dissection> tck, thanks. And after I finish editing it, do I need to type anything else?
[02:50] <Furioso> hi guys gedit did not start with sudo ^^??
[02:50] <boyalex> kitche: thanks for you time
[02:51] <larson9999> the mic on my usb camera works in ekiga just fine.  but i can't figure out how to get other things to use it.  for instance gtk-recordmydesktop.  anyone know how to do that?
[02:51] <tck> dissection, save it i guess
[02:51] <mike3_> How do you pronounce Feisty /
[02:51] <mike3_> ?
[02:51] <serishema-laptop> gah. it failed to boot.
[02:51] <Gnea> FIE-ST-EE
[02:51] <Ireal> Gnea: really? o_O
[02:52] <Gnea> it isn't FIST-EE :)
[02:52] <serishema-laptop> i'll have to do it again and not screw up the raid config this time
[02:52] <Ireal> i always thought it was fai - stie :P
[02:52] <spo0nman2> Hi
[02:52] <tarelerulz> I have usb exteral sound card and I can't see to get all my app to play the sound card help?
[02:52] <binks> f eye stie
[02:53] <spo0nman2> Why can't I find breezy in the archives?
[02:53] <Ireal> binks: misa like that one :)

[02:53] <scorp123> Hi all
[02:53] <Gnea> !sound | tarelerulz
[02:53] <ubotu> tarelerulz: 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).

[02:53] <PriceChild> spo0nman2, breezy has reached End of Life
[02:53] <PriceChild> spo0nman2, please upgrade to dapper
[02:53] <koen_> hi. for using a nvidia card (go 7600) with compiz, do i need the restricted or the open source driver?
[02:54] <spo0nman2> PriceChild, that's ok. I'm not asking anyone to help me ... my hardware cannot run dapper.
[02:54] <PriceChild> koen_, both will work fine.
[02:54] <Gnea> koen_: restricted
[02:54] <dchky> It'll work better with the restricted driver.
[02:54] <koen_> thx
[02:54] <PriceChild> koen_, if you want 3d acceleration for games then you will want restricted
[02:54] <spo0nman2> PriceChild, all i ask is old software to be there.
[02:54] <spo0nman2> PriceChild, This is really annoying.
[02:54] <PriceChild> koen_, however, using the restricted driver means that suspend, resume, hibernate and power management won't work well
[02:54] <PriceChild> spo0nman2, do you know how much it costs to keep that on servers? ;)
[02:54] <Gnea> PriceChild: it'll work like utter $&*( with the open source driver
[02:55] <spo0nman2> PriceChild, I run quite a bit of servers. I have a fair idea.
[02:55] <spo0nman2> disk is cheap.
[02:55] <spo0nman2> PriceChild, this is bizzare.
[02:55] <liquiddoom> It's the bandwidth that costs you, really
[02:55] <Gnea> spo0nman2: but bandwidth isn't always
[02:55] <PriceChild> Gnea, it "works" perfectly fine. Power management, resume and hibernate are broken on restricted
[02:55] <spo0nman2> PriceChild, I can still access potato archives.
[02:55] <koen_> okay thx PriceChild
[02:55] <PriceChild> spo0nman2, Breezy was supported for 18 months... please upgrade. EOD really?
[02:55] <spo0nman2> Gnea, you're basically annoying your own early adapters.
[02:56] <koen_> what package do i need for the correct restricted driver (using AIXGL and not GLX)
[02:56] <spo0nman2> PriceChild, this particular hardware cannot run dapper. what am i suppossed to do?
[02:56] <Gnea> spo0nman2: get with the program, change is constant, didn't they tell you that?
[02:56] <Gnea> spo0nman2: what hardware, exactly?
[02:56] <PriceChild> spo0nman2, will it work with an upgrade from breezy instead of fresh install?
[02:56] <spo0nman2> Gnea, yeah! but removing content isn't exactly is helping anyone.
[02:56] <PriceChild> spo0nman2, your old settings might save it
[02:57] <Maxx84> hi everyone! how do i change the default init?
[02:58] <rouslan> What does this mean?:"Jun 22 14:35:22 webserver zmd: ShutdownManager (WARN): Going to sleep, waking up at 06/23/2007 12:55:22"
[02:58] <spo0nman2> PriceChild, Gnea This is not something that you can defend. this is really stupid ... you can encourage people to upgrade.I run feisty on mynew laptop but ... I guess I really should go back to debian.
[02:58] <Maxx84> (i used to edit the inittab on fedora4)
[02:58] <ompaul> Maxx84, there is 0 (off) 1 (single user) and 2 (3,4,5, are all the same as 2) and 6 (reboot) now what was your question againt
[02:58] <nivekc1> im going to get a nvidia card since it seems ati doesnt support linux very well who is a good manufac for nvidia/
[02:58] <Gnea> spo0nman2: you still haven't answered the question.
[02:59] <koen_> what package do i need for the correct restricted driver (using AIXGL and not GLX, if possible)
[02:59] <dissection> chmod u+w /etc/wvdial.conf <--- I typed this but it said operation not permitted.. What do I need to do to be able to edit /etc/wvdial.conf?
[02:59] <PriceChild> spo0nman2, I suggest backing up and attempting an upgrade
[02:59] <kitche> koen_: for what card?
[02:59] <Mark_> hey
[02:59] <PriceChild> spo0nman2, please don't complain about breezy being gone. It reached end of life, you were warned. We don't owe anything.
[02:59] <Gnea> spo0nman2: this is a laptop? what make/model is the laptop? might be able to fix it...
[02:59] <kitche> dissection: gksu gedit /etc/wvdial.conf for gui or sudo nano /etc/wvdial.conf for cli
[03:00] <Maxx84> ompaul: which file do i need to edit on ubuntu to start with the cli instead of the gui?
[03:00] <kitche> Gnea: funny he didn't sya it's a laptop he said it's a server
[03:00] <spo0nman2> Gnea, I've been running debian since 1998. I guess I know what change means. It never meant this. I revisit a box after a year and it's unusable.
[03:00] <Gnea> spo0nman2: you're right, there isn't anything to defend, so there's no use.
[03:00] <koen_> nvidia go 7600
[03:00] <koen_> kitche nvidia go 7600
[03:00] <kitche> koen_: umm maybe nvidia-glx-legacy
[03:00] <Gnea> spo0nman2: i've been running debian since '97, they're 2 entirely different projects.
[03:00] <spo0nman2> PriceChild, Gnea Thanks for you time.
[03:01] <Temporo> Hi.
[03:01] <Sevk> how to register nickname ,if my nickname and passwd is  < nick nick >
[03:01] <koen_> legacy? why not the recent one. This is one of the newest cards...
[03:01] <PriceChild> !register | Sevk
[03:01] <ubotu> Sevk: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[03:01] <Temporo> How do i get the Live cd to boot with just commandline?
[03:01] <Sevk> !register | Sevk
[03:01] <Mark_> has anyone tried the new Compiz and Beryl
[03:01] <Gnea> spo0nman2: the bottom line is that we can still TRY to help you out, but instead of trying, you're delving into all of this negativity. get over it and help us help you move on.
[03:01] <ompaul> Maxx84, that is a whole different question ;-) , do this sudo apt-get install rcconf, run the program with sudo rcconf and turn off gdm with a keystroke, or if you only want it off for a little while /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[03:01] <nivekc1> mark: is it out yet?
[03:01] <PriceChild> Mark_, #ubuntu-effects please
[03:01] <dissection> chmod u+w /etc/wvdial.conf <--- I typed this but it said operation not permitted.. What do I need to do to be able to edit /etc/wvdial.conf?
[03:01] <kitche> koen_: then use nvidia-glx but never heard of nvidia go before
[03:02] <tarelerulz> when I set the sound for interal sound card it play those the laptop speakers
[03:02] <dchky> dissection: most people don't approve, but sudo passwd root - type a password then su -
[03:02] <Ireal> dissection: you should probably do that as root :)
[03:02] <kitche> koen: yep it's nvidia-glx
[03:02] <Gnea> oh well, can't help everybody
[03:02] <koen_> kitche "go" means that its the notebook version of the card
[03:03] <kitche> dissection: I told you how to edit it alreadt
[03:03] <koen_> though many people forget to mention it...
[03:03] <Mimoh> hi
[03:03] <dchky> Yes, hello.
[03:04] <scorp123> dchky: you can just as well just issue a "sudo su -"
[03:04] <dissection> But when I installed Ubuntu, it never created a root
[03:04] <dchky> Yeah, but I don't like sudo.
[03:04] <iTurtle> dissection: the root filesystem is at   /
[03:04] <dchky> Then I add rootpw to visudo
[03:04] <scorp123> dissection: there is one ... it's just sort of "disabled" out of security aspects (a la Mac OS X).
[03:05] <iTurtle> dissection: what do you mean "it never created a root"?
[03:05] <Ireal> hyhy
[03:05] <scorp123> iTurtle: he probably means the "root" super-user
[03:05] <dissection> when i installed ubuntu, it asked me what username i want.. and i wrote "dissection"... thats it.. not root or anything
[03:05] <iTurtle> scorp123: ok.
[03:05] <scorp123> dissection: read above
[03:05] <Maxx84> ompaul: thanks! one last question: i need to sh the video card drivers, but everytime it tells me that X is opened, even if I log off and log on on a term(ctrl+alt+f2).....how do i kill the Xwindow? that's why i need to start with cli instead of gui......
[03:05] <dissection> so how do i enable it
[03:05] <iTurtle> speaking of Mac OS, how can I run a Mac OS X app on Ubuntu?
[03:05] <iTurtle> i've been able to do the opposite
[03:05] <marcovic> hi guys
[03:05] <dchky> dissection: type sudo passwd root
[03:05] <iTurtle> marcovic: hello
[03:06] <scorp123> dissection: direct access to "root" is disabled ... you don't even need it. You can do anything by using "sudo" in front of your commands.
[03:06] <dchky> enter your password, then to log in as root type su -
[03:06] <iTurtle> dchky: isn't it "su --login" ?
[03:06] <dissection> okay let me try
[03:06] <marcovic> iTurtle: some problem with the mic...can you help me?
[03:06] <ompaul> Maxx84, /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[03:06] <scorp123> dchky: "sudo su -" ... I already told you that.
[03:06] <dchky> if you want it to be permanent then sudo passwd root
[03:06] <iTurtle> marcovic: sure . what's wrong?
[03:06] <dchky> No kidding scorp123, what's your point?
[03:06] <ompaul> Maxx84, sorry:     sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[03:07] <ompaul> !root
[03:07] <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
[03:07] <scorp123> dchky: don't suggest creating passwd for "root" account to users ... if they don't have the experience they will probably just hose their systems.
[03:07] <Maxx84> ompaul: Thanks!!!!
[03:07] <marcovic> iTurtle: when i try to set ALSA from Sound config and then try to play, an error message come out: Pipeline broken
[03:07] <ompaul> Maxx84, enjoy
[03:07] <iTurtle> marcovic: hold on...
[03:07] <scorp123> dchky: I have seen too many noobs being tempted working as "root" permanently and BS like that ... :-/
[03:08] <dchky> So explain why virtually every other distro and unix system uses root!
[03:08] <SEOmoz> dchky, if you want you can do it with a gui, just go system , administration, user and groups and you ll see all the accounts, including root
[03:08] <bidossessi> does feisty come with beryl?
[03:08] <dchky> People shouldn't do anything on their systems without some thought.
[03:08] <AlexiLaiho> I have a problem with restarting the computer after installing Ubuntu, would anyone pls help me to solve this :(
[03:08] <scorp123> dchky: that's exactly the problem there ....
[03:08] <iTurtle> marcovic: try "autodetect" - see what happens
[03:08] <dchky> <-- old school I guess.
[03:08] <scorp123> dchky: too many people are used to having "admin powers" all the time a la Windoze ...
[03:08] <iTurtle> AlexiLaiho: sure. what happens?
[03:09] <ompaul> dchky, they too have a choice and sudo is over 25 years old
[03:09] <dchky> I never said anyone should log in and work as root now did I
[03:09] <AlexiLaiho> I installed Ubuntu, then updated without errors, but whenever I restarted the PC, the black monitor appears and remains
[03:09] <scorp123> dchky: being "old school" is totally OK :-)
[03:09] <marcovic> iTurtle: on the mic i can't...there's no way...i ust choose OSS or Alsa or other choices
[03:09] <iTurtle> I finally understand why turtleneck sweaters are called that! :)
[03:09] <AlexiLaiho> nothing happens afterwards
[03:09] <dchky> :-) It is.
[03:09] <bidossessi> i'm looking at installing ubuntu with linuxMCE, does kubunty come with beryl as standard or do i need to install it manually afterwards?
[03:09] <iTurtle> marcovic: I'm sorry. I can't help you :(
[03:09] <AlexiLaiho> I have to manually turn off the PC, then turn on again
[03:10] <ompaul> scorp123 / dchky please drop the subject or take it to #ubuntu-offtopic thanks
[03:10] <dchky> why?
[03:10] <marcovic> iTurtle: ok thankx a lot the same ;)
[03:10] <ompaul> !offtopic
[03:10] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[03:10] <scorp123> ompaul: WTF? We're totally on-topic ...
[03:10] <iTurtle> AlexiLaiho: ok. first off, when you're talking to a specific person, type in their name (like iTurtle: ) in the beginning so that I know it's specifically for me. ok?
[03:10] <scorp123> ompaul: root or not to root ....
[03:10] <dchky> We are on topic.
[03:10] <AlexiLaiho> iTurtle : my apology, I'm noob
[03:11] <iTurtle> AlexiLaiho: it's ok. Everyone's new sometime in their life ;_
[03:11] <iTurtle> * ;)
[03:11] <kitche> scorp123: anything root is off-topic here
[03:11] <scorp123> kitche: BS
[03:11] <iTurtle> AlexiLaiho: now, have you waited for a while after you sent the reboot command?
[03:11] <nivekc1> does MSI make a good nvidia card? and is the 8500 a good card?
[03:11] <ompaul> scorp123, kitche is right
[03:12] <dchky> You are entitled to your opinion kitche, not everyone shares your definition of 'on topic'
[03:12] <scorp123> ompaul: nope he isn't.
[03:12] <iTurtle> AlexiLaiho: Did the UBUNTU logo with the loading bar at least appear?
[03:12] <bidossessi> i'm still considering switching to ubuntu but idon't have an internet connection at home yet. i'd like to know if all i need to transform my pc into a media center is on the cd i download
[03:12] <iTurtle> !shipit | bidossessi
[03:12] <ubotu> bidossessi: shipit is a service that sends free Ubuntu, Kubuntu and Edubuntu CDs. See http://shipit.ubuntu.com/ and http://shipit.kubuntu.org and http://shipit.edubuntu.org - Shipit will send Feisty (7.04) CDs
[03:12] <scorp123> ompaul: sometimes you got to use "root" powers to install stuff ... I fail to see how this should be "offtopic".
[03:12] <ompaul> scorp123, it is  now chatter
[03:12] <iTurtle> bidossessi: I know there's a media center version of ubuntu, if that's what you mean....
[03:13] <scorp123> ompaul: to that I agree ... ok, next topic.
[03:13] <ReServe2> grub will not autostart ubuntu
[03:13] <bidossessi> iTurtle: i am in algeria, will shipit work? (grin)
[03:13] <ReServe2> what can I do to make grub autostart ubuntu?
[03:13] <dissection> Is there a default root password? I put the same password as that of my username and it said authentication failure.
[03:13] <iTurtle> bidossessi: of course! it works all over the world
[03:13] <AlexiLaiho> iTurtle : yes, I did wait a while, yes, the monitor 'flashed' several times, the logo appeared, the orange color bar ended as well
[03:13] <Gnea> dissection: use: sudo su   then use your password
[03:13] <dchky> dissection: there is no default root password, to set it type sudo passwd root
[03:13] <liquiddoom> !grub |ReServe2
[03:13] <ubotu> ReServe2: 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
[03:13] <kitche> dissection: root is locked on ubuntu use sudo instead
[03:13] <iTurtle> AlexiLaiho: ok. then try waiting for a bit to see what happens. Sometimes it does that. well, actually, hold on.....
[03:14] <AlexiLaiho> iTurtle : then the whole monitor turned black, then remained black, nothing more happened
[03:14] <bidossessi> iTurtle: i have an internet connection i can use at work to download what i need, but once i am home, i'd like to setup linxMCE and beryl i just want to know if that will be possible
[03:15] <bidossessi> because i have a rock-solid opensuse right now, i just felt like being adventurous
[03:15] <iTurtle> bidossessi: desktop effects come preinstalled on 7.04 - System>Preferences>Desktop Effects
[03:15] <jrib> does anyone know of a way to stop a specific key from repeating if I hold it down?
[03:15] <iTurtle> jrib: try keyboard prefs
[03:15] <iTurtle> AlexiLaiho: wow. there are a lot of ubuntu users in singapore. :) anyway....
[03:16] <iTurtle> AlexiLaiho: yeah. Try waiting a while after the screen goes black. then see what happens.
[03:16] <AlexiLaiho> iTurtle: ok, I will leave now to give a try, I'll be back later. Thanks for your help
[03:17] <iTurtle> AlexiLaiho: welcome
[03:17] <jrib> iTurtle: I see that lets me turn off repeating for all keys, but I don't see where it lets me turn it off for a specific key
[03:17] <iTurtle> jrib: I'm not sure you can do that..... at least, not that I know of
[03:17] <Hexxeh> Hey guys
[03:17] <jrib> iTurtle: alright, thanks
[03:17] <iTurtle> jrib: welcome
[03:17] <Hexxeh> Is it worth using 64-bit Ubuntu on a 4200+ X2 AMD chip? I've heard Flash doesn't work in it.
[03:18] <jrib> Hexxeh: if you don't have a particular reason you want to use 64bit, it is not worth it
[03:18] <Frogzoo> Hexxeh: for desktop, no, for server yes
[03:18] <Hexxeh> It's for my main desktop
[03:19] <ReServe2> liquiddoom; dont understand what to do
[03:19] <Hexxeh> I'm thinking of switching from Vista Ultimate to Ubuntu 7.04 because Vista is crashing like a crackwhore.
[03:19] <scorp123> Hexxeh: 64-bit edition only makes sense for server installation ... else go for the 32-bit version or too much of the multimedia stuff won't work at the moment ....
[03:19] <kitche> Hexxeh: even for server it's not worth it at least right now programs need to be programmed to use the extra thread which most don't use any how
[03:19] <Hexxeh> Okay thanks.

 I'll talk in a bit, gotta run
[03:19] <Jester__> Hello
[03:20] <Hexxeh> I've downloaded both version of Desktop Ubuntu, 7.04: 32 and 64bit.
[03:20] <Hexxeh> So I just wanted to ask, thankyou.
[03:20] <Jester__> How can I get drivers for Sis 650/740 VGA for Linux?
[03:20] <ReServe2> ok liquiddoom
[03:20] <Hexxeh> Also, will my iPod/Zune work in some way?
[03:20] <iTurtle> What comes with the Shipit cd package?
[03:20] <iTurtle> !drivers | Jester_
[03:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about drivers - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[03:21] <jrib> iTurtle: ?
[03:21] <iTurtle> jrib: what
[03:21] <Frogzoo> iTurtle: that's gonna hurt
[03:21] <jrib> iTurtle: why did you call !ops?
[03:21] <iTurtle> Frogzoo: what?
[03:21] <ompaul> iTurtle, ?
[03:21] <scorp123> Jester__: if that is an older card you probably don't need any "drivers", it's probably already supported and should work out of the box ....
[03:21] <iTurtle> jrib: I've heard of IRC ops, and I wanted to know what they were
[03:21] <iTurtle> Frogzoo: what's going to hurt?
[03:21] <Frogzoo> iTurtle: best to leave the ops sleeping - they get cranky when roused
[03:21] <scorp123> Jester__: ... just to mention that I don't know that card ...
[03:22] <Frogzoo> lol
[03:22] <djmccormick> how can i get java for the command-line on my 6.06 LTS command-line-only box?
[03:22] <scorp123> !java
[03:22] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[03:22] <kitche> djmccormick: umm install the java binary
[03:22] <elkbuntu> iTurtle,  /cs access #ubuntu list would have worked, and not got you into trouble
[03:22] <kitche> !java | djmccormick
[03:22] <ubotu> djmccormick: please see above
[03:22] <dissection> Okay I changed into root successfully, typed "chmod u+w /etc/wvdial.conf" but it was still read-only... I was not able to edit it..
[03:22] <iTurtle> elkbuntu: what are ops?
[03:22] <Jester__> scorp123: I have 2 fps in a game right now, and I had arround 15 on windows
[03:23] <Gnea> iTurtle: channel management.
[03:23] <scorp123> Jester__: what game?
[03:23] <Jester__> scorp123: Tibia
[03:23] <scorp123> Jester__: you are running the same game under Linux?
[03:23] <Hexxeh> I have an external USB drive formatted to NTFS, can I access it safely with Ubuntu as I have other windows machines I use it with.
[03:23] <Jester__> scorp123: Not the same client ofc. But the same game
[03:23] <scorp123> Jester__: there are multiple factors
[03:24] <Ireal> Hexxeh: yes, but read-only
[03:24] <Hexxeh> Damn.
[03:24] <scorp123> Jester__: could be that the Linux client wasn't as well-programmed as the Windows one ... ?
[03:24] <Hexxeh> Is there anything I can do to use it just as I do in Windows?

[03:25] <xconspirisist> Hey all. Ive had ubuntu installed for months. I rebooted the other day and it giving me and error; fsck died with exist status 8. Ive manually checked all filesystems, which appear to be clean, but it is still dying with code 8 (operational error), has anyone ever heard of this before?
[03:25] <Jester__> scorp123: It's possible, but im not sure
[03:25] <kitche> Ireal: I consider it unstable myself it tricks the kernel
[03:26] <scorp123> xconspirisist: boot off a Live CD and check from there ...
[03:26] <bidossessi> most of my music is in ogg but i was more thinking of my axxo videos which i play with mplayer
[03:26] <lorx> Hey. Im having a problem with my Audigy and Live soundcard, I cant get no digital output out of em. I have an extern DAC and it recieves the signal (48khz) when I turn on the "Audigy Analog/Digital" Switch on, so its not the cable/signal. But i get no sound out of it, what am I doing wrong? (PS. I'm newbie, so :>)
[03:26] <xconspirisist> scorp123: Can you think of another solution, the box doesnt have a cd drive.
[03:26] <lorx> I get the same problem with both cards.
[03:26] <Shaftino> Does anybody else have a problem with their wireless mouse, where the clicks stop being recognised?
[03:26] <scorp123> bidossessi: "axxo" ... you mean DIVX and XVID ... "axxo" are just the folks who do the releases.
[03:27] <Ireal> kitche: ah, but at least it's progress :)
[03:27] <scorp123> xconspirisist: remove HD and put it into a different machine, check from there
[03:27] <xconspirisist> hmm
[03:27] <Gnea> lorx: you need to use the alsamixer to unmute and use the digital outs
[03:27] <scorp123> xconspirisist: boot off USB-Stick and check from there
[03:27] <Gnea> lorx: open a terminal and type: alsamixer
[03:27] <bidossessi> scorp123: that's what i mean
[03:28] <stelios> there is somebody who knows a page with a guide for beryl installation on feisty with ati?
[03:28] <scorp123> xconspirisist: Or boot into single user and check every filesystem manually ...? Did you try that already?
[03:28] <scorp123> !beryl | stelios
[03:28] <ubotu> stelios: beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[03:28] <bidossessi> i guess the link you just mentioned works with all of those formats?...
[03:29] <scorp123> bidossessi: no idea to be honest ... the stuff the Bots and Admins here give as answers usually works 100% ...
[03:29] <lorx> Gnea, how do i unmute it there? its just writing "00" and i cant turn it up or anything.

[03:29] <bidossessi> ok. where do i go to check out which version of amarok feisty packs?
[03:29] <Shaftino> Im having a problem with my mouse, its very weird, it works fine for a while but then suddenly all clicks off it are stopped being recognised? Anyone any idea what could cause this?
[03:29] <Gnea> lorx: OO means it's unmuted
[03:30] <Frogzoo> bidossessi: apt-cache show amarok
[03:30] <Gnea> lorx: should say for the item: "SB Live Analog/Digital Output Jack"
[03:30] <scorp123> Shaftino: the mouse works OK other than that? e.g. on other systems?
[03:30] <blmartin778> any ideas on good dedicated server companies, for price and service?
[03:30] <Shaftino> scorp123, Yes it works perfect
[03:30] <scorp123> Shaftino: maybe a flaky cable? Or coke spilled over the mouse ...
[03:30] <Hexxeh> http://softlayer.com blmartin778
[03:30] <Shaftino> scorp123, Its wireless
[03:30] <bidossessi> Frogzoo: i haven't install ubuntu yet. i am doing bg research
[03:30] <lorx> Gnea, yeah, it does. when i press "," it writes "mm", and the DAC losses the signal. But still no sound when i switch it on again :(
[03:30] <bidossessi> installed*
[03:30] <scorp123> Shaftino: maybe low batteries?
[03:31] <Shaftino> scorp123, They have only just been changed :S
[03:31] <Shaftino> scorp123, It only ever happens with ubuntu
[03:31] <scorp123> Shaftino: or a mobile phone or WLAN access point somewhere somehow causing intereferences?
[03:31] <Frogzoo> bidossessi: Version: 2:1.4.5-0ubuntu7
[03:31] <xconspirisist> Anyone know how I can create /dev/hdb1, it doesnt exist for some unknown reason, and MAKEDEV doesnt know how to make it.
[03:31] <Shaftino> scorp123, Never had a problem like that wit it before
[03:31] <Frogzoo> xconspirisist: udev didn't find any device there
[03:31] <Frogzoo> xconspirisist: try /dev/sdb1
[03:32] <scorp123> xconspirisist: do you even had a harddisk /dev/hdb ?
[03:32] <Shaftino> scorp123, Its like i can still move the cursor and the wireless keyboard still works
[03:32] <xconspirisist> I tried that.
[03:32] <Shaftino> scorp123, Its just the clicks stop being recognised
[03:32] <xconspirisist> scorp123: I did before I started having these errors. :/
[03:32] <scorp123> xconspirisist: maybe the HD just died?
[03:32] <Shaftino> scorp123, I did notice, I think my xorg.conf claims to be emulating 3 buttons, could that cause anything?
[03:32] <xconspirisist> /dev/hdb1, and /dev/sda3, (two of the disks out of the 5) dont have dev devices.
[03:32] <scorp123> Shaftino: yes ... turn it off. and see if it improves anything.
[03:32] <xconspirisist> scorp123: Unlikely that 2 died...
[03:32] <Gnea> lorx: hrm..
[03:33] <Shaftino> scorp123, could using the built in compiz cause a problem?
[03:33] <Shaftino> scorp123, Just out of interest
[03:33] <kitche> xconspirisist: /dev/hdb1 and /dev/sda3 means partitions
[03:33] <oddchild> hello
[03:33] <xconspirisist> kitche: I know that. :)
[03:33] <scorp123> xconspirisist: no kidding: I had once three HD's die on me the same damn day. I thought I was going crazy. Trust me: it can happen ... unlikely, yes ... but it can happen.
[03:33] <bidossessi> hmmm. my opensuse version is the latest. i guess there are repositories i can setup to update packages to the latest versions, right?
[03:34] <bidossessi> that was the last question
[03:34] <kitche> xconspirisist: do you have a /dev/hdb and a /dev/sda
[03:34] <oddchild> I am having a problem with the desktop effects...
[03:34] <xconspirisist> scorp123: Is there a more reliable way to check? The raid cards are showing the devices.
[03:34] <oddchild> the cube worked once... but never again?
[03:34] <oddchild> anyone have any ideas?
[03:34] <Trini_Man> hi how do stop gnome terminal from displaying the my pwd before the prompt. I want it to remain Static
[03:34] <Enselic> oddchild: have you enabled it?
[03:34] <oddchild> i have good graphics cards..
[03:34] <scorp123> xconspirisist: oK, if the RAID controllers see them then they should still be alive somehow ....
[03:34] <oddchild> yeah
[03:34] <xconspirisist> kitche: Ill check just for shits and giggles.
[03:34] <Frogzoo> xconspirisist: see what you get with: 'for x in a b c d e f g; do sudo fdisk -l /dev/sd$x ; done'
[03:34] <xconspirisist> scorp123: That what I thought.
[03:34] <xconspirisist> Frogzoo: will do.
[03:34] <oddchild> it worked for a while
[03:34] <oddchild> like 15 min
[03:35] <oddchild> then never again...
[03:35] <scorp123> !enter | oddchild
[03:35] <Trini_Man> hi how do stop gnome terminal from displaying the my pwd before the prompt. I want it to remain Static
[03:35] <ubotu> oddchild: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:35] <kitche> xconspirisist: but usually /dev/sdX will only  be created on demand if you don't have SATA drives that is
[03:35] <mark13> quick question: how do i get the boot messages instead of the splash screen? i've updated edgy to feisty and now it just hangs (that fancy bar isn't moving)
[03:35] <oddchild> the wobble works
[03:35] <oddchild> but not the cube
[03:35] <scorp123> Trini_Man: edit this file :  .bashrc
[03:35] <Shaftino> scorp123, Even without 3 button emulation, its still playing up
[03:35] <oddchild> alright
[03:35] <Jeruvy> When I go to adjust the time and date, I don't get any window opening.  Can someone suggest where to seek the problem?
[03:35] <scorp123> Shaftino: hmm ... what brand is that mouse?
[03:36] <oddchild> i am on a laptop.
[03:36] <xconspirisist> Frogzoo: That a really nice trick, and it showing every single drive. *phew*.
[03:36] <Shaftino> scorp123, Think having 3 wacom touchpads configged inside my xorg.conf could be doing something?
[03:36] <oddchild> just a normal, laptop mouse.. built in..
[03:36] <Trini_Man> scorp123: where is that file ?
[03:36] <scorp123> Frogzoo: I second that ... nice trick :-)
[03:36] <Shaftino> scorp123, I dont even have any touchpads or anything
[03:36] <gejr> My wireless card is found in lspci but not in ifconfig -a...what could cause this?
[03:36] <Shaftino> scorp123, Its a labtec
[03:36] <Gnea> lorx: ok, you may need to change the output device in your program from hw:0,0 to hw:0,2
[03:36] <xconspirisist> Anyone got any ideas on where to go from here?
[03:36] <oddchild> when i have the cube enabled... the workspaces vanish, and when i try using the cube, it acts as though i did not hit CTRL+ALT
[03:37] <scorp123> Trini_Man: you sure you want to do this? if you ask a question like this then you probably shouldn't touch such stuff :-)
[03:37] <perlmonkey> is it normal for X to restart after mythtv-setup runs?
[03:37] <Gnea> lorx: some more detailed info here: http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php/DigitalOut
[03:37] <perlmonkey> gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0
[03:37] <Trini_Man> scorp123 : i am sure
[03:37] <Shaftino> scorp123, Think i should try removing the 3 wacom devices out of xorg?
[03:37] <Shaftino> scorp123, One is configged as a mouse too :S
[03:37] <djmccormick> does enabling multiverse involve more than uncommenting the lines in my sources.list that say multiverse next to them?
[03:37] <mark13> help... please... i'm sure it's just a single keypress, but how do i get normal boot messages instead of the splash screen?
[03:38] <Frogzoo> djmccormick: just that
[03:38] <kitche> djmccormick: have to update the database of packages as well
[03:38] <erUSUL> mark13: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and get rid of the 'splash' keyword in the kernel entries you are interested on
[03:38] <kitche> mark13: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst nd remove splash and quiet from the kernel line
[03:39] <erUSUL> djmccormick: no, that is enough
[03:39] <mark13> thanks to both of you, will do that
[03:39] <erUSUL> djmccormick: you have to update after the change

[03:41] <qsendar> [03:41] <qsendar> [03:41] <lorx> Gnea, that didnt work either, XMMS just complains that the device is blocked by an another application =(
[03:41] <kitche> xconspirisist: vol tells you but myself I don't use uuid's so that might  be wrong
[03:42] <Frogzoo> Jeruvy: you a member of the admin group ?
[03:42] <jrib> !uuid > xconspirisist (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:42] <scorp123> jrib: he he ... that was fast :)
[03:42] <Gnea> lorx: what about hw:0,3?
[03:42] <Jeruvy> Frogzoo it asks for admin password but thats it...is this a gnome app that broke maybe?
[03:42] <tom_> Hey Guys - Bit of a strange issue - just fired up Ubuntu - and none of the "system" sounds work. The only sound i can get is through Amarok - nohting else. Ive set the default soundcard, checked all the setting and everything is fine. Any ideas what i may have over looked?
[03:42] <dagiS> does the ubuntu install have to go on the same drive as windows to make dualboot work?
[03:42] <Gartral> tom
[03:42] <scorp123> tom_: just had the same problem ....
[03:43] <binks> anyone no how to cure this error on starting vdr >> vdr: please turn off UTF-8 before starting VDR
[03:43] <kitche> dagiS: no
[03:43] <Frogzoo> Jeruvy: enter your user passwd
[03:43] <tom_> scorp123: did you just have an update as well? thats the only thing i can put it down too
[03:43] <scorp123> tom_: in my case I had to disable the on-board sound card via the PC BIOS ...
[03:43] <Gnea> lorx: you may need to stop the song, open the preferences, set the output channel, apply/ok, then play the song again
[03:43] <Shaftino> Can someone tell me how I back up my current xorg.conf, then how I can replace it over the original if something goes wrong when i edit it please?
[03:43] <dagiS> thanks kitche
[03:43] <Jeruvy> Frogzoo: tried that
[03:43] <kitche> Shaftino: sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.bak
[03:43] <Gartral> my panels die and crash upon loading
[03:43] <kitche> Shaftino: then do the reverse to restore
[03:44] <lorx> Gnea, i did, same problem, with 0,3/0,4/0,5 its the same problem, it cant play the song because of hardware in use, but with the 0,1 there is no problem with playing, but no sound is coming out of the speaker.
[03:44] <erUSUL> Shaftino: make a copy with cp and to restore it just copy it again over the other one
[03:44] <sandman_> Does anyone know how to activate the special simbols like french ones in firefox. Do I need to activate the correct unicode in the kernel as well?
[03:44] <Gnea> lorx: what other audio programs do you have running? any sound servers?
[03:44] <scorp123> Shaftino: you could also add some comment to it ... e.g. : sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.Backup_DEFAULT_23-Jun-2007
[03:45] <Gartral> sandman_:  you need to dl your land files from synaptic
[03:45] <brainiac8008> i just got pidgin from the pidgin site.  i followed the installation instructions and supposedly installed pidgin.  it does not, however, appear in Applications>Internet.  Is it installed?  If so, how do I run it?
[03:45] <lorx> Gnea, nothing, xmms is the only application, besides x-chat
[03:45] <Mindcat> hello, i got a problem with gaim on ubuntu. when i use it with msn it often crashes. non problem when i use it with irc...
[03:45] <cetanhota> try opening a terminal and typing pidgen
[03:46] <Gnea> lorx: and nothing on that website makes a difference?
[03:46] <brainiac8008> cetanhota, it says, "bash: pidgin: command not found"
[03:46] <kitche> Mindcat: might be due to MSN does that with gaim
[03:46] <cetanhota> brainiac8008, 1 sec let me look
[03:46] <Gartral> my panels are screed up, i have a log file...
[03:47] <kitche> Mindcat: but anyways with gaim it's not even supported upstream anymore so who knows if it will be fixed
[03:47] <noelferreira> how to open a .docx file?

[03:47] <noelferreira> i think it is a microsoft word doc. no sure

[03:49] <scorp123> noelferreira: it's called *Monopoly* :-)
[03:49] <alaQ> noelferreira: unfortunately, I don't know of a way to open it from within linux.  However, the format is in XML, so if you need just the data from in it, you can open that up in a text editor of your choic.
[03:49] <LCCUB>  Mindcat you could try aMSN
[03:49] <Gnea> !language noelferreira

[03:50] <brainiac8008> cetanhota, how do I do a "dbl check" of my install?
[03:50] <scorp123> noelferreira: there are convertors for MS Office that can create OpenOffice files ... maybe you could ask someone using Windows to convert the file for you?

[03:51] <Gnea> scorp123: and it can write them.
[03:51] <_Ahti> LCCUB: I totally disagree.. I think MSN works fine with GAIM/Pidgin
[03:51] <Gnea> scorp123: well, to a point
[03:51] <scorp123> Gnea: Office XP ... yes ... But MS Office 2007? Are you sure about this?

[03:53] <lorx> Gnea, Nope, it can play with spdif and iec958, but still no sound is coming out of the speakers :(
[03:53] <Gunmanic>  I just have one quick question, I'm trying to compile a package from source, and I was wondering if there is a package I can download so that I can compile just about anything without having to worry about not having the correct compilers
[03:53] <LCCUB> LinuxKid: I personally suggest Konversation, been the best replacement for mIRC imo

[03:56] <raf256> hello
[03:57] <raf256> Marker - as in - size of user community etc, is also important isnt it?
[03:57] <H3lp> anyone free to help out with a TLS problem in aMSN !
[03:57] <vzduch> !repositories
[03:57] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[03:58] <Gnea> H3lp: again, you'll need to ask the actual question
[03:58] <larson9999> had to change hw:0,0 to hw:0,1 in gtk-recordmydesktop and then it worked fine.
[03:58] <brainiac8008> can i install pidgin if i have gaim or do i have to remove gaim first?
[03:59] <H3lp> gnea , well aMSN keeps asking me for tls to b installed and when i choose my correct system architecture it gives me an error tht it wasnt downloaded properly (so i download/installed it through terminal) but its still asking for it! i cant seem to login
[03:59] <Gnea> H3lp: have you tried pidgin?
[03:59] <mark13> ok, the boot messages were interesting... it hangs when it tries to access the root filesystem, which is on /dev/hde4, which it claims doesn't exist. it worked fine before i ran the internal updater, and i can still mount /dev/hde4 from a live CD and it looks ok
[03:59] <mark13> any ideas?
[03:59] <H3lp> gnea , yes it keeps crashing and im used to aMSN
[04:00] <Gunmanic> Where can I get bxlib'
[04:00] <Jeruvy> ok this is crazy, how do I set the time and date on ubuntu?  Time-admin doesn't seem to work, using 'date' I get timestamp too far in the future.  Even NTP doesn't seem to be working.
[04:00] <Gunmanic> BZlib*
[04:00] <Gnea> H3lp: sec
[04:00] <mark13> Jeruvy, you can use date to set the time
[04:00] <Jeruvy> Not anymore
[04:00] <mark13> date --help
[04:01] <Jeruvy> mark13: timestamp too far into the future...
[04:01] <H3lp> Gnea , tyt and thanks :)
[04:01] <Gunmanic> anybody know where I can get bzlib header ?
[04:01] <Gnea> Gunmanic: just install the -dev package
[04:01] <mark13> Jeruvy, in the bios?
[04:01] <LCCUB> Is it possible to disable recent documents from the Places menu?
[04:01] <Jeruvy> BIOS is set proper with todays date and time
[04:01] <xconspirisist> Fuck. I just deleted fstab. Can I generate it?
[04:01] <PriceChild> !ohmy | xconspirisist
[04:01] <ubotu> xconspirisist: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[04:02] <xconspirisist> ^ Sorry.
[04:02] <Gunmanic> Gnea where can I get the dev package? Can't find anything in synaptic
[04:02] <mark13> Jeruvy, how far in the future?
[04:02] <larson9999> xconspirisist: it gets generated if it's not there.
[04:02] <Gnea> Gunmanic: apt-cache search libbz2 dev
[04:02] <Jeruvy> mark13: right now it's set for June 7, 2025
[04:02] <xconspirisist> Phew.
[04:02] <Gnea> Gunmanic: or do a search for: libbz2 dev
[04:02] <larson9999> xconspirisist: normally you shouldn't have to mess with fstab these days.  what are you trying to do?
[04:03] <mark13> Jeruvy, ouch :/
[04:03] <xconspirisist> Add some new drives.
[04:03] <larson9999> xconspirisist: what kind of drives?  ubuntu should be pretty much plug and play
[04:03] <Jeruvy> mark13: it seems the kernel is picking this time up, but I cannot find why or what error is causing this.
[04:03] <kitche> xconspirisist: you have to write out fstab completely now no it's not auto generated only by the installer script really
[04:03] <mark13> Jeruvy, so, date -s ... complains?
[04:03] <Eoghan> I know Dell are starting to use Ubuntu on certain products. Does anyone know if it'll work with the XPS Notebook? or is it just the Inspiron?
[04:04] <Jeruvy> mark13: yes unfortunetly
[04:04] <mark13> xconspirisist, i think there's a tool, gimme a sec
[04:04] <LCCUB> Eoghan: it should work with most current hardware, it's just not sold that way from Dell
[04:04] <xconspirisist> larson9999: Just some sata drives. Nothing exciting.
[04:04] <Eoghan> I see, thanks lads.
[04:04] <xconspirisist> mark13: Thanks.
[04:04] <Ireal> nephilim: hi
[04:04] <LCCUB> nobody for the recent documents?
[04:05] <mark13> xconspirisist, google gpart, maybe that helps
[04:05] <mark13> xconspirisist, i think it's part of gentoo live cds
[04:06] <xconspirisist> I know of gparted, but I generally dont use an xserver on that box.
[04:06] <ari_stress> hello, can you help me why this network installation failed? [Sat Jun 23 19:14:43 2007]  [error]  [client 192.168.1.100]  File does not exist: /srv/www/htdocs/pub/dists/feisty/restricted/debian-installer
[04:07] <ari_stress> the debian-installer is not there
[04:07] <kitche> xconspirisist: gpart != gparted
[04:07] <ari_stress> very strange, as i use the full iso
[04:07] <xconspirisist> ah right.
[04:07] <mark13> xconspirisist, gpart, not gparted. it works from the command line
[04:08] <nephilim> hi everyone
[04:08] <mark13> so... back to /my/ problem :)
[04:08] <nephilim> can anyone help me with some new updated sources.list ?
[04:08] <Gnea> nephilim: what's the problem?
[04:08] <Gunmanic> Gnea: Thanks for your help :)
[04:08] <nephilim> hi Gnea
[04:09] <stt_> sry
[04:09] <lorx> Gnea, hehe, its allright, but thanks for help anyway :>
[04:09] <Gnea> Gunmanic: have fun :)
[04:09] <nephilim> i want to update amarok for example
[04:09] <mark13> on bootup it complains there is no /dev/hde4 (root part). it's there, though. i can mount it, looks good. was no problem before i ran the internal updater from edgy to feisty
[04:09] <Gunmanic> ty
[04:09] <nephilim> and i want to do it with apt-get or aptitude ....
[04:09] <Gnea> lorx: good luck with that
[04:09] <Gnea> apt-get update && apt-get install amarok
[04:09] <Gnea> it's that simple
[04:09] <xconspirisist> The root filesystem is mounted ro, is it possible to remount it rw while the system is on?
[04:09] <VoX> amarok is fail
[04:09] <VoX> and lose.
[04:09] <Gnea> ?
[04:10] <Gnea> xconspirisist: yes: mount -n -o remount,rw /
[04:10] <xconspirisist> Gnea: Many thanks.
[04:10] <mark13> xconspirisist, i don't even get that far. it doesn't mount, apparently, system drops to weird ash shell
[04:10] <nephilim> not exactly Gnea :)
[04:10] <Gnea> nephilim: so what's the problem? :)
[04:10] <mark13> ah, that wasn't for me :)
[04:10] <DJ-_-> nephilim: u want to add repos?
[04:11] <nephilim> I have amarok 1.4.5 and there is an updated version 1.4.6
[04:11] <nephilim> yes DJ-_-
[04:11] <xconspirisist> Gnea: heh, cant do that without /etc/fstab. damn :(
[04:11] <DJ-_-> nephilim: if so, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/CommandLine
[04:11] <DJ-_-> n scroll down
[04:11] <nephilim> ok, 10x DJ-_-
[04:11] <Gnea> xconspirisist: there's not /etc/mtab?
[04:11] <nephilim> one last problem
[04:11] <DJ-_-> nephilim: np
[04:12] <xconspirisist> Gnea: No worries, it was actually a warning, not an error.
[04:12] <nephilim> when I start amarok and some KDE based apps i got an error
[04:12] <Gnea> oh cool
[04:12] <Gnea> :)
[04:12] <nephilim> i cannot fix this
[04:12] <Gnea> what's the error?
[04:12] <nephilim> Could not find mime type....
[04:12] <nephilim> "Could not find mime type....
[04:12] <nephilim> "Could not find mime type application/octet-stream"
[04:13] <nephilim> are appearing under 2 litle windows, and I press twice OK and is good to go ...
[04:14] <Jeruvy> something is total fubar with this ubuntu, for whatever reason 'sudo' was causing the 'timestamp' problem.  Literely repeating the command about 10 times got it set.  This is very screwed up.  I'd like to reinstall these packages if anyone can suggest what packages I need to reinstall?
[04:14] <sona> i'm getting either no results from sudo fdisk -l /dev/hda or weird results from sudo fdisk -l (i'm new to this by the way)
[04:15] <nephilim> is the same with, ktorrent, amarok ..... and gaim crash if i start it before the amarok (I guess is because the "currenttrack" plugin)
[04:15] <DJ-_-> Jeruvy: do you know what packages got removed?
[04:15] <kitche> Jeruvy: your time is way off then what sudo sees it as have to fix your time to get sudo to work correctly
[04:15] <magnetron> Jeruvy: reinstalling packages doesn't change the settings, and seldom solves any problems.
[04:15] <Gnea> nephilim: looks like it can be fixed by running kcontrol then clicking on components->File-Linking application
[04:15] <Jeruvy> kitche:  how?
[04:15] <Gnea> nephilim: you may have to add some mime types there for sound files like *. wav *. mp3  and so on
[04:15] <kitche> Jeruvy: myself I use ntp to keep synced
[04:16] <Jeruvy> kitche: ntp is not working

[04:31] <magnetron> Mark_: what error do you get then?

[04:32] <kekos> do you know what canbe the problem?

[04:32] <cables> ScottishDuckHunt, are you doing this from a LiveCD or from an installed Ubuntu version?
[04:33] <ScottishDuckHunt> Cables: Live CD
[04:33] <cables> ScottishDuckHunt, that's weird
[04:33] <Mark_> right click on it and click unmount

[04:33] <ScottishDuckHunt> my HDD is 100% windows ATM (a.k.a crap)
[04:33] <Gnea> Mark_: you need to learn how to use the command line.
[04:33] <DJ-_-> wtf
[04:33] <ScottishDuckHunt> i know the command line and everything so tell me to try whatever
[04:33] <DJ-_-> Jeruvy: do this then....in terminal tyoe sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop

[04:34] <ScottishDuckHunt> cables: yea
[04:34] <bicycledaave> Mark_:just type 'mount' in a terminal, and check if it's really umounted

[04:35] <ubotu> wesolek: 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?
[04:35] <Gnea> magnetron: that will not tell if you if a partition is mounted or not.
[04:35] <ScottishDuckHunt> its a real mystery i know ;/
[04:35] <magnetron> ScottishDuckHunt: does gparted say the mbr is damaged
[04:35] <DJ-_-> Jeruvy: wow
[04:35] <ScottishDuckHunt> its happened before
[04:35] <DJ-_-> Jeruvy: 34 apps gone....did you uninstall anything that came with ubuntu
[04:35] <Jeruvy> DJ-_-: nope
[04:36] <Gnea> magnetron: df -Th will

[04:36] <wesolek> cables, can you help me out?
[04:36] <DJ-_-> Jeruvy: you used the ubuntu-desktop cd to install?
[04:36] <Draconicus> Can somebody help me? This has been going on since I moved to Feisty, but only with this one installation. Firefox is using a monospace font (looks like freemono) for its menus and buttons as well as text fields and such inside of pages. It's got nothing to do with default font settings, and I've tried everything I can think of to figure it out myself, to no avail.
[04:36] <magnetron> Mark_: where did you get that from?
[04:36] <Jeruvy> DJ-_-: this was upgraded from 6.10
[04:36] <Gnea> magnetron: my mistake, it will, if it's illuminated

[04:39] <ari_stress> guys, what is different between desktop and server release?
[04:39] <ubuntuEdgy> nothing
[04:39] <Gnea> ari_stress: server doesn't run X
[04:40] <Mark_> is it better to install windows under virtulization or partitioning the drive and using GRUB to acess it
[04:40] <ubuntuEdgy> server has no gdm
[04:40] <kitche> ari_stress: the kernel and server installs a command line only by defualt
[04:40] <Jeruvy> DJ-_-: well thanks for confirming it was a fubar'd gnome.
[04:40] <DJ-_-> Jeruvy: np
[04:40] <magnetron> wesolek: "can anybody help" is not a support question, please ask all of us at the same time. we want to help, but please tell us what's wrong
[04:40] <cables> ari_stress, desktop has a GUI, server is commandline only (by default)
[04:40] <Gnea> Mark_: i prefer virtualization because if windows crashes, linux is still there
[04:40] <ubuntuEdgy> Mark_: are you using vmware -server ?
[04:40] <ari_stress> so, the destkop has X, does it have apache too? or i should download first as usual?
[04:40] <ScottishDuckHunt> Oh , on the topic of VM machines: can you run 3d games in a Windows VM?
[04:40] <Mark_> yea
[04:41] <magnetron> ScottishDuckHunt: no
[04:41] <DJ-_-> Jeruvy: bbl....i need to watch some movies i am bored lol...
[04:41] <ScottishDuckHunt> :(
[04:41] <ubuntuEdgy> Mark_: i need help my self
[04:41] <DJ-_-> Jeruvy: have fun with ur non fubar'd ubuntu now :D
[04:41] <Gnea> ScottishDuckHunt: yes.
[04:41] <Gnea> magnetron: yes.
[04:41] <ScottishDuckHunt> :D
[04:41] <Mark_> well im thinking about using it
[04:41] <Jeruvy> DJ-_-: thanks :)
[04:41] <DJ-_-> np
[04:41] <ubuntuEdgy> Mark_:  how can i boot xo pro, i keep getting a error
[04:41] <tanaka> hi all
[04:41] <Mark_> idk
[04:41] <Mark_> i have used it yet
[04:41] <Mark_> not
[04:41] <Gnea> magnetron: i run windows in a VM. i have 3d installed there. i've run 3d games in it.
[04:42] <magnetron> Gnea: what VM?
[04:42] <Mark_> so is VM good to run Windows
[04:42] <ScottishDuckHunt> Gnea: do you know if there it has good performance?
[04:42] <Gnea> magnetron: vmware/qemu
[04:42] <wesolek> magnetron, but I am saying what the problems is... I just can't follow the solution to my problem I found on the internet.. it gets too hazy.. "grab" this and that, it's for people with a better linux background than me
[04:42] <ubuntuEdgy> ok i would recommend you install it on the vmware its self
[04:42] <Gnea> ScottishDuckHunt: depends what else is running - the more ram, the better performance
[04:42] <ScottishDuckHunt> cool
[04:42] <tanaka> can someone tell me a site which has nspluginwrapper for ubuntu
[04:42] <ScottishDuckHunt> i only ever really play CS 1.6 anyway :D
[04:42] <magnetron> Gnea: qemu does not have 3d acceleration
[04:42] <Gnea> i'm at half a gig right now, so my performance isn't as good as it was with 1gig
[04:42] <kitche> ari_stress: have to install it, the server and desktop are the same just the kernel and what's installed by default
[04:42] <kitche> ari_stress: so you can install anyhting that is on desktop on the server edition
[04:43] <magnetron> ScottishDuckHunt: You could run CS in Wine
[04:43] <ScottishDuckHunt> wine sucks tho
[04:43] <jrib> tanaka: http://www.janvitus.netsons.org/2007/01/15/nspluginwrapper-adobe-flash-player/
[04:43] <pipegeek> I enjoy fine wines
[04:43] <Gnea> magnetron: you've proven that it doesn't work through trial and error?
[04:43] <pipegeek> they are made from grapes
[04:43] <bronze> IS there a linux alternative to daemon tools? For emulating images?
[04:44] <jrib> !iso > bronze (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:44] <pipegeek> That'd be handy
[04:44] <Gnea> ScottishDuckHunt: cedega is usually better tho, especially for CS
[04:44] <_Ahti> HELLOE EVERYBODY :P JUST TESTING A SCRIPT CALLED "DAU" FOR IRSSI
[04:44] <pipegeek> though you can just mount the things
[04:44] <Gnea> ScottishDuckHunt: not free but not expensive either :)
[04:44] <Frogzoo> bronze: cdemu ?
[04:44] <jrib> _Ahti: please don't test scripts here and drop the caps
[04:44] <magnetron> ScottishDuckHunt: "Wine sucks"?? http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=3731
[04:44] <ari_stress> kitche: so, in the server release, it will have say... LAMP installed by default?
[04:44] <ScottishDuckHunt> So if i had - say 4GB of RAM. I could run basically anything on a VM using 2GB RAM?
[04:44] <romperstomper> compiz problem>hi, i've got a problem. In the gconf-editor i have set up the skydome images and the superior and inferior faces of the cube of compiz, but them don't appear
[04:44] <Gnea> _Ahti: join your own channel and test, please
[04:44] <tanaka> jrib: thanks
[04:44] <_Ahti> jrib: The script did it
[04:44] <ScottishDuckHunt> Gnea: i know where to get cedega anyway :D
[04:44] <_Ahti> jrib: And i'm done testing :P :P :P
[04:45] <magnetron> ScottishDuckHunt: Wine is better than Cedega for 3d now
[04:45] <Gnea> ScottishDuckHunt: if you play your cards right, you could run cedega and the vm at the same time ;)
[04:45] <Mark_> its not working
[04:45] <kitche> ari_stress: not that I know of but the install disk for it has an option though
[04:45] <bronze> Frogzoo, I need it for DVDs, not CDs
[04:45] <ScottishDuckHunt> anyt1 else had a try of ubuntu 7.10?
[04:45] <Mark_> its my main OS
[04:45] <ScottishDuckHunt> i found quiter stable weirdly
[04:45] <Dr_willis> ScottishDuckHunt,  ive learned it pays to wait for the things to actually get released. :)
[04:45] <Paumad> hello
[04:45] <Gnea> magnetron: who are you and why do you spread BS?
[04:46] <Paumad> im having a problem with a usb key
[04:46] <romperstomper> compiz problem>hi, i've got a problem. In the gconf-editor i have set up the skydome images and the superior and inferior faces of the cube of compiz, but them don't appear
[04:46] <ScottishDuckHunt> I remember i did the Vista Alpha/Beta tests.... what a nightmare...

[04:46] <ubotu> Gnea: The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[04:46] <Paumad> my computer doesnt recognize my key
[04:46] <Gnea> magnetron: there's nothing wrong with having an attitude.
[04:47] <Gnea> magnetron: i just asked you a simple question, that's all.
[04:47] <marmer> ciao a tutti
[04:47] <ari_stress> kitche: the reason why i ask this is because bandwidth in my country is very expensive. i have both the iso of server and default. if server release has all server packages, and desktop has desktop packages, then all i have to do is "combine" both iso, so that I can install either server packages or desktop packages.
[04:47] <ScottishDuckHunt> Magnetron: hes simply making the point that VM is better than wine (i think)
[04:47] <wesolek> my system won't boot up after the kernel update
[04:47] <kitche> ari_stress: umm well no you can't at least from what I know
[04:47] <Paumad> how do i get autoconnect to recognize it?
[04:47] <marmer> ho scaricato wine, ho lanciato l'installer di skype, dove lo ha installato?
[04:47] <Ireal> i think he didn't agree to the wine > cedega for 3d statement :)
[04:47] <marmer> ops
[04:47] <marmer> sorry
[04:47] <Mark_> so is VMware better
[04:47] <ari_stress> kitche: :(
[04:47] <Gnea> no, i'm making the point that the VM will play the games, but cedega will play them better, AND that cedega has proper 3D and wine simply does not.
[04:47] <ScottishDuckHunt> VMWAre is much better
[04:48] <jrib> Mark_: why not try both and use what works for you?
[04:48] <ScottishDuckHunt> as it has 100% compatability
[04:48] <magnetron> Gnea: what games do you run with 3D acceleration in Qemu?
[04:48] <bobsomebody> where does gnome art hide its background images?
[04:48] <Ireal> if you can run vmware, why not just dualboot?
[04:48] <ScottishDuckHunt> Lol oh yea
[04:48] <wesolek> can anybody help me out as I am afraid of rebooting my system... it may not come up again
[04:48] <ScottishDuckHunt> VMWare means no reboots tho...
[04:49] <Mark_> i cant partition my drive
[04:49] <Ireal> ScottishDuckHunt: at a cost :)
[04:49] <Gnea> magnetron: actually, i don't bother with the qemu, and i haven't run games in it in a very long time. CS and Warcraft a few years ago with vmware.
[04:49] <ScottishDuckHunt> yea lol
[04:49] <magnetron> ScottishDuckHunt: running a game in vmware will make it crawl. try wine first
[04:49] <Gnea> magnetron: and what games work better for you in wine than with cedega?
[04:49] <ScottishDuckHunt> but if you have a real power PC then you wont see much performance loss :D
[04:49] <tannerld> anyone in here use recordMyDesktop?
[04:49] <magnetron> Gnea: Wow
[04:49] <user_> jo
[04:49] <bobsomebody> is anyone using art manager
[04:49] <ScottishDuckHunt> WoW is a low spec game tho

[04:53] <Dr_willis> wesolek,  blacklist the module you dont want to load.  and load the module you do want to load.
[04:53] <ScottishDuckHunt> bots are cool
[04:53] <ScottishDuckHunt> lol
[04:54] <Dr_willis> wesolek,  # /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time.
[04:54] <bobsomebody> so does anyone have any ideas?
[04:54] <magnetron> ScottishDuckHunt: try some of those apps before you call them crap
[04:54] <raf256> why ubuntu brings so meany noobs to linux world?
[04:54] <wesolek> dr_willis... thanks, but I am quite a newbie, and "blacklist" makes no sense to me :)
[04:54] <Gnea> raf256: cuz it's easy to use :)
[04:54] <magnetron> raf256: for the fun of it?
[04:54] <ScottishDuckHunt> any1 know how to get MP3 support for amarok in 64-bit? (this is a tough one...)
[04:54] <LCCUB> good starting point?
[04:55] <ScottishDuckHunt> because theres no xine libs for 64-bit
[04:55] <Dr_willis> wesolek,  theres a blacklist file. that has a list of modules to not autoload. If you dont understand the term 'blacklist' :) its a referance to people/things to be 'ignored/refused'
[04:55] <wesolek> ok... dr_willis :) hold on one sec
[04:55] <Gnea> ScottishDuckHunt: you have to setup a 32bit compatibility layer
[04:55] <Dr_willis> wesolek,  its /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[04:55] <ScottishDuckHunt> i want to be 100% 64-bit tho :(
[04:55] <ScottishDuckHunt> oh well
[04:55] <Gnea> so do i, but it's not there yet
[04:55] <raf256> is there an ubuntu channel less for-noobs?
[04:56] <jrib> raf256: this channel is for all levels of support
[04:56] <yondie> raf256: dunno
[04:56] <wesolek> I do understand blacklist... oh... hard for me to explain and it's so slow... dr_willis
[04:56] <Ubuntu> quit
[04:56] <Dr_willis> raf256, ya want a #ubuntu-advanced ? :)
[04:56] <raf256> is there one just for for advanced level of support (with less nosie/trafic)
[04:56] <yondie> anyway guys does anyone know how to build the zydas z1211 driver on feisty?
[04:56] <ScottishDuckHunt> any1 fancy conveting all linux files into 64-bit (Reward 10)?
[04:56] <jrib> raf256: no
[04:56] <yondie> need help setting my wireless dongle

[04:56] <defrysk> Fermi, !
[04:57] <wesolek> thanks sebest
[04:57] <sebest> web_knows, just add a line like this: "blacklist your_module"
[04:57] <wesolek> will do
[04:57] <ScottishDuckHunt> yondie? what card do you have?
[04:57] <sebest> wesolek, and then you add the module that you really want inside /etc/modules
[04:57] <Gnea> !cn | defrysk
[04:57] <Gnea> !cn | Fermi
[04:57] <wesolek> thanks sebest

[04:59] <george_looney> hi there people
[04:59] <xijiao> 
[04:59] <george_looney> I have a nasty package that is stuck
[04:59] <george_looney> how do I get rid of it?
[04:59] <xijiao> sorry
[04:59] <Ireal> george_looney: is it on strike? or did it lose consciousness?
[04:59] <Gnea> george_looney: what package? how is it stuck?
[04:59] <ScottishDuckHunt> defrysk: just read Dummies guid to Chinese
[04:59] <Draconicus> Alright, WHAT THE HELL?! I'm getting so goddamned sick of this! Firefox is using monospace for its GUI font. I've completely removed and reinstalled it, and it STILL does it! What is going on?!
[05:00] <ScottishDuckHunt> stop flaming thanks
[05:00] <Gnea> !language Draconicus
[05:00] <george_looney> Ireal: its broken and stuck in my throat ;)
[05:00] <Gnea> !language | Draconicus
[05:00] <ubotu> Draconicus: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[05:00] <defrysk> george_looney, try sudo apt-get -f install
[05:00] <busfahrer> I want to install a single package from feisty-backports, but I don't want to add it to sources.list, since I don't want the other updates in there. How to do this properly?
[05:00] <Draconicus> "Hell" is in the bible. I don't see how it could be offensive.
[05:00] <Gnea> Draconicus: calm yourself, then ask again.
[05:00] <Gnea> Draconicus: Channel rules. Respect them.
[05:00] <Ireal> Draconicus: goddamned isn't i think ^_^
[05:00] <ScottishDuckHunt> Draconious: the context is considered offensive
[05:01] <Gnea> Draconicus: I don't care, show some respect or you won't get any.
[05:01] <george_looney> Gnea: its mldonkey-server
[05:01] <defrysk> Draconicus, blah blah
[05:01] <Dr_willis> 'remove/reinstall' is from the windows-bible-of-fix's also.. rarely works under linux.
[05:01] <Nutubuntu> I've just installed Feisty, and I've noticed that Firefox (Firefox/2.0.0.4 (Ubuntu-feisty)) crashes repeatedly. Is this a known issue? If so, is there a fix?
[05:01] <george_looney> I am on Ubuntu Dapper Drake
[05:01] <defrysk> george_looney, try sudo apt-get -f install
[05:01] <Draconicus> Gnea: You try dealing with this for three months and then being calm about it.
[05:01] <george_looney> defrysk: Did that
[05:01] <defrysk> ok
[05:01] <ScottishDuckHunt> draconious: fonts are not a life threatening thing
[05:01] <kitche> Nutubuntu: you got flash installed by chance?
[05:02] <Dr_willis> i dont see my fonts being monospaced in firefox either...
[05:02] <Gnea> Draconicus: that's no excuse. If you are unwilling to calm yourself, there are those who will show you which way to 'forceful' help is at.
[05:02] <magnetron> Nutubuntu: how did you install firefox2?
[05:02] <Nutubuntu> kitche, no flash, at least not yet
[05:02] <george_looney> I get Fatal Error: (empty lexing token)
[05:02] <Dr_willis> createing a new user, and seeing if the problem exists for them is one way to test to see if its a USER SETTING issue. or a system wide issue.
[05:02] <Nutubuntu> magnetron, it was part of the Feisty stock install
[05:02] <magnetron> !info firefox
[05:02] <ubotu> firefox: lightweight web browser based on Mozilla. In component main, is optional. Version 2.0.0.4+1-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 9012 kB, installed size 28592 kB
[05:02] <Draconicus> Gnea: My apologies. Thanks for spamming the channel to death in reprimand.
[05:02] <guni> nobody in here playing around with lvm and cryptsetup?
[05:03] <ScottishDuckHunt> lol tahts not spam
[05:03] <Draconicus> Four lines to say "watch the language"?
[05:03] <magnetron> !support
[05:03] <ubotu> support is The official ubuntu support channel is #ubuntu. Also see http://ubuntu.com/support and http://ubuntuforums.org
[05:03] <ScottishDuckHunt> ill go on 4chan and they can give you spam :)
[05:03] <george_looney> I believe thr propah word is "flood"
[05:03] <Draconicus> ANYWAY, getting back to the point...
[05:03] <Gnea> yes..
[05:03] <defrysk> george_looney,  try sudo aptitude -f install
[05:03] <Draconicus> This only happens with this installation. It's very strange. I can't figure it out at all.
[05:03] <george_looney> ok
[05:03] <busfahrer> I want to install a single package from feisty-backports, but I don't want to add it to sources.list, since I don't want the other updates in there. How to do this properly?
[05:04] <george_looney> there is a problem with the post-installation script
[05:04] <Ireal> Draconicus: the fonts are alright with other gtk apps ?
[05:04] <george_looney> anyway way I could remove it manually
[05:04] <Glave> do you have to mount samba shares in order to play an mp3 from it? I can browse straight to the share and file, but when I double click, I get an error saying I do not have a plugin that can handle that location
[05:04] <defrysk> busfahrer, add backports, then install the package, then remove backports again
[05:04] <busfahrer> defrysk: Won't that cause breakage?
[05:04] <Nutubuntu> busfahrer, you could d/l the package and apt-get install it, or you could update sources.list, install the package, and update sources.list again deleting backports repos
[05:05] <root___> hi guys im running apache (not apache2) i want to setup mysql with phpmyadmin  what is the recommended install and order
[05:05] <defrysk> busfahrer, nope , why ?
[05:05] <Draconicus> Ireal: Everything else.
[05:05] <Ireal> Draconicus: strange
[05:05] <Gnea> Draconicus: is the problem similar to this one? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/36585
[05:05] <magnetron> busfahrer: add the repositorie, don't mark upgrades, install the package, remove the repository again. use synaptic for the repository selection.
[05:05] <george_looney> defrysk: I think I have got it
[05:05] <Dr_willis> Glave,  using the file managers samba browser is not the same as mounting them. Yes. i DO mount samba shares to play video/audio files directly.
[05:05] <george_looney> *Re-Install*
[05:05] <george_looney> /LOL/
[05:05] <Draconicus> Gnea: Not in the slightest. I've already been through the bugs.
[05:05] <defrysk> george_looney, also an option to try
[05:06] <Ireal> george_looney: you could try to force the package :)
[05:06] <Glave> Dr_willis: so there's no way to play a file by accessing it like smb://servername/sharename/directory/filename.mp3  ?
[05:06] <george_looney> defrysk: no no not just the package, I menat the whole deal - Ubuntu :D
[05:06] <Draconicus> It may have something to do with the fact that I have a whole bunch of custom fonts in .fonts.
[05:06] <Gnea> Draconicus: well, you're going to have to be a bit more specific as to what the real problem is instead of brushing aside any attempts to help.
[05:06] <george_looney> Ireal: like using the "-f" option?
[05:06] <Ireal> george_looney: dpkg -i --force-all yourpackage.deb something along those lines :)
[05:06] <george_looney> Ireal: ok lemm try that
[05:06] <root___> hi guys im running apache (not apache2) i want to setup mysql with phpmyadmin  what is the recommended install and order
[05:06] <Ireal> it's not the normal way to go though ;
[05:07] <george_looney> Ireal: Does it work with remove as well?
[05:07] <Gnea> Draconicus: so why not quit firefox, empty the folder out, and try launching it again?
[05:07] <defrysk> george_looney, was it a package from the ubuntu repository ?
[05:07] <Ireal> george_looney: dunno, but if you've installed it, you can always remove it normally :)
[05:07] <gordonjcp> root___: recommendations?  1) don't irc as root, 2) don't use apache
[05:07] <Draconicus> Gnea: I completely removed .mozilla, completely removed the firefox package, reinstalled, no fix.

[05:10] <eguzkia> i have an old nvidia and i have installd nvidia-glx-legacy can i use beryl
[05:10] <george_looney> Ireal: no problem...it is just a package that has not been tested properly
[05:10] <Ireal> Draconicus: if you use thunderbird, does the same problem occur?
[05:10] <Draconicus> Ireal: I've been dealing with that for months. Makes everything a pain, but I can live with it. Problem is that I don't want to anymore. I have four other machines in this house with feisty, and none of them look like this.
[05:10] <george_looney> Ireal: I believe it is from Multiverse
[05:10] <george_looney> Ireal: So I asked for it :)
[05:10] <Draconicus> Ireal: Don't you mean <INSERT NEW NAME HERE>? :P
[05:10] <Gnea> Draconicus: that doesn't look like the default firefox theme...
[05:10] <Draconicus> Ireal: It might be gecko-exclusive, if that's what you mean.
[05:10] <Draconicus> Gnea: It is. My system theme does that.
[05:10] <JC_Denton_> upgraded to 7.04 and I can't even login ? no k/b input
[05:11] <Ireal> Draconicus: well no, cause thunderbird was built on the same platform :) and your gecko seems to be doing just fine :)
[05:11] <RodGo> please i need some help, i just cant logout, i get a black screen and cant do anything
[05:11] <Gnea> Draconicus: 'system theme'? you mean gnome?

[05:11] <TurtleBoots> hi all
[05:11] <Gnea> Draconicus: have you tried fluxbox?
[05:11] <tanaka> an any of you guys please tell me if its possible to install linux,by first installing it on vmware and then copying the installation to a partition using some way
[05:11] <Draconicus> Gnea: No. Leave me alone.
[05:11] <TurtleBoots> I've just downloaded a splash screen does anyone know how to put splash screens in place?
[05:11] <Gnea> Draconicus: sod off.
[05:12] <Draconicus> Ireal: This might be easier to deal with if we go to PM. It's messy in here. Would you mind?
[05:12] <Ireal> no i won't mind, but i'm kind of semi-active ;)
[05:12] <TurtleBoots> !splash
[05:12] <ubotu> To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.
[05:12] <TurtleBoots>  !gconf-editor
[05:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gconf-editor - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[05:13] <eljak> logixoul, do an apt-get install sun and hit the tab key you will get a list of packages available
[05:13] <defrysk> logixoul, sun-java6-jdk
[05:14] <TurtleBoots> !gnome-splashscreen-manager
[05:14] <kitche> logixoul: sun-java6-jre is for the runtime environment
[05:14] <logixoul> kitche: jre and *not* jdk, right?
[05:15] <logixoul> for running software, not for development
[05:15] <kitche> logixoul: yeah jdk is the vm plus the developer tools
[05:15] <defrysk> jdk is the development kit and also includes jre
[05:15] <logixoul> k, thanks defrysk, kitche, eljak.
[05:15] <JC_Denton_> in the splash screen manager - what is meant by the face browser?
[05:16] <logixoul> JC_Denton_: a list widget that shows you all available user accounts
[05:16] <logixoul> (that's not splash screen - it's the login manager kdm)
[05:16] <JC_Denton_> logixoul , ty
[05:16] <logixoul> np
[05:16] <JC_Denton_> logixoul , eh of course , login manager
[05:17] <mpoz2> I probably found a trivial error in a libgtk source file. It's a typo ("p'sition" instead of "position" in gtkruler.h line 123). Version: 2.10.11-0ubuntu3 (on Feisty). Who would be authorized/able to fix it?
[05:17] <nivekc1> how do i remove an xgl session i created
[05:17] <logixoul> mpoz2: ask in #gnome I guess
[05:17] <jrib> mpoz2: file a bug
[05:18] <eljak> logixoul, you maybe need also to do #sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-xxx-sun and edit /etc/jvm to add the path you installed package so it can be used by default
[05:18] <jrib> mpoz2: note that that typo is not present here though
[05:19] <logixoul> eljak: ok
[05:19] <Gunmanic> Hey peeps, I'm trying to compile a certain program and I need the headers and libs for Qt 3.0 where can I get those?
[05:19] <jrib> !compiling > Gunmanic (see the private message from ubotu)
[05:19] <logixoul> use adept-manager to install them
[05:19] <ferronica> ubuntu 7.04 GNOME  and Windows Xp Pro dual boot is okay ?????
[05:19] <logixoul> ferryes
[05:19] <jrib> ferronica: yes
[05:19] <mpoz2> jrib: hm, maybe file corruption on my system? do you have the same version installed?
[05:19] <adaptr> does it work ???????
[05:20] <logixoul> hm? does what work?
[05:20] <jrib> mpoz2: yeah, try grabbing the source again
[05:20] <Gunmanic> ligxoul: you mean apt-get?
[05:20] <ferronica> jrib; can install ubuntu over windows Xp Pro
[05:20] <jrib> ferronica: yes
[05:20] <Gunmanic> logicxoul*
[05:20] <logixoul> wrong again :)
[05:20] <jrib> !dual > ferronica (see the private message from ubotu)
[05:20] <ferronica> jrib; total 80 GB HDD
[05:20] <Gunmanic> feck :P
[05:20] <ferronica> jrib; okay
[05:20] <logixoul> Gunmanic: I mean whatever package manager you are using. That would be Adept for me.
[05:21] <Gunmanic> so it would be a command simmilar to this apt-get install Qt ?
[05:21] <mpoz2> jrib: thx for the hint. now it's fine. but scary nonetheless.
[05:22] <logixoul> Gunmanic: yes, but not exactly - the package name is likely something along the lines of qt3-devel
[05:22] <jrib> Gunmanic: search for packages with "lib" "qt" and "dev" in the name
[05:22] <logixoul> Gunmanic: learn your tools ;)

[05:23] <yondie> Tawanda: u got three choice
[05:23] <logixoul> Kaffeine
[05:23] <yondie> : Xine engine, gstreamer , and w32codecs
[05:23] <Tawanda> kaffeine is a player?
[05:23] <logixoul> yep

[05:31] <logixoul> ffm: yup. I guess you could se KNY's suggestion then
[05:32] <logixoul> see
[05:32] <ffm> KNY, logixoul, it is just a single file.
[05:32] <logixoul> aha and?
[05:32] <KNY> then you're fooked, I believe (due to journaling, IIRC)
[05:32] <ffm> logixoul, why would I BaN just for a single fille.
[05:33] <ffm> So, can I mount my ext3 as an ext2 partition?
[05:33] <logixoul> ah
[05:33] <jrib> ffm: shred?
[05:33] <logixoul> jrib: not for ext3
[05:33] <ffm> jrib, Journaling filesystem.

[05:38] <cactusbin> I've been having some troubles with my wireless. My wireless works almost perfectly except when I download things from bittorrent. I have tried multiple clients, Deluge, Azerous, Bitcomet, and the official client. Every time I try to download I get decent speeds (30-50 kb/s) for about 4 minutes, then it dies. Everything drops to 0. When I try to ping It says no buffer space avaliable. The network manager doesn't say I disconnected but 
[05:38] <cactusbin> I have to reboot before it works
[05:39] <Xago> i'm facing an issue with a data-show...i'm seeing the screen like blinking or the screen moving
[05:39] <jrib> sean__: weird, what if you unmount it and then reread fstab?  sudo umount /dev/sdb1 && sudo mount -a
[05:39] <cactusbin> Does anyone know what's wrong? I ran dmesg and posted the resaults at: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=481893

[05:43] <teknoboi> hello, i am wondering if someone might be able to help me out with gui's for ubuntu
[05:43] <jrib> sean__: right, we didn't change fstab.  fstab looks fine.  What is the output of: ls -ld /media/sdb1
[05:43] <logixoul> is that how they named the fork? not coral?
[05:44] <logixoul> merge*
[05:44] <firedrops> not coral

[05:44] <magnetron> !ask | teknoboi
[05:44] <ubotu> teknoboi: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:45] <teknoboi> well im interested in finding a gui for it or if it has one prepackaged, installing it and loading it or whatnot
[05:45] <teknoboi> im new to the whole linux thing
[05:45] <t2> i installed KDE on Xunbuntu feisty and i cannot see the power managment tab in KDE control center ... can anyone tell me how to get this as i would like to have my desktop suspend to ram when im not using it ...
[05:46] <magnetron> teknoboi: the standard ubuntu comes with a nice GUI, it's called GNOME. just install Ubuntu and the GUI will be there
[05:46] <jrib> sean__: well now you should be able to read it at least, though I'm not sure why you can't write as a user still
[05:46] <teknoboi> i installed the server version of ubuntu because i need the lamp installation
[05:46] <teknoboi> but it boots up into command line
[05:47] <magnetron> teknoboi: you could install the "ubuntu-desktop" package, then it would be graphical
[05:47] <sean__> jrib: they arent in their folders, the hd's
[05:47] <teknoboi> how do i do that exactly (sorry..im an idiot) lol
[05:47] <Montaro> apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[05:47] <ruphy> timeleft
[05:47] <jrib> sean__: what is the output of 'mount'
[05:47] <VoX> teknoboi: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[05:47] <Montaro> but you really need to learn about apt a little
[05:48] <magnetron> teknoboi: log in into the commandline, type "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop"
[05:48] <sean__> jrib: what do you mean?
[05:48] <Montaro> it will be your best friend all the way thru your ubuntu experience
[05:48] <teknoboi> ok brb
[05:48] <jrib> sean__: type 'mount' and press enter, then pastebin the output
[05:48] <Umbriel> Hi all, I have a problem with grub everytime I update the kernel, it automatically updates the menu.lst to add the new kernel image, but doing this points the partition to (hd2,1) which was value when it was installed the first time, now should be (hd3,1). Where can I change that so the updates will leave the (hd3,1) as is?
[05:49] <sean__> jrib: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26893/
[05:49] <jrib> sean__: what is the output of 'sudo mount -a'?
[05:49] <liquiddoom> If I set up LVM on some drives here then boot them in an existing copy of ubuntu, will they be properly recognized?
[05:49] <teknoboi> okay its installing
[05:50] <sean__> jrib: mount: unknown filesystem type 'ntfs-fuse'
[05:50] <teknoboi> will it automatically install so it starts when i boot the computer
[05:50] <magnetron> teknoboi: yes
[05:50] <skarta> hi there
[05:50] <teknoboi> awesome
[05:51] <jrib> sean__: do you want to write to your disks too?
[05:51] <skarta> i installed ubuntu but als need windows
[05:51] <sean__> jrib: yes
[05:51] <skarta> what do i have to do for dual boot?

[05:51] <bulmer> skarta: disk space and the 2nd os
[05:52] <skarta> will it automatically ask me to choose which os to boot bulmer?
 Yes

[05:54] <sean__> jrib: worked, thanks

[05:55] <chris_> can any one help me?  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=481999
[05:55] <JC_Denton_> what to do if after an upgrade your k/b no longer works?
[05:55] <teknoboi> im assuming gnome is pretty advanced considering it takes up 1.4 gigs
 Advanced maybe. Bloated yes
[05:56] <teknoboi> lol
[05:56] <teknoboi> it appears so :-P
[05:56] <NickGarvey> where can I find a table of vga codes to pass to the kernel?
[05:56] <fuzzy_logic> gnome bloated?! i find it much lighter than kde
[05:56] <NickGarvey> yeah well I have no GUI so take that
[05:56] <liquiddoom> Of course
[05:56] <Ireal> FIGHT!</darkvoice>
[05:56] <NickGarvey> ok anyawy
[05:56] <zero-9376> im having a weird problem with heliodor, when i click the titlebar there is no options for moving the windows to another viewport, these exist when using plain metacity and i believe they were there when i was using edgy but not there with beryl in feisty
[05:56] <teknoboi> it definitely takes a while to download thats for sure
[05:56] <teknoboi> lol
[05:57] <Ireal> finish him! gnomality~
[05:57] <NickGarvey> which brings me to why I need to find those vga codes because.. big font on a big monitor is a waste
[05:57] <rausb0> NickGarvey: /usr/src/linux/Documentation/fb/vesafb.txt
[05:57] <NickGarvey> rausb0: thank you very much
[05:57] <Ireal> NickGarvey: 791 was 1024x768 if i remember correctly
[05:58] <zero-9376> i think 795 is 1280x1024
[05:58] <NickGarvey> I'm hoping there is 1440x900 heh
[05:58] <liquid-punk> hello, does ndiswrapper work with network-manager?
[05:58] <NickGarvey> not getting my hopes up though
[05:58] <liquid-punk> and also is it normal for suspend not to work off the live-cd?
[05:58] <fuzzy_logic> liquid-punk: i think not
[05:58] <rausb0> NickGarvey: no, 1440x900 is not a vesa mode
[05:59] <zero-9376> NickGarvey: I was looking into widescreen resolutions, apparently its possible but u need other things installed, the info was on a gentoo wiki i think
[05:59] <NickGarvey> zero-9376: I'll check it out
[06:00] <NickGarvey> thanks rausb0 and zero-9376
[06:02] <tomer> hi how do i mount a windows share?
[06:02] <NaNO2x> anyone know how i can get the md5 checksum on a folder?
 A windows network share (samba)?
[06:03] <tomer> yes. i see it in the network view of gnome,  but i want to create a permanent link to it
[06:03] <HOT> smbmount
[06:04] <adaptr> tomer mount -t cifs //hostname-or-ip/sharename /mount/point -o user=,password=
[06:04] <adaptr> tomer put it in fstab to make it "permanent"
[06:05] <Sam234> How do I enable the play, pause and stop keys for amarok? they worked before I reinstalled kde but will not work now.
[06:05] <adaptr> perhaps you need to re-set the global hotkeys for amarok
[06:05] <Sam234> adaptr how do I do that?
[06:06] <Sam234> ah I see nvm
[06:06] <Sam234> adaptr cheers for that
[06:07] <tomer> thanks. i dont use a password or user name when doing it with the gnome network tool
 Try "guest"
 Instead of "user= password="
[06:09] <trekkme> is it possible to put a foler in the panel as a dropdown menue?

[06:09] <trekkme> folder...
[06:09] <Scruffman> why is it that when i have my pci express card in and i start up the computer, x fails to start
[06:10] <Scruffman> but when i use onboard it works
[06:10] <cman325> what kind of pciex
[06:10] <Scruffman> what do you mean what kind?
[06:10] <cman325> nvidia?
[06:10] <Scruffman> yeah
[06:10] <Scruffman> oh is it cuz of the driver thing
[06:10] <Sam234> I think I've broken my sound somehow. Kmix does not mute anything when I press the mute button. Winecfg tells me that it dosent detect my alsa driver and asks me to remove alsa from the registery. Also I cannot play my music with amarok and play the sound of guild wars using cedega at the same time. Does anybody know what could be causing these things?
[06:10] <cman325> yeah
[06:11] <cman325> you have to run that reconfigure-xorg thing
[06:11] <ompaul> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:11] <Scruffman> thanks

[06:17] <mindtzar> so yeah.. i'm using ubuntu 5.01 and was wondering if there was anyway that works with this distro to upgrade to a much later one. so far i've failed at this because everythinhg is documented for a later version :\
[06:17] <mario> hi
 Best bet is to backup and reinstall
[06:18] <mindtzar> ive got fiesty fawn on CD
 dist-upgrading once is risky, that many times is suicide (if you can still even do it)
[06:18] <mindtzar> can i upgrade with the upgrade option on that
 You would have to completely reinstall
[06:19] <[ThC] Primski> backup yes, then try dist-upgrade, if it fails, well reinstall :P
[06:19] <chaplin_pat> Anyone know how to import account settings from Winxp Thunderbird into Kmail?

[06:19] <mindtzar> bit of a pain eh
[06:20] <[ThC] Primski> yoiu need alternative cd then
[06:20] <[ThC] Primski> and carefully choose what to install, ie, u can forget the X system :)
[06:21] <liquiddoom> It's not X that gets you. It's the DE

[06:21] <[ThC] Primski> well yea

[06:22] <tom_> Hey Guys - i have Compiz Fusion installed (its awesome btw) but how do i go about changing the window decorations? ive downloaded the theme i want but have no idea how to install it
[06:23] <macd> tom_, drag it into the theme manager
[06:24] <tom_> macd - i tried that but i get an error "The file format is invalid"
[06:24] <mindtzar> ;
[06:24] <mindtzar> is su
[06:25] <mindtzar> is dapper not available for upgrading to still?

[06:25] <wastedfluid> Anyone have problems with 7.04.. I can hibernate once, FINE.. but the second time I try to hibernate.. my power button goes off on my laptop, and the screen stays on.. black screen, and eventually it goes back to the login prompt, but it's as if your keyboard is disabled..
[06:26] <macd> tom_, if it is, just drag it into emerald theme manager
[06:26] <JC_Denton_> any reason why my install wont accept k/board input?
[06:27] <tom_> macd - im not sure actualy - ive just checked Synaptic and Emerald isnt isntalled...How do i find out which ones im using?
[06:27] <qaldune> jc_denton is it correctly plugged?
[06:27] <macd> you should see the small red ruby icon in the tasktray, right clicking on it will show the theme manager in use
[06:28] <macd> tom_, I suppose the tacktray icon could be different now that its not really _compiz_ anymore
[06:28] <tom_> macd: oh? Well ive installed Compiz Fusion so im guessing i should be able to use standard compiz themes still right?
[06:28] <macd> yes
[06:29] <juan278> on mount checking 1 of my drives fails so i have to kill the VT then manually mount, what should i do?
[06:29] <macd> and emerald themes, if emerald is installed and selected to be the window manager

[06:51] <Ailean> S0me1, no difference then? the ubuntu installer can handle it if i have a free partition?
[06:51] <defrysk> alienseer23, killall gnome-panel might help (not sure)
[06:51] <alienseer23> cman: trying to do this without ending session
[06:52] <S0me1> Ailean: yes
[06:52] <MattJ> cman325, alienseer23 that's a bit drastic

[06:53] <ubotu> perlmonkey: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[06:53] <S0me1> Ailean: what do you mean by FREE PARTITION?

[06:53] <[ThC] Primski> perlmonkey, sudo su - username -c 'command'

[06:53] <bruenig> perlmonkey, just su to the other user
[06:53] <Imsdle> i can't get my tv card to work

[06:53] <Ailean> S0me1 my disc is split into 2 partitions, one for vista and another for data - but i'm going to move the data onto the first partition and use the second for ubuntu
[06:53] <perlmonkey> the other user requires a pw tho and I dont know it
[06:53] <ali4728> MattJ: thanks
[06:53] <MrBerti> anyone can help? if i try to install ubuntu, a login screen appears. i dunno what to type in there 
[06:53] <cman325> I made killall a icon on my desktop lol
[06:53] <alienseer23> defrysk: nope
[06:53] <[ThC] Primski> then go sudo first, sudo -s
[06:54] <bruenig> perlmonkey, yeah you are going to need to know that
[06:54] <rjohnson> Sebastian - I used gparted to mount all my disks, you could give that a go, it has a friendly gui
[06:54] <perlmonkey> :-/
[06:54] <[ThC] Primski> and from root you can go, su - username, without a password
[06:54] <Overcast> "automount"
[06:54] <[ThC] Primski> perlmonkey ^
[06:54] <alienseer23> eh...just gonna restart session
[06:54] <matricule_4007> hello
[06:54] <S0me1> Ailean: I see , but do not create /boot during ubuntu installation
 anyone can help? if i try to install ubuntu, a login screen appears. i dunno what to type in there 
[06:54] <MattJ> perlmonkey, use sudo su, and enter your own password
[06:54] <Overcast> maybe the username you created on install
[06:55] <Ailean> S0me1 what do you mean?
[06:55] <Hexxeh> Hey guys
[06:55] <Hexxeh> I've installed Ubuntu 7.04
[06:55] <[ThC] Primski> Overcast, you mean live cd? or you allready installed ?
[06:55] <perlmonkey> thanks MattJ
[06:55] <Hexxeh> And I'm trying to get my dual monitors to work with my X1800XL All in Wonder
[06:55] <Hexxeh> Any ideas?
[06:55] <Hexxeh> Thanks.
[06:55] <Overcast> primski someone asked me that
[06:55] <Overcast> hes prolly already installed
[06:55] <Overcast> MrBerti
[06:55] <Evilc> so any idea's why i can't get my monitor higher than 800x600?
[06:55] <S0me1> Ailean: to a void MBR issue between Vista & Ubuntu
[06:56] <[ThC] Primski> overcast, then he must have supplied username/passowrd, during installation
[06:56] <ahf> #ubuntu+1
[06:56] <Ailean> S0me1 so there is a problem then? i need to learn about how it works? or does ubuntu take care of it?
[06:56] <Overcast> must have
[06:56] <Overcast> but he doesnt realize that
[06:56] <[ThC] Primski> :s
[06:57] <[ThC] Primski> problem then, maybe boot to rescue mode and try changing pass? dunno just a thought
[06:57] <teknobo1> could someone give me the proper format for the make command
[06:57] <S0me1> Ailean: 1- back up your data 2- when you install Ubuntu make sure you know partition size 3- just make swap and  / ,when you try install Ubuntu
[06:57] <Hexxeh> Anyone?
[06:58] <Ailean> S0me1 so how does your computer boot into ubuntu then?
[06:58] <S0me1> Ailean: Ubuntu smart it can know vista
[06:58] <[ThC] Primski> Hexxeh, there is a good guide on ubuntuforums.org search for it
[06:58] <[ThC] Primski> dual monitor + ati
[06:58] <Overcast> primski, just do single user mode and reset pass that way.. but yes alas the user doesnt know how
[06:58] <Hexxeh> I found this one, but it's not worked: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1773710
[06:58] <teknobo1> im really confused as to how to install proftpd
[06:59] <omha> hey
[06:59] <cman325> teknobo1 try this   http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#FTP_Server
[06:59] <S0me1> Ailean: what do you mean?
[06:59] <teknobo1> ok brb
[07:00] <Ailean> S0me1 i thought the /boot partition was needed to contain the kernel etc, and you're telling me not to create it?
[07:00] <S0me1> Ailean: It will be there when you have /
[07:00] <omha> im planning installing ubuntu on this laptop it has 2 120 gigs hdd's and i want to use a software raid 0, what is the best partition design?
[07:01] <Ailean> S0me1 thanks - i'll give it a try then. can always recover
[07:01] <S0me1> Ailean: I mean do not try put it under spurt partition
[07:01] <[ThC] Primski> Hexxeh, try this one http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=162363&highlight=dual+monitor+ati+howto
[07:01] <teknobo1> okay that was a lot easier
[07:01] <teknobo1> now if i install it as a standalone server it wont affect the rest of my lamp installation right
[07:01] <S0me1> Ailean: I found this for you http://apcmag.com/5046/how_to_dual_boot_vista_with_linux_vista_installed_first    :)
[07:01] <Hexxeh> [ThC] Primski: It says it's outdated.

[07:02] <cman325> teknobo1  nope it's seperate
[07:03] <teknobo1> kewl
[07:03] <Hexxeh> Hmm, what about aticonfig

[07:05] <dissection> Hi, I need some help with wvdial.. after it dials, its asking for a login and password even though that information is saved in /etc/wvdial.conf .. And nothing happens after I type the password
[07:05] <Overcast> teknobo1: what are you doing with your webserver
[07:05] <Overcast> is it production
[07:05] <Overcast> development
[07:05] <Overcast> interna?
[07:05] <Overcast> internal*
[07:05] <Overcast> business oriented eg webhosting?
[07:05] <Overcast> depends on what your doing with the webserver
[07:05] <Hexxeh> Ah, that's why, thanks [ThC] Primski
[07:05] <[ThC] Primski> :) np
[07:06] <teknobo1> its end user...using it to host customer/client pages & sites

[07:06] <Overcast> teknobo1: install ubuntu server with default options and then go download lamp
[07:06] <teknobo1> did that all ready
[07:06] <teknobo1> and now i install proftpd
[07:07] <teknobo1> installed rather
[07:07] <Overcast> ack, you want pureftpd not pro
[07:07] <teknobo1> proftpd was suggested to me
[07:07] <teknobo1> lol
[07:07] <cman325> teknobo1 WEBMIN!  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=431647
[07:07] <mac_> hi, can i have some help with vmware-server please?
[07:07] <Overcast> pro has a huge memory footprint, its good but pure is way better
[07:07] <dissection> Hi, I need some help with wvdial.. after it dials, its asking for a login and password even though that information is saved in /etc/wvdial.conf .. And nothing happens after I type the password
[07:07] <Overcast> and yes cman325 is correct, webmin is another good resource
[07:08] <teknobo1> this is a dedicated server-only box so memory footprint isnt a big deal to me
[07:08] <[ThC] Primski> teknobol, i suggest vsftpd, much better than proftpd
[07:08] <Overcast> especially for development, but make sure you are behind a router and only have the ports you need forwarded to your server
[07:08] <[ThC] Primski> even easier to set up
[07:08] <Overcast> also make sure that your mysql server has a root password setup and restricted
[07:08] <Overcast> vsftpd is good, its what I use with DirectAdmin for professional hosting
[07:08] <Overcast> works with with DA
[07:08] <kepler> hi guys, i have a networking question
[07:08] <[ThC] Primski> i use it too, had constant problems with proftpd
[07:08] <teknobo1> okay
[07:09] <Overcast> I used cpanel/whm for years
[07:09] <RivaeAerya> Does anybody know some cool applets for the GNOME panel?
[07:09] <cman325> Maybe we should write one of those "the perfect lamp server guides" overcast
[07:09] <Overcast> hated how there were security exploits for it ever couple days
[07:09] <teknobo1> i debated using cpanle
[07:09] <teknobo1> but its expensive lol
[07:09] <Overcast> so I finally switched to using DirectAdmin
[07:09] <dissection> Hi, I need some help with wvdial.. after it dials, its asking for a login and password even though that information is saved in /etc/wvdial.conf .. And nothing happens after I type the password
[07:09] <Overcast> DirectAdmin is 10x better for 10x cheaper... you can get a full year license from DA for 85 bucks
[07:09] <[ThC] Primski> i ran on 'ISPConfig' the other day, equivalent to Cpanel, free ofc :) didnt try it tho yet
[07:09] <teknobo1> oh kewl
[07:09] <kitche> Overcast: and your suggesting someone use webmin but you complain about security problems with cpanel?
[07:10] <Overcast> webmin is free, hes using it for dev
[07:10] <Overcast> not production
[07:10] <askand> I have a strange soundproblem and hope someone can help me.. I have three buttons on the side of my laptop; rase volume, lower volume and silence. If I lower the volume as much as I can the volume is still not silent..I have to press "silence button" to make it quiet..this is a veryy recent problem..it worked nice before..how can I fix it?
[07:10] <Overcast> I would NEVER recommend webmin for a production server
[07:10] <[PSyKo] > i seaarch a 3gp => avi (divx) converter
[07:10] <teknobo1> well production is going to be a goal in the very near future
[07:10] <Overcast> I use DirectAdmin
[07:10] <kepler> I am trying to debug a connectivity problem.  as a side issue, I can do:  'ping 192.168.1.88' just fine, that's a machine on my lan.  but if I try to ping '192.168.1.99' (which is not an active host), I get 'destination host unreachable'...  why am I getting 'destination host unreachable' instead of just no reply?

[07:11] <cyberkilla> Hello
[07:11] <yuck> in the terminal, ubuntu asks me to insert my CD. I do and hit enter. it doesnt do anything. I can sit there for ever hitting enter and it keeps saying to insert the ubuntu cd. whats wrong with it?
[07:11] <sebas_> how can i get my MAC address by command?
[07:11] <Overcast> teknobo1: then if you want to do it right look into DirectAdmin... not sure it works with ubuntu yet tho

[07:12] <dissection> Hi, I need some help with wvdial.. after it dials, its asking for a login and password even though that information is saved in /etc/wvdial.conf .. And nothing happens after I type the password
[07:12] <dissection> anyone?
[07:12] <sebas_> thank you, Frogzoo_
[07:12] <Overcast> teknobo1: you may have to use a redhat distro for that, but its fairly good. easy to use and setup and recompiling apache and php is a brease on it
[07:12] <yuck>  in the terminal, ubuntu asks me to insert my CD. I do and hit enter. it doesnt do anything. I can sit there for ever hitting enter and it keeps saying to insert the ubuntu cd. whats wrong with it?
[07:12] <cman325> yuck: try this   sudo nano -w /etc/apt/sources.list  and put a # symbol in front of the cdrom lines.  This stops apt from accessing the cdrom for packages.
[07:12] <askand> [PSyKo] : http://www.miksoft.net/mobileMediaConverter.htm
[07:13] <cman325> yuck: ctrl+O to save and ctrl+X to exit the editor

[07:14] <yuck> cman325: i dont think i have any cdrom lines. its all internet.
[07:14] <yuck> cman325: aha. the top
[07:14] <cman325> yuck:  thats the one should be two.. Usually ones already got a mark on it and the other doesn't.
[07:14] <Overcast> cman325: he would know.. he went from being a windows user to being a linux user in about 3 to 4 weeks tops
[07:14] <Overcast> and he doesnt use windows at all anymore :P
[07:14] <RivaeAerya> Does anybody know some cool applets for the GNOME panel?
[07:15] <cman325> I still fix it though
[07:15] <Overcast> yeah
[07:15] <Overcast> u would :P
[07:15] <yuck> cman325: ok. now that's done. i'll try to install al that other stuff in the terminal
[07:15] <dissection> Hi, I need some help with wvdial.. after it dials, its asking for a login and password even though that information is saved in /etc/wvdial.conf .. And nothing happens after I type the password

[07:16] <ffm> How do I defrag my microSD card which is fat32 formatted in linux?
[07:17] <dissection> Hi, I need some help with wvdial.. after it dials, its asking for a login and password even though that information is saved in /etc/wvdial.conf .. And nothing happens after I type the password
[07:17] <cman325> ffm:  why would you want to do a thing like that?
[07:17] <adaptr> defrag ? how about you tar it up and put it back ?
[07:17] <Overcast> lol
[07:17] <cman325> ffm:  yeah I'd say backup your files and just reformat it with fat32
[07:17] <Overcast> how do you defrag a vfat part in linux
[07:17] <Overcast> lol
[07:17] <Overcast> you dont
[07:17] <Overcast> yeah
[07:17] <adaptr> ffm tar -cjf tempfile -C /path/to/SDcard, then rm -rf /sdcard, then untar it back
[07:17] <Overcast> thats the only wya to do it
[07:18] <cman325> hey! overcast as a friend not as a zealot
[07:18] <Overcast> ..?
[07:18] <adaptr> reformat is not necessary, since it doesn't retain any chain structures after you delete everything
[07:18] <dissection> Hi, I need some help with wvdial.. after it dials, its asking for a login and password even though that information is saved in /etc/wvdial.conf .. And nothing happens after I type the password
[07:18] <adaptr> but you can if you're inclined
[07:18] <yuck> cman325: perfect. thanks man.
[07:19] <Hexxeh> Okay, I've got both screens working now
[07:19] <yuck> cman325: it fixed it beautifully
[07:19] <cman325> adaptr:  you make me want to learn more bash
[07:19] <Hexxeh> Except the primary screen won't go to the right resolution, any ideas?
[07:19] <Overcast> yuck: see how good he is
[07:19] <Hexxeh> And also, I can't move windows between the two.
[07:19] <Overcast> cman325: bash is easy
[07:19] <kitche> why would you rm -rf /sdcard that would delete the mount point do rm -rf /path/to/sdcard/*
[07:19] <Overcast> lol
[07:19] <yuck> overcast: coolademanvoice, "oooohhh yeeeah!"
[07:19] <dissection> hello?
[07:19] <Overcast> kitche: that would have been a disaster in the making
[07:19] <adaptr> kitche yeah.. little pedant.. it was obviously "in spirit"

[07:28] <cman325> yuck: depending on the language being compiled and the size of the app
[07:28] <kitche> !noroot
[07:28] <ubotu> Regardless of your choice: Please do not advise against user security policy and create a root password, please see !rootsudo
[07:29] <Overcast> kitche: I know
[07:29] <Overcast> I did say its not a good idea
[07:29] <cman325> yuck: the more things you compile voer time the easier you'll be able to estimate how long.
[07:29] <Overand> how can i restore some deleted .conf files asociated with an app? (awstats)
[07:29] <Overcast> Overand: you cant
[07:29] <zero-9376> does anyone know what i should search for to get some answers on my question above
[07:29] <OConnor> kitche: Overcast : ty, it workd fine, sudo :P
[07:29] <Overand> i did aptitude remove awstats, atpitude install awstats, and even dpkg-reconfigure awstats
[07:29] <cman325> overcast:  Alex just got here were goin to get some grub and coffee.  15 mins sign on the door.
[07:29] <kitche> Overcast: just pointing it out to OConnor why it's not recommanded :)
[07:29] <zero-9376> i really just cant think of what it is called
[07:29] <Overand> Overcast: I just want the defaults from the original package
[07:29] <yuck> kitche: on the subject of sudo and root, how can i change the sudo timeout?
[07:29] <cman325> forwarded my phones to my cell
[07:30] <sebas_> is ubuntu libre and gratis?
[07:30] <kitche> yuck: umm no clue I only use sudo on my centos VPS
[07:30] <yuck> cman325: thanks for the help!
[07:30] <Overcast> cman325: ok, msg me when u get back
[07:30] <yuck> kitche: o, ok
[07:30] <Overcast> CentOS FTW
[07:31] <Overcast> Overand: apt-get remove awstats
[07:31] <Overcast> apt-get clean is it?
[07:31] <cman325> autoclean
[07:31] <Overcast> there you go
[07:31] <Overcast> apt-get autoclean
[07:31] <cman325> sudo apt-get remove packagename
[07:31] <Overcast> then re-install the package
[07:32] <SirSiggi> hi there, which driver for intel 855 graphics? the installation put vesa in the xorg.conf
[07:32] <tck> did anyones sound just stop working before?
[07:32] <tck> im using feisty
[07:32] <puppe> /exit
[07:32] <kitche> SirSiggi: i810 can be used
[07:33] <SirSiggi> thanks
[07:33] <askand>  I have a strange soundproblem and hope someone can help me.. I have three buttons on the side of my laptop; rase volume, lower volume and silence. If I lower the volume as much as I can the volume is still not silent..I have to press "silence button" to make it quiet..this is a veryy recent problem..it worked nice before..how can I fix it?
[07:34] <crocodile> can irssi or bitchx have tabs for different channels?  Or are they both 100% console and all done in one window
[07:34] <yondie> tck: it means u need to compile alsa back
[07:34] <VoX> crocodile: they're console
[07:34] <tck>  yondie god darn
[07:34] <VoX> crocodile: try x-chat if you want something graphical
[07:34] <tck> thought so, base and utils?
[07:34] <__mikem> Can someone help me generate a .deb file from an automake source package
[07:34] <Overand> it's still not making the config files
[07:34] <kitche> crocodile:  irssi uses a window system
[07:35] <pha|con> crocodile: in bitchx type /window new double on hide
[07:35] <crocodile> VoX - i tried it and the chat display is horrible :|  I dont like the way it separates the nickname
[07:35] <aleX-xx> then try irssi
[07:35] <Overand> Chatzilla, irssi, bitchx, ircII
[07:35] <pha|con> crocodile: then you can hit alt+2 to go to the new window.  repeat process to open new windows just replace alt+2 with alt+3 etc
[07:35] <Overand> there are tons and tons of options
[07:35] <Overcast> dont forget the good ol standby
[07:36] <Overcast> mirc
[07:36] <Overcast> <3
[07:36] <Overand> with wine
[07:36] <VoX> Overcast: get out
[07:36] <VoX> now
[07:36] <tck> err yondie you wont believe this, my SYNAPTIC has just disappeared off my system
[07:36] <VoX> :P
[07:36] <Overand> 'cuz that's *really* what we need to be doing
[07:36] <tck> vanised into thin air
[07:36] <aleX-xx> :)
[07:36] <crocodile> so irssi has clickable windows to change between channels?
[07:36] <VoX> crocodile: no
[07:36] <Overand> crocodile: not clickable
[07:36] <Overand> it's cinsole
[07:36] <Overand> it doesn't support mouse
[07:36] <Pici> irssi is a console irc client.
[07:36] <kitche> crocodile: you press alt+# to change between them
[07:36] <yondie> tck: your CLI will never disappear
[07:36] <pha|con> crocodile: if you're using CLI there isn't anything much that will be clickable
[07:36] <Overcast> VoX: lol ... suck it lol :P lol.... mirc is from like.. the 90's when it was one of the most popular irc apps
[07:37] <Overand> Overcast: we're pobably all familiar with mIRC.
[07:37] <tck> yondie, well when i issue, apt-get --purge remove alsa*
[07:37] <tck> i get NOTHING
[07:37] <Overcast> lol
[07:37] <tck> this laptop is from the twilight zone
[07:37] <Overcast> your from the twilight zone
[07:37] <teknobo1> webmin doesnt allow me to setup new users or anything right?
[07:37] <Overcast> u just dont know it yet
[07:37] <yondie> tck: i mean u download alsa from the alsa website
[07:37] <crocodile> mirc is still pretty customizable in all respects
[07:37] <yondie> not from the repo
[07:37] <tck> Overand, bite me
[07:37] <yondie> compile from source
[07:37] <Overcast> yes it does teknobo1 you can...
[07:38] <Overcast> webmin has modules
[07:38] <tck> Overand, your american, i'll forgive you :P
[07:38] <Overcast> www.webmin.com
[07:38] <tck> Overcast,
[07:38] <Overcast> or is it .org
[07:38] <Overcast> tck yes
[07:38] <tanaka> hi again
[07:39] <tck> time to test sbackup :P
[07:39] <Overand> tck: I'm sorry, you're forgiving me for what, saying that mIRC is well known?
[07:39] <Overand> tck: don't mix up Overcast and me.
[07:39] <Overcast> aparently they have something against mirc
[07:39] <teknobo1> but if i do it this way ill have to install a new unix user for each user i want access to the ftp server, etc right
[07:39] <tck> your rude comment
[07:39] <Overand> Overcast: i think it ws a tab-complet error
[07:39] <Overand> tck: there are two people here, "Overcast" and "Oerand"
[07:39] <tck> i know Overand i corrected it , sorry
[07:39] <Yehiaz> !ping
[07:39] <ubotu> pong
[07:39] <tck> tab completion
[07:39] <Overand> I said 'i think we're all familiar with mIRC"
[07:39] <Yehiaz> hmm
[07:40] <tck> relax Overand simple mistake
[07:40] <Overand> it's hardly me giving a closed-osource win32 app glowing praise
[07:40] <yondie> __mikem, : sudo apt-get install checkinstall
[07:40] <Overcast> teknobo1: yes, you will need a new unix user for every ftp user
[07:40] <Overand> tck: i will never relax!  vengence will be mine!!! (;
[07:40] <teknobo1> okay
[07:40] <Overand> You now owe me a blood debt.
[07:40] <yondie> __mikem, this is so far the most easiest stuff to generate deb package
[07:40] <pkundu> do anybody know how to customize fonts and color in xterm
[07:40] <teknobo1> this is very different from windows server systems lol
[07:40] <tck> sure Overand :P never give a irishman cause for vengence its well known :P
[07:40] <tanaka> can some one explain how to install skype on 64bit ubuntu,the skype website only has a 32bit pkg
[07:40] <incandenzian> About 10 minutes ago I ran a sudo command that overrode the Restricted Drivers Manager.
[07:40] <Overand> tanaka: you need ia32libs first off
[07:40] <yondie> __mikem: if u just follow the rule of ./configure  && make  && make install
[07:41] <navets> humm installed gtk-RecordMyDesktop but i still dont get a GUI? what am i doing wrong?
[07:41] <Overcast> teknobo1: linux != windows... windows is a ghey POS that was developed by a thief
[07:41] <incandenzian> now Ubuntu cannot load X.
[07:41] <Frogzoo_> teknobo1: unless you enable anonymous access
[07:41] <__mikem> yondie, that won't work on an automake package
[07:41] <yondie> __mikem, change it to ./configure && make && checkinstall
[07:41] <teknobo1> lol i dont disagree
[07:41] <incandenzian> my GUI.
[07:41] <tck> does anyone think feisty is more bugs than the previous release?
[07:41] <teknobo1> no anonymous access isnt possible
[07:41] <Overand> Overcast: so why do you keep suggesting mIRC and the like
[07:41] <tck> *has
[07:41] <Overcast> Frogzoo_: ewww anonymouse accesss
[07:41] <Evilc> hi, can anyone help with my display not showing higher than 800x600?
[07:41] <tanaka> Overand: got it
[07:41] <Frogzoo_> Overcast: it has its uses
[07:41] <Overcast> Overand: I really dont care, ive used all 3 major irc apps in the past
[07:42] <yondie> __mikem, if it ain`t work guess u need to dive into the packging manualy
[07:42] <Overand> have you used telent?
[07:42] <incandenzian> I'm guessing that the simplest solution to my problem is to just reinstall Ubuntu, I was just wondering if there's a way to disable the xorg.conf from the command line.
[07:42] <incandenzian> I'm sure there is, I just don't know how.
[07:42] <alexxx23> DCC SEND LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
[07:42] <harlock> DCC SEND LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
[07:42] <Overcast> Overand: have I used telnet. yes, back in the day. now I use ssh :P
[07:43] <yondie> i still use telnet . if i get bored and play with my router
[07:43] <Overcast> incandenzian: rm -rf /usr
[07:43] <Overcast> dont actually type that tho
[07:43] <kitche> incandenzian: do not do that
[07:43] <tck> need reboot
[07:43] <incandenzian> ?
[07:43] <Overand> Overcast: i meant telnet to an irc server
[07:44] <navets> humm installed gtk-RecordMyDesktop but i still dont get a GUI? what am i doing wrong?
[07:44] <incandenzian> can I stay in bitchx and execute that command?
[07:44] <Overand> Overcast: watch it with the trolling
[07:44] <PriceChild> incandenzian, Please never suggest something like that ever again
[07:44] <Overcast> Overand: naa,
[07:44] <kitche> incandenzian: no don't run that command
[07:44] <tanaka> what do i have to do next Overand?
[07:44] <perlmonkey> grrrrr
[07:44] <incandenzian> suggest what?
[07:44] <Overand> tanaka: I'm not sure - sorry =/
[07:44] <incandenzian> haha
[07:44] <kitche> PriceChild: umm that wasOvercast not incandenzian
[07:44] <PriceChild> kitche, incandenzian whoops sorr
[07:44] <yondie> telnet is nc -t
[07:45] <yondie> haha
[07:45] <Overand> PriceChild: and while you're at it, careful not to mix up me and Overcast
[07:45] <incandenzian> I've got Feisty on CD. I just didn't want to have to start over from scratch if I didn't have to.
[07:45] <Overand> yondie: netcat <3
[07:45] <PriceChild> Overand, :)
[07:45] <yondie> i love netcat
[07:45] <Overcast> I told the the person not to use the command :P
[07:45] <tanaka> does anyone know what to do next
[07:45] <kitche> incandenzian: do this sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf && sudo X --configure  and you should have X running again
[07:45] <incandenzian> I've got a Windows box I can use to find out what to do, I just didn't know where to start.
[07:45] <PriceChild> Overcast, still, please don't ever suggest it in the first place.
[07:45] <yondie> it helps me lot during my days of  some lame smashing stack
[07:45] <kitche> incandenzian: opps change the second xorg.conf to xorg.bak
[07:45] <incandenzian> OK, how do I do that from here?
[07:46] <incandenzian> I have to exit bitchx right?
[07:46] <Overcast> kitche: you just told him to copy his file to his file and then run configure
[07:46] <kitche> Overcast: I fixed it
[07:46] <Overcast> kitche: I thought so
[07:46] <gordonjcp> PriceChild: what's wrong with telnet?
[07:46] <PriceChild> gordonjcp, I haven't a clue?
[07:46] <incandenzian> there's no way to run that from within bitchx right?
[07:46] <kitche> gordonjcp: he's talking baout hte rm /usr command
[07:46] <Overand> telnet i 'fine' it's just 'insecure'
[07:47] <incandenzian> I'm sorry guys, I'm a total newbie when it comes to this stuff.
[07:47] <Overand> you don't want to be passing any information over telnet that you don't want people to read
[07:47] <gordonjcp> PriceChild: ah, sorry, thought you were talking about something else
[07:47] <yondie> Overand, well i doubt everyone use telnet these days
[07:47] <Overand> incandenzian: you can use virtual terminals - ALT-F1 etc
[07:47] <gordonjcp> kitche: for extra fun and games, try resizing /usr on a running system
[07:47] <kyrel> incandenzian, ctrl+alt+Fx (F1, F2, ect)
[07:47] <Overcast> Overand: hence why I use ssh :P
[07:47] <Overand> you're probably in the alt-F1 terminal right now
[07:47] <yondie> after all SSH is so powerful that it can also act as an S-Ftp
[07:47] <yondie> and blax3
[07:47] <Overand> yondie: scp, ssh tunnelling
[07:48] <Overand> tar | ssh ... "cat > .tar"
[07:48] <Senesence> Anyone good enough to tackle this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=478715
[07:48] <incandenzian> COOL!
[07:48] <gordonjcp> Overand: it's still a handy tool to have
[07:48] <incandenzian> Thanks!
[07:48] <Overand> telnet is a great diagnostic tool
[07:48] <Overand> figure out just waht garbage that SMTP server is spewing, etc
[07:48] <incandenzian> now how do I scroll through bitchx? I need to back up and copy those commands you guys told me to use.
[07:48] <gordonjcp> netcat is handier for scripting though
[07:48] <Overand> page up, page-down
[07:49] <Overand> gordonjcp: absolutely
[07:49] <incandenzian> awesome, thanks Overand :)
[07:49] <Overand> incandenzian: the more you use this stuff, the more you'll love it
[07:49] <stefg> !uuid | Senesence
[07:49] <ubotu> Senesence: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[07:49] <yondie> gordonjcp, the stuff that i like bout netcat is the piping
[07:49] <Overand> *nix operating systems, at the 'underbellt' end, aren't instantly graspable
[07:49] <Overand> but they're much more consistent and coherant than the windows counterparts
[07:49] <gordonjcp> bitchx? bah
[07:49] <Overand> when you get past the learning curve, it's pretty great
[07:49] <iTurtle> Is it possible to see a log of this chat room?
[07:49] <gordonjcp> irssi+screen ftw
[07:50] <Overand> gordonjcp: well, i mean, i'd prefer irssi
[07:50] <Overand> aye
[07:50] <Overand> i'm more referring to command-line apps in general
[07:50] <Overand> incandenzian: when you can, google "gnu screen"
[07:50] <gordonjcp> yes
[07:50] <crocodile> test
[07:50] <Overand> learn that app once you're past the basics
[07:50] <yondie> Overand, but still i rather have some minimalistic fluxbox just in case
[07:50] <bsdunix> how do i set my maloc userlimit? a wine application just froze up everything non-recoverable. i need to limit the wine user.
[07:50] <Senesence> stefg: All my entries in menu.lst are in
[07:50] <zaggynl> grmbl
[07:51] <Senesence> stefg: root=/dev/hda3 format
[07:51] <zaggynl> My usb case is having hiccups.
[07:51] <zaggynl> Getting resets
[07:51] <incandenzian> I will Overand, thank you.
[07:51] <yondie> zaggynl, is it hardware related or software related?
[07:51] <gordonjcp> incandenzian: once you get used to command-line tools, you won't go back to GUIs for a lot of things
[07:51] <stefg> Senesence: that's the prob, they need to be root=UUID=XXXX-XXXX-XXXX
[07:51] <yondie> except maybe pron
[07:51] <iTurtle> Is it possible to see yesterday's log of this chat room?
[07:51] <incandenzian> The command "sudo X --configure" didn't work.
[07:52] <Overand> has someone pointed incandenzian to 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure x...whatever?
[07:52] <gordonjcp> incandenzian: it's like the difference between trying to use the same knife to cut bread, spread plaster and unscrew screws, and having a whole big Draper toolchest to play with
[07:52] <Overand> xorg-xserver , etc
[07:52] <incandenzian> I got "Fatal server error: Unrecognized option: --configure
[07:52] <Senesence> stefg: Really!? Everyone here pretty much told me that being in UUID is actually the problem.
[07:52] <bsdunix> zaggynl:  all of our ubuntu boxes reset usb. i think it is dynamic delegation of the few resources available to devices
[07:52] <iTurtle> Or does it not exist?
[07:53] <incandenzian> gordonjcp: I believe you. I'm anxious to learn.
[07:53] <stefg> Senesence: plz read the link... there's no more hda on your system, if libata kicks in
[07:53] <Overand> oh - awstats is mostly working now
[07:53] <iTurtle> Maybe at the freenode website?
[07:53] <incandenzian> I was actually trying to rectify a problem, is how I got into this 'bout 15 min. ago.
[07:53] <iTurtle> Does anyone know?
[07:53] <yondie> iTurtle, no idea
[07:53] <iTurtle> yondie, ok.
[07:54] <Overand> i doubt ffreenode itself would keeo a log
[07:54] <Overand> but i'm sure there's someone logging #ubuntu
[07:54] <Overand> try google #ubuntu freenode log
[07:54] <bsdunix> i need to set ram use allocation limit on wine user. anybody got an idea what command i can man?
[07:54] <Overand> iTurtle: http://www.irclinux.org/freenode/ubuntu/
[07:55] <iTurtle> Overand: thank you! :)
[07:55] <Overand> sigh, google.
[07:55] <bsdunix> or i would have to always sudo nice wine app.exe?
[07:55] <yondie> bsdunix, wat apps are u running anyway on wine?
[07:56] <bsdunix> dvd decryptor and dvdshrink
[07:56] <navets> hey does anyone know if there is a way to get recordmydesktop to output avi files?
[07:56] <Overand> google dvd::rip
[07:56] <incandenzian> exit
[07:56] <Overand> bsdunix: there are some very good dvd-ripping/etc apps for *nix
[07:56] <bsdunix> dvd shrink re-autor froze it
[07:56] <yondie> navets, use xvidcap
[07:57] <navets> yondie: whats xvidcap?
[07:57] <Overand> bsdunix: http://www.exit1.org/dvdrip/
[07:57] <bsdunix> Overand i would love to use a gpl app. thanks!
[07:57] <Overand> i t may or may not do all you need, but you can probably stay out of wine for *some* of your tasks
[07:57] <yondie> navets, http://linux.byexamples.com/archives/231/create-screencast-using-xvidcap/
[07:57] <Overand> bsdunix: i've had limited expeirence with it,but i've herad it's good
[07:57] <rat> so if i am using kxmame, and i can get the gamepad's buttons to work but not the d-pad, what might be the problem?
[07:58] <yondie> modprobe analog?
[07:58] <rat> hrm
[07:58] <yondie> not sure
[07:58] <yondie> i think somewhere around the analog module
[07:58] <rat> i use jscalibrator to create the dev/input/js0 dealie and match that up
[07:58] <rat> it seems to work fine in the calibrator
[07:59] <Senesence> stefg: I can't boot in order to run "blkid" - Is this something I can do through the ash shell that I'm dropped into at boot - or do I have to do something with the live cd?
[08:00] <yondie> rat
[08:00] <stefg> Senesence: Live CD
[08:00] <bsdunix> Overand: my particular dvd was infested with a bunch of garbage code (css). i needed to rip only the video, i have no need of their extraneous garbage. do you know if this dvd::rip can handle such a task?
[08:00] <Chicory> Oh, I'm having issues with gbtsco, does anyone else have errors with a Plantronics 320?
[08:00] <yondie> rat: try symlink /dev/input/js0 to /dev/js0
[08:00] <mattwj2005> Good afternoon everyone :)
[08:00] <Chicory> It's identified correctly by the program, but it fails to connect every time.
[08:00] <Chicory> This is unusual, because it worked about a week ago.
[08:00] <rat> oh wait modprobe analog fixed it
[08:00] <rat> wow fixed the resolution too
[08:01] <rat> thanks a lot, pal
[08:01] <yondie> :p
[08:01] <yondie> no problem
[08:01] <Overand> bsdunix: i believe it can
[08:01] <bsdunix> Overand ...very nice. i thank you.
[08:01] <mattwj2005> anyone know how to get flashplayer to run on the amd64 version of ubuntu?

[08:27] <TheVault> wols: Ummm yeah I think
[08:27] <Q-FUNK> Overcast: I'm asking about the CD, not about how to configure X after the installation to the hard-disk has taken place.  i already know about dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg.
[08:28] <Senesence> stefg: It just got stuck on "Waiting for root file system..." I didn't get the "ok" for "Mounting root file system..." either.
[08:28] <wols> Bitmess: learn to read. there are no wildcards
[08:28] <TheVault> wols: I got beryl up and working. Got the whole 3D Cube working & things, so I would guess so
[08:28] <wols> TheVault: then ask the channel you got from ubotu
[08:28] <rat> q-funk i just chose 1680x1050 when i installed it
[08:28] <cman325> BloodyTux: take a look at this http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome
[08:28] <Bitmess> wols, how rude
[08:28] <Overcast> Q-FUNK: you cant, it will start in 800x600 every time unless there is an environment variable you can set at launch time before hitting enter to start the live d
[08:28] <Overcast> cd
[08:28] <TheVault> wols: I thought that was the right channel, thanks for the help :D
[08:28] <wols> Bitmess: are you an analphabet?
[08:29] <yondie> ..
[08:29] <iTurtle> does anyone know how to get a start-menu like applications menu ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=SeamlessVirtualizationWithThemingResized.png )
[08:29] <iTurtle> (02:20:16  EDT) like in that pic?
[08:29] <stefg> Senesence: then you probably made a mistake. check if the uuid and syntax for your for your 'root' entry in menu.lst is correct
[08:29] <teknobo1> when setting up users for ftp, is it best to create a home directory for them manually or use an existing directory?
[08:29] <yondie> Bitmess: just grab a vmware tarball from the vmware website
[08:29] <wols> yondie: he displayed the inability to ready correctly. could be legasthenic too I guess
[08:29] <iTurtle> Any idea?????
[08:29] <yondie> wols:... perhaps.. i`m getting tired repeating the same stuff
[08:30] <Bitmess> wols, I dont know what ur talking about
[08:30] <yondie> Bitmess: mind if i ssh to your box and fixed it?
[08:30] <wols> yondie: don't ever suggest this
[08:30] <iTurtle> \msg ubotu ssh
[08:30] <Overcast> !ssh
[08:30] <ubotu> SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[08:30] <yondie> wols: urm is something wrong with it?
[08:31] <wols> yondie: not from your end, but from his. he cannot ever be sure again you didn't install a rootkit
[08:31] <teknobo1> anybody?
[08:31] <wols> allowing strangers from irc on your machine is an invitation to get rooted.
[08:31] <teknobo1> lol
[08:31] <Senesence> stefg: I used copy-paste to change it to root=UUID="allthatstuff" so I think I did that right.
[08:31] <TheVault> Is the #Beryl channel always so dead? Theres like nobody in there chatting
[08:32] <Q-FUNK> Overcast: and that environment variable would be?
[08:32] <yondie> wols: craps just when i`m bout to get over his dirty collection lol.
[08:32] <iTurtle> TheVault: every now and then someone pops up ;)
[08:32] <bruenig> beryl is pretty straight forward, what would they be talking about
[08:32] <bruenig> unless they are devs
[08:32] <yondie> wols: well kidding .. i`m not the kinda guy who actualy fond of intrusing normal user pcs
[08:32] <TheVault> iTurtle: Yeah, well I hope its soon cause I got a question about the whole Beryl Widget Plugin thing I was describing :P
[08:32] <iTurtle> !google | TheVault
[08:32] <Q-FUNK> wols: Matrox MGA G100.  easily capable of up to 1024x768 and more.
[08:32] <ubotu> TheVault: Google is a very popular search engine: http://www.google.com  -  Google also has a Linux-specific search engine: http://google.com/linux
[08:32] <mrstocks> uhmmm i don't get 1014ko/sec with the ubuntu mirrors
[08:33] <edvan> pessoal ta aparecendo isso quando tento entrar no ubuntu ou no windows xp:   Error 29: Disk write error  , alguem pode me ajudar?
[08:33] <Bitmess> wols, I can't believe you asked if I'm an analphabet. I'll never come back to #ubuntu again! You can kiss my shitty ass! Knoppix works better anyway.
[08:33] <TheVault> iTurtle: Google is not bringing up anything
[08:33] <teknobo1> im not farmiliar enough with linux to know offhand what should and shouldnt be accessible to ftp users
[08:33] <iTurtle> TheVault: have you tried google linux ( http://www.google.com/linux) ;)
[08:33] <yondie> teknobo1: what should be accessable .. is wat u want them to access
[08:33] <TheVault> iTurtle: Never heard of that, may give a try
[08:34] <yondie> teknobo
[08:34] <yondie> it`s just a matter of chmod
[08:34] <teknobo1> that i already know and all i want them to be able to access is their own user folder to which uploading web files is necessary to be displayed via the server
[08:35] <wols> teknobo1: are they system users?
[08:35] <blairellis> wols: you still there?
[08:35] <Javid> Is there a way to downgrade firefox from the version that comes with ubuntu? x.x
[08:35] <mezziah> hi
[08:35] <Evilc> can anyone tell me why the nvidia-settings thing shows available resolutions as "auto"?
[08:35] <teknobo1> they are end users using the server to host their sites
[08:35] <mezziah> simple question: is there a file manager who works/looks like total commander on windows?
[08:35] <mezziah> who? which :>
[08:35] <iTurtle> !Google | mezziah
[08:35] <ubotu> mezziah: Google is a very popular search engine: http://www.google.com  -  Google also has a Linux-specific search engine: http://google.com/linux
[08:36] <yondie> mezziah, nautilus
[08:36] <yondie> or gentoo
[08:36] <mezziah> yondie: hmm ok i'll try gentoo out
[08:36] <ray_> any one know how to add w32codec if get this err
[08:36] <mezziah> iTurtle: i know google and i know freshmeat but i just wanted a suggestion
[08:36] <ray_> Package w32codecs has no installation candidate
[08:36] <ray_> what i do
[08:37] <iTurtle> mezziah: http://www.google.com/linux
[08:37] <Senesence> stefg: I'm going to have to reainstall it entirelly, won't I...
[08:37] <teknobo1> like is /home/*username* a good place
[08:37] <mezziah> iTurtle: i already said, i know huge archives where i can find file managers, but i needed a recommendation, thanks anyways for your help
[08:37] <iTurtle> teknobo1: your home folder can be represented by ~
[08:37] <iTurtle> mezziah: sorry :(
[08:38] <Evilc> can anyone tell me why the nvidia-settings thing shows available resolutions as "auto"?
[08:38] <teknobo1> but when i added a user and they login, it automatically grands them access to /
[08:39] <teknobo1> and i changed the ftp server to lock users in their home directory
[08:39] <iTurtle> !server | teknobo1
[08:39] <ubotu> teknobo1: 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
[08:40] <teknobo1> already installed server edition
[08:40] <iTurtle> teknobo1: go to #ubuntu-server for server help - this is for desktop version, I believe ;)
[08:40] <teknobo1> lol alrighty
[08:40] <chabayo> ...hi all.
[08:40] <chabayo> I get the tip that grub sometimes will fail on installing on XFS-Filesystems on my installation process. The dialog considerating this has two possibilities (i have german location): "back" and "continue" - continue leads back to take change, "back" functions like, i would say, "ignore"; that's wrong i think.
[08:41] <Javid> Is there a way to downgrade firefox from the version that comes with ubuntu? 2.0.x makes me want to stab a hobo.
[08:41] <Evilc> can anyone tell me why the nvidia-settings thing shows available resolutions as "auto"?
[08:42] <mattwj2005> yeah I think I am going back down to the 32 bit version of ubuntu :(
[08:42] <bastid_raZor> Javid: upgrade to the newest version.. works better than 2.0
[08:42] <mattwj2005> 64 bit still isn't there
[08:42] <Javid> I want a version that does not make 90% of my extensions shit themselves in terror. 1.5.0.12 works.
[08:42] <mattwj2005> it is close though :)
[08:42] <yondie> dat`s something debian lack off
[08:42] <mezziah> is there a tool which converts a cue/bin to iso?
[08:43] <fbolduc> Question: How do I stop NetworkManager gracefully (ie: not by killall) ?
[08:43] <yondie> 64 bit rpm based is more 32-bit downware compatible rather then 64 bit deb base
[08:44] <mrynit> how good is ubuntu at installing drivers for japanese keyboards?
[08:44] <yondie> mrynit, as good as any linux distro

[08:47] <wastro> yondie: do you use a different desktop search engine?
[08:47] <raf256> wols: newer ubuntu 6.06 kernels have dev loop?
[08:47] <yondie> wastro: slocate and locate  works fine for me
[08:47] <Gnea> raf256: loop support should already be there
[08:47] <wols> Javid: unlikely that feisty has this version
[08:48] <Gnea> raf256: you need to execute losetup correctly
[08:48] <raf256> Gnea: it isnt in 2.6.15 (6.06)
[08:48] <wols> raf256: all should have support for it
[08:48] <wastro> it would nice to be organized by executable binaries though
[08:48] <Abhi123> which is the installer ubuntu use??
[08:48] <raf256> Gnea: I executed it the same way that on debian:
[08:48] <ray_> this is err i get Could not save the file /usr/lib/realplay-10.0.8/realplay.\
[08:48] <Gnea> raf256: locate loop.ko
[08:48] <madman91> can someone please walk me through using the id3lib library in a C program
[08:48] <ray_> check to see has permitoin to save it how i fix this
[08:48] <Abhi123> i mean Ubuntu installer name

[08:49] <yondie> ray_: ls -la check wat`s the permission
[08:49] <madman91> wastro: no thanks
[08:49] <ray_> how do i yaondie
[08:49] <Gnea> raf256: -C and -S are valid options?
[08:49] <yondie> ray_, wat are u editing in the first place?
[08:49] <ray_> real
[08:50] <raf256> Gnea yes
[08:50] <yondie> ...
[08:50] <ray_> like the site says to
[08:50] <Gnea> raf256: i don't see them...
[08:50] <sparkling> hi all
[08:50] <ray_> say root
[08:50] <raf256> Gnea its part of loopaes's losetup
[08:50] <yondie> ray_, u familliar yet with yer terminal?
[08:50] <Gnea> raf256: why would you use AES?
[08:50] <ray_> yondie it says owner root
[08:50] <yondie> well
[08:50] <raf256> Gnea to encrypt?
[08:50] <sparkling> do you have any wiki or howto to sharing dirs from linux to OSX? with the normal procedure (system, admin, sharing dir) didn't work...
[08:51] <ray_> yondie not yet can you walk me throw it
[08:51] <Gnea> raf256: yes, but WHY?
[08:51] <ray_> i need to do this
[08:51] <freez> do i have to set the linux partition active to boot from grub loader ?
[08:51] <yondie> ray_, u can change the  permission by chmod a+x -R the folder name
[08:51] <raf256> Gnea: so that thief stelin my laptop wouldnt get my company files?
[08:51] <ray_> \then edit the startup script (/usr/lib/realplay-10.0.8/realplay) and changed line 73 from
[08:51] <ray_> $REALPLAYBIN $@
[08:51] <Senesence> Should /boot/grub/device.map contain more than just (hd0) /dev/hda?
[08:51] <ray_> to
[08:51] <ray_> aoss $REALPLAYBIN $@
[08:51] <Gnea> raf256: heh, you do know that AES is vulnerable, right?
[08:51] <raf256> Gnea: is it?
[08:51] <yondie> ray_, use pastebin
[08:51] <wols> Gnea: vulnerable how?
[08:51] <Gnea> wow.... omg
[08:51] <yondie> it` getting messier here
[08:51] <raf256> Gnea: well ok, a modern security is ok. I dont suspect CIA to steal it or something
[08:52] <ray_> ok what i do can you walk me throw still new
[08:52] <Evilc> can anyone tell me why the nvidia-settings thing shows available resolutions as "auto"? please >_<
[08:52] <yondie> Gnea, vulnerable in wat term?
[08:52] <Gnea> yeah, sec
[08:52] <ray_> yondie i needs help doing that
[08:52] <raf256> is it not recoverable with less then 50.000 usd then I consider it safe enought
[08:52] <ray_> im still newbe to ubuntu
[08:52] <wols> !paste | ray_
[08:52] <ubotu> ray_: 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)
[08:52] <yondie> ray_, it`s got nothing to do with ubuntu at all
[08:52] <raf256> $ locate loop.ko         /lib/modules/2.6.15-26-386/kernel/drivers/block/cloop.ko   and /cryptoloop.ko   and  loop.ko
[08:53] <freez> i mean when i turn the linux partition active instead of c: should then grub appears in the start up ?
[08:53] <yondie> ray_, simply some gnu/utils command \
[08:53] <ray_> any one eles
[08:53] <ray_> ok yondie im in it what i do next
[08:53] <raf256> Gnea is right, loopaes (current version?) doent encrypt strongly enought (not enought padding/salhing)  still I consider it safe enought
[08:53] <Gnea> raf256: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/24150/info
[08:54] <Senesence> Can anyone do a "cat /boot/grub/device.map" on their machine and tell me what's there? I would appreciate it.
[08:54] <ray_> then i get >
[08:54] <Gnea> raf256: i wouldn't use it without at LEAST 2.6.21, if at all
[08:54] <Javid> anybody? I tried apt-get install firefox=1.5.0.12 but it couldn't find it.
[08:54] <raf256> Gnea: well ok I will think of it, thanks
[08:54] <yondie> ray_, well the simple step is
[08:54] <Evilc> hello????
[08:54] <yondie> ray_, open yer terminal cd into the directory
[08:54] <ray_> yondie yes
[08:54] <raf256> Gnea: still, how to use it for now? (better then nothing)
[08:54] <mez|bbl> Javid: try 'sudo apt-get install mozilla-firefox' in order to install ffox
[08:54] <yondie> ray_, sudo chmod a+w thefilenamethatuwantoedit
[08:55] <Gnea> raf256: lsmod | grep aes  <-- any results?
[08:56] <mrynit> "deb http://archive.ubuntulinux.jp/ubuntu-ja edgy/" i am on feisty is that a problem?
[08:56] <raf256> Gnea: this page doesnt say WHAT actually is the bug
[08:56] <Gnea> Senesence: why?
[08:56] <Javid> mez|bbl: I have firefox, but I want an older version that I have
[08:56] <raf256> Gnea: thank, modprobe cryptoloop  did it
[08:56] <Gnea> raf256: it was disclosed by the vendor
[08:56] <Senesence> Gnea: Can't boot - can't find reason why. Here
[08:56] <raf256> Gnea: how to have cryptoloop module loaded on start automaticly?
[08:56] <Senesence> Gnea: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=478715
[08:56] <Gnea> Senesence: device.map is going to vary from system to system
[08:57] <raf256> Gnea: have a link to detailed explanation of the bug?
[08:57] <Gnea> raf256: working on it
[08:57] <raf256> thx
[08:57] <Senesence> Gnea: I'm just trying to figure out if i should have something in there like (hd0,2) /dev/hda3
[08:57] <mez|bbl> Javid: then you might download a matching firefox package from their ftp server
[08:58] <Gnea> raf256: http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/121/397496
[08:58] <mez|bbl> Javid: i assume you want to download 1.5.0.12?
[08:58] <Javid> yes
[08:58] <mez|bbl> wait a moment please

[08:59] <Gnea> Senesence: more like: (hd0) /dev/hda
[08:59] <raf256> they should combine deb+ubuntu to have advanced yet user friendly and uptodate distro
[08:59] <yondie> unikon, why bother microsoft at all?
[09:00] <Senesence> Gnea: That's what I have.
[09:00] <Gnea> Senesence: grub can figure out what the partition table is from there
[09:00] <Javid> I know I can unzip it or whatever, but not much else
[09:00] <lotfi> hello
[09:00] <yondie> raf256, ubuntu contains most of the unstable package while debian tend to utilize only stable
[09:00] <Gnea> Senesence: what exactly is the problem? can you not boot winxp?
[09:00] <unikon> yondie msl  was selling ubuntu on the page i listed
[09:00] <Senesence> ompaul: How? I mean it's not a grub problem. I even tried using the Super grub disk to fix it all - no luck.
[09:00] <unikon> ms was*
[09:00] <Gnea> Senesence: btw, still reading
[09:00] <mezziah> Javid: simply try it with your fav unzip program and if it doesn't work you can ask us/me for other solutions

[09:02] <erUSUL> StatusXxX: no
[09:03] <StatusXxX> Is it easy to install one?
[09:03] <ray_> mezziah that what i need to do
[09:03] <yondie> ray_, another method
[09:03] <ray_> how do
[09:03] <yondie> ray_, lunch a terminal
[09:03] <Javid> mezziah: Ihave no idea what to do with this thing once I unzip it. I tried to run it and it just opens the firefox I have.
[09:03] <ray_> i did in new and lost
[09:03] <iTurtle> How can I put a trash icon on the desktop?
[09:03] <yondie> ray_, taip  gksudo /usr/lib/realplay-10.0.8/realplay
[09:03] <yondie> ray_, or sudo gedit /usr/lib/realplay-10.0.8/realplay
[09:04] <yondie> and edit like hell
[09:04] <iTurtle> How can I put a trash icon on the desktop?
[09:04] <mezziah> Javid: yes, sure. in order to run the old version, go to the directory where you unzipped firefox to and run ./mozilla-firefox or delete the newer version
[09:04] <iTurtle> !language | yondie
[09:04] <ubotu> yondie: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:04] <yondie> owh sorry
[09:04] <yondie> guess when a lil bit overboard
[09:04] <Javid> I tried apt-get remove firefox but something like four bazillion things are dependent on it and I didn'twant to kill my system
[09:04] <iTurtle> yondie:it's ok
[09:04] <ompaul> Senesence, I have no idea what happened to you there, however I would be looking at using the live cd to move all data to a backup and then I would be looking at doing something like a full format of the disk as I would no longer trust those partitions, if you have two machines then a second linux box and scp your stuff across from one to the other - or to DVD if you have a 2 optical disks
[09:04] <blairellis> anyone here use virtual box with Ubuntu?
[09:05] <iTurtle> Javid: try using synaptic
[09:05] <iTurtle> Javid: GUI not CLI
[09:05] <statux> Is it easier to install GUI to server edition than instal server to normal ubuntu?
[09:05] <mezziah> Javid: usually it shouldn't have any dependencies.. but anyway, you still can try out my first idea
[09:05] <Javid> ok
[09:05] <iTurtle> !server | statusx
[09:05] <ubotu> statusx: 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
[09:05] <iTurtle> How can I put a trash icon on the desktop?
[09:05] <||drake||> where do i go to ask questions about sound?
[09:06] <iTurtle> ||drake|| : here
[09:06] <||drake||> oh, okay
[09:06] <kritzstapf> do i have to use the unstable repo to use java6?
[09:06] <erUSUL> !sound | ||drake||
[09:06] <ubotu> ||drake||: 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
[09:06] <iTurtle> How can I put a trash icon on the desktop? Does anyone know?
[09:06] <mezziah> man, if only sound would work on my vmachine
[09:06] <mezziah> this kinda annoys me
[09:06] <iTurtle> Hi. I need help.
[09:06] <mobutu> I bet you do
[09:06] <Senesence> ompaul: Yea, I already got my stuff out - So the only way to get out of this is to reinstall completelly? I might as well get a brand new Feisty CD this time around.
[09:06] <Javid> The following packages will be REMOVED:
[09:06] <Javid>   firefox firefox-gnome-support gnome-user-guide ubuntu-desktop ubuntu-docs
[09:06] <Javid>   yelp
[09:07] <Gnea> Senesence: do you have any other hard drives installed?
[09:07] <mobutu> iTurtle: run 'gconf-editor'
[09:07] <Senesence> Gnea: No, one hard drive, four partitions.
[09:07] <iTurtle> mobutu: ok.
[09:07] <mezziah> Javid: um.. it doesn't delete the entire ubuntu-desktop, only the metapackage, so it should me save to remove
[09:07] <ompaul> iTurtle, ln -s .Trash Desktop/.Trash ( and I suggest you put up with it in the bottom corner of the screen )
[09:07] <mobutu>  apps - > nautilus - > desktop
[09:07] <Javid> ok x.x
[09:07] <mezziah> Javid: be*
[09:07] <mobutu> iTurtle: my way is cooler than ompaul's
[09:08] <iTurtle> mobutu: very true (haha) :) thanks!
[09:08] <mobutu> iTurtle: my way gives you a little Trash icon
[09:08] <iTurtle> mobutu: what does his do?
[09:08] <mezziah> Javid: if it doesn't appear to be safe to you, just run the older version from command line
[09:08] <mrynit> "deb http://archive.ubuntulinux.jp/ubuntu-ja edgy/" how can i test that this works for feisty??
[09:08] <Rstukken> I wanted to open a a zip file, then I got a box saying something that I had to be sure that it was from myself or someone I know. It is from someone I know, It also said it was a plane text document (I know it is a .doc actually), and that I had to change the extensions or something. So with property's I did but it then I got an empty document as I opent it. so I changed back to zip. Now I get a box that asks me if I want to display it or Ru
[09:08] <Gnea> Senesence: you can boot the livecd and access hda3 right?
[09:08] <mobutu> iTurtle: his probably just makes a symlink to your desktop and it won't be very interesting
[09:08] <Javid> already did it
[09:08] <Senesence> Gnea: Right.
[09:09] <mezziah> it works then, right?
[09:09] <Flannel> kritzstapf: Ubuntu doesn't have an 'unstable' repository.  But java6 is in the normal one anyway.
[09:09] <Yolan> hi
[09:09] <ompaul> mobutu, but ehh there is no nautilus on apps
[09:10] <Rstukken> Also the Icon is changed since I changed the extension for a minute to doc and then back to zip
[09:10] <hilary> Hi =)
[09:10] <kritzstapf> Flannel: wrong channel, im also in #debian, sorry ;D

[09:12] <||drake||> alright, the !sound links didnt work
[09:12] <sidlet> Has anybody here used Easy Ubuntu on 7.04?
[09:12] <roho> !xdmcp
[09:12] <ubotu> xdmcp is the X Display Manger Control Protocol -- look at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/XDMCP-HOWTO/ to find out how to configure it
[09:12] <paritosh> hi. my resolv.conf keeps automatically being replaced by "NetworkManager". I need to stay it at a server I set it to. Is there any way to do so?
[09:12] <Flannel> LeChacal: Does disabling firestarter fix it?
[09:12] <blairellis> Hello ya'll, I still can't figure out how to get my gnome applets sensor for the CPU temp to work. Anyone want to help me out?
[09:13] <||drake||> my sound works randomly... sometimes when i boot up it works, other times it does not. i've yet to find a pattern to what makes it work and what doesnt
[09:13] <eni> thanks mezziah
[09:13] <mobutu> blairellis: maybe you have to make the gnome applets sensor program setuid
[09:13] <eni> lets hope it works.. otherwise ill just continue the tuto.
[09:13] <hilary> Can someone help me =(
[09:13] <eni> mezziah, do i have to kill X to get the new drivers working ?! or should i compleltely restart ?
[09:13] <eni> mezziah|NA, ^^
[09:13] <mobutu> just ask a question
[09:13] <LeChacal> Flannel: no disabling firestart dosn't fix it
[09:14] <paritosh> anybody? resolv.conf..network manager..
[09:14] <Hexxeh|Linux> Hey guys
[09:14] <mobutu> paritosh: are you getting your ip address through a DHCP server? wireless? what are you doing
[09:14] <Hexxeh|Linux> I'm getting this error, any ideas: libGL error: drmMap of framebuffer failed
[09:14] <blairellis> mobutu: What do you mean by that?
[09:14] <paritosh> mobutu: yes. dhcp
[09:15] <LeChacal> Flannel: the one timed that i tried that didn't fix anything but since the problem is hard to reproduce at while i have to wait to try it again
[09:15] <Cromag> !ask
[09:15] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:15] <mobutu> blairellis: what is the path of the filename of the gnome temperature sensor program ?
[09:15] <mobutu> paritosh: when you get your ip address from a DHCP server, your settings in /etc/resolv.conf get set by whatever info you got from the DHCP server
[09:16] <paritosh> mobutu: is there a way i can override the dns provided by the dhcp server. i need to get this opendns thing right. my company's dns is having a problem atm.
[09:16] <blairellis> mobutu: Im new to linux and Im still trying to decypher the file system. Im having to unlearn the C:\ drive ways ;)
[09:16] <Luziphir> I need to copy a couple of downloaded packages from the main repository onto a usb flash disk, can anyone give me some pointers on how to do this?
[09:16] <Javid> mezziah|NA: I got it installed but now I have no idea how to run it x.x
[09:16] <hilary> All of my messengers work so I know I have an internet connection, but when I try to search for a page on Mozilla Firefox and Konquerer web browsers, it hangs and eventually gives me the error that "the server has timed out". This happens every time. Someone gave me proxy settings to input and it worked for about 8 hours but the first problem has occured again. Can anyone help? =(
[09:16] <Hexxeh|Linux> Anyone?
[09:17] <Hexxeh|Linux> I really wanna use this app.
[09:17] <paritosh> Luziphir: have you downloaded the packages already?
[09:17] <mobutu> paritosh: I don't know what opendns is.  if you stop using dhcp you can set your nameserver in /etc/resolv.conf to whatever you want.  do you know how to manually configure your ip address ?
[09:17] <iMayKnow> Luziphir, you should just be able to plug in the flash drive and then drag and drop them into it if you have them downloaded already
[09:17] <blairellis> any idea on where I might find it?
[09:17] <iMayKnow> or on the command line use the cp command
[09:17] <Luziphir> paritosh: yes, I just don't know where they're cached  :P
[09:17] <paritosh> mobutu: yes
[09:17] <T-SubWoof> Ok I reinstall ubuntu.
[09:17] <paritosh> Luziphir: /var/cache
[09:18] <T-SubWoof> Does anyone know how to install Ati driver in the right way?
[09:18] <Luziphir> paritosh: thanks a lot!
[09:18] <paritosh> Luziphir: np
[09:18] <mobutu> blairellis: I don't know the name of the gnome applet temperature program, but you could try 'sudo chmod +s name-of-program' . also you might be out of luck, your motherboard + your kernel might not support the temperature detection stuff
[09:18] <paritosh> hilary: is your dns working?
[09:18] <Flannel> !ati | T-SubWoof
[09:18] <ubotu> T-SubWoof: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:18] <dredhammer> Hexxeh|Linux all your downloaded and installed apps have their deb packages in /var/cache/apt/archives
[09:19] <hilary> Paritosh: yes
[09:19] <hilary> someone on another channel suggested something about blacklisting ipv6 =S
[09:19] <mobutu> paritosh: if you use DHCP, it's going to write over your resolve.conf settings.   there's nothing stopping you from editing resolv.conf after you get a ip address from dhcp though.
[09:19] <hilary> but I didnt quite understand, I'm new to linux
[09:19] <paritosh> mobutu: ok thanks mobutu
[09:20] <Senesence> OMG!!!!!! It just started working again.....all I did was restart through the live cd!!!!!
[09:20] <T-SubWoof> Is that link stay updated?
[09:20] <Flannel> T-SubWoof: yes
[09:20] <paritosh> hilary: hmm. me too. you tried out firefox and konqueror right?
[09:20] <||drake||> alright, who is willing to help me with sound?
[09:20] <hilary> yeah I tried both of them =(
[09:20] <hilary> and they both give me the same problem, saying something about Port 80 and the server timing out
[09:21] <paritosh> hilary: what was the proxy thing you said?
[09:21] <mrynit> "deb http://archive.ubuntulinux.jp/ubuntu-ja edgy/" how can i test that this works for feisty??
[09:21] <Gnea> Senesence: have you tried using the livecd as a rescue disk? that is, booting the cd but passing root=/dev/hda3 onto it?
[09:22] <hilary> someone told me to enter "webcache.blueyonder.co.uk" into the HTTP proxy on mozilla, and enter PORT 8080
[09:22] <hilary> and that made it work for about 8 hours
[09:22] <paritosh> oh
[09:22] <reed026> !vmware
[09:22] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[09:22] <paritosh> hilary: ill try to check it out
[09:22] <hilary> thank you :)
[09:23] <bruenig|laptop> can anyone send me cmd.exe if you have it, perhaps any dual booters on here
[09:23] <Gnea> hilary: can you pint yahoo.com from a terminal?
[09:23] <Senesence> Gnea: No, but for some reason when I restarted from the live cd - then taken it out and continued to try a regular boot again - IT WORKED. Kinda sucks that I don't know what happend, but hey, solved is solved ;)
[09:23] <Gnea> hilary: s/pint/ping/g
[09:23] <hilary> ill try
[09:24] <Gnea> Senesence: oh yeah? cool! now reboot to windows, then back to linux and see if it still works.

[09:24] <T-SubWoof> 7.04 (Feisty) right?
[09:24] <Senesence> Gnea: Ohh, boy I'm afraid of the results.
[09:24] <Gnea> hilary: no, just tell me if you get a valid response or if it times out/doesn't resolve
[09:25] <Gnea> Senesence: better to find out now and remove all doubt ;)

[09:32] <kane77> palomer, not as far as I know.. damn I'm too slow :)
[09:32] <Flannel> of course there is.  Don't besilly.  This is linux, afterall.
[09:33] <Flannel> The problem becomes choosing one of the dozens.
[09:33] <Gnea> paritosh: what are you trying to accomplish?
[09:33] <T-SubWoof> Ok which one do I need? Linux x86 or Linux x86_64?
[09:33] <T-SubWoof> ATI
[09:33] <Flannel> T-SubWoof: are you running 32 or 64bit?
[09:33] <palomer> does x86_64 work flawlessly?
[09:33] <palomer> like, do ops need to be recompiled?
[09:33] <T-SubWoof> 32
[09:34] <Flannel> palomer: except for proprietary things like flash.  yes.
[09:34] <palomer> apps
[09:34] <Flannel> T-SubWoof: then use the linux x86 one.
[09:34] <palomer> but I use flash!
[09:34] <T-SubWoof> Ok
[09:34] <kane77> T-SubWoof, then x86
[09:34] <kane77> palomer, what for?
[09:34] <paritosh> Gnea: I want to setup my modem to work in bridged mode in archlinux
[09:34] <palomer> some webpages use flash
[09:34] <Flannel> palomer: check out sox (it's in universe)
[09:35] <TheCougar> ubuntu needs an upgrade adviser like windows vista has that you can run on your xp machine:)
[09:35] <kane77> palomer, there is nspluginwrapper... and it works fine...
[09:35] <mike_> Has anyone experianced problems with Byrl just destroying X?
[09:35] <Gnea> paritosh: this explains it very clearly: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Ethernet-Bridge-netfilter-HOWTO.html
[09:35] <paritosh> Gnea: thank you :)
[09:35] <Flannel> palomer: Yes, well, go complain to adobe to release it for 64 bit.  Otherwise you've gotta jump through some hoops to get it to work.
[09:35] <palomer> but is x86_64 any faster?
[09:35] <palomer> I'm using x86
[09:35] <mike_> Anyone?
[09:35] <PMantis> When I login, gnome-power-manager starts, giving me info about power, battert, etc. What starts at login that automounts USB storage on insertion?
[09:36] <boudiccas> hi lissa
[09:36] <lissa_> Hi Shaza
[09:36] <kane77> palomer, I believe it is, but I can't really measure that, because I never used 32-bit version on this computer...
[09:36] <Gnea> PMantis: it's usually a combination of udev and dbus

[09:40] <luisbg> if I wanted to share files between mac os x and ubuntu... which filesystem should I use for that partition?
[09:40] <mike_> anyone?
[09:41] <T-SubWoof> Look like it is downloading files.
[09:41] <Gnea> mike_: #gnome
[09:41] <T-SubWoof> I guest I done this part right. Now I need to move on.
[09:42] <Gnea> luisbg: any - you'd want to setup samba on the ubuntu side so that macosx can browse it as a network drive
[09:42] <Gonzalo> espaol
[09:43] <ed1t> why is there no new version of thunderbird in the repository?
[09:43] <luisbg> Gnea, I mean in the same computer

[09:46] <T-SubWoof> sudo m-a build,install fglrx-kernel <- Build of the package fglrx-kernel-src failed!
[09:46] <aoliax> anyone use luelinks pm me
[09:47] <Gnea> luisbg: in a terminal, what is the result of df -Th? please use the pastebin...
[09:47] <Gnea> !pastebin | luisbg
[09:47] <ubotu> luisbg: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:47] <supremesonic> anyone have a idea about when a new kernel is made available for ubuntu?
[09:47] <luisbg> Gnea, empty
[09:48] <T-SubWoof> What I do?
[09:48] <T-SubWoof> This is very confusing.
[09:48] <uptownben> hi all, where can I download the alterate ISo image?
[09:48] <Flannel> supremesonic: What do you mean by 'new kernel'
[09:48] <T-SubWoof> Kill it and then go back onto the screen?
[09:48] <uptownben> *alternate
[09:49] <Flannel> uptownben: releases.ubuntu.com (or any of the other mirrors).  It's also available from a checkbox on the ubuntu.com download form thing.
[09:49] <T-SubWoof> Is it looking for this? fglrx-kernel-source_8.37.6-1_i386.deb
[09:49] <supremesonic> Flannel, a new kernel version. I've read on kernel.org that in one of the newest version my card reader is supported
[09:50] <uptownben> Flannel: I was looking for that checkbox, but all I see is ubuntu and LTS
[09:50] <RichW> Flannel: Wow your busy here.. i seen you here before
[09:50] <Flannel> uptownben: You mean 7.04 and 6.06, Both of those are available in alternate CD form.  Alternate CD is simply a different installation method.
[09:51] <Saubazi> I am not able to mount a jfs partition from my second HD
[09:51] <Flannel> supremesonic: Each release of ubuntu has only one kernel version (2.6.20 is feisty, for instance), bugfixes and other security updates go into this (and you get -XX versions).  You're looking for a new kernel version (2.6.XX) which only happens when Ubuntu releases a new version (gutsy, to be released in october, has 2.6.22)
[09:52] <uptownben> Ah..I see it..
[09:52] <T-SubWoof> This is hard.
[09:53] <T-SubWoof> I don't think this will work.
[09:53] <supremesonic> Flannel, okay :( a bit sad so long but I manage. thanks :)
[09:53] <bsdunix> my default movie player is totem. i need to switch it to mplayer. is removal of totem best way to do this?
[09:53] <T-SubWoof> find: /usr/src/modules: No such file or directory <- Something is missing.
[09:54] <taa> hello
[09:54] <taa> i've just installed ubuntu on my desktop and was looking arround to see if my materials are correctly installed
[09:54] <CptAJ[ve] > Alright, so I just installed feisty. I running the auto-update but I'm getting mindnumbingly slow speeds. I'm talking less than 1kb/s at times here. I know for certain its not my connection as it worked fine just now in windows and I used to get over 100kb/s in previous installations of ubuntu when getting updates or installing new software. What could be causing this?
[09:55] <taa> i know that ubuntu commes with radeon open source drivers
[09:55] <ffm> CptAJ[ve] , What mirror are you using?
[09:55] <T-SubWoof> Install it onto another hard drive. Can't put another OS on a same drive.
[09:55] <bsdunix> CptAJ[ve]  just man ifconfig
[09:55] <taa> when i run glxgears, it takes between 20 and 99% of my cpu, this means that 3d acceleration isnt working right ?
[09:55] <T-SubWoof> Other wise you get IE problem.
[09:55] <ffm> T-SubWoof, What are you talking about?
[09:56] <T-SubWoof> That happen to me before.
[09:56] <CptAJ[ve] > ffm: I dont know what mirror I'm using, how do I check?
[09:56] <Gnea> luisbg: i'm pretty sure it'll work with ext2, but vfat for sure, maybe even hfs
[09:56] <bsdunix> taa i think if glxgears ran it is good
[09:56] <eldad> ?

[09:57] <bsdunix> my default movie player is totem. i need to switch it to mplayer. is removal of totem best way to do this?
[09:57] <CptAJ[ve] > ffm: on it, hold on
[09:57] <taa> bsdunix it's not ok when it took 90% of the cpu when i've just glxgears running, it means that the display is made by my cpu not by the gpu

[09:57] <T-SubWoof> XP normal speed. Vista dropping IE speed.
[09:58] <ffm> T-SubWoof, Why are you talking about M$ in an ubuntu support channel?
[09:58] <cman325> I'm offended
[09:58] <BlueLaguna> Is there anyway to redirect sound output to a file?
[09:58] <BlueLaguna> Basically, I want to record what's currently being played
[09:58] <T-SubWoof> Because I can't install ATI when there are things missing.
[09:58] <cman325> like what you hear is what you get?
[09:58] <T-SubWoof> The faq is outdated
[10:00] <BlueLaguna> cman325: Yeah
[10:00] <T-SubWoof> sudo m-a build,install fglrx-kernel will not work because ubuntu missing some files.
[10:00] <ffm> T-SubWoof, What is your problem?
[10:00] <cman325> BlueLaguna: try Skype-Rec  allows you to record on a single Linux machine
[10:00] <BlueLaguna> cman325: thanks
[10:00] <T-SubWoof> find: /usr/src/modules: No such file or directory <- Something is missing.
[10:01] <cman325> BlueLaguna: its sorta like total recorder for windows

[10:03] <T-SubWoof> Heh
[10:04] <ffm> ZP, yes
[10:04] <Andeh> Hi, how do i copy my existing plugins into SwiftFox from Firefox?
[10:04] <cman325> ffm:  Wow I didnt even think about that..  That makes me all warm and fuzzy
[10:04] <Andeh> I tried just copying to the plugins dir but that didnt change anything
[10:05] <ffm> cman325, About what?
[10:05] <ffm> !alternate > ZP (see pm from ubotu)
[10:05] <Flannel> ZP: you mean ubiquity (was renamed before dapper was released), and I don't believe so.
[10:05] <T-SubWoof> I will try this again and see it will fix that. sudo m-a prepare,update
[10:05] <cman325> ffm: using VNC off a livecd to finish installing a ubuntu installation remotely.
[10:06] <CptAJ[ve] > nothing, still getting stupid download speeds. did the "choose best server" thing on the mirror selection and I'm getting the same speed. I also tried a couple of mirrors that have usually worked fine for me... maybe its a configuration issue?
[10:06] <Andeh> I'm using SwiftFox now, and I can't install any plugins, can i just copy over my mozilla plugins?
[10:06] <Flannel> ZP: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation From there (which has lots of methods) see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/OverSSH
[10:06] <ffm> Andeh, What is swiftfox?
[10:06] <Andeh> !swiftfox
[10:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about swiftfox - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:06] <nitrogoldfish> andeh: can you install swiftfox plugins using automatix?
[10:06] <T-SubWoof> Look like kernel isn't install or something
[10:06] <Andeh> nitrogolfish: No.
[10:06] <Flannel> !automatix | nitrogoldfish
[10:06] <ubotu> nitrogoldfish: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[10:06] <Andeh> nitrogoldfish: Don't think so
[10:07] <ZP> Flannel, ffm... Thank you a lot, I will look at that link
[10:07] <Andeh> WHT
[10:07] <ffm> ZP, np
[10:07] <Andeh> Automatix cant be THAT bad
[10:07] <Flannel> Andeh: it is.
[10:07] <nitrogoldfish> i've never had a problem with it
[10:07] <ffm> Andeh, yes it can.
[10:07] <Flannel> !worksforme
[10:07] <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.
[10:07] <`eric-> !apache
[10:07] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[10:07] <Andeh> Flannel: Then why did everyone else before you guys reccomend using it? I installed google earth, and lots of other things with it
[10:07] <Flannel> nitrogoldfish: you've dodged the bullet.  At least until you try and upgrade.
[10:08] <nitrogoldfish> thanks for the warning
[10:08] <Flannel> Andeh: Because they're stupid and don't know any better.  We've NEVER recommended it.
[10:08] <`eric-> hmm, can't i just download and install apache tomcat?
[10:08] <Andeh> I said "before you guys"
[10:08] <ffm> Andeh, !automatix is unsupported.
[10:08] <taa> i've an amd64 processor, should i stay with the generic kernel or install the k7 one ?
[10:08] <Andeh> Besides, I've upgraded several times and nothing exploded so far
[10:08] <nitrogoldfish> i know it sounds stupid, but anyone know of a text-based media player?
[10:08] <Flannel> Andeh: "before you guys" means "not in IRC", andeven then.
[10:08] <BlueLaguna> cman325: Does it work with any other programs besides skype?
[10:09] <Flannel> nitrogoldfish: of course.  mpd, mplayer can be used in console, many others.
[10:09] <taa> is there a big difference between generic kerbel and k7 one ? (for amd64 scope) ?
[10:09] <Andeh> Flannel: Means you werent the one that reccomended it.
[10:09] <Flannel> taa: You wan't generic.
[10:09] <nitrogoldfish> flannel: those support mp3 no problem?
[10:09] <cman325> BlueLaguna:  Ahh shoot I didn't even think about that. I was just googling around for you and that was my first option.
[10:09] <Flannel> er, want, even.  generic has all the optomizations for all the kernels.
[10:09] <Andeh> Ok, why is automatix so bad?
[10:09] <BlueLaguna> Heh...
[10:09] <Flannel> nitrogoldfish: Yeah.  Well, once you install mp3 codecs.
[10:09] <ffm> Andeh, Please don't use it. It uses hackish methods and has broken many systems.
[10:09] <demonspork> !remotedesktop
[10:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about remotedesktop - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:09] <T-SubWoof> Is 7.04 buggy?
[10:09] <demonspork> !remoteaccess
[10:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about remoteaccess - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[10:09] <CptAJ[ve] > uh, I know I should be patient but it seems like everyone forgot my question... I'm getting terrible download speeds from the repositories. Trying to update and its horribly slow. I tried changing the mirrors and it didn't help. Ideas?
[10:09] <Oni-Dracula> i have a laptop with an intel 945 chipset and I remember seeing somewhere that there is a fix for screen resolution, can anyone help?
[10:10] <Andeh> Ok, now where are the SwiftFox plugins stored?
[10:10] <asdqwezxcdsf> is there anybody here who knows something about sound in ubuntu??
[10:10] <ffm> Andeh, see !worksforme.
[10:10] <Andeh> I tried copying stuff from the "plugins" dir to the same one in Swiftfox but it doesnt see them
[10:10] <demonspork> CptAJ[ve] , what type of internet do you have
[10:10] <Andeh> !worksforme
[10:10] <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.
[10:10] <cman325> Bluelaguna:  still looking
[10:10] <Andeh> Um. I'm actually using the oldest version of everything...
[10:10] <CptAJ[ve] > demonspork: its not my connection. it works fine in windows and has worked fine in previous ubuntus.
[10:11] <Andeh> lol
[10:11] <BlueLaguna> cman325: thanks
[10:11] <demonspork> hmm
[10:11] <Flannel> Andeh: We also don't provide support for Swiftfox (because it's not Free, well, and most of us haven't ever used it), but it should use similar, if not identical, directory structure to FF.
[10:11] <Andeh> Pidgin isnt unstable is it, it should be in the repos by now
[10:11] <cman325> Bluelaguna: Does this one help  http://liquidat.wordpress.com/2007/05/07/howto-record-soundcard-output-with-audacity-in-kde/
[10:11] <Flannel> Andeh: Pidgin was released after Feisty was.  It'll be in Gutsy (well, it already is)
[10:11] <ffm> Andeh, Also, see http://www.netsplit.com/blog/articles/2006/10/30/automatix-and-upgrading ,
[10:11] <Andeh> Flannel: It's not free because it IS free, but compiled optimised.
[10:12] <BlueLaguna> cman325: Thanks, lemme try that
[10:12] <Andeh> Flannel: In other words, there's nothing in it that's needs to be free
[10:12] <Andeh> Flannel: it's just a compiled binary of something that is free.
[10:12] <Xenguy> htier?
[10:12] <ffm> Andeh, we only support FLOSS.
[10:12] <Flannel> Andeh: It is not Free.  It's illegal to distribute it.  But again, it should be identical to FF (unless he's done stupid things)
[10:12] <Xenguy> ww
[10:12] <CptAJ[ve] > come on guys, I'm dying here. I got a ton of configuring to do and can't even get up to date in a reasonable timeframe
[10:13] <Flannel> CptAJ[ve] : Does your connection work fine now for other stuff? (browse the internet)  It might be a lag spike in your connection (they do happen)
[10:13] <IndyGunFreak> anyone ever set up a 30gig Ipod under Feisty?
[10:13] <Andeh> ffm: So you won't tell me how to transfer plugins because you're angry that the only way you can let people download a binary is from the original website itself?
[10:13] <IndyGunFreak> mine is not recognizing for some reason
[10:13] <taa> is it recommanded to install the latest ati drivers from ati website ?
[10:14] <Andeh> ffm: Makes sense, but i wouldnt not tell me that.
[10:14] <ffm> Andeh, No. I don't use it, so I cannot help you.
[10:14] <Flannel> Andeh: No, I've told you.  None of us have used it.  BUT the directory structure SHOULD be identical.  And no, the guy who made swiftfox made it illegal to distribute it.
[10:14] <Hylk0r> when will libgksu be updated to 2.04 in ubutu's repository? Because I need that version in order to compile gksu2 python bindings
[10:15] <CptAJ[ve] > Flannel: can't exactly test if I dont install the proper software. EIther way, lag spikes dont slice off 90% of your bandwidth, yknow?
[10:15] <Andeh> Flannel: No to what? We both know that.
[10:15] <Andeh> ffm: So why are you ranting about floss?
[10:15] <CptAJ[ve] > its gotta be ubuntu
[10:15] <Andeh> lol
[10:15] <T-SubWoof> I done that. bash ./ati-driver-installer-8.37.6-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/feisty I can't go pass sudo m-a build,install fglrx-kernel
[10:15] <T-SubWoof> It will not work.
[10:15] <Andeh> IRC is fun. So, nobody here knows why SwiftFox isn't finding the plugins in the "plugins" dir?
[10:16] <Flannel> Andeh: No.  We have never used swiftfox.  Why would we have any idea?  It *should* behave just like FF.
[10:16] <BlueLaguna> cman325: Hmm, that uses a version that's only in gutsy
[10:16] <ffm> Andeh, because, it is the official policy of this channel to support floss only, that is why you can only download FLOSS from apt-get by default. BTW, look in ~/.mozilla
[10:16] <Andeh> Flannel: Um... k...
[10:16] <T-SubWoof> Because the damn thing is missing stuffs.
[10:16] <magnetron> Andeh: ask the Swiftfox maintainer?
[10:16] <Flannel> Andeh: try http://forums.getswiftfox.com/
[10:16] <BlueLaguna> cman325: I guess I'll wait until I download the beta later in the year
[10:16] <ruffleS> anyone who could teach me the shell scripting basics for a graphical scp front-end using zenity?
[10:17] <Andeh> ffm: I don't need to look in the .mozilla dir, i already copied the plugins and it doesnt recognise them. I'll check the forums
[10:17] <CptAJ[ve] > great, so besides changing the mirrors nobody has ANY other solution?
[10:17] <Andeh> USING SWIFTFOX :)
[10:17] <ffm> Andeh, OR, you could use FF, and get rid of this issue alltoghether.
[10:17] <ffm> CptAJ[ve] , What is wrong w/ changeing the mirrors?
[10:18] <Andeh> ffm: The reason I'm not doing that is in the title of the program itself. Swift = Fast = Faster than firefox.
[10:18] <enyc_> please let me know waht FTFBS acronym means ;-)
[10:18] <T-SubWoof> You guys are helping me.
[10:18] <T-SubWoof> Bye
[10:18] <CptAJ[ve] > ffm: that it doesn't fix the problem. Speeds are still slow
[10:18] <Andeh> Because firefox = slow on my pc

[10:21] <raintree> does anyone know how to set up hardware RAID 1 and install ubuntu on it?  I set it up in the bios but when i install Ubuntu it just wants to install on /dev/sda or /dev/sdb.  Shouldn't they be invisible?
[10:21] <Andeh> ffm: It's a bad habit. I download atleast 10 Megs a day (permanently stored megs) and change something atleast once a week.
[10:22] <recoy^> when i give my password it always says try again and im positive what my password is
[10:22] <Andeh> ffm: Me + Linux = Really slow but still faster than my AWESOMELY SLOW WINXP (the reason i even installed linux :P)
[10:22] <nitrogoldfish> raintree: is RAID supported inherently in your mobo or special card for?  sounds like raid isn't reading right
[10:22] <mintsoup> How come when I use gcc to compile 'helloworld.cpp' it fails?  installing g++ and running that works... shouldn't gcc work on .cpp files?

[10:22] <ffm> mintsoup, try in #c++
[10:22] <Andeh> ffm: Guess how i made the WinXP slow (apart from itself slowing it down :)) lol
[10:22] <mintsoup> kk
[10:22] <recoy^> oh wait i got it now
[10:23] <ffm> recoy^, are you a sudoer?
[10:23] <raintree> it's part of the mobo.  I have a MSI K9N6GM w/ nVidia 6100 & 405 chipset.  Supports RAID 0,1 (and JBOD).  I'm trying to do RAID 1.
[10:23] <mike_> yay!
[10:23] <mike_> beryl is working!
[10:23] <Andeh> mike_: Yaay!
[10:23] <recoy^> ffm:  can u check pm
[10:23] <Andeh> mike_: Unless you have a PC MUCH better than mine, it'll get so slow you'll turn it off :)
[10:24] <nitrogoldfish> raintree: do you have any way of confirming with bios that RAID is set up in bios as 1?
[10:24] <mike_> working just fine ATM :D
[10:24] <Andeh> mike_: You got GLX acceleration on right? I got that yesterday, i couldnt beleive the speed difference!
[10:24] <CptAJ[ve] > ffm: Like I said, I already did that, it didn't work.
[10:24] <cman325> Bluelaguana: sorry had customers,  Try a program called Istanbul   I think its in the repositories you might have to google it
[10:24] <Andeh> mike_: lol
[10:24] <ffm> CptAJ[ve] , No idea then.
[10:24] <raintree> well, when i boot it says that MIRROR is set up
[10:24] <raintree> i hit f10 on boot and go into the RAID util
[10:24] <raintree> can we go into private chat?
[10:25] <nitrogoldfish> raintree: heh...i guess that would be an indication that the RAID is fine from BIO's perspective
[10:25] <ray_> how do i set up my mouse in the dell e1505 never did get it right cant figer it out for live of me crashed system had to reinstall it since i count get it
[10:25] <nitrogoldfish> rain: aye
[10:25] <ray_> \what am i doing wrong
[10:25] <demonspork> what do I use for remote desktop on Ubuntu?  I need to be able to access it remotely from the LiveCD
[10:25] <Abu-Abudrahman> i have and integrated Via S3 unichrome Video Card , can I install beryl or Compiz ? would it be supported by these 3D environment ?
[10:25] <Andeh> mike_: Here's some advice: Don't ever, ever, ever leave programs you never use installed. I don't mean stuff that comes with ubuntu but stuff you install then forget to uninstall.
[10:25] <Andeh> mike_: If you keep them, your PC will eventually become a zombie like mine. Sllooooowwwww.....
[10:25] <nitrogoldfish> rain: but you should be warned that if the raid is working fine, then i've not much ideas
[10:25] <Andeh> mike_: :)
[10:25] <Gnea> ray_: in X?
[10:25] <ray_> gnea im running ubuntu with free install
[10:25] <mike_> we'll see, if it does I'll get rid of it
[10:26] <ray_> fresh not free
[10:26] <mike_> it's soooo pretty
[10:26] <Flannel> CptAJ[ve] : you could try disabling ipv6, that sometimes causes problems with some networks.
[10:26] <Gnea> ray_: okay, and the mouse isn't working at this time?
[10:26] <Andeh> ffm: I used swiftfox in hope that it won't eat all my cpu and memory life firefox does, and even the cynical wikipedia page says it fixes a memory leak
[10:26] <ray_> yes but duble clicking and opening i need to do so hard feel like breaking mouse
[10:26] <ray_> how i fixz this
[10:26] <raintree> perhaps i'm not doing the private chat right?  r u there nitro?
[10:27] <Gnea> ray_: did you run the diagnostics on it?
[10:27] <ray_> gnea no
[10:27] <ray_> how do i
[10:27] <Andeh> mike_: Yaaaaay. I know, it's awesome. Also, GETTING it installed actually SPEEDS up your pc, because it requires acceleration
[10:27] <`eric-> what is gksudo vs. sudo?
[10:27] <`eric-> !gksudo
[10:27] <ubotu> If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[10:27] <Andeh> mike_: Have fun. i need to go now :)
[10:27] <Gnea> ray_: reboot, press F12 when the dell-logo appears, click on 'custom tests' then run the tests on the mouse
[10:27] <`eric-> ah
[10:27] <`eric-> :)
[10:27] <`eric-> good to know
[10:27] <`eric-> lol
[10:27] <ray_> gnea it work told me this in f12
[10:28] <ray_> thought ment in here
[10:28] <PIPBoy> can anyone tell me how to delete my old java and install java 1.5?
[10:28] <ray_> no err
[10:28] <Andeh> `eric-: What exactly does GKSUDO do that sudo doesnt?
[10:28] <Gnea> ray_: okay, did the mouse buttons react the same in F12 that they're reacting now?
[10:28] <raintree> any1 else have any idea why the bios configured hardware raid which is part of my mobo would not show up in ubuntu?  Ubuntu only sees the individual disks as sda and sdb
[10:28] <CptAJ[ve] > ok, new info. its not just the repositories. I'm downloading the ubuntu image and I'm still getting horrible speed... this is the same image I downloaded in windows at full speed. There's something wrong with the way ubuntu is handling my connection...
[10:28] <ray_> no worked fine
[10:28] <At0mic_PC> How would you tell what kind of modem a laptop has? Someone formated the drive and attempted to put windows 98 on it but didn't get the modem working.
[10:28] <At0mic_PC> It's a dell latitude c600.
[10:29] <`eric-> Andeh: no idea, but it says to use it for root access of GUI's apps
[10:29] <Gnea> hrmmm
[10:29] <Flannel> CptAJ[ve] : You can try blacklisting the ipv6 module.
[10:29] <`eric-> Andeh: i'll take its word for it
[10:29] <Gnea> ray_: is that ubuntu 7.04?
[10:29] <nitrogoldfish> raintree: sorry, i kinda suck at this game.  but if RAID utils see a function RAID1, and ubuntu sees two separate disks, i got nothin'
[10:29] <Andeh> lol ok
[10:29] <Flannel> Andeh: it sets up the environment better for GUI's.  Using sudo you can get locking issues with stuff in your homedir
[10:29] <CptAJ[ve] > Flannel: how do I do that and how/why would it help?
[10:29] <ray_> gnea how i finde out
[10:29] <raintree> k, thanks nitro
[10:29] <Alconquian> At0mic_PC: try lspci -- love, ironfist
[10:29] <Gnea> ray_: open a terminal and type: lsb_release -a
[10:30] <Gnea> ray_: the Release and Codename should tell you something

[10:31] <kingnothing> has anyone successfully gotten OTR to work with pidgin 2.0.2 on feisty?
[10:31] <ray_> gnea ok
[10:31] <Flannel> CptAJ[ve] : because some routers/etc don't like ipv6, you'd do it by blacklisting the kernel module.  You can remove it with rmmod from a running system though.  But I've gotta run.  see !blacklist, but I believe that only takes affect on boot.
[10:31] <Gnea> ray_: looking something up, sec
[10:32] <ray_> gnea ok
[10:32] <CptAJ[ve] > !blacklist
[10:32] <ubotu> To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u

[10:41] <GeekMaster1> Anyone here familiar with VMWare and have experience with it?
[10:41] <ray_> gnea any thing yet?
[10:41] <BigToe> and it said "Pidgin, originally known as Gaim..."

[10:42] <cman325> BigToe yes
[10:42] <BigToe> cman325, wow.
[10:42] <uptownben> I miss the projects  ;)
[10:42] <Zambezi> How can I see if a harddrive is in PIO? Everything is so slow after booting.
[10:42] <GeekMaster1> Anyone here familiar with VMWare and have experience with it?
[10:42] <cman325> BigToe: you can get it from www.getdeb.net but I must advise the site is not supported by the ubuntu community.
[10:43] <BigToe> cman325, it's ok. I don't use it on ubuntu, I do all my IMing from my windows PC :S
[10:43] <BigToe> thanks anyway for the link :P
[10:43] <nitrogoldfish> cman325: is there any dif between pidgen and gaim aside from a version number?  is the older version no longer supported, new version not supported yet...?
[10:43] <kingcobra> ffm how can vlc include them if theyre not foss
[10:43] <uptownben> GeekMaster1: what do you need with VMWare, I've played around with it, but just put your question out there.. and see what happens.
[10:44] <cman325> Nitrogoldfish:  We found that it supported protocols like gtalk a little better.  Most of the plugins still work.  Nothing ground breaking though.
[10:44] <GeekMaster1> uptownben: what I need to do is quite complicated. It would require more than someone to have played around with it.
[10:44] <Arrick> jrib you around?

[10:46] <crimsun> kingcobra: we do not compile vlc with support for all or even most media codecs.

[10:46] <kingcobra> ffm i know that but how can vlc itself the app include the codecs in its install
[10:47] <ffm> kingcobra, It uses free libs.
[10:47] <mezziah> mm..
[10:48] <kingcobra> ffm why dont linux distros use the same codec libraries then
[10:48] <taa> hi all
[10:48] <taa> i really need some help to understand where i'm going to !
[10:48] <ffm> kingcobra, no idea
[10:48] <ffm> taa, what do you need help with?
[10:48] <crimsun> kingcobra: Ubuntu does.
[10:49] <taa> i tested radeon open source driver, then i installed ati onces in both cases glxgears is taking about 90% of my cpu
[10:49] <kingcobra> crimsun what ubuntu app uses these libs
[10:49] <taa> iffm  tested radeon open source driver, then i installed ati onces in both cases glxgears is taking about 90% of my cpu
[10:49] <paulours> yeah same for me

[10:59] <nitrogoldfish> ray_: nope...lemme scroll up (i failed speedreading)
[10:59] <ray_> ok
[10:59] <kbrooks> ekso, nothing, by itself. that is, you can remove ubuntu-desktop without affecting anything else. but put it back before you do a command line upgrade please.
[10:59] <ray_> ni that whats going on
[10:59] <GeekMaster1> Well I dunno. I don't really get an error because I just don't know how to do it. I need someone to give me a step by step on how to do it because there are no guides out there
[10:59] <Gnea> hey, ray_'s got an issue with his mouse buttons not being very sensitive in ubuntu (they work fine in the diagnostics) but i can't continue helping him right now - need the system->preferences-> to configure mouse sensitivity
[11:00] <Gnea> nitrogoldfish: ^^^
[11:00] <ekso> kbrooks: okey! tks! :)
[11:00] <ray_> !spam >gnea
[11:00] <gzuki> am I wrong in saying that dhcp doesn't work on boot in feisty?
[11:00] <nitrogoldfish> thanks gnea
[11:01] <kbrooks> ekso, i think the automated upgrader deals with it for you so that you don't have to.
[11:01] <cman325> alright folks,
[11:01] <ray_> ni?
[11:01] <gzuki> I don't even have voice in this channel do I...
[11:01] <kbrooks> ekso, the upgrader that opens when you click upgrade in the update manager
[11:01] <GeekMaster1> The only step that I have done so far is install VMWare, install RDesktop and get VMTools on VMware working. I don't know how to run VMWare headless and get VMWare and RDesktop working together
[11:01] <CptAJ[ve] > ok, since no one here can help me, could someone please direct me to a channel that can?
[11:01] <cman325> you all have a good night.  I have some summer time to go Enjoy.   I'll bbl

[11:02] <Tree> hi, anyone successfully used pptp-client on dapper ? always getting 'ubuntu pptp faild = Cannot determine ethernet address for proxy ARP' and when i manually add routes via add route etc pptp-client starts giving me 1-3 errors per sec to stdout telling me unknown protocoll. encryption has to be active since im using it for relakks.com
[11:02] <Gnea> ray_: lol
[11:02] <GeekMaster1> The reason I don't like asking questions in the room is
[11:02] <mrsn0> CptAJ[ve]  can you describe your problem some more please?
[11:02] <surviver> hy evryone , anyone can say me how i set in ubuntu my screen resolution to  another format,
[11:02] <ray_> !spam |gnea
[11:02] <ubotu> gnea: Unsure how you should behave on this channel? See !AskTheBot, !CoC, !Guidelines, !Offtopic, !Language, !Attitude, !Repeat, !Enter, !Paste, !NickSpam - and most importantly, use common sense :-)
[11:02] <srini> I am using ubuntu server edition and having issues with tos based network routing.. whats the good channel to discuss ?
[11:02] <CptAJ[ve] > mrsn0: Alright, still getting horrible download speeds from everything. I tried blacklisting ipv6, rebooted and it didn't help one bit. Neither does changing the repository mirrors and the problem also happens when I just download something from a browser (say, the ubuntu image). Again, I remind you that this doesn't happen in windows, previous ubuntu versions and its not a lagspike. Let me hear some ideas.
[11:03] <surviver> ! resolution
[11:03] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[11:03] <Gnea> GeekMaster1: you need to login with rdesktop first, then run vmware
[11:03] <mrsn0> CptAJ[ve]  so its feisty only? what about the livecd environment?
[11:03] <GeekMaster1> I don't like to ask questions in the room because I have to ask long questions and when they get ignored it is very discouraging.
[11:03] <ray_> ni still here\
[11:03] <nitrogoldfish> ray_: sorry, i'm not gonna be of much help
[11:03] <ray_> any one?
[11:03] <ray_> here
[11:04] <Gnea> nitrogoldfish: he just needs to know how to get to the mouse configuration
[11:04] <GeekMaster1> Gnea: You mean like this?
[11:04] <GeekMaster1> vmrun start "/var/lib/vmware/Virtual Machines/Windows Vista (experimental)/Windows Vista (experimental).vmx"
[11:04] <CptAJ[ve] > mrsn0: well I didn't try in the live CD environment. What would you say if it did and didnt happen there?
[11:04] <nitrogoldfish> isn't that just click system, go to preferences, then mouse settings?
[11:04] <GeekMaster1> Gnea: And then like this? rdesktop -A -s "c:\seamlessrdp\seamlessrdpshell.exe notepad.exe" 192.16.155.128 -u danny -p XXXXXX
[11:04] <Gnea> nitrogoldfish: i don't know, i don't have my ubuntu up and running right now
[11:05] <mrsn0> CptAJ[ve]  if you do not experience any slow downloads (please explain how you have tested , browsing , wget, speedtest online etc) whilst running off the livecd then it may be something installed causing it, but its at least a start to attempt to troubleshoot :)
[11:05] <ray_> im :( no one willing to help
[11:05] <nitrogoldfish> gnea: lol...me neither
[11:05] <mrsn0> CptAJ[ve]  also, please explain how you are connected to the internet, we need more info really
[11:05] <boi1555> very simple question... where  are programs usually installed? i need to get to a folder but cant find it ... ex. beryl?
[11:05] <Gnea> GeekMaster1: uh, no... what vmware are you running? workstation?
[11:05] <demonspork_> how do I set up a remote desk top in Ubuntu?
[11:05] <Gnea> nitrogoldfish: d'oh! :(
[11:05] <ray_> :(
[11:05] <GeekMaster1> What I need is for someone to IM me through instant messenger. My issue is no tan issue that can be resolved through just a few messages in this room
[11:05] <GeekMaster1> Gnea: VMware
[11:06] <GeekMaster1> Gnea: VMWare server
[11:06] <jrib> GeekMaster1: you need to explain the issue before someone can know whether or not they can help you
[11:06] <jrib> Arrick: hi

[11:06] <surviver> anyone can say me how i can resize my screenresolution?
[11:06] <Music_Shuffle> Hi :)
[11:06] <GeekMaster1> jrib: I explained the issue in detail
[11:06] <Gnea> GeekMaster1: how do you usually access vmware server? by typing the command and then having it show up on the desktop?
[11:06] <jrib> surviver: system -> preferences -> screen resolution
[11:06] <mozphat> help! my Pocket PC doesn't appear in /dev/.  I installed rndis_host_lite and the device is detected when I look at dmesg: "rndis0: register 'rndis_host'"
[11:06] <Ramzi> Oh, surviver, I had this problem when I first installed too.
[11:06] <surviver> jrib, did but i get only 3 choices
[11:06] <Ramzi> Open your terminal.
[11:07] <Arrick> hey jrib I had a question but the other channel beat you to it
[11:07] <ray_> jr you goot with the mouse
[11:07] <GeekMaster1> Gnea: I access VMWare by typing "vmware" in the terminal
[11:07] <surviver> ramzi, u fixt it?
[11:07] <Gnea> !vnc | demonspork_
[11:07] <jrib> GeekMaster1: the repeat it: if no one knew before, maybe someone new can help.  Or try other support methods
[11:07] <ubotu> demonspork_: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX

[11:07] <CptAJ[ve] > mrsn0: I have a DSL 1024/512 kbps connection. I tested downloading updates with apt-get and the gnome updater. I also tried downloading the ubuntu iso and still got slow speeds. MInd you I got over 100kb/s when I downloaded it just this morning using windows.
[11:07] <jrib> !fixres > surviver (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:07] <jrib> Arrick: k, cool
[11:07] <boi1555> uh .. guys anyone simple question how do i know where a program was installed .. ?
[11:07] <Gnea> GeekMaster1: and rdesktop allows you to connect and control the desktop on the computer with vmware, right?
[11:07] <CptAJ[ve] > mrsn0: I also tried blacklisting ipv6 to no avail
[11:07] <ray_> jrib goot with the mouse

[11:08] <jrib> ray_: ask the channel your question
[11:08] <Ramzi> Hey guys. I downloaded and installed the UT2K4 demo. But when I try to launch it, it opens and closes immediately. Any ideas?
[11:08] <GeekMaster1> Gnea: I guess
[11:08] <boi1555> Gnea: thanks!
[11:08] <ray_> jrbi i did gean pls repost
[11:08] <Gnea> GeekMaster1: so then you need to connect with rdesktop first, then run vmware. it's that simple.
[11:08] <mrsn0> CptAJ[ve]  well a torren't isn't really a good benchmark, as it depends on the seeds/peers as to how fast or slow it will be, so if you can then first boot from the livecd, test a known working fast link (isp cache maybe) and then try again from the ubuntu install
[11:08] <mozphat> help! I installed rndis_host_lite for my Pocket PC and the device is detected when I look at dmesg: "rndis0: register 'rndis_host'.  No device can be found in /dev/

[11:09] <Gnea> GeekMaster1: oh, thought you knew how to use rdesktop
[11:09] <jrib> ray_: maybe, but you need to ask your question or state the problem first :)
[11:09] <GeekMaster1> Gnea: I'm sorry, I didn't see the terminal commands you gave me
[11:09] <CptAJ[ve] > mrsn0: ok, I'm gonna test it from the live CD be back in a bit

[11:11] <mrsn0> GeekMaster1 sorry to butt in but the latest virtualbox supports vista
[11:11] <GeekMaster1> Gnea: DO you know how to run RDesktop with VMWare?
[11:11] <ray_> jrib what i do in it im litrel new

[11:15] <ray_> how i get that jrib
[11:15] <Gnea> GeekMaster1: i can't tell you the exact steps, that's why i gave you those urls to read - there's no use in me repeating what others have painstakingly done before

[11:30] <kitfrog> ClayG: k. I'm just setting it up myself atm
[11:30] <poningru> newb: iwconfig
[11:30] <fuzzy_logic> johnyg: thanks, i will take a look at it..
[11:30] <ClayG> kitfrog, it's amazing, it actually runs BETTER on wine that on doze for me at least
[11:31] <gotgenes_> pitecantropus: they don't play in my browser; Totem bug I think
 It says RA1
[11:31] <kitfrog> ClayG: lol, god I hope it does for me too then
[11:31] <ClayG> i tried a few how-to's the best and easiest seemed to be wowwiki's
[11:31] <poningru> newb: seriously?
[11:31] <fuzzy_logic> kismet: make sure that the user that you want to log in is logged out at the computer that you want to connect to..
[11:31] <poningru> can you pastebin the whole thing?
[11:31] <ClayG> only thing i haven't done yet is get vent up on it
[11:31] <fuzzy_logic> ksimet: i made the same stupid mistake..
[11:31] <kismet> fuzzy_logic, wouldn't the session be closed then?
[11:32] <pitecantropus> gotgenes, thank you :)
[11:32] <newb> Yes according to the site https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/RalinkRT61 that is what I was suppose to make it.
[11:32] <kismet> fuzzy_logic, i mean can't i connect whilst the session is running?
[11:32] <poningru> newb: can you pastebin the output from iwconfig?
[11:32] <fuzzy_logic> kismet: that's right
[11:32] <noiesmo> pitecantropus, i would suggest mozilla-mplayer but you will need to remove totem-mozilla
[11:32] <poningru> who else needed help?
[11:32] <crolle17> i need help with wine
[11:33] <johnnyg> ponigru: I do
[11:33] <poningru> crolle17: whatsup?
[11:33] <crolle17> i installed wine-package and tried wine setup.exe
[11:33] <kismet> fuzzy_logic, i wanted to move around my box whilst i was in the office but i didn't want it to log off and shutdown the running processes
[11:33] <crolle17> but got message:wine: could not load L"c:\\windows\\...
[11:33] <ray_> jrib ok now were i want the slider in mouse place
[11:33] <Flannel> !wine | crolle17
[11:33] <ubotu> crolle17: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
 There was a guy here last week and he was kind of abrubt but he tried helping and kept telling me to follow those directions.  He seemed to be answering a lot of questions so I trusted his advice.
[11:33] <jrib> ray_: what do you mean?
 Sure hold on.
[11:34] <ray_> will figer it out
[11:34] <fuzzy_logic> kismet: as far as i know that is not possible but i will do some research for you.. just a sec please
[11:34] <kismet> thankyou so much
[11:34] <poningru> crolle17: what did you install (wine-package?) and how did you install it(synaptic, aptitude etc.) ?
[11:34] <noiesmo> crolle17, check the path of wine with "which wine" it should be /usr/local/bin/wine if not you need a synbolik link to there
[11:34] <poningru> johnnyg: whatsup?
[11:35] <taa> omg AMD and ATI are damned !
[11:35] <poningru> noiesmo: I am guessing he didnt install the whole thing
[11:35] <taa> no one can help me :"(
[11:35] <crolle17> poningru, sudo apt-get install wine
[11:35] <Flannel> kismet: what programs are you running? (and trying to keep persistence on?)
[11:35] <poningru> crolle17: did you startup wine atleast once?
[11:35] <johnnyg> I just purchased a USB external hard drisk, maxtor onetouch III mini. When I try to mkdir or move anything onto it I'm told it is read only.
[11:35] <kismet> Flannel, just my usual irc / torrents / im clients
[11:35] <noiesmo> poningru, if he did apt-get install he did its a problem I have come across before and had to sym link myself
  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26928/
[11:36] <crolle17> noiesmo, this path isn't available (/usr/local/bin/wine)
[11:36] <poningru> noiesmo: oh! please do help him
[11:36] <poningru> did not know that
[11:36] <johnnyg> I googled this, apparently it is NTSF by default. I want to format it and use it with ubunutu. I'm told the command I need is mkfs.ext3 -j /dev/sda1, but I'm not sure that the usb drive is on /dev/sda1 and don't wnat to delete my hard drive. How do I verify which /dev my USB hard drive is on?
[11:36] <ray_> jrib thanks for help do i need any thing eles for this
[11:36] <ray_> for my dell 1505 for ubuntue
[11:36] <ray_> ubuntu i mean
[11:36] <jrib> ray_: you added shmconfig to xorg.conf?
[11:36] <ray_> yes jrib
[11:37] <noiesmo> crolle17, "sudo ln -s /usr/bin/wine /usr/local/bin/wine"
[11:37] <ray_> did what site link you gave me told me
[11:37] <poningru> newb: what version of ubuntu are you running? Feisty?
[11:37] <jrib> ray_: I think you should be good to go with gsynaptic then
[11:37] <Flannel> kismet: you might look into just using screen and SSH.  No GUI, butyou'll be able to keep your stuff.  And there are CLI versions of all those.
[11:37] <bruenig> johnnyg, plug it in, check dmesg for a name, or if it is automounting as it generally does in ubuntu using hal, just wait for it to do that and then do cat /etc/mtab to see the name
[11:37] <taa> (EE) AIGLX error: dlsym for __driCreateNewScreen_20050727 failed (/usr/lib/dri/fglrx_dri.so: undefined symbol: __
[11:37] <emem> ko hieu gi ca
 Was that helpful?
[11:37] <fuzzy_logic> kismet: i'm sorry.. i think i'm not able to help you with this one.. actually i think it is not possible to accomplish what you want..
[11:37] <taa> any one know an issue for that ?
[11:37] <poningru> newb: yes
[11:37] <ray_> jrib any thing eles i need for ubuntu for dell e1505
[11:37] <poningru> newb: are you running feisty?
[11:37] <jrib> ray_: nothing you *need* I guess
[11:37] <ray_> k
[11:37] <johnnyg> bruenig: it is auto mounting. What is hal?
[11:37] <kismet> fuzzy_logic, ok, thanks for the help

[11:39] <poningru> newb: do you see the network-manager thing on the top right hand corner
[11:39] <johnnyg> poningru: I am installing gparted with apt-get now.
 Yes
[11:39] <poningru> newb: left click on it you should see a bunch of networks
[11:39] <Ademan> anyone know if there's an ubuntu release schedule/important dates google calendar (or ical calendar) that I could add to evolution?
[11:39] <poningru> err any wifi connections in the area
[11:39] <jrib> Ademan: check out fridge.ubuntu.com
[11:39] <johnnyg> poningru: Gparted is successfully installed. Do I need to boot?
[11:40] <Paddy_EIRE> Ademan, that would be handy
[11:40] <alex675> hola
[11:40] <poningru> johnnyg: no
[11:40] <crolle17> noiesmo, i made "sudo ln -s /usr/bin/wine /usr/local/bin/wine" and then tried to cd into /usr/local/bin/wine
[11:40] <bruenig> johnnyg, launch it from the menus or with gksu gparted
[11:40] <Ademan> thanks jrib
[11:40] <poningru> just go to system->admin->gparted
[11:40] <bruenig> crocodile, what are you doing?
 I see them and try to connect and it asks me for the code so I put it in and then show it to make sure it is in correctly but the wheel goes round and round but never gets a dhcp address.
[11:40] <noiesmo> crolle17, you cant change directory to a file
[11:40] <sldkfj> I don't want to make this a dns server, how would I uninstall avahi
[11:40] <Flannel> Ademan: All release schedules are available as iCal, linked from the Release Schedule wiki page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyReleaseSchedule
[11:40] <noiesmo> crolle17, try runnjing "wine setup.exe as you wanted
[11:41] <Ademan> thanks Flannel
[11:41] <crolle17> noiesmo, o.k.
[11:41] <poningru> newb: hmm what kind of encryption does that wifi have?
[11:41] <Ademan> yay it's broken right now
[11:41] <poningru> wep or wpa?
[11:41] <crolle17> noiesmo, Warning: the specified Windows directory L"c:\\windows" is not accessible
[11:41] <crolle17> wine: could not load L"c:\\windows\\system32\\setup.exe":
[11:41] <newb> 128 wep
[11:42] <crolle17> noiesmo, do i have to create theses dirs?
[11:42] <johnnyg> poningru: This is sweet! I've loaded gparted, I've located the usbdisk which was on /dev/sbc (glad I didn't format). I think i want to turn it into FAT32 now? How do i do it?
[11:42] <bruenig> crolle17, try this, sudo rm -rf ~/.wine
[11:42] <crolle17> these
 128 wep
[11:42] <Flannel> Ademan: Eh.  So it is.  Well, that's where it would be ;)
[11:42] <noiesmo> crolle17, no
[11:42] <poningru> newb: ok go to manual configuration and configure it from there
[11:42] <noiesmo> crolle17, hmmm try wine /full/path/to/setup.exe
[11:42] <crolle17> noiesmo, why do i shall remove this hidden dir?
 I tried but it still will not get a dhcp address.
[11:43] <poningru> johnnyg: right click on the thing and you gotta delete the ntfs partition
[11:43] <poningru> johnnyg: then you gotta do new partition
[11:43] <poningru> and pick fat32
[11:43] <johnnyg> poningru: Also, there is a lock icon under the partition column. Delete is grayed out. I can unmount...
[11:43] <DeathAngel> anyone know how to get software version info from the command line? Like on KDE?
[11:43] <poningru> johnnyg: yeah you have unmount first
[11:43] <johnnyg> poningru: says it is busy
[11:43] <Flannel> DeathAngel: What software versions you looking for?
[11:43] <Ademan> Flannel: haha, yeah it's fine, i'm sure it'll be up in time to get my butt moving
[11:43] <bruenig> johnnyg, umount it in the terminal
[11:43] <poningru> johnnyg: do you have any windows or anything open?
[11:43] <johnnyg> poningru: how about I close the window I have open :)
[11:44] <poningru> :p
[11:44] <crolle17> noiesmo, still the same error-messsage.
[11:44] <DeathAngel> I just want to find out what software version I have installed of KDE.
[11:44] <poningru> newb: connect to it in manual configuration
[11:44] <johnnyg> poningru: ok, I unmounted. Now I can either "delete" or "format to". Do I want to "format to" FAT32?
[11:44] <crolle17> noiesmo, Warning: the specified Windows directory L"c:\\windows" is not accessible
 I will try and will get back in a minute.
[11:45] <poningru> newb: and then afterward in a terminal do 'sudo dhclient3 ra1'
[11:45] <poningru> johnnyg: yes do format to
[11:45] <crolle17> noiesmo, i read somewhere that there is a config-file to edit?
 OK
[11:45] <noiesmo> crolle17, did you run wine or winecfg as root by chnace as you should not do this

[11:47] <poningru> Lekrem: use system->admin->software sources
[11:47] <noiesmo> crolle17, check the permissions and ownship on your users .wine folder in home directory ~/.wine
[11:47] <Flannel> DeathAngel: just package versions? or Ubuntu versoin? or what?  Ah. Well, you'd need to check the version of a package that shares version number with KDE.  so, something like: kdelibs4c2a  So, `dpkg -l | grep kdelibs4c2a`
[11:47] <poningru> johnnyg: yeah you gotta mount it
[11:47] <Lekrem> poningru, im just adding a repostiory line, ive done it before, i just forgot where it was
[11:48] <Netgod> (#G>10E=10M1) Anyone else her have Microsoft Comic Strip Chat?
[11:48] <poningru> johnnyg: just restart and it should auto mount
[11:48] <noiesmo> crolle17, also files within ~/.wine
[11:48] <poningru> Lekrem: ok as long as you know what you are doing
[11:48] <DeathAngel> thanks, I'll try that.
[11:48] <saffi> Where can i find what hardware (DVD) is supported

[11:49] <poningru> like a dvd drive?
[11:49] <poningru> almost everything should be supported
[11:49] <johnnyg> poningru: It works!
[11:49] <poningru> johnnyg: awesome :)
[11:49] <johnnyg> poningru: Thank you very much.

[11:54] <OConnor> hello, any1 knows if there' s any alternative for flash player? i've got the 64bit version of Ubuntu, and that doesn't support flash...
[11:55] <poningru> ryanakca: sure looking
[11:55] <bruenig> OConnor, nspluginwrapper
[11:55] <poningru> OConnor: you can try the open source gnash
[11:55] <poningru> !gnash
[11:55] <ubotu> An open source flash replacement.  It is still beta software. For current status or for more info http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/
[11:55] <bruenig> gnash is awful
[11:55] <calc> well flash is awful to begin with...
[11:55] <bruenig> gnash is awful at implementing flash
[11:55] <poningru> !flash | OConnor also look into this
[11:55] <ubotu> OConnor also look into this: 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
[11:55] <MrOtacon> newb: what card are you using? I also have a ra tech card... whats ur chipset?
[11:55] <calc> bruenig: heh probably so
[11:56] <poningru> newb: no your card should be working
[11:56] <OConnor> thx, gnash, or nspluginwrapper, what's that last 1?
[11:56] <bruenig> OConnor, allows you to use the 32 bit flash plugin
 I'm using a Lynksys wmp54g Ver 4.1

[11:57] <OConnor> bruenig, i'm a linux newbi, is it a program or a console command?

[11:57] <bruenig> OConnor, it is a program, a wrapper if you will, search for it in the forums, I am sure there is a howto
[11:58] <OConnor> i will. ty

[11:58] <Tombar_uy> any guide out theare to install php4 on 7.04?

[11:59] <bruenig> Tombar_uy, is it not in the repos?
[11:59] <poningru> newb: also have you looked into specifying a particular ipadress for the interface?
 I have been at this one issue for a while.  I had the wireless issue occur on a laptop as well which initially worked but I had to remove Ndiswrapper and put it in again and eventually it works great.  All my uh uhm Microsoft versions work without any problems.
[11:59] <Tombar_uy> bruenig: ive look arroung and found that its not on 7.04 repos, php5 yes
[11:59] <Tombar_uy> but i work on php4
[11:59] <crolle17> noiesmo, even this the wincfg command fails: wincfg: command not found
[11:59] <poningru> bruenig, Tombar_uy no sorry php4 was taken out from the repos
[12:00] <johnnyg> poningru: When I install stuff in windows, I put it in C:\Program Files\whatever  in linux, stuff seems to be installed to /home/.app  What is the leading dot? Where should I be installing stuff?
[12:00] <bruenig> learn 5
[12:00] <poningru> Tombar_uy: you probably should not use php4 it has too many security issues
[12:00] <Flannel> johnnyg: no.  config files are ~/.app, it's installed in /usr/bin.
[12:00] <poningru> what bruenig said, its not that different
It picks up the network.  I even put another wireless AP in and it picks it upo as well but does not get an address.
[12:00] <Tombar_uy> i know poningru, but i think maybe downloading sources and compileing them may work, just looking for a tutorial
