[12:01] <Bob082> Dumb Question: "If I install ubuntu on some hardware, then say I take the harddrive and place it with new hardware, will I have to configure everything over or what? Will ubuntu just detect the new hardware?
[12:01] <poningru> johnnyg: you dont have to worry about that stuff just install stuff from synaptic or aptitude
 Right now I have an ethernet card in but I wanted to just use the wireless.
[12:01] <Pirate_Hunter> Hi having a problem with my connection, my source list is messed up, I can't seem to connect to archive.ubuntu.com which is one of the main sites for updates and upgrades. Can someone help me on resolving the issue?
[12:01] <poningru> it will get installed automatically
[12:01] <Flannel> johnnyg: http://www.secguru.com/files/linux_file_structure.jpg  There's a good rundown on how linux organizes stuff.  Also, http://www.tldp.org/LDP/Linux-Filesystem-Hierarchy/html/index.html  Although, Ubuntu does do things a smidge different.  But really, package management remvoes the need to know all this stuff.
[12:01] <johnnyg> Flannel: So if I want to install Ubuntu to another machine and I back up my home directory, then I reinstall firefox and then restore my home and my bookmarks are restored?
[12:02] <poningru> newb: dude did you try specifiying the ip address?
[12:02] <Flannel> Pirate_Hunter: can you conenct to it via other means? wget? http?
[12:02] <poningru> instead of doing dhcp use static ip
[12:02] <fuzzy_logic> Pirate_Hunter: what kind of error do you get?
[12:02] <dick-richardson> anyone have experience getting a rt2500 wifi chipset working? iwpriv doesn't appear to be working
[12:02] <noiesmo> Bob082, you will probably have to reconfigure video
[12:02] <Bob082> Just video?
[12:02] <noiesmo> Bob082, what video card you got
[12:02] <Flannel> johnnyg: yeah.  If you transplant your homedir, everything (except programs) is there.  Once you install said programs again, you can pretend nothing happened.
 Yes.  Never logs in.  I will try again.  Hold on.
[12:02] <Bob082> Radeon 9250
[12:02] <fuzzy_logic> dick-richardson: have you used the restricted drivers manager?
[12:02] <Flannel> !ops

[12:02] <poningru> Bob082: yes it should all work
[12:02] <dick-richardson> fuzzy_logic: i have, yes...says I don't need any
[12:02] <Bob082> okay thanks
[12:03] <johnnyg> Flannel: that is pretty elegant. Thank you for the links and answers, I'm looking through them now.
[12:03] <ompaul> Flannel, was that it?
[12:03] <anon2000> Hello, can someone tell me what values i need for my horizsync and vertrefresh in xorg.conf? I have a 19" monitor that's supposed to run at 1280x1024 @60hz but it will only go up to 50hz in ubuntu... i chcked my monitor's manual and changed those two values but it still doesn't work
[12:03] <Flannel> johnnyg: if you run servers and stuff, they put some stuff in other locations.  But you'll know about migrating them once you set them up (or you'll know you need to look into how to at least).
[12:03] <Pirate_Hunter> Flannel & fuzzy_logic: archive.ubuntu.com is a no go and i need it to update my packages, im certain it is something with the source list - i dont get an error just hangs when connecting to that destination
[12:03] <ompaul> Flannel,  it was forget my question
[12:04] <Flannel> ompaul: yeah.  Second time he's done that.  And was spamming earlier too.
[12:04] <fuzzy_logic> david-richardson: try this tutorial: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=451519
[12:04] <poningru> anon2000: easier way to do it is sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow xorg-server-core
[12:04] <Flannel> Pirate_Hunter: pastebin your sources.list
[12:04] <JPaxford> good evening ... my 1st visit ere and would like some advice please ... currently using fujitsu FDX310 usb adsl modem for my internet connection. i av just upgraded from winxp to vista and having done some research this afternoon find that usb adsl modems dont play nicely with vista :o(. i am also looking to dual boot vista with feisty (new to linux) and was wondering what to replace my usb adsl fujitsu with. is is an adsl modem router 
[12:04] <dick-richardson> fuzzy_logic: thank you!!!
[12:04] <fuzzy_logic> Pirate_Hunter: how can you be sure of that? were you messing with it??
[12:04] <poningru> anon2000: and when it asks, you can change it
 It will not take the static address.
[12:04] <fuzzy_logic> dick-richardson: no probs.. tell me if it works
[12:04] <poningru> newb: what do you mean?
[12:04] <anon2000> poningru: what's the -plow for?
[12:05] <poningru> anon2000: priority low
[12:05] <poningru> anon2000: man dpkg-reconfigure
[12:05] <Flannel> Pirate_Hunter: You can get to http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/  in a web browser with no problems?
[12:05] <poningru> newb: hmm that sounds like it wont take an ip address
[12:05] <hylje> JPaxford: a stand alone adsl box is the most compatible
[12:05] <Pirate_Hunter> fuzzy_logic: nope it happened before & someone helped me byt telling me to get a new source list sadly I dont know the site he gave me or the instruction i followed
I put in the static address but it wheels arround and then reconects to the wired network.
[12:05] <crolle17> noiesmo, is there something to notice after installation the wine-packages? something to configure?
[12:05] <Pirate_Hunter> Flannel: how do i get my source list from command?
[12:05] <poningru> newb: lets try doing this exclucively from terminal
[12:05] <fuzzy_logic> Pirate_Hunter: just a sec i will give you my sources list..
[12:05] <Flannel> Pirate_Hunter: open /etc/apt/sources.list in a text editor.
[12:06] <tarzeau> where is michael?
 OK how?
[12:06] <JPaxford> hylje .. what might a stand alone adsl box be? sorry if silly q
[12:06] <noiesmo> crolle17, open terminal type "winecfg"
[12:06] <poningru> newb: in a terminal do 'gksudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces'
[12:06] <Pirate_Hunter> Flannel: nope cna't even access it in browser but can do so for other websites
[12:06] <poningru> err no
[12:06] <poningru> dont do that
[12:06] <tarzeau> they ate your logo? Gnea? http://msanet.org/
[12:06] <hylje> JPaxford: phone cable in, network cable out
[12:07] <johnnyg> Flannel: While I am asking basic questions, I'm connecting with Konversation. Is there a click shortcut I can use to populate the name of the person I intend the message for? typing it out and/or copy paste gets tedious.
[12:07] <mike> can someone giveme the ubuntu UI channel again?
[12:07] <Flannel> !mirrors | Pirate_Hunter
[12:07] <ubotu> Pirate_Hunter: Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[12:07] <Flannel> mike: you mean #ubuntu-effects?
[12:07] <mike> danke Flannel :)
[12:07] <Flannel> Pirate_Hunter: What about other mirrors.  Try some of htem in your web browser.  Sounds more like network issue than a sources.list issue
[12:07] <crolle17> noiesmo, tried this before and got this:  wincfg: command not found
OK and now what would you like me to put in?  It already has my static address and info.
[12:08] <fuzzy_logic> Pirate_Hunter: i guess if you can't access it with your browser i don't think something is wrong with your sources list..
[12:08] <JPaxford> hylje .. i have a dell dimension e520  with ethernet. is this what i need and will any adsl modem router 1 port be acceptable for immediate internet connection on booting live cd?
[12:08] <noiesmo> crolle17, what about wineconfig
[12:08] <Pirate_Hunter> Flannel: i can access all websites but ubuntu archive gives me trouble, this aint the first time it has happened but like I said the other guy gave me instructions on how to get a new source list
[12:09] <crolle17> noiesmo, the same
[12:09] <hylje> JPaxford: given functional, it will work with about anything you throw at it. inc. linux livecds :)
[12:09] <Flannel> Pirate_Hunter: right, before we can choose a new mirror, we have to figure out which ones you CAN get to.  Go through the mirror list, find one (preferrably close to you) that works in a web browser.  Then we can migrate your mirror.
[12:09] <noiesmo> crolle17, hmm I have it, i'm running fiesty just cant think where i got winecfg from
[12:10] <Flannel> johnnyg: Type the first few letters, then hit tab.
 Did you give up on me? :(
[12:10] <OConnor> guys, gnash works, but isn't in the browser yet, just as the stand0alone player. it has some difficulties with flash games :D
[12:10] <fuzzy_logic> Pirate_Hunter&Flannel: i would first try to figure out why he can't reach the official repositories rather than do some workarounds..
[12:10] <johnnyg> Flannel: awesome. I don't suppose you can tell me how to use linux to get out of doing laundry?
[12:11] <JPaxford> hylje ..... so something like http://www.solwise.co.uk/adsl-sar600e.htm is all i need perhaps?
[12:11] <Flannel> johnnyg: sure, build a robot that runs linux and teach it how to do your laundry ;)
[12:11] <Pirate_Hunter> fuzzy_logic & Flannel: kk, tried the websites posted, the first dont work for me but the second gives me different mirrors
[12:11] <noiesmo> crolle17, http://sourceforge.net/projects/winecfg/
[12:11] <sldkfj> newb, maybe you can take yours back if you find something here.......... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported
[12:11] <johnnyg> Flannel: I was hoping for apt-get install do-laundry  :)  Thanks again for the help.
[12:11] <evri2> Guys i got 64bit Ubuntu Feisty.It starts with generic kernel.But I have AMD Turion 64 X2.Souldn't it start with K8 kernel(even i downloaded it with package maneger)?The problem that i have is i cannot use Cool'n Quiet.I need it because it will increase battery life time.
[12:11] <poningru> newb: hold on
[12:12] <hylje> JPaxford: unfortunately i cant say anything about that. it likely works, though.
 ok sorry.
[12:12] <paritosh_> how do you install themes in kde..?
[12:12] <poningru> newb: sorry mom is calling :(
[12:12] <JPaxford> hylje ... ok good buddy thanx 4 help. anyone else any ideas please?
[12:12] <fuzzy_logic> evri2: you can't choose a k8 kernel in your grub when the computer is booting??
[12:13] <paritosh_> ??
[12:13] <Pirate_Hunter> Flannel: which mirror should I choose for the UK I seem to get into all of them
[12:13] <evri2> no i only got 2 kernel(one from default installation of ubuntu feisty another is uptaded) I think 2.6.14 or sth like this other is 2.6.15
[12:13] <evri2> both are named generic at the end of it
[12:13] <evri2> fuzzy_logic
[12:14] <paritosh_> anybody, installing themes in KDE?
[12:14] <fuzzy_logic> evri2: wait a sec i will do some research for you..
[12:14] <noiesmo> paritosh_, thru system settins or kcontrol
[12:14] <DaSkreech> Hello

[12:14] <noiesmo> hello DaSkreech
[12:15] <poningru> newb: sorry dude I have to run
[12:15] <fuzzy_logic> evri2: did you check if the kernel you installed is really marked installed in synaptic??
[12:15] <poningru> I'll be back later
[12:15] <Music_Shuffle> !themes | paritosh_
[12:15] <Flannel> Pirate_Hunter: Shouldn't matter, pick the one you like the most.
[12:15] <ubotu> paritosh_: please see above
[12:15] <DaSkreech> I'm having a sysnc error on the filesystem and I'd like to repair the FAT
[12:15] <evri2> yes
[12:15] <paritosh_> it isnt in the proper KDE theme file format so the theme centre doesn't recognize it
[12:15] <evri2> synaptic says both k8 and newest generic kernels are installed
[12:15] <Pirate_Hunter> Flannel: than what? which option do I choose after that?
[12:16] <evri2> to make sure of i can send you upload a picture
[12:16] <paritosh_> ok. erm thanks. but i kind of tried googling. there is no standard way is there?
[12:16] <DaSkreech> Windows can't see the hard drive and so can't boot
[12:16] <fuzzy_logic> evri: i beleive you :)
[12:16] <fuzzy_logic> evri2
 no Worries.  I am looking at a site of cards that work right out of the box courtosy of <sldkfj>
[12:17] <Flannel> Pirate_Hunter: option?  Nothing.  You just need the URL of a repository mirror.  Then we'll change your sources.list to use that mirror.
[12:17] <crolle17> noiesmo, err:winecfg:apply_drive_changes   unable to define devicename of 'C:', targetpath of '../Programme'
[12:17] <evri2> bla i can send you a picture it was.I am doing so many jobs.Please forgive me for bad english(typing so quick). :P
[12:18] <Pirate_Hunter> kk I chose it already it is ftp://ftp.blueyonder.co.uk/sites/ubuntu/archive/
[12:18] <evri2> fuzzy_logic and thx for help
[12:18] <fuzzy_logic> evri2: no probs.. i'm searching for a solution right njow
[12:18] <fuzzy_logic> now
[12:18] <noiesmo> crolle17, wow not sure
 What is the best and easiest card to install?
[12:19] <noiesmo> crolle17, maybe try asking in winehq
[12:19] <Flannel> Pirate_Hunter: actually, it'll be easiest to just do it this way:  this'll gve you a full sources.list you cna juts copy over your current one.
[12:19] <Flannel> !easysource | Pirate_Hunter
[12:19] <ubotu> Pirate_Hunter: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
 Out of the box.
[12:19] <evri2> http://www.amd.com/us-en/Processors/TechnicalResources/0,,30_182_871_14098,00.html  Take a look to that pls.It gives two headers files to enable that feature.But it is so old i think they already imported it in kernel,don't they?
[12:19] <evri2> fuzzy_logic
 In local retail stores.
[12:21] <fuzzy_logic> evri2: i don't think so.. i would just download those headers..
[12:21] <Pirate_Hunter> Flannel: Thanx thats the site I used last time, but how do I gain admin right to edit and save the source list
[12:21] <W8TAH> is there a navigation program similar to Delorem Street Atlas that is open source and works on linux?
[12:21] <Flannel> Pirate_Hunter: alt-f2 and in there put `gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list`
[12:21] <fuzzy_logic> evri2: i can't find any solution on this issue.. there are some people having the same problem as you, but there is no solution that i could find
[12:22] <paritosh_> what is the directory to copy theme files to?
[12:22] <dexter44> hello
[12:22] <sldkfj> yeah, out of box
[12:23] <Pirate_Hunter> Flannel: will do so if I have a problem will ask again, hopefully you'll stick around
[12:23] <sldkfj> in Windows terms: out of box means no special software to install
[12:23] <fuzzy_logic> hello dexter44
[12:24] <sldkfj> neb, and since it's an Ubuntu site, I reckon you can take their word on that same concept
 Someone in here before said they tried their card and it worked out of the box but did not say what model.
[12:25] <sffx> newb, the best and easiest card to install is one with an nvidia chipest
[12:25] <sffx> chipset*
[12:25] <DaSkreech> quit
[12:25] <sldkfj> I saw someone come it with a broadcom and they had to install a file something called bdcm-*wirecutter
 Do usb wirelss cards work?
[12:26] <sldkfj> but that file was in the repository so it was easy
[12:26] <crdlb> sldkfj, bcm43xx-fwcutter
[12:26] <[SMS] Gortok> Gents: I need to get Ubuntu to work under VPC with my 1440x900 monitor.  Currently the live CD in the VM doesn't play nicely.
[12:26] <sldkfj> newb, sure they work
 Easier than the PCI?
[12:27] <lufis> in KDE, how do I change the time format to 12 hr? The date and time format dialog doesn't allow me to change it
[12:27] <sldkfj> just go throw that list and find one that seems to be to your liking and doa search and it might be somewhere to buy
[12:27] <ShackJack> HI all - my Fiesty won't recognize the 1680x1050 resolutions of my monitor (using i810) driver, though it does show 1600x1200, 1280x1024... etc... I assume it's not detecting the right refresh rates (as I put res in screen section and they are ignored).   What's the best method for fixing - modlines or specifying 1024x768_75.00 is Display->Modes subsection?
[12:27] <Zelut> someone tell me how to UN-set a keybinding? (ie; my machine is mapping F10 to right-click and I want to de-activate it)
[12:27] <ShackJack> ... I'd settle for one resolution mode - maybe use HorizSync/VertRefresh in Mointor Section?
[12:28] <crdlb> !info 915resolution | ShackJack
[12:28] <sldkfj> newb, I would think the better cards should be around 100mps for usb
[12:28] <Pirate_Hunter> Flannel: how do I update the source list
 OK thanks I have to go and take the dog out before he takes a sh** on the floor.
 Thanks again.
[12:28] <ubotu> shackjack: 915resolution: resolution modification tool for Intel graphic chipset. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.5.2-10ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 14 kB, installed size 124 kB (Only available for i386 amd64 kfreebsd-i386 kfreebsd-amd64)

[12:28] <yurimxpxman> what program can I use to open .rar archives?
[12:29] <ShackJack> crdlb: Ah, O.K. sorry - didn't know that also applied to the i810 driver...
[12:29] <Zelut> yurimxpxman: you might need to install the rar support for archive-manager.
[12:29] <yurimxpxman> Zelut: thanks :-)
[12:29] <johnnyg> I am trying to rsync my folders/files to a usb hard drive. I am getting errors I suspect are related to characters such as spaces or '    http://pastebin.com/934903  Is there a flag that will tell rsync to escape or handle these characters?
[12:29] <Zelut> yurimxpxman: search for rar packages, and then you can open as normal in file-roller
[12:29] <Flannel> Pirate_Hunter: once you've saved it, hit 'reload' in synaptic, or `sudo apt-get update` if you're using the CLI
[12:29] <crdlb> ShackJack, all intel cards use the i810 driver
[12:30] <ShackJack> crdlb: DOH - now I feel silly :) THanks, man... my first Ubuntu intel install - done a dozen others with ATI/Nvidia :)
[12:30] <Pirate_Hunter> Flannel: kk will do so in a sec need to adjust something than i'll tell you how it goes
[12:31] <crdlb> ShackJack, if that fails, you can also try switching to the experimental modesetting driver in universe: xserver-xorg-video-intel
[12:31] <sldkfj> yurimxpxman, http://www.ubuntux.org/how-to-install-rar-archiver-rar
[12:31] <ShackJack> crdlb: I've seen lots of post suggesting generating modelines, the 1024x768_75.00 format et al... I guess 915resolution takes care of that(?)
[12:31] <crdlb> yes
[12:31] <crdlb> it's automatic
[12:31] <saffi> Trying to boot from liveCD 7.04 , fails on "can't access tty". ls /cdrom  shows nothing - empty. my DVD is Samsung ST L632M. is it rings a bell? Anyone understands that ?
[12:31] <whta> anyone have success running epsxe?
[12:32] <rb007> I have a friend who is interested in Ubuntu.  He has an Intel Mac.  Can Ubuntu run on it?  I didn't see that option in the Ubuntu downloads here: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[12:32] <[SMS] Gortok> ...
[12:32] <Zelut> rb007: install the i386 version for intel macs.  I'm running it now.
[12:32] <calc> rb007: pretty certain it will run
[12:33] <rb007> Zelut: the same version as for PC?
[12:33] <[SMS] Gortok> That's like taking the french government and putting it in America.
[12:33] <Zelut> rb007: granted it is a *little* tricky to get setup just right, but it is perfectly supported.
[12:33] <[SMS] Gortok> Totally backwards.
[12:33] <Flannel> rb007: Intel Macs are x86
[12:33] <Zelut> rb007: same version as PC, yes.
[12:33] <harisamin> guys i desperately need some help
[12:33] <rb007> Zelut: it will be installed to an external hard drive - -anything else I should know.  I don't want his first experience to be negative...
[12:33] <harisamin> i'm trying to install bunut PPC on my G4 powermac....i had it running a few days agao till i tried to upgrade to feisty which doesnt exist...so i had to instlall an older version again
[12:34] <Zelut> rb007: well grub is a little tricky because apple uses EFI instead of MBR
[12:34] <calc> rb007: if it is a recent intel mac it can run the amd64 version probably as well
[12:34] <Zelut> rb007: I suggest checking out http://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook
[12:34] <harisamin> i've been using alternate installa cds for badger, dapper, and edgy....and every single time it says debBOOTSTRAP error or soemthing when installing the base system
[12:34] <rb007> Zelut: OK... so it won't work to just install to an external hard drive
[12:34] <harisamin> someone please help me
[12:34] <harisamin> i've checked the cd verifications on other computers and they are fine
[12:34] <harisamin> please help me?
[12:35] <nex> Whats a decent CLI tool to analyze network traffic? preferably something more detailed than tcpdump
[12:35] <rb007> Zelut: thanks
[12:35] <Zelut> rb007: you can install to an external drive, you just need to most likely use rEFIt with grub installed on the external
[12:35] <Zelut> nex: wireshark?
[12:35] <nex> i need X for that
[12:35] <rb007> Zelut: OK... probably too complicated then because I won't be there and he has never used Linux
[12:35] <Zelut> nex: wireshark should have a CLI only as well.. I just used it on RHEL5 two days ago.
[12:35] <b33r> How can I use socks with wget?
[12:36] <nex> hm, ok i will have to check again then
[12:36] <harisamin> guys can anyone help me please?
[12:36] <jpsamara> Hi.. long time ubuntu user here... is junk folder on ubuntu feisty still broken ?
[12:36] <Zelut> rb007: that link is your best bet though.. best tutorial out there so far
[12:37] <jpsamara> evolution has been a broken spamassassin since ever... any solutions?
[12:37] <nex> Zelut: remember what the command was to start the CLI version of wireshark?
[12:37] <kdiggdy> Could someone help me with the avant dock?
[12:37] <nex> man wireshark tells me its a GUI tool, not CLI
[12:37] <ed1t> i just created symlink and added it to path....but when i type scala it says permission denied....its in /opt
[12:37] <debaserdz> hello, could someone help me with ssh and sftp??
[12:38] <kitfrog> debaserdz: whats the problem?
[12:38] <Flannel> harisamin: What other hardware do you have?  If the CD is good, it might be a drive error.  There are non-CD methods to install, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for a bunch of creative methods.
[12:38] <rb007> Zelut: I'm afraid that he will have too much difficulty.. it might be a bad first experience.  His one question was "is Linux still complicated?" -- I said not really... so I don't want to give him some tutorial where he has to use the terminal for the first time and get a headache...

[12:39] <ubotu> kdiggdy: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[12:39] <evri2> fuzzy_logic thx btw.I was away for 10 minutes.Do you know how to include these into kernel and recompile it?I found some documents but they are 6-7 years old.Can these be usefull?

[12:40] <kdiggdy> I cant get the applications to stay in the the dock manager they keep decepearing everytime i log in, is there a way to fix that?
[12:40] <fuzzy_logic> evri2: you can try them.. but if the documentation is 6-7 years old, i would not use the software itself as it can be that old too..

[12:41] <rb007> area51junk: thanks... maybe I will recommend that
[12:41] <Jordan_U> rb007, No, use vmware
[12:41] <ed1t> hey VMWARE
[12:41] <Jordan_U> rb007, Better Linux support, you can also boot natively
[12:41] <r4ym4n> my wireless isn't working, i have BCM4306 can anyone help me
[12:41] <rb007> Jordan_U: why?  what is the differencE?
[12:41] <foug> hi i just installed KDE and it asked me what i wanted to use as my default windows manager, i stuck with gnome. But to switch to KDE all i do it restart x right?
[12:41] <rb007> Jordan_U: I won't be there -- I can't help him set anything up.  I think Parallels sounds easier...
[12:42] <name642> Hey I just stopped in here to say thanks for this Ubuntu.  I tried linux countless times only to go back to Windows.  I am so impressed with Ubuntu, every complaint & annoyance I had is gone.  I am thinking about keepin it as my primary os
[12:42] <Jordan_U> r4ym4n, Install the package bcm43xx-fwcutter
[12:42] <r4ym4n> sorrie, im kind of new at this
[12:42] <Tmi> foug , yeah, just switch sessions between kde and gnome
[12:42] <r4ym4n> how would i install it?
[12:42] <foug> at the log in screen right?
[12:42] <r4ym4n> use the terminal?
[12:42] <NB-robo> Can any tell why I can get a mic to work?
[12:42] <Tmi> foug yupp
[12:42] <NB-robo> anyone
[12:43] <area51junk> Jordan_U: does VMWare allow file sahring between the guest OS and the HOST OS?  Parallels didn't have support for linux for that.
[12:43] <foug> Tmi: thanks
[12:43] <NB-robo> can't
[12:43] <Jordan_U> rb007, Use Synaptic ( or the terminal with apt-get )
[12:43] <levander> Has anyone else noticed that when you click on "Empty the Wastebasket" in the Gnome panel, that the trash isn't always emptied?
[12:43] <dredhammer> yes or sometimes it never shows up as being full
[12:43] <Tmi> levander yeah, sometimes some files stay while most of it is deleted for me
[12:43] <rb007> Jordan_U: the terminal is not an option... I won't be there to help... he wants graphical desktop
[12:43] <Megaqwerty> is there a way to completely remove (or at least make transparent) the gnome wallpaper? (I have a different background for each workspace set up, but it's being covered by the gnome wallpaper (setting it to no wallpaper just makes the Desktop colors show up, and setting a transparent png for the background produces the same results)
[12:43] <kitfrog> NB-robo: need more details to help you
[12:44] <harisamin> Flannel: thank you very much for answering back...i have a G4 powermac 1.28 gigs of ram....two hard drives...oen running os x...and the second one used to run ubuntu...500 mhz ...
[12:44] <Jordan_U> area51junk, I know that it does running Linux as Host and Guest, I have never actually tried Vmware for OSx but I would assume that it would also
[12:44] <dredhammer> does anyone know how to get a thumbnail preview images for some movie files like say ogg?
[12:44] <Flannel> harisamin: And you're not having any luck with the PPC CD?
[12:44] <magnethead> how do i recover ubuntu/xorg.conf? ubuntu crashed after i changed my settings to activate my TV and i get a no display detected error
[12:44] <slugicide> Ubuntu doesn't mount my  Dell E1505Ricoh Co Ltd R5C822 SD/SDIO/MMC/MS/MSPro internal card reader. in
[12:44] <dredhammer> for some strange reason nautilus does not show a preview thumbnail for my ogg movie files
[12:44] <levander> Tmi: I'm playing with it.  I think it's when you have files in the Trash that are from mounted partitions.  E.g., partitions that aren't mounted on /.
[12:44] <slugicide> oops
[12:44] <Jordan_U> slugicide, Did you make a backup copy?
[12:45] <evri2> well thank you fuzzy_logic.But i used Pardus(another Linux Distrubition made by TURKS).My cpu can use Cool and Queit there.But this dist have only 32bit kernel.Should I use 32bit Ubuntu too?Do you think this will fix it?You know there is lots of problems in 64 bit ubuntu.
[12:45] <GeekMaster1> I have a .bin and .cue image file for a movie that I would like to mount a virtual DVD ROM for in Ubuntu. Can someone help me achieve this?
[12:45] <jpsamara> how can I make my evolution learn spam? i've marked a lot of spam.... but it didn't learn anything
[12:45] <slugicide> Jordan, I just need it to be recognized.  It doesn't mount.
[12:46] <Jordan_U> slugicide, Sorry, that was for magnethead
[12:46] <dredhammer> theres a script to have virtual drives
[12:46] <slugicide> Ah, OK.
[12:46] <Jordan_U> magnethead,  Did you make a backup copy?
[12:46] <willarizona> Having a problem booting from a live 7.0.4 dvd i made. For whatever reason it just pretty much sits there after i try to start ubuntu. Black screen. Been that way for about 20 mins. I dont suppose anyone has ideas? :P
[12:46] <Tmi> levander might be, when I think of it most i delete is from my usb drive, so it might be like you say
[12:46] <Pirate_Hunter> FLannel: thanx fixed everything if you're still on
[12:46] <Meiokilo> tem brasileiro aki ?
[12:46] <magnethead> no i didn't. I knew i should have saved a copy to my jump drive but stupidly didnt
[12:46] <levander> jpsamara: I just use gmail.  It's the only spam filter that I know doesn't eat valid emails when it's looking for spam.
[12:46] <harisamin> Flannel: are u there?
[12:46] <Flannel> harisamin: I am.  Why?
[12:46] <Jordan_U> magnethead, If you know what driver it needs run: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh
[12:47] <magnethead> it's the nvidia driver
[12:47] <Pirate_Hunter> Can someone tell me how to read .daa file on unbuntu isn't there a version of Poweriso/magiciso for unbuntu?
[12:47] <harisamin> Flannel: i intiially did...like i said i was running ubuntu on this earlier...but not anymore...i tried several alternate cds and it just would stop at that same place with a debootstrap error
[12:47] <fuzzy_logic> evri2: i don't have any experience with 64-bit processors.. i'm sure 32bit will not do any harm.. only the performance is better if you would use 64bit
[12:47] <magnethead> for a nvidia geforce fx 5500
[12:47] <GeekMaster1>  I have a .bin and .cue image file for a movie that I would like to mount a virtual DVD ROM for in Ubuntu
[12:47] <levander> Tmi: you've noticed that if you click "Open" on the Wastebasket, and then click on "Empty the Wastebasket" in there, it works?
[12:47] <Jordan_U> magnethead, Ok, then when it asks be sure to choose "nvidia" ( not "nv" )
[12:47] <harisamin> Flannel: what was the page for some alternate install methods....do any of them work for PPC?
[12:47] <jpsamara> levander: yeah i use gmail too. and i know that it fetches pop from other accounts... but i use it for some mailboxes...
[12:47] <magnethead> ok
[12:47] <Tmi> levander no idae :D
[12:48] <Tmi> idea
[12:48] <Flannel> harisamin: have you tried the Desktop CD?  They all should work regardless of the platform (well, except from windows)
[12:48] <soundray> willarizona: what's the last thing it did before showing you the black screen?
[12:48] <magnethead> what else will i have to do after that?
[12:48] <Flannel> !install | harisamin
[12:48] <ubotu> harisamin: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

[12:48] <dredhammer> GeekMaster1 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=87369
[12:48] <levander> GeekMaster1: "mount -t iso9660 -o loop /mnt" is how you do it for CD's.  Figure out what filesystem for DVD's, and replace iso9660 with it.
[12:49] <magnethead> note that i have to reboot to get to terminal so it would help alot if i know everthign before rebooting
[12:49] <Jordan_U> magnethead, And I think that the nvidia drivers come with a graphical tool to set up external monitors ( and TV out ) one you are back in X try nvidia-settings ( that may not be the right command though )
[12:49] <blanky> !mountwindows

[12:49] <foug> i had beryl running under gnome, but i switched to KDE just now and beryl isn't set up. Where do i go to enable it?
[12:49] <dredhammer> for some strange reason nautilus does not show a preview thumbnail for my ogg movie files any way to enable this?
[12:49] <harisamin> Flannel: the desktop cd goes to  the circle loading cursor...i can move it and everything....but i dotn hear the startup soiund and it jsut sayts on teh brown screen...doesnt load anything else
[12:49] <Pirate_Hunter>  Can someone tell me how to read .daa file on unbuntu isn't there a version of Poweriso/magiciso for unbuntu?
[12:49] <Jordan_U> magnethead, It will just ask for what resolutions you want supported
[12:49] <magnethead> so once i run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh and choose nvidia it should reset my xorg.conf file so that i can boot again?
[12:50] <Jordan_U> magnethead, Yup
[12:50] <taa> how to get the latest verskion of emacs please ?
[12:50] <zabin> foug: i think you would have to reinstall beryl at least that would be easiest because you installed beryl before you had that differerent gdm installed...
[12:50] <magnethead> ok thanks i'll try that.
[12:50] <Jordan_U> magnethead, And if you don't even want to reboot you can just run: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[12:50] <soundray> taa: the latest packaged one you get with 'sudo apt-get install emacs-snapshot'
[12:51] <GeekMaster1> levander: I'm sorry, it's an ISO. The iso is "/media/sdb1/Videos/Movies/LOST_IN_TRANSLATION.ISO" What is the command if I want to run that movie?
[12:51] <taa> soundray ty
[12:51] <levander> GeekMaster1: i'm not sure, i don't play dvd's
[12:51] <soundray> taa: but it's pre-release. If you want the released emacs22, you have to wait for a backport or for gutsy.
[12:51] <Jordan_U> GeekMaster1, You may need to mount the iso file
[12:52] <willarizona> soundray: did you get any of my messages?
[12:52] <taa> soundray i'll install the snap-shot and remove it later
[12:52] <soundray> willarizona: no
[12:52] <GeekMaster1> jordan_u: how do I mount that ISO? What is the command?
[12:52] <Jordan_U> !iso | GeekMaster1
[12:52] <ubotu> GeekMaster1: 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.
[12:52] <soundray> taa: for me the snapshot is very stable
[12:52] <taa> soundray for me too :) ty
[12:53] <willarizona> soundray: sigh. okay, well anyway i boot from the 7.0.4 dvd. i picked the first option to start or install ubuntu. after that it says it is loading the kernel, screen goes blank, nothing. no drive activity or anything
[12:53] <harisamin> flannel u still there?
[12:53] <GeekMaster1> OK
[12:53] <soundray> willarizona: have you tried the safe graphics option?
[12:53] <GeekMaster1> Thanks
[12:53] <willarizona> soundray: i do have xp installed on this machine.  yes, same thing.. nothing happens. just a blank screen
[12:54] <Jordan_U> willarizona, Have you tried the alternate install CD?
[12:54] <nelsonuwp> does anyone know how to reset my ipod shuffle in linux, becasue I cant use the ipod updater

[12:54] <willarizona> jordan.. no i havent. what is that :P
[12:54] <Flannel> harisamin: that's odd indeed.  debboostrap error occurs when on the alt CD?
[12:54] <johnnyg> is the plus sign throwing things off?
[12:54] <IndyGunFreak> !alternate
[12:54] <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
[12:54] <Jordan_U> !alternate | willarizona
[12:54] <ubotu> willarizona: please see above
[12:54] <willarizona> jordan: i just downloaded the one from the ubuntu main page. 7/04
[12:54] <harisamin> Flannel: yes
[12:54] <willarizona> i would hardly consider myself an expert :(
[12:55] <willarizona> but i can try
[12:55] <dredhammer> for some strange reason nautilus does not show a preview thumbnail for my ogg movie files any way to enable this?
[12:55] <Jordan_U> willarizona, It also often works when the LiveCD doesn't.
[12:55] <soundray> willarizona: it's not much harder. You can always ask here for advice.
[12:55] <willarizona> is it a seperate package altogether? is it on the live cd?
[12:55] <evri2> fuzzy_logic: Last question.Is there any way to change 64bit ubuntu into 32bit?Or do i have to clean install?I have so slow connection.I don't want to download packets again and again. :)
[12:55] <Jordan_U> willarizona, Seperate CD
[12:55] <soundray> willarizona: no, it is a separate CD iso.
[12:55] <willarizona> ok i will look for it. thank you guys :)
[12:56] <Jordan_U> willarizona, It is half impossible to find now unless you know where to look ( website redesign )
[12:57] <Flannel> willarizona: There's a checkbox at the bottom of the download page.  Jordan_U.
[12:57] <nelsonuwp> is there a linux ipod updater?
[12:57] <sigterm9> evri2: I am afraid that it is not possible
[12:57] <fuzzy_logic> evri2: i'm sorry.. i don't know.. i don't have any experiences with 64bit..
[12:58] <evri2> sigterm9: Thx.  I think another day is wasted blaaa.I think i will start installing now.Thx guys
[12:58] <bung> ?? xfce
[12:58] <vzduch> Jordan_U: the alternate installer image?
[12:58] <soundray> evri2: what's the problem with your 64bit system?
[12:58] <bung> hey i see xfce4.3.99 in synaptic, but i thought 4.4 was stable already, anyone know?
[12:58] <Jordan_U> Flannel, Oh, is that new? I always just went to http://releases.ubuntu.com/
[12:58] <willarizona> thanks guys, i found it. downloading it now :)
[12:58] <mike> is it easy to get avi's to work in ubuntu?
[12:58] <mEck0> is it possible to compile c++ apps in vim/gvim?
[12:59] <sigterm9> mike3_: yes it is, with automatic installer of codecs
[12:59] <Flannel> Jordan_U: yeah, finally got around to responding to my bug report ;)
[12:59] <IndyGunFreak> mike: install w32 codecs
[12:59] <vzduch> mEck0: Vim is not a compiler, it's an editor
[12:59] <evri2> NO Cool'N Quiet Feature and I have use generic kernel not the kernel made for AMD (K8 kernel)  Soundray:
[12:59] <erat123> Does anyone know of an open source alternative to citrix or terminal services?
[12:59] <soundray> evri2: the generic kernel is just fine. ubotu knows more details:
[12:59] <bung> IndyGunFreak: whats the package name for those?
[12:59] <Flannel> evri2: There are no k8 kernels anymore.  Generic kernel has all the optomizations built in.
[12:59] <soundray> !generic > evri2
[01:00] <IndyGunFreak> !codecs | bung
[01:00] <ubotu> bung: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[01:00] <soundray> evri2: by cool'n quiet, do you mean frequency scaling?
[01:00] <sigterm9> evri2: ubuntu can use cool'n'quiet...
[01:00] <sigterm9> evri2: actually, it is nothing more than changing the clock on the fly, ubuntu uses the "dynamic clock scheme"
[01:01] <evri2> Well you know that panel apllication which show cpu's MHZ?
[01:01] <evri2> It always stuck at 1.6ghz.
[01:01] <Arenlor> A lot of times while viewing youtube on firefox it crashes the browser and I've no idea why, I've not done anything to customize it beyond adblock plus
[01:01] <evri2> I wouldn't mind if this is a normal PC but a laptop must decrease it's clock to save life time
[01:01] <soundray> evri2: there may be a process that hogs the CPU and prevents frequency scaling.
[01:02] <soundray> evri2: check by running 'top' in the terminal.
[01:02] <sigterm9> evri2: there are numerous problems with laptops, unfortunately
[01:02] <Jordan_U> Arenlor, The flash plugin is buggy, nothing possible to do about it but nag Adobe :(
[01:02] <sldkfj> evri2, sometimes if you remove that applet and add another one it responds, might jsut be buggish
[01:02] <evri2> well i use -noapic and nolapic for kernel
[01:02] <Arenlor> Jordan_U thanks, will do
[01:02] <evri2> otherwise it is normal fresh ubuntu install
[01:02] <sigterm9> evri2: maybe that is the reason
[01:02] <evri2> still no response
[01:02] <Jordan_U> evri2, That is why you have no frequency scaling then :)
[01:02] <evri2> but there is no problem deceting dual core
[01:03] <soundray> evri2: what about top output?
[01:03] <evri2> well i am not ubuntu right know for some reasons
[01:03] <evri2> :)
[01:03] <schreck> n00b question for you... I am trying to install Ubuntu Desktop Fiesty and am getting X server errors on install... "Screens found, but none have a usable configuration"...what am i doing wrong?
[01:03] <theshado1> what package has svn in it?
[01:03] <Vich> hmm
[01:03] <Flannel> theshado1: subversion
[01:03] <Jordan_U> evri2, I am pretty sure that frequency scaling is part of apic
[01:03] <soundray> theshado1: subversion
[01:03] <Vich> I have an ati radeon x800
[01:03] <soundray> Jordan_U: no, it isn't
[01:03] <soundray> Jordan_U: apic != acpi
[01:03] <evri2> Ok i will remove it
[01:04] <theshado1> Flannel: ok, but according to apt-get subversion isn't a valid package
[01:04] <Vich> and have tried using both fglrx and the default driver
[01:04] <soundray> evri2: no, the boot options aren't causing your problem.
[01:04] <Jordan_U> soundray, Oh, thanks
[01:04] <evri2> but i also want you to know that without these paramaters i couldn't install ubuntu.It always hangs.
[01:04] <Vich> the default offers direct rendering (seemingly needed for beryl)
[01:04] <Vich> whilst the other does not
[01:04] <soundray> evri2: which version of ubuntu?
[01:05] <Vich> and alternatively compiz doesn't seem to work well with the default driver that works well with beryl :S
[01:05] <evri2> 7.04  (only paramaters nolapic and noapic)  I tried 6.06 and 6.10 too.Both needs these paramaters
[01:05] <uptownben> How can I remove all the unwanted packages from my XUBUNTU install? like getting rid of all the games..
[01:05] <evri2> however there are lots and lots of problems in 6.06 and 6.10 even if i use these paramters.
[01:05] <evri2> it hangs while shutting down
[01:05] <evri2> or freeze in the middle of sth
[01:05] <vzduch> uptownben: uninstall them
[01:05] <evri2> but it is k now in 7.04
[01:05] <evri2> just this feature
[01:05] <Flannel> TheShadow: What version of ubuntu are you using?
[01:05] <evri2> cool and quiet
[01:05] <evri2> bugs me
[01:05] <dredhammer> for some strange reason nautilus does not show a preview thumbnail for my ogg movie files any way to enable this?
[01:06] <soundray> evri2: have you tried 7.04 without noapic and nolapic?
[01:06] <Jordan_U> Vich, fglrx will not work with Compiz or Beryl without XGL ( and XGL is a hack IMHO ) So I would stick to "ati"
[01:06] <uptownben> so should I click the start button then choose control panel and unistall?  ;)
[01:06] <sigterm9> evri2: I have also a very buggy laptop - Asus A6Tc - but, I solved it with different parameters
[01:06] <Vich> thanks Jordan_U
[01:06] <Jordan_U> Vich, np
[01:06] <Vich> xgl is a hack?
[01:06] <Flannel> TheShadow: your sources.list must be messed up.  Since it is, and always has been.  You don't have the main repository.
[01:06] <evri2> well
[01:06] <Vich> lol
[01:06] <uptownben> I should just use aptitude then?  or is there a ubuntu specific tool?
[01:06] <evri2> i will go and check it soundray
[01:07] <TheShadow> Flannel: ok thanks
[01:07] <Vich> I'm still a bit clueless as to what xgl and aiglx is
[01:07] <sigterm9> evri2: pci=assign-busses acpi_use_timer_override apicmaintimer are my parameters
[01:07] <schreck> I am trying to install Ubuntu Desktop Fiesty and am getting X server errors on install... "Screens found, but none have a usable configuration"...how can I fix this?
[01:07] <evri2> but i am %60-70 sure that i won't be able to open ubuntu :p
[01:07] <Flannel> uptownben: aptitude/apt-get is the ubuntu method
[01:07] <Flannel> TheShadow: if you pastebin your sources.list, I can help you figure out what's funky
[01:07] <sigterm9> evri2: try em
[01:07] <mongolai> schreck, what video card do you have?
[01:07] <soundray> evri2: I had to use these options previously, but not since 7.04
[01:07] <uptownben> Flannel: thats what I'll be doing then..  ;)
[01:07] <evri2> sigterm: thx i will try that too.Is your laptop AMD or Intel based?
[01:08] <vzduch> uptownben: either aptitude, or 'apt-get remove [--purge]  $pkgname' or 'aptitude remove $pkgname' or 'aptitude purge $pkgname' on the cmdline
[01:08] <sigterm9> AMD Turion 64x2
[01:08] <Jordan_U> Vich, Yeah, AIGLX is built into Xorg, and there is a reason why Ubuntu doesn't use XGL even though sabdafl is pushing for Desktop Effects
[01:08] <evri2> alright! :p
[01:08] <evri2> same thx i will try that too
[01:08] <sigterm9> yeah
[01:08] <evri2> so you are able to use cool and quiet?
[01:08] <uptownben> thanks again ...
[01:08] <sigterm9> yes
[01:08] <sigterm9> i am actually running at 800Mhz
[01:08] <soundray> evri2: I always have been
[01:09] <soundray> evri2: you should refer to it as frequency scaling so people know what you're talking about
[01:09] <sigterm9> evri2: so, come on and try it
[01:09] <evri2> k i will go and try them both.Thanks. soundray: and sigterm
[01:10] <mongolai> does anyone know chat the chmod +x bit does on .mp3's
[01:10] <mongolai> *what*
[01:11] <Jordan_U> mongolai, Why are you trying to make mp3's executable?
[01:11] <soundray> mongolai: the executable bit has no effect on a data file.
[01:11] <magnethead> Jordan: there is no nvidia choice on that command.
[01:12] <mongolai> I'm not trying to make it that way, I just noticed some of my files were u+x. Just curious.
[01:12] <vzduch> mongolai: do you have a FAT32 partition?
[01:12] <Jordan_U> magnethead, Oh, have you used Restricted Manager to install the proprietary nvidia drivers?
[01:12] <soundray> mongolai: they tend to be that when you've copied them from a non-Linux filesystem
[01:12] <vzduch> or a USB medium formatted w/ FAT32?
[01:12] <nblracer> im upgrading my ubuntu, and my debconf crashed on me when re configering bugzilla
[01:12] <mongolai> perhaps the files originated on a FAT-type.
[01:12] <debaserdz> couldo someone help me with a ssh and sftp problem???
[01:12] <mongolai> oh. that's interesting
[01:13] <nblracer> now the whole updating thing is hanging, what should i do?
[01:13] <vzduch> because FAT32 doesn't handle file modes, there every file is rwx
[01:13] <soundray> debaserdz: you need to say what the problem is before anyone can answer that question.
[01:13] <mongolai> Ahh. Yea that does make sense.
[01:13] <brainstrom> !ask | devaserdz
[01:13] <ubotu> devaserdz: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:13] <CaptainMorgan> anyone familiar with apc ups's ? in Prefs -> Power Management -> On Ups Power, I check off Enable Ups Discharge Alarm then I hit close.. when I reopen that same menu the option is not checked.. what's going on? I have restarted the apc service a couple of times.. but it's still unchecked whenever I look at it
[01:14] <debaserdz> soundray: its difficult to explain
[01:14] <soundray> debaserdz: try your best
[01:14] <Jordan_U> magnethead, Ok, then use "nv" for now, but if you want tv out it is most likely to work if you enable the "nvidia" driver through System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager
[01:14] <nblracer> do i have to restart and restart the downling all over again
[01:15] <m1r> evening
[01:15] <taa> Any one can explain me how to install java sun Jdk + Skd please ? i got some errors when havin both jdk and sdk
[01:15] <soundray> nblracer: no, the downloaded packages will still be in the cache.
[01:15] <Jordan_U> taa, Did you install them from the repositories?
[01:15] <taa> i've isntalled bin + jdk + sdk and i'm not able to install doc
[01:15] <soundray> nblracer: run 'dpkg --configure -a' when you've rebooted
[01:15] <magnethead> ok i chose nv since it was close and it said it overwrote, have nt booted to ubuntu to get an answer yet....will do so now
[01:16] <asdqwezxcdsf> is there anybody here who might know something about why the sound isn't working in lxDoom or games under wine?
[01:16] <taa> Jordan_U yes is did
[01:16] <taa> Jordan_U used synaptic for the installation
[01:16] <m1r> is there a posibility to read bios password with some tools  ?
[01:16] <debaserdz>  i can connect to a server in office whitout problems, but in my home i cant do it. i use sftp and ssh
[01:16] <debaserdz> the errors are:
[01:16] <nblracer> soundray i open the temernial window for the updater and did a q enter, it went to the next task
 There could be an NAT firewall or such in the way

[01:17] <soundray> debaserdz: are you the administrator of the server?
[01:17] <Jordan_U> m1r, Many manufacturers have default passwords that can be used to unlock your BIOS ( which sort of defeats the purpose but lets them deal with people complaining that they lost their password )
[01:17] <debaserdz> soundray: no
[01:18] <asdqwezxcdsf> could i even have an answer?
[01:18] <soundray> debaserdz: I think you will have to tell them about the problem
[01:18] <nj786> how can i get firefox 2 on ubuntu
[01:18] <mongolai> asdqwezxcdsf, I really don't know about wine. Do you know what sound server it's set up to use?
[01:18] <m1r> jordan_u , this is gericom materpiece, german laptop, i dont know german , so no help on goolge can be found :/
[01:18] <Jordan_U> asdqwezxcdsf, Does lxDoom use OSS ?
[01:18] <debaserdz> soundray: ok, thank you
[01:18] <soundray> asdqwezxcdsf: if you don't get an answer, that means that nobody knows.
[01:18] <liquiddoom> !firefox  | <nj786>
[01:19] <asdqwezxcdsf> ok
[01:19] <asdqwezxcdsf> sound is working everywhere else
[01:19] <nj786> liquid doom?
[01:19] <nj786> firefox 2?
[01:19] <dotpavan> debaserdz, server seems to be down (non-responsive to ping requests)
[01:19] <liquiddoom> nj786: Ubotu messed up on me
[01:19] <soundray> nj786: are you on dapper?
[01:19] <nj786> dapper?
[01:19] <debaserdz> dotpavan: the server is ficticious
[01:19] <Jordan_U> m1r, I know some german, have you just lost your bios password?
[01:19] <dotpavan> debaserdz, :D
[01:20] <mongolai> asdqwezxcdsf, have you checked the WINE FAQS and support on their website?
[01:20] <asdqwezxcdsf> i used "sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2debian-all" this to get the sound working...
[01:20] <asdqwezxcdsf> it worked
[01:20] <asdqwezxcdsf> but
[01:20] <debaserdz> dotpavan: thank you anyway
[01:20] <liquiddoom> Ugh... my server is spitting out DMA timeout errors
[01:20] <asdqwezxcdsf> after a reboot it stopped working again
[01:20] <dotpavan> debaserdz, the admin might have filtered some connections
[01:20] <liquiddoom> Is there any kernel options to disable DMA?
[01:20] <m1r> jordan_u , b4 several years, when i bought laptop , its screen got broken, and today i found replacemnt screen, so i have forgot what i put as password :/
[01:20] <asdqwezxcdsf> i tried reinstalling that but nothing
[01:21] <Paddy_EIRE> is there any good free realistic modern set fps games out there
[01:21] <debaserdz> dotpavan, it seem it
[01:21] <Paddy_EIRE> like *free
[01:21] <asdqwezxcdsf> and sound in enemy territory is not working either
[01:21] <mongolai> asdqwezxcdsf, it seems like the SDL sound layer isn't configured properly. Unfortunately I don't know much, if anything about this.
[01:21] <m1r> jordan_u , this thing have phoenix bios
[01:21] <debaserdz> dotpavan, i thought that there was a problem with my pc
[01:21] <asdqwezxcdsf> is there anybody who might know?
[01:21] <schreck> mongolai: I honestly don't know what vid card I have... prolly 5 years old
[01:22] <Jordan_U> m1r, Can you get at the cmos battery?
[01:22] <nelsonuwp> my ipod is all jacked up, anyone up for a challenge?
[01:22] <SlimeyPete> Paddy_EIRE: True Combat: Elite is free iirc
[01:22] <SlimeyPete> (small-F)
[01:22] <m1r> jordan_u , maybe if i try open it, but i have never opened laptops b4
[01:22] <Paddy_EIRE> SlimeyPete, iirc ???
[01:22] <Chicory> Are there any known errors with older Plantronics headsets and gbtsco?
[01:22] <SlimeyPete> Paddy_EIRE: if I remember correctly
[01:23] <Jordan_U> nelsonuwp, I don't know if it is possible in Linux ( maybe through wine? ) but if you have a Windows machine or a mac you can reset the firmware
[01:23] <mongolai> asdqwezxcdsf, try googling WINE sdl config and see what you come up with.
[01:23] <debaserdz> dotpavan, is possible that administrator have banned all ips except from office
[01:23] <Paddy_EIRE> how about a n64 emulator
[01:23] <asdqwezxcdsf> yea but it's not only wine
[01:23] <mongolai> then maybe someone could help you a little better
[01:23] <mongolai> *maybe*

[01:23] <debaserdz> dotpavan, i have make a vpn with my office
[01:23] <m1r> jordan_u , can i PM you ?
[01:23] <nelsonuwp> Jordan_U: just ran over to a friends house and reset the ipod with updater.. still jacked up
[01:23] <asdqwezxcdsf> some normal games aren't working either
[01:23] <dotpavan> debaserdz, possible, as someone suggested above.., some univs also employ these mechanisms
[01:23] <verb> guys I am in a real trouble ! I need help .... I have lost my Desktop env after installing a new kernel because the nvidia kernel modules were not configured for the new kernel ...I am talking to you from irssi ...what can I do? please help
[01:23] <mongolai> schreck, what does lspci say about your vid card?
[01:23] <ReServe2> I am trying to make a ghost recovery DVD, but I keep getting errors in destination. I use this command for ghost: GHOST.EXE -clone,MODE=pload,SRC=%CDROM%:\IMAGE.GHO:1,DST=1:1 What is wrong?
[01:24] <Jordan_U> m1r, http://www.uktsupport.co.uk/reference/biosp.htm
[01:24] <nelsonuwp> Jordan_U: it still plays music, i just cant delete or add to it using rythmbox or gtkpod
[01:24] <m1r> ty m8, i check
[01:24] <SlimeyPete> verb: reinstall the nvidia drivers.
[01:24] <schreck> mongolai: lspci?
[01:24] <Jordan_U> nelsonuwp, Is it formatted FAT32 or HFS+ ?
[01:24] <nelsonuwp> FAT32
[01:24] <verb> SlimeyPete:  how to do that from the command line ?
[01:25] <SlimeyPete> verb: did you install the kernel from synaptic, or did you compile it yourself?
[01:25] <mongolai> schreck, yea, it's a terminal command. from a terminal type in lscpi
[01:25] <Jordan_U> m1r, sure, but it is best to stay in the channel where more people can see your questions
[01:25] <mongolai> and look for your video card
[01:25] <soundray> ReServe2: you're asking in the wrong channel
[01:25] <verb> SlimeyPete:  I compiled it and built it as .deb and then installed it with dpkg
[01:25] <m1r> ok jordan_u
[01:25] <m1r> we stay here then :)
[01:25] <mike> ick, WoW runs sloooow through Wine
[01:25] <m1r> trying backdoor passes now
[01:26] <ReServe2> soundray; It is ubuntu related. It is ubuntu that I am trying to auto-restore.
[01:26] <SlimeyPete> verb: then you'll need to do an "apt-get install links", run links, navigate to the nvidi website and download their installer
[01:26] <nelsonuwp> Jordan_U: fat32
[01:26] <verb> SlimeyPete: can't I install the ones in the repos ?
[01:26] <SlimeyPete> verb: you'll need to use the nvidia installer rather than the ubuntu package as the package ill be configured for the official ubuntu kernel
[01:26] <mongolai> verb, can you edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and put vesa for the driver?
[01:26] <SlimeyPete> *will
[01:27] <soundray> ReServe2: try using partimage instead of commercial hoarderware ghost.
[01:27] <verb> mongolai: yes I can do that
[01:27] <SlimeyPete> verb: the nvidia installer, on the other hand, will fit the module into your custom kernel
[01:27] <SlimeyPete> at least, that's the theory ;)
[01:27] <verb> mongolai:  I can through dpkg  --reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:27] <m1r> jordan_u , nothing passed from that passes :/
[01:27] <ReServe2> soundray; I think it has something to do with ubuntu using more than one partition.
[01:28] <Jordan_U> verb, Did you compile your own kernel or did you just get a kernel upgrade from Ubuntu?
[01:28] <mongolai> verb,  did you try that already?
[01:28] <fuzzy_logic> hi people.. what do you think is the best p2p client for ubuntu?
[01:28] <bastid_raZor> every time i update nVidia kernel i have to reinstall the driver
[01:28] <ReServe2> soundray; I dont have time to start with a new system at this point.
[01:28] <verb> mongolai:  No
 Frostwire?
[01:28] <SlimeyPete> verb: before using the nvidia instaler you should "sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx"
[01:28] <mongolai> give it a shot !
[01:28] <SlimeyPete> that'll get rid of the ubuntu package
[01:28] <ReServe2> soundray; It must work with ghost.
[01:28] <fuzzy_logic> bastid_raZor: me too.. that's really stupid, i get sick and tired of it.. they should do something about that..
[01:28] <mongolai> what SlimeyPete  said^^
[01:28] <soundray> ReServe2: my prediction is you're just wasting your valuable time by asking for help with ghost here.
[01:29] <fuzzy_logic> liquiddoom: thank i will take a look at it
[01:29] <verb> SlimeyPete: Are you sure I can't continue with the ones in the repo?
[01:29] <ReServe2> soundray; where can I ask?
[01:29] <Jordan_U> verb, If you are using the generic kernel then you *should* use the ubuntu packages instead of envy, then you won't ever have kernel upgrade problems
[01:29] <slugicide> How do I launch hotkeys gui?
[01:29] <soundray> ReServe2: I don't know
[01:29] <verb> Jordan_U: no , as I said , I compiled it myself the "debian way"
[01:30] <Jordan_U> verb, Ok, missed that
[01:30] <bastid_raZor> i think soon all will be good, Since Dell no offers *buntu as an OS.. things will start to look up for linux and driver support
[01:30] <soundray> slugicide: System-Preferences-Keyboard shortcuts
[01:30] <bastid_raZor> now
[01:30] <slugicide> thanks!
[01:30] <SlimeyPete> verb: yes, certain. They will only work with the official ubuntu kernels.
[01:30] <soundray> bastid_raZor: please discuss this in #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:30] <Jordan_U> verb, There is a command for using envy from a terminal though, try "apropos envy"
[01:30] <mongolai> slugicide, is System/Preferences/Keyboard Shortcuts what you're after/
[01:30] <mongolai> soundray got to it first
[01:31] <mongolai> hehe
[01:31] <slugicide> Double thanks.
[01:31] <verb> Jordan_U:  isn't envy just for ATI cards?
[01:32] <Jordan_U> verb, No, it is actually origionaly for nvidia cards
[01:32] <mike> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o6Px_zCyAiU
[01:32] <schreck> mongolai: VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corp NV11 [GeForce 2  MX/MX 400
[01:32] <mongolai> could you all give me a quick run-down on what envy is?
[01:32] <mike> w00t got beryl workign!
[01:32] <soundray> !envy | mongolai
[01:32] <Jordan_U> verb, That is why it's called "envy" :)
[01:32] <ubotu> mongolai: envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[01:32] <mongolai> lol
[01:32] <mongolai> ok then
[01:32] <verb> Jordan_U: I see ...thanks for the help :)
[01:32] <tV2> hi
[01:33] <mongolai> schreck, if you have to edit xorg.conf use driver "nv"
[01:33] <Eltimbalino> Hi all
[01:33] <mongolai> it's a generic nvidia driver, and it will most likely work
[01:33] <schreck> how do you do that while installing?

[01:48] <taa> maximal_ /usr/share/java contains only libintl.jar  openoffice !
[01:49] <soundray> evri2: can you tell me the make and model of your laptop? Just so I know what to avoid ;)

[01:50] <evri2> HP Pavillion DV6062EA
[01:50] <soundray> evri2: you might look up installation reports on http://tuxmobil.org/mylaptops.html
[01:50] <taa> maximal_ i really need java but donne what's happening
[01:50] <mongolai> taa, look in /us/lib/jvm and usr/bin
[01:50] <kdiggdy> my frostwire loads up a gray screen everytime i start it up anyway to fix it?
[01:50] <mongolai> */usr/lib/jvm*
[01:51] <taa> mongolai (/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java only
[01:51] <Eltimbalino> Jordan, Soundray, Ubotu  Thanks for your help. The script ran fine from the terminal and I now have access to 30G instead of 2G. It was easy to follow the instructions
[01:51] <kdiggdy> !frostwire
[01:51] <ubotu> frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[01:51] <taa> mongolai i dont know why the sdk isnt installed
[01:51] <johnnyg> I am preparing to reinstall ubuntu on my T60p thinkpad. I have backed up my home directory. Does this mean that my thunderbird emails are backed up? How can I tell?
[01:51] <Flannel> taa: check out the files that the jdk installs: http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?searchmode=filelist&word=sun-java6-jdk&version=feisty&arch=i386
[01:51] <soundray> Eltimbalino: glad it worked. Thanks for the feedback.
[01:52] <mongolai> hmmm. did you use the ubuntu or deb instalation methods?
[01:52] <kdiggdy> anyone on frostwire?
[01:52] <mongolai> or something else?
[01:52] <evri2> soundray: Btw i cannot run the chess program in 3d format which came with default installation.It says install OpenGL python bindings and the GtkGLExT Python bindings.I think these are packages that i need to install.Because i have nvidia's driver from repositories.
[01:52] <Consty> dotpavan: When you download more than one file at a time it'll sometimes stall file transfers just sit there
[01:52] <dotpavan> kdiggdy, it is java based, is your java set up fine?
[01:52] <IndyGunFreak> kdiggdy: i had nothin but probs with frostwire and feisty
[01:52] <Consty> dotpavan: It's all jacked up.
[01:52] <Consty> dotpavan: Happens with 3 other friends too.. they say gFTP is worthless for bulk downloads
[01:52] <kdiggdy> java looks all fine
[01:53] <maximal_> taa: did you install sun-java6-jdk?
[01:53] <kdiggdy> and i do have frostwire in fiesty
[01:53] <taa> maximal_ yes
[01:53] <Eltimbalino> I am really happy. I almost feel like crying. I came from Amiga (land) and used to love it till my old system failed and I went Windows/Intel.
[01:53] <mongolai> one person has java fine, the other not so much...
[01:53] <IndyGunFreak> kdiggdy: have you considered just using limewire?
[01:53] <kdiggdy> it works fine when i open it the first time then i close it and \kill does not work
[01:53] <kdiggdy> limewire wont work
[01:53] <Eltimbalino> I feel almost like I am coming home again and the madness is ending
[01:53] <kdiggdy> i have amd 86_84
[01:53] <kdiggdy> they only have it for i386
[01:53] <dotpavan> Consty, you could try kde based ftp clients, like kbear
[01:53] <schreck> dotpavan: tried 2 moniters, gateway vivitron15 and my samsung 32' HD TV
[01:53] <mongolai> Eltimbalino, I agree 8D
[01:53] <IndyGunFreak> kdiggdy: ok.
[01:53] <Consty> dotpavan: I hate QT.
[01:54] <taa> maximal_ apt-get install says that i've the latest version !
[01:54] <schreck> mongolai: the prob is after I choose to install, the live cd works fine
[01:54] <norman> frostwire works fine for me on my three boxes
[01:54] <mongolai> schreck, Ok. that helps a litle
[01:54] <maximal_> taa:  go into synaptic and look for the package
[01:54] <[[Lucho32] ] > buenas noches/dias
[01:55] <maximal_> taa: then look under properties for installed files
[01:55] <soundray> evri2: try installing or reinstalling python-opengl
[01:55] <IndyGunFreak> norman: i don't know what it was., i had nothing butprobs with it under Feisty on my PC and on my laptop.\
[01:55] <dotpavan> !es>[[Lucho32] ] 
[01:55] <mongolai> schreck, what system are you running right now?
[01:55] <IndyGunFreak> i got sick of it, and went with limewire.
[01:55] <GrubChub> Howdy peeps, is there anyway to put a link to the File Browser on my desktop?
[01:56] <IndyGunFreak> GrubChub: yeah, drag the icon from your menu to your desktop
[01:56] <schreck> installing on a compaq presario
[01:56] <norman> works on my acer laptop and gateway desktops
[01:56] <mongolai> wow IndyGunFreak that's much easier than what I did!
[01:56] <IndyGunFreak> norman: go figure.. it worked great for me in Edgy, feisty though,no dice.
[01:56] <GrubChub> I'm not sure where the icon would be located Indy
[01:56] <IndyGunFreak> mongolai: lol
[01:56] <taa> maximal_ this what i'm doing, sun-java6-bin sun-java6-jre sun-java6-jdk
[01:56] <mongolai> LOL
[01:56] <[[Lucho32] ] > ok, sorry
[01:56] <taa> maximal_ all seems to be already isntalled !
[01:56] <soundray> Eltimbalino: beware, the madness may just be preparing to ambush you ;)
[01:57] <IndyGunFreak> GrubChub: not the icon, the program icon, Applications/Internet, then drag the firefox icon to your desktop
[01:57] <norman> my roblem is mplayer
[01:57] <GrubChub> it's usually launched by selecting home form places
[01:57] <maximal_> taa:  yes those are the 3 you need
[01:57] <soundray> taa: have you tried dpkg -L sun-java6-bin to see where the files are?
[01:57] <GrubChub> Hmm I don't see the file browser application stored there
[01:57] <norman> indy have mplayer working?
[01:57] <maximal_> taa:  you can see where they are installed using synaptic
[01:57] <IndyGunFreak> GrubChub: Applications MENU, Internet, then drag the firefox icon to your desktop
[01:57] <IndyGunFreak> norman: yeah
[01:58] <GrubChub> I don't need firefox on my desktop
[01:58] <schreck> mongolai: installing on a compaq presario
[01:58] <maximal_> taa:  or soundray suggestion
[01:58] <IndyGunFreak> then what do you want?
[01:58] <GrubChub> I'd like the link to the filebrowser on my desktop
[01:58] <GrubChub> like "My computer"
[01:58] <mongolai> IndyGunFreak, I think GrubChub wants Nautilus, not Firefox!
[01:58] <k-os> are there other irc clients than xchat,xchat-gnome, kirc, kopete, pidgin and bitchx?
[01:58] <IndyGunFreak> oh file browser, i thought you said web browser.
[01:58] <IndyGunFreak> my bad.
[01:58] <GrubChub> hehe
[01:58] <norman> never have mplayer working in fiesty or edgy
[01:58] <taa> maximal_ i've installed them many times, but i still cant find when jdk is installed
[01:58] <soundray> !irc > k-os, please read the private message from ubotu
[01:59] <mongolai> schreck, compaqs have a long history of petty difficulties with linux. But nothing that can't be fixed.
[01:59] <IndyGunFreak> GrubChub: well, same concept, goto the places menu, and drag "Computer" to your desktop
[01:59] <k-os> soundray, howdid that answer my question?
[01:59] <mongolai> schreck, are you on the live-cd now?
[01:59] <schreck> yes
[01:59] <GrubChub> hmm seems I get an invilid URI
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> invalid uri?
[02:00] <soundray> k-os: re-read carefully, pay special attention to the phrase "as well as IRC clients for Ubuntu..."
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> are y ou trying to create a link
[02:00] <GrubChub> Meh just to make it more familer
[02:00] <mongolai> GrubChub, hit alt+f2 then type in gconf-editor
[02:00] <maximal_> taa: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.00
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> norman: whats the prob with Mplayer
[02:01] <schreck> mongolai: yes, i have the live cd loaded
[02:01] <IndyGunFreak> mongolai: forgot about that.. :)..lol
[02:01] <IndyGunFreak> i was trying to do it the easy way
[02:01] <mongolai> schreck, just a sec, ok?
[02:01] <maximal_> taa: i've just installed it and had a look :)

[02:04] <twister> How can I maximize a window using only the keyboard?
[02:04] <mongolai> and be sure to check out the menu editor. You can add all kinds of things that arent there by default.
[02:04] <IndyGunFreak> Zack: what are you trying to compile.
[02:04] <Zack> Hey! Can someone help me install a .tar.gz source package after i have extracted it?

[02:05] <hilz> greetings. I installed x11vnc server on kubuntu 7.04. i am trying to get it to start when i boot the system, so i put the command to launch it in /etc/rc.local but it doesn't seem to work. please help!
[02:05] <twister> thanks
[02:05] <Jordan_U> Zack, Are you sure that you need to install from source?
[02:05] <schreck> yes
[02:05] <SlimeyPete> Zack: there should be a file called INSTALL or README in the package, which will tell you how
[02:05] <IndyGunFreak> Zack: it all depends on what it is.
[02:05] <Zack> IndyGunFreak: ok
[02:05] <IndyGunFreak> what are yu trying to compile?
[02:05] <mongolai> schreck, ok, can you open /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:06] <Zack> An libvisual package
[02:06] <IndyGunFreak> lol, that should be fun
[02:06] <Zack> IndyGunFreak: ok so once i have extracted what do i do?
[02:06] <IndyGunFreak> Zack: read the readme
[02:06] <Zack> there in no readme
[02:06] <Jordan_U> Zack, libvisual-0.4-0 Is available in the repos
[02:07] <IndyGunFreak> Zack: listen to Jordan_U thats in the repos, use it.
[02:07] <Zack> ok
[02:07] <schreck> mongolai: how? I dont have a boot to prompt, just to install, check cd, mem test, and boot from first hdd
[02:07] <mongolai> ohhh. ok, now I see
[02:08] <mongolai> wait, so how are you here on IRC?
[02:08] <schreck> I am on my laptop chatting
[02:08] <mongolai> is that a different computer?
[02:08] <schreck> yes
[02:08] <mongolai> Ohhh, sweet!
[02:08] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[02:08] <IndyGunFreak> he's teleporting
[02:08] <mongolai> is it just an old PC you want to spiff up a bit?
[02:09] <Zack> Jordan: once in download from synaptic does it automatically go into affect for amarok to use?
[02:09] <conn> hi, is anyone here using a dell inspiron laptop and suffering bad quality sound?
[02:09] <bruenig> laptops in general have bad quality sound
[02:09] <schreck> mongolai: yes, windoze took a dump and im sick of fixing it on that comp
[02:09] <Zack> Thanks Guys quick fix
[02:10] <schreck> you think linux on a compaq is hard, I have had to reinstall windoze about 5 times in the past year
[02:10] <mongolai> schreck, so you don't care about any data that might be on that computer? If it all gets erased it's ok?
[02:10] <conn> bruenig, let me clarify: bad quality sound in linux, good quality in XP
[02:11] <schreck> nah, i backed it all up onto usb drive using knoppix
[02:11] <mongolai> so you can erase everything and not worry?
[02:11] <schreck> yes
[02:11] <mongolai> OK! That makes things *SO* much more simple!
[02:12] <schreck> lol
[02:12] <IndyGunFreak> schreck: you'd be amazed..lol
[02:12] <dotpavan> schreck, allow install with data erased, continue, yes or no? :P
[02:12] <schreck> IndyGunFreak: had too...  I have important docs
[02:12] <IndyGunFreak> schreck: i know, but you should see the people here expecting users to "rescue" the systems they smoked by being careless
[02:12] <mongolai> Ok then, since you have nothing to worry about, go for the first install option
[02:13] <IndyGunFreak> yep, .. I think its phrased takeover an entire drive, or something like that.
[02:13] <schreck> i beleive it, I'm a programmer and I hear all sorts of customers like that
[02:13] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[02:13] <OMgPenguin> .
[02:14] <mongolai> schreck, so are you familliar with inux in general?
[02:14] <mongolai> *linux* sigh
[02:14] <schreck> a little, we use it at work and I have an ubuntu server running...
[02:14] <mongolai> well, better yet!
[02:15] <Snake007uk> hey guys, can anyone point me to a guide to get the GF6200 TC working with Compiz, everytime I try to start compiz I get a black screen, with no menu, however If I move the mouse to the menu bar at the top (which I cannot see) I start getting menu option, however screen is still black, also my monitor resolution is set to 50hz when it should be 60?
[02:16] <schreck> I hit the first option,  its doing a rundown for startup, but it does say "failed to reset NO_REBOOT
[02:16] <schreck> and now I have a black screen and nothing else
[02:16] <mongolai> was there an option for text-install?
[02:16] <schreck> everything came up as [OK] , but now I have a blank screen
[02:16] <dotpavan> Snake007uk, try compiz --replace
[02:16] <vzduch> for the resolution: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg.. use the Advanced option when it comes to configuring the screen & indicate the horizontal and vertical frequencies, that works best.. for Compiz, don't know
[02:17] <schreck> there is an option for safe graphics mode, but that is where I see the X server errors
[02:17] <Flannel> mongolai: only on the alternate CD
[02:17] <kekos> Hi, I would like to setup a home network with Ubuntu Feisty. I have 2 computers with Ubuntu installed. how can I do it? Thanks
[02:17] <george_> cups.
[02:17] <Stettin|work> I'm currently running Ubuntu 7.04 and Warcraft3 Frozen Throne. It mostly works, I can connect to cutom games fine, but if I do a reular multiplayer matchup, the game hangs at bout 95% loading. It completely locks the system can't do anything but a hard reset. Any ideas what could be wrong?
[02:17] <Stettin|work> using Wine
[02:18] <mongolai> what does F4 do on the initial screen? option VGA?
[02:18] <vzduch> george_: CUPS is for printing
[02:18] <vzduch> mongolai: yep
[02:18] <george_> ah I thought he said printing
[02:18] <george_> >.> like network printing
[02:18] <george_> nevermind
[02:18] <dotpavan> !smb > kekos
[02:19] <schreck> mongolai:
[02:19] <schreck> mongolai: I was hoping there was another way beside the text installer
[02:19] <kekos> Stettin|work : do you know where can I find a manual to make wow works?? Thanks
[02:19] <schreck> if there's not, I can d/l , burn, and use that to install
[02:20] <vzduch> schreck: I remember using the text installer w/ Hoary.. it's not that complicated :)
[02:20] <Stettin|work> kekos: no idea, I don't play wow
[02:20] <liquiddoom> !jfs
[02:20] <vzduch> way more comfy than that of Debian Woody
[02:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about jfs - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:20] <Snake007uk> dotpavan no luck, its soo bloody annoying? it flicks and start
[02:20] <liquiddoom> How is jfs support under ubuntu? It seems best for that I'm doing
[02:20] <mongolai> well, you might have to go that way, but it could also be passing certain kernel parameters... Compaqs seem to be especially vulnerable to ACPI and APIC
[02:20] <schreck> I used it when I installed ubuntu server
[02:21] <mongolai> Unfortunately I can't remember the exact commands.
[02:21] <jshriver> Greetings

[02:21] <anon2000> does anyone know of a mirror for the flashplayer9 install file? i can't seem to download it from adobe's site, either manually or through the plugin installer thing in firefox. sometimes it downloads a few hundred kilobytes and stalls or it just doesn't start at all
[02:21] <mongolai> you used this PC?
[02:21] <Flannel> anon2000: flash9 is in the repositories
[02:21] <liquiddoom> Okay then, jfs it is.
[02:21] <kekos> Stettin|work : wow = warcraft

[02:22] <george_> can anyone help me with the  Linksys WUSB54g setup for ubuntu
[02:22] <NeoGeo64> Linux is not a gaming platform.
[02:23] <raymondjtoth> any help
[02:23] <Snake007uk> dotpavan??? why do I need to know how to setup folder sharing?
[02:23] <NeoGeo64> Even Windows games that were ported to Linux to run natively have their quirks.
[02:23] <george_> I cant get it to read from the live cd, and my friend wont install without knowing it will work
[02:23] <mongolai> NeoGeo64, no, but it should be!
[02:23] <NeoGeo64> Linux is easily stressed.
[02:23] <anon2000> Flannel: that package just downloads it from adobe's server, which is my problem.. i cant seem to get it from adobe's server
[02:24] <raymondjtoth> how do i boost sigmitel sound in ubuntu ?
[02:24] <schreck> mongolai:  no, I have not used nix on that box yet
[02:24] <schreck> ...ever
[02:24] <raymondjtoth> i have a dell e1505
[02:24] <anon2000> i had this problem on a previous ubuntu installation, from what i remember i just kept retrying the download about 50 times until it worked
[02:24] <dotpavan> Snake007uk, sorry, I was confused with kekos, which graphics card is yours?
[02:24] <mongolai> schreck, private me if you would like.
[02:24] <raymondjtoth> ?
[02:24] <taa> isnt there any "clean" way to install netbeans rather then to use the .bin official binray ?
[02:25] <Snake007uk> dotpavan GF6200 TC 128mb

[02:25] <anon2000> http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz <-- can someone please see if they can download that file? and if you can can you dcc it to me?
[02:25] <jmchaffie> anyone familiar with Art of Illusion, and if so, where is a good channel? Can't find the information a few people have referred me to.
[02:26] <sigterm9> NeoGeo64: I think Tremulous is better on Linux than on Windows ;)
[02:26] <maximal_> I installed kubuntu-desktop in ubuntu.  How do I change from kdm back to gdm?  Can I just do a dpkg-reconfigure ubuntu-desktop?
[02:26] <NeoGeo64> I've ran a game that can crash the X server, and make the system so unresponsive (even though the kernel itself didn't crash) that nothing will respond and you have to do a hard restart,
[02:26] <vzduch> hmm.. could it be that flashplugin-nonfree is not cached? don't find it in /var/cache/apt/
[02:27] <raymondjtoth> any one here know how to boost a dell e1505 sigmitel sound
[02:27] <raymondjtoth> ?
[02:27] <JoeBlacken> Hi, I haven't tried any new 64-bit version of linux. Do they have the flash and java plugin working in firefox?
[02:27] <NeoGeo64> If you can't use the keyboard, you can't go to a dumb terminal and kill the processes
[02:27] <GrubChub> what's the easiest way to get ubuntu AMP(ed) up?
[02:27] <GrubChub> The linux part is done :P

[02:29] <TeraDyne> liquiddoom, that's why I use Konversation
[02:29] <liquiddoom> GrubChub: Easiest way is to check the "LAMP server" option when installing from the server edition cd
[02:29] <madman91> hey guys

[02:29] <GrubChub> x_X :P

[02:29] <madman91> I have a windows box on my network... sometimes I can see it through nautilus(with samba) sometimes I can
[02:29] <liquiddoom> GrubChub: Okay
[02:29] <madman91> tt

[02:32] <raymondjtoth> i have it stil low

[02:33] <gaten> parsek_77: dmesg
[02:33] <maximal_> raymondjtoth: yes i do to but atm i'm testing the kubuntu desktop
[02:33] <vzduch> TeraDyne: basic rule: if you look for something, 1st look it up in the repos.. if it's not there (or not the version you want) you can look elsewhere
[02:33] <TeraDyne> I'm still trying to figure out what I'm using my laptop's keyboard instead of hooking up a USB keyboard...
[02:33] <raymondjtoth> max ok
[02:33] <parsek_77> gaten: messages look different than dmesg
[02:33] <raymondjtoth> mir any other help
[02:33] <maximal_> raymondjtoth: if i was in ubuntu i'd look for you
[02:33] <gaten> parsek_77: what do you mean. /var/log/messages vs dmesg>
[02:34] <maximal_> raymondjtoth: can't you get to it from the volume applet?
[02:34] <raymondjtoth> mir any other i have sigmniel
[02:34] <raymondjtoth> max i have thqat all way up and still low
[02:34] <raymondjtoth> nothing working
[02:34] <gaten> parsek_77: dmesg is where you look for boot messages. are you looking for something specific
[02:34] <miramana> raymondjtoth: again: alsamixer
[02:35] <parsek_77> gaten: after hibernating and reboot it's taking much longer to boot,
[02:35] <raymondjtoth> mir i have it still low
[02:35] <maximal_> raymondjtoth: did you find the mixer - i seem to remember having to turn up 2 controls
[02:35] <parsek_77> gaten: I think it's still looking for some disk image
[02:35] <raymondjtoth> mir and max yes
[02:35] <raymondjtoth> i did
[02:35] <raymondjtoth> mir still low what other cna i do
[02:35] <raymondjtoth> can i do

[02:35] <bitumen2003> hello all
[02:35] <GrubChub> apache2 php5-mysql libapache2-mod-php5 mysql-server
[02:36] <alienseer23> what's the command to purge an application from my system?
[02:36] <maximal_> raymondjtoth: try turning up _all_ the output controls
[02:36] <raymondjtoth> max did
[02:36] <LadyNikon> alienseer23: uninstall an application?
[02:36] <george_> sudo apt-get autoclean too

[02:37] <source> i need some help i get an error with libdvdcss
[02:37] <george_> where are you getting the files from
[02:37] <george_> Automatix or repositories
[02:37] <uberushaximus> eww automatix
[02:37] <source> what for libdvdcss?
[02:38] <GrubChub> ohh
[02:38] <GrubChub> it's already installed :D
[02:38] <raymondjtoth> mir or max what eles is there
[02:38] <Zasch> Hello. I'm wondering if anyone can point me to a good music player that supports both playlists and Cyrillic
[02:38] <raymondjtoth> !automatx
[02:38] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about automatx - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:38] <raymondjtoth> !automatix
[02:38] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[02:38] <maximal_> raymondjtoth: sorry i'm too new to ubuntu to be able to help further
[02:38] <raymondjtoth> any one eles
[02:39] <hasan> same channel?
[02:39] <parsek_77> gaten: I also added profile to grub but then disabled it, can it cause something like this?
[02:39] <vzduch> you can install libdvdcss w/o Automatix
[02:39] <gaten> parsek_77: it might, messing w/ grub can do odd things.
[02:39] <bitumen2003> i havnt even installed ubuntu yet so i cant help any lol
[02:39] <parsek_77> gaten: any solution?
[02:39] <raymondjtoth> any one eles
[02:40] <source> Vzduch, how?
[02:40] <TeraDyne> vzduch, are you talking about the medibuntu repos?
[02:40] <vzduch> source: sudo aptitude install libdvdcss2
[02:40] <Zasch> Right now I use rhythmbox , but all of my songs in Cyrillic come out as random letters ("A.Aaniao")
[02:40] <Markeda> How does one forcefully close an unresponsive program? (I can't google it, since it's Firefox that is locked up)
[02:40] <maximal_> I installed kubuntu-desktop in ubuntu.  How do I change from kdm back to gdm?  Can I just do a dpkg-reconfigure ubuntu-desktop?
[02:40] <Flannel> maximal_: gdm, reconfigure gdm
[02:40] <miramana> Zasch: use easytag
[02:40] <gaten> parsek_77: unless you can find the error, i cant really help. like i said look for hdd problems, fsck checks and the like. also try 'dmesg|grep -i error' or something
[02:41] <bitumen2003> kill process or something i think
[02:41] <maximal_> Flannel: thx
[02:41] <parsek_77> gaten: also it takes more time to switch between ctrl+alt+F1 and ctrl+alt+F7
[02:41] <source> vzduch, i still get the same error
[02:41] <alecwhh> Hello, I'm having a serious problem. I was on my desktop, and I modified a Beryl setting (I checked something like "Force XLA" or something. Now, my desktop is frozen, and I can't boot up because Beryl starts at bootup. Now, I booted up in a terminal. How do I disable/remove Beryl (plus settings)?
[02:41] <vzduch> source: what error?
[02:41] <source> vzduch, The source seems encrypted, and can't be read. Are you trying to play an encrypted DVD without libdvdcss?
[02:41] <gaten> parsek_77: that would be video i think. got good drivers installed?
[02:42] <parsek_77> gaten: yse, working no problem
[02:42] <parsek_77> gaten: grep error gives nothing
[02:42] <gaten> parsek_77: try greping for the drives listed in 'sudo fdisk -l'
[02:43] <bitumen2003> its been years since i last played with mirc cant rember how to do anything in it lol
[02:43] <vzduch> source: no idea.. I never got any such error on any Linux system
[02:44] <source> vzduch. i did do your sudo too
[02:44] <TeraDyne> bitumen2003, you're not the only one. This is the first time in six months I've been on IRC.
[02:44] <parsek_77> gaten: how can I look at the messages while booting, instead of kubuntu progress image?
[02:44] <source> vzduch, you think if i just remove the 2 and just keep it like<  sudo aptitude install libdvdcss >
[02:44] <bitumen2003> feel like a fish out of water lol
[02:45] <alecwhh>  Hello, I'm having a serious problem. I was on my desktop, and I modified a Beryl setting (I checked something like "Force XLA" or something. Now, my desktop is frozen, and I can't boot up because Beryl starts at bootup. Now, I booted up in a terminal. How do I disable/remove Beryl (plus settings)?
 source: what error?
[02:45] <gaten> parsek_77: that i don't know
[02:45] <vzduch> parsek_77: delete 'splash' from the kernel line in GRUB
[02:45] <source> alecwhh, The source seems encrypted, and can't be read. Are you trying to play an encrypted DVD without libdvdcss?
[02:45] <vzduch> parsek_77: what's your normal screen resolution?
[02:45] <parsek_77> in kde?
[02:45] <vzduch> parsek_77: yep
[02:45] <gaten> alecwhh: can you switch to a text terminal via ctrl+f1?
[02:45] <parsek_77> 1680x1050
[02:45] <parsek_77> yes
[02:46] <Flannel> alecwhh, gaten, ctrl-alt-f1
[02:46] <gaten> yeah that one
[02:46] <parsek_77> ok, I'll reboot
[02:46] <alecwhh> gaten, no I can't.
[02:46] <vzduch> parsek_77: to my knowledge there's no corresponding VGA resolution.. so you could use 'vga=0x31a' (1280x1024)
[02:46] <alecwhh> I'm in a terminal right now though
[02:46] <parsek_77> and try to write where it stalls
[02:46] <alecwhh> I just need to remove Beryl, plus settings. I can reinstall it after.
[02:47] <bigglouie2008> aleccwhh are you using XGL session?
[02:47] <alecwhh> biggluie2008, I don't know what that is, I'm assuming not. I've somehow gotten into a screen terminal. I can only see "alec@AlecDesktop: ~$
[02:48] <parsek_77> gaten: I just chked menu.lst, it still has the profile thing, let me remove and reboot
[02:48] <miles_> Hi guys, I'd like to burn a .CDI image on a CD but _without_ losing the informations on its boot sector. It's a Dreamcast application. Any help?
[02:48] <alecwhh> isn't there like... "sudo apt-remove beryl"?
[02:48] <hasan> hi guys
[02:48] <hasan> i ve got a question
[02:48] <Tombar_uy> talking about beryl any goog tutorial out theare to install beryl on ati + kubuntu?
[02:48] <hasan> how can i enable paste protectino in konversation?
[02:49] <vzduch> paste protection?
[02:49] <hasan> i dont want what i ve paste sent automatically
[02:49] <alecwhh> How do I remove Beryl via Terminal?
[02:49] <bigglouie2008> well i was going to say restart and at login go to sessions and change it to gnome, beryl will start but it won't work, and you can get to your setttings as weel
[02:49] <hasan> when i paste some text with ctrl-v it sends immediately
[02:49] <IndyGunFreak> alecwhh: sudo apt-get remove beryl.. i do believe
[02:49] <hasan> is there a way to overcome that?
[02:50] <Tombar_uy> ctrl alt f1 to switch to a console terminal and then i guess mixing with xorg conf maybe? or apt-get remove beryl
[02:50] <IndyGunFreak> !paste | hasan
[02:50] <ubotu> hasan: 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)
[02:50] <alecwhh> ok, I tried that, and it looks like it's doing it.
[02:50] <arooni> i need to burn an .iso file to a CD (ubuntu 7.04 image).... i already have ubuntu 7.04 on this comp.... what should i do?
[02:50] <parsek_77> when I edit grub/menu.lst do I need to run update-grub?
[02:50] <IndyGunFreak> alecwhh: ok.. i think that will do it.
[02:50] <alecwhh> IndyGunFreak, did that remove settings too?
[02:50] <Tombar_uy> or you could try in a console kill all beryl and then start x again
[02:50] <IndyGunFreak> alecwhh: if it doesn't, sudo apt-get remove beyrl-settings
[02:50] <alami> hi
[02:50] <vzduch> arooni: use a CD burning programme
[02:50] <alecwhh> I mean, any configuration files and stuff.
[02:51] <arooni> vzduch: got any suggestions on name of one
[02:51] <alecwhh> so whenI reinstall, it would be a FRESH, clean install.
[02:51] <IndyGunFreak> you mean config-files unrelated to beryl?.. no it shouldn't
[02:51] <TeraDyne> arooni, try K3B
[02:51] <IndyGunFreak> oh that i don't know about.
[02:51] <alecwhh> No, I mean related to Ubuntu
[02:51] <IndyGunFreak> it shouldn't mess with Ubuntu config files, no.
[02:51] <vzduch> arooni: gnomebaker, k3b, xcdroast, wodim from cmdline.. whichever pleases you
[02:51] <alecwhh> I want to reinstall with a fresh version of Beryl
[02:51] <hasan> where is placed the content of trash bin ?
[02:52] <IndyGunFreak> xcdroast, never could get that to work.. gnomebaker r0x0rz.. ;)
[02:52] <hasan> there are the files i cant remove in it
[02:52] <hasan> how can i force it ?
[02:52] <hasan> within command line?
[02:52] <vzduch> hasan: ~/.Trash/
[02:52] <hasan> thx
[02:52] <IndyGunFreak> hasan: open a terminal, gksudo nautilus, then show hidden files, then navigate to ./trash.. and delete the files.\
[02:53] <IndyGunFreak> you'll need nautilus with root access to delete them
[02:53] <vzduch> IndyGunFreak: how about 'sudo rm -rf ~/.Trash/*'?
[02:53] <adan> mmmmmmmmmmmmm
[02:53] <Flizesh> can anyone help me out with mounting my hard drive? it says cannot mount... wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda2, missing codepage or other error
[02:54] <IndyGunFreak> vzduch: that might work.. not sure... i don't mess with terminal to much
[02:54] <vzduch> Flizesh: what filesystem?
[02:54] <Flizesh> NTFS i believe
[02:54] <IndyGunFreak> !ntfs
[02:54] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[02:55] <hasan> i use kubuntu
[02:55] <hasan> and i cant find this hidden trash in my home directory
[02:55] <madman91> i need help with this -- > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountWindowsSharesPermanently .. i dont know how to find the servername / location
[02:55] <Flizesh> ok i will read that link,, thanks
[02:55] <IndyGunFreak> hasan: i don't know about kubuntu.
[02:55] <alecwhh> HOw do I restart my PC via Terminal?
[02:55] <madman91> alecwhh: sudo shutdown -r now
[02:55] <IndyGunFreak> hasan: open a terminal, and type gksudo konquror(or however its spelled)
[02:56] <alecwhh> thanks madman.
[02:56] <IndyGunFreak> then try to find ./trash
[02:56] <bitumen2003> init 6 to restart in think
[02:56] <madman91> alecwhh: i think you can also type "reboot"
[02:56] <TeraDyne> kdesu, not gksudo
[02:56] <madman91> alecwhh: or what bitumen2003 said.. init 6
[02:56] <IndyGunFreak> gksudo should work also.
[02:56] <bitumen2003> sudo init 6
[02:56] <vzduch> hmm.. dunno where the trash is in KDE
[02:57] <IndyGunFreak> it should be in /home
[02:57] <TeraDyne> vzduch, I'm looking for it now
[02:57] <lgc> Hi. how much of a fuss is it to install and configure an internal Bluetooth card?
[02:57] <madman91> bitumen2003: i think sudo shutdown -r now is better
[02:57] <sldkfj> I do sudo reboot
[02:57] <madman91> sldkfj: yeah
[02:57] <IndyGunFreak> !bluetooth
[02:57] <ubotu> For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[02:57] <vzduch> TeraDyne: to no avail unfortunately, I'm afraid :<
[02:57] <sigterm9> vzduch: can i call u "air"?
[02:57] <IndyGunFreak> sudo reboot?..lol, never heard of that one
[02:57] <vzduch> sigterm9: no you can't :D
[02:57] <sldkfj> too easy!!  a no-brainer
[02:57] <lgc> IndyGunFreak, lemme check...
[02:58] <alecwhh> If I launch Beryl-settings, will that ALSO launch Beryl-manager?
[02:58] <sigterm9> proc ne?
[02:58] <madman91> IndyGunFreak: no, I think its just "reboot" .. it worked in my fedora days
[02:58] <TeraDyne> hasan, vzduch, It should be in ~/local/share/Trash
[02:58] <IndyGunFreak> madman91: probably
[02:58] <TeraDyne> ~/.local/share/Trash
[02:58] <madman91> how can i view my windows network?
[02:58] <TeraDyne> sorry
[02:58] <madman91> samba fails to show my windows network
[02:58] <IndyGunFreak> wonder why they hid trash there.
[02:59] <TeraDyne> it's split into two folders, files and info
[02:59] <sldkfj> a person could always do a file search in the home directory
[02:59] <Flizesh> well, it seems no matter what i try to do, using script, fdisk -l, it just seems to return this msg: "Unable to seek on /dev/sda"
[02:59] <madman91> ok
[03:00] <madman91> WHEN i view my windows network (with samba) it sometimes shows up, and sometimes doesnt,... so i followed this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountWindowsSharesPermanently .. but i do not know how to find my servername

[03:01] <sldkfj> bronze, hmm, beryl or compiz?
[03:01] <IndyGunFreak> anon2000: well, i'd do what it says
[03:01] <madman91> beryl owns compiz
[03:01] <bronze> sldkfj, yes.

[03:01] <axolx> hi guys -- i have a monitor/card that supports 1680x1050. i have that resolution in my xorg.conf, but when i start X, the available resolutions go only to 1280x1024. any ideas? i'm running ETCH and randr is supported by my driver
[03:01] <sldkfj> visit #beryl or #compiz for help, ask for crdlb he is the best bet
[03:01] <Flannel> !automatix | fpscracker
[03:01] <ubotu> fpscracker: 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
[03:01] <anon2000> IndyGunFreak: i did, but it just tries to resume installing the flashplugin which WON'T install so i can't get anywhere
[03:01] <axolx> sorry not Etch, edgy
[03:01] <madman91> axolx: do you run nvidia drivers?
[03:01] <anon2000> is there a way to just make it stop trying to install that
[03:01] <Flannel> fpscracker: don't use automatix for anything.
[03:01] <axolx> madman91: no.
[03:02] <gdb> Is anyone here using freenx on dapper with a Windows Vista system?
[03:02] <fpscracker> ok thanks

[03:06] <madman91> arrozconevan: or
[03:06] <anon2000> so is there a way to make synaptic ignore packages that failed to install?!
[03:06] <madman91> arrozconevan: gksudo nautilus --> find the file.. right click.. and edit properties --> permissions
[03:06] <Flannel> arrozconevan, Which file?  DONT do that.  Which file?

[03:07] <Flannel> arrozconevan: right.  You don't need to change the permissions.  You just need to open the editor with sudo.  alt-f2 then `gksu gedit /etc/apt/soruces.list`
[03:07] <arrozconevan> o ok cool thanks :)
[03:07] <Flannel> arrozconevan: er, sources.list.  Or in a terminal: `sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list`

[03:10] <parsek_77> after booting and running kde, if I look at ctrl+alt+F1 it gives these messages, http://pastebin.ca/586791  but I am not resuming from hibernated state, how to fix this?
[03:10] <vzduch> pkundu: some terminals can only be configured directly in their config files; try ~/.aterm/
[03:10] <j1tters> vzduch thats what i thought. but its dual 1600x1200 and it should be fine.
[03:11] <LuisBG> sldkfj, yes I use feisty
[03:11] <vzduch> I never messed w/ 3D desktops.. and I probably never will, I don't see a use to them
[03:11] <j1tters> i know the monitors support it. so im at a lose

[03:13] <sldkfj> j1tters, you need to do another reconfigure on your screen resolution with a command:      dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[03:13] <jrib> pkundu: you can use .Xresources for the font too I believe
[03:13] <xenex> How do I mount .bin/.cue files?
[03:13] <j1tters> sldkfj thats gonna blow up my twinview display isnt int.
[03:14] <jrib> xenex: convert it to an iso using bchunk first
[03:14] <jrib> !iso > xenex (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:14] <pkundu> jrib any idea what should be the line
[03:14] <xenex> jrib, thanks
[03:14] <vzduch> sldkfj: what does the -phigh switch do?
[03:14] <jrib> pkundu: not offhand, but if you google for an example .Xresources you should find it.  Or check the man page for aterm
[03:14] <sldkfj> j1tters, not actually,  have you updated your driver?

[03:15] <raintree> Help please :(  I'm new to Ubuntu and i'm having a horrible time setting up wireless.  Whenever I try to launch ndisgtk it quits after briefly showign the window for about 1 second, then it shuts down.  It used to work.  I think i may have selected the wrong driver or something... any ideas? :(
[03:15] <pkundu> jrib: I am trying. thanks
[03:15] <MISTERTibbs> i seem to have lost my xchat menu bar.  anyone know how to reset?  Thanks in advance.
[03:15] <MISTERTibbs> raintree, i might be able to help
[03:15] <jrib> pkundu: this one has an example line: http://linuxreviews.org/software/x11-terms/aterm/
[03:15] <MISTERTibbs> raintree, why r u using ndisgtk?
[03:15] <vzduch> MISTERTibbs: use a decent client, man :D
[03:16] <sldkfj> vzduch,  that command can be verified in first several lines in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:16] <raintree> i'm using ndisgtk because that's what automatix set up for me.  It used to work, now it won't start.
[03:16] <Cool_Nick> trying to compile programs with ubuntu server...this does not do enough:  apt-get install build-essential
[03:16] <MISTERTibbs> vzduch, i gots what i gots.  xchat has a simple command structure that i accientally used to kill my menu
[03:16] <vzduch> o0
[03:16] <MISTERTibbs> raintree, so your wireless did work at some point?
[03:16] <flemnos> MISTERTibbs, the menubar that comes back when you hit Ctrl-F9?
[03:16] <sldkfj> menu bar is ctrl f9
[03:17] <sldkfj> mrtibbs

[03:17] <pkundu> jrib: thank you
[03:17] <`eric-> hey guys, question, i just insatlled beryl, seems to work fine.. but the "TITLE BAR" on all my windows went away
[03:17] <`eric-> no way to minimize, move or anything
[03:17] <raintree> yes and no, it works flaky with the fw-cutter hack, but it's not reliable enough so now I want to try ndiswrapper.  I liked the idea of being able to do it graphically, but now the graphical tool won't even start.  The graphical tool (ndisgtk) used to work, but I think I tried to load the wrong driver.. how do i clean that up?
[03:17] <`eric-> title bar is just gone
[03:17] <arrozconevan> wait will this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EasyCam work with feisty fawn?
[03:18] <Cool_Nick> could someone tellme the command to use on ubuntu to install librarys etc... to compile programs
[03:18] <MISTERTibbs> raintree, by chance, do u have a broadcom wireless??

[03:19] <`eric-> sldkfj: yes!
[03:19] <Cool_Nick> thank you
[03:19] <`eric-> Tortri: how do i make sure it's using emerld?
[03:19] <landley> Building the current qemu snapshot makes Ubuntu give assertions.
[03:19] <`eric-> it's selected on emerald
[03:19] <landley> Should I be worried?
[03:19] <c_lisp> hi im having a problem with ubuntu when I login to gnome nm-applet is running and saying it trying to login to the network but never connect but im on the network gaim also not thinking im online

[03:20] <jrib> `eric-: try restarting the window manager (through the menu)

[03:21] <dang`r`us> so ... is this for servers or for desktops? 8)
[03:21] <dang`r`us> (I'd like to have a xen suite suitable for servers)
[03:21] <raintree> Ok, but will the script explain why ndisgtk suddenly stopped working?   I think I made a mess installing the wrong drivers and I'd like to know how to clean that up

[03:27] <bruenig> generic
[03:27] <raintree> where can i see the log of an application that is quiting unexpectedly with no message.  ndisgtk just starts then shuts down after about 1 second, i have no idea why.
[03:27] <dang`r`us> even though it didn't tell me what the patch says now
[03:27] <joe4444> g4lv4tr0n_: there's no need to use the 64-bit edition for a desktop machine
[03:27] <|Porsche> seems like that defeats the purpose but whatever
[03:27] <kazol> Is it worth folding on a PIV 1.3Ghz 256MB?

[03:27] <bruenig> raintree, run it from the terminal
[03:27] <MISTERTibbs> raintree, i can email it
[03:27] <jrib> dang`r`us: click on the patch?
[03:27] <bruenig> |Porsche, it doesn't defeat the purpose, the purpose of the bot is not to have people throw stuff at it in the channel and spam up the channel

[03:31] <dang`r`us> oscurochu_, probably joe4444 has the better tip

[03:31] <EADG> fpscracker: in a terminal type 'sudo apt-get install frostwire'
[03:31] <ikasti> i have a dell computer with the media buttons on the very front.  my volume mute, upvolume, and down volume all seem to have control of only PART of the total volume....any ideas on how to set it to completely control the volume?
[03:31] <reed026> hmm Does anyone know how to uninstall programs through terminal?
[03:31] <dang`r`us> oscurochu_, because smb:// should do the listing and also the browsing

[03:32] <bastid_raZor> reed026 apt-get remove

[03:43] <[SMS] Gortok> So how does one navigate a gui in linux without a mouse?
[03:44] <joe4444> oscurochu_: that i've never done... but you should have just asked how to install a network printer :)

[03:44] <oscurochu_> joe4444: but i wanted to learn the other stuff at the same time.

[03:44] <Flannel> wastro: that depends on how you're using it.  The man page has an example config file
[03:44] <joe4444> when i change settings using gconf, do i have to restart X for those settings to take effect?  specifically, settings that affect the panel

[03:53] <Nutubuntu> Hello, I have a question about Sun's Java and the Athlon A64 X2. I keep hearing that the Athlon isn't supported, but I can't find anything about that in Google. Can someone clear this up for me?
[03:54] <den_santiago> does anyone knows of a guide to install lotus notes client on Ubuntu 6.06 LTS?
[03:54] <Pelo> den_santiago, is there a linux version ?
[03:54] <den_santiago> my mail server is a ibm lotus domino server
[03:55] <ethereality> is there a way to backup my song ratings from amarok?
[03:55] <den_santiago> pelo so far its still in beta?
[03:55] <`eric-> !beryl
[03:55] <ubotu> beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[03:55] <Flannel> Nutubuntu: there's no reason why athlon wouldn't be supported.  If anything, it'd be 64bit that wasn't supported.  But it is.
[03:55] <Pelo> den_santiago, I'd look for a lotus note channel
[03:55] <bobbob> hey im having a problem
[03:55] <bobbob> when i try to install ubuntu i get that the xserver fails
[03:55] <bobbob> i tried to configure it in the terminal
[03:55] <bobbob> but it didnt work
[03:56] <Pelo> bobbob,  do you get as far as the boot menu ?
[03:56] <bobbob> i get to the
[03:56] <den_santiago> pelo is it on the irc channer?
[03:56] <den_santiago> channel?
[03:56] <bobbob> like screen were it says start or install
[03:56] <bobbob> start in graphics safe
[03:56] <Pelo> den_santiago, I don't know of one ,  I'm suggesting you look for one
[03:56] <Nutubuntu> Flannel, t/y (yet again) ... with an A64 X2, should I be running Feisty for the 64? I've read that some apps (Firefox, for example) aren't available in 64bit versions. I'm feeling confused ...
[03:56] <Pelo> bobbob,  what's your video card ?
[03:56] <mrynit> does anyone know what SCIM is? wiil it allow me to use japanese characters on a keyboard?
[03:56] <bobbob> i have two... one is onboard and i think its broke so i have another .. and its a nvidia geforce fx 5200
[03:57] <lo4fer> Nutubuntu: i think the hangup for most people trying to use the 64 bit version is inability to use flash
[03:57] <bobbob> like on the error it says somehting about xserver fail .. it didnt install and
[03:57] <bobbob> no screens found
[03:57] <Pelo> bobbob,   if you only have access to the nvidia card you'll need to use the alternate install cd to install,  and then you can get the nvidia drivers
[03:57] <wastro> how do I verify that my mpd can play the internet stream?
[03:57] <Pelo> den_santiago,  I donT' take pravite msg , please talk to me in the channel
[03:57] <Nutubuntu> lo4fer, the 64bit ver of Firefox? or Feisty?
[03:57] <bobbob> wait so i do what
[03:58] <Pelo> bobbob,   if you only have access to the nvidia card you'll need to use the alternate install cd to install,  and then you can get the nvidia drivers
[03:58] <bobbob> what is the alternate install cd
[03:58] <Flannel> Nutubuntu: firefox?  That's hogwash.  *everything* is available for 64bit that can be.  The only things that aren't are closed source things that haven't been released for 64bit.  Flash is really one of the few that isn't available natively for 64bit (but you can get it working with a little massaging)
[03:58] <vzduch> !alternate
[03:58] <ubotu> The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[03:58] <Pelo> !alternate | bobbob
[03:58] <ubotu> bobbob: please see above
[03:58] <bobbob> is it hard?
[03:58] <bobbob> like
[03:58] <Nutubuntu> Flannel, sounds as if I should be running a 64bit version of the OS then?
[03:58] <thesource> no
[03:58] <bobbob> i tried to do the configure of xserver
[03:58] <bobbob> that was hard
[03:59] <thesource> i install in from live cd took like 5 min
[03:59] <bobbob> it was asking for the bus numbers of the graphics card
[03:59] <bobbob> and stuff
[03:59] <vzduch> it wasn't hard on Hoary, can'
[03:59] <vzduch> t have gotten harder, I guess :>
[03:59] <thesource> lol
[03:59] <Pelo> bobbob,  it's just a text based installer , not that hard , you won'T be able to configure xserver for the installation
[03:59] <bobbob> so were can i d/l the alternate cd
[03:59] <Nutubuntu> I'm not terribly concerned about Flash (and pretty confident I can get it working, as long as that's do-able)
[03:59] <thesource> live cd work good for me cose i dont know about ubuntu till i got it loadin
[03:59] <vzduch> bobbob: what you heard was perhaps the installer of Debian Woody
[03:59] <lo4fer> what's the syntax for sicing ubotu on somebody?
[03:59] <vzduch> or FreeBSD 4.x
[03:59] <lo4fer> bobbob | !enter
[04:00] <lo4fer> meh

[04:00] <lo4fer> ha
[04:00] <Flannel> Nutubuntu: you're welcome to.  32 works just as well.
[04:00] <bobbob> were can i find the alter cd
[04:00] <bobbob> sorry pelo
[04:00] <Nutubuntu> bobbob, I installed from the alt CD (the minimal CD to be accurate, which downloads packages from the 'net). It was fine, and not hard at all.

[04:07] <Nutubuntu> Pelo, thanks. I don't feel one way or the other about Java, but I have some things that require it, so ...
[04:07] <Pelo> mrynit, which steps would you like to skip ?
[04:07] <thesource> mrynit: why would u want too
[04:07] <mrynit> migrate documents
[04:07] <Pelo> Nutubuntu,  I beleive you can have both
[04:08] <mrynit> cause its a bad harddrive and its scanning and freezeing
[04:08] <Nutubuntu> Pelo, t/y again. :)
[04:08] <schreck> Problem installing ubuntu... Trying to install and the PC hangs before getting to LiveCD...can anyone help?
[04:08] <MISTERTibbs> mrynit, hard drives r cheap to replace
[04:08] <magnethead> anybody know how I can add a 1280x1024 resolution in ubuntu so my 19" flatpanel will quit screaming at me that it's out of native resolution? im stuck at 1024x768
[04:08] <Pelo> mrynit,  don't you get the option to scan or not to scan ?
[04:08] <mrynit> is there a way i can install with out doing the gui thro live cd
[04:08] <Nutubuntu> mrynit, you can do the alternate install; it's text-based
[04:08] <mrynit> no it scanns first then asks me to import or not
[04:09] <vzduch> mrynit: the alternate CD
[04:09] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, you can add it by editing "/etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:09] <Pelo> mrynit,  thre is the alternate install cd  it is a text based installer
[04:09] <mrynit> i have the regular cd
[04:09] <Pelo> mrynit,  you can download the alternate install cd,
[04:09] <magnethead> that's what i thought
[04:09] <mrynit> so i have to burn another cd?
[04:09] <taa> how to mount iso dvd ?
[04:09] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:09] <Nutubuntu> mrynit, yeah
[04:09] <Pelo> mrynit, only if you want to skip the import thingy apparently
[04:10] <Pelo> !iso | taa
[04:10] <ubotu> taa: 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.
[04:10] <magnethead> i have it in editor, but i've already editted it, saved it while logged as root user, restarted X, and restarted the whole computer

[04:10] <taa> Pelo mounting dvd iso is the same as cd ?
[04:11] <Pelo> taa,  should be
[04:11] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, you really should not use the root user account for things like that
[04:11] <magnethead> it wont let me save it otherwise
[04:11] <Pelo> magnethead, make sure you hve the proper syntax
[04:11] <magnethead> it marks it a read only file
[04:11] <Pelo> magnethead, sudo gedit ....
[04:11] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:12] <Nutubuntu> magnethead, gksudo and sudo (sudo is only for text-based apps) give you temporary root rights, without becoming root.
[04:12] <Pelo> later
[04:12] <magnethead> gksudo gedit /etc/x11/xorg.conf
[04:12] <magnethead>  doesnt work
[04:13] <magnethead> Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.
[04:13] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, exactly what are you doing with that command
[04:14] <twocarlo_> .
[04:14] <magnethead> i just entered it
[04:14] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, it should prompt you for a password then open the file for you

[04:14] <sldkfj> :{
[04:15] <sldkfj> :P even
[04:15] <magnethead> it prompts the password but opens gedit as a blank doc

[04:15] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, not for xorg.conf though
[04:16] <Flannel> magnethead: Use gksu instead of gksudo.  the gksu is parsing the path.  With that editor, you can also always just go file > open and open the file too.
[04:17] <magnethead> captializing the X makes it say opening file than goes blank
[04:18] <invisiblepinkuni> magnethead: after opening gedit with gksudo, use file > open like Flannel said to get to /etc/x11/Xorg.conf
[04:18] <magnethead> gksu does sane as what i said

[04:26] <dan40> jrib: are those different packages? Or everything I need to install?
[04:26] <wols_> magnethead: put it succinctly: unless you do things debconf can't, like enabling tv out or configuring dualhead: don't fsck with an editor in xorg.conf
[04:26] <jrib> dan40: different, though the first two are related
[04:26] <lo4fe1> is there a shortcut to getting someone's name into your message field for direct address or do you all just type it out

[04:28] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:28] <lo4fe1> jrib: great just like in linux. nice.
[04:28] <wols_> magnethead: don't edit xorg.conf unless you really know what you are doing. mv xorg.conf to .old and run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg again
[04:28] <jrib> dan40: I like using btlaunchmanycurses, I just drop a .torrent file in the directory and it handles it.  But rtorrent is nice too.  Try them both .  Note these are all terminal based
[04:28] <magnethead> earlier today i ran dpgk-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh earlier today..before i did that i had a 1280 option..after i didnt
[04:29] <dan40> jrib: terminal based? Oh well I guess that would make them small
[04:29] <magnethead> it didnt have an nvidia opion so i chose nv
[04:29] <wols_> why did you run it -phigh?
[04:29] <magnethead> im not sure, i was told to
[04:29] <wols_> how did you install nvidia drivers?
[04:29] <magnethead> because i had to recover my xorg file since i hadnt backed it up pre-modification
[04:29] <devnull> hmm is it ok to use the drivers directly from ati?
[04:30] <wols_> if you are not sure: read docs about it. manpages. NEVER ever do something someone tells you on irc when you are not sure
[04:30] <magnethead> i didn't- i chose nv
[04:30] <magnethead> because it didnt list nvidia
[04:30] <jrib> dan40: gui, there's the gnome bittorrent client and deluge (not in repos) too that I know of
[04:30] <wols_> do you have nvidia installed?
[04:30] <devnull> as I have a persistant issue w/ my card that seems to only allow 8.33.6 drivers to work properly.
[04:30] <Stettin|work> can someone point me to a guide to connect to a windows server share from ubuntu? I can browse the list of domains/servers but when I try to browse a server I get "Sorry, couldn't display all the contents" I'm assuming I need to input my domain credentials somewhere
[04:30] <magnethead> no, im still on nv
[04:30] <HardDisk> evening, having a strange problem, realplayer firefox plugin decided to stop working, removed and reinstalled realplayer whenever I try to click on preferences it crashes.
[04:30] <wols_> devnull: what issue? what card?
[04:30] <Tom47> i am installing java.doc and receved a message saying it doesn't contain the documentation but to download it from elsewhere into /tm and make the file owned by root.root   now root i am familiar with but root.root?
[04:30] <magnethead> i ran the drivers manual to get nvidia but still didnt make a bit of difference
[04:30] <wols_> devnull: you can use them, but then ati needs to support you. not #ubuntu imho
[04:31] <wols_> magnethead: what "drivers manual"?
[04:31] <dan40> I can't find any of those you mentioned in the repos

[04:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about any - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:32] <jrib> dan40: you probably already have btlaunchmanycurses,  try 'man btlaunchmanycurses'.  And rtorrent is in universe

[04:32] <wols_> !anyone | jeffvr
[04:32] <ubotu> jeffvr: 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?
[04:32] <craigbass1976> bkingx, what?  Is it running, or you can't even get it to start?
[04:32] <HardDisk> realplayer firefox plugin decided to stop working, removed and reinstalled realplayer whenever I try to click on preferences it crashes.
[04:32] <bkingx> craigbass1976: right, can't get it to start
[04:32] <Tom47> what is root.root - how does it relate to root?
[04:32] <oni> so what does it mean when ubuntu hard locks and the keyboard LED's flash
[04:32] <magnethead> wols- did you see what i typed?
[04:32] <MadEchidna> does anyone know how I can get that cool mousedriven bootscreen that Fedora uses on Ubuntu?
[04:32] <jrib> Tom47: context?
[04:32] <Stettin|work> craigbass: I don't see any contents at all.. i'll check in #samba
[04:32] <craigbass1976> bkingx, what's your error log say?
[04:33] <bkingx> craigbass1976: where is the error log?
[04:33] <jeffvr> WHen the i2o driver loads I get an error message  iop0: DMA / IO allocation for I2O controller failed
[04:33] <craigbass1976> Stettin|work, is norton running?
[04:33] <eyemean> hi i installed parallels on ubuntu, but cant find it anywhere
[04:33] <wols_> devnull: well you have to fix your problem with fglrx then. cause sooner or later a new X version will come out and then your 8.33.x drivers simply won't work... so either fix it or ati. your choice
[04:33] <Tom47> jrib in the context of installing java doc package ...
[04:33] <jrib> Tom47: owner: root, group: root
[04:33] <dan40> jrib: I am using Xubuntu...I wonder if they are not in the install
[04:33] <jrib> dan40: have you enabled universe?
[04:33] <Tom47> jrib ok ty
[04:33] <Stettin|work> craigbass: norton? i'm using ubuntu here, not sure what's running on the file server
[04:33] <dan40> nope ..don't know what that is...sorry
[04:34] <Flannel> dan40: All of those programs are installed by the 'bittornado' package.
[04:34] <jrib> !universe > dan40 (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:34] <Anthology> any suggestions for a good autoclick script? KAutoClick only allows me to set it to click every 99999 ms at max
[04:34] <devnull> wols_: tb brutally honest, it is not MY issue to fix with fglrx. ATI is the responsible party.
[04:34] <jeffvr> I checked the lsmod and and /dev/ folders and I can't find the device entry for the raid controller.  I've found others having similar problems with 2.6.20 and discuss blacklisting certain i2o drivers.  Is this the route I need to take?
[04:34] <Anthology> script == program :P
[04:34] <Flannel> dan40: and you don't need universe.  They're in main.  (and on a related note, xubuntu, kubuntu, and ubuntu all use the same repositories)
[04:34] <sigterm9> wow, reniced X is such a nice hack with SMP
[04:34] <Tom47> jrib is it meaningful really to say a file should be owned by root.root?  how does this differ from saying owned by root?
[04:34] <wols_> devnull: good luck with that attitude
[04:34] <jrib> Tom47: it means the group is root too...
[04:34] <dan40> flannel  : thanks
[04:35] <wastedfluid> I've done research, but I've come up empty.  My laptop will hibernate on a fresh boot.. but if you try to hibernate anytime after the first time you did hibernate - it won't do it.  the screen goes black(few moments later, it shows login box.. but keyboard is disabled..) and the power light on my laptop goes off, but the laptop is still on.  Any idea? (7.04)
[04:35] <devnull> wols_: Your telling me to fix a problem that is caused by a bug in the driver and saying I have an attitude...
[04:35] <magnethead> I've ran with and without nvidia enabled in restricted drivers manager but either way 1280 doesnt show
[04:35] <oni> how can I tell if I'm running the 64 bit edition of ubuntu?
[04:35] <Tom47> jrib ok ty
[04:35] <jrib> Tom47: like with chgrp
[04:35] <Tom47> yes
[04:36] <jrib> Flannel: rtorrent is in universe
[04:36] <wols_> devnull: there are tons of people using fglrx in x850xt. and even if it might be the responsibility (just might): in a perfect world ati would then fix it, but: do you think this is a perfect world where everything is as it should be?
[04:36] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, have you tried removing the resolutions you dont want? keep in mind you may need to put them back in if it does not work
[04:36] <eyemean> is there a different rm i should go to for parallels help?
[04:36] <wols_> if so, I have a beach property at Ayers Rock and in FLorida to sell to you
[04:36] <jrib> oni: uname -a
[04:36] <yurimxpxman> does anybody know how to stop libcurl from printing the result to the terminal?
[04:37] <magnethead> all i did was insert "1280x1024" in front of the string
[04:37] <jrib> yurimxpxman: redirect it to /dev/null instead
[04:37] <devnull> wols_: And if you were a little more informed, you would know how the ati release cycle is and how behind they are on current issues.
[04:37] <wols_> magnethead: tell us your monitor specs and paste xorg.conf and xorg.logs
[04:37] <oni> jrib, thanks... don't suppose you would know the meaning of a system hard lock with flashing keyboard LEDs?
[04:37] <Flannel> jrib: right, but the others (all the programs from bittornado) are in main.
[04:37] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, well wont hurt to try
[04:37] <yurimxpxman> jrib: how do I do that within the source code?
[04:37] <HardDisk> realplayer firefox plugin decided to stop working, removed and reinstalled realplayer whenever I try to click on preferences it crashes.
[04:37] <jrib> Flannel: true, but aren't they installed by default?
[04:37] <wols_> devnull: how old is your card?
[04:37] <jrib> yurimxpxman: heh, misread, never mind :)
[04:37] <magnethead> monitor is LG flatron 19" DFC LCD flatpanel
[04:37] <wastedfluid> I've done research, but I've come up empty.  My laptop will hibernate on a fresh boot.. but if you try to hibernate anytime after the first time you did hibernate - it won't do it.  the screen goes black(few moments later, it shows login box.. but keyboard is disabled..) and the power light on my laptop goes off, but the laptop is still on.  Any idea? (7.04)
[04:38] <devnull> x850 was 2005 iirc, it was a bug introduced in 8.34 driver release.
[04:38] <magnethead> graphics card it BFG/nvidia geforce FX 5500OC
[04:38] <wols_> 2005 aka ancient
[04:38] <sldkfj> Times up for my shift.  later.
[04:38] <jeffvr> ubotu: Was that question specific enough or do I need to give a bigger picture and than get specific?
[04:39] <lo4fer> jeffvr: ubotu is a bot
[04:39] <Flannel> jrib: only in Ubuntu, Xubuntu-D apparently doesn't depend on them.
[04:39] <magnethead> xorg.conf: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26962/
[04:39] <jeffvr> lo4fer: Sorry I'm new to IRC.  What is a bot?
[04:40] <wastedfluid> jeffvr; a bot is a programmed irc client, usually.
[04:40] <lo4fer> jeffvr: it's a script
[04:40] <lo4fer> !ubotu
[04:40] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[04:40] <wastedfluid> It's something someone made to do a certain thing.
[04:40] <rockets> When I log into gnome, I'm getting Error: Failed to initialize HAL
[04:40] <rockets> Any ideas?
[04:41] <jeffvr> Ahh. OK
[04:41] <magnethead> I do not have an xorg.log file
[04:41] <magnethead> get all that Wols?
[04:42] <craigbass1976> Stettin|work, The file server is a windows box, or linux?
[04:42] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, I once removed the other resolutions from a friends install and it worked straight away
[04:42] <tehpunkprodigy> is anybody familar with squid here?
[04:42] <magnethead> so just pull all of them but 1024 and 1280?
[04:42] <Nutubuntu> !anyone
[04:42] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:43] <wols_> magnethead: you can only get 1024x768 max?
[04:43] <jeffvr> wols: Was my question specific enough?
[04:43] <magnethead> yea
[04:43] <magnethead> i have 1280 in the file but not on the prompt, even after restart
[04:43] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, no just leave 1280 x 1024
[04:43] <magnethead> 1024 is quite out of shape on a 19" flatpanel to say the least
[04:43] <wols_> jeffvr: yes. but tbh I'd say google for the error. like that blacklisting advice. your problem is not directly ubuntu specific so foearching simply for "Linux" will be afvised
[04:44] <wols_> chances are no one in heve even has that hardware, even if there are 1000+ people
[04:44] <wols_> magnethead: all of them have that res unless they are widescreen
[04:44] <rockets> I keep getting "Error Failed to Initialize HAL" and now my camera wont import photos
[04:44] <jeffvr> OK
[04:45] <wols_> magnethead: your monitor setting is wrong. divide 51000Hz/1024 and see what you get. note: fixed refresh rate of a TFT is either 50 or 60Hz. can't be anything else
[04:46] <magnethead> it should be at 60 hz
[04:46] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, most likely
[04:46] <navets> is there any way to make recordmydesktop make smaller video files?
[04:46] <magnethead> how do you mean my monitor setting is wrong? it's not giving my a frequency error, only unnative screen resolution
[04:46] <bruenig> navets, encode them afterwards
[04:47] <navets> bruenig: encoded?
[04:47] <UserX> wtf is ata/100 ata-6 and also IDE for laptops???
[04:47] <navets> bruenig: i dont know much about video files. How do I encode?
[04:47] <Davasaurous> I'm using an Nvida GeForce4 420 Go Card, but the Drivers in the Add/Remove section just cause me to get a black screen when I enable them. Where can I upgrade my drivers?
[04:47] <bruenig> navets, unless you fear you are going to run out of disk space, let it make the big file and then encode them
[04:47] <bruenig> navets, with certain codecs, xvid probably wold be good
[04:47] <magnethead> ata/100 and traditional IDE are same thing basically
[04:48] <magnethead> alhough laptop IDE is different i think
[04:48] <gotgenes> I can't log in under the same username in Xnest session as I logged in for the original session. Any ideas why not?
[04:48] <magnethead> i know desktop IDE is the head group for ata133 and ata100
[04:48] <navets> bruenig: is xvid a codec? also what apps can I use to encode?
[04:48] <wols_> magnethead: they are not the same thing and laptops use the same IDE/ATA spec like everyone else
[04:48] <magnethead> oh ok i stand corrected
[04:48] <wols_> magnethead: it's ATA
[04:48] <fiveiron> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sr2JneittqQ
[04:48] <bruenig> navets, not sure on the graphical end, but transcode mencoder ffmpeg all come to mind
[04:48] <fiveiron> way off topic... had to paste tho
[04:49] <wols_> magnethead: I told you waht to do. if you don't want to, your choice
[04:49] <magnethead> ok i have the file updated..do i just need to ctrl-alt-backspace or do a full reboot?
[04:49] <navets> bruenig: k ill try them out thanks
[04:49] <Cooner750> Ok, what gives with networking. I've set SMB on Ubuntu to match my workgroup (/etc/samba/smb.conf), and it still tells me "The folder contents could not be displayed." -- help?
[04:49] <magnethead> i dont see how you mean my monitor setting is wrong? It's set to autodetect
[04:50] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, have you tried what I said
[04:50] <magnethead> but ubuntu doesnt give me a 1280 option so my monitor leaves a blue tint screen over the rest of what's displayed saying change resolution
[04:50] <magnethead> what did you say?
[04:50] <gotgenes> Has anybody tried running a nested session with gdmflexiserver?
[04:51] <wastedfluid> I've done research, but I've come up empty.  My laptop will hibernate on a fresh boot.. but if you try to hibernate anytime after the first time you did hibernate - it won't do it.  the screen goes black(few moments later, it shows login box.. but keyboard is disabled..) and the power light on my laptop goes off, but the laptop is still on.  Any idea? (7.04)
[04:51] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, about removing all other resolutions but the one you want
[04:51] <magnethead> yea i did that
[04:51] <Paddy_EIRE> and
[04:51] <magnethead> so do i ctrl-alt-backspace or do a hot start?
[04:51] <Davasaurous> Anyone know where I can get the drivers for an Nvidia GeForce4 420 Go (laptop) Video card? the NV free ones don't work
[04:51] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, ctrl+alt+backspace
[04:51] <magnethead> ok
[04:53] <Davasaurous> Anyone know where I can get the drivers for an Nvidia GeForce4 420 Go (laptop) Video card? the NV free ones(from add/remove) don't work for me :(
[04:53] <magnethead> um wow that didnt work
[04:53] <Paddy_EIRE> Magilla, i that your surname (Magill)
[04:53] <magnethead> can you say 1280*800?
[04:53] <Paddy_EIRE> yeah
[04:53] <magnethead> i can't even read anything
[04:53] <wols_> magnethead: native res is 1280x1024
[04:54] <wols_> Paddy_EIRE: based on his xorg.conf, have you done the math of 51000/1024?
[04:54] <magnethead> i get 1280*800, 1280*768, 1152*768, 1024*768, 800*600, and 640*480
[04:54] <Paddy_EIRE> wols_, does not matter really as it displays on his screen on boot what the monitor wants
[04:54] <lo4fer> Davasaurous: NVIDIA has them on their website. alternately their is a program called "envy" that fetches and installs them automatically. it can have unpredictable results, though.
[04:54] <Cooner750> Can anyone help with my problem?
[04:55] <wols_> Paddy_EIRE: interesting concept. how did you come to this great conclusion?
[04:55] <Davasaurous> lo4fer: thanks, I'll try the Nvidia site and if I fail I'll come back for an adventure with Envy :P
[04:55] <wols_> Paddy_EIRE: I mean that xorg.conf contents don't really matter since xorg will simply ask the monitor and do what's "best"? I mean why do we still have xorg.conf if it's not taken into consideration?
[04:55] <asdqwezxcdsf> hey how can i make irc-channels automatically start up when launching gaim?
[04:55] <magnethead> the monitor just leaves my screen tinted light blue with "for optimal display change resolution to 1280x1024"
[04:56] <bruenig> asdqwezxcdsf, you can't
[04:56] <Paddy_EIRE> wols_, no need to take the long road for a shortcut ;)
[04:56] <wols_> Paddy_EIRE: what shortcut?
[04:56] <Paddy_EIRE> wols_, nm
[04:56] <bruenig> asdqwezxcdsf, unless you know of a way to have gaim automatically open conversations with certain buddies, then no, since it treats irc as the same thing
[04:56] <asdqwezxcdsf> can i do it in xchat?
[04:56] <gotgenes> Could anybody try doing "gdmflexiserver -n" and see if you can log in with your current user? I can only log in  as other users.
[04:56] <magnethead> so now what do i do?
[04:56] <asdqwezxcdsf> i couldn't find how to...
[04:56] <wols_> and I ask you again: why do we have xorg.conf it Xorg ignores it as you say and asks the monitor directly? and how does it ask non DDC monitors btw?
[04:57] <magnethead> highest i get is 1280*800
[04:57] <wols_> magnethead: can you do what I asked you?
[04:57] <bruenig> asdqwezxcdsf, yeah click on the network and edit it
[04:57] <magnethead> i did
[04:57] <magnethead> 1280x1024 is all thats listed on the file
[04:57] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, so what happened after you restarted once you left 1280x1024 by itself
[04:57] <Cusoon959> I need help with a problem. There are two copies of the drive "L33T FILEZ" on my desktop. When I umount /media/L33T FILEZ and unplug the drive, there is only one. But it's still there. Can anyone tell me how to make it so I only see one "L33T FILEZ" drive on my desktop?
[04:57] <magnethead> it came back and reloade dubuntu as 1280*800
[04:57] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, on each bit depth
[04:57] <wols_> magnethead: so what is the result of the calculation?
[04:57] <rockets> Anybody have gimpshop working?
[04:57] <magnethead> yes i did
[04:57] <magnethead> 49 and change
[04:58] <magnethead> it was working before i did the reconfigure
[04:58] <wols_> magnethead: ok. so so how can X tell the monitor to use 60Hz?
[04:58] <wols_> if it can according to xorg.conf go only to 49 in that re=
[04:58] <wols_> res?
[04:58] <magnethead> before i did the reconfigure i had 1600*1200 listed as a display option as highest
[04:59] <craigbass1976> Is there an Ubuntu equivilent to RH's chkconfig?  I don't have a gui, and don't want to edit all the rc file to stop vsftpd from starting at boot
[04:59] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, what is your monitor
[04:59] <forsen> any user of nessus here right now?
[04:59] <Cusoon959> Can anybody help me?
[05:00] <Paddy_EIRE> !ask
[05:00] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:00] <mobutu> bruenig / asdqwezxcdsf : my pidgin/gaim opens up with specific irc channels, i just defined a 'chat'
[05:00] <magnethead> paddy: LG flattron DFC TFT LCD flatpanel
[05:00] <asdqwezxcdsf> bruenig thanks
[05:00] <forsen> Cusoon959, i am sure 'anybody' can, if there is such a person.
[05:00] <riutaro> Hello?
[05:00] <asdqwezxcdsf> chat?
[05:00] <Cusoon959> I did ask already.
[05:00] <bruenig> !hi | riutaro?
[05:00] <Cusoon959> I need help with a problem. There are two copies of the drive "L33T FILEZ" on my desktop. When I umount /media/L33T FILEZ and unplug the drive, there is only one. But it's still there. Can anyone tell me how to make it so I only see one "L33T FILEZ" drive on my desktop?
[05:00] <ubotu> riutaro?: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:00] <timthelion> how do I prevent the screen from going black after I don't move the mouse for 5 minutes?
[05:00] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, model number
[05:00] <Cooner750> Cusoon959: Good luck getting help in here >_>
[05:01] <riutaro> Yes Thanks.  My first time to be in IRC...  :)
[05:01] <magnethead> havent a clue. lemme look
[05:01] <Cusoon959> Should I go to Ubuntu Forums?
[05:01] <twocarlo> i don't know if xchat has that feature asdqwezxcdsf
[05:01] <bruenig> Cusoon959, simplify your question
[05:01] <craigbass1976> Cusoon959, you should have searched there first
[05:01] <forsen> took a long time, about 10 mins., to login to nessus. is that normal?
[05:01] <timthelion> Cusoon959: that is one hope, and if that doesn't work. go to the gnome mailing list
[05:01] <bruenig> Cusoon959, if there are two copies of it, then rm one it seems
[05:02] <riutaro> Looking for info about SCIM or any program that converts input into CJK scripts.
[05:02] <Cusoon959> It's not a shortcut. It doesn't show up in ls
[05:02] <asdqwezxcdsf> twocarlo yes it had
[05:02] <asdqwezxcdsf> found it already :P
[05:02] <bruenig> Cusoon959, turn off the thing in gconf that puts it there to begin with
[05:02] <magnethead> L1932tq bfr-ausxqpn
[05:02] <LyleM> i'm running rsync and it takes like an hour to complete. So when i do ssh ipaddress, then rsync -a point a to be, how can i exit ssh and still have that running on the server?
[05:02] <riutaro> Is there any localisation of Ubuntu where SCIM works for Skype?
[05:03] <twocarlo> asdqwezxcdsf : good for you
[05:03] <Cusoon959> I don't know how
[05:03] <Cusoon959> Never used gconf
[05:03] <Davasaurous> This is probably a massive noob question, but anyway...
[05:03] <Davasaurous> Is Ubuntu Linux x64 or x86? :\
[05:03] <apache2> how can I lock certain packages and prevent them from upgrading?
[05:03] <apache2> and not through synaptics
[05:03] <Frogzoo> Davasaurous: both
[05:03] <magnethead> that's the whole model number
[05:03] <twocarlo> both
[05:03] <Davasaurous> Fiesty Fawn 7.04? So I can download either of the drivers and be fine?
[05:03] <Frogzoo> apache2: in synaptic, choose 'lock version'
[05:03] <wols_> magnethead: since you clearly can't do much logical thinking or choose to ignore me: change your HorizSync
[05:04] <apache2> Frogzoo: I said not through synaptics
[05:04] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, http://reviews.cnet.com/lcd-monitors/lg-l1932tq-flat-panel/4505-3174_7-31951003.html is this it
[05:04] <apache2> I have to hard lock them
[05:04] <wols_> Davasaurous: you need nvidia-legacy
[05:04] <apache2> b/c I use adept and the command line
[05:04] <wols_> !envy | lo4fer
[05:04] <apache2> and it doesn't picke up on the syaptic locks
[05:04] <ubotu> lo4fer: envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[05:04] <asdqwezxcdsf> bruenig: when i make the list how do i separate the channels from each other?
[05:04] <wols_> lo4fer: do not tell people to use envy or automatix please
[05:04] <wols_> at least not in here
[05:04] <magnethead> paddy yes
[05:05] <RoC_MM> wols_, why?
[05:05] <magnethead> wols u coulda just told me to do that
[05:05] <apache2> why can't you tell people to use automatix
[05:05] <Davasaurous> Nvidia Legacy makes me loose a small strip of my screen and forces my resolution down to 800x600
[05:05] <magnethead> what do i change the sync to?
[05:05] <A_b> you have the option on the download as to your core needs ie 32 bit or 64 bit
[05:05] <wols_> magnethead: cause you should find out on your own to LEARN. if you want stuff force fed, hire a conslutant. he will do your work for you. I always tried to push you in the direction with giving hints
[05:05] <bruenig> asdqwezxcdsf, comma
[05:05] <wols_> magnethead: just THINK one time please for your own
[05:06] <nomas> hi. somebody can help me ?
[05:06] <magnethead> i dont know anything about display systems
[05:06] <Cusoon959> nomas: Yes. Just ask away.
[05:06] <asdqwezxcdsf> bruenig: it didnt work...
[05:06] <wols_> magnethead: that has nothing to do with display systems per se, but with simple math
[05:06] <nomas> ok, i want to install an ircd
[05:06] <magnethead> i can make the stuff inside a computer agree, i just dont know how to make what's inside to communicate with the display device very well
[05:06] <bruenig> asdqwezxcdsf, you did it wrong
[05:06] <bruenig> no spaces, just commas
[05:07] <nomas> how can i search an ircd ?
[05:07] <asdqwezxcdsf> only the first channel opened
[05:07] <magnethead> so what am i supposed to set it to? 46 and change
[05:07] <den_santiago> does anyone knows how to upgrade to firefox 2.0?
[05:08] <Cusoon959> den_santiago: sudo apt-get upgrade
[05:08] <nomas> i try to install ratbox ircd but it say that i need bison
[05:08] <magnethead> I work on engines. not computers
[05:08] <Paddy_EIRE> wols_, thats what i mean by "the long road for a shortcut" if you have something to teach ppl then answer a question that specifically details that they want to read mind numbing nonsense for an hour and stop putting them off...something to prove have we, or maybe you have been up to long
[05:08] <den_santiago> am using dapper..
[05:08] <den_santiago> it just upgrades the 1.5
[05:09] <crdlb> den_santiago, upgrade to edgy or feisty or download it from mozilla.com and use it in your home folder
[05:09] <magnethead> I just put a 600 watt PSU in because i smoked the dell 200 watter
[05:09] <craigbass1976> den_santiago, if 2.0 runs as badly on dapper as it does on edgy, you don't want it
[05:09] <Paddy_EIRE> bye guys
[05:10] <TeraDyne> Firefox 2.0 is why I no longer run firefox
[05:11] <TeraDyne> SeaMonkey and Konqueror are just as good, even though they don't have all the cool addons.
[05:11] <asdqwezxcdsf> bruenig:  #channel1 , #channel2 , ...?
[05:11] <magnethead> so what do i change the horiz and vert sync to?
[05:11] <bruenig> #channel1,#channel2
[05:13] <m_n_p> is the mouse issue with Feisty and virtual PC kernel-related? I've noticed the problem with many linux distros i've tried.
[05:13] <iamcO_ol> hi
[05:13] <asdqwezxcdsf> ok
[05:14] <level1_> whats the name of the virtualization software called xen
[05:14] <iamcO_ol> how may change permission using liveCD? I need to burn my hdd info so I can wipe it out and make a  new installation
[05:14] <iamcO_ol> that's the only thing holding me back
[05:14] <wastedfluid> Anyone know a work around from this annoying ass key-ring password crap?
[05:14] <Flannel> wastedfluid: install libpam-keyring
[05:15] <level1_> iamcO_ol: its the same as in the desktop, isn't it?  do you know how to do it on a full install?
[05:15] <magnethead> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26964/ how do i get it to actually display 1280*1024 as a resolution option on desktop? what do i need to change the very and horiz sync to?
[05:15] <iamcO_ol> level1_: sudo chown -R use /foo
[05:15] <riutaro> Anyone here knows how to by-pass DVD area codes?
[05:15] <iamcO_ol> level1_: sudo chown -R *user /foo
[05:15] <wastedfluid> Flannel; installed.  What next?
[05:15] <wols_> magnethead: as for choosing 46: what is 46000Hz/1024?
[05:15] <iamcO_ol> level1_: don't know the user in the LiveCD
[05:15] <fghfghfgh> uh`
[05:16] <magnethead> almost
[05:16] <magnethead> 45
[05:16] <iamcO_ol> level1_: what root??? I don't think that'll allow me to burn it
[05:16] <fghfghfgh> nick chat
[05:16] <Flannel> wastedfluid: /lastlog level1_
[05:16] <Flannel> er, oops.
[05:16] <gotgenes> Could anybody try doing "gdmflexiserver -n" (you need package "xnest") and see if you can log in as your current user name? I can only log in as other users.
[05:16] <wastedfluid> ?
[05:17] <magnethead> but where is 46K pulled from?
[05:17] <wastedfluid> Flannel; ?
[05:17] <iamcO_ol> anyone know? You know, I am trying to isntal this distro, actually
[05:17] <iamcO_ol> so i would appreciate some help on this
[05:17] <Flannel> wastedfluid: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/NetworkManager#head-41669d33dd37ace3464ac217a60ffac444fff514
[05:17] <wols_> < magnethead> so what am i supposed to set it to? 46 and change <- from this
[05:18] <navets> i need help
[05:18] <Flannel> iamcO_ol: Why do you need to change permissions?
[05:18] <wols_> the value for that setting is kHz
[05:18] <navets> im trying to use avidumux to open a video
[05:18] <navets> and it is a .avi video i made with recordmydesktop
[05:18] <navets> but it wont open
[05:18] <magnethead> well if horiz is set to range from 28Khz to 51 Khz would 46.982 fall in that range?
[05:18] <iamcO_ol> Flannel: this is from previous installation and I wanna do a reinstall, and I've got stuff i don't wanna delete so I wanna burn and k3b isn't letting me burn the pictures folder for instance
[05:18] <iamcO_ol> that's why
[05:19] <Flannel> iamcO_ol: er, you can't read the pictures folder you mean?
[05:19] <wols_> level1_: sudo chmod -R a+r /mountpointofhdd
[05:19] <wols_> iamcO_ol:  sudo chmod -R a+r /mountpointofhdd~
[05:19] <iamcO_ol> wols_: awsome let mee see if it works

[05:20] <navets> i need help resizing a video
[05:20] <wols_> magnethead: it will, but how will it solve your problem: as I said: 46000/1024 is what again?
[05:20] <Rex_> hello all.
[05:20] <navets> how can i resize a .avi to make it smaller?
[05:20] <Rex_> does anyone know if there is a way for me to connect to a Novell VPN (Contivity) site with Ubuntu?
[05:21] <fghfghfgh> joined #u
[05:21] <ooooopsss> whats root password
[05:21] <magnethead> 44.921875
[05:21] <ooooopsss> whats default root password
[05:21] <wols_> so 49 did not work. what makes your think 44 will?
[05:22] <magnethead> thats what i'm asking
[05:22] <magnethead> i dont know what you're telling me
[05:22] <gotgenes> Rex_: network-manager-pptp?
[05:22] <ooooopsss> whats default root password?
[05:22] <magnethead> i know nothing of how graphics cards and monitors communicate
[05:22] <magnethead> i build engines, not computer systems
[05:22] <Flannel> ooooopsss: there is none.  Ubuntu doesn't use root.
[05:22] <bran_> how do I make IRSSI show a userlist on the side?
[05:22] <navets> ooooopsss: there is no root for ubuntu
[05:22] <Flannel> !root | ooooopsss
[05:22] <ubotu> ooooopsss: 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
[05:22] <Rex_> gotgenes: thanks... I will look in to that
[05:22] <ooooopsss> it says i need the root password for java
[05:23] <Flannel> ooooopsss: it's lying.  Are you just installing java?  Use the one in the repositories.
[05:23] <gotgenes> Rex_: it adds a menu item in the dropdown menu of the Network Manager applet (system tray)
[05:24] <magnethead> so i dont know where you'll pulling these numbers from or what they meam
[05:24] <magnethead> mean
[05:24] <wdgfsdf> anh oj
[05:25] <Rex_> gotgenes: cool.. thanks.
[05:25] <gotgenes> Rex_: there's also -openvpn and -vpnc
[05:25] <wols_> vertrefresh is the refresh rate. in your case fixed at 60 which it needs to have
[05:25] <gotgenes> Rex_: hopefully one will work
[05:25] <bababa> good afternoon!
[05:25] <ooooopsss> what is root password for instaling java
[05:25] <ooooopsss> it wont let me
[05:25] <Rex_> gotgenes: yeah... I will have to poke at it.
[05:25] <wols_> ooooopsss: there is no root password
[05:25] <wols_> !java | ooooopsss
[05:25] <Flannel> ooooopsss: there is NO root password.  Are youinstalling java?
[05:25] <ubotu> ooooopsss: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[05:26] <magnethead> it needs to have what
[05:26] <wols_> ooooopsss: you don't need the root pw either btw
[05:26] <EADG> ooooopsss: your login pass is the root password.
[05:26] <bababa> anyone tell me , how to change menu font of scribus 1.3.3.8 ?
[05:26] <Oni-Dracula> hey guys - whats up with the "restricted driver" for ATI cards causing the system to lock up with no display on startup?
[05:26] <iamcO_ol> do I have to shorted the names when burning for Linux?
[05:26] <iamcO_ol> just axing
[05:27] <Frogzoo> !ati
[05:27] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:27] <iamcO_ol> k3b tells me is gonna chopp of a bucn of stuff
[05:27] <wols_> horiSync is a leftover from CRTs and the analog way of transmitting images over vga: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horizontal_sync
[05:27] <EADG> hehe, I knew there was a reason why I stick around in this #...
[05:27] <wols_> the bottom gist is, your horizontal Sync must be high enough to accomodate the product of vertical resolution (1024) and your refrehsrate (60)
[05:27] <Flannel> bran_: the nicklist script
[05:28] <wols_> magnethead: all clear now?
[05:28] <magnethead> ok
[05:28] <magnethead> what about vertrefresh?
[05:29] <keaton> Can somebody walk me though mounting my MP3 player manually?
[05:29] <magnethead> ok i just set it from 28-65
[05:29] <wols_> magnethead: if it still doesn't work: I asked you for xorg.log long ago
[05:30] <magnethead> that file doesnt exist?
[05:30] <wols_> keaton: is it a mass storage device on usb?
[05:30] <magnethead> that or it's not being shown
[05:30] <navets> anyone know a good app to convert .ogg to .avi?
[05:30] <wols_> magnethead: ls -al /var/log/?org*
[05:30] <keaton> wols_: I'm pretty sure. The thing is, when I plug it in, the daemon tells me it's a camara and trys to mount it using some camara protocol, which fails.
[05:30] <wols_> navets: isn't .ogg audio, .ogm video and .avi video?
[05:31] <wols_> keaton: dmesg output please?
[05:31] <gotgenes> wols_: ogg is a container; it can contain video, too
[05:31] <ooooopsss> what is the su password for instaling java
[05:31] <magnethead> ok i have that prompt open
[05:31] <TeraDyne> wols_: I've seen .ogg as video
[05:31] <navets> wols_: ogg has video as well
[05:31] <wols_> gotgenes: I know. usually .ogm is used I thought
[05:31] <navets> wols_: im using a program called recordmydesktop and it saves files as .ogg
[05:31] <keaton> wols_: uh, dmesg?
[05:31] <vbabiy> Hey is there a good screen recorder for Ubuntu with a gui so you can select where to record
[05:31] <wols_> ooooopsss: how are you installing java? what command line do you use?
[05:31] <gotgenes> wols_: ogm I think denotes MPEG encoded video in an OGG container
[05:32] <preaction> ogm is the container, ogg is the audio
[05:32] <wols_> keaton: yes dmesg
[05:32] <ooooopsss> gnome?
[05:32] <TeraDyne> vbably: recordmydesktop or istanbul sould work
[05:32] <wols_> ooooopsss: is "gnome" your command you use to install java?
[05:32] <ooooopsss> no su is
[05:32] <wols_> ooooopsss: full line please
[05:32] <gotgenes> ooooopsss: use sudo, not su
[05:32] <magnethead> wols- what do i set vertrefresh to?
[05:32] <wols_> ooooopsss: and there is no way to use su in proper ubuntu
[05:33] <ooooopsss> su is my command promp
[05:33] <magnethead> is 43-60 fine?
[05:33] <wols_> magnethead: long ago I told you your tft can only do 50 or 60Hz depending on model. and it doesn't matter, no matter what you set it will use its refreshrate
[05:33] <wols_> leave it be
[05:33] <magnethead> oh ok
[05:34] <magnethead> (im also watching busch race
[05:34] <lazaruslupine> question: I have apache2 running w/ torrentflux and jinzora, jinzora suddenly stopped working and the default apache page won't show up, but torrentflux still works. any ideas?
[05:34] <godtvisken> What's the difference between a program like photoshop and illustrator?
[05:35] <wols_> are you watching races while fixing a car too?
[05:35] <ooooopsss> what is the su password for instaling java?
[05:35] <wols_> gotgenes: ask adobe. not #ubuntu
[05:35] <godtvisken> ooooopsss: your own password
[05:35] <ooooopsss> thre command is su!!
[05:35] <sebas_> !sudo
[05:35] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:35] <wols_> ooooopsss: it does not exist. and you DON'T use the java from sun.com!
[05:35] <bruenig> there is no su by default
[05:35] <bruenig> by which I mean no root
[05:35] <ooooopsss> when i put my own password it says access denyed
[05:35] <gotgenes> wols_: Ask Adobe what?
[05:35] <wols_> ooooopsss: if you want to your ubuntu will break. and you ask sun.com for support not us
[05:35] <Dr_willis> root has no password by default. :)
[05:36] <py_geek> ALL- is there any way i can block a website?
[05:36] <wols_> gotgenes != godtvisken srry :)
[05:36] <magnethead> finally working
[05:36] <wols_> godtvisken: ask adobe. not #ubuntu. you are offtopic
[05:36] <gotgenes> wols_: np
[05:36] <magnethead> i can see whats on screen without a blue tint
[05:36] <wols_> py_geek: yes. e.g. iptables
[05:36] <ooooopsss> you guys softwere sux
[05:36] <sebas_> !iptables
[05:36] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[05:36] <wols_> ooooopsss: there is no way to use su in ubuntu
[05:37] <ooooopsss> su
[05:37] <wols_> ooooopsss: we long ago told you how to install java 1.5 or 1.6. it's YOUR fault if you ignored it
[05:37] <wols_> !java | ooooopsss
[05:37] <ubotu> ooooopsss: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[05:37] <lo4fer> does anybody here participate in the bug squad?
[05:37] <py_geek> wols_ - how do i use that
[05:38] <ooooopsss> that site does not exist
[05:38] <py_geek> ooooopsss- ubotu is a bot
[05:38] <ooooopsss> i know that
[05:38] <TeraDyne> ooooopsss: Yes, it does. I have it up in Konqueror right now
[05:39] <lashmoove> is there a gui for ffmpeg that can do batch convert jobs?
[05:39] <ooooopsss> can someone give me some assistance?
[05:39] <ooooopsss> a real person not a bot
[05:39] <ooooopsss> msg me
[05:40] <Strangelv> su won't work if you haven't done sudo passwd
[05:40] <Dr_willis> Strangelv,  thats a secret... :)
[05:40] <wols_> ooooopsss: it does exist. I am looking at it right now.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java
[05:40] <ooooopsss> how do u make sudu password
[05:40] <wols_> !root
[05:40] <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
[05:40] <preaction> ooooopsss: there is no reason to
[05:41] <wols_> ooooopsss: we don't support that here
[05:41] <w30> sudo -i is a useful command if you have a bunch of sudo's to do
[05:41] <Strangelv> ooooopsss: the standard solution is to use 'sudo rootcommand' to run whatever root command
[05:41] <Dr_willis> sudo whatevercommand  or use 'sudo -i' or 'sudo -s'
[05:41] <lashmoove> or sudo su
[05:41] <wols_> w30: don't help him breaking his system please
[05:41] <bigmatt_> in 64 bit ubuntu does it include 32 bit emulation libraries? or you have to install manually?
[05:41] <wols_> bigmatt_: there are ia32libs
[05:41] <wastedfluid> Flannel; Anyone point me to any kind of tutorial or hibernation FAQ?  Laptop goes nuts when you try to hibernate a 2nd time.  (7.04)
[05:41] <bigmatt_> thanks wols_
[05:42] <w30> wols_: Linux is a powerful operating system for good or evil heh, heh
[05:42] <sebas_> wastedfluid: i have the same problem but in the 1st one :(. Seems like a very common issue
[05:42] <Flannel> wols_: `sudo -i` doesn't break anything.
[05:42] <wols_> Flannel: but installing java from sun does
[05:43] <py_geek> all- is there anyway i can block a website using the standard ubuntu feisty download?
[05:43] <invisiblepinkuni> ooooopsss: sudo is equivalent to su, you can use sudo to run anything you want as long as you are administrator (wheel group)
[05:43] <wols_> cause then no java package from ubuntu will ever work due to dependencies
[05:43] <Flannel> wols_: right.  But wha was he doing besides !java?  Eh, doesn't matter. No big deal.
[05:43] <Flannel> !away > TeraDyne|Away
[05:43] <Strangelv> w30: despite Linus' suggestions, I have not used Linux in any shark-mounted lasers
[05:43] <wols_> Flannel: he is trying to run the sun java.bin
[05:44] <w30> Strangelv: hrmm...
[05:44] <wols_> wastedfluid: which type of hibernation do you use?
[05:45] <wastedfluid> wols_; Hm.  I just use Hibernate in 7.04.. Whatever comes factory??
[05:45] <py_geek> ALL - is there any way i can block a website? (cant figure out how to download iptables)
[05:45] <Jordan_U> py_geek, I am sure there is a way to do it with iptables
[05:45] <Flannel> py_geek: iptables is already installed
[05:45] <wols_> py_geek: aptitude install iptables
[05:45] <Jordan_U> !firewall | py_geek
[05:45] <ubotu> py_geek: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[05:45] <Dr_willis> py_geek,  quick and dirty.. edit the hosts file and point the address to 127.0.0.1
[05:45] <Dr_willis> :)
[05:45] <wols_> py_geek: chances are, it's already there
[05:45] <lo4fer> py_geek: what site
[05:45] <Flannel> py_geek: you can also just always route your hosts file to localhost. yeah
[05:46] <wols_> py_geek: but note that what you want to do is easily circumvented by anyone with only half a clue
[05:46] <wastedfluid> wols_;  Is there an additional hibernate method?
[05:46] <invisiblepinkuni> py_geek: yes, good idea Dr_willis
[05:46] <Dr_willis> invisiblepinkuni,  thers some 'anti spam/ad' hosts file site out i recall ages ago. :)
[05:46] <wols_> so unless you want to block a program from phoning home, it usually won't work (that is if you want to block a human from visiting a site)
[05:46] <py_geek> lo4fer: runescape. i'm sick and tired of playing it too much
[05:47] <harisamin> hey guys
[05:47] <harisamin> i have a rpoblem
[05:47] <wols_> wastedfluid: there is suspend2 but that needs a kernel patch. means a custom kernel
[05:47] <harisamin> on g4 powerpc...during the installation of the bast system...i get a debootstrap error
[05:47] <Flannel> harisamin: Try the minimal ISO
[05:47] <lo4fer> py_geek: so what you want is basically a diy netnanny
[05:47] <harisamin> i'm uisng an egy alternate cd for powerpc...and i checked it on a G3 powerbook and teh integrity of the cd is alright
[05:48] <py_geek> dr_willis- i'm still detoxing from windows, where is the ubuntu host file?
[05:48] <harisamin> Flannel: i did...the alternate cd...thats what i've been trying
[05:48] <Dr_willis> py_geek,  i saw a firefox extension the other day that turns firefox into a 'kid safe' browser.
[05:48] <Dr_willis> py_geek,  in /etc with all the other system config files. :)
[05:48] <Flannel> harisamin: no, the minimal ISO, not the alternate CD.
[05:48] <Flannel> !minimal | harisamin
[05:48] <ubotu> harisamin: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[05:48] <invisiblepinkuni> py_geek: /etc/hosts
[05:48] <Jordan_U> Strangelv, /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:48] <Flannel> harisamin: it downloads all packages from the internet, so they won't be read wrong.
[05:48] <Dr_willis> You want to block a site.. from yourself using it?
[05:49] <harisamin> ok
[05:49] <harisamin> i'll try this flannel
[05:49] <palomer> hello
[05:49] <palomer> how do I get ubuntu to check/fix my filesystem?
[05:50] <Strangelv> Jordan_U: the only resoluhion listed there is 1280x768.  640x480, 800x600, and 1024x768 show up anyway
[05:50] <Jordan_U> palomer, run this then reboot: sudo touch /forcefsck
[05:50] <wols_> palomer: sudo touch /forcefsck. then reboot
[05:50] <palomer> thx
[05:50] <harisamin> Flannel: the minimal iso links from the page you sent me are all dead for POWERPC?
[05:50] <incandenzian> Has anyone experienced a situation where, if you leave the computer unattended for a fair length of time, when you come back and pull it out of screensaver, you've got this boot-screen-looking lines of code and then it doesn't load back into X?
[05:50] <kyled185> does anyone know why on ubuntu server sudo would suddenly stop working?
[05:50] <Flannel> py_geek: check out `dansguardian` in universe.  It's similar to netnanny
[05:50] <wols_> incandenzian: means your suspend to disk is broken
[05:51] <cwgannon> ahoy ... can gnomeparted merge two fat32 partitions?
[05:51] <Jordan_U> kyled185, Is your user set up in /etc/sudoers ?
[05:52] <kyled185> Jordan_U: I can't check because I can't open it. However it was working perfectly fine until it all of a sudden stopped working
[05:52] <satukan_hati_dan> jiwa
[05:52] <kyled185> Jordan_U: and it happened during the middle of a session, no reboot, no updates or anything
[05:52] <cappii> evening everyone
[05:52] <satukan_hati_dan> raga
[05:52] <satukan_hati_dan> kokgor
[05:52] <satukan_hati_dan> krll] 
[05:52] <harisamin> Flannel: are u there...the minimal iso links on that page are dead?
[05:53] <Jordan_U> kyled185, You can check it from single user mode or a liveCD
[05:53] <craigbass1976> Is there an Ubuntu equivilent to RH's chkconfig?  I don't have a gui, and don't want to edit all the rc file to stop vsftpd from starting at boot
[05:53] <Jordan_U> kyled185, I have no idea why it would stop working though
[05:53] <Flannel> harisamin: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/main/installer-powerpc/current/images/powerpc/netboot/
[05:53] <kyled185> Jordan_U: yeah, I don't either, I've never seen that happen ever
[05:54] <Flannel> kyled185: What error does it give?  anything?  `sudo -K` and then try something.
[05:54] <unrealsword> hey whats the best ubuntu music player
[05:54] <Flannel> !best | unrealsword
[05:54] <ubotu> unrealsword: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[05:54] <unrealsword> heh
[05:55] <harisamin> Flannel: you just sent me a link for the feisty version...i thought there was no poewrpc fesity vresion...are u sure that will allow me to download packages and stuff...coz i knwo for edgy i still can
[05:55] <invisiblepinkuni> damn.... i have a root user on my system... how did that happen?
[05:55] <AJ--> hi just want to ask??? are webcam supported in ubuntu.. to run in yahoo
[05:55] <Strangelv> Jordan_U: one detail is that my xorg.conf is a bit of a hack to get 1280x768 to work at all.  It also dates to when this machine was installed with Edgy.  Wait.  Dapper from the previous HD.
[05:55] <unrealsword> besides what comes stock with ubuntu
[05:55] <invisiblepinkuni> does anyone else have root by default?
[05:55] <unrealsword> anything interesting?
[05:55] <kyled185> ah, I think I removed myself from the admin group
[05:55] <palomer> gnomebaker rocks!
[05:55] <unrealsword> lol
[05:55] <palomer> I like it better than k3b
[05:55] <Jordan_U> Strangelv, What kind of hack? Just adding the resolution manually or more than that?
[05:56] <cappii> I've personally not had any luck with webcams on any version of Linux with Yahoo.
[05:56] <w30> unrealsword: sometimes the best choice is to use a gnome one if using gnome and kde if using kde, etc
[05:56] <AJ--> are webcam support in ubuntu to run in yahoo
[05:56] <Flannel> harisamin: PPC from feisty on is community supported.  You can get the other CDs here: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/7.04/release/
[05:56] <harisamin> Flannel: so the netinstall for feisty will work then?
[05:56] <Strangelv> Jordan_U: manually added and removed everything else.  IIRC, ntil I did that I couldn't get 1280x768 to work at all
[05:56] <invisiblepinkuni>  sudo head -n 1 /etc/passwd gives root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash
[05:56] <cappii> AJ - I don't think so... did you google it?
[05:57] <Flannel> harisamin: yeah. If you want a previous version, here's edgy: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy/main/installer-powerpc/current/images/powerpc/netboot/
[05:57] <Strangelv> Jordan_U: Actually, I can't remember when it dates to.  Either Dapper or Edgy
[05:57] <Flannel> !root | invisiblepinkuni
[05:57] <ubotu> invisiblepinkuni: 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
[05:57] <Jordan_U> Strangelv, What is the problem now? Did that stop working also?
[05:57] <Flannel> invisiblepinkuni: Ubuntu doesn't use root, it uses sudo instead.
[05:57] <invisiblepinkuni> Flannel: i understand that, but how is there a root user on my system. i dont remember creating one
[05:58] <Jordan_U> Flannel, Do people actually try to guess the root password?
[05:58] <Flannel> invisiblepinkuni: Oh.  Sorry.  root user exists.  It just can't login.  That's normal.
[05:58] <Strangelv> Jordan_U: It runs nicely at 1280x768 until I run something that wants to be fullscreen.  Then it's FUBAR
[05:58] <invisiblepinkuni> Flannel: oooohhhhh thank the IPU... for a moment i thought my system was hacked. :)
[05:58] <Flannel> Jordan_U: yeah.  People come in and say "Ive tried everything I can think of" yadda yadda.  Just like trying to guess user/password for (bad burned) liveCDs
[05:58] <cappii> correct.  you cannot log in as root from the login
[05:59] <Flannel> invisiblepinkuni: nah, the root user exists because (most) ofthe system files are owned by it.  It is a user, it's just unable to login.
[05:59] <Jordan_U> Strangelv, I would backup your old config and update to what Feisty wants by running: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh
[05:59] <lockdown2> Jordan_U, i just use sudo to change the root password
[05:59] <cappii> Probably just as a safeguard to keep people from messing up the install
[05:59] <harisamin> Flannel: the minimial installation is only 12 megabytes....instead of burning a cd....can i put int on a zip disk and boot from zip disk in powerpc?
[05:59] <AJ--> i  wanted to use a4tech cam on my yahoo running under wine but i dont know how to configure it.. does any one know?
[05:59] <Jordan_U> lockdown2, That is what you are supposed to do ( if you really insist on having one that is )
[05:59] <invisiblepinkuni> Flannel: is it theoritically possible to login to root? if i luckily enter the right password?
[06:00] <Flannel> harisamin: yeah.  It just needs to be booted from.
[06:00] <Jordan_U> invisiblepinkuni, Yes :)
[06:00] <Flannel> invisiblepinkuni: no.  There are NO passwords that will work for the root account.
[06:00] <Flannel> Jordan_U: no.
[06:00] <harisamin> Flannel: but how do u burn an iso to a zip disk?
[06:00] <invisiblepinkuni> Jordan_U: ?
[06:00] <Flannel> !install | harisamin
[06:00] <ubotu> harisamin: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[06:00] <Strangelv> Jordan_U: Danke.  Know any keywords I could try searching if that doesn't work? My attemptsat finding something on my own have not been successful (thus my bugging people in here)
[06:00] <Jordan_U> Flannel, Sorry, misunderstood question
[06:00] <Flannel> harisamin: check out that page, it explains how to boot from USB disks and stuff.  Same method
[06:00] <DanaG> How do you get amarok to automatically run scripts at startup?
[06:00] <invisiblepinkuni> phew....
[06:00] <AJ-->  i  wanted to use a4tech cam on my yahoo running under wine but i dont know how to configure it.. does any one know?
[06:00] <logan> I just installed ubuntu and it isnt detecting my PCMIAA Netgear wireless network card, what do I have to do?
[06:01] <Arenlor>  invisiblepinkuni, did you set a password for the root account?
[06:01] <invisiblepinkuni> Flannel: Jordan_U : just a layer of security for brute force attackers cant exploit
[06:01] <Jordan_U> logan, Do you know what chipset the card uses?
[06:01] <logan> No
[06:01] <DanaG> logan: what card is it?
[06:01] <logan> It is a PCMIAA Netgear card
[06:01] <invisiblepinkuni> Arenlor: no i did not, but just saw that there was a root user on my system and got worried
[06:01] <DanaG> Name, or model number?
[06:01] <DanaG> Look on the bottom.
[06:01] <cappii> Logan: when you click on network connections, beside the clock, what do you see?
[06:02] <invisiblepinkuni> i dont remember this root user existed for 5.10 or 6.06
[06:02] <Jordan_U> logan, Can you pastebin the output of: lspcmcia
[06:02] <logan> Wired network
[06:02] <AJ-->  i  wanted to use a4tech cam on my yahoo running under wine but i dont know how to configure it.. does any one know?
[06:02] <Arenlor> invisiblepinkuni, good then it has no password and can't be used
[06:02] <logan> How do I output lspcmia?
[06:02] <Flannel> invisiblepinkuni: it did.  It's always existed
[06:02] <lockdown2> invisiblepinkuni, the root user has to exist
[06:02] <riutaro> Hello, someone help me play DVD across region codes? I have installed libdvd but does not seem to work.
[06:02] <Jordan_U> logan, Just run it in a terminal
[06:02] <TheGoodShepherd> Do any of you folks know of an Open Source Trebuchet simulator program?
[06:02] <TheGoodShepherd> That works on linux?
[06:02] <invisiblepinkuni> thanks folks
[06:03] <logan> bash: lspcmia: command not found
[06:03] <Strangelv> TheGoodShepherd: I haven't but that sounds like fun
[06:03] <DanaG> pcmcia
[06:03] <kyled185> I was thinking the same thing
[06:03] <Jordan_U> logan, pcmCia
[06:03] <Flannel> TheGoodShepherd: Wouldn't a spreadsheet work fine?  Simple kinematics?  Do you have a trebuchet program for non-linux?
[06:04] <Jordan_U> riutaro, I think that libdvdcss ignores region codes, do any DVD's work?
[06:04] <logan> Socket 0 Bridge:        [yenta_cardbus]          (bus ID: 0000:02:05.0)
[06:04] <logan> Socket 1 Bridge:        [yenta_cardbus]          (bus ID: 0000:02:05.1)
[06:04] <Jordan_U> !paste | logan
[06:04] <ubotu> logan: 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)
[06:04] <wols_> logan: don't paste here!
[06:04] <invisiblepinkuni> a liveCD should detect a windows partition and do a rm -rf /  :D
[06:04] <logan> Define large texts, that is only two lines
[06:05] <DanaG> 3 is about the edge of what I'd use.
[06:05] <Jordan_U> logan, Yea, but many times because of the flood prevention it takes a while to paste a lot, so it seemed ( to me at least ) like you were trying to paste the whole thing
[06:05] <DanaG> Model number is useful to google with the word 'linux'
[06:06] <riutaro>  Jordan_U: Yes, I have DVDs from Jp work.  but not ones from US.
[06:06] <DanaG> Such as, "Netgear MA521 Linux" without quotes.
[06:06] <Jordan_U> DanaG, google.com/linux is better :)
[06:06] <logan> Ok well I only have two PCMCIA ports and those are the only two lines lspcmcia output
[06:06] <AJ--> any one knows how to install a4tech cam.. so i can make it work with yahoo msgr
[06:06] <Jordan_U> riutaro, And the ones from Japan are encrypted?
[06:07] <narthollis> hey guys - how can i find out why my kernel paniced?
[06:07] <metbsd> wat is that package that makes my resolution to 1280x800?
[06:07] <Jordan_U> metbsd, What GFX card do you have?
[06:08] <metbsd> intel
[06:08] <Jordan_U> metbsd, 915resolution
[06:08] <metbsd> yah
[06:08] <metbsd> how do i install it?
[06:08] <nuOpus> hello
[06:08] <Jordan_U> metbsd, Enable universe and install it like any other package ( synaptic / apt )
[06:08] <wols_> good to know that metbsd isn't running kubuntu since he thinks it's too unstable
[06:08] <metbsd> also, no sound coming out of my laptop, unless i plugin the earphone
[06:09] <nuOpus> does anyone know how to make suspend laptop work with desktop effects on? it works perfect with them off
[06:09] <riutaro> Jordan: <<<
[06:09] <riutaro> And the ones from Japan are encrypted?<<<
[06:09] <riutaro> I don't know.  The pachage says the DVDs are not copyable.  Is that what you meant
[06:09] <riutaro> ?
[06:09] <metbsd> i put the kubuntu back
[06:09] <nuOpus> otherwise I just get a black screen with just cursor when it comes back up
[06:09] <Jordan_U> riutaro, Yes
[06:10] <Strangelv> Jordan_U: Run -- I'll find out if it works the next time I'm forced to restart X Windows or similar.  Thank you.
[06:10] <alecw2> Whenever I open any PHP document, I get this error: "The filename "admin.tpl.php" indicates that this file is of type "PHP script". The contents of the file indicate that the file is of type "HTML document". If you open this file, the file might present a security risk to your system." How do I stop this?
[06:11] <Consty> Is there any apps that operate like daemon tools?  Where you can mount an iso image and read it ?
[06:11] <riutaro> Jordan_U: and one of the US DVDs have NTSC (region 1) written on the package.
[06:11] <logan> I thought linux was supposed to be really good at autodetecting and supporting drivers of things
[06:12] <vbabiy> Hey is there a good screen recorder for Ubuntu with a gui so you can select where to record
[06:12] <riutaro> Mplayer rejects opening it.
[06:12] <logan> I can't find any links that still work regarding the 8180L chipset
[06:12] <PurpZeY> vbabiy: There are at least 3.
[06:12] <overrider> is there a commandline qq client?
[06:12] <wols_> qq?
[06:12] <vbabiy> PurpZeY: thats great what are they?
[06:12] <riutaro> the error message being "cannot access maybe permission problem?"
[06:12] <overrider> qq, the popular chinese instant messaging thingy
[06:13] <PurpZeY> vbabiy: I've used istanbul, there is another one, it's called x-screen-capture, or screen or something that nature.
[06:13] <wols_> logan: sudo modprobe r818x
[06:13] <metbsd> overrider: there is eva, but it's for kde
[06:13] <Oni-Dracula|64> so is there an ATI driver that doesn't break xorg?
[06:13] <Jordan_U> riutaro, Have you tried VLC or mplayer ?
[06:13] <alecw2>  Whenever I open any PHP document, I get this error: "The filename "admin.tpl.php" indicates that this file is of type "PHP script". The contents of the file indicate that the file is of type "HTML document". If you open this file, the file might present a security risk to your system." How do I stop this?
[06:13] <wols_> Oni-Dracula|64: what ati chip/card?
[06:13] <vbabiy> thanks PurpZeY
[06:13] <overrider> metbsd: hey, yeah i was looking for something simple, just need the chat function
[06:13] <Oni-Dracula|64> wols_: radeon X300SE
[06:13] <PurpZeY> vbabiy: No worries.
[06:13] <Arenlor> logan, have you tried ndsiwrapper?
[06:14] <riutaro> Yes.  VLC shuts down when I prompt it to open the bloody DVD.
[06:14] <overrider> metbsd: for osx there is adium
[06:14] <metbsd> so how do i get earphone to work in notebook
[06:14] <metbsd> overrider: oh you are the german in guangdong, right?
[06:14] <wols_> Oni-Dracula|64: which driver have you tried?
[06:14] <wols_> Oni-Dracula|64: is it a DX9 capable card?
[06:14] <logan> No, I'll download that
[06:14] <vbabiy> hey do you know a url to istanbul
[06:15] <wols_> vbabiy: not constantinople.com
[06:15] <Oni-Dracula|64> wols_: it's DX9... and I tried the restricted driver through the GUI and the "manual" command line install
[06:15] <Arenlor> logan, this site here gives some instructions about making it work after ndiswrapper http://www.samwel.tk/bart/various/dwl-510-on-linux-2.6.html
[06:15] <overrider> metbsd: yeah
[06:15] <Oni-Dracula|64> wols_: "xorg-driver-fglrx"
[06:16] <wols_> Oni-Dracula|64: and how did it break?
[06:16] <wols_> vbabiy: http://www.ibb.gov.tr/en-US/AnaSayfa/
[06:16] <Oni-Dracula|64> wols_: installed it, restarted and when xorg launches during bootup my display blanks itself as if the resolution was out of range (possibly)
[06:17] <Oni-Dracula|64> wols_: from what I can tell, the system is locked up
[06:17] <wols_> Oni-Dracula|64: check your log
[06:17] <overrider> metbsd: playing with ubuntu now for laptops?
[06:17] <Oni-Dracula|64> wols_: the xorg log? where is it, i forget
[06:17] <metbsd> overrider: yah, im bored of windows and want to try some *nix
[06:17] <logan> I can't find the ndsiwrapper package
[06:17] <alecw2> How do I set a default application for opening PHP files?
[06:18] <metbsd> so far, windows still best on this laptop
[06:18] <PurpZeY> logan: I don't think it's in the repos.
[06:18] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, Can you get to a terminal with ctrl+alt+F1 ?
[06:18] <cappii> Metbsd:  what type of laptop?
[06:18] <overrider> metbsd: ubuntu usually works for me laptop wise
[06:18] <eyemean> hi, can some1 tell me best way to format HD but still be able to keep some partitions?
[06:18] <Oni-Dracula|64> Jordan_U: no i can not
[06:18] <Xenguy> .oO(console)
[06:18] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, Does sysrq K work?
[06:18] <metbsd> acer aspire 3680
[06:19] <Oni-Dracula|64> Jordan_U: never tried it, what's it do?
[06:19] <saxartist> Here's where my Ubuntu is living:  http://www.tomorrowagain.com
[06:19] <DanaG> alt-sysrq-k is kernel-level "kill everything on current tty"
[06:19] <saxartist> Like my case?
[06:19] <cappii> I'm running Feisty Fawn on 3 different laptops
[06:19] <riutaro> Jordan_U: Just tried with Totem.  The error message is "An error occurred/ Could not read from resource."
[06:19] <Oni-Dracula|64>  hmmm ill try it to see what happens
[06:20] <Jordan_U> riutaro, Totem ( rather totem-gstreamer ) Can't play DVD's at all anyways
[06:20] <metbsd> overrider: so you having fun in dong guan?
[06:20] <metbsd> overrider: aren't those chicks too easy or what
[06:21] <alecw2>  How do I set a default application for opening PHP files?
[06:21] <Jordan_U> alecw2, Right click -> Properties -> Open With
[06:22] <wols_> onelessday: /var/log/
[06:22] <vbabiy> hey PurpZeYp do you know if there is one that can record a specific area of the screen
[06:22] <riutaro> Jordan_U: my incurable ignorance.....  Anyways, reading this page (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs) I was under the impression that everything works alright once I have done command "sudo apt-get install libdvdread3 libxine1-ffmpeg"
[06:22] <overrider> metbsd: easy my ass
[06:22] <Anthology> city check: 00zero00
[06:22] <alecw2> Jordan_U, I did that, but it only works for that one time
[06:22] <alecw2> I have to keep doing it with each file.
[06:22] <overrider> metbsd: ive been working my balls of for this one , and until now, 4 months later, no go
[06:22] <PurpZeY> vbabiy: istanbul can...I mean, that program worked for me, but I understand that it can be hit or miss...with screen caps.
[06:23] <overrider> metbsd: im not talking hookers yeah, i mean normal regular individuals
[06:23] <metbsd> overrider: most of foreigners in china have girl problem
[06:23] <DanaG> (offtopic:)ooh, PCIe wifi card.
[06:23] <DanaG> http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/2007/06/24/abit_airpace_wifi_pci-e_card/1
[06:23] <vbabiy> PurpZeY: ok thanks i will give it a try
[06:23] <overrider> metbsd: well this one is really giving me a hard time
[06:24] <logan> I just installed ndiswrapper, what now? Nothing happend.
[06:24] <Jordan_U> alecw2, You shoudn't have to, are you sure you went to right click -> Properties -> Open with and not just right click -> Open with ?
[06:24] <alecw2> Yes, Jordan.
[06:25] <alecw2> I get the following error:
[06:25] <alecw2> The filename "admin.tpl.php" indicates that this file is of type "PHP script". The contents of the file indicate that the file is of type "HTML document". If you open this file, the file might present a security risk to your system.
[06:25] <willarizona> Question: during the alternate cd install (the text based one).. my install has been sitting on "installed brltty-x11" for a looong time.. should i restart the install? sitting ay 85% complete of select and install software part. just sitting there :(
[06:25] <metbsd> overrider: i thought they are just loose with foreigners
[06:25] <alecw2> Do not open the file unless you created the file yourself, or received the file from a trusted source. To open the file, rename the file to the correct extension for "HTML document", then open the file normally. Alternatively, use the Open With menu to choose a specific application for the file.
[06:26] <camh> i've got a gigabyte ds3 motherboard with an ICH8 chipset. What do I need to do to enable sata hotswap?
[06:26] <PurpZeY> logan: You have to install the driver into ndiswrapper. . .I haven't really been following what you're up to, but that's the step.
[06:26] <overrider> metbsd: nah, there is a certain kind that is, but the regular normal working girls, like with office jobs and stuff, same shit as home. lots of work and time needed
[06:27] <Jordan_U> riutaro, " I was under the impression that everything works alright once I have done command "sudo apt-get install libdvdread3 libxine1-ffmpeg"" no, you need to follow the next section's instructions also, for libdvdcss2
[06:27] <Oni-Dracula> wols_, so what does it mean when alt-sysreq-k does nothing?
[06:28] <metbsd> overrider: oh,hehe
[06:28] <metbsd> overrider: i'm now in shenzhen
[06:28] <metbsd> overrider: there are lonely girls everywhere in the weekend
[06:28] <metbsd> overrider: but you better be a native, it's easier
[06:29] <Comrade-Sergei> how do you turn down gamma correction in ubuntu?
[06:29] <overrider> metbsd: nah, after 8 years, you become sort of accustomed
[06:29] <|Porsche> metbsd: a native of where?
[06:29] <metbsd> |Porsche: china
[06:30] <|Porsche> never been there, have been to korea though
[06:30] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, just wondering which card? i810?
[06:30] <overrider> metbsd: shenzhen isnt far away, why not come by some time, for a few drinks
[06:30] <metbsd> overrider: so how many in 8 years
[06:30] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, ATi Radeon 9280
[06:30] <logan> PurpZey, I have to install a driver into ndiswrapper? What driver and how? I have the Netgear MA521, uses the 8180L chip
[06:30] <Oni-Dracula> Jordan_U, would you happen to know why ctrl+alt+sysreq+k does nothing with this bug?
[06:30] <metbsd> overrider: maybe i should!
[06:30] <overrider> metbsd: haha, i was kind of involved for 4 years with a girl, so didnt see much action then
[06:31] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, well just brightness really
[06:31] <overrider> metbsd: yes you should, if you want i send you my mobile in case you find the time, give me a call...
[06:31] <regjava> I am getting "failed to run admin-services as user root" even if i try to start it as a diffrent nuser
[06:31] <metbsd> overrider: i can only come at weekend, i have to work til 10pm weekday
[06:32] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, xvattr command does that
[06:32] <metbsd> i'm working in this canadian company
[06:32] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, Either your system is thoroughly crashed ( at the kernel level ) or whatever controls video output is, without ssh enabled ( which I doubt it is ) it's not really possible to tell which
[06:32] <metbsd> the working time is just screwedup
[06:32] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei,  !xvattr
[06:32] <metbsd> working hour that is
[06:32] <regjava> it says "unable to copy users X authorization file"
[06:33] <narthollis> Hey guys, i have a system running Ubuntu server 6.06.1, which has kernel paniced a few times lately - how can i find out why its kernel panicing?
[06:33] <Oni-Dracula> Jordan_U, would you think the official ATI driver is anything but poo?
[06:33] <PurpZeY> logan: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=92119&highlight=Netgear+MA521
[06:33] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei,  just use the brighntess/contrast paramater
[06:34] <Frogzoo> narthollis: only way I know is to run a console off the serial port
[06:34] <alecw2> Can somebody look at this, and help me out? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2902286#post2902286
[06:34] <Frogzoo> narthollis: but usually just fixing whatever driver is the problem is all you need
[06:34] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, If you have an ATI card I would probably say that is the culprit, use the open source drivers ( if they work for your card ) or disable DRI to get more stability.
[06:34] <narthollis> Frogzoo: yeah, i dont know what module is causing the issue though
[06:34] <DanaG> How do you get amarok to auto-run scripts at start?
[06:34] <dotpavan> hey, how do you convert media file to 3gp format? do you people use mencoder/ffmpeg commandline or recommend any gui app?
[06:34] <westoncampbell> My laptop's (Dell Inspiron 600m) S-Video out does not work on Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn. My video card is ATI (ATI Technologies Inc Radeon R250 [Mobility FireGL 9000] ). How can I make it work???
[06:34] <narthollis> plugin in a moniter dosnt show engough of the panic output
[06:35] <Oni-Dracula> Jordan_U, I was using the open sauce drivers :(
[06:35] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, gotta dl it
[06:36] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, Oh, they aren't bad stability wise AFIK, just feature and speed wise ( due to lack of documentation )
[06:36] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, nope, I guess "xvattr" is part of feisty
[06:36] <OmegaCenti> Alright, there is a large box in underneath me in nethack, how do I open/loot the darn thing?
[06:36] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, not on my feisty box
[06:37] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, it is just an apt-get install away
[06:37] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, Do you have openssh installed?
[06:37] <logan> :~$ ndiswrapper -i NET8180.INF
[06:37] <logan> couldn't create /etc/ndiswrapper/net8180: Permission denied at /usr/sbin/ndiswrapper-1.9 line 146.
[06:37] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, nah i prefer a gui
[06:37] <PurpZeY> logan: use sudo
[06:37] <regjava> Can i get my system to login automatically every time i Boots?
[06:37] <Oni-Dracula> Jordan_U, if it's not installed by default, then no
[06:38] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, Did this computer ever boot correctly? Is this a new install / LiveCD ?
[06:38] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, how do i edit?
[06:38] <westoncampbell> My laptop's (Dell Inspiron 600m) S-Video out does not work on Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn. My video card is ATI (ATI Technologies Inc Radeon R250 [Mobility FireGL 9000] ). How can I make it work???
[06:38] <PurpZeY> !ATI | westoncampbell
[06:38] <ubotu> westoncampbell: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:38] <Oni-Dracula> Jordan_U, yes it booted correctly when freshly installed...then after installing the ati driver under the GUI "Restricted Drivers" it broke
[06:38] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, see system-->pref-->monitor settings (on feisty) (only if your card is supported)
[06:39] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, it is called "gddcontrol"
[06:39] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, monitor settings wtf?
[06:39] <riutaro> Jordan_U, okay.  I followed the insturction in the page to the very end.  Installed libdvdcss2 and checked if region code is set in the dvd driver (with regionset).  Nope, the US dvd still causes VLC to close without notice.
[06:39] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, The restricted driver manager installs the proprietary drivers ( fglrx ) ( the ones I commented were unstable :)
[06:40] <Oni-Dracula> Jordan_U, ok so what is installed by default? the open source ones?
[06:40] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, Yes
[06:40] <crdlb> westoncampbell, you can't
[06:40] <westoncampbell> crdlb: whaaat? Why?
[06:40] <Oni-Dracula> Jordan_U, what's it's apt-get package name?
[06:40] <logan> FATAL: Error inserting ndiswrapper (/lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/ubuntu/misc/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper.ko): Operation not permitted
[06:41] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, you have those things in your preferences?
[06:41] <PurpZeY> logan: sudo
[06:41] <crdlb> westoncampbell, because your card is no longer supported by fglrx
[06:41] <crdlb> (the proprietary ati driver)
[06:41] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, yup
[06:41] <crdlb> and there's no way to get an older version (8.28.8 or older) working on feisty
[06:41] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, They are still installed, just boot a liveCD and change your /etc/X11/xorg.conf to use "ati" instead of "fglrx"
[06:41] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, lol i dont!
[06:41] <westoncampbell> @crdlb, that really stinks because I was wanting to hook up to my TV.
[06:41] <Oni-Dracula> Jordan_U, thanks
[06:41] <narthollis> hmmm... what console framebuffer dose ubuntu use?
[06:42] <lazaruslupine> I'm stuck. On my server torrentflux is working, but no other php based service is working(phpmyadmin, jinzora)
[06:42] <westoncampbell> crdlb, maybe installing an incorrect display driver will make it work, as long as I don't get any weird side effects?
[06:42] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, try "gddcontrol"
[06:42] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, Depending on your card, you may or may not get 3D acceleration with the open source drivers, but if you do they will work with beryl :) ( fglrx won't without XGL )
[06:42] <crdlb> westoncampbell, it just won't work
[06:43] <lazaruslupine> like phpmyadmin is installed but apparently can't be found on the server
[06:43] <logan> sudo: cardctl: command not found , I also tried without sudo
[06:43] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, command not found
[06:43] <logan> it told me to try getting it with apt-get but the package doesn't exist
[06:43] <DanaG> pccardctl
[06:44] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, try apt-get
[06:44] <PurpZeY> logan: You are typing the wrong command somehow...@DanaG pccardctrl
[06:44] <wols_> logan: have you searched on packages.ubuntu.com?
[06:44] <DanaG> A more useful utility is hal-device-manager -- shows a device tree.
[06:44] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, its not in the repos
[06:44] <logan> This website just says #cardctl but pccardctl worked
[06:44] <Oni-Dracula> Jordan_U, all i care about is wine + warcraft 3 :)
[06:45] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, That may or may not run better with fglrx
[06:45] <hypo> Hi, is there an equivelent to the "windows" key in ubuntu? (something that will allow me to switch to the desktop when running a program)
[06:45] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, what are you running?
[06:45] <NaNO2x> hi, whats the program for screwing with your network stuff? wpconfig or something is what i remember but thats not working
[06:45] <wols_> Oni-Dracula: so what does your log say?
[06:45] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, ubuntu 7.04 feisty fawn
[06:45] <wols_> NaNO2x: screwing in what way? be specific
[06:45] <dotpavan> hypo: you can configure keyboard shortcuts to whatever you want
[06:46] <Oni-Dracula> wols_, don't know... i have no idea where the xorg log is
[06:46] <wols_>  /var/log
[06:46] <NaNO2x> such as figureing out which is connecting to a network with
[06:46] <NaNO2x> i think its eth0, but it may be eth1
[06:46] <hypo> dotpavan: is there a default method of "alt-tabbing" out of a running program?
[06:46] <PurpZeY> NaNO2x: iwconfig
[06:46] <wols_> NaNO2x: /sbin/ifconfig
[06:46] <NaNO2x> thanks
[06:47] <dotpavan> hypo: you want to minimise current window or all windows?
[06:47] <hypo> current
[06:47] <tripppy> im getting errors while emptying garbage bin, yes ive tryed "sudo rm -rf /home/<your username>/.Trash/*"
[06:47] <ryantucc> can someone help? I think I may have wrecked my laptop...
[06:47] <dotpavan> hypo: alt-f9, but you can configure that
[06:47] <wols_> !ask | ryantucc
[06:47] <ubotu> ryantucc: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:47] <hypo> thank you very much dotpavan!
[06:47] <CNTRLX> Anybody know if there are shared servers up for XDMCP on list somewhere to be able to use other OS;s?
[06:48] <Flannel> CNTRLX: XDMCP uses UDP, so you can't use it (unless you tunnel) outside of your LAN
[06:48] <CNTRLX> yes
[06:48] <Dr_willis> CNTRLX,  clarify that a bit..  not sure what you are meaning..
[06:49] <ryantucc> I installed kde to try it out, and it worked, then I restarted and it dropped me to a command line with an error message. I asked on the forum here (http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3084481.0) and was told to edit a file after booting from an install disk, but now I can't find that file
[06:49] <CNTRLX> i was wondering if people shared servers of running desktops to be able to login from your local machine
[06:49] <thechris> !dvd
[06:49] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[06:49] <logan> I did everything it told me to do
[06:49] <logan> and this happend on the last step
[06:49] <logan> http://pastebin.com/935027
[06:49] <Dr_willis> CNTRLX,  if they do. they probly are not using xdmcp, they may be using vnc, or freenx,
[06:49] <wols_> ryantucc: files have names and paths. and if you know those you can edit them
[06:50] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, ?
[06:50] <riutaro> ubotu, thanx.  I will have a look at ti.
[06:50] <CNTRLX> darn
[06:50] <Rob[Writing] > I love this channel. I always learn so much.
[06:50] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, sorry, dunno what the prob is with your sys
[06:50] <CNTRLX> same
[06:50] <thechris> I have libdvdcss, what do i need to get a DVD menu in gnome's movie player?
[06:50] <ryantucc> wols: the person on the forum said to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst - but typing that into Konqueror gets an error message saying that file does not exist
[06:51] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, i think its a games setting that didnt come off when i kille d it
[06:51] <thechris> It lists the DVD as cdrom0, and selecting the DVD does not work, it tells me to install the correct plugins
[06:51] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, then try restarting xserver.. ctrl-alt-backspace
[06:51] <thechris> but it plays as cdrom0, but doesn't show the menu
[06:51] <wols_> ryantucc: /boot/grub/menu.lst on the harddisk. which is mounted but not on / which means there is something bfore /booot/
[06:52] <CNTRLX> when i have my fiesty cds come. do they have vnc?
[06:52] <wols_> !info vnc
[06:52] <ubotu> Package vnc does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[06:52] <PurpZeY> logan: It could conceivably set at eth1 as opposed to wlan0....just at thought.
[06:52] <Saied> i want emacs text based editor not emacs in X window. which package is for it?
[06:52] <wols_> CNTRLX: ubuntu has vnc yes
[06:52] <ryantucc> wols: I'm sorry, I don't understand
[06:52] <PurpZeY> logan: But, I have to go to bed. sorry man...Good luck, I'm sure you can work it through.
[06:52] <wols_> ryantucc: it's only /boot/.... whne you boot from that harddisk
[06:53] <CNTRLX> is there xdmcp community websites?
[06:53] <w30> ryantucc: just open home icon and put / at the top and hit enter
[06:53] <wols_> your CD is now / and therefore it's /harddis/boot. I dunno what the livecd uses for /harddisk/ tho
[06:53] <Jordan_U> CNTRLX, AFIK yes, in System -> Preferences -> Remote Desktop
[06:54] <scary> hey, I am having a problem where my sound card shows up in my lspci, but not in my aplay -l.  I know the card is supported by alsa, and I already tried installing the newest alsa drivers anyways.  Any suggestions?
[06:54] <Dr_willis>  xdmcp is not really related to vnc CNTRLX  - totally different 'design goals'
[06:54] <CNTRLX> yes i knwo that
[06:54] <thechris> what applications actually play DVDs and support menu
[06:55] <CNTRLX> im just interested in xdmcp right now
[06:55] <ryantucc> wols/w30: okay, I see the boot folder, but there's no menu.lst to edit anywhere
[06:55] <dotpavan> thechris, totem, smplayer
[06:55] <lazaruslupine> Hi everyone... I had jinzora,torrentflux,and phpmyadmin all working, and suddenly only torrentflux works
[06:55] <Jordan_U> !dvd | thechris
[06:55] <ubotu> thechris: 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
[06:55] <wols_> ryantucc: what is your current path?
[06:55] <Dr_willis> CNTRLX,  you dont use xdmcp to share 'existing' desktops either. You use it to get a Local machine to have a 'displayed x session' thats running on a remote box. (normally)
[06:55] <ryantucc> wols: /boot
[06:55] <Ausicaemia> Alright, I have a question.
[06:56] <CNTRLX> ok
[06:56] <Ausicaemia> My monitor complains: "Input Range Not Supported" while usplash or whatever it is called now is doing its thing.
[06:56] <wols_> w30: since you told him how to edit his menu.st from a live cd by going to /bvoot: you help him
[06:56] <CNTRLX> clarification is great
[06:56] <CNTRLX> thanks
[06:56] <Ausicaemia> So is there a way I can tell usplash to use a certain resolution?
[06:56] <CNTRLX> its good if im 4 hours away from my house
[06:56] <Ausicaemia> Or color-depth
[06:56] <Ausicaemia> Or something?
[06:57] <Ausicaemia> Or is there a way I can just have a text bootup sequence rather than USPLASH?
[06:57] <Ausicaemia> That would be a last resort, cause I like usplash.
[06:58] <dotpavan> text boot sequence can be had by disabling usplash in /boot/grub/menu.lst for ubuntu section
[06:58] <konnect> wussup
[06:58] <Jordan_U> riutaro, My friend from Israel says that he can play region 2 DVDs on his region 1 only DVD drive using VLC and libdvdcss2
[06:58] <Ausicaemia> Yeah, but that is a last resort, so is there a way I can fix it without doing that?
[06:58] <dotpavan> Ausicaemia, but be careful while editing that file
[06:58] <Ausicaemia> Is there a way to tell usplash to use a certain resolution/bit depth?
[06:58] <konnect> anyone know a quick way to get my 865pe built on sound to work? I have everything else on my system working perfect but not the sound :-(
[06:58] <dotpavan> Ausicaemia, there is a usplash theme manager or something like that.. cant remember exactly
[06:59] <thechris> the !dvd did not work
[06:59] <Ausicaemia> Yeah I remember that from when I used Breezy
[06:59] <Ausicaemia> Forget what it is called though, I'll have a poke around in synaptic.
[06:59] <thechris> I just want to know how to get to a menu on the DVD
[06:59] <Ausicaemia> Thanks :)
[06:59] <scary> konnect, I am having a sound issue with an intel board also
[06:59] <dotpavan> Ausicaemia, np, just apt-cache search usplash
[06:59] <scary> what is your issue?
[06:59] <Jordan_U> thechris, Use VLC
[07:00] <w30> ryantucc: if you are using (booted) on livecd then you will have to open a terminal and mount your hard drive that is in your box. sudo /mnt , next sudo mkdir hda1 (where 1 is actually the hard drive that your install is in, next sudo mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1, then open up konqueror and type in /mnt/hda1(1 being the appropiate drive again)/boot
[07:00] <palomer> god I love ubuntu
[07:00] <palomer> how do I find out whos my hard disk manufacturer?
[07:01] <Frogzoo> palomer: lshw likely
[07:01] <emptychair> Hey, I just installed ubuntu for the first time. I tried to activate my NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver from the restricted drivers menu, but it won't work. Any solution?
[07:01] <Dr_willis> palomer,  open the case and look? :)
[07:01] <Ausicaemia> Could it be "gnome-splashscreen-manager"?
[07:01] <Dr_willis> well night all.
[07:01] <riutaro> Jordan_U, after installing all gstream codecs I still cannot play region 1 dvds with totem (or any player I have )  the error message for totem is "Totem cannot play this type of media (DVD) because you do not have the appropriate plugins to handle it. / Please install the necessary plugins and restart Totem to be able to play this media" This puzzles me since I can use totem to play jp dvds right.
[07:02] <Frogzoo> palomer: nope, well smartmontools will do it
[07:02] <w30> ryantucc: better yet just type in a terminal kwrite /mnt/hda1/boot/menu.1st
[07:02] <DanaG> Does the drive being RPC1 or RPC2 matter?
[07:02] <emptychair> Hey, I just installed ubuntu for the first time. I tried to activate my NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver from the restricted drivers menu, but it won't work. Any solution?
[07:03] <dotpavan> Ausicaemia, no, that is when gdm is loading
[07:03] <Jordan_U> riutaro, If you can use totem to view any DVD then you have totem-xine installed rather than totem-gstreamer which is default, not that that helps you in any way :(
[07:03] <w30> ryanakca: I mean sudo kwrite /mnt/hda1/boot/menu.1st or else you won't be able to save an edit
[07:03] <Jordan_U> emptychair, Define "won't work"
[07:03] <riutaro> sigh.....
[07:03] <Ausicaemia> Oh, well there's nothing else.
[07:04] <scary> is there another place I can go to get support?  I think having so many users makes it difficult to get help in this irc channel
[07:04] <emptychair> when i click enable, it just instantly returns to the same menu and doesn't change anything
[07:04] <ryantucc> w30: okay, I got a bunch of error messages, the last one saying drkonqi: cannot connect to X server :0.0
[07:04] <riutaro> Jordan, so this can be a problem in the dardware?
[07:04] <narthollis> scary: try searching the channel list for ubuntu
[07:04] <bayziders> For some reason my processor is maxxed out at 100% when all I have is Gaim open... it has never done this before it should be down around 25%. What is wrong?
[07:04] <scary> narthollis:  thank you
[07:04] <ryantucc> w30: It also says "kio (KSycoca): ERROR : No database available" several times
[07:05] <Frogzoo> scary: https://help.ubuntu.com/community
[07:05] <palomer> western digital!
[07:05] <dotpavan> Ausicaemia, try this http://www.debianadmin.com/configure-grub-and-usplash-settings-using-simple-gui-interface-in-ubuntu.html
[07:05] <slantai> i cannot change the default boot os.  i cannot write to boot>grub>menu.1st
[07:05] <Ausicaemia> dotpavan, Thanks a lot.
[07:06] <wols_> slantai: use sudo or gksudo
[07:06] <BachCo^ngCo^ng> he lo
[07:06] <BachCo^ngCo^ng> good afternon
[07:06] <pha|con> When i press the "play" button on my keyboard rythmbox starts.  how do i change the default mp3 play for the OS to be amarok?
[07:07] <pha|con> i've already set the properties of mp3's to start with beep-media-player, so when i double click them individually they start in beep, but i want amarok to start when i press my "music player" hotkey
[07:07] <defrysk> pha|con, righclik an mp3 file select properties, one of the tabs will give you an onption to set whateverplayer as default
[07:07] <emptychair> when i click enable, it just instantly returns to the same menu and doesn't change anything
[07:07] <slantai> i dont understand what your saying
[07:08] <Ausicaemia> Multimedia keys are tricky.
[07:08] <defrysk> pha|con, then you can set it to amarok and thats it :)
[07:08] <Ausicaemia> I never got mine to work properly, besides I use Rhythmbox anyway.
[07:08] <pha|con> defrysk: no, i've already done that
[07:08] <Ausicaemia> defrysk, he's talking about multimedia keys, not file associations.
[07:08] <defrysk> pha|con, no you selected open with
[07:08] <defrysk> ah sorry
[07:08] <defrysk> nm
[07:09] <defrysk> its good morning here :/
[07:09] <pha|con> defrysk: that's for starting individual files.  my keyboard has "hotkeys" that can start individual programs with the press of one button.  pressing my "media player" button starts rythmbox, but i want it to start amarok
[07:09] <pha|con> defrysk: i'm wondering how to tell gnome that i want my default media play to be amarok and not rythmbox
[07:09] <Rob125> Oh, hey. Any way to prevent rhythmbox from starting up when plugging in an ipod, while we're on the topic?
[07:09] <defrysk> pha|con, go to #kubuntu , amarok is a KDE app
[07:10] <w30> ryantucc: ubuntu should have made a backup of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file called xorg.conf.orig or xorg.conf.bak or xorg.conf(something) also /boot/menu.1st should have a backup file also if you changed it. if you can find those you can at a console terminal sudo cat "backup file" > "original file" and restore your original config. Also look in /var/backup for files
[07:10] <Ausicaemia> dotpavan, I love you! hahaha
[07:10] <ericleblanc> hello... ive just installed ubuntu 7.04 on an other pc. I want to install KDE and Gnome on it and since I dont have an internet connection yet, I wanted to install it via the installation disk. Was wondering if ubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-desktop packages are in fact on the installation cd for the server version
[07:10] <defrysk> pha|con, actuallt there is an app for that , one second
[07:10] <Ausicaemia> That does exactly what I was after.
[07:10] <pha|con> defrysk: i think it's more of a matter of telling ubuntu what the default app should be, it's not an option from within amarok
[07:10] <Ausicaemia> Thanks so much.
[07:10] <bruenig> Rob125, in xfce that is customizable, I presume in gnome where they don't want to confuse the user, it is not. You can always disable hal but that might be more than you want
[07:10] <Rob125> fair enough
[07:10] <Rob125> thanks

[07:13] <Ausicaemia> Oh
[07:13] <vexati0n> with the default theme
[07:13] <Ausicaemia> You can fix that.
[07:13] <Ausicaemia> There are tons of posts about that
[07:13] <vexati0n> i know but it would be nice if they would conform to the gtk theme.
[07:13] <Ausicaemia> Let me dig one up.
[07:13] <slantai>  how do i change my default boot os? at the boot menu.  anyone?
[07:14] <_Andrew> pha|con: You can right click->properties->open with
[07:14] <dotpavan> slackmagic, you have to edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst, but be very careful

[07:15] <_Andrew>  I installed Ogre 1.4.2 on Ubuntu using the wiki guide but when I do `pkg-config --libs "OGRE >= 1.4" 2>/dev/null` Its says I have an older version which is true. I also have version 1.2.5 installed. How do I point pkg-config to the newer version I installed?
[07:15] <ryantucc> w30: i looked in /var/backups and /etc/x11
[07:15] <w30> ryantucc: check for a /var/backup directory?
[07:16] <RAOF> DanaG: In particular, not only will it not work, it can seriously break things.
[07:16] <pha|con> defrysk: i just want ubuntu to know that amarok is my mp3 player of choice and not rythmbox
[07:16] <syed1994> when I load the CD and start liveCD, I see stripes of colours and a disroted mouse cursor
[07:16] <defrysk> pha|con, I understand
[07:16] <DanaG> I've never seen a specific explanation of how things break.
[07:16] <vexati0n> Ausicaemia, thanks, i manually installed that patch already. i was just wondering why firefox itself can't conform to the gtk theme
[07:16] <DanaG> s/things break/it breaks things/
[07:16] <RAOF> DanaG: But that's only if /boot is on your raid.
[07:16] <ryantucc> w30: The only backup in /var is called infodir.bak
[07:16] <w30> ryantucc: jus shot that idea then, darn.

[07:17] <dotpavan> syed1994, post your monitor details, someone might be able to help
[07:17] <Flannel> harisamin: You get it to work?
[07:17] <RAOF> DanaG: Grub writes the default to your drive.  Since it doesn't know anything about raid, it can overwrite the raid metadata at the start of the drive.  If it does this, you're in trouble.
[07:17] <harisamin> Flannel: u told me to try instlalling from the network minimal install cd to get rid of debootstrap errors
[07:17] <DanaG> Wow.
[07:17] <scary> how do I get my sound card to show up in the modprobe?  It shows up in the lspci
[07:17] <jetscreamer> passing h&v rates on the boot: line helps
[07:18] <jetscreamer> see also xmodule
[07:18] <DanaG> But it still has the "savedefault" lines!
[07:18] <jetscreamer> for the video bork on livecd
[07:18] <harisamin> Flannel: i dont get it...still same errors...stops at base system....i check the virtual console and it syads segmentations fault at debsootrstrap
[07:18] <Ausicaemia> vexati0n, No idea. Same behavior since version 1.0
[07:18] <harisamin> Flannel: i swear i had ubuntu working on this machine perfectly before
[07:18] <alecw2> Hey, I'm having a problem opening HTML files named as PHP files. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=482718
[07:18] <Ausicaemia> vexati0n, Maybe you should submit a bug report/suggestion to the devs.
[07:18] <slantai> dotpavan: i tried but i dont have the right permission
[07:18] <harisamin> Flannel: any idea what could have happened to it?
[07:19] <Ausicaemia> vexati0n, But then again they probably get that one alot.
[07:19] <Flannel> harisamin: No idea.  Sorry.
[07:19] <harisamin> Flannel: do u know where i can report this?
[07:19] <slantai> dotpavan:it says it was created by owner but i installed the system
[07:19] <pha|con> dotpavan: how do i edit the default media player?
[07:20] <dotpavan> slantai, I dont remember what the issue was? scrolling didnt help
[07:20] <w30> ryantucc: one more idea. copy the xorg.conf file on your live cd over the one on your hard drive by doing the sudo cat livecdfile > harddrivefile
[07:20] <defrysk> pha|con, http://hocwp.free.fr/xbindkeys/xbindkeys.html
[07:20] <mikeypizano> can i place a ubuntu logo on site?
[07:20] <Flannel> harisamin: It'd be at launchpad.  That's the bugtracker for ubuntu
[07:20] <slantai> changing the default boot os
[07:20] <slantai> dotpavan:changing the default boot os
[07:20] <PirateHead> I doubt that this problem has to do with Ubuntu, but it has happened since I installed Ubuntu on my laptop. I used to be able to use bootable CDs and DVDs to do recoveries, test out new distros, and so on. I installed Ubuntu using the LiveCD. However, lately I the computer will not boot from bootable media even though the boot order lists the CD/DVD drive before the hard disk. Is there...
[07:21] <PirateHead> ...anything else I should be looking at? Could Ubuntu have done this? Is it a BIOS issue, a hardware issue?
[07:21] <w30> ryantucc: that might get you back to your original config.
[07:21] <antonioabdulio> Hi to everyone
[07:21] <harisamin> can anyone in help me.....whenever i try to install ubuntu..during the base system installation a get a deboostrap error any HELP?
[07:21] <wehttamb> i cant get skype to work
[07:21] <dotpavan> slantai, oh, you have to do gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[07:21] <alecw2> Hey, I'm having a problem opening HTML files named as PHP files. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=482718
[07:21] <wehttamb> when i call someone i can hear them but they cant hear me
[07:21] <heatman> hello... ive just installed ubuntu 7.04 on an other pc. I want to install KDE and Gnome on it and since I dont have an internet connection yet, I wanted to install it via the installation disk. Was wondering if ubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-desktop packages are in fact on the installation cd for the server version because apt-get says it cant find package
[07:22] <slantai> dotpavan: what is gksudo
[07:22] <dotpavan> slantai, sudo for gnome gui apps
[07:22] <PirateHead> slantai: it is a sudo helper that uses a GTK window to ask for your password.
[07:22] <wehttamb> in volume control i if i turn up the mic volume i can hear myself
[07:23] <jetscreamer> you can just sudo application from an xterm
[07:24] <ryantucc> w30: I understand what you're saying to do (I think) - but what do I type in the terminal? "sudo cat xorg.conf ?"
[07:24] <ryantucc> w30: Sorry, I'm a noob
[07:24] <Flannel> jetscreamer, dotpavan, it sets up the environments more appropriately for GUI apps.  Not just a GUI password prompt.
[07:24] <slantai> dotpavan: thanks guys for you help.  i think i need to read up on thoes
[07:25] <alecw2> Hey, I'm having a problem opening HTML files named as PHP files. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=482718
[07:25] <DanaG> !gksudo
[07:25] <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
[07:25] <antonioabdulio> which is the command to open a file?? like /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:26] <Jordan_U> antonioabdulio, gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:26] <syed1994> I have a problem, when I sucessfully load Ubuntu, I see that my screen is all messed
[07:26] <antonioabdulio> thanks Jordan_U
[07:26] <Jordan_U> antonioabdulio, You can also use System -> Administration -> Software Sources
[07:26] <antonioabdulio> Thanks again!!
[07:26] <Jordan_U> syed1994, Messed up in what way?
[07:27] <Jordan_U> antonioabdulio, np :)
[07:27] <syed1994> umm, zoomed in and color disrotation
[07:27] <PirateHead> I used to be able to use bootable CDs and DVDs to do recoveries, test out new distros, and so on. I installed Ubuntu using the LiveCD. However, lately I the computer will not boot from bootable media even though the boot order lists the CD/DVD drive before the hard disk. Is there anything else I should be looking at? Could Ubuntu have done this? Is it a BIOS issue, a hardware issue?
[07:28] <jetscreamer> i'd be looking at the bios or the hardware
[07:28] <antonioabdulio> Jordan_U: do you know where I can find those of basic terminal commands??
[07:28] <Jordan_U> PirateHead, AFIK Ubuntu could not have done that, it is like you said probably a BIOS or other hardware issue
[07:28] <Jordan_U> !bash | antonioabdulio
[07:28] <ubotu> antonioabdulio: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[07:28] <jetscreamer> #bash
[07:29] <pha|con> defrysk: thanks.  xbindkeys worked like a charm.
[07:29] <PirateHead> Jordan_U: is it the sort of problem that my local Circuit City or Geek Squad could probably fix for me? I don't know where to start when it comes to diagnosing BIOS problems.
[07:29] <pha|con> it'd still be nice to have a dialog that lets you change defaults easily, tho. :)
[07:29] <jetscreamer> syed1994: it's using the incorrect driver/other... google knoppix cheat codes (and maybe ubuntu cheat codes) and use a couple (hit f6 when the cd boots)
[07:30] <arrozconevan> can someone help me?
[07:30] <w30> ryantucc: cat is a command that spits out the contents of a file, the > means to send it to the file you name after the > so sudo cat /media/cdrom/xorg.config > /etc/X11/xorg.conf would write the cd file over the hard drive file if you are booted in your hard drive operating system.
[07:30] <Jordan_U> PirateHead, First, I wouldn't trust Geek Squad with anything ( I have heard very bad things and knew a cocky idiot that was able to get a job there )
[07:30] <Xenguy> !cli
[07:30] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[07:30] <jetscreamer> hey maybe i can get a job at geek squad then :)
[07:31] <scary> could be a cd
[07:31] <DanaG> Oh, for the BIOS thing: try writing down any setting you know you changed, and then reset everything.  Then go back and set what you need to set.
[07:31] <PirateHead> Jordan_U: I am naturally suspicious of the Geek Squad and such services, but it would be nice to talk to somebody who has experience fixing these sorts of problems.
[07:31] <Jordan_U> PirateHead, Does your CD ROM drive work when booted into an OS?
[07:31] <arrozconevan> hey can someone help me out real quickly lol
[07:32] <Jordan_U> !ask | arrozconevan
[07:32] <ubotu> arrozconevan: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:32] <PirateHead> Jordan_U: once I'm in kernel land, the CD drive is perfectly accessable.
[07:32] <jetscreamer> usually not when the informative request is phrased thusly
[07:32] <Ausicaemia> Hmmm
[07:32] <PirateHead> Jordan_U: it's only before control is handed over to Grub that it can't seem to see the drive.
[07:32] <arrozconevan> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EasyCam i need to figure  out if that is for feisty fawn
[07:32] <DanaG> It turned out to be the hard drive's jumper: set to Master with Slave, rather than Single as it should have been.
[07:32] <w30> ryantucc: if you are booted on the cdrom then you might be better off to copy the file off the cdrom to a usbstick or floppy and then boot up the operating system on the hard drive and do the cat > bit being booted in the diskdrive operating system
[07:32] <arrozconevan> i knew that would piss you guys off heh, but i asked a few times a while back and no one answered
[07:32] <Ausicaemia> Is there a way to tell the Garbage Bin to always empty itself as a super-user/root
[07:32] <Ausicaemia> ?
[07:33] <serishema-laptop> you shouldn't be logging into your desktop as root directly. it's a security risk
[07:33] <Ausicaemia> Yeah duh
[07:33] <Ausicaemia> I don't do that
[07:33] <Ausicaemia> But I'm sick of getting "you can't empty this from the trash cause the permissions are wrong"
[07:33] <Ausicaemia> So is there a way to tell it to always empty the trash a superuser
[07:33] <Ausicaemia> Or root?
[07:34] <ryantucc> w30: well, I don't have any usbsticks and this laptop doesn't have a floppy drive (I don't have any floppies anyway), so I'll try the other thing
[07:34] <Jordan_U> arrozconevan, Ahh, I am not sure how much I trust a guide that says to use a debian repository, though the stuff on wiki.ubuntu.com is usually good
[07:34] <imbecile> hey guys, i was wondering how to change icon themes
[07:34] <arrozconevan> im trying to figure out how to install my Logitech Quickam 4000 Pro

[07:34] <xbadger> my screen is off center in festy
[07:34] <Ausicaemia> imbecile: System > Preferences > Theme > Customize > Icon Tab
[07:35] <Ausicaemia> xbadger: its your monitor, not feisty, configure your monitor properly.
[07:35] <Jordan_U> Ausicaemia, Just sudo rm ~/.trash
[07:35] <imbecile> Ausicaemia,  so i am supposed to add the .theme file?
[07:35] <ryantucc> w30: It said "bash: /etc/X11/xorg.conf: Permission denied"

[07:36] <bruenig> I would say that is an issue
[07:36] <Takesinn> Ey guys
[07:36] <w30> ryantucc: without a graphical desktop you won't get automount of your cdrom on hard drive boot
[07:36] <xbadger> no ausecamia i'm dual booting with windowze and in ubuntu my screen is off center
[07:36] <Ausicaemia> imbecile: Yeah, in the icon tab there is a button that says "Install"
[07:36] <Ausicaemia> xbadger: It is still your monitor.
[07:36] <bruenig> w30, not true, hal works without graphical desktop
[07:36] <jetscreamer> !botsnack
[07:36] <ubotu> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[07:36] <Takesinn> Got a question here. I just setup Ubuntu and I want to secure it. Whats the best firewall solution?
[07:36] <syed1994> I get a disroted screen just red stripes and I am using an ATI graphics card FYI
[07:36] <Ausicaemia> You'll have to re-adjust it for Ubuntu.
[07:36] <xbadger> in dapper was good
[07:36] <bruenig> !firewall | Takesinn
[07:36] <ubotu> Takesinn: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[07:37] <Ausicaemia> xbadger: Well change resolutions in Ubuntu to match the ones in Doze?
[07:37] <w30> bruenig: thanks, I didn't know that
[07:37] <xbadger> yes
[07:37] <xbadger> can i talk with you private
[07:37] <bruenig> kind of pointless without though, generally, a simple mount /dev/whatever will do
[07:37] <bruenig> and since you have the command line right there
[07:37] <ryantucc> w30: ? I can't get to the graphical desktop, I can only load off a kubuntu install disk I burned
[07:38] <xbadger> I tried xvidtune but everytime i reboot i must run xvidtune again
[07:38] <xbadger> i guess is something about the new xorg that comes with festy
[07:39] <xbadger> i tried to add modeline to xorg.conf but with no lucj
[07:39] <xbadger> luck
[07:39] <w30> ryantucc: you can't get to a login prompt in your installed system?
[07:39] <xbadger> the sequence is overpassed somehow
[07:40] <Jordan_U> xbadger, Did you try: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:40] <Jordan_U> ?
[07:40] <ryantucc> w30: correct (you can read what happens here: http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3084454.0)
[07:40] <xbadger> yes i tryed jordan
[07:40] <xbadger> thanks for the advice
[07:40] <xbadger> i tried but i guess is a bug in the new xorg.conf
[07:41] <DanaG> botsnack?
[07:41] <jetscreamer> !botsnack
[07:41] <ubotu> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[07:41] <imbecile> Ausicaemia,  do i unpackage the icon theme file?
[07:41] <Aldo> ckemi
[07:41] <jetscreamer> try sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf instead... make a backup first.
[07:41] <xbadger> i tried 1024x768@85Hz which my monitor supports well but the screen is right centered
[07:42] <xbadger> is a common problem on ubuntuforums.org
[07:42] <jetscreamer> apt-get install hwinfo && hwinfo --monitor
[07:42] <syed1994> Can anyone help me? I still get a disroted screen even with a boot option.
[07:42] <DanaG> !gksudo
[07:42] <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
[07:42] <jetscreamer> look at the bottom, add the v&h rates to xorg.conf under the monitor
[07:42] <harisamin> Flannel: are u there
[07:42] <harisamin> Flannel: i think i just found something
[07:42] <Flannel> harisamin: I am.  Any progress?
[07:42] <xbadger> i'll try thanks
[07:42] <harisamin> Flannel: but i need your help understanding it and implemmenting it
[07:42] <Takesinn> Ubuntu is coming along nicely
[07:43] <jetscreamer> good idea, preface nothing with sudo in channel
[07:43] <Takesinn> Whats so brand new about the unstable version anyways?
[07:43] <Flannel> Takesinn: you mean 7.10?
[07:43] <defrysk> Takesinn, ask in #ubuntu+1
[07:43] <Flannel> Takesinn: er, gutsy?  new versions of stuff.  Check the release notes for specifics.
[07:44] <xbadger> if anyone has a good way to add modeline in xorg.conf without beeing bypassed i'll apreciate posted it on ubuntuforums.org
[07:44] <harisamin> Flannel:  check this page out and check out the link that this post has to a solution http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=17860
[07:45] <w30> ryantucc: that the one about you can use your daughter's account?
[07:45] <harisamin> Flannel: its basically saying how its not really a CD or network problem but a problem with the ubuntu parittioner and formatting issues....i think this might be true coz i've checked the cds that i've burned on other powerpc's and they seem fine on those machines
[07:45] <Flannel> harisamin: Alright, so what that is saying is, a few screens beforehand, where you setup your partitions, you should delete all partitions (that you're going to use for linux), and then let the installer partition fresh ones.
[07:45] <harisamin> Flannel: okay i think i know what u mean
[07:46] <ryantucc> w30: no I installed KDE, and it worked fine, then couldn't get to login after restarting (no daughters that I know of...)
[07:46] <harisamin> Flannel: i'm going to reboot and start this minimal installtion again...tell me how to deal with the partioning program again ok hold on
[07:46] <syed1994> Can anyone help me?
[07:46] <aidan> how do I install Perl::String/CRC32 with aptitude?
[07:47] <w30> ryantucc: ok I got the wrong forum posting.
[07:47] <harisamin> Flannel: do u think its worth first formatting the hard drive in OS X and then try the paritionoaer?
[07:47] <Flannel> harisamin: no.  That's exactly what it tells you not to do.
[07:48] <ryantucc> w30: crap, sorry, I linked to the wrong post: it's at http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3084481.0
[07:48] <nevets> HI all
[07:48] <aidan> ah found it apt-get install libstring-crc32-perl
[07:48] <harisamin> Flannel: ok but what i dont understand is that i sually let the guided paritioning tool do everything....so i dunno whats going on quite exactly
[07:48] <nevets> ubuntu-server is empty   does anybody here know anything about the server edition?
[07:48] <Flannel> harisamin: delete all linux partitions, change screens to write changes to disk.  Then go back to the partitioner screen, and recreate all the partitions.
[07:48] <syed1994> nvm i started it on safe mode
[07:48] <imownbey> how can I install the "mail" command?
[07:48] <imownbey> what package is that in?
[07:49] <harisamin> Flannel: ok wait i'll give it a shot
[07:51] <nevets> ksex.com
[07:51] <GrubChub> Is there any good resource good nice Desktop Backgrounds?
[07:52] <harisamin> Flannel: there is also this 32 kb Apple partition i think it is for yaboot loader...should i delete that too along with the linux paritions....write changes to disk and then let the partiooner recreate paritions using guided partitioning?
[07:52] <Flannel> harisamin: no.  Just remove the linux ones.  Leave the yaboot thing.
[07:52] <harisamin> Flannel: ok
[07:53] <CarlF1> top shows load 2.9, and it seems kacpid is using all my cpu.  feisty.  help?
[07:54] <w30> ryantucc: your post is by Tucci528 ?
[07:54] <nevets> hi
[07:54] <ryantucc> w30: yes, correct
[07:54] <imownbey> anyone know?
[07:56] <harisamin> Flannel: so i deleted the linux parttitions and then did finish paritionind and write changes to disk...and then it gave me a red screen saying NO ROOT PARTIIION DEFINED...and took me back to the partitioner when i hit continue
[07:56] <harisamin> ?
[07:56] <w30> ryantucc: those error messages a way over my head.
[07:56] <harisamin> Flannel: you think its good to create the paritions using guided partiitiong now?
[07:56] <kandrews> imownbey: did you try mailx or mailutils? That is what was suggested when I entered the mail command on Feisty.
[07:56] <Flannel> harisamin: right.  You just erased all your linux partitions.  You epxected a no root partition error ;)  Sure, guided should be fine
[07:57] <harisamin> Flannel: ok i'm gonna give it a shot now
[07:57] <w30> ryantucc: I think you have something wrong besides xorg or X
[07:57] <ryantucc> w30: thanks for trying, any suggestions on a better place to get help?
[07:57] <imownbey> ah that worked
[07:57] <imownbey> thanks
[07:57] <kandrews> no problem
[07:57] <imownbey> and then what package is chkconfig in?
[07:58] <w30> ryantucc: how much have you got in this install, can you afford to reinstall?
[07:58] <DanaG> That site name seems NSFW.
[07:58] <DanaG> oops, I'm behind.
[07:58] <ryantucc> w30: I could reinstall, but only as a last resort, I've got some files I'd hate to lose
[07:59] <w30> ryantucc: ok
[08:00] <teenbeat2007> anyone knows how to play bf2 in linux
[08:00] <teenbeat2007> i tryed winex but cant get it installed
[08:00] <ryantucc> w30: there's no way to get at my files now, is there? I have an external hard drive, and if I could access them from the install disk and mount the external hard drive, I could backup what I need to keep. Is that plausible?
[08:02] <ryantucc> w30: or could I add a new kubuntu installation on a new partition, copy files from the old installation, then delete it?
[08:02] <CarlF1> ryantucc: what format is the external?  (ntfs may be a problem)
[08:02] <w30> ryantucc: you can use the live cd and get the files off the hard drive if you know chich ones you want.
[08:03] <ryantucc> carlf1: I honestly have no idea - I had to reformat the hard drive when I got it (which someone on this channel walked me through), and I think I either changed it from ntfs or to it
[08:03] <CarlF1> ryantucc: did you format it using linux or windows?
[08:04] <harisamin> Flannel: no luck same problem
[08:04] <ryantucc> w30: assuming I can do a folder instead of a single file, that would work
[08:04] <ryantucc> carlf1: linux
[08:04] <w30> ryantucc: just boot the livecd , mount the hard drive that the files are on and mount the external hard drive and copy the files from the hard drive to the external drive.
[08:04] <CarlF1> ryantucc: the only problem with ntfs is it will be mounted read-only, and you ... never mind.  linux is proably ext2/3, so you can do as you sugested -
[08:05] <Jordan_U> CarlF1, Actually, I was surprised to find that ntfs-3g is used by default by the Feisty LiveCD, and automatically mounts NTFS rw
[08:05] <harisamin> Flannel: i really think that it has to be related with the partitioning...is there a way to have the installer not partition and that i can parition the drive for linux using some other program and then have the installer just copy and install files?
[08:05] <ryantucc> carlf1: thanks
[08:05] <CarlF1> Jordan_U: nice.  was wondering if that had happened yet
[08:06] <Flannel> harisamin: sure.  Partition it with [anything]  and then when you get to the partitning screen, you just select your partitions, choose "use this partition" or whatever.  there's options sans partitioning.
[08:06] <Jordan_U> CarlF1, It is interesting, because even though ntfs-3g is there by default on the LiveCD, it isn't installed by default
[08:07] <harisamin> Flannel: do u know of a paritiooning application for linux parititons that i can use in os X?
[08:07] <CarlF1> ryantucc: also, is sounds like you should do this: (after backing up the files to external HD)  make a new partition for / and use your 'current' partition as /home (and then later clean out all the junk you don't want
[08:07] <Flannel> harisamin: You can get a Gparted liveCD.  But I imagine there are OSX partitioners that will write ext3
[08:08] <CarlF1> ryantucc: having a seperate /home makes it easy to "re-install the OS" and keep your own files
[08:08] <ryantucc> w30: I plugged in the external hard drive but it isn't appearing on the desktop anywhere, and I don't know how to mount the internal hard drive
[08:09] <ryantucc> carlf1: okay, I think I understand what you're saying, I'll try doing that once I get this sorted out
[08:09] <Frogzoo> separate /home really ought to be part of the stock install, imo
[08:10] <ryantucc> w30: nevermind, got the external drive mounted, I think, hang on
[08:10] <w30> ryantucc: probably the internal drive is /dev/hda1 and the external drive is probably usb and should show up as /media/usbdisk
[08:10] <w30> ryantucc: how many partitions do you have on the internal hard drive
[08:11] <ryantucc> w30: just one, I think
[08:11] <ryantucc> w30 not seeing hda1 in /dev, but let me look around, it's a big folder
[08:12] <jetscreamer> sda maybe
[08:12] <w30> ryantucc: then try at a command prompt sudo mkdir /mnt/hda1 , then sudo mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1
[08:13] <w30> ryantucc: then open kongureror and see if you can copy over the files yo need
[08:13] <ryantucc> w30: "mkdir/mnt/hda1: command not found"
[08:14] <jetscreamer> try a space
[08:14] <jetscreamer> mkdir /mnt/hda1
[08:14] <w30> ryantucc: sudo mkdir /mnt/hda1
[08:14] <ryantucc> w30, aaah, okay
[08:14] <jetscreamer> are ya'll sure it's not sda?
[08:14] <ryantucc> and jetscreamer, thanks - I do have sda files in /dev
[08:16] <jetscreamer> less /boot/grub/device.map may tell you
[08:16] <w30> jetscreamer: probably the external drive is sda but it automounted with no problem : he's going after his internal hard drive now
[08:16] <jetscreamer> w30: all i know is ubuntu made all my hd's sd not hd
[08:16] <ryantucc> "mount: special device /dev/hda1 does not exist"
[08:16] <jetscreamer> change the h to s and try again maybe
[08:17] <jetscreamer> hit up arrow
[08:17] <w30> ryantucc: jetscreamer says try sda1?
[08:17] <jetscreamer> cat /proc/partitions
[08:18] <r4ym4n> my wireless isn't working, i have bcm 4306
[08:18] <jetscreamer> fdisk -l /dev/sda
[08:18] <ryantucc> going through both those commands with sda1 did not give an error message, so I guess it worked?
[08:19] <jetscreamer> sda not sda1
[08:19] <jetscreamer> for the fdisk
[08:19] <DisabledDuck> is SSL installed by default?
[08:19] <r4ym4n> my wireless isn't working.....can anyone help me?? i have bcm4306
[08:19] <jetscreamer> it's not a 'worked' it's an informational thing
[08:20] <scary> anyone willing to help me solve my difficult sound issues
[08:20] <scary> I've tried the obvious, but no luck
[08:20] <r4ym4n> are you using pci?
[08:20] <scary> yea
[08:20] <r4ym4n> or integrated
[08:20] <scary> sry
[08:20] <ryantucc> jetscreamer: he he, then I guess it didn't work, it just dropped me to a new line in the terminal
[08:20] <scary> integrated
[08:20] <r4ym4n> i mean....motherboard or pci...
[08:20] <scary> my pci is an xfi, so integrated
[08:20] <jetscreamer> ryanakca: what does cat /proc/partitions return
[08:20] <scary> I have an integrated intel-hda
[08:20] <jetscreamer> snd_intel_hda iirc
[08:21] <r4ym4n> well iono...if your using a pci card for a sound
[08:21] <jetscreamer> or snd_hda_intel
[08:21] <r4ym4n> i know that one
[08:21] <scary> I reinstalled the drivers already

[08:24] <jetscreamer> lsmod | grep snd_
[08:24] <cyberalleygu3> I can't get my local mirror to be used for net installs. It works for updates just fine.
[08:24] <DisabledDuck> ssl
[08:24] <jetscreamer> DisabledDuck: maybe #apache i dunno
[08:25] <jetscreamer> ryantucc: well it's either sda or sdb
[08:25] <jetscreamer> try mount -t auto /dev/sda1 /mnt  ...
[08:25] <jetscreamer> then try sda5 and sdb1
[08:26] <jetscreamer> it's one of those
[08:26] <w30> ryantucc: probably sda1 , sda2 is probably /boot
[08:26] <jetscreamer> sda5 is 'probably' your swap
[08:26] <jetscreamer> ah
[08:26] <jetscreamer> no idea
[08:27] <jetscreamer> 2 is an extended partition

[08:27] <TaJMoX> darn you ubotu
[08:27] <ryantucc> jetscreamer: doing that command with sda1 just drops me to a new command line, no other change obvious
[08:28] <jetscreamer> ryanakca: the mount command?
[08:28] <cyberalleygu3> Anyone know about net installs using a local mirror?
[08:28] <jetscreamer> type mount ... if sda1 is / then it's already mounted

[08:30] <jetscreamer> you're trying to mount the external hd ?
[08:30] <DisabledDuck> what is a good IRC client?
[08:30] <jetscreamer> irssi or xchat
[08:30] <ryantucc> jetscreamer: no, I already did the external, trying to mount the internal - how would I get to it if it was currently mounted?
[08:30] <jussi01> DisabledDuck: xchat is nice
[08:30] <jetscreamer> type mount
[08:30] <jetscreamer> see where it's mounted
[08:30] <PIPBoy> can anyone in the room help me with either updating my 1.4 java or installing java 1.5?

[08:31] <Frogzoo> DisabledDuck: irssi is good cos it's text based & you can run it through screen
[08:31] <Flannel> imbecile: you mean to delete?
[08:31] <ryantucc> jetscreamer: whole bunch of stuff came up, hold on, let me look at it
[08:31] <PIPBoy> Flannel, ive tried that, and i have no idea how it updates :|
[08:31] <jetscreamer> ls ~/Desktop/.Trash probably
[08:31] <imbecile> Flannel,  yeah, is that the command?
[08:31] <Flannel> PIPBoy: Just install sun-java6-jre or whatever
[08:31] <Flannel> imbecile: rm
[08:31] <imbecile> Flannel,  thanks
[08:32] <jetscreamer> no, ~/.Trash
[08:32] <PIPBoy> Flannel, will it take over my old 1.4 installation?
[08:32] <PIPBoy> er overwrite?
[08:32] <Flannel> imbecile: that doesn't use the trash, it removes it entirely.
[08:32] <Flannel> PIPBoy: How did you install 1.4?
[08:32] <jetscreamer> ls?
[08:32] <Flannel> PIPBoy: er, wait.  What version of ubuntu are you using?
[08:32] <slestak> found out a strangr thing with sshfs.  anyone use it?  If you try to mount a dir that doesnt exist on the remote server, it will continue and mount, df get some wierd file handle, and its in mtrab, but you cannot umount it.
[08:32] <PIPBoy> Flannel, I'm using Ubuntu studion 7.04 (fiesty)
[08:32] <Flannel> PIPBoy: How on earth did you get 1.4 on that?
[08:33] <imbecile> Flannel,  what im trying to do is add a trashcan to my desktop
[08:33] <PIPBoy> Flannel, I'm not sure... i think it was a plugin...
[08:33] <Rob125> imbecile: ah. Go into system tools -> configuration editor
[08:33] <Flannel> PIPBoy: a plugin?  What have you done so far?  plugin for what?
[08:33] <Rob125> choose 'apps', then find nautilus
[08:33] <Takesinn> http://www.ubuntugames.org/ <-Should be in Ingles
[08:33] <Rob125> it should be in one of those --> a little checkbox
[08:34] <scary> ping: crimsun:  I am having issues with my snd-intel-hda card where the alsa config does not detect the card, after reinstalling alsa.  any suggestions?
[08:34] <PIPBoy> Flannel, well im not sure honestly, to my memory i think it actually did come with 1.4 i dont recall installing java at all
[08:34] <OmegaConsole> lol wow. I am actually using an cli irc client.. sweet
[08:34] <OmegaConsole> help
[08:34] <Rob125> imbecile: it's in 'apps' -> 'nautilus' -> 'desktop' -> trash_icon_visible (check)
[08:34] <OmegaConsole> oops.
[08:34] <imbecile> Rob125,  WHERE IS SYSTEM TOOLS?
[08:34] <jetscreamer> scary: apt-get install modconf and browse the sound
[08:35] <jetscreamer> gnome-system-tools ?
[08:35] <OmegaConsole> -help
[08:35] <imbecile> oops sorry
[08:35] <doctapeppa> is there a way to view the last few packages installed with apt-get?
[08:35] <scary> jetscreamer: thank you
[08:35] <w30> ryantucc: internal is probably /media/usbdisk or /mnt/usbdisk
[08:35] <OmegaConsole> Gah, sorry. Trying to learn how to turn off leave and join messages in irssi
[08:35] <Rob125> imbecile: should be in your apps menu.
[08:35] <Flannel> PIPBoy: Do you mean 4.1?  7.04 doesn't have java.  You should ask in #ubuntustudio, see if theyve got any java by default.  gcj (the open source java) is version 4.1, and it's installed by default (I believe)
[08:35] <jetscreamer> see also /usr/bin/gnome-control-center
[08:35] <OmegaConsole> Does anyone know how to acess the menu or anything in irssi?
[08:35] <w30> ryantucc: also it should be an icon on the desktop
[08:36] <NaNO2x> having a problem of when I boot it hangs on checking root file system and takes a minute or two then continues.  Is there a way to find out why its doing this and/or stop it from checking?
[08:36] <jetscreamer> w30: an internal wouldn't say usb eh
[08:36] <Flannel> OmegaConsole: /ignore -channels #channel1 #channel2 #channel3 #etc * JOINS PARTS
ls /var/cache/apt/arch*
[08:36] <Flannel> OmegaConsole: there is no menu in irssi. It's all done by command line and configuration files.
[08:36] <logan> How do I find the local IP of the computer I am on?
[08:36] <w30> jetscreamer: the external would be if its usb, right?
[08:36] <OmegaConsole> Flannel: thanks... this is strange.. but cool :)
[08:36] <jetscreamer> ipconfig.. or ifconfig i get confused
[08:36] <slestak> logan: sudo ifconfig
[08:36] <jetscreamer> yes the external
[08:36] <ryantucc> jetscreamer/w30: definitely not on the desktop, a good bit of information came up in the terminal
[08:37] <PIPBoy> flannel, im quite sure its 1.4, and i also have the sun jre 5 installed btw...maybe i installed something that caused a conflict...how do i uninstall my old 1.4 and ill just install the jre 6 packages from synaptic
hit ctrl alt F1 on boot
[08:37] <scary> jetscreamer: no device is found
[08:37] <poweruser1> How would I change the name of my root acct? I can do that without creating a new one right?
 netstat -n
[08:37] <computersurgeon> yo
[08:37] <jetscreamer> man useradd
[08:38] <OmegaCenti> Sorry Flannel, its hard telling how to copy and paste in irssi,I need to paste that to tty2 from tty7, is this possible?
[08:38] <NaNO2x> insmod: i turned off quiet to find out where it was hanging, wont ctrl alt f1 put me into terminal
[08:38] <w30> ryantucc: you refered to the external or internal? I'm lost
[08:38] <Flannel> poweruser1: You don't change the name of root.  Whatare you trying to do?  Ubuntu doesn't use root by default, you know.
[08:38] <jetscreamer> use gpm to copy/paste in console
  well tty log as it scrolls
[08:38] <ryantucc> jetscreamer/w30: I see "/dev/bus/usb on /proc/bus/usb type none (rw, bind)", "/dev/sdb1 on /media disk type  ext3 (rw, noexec, nosuid, nodev, sync, data=ordered), "/dev/sda1 on mnt/sda1 type ext3 (rw) and "/dev/sda1 on mnt type ext3 (rw)"
[08:38] <OmegaCenti> jetscreamer: gpm?
[08:38] <randoman> hey guys
[08:39] <ryantucc> w30: I'm doing the internal now - the external is mounted and is on my desktop and appears to be working fine
[08:39] <Flannel> poweruser1: your first account isn't a root account.  It simply has admin powers.
 well tty log as it scrolls
[08:39] <insmod> sorry
[08:39] <OmegaCenti> insmod: it keeps scrolling like it wont stop
[08:39] <ruff|away> ok Flannel thanks
[08:39] <jetscreamer> ryantucc: umount /mnt
[08:39] <poweruser1> Er, not my root.
[08:39] <randoman> sorry to bug, but does anyone know what file i have to edit to add option gconf. to get compiz-icon to work with compiz fusion?
[08:39] <poweruser1> But is it possible to change the name?
what
[08:39] <OmegaConsole> insmod: sorry, probably wrong topic, looks like I just have to deal with it:)
[08:40] <jetscreamer> randoman: you use gconf to edit what you need to add that to
[08:40] <OmegaConsole> and read the manual for irssi, well, at least more than I did to connect and set a nickname
what happens
[08:40] <jetscreamer> poweruser1: yes it's possible
[08:40] <whta> will compiz fusion take over the beryl synaptic repos when it's released?
[08:40] <PIPBoy> flannel, actually i just checked i installed some java 1.4 plugin...
[08:40] <ryantucc> jetscreamer: "umount: /mnt is not in the fstab (and you are not root)
[08:40] <w30> ryantucc: internal should be /mnt/sda1 , try ls /mnt/sda1
what happens
[08:40] <jetscreamer> ryantucc: as root
[08:40] <Flannel> PIPBoy: whats the package name?
[08:40] <OmegaCenti> insmod: Sorry hes gone :)
[08:40] <jetscreamer> sudo
[08:41] <NaNO2x> insmod: ok well what should i do just reboot here and watch that? what should i be looking for etc
[08:41] <Flannel> poweruser1: Sure, you can change the name of any account.
[08:41] <randoman> so gconf compiz-icon.py
[08:41] <OmegaCenti> insmod: I was just trying to get all of the parts and joins out of the area, I am going to go read the manual now
[08:41] <PIPBoy> Flannel, its not a package in synaptic i think its a firefox plugin im not sure tho, lemme browse around and check it
[08:41] <ryantucc> sudo jetscreamer: "sudo umount /mnt" just brings a new command line
 where it stops or pauses
[08:41] <OmegaCenti> Flannel: is there a better irc client for command line
[08:41] <poweruser1> From what menu?
[08:41] <scary> jetscreamer: no device is found
[08:41] <mrnutz> hi everyone: i need help with ntop - how can i get it to show me usage per IP breakdown instead of from which external source it pulled what...so i've got 192.168.0.1 as gateway - but in my test - i viewed photos from 192.168.0.9 - it only shows the FQDN name and the usage - but not the IP internally for that usage - i want to connect usage to IP internally with ntop
[08:41] <jetscreamer> ryantucc: if you type mount /mnt should be unmounted now
[08:41] <Flannel> OmegaCenti: the other is bitchx.  Although personally I prefer irssi.
[08:41] <NaNO2x> insmod: all right, brb
[08:42] <OmegaCenti> Flannel: Thanks :) I will try both to see which I like. much appreciated Flannel for all your help over the last few weeks :)
[08:42] <ryantucc> jetscreamer: "mount: can't find /mnt in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab"
[08:42] <OmegaCenti> I am really enjoying my experience as a linux user with Ubuntu... Keep up the great work community!
[08:42] <scary> what does modconf do?
[08:43] <jetscreamer> scary: i'm not sure what modules you need to load. but they 'should' be autoloaded on_boot by udev/hal , but aren't. 'maybe' you don't have support in the kernel for your soundchip, but i do not know. modconf will load the proper driver for you, IF you know which one it is, and if it's in the kernel
[08:43] <OmegaCenti> scary: not sure if you know but there is a whatis command to tell you what a command does in a terminal
[08:43] <PIPBoy> OmegaCenti, just remember no matter what you think you know little of, you can always help out in the community somehow! :) glad your enjoying ubuntu
[08:43] <jetscreamer> modconf loads/unloads kernel modules
[08:43] <DisabledDuck> /whois $me
[08:43] <TaJMoX> Does anyone know where I can get UbuntUSB
[08:43] <jetscreamer> kinda ugly, but functional
[08:43] <ryantucc> w30: "ls /mnt/sda1" appears to bring up a list of file and folder names
[08:44] <OmegaCenti> PIPBoy: Very much so :) I have tried helping 4 people out with problems with the intel integrated iXXX video cards and modifying 915resolution and xorg.conf :)
[08:44] <ryantucc> w30: bin, dev, initrd, vmlinuz, etc.
[08:44] <jetscreamer> ryantucc: so if you type mount , is it mounted? good /mnt seems to be unmounted or you wouldn't see that ls of /mnt/sda1
[08:44] <gaten> i just installed a grsec kernel, and now on boot i get the error: /bin/sh: can't access tty: job control turned off. and it drops me into a 'BusyBox' shell. any ideas?
[08:44] <scary> jetscreamer:  thanks, I seem to be blind.  This is how I add the intel-hda audio
[08:44] <OmegaCenti> Right now my main concern is finding something to eat in nethack...
[08:44] <PIPBoy> OmegaCenti, Awesome :) keep it up, no matter the number. Just remember you helped those folks and you made their day!
[08:45] <jetscreamer> ok that is what you want to copy to a new place right ryantucc ?
i use it works great -- also export  BATCH=
[08:45] <Keos> Xchat in n800
[08:45] <OmegaCenti> insmod: use what? sorry...
[08:45] <jetscreamer> scary: modconf also adds the module name to /etc/modules so they get autoloaded on_boot
 intel grapgics chip on the laptop
[08:46] <imbecile> Rob125,  i dont have an apps menu
[08:46] <ryantucc> jetscreamer: not sure what you're referring to - typing mount gets a bunch of info on the screen, not sure what I'm looking for
[08:46] <w30> ryantucc: then that is probably your internal hard drive and it is mounted. see if you can find /mnt/sda1/home/yourusername
[08:46] <mrnutz> anyone ? :)
 awsome almost as good as nvidia
[08:46] <ryantucc> w30: k, hang on
[08:46] <jetscreamer> mount | grep mnt
 with some hacking i did
[08:46] <OmegaCenti> insmod: same here. only way I know how to help people is I spent 2 weeks learning enough and troubleshooting it enough to get lowere resolutions and higher resolutions even though xorg didn't recongnize the resolutions...
[08:46] <OmegaCenti> insmod: same here.
[08:47] <ryantucc> w30/jetscreamer: woo hoo! seems to have worked!
[08:47] <imbecile> ive can someone tell me how to add trash to my desktop?
 915 and the export comaned in .bashrc
[08:47] <OmegaCenti> I have some file in my trash that I can't delete because I don't have permissions...
[08:48] <DisabledDuck> does anyone know the IRC command to test out your SSL connection?
 4 worked best in 6 but in 7 i use 8 i think
[08:48] <DerangedDingo> imbecile: Add a custom launcher with the command "nautilus /home/~/.Trash"
[08:48] <Rob125> imbecile: alright, press alt+f2 and type 'gconf-editor'
[08:48] <OmegaCenti> insmod: no idea what you are talking about...
 sudo rm
[08:48] <Rob125> that'll bring you to the configuration editor.
[08:49] <jetscreamer> ryantucc: when i do what you're doing, cp -a /what/to/copy/* /where/to/copy/  works for me
[08:49] <ryantucc> w30/jetscreamer: I'm copying to the external, it says it can't read a few files (all of them pdf), but all of the important ones seem to be working, so I won't complain too much
[08:49] <jussi01> scary: you get sorted?
[08:49] <ryantucc> jetscreamer: thanks, I'll try hat
[08:49] <imbecile> Rob125,   K, IM THERE
[08:49] <DerangedDingo> Rob125: I haven't heard of this method, please do explain
[08:49] <imbecile> srry capslock
[08:50] <PIPBoy> Flannel, ok so its the firefox plugin for sure, i just need to remove that and update it with the newer plugin i suppose
[08:50] <jetscreamer> ryantucc: if you're trying to clone your install that is what i do
[08:50] <jetscreamer> from a livecd
 to boost acceleration there is a commamd line you can add to .bashrc that makes the kernel access diff so it is faster
[08:50] <Rob125> Dingo: displaying the trash can, along with the devices listed in /mount is an option offered by nautilus
[08:50] <Flannel> !java | PIPBoy
[08:50] <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
[08:50] <Flannel> PIPBoy: that page has instructions on isntalling the new java, as well as the FF plugin
[08:50] <Rob125> Dingo: you can enable it via the configuration editor under nautilus/desktop.
[08:51] <OmegaCenti> insmod: oh neat, didnt even know about that. however, it works fine right now with the weird voodoo magic finger typing I applied to it, so I am going to leave it as is.
 my fps doubled
[08:51] <PIPBoy> Flannel, do i have to remove the old one? or does the new one update it if i install it?
[08:51] <w30> ryantucc: maybe sudo in front of cp *.pdf would pull those across also
[08:51] <DerangedDingo> Rob125: How in the configuration editor?
[08:51] <Flannel> PIPBoy: Remove the old one, yes.
[08:51] <DerangedDingo> Rob125: Under what arrow/etc
[08:51] <PIPBoy> Flannel, Awesome thanks for putting up with me :)
[08:51] <PirateHead> PIPBoy: you might need to remove sun-java5-jre
[08:51] <w30> ryantucc: if permissions on the .pdf files are different
[08:51] <CaptainMorgan> anyone install wxWidgets for c++, for the X11 or GTK+ packages? pretty simply install instructions but if I attempt either package when the ./configure looks for X11 or GTK+ they're not found thus the install fails... any ideas? I thought x11 and gtk+ were pretty standard software on ubuntu
[08:51] <Rob125> Dingo: under 'apps->nautilus->desktop->trash_icon_visible', I think
[08:51] <tarzeau> is there a player for *.D00 files in ubuntu asides opencubicplayer? how do you like http://gnu.ethz.ch/64-STYLE.D00 ?
[08:52] <DisabledDuck> /echo
[08:52] <PIPBoy> PirateHead, I did and i installed the new jre 6
[08:52] <tarzeau> CaptainMorgan: which software you try to build?
[08:52] <Rob125> Lots of cool options in there.
[08:52] <Flannel> CaptainMorgan: do you have the -dev packages?
[08:52] <ryantucc> w30: it does appear to be a permissions thing, will try that
[08:52] <CaptainMorgan> Flannel, -dev? in the repos? last time I checked yes
[08:52] <NaNO2x> insmod: ok so it seems to be hanging on "configuring network interface"
[08:52] <CaptainMorgan> tarzeau, wxWdigets
[08:52] <DerangedDingo> Rob125: Yeah, that did it. Thanks!
[08:52] <tarzeau> CaptainMorgan: but that's packaged?
[08:53] <PirateHead> PIPBoy: good. I personally don't think it's a good idea to even have Java on your computer, but I understand that some people need it. (Like I do, since I am being required to learn how to program in the language.)
[08:53] <CaptainMorgan> no
[08:53] <tarzeau> CaptainMorgan: no?
[08:53] <DerangedDingo> imbecile: Did you get how to?
[08:53] <imbecile> Rob125,  woot! you are the man
there you go
[08:53] <PIPBoy> PirateHead, Why is your opinion that?
[08:53] <DerangedDingo> imbecile: ok. good. thanks!
[08:53] <imbecile> DerangedDingo,  yeah i just got it
[08:53] <CaptainMorgan> it's open source from sourceforge...... lemme check
[08:53] <NaNO2x> insmod: all right well whats that telling me :P
[08:53] <tarzeau> CaptainMorgan: debian has it
[08:53] <PIPBoy> PirateHead, just curious, i like to know everyones side on the matters
[08:53] <Rob125> imbecile: glad to help
[08:53] <nikusan> Hi all. I've got a generic mp4 player here with a fat16 volume. I reformatted it with a mkdosfs -F16 -v /dev/sdb1 and now the device can't see it's own drive. Please help :(
 well does the network u want to work work?
[08:53] <harisamin> Flannel: are u there...i just had an idea
[08:54] <Rob125> Dingo: glad it met your expectations!
[08:54] <CaptainMorgan> tarzeau, ye.. dang, ok, thanks!@
[08:54] <CaptainMorgan> just checke
[08:54] <CaptainMorgan> d
[08:54] <NaNO2x> insmod: yes i'm connected fine its just during boot i see any errors
[08:54] <imbecile> yayyy!!!
[08:54] <PirateHead> PIPBoy: you introduce yourself to security problems from time to time that stem from the availablity of the Java runtimes. Until Sun figures stuff out and until you get patched, just running Java in your browser could compromise your security.
[08:54] <harisamin> Flannel: i have a G3 powerbook that has xubuntu dapper on it right now....is there anyway i can install xubuntu on the G4 powermac of mine by conencting it with the powerbook....?
[08:55] <PIPBoy> PirateHead: wow
[08:55] <tarzeau> harisamin: dd over the network maybe?
[08:55] <tarzeau> harisamin: but why not just install from cd again?
[08:55] <PirateHead> PIPBoy: Just having the compiler and runtime doesn't really hurt, but I suggest enabling Java very sparingly on your web browser and using similar discrimination with regard to java executables that you download.
[08:55] <OmegaCenti> I can't get kalarm to play a sound when an alarm comes up. Any ideas why?
[08:55] <AzMoo> Hey, I'm looking at new motherboards. Can anybody recommend a site with reviews of how they run in Ubuntu?
 ubuntu loads all devices at boot it is probably trying to resolve them -- edit /etc/network/interfaces and hash out all other entries hash=#
[08:56] <harisamin> tarzeau: trust me i've tried just about everything for some reason there is something about the paritionoer its not partitioning right....i;ve tried several GOOD cds with from breezy to edgy
 boot should fly
[08:56] <NaNO2x> insmod all other entries cept which? my wifi and lan?
[08:56] <harisamin> Flannel: are u there?
[08:56] <tarzeau> harisamin: oh you want to resize mac os x partitions?
[08:56] <DerangedDingo> AzMoo: I don't know a whole lot, but most intel chipsets are autodetected and work pretty easily without drivers and everything
[08:57] <w30> nikusan: rule of thumb: always format with the device that uses the drive
[08:57] <AzMoo> DerangedDingo, I was actually more looking towards AMD :p
[08:57] <harisamin> tarzeau: i have two hard drives...one has os x on it...and the other one used to have ubuntu on it and now i cant get ubuntu installed on it again...keep getting that debootstrap error
[08:57] <nikusan> w30, it's just an mp4 player, cant reformat its own drive or anything like that
 that which you don't need searched -- if you have wifi and lan it may be searching la -- hash it out until you use it
[08:57] <harisamin> Flannel: are u there?
[08:57] <DerangedDingo> AzMoo: Yeah. I figured... Asus boards work quite well
[08:58] <insmod> searching lan
[08:58] <scary> how do I stop drivers from loading?
[08:58] <tarzeau> harisamin: what says the error exactly?
[08:58] <AzMoo> DerangedDingo, that's good. The store I want to hit up has lots of asus boards.
[08:59] <AzMoo> DerangedDingo, ta.
[08:59] <harisamin> tarzeau: when it starts installing the base system it littrally says debootstrap error and check virtual machine 4 or osmething....i chekc it and it says segmentation fault
[08:59] <NaNO2x> insmod: all right, brb trying
edit modules.conf or modutils
[08:59] <PIPBoy> PirateHead: hey, if i just uninstall the gjj 4.1 and all the other 4.1 packages would it remove the 1.4 java plugins? im just trying to see if their related to the plugin
[08:59] <w30> nikusan: it probably drank the Microsoft cool aid and uses a broken fat 16 that only works with Windows format.
[08:59] <johntkucz> i just tried to install octave -- graphing program -- and see where it's installed in /bin, but can't open the program.  anyone know how to do that?
[09:00] <nikusan> w30, that's the same thought I just had. I tried reformatting on a windows xp machine and it still can't see the disk. Any other ideas?
[09:00] <PirateHead> PIPBoy: I don't know whether it would uninstall the related plugins.
[09:00] <Aviel> hey
[09:00] <w30> nikusan: call Bill out there in Washington State
[09:00] <Aviel> some 1 here?
[09:00] <OmegaCenti> I was wondering, how are tty fonts chosen, where are they stored, how do you change them on the fly, and how do you set a default?
[09:00] <Aviel> some 1 can help me??/
[09:00] <scary> where is modules.conf?  when I do a locate I do not find it
[09:00] <Aviel> i cant install CentOS 4,4
[09:00] <tarzeau> harisamin: which version of debootstrap do you use?
[09:00] <Aviel> ??
[09:00] <Aviel> can some 1 help?
[09:00] <enrique> hi, got problems with glx
[09:00] <tarzeau> harisamin: this looks not like a partition/filestystem/bootloader problem but just a debootstrap one
[09:00] <DerangedDingo> OmegaCenti: System > Preferences > Font, and you can install them by dragging them into ~/.fonts
[09:00] <tarzeau> harisamin: what version of ubuntu are you trying to debootstrap?
[09:00] <enrique>  i got a geforce 8600 gt, i did install glx and when i restart X , it gives me the classic "couldnt start X" screen
[09:01] <enrique> then i have to reconfigure X and select the nv module
[09:01] <tarzeau> harisamin: i've done many debootstrap installs of debian. worked like a champion
[09:01] <harisamin> i dunno ....
[09:01] <enrique>  any ideas???
[09:01] <DerangedDingo> OmegaCenti: And if there's no folder called that, then you can make one and put em in
[09:01] <Aviel> ?!!?!
[09:01] <tarzeau> harisamin: dpkg -l cdebootstrap debootstrap says what?
[09:01] <OmegaCenti> DerangedDingo: Is that for the text consoles on ctl alt fx ?
[09:01] <harisamin> tarzeau: i just am using whatever is on the installation disks
[09:01] <tarzeau> harisamin: try to use cdebootstrap if ubuntu has it?
[09:01] <Aviel> is ubuntu good for servers??
[09:01] <Rob125> Aviel: probably wrong channel for that.
[09:01] <tarzeau> harisamin: which install disk? feisty?
[09:01] <ryantucc> jscreamer/w30: sudo cp -a appears to be working, I'm going to bed as I'm trying to rescue my music, which will take awhile. But thanks for both of your help! I'll do a fresh install when I get up
[09:01] <tarzeau> Aviel: not espeicially, but it can be used yes
[09:01] <harisamin> tarzeau: i dont have ubuntu installed right now....i've tried badger dapper and edgy
[09:02] <Rob125> Aviel: #CentOS
[09:02] <tarzeau> Aviel: it's missing some essential stuff that is only in universal (no security updates?)
[09:02] <Aviel> no 1 there
[09:02] <tarzeau> Rob125: or #Debian
[09:02] <w30> ryantucc: wonderful
[09:02] <Rob125> tarzeau: why #debian?
[09:02] <pyrak> can someone recommend a bittorent client that allows more than one dl at a time (the stock one does not)?
[09:02] <Rob125> (Genuine curiousity)
[09:02] <Takesinn> Ubuntu "Linux has never acted this way before, we swear!" :P
[09:02] <Aviel> some 1 can send me mirror site?
[09:02] <ircblood> how do i use the g++ compiler?
sure you can i put linux on my players -- i wrote the nano linuxipod config for movies -- sure you can
[09:02] <tarzeau> Rob125: it's great for servers?
[09:02] <Aviel> to download it
[09:02] <tarzeau> Rob125: i mean, why centos?
[09:03] <Aviel> CentOS 4.4 the best
[09:03] <Aviel> i wanna to run cs servers
[09:03] <tarzeau> Rob125: ubuntu has a great relation to debian. how's centos similar to ubuntu?
[09:03] <Rob125> tarzeau: Oh. I said CentOS because he asked about CentOS.
[09:03] <tarzeau> Aviel: ah cool, i run css servers on debian
[09:03] <Aviel> lol
[09:03] <Aviel> how its work/>
[09:03] <Aviel> ?
[09:03] <kao> Hi - I have just installed ubuntu and would appreciate advice as to which applications to install as bthose regarded as most essential :-)
[09:03] <Rob125> tarzeau: lol, yeah. I <3 debian -- never touched CentOS, tbh.
[09:03] <tarzeau> Rob125: aviel? i only seen the question about if ubuntu is good for servers
[09:03] <DerangedDingo> OmegaCenti: OHHH. you mean fonts for the TTYs... gahh... my bad... i misread it as ttf.. truetypefonts
[09:03] <tarzeau> Rob125: heh :)
[09:03] <pyrak> i need a bittorent client that allows more than one dl at a time
[09:03] <pyrak> any recommendations?
[09:03] <gursikh> Hey folks, I have this sprint phone Sanyo Pm 8200. I've connected it via cable to my Ubuntu 7.04 laptop no problems. It's recognized as an ACM modem (on /dev/ttyACM0). I've gone into "network" and configured it under the modm (manually putting in /dev/ttyACM0) and hit connect. It connects fine.  However when I try to do anything on the internet, nothing is routed through that connection at all. It's connected,activce, and working. I
[09:03] <gursikh> 've disabled wireless and everything else. Any Ideas?
[09:03] <tarzeau> Aviel: install it, then get the css/cs stuff install it. done. works. (well configure the stuff)
[09:04] <OmegaCenti> DerangedDingo: sok... honest mistake.. going to post again.
[09:04] <OmegaCenti> I was wondering, how are tty fonts chosen, where are they stored, how do you change them on the fly, and how do you set a default?
[09:04] <Aviel> is have secuority to the server?
[09:04] <Aviel> like update?
[09:04] <randoman> so if I add a script to /etc/init.d in ubuntu it will load when it boots up
[09:04] <randoman> ?
[09:04] <tarzeau> Aviel: yes debian has very good stable security updates
[09:04] <Rob125> kao: amarok is essential, along with wine
[09:04] <tarzeau> Aviel: do you know www.sauerbraten.org also funny game
[09:04] <randoman> whats the best way to add a command to bootup in kde
[09:04] <randoman> ?
[09:04] <nikusan> insmod, sorry I don't know what you mean
[09:04] <Jordan_U> randoman, #kubuntu
 of course you can format it
[09:05] <kao> I have my lap top with it now on and running. thanks for advise re amarok - any sites I should now visit?>
[09:05] <harisamin> tarzeau: any idea how i can fix this....i had ubuntu badger installed before...i then upgraded all the way to edgy...then i tried to upgrade to feisty and i think feisty wasnt supported anymore but thats when i remmeber the ubuntu ssytem wouldnt start so i had to install it again...and thats when i could never install it again and i get this debootstrap error
[09:05] <harisamin> Flannel: are u there?
 and of course you can access  it
[09:05] <h4ngedm4n> hey for apache2, is the default host supposed to be set up as a virtual host, even if you only host 1 site?
[09:05] <nikusan> insmod, I formatted it but now the device itself can't see its own disk
[09:06] <nikusan> insmod, I can read and write to the disk with the computer, just not the mp3 player... which makes it useless :(
[09:06] <tarzeau> harisamin: no, i just run a gutsy box on sparc, converted from debian using www.linuks.mine.nu/ubuntu/ script
[09:06] <tarzeau> harisamin: i usually convert ubuntu machines into debian :)
[09:06] <kao> what does amarok provide?
 lol because you used a fs that the software doesn't know
[09:06] <randoman> but guys , is adding a script to /etc/init.d an option?
[09:06] <Rob125> kao: advanced music player functionality
[09:06] <randoman> to load it before kde loads?
[09:06] <h4ngedm4n> kao: amarok is a great music libray/organizer
[09:07] <nikusan> insmod, that's probably right. The problem is it was fat16 originally and that's what I've now formatted it with
[09:07] <syed1994> can anyone help me with my internet connection on ubuntu?
[09:07] <kao> 10nx Rob
[09:07] <Rob125> kao, along with the best ipod tool available for linux.
 thereyou go
[09:07] <clay_the_arc> why is my ubuntu stuck in command line interface and not guided user?
[09:07] <harisamin> tarzeau: i tried installing debian 4.0 Etch tooo but i get the same deboostrap error...i think ubuntu uses debians installer....anyways so you have no idea what i can do?
[09:07] <ytoox> I need help
[09:07] <ytoox> what is the problem with python in http://pastebin.ca/587043?
[09:07] <nikusan> insmod, there I go?
[09:07] <Rob125> clay_the_arc: try pressing ctrl+alt+F7 ?
[09:07] <clay_the_arc> why is my ubuntu stuck in command line interface and not guided user?
[09:07] <tarzeau> harisamin: strange. onto the g4 powerpc ?
[09:07] <clay_the_arc> i did
[09:07] <clay_the_arc> nothing happened
[09:08] <Rob125> clay_the_arc, tried restarting yet?
[09:08] <harisamin> tarzeau: yeah
[09:08] <clay_the_arc> 20+ times
[09:08] <tarzeau> harisamin: you could try asking in #debianppc, posting authentic error msgs  is useful
  did you dd the old drive just dd it back
[09:08] <tarzeau> harisamin: i also got debian on a g3 (dual boot)
[09:08] <clay_the_arc> i've tried GDM in CLI as well
[09:08] <syed1994> why can't I use my ethernet on ubuntu?
[09:08] <tarzeau> syed1994: got cable and wireless?
[09:08] <syed1994> cable
[09:08] <OmegaCenti> I was wondering, how are tty fonts chosen, where are they stored, how do you change them on the fly, and how do you set a default?
[09:09] <tarzeau> syed1994: i've seen both up on user machines, and the default gw on the wrong interface (no such network, wireless)
  why did you wan't to change it
[09:09] <tarzeau> OmegaCenti: /usr/share/fonts/ ?
[09:09] <clay_the_arc> any idea Rob125?
[09:09] <Jordan_U> syed1994, What happens when you run: sudo ifconfig eth0 && sudo dhclient eth0
[09:09] <Rob125> clay_the_arc, any thing that you can think of that might have caused a blow-up? (like editing your gnome conf files improperly?)
[09:09] <clay_the_arc> i haven
[09:09] <nikusan> insmod, no I didn't dd it. I reformatted because after an unsafe removal the volume wouldn't work. couldn't read/write/delete/etc
[09:10] <tarzeau> Jordan_U: the first command can be run without root permissions, just give the ifconfig path if it's not in $PATH
[09:10] <clay_the_arc> i haven't edited any files on it
[09:10] <Rob125> clay: so it's a fresh install?
[09:10] <harisamin> Flannel: are u there?
[09:10] <clay_the_arc> it stopped working after i updated steam and foxy tunes on my XP Boot
 ?
[09:10] <nikusan> insmod, the general impression a google gave me was to reformat, so I stuck with fat16 and now I'm SOL...
[09:10] <ytoox> can you tell me what is the problem with python? I get this error http://pastebin.ca/587043?
[09:10] <Rob125> ahh.
[09:10] <Rob125> clay_the_arc, let me google for a couple secs.
[09:10] <clay_the_arc> kk
[09:10] <harisamin> tarzeau: do u know if i can try to install ubuntu on the G4 remotely with my G3 powerbook...?
[09:10] <OmegaCenti> tarzeau: thats one question down :)
  ya but always back up man :)
[09:11] <nikusan> insmod, telling me that doesn't help after the fact :(
[09:11] <tarzeau> harisamin: uh, i don't think that's easier in any way
  what player
[09:11] <enviouz> ive noticed no ports are blocked by default. why is this? isnt it dangerous?
[09:11] <syed1994> Jordan_U, no working leases
[09:11] <OmegaCenti> I am trying to change the current font/color on tty1 and I am later wanting to change the default font/color on all ttys.
[09:11] <tarzeau> harisamin: there's an order to install dual+ boot onto ppc machines
[09:11] <Rob125> clay_the_arc, what's the error you get when you try to start gdm from the cli?
[09:11] <nikusan> insmod, inki1 mp4, 2gb, generic chinese job
[09:11] <harisamin> tarzeau: but it migth be my only way to get uibunut back on this machine
[09:12] <clay_the_arc> Rob125, it says something like cannot open shared something
[09:12] <tarzeau> harisamin: why do you badly want ubuntu on that laptop? on ppc?
[09:12] <tarzeau> harisamin: what country you in?
[09:12] <harisamin> tarzeau: i already have os x on this machine?
[09:12] <Jordan_U> harisamin, It should be possible but you will have to change a few things afterward like GRUB, /etc/fstab and your xorg.conf
[09:12] <tarzeau> harisamin: yes?
[09:12] <Rob125> clay_the_arc, I know it sucks to have to reboot, but can you give me the exact error message?
[09:12] <clay_the_arc> kk
[09:12] <clay_the_arc> 1sec
 there must be a reset tool like all other player -- check the site and your disk then just use wine to get it back
[09:12] <Jordan_U> harisamin, s/grub/yaboot
[09:13] <harisamin> tarzeau: i want it on the G4 powermac ppc...because i've beeing using ubuntu for a eyar ...love it...and i need to install some software that i cant install using os x....linux is the option...and ubunut is the easiest distro...i've tried looking at otehr powerpc distros but i dont think it will work or i dont like how they work
[09:13] <nikusan> insmod, good advice, I'll have a look around thanks
[09:13] <harisamin> Jordan_U: what?
[09:13] <syed1994> Jordan_U: no working leases in presistent database
[09:13] <tarzeau> harisamin: heh, sorry can't help :(
 or do what i do buy a new one and bring the old back and say it dosn't work !
[09:14] <Jordan_U> harisamin, I meant to say yaboot in my earlier comment, not grub
[09:14] <harisamin> Jordan_U: what about yaboot?
[09:14] <w30> OmegaCenti: /usr/lib/kbd/consolefonts; setfont command works for a session to set system you got to edit /etc/rc/rcsysinit or something
[09:14] <nikusan> insmod, I'll try that too. this came from a slightly dodgy computer market though so I'm now sure about my chances
[09:14] <NaNO2x> insmod: yeah that really fsked it up
[09:14] <OmegaCenti> w30: Thanks!!
[09:14] <syed1994> Anyone can help me with my internet connection?
[09:14] <Jordan_U> harisamin, If you install from another computer using target disk mode you will need to reconfigure it
 any place that sells it will do
 what
[09:15] <harisamin> Jordan_U: reconfigure what ...and do u know how?
[09:15] <Jordan_U> harisamin, yaboot is basically grub for PPC
  works with everything but the wife
[09:16] <syed1994> Anyone can help me with my internet connection?
[09:16] <tarzeau> Jordan_U: oh it's far not as good as grub
[09:16] <tarzeau> Jordan_U: but there's porting efforts of grub to ppc
[09:16] <NaNO2x> insmod: well it still hung there, however when i tried to actually get in it crashed up and wouldn't load anything but the background
[09:16] <nikusan> insmod, heh that's unfortunate :P
[09:16] <w30> OmegaCenti: watch out though some fonts will mess up your screen so be prepared to hit the up arrow a couple of times to go back to a working font, ha
[09:16] <Takesinn> Hey, you guys mind answering a question about Cedega?
[09:16] <Jordan_U> tarzeau, I know, and I can't wait for it :)
[09:17] <OmegaCenti> w30: Ill check it out.
[09:17] <tarzeau> Jordan_U: can you give a developer a root shell to test it ?
  :)
[09:17] <Takesinn> I just got the game installed and I tested it and it seems to work
[09:17] <tarzeau> Jordan_U: the thing is the developers don't have that sort of computer :)
[09:17] <Takesinn> I shut it off and install some extra addon packages, suddenly it doesn't work
[09:17] <null___> What do I apt-get to switch from Gnome to Xfce on a Ubuntu install?  Was it xfce-desktop-environment?
[09:17] <tarzeau> Jordan_U: i got asked once, but it's my only ppc machine that must be working-so no tests on that
 then you still have a module loading lsmod and look for it then rmmod it
[09:18] <NaNO2x> hmm
[09:18] <NaNO2x> how would i find it?
[09:18] <OmegaCenti> w30: It looked like I don't have set conf
[09:18] <OmegaCenti> w30: errr setfont
[09:18] <Jordan_U> tarzeau, Yes, is there a place I can "advertise" that I am willing to test?
[09:18] <tarzeau> Jordan_U: yes, ask nyu in #gnu-kbsd
[09:18] <scary> how do I stop a device from loading at startup?
[09:19] <scary> a driver I mean
[09:19] <w30> OmegaCenti: some systems use consolechars, man consolechars
[09:19] <OmegaCenti> w30: thanks :)
[09:19] <insmod> NaNO2x>well you need to know what does what -- just google the modules
[09:19] <syed1994> I cannot connect to the internet, can anyone help me?
[09:19] <tarzeau> scary: in some blacklist file in /etc somewhere
[09:19] <Jordan_U> tarzeau, Just ask if he needs a PPC machine for testing?
[09:20] <harisamin> Jordan_U: i know what yaboot is but how would iconfigure it to do a remote installation
[09:20] <OmegaCenti> do ttys have a resolution? I mean, how does it work...?
[09:20] <Jordan_U> !yaboot | harisamin
[09:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about yaboot - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:20] <insmod> NaNO2x> dmesg and cat /var/log/messages |less should say
[09:20] <textobox> hello room, I just changed from suse to ubuntu and my problem is with flash on AMD64 any help?
[09:21] <w30> OmegaCenti: your font has a size 16x16 9x9 etc
[09:21] <Rob125> nn, lads and lasses
[09:21] <syed1994>  I cannot connect to the internet, can anyone help me?
[09:21] <Jordan_U> harisamin, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot
[09:21] <w30> OmegaCenti: it's usually part of the font filename, not always
[09:22] <Jordan_U> textobox, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[09:22] <OmegaCenti> w30: would consolechars also point to /usr/lib/kbd/consolefonts?
[09:22] <textobox> thanks !!!
[09:23] <syed1994> Can anyone help me?

[09:26] <paganjew> toddy, why do you have to throw in the chinese
[09:26] <toddy> i cant make this file sysdeputil.c
[09:27] <w30> OmegaCenti: if you are just playing around cd to that directory and you won't have to type so much :=)

[09:28] <moDumass> any ideas?

[09:37] <rage_ext> hello, I'm looking for a solution for Huawei E220 USB HSDPA modem, for my laptop... I've done all the searching for the device and the modprobe stuff, I just don't know how to continue with the installation. Pleas help me?
[09:37] <paganjew> man {i{i,f}config,{ls,rm}mod} so nice
[09:38] <moDumass> im about to give mplayer a try, no subs in kaffiene though
[09:38] <paganjew> moDumass, sounds like something is wrong with some library
[09:39] <NeoGeo64> is 64 bit ubuntu faster than 32 bit ubuntu
[09:39] <Jordan_U> NeoGeo64, Not for most desktop uses
[09:39] <moDumass> paganjew "error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device." so thats a no go
[09:39] <Jordan_U> moDumass, try xv
[09:39] <Pirate_Hunter> hello people, just a quick question my comp originally has 64 base hardware & processor but I dont use 64 base operating systems i.e. my ubuntu isn't 64 base neither is my XP (I dont feel like paying for 64x XP). Now am I losing out on not using 64 base operating systems?
[09:39] <krips> hey jordan
[09:39] <krips> u use gnome ?
[09:39] <paganjew> moDumass, try in a terminal for me, "aptitude search ~dsubtitles" and see what kind of stuff is installed
[09:40] <moDumass> Jordan_U whats xv?
[09:40] <NeoGeo64> can i find 16 bit ubuntu
[09:40] <moDumass> paganjew, will do that now
[09:40] <NeoGeo64> for my old 386
[09:40] <NeoGeo64> it has a 2500rpm hdd which has had the same copy of win 3.1 on it since 1994
[09:41] <NeoGeo64> its 300mb
[09:41] <Jordan_U> NeoGeo64, I doubt Ubuntu would run on a 386
[09:41] <jussi01> NeoGeo64: ubuntu wont run on it
[09:41] <moDumass> paganjew, what am i looking fior?
[09:41] <jussi01> DSL is the way for that machine
[09:41] <melchior7> NeoGeo64, and 386 isn't 16 bit
[09:41] <syed1994> can anyone help me with my internet connection
[09:41] <melchior7> debian will certainly run on a 386
[09:41] <paganjew> moDumass, anything that may be broken for starters "aptitude search ~dsubtitles | grep ^b"
[09:42] <Pirate_Hunter> hello people, just a quick question my comp originally has 64 base hardware & processor but I dont use 64 base operating systems i.e. my ubuntu isn't 64 base neither is my XP (I dont feel like paying for 64x XP). Now am I losing out on not using 64 base operating systems?
[09:42] <krips> hey Jordan_U
[09:42] <krips> u use gnome
[09:42] <krips> ?
[09:42] <Jordan_U> krips, Yes
[09:42] <melchior7> Pirate_Hunter, in terms of speed?
[09:42] <krips> Jordan_U i fuck my bot panel and i dont now how to get again
[09:42] <paganjew> moDumass, but "grep ^b" may not find what you are looking for, if you can see some package that has a b, or c in the 1st second column
[09:42] <krips> i get other pannel
[09:42] <moDumass> paganjew, im pastebinning the return now
[09:42] <Jordan_U> !ohmy | krips
[09:42] <ubotu> krips: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:43] <syed1994> anyone can help me with my internet connection
[09:43] <krips> yep
[09:43] <moDumass> paganjew, http://pastebin.com/935070
[09:43] <Pirate_Hunter> melchior7: could you expand on that, plz... do you mean i would notice more speed in using 64 base ubuntu?
[09:43] <krips> sorry for my english
[09:43] <paganjew> moDumass, just an initial try, we will probably find very little by this but it rules out silly problems
[09:43] <krips> but the channel in spanish sux
[09:43] <Jordan_U> krips, Just right click on your top panel and "create new pannel"
[09:43] <krips> ok
[09:44] <krips> i know
[09:44] <krips> Jordan_U
[09:44] <melchior7> Pirate_Hunter, 64 bit ubuntu may be marginally faster on your system, but imho the troubles that come with it aren't worth it
[09:44] <krips> but
[09:44] <paganjew> moDumass, it appears as though your computer has deleted kaffeine
[09:44] <Takesinn> Ey
[09:44] <krips> the new pannel dont show me the aplication when i opened
[09:44] <Takesinn> Which package contains fsck.ntfs?
[09:44] <krips> u know me Jordan_U
[09:44] <krips> the new pannel its blank
[09:44] <paganjew> moDumass, so you will want to install it :), "aptitude install kaffeine"
[09:44] <moDumass> paganjew, no return to "aptitude search ~dsubtitles | grep ^b"
[09:45] <syed1994> can anyone help
[09:45] <Pirate_Hunter> melchior7: I see so im better off with the version I have at leats until I learn to use ubuntu properly "lol by that I mena using the terminal". kk wont go for the hassle of installing than
[09:45] <Jordan_U> krips, I know, now to get a default bottom pannel right click and add a workspace switcher to the bottom right...
[09:45] <[ThC] Primski> hey, whats the wine channel again ?

[09:45] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[09:45] <paganjew> moDumass, did you upgrade recently ?
i did ----   man ifconfig man iwconfig man lsmod man rmmod --- if you can't do that then you need more help than i will give ---- first help yourself
[09:45] <melchior7> Pirate_Hunter, yea, especially if you're a novice I'd stick with the 32 bit version.
[09:45] <moDumass> paganjew, yeh about 4 days a go

[09:46] <Jordan_U> krips, show desktop to the far left...

[09:46] <krips> ya
[09:46] <krips> wait a sec Jordan_U
[09:46] <moDumass> so you recon remove and reinstall most media players?
[09:46] <Pirate_Hunter> melchior7: no problem will take your advice now just need to read this ubuntu bible and hopefully I'll be able to contribute something to the community
[09:46] <paganjew> moDumass, no just the important ones need installing at this time
[09:47] <Takesinn> Anyone know where I can get fsck.ntfs?
[09:47] <Rayz> hello, I'm trying to install the ubuntu on my HDD, but it says no partitions found even I got XP (primary) on this system and I got 2 other partitions
[09:47] <paganjew> moDumass, install one to see if it gives you errors of some sort
[09:47] <Takesinn> Jordan_U: You got any ideas?
[09:47] <Rayz> but the ubuntu cann't see any it says make sure your HDD is attached...
[09:47] <Jordan_U> Takesinn, ntfs-progs
[09:47] <paganjew> moDumass, aptitude reinstall kaffeine
[09:47] <syed1994> man ifconfig man iwconfig man lsmod man rmmod who thinks this is the manual
[09:47] <krips> ok dude done Jordan_U
[09:47] <krips> Jordan_U ty for ur help
[09:47] <moDumass> paganjew, is it ok to use synaptic?
[09:48] <Takesinn> Jordan_U: I got that installed, but it's not in there
[09:48] <Jordan_U> Takesinn, Actually, the package is called ntfsprogs ( no - )
[09:48] <krips> Jordan_U i looking for a nice dock bar u can reccomend me some one ?
[09:48] <Jordan_U> krips, Then the trash to the far right and window list in the middle
[09:48] <paganjew> moDumass, I wouldn't suggest it because the errors you get will be available to you in what ever terminal you use if you use apt-get or aptitude
[09:48] <Takesinn> Jordan_U: and fsck.ntfs is ntfsfix?
[09:49] <moDumass> ok, gimme a sec
[09:49] <paganjew> moDumass, if you are using synaptic alot then use apt-get to install
[09:49] <Jordan_U> Takesinn, I don't think there is an fsck.ntfs ( so yes )
[09:49] <krips> Jordan_U ok i done dont worry tay
[09:49] <paganjew> moDumass, sudo apt-get reinstall kaffeine
[09:49] <krips> Jordan_U and i have other question for u
[09:49] <Takesinn> Jordan_U: Then why does fsck search for it? :P
i can't help you if u know nothing so first read and learn  or it is a waist of all time -- i can't do your homework
[09:49] <Rayz> any got an idea why the ubuntu cann't see the HDD ?
[09:50] <Takesinn> Jordan_U: I ran fsck on the /dev file and got the "fsck.ntfs is missing" error smack dab in the face
[09:50] <krips> Jordan_U i want to install a dock bar like with the mac bar
[09:50] <krips> Jordan_U u can recommend me some one ?
[09:50] <moDumass> invalid operation reinstall
[09:50] <Jordan_U> krips, http://www.taimila.com/osx-guide-2.php
[09:50] <paganjew> moDumass, sudo apt-get --reinstall kaffeine
[09:51] <paganjew> moDumass, sorry I don't use apt-get I use aptitude
[09:51] <Jordan_U> Takesinn, That may just be because it looks for $fstype.fsck or something
[09:51] <paganjew> moDumass this is right --> "sudo apt-get --reinstall install kaffeine"
[09:51] <krips> Jordan_U ok lets me se
[09:51] <krips> see ok
[09:52] <joncsn> how do i use gconf to adjust my sound settings?
[09:52] <joncsn> where do i find gconf?
[09:52] <paganjew> joncsn, you don't
[09:52] <Tehk> Anyone know why all my terminals start off in some random location rather then home/username
[09:52] <moDumass> thanks, yeh i cant complain, your helping me
[09:52] <Jordan_U> joncsn, What sound settings are you trying to change?
[09:52] <paganjew> joncsn, gconf-editor
[09:52] <jussi01> joncsn: gconf is gnome
[09:52] <joncsn> realplayer wont play audio
[09:52] <moDumass> paganjew, yeh thats done
[09:52] <paganjew> moDumass, any errors?
[09:53] <moDumass> paganjew, no not during the install
[09:53] <moDumass> should i reinstall mplayer also?
[09:53] <joncsn> "youll need to use gconf and set /desktop/gnome/sound/enable_esd to false (uncheck its box) to disable it."
[09:53] <paganjew> moDumass, also if you now run "aptitude search kaffeine" is it installed?
[09:53] <Rayz> guys, I'm trying to install ubuntu on the same system that I got XP on, but the ubuntu saus no partitions found, whats the problem?
[09:53] <paganjew> moDumass, that is does it have an "i" in the output for installed or a "p" for not?

[09:54] <joncsn> well, how do i disable ESD
[09:54] <paganjew> moDumass, so there are still problems
[09:54] <Jordan_U> stewraz, Here :)
[09:54] <Pirate_Hunter> stewraz thats a joke yeah??
[09:55] <stewraz> ahhh nice work
[09:55] <stewraz> nahh not a joke, not really with it atm
[09:55] <paganjew> moDumass, try "sudo aptitude reinstall kaffeine" as I am very familiar with aptitude
[09:55] <CNTRLX> how do i get vnc viewer in listen mode?
[09:55] <tarzeau> CNTRLX: that'd be vnc server
[09:55] <paganjew> moDumass, you should be seeing errors upon install with "id"
[09:55] <moDumass> paganjew, i dont think there are, gimme a sec
[09:55] <Pirate_Hunter> stewraz lol like jordan said here
[09:55] <CNTRLX> ok
[09:55] <CNTRLX> how may i do this?
[09:56] <Rayz> Jordan_U: I dont know what is the RAID controller how to check ?
[09:56] <syed1994> insmod, so you ask me what to do now?
[09:56] <Rayz> Pirate_Hunter: where I can get that gparted?
[09:57] <moDumass> paganjew, i can play an avi file in kaffeine, in vlc they take forever to open and in mplayer they arror out.
[09:57] <Rayz> I got important files on the system, I got one for my XP and one for my files, other one I moved all the files from
[09:57] <paganjew> Rayz, aptitude install gparted -- its in synaptic
[09:57] <Zeph_> is there an equilizer puligin for rythmbox payer?
[09:57] <Zeph_> player
[09:57] <Pirate_Hunter> Rayz: internet... you can search online for their website, if you have a problem finding it you can always try here again
[09:57] <Jordan_U> Rayz, If you don't know what one is then you probably don't have one :)
[09:57] <moDumass> paganjew, i only realiswed the prob because im trying to watch something with a subtitles file and none of the players will recognise the subs file
[09:57] <stewraz> i went to install frostwire and it sintalled fine, but i go to launch it and get nothing
[09:57] <stewraz> any ideas
[09:58] <Rayz> I will see
[09:58] <Rayz> brb
[09:58] <Rayz> rebooting ..
[09:58] <SlickMcRunfast> no you dont
[09:58] <SlickMcRunfast> no seeing on internet
[09:58] <Takesinn> Anyone know how to "reboot" a ntfs partition?
[09:58] <Pirate_Hunter> stewraz: what dont u see?
[09:58] <Zeph_> is there a eq for rythmbox music player>
[09:58] <Jordan_U> stewraz, That is a known problem that I am surprised has not been fixed yet ( I had it in Dapper ) I don't remember how to fix it, I just use gtk-gnutella
[09:58] <paganjew> moDumass, yes, I realize but your situation is rather interesting, because you have many files by your pastebin photo that are not installed correctly.  I would say you have a problem there.  You need to reinstall some package that is not letting you view the subtitles
[09:59] <stewraz> nothing at all, it installed under the proper app menu
[09:59] <stewraz> but i click the link for it and nothing
[09:59] <stewraz> ahhh ok then
[09:59] <stewraz> gtx.gnutella
[09:59] <stewraz> ill try that
[10:00] <moDumass> paganjew, thanks, im not the sharpest tool when ic comes to knowing whats meant to be, so kaffeine seems to be installed,
[10:00] <syed1994> can anyone help me with my internet connection??????????
[10:01] <Zeph_> so like why am i getting mouse freezing constantly in ubuntu?
[10:01] <Pirate_Hunter> stewraz: cnat help you never had that problem I guess its a bug, mine was installed with Automatix2 and only bug is that it wont close sometimes/ hangs/ loses focus on search/chat come on when it is set never to show/I keep being hidden as a leaf which is annoying, need to find the stable version, im using dumb beta version
[10:01] <Takesinn> Ah screw NTFS
[10:01] <imbecile_> hey guys, i think i messed something up.. I need to find out how to reenable my internet connection when hardlined in.. i messed it up earlier and i cant remember where it was :/
[10:02] <snaykero> Linux Ubuntu Rullleezz!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
[10:02] <syed1994> can anyone help me? I think IRC is not good
[10:02] <Jordan_U> syed1994, You can try ubuntuforums.org ?
[10:02] <Takesinn> I'm doing some organizing and I'm going to toss an old NTFS partition and transfer all the files over to an ext3 partition
[10:03] <stewraz> jordan- gtk-gnutella, seems to be getting my downloads very slow
[10:03] <stewraz> are there any tricks
[10:03] <Teonnyn> Heya
[10:03] <knightwse> hey everyone
[10:04] <Jordan_U> stewraz, No idea, I only used it once :)
[10:04] <Rayz> I'm back, I guess my ubuntu dont see the sata ?
[10:05] <Rayz> I got version 5.04 does it support SATA ?
[10:05] <knightwse> hey dudes
[10:05] <knightwse> i've got a quick question
[10:05] <Teonnyn> I've been looking for a DVD player that'll read encrpyted DVD's.. intending on using my laptop for background noise and such while working but so far it'll only play a very few in my collection.. I tried getting libdvdcss but it does not appear to be avaliable anymore, can anyone recommend anything?
[10:05] <Jordan_U> Rayz, Why are you using 5.04 ?
[10:05] <Zeph_> hey i cant find my syncropated! that i just installed thru sypnatic. im trying to open it with sync divices when connected to pocket pc
[10:05] <knightwse> if i want to mount an OSX share (samba) which filesystem do i need to define in fstab ?
[10:05] <Jordan_U> Rayz, That is 2 years old
[10:05] <knightwse> when I look at the manual it tells me to use smbfs
[10:06] <Rayz> hmm
[10:06] <Rayz> I'll download the new version
[10:06] <knightwse> but when I do a mount -a it says its an unrecognised filesystem
[10:06] <Jordan_U> knightwse, Does OSx really use samba? I would think it would use nfs by default
[10:06] <aa^way> trying to read .chm but cant, what is program for it?
[10:06] <Zeph_> wow i guess im just a fly on the wall here
[10:06] <knightwse> Hey Jordan , Yes it does
[10:06] <Pirate_Hunter> Rayz: <I'm back, I guess my ubuntu dont see the sata>??? what do u mean have you create a partition with gparted and r u sure the Biso sees your HD?
[10:07] <Jordan_U> knightwse, Then why are you using Samba?
[10:07] <knightwse> when I choose places / connect to server i can just enter the IP of the server and the share and it opens the folder just fine
[10:07] <knightwse> Jordan ? Can I use NFS ?
[10:07] <Devyll> can anyone suggest a nice weather applet for gnome please ?
[10:07] <Pirate_Hunter> Rayz: Are you using your Sata HD as a raid disk as that might be the problem
[10:07] <Kprofthreat> You could also use a KDE one you know
[10:07] <Kprofthreat> Like Kweather
[10:08] <CNTRLX> how can i listen on vnc viewer?
[10:08] <Jordan_U> knightwse, Yes, that is what Ubuntu uses by default also ( and all *NIX )
[10:08] <Rayz> Pirate_Hunter: my BIOS sees that HDD I told you I'm running XP too, its working perfect
[10:08] <knightwse> Just to be on the clear side here Jordan , i'm trying to mount a shared folder on my mac onto my linux machine
[10:09] <snaykero> POLAND GOOLAA :)
[10:09] <Jordan_U> !nfs | knightwse
[10:09] <ubotu> knightwse: nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[10:09] <knightwse> Jordan, So you're saying that instead of typing smbfs in the fstab i can type nfs ?
[10:09] <Rayz> Pirate_Hunter: can guide me to make this thingie work?
[10:09] <Pirate_Hunter> Rayz: well before I got to jordan he said the version your using is 2 years old you might want to upgrade otherwise you should just part it with gparted
[10:10] <Pirate_Hunter> Rayz: well if you have downloaded it, it is straight forward, copy it to CD, boot it and choose 1st option and keyboard layout than split the HDD and make the new section EXT3
[10:10] <stewraz> what is  nice looking media player for my mp3's
[10:11] <stewraz> the defult ubuntu one is rather plain
[10:11] <BaRbOnErOsSo> somebody can tell me the name of te italian channel plz?
[10:11] <Rayz> Pirate_Hunter: this wont screw the HDD ? I got many important files on this HDD
[10:11] <crdlb> !it | BaRbOnErOsSo
[10:11] <ubotu> BaRbOnErOsSo: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[10:12] <BaRbOnErOsSo> thank you
[10:12] <NaNO2x> hmm, any ideas why azureus isnt loading? right now i have it in terminal trying to load and it wont get past StartSocket: passing startup args to already-running Azureus java process listening on [127.0.0.1: 6880]   is there anything i can do to debug this? i forget how to ps all of the things perhaps that would help
[10:12] <Jordan_U> Rayz, You should always back up before repartitioning
[10:13] <Pirate_Hunter> Rayz:  cnat promise that it didnt screw mine and I ahd files on my XP but then just dont stop the process when it starts that a no no as it will damage the HDD, which mean clean reformat etc from scratch but than it is all up to you
[10:13] <ferronica> from where i can download Xubuntu Live CD ???
[10:13] <Pirate_Hunter> Rayz: save your most important data just encase I cnat be held responsible for any mistakes
[10:13] <GeekMaster1> Hi all. I would like to FIRST back up my Firefox bookmarks then COMPLETELY REMOVE Firefox, then re-install it. I downloaded the tar. GZ which is named firefox-2.0.0.4.tar.gz. That file is on my desktop. I was wondering if you guys could tell me how to do that.
[10:13] <Rayz> hmmm
[10:13] <ferronica> from where i can download Xubuntu Live CD for i386 ???
[10:13] <Jordan_U> ferret, xubuntu.com ?
[10:13] <Takesinn> How do I add another partition to fstab in ubuntu?
[10:13] <knightwse> Jordan ? this is the error I get : "wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //192.168.123.3/system,
[10:13] <knightwse> "
[10:14] <Takesinn> I can't get the bloody thing to rw
[10:14] <Jordan_U> Takesinn, What FS?
[10:14] <Teonnyn> Can anyone recommend a good DVD player that'll run most dvd's?
[10:14] <Takesinn> Jordan_U: ext3
[10:14] <Jordan_U> !DVD || Teonnyn
[10:14] <ubotu> | Teonnyn: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[10:14] <Jordan_U> !DVD | Teonnyn
[10:14] <GeekMaster1> I would like to FIRST back up my Firefox bookmarks then COMPLETELY REMOVE Firefox, then re-install it. I downloaded the tar. GZ which is named firefox-2.0.0.4.tar.gz. That file is on my desktop. I was wondering if you guys could tell me how to do that.. I was hoping someone could give me the EXACT commands to type in the terminal
[10:14] <knightwse> Geekmaster
[10:15] <Teonnyn> Thanks, Jordan :)
[10:15] <knightwse> Use googlesync
[10:15] <QwertyM> How do I change my window borders in Compiz-Fusion ?
[10:15] <QwertyM> Emerald ?
[10:15] <Takesinn> Jordan_U: I added it after the install to replace the old NTFS
[10:15] <Teonnyn> I've been fighting with the various DVD players for awhile, lol
[10:15] <Jordan_U> GeekMaster1, Why do you want to remove Firefox?
[10:15] <Takesinn> No need to have NTFS if I don't intend to install Windows again :P
[10:15] <Jordan_U> Teonnyn, Have you installed libdvdcss2 ?
[10:16] <Teonnyn> Jordan, no, I've been trying to find libdvdcss - not 2.
[10:16] <beni> Is there any Partition GUI on Ubuntu? I want to format my sda1
 gparted
[10:16] <Jordan_U> beni, gparted
[10:16] <tarzeau> beni: a partition gui doesn't write filesystems
[10:16] <tarzeau> beni: if you mean that with "format"
[10:17] <GeekMaster1> Jordan_U: I think the fonts are messed up. They are BLURY as hell. I did the "better sub-picxel rendering" tutorial and I have a ~/.fonts.conf file, but it's still blurry as HELL
[10:17] <Jordan_U> beni, It is the best partition program for any OS
[10:17] <beni> tarzeau: I want to "format" a partition to another FS.
[10:17] <NaNO2x> is there any like safe mode for azureus or anything?
[10:17] <noiesmo> Teonnyn, you can find libdvdcss http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/repository.php
[10:17] <tarzeau> beni: then you want to use mkfs.* the partition
[10:17] <tarzeau> beni: and not a partition gui
[10:17] <beni> tarzeau: why? Isnt there such a tool as Ubuntu shows during the installation? I really liked this one
[10:17] <Imsdle> how do you run a .pl file? I need to run optimize_mythdb.pl
[10:17] <tarzeau> beni: you're dos/windows infiltrated?
[10:18] <z0rz> I'd like to use Ubuntu as a firewall/router.  Is there some sort of a firewall starter package?  I'm really interested in traffic/stats graphing.
[10:18] <Flannel> beni: that's gparted
[10:18] <Jordan_U> GeekMaster1, I don't know what tutorial you are refering to and is this a problem with firefox only?
[10:18] <tarzeau> Imsdle: chmod +x optimize_mythdb.pl; ./optimize_mythdb.pl
[10:18] <Jordan_U> !firewall | z0rz
[10:18] <ubotu> z0rz: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[10:18] <Takesinn> Whats the fstab flag for letting ordinary users edit a filesystem?
[10:18] <enviouz> anybody else having probs with java using an unusually large amount of cpu?
[10:18] <stewraz> can i get some help guys. im new to linux and still learning., i downloaded a program in a tar.gz file
[10:18] <tarzeau> enviouz: yes
[10:18] <stewraz> what is the easiers way to install this
[10:18] <tarzeau> enviouz: just pkill -9 java (optionally -u user)
[10:19] <z0rz> Jordan_U: Is that it?
[10:19] <enviouz> k ty
[10:19] <tarzeau> stewraz: which program?
[10:19] <beni> And in Gparted in order to format sda1, i first need to unmount it, do it?
[10:19] <GeekMaster1> Jordan_U: Yes, it's a problem with Firefox only.
[10:19] <stewraz> xmms
[10:19] <Jordan_U> stewraz, What program? ( it is most likely available in the repos )
[10:19] <Imsdle> you guys rock!
[10:19] <Imsdle> thanks Tarzeau
[10:19] <tarzeau> beni: you don't NEED to, but you want to
[10:19] <GeekMaster1> Jordan_U: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_improve_sub-pixel_font_rendering_for_Feisty
[10:19] <enviouz> tarzeau:  will that interfer with progs that need java though?
[10:19] <z0rz> Should I use Ubuntu server or desktop for a firewall?
[10:19] <thedonvaughn> stewraz, ,tar.gz is just an archive file.  Most likely there is a README or INSTALL file after you extract it.  Btw you can extract it with "tar -zxf file.tar.gz"
[10:19] <tarzeau> enviouz: definitely
[10:19] <thedonvaughn> z0rz, for just a firewall, server
[10:20] <tarzeau> enviouz: they can suddenly disappear from the screen since you force kill them
[10:20] <beni> tarzeau: it seems you're familiar with this stuff, could you take me through this? :)
[10:20] <z0rz> thedonvaughn: Thanks
[10:20] <tarzeau> beni: just try, if you format it you probably don't have data to lose...
[10:20] <beni> tarzeau: I "want" to lose the data on this partition.. its my last XP install and i want it be ext3
[10:21] <enviouz> se thats my probs. strange thing is it doesnt always happen. just from time to time that i notice it. sometimes more often with the low latency kernel than the generic one
[10:21] <h4ngedm4n> which imap-server is most painless with ubuntu?
[10:21] <Jordan_U> GeekMaster1, Have you tried just re-installing firefox?
[10:21] <Zeph_> help is there a way to sync pocket pc with ubuntu?
[10:21] <GeekMaster1> Jordan_U: That's why I'm here
[10:22] <tarzeau> beni: then make sure it's not mounted
[10:22] <tarzeau> beni: no resize neede? mkfs.ext3 /dev/whatever1
[10:22] <aaveg> hi m facin sum prob in compilin my qt progs..it says dat d header files are not present..althoug i hv given d right path name..
[10:22] <tarzeau> beni: 1 can be 2, 3, 4 whatever partition it is
[10:22] <Jordan_U> GeekMaster1, I mean like: sudo apt-get install firefox --reinstall
[10:22] <beni> ok
[10:22] <stewraz> i extracted it and followed the instructions, but when i go to run the configure file i get a message
[10:22] <Flannel> h4ngedm4n: probably dovecot.  https://help.ubuntu.com/6.06/ubuntu/serverguide/C/email-services.html
[10:22] <stewraz> something about c ompiler
[10:22] <Zeph_> herrrooooooh!!! is there a way to sync pocket pc with ubuntu?!!!!!?!?!?!
[10:22] <stewraz> c compiler
[10:22] <Flannel> !repeat | Zeph_
[10:22] <ubotu> Zeph_: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[10:22] <GeekMaster1> Jordan_U: What you just said is the reason I came here. That's all I wanted to know
[10:22] <h4ngedm4n> Flannel: ok reading up :)
[10:23] <GeekMaster1> Jordan_U: Thank you
[10:23] <beni> tarzeau: look at query, it gives errors (unmounting in gparted)
[10:23] <Flannel> stewraz: you need 'build-essential', what are you compiling? XMMS is in the repositories.
[10:23] <Jordan_U> GeekMaster1, np :)
[10:23] <tarzeau> beni: query?
[10:23] <tarzeau> beni: you're probably not registered
[10:24] <h4ngedm4n> Flannel: wow that page looks so useful thanks
[10:24] <stewraz> fannel- which repository
[10:24] <GeekMaster1> Jordan_U: Still got blurry fonts. I just re-installed it
[10:24] <beni> aw
[10:24] <Zeph_> is there a way to sync pocket pc ?
[10:24] <CNTRLX> i cannot connect to my friends pc in vnc, what is going wrong?
[10:24] <beni> tarzeau:
[10:24] <beni> Most likely other partitions are also mounted on these mountpoints. You are advised to unmount them manually.
[10:24] <Flannel> stewraz: main.  So you hsould already be able to see it
[10:24] <tarzeau> beni: unmount the stuff? open a terminal, type mount and read
[10:24] <Flannel> Zeph_: please stop repeating your question so often.  We've seen it.
[10:24] <stewraz> through synptic packet manager
[10:24] <stewraz> flannel--
[10:25] <Flannel> stewraz: yes.  It'll be visible in synaptic.
[10:25] <stewraz> nope
[10:25] <stewraz> :(
[10:25] <Flannel> stewraz: are you connected to the intenret?
[10:25] <stewraz> sorry, yes found it
[10:25] <Flannel> stewraz: Pastebin your sources.list, if you can't find xmms, something may be wrong.
[10:26] <aaveg> plz can neone help me
[10:26] <Zeph_> stweraz did u update your repositories
[10:26] <beni> tarzeau: but man mount shows no command to unmount
[10:27] <Flannel> aaveg: Do you have the qt dev files?
[10:27] <BaRbOnErOsSo> hello
[10:27] <tarzeau> beni: well the command is umount /whatever
[10:27] <enviouz> beni the unmount command is "umount" if thats what yor looking for
[10:28] <aaveg> i tried installin dem..bt it demanded sum mor thngs
[10:28] <brad016> does anyone know how to getthe hex value of a pixel on your screen
[10:28] <Zeph_> whats the latest stable kernel for nvidia chipsets?
[10:28] <tarzeau> brad016: yes
[10:28] <tarzeau> brad016: many people know
[10:28] <Flannel> aaveg: That does happen.  But dependencies will all be sorted out automatically via package management.
[10:28] <BaRbOnErOsSo> i've got a samba/win lan but everytime i add a file in shared dir (from win) samba don take the permission of read it
[10:28] <tarzeau> Zeph_: in ubuntu?
[10:28] <brad016> tarzeau, how???
[10:28] <Zeph_> yes
[10:28] <brad016> tarzeau, yes
[10:28] <tarzeau> brad016: for example with the gimp, screenshot then that tool
[10:29] <enviouz> i use 2.6.22
[10:29] <Imsdle> i am running mythtv backend only on ubuntu server and running frontend only on ubuntu 7.04 desktop but am getting no sound
[10:29] <beni> enviouz: tarzeau: thanks :) Last question im running mkfs.ext3 now, it will delete my files, yes?
[10:29] <brad016> tarzeau, then what tool?
[10:29] <tarzeau> beni: it'll write a new filesystem. if there were files there , yes
[10:29] <aaveg> so shud i use apt 4 downlodin d devel files
[10:29] <beni> tarzeau: yahoo :) thanks guy gonna have breakfast now
[10:29] <Jordan_U> GeekMaster1, http://pykeylogger.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Ubuntuzilla ( I am not sure if this supports Feisty )
[10:29] <tarzeau> brad016: the 8th
[10:29] <brad016> tarzeau, what tool in gimp do i use?
[10:29] <brad016> tarzeau, hold on
[10:29] <Flannel> aaveg: apt-get or whatever other package manager frontend you like.  Yes.  Always use package management.
[10:29] <tarzeau> brad016: you don't have to repeat. starting gimp isn't that fast you know
[10:29] <Zeph_> mine says 2.6.20-16 386 is this correct?
[10:30] <BaRbOnErOsSo> how can i do? somebody could help me?
[10:30] <tarzeau> Zeph_: yes that's a kernel
[10:30] <enviouz> thats the latest fiesty one yes
[10:30] <tarzeau> Zeph_: you can have the latest one from www.kernel.org if you build it on your own
[10:30] <Flannel> aaveg: I believe the package you want is libqt4-dev, but you might also need additional ones.
[10:30] <enviouz> i use the kernel from the gutsy repos myself
[10:30] <Zeph_> graphics seem glitchy with this kernel
[10:30] <tarzeau> Zeph_: nvidia driver?
[10:30] <Zeph_> yep
[10:30] <tarzeau> Zeph_: which version of it?
[10:30] <Flannel> Zeph_: You probably want the generic kernel, not the 386 one.
[10:31] <Zeph_> glx version
[10:31] <tarzeau> Zeph_: version number MAN!
[10:31] <Zeph_> oh
[10:31] <aaveg> so where can i find all d requird packages..
[10:31] <tarzeau> "helicopter at front of microsoft building. - where am i? - ms employee: in the air"
[10:31] <tarzeau> HA HA HA
[10:31] <tarzeau> Zeph_: i would like to throw an empty plastic bottle in your direction now
[10:31] <Flannel> aaveg: That depends on the program you're compiling.  What is it?  you'll have to consult it's documentation for what it needs.
[10:32] <Zeph_> ?
[10:32] <brad016> tarzeau, thanx got it
[10:32] <Zeph_> yea i gotta pee i need that bottle
[10:32] <tarzeau> Zeph_: you didn't get it
[10:32] <Zeph_> oh
[10:32] <Zeph_> no
[10:32] <aaveg> its basically a chat prog..i am writin a gui 4 it..
[10:32] <tarzeau> Zeph_: there's no other nvidia driver than the glx one
[10:33] <tarzeau> Zeph_: and you said you have the nvidia driver with glx...
[10:33] <Flannel> Zeph_: you should probably switch to the generic kernel.  Since I imagine you have a newer processor than 386.
[10:33] <Jordan_U> tarzeau, This is supposed to be a polite channel, no bottle throwing :)
[10:33] <Zeph_> yes its amd 64
[10:33] <tarzeau> Jordan_U: that's why i didn't throw it :)
[10:33] <tarzeau> Jordan_U: i don't think i was impolite
[10:33] <Zeph_> but using 386 ubuntu
[10:33] <Flannel> Zeph_: you still want the generic kernel
[10:34] <Zeph_> well when i use the generic kernel my mouse freezes up
[10:34] <Zeph_> on this kernel it is not
[10:34] <Flannel> aaveg: In that case, you should know what dependencies you need.  But libqt4-dev will get you started.  That'll be all the generic Qt stuff, if you need additional stuff, you'll know it because you'll be using it whil writing
[10:34] <Flannel> Zeph_: fair enough.  Albeit odd.
[10:34] <moDumass> im off all, adios, thanks for all the help
[10:35] <Zeph_> unless it was the legacy usb stuff i turned off in my bios
[10:35] <aaveg> thnx..
[10:35] <Jordan_U> Zeph_, It seems strange that the kernel would cause the mouse to freeze, so I would lean toward it being something else
[10:35] <enviouz> Zeph_:  i had the same prob with the generic 2.6.20 kernel but not the low latency one
[10:36] <Zeph_> well i tryed switching drivers in my xorg and still wasnt it
[10:36] <Zeph_> so i was thinking it was the kernel since i had tryed everything
[10:36] <enviouz> Zeph_:  what version of the driver do you currently have?
[10:37] <Zeph_> hold on let me look
[10:38] <Pirate_Hunter> my rsolution is like 1024x800 an thats the highest in ubuntu. Now im thinking huh?? How do I force it to increase?
[10:38] <Jordan_U> Pirate_Hunter, What gfx card?
[10:38] <Zeph_> edit in your xorg.conf pirate
[10:39] <netG> Hi I'm planning to buy a new PC with integrated Intel X3000 G965

[10:39] <mohan34u> netG
[10:39] <ompaul> !ask | mohan34u
[10:39] <ubotu> mohan34u: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:39] <Jordan_U> Pirate_Hunter, Do you know what brand ( ati / intel / nvidia ) ?
[10:39] <mohan34u> I need some help

[10:40] <Pirate_Hunter> Jordan_U: how?
[10:40] <Takesinn> How can I add a new ext3 partition that my ordinary user has permission to?
[10:40] <netG> mohan34u : are you asking me?
[10:40] <Jordan_U> Pirate_Hunter, Do you know how to use synaptic / apt ?
[10:40] <Zeph_> hmm some reson my nvidia xsettings is gone
[10:40] <ompaul> mohan34u, ask the question __of__ __the__ __channel__, in full, on one line and you will get a better response
[10:41] <Pirate_Hunter> Jordan_U: u mean that is actually something I cna install through synaptic.... lol.. sorry will look for it
[10:41] <sks> i have a serious problem after install Ubuntu.... MY XP partition can't start because it goes to blue screen with UNMOUNTABLE_VOLUME error-... someone can help me....

[10:42] <Jordan_U> Pirate_Hunter, Yea, I have no idea why it isn't installed by default, there is a bug filed so that it hopefully will be in Gutsy
[10:42] <netG> sks : you have to try to repair Windows partition with Windows CD
[10:42] <sks> my work have a lot of program that runs on winoz
[10:43] <Pirate_Hunter> Jordan_U: kk will try after it install how do I access it?
[10:43] <Takesinn> Hello?
[10:43] <sks> netG: if i try to repair can i cause problem on grub?
[10:43] <Takesinn> Can anyone tell me how I add another partition?
[10:43] <Jordan_U> Pirate_Hunter, No need, just install the package and restart X, bam full resolution :)
[10:43] <sks> ubuntu and windows are on the same disk...
[10:44] <netG> yes it could remove GRUB, but is very simple to install grub again
[10:44] <ompaul> sks, more than likely but then you can do this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindow
[10:44] <Kprofthrea1> I recently renamed my home directory, but the home icon still says "Unable to run the command specified. The file or folder file:///home/jeryx does not exist." How would I fix that?

[10:46] <harisamin> can anybody help me with a DEBOOSTRAP error i keep on getting on installing the base system?
[10:46] <ompaul> sks, wrong way, you start by fixing windows with your windows disk and then you do grub with that url

[10:46] <Pirate_Hunter> Jordan_U & _Ahti: ok will try tell you in a sec
[10:46] <netG> when you get windows working

[10:54] <Hexxeh> Hey guys
[10:54] <Jordan_U> Pirate_Hunter, Try running this and choose "i810" as the driver and mark resolutions you want to use with space bar : sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh
[10:54] <Hexxeh> I've got two problems, and I'm hoping you'll be able to help me with them. I've got a dual headed setup, but on my secondary display the cursor just appears as a corrupted square. I've tried a reboot, but it's still like that. Any ideas?
[10:55] <Enselic__> Flannel: wow, looks mighty cool, thanks :)
[10:55] <Jordan_U> Hexxeh, Nvidia card?
[10:55] <Hexxeh> ATi.
[10:55] <Enselic__> Hexxeh: have you tried using software cursor?
[10:55] <Hexxeh> X1800XL All-in-Wonder
[10:55] <Hexxeh> How do I do that?
[10:55] <Jordan_U> Hexxeh, I think that that is because you are using a GPU accelerated cursor
[10:56] <Hexxeh> It was fine yesterday, then I swapped the primary and secondary monitors around and now it's doing it.
[10:56] <antonioabdulio> hey: someone knows how to open a document like this /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[10:56] <Hexxeh> sudo gedit /etc/etc/apt/sources.list
[10:57] <Jordan_U> Hexxeh, gksudo for GUI apps
[10:57] <Enselic__> Hexxeh: it is a X server option, like Option "UseSoftwareCursor" "yes"
[10:57] <Cyrus25801> hey guys how do I convert a rm file to avi?
[10:57] <antonioabdulio> Hexxeh: thanks!! do you know a link where I can find a list of a basic terminal commands? :)
[10:57] <Hexxeh> Will that slow anything down or break anything?
[10:57] <antonioabdulio> thanks again
[10:57] <Enselic__> Cyrus25801: look into ffmpeg or mencoder
[10:57] <Pirate_Hunter> Jordan_U: yeha about that do i put the rsolution at the end??
[10:58] <Hexxeh> antonioabdulio: Google "basic unix commands"
[10:58] <Enselic__> Hexxeh: it will be slower, but less error prone
[10:58] <Hexxeh> Should give you some basics.
[10:58] <Cyrus25801> Enselic__: thanx
[10:58] <Enselic__> Hexxeh: since it does not rely on incomplete drivers
[10:58] <Jordan_U> Cyrus25801, last time I tried real media was about the hardest codec to transcode from :(
[10:58] <Hexxeh> Will it affect running games through wine? Because that's my second problem.
[10:58] <Jordan_U> Pirate_Hunter, What do you mean?
[10:58] <antonioabdulio> thanks for your support Hexxeh
[10:59] <Enselic__> Hexxeh: I don't know, but I'd guess it will be *better* if you have problems now
[10:59] <Hexxeh> No problem :)
[10:59] <Hexxeh> Okay.
[10:59] <actualandrew> antonioabdulio: ss64.com
[10:59] <Enselic__> Hexxeh: sorry for not remembering the exact option

[11:03] <mohan34u> I need Text Mode Installation through that CD How to go? Help me.
[11:03] <Jordan_U> mohan34u, You need a different CD for a text mode install
[11:03] <ompaul> mohan34u, get the "server" from www.ubuntu.com
[11:04] <Jordan_U> ompaul, Why not get the "alternate" Desktop CD?
[11:04] <Hexxeh> Yeah :/
[11:04] <ompaul> Jordan_U, easier to get that
[11:04] <Ademan> Jordan_U: no I was thinking of writing a vim "tech demo" type app and/or video
[11:04] <mohan34u> Ok. thanks... one more.. When I install .. the Ubuntu Logo screen not appearing.. It went to blank what to do?
[11:04] <Jordan_U> ompaul, Not any more, they added a check box for alternate install

[11:05] <ubotu> mohan34u: For a list and explanation on some of the boot options, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
[11:05] <Hexxeh> It's only on the secondary screen that it does it, does that help?
[11:06] <mohan34u> Jordan_U, If you have any suggession about text mode, tell..
[11:06] <Hexxeh> brb. trying something else.
[11:06] <Jordan_U> !alternate | mohan34u
[11:06] <ubotu> mohan34u: 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
[11:07] <mohan34u> what is mean by VGA=071 in that installation option..
[11:08] <Frogzoo> mohan34u: sets vga to 1024x768 during boot

[11:16] <kismet> logan, its in the repo as well
[11:16] <[ThC] Primski> its core duo
[11:16] <brad016> whatever
[11:16] <nafis_devlpr> there is a Core 2 duo not duo core
[11:16] <[ThC] Primski> and its a model by intel
[11:16] <logan> do you know the package name?
[11:16] <[ThC] Primski> dual core, mean its got two cores
[11:16] <logan> or better yet how do I search package names in terminal?
[11:17] <crocodile> at the 2:20 mark of this video (a beryl demo) you see the guy playing with his program launcher.  What launcher program is it?  http://youtube.com/watch?v=ZD7QraljRfM
[11:17] <[ThC] Primski> logan, apt-cache search packagename
[11:17] <brad016> whats the difference
[11:17] <[ThC] Primski> amd has dual core procs too
[11:17] <[ThC] Primski> not core duo tho
[11:17] <[ThC] Primski> cus core duo is a model made by intel
[11:17] <kismet> logan, synaptic will put it up too, i think.
[11:17] <nafis_devlpr> both of them has 2 cores
[11:18] <nafis_devlpr> but core 2 duo consumes less energy
[11:18] <antonioabdulio> Jordan_U: sorry yes I did ask the same questions while ago. I restarted my ubuntu and I forgot to save my document

[11:18] <[ThC] Primski> was just trying to clarify the differences in terms, not make comparisons between models
[11:18] <Cyrus25801> brad016:  dual core 2.4ghz, 2.6ghz etc.    core duo 1.6ghz, 1.8 ghz.     core duo is faster
[11:19] <Cyrus25801> brad016:  dual core also known as pentium D
[11:19] <nafis_devlpr> nope cure 2 duo is lesser than dual core
[11:19] <kismet> george_, theres grub you could also play around with boot stage 1 since you have them installed on seperate hardisks
[11:19] <kismet> !grub < george_
[11:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about grub < george_ - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[11:30] <kismet> ds_, restart x that will probably do it, press ctrl+alt+backspace (note: it will log you out of your current session)
[11:30] <ds_> kismet: OK,I will do that.
[11:30] <Jordan_U> slantai, Are you sure that what you are trying to install is not available in any repositories, what is it exactly?
[11:30] <Jamie> Hi, everyone. I've been having trouble with my Wireless USB NIC.

[11:31] <ubuntu-newb> hi everyone
[11:32] <totherabc> hi^^

[11:32] <ds_> It does not help..
[11:32] <Jordan_U> !compile | slantai
[11:32] <Jamie> The fob is detected, but it's not reading as a network interface.
[11:32] <ubotu> slantai: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[11:32] <antonioabdulio> in Gaim internet messenger why I' not allowed to type a password with more then 13 characters? it's this ok??
[11:33] <Jamie> It's an Airlink101 AWLL3025V2.
[11:33] <logan> A lot of projects that were developed in windows but claim to support linux too only release the source code for said projects, is there an easy way to compile all the files in a directory?
[11:33] <kismet> ds_, open console, type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm force-reload
[11:33] <J_-> How can I paste in nano?
[11:33] <ds_> kismet: OK:)

[11:33] <neol> !nvidia
[11:33] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:34] <slantai>  Jordan_U: thanks bro i'll check that out
[11:34] <bentob0x> how do you get info on ports number?
[11:34] <Jordan_U> slantai, Is xboxconnect even a Linux application?
[11:34] <slantai> they have a tar for it
[11:34] <bentob0x> is there some console command I can type to know what service is tied to a given port?

[11:36] <leagris> If a device is bound to pktcdvd with udftools, It can't read DVD ROMs past the 4Gb limit. Is there a workaround? Did you experience the problem? See Bug #118310
[11:36] <Jordan_U> slantai, Is this a proprietary application ( it seems to be since you have to pay to get it ) because if it is then you are not compiling it

[11:37] <Jamie> My USB wireless fob, an Airlink101 AWLL3025V2, is being detected by Ubuntu, but not recognised as an available wireless networking interface. I don't have much experience, so the most I've done was to unplug it and plug it in again.
[11:38] <Invincible_1> How to install nvidia drivers
[11:38] <Jordan_U> Invincible_1, Restricted manager
[11:38] <Invincible_1> Yes
[11:38] <Jordan_U> Invincible_1, System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager
[11:38] <Invincible_1> No i want to install beryl
[11:38] <Invincible_1> i need 3D suppot
[11:39] <Jordan_U> Invincible_1, Yes, you need to use Restricted Driver Manager to get 3D support
[11:39] <Invincible_1> but the refresh rate is no more than 60 Hz
[11:40] <Hausberg> I have three video cards but I have a feeling that they do not get always the same device node /dev/dvb/adapter0 is not always the same card...? Can I define this?
[11:40] <Invincible_1> If i select the checkbox for 3d support
[11:40] <Rob125> Jamie: have you tried https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Airlink101_AWLL3026 ?
[11:40] <slantai> im not sure if it is proprietary...  it a program so that you can host games online
[11:40] <Invincible_1> lot a help
[11:41] <Invincible_1> I also have problem with AMI-IA92 modem in Ubuntu
[11:41] <Invincible_1> it cannot dial
[11:41] <slantai> i found a linux version tho
[11:41] <neol> Invincible_1: one problem at a time
[11:42] <frojnd> does Bluez support 2.0. USB adapters ??
[11:42] <Jordan_U> slantai, decompress it ( double click ) and see if there is a readme in it.
[11:42] <Invincible_1> You solved my first, no!
[11:42] <Jamie> Rob125, I seem to find terminal stuff as nonsensical.
[11:42] <imbecile> how can i set permissions for "computer" that i can move files there? i hate having to copy/paste files after a gksudo of nautilus.. there has to be an easier way.. I am the only person that uses this system so i want permissions to move files anywhere on my computer by drag/drop by drag/drop
[11:42] <neol> Invincible_1: do what as Jordan_U has suggested in nvidia driver
[11:42] <neol> Invincible_1: get ur nvidia driver ready
[11:42] <slantai> yeah there is one
[11:43] <Jamie> I'm not eager to mess about in the important stuff.
[11:43] <imbecile> please tell me there is a way
[11:43] <frojnd> does Bluez support 2.0. USB adapters ??
[11:43] <Spee_Der> imbecile, I use mc for doing just that. I use mc in terminal mode.
[11:43] <ds_> :'( My icons still appear
[11:43] <Invincible_1> Sorry, i cannot use internet through Ubuntu, my modem remember.
[11:43] <ds_> :'( My icons still disappear
[11:43] <Rob125> Jamie: it's fairly straightforward. It lays out exactly what you need to type. With what you're doing there's very little chance you'd mess up your system.
[11:43] <Flannel> imbecile: no you don't.  Permissions are a good thing, not having the power to do anything is a good thing.  Not only does it save you from your own accidents (which we all do), it also saves you from viruses/etc.
[11:43] <ksivaji> "apt-get install wine" where this command will store files of wine
[11:43] <neol> Invincible_1: then how are u connected now
[11:44] <slantai> when i do a ./configure i get a   error: C compiler cannot create executables
[11:44] <neol> brb restarting
[11:44] <Invincible_1> Through stupid windows
[11:44] <Catrik> Should I have ~/.xsession? I have only .xsession-errors
[11:44] <Invincible_1> I need those drivers
[11:44] <Spee_Der> Flannel, agreed....   I know too well about working on this when very tired. It is a life saver mode.
[11:44] <Flannel> slantai: you need build-essential.  What program are you installing?  It may be in the repository
[11:44] <imbecile> Flannel, I want to be able to save to stuff other than my desktop and move stuff there as well
[11:44] <Jamie> Rob125, what's the wlan0 interface?
[11:45] <Jordan_U> slantai, OK, then if it says to run ./configure , make, make install you are compiling from source, see the link from ubotu for that
[11:45] <Flannel> imbecile: You have your home folder.  That's where all of 'your' stuff goes.  What other stuff are you looking to put places?
[11:45] <bentob0x> thx melchior7, that seems to give me indications but I still getting tons of blocked connections via my firewall on port 27669 and I don't know what's going on :(
[11:45] <slantai> thanks of the help guys i'm gonna go read up on the compiler
[11:45] <Rob125> Jamie: wireless local area network 0.
[11:45] <slantai> ok
[11:45] <BlueD> Hello?
[11:45] <Jordan_U> !hi | BlueD
[11:45] <ubotu> BlueD: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[11:45] <Flannel> ksivaji: files get installed all over the place, in their correct places.  But you don't really need to concern yourself with where.  It works from anywhere, since it's in the path.  see !wine for help on using wine.
[11:46] <imbecile> Flannel,  ok thats what i needed to know.. ive been saving stuff in my filesystem in a folder i created and it was driving me nuts
[11:47] <Jamie> Thanks, Rob125.
[11:48] <tarelerulz> gyach3 , my system sound , flash player all don't seem to use my usb sound card ?
[11:48] <Invincible_1> The modem
[11:48] <Flannel> imbecile: yeah, put everything in your home folder (that's /home/username, or ~)  Of course, you can create a heirarchy inside of your home folder.  But home folders are life savers.  Especially when migrating/backing up/etc.
[11:49] <Invincible_1> My modem is more important
[11:49] <cRysTaL_ViSion> id like to control up/down limit to my p2p what am i lookin for?
[11:50] <imbecile> Flannel,  I never fail to make a fool out of myself when asking llinux questions.. thanks for helping me
[11:50] <imbecile> cRysTaL_ViSion,  what p2p?
[11:50] <Flannel> imbecile: eh, learning is a wonderful thing.  We all started out clueless at one point ;)

[12:12] <greg007> its magic
[12:13] <vandenoever> greg007: actually i meant getting the source debian package
[12:14] <Flannel> vandenoever: you download the source package, compile it, it produces a deb, you install that with dpkg
[12:14] <vandenoever> Flannel: problem is want the source deb file
[12:14] <greg007> just as Flannel said
[12:14] <vandenoever> not make a deb from a tar.gz
[12:15] <Flannel> vandenoever: Right.  That's whatI said.  You download the deb source, compile it into a deb, then install the deb with dpkg.
[12:15] <wols_> vandenoever: what is in your sources.list? do you have any "deb-src" lines?
[12:15] <wols_> if so you can use apt-get source

[12:46] <wols_> darwich: it's not executable as yoi can plainly see
[12:46] <wols_> Ubntu: since you already made a new partition: most probably not
[12:46] <Ubntu> >.<
[12:46] <darwich> wols_ what should i do to make it executeable ?
[12:46] <Lundn> Gyro54, dosent work.. another thing i cant choose wap / wap 2 wich is the encoding used by my royuter
[12:46] <Lundn> router
[12:46] <wols_> cause stuff is already overwritten. if you only had deleted the partition intry in the MBR, you could recreate it
[12:46] <wols_> darwich: man chmod
[12:46] <sebo> does anyone know if it's possible to run compiz iwth fglrx/xgl on a laptop with external monitor?
[12:47] <darwich> wols_ huh ? :o
[12:47] <wols_> Lundn: for wpa, you most probably need wpa-supplicant
[12:47] <Lundn> wols_, it says it is the latest version
[12:47] <wols_> darwich: I told you read documentation and pointed you to the proper docs. andything wrong with that?
[12:47] <Lundn> but i cant choose it
[12:47] <wols_> Lundn: you also need to configure it
[12:47] <sandman_> any idea guys?
[12:47] <kurtti> sebo, it's possible
[12:47] <Lundn> how ?
[12:48] <wols_> sandman_: what special characters? most probably your font doesn't have them (if they are little empty squares
[12:48] <wols_> you need a font then
[12:49] <sandman_> you know the special french characters
[12:49] <sebo> kurtti, maybe u know something I forgot? =) it is working without problems with normal x-server, but when I start ubuntu with xgl-session, the external monitor is black, and my cursor is an "X", and the laptop screen is normal, with 3d desktop
[12:49] <sandman_> what I have insted is just blank or the @ character
[12:50] <surviver> hello evry1, got question; is it normal i cant update my 6.10 (64bit) ubuntu to the 7.04 (i just did clean install)
[12:50] <wols_> sebo: the cursor being an X sounds like a missing WM of sorts
[12:50] <wols_> if you run Xorg without WM you get a big fat X as cursors on grey background

[12:57] <sebo> krutti, when I start ubuntu with normal gnome session, I got no problems, both monitors are working with correct resolution. but when I start ubuntu with the xgl session, to use compiz, my external monitor is fading black. but I can see my cursor, the "X" thing. my normal laptopscreen is working totally normal, with compiz.
[12:57] <Enselic__> wols_: yeah, must be something wrong with the dns
[12:57] <wols_> surviver: no. read what me and kandrews wrote. don't make sutff up
[12:57] <wols_> Enselic__: cat /etc/resolvconf/

[12:59] <neol> wols_: what the difference between aptitude and apt,,,, and amont this which is better ??
[12:59] <Enselic__> wols_: I don't have such a file, I will create one though, that will solve this I'm sure, thanks
[01:00] <moldy> when i try to mount /home over NFS with feisty, i cannot login anymore. does anyone have an idea why?
[01:00] <wols_> neol: use aptitude. it has better dependency resolution. a few things can't be done with aptitude, then use apt-get for that only
[01:00] <sebo> or is it possible to use only the external monitor, instead of the laptopscreen? I use the laptop mostly as desktop-pc. maybe then the 3d-desktop will work
[01:00] <surviver> wols_, u mean the space between - ..?
[01:00] <wols_> Enselic__: i am very sure you have /etc/resolv.conf
[01:00] <Enselic__> wols_: I really don't

[01:34] <dehm> local pass enc
[01:34] <wols_> dehm: that would be irc client dependent
[01:34] <Kprofthreat> !dontask | Kael
[01:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dontask - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:35] <Leo89> ok thanks for your advices, guys! Time to work now ;)
[01:35] <RainC1> wols_: but mysql-bin.index exists
[01:35] <Kprofthreat> I was trying to install gimpshop, but when I get to the part where I enter sudo make, and sudo make install, it stops. Gives me "o targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop." Help please?
[01:35] <wols_> dehm: and rather silly. how do you propose the program decrypts the passwords when it'S stored on disk?
[01:35] <wols_> RainC1: bit dis ^G is kinda strange? did you edit my.cnf under windows or edit it at all?
[01:35] <RainC1> wols_: I don't even have Windows
[01:36] <RainC1> and I didn't know about that file :p
[01:36] <wols_> RainC1: still, where does this ^G come from?
[01:36] <dehm> i was searching and i got some hits  on google but i don't know which one is worth it
[01:36] <wols_> dehm: can you please answer my question?
[01:36] <RainC1> wols_: I don't know. should I check that my.conf file?
[01:36] <gdb> huh odd
[01:36] <kael> if anyone can help, when connecting my palm i got dmesg :   297.332000]  usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 6
[01:36] <kael> [  297.356000]  usb 2-1: device descriptor read/8, error -71
[01:36] <kael> [  297.484000]  usb 2-1: device descriptor read/8, error -71
[01:36] <t1g3r> wols_: ive got the output you needed!
[01:37] <gdb> ^G is the terminal bell
[01:37] <SoulChild> Hey all
[01:37] <t1g3r> shall i pvt it to you?
[01:37] <What_the_Deuce> wols: the command you gave me opened 2 text files, 2.6.20-15 and 2.6.20-16, any idea why. and which one i should edit?
[01:37] <dehm> wols_, let me thing ... i've stayed up all night
[01:37] <wols_> !paste | t1g3r
[01:37] <ubotu> t1g3r: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[01:37] <SoulChild> What's the name of this programm in the left of this picture http://gnomelook.org/CONTENT/content-pre1/19839-1.png ... the window with all information about your computer
[01:37] <gdb> i think your terminal doesn't support a bell function and whatever is giving you the error is trying to sound the terminal bell
[01:37] <Lo_Pan> gkrellm
[01:37] <wols_> What_the_Deuce: I did not give you such a command. and: you edit whichever you want. you should know your kernel version when you want to change its config
[01:38] <dehm> wols_, it would have to have a lib of sorts?
[01:38] <wols_> dehm: no, that's not it. to decrypt it it needs a password. where does this password reside?
[01:39] <dehm> master pass
[01:39] <SoulChild> Can someone help me? i need to know which programm this is:  http://gnomelook.org/CONTENT/content-pre1/19839-1.png (the window with all information about your compuer)
[01:39] <t1g3r> wols_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26988/
[01:39] <t1g3r> this paste page is brilliant!
[01:39] <dehm> forgive my ignorance
[01:40] <wols_> dehm: so, that master pass is stored how?
[01:40] <wols_> dehm: do you see the problem?
[01:40] <dehm> yess
[01:40] <dehm> well example, psybnc stores the password encrypted in the config file
[01:41] <wols_> dehm: that idoocy of psybnc. how does it decrypt it?
[01:41] <wols_> simply make the config file only readable to yourself and be done with it
[01:41] <dehm> true
[01:41] <dehm> ;)
[01:41] <dehm> im a paranoid fellow
[01:42] <wols_> if you really are paranoid you want a script that asks you everytime for the password. or that gets it from a remote storage thing like an usb stick, but preferably a smartcard which stores the pw
[01:43] <Frogzoo> but then you need a password to unlock the usb - lol
[01:43] <dehm> or a rotating pass
[01:44] <dehm> that's a little overkill
[01:44] <Turbooster> I tried restarting the gdm
[01:44] <kael> plz someone here had some experiences with palm syncing / feisty?
[01:45] <Turbooster> and it says [OK] 
[01:45] <t1g3r> wols_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26988/ did you get a chance to have a look for me?
[01:45] <t1g3r> cheers bud
[01:45] <Turbooster> so it should be already running
[01:45] <Turbooster> Is there a log file I could show?
[01:46] <wols_> t1g3r: yes and it looks as you didn't have a connection to your windows. sudo /etc/init.d/netwroking restart. any errors, especially DHCPOFFER?
[01:46] <dehm> oh, i do have a legit question. I can't get identd to work. I'm behind a NAT and I am battling the masqing..
[01:46] <Kprofthreat> I was trying to install gimpshop, but when I get to the part where I enter sudo make, and sudo make install, it stops. Gives me "o targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop." Help please?
[01:46] <wols_> Turbooster: press ctrl+alt+f7
[01:46] <Turbooster> I restarted and X cursor didn't show up, but rather the normal login
[01:46] <zs6jce> quit
[01:47] <Turbooster> what does ctrl+alt+f7 do?
[01:47] <wols_> goes to VT number 7
[01:47] <wols_> which is where X usually runs
[01:47] <Turbooster> what us VT?
[01:47] <wols_> virtual terminal
[01:48] <Raiders32> Hello, where can I find the kernel headers for Edgy?
[01:48] <Turbooster> and what can I do there?
[01:48] <wols_> Raiders32: in the linux-headers package for your kernel
[01:48] <mrsn0> Raiders32 the linux-headers package
[01:48] <mrsn0> :-)
[01:48] <wols_> Turbooster: it's where you use X.where are you now? console irc client?
[01:49] <Turbooster> hm no windows dual boot...
[01:49] <RainC1> wols_: well, I think that the problem actually is that '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' doesn't exist
[01:49] <Turbooster> What's the name of the console IRC client
[01:50] <dehmmy> Turbooster, which one
[01:50] <wols_> RainC1: that is a soeckt file made by mysql when it runs so local programs can access mysql
[01:50] <neol> my totem movie player is not playing any files...  ??? which files do i need to install
[01:50] <Turbooster> one I can run in console
[01:50] <wols_> Turbooster: irssi
[01:50] <dehmmy> ircii, bitchx, scrollz, irssi
[01:50] <dehmmy> etc
[01:50] <Raiders32> mrsn0: are they already installed, or do I have download them?
[01:50] <Turbooster> installed by default?
[01:50] <dehmmy> sirc
[01:50] <mrsn0> Raiders32 you will need to install/download it from synaptic/apt
[01:51] <wols_> dehmmy: that with identd is a problem with your port forwarding. unless you use ubuntu as a router: no ubuntu problem
[01:51] <Leo89> Guys, I need to edit /etc/ppp/chap-secrets  file for my VPN connection, but it's denided. How to edit that file?
[01:51] <Turbooster> like apt-get irssi?
[01:51] <kael> someone could tell me about this msg when connectiong usb device :  device descriptor read/8, error -71
[01:51] <wols_> Raiders32: also get build-essnetial
[01:51] <wols_> Turbooster: yes
[01:51] <Turbooster> thanks a lot!
[01:51] <dehmmy> wols_, ports correctly forward on hardware Linksys NAT to my LAN IP
[01:51] <neol> wols_: totem player is not playing is not playing avi files ??

[01:54] <kael> hmmm plz anyone can help with an usb strange msg...?
[01:54] <kael> seems like usb device not correctly seens by kernel
[01:55] <Enselic__> It appears as if I compile GIMP *faster* on i386 on an AMD64. How is that possible? Drivers optimized for i386?
[01:56] <turbooster> ok here i am again
[01:56] <INIT_6> Wow, there are a lot of people in here.
[01:57] <turbooster> ctrl alt f7 did nothing for me
[01:57] <turbooster> i tried to install the driver for radeon if this helps
[01:57] <turbooster> but I think this is OK again
[01:58] <INIT_6> did you start your Xwindows
[01:58] <turbooster> how do I see?
[01:58] <INIT_6> cuz ctrl alt f7 is your GUI
[01:58] <mrsn0> nice nick INIT_6 :-)
[01:58] <INIT_6> lol, yeah, I have to restart a lot
[01:59] <turbooster> after login I only see the ubuntu-colored desktop and nothing else
[01:59] <turbooster> and I can start in safe terminal mode
[01:59] <INIT_6> I have tried Gentoo, SUSE 10.2. both try to load a modual what makes the kernal crash, So I am trying ubuntu see if it works
[01:59] <turbooster> (that's where I am now)
[02:00] <INIT_6> So it's not loading up. Switch to your other terminal to see if it gives you any errors
[02:00] <Jowi> turbooster, is this a fresh install or, what did you do before gnome startup went corrupt?
[02:00] <INIT_6> like alt+f1-12
[02:00] <enviouz> how do i stop ntfs volumes from auto mounting?
[02:01] <wols_> enviouz: don't put them in /etc/fstab
[02:01] <INIT_6> go into the fstab file and change it
[02:01] <wols_> or remove the "auto" in the options for them
[02:01] <enviouz> k ty
[02:01] <turbooster> not a fresh install
[02:01] <t1g3r> wols_: i got no DHCPOFFERS received
[02:01] <turbooster> no error msgs in other terminals
[02:01] <t1g3r> when i ran that command
[02:01] <wols_> t1g3r: do you have a switch or crossover cable?
[02:02] <t1g3r> well apart from a lot of other text, would u like to see the full output?
[02:02] <turbooster> and I tried to install the ati drivers
[02:02] <wols_> t1g3r: no
[02:02] <SoulChild> Can someone help me? i need to know which programm this is:  http://gnomelook.org/CONTENT/content-pre1/19839-1.png (the window with all information about your compuer)
[02:02] <Aviel> hey all
[02:02] <Lo_Pan> GKRELLM
[02:02] <Aviel> is ubuntu good for servers?
[02:02] <Lo_Pan> SoulChild: gkrellm
[02:02] <INIT_6> I hope so, aviel
[02:02] <SoulChild> Lo_Pan: talking to me ?
[02:02] <wols_> SoulChild: you got already told before: gkrellm. stop asking repeatedly
[02:02] <SoulChild> Lo_Pan: ahh ok thanks
[02:02] <wols_> SoulChild: yes he is, and I am too
[02:02] <Jowi> turbooster, when you say that "after I try to login" do you mean after GDM (the login screen) is displayed?
[02:03] <sahil_> for some reason my windows drives are not mounting anymore?
[02:03] <turbooster> yes exactly
[02:03] <sahil_> i ntfs-3g them wheni git Ubuntu and everything was fine
[02:03] <Jowi> turbooster, to see if the problem is system wide or if it is only for the user you tried to log in with, create a new user and try to login with that. "sudo adduser mytest"
[02:03] <wols_> sahil_: there are error messages. what are they?
[02:03] <Jowi> turbooster, ...where "mytest" is the username
[02:03] <sahil_> wols_ no error messages
[02:03] <SoulChild> wols_: sorry i didn't know that he was talking to me before,... cause only to answere gkrellm is not very informative
[02:03] <turbooster> sec
[02:04] <sahil_> when i open up my computer there are no icons for my windows partitions
[02:04] <t1g3r> wols_: i have a cat.5 patch cable connecting the two, dont havea  switch, i think this cable is a crossover one, ill confirm in a few mins
[02:04] <sahil_> and there a re broken links to folders on those partitions on my desktop
[02:04] <INIT_6> sahil that doesn't mean there not mounts
[02:04] <INIT_6> mounted*
[02:04] <netG>  how about the fs (userspace file system) compiz plugin? what does it do?
[02:04] <sahil_> INIT_6 then what do it mean?
[02:05] <wols_> !effects | netG
[02:05] <ubotu> netG: For help with Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects
[02:05] <lindog> hi  i am new to ubuntu is there a firewall ?where do i find it to enable it?
[02:05] <StatusXxX> How do you install PHP support to Apache?
[02:05] <INIT_6> could mean you just don't have an icon. where is your mount point? /vol_name
[02:05] <wols_> lindog: you don't need one
[02:05] <Jowi> !firewall | lindog
[02:05] <ubotu> lindog: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[02:05] <wols_> !lamp | StatusXxX
[02:05] <ubotu> StatusXxX: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP.

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+)
[02:05] <StatusXxX> apt-get install php5 didn't quite do it
[02:05] <sahil_> INIT_6 but everything was working fine b4
[02:05] <netG> wols_ : thanks
[02:05] <sahil_> i dont know where the mount point is
[02:05] <Jowi> lindog, if you want to configure the built in firewall I would suggest that you install firestarter (sudo apt-get install firestarter)
[02:05] <wols_> sahil_: mount. run it
[02:06] <sahil_> it was SDA 1 and SDA 5 the names of the driver
[02:06] <lindog> ubotu: thanks
[02:06] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[02:06] <sahil_> wols_ just type "mount" in the terminal?
[02:06] <wols_> yes

[02:07] <sahil_> ohhh
[02:07] <daren> Hi
[02:07] <INIT_6> lol
[02:07] <sahil_> 1 sec i will do that, sorry
[02:07] <daren> I forgot my password for my ubuntu, what can I do ?
[02:07] <INIT_6> crack it
[02:07] <daren> Can you tell my how ?
[02:07] <INIT_6> daren you forgot your root password?
[02:07] <turbooster> Jowi: testuser didn't work either
[02:07] <sahil_> wols_ http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26991/
[02:07] <daren> INIT_6: I have no root account
[02:07] <INIT_6> what
[02:07] <daren> I forgot my main password
[02:08] <Jowi> daren, boot into recovery mode, then use the "passwd" command to change the password for that user.
[02:08] <INIT_6> then you don't have linux
[02:08] <wols_> !root < INIT_6
[02:08] <turbooster> (sorry if the name is wrong, it's yellow on white)
[02:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about root < init_6 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:08] <daren> INIT_6: The root account is default disabled in ubuntu
[02:08] <wols_> !root > INIT_6
[02:08] <INIT_6> what
[02:08] <INIT_6> that is gay
[02:08] <basse_> no it isnt
[02:08] <daren> that is secure
[02:08] <RainCT> !root | INIT_6
[02:08] <ubotu> INIT_6: 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] <wols_> daren: boot from a livecd and change your password
[02:09] <daren> I boot in recovery mode now
[02:09] <wols_> or boot in recovery mode and change it there
[02:09] <sahil_> wols_ do you know what all that means?
[02:09] <Frogzoo> INIT_6: sudo -i will get you a root shell, so you can wreak havoc
[02:09] <Jowi> turbooster, if the testuser didn't work then I don't know. maybe check the logs (they are in /var/logs)
[02:09] <INIT_6> lol
[02:09] <t1g3r> argh fucksticks
[02:09] <turbooster> ah ok I'll look
[02:09] <INIT_6> I only sudo anyways but still wired
[02:09] <wols_> t1g3r: don't talk like this in here if you wanna stay
[02:09] <t1g3r> wols_: just checked the wiring on the cable and found out its not a xover cable
[02:09] <StatusXxX> So how did you install the PHP Support to Apache?
[02:09] <t1g3r> so sorry
[02:10] <t1g3r> such a waste of time, i was told this was a xover cable
[02:10] <turbooster> btw is there a way to set it to the default (like a clean install)?
[02:10] <wols_> StatusXxX: you start by reading what ubotu told you
[02:10] <kane77> what are the advantages of using MySQL in amarok instead of SQLite?
[02:10] <StatusXxX> wols_ what?
[02:10] <Frogzoo> kane77: sooo much faster searches
[02:10] <GamezBeCJ> hi there ... anyone knows where can I find information on installing windows printer drivers?

[02:10] <StatusXxX> Thanks!
[02:10] <hylje> kane77: reliability, as it is not as likely to die on yhou
[02:10] <kane77> Frogzoo, realy? then I'm going to switch to mysql I guess..
[02:10] <StatusXxX> There is so much stuff goin on that i missed it
[02:11] <Frogzoo> kane77: after about 1000 songs, it's a necessity
[02:11] <AzMoo> Does anybody know of a good standalone starter bar launcher thingo like the one in gdesklets?
[02:11] <Jowi> kane77, sqlite is not comparable to a fullblown mysql install. sqlite is useful for apps that want some sql/database capabilities without having to rely on something heavy as mysql
[02:11] <kane77> Frogzoo, I have about 10 000 and was wondering if it gets any faster...
[02:11] <mezziah> AzMoo: kiba-dock
[02:12] <AzMoo> mezziah, cheers.

[02:12] <GamezBeCJ> hi there ... anyone knows where can I find information on installing windows

[02:12] <pescez> best
[02:13] <GamezBeCJ> hi there ... anyone knows where can I find information on installing windows printer drivers?
[02:13] <Jowi> kael, lsusb list all connected devices. if you don't connect your palm it won't show :)
[02:13] <Frogzoo> kane77: plus it's best to run all your databases on just the one dbms
[02:13] <wols_> Jowi: you can't install windows printer drivers in ubuntu. and asking about windows itself is OT here
[02:13] <GamezBeCJ> apologize
[02:13] <Jowi> wols_, :)
[02:13] <kael> Jowi, first thanx for ur answer, but i made it connect  and pressed sync, but it doenst show
[02:13] <wols_> oops. not you Jowi
[02:13] <GamezBeCJ> I'm just trying ti install a printer...
[02:14] <AzMoo> pescez, ta, I'll take a look at that too

[02:14] <kael> Jowi, in fact the problem is due to the usb, the pda seems not to be recognized, even if connected
[02:15] <GamezBeCJ> thanks ubotu ...
[02:15] <t1g3r> nics?
[02:15] <kane77> Frogzoo, so I install mysql-server package?
[02:15] <t1g3r> ah u mean ics
[02:15] <Jowi> kael, so you mean that it does not show in lsusb at all? then you probably need to load a driver for it.
[02:15] <kael> kernel should see the device and install it, but its givin : [ 2281.524000]  usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 10
[02:15] <kael> [ 2281.548000]  usb 2-2: device descriptor read/8, error -71
[02:16] <Israfil> ok thx
[02:16] <Frogzoo> kane77: aye, then you'll need to create a user/password to access the db & plug that into amarok's settings
[02:16] <kael> Jowi, right, it doesnt show at al
[02:16] <kane77> Frogzoo, ok, thx
[02:16] <kael> Jowi may i im you?

[02:16] <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+)

[02:17] <Jowi> kael, sorry to say, I know nothing about palm devices.
[02:17] <faemir> Does anyone know of an xchat - exaile now playing script?
[02:17] <Jowi> !palm | kael
[02:17] <ubotu> kael: A good guide for setting up Palm devices is at http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-HOWTO/PalmOS-HOWTO.html#PC-CONNECT-USB
[02:17] <kael> ok Jowi, but what about usb? in fact i dont think it is a palm problem... maybe an usb problem or smthg like that
[02:18] <Jowi> kael, I think that it is a driver prob. maybe that page that ubotu spat out can help you
[02:18] <RainCT> wols_: got MySQL working, removed my.cnf and now it's ok :)
[02:18] <lindog> ubotu: to run iptables i must log as root now when i installed ubuntu it never asked me to set it is there default admin password - how do i log as root?
[02:19] <RainCT> wols_: thanks anyways
[02:19] <Jowi> !root | lindog
[02:19] <ubotu> lindog: 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
[02:19] <kael> goin to take a look , thx to Jowi and ubotu
[02:20] <Jowi> lindog, ubuntu uses "sudo". to run a command as root use "sudo command" or "sudo -i" to get a 'root' shell.
[02:20] <StatusXxX> Can i use Apache 1.3?
[02:20] <Jowi> lindog, all users that are a part of the admin group have that option (to use sudo)
[02:20] <kbrooks> lindog, if you ever use sudo -i, please type "exit" when you're finished using it
[02:21] <Jowi> lindog, by default, the first user you created is a part of the admin group.
[02:21] <AzMoo> pescez, do you know if I can turn off the task display in avant?
[02:21] <neol> wols_: i have dowloaded a *.gz file... how to open that with " Ubuntu Package manager " ??
[02:22] <neol> sorry " Ubuntu package Menu "
[02:22] <neol> wols_:
[02:22] <Jowi> !sudo | lindog (read this)
[02:22] <ubotu> lindog (read this): sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[02:22] <INIT_6_> does the ubuntu server, support software raid 0. I am sure it does and to lazy to read.
[02:22] <AzMoo> neol, you can't, .gz is an archive, not a package.
[02:22] <J_-> what's a good terminal besides gnome-terminal (something light) that will function as a nice full-featured terminal with URLs you can click on and copy/paste right click menu? something that'll work in fluxbod?
[02:22] <StatusXxX> That manual only explains how to install PHP support for apache 2.0
[02:22] <StatusXxX> I wanna use 1.3
[02:23] <lindog> Jowi: whan i type su it ask me for password and one i use to log doesn't work
[02:23] <kbrooks> lindog, use sudo
[02:23] <Jowi> lindog, "sudo"
[02:23] <surviver> hello, i just updated my system to 7.04 from 6.10, now i want to make a bootable cd with the 7.04 is it possible?
[02:24] <Jowi> lindog, read the link that ubotu gave. it contain vital info

[02:25] <Jowi> lindog, "gksudo firestarter" and use your normal password.
[02:26] <wols_> neol: you can't. you use tar for that.
[02:26] <StatusXxX> What repository contains the Apache 1.3 shit?
[02:27] <wols_> StatusXxX: is there a php5 for apache1.3 in ubuntu? heck, is there a apache1.3=

[02:27] <wols_> jrib: see waht jrib said
[02:28] <wols_> jrib: does universe get security patches?
[02:28] <RainCT> StatusXxX: in universe there is a package 'apache', that has probably the latest version of Apache 1.x
[02:28] <StatusXxX> i have /usr/sbin/apache and /usr/sbin/apache2
[02:28] <StatusXxX> i wanna get rid of one of those
[02:28] <wols_> StatusXxX: dpkg -l |grep apache
[02:28] <jrib> wols_: yes, though they aren't guaranteed I think
[02:28] <PriceChild> StatusXxX, there is apache 1.3... it is called "apache"
[02:28] <StatusXxX> apt-get remove apache did it
[02:28] <PriceChild> StatusXxX, apache 2.2 is labelled apache2
[02:28] <wols_> jrib: if there is no guarantee it'S worthless as security update imho
[02:28] <PriceChild> did you look at synaptic at all?
[02:29] <Spee_Der> Good morning everyone.
[02:29] <StatusXxX> yea
[02:29] <INIT_6_> it's not morning if you haven't gone to bed yet

[02:31] <ParanoyaM> my question is : why i can't see windows neighborhood
[02:31] <rem_> .
[02:31] <onts1004> .
[02:31] <INIT_6_> because linux hates windows.
[02:31] <ParanoyaM> :)
[02:32] <ParanoyaM> i see
[02:32] <ParanoyaM> thanks
[02:32] <onts1004> good
[02:32] <INIT_6_> j/k
[02:32] <INIT_6_> not sure, you might have to have a samba server setup on your linux
[02:32] <ParanoyaM> i have it
[02:32] <rem_> smbclient -L -u "user"  ip  Paranoya
[02:32] <rem_> something like that ..

[02:33] <pescez> AzMoo, no options AFAIK about it..
[02:33] <kbrooks> INIT_6, jokes do not transfer over very well on IRC.
[02:33] <ParanoyaM> only workgroup
[02:33] <rem_> or use a smb client like Linneighborhood
[02:34] <INIT_6_> ParanoyaM can your windows box see your linux box at all?
[02:34] <ParanoyaM> dunno i can't check it
[02:34] <StatusXxX> apache2: Syntax error on line 189 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Could not open configuration file /etc/apache2/httpd.conf: No such file or directory

[02:35] <StatusXxX> Jello yes
[02:36] <StatusXxX> Use RegEXBuddy

[02:38] <nhy> does anyone know what the channel for compiz fusion is?
[02:38] <ParanoyaM> sorry

[02:38] <RedParrot> I recently installed Ubuntu on a new computer and the sound is not working at all. I have checked the speakers (they work), and I have turned the volume on everything to the max. The modules do appear to be installed properly and Ubuntu is recognizing that a soundcard (it is onboard). Any suggestions?
[02:38] <kbrooks> ParanoyaM, in this case, HOME
[02:38] <nhy> gnomefreak: thnx
[02:38] <ParanoyaM> kbrooks, what do you mean?
[02:38] <gnomefreak> nhy: yw
[02:38] <wols_> RedParrot: what soundcard? either snd-hda-intel based or some ati, right?
[02:38] <Jello> I just need to have the value between ( and ) (the first ( and first ) ) :s for example
[02:38] <Jello> test (45)" => 45
[02:38] <Jello> How can I do this?
[02:39] <Jowi> ParanoyaM, so the windows machines are also in the HOME workgroup i guess? are they on a LAN? do they have software firewalls? have you tried disabling the firewalls? did you reastart samba after you changed the workgroup?
[02:39] <RedParrot> snd_hda_intel
[02:39] <jrib> Jello: try #perl , that's a better place to ask perl programming questions
[02:40] <ParanoyaM> jowi, yes they are.
[02:40] <Jello> yes, they just say 'learn perl'
[02:40] <Jello> and it's just for one command :p
[02:40] <Jello> I program in Objective-C, not perl
[02:40] <kbrooks> Jello, python's easy: int(''.join(c for c in s if not c.isalpha()))
[02:40] <alexou>  with fglrx driver what are the options VideoOverlay and OpenGLOverlay
[02:41] <kbrooks> Jello, ask the right channel

[02:42] <ParanoyaM> i have restarted Ubuntu hundrets times
[02:42] <phaedral> have feedback on 32429: "dappers lynx can't talk to google"
[02:42] <Jowi> ParanoyaM, please rephrase. I don't understand what you wanted to say.

[02:43] <troy> hello!
[02:43] <ParanoyaM> jowi, i don't know, when i has windows os they could
[02:44] <Enselic__> Lundn: you don't want to build the compiler yourself
[02:44] <Enselic__> Lundn: it's very hard
[02:44] <Lundn> ok
[02:44] <ParanoyaM> jowi, and now i don't know

[02:45] <kbrooks> Raiders32, uhm, s = "(42)", and iterating over that string does not give you ". it gives you (, 4, 2, and ).

[02:46] <RainCT> kbrooks: yes, and Jello was asking how to get only the numbers
[02:46] <troy> I'm not sure what the problem is yet...
[02:46] <Enselic__> Lundn: have you read documentation?
[02:46] <troy> I could be back...
[02:47] <ParanoyaM> jowi, yes they can see each other
[02:47] <Lundn> i read about the wpa-supplicant
[02:47] <Enselic__> Lundn: so youu are connecting wirelessly to a router?
[02:47] <Lundn> yes
[02:47] <Enselic__> Lundn: what does iwconfig give?

[02:48] <JC_Denton_> how do i enable remote xdmcp login on a machine using console only?
[02:48] <Jordan_U> SoulChild, I think that they both have their place, and obviously ubuntu would be nothing without debian
[02:48] <SoulChild> Jordan_U: that's right
[02:48] <Enselic__> SoulChild: If you havn't tried Ubuntu and likes Debian, why don't give it a shot?
[02:48] <phaedral> jrib: looking at 27253, might still have feedback; from virt console or ssh into localhost lynx to google is fine; it's any shell direct in gnome that seems to barf on lynx to google
[02:49] <IdleOne> !offtopic
[02:49] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!

[02:49] <Jowi> JC_Denton_, xdmcp need an X session no?
[02:49] <ParanoyaM> jowi, i am not expert in this but i don't any errors at startup
[02:49] <ParanoyaM> in log file yes
[02:49] <Enselic__> Lundn: what is link quality?
[02:49] <jrib> phaedral: you should comment on the bug
[02:49] <phaedral> i'm not the gearhead who can figure from the printenv to know what's the problem...
[02:49] <SoulChild> Enselic__: i tried both and i prefere debian ,..
[02:49] <Lundn> 93/100
[02:49] <Enselic__> Lundn: how good is it?
[02:49] <ParanoyaM> jowi, but in log file i see errors
[02:49] <Jowi> ParanoyaM, what type of errors?
[02:49] <Jowi> !samba | ParanoyaM

[02:49] <Sam234> Why is it that music from amarok plays concurrently with a couple of my games eg neverball however, if I play tuxkart then the sound from tuxkart cannot be heard?
[02:49] <phaedral> jrib: k; didn't really wanna register since I'm actually using debian stable...but I found the but at your site, so there I'll comment
[02:50] <JC_Denton_> jowi not sure but the problem is the machine wont accept direct input so i want to enabel xdmcp via ssh then remote login
[02:50] <justin__> Enoex, any other browser you use?

[02:51] <Jowi> JC_Denton_, check /etc/gdm/gdm.conf
[02:51] <Lundn> Enselic__,  but there is no were i can specify it isnt using any pw in ubuntu

[02:52] <Lundn> yeah
[02:52] <Lundn> i turned the roaming mode on now
[02:52] <Jowi> ParanoyaM, ubotu gave you a link on info about samba.
[02:52] <Enselic__> Lundn: can you see your network when you click on the icon?
[02:52] <Lundn> yes
[02:52] <Lundn> and i clicked
[02:52] <Lundn> the icon faded away
[02:52] <Lundn> now it works >S
[02:53] <Enselic__> Lundn: works now? great
[02:53] <Enselic__> Lundn: so now we shall setup it for encryption ok?
[02:53] <Lundn> yeah
[02:53] <Enselic__> Lundn: what encryption do you use
[02:53] <Lundn> i use wpa / wpa 2
[02:53] <Enselic__> Lundn: please be precise

[02:54] <micman> i got ncurses lib error when i install prozilla  is there anyone to help me
[02:55] <Enselic__> Lundn: does your card support that encryption (hardwarewize)=
[02:55] <Enselic__> ?
[02:55] <wols_> micman: only exactly shown errors are good errors
[02:55] <Jowi> JC_Denton_, the gentoo docs are quite good as well: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_XDMCP

[02:55] <Sam234> Why is it that music from amarok plays concurrently with the sounds from neverball however, if I play tuxkart the sound from tuxkart cannot be heard?
[02:55] <Enselic__> Lundn: what is the brand of the card?
[02:55] <wols_> ah you are compiling
[02:56] <micman> ya
[02:56] <Lundn> sek :)
[02:56] <Jordan_U> Sam234, Does tuxkart use OSS?

[02:56] <JC_Denton_> jowi thanks. found this page too which im using http://www.quietearth.us/articles/2006/08/16/Enabling-xdmcp-in-tsclient-for-ubuntu
[02:56] <ubotu> Package prozilla does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[02:57] <eyemean> hi just wondering how many gigs u would dedicate to ubuntu and rest for docs?
[02:57] <Sam234> Jordan_U I don't know but do you think that is the problem?
[02:57] <Jowi> ParanoyaM, It said "name not found". no idea if that is in reference to the workgroup name, the ip address or the subnet.
[02:57] <Jordan_U> Sam234, It would make sense if it were
[02:57] <wols_> micman: dpkg -l |grep ncurse
[02:57] <Jordan_U> Sam234, If it does then install aoss and run: aoss tuxkart
[02:58] <Lundn> Enselic__, dont know >S
[02:58] <Enselic__> Lundn: lspci will tell you
[02:58] <kane77> how can I display specific line in file?
[02:58] <Enselic__> kane77: by what measures? line numbers? content?
[02:58] <Jordan_U> Sam234, the package is called alsa-oss
[02:58] <kane77> Enselic__, line number
[02:58] <ParanoyaM> jowi, so what i should do?
[02:59] <Jowi> ParanoyaM, I don't know how to resolve that. if you didn't find any help in the links that ubotu gave you maybe you can try #samba
[02:59] <INIT_6_> ubuntu install is not creating the hard drive tables right during the install so I can't boot. What is the best way to edit the grub info if I can't even get to the grub screen to edit it. Can I do it when I boot off the cd?
[02:59] <Sam234> Jordan_U Im having the problem with some of my wine games too but the command won't work for them will it?
[02:59] <Lundn> intel corporation pro/wireless 3945abg
[02:59] <Enselic__> kane77: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=397405
[03:00] <Jordan_U> INIT_6_, Yes, it is in /boot/grub/menu.lst ( on whatever drive you mount of course )
[03:00] <Jordan_U> Sam234, Use winecfg and make sure that wine is using alsa
[03:00] <Lundn> Enselic__, intel corporation pro/wireless 3945abg ?D
[03:00] <Lundn> :D
[03:00] <Sam234> Jordan_YOU so should I configure amarok to use alsa or oss?
[03:00] <ParanoyaM> jowi, thank you anyway
[03:01] <dredhammer> ust lost all thumbnails of video files when i updated ffmpeg via svn  how do i get them back
[03:01] <Jordan_U> Sam234, ALSA, use it whenever possible
[03:01] <Sam234> Jordan_U damn pidgin autocorrect lol
[03:01] <Sam234> Jordam_U what is the difference between alsa and oss?
[03:01] <Jordan_U> Sam234, I was wondering about that :)

[03:02] <Jordan_U> Sam234, http://www.linuxhardware.org/article.pl?sid=01/03/06/179255
[03:02] <Sam234> Oh yes I did sorry
[03:03] <iTurtle> Sam234: you said the D word
[03:03] <iTurtle> Welcome, nimbo!
[03:03] <Sam234> aoss tuxkart
[03:03] <Sam234> oops
[03:03] <Enselic__> Lundn: if the network manager can't handle WPA for your card, it can be quite difficult to setup. Refer to this though: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo
[03:05] <Sam234> Jordan_U im still having the problem with my wine games even though they are using alsa.
[03:06] <Frogzoo> iTurtle: you have got to be kidding
[03:06] <Q-FUNK> hi! is there any known cure for the acpi regressions in Feisty?  I have hardware on which acpi worked until edgy but it fails to poweroff since Feisty.
[03:06] <iTurtle> Sam234:Use Cedega for games
[03:06] <iTurtle> ;)
[03:06] <iTurtle> Frogzoo: what do you mean?
[03:06] <Sam234> iTurtle I am but wine is better for 1 or 2 of my games
[03:06] <Jordan_U> Sam234, You might ask in #winehq
[03:06] <iTurtle> Sam2345: oh, ok.
[03:06] <Sam234> I use both
[03:07] <Lundn> Enselic__,  thanks ill give it a shot though :)
[03:07] <Sam234> Jordan_U ok will do
[03:08] <iTurtle> are there any americans here?
[03:08] <Catsceo> yes, why?
[03:09] <INIT_6_> yeah
[03:09] <INIT_6_> I am sure lots
[03:09] <verb3k_> iTurtle, there is a difference between an American and a United States citizen :)
[03:09] <INIT_6_> lol

[03:10] <hideandseek> so no
[03:10] <hideandseek> w
[03:10] <tictoc> the rest of us are working hard on that
[03:10] <hideandseek> when I run crossover and then run steam, it says steam is already running and it wont update
[03:10] <INIT_6_> I wish, I wasn't in US
[03:10] <hideandseek> but only one copy of steam is running
[03:10] <hideandseek> any ideas?
[03:11] <Jordan_U> hideandseek, #crossover
[03:11] <verb3k_> INIT_6_,  so are you ?
[03:11] <Lundn> Enselic__,  now i am connected the icon at the top right disappeared :S
[03:11] <INIT_6_> I am in USA. But I don't want to be.
[03:11] <Enselic__> Lundn: you are connected through WPA?
[03:11] <Lundn> nope
[03:11] <Lundn> just as before
[03:11] <Lundn> but no icon >D

[03:12] <longpig> !steam
[03:12] <Enselic__> Lundn: I have an intel integrated card, and before 7.04... hey what versinodo you run btw?
[03:12] <ubotu> Steam can be found at: http://www.steampowered.com/
[03:12] <Lundn> 7.04

[03:12] <hideandseek> I'm running 6.04
[03:12] <yrth> hello every one:) can anybody help me out blacklisting my lan driver?
[03:12] <Lundn> the icon where i could choose wireless network is gone >S
[03:12] <bonitao> how can i install video drive?
[03:12] <hideandseek> do you think I should upgrade to fiesty?
[03:12] <Commander-Ape> is it possible to see which automatic updates were installed, and downgrade it automatically back?
[03:13] <Strykar> ok, noobish question, i boot off the old cd, change root passwd, edit resolv.conf and update ifconfig and route with the appropriate settings, but only google seems to work at a normal speed, the rest of the sites time out, and i tired opendns servers too, what could be causing this, traceroute times out for a few sites too
[03:13] <Enselic__> Lundn: before 7.04 I had to setup /etc/network/interfaces, but with 7.04 the Networkmanager handles WPA for my card
[03:13] <Enselic__> Lundn: it can't hanlde WPA2 though
[03:13] <Lundn> okidok1, but not that problem anymore
[03:13] <Hojjat> Hi all. This is going to be the first time I'm installing ubunto. I have 7.0.4 and 6.0.6 downloaded. Which one should I install?
[03:13] <hideandseek> 7.04
[03:13] <Enselic__> Hojjat: the newest usually
[03:13] <Strykar> Hojjat, 7.04 of course
[03:13] <Lundn> Enselic__, on the panel the network manager icon disappeared :S
[03:14] <Hojjat> Well I just thought they are both the latest minor versions of their version category.
[03:14] <StatusXxX> How do i make that i can access /var/www with FTP?
[03:14] <Hojjat> May be I'm wrong
[03:14] <Enselic__> Lundn: weird... what does ps -A | grep Ne    give you?
[03:14] <StatusXxX> Like what is the best FTPD
[03:14] <StatusXxX> easiest
[03:14] <Strykar> has anyone had this issue with Ubuntu 7.04?
[03:14] <hideandseek> can you apt-get beryl?
[03:14] <yrth> I need some help blacklisting the lan driver before the kernel updates
[03:14] <Enselic__> !ftpd | StatusXxX

[03:14] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: depends on your needs, there you have a list
[03:14] <StatusXxX> lol
[03:15] <StatusXxX> Enselic__ i wanna be able to share /var/www
[03:15] <hideandseek> !beryl
[03:15] <Lundn> Enselic__,  a long list where network manager is on
[03:15] <ubotu> beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[03:15] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: not through a webserver then?
[03:15] <wickedfool> I have a stupid question for being a newb. I am trying to get into a directory from the terminal window and it keeps telling me that the directory does not exist. I can't tell if it is because it is a long directory or if it has a space in the name I need to do something different
[03:15] <Enselic__> Lundn: do you have many NetworkManager?
[03:15] <Lundn> 2 sek
[03:15] <Enselic__> Lundn: when you run ps -A | grep Ne    that is
[03:15] <neo1> wickedfool: press tab
[03:16] <Lundn> ohh
[03:16] <StatusXxX> Enselic__ i wanna be able to share directorys
[03:16] <wickedfool> when?
[03:16] <StatusXxX> not just my Home
[03:16] <Strykar> kane77, nice
[03:16] <yrth> wickedfool, if there is a space in the name, you need to use the "name name" parenthesis
[03:16] <neo1> wickedfool: i mean type few words and then press tabris
[03:16] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: you can share directories in many ways, FTP might not be what you want
[03:16] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: who do you want should be able to get your files?
[03:16] <kane77> Strykar, browsing songs is now much faster...
[03:16] <Lundn> Enselic__,  there is a NetworkManager and a NetworkManagerD
[03:16] <StatusXxX> Enselic__ anyone
[03:16] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: everyoneonthe internet? those running Windows?
[03:16] <Strykar> kane77, of course, well done
[03:16] <StatusXxX> Yes
[03:17] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: then you should go for a FTP server
[03:17] <StatusXxX> Yes but what FTP server?
[03:17] <wickedfool> sweet
[03:17] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: do you want a super secure one?
[03:17] <Jowi> wickedfool, for dirs with space in name either use quotes or backslash + space. like this: cd "my desktop", cd my\ desktop
[03:17] <StatusXxX> the one i tryed only shared my home
[03:17] <wickedfool> why does it have a \ following the first word
[03:17] <StatusXxX> Enselic__ well.. they are never super secure
[03:17] <yrth> I need some help blacklisting the lan driver before the kernel update
[03:17] <Enselic__> wickedfool: because without it, the shell treats my and desktop as two different directories
[03:18] <wickedfool> thanks
[03:18] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: if you already setup one, why don't you use it?
[03:18] <Jowi> wickedfool, to indicate a space when not using quotes
[03:18] <kane77> Strykar, now only to get ruby on rails configured and I'm done  for today...:)
[03:18] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: you just need to configure it then
[03:18] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: VSFTP is afaik considered the most secure ftp server
[03:18] <StatusXxX> Is it easy to configure?
[03:18] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: I have no idea since you havn't told me which one it is
[03:19] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: but yes it probably is, just read in the documentatino of it
[03:19] <wickedfool> it's been 12 years since I have been on an IRC channel - no idea why I havent been back sooner. Thanks for all the help, I'm sure you will be seeing me more
[03:19] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: typically all you have to do is edit some system file in /etc
[03:19] <Vich> no
[03:19] <Vich> not /etc
[03:19] <StatusXxX> ofc
[03:19] <Enselic__> or whatever...
[03:19] <Vich> lol
[03:19] <Vich> I'm just messing
[03:19] <lipesco> Hello World!
[03:20] <alex__> exit
[03:20] <Vich> but surely for noobs ubuntu is all about the apt-get and the dpkg
[03:20] <Vich> there should be as much auto config as possible
[03:21] <Vich> I think I installed pureftp, and it just added it's own folder somewhere
[03:21] <INIT_6_> Vich, apt-get is nice. I am sick of tracking down dependince
[03:21] <Vich> then it was up and ready
[03:21] <Vich> yeah, I think we all are
[03:21] <Vich> especially when they aren't listed in the documentation
[03:21] <INIT_6_> lol
[03:21] <INIT_6_> yeah,
[03:22] <Commander-Ape> does the automated update system have an log file?
[03:22] <wickedfool> has anyone done much with setting up VOIP?

[03:34] <finalbeta> Can someone help me install a java app please? It can't find the Java VM, but I do have one installed. Other programs work, something is wrong with the path variables

[03:34] <alindeman> Is NTFS write support stable enough to use?
[03:34] <finalbeta> alindeman: yes
[03:34] <StatusXxX> this VSFtpd is not working at all
[03:34] <xtknight> kinda
[03:34] <_gpg_> jrib http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27000/ (is there a way to display the log in english btw ?)
[03:34] <xx_> I started my computer yesterday and got "error 29: disk write error" when choosing ubuntu (feisty) in grub, same thing happened when I chose Windows XP. I tried reinstalling Ubuntu but when i came to the partitioning part it told me it couldn't write to the disc. I put in the windows xp disc and used fixmbr and that way i got xp to start, and deleted the linux partitions, then i was going to...
[03:34] <xx_> ...install ubuntu again but when i try to create the partitions i get the same thing. "Input/output error during write on /dev/hdb ERROR!!!"
[03:34] <jrib> finalbeta: what are you installing?  What does  java -version  return?
[03:35] <StatusXxX> it doesn't even start
[03:35] <xtknight> i wouldnt rely on an ntfs driver though
[03:35] <jrib> _gpg_: put  LANGUAGE=en_US  before your command
[03:35] <pescez> xx try editind grub's entries
[03:35] <finalbeta> jrib: http://paste-it.net/2648#bottom I'm Installing typing master :P
[03:35] <INIT_6_> shit, I know what is wrong. I remember when installing gentoo on this server box. That I had to go in and delete some lines or move them around. becuase grub detects the devices different becuase it can't load my two controllor drivers. now the ? is Does anyone know how in the comand prompt of grub how to show the devices?
[03:36] <Kprofthreat> Hi, guys. I got a 60GB IDE hd I'm using right now as basically limbo storage. Got no operating system, formatted as NTFS (courtesy of Windows) and now I'm trying to open it up in Linux, but it doesn't detect it. Suggestions?
[03:36] <INIT_6_> crap, sorry for saying the S word
[03:36] <finalbeta> jrib: http://www.typingmaster.com/
[03:36] <jrib> finalbeta: you probably need sun's java.  Have you installed sun-java6-jre (or similar)?
[03:36] <wols_> INIT_6_: /boot/grub/device.map
[03:36] <xx_> pescez: how do I do that? Grub isn't even installed anymore, and I deleted the linux partitions
[03:36] <hideandseek> i just ripped a family killing fart
[03:36] <finalbeta> jrib: I have the sun jdk which has an jre in my opt dir, how do I make it use it?
[03:36] <IdleOne> !ohmy | hideandseek
[03:36] <ubotu> hideandseek: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[03:37] <jrib> finalbeta: it's easier if you install it through the repositories

[03:37] <pescez> xx_, does windows work?
[03:37] <finalbeta> jrib: will trye
[03:37] <yrth> guys, I need some help blacklisting the lan driver
[03:37] <xtknight> yrth, did you add it to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist..?
[03:37] <xx_> pescez: Yes, now that I used fixmbr it works fine
[03:38] <jrib> _gpg_: were you able to get it in english for me?
[03:38] <yrth> xtknight, the thing is I ma not quite sure what to add
[03:38] <xtknight> yrth, sudo lshw -class network | grep driver=
[03:38] <_gpg_> jrib still have it in french ..
[03:39] <_gpg_> jrib even if i use LANGUAGE=en_US
[03:39] <pescez> xx_, something similar happened to me b/c grub entries aimed at a wrong addres for disk, i mean (hd0,1) instead of (hd0,5) or (hd0,0) instead of (hd1,0)
[03:39] <n> Is there a problem with the ubuntu servers right now? (I have tried both uk.archive & us.archive) also security seems to be unavailable too.
[03:39] <jrib> _gpg_: you tried:  LANGUAGE=en_US sudo apt-get install qt4-designer   ?
[03:39] <taigeR_> sup
[03:39] <xtknight> what about LANG= ?
[03:39] <pescez> xx_, so check it out if it's the same
[03:40] <_gpg_> jrib yes it's still in french
[03:40] <JC_Denton_> xdmcp works but when I go to logout my machine becomes useless until i hit the powerbutton and force a restart
[03:40] <xx_> pescez: I don't think I have grub anymore though. I think what *might* have caused this was plugging in an external harddrive the day before yesterday maybe that messed something up
[03:40] <jrib> _gpg_: ok, I'll just read it carefully...
[03:40] <finalbeta> jrib: I installed a new java, how do I make it the defauld one again?

[03:42] <finalbeta> jrib: thank you, It's working now
[03:42] <jrib> _gpg_: pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list .  Also, what happens when you try:  sudo apt-get install libsqlite0
[03:42] <Lundn> anyone who successfully have used the daap function in banshee or rthmnbox ?
[03:43] <pescez> xx_, no you shouldn't have it anymore. and yes, i think it's the same kind of trouble i got into. in my case the entries didn't match b/c of an usb hd newly attached that had changed the sdX order
[03:43] <yrth> xtknight, it just returned some info about my wireless... lan is off right now, and I just want to keep it that way.. the thing is, when kernel updates it loads the drivers again and ubuntu won't load
[03:43] <pescez> and so (hd0,0) becme (hd1,0) and so on
[03:44] <n> Is there a problem with the ubuntu servers right now? (I have tried both uk.archive & us.archive) also security seems to be unavailable too.
[03:44] <surviver> hello got little question, i tried to mount - remount my sda4 (its ext3 primary) but he gives errors whole time any ideas i did this : mount -o, rw remount /media/sda4
[03:44] <xtknight> yrth, what does "off" mean?  lan cable unplugged?  ifdown?
[03:44] <_gpg_> jrib http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27003/
[03:45] <pescez> xx_, you can manage it pressing 'e' while grub is showing options or modifying /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:45] <Kprofthreat> Hi, guys. I got a 60GB IDE hd I'm using right now as basically limbo storage. Got no operating system, formatted as NTFS (courtesy of Windows) and now I'm trying to open it up in Linux, but it doesn't detect it. Suggestions?
[03:45] <Hojjat> I only can create on partition on my hard disk. I'm just installing ubunto, and want to make this partition an LVM one
[03:45] <xx_> pescez: okay thanks for the tip
[03:45] <kitfrog> Kprofthreat: what version of ubuntu?
[03:45] <Hojjat> How can I do that, in Ubuntu?
[03:46] <surviver> !mount partition
[03:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mount partition - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:46] <Kprofthreat> kitfrog: Feisty
[03:46] <hideandseek> Is it better to run amd64 feisty or i386?  Like will 32 bit apps work with amd64?
[03:46] <kitfrog> Kprofthreat: wierd. should have been automounted
[03:46] <xtknight> hideandseek, they will, with a bit of work.  i386 is just easier and better for most people
[03:46] <bobbob1016> For anyone interested, I fixed my nautilus crashing problem, it is was a permissions error.  I used "gksudo nautilus /" and navigated to the mount folder, right clicked it, and fixed the permissions, while it wasn't mounted of course.
[03:46] <MEZON> 
[03:46] <kitfrog> Kprofthreat: at least all my NTFS partitions were
[03:46] <hideandseek> xtknight, is it better for newbs to use i386?
[03:46] <Rug> hideandseek: there are some problems with apps like java.
[03:46] <xtknight> hideandseek, generally gains with 64-bit are with math and scientific processing, perhaps huge data sets
[03:46] <surviver> hideandseek, if u use 64 bit like me u ll have hard time with internet i got problems with macromedia or video google and stuff
[03:47] <xtknight> hideandseek, yes it is better for newbs to use i386
[03:47] <INIT_6_> what is the better supported gui in ubuntu? kde, or gnome
[03:47] <yrth> no, xtknight, I didn't install it at all (I found this forum note with directions how to install ubuntu when it hangs on loading the 8139too.ko driver)
[03:47] <hideandseek> ya fuck that I'll just stick to i386.  thanks for the help!
[03:47] <kitfrog> Kprofthreat: have you checked your fstab to see if the drive is listed?
[03:47] <surviver> hello got little question, i tried to mount - remount my sda4 (its ext3 primary) but he gives errors whole time any ideas i did this : mount -o, rw remount /media/sda4
[03:47] <Hojjat> Please?
[03:47] <Kprofthreat> kitfrog: Well, the thing is I connected it after I installed...but I don't think that makes a diff.
[03:47] <xtknight> yrth, so you want to blacklist 8139too.ko?
[03:47] <Kprofthreat> kitfrog: No, let me check now.
[03:48] <xtknight> yrth, (kinda confused here)..
[03:48] <Rug> Is there a problem with the ubuntu servers right now? (I have tried both uk.archive & us.archive) also security seems to be unavailable too.
[03:48] <jrib> _gpg_: join me in #ubuntu-classroom
[03:48] <yrth> xtknight, I know... yes I wan't to blacklist that driver... I think
[03:48] <kitfrog> Kprofthreat: that will be the reason then. you want to add a mount point for it. do you know what the /dev for the partition is?
[03:48] <xtknight> yrth, okay.  the name is "8138too" (you just take out the .ko)
[03:48] <xtknight> 8139too*
[03:49] <xtknight> !blacklist
[03:49] <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 
[03:49] <nhy> does anyone here have an ibm thinkpad?
[03:49] <xtknight> !anyone
[03:49] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[03:49] <xtknight> ive used one but not with linux
[03:49] <yrth> ok, xtknight, thanks, I will try and hope for the best
[03:49] <nhy> kk
[03:50] <Kprofthreat> I found it by label
[03:50] <nhy> I read that if you want to keep the access ibm functionality then you have to take some extra steps when partitioning
[03:50] <Kprofthreat> But it won't open, probably need to go and open it from root
[03:50] <kitfrog> Kprofthreat: have you read this? http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty/Windows#How_to_mount_Windows_partitions_.28NTFS.29_on_boot-up.2C_and_allow_users_read_and_write_access
[03:50] <nhy> but I didn't completely understand what I had to do
[03:50] <Hojjat> Can anyone please help me with LVM?
[03:51] <surviver> hello got little question, i tried to mount - remount my sda4 (its ext3 primary) but he gives errors whole time any ideas i did this : mount -o, rw remount /media/sda4
[03:51] <fabiovalinhos> What's LVM??
[03:51] <nhy> does anyone know any details
[03:51] <Rug> Hojjat: what do you need to know?
[03:51] <Kprofthreat> kitfrog: I read something about how to write to NTFS partitions, but it wasn't that.
[03:51] <Hojjat> lvm = Linux Volume Management
[03:51] <xtknight> logical *
[03:51] <pescez> surviver, try without the , ....
[03:52] <Hojjat> I just want to create my empty space on the disk as an LVM partition
[03:52] <Hojjat> then install Ubuntu on it
[03:52] <Shaftino> Anyone know how I can make Sound Juicer rip in mp3 format please?
[03:52] <Hojjat> Rug, do you know how to?
[03:52] <Rug> Hojjat: use the "alternate" install CD
[03:52] <xtknight> Hojjat,  i dont use lvm but i use raid...
[03:52] <mahtavamatt88> Need some advice: Which combination of "Xgl/AIGLX/Beryl/Compiz" am i best to use on my pc: E6600 2.4Ghz, 4GB DDR2, and an ATI X1950 Pro 256MB-256Bit?
[03:52] <xtknight> Hojjat,  you have the ubuntu alternate cd i assume??
[03:53] <pescez> surviver, btw default behaviour of mount is mounting rw so you don't need that option at all
[03:53] <surviver> pescez, nope but its kind off odd cause did all my partitions like that only this one wont work ^o)
[03:53] <Hojjat> No way to use the standard CD?
[03:53] <xtknight> Hojjat, oh, no there is no way to use the regular CD with lvm.  you must use the alternate
[03:53] <Hojjat> I don't have the "alternative" cd
[03:53] <Rug> Hojjat: not really...  LVM support is built-in to the alternate CD
[03:53] <Rug> Hojjat: d'load it
[03:53] <ifeelinlove> hej:)
[03:53] <pescez> surviver, try fsck it
[03:53] <kitfrog> Kprofthreat: this is the best guide i've come across: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009

[03:54] <Kprofthreat> kitfrog: Thanks, I'm checking them out now.
[03:54] <Hojjat> What if I create the LVM partitions with another tool? Can I then install to them using the regular CD, or do I still need to have the alternative CD?
[03:54] <kitfrog> Kprofthreat: np ;)
[03:54] <pescez> surviver, it would be useful anyway to know what errors come out...
[03:54] <xtknight> Hojjat, using the alternate cd will save you a lot of headache
[03:54] <xtknight> i don't know how to do it, other than by using the alternate
[03:54] <Hojjat> Good. And do we have a graphical installer in alternative?
[03:55] <SinnerG> could it be that ssh listens only on the localhost @ desktop install (how to check btw?)
[03:55] <Hojjat> I'm not a linux guy you know.
[03:55] <xtknight> Hojjat, only text-based at the moment
[03:55] <Hojjat> :(
[03:55] <Rug> Hojjat: you might be able to, but the problem is that the "regular" CD might not have the necessary tools to READ the LVM once you have created it.  The Alternate is the best thing to use.
[03:55] <ifeelinlove> hello

[03:55] <xtknight> Hojjat,  although as long as you're familiar with tab/enter, etc.  it's as easy as the GUI.  just a few more steps here and there

[03:56] <ifeelinlove> help me please
[03:56] <Shaftino> xtknight, What package would I be looking at?
[03:56] <pescez> surviver, check out the first line of that message
[03:56] <Shaftino> xtknight, Any ideas?
[03:56] <Hojjat> I can only create ONE partition now (I have three other primaries) so if I want to have swap, then I have to put both / and /swap on LVA

[03:56] <INIT_6_> I installed the server ubuntu, didn't come with a gui what is fine, Does the normal desktop come with a gui on install?
[03:56] <pescez> surviver, maybe you don't have the mount point on fstab?

[03:57] <Hojjat> kitfrog, yes it did help. Thank you
[03:57] <Rug> Hojjat: you should never use more then 1 Primary, create/use Logical partitions for the rest
[03:57] <nhy> is anyone running ubuntu on an ibm/lenovo t43?
[03:58] <Hojjat> Rug, I have three primaries, because I have three OSs by now!
[03:58] <xtknight> Rug, why no more than one primary?
[03:58] <xtknight> you could do 3 primary, 1 extended, and logical ones underneath that
[03:58] <xtknight> 4 primary max

[03:59] <Hojjat> xtknight, because you would be stock like me. I have three primaries, and now I only can have one more. But linux needs two, I guess (/ and /swap)
[03:59] <xtknight> Hojjat, you can create something called an "extended"
[03:59] <Hojjat> Unless I'm wrong and I can install /swap on the same partition as the / without using LVA

[04:01] <SinnerG> pfff
[04:01] <pescez> surviver, ... the second? nothing like "-XXX unrecognised option" ?

[04:02] <toddy> who can help
[04:02] <toddy> thanks
[04:02] <xtknight> Hojjat, hm. wel you can use a swap file, instead of a swap partition
[04:02] <Hojjat> Rug, can I have the /swap on a logical partition?
[04:02] <xtknight> Hojjat, you dont need a swap partition just to boot.  as far as i know
[04:02] <Pirate_Hunter> what I get when I login is blue screen and this message <Failed to start the X server. It is likely that it is not set properly... I viewed the output and this is what it says <(==) log file "/var/log/Xorg.o.log") - (==) Using config file "etc/XII/xorg.conf". so how can I get my graphics to display again?
[04:02] <surviver> pescez, i can see that it is already mounted so i have to do remount
[04:03] <Hojjat> xtknight, can I put the swap on a logical partition?
[04:03] <xtknight> Hojjat, yes
[04:03] <Vich> violence
[04:03] <Hojjat> Good news. Then I can do some repartitioning and let it go... :)
[04:03] <Rug> xtknight: back in the MS-Dos days you could only have 1 "visible" primary partition on a disk at a time.  (That is how I used to tri-boot OS/2, Win3.11, Dosv6.22) You told fdisk to make the other 2 partition 'hidden'.  WindowsXP still has a tendancy to trash MBR if too many Primary partitions are detected.
[04:03] <toddy> how can i chmod the read-only file?
[04:03] <neol> can anyone go see the pick and tell me what the problem is  < http://www.imagehosting.com/show.php/816973_Screenshot.png.html
[04:04] <surviver> pescez, when i try this  sudo mount -o,rw remount /media/sda5 he gives this : mount: special device remount does not exist
[04:04] <nomike> hi
[04:04] <Hojjat> xtknight,now I'm installing linux with no swap at the moment. I assume I can set the /swap later, right?
[04:04] <Rug> xtknight: so to keep your data safe, 1 primary, with the rest as logical.

[04:04] <toddy> feisty fawn
[04:04] <qaldune> hojjat: i've never tried that, but i think i would never do such thing
[04:05] <xtknight> Hojjat, sure you should be able to
[04:05] <xtknight> Hojjat, swap isn't crucial
[04:05] <Pirate_Hunter> Please someone help me? this morning I followed instructions to increasing my screen resolution and now I keep getting an error that my X server is not set properly, I wish to know how to make it look for the back file of my screnn config
[04:05] <Hojjat> qaldune why?
[04:05] <surviver> pescez, idd
[04:05] <qaldune> anyway, if you've got a reasonable amount of ram that would be ok
[04:05] <xtknight> if you have enough ram..
[04:05] <xtknight> like 128 or 256
[04:05] <pescez> surviver, why don't you try just sudo mount -o remount /media/sda4
[04:05] <neol> wols_: thats what i'm asking what should i do in < '/etc/apt/sources.list' > file
[04:05] <Rug> Can somebody please confirm/deny security.ubuntu.com & uk.archive.ubuntu.com are working??
[04:06] <wols_> Pirate_Hunter: paste your xorg.log from /var/log
[04:06] <Hojjat> Now only one (MAJOR) problem remains
[04:06] <surviver> pescez, try that to but on the first one it worked the sda5 .. do them both :) so normally 5 works :D
[04:06] <wols_> neol: it doesn't tell you about your sources.list. it tells you other things. read the mssage
[04:06] <Hojjat> I don't want Ubuntu to touch my MBR. I want GRUB to be installed on the partition not on the MBR
[04:06] <Hojjat> How do I do that?
[04:06] <xtknight> Hojjat, alternate cd will let you do that :P
[04:06] <bobbob1016> Pirate_Hunter, I repeat, try going into recovery mode, and typing "sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf-backup"  then do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[04:06] <Hojjat> pity!
[04:06] <Pirate_Hunter> wols_: I boot on text mode I cnat paste anything I dont know how to sue txt mode
[04:06] <Hojjat> Then why did I download the regular one!!
[04:07] <xtknight> Hojjat, but why not the mbr?
[04:07] <Rug> xtknight: If he had just listened to us in the first place.
[04:07] <Hojjat> Because I want to use my own boot loader for my other OSs
[04:07] <wigfreitz> how do I copy a whole directory?
[04:07] <neol> wols_: when i use command < sudo apt-get install -f > it download something sun & java which is of 30 MB ??
[04:07] <xtknight> wigfreitz, cp -a
[04:07] <qaldune> wigfreitz: cp -r *
[04:07] <bobbob1016> Pirate_Hunter, it sounds like it is a your xorg.conf is messed up, the directions I gave you will help get it working again.
[04:07] <surviver> pescez, now i got this message : [mntent] : warning: no final newline at the end of /etc/fstab
[04:07] <wols_> Pirate_Hunter: pastewithoutx is you can install gpm, which gives you familiar mouse functionality from the console ; or upload a file to http://pastebin.ca/upload.php; or: apt-get install w3m ; w3m http://channels.debian.net/paste ; hit enter on the Big Box, it will open /usr/bin/editor where you can insert the file, then save ; then hit enter on the submit button in w3m, or
[04:07] <wols_>  the "scren" utility also provides keybtoard driven copy/paste
[04:08] <Hojjat> Rug, I'm going to listen to you now, really. I am even reconsidering about my installing Ubuntu. I'm not a linux guy, and just wanted something to learn more about linux
[04:08] <neol> wols_: should i download that ??
[04:08] <Hojjat> Ubuntu might not be a good option though
[04:08] <Firebird> had Ubuntu problems? :)
[04:08] <surviver> pescez, LOL thx worked did this:
[04:08] <wols_> neol: did you want to install java before?
[04:08] <xtknight> only other distro i know of that's about as easy is maybe SUSE or fedora, but honestly i think ubuntu is pretty easy once you get the hang of it
[04:08] <xtknight> you'll probably be able to find more help with ubuntu
[04:08] <qaldune> hojjat: honestly, ubuntu is the best option for linux newcomers
[04:08] <surviver> pescez, sudo mount -o,remount rw /media/...
[04:09] <surviver> pescez, thx for help :)
[04:09] <Hojjat> qaldune, I've heared that too
[04:09] <pescez> surviver, so what was all about? sudo?
[04:09] <Pirate_Hunter> wols_ all i get in my ubuntu is a black screen it has disbaled the X serevr meaning no KDE graphical interface it allows me to work in command mode which Im not ready at the momente
[04:09] <Hojjat> People have advised me to choose either Ubunto or SuSE
[04:09] <surviver> pescez, no about i think remount must be direct behind , sign and rw must be at the end :D
[04:09] <qaldune> hojjat: i've used mandrake, suse, debian and ubuntu, and for desktop usage, i think ubuntu is far better from the rest
[04:09] <Hojjat> And I have one very important inclusion criteria: I need something to install easily, with least partitioning changes and with no touch to the MBR
[04:10] <wols_> Pirate_Hunter: then that do you suggest should we do to help you?
[04:10] <neol> wols_: i just wanted to installl the codecs for playing files.... so i checked " restricted formats or something " in add/remove programs,  this was written in the site when i asked u to how to install codecs for playing avi files,   do u remember ??
[04:10] <bobbob1016> Pirate_Hunter, if you don't want to use the command line, there aren't to many options
[04:10] <Rug> Hojjat: Ubuntu is an excellent option...  but you already have a "full-plate"  why not try the Live-CD first to get a feel for the apps available.  Once you know the apps that you want, then make teh switch.  I use VMWare for any Windows or Mac hacking that I need to do.
[04:10] <wols_> neol: it's usually not a bad thing to install java
[04:10] <pescez> surviver, ok ok but i really can't figure out why you want to keep that comma... :D
[04:10] <Hojjat> Rug, I'm thinking of... removing one of my OSs now!
[04:10] <Hojjat> So I can have two partitions :D
[04:10] <Rug> Hojjat: nuke 'em all!
[04:10] <neol> wols_: lol... ok i am installing it then
[04:10] <Firebird> only 2? ;)
[04:11] <surviver> pescez, hehe saw this in the man. file of it :D
[04:11] <Hojjat> Firebird, I have two more which I cannot delete by any means!
[04:11] <Firebird> oh, I see
[04:11] <raf256_> how to edit /etc/passwd to have no password?
[04:11] <xtknight> Rug, eh, they have a vmware for mac?
[04:11] <wols_> raf256_: empty password or no password?
[04:11] <Rug> Hojjat: I have been using Linux exclusively on my workstations for 4 years now.  The only thing I miss are the games.
[04:11] <wols_> raf256_: man 5 passwd
[04:11] <Hojjat> OK. I made my mind. I am going to loose one of those Microsoft craps
[04:11] <xtknight> well i know of Parallels but i love vmware
[04:11] <raf256_> wols_: prefferably empty one.
[04:12] <qaldune> rug: have you tried nexuiz or tremulous? :)
[04:12] <Firebird> yeah Rug, I play a few in linux and the rest... don't have a choice :s
[04:12] <Hojjat> Rug, I have my special needs, and I don't think I'm going to use Linux that much
[04:12] <Rug> xtknight: I am on a PC using a VMWare'd image of Tiger
[04:12] <wols_> raf256_: so it will be impossibly to log in into that account? man 5 passwd
[04:12] <pescez> surviver, ah i found it but i think it was related to something like mount -o rw,remount ecc...
[04:12] <raf256_> wols_: no, so anyone can log into it
[04:12] <Hojjat> And I don't play games so often (and even if I do, I can do them on my laptop :D)
[04:12] <raf256_> wols_: http://sial.org/pbot/25758
[04:12] <wols_> Hojjat: do you have mor than one MS OS? why?
[04:12] <surviver> pescez, possible lol :D
[04:12] <pescez> surviver, anyway glad it worked ;)
[04:12] <tyrus40be> HELP! I have troubles installing Ubuntu. After the first CD-bootup-menu I get a unsupported video-modus, even tried all the different vga-settings...
[04:12] <Rug> Hojjat: why not use VMWare then?
[04:12] <Hojjat> wols_ I do. for many reasons
[04:13] <surviver> pescez, thx :D gtg bb
[04:13] <wols_> Hojjat: which ones?
[04:13] <Hojjat> Rug, I used it, and then I found I really want to install Linux
[04:13] <wols_> raf256_: as I said: man 5 passwd
[04:13] <Hojjat> wols_ all microsoft craps
 well I need to pop in in a bit cause at the moment im on mirc and I need a second pc because this one is the one that dual boots XP with Ubuntu so I cna't do much is I have to follow those instruction
[04:13] <Hojjat> XP, ME, Server 2003
[04:13] <xtknight> my boot config is:  Windows xp, ubuntu (inside ubuntu i have VMware of XP-64 for work).  i use the windows xp primary boot for games
[04:13] <wols_> Hojjat: that is no argument
[04:13] <xtknight> 2 OSes
[04:13] <xtknight> and some virtual OSes
[04:13] <raf256_> wols_: I followed man and it still doesnt work here.
[04:13] <bobbob1016> Pirate_Hunter, you can write the directions down
[04:13] <wols_> raf256_: what did you do?
[04:14] <Rug> Hojjat: so install Linux as teh host OS, and keep everything else as guest VMWare images.
[04:14] <supremesonic> xtknight, ever heard of enemy territory ? :D
[04:14] <Hojjat> xtknight, that is a good config.. I might use it in future
[04:14] <xtknight> supremesonic, are you joking?  i played it for like three years :)
[04:14] <raf256_> wols_: exacly as written in http://sial.org/pbot/25758  I cleared password field
[04:14] <xtknight> Hojjat, what do you use the 2+ MS OSes for?
[04:14] <supremesonic> xtknight, why do you need xp then ? :D
[04:14] <xtknight> if it's anything but games, nuke them
[04:15] <Rug> Is there a problem with the ubuntu servers right now? (I have tried both uk.archive & us.archive) also security seems to be unavailable too.
[04:15] <xtknight> supremesonic, whenever my friend can coerce me into playing supreme commander
[04:15] <Hojjat> xtknight, I'm not a computer technician, but I have responsibilities in a small network
[04:15] <Hojjat> So I need to test some programs on different OSs before I deploy them, etc
[04:15] <wols_> raf256_: so you want a root account everyone can use?
[04:15] <Pirate_Hunter> bobbob1016 but i cant implement them as I need to boot to ubuntu and I was told to do is download soemthing that allows me to paste what is in my xorg.conf and paste it in paste bin thats all
[04:15] <raf256_> wols_: yes
[04:15] <xtknight> Hojjat, VMware is like..THE tool for that; )
[04:15] <wols_> raf256_: I won't help you there
[04:15] <supremesonic> xtknight try run it over newest version of wine and see what happens
[04:15] <xtknight> Hojjat, that's exactly what it's for.  software dev, testing, and delpoyment really
[04:15] <qaldune> rug: i think it's unavailable for everywhere. spanish servers aren't supporting security right now either
[04:15] <Hojjat> xtknight, that is just why I'm going to delete one of them now
[04:15] <tyrus40be> HELP! After the 1e CD-bootup-menu I get "unsupported video-modus"...
[04:16] <xtknight> Hojjat, vmware server is free
[04:16] <Hojjat> I have it running :D
[04:16] <tyrus40be> Can anyone help me out here?
[04:16] <xtknight> supremesonic, true.  i may very well.  ut2004 ran without too much trouble too, although there was a native, i was too drunk and lazy to install the native and to my surprise ut2004 wine worked ;p
[04:16] <Hojjat> With a pair of 512 RAMs, do I need a swap of 1GB or 2?
[04:17] <xtknight> Hojjat, 1 is probably enouhg
[04:17] <xtknight> i use 6, but im crazy
[04:17] <Hojjat> 1024, done
[04:17] <Firebird> as much as you have RAM... at most :)
[04:17] <bobbob1016> Pirate_Hunter, this you don't have to download anything for.  It does require knowing what settings are safe though, like what card you have, and the resolution.  I'm looking for directions now.
[04:17] <tyrus40be> Can anyone help me please? Can't get pasted the first bootable-CD setup-menu.
[04:17] <Hojjat> xtknight, ext3, right?
[04:17] <xtknight> Hojjat, for swap?  no, i think it's some proprietary linuxswap
[04:17] <supremesonic> xtknight, well I think ut2004 is boring :) but I play wow unproblemfully under wine. Only thing theres problem with is when I try change configuration about video like less great terrain, then it crashes.
[04:18] <xtknight> Hojjat, well if you're doing a swap file, yes, place it on a Linux type partition, e.g. ext3, XFS, reiserfs
[04:18] <bobbob1016> Pirate_Hunter, what type of video card do you have, ATI, Nvidia, or Intel?
[04:18] <raf256_> so noone knows how to edit /etc/passwd to have an empty (anyone can log in) root password?
[04:18] <neol> wols_: problem is solved... thanks :)
[04:18] <Rug> qaldune: Thanks for your reply...
[04:18] <Hojjat> I'm not doing a swap "file". I'm creating a partition for it
[04:18] <xtknight> Hojjat, okay, then there is a special linux swap type partition you must make
[04:18] <wols_> Hojjat: at 1GGB RAM, you will rarely if ever needed
[04:18] <wols_> need it
[04:19] <Rug> Hojjat: Did you know that GRUB will allow you to boot your other OS's?
[04:19] <tyrus40be> Can anyone help me please? Can't get pasted the first setup-menu!
[04:19] <supremesonic> lol I have 3gigabyte swap drive on this laptop
[04:19] <Firebird> raf, isn't it an option to be able to login without pw in the login configuration somewhere? (newbie myself)
[04:19] <Firebird> but I thought I saw something like that
[04:19] <Pirate_Hunter> bobbob1016 thanx from windows XP I cna find my graphics card etc so yeah i'll wait, if it is of any help when I changed resoltuion to X i86 which I know is what caused the problem it create a backup of my original resolution settings I just dont know how to make it read that
[04:19] <Hojjat> wols_ I decided to be a little conservative in this case :D
[04:19] <Rug> supremesonic: that is different do you hibernate/suspend?
[04:19] <neol> wols_: which player give better sound quality  among audacious/bmpx/xmms/amarok... got to install one now.  which one to select ??
[04:19] <yondie> #myoss
[04:19] <Firebird> hm, it's automatic login, not sure if that's what you're looking for :)
[04:20] <Rug> neol: use Amarok, it's the best
[04:20] <Hojjat> and for the root partition... what do you suggest?
[04:20] <Hojjat> ext3? reiserfs? or FAT32 so I can access it from windows?
[04:20] <supremesonic> rug, I normally hibernate all the time. But recently it just going blackscreen instead of hibernating, atm im too lazy to find out of the problem
[04:20] <qaldune> neol: it doesn't depend on the player it depends on the media engine
[04:20] <yondie> supremesonic, check around power management
[04:20] <yondie> it must be somewhere around there
[04:20] <neol> ok then which media engine to install qaldune
[04:21] <bobbob1016> Pirate_Hunter, I was asking what card you have.  Waiting won't fix your ubuntu, if you have an Nvidia card, I have a video that will show you how to fix it.  If you are 100% sure there is a backup, you can fix this with two or three simple commands.
[04:21] <Rug> Hojjat: ext3 for the / but create a "common" FAT32 partition so you can share data
[04:21] <yondie> neol,  xmms /amarok /bmpx are just the front end
[04:21] <supremesonic> yondie, I belive I did, but im just gonna try again
[04:21] <qaldune> i think gstreamer is the most uptodate nowadays, anyway it's probably already installed
[04:21] <Hojjat> Rug, done! :)
[04:21] <Hojjat> (I had a common FAT32)
[04:21] <supremesonic> yondie, yes when lid is push it should hibernate
[04:21] <neol> ok tell me which one u guys are suggesting ??
[04:22] <Pirate_Hunter> bobbob1016 Im a 100% sure there is a backup somewheer and I dont use Nvidia on this comp it is all default hardware from the manufaturer
[04:22] <walck> lo all
[04:22] <supremesonic> yondie, im just gonna try hibernate and see what happens in my syslog
[04:22] <Lundn> how do i fix error> C compiler cannot create exec
[04:22] <Hojjat> Rug, something else. I recently searched for weather NTFS-write is enabled in linux, and have noticed a project is about that.
[04:22] <Hojjat> Does Ubuntu support NTFS writing?
[04:22] <Firebird> ntfs-3g, it's pretty decent Hojjat
[04:22] <neol> Hojjat: no
[04:22] <yondie> Hojjat, nope
[04:22] <yondie> it`s fuser ntfs-3g
[04:22] <Hojjat> Ok. I will take that as a "no"
[04:22] <Hojjat> :)
[04:22] <Rug> hehe
[04:22] <tyrus40be> Can anyone help me with first installation of Ubuntu?
[04:23] <Firebird> take it as a... it's easy to install software that allows it
[04:23] <neol> how do i mount fat32 partition in only read mode ??
[04:23] <walck> anyone here experienced with SD card adapters in linux? got an internal one in the laptop that shows up in hardware information, but not as a device.
[04:23] <qaldune> hojjat: there's experimental linux support for ntfs writing
[04:23] <Rug> neol: edit your /etc/fstab
[04:23] <pragma_> It's still experimental?
[04:23] <pragma_> It's been 4 years.
[04:23] <sogo> gr
[04:23] <neol> Rug: from rw to ro ... right ???
[04:23] <Rug> pragma_: welcome to FOSS
[04:24] <Rug> neol: yupp
[04:24] <Firebird> yes, but the started again from scratch... ntfs-3g is more recent than that
[04:24] <Firebird> they*
[04:24] <neol> Rug: got u
[04:24] <qaldune> pragma: is it stable?
[04:24] <Hojjat> All right. I have no other quetsions. I think I know the process now, and the only thing I need is to get the alternative CD so I can install GRUB on the partition
[04:24] <Hojjat> Can you guide me to a page where the installation of GRUB on the partition (not the MBR) with alternative is explained
[04:24] <Rug> neol: if you are just mounting from the command-line, then man mount for options
[04:24] <supremesonic> hmm
[04:24] <Hojjat> please?
[04:24] <supremesonic> now it worked
[04:25] <Hojjat> Rug?
[04:25] <Rug> Hojjat: no sorry I can't help
[04:25] <neol> ok i am installing amarok and xmms........ now tell me which movie player should i install totem/mplayer/kaffiene/xine player .... which one
[04:25] <Firebird> qaldune: I don't suggest mounting your windows partition with it just to be safe. But I use it as my shared partition without problems.
[04:25] <Hojjat> xtknight?
[04:25] <Rug> neol: I like the output from xine the best
[04:26] <qaldune> firebird: don't have any need of mounting any windows partition. thanks anyway
[04:26] <Pirate_Hunter> bobbob1016: are you there? have you found it
[04:26] <bobbob1016> Pirate_Hunter, some default setups have nvidia cards.  If you are sure there is a backup, go into the text mode and type "cd /etc/X11/" then type "ls"  it will list all the files there.  If you see something like "xorg.conf-backup" or "-old" or "-(daymonthyear)" type "sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf-broken" then "sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf-(backup or old or daymonthyear, whichever) /etc/X11/xorg.conf"  then
[04:26] <bobbob1016> reboot, type "sudo reboot"  That should restore the working xorg
[04:26] <Hojjat> please?
[04:26] <supremesonic> yondie, now it work weird. It didn't work yestertoday
[04:26] <yondie> supremesonic, dunno  lol
[04:26] <neol> will xine play scratched dvds and vcds in little smooth way Rug
[04:27] <pure> merhaba
[04:27] <supremesonic> yondie, im just happy it works :)
[04:27] <neol> and yes mplayer also has pretty good skins i guess :)
 Pirate_Hunter, some default setups have nvidia cards.  If you are sure there is a backup, go into the text mode and type "cd /etc/X11/" then type "ls"  it will list all the files there.

[04:27] <G4lv4tr0n> Hi what kernel should i use on a dual core amd 64
[04:27] <Pirate_Hunter> oops
[04:27] <Rug> neol: if the disk is scratched then the software you use to read it is pointless.
[04:27] <Pirate_Hunter> sory
[04:28] <Rug> G4lv4tr0n: generic is finr
[04:28] <Rug> G4lv4tr0n: generic is fine
[04:28] <neol> Rug: in windows xing player plays scratched cds to some extent, and i'm using it already :)
[04:28] <yondie> G4lv4tr0n, most kernel now support smp by default
[04:28] <bobbob1016> Pirate_Hunter, the only reason I was asking if you had an nvidia card was that was what the I found was for
[04:28] <Hojjat> Anyone knowing how I can use alternative CD to install linux with no bootloader?
[04:28] <Pirate_Hunter> bobbob1016 I will tyr that but I dont know that name of the actual backup but I'll try that, what was the second way you were thinking off?
[04:28] <neol> ok guys done i'm installing xmms... amarok... and xine player.... thanks ;)
[04:29] <Rug> neol: if the disk is scratched then it is upto the hardware (your DVD/CD drive) to overcome them.
[04:29] <bobbob1016> Pirate_Hunter, the backup should be listed when you type "ls" it will show a list of files, the backup should be obvious
[04:29] <G4lv4tr0n> Im having trouble install in nvidia amd64 100.14.11 says a problem with nvidia kernel version
[04:29] <neol> which other softwares do u suggest me to install now ??? :)
[04:30] <Hojjat> I think I'm going to ask this on the forums. Thank you all. You really helped much :)
[04:30] <Rug> G4lv4tr0n: why are you using AMD64?
[04:30] <Pirate_Hunter> kk will do that will print what Ive got from you hopefully you'll still be on when I log back in if things go wrong as Im only having acces to one PC and this is the one :-(
[04:30] <chrisbo86> hey
[04:30] <qaldune> rug: why not?
[04:31] <neol> qaldune: sometimes it tough to install packages on 64 bit that is why
[04:31] <GhentK> Hi. The computer I'm trying to install Ubuntu to has 512 MB RAM. Can anyone tell me what a reasonable amount of time for partitioning a 55.9 GB HDD to ext2 is?
[04:31] <Pirate_Hunter> Im gone see you in a bit
[04:31] <G4lv4tr0n> Im using generic kenel, on x86_64 GNU/Linux and cpu is dual core amd 64
[04:31] <Firebird> tyrus40be: that unsupported video mode, it's something displayed by your monitor OSD? not by ubuntu?
[04:32] <aldo> ciao a tutti !
[04:32] <bobbob1016> Pirate_Hunter, the other way is similar, except you are making a new xorg.conf.  Here is the video that shows how to do it for an nvidia, you just have to change it where ever it shows something with nvidia to match your card.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QsP8GDTpno  that is using Mephis, but the actual setup process is the same, just not where it says Mephis.
[04:32] <neol> G4lv4tr0n: me too
[04:32] <Rug> 1: does he have 4GB of RAM or more 2: what is he using that uses the 64-bit address space 3:Is he aware of all the "problems" that workstation apps have with AMD64 (flash, java, etc..)

[04:34] <neol> qaldune: how much of ram do u have ??
[04:34] <INIT_6_> is it a bad idea to install samba while kde is installing. They shouldn't share anything. Or should I just wait?
[04:34] <tarzeau> raf256_: you got deported into #ubuntu as well? :)
[04:34] <chrisbo86> does anybody know an icq client with a visible/invisible function that actually works?
[04:34] <Rug> qaldune: server-side if you have the ram and need, 64-bit is perfect, but IMHO it's marketing on the desktop.  I am running 2 dual-core Opteron 270's on my workstation and have not needed the extra addy space.
[04:34] <tarzeau> does anyone use teamspeak?
[04:34] <raf256_> tarzeau: deported?
[04:35] <tarzeau> raf256_: to exile
[04:35] <Rug> qaldune: cool, glad to hear that it worked for you.  That is awesome.  I have heard more horror stories that it didn't.
[04:35] <raf256_> tarzeau: from?
[04:35] <GhentK> Anyone has an answer to my question?
[04:35] <tarzeau> raf256_: #debian
[04:35] <pure> hihihi
[04:35] <raf256_> tarzeau: debian is a bit geeky
[04:35] <neol> if ur using a lesser ram then their is no speed difference between ubuntu 32 bit and 64 bit :)
[04:35] <tarzeau> raf256_: no, but it has a nazi
[04:35] <Dr_willis> tarzeau,  ive used it befor.
[04:35] <tomd123> #debian
[04:35] <G4lv4tr0n> Has anyone been able to install the latest nvidia driver 100.14.11 on amd64
[04:36] <tarzeau> G4lv4tr0n: yes
[04:36] <qaldune> rug, neol: it's not only about extra addressing space. that's just one advantage about x86_64, there are some worth optimitization on software compiled against AMD64. wouldn't you used software compiled for i686 if you had the chance instead of using the same compiled for i386?
[04:37] <qaldune> s/used/use
[04:37] <G4lv4tr0n> Tarzeau can you print output uname -a please

[04:40] <G4lv4tr0n> Id like to get another make it sli
[04:40] <tarzeau> RivaeAerya: that's why GNUstep is so dark
[04:40] <napkin> hi there!  i followed someone's recommendation and installed a few packages from gutsy in my feisty installation in an attempt to support my (very new) intel video card.  those packages are causing problems.  how do i re-install them from the feisty repo?
[04:40] <tarzeau> RivaeAerya: it's meant for professional people. with calibrated displays
[04:41] <RivaeAerya> tarzeau: mplayer doesn't have the problem. It's Totem. but how do i fix it?
[04:42] <teethdood> RivaeAerya, go to Preferences/Display
[04:43] <G4lv4tr0n> Tarzeau can you post up the link again pls about 21.15 im using a j2me irc client, doesnt buffer a lot

[04:47] <ffm> Is there any TrueCrypt-like app for linux with a GUI?
[04:47] <ferronica> hi all
[04:48] <Hojjat> Excuse me for being a dummy, friends, but I can't figure how to get the alternative CD from here: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[04:48] <neol> wols_: i have a problem with xmms preferences tab look at the screenshot < http://www.imagehosting.com/show.php/817105_Screenshot1.png.html >
[04:48] <Firebird> ffm: truecrypt itself is available for Ubuntu on their site, but I don't know if a gui is included...
[04:48] <tyrus40be> LCD gives:"VIDEO MODE NOT SUPPORTED" after Ubuntu-CD-boot-menu ! Can anyone help me out here?
[04:48] <dognews> I just installed the package "latex-beamer" via Adept and wondered if it's descripition might be a bit wrong - it says: "Miniature Wiki for Apache ..."
[04:48] <ffm> Firebird, no gui
[04:49] <Bob_le_Pointu> Hojjat: "heck here if you need the alternate desktop CD. This CD does not include the Live CD, instead it uses a text-based installer."
[04:49] <neol> ferronica: hi
[04:49] <ferronica> neol: hi
[04:49] <Bob_le_Pointu> Check the checkbox on bottom.
[04:49] <regjava> How can i change the size of icons in Ubuntu?
[04:49] <regjava> icons on the desktop?
[04:49] <Rug> Hojjat: are you after Feisty or Edgy?
[04:49] <neol> Bob_le_Pointu: what the difference in alternate cd ??
[04:49] <c_lisp> when ubuntu buts up nm-applet loads and says its trying to find a ip address when I already have one and connected whys that?
[04:49] <c_lisp> feisty
[04:49] <ferronica> neol: can you help me regarding AWN ???
[04:49] <Hojjat> Feisty
[04:50] <neol> ferronica: no idea.. what AWN ?
[04:50] <Bob_le_Pointu> neol: It's not a live CD, you can't try Ubuntu without install.
[04:50] <ferronica> neol: okay
[04:50] <DarthShrine> ferronica, What's the trouble?
[04:50] <Hojjat> Rug, feisty
[04:50] <neol> Rug: look at this pick and see what the problem with xmms < http://www.imagehosting.com/show.php/817105_Screenshot1.png.html >
[04:50] <Rug> Hojjat: try o2kewl.net I can't remember if I put Feisty on there yet or not
[04:51] <dognews> regjava: Ctrl + 2; "kcontrol"; search for "Icons"; Click on "Acvanced"
[04:51] <neol> Bob_le_Pointu: got u
[04:51] <Hojjat> Bob_le_Pointu, I didn't understand what you said
[04:51] <Rug> neol: I am using CLI only right now (I am in the middle of a re-install)  I can view anything
[04:51] <ferronica> DarthShrine: there is workspace icon after AWN updated , i wanna to remove that workspace
[04:51] <Bob_le_Pointu> Hojjat: You want to download the alternate CD. You're on the right page, but you need to check a checkbox.
[04:51] <neol> Rug: holy shit... how much time will that take ??
[04:51] <Bob_le_Pointu> Hojjat: Look just under "Start Download".
[04:51] <Hojjat> Aha!
[04:52] <Rug> neol: for a full-reinstall?
[04:52] <ant-> !alternate
[04:52] <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
[04:52] <DarthShrine> ferronica, A workspace switcher?
[04:52] <ferronica> DarthShrine: yes
[04:52] <DarthShrine> ferronica, Remove it in the "Configure applets" screen
[04:52] <ant-> its a text based install
[04:52] <neol> Rug: i mean when will u be back on graphical mode ?
[04:52] <ferronica> DarthShrine: but i am already using BERYL
[04:52] <DarthShrine> ferronica, So?
[04:52] <Hojjat> Rug, you didn't put fesity on that server. I now know how to get it elsewhere though. Thank you
[04:52] <ferronica> DarthShrine: I tried but didnt found option for it.
[04:53] <Rug> neol: depends on when the servers are back up.  Figures that they would die on me half-way through my install.
[04:53] <Rug> Hojjat: ok sorry
[04:53] <G4lv4tr0n> Tarz should i use the nvidia driver that is at that link ?
[04:53] <Hojjat> Rug, no problem
[04:53] <DarthShrine> ferronica, Run `avant-applets` and look for "Workspace switcher" in that.
[04:53] <ferronica> DarthShrine: okay
[04:53] <drm> hi
[04:54] <bluefox83> where are the stratup scripts for gnome located?

[04:54] <c_lisp> anybody having problems with nm-applet
[04:54] <ferronica> DarthShrine: thanx it worked
[04:55] <jhasse> Where can i define which font to use for "Sans" ?
[04:55] <ferronica> DarthShrine: one more thing GNOME-DOCK and CAIRO-DOCK are same ?????
[04:55] <Paddy_EIRE> why call yourself drm
[04:55] <qaldune> jhase: verdana or arial are examples of sans fonts
[04:56] <drm> ^^;; my nick name is Dr. Mischief
[04:56] <Paddy_EIRE> ah
[04:56] <DarthShrine> ferronica, Essentially, yes.
[04:56] <jhasse> qaldune: yes, but ubuntu does use "DejaVu Sans" for "Sans". I want to change this
[04:56] <Gnea> bluefox83: well, X starts up first and loads gnome from there in what's called an "X Session", iirc it's in /usr/share/xsesssions or something similar
[04:57] <ferronica> DarthShrine: oh ok i thought both are different GNOME-DOCK and CAIRO-DOCK
[04:57] <just2cool> Hi everybody,i'm using gentoo
[04:58] <Gnea> just2cool: and?
[04:58] <qaldune> i've seen people having in their desktops something like the OS X desktop application dock, what's the name of that package for ubuntu?
[04:58] <drm> i'm not expert to use linux.
[04:58] <yondie> just2cool,  and your point is
[04:58] <yondie> just2cool, welcome to the channel
[04:58] <just2cool> i can't run rt73 driver
[04:58] <DarthShrine> ferronica, Gnome-dock is a continuation of Cairo-dock, I think.
[04:58] <G4lv4tr0n> Are you sure this kernel is stable the package name ends in ROFL ;)
[04:58] <Gnea> just2cool: you'll have to ask in #Gentoo
[04:58] <Paddy_EIRE> qaldune, I dont think that there is a stable dock like that in the ubuntu repos
[04:59] <Paddy_EIRE> qaldune, plus they are guite resource heavy
[04:59] <ferronica> DarthShrine: i am using leopard-icon everything is okay, but COMPUTER and HOME FOLDER  icons i want change  is that possible ??
[04:59] <DarthShrine> ferronica, Where do you want to change them?
[05:00] <Oni-Dracula> good morrow everybody! I have an issue with the fglrx drivers hard crashing the kernel when X starts and unfortunately my use of this computer hinges on it being able to use proper dirvers

[05:03] <raymondjtoth> you know hear from fan
[05:03] <raymondjtoth> gnea this one
[05:03] <TeraDyne> Gnea, he said the fglrx drivers were "crashing his kernel when x starts".
[05:03] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, What be the problem?
[05:03] <TeraDyne> That usually means he's installed them.
[05:03] <raymondjtoth> gnea this one CPU temperature, fan speeds and voltages (lm-sensors)
[05:04] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: ah ok, did you run sensors-detect yet?
[05:04] <raymondjtoth> gnea i it installed now need to make this
[05:04] <raymondjtoth> Create file called mkdev.sh, and paste in the following
[05:04] <erUSUL> raymondjtoth: mkdev.sh is no longer necessary on linux udev should have created the apropiate dev files on boot

[05:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lm-sensors - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:05] <erUSUL> !sensors
[05:05] <ubotu> You might find something useful at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto
[05:05] <Oni-Dracula> Gnea, it's ok, you seem like you don't have the knowledge i need anyway
[05:05] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, You just tried reconfiguring your xorg for now? See if you can get it up an runnig?
[05:05] <raymondjtoth> gnea not yet still setitng it up like sit says to need to make a Create file called mkdev.sh, and paste in the following
[05:05] <raymondjtoth> site says to
[05:05] <raymondjtoth> gnea
[05:06] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: well, forget the site and just run sensors-detect
[05:06] <raymondjtoth> gnea were did it go to
[05:06] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: what?
[05:06] <raymondjtoth> the sensor
[05:06] <Pirate_Hunter> Shaftino: how cna I do that?
[05:06] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, run this 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg' and follow instructions
[05:06] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: look - what website are you reading this from?
[05:07] <raymondjtoth> gnea this one http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#Firewall
[05:07] <Pirate_Hunter> Shaftino: yeh I think thats the command type I was using but what do I configure to, wow you are hitting the nail right on the head...
[05:07] <xpoint> !beryl
[05:07] <ubotu> beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[05:08] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: are you sure it's not this one? http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_detect_CPU_temperature.2C_fan_speeds_and_voltages_.28lm-sensors.29
[05:08] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Just pick what matches your setup, its not really complicated
[05:08] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: ok, i see what you're saying now - you need to open a text editor and paste the script into it
[05:08] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Read the instructions, then once you done that its easy to just add new resolutions etc...
[05:08] <Pirate_Hunter> Shaftino: lol you make it sound easy if I knew what matched my setup, I dont even know my graphics card
[05:09] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Do you know the brand?
[05:09] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Intel/Nvidia/Ati?
[05:09] <Pirate_Hunter> Shaftino: yeha its a plia Sis intel
[05:09] <Pirate_Hunter> plain
[05:09] <Gnea> Intel and SiS are 2 different chipset manufacturers.
[05:10] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, What Gnea says is right,
[05:10] <INIT_6_> Does anyone know of a way to setup software raid in the gui?
[05:10] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, You under windows now? If so check in devices manager, usually find out exactly in there
[05:10] <raymondjtoth>  gnea that it
[05:10] <raymondjtoth> how i make what asking for on it
[05:10] <Pirate_Hunter> Shaftino: it is a sis
[05:10] <raymondjtoth> gnea
[05:11] <raymondjtoth> gnea still with me just making sure
[05:11] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: do you know how to use vi, gedit or nano?
[05:11] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: yes, be patient.
[05:11] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Im sure that uses the 'mesa' driver for X, so when you get asked to chose a graphics driver pick that, let me just check
[05:11] <Pirate_Hunter> Shaftino@ wheer would I find the graphics acrd on devixce manager
[05:11] <Shaftino> SiS chipsets use the mesa driver?
[05:11] <raymondjtoth> not yet gnea but how do i can you walk me throw it
[05:11] <cyber_brain_mfkg> hi all!is there some gnome program for makeing cd covers???

[05:12] <raymondjtoth> ok and copy gnea what thay got
[05:12] <raymondjtoth> ?
[05:12] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Display Adapters
[05:12] <Pirate_Hunter> Shaftinono problem will use the mesa driver, give me a sec to boot to ubuntu again, Im currently able only to use one PC and sadly its this one
[05:12] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: yes, just copy the script to it, then save as mkdev.sh
[05:13] <Pirate_Hunter> Shaftino: Yeah SiS661FX
[05:13] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: it should be in either your home directory or Desktop folder
[05:13] <Dr_willis> mesa? aint heard that term in years
[05:13] <golfnit_> Hello all, I'm trying triple boot ubuntu (hd0,0), xp (hd0,1) and vista (hd0,3 ?) via grub.  Grub didn't detect Vista (on extended partition), so I made the entry manually.  Currently erron on vista boot: ntldr is missing
[05:13] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Well,
[05:13] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Write down the reconfigure command,
[05:13] <raymondjtoth> gnea can you check to make sure
[05:13] <raymondjtoth> so can put it right
[05:13] <raymondjtoth> place
[05:13] <Pirate_Hunter> Shaftino: will boot to ubuntu now hopefully you'll still be on if something does wrong and yea ive printed the reconfig command
[05:14] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: no, i can't see your screen, you have to help yourself sometimes.
[05:14] <Dr_willis> golfnit_,  thats a special file used by windows I recall. I THINK you may have to use the windows-restore/boot feature and use the 'fixboot' command. I google for more info however.
[05:14] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Mostly, will be choosing the defaults, like 'auto-detect mouse', unless its special hardware, and probably 'generic 104 keyboard'
[05:14] <raymondjtoth> gnea what folderr am i looking for
[05:14] <Trini_Man> how do i install compiz Fusion ?
[05:14] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: it doens't matter, just click on file->save as and you'll see it
[05:14] <raymondjtoth> gnea says want to save in my name folder is that ok
[05:14] <golfnit_> Dr_willis; I can boot to the partition if I choose XP at boot, then in the windows boot, choose vista, so the OS is good
[05:15] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: it won't save anywhere else, so yes
[05:15] <Trini_Man> how do i install Compiz fusion ?
[05:15] <leonetix> hi everybody, I want to buy an ipod 80GB (5.5 Generation) , Does anybody know whether there is a problem with using it under linux?

[05:16] <Dr_willis> golfnit_,  thats amuseing. :)  may be that the XP boot manager is tweaking some settings.
[05:16] <Gnea> hayslaptop: what's the problem?
[05:17] <[1] xdemondogx> hi all
[05:18] <golfnit_> Dr_willis: ya, not sure myself, it's one problem to be on the extended, but to boot vista seems to be another.  Unfortunally, the extended is where I had to put it.  Have any suggestions beyond going back to google.
[05:18] <Almindor> hey guys, I got a weird problem with UDP broadcast. I've got a test program to reply to a UDP broadcast, when I test on the same machine it works on my ubuntu 64bit laptop, but doesn't on 32bit desktop (ubuntu same version, feisty). I have no idea why. Neither machine has a firewall. I even see the modem blink on the send (on desktop machine)...
[05:18] <surviver> can anyone say me what the command was to send mails out of ur console , thought it was 'mail' but doesnt seems to work
[05:18] <Almindor> anyone know why a machine wouldn't get broadcasts send from itself?
[05:18] <raymondjtoth> gnea i get this
[05:18] <Dr_willis> golfnit_,  windows can be annoying. :) at least you do have a way for it to boot. I would guess that XP is somehow 'swapping drives' for the other install  Notice if the drive letters C: D: and so on change?
[05:18] <raymondjtoth> message
[05:19] <G4lv4tr0n> Tarz that kernel doesnt work i get kernel panic at startup
[05:19] <tyrus40be> LCD gives:"VIDEO MODE NOT SUPPORTED H:35.4khz V:86.6hz" after Ubuntu-CD-boot-menu ! Can anyone help me out here?
[05:19] <raymondjtoth> Make sure you loaded all the kernel drivers you need.
[05:19] <raymondjtoth> Try sensors-detect to find out which these are.
[05:19] <surviver> can anyone say me what the command was to send mails out of ur console , thought it was 'mail' but doesnt seems to work
[05:19] <raymondjtoth> sorry for spaming room
[05:19] <golfnit_> Dr_willis: now that you talk about that, the drives are swapped bt vista/xp.  Both think they are on the C:
[05:19] <raymondjtoth> !spam |raymondjtoth
[05:19] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: you didn't spam
[05:19] <Gnea> 2 lines isn't spam :)
[05:19] <mister_roboto> surviver: did u install mail?
[05:19] <erUSUL> surviver: error msg? have you configured the mta in your machine?
[05:20] <raymondjtoth> gnea o ok what i do i did this command
[05:20] <erUSUL> !postfix | surviver
[05:20] <ubotu> surviver: postfix is the default Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) for Ubuntu. Read more about setting it up here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix or here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixBasicSetupHowto
[05:20] <raymondjtoth> sudo sensors -s
[05:20] <Dr_willis> golfnit_,  you can 'swap' the drives with grub also. its like some odd x082 x083 option  the 82/83 is some how the bios numbers the drives.
[05:20] <raymondjtoth> and got that message
[05:20] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: well, tell me what you did after you copy and pasted the code?
[05:20] <ffm> How do I make a mount point?
[05:20] <raymondjtoth> i didnt do nithing came here to see what to do
[05:20] <Gnea> ffm: mkdir dir/
[05:20] <golfnit_> Dr_willis: does that have to do with the 'map' command in grub?
[05:20] <tolaras10> hi
[05:20] <raymondjtoth> gnea
[05:20] <hayslaptop> Gnea, trying to figure out how to give it its own IP through the wireless card
[05:20] <erUSUL> ffm: a mount point is a directory use mkdir or any file manager
[05:21] <raymondjtoth> gnea what i do
[05:21] <Dr_willis> golfnit_,  Aha.. Im thinking the old LILO options...
[05:21] <Dr_willis> golfnit_,  saw this in a menu.lst
[05:21] <Dr_willis> map (hd0,0) (hd0,4)
[05:21] <Dr_willis>   map (hd0,4) (hd0,0)
[05:21] <raymondjtoth> im getting there
[05:21] <Dr_willis> that seems to be swaping th e2 drives... on this system.. try somthing similer i guess.. good luck. :)
[05:21] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: this is pointless. just follow the directions on that website.
[05:21] <Pirate_Hunter> well back
[05:21] <golfnit_> Dr_willis: trying map command.  Thanks!
[05:22] <ques> hey all
[05:22] <raymondjtoth> doing this command sudo sensors -s
[05:22] <Pirate_Hunter> Shatino: you still around?
[05:22] <ques> anyone know their way around subversion?
[05:22] <Gnea> hayslaptop: that's easy, just don't load any linux driver for the wireless card, then have vmware load it and the OS within it should load a driver for it, then you can assign the ip
[05:22] <mister_roboto> ques:  yes
[05:22] <raymondjtoth> gnea this point sudo sensors -s
[05:22] <Pirate_Hunter> Shaftino: ???
[05:23] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Aye
[05:23] <hayslaptop> Gnea, in theory, yes, but there doesn't seem to be a way to do that
[05:23] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Any luck?
[05:23] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: ok, then run sudo sensors
[05:23] <raymondjtoth> gnea how do i
[05:23] <Pirate_Hunter> Shaftino: thanx yeah worked like a charmer you hit it right on d dot
[05:23] <tyrus40be> LCD gives:"VIDEO MODE NOT SUPPORTED H:35.4khz V:86.6hz" after Ubuntu-CD-boot-menu. help?!
[05:23] <Gnea> hayslaptop: sure there is, what kind of wireless card is it?
[05:23] <Nutubuntu> In a new installation of Feisty on new disks, Firefox is crashing, and occasionally it takes X with it. Xorg.0.log doesn't seem to have significant errors or warnings (at least, I don't think they are, can pastebin if anyone wants to see them). and I haven't seen anything in a Google search that gets me further toward solving problem. Video is onboard Nvidia 6150.
[05:23] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: type it and press enter.
[05:23] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, So ubuntu works ok now?
[05:23] <ques> mister_roboto: could you tell me how best to setup my repo on server for subversion.
[05:23] <hayslaptop> Gnea, intel
[05:24] <Gnea> hayslaptop: usb or pcmcia?
[05:24] <Pirate_Hunter> Shaftino: yup :-) im using it now
[05:24] <mister_roboto> ques: for personal use?
[05:24] <hayslaptop> Gnea, built in
[05:24] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Do you still need more resolutions?
[05:24] <ques> mister_roboto: my files are located in /home/sfprojects/mysite... and i want to be able to edit them from my local machine
[05:24] <Gnea> hayslaptop: is that a dell?
[05:24] <hayslaptop> toshiba
[05:24] <[1] xdemondogx> are there 3 ways too install ubuntu?
[05:24] <raymondjtoth> gnea cant finde it what the command agen
[05:24] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Or they ok?
[05:24] <Gnea> model #?
[05:24] <raymondjtoth> didnt do nothing
[05:24] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: it's on the webpage
[05:24] <Pirate_Hunter> Shaftino: yup :-( im only able to get 1024x800 which is absurd
[05:24] <raymondjtoth> i ran it and got this message
[05:24] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Okay...
[05:25] <Gnea> !pastebin | raymondjtoth
[05:25] <ubotu> raymondjtoth: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[05:25] <Nutubuntu> [1] xdemondogx, there are 3 main flavors, with different window managers, and there are 3 install CDs ... for each, I think
[05:25] <raymondjtoth> Make sure you loaded all the kernel drivers you need.
[05:25] <raymondjtoth> Try sensors-detect to find out which these are.
[05:25] <raymondjtoth> gnea that onhe
[05:25] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: did you run sensors-detect?
[05:25] <hayslaptop> Intel Pro Wireless 2200BG
[05:25] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Terminal.... 'gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[05:25] <Lundn> how do i log in as root
[05:25] <hayslaptop> Gnea, it doesn't show up in lspci though
[05:25] <raymondjtoth> not yet how do i
[05:25] <[1] xdemondogx> nutubuntu: the prob is my cd drive wont open=/
[05:25] <hayslaptop> Gnea, inside the guest OS that is
[05:25] <Gnea> hayslaptop: model # of the toshiba?
[05:25] <Lundn> so i can change files in etc/apache2
[05:25] <Pirate_Hunter> Shaftino: will do so give me a sec
[05:25] <mister_roboto> ques: if it's just for personal use, using "svnserve" is a lot quicker and easier to set up than going through apache.
[05:26] <Gnea> hayslaptop: you probably just need to blacklist the driver from loading
[05:26] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, np, give me a shout and ill start then
[05:26] <Gnea> !blacklist | hayslaptop
[05:26] <ubotu> hayslaptop: 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 
[05:26] <raymondjtoth> ok gnea just did
[05:26] <antanas> Hi, "Failed to load module "Nvidia", what to do ?
[05:26] <raymondjtoth> ok let me try it agen
[05:26] <alexou_> hello, when i run xvinfo -> X-Video Extension version 2.2 screen #0 no adaptors present. I have the driver vesa
[05:26] <Pirate_Hunter> Shaftino: yeah got the txt file showing
[05:26] <Nutubuntu> [1] xdemondogx, I believe there is also an install available to run from a thumb drive, but I'm not certain that's true. CD drives are inexpensive, can you swap out the failing drive?
[05:26] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: ok, go through it until it ends and follow any directions at the end
[05:26] <[1] xdemondogx> well
[05:27] <troopperi> antanas: what kind of card
[05:27] <mister_roboto> ques: you create the repository itself by using "svnadmin create <repo name> <repo location>"
[05:27] <golfnit_> Dr_willis: map set, grub boot error: Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format.  I'm going to google, thanks for direction.
[05:27] <raymondjtoth> gnea same err message comming up
[05:27] <raymondjtoth> what i do now
[05:27] <antanas> troopperi: nvidia Geforce Fx5500
[05:27] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Umm right at the bottom you see sections like depth with resolutions inside "s?
[05:27] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: did you run sudo /etc/init.d/module-init-tools
[05:27] <mister_roboto> ques: sorry, i mean just "svnadmin create <repo name>" where you want it created
[05:27] <[1] xdemondogx> nutubuntu: it is the E: drive that works for cd's but the system of windows says it works
[05:28] <hayslaptop> Gnea, not sure what I'm supposed to be doing exactly
[05:28] <Gnea> !nvidia | antanas
[05:28] <ubotu> antanas: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:28] <raymondjtoth> let me do that
[05:28] <raymondjtoth> yes gnea
[05:28] <Gnea> hayslaptop: you need to find the driver that the intel pro wireless card is using and blacklist it, then reboot the host OS
[05:28] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Under the screen section...
[05:28] <Pirate_Hunter> Shaftino: like depth/ Modes and different resolotuions?
[05:28] <[1] xdemondogx> athumb drive?
[05:28] <raymondjtoth> gnea yes same err as showed you
[05:28] <antanas> ubotu: i can't open it now ;> maybe you could write to me, what to do ? pm
[05:28] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, yep
[05:29] <raymondjtoth> what now
[05:29] <Gnea> hayslaptop: lsmod   will list them
[05:29] <mister_roboto> ques: you can acccess it locally using a file url. if you wanna use it remotely on another machine, you need to set up a server process that your svn client talks to (like svnserve)
[05:29] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: then maybe you don't have any sensors
[05:29] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Just check your default depth, usually 24?
[05:29] <hayslaptop> Gnea, what will that accomplish?
[05:29] <raymondjtoth> ok can i just skip it
[05:29] <Nutubuntu> [1] xdemondogx, maybe I'm not understanding properly. Will the CD drive tray physically not open to allow you to insert or remove a CD, or is the problem something else?
[05:29] <raymondjtoth> it showed me what i got
[05:29] <Gnea> hayslaptop: i've already explained initially.
[05:29] <Pirate_Hunter> Shaftino: yeha i go up to depth 24 and it is i.e. "4095x4095" "4095x2047" "3967x3903" "2288x1716" "1024x768" "832x624" "800x600" "752x470" "720x400" "640x480"
[05:29] <troopperi> antanas: have you installed some drivers? nvidia legacy dirvers?
[05:29] <raymondjtoth> via dose gnea
[05:30] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Thats your current list?
[05:30] <Gnea> hayslaptop: it will prevent the driver from being loaded so that the guest OS can see the card so that IT can load a driver
[05:30] <hayslaptop> Gnea, the problem is that I don't understand what VMWare is going to do
[05:30] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Also, whats your desired resoultion?
[05:30] <mister_roboto> ques: if you don't know anything at all about svn or how it works, and you never used such a tool, it's really not possible to explain everything in a irc chat. you'll have to do some reading on it. the subversion site has a lot of documentation
[05:30] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: well, it's obviously not finding any on yours
[05:30] <[1] xdemondogx> nutubuntu: the rive will not openyes, but IF there where on then sometimes it wont seeit on the drive
[05:30] <Gnea> hayslaptop: well, i just told you what it's going to do.
[05:30] <hayslaptop> Gnea, oh, my parent OS is WinXP, so you are saying turn it off there?
[05:30] <Gnea> hayslaptop: ... yes.
[05:31] <Pirate_Hunter> Shaftino: i.e. above 102x800 whats the next two?
[05:31] <raymondjtoth> gnea i did the command sudo -s one and still getting same err i ran what told me to and did it like 3 times befor comming here
[05:31] <antanas> troopperi: no, sudo apt-get install .... and what then ?
[05:31] <hayslaptop> Hmm..  So I have to choose between having the wireless in the host or the guest, but not both
[05:31] <Gnea> hayslaptop: right click on my computer, click on properties, hardware->device manager, open up network adapters, right click on intel pro wireless->disable
[05:31] <troopperi> sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx nvidia-kernel-common
[05:31] <raymondjtoth> gnea will not load into kernal
[05:31] <raymondjtoth> is what trying to do
[05:31] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, I couldnt tell you off the top of my head sorry =(
[05:31] <raymondjtoth> will not do it
[05:31] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: no no no
[05:31] <raymondjtoth> with this one
[05:31] <antanas> troopperi: ok
[05:31] <raymondjtoth> sudo sensors -s thats what site telling me to do
[05:32] <hayslaptop> Gnea, I'll give it a shot.  Still was hoping to have both be able to use the wireless networking
[05:32] <troopperi> antanas: then sudo nvidia-xconfig
[05:32] <Nutubuntu> [1] xdemondogx, I'm sorry, but I still am not sure I understand. I think you are saying that (a) the CD drive does open and close, and (b) sometimes the CD drive does not detect a CD when one is inserted. Do I have that right?
[05:32] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: you have to perform the commands in ORDER
[05:32] <antanas> ok
[05:32] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: if it doesn't find any sensors, then you don't have any sensors
[05:32] <raymondjtoth> im at sudo sensors -s that one
[05:32] <linuxor> HI, what is the best software to record the desktop(screen+sound)? thx
[05:32] <raymondjtoth> im trying to load them
[05:32] <Pirate_Hunter> Shaftino: damn so much for only using one PC well theoretically if i wanted to increase the resolution what would I do (i'll check on windows afterwards before making changes)
[05:32] <[1] xdemondogx> nutbuntu : b is good
[05:32] <[1] xdemondogx> but a wrong
[05:32] <raymondjtoth> so how do i fource it so loades
[05:32] <[1] xdemondogx> it DOESNT open
[05:32] <raymondjtoth> ok i found stuff
[05:33] <raymondjtoth> but how a getg it to load
[05:33] <VENSTER> Can any body tell me, why I can't get IP address from DHCP server under UBUNTU? Windows can get.
[05:33] <raymondjtoth> its telling me to do that
[05:33] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Simply add the resolution first in the list inside " " under the depth 24 section
[05:33] <antanas> troopperi: nothing.. same error.. couldn't find nvidia module
[05:33] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: it tells you what to do to load them.
[05:33] <raymondjtoth> gnea this one Load the modules into kernel with
[05:33] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Or just replace the first resolution with the one you want, then save that, and hit control + alt + backspace
[05:33] <raymondjtoth> sudo sensors -s
[05:33] <troopperi> antanas: your card have good connection on motherboard?
[05:33] <antanas> yes
[05:34] <hayslaptop> is feisty still relatively new, e.g. I should get pretty recent software using it?
[05:34] <troopperi> antanas: can you get open graphical desktop
[05:34] <antanas> troopperi: no
[05:34] <raymondjtoth> gnea what i do now if may ask
[05:34] <antanas> troopperi: there was another error before
[05:34] <troopperi> antanas: just second
[05:34] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: let it go and do something else, it won't work
[05:34] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: or ask someone else to help
[05:34] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Infact the second way, just take the first resolution listed under the 24 depth resolutions, and replace it with your desired inside the "s. then save then ctrl+altx
[05:34] <troopperi> antanas: you update your system
[05:34] <raymondjtoth> gnea how i remove it
[05:34] <Pirate_Hunter> Shaftino: so i should just replace the first resolution "4095x4095" with the one I want? is that all...?
[05:34] <troopperi> antanas: ?
[05:34] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, ctrl+alt+backspace*
[05:35] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: reboot.
[05:35] <raymondjtoth> ok will get ride of it
[05:35] <antanas> something, that kernel version isn't same as nvidia kernel or smth like that ;o
[05:35] <raymondjtoth> might do fan one
[05:35] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Just change whats inside the quotation marks yeah
[05:35] <raymondjtoth> gnea will work
[05:35] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Sorry bit poo at explaining =(
[05:35] <hayslaptop> I guess what I am asking is whether feisty is like 'stable' or 'testing' in debian
[05:35] <ffm> hayslaptop, It is stable
[05:36] <[1] xdemondogx> but
[05:36] <ffm> hayslaptop, Gutsy is testing.
[05:36] <[1] xdemondogx> the
[05:36] <Shaftino> hayslaptop, They take a screenshot form the unstable branch for software i believe... but its stable
[05:36] <Pirate_Hunter> Shaftino: kk will do so but I might just add the one I want that way if I ever get a HD monitor I can use the highest resolution available
[05:36] <[1] xdemondogx> way to use the thumb drive?
[05:36] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Yeah sure
[05:36] <Nutubuntu> [1] xdemondogx, if the drive does not open and close reliably, and sometimes does not detect a CD, I'd replace the drive if that is possible. However, if you *cannot* replace the drive, look into the possibility of booting the Minimal Install iso image from a thumb drive. I would not try to install from a known-failing CD drive. (Of course that's my opinion; others may have different ones.)
[05:36] <raymondjtoth> gnea will it remove after reboot since didnt load

[05:37] <Kim^J> Anyone good at X configuring here? I want to use my third screen, but X says this: (WW) VESA: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:2:2:0) found
[05:37] <linuxor> HI, what is the best software to record the desktop(screen+sound)? thx
[05:37] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Its okay pal :)
[05:37] <[1] xdemondogx> nutubuntu : i dotn get it
[05:37] <Shaftino> Pirate_Hunter, Glad i could help
[05:37] <Kim^J> That's the only thing it says about that screen.
[05:37] <Gnea> raymondjtoth: why don't you just reboot it and find out?
[05:37] <Kim^J> And it comes no matter how I configure it.
[05:38] <Nutubuntu> [1] xdemondogx, sorry ... can you be specific? What part doesn't make sense?
[05:38] <Pirate_Hunter> Shaftino: >:-) hope to see you around I'm gone to finish my work, take care bye

[05:38] <dthacker> Hi, I'm looking for the .pdf of the Official Ubuntu Book.  The link seems to have migrated.  Is it still available?
[05:38] <krips> hey
[05:38] <krips> ga
[05:38] <krips> i need a program for capture video of my desktop
[05:39] <[1] xdemondogx> nututbuntu this part: sometimes does not detect a CD, I'd replace the drive if that is possible. However, if you *cannot* replace the drive, look into the possibility of booting the Minimal Install iso image from a thumb drive. I would not try to install from a known-failing CD drive. (Of course that's my opinion; others may have different ones.)
[05:39] <`4aFkA`> How can i see the apt-get programs which i have installed on my ubuntu???
[05:40] <TeraDyne> krips, try "istanbul" or "recordmydesktop"
[05:40] <Milux> someone use kvirc?
[05:40] <troopperi> !synapctic
[05:40] <krips> TeraDyne ok dude ty
[05:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about synapctic - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:40] <Nutubuntu> [1] xdemondogx, if a CD drive sometimes failed to read and sometimes failed to open, I would replace it. If no replacement is available, I would try to install from a different device, a thumb drive. (Here is a rather old article on doing that: http://learn.clemsonlinux.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Install_from_USB_drive)

[05:42] <TheFuzzball> hi guys, whenever I try to install any app from source it gives me this config error: configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[05:42] <TheFuzzball> can someone help me?
[05:42] <Enselic__> TheFuzzball: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[05:42] <Enselic__> TheFuzzball: the compiler is not installed by default

[05:43] <Nutubuntu> [1] xdemondogx, the "Minimal" iso image is only about 8MB and will fit on a thumb drive. It requires an Internet connection. (Because it downloads everything from the Internet, it can take a long time to finish.)
[05:43] <TheFuzzball> Enoex, as iss c++ and gcc
[05:43] <pr4bh> hi guys, can anyone tell me some good website that catalogs cool apps for ubuntu?
[05:43] <Enselic__> TheFuzzball: what does which gcc tell you?

[05:46] <TheFuzzball> Enselic__, cool
[05:47] <Nutubuntu> [1] xdemondogx, see http://learn.clemsonlinux.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Install_from_USB_drive - it is for an older version but the procedure looks as if it would work

[05:50] <[1] xdemondogx> nutubuntu : how do you know if your pc is capable of booting via a USB drive?
[05:51] <Enselic__> TheFuzzball: what does   which ld   give you?
[05:51] <TheFuzzball> Enselic__, nothing
[05:51] <raf256_> ioctl: LOOP_SET_STATUS: Invalid argument, requested cipher or key length (256 bits) not supported by kernel
[05:51] <Enselic__> TheFuzzball: what does locate ld give you?

[05:51] <raf256_> also how to list supported encryptions?
[05:51] <[1] xdemondogx> nvm
[05:51] <Enselic__> TheFuzzball: nevermind
[05:52] <Enselic__> TheFuzzball: anyway, your problem is that you don't have the linker in your path
[05:52] <Enselic__> TheFuzzball: maybe not even installed
[05:52] <Ne0nlt> nvidia kernel module has 1.0-7184 version, but X module has 1.0-9631 version. How to make them same ??
[05:52] <TheFuzzball> Enselic__, what package would you suggest installing
[05:52] <INIT_6_>  Nutubuntu, thanks, it was created I just didn't see it happen.
[05:52] <Enselic__> TheFuzzball: if you completely uninstall build-essential and thn reinstall it, you should get ld
[05:52] <Enselic__> TheFuzzball: afaik ld should be in build-essential
[05:52] <O_o> hello i got a problem, i got my partitions mounted rw but i cant make dir 's on it nor set files on it :s:s anyone?
[05:53] <TheFuzzball> Enselic__, I already tried uninstalling build-essential

[05:54] <Nutubuntu> INIT_6_, there is another article I found very helpful in creating software RAID: http://users.piuha.net/martti/comp/ubuntu/raid.html
[05:54] <Enselic__> TheFuzzball: are you sure you didn't mess up your system? it's really strange that you don't have ld if you previously installed build-essential
[05:54] <Gnea> O_o: is there enough space left?
[05:55] <TheFuzzball> Enselic__, I swear I didn't do anything

[05:56] <[1] xdemondogx> [17:55]  <[1] xdemondogx> for installing Ubuntu ya dotn need a SUB stick right?, also there will be 100% gaurantee that your pc can be set to windows again right?

[05:57] <supremesonic> enselic__ you got time to help me with some easy math? not explaining but just how to set it up correct on paper
[05:57] <Gnea> O_o: umount it and mount it again
[05:58] <Nutubuntu> In a new installation of Feisty on new disks, Firefox is crashing, and occasionally it takes X with it. Xorg.0.log doesn't seem to have significant errors or warnings (at least, I don't think they are, can pastebin if anyone wants to see them). and I haven't seen anything in a Google search that gets me further toward solving problem. Video is onboard Nvidia 6150.
[05:58] <Enselic__> TheFuzzball: what does sudo apt-get install gcc say?
[05:58] <O_o> gnea, but it works i can write stuff on it with root in console :s:s ill try

[06:03] <_Andrew> Cheap_Trick: You could try the Window Ubuntu Beta installer
[06:03] <troopperi> Antanas: try install automatix and let it install nvidia drivers
[06:03] <Enselic> TheFuzzball: we're doing risky things though, so proceed on you own risk :)
[06:03] <Cheap_Trick> andrew: I don't use windows
[06:03] <Antanas> ok
[06:03] <Jack_Sparrow> !automatix
[06:03] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use.

[06:08] <Daveyboy> is there a ubuntu server specific channel?
[06:08] <Dante123> Hi All....is there a decent open souce slideshow creator that allows basic effects and audio to accompany slides?
[06:08] <Gnea> name642: back it up onto cds or dvds first
[06:08] <raymondjtoth> so gean the default stuff is ok with it
[06:09] <raymondjtoth> for my dell e1505 notebook
[06:09] <TheFuzzball> Enselic, it's still doing it, it has to do it for gcc too, cause' I removed that first
[06:09] <raf256_> Dante123: hmm perhaps openoffice
[06:09] <O_o> gnea, /dev/disk/by-uuid/ab6cd215-4f2a-4407-b52b-dcb6940ae2c1 /media/sda4 ext3 rw,data=ordered 0 0
[06:09] <Shaftino> I followed every guide I could find to get Sound Jucier to rip in mp3...with no luck :(, I have all the required lame stuff installed, but still nothing, any suggestions?

[06:09] <raf256_> O_o: cool nick
[06:09] <Gnea> O_o: looks good, see if you can write to it now
[06:09] <O_o> raf256_, xD

[06:10] <Enselic> Dante123: do you want to be able to export it in some way? otherwise just have music playing in the background
[06:11] <Dante123> I need to export it so that it can run on Windoze.....unfortunately
[06:11] <hayslaptop> does totem have x264 support in ubuntu?
[06:12] <O_o> gnea, i can see why they say /media/ ..  cause its mount point :D
[06:12] <TheFuzzball> Enselic, it's downloading at 18k/s so it will be a while :)

[06:13] <name642> i cant even get a disk label on it
[06:13] <Enselic> TheFuzzball: ok    keep me updated, this is an interesting problem :)
[06:13] <TheFuzzball> Enselic, :)

[06:17] <raymondjtoth> any one i mean
[06:18] <jrib> darwich: do you know how to edit your xorg.conf?
[06:18] <TheFuzzball> Enselic, It fixed it!
[06:18] <[1] xdemondogx> if ya didnt like ubuntuand ya want to step over to win or mac how ya gonna install it(- if ya used the usb drive for insatlling ubuntu)
[06:18] <raymondjtoth> any inb channel good with gkrellm program for dell
[06:18] <databus> I'm having problems building Perl modules from CPAN.  I get missing library files as well as "invalid type of argument 'unary *'  I've just loaded Fedora and it worked fine.  any ideas?
[06:18] <Enselic> TheFuzzball: great, congratz :)
[06:18] <raymondjtoth> ?
[06:18] <Enselic> TheFuzzball: something must have been messed up with dependencies
[06:18] <Gnea> [1] xdemondogx: did you try any other linux distros?
[06:19] <Enselic> TheFuzzball: do you use dpkg?
[06:19] <[1] xdemondogx> distros?
[06:19] <darwich> jrib: In a way yes ..
[06:19] <Gnea> distributions
[06:19] <Enselic> !distro | [1] xdemondogx
[06:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about distro - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:19] <TheFuzzball> Enselic, I used aptitude
[06:19] <raymondjtoth> im sad now onw know gkrellm :(
[06:19] <Shaftino> [1] xdemondogx, Like i said, you usually have a windows/mac cd with your pc
[06:19] <Enselic> TheFuzzball: good, cause using dpkg directly is not good
[06:19] <jrib> darwich: you want to add the "DontZap" option, see  man xorg.conf
[06:19] <supremesonic> !distro
[06:19] <Shaftino> [1] xdemondogx, You just boot from that, and install from there
[06:20] <hellogoodbye> can anyone recomend any command line utilities for generating public key pairs and encrypting using them?
[06:20] <TheFuzzball> Enselic, I only use dpkg for .deb files
[06:20] <FerrariD> Good afternoon! :D
[06:20] <supremesonic> !distributions
[06:20] <ubotu> Other !Linux distributions besides !Ubuntu include: Debian, Mepis (using !APT); RedHat, Fedora, SUSE, Mandriva (using !RPM); Gentoo, Slackware (using other packaging systems)
[06:20] <[1] xdemondogx> shaft: my cd drive dont doesnt work
[06:20] <raymondjtoth> hi frerrarid
[06:20] <troopperi> !easyubuntu
[06:20] <TheFuzzball> Enselic, apt-get and aptitude for everything else
[06:20] <ubotu> easyubuntu is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. See http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ - For help and or discussions about EasyUbuntu please join #easyubuntu
[06:20] <TheFuzzball> Enselic, anyway I've fixed it now, so cya
[06:20] <Enselic> TheFuzzball: ciao
[06:20] <darwich> jrib> can you explain more _
[06:20] <TheFuzzball> Enselic, thanks for your help
[06:20] <Enselic> TheFuzzball: my pleasure
[06:20] <Gnea> [1] xdemondogx: no cd drive? no windows
[06:20] <Shaftino> [1] xdemondogx, Ummm well, I dont actually think theres an easy way to install windows without a cd drive, unless you have some sort of restore function on your hard drive
[06:21] <raymondjtoth> jrib you good with grellm for dell
[06:21] <Gnea> [1] xdemondogx: try www.distrowatch.org there might be a better distro for you
[06:21] <Shaftino> [1] xdemondogx, Easiest thing to do, would just partition your Hard drive to leave windows on there, try ubuntu, if you dont like it you simply delete the partitions
[06:21] <Shaftino> !dualboot > [1] xdemondogx
[06:21] <jrib> darwich: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xorg.conf search for "DontZap" on that page.  You need that same line (in the ServerFlags section) in your xorg.conf.  But you should uncomment it.  Remember, only that one line is needed and you probably need to create the ServerFlags section
[06:22] <raymondjtoth> jrib any good with gkrellm \for dell
[06:22] <raymondjtoth> ?
[06:22] <jrib> raymondjtoth: not really
[06:22] <Gnea> Shaftino: read what he said: he has no cd drive, and windows isn't there, which means he can't reinstall windows until he gets a new drive, but he wants to replace ubuntu in the meantime
[06:22] <cafe_> hi all!
[06:22] <darwich> jrib> : ill try
[06:22] <FerrariD> :) I have a weird project I'd like to do... A small linux box, with a webcam. What do you guys suggest? The CPU is very low power (MHz proc) thx
[06:22] <jrib> raymondjtoth: it's best to ask the channel a specific question
[06:22] <raymondjtoth> need help setting up gkrellm any one good with it?
[06:23] <Shaftino> Gnea, I know, I was just making a suggestion pal
[06:23] <raymondjtoth> its foe dell
[06:23] <jrib> darwich: you can pastebin your xorg.conf when you are done and I will review it if you want
[06:23] <raymondjtoth> foe=for
[06:23] <Shaftino> Gnea, Ohhh stupid me
[06:23] <cafe_> how can i mount an iso image to a virtual drive?
[06:23] <johnny> what's the best way to enable more verbose output from networkmanager/wpasupplicant ?
[06:23] <Shaftino> Gnea, Didnt read properly
[06:23] <darwich> jrib : do i have to delete that line ?
[06:23] <jrib> !iso > cafe_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:23] <Gnea> Shaftino: it's beer o' clock :)
[06:23] <cafe_> cheers!!
[06:23] <jrib> darwich: ?  no, you shouldn't have the line... you need to add it to *your* xorg.conf
[06:24] <darwich> jrib: i dont really understand ? :/
[06:24] <jrib> darwich: join me in #ubuntu-classroom
[06:24] <FerrariD> Or rather, what's the "lightest" ubuntu I can get? No GUI needed
[06:24] <FerrariD> ?
[06:24] <FerrariD> :)
[06:25] <Gnea> FerrariD: how 'light' do you need it to be? :)
[06:25] <Gnea> FerrariD: the server version is usually pretty less GUIfied
[06:25] <jrib> !minimal > FerrariD (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:26] <Gnea> oooh nice
[06:27] <Jun> Hi Gnea...
[06:27] <Gnea> Hi.
[06:27] <Jun> How are you...
[06:28] <HiP_P> anyone else having trouble logging in to google talk using gaim today?
[06:28] <Gnea> Jun: fine, what's your real question?
[06:28] <Gnea> HiP_P: have you tried pidgin?
[06:29] <HiP_P> nop.... gaim logs in but some reason it isnt today
[06:29] <cafe_> guys, i just installed google earth, but it runs very slow and eats 50% of my cpu. anyone having this trouble???
[06:29] <mister_roboto> ques: you still there?
[06:29] <carlosfs> Hi. I've just installed Ubuntu Studio, from Feisty, and.. when i login into "lowlatency" in grub, my wireless connection fails.. when i login into generic it's works well... Does anyone knows what it means?
[06:29] <HiP_P> ill give pidgin a go
[06:29] <Gnea> cafe_: works fine here, what are your system stats? cpu/ram/video card/etc?
[06:29] <mister_roboto> cafe_: sounds like you don't have 3d acceleration enabled :)
[06:30] <Jun> Gnea: Is there any question and aswer portion here. It's my firs tiem in this channel. Sorry.
[06:30] <darwich> Eeeh
[06:30] <concept10> carlesoriol, that may mean that your wireless chipset isnt compiled into that kernel or included as a module
[06:30] <Shaftino> Jun, Just ask away, someone will answer if they know :)
[06:30] <hylje> carlosfs: the wifi driver is incompatible with lowlatency, it appears
[06:30] <cafe_> P4 3.2ghz HT/1GB/Radeon 9800XT 256mb
[06:30] <concept10> carlosfs, ^^^
[06:30] <Jun> Is there any question and answer portion here. It's my first time in this channel...
[06:30] <Shaftino> Jun, Just ask away, someone will answer if they know :)
[06:30] <darwich> Who was the guy who helped me 2 minutes ago ? -.-'
[06:30] <Gnea> Jun: ah, well welcome to #ubuntu. around here it's pretty cut and dry - just ask your question and don't ask to ask a question, that'll only make people mad - get straight to the point
[06:31] <carlosfs> hylje: but.. what means "lowwlatency" ?
[06:31] <cafe_> it runs perfectly on another SO
[06:31] <hylje> carlosfs: a specialty kernel
[06:31] <Gnea> Jun: and don't repeat your question until after 20 minutes if no one answers right away.
[06:31] <hylje> carlosfs: which is built differently, with special patches and parameters
[06:31] <darwich> Who was the guy who helped me 2 minutes ago ? -.-'
[06:31] <cafe_> mister_roboto, how do i check/enable 3d acceleration?
[06:31] <Gnea> Jun: have fun and good luck :)
[06:32] <jrib> darwich: ?
[06:32] <databus> can I turn off the system messages? (entered the room / let the room )?? I doesn't seem to be an option in Pidgin.
[06:32] <darwich> jrib: what was the channel name ?P
[06:32] <jrib> darwich: #ubuntu-classroom
[06:32] <iqon> i've changed the preference in "removable drives and media preferences" to a program other than gthumb, but attaching a camera still opens gthumb, is there something else i should be doing?
[06:32] <hylje> carlosfs: such kernels may break some drivers, particularly proprietary
[06:32] <mister_roboto> cafe_: you'll need a video driver that can do it for your card
[06:32] <Jun> Gnea: It seem like we have wonderful people in this channel. Thank you for your support...
[06:32] <pham> If nvidia drivers are installed, sudo nvidia-glx-config enable
[06:33] <Jun> I'm from the Philippines. First time in this channel..
[06:33] <carlosfs> hylje: oww.. and how can i change grub to generic be default?
[06:33] <cafe_> so i should try to install an ati drive (as im using the "default" one), right?
[06:33] <mister_roboto> !nvidia | cafe_
[06:33] <ubotu> cafe_: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:33] <silver62> my pan news readers doesn't start anymore
[06:33] <HiP_P> ah guess pidgin isnt in the package server for this old version (Dapper Drake)
[06:33] <Cenobyte> Has anyone managed to get ubuntu working with a 680i motherboard?
[06:34] <cafe_> cheers!!
[06:34] <lufis> Quick before i go blind... how do i change screen resolution in kde?
[06:34] <hylje> carlosfs: i dont remember out of hand, but you need to touch some text files
[06:34] <Gnea> Jun: you're welcome! take your time and let us know if you have any issues with ubuntu that we can help you out with.
[06:34] <HiP_P> cheers anyway gnea
[06:35] <carlosfs> hylje: ok thanks.. i'll look for this.. thanks a lot
[06:35] <Jun> Gnea: I have a nvidia gfoce 2 mx 100 installed in my pc. It displays some kind of linear traces in the screen, Is there any problem with the my vga.
[06:36] <concept10> heh.  Ubuntu: Makes even the hardest debian-zealot soft.  ahem, Gnea, oh, excuse me
[06:36] <Cenobyte> When I start Ubuntu (liveCD or otherwise), as soon as X.org tries to enter graphics mode, the monitor goes into power save mode and nothing will display (obviously).  The startup sound plays, and there is disk activity which would indicate the system did not simply freeze.
[06:36] <Cenobyte> I've checked the resolutions and screen settings and they appear to be correct.
[06:36] <Dr_willis> Cenobyte,  this a CRT or LCD monitor?
[06:36] <Gnea> concept10: whatever you say
[06:36] <Cenobyte> I've never gotten any linux install to work in graphics mode on this system
[06:37] <Enselic> Cenobyte: what happends if you start in Safe graphics mode?
[06:37] <Cenobyte> Same thing
[06:37] <wols_> concept10: there are a few "harder" debian zealots here
[06:37] <concept10> whoa!
[06:37] <wols_> Cenobyte: what videocard?
[06:37] <Shaftino> Cenobyte, What card?
[06:37] <Cenobyte> ATI radeon X1800XT
[06:37] <Gnea> Jun: you maybe using the open source video driver "nv" is causing it
[06:37] <wols_> Cenobyte: what videocard driver?
[06:38] <Gnea> !nvidia | Jun
[06:38] <ubotu> Jun: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
, thanks! I'm going to see if I download that now.
[06:38] <Cenobyte> Ubuntu apparently installes the vesa driver by default, but I've tried the included radeon driver as well with no luck.
[06:38] <Gnea> Jun: there should be a legacy nvidia driver that you can use for it
[06:38] <pham> For some strange reason, disabling the splash and/or booting with verbose solved the same issua with a rare ati card
[06:38] <wols_> Cenobyte: that won't work. you can choose between vesa or fglrx
[06:38] <Dr_willis> framebuffer was causing issues eh?
[06:38] <wols_> !ati | Cenobyte
[06:38] <ubotu> Cenobyte: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto

[06:39] <Cenobyte> Ok.. sounds like a plan, I'll give it a try
[06:39] <Cenobyte> But it seems like it should work in vesa mode at least.
[06:39] <alvargonzalez> arcor?
[06:40] <taa> i've both kdm and gdm installed (i've installed kde on ubuntu), is it possible to switch between kdm and gdm without deleting one to make the other working ?
[06:40] <Jun> Gnea: So it is the video card and the driver. there is no problem with the other sources such as monitor, mother board, etc..
[06:40] <taa> i mean, my default manager is kdm atm, is it possible to make gdm default without uninstalling kdm ?
[06:40] <Bassetts> i just installed gutsy on another partition to test, how do I make grub use the previous grub install on sda3 ?
[06:40] <mage> taa: thats just the login manager, dont need to switch back and forth to change between kde and gnome
[06:40] <Dr_willis> taa,  sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm
[06:40] <Cenobyte> Thanks for your help, I will try the fglrx drivers.
[06:40] <alvargonzalez> taa: you can select the predetermined window manager when you start session
[06:41] <Gnea> Jun: well we're a software support channel, if the software doesn't work then go after the hardware
[06:41] <taa> alvargonzalezo so if i start gnome alvargonzalezok
[06:41] <taa> oops
[06:41] <taa> alvargonzalez ok ty
[06:41] <maximal_> taa: sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm if you want to switch back to gdm (but there is no real need to)
[06:41] <concept10> taa, you can change out almost anything you want in linux
[06:41] <Dr_willis> taa,  the kdm/gdm login managers. have a menu to select what desktop to use.
[06:41] <Dr_willis> taa,  so it depends on what you are really asking. :)
[06:42] <kmasta> i was trying to upgrade to fiesty and I got an error message saying that it couldn't fetch somehting

[06:43] <Bassetts> i just installed gutsy on another partition to test, how do I make grub use the previous grub install on sda3 ?
[06:44] <francisco> is it true that gutsy has beryl by default?
[06:44] <kazol> How do I edit a text file in terminal?

[06:45] <Shaftino> francisco, They are aiming to do that yes, but instead with compfusion or whatever its called
[06:45] <Bassetts> vox754, i just installed gutsy, and now the grub on the gutsy partition is being used, but i want the grub on the feisty partition to be used
[06:45] <kazol> Dr_willis, maximal_: vi is impossible for me to use. I just don't get it how it's done. I can't even exit the app.
[06:45] <Shaftino> francisco, The new program from the merge of compiz+beryl
[06:45] <vox754> Dr_willis, let's stick with nano and vim. No need to mention others.
[06:45] <xdemondogx> Boo
[06:45] <kazol> vox754: Is vim easier to use than vi?
[06:45] <maximal_> kazol: vi takes a little learning but is on just about every unix
[06:46] <Dr_willis> kazol,  easier? no. its a improved vi.
[06:46] <vox754> kazol, no. Use nano instead. Remember to use the control key.
[06:46] <kazol> maximal_: How do I exit vim?
[06:46] <francisco> thanks shaftino
[06:46] <mage> vim lets you use the arrow keys and stuffs
[06:46] <darwich> Can anybody help me change my " CTRL + ALT + BACKSPACE " keyes
[06:46] <Dr_willis> !info vi-tutor
[06:46] <ubotu> Package vi-tutor does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[06:46] <maximal_> kazol: type :wq
[06:46] <Dr_willis> Hmm.
[06:46] <kazol> maximal_: where?
[06:46] <maximal_> kazol: w=write q=quit
[06:47] <maximal_> kazol: type escape to get to command mode first
[06:47] <vox754> kazol, yes, most vim commands are activated by pressing the : key and then words
[06:47] <databus> is there a way to disable IRC system messages? (left the room, entered the room)?
[06:47] <Dr_willis> kazol,  thers a  vimtutor  command - that is a introduction to vi. (vi is worth learning)
[06:47] <mage> databus probably irc client specifiy
[06:47] <mage> specific I mean
[06:47] <kane77> how can i connect to cisco router from  ubuntu? windows has the hyperterminal...
[06:47] <kazol> maximal_: Still not quitting. It gives me error msgs.
[06:48] <Dr_willis> kazol,  hit escape, then :wq
[06:48] <databus> I thought so, but I'm surprised I don't see on in Gaim/Pidgin
[06:48] <maximal_> kazol: what errors?
[06:48] <mage> kane77 like minicom or telnet?
[06:48] <kmasta> what does this error mean when I'm tyring to upgrade to fiesty Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy-security/main/binary-amd64/Packages.bz2 Sub-process bzip2 returned an error code (2)
[06:48] <kmasta>  Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy-security/main/binary-amd64/Packages.bz2 Sub-process bzip2 returned an error code (2)
[06:48] <vox754> Bassetts, Do you two /boot partitions/directories for each of your installations?
[06:48] <kane77> mage, i know about telnet, but I mean the com port...
[06:48] <maximal_> kazol: type :q! to quite without saving
[06:48] <darwich> Can anybody help me change my " CTRL + ALT + BACKSPACE " keyes
[06:48] <kazol> Dr_willis: Esc. does not work, only :
[06:48] <mage> kane77 I last used minicom to do that, but maybe theres better
[06:48] <Jun> Gnea, Yes it is Nvia, I lookd up to to the link you psted it says that nvicia gforce ms 100/200 legacy GPUs are no longer supported in the unified driver. These GPUs will continue to be maintained through the special legacy NVIDIA GPU driver releases. What is this all about...
[06:48] <Bassetts> vox, sda3 has grub on it and so does sda5, sda3 is feisty and sda5 is gutsy, i want grub on sda3 to be used
[06:49] <maximal_> kazol: did you try to write to a read onlyfile?
[06:49] <kazol> maximal_: Now that worked. thx
[06:49] <Dr_willis> kazol,  you are lacking basic vi info. Escape gets you out of any modes you are in, then the : key enters command line, wq then writes/quits
[06:49] <qnyc> kane77, there is gtkterm for serial port
[06:49] <concept10> Darklock, what would you want it do instead?
[06:50] <kane77> qnyc, mage, thx
[06:50] <Dr_willis> kazol,  esc :q!  or Q! should force quit. Not saving changes
[06:50] <disposable> gnychis, simply install sun java jre and it will work with firefox
[06:50] <kazol> Dr_willis: When I call "wq" it says "No file name"
[06:50] <concept10> darwich, what would you want it do instead?
[06:50] <databus> /sysmsg
[06:50] <Dr_willis> kazol,  then use w somefilename
[06:50] <Dr_willis> then quit.. Logical eh? :)
[06:50] <vox754> Bassetts, How do you know you have "two grubs" ?  Are there two grub directories?
[06:51] <Dr_willis> unless of course the fileis useless.. then  the Force quit to just quit.
[06:51] <kazol> ok it works now. Thx
[06:51] <Bassetts> vox754, well i know gutsy installed grub, and there are directories for it on sda3 and sda5
[06:51] <darwich> concept10 : Something else ..
[06:51] <Rug> darwich: Question about your Nick;  Inspired by the movie "Enemy Mine"?
[06:52] <vox754> Dr_willis, why would you use "vi" instead of "vim"?
[06:52] <darwich> Rug: No .. that my last name :D
[06:52] <Dr_willis> vox754,  when you install vim. it makes a 'vi' command/alias..  so in fact you proberly ARE using vim
[06:52] <Rug> darwich: ahh ok
[06:52] <Dr_willis> vox754,  some mini disrtos have a minimal vi installed
[06:52] <darwich> Rug: Hehe =)
[06:53] <Rug> darwich: do you know the movie?
[06:53] <darwich> Rug: Nope .. never heard about it before /:
[06:53] <Rug> It's a deecent movie with Louis Gosset Jr.  Sci-Fi
[06:54] <Kubuntu> How do I configure Mysql??
[06:54] <vox754> Bassetts, so you have like two root directories /  one for feisty and the other one for gutsy?
[06:54] <maximal_> Dr_willis: my default vi is vim.tiny
[06:54] <Bassetts> vox754, yes they have their own partitions
[06:54] <Rug> Kubuntu: use phpmyadmin, it's a great tool
[06:54] <Dr_willis> maximal_,  yep. thats how ubuntu does it. First thing I do is install the full vim
[06:55] <vox754> Bassetts, and each one has a /boot directory?
[06:55] <Bassetts> yes
[06:55] <maximal_> Dr_willis: the nice thing with vi is that it always seems to point to something :)
[06:55] <Kubuntu> But I don't know the username/passowrd!
[06:55] <Rug> Kubuntu: why not?
[06:55] <armyriad> How do I compress something into a tar.gz archive?
[06:55] <tarzeau> armyriad: tar czf the.tar.gz /etc
[06:56] <tarzeau> armyriad: or just somedir-1.0
[06:56] <armyriad> Ok, thanks.
[06:56] <Kubuntu> I never knew the password
[06:56] <vox754> Bassetts, I suggest you read "man grub-install", and I'll give you a few tips.
[06:56] <Kubuntu> I can't even remember installiing mysql
[06:57] <Bassetts> vox754, --root-directory=/boot /dev/sda3 ??
[06:57] <Rug> Kubuntu: have you read the Docs for using Mysql?
[06:57] <Kubuntu> No
[06:57] <Rug> RTFM
[06:57] <Kubuntu> Where is it?
[06:57] <kmasta> how do I mannually the repos I download from?
[06:58] <tarzeau> Rug: rtfm is forbidden here
[06:58] <qnyc> kmasta, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/
[06:58] <vox754> Bassetts, First you need to make sure the current Feisty is the one mounted. The "device" referenced is /dev/sda  without partition, that is the Master Boot record.
[06:58] <INIT_6_> what is the best way to capture some errors when I run fsck? I tried to > error.log  but didn't work
[06:58] <Bassetts> vox754, i am in fiesty
[06:58] <Escapation> Heya, Can somebody help me preparing my installation needs for Ubuntu on an old Apple Imac (G3)
[06:58] <tarzeau> INIT_6_: it didn't work? what happened? also redirect stderr?
[06:59] <DanaG> Does anybody know how to get Amarok to run specific scripts at startup?
[06:59] <INIT_6_> it output fsck and the version. gave me a error on the screen saying need terminal for inertactive repair
[06:59] <mindtzar> The installer from the latest Ubuntu download is having problems reformating the HDD running, it keeps telling me that it cant unmount it. and just before it does open it in the file explorer
[06:59] <Rug> DanaG: there should be an option to "run at startup" in the script manager
[07:00] <mindtzar> i trued manually unmounting it beforehand but no luck
[07:00] <mindtzar> its worth noting the HDD is set to slave
[07:00] <Dr_willis> Escapation,  bigest issue i have with my imacDV is getting the cd to boot. had to go to the firmware and tweak somthing to get it to work
[07:01] <KillerBeeFoo> DCC SEND 1234567891011121314
[07:01] <INIT_6_> tarzeau when you say redirect stderr? meaning what?
[07:01] <NET||abuse> hmm, I was just interested in trying out the new compiz-fusion there,, just had a little issue with the instructions over on the forums,, they say to apt-get remove compiz-core desktop-effects  ,, but even just desktop-effects on it's own with either apt-get or aptitude tries to remove ubuntu-desktop.. and that's something i REALLY don't think i should do :) anyone else know why this is happening or what i should try?
[07:01] <vox754> Bassetts, grub should be able to boot without problems any os. Probably you just need a proper "menu.lst" listing both oses. You could "update-grub" and "grub-install", but maybe copying your old menu.lst to the gusty /boot/grub may solve it.
[07:01] <tarzeau> INIT_6_: if you got bash just use &> somefile
[07:01] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> how do I install mysql?
[07:02] <NET||abuse> e3yhw45yerhg4yer, sudo aptitude install mysql5
[07:02] <Bassetts> vox754, thanks
[07:02] <Jun> Gnea: Is it a better idea to change my vga to a newer version or any other brand?
[07:02] <cyberg7358> My Pan News reader has crashed on my last two Installation. It will not run after I restart the machine and after reinstallation.
[07:02] <tarzeau> Jun: nvidia?
[07:02] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "mysql5"
[07:02] <tarzeau> cyberg7358: maybe it's got some lockfiles left over?
[07:02] <NET||abuse> cyberg7358, run the reader from command then have a look at what output comes out..
[07:02] <DanaG> I don't see "run at startup".
[07:03] <DanaG> If it's just that it's missing in Gutsy, I'll file a bug.
[07:03] <NET||abuse> e3yhw45yerhg4yer, sorry, mysql-server-5.0
[07:03] <cyberg7358> Thanks
[07:03] <NET||abuse> DanaG, where are you looking for startup?
[07:03] <Jun> tarzeau: Yes nvidia geforce 2 mx 100/200. displays line traces in my screen...
[07:04] <nomic> it's right for your wireless to show up on wlan0 yes?
[07:04] <Dr_willis> cyberg7358,  Pan has always seemed to be a little flakey.. not sure why. :(
[07:04] <NET||abuse> nomic, yes, that's normal.. what chipset are you on?
[07:04] <DanaG> In script manager.
[07:04] <NET||abuse> nomic, run lspci and find the wifi card..
[07:04] <INIT_6_> tarzeau, that didn't work either. it's cool, I will just type everything up not that long of a error message. thanks thou for the help.
[07:04] <nomic> rtl8187 net||abuse
[07:05] <NET||abuse> hmm, rtl,, what make is that.. not familiar with the name..
[07:05] <DanaG> It's not in right-click on script, and it's not a button.
[07:05] <nomic> realtek net||abuse
[07:05] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> mysql-server-5.0 is already the newest version.
[07:05] <NET||abuse> nomic, yeh, thought it would be realtek
[07:05] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> How do I configure it?
[07:05] <nomic> it's a usb dongle that doesn't show up on lspci yes net||abuse?
[07:05] <zabi1> is there a way to set up a mult user linux server so that mult users can have a gui?
[07:05] <NET||abuse> nomic, anyway.. if there's a device called wifi0 it'll probably be just in the /etc/network settings files..
[07:05] <nomic> right
[07:05] <ant-> nomic, use lsusb
[07:06] <NET||abuse> nomic, lspci should show up the dongle even though.. ahhh yes.. lsusb
[07:06] <cafe_> hi all
[07:06] <nomic> yep says netgear wg111 wifi (v2)
[07:06] <Shaftino> Anyone tell me what packages i need to allow for mp3 encoding from sound juicer?

[07:06] <nomic> yw
[07:06] <nomic> lol
[07:06] <zabi1> does anyone know how to set up a mult user linux server?
[07:07] <nexous> How do I go about using grep to search a specific folder?
[07:07] <NET||abuse> zabi1, oh wow... please can you be more vague?
[07:07] <NET||abuse> zabi1, the striking clarity of your question hurts my eyes.
[07:07] <zabi1> NET||abuse: have a mult user computer so that like 5 users could log into it all having their own GUI.
[07:08] <SlashLife> NET||abuse: "I tried, but it didn't work." <- better? -g-
[07:08] <NET||abuse> SlashLife, eh???
[07:08] <SlashLife> You wanted something more vague, didn't you? :/
[07:08] <SlashLife> zabi1: Get $RANDOM_WINDOW_MANAGER + $RANDOM_DESKTOP_MANAGER...
[07:08] <NET||abuse> zabi1, ok,, your run of the mill linux distro can indeed setup for multiple users through sshd, and remote sessions.. is this what you're after?
[07:09] <zabi1> NET||abuse: yes
[07:09] <SlashLife> kdm or gdm... icewm, kde, gnome, xfce, ion3, whatever, ...
[07:09] <INIT_6_> paste bin ?
[07:09] <SlashLife> *looks at the channel name* Oh... yeah. *forgot*
[07:09] <NET||abuse> zabi1, ok, install your sshd, make sure X11 forwarding is on or something,, then remote X sessions are simple
[07:09] <INIT_6_> !pastebin
[07:09] <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)
[07:09] <NET||abuse> zabi1, or else if you want you can use something like NX and make a nice remote desktop system
[07:10] <`4aFkA`> can anyone tell me the apt-get "name" for mysql 5.0 pls??

[07:17] <stefan> hi. i'm having a little issue with my graphics card (using latest xubuntu): everything works fine in general but graphics "feel" quite slow. i checked Xorg.log and it says "MGA(0): Using AGP 1x mode" even though in the BIOS setup it says 4x. could this be the reason why it feels so slow? (using a matrox g550 @ 1600x1200, btw)

[07:23] <NET||abuse> lazydog_, why is your machine asking for authentication for ntfs access in the first place.. seems odd.
[07:23] <_Ahti> NET||abuse: Its a funny joke to someone who is, but its better not to do it out loud here, in the support channel, full of newbies :)

[07:24] <lazydog_> NET abuse: beats me...it's only on my NTFS RAID disc...can I turn it off? (I'm logged on as root, so it shouldn't be a question of Authority
[07:24] <osiris_> Never had a problem with nvidia before just in the feisty release
[07:24] <NET||abuse> lazydog_, internal disk? or usb or some other attached storage?
[07:25] <lazydog_> NET abuse: Internal drive
[07:25] <thirdstrike> I just installed compiz fusion, and everyhint gseems to be workingfine..The only problem is that whenever I start a fullscreen app, whetever it's a game, video etc, it starts up with an x percent opacity.... So its pretty annoying trying to play warsow when you can "see through" the game and onto your desktop
[07:25] <aabrahao> where Can I find kernel-headers-2.4.27-1-686
[07:25] <aabrahao> ?
[07:25] <lazydog_> NET abuse: SATA btw
[07:25] <thirdstrike> does anyone know where in the settings i can fix it? turn the opacity thing off
[07:26] <Gnea> thirdstrike: ask in #ubuntu-effects, they know
[07:26] <thirdstrike> thanks
[07:26] <dapiz987> after i installed the nvidia-glx drivers in feisty, after reboot, all i got was a black screen and the drums noise (geforce4 420 go)
[07:26] <colbert> Can I use a swap partition on a different drive than my ubuntu install?
[07:26] <qnyc> colbert, certainly
[07:26] <Gnea> colbert: yes.
[07:26] <colbert> ok
[07:27] <Gnea> dapiz987: does the version of nvidia-glx match the kernel driver version?
[07:27] <aa^way> hm any suggestions how to match up a string by regex and save output to file by terminal?
[07:28] <dapiz987> yes
[07:28] <Audiobahn> so 1140 members in here no idea how to kill all users ?
[07:28] <aa^way> echo $(grep -FE "^yo" "yoo") > match.txt but im not doing it right at all heh
[07:28] <lazydog_> NET abuse , any ideas?
[07:28] <Gnea> Audiobahn: probably not. what users?
[07:29] <_Ahti> do distribution upgrades generally work?
[07:29] <Audiobahn> again:  when i "uptime" is says 2 users connected, when i "who" or "users" only shows one connected, any idead why ?
[07:29] <Gnea> Audiobahn: because more than 1 person is logged in.
[07:30] <ryanakca> _Ahti: yes, between two consecutive versions
[07:30] <Gnea> or more than 1 account on more than 1 location
[07:30] <maximal_> I want to copy all the files from one user directory to another.  cp -r /home/user1 /home/user2 did mot copy the hidden files.  What flag do I need for cp?
[07:30] <`4aFkA`> how can i remove my sql database??
[07:30] <Audiobahn> noone else is connected !
[07:30] <dapiz987> _Ahti: always work for me, but its not las good as a fresh install of the new distro
[07:30] <Gnea> then it's just you
[07:30] <gordonjcp> `4aFkA`: depends what you mean "remove"
[07:30] <Audiobahn> why say 2 ppl then ?
[07:30] <ryanakca> _Ahti: you wouldn't be able to upgrade from dapper to feisty, rather, dapper -> edgy -> feisty
[07:30] <_Ahti> dapiz987: Ok
[07:30] <lazydog_> anyone who know how to not being forced to type in password  to enter RAID NTFS drives in Feisty?
[07:30] <Gnea> Audiobahn: what ttys is it reporting?
[07:30] <Audiobahn> how do i check ?
[07:30] <`4aFkA`> gordonjcp i want to delete that database
[07:30] <Gnea> who or w
[07:31] <_Ahti> ryanakca: Yep, know that much, but just wondering whether i'd end up with the exact same system as a fresh install from a CD
[07:31] <gordonjcp> `4aFkA`: do you mean "DROP DATABASE foo;" ?
[07:31] <Audiobahn> chris@LinuxBox:~$ who

[07:32] <Gnea> Audiobahn: thought you said it said 2 users
[07:32] <bingo> i've direct rendering: No atm, can any one help please ?
[07:32] <gordonjcp> `4aFkA`: so you'd log into the database as root, and say "DROP DATABASE joomla;"
[07:32] <Audiobahn> it does!
[07:32] <Audiobahn> lol
[07:32] <dijungal> Ubuntu + beryl ROCKS!!!
[07:32] <dijungal> just wanted to say that..
[07:32] <ryanakca> _Ahti: no, because you'd have the current packages, except the next release's version. I personally like to backup and fresh install, much safer
[07:32] <dijungal> :)
[07:32] <Gnea> Audiobahn: ok, well when you run the GUI, that counts as one login
[07:32] <Audiobahn> chris@LinuxBox:~$ uptime

[07:32] <INIT_6_> I have 4 drives, I cfdisk all of them made a pri partion and put the FS type to 0xFD for auto raid. Then I turned the 4 disk into a raid. formated it with ext3. Now, if i run cfdisk it shows all freespace no partions. is that right or should I make one in here?
[07:32] <Audiobahn> i havent got a gui :)
[07:32] <_Ahti> ryanakca: Thanks, just wanted to know :)
[07:32] <Gnea> Audiobahn: so if you're ssh'd in from your mac laptop, then that'd be 2
[07:32] <ryanakca> ubotu, please tell _Ahti about clone
[07:33] <daskidude> i have an external hdd hooked up to my laptop and why doesnt ubuntu recognize it most of hte time, i have to get get it manually each time?
[07:33] <Gnea> Audiobahn: but you're logged in and typing 'uptime' :)
[07:33] <lazydog_> ubotu: ntfs
[07:33] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[07:33] <Audiobahn> but it used to say one lol
[07:33] <Gnea> that counts as a login too
[07:33] <Audiobahn> lol...
[07:34] <Gnea> Audiobahn: if you login at the console, that counts as 1 login for each terminal
[07:34] <Gnea> man
[07:34] <Gnea> this is all n00b stuff, i should give you a url to read
[07:34] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[07:34] <Audiobahn> well im not loged in on the pc!

[07:34] <Audiobahn> is that 2 connections ?
[07:34] <edugonch> Hello, I have a question, How I can configure my ubuntu machine so I can ssh from a public IP?
[07:34] <Audiobahn> no!

[07:35] <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/

[07:36] <colbert> I have just formatted a drive into 3 partitions, 2 are intended as / and /home for a Feisty install i'm about to do, but I'd like to mount the drives on my Edgy right now. Can someone help?
[07:36] <Gnea> edaniel: turn it off, plug it in, turn it on
[07:36] <edaniel> Ill try that, brb
[07:37] <Audiobahn> !pastebin | Audiobahn
[07:37] <ryanakca> colbert: umm... why mount them? then you'd have to reformat them just in case something nasty got on them
[07:37] <daskidude> hmmm, i now see my external hdd, but i have my hard drive partitioned and i dont see the windows partition
[07:37] <Gnea> Audiobahn: http://www.linuxnewbieguide.org/
[07:37] <ryanakca> colbert: but, df, and then add the entries to /etc/fstab
[07:37] <ericrw> hello
[07:37] <Audiobahn> lol enx
[07:37] <Audiobahn> so np anw ?
[07:38] <colbert> ryanakca: What do you mean by that? They're formatted, just partitioned, empty.. ready for feisty to be installed on them..
[07:38] <Gnea> Audiobahn: what happens if you reboot it?
[07:38] <BloodHunter> hey
[07:38] <wietz0r> does the new ubuntu 7.04 disk still support text install ?
[07:38] <IndyGunFreak> why do people make separate partitions for / and /home, never understood that
[07:39] <Audiobahn> probably 1 user :)
[07:39] <IndyGunFreak> !alternate | wietz0r
[07:39] <ubotu> wietz0r: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[07:39] <wietz0r> IndyGunFreak: So you can switch distro and keep your files
[07:39] <preaction> IndyGunFreak: so you can clear / and still have /home
[07:39] <gordonjcp> IndyGunFreak: because that way you can reinstall without clobbering your homedirs
[07:39] <Gnea> Audiobahn: why don't you just do it and find out for sure? ;)
[07:39] <Audiobahn> but cant reboot
[07:39] <BloodHunter> i got a question :) ( iam linux newbie ok?^^ ) got ubuntu 7.04 and it installed gnome and if i want to install nvidia drivers it says i have to shutdown x server
[07:39] <preaction> IndyGunFreak: also if /home fills up it doesn't keep you from booting
[07:39] <BloodHunter> so how can i shut down gnome?
[07:39] <IndyGunFreak> hmm, well i love clobbering my /home when i reinstall..lol
[07:39] <ryanakca> IndyGunFreak: ah, well, saves from having to back up :) But I back up anyways
[07:39] <Audiobahn> reboots are pre-planned
[07:39] <Audiobahn> next one in 2 months
[07:40] <preaction> BloodHunter: did you try installing the drivers using Restricted Drivers Manager?
[07:40] <IndyGunFreak> i keep pretty good backups, so i can be back up and running in about an hour or so.
[07:40] <BloodHunter> no i didnt preaction
[07:40] <BloodHunter> thanks :)
[07:40] <Gnea> Audiobahn: no idea then
[07:40] <vox754> Everyone, If you want to create a /boot partition, make sure it is ext2 and at least 100 MB, that way you won't have issues with distribution upgrades
[07:40] <Audiobahn> enx
[07:40] <ryanakca> Audiobahn: it's a laptop... reboot, or let the battery die... it's not as if it's a server for the CIA...
[07:40] <Gnea> Audiobahn: maybe someone logged out and wtmp didn't update right
[07:40] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[07:40] <Gnea> ryanakca: it could be for the FBI

[07:45] <Gnea> S-_By: you need to tell windows to allow the printer to be shared out
[07:46] <ryanakca> zaggynl: you're supposed to unmount in windows too
[07:46] <zaggynl> wietz0r, I don't lose data in winxp
[07:46] <ericrw> nomic: you're looking at xscreensavers...
[07:46] <zaggynl> gotta go
[07:46] <wietz0r> zaggynl: You've been lucky
[07:46] <ericrw> nomic: jwz wrote them and "doesn't do Windows" but someone else did port them...
[07:46] <ericrw> http://tron.lir.dk/software/WinXScreensaver1.1-Install.msi
[07:46] <daskidude> i have my windows partition recognized in fstab but, i dont see it anywhere, how cna i look at it?
[07:46] <nomic> one person wrote all those screensavers?  wow
[07:46] <ericrw> nomic: there is also a port to OSX, although it crashes.
[07:47] <nomic> aha ericrw
[07:47] <ericrw> nomic: he wrote a good number of them, but many were contributed.
[07:47] <S-_By> i know but i have 3 pc with windows and 1 with ubuntu al the windows pc are connecten with the printer but my ubuntu wil not connecten
[07:47] <wietz0r> daskidude: where did you mount it ?
[07:47] <Gnea> nomic: no, different people did and they all were ported years ago
[07:47] <daskidude> wietz0r: i ran that diskmoutner thing
[07:47] <wietz0r> Can I turn off this "feature" that I type something and it isn't recognized it starts searching for the matching program ? (on the command line)
[07:47] <nomic> anyone know ... those screensavers are they written through the framebuffer?
[07:47] <ericrw> nomic:  btw, jwz wrote the mailer for Netscape 3 :P
[07:47] <wietz0r> daskidude: Is it ntfs ?
[07:47] <daskidude> yes
[07:47] <nomic> yes to my question daskidude?
[07:48] <daskidude> no, to wietz0r
[07:48] <ericrw> nomic: they're written for X11, not for the framebuffer.  Someone might've ported them, but I doubt it.
[07:48] <daskidude> wietz0r: it is an ntfs
[07:48] <wietz0r> daskidude: Do you have ntfs-3g installed ?
[07:48] <daskidude> wietz0r: i think i do, i have my ntfs external mounted and usable

[07:49] <ericrw> Shaftino, yes, but don't do that.
[07:50] <Shaftino> ericrw, Why?
[07:50] <bruenig> you will lose quality for one
[07:50] <wietz0r> ericrw: Maybe he needs it for an mp3 player ?
[07:50] <Shaftino> Exactly that :)
[07:50] <bruenig> put rockbox on it
[07:50] <ericrw> it doesn't matter *why* he wants to do it
[07:50] <Shaftino> Cant get soundjuicer to extract into mp3 :(,
[07:50] <ericrw> you're gonna kill the sound.
[07:50] <Shaftino> Rockbox is poo
[07:50] <nomic> i'm just thinking of programming through the framebuffer ericrw ... i think that will be simpler than programming through x11
[07:50] <Flannel> wietz0r: I believe it's the package "command-not-found"  just remove that package.
[07:50] <GrubChub> Thanks Hacks!
[07:50] <codin> hi
[07:50] <wietz0r> Flannel: Thank you, THANK YOU
[07:51] <GrubChub> That improved performance by a multitude :)
[07:51] <OSBC> I got a problem with my usb key. When I plug it, it's not recognized. Dmesg return me errors -32 ans that's it. It's a Corsair Voyager and it works well under windows
[07:51] <tat__> why the hell does Ubuntu has decided to mount usbfs under /dev/bus/usb and not /proc/bus/usb like eevryone elese ?
[07:51] <codin> I got the latest ubuntu installer, but it taked forever to install it, why ?
[07:51] <ericrw> nomic, if you want to do easy graphics programming, I suggest SDL.   It is easy to target and will display under X11, framebuffer,  MS Windows, etc.
[07:51] <codin> I got the CD version
[07:51] <nomic> cool ericrw i have written it down
[07:51] <codin> and the graphical installer is VERY slow
[07:52] <nomic> maybe your machine is slow codin
[07:52] <OSBC> codin: if you tried with the desktop cd, try the alternate cd
[07:52] <wietz0r> codin: Because all the ubuntu installers are slow
[07:52] <ryanakca> wietz0r: dunno
[07:52] <tat__> and all the apps who use /proc/bus&/usb nedd to be patched , thsi makes totally no sence to me !
[07:52] <wietz0r> codin: except the text mode one
[07:52] <ryanakca> codin: try the alternative installer
[07:52] <nomic> i used that was fast
[07:52] <codin> what would that be ?
[07:52] <ericrw> nomic, and if you like python, pygame is the sdl wrapper for it... the code is mostly compatable with C/C++ so its great for doing rapid development, even if you will rewrite in C/C++ later
[07:52] <codin> alternate installer ?
[07:53] <nomic> codin it has 'alternate' in the filename
[07:53] <OSBC> codin: download the alternate iso instead of the desktop iso
[07:53] <codin> the machine is a P4 2.8 GHz
[07:53] <codin> how can I do it in text mode ?
[07:53] <GrubChub> http://www.ionpixel.com/browser_speed.html
[07:53] <Flannel> codin: how much RAM?
[07:53] <nomic> how much RAM codin?
[07:53] <OSBC> codin: download the alternate iso instead of the desktop iso
[07:53] <codin> 256
[07:53] <wietz0r> codin: download debian
[07:53] <nomic> ty ericrw
[07:53] <Flannel> codin: that's why it's running slow.  The liveCD is a memory hog.  Your system (once installed) will run fine though.
[07:54] <wietz0r> sup yrjan
[07:54] <codin> how can I go text mode ?
[07:54] <yrjan> wietz0r: hi wietz0r
[07:54] <OSBC> codin: alternate
[07:54] <wietz0r> codin: Download alternative installer cd, and it'll go automatically
[07:54] <codin> that means another ISO ?
[07:54] <OSBC> yep
[07:54] <codin> mm ....
[07:54] <codin> nope
[07:54] <Flannel> codin: yes.  Your desktop CD will install fine, just a smidge sluggish
[07:55] <wietz0r> "smidge"
[07:55] <codin> the desktop one does not have a text mode installer ?
[07:55] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> I want mysql to run? How=
[07:55] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> ?
[07:55] <clay_the_arc> Any1 here able to help me with an error? i'm stuck in CLI, alt+ctrl+f7 do nothing, once i type GDM it says "error while lloading shared libraries: libxau.so.6 cannot open shared object file: input/output error"
[07:55] <OSBC> Flannel: not everytime, I had to do my install with the alternate. THe desktop didn't wanted to install for a reason unknown
[07:55] <Flannel> codin: correct
[07:55] <Flannel> OSBC: For him, even slow, the desktop installer works.
[07:56] <codin> ok, thank you guys for the information
[07:56] <daskidude> i just realized that my exernal that i just mounted is only read only and i need to write to it so i can backup some stuff from my windows partition that doesnt boot into windows anymore that i can't access
[07:56] <OSBC> How can you tell ?
[07:56] <clay_the_arc> Any1 here able to help me with an error? i'm stuck in CLI, alt+ctrl+f7 do nothing, once i type GDM it says "error while lloading shared libraries: libxau.so.6 cannot open shared object file: input/output error"
[07:57] <taa> please can anyone help me to install aiglx (radeon open source ati drivers) ?
[07:57] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> it says
[07:57] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer>  * Starting MySQL database server mysqld
[07:57] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer>    ...fail!
[07:57] <wietz0r> daskidude: You need ntfs-3g
[07:57] <wietz0r> daskidude: google it
[07:57] <OSBC> Anyone knows about strange errors with usb mass storage ?
[07:58] <clay_the_arc> Any1 here able to help me with an error? i'm stuck in CLI, alt+ctrl+f7 do nothing, once i type GDM it says "error while lloading shared libraries: libxau.so.6 cannot open shared object file: input/output error"
[07:58] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> no
[07:58] <wietz0r> OSBC: Strange as in ?
[07:58] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, what did you do to your system?  You're missing a library.
[07:58] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, ubuntu won't do that by default,  you must've done something.
[07:59] <OSBC> wietz0r:  Strange as it's not recognized if I plug it while ubuntu running, but it works if I plug it before starting the computer (before grub is launched)
[07:59] <GrubChub> http://www.ionpixel.com/browser_speed.html
[07:59] <ericrw> (or your filesystem is massively corrupted ;-)
[07:59] <clay_the_arc> ericrw, it just stopped after i updated steam and firefox
[07:59] <INIT_6_> Thinking, When you go into cfdisk and create a partion and set the type and you hit write then quit. Is it still doing things to the drive when you quit? if so, Is there a way to look at the status?
[08:00] <wietz0r> OSBC: dmesg says nothing ?
[08:00] <clay_the_arc> ericrw
[08:00] <OSBC> wietz0r: he says device descriptor read/64 error -32 and device reject adress
[08:00] <clay_the_arc> i'm running xp and ubuntu dual os
[08:00] <clay_the_arc> could that cause it?
[08:00] <edaniel> I tried restarting and my USB mouse still does not work.
[08:01] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, dual boot has nothing to do with it, and steam isn't a Linux application.
[08:01] <wietz0r> OSBC: plug it in and run "rmmod ehci_hcd && rmmod uhci_hcd && modprobe ehci_hcd && modprobe uhci_hcd
[08:01] <wietz0r> that works when my external fucks up
[08:01] <OSBC> ok i tried that
[08:01] <OSBC> try*
[08:01] <fivetwentysix> How come i can't change my screen resoulution?
[08:02] <wietz0r> fivetwentysix: xorg.conf
[08:02] <fivetwentysix> When i run starcraft it tells me to use 640x480 and switch to 256 colors
[08:03] <clay_the_arc> ericrw, it just stopped working
[08:03] <wietz0r> fivetwentysix: then define 640x480 in your xorg.conf, run xorgcfg -textmode in a terminal
[08:04] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, did you upgrade from etch to feisty, or are you running Warty?
[08:04] <wietz0r> fivetwentysix: And google around a bit before
[08:04] <clay_the_arc> ericrw, i'm on the default ubuntu 6 w/e that is
[08:04] <clay_the_arc> :|
[08:04] <fivetwentysix> bash: xorgcfg: command not found
[08:04] <sluimers> Hey there! I have problems getting my printer to work
[08:04] <nabster> hi everybody
[08:04] <sluimers> Can someone help me with that?
[08:05] <sluimers> to work in Ubuntu that is of course.
[08:05] <Cromag> !ask
[08:05] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)

[08:05] <sluimers> !ask
[08:05] <nabster> is there en extra ubuntustudio chan?
[08:05] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, you can try 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' to see if you have an incomplete upgrade.
[08:05] <clay_the_arc> ericrw
[08:05] <clay_the_arc> i don'thave an internet connection
[08:06] <Cromag> funny
[08:06] <clay_the_arc> i was downloading drivers for my modem
[08:06] <OSBC> wietz0r: nope, don't work. I get the errors -32
[08:06] <clay_the_arc> uploading to my ext HDD
[08:06] <fivetwentysix> wietz0r command not found
[08:06] <clay_the_arc> then when i restarted, it was in CLI
[08:06] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, modems don't need drivers -- unless you have a win-modem, in which case - don't bother
[08:06] <wietz0r> OSBC: what is the entire error ?
[08:06] <daskidude> i accidently mounted it to a bad place, how can i undo that?
[08:06] <clay_the_arc> ericrw, i need gnome PPP rather, not nessecarily drivers
[08:06] <wietz0r> daskidude: umount /path/to/mountspot
[08:07] <paritosh_> are there any good repositories for feisty? i cant find even the most trivial software on my enabled repositories..
[08:07] <wietz0r> daskidude: or umount /dev/to/devices
[08:07] <wietz0r> paritosh_: As in?
[08:07] <OSBC> wietz0r: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27047/
[08:07] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, what device is your root filesystem on?
[08:07] <wietz0r> paritosh_: Did you enable universe multiverse etcetera
[08:07] <clay_the_arc> ericrw, ext3
[08:07] <ericrw> *device*
[08:07] <paritosh_> wietz0r: mp3 codecs, opera
[08:07] <cafe_> !iso
[08:07] <ubotu> 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.
[08:07] <wietz0r> paritosh_: google ubuntuguide
[08:08] <paritosh_> wietz0r: yeah all the repos except source code are enabled
[08:08] <daskidude> wietz0r: it keeps telling me:  unmount: command not found
[08:08] <ZeroXR> sudo umount
[08:08] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, /dev/hda*, /dev/sda*, etc?
[08:08] <OSBC> daskidude: umount not unmount
[08:08] <ZeroXR> not unmount
[08:08] <wietz0r> daskidude: there is no N in umount
[08:08] <clay_the_arc> oh
[08:08] <clay_the_arc> hda
[08:08] <daskidude> wietz0r: oh, lol
[08:08] <ericrw> run:  sudo badblocks -sv /dev/hda
[08:08] <wietz0r> OSBC: rmmod ehci_hcd and replug it ?
[08:08] <OSBC> wietz0r: there is a N < umouNt > :p
[08:08] <taa> no one knows how to install radeon open source drivers ?
[08:08] <ericrw> let it run for a few hours, see if it returns anything.
[08:09] <fivetwentysix> wietz0r what should i do theres no xorgcfg command
[08:09] <clay_the_arc> ericrw, its hda
[08:09] <ferronica> how can i find my posted messages in ubuntu forums ???
[08:09] <wilrecar77> it says on the ubuntu website that if i install the xubuntu-desktop package it will "morph" into xubuntu. does this replace the reg ubuntu files with the xubuntu ones or just add them
[08:09] <wietz0r> wilrecar77: add
[08:09] <OSBC> wietz0r: exactly the same, but with ohci_hcd
[08:09] <ericrw> clay_the_arc,  run:  sudo badblocks -sv /dev/hda
[08:09] <Gnea> ferronica: google
[08:09] <clay_the_arc> M'Kay
[08:09] <wietz0r> OSBC: wtb, what happens if you rmmod ohci_hcd ?
[08:10] <wilrecar77> ok. id like to replace them though. is there any way to do that(as in command line actions)
[08:10] <codin> where can I get an alternate install ISO from ?
[08:10] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, it will print the status, showing the currently testing block and the number of blocks.
[08:10] <ferronica> Gnea: google ???
[08:10] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, when it finishes, it *should* appear to have printed nothing, returning to hte prompt
[08:10] <wietz0r> wilrecar77: Yes, you can purge gnome and the like but meh
[08:10] <Gnea> ferronica: www.google.com  you've never heard of it?!
[08:10] <codin> http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download <-- there are only desktop and server release
[08:10] <OSBC> wietz0r: i modprobe ehci_hcd or not ?
[08:10] <wilrecar77> ok
[08:10] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, if it finishes and returns any numbers... then you have a bad harddrive
[08:10] <wietz0r> OSBC: http://www.mepis.org/node/5860
[08:10] <wilrecar77> thanks for the help
[08:10] <wietz0r> I'm not sure if it's helpful
[08:10] <wietz0r> wilrecar77: I wouldn't do it, it can break stuff

[08:11] <Gnea> !alternative | codin
[08:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about alternative - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:11] <ferronica> Gnea: i know
[08:11] <Gnea> wtf
[08:11] <clay_the_arc> if it returns numbers, then reinstall?
[08:11] <Gnea> !alternate | codin
[08:11] <ubotu> codin: 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
[08:11] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> Anyone knows how I can make Mysql work?
[08:11] <vox754> codin, "Check here if you need the alternate desktop CD. This CD does not include the Live CD, instead it uses a text-based installer."
[08:11] <Gnea> !mysql | e3yhw45yerhg4yer
[08:11] <ubotu> e3yhw45yerhg4yer: 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+)
[08:12] <clay_the_arc> ericrwc if it returns numbers, then reinstall?
[08:12] <clay_the_arc> ericrw*
[08:12] <wilrecar77> ok. id just like to install xubuntu 7.04 and when the update manager tried to from 6.10( on xubuntu) the screen about the RAID stuff wouldnt accept the enter key for ok
[08:12] <fivetwentysix> Why can't i switch screen resolutions?
[08:12] <fivetwentysix> When I run Starcraft it says it can't switch video mode
[08:12] <Gnea> !minimal | codin
[08:12] <tombar> !php4
[08:12] <ubotu> codin: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[08:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about php4 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:12] <wietz0r> fivetwentysix: Because you're xorg.conf isn't setup properly for different resolutions
[08:12] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, if it prints numbers, buy a new harddrive.
[08:13] <fivetwentysix> wietz0r so how do I set it up properly?
[08:13] <codin> is there a way to install it from the net direclty ?
[08:13] <wietz0r> fivetwentysix: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=169674
[08:13] <clay_the_arc> ericrw, its the same 1 i run XP on

[08:14] <crocodile> hey guys with compiz fusion, I can enable and disable all the features but how do I actually use some of them?  Cube for example, is there a hotkey to open the cube?

[08:14] <taa> can any one help me with glxinfo | grep "direct rendering" NO !!
[08:14] <OSBC> wietz0r:  ubuntu recognize it like a "music reader" instead of a usb storage key
[08:14] <wietz0r> crocodile: both mousekeys + drag
[08:15] <wietz0r> OSBC: As in some software starts up ?
[08:15] <CptAJ[ve] > could someone point me to the ALSA configuration files?
[08:15] <OSBC> wietz0r: yep, like rhythmbox
[08:15] <crocodile> wietz0r: is there something I can read to see all the hotkeys for each feature?
[08:15] <Gnea> e3yhw45yerhg4yer: you don't, just tell mysql what socket file to use and it'll create it on its own when you restart
[08:15] <OSBC> wietz0r: and it scans the disk for nothing
[08:15] <wietz0r> crocodile: type compiz in terminal and press tab and look around
[08:15] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> But I can't do that!
[08:15] <boi1555> :-(
[08:15] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> it wont make one
[08:15] <wietz0r> OSBC: Maybe you can configure it in rhythmbox itself ?
[08:15] <sluimers> I want to install a smartbase Canon MP360 printer, can someone help me with that? All I know is that it's best to choose a Canon S600 as the driver and I can add printers in Turboprint and localhost:631. I don't know which device I should choose nor the URI.

[08:19] <Gnea> e3yhw45yerhg4yer: in /var/log? that can't be right, unless they're gzipped
[08:19] <wietz0r> crocodile: tried #compiz ?
[08:19] <OSBC> wietz0r: indeed, found. I've been looking in the past but I didn't saw it
[08:19] <crocodile> nope, I'll do that
[08:19] <wietz0r> OSBC: No problem, everything works now ?
[08:19] <CptAJ[ve] > fourth time asking... where are the ALSA configuration files?
[08:19] <wietz0r> CptAJ[ve] : There aren't any
[08:19] <OSBC> wietz0r: you're a god. Yep everuthing works all right ;)
[08:19] <shawn34> Gnea, on a different server? cause no one is in that room on freenode
[08:20] <CptAJ[ve] > wietz0r: Then how do I change the default sound card? I have 2. Linux uses the wrong one.
[08:20] <wietz0r> capgadget: Type "alsaconf"
[08:20] <OSBC> wietz0r: err... no, rhythmbox keep on scanning the key
[08:20] <Gnea> shawn34: how about the kino discussion forum?
[08:20] <wietz0r> OSBC: Do you use rhythmbox ?
[08:20] <OSBC> yep
[08:21] <BloodHunter> hi
[08:21] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> When I open them in kate it says they are binary files.
[08:21] <greg__> how i mount cd manually ?
[08:21] <wietz0r> Damn, my next suggestion was going to be "aptitude purge rhythmbox"
[08:21] <NeoGeo64> Kino sucks.
[08:21] <wietz0r> greg__: with the mount command
[08:21] <BloodHunter> hm
[08:21] <nny> how do i manually add a gpg key for apt?
[08:21] <wietz0r> OSBC: The second tab
[08:21] <Gnea> NeoGeo64: no.
[08:21] <BloodHunter> how can i login as root ( so i got root rights in gnome )
[08:21] <OSBC> wietz0r: with the live-cd, the key is recognized as a mass storage, maybe i've messed with something but don't know why
[08:21] <OSBC> *what
[08:21] <CptAJ[ve] >  wietz0r: No manual entry for alsaconf
[08:21] <AidyMole> seargeant aids fer help!
[08:21] <Gnea> NeoGeo64: what's better then?
[08:21] <wietz0r> OSBC: on the storage one
[08:21] <NeoGeo64> The only reason to use Kino is if you have a DV cam, its not for editing AVI, MPG, or WMV files.
[08:21] <greg__> wietz0r, whats the full command?
[08:21] <wietz0r> greg__: mount /dev/cdrom /path/to/mountspot
[08:22] <Shaftino> !root | BloodHunter
[08:22] <ubotu> BloodHunter: 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
[08:22] <Gnea> NeoGeo64: you are mistaken.
[08:22] <sluimers> !root
[08:22] <NeoGeo64> I had no luck trying to use it.
[08:22] <BloodHunter> eh lol
[08:22] <BloodHunter> iam not very familiar with the terminal yet
[08:22] <AidyMole> BloodHunter: you can make a root account
[08:22] <wietz0r> sluimers: wat is er ?
[08:22] <Gnea> NeoGeo64: it depends what video files you feed it, it doesn't read everything
[08:22] <BloodHunter> how
[08:22] <BloodHunter> ?
[08:22] <NeoGeo64> I tried opening up some AVI files and it said it couldn't open it.
[08:22] <OSBC> wietz0r: yep, i've unticked it, but if I launch rhythmbox, it is scanning the key whatever
[08:22] <acojlo> anyone from finland?
[08:22] <Gnea> right
[08:22] <BloodHunter> if i enter : root ( in the login shell ) it says i cant login in this login shell
[08:22] <sluimers> wietz0r, niets, ik wacht totdat ik geholpen kan worden.
[08:23] <Gnea> NeoGeo64: it should open mpeg4 files just fine
[08:23] <Shaftino> BloodHunter, use 'su'
[08:23] <wietz0r> sluimers: With what ?
[08:23] <Flannel> BloodHunter: you don't need the root account.  alt-f2, `gksu nautilus`  and then close it as soon as you're done with it.
[08:23] <AidyMole> BloodHunter: it's impossible to log into gnome as root if you don't have a root user
[08:23] <sluimers> wietz0r, mijn printer
[08:23] <NeoGeo64> with a video editor, it needs to be able to read any file i give to it and i have all the w32 codecs installed in my box
[08:23] <inthepit> my root terminal freezes up when i try to start it.  anyone know of a way to fix this issue?
[08:23] <wietz0r> sluimers: Tried #ubuntu-nl ? or #cups ?
[08:23] <Gnea> NeoGeo64: well, tell that to the legal department.
[08:23] <Flannel> !fi | acojlo
[08:23] <ubotu> acojlo: Suomenkielinen keskustelu (K)Ubuntusta kanavilla #ubuntu-fi ja #kubuntu-fi
[08:23] <greg__> whats the full command to mount cd?
[08:23] <sluimers> wietz0r, ubuntu-nl al geprobeerd cups nog niet
[08:23] <acojlo> !fi
[08:23] <BloodHunter> thanks
[08:23] <BloodHunter> thats what i wanted
[08:23] <BloodHunter> :P
[08:23] <Gnea> NeoGeo64: otherwise, suggest another video editor
[08:24] <NeoGeo64> But I have tried opening non DV files in Kino and it flat out won't open them saying they're not DV files.
[08:24] <NeoGeo64> Gnea; Any suggestions :)
[08:24] <AidyMole> BloodHunter: sudo passwd -u root
[08:24] <wietz0r> inthepit: start a regular terminal and sudo su
[08:24] <AidyMole> i think
[08:24] <Gnea> NeoGeo64: LOL that's what i thought
[08:24] <wietz0r> AidyMole: sudo su and then passwd
[08:24] <aa^way> hm any suggestions how to match up a string by regex and save output to file by terminal?
[08:24] <sluimers> wietz0r, jij hebt ook geen verstand van Canon printers op Ubuntu?
[08:24] <aa^way> echo $(grep -FE "^yo" "yoo") > match.txt but im not doing it right at all heh
[08:24] <AidyMole> wietz0r: okay that's exactly the same
[08:24] <Flannel> AidyMole, wietz0r, please don't reocmmend that here.  BloodHunter, there's no reason to do that.
[08:24] <wietz0r> sluimers: Nope, geen flauw idee
[08:25] <AidyMole> Flannel: ah okay didn't know there was a policy thing
[08:25] <AidyMole> Flannel: but yes it's quite stupid to log in as root with your DE
[08:25] <Daveyboy> how do i remove php5 and install php4 completely
[08:25] <Gnea> shawn34: anyway, they buried the forums on the website a level due to spamming - click on the FAQ link to get there
[08:25] <wietz0r> Daveyboy: aptitude purge php5
[08:25] <inthepit> thanks
[08:25] <NeoGeo64> Gnea: Any other good video editors for ubuntu
[08:25] <boi1555> anyone know how do pull up gesture preferences (as in os x)?
[08:25] <Flannel> Daveyboy: Which version of ubuntu?
[08:25] <tarzeau> NeoGeo64: tried cinelerra?
[08:26] <NeoGeo64> something a little more along the lines of WMM, which is what im used to
[08:26] <Daveyboy> wietz0r, thanks
[08:26] <fivetwentysix> Crap
[08:26] <fivetwentysix> I figured out how to change my resolution
[08:26] <NeoGeo64> tarzeau: I've heard of it, but cannot find a place to download it, and its not in the repos.
[08:26] <fivetwentysix> ihave to do it in nvidia-settings
[08:26] <shawn34> Gnea, gscanbus detects my JVC and I can control the playback function with it from pc. Its just this issue with Kino, I kow the cam work with linux now
[08:26] <OSBC> wietz0r: I should find how ubuntu says a device is a music reader or a mass storage
[08:26] <fivetwentysix> However now my resolution is 640x480
[08:26] <tarzeau> NeoGeo64: make a package yourself. it's on the internet
[08:26] <fivetwentysix> I can't see anything and change my resolution back
[08:27] <NeoGeo64> tarzeau: What's it like?  Is it any good?
[08:27] <NeoGeo64> tarzeau:  I couldn't find any screenshots of it running.
[08:27] <tarzeau> NeoGeo64: it's like a, uh, good video editor
[08:27] <tarzeau> NeoGeo64: run it and make the screenshots?
[08:27] <Daveyboy> flannnel, 6.06
[08:27] <Gnea> shawn34: mkay, i've never used a dv cam with it before so i'm not entirely sure how to help you out with that
[08:27] <tarzeau> NeoGeo64: http://images.google.com/images?um=1&tab=wi&client=iceweasel-a&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&rls=org.debian%3Aen-US%3Aunofficial&q=cinelerra
[08:27] <NeoGeo64> I like to look @ screenshots before I download it.
[08:28] <rburton> are there business card/usb stick netinstall images of feisty?
[08:28] <Gnea> tarzeau: good afternoon
[08:28] <tarzeau> Gnea: good evening
[08:28] <Flannel> !minimal | rburton
[08:28] <ubotu> rburton: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[08:28] <rburton> woo
[08:28] <rburton> Flannel: thanks
[08:28] <NeoGeo64> I will check out cinerella.  I'll need to compile it from source?
[08:28] <tarzeau> NeoGeo64: yes
[08:28] <rburton> Flannel: i can never find it :)
[08:28] <tarzeau> NeoGeo64: unless you send me a lemon cake to make the pkg for you
[08:28] <Flannel> Daveyboy: Alright.  You have php4 (although, I think it's in universe).  Just remove php5 and install php4
[08:28] <NeoGeo64> ok i have build-essential, do i need anything else to compile code
[08:28] <NeoGeo64> tarzeau: lol
[08:29] <tarzeau> NeoGeo64: yes, read their documentation
[08:29] <tarzeau> NeoGeo64: i was serious
[08:29] <NeoGeo64> lol
[08:29] <tarzeau> rofl
[08:29] <NeoGeo64> lemon cake? is that any good? arent lemons sour?
[08:29] <NeoGeo64> you should try a key lime pie.
[08:29] <tarzeau> NeoGeo64: i like lemon cake
[08:29] <NeoGeo64> if you like tart treats
[08:31] <NeoGeo64> hmm
[08:31] <Gnea> hrmmm
[08:31] <NeoGeo64> Is it just me or does Linux seem to need more CPU time to render pages in Firefox than under Windows.
[08:31] <OldPink> Hi All
[08:31] <Sika> Hi
[08:31] <xav35> hi
[08:31] <roddersg> Hi all
[08:31] <tarzeau> NeoGeo64: possible
[08:31] <xav35> i am french
[08:32] <Gnea> *headdesk*
[08:32] <wietz0r> xav35: /join #ubuntu-fr
[08:32] <roddersg> I have a question on Fiesty regarding cdr-dvdr burning, can anyone help?
[08:32] <jude> hey how do i remove genome?
[08:32] <NeoGeo64> Yeah, I think so.  When I try and play flash videos on youtube and browse the web around in another tab, the flash file will skip around a good bit. that doesnt happen on windows.
[08:32] <NeoGeo64> I wonder why
[08:32] <wietz0r> jude: aptitude purge gnome
[08:32] <rayden> join #gnome.pl
[08:32] <bluefox83> NeoGeo64, the firefox in ubuntu is not optimized, you should check out the optimizations in the forum
[08:32] <xav35> wietor>thanks
[08:33] <NeoGeo64> bluefox83, ok
[08:33] <roddersg> I just can't get fiesty to burn any cdrom/dvds (I'm using fiesy amd64) has anyone a solution?
[08:33] <Talaman72> does anyone know the link for the compatibility list?
[08:33] <jude> can any one tell me why my pc frizin severy time i try to log into geome
[08:34] <smeierjr> Hello all
[08:34] <NeoGeo64> That's saying the win32 binary is optimized?
[08:34] <wietz0r> jude: because your pc is too slow ?
[08:34] <jude> i don't think so
[08:34] <jude> i got 512
[08:35] <NeoGeo64> Firefox has plenty of RAM space to stretch out its legs.
[08:35] <wietz0r> jude: Could you login before ?
[08:35] <jude> yea
[08:35] <NeoGeo64> it will eat up 100mb of ram easy
[08:35] <wietz0r> jude: try this in the terminal "mkdir dotfile-old && mv ~/.* dotfile-old"
[08:35] <wietz0r> and see if you can login again
[08:35] <wietz0r> if you can, slowly start placing stuff back
[08:36] <jude> u think if i remove it an install it again it would work?
[08:36] <pop> hey does anyone know shorewall?
[08:36] <pop> i can't remember if it serves out ip addresses or if i need to run dhcpd seperately
[08:36] <jude> k thinks
[08:36] <jude> thanks**
[08:36] <Gnea> !shorewall | pop
[08:36] <ubotu> pop: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[08:36] <ompaul> Talaman72, there is none, what have you got?
[08:36] <Gnea> pop: afaik, dhcpd is separate
[08:36] <pop> that's not really helpful
[08:36] <pop> gnea; thanks!
[08:37] <OldPink> Anyone tried my "smaller menu" adjustments? I think I've nailed it now
[08:37] <kraut> moin
[08:37] <roddersg> can anyone advise on cdr/dvdr burning?
[08:37] <Talaman72> there is none? i saw one the other day, just can't find it again
[08:37] <NeoGeo64> I don't need a firewall.  I'm behind a NAT.
[08:37] <jude> dinn't do nothing
[08:37] <Talaman72> dang it, should have e-mailed it from work
[08:37] <OldPink> I meant http://www.mbhoy.com/15-06-2007/smaller-neater-menus-in-ubuntu
[08:37] <ompaul> Talaman72, join my club I can't find one, what hardware are you looking at>

[08:50] <littlebob> no desktop
[08:50] <Super_Cat_Frog> spangle: dunno, should do, its just the normal nvidia drivers, but package in a way that plays nicely with ubuntu
[08:51] <Gnea> xcd: sudo hal-device
[08:51] <Shaftino> spangle, I think that requires the beta drivers and im not to sure how you install them
[08:51] <w30> xcd: I dono, go to /proc and look around in there. less /proc/device etc.
[08:51] <Neko_o> little bob, try: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[08:51] <scary> Gnea: 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01)
[08:51] <paritosh> i am getting an error while updating the multiverse repo :S. so i can't find the libxine-extracodec package there
[08:51] <Gnea> scary: what module is loaded?
[08:51] <erUSUL> Leo89: kylix is a little bit outdated i do not think that it will work in any modern distro...
[08:51] <sluimers> Does anyone here have experience in making canon printers work in Ubuntu?
[08:52] <littlebob> i used the netboot version and it gave me a choice to install the desktop, ill try that thanks
[08:52] <skenmy> Okay, we'll try with the actual issue im having. I'm being dumped to BusyBox on a fresh 7.04 install. No amount of fiddling with the toptions in the GRUB boot menu avoids this - it's exactly the same as the issue in this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=279884
[08:52] <scary> Gnea: I just installed the newest alsa drivers with help from #alsa, but it didn't load at start-up
[08:52] <Daveyboy> why is php4 still showing when doing 'whereis php4' after i did a apt-get remove php4?
[08:52] <erUSUL> Leo89: try lazarus http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/
[08:52] <Gnea> scary: did you install them the ubuntu-way?
[08:53] <Flannel> Daveyboy: you need to apt-get remove --purge php4, to remove all the config files and stuff
[08:53] <scary> Gnea:  I tried that first, I couldn't get it to load so I installed from source
[08:53] <Daveyboy> flannel , okay thanks
[08:53] <littlebob> sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start          so this will start the desktop?
[08:53] <scary> Gnea: http://pastebin.ca/587616
[08:54] <Gnea> scary: bad move.
[08:54] <scary> why?
[08:54] <scary> Gnea:  why does that make any difference?
[08:54] <ericleblanc> hi
[08:54] <antonioabdulio> do you know where are the multimedia settings??
[08:55] <Gnea> scary: it makes ALL the difference - installing from source only breaks the base ubuntu sound system - if you upgrade later on, it could overwrite those files
[08:55] <littlebob> it is this computer so i got to go
[08:55] <Daveyboy> flannel , okay thanks, but did that command and still there in whereis, apt said php4 is not installed so not removed
[08:55] <mokomull> I'm having trouble with Gnome in Ubuntu... it doesn't like global shortcuts with Mod4, which it doesn't trap.
[08:55] <mike> Anyone want to point me to a recent forum discussion about the 'best' torrent client? thanks :)
[08:55] <skenmy> Anyone? This is a rather annoying issue.
[08:55] <Gnea> scary: you'd be in worse shape then
[08:56] <Leo89> Guys, is there good C/C++ IDE for Linux? For example, from Borland/CodeGear
[08:56] <iTurtle> Leo89: anjuta
[08:56] <Gnea> scary: unless, of course, you installed the source properly
[08:56] <Gnea> scary: and i'm not sure what methods you've tried
[08:56] <iTurtle> Leo89: you can get it from add/remove
[08:56] <eljak> Leo89, kdevelop
[08:56] <scary> Gnea: I followed the instructions from the ubuntu wiki
[08:56] <iTurtle> eljak: that's for kde
[08:56] <Gnea> scary: the proper way to do it in ubuntu is this way: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting

[08:59] <Nalleman> Gnea, no problem.
[08:59] <SlashLife> ... a friend of mine seems to have the same problem, but I can't find any fix in the topics URLs... Would you mind pointing me to the URL where the fixing information is?
[08:59] <demian> hi I'm looking for the logon sound for breezy, I like the tune a lot better then the one in feisty. Does anyone know where I can get it?
[08:59] <mike> he didnt did he? :P
[09:00] <Gnea> Nalleman: hrm, what sort of fps do you get from glxgears?
[09:00] <nalioth> SlashLife: /msg ubotu exploit
[09:00] <juan278> how do i pair a phone with ubuntu? it keeps asking for a passkey

[09:01] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:01] <greg_g> skenmy, ignore that
[09:01] <Gnea> Nalleman: ok... you said assault cube is one of the games?
[09:01] <Lamego> mike, I know there are changes related to that problem, at least it is on the changelog
[09:01] <imachine> question: i'm trying to obtain sources for the ubuntu kernel in some international fasion, where would I find them ?
[09:01] <imachine> I need a list of patches preferably.
[09:01] <skenmy> greg_g - I can't - it dumps me into BusyBox (ash) and won't proceed further.
[09:01] <Daveyboy> whereis is still showing php4 after 'apt-get remove --purge php4'
[09:01] <nalioth> mike: join #deluge and ask
[09:01] <Nalleman> Gnea, yes its works ok. but flight gear is like shit

[09:02] <crimsun> antonioabdulio: open Applications> Accessories> Terminal, then type: alsamixer
[09:02] <Gnea> Nalleman: it's pretty tight FPS - humans vs. aliens using a modified open source quake3 backend engine
[09:03] <daftpunk> nico25_cam
[09:03] <antonioabdulio> thanks
[09:03] <Gnea> Nalleman: full online capability
[09:03] <KDan> Hello, I'm trying to open something through xvfb-run. I keep getting "Error: Can't open display: :99" error messages. /tmp/.X11-unix/X99 exists, and i tried running it under sudo so I don't think it's a permissions problem. Anyone got any idea/pointers for how I can resolve that? Couldn't find much on google unfortunately... Yes, I've also tried exporting DISPLAY (to :99 and localhost:0.0)... no joy...
[09:03] <Nalleman> Gnea, is it in the repositories?
[09:03] <Gnea> Nalleman: i think so... apt-cache search tremulous
[09:03] <burtr> Hey I was wondering if core duo is considered 64 bit?
[09:03] <justinburger> is there a way to control the power provided to a USB port? ie: ON/OFF ?
[09:03] <Lamego> bur[n] er, all core2 duo processors support 64 bits, if that is your question
[09:04] <heatman> does anyone know what version on ndiswrapper works best for Ubuntu 7.04?
[09:04] <burtr> which ubuntu would i install?
[09:04] <niuq> how can i remove splash screen?
[09:04] <burtr> the  64 or the 486?
[09:04] <edison_> ive got a problem with HAMACHI i can see my friends and they can see me but i cant ping them and they cant ping me :( can someone help me?
[09:04] <Nalleman> Gnea, i try to install it now, but its about 100 megs so it will take some minutes
[09:04] <Flannel> heatman: the one that's in the repositories.
[09:04] <Shaftino> burtr, Id install the standard non 64 bit one,
[09:04] <tarzeau> niuq: of which program?
[09:04] <burtr> thanks shaftino
[09:04] <Gnea> Nalleman: np, i'm getting AC installed now
[09:04] <Shaftino> burtr, Get some other opnions though
[09:04] <nox-Hand> Where do I change the message printed at login on my server?
[09:04] <edison_> ive got a problem with HAMACHI i can see my friends and they can see me but i cant ping them and they cant ping me :( can someone help me?
[09:05] <niuq> tarzeau: it is actually the starting splash when i log in to ubuntu
[09:05] <heatman> Flannel: dont have access to internet and apt-get cant find it on Installation CD
[09:05] <burtr> Well I have XP on here and dell didn't recomend 64 t the time (although do they ever?)
[09:05] <Lamego> niuq, install something like the startup manager
[09:05] <littlebob> ubuntu is only starting in the commandline did i do something wrong
[09:05] <OSBC> wietz0r: I've solved my problem but now, when I mount my key, i got the rights permissions but I can create a folder (example) on it with nautilus
[09:05] <Shaftino> burtr, Well i think most people would probably recommend the standard 32 bit one
[09:05] <unimatrix9> heatman : download and put on usb?
[09:05] <w30> burtr: I was reading about that; Intel says you gota have the bios updated for 64bit support but it does not say whether current motherboards are updated for 64 bit
[09:05] <Havis_> burtr: just itstall any Ubuntu :) on your hardware it should run pretty well :)
[09:05] <Talaman72> edison_,, are you using a router?
[09:06] <Flannel> heatman: thats because it was removed from the CD for some reason in feisty.  Do you have internet on any other machines?  sneakernet is the way to go.  http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/misc/ndiswrapper-utils-1.9  and http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/misc/ndiswrapper-common
[09:06] <ekso> very newbie question.... how do i get out of man? :p
[09:06] <heatman> unimatrix9: I didnt all i get is errors
[09:06] <edison_> Talaman72, yes DLink Gaming router gbit
[09:06] <crocodile> when I run emerald I get this error:         (emerald:18768): Wnck-WARNING **: Unhandled action type (nil)
[09:06] <burtr> thanks for the input
[09:06] <ekso> esc did not worked..
[09:06] <ekso> ctrl-c neither
[09:06] <Flannel> heatman: the table/box with archetectures at the bottom, click the "all" or "i386" and then you'll be asked to choose a mirror to download it
[09:06] <heatman> Flannel: TY
[09:06] <Talaman72> edison_,, do you have icmp blocked?
[09:06] <qnyc> ekso, q
[09:06] <ekso> tks!
[09:06] <w30> burtr: also your operating system and apps must be 64bit also to use it.
[09:06] <darwich> can anybody help me find my Fake windows root ?
[09:07] <edison_> Talaman72, Icmp? i dont know i gonna look
[09:07] <justinburger> so there is no way to power up/power down a specific USB port?
[09:07] <ferronica> i am using ubuntu Fiesty Fawn to enter in GRUB esc , IS there any good graphical GRUB available ???
[09:07] <qnyc> ekso, man uses less, type man less for more options
[09:07] <littlebob> i was using the netboot does it install the desktop
[09:07] <darwich> can anybody help me find my Fake windows root ?
[09:07] <niuq> Lamego: startup manager?
[09:07] <OSBC> man useless ? :p
[09:07] <edison_> Talaman72, what are you doing?
[09:08] <Lamego> niuq, http://www.getdeb.net/app.php?name=Startup+Manager
[09:08] <w30> burtr: you can install things like 31bit flash on 64 bit Linux but it's a work-around.
[09:08] <taigeR_> hi
[09:08] <w30> 31/32
[09:08] <Nalleman> Gnea, Tremulous worked ok as well
[09:08] <Talaman72> edison_, i was trying to ping you
[09:08] <Lamego> I am using 64bits without any issues, for rare cases you use 32bits binaries
[09:08] <littlebob> anyone?
[09:08] <wietz0r> OSBC: Glad it all worked out :)
[09:09] <edison_> Talaman72, yes i see.. dont know why it doesnt work in hamachi, should i look for icmp?
[09:09] <kbrooks> 31 bit flash? heh :)
[09:09] <OSBC> wietz0r: not all, I don't have writing permissions under nautilus
[09:09] <w30> Lamego: yep 64bit Linux works swell.
[09:09] <wietz0r> OSBC: Oooooh
[09:09] <OSBC> wietz0r: but i can mkdir :)
[09:09] <ekso> qnyc: ok! tks!! :)
[09:09] <wietz0r> OSBC: You could always start a nautilus as root and change the permissions on it ?
[09:10] <wietz0r> Anyhow, I'm gonna install ubunt unow
[09:10] <taigeR_> you tell me ;)
[09:10] <Gnea> Nalleman: ok, i don't know what AC's setup is all about, it's really impossible to adjust the settings in that game
[09:10] <Talaman72> edison_, ping me and see if you get something back
[09:10] <Gnea> Nalleman: yeah, AC looks like it has some issues
[09:10] <wietz0r> Talaman72: 21:10 [freenode]  CTCP PING reply from Talaman72: 0.492 seconds
[09:11] <Talaman72> huh
[09:11] <littlebob> ubuntu is only starting in the commandline, i used netboot

[09:11] <Gnea> np
[09:11] <OSBC> wietz0r: that's only nautilus who is fool
[09:12] <Gnea> Nalleman: i think you'll like tremulous - give it a bit and see how it grows on ya, the gfx/sound should keep up ok
[09:12] <edison_> Talaman72, dont know how to ping u here in xchat lol
[09:12] <littlebob> does netboot only install non-graphical ubuntu?
[09:13] <mzanfardino> I need some suggestions on how to properly evaluate the functionality of my wireless network.  I've recently installed ubuntu on a laptop with wireless connectivitiy.  I can get the wireless adapter to work, but I'm finding that I have a spoty connection.  I and another laptop running windows and it too has a spotty connection.  I'm suspicious of the router, but when I run various wired tests it performs perfectly.  Any suggestions?
[09:13] <Talaman72> just right click on the nick and it ping or ctcp then ping should be in the list
[09:13] <Nalleman> yes. its looks great. but i still have issues with flightgear and 3d chess (!)
[09:13] <tarzeau> Nalleman: nvidia?
[09:13] <littlebob> any help
[09:14] <Nalleman> tarzeau, no, intel
[09:14] <imachine> HEY
[09:14] <tarzeau> littlebob: netboot just says you boot from the network. you can do anything afterwards
[09:14] <imachine> cna someone tell me where I can get files from packages ?
[09:14] <tarzeau> Nalleman: haha, :)
[09:14] <imachine> http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/base/linux-amd64-generic <- i want this package
[09:14] <Talaman72> edison_, if you have xchat there is a button
[09:14] <tarzeau> imachine: from opening the package?
[09:14] <imachine> where can I find what is it built from ?
[09:14] <littlebob> well i installed the ubuntu desktop but it does not comeup
[09:14] <tarzeau> imachine: download it and unpack it?
[09:14] <imachine> tarzeau: dude, don't try to be funny please. I need to know about patches.
[09:14] <tarzeau> imachine: binary packages are built from source packages
[09:14] <OSBC> wietz0r: i'm trying a reboot, maybe something fooled
[09:15] <imachine> I need to patch my vanilla kernel with the same patch ubuntu patches it's asus-acpi module.
[09:15] <Nalleman> tarzeau, integrated intel card. Its HOT ;)
[09:15] <tarzeau> Nalleman: worst. shit. ever.
[09:15] <imachine> tarzeau: know how I'd get about doing so ?
[09:15] <tarzeau> imachine: using ar x the.deb
[09:15] <imachine> what ?
[09:15] <imachine> wtf
[09:15] <imachine> LISTEN
[09:15] <tarzeau> imachine: you need a terminal
[09:15] <imachine> i need to know what patch is used.
[09:15] <imachine> so I can patch my kernel, on another distro.
[09:15] <mokomull> imachine: Then grab the source package.
[09:16] <imachine> mokomull: yes, does it include the patches ?
[09:16] <mokomull> imachine: Of course!
[09:16] <imachine> mokomull: like, I could pick off which one's which?
[09:16] <w30> mzanfardino: I can say that wireless on my cheap router is qwerky too. A guy across the street was using my wireless in his car but the computer in my bedroom is always droping connections, Go figure
[09:16] <Lamego> imachine, it includes everything which is used to build the binaries
[09:16] <imachine> mokomull: I mean I could just as well diff the files :)
[09:16] <imachine> Lamego: yes! that's what I want ;)
[09:16] <OldPink> /
[09:16] <mokomull> imachine: Of course not.  You could always search the changelog to find out.
[09:16] <imachine> Lamego: where could I find the package ?
[09:16] <mokomull> imachine: sudo apt-get source linux-kernel
[09:16] <imachine> http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/base/linux-amd64-generic that's the one I want
[09:17] <host_> question, how do I tell what video driver linux is using?
[09:17] <imachine> mokomull: well, yes, but I'm not on ubuntu. and I don't have ubuntu anywhere near except for on cds. where would this command fetch the source package from ?
[09:17] <tarzeau> host_: which video card? check the x config file?
[09:17] <imachine> mokomull: http://ftp.pwr.wroc.pl/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-source-2.6.22/ <- here, for example ?
[09:17] <Sebastianffx> hi, somebody can help me, i lost my ntfs disks, and when i remount them, it says: "File system incorrect, opcion incorrect, block incorrect on /dev/sda5. it miss the code page or so.  try dmesg|tail or so.
[09:17] <w30> mzanfardino: I suppose you have messed with locations and antenna positions, etc.
[09:17] <tarzeau> host_: if you're after ati/nvidia lsmod and look for nvidia or fglrx
[09:17] <Lamego> host_, you look at /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:17] <host_> nvidia gforce 5200
[09:17] <imachine> mokomull: I don't know how the mirrors are built for apt-get.
[09:18] <tarzeau> host_: lsmod | grep nvidia says something?
[09:18] <mokomull> imachine: You see down below where it says "Source package:"...
[09:18] <tarzeau> host_: then check the x config file if it has vesa, nv or nvidia
[09:18] <imachine> mokomull: I see nothing like that.
[09:19] <mokomull> Under "More information"
[09:19] <imachine> is there no View-CVS for stuff like that ?
[09:19] <Milux> hello! i can't see correctly the ...letters with kvirc. I tried UTF-8 and ISO 8859-1. What i do?
[09:19] <Lundn> a good linux editor that handles ftp highlightning and auto complete would be awesome :P
[09:20] <Ravenndude`> Is there a way to make boot time in fiesty quicker?
[09:20] <niuq> Lamego: i just installed wmanager, thought it was the same thing, but i cannot run it
[09:20] <Sebastianffx> somebody that help me please: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27054/
[09:20] <Sebastianffx> i dont know how to recover my ntfs discs
[09:20] <buddo> windowers soft wear
[09:20] <tarzeau> Ravenndude`: why do they all call it fiesty?
[09:21] <ferronica> i am using ubuntu Fiesty Fawn to enter in GRUB esc , is there any good graphical GRUB available ???
[09:21] <Gnea> Sebastianffx: got a windows cd?
[09:21] <Ravenndude`> i before e except after c
[09:21] <Sebastianffx> yes
[09:21] <Sebastianffx> why, Gnea?
[09:21] <host_> tarzeau, it has nvidia, but it's only allowing my refresh rate to go up to 54 hz
[09:21] <Gnea> Sebastianffx: boot it up, go into recovery mode console, and run chkdsk /r
[09:21] <buddo> printing with lexmark
[09:21] <wolfspirit> how do I install the dcop server?  is that something specific to installing kde?  I'm trying to run a kde app in enlightenment and I normally use gnome
[09:21] <Ravenndude`> Is there a way to make boot time in feisty*** quicker?
[09:22] <Sebastianffx> allright
[09:22] <wolfspirit> Ravenndude`: what is it at right now?
[09:22] <tarzeau> Ravenndude`: probably by removing all the stuff that's started at boot time?
[09:22] <Sebastianffx> Gnea, and thats all??
[09:22] <buddo> lexmarkprinter
[09:22] <Gnea> Sebastianffx: when it finishes, reboot to ubuntu and try to mount the ntfs then
[09:23] <Sebastianffx> ok i will, thanx a lot :)
[09:23] <pepe_> hello folks :)
[09:23] <host_> next question, how do I get my refresh rate options to allow me to make it higher? it's only going up to 54 hz
[09:24] <OldPink> host
[09:24] <OldPink> host_: Edit your xorg.conf :)
[09:24] <ubuntu_aa> help help
[09:24] <imachine> mokomull: http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/devel/linux-source this is what I want
[09:24] <host_> thanks OldPink , i'll just fiddle around in that for a while til something works in a few weeks
[09:24] <ubuntu_aa> I booted ubuntu live cd to fix broken sysstem on hda
[09:25] <OldPink> host: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:25] <ubuntu_aa> but ubuntu livecd doesnt see my hard drive, there is no file /dev/hda wtf
[09:25] <imachine> mokomull: but it's built from some wacky linux-meta package. and that's all I can get from the Source package:
[09:25] <imachine> mokomull: it's terrible! :/// ffs
[09:25] <OldPink> host_: Then look for the list of refresh rates
[09:25] <OldPink> Add the ones you'd like
[09:25] <OldPink> Reboot
[09:25] <Flannel> ubuntu_aa: it'd be /dev/hda1 (for the first partition on hda)
[09:25] <ubuntu_aa>  # ls /dev/hd?
[09:25] <ubuntu_aa> /dev/hdb
[09:26] <ubuntu_aa> it sees only my cdrom
[09:26] <unimatrix9> make sure your monitor can do the refresh rate you enter!
[09:26] <ubuntu_aa> but not ATA
[09:26] <mike> I have a problem with my screen resolution... I edited the config file and added in the resolution I need..
[09:26] <bri> hello
[09:26] <mike> This changed the login resolution
[09:26] <Lekrem> hey bri
[09:26] <Flannel> ubuntu_aa: hdb is your CDrom?
[09:26] <ubuntu_aa> Flannel, yea
[09:26] <mike> but ubuntu desktop doesn't work at full resolution
[09:27] <mike> !resolution
[09:27] <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
[09:27] <Flannel> ubuntu_aa: you're right.  your harddrive (assuming it's IDE) isn't showing up.  Are you sure it's an IDE drive?
[09:27] <ubuntu_aa> Flanne yeaaa
[09:27] <Gnea> mike: the system might not support that resolution
[09:27] <mike> 1280 ?
[09:27] <mike> :(
[09:27] <Gnea> it might not
[09:27] <Gnea> depends what your system is
[09:27] <ubuntu_aa> Flanne - LIVE cd ubuntu do create /dev/hda and so on if harddrive is connected??
[09:27] <mike> what do you mean by system?
[09:27] <mike> hardware?
[09:27] <Gnea> yes
[09:27] <Flannel> ubuntu_aa: no.  Turn it off, open up the system, check your connections.
[09:28] <mike> 8800 GTS 320
[09:28] <Gnea> monitor?
[09:28] <ubuntu_aa> Flannel so you say it must be a hardware problem?
[09:28] <mike> Gnea, Why would the login screen work but the desktop not?
[09:28] <Flannel> ubuntu_aa: yes.  Otherwise you'd see /dev/hda
[09:28] <unimatrix9> is there an how to make your own ubuntu livecd some where, or how these were build?
[09:28] <mike> monitor is quite oldish
[09:28] <ubuntu_aa> ok
[09:28] <Gnea> mike: dunno
[09:28] <mike> some wierd gnr thing
[09:28] <Gnea> mike: make/model?
[09:28] <Flannel> ubuntu_aa: if you want, reboot, look in the BIOS to see if you see it.
[09:28] <ubuntu_aa> ok\
[09:28] <Gnea> guns 'n roses? :)
[09:28] <Sebastianffx>  hey, Gnea can you say me what is the think tahat i should to do... please excuse me, but i forgot to take note when you say me :P...
[09:28] <mike> fuck no those guys are retarded
[09:28] <Lekrem> hello Milux
[09:28] <Sebastianffx> is chkdisk?
[09:29] <Gnea> LOL
[09:29] <kitche> unimatrix9: probably on the site or google might have a good article
[09:29] <Gnea> Sebastianffx: chkdsk /r

[09:29] <ubotu> imachine: 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
[09:30] <Flannel> imachine: follow the instructions on that page to get the kernel source
[09:30] <Gnea> mike: anyway, can you get a make/model of the monitor?
[09:30] <unimatrix9> is there an how to make your own ubuntu livecd some where, or how these were build?
[09:30] <imachine> Flannel: this better be worth it
[09:30] <unimatrix9> not on google...
[09:30] <Wisdom07> hello
[09:30] <kitche> unimatrix9: check the wiki
[09:30] <techjim> elkbuntu: ping
[09:30] <unimatrix9> ok
[09:30] <Flannel> imachine: Worth what?  You'll get your kernel source. Why do you want the source?
[09:30] <mike> yeah 2 secs
[09:30] <imachine> Flannel: I need to know what patches are applied to vanilla.
[09:31] <kitche> unimatrix9: sicne I know one is on there but not sure if that's what you want or not

[09:36] <Gnea> !wireless | linracoon
[09:36] <linracoon> the smc cd doesnt have any driver for linux
[09:36] <ubotu> linracoon: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[09:37] <linracoon> Gnea: the smc cd doesnt have any driver for linux
[09:37] <Gnea> linracoon: right, linux should have the driver already - if not, you'd have to use it with ndiswrapper - look at the website that ubotu just gave you to check the compatibility list for your card
[09:37] <linracoon> Gnea: ok
[09:37] <Gnea> linracoon: hardly EVER does a cd have a linux driver on it :)
[09:38] <RoC_MM> What happens if I put a repo in my sources.list but don't install the gpg key?
[09:38] <savetheWorld> Hi all -where can i find info about Ubuntu's server releases?
[09:38] <savetheWorld> !ubotu server
[09:38] <ubotu> Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server-specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq/ - The #ubuntu-server channel provides specific support
[09:38] <linracoon> Gnea: im in that page but i dont see any doc for smc
[09:38] <savetheWorld> Thanks!
[09:39] <Gnea> linracoon: you have to look around and find it
[09:39] <savetheWorld> The werb helps those who HUP themselves
[09:39] <linracoon> Gnea: but i have and there isnt any for smc
[09:39] <imachine> Flannel: dude, http://ftp.pwr.wroc.pl/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-source-2.6.20/linux-source-2.6.20_2.6.20-16.29_all.deb <- is this the file to get ???
[09:39] <mike> Gnea, What do you think? :(
[09:39] <Gnea> linracoon: it's there, you're just not looking hard enough.
[09:39] <imachine> I see no patches, anywhere! it's terryfing how your devs even MANAGE to get about your build system
[09:40] <linracoon> Gnea: hu? where??
[09:40] <benofsky> argh, ubuntu won't install
[09:40] <host_> what's the command to re-run the xorg config?

[09:40] <benofsky> xorgconfig*
[09:40] <KDan> Hello, I'm trying to open something through xvfb-run. I keep getting "Error: Can't open display: :99" error messages. /tmp/.X11-unix/X99 exists, and i tried running it under sudo so I don't think it's a permissions problem. Anyone got any idea/pointers for how I can resolve that? Couldn't find much on google unfortunately... Yes, I've also tried exporting DISPLAY (to :99 and localhost:0.0)... no joy...
[09:41] <Gnea> mike: i think the Monitor section might not have the best HorizSync and VertRefresh values... are those automatically generated?
[09:41] <jrib> !xconfig > host_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[09:41] <benofsky> after a few minuets of the ubuntu install it tells me system temperature reached 51c too hot system halted

[09:41] <vafada> hi.. i was playing with groups and I lost the right to sudo :(
[09:41] <vafada> how can i add myself again to admin group?
[09:41] <neil_> hey guys, I have a vanilla install here with only restricted-packages added
[09:41] <Gnea> vafada: boot from the livecd
[09:41] <linracoon> Gnea: 7904wbra2
[09:42] <neil_> I cant play the streaming video on news.bbc.co.uk, its WM format
[09:42] <neil_> what do I need?
[09:42] <Incandenzian> Is there a way to get the Terminal to open in the dir you're in?
[09:42] <Incandenzian> e.g. I open up a folder on my Desktop, then a subfolder of that folder, etc.
[09:42] <Incandenzian> then click the Terminal icon.
[09:42] <AlestorJN> Hi everyone, I'm having some problems using the partition manager, fdisk, in the Ubuntu Terminal.  If anyone could help I would greatly appreciate it. :)
[09:42] <kitche> imachine: umm I see a diff file for the linux source and it looks like a patch to me
[09:42] <vafada> Gnea, no other way to access root in my machine?
[09:43] <Gnea> vafada: negative
[09:43] <owas> preciso de dicas cedega+revolt
[09:43] <neil_> noone?
[09:43] <RoC_MM> vafada, yeah just a sec
[09:43] <GenNMX> How does one recover a lost ext3 partition? I tried converting multiple EXT3 partitions to a LVM, but I screwed up in that I didn't know it would dereference the existing partitions (stupid me). I didn't format the LVM, so the data should still be there. testdisk says the superblocks still exist.
[09:43] <lbawinowns> Ubotu told me that i can use Nautilius as an FTP?
[09:43] <Incandenzian> neil_, go to Synaptic and search for WM.
[09:44] <lbawinowns> What FTP related feutures does nautilius have?
[09:44] <Gnea> linracoon: what kernel are you using?
[09:44] <comosicus> i need to unninstall videoactivex from my comp and i can't find it
[09:44] <kitche> lbawinowns: umm ftp client
[09:44] <Lamego> lbawinowns, all the features you expect from a plain ftp client
[09:44] <darwich> When i try to run WoW trough "  " display=0 wine WoW.exe " i still run 5 fps trough Wine .. Why ?
[09:44] <RoC_MM> vafada, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_gain_root_user_access_without_login
[09:44] <Gnea> darwich: because you should use cedega
[09:44] <lbawinowns> kitche, lamego - how do i activate :?
[09:44] <darwich> Gnea: Cedega isnt working here :(
[09:45] <vafada> RoC_MM, thanks let me check that
[09:45] <RoC_MM> vafada, you then need to use some command to add yourself back to the "admin" group
[09:45] <Gnea> darwich: why not?
[09:45] <juan278> how do i pair a phone with ubuntu? it keeps asking for a passkey

[09:45] <Gnea> darwich: i've had WoW work with cedega flawlessly
[09:45] <mike> Gnea, I think they were the auto-generated ones yes
[09:45] <kitche> lbawinowns: should just have to do ftp://<user>@<pass>:domain
[09:45] <darwich> Gnea : I dont know :/ .. but i know that my WoW worked once with Wine .. but cant make it work with more than 5 fps :/
[09:45] <Lamego> lbawinowns, you just need to go to Places -> Connect to Server
[09:46] <jrib> juan278: someone the other day said there was some default key, it was something dumb like 0000 or 1234 (I can't remember).  But  /usr/share/doc/RELEVANT_PACKAGE/README.Debian   would probably mention it
[09:46] <neil_> Do I need w32codecs If i have restricted-packages for ubuntu installed?
[09:46] <lbawinowns> ok thanks, can it act as server?
[09:46] <comosicus> i need to unninstall video activex...i don't now how
[09:46] <darwich> When i try to run WoW with the command " display=0 wine WoW.exe " i still run 5 fps trough Wine .. Why ?
[09:46] <jrib> neil_: I don't have w32codecs and I can play everything I've tried
[09:46] <PIPBoy_> is there a chat for the KDE enviroment? and the Gnome enviroment?
[09:46] <neil_> jrib: Can you play streaming video from http://news.bbc.co.uk ?
[09:46] <jrib> comosicus: why do you think you need to?  I'm not sure what activex in linux means
[09:47] <neil_> If I swap gstreamer for totem-gxine, It shows the player with like a cartoony red-x image instead of the stream
[09:47] <lbawinowns> PIPBoy_ #KDE , it is active
[09:47] <juan278> jrib: the key is 1234 but it still wont allow the pairing
[09:47] <qnyc> neil_, you need w32codecs, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu

[09:48] <comosicus> offfff

[09:58] <dugurama> python 2.4 is a dependencie for java and vica versa

[09:59] <neol> weeeeb: what error are you getting ?
[09:59] <weeeeb> ill type it agn
[09:59] <weeeeb> Another process is using the packaging system database (probably some other Adept application or apt-get or aptitude). Please close the other application before using this one.
[09:59] <Gnea> mike: yup
[10:00] <weeeeb> howevs I cannot figure out whats running
[10:00] <ibanex> weeeb:  you can check your System Monitor from gnome-control-center and kill any synaptic process
[10:00] <bung> hi, im trying to install smbfs in synaptic, and i get the following message: smbfs: Depends: samba-common (=3.0.24-2ubuntu1) but 3.0.24-2ubuntu1.2 is to be installed... 1.2>1 so a newer version is installed, and it wont install ?

[10:01] <DrkCodeman> err wrong room ;p
[10:01] <Gnea> DrkCodeman: wine or cedega?
[10:01] <DrkCodeman> wine
[10:01] <DrkCodeman> ;p
[10:01] <Sebastianffx> Gnea, it happen the same (the volume seems to have unrecovery problems) :(
[10:02] <g4lv4tr0n> opencompositing
[10:02] <Lamego> DrkCodeman, try #wine
[10:02] <DrkCodeman> ya
[10:02] <DrkCodeman> actualy its #winehq
[10:02] <neol> g4lv4tr0n: opencompositing is for compiz fusion channel right ??
[10:02] <dugurama> its winehund
[10:03] <Gnea> Sebastianffx: ouch.  if you have a usb jumpdrive, you MIGHT be able to copy files from the hard drive to the jumpdrive in the recovery console...
[10:03] <weeeeb> i dont see any synaptic processes and besides im running adept and automatrix
[10:03] <weeeeb> which i also cannot find
[10:03] <dugurama> mmm automatix
[10:03] <dugurama> getautomatix.com
[10:03] <jrib> !automatix
[10:03] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[10:04] <Sebastianffx> i think the same, but even it dont recognize th partition (D:>)
[10:04] <dugurama> same deal with synaptic
[10:04] <neil_> jrib: Still no luck, even with mplayer. This has always been my problem with ubuntu.. it connects, says its buffering, then goes to 'stopped'.
[10:04] <neol> weeeeb: better restart ur system prob will be easily solved without any headache
[10:04] <jrib> neil_: right click -> play
[10:04] <weeeeb> you mean reformat?
[10:04] <jrib> dugurama: will you do what I asked so I can help you?
[10:05] <dugurama> sure
[10:05] <ibanex> weeeb: just restart it will kill the process
[10:05] <ibanex> it shouldnt be running at boot
[10:05] <weeeeb> ive restarted several times...
[10:05] <neol> weeeeb: i mean restart ur system
[10:05] <weeeeb> same error.
[10:05] <Arko> is there SecondLife in repositories?
[10:05] <neol> weeeeb: thats strange
[10:05] <neil_> jrib: repeats same.. connecting, getting playlist, buffering, stopped.
[10:05] <Sebastianffx> look what it says when i try to remoun under ubuntu :[  244.618723]  NTFS-fs error (device sda5): ntfs_fill_super(): Not an NTFS volume.
[10:05] <jrib> Arko: no, but you can download it from their website
[10:05] <weeeeb> its annoying ;p
[10:05] <kane77> Arko, not afaik, but it is on getdeb.org...
[10:05] <Arko> jrib: thanx
[10:05] <jrib> neil_: I used the "play directly in player" link
[10:05] <surviver> jrib, sry for interupt back but i am asking myself in my permissions i see drw... so where stands the D for?
[10:06] <dugurama> vncversion xyz123:0
[10:06] <weeeeb> therfe must be a process that i dont know what it is
[10:06] <kane77> Arko, eh sry getdeb.net
[10:06] <jrib> surviver: d means it is a directory
[10:06] <surviver> jrib, oke ty
[10:06] <ibanex> weeeeb: try the command: sudo ps ax | grep synaptic
[10:06] <ibanex> see what it gives you...
[10:06] <DrkCodeman> how do you enable opengl?
[10:06] <weeeeb> i did try intalling pidgin from the terminal and messed up because im inept at typing in terminal commands, perhaps it created some sort of process there
[10:06] <dugurama> install compiz
[10:07] <weeeeb> what could that be
[10:07] <kitche> DrkCodeman: use a binary driver but it's installed with mesalib
[10:07] <ibanex> weeeeb: that wouldn't spawn any kind of synaptic process
[10:07] <surviver> jrib, oke iam much farther now i can see only root has write premission and group nor other has the permission only read oke thx  iam bit farther i read on how i can change this stuff:D
[10:07] <Gnea> DrkCodeman: have you read this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=120615
[10:08] <weeeb> well that didnt work
[10:08] <NaNO2x> how can i modify the applications menu?
[10:09] <ibanex> weeeb: what didnt?
[10:09] <neol> how do i open any application as root ?
[10:09] <jrib> NaNO2x: rigth click on the ubuntu icon -> edit menu
[10:09] <Shaftino> neol, gksudo
[10:09] <kane77> neol, sudo applicationname
[10:09] <kitche> neol: use gksu <application>
[10:09] <jrib> neol: note that you will rarely need to
[10:09] <NaNO2x> thanks
[10:09] <mike> Gnea, Didn't work - same thing.. login screen is 1280.. then when I login the screen blacks.. then switches back on with 1024.. very strange behaviour indeed
[10:09] <neol> kane77: that is not working
[10:09] <kitche> neol: sudo is for console gksu is for graphical
[10:09] <kane77> neol, if it is gui then gksu
[10:09] <neol> Shaftino: kitche thanks trying now
[10:10] <dugurama> ok jrib now how do I change my dowloads file
[10:10] <dugurama> from Desktop
[10:10] <weeeb> does anyone have any clue how to asses what the hell is causing this message in adept installer:  Another process is using the packaging system database (probably some other Adept application or apt-get or aptitude). Please close the other application before using this one.
[10:10] <Gnea> mike: OH!!! right click on desktop->properties
[10:10] <terlmann> I have a strange error in one of my games ,and it has happened on other os's.the game ppracer's text ui elements are converted to gibberish for seemingly no reason  when aiglx is enabled.when software rendering is used the framerate is from the 1st century bc but the labels work. any help ?
[10:10] <terlmann> weeb
[10:10] <weeeb> yes
[10:11] <BURTS> what is the longest single span a 5e network cable is capable of?
[10:11] <Gnea> mike: see if you can switch the res for gnome up to 1280 there
[10:11] <terlmann> kill all apt-get , dpkg , and synaotic sessions
[10:11] <surviver> jrib, mzz got question there 3 groups: other owner and group : owner = root , what is group? or other? :s:s
[10:11] <terlmann> log everyone out
[10:11] <dugurama> 100 meters
[10:11] <terlmann> then yourself back in
[10:11] <BURTS> only a 100 meters :( crap
[10:11] <akromyk> hi, can anyone point me to a good linux game to improve memory
[10:11] <terlmann> yes
[10:11] <tarzeau> akromyk: nethack
[10:11] <terlmann> try suduko
[10:12] <mobutu> counterstrike
[10:12] <mike> Gnea, That's what I did though.. I logged in.. tried to change it.. the screen goes all mental and I can't see anything.. then it just leaves me with a blank screen (instead of changing the settings back after 15 seconds)
[10:12] <dugurama> you guys are wearing out your memory
[10:12] <terlmann> for memory
[10:12] <terlmann> play

[10:13] <akromyk> thanks
[10:13] <brk3> does anyone know how I can get the name of my sound device for use with recordMyDesktop?
[10:13] <jrib> dugurama: you haven't done what I asked
[10:13] <Lekrem> brk3 sure
[10:13] <dugurama> yes I have and it installed to Desktop
[10:13] <terlmann> I have a strange error in one of my games ,and it has happened on other os's.the game ppracer's text ui elements are converted to gibberish for seemingly no reason  when aiglx is enabled.when software rendering is used the framerate is from the 1st century bc but the labels work. any help ?
[10:13] <jrib> surviver: owner is the user account that owns the file, group is the group that owns the file, and other applies to everyone else
[10:13] <brk3> Lekrem: can you tell me? :)
[10:13] <dugurama> jrib
[10:13] <terlmann> could someone hrlp mr ?
[10:13] <Gnea> mike: right - what i'm saying is that, X itself is able to do 1280 just fine - no problems there. the PROBLEM is within gnome itself - it somehow thinks that it should still be set to 1024 and so it's forcing the desktop back to that - so you need to tell gnome to go shove it :)
[10:13] <terlmann> me*
[10:13] <jbellis> how do i get the install disk to actually install instead of booting into livecd mode
[10:14] <jrib> jbellis: double click on the "install" icon on the desktop
[10:14] <surviver> jrib, iam now logged into as user or owner with other words? it an account of me
[10:14] <Shaftino> jbellis, Use the alternate
[10:14] <jbellis> jrib: there's no shortcut?
[10:14] <mike> ooooh I see.. I'm doing it through System.. Preferences.. Screen resolution at the moment.. is that wrong?
[10:14] <comosicus> i have wine and i'm using an old version of video activex....i whant to install a new version but i must uninstall the old oane.....i don't know how to do that
[10:14] <Flannel> jbellis: the shortcut isto use the alternate CD, which boots straight into a textmode installer
[10:14] <jrib> jbellis: what do you mean?
[10:14] <Shaftino> !alternate | jbellis
[10:14] <Lekrem> brk3 brb
[10:14] <ubotu> jbellis: 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
[10:14] <jbellis> tx Shaftino
[10:14] <Gnea> mike: if that's not doing it, try right clicking on the desktop and trying there
[10:15] <jrib> surviver: what do you want to do?
[10:15] <mike> I dont havea  resolution option on the desktop :(
[10:15] <surviver> jrib, i think i got it let me try :D i try to mount my partition rw for my account not only for root
[10:15] <mike> and the other way gave me a scrambled screen when I tried to change it last time :(
[10:15] <jrib> surviver: no, use chmod/chown on the mounted partition
[10:15] <dugurama> ctrl+alt+right arrow
[10:15] <Gnea> mike: what about ctrl+alt++ ?
[10:16] <Gnea> mike: or ctrl+alt+-
[10:16] <jrib> surviver: for example, to make your user the owner and your user's default group the group:  sudo chown -R $USER: /media/sda4
[10:16] <surviver> jrib, i was trying out sonthing like this : chmod u+rwx /media/sda4?
[10:16] <dugurama> enable desktop effects
[10:16] <mike> stuck at 1024 :(
[10:16] <Lekrem> brk3 System --> Preferences --> Hardware Information
[10:16] <jrib> surviver: sure, but since root is the owner, that only gives root those permissions
[10:16] <AnObfuscator> I'm installing 64 bit ubuntu to evalute it, but I'm retaining my 32bit partition. do I need separate swap partitions?
[10:16] <AlestorJN> Okay I'm going to go ahead and ask: how do I rename volumes via Terminal?
[10:16] <brk3> Lekrem: thanks alot!
[10:16] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: no
[10:16] <wietz0r> Awesome, new ubuntu pickup everything including propietary wifi
[10:16] <Gnea> mike: ok, then you'll have to reset the gnome settings: http://linuxfud.wordpress.com/2007/02/14/how-to-reset-ubuntugnome-settings-to-defaults-without-re-installing/
[10:16] <wietz0r> I ove it
[10:16] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: sparc or amd64?
[10:17] <AnObfuscator> amd64
[10:17] <mike> ok..
[10:17] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: I didn't know there WAS an spark Ubuntu
[10:17] <surviver> jrib, oke so on my way i need to give this infact to the group? or other?
[10:17] <jrib> dugurama: do you understand what you need to do?
[10:17] <dugurama> How do I change my Downloads folder?
[10:17] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: popcon.ubuntu.com
[10:17] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: i run one at werk
[10:17] <dugurama> jrib
[10:17] <jrib> surviver: you need to change the actual owner or group or both
[10:18] <jrib> dugurama: in firefox preferences
[10:18] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: nice, that is very useful to know. :-)
[10:18] <sx66> how do you set the default backlight dimmer to less than 11min of the default?
[10:19] <surviver> jrib, nice it worked but ill give it a better look cause iam bit of confused at some part :D
[10:19] <Gnea> sx66: the backlight dimmer of *what*?
[10:19] <sx66> Gnea: of the powersettings.
[10:19] <weeeeb> nothing still seems to be working. Same error.
[10:19] <Gnea> sx66: laptop?
[10:20] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: not like they're great machines. i'd exchange any of them against an amd64 one
[10:20] <sx66> Gnea: yes...
[10:20] <Linracoon> Gnea: hello?
[10:20] <Gnea> Linracoon: hi
[10:20] <Linracoon> did you find the solution for the usb wifi adapter?
[10:20] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: yeah, but I know people who have old, unused ultraSPARC boxes lying around, so I'd like to play with one of them
[10:21] <AnObfuscator> It would be a fun experiment, at least
[10:21] <weeeeb> if i was trying to install something in the terminal, messed up, could that cause the error?
[10:21] <Gnea> Linracoon: i'm like that blue fish in Finding Nemo... you gotta keep up if you want me to remember...
[10:21] <Linracoon> Gnea: about the router smc 7904wbra2?
[10:21] <Gnea> ah ok
[10:21] <Gnea> Linracoon: did you read the websites i gave you?
[10:21] <weeeeb> how can i safely continue the install through the terminal, my knowledge of terminal commands sucks'
[10:21] <Linracoon> i did
[10:21] <Gnea> and?
[10:21] <sx66> Gnea: so, what do you think, how do I get it below the 11min default?
[10:21] <Linracoon> i dont find any solution for it
[10:21] <surviver> jrib, little question in ur command u gave me u set -R $USER:  so -r stands for not reading and the $user stands for all users? right?
[10:22] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: it's fun, but i'd never run kde or gnome on one
[10:22] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: that bad, eh?
[10:22] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: no. but gnome/kde are that bad
[10:22] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: the sparc are great compared to that software
[10:22] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: you know the non-ultra sparcs were great with openstep
[10:23] <Gnea> sx66: http://spidertools.com/ub_power.php
[10:23] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: it's just todays software is written worse :)
[10:23] <Devyll> can anyone tell me a code editor with upload on save feature ? (when you save the script it uploads it to the remote location)
[10:23] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: ha, I see. OpenStep ran on SPARC?
[10:23] <Gnea> Linracoon: oh yeah, you didn't tell me what kernel you're running
[10:23] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: yeah. and on hppa, and intel cpu
[10:23] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: I thought it was just ported to x86, then got bought.
[10:23] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: no it was quad fat binaries
[10:24] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: that's why the binaries had NIHS in the anme (next, intel, hppa, sparc)
[10:24] <Linracoon> GnarlyBob: 2.6.17
[10:24] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: intel was just the most popular one (because it was cheap)
[10:24] <Linracoon> Gnea: wait let me check
[10:24] <Theleo> used the following command to make a fat 32 filesystem on one of my disks(after ofcourse i partiotined it) mkfs.vfat -F 32 /dev/sdb1.No errors.Rebooting in uncle bills O/S and i see the hard disk in device manager but i cant see in my computer.It seems that there is no letter assigned to it.Any ideas?
[10:24] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: Yeauch. SO that's where Apple got its Fat Binaries.
[10:24] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: yeah, apple didn't invent that. NeXT did
[10:24] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: like oh so many other things as well
[10:25] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: they only bought it
[10:25] <CTho_> of gxine, democacy tv, tvtime, xawtv, which do I want?
[10:25] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: Well, that's pretty much all of OSX :P
[10:25] <jrib> Devyll: you could use vim
[10:25] <taigeR_> hey
[10:25] <neol> i have to change my fat32 partition to mount only in read mode.. so i thought of changing fstab from rw to ro but i am not finding " rw " option in fstab here is the fstab content < http://pastebin.com/935408 >
[10:25] <ParanoyaM> hi guys
[10:25] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: all the cocoa.h is nothing else but #imports of ApplicationKit.h and FoundationKit.h :)
[10:25] <ParanoyaM> can anybody tell me how restart samba
[10:25] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: no the crappy part of it is Mac OS (but it's really shit, they should've left it away)
[10:26] <dcarros> /etc/init.d/samba restart
[10:26] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: Quartz? NExT. Safari? KHTML. Darwin? Mach + FreeBSD. Cocoa? hah, NSView, etc.
[10:26] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: namely hfs/hfs+, resource forks, the fixed menu bar on top, scrollbar on the left. carbon...
[10:26] <ParanoyaM> dcarros, thanks

[10:26] <Linracoon> Gnea: kernel-2.6.20-16-powerpc
[10:26] <alesan> is it possible to make my user able to run programs with root privileges without sudo? or should I really enable the root user from the graphical login?
[10:26] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: display postscrip tdefinitely was greater
[10:26] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: safari/khtml they made with cocoa->good
[10:26] <pinp> hello all, whenever I quit gvim I get "Usage:program_name [address] [:port] " printed at the terminal, I saw one post with this issue on the forums but no solution, anyone have any ideas on what the solution could be?
[10:26] <Devyll> jrib:  something .. less complicated ? ..
[10:26] <sx66> how do you set the default setting of 11min lower on the power mag. of a laptop? it stops at 11min
[10:27] <taigeR_> tell me
[10:27] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: the os underneath, doesn't matter. NeXT API was portable
[10:27] <Linracoon> Gnea: hello?
[10:27] <Gnea> Linracoon: dunno how well it'll work in a ppc
[10:27] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: yeah NSView, Cocoa, it's all the same from NeXT
[10:27] <Gnea> !powerpc | Linracoon
[10:27] <ubotu> Linracoon: PowerPC.  Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ
[10:27] <alesan> I'm getting tired to type my (rather long) root password every few minutes
[10:27] <neol> i have to change my fat32 partition to mount only in read mode.. so i thought of changing fstab from rw to ro but i am not finding " rw " option in fstab here is the fstab content < http://pastebin.com/935408 >
[10:27] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: here, but prepare for tears: http://gnu.ethz.ch/www.levenez.com/
[10:27] <Gnea> alesan: use sudo
[10:27] <jrib> Devyll: did you try using gedit?  I *think* it has taht feature
[10:27] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: Yeah, it's too bad Apple killed the OpenStep porting
[10:27] <alesan> and people could have it already because of the many times I have to type it :)
[10:27] <alesan> Gnea, you miss the point
[10:28] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: not just that, they made it all butt slow
[10:28] <kitche> neol: just add ro to /etc/fstab
[10:28] <Gnea> alesan: no, i don't. use sudo, and change your password.
[10:28] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: people are impressed when i show them how much faster openstep 4.2 on crap hardware is compared to Mac OS X
[10:28] <alesan> Gnea, I do NOT want to type the root password.
[10:28] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: http://www.paullynch.org/NeXTSTEP/MacWorld.97.html
[10:28] <Gnea> alesan: sudo uses the user password, not root's.
[10:28] <Gnea> alesan: try it: sudo su
[10:28] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: i'm still impressed how Apple people managed to make the shit sooo uberslow
[10:28] <alesan> Gnea, or sudo -i that's not the point I repeat
[10:28] <Flannel> Gnea, alesan, don't sudo su.  `sudo -i` if you really want a root shell.
[10:29] <kitche> !ohmy | tarzeau
[10:29] <ubotu> tarzeau: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[10:29] <neol> kitche: but i am not find rw option so i can change that to ro check this fastab contents http://pastebin.com/935408 >
[10:29] <alesan> I want to login and be able to run programs with root privileges without any password
[10:29] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: seems like microsoft and apple try to compete who can make their os crawl slower
[10:29] <kitche> neol: yes I know just add ro
[10:29] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: well, yeah, but there's a lot of crap they had to pile in to make it pretty
[10:29] <Gnea> alesan: *again*, change your password if you're paranoid about it
[10:29] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: solaris is good in that too from sun
[10:29] <alesan> Flannel, sure
[10:29] <Flannel> alesan: No, you really don't want to do that.
[10:29] <gordonjcp> !ohmy | kitche
[10:29] <ubotu> kitche: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[10:29] <jrib> alesan: I think the issue is, you shouldn't need to run programs as root that often
[10:29] <alesan> Gnea, stop please I got your point and I am not interested
[10:29] <gordonjcp> kitche: I find "ohmy" massively offensive
[10:29] <gaten> im having problems selecting any of the formatting buttons on the forums. anyone else having this problem
[10:29] <Bi0s> hi'
[10:29] <weeeeb> I cannot seem to get my add/remove programs to work. When I load it up I get this message: "Another process is using the packaging system database (probably some other Adept application or apt-get or aptitude). Please close the other application before using this one" I do not have adept, synaptic , or automatrix running, apt get (as far as I know). And I had previously tried to install something from the terminal, but failed to complete the 
[10:30] <tarzeau> the kids here say shit and fuck more than i ever did in my whole life
[10:30] <kitche> gordonjcp: funny glad you act like a little kid
[10:30] <gordonjcp> kitche: please stop using incredibly rude words, even if they're in a language you may not know
[10:30] <Devyll> jrib: no. I'll try that. thanks
[10:30] <PriceChild> tarzeau, please watch the language.
[10:30] <neol> kitche: what were do i add ro ??? which line and where in that line ??
[10:30] <Gnea> !language | tarzeau
[10:30] <ubotu> tarzeau: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[10:30] <gordonjcp> Gnea: better
[10:30] <gordonjcp> ;-)
[10:30] <Gnea> alesan: fine, good luck then.
[10:30] <kitche> gordonjcp: oh my is not rude
[10:30] <anon2000> anyone know if there is a command that will display my monitor's refresh rate? Nvidia Settings says it is at 60hz but Preferences>Screen Resolution says it's at 50hz.
[10:30] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: I do like solaris as a kernel, but I really haven't played around with it on the desktop much, the desktops I have seen are old SPARC 1ghz or less boxes
[10:30] <imbecile> jrib,  I was googling on setting something up after a new install and found the channel logs of the last time I asked the question and you walked me through it once again without even being there.. I thought that was cool
[10:30] <Gnea> alesan: you could just leave your user account passwordless and run programs with sudo
[10:30] <gordonjcp> kitche: it's a slight mis-spelling of a very very rude word in Gaelic
[10:30] <brk3> I cant seem to get sound using recordMyDesktop does anyone else use this program?
[10:30] <PriceChild> !offtopic
[10:31] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[10:31] <alesan> Flannel, jrib let me explain. today I was at the top of a mountain, windy, sometimes cold, others sunny, I couldn't see well in my screen. I was making a 5 + 7Km wireless connection with video streaming.
[10:31] <weeeeb> I cannot seem to get my add/remove programs to work. When I load it up I get this message: "Another process is using the packaging system database (probably some other Adept application or apt-get or aptitude). Please close the other application before using this one" I do not have adept, synaptic , or automatrix running, apt get (as far as I know). And I had previously tried to install something from the terminal, but failed to complete the 
[10:31] <alesan> of course I was continuosly running ifconfig, iwconfig, iptraf, and such
[10:31] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: did you know there was an OPENSTEP thing to run on top of solaris?
[10:31] <kitche> gordonjcp: your point being I know gaelic and it's not one of them
[10:31] <Bi0s> Have anybody experience install for a pinnacle pctv usb2??? no sound....any??
[10:31] <msl> alesan: so long as you understand the security implications, you should take a look at man sudoers
[10:31] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: for on the ultra machines, there was also openstep for on windows nt/2k/xp ...
[10:31] <gordonjcp> kitche: a bheil gaelic agad? (offtopic)
[10:31] <alesan> fortunately I was running slackware :)
[10:31] <Flannel> alesan: sudo caches your password for 10 minutes.  If you'd like, you can extend that cache.
[10:31] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: the non-ultra sparc machines never had more than 200 mhz imho
[10:31] <Gnea> alesan: then write some shell scripts to bind those commands to buttons so you can just click on them on the desktop or menu
[10:32] <weeeeb> I cannot seem to get my add/remove programs to work. When I load it up I get this message: "Another process is using the packaging system database (probably some other Adept application or apt-get or aptitude). Please close the other application before using this one" I do not have adept, synaptic , or automatrix running, apt get (as far as I know). And I had previously tried to install something from the terminal, but failed to complete the 
[10:32] <neol> kitche: have a look at it  < http://pastebin.com/935408 > and tell me where to add " ro "
[10:32] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: they could have two or more cpus. openstep only supported one (on sparc)
[10:32] <Gnea> of course, that might be too much work
[10:32] <jrib> imbecile: cool
[10:32] <alesan> Flannel, I usually work with a konsole with 10 tabs open. at login (and today I rebooted a few times) I should have to sudo -i ten times
[10:32] <alesan> that's not acceptable
[10:32] <RoC_MasterMind> weeeeb, you can remove the lockfile, but you should be sure no other package manager tool is running...the file is /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[10:32] <PIPBoy_> I'm using a laptop and every time i try to hibernate or put it in suspend i can never boot back up anyone know what would solve this?
[10:32] <Flannel> alesan: Why do you need 10 root consoles open?
[10:32] <ibanex> weeeb: locate the process with "sudo ps ax | grep synaptic" this will give you the process ID for snaptic IF its running.  then, if it is currently running kill it with "sudo kill -9 <process number>"
[10:32] <alesan> Gnea, a "button" for iwconfig?
[10:32] <ibanex> i would also try to find the process for apt or other package management processes
[10:33] <Bi0s> bye
[10:33] <kitche> neol: ok hang on waiting for lynx to find the page
[10:33] <Shaftino> PIPBoy_, I have the same problem, when I wake it up, the screen just stays blank :S
[10:33] <alesan> Flannel, in one I ping, in the other I ping the other host, in the other I iperf, in the other I have the iptraf, in another I login on another remote pc
[10:33] <Gnea> alesan: so the sun was glaring off the screen?
[10:33] <weeeeb> RoC_MasterMind: it says "permission denied"
[10:33] <neol> kitche: are u in console ??
[10:33] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: yeah, I remember reading that OpenStep was ported to several other OS's, but I never heard anything coming of it. I love Cocoa-based apps, so I was really hoping that Safari/Win was bringing Cocoa to win, but no such luck
[10:33] <gerro> alesan: hmm perhaps try using screen?
[10:33] <PIPBoy_> Shaftino: yeah,  you got any idea how to fix this? or is ubuntu just THAT incompatible with laptops?
[10:33] <kitche> neol: see by default, put ro,
[10:33] <RoC_MasterMind> weeeeb, it's a system file, sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[10:34] <Shaftino> PIPBoy_, Mines on a desktop, and well the way i found it, was not to put to sleep ^^
[10:34] <alesan> gerro, how could screen possibly help me with that?
[10:34] <kitche> neol: yes I barely use the X
[10:34] <gerro> alesan: but of course that doesn't have tabs and sort of sucks in my opinion, I use xfce4-terminal on xubuntu so kind of different but I see what your saying
[10:34] <RoC_MasterMind> weeeeb, it's "root owned"
[10:34] <Flannel> alesan: You don't need to login to a remote PC as root.  You don't need to ping as root.
[10:34] <Lekrem> does anyone know a command to set the gnome theme?
[10:34] <neol> kitche: u mean in place of default i should put ro ??
[10:34] <Shaftino> Lekrem, System-->Pref-->Theme
[10:34] <gerro> alesan: screen is how you run multiple processes through one terminal
[10:34] <kitche> neol: no after
[10:34] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: yeah apple is not a software company :(
[10:34] <alesan> Flannel, I do because I have to ifconfig and iwconfig the remote pc as well
[10:34] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: but there's livecd.gnustep.org ?
[10:34] <jrib> Lekrem: it's a gconf key, you can use gconftool-2 with the proper key (I forget offhand what it is)
[10:34] <neol> kitche: after default ??
[10:34] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: the project runs on all three (windows, mac os x, linux/bsd/unix)
[10:34] <alesan> gerro, I know screen very well but it's really not suited for what I need
[10:35] <marcos> hello guys, my name is Marcos, from Brazil...
[10:35] <kitche> neol: like default,ro, etc
[10:35] <Lekrem> Shaftino, i mean an actual command to set it
[10:35] <neol> kitche: with space or without space
[10:35] <PIPBoy_> Shaftino: damn thats pretty lame, but ill post something on the forums and ill see if i can get a response. My name on the ubuntuforums.org is PIPBoy2000k so look for that post in like 2 days for something on it
[10:35] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: the big difference: lack of software
[10:35] <gerro> alesan: that is what I said, its not what your looking for
[10:35] <alesan> gerro, :) thank you anyway
[10:35] <Flannel> alesan: You can ssh in as a different user than the one you are, you don't have to be root locally to be root remotely
[10:35] <weeeeb> RoC_MasterMind: what do you mean by root owned?
[10:35] <jrib> marcos: welcome, if you'd like to chat with other brazillians, they hang out at #ubuntu-br
[10:35] <dcarros> system->preference->theme
[10:35] <Shaftino> PIPBoy_, I will, would be nice to get a fix for that :)
[10:35] <gerro> alesan: perhaps make a script of your own to spawn 10 root sessions and set it as one of your shell commands
[10:35] <pinp> hello all, whenever I quit gvim I get "Usage:program_name [address] [:port] " printed at the terminal, I saw one post with this issue on the forums but no solution, anyone have any ideas on what the solution could be?
[10:35] <marcos> Ok, thanks Jrib
[10:35] <neol> kitche: ok got u.... but u told ur using console... how can u work on lynx and irssi at the same time... ok one thing can work at a time ??
[10:35] <AnObfuscator> Tarzeau: I've seen that, yeah. I tried to get windowmaker to run under 7.04, but I had a ton of issues with it
[10:36] <kitche> neol: umm you have multiple tty to use
[10:36] <RoC_MasterMind> weeeeb, the package managers run as root so they can modify the system, the lockfile it made was thus owned by root
[10:36] <neol> kitche: ok ur using ctrl+alt+and different function keys right ??
[10:36] <kitche> neol: from tty0 to tty6 but I have tty0 to tty7
[10:36] <gerro> alesan: the script could input your password and pipe it to all the sudo commands
[10:36] <weeeeb> RoC_MasterMind; how can i ovveride this
[10:37] <alesan> Flannel, gerro please I do not need advice to how work, thank you. It's not that I want you to understand me but I know what I do. So the question, is it possible in your opinion, to give root commands with my normal user without sudo, or should I enable root login directly?
[10:37] <RoC_MasterMind> weeeeb, it's a system file, sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[10:37] <NET||abuse> anyone know how i can install awn? any deb available?
[10:37] <alesan> gerro, I am not going to type any password! at 2500 meters in cold weather or under bright sunshine that's not acceptable!
[10:37] <msl> alesan:    man sudoers
[10:37] <bruenig> alesan, that is the same thing as being root then
[10:37] <kml> hi
[10:37] <kitche> alesan: only root can do it but you probably won't get help if you do
[10:38] <NET||abuse> Generally i'm looking for a good dock application? anything out there that's good?
[10:38] <bruenig> alesan, you can give yourself universal nopasswd in /etc/sudoers but you will still need to use sudo, it just wouldn't ask you for a password
[10:38] <mobutu> alesan: you can setup sudo not need a password
[10:38] <alesan> kitche, help for what?
[10:38] <Flannel> alesan: What you're doing is foolish and silly
[10:38] <weeeeb> RoC_MasterMind: "rm: cannot remove `/var/lib/dpkg/lock': No such file or directory kyle@sabis:~$"
[10:38] <weeeeb> that was what came up in terminal
[10:38] <gerro> alesan: root isn't about entering password for dumb users hurting themselve its about system security and not accidentally wiping out your hard drive by one misplaced rm
[10:38] <alesan> mobutu, bruenig ok thanks :)
[10:38] <kitche> alesan: if you enable root
[10:38] <kml> i have a problem with installing java runtime env, do someone know how to install it
[10:38] <gerro> alesan: second off that solution might work or you could try pressing esc and going to grub recovery console during startup
[10:39] <alesan> gerro, that's nonsense, then "sudo" should not be allowed
[10:39] <surviver> jrib, ur still there? last question?
[10:39] <jrib> !java > kml (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:39] <RoC_MasterMind> weeeeb, try running your package tool again
[10:39] <jrib> surviver: sure
[10:39] <surviver> jrib, btw thx u helped me alot forward :) oke my question
[10:39] <weeeeb> nope same error, same place
[10:39] <aMohammed> hey guys, i'm doing a research and i'm looking to knowing the linux and mac os market share for desktops , any resources ?
[10:39] <gerro> alesan: actually the command to become root is su but sudo is a more secure method for it
[10:39] <kitche> kml: which version are you on
[10:39] <gaten> is anyone having problems on ubuntuforums.org? i can't use any of the BBC formatting options for posting a message (ie CODE, BOLD etc)
[10:39] <jrib> gaten: try #ubuntuforums
[10:39] <weeeeb> RoC_MasterMind : no dice.
[10:39] <mobutu> windows: 95 percent  mac: 4 percent   linux: 1 percent
[10:39] <gaten> jrib: thanks
[10:39] <marcos> Please guys, can you help me? How I can disable the "auto resize" icons from panel, when incresing the panel size in gnome (ubuntu) ?
[10:40] <alesan> bruenig, mobutu you know typying 5 characters more (for "sudo ") is not acceptable in a few very special occasions :(
[10:40] <anon2000> anyone know if there is a command that will display my monitor's refresh rate? Nvidia Settings says it is at 60hz but Preferences>Screen Resolution says it's at 50hz. which is the corret one?
[10:40] <neol> aMohammed: google is ur best friend
[10:40] <gerro> alesan: I don't know what sudo -i does but I normally use sudo su to become root
[10:40] <mobutu> alesan: i guess you're doomed, or ... just log in as root
[10:40] <alesan> bruenig, mobutu eben if sudo is passwordless then
[10:40] <Flannel> gerro: sudo -i is what you should be doing instead of sudo su.
[10:40] <gerro> Flannel: why?
[10:40] <bruenig> alesan, then you will need to login as root
[10:40] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: what impressed me most was the booze study that said this (among other things): It isn't faster to code on NeXTstep; you just have to write less of it. The revolution is "getting rid of software".
[10:40] <msl> alesan: if you don't want to type the extra 5 characters, set an alias in your .bashrc
[10:40] <neol> mobutu: i think that is wrong
[10:41] <gerro> Flannel: I don't want to enter sudo everytime I have to do several processes at root so I do sudo su for a root prompt
[10:41] <aMohammed> i tried but no results .. any representations in millions ?
[10:41] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: something java people definitely didn't grasp
[10:41] <mobutu> neol: he already wants to run commands as root with sudo and no password, i don't see how logging in as root is going to hurt him anymore!
[10:41] <kml> kitche, version of what?
[10:41] <kitche> kml: ubuntu
[10:41] <alesan> mobutu, thanks, that's what I will do in those special occasions. too bad (imHo) ubuntu makes it hard to get root. it seems security through obscurity to me
[10:41] <surviver> jrib, u just gave me with chown -r $user: /media/... permissions to my account (user) but what if i want to undo that i just have to type chown -r $root: /media?
[10:41] <RoC_MasterMind> aMohammed, look on google, I think Mac and linux have equal share.
[10:41] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: i've read through many pages of java code that can be replaced with a few unix shell oneliners
[10:41] <surviver> jrib, so only root has access?
[10:41] <gerro> alesan: no its just dumb noobs not knowing how to use sudo command, try sudo su it should work
[10:41] <dcarros> if you can see the screen characters go with the NVidia setting and do not woory about the refresh rates
[10:41] <alesan> msl, then what's different to be root directly :D
[10:41] <mobutu> alesan: if you really desperately need a '#' prompt... just use  'sudo bash'
[10:41] <neol> mobutu: i meant about the figues u mentioned about windows linux and mac users
[10:42] <Flannel> gerro: `sudo -i` gives you a root prompt
[10:42] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: That is pretty cool. Well, that's because java is a retarded programming language. My school uses it almost exclusively for teaching -- when we switch to C for our operating systems class, so many future "engineers" are completely lost
[10:42] <kml> kitche, version 7.04
[10:42] <RoC_MasterMind> aMohammed, it's impossible to tell how big Linux is because it is so freely redistributed.
[10:42] <kitche> !java | kml
[10:42] <ubotu> kml: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[10:42] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: haha, no wonder, is it?
[10:42] <neol> Flannel: su - also give roo prompt gerro
[10:42] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: have you tried objective-c?
[10:42] <jrib> surviver: yeah, but note the "-r" is not correct, it needs to be capital: "-R"  and be sure you specify /media/sda4 specifically, not just /media
[10:42] <kitche> kml instead of sun-java5-jre put sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre
[10:42] <alesan> mobutu, ok I know I can do that but as I open many terminals... ok thank you guys now I know what to do :)
[10:42] <gerro> flannel mobutu alesan neol what is difference between sudo su, sudo bash, and sudo -i?
[10:42] <marcos> someone knows the "gnome-quick-lounge" ?
[10:42] <surviver> jrib, yes i mean but well its shorter lol :D
[10:42] <msl> alesan: I thikn what you want to do can be accomplished by setting aliases in ~/.bashrc and setting the commands you desire to not require a password in /etc/sudoers
[10:42] <aMohammed> ok , i'll try again with google
[10:42] <kmasta> the volume on my flash plugin is really really low, I can barely hear stuff on youtube. how should I fix it
[10:43] <neol> gerro: i guess they is no difference
[10:43] <kitche> gerro: sudo -i is logged while the others aren't
[10:43] <goochy> when trying to connect using the terminal server client I get this error ---- "vncviewer: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[10:43] <goochy> "  can anybody help me resolve this issue?
[10:43] <surviver> jrib, and chown = chmod?
[10:43] <warlock_handler> hi guys
[10:43] <mobutu> alesan: i don't see how any other unix distribution makes this easier.  every other unix distribution, to run commands as root... usually you have to actually type in a password.  i dont think that is a giant hassle
[10:43] <mrsn0> goochy install "build-essential" from apt/synaptic
[10:43] <alesan> gerro, should be different way to handle login scripts (and so variables aliases paths etc)
[10:43] <jrib> surviver: no, chown is used to change the owner and group of a file, chmod is used to change permissions that the owner, group, and others have
[10:43] <kml> kitche, thanks
[10:43] <alesan> mobutu, with slackware, gentoo, fedora you can actually login as root
[10:43] <gerro> kitche neol flannel alesan mubotu: logged? I have syslog klogd and every other logger off my system...
[10:44] <mobutu> alesan: so?  why can't you in ubuntu ?
[10:44] <goochy> msg mrsn0 not exactly sure how to do that... just go to the synaptic mgr and choose that repository?
[10:44] <surviver> jrib, ow oke great :)
[10:44] <mobutu> i log in as root all the time
[10:44] <l2s> heya
[10:44] <slugicide> Is http://allostalk.com/ a fishing site?  It looks like ubuntuforums.org but isn't.  Prolly snatched my password.
[10:44] <mrsn0> goochy you can open the terminal and type sudo aptitude install build-essential
[10:44] <mobutu> alesan: just give root a password:  passwd root
[10:44] <kitche> gerro: sudo keeps a log of commands ran when you do sudo bash or sudo su the commands are no longer logged
[10:44] <l2s> quick q - which ftp server is the easiest to manage without having to give every user a local account?
[10:44] <mrsn0> or alternatively yes, search for build-essential in synaptic, then tick the box and click apply to install
[10:44] <neol> gerro: u dont have to mention everybodies name ....
[10:44] <_Roman> Hello, I am wanting to install ubuntu 7.04 (feisty) on machine with windows XP already installed.  I want to have a dual boot machine.  How do I go about getting ubuntu to resize the existing NTFS partition?  Are there any documents?
[10:44] <gerro> alesan: you could edit one of the startup scripts in /etc which have root privs to startup 10 console sessions for root when you login... I guess
[10:44] <alesan> mobutu, in the others distribution that's default. ubuntu makes it difficult
[10:44] <mobutu> alesan: then look up how to let whatever window manager you are using, to let you log in as root.
[10:45] <mobutu> alesan: it's just one step.  not a big deal.
[10:45] <alesan> mobutu, yes of course
[10:45] <RoC_MasterMind> _Roman, do the manual partitioning, it will show you your partitions and allow you to make changes./
[10:45] <mobutu> typing 'passwd root' is not that bad
[10:45] <alesan> mobutu, is that documented anyway?
[10:45] <mobutu> i have no idea
[10:45] <don_jarmo> Hi!
[10:45] <kitche> !sudo | alesan on this link
[10:45] <ubotu> alesan on this link: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:45] <ParanoyaM> How can i restart printer service
[10:45] <gerro> neol neol neol: but I like your name its awesome d00d (^_^) 'O
[10:45] <mobutu> alesan: i guess you haven't blown away important stuff as root yet.  it's very exciting.
[10:46] <_Roman>  RoC_MasterMind:  So if I change the size of a partition, it will note delete the data on that partition?
[10:46] <jrib> alesan: logging into X as root is a stupid thing to do
[10:46] <neol> gerro: thanks ;)
[10:46] <surviver> jrib, mzz must do sonthing wrong :s i do chown -R $root: /media/sda4 but the user doesnt change from my account to root back ?
[10:46] <alesan> mobutu, I do not see how a rm -rf as user can be better than root's
[10:46] <alesan> at least root can wipe away programs or reinstallable things
[10:46] <drewby> hey all
[10:46] <RoC_MasterMind> _Roman, no, it is non-destructive.
[10:46] <linuxnub> join #/ubotu
[10:46] <drewby> can anyone tell me
[10:46] <linuxnub> join /ubotu
[10:46] <drewby> mount -t fat32 dev/fd0 /home/drewby/floppy
[10:46] <alesan> users can actually delete DATA which is far more difficult to recover :)
[10:46] <jrib> surviver: not $root, you do:  sudo chown -R root: /media/sda4    without the $
[10:47] <drewby> why is that not working?
[10:47] <gerro> _Roman: unless you set aside some space when installing xp or the seller of your computer preinstalled for you and shoved xp installation stuff on separate partition then no you will have to reinstall xp and linux through dual boot method
[10:47] <surviver> jrib, ow thx lol excuse me:D
[10:47] <nhy> does anyone know how to solve "undefined reference to `vtable for KWD::Decorator'"
[10:47] <anirudha> Hi everyone! Is anyone familiar with installing SVN on ubuntu?
[10:47] <drewby> I get "unknown filesystem type: fat32"
[10:47] <RoC_MasterMind> alesan, a rm -rf as root will delete everythign including yor user data.
[10:47] <goochy> msrn0: I installed the build-essential and still get that error...
[10:47] <mobutu> alesan: typing "rm -rf /" accidentally is a lot less destructive than "rm -rf /" as root
[10:47] <alesan> mobutu, but of course, I retrieved data accidentally deleted from a reiserfs partition using grep on the partition device :)
[10:47] <MrClean> Do anyone know how to edit wma tag?
[10:47] <SanteeCA> !svn | anirudha
[10:47] <ubotu> anirudha: svn is Subversion: an open-source revision control system, which aims to be a compelling replacement for CVS. See http://subversion.tigris.org/
[10:47] <nhy> anirudha: sudo apt-get install svn?
[10:47] <imbecile_> hey guys, how do i make my keyring not need a password to connect to ap's?
[10:47] <jrib> anirudha: sudo aptitude install subversion
[10:48] <gerro> alesan Roc_MasterMind: he means rm -Rf as root
[10:48] <linuxnub> !microsoft office
[10:48] <alesan> mobutu, yes, as I said, it will delete ALSO things that are easily reinstallable anyway
[10:48] <don_jarmo> I have a question im using screenlets now listening to be more precise. it doesnt always show album art and i have the art for it. is there any place i can put the custom art to get the screenlet to show it when i play my music?
[10:48] <alesan> ok thank you good night
[10:48] <drewby> mount -t fat32 dev/fd0 /home/drewby/floppy
[10:48] <surviver> jrib, thx iam really getting this how it works :) thx well cya later  ;)
[10:48] <RoC_MasterMind> linuxnub, what do you want?
[10:48] <drewby> why is that not working?
[10:49] <_Roman> gerro:  I have a machine with one hard disk which has Windows XP already installed on one partition which takes up the entire disk.  I want to resize the partition so that I do not have to reinstall Windows XP and can install Ubuntu.  Is that possible?
[10:49] <kitche> drewby: vfat instead of fat32
[10:49] <bruenig> drewby, and /dev instead of dev
[10:49] <linuxnub> trying to get M$ office 2000 working in wine having issues
[10:49] <kitche> drewby: and it's /dev/fd0 not dev/fd0
[10:49] <drewby> Kitche: Thanks much
[10:49] <mobutu> _Roman: easy.  boot your machine with a ubuntu live cd, and shrink the partition with gparted
[10:49] <MrClean> Do anyone know how to edit wma tag?
[10:49] <jrib> surviver: np, note that the synax I gave you using "root:" is short for "root:root" so you are changing both the user (the left side of the :) and the group (the right side of the :) to root
[10:49] <gerro> _Roman: there are some programs that might be able to do that but it is beyond my knowing and possibly costly $
[10:49] <imbecile_> linuxnub,  try open office
[10:49] <bruenig> MrClean, if anything can easytag will
[10:49] <SanteeCA> _Roman: yep.. during the install you'll be able to resize the windows partition to what you want leaving the remaining for Ubuntui
[10:49] <fuzzy_logic> hi people/..
[10:49] <RoC_MasterMind> linuxnub, the winehq website will give information about compatibilty with that application, did you check the application dataabaser on their site?
[10:49] <surviver> jrib, idd noticed it :D
[10:50] <gerro> _Roman: also if you want to see data on opposite systems you will need ext3 driver for windows and ntfs ng driver for linux I think
[10:50] <bruenig> _Roman, it is possible certainly, there is a partitioner in the ubuntu installer that will do that
[10:50] <surviver> _roman, i have the same i do dual boot with xp and ubuntu
[10:50] <bjwebb> has anyone got a card with a RT2571 chipset working on (K)(X)ubuntu with WPA?
[10:50] <MrClean> wma doesn't work on easytag
[10:50] <bruenig> MrClean, can it be tagged at all?
[10:50] <anirudha> SanteeCA, Thanks!
[10:50] <_Roman> thanks
[10:50] <anirudha> ubotu, Thanks!
[10:50] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[10:50] <anirudha> nhy, Thanks!
[10:51] <SanteeCA> anirudha: np
[10:51] <surviver> _Roman, u ll have to get a partition formatted like one of 10 gig resize it to ext 3 primary and u can set ubuntu on it and u will dual boot
[10:51] <anirudha> jrib, Thanks!

[10:55] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto

[10:55] <geeksauce> is there an easy way i can switch to a different GUI like KDE or blackbox without having to install a new OS like kubuntu?
[10:56] <mobutu> Phydoux: i guess if you have a seperate /HOME partition, it won't be overwritten in the install.  do you have a seperate home partition?
[10:56] <lbawinowns> geeksuace, I read in the files in Ubuntu u can
[10:56] <kitche> geeksauce: just install the window manager/DE and pick it at the login screen under Sessions
[10:56] <mobutu> Phydoux: or could you just copy your bookmarks somewhere, it's a tiny file, then reinstall
[10:56] <jess> any to pvt chat?
[10:56] <mobutu> are you hot?
[10:56] <geeksauce> kitche, alright thanks
[10:56] <Phydoux> I havent exported them. Or is there a certain file they're in?

[10:57] <bjwebb> has anyone got a card with a RT2571 chipset working on Uubuntu with WPA?
[10:57] <mobutu> Phydoux: yeah it's 'bookmarks.html'  i think. or you could jsut copy the .mozilla directory  . or you could copy your entire home directory!  do you know how to use tar and gzip ?
[10:57] <Phydoux> Ya.
[10:58] <megasquid> how would i see how much ram is currently being used in ubunutu?
[10:58] <mobutu> Phydoux: in firefox go to Bookmark Manager, 'export' your bookmarks into a file.  save that file
[10:58] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: no, I haven't. I've looked briefly at the syntax, etc, but I've been focused on C & Java (for school) and php & C# (for various jobs)
[10:58] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: I want to play around with it soon, though. From what I've read, it's a really nice language
[10:58] <niuq> what is the different between compiz and beryl?
[10:58] <Phydoux> I think I can log into a terminal to do that. Mosilla is under the home directory?
[10:58] <Ind[y] > Please, can somebody give me a default .bashrc?
[10:58] <mobutu> megasquid: top
[10:58] <bjwebb> niuq: beryl is a fork of compiz
[10:58] <mobutu> Ind[y] : do you have /etc/skel/.bashrc
[10:58] <neil_> Hey.. Can anyone help me set up streaming media, ie from the bbc news site/ Videos don't load, I've installed w32codecs, restricted-packages, and tried both gxine and mplayer browser plugins
[10:58] <imbecile_> any VMware experts in here? I have an xp vm that i need to get to connect to the internet with a program  for work.. I do not have a dual boot so i need to figure this out in VMware and i do have to get this done.. vista works but my program doesnt run on vista also my slackware vm works.. I cant figure out why
[10:58] <goochy> when trying to connect using the terminal server client I get this error ---- "vncviewer: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory (already tried build-essential install...)
[10:58] <Bassetts> is there a gui to configure dual screen?
[10:58] <neol> niuq: in simple terms beryl is latest
[10:58] <bjwebb> niuq: beryl has more plugins by default
[10:58] <megasquid> mobutu: i get 'keterm': unknown terminal type
[10:59] <bjwebb> niuq: but they're going to merge back together some time
[10:59] <megasquid> mobutu, but i'm using aterm so weird error
[10:59] <HymnToLife> Bassetts, if you have a nvidia card, yes. If you don't, I don't know :p
[10:59] <Ind[y] > mobutu: no
[10:59] <Bassetts> HymnToLife, intel
[10:59] <mobutu> Phydoux: it's ~/.mozilla i think  .  you should run firefox, export your bookmarks to a file, save that file, then later 'import' it
[10:59] <geeksauce> kitche, what is the name of that package?
[10:59] <neil_> Hey.. Can anyone help me set up streaming media, ie from the bbc news site/ Videos don't load, I've installed w32codecs, restricted-packages, and tried both gxine and mplayer browser plugins
[10:59] <Scunizi> imbecile_ so you have a prog. that you need to use in windows on the vm portion of the machine?
[10:59] <reed026> !hi | mobutu
[10:59] <lbawinowns> megasquid , shelling "top" doesn't work for you?
[10:59] <ubotu> mobutu: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[10:59] <mobutu> megasquid: set your term to something else then.  export TERM=vt100
[10:59] <bjwebb> neil_: you need realplayer
[11:00] <mobutu> Ind[y] : are you running ubuntu ?
[11:00] <walck> hi all. Would anybody know what is needed to make a SD/MMC card reader visable as a device? I can see it in lspci and hardware information window, but no device is mapped for it
[11:00] <niuq> bjwebb: so compiz should be more stable?
[11:00] <imbecile_> Scunizi,  yes and I have dumped windows so no dual boot.. i was hoping i could just use an xp vm
[11:00] <mobutu> reed026: hi?
[11:00] <niuq> bjwebb: i have had problems with beryl
[11:00] <Phydoux> mobutu, The problem is I cant load firefox. When I log in It goes as far as the orange screen. I cant load anything. I have to start it in safe mode (or whatever it's called) and use terminal
[11:01] <Scunizi> imbecile_ do you have the vm already setup and running with xp installed?
[11:01] <imbecile_> Scunizi,  yes
[11:01] <neil_> bjwebb: Nope, I'm using the wmp streams
[11:01] <Phydoux> Thats what I think my problem is. Beryl & my nvidia driver update
[11:01] <deg> i'm having problems with samba. I am not able to browse my windows network or connect to a windows share, also not able to access shares with smb:// method. I CAN manually mount a share & access it, but speed is extremely slow- around 500 KB/s on a gigabit lan. Any ideas?
[11:01] <imbecile_> Scunizi,  i can reinstall np if i need to however.. i just need to get this working
[11:02] <Scunizi> imbecile_,  k. so I'm not sure what your real question is.   What program are you trying to use inside xp?
[11:02] <mobutu> Phydoux: look in your ~/.mozilla/firefox directory  .  you'll eventually find a file named bookmarks.html  .  when you finally get firefox running, 'import' that file in firefox bookmark manager
[11:02] <niuq> Phydoux: i had a weird problem with beryl, when i tried to open netbeans, a orange screen appears
[11:02] <StatusXxX> im noob but i love it!!!
[11:02] <StatusXxX> ubuntu <3!
[11:02] <niuq> Phydoux: the solution was, turn of beryl ^^
[11:02] <jetscreamer> less than 3 ?
[11:03] <Phydoux> Gotcha! BBIAB... I'm gonna go and try to back that stuff up.
[11:03] <lbawinowns> jetscreamer "love" , it's shaped as heart
[11:03] <imbecile_> Scunizi,  its a program that sends errors for a project at work... once i get connected i will be okay.. thats all i really need
[11:03] <geeksauce> anyone know the name of the window manager package?
[11:03] <pi3> do you recommend not to have a ssh service activated and the port open? i mean, is it a big security hole?
[11:03] <Phydoux> niuq, My problem is I can log in but then the GUI doesnt complete loading
[11:03] <jetscreamer> lopsided fell over on it's side heart? sounds like a heart attack...
[11:03] <Phydoux> BBIAB
[11:04] <Flannel> pi3: It just opens you up to external logins.  Not really a hole per sey.  Just make sure you have strong passwords, and haven't enabled the root account.
[11:04] <Scunizi> imbecile_: so is the program installed on your xp/vm?  does it work?  or are you just having problems configuring that program to connect?
[11:05] <pi3> Flannel: ok, thank you. I think my root account is disabled because i couldn't login with it
[11:05] <warlock_handler> hi guys
[11:05] <imbecile_> Scunizi,  i havent even installed it yet on my vm.. i just need to get the xp vm to connect to the internet
[11:06] <Flannel> pi3: right.  If you haven't re-enabled it, it's disabled.
[11:06] <pi3> Flannel: is the ssh connection encrypted?
[11:06] <Scunizi> imbecile_: ahhhhh
[11:06] <Flannel> pi3: yeah, that's the point of ssh.
[11:06] <Scunizi> !
[11:06] <slavik> pi3: ssh is always encrypted :)
[11:06] <slavik> ssh = encrypted telnet :)
[11:06] <pi3> =)
[11:07] <Scunizi> imbecile_: ahhha!  so that's the issue .. xp is not connecting to the internet.  Did you set the vm up with a bridged connection or direct?
[11:07] <nullpuppy> has anyone experienced problems with nm-applet in 7.04 recently? everything was working fine up until i turned my laptop off on thursday, and now i cannot connect to any networks using nm-applet (works fine from cli, however).
[11:07] <nullpuppy> i have duplicated this on another box too, fresh install as of today.
[11:07] <imbecile_> Scunizi, i set it up as nat
[11:07] <geeksauce> anyone for switching desktop environments?  i don't know the package name
[11:08] <Scunizi> imbecile_: nat from the host or direct to the router?
[11:08] <Flannel> geeksauce: what are you looking to switch into?
[11:08] <CTho_> how would I do the equivalent of  mapping a network drive under windows?
[11:09] <lbawinowns> geeksauce , like you want to use KDE for Ubuntu?
[11:09] <imbecile_> Scunizi,  i made it in easyvmx.. i set the ethernet to nat (the default)
[11:09] <geeksauce> Flannel, i just wanted to try a few others lie KDE and blackbox
[11:10] <lbawinowns> geeksauce , without changing OS?
[11:10] <Flannel> geeksauce: alright.  Well, blackbox, fluxbox, etc are in the repos (most/all in universe), KDE is 'kubuntu-desktop' if you want to try the Kubuntu thing.
[11:10] <imbecile_> Scunizi,  as you can tell I'm not exactly sure what i'm doing
[11:10] <anon2000> anyone know if there is a command that will display my monitor's refresh rate? Nvidia Settings says it is at 60hz but Preferences>Screen Resolution says it's at 50hz. which is the correct one?
[11:10] <geeksauce> Flannel, is there a way i can select which one i want to run when i login?
[11:11] <Scunizi> imbecile_: it's strange that it's not connecting.  Hve you checked the Control Panel/Network connections (in windows) to see if there is a connection that's setup?
[11:11] <Flannel> geeksauce: At login, There's a "session" button.  Most should put an entry there by default.
[11:11] <geeksauce> Flannel, thanks man
[11:11] <imbecile_> Scunizi, thats not set up.. I didnt think i needed to.. vista worked right out of the box to connect in a vm
[11:11] <hugorafaeL> can someone help me with my sound device?
[11:11] <Soli1> hi People, anyone here made pcsx2 work on ubuntu?
[11:12] <thufir007> I'm thinking of switching to ubuntu to get my samsung ml-2510 printer going, but I'm not totally sure that it'll be better in ubuntu...?
[11:12] <Soli1>  i get this error on console : ZeroGS: OGL WARNING: multiple render targets not supported, some effects might look bad
[11:12] <slavik> thufir007: than in what?
[11:12] <Scunizi> imbecile_: you mentioned easyvmx  .. not sure what that is... is it VMWare?  did you install an image of xp and just input your license number?
[11:12] <magnetron> !sound | hugorafaeL
[11:12] <ubotu> hugorafaeL: 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

[11:13] <thufir007> I'm using fedora at the moment.
[11:14] <hugorafaeL> ma
[11:14] <hugorafaeL> magnetron:
[11:14] <Scunizi> imbecile_: hang on.. I'll look at it.
[11:14] <hugorafaeL> i cant double click on the volume control
[11:14] <magnetron> !enter
[11:14] <imbecile_> Scunizi,  I set up windows but i cant connect to register the os
[11:14] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[11:14] <sldkfj> I'm gonna install the new nvidia driver.   I have amd 64 cpu but using the 32bit os .... which driver should I get?    the  x86  or  x64
[11:14] <hugorafaeL> oh well
[11:14] <Scunizi> imbecile_: right .. not internet connection.
[11:14] <hugorafaeL> theres nobody can help me?

[11:15] <ubotu> hugorafael: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[11:15] <magnetron> hugorafaeL: what happens when you double click the speaker icon in the upper corner?
[11:16] <hugorafaeL> magnetron:  it says there is not Gtream module
[11:16] <hugorafaeL> gstream*
[11:16] <Scunizi> imbecile_: looks like the vm image you created wasn't the right way to do it... You can install VMWare Server and install XP directly.  Very easy.. and .. it works..
[11:16] <magnetron> hugorafaeL: which gstream module?
[11:16] <hugorafaeL> magnetron:  dont know
[11:17] <imbecile_> hugorafaeL, I find the people in here are more helpful than anywhere else.. if someone knows how to help you they will get around to you.. kinda just have to be patient
[11:17] <magnetron> hugorafaeL: give us the error message
[11:17] <hugorafaeL> magnetron:  my ubuntu is in portuguese

[11:17] <thufir007> I'm going by http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=341621 , but I don't quite follow it.  (reading again)
[11:17] <imbecile_> Scunizi,  well my vista and slackware vm's connect so i dont relly think that is right
[11:18] <lbawinowns> magnetron , seriously, these local irc-channells are jokes...
[11:18] <Scunizi> imbecile_: you might also look at the bottom right of the vm screen and see if the nic card is turned on in the vm.
[11:18] <hakanw> if I want a bunch of mount --bind foo/ bar/ to be done on startup, should I put those in fstab or somewhere else?
[11:18] <magnetron> lbawinowns: not all channels are like #ubuntu-se ;)
[11:19] <imbecile_> Scunizi,  the only thing i see in the bottom corner is the grab input dialog
[11:19] <magnetron> lbawinowns: (i hope)
[11:19] <Soli1> pcsx2 anyone?
[11:19] <sldkfj> I'm installing the new nvidia driver  my computer runs an 'amd64 cpu' w/ the 32bit os   .... so which driver should I get?      The  NVIDIA-Linux-x86  or  x64
[11:19] <DaFreak> I'm having problems getting my Pocket PC (Windows Mobile 2003 SE) to sync via multisync. I'm able to successfully do a sync start via console but if I do a synce-pstatus I get an error. Could somebody lend a hand?
[11:19] <DaFreak> The error is : synce-pstatus: Could not find configuration at path '(Default)' btw
[11:19] <jetscreamer> sldkfj: you wil have problems, 64bit kernel w/32bit userland
[11:20] <miguel> Saludos
[11:20] <miguel> Hi all
[11:20] <jetscreamer> if 32bit kernel maybe not
[11:20] <Scunizi> imbecile_: could be somewhere else.. I run on a dapper system.. might be a little different.. It should be in the same location that you turn on sound (typically)
[11:20] <Scunizi> imbecile_: I'm also not on my computer right now so I'm trying this from memory.
[11:21] <jetscreamer> sldkfj: http://nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=72490  might help, not sure
[11:21] <thufir007> system-printer-config is unrecognized :(
[11:21] <sldkfj> thanks
[11:21] <Dezine> I'm used to mysql on windows which installs it as a service so I'm lost on Ubuntu with it.. How do I start it and/or where is the configuration file located? I installed it from synaptic and I'm not sure what to do next.
[11:22] <Scunizi> imbecile_: sometimes a graphic symbol along the edges of the vm ware window... on my machine it shows up on the bottom right corner of the vm widow.
[11:22] <imbecile_> hmmmm, I cant figure this out and i dont want to have to install xp on my system to get this stupid thing going
[11:23] <madman91> when gnome unmounts a volume it automounts.. what command does it use?
[11:23] <imbecile_> Scunizi,  i found it.. do i set to nat,bridged,or host-only?
[11:24] <imbecile_> Scunizi,  the box is checked to be active
[11:24] <JordiGH> Can I copy a directory structure with sftp?
[11:24] <Scunizi> imbecile_: try bridged.. you can always change it.
[11:24] <hylje> Dezine: /etc/init.d/mysql [start|restart|stop|..] 
[11:24] <hylje> Dezine: /etc/mysql/my.cnf
[11:25] <JordiGH> I mean, I can with scp, but I don't see how to install an ssh server on the machine I'm copying to, which is a Windows machine.
[11:25] <audiocrew> can any of you help me compile a new version of ALSA so I can hopefully use Line-in on my sound card?
[11:25] <imbecile_> Scunizi,  no luck with bridged
[11:26] <audiocrew> I am having some trouble gettingit to complie
[11:26] <audiocrew> and there are no .debs to install it  with
[11:26] <imbecile_> Scunizi,  nat doesnt work either
[11:26] <Scunizi> imbecile_: only one left!
[11:26] <ibanex> audiocrew: wont the default ALSA work?
[11:26] <imbecile_> Scunizi,  ive actually already tried it :(
[11:27] <audiocrew> nope, I have a nvidia integrated chip, and while output works fine, this computer is going to be used for recording, and I need input to work as well
[11:27] <Scunizi> imbecile_: you might try NAT again but then in windows, disconnect it's connection and reconnect to regain an ip.
[11:27] <audiocrew> its a Nvidia MCP51 integreated audio chip
[11:27] <FallenA> hello
[11:27] <ibanex> audiocrew: are you sure the inputs aren't on mute? i use this box for recording, i had to push up the volumes through alsamixer
[11:27] <Scunizi> imbecile_: or if there is an option, just renew ip
[11:27] <slavik> audiocrew: nforce 3?
[11:27] <audiocrew> nforce 410
[11:28] <imbecile_> Scunizi,  i get to connection to disconnect because there is no connection
[11:28] <audiocrew> and I check the mixer inputs
[11:28] <andreas__> Can someone plase tell me how to install some fonts I downloaded via Firefox?
[11:28] <slavik> ahh, nforce2 :P
[11:28] <audiocrew> nothing
[11:28] <slavik> I think
[11:28] <madman91> when gnome unmounts a volume it automounts.. what command does it use?
[11:28] <h4ngedm4n> microphone input doesnt work, or the one in the back?
[11:28] <slavik> audiocrew: when you check the mixer, did you select the line-in for recording?
[11:28] <audiocrew> yes
[11:28] <kbrooks> so...
[11:28] <audiocrew> and both mic inputs, front and back, and line in dont give me anything
[11:28] <erUSUL> madman91: pumount ?
[11:28] <slavik> audiocrew: may I ask what type of stuff you will be encoding?
[11:28] <slavik> recording*
[11:28] <audiocrew> its a brand new dell c521
[11:29] <Scunizi> imbecile_: so inside of windows when you go to control panel/networking you do or do not see an internet/lan connection listed?
[11:29] <audiocrew> well, it was bought to record sermons at my local church, nothing super high quality
[11:29] <slavik> ahh, ok
[11:29] <madman91> erUSUL: doesnt seem so
[11:29] <ibanex> audiocrew: what recording app are you using?
[11:29] <audiocrew> we couldnt get one ofthe new Ubuntu dells, so we formatted our own
[11:29] <audiocrew> audacity
[11:29] <imbecile_> Scunizi,  it doesnt detect one
[11:30] <audiocrew> but I tried the built in sound recorder in gnome, and same result
[11:30] <FallenA> could i have a second of your time please anyone ?
[11:30] <slestak> i want to use dnsmasq for local dns, but still use the dhcp server on my wrt54g.  does that make sense?  iver looked at the man page and website, but it doesnt look like i can have dns only.  otherwise, how do icommunicate whaty leases the router has given out?
[11:30] <marltu> Hello. I have xchat and firefox. If firefox is open and i click on link on xchat, it opens that site in new tab. But if firefox isn't open, it doest anything. How do i set up xchat to open firefox
[11:30] <msl> FallenA: You can just ask your question :)

[11:30] <FallenA> i see theres a large room list
[11:30] <slavik> juan278: I would recomend a hex editor
[11:30] <slestak> actually, i do see how to disable the dhcp server in dnsmasq, but do not see how to seed the local dns
[11:31] <FallenA> i just need mp3s
[11:31] <FallenA> lol
[11:31] <marltu> FallenA, what's the problem?
[11:31] <slavik> juan278: ghex, or khex depending on which you like :)
[11:31] <Ravenndude`> Where is the text file that holds errors produced when booting?
[11:31] <audiocrew> slavik: any ideas?
[11:31] <Scunizi> imbecile_: k .... sorry but I'm lost at this point... I installed win2000pro in VMWare server directly and had no issues with a connection.  sorry.. hope someone here has more ideas.
[11:31] <FallenA> problem is i have cable and im only torrenting at max 9kbs
[11:31] <ibanex> audiocrew: i feel like if alsa got the outs correctly, the line in should be functioning... maybe just not enabled.  i wouldn't install anything new yet, just my opinion
[11:31] <slavik> audiocrew: besides making sure proper things are selected in alsa
[11:31] <slavik> audiocrew: are you using audacity to record?
[11:31] <audiocrew> ibanex: I have checked al lthe setting though
[11:31] <audiocrew> yes slavik
[11:32] <Phydoux> OK, I got my bookmarks and everything I wanted from the /home directory. I was going to re-install but since I have Ubuntu on this HD I'm using now I'll just port everything here I guess.
[11:32] <ibanex> audiocrew: yeah, then i dunno whats up. and you only have one sound card right?
[11:32] <audiocrew> I tried rotating through the avalible ALSA inputs and outputs
[11:32] <audiocrew> nothing works
[11:32] <imbecile_> Scunizi,  thanks for trying
[11:32] <audiocrew> yesh, its on-board sound
[11:32] <slavik> audiocrew: what did you select for recording in the preferences?
[11:32] <msl> FallenA: It could be limited by who you are downloading from.  Have you ever downloaded an ubuntu .iso and seen how fast it goes?
[11:32] <audiocrew> I selected line-in, but I get nothing through it
[11:32] <FallenA> well i download off the internet etc very fast
[11:32] <Scunizi> imbecile_: np... it was worth a shot.. sounds like "easyvmx" ain't so easy.
[11:32] <audiocrew> right now I have my iPod looping music through it, and get nothing
[11:32] <FallenA> my problems are restricted to just torrents
[11:32] <Dezine> I get an error when I try to start mysql
[11:32] <marltu> Hello. I have xchat and firefox. If firefox is open and i click on link on xchat, it opens that site in new tab. But if firefox isn't open, it does nothing. How do i set up xchat to open firefox
[11:32] <FallenA> and im a member of a large group so ive torrented befor
[11:33] <FallenA> there are plenty of seeds
[11:33] <Dezine> ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
[11:33] <slavik> audiocrew: I mean for device ... it should say something like "ALSA: Cardname: Input channel"
[11:33] <slavik> Dezine: is MySQL installed and running?
[11:33] <AlestorJN> Hey everyone
[11:33] <Lunar_Lamp> Dezine, what does "ls -l /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock" show?  If it's file not found, is mysql running?
[11:34] <hugorafaeL> i'm gonna go back to windows
[11:34] <hugorafaeL> cya every1
[11:34] <linuxnub> lol
[11:34] <slavik> hugorafaeL: I wish I could, my Windows install died :(
[11:34] <Dezine> To be honest I don't know if it's running, I installed it and was trying to run it
[11:34] <AlestorJN> Anyone know how I can make a partition bootable via Gparted?
[11:34] <slavik> AlestorJN: in gparted, right click on the partition, then "manage flags"
[11:34] <audiocrew> slavik: it just says Alsa, advanced linux arcitecture
[11:34] <CNTRLX> how may i apt get wireless-tools?
[11:34] <hugorafaeL> slavik:  i have no choice, my sound on ubuntu isnt working
[11:34] <Dezine> I installed it from synaptic, do I need to do something else first?
[11:34] <Scunizi> imbecile_: did you build your image using the Intel Pro/1000 device?
[11:34] <thufir007> does ubuntu do anything different with printers than fedora?
[11:34] <imbecile_> Scunizi, it sucks that it works for all the other stuff except the one i need for work..
[11:35] <linuxnub> !gparted | AlestorJN
[11:35] <slavik> thufir007: both use CUPS :)
[11:35] <ubotu> AlestorJN: GParted is is a !GUI partitioning program. Type  sudo apt-get install gparted  in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[11:35] <imbecile_> Scunizi,  yes
[11:35] <AlestorJN> Okay thanks slavik
[11:35] <AlestorJN> :)
[11:35] <slavik> audiocrew: Edit -> Preferences
[11:35] <Dezine> the command you told me to run says No such file or directory
[11:35] <CTho_> which package has smbmount?
[11:35] <h4ngedm4n> audiocrew: hey can you try testing your microphone in with sox? I had to double check to make sure mine works, I also have nforce 2 chipset
[11:35] <slavik> CTho_: samaba I think
[11:35] <Scunizi> imbecile_: that might be the issue... you should rebuild with vmxnet then install vmware tools.
[11:35] <slavik> ~info smbmount
[11:35] <slavik> !info smbmount
[11:35] <ubotu> Package smbmount does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[11:35] <Chore-Boy> hey guys, im having some problems bridging my network, ive been asking in #vbox for a couple hours, and nobody has said a word at all the whole time ive been in there (i think they are all asleep).... im reading this howto page: http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Automatic_Bridge_Ubuntu , everything seems to go alright, i follow all the steps, but when i try to start windowsxp in vbox it gives me a network error, and will not load the
[11:35] <Chore-Boy> OS...
[11:35] <AlestorJN> Thanks linuxnub, but I have it already.  Just needed instructions lol.
[11:35] <h4ngedm4n> audiocrew: rec test.wav and start speaking to it.  so we can isolate if it is an audacity problem or soundcard problem
[11:36] <imbecile_> Scunizi,  ill give it a try
[11:36] <kbrooks> slavik, no, install samba
[11:36] <CTho_> slavik, i have that package already :-\
[11:36] <hugorafaeL> i have sumthing to tell you guys
[11:36] <reed026> !ati
[11:36] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:36] <hugorafaeL> UBUNTU SUCKS
[11:36] <linuxnub> its easier just to do #mkisofs blah blah
[11:36] <audiocrew> slavik: sorry, wrong window, Audacity says HDA NVIDIA STAC92xx
[11:36] <thufir007> slavik:  how about drivers, though?  will the drivers be the same?  I see messages in the ubuntu forum from people who got "my" printer working?
[11:36] <Scunizi> imbecile_: nothing to loose with an image.. just a little time!  :)
[11:36] <reed026> ubuntu doesn't suck
[11:36] <sldkfj> jetscreamer, thanks again!
[11:36] <slavik> thufir007: don't know about that
[11:36] <ibanex> marltu: Settings, Advanced, URL Handlers...
[11:37] <slavik> audiocrew: in the "recording" frame, what devices do you have?
[11:37] <audiocrew> ALSA: HDA NVidia: STAC92xx ANalog (hw:0,0) to be exact slavik
[11:37] <CTho_> ah, maybe smbfs
[11:37] <Dezine> lol! what a looser, took the time to come in here to say Ubuntu sucks
[11:37] <ibanex> marltu: then add a new one, Name: Firefox    Command: firefox 'openURL(%s)'
[11:37] <audiocrew> other than that, it just has surround options
[11:37] <slavik> audiocrew: any others there?
[11:37] <vletmix> How can I download (in windows) all the packages necessary to install the build-essentials meta package?
[11:37] <DaveG|> when run gnome-open with an ftp link, it doesn't open up in nautilus it opens up in firefox instead... how do you change that?
[11:37] <h4ngedm4n> audiocrew: hey scroll up a bit, I typed some stuff for you to try
[11:38] <slavik> vletmix: you can't easily, sicne you need to know the needed package names and then dl each one separately
[11:38] <Ravenndude`> Where is the text file that holds errors produced when booting?
[11:38] <audiocrew> h4ngedm4n: I have my ipod looping through it, and it dosent record anything
[11:38] <vletmix> slavik: ahh yeah, makes sense - thanks
[11:38] <h4ngedm4n> audiocrew: recording with sox?  or audacity?
[11:38] <audiocrew> audacity
[11:39] <slavik> vletmix: what you can do is boot into ubuntu and select the needed package, then in File, there should be "export download script" or something
[11:39] <h4ngedm4n> try sox first, so we can see where the problem is
[11:39] <fuzzy_logic> hi people.. what is the best alternative to inkscape??
[11:39] <kitche> Ravenndude`: dmesg is one spot the other is syslog
[11:39] <slavik> print that file or something, then in windows download the debs, place them into proper places and install
[11:39] <h4ngedm4n> its just a command line tool, "rec test.wav"
[11:39] <vletmix> slavik: teriffic! I need to get ndiswrapper installed to support the wifi card, but it's hard to do this without having a working wireless card :)
[11:39] <slavik> vletmix: but the livecd has build-essential I think
[11:39] <Ravenndude`> kitche, is that in /etc?
[11:39] <slavik> vletmix: no wired?
[11:40] <DaveG|> when run gnome-open with an ftp link, it doesn't open up in nautilus it opens up in firefox instead... how do you change that?
[11:40] <erUSUL> fuzzy_logic: xaralx afaik
[11:40] <vletmix> slavik: no at the moment - thanks.. gotta run
[11:40] <audiocrew> slavik, ok what it says, is the record input in ALSA is set to line-in, but the only input volume controls have names like InVol and InMux
[11:40] <fuzzy_logic> erUSUL: thanks will give it a try
[11:40] <pyrotechnick> hey has anyone had any luck installing office 2007 under feisty?
[11:40] <audiocrew> but I dont know how to get input to travel on InVol ot InMux
[11:40] <slavik> audiocrew: please open the dropdown device list in recording in audacity and pastebin the screen (or use imageshack.us)
[11:41] <kritical> Does anyone know a program or command I can use to monitor traffic over an interface?
[11:41] <slavik> audiocrew: you may want to increase the volume on anything that looks like it is for recording and see if you can find "What you hear" channel there
[11:41] <imbecile_> Scunizi, http://img148.imageshack.us/img148/6027/screenshotpg2.png
[11:41] <h4wk0> pyrotechnick; Do you mean using wine to install it?
[11:41] <slavik> kritical: tcpdump, or wireshark, or ettercap
[11:42] <audiocrew> slavik, I have done that, all the volume is all the way up, and I cant get it to take a screen shot for some reason
[11:42] <pyrotechnick> h4wk0: yes
[11:42] <Scunizi> imbecile_: that's what I suspected.. there's no network card setup... is that image from the easy vmx created thingy
[11:42] <slavik> it's the printscr button :)
[11:42] <audiocrew> slavik, I know
[11:42] <audiocrew> its not doing anything
[11:42] <kitche> pyrotechnick: see if wine supports it but I would guess not
[11:42] <slavik> k, don't you get a promt to save the screenie?
[11:43] <pyrotechnick> h4wk0: thanks
[11:43] <imbecile_> Scunizi,  no thats the original.. im setting up vmxnet not

[11:43] <Scunizi> imbecile_: that's what I ment.. the original image..

[11:44] <slavik> audiocrew: please write down all alsa devices in the list (as the entry appears) and pastebin the list ...
[11:45] <Shadou> how do i connect to AOL using linux?
[11:45] <Dezine> mmm coke vanilla zero is pretty good
[11:45] <slavik> Shadou: AOL or AIM?
[11:45] <Shadou> AOL im on vacation and need dial up on my computer that had linux :(
[11:45] <wols_> Shadou: google "pengaol"
[11:45] <slavik> Shadou: for AOL look into wine ... don't know if it will work though
[11:45] <slavik> or that ...
[11:46] <mikl_> Does anyone have the "thunderbird" package - mozilla-thunderbird now depends on it, but I don't have it and it's not in the repositories :/
[11:46] <Jowi> !dialup
[11:46] <ubotu> You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[11:46] <DaveG|> when run gnome-open with an ftp link, it doesn't open up in nautilus it opens up in firefox instead... how do you change that?
[11:46] <slavik> Shadou: if you need to check mail, you can do it on the website I think and for messagin, use gaim/pidgin
[11:46] <wols_> !info icedove
[11:46] <ubotu> Package icedove does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[11:46] <slavik> !find smbmount
[11:46] <Ravenndude`> When booting, after the Ubuntu logo, I get multiple errors saying "Buffer I/O error on device hdd5, Logical Block #########" hdd5 is a larger FAT32 partition that I have mounting for a shared partition. Is there a way to fix this?
[11:46] <mikl_> !info thunderbird
[11:46] <ubotu> File smbmount found in smbfs
[11:46] <ubotu> Package thunderbird does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[11:47] <slavik> whoever needed smbmount, it's in smbfs :)
[11:47] <Dezine> well thanks for the help, I'll look around the web to see if I can get this going
[11:47] <sx66> how do I install thunderbird?
[11:47] <Jowi> mikl_, the name is mozilla-thunderbird
[11:47] <slavik> but smbmount will complain and tell you to use mount -t smbfs
[11:47] <Jowi> sx66, sudo apt-get install mozilla-thunderbird
[11:47] <sx66> k
[11:47] <mikl_> Jowi: yes, and that depends on "thunderbird"
[11:48] <Jowi> mikl_, no. package "thunderbird" does not exist
[11:48] <mikl_> Jowi: my problem exactly
[11:48] <wols_> mikl_: http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=thunderbird&searchon=names&subword=1&version=feisty&release=all
[11:48] <sx66> how do I sign in as root, it said unable to lock, Jowi
[11:48] <Jowi> sx66, you use "sudo"
[11:48] <slavik> sx66: do you have synaptic open?
[11:48] <Jowi> !sudo | sx66
[11:48] <ubotu> sx66: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[11:49] <audiocrew> slavik: http://pastebin.com/935519
[11:49] <mikl_> Description for my mozilla-thunderbird-package is now "Transition package for mozilla-thunderbird rename" [...]  This package can be purged at anytime once the thunderbird package has been installed.
[11:49] <sx66> duh, sorry Jowi
[11:50] <Jowi> sx66, nothing to be sorry about.
[11:50] <raf256> is there a payable support for ubuntu
[11:50] <DaveG|> when run gnome-open with an ftp link, it doesn't open up in nautilus it opens up in firefox instead... how do you change that?
[11:50] <gnomefreak> raf256: yes see ubuntu.com
[11:50] <DaveG|> :(
[11:50] <kitche> raf256: yes look at ubuntu.com
[11:50] <mikl_> raf256: yes, you can buy support from canonical.com
[11:50] <raf256> in polish language also?
[11:50] <mikl_> raf256: I doubt it :)
[11:51] <Ravenndude`> When booting, after the Ubuntu logo, I get multiple errors saying "Buffer I/O error on device hdd5, Logical Block #########" hdd5 is a larger FAT32 partition that I have mounting for a shared partition. Is there a way to fix this?
[11:51] <raf256> mikl_: hmm wouldnt it be nice to have it in native langs as well
[11:51] <Jowi> mikl_, check if your repositories are ok. "thunderbird" package does not exist in either edgy or feisty
[11:51] <kitche> Ravenndude`: get a new drive only way
[11:51] <audiocrew> slavik: http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/4299/screenshot1jl1.png
[11:51] <dezine> Confusing enough I got it to work, I instaled the mysql package and not the mysql-server package which I didn't think would be different
[11:51] <Ravenndude`> =\
[11:51] <Jowi> !info mozilla-thunderbird
[11:51] <mezziah_> raf256: didn't you discover the polish langpack yet?
[11:52] <ubotu> mozilla-thunderbird: Mozilla Thunderbird standalone mail client. In component main, is optional. Version 1.5.0.12-0ubuntu0.7.04 (feisty), package size 10638 kB, installed size 29708 kB
[11:52] <mikl_> Jowi: I wonder where it comes from then - It has the ubuntu-supported logo next to it in synaptic
[11:52] <graigsmith> im having a problem with f-spot. i have it set to act as my camera import program. and it works great on jpgs. but for some reason it wont import my pentax raw images (.pef) files. even though i can do it manually.  and f-spot can even preview the raw files.

[11:52] <graigsmith> oops.
[11:52] <Jowi> mikl_, see what ubotu said. that is the version you should install.
[11:52] <raf256> mezziah_: I ment the support
[11:52] <mezziah_> raf256: oh yes, sorry.
[11:52] <slavik> audiocrew: try selecting the front one and then plug something into that port
[11:53] <slavik> audiocrew: the prot should be in the front :)
[11:53] <lllllll> Sorry to be a noob, but I want to upgrade Rhythmbox to the latest version, and I can't see how to do it. I'm in the process of updated Feisty Fawn I just got running, so I'll be needing to upgrade a few prepackaged programs
[11:53] <Jowi> mikl_, it can come from another repository and that repository might have a higher version than the ubuntu one
[11:54] <audiocrew> slavik: still nothing
[11:54] <erUSUL> !latest | lllllll
[11:54] <ubotu> lllllll: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. 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.
[11:54] <swejax> Hey ppl. who knows how locales work in Ubuntu?
[11:54] <slavik> audiocrew: in audacity, if you click on the input sound bars, you can monitor the amplitude
[11:54] <slavik> swejax: please be mroe specific with your problem
[11:54] <audiocrew> yup, and the bars dont move
[11:55] <lllllll> Specifically however, the latest Rhythmbox has features that my current version doesn't. Like MTP support
[11:55] <swejax> ok - I am trying to get swedish characters working in terminals other than gnome-term
[11:55] <Jowi> mikl_, in synaptic go to Settings -> Repositories and make sure no 3rd party repos are selected. then close the window and click "reload"
[11:55] <swejax> slavik - it works fine in gnome-term
[11:55] <lllllll> So far the only instructions I've found on the forums involve terminal commands that spew meaningless errors
[11:55] <swejax> slavik: but not in Eterm or aterm
[11:55] <slavik> swejax: right
[11:55] <swejax> slavik: not very used to ubuntu :(
[11:55] <lllllll> So I want to know what I actually need to do rather than blindly copypasting code
[11:55] <graigsmith> anyone know about f-spot?
[11:56] <slavik> swejax: maybe eterm and aterm don't support utf8?
[11:56] <mezziah_> lllllll: did you already check their website at http://www.gnome.org/projects/rhythmbox/download.html ?
[11:56] <swejax> slavik: yeah -- i think thats it
[11:56] <ibanex> llllll: did you try something like "sudo apt-get update" then "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[11:56] <swejax> slavik: but how do I enable ISO-xxx ?
[11:56] <Ind[y] > Please, somebody give me a default ~/.bashrc
[11:56] <audiocrew> brb, going to reboot
[11:56] <lllllll> trying it now...
[11:56] <swejax> slavik: I've been messing around with localegen
[11:56] <sx66> what would be the servers name for gmail in thunderbird?
[11:56] <erUSUL> Ind[y] : there is one in /etc/skel/
[11:56] <Ind[y] > eracc: there is not
[11:57] <slavik> swejax: iso-8859-1 is Latin1 = english
[11:57] <swejax> slavik: and I bet /etc/locale.gen has something to do with it
[11:57] <Jowi> swejax, I confirm that. aterm/eterm does not work with utf-8.
[11:57] <swejax> ok
[11:57] <Fredneck> i used sudo cp -a to copy my hard drive's contents to an external drive - it seems to still be going, but I suspect it's not doing anything anymore. Is there anyway to tell?
[11:57] <lllllll> So apt-get update is the way updating is done on ubuntu?
[11:57] <swejax> slavik: do you guys know how I enable ISO-Xxxx ???
[11:57] <Ind[y] > erUSUL: can you give me yours, please? is it default?
[11:57] <mezziah_> lllllll: as noted on their website it seems that 0.10 is the latest version and here on feisty i have 0.10 installed, so it should be the newest version
[11:57] <slavik> swejax: therefore, you can't get other locales onto it
[11:58] <Ind[y] > erUSUL: please, I need it
[11:58] <slavik> swejax: why would you need Latin1? UTF-8 is the superset of Latin1
[11:58] <swejax> slavik: shouldnt it work if I had ISOXXX?
[11:58] <Ind[y] > erUSUL: would you mind to paste it somewhere?
[11:58] <swejax> slavik: I had it working on gentoo
[11:58] <lllllll> Really? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=478042&highlight=rhythmbox
[11:58] <slavik> swejax: what should work? displaying of other languages?
[11:58] <slavik> swejax: what are you trying to accomplish?
[11:58] <mezziah_> let me read.
[11:58] <ibanex> Ind[y] : does this work for you http://pastebin.com/935528
[11:58] <Ind[y] > Please, anybody if he has a default ~/.bashrc can he paste it somewhere?
[11:59] <Ind[y] > ibanex: is it default?
[11:59] <swejax> slavik: what I want is swedish characters in my Eterm
[11:59] <ibanex> Ind[y] : yes
[11:59] <mezziah_> oh, svn, i see.
[11:59] <Ind[y] > ibanex: ok, thanks :-)
[11:59] <ibanex> Ind[y] : on feisty
[11:59] <slavik> swejax: UTF-8 has sweedish characters ...
[11:59] <swejax> slavik: And I think what I need is to chaange default locale for my system?
[11:59] <Ind[y] > yes
[11:59] <erUSUL> Ind[y] : i have told you that there is a default .bashrc in your /etc/skel/ directory just copy it over
[11:59] <ibanex> Ind[y] : no problem
[11:59] <Ind[y] > erUSUL: there is not
[11:59] <swejax> slavik: but Eterm doesnt support utf?
[11:59] <ibanex> erUSUL: there isnt
[11:59] <slavik> swejax: you can change the locale of your session and keep that session as default
[11:59] <jetscreamer> god is there somebody who knows about how ubuntu does locales?
[11:59] <mezziah_> well, did you already try to execute the commands?
[12:00] <lllllll> Whoops, you're completely right
[12:00] <demian> Can anyone help me with my cdrom. It doesn't work in feisty, it does in windows.
[12:00] <swejax> slavik: how would I do that?
[12:00] <lllllll> Sorry all
[12:00] <slavik> swejax: in gdm login screen, there is an option for language. :)
[12:00] <jetscreamer> see if sudo adduser user cdrom does anything
[12:00] <lllllll> Still getting used to linux
[12:00] <mezziah_> 0.10 is the latest stable version. you can install the svn though, although it's not recommended due stability reasons.
[12:00] <slavik> jsut make sure you have proper locale packages installed :)
[12:00] <swejax> slavik: really? wow,,, didnt notice that
[12:00] <swejax> slavik: kind of new on ubuntu
[12:00] <ibanex> demian: what doesn't it do?
[12:00] <dezine> Hm, I can't move files into my apache folder, how can I change the permissions?
[12:01] <erUSUL> Ind[y] : less /etc/skel/.bashrc  (note that i have used tab completion to type this)
