[12:01] <benmayim> or to put it another way. how do I login as root?
[12:01] <intelikey> sldkfj yes that should be sufficient.  thank you.
[12:01] <magnetron> benmayim: don't login as root... use sudo
[12:01] <magnetron> !sudo | benmayim
[12:01] <ubotu> benmayim: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:02] <benmayim> I don't know how to use sudo, I don't know command line commands.

[12:02] <DrLaunch> How come there aren't any Pidgin packages for Ubuntu 7.04?

[12:02] <tarzeau> LDZ420: there is. you don't need to but you can
[12:03] <tarzeau> LDZ420: check debconf-get-selections
[12:03] <Skycloud> Can anybody help me out, I'm having trouble installing ubuntu, everytime after it's done installing, and I reboot, I get 'Operating System Not Found' what should I do?
[12:03] <tarzeau> LDZ420: there might also be leftover files depending if you purged stuff. or if users have generated files in their homes. or shared highscore files
[12:03] <Centinex> When I attempt to boot into the Ubuntu installation, the computer stops responding after configuring network interfaces...[ok] . What could be causing this problem?
[12:03] <imbecile> benmayim, try sudo and the name of the file you want to open
[12:05] <Centinex> Or, since no one has any ideas, is there a way to go into a debugging mode to diagnose the problem further?
[12:06] <Skycloud>  Can anybody help me out, I'm having trouble installing ubuntu, everytime after it's done installing, and I reboot, I get 'Operating System Not Found' what should I do?

[12:07] <Skycloud> urso_, What do you mean, I just used the Live CD to install, isn't it supposed to do everything for you?
[12:07] <magnetron> !sudo | ryoohki
[12:07] <ubotu> ryoohki: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:08] <ryoohki> when i use cups( localhost:631) it asks for a root password
[12:08] <clem> ryoohki: sudo passwd root --> to give root a password
[12:08] <xenex> How do you install mouse cursors system wide?
[12:08] <LDZ420> tarzeau: thx for the help, and I was just wandering because I come from a windows world
[12:08] <ryoohki> please tell me things i don't know
[12:08] <urso_> Skycloud shure butyou nede to chose the right configurations i think ... to be honestly i dont see many things that can miss there ifnot the grub ou making the partions and seect the partition that will bot
[12:08] <ryoohki> i know all about sudo
[12:09] <ryoohki> is there a command line wizard to add a printer to ubuntu?
[12:09] <magnetron> ryoohki: you use your OWN pass with sudo. don't enable root
[12:09] <eyemean> urso: is there any other messenger pls?
[12:09] <heroin> anyone know of a nice application to simple slideshow my pictures?
[12:09] <clem> is it possible to use kernel 2.6.17 in Feisty. Do I need edgy repos to install it?
[12:09] <heroin> heroin: just on the screen..
[12:09] <ryoohki> i am not asking a sudo question
[12:09] <Skycloud> urso_, I just had it use all of my hdd, and make its own partitions, since I wasn't sure how to setup the partitions.
[12:09] <urso_> Skycloud do you install the swap file?
[12:09] <imbecile> anyone ever have problems burning dvd with k3b? i can burn cd image just not dvd.. anything special i need to install for dvd? help please.. or maybe a dvd burning module that will work
[12:09] <magnetron> clem: don't advise against the security policy in this channel. never advise anyone here to enable root!
[12:10] <Pici> !noroot
[12:10] <ubotu> Regardless of your choice: Please do not advise against user security policy and create a root password, please see !rootsudo
[12:10] <ryoohki> once i sudo( i can sudo) is there a command line wizard to add a printer?
[12:10] <Skycloud> urso_, All I did was follow the instructions on the install program on the desktop of the Live CD.
[12:10] <magnetron> !repeat | ryoohki
[12:10] <ubotu> ryoohki: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[12:10] <clem> magnetron: I'm more in favor of using sudo, but you can't do everything with sudo and sometimes you do need access to a root account. If somebody asks I answer.
[12:10] <ryoohki> i can sudo su - and then links localhost:631 but then it asks for the root password
[12:10] <eyemean> does any1 else have problems with amsn on ubuntu 7.04?

[12:11] <aaroncampbell> is there a way to make diff ignore differences in line endings?  (\r vs \n vs \r\n)
[12:11] <heroin> exit
[12:11] <clem> magnetron: keep an open mind. There's pros and cons on both sides.
[12:11] <ryoohki> so what i getting is the is no ubuntu equivelent to redhat's system-config-printers?
[12:11] <supremesonic> !rootsudo
[12:11] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:11] <urso_> urso_ urgggg o0 0o ermmm ... i dont know is i'm probably the best person to help but ... in every linux instalation you nede to parition the hd you need one swap file and one place to have ... thefiles whereyou will install the ubuntu
[12:12] <Ecnerifed_> I installed iptraf, but its not what im looking for :( i need a prog that will just log the bandwidth usage of my server, anyone know what i can get?
[12:12] <urso_> urso_ the swap file is 1 or 3 times more then the memory you have in your pc
[12:12] <magnetron> clem: don't you get it? don't advise against the ubuntu security policy when you're in this channel?
[12:12] <magnetron> clem: do you understand?
[12:12] <clem> magnetron: crystal clean, I play by the rules.
[12:12] <urso_> urso_ so yo need to partition the swap file and then the ext3 the place where you will put the files
[12:12] <clem> "clear" sorry.
[12:12] <moesyzlak> Just installed Feisty, I have a file.run (game installer) that I am trying to run using "sh file.run" in terminal, but it keeps loading its shell installer, not the GUI one that came up when I ran it on Edgy.. is there a diff cmd or something ??
[12:12] <urso_> Skycloud understand?
[12:13] <ryoohki> i find it hard to believe there is no commandline utility to add printers to cups from a root shell like redhat has
[12:13] <bob> i just downloaded the quake 4 demo, how do i install it?
[12:13] <Skycloud> urso_, Not quite, so I can't just let the install program on the Live CD do everything?
[12:13] <urso_> Skycloud i put my nick beford the message but the messege is to you ...
[12:13] <imbecile> is there any way to just use an iso to make a vm? do i HAVE to burn it?
[12:13] <urso_> Skycloud and install butyou nede to partition the swap file i think linux allways nede one swap file
[12:13] <kitche> ryoohki: well considering redhat is for corporate env.
[12:13] <reed026> I am still getting a Grub Error 18.
[12:14] <mpetersen> Looking for help on passing 'ide=nodma' while installing 7.04
[12:14] <Skycloud> urso_ I'm pretty sure it has a swap file, because it installed ubuntu, but when I reboot it says there is no OS.
[12:14] <ryoohki> yeah ut ppl do need to ssh into machines that disallow x forwarding but do allow sudo
[12:14] <reed026> I make a partition and set it to the /boot and make it an EPIBoot then partion the rest of my HB and include a swap.
[12:14] <urso_> Skycloud the swap file is 1 or 3 times the amount of memory you have there ... and you nede to chose install grub ...
[12:15] <RobNyc> !beryl
[12:15] <ubotu> beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[12:15] <Skycloud> urso_, I do all that at the part about setting up my partitions?
[12:15] <mpetersen> Does anyone know about passing ide=nodma for an install?
[12:15] <urso_> Skycloud i recomend  tthe swap file be 2 times more then the amount of memory you have therebecause 2 times + the memory makes 3 times ...
[12:15] <axisys> what is a good netmeeting like tool? besides gnome meeting
[12:15] <iTurtle> how can I make a floppy bootable?\
[12:16] <Ecnerifed_> anyone??
[12:16] <mpetersen> please msg me to get my attention if anyone does...
[12:16] <iTurtle> Ecnerifed_: what's your question?
[12:16] <Ecnerifed_> I installed iptraf, but its not what im looking for :( i need a prog that will just log the bandwidth usage of my server, anyone know what i can get?
[12:16] <urso_> Skycloud hahaaha
[12:16] <urso_> Skycloud i think im see the problem ...
[12:16] <iTurtle> !bandwith | Ecnerifed_
[12:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bandwith - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:16] <Skycloud> urso_ whats the problem =(?
[12:16] <mpetersen> Cacti, rrdtool ?
[12:16] <mpetersen> Ecnerifed_ : cacti, rrdtool ?
[12:16] <persica> urso_: I recommend not making the swap file bigger than the physical memory if you have more than 512M.  If you make it larger a runaway process will grind your system to a halt when it has to start doing heavy swapping.  With less swap the process will die with an out-of-memory error before it forces other active processes into the swap.
[12:16] <urso_> Skycloud right ... ermmm ... lets me ssee you use the ... all disck right?
[12:17] <Ecnerifed_> does 1 of them maybe have a web based interface? :P
[12:17] <Ecnerifed_> otherwise i can still make do
[12:17] <mpetersen> Ecnerifed_: Cacti does
[12:17] <moesyzlak> http://www.claws-mail.org/downloads.php?section=downloads << can some1 tell me how to download the Ubuntu version i don't understand
[12:17] <Skycloud> urso_ all disk?
[12:17] <Ecnerifed_> xD
[12:17] <Ecnerifed_> ta
[12:17] <urso_> persica ok i like emory extra and the swap file dont e use until the memory is full
[12:17] <mpetersen> Ecnerifed_: You could also use OpenNMS.  Both of these are a little overkill for a single server, but would work well.
[12:18] <iTurtle> how can I make a floppy bootable?
[12:18] <philipp__> p
[12:18] <Ecnerifed_> kk, thanks
[12:18] <mzuverink> What is the lightest weight WM?
[12:18] <mpetersen> iTurtle: That's not so easy, why can't you boot off a CD?
[12:18] <axisys> any suggestion on netmeeting like tool?
[12:18] <iTurtle> mpetersen: I'm trying to install windows 95 :)
[12:18] <mpetersen> iTurtle: you'd probably have to get a disk image.
[12:18] <bruenig> mzuverink, fluxbox, openbox, icewm, evilwm, pick one, they are all approximately the same
[12:18] <mpetersen> iTurle: oh, bootdisk.com
[12:18] <urso_> Skycloud if im not mistake you ... partition the hdd and dont chose the boot ... from the hd
[12:18] <mzuverink> bruenig, ok, thanks
[12:18] <mpetersen> iTurtle: do you have a Windows box to create it from?
[12:19] <Skycloud> urso_ what do you mean?
[12:19] <iTurtle> mpetersen: yes. this one.
[12:19] <magnetron> axisys: use ekiga. it is packaged with ubuntu and it is compible with netmeeting + all the sip clients
[12:19] <iTurtle> mpetersen: so with the boot disk I can boot from the win95 floppy?
[12:19] <pqajjv> Hi all. We have fun problem. We have a situation where something like a  `chown -R / ` happened. So lots of files have the wrong owner. Is there a command or script or process to restore ubuntu to default file ownership without re-installing?
[12:19] <vlitzer> how i can restart the X system when i am on console mode?
[12:19] <imbecile> can anyone tell me how to burn a iso to a dvd?
[12:19] <axisys> magnetron: let me give it a try
[12:19] <urso_> Skycloud try make the partitions manually ... when you install the ubuntu and when you go to partition ... select boot to the ext3 ... and install grub
[12:19] <mpetersen> iTurtle: You can create a bootdisk that will recognize your cd-rom and stuff to run the installer from.
[12:19] <iTurtle> pqajjv: on the live cd there's a "repair system" option
[12:20] <clem> moesyzlak: you need to add a repository to your /etc/apt/sources.list, then add a key, then update your sources, then claws will be in synaptic.
[12:20] <magnetron> axisys: it's in the Applications > internet category
[12:20] <Skycloud> urso_ alright, i'll be back when its finished installing again ok?
[12:20] <ericrw> imbecile, in gnome, you can right-click it and 'write to cd (or similar)
[12:20] <iTurtle> mpetersen: ok. thank you.
[12:20] <urso_> Skycloud im not see many more thingsthta can be your problem i dont now if there are someone here thta have another idea that can help you
[12:20] <mpetersen> anyone know how to pass 'ide=nodma' to the 7.04 installer?
[12:20] <clem> moesyzlak: do you know how to do that?
[12:20] <imbecile> ericrw,  thanks
[12:20] <mpetersen> or feisty installer
[12:20] <ericrw> imbecile, you can use 'k3b' as well, (kde app, but very nice)
[12:20] <Skycloud> urso_ I don't think i ever installed grub, i'll be back in a little bit
[12:20] <urso_> Skycloud ok :) partition manully the ext3 must be boot ... and install grub
[12:20] <lxgg> hey guys
[12:20] <lxgg> I need some help here
[12:20] <Skycloud> urso_ you install grub, at the part about partitioning right?
[12:20] <ericrw> imbecile, or from the console use cdrecord.  The command line options are pretty simple.
[12:20] <axisys> mpetersen: it says it is a softphone
[12:21] <Skycloud> urso_ I dont have to do apt-get grub or anything?
[12:21] <lxgg> I am searching for a tool that lists files in Ubuntu in a txt file
[12:21] <mwe> imbecile: make sure it gets burned as a file system and not just a file on the dvd, though.
[12:21] <imbecile> ericrw,  ive tried k3b and it failed 6 times
[12:21] <axisys> i am just trying to share my desktop.. not worry much of audio
[12:21] <mpetersen> lxgg: that does what?
[12:21] <bruenig> lxgg, explain
[12:21] <pqajjv> iTurtle: Thanks. Do you know exactly what steps are taken?
[12:21] <lxgg> Okey
[12:21] <urso_> Skycloud i allways chose manualy the partitions that will boot :x and install grub because i use many more then one os and i wantto install mac here to
[12:21] <dragonphyre> I have a laptop, and a desktop running Ubuntu. What I would like to be able to do is make my laptop kind of like a 2nd screen--an extended desktop, and be able to just move my mouse off the side of the screen and see the mouse move over on my laptop. Does anybody know what I'm talking about, and could they point me in the right direction to start?
[12:21] <vlitzer> is there a way to restart the X server when in textmode in other session? Sometimes my xsession turns to a flashing white and my system freezes
[12:21] <supremesonic> ,
[12:21] <Skycloud> urso_ alright, i'll be back in a little bit
[12:22] <supremesonic> lxgg, find /* > listoffiles.txt
[12:22] <technel> Is there a command to regenerate /etc/fstab?
[12:22] <urso_> Skycloud :)
[12:22] <dom> ubuntu pl
[12:22] <moesyzlak> clem: yes.. i have the key, it said OK when i added it in shell, i have added the sources.. how do I "update the sources" i guess is what I am missing :)
[12:22] <lxgg> I am searching for a tool that generates a txt file of my files in a directory or in a specific device; So when I open the txt files I can seach through the list and look for a specific file.
[12:22] <clem> moesyzlak: sudo apt-get update
[12:22] <bruenig> supremesonic, or find /
[12:22] <urso_> dragonphyre 2 monitors whith one single desktop?
[12:23] <lxgg> supremesonic thanks gona have a look
[12:23] <bruenig> lxgg, yeah just find /path/to/directory > textfile
[12:23] <cras1> lxgg you can use ls -l >> file.txt
[12:23] <moesyzlak> clem: of course ;) thx
[12:23] <mpetersen> lxgg you can redirect the output from find to a text file.  You can also redirect the output of ls to a text file.
[12:23] <clem> magnetron: is it ok to advise the use of a 3pp repository ? (just to be on the safe side..).
[12:23] <bruenig> the output of ls is far less helpful
[12:23] <lxgg> how ?
[12:23] <mpetersen> 'find /dir > ~/textfile'
[12:23] <dom> hey what dys ubuntu is poland?? das is huj
[12:23] <cras1>  lxgg you can use ls -l >> file.txt
[12:23] <lxgg> ohhhhhhhhhhhh coool thanks
[12:23] <mwe> ls -l lists all files on the system? didn't know that
[12:23] <clem> moesyzlak: then you can use "sudo aptitude search claws" to see the packages.
[12:23] <lxgg> gona try that
[12:23] <mpetersen> or 'ls -l /dir > ~/file.txt'
[12:23] <moesyzlak> Also I just installed Feisty, I have a quake4.run (game installer) that I am trying to run using "sh file.run" in terminal, but it keeps loading its shell installer, not the GUI one that came up when I ran it on Edgy.. is there a diff cmd or something ??
[12:23] <clem> moesyzlak: and you probably know about sudo apt-get install... :)
[12:23] <mwe> it doesn't list recursively
[12:24] <echeese> Hiya
[12:24] <mpetersen> lxgg: use find if you want all the sub directories
[12:24] <dragonphyre> urso: No. Two seperate computers, with two seperate monitors. Each computer would remain independant, but I would just move the mouse over to the other screen.
[12:24] <magnetron> clem: avoid it, please. and never recommend automatix or easyubuntu
[12:24] <clem> magnetron: I don't like automatix...
[12:24] <echeese> I'm not sure if I should use the 64 bit or 32 bit version of Ubuntu.
[12:24] <echeese> I can run both
[12:24] <mpetersen> dragonphyre: You can use ctrl-alt-backspace to restart X generally.
[12:24] <SlimeyPete> dragonphyre: synergy
[12:24] <msl> dragonphyre: synergy2.sourceforge.net     or    apt-get install quicksynergy
[12:24] <magnetron> echeese: will you use the computer for deskop use or server use?
[12:24] <mpetersen> dragonphyre: Synergy would do that, but I'm not sure it would work right if the X session is crashed.
[12:24] <urso_> dragonphyre using te monitor of your desktop and use xinerama probably work ... of you want to work to pcs working whith one ou need one ... software to the kernel
[12:25] <supremesonic> anyone know how hard it would be to crack a truecrypt volume there have 15digits password. with a supercomputer - and the people knowing that it was 15digits. The partition is using sha1 -twfish-serpent. I'm asking like about 1 year, or 2 year. Or 100years? I don't know.
[12:25] <mwe> at least ls -R if you want a recursive list
[12:25] <clem> magnetron: how do you answer questions about installing things that are not in Ubuntu repos then? Shall we just ignore them?
[12:25] <echeese> magnetron, both, I'm a web developer.
[12:25] <baghyay> paltalk in ubuntu ??
[12:25] <echeese> Mostly desktop
[12:25] <agent47a> I edited my xorg.conf for multi monitor support.  There are 2 layouts and I can choose by setting the Default Layout in Server Flags.  Is there a better way of choosing layouts?  Often I want to disconnect my laptop from the external monitor when it is still in in multi monitor layout.
[12:26] <magnetron> echeese: you will have an easier time with the i386 variant
[12:26] <supremesonic> anyone?
[12:26] <pqajjv> Hi all. We have fun problem. We have a situation where something like a  `chown -R / ` happened. So lots of files have the wrong owner. Is there a command or script or process to restore ubuntu to default file ownership without re-installing?
[12:26] <ant-> lol
[12:26] <pqajjv> I personally don't know what the default permissions should be, or I would write a script.
[12:26] <clem> moesyzlak: sorry .. I don't know much about quake4 at all..
[12:27] <echeese> magnetron, The only other problem is I can't decide between 6.06 or 7.04
[12:27] <bruenig> pqajjv, no of course not
[12:27] <bruenig> pqajjv, reinstall all the debs, that should do it
[12:27] <whileimhere> I have some .ico files for icons. Where do I put them so that GNOME finds them automatically
[12:27] <ericrw> imbecile, make sure that your user is in the group for writing to cds.. (I forgot waht the group is under ubuntu)
[12:27] <pqajjv> And is there a good way to reinstall them all? I tried re-installing one with sudo aptitude reinstall mysql, for instance. I don't know that it did anything.
[12:28] <technel> I used the diskmounter utility to automount a backup drive, but I can't modify it without root. Any ideas?
[12:28] <moesyzlak> clem: not about quake4, but rather the cmd to run a .run file.. is it "sh" or anything else? or other ways to execute this type of file..
[12:28] <imbecile> ericrw, how do i determine that it is?
[12:28] <magnetron> clem: you have to use your responsibility when recommending stuff to users here. avoid things that would possibly damage the users computer setup.
[12:28] <bruenig> technel, use sudo and modify it from cli
[12:28] <clem> moesyzlak: ./file.run
[12:28] <technel> bruenig, Well I did umount it and chown to "michael", but it just goes back after restart...
[12:28] <mwe> moesyzlak: chmod +x it first
[12:29] <pqajjv> bruenig, is there a command to force dpkg to fill all the installed packages?
[12:29] <clem> magnetron: that's fair enough.
[12:30] <moesyzlak> thx
[12:30] <supremesonic> a
[12:30] <lxgg> mpetersen --> with the find it is perfect to list files and output in txt file; However I want seperations for the subdirectories and the file type and file size ....any idea ?
[12:30] <bruenig> technel, mount it the real way with /etc/fstab
[12:30] <supremesonic> ls /*
[12:31] <clem> moesyzlak: after you've installed claws you should comment out the repo or remove it from your /etc/apt/sources.list and update again. Unless you want to get updates on claws of course.. but be aware that if that repo updates packages you already have it can alter your system.
[12:31] <technel> bruenig, I have an entry in fstab and I looked at the ubuntu wiki, but I couldn't find anything about permissions for mounting... (note: diskmounter just adds it to fstab and it's done)
[12:31] <sqwishy> Can you guys help me out? I need you to say stuff you like about ubuntu or linux in general, :D short and sweet like 'portability' or 'Compiz/Beryl' or 'different desktop enviroments'. Try not to repeat something anyone already said.
[12:31] <technel> bruenig, How do I change the mount permissions?
[12:31] <bruenig> technel, what is the filesystem
[12:31] <technel> bruenig, vfat
[12:32] <bruenig> technel, add the following options, fmask=111,dmask=000
[12:32] <echeese> I can't decide between 6.06 and 7.04
[12:32] <lxgg> 7.04
[12:32] <awerner32> ok so i have my wifi with the mad wifi driver and i was trying to path that to use airodump for a little hobby because i was bored in the shop and wanted to see if i could crack the wifi in the store. things were going well and then shutdown when i left and when i booted back ath0 which is my wifi module wasnt on the ifconfig -a list. so i decided reload the module and "#sudo modprobe ath_pci
[12:32] <awerner32> FATAL: Error inserting ath_pci (/lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/net/ath_pci.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)"
[12:32] <bruenig> 6.10
[12:33] <awerner32> so i reinstalled the madwifi drivers unpatched and tried it again; same error
[12:33] <bruenig> in between
[12:33] <moesyzlak> clem: ok i will, yes should be careful always :] 
[12:33] <mpetersen> Anyone know about passing ide=nodma to 7.04 installer?
[12:33] <jareth_> guys, i need help. after installing feisty, there is no entry for xp on one of me four sata disks...
[12:33] <technel> bruenig, Ok, restarting, one second...
[12:34] <pqajjv> so, any way to force ubuntu to reinstall all packages?
[12:34] <bronze> How can I check if I'm running XGL? Is there a way to check it?
[12:34] <clem> sorry to ask again (it's been a while so I'll try again). Anybody has kernel 2.6.17 running in Feisty? Does it work well? If so shall I pull it out of Edgy's repositories?
[12:34] <john86> can I run ubuntu with ASUS A8V Deluxe motherboard with geforce6800GT ?
[12:34] <Azul> xgl?
[12:34] <bronze> ye?
[12:35] <Azul> maybe if your windows act funny
[12:35] <eve> hola
[12:35] <eve> alguien habla espaol
[12:35] <jareth_> xp is installed on sda1
[12:35] <jareth_> how do i create grub entry for that
[12:35] <jareth_> ?
[12:35] <moesyzlak> bronze: everything is really slow? ;)

[12:36] <ADINSX> hi folks, does anyone use sshfs on ubuntu?  I installed it with apt-get and tried adding my username to the fuse group with "sudo usermod -a -G fuse" but it still won't let me mount filesystems as non-root... I can do it with root, however
[12:36] <clem> jareth_: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst .. there's a windows example commented out in there.
[12:36] <javb> i`m having an issue with ethernet on ubuntu 7.10. It is taking something like "eth0=avh0" ... any ideas?
[12:36] <bronze> moesyzlak, no, I don't think so. I'm using Beryl and the system is responsive.
[12:36] <vbabiy> Hello
[12:36] <jareth_> clem.. wait...
[12:36] <vbabiy> Every one
[12:36] <kitche> ADINSX: yes that is correct so what's the problem your having?
[12:36] <newtubuntu> any thoughts on AMD64 vs. 32bits ?
[12:36] <moesyzlak> bronze: ATI or nVidia card ?
[12:37] <vbabiy> newtubuntu: what do you mean
[12:37] <vbabiy> software or hardware
[12:37] <jareth_> clem: what will my root for xp be? /dev/sda1
[12:37] <newtubuntu> vbabiy, which to choose
[12:37] <clem> jareth_: should be /dev/sda1
[12:37] <bronze> moesyzlak, nvidia geforce 7900GTX
[12:37] <technel> bruenig, Thanks
[12:38] <jareth_> oki... i change that, reboot and get back ok?
[12:38] <vbabiy> newtubuntu: in hardware or software
[12:38] <urso_> hello
[12:38] <bruenig> !thanks | technel
[12:38] <ubotu> technel: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[12:38] <moesyzlak> bronze: Which Beryl version? "beryl --version" in shell
[12:38] <newtubuntu> I have an AMD64 proc, should I use AMD64 Ubuntu ?
[12:38] <clem> jareth_: hold on..
[12:38] <clem> jareth_: sorry ... root should be (hd0,0)
[12:38] <vbabiy> newtubuntu: I have 64bit but I use 32bit more software support
[12:39] <vbabiy> There are hacks around it
[12:39] <bronze> beryl-core 0.2.1
[12:39] <vbabiy> but 32bit is much easier
[12:39] <jareth_> sure?
[12:39] <bronze> moesyzlak, beryl-core 0.2.1
[12:39] <jareth_> clem: sure?
[12:39] <clem> jareth_: /dev/sda1 might also work... it's basically the same, hd0,0 is grub syntax.. /dev/sda1 is the way linux sees it.
[12:39] <newtubuntu> vbabiy, I heard I could have problems with AMD64 Ubuntu, and that I don't lose performance on 32 bits. Is that so ?
[12:39] <moesyzlak> bronze: You are not using XGL, nVidia uses AiGLX
[12:40] <jareth_> clem: thanks, i get back on you... !
[12:40] <clem> jareth_: ok
[12:40] <sn0wmis3r> anyone know of a 64bit config tool for compiz, reg compiz not compizfusion
[12:40] <ADINSX> well kitche i can't mount a remote filesystem as a user
[12:40] <vbabiy> newtubuntu: There might be a small increase in speed on 64bit but I don't think enough to justify install 64bit
[12:40] <bronze> moesyzlak, which one is "the best"? There's probably not an answer but still
[12:40] <ADINSX> and i should be able to according to the guides i find, i have added my username to the fuse group, is there any other group i need to belong to?
[12:40] <supremesonic> vbabiy, can't you install ubuntu 64bit, and hack the /etc/apt/source.list to use 32bit for something?
[12:41] <newtubuntu> software availability is a big issue on 64bits ?
[12:41] <yeniklasor> Can you tell me fastest torrent program what?
[12:41] <StrongArm> whats the alternative GPL version of realplayer
[12:41] <vbabiy> supremesonic: that's not what i meant
[12:41] <kitche> StrongArm: helxi
[12:41] <kitche> StrongArm: helix*
[12:41] <vbabiy> newtubuntu: yes
[12:41] <moesyzlak> bronze: That's not the idea, but as someone who used XGL with an ATI card then got a nVidia card and hence now using AiGLX, trust me, nVidia is the way to go :)
[12:41] <supremesonic> vbabiy, okay. But can't you do that?
[12:41] <vbabiy> supremesonic:  not sure
[12:41] <newtubuntu> supremesonic:  I think you are talking about using 32bits apps in chroot or something like that
[12:41] <hans0lo> I've got a client with a 24-drive ubuntu server. He's a windows user and si scared of the CLI. Is there any way to rename partition labels through the GUI?
[12:41] <supremesonic> vbabiy, I wanna know becuase I might wanna buy 64amd next time.
[12:42] <StrongArm> helxi ?
[12:42] <bronze> moesyzlak, Ok then :)
[12:42] <john86> can I run ubuntu with ASUS A8V Deluxe motherboard with geforce6800GT ?
[12:42] <StrongArm> no such pkg as helxi
[12:42] <Skycloud> urso_ are you there?
[12:42] <gerro> once again I embark on my journey to get xubuntu on a dell latitude c640, but this time... I got floppies!! :)
[12:42] <StrongArm> kitche:  no such pkg as helxi
[12:42] <supremesonic> newtubuntu, I wanna use some 32bit programs and some 64bit. Like if java is 64 bit it should be so much better I heard.
[12:42] <Skycloud> Can anybody help me setup my partitions?
[12:42] <preaction> hans0lo: uhm... if he's afraid of the CLI, I would hope you allow him absolutely no access to a 24-drive ubuntu server... the possibilities are very bad for you
[12:43] <hans0lo> preaction: thanks but that doesn't answer my question.
[12:43] <preaction> hans0lo: but it might be possible through gparted
[12:43] <urso_> Skycloud yes i'm :)
[12:43] <newtubuntu> supremesonic:  I am on 64bits today, and the Java plugin doesn't work
[12:43] <hans0lo> preaction: all right, I'll try that out, thanks :)
[12:43] <Skycloud> urso_ I don't know how to setup my partitions, and It doesn't say anything about grub.
[12:43] <preaction> hans0lo: are they raided though? i mean, there's an entirely different tool for that if they are
[12:43] <StrongArm> whats the GPL version of realplayer
[12:43] <hans0lo> preaction: nope, JBOD
[12:44] <gerro> newtubuntu: grab the java plugin from getjava site and set it up manually or use x86 system on that computer
[12:44] <bruenig> StrongArm, mplayer?
[12:44] <newtubuntu> the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) is available, but not Sun-Java6-Plugin (in order to work in Firefox) it just doesn't work on AMD64
[12:44] <preaction> hans0lo: concatenated? or individual disks individually managed?
[12:44] <Jordan_U> newtubuntu, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[12:44] <urso_> Skycloud are you in the partitions setup?
[12:44] <urso_> allready
[12:44] <hans0lo> preaction: individual disks. all 750GB SATA's
[12:44] <Skycloud> urso_ yes
[12:44] <supremesonic> newtubuntu, if you don't have 64bit os. You can't use 64 bit programs.
[12:44] <gerro> newtubuntu: I think you have to make a symbolic link to your browser plugin section or such
[12:44] <StrongArm> mplayer does play
[12:44] <StrongArm> mplayer does play  it
[12:45] <sn0wmis3r> anyone know of any 64bit compiz settings tools
[12:45] <preaction> hans0lo: gparted would probably be your best bet then, otherwise the Disks Manager might allow you to edit disk / volume labels
[12:45] <Pirate_Hunter> StrongArm: why dont you stick with Rythmbox its easy and does the same with a crappy interface... I wonder if it has themes but heck does the job and guess what music comes outt he same
[12:45] <urso_> Skycloud you got there one option that says to manuually partitions right?
[12:45] <supremesonic> newtubuntu, I'm also thinking more like my IDE environment for creating java application can sometimes be a little slwo
[12:45] <abduliounited> Hello to All!!!
[12:45] <Skycloud> urso_ yes
[12:45] <Jordan_U> preaction, hans0lo I don't think that gparted allows editing of disk labels
[12:45] <mdolan__> does anyone know if xvidcap is in any of the ubuntu repos? can't find it...
[12:46] <urso_> Skycloud so select this ... and then create one swap file 1 or 2 times the amount of the memory thta your personal computer have
[12:46] <hans0lo> Jordan_U: You may be right, I'm not seing any options for it :/
[12:46] <abduliounited> I have a problem with my microphone. the audio is working perfect but my microphone not at all. how I can set-up my alsamixer??
[12:46] <Pirate_Hunter> Jordan_U: Im sure for you to edit the disk label it must be formated otherwise it is just stuck unless im wrong
[12:46] <Skycloud> urso_ memory as in ram?
[12:46] <bronze> When I play x-moto (game), the game periodically de-selects itself and enters windowed mode. How can I prevent this?
[12:46] <jareth_> clem: didn't work... :(
[12:47] <mpetersen> Ok, I installed 6.06 and I'm dist-upgrading to 7.04.  I guess that might work as a work around for me.  Hopefully I can boot 7.04 with nodma.
[12:47] <urso_> Skycloud yes ram memory ... and after you create one swap file create one ext3 file that will be your linux files ... or your hd
[12:47] <cheeseboy> whats app to setup nvidia tv clone ?
[12:47] <abduliounited> I dont know how to enable my microphone when I run alsamixer...any idea
[12:47] <clem> jareth_: what did it say?
[12:47] <hans0lo> preaction: looks like you can only set the MSDOS disk label with gparted
[12:47] <Jordan_U> Pirate_Hunter, You can change a disk label without reformatting, I know that gparted has some option they call changing the disk label which does not do what I generally know that term to mean
[12:48] <jareth_> clem: not valid .. bla bla
[12:48] <fuzzy_logic> hi people
[12:48] <gdb> mpetersen: I hope your upgrade from 6.06 -> 7.04 without going to 6.10 first works for you, as well. ;-)
[12:48] <Skycloud> urso_ I won't be dual booting though
[12:48] <Pirate_Hunter> Jordan_U: thats new always thought disk label couldnt be changed but than I only had to do it when I formatted my HD
[12:48] <hans0lo> Jordan_U: Someone's got to have made a GUI for this, even if it's only a frontend to the CLI tools
[12:48] <mpetersen> gdb: Me too..  shouldn't be that much different.
[12:48] <fuzzy_logic> gdb: i don't think that will :)
[12:48] <cheeseboy> ??
[12:48] <mpetersen> gdb: you really think it'll fail?
[12:48] <jareth_> clem: i got 4 sata disks
[12:48] <urso_> Skycloud do this and and keep install
[12:48] <IdleOne> mpetersen, you shouldnt leepfrog versions like that and there is alot of difference
[12:48] <kitche> StrongArm: I said helix
[12:48] <clem> Pirate_Hunter: why do you want to change the label? Just for the link on the desktop?
[12:48] <jareth_> xp is on /dev/sda1
[12:49] <mpetersen> Ok, now everyone jumps out of the woodwork.
[12:49] <hans0lo> clem: Yes, that's why
[12:49] <fuzzy_logic> gdb: if you do apt-get distupgrade it will upgrade to 6.10
[12:49] <gdb> mpetersen: I honestly don't know the odds.  It's not recommended to do it.  Since I keep my volatile data on another partition, I always do a clean install.
[12:49] <kitche> StrongArm: I fixed it after I misspelled it you didn't see my correction
[12:49] <Pirate_Hunter> clem: not me someone wanted I said it wasnt possible wihtout reformat
[12:49] <Skycloud> urso_ only 2 partitions then?
[12:49] <urso_> Skycloud and chose install grub in the mrb when cames thegrub instalation
[12:49] <mpetersen> So 6.10 to 7.04 is the much more likely to work?
[12:49] <clem> jareth_: try with root /dev/sda1 so
[12:49] <bronze> When I play x-moto (game), the game periodically de-selects itself and enters windowed mode. How can I prevent this?
[12:49] <urso_> Skycloud yes you nede the swap file and the ext3
[12:49] <IdleOne> mpetersen, yes
[12:49] <gdb> Takes me about 30 minutes to get everything taken care of.
[12:49] <Skycloud> urso_ i've never seen a grub installtion
[12:49] <mpetersen> I would LOVE to do a clean install if I could pass ide=nodma to the 7.04 installer
[12:49] <jareth_> clem: ok
[12:49] <gdb> mpetersen: Perhaps using the alternative CD?
[12:49] <cheeseboy> what app you use to setup nvidia tv clone ?
[12:49] <mpetersen> I am using the alt CD trying to do a CLI install
[12:50] <gdb> ah ok
[12:50] <gdb> So you're doing that already.
[12:50] <jrib> cheeseboy: nvidia-settings
[12:50] <mpetersen> also, my upgrade is a cli, so that might make things a little better on the upgrade?
[12:50] <Jordan_U> Pirate_Hunter, You can do it with e2label without reformatting
[12:50] <clem> Pirate_Hunter: you can use mintDisk to replace fstab just for fat/ntfs partitions. It's got more features than fstab and one of them is that you can give aliases to your partitions and define where the shortcuts go.
[12:50] <Pirate_Hunter> mpetersen: have you actually backed up your data cause I think you may need to reading the way things are going
[12:50] <jrib> cheeseboy: at least I think you can use it...
[12:50] <mpetersen> I have no data that I care about.
[12:50] <mpetersen> just some OpenVPN certs with backups.
[12:50] <gdb> mpetersen: I don't think that will have an impact.  I don't anticipate that you'll have *major* issues, but you might run into a snag here and there.
[12:50] <urso_> Skycloud do you have there some option to chose the boot in the partitions ?
[12:50] <Skycloud> urso_ I
[12:51] <Skycloud> urso_ I'm not sure
[12:51] <urso_> Skycloud to chose if will run from swap or ext3 ?
[12:51] <jareth_> clem: and chainloader option?
[12:51] <clem> jareth_: yep
[12:51] <Pirate_Hunter> Jordan_U & clem: thanks thats new to me will try it out sometime i..e when I buy my new HD
[12:51] <urso_> Skycloud check this i dont have the rightplace in my memory ... but you nede to have something looks like there
[12:51] <clem> Pirate_Hunter: no problem.
[12:51] <urso_> Skycloud after you find this in thepartitions makes the ext3 boot
[12:52] <gdb> I've so far upgraded the OS on my desktop to Windows Vista, on my server to Ubuntu Feisty, and on my phone to the new Treo 700p ROM release in the last couple days.  Yikes!
[12:52] <jareth_> clem: +1 or sthg else?
[12:52] <mpetersen> gdb: I can probably fix a snag here and there... it's literally a base system with OpenVPN.
[12:52] <mpetersen> oh, and ssh
[12:52] <gdb> mpetersen: I think you'll probably be fine for the most part.
[12:52] <Skycloud> urso_ I don't understand
[12:52] <mpetersen> mtr-tiny that sort of stuff.
[12:53] <cheeseboy> jrib, nothing about tv
[12:53] <urso_> Skycloud you have there one option when you set up thepartitions ... manually thta lets you to chose what partitions you ant this hd start to run so when you find this just chose to run first from the ext3
[12:53] <Skycloud> urso_ alright

[01:07] <Fhajad> I need someone to help me figure to tell No-IP 2.1.4 to give its external IP instead of the internal IP the router gives it (192.168.1.106)
[01:07] <aggelos> pelo yes it is

[01:08] <awerner32> ok so i have my wifi with the mad wifi driver and i was trying to path that to use airodump for a little hobby because i was bored in the shop and wanted to see if i could crack the wifi in the store. things were going well and then shutdown when i left and when i booted back ath0 which is my wifi module wasnt on the ifconfig -a list. so i decided reload the module and "#sudo modprobe ath_pci
[01:08] <Pelo> aggelos,  plug it in , open it up in nautlus,  ctrl_h to view hidden fiels,   looin in .Trash
[01:08] <awerner32> FATAL: Error inserting ath_pci (/lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/net/ath_pci.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)"
[01:08] <awerner32> so i reinstalled the madwifi drivers unpatched and tried it again; same error
[01:08] <unique1> is it worth it to upgrade to ubuntu studio from fiesty?
[01:09] <Pelo> aggelos,  I donT' take private msg  talk to me in the channel
[01:09] <javb> i`m having an issue with ethernet on ubuntu 7.10. It is taking something like "eth0=avh0" ... any ideas?
[01:09] <jscinoz> The UUID of my swap partition keeps changing, meaning i have to edit /etc/fstab every few boots, why does this happen and how can i fix it?
[01:09] <wiglaf> awerner32: ouch! I can't help you, but maybe you can help me get wifi running... :)
[01:09] <Swamiji> hi :)
[01:09] <clem> jscinoz: you can use the /dev/xxx instead.
[01:10] <jscinoz> ok thanks, just  wondering though, why does the UUID change?
[01:10] <leal> i'm using "xwinwrap -a -fs -- mplayer -wid WID -quiet -loop 0 movie.mpg" as screensaver... but i need to move the mouse to see the video... how can i fix that??
[01:10] <jettred2001> can I make my own room
[01:10] <Swamiji> today, i have been plying around with themes... and i came to know about docking... i installed avant.. but its not what i had in my mind.. and its not what i had seen in youtube..
[01:11] <Pelo> jettred2001,  sure , just joing a blank one
[01:11] <jettred2001> ok how
[01:11] <Fhajad> I need help with someone experinced with no-ip.
[01:11] <Swamiji> what i wanted was something similar to what we have in mac
[01:11] <jettred2001> I am new to this chat
[01:11] <wiglaf> How can I get Ubuntu to detect my cardbus wifi adaptor?
[01:11] <Pelo> jettred2001,  just type  /join #jettred
[01:11] <clem> jscinoz: I think the UUID is more precise in a way.. it identifies a particular partition, but it's less stable as well cause it changes if you make changes to the partition table. The need of UUID comes from the fact that some bios don't always sort partitions in the same order depending on whether external drives are plugged or not... hence sda1 could be something today and something else tomorrow..
[01:11] <rustalot> How do I reinstall (and have it autoconfigure) X and kdm?
[01:11] <Fhajad> I need help with someone experinced with no-ip.
[01:11] <clem> jscinoz: I "think" this is it.
[01:12] <Pelo> Swamiji, try kxdockers
[01:12] <Swamiji> then, googling... googling.. and i came out with something named gnome-dock
[01:12] <Swamiji> Pelo: kxdockers?
[01:12] <leal> somebody using xwinwrap???
[01:12] <jscinoz> hmm strange, i havn't changed anything to do with the partition table...
[01:12] <TheDebugger> kxdocker is good if you have KDE
[01:12] <Swamiji> Pelo: kxdockers have that mac look?
[01:12] <clem> jscinoz: sometimes just installing a distro on another partition breaks the UUIDs..
[01:12] <Pelo> Swamiji, no idea
[01:12] <xoqa> where's the .local file located?
[01:13] <xoqa> oops
[01:13] <TheDebugger> For gnome, the one thats work the best is avant-window-manager imo
[01:13] <jscinoz> I haven't it just changes after a regular reboot
[01:13] <Swamiji> :(
[01:13] <Swamiji> TheDebugger: i am hving ubuntu, its not having kde :(
[01:13] <abduliounited> do you know why when I try to log in to skype I got this error?? sign in failed: database failure
[01:13] <jettred2001> ok now do I have to do anything to keep the room
[01:14] <Fhajad> I need help with someone experinced with no-ip.
[01:14] <TheDebugger> Swamiji: Then try avant-window-manager :)
[01:14] <benmayim> I've unpacked Joomla into the apache2 www folder, but when I open a browser, and file-open file, and pick install.php, it asks what program to open it with. How do I get a php file to run in the web browser?

[01:18] <sharcle> I'm running Feisty and want to run qcharts under Wine - this should work just by installing the wine from synaptic, right? Or is there any reason why I'd need to install from source?
[01:18] <Fhajad> Fuck this, back to Google.

[01:19] <wiglaf> benmayim: you may need the php5 package
[01:19] <technel> I am trying to move a directory between two HD's. It says: inter-device move failed: .... unable to remove target: Is a directory --- Why?
[01:19] <eapache> sharcle: the wine in synaptic is out of date, but you don't need to install from source
[01:19] <benmayim> I have the package, I just don't know where it is or how to connect it to the browserl
[01:19] <sharcle> eapache thanks

[01:19] <lazellama> how can I make it so I call see all my files by default. so i don't have to use ls -a....why are .filename files automatically hidden?
[01:20] <urso_> Skycloud you only have one hd in in the pc you try to install the ubuntu?
[01:20] <eapache> sharcle: follow the instructions here for the latest version http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[01:20] <kitche> lazellama: . means hidden also means current directory
[01:20] <jettred2001> is 3.3 gb enough to run roller coster tycoon on ubuntu
[01:20] <Pirate_Hunter> lazellama: why would windows have hidden files, i wont answer that for you
[01:20] <Pirate_Hunter> brb
[01:20] <qnyc> lazellama, you can alias ls="ls -a"
[01:21] <urso_> Skycloud do you have one ormore then one hd in the pc you try to install the ubuntu?
[01:21] <unagi_> does anyone here have a problem with the system restarting when trying to 'search for files'?
[01:21] <sharcle> eapache, it says it can't authenticate it. Is there a reason for that?
[01:21] <qnyc> lazellama, put that in your ~/.bash_profile
[01:21] <bruenig> unagi_, how are you searching for them with find, locate which or what
[01:21] <eapache> sharcle: after which command?
[01:21] <qnyc> lazellama, or better yet make another command like lsa, so you still have ls
[01:21] <Skycloud> urso_ i only have 1
[01:22] <bruenig> whereis maybe
[01:22] <benmayim> wiglaf, I have the php5 package, I just don't know how to tie it to the browser, or where the php5 is located.

[01:40] <Xraven92> awsome thanks
[01:40] <urso_> you are wellcome :)
[01:40] <Xraven92> and the ubuntu installer includes grub so i can dual boot right?
[01:40] <magnetron> Xraven92: the Ubuntu installer has the option to resize your current partitions to give you the possibility to add new ones for ubuntu
[01:40] <kmasta> are there any other open source ATI drivers other than radeon

[01:41] <Pirate_Hunter> who can help me Ive just read the manual and still achieved nothing - i need to get owner privilege to /usr/share/xmame/roms
[01:41] <abduliounited> Hey There ..thank you very much...finally I fixed my microphone...urrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaaaaaaaaa good nite
[01:41] <taint> hah, just realized I was still on this nick. hehe
[01:41] <ub12> taint your first user you set up password is the superuser password
[01:41] <urso_> taint try one live cd to make the backups :)
[01:42] <qnyc> xcd, no it won't show as mounted
[01:42] <magnetron> ub12: just use the standard ubuntu installer, it will ask if ubuntu should resize the current windows partition.
[01:42] <vbabiy> Hey guys where can i get some good direction to create packages
[01:42] <xcd> qnyc: ok thanks.
[01:42] <taint> ub12: yeah I tried that one. it's not working
[01:42] <aoeuhtns> xcd: you can use the command free to see how much swap is available
[01:42] <xcd> also, anyone know how to turn off the automount ubuntu seems to do whenever you try to access a disk

[01:42] <kmasta> elliot_M what kind of graphics card do you have
[01:42] <qnyc> !sudo | taint
[01:42] <ubotu> taint: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[01:42] <jrib> vbabiy: #ubuntu-motu is full of helpful packagers as well
[01:42] <magnetron> mongolai: yes
[01:43] <CaptainMorgan> where do I set environment variables? I thought it was in .bashrc... no?
[01:43] <taint> qnyc: still doesn't help me login as root.
[01:43] <Pirate_Hunter> achieved nothing - i need to get owner privilege to ~/usr/share/xmame/roms
[01:43] <mongolai> shoot, wish i'd known that before partition magic ruined my old tables ;P
[01:43] <jrib> CaptainMorgan: sure, you could use that
[01:43] <Pirate_Hunter>  who can help me Ive just read the manual and still achieved nothing - i need to get owner privilege to ~/usr/share/xmame/roms
[01:43] <lashmoove> why is compiz-fusion not dodging when i tell it to? is it because the settings from the beryl-manager is overriding it?
[01:43] <Xraven92> does the ubuntu installerlet you partion your harddrive with out loosing the data already on it?
[01:43] <jrib> lashmoove: try #ubuntu-effects
[01:43] <mongolai> CaptainMorgan, you can also use "set env"
[01:44] <ub12> ansimation, you might have to set up su I just searching for it now on google.com/linux

[01:45] <eapache> Pirate_Hunter: try "sudo chmod +666 /usr/share/xmame/roms"
[01:45] <ansimation> in 5.*installation it asked me for a root password. now I just installed 6.06 because I don't have the feisty fawn cd's yet and and it didn't even ask me to set one
[01:45] <CTho> what's an app that's similar to ms paint?
[01:45] <eelmoo> dunno
[01:45] <largos> has anyone had trouble with tomcat5.5 starting up in feisty?
[01:45] <ub12> ansimation, try "sudo passwd root" and set the root password
[01:45] <Xraven92> does the ubuntu installerlet you partion your harddrive with out loosing the data already on it?
[01:45] <ansimation> CTho: the gimp?
[01:45] <ansimation> sec let me run tot hat room and try it
[01:45] <eapache> CTho: gpaint is similar. it's in add/remove
[01:45] <CTho> ansimation: are you intentionally trolling?
[01:45] <jrib> ansimation: what are you installing exactly?
[01:45] <CTho> eapache: thanks ,i'll give it a shot
[01:45] <Pirate_Hunter> eapache: so that should give me owner permission to the roms folder even knowing its a sub directory?
[01:45] <largos> Xraven92: yeah, but you have to explicity run gparted from the live cd before doing the install, iirc.
[01:46] <blackace11> hello, can i get assistance with installing an xbox 360 remote to my ubuntu laptop?
[01:46] <qnyc> Pirate_Hunter, if you want to change owner, use chown
[01:46] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: don't chown system files
[01:46] <mongolai> Xraven92, still backup first. I have learned to *never* trust soft partitioners
[01:46] <qnyc> Pirate_Hunter, probably be better to install those under your ~/
[01:46] <qnyc> Pirate_Hunter, and change the xmame config accordingly
[01:46] <chalcedony> what's a command to tell me how much ram and what kind it is in my computer?
[01:47] <eapache> Pirate_Hunter: it should give everyone full access. just run it in terminal. like qnyc said though, you shouldn't give yourself access to sys files
[01:47] <ansimation> I wasn't aware that I was trolling, CTho
[01:47] <largos> chalcedony: free will tell you how much
[01:47] <CTho> ansimation: ok.  well, for future reference, when somebody asks for a simple grpahics app, gimp is ALWAYS the wrong answer
[01:47] <mongolai> chalcedony, you might have to take a look in the BIOS to tell you what kind
[01:47] <chalcedony> largos: ty :)
[01:47] <Xraven92> thanks mon
[01:47] <ub12> chalcedony, lspci will tell you some info
[01:47] <ansimation> ub12: that worked. thanks man, appreciate it.
[01:47] <CTho> is there a way to get a screenshot onto the clipboard directly?
[01:47] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib/qnyc: i just want to gain permission to roms cause i want to save my roms, whats the point of having xmame emulator if you cnat save the roms (games) for it? im not much of a gamer but mame is old school
[01:47] <ub12> ansimation, no problem
[01:48] <CTho> n/m, gnu paint can grab it for me
[01:48] <qos> hey guys ... can someone tell me if there is something strange with the following line: "Mem:    515504k total,   511700k used,     3804k free,     8808k buffers" its from the TOP command
[01:48] <qnyc> Pirate_Hunter, use something like ~/mame/roms/ instead
[01:48] <blackace11> hello, can i get assistance with installing an xbox 360 remote to my ubuntu laptop?
[01:48] <chalcedony> ty mongolai , ub12
[01:48] <mongolai> np
[01:48] <blackace11> hello, can i get assistance with installing an xbox 360 controller to my ubuntu laptop?
[01:48] <jrib> !repeat > blackace11 (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:48] <jettred2001> can some one help me with the java download
[01:48] <Pirate_Hunter> eapache: its not a sys file so it should be ok I dont see how giving access to the rom folder will make a security risk I juts want the rom folder not the whole directory path lets hope ubuntu understands that
[01:49] <jrib> !java > jettred2001 (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:49] <mongolai> blackace11, is the x360 remote a normal USB device?
[01:49] <Pirate_Hunter> qnyc: will try that
[01:49] <mongolai> ...i don't own one
[01:49] <blackace11> yes
[01:49] <blackace11> i ment controller so i reposted
[01:49] <ub12> chalcedony, np
[01:49] <phil_> nick d7o
[01:49] <mongolai> it doesn't work as is?
[01:50] <qnyc> it's a normal usb controller afaik
[01:50] <speaker219> does anyone know how to stop XChat-Gnome IRC client from automatically connecting to a server at startup? thanks
[01:51] <bthornton> What kind of performance increase can I expect (with regards to transfer bandwidth) by upgrading from 100 Mbit ethernet to gigabit?  I got a feeling that a 10x increase isn't going to happen...
[01:51] <mongolai> speaker219, this doesn't answer your question, but have you tried normal XChat?
[01:51] <T-Connection> Ok how I change the screen size over 1024 x768?
[01:51] <japhy_ryder> Could someone verify, to make sure I'm not missing something simple, that crontab -e and the addition of "49 18 26  6   tue   gedit" to whatever file that opens should have caused gedit to open at 6:49 my time today...
[01:51] <Elliot_M> kmasta: ne ideas ?
[01:51] <kling0n> list speaker219 click "xchat-file-(choose network)-edit-remove check mark
[01:51] <eapache> bthornton: depends on your service provider
[01:51] <jrib> japhy_ryder: you need to set DISPLAY
[01:52] <bthornton> eapache: I'm my service provider.
[01:52] <bthornton> eapache: We're talking about me upgrading my internal NICs to gigabit and then getting a gigabit switch.
[01:52] <japhy_ryder> jrib: can you be more specific? display for what?
[01:52] <blackace11> hold on customer needs assistance... be back soon
[01:52] <eyemean> i still can find my webcam on hardware list, can any1 help? pls
[01:52] <T-Connection> Display
[01:52] <speaker219> mongolai, what do you mean "normal" xchat? also, there are no check marks in the server list.
[01:52] <jrib> japhy_ryder: echo $DISPLAY will tell you what the current value is.  gedit needs to know where to open.  It will look like "DISPLAY=:0 gedit" instead of "gedit" probably
[01:53] <bthornton> eapache: And my main concern is transfer speed of large files (i.e. multi-gigabyte).
[01:53] <eapache> bthornton: I'm not an expert on networks, but I believe that it would then depend on who you connect to and the speed of their servers
[01:53] <Centinex> Is there any way I can find out why Ubuntu 7.04 is hanging during "Loading hardware drivers..." ?
[01:53] <Pirate_Hunter> sudo chmod +666 ~/mame/roms/ doesnt work error message - chmod: invalid mode: `+666'
[01:53] <mongolai> speaker219, there's XChat-Gnome, and plain old "XChat"
[01:53] <mpetersen> argh..  so I'm having endless trouble with getting nodma to work on 7.04, can anyone help?
[01:53] <eapache> bthornton: or do you mean file transfer over lan?
[01:53] <speaker219> mongolai, should i try regular xchat?
[01:53] <c_lisp> Pirate_hunger don't put a + before the numbers
[01:53] <nickrud> Pirate_Hunter, no + on the 666
[01:53] <speaker219> mongolai, does that one have a gui?
[01:54] <mongolai> Give it a shot. I tried XC-Gnome, but line plain XChat better. Yes Good GUI
[01:54] <Pirate_Hunter> nickrud :kk going to try again
[01:54] <mongolai> *like*
[01:54] <qos> hey guys ... can someone tell me if there is something strange with the following line: "Mem:    515504k total,   511700k used,     3804k free,     8808k buffers" its a bit few free memory out there, huh?
[01:54] <speaker219> ok
[01:54] <speaker219> thanks mongolai, i
[01:54] <qnyc> speaker219, xchat-gnome is just a bit... "simplified"
[01:54] <mpetersen> my upgrade failed, the UID mounting isn't working right...
[01:54] <bthornton> eapache: File transfer over LAN.
[01:54] <speaker219> mongolai and qnyc, thanks, i'm not that new to ubuntu, but new to XChat
[01:55] <mongolai> qos, why does that seem strange?
[01:55] <thedonvaughn> qos: free memory is wasted memory.
[01:55] <mpetersen> what's the name of the new system that re-assigns /dev/hdX to /dev/sdX?
[01:55] <T-Connection> Mame doesn't work on Linux?
[01:55] <Siph0n> is there a way to open a new terminal and be a different user? without logging off  and logging back in
[01:55] <T-Connection> Like 0.116
[01:55] <mpetersen> Siph0n: without using sudo?
[01:55] <nickrud> Siph0n, sudo
[01:55] <mongolai> speaker219, no problem. Hope you like regular XChat better
[01:55] <mpetersen> Siph0n: sudo -u username -s
[01:55] <liv> test
[01:55] <ali1234> Centinex: press escape (i think) to see the boot messages (before it hangs)
[01:55] <eapache> bthornton: then assuming that all the components supported that speed, you'd get pretty close to 10x
[01:55] <Centinex> ali1234, thanks.
[01:56] <Elliot_M> how can i get beryl to work with a ATI X1400 graphics card?
[01:56] <ali1234> Centinex: if not, try ctrl-c / F-keys etc
[01:56] <mpetersen> so, anyone know how to disable DMA on 7.04?!
[01:56] <Siph0n> mpetersen: i dont wanna be super user lol, i wanna be just a different user....
[01:56] <eapache> bthornton: I'm not positive though. networks aren't my field
[01:56] <kitche> Siph0n: su - <user>
[01:56] <thedonvaughn> mpetersen: you want to disable DMA?  with your disc drives?
[01:56] <mpetersen> Siph0n: that's what the -u specifies
[01:57] <mpetersen> thedonvaughn: Yes, on install, for 7.04
[01:57] <mongolai> Siph0n, mpetersen's command was for an arbitrary user
[01:57] <Siph0n> oh k thqanx! :)
[01:57] <T-Connection> I got ATI working. I went to Admin, RSD and enabled my ATI card
[01:57] <qos> thedonvaughn, why is it wasted memory?
[01:57] <thedonvaughn> mpetersen: i believe it's turned on by default in the kernel or your module for your controller.  You can use hdparm or sdparm possibly to disable in real time, otherwise need to reconfigure your kernel
[01:57] <thosmos> is there any significant reason to install 7.04 on a LAMP server that will need to potentially run for years, rather than 6.06 LTS?  I doubt I'll get a yes, but I'm just curious.
[01:57] <mongolai> qos, because it's not doing anything
[01:57] <gerro> what command (not file) could I run to find my hard drive location
[01:57] <Elliot_M> how do i get to admin?
[01:57] <qos> mongolai, my server lags ... i am searching for a reason for it?
[01:58] <nickrud> Gerrath, sudo fdisk -l
[01:58] <thedonvaughn> qos: because if memory is being used or in buffer doesn't mean it's not available to other applications.  The OS is constantly swapping out pages of ram to other applications etc.  so free ram is not being used by anything... just wasted
[01:58] <T-Connection> I try the beta ubuntu and it doesn't load right.
[01:58] <mongolai> qos, you're right though. What processes are consuming the most ram?
[01:58] <mpetersen> thedonvaughn: you used to be able to issue 'ide=nodma' as a kernel param, it seems to have stopped working in 7.04.  And hdparm wasn't helping, I'll try sdparm I guess.
[01:58] <gerro> nickrud: thx so much knew it had to be fdisk something
[01:58] <lxgg> hey
[01:58] <thedonvaughn> mpetersen: sdparm is for scsi (and sata i think) hdparm for ide/pata
[01:58] <T-Connection> I can't wait on 7.10 version with new programs.
[01:58] <gerro> nickrud: shame it doesn't work though, I'm on this debian ramdisk I booted up with floppies trying to do net install of ubuntu
[01:59] <mpetersen> thedonvaughn: I have a CF to IDE adapter.  6.06 detects it as hdc.  7.04 seems to think its sda.
[01:59] <lxgg> anybody know a programm where I can generate a list of a external harddisk files and subdirecory list with sizes of files and types of files ?
[01:59] <japhy_ryder> jrib: thanks, its working now, I tried initially using wget as my command and that didn't work thats why I tested with gedit, I must have mistyped the wget commands since they're working now as well
[01:59] <kitche> mpetersen: 7.04 uses libata
[01:59] <nickrud> gerro, odd, that's always given me my fixed partitions
[02:00] <mongolai> qos, what's your swap usage look like?
[02:00] <mpetersen> kitche: Can I not use libata?  Or how do I get libata to do nodma?
[02:00] <qos> mongolai, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27346/ take a look at yourself
[02:00] <gerro> nickrud: all I know is there is a 20gb hard drive in here, it also has a location for a second hard drive
[02:00] <T-Connection> Here is my display set up at. :0.0 How I change it?
[02:00] <DjKoRn`Mac> any flashget like application for linux??? i want the multi-parts download...
[02:00] <mongolai> ok just a sec...
[02:00] <gerro> DjkoRn`Mac: yeah flashget plugin for firefox
[02:00] <jettred2001> am i regesterd
[02:00] <kitche> mpetersen: I haven't looked at the new kernels closely really
[02:01] <T-Connection> I want it set to 1280 x 1024
[02:01] <nickrud> gerro, you mean 'location' as in not a drive, but a hole for a drive?
[02:01] <mpetersen> kitche: ok, thanks though
[02:01] <Gearman> how do i transfer a file from my laptop to my desktop useing wireless network?
[02:01] <Elliot_M> how do i access admin on ubuntu 7.04
[02:01] <Elliot_M> ?
[02:01] <gerro> nickrud: I Just want to know what I need to fdisk to format and partition that hard drive
[02:01] <mpetersen> Elliot_M: with sudo ?
[02:02] <lxgg> anybody know a programm where I can generate a list of a external harddisk files and subdirecory list with sizes of files and types of files ?
[02:02] <Elliot_M> ye
[02:02] <T-Connection> What will happen I change it to :1280.1024?
[02:02] <DjKoRn`Mac> gerro, i mean... a Download manager..... not a plugin... is there any?
[02:02] <Pirate_Hunter> sudo chmod 666 ~/mame/roms/ looks in my home/me/ directory which is weird, I than try cd /, which puts me in root from there I do the path cd /usr/share/games/xmame and I try sudo chmod 666 roms (nothing happens) & if I try the same with /roms or /roms/ it cnat find the directory. seriously how hard is to gain permission to a directory for playing roms?
[02:02] <ali1234> lxgg: you can to that with "ls" and "file"
[02:02] <kmasta> does fglrx support XGL
[02:02] <mongolai> qos, on a side note, are you using ISPConfig?
[02:03] <blackace11> hello, can i get assistance with installing an xbox 360 usb controller to my ubuntu laptop?
[02:03] <qos> mongolai, i dont know what u mean... my ISP hasn anything todo with this server.
[02:03] <nickrud> gerro, you're saying that fdisk is not seeing the 20gb? If so, that's something I haven't seen before, so sorry
[02:03] <qnyc> lxgg, try du
[02:03] <mongolai> qos, ISPConfig is a server administration tool. You'd know if you are using it. ;D
[02:04] <ubuntu> hello all

[02:06] <thornomad> hi ... i am trying some test scripts ... and I keep getting runtime error that says like "echo: bad interpreter: No such file or directory" or "if: bad interpreter: No such file or directory" ... I have tried copying some known working scripts (from web pages) and I get the same errors ... I feel like I am doing something wrong ... don't know what.  any ideas what this is about ?
[02:06] <rcr239> hey im having a problem, i recently installed the linuxMCE on top of 6.10 and i got the Video Out of Range Message, how can i fix this. im new to linux so dont be too harsh :)
[02:06] <mongolai> qos, from the top output, I really can't tell. You most definitely know more about mysql and samba than I do...
[02:06] <ubuntu> but i can't boot into fiesty
[02:06] <ali1234> thornomad: did you start the script with #!/bin/sh
[02:06] <jupengfei> T-Connection, and then try select the correct driver
[02:06] <T-Connection> Ok
[02:06] <thornomad> ali1234: i used #!/bin/bash
[02:06] <Pirate_Hunter> qnyc: so I should go on the lines of sudo chown 666 ~/mame/roms/
[02:06] <reif> test
[02:07] <mongolai> ...perhaps a memory leak somewhere?
[02:07] <Skycloud> urso_ it worked!!!

[02:08] <blackace11> another question is how do i get beryl and beryl-manager to start when ubuntu boots up instead of me typing it every time i boot?
[02:08] <Pirate_Hunter> qnyc: please give me an example cause i seriosuly dont get that and its past midnight make my life easier
[02:08] <crackcorp> thx
[02:08] <ali1234> thornomad: it must be the very first thing in the file also... and the file must be executable too
[02:08] <thingfish> blackace11: you use gnome?
[02:08] <PurpZeY> blackace11: Add beryl-manager to Sessions, in System --> Administration
[02:08] <blackace11> yeah
[02:08] <blackace11> oh
[02:08] <blackace11> ok
[02:08] <mongolai> qos, what's the output of" ps ax"
[02:08] <thingfish> blackace11: ^^
[02:08] <Kyle123> Can you install Ubuntu on a seperate partition that windows is not installed to and when i reboot will it give me the option to boot in to windows or Ubuntu ?
[02:08] <qnyc> Pirate_Hunter, chown username ~/mame/roms/
[02:09] <thingfish> Kyle123: yep
[02:09] <PurpZeY> Kyle123: Yes.
[02:09] <ubuntu> can anyone help with a grub error?
[02:09] <mongolai> Kyle123, it's possible, sure
[02:09] <thornomad> ali1234: yea, is executable ... am running it as ./test.sh ... some "if" statments work, but others throw this error
[02:09] <mongolai> ubuntu, what error
[02:09] <blackace11> it's system preferences
[02:09] <mongolai> ?
[02:09] <Kyle123> when installing Ubuntu will it format that partition ?
[02:09] <ubuntu> error 17
[02:09] <T-Connection> I install ubuntu on slave drive to keep my xp from boot error.
[02:09] <technel> I have a second hard drive that I am using. I have it mounted with permissions to myself (I think). "rails" is a command to generate a boilerplate file structure for Ruby on Rails applications. When I run "rails test", the files are generated OK up until this message: "Operation not permitted - test/script/about". Any ideas?
[02:09] <PurpZeY> Kyle123: Not the windows partition.
[02:09] <reif> test
[02:09] <thingfish> Kyle123: just install ubuntu, it'll take care of it.
[02:09] <ubuntu> here's my partition table
[02:09] <ali1234> thornomad: pastebin it and i'll take a look
[02:10] <thingfish> Kyle123: just make sure you don't pick the windows partition when you install ubuntu.
[02:10] <Kyle123> the thing is i have 2 partitions one 1 windows and other stuff on 2 there are games and stuff like that, will it format and delete everythign on partition 2 were i want to install it ?
[02:10] <blackace11> hello, can i get assistance with installing an xbox 360 usb controller to my ubuntu laptop?
[02:10] <thingfish> Kyle123: if you want to keep those two partitions, you'll need a third for ubuntu.
[02:10] <Pirate_Hunter> thanx will try that but if I do the way u posted it will look in /home/me/ directory so I have to literally go into the actual path where the folder is. I know thats not normal
[02:10] <MarcN> ubuntu: have you tried google?  http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/slackware-linux-help/54246-grub-error-17-a.html
[02:10] <PurpZeY> Kyle123: It would delete whatever is on a partition you selected, but you can create a 3rd
[02:10] <ubuntu>    Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
[02:10] <ubuntu> /dev/sda1   *           1       15659   125780886    7  HPFS/NTFS
[02:10] <ubuntu> /dev/sda2           15660       15908     2000092+  82  Linux swap / Solaris
[02:10] <ubuntu> /dev/sda3           15909       30401   116415022+  83  Linux
[02:11] <mongolai> The partitioner is one thing the ubuntu installer needs to be more clear about.
[02:11] <qnyc> !pastebin > ubuntu
[02:11] <Kyle123> ok cool, how much space does Ubuntu need for the install roughly ?
[02:11] <thornomad> ali1234: just a second, putting it together
[02:11] <thornomad> thanks
[02:11] <gerro> nickrud: think you could look this over https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/WithFloppies then search for "I chose a mirror close to me," I'm stuck on that part of guide :(
[02:11] <qnyc> Pirate_Hunter, I'm not following you
[02:11] <qos> mongolai, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27348/
[02:11] <rcr239> can anyone help me out question ?
[02:11] <thingfish> Kyle123: 10G ought to be plenty
[02:11] <PurpZeY> !ask | rcr239
[02:11] <ubotu> rcr239: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:11] <Kyle123> ok cool, and that 10g would be install files and have enough extra to play with ?
[02:11] <thingfish> Kyle123: 20 would be better
[02:11] <ansimation> if I run apt-get dist-upgrade, will that upgrade me to feisty? from dapper which I am using currently?
[02:12] <blackace11> hello, can i get assistance with installing an xbox 360 usb controller to my ubuntu laptop?
[02:12] <rcr239> hey im having a problem, i recently installed the linuxMCE on top of 6.10 and i got the Video Out of Range Message, how can i fix this. im new to linux so dont be too harsh :)
[02:12] <nickrud> gerro, a sec
[02:12] <ali1234> thornomad: pastebin it and i'll take a look
[02:12] <Pirate_Hunter> qnyc: if i try ~/mame/roms it gives me no such directory or folder in /home/me/etc... which means its looking in the wrong place
[02:12] <thingfish> Kyle123: you'll have a hard time filling up 20gb with a linux install + other apps you choose to install.
[02:12] <PurpZeY> Kyle123: 15-20g for breathing room.
[02:12] <Kyle123> alright cool thanx guys
[02:12] <thingfish> :)
[02:12] <qnyc> Pirate_Hunter, ~ means /home/me/
[02:12] <mongolai> qos, I should have asked this in the beginning: What kind of load was the top output coming from?
[02:12] <thornomad> ali1234: pastebin .. you mean at paste.debian.net ? or something else ?
[02:12] <strombo>  :o
[02:13] <rustalot> my two key is messed up
[02:13] <jupengfei> ansimation,   No, you must instead  the source.lst to feisty's
[02:13] <qnyc> Pirate_Hunter, we're saying you should make a mame subdirectory under your home, instead of in /usr
[02:13] <ali1234> thornomad: anywhere you like
[02:13] <rustalot> whenever i press it it goes 2222222
[02:13] <fogwar> hey guys. how do i run gparted from terminal?
[02:13] <ali1234> thornomad: just not in the channel, k? ;)
[02:13] <qnyc> Pirate_Hunter, you can change mame's config to point wherever
[02:13] <Ecnerifed_> can anyone help me out with setting up a simple local cacti setup please? i cant get it working and theres no1 around in #cacti - thanks alot :)
[02:13] <qos> mongolai, kind of load?
[02:13] <PurpZeY> rustalot: Sounds like the key is broken, physically.
[02:13] <thornomad> ali1234: smile, no problem. let me try paste.debian.net ... first time it wouldn't take it.
[02:13] <pilgrim> hey y'all. what happened to my /dev/hda ..it doesn't exist!
[02:13] <T-Connection> brb
[02:13] <ansimation> jupengfei: if I change the repositories in sources.list to fiesty's repositories, it'll upgrade it?
[02:13] <nickrud> gerro, by that he means the repository mirror that he uses to get the deb packages from; I'm assuming he just accepted the default.
[02:14] <mongolai> qos, yea, system load. How many clients connected to your server?
[02:14] <ansimation> so wtf does dist-upgrade do then exactly?
[02:14] <jupengfei> ansimation,  yes
[02:14] <gerro> nickrud: well on my screen it says set users and passwords and that doesn't work so I pressed alt f2 and tried using fdisk
[02:14] <Frogzoo> Ecnerifed_: cacti has extensive documentation if you look
[02:14] <thornomad> ali1234: http://paste.debian.net/31489
[02:14] <gerro> nickrud: just trying to show you where I'm coming from sort of confused
[02:14] <Pirate_Hunter> qnyc: hmmm I didnt know thats what you were trying to say, hmm I was thinking something else. Yeah I kow that but I wnated to try in usr cause it would help me when I need to mount or gain permission to other folders
[02:15] <pilgrim> I have an IDE HD and I want to run fdisk on it. However there is no /dev/hda
[02:15] <jupengfei> ansimation, then you do dist-upgrade, it will upgrade your system automaticly
[02:15] <pilgrim> where did it go?
[02:15] <nickrud> gerro, you might want to step back a few steps. The debian installer will let you. It sounds like you missed the disk formatting step
[02:15] <freak__> c.langochat.net
[02:15] <qos> mongolai, i think the heaviest load comes from an running filesharing process... but i shut it down... its not in the output ;) blame me
[02:16] <jupengfei> pilgrim,  if you know less about fdisk, you can try Gparted
[02:16] <mongolai> qos, samba?
[02:16] <gerro> nickrud: it has no go back option and esc doesn't work :/
[02:16] <ansimation> jupengfei: I get that, but if it's using the dapper repositories (which it is now) what will running dist-upgrade do?
[02:16] <SAM_theman> Hehe
[02:16] <rcr239> how can i set my resolution if i cannot get into gui, i keep getting unsupported resolution on my monitor
[02:16] <pilgrim> jupengfei, I don't know less about fdisk. I'm comfortable with it, I'm just wondering where is my HDA?
[02:16] <gerro> nickrud: I'm going to read the guides he mentions that he used, but this article is sooo old he was installing hoary
[02:17] <qos> mongolai, not that kind of filesharing. its a torrent client ;)
[02:17] <nickrud> gerro, if my memory serves, you can just keep hitting the cancel button. At some point you get to a menu of all install options
[02:17] <robert_> has 2.6.21 been patched to work with ubuntu yet?
[02:17] <mongolai> qos, OOooohh. Gotcha!
[02:17] <jupengfei> It seemed ubuntu can upgrade dapper to edgy, and from edgy to feisty.
[02:17] <Ecnerifed_> Frogzoo: ive looked in the docs, but i would think a localhost connection doesnt need SNMP?
[02:17] <mongolai> qos, yea, that'll do it
[02:17] <qnyc> pilgrim, look for /dev/sda
[02:17] <blackace11> hello, can i get assistance with installing an xbox 360 usb controller to my ubuntu laptop?
[02:17] <jupengfei> Pilgrim  It seemed ubuntu can upgrade dapper to edgy, and from edgy to feisty.
[02:18] <Pirate_Hunter> somehow ive gained access I dont know which of the commands did it but ive done it and it is only for that folder so thanx
[02:18] <qos> mongolai, but top reports just 2-5% cpu usage ... and 3.5-6% mem usage
[02:18] <pilgrim> qnyc, strange. why is it sda all of a sudden?
[02:18] <blackace11> hello, can i get assistance with installing an xbox 360 usb controller to my ubuntu laptop?
[02:18] <qos> mongolai, seems to be not much
[02:18] <mongolai> rcr239, edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf  and put a feasible resolution in the appropriate range.
[02:18] <pilgrim> jupengfei, I am on feisty buddy. Thanks though :)
[02:18] <PurpZeY> blackace11: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=318382&highlight=xbox+360+edgy
[02:18] <qnyc> pilgrim, not sure, running feisty here and ide does seem to be emulated as scsi
[02:18] <blackace11> i not running edgy
[02:18] <blackace11> it's fiesty
[02:18] <rcr239> i can do that from recovery mode mongolai
[02:19] <jettred2001> I am still so very lost on the java download
[02:19] <ali1234> thornomad: i get no error when i run that...
[02:19] <pilgrim> qnyc, ahh...whatever. thanks for your help.
[02:19] <PurpZeY> blackace11: That tutorial should still work subject to changes found here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=404577
[02:19] <Pirate_Hunter> pilgrim: hmm I sense a harsh tone in you
[02:19] <Skycloud> urso_ yeah I think it was a bios problem, all I did was put another hd in and made it the master, and the old one a slave
[02:19] <thornomad> ali1234: yea isn't that strange ? i searched google for those errors ... but I couldn't find anyhintg ... I get: "$ chmod +x test.sh && ./test.sh
[02:19] <thornomad> if: bad interpreter: No such file or directory"
[02:19] <blackace11> my friend was working on this earlier and when i rebooted it wouldn't load
[02:19] <qnyc> what's the problem jettred2001
[02:20] <nickrud> gerro, I'm sorry but I've gotta go. Work for the day is done, I'm headed for home.
[02:20] <jupengfei> pilgrim,   I haven't see such problem
[02:20] <blackace11> so he went to recovery and deleted that stuff
[02:20] <jettred2001> I have no Idea what to do
[02:20] <gerro> nickrud: it says debian installer/ main menu, but more importantly is it possible I can load up usb drivers on floppy and do a usb install? my bios doesn't support booting from usb but I already have a usb with xubuntu installed
[02:20] <urso_> Skycloud right that what i was think you nede to change the jumper .... in your hd beford put it in thepc :)
[02:20] <qnyc> jettred2001, trying to install sun java?
[02:20] <PurpZeY> blackace11: I'm genuinely unsure if I can help you set it up, but, please be a little more descriptive anyway.
[02:20] <Skycloud> urso_ I gtg, I'm going to log onto irc on the gentoo computer
[02:20] <urso_> Skycloud so wellcome to linux ubuntu :)
[02:20] <jupengfei> pilgrim, sorry,  maybe you can use some disk tools, like PQ...
[02:21] <Skycloud> urso_ thx ^.^
[02:21] <blackace11> oh ok
[02:21] <jettred2001> yes
[02:21] <blackace11> i'll run through it and try

[02:24] <T-Connection> Ok I have the Package Configuration up. So what now?
[02:24] <thornomad> ali1234: i don't think so. i am running the server edition ... i can't figure it out.  other if/else statments works, no errors ... i don't understand.  if i run this one: http://paste.debian.net/31491 it works.  i can't figure it

[02:30] <bruenig> unagi, don't do that
[02:30] <thornomad> ali1234: i tried it on another script, and it does just that ... however, when I do it on this script (the one I showed you) I get nothing

[02:30] <qos> kmasta, my ati works fine

[02:31] <cotyrothery> please help
[02:31] <bruenig> unagi, don't ever use rpms again, sudo dpkg -r --force-all awcommon
[02:31] <unagi> i know that,......which is why i used alien to convert them
[02:31] <thornomad> ali1234: sorry, don't follow ... what's that mean ?
[02:31] <bruenig> unagi, don't use alien to convert them
[02:31] <bruenig> unagi, rm them, get them off your computer
[02:31] <qos> mongolai, i lowered the number of clients. i hope that solves it. the problem was solved after shuting the filesharing process...

[02:32] <mongolai> qos, that's good to know!
[02:32] <bruenig> unagi, if there was a foolproof way to convert rpm to deb, do you not think that dpkg would have it built in?
[02:32] <ProN00b> wow dia seems aweasome, thanks !
[02:32] <thornomad> i used smultron (for mac os x) ... the same editor I did the others in (that are working)

[02:32] <mongolai> anyone else have trouble getting xorg to run at a certain, *known good* resolution and refresh rate?
[02:33] <ali1234> thornomad: can you run the script under mac os? (you should have /bin/sh at least)
[02:33] <Pirate_Hunter> off topic: is it me or there is something about using ubuntu that stops you from downloading junk compared to windows, its like on windows one would download programs that wreent useful yet in ubuntu everything is relevant and if it isn't it wont be downloaded
[02:33] <qos> mongolai, thanks for your help. my bed is calling me ... see u
[02:33] <qnyc> jettred2001, install it the same way, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[02:33] <unagi> didnt work
[02:33] <mongolai> qos, later. Sleep well!
[02:33] <bruenig> Pirate_Hunter, it is you
[02:33] <qnyc> jettred2001, or use the synaptic package manager (gui)

[02:34] <thornomad> ali1234: interesting ... i get the same error.  this is really odd.
[02:34] <unagi> i was under the impression that mostly only happens when its system based rpm
[02:34] <bruenig> tony_00021, nano is the easiest
[02:34] <Pirate_Hunter> bruenig: lol & i thought other were the same I guess I'll leave ubuntu the way it is and windows heck windows will be windows
[02:34] <mongolai> tony_00021, try nano, or pico. they are the same thing, easier than vi
[02:34] <eapache> tony_00021: try pico

[02:35] <thornomad> ali1234: i think it may be the editor ... because if i run a "cat" on it ... it doesn't display right ... let me look at the encoding of my editor ... that is odd ...
[02:36] <mongolai> tony_00021, sweet!
[02:36] <qnyc> jettred2001, what are you doing?
[02:36] <bruenig> unagi, you recognize that rpms and debs have functionality which allows scripts to be run at certain parts of the install, those scripts are system specific and since ubuntu does thing differently than rpms distros, those scripts can error or could do something malicious leaving dpkg angry at you. If you want to use alien at the very least extract the deb afterwards and inspect it
[02:36] <blackace11> now that i have my xpad saved and it works on calibration... is there a program where i can use it in place of keystrokes, even on my desktop?
[02:36] <ali1234> thornomad: it sounds like something to do with the encoding, yeah. try running nano on the server, and pasting it into the shell window, that should fix any encoding problems.
[02:36] <blackace11> not just in gaames
[02:36] <Pirate_Hunter> well time for bed 1:35 and im done for today got commands for gaining file permission and im happy for now "one step closer to mastering ubuntu... lol"
[02:36] <unagi> so what should i do to fix this
[02:36] <jrib> ProN00b: the article mentions "dotty"
[02:37] <jettred2001> qnyc : trying to download java so I can play yahoo games
[02:37] <bruenig> unagi, sudo dpkg -r --force-all is the strongest removal command I know of
[02:37] <qnyc> jettred2001, I though you said you got it after you ran: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin
[02:38] <BennyH> I am having problems updating ubuntu. Just installed it and went to update but it asks for a administrative password. I was never prompted for one during setup.
[02:38] <blackace11> now that i have my xpad saved and it works on calibration... is there a program where i can use it in place of keystrokes, even on my desktop?
[02:38] <bruenig> BennyH, it is your user password
[02:38] <BennyH> I tryed that
[02:38] <thornomad> ali1234: yea ... seems so ... what should i have for encoding ?  it says it is using UTF-8
[02:38] <blackace11> gnomefreak!
[02:38] <unagi> so basically im screwed
[02:38] <ali1234> thornomad: ascii (although utf-8 should work on ubuntu, i think)
[02:38] <Siph0n> i get this error, Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server , when trying to use sudo -u <usr> gedit filename
[02:39] <Siph0n> any ideas why?
[02:39] <ProN00b> jrib, yeah, i tried that, looks like something a 5 year old programmed after his brain structure got messed up by beeing thaught vi/emacs were good editors
[02:39] <mongolai> Siph0n, use gksudo instead
[02:39] <Siph0n> mongolai:  ok thx
[02:39] <mongolai> oh,wait
[02:39] <asdf> Does anyone know if it is possible to rearrange your open tabs in the menu bar?
[02:39] <asdf> open apps*
[02:39] <blackace11> gnomefreak, are you familiar with the xbox game controller?
[02:39] <asdf> like task bar shuffle for Windows XP
[02:39] <gnomefreak> blackace11: no
[02:40] <thornomad> ali1234: interesting ... when i paste into nano and save I read this at the bottom "File Name to Write [Mac Format] " ... so I think I am pasting a problem ...
[02:40] <mongolai> Siph0n, use gksu instead
[02:40] <ali1234> blackace11: i use the xpad
[02:40] <blackace11> do you know any programs that i can run that will emulate it as a mouse/keyboard
[02:40] <Ecnerifed_> Ive installed cacti and i just wanna use it to monitor localhost, but its not showing any graphs :S anyone help pleeeeeeez?
[02:40] <blackace11> thanks i use it as xpad
[02:40] <X_100_Destino_X> algum ai fala portugus??
[02:40] <blackace11> and it is calibrated properly
[02:40] <Ecnerifed_> pls help me out!! :D
[02:40] <Siph0n> gksudo gives me this: No protocol specified
[02:40] <ali1234> blackace11: there is a program like that, i think it's called xkeys
[02:40] <jrib> !pt | X_100_Destino_X
[02:40] <ubotu> X_100_Destino_X: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[02:40] <mongolai> Siph0n, try gksu
[02:40] <Noah0504> What email client does everyone use?  I'm having trouble choosing between Thunderbird 2 and Evolution.
[02:41] <blackace11> ty, can i get that in synaptic?
[02:41] <ali1234> thornomad: yes. i guess you'll have to type it again :/
[02:41] <thornomad> ali1234: am getting the same error when i do it that way ... does nano have its "own" paste call ... like its CTRL-K for cut ?
[02:41] <mongolai> anyone here know of a GTK/GNOME based man page browser?
[02:41] <ali1234> blackace11: yes, i'm sure it is in there, just forget the name
[02:41] <X_100_Destino_X> Thank's
[02:41] <p47> hello does anybody knows how can I run swat4 on linux ?
[02:41] <Siph0n> gksu gives the same error
[02:41] <p47> hello does anybody knows how can I run swat4 on linux ?
[02:42] <jrib> mongolai: gman?
[02:42] <asdf> Does anyone know how to rearrange the open apps in the menubar in gnome like task bar shuffle for windows?
[02:42] <jettred2001> qnyc: ok I am getting it downloaded now
[02:42] <blackace11> i just installed it
[02:42] <mongolai> Siph0n, lemme make a new user and try it out. Just a sec...
[02:42] <ali1234> thornomad: no, because it is a console app - pasting is controlled by the local terminal window
[02:42] <Siph0n> mongolai: awesome thx :)
[02:42] <hellpmeh> good morning earthlings! it's 9:08am
[02:42] <mongolai> jrib, that's probably the one, thanks!
[02:42] <unagi> sigh
[02:42] <Pici> mongolai: check out gman
[02:43] <mongolai> Pici, Thanks, I will!
[02:43] <blackace11> how do i run it?
[02:43] <hellpmeh> im on desktop ubuntu now and i have an unformated partition,how do i format that partition if on desktop xwindow of ubuntu 7.04?what program should i use?
[02:43] <blackace11> terminal -> xkeys ?
[02:43] <ali1234> thornomad: it might have it's own clipboard but that is not accessable from outside nano
[02:43] <qnyc> hellpmeh, gparted
[02:43] <p47> hello does anybody knows how can I run swat4 on linux ?
[02:44] <ali1234> blackace11: xkeys is the wrong program, sorry :/
[02:44] <Ecnerifed_> can no one help me eh? =/
[02:44] <blackace11> lol
[02:44] <blackace11> k
[02:44] <jrib> !please > Ecnerifed_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:44] <hellpmeh> gnyc, is that by default installed or should i use apt-get to install gparted or automatix?
[02:44] <T-Connection> Ok I give up on this. Something is wrong. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[02:44] <thornomad> ali1234: this is really wierd ... if i create the file from scratch, no problem ... only if i paste it in ... same commands ... that is strange.  i don't know whose fault that is but it is disturbing.  stupid mac
[02:44] <ali1234> blackace11: you need qjoypad
[02:44] <qnyc> hellpmeh, use apt-get to install gparted, NEVER use automatix
[02:45] <blackace11> k
[02:45] <blackace11> synaptic?

[02:45] <hellpmeh> why not automatix?what will happen if i use automatix?

[02:45] <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

[02:45] <qnyc> hellpmeh, synaptic is great
[02:45] <blackace11> not on synaptic
[02:46] <blackace11> were would i get it?
[02:46] <T-Connection> If it doesn't work then forget it. XD
[02:46] <ali1234> blackace11: probably. search for it...
[02:46] <Ecnerifed_> does oneone think that they might be able to help me with a very simple cacti setup
[02:46] <Ecnerifed_> ?

[02:47] <blackace11> i used search on synaptic and couldn't find it
[02:47] <thornomad> ali1234: something about when I paste ... that is strange.  i might have to ask the people who created the program about that.  amazing.
[02:47] <T-Connection> Don't use those betas.

[02:50] <root___> that worked for more than a day?
[02:51] <gnomefreak> blackace11: follow the instruction on that link

[02:51] <blackace11> k...brb
[02:51] <hellpmeh> is reiserfs better than ext3?
[02:51] <PanzerMKZ> I don't like 7.04

[02:51] <gdb> T-Connection: Can you define what you mean?
[02:51] <ali1234> blackace11: if you have installed joy2key then you already have enabled universe
[02:51] <Pici> hellpmeh: if you have to ask why to use it, there isnt a reason to use it.
[02:51] <webmaren> so anybody wanna shed some light on fixing my screen res
[02:52] <T-Connection> The Termal doesn't seem to work right.
[02:52] <hellpmeh> what a politician answer you have there mr Pici
[02:52] <mongolai> webmaren, I'm also waiting for an xorg guru. It might be a while.
[02:52] <webmaren> to the intarweb!
[02:52] <PanzerMKZ> what is that then
[02:52] <PanzerMKZ> dpkp reset xorg
[02:52] <PanzerMKZ> or something like that
[02:52] <gdb> T-Connection: And what is it doing incorrectly for you?

[02:54] <cotyrothery> come on guys is anyone able to help out
[02:54] <cotyrothery> this is serious to me
[02:54] <jrib> blackace11: you need to use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to make large pastes
[02:55] <cotyrothery> I did all the reconfiguring
[02:55] <blackace11> ok thanks jrib
[02:55] <cotyrothery> but it keeps giving me the xserver crap
[02:55] <mongolai> webmaren, wanna race to fix our issues?
[02:55] <T-Connection> lol
[02:55] <webmaren> mongolai: i just want mine fixed
[02:55] <ali1234> blackace11: you must configure joy2key properly. read "man joy2key"
[02:55] <T-Connection> How I get rid of hidden junkies?
[02:56] <blackace11> were do i find the file?
[02:56] <mongolai> webmaren, me too. But we seem to have a similar issue...

[02:56] <kitche> cotyrothery: say what's wrong

[02:56] <webmaren> mongolai: what's your problem
[02:56] <T-Connection> I know on XP I can use 3 programs to get rid of hidden crap.
[02:57] <mongolai> webmaren, I need to force xorg to go into 1280X1024 @ 75 Hz
[02:57] <jrib> T-Connection: there is no hidden junk in linux really, apps tend to  be honest since they are open source
[02:57] <cotyrothery> kitche: well when I plug in my new card and I reconfigure everything to voodoo and all the right settings I get a problem with the x server with a blue screen
[02:57] <T-Connection> Oh ok.
[02:57] <Pici> T-Connection: What kind of hidden junk are you expecting?
[02:57] <webmaren> mongolai, you have to force that, really, wow
[02:57] <mongolai> yes, I do
[02:57] <kitche> cotyrothery: then your xorg.conf is not configured correctly
[02:57] <cotyrothery> kitche: it even tolled me the same thing when I tried to do live cd
[02:57] <PanzerMKZ> but what of the updating the system all the time. It breaks things.
[02:57] <T-Connection> Like things that isn't fully uninstall.
[02:58] <T-Connection> Or leftovers.
[02:58] <PanzerMKZ> had 686 SMP kernel

[03:00] <qnyc> hellpmeh, what filesystem?
[03:00] <ant_> and X -configre creates Xorg.conf.new i think
[03:00] <hellpmeh> i formated it as fat32
[03:00] <hellpmeh> i formated it as fat32 using gparted
[03:00] <kitche> cotyrothery: sudo cp
[03:00] <T-Connection> webmaren use the drivers that ubuntu have listed.

[03:02] <hellpmeh> it cannot handle 4gn qnyc
[03:02] <T-Connection> I seen those Nivida drivers on there.
[03:02] <hellpmeh> 4gb rather
[03:02] <ant_> cotyrothery use mv instead of cp
[03:02] <cotyrothery> ok
[03:02] <hellpmeh> but when i tried 3gb yes i got no problem
[03:02] <ali1234> blackace11: about joy2key? i'll help you configure it
[03:02] <cotyrothery> oh god this is a pain
[03:03] <hellpmeh> its formatting now
[03:03] <cotyrothery> I should have never got this dumb thing
[03:03] <cotyrothery> or is it ubuntu
[03:03] <qnyc> hellpmeh, maybe it's trying to make it slightly over 4
[03:03] <r00tintheb0x> cotyrothery take it easy.... you're making a simple mistake.
[03:03] <ant_> cotyrothery, did you backup your xorg.conf?
[03:03] <r00tintheb0x> cotyrothery "sudo cp /what/you/want/to/copy /where/you/want/to/copy/it/to"
[03:03] <blackace11> alil234 did you get side message?
[03:03] <hellpmeh> then i guess i have to format this disk new partition 28gb using ext3 or what reiserfs?
[03:03] <hellpmeh> what do you think qnyc?
[03:04] <ali1234> blackace11: no, you must be registered with nickserv
[03:04] <kitche> ant_: no since that is what he's doing now
[03:04] <blackace11> oh how?
[03:04] <cotyrothery> don't worry about backing it up
[03:04] <webmaren> oh, thanks T-Connection
[03:04] <r00tintheb0x> cotyrothery how do you figure its a pain, its more simple than Windows right click copy, right click paste.
[03:04] <ali1234> blackace11: /msg nickserv help
[03:04] <r00tintheb0x> cotyrothery what are you trying to accomplish... i can help.
[03:04] <qnyc> hellpmeh, I recommend ext3

[03:05] <r00tintheb0x> cotyrothery Voodoo im taking it means ATI?
[03:05] <T-Connection> For Nvidia users. Go to Synaptic Package Manager and type Nvidia on search.

[03:07] <hellpmeh> can gparted format a /dev/sda5(fat32) or /media/disk to a new format ext3?
[03:07] <Pici> leinuz: ask a question.
[03:07] <Ramon> hello... i just installed ubuntu and its not starting the X server
[03:07] <randoman> what would cause Xinerama to turn off direct rendering
[03:07] <randoman> ?
[03:08] <Ecnerifed_> Ive installed cacti and i just wanna use it to monitor localhost, but its not showing any graphs :S anyone help pleez?
[03:08] <T-Connection> I don't use that faq. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI - I use Restricted Drivers to install ATI.
[03:08] <cotyrothery> r00tintheb0x: if you get this to work for me I owe you a TON
[03:08] <cotyrothery> for keeping me sane
[03:08] <kismet> I have 2GB of ram and 1.9Gb is being used is that normal?
[03:08] <leinuz> Pici: I can t PM you Why
[03:09] <Ramon> anyone can help me?
[03:09] <hellpmeh> how can i format a /dev/sda5(fat32 21gb) or /media/disk to a new format ext3?
[03:09] <epidemic> i don't know, i'm trying to get something that supports opengl better...
[03:09] <Ramon> I just installed ubuntu and its not starting the gui
[03:09] <Ramon> i have an old IBM crt monitor
[03:09] <leinuz> Pici: During Update I got Error from cache
[03:10] <Selrach> I have a problem. When I managed to install ubuntu via the alternative ISO, during bootup I get dropped to a text session. The last few lines before it prompts for a text login is this: Loading ACPI modules.. | Starting ACPI Services... | Killed. Anyone have any idea whats going on?
[03:10] <thirso> how do i find out if my output device is /dev/dsp, /dev/dsp1 or something else?
[03:10] <cotyrothery> kismet: how the heck are you using so much ram
[03:10] <kismet> cotyrothery, i have no clue -> Mem:   2073976k total,  2017180k used,    56796k free,   533428k buffers
[03:10] <qnyc> kismet, it's perfectly normal
[03:11] <PanzerMKZ> so I have dapper installed
[03:11] <cotyrothery> kismet: what are you running in the background
[03:11] <PanzerMKZ> and I have turned off the updater
[03:11] <gdb> kismet: Yes, it is normal.  Linux uses free memory (that which is not being used for running programs) as a disk cache.
[03:11] <qnyc> linux actually takes advantage of your ram ;)
[03:11] <ztomic> hellpmeh: first unmount the drive. Then #man mkfs.vfat
[03:11] <PanzerMKZ> but yet it still updates
[03:11] <kismet> cotyrothery, i am using wine and mounted partitions
[03:11] <hellpmeh> oh i got it now,unmount then format
[03:11] <PanzerMKZ> how do I stop it
[03:11] <PanzerMKZ> ?
[03:11] <cotyrothery> well look in your process to see what is taking it all
[03:11] <hellpmeh> thanks anyways ztomic
[03:11] <Selrach> the strange thing is when I tried installing just plain Debian, it booted up just fine...
[03:11] <kismet> qnyc, just won't fry it will it?
[03:11] <kismet> and the swap is barely being used
[03:11] <thirso> how do i find out if my output device is /dev/dsp, /dev/dsp1 or something else?
[03:11] <Ramon> i need assistance!
[03:12] <Ramon> someone who can help me?
[03:12] <Neil___> hey guys, I have a quick question...
[03:12] <qnyc> kismet, lol no it's normal for the reason gdb gave
[03:12] <Ramon> there's no way with any linux distro to start the X server
[03:12] <Neil___> is linux mint supported by ubuntu?
[03:12] <T-Connection> I thought Debian came with ubuntu?
[03:12] <Ramon> please someone send me a private
[03:12] <Selrach> Ramon, is your problem with all the distros you've tried?
[03:12] <kismet> qnyc, ok cool coz i am using superkaramba and its been like at max bar for just about ever :/
[03:12] <Neil___> Does anyone know if ubuntu support linux mint?
[03:13] <ztomic> Isn't Ubuntu GREAT!
[03:13] <cotyrothery> kismet: what process is using the most of your ram did you look
[03:13] <Pici> T-Connection: Ubuntu is a derivation of Debian
[03:13] <epidemic> that deserves a question mark, not an exclamation...
[03:13] <epidemic> :P
[03:13] <T-Connection> Oh ok
[03:13] <kismet> cotyrothery, how do i check that?
[03:13] <gdb> cotyrothery: the kernel is, you're trying to solve a non-existant problem
[03:13] <qnyc> Neil___, nope
[03:13] <Pici> !debian > T-Connection (see the pm from ubotu)
[03:13] <cotyrothery> well I have 760 mb of ram
[03:13] <ztomic> epidemic: was that for me?
[03:13] <cotyrothery> and only 200 mb is in use
[03:13] <nephish> hello all
[03:13] <Neil___> qnyc: Even though it's a modification of ubuntu, and uses the feisty repositories?
[03:13] <dick-richardson> Are we going to be able to install ubuntu on a nokia n800 with gutsy?
[03:13] <epidemic> ztomic: correct
[03:14] <Neil___> Assuming any help you got for ubuntu would partially apply to mint..
[03:14] <kitche> Neil___: no
[03:14] <ztomic> epidemic: are you having problems?
[03:14] <qnyc> cotyrothery, as we've said, it's normal
[03:14] <kismet> cotyrothery, would activity on ntfs partitons cause high usage of ram?
[03:14] <gdb> cotyrothery: of actual running software
[03:14] <nephish> how can i get out of gnome and x to just have a terminal ?
[03:14] <greyfrog> !alpha | dick-richardson
[03:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about alpha - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:14] <gdb> he's looking at total RAM allocated, which should be basically everything
[03:14] <cotyrothery> dude I have ran 3 os's on my computer and not use all my ram
[03:14] <epidemic> ztomic: i was joking when I said that
[03:14] <gdb> programs + disk cache
[03:14] <cotyrothery> that does not sound normal
[03:14] <greyfrog> dick-richardson, should prolly ask in #ubuntu+1
[03:14] <gdb> ok
[03:14] <kitche> nephish: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[03:14] <ztomic> epidemic: ahh! ok???????????????????
[03:14] <ztomic> hehe
[03:14] <Sasa> hi all, I just installed GParted...I do not see it in any of the menus.....how can I run it?
[03:14] <kismet> nephish, alt+f1, or you want to close gui altogether sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop
[03:15] <Selrach> Excuse me, can anyone help me?
[03:15] <dick-richardson> greyfrog: will do, thank you!
[03:15] <jrib> Sasa: system -> administration -> GNOME Partition Editor
[03:15] <Pici> !ask | Selrach
[03:15] <ubotu> Selrach: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:15] <Selrach> ... lol
[03:15] <johndoc> So how do I hack the gibson from my ubuntu machine?
[03:15] <Sasa> jrib: YOU ROCK
[03:15] <T-Connection> Ok Pici
[03:15] <Selrach> I have a problem. When I managed to install ubuntu via the alternative ISO, during bootup I get dropped to a text session. The last few lines before it prompts for a text login is this: Loading ACPI modules.. | Starting ACPI Services... | Killed. Anyone have any idea whats going on? (repost)
[03:15] <jrib> !gutsy > johndoc (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:15] <kismet> I used the "top" command and Xorg = 117mb
[03:15] <ircblood> how ccccan i restart my cpu from terminal?
[03:15] <jrib> johndoc: is that what you mean?
[03:16] <gdb> ircblood: $ sudo reboot
[03:16] <cotyrothery> Kismet go to system >> administration >> system monitor
[03:16] <kismet> cotyrothery, i am on kde
[03:16] <cotyrothery> Oh
[03:16] <nephish> alt+ f1 isn't doing anything. i have restricted nvidia drivers locking me up and i need to get rid of them
[03:16] <cotyrothery> #kubuntu
[03:16] <cotyrothery> go there
[03:16] <greyfrog> nephish, ctrl+alt+f1
[03:16] <mongolai> Selrach, it seems that your ACPI implementation is not properly supported.
[03:16] <kitche> nephish: yeah the new nvidia drivers fix that
[03:16] <Selrach> theres a problem there
[03:16] <Selrach> if I disable it
[03:16] <Selrach> i get droped to BusyBox
[03:17] <kitche> greyfrog: that won't help him with the nvidia drivers that ubuntu uses by default
[03:17] <Selrach> under the kernel boot command
[03:17] <nephish> can i do that at the gdm login screen?
[03:17] <Drew> or get freebsd
[03:17] <Drew> =)
[03:17] <johndoc> lolz, not quite jrib
[03:17] <jrib> johndoc: k, what did you mean?
[03:17] <Selrach> strange thing is Debian has no issues with my ACPI
[03:17] <johndoc> Drew!  I was just asking how to hack the gibson from my ubuntu machine.  You know anything about that?
[03:17] <thosmos> dselect ROCKS!!
[03:17] <Selrach> nor Mandriva...
[03:17] <jrib> !enter | Selrach
[03:17] <ubotu> Selrach: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:17] <T-Connection> I always wonder why my Soyo showing that I have 2 Intel 4 3.20ghz.
[03:17] <Selrach> okay
[03:17] <Selrach> >_<
[03:17] <Drew> johndoc of coarse I do
[03:18] <calc> Selrach: hmm if it works on debian but not on ubuntu you might want to file a bug mentioning which exact debian kernel and revision works
[03:18] <greyfrog> kitche, didn't know that, thanks for the info...
[03:18] <Drew> I EAT gibsons for breakfast and lunch
[03:18] <Ecnerifed_> Ive installed cacti and i just wanna use it to monitor localhost, but its not showing any graphs :S anyone help pleez?
[03:18] <advancedsimplici> How can I have terminal open up saw, 3 blank tabs everytime I open terminal?
[03:18] <Drew> I eat real food for dinner
[03:18] <kitche> greyfrog: the default binary drivers seem to have a bug in them that is fixed in the drivers they just released
[03:18] <johndoc> Me too bro
[03:18] <leinuzMei> HELP

[03:18] <T-Connection> What is your favorite screen saver?
[03:19] <Drew> ati based video card?
[03:19] <calc> T-Connection: blank

[03:19] <Selrach> but its chipset is ATI i believe
[03:19] <Drew> I feel bad for you
[03:19] <johndoc> jrib, i wasn't talking about gutsy
[03:19] <ztomic> leinuzMei: ask your question.
[03:19] <advancedsimplici> someone auto complete my name with just saying Hi or something please.
[03:19] <johndoc> speaking of gutsy though, i do have a serious question
[03:19] <gdb> advancedsimplici: hi
[03:19] <advancedsimplici> gdb: thanks.
[03:19] <calc> johndoc: ask it then
[03:19] <Drew> johndoc its not like you use ubuntu
[03:19] <Selrach> hmph
[03:19] <kismet> cotyrothery, i am looking via kde info center and Disk cache is at 47% Disk buffers at 24% and Application Data is at 25%, so it could be the fact that i am using ntfs mounts?
[03:20] <Selrach> I wish I could get Ubuntu working...
[03:20] <leinuzMei> Need help? during Update it showed an error in installing? ::E: /var/cache/apt/archives/libkrb53_1.4.4-5ubuntu3.1_i386.deb: failed in buffer_read(fd)
[03:20] <Selrach> I'm currently running mandriva...
[03:20] <Drew> my ubuntu eats my partition space up hard core
[03:20] <cookie> hello, anyone knows how can I view .ppt under xubuntu?
[03:20] <advancedsimplici> Selrach: What's going wrong with ubuntu?
[03:20] <johndoc> I upgraded my feisty to the 2.6.22 kernel using the gutsy repositories (sp?) so I could get my sound working on my toshiba laptop and now it locks up and i'm not real sure what's causing it
[03:20] <bruenig> cookie, openoffice
[03:20] <Drew> I have 500 mb free and in 5 min of browsing the web its full
[03:20] <mongolai> has anyone else here had problems with Audacity capturing audio through the line-in input?
[03:20] <kitche> johndoc: umm well that is the bad thing to do anyways lol
[03:21] <calc> johndoc: oh thats weird, btw which Realtek sound codec do you have?
[03:21] <jrib> cookie: openoffice Presentation can view them
[03:21] <johndoc> i don't know off the top of my head
[03:21] <logan> Is there any hope in getting a ATI USB ALL IN WONDER TV CAPTURE device working in linux?
[03:21] <calc> johndoc: it might not even work with the new kernel regardless
[03:21] <johndoc> I don't have the lappy with me right now
[03:21] <calc> johndoc: my toshiba laptop has alc268 and i don't think the new kernel works with it either
[03:21] <cookie> jrib, is there any alternative since openoffice is a little bit big
[03:21] <johndoc> it seems to be locking up as if the process were overloaded
[03:21] <jrib> cookie: I don't know of one
[03:21] <johndoc> process=processor
[03:22] <Selrach> i wonder if my ECS motherboard is to blame for ubuntu not working
[03:22] <johndoc> the sound works now since the update
[03:22] <Drew> selrach did you even check to see if your hardware is compatible
[03:22] <calc> Selrach: in general ACPI issues are motherboard issues, not kernel issues, its just that the kernel people keep adding hacks to work around bad motherboards
[03:22] <asdf> Does anyone know of a way to capture only a portion of the screen like in Mac OS X?
[03:22] <johndoc> it just locks up a lot and i can't even get to console
[03:22] <Selrach> how do I check that?
[03:22] <T-Connection> I like the Hufo's Tunnel screen saver
[03:23] <Ecnerifed_> does oneone think that they might be able to help me with a very simple cacti setup?
[03:23] <johndoc> i know calc, it just seemed to be the quickest way to get my sound working...stupid move on my part, but it was so easy i hate to go back
[03:23] <Selrach> I guess I just assumed it would work since other distros worked on this hardware
[03:23] <calc> Selrach: so yes its 99% certain its your motherboard that has a bad acpi bios that is causing it not to work, though if other dists like Debian do work there is probably some code the ubuntu people can use to make it work too
[03:23] <johndoc> it was a pain trying to get it working before the kernel upgrade
[03:23] <jrib> Selrach: what exactly doesn't work, what happens
[03:23] <Selrach> I drop to command line login when I try to boot ubuntu
[03:23] <Selrach> its ACPI I believe
[03:23] <eyemean> hi any1 know how i can get ubuntu to recognise my mic and webcam pls?
[03:23] <Selrach> meh
[03:23] <ztomic> leinuzMei: are you using kerberos? Have you googled the problem?
[03:23] <Selrach> problem is
[03:24] <bruenig> !webcam | eyemean
[03:24] <ubotu> eyemean: Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras
[03:24] <Selrach> if I disable ACPI... It doesnt even get to login
[03:24] <T-Connection> Lattice is kind of cool too.
[03:24] <jrib> Selrach: seriously, please stop pressing enter to break up your sentences.  Use a '.' instead
[03:24] <eyemean> thank you for link
[03:24] <Lord_Drachenblut> sup johndoc
[03:24] <Selrach> alright...
[03:24] <calc> Selrach: best bet is to first make sure you update your hardware to the latest bios available on their website
[03:24] <johndoc> Hey Lord_Drachenblut
[03:24] <leinuzMei> Yes about that not yet...
[03:24] <Selrach> do you want my hardware specs? It might help resolve this
[03:25] <pHro-> <3 porn
[03:25] <ztomic> Whay am I getting all the tough problems? Does anyone use Kerberos?
[03:25] <ztomic> whay=why
[03:25] <calc> Selrach: sure thats fine
[03:25] <asdf> Does anyone know of a way to screencapture only a section of the screen like in Mac OS X?
[03:25] <calc> Selrach: just need the exact motherboard model number
[03:25] <calc> Selrach: oh yea and the brand
[03:25] <javb> hi people. Something weird, firefox become slow when opening the download window at the time a new download will start
[03:25] <javb> any ideas?

[03:25] <Drew> its firefox
[03:25] <Selrach> any other specs you need?
[03:25] <calc> Selrach: thats all
[03:25] <mathieu2> anyone know how i would get imagemagick's posterize option to work the same way as the gimp ?

[03:27] <calc> Selrach: you sure its Lite Extreme, not one or the other?
[03:27] <T-Connection> XD
[03:27] <Drew> my first computer was a black acer on 95 I was 5
[03:27] <Selrach> yea, I kept my motherboard box
[03:27] <Selrach> I assembled this PC from scratch
[03:27] <Selrach> oops...
[03:27] <Selrach> X_X
[03:27] <calc> Selrach: ah its the same bios regardless of Lite or Extreme (according to their website)

[03:28] <logan> Has anyone here ever used GATOS?
[03:28] <gatman> hello guys
[03:28] <logan> I installed it but I don't know where to go to access it
[03:28] <Selrach> do you think I need to flash my BIOS?
[03:28] <gatman> I need some advice (not a technicall questioN)
[03:28] <Lord_Drachenblut> logan: never heard of it
[03:28] <calc> Selrach: hmm oops no i am wrong its not the same, was looking at the wrong box
[03:29] <logan> It allows you to use ATI All-In-Wonder capture cards on linux
[03:29] <gatman> what is the main differnece between ubuntu server edition and desktop edition?
[03:29] <calc> Selrach: you will need to find out what your current bios revision is when your system posts to figure out which one you have
[03:29] <Selrach> ones for server and ones for client?
[03:29] <ztomic> leinuzMei: I don't use Kerberos. Sorry.
[03:29] <kitche> gatman: one installs cli and kernel is server based and the other is gui and desktop geared
[03:29] <Selrach> where can I find this when I login to BIOS?
[03:29] <leinuzMei> Ok
[03:30] <gatman> kitche, so the server edition has no gui, x, what so ever?

[03:30] <gatman> because the truth is, I wanna have a server, but at the same time, use the distro as a desktop OS.
[03:31] <calc> Selrach: its during post there should be a revision on the screen when it posts and/or a date on the screen somewhere that should match the date of the bios available on the site
[03:31] <gatman> the server edition comes with LAMP, so I dunno...
[03:31] <ztomic> Eh! java wont install on wine. that sux!
[03:31] <gatman> kitche...
[03:32] <Selrach> none of them mention ACPI changes
[03:32] <Selrach> hrm
[03:32] <calc> Selrach: depending on how old your bios is on your board it could be multiple revisions old
[03:32] <jesusphreak> so I know it is preferable to use aptitude when possible, but what should one do about SVN?
[03:32] <advancedsimplici> clear
[03:32] <colbert> I am doing sudo apt-get update and it keeps saying: "sudo: timestamp too far in the future: Jul 26 11:08:20 2007"
[03:32] <calc> Selrach: so old that you can't see all the changes on their site
[03:32] <Selrach> i got it last year
[03:32] <Selrach> hrm
[03:32] <Pici> colbert: Try sudo -k or if that doesnt work sudo -K
[03:32] <calc> Selrach: i've bought hardware before that had 1.5 year old bios before
[03:32] <gatman> why isn't anyone talking to me :( ?
[03:32] <jrib> jesusphreak: what do you mean?  what are you trying to do?
[03:33] <calc> Selrach: depends on how long it has sat in the market
[03:33] <colbert> Pici: same thing
[03:33] <gatman> should I go to another channel?
[03:33] <spasticteapot> gatman: chill out.
[03:33] <spasticteapot> It can take a while.
[03:33] <Selrach> so how do I check my current motherboard BIOS?
[03:33] <blackace11> can someone help me configure joy2key?
[03:33] <spasticteapot> gatman: What's the problem?
[03:33] <gatman> ok..
[03:33] <Selrach> when i go into config?
[03:33] <gatman> it's a bit crowded, can I msg you?
[03:33] <Pici> colbert: sudo -k with no other arguments?
[03:33] <colbert> Pici: yes
[03:33] <Selrach> I don't want to screw up my motherboard by flashing it badly :|
[03:33] <Pici> colbert: and sudo -K ?
[03:34] <mynimo> hi
[03:34] <colbert> Pici: yes same
[03:34] <blackace11> can someone help me configure joy2key?
[03:34] <kitche> gatman: install the desktop edition and install the server stuff that you want
[03:34] <Ecnerifed_> Ive installed cacti and i just wanna use it to monitor localhost, but its not showing any graphs :S anyone help pleez?
[03:34] <Pici> colbert:
[03:34] <gatman> kitche, I find that a pain, can't I do the opposite?
[03:34] <Pici> colbert: er, Your time is really set 1 month in advance?
[03:34] <blackace11> can someone help me configure joy2key?
[03:34] <kitche> gatman: yes
[03:34] <ztomic> Selrach: just flash that fat B@$^ard.
[03:34] <mynimo> im currently installing winxp in my ubuntu box using virtualbox, how can i move out my keyboard and mouse to my ubuntu box?
[03:34] <jesusphreak> anyone? Is there a 'right' way to download source (from svn, cvs, whatever)?
[03:35] <gatman> kitche, server edition comes prepaired with LAMP, but is the desktop utilties scarce?
[03:35] <mynimo> i can see my mouse and keyboard is locked in my virtualbox
[03:35] <blackace11> can someone help me configure joy2key?
[03:35] <colbert> Pici: No I was checking calendar in the ADministration> Time & Date yesterday, accidentally left it at July 25.. I changed it back this morning
[03:35] <gatman> s/is/are/
[03:35] <kitche> gatman: they use the same repos so you can get a desktop real easy
[03:35] <jrib> jesusphreak: if you're just downloading, just use the tools to download it: svn co, etc...
[03:35] <gatman> kitche, agian, does it come with X?
[03:36] <blackace11> can someone help me configure joy2key?
[03:36] <ztomic> jesusphreak: hard in windows, easy in linux.
[03:36] <kitche> gatman: server does not
[03:36] <jrib> blackace11: wait about 20 minutes before repeating please
[03:36] <ztomic> follow the faq
[03:36] <blackace11> okk
[03:36] <kitche> gatman: but you can install it with ubuntu-desktop package
[03:36] <gatman> kitche, damn...
[03:36] <colbert> Pici: i fixed it
[03:36] <Pici> colbert: What did you do?
[03:36] <gatman> yeah, I guess I'll INSTALL the desktop one then...
[03:36] <colbert> Pici: I had to change date back to july 26, then sudo -K, then go back and change date to today
[03:37] <gatman> via WUBI
[03:37] <Pici> colbert: Odd :/
[03:37] <colbert> Pici: hehe, believe it's a security measure. Learn something new everyday :)
[03:37] <gregorygreg> hello

[03:38] <jrib> blackace11: it does
[03:38] <blackace11> site?
[03:38] <jrib> !fixres > blackace11 (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:38] <gregorygreg> can someone help me out with suspend mode?
[03:38] <mynimo> anyone using virtualbox in ubuntu?
[03:38] <gregorygreg> on fiesty?
[03:38] <jrib> !anyone | mynimo
[03:38] <ubotu> mynimo: 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?
[03:38] <gregorygreg> okay sure
[03:38] <blackace11> ty
[03:39] <gregorygreg> I need to set my alsadriver to unload/reload when I enter/exit suspend mode
[03:39] <ztomic> gregorygreg: ask and ye shall receive.
[03:39] <gregorygreg> because my sound is distorted when I come out of suspend mode
[03:39] <mynimo> pls help me how to get my keyboard and mouse to my host or orig os and not inside the virtualbox window? anyon pls?
[03:39] <mynimo> what should i click?
[03:39] <jrib> mynimo: ctrl-alt  gets you out I think
[03:39] <Jordan_U> mynimo, In vmware it's ctrl+alt
[03:39] <gatman> will ubuntu mount my ntfs hdds automaticaly?
[03:39] <gregorygreg> it did for me gatman
[03:40] <Jordan_U> !ntfs-3g | gatman
[03:40] <ubotu> gatman: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[03:40] <T-Connection> Does ubuntu have XFree86?
[03:40] <eyemean> tried easywebcam but does not see my webcam and help part is in french
[03:40] <gatman> I said automaticaly
[03:40] <jrib> T-Connection: ubuntu uses Xorg...
[03:40] <eyemean> canany1 pls help
[03:40] <T-Connection> Ok
[03:40] <kitche> mynimo: right ctrl
[03:40] <gregorygreg> ztomic did you see my question?
[03:40] <ztomic> yup
[03:40] <gregorygreg> any idea or are you checkin it out on the internat
[03:40] <T-Connection> Cool updates.
[03:41] <kitche> T-Connection:  XFree86 is barely used anymore think it might still be used with Unix
[03:41] <Jordan_U> gatman, It will from the LiveCD, but I don't think that installing one package from synaptic is very "manual"
[03:41] <mynimo> right ctrl?
[03:41] <mynimo> right cursor then ctrl?
[03:41] <kitche> mynimo: right ctrl
[03:41] <gatman> Jordan_U, i'm gonna get ubuntu from wubi
[03:41] <ztomic> gregorygreg: which card? Mine works fine. I don't have an answer... gosh! i hate that. 2nd time in a row.
[03:41] <kitche> mynimo: you should have two ctrl's one of the left one on the right
[03:41] <gregorygreg> here this is what someone told me to do
[03:41] <gregorygreg> added snd-hda-intel to my modules to unload on suspend + removed volume control.
[03:42] <gregorygreg> he said it worked for him, only I am not sure what config file I would have to edit
[03:42] <Jordan_U> gatman, Then it has to have NTFS support, but remember that wubi is still BETA
[03:42] <gregorygreg> (I have an intel card)
[03:42] <rcbaxter_> I'm having a terrible time trying to remove a packge... Anyone ever get this: subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 127
[03:42] <gatman> Jordan_U, it's just a booter man...
[03:42] <mynimo> my toshiba laptop has only left ctrl key in my keyboard :((
[03:42] <mynimo> no right ctrl key of my keyboard
[03:43] <osxdude|TX> !wubi
[03:43] <ubotu> wubi is an unofficial Ubuntu installer for Windows users - more info is at http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[03:43] <kitche> mynimo: if you look at the bottom right corner of virtualbox it tells you what key to press
[03:43] <gregorygreg> ztomic: launchpad link is here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/100114
[03:43] <Ecnerifed_> Ive installed cacti and i just wanna use it to monitor localhost, but its not showing any graphs :S anyone help pleez?
[03:43] <newtubuntu> when we install a VM running XP (using VMWare or VirtualBox), does the required diskspace of the VM go on the / or /home directory ?
[03:43] <Ecnerifed_> does oneone think that they might be able to help me with a very simple cacti setup?
[03:43] <Tom47> trying to complete tomcat installation and cannot configure
[03:43] <mynimo> yes i tried that right ctrl, but i dont have right ctrl key :(
[03:44] <Jordan_U> gatman, No, it is Ubuntu running from an image file on an NTFS partition using a hacked together grub running from ntldr...
[03:44] <Rileks> hello all
[03:44] <nikosapi> hello, how can I find out what kind of support packages were compiled with? (eg. mmx, O2, O3, arch, etc..)
[03:44] <Tom47> trying to complete tomcat installation and cannot configure APR support
[03:44] <jrib> newtubuntu: it goes where you put the image
[03:44] <gatman> Jordan_U, aka; booter.
[03:45] <Rileks> hello,how can i get a shell account
[03:45] <jrib> !offtopic > Rileks (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:45] <ztomic> gregorygreg: it looks like a bug... I'm not surprised it's a Sony product. Is yours?
[03:45] <jrib> nikosapi: you could 'apt-get source PACKAGE' and the read debian/rules.  Don't know of an easier way
[03:45] <savetheWorld> Rileks: on what machine? your own?
[03:45] <gregorygreg> haha yeah I got a sony FE
[03:45] <nikosapi> jrib: thanks
[03:45] <gregorygreg> sony products are awful
[03:45] <newtubuntu> jrib: I haven't built my system yet (I'm here from Vista yuck). I will setup my 320Gb hd with Ubuntu, but I want to make sure I allocate my space properly... So should VMs be built on / or /home ?
[03:46] <jrib> nikosapi: I'm guessing there is probably some policy that you could refer to
[03:46] <sycofant> The graphical install (from the LiveCD's X desktop) on 6.06 is hanging for me - is there a better way for be to install straight from the GRUB prompt?
[03:46] <gregorygreg> does that mean there is no fix?
[03:46] <jrib> newtubuntu: I keep them in my HOME
[03:46] <Jordan_U> newtubuntu, I would put them on /home if it is a separate partition, that way you can keep / smaller
[03:47] <ztomic> gregorygreg: Oh my god!
[03:47] <newtubuntu> I'm planning to use 200/320Gb for a shared FAT32 partition, then the remaining 120Gb is for Ubuntu which will run 1 virtual machine of... say 10Gb max (enough!)
[03:47] <newtubuntu> how should I split my diskspace between / and /home ?
[03:47] <gregorygreg> whatchu mean oh my god? ha
[03:47] <aliask> I'm having major problems with mounting a network drive at boot. It's been working fine for nearly 4 months, and now won't work at all. I can make a new local folder and manually mount to that, but it's hardly ideal.
[03:48] <gatman> you know, ubuntu is the only distro that I knew how to install beryl on.
[03:48] <Jordan_U> newtubuntu, You can read and write to ext3 from windows, I would just make a separate /home and keep your windows data files there too, saves space
[03:48] <gatman> probably the most user friendly...
[03:48] <newtubuntu> if I plan using 120Gb for Ubuntu, I should I split it between / and /home ?
[03:48] <ztomic> gregorygreg: why people continue to buy Sony stuff is beyond my comprehension. I refuse to work on your problem.
[03:48] <gregorygreg> alright well different question then
[03:48] <ztomic> hehe
[03:48] <spasticteapot> gregorygreg: What's wrong with your Sony crap?
[03:48] <gregorygreg> how can I add a module to unload on suspend?
[03:48] <sycofant> Any hints - text based install from 6.06 Live CD?
[03:48] <Music_Shuffle> newtubuntu, how about....30/90 for / and /home?
[03:48] <spasticteapot> No, really...it's almost all junk.
[03:49] <spasticteapot> gregorygreg: Seriously...what's the issue?
[03:49] <Jordan_U> sycofant, You need a separate CD to do text based install
[03:49] <gregorygreg> ok well my sound is seriously distorted when I come out of suspend mode
[03:49] <jrib> sycofant: use the alternate cd if you need a text based install
[03:49] <Selrach> calc, I found my motherboard manual, and on the cover it says KN1 Lite Extreme...
[03:49] <javb> any ideas on how to make pdf files from open office or any app in ubuntu with security options ?
[03:49] <newtubuntu> Jordan_U: last night I was strongly recommended to build a FAT32 partition for sharing between XP and Linux
[03:49] <spasticteapot> gregorygreg: No idea, sorry.
[03:49] <osxdude|TX> aliask: Did you check the connection?
[03:49] <sycofant> More download :(
[03:49] <spasticteapot> Restart ALSA?
[03:49] <spasticteapot> Switch sound driver maybe/
[03:49] <spasticteapot> ?
[03:49] <ztomic> spasticteapot: buy sony. go ahead. buy some more sony crap.
[03:49] <sycofant> The text-based installer is not available on the LiveCD at all?
[03:50] <aliask> osxdude|TX: Yes, like I said, I can mount it manually - it just won't do it from fstab.
[03:50] <gregorygreg> hey guys come on
[03:50] <gatman> brb, installing ubuntu :)
[03:50] <Jordan_U> newtubuntu, Many people do that, I just don't see the point when you can read and write to ext3 from windows, and same with NTFS from Linux
[03:50] <spasticteapot> ztomic: I don't touch the stuff.
[03:50] <aliask> Also, it halts booting, and i need to press control alt delete to get ubuntu to even boot at all.
[03:50] <spasticteapot> ztomic: I'm an IBM fan.
[03:50] <PurpZeY> gregorygreg: I haven't really been following, but I can tell you that a lot of people have problems with suspend
[03:50] <spasticteapot> For consumer electronics, I'll build my own.
[03:50] <Jordan_U> newtubuntu, But you can't ( or rather shouldn't ) put your /home on NTFS, which is why I would use ext3
[03:51] <newtubuntu> Jordan_U: So my /home will be accessible from an XP virtual machine ?
[03:51] <someone2005> I've got evolution installed and seems my mails going into the outbox instead of the sent folder...Any Ideas ?
[03:51] <tritium> someone2005: check the account settings
[03:51] <Jordan_U> newtubuntu, Oh, I thought you were doing a dual boot
[03:51] <spasticteapot> gregorygreg: Switch audio drivers.
[03:51] <gregorygreg> okay one more time.  does anyone know how I can add my snd-hda-intel driver to the list of modules to unload on suspend?
[03:51] <someone2005> There fine
[03:51] <gregorygreg> alright I'll try that and see if it works
[03:51] <spasticteapot> You should be able to choose ALSA or OSS. If you're using one, use the other.
[03:51] <tritium> someone2005: you mean "they're" fine?
[03:52] <T-Connection> I'm doing this wrong? dpkg -i fglrx-kernel-source_8.38.6-1_i386.deb xorg-driver-fglrx_8.38.6-1_i386.deb
[03:52] <newtubuntu> Jordan_U: if I can avoid the dual boot with VirtualBox or VMWare, I WILL.
[03:52] <someone2005> yup...
[03:52] <imbecile> hey guys, how can i turn a bin/cue vcd back to an mpeg?
[03:52] <eyemean> tried easycam but didnt work for me any other suggestions pls?
[03:52] <newtubuntu> need to have my files accessible from the VM and Linux
[03:53] <gregorygreg> I don't have to restart in order for the switch to take effect?
[03:53] <T-Connection> This way? dpkg -i <fglrx-kernel-source_8.38.6-1_i386.deb> <xorg-driver-fglrx_8.38.6-1_i386.deb>
[03:53] <spasticteapot> gregorygreg: Nope.
[03:53] <newtubuntu> OK, so back to a 120Gb split, how should I allocate it between / and /home ?
[03:53] <newtubuntu> more space in root or more in home ?
[03:53] <Jordan_U> T-Connection, Why not use Restricted manager
[03:53] <tritium> newtubuntu: that's up to you
[03:54] <ztomic> spasticteapot: good to hear. sorry I misread your question up there.
[03:54] <T-Connection> I done that.
[03:54] <rcbaxter_> subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 127
[03:54] <ztomic> had to P folks
[03:54] <Jordan_U> T-Connection, So what are you trying to do now?
[03:54] <tritium> !offtopic > ztomic (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:54] <chadeldridge> can anyone recomend a FTP client for gnome ?
[03:54] <tritium> chadeldridge: gftp
[03:54] <newtubuntu> tritium: I just don't know 'where space goes' when using Linux. SHall I plan for lots of room for apps in root, or lots of room for ?? in /home ?
[03:54] <T-Connection> I trying to get an update drivers.
[03:54] <newtubuntu> I'll have my files on a 200GB FAT32 share
[03:54] <Tom47> newtubuntu just looking over yr shoulder here .... using fat32 is the conservative route .... some aspects of ntfs in linux and ext2/3 in windows are considered by some to still be in (late) beta
[03:55] <chadeldridge> i shall try it .. thanks
[03:55] <tritium> newtubuntu: it really depends on your needs.  The base install shouldn't take up more than 2-3 GB.  How much you put in /home depends on you, really.
[03:55] <gregorygreg> piece of shit still has the same problem
[03:55] <gregorygreg> I hate this computer
[03:55] <Jordan_U> !ohmy | gregorygreg
[03:55] <ubotu> gregorygreg: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[03:55] <gregorygreg> sorry
[03:55] <newtubuntu> tritium:  /home is for personal files only ? all apps go in / is that right ?
[03:55] <nephish> ok, that worked, thanks, gents
[03:56] <tritium> newtubuntu: essentially
[03:56] <nephish> kismet, thanks
[03:56] <newtubuntu> thank you all  brb, going to CLEAN SLATE my brand new Dell and install Ubuntu on it... (full disk)
[03:56] <T-Connection> I'm going now. Bye. I will be back tomorrow
[03:56] <newtubuntu> Ubuntu, please be with me!
[03:57] <ztomic> Ive been asked to leave folks. Sorry but my expertise is needed elsewhere because it is not recognized in this channel. Later folks.
[03:58] <hellpmee> ok im here
[03:58] <hellpmee> good grief
[03:59] <osxdude|TX> yay! it's hellpmee!

[03:59] <osxdude|TX> did you see my message?
[04:00] <hellpmee> my first time to use ubuntu desktop.damn im beginning to fall inlove very fast in loading unloading unlike last few years
[04:00] <hellpmee> yes osxdude|TX
[04:00] <kristi> I have a problem with k3b... trying to burn a video DVD gives an error saying that not all the necessary video files are on the disc.  Am I missing something?
[04:01] <osxdude|TX> are they not DVD files?
[04:01] <kristi> osxdude|TX: It's a .MPEG file that I want to watch on my dvd player.
[04:01] <hellpmee> btw is there a way to load my usb mouse when the dekstop xwindow is already loaded?
[04:02] <X_100_Destino_X> alguem ai sabe algum canal de java em pt?
[04:02] <gregorygreg> how do I control which modules are unloaded on suspend?
[04:02] <hellpmee> if i plugged my usb mouse after booting,it wont work,how do i fix this?unlike winxp when you plug usb mouse it will always run
[04:02] <kristi> !ps | X_100_Destino_X
[04:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ps - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:03] <osxdude|TX> I think you can only burn DVD Video files kristi
[04:03] <kristi> osxdude|TX: How do I convert it to "DVD video"?
[04:04] <osxdude|TX> idk
[04:04] <hellpmee> is pidgin supported in apt-get?
[04:04] <tritium> hellpmee: not until the next release (gutsy)
[04:04] <osxdude|TX> no
[04:04] <hellpmee> oh ok
[04:04] <tritium> gregorygreg: see /etc/default/acpi-support
[04:04] <Pici> hellpmee: Thats in October if all goes as planned.
[04:05] <hellpmee> is there an application in ubuntu that can chat yahoo mesgr with mic and webcam?
[04:05] <hellpmee> Pici: cool
[04:05] <tritium> gregorygreg: add the modules names in between the quotes on the line: MODULES=""
[04:05] <osxdude|TX> will the upgrade be smooth?
[04:05] <kristi> hellpmee: Kopete and Gaim both support webcams, I think.
[04:06] <twocarlo> gaim doesnt
[04:06] <dusk> why is firefox GTK different then the rest of my GTK apps?
[04:06] <hellpmee> are you sure gaim supports webcam kristi?
[04:06] <tritium> hellpmee: no, not yet
[04:06] <gregorovius> does anyone know of a good, simple traffic shaping script? I just need something that lets me prioritize some ports, but everything seems too complicated
[04:06] <hellpmee> oh ok
[04:06] <kitche> dusk: what do you mean?
[04:06] <hellpmee> what about winscp for ubuntu desktop xwindow? what should i use?
[04:06] <Pelo> osxdude|TX,  if you want a smooth upgrade just mount your /home to a seperate partition and reinstall the os from scratch,  doesn'T get smoother then that
[04:06] <jrib> hellpmee: you can use nautilus
[04:07] <gregorovius> I tried wondershaper but it puts Voip at the same priority than bittorrent
[04:07] <dusk> kitche: Im using fluxbox, I set a GTK with gtk-theme-switch, but firefox doesnt wnat to play along
[04:07] <kristi> hellpmee: If I was sure, I wouldn't have said "I think" ;)
[04:07] <osxdude|TX> i mean to Gusty from Feisey
[04:07] <kitche> dusk: firefox uses it's own theme setup
[04:07] <hellpmee> jrib, is nautilus by deafult installed in ubuntu 7.04?
[04:07] <gregorygreg> thanks
[04:07] <osxdude|TX> thanks
[04:07] <tritium> hellpmee: yes
[04:07] <jrib> hellpmee: yeah, it's name of the file manager
[04:07] <kristi> Pelo: Took me forever before I realized the wisdom in having a separate /home partition.  It's amazing how much trouble that has saved me.
[04:07] <kitche> hellpmee: if you use gnome of course
[04:07] <dusk> kitche: well, yea, but you can set it to use the GTK theme, I just forget how
[04:08] <kitche> dusk: though it's configuration
[04:08] <burnin> hi
[04:08] <kristi> I have a problem with k3b... trying to burn a video DVD gives an error saying that not all the necessary video files are on the disc.  Am I missing something?
[04:08] <dusk> kitche: which config?
[04:08] <dusk> kitche: it's done through .gtkrc.mine
[04:08] <Pelo> kristi,  how did you make the dvd files ?
[04:08] <burnin> I'm trying to do a network install on a via epia motherboard using a pxe netboot. It pxe boots fine, I go through the initial install screens and it ends with "No kernel modules were found."
[04:09] <burnin> I've tried a couple of mirrors but no luck.
[04:09] <burnin> is there something about the C3 processor on the via epia board that is not supported?
[04:09] <kristi> Pelo: I didn't make it... it's a standard .AVI file.

[04:09] <burnin> it should just be an i386
[04:09] <asdf> Does anyone know of a way to screencapture only a section of the screen like in Mac OS X?

[04:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about firefox gtk - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:09] <hellpmee> where can i click nautilus? im trying to find it
[04:09] <Pelo> kristi, use devede works very nicely
[04:09] <kitche> dusk: seems like you need a .gtkrc file and have firefox on default theme
[04:10] <qnyc> hellpmee, places -> home folder, it's the file browser
[04:10] <dusk> dusk: you dont have the touch firefox's theme
[04:10] <kristi> !devede
[04:10] <Pelo> kristi,  it's in the repos
[04:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about devede - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[04:15] <zabin> tritium: i do now know the service name and i do know how to stop things with /etc/init.d/*. any idea what it could be its not under anything starting with V
[04:15] <hellpmee> wow this is cool
[04:15] <tritium> zabin: which package did you install?

[04:16] <imbecile> please someone
[04:16] <kitche> dusk: the ubuntu forums have many things I just did a google search on firefox and gtk2 themes
[04:16] <c_lisp> thanks
[04:16] <Wolfwalker> Aarrrgh!
[04:16] <gdb> zabin: Which vnc server package do you have installed?
[04:16] <Pelo> cens0r,  are you sure  /Debian/web is the correct devtree for  that folder ?
[04:17] <Wolfwalker> Is it impossible to run 3D graphic games in Ubuntu with an ATI Radeon Xpress 200 card?
[04:17] <zabin> tritium maybe let me explain some more sorry. at work i cant just vnc to my desktop at home. so to do this i have to tunnel a few ports. i can vnc out on a windows machine but now a linux machine i think the problem is that i am tring to connect to localhost:5900. but my linux machine thinks im trying to connect to its self which im not.
[04:17] <cens0r> yes, it stopped working after i had it mounted and a power outage caused a reboot with files open
[04:17] <cens0r> i get a response like this back now:
[04:17] <Pelo> imbecile, xine  but if it is a kvcd the support isnt' great in linux
[04:17] <cens0r> Could not resolve mount point /mnt/web
[04:17] <imbecile> Pelo,  :( it is a kvcd
[04:17] <cens0r> i've tried removing the web directory, but it says the resource is busy
[04:17] <Jordan_U> Wolfwalker, What shows up when you try the restricted driver manager
[04:18] <newbuntu> hi all hi Pelo de Drummondville
[04:18] <Pelo> cens0r,  make sure there is still a mount point, and check the permissions
[04:18] <Pelo> hey newbuntu
[04:18] <tritium> zabin: so why are you trying to stop the service?
[04:18] <Pelo> imbecile,  just watch it on your tv
[04:18] <Pelo> imbecile,  you do know that a bin/cue is a cd image right ?
[04:18] <zabin> im thinking because its tring to connect to localhost which is being tunneled though but it is trying to connect to its self.
[04:18] <newbuntu> I'm on my 32bits CD-ROM right now, starting a clean install of Feisty
[04:19] <Jordan_U> Wolfwalker, System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager
[04:19] <MrOtacon> whats the best download manager (like flashget) to use in ubuntu? i want to queue up files, have 40 to get, and pref. be able to import from a text file
[04:19] <gdb> zabin: Which vnc server package do you have installed?
[04:19] <Wolfwalker> |Jordan_U:| where is the restricted driver manager?
[04:19] <Pelo> newbuntu, ;-)
[04:19] <n2diy> How can I get Nautilus to _not_ abbreviate file sizes?
[04:19] <newbuntu> would need some handholding if anyone is available
[04:19] <cens0r> Pelo, i can't even do a ls -l on the directory
[04:19] <de0xyrib0se> anyone here good with rsync? i'm trying to do a hard link backup schema and what i dont get from all these examples is how in the world would it actually keep versions of file changes since hard links are always pointing to the same file
[04:19] <gdb> zabin: I'm asking because you can you "dpkg -l package_name" and look for some sort of control utility for it.
[04:19] <imbecile> Pelo,  unfortunately i cant burn cd or dvd it fails every time i nobody has let me know why.. yes i know its an image
[04:19] <zabin> gdb: now do i find out. i think just vnc
[04:19] <ali1234> MrOtacon: wget (it has no gui but it is simple and fast)
[04:19] <Pelo> cens0r,   delete the mount point,  and make a new one
[04:19] <gdb> er dpkg -L
[04:19] <varun0> does anyone know what the difference between the "generic" kernel and the "kernel with ubuntu patches" is?
[04:19] <MrOtacon> ali1234: can it import links from a file?
[04:19] <Wolfwalker> Never mind, you answered the question before I asked it
[04:19] <gdb> anyway, ah, dpkg -l | grep vnc may help you
[04:19] <Wolfwalker> lol
[04:19] <ali1234> MrOtacon: yes
[04:20] <osxdude|palmTX> Wolfwalker: in the System>Admin  menu
[04:20] <MrOtacon> ali1234: thanx :D
[04:20] <Jordan_U> MrOtacon, It is very powerful
[04:20] <tritium> varun0: the generic kernel has ubuntu patches.  What's generic about it is architecture
[04:20] <MSIGuy> How the heck do I alias ls to ls -alh ?
[04:20] <kitche> varun0: you mean vanilla kernel?
[04:20] <MrOtacon> Jordan_U: thanks
[04:20] <MSIGuy> I just don't see what I'm doing wrong!  lol
[04:20] <Pelo> imbecile,  if I recall correctly  bin/cue is the default image format for NERO, you can probably install nero for linux and try burning with that
[04:20] <zabin> gdb: how do i find out? you said dpkg -L?
[04:20] <MSIGuy> k3b does bin/cue
[04:20] <varun0> kitche: I was just looking at synaptic to download my kernel sources.........and I saw packages with those sorts of descriptions.........
[04:20] <Jordan_U> imbecile, You can convert nero files to iso
[04:20] <tritium> zabin: dpkg -L <packagename>
[04:20] <cens0r> Pelo, "rmdir: web: Device or resource busy"
[04:21] <zabin> how do i know the packagename?
[04:21] <varun0> tritium: so it's not compiled for a specific architecture is what you're saying?
[04:21] <gdb> zabin: "dpkg -l | grep vnc" to look for every installed package that has "vnc" in the name.. then dpkg -L on what you find so you can see what files belong to that specific package
[04:21] <zabin> dpkg -L vncviewer?
[04:21] <gdb> zabin: that's client software, you're asking about a server, yes?
[04:21] <Jordan_U> imbecile, install nrg2iso
[04:21] <MrOtacon> imbecile: get bchunk - then use "bchunk file.cue file.bin file.iso" and it will convert it to iso - then mount with "mount -t iso9660 -o loop file.iso /media/cdrom"
[04:21] <osxdude|palmTX> MSIGuy: Right click, then "Create Link"
[04:21] <ali1234> how can i use WPA wireless networking with a static IP address?
[04:21] <Pelo> cens0r,  comment out the line in fstab,  make a copy of it ,  change the mount point it in ,  make a new mount point , restart
[04:21] <cens0r> k
[04:21] <MSIGuy> osxdude|palmTX: , ?
[04:21] <tritium> varun0: there are not specific i686 vs i386 kernels, as there was little performance difference
[04:21] <imbecile> Pelo,  Jordan_U, iso fails as well
[04:21] <qnyc> MSIGuy, put in your .bash_profile the line, alias ls ="ls -alh"

[04:21] <yuck> im having trouble with my fonts. I downloaded a TTF and copied it to the fonts directory, but GIMP doesn't show it. what should i do?
[04:21] <jettred2001> I would like to make my own room how do I do that
[04:22] <Pelo> imbecile,  what are you usint to burn with ?
[04:22] <Jordan_U> imbecile, Fails in what way?
[04:22] <MSIGuy> qnyc: Ok.
[04:22] <kitche> varun0: it's redunant to even use i386 anymore
[04:22] <osxdude|palmTX> Jordan_U: really? nice.
[04:22] <newbuntu> if I want to erase EVERYTHING on my HD, including Vista and my current boot loader and ALL else, I have to go in manual mode in the partition manager right ?
[04:22] <MSIGuy> where's the .bash_profile?
[04:22] <Jordan_U> jettred2001, /join #wherever
[04:22] <n2diy> jettred2001: /join #your-room
[04:22] <qnyc> MSIGuy, in ~/ (your home directory)
[04:22] <jettred2001> ok
[04:22] <gdb> zabin: ah, interesting, well, then dpkg -L on those to see - i don't see a server in there
[04:22] <MrOtacon> newbuntu: yes - then delete all the partitions, then create a new one - with mount point /
[04:22] <qnyc> MSIGuy, create it if it doesn't exist
[04:22] <zabin> neither do i .
[04:22] <yuck> im having trouble with my fonts. I downloaded a TTF and copied it to the fonts directory, but GIMP doesn't show it. what should i do?
[04:22] <osxdude|palmTX> oh I thought you meant folders...
[04:22] <Pelo> newbuntu, you can start the partition editor from the desktop , delete all the partitions you want and make the new ones you need in there
[04:22] <MSIGuy> Bah, all I needed was the extra quotes
[04:23] <varun0> tritium: that makes sense. so if I want to download my kernel sources, I can just download "linux-generic"?
[04:23] <MSIGuy> I only had single quotes, not doubles...  stupid me.
[04:23] <imbecile> Pelo,  Jordan_U , O am using k3b, gnome baker and brasero.. all fail.. the disk seems like it stops spinning
[04:23] <MSIGuy> Hmm...  now to get the color working.

[04:23] <osxdude|palmTX> I'm a Lunix noob. Okay?
[04:23] <MSIGuy> osxdude|palmTX: Nah, I was thinking about your reply, "What?"  lol
[04:23] <varun0> kitche: how is it redundant? (Just curious)
[04:23] <yuck> im having trouble with my fonts. I downloaded a TTF and copied it to the fonts directory, but GIMP doesn't show it. what should i do?
[04:23] <zabin> gdb: i dont think the service is running because i checked to see what services are running from the service option in gonme. any ideas what coudl be causing the problem?
[04:23] <noway-> I am having problems getting the java JRE working under firefox.  I have the sun-java6-plugin installed, do I have to do something else?
[04:23] <MSIGuy> qnyc: Are the colors decided by the .bash_profile too?
[04:23] <Pelo> imbecile, consider that your burner might be damaged
[04:23] <MrOtacon> me too - 3 days and counting :) - just a fast learner
[04:23] <tritium> varun0: do you truly need the source, or just headers?
[04:23] <kitche> varun0: not really used anymore most go with i486 if they do go i386 way
[04:23] <osxdude|palmTX> It's true!
[04:24] <aliask> Anyone know why mounting a smbfs share from fstab locking up, but doing it manually using mount -t smbfs works fine?
[04:24] <gdb> zabin: I'm afraid I've not caught exactly what the issue is other than you're wanting to shut down a running vnc server process.
[04:24] <jettred2001> is that it

[04:24] <zabin> ok
[04:24] <imbecile> Pelo,  it worked when i had windows
[04:24] <Pelo> imbecile, then go back to windows
[04:25] <osxdude|palmTX> I've been a noob for 2 months.
[04:25] <qnyc> MSIGuy, colors for ls?
[04:25] <varun0> kitche: ah I see what you're saying
[04:25] <newbuntu> OK, my first partition will be / with 60Gb of space, ext3 and marked with mount point: /  that ok ^
[04:25] <imbecile> Pelo,  I dont like windows
[04:25] <gdb> O
[04:25] <n2diy> Pelo: that isn't a very productive answer.
[04:25] <MrOtacon> osxdude|palmTX: you'll get it eventually dude :)
[04:25] <gdb> er I've been a noob since 1994.
[04:25] <qnyc> MSIGuy, you can use .bashrc also, there's already some stuff in there
[04:25] <MSIGuy> That's what I just found out...  lol
[04:25] <yuck> im having trouble with my fonts. I downloaded a TTF and copied it to the fonts directory, but GIMP doesn't show it. what should i do?
[04:25] <dthacker> Is there a way to rerun just the network part of Ubuntu-server setup?
[04:25] <Pelo> n2diy,read the previous ones before commenting on my answers
[04:25] <wintermu1e> I've upgraded to feisty, but now my scsi cdrom (its a laptop) doesn't work
[04:26] <MSIGuy> qnyc: Yeah, I loved how it assigned different things different colors.
[04:26] <zabin> gdb at work i have to tunnel port 5900 and 5901 to vnc in to my computer at home. i can use vnc on a windows machine with just vnc lisner installed on it and it works fine just using the host name as localhost:5900 but when i try to vnc on my linux machine it tries to connect to its self because it thinks thats im referring to it as localhost i believe.
[04:26] <wintermu1e> has anyone had this probme before?
[04:26] <tritium> kitche: there are no i486 or i686 kernels any more
[04:26] <Pelo> yuck,  asking every 2 mintues is not gonna get hyou an answer faster,  if you don'T get help here try the forum
[04:26] <kitche> yuck: did you restart gimp after you put that ttf in the ~/.fonts folder or whereever you put them
[04:26] <kitche> tritium: umm did I say there was in ubuntu
[04:26] <qnyc> MSIGuy, put a line alias ls="ls --color"
[04:26] <einght> hai....................................
[04:26] <kitche> tritium: I was talking about in general
[04:26] <tritium> kitche: this is #ubuntu, after all
[04:26] <gdb> zabin: The Linux system you're trying to connect from is at work?
[04:26] <n2diy> Pelo: oh, is he being a pest? I can't read back throught a couple hours worth of post to get up to speed.
[04:26] <MSIGuy> in the .bashrc or the .bash_profile?
[04:27] <newbuntu> should my /, /home, and swap be primary or logical partitions ?
[04:27] <jettred2001> n2diy: do I have to do anything else when I am in the room
[04:27] <kitche> tritium: and yes there is i386 kernels in ubuntu you just don't notice them :)
[04:27] <zabin> yes
[04:27] <yuck> kitche: i "sudo nautilus fonts://" and moved it from my desktop to the folder. then i restarted gimp. is that right?
[04:27] <imbecile> can anyone tell me how to convert an kvcd (bin/cue) to mpg?
[04:27] <ugarit> my feisty toshiba laptop wifi has been working perfectly and now I get this error:  SIOCGFFLAGS error device not found for my wifi card.  This happened after the last software updates.  How do I fix?
[04:27] <qnyc> MSIGuy, I'm actually not 100% sure .bash_profile is sourced by ubuntu, .bashrc will definitely work
[04:27] <tritium> kitche: I didn't say there weren't.  I said there are not i686 or i486.
[04:27] <zabin> gdb: the port is blocked at work though but port 22 isnt so i can tunnel 5900
[04:27] <gdb> zabin: ie; you have both a windows and linux client at the office, and you're connecting remotely to a linux server at your home?
[04:27] <kitche> yuck: yeah
[04:27] <osxdude|palmTX> heh. pong timeout.
[04:27] <n2diy> jettred2001: no
[04:27] <yuck> kitche: then maybe the font is corrupt?
[04:27] <jettred2001> ok ty
[04:27] <zabin> yes
[04:27] <qnyc> MSIGuy, there should already be some commented out ls aliases in there
[04:28] <zabin> gdb: the windows client is running on vmware.
[04:28] <gdb> zabin: And connecting to port 5900 at localhost on the Linux machine does not work to opena display on your home machine?
[04:28] <zabin> nope.
[04:28] <imbecile> im doomed to not being able to watch this :(
[04:28] <newbuntu> should my /  /home swap and share (FAT32) be logical or primary partitions types ?
[04:28] <Pelo> imbecile,  just find an avi copy
[04:28] <gdb> er here*
[04:29] <Pelo> imbecile,  you can also try uncompressing hte bin file and playing the dat file
[04:29] <duelboot> Need help getting my westinghouse lvm-37w3 to display better than 1280x1024...any help?
[04:29] <imbecile> Pelo,  its a scene release.. no avi made of it yet
[04:29] <ugarit> where is the log of what was updated last?
[04:29] <yuck> kitche: i got it. i copied it into my gnome folder, not my gimp folder
[04:29] <mattycoze> hay anyone know a good BSD chat room?
[04:29] <yuck> kitche: thanks
[04:29] <qnyc> newbuntu, either way
[04:29] <kitche> mattycoze: umm one of the BSD irc rooms
[04:29] <Pelo> duelboot, edit your xorg.conf file and add the extra resolutions you need
[04:29] <newbuntu> all partitions can be either logical or primary ?
[04:30] <mattycoze> kitche linke?
[04:30] <newbuntu> any ones should be a primary ?
[04:30] <duelboot> Pelo, would do, if I knew the syntax
[04:30] <gdb> mattycoze: You'll probably find #freebsd the friendliest.  The other 2 will be more akin to #debian and we all know how great a place that is.
[04:30] <asdf> Does anyone know of a way to screencapture only a section of the screen like in Mac OS X?
[04:30] <qnyc> newbuntu, you can only have 4 primary, so if you need more, one primary will be extended and contain all the logical partitions
[04:30] <kitche> mattycoze: ##freebsd #openbsd or #netbsd
[04:30] <zabin> duelboot: dpkg reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:30] <kitche> mattycoze: you have to be registered and identified to join the freebsd one
[04:30] <mattycoze> lol they a bit hostie?
[04:30] <Pelo> newbuntu,  you are limited to 4 primary partition as I recall  the rest have to be logical
[04:30] <duelboot> thx zabin will try now
[04:30] <mattycoze> *hostile
[04:31] <newbuntu> what's a 'primary' get vs. a logical ?
[04:31] <gdb> FreeBSD tends to attact a more accepting crowd than NetBSD or OpenBSD.  I used to be NetBSD user and the community is very Debian-like in mindset.
[04:31] <Pelo> duelboot,   gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf   about half way down
[04:31] <tony_00021> gdb, what does that mindset entail?
[04:31] <ugarit> where is the log of what was updated last?
[04:31] <zabin> duelboot: sorry its "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg"
[04:31] <ugarit> my feisty toshiba laptop wifi has been working perfectly and now I get this error:  SIOCGFFLAGS error device not found for my wifi card.  This happened after the last software updates.  How do I fix?
[04:31] <qnyc> newbuntu, nothing anymore, it's a historical distinction, originally there was only primary, limited to 4
[04:31] <gdb> tony_00021: Generally being an ass on IRC and on mailing lists.
[04:31] <mattycoze> oh okay, i'm trying to figure out what all the hype about bsd is
[04:32] <tritium> mattycoze: hype?
[04:32] <n2diy> ugarit: /var/logs
[04:32] <tony_00021> u mean like ubuntu ;)
[04:32] <Ubuntu-Craft> yes We like ubuntu
[04:32] <MrOtacon> anyway to export a cookie from firefox?
[04:32] <Pelo> ugarit,  perform the wifi installation sequence again
[04:32] <mattycoze> lol nothing like ubuntu
[04:32] <gdb> Actually, I've found the Ubuntu community to be by far the friendiest public community I've had the pleasure to be a part of.
[04:32] <ali1234> if i try to manually set up my wireless connection i only get the option of using WEP encryption. but if i click on the network, it is detected as WPA properly, however there is no way to enter a static IP. how can i have a static IP on a WPA network, without resorting to 'sudo killall dhclient' and reconfiguring manually every time I reboot?
[04:32] <tritium> tony_00021: no, not at all
[04:32] <MSIGuy> qnyc: Thanks for the help.
[04:32] <Pelo> MrOtacon, try asking in #firefox
[04:32] <duelboot> zabin, then restart gdm?
[04:33] <ugarit> Pelo: how do I perform the wifi installation sequence again?
[04:33] <qnyc> MSIGuy, you're welcome
[04:33] <MrOtacon> Pelo: :) - ok, thanks
[04:33] <MSIGuy> I'm going to read up a little more on the bash files, see what should go where, what the difference is.
[04:33] <Pelo> !wifi | ugarit
[04:33] <ztomic> gdb: much more friendly than #debian, huh?
[04:33] <ubotu> ugarit: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:33] <duelboot> zabin?
[04:33] <MSIGuy> ztomic: you want friendly, go to #slackware...  lol
[04:33] <Pelo> gbd if you're gonna be like that we're not gonna help you anymore
[04:33] <aliask> Anyone know why mounting a smbfs share from fstab locking up, but doing it manually using mount -t smbfs works fine? It also locks the folder I was mounting to, so I can't remount to that point...
[04:33] <tony_00021> naw actually.. it was sarcarm. i think ubuntu-people are gr8. even i can run linux now :)
[04:34] <gdb> ztomic: By leaps and bounds. :-)
[04:34] <ztomic> MSIGuy: never been there... of course, why would I?
[04:34] <Pelo> aliask,  the lovely ppl in #samba might be able to help
[04:34] <MSIGuy> I remeber the first question I asked their...
[04:34] <MSIGuy> My response was, "Go fsck yourself"...  lol
[04:34] <gdb> Pelo: Help?  I'm sorry, I do believe I'm here seeking to solve an issue. :-)
[04:34] <aliask> Pelo: I'll give it a shot, but I think it's something more to do with ubuntu
[04:34] <gdb> er I don't believe
[04:35] <ztomic> MSIGuy: their=there?
[04:35] <MSIGuy> Perhaps.
[04:35] <tony_00021> jeebus
[04:35] <MSIGuy> No, but I do have  a beard.
[04:35] <ztomic> I hate the 3 there's
[04:35] <ugarit> ubotu: that won't help since the wifi hardware is no longer showing up in that utility
[04:35] <MrOtacon> MSIGuy: me too
[04:35] <n2diy> ztomic:  and the triple dueces.
[04:35] <zabin> duelboot: yes /etc/init.d/gdm restart

[04:37] <asdf> Pelo: nope
[04:37] <MSIGuy> But as long as it plays, truthfully, I'm content.

[04:38] <tony_00021> yeah its out of necessity
[04:38] <Pelo> asdf,  what was the name of the package ?
[04:38] <qnyc> asdf, I've never used it, but looking at the package contents, you might want to look at /usr/share/doc/kommando/examples/kommandorc
[04:38] <lousygarua> Pelo: ok thanks. it's still weird it just happened out of the blue

[04:39] <MSIGuy> Compression for one!  lol

[04:39] <gdb> tritium: It's not proprietary.
[04:39] <tritium> gdb: it sure is
[04:39] <Pelo> tony_00021,  nautilus is the file manager in ubuntu

[04:39] <asdf> qnyc: does that mean there's no terminal call?
[04:40] <gdb> The patent expired on it in October of last year.
[04:40] <qnyc> asdf, correct

[04:40] <LKRaider> could anyone get the svn source of the OpenChrome VIA driver? ( http://svn.openchrome.org/svn/branches/experimental_branch )
[04:40] <qnyc> asdf, beyond that I'm afraid I don't know
[04:41] <ztomic> and earlier I got bitched at for being "off-topic."
[04:41] <n2diy> MrOtacon: what do you want to export it to? Cookies are just text files, copy and paste might work?
[04:41] <LKRaider> My ISP wont allow svn access :(
[04:41] <slavi1> LKRaider: sue them
[04:41] <tritium> ztomic: however, I didn't ask you to leave, as you suggested

[04:41] <rvb> I connected an external usb drive to my computer and the next time I started it I got this message after choosing Ubuntu 7.04 or Windows XP in GRUB: "Error 29: Disk write error". Used XP disc to do fixboot and fixmbr which got Windows started. When I try to install Debian or Ubuntu I get this at the part where I accept partition changes: "Input/output error during write on /dev/hdb ERROR!!!"...
[04:42] <rvb> ...on Ubuntu and "Input/output error during read on /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target1/lun0/disc ERROR!!!" on Debian. dmesg gives me several: "end_request: I/O error, dev hdb, sector" and then a number. There were lots of 0 and 8 and a few 74252424. I just reformatted the drive with XP cd and installed XP, I also tried loading the optimized and then fail-safe defaults on BIOS but I *still* get that...
[04:42] <rvb> ...message when I get to the part where I accept partition changes, so I can't install either Debian or Ubuntu. Any ideas on what the problem is?
[04:42] <LKRaider> slavi1: I will, but right now I need the video drivers :(
[04:42] <eyemean> im trying to also get cam to work and its a nightmare
[04:42] <asdf> qnyc: thanks anyway
[04:42] <LKRaider> slavi1: could you checkout the code and zip it to me?
[04:42] <greenmanspirit> does ubuntu server come with an easy way to install a mail server that works with php?
[04:42] <qnyc> eyemean, go to System -> Preferences -> Volume Control, that is the mixer, your microphone is probably muted in there

[04:55] <enviouz> hang on ill get you a link
[04:55] <wolfwalker> I don't have anything restricted.  I checked system>admin and it doesn't have anything about restricted drivers.
[04:55] <scoobydoo28139> I do that to np thanks for the reply though
[04:56] <mneptok> wolfwalker: Ubuntu or Kubuntu?
[04:56] <wolfwalker> Ubuntu
[04:56] <qnyc> wolfwalker, type dpkg -l restricted-manager
[04:56] <scoobydoo28139> When i boot it is fine now but it did flash colors that made no sense

[04:57] <pixelation> I accidentally ran a crap load of programs all at once, then Xubuntu crashed. When I restarted, The taskbar and application bar didn't load.
[04:57] <scoobydoo28139> mneptok: is that like chkdsk?
[04:57] <mneptok> wolfwalker: 6.06 does not have the restricted drivers manager
[04:57] <snake_> i have a problem with my sound card. it was ok but i do not know what i messed up. i did sudo apt-get autoremove and its not working anymore
[04:57] <wolfwalker> Okay.............. so now what?
[04:57] <mneptok> scoobydoo28139: yes, except with less Suck(tm)
[04:57] <pixelation> Oh, plus the application that crashed Xubuntu loaded when I logged on.
[04:58] <scoobydoo28139> lol
[04:58] <wolfwalker> snake_:  What I did was just use a five dollar USB stick soundcard.
[04:58] <wolfwalker> It works :)
[04:58] <mneptok> wolfwalker: update to Feisty?

[04:58] <snake_> wolfwalker: the sound card was ok
[04:58] <wolfwalker> Okay, I have the OS already here on a disk somewhere
[04:58] <qnyc> wolfwalker, you're life would be easier, feisty is soooo slick ;)
[04:58] <scoobydoo28139> mneptok: I think when it got done the restricted drivers goofed, its fine now
[04:59] <snake_> but now i am not listening sound
[04:59] <scoobydoo28139> glitch
[04:59] <wolfwalker> Slick schmick, I just recently installed this OS and now have to redo everything
[04:59] <wolfwalker> Feh
[04:59] <Music_Shuffle> mneptok, curious, is there any way to make it run...every 40 times?  Or more as opposed to whatever the default is?
[04:59] <wolfwalker> But the 3D graphics accelerator would actually WORK under Feisty?
[04:59] <qnyc> wolfwalker, could just update, but that involved 6.06 -> 6.10 -> 7.04
[05:00] <enviouz> yes i have same card (on a desktop) workls great with up[dated drivers (not the ones from the repo)
[05:00] <wolfwalker> Okay, where do you get the updated drivers?
[05:01] <enviouz> http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/Testing/fglrx-8.37.6-Feisty/
[05:01] <wolfwalker> Egad!
[05:01] <wolfwalker> Okay, so which do I need from there?
[05:02] <qnyc> newbuntu, if it were me personally, I always partition first with gparted using gparted livecd or sysresccd (both small livecds)
[05:02] <qnyc> newbuntu, might give that a try before the ubuntu install
[05:02] <noway-> Arenlor, no luck... I didn't add the sym links though... do you have a refernce to what the sym links should be?
[05:03] <enviouz> with my fiesty install i grabbed all the fglrx debs (driver, control, kernel source, and driver dev) as well as restricted modules and restricted common
[05:03] <BillyBeans> how do i get beryl to work?
[05:03] <mneptok> Music_Shuffle: /etc/init.d is where the scripts live. never bothered to see what activates them.
[05:03] <scoobydoo28139> WOW I thought support for ubuntu was easy, looking at this room a lot i feel guilty for asking:)
[05:03] <enviouz> note though these only wrok with fiesty (7.04). after you update the kernel
[05:04] <psyber_> does anyone in here run fiesty 64bit version?
[05:04] <d4rkmonkey> no
[05:04] <scoobydoo28139> psyber: i did
[05:04] <d4rkmonkey> but I have a 64bit CD!
[05:04] <qnyc> BillyBeans, the folks in #ubuntu-effects can help
[05:04] <d4rkmonkey> lol
[05:04] <joobeom> oh..
[05:04] <Arenlor> noway- sudo ln -s /usr/lib/j2re1.5-sun/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/
[05:04] <Arenlor> If the path for your java is slightly different, simply adjust the commands to reflect this.
[05:04] <noway-> Arenlor, thanks
[05:04] <joobeom> bye
[05:04] <enviouz> also you need the modules for your specific kernel (not all of them)
[05:04] <scoobydoo28139> psyber_: what do ya need?
[05:04] <imbecile> !ntfs
[05:04] <n2diy> d4rkmonkey: right control+ right shift+ character code 
[05:04] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[05:04] <Xraven> if i use gparted to create a partion, will it delete the date already on my drive?
[05:05] <Xraven> data*
[05:05] <psyber_> scoobydoo28139:  I am a bit concerned that half of the system tools are unavailable for amd64 systems..... did I do something wrong during the install?
[05:06] <enviouz> Xraven:  any data on that partition yes
[05:06] <d4rkmonkey> OMG
[05:06] <DaBigShow> one know how to finish installing pidgin-2.0.2
[05:06] <DaBigShow> Does anyone
[05:06] <Xraven> evious: so if i creat a new partion it will wipe my hard drive?
[05:06] <noway-> Arenlor, no luck... not in about:plugins
[05:06] <scoobydoo28139> psyber_:In my experience it ran good on this machine , but some tools were diferent, also other progy's too
[05:06] <enviouz> Xraven:  what is your partition sceme currently?
[05:07] <qnyc> Xraven, you can resize your existing partiion to make room for new ones, if it's windows, defrag first, and backup!
[05:07] <Arenlor> DaBigShow there is a INSTALL file in it
[05:07] <noway-> Arenlor, could it be a different plugin directory?
[05:07] <Xraven> right now its 100 % to windows
[05:07] <DaBigShow> yes
[05:07] <enviouz> how much space is windows actually using though?
[05:07] <joo> hi
[05:07] <Xraven> like 40 gigs
[05:07] <enviouz> out of?
[05:07] <Xraven> 160
[05:07] <PanzerMKZ> so how do you stop a ubuntu system from updating?
[05:07] <Arenlor> noway- I'm not sure maybe, not sure why I would be though, but have you tried using Java?
[05:08] <PanzerMKZ> auto updating that is
[05:08] <scoobydoo28139> psyber_: I did note though, in my novice experience, that the 64 edition was faster on my amd duel core.
[05:08] <Xraven> this is what i have set up in g parted: 100 gigs to windows, a 512mb swap and 40 gigs of a new partion NTFS
[05:08] <noway-> Arenlor, I havent tried using it, but java -version works
[05:08] <Xraven> i havent hit apply yet
[05:09] <enviouz> ok during install if you select guided resize partion x (where x is your windows partition) you can resize the windows partition and make a new sceme for ubuntu without damaging your data on the windows partition
[05:09] <qnyc> PanzerMKZ, it doesn't actually update though does it? just notifies you of updates...
[05:09] <n2diy> How can I get Nautilus to _not_ abbreviate file sizes?
[05:09] <Arenlor> noway- as long as Java works I think you should be fine
[05:09] <psyber_> scoobydoo28139: cool thanks.  I am trying to install gnome partion but it says that the program is unavailable on amd64
[05:09] <enviouz> dont choose use whole disk
[05:09] <qnyc> PanzerMKZ, you could uninstall update-manager
[05:09] <Xraven> i got an error message on the partion part of ubuntu instalation
[05:09] <PanzerMKZ> it updated
[05:09] <enviouz> what is it?
[05:10] <PanzerMKZ> I noticed that I had dropped to one proc
[05:10] <osxdude|palmTX> yeah, Xraven, what is the errormessage you got
[05:10] <scoobydoo28139> psyber_: thats stuff is why I re-installed this 32 bit edition
[05:10] <thufir007hawat12> has anyone actually gotten a Samsung ml2510 working?
[05:10] <Xraven> wait im goan run it again
[05:10] <MrOtacon> it shouldn't update without asking for root password - the updater sudo's the update process
[05:10] <PanzerMKZ> and then I checked and I was not using the 686 smp kernel
[05:11] <psyber_> scoobydoo28139: yeah... that is what I am thinking about doing too.  Was just wondering if this was a common issue or if I did something dumb
[05:11] <santims> can someone help me getting Flash working on my 64bit machine  running 7.04?????
[05:11] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: how many CPUs does lshw report?
[05:11] <PanzerMKZ> but I guess then I will uninstall updater
[05:11] <osxdude|palmTX> the updater uses Synaptic. Thats why you need "sudo"
[05:11] <scoobydoo28139> psyber_: If you did then i did rite along with ya so, your not alone:)
[05:11] <Xraven> An error occurred while writing the changes to the storage devices.
[05:11] <Xraven> The resize operation is aborted.
[05:11] <PanzerMKZ> I don't have the computer here now
[05:11] <psyber_> lol another 64bit issue I think I am gonna go back to 32
[05:12] <psyber_> it looks like gusty might be a bit more 64bit friendly
[05:12] <scoobydoo28139> psyber_: are you a registered user?
[05:12] <osxdude|palmTX> so if you want to chack for updates, use Synaptic.
[05:12] <enviouz> ive never gotten that one before
[05:12] <enviouz> Xraven:  are you in windows right now?
[05:12] <PanzerMKZ> I mean it has been great
[05:12] <Xraven> no live ubuntu cd
[05:12] <newbuntu> may I leave 200Gb of free space and format it in FAT32 with gparted AFTER I installed my /, /home and swap ?
[05:12] <PanzerMKZ> once I got the right kernels and such.
[05:12] <MrOtacon> santims: check this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=341727
[05:12] <PanzerMKZ> just hated to see that I was on only one today
[05:12] <osxdude|palmTX> Xraven: make sur the frive is not mounter
[05:13] <vbabiy> hey guys whats a good site downloader
[05:13] <MrOtacon> newbuntu: yeah - should'nt matter if you dont use the free space
[05:13] <psyber_> scoobydoo28139: registered with what? ubuntu forums?
[05:13] <Xraven> then it takes me to "prepare Partitions" screen
[05:13] <rbil> vbabiy: man wget
[05:13] <imbecile> ok guys, steam is coming out of my ears here... how do i write to an ntfs partition? ive installed ntfs-3g AND fuse with no luck
[05:13] <vbabiy> rbil: that will follow links
[05:13] <scoobydoo28139> psyber_:yes
[05:13] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: no your system reported (1) CPU?
[05:13] <psyber_> yes
[05:13] <osxdude|palmTX> vbabiy: That's for the offtopic channel.
[05:13] <PanzerMKZ> yea just one
[05:13] <MrOtacon> imbecile: sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[05:13] <vbabiy> osxdude|palmTX: why?
[05:13] <scoobydoo28139> xchat
[05:14] <joo> xchat ?
[05:14] <qnyc> vbabiy, there's a gui front end too if you need it, gwget
[05:14] <osxdude|palmTX> oh. never mind.
[05:14] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: hmmm, I wonder what cpu (0) was doing?
[05:14] <Xraven> any help ?
[05:14] <MrOtacon> imbecile: add -3g after the ntfs there, so it becomes ntfs-3g
[05:14] <PanzerMKZ> sorry
[05:14] <enviouz> Xraven:  brb im gonna check something out once
[05:14] <Xraven> kk thanks
[05:14] <psyber_> scoobydoo28139: psyberpnk is my ubuntu forums name
[05:14] <MrOtacon> imbecile: then save (make sure ro isn't listed as an option)
[05:14] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: hmmm, I wonder what cpu (0) was doing?
[05:14] <PanzerMKZ> it reported cpu (0)
[05:14] <twocarlo> for every ubuntu installation, i need to create swap partition after the first partition
[05:14] <PanzerMKZ> cpu 1 was gone
[05:14] <chasetoys> how do i get flash installed on ubuntu 7.04?
[05:14] <MrOtacon> imbecile: then sudo umount -a, then sudo mount -a
[05:15] <MrOtacon> imbecile: now you can write to it
[05:15] <scoobydoo28139> psyber_: ok's i am noob ,so i am learniing also
[05:15] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: ok, so it didn't find the second CPU, #1?
[05:15] <PanzerMKZ> yea
[05:15] <PanzerMKZ> that is correct
[05:15] <osxdude|palmTX> oh no my battery is 15%! GTG Soon!
[05:15] <santims> MrOtacon: thank you for that link i had some of the 32lib stuff installed i guess i needed some more
[05:15] <Xraven> so if i try partitioning with  GParted its going to delete the data already on it?
[05:15] <qnyc> chasetoys, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[05:15] <PanzerMKZ> but when I go back and boot on the older kernel in grub then it finds the second proc
[05:15] <MrOtacon> santims: np dude :)
[05:15] <jscinoz> hey guys i made a linux boot CD, if i want to add kernel options like i had in grub do i put it on the  "kernel vmlinuz" line?
[05:15] <PanzerMKZ> but X breaks
[05:15] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: ok, when you search for a new kernel, look under linux, not kernel.
[05:16] <gregorovius> which is the proper way to 'make install' on ubuntu, so it creates an apt entry?
[05:16] <Alonea> hey, are there IME's for Linux?
[05:16] <PanzerMKZ> today I searched for smp
[05:16] <osxdude|palmTX> Xraven. I thnk the installer uses gparted. THat is why it's inc;uded on the CD.
[05:16] <enviouz> not sure Xraven ive never did it that way
[05:16] <qnyc> gregorovius, checkinstall
[05:16] <scoobydoo28139> psyber_: you can pm if ya have any questions
[05:16] <osxdude|palmTX> (stupid keyboard)
[05:16] <gregorovius> qnyc, thanks
[05:16] <scoobydoo28139> brb
[05:16] <PanzerMKZ> and found the same version of smp kernel as what it had updated to
[05:16] <joo> i have the 'Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz', but installed SMP kernel. why dose it install 'SMP kernel'?
[05:16] <Xraven> so it wont delete the data on my hard drive?
[05:16] <psyber_> scoobydoo28139:  yeah I dont have time to tweek my system like I used to.  It needs to work as much out of the box as possible.  I think I will wait until 64bit support is a bit more rampant
[05:16] <TabooTreez> does anyone now how I can auto mount my windows partition  upon login?
[05:17] <imbecile> MrOtacon,  its telling me the device is busy
[05:17] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: search for linux, and you'll see a listing of all available kernels, search for kernel, and you get zilch.
[05:17] <newbuntu> chasetoys:  AMD64 or 32bits ?
[05:17] <PanzerMKZ> ok I searched for SMP only
[05:17] <unagi> !usplash
[05:17] <ubotu> To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[05:17] <PanzerMKZ> not linux or kernel
[05:17] <chasetoys> newbuntu: 32
[05:17] <enviouz> ive never ran an install from the live invironment. i always use text mode for manufactures
[05:17] <MrOtacon> imbecile: you have to close anything using the directory and leave it also - so just goto your home folder in xterminal or something and make sure anything accessing stuff on it is closed
[05:17] <PanzerMKZ> and I found the smp 686 kernel I was searching for
[05:17] <PanzerMKZ> installed it and booted it
[05:17] <MrOtacon> imbecile: then it will work - or at least should
[05:17] <osxdude|palmTX> TabooTreez. If it is an NTFS drive, ntfs-config will auto mount the NTFS drive on boot.
[05:18] <PanzerMKZ> it booted fine. Just the update has also broken X
[05:18] <psyber_> scoobydoo28139:  catch u later.  Thanks for the help
[05:18] <TabooTreez> osxdude|palmTX, how do I enable that
[05:18] <scoobydoo28139> psyber_: later man
[05:18] <Flannel> Xraven: You've got data on a partition you want to keep?  orwhats the situation?
[05:18] <joo> ...
[05:18] <newbuntu> chasetoys:  Synaptic, sun-java6-plugin
[05:19] <PanzerMKZ> but thanks for the help.
[05:19] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: ok, here is what I'm running on my dual PIIs: darryl@Chatto:~$ uname -a
[05:19] <n2diy> Linux Chatto 2.6.15-28-686 #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu May 10 09:56:30 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[05:19] <n2diy> darryl@Chatto:~$
[05:19] <osxdude|palmTX> TabooTreez: go to Synaptic and search for ntfs-config.
[05:19] <Xraven> yea theres a partion taking 100% of the drive i need
[05:19] <unagi> i dont understand usplash
[05:19] <osxdude|palmTX> me neither
[05:19] <unagi> the splash displays for the shutdown but not the start up is that normal?
[05:19] <Xraven> i want to reduce it to 50% without loosing the data on it
[05:19] <Flannel> Xraven: What sort of partition?  NTFS?  How much data do you have on it?
[05:19] <TabooTreez> osxdude|palmTX, its installed
[05:19] <Xraven> NTFS, 40 gigs
[05:20] <Xraven> out of 160 gigs
[05:20] <PanzerMKZ> n2diy: yea I was running 2.6.15-26-686 SMP
[05:20] <Y___Y> TE ARDEN LOS OJOS CAGON!!! TE ARDEN LOS OJOS CAGON!!! TE ARDEN LOS OJOS CAGON!!! TE ARDEN LOS OJOS CAGON!!! TE ARDEN LOS OJOS CAGON!!! TE ARDEN LOS OJOS CAGON!!!

[05:20] <particleman> ok...I have an ATI Radeon 9200, I configured it using the ati driver according to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver
[05:20] <joo> i installed xchat..
[05:20] <rustalot> I'm looking to get a linux laptop. Is system76 a good retailer?
[05:20] <PanzerMKZ> and then it updated to 2.6.15-27 386 kernel
[05:20] <Flannel> Xraven: you should be ok.  You should defrag first.  And actually, if you have the ability, shrink it with a windows tool.  That's safer.
[05:20] <daniellibanori> hi, I've bought a Thinkpad T61 and I am trying to install Ubuntu, but, when I choose 'start or install...' option, I get a busybox shell saying 'can't find sh' or something similar. Could anyone help me?
[05:20] <particleman> but despite adding the 1360x768 resolution to xorg.conf, it's not showing up when I try and change my display resolution in gnome
[05:20] <osxdude|palmTX> TabooTreez: Go to Applications>System Tools>NTFS Config... Tool.
[05:20] <joo> i rejoin...
[05:20] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: did you restart the box? Kernel changes require rebooting.
[05:20] <MrOtacon> Xraven: you can resize with gparted
[05:21] <enviouz> Flannel:  the problem is the resize is failing when Xraven tries to install
[05:21] <osxdude|palmTX> (Hurry! my battery is low!_
[05:21] <particleman> and in fact my list of available resolutions in gnome's screen resolution utility seem to have nothing to do with the list in xorg.conf
[05:21] <Xraven> will it delete the data on it?
[05:21] <osxdude|palmTX> )
[05:21] <particleman> currently running Dapper, kernel 2.6.15-27\
[05:21] <fduplex> daniellibanori: you might want to run the test cd option at the boot menu. Maybe the disc is damaged or the drive is having trouble reading it
[05:21] <PanzerMKZ> n2diy: yea I got the newer kernel 2.6.15-27 smp 686 and restarted. it runs on the new kernel and shows up both procs
[05:21] <MrOtacon> sorry qtparted - gparted cannot
[05:21] <qnyc> Xraven, no but you should back up important data
[05:21] <Flannel> Xraven: Will what?  Shrinking?  no.  Unless something goes wrong, then it might.  You *should* defrag it before shrkning it (and use a windows based shrinker, if you've got one)
[05:22] <joobeom> hi..
[05:22] <osxdude|palmTX> hi
[05:22] <TabooTreez> osxdude|palmTX, it has a check mark to enable it but I can only enable external devices not internal
[05:22] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: Ok, now I'm confused, sounds like it worked?
[05:22] <PanzerMKZ> n2diy: now the issue is how to stop it from updating to the -28 kernel and fixing x so that I can get x on the newer smp kernel
[05:22] <Xraven> ok
[05:22] <Xraven> thanks
[05:22] <qnyc> MrOtacon, qtparted and gparted are both the same parted
[05:22] <daniellibanori> fduplex, I will try, but, I think it's hard
[05:22] <MrOtacon> Xraven: i recommend using partition magic 8 - if you can get it - great for windows partitions and fast - never lost data uing it
[05:22] <joobeom> i'm first..
[05:22] <joobeom> kk..
[05:22] <osxdude|palmTX> That means you have no NTFS drive inside...
[05:22] <qnyc> bah, I trust gparted more than Partition Magic
[05:22] <osxdude|palmTX> odd
[05:22] <Xraven> yea i have it
[05:23] <rbil> qnyc: no kidding
[05:23] <TabooTreez> osxdude|palmTX, well I do. I dual boot windows and ubuntu.
[05:23] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: Ah, ok, go into update manager, and tell it to only update security patches, or something like that.
[05:23] <PanzerMKZ> ok
[05:23] <MrOtacon> qnyc: i always thought gparted was only able to copy ntfs and not resize?
[05:23] <osxdude|palmTX> I GET THAT THE BATTER Y IS LO... TabooTree: Hmmm...is ntfs-3g installed?
[05:24] <PanzerMKZ> n2diy: thanks. I will try that tomorrow
[05:24] <davidfwatson> how do I register my username here on irc?
[05:24] <qnyc> it fully supports ntfs
[05:24] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: GL
[05:24] <osxdude|palmTX> DFW: You don't.
[05:24] <crxyem> ok, I;m ready do do an update from edgy to feisty , my question is I use connection-manager for my wireless connection and I noticed 7.04 uses knetwork manager now, and it works well, should I remove connection-maanger before I upgrade ? ?
[05:24] <davidfwatson> ah, k
[05:24] <PanzerMKZ> n2diy: I hope so. it is a dual 733 so losing one proc means alot
[05:24] <MrOtacon> cool - i must have been cause i was using the livecd with no network at the time - it was complaining about needing ntfsprogs
[05:25] <mangojambo> Hi, I'm having problem to use gmailfs ... do someone here use that ?
[05:25] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: I know, I'm running dual 333 mhz!
[05:25] <osxdude|palmTX> DFW: Heh, that's an airport -Dallas & Fort Worth-
[05:25] <PanzerMKZ> n2diy: my file server is a dual 500 cel running dapper server. Runs great
[05:26] <qnyc> Xraven, what to do in a nutshell: defrag, backup, boot with gparted livecd or sysresccd, run gparted to resize ntfs and create linux partitions, reboot in windows and it will disk check the ntfs partition.
[05:26] <qnyc> Xraven, then run ubuntu install cd
[05:26] <PanzerMKZ> n2diy: but this is my first time with a gui on a linux box.
[05:26] <particleman> hmm...ok not to be a pest...just wanna make sure my graphics problems haven't gotten lost in the shuffle
[05:27] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: roger that, haven't set up any servers, but my test/back up box is the sister to this one, running dual 300 mhz PIIs.
[05:27] <brucewang> AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! im getting so mad!!!!! line 9 in etc/fstab is bad now :/
[05:27] <Selrach> I have a problem with Ubuntu, it would seem ACPI is going wacko in it, disabling it doesn't any good, and I just tried updating the BIOS, and that does not appear to help any. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

[05:28] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: Roger that, I just DLed 7.04, and it goes on the test box tomorrow.
[05:29] <brucewang> osxdude|palmTX,  Ive tried 4 different alternatives to watch a stupid movie and all have been nothing but problems... this have been going on for 14 hours
[05:29] <linuxnub> !google | Selrach
[05:29] <ubotu> Selrach: Google is a very popular search engine: http://www.google.com  -  Google also has a Linux-specific search engine: http://google.com/linux
[05:29] <osxdude|palmTX> gtg. My batt is low and it's 10:3 CDT.
[05:29] <MrOtacon> i also have acpi probs you know... i havent figured out how to fix em so i am listening to whatever anyone says too :) - my comp only halts whenever i use poweroff or shutdown -P... i have to pull the cable
[05:29] <osxdude|palmTX> ^10:30
[05:29] <Selrach> the problem isnt like yours
[05:29] <Selrach> my problem is that Ubuntu refuses to boot into a GUI
[05:29] <Selrach> after starting ACPI services it sayed Killed
[05:30] <Selrach> and then I get the command prompt login
[05:30] <MrOtacon> ahh - had that too, but that was my nvidia drivers
[05:30] <PanzerMKZ> n2diy: I tried to install 7.04 desktop on this dual 733 and it installed fine and I liked it but it would hardlock
[05:30] <chasetoys> how do i install beryl
[05:30] <chasetoys> wait how do i install nvidia drivers first
[05:30] <Selrach> my motherboard uses nvidia chipsets
[05:30] <Selrach> could that be it?
[05:30] <qnyc> !ops @ revmischa
[05:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ops @ revmischa - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:30] <qnyc> revmischa pasted a nasty link
[05:30] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: That isn't good news, did you figure out why it was locking up?
[05:30] <MrOtacon> i'm certain there is a prob with nvidia and acpi
[05:31] <Selrach> I updated my BIOS
[05:31] <Selrach> and it fixed a few problems but nothing related to mine
[05:31] <brucewang> who can tell me how to write to an ntfs partition? and dont give me that !ntfs stuff thats one of the reasons im irritated
[05:31] <Hobbsee> omg.
[05:31] <Selrach> the splash screen of my BIOS is fixed now :O
[05:31] <Flannel> brucewang: install ntfs-config, then go to system > ntfs or whatever, and enable it.
[05:31] <MrOtacon> see if this gets you into a gui
[05:31] <dauoalagio2> wtf that was disgusting
[05:31] <Hobbsee> qnyc: thanks.  and you wanted !ops | revmischa
[05:32] <MrOtacon> sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx          sudo apt-get remove nvidia-settings             sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:32] <qnyc> ahh ok, thank you sir
[05:32] <Selrach> uh
[05:32] <quaal> why have all my samba shares disappeared
[05:32] <MrOtacon> then in the device section - change where it says nvidia to nv
[05:32] <Selrach> i don't use nvidia video card
[05:32] <quaal> and i cannot share samba anymore
[05:32] <quaal> only unix shares
[05:32] <Hobbsee> qnyc: no problem
[05:32] <Selrach> my motherboard simply has it for part of its chipset
[05:32] <Selrach> it has no built in video
[05:32] <MrOtacon> ahh - ok, mn :)
[05:32] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: missed the last bit of stuff. my modem disconnected
[05:32] <Selrach> I have an ATI video card in my PCI express slot
[05:33] <chasetoys>  how do i install nvidia drivers
[05:33] <Flannel> brucewang: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions  Has all the instructions (without my crappy interpretation)
[05:33] <shadeofgrey> hey everybody..  could someone please look at a webpage that i found describing how to install feisty on macbookpro's with ati graphics cards?
[05:33] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: That isn't good news, did you figure out why it was locking up?
[05:33] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: I just dumped that install and went back to dapper
[05:33] <Selrach> odd thing is, mrotacon... I can install debian/mandriva just fine on the same machine
[05:33] <brucewang> Flannel,  can you help me with my fstab as well?
[05:33] <shadeofgrey> he tells how to load the text installer and incluses what has to be done to update and then install packages through apt get but doesnt say a word about using bootcamp or anything
[05:34] <mcquaid> hmm, without updating anything, I seem to be having a slight network problem
[05:34] <shadeofgrey> he also says to use the alternate x386 iso
[05:34] <MrOtacon> yeah - debain works for me too - even acpi... im sure there is something wrong in feisty
[05:34] <brucewang> someone who was trying to help me got it messed up
[05:34] <Flannel> shadeofgrey: That's what you want to use.  Since it's an intel mac, right?
[05:34] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: Ok, re-install, or did you have a recovery option? I haven't tried an upgrade yet.
[05:34] <mcquaid> i run two boxes on my lan, both can ping each other, but one can't ping itself either by ip or localhost
[05:34] <MrOtacon> chasetoys: check this http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Install_Nvidia_driver :)
[05:34] <Flannel> brucewang: pastebin it
[05:34] <shadeofgrey> flannel:  yes
[05:34] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: reinstalled.
[05:34] <Selrach> I moved back to mandriva... it has better audio support for some reason
[05:34] <Selrach> my audio was glitchy when playing CDs on debian
[05:34] <shadeofgrey> flannel:  could you take a look at the page i found and then help me fill in the blanks?
[05:34] <Flannel> shadeofgrey: yeah, you want the i386 CD then, and alternate is much more flexible than the DEsktop CD.
[05:34] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: the FF install was new. I did not lose much.
[05:34] <mcquaid> and in network-admin and ifconfig, lo is not listed
[05:35] <Maelya> I receive this error message 'Makefile.linux:151: *** Cannot find a kernel config file.  Stop.' when I try to run install.sh for the Intel 82865G graphics card driver?
[05:35] <quaal> why have all my samba shares disappeared, and i cannot share on samba anymore? i can only make unix shares. if i make samba shares they disappear after i close the shared folders window.
[05:35] <shadeofgrey> Flannel, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=414194
[05:35] <mcquaid> i have lo listed in /etc/network/interfaces
[05:35] <Maelya> Does anyone know how to fix this? :/
[05:35] <abel> I need a theme
[05:35] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: Roger that, what am I saying, recover is an M$ option! :)
[05:35] <Flannel> shadeofgrey: Jordan_U has done it, he'd be your best resource.. whenever he wakes up.
[05:35] <Selrach> mrotacon: do you have any ideas how I can fix the problem with ubuntu? I would really like to get it running so I can actually try it
[05:35] <linuxnub> !samba | quaal
[05:35] <ubotu> quaal: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[05:35] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: yea I have been down that road many times.
[05:35] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: And that is why I have a test box here, all I loose is the install time.
[05:36] <PanzerMKZ_> yea
[05:36] <quaal> linuxnub, thank you i am well aware of what samba accomplishes.
[05:36] <Flannel> shadeofgrey: but, from what I understand, it's pretty cut and dry.  You don't need to use bootcamp, because of BIOS emulation.
[05:36] <MrOtacon> Selrach: other than installing kde desktop and using the kdm manager instead of gdm - i dont know what to try
[05:36] <Selrach> my problem is that I don't get any GUI at all, I tried kubuntu too
[05:36] <maeth> how can i stop the vmware ethernet without restarting my pc? im using ubuntu feisty fawn
[05:36] <Selrach> same issue
[05:36] <linuxnub> great quaal then fix it
[05:37] <shadeofgrey> dude
[05:37] <shadeofgrey> yes
[05:37] <quaal> linuxnub, do not speak to me.
[05:37] <shadeofgrey> 'you do have to use bootcamp
[05:37] <Selrach> I tried installing ati drivers, but nada
[05:37] <linuxnub> heheh
[05:37] <shadeofgrey> im not looking to vm'
[05:37] <MrOtacon> Selrach: im sorryi cant be a better help - ni dude
[05:37] <Maelya> Has anyone else had any trouble with installing Intel graphics card drivers on Ubuntu?
[05:37] <shadeofgrey> Selrach, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=414194
[05:37] <rbil> Selrach: do u get to a login prompt?
[05:37] <Selrach> yes
[05:37] <Selrach> after Killed.
[05:37] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: Things will get hairy here if I like Feisty, currently I don't have a /home partition, but the next install will, so who knows what kind of migration problems I'll have to a new box with a /home partition?
[05:37] <Flannel> shadeofgrey: BIOS emulation isn't a VM, it's a hardware emulation of the BIOS, so you can install GRUB and stuff.
[05:37] <Selrach> i don't even know what was killed
[05:37] <rbil> have u looked at the xorg log file?
[05:38] <Selrach> no.. I didn't think to check there
[05:38] <Selrach> >_<
[05:38] <shadeofgrey> im going to let the installer put down lilo instead of grub
[05:38] <maeth> how can i stop a restricted driver without restarting my pc???
[05:38] <shadeofgrey> im curious to see if the alternate cd will boot in liveCD mode
[05:38] <particleman> alright...time to ask again
[05:38] <qnyc> maeth, video card?
[05:38] <Hmmmm> hey guys, how can i change the time at which cron.daily runs?
[05:38] <Selrach> rbil: the strange thing is
[05:38] <Flannel> shadeofgrey: Alternate CD doesn't have a liveCD, so no it wont.
[05:39] <tritium> shadeofgrey: it won't
[05:39] <shadeofgrey> maeth, /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[05:39] <maeth> qnyc, is not a video card...
[05:39] <chasetoys> wheres this
[05:39] <chasetoys> In the left window of the menu editor choose System Tools, then click the New Entry button.
[05:39] <maeth> shadeofgrey, is not a video card
[05:39] <Selrach> rbil: I got the same error when I boot up as when I tried to use the live CD
[05:39] <particleman> I'm trying to get my ATI Radeon 9200 to display at 1360x768...I think I made the relevant changes in my xorg.conf, but the list of resolutions in gnome has nothing to do with that file
[05:39] <particleman> any ideas?
[05:39] <maeth> shadeofgrey, is the vmware virtual ethernet
[05:39] <n2diy> Hmmmm: study the man cron page, don't know how to do it otherwise.
[05:39] <maeth> qnyc, is the vmware virtual ethernet
[05:39] <rbil> Selrach: are u sure the disk is good?
[05:39] <Selrach> my hard drive?
[05:39] <santims> how do i give myself access to my /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins folder in order to finish trying to get flash to work on my machine??? i think i knew how to do this a while ago but cant remember how to do it
[05:39] <qnyc> maeth, sorry not sure about that one?
[05:39] <Selrach> oh the CD
[05:39] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy; are your boxen just file servers?
[05:39] <Selrach> yes, I am sure
[05:40] <rbil> Selrach: livecd disk
[05:40] <Selrach> I verified tis MD5 before
[05:40] <qnyc> maeth, s/?/./
[05:40] <Selrach> I burned it
[05:40] <Selrach> and verified burned data
[05:40] <tritium> !enter | Selrach
[05:40] <ubotu> Selrach: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[05:40] <Selrach> bah, sorry old habit
[05:40] <MrOtacon> Hmmmm: get Kcron - then set it up in there (nice and easy interface) - then, once finished, run "crontabs -e" and change start time (it is in the format minutes hours day week month etc - not visa versa)
[05:40] <maeth> qnyc, how is that?
[05:40] <rbil> Selrach: what error did u get? what video card u using?
[05:40] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: I guess, or I don't know, just desktop stuff for email and browsing, and causing trouble here. :)
[05:40] <qnyc> maeth, typed a ? instead of . ;)
[05:40] <c_lisp> on ubuntu can you install kde for a second manager I tried to but I get a error trying to login to it
[05:40] <Maelya> I receive the error message 'The DRI drivers can not be installed without the latest kernel modules.
[05:40] <Maelya> Installation will be aborted. ' when I try to install an Intel graphics card driver. Does anyone know how to fix this? I'm using the 82865G Intel video card
[05:40] <Hmmmm> MrOtacon:  im using a headless server here. any cnfig i can edit manualy?
[05:41] <brucewang> Flannel, "the volume "maxtor"  uses the file system which is not supported by your system" when i try my external drive,,, here is the pastebin http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27362/
[05:41] <jetole> hey guys, I am having a problem with vmware pre-removal script failing with an error code that is causing problems with synaptic and apt-get, I basically want vmware off this system for the moment, is there a legitimate way to force it off?
[05:41] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: oh. for the file server I would like to have atleast sse. I run folding
[05:41] <Selrach> it wasn't an error per say, the last 3 lines are this: Loading ACPI modules | Starting ACPI services | Killed (then i get login prompt if on hard driver install) ASUS ESX1600XT (ati)
[05:41] <MrOtacon> Hmmmm:  "crontabs -e" will work, just create the cron manually in there... forget about the Kcron
[05:41] <jetole> vmware install script was failing as well and I don't need it on there either way
[05:41] <Flannel> brucewang: don't use fuse.  Use NTFS-3g.  You're on 7.04, it's already installed.
[05:42] <MrOtacon> sorry - im a bit tipsy - its crontab -e not crontabs -e
[05:42] <dr_willis> I thought NTFS-3G used fuse..
[05:42] <jetole> MrOtacon, crontab -e
[05:42] <dr_willis> !ntfs-3g
[05:42] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[05:42] <brucewang> Flannel,  how do i switch back?
[05:42] <MrOtacon> jetole: ja :)
[05:42] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: OK!! you left me in the dust there, not a clue what sse or folding is?
[05:42] <Hmmmm> MrOtacon:  i have the cron working .problem is it executes at 6 AM. i need it to work at 4 AM
[05:42] <jetole> ;)
[05:42] <linuxnub> ya ntfs-3g is awesome
[05:42] <w116tjb> ubotu: That's not necessary for Feisty, right? It comes preinstalled?
[05:42] <Selrach> rbil: I used 7.04, and I tried both Ubuntu and Kubuntu
[05:42] <jetole> Hmmm 0 4 * * *
[05:42] <MrOtacon> see where it says 0 6 @ the start - change it to 0 4
[05:42] <Flannel> brucewang: remove whatever packages you installed for fuse, and then follow  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[05:42] <Maelya> Does anyone know how to install an Intel graphics card driver on Ubuntu?
[05:43] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: sse are hardcoded instructions on the proc. and folding@home is a research program
[05:43] <andruk> i suddenly have no sound.  i have no idea how to start looking for help.  anybody know any good commands i can look up to get error messages?
[05:43] <foose12> does this thing chose a color for you name for you, or can you oick your own?
[05:43] <thufir007hawat12> i'm at the ubuntu download page and it's not clear what distinguishes desktop ubuntu from LTS
[05:43] <Flannel> w116tjb: you have to install a configuration utility, and then enable it.  But yes, the majority of it is preinstalled.
[05:43] <Selrach> andruk: is your volume up? is it muted?
[05:43] <Flannel> thufir007hawat12: LTS is desktop as well.
[05:43] <jetole> can anyone please suggest a way to remove a package with a failing un install script?
[05:43] <orbisvicis> s
[05:43] <newbuntu> OK guys, it's either pretty bad or something very comon, but I've just completed a brand new install of Feisty 32bits (on an AMD64 proc), and when I rebooted after install, I get a full gribbish window, with the error msg that X-Window could not start and I get in command line  :(
[05:43] <Maelya> Or does Ubuntu not offer support for Intel based graphics card drivers? anyone know? :(
[05:43] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: OK!! I'll take your word for it, still looking at your dust trail. :)
[05:43] <Flannel> thufir007hawat12: 6.06 (the current LTS) is an older version of Ubuntu than 7.04 (the newest version).  They're both full desktops
[05:44] <linuxnub> !delete | jetole
[05:44] <andruk> Selrach: unfortunately, the sound is up and the speakers are not muted
[05:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about delete - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:44] <jetole> Maelya, yes it does
[05:44] <dr_willis> Maelya,  they should be decently well supported. Depends on the specific card i guess.
[05:44] <andruk> !alsa
[05:44] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[05:44] <newbuntu> one msg I get in bootup is MP-BIOS bug:  8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC
[05:44] <MrOtacon> Hmmmm:  see where it says 0 6 @ the start - change it to 0 4
[05:44] <shadeofgrey> Maelya, the folks in ubuntu-effects are good wwith that sort of help
[05:44] <newbuntu> any clues please ?
[05:44] <Selrach> andruk: desktop or laptop?
[05:44] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: no worries mate. I know alot of this stuff from the hardware/windwos days. I am learning much with linux
[05:44] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: If your hard coding proc, you might be happier in #ubuntu-kernel?
[05:44] <andruk> Selrach: desktop
[05:44] <alecw1> How do I set my account as the "root"?
[05:44] <thufir007hawat12> flannel, thanks.  also, just google for a bittorrent seed of ubuntu to download?  i prefer to download with bittorrent
[05:44] <jetole> linuxnub, any more information? I can google it if I know what I am looking for
[05:44] <raddy> Hello Everybody
[05:45] <Selrach> you don't
[05:45] <Selrach> use sudo :alecw1
[05:45] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: for folding look up folding.stanford.edu
[05:45] <alecw1> Selrach, I mean permanately.
[05:45] <Maelya> Ok , thanks guys for your help
[05:45] <andruk> Selrach: ill look around for help on ubuntuforums, i just dont know whats wrong
[05:45] <santims> how do i change permissions for a folder so that i can copy some files into it?
[05:45] <enviouz> newbuntu:  at boot edit the boot line and add linux noapic
[05:45] <Hmmmm> MrOtacon: cool. taking a look
[05:45] <Selrach> alecw1: why? its not wise to have root power permanently
[05:45] <MrOtacon> Hmmmm: :)
[05:45] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: I will be getting into kernel compiling later. Once I know that I can keep this box from breaking when it updates. I don't want to get a new nice kernel and then everything blow up in my face
[05:45] <newbuntu> envious: How do I accomplish this ?
[05:46] <linuxnub> jetole : nope
[05:46] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: Ok, checking the Stanford link now. Mate eh,? Are you from OZ?
[05:46] <thufir007hawat12> can I download ubuntu through bittorrent?
[05:46] <Flannel> thufir007hawat12: releases.ubuntu.com is the easiest way.  I don't know about the new website.  But torrents are available at all the mirrors.
[05:46] <raddy> as per your suggestions i was able to disable dosfsck running always
[05:46] <mage__> how can I let myself use sudo without asking for a password all the time?
[05:46] <kitche> thufir007hawat12: yes
[05:46] <jetole> ok, again, can someone please please tell me how I uninstall a package with a failing un install script?
[05:46] <thufir007hawat12> ok, looking.  where pls, kitchie
[05:46] <alecw1> Well, I ask because I would like to delete a folder in a protected area... and it won't let me.
[05:46] <raddy> now, only one problem
[05:46] <shadeofgrey> thufir007hawat12, yes..  much much faster
[05:46] <alecw1> It says only "root" can.
[05:46] <linuxnub> never had any problems of any kind whatsoever with Feisty
[05:46] <alecw1> :*
[05:46] <qnyc> Flannel, brucewang, actually ntfs3 isn't installed by default, it's still in universe in fact
[05:46] <raddy> please help
[05:46] <Flannel> thufir007hawat12: releases.ubuntu.com, then either 6.06.1 (the LTS) or 7.04, and then the arch you want and Desktop CD.
[05:46] <c_lisp> you can install kde on ubuntu for a second manager?
[05:46] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: no. just have to many aussie friends.
[05:46] <thufir007hawat12> thanks
[05:46] <kitche> mage__: man sudo might tell you
[05:46] <enviouz> at boot when grub start hit esc. then highlight your kernel and hit e to edit then just add it to the end
[05:46] <Selrach> alexw1: try logging into recovery mode, then. you will be in as root
[05:46] <jetole> linuxnub, congrats
[05:46] <Selrach> alecw1: thats the only way I know how
[05:47] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: Roger roger.
[05:47] <mage__> c_lisp theres a kde-desktop metapackage that installs all that KDE stuff
[05:47] <Selrach> alecw1: for ubuntu that is.
[05:47] <alecw1> Selrach, is there another solution?
[05:47] <raddy> My realtek based integrated wired ethernet controller is not usable
[05:47] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: but yea I want to get into kernel compiles
[05:47] <Hmmmm> MrOtacon: , one more query. which file would that info reside in?
[05:47] <alecw1> Ok. I'll ask again in a few minutes.
[05:47] <Selrach> I don't know, alec. ubuntu doesn't allow standard root access
[05:47] <linuxnub> meh its ok
[05:47] <raddy> can anybody help me?
[05:47] <linuxnub> i run Fiesty as my server but i run Sabayon to get things done :)
[05:47] <mobutu> sure it does!  you just need to give 'sudo passwd root'
[05:47] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: Ok, but isn't compiling, and coding two different games?
[05:47] <Flannel> !sudo | alecw1, Selrach
[05:47] <ubotu> alecw1, Selrach: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:48] <Flannel> mobutu: Don't suggest that in here please.  Thanks.
[05:48] <tritium> Selrach: it does, but it's not recommended
[05:48] <newbuntu> brb Enviouz
[05:48] <enviouz> k
[05:48] <thufir007hawat12> found it.  thanks guys.
[05:48] <alecw1> Thanks Flannel, I'll look at this.
[05:48] <MrOtacon> Hmmmm: im not sure - crontab creates a tmp file and loads your crons into that - then saves them once you are done
[05:48] <Selrach> meh
[05:48] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: yea they are. coding is making code is making the code. compiling is making the programs from the code.
[05:48] <fightxum> d
[05:48] <Selrach> ubuntu sure doesn't want to work :/
[05:48] <Selrach> for me
[05:49] <alecw1> Is there a way I can change the folder permissions with the GUI?
[05:49] <shadeofgrey> Selrach, what kind of computer are you using?
[05:49] <Hmmmm> MrOtacon:  fourint it in etc/conrtab
[05:49] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: sse is not something that you could code. it is already in your proc
[05:49] <Selrach> define "type"
[05:49] <Selrach> hardware?
[05:49] <shadeofgrey> ys\
[05:49] <linuxnub> selrach ubuntu is nothing more than a Debian snapshot really
[05:49] <shadeofgrey> what hardware
[05:49] <shadeofgrey> 'how much ram
[05:49] <shadeofgrey> what video card
[05:49] <shadeofgrey> what network card
[05:49] <MrOtacon> Hmmmm: yep - thats it :)
[05:49] <Selrach> Athlon 64 3500+, ECS KN1 Lite, 1 GB ram, ASUS, ati based video card
[05:49] <dr_willis> 'whats the air speed of a laden swallow?'
[05:49] <budji> feisty problem, "Cannot Display this Video mode" on a Dell Dimension 4400 LCD screen, where& what do i need to edit?
[05:50] <Selrach> network card is irrelevant since it works fine
[05:50] <shadeofgrey> thats your proble,
[05:50] <Selrach> linuxnub: I know, but debian worked without a problem but ubuntu does not
[05:50] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: wiki SSE and SSE2
[05:50] <linuxnub> it just makes thngs easier for the nubs
[05:50] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: Ok, that is what I thought. No way I could code for the kernel, but I'll have a look at sse. And the next time I compile a kernel, I'll do it Friday afternoon, and hope it is done, when I come home Sunday night!?
[05:50] <Flannel> alecw1: You don't want to change permissions.  You want to use sudo to remove it.  You can open a sudo'd nautilus shell, and do whatever (don't change permissions on system files ever).  alt-f2, then `gksu nautilus`, and close that window as SOON as you're done.
[05:50] <shadeofgrey> ati vidfeo cards dont work well with any version of linux because ATI is communist and refduses to release stable drivers for linux use
[05:50] <wols> budji: nowhere. dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:50] <dr_willis> gotta love huge generalizations.. :)
[05:50] <enviouz> i disagree shadeofgrey
[05:50] <wols> shadeofgrey: don't talk such BS please
[05:51] <Selrach> shade: my card works fine with mandriva/debian
[05:51] <tritium> shadeofgrey: please, now, and watch the !enter too
[05:51] <andruk> dr_willis: hey, if the shoe fits
[05:51] <linuxnub> hmm wierd
[05:51] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: yea I was going to see about doing the compile on a network. so that it does not take all that long.
[05:51] <thufir007hawat12> I want to try ubuntu to get my ML-2510 samsung working
[05:51] <linuxnub> ubuntu should install much easier than the debs
[05:51] <Selrach> it does
[05:51] <alecw1> Thanks Flannel! :D
[05:51] <Selrach> but it does not boot properly
[05:51] <wols> !printing | thufir007hawat12
[05:51] <ubotu> thufir007hawat12: Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[05:51] <Selrach> i get dropped to command prompt
[05:52] <linuxnub> what kinda system selrach
[05:52] <shadeofgrey> wols, your saying there IS good ATI driver support in ubuntu?
[05:52] <Selrach> Athlon 64, ECS KN1 Lite, 1 GB ram
[05:52] <budji> @wols: the problem is at boot-time, right after grub...
[05:52] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ_: FB on folding, that is out of my league too. I'm into electronics hardware/radio stuff. Now, let me go look at SSE.
[05:52] <wols> shadeofgrey: yes. there is ati
[05:52] <Selrach> ATI video card
[05:52] <rbil> Selrach: but you're running Linux when you get to the command prompt?
[05:52] <wols> slurpee: and ati the company is not communist
[05:52] <Selrach> rbil: essentially, yes.
[05:52] <Selrach> just no GUI
[05:52] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: but I wanted to get in that too.
[05:52] <enviouz> my ati card works perfectly
[05:52] <shadeofgrey> there is ati support but it doesnt come close to nvidia
[05:52] <wols> Selrach: what videocard exactly and what drivers do you use for it?
[05:52] <rbil> Selrach: why don't you download the proprietary drivers for the ATI and install them?
[05:52] <dr_willis> Some of my ati cards work very well.. not the newer ones.. :) then again theres been issues with the newest nvidia cards..
[05:53] <shadeofgrey> isnt that true?
[05:53] <tritium> shadeofgrey: s/your/you're, s/there/their
[05:53] <MrOtacon> anyone played unreal 2004 on ubuntu? does it run well?
[05:53] <dr_willis> nvidia and ati BOTH need to get their linux support act together.
[05:53] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: Wanted, or want?
[05:53] <Selrach> wols: uh... lemme look it up i forget the exact number
[05:53] <alecw1> MrOtacon, I have the same question...
[05:53] <MrOtacon> dr_willis: +1 on that
[05:53] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: want
[05:53] <wols> Selrach: lspci
[05:53] <linuxnub> did it autodetect your hardware ok?
[05:53] <shadeofgrey> tritium, i dont understand what you just said to me.
[05:53] <MrOtacon> alecw1: :) - just unrarring the iso now
[05:53] <shadeofgrey> at all
[05:53] <dr_willis> I wish that Intel would come out with stand alone cards... and show ati and nvidia how to do linux support.
[05:53] <Selrach> lspci?
[05:53] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: Where are you, approx.?
[05:53] <tritium> shadeofgrey: just correcting your poor grammar
[05:54] <enviouz> theres new ati packages too but they arent nor will ever be put in the fiesty repos
[05:54] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: southern US
[05:54] <Zambezi> No! What should I do. I got my second kernelpanic. :-(
[05:54] <thufir007hawat12> ubotu thanks for the links.  it just stalls in cups in fedora 7 :(
[05:54] <Selrach> ah
[05:54] <Selrach> h
[05:54] <Zambezi> I run Dapper.
[05:54] <brucewang> Flannel,  what is the page that u just gave me?
[05:54] <wols> dr_willis: they will. but a) if they are any good (they tried it before) or b) have open drivers remains to be seen
[05:54] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: good, check out www.arrl.org
[05:54] <alecw1> Great, maybe you could help me out. :P I've got a few friends obsessed with the game, I'd like to run it with Linux. :) (MrOtacon)
[05:54] <wols> Zambezi: tell us what the kernel panic says. all of it
[05:54] <Flannel> brucewang: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[05:54] <Selrach> wols: Radeon X1600
[05:54] <Zambezi> thufir007hawat12, You know ubotu is a bot. :-P
[05:54] <wols> Selrach: what driver?
[05:54] <Selrach> but my card is from asus manufacturer
[05:54] <linuxnub> unreal runs great in linux btw
[05:55] <dr_willis> wols,  from what ive been reading.. Intel is planning on it.. and kicking booty.. but who knows if it will pan out.  Gee whatever happened to Matrox...
[05:55] <enviouz> well i was told that someting about it being a big change or something but theya re in the gutsy repos
[05:55] <shadeofgrey> tritium, my original question still applies...  is my bias against ati video cards misplaced?  is there truly GOOD ati video card drivers for ubuntu somewhere?
[05:55] <alecw1> Unreal 2004, linuxnub?
[05:55] <MrOtacon> alecw1: as soon as i get it running - i'll tell ya :) - i'm using info from here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=394706
[05:55] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: cool
[05:55] <linuxnub> yes it should
[05:55] <dr_willis> I rember when there wers several video card makers . :) seems like now theres just 3.
[05:55] <Selrach> wols: I tried the guide about ATI cards on the forums, but it doesnt change anything
[05:55] <shadeofgrey> tritium, everyone else ive talkesd to says ati support in ubuntu is dismal at best
[05:55] <alecw1> MrOtacon, linuxnub tells me it works great. :)
[05:55] <thufir007hawat12> zambezi heh. oh, then thanks to, err, wals for the links
[05:55] <PanzerMKZ_> dr_willis: 3
[05:55] <PanzerMKZ_> ?
[05:55] <MrOtacon> cool :D - i've been playin quake 3 all day :D
[05:55] <thufir007hawat12> my samsung stalls in fedora.  might it work in fedora?
[05:55] <wols> Selrach: answer my question. don't tell me stuff since you think I wanna hear it
[05:55] <tritium> shadeofgrey: asking your question in fine, but please stay away from gross generalities, and refrain from name-calling
[05:55] <enviouz> Selrach:  no 3d acceleration?
[05:55] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: n2diy is my call sign.
[05:55] <alecw1> Can I PM you with a question, MrOtacon?
[05:55] <linuxnub> it runs great for me but not on ubuntu lol
[05:55] <Zambezi> wols, It says host unreachable when I try to ping it. It froze during slocate *|grep .exe in screen. I stopped the coomand cause it took too long time and nothing happend.
[05:55] <santims> how do i get read/write access to a folder?
[05:55] <MrOtacon> alecw1: sure
[05:56] <dr_willis> PanzerMKZ_,  ati/nvidia/intel. Matrox i guess is a distant forth.. who else is even out there...
[05:56] <Selrach> wols: then what exactly are you wanting me to tell you?
[05:56] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy I kinda thought something like that
[05:56] <rbil> Selrach: what video driver is loading in xorg.conf?
[05:56] <wols> Selrach:scroll up the stuff witht he "?" at the end are questions
[05:56] <Selrach> rbil: I don't know I never checked... since I thought it just wanst working
[05:56] <linuxnub> for high performance you go with a source based distro such as Sabayon or Gentoo then you have no problems with high performance games like that
[05:57] <rbil> Selrach: I'd guess it is a video driver problem if you can get to a login prompt
[05:57] <alecw1> linuxnub, what are your system specs?
[05:57] <linuxnub> ubuntu is a serious resource hog ive found
[05:57] <tritium> linuxnub: even still, quite diminishing returns for all the effort
[05:57] <alecw1> MrOtacon, did you get my PM?
[05:57] <Selrach> my question though is, what is it killing when it boots up?
[05:57] <wols> linuxnub: blame gnome
[05:57] <linuxnub> nah Sabayon installs binary
[05:57] <rbil> Selrach: login and do ... less /etc/xorg.conf and see what driver it's trying to use
[05:57] <sasa> hey all...I have a rather simple question.....which program can I use to resize (cut) MP3 files. I also need to compress them
[05:57] <linuxnub> install = 20 minutes full system
[05:57] <MrOtacon> alecw1: no.. you have to be registered to pm... do /nickserv register then password
[05:57] <wols> Selrach: how can we tell, you think we are psychic? for this to answer there are logs
[05:57] <shadeofgrey> hasd anybody present successfully installed ubuntu on coreduo macbookpros?
[05:57] <tritium> linuxnub: still, very little performance gains
[05:57] <thufir007hawat12> hmm.  the ubuntu site claims that the 2510 works, can anyone confirm?
[05:57] <Selrach> okay okay sorry
[05:57] <shadeofgrey> i REALLY want to dual boot ubuntu really badly
[05:57] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: SSE may have to wait, this folding site looks similiar to the SETI projects, with distributed computing.
[05:57] <mobutu> sasa: if you want a graphical way for that, try 'audacity'
[05:57] <rbil> Selrach: killing what? only X isn't starting
[05:58] <alecw1> /n alecwh
[05:58] <Selrach> the last line before the prompt is Killed
[05:58] <Flannel> shadeofgrey: Jordan_U has.  He's AFK at the moment.
[05:58] <alecw1> I have a registered name, it's "alecwh"
[05:58] <linuxnub> well its enough of a performance gain that games run great on it but wont on binary distros
[05:58] <Selrach> comes up
[05:58] <alecw1> how do I change to it?
[05:58] <dr_willis> linuxnub,  ive not seen that documented anywhere.
[05:58] <wols> alecw1: you ghost the current alcwh nick
[05:58] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: it is exactly then same other then the search for aliens. more like curing cancer and alheimeraze
[05:58] <Selrach> well, I guess I should shutdown and check out this stuff
[05:58] <Selrach> err reboot
[05:58] <linuxnub> want me to document it for ya?
[05:58] <MrOtacon> do /nick then use that name - then /nickserv identify then ur password
[05:58] <rbil> Selrach: killing acpi, but not bringing down the system
[05:58] <Selrach> Oh
[05:58] <alecw1> It doesn't work.
[05:58] <Selrach> why would it kill ACPI?
[05:58] <alecw1>  /nick alecwh
[05:58] <Selrach> O_O
[05:59] <shadeofgrey> Flannel, hesd the only one you trust?
[05:59] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ: Yep, roger that.
[05:59] <internetrr> omg, my clock says its 1:56am, and I don't think its that late, the time.gov says its 10:00pm whats wrong?!?
[05:59] <linuxnub> proof is in how it performs for me
[05:59] <wols> alecw1: I told you what to do. but this is OT in here. ask #freenode or something
[05:59] <dr_willis> linuxnub,  im betting its more gentoo hype.. but i dont care either way.. i dont play games much.. and i dont plan on using gentoo.
[05:59] <MrOtacon> alecw1:  no space at start
[05:59] <tritium> linuxnub: no, that's not proof.  that's your experience.  For others, their experience may (and does) differ
[05:59] <Selrach> i'll BBL, i'll see if I can resolve these issues
[05:59] <wols> internetrr: what do you have your timezone set to?
[05:59] <Zambezi> wols, And now the servers CD started to blink, I pulled the box out to check on which channel it had (KVM-switch) and then it rebooted. :-S
[05:59] <alecw1> MrOtacon, it might just be easier to join "#randomness"
[05:59] <linuxnub> it aint Gentoo hype lol i hate Gentoo cuz of the 4 day installs
[05:59] <MrOtacon> lol - ok
[05:59] <mobutu> you know what i love doing in #ubuntu after a long day
[05:59] <brucewang> Flannel,  it says i dont have permissions to write to it still
[06:00] <mobutu> saying how great other linux dists are
[06:00] <dr_willis> linuxnub,  one example does not a 'proof' make. but this is all offtopic anyway.
[06:00] <linuxnub> and lets not forget the 20 hour world updates
[06:00] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: just to give you an example what the 500 cel does in 5 hours the p3 450 will do in one hour with sse helping
[06:00] <someone2005> yup..
[06:00] <GameSpot> hey
[06:00] <GameSpot> is this the official channel
[06:00] <GameSpot> for ubuntu linux
[06:00] <mobutu> also
[06:00] <Zambezi> wols, Okay, the problem is this: I can't use Feisty cause it won't find one of my harddrives.
[06:00] <Flannel> shadeofgrey: he's the only one I know about. I'm sure there are other though.
[06:00] <mobutu> a u t o m a t i x
[06:00] <DarkMageZ> GameSpot, yes it is.
[06:00] <linuxnub> gentoo sux but its great for higher performance
[06:00] <Flannel> !automatix | mobutu
[06:00] <ubotu> mobutu: 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
[06:00] <GameSpot> ty
[06:00] <internetrr> wols: America/North_Dakota/New_Salem I'm central time
[06:00] <GameSpot> I need some help, does anyone have any spare time to assist me
[06:00] <sasa> mobuty: thank you very much, I'm trying it now
[06:00] <linuxnub> my system absolutely screams with a gentoo kde install
[06:00] <GameSpot> its a fairly short question
[06:00] <agn0stic> !ask | GameSpot
[06:00] <ubotu> GameSpot: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:00] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  roger that, I bookmared the folding page, and now I'm off to google sse.
[06:01] <GameSpot> ty
[06:01] <someone2005> yea , says buy new computer some time...
[06:01] <tallen_> any suggestions to Firefox "Illegal instruction" on execute? Ubuntu Egdy AMD x64 (2.6.20-15-generic)
[06:01] <GameSpot> I added a new harddrive to my computer, im using ubuntu fiesty
[06:01] <linuxnub> im thinking same thing might be true for slackware installs too
[06:01] <dr_willis> linuxnub,  the benchmarks ive seen to not  give much of an improvement.. but to each their own.
[06:01] <GameSpot> when i type fdisk -l it says that my new harddrive has a partition named linux lvm
[06:01] <GameSpot> which makes no sense because i just installed the hd and i dindt make any partitions on it
[06:01] <GameSpot> is it a bug?
[06:01] <linuxnub> i think alot of it has to do with all the garbage ubuntu throws into a base install
[06:02] <GameSpot> no but
[06:02] <GameSpot> i just added this hd
[06:02] <GameSpot> ubuntu is on another hd
[06:02] <linuxnub> with gentoo or slacks you can install vanilla systems that just scream
[06:02] <GameSpot> anyone know whats wrong
[06:02] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  SSE brings up a lot of hits for the Shanghia Stock Exchange, suggestions to narrow the search?
[06:02] <Flannel> !enter | GameSpot
[06:02] <ubotu> GameSpot: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:02] <GameSpot> sorry
[06:03] <sasa> mobutu: thanks again
[06:03] <GameSpot> what does !enter do
[06:03] <GameSpot> ok I will retype that in one setence and maybe make it more clear
[06:03] <dr_willis> linuxnub,  so your argument boils down to gentoo not running a lot of services and stuff in the background basiclly makes it faster. Not the fact that its a source disrto. Or so it seems. But this is off topic here. so im dropping it.
[06:03] <DarkMageZ> GameSpot, under edgy wasn't there a disk management tool under system > administration? you'd beable to setup a new partition on the new drive using that.
[06:03] <andruk> in rhythmbox, i get an error when i try to play files "Resource busy or not available".  can i find out what other program is locking the file?
[06:03] <mobutu> i bet slackware is really fast
[06:03] <Flannel> GameSpot: If it's new, just reformat it and keep using it.
[06:03] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streaming_SIMD_Extensions
[06:03] <GameSpot> How do i reformat it using fdisk?
[06:03] <brucewang> Flannel,  it says i dont have permissions to write to it still
[06:03] <Flannel> mobutu: please take the offtopic discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic, or elsewhere.  Thanks.
[06:03] <dr_willis> mobutu,  not any faster then ubuntu from what ive seen
[06:03] <linuxnub> ya that is probably the case
[06:04] <someone2005> sound interesting...
[06:04] <dr_willis> GameSpot,  you use fdisk to set up partitions, not format.
[06:04] <mobutu> im kidding.  i bet everyone in this channel uses ubuntu
[06:04] <tallen_> I attempt to start Firefox from the console, it bombs with a core dump. Running Edgy on AMD64 (FX55). Any suggestions? I cant google so its a real bear to find out where to go.
[06:04] <Flannel> GameSpot: Use gparted, that's probably easier for you.
[06:04] <Evolution2> i just got wine but i think i dont have the latest version because i would like to use it for utorrent and WMP 11. iam running kubuntu 7.04
[06:04] <dr_willis> mobutu,  using 'linux mint' at the moment.
[06:04] <GameSpot> how would i format my second harddrive, then how would i merge it with my 1st hd so ubuntu can use it, so i can store movies etc on the secondary hd?
[06:04] <Flannel> brucewang: What's your fstab look like? (pastebin it)
[06:04] <someone2005> I should have installed that...
[06:04] <mobutu> Evolution2: i have successfully used uTorrent with really old versions of wine
[06:04] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  Roger, looking.
[06:05] <dr_willis> GameSpot,  dont 'merge' just partition/format/mount it to some /media/data dir or similer. is how id do it.
[06:05] <varun0> is there a way to query what version of a package I have installed?
[06:05] <linuxnub> i been trying to figure out how to strip out all the extra junk in ubuntu that the system doesnt need to run
[06:05] <GameSpot> see i dont know how to do that though
[06:05] <Flannel> GameSpot: Ironically, you'd use LVM to merge it.  As it is now, you'll just be able to add it somewhere.  Each partition will be a folder somewheree.
[06:05] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: helps with the math. great for video stuff.
[06:05] <GameSpot> i just installed linux yesterday and i never used it before
[06:05] <Evolution2> mobutu:i would like the latest version please
[06:05] <dr_willis> !fdisk
[06:05] <agn0stic> !fstab | GameSpot
[06:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fdisk - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:05] <ubotu> GameSpot: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[06:05] <dr_willis> !mount
[06:05] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[06:05] <andruk> GameSpot: what you want to do is install a dual boot system on the first hard drive, and use the second hard drive for storage?
[06:05] <Flannel> GameSpot: once it's formatted (with Gparted), go to System > Administration > disks and you should be able to specify where t omount it.
[06:05] <GameSpot> no i dont want a dual boot
[06:06] <andruk> in rhythmbox, i get an error when i try to play files "Resource busy or not available".  can i find out what other program is locking the file?
[06:06] <degreseven> has anyone here been able to get an xbox 1 controller working in ubuntu?
[06:06] <GameSpot> i just want to add the 2nd harddrive so ubuntu can read it
[06:06] <GameSpot> so i can use the second harddrive for storage
[06:06] <brucewang> Flannel, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27366/
[06:06] <alecw1> Can I partition an External Hard drive? (myBook)
[06:06] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  Ok, waiting for it to load. I'm surprised we haven't been asked to move this to OT, I guess we are entertaining the ops?
[06:06] <linuxnub> andruk : you can run top or ps aux in console to find out whats eating up your resources
[06:06] <agn0stic> GameSpot: http://rute.2038bug.com/index.html.gz this will help you if you want to learn your way around linux, and learn it well.
[06:07] <linuxnub> then sudo kill ####
[06:07] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: I would say it is something that is on topic. the fact that the linux kernel can use sse and such.
[06:07] <DarkMageZ> GameSpot, if you install gparted. if you then run it and confirm that your new harddrive is partitioned in the way you like it. then you can setup your fstab so that you'll beable to access the new drive @ every boot.
[06:07] <GameSpot> well see I run a server company, www.staminus.net and I need to install a second harddrive on it
[06:07] <rbil> GameSpot: man mkfs
[06:07] <GameSpot> im familiar with linux
[06:07] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  Of course, silly me! :)
[06:07] <GameSpot> but im running into problems for some reason
[06:08] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: just remember. the kernel code is out there.
[06:08] <tallen_> any help on the Firefox issue? Please?
[06:08] <linuxnub> you trying to burn an iso gamespot?
[06:08] <agn0stic> GameSpot: process of adding hard drive - make directory to mount it in (say /media/newdrive), add lines to /etc/fstab, mount
[06:08] <DarkMageZ> tallen_, what does "firefox --safe-mode" do?
[06:08] <Evolution2> can someone help ,me intall the new version of wine
[06:09] <GameSpot> im so confused
[06:09] <GameSpot> can someone talk to pm with me
[06:09] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: you into networking ?
[06:09] <Zambezi> Seriously. What should I chose when Edgy is unstable, when Dapper starts to kernelpanic for no reason (read unknown, might be cups and I need another cups cause the one in the repos doesn't work) and when Feisty doesn't find all the harddrives. I have big trouble and need advice.
[06:09] <GameSpot> Can anyone SSH into my computer and install the harddrive for me
[06:09] <brucewang> Flannel, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27366/
[06:09] <GameSpot> I will pay them through paypal
[06:09] <GameSpot> lol
[06:09] <GameSpot> im serious
[06:09] <GameSpot> can anyone SSH into my computer
[06:09] <tallen_> DarkMageZ: "Illegal instruction (core dumped)"
[06:09] <linuxnub> evolution2 : use Synaptic to get the latest wine
[06:09] <tritium> !enter > GameSpot (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:09] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  Just between this box and my test box.
[06:09] <GameSpot> ty
[06:09] <trend> hello
[06:10] <linuxnub> or apt-get
[06:10] <trend> how can I get ubuntu to sync date/time?
[06:10] <alecw1> How do I change my root password?
[06:10] <christian> Hello
[06:10] <andruk> linuxnub: pulseaudio, firefox-bin, rhythmbox are the sound-related ones
[06:10] <DarkMageZ> tallen_, do you have any other browsers you can temporaily use?
[06:10] <trend> i setup the daemon
[06:10] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: I built networks all the time. ubuntu server makes a great dumb file server.
[06:10] <tritium> !rootsudo > alecw1 (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:10] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: I just don't update that often
[06:10] <linuxnub> kill firefox then try it
[06:10] <tallen_> DarkMageZ: no, I guess I can install, eh, er, Links?
[06:10] <n2diy> trend: right click on your clock, and select adjust date and time.
[06:10] <GameSpot> tritium - can you SSH into my computer and install a new harddrive for me?
[06:10] <trend> i don't have gui installed.. only command line
[06:10] <Fathefner> do they make ubuntu for really really dumb people
[06:11] <GameSpot> why did they make linux so hard to use for the regular consumer
[06:11] <linuxnub> GameSpot : lol
[06:11] <GameSpot> i mean its good, but i understand why windows is more famous
[06:11] <mobutu> GameSpot: it's not hard.  what is wrong with your hard drive
[06:11] <DarkMageZ> tallen_, "sudo apt-get install epiphany-browser"
[06:11] <dr_willis> GameSpot,  'they' who. :)
[06:11] <andruk> GameSpot: trust me, for what it has to do, it is easier than windows
[06:11] <GameSpot> i mean u gotta type like 50 commands in terminal just to like.. make a folder?
[06:11] <rbil> GameSpot: u can easily do it yourself. Run gparted and create a partition on that drive and then format it ext3
[06:11] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  FB, I plan to DL Edubuntu which sets up a client server and thin terminals, I just don't have the hardware for the server yet, and shipit refused my request, so I need to DL it.
[06:11] <dr_willis> GameSpot,  linux isent a company.. its a project.
[06:12] <mobutu> GameSpot: right click, 'make new folder' ?
[06:12] <GameSpot> then whats novell
[06:12] <GameSpot> isnt that a company
[06:12] <linuxnub> GameSpot : mkdir
[06:12] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: how much bandwidth do you have?
[06:12] <agn0stic> GameSpot: novell is a company, yes
[06:12] <tritium> GameSpot: they don't make linux.  They sell a distribution.
[06:12] <tallen_> DarkMageZ: ah, excellent. Thanks I should be able to google it out from here.
[06:12] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  56k
[06:12] <brucewang> anybody, can you help me fix my fstab? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27366/    Pllllleeeeeaaaassseeee
[06:12] <andruk> bruceang: what is wrong?
[06:12] <dr_willis> GameSpot,  you fdisk the drive with gparted, or fdisk, format the partitons with mkfs (or gparted) then edit the /etc/fstab file to mount them where you want. Its well documented all over.
[06:12] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: yea I got about 20 dumb terminals so I am going to be trying it to
[06:12] <GameSpot> either way, in windows u just pop in a harddrive and it auto installs, in linux, u gotta type 100 commands in terminal just to see it
[06:13] <christian> I really love this
[06:13] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: where are you
[06:13] <PanzerMKZ_> ?
[06:13] <christian> ubuntu is so awesome
[06:13] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  I'm in the coal fields of Eastern PA.
[06:13] <DarkMageZ> tallen_, well. probably not. but you might beable to grab information on how to debug firefox.
[06:13] <christian> this is my first day
[06:13] <Evolution2> ok so i have wine but how d i run stuff like utorrent with it
[06:13] <dr_willis> GameSpot,  ive also had windows ask to 'format' a drive it thought was unformated.. but it wasent.. it just had another OS on it.. so windows killed it.  I perfer the linux way
[06:13] <rbil> GameSpot: just run gparted, like I said
[06:13] <tallen_> DarkMageZ: doh! "Illegal instruction (core dumped)" googly moogly...
[06:13] <agn0stic> andruk: what exactly is the problem?
[06:13] <tritium> GameSpot: no, you don't
[06:13] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: well if it where not that expensive I would snend you some hardware up there
[06:13] <wols> intelikey: and coukld be you told ubuntu your BIOS clock is set to UTC when it isn
[06:13] <GameSpot> i gotta switch back to windows, i cant even install my new harddrive what a waste of money
[06:13] <wols> isn't
[06:13] <DarkMageZ> tallen_, see. illegal instruction and core dump are such generic terms.
[06:13] <brucewang> andruk,  i cant write to an ntfs partition.. ive followed directions on the wiki
[06:13] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  I have _one_ phone company, and _one_ cable company.
[06:14] <linuxnub> GameSpot : HAL should autodetect your new drive
[06:14] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: yea I know what you mena
[06:14] <tallen_> DarkMageZ: no I mean when I use epiphany it core dumps as well.
[06:14] <GameSpot> it did
[06:14] <GameSpot> it detected my drive
[06:14] <Evolution2> ok so i have wine but how d i run stuff like utorrent with it
[06:14] <GameSpot> but it wont work
[06:14] <dr_willis> GameSpot,  yea..  in the time its taken you to discuss this.. i could of allready done it... do whatever you want.. learn to use linux.. or give up..
[06:14] <GameSpot> like i dont have more space to add files
[06:14] <agn0stic> GameSpot: read the link I sent you, will enlighten you as to the "magic" of linux
[06:14] <GameSpot> no im not giving up
[06:14] <GameSpot> but no one will help me
[06:14] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: you got a slot 1?
[06:14] <DarkMageZ> tallen_, oh. that's not cool. :(
[06:14] <christian> can someone direct me to the right instruction page for installing programs not on the install list?
[06:14] <WaltzingAlong> kban
[06:14] <GameSpot> every keeps saying stuff i have no clue what it means
[06:14] <brucewang> i am at wits end here
[06:14] <rbil> GameSpot: what error did u get when running gparted?
[06:14] <DarkMageZ> tallen_, "sudo apt-get install konqueror" ?
[06:14] <wols> christian: what program?
[06:14] <GameSpot> none
[06:14] <dr_willis> GameSpot,  for a new ext2/3 partition/filesystem i make a directory on the drive then  change the permissions on that directory so the USER i want to use it. has access to that dir.
[06:14] <GameSpot> i dont know hat gparted is
[06:15] <andruk> brucewang: so, the ntfs partition is the second harddrive?
[06:15] <dthacker-lt> Hi, I'm trying to build an internal dns server and I'm getting errors in the logs at startup.  If you could help, please look at http://pastebin.com/937226
[06:15] <GameSpot> i dont even have gparted
[06:15] <tallen_> DarkMageZ: I am wondering if its something with the video card driver (I have Nividia 7650GT)
[06:15] <mobutu> GameSpot: can you open a Terminal ?
[06:15] <christian> I have downloaded songbird for linux, but I don't know how to install it
[06:15] <GameSpot> yes
[06:15] <brucewang> dthacker-lt,  its an external
[06:15] <GameSpot> im in terminal now
[06:15] <mobutu> ok, what happens when you type "gparted &"
[06:15] <wols> christian: what format is it in the file?
[06:15] <brucewang> err andruk, its an external
[06:15] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: you got a slot 1 box?
[06:15] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  Go figure, cable TV was invented here, and I only have one provider!? Slot 1, not sure, have to check my DB. I have tons of hardware, but it is all ancient.
[06:15] <DarkMageZ> tallen_, well. your driver doesn't have any known issues like that. so it'd be best if you could aquire a backtrace from firefox.
[06:15] <cookie> hello guys
[06:15] <GameSpot> do i type sudo apt-get install gparted
[06:16] <GameSpot> to install it?
[06:16] <christian> well, I unzipped it into a folder
[06:16] <christian> was that wrong?
[06:16] <agn0stic> GameSpot: yes
[06:16] <mobutu> GameSpot: yes
[06:16] <rbil> GampeSpot: if it's not installed, do that
[06:16] <andruk> brucewang: oh, sorry, thats beyond me (i dont know too much)
[06:16] <cookie> CAN U PLS TELL ME HOW TO PUT FINGERPRINT READER DRIVER ON UBUNTU 6,10
[06:16] <cookie> ?
[06:16] <tritium> cookie: please don't use all caps
[06:16] <mobutu> cookie: IS THERE DANGER TO THE MANIFOLD ?
[06:16] <dr_willis> cookie,  not sure those are supported under ANY linux at this time.
[06:16] <cookie> ok
[06:16] <wols> GameSpot: you can. or you just can install it from the GUI where you normally install programs
[06:16] <brucewang> anybody, can you help me fix my fstab? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27366/    Pllllleeeeeaaaassseeee
[06:16] <linuxnub> !tar : christian
[06:16] <rickb|server> hello. a friend of mine install ubuntu.. Well is there a default password for the root, or when you install ubuntu from the live cd do you specify the password?
[06:16] <mobutu> GameSpot: you can private message me if you want about all this crap
[06:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tar : christian - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:16] <GameSpot> after i install gparted, then what should I do
[06:16] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: yea I know what you mean. I work in a computer junkyard. My workstation used to cost 10K$ now it is worth 50$
[06:16] <cookie> ok, sry for caps
[06:16] <GameSpot> ty
[06:16] <GameSpot> I will mobutu
[06:16] <tritium> !rootsudo > rickb|server (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:16] <dr_willis> brucewang,  it may be worth wile to  summerize the problem a bit.
[06:17] <thufir007hawat12> since https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrintersSamsung says it works with v6.06, is that what I should install?
[06:17] <wols> root | rickb|server
[06:17] <agn0stic> !tar | christian
[06:17] <ubotu> christian: Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (GNOME) or Ark (KDE) - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression
[06:17] <wols> !root | rickb|server
[06:17] <ubotu> rickb|server: 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
[06:17] <andruk> brucewang: a possibly easy way to fix it would be to boot into the liveCD, then check out the fstab entry for the external harddrive
[06:17] <tritium> wols: already taken care of
[06:17] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  Are you sure? It might cost you that to get ride of the monitor? :/
[06:17] <trend>  /etc/network/if-up.d/ntpdate is how you update your time :)
[06:17] <GameSpot> ok gparted install
[06:17] <linuxnub> rickb : if your addicted to su like me, then do sudo -i
[06:18] <GameSpot> After I install gparted, what command do i type to start the program, and then what do i do after that
[06:18] <DarkMageZ> tallen_, if you can sucessfully run konqueror webbrowser. then goto https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Backtrace and see if you can generate a backtrace of firefox.
[06:18] <agn0stic> GameSpot: now sudo gparted (if you've used any disk partitioner it should be familiar)
[06:18] <niuq> how do i register?
[06:18] <linuxnub> all sudo really does is prevent the nubs from destroying thier system
[06:18] <wols> niuq: /msg nickserv help. or ask #freenode or frnoode.org. not us
[06:18] <yellow_chicken> do firefox support rotation?  i want to rotate a webpage upside down
[06:18] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy; I am just talking of the tower. The monitor is sept and I have plenty of them if I need another. We don't throw them out. We send to a ecycler
[06:18] <andruk> GameSpot: gksudo gparted
[06:18] <GameSpot> NICE
[06:18] <GameSpot> it works
[06:18] <GameSpot> gksudo?
[06:18] <tritium> !enter
[06:18] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:18] <GameSpot> i only typed sudo
[06:19] <ali1234> linuxnub: it saves you having to remember two passwords also
[06:19] <agn0stic> linuxnub: nothings stopping you from "sudo rm -rf /"
[06:19] <andruk> thats fine
[06:19] <christian> After I decompressed it, I was able to run the program in the folder that it was in
[06:19] <niuq> wols: thx
[06:19] <mobutu> yellow_chicken: I don't think so
[06:19] <linuxnub> agn0stic : LOL
[06:19] <GameSpot> ok after now the GUI screen for gparted came up, what do i do now
[06:19] <yellow_chicken> mobutu: evince does
[06:19] <christian> but Im not sure that's an install... shouldn't it be located somewhere else?
[06:19] <brucewang> dr_willis,  I need to be able to write to my ntfs partition and it says i dont have permissions to write to it.. and no !ntfs instructions didnt work 4 me
[06:19] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  Yes, I have two slot 1 boxes this one, and the test box, but I think their bus speed is maxed out?
[06:19] <yellow_chicken> mobutu: know any altrnatves?
[06:19] <GameSpot> Gparted doesnt see my second harddrive, but fdisk does, what should i do now??
[06:20] <mobutu> yellow_chicken: you could take a screenshot and rotate it!
[06:20] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: yea I bet it is. but what about say a p3 600 or so
[06:20] <christian> holy crap, I can't keep up with all these conversations
[06:20] <dr_willis> brucewang,  normally its just a matter of the proper mount options/entry in the fstab file.
[06:20] <GameSpot> oh nvm, gparted sees my harddrive
[06:20] <GameSpot> what should i do
[06:20] <dr_willis> !info ntfs-write
[06:20] <ubotu> Package ntfs-write does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[06:20] <PanzerMKZ_> christian: don't keep up with them all just keep up with the one that you are in
[06:20] <dr_willis> !info ntfs-config
[06:20] <ubotu> ntfs-config: Enable/disable write support for any NTFS devices. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.5.5-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 41 kB, installed size 432 kB
[06:20] <andruk> GameSpot: you may have already done this, but you have to change the hard drive being operated on up in the upper right hand corner
[06:20] <dr_willis> brucewang,  i belive i jsut had to install/run ntfs-config and it set that up for me on my last few feisty installs.
[06:20] <christian> that's what I mean, cant tell whose in my conversation
[06:21] <GameSpot> i did
[06:21] <yellow_chicken> mobutu: i want ot rotate x chat, i am 90 degrss off right now, any my speelling is off\?
[06:21] <GameSpot> andruk and now i did this
[06:21] <wiglaf> How do I enable my cardbus wifi adaptor in feisty?
[06:21] <PanzerMKZ_> christian: see you now know when I am talking to you
[06:21] <christian> except yours is yellow to mw
[06:21] <christian> yes
[06:21] <brucewang> dr_willis,  did that already... heres the pastebin  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27366/
[06:21] <GameSpot> i clicked on the old partition on my new harddrive, then right clicked, and i selected format to ex3 type
[06:21] <christian> how do you do that?
[06:21] <agn0stic> christian: that's why we type out names, or use PMs - it's busy tonight
[06:21] <ali1234> wiglaf: is it a broadcom?
[06:21] <GameSpot> is that correct?
[06:21] <tritium> christian: use nicks, then.
[06:21] <wiglaf> ali: DLink DWL-G650
[06:21] <tritium> !enter | GameSpot (please, for the umpteenth time)

[06:21] <PanzerMKZ_> christian: you see how I put your name at the front. that is why it is yellow. that is how you know someone is talking to you
[06:21] <wiglaf> I'm pretty sure it's an Atheros chip
[06:21] <agn0stic> GameSpot: yes, if you want to use ext3 - (fine for storage)
[06:21] <GameSpot> sorry
[06:22] <christian> cool
[06:22] <christian> thanks
[06:22] <christian> sorry i'm such a noob
[06:22] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: like the other day I was looking for a set of slo1 1gig/133 procs
[06:22] <agn0stic> christian: everyone's a noob sometimes =)
[06:22] <GameSpot> ok, so i dont have to delete the old partition on the new harddrive right? I can just right click and select format to ext3 and it will auto delete and format to ext3 correct?
[06:22] <andruk> christian: we all started out as noobs
[06:22] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: well I blew up the server they where in so I got the procs
[06:22] <andruk> christian, well, i still am...
[06:22] <trend> thanks guys .. nite
[06:22] <agn0stic> GameSpot: yes, or you can do it manually
[06:22] <brucewang> everybody just gives up on me :(
[06:22] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  This box is maxed out at 333 mhz, and I'm sure it's sister would be too. I do have some rebuilds in the basement, that might support that CPU, but I don't even know if the are bootable. The where rescued at the curb.
[06:22] <GameSpot> now the flags for the new partitions
[06:22] <christian> andruk: oops i exited on accident
[06:23] <agn0stic> GameSpot: I assume you're sure there's nothing you want on it
[06:23] <GameSpot> are boot,lvm - is that correct?
[06:23] <PanzerMKZ_> christian: don't worry mate. you will become a pro
[06:23] <GameSpot> no there isnt
[06:23] <ali1234> wiglaf: check dmesg and lspci to figure out what chipset it uses
[06:23] <jettred2001> what is Atlantic Designer?
[06:23] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: noprob.
[06:23] <wiglaf> Ali: thanks, just a sec
[06:23] <GameSpot> agn0stic, its done formatting, the flags on it are boot and lvm, are those the right flags
[06:23] <agn0stic> GameSpot: I can only type so fast, sir.
[06:23] <GameSpot> sorry
[06:23] <christian> i was trying to copy someone's name and I think I accidentally brought them up in private.  So i got nervous and tried to close the private and shut it all down by mistake
[06:23] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: it is just weird to see all those procs and such. I asked around one day for a amd proc and I got a 2.4gig for free
[06:24] <dthacker-lt> jettred2001: it's an app to design game boards for Atlantic, which is a clone of Monopoly
[06:24] <intelikey> i'm having trubble locating a package for dapper. "Search string 'libmodplug0c2' not found"  any clue-by-four on that ?
[06:24] <PanzerMKZ_> christian: see you are learning something
[06:24] <qnyc> jettred2001, board designer for monopoly clone atlantik?
[06:24] <jettred2001> ok
[06:24] <ali1234> christian: you using gaim? press tab to complete a person's name...
[06:24] <ali1234> (probably other clients too)
[06:24] <tritium> (most clients)
[06:24] <PanzerMKZ_> christian; also I am guessing your nick is not registered so you would not have been alble to speak to them
[06:24] <agn0stic> GameSpot: You don't need boot if you don't want to boot from it. You probably want to set user and auto. But frankly, the default flags should be fine (if I remember correctly - someone slap me if I'm wrong). Just remember to set a mount point (directory) for it
[06:24] <christian> andruk: ok, forgive me for asking again.  Can you direct me to a site that explains how to install a downloaded program?
[06:24] <brucewang> anybody, can you help me fix my fstab? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27366/    Pllllleeeeeaaaassseeee

[06:25] <brucewang> sorry
[06:25] <newbuntu> finished installing Ubuntu:  X-Server won't start :(   IO-APIC error msg.  I tried adding 'linux noapic' to boot sequence (as per Enviouz), but it doesn't work  :(
[06:25] <WaltzingAlong> brucewang: what seems wrong?
[06:25] <crimsun> intelikey: http://preview.tinyurl.com/2vucjc  (i386)
[06:25] <GameSpot> SHIT
[06:25] <tritium> GameSpot: watch the language, please
[06:25] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  Yes, you'd be suprised what you can get for the asking. My radio gang meets on the air weekly, and we list stuff in our swap and shop segment, and for the price of a car ride, loads of stuff is available for free. Hams hate to throw stuff away.
[06:25] <vexati0n> anyone have problems using Nautilus to write to CIFS shares on a Vista/WS2k8 box?
[06:25] <GameSpot> now i deleted the partition, and i had to make a new one, and now the LVM flag is gone
[06:25] <GameSpot> how do i add new flags??
[06:25] <christian> panzerMKZ_: I'm in XChat
[06:26] <andruk> christian: do you know what window manager you are using?  (are there two start bars or one?)
[06:26] <agn0stic> Related to brucewang, what is up with the UUID stuff in his fstab? I've never seen that
[06:26] <brucewang> WaltzingAlong,  i can write to my ntfs partition... and please dont just tell me !ntfs (when i try it says i dont have permissions)
[06:26] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: yea I know what you mena. I have been to the local ham fest.
[06:26] <agn0stic> GameSpot: It doesn't matter.
[06:26] <christian> I had trouble figuring out gaim yet
[06:26] <PanzerMKZ_> christian: cool
[06:26] <brucewang> agn0stic,  i have no clue thats why i need help
[06:26] <andruk> christian: do you know what window manager you are using?  (are there two start bars or one?)
[06:26] <intelikey> crimsun that's i386  i need amd64
[06:26] <agn0stic> brucewang: me neither, I've never seen that.
[06:27] <ali1234> agn0stic: UUIDs are used so your fstab doesnt have a fit when drives get moved around - especially useful with usb/firewire storage
[06:27] <dr_willis> brucewang,  so you unmounted the disk and remounted it with 'mount /media/sdb1' yet?
[06:27] <intelikey> crimsun sorry for not specifying that.
[06:27] <christian> andruk: there is a bar on top and bottom.  It's ubuntu feisty fawn with the human theme
[06:27] <crimsun> http://preview.tinyurl.com/2wj8ol
[06:27] <GameSpot> agn0stic, should i select primary partition or extended
[06:27] <agn0stic> ali1234: yeah, I just checked mine, and they were there. Is this new with feisty?
[06:27] <brucewang> dr_willis,  no i have not tried that
[06:27] <intelikey> crimsun thank you.
[06:27] <dr_willis> brucewang,  as a test see if the root user can write to it 'sudo touch /media/sda1 This_is_a_Test'
[06:27] <agn0stic> GameSpot: If you just want one big partition, primary
[06:27] <dr_willis> brucewang,  if you allready had it mounted the fstab will NOT change it untill you remount it.
[06:27] <andruk> christian: okay, then it should be as easy as clicking System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager
[06:27] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  Cool, you can find a lot of "stuff" at those. Ever been to the Trenton State Computer Fest.?
[06:27] <ali1234> agn0stic: no, it's been around for a while
[06:27] <christian> panzerMKZ_:is gaim better?
[06:28] <WaltzingAlong> pidgin?
[06:28] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: no. I don't travel much.
[06:28] <WaltzingAlong> brucewang: have you tried ntfs-3g instead?
[06:28] <ali1234> agn0stic: couldn't say when exactly, i havnt had to touch fstab since i started using ubuntu
[06:28] <agn0stic> ali1234: huh. I haven't used an auto-generated fstab in a while. I'll do some research
[06:28] <andruk> WaltzingAlong: the new gaim
[06:28] <PanzerMKZ_> christian: I like gaim some. I have mIRC for my IRC stuff
[06:28] <christian> andruk:i've played in that a few times, but I'm bot sure I'm using it correctly.
[06:28] <brucewang> WaltzingAlong,  i have ntfs-3g and not fuse thats another problem i saw in there
[06:29] <GameSpot> agn0stic, The new partition is made, its in ex3 mode with no flags though, how do i go from here?
[06:29] <christian> andruk: i got it open again
[06:29] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy; just around here in the south. AL
[06:29] <GameSpot> also, it says my i bought a 200gig hd, but gparted is only saying its 186gigs, even though i formatted it and its empty, whats wrong?
[06:29] <christian> PanzerMKZ:i used mIRC back in the day on winders (country pronunciation)
[06:29] <UbuntuServerUser> Is it recommended to use Swat for Samba?
[06:29] <brucewang> im pouring the whiskey on pretty thick after 15 hours just trying to watch a stupid bin/cue kvcd
[06:30] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: swat?
[06:30] <wiglaf> I got the following message, and it may be causing my cardbus bridge (which was moved from PCI Bus #02 to Bus #06) problems :  PCI: Bus #03 (-#06) is hidden behind transparent bridge #02 (-#02) (try 'pci=assign-busses')
[06:30] <agn0stic> GameSpot: 186 gigs is correct. there's some funk with the meaning of mega, kilo, and gigabytes
[06:30] <andruk> christian: okay, so it loads packages you have installed, those with green boxes by them are installed, those with white (unmarked) boxes are not installed.  click on a box and a little menu will popup, you can install/reinstall/uninstall/completely-remove packages
[06:30] <UbuntuServerUser> Or what are your guys's expericces with it
[06:30] <tritium> UbuntuServerUser: not if you have a complicated configuration for samba
[06:30] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Swat.
[06:30] <ali1234> brucewang: i have watched a vcd image using vlc, without burning to disc
[06:30] <GameSpot> agn0stic, now its saying that the partition has 3gig used, what is used in the partition, i just made it, now it dropped frim 186gigs free to 183gigs?
[06:30] <dr_willis> ali1234,  heh - i was JUST about to say the same thing.
[06:30] <dr_willis> :)
[06:30] <christian> andruk: I can't find the package that I've downloaded though
[06:30] <brucewang> ali1234,  my vlc is broken.. i spent a few hours trying to get help on that too
[06:31] <UbuntuServerUser> tritium I'm just trying to setup a simple share to setup the computer running ubuntu server as aserver...you suggest running swat then?
[06:31] <ali1234> brucewang: broken? did you drop it?
[06:31] <tritium> UbuntuServerUser: it would be your choice, really.
[06:31] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: then just setup samba
[06:31] <UbuntuServerUser> For backup, maybe users IDK yet
[06:31] <mobutu> GameSpot: that's going to happen in any operating system.  there's stuff like partition table and block sizes that takes up that 3 gigs
[06:31] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  Roger S.AL, I was in Birmingham for the first time, back in 2001, nice city. Getting ready to send a link for the TSCF.
[06:31] <newbuntu> finished installing Ubuntu:  X-Server won't start :(   IO-APIC error msg.  I tried adding 'linux noapic' to boot sequence (as per Enviouz), but it doesn't work  :(
[06:31] <dr_willis> UbuntuServerUser,  you may want to install the 'samba-doc' package and read the 2 included using samba books.
[06:31] <UbuntuServerUser> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba
[06:31] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: yea that is where I am
[06:31] <agn0stic> GameSpot: I don't have any idea dude. Have you been clicking things without understanding what it means, or what? I can't understand why you're having so much trouble with gparted. I haven't touched it in awhile, I'll fire it up and look at it's interface.
[06:31] <UbuntuServerUser> Is that a good resource?
[06:31] <tallen_> DarkMageZ: oh https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/60236, thanks for your assistance.
[06:31] <tritium> UbuntuServerUser: yes, the wiki is generally a good resource
[06:32] <GameSpot> ok now everything with the partition is done, my new harddrive has a ext3 partition called /dev/sdb1 - what do i do from here to adding it into ubuntu so i can use it to store movies etc
[06:32] <dr_willis> GameSpot,  edit the fstab and have it mount to some place. like /media/storage
[06:32] <UbuntuServerUser> tritium, OK the only thing I don't like about it is I don't know when to use CLI because its kind of both
[06:32] <imbecile> ali1234, you want a pastebin of the error?
[06:32] <agn0stic> GameSpot: did you set a mount point for it in gparted? If not, I think it mounts under /media/sdb1 or /mnt/sdb1
[06:32] <GameSpot> mobutu, but its a new harddrive, no operating system on it yet, its a storage drive that i just made a new partition on
[06:32] <ali1234> imbecile: from vlc? sure
[06:32] <UbuntuServerUser> there should be a CLI section and a GUI sectin
[06:32] <GameSpot> so i dont understand what it taking up the 3 gigs on the new partition
[06:32] <dr_willis> GameSpot,  i always set up a directory on the drives and chown it to be owned by the user i want accessing the drive.
[06:32] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  Ok, here is the link, they call it the Trenton Computer Fest, but it is actually the Trentor State CF: http://www.answers.com/topic/trenton-computer-festival-1?cat=technology
[06:33] <GameSpot> dr_willis,  i only have 2 accts on this pc, mine and root
[06:33] <dr_willis> GameSpot,  it a 300gb drive?
[06:33] <GameSpot> how do i make it so both accounts can access the root
[06:33] <dr_willis> GameSpot,  so make a dir for 'mine' and chown it for 'mine'
[06:33] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: seems to me swat would be overkill for a simple file server
[06:33] <andruk> christian: thats right
[06:33] <GameSpot> Its a 200gb hd from what it says on the package, but it is only showing up as 186 gig free
[06:33] <Flannel> GameSpot: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount  and then fstab (which is how thigns get mounted permanantly),  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab
[06:33] <GameSpot> not sure why thats ahppening
[06:33] <PanzerMKZ_> christian: you getting the hang of it?
[06:33] <dr_willis> GameSpot,  the user has no NEED to access the 'root' of the drive. just have the single  directory on the drive call it 'minedata' or similer.
[06:33] <Evolution2> how do i run wine to run utorrent
[06:33] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: so what else you into?
[06:33] <mobutu> GameSpot: that's common  . read http://storageadvisors.adaptec.com/2006/03/03/i-lost-a-terabyte/
[06:33] <andruk> christian: you need to open the package you downloaded
[06:33] <dr_willis> Evolution2,  wine utorrent.exe
[06:34] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ ok then....thanks for input, I'm just used to GUI's and a web GUI sounds nice....is there a sort of all in one webGUI for ubuntu server?
[06:34] <Evolution2> in konsole?
[06:34] <andruk> christian: what type of file did you dl?
[06:34] <PanzerMKZ_> Evolution2: check out native linux torrent
[06:34] <mobutu> GameSpot: drive manufacturers dont lie, it's just stretching the truth. you're not missing anything.
[06:34] <dr_willis> Evolution2,  i always ask 'where else ya going to type that' :)
[06:34] <GameSpot> ok, how do i make it so this new storage drive can be accessible to my account, HOME, and the root account
[06:34] <calc> GameSpot: 200gb hard drive makers spec is 186GB everyone else spec, or also now known as GiB
[06:34] <dr_willis> Evolution2,  no one has ever came up with a good answer. heh.
[06:34] <christian> well, I unzipped it and deleted the original download
[06:34] <GameSpot> i have enabled root just for advanced purposes
[06:34] <agn0stic> GameSpot: 1 megabyte is 1024 kilobytes, not 1000. That's why it's showing up as less (I do believe). The package says 200, but it's not really. It's 2000 megs
[06:34] <dr_willis> Evolution2,  there are a great many decent native linux torrent apps also.
[06:34] <newbuntu> finished installing Ubuntu:  X-Server won't start :(   IO-APIC error msg.  I tried adding 'linux noapic' to boot sequence (as per Enviouz), but it doesn't work  :(
[06:34] <Flannel> GameSpot: Gigabytes vs Gibibytes.  200*1 000 000 000 = 186 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024
[06:34] <andruk> christian: that means you probably need to compile it
[06:34] <wiglaf> dmesg tells me there is a card in slot 0, but lspci only detects the bridge...how do I get it to read the card?
[06:34] <christian> yikes
[06:34] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: just add the user. once you get samba installed then smbpasswd -a (user name) at the cli
[06:35] <Flannel> GameSpot: there are no "advanced purposes" that require the root user.
[06:35] <andruk> christian: what package did you download?
[06:35] <UbuntuServerUser> k thanks Panzer
[06:35] <GameSpot> Flannel,  just for fun i enabled it lol
[06:35] <wols> newbuntu: what is your /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
[06:35] <Evolution2> yes, it tell me "module not found"
[06:35] <imbecile> ali1234, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27367/
[06:35] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: then smbpasswd -e (user) name. the first one adds that user. the second enables the user
[06:35] <calc> Flannel: except few things use the new redefined Gigabytes other than hard drive makers
[06:35] <ali1234> wiglaf: sounds bad? lspci should detect the card
[06:35] <Airwulf> hey
[06:36] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  Camping, hiking, bicycling, radio, radio, public service radio, feeding my food addiction, etc...
[06:36] <GameSpot> i enabled root because i want to feel like im the owner of my pc, i dont want to use a secondary account, I want to feel like I am the god of my pc and it will worship me and i have full root access to all its private secret datas and commands
[06:36] <christian> andruk: songbird... tar.gz
[06:36] <dr_willis> GameSpot,  i make a dir on the drive. (called willis-data) 'sudo mkdir /media/data/willis-data' for my user,   then chown it.. 'sudo chown willis.willis /media/data/willis-data'   , then user willis cam access that directory however he wants.  make a link from it to his /home/willis/data dir if you want.
[06:36] <wiglaf> ali1234: that's what I told it to do...ha
[06:36] <Flannel> calc: oh, I'm well aware of that.  But, it's the stupid things we have to live with.
[06:36] <PanzerMKZ_> Evolution2: try bittorrent. or rtorrent at the command line
[06:36] <calc> Flannel: gigabytes for the first 50 years or so meant 2^30
[06:36] <UbuntuServerUser> Evolution2: try Transmission
[06:36] <GameSpot> dr_willis, i cant even access the drive yet because i havent added it into ubuntu
[06:36] <Airwulf> how can I set in nautilus that .tm documents are associated (opened) with texmacs?
[06:36] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: cool. yea I know what you mean being a foodie is
[06:36] <dr_willis> GameSpot,  the root stuff is there to protect you from yourself for the most part.
[06:36] <newbuntu> wols: how do I access it ?
[06:36] <GameSpot> im not sure how to do that
[06:36] <dr_willis> GameSpot,  edit the fstab and mount it somewhere...
[06:36] <Flannel> GameSpot: and you're going to break it.  There is NO reason to be root.  At all.  Let alone for general purpose thigns.
[06:36] <agn0stic> GameSpot: Oh my. That is a bad thing. Root (and sudo) exists to protect yourself from yourself, so it asks you for a password if you try to do something silly like delete your root directory
[06:36] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: you get those two commands?
[06:36] <wiglaf> ali1234: I got this message from dmesg, though : 'PCI: Bus #03 (-#06) is hidden behind transparent bridge #02 (-#02) (try 'pci=assign-busses')'
[06:36] <andruk> christian: i wouldnt install many files from downloads unless you know what youre doing.  use synaptic.  ill walk you through it
[06:36] <mobutu> Evolution2: what's your wine + utorrent error ?
[06:37] <agn0stic> GameSpot: never, never, never mess around with root unless you know exactly what you're doing
[06:37] <agn0stic> GameSpot: and you don't
[06:37] <MrOtacon> Evolution2: I use qbittorrent - its really cool
[06:37] <GameSpot> say well i have 7 computers and this is my old one im testing linux on
[06:37] <Evolution2> so wait i cant use wine? because i was going to use it for windows media player
[06:37] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  Yea, I tried to kick the food, but that is as hard, if not harder, then cigs.
[06:37] <GameSpot> so i really dont care if i explode this pc
[06:37] <Evolution2> wine 0.9.33
[06:37] <christian> andruk: great, thanks
[06:37] <UbuntuServerUser> @ panzerMKZ_ i'm setting up a share first, how would I setup a share on a second HDD
[06:37] <Evolution2> and its tell me module not found in konsole
[06:37] <ali1234> wiglaf: never seen owt like that, but it sounds like it may be something to do with the problem, if the card is not seen, it is hidden, right?
[06:37] <fwp> i've got some problems with ssh being slow in 7.10
[06:37] <mobutu> Airwulf: right click on the document , "Properties" -> "Open with"
[06:37] <wiglaf> ali1234: right
[06:37] <GameSpot> OK LETS MOVE ON
[06:37] <Flannel> fwp: #ubuntu+1 for Gutsy support, thanks
[06:37] <mecfs4> Greetings from Adelaide Australia
[06:37] <fwp> Flannel: why is that ?
[06:38] <ali1234> imbecile: run vlc using a video driver other than gl
[06:38] <MrOtacon> Evolution2: do you want to just try qbittorrent instead of utorrent?
[06:38] <mobutu> Evolution2: windows media player uses a lot of internal windows stuff that wine doesn't emulate well, give up on that
[06:38] <Flannel> fwp: because it's not released yet.  Development versions have their own sets of issues.
[06:38] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: well with ubuntu just make the folder on the second drive and then right click and share out
[06:38] <wiglaf> ali1234: further down in dmesg, it tells me that the cardbus bridge was moved from #02 to #06...so I just need help reassigning the bridges, I guess
[06:38] <christian> andruk: OK, I've archived the folder again to a tar.gz
[06:38] <GameSpot> I have created a partition on my new harddrive which I will be using for storage purpose. The new partition is ext3 and is called /dev/sdb1 - How do I add this and mount it so i can start to store music/movies on this new harddrive?
[06:38] <wols> newbuntu: by looking into /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[06:38] <imbecile> ali1234,  it wont play with another video driver :(
[06:38] <Evolution2> ok
[06:38] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: then just use those two commands to add and enable users
[06:38] <agn0stic> !fstab | GameSpot
[06:38] <ubotu> GameSpot: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[06:38] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ I'm using ubuntu Server CLI and this is not easy :(
[06:38] <dr_willis> GameSpot,  edit the fstab file. create a new entry for the new drive using the existing lines as examples.
[06:38] <PanzerMKZ_> oh
[06:38] <andruk> christian: just ignore the downloaded file.  we can install songbird through synaptic
[06:38] <Evolution2> but yeah utorrent and itunes would be great
[06:38] <Airwulf> mobutu, that's what i know. But I want to associate it with a symbol and that it will automatically open it with texmacs on double click. like for example .pdf files
[06:38] <GameSpot> i dont know what you are talking about
[06:39] <GameSpot> lol
[06:39] <andruk> christian: that is what i highly suggest doing
[06:39] <dr_willis> GameSpot,  go to /etc/fstab EDIT THAT FILE
[06:39] <agn0stic> GameSpot: Follow the link! Sheesh!
[06:39] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: well then go to I think /etc/samba/smb.conf
[06:39] <Flannel> GameSpot: Read the links ubotu (and myself) gave you.
[06:39] <GameSpot> how do i go there
[06:39] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ using https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba and I get smbfs first then mount second drive right?
[06:39] <newbuntu> wols:  It's VERY long with a few error mgs, but at the end it says:   Fatal server error:
[06:39] <newbuntu> no screens found
[06:39] <MrOtacon> Evolution2: Here is the link for it http://qbittorrent.sourceforge.net/
[06:39] <MrOtacon> Evolution2: works fine in ubuntu
[06:39] <agn0stic> GameSpot: Google, do you use it? Google fstab how to
[06:39] <GameSpot> what do i type in terminal to access the fstab and to add my new harddrive into the configuration
[06:39] <wols> newbuntu: I need the long part
[06:39] <dr_willis> i think its time for some Linux 101 reading/tutorials.
[06:39] <christian> andruk: OK, I have synaptic open
[06:39] <GameSpot> wow why not just tell me here
[06:39] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: you need food to servive
[06:39] <wols> the last stuff is irrelevant. it's not the real error
[06:39] <GameSpot> i had no reason to come here them
[06:39] <mobutu> Airwulf: i missed a lot of scrollback.  did you try what i suggested ?
[06:39] <Flannel> GameSpot: Read the links.  They'll tell you everything you need to know.
[06:39] <GameSpot> i could of just gone to google
[06:39] <agn0stic> GameSpot: "sudo vi /etc/fstab"
[06:39] <Evolution2> does it matter i have kubuntu
[06:39] <newbuntu> Fatal server error: no screens found
[06:40] <GameSpot> vi?
[06:40] <fwp> Flannel: I have the same problem with 7.04 too
[06:40] <dr_willis> GameSpot,  qwe have been.. and you just say 'i dont understand' you need to learn some very basic basics..
[06:40] <tovella> GameSpot: which version of ubuntu are you using?
[06:40] <wols> agn0stic: don't tell people in here to use vi please
[06:40] <GameSpot> fiesty
[06:40] <fwp> ever since I installed ssh is slow
[06:40] <calc> adaptec article is wrong in that hard drive makers would still use round numbers for disk capacity if they had to use real gigabytes instead of their reformulated ones, they would just allow a little more storage during the design phase
[06:40] <GameSpot> 7.04
[06:40] <dr_willis> GameSpot,  it pays to google WHILE you are here.
[06:40] <newbuntu> wols:  where and how do I send it to you ?
[06:40] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  Beer is food!
[06:40] <agn0stic> wols: yeah that's a good idea actually
[06:40] <MrOtacon> Evolution2: nope - i have both kde and gnome and it runs fine in both
[06:40] <dr_willis> and ask for clarification on parts you dont understand.
[06:40] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: well you have to have the second drive in the os. smbfs is not going to do you anygood til you get the second drive where you can see it local
[06:40] <fwp> and I removed the GSSAPI stuff in /etc/ssh/ssh_config
[06:40] <GameSpot> OK how do i fstab in terminal to add my newly partitioned harddrive
[06:40] <Evolution2> ok
[06:40] <agn0stic> wols: that's mapped to "edit fstab" in my brain
[06:40] <Bird> Can someone help me with a boot problem?
[06:40] <MrOtacon> Evolution2: just dont use ktorrent... its a bunch of garbage
[06:40] <wiglaf> What can I break by reassigning PCI Busses? and how do I do it safely?
[06:40] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: barcardi is better then beer
[06:40] <MrOtacon> imo
[06:40] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  Beer is a sandwich in a can!
[06:40] <dr_willis> GameSpot,  with the editor you like to use.. you edit the /etc/fstab file
[06:40] <calc> it wouldn't be a 232.83 GB drive they would make a real 250GB fit if they were to use the 2^30 instead, that difference in capacity is so minor they could make it work
[06:40] <tovella> GameSpot: in that case, udev should take care of it for you.
[06:40] <mary-kate> ok...i got a question...i had a forgin IP connect to my ubuntu machine...and since then it's been locking up on me...is this a bug? or did somebody mess it up somewhere?
[06:40] <Comrade-Sergei> what does it mean when all my KDE based programs say "cannot talk to klauncher"?
[06:40] <Evolution2> so IYO what is the best torrent Client
[06:40] <GameSpot> wow please talk in english
[06:41] <GameSpot> i have no clue what you guys are saying
[06:41] <wols> wiglaf: how can you reassing pci busses in the first place? except by buying new hardware?
[06:41] <Evolution2> this is for anyone
[06:41] <blackace11> may i get some help with qjoypad? i have already installed the drivers for my xbox 360 gamepad
[06:41] <mary-kate> i use VNC and had ports open so i can connect from anywhere in the world
[06:41] <mobutu> Evolution2: i like uTorrent
[06:41] <calc> but they couldn't be bothered since no one big enough called them on it long ago
[06:41] <newbuntu> wols: how do I send it to you ?
[06:41] <dr_willis> GameSpot, what part.. "editor" ?
[06:41] <wiglaf> wols: with pci=assign-busses
[06:41] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ how might I be able to do that via CLI? i don't even know where it is or if its mounted
[06:41] <PanzerMKZ_> Evolution2: I use rtorrrent
[06:41] <wols> !paste | newbuntu
[06:41] <ubotu> newbuntu: 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)
[06:41] <wiglaf> wols: or so says dmesg, at any rate
[06:41] <wols> wiglaf: why would you do such a thing?
[06:41] <tovella> GameSpot: click on Places, then Computer.
[06:41] <Bird> Anybody?  help with boot problem?
[06:41] <Airwulf> mobutu, That's what I know already. I want to associate it with a special texmacs symbol and that it is automatically opened with texmacs on double click
[06:41] <MrOtacon> Evolution2: the best imho is utorrent... but qbittorrent is my closley followed second choic - which i am using in ubuntu because i dont want to have to wine utorrent
[06:41] <GameSpot> HOW DO I open fstab in the terminal and mount my new harddrive and add it into the configuration for god sakes
[06:41] <wiglaf> wols: dmesg told me to
[06:41] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: you would have to check /etc/fstab
[06:41] <foose12> comrade-segei: i think you need to install kubuntu
[06:41] <illusin1> How can I move my ubuntu installation to another hard drive (it's currently installed on an external drive which is very slow)?
[06:41] <Evolution2> how come wine tells me module not found for utorrent
[06:41] <wols> wiglaf: ask your real question then
[06:42] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: see if it is in there
[06:42] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  Rum doesn't have nearly the nutrients that beer does. Add home brewing to my interests.
[06:42] <MrOtacon> GameSpot: sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[06:42] <tovella> GameSpot: you may not have to do that at all.
[06:42] <ali1234> imbecile: sure? you've tried vlc --vout xvid etc
[06:42] <GameSpot> so what should i do
[06:42] <mary-kate> i'm here
[06:42] <Comrade-Sergei> foose12 heh yea right im good with gnome
[06:42] <mobutu> Airwulf: i don't understand what you are trying to do
[06:42] <mary-kate> but the channel is going fast!
[06:42] <tovella> GameSpot: click on Places, then Computer.
[06:42] <agn0stic> GameSpot: http://rute.2038bug.com/node7.html.gz read this, or google for RUTE and start reading from chapter four. I was really, really lost when I started using linux, and this is what saved my hide
[06:42] <GameSpot> i did tovella
[06:42] <GameSpot> now what shold i do
[06:42] <MrOtacon> what are you trying to do GameSpot?
[06:42] <GameSpot> I have created a partition on my new harddrive which I will be using for storage purpose. The new partition is ext3 and is called /dev/sdb1 - How do I add this and mount it so i can start to store music/movies on this new harddrive?
[06:42] <ali1234> blackace11: hey you're back, i got disconnected before, sorry about that
[06:42] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: you know we got the 5.5% limit here. there is a brew club here. some of the linux nerds are on that one too
[06:42] <GameSpot> thats what im trying to do MrOtacon
[06:43] <christian> andruk: you still there?
[06:43] <Nutubuntu> sudo gedit is a bad idea; gksudo gedit instead
[06:43] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ how ...via command dir? (Sorry I've read the docs but can't remmber)
[06:43] <foose12> comrade-segei: well that's just my guess, there could be other ways though
[06:43] <andruk> christian: yeah, reading things, one sec
[06:43] <blackace11> lol
[06:43] <blackace11> hey!
[06:43] <tovella> GameSpot: now click on filesystem, then media
[06:43] <Flannel> GameSpot: If you'd stop whining, and start reading the links we've given you, you'd know exactly what you were doing.  You're trying to learn linux, you said that yourself.  But Why are you so hesitant to learn anything?
[06:43] <fwp> does anyone else have a problem with slow ssh in 7.04 ?
[06:43] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: cd /etc/
[06:43] <blackace11> i'm back!
[06:43] <illusin1> How can I move my ubuntu installation to another hard drive (it's currently installed on an external drive which is very slow)?
[06:43] <GameSpot> tovella - i have gone to places > ocmputer, now what
[06:43] <GameSpot> ok done
[06:43] <w116tjb> Why is sudo gedit bad?
[06:43] <GameSpot> im in media now
[06:43] <Bird> Can somebody help me with GRUB?????
[06:43] <newbuntu> wols:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27369/
[06:43] <blackace11> coworkers talked me into beating them at some spades
[06:43] <wiglaf> wols: i've been through it, and came down to the pci busses...the real question is "Why doesn't lspci see what card is in my cardbus slot, despite dmesg telling me that there is one there?" or, more initially: "How do I get my Cardbus Wifi Adapter to work?"
[06:43] <christian> andruk:  ok sorry
[06:43] <Comrade-Sergei> foose12 im not going to reinstall over it
[06:43] <Comrade-Sergei> what does it mean when all my KDE based programs say "cannot talk to klauncher"?
[06:43] <tovella> GameSpot: ... hang on.
[06:43] <mobutu> Bird: just ask your question
[06:43] <Flannel> !ask | Bird
[06:43] <ubotu> Bird: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:43] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  Thank god for homebrew and microbrew.
[06:44] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ how do I list everything itn /etc
[06:44] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: but enjoy the beer.
[06:44] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: ls
[06:44] <andruk> christian: np, and actually, i was wrong.  here's a website that walks you through the install: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_Multimedia_Player_.28Songbird.29
[06:44] <Evolution2> how come i get module not found with wine
[06:44] <Bird> Lol, ok, well, when trying to get into Windows XP from GRUB it tells me "Disk read error" the last time I got into XP just fine, but upon a restart I can't anymore
[06:44] <ali1234> blackace11: i think from your error before, it looked like you tried to read from a none-existing axis on the joystick
[06:44] <mobutu> w116tjb: because then you'd be able to edit any file on your system with your instance of gedit , whch is probably not what you want to do
[06:44] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ command not found
[06:44] <tovella> GameSpot: do you see the other disk partition, there (in /media)?
[06:44] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: the command that I would use to view fstab is cat /etc/fstab
[06:44] <mobutu> Evolution2: what command line are you typing
[06:44] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: "ls"
[06:44] <Nutubuntu> w116tjb, sudo is for text mode. sometimes - rarely - it will seriously mess up a system if it's used with a gui app
[06:45] <christian> andruk: awesome!  Thanks dude!
[06:45] <blackace11> alil234 go to there window
[06:45] <GameSpot> no i do not, heres whats listed: cdrom, cdrom0, cdrom1, floppy1, floppy2
[06:45] <w116tjb> mobutu: Thanks. So gksudo gedit limits it to the current file?
[06:45] <illusin1> How can I move my ubuntu installation to another hard drive (it's currently installed on an external drive which is very slow)?
[06:45] <tovella> GameSpot: ok, hang on...
[06:45] <Evolution2> mobutu: wine utorrent.exe
[06:45] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: yall have plenty of time up there to make the beers though yees?
[06:45] <andruk> christian: or you could use automatix2 to install it (gui based)
[06:45] <mobutu> w116tjb: i don't know.  i would type   'sudo gedit FILENAMEHERE'
[06:45] <GameSpot> tovella - but, in fdisk -l. it shows my second harddrive with the partition
[06:45] <ali1234> blackace11: there window?
[06:45] <asep> i try to use wget on the terminal and get this message "Error parsing proxy URL http://:8080/: Invalid host name." so what shoul i do
[06:45] <Evolution2> i have the standalone file
[06:45] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  isn't beer a synonomous (sp) for happiness?
[06:45] <MrOtacon> GameSpot: do "vol_id /dev/sdb1" and take note of the uuid
[06:45] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: laugh
[06:45] <mobutu> Evolution2: is utorrent.exe in your path?   try wine ./utorrent.exe
[06:46] <wiglaf> illusin1: that's tough...but the new installers should be able to move your users and settings if you mount the disk before you install from the livecd
[06:46] <n8k99> does ekiga support video chat for yahoo messenger
[06:46] <mobutu> Evolution2: if utorrent.exe is in your current directory
[06:46] <Evolution2> mobutu: its in my desktop
[06:46] <christian> andruk: is that a program already on ubuntu?
[06:46] <illusin1> wiglaf: cool, thanks for something of an answer :P
[06:46] <Comrade-Sergei> what does it mean when all my KDE based programs say "cannot talk to klauncher"?
[06:46] <mary-kate> if somebody can help...msg me...i can't keep up very well with a fast channel
[06:46] <andruk> no, but it is really easy to install
[06:46] <PanzerMKZ_> why is Evolution2 using wine for a torrent prog?
[06:46] <tovella> GameSpot:  what would you like to call this storage area (name)?
[06:46] <blackace11> tryed opining a dialogue window with ya
[06:46] <GameSpot> ID_FS_USAGE=filesystem
[06:46] <GameSpot> ID_FS_TYPE=ext3

[06:46] <GameSpot> ID_FS_LABEL_SAFE=
[06:46] <buize> ubuntu is awesome
[06:46] <ali1234> blackace11: if you're trying to msg me, you need to identify to nickserv again with the password you set earlier
[06:46] <GameSpot> whats what it gave me MrOtacon
[06:46] <buize> tihs is my 2nd day using it
[06:46] <blackace11> oh
[06:46] <DisabledDuck> whats a good ftp client?
[06:46] <WaltzingAlong> Evolution2: wine "~/Desktop/utorrent.exe"
[06:46] <UbuntuServerUser> @ PanzerMKZ_ http://pastebin.com/937234
[06:46] <PanzerMKZ_> DisabledDuck: ftp
[06:46] <GameSpot> tovella I would like to call it storage
[06:46] <mobutu> asep: what does '    export | grep PROXY    ' say ?
[06:46] <GameSpot> :P
[06:46] <dr_willis> DisabledDuck,  the gnome and kde file managers can do ftp.
[06:47] <WaltzingAlong> DisabledDuck: ftp  or filezilla
[06:47] <Nutubuntu> illusin1, alternatively you could look into cloning your current HD with dd or going fs by fs with dump/restore ...
[06:47] <andruk> GameSpot: please do not use the enter key to format things
[06:47] <wiglaf> illusin1: sorry, man...I don't use linux to keep it around for longer than a few months...once it starts working, it's time to try a new distro
[06:47] <GameSpot> sorry
[06:47] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: hold on
[06:47] <spirit_> wow
[06:47] <wiglaf> good call, Nutubuntu
[06:47] <haqbox> hi all. I got these message --> [   81.142562]  **WARNING** I2C adapter driver [NVIDIA i2c adapter 0 at 1:00.0]  forgot to specify physical device; fix it! <-- When I type dmesg. How do I fix it?
[06:47] <blackace11> nickserv identiy
[06:47] <cor> DisabledDuck: gftp
[06:47] <asep> mobutu : thanx
[06:47] <Evolution2> PanzerMKZ_: what are you suggesting
[06:47] <MrOtacon> GameSpot:  ok - one sec
[06:47] <spirit_> my first start with ubuntu
[06:47] <andruk> christian: i would install automatix (it makes a lot of things easy to install)
[06:47] <Selrach> I am in need of some help, those of you who helped me before. I still have the same error as before, no GUI will boot...
[06:47] <Comrade-Sergei> what does the cannot talk to klauncher mean when i load a KDE program?
[06:47] <PanzerMKZ_> Evolution2: that you first try all the linux native clients out there
[06:47] <Selrach> ugh
[06:47] <spirit_> fuck this is really great
[06:47] <Bird> I can't get into Windows XP through GRUB anymore, I get "Disk Read Error Occured, press ctrl+alt+del to restart" How can I possibly fix this, I don't think I did anything to corrupt the XP install (I just restarted and tried to get back in)
[06:48] <Flannel> !automatix | andruk, christian
[06:48] <ubotu> andruk, christian: 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
[06:48] <tovella> GameSpot: ok, then enter this in a terminal window: sudo mkdir /media/storage
[06:48] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  I guess we do, but we hustle a little bit, you folks take your time at doing everything. But I can understand why, when it is 90 degress out, and 90 percent humidity, I wouldn't hussle either. And we've had three days of that, with a couple more coming.
[06:48] <GameSpot> done
[06:48] <Evolution2> PanzerMKZ_: i did
[06:48] <Evolution2> tried almost all of them
[06:48] <Evolution2> even azureus
[06:48] <andruk> !WorksForMe
[06:48] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[06:48] <Evolution2> but utorrent is simply too good
[06:48] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: ok and where is your second drive mounted??
[06:49] <PanzerMKZ_> Evolution2: is not utorrent also on linux native?
[06:49] <dr_willis> ive used utorrent with wine.. just a simple download of the utorrent.exe and a 'wine utorrent.exe'
[06:49] <MrOtacon> GameSpot: add this line to your fstab - UUID=a8200799-b5ae-4603-9fb9-24dc421316d0 /               ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1
[06:49] <Selrach> Could someone help me with my GUI issue? I'm using an ATI video card
[06:49] <tovella> GameSpot: now this one: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/storage
[06:49] <andruk> Flannel: thanks
[06:49] <Evolution2> PanzerMKZ_: no
[06:49] <Evolution2> need wine
[06:49] <GameSpot> done
[06:49] <dr_willis> theres no utorrent native for linux that i know of (yet)  they do test it with wine I hear.
[06:49] <Comrade-Sergei> what does the cannot talk to klauncher mean when i load a KDE program?
[06:49] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ well last time I had computer in GUI kubuntu it was under hdab
[06:49] <mobutu> what does UUID=a8200799-b5ae-4603-9fb9-24dc421316d0  mean
[06:49] <DarkMageZ> Selrach, could you please describe the problem some more
[06:49] <andruk> christian: nevermind, use the link i gave you
[06:49] <dr_willis> Comrade-Sergei,  perhaps ask in #kde
[06:49] <phrog> I tell you, I use KTorrent in GNOME with no problems and it does me right.
[06:49] <Flannel> !uuid | mobutu
[06:49] <ubotu> mobutu: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[06:49] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ it is slave to master
[06:50] <Comrade-Sergei> dr_willis, i dont even run KDE
[06:50] <qnyc> Comrade-Sergei, or #kubuntu
[06:50] <Selrach> okay, my last 3 lines before I'm given the text login, are
[06:50] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: there should not be a hbab
[06:50] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  hey, I see your actually helping someone, I'll go silent, maybe I can too. Before I'm asked to go OT.

[06:50] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: pm me then
[06:50] <GameSpot> tovella i have mounted it, is that it
[06:50] <qnyc> Comrade-Sergei, what kde program?
[06:50] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ hdb sorry
[06:50] <Selrach> Loading ACPI modules, starting ACPI services, and Killed
[06:50] <dr_willis> Comrade-Sergei,  it pays to ask where people are knowledgable.. and the #kde guys are the expert in kde related things...
[06:50] <Selrach> then I get the text login...
[06:50] <tovella> GameSpot: no,  if you want it to mount upon reboot, there's a little more to do.
[06:51] <newbuntu> wols: still reading my long paste ?
[06:51] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: you must then make a entry in fstab or hand mount hba
[06:51] <GameSpot> ah
[06:51] <Comrade-Sergei> qnyc, amarok and kopete nostly
[06:51] <wiglaf> when's Ubuntu going to include the 'sudo fix-everything' command line?
[06:51] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: hdb rather
[06:51] <mobutu> Evolution2: i have no idea why wine is complaining about 'module not found' .
[06:51] <GameSpot> ok i have typed the sudo mount cmd you gave me, what should i do now
[06:51] <Evolution2> ok
[06:51] <Evolution2> done
[06:51] <MrOtacon> GameSpot: yeah, just setup that that you just did in the rc.local to do it automatically everyboot if you dont want it in fstab
[06:51] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ well I don't want to bother you too much, there an easy CLI guide to that?
[06:51] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: you get my pm?
[06:51] <andruk> wiglaf: its a little thing called the liveCD.  it even has a GUI
[06:51] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: no bother
[06:51] <wiglaf> hahahahaha
[06:51] <andruk> ;-)
[06:51] <Evolution2> WaltzingAlong: thanks it worked.
[06:52] <MrOtacon> GameSpot: if you "cd /media/storage" thats your drive now
[06:52] <GameSpot> MrOtacon - I have created /media/storage, then I have mounted /media/storage to my harddrive partition, which is /dev/sdb1 - from there what do I do?
[06:52] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: you see the way fstab is setup. just go with that
[06:52] <MrOtacon> clean and ready to use
[06:52] <PanzerMKZ_> Selrach: never lost.
[06:52] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  Yep, a reply is waiting for you.
[06:52] <Bird> GRUB won't boot into Windows XP any more, it says "Disk Read Error Occured, Press ctrl+alt+del" to restart, It was working fine before  but now it doesn't, what should I do?:-/
[06:52] <MrOtacon> GameSpot: if its mounted - you can use it
[06:52] <tovella> you must create an entry in fstab, so enter the command: gksu gedit /etc/fstab &
[06:52] <Evolution2> WaltzingAlong: how do i make it show up in the kmenu
[06:52] <GameSpot> yes but, will it be mounted forever/
[06:53] <GameSpot> i dont have to do anything in dstab?
[06:53] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ so i have to create an entry in fstab using nano? Where is fstab located?
[06:53] <tovella> GameSpot: you must create an entry in fstab, so enter the command: gksu gedit /etc/fstab &
[06:53] <MrOtacon> but in fstab - add "UUID=a8200799-b5ae-4603-9fb9-24dc421316d0 /               ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1"
[06:53] <GameSpot> how do i do that
[06:53] <Evolution2> WaltzingAlong: or do i always have to run utorrent using konsole
[06:53] <Selrach> the last people who tried to help me suggested that my video card is causing problems
[06:53] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: /etc/fstab
[06:53] <GameSpot> tovella what do i put as the entry
[06:53] <tovella> MrOtacon: wrong, we dont' want to mount it as /
[06:53] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: not seeing your replies.
[06:53] <tovella> GameSpot: ... hang on.
[06:53] <wiglaf> okay, but seriously, guys...I want wireless internet in Feisty...I have a Dlink DWL-G650 (google says Atheros chipset) and a USB wifi adapter (ZyDAN? chipset) and neither are found by any hardware detection.  Correction: They are seen, but not identified or communicated with.  Where can I look for help on either of these (sorry for the long msg)
[06:53] <MrOtacon> yeah srry - "UUID=a8200799-b5ae-4603-9fb9-24dc421316d0 /media/storage              ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1"
[06:54] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ so how would I add this drive...I don't even know if its there, I can't just create it can I?
[06:54] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: you have to fdisk it and all that
[06:54] <Rod> I'm having trouble with Ubuntu remembering my private key passphrase. I enter it with ssh-add and it is OK until I logout or reboot. Shouldn't the keyring remember this
[06:54] <cor> wiglaf: google for ndiswrapper
[06:54] <MrOtacon> GameSpot: UUID=a8200799-b5ae-4603-9fb9-24dc421316d0 /media/storage               ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1
[06:54] <Bird>  GRUB won't boot into Windows XP any more, it says "Disk Read Error Occured, Press ctrl+alt+del" to restart, It was working fine before  but now it doesn't, what should I do?:-/
[06:54] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ yea IDK how to do that
[06:54] <anathematic> decent ftp server for server?
[06:54] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ whats the tool called that I need to use?
[06:54] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ:  Ok, sent a second one, did you see that one?
[06:54] <wiglaf> cor: ndiswrapper is a no go if dmesg can't find the device
[06:54] <GameSpot> MrOtacon,  are you sure
[06:55] <mobutu> Rod: why do you think ssh-add would keep your passphrase if you log out or reboot ?
[06:55] <anathematic> !ftp
[06:55] <ubotu> FTP clients: !Nautilus, !gFTP (for !GNOME) - !Konqueror, !Kasablanca, !KFTPGrabber (for !KDE) - See also !FTPd

[06:55] <tovella> GameSpot: UUID=a8200799-b5ae-4603-9fb9-24dc421316d0    /media/storage      ext3    defaults
[06:55] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: no. you registed with freenode?
[06:55] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: IDK?
[06:55] <GameSpot> UUID=a8200799-b5ae-4603-9fb9-24dc421316d0 /media/storage               ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1
[06:55] <GameSpot> so i just copy that
[06:55] <GameSpot> where do i add this
[06:55] <PanzerMKZ_> freak there are alot of ftp servers
[06:55] <Rod> Im new to Ubuntu. I thought that was what the keyring was for. It keeps track of WEP keys and network passwords
[06:55] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ I don't know
[06:55] <GameSpot> tovella - i dont have to add remount like MrOtacon did?
[06:55] <Bird>  GRUB won't boot into Windows XP any more, it says "Disk Read Error Occured, Press ctrl+alt+del" to restart, It was working fine before  but now it doesn't, what should I do?:-/
[06:55] <tovella> GameSpot: sorry i messed up... yeah, you got it.
[06:56] <MrOtacon> at the bottom of fstab
[06:56] <GameSpot> UUID=a8200799-b5ae-4603-9fb9-24dc421316d0    /media/storage      ext3    defaults
[06:56] <GameSpot> so thats it?
[06:56] <GameSpot> which one do i add
[06:56] <n2diy> PanzerMKZ_: Yes, I thought I was, maybe I was "updated?"
[06:56] <MrOtacon> the remount is just for disk error - i always put it in
[06:56] <GameSpot> MrOtacon or tovella
[06:56] <GameSpot> which line
[06:56] <chalcedony> mary-kate i'm using feisty fawn...whenever i'm using the machine for chatting or for bircd, after about 10, 20 minutes the whole machine freezes, forcing me to force a shut down then reboot...and i need some help to figure out what's wrong
[06:56] <Evolution2> PanzerMKZ_: i got it to work but how do i get it in the kmenu
[06:56] <MrOtacon> either
[06:56] <Selrach> Okay, I am having issues with my install of Kubuntu, it refuses to boot into the GUI, I am simply dropped to console login. The last 3 lines are: Loading ACPI modules,
[06:56] <Selrach> oops
[06:56] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: the tool is fdisk
[06:56] <tovella> GameSpot: you may want to add the 0 0 to at the end.
[06:56] <MrOtacon> both are the same - mine just  says mount as readonly if thee is a error
[06:56] <Selrach> Starting ACPI modules, and Killed. Some help would be appreciated...
[06:56] <Bird>  GRUB won't boot into Windows XP any more, it says "Disk Read Error Occured, Press ctrl+alt+del" to restart, It was working fine before  but now it doesn't, what should I do?:-/
[06:56] <PanzerMKZ_> Evolution2: that I don't know. I just gnome
[06:56] <dawn`chorus> top
[06:57] <GameSpot> tovella - so I should add exactly this: UUID=a8200799-b5ae-4603-9fb9-24dc421316d0 /media/storage               ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1
[06:57] <dr_willis> Bird,  id say boot a windows xp disk into rescue mode and have it scan that disk.
[06:57] <w116tjb> How can I get write access to an ntfs drive?
[06:57] <PanzerMKZ_> n2diy: join me in #n2diy
[06:57] <dr_willis> !ntfs-config
[06:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfs-config - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:57] <tovella> GameSpot: yes, that will work.
[06:57] <dr_willis> Hmm.
[06:57] <Evolution2> PanzerMKZ_: thanks
[06:57] <PanzerMKZ_> Evolution2: np
[06:57] <Selrach> Looks like I'm on my own :|
[06:57] <DShepherd> !ntfs
[06:57] <dr_willis> !ntfs-configure
[06:57] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[06:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfs-configure - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:57] <newbuntu> wols ?
[06:57] <GameSpot> tovella where do i add it
[06:58] <Bird> Well I'll give that a try, see what happens
[06:58] <GameSpot> tovella at the end of the fstab cfg?
[06:58] <DShepherd> dr_willis, ^ maybe?
[06:58] <tovella> GameSpot: me thinks you've already got it.
[06:58] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: you got to fdisk and partition
[06:58] <dr_willis> DShepherd,  i forget thename of the tool.
[06:58] <chalcedony> i'm tring to help mary-kate who can't watch this window. she's having troube with her feisty locking up randomly during chat programs, she has to reboot the whole box. what could be doing it?
[06:58] <GameSpot> ?
[06:58] <GameSpot> what do you mean
[06:58] <tovella> GameSpot: UUID=a8200799-b5ae-4603-9fb9-24dc421316d0 /media/storage    ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1
[06:58] <dr_willis> chalcedony,  random lockups are often due to the X video drivers.
[06:58] <GameSpot> so i add that at the end of fstab?
[06:58] <DShepherd> dr_willis, its ntfs-config.. but i dont think ubotu knows about that. I dont think its in the repos either..
[06:58] <level1> how do I start mysql?
[06:59] <MrOtacon> GameSpot: yes dude
[06:59] <dr_willis> DShepherd,  it has to be.. i got it some how. :)
[06:59] <GameSpot> and thats it?
[06:59] <GameSpot> and i reboot?
[06:59] <dr_willis> !find ntfs
[06:59] <ubotu> Found: libntfs-dev, libntfs9, ntfsprogs, libntfs-3g-dev, libntfs-3g0 (and 4 others)
[06:59] <varka> GameSpot: sudo mount -a
[06:59] <tovella> GameSpot: you don't have to reboot.
[06:59] <chalcedony> dr_willis: ty much .. um how can she check that?
[06:59] <w116tjb> I'm talking just in Feisty... I have my music on a separate hard drive that uses ntfs... How can I add files to it?
[06:59] <GameSpot> tovella do i have to type sudo mount -a ?
[06:59] <dr_willis> !find  ntfs-config
[06:59] <ubotu> Found: ntfs-config
[06:59] <tovella> GameSpot: yes.
[06:59] <DShepherd> dr_willis, ok.. i guess its there :-)
[06:59] <dr_willis> chalcedony,  well.. depends on her video card.. she could use a console based irc client to get here.. and perhaps get some help. and survice the crash..
[06:59] <dr_willis> Unless its a really bad crash
[07:00] <dr_willis> !info ntfs-config
[07:00] <ubotu> ntfs-config: Enable/disable write support for any NTFS devices. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.5.5-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 41 kB, installed size 432 kB
[07:00] <GameSpot> tovella it gives me a error - mount: special device /dev/disk/by-uuid/a8200799-b5ae-4603-9fb9-24dc421316d0 does not exist

[07:00] <w116tjb> Type that in terminal?
[07:00] <w116tjb> Cause it says it doesn't exist.
[07:00] <dr_willis> I perfer irssi to bitchx. :)
[07:00] <chalcedony> dr_willis: she IS here on her windows box. the channel is hard for her to read (visually impaired)
[07:00] <tovella> GameSpot: do again: vol_id /dev/sdb1
[07:01] <dr_willis> chalcedony,  guess ya start with 'what video card does the machine have'
[07:01] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ Unable to read /etc/fstab
[07:01] <GameSpot> ID_FS_UUID=a8200799-b5ae-4603-9fb9-24dc421316d0
[07:01] <GameSpot> thats the id tovella
[07:01] <particleman> argh...
[07:01] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: what shell you running
[07:01] <PanzerMKZ_> ?
[07:01] <particleman> I'm trying to get 1360x768 resolution to work on my Radeon 9200 under Dapper
[07:01] <Orgullomoore> hmm...any tips to get my microphone working?
[07:01] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ CLI
[07:01] <UbuntuServerUser> Ubuntu Server
[07:01] <GameSpot> im so confused
[07:02] <GameSpot> what could i hav done wrong
[07:02] <Orgullomoore> I'm trying to record something in Audacity, but it shows no input
[07:02] <st3v3dnd> hey all, does anyone know how to stop totem from closing when a clip ends?
[07:02] <tovella> GameSpot: then ID_FS_UUID=a8200799-b5ae-4603-9fb9-24dc421316d0 is what you need.
[07:02] <particleman> dpkg-configure xserv doesn't give me that choice, and adding the resolution manually to xorg.conf doesn't work either
[07:02] <particleman> help!
[07:02] <Orgullomoore> in Windows I just had to plug it in and press record...
[07:02] <GameSpot> oh
[07:02] <GameSpot> so i put id_fs
[07:02] <lO_osr> hi
[07:02] <GameSpot> insted of just uiid?
[07:02] <qnyc> Orgullomoore, have you tried System -> Preferences -> Volume Control ?
[07:02] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: did you "cat /etc/fstab"
[07:02] <tovella> GameSpot: sorry, messed up again.
[07:02] <lO_osr> anyone Passwordless login?
[07:02] <katie> can someone help me
[07:02] <Nutubuntu> !ask
[07:02] <lO_osr> !passwordless
[07:02] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about passwordless - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:02] <w116tjb> How can I force my refresh rate to go higher? It's at 60 and that's as high as it will go.
[07:02] <tovella> GameSpot: UUID=a8200799-b5ae-4603-9fb9-24dc421316d0
[07:03] <chalcedony> katie: try to tell us what to help with?
[07:03] <tovella> GameSpot: damn tiny keyboard...
[07:03] <lO_osr> can I ask to ask?
[07:03] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ yes...that just gave me an output
[07:03] <Orgullomoore> qnyc> indeed, mic volume is up
[07:03] <Vletmix> What package do I add to modify the more detailed compiz settings?
[07:03] <katie> i try to start ubuntu but it says my fstab is all messed up
[07:03] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ http://pastebin.com/937234
[07:03] <GameSpot> ID_FS_UUID=a8200799-b5ae-4603-9fb9-24dc421316d0 /media/storage               ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1
[07:03] <GameSpot> is that right
[07:03] <katie> what could be wrong ?
[07:03] <TaJMoX> particleman if you cant get your res and you added it in xorg conf then your monitor settings are probably wrong
[07:03] <particleman> oh yes...and I know the resolution works with my monitor and card, because it works fine under windows
[07:03] <particleman> hmm
[07:03] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: oh so you want to mod it then. ok so sudo nano /etc/fstab
[07:03] <TaJMoX> like refresh and virtical sync
[07:03] <tovella> GameSpot: UUID=a8200799-b5ae-4603-9fb9-24dc421316d0
[07:03] <katie> can i paste it in here?
[07:04] <Nutubuntu> !pastebin
[07:04] <chalcedony> dr_willis: what command to determine video card please?
[07:04] <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)
[07:04] <MrOtacon> GameSpot: no - you don't need the ID_FS _ that'll throw up an error
[07:04] <Flannel> GameSpot: no, get rid of the ",errors=remount-ro" that's only for /
[07:04] <lO_osr> passworles login anyone/anybody?
[07:04] <Flannel> GameSpot: just 'defaults'
[07:04] <dr_willis> chalcedony,  hmm.. i always know what my pc's have.. :) guess lspci will give you a clue
[07:04] <particleman> TajMox-that's the thing...the list of resolutions in xorg.conf has nothing to do with the list of resolutions available in the gnome display settings applet
[07:04] <Flannel> lO_osr: why do you want to do that?
[07:04] <TaJMoX> katie - pastebin your /etc/fstab and also sudo fdisk -l
[07:04] <GameSpot> Flannel,
[07:04] <w116tjb> TajMoX: Yeah... I want to increase the refresh rate because my screen has a slight flicker that drives me crazy.
[07:04] <GameSpot> should i keep the 0     1 though?
[07:04] <particleman> and I've tried to dig for the relevant other config file, but I can't find it
[07:04] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ OK done (btw should I always login my usual username and not login to root all the time
[07:04] <GameSpot> or remove the numbers as well
[07:04] <tovella> Flannel: GameSpot: i agree, i just use defaults without the remount & errors stuff.
[07:04] <Flannel> GameSpot: yeah, just change the flags.
[07:04] <lO_osr> Flannel: all XP ppl want passwordless login
[07:04] <TaJMoX> particleman - right because your monitor settings are wrong in your xorg.conf
[07:04] <particleman> ...?
[07:04] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ so what I need to edit
[07:05] <tovella> game keep the numbers.
[07:05] <Flannel> lO_osr: No, they dont.  Just think they do.  Just like they think they want to run as root, but they don't really.
[07:05] <GameSpot> ok please tell me if this is EXACTLY what i should type into fstab, here it is:  UUID=a8200799-b5ae-4603-9fb9-24dc421316d0 /media/storage               ext3    defaults
[07:05] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: yes all the time as reg user. use sudo to go to root.
[07:05] <Flannel> GameSpot: then 0 1
[07:05] <GameSpot> 0 1
[07:05] <GameSpot> with how many spaces
[07:05] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: you will add a line for hdb
[07:05] <GameSpot> ohh
[07:05] <GameSpot> ok
[07:05] <lO_osr> ohh this sux
[07:05] <katie> http://paste.ubuntu.on.nimp.org/27370/
[07:05] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ ok I'm listening
[07:05] <lO_osr> there's no passworless loging?
[07:05] <imbecile> well i'm still at square one at approaching 16 hours
[07:05] <tovella> GameSpot: in fact, just put "0   0", instead of 0  1
[07:05] <qnyc> lO_osr, System -> Administration -> Login Window
[07:05] <GameSpot> are you sure
[07:06] <Flannel> lO_osr: You don't want passwordless login.  But yes, you can technically set it up.
[07:06] <GameSpot> Flannel does 0 0 sound good?
[07:06] <tovella> GameSpot: that's the way mine is.
[07:06] <Flannel> GameSpot: no, 0 2
[07:06] <qnyc> lO_osr, Security tab -> Enable Automatic Login
[07:06] <GameSpot> so 0 2
[07:06] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: you will have to make hdb look like hda. you got the same file system
[07:06] <GameSpot> i dont get it whats the difference
[07:06] <tovella> GameSpot: make sure you save the file before you remount.
[07:06] <GameSpot> should I PUT 0 0 , 0 1 , or 0 2 ??????
[07:06] <particleman> hmm...ok, dumb question, but how do I fix it?
[07:06] <MrOtacon> lO_osr: passwordless login is easy - goto system>administration>login window - then click the security tab - then tick automatic login, then choose the user to auto login - but i strongly do not recommend having an automatic login
[07:06] <tovella> GameSpot: 0  0
[07:06] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ I believe its formated as ext3
[07:06] <GameSpot> why is Flannel  saying 0 2
[07:07] <dr_willis> GameSpot,   the  'man mount' docs detail what those #'s do. for future referance.
[07:07] <particleman> dpkg-reconfigure can't autodetect my monitor, and doesn't list that resolution for a generic monitor
[07:07] <Flannel> GameSpot: Read some documentation instead of freaking out.  Good grief.
[07:07] <tovella> GameSpot: ask him.
[07:07] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: is hda formatted ext3?
[07:07] <dr_willis> Its all about how the filesystem gets checked at boot time.
[07:07] <MrOtacon> GameSpot: i admit, it is confusing at first - but just take a breath, and calm down :D - you'll get it eventually
[07:07] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ how can I tell for sure? Isn't hda my boot drive so it should be
[07:08] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: hda should be in fstab
[07:08] <Flannel> GameSpot, tovella, all non-roots should be 2. or 0.  2 is better than zero.  `man fstab` and read the last paragraph
[07:08] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ well hda1 is ext3
[07:08] <GameSpot> pl
[07:08] <GameSpot> ok
[07:08] <GameSpot> well im adding 0 2
[07:09] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ and then theres this random hda5
[07:09] <GameSpot> wish me luck that my computer doesnt explode
[07:09] <MrOtacon> :D - good luck dude
[07:09] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ http://pastebin.com/937234
[07:09] <tovella> Flannel: GameSpot: first lets get it working, then we can tweak it to what's most appropriate.
[07:09] <particleman> yargh
[07:09] <Nutubuntu> UbuntuServerUser, hda is the master drive on the primary ide channel. may or may not contain the boot s
[07:09] <Flannel> tovella: might as well set it correctly the first time, and forget about it.
[07:09] <GameSpot> ok heres the final test
[07:09] <particleman> ok...reran dpkg-reconfigure, no effect
[07:09] <GameSpot> typing mount -a
[07:09] <GameSpot> 1 sec
[07:09] <dr_willis> ya need a 'sudo' :) most likely
[07:09] <GameSpot> OMG
[07:10] <MrOtacon> i take it it worked?
[07:10] <GameSpot> $ sudo mount -a
[07:10] <GameSpot> mount: special device /dev/disk/by-uuid/a8200799-b5ae-4603-9fb9-24dc421316d0 does not exist
[07:10] <GameSpot> [4] +  Done                    gksu gedit /etc/fstab
[07:10] <tovella> Flannel: perhaps when it's done, i'll get a chance to look over the manpage, again.. it has been a while.
[07:10] <GameSpot> no luck
[07:10] <GameSpot> wow
[07:10] <UbuntuServerUser> Nutubuntu pretty shure it does
[07:10] <GameSpot> plz tell me what am i doing wrong
[07:10] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: hda5 is your swap
[07:10] <UbuntuServerUser> whats a swap btw?
[07:10] <Flannel> !enter | GameSpot
[07:10] <ubotu> GameSpot: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[07:10] <dr_willis> sounds like a typo in the uuid #
[07:10] <UbuntuServerUser> !swap
[07:10] <ubotu> swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[07:10] <GameSpot> sorry
[07:10] <GameSpot> but what am i doing wrong
[07:10] <GameSpot> its not, i double checked it about 5000 types now
[07:10] <Flannel> GameSpot: You're using the enter key as punctuation.
[07:11] <UbuntuServerUser> Why is swap a whole partition?
[07:11] <varka> GameSpot: tovella: youre sure talking about the right device? ;)
[07:11] <Nutubuntu> UbuntuServerUser, it has its own fs
[07:11] <Flannel> UbuntuServerUser: Because usually it's easier to do it that way.  You can also use a swapfile if you'd prefer
[07:11] <GameSpot> yes watch i will paste the decivice
[07:11] <Flannel> !swap | UbuntuServerUser
[07:11] <ubotu> UbuntuServerUser: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[07:11] <dr_willis> ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/     - is how i get my uuid #'s
[07:11] <UbuntuServerUser> nah really don't care
[07:11] <GameSpot> Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System

[07:11] <UbuntuServerUser> just curious
[07:11] <particleman> and...bugger
[07:11] <GameSpot> ID_FS_USAGE=filesystem

[07:11] <GameSpot> ID_FS_LABEL_SAFE=
[07:11] <GameSpot> its the right stuff
[07:11] <tovella> GameSpot: what does the line (in fstab) say?
[07:11] <UbuntuServerUser> !pastebin | GameSpot
[07:11] <particleman> seems the gent who had a handle on my problem has left the building
[07:11] <ubotu> GameSpot: 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)
[07:11] <Flannel> GameSpot: STOP pasting here.
[07:12] <dr_willis> GameSpot,  there was no need to paste that.. and my command gave a much clearer output.
[07:12] <newtubuntu> I am back, sorry. Wols are you here ?
[07:12] <GameSpot> tovella is says: # /dev/sdb1
[07:12] <GameSpot> UUID=a8200799-b5ae-4603-9fb9-24dc421316d0 /media/storage               ext3    defaults 0       2
[07:12] <andruk> UbuntuServerUser, Windows uses a swapfile, but if it gets too big, windows tells you that your are out of memory, when you really arent
[07:13] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ hope your still here BRB
[07:13] <dr_willis> did you TYPE IN the #'s or did you cut/paste them. ya dident get a 0 and o mixxed up did ya? :)
[07:13] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: yea I am here
[07:13] <GameSpot> tovella the drives works, when i go to storage in media folder, the hd is there, but I dont know why i cannot mount it
[07:13] <MrOtacon> GameSpot: use dr_willis's ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/ - and check the uuid there (its highlighted)
[07:13] <UbuntuServerUser> andruk interesting
[07:13] <dr_willis> of course ya dont really need to uise the uuid  at all.
[07:13] <UbuntuServerUser> I'l brb
[07:13] <MrOtacon> if it works, its mounted?
[07:14] <jfkldsjfdklsfjkd> hi i've just installed ftpd on my ubuntu server and i can access it within my network but it's really really slow / not letting me connect through from the internet
[07:14] <jfkldsjfdklsfjkd> ideas?
[07:14] <GameSpot> MrOtacon,  do i have to be root to add the harddrive into mount?
[07:14] <Nutubuntu> jfkldsjfdklsfjkd, firewall?
[07:14] <Flannel> jfkldsjfdklsfjkd: Make sure you forward the appropriate ports.
[07:14] <dr_willis> shall i suggest learning to use ssh and dumping FTP tottaly? :)
[07:14] <GameSpot> because when i typed ls -l, it says the main linux boot hd is root
[07:14] <jfkldsjfdklsfjkd> Nutubuntu and Flannel should be fine i've opened up the correct port
[07:15] <antknight> i installed nvidia drivers but every time I reboot x stops and my system tells me its using part of the new driver and part of the old.
[07:15] <jfkldsjfdklsfjkd> shoudl it be on tcp or udp?
[07:15] <MrOtacon> GameSpot: to edit the etc/fstab and to use mount - yes
[07:15] <MrOtacon> just sudo su
[07:15] <MrOtacon> then do everything from in there
[07:15] <Nutubuntu> ftp is a connection-oriented service, jfkldsjfdklsfjkd
[07:15] <GameSpot> so do i have to login as root?
[07:15] <Flannel> MrOtacon: `sudo -i` not sudo su
[07:16] <jfkldsjfdklsfjkd> Nutubuntu: so tcp? :)
[07:16] <linux_probe> ftp = TCP
[07:16] <PanzerMKZ_> ftp is good
[07:16] <Flannel> jfkldsjfdklsfjkd: UDP packets never make it out of your LAN
[07:16] <PanzerMKZ_> ssh is ok
[07:16] <tovella> GameSpot: you may be able to put stuff in /media/storage, but that doesn't mean the disk is mounted at /media/storage.  if you type the command: mount you should see something.
[07:16] <Flannel> PanzerMKZ_: scp is good.
[07:16] <testtest3434> hello all
[07:16] <PanzerMKZ_> Flannel: UDP makes it out of lan
[07:16] <jfkldsjfdklsfjkd> haha oh i see Flannel, sorry not the best networking wizz
[07:16] <linux_probe> proftpd by default uses port 21 and port 1025-65535 passive mode
[07:16] <bobgill> In file browser windows you have the mounted drives and stuff on the left pane, and you have folders you have added as favourites too.. how do you add a folder to that part again ??
[07:16] <tovella> GameSpot: actually, by disk, i meant the partition you creatged.
[07:16] <PanzerMKZ_> Flannel: yes scp is good
[07:16] <MrOtacon> Flannel: sudo -i or sudo su, doesnt matter which in this case
[07:16] <GameSpot> YES
[07:17] <GameSpot> tovella I TYPED MOUNT and it says : /dev/sdb1 on /media/storage type ext3 (rw)
[07:17] <GameSpot> it shows the storage
[07:17] <testtest3434> I'm currently on a fiesty install boot, And im trying to install fiesty on a 500gig sata II drive. Anyway when i click manual and select the drive size it won't let me do larget then 70gigs am I doing something wrong?
[07:17] <GameSpot> but when i type mount -a it says it doesnt exist
[07:17] <qnyc> bobgill, add a bookmark
[07:17] <sparr> antknight seems to have an onjoin privmsg "moron"
[07:17] <testtest3434> it's a shame fiesty install cd doesn't come with an irc client other then gaim :)
[07:17] <andruk> GameSpot: what is the actual error it gives you?
[07:17] <antknight> sparr, no.
[07:17] <sparr> that, or he just doesnt like me
[07:17] <testtest3434> anyway but no complaints :)
[07:17] <Nutubuntu> testtest3434, lba enabled in cmos?
[07:17] <antknight> sparr, not that either.
[07:18] <MrOtacon> GameSpot: it says its mounted cause you mounted it manually using the mount -t ext3 /dev/sdb1 /media/storage
[07:18] <testtest3434> nutbuntu: dunno I'll have to check
[07:18] <tovella> ok, lets try it the old way.  replace UUID=... with /dev/sdb1
[07:18] <MrOtacon> GameSpot: that method does not look at fstab
[07:18] <antknight> sparr, its me, geartrooper :P
[07:18] <GameSpot> andruk it says the uuid media does not exist
[07:18] <bobgill> qnyc: thanks!
[07:18] <GameSpot> or something
[07:18] <tovella> GameSpot: ok, lets try it the old way.  replace UUID=... with /dev/sdb1
[07:18] <testtest3434> i'll give that a go thanks
[07:18] <GameSpot> done
[07:18] <GameSpot> so i take out uuid
[07:18] <sparr> antknight: which explains your oddly familiar nick coloring...  kvirc trying to help me out and i didnt realize it
[07:18] <GameSpot> or do i put uuid=/dev/sdb1
[07:19] <antknight> heheh
[07:19] <MrOtacon> GameSpot: now umount /dev/sdb1 - cause you can't mount it with mount -a if its already mounted
[07:19] <antknight> thought I'd add some mystery to the everyday.
[07:19] <MrOtacon> take out uuid
[07:19] <tovella> GameSpot: remove UUID=a8200799-b5ae-4603-9fb9-24dc421316d0
[07:19] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ OK I'm back, now what do I do in regard to setting up my second HDD in /etc/fstab?
[07:20] <defrysk> such patience
[07:20] <defrysk> would drive me nuts
[07:20] <tovella> GameSpot: in it's place, type or paste: /dev/sdb1
[07:20] <GameSpot> tovella so the new line looks like /dev/sdb1 /media/storage               ext3    defaults 0       0
[07:20] <GameSpot> is that correct
[07:20] <MrOtacon> no - change the last zero to 2
[07:20] <MrOtacon> or 1
[07:20] <tovella> GameSpot: exactly, now save the file & remount.
[07:20] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: did you format the drive
[07:20] <GameSpot> MrOtacon,  are u sure
[07:20] <antknight> restarting after installing a driver stops x.
[07:20] <GameSpot> MrOtacon,  all my other mounts are 0 0
[07:20] <Flannel> GameSpot: yes.  2 is what it should be.
[07:20] <GameSpot> why are all my other mounted stuff 0 0
[07:21] <Flannel> GameSpot: root should be 0 1
[07:21] <GameSpot> im not root
[07:21] <GameSpot> should i login as root?
[07:21] <f70> do you like abiword or open office?
[07:21] <MrOtacon> GameSpot: he means "/" mount point
[07:21] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ I think I may have a long time ago to ext3, but got all sorts of errors when I tried to mount it...shoudl I format again just to be on the safe side?
[07:21] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: yea I would
[07:21] <UbuntuServerUser> how?
[07:21] <GameSpot> MrOtacon,
[07:21] <tovella> GameSpot: sudo mount -a
[07:21] <defrysk> f70, take that to #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:21] <GameSpot> it says [1] +  Done                    gksu gedit /etc/fstab
[07:21] <MrOtacon> GameSpot: no - the root filesystem is what flannel is refering to - it should have 0 1 flags
[07:22] <kurtti> Any good reasons to update to Feisty from Edgy?
[07:22] <f70> oh
[07:22] <GameSpot> MrOtacon,  in fstab, all the other partitions on my main harddrive are 0 0 as well
[07:22] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: fdisk if I remember
[07:22] <Flannel> GameSpot: no no.  There's a line in there that says /dev/whatever / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1, or it should.  If it's 0 0, you should change it to 0 1
[07:22] <antknight> kurtti, wobbly windows!
[07:22] <GameSpot> are u sure
[07:22] <GameSpot> it was 0 0 by default
[07:22] <MrOtacon> GameSpot: i do not know why - do as flannel says - "/" should def be 0 1
[07:22] <GameSpot> i never did anything
[07:23] <kurtti> antknight, nope i have those already
[07:23] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ fdisk hdb?
[07:23] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: man fdisk
[07:23] <GameSpot> how do i see if its mounted now
[07:23] <Flannel> GameSpot: it was not 0 0 by default.  It hsould be 0 2, and all other partitions should be 0 2, except /proc if you've got one, and any removable media (well, and swap).
[07:23] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ its the slave
[07:23] <MrOtacon> do "sudo umount /dev/sdb1"
[07:23] <GameSpot> I typed sudo mount -a, and nothing came up, no error message or positive message
[07:23] <MrOtacon> then do "sudo mount -a"
[07:24] <GameSpot> i did
[07:24] <MrOtacon> and see if its mounted at the end
[07:24] <defrysk> kurtti, no reasons really except for newer shinier and further away from end of life
[07:24] <GameSpot> how did i see
[07:24] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: yea I kinda guessed that when you said it was hdb
[07:24] <polpol> GameSpot, df
[07:24] <UbuntuServerUser> k im reading
[07:24] <GameSpot> I typed mount
[07:24] <GameSpot> lrm on /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/volatile type tmpfs (rw)
[07:24] <GameSpot> binfmt_misc on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw)
[07:24] <GameSpot> /dev/sdb1 on /media/storage type ext3 (rw)
[07:24] <GameSpot> linux07@AC2007:~$ gksu gedit /etc/fstab &
[07:24] <MrOtacon> just type mount
[07:24] <GameSpot> look at the bottom
[07:24] <GameSpot> it says its there
[07:24] <GameSpot> is that right?
[07:24] <MrOtacon> yep
[07:24] <GameSpot> so if i reboot will it stay there
[07:25] <MrOtacon> GameSpot: yes - it should auto mount during boot
[07:25] <GameSpot> MrOtacon,  so am i all done now
[07:25] <MrOtacon> GameSpot: :) yes dude, you can take that sigh of relief now
[07:25] <GameSpot> thank you guys and have a merry happy christmas
[07:25] <gregorovius> Hi... I'm trying to compile a module (8250_pnp), but when I do 'make /drivers/serial/8250_pnp.ko' I get a .o file... help?
[07:25] <newtubuntu> should I play in my BIOS to solve a 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC  problem ?
[07:25] <antknight> np
[07:26] <varka> MrOtacon: tovella: i'm astonished about your patience ;)
[07:26] <tovella> varka: ...years of abuse... :)
[07:27] <varka> ^^
[07:27] <antknight> sparr any idea how to ensure my x will remain after installing drivers?  so far its killing gdm
[07:27] <antknight> *after restart
[07:27] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ fdisk /dev/hdb then what? No format option is available do you want me to delete the partition?
[07:28] <PanzerMKZ_> yea
[07:28] <wols> antknight: install the drievrs right
[07:28] <sparr> antknight: you have to install the kernel module AND the X driver, they have to match.  if you check your /var/log/Xorg.0.log you will probably see that they dont match
[07:28] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: yea nd then you might need to fdisk to get the new partition
[07:28] <GameSpot> OMG
[07:28] <GameSpot> wow
[07:28] <UbuntuServerUser> ok
[07:28] <wols> newbuntu:  Failed to load module "nvidia" (module does not exist, 0)
[07:28] <GameSpot> How do I add files onto m new harddrive
[07:28] <GameSpot> tovella,
[07:29] <hellslinger> does anyone know what the ubuntu kernel source code apt-source is?
[07:29] <tovella> GameSpot: hello.
[07:29] <Miranda> hi where would I get info on shell commands?
[07:29] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: and then man format for the commands to format
[07:29] <wols> GameSpot: is it mounted yet?
[07:29] <Jordan_U> GameSpot, What FS, internal or external?
[07:29] <GameSpot> yes
[07:29] <GameSpot> its mounted

[07:29] <GameSpot> its in media/storage - how can i add files to it, it wont let me copy and paste my music into that folder
[07:29] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: yea
[07:29] <Miranda> sorry
[07:29] <Jordan_U> GameSpot, What FS ?
[07:29] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: don't know the commands off the top of my hand
[07:29] <GameSpot> what does fs mean
[07:30] <UbuntuServerUser> k
[07:30] <Jordan_U> GameSpot, File system
[07:30] <PanzerMKZ_> Miranda: you did bad to river tam
[07:30] <wols> GameSpot: wrong permissions. you need to chown /media/storage to your user or make it world writable and executable
[07:30] <GameSpot> tovella,  was helping me out
[07:30] <Nutubuntu> GameSpot, fs = file system (e.g., ext2, ext3, reiserfs ...)
[07:30] <GameSpot> how do i do that
[07:30] <PanzerMKZ_> Miranda: sorry been watching to much Firefly
[07:30] <GameSpot> oh its ext3
[07:30] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: mkfs.ext3 is what you need if you have a partition made
[07:30] <GameSpot> i have access to the root acct
[07:30] <GameSpot> its my computer
[07:30] <Jordan_U> GameSpot, Do you have permissions to write to it?
[07:30] <Miranda> sorry I just wanted to ask what shell commands are.  I am not a linux user, sorry.
[07:30] <GameSpot> .....im on the regular account, i use sudo on this one
[07:30] <antknight> wols, I thought the right kernel-header plus the nvidia kernel compiler did that
[07:30] <tovella> GameSpot: there are a couple of ways to resolve that problem.  do you intend to have anyone else use that partition?
[07:30] <GameSpot> but i also have the root account enabled

[07:31] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_: 83 Linux right?
[07:31] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: yes
[07:32] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: wols says yes
[07:32] <UbuntuServerUser> lol
[07:32] <UbuntuServerUser> yea
[07:32] <tovella> GameSpot: there are a couple of ways to resolve that problem.  do you intend to have anyone else use that partition?
[07:33] <antknight> wols, I installed the nvidia driver, it compiled a kernel and updated /xserver-xorg.  what else needs to be done?
[07:33] <UbuntuServerUser> so now its fdisk t /dev/hdb right
[07:33] <valehru> The Trevino compiz repo doesnt support x64 right?
[07:33] <coraline> did you sacrifice the chicken?
[07:33] <Vletmix> Anyone know of a remote desktop client for linux which supports the RFPv6 protocol?
[07:33] <wols> antknight: it did not compile a kernel. and how did you install the nvidia drivers?
[07:33] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: mo "t" in there
[07:33] <antknight> with sh ./NVIDIA-driver
[07:33] <UbuntuServerUser> wols mo "t" ?
[07:33] <Jordan_U> wols, Use the restricted driver manager
[07:34] <wols> antknight: no t
[07:34] <wols> Jordan_U: don't tell me
[07:34] <wols> Jordan_U: and I was not asking you
[07:34] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: no t
[07:34] <antknight> well, then I don't know what to do.
[07:34] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: I'd use cfdisk or parted. better suited for ubuntu btw
[07:34] <UbuntuServerUser> I'm using CLI
[07:34] <wols> antknight: answer my question
[07:34] <wols> GameSpot: yes, cfdisk
[07:34] <antknight> no t?
[07:35] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ so how I create new 83 linux partition?
[07:35] <wols> antknight: that was not for you
[07:35] <hellslinger> wols: linux image doesn't appear to have the kernel source code in it, is there any other way to get ubuntu kernel source?
[07:35] <wols> antknight: answer my questions please
[07:35] <antknight> I did
[07:35] <Zappatta> ll
[07:35] <antknight> with sudo sh ./NVIDIA-driver
[07:35] <wols> hellslinger: I told you.apt-get source linux-image... doesn't give you anything?
[07:35] <CAsurfer> does anyone know of any computer shops that will build desktops made using only hardware with open source drivers?
[07:35] <wols> antknight: what videocard exactly. what chip?
[07:36] <UbuntuServerUser> NVM I GOt it
[07:36] <antknight> 6600
[07:36] <wols> antknight: unless in rare circumstances this is not suppported by ubuntu
[07:36] <wols> antknight: not supported by us here
[07:36] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ I got it!

[07:38] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ ok so I need to apt-get format...is there any other tool included in ubuntu server to format?
[07:38] <CAsurfer> qnyc: thanks, that's exactly what I'm looking for
[07:38] <wols> antknight: it is not supported to use nvidia.com drives directly, period
[07:38] <PanzerMKZ_> what is that wols? parted then?

[07:38] <wols> PanzerMKZ_: what is what?
[07:39] <antknight> wols, ok, thanks.
[07:39] <wols> antknight: ubotu told you what to do
[07:39] <PanzerMKZ_> wols: the command to format a drive?
[07:39] <wols> mkfs.ext3
[07:39] <wols> mkfs rather
[07:39] <PanzerMKZ_> thanks
[07:39] <UbuntuServerUser> k
[07:39] <newtubuntu> wols, I am back sorry
[07:39] <newtubuntu> did you get my paste ?
[07:39] <Nutubuntu> G'night all
[07:39] <wols> newtubuntu: yes. missing nvidia module
[07:40] <wols> newtubuntu: nothing about acpi or such. look for the (EE) errors in that paste
[07:40] <wols> newtubuntu: noapic nolapic possibly. not BIOS
[07:41] <newtubuntu> Can I do the Restricted Drivers Manager from the CD to enable the nVidia, will it 'Save' properly on the HD installation ?
[07:41] <antknight> according to the link my driver is nvidia-glx
[07:41] <antknight> er
[07:41] <gregorovius> Hi... I'm trying to compile a module (8250_pnp), but when I do 'make /drivers/serial/8250_pnp.ko' I get a .o file... can anyone help?
[07:42] <Frogzoo> PanzerMKZ_: best to use 'sudo mkfs.ext3 -T largefile /dev/sd##'
[07:42] <newtubuntu> wols: I tried all three:   linux noapic ; noapic (alone) ; and nolapic   in the boot loader and none change anything
[07:42] <wols> gregorovius: kernel-package
[07:42] <Jordan_U> newtubuntu, You can definitely do it from the liveCD and I am fairly sure that it will carry to the installed system
[07:42] <PanzerMKZ_> Frogzoo: ain't there another command to format a drive to?
[07:42] <wols> newtubuntu: why "linux". makes no sense
[07:42] <PanzerMKZ_> other then mkfs?
[07:42] <wols> newtubuntu: also, why do you care about the 8250 thing?
[07:42] <newtubuntu> wols: I had AMD64 up and running in no time. Can it be related to the fact that I have a dual core AMD64 proc and trying to install 32bits Ubuntu ?
[07:42] <Jordan_U> PanzerMKZ_, parted?
[07:42] <Frogzoo> PanzerMKZ_: like I say, that's the best way
[07:43] <PanzerMKZ_> ok
[07:43] <newtubuntu> wols:  just because Enviouz suggested it
[07:43] <PanzerMKZ_> I got to remember how I did mine
[07:43] <UbuntuServerUser> Im reading the manual
[07:43] <wols> newtubuntu: not related to that
[07:43] <adrian_> hello
[07:44] <Jordan_U> !hi | adrian_
[07:44] <ubotu> adrian_: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[07:44] <newtubuntu> wols:  error 8254 is one of the reasons why X-Window doesn't load no ?
[07:44] <wols> 8250 is the original IBM PC serial port
[07:44] <wols> 8254 or 8250? be precise!
[07:44] <adrian_> why cant i install beryl on ubuntu
[07:44] <wols> and no it'S not. the reason X doesn't load is cause you are missing the nvidia drivers
[07:44] <newtubuntu> 8254!
[07:44] <G5> hello
[07:44] <Jordan_U> adrian_, Do you use fglrx?
[07:44] <newtubuntu> I never mentioned 8250
[07:44] <adrian_> no
[07:45] <adrian_> what is that
[07:45] <wols> newtubuntu: if this paste is from you http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27369/ that is
[07:45] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_  HOws this? mkfs -v -t ext3 /dev/hdb
[07:45] <tovella> newtubuntu: i too have installed the 32bit version on a 64bit machine.  i wanted java & flash (with sound) to work from an ltsp server & 32bit was the only way i found to get it working.
[07:45] <Jordan_U> adrian_, What GFX card do you have, and what problems have you had installing beryl?
[07:45] <newtubuntu> 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC
[07:45] <gregorovius> wols, how can I make it build a single module? I can't find the option
[07:45] <newtubuntu> yes, that;s my paste
[07:45] <Magneto> Does anyone know how to rename all the files in a folder + subsequent subfolders with a different extension?
[07:45] <adrian_> i dont know how to install it and i dont know what video card i have
[07:46] <newtubuntu> tovella:  did you run into X-Window not starting errors ?
[07:46] <wols> gregorovius: you cannot and you shouldn't
[07:46] <Jordan_U> adrian_, Are you using 7.04 ( Feisty ) ?
[07:46] <adrian_> i think so
[07:47] <leagris> Please, help me, everything work fine, nothing to do. Feisty is too stable. It's boring ;D
[07:47] <tovella> newtubuntu: not at all, it works great.
[07:47] <Flannel> adrian_: You're in luck.  For a good portion of the cards, it's automated.
[07:47] <adrian_> oh
[07:47] <Jordan_U> adrian_, Try System -> Preferences -> Desktop Effects
[07:47] <QwertyM> Magneto: You'll need to learn a bit of bash commands for that .. (mv)
[07:47] <gregorovius> wols, why not? I'm using the same source tree with the same .config...
[07:47] <QwertyM> Not sure of a solution however
[07:47] <QwertyM> but thats the key
[07:47] <Magneto> nothing in Quantus?
[07:47] <adrian_> i did but it messes up and leaves a black bar on the right
[07:47] <QwertyM> Quantus ?
[07:47] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_  HOws this? mkfs -v -t ext3 /dev/hdb
[07:48] <wols> gregorovius: did you use kernel-package to compile and isntall it (I'm guessing custom kernel?)
[07:48] <Jordan_U> adrian_, Did the effects work at all?
[07:48] <Magneto> its a programming editor
[07:48] <adrian_> no
[07:48] <adrian_> well
[07:48] <gregorovius> wols, no, I'm using the stock kernel
[07:48] <adrian_> yes the cube did but it messed up the top bar
[07:48] <Jordan_U> adrian_, Try #ubuntu-effects
[07:48] <Frogzoo> leagris: I have the same problem - let me know if you find a fix
[07:48] <adrian_> iok
[07:48] <PanzerMKZ_> UbuntuServerUser: did you get the commands from earlier? I think there was a largefile in there somewhere?
[07:48] <ubuntu_> hello all. I'm currently chatting from a live cd installer of Fiesty. I've tried both a kubuntu 7.04 and  ubuntu cd with the same problem. I've got a 500gig sataII drive. This is a rather new computer and my bios and the partition software for the ubuntu installer detects it as a 500 gig hard drive. But when i try to manually set my partitions through the installer it won't let me create one larger then 68607 MB in size anyone got any
[07:48] <ubuntu_> ideas?
[07:49] <agn0stic> leagris: "sudo locate *.so | xargs rm -f" that will make things work less, if you want
[07:49] <ubuntu_> Someone here previously said check that LBA is set in bios. I couldn't find that setting.. But bios and ubuntu detects it as a 500gig hard drive
[07:49] <leagris> ;o)
[07:49] <QwertyM> Magneto: the ls command can be used to list all files of a folder and that o/p can be passed to mv command so it can rename all files it receives .. that's just my idea .. I dont know how to implement it .. :)
[07:49] <UbuntuServerUser> PanzerMKZ_ all I got was mkfs.ext3 and that didn't make any sense to me
[07:50] <andruk> rhythmbox will not play anything.  the error it gives me is "resource busy or not available"
[07:50] <Jordan_U> ubuntu_, Can you create them with gparted?
[07:50] <Jordan_U> ubuntu_, It is available on the LiveCD
[07:50] <ubuntu_> jordan_U you read my mind. I was just trying that now
[07:51] <agn0stic> andruk: something else is using your sound card, or whatnot. Either close whatever it is, or install jack (I think rythmbox can cooperate with jack)
[07:51] <andruk> agn0stic: how do i use jack?
[07:51] <agn0stic> andruk: rather jackd
[07:52] <andruk> how do i use that?
[07:52] <andruk> i have it installed
[07:52] <jupengfei> What's jack??
[07:52] <andruk> !jack
[07:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about jack - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:52] <andruk> !JACK
[07:52] <agn0stic> andruk: huh, it should be running automatically
[07:52] <agn0stic> !jackd
[07:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about jackd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:52] <leagris> agn0stic, doh, not realy, Sure I can find some minor bugs like displaying email source in thunderbird, selecting part of the source and printing only that part output tiny tiny crunched zied fonts on printer ;)
[07:52] <jupengfei> What does it use to do?
[07:52] <UbuntuServerUser> Can anyone tell me how to run command mkfs -v -t ext3 /dev/hdb    is that the proper syntax?
[07:52] <andruk> an0stic: its not
[07:52] <agn0stic> jackd is used to allow multiple things to use your sound system
[07:53] <ubuntu_> mmm gparted has no problems
[07:53] <pixelation> How does one go about copying a folder to /opt/lampp ?
[07:53] <jupengfei> oh
[07:53] <wols> agn0stic: how is jackd better than dmix?
[07:53] <paganjew> agn0stic, and why does it matter
[07:53] <andruk> i thought dmix did that
[07:54] <andruk> and jack was used to pipe audio and midi from application to application (and to yoru sound card)
[07:54] <agn0stic> wols: i don't know, I've never used dmix. andruk: it does, as well
[07:54] <bung> how do i change the window decorator theme?
[07:54] <bung> what preference ssetting
[07:54] <andruk> k...still dont know how to use it.  man jackd isnt very helpful
[07:54] <UbuntuServerUser> Can anyone tell me how to run command mkfs -v -t ext3 /dev/hdb    is that the proper syntax?
[07:55] <leagris> If you are some Kernel guru, may be you can help find a fix for this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/118310
[07:55] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: no
[07:55] <antknight> I have an observation I'd like to share.  ubuntu has no 3d effects like, emblems or characters in the system itself.
[07:55] <antknight> like for splash screens, etc
[07:55] <ubuntu_> Jordan_U:  gparted worked thanks for the suggestion
[07:55] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: you created a partition on hdb. you don't want to format the whole disk (tho it would work under linux just fine)
[07:55] <Jordan_U> ubuntu_, np
[07:56] <antknight> if wobbly windows are possible, there should be 3d effects
[07:56] <UbuntuServerUser> wols I already created a partition, now I want to format it right? Thats what Panzer suggested
[07:56] <paganjew> antknight, why should it, 3d effect requires certain hardware that certain ubuntoors may not have
[07:56] <leagris> antknight, may be you'd like to make your own set of beryl ubuntu styles and decorations?. Put a launchpad project and specifications, publish it and voila :)
[07:56] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: yes. but /dev/hdb doesn't format a partition. it formats the whole disk. and that is bad (more or less)
[07:57] <antknight> leagris, I could make the 3d but I'm no programmer
[07:57] <UbuntuServerUser> wols I want to format the whole disk and then mount it into samba so I can share stuff and add stuff to it
[07:57] <lO_osr> what's better hplip or hpjips?
[07:57] <leagris> antknight, just some decent designer work needed here
[07:57] <lO_osr> *hpijs
[07:57] <antknight> leagris, I'd be happy to help.
[07:57] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: no you don't. you you did you wouldn't have made a partition. you want to fomrat a partition only
[07:57] <lO_osr> !hplip
[07:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hplip - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:57] <wols> *if you did
[07:58] <paganjew> lO_osr, it depends on what printer you have installed
[07:58] <lO_osr> !printer
[07:58] <ubotu> Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/OpenPrinting - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[07:58] <lO_osr> paganjew: it's an allinone HP
[07:58] <paganjew> lO_osr, including fax? is it a laser or inkjet?
[07:58] <UbuntuServerUser> wols ok so what I'm hearing you say is that I don't need to format. So whats my next step in mounting it to samba?
[07:58] <someone2005> I can't believe that...
[07:58] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: your hearing is very faulty
[07:59] <lO_osr> inkjet,scanner,printer,coppymachine
[07:59] <UbuntuServerUser> rofl
[07:59] <lO_osr> paganjew: not laser jet nor fax
[07:59] <leagris> antknight, If you'd have some nice SVG ubuntu logo replacing the boring beryl crystal on 3D cube caps, that may be a good start :)
[07:59] <bung> hey im on gnome-look, am i lookin for gtk1.x or 2.x themes for ubuntu 7.04 ?
[07:59] <kandinski> hey
[07:59] <UbuntuServerUser> wols what I need to do then?
[07:59] <someone2005> did I say I can't believe that ..Just curious...
[07:59] <antknight> leagris, I was thinking actual 3d but I'll see what I can do.
[07:59] <kandinski> does feisty fawn have good NTFS write support out of the box?
[07:59] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: format the partition as I said
[07:59] <paganjew> lO_osr, use hplip it has a nice GUI
[08:00] <wols> kandinski: you need to install ot
[08:00] <UbuntuServerUser> wols how might I do that through mkfs?
[08:00] <wols> !ntfs-3g | paganjew
[08:00] <ubotu> paganjew: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[08:00] <paganjew> lO_osr, or just install them both :)
[08:00] <kandinski> I want to migrate a dual-booting laptop to a bigger hard disk, and I would have to DD the ntfs partition over to the new disk
[08:00] <Jordan_U> bung, 2.x Try art.gnome.org also
[08:00] <qnyc> lO_osr, you're going to want to run HPLIP Toolbox (hp-toolbox) to configure it, you'll need to install python-qt3 which isn't obvious (otherwise it just won't run)
[08:00] <ubuntu_> later all
[08:00] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: what is the partition you made?
[08:00] <paganjew> lO_osr, they do not conflict
[08:00] <antknight> later folks
[08:00] <kandinski> wols, do you think that would work?
[08:00] <UbuntuServerUser> wols: a linux (83) on hdb
[08:00] <qnyc> lO_osr, then just add the printer in there, it will take care of which driver
[08:00] <someone2005> deb able
[08:00] <bung> thanks Jordan_U
[08:00] <wols> kandinski: what would work?
[08:01] <kandinski> I want to migrate a dual-booting laptop to a bigger hard disk, and I would have to DD the ntfs partition over to the new disk
[08:01] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: hdb is NOT the partition you made
[08:01] <lO_osr> thanks pals, we all can be friends in the end :'-))))
[08:01] <wols> kandinski: and?
[08:01] <wols> kandinski: what has that to do with ntfs support?
[08:02] <kandinski> I would need ntfs support in order to be able to write it
[08:02] <UbuntuServerUser> wols : i did fdisk /dev/hdb then t then 83 so how I format that partition? If thats what your saying I need to do?
[08:02] <wols> kandinski: with dd?
[08:02] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: I asked you a question
[08:02] <leagris> kandinski, dd makes block copy, the NTFS would need somme fixing before beying usable on the new device.
[08:02] <Jordan_U> kandinski, dd doesn't care about FS type
[08:02] <UbuntuServerUser> wols I made a linux partition
[08:03] <wols> kandinski: after you use dd to copy the disk, run fixboot from a windows recovery console. but this is OT in here
[08:03] <UbuntuServerUser> im in CLI
[08:03] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: I know that. what is the name of that partition?
[08:03] <kandinski> wols: thanks, it is a dual boot disk after all
[08:03] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: do you know the distinction between "disk" and "partition"?
[08:03] <UbuntuServerUser> wols how Do I know the name?
[08:03] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: you crated it
[08:03] <UbuntuServerUser> wols Yes but I wasn't aware I named it
[08:04] <wols> you didn't name it, but it still has a name under which you access it
[08:04] <kandinski> Jordan_U: I see, DD can copy disks in filesystems that Ubuntu can't read or write?
[08:04] <leagris> kandinski, used dd to move a Linux system to a new disk some time ago and EXT3FS needed some fixing before it worked because I used it on greater patition sizes. Though I found it the fastest way of moving
[08:04] <wols> kandinski: yes
[08:04] <Jordan_U> kandinski, Yes, it just does a block copy
[08:04] <newtubuntu> I'm at a loss...
[08:04] <mattycoze> how many ppl use Dvorak keyboards?
[08:04] <UbuntuServerUser> wols I did exactly fdisk /dev/hdb then command t then 83 and it said "changed system type of partition 1 to 83 (linux_
[08:04] <wols> newtubuntu: about what exactly
[08:05] <paganjew> mattycoze, what ever the amount more people should be
[08:05] <newtubuntu> I tried everything I found in docs and on google, nothing works, my X-Server won't start and I get all the gribbish text on a black screen then logon in command line
[08:05] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: that doesn't create a partition. and you might have changed an existing (windows) partition to some other type. which might be bad
[08:05] <newtubuntu> this is uncomfortable for me...
[08:05] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: use cfdisk I guess. better suited for you
[08:05] <mattycoze> paganjew is it easy to learn?
[08:05] <selanit> Hiya.  I've just had a system crash, and I'd like to figure out what caused it.  It's a fully updated Kubuntu box.  I was editing an SVG document in Inkscape and listening to music in Amarok, with one Dolphin window open.  Then - the music became static and stopped, after which the keyboard and mouse were dead.  I couldn't log in via SSH, either.  I had a to do a hard reboot, which is annoying.  How can I track down the source of t
[08:05] <selanit> he error so I can file a bug report?
[08:05] <wols> newtubuntu: I told you. you fscked up your nvidia install
[08:05] <Jordan_U> newtubuntu, What GFX card and did it ever work?
[08:05] <wols> !nvidia | newtubuntu
[08:05] <ubotu> newtubuntu: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:06] <UbuntuServerUser> wols: all I see in here is hda1 and hda5 my ext3 and linux swap my second HDD isn't in here :(
[08:06] <wols> Selanit: possibly kern.log or syslog. but chances are slim. and if you use proprietary drivers (fglrx or nvidia) no one will or can help you anyways
[08:06] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: where?
[08:06] <newtubuntu> wols:  how and where did I ?  Do you suggest I re-install Ubuntu from scratch ?  If so, where can I make sure it will install my inVidia properly ?
[08:06] <UbuntuServerUser> wols cfdisk
[08:07] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: cfdisk /dev/hdb
[08:07] <Selanit> wols: Well, I'm using nvidia, and the system logs appear to be clean - so I guess I'm out of luck.
[08:07] <wols> newtubuntu: no I don't suggest a reinstall. this is not windows. fix your nvidia install. nvidia didn't install on its own
[08:07] <UbuntuServerUser> wols ah now were getting somewhere...for some reason its still NTFS
[08:07] <wols> newtubuntu: and ubotu gave you a link
[08:07] <UbuntuServerUser> wols delete and create linux?
[08:07] <cyberalleyguy> can anyone help me with a network install via my local mirror?
[08:08] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: I don't know what you want to do. and I won't hand hold you either. think for yourself. just a little tiny bit
[08:08] <mcquaid> i only recently upgraded to fiesty. previously, i had two ubuntu boxes (one dapper, one edgy) using samba to share files
[08:08] <newtubuntu> wols:  I don't understand when people type:  !something | newtubuntu     where am I suppose to type this ?
[08:08] <wols> !ask | cyberalleyguy
[08:08] <ubotu> cyberalleyguy: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:08] <someone2005> bbl..
[08:08] <mcquaid> i since upgraded the edgy box and now samba only works one way
[08:08] <wols> newtubuntu: nowhere. ubotu told you something just after that ! line
[08:08] <mcquaid> the feisty box can read the dapper box but not the other way around
[08:09] <UbuntuServerUser> what does write partition to disk mean?
[08:09] <wols> mcquaid: error messages are something awesome
[08:09] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: it means to actually write changes to disk
[08:09] <UbuntuServerUser> diff then formating?
[08:09] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: have you fomratted anywhere?
[08:10] <cyberalleyguy> i thought i did
[08:10] <UbuntuServerUser> no
[08:10] <leagris> Selanit, doing crash probes and debuging require specially crafted and managed environment. There are few chances you can do it because so many components and special multitasking conditions may trigger a crash bug. You have a chance if the crash repeat and you can identify in which condition of use. By the way you could discuss it on the #kubuntu room and search the web and launchpad for an already exsisting reported bug.
[08:10] <UbuntuServerUser> just changed type to linux
[08:10] <UbuntuServerUser> its now listed as linux
[08:10] <mcquaid> yes errors are awesome.  but just a pretty generic samba error of the network not being found
[08:10] <wols> mcquaid: smbclient -L <ip of other machine>
[08:11] <newtubuntu> wols:  I know it's not windows, but IF I re-installed, would the be an easier way for me to make sure the nvidia will install properly ?
[08:11] <UbuntuServerUser> as hdb1
[08:11] <wols> newtubuntu: no
[08:11] <wols> newtubuntu: what did you do to install nvidia drives?
[08:11] <wols> *drivers
[08:11] <newtubuntu> wols:  nothing
[08:11] <wols> newtubuntu: I don't believe you
[08:11] <Selanit> leagris: It's happened three or four times now.  I suspect the culprit is Inkscape, but I don't have any particular evidence or debug data.  Perhaps I should find out if Inkscape has a debug mode or something that will generate data when it fails.
[08:11] <wols> newtubuntu: what exact ubuntu version?
[08:12] <newtubuntu> Feisty Fawn 7.04 32bits
[08:12] <Jordan_U> newtubuntu, Did you get a message that Ubuntu was using restricted drivers?
[08:12] <leagris> newtubuntu, using the proprietary driver manager in the System menu or installing nvidia-glx package that drag all required dependencies.
[08:12] <wols> newtubuntu: no ubuntu CD can ship with nvidia drivers cause it would be a GPL violation. which is why you have to install it optionally
[08:12] <Jordan_U> wols, It can, and it does
[08:12] <wols> newtubuntu: die you use something like ency, automatix, or some other script?
[08:12] <wols> Jordan_U: how so?
[08:12] <newtubuntu> no but I tried fixing things up (5 minutes ago) with the Restricted Driver Manager (from the LiveCD), but it didn't change a thing
[08:13] <wols> Jordan_U: being a GPL violation and all...
[08:13] <newtubuntu> no, I know nothing about those scripts
[08:13] <Jordan_U> wols, It is not enabled by default, and it is arguable that it is not a GPL violation either way
[08:13] <wols> Jordan_U: it ships together with GPL software. GPL violation
[08:13] <Selanit> Sigh.  Well, at least I saved shortly before the crash.  Saving is a Good Thing.(TM)
[08:13] <wols> Jordan_U: and it it's not enabled by default, he did install it somewhow by an action of his. no automatic install
[08:14] <newtubuntu> how do I get my nvidia information to know extacly what card I have and what driver to install ?
[08:14] <Selanit> Thanks anyway, people.
[08:14] <wols> !nvidia | newtubuntu
[08:14] <ubotu> newtubuntu: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:14] <UbuntuServerUser> why does GPL matter and why not just make it easier for user so ubuntu can take over windows?
[08:14] <greatcaffeine> Is there a working driver for 8800s yet?
[08:14] <Jordan_U> wols, No, it is automatic, it warns you though and gives you the option of using it
[08:14] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: cause without the GPL you wouldn't be allowed to use ubuntu or any other linux. copyright violation
[08:14] <mcquaid> wols, one thing I notice from that is the workgroups are different
[08:15] <wols> mcquaid: that usually does it the way you use ti
[08:15] <wols> mcquaid: edit /etc/samba/smb.conf and restart samba
[08:15] <mcquaid> but I believe that only effects windows
[08:15] <tommy_> Question: how much space (in mb) is needed to install ubuntu?, whats the minimum needed
[08:15] <UbuntuServerUser> 4 gigs
[08:15] <Flannel> tommy_: about 2GB
[08:15] <wols> mcquaid: connection by IP of course still works
[08:15] <Jordan_U> wols, The drivers don't link directly to the kernel, they use "open source" wrappers, it is a technicality but it is legal AFAIK
[08:15] <tommy_> Thanks
[08:15] <mcquaid> yes by ip is fine
[08:15] <wols> tooth: google Ubuntu system requirements
[08:16] <tommy_> Can someone please name a distro that can fit on my 256mb usb?
[08:16] <tommy_> will xubuntu fit?
[08:16] <ali1234> tommy_: slax
[08:16] <leagris> Selanit, a deadlock crash is rare and may be caused by bad hardware conditions as well. Editing SVG may require some parts of bad RAM, trigger AGP PCI-E race condition in communication... Wat you'd like to do is clean up other components as much as possible. Using reduced desktop environment or no desktop manager just plain Xwindow and just display Iknscape. Trying with different kind of SVG files ...
[08:16] <wols> Jordan_U: that doesn't matter. it ships prorpietary and non GPLed software as a bundly. big no no
[08:16] <jettred2001> how can I get more space on my computer
[08:16] <Phrozen_One> hows Ubuntu's dev team coming on making easier to configure and use admin tools for common server duties such as file, print, dns, dhcp, etc. servers?
[08:16] <Jordan_U> tommy_, DSL will fit in 50
[08:16] <greatcaffeine> tommy_: www.slackware.com
[08:16] <nj786> how do u open a .rar file?
[08:16] <wols> Jordan_U: and there are lots of kernel devs who dispute your interpretation. and they actually have a copyright on the kernel
[08:16] <Flannel> tommy_: probably not.  You'll want a liveCD based distro anyway.  Better liveCD experiences when your distro is geared for it
[08:16] <cyberalleyguy> where can i get some info on net install using a local mirror
[08:16] <MISTERTibbs> jettred2001, what os do u have installed
[08:16] <wols> nj786: install unrar or unrar-nonfree
[08:17] <jettred2001> os??
[08:17] <nj786> wols_, from?
[08:17] <wols> greatcaffeine: do not advertise other distros in here like that please
[08:17] <MISTERTibbs> jettred2001, operating systems
[08:17] <wols> nj786: from your repos?
[08:17] <greatcaffeine> sorry
[08:17] <tommy_> alright then THANK YOU, you people are great!
[08:17] <nj786> wols, sorry repos?
[08:17] <wols> nj786: where dou you install stuff from?
[08:17] <Jordan_U> wols, It is not my interpretation, I am just telling you why / how they are there, and they are there, there is no disputing that
[08:17] <nj786> synaptic?
[08:17] <MISTERTibbs> jettred2001, windows xp or ubuntu all alone
[08:17] <imbecile> ok guys, no help in #azureus  .. can someone pleeeeeeeaaaassssseeeeee help me... ive been running into roadblocks all day  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27375/
[08:17] <jettred2001> ubuntu
[08:18] <nj786> wols, synaptic?
[08:18] <greatcaffeine> Anyone know if Nvidia has released a working 8800 driver yet?
[08:18] <wols> Jordan_U: as I said: some kernel devs differ and there is a dispute
[08:18] <MISTERTibbs> jettred2001, how many gigs on your HD
[08:18] <Jordan_U> wols, I know
[08:18] <newtubuntu> wols:  I am sorry, this is beyond my competencies.  :(
[08:18] <jettred2001> 825 total
[08:18] <nj786> wols, i am a newbie so sorry.....
[08:18] <Phrozen_One> whats the status on ease of use on administrating ubuntu server for different roles?
[08:18] <jettred2001> 8.5
[08:18] <newtubuntu> I don't even understand what they are talking about
[08:18] <UbuntuServerUser> Phrozen_one hard as hell
[08:19] <Vletmix> How can I get an icon for the trash and for my home folder on my desktop?
[08:19] <Flannel> Phrozen_One: Good?  The text is so pretty.
[08:19] <MISTERTibbs> jettred2001, 825 GIGS? why do u need MORE room?
[08:19] <jettred2001> no 8.5
[08:19] <Jordan_U> imbecile, What version of Java are you running?
[08:19] <oscar232> Do the 8-series nvidia cards work with ubuntu?  Or is there a list of video cards from nvidia that are known to work?
[08:19] <newtubuntu> is there a way to probe my card to know PRECISELY what model number I have, then maybe I could find something on NVidia's Website ?
[08:19] <Phrozen_One> well as soon as *nix gets to a point where it has gui config tools for common server duties, there will be a wave of new users
[08:19] <MISTERTibbs> jettred2001, oh.  damn!  small.   what do u want your machine to be able to do?
[08:19] <jettred2001> and I have 3.3mb
[08:19] <wols> newtubuntu: make at least an effort to install it. I won't do your work for you when you are lazy. have specific questions
[08:20] <wols> nj786: you install it from the same place like everything else
[08:20] <ddonky> how can i search my roomies windows share for a certain file?
[08:20] <Jordan_U> newtubuntu, lspci
[08:20] <greatcaffeine> oscar232: Depends on what you need to do, really...  Mine is working with the basic "nv" driver right now, but I can't get a real nvidia driver to work.
[08:20] <Flannel> Phrozen_One: Servers generally don't run GUIs, because they're a waste of cycles.  As such, GUI administration utilities aren't exactly in high demand.
[08:20] <jettred2001> to play roller coaster tycoon
[08:20] <Music_Shuffle> oscar232, almost all do, pretty much.
[08:20] <newtubuntu> wols:  I'm not lazy, I don't have this competency!
[08:20] <imbecile> Jordan_U,  all kinds of random packages.. i dont really know what im doing.. what ones do i need just for azureus and firefox? thats all i really need i suppose
[08:20] <matason> Hi, I have Ubuntu 7.04 on an IBM X31, I plugged in a usb keyboard last week (it's not plugged in now) and my laptop keyboard hasn't worked right since, the num lock light is on constantly, when I boot num lock is on, num lock comes on intermittently - any ideas how I can fix this?
[08:20] <Flannel> Phrozen_One: although, if you do want GUI stuff, there are some.
[08:20] <Phrozen_One> Flannel, I understand that, but why not some type of remote admin utlity working over ssh
[08:20] <wols> Phrozen_One: it will also be a time when the number of spamzombie servers dramatically increases
[08:20] <Jordan_U> imbecile, Remove blackdown java
[08:20] <oscar232> I tried the 8600 this morning and it didn't work ... either with the nv or the nvidia driver
[08:20] <leagris> Vletmix, http://linux.about.com/od/ubuntu_doc/a/ubudg10t16.htm
[08:21] <wols> newtubuntu: then acquire it. you acquire it by trying and reading documentation
[08:21] <Flannel> Phrozen_One: Because things like webmin are stupid.  But they do exist, unfortunately.
[08:21] <navets> can anyone tell me a  good php debugger
[08:21] <nj786> wols, im guessing add/removie or synaptic?
[08:21] <MISTERTibbs> jettred2001, well, you COULD use partition magic to shrink the system.  that would give u some room
[08:21] <UbuntuServerUser> flannel remote GUI do they have it for WEB?
[08:21] <nj786> remove
[08:21] <wols> nj786: yes. which is the same thing
[08:21] <matason> I should also mention I'm using Gnome
[08:21] <jettred2001> ok
[08:21] <UbuntuServerUser> flannel why don't you like web admin?
[08:21] <nj786> wols, ok what do i type in synaptic?>
[08:21] <someone2005> ubuntu any good ?
[08:21] <UbuntuServerUser> ssh is confusing hell out of me
[08:21] <wols> nj786: nothing. you read the documentation for synaptic so you can learn how to use it
[08:21] <jettred2001> how would I do that
[08:21] <mcquaid> wols, i changed both smb.confs to workgroup but one is still reporting HOME when doing smbclient -L
[08:21] <oscar232> All I need is beryl/compiz (no games), but I am also driving a 30" (apple cinema) display, so I need dual-dvi
[08:21] <MISTERTibbs> jettred2001, OR u could go by your local goodwill, pcfixx or other computer salvage/resale store and buy a larger HDD
[08:21] <wols> mcquaid: I said "and restart samba"
[08:22] <oscar232> (or rather, dual-link dvi)
[08:22] <ali1234> oscar232: the aiglx page has a compatibility list
[08:22] <Jordan_U> !synaptic | nj786
[08:22] <someone2005> correct...
[08:22] <oscar232> thanks, ali
[08:22] <ubotu> nj786: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[08:22] <someone2005> above...
[08:22] <MISTERTibbs> jettred2001, u can probably download partition magic or similar - google it
[08:22] <wols> oscar232: what exact gf8 do you have?
[08:22] <jettred2001> that would be easy if i had the money
[08:22] <leagris> Flannel, webmin was good at times you'd like newbe admins to manage a remote Linux box server. Nowadays, I'd call Webmin a nightmare and security threat.
[08:22] <wols> MISTERTibbs: no need for that
[08:22] <wols> MISTERTibbs: and he'd have to pay for it
[08:22] <Flannel> Phrozen_One: With servers and configuration, editing text files is about as friendly as any GUI-sort of thing would be.  Since all you're doing is toggling/tweaking options.  Any GUI with adequate freedom/expression would be just as intimidating to GUI-people as a text file.
[08:22] <MISTERTibbs> wols, suggestions??
[08:22] <oscar232> jettred2001 ... I left it at the office, but I think it was the 8600 gto
[08:22] <mcquaid> wols, yes restarted samba on both
[08:22] <ddonky> i connected to it by samba, and its mounted on the desktop, but i want to see all mp3s by a certain artist
[08:22] <wols> jettred2001: use gparted on the ubuntu live cd
[08:23] <wols> mcquaid: how exactly?
[08:23] <Flannel> leagris: I think you mean UbuntuServerUser, but yes.  Read what he said, UbuntuServerUser.
[08:23] <Phrozen_One> Flannel, where I would appreciate gui utils is for things such as LDAP that are very intimidating
[08:23] <nj786> wols, can  install unrar and unrar free? and what is the difference between the two?
[08:23] <mcquaid> wols, /etc/init.d/samba restart
[08:23] <nj786> can i8
[08:23] <matason> It also happens cross application so it's not something specific to an appplication
[08:23] <MISTERTibbs> jettred2001, DOH!  wols is so right.  i forgot gparted comes with the cd.  sorry
[08:23] <casey_> xbins
[08:23] <randoman_> hey guys what are all the packags I need installed to make and ./configure files
[08:23] <randoman_> ?
[08:23] <wols> nj786: one is free the to other is not. non-free can use the latest rar archive vresions. the free one can't
[08:23] <DjKoRn`> !bin wifi

[08:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bin ispconfig - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:24] <Flannel> Phrozen_One: There are LDAP gui things.  Just like there are Mysql gui things.  They all run locally, and connect to remote hosts through the normal methods.  Those sorts of things aren't abnormal, nor are they 'configruing' usually, just data manipulation.
[08:24] <wols> DjKoRn`: learn how to use the bot and I aleady told you where to look
[08:24] <jettred2001> ok hold on
[08:24] <wols> cman355: there is no !bin.
[08:25] <randoman_> man im a moron
[08:25] <randoman_> I though i installed that package

[08:25] <newtubuntu> Jordan_U ; wols:  could you have a look at my lspci pastebin:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27376/

[08:25] <GameSpot> I have installed my new harddrive, it is located in media/storage
[08:26] <randoman_> thanks
[08:26] <wols> newtubuntu: and?
[08:26] <leagris> UbuntuServerUser, webmin is a huge set of plugins, CGI scripts quite hard to maintain and not always quite aware of proper ways of modifying configurations files according to the distribution Ubuntu rules. It is a potential source of remote exploits and so a security threat unless you know carefully what it is doing, what modules it uses, whou can use what functions and maintain it upt to date carefully.
[08:26] <GameSpot> how do i make a short cut to this harddrive on my desktop so i can add my music into it
[08:26] <randoman_> !packages
[08:26] <ubotu> You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, "apt-cache search <keywords>", the "apt:/" URL in KDE, or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu has about 20000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways!
[08:26] <GameSpot> anyone here?
[08:26] <wols> GameSpot: no, we are all aslepp
[08:26] <tyler446> I installed ubuntu 6.06 how can I change it to xubuntu 7.04?
[08:26] <GameSpot> wols
[08:26] <GameSpot> how do i make a short cut to my new harddrive on my desktop
[08:26] <Flannel> tyler446: did you just install 6.06?
[08:26] <newtubuntu> wols:  in the pastebin, what represents my card model number so I can know what driver to install ?
[08:26] <GameSpot> i just mounted it
[08:26] <wols> tyler446: upgrade to 6.10, then upgrade to 7.04
[08:27] <tyler446> flannel: yes
[08:27] <UbuntuServerUser> wols yes
[08:27] <Flannel> tyler446: If it's a fresh install, your shortest (time and bandwidth) is to download 7.04, and install that.
[08:27] <wols> newtubuntu: it's a geforce6 series card. all nvidia drivers currently in ubuntu will work for you
[08:27] <tyler446> flannel: I tried installing xubuntu-desktop but everything is all old and crappy
[08:27] <Jordan_U> newtubuntu, nVidia Corporation C51 PCI Express Bridge (rev a2) <--- that is your GFX card
[08:27] <UbuntuServerUser> wols trying to mount samba server via smbfs
[08:27] <UbuntuServerUser> samba share*
[08:27] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: good
[08:27] <Flannel> tyler446: If you want xubuntu, when you download 7.04, download xubuntu instead of ubuntu.  So you can do both in one fell swoop.
[08:27] <newtubuntu> wols:  I install any nvidia driver and it will work ?
[08:28] <tyler446> flannel: I used instlux to install ubuntu because every other boot method will not work
[08:28] <wols> newtubuntu: you can install the latest one in ubuntu
[08:28] <UbuntuServerUser> @ leagris thanks for info
[08:28] <Phrozen_One> anyone in here have experience installing Ubuntu workstation images over the wire?
[08:28] <Flannel> tyler446: so, use instlux to install 7.04 too.  If you'd feel more comfortable upgrading, see the following link.
[08:28] <cman355> ubuntu on tap!

[08:28] <Jordan_U> !anyone | GameSpot
[08:28] <ubotu> GameSpot: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?

[08:29] <wols> Flannel: funny speak for "netinstall" I guess
[08:29] <Phrozen_One> okay, anyone have a single sign on solution with ubuntu?
[08:29] <GameSpot> I installed a new harddrive, its mounted/in media, but when i try to add music, it says permission denied, you do not have access
[08:29] <tyler446> flannel: I did a net install of ubuntu 6.06 over top windows because cd, usb, floppy, and every other boot method doesn't work on this crappy laptop :)
[08:29] <celvin> Hello!
[08:30] <celvin> Any body knows where ir seveas?
[08:30] <leagris> Phrozen_One, nope, you could have a look at UDPcast if you need to install several Workkstation images via a LAN. Use multicast optimized transmission to duplicate disk images. Install one box, replicate it instantly to thouzands of box with on multicast transmitter.
[08:30] <wols> !seveas

[08:30] <GameSpot> is there really that long of a line
[08:30] <jmak642> can anyone point me to a reference on how to set mount points for my hard disks and how to get them to automount?  is it safe to just edit /etc/fstab still?  I see my primary partition /dev/sdc1 is commented out in there, so i got the sense that it would be a bad idea
[08:30] <tyler446> flannel: dude are you a bot?
[08:30] <oscar232> Anybody know how the NVIDIA 7-series compares to the 8-series for ubuntu/linux/beryl performance?  I can easily get 7xxx to work, but not 8xxx, and can't decide if it's worth the effort to try to get the 8xxx working

[08:32] <UbuntuServerUser> thanks ;)
[08:32] <wols> GameSpot: drag+drop it
[08:32] <GameSpot> it says persmission dnied
[08:32] <jmak642> so the #/dev/sdc1 is just a label for the uuid?
[08:32] <Phrozen_One> GameSpot, thats a very nub question
[08:32] <jmak642> got it
[08:32] <GameSpot> it says permission denied, you cannot write to this oflder
[08:33] <leagris> GameSpot, what fimesystem on your new harddrive?
[08:33] <Phrozen_One> GameSpot, use sudo on the console
[08:33] <wols> GameSpot: then you haven't set the permissions right on your mountpoint
[08:33] <GameSpot> its ext3
[08:33] <leagris> GameSpot, Filesystem
[08:33] <celvin> wols, whi?
[08:33] <leagris> ok
[08:33] <MISTERTibbs> Phrozen_One, we all learn in our own time.  back off
[08:33] <celvin> why?
[08:33] <GameSpot> how do i set persmissions
[08:33] <GameSpot> do i use chown?

[08:33] <Phrozen_One> MISTERTibbs, point taken
[08:33] <leagris> GameSpot, whas this EXT3 filesystem created on the same box?
[08:33] <GameSpot> i cant, it says permission denied, you cannot write
[08:33] <jmak642> last question would be, can i set a mount point inside my home directory? like /home/jmak/Smut
[08:33] <newtubuntu> wols: my lack of knowledge is not for lack of effort. Look:   As of Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) the recommended way to install the binary drivers is to use System  Administration  Restricted Devices Manager.
[08:33] <Jordan_U> jmak642, Yes
[08:33] <Flannel> GameSpot: READ the links ubotu gives you.  theyre informative, and you're attempting to learn linux, remember?
[08:33] <someone2005> ok
[08:33] <jmak642> sweet, thanks folks
[08:34] <newtubuntu> I did this, from the LiveCD, but it doesn<t seem to apply to the HD system
[08:34] <wols> newtubuntu: good. now we're getting somewher. and what is your problem with that?
[08:34] <oscar232> ubuntu 7.04 install, manual partitioning option is really strange:  it doesn't let you create large partitions.  Anybody else experience this?  I have a 500GB disk, tried to create a 8GB swap, and rest as '/', but it kept automatically reducing my desired '/' size to ~60GB... I ended up using the automatic partitioner, but this was weird because I have installed ubuntu 7.04 server many times and it always let me do what I wanted (jus
[08:34] <GameSpot> basically, I have ubuntu on another HD, I added a new HD for storage and made a partition ext3. I mounted it and added it into media/storage
[08:34] <helloyo> can i determine what /dev/ location my usb connected phone is at?
[08:34] <GameSpot> when I try to add files into it, it says permission denied, you cannot write
[08:34] <MISTERTibbs> Flannel, u mean we have to R T F M?  I AM shocked!  Almost too shocked for words!
[08:34] <wols> newtubuntu: why do you want to use nvidia on the livecd?
[08:34] <Flannel> newtubuntu: Right. Whatever you install on the liveCD doesn't transfer to your real system, you'll have to reinstall them after install
[08:34] <imbecile> can someone please help me? here is my azureus errors http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27377/    #azureus wont help me because they say its not an official release

[08:34] <GameSpot> wow
[08:34] <wols> GameSpot: set your permissions right on the mountpoint
[08:34] <GameSpot> just tell me
[08:34] <GameSpot> its going to take like 5 secs
[08:34] <Flannel> MISTERTibbs: No, not rtfm.  That's not polite.
[08:35] <GameSpot> how would i set the write permissions
[08:35] <MISTERTibbs> read the friendly manual
[08:35] <wols> imbecile: what port does azureus want to listen on?
[08:35] <Jordan_U> newtubuntu, You can however install from the LiveCD to your HD install with chroot
[08:35] <newtubuntu> wols:  THAT is my question, I don't find ANY information on how to install a driver after the install
[08:35] <MISTERTibbs> read the fine manaul
[08:35] <imbecile> wols, 6881 i believe
[08:35] <wols> newtubuntu: you just told me how to do it via restricted drivers. the live CD is not "installed
[08:35] <MISTERTibbs> Flannel, u must have a dirty mind, lol!
[08:35] <Jordan_U> newtubuntu, System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager ?
[08:35] <wols> imbecile: sudo netstat -anp |grep LIST
[08:36] <gaten> where do i change what application is launched when i press my little music key?
[08:36] <Flannel> !mediakeys | gaten
[08:36] <matason> Is there a way to tell which files are changed on plugging in a usb device?
[08:36] <wols> newtubuntu: you have ubuntu on your harrddisk installed and running?
[08:36] <gaten> !mediakeys
[08:36] <ubotu> gaten: Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts (Gnome) or "Input Actions" in KControl (KDE). If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try keytouch - http://keytouch.sourceforge.net
[08:36] <leagris> GameSpot, EXT3 manages user rights using UID and GID. IF you plug some disk created with another system. UID and GID may not match your current user. You'd have to a) synk UID GID across systems or create some directory with proper UID GID and access rights on the new disk using a privileged user. Like with sudo on console or opening file manager with root privileges.
[08:36] <mcquaid> wols, it's weird it's still reporting home instead of workgroup.  /etc/init.d/samba restart should be sufficient, correct?
[08:36] <wols> newtubuntu: if not: boot from it and on the commandline, log in and run "sudo dpkg-reconfiugre xserver-xorg." then run "startx"
[08:37] <wols> mcquaid: did you do it as root?
[08:37] <mcquaid> yes
[08:37] <gaten> Flannel: actually i need to change the application it launces. the option is "launch media player", which launces rythm box. i want to launch banshee
[08:37] <GameSpot> ??
[08:37] <wols> mcquaid: then it does
[08:37] <Skycloud> I'm having a problem installing ndiswrapper, Whats a good pastebin so I can show you the errors I'm getting?
[08:37] <imbecile> wols, yeah its 6881. did you read my pastebin?

[08:37] <wols> imbecile: I did. paste the 6881 line

[08:37] <oscar232> anyone else have problems doing manual disk partitions for ubuntu desktop 7.04, with large hard disks?
[08:37] <wols> newtubuntu: i told you
[08:37] <someone2005> whats the default Permission ?
[08:38] <coraline> what's your umask?
[08:38] <GameSpot> how do i create user access to my new harddrive, should i use chown? its located in media/storage and it says i cannot write to it because permission is denied. thanks
[08:38] <MISTERTibbs> oscar232, I did 80 gigs no problems
[08:38] <wols> newtubuntu: in the dpkg-reconfigure UI choose either nv or vesa
[08:38] <coraline> man chown
[08:38] <Flannel> gaten: Well, check that menu first.  If it doesn't call Rhythm box directly, and launches something like "media-player" or something, let me know.  We'll go from there.
[08:38] <coraline> man chmod
[08:38] <GameSpot> what command would i type in man chown
[08:38] <oscar232> mistertibbs ... it kept reducing the size down to about 60GB, but I wanted >400GB
[08:38] <Ausicaemia> I have yet another query, is there anyway to tell Ubuntu to stop resuming saved sessions?
[08:38] <UbuntuServerUser> Via CLI how do I see whats in a directory? Its not listed https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/basic-commands/C/ar01s03.html#id2497610
[08:38] <wols> GameSpot: none. you read what's written there
[08:38] <oscar232> I wonder if it has some weird heuristic about super large paritions
[08:38] <wols> or:

[08:38] <MISTERTibbs> oscar232, weird.  by any chance are u dual booting
[08:38] <Flannel> GameSpot: We've given you the answer.  We'e been giving you the answer all night, multiple times.  You're being belligerent and generally unpleasant.  Please stop.
[08:38] <Ausicaemia> I saved a session, and Ubuntu keeps resuming with that window/app configuration
[08:39] <Skycloud> Alright heres the problem I'm having when I try to install ndiswrapper, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27378/
[08:39] <Ausicaemia> and I don't want it to, so is there a way to tell it to stop? Haha.
[08:39] <oscar232> not dual booting, but I did have 2 disks (each was 500GB)
[08:39] <UbuntuServerUser> gamespot, I had same problem and couldn't understand it
[08:39] <UbuntuServerUser> its not just you man
[08:39] <mcquaid> hmm, it seems workgroup  = blah doesn't actually change the workgroup, but the domain
[08:39] <GameSpot> so how do i fix it
[08:39] <oscar232> works fine with server install
[08:39] <gaten> Flannel: it says "Launch Media player". there is no option to define "media player"
[08:39] <wols> Skycloud: why do you compile it yourself?
[08:39] <oscar232> just not desktop
[08:39] <UbuntuServerUser> idk never figured it out
[08:39] <newtubuntu> wols:  the instructions you are giving me are to be run from here (LiveCD) or from my command line when Ubuntu fails to boot X-Window ?
[08:39] <nj786> why do i have a folded paper icon for IE>
[08:39] <Ausicaemia> gamespot: Its probably a FSTAB problem.
[08:39] <nj786> ?
[08:39] <GameSpot> this channel is a joke, i come here for help, and everyone gives me links to more useless vocabulary terms i do not understand, i mean seriously, just help me and stop giving me 100s of links.
[08:39] <wols> newtubuntu: commandline
[08:39] <oscar232> I don't think I like the desktop install ... I'm going to try the alternate install tomorrow
[08:39] <Skycloud> wols: I don't know another way to get it I tried wget ndiswrapper, but it wasn't there
[08:40] <wols> Ausicaemia: not with a ext3 partition
[08:40] <MISTERTibbs> oscar232, sorry.  i'm officially out of my depth with your issue
[08:40] <wols> Skycloud: there is no wget
[08:40] <coraline> GameSpot: Linux is too complicated for you.  Use Windows or MacOS X.
[08:40] <wols> Skycloud: ndiswrapper is in ubuntu
[08:40] <Ausicaemia> Oh so his archive thing is an EXT3 partition?
[08:40] <oscar232> ok, no worries.
[08:40] <imbecile> wols, its not running right now so nothing is open
[08:40] <Skycloud> wols: I don't know the command, I can't remember
[08:40] <UbuntuServerUser> So much for ubuntu taking over windows
[08:40] <Skycloud> wols: it is??

[08:40] <someone2005> Yup...
[08:40] <oscar232> My guess is it uses a different partitioner program (or rather a wrapper program) for the desktop
[08:40] <Flannel> gaten: Er... the "Launch Media Player" isn't just a text for whatever the command is?  Interesting.  Um.  Oh.  It might be in gconf.  you'll want to install 'gconf-editor' and then run that, and look for where that might be.
[08:40] <MISTERTibbs> ditto what ubotu said
[08:40] <Skycloud> wols: when I try to use ndiswrapper command it says: Command not found

[08:40] <GameSpot> wow
[08:40] <osiris_> UbuntuServerUser: What's that supposed to mean>?
[08:40] <oscar232> and maybe it has some kind of math error were it wasn't expecting big disks
[08:41] <GameSpot> im switching to fedora
[08:41] <gaten> Flannel: right, good idea. thanks
[08:41] <GameSpot> this is ridiculous
[08:41] <GameSpot> no one helps
[08:41] <comicinker> help! I have a problems with my services
[08:41] <newtubuntu> wols:  sorry to be anal, but will Terminal's command line in here do ?  Or I have to LEAVE the CD ?
[08:41] <wols> imbecile: well, it said it cannot bind to socket. that is your error
[08:41] <Ausicaemia> LOL Fedora.
[08:41] <coraline> I did help.
[08:41] <osiris_> GameSpot: Good luck with fedora heh
[08:41] <coraline> Linux is too complicated for you.
[08:41] <Ausicaemia> Fedora is only useful for servers.
[08:41] <coraline> There is no shame in that.
[08:41] <UbuntuServerUser> lol
[08:41] <wols> newtubuntu: boot from hdd
[08:41] <Skycloud> !synaptic
[08:41] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[08:41] <coraline> Buy a book and read
[08:41] <leagris> newtubuntu, what you could do is boot your installed ubnuto without gfx. Login on console, do a sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and select the nv (free nvidia gfx driver) then it will be able to load the gfx desktop. Doe a sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart. Then while in the gfx mode again it will be easier for you to go to the restricted driver manager.
[08:41] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot: Not every question can be answered, and not every problem can be solved.
[08:41] <coraline> and in a few weeks, try again.
[08:41] <osiris_> GameSpot: Good luck with yum and RPM's heh
[08:41] <GameSpot> so your saying i cant host servers on desktop editiong
[08:41] <GameSpot> of ubuntu
[08:41] <Jordan_U> GameSpot, We are not paid to help you, I would have gladly held your hand throughout if I didn't think you could do it yourself of if you weren't so impolite
[08:41] <imbecile> wols,  is that why it doesnt open?
[08:41] <coraline> just buy a book and learn more first.
[08:42] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot: Additionally, not everyone possesses the knowledge to solve everything.
[08:42] <coraline> then try again.
[08:42] <comicinker> the entry for adminstrating services from my gnome panel disappeared
[08:42] <UbuntuServerUser> Wheres Linus?
[08:42] <wols> imbecile: It seems so. als what ubuntu version do you run?
[08:42] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot: So stop whining, do some research yourself, and ask again later
[08:42] <gaten> GameSpot: yes you can host servers on desktop addition
[08:42] <Flannel> GameSpot: we said nothing of the sort.  Linux makes no distinction between "Desktops" or "Servers", they're all just programs.
[08:42] <coraline> Linux is very complicated and is not the right OS for everyone.
[08:42] <Ausicaemia> Maybe then somebody who knows can help you.
[08:42] <MISTERTibbs> Ubuntu Linux for Dummies available at Amazon
[08:42] <imbecile> wols,  feisty
[08:42] <wols> Ausicaemia: we told him multiple times where to look. he's just too lazy to read that
[08:42] <Ausicaemia> Fedora does make a stable server distro.
[08:42] <osiris_> GameSpot: What's your problem?
[08:42] <MISTERTibbs> Google ubuntu ebooks for fre online books
[08:42] <wols> imbecile: then why do you run java1.4?
[08:42] <comicinker> can somebody help me with that problem?
[08:42] <wols> !java | imbecile
[08:42] <ubotu> imbecile: 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
[08:42] <GameSpot> i think im gonna switch to fedora core
[08:42] <brad016> how do you make a program run at startup?
[08:42] <GameSpot> it looks cooler
[08:43] <Ausicaemia> ^"Looks Cooler" hahahaha
[08:43] <imbecile> wols,  i dunno.. im a newb
[08:43] <Skycloud> wols: Thanks, I'm installing now
[08:43] <osiris_> heh
[08:43] <Flannel> GameSpot: Go ahead.  Linux is all about choice.
[08:43] <Ausicaemia> Wow, my god.
[08:43] <UbuntuServerUser> anyone know how I can get a list of directorys in CLI ?
[08:43] <wols> GameSpot: have fun
[08:43] <GameSpot> Flannel,
[08:43] <randoman_> man my computer is slow as shit for somereason
[08:43] <GameSpot> what would you suggest
[08:43] <wols> imbecile: read
[08:43] <Flannel> UbuntuServerUser: 'ls'? Or what do you mean?
[08:43] <GameSpot> ubuntu, fedora, or mandrake
[08:43] <UbuntuServerUser> no
[08:43] <Skycloud> wols: So not many people compile from source code anymore then?
[08:43] <GameSpot> which is the best
[08:43] <UbuntuServerUser> directorys not files
[08:43] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: man ls
[08:43] <oscar232> UbuntuServerUser: "type ls"
[08:43] <osiris_> GameSpot: Ubuntu all the way!
[08:43] <Jordan_U> !best | GameSpot
[08:43] <ubotu> GameSpot: 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.
[08:43] <adrian_> which ones better ubuntu or kubuntu
[08:43] <Flannel> GameSpot: The best thing you could do is to stop using enter for punctuation.
[08:43] <oscar232> UbuntuServerUser: type 'man ls'
[08:43] <cman355> I'm compiling right now
[08:43] <GameSpot> why is ubuntu better then fedora
[08:43] <leagris> GameSpot, the best distribution is the one you are confortable to work with but it is off topic here.
[08:44] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot: It isn't.
[08:44] <wols> Skycloud: rarely. cause making proper .debs is complicated, something many people can't. and the typicl ubuntu user certainly can't compile stuff
[08:44] <brad016> is fedora debian based
[08:44] <GameSpot> i tried fedora and it had more newer apps and better features
[08:44] <gaten> brad016: no
[08:44] <Jordan_U> brad016, No, rpm
[08:44] <osiris_> brad016: No
[08:44] <oscar232> Are people happy with beryl?
[08:44] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot, But at the same time, Fedora isn't better than Ubuntu
[08:44] <UbuntuServerUser> oscar232 ls lists the files, I need a listing of directorys
[08:44] <someone2005> man ls
[08:44] <GameSpot> i dont get why more people like ubuntu, fedora has all newer apps, kernel, and has a lot more features
[08:44] <brad016> so in fedora you have to compile all you apps!
[08:44] <UbuntuServerUser> compile apps? what a joke

[08:44] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot: Compile your own apps and Kernel, its not hard.
[08:44] <MISTERTibbs> GameSpot, use what works for u.  switch over.  cya.  good luck.
[08:44] <wols> brad016: no
[08:44] <oscar232> then type 'find'
[08:44] <UbuntuServerUser> what is it 1988?
[08:44] <osiris_> GameSpot: What a load of bollocks
[08:45] <gaten> brad016: no. rpm is similar to deb in idea
[08:45] <oscar232> find -t d
[08:45] <Flannel> UbuntuServerUser: directories are files.  But, try this `ls -al | grep drwx`
[08:45] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot, If you're not content with what is in the repositories, then compile yourself.
[08:45] <MISTERTibbs> oscar232, beyryl is eyecandy.  I don't use or need it.
[08:45] <nj786> does anybody know why i only see a folded page for the icon for IE
[08:45] <comicinker> can somebody help me with that problem? I cannot add some items to the gnome adminstration panel because the selection deselect itself
[08:45] <osiris_> Ausicaemia: Well said.
[08:45] <brad016> Ausicaemia, ya but it is harder than double click and install
[08:45] <cman355> community!   I get faster more helpful support from the Ubuntu community than i did from SUSE or Fedora.
[08:45] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot, The packages that ARE in the repositories are there because they have been tested to work with the distributions.
[08:45] <GameSpot> osiris_ what does bollocks mean
[08:45] <gaten> GameSpot: if you want uber cutting edge and control, try gentoo
[08:45] <brad016>  how do you make a program run at startup?
[08:45] <MISTERTibbs> comicinker, are u working as root??
[08:45] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot, If they don't have the bleeding edge, then it hasn't been tested to work.
[08:45] <Flannel> brad016: which startup? boot? or login?
[08:45] <cman355> yeah if you want rice get Gentoo
[08:45] <osiris_> GameSpot: It means i can smell the bullshit from here!.
[08:45] <matason> What files affect keyboard configuration?

[08:46] <Flannel> Alright guys, that sort of stuff is getting offtopic.  Please keep it ubuntu help related.
[08:46] <comicinker> I am using the "change menu" command where no root privilegs are required
[08:46] <oscar232> sorry .. 'find -type d'
[08:46] <brad016> ubotu, thanks
[08:46] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[08:46] <comicinker> I thougt
[08:47] <GameSpot> ok if u guys can answer this question ill stick to ubuntu: how do i add access to my username so i can access my new harddrive and write files onto it, its in /media/storage - it gives me the error "permission denied, you cannot write"
[08:47] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot, People use Ubuntu because of a number of things. One of the largest support groups, excellent package management, regular releases, just overall a great package.
[08:47] <osiris_> UbuntuServerUser: Have you mounted it?
[08:47] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot, Linux is more than just "new apps" and "cool features".
[08:47] <UbuntuServerUser> osiris_ i don't know
[08:47] <UbuntuServerUser> osiris_ I'm trying tomount this second hdd to samba so I can create files and shre them on it
[08:47] <MISTERTibbs> GameSpot, http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/business/314124_dellfolo03.html
[08:47] <osiris_> UbuntuServerUser: What file system does your second hd use?
[08:47] <Flannel> GameSpot: We've alread answered that.  Please stop asking.
[08:47] <Jordan_U> GameSpot, Do you think that you switching to another distro is some sort of threat?
[08:47] <GameSpot> yes
[08:47] <GameSpot> i will be leaving ubuntu
[08:47] <UbuntuServerUser> osiris_ linux 83 I partitioned it earlier
[08:47] <GameSpot> and switching to fedora
[08:48] <leagris> GameSpot, do a ls -ld /media/mountpoint first to check permissions on the mountpoint
[08:48] <Ausicaemia> Well do it.
[08:48] <GameSpot> btw, im a billionaire, but you guys probably dont care
[08:48] <Jordan_U> GameSpot, That's great I hope you like it
[08:48] <GameSpot> either way i just needed some help
[08:48] <UbuntuServerUser> Its bill!
[08:48] <defrysk> GameSpot, good for you and /j #fedora

[08:48] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot. Dude people linked you that shit like.. 10 minutes ago.
[08:49] <Ausicaemia> But you didn't check it.
[08:49] <predaeus> !language
[08:49] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:49] <Ausicaemia> Yeah, fair enough.
[08:49] <elkbuntu> Flannel, who?
[08:49] <imbecile> someone please help me with azureus.. #azureus is no help http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27379/
[08:49] <Ausicaemia> But honest to god, hard to hold your tongue in this instance.
[08:49] <GameSpot> DarkMageZ
[08:49] <GameSpot> after I use chown, do i have to enter a cmd to save the setting, or will it auto save
[08:49] <Jordan_U> imbecile, Did you try removing blackdown java?
[08:49] <GameSpot> even after i reboot
[08:50] <oscar232> Anybody try running 2 30-inch cinema displays on linux?
[08:50] <comicinker> MISTERTibbs: and I can add programs and stuff like that, but I cannot ad the administrator shortcuts to the service administration
[08:50] <imbecile> Jordan_U,  yeah i removed it
[08:50] <DarkMageZ> GameSpot, those permissions are written to that harddrive.
[08:50] <osiris_> ls -la
[08:50] <brad016> oscar232, you got too much damn fuckin' money
[08:50] <osiris_> oops
[08:50] <UbuntuServerUser> osiris_ linux 83 I partitioned it earlier
[08:50] <DarkMageZ> GameSpot, so next time you mount it. those permissions will be read in the same way.
[08:50] <someone2005> yup...
[08:50] <kraut> moin
[08:50] <gaten> thus chan is gettin outta control
[08:50] <GameSpot> DarkMageZ is there a way to add a shortcut to that new harddrive on my desktop
[08:50] <oscar232> brad016: that's probably true ... but at least I'm putting it to a good use :)
[08:50] <GameSpot> so i can acess it from there?
[08:50] <MISTERTibbs> comicinker, i'm not sure u can manually do that.
[08:50] <predaeus> !ohmy | brad016
[08:50] <ubotu> brad016: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:51] <Ausicaemia> gaten, How so?
[08:51] <osiris_> UbuntuServerUser: cd /media
[08:51] <someone2005> lol
[08:51] <brad016> oscar232, ya linux IS always a good use of hardware
[08:51] <gaten> Ausicaemia: swearing
[08:51] <Jordan_U> imbecile, try: sudo update-alternatives --config java
[08:51] <MISTERTibbs> comicinker, i think service shortcuts are generated by the application once it's installed
[08:51] <DarkMageZ> GameSpot, if you google on how to do a symlink. you'll probably find the answer. :)
[08:51] <oscar232> haha
[08:51] <GameSpot> ?
[08:51] <someone2005> not...
[08:51] <GameSpot> so i have to do a symlink
[08:51] <UbuntuServerUser> osiris ah it wrked IM in now why wasn't that DIRECTORY listed when I did ls ???
[08:51] <GameSpot> theres no other way
[08:51] <Ausicaemia> gaten, Wow, 3 times in 5 minutes. Not really that much of a drama to be honest.
[08:51] <oscar232> Actually, I probably use more hardware than anybody in this room
[08:51] <Jordan_U> imbecile, I think Azureus works best with gcj but I am not sure
[08:51] <someone2005> lol...
[08:51] <oscar232> (for actual computation)
[08:51] <DarkMageZ> GameSpot, that's how i'd personally do it. i'm sure there are other ways. but none that i know of.
[08:51] <comicinker> ok, thanks. things are going fast here. it very exhausting to follow the chat... sorry
[08:52] <gaten> Ausicaemia: im not starting another war
[08:52] <UbuntuServerUser> osiris_ ah it wrked IM in now why wasn't that DIRECTORY listed when I did ls ???
[08:52] <osiris_> UbuntuServerUser: You prob wasn't in the right location to start with.
[08:52] <Ausicaemia> gaten, Either am I. Just really not "out of control".
[08:52] <GameSpot> wow
[08:52] <GameSpot> thats a joke
[08:52] <GameSpot> i have to use symlink just to access my other hd
[08:52] <imbecile> Jordan_U,     3    /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java?
[08:52] <UbuntuServerUser> osiris_ why you have that _ in your name
[08:52] <osiris_> UbuntuServerUser: Its my tail
[08:52] <osiris_> heh
[08:53] <UbuntuServerUser> osiris_ no I was at /root
[08:53] <brad016> can you use an Apple AirPort wireless thing in ubuntu?
[08:53] <Jordan_U> imbecile, That might work, I am not sure what version is best for Azureus
[08:53] <UbuntuServerUser> it was listing it
[08:53] <DarkMageZ> GameSpot, symlinks are basically equal to windows's shortcuts...
[08:53] <Jordan_U> brad016, sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[08:53] <Ausicaemia> Right, I have yet another query, is there anyway to tell Ubuntu to stop resuming saved sessions?
[08:53] <leagris> vecnah, yoo, here Bubulle. I guess we met somewhere else :)
[08:53] <brad016> Jordan_U, nice, quick answers
[08:53] <predaeus> GameSpot, just add a shortcut/starter for "nautilus location/of/harddrive"
[08:53] <osiris_> UbuntuServerUser: As long as you can access it now :)
[08:53] <MISTERTibbs> brad016, yes.  there's a wiki for it somewhere
[08:53] <brad016> MISTERTibbs, cool
[08:54] <UbuntuServerUser> osiris_ true.....ok now I'm in here only thing listed is cdrom and cdrom0 (I ONLY Have one cd drive???) so where is hdb?
[08:54] <predaeus> no need to symlink to Desktop
[08:54] <someone2005> yea sure ?
[08:54] <GameSpot> ?
[08:54] <GameSpot> is this that right cmd for symlink:
[08:54] <osiris_> UbuntuServerUser: Is it an IDE drive?
[08:55] <UbuntuServerUser> yes slave
[08:55] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: you make a directory
[08:55] <UbuntuServerUser> mkdir?
[08:55] <wols> yes
[08:55] <imbecile> Jordan_U, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27380/
[08:55] <DarkMageZ> GameSpot, predaeus has a better idea :)
[08:55] <predaeus> GameSpot, right click on Desktop, select create starter or whatever it is called (sorry I am not in Gnome right now and can not check) and enter "nautilus path/to/my/hd" as program to execute
[08:55] <UbuntuServerUser> I have to make a directory for a HDD? man this is weird why isn't this already done?
[08:55] <adrian__> are there any aviation rooms/
[08:56] <brad016> Jordan_U, it came up with some devil-ish Windows-like installation
[08:56] <Jordan_U> imbecile, Try gij
[08:56] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: cause linux doesn't have silly drive letters
[08:56] <GameSpot> do you mean create launcher predaeus
[08:56] <MISTERTibbs>   adrian_ aviation ubunutu???
[08:56] <brad016> Jordan_U, I'm affraid to go any further, does it like run in wine?
[08:56] <imbecile> Jordan_U,  i dont know how to
[08:56] <predaeus> GameSpot, yes
[08:56] <GameSpot> so i would type this
[08:56] <leagris> !flightgear | adrian__
[08:56] <Flannel> UbuntuServerUser: You make a directory whereever you'd like it.  And, the harddrive (and it's partitions) already exist.  But you still need to mount them places for them to be in your tree usable/etc.
[08:56] <Jordan_U> brad016, what?
[08:56] <GameSpot> nautilus /media/storage
[08:56] <oscar232> UbuntuServerUser:  Each disk has to be mounted at a mount-point, so it becomes part of the singly-rooted directory tree
[08:56] <predaeus> GameSpot, yes
[08:56] <gaten> !keybindings
[08:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about flightgear - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about keybindings - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:57] <gaten> !mediakeys
[08:57] <ubotu> Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts (Gnome) or "Input Actions" in KControl (KDE). If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try keytouch - http://keytouch.sourceforge.net
[08:57] <Ademan> anyone know of some programs that can play aif files? apple audio files i guess
[08:57] <brad016> Jordan_U, in the terminal " sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter" it has a windows-like installation windows
[08:57] <Jordan_U> imbecile, select "1"
[08:57] <predaeus> GameSpot, nautilus is the Gnome file manager. If the drive is mounted at that location and accessible by your user, it should work
[08:57] <oscar232> UbuntuServerUser:  This is actually much more elegant than windows because there is one globally unique hierarchy
[08:57] <UbuntuServerUser> flannel, oscar, I understand now, OK I made a directory called "server"
[08:57] <GameSpot> ty
[08:57] <brad016> Jordan_U, nev-mind
[08:57] <UbuntuServerUser> yes that make sense
[08:57] <GameSpot> it works
[08:57] <Jordan_U> brad016, Yea, it looks better if you install the package from synaptic
[08:57] <RAH> does anyone know about the black window problem you get when using Compiz?
[08:57] <predaeus> gaten, don't mess with the bot please, ask it in private if you have any personal questions
[08:57] <Bogaurd> is the mail notification utility that comes with gnome capable of checking multiple imap folders at once?
[08:57] <wols> !effects | RAH
[08:57] <ubotu> RAH: For help with Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects
[08:57] <Flannel> RAH: #ubuntu-effects for eyecandy help.
[08:57] <GameSpot> way better then DarkMageZ  retarded idea
[08:57] <GameSpot> lol
[08:58] <predaeus> gaten, like "/msg ubotu myquestoin"
[08:58] <RAH> lol shot
[08:58] <oscar232> Yeah, RAH, that's a problem I was getting for a while ... I'll find the link to fix ...

[08:58] <imbecile> Jordan_U,  you are my hero
[08:58] <osiris_> GameSpot: Please dont mock peoples answers, you have come here for help the people in here dont *have* to help you at all.
[08:58] <oscar232> the black window problem is caused by some kind of running-out-of-memory problem

[08:58] <ubotu> GameSpot: The Ubuntu Code of Conduct to which we ask all Ubuntu users to adhere can be found at http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct/
[08:58] <Jordan_U> brad016, Synaptic is basically a front end to apt-get / dpkg
[08:59] <Jordan_U> imbecile, :)
[08:59] <Flannel> GameSpot: read it.  Know it.  It applies in this channel.
[08:59] <GameSpot> ok
[08:59] <GameSpot> i will waste 10 mins of my life reading it
[08:59] <brad016> Jordan_U, but apt-get dpkg is only if the packed is on the local filesystem
[08:59] <GameSpot> np
[08:59] <UbuntuServerUser>  flannel, oscar, I understand now, OK I made a directory called "server" what do I do next?
[08:59] <GameSpot> !enter | Flannel
[08:59] <ubotu> Flannel: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[08:59] <wols> brad016: no. apt-get can download stuff. dpkg can't
[08:59] <comicinker> hi
[09:00] <Jordan_U> brad016, apt-get uses dpkg, and it downloads the packages just like synaptic
[09:00] <imbecile> Jordan_U,  17 hours and many problems ive been asking questions on and this is the first one that actually worked
[09:00] <michael_m> this shows up when i run the command dmesg. i think its causing a very slow boot also.   http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27381/
[09:00] <oscar232> UbuntuServerUser, I mised the first part of your question ... do you have a hdd that is already formatted and you want to mount it?
[09:00] <wols> !permissions UbuntuServerUser
[09:00] <Flannel> UbuntuServerUser: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount That'll get you up to speed, on commands, and theory, and stuff.
[09:00] <wols> check it has the proper permissions/owner
[09:00] <oscar232> Or do you still need to format/partition it?
[09:00] <UbuntuServerUser> no thats done
[09:00] <comicinker> by starting "sudo services-admin" happens exactly nothing. can somebody help?
[09:00] <imbecile> Jordan_U,  thank you very much
[09:00] <Jordan_U> imbecile, np :)
[09:00] <UbuntuServerUser> oscar232 spent last hour figuring that out
[09:00] <brad016> Jordan_U, when i install something i use sudo apt-get install "Package name"
[09:00] <oscar232> Do you know the '/dev' name for the hdd?
[09:00] <UbuntuServerUser> hdb
[09:00] <michael_m> GameSpot: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27381/
[09:01] <UbuntuServerUser> You goign to walk me through or can I read this mounjting guide?
[09:01] <michael_m> wols: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27381/
[09:01] <Ademan> any way to make synaptic automatically (or prompt you) to remove newly undepended packages? (i believe adept works like that)
[09:01] <Flannel> UbuntuServerUser: hdb is the drive.  (/dev/hdb) but its on a partition, not a drive.  (probably /dev/hdb1)
[09:01] <comicinker> can somebody help? by starting "sudo services-admin" happens exactly nothing.
[09:01] <oscar232> ok, then you want to issue:  mount /dev/hdb /disk (or wherever you want it to live)
[09:01] <MISTERTibbs> Ademan, apt-get autoremove will remove orphaned files
[09:01] <adrian_> {wew}
[09:02] <Flannel> UbuntuServerUser: that mounting guide should be all you need.  It's really good.  If you have further questions/whatever, feel free to ask.
[09:02] <oscar232> oh yeah ... you want /dev/hdb1 or whatever
[09:02] <Flannel> UbuntuServerUser: and better yet, you'll know what you're doing as well as how to do it. Instead of just "now paste this command"
[09:02] <oscar232> /dev/hdb represents the block-device, but you want the specific partition
[09:02] <imbecile> Jordan_U,  now i get drunk and play video games.. thanks again
[09:03] <imbecile> yayyyyy
[09:03] <someone2005> huh ?
[09:03] <oscar232> check out /etc/fstab as well
[09:03] <UbuntuServerUser> Flannel, oscar232 (yes I understand I actually read unlike some people) OK so let me get this straight. I created a directory called server under /media which I'm going to mount to share. However under /dev I see two hdb directories, one hdb then another hdb1
[09:03] <oscar232> you want the hdb1
[09:04] <oscar232> the hdb represents the entire block-device, but the hdb1 represents the first partition in that, which is what you want to mount
[09:04] <Flannel> UbuntuServerUser: /media/server is your mountpoint (where you're mounting your new partition), in /dev/ hdb is the ENTIRE disk (physical drive), hdb1 is the first partition on that disk.
[09:04] <Zappatta> I've just used gparted off the live disc to free 2GB out of an ntfs partion. Now I want to add those two gigabytes to an ext3 partition. But when I try to resize it, I can only set it new size to a lower value. Anybody knows why?
[09:04] <Jordan_U> UbuntuServerUser, hdb is the drive, hdb1 is the first partition on that drive
[09:04] <UbuntuServerUser> can I mount hdb?
[09:04] <Flannel> Zappatta: you can only move the foot of ext3 drives.  How big is the current one?  (and how much data does it have on it)
[09:04] <UbuntuServerUser> nvm
[09:05] <UbuntuServerUser> ignore that question I always need a partition
[09:05] <UbuntuServerUser> OK thanks letme read this mounting guide...BTW i have to do this anyway even if I'm going to samba share it right?
[09:05] <oscar232> YOu can't mount hdb because it's not a recognizable linux file system ... you need to mount the portion of that device that is actually formatted (as ext3 or whatever)
[09:05] <UbuntuServerUser> Yes I figured tht out
[09:05] <Zappatta> Flannel, its 3.83GB bit. Has 470MB free.
[09:05] <abhi> hi i'm facing a strange problem with edgy eft when my net connection at office does not work. edgy eft takes long time to start up after i log in from GDM. any idea how to stop this?
[09:05] <someone2005> yup
[09:05] <comicinker> can somebody help me? I cannot start any service anymore
[09:05] <abhi> even my other programs run slowly
[09:06] <randoman_> anyone know why im getting this
[09:06] <randoman_> warning: failed to load external entity "/schemas.xslt"
[09:06] <randoman_> ?
[09:06] <abhi> it takes me very long time to start even a simple terminal
[09:06] <Zappatta> Flannel, the position of the free space is on the disk is right before the ext3 partition I want to resize.
[09:06] <Flannel> Zappatta: ah.  That's no good.  If your Existing one was say... 2GB, you could do some fancy footwork to make them all one partition.
[09:06] <Jordan_U> abhi, Any reason you aren't running Feisty?
[09:06] <oscar232> abhi ... are you using a distributed authentication mechanism?
[09:06] <abhi> Jordan_U: I'm happy using eft
[09:06] <abhi> oscar232: NO IDEA
[09:06] <michael_m> can someone help me (ata...bus error i think???)     http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27381/
[09:06] <someone2005> progress huh
[09:06] <oscar232> Did you install the machine yourself, or was it installed as part of a corporation?
[09:07] <abhi> oscar232: i installed it myself
[09:07] <oscar232> Then the problem is likely related to .... 1) disk problems, 2) network problems
[09:07] <Flannel> Zappatta: right.  You can only expand ext3 backwards.  Do you have additional room on your large partition (that you shrunk by 2GB) to temporarily play around?  (say... 4 more GB?)
[09:07] <Zappatta> Flannel, Well my other option would be to create a new ext3 partition and move the /home mountpoint there. Wouldn't it?
[09:07] <abhi> oscar232: it got hold of all the ip etc from our dhcp server
[09:07] <abhi> oscar232: yes it's a network problem
[09:07] <oscar232> do you have any kind of networking problems once things start?
[09:07] <Flannel> Zappatta: yes.  You can move /home to it's own partition (and acutally, that's generally a good idea anyway)
[09:07] <oscar232> can you do nslookups?
[09:08] <oscar232> It's probably a dns problem
[09:08] <Zappatta> Flannel, Yeah. i have 13 GB more of free space to play with.
[09:08] <abhi> oscar232: wait
[09:08] <oscar232> Check /etc/resolve.conf
[09:08] <oscar232> you may have 2 dns servers, one bad one that times out
[09:08] <michael_m> can someone help me (ata...bus error i think???)     http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27381/
[09:08] <shadowimmage> I'm having a big problem with my wireless card... in lspci it doesn't come up, but I see 2 cardbus bridges
[09:08] <oscar232> that's the most likely problem
[09:08] <abhi> oscar232: wait
[09:09] <abhi> abhi: dns is of the ISP
[09:09] <oscar232> does it list more than 1 dns server?
[09:09] <Zappatta> Flannel, it is a good idea. But space is more of an issue for me than having thing set up correctly. Not sure how much space I can free by that...
[09:09] <Flannel> Zappatta: well, I'll explain what all you'd be doing, if you wanted to.  Shrink it by 4 more, take four of that six (the "temporary" four) and make that a partition, then move all your stuff (from your current 3.8 drive) onto thta four.  Then remove that partition (the 3.8) and then you now have 2+3.8 of freespace, make that into a 5.8, move the stuff from the 4 to that 5.8 and then remove the 4 (put back to the big partition)
[09:09] <randoman_> so anyone know how to fix this

[09:09] <arooni> help!  i just installed nvidia drivers, and now x window system won't boot :( (ubuntu 7.04)
[09:10] <oscar232> abhi ... once you are logged in, does it work fine?
[09:10] <UbuntuServerUser> BTW i have to mount drives anyway  to media/server even if I'm going to samba share it right?
[09:10] <arooni> i'm getting error:  (WW) NVIDIA: No matching Device serction for instance (BUSID PCI:1:0:0) (EE) No devices detected
[09:10] <arooni> any ideas
[09:10] <Flannel> Zappatta: `du -hc /home` and read the last line
[09:11] <oscar232> arooni: switch back to 'nv'
[09:11] <arooni> oscar232: how do i do that?
[09:11] <arooni> i do have a nvidia fx card installed
[09:11] <arooni> promise ;p
[09:11] <oscar232> vi (or emacs) /etc/X11/xorg.conf, and replace 'nvidia' with 'nv'
[09:12] <oscar232> arooni, which card do you have?
[09:12] <arooni> oscar232: nvidia fx 5200
[09:12] <arooni> 256mb ram
[09:12] <oscar232> arooni, check /var/log/xorg.0.log
[09:12] <comicinker> help! sudo soesn't work anymore
[09:12] <oscar232> see if there is an error message
[09:13] <comicinker> help! sudo doesn't work anymore
[09:13] <Flannel> Zappatta: also, if you're looking to save space, (especially if you're going to be moving everything around), `sudo apt-get autoclean` will remove all the old packages you've downloaded (ones that are obsolete), `sudo apt-get clean` will remove all of your package cache.
[09:13] <abhi_> oscar232: the DNS servers are of the ISP
[09:13] <abhi_> oscar232: on top i have the domain name of our netwrk
[09:13] <Flannel> !doesntwork | comicinker
[09:13] <ubotu> comicinker: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[09:13] <arooni> oscar232: i dont have a xorg log file
[09:13] <Zappatta> Flannel, 209332. Is that in Kilobytes?
[09:13] <abhi_> oscar232: how do i make sure edgy does not slow down whether my internet connection is up or down?
[09:13] <arooni> but i do have an Xorg.0.log ;p
[09:13] <UbuntuServerUser> Hey you guys I mounted my drive!!!! I think it worked!!
[09:13] <Flannel> Zappatta: er, looks like you forgot the -h?
[09:14] <abhi_> oscar232: i don't want it to get sluggish whenever my net connection goes down
[09:14] <abhi_> oscar232: what should i do?
[09:14] <Zappatta> oh yeah
[09:14] <comicinker> uboto: if I try to ececute a program as sudo exactly nothing happens
[09:14] <Zappatta> Flannel, 205m
[09:14] <arooni> oscar232: error was:  "No devices detected"
[09:14] <k0d3r> Hey guys :) Who can help me with  route? plz...
[09:14] <oscar232> abhi ... it's hard to make a general answer... it kinds of depends on what is failing with your network
[09:14] <oscar232> if it's dns, you can try adding '/etc/hosts' entries for things you visit a lot
[09:14] <Flannel> comicinker: try `sudo -K` on it's own line.  Then see if it works again.
[09:15] <arooni> oscar232: also in log file there is:  'Nvidia; no matching device section for instance (BUSId PCI:1:0:0) found
[09:15] <oscar232> if you are using nfs, then it's going to be slow regardless
[09:15] <pinkspartan> Hi folks, never used the irc before but I'm having issues, my sound output works just fine on my ubuntu install but I can't get my microphone to work at all. it works in windows just fine, but not in ubuntu....any help ?
[09:15] <UbuntuServerUser> will my mount stay on after restart?
[09:15] <chrisnz_> Newbie - using ubuntu 7.04 - how to install the .deb file for a brother printer MFC 215c - So close I can smell it!!  Help!
[09:15] <abhi_> oscar232: no i'm not using nfs
[09:15] <comicinker> Result: simeon is not in the sudoers file.  This incident will be reported.
[09:15] <Zappatta> Flannel, I guess i could free an extra 500MB for the home dir. then move the rest the a new bigger partion. Solve both problems. Any tips to prevent me from messing up the mount points?
[09:15] <Flannel> Zappatta: so, most of your space isn't taken up by your homedir.  If you want, you can do it ... Oh, you know what?  Feisty has a graphical disk usage... doohickey.
[09:15] <comicinker> my login name is simeon
[09:16] <Flannel> comicinker: ah.  Well, there you go.  Was your user originally?  Did you try and edit your sudoers?
[09:16] <fritz> my windows xp service pack 2 won't connect 2 the internet. a;though in control panel i checked and the connection is good, even ran a cmd ipconfig and got a network adress...so i'm quite puzzled why it doesen't connect
[09:16] <UbuntuServerUser> What is lost+found
[09:16] <oscar232> abhi, if you installed ubuntu yourself (so you don't need to contact a remote authentication/directory server, etc to get access keys, etc), and if you don't have any mounted remote file systems, then I'm not sure why it's slow unless you issue a network-command
[09:16] <Flannel> Zappatta: it's pretty and round and graphical.  You'll be able to know what's sucking up the most space.  Even if you can't do anything about it.
[09:16] <comicinker> well, I tried to add a new user, but simeon is the initial user and it worked in the beginning
[09:16] <abhi_> oscar232: it takes long time to load even a terminal
[09:17] <arooni> oscar232: ok so i replaced 'nvidia' with 'nv' in the xorg conf file and now i'm restarting
[09:17] <Flannel> comicinker: What did you do to add the new user?
[09:17] <shadowimmage> does anyone here know how to fix my wifi card problem? I can't get it to work properly... it sees networks, but as soon as I try connecting to something, it dies.
[09:17] <UbuntuServerUser> logout
[09:18] <Zappatta> Flannel, already used that. Seems like I can't really do anything about it. When i intalled feisty I didn't plan for it to become my primarily used OS, but now it is. I figure its worth allocating more disk space to :)
[09:18] <arooni> oscar232: so i did that and now my error is :  "(WW) NV: No matching Devicer section for instance (BusID PCI:1:0:0) found ... (EE)  no devices detected)"  ... ideas?
[09:19] <abhi_> oscar232: and it even takes long time to load simple applications
[09:19] <abhi_> oscar232: it just slows down :(
[09:19] <oscar232> abhi ... it sounds like it's not a networking problem.  It sounds like a bad hard disk. Have you checked /var/log/messages
[09:19] <abhi_> oscar232: bad hard disK?
[09:19] <abhi_> oscar232: it's a brand new hard disk
[09:19] <comicinker> Flannel: well, I tried to add a new user recently, but simeon is the initial user and it worked in the beginning (for 2 months)
[09:19] <oscar232> hmm
[09:19] <abhi_> oscar232:  and i get this problem only when my net connection / my gateway goes down
[09:19] <oscar232> I have seen similar behavior before with bad hard disks .
[09:19] <oscar232> oh
[09:19] <oscar232> only when you net goes down
[09:19] <pinkspartan> anyone here using the A8n-sli deluxe motherboard and had issues with the microphone ?
[09:19] <abhi_> oscar232: only when my net goes down
[09:19] <abhi_> oscar232: but once it's up
[09:19] <oscar232> bizarre ...
[09:19] <abhi_> oscar232: it works fine
[09:19] <comicinker> Flannel: so I have to correct the user and the groups maybe
[09:19] <oscar232> what commands are you running?  just opening terminals?
[09:19] <UbuntuServerUser> THANKS ALOT GUYS SEE YOU TOMMOROW FOR MORE LINUX CONFIG FUN
[09:19] <Flannel> Zappatta: right.  Well, it's not uncommon to reinstall after you've gotten used to stuff.  That's one reason why having /home on it's own is handy.  Also, most of the time, the majority of your system doesn't get hat much better, it's mostly /home that expands.
[09:19] <fritz> any1?
[09:19] <arooni> oscar232: any other suggestinos to get x back up?
[09:19] <comicinker> i executed the user administration tool in the administration panel
[09:20] <Flannel> Zappatta: Home on it's own partition is useful, because when you reinstall (for whatever reason) you just mount /home, without formatting it.  So you don't lose any personal data.
[09:20] <comicinker> then I added the a user "networking" and set the password
[09:20] <oscar232> arooni ... hmm, usually nv is the "generic" fallback (i.e. it's the open-source alternative to teh closed-source nvidia, and it tends to work in more situations, but without the hardware acceleration. I'm not sure why it can't be found)
[09:20] <babo> I've messed up my ethernet interface, everything worked fine till I started messing with it. Now I get "could not find information on interface eth1:avahi in /proc/net/dev". The interface seems to be there in /proc/net/dev but it loses 100% of it's packets. In 'ifconfig /all' I get "error fetching interface information, device not found" :-( can anyone help ?
[09:20] <oscar232> arooni ... you may want to put the xorg.conf file back the way it was, and the do an apt-get to uninstall the nvidia driver
[09:21] <kingcobra> hey
[09:21] <comicinker> Fanell: thats all
[09:21] <Flannel> comicinker: What did you do to add the user?  GUI or command line?
[09:21] <arooni> oscar232: really?  that means i cant run nvidia drivers?
[09:21] <kingcobra> what yo all into
[09:21] <comicinker> Flannel: the GUI
[09:21] <abhi_> Flannel: u have any idea why i'm facing this strange problem?
[09:21] <oscar232> arooni ... I'm not saying that ...
[09:21] <kingcobra> how about just running vista lmfao
[09:21] <oscar232> arooni .. there are a ton of options you can pass to the nvidia driver tha tmight fix your problem
[09:21] <Flannel> comicinker: hmm.  Alright.  That's odd.  Go to a terminal, and type `groups`  What does it spit back at you?
[09:21] <predaeus> !offtopic | kingcobra
[09:21] <ubotu> kingcobra: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:21] <Zappatta> Flannel, I don't think I have time to reinstall right now. But i think I can reallocate more space & copy home dir to its own partition.
[09:21] <oscar232> YOu shoudl play around with nvidia-xconfig
[09:22] <oscar232> it has ways to generate xorg.conf files and to probe your device
[09:22] <kingcobra> lol
[09:22] <comicinker> thit shows me "simeon"
[09:22] <kingcobra> i was jsut messing
[09:22] <kingcobra> lol
[09:22] <arooni> oscar232: but dont i have to keep drivers installed to do that?
[09:22] <abhi_> oscar232: u think it's got something do to with IPv6?
[09:22] <kingcobra> no
[09:22] <arooni> oscar232: and how to i put xorg file back to 'way it was'
[09:22] <comicinker> Flannel: it shows me "simeon"
[09:22] <arooni> cuz i dont know how it was to start
[09:22] <oscar232> arooni ... yeah, I was just giving you a failback to get it to the state it was in earlier
[09:23] <Flannel> Zappatta: Right.  I imagine for the time being your install will be fine.  3.8 - 200, you'll have half a gig left for system stuffs.  Then you'll have a 2GB /home folder.
[09:23] <oscar232> arooni ... sorry,when I said "change nvidia to nv" and that didn't work, I was just saying change it back to "nvidia" again
[09:23] <Flannel> comicinker: and thats... it?
[09:23] <comicinker> yes
[09:23] <arooni> oscar232: but xorg didnt work with nvidia either :(
[09:23] <vzduch> mornin'
[09:23] <oscar232> arooni ... but play with nvidia-xconfig ... it has commands to see if the card can be detected
[09:24] <comicinker> Flannel: a  "sudo groups" shows me nothing
[09:24] <Flannel> comicinker: I see.  Well, you've somehow managed to remove yourself from a whole lot of groups.  Most of the ones you need to be in to do anything.  Get a piece of paper, or something.  And write this down, since you're going to need to reboot to run this command.
[09:24] <oscar232> do 'man nvidia-xconfig'
[09:24] <Zappatta> Flannel, let me just recap on what I'm going to do. 1. Create a new 6GB ext3 partition, copy old 4GB partition there. 2. Create a new 500MB partition, copy /home there. 3. delete OLD 4GB ext3 partition, add free space to old NTFS partition. 4. edit /etc/fstab. set the / mount point to new 6GB partition. set /home mount point to new 0.5GB parition. right? :)
[09:24] <predaeus> arooni, if X will not start and no other driver works, use "vesa" as a backup it is the minimal fallback driver
[09:24] <oscar232> for exampe:  nviida-xconfig --probe-all-gpus
[09:24] <comicinker> ok
[09:25] <comicinker> I'm ready
[09:25] <Skycloud> Whats the command to see wireless internet cards? its like ifconfig but not
[09:25] <Flannel> comicinker: your username is "simeon", right?
[09:25] <comicinker> yes
[09:25] <MISTERTibbs> Skycloud, iwconfig
[09:25] <vzduch> Zappatta: are you sure that 500 MB /home is enough?
[09:25] <Skycloud> MISTERTibbs: thanks
[09:25] <MISTERTibbs> Skycloud, np.  run man iwconfig for details
[09:26] <arooni> predaeus: can i restart x without having to reboot machine?
[09:26] <arooni> if so how?
[09:26] <Flannel> comicinker: actually, it might be easier to save this to a textfile in your homedir, and then copy/paste.
[09:26] <Flannel> arooni: ctrl-alt-backspace
[09:26] <oscar232> arooni:  you can do ctrl-alt-backspace
[09:26] <comicinker> ok
[09:26] <Zappatta> vzduch, under the limitations I have, yeah. right now its taking 200mb.
[09:26] <vzduch> o0
[09:26] <Flannel> comicinker: usermod -G adm, dialout, cdrom, floppy, audio, dip, video, plugdev, lpadmin, scanner, admin -a simeon
[09:26] <abhi_> oscar232: i sometimes get this message after a long time of logging in from GDM and into GNOME it says HAL Failed
[09:26] <abhi_> oscar232: this happens when my gateway goes down
[09:26] <arooni> Flannel: nothing happend when i tried that
[09:26] <arooni> does that mean x didnt want to load
[09:26] <Flannel> comicinker: that's the command you need to run.  However, you need to do some special stuff to get to the point where you can run that.
[09:26] <Flannel> arooni: is this not in X when you do it?
[09:27] <arooni> Flannel:  right its command line
[09:27] <arooni> i mean not x, i cant get x to load :(
[09:27] <comicinker> Flannel: so I need i live cd
[09:27] <Zappatta> I save most media, which takes most space, on my NTFS partition.
[09:27] <Flannel> comicinker: You need to reboot, then at GRUB (which is riht after your post screen), you need to select "recvery mode"
[09:27] <Flannel> comicinker: no no no.
[09:27] <comicinker> aha
[09:27] <Flannel> comicinker: if you don't see a grub menu, you need to hit "escape" to see it.
[09:28] <zs6jce> Hi guys, i`m new to Ubuntu, and have 1Q? IS the "NTFS-Cong Tool" Stable/Trustable and Usable.
[09:28] <Flannel> comicinker: Then select recovery mdoe, and then run that command.  Then you should be ok.
[09:28] <Flannel> zs6jce: yes
[09:28] <comicinker> I see the boot menu. but if I cannot login as a root, nor cannot use the sudo command, how can I be able to execute that command?
[09:28] <osiris_> zs6jce: Yes i have been using it for a while now.
[09:29] <zs6jce> Thanks alot
[09:29] <Zappatta> Flannel, I would probably have to set grub again to use the new partition. Wouldn't I?
[09:29] <Flannel> comicinker: You select, at the grub menu, the "recovery mode", which gives you a root prompt. (and only a terminal)
[09:29] <comicinker> zs6jce: yes
[09:29] <Flannel> Zappatta: You're reusing the same partition for everythign except home, right?
[09:29] <comicinker> Flannel: password required
[09:29] <comicinker> ?
[09:29] <oscar232> abhi: I'm not sure what the problem is, but it realy sounds like you have a remote-file system mounted somewhere.  Either than or it's trying to contact a kerberos server, but you have already said that you installed it yourself
[09:30] <zs6jce> thank you going to install and play around with it
[09:30] <arooni> how do i change screen resolution?"
[09:30] <osiris_> zs6jce: Enjoy :)
[09:30] <Zappatta> Flannel, I was thinking about creating a new 6GB partition and simply copying everything there.
[09:30] <MISTERTibbs> arooni, System>Preferences>Screen Resolution
[09:30] <comicinker> Flannel: Is there a password required for the recovery mode?
[09:30] <jettred2001> I am downloading ubuntu 6.06 server1386.iso will this help me to be able to play roller coaster tycoon???
[09:31] <arooni> oscar232: so the nv driver worked if i did the --probe-all-gpus .... but now max resolution is 1024x768... and my monitor supports 1280x1024
[09:31] <vzduch> for those who want to know: you can pass options to the livecd kernel (along the lines of the limitations indicated by the help screens) by pressing F6 on the boot screen.. you can then e.g. turn off the bootsplash by deleting 'splash' and, if you like, adjust the console resolution by inserting a 'vga=' option
[09:32] <oscar232> sorry,guys, but I have to go to sleep.  Good luck with you problems.
[09:32] <comicinker> anyway I just will try it
[09:32] <arooni> ok thansk for help oscar232
[09:32] <arooni> maybe i will try 'vesa'

[09:34] <smds> hello
[09:34] <mat1980> arooni: where are you tring to create it?
[09:35] <Flannel> Zappatta: you'd have to change grub on the MBR, and then change the stuff in your menu.lst. Neither are difficult
[09:35] <jettred2001> I need some help
[09:35] <arooni> mat1980: well i want to get my resolution issue first
[09:35] <arooni> fixed first
[09:36] <imbecile> Flannel,  u seem like u know what you are talking about.. any books or websites u can recommend for learning command line stuff?

[09:37] <Shamail> when i run any executable file that i've created (be it shell or a simple C prog) i get this error
[09:37] <Shamail> bash: ./gnome1: Permission denied
[09:37] <imbecile> Flannel,  thanks alot, i think a bit part of me learning what im doing in linux lies in the command line
[09:37] <babo> I've messed up my ethernet interface, everything worked fine till I started messing with it. Now I get "could not find information on interface eth1:avahi in /proc/net/dev".

[09:38] <daftman> e.g if I don't select any sound drivers, GuildWars and Warcraft 3 run fine. with a sound driver, they both crash
[09:38] <Zappatta> Flannel, ok. I'll look for a guide someone on the interwebs. One last question. I copy the files between the partitions simply by using cp -r?
[09:38] <arooni> insmod: well i wasnt seeing the option for 1280x1024 reoslution... so i edited xorg config file.. and voila.... i get 1280x1024 resoltuion

[09:40] <Flannel> imbecile: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ClassroomTranscripts#head-37ccfda5939ad342f26a895f38e492240018f0e2
[09:40] <arooni> leagris: ok... but how do i setup dual monitor support from within this?
[09:40] <Shamail> mat1980, the partition is mounted as users, defaults
[09:40] <daftman> hi does anyone know how to fix wine sound problem?
[09:42] <Shamail> mat1980, u were right! i can exec it now! THNX
[09:42] <leagris> arooni, sudo ndivia-settings plug your second monitor first so it is detected. go to X Server Display Configuration
[09:42] <CheshireViking> daftman, it might be worth you asking in #winehq if you haven't done yet, if there's anyone in there, they might be able to help a bit more
[09:42] <mat1980> Shamail: what was the problem? the partition?
[09:42] <Flannel> Zappatta: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem  Notnecessarily anything on that page, but near the top there's a link that talks about Copying/Resizing partitions on a dual boot system.
[09:42] <Shamail> yes!
[09:42] <leagris> arooni, if you had not plug the second display you can click autodetection here
[09:42] <arooni> leagris: it see sit....
[09:42] <arooni> leagris: should i do twinview or separate x screen?
[09:43] <Ausicaemia> Anybody?
[09:43] <intelikey> did someone tell me that totem "can not play dvd's" ?
[09:43] <mat1980> Shamail: realy subtle problem :)
[09:43] <Ausicaemia> Is there anyway to tell Ubuntu to stop resuming saved sessions?
[09:43] <Shamail> hmmmm!
[09:43] <Zappatta> Flannel, allright mate. Thanks a lot. You've been mighty helpful.
[09:43] <Shamail> nyways THANKS a lot!
[09:43] <Flannel> Zappatta: it gives the proper method of moving files (you have to be careful to retain permissions, and symlinks, and stuff).  You use cpio.
[09:43] <WeeJeWel> Ausicaemia, do you use Xfce or KDE?
[09:43] <Ausicaemia> GNOME.
[09:43] <newtubuntu> leagris ; wols ; Jordan_U :  THANK YOU!
[09:43] <leagris> arooni, depend on your needs. Separate displays bring you two separate desktops with separate screen ID. Tweenview extend one desktop and screen ID stretched to boths screens
[09:44] <daftman> CheshireViking: thank you
[09:44] <Jordan_U> newtubuntu, np
[09:44] <newtubuntu> I am up and running in my brand new Ubuntu 32bits, taking ALL my 320Gb HD (Vista is simply GONE)
[09:44] <arooni> leagris: i want twinview then.... but how can i change resolution of the second screen?  its stuck right now at 800x600
[09:44] <intelikey> is there a plugin for totem that will let it play DVD ?
[09:45] <Ireal> newtubuntu: restore your backup ^_^
[09:45] <xoRock> alow, any admin from indonesia?
[09:45] <xoRock> i need a bit of help here
[09:45] <leagris> arooni, configure button and or Resolution select box. You may have to Autodetect displays in order for the drivers to know the cpaabilities of that screen
[09:45] <^NighT^WalkeR^> hey guys... what is a good html editor for linux?
[09:46] <pwuertz> ^NighT^WalkeR^: Quanta
[09:46] <Ireal> ^NighT^WalkeR^: nvu is nice enough, but dont expect miracles, i prefer vim ;P
[09:46] <^NighT^WalkeR^> pwuertz: thanx
[09:46] <mat1980> intelikey: https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html
[09:46] <insmod> ^NighT^WalkeR^, i like bluefish
[09:46] <imbecile> i think of linux like building a model car
[09:46] <J-_> I just installed nm-applet in fluxbox, and it is currently not configured to my connection in fluxbox. Is there anyway to do so?
[09:46] <chalcedony> i need to know if this stuff indicates a video card? Model: "Hewlett-Packard Company PCIxx21/x515 Cardbus Controller"
[09:46] <chalcedony> Vendor: pc 0x104c "Texas Instruments"
[09:46] <chalcedony> Device: pci 0x8031 "PCIxx21/x514 Cardbus Controller"
[09:46] <arooni> leagris: so the resolution box can only be set to 'auto' or 'off'.  and when i hit detect displays, the options dont change.. (i know for fact this moinitor supports upto 1280x1024'
[09:46] <insmod> ^NighT^WalkeR^, and mcedit in term
[09:46] <comicinker> Flannel: Thank you very much, it solved all problems!
[09:47] <someone2005> That was not correct...
[09:47] <Flannel> comicinker: Now, whatever you did (mustve fiddled around with your own groups)... don't do it again ;)
[09:47] <chalcedony> Ireal: vim :)
[09:47] <Flannel> comicinker: the important group, of all of those, was the 'admin' group.  That's what lets you sudo.  All the others were just other things (scanner lets you use the scanner, audio audio, etc)
 i thought you got it
[09:47] <^NighT^WalkeR^> does any of those have an inbuilt FTP client?
[09:48] <comicinker> only one thing was wrong: the comma separated command list didn't work first because of the spaces
[09:48] <someone2005> gone to new..
[09:48] <someone2005> again ?
[09:48] <spirit_> theres a bug in  snd_hda_intel
[09:48] <comicinker> yes. and i will be carefull next time with the gui
 they all should
[09:48] <arooni> insmod: so basically i get  dual montiors working.. but i cant make second monitor 1280x1024
[09:48] <Flannel> comicinker: Yeah.  I was wary of the spaces (because last time I remember not having any spaces), but the man page had spaces.  So, I put them in.
[09:48] <pwuertz> ^NighT^WalkeR^: quanta does... but he is right, bluefish is for gnome users
[09:48] <nilweed> hi, I recently got a software update popup for libexif12 and libkrb53.  When I click "Install Updates" it tells me that the software cannot be authenticated.  Did anybody else get this recently?  How do I determine where the update is coming from?  Running Feisty/amd64.  --thanks
[09:48] <intelikey> mat1980 i installed libdvdcss2 already   but totem keeps erroring with "install the right 'plugin' to play dvds"   ?
[09:48] <crimsun> spirit_: there are _many_ bugs in snd-hda-intel.
[09:49] <pwuertz> ^NighT^WalkeR^: quanta might have some kde deps
[09:49] <comicinker> anyway, thank you
 define it in the monitor section -- can you post the xorg
[09:49] <comicinker> cu
[09:49] <intelikey> mat1980 dappre.
[09:49] <spirit_> yes but this fucking bug hates my -.-
[09:49] <leagris> arooni depending on the connector and cable used to hook the monitor. If it can't autodect supported resolution, you may check the advanced button
[09:49] <Ausicaemia> Is there anyway to tell Ubuntu to stop resuming saved sessions?
[09:49] <arooni> insmod: when i detect displays on the second display i get:  'g_object_unref: assertion to "G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed) .....
[09:49] <Ausicaemia> Anybody?
[09:49] <leo|term> How do i get my windows computer to use a local profile, when logging on to my samba pdc?
[09:49] <intelikey> crimsun can dapper's totem play dvd's ?  know off hand ?
[09:49] <xoRock> i need help, please someone who can speak indonesian PV me, thanxs
[09:49] <arooni> insmod: yup paste coming right up
 lol i never use gui apts
[09:49] <J-_> I just installed nm-applet in fluxbox, and it is currently not configured to my connection in fluxbox. Is there anyway to do configure that applet to my configuration? what is the daemon called that controls nm-applet?
[09:49] <intelikey> crimsun 64bit dapper that is    ?
[09:49] <Flannel> !id | xoRock
[09:50] <ubotu> xoRock: join ke #ubuntu-id untuk membahas ubuntu dalam bahasa Indonesia
[09:50] <Ireal> Ausicaemia: it's in the control center, i think it's called session management :)
[09:50] <crimsun> intelikey: only unencrypted by default AFAIR
[09:50] <leagris> arooni, some HD15 analog connector dont transmit DDC signals needed for screen capability probe.
[09:50] <Ausicaemia> What control center?
[09:50] <xoRock> i'm, seems no body there
[09:50] <Ireal> Ausicaemia: what are you using KDE or gnome ?
[09:50] <intelikey> crimsun with libdvdcss2   ?
[09:50] <Jordan_U> intangir, Totem-gstreamer cannot play DVD's in any version
[09:50] <Ausicaemia> GNOME.
[09:50] <crimsun> intelikey: I've used totem-xine + libdvdcss2 et al.
[09:50] <arooni> leagris: insmod http://pastie.caboo.se/73944
[09:51] <intelikey> Jordan_U totem-xine    ?
[09:51] <crimsun> have not, however, played a retail commercial DVD on amd64/dapper (default).
[09:51] <Ireal> Ausicaemia: gnome-control-center should have some entry about session management, either that, or use the menu in the top left corner. I'm not running gnome atm so i can't give you the details ^^
[09:51] <Jordan_U> intangir, I recommend VLC for DVD support, I like to keep totem-gstreamer as it's the best gstreamer player, but totem-xine works
[09:51] <Ausicaemia> Okay, thanks.
[09:51] <xoRock> T_T
[09:51] <Ausicaemia> So many different GUI's for GNOME settings
[09:52] <intelikey> crimsun k  thanks.   this thing has been a nightmare.   tosheba lappy
[09:52] <imbecile> Flannel,  alot of this stuff applies too right? http://www.i-hacked.com/content/view/136/42/
[09:52] <Ausicaemia> Somebody should actually make a conglomerate, a proper one.
[09:52] <r0cks0ul> help on totem it wont play any videos i have remove the gstreamer
 so what do you want ?
[09:52] <Ireal> Ausicaemia: i don't think gnome-contrl-center is that bad actually :)
[09:52] <r0cks0ul> but dont know to put it back i think i changed it to something else
[09:52] <Jordan_U> r0cks0ul, Why did you remove gstreamer?
[09:52] <intelikey> Jordan_U k
[09:52] <arooni> insmod: i want the second screen hooked up via twinview. and i want its resolution to be 1280x1024
 ah yes other mon
[09:52] <leagris> arooni, try having the monitor plugged and turned on before system boot or before the nvidia driver loads
[09:53] <[nige] > anyone haveing problems with network manager not sending through hostname?
[09:53] <r0cks0ul> i followed instructions on a forum that might be better plugin they said
[09:53] <Jordan_U> r0cks0ul, sudo apt-get install totem-gstreamer
[09:53] <r0cks0ul> ive done that but still it wont
[09:53] <r0cks0ul> jordan
[09:54] <GameSpot> hi
[09:54] <newtubuntu> are the little 'Desktop Effects' dangerous or stable ?   I'm tacky but I need a few 'cool bells & whistles' to learn to love my new Ubuntu and feel at home in it.. :-P  Any good hints that don't impact the OS performance too much ?
[09:54] <intelikey> Jordan_U isn't gstreamer like for streaming *   ?  or am i all wet ?
[09:54] <Jordan_U> r0cks0ul, What error do you get when trying to play something?
[09:54] <r0cks0ul> no plugins to handle etc.
[09:54] <GameSpot> !stable | newtubuntu
 is "1600x1200" tomusch for it?
[09:54] <ubotu> newtubuntu: 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.
[09:54] <insmod> to much
[09:54] <r0cks0ul> im trying to play mpg
[09:54] <compengi> !seen someothernick
[09:54] <Talaman72> someothernick was last seen Fri Jun  1 16:45:31 2007 changing nick from someothe1nick in #ubuntu
[09:54] <arooni> insmod: thats right, it can only handle 1280x1024
[09:54] <Jordan_U> intelikey, gstreamer is a general library for media, doesn't need to be streaming
[09:54] <imbecile> !seen brucewang
[09:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about seen brucewang - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:54] <Talaman72> brucewang was last seen Tue Jun 26 21:31:41 2007 changing nick to imbecile in #ubuntu
[09:54] <arooni> insmod: the montior specifically
[09:55] <GameSpot> r0cks0ul, try gstreamer plugin
[09:55] <r0cks0ul> i cant play any videos at all not just mpg's
 then delete that as the first loaded
[09:55] <GameSpot> r0cks0ul,  go to synaptic manager and load the gstreamer mpeg/wmv player
[09:55] <GameSpot> r0cks0ul,  it is a codec
[09:55] <Jordan_U> r0cks0ul, even the example video that comes with Ubuntu?
[09:55] <r0cks0ul> yup
 u have Modes      "1600x1200" "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
[09:56] <Jordan_U> r0cks0ul, Feisty?
[09:56] <GameSpot> r0cks0ul, once again, in synaptic manager, under System>administration, then load the codec gstreamer
[09:56] <r0cks0ul> im using feisty when i first install it it automatically prompt me to install some plugins and it worked
[09:56] <arooni> insmod:  ok made that change, any others?
[09:56] <r0cks0ul> but then i've changed it
[09:57] <intelikey> i really wish the http://packages.ubuntu.com/ had a search feature
[09:57] <GameSpot> r0cks0ul, if you want the videos to work for porn reasons, you can always watch flash based porn movies.
[09:57] <imbecile> hey guys, say i make a huge vm (like 80Gb) does that take up my hd space? or is it just how much i have installed on the vm.. i would like to know
[09:57] <Flannel> imbecile: yeah.  For the most part, terminal is terminal.  However, Ubuntu does stuff the debian way.  Which in some cases is different than redhat/others.  Especially when it comes to some administration stuffs (apaches config files are signifigantly different, for instance)
[09:57] <r0cks0ul> and now it wont i have mplayer installed though and it works fine
 are both 1280?
[09:57] <r0cks0ul> I dont watch porn gamespot hehehe
[09:57] <GameSpot> really
[09:57] <GameSpot> i doubt it
[09:57] <GameSpot> but hey, whatever
[09:57] <arooni> insmod: right... both montiors support up to 1280x1024
[09:58] <imbecile> Flannel,  so overall it is an ok referance? i bookmarked links u gave me
[09:58] <GameSpot> !enter | r0cks0ul
[09:58] <ubotu> r0cks0ul: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
 so why are you using 2 resolutions "CRT-0: 1280x1024 +0+0, CRT-1: nvidia-auto-select +1280+0; CRT-0: 1024x768 +0+0, CRT-1:
[09:58] <someone2005> ttyl.....................
[09:58] <DarkMageZ> GameSpot, no need to go overkill on the !enter.
[09:58] <Jordan_U> r0cks0ul, I know I already said this, but make sure you have totem-gstreamer and not totem-xine ( or get the xine codecs )
[09:59] <GameSpot> lol
[09:59] <spirit_> want cubase for linux -.-
[09:59] <arooni> insmod:  not sure, thats what the nvidia settings app auto genereated
[09:59] <GameSpot> does anyone else get this red line across the screen in xchat
[09:59] <someone2005> let me know...
[09:59] <Flannel> imbecile: yeah.  In general, bash is bash.  And the linux filesystem is (more or lesS) the same on debian/redhat (there are differences).  So yeah. Looks good.
[09:59] <DarkMageZ> GameSpot, yes. that's to inform you where the text was before you looked away.
[09:59] <GameSpot> in the channel, im getting this red line across the whole channel screen, not sure why? anyone else haeve this problem
[09:59] <Jordan_U> GameSpot, That is so you know where you switched to another window
 i usually just write my own
[09:59] <GameSpot> oh
[09:59] <Flannel> GameSpot: that's the "last line you saw" line.
[09:59] <r0cks0ul> ive got all of the codecs installed whats fluendo?
[10:00] <gordonjcp> Flannel: that's a good idea
[10:00] <intelikey> is there any way to search for package names on packages.ubuntu.com   ?
[10:00] <Jordan_U> r0cks0ul, And you have totem-gstreamer, not -xine ?
[10:00] <Flannel> intelikey: er... The first box
[10:00] <GameSpot> how do i know im using the latest x chat version, i typed apt-get xchat in terminal and it installed, but is that the latest version??
[10:00] <intelikey> flannel what box ?
[10:00] <Jordan_U> GameSpot, That is the latest version in the repositories
[10:01] <kao> Hi has anyone got google earth working on ubuntu?
[10:01] <r0cks0ul> i just figured out i have xine
[10:01] <r0cks0ul> hehehe
[10:01] <Flannel> intelikey: http://packages.ubuntu.com/  scroll down past the lists, theres a "search package directories", type in a name.
[10:01] <Flannel> !earth | kao
[10:01] <ubotu> kao: Google Earth is now available, for free (only as in price), for Linux, too. To download it see http://earth.google.com/download-earth.html - A package for Ubuntu is available in the !Medibuntu repository
[10:01] <Jordan_U> r0cks0ul, sudo apt-get install totem-gstreamer
[10:01] <GameSpot> is there anyway to dual boot fedora and ubuntu, or would that just be pointless
[10:01] <arooni> insmod: so what would you change
[10:01] <r0cks0ul> i remember ive replaced gstreamer w/ xine
[10:01] <r0cks0ul> thanks ya all
[10:01] <GameSpot> also, why does ubuntu put a red line under everything i misspell? is that a built in thing or is it only for my computer?
[10:01] <kao> I have downloaded it but have probs - if you have it working I will go and figure it out
[10:02] <arooni> insmod: cuz i cant escape 800x600 resolution ont ath monitor
 well if you want 1280 change it to that
[10:02] <Jordan_U> GameSpot, Yes, you can, you can even have them share the same /home partition to save space and sync preferences
[10:02] <r0cks0ul> i think im fine now i think
 so the hz are wrong or the modes
[10:02] <GameSpot> I'm getting scared, every mispelled work is underlined by a red line, does htis mean someone hacked me
[10:02] <drgonzo> hello all
[10:02] <GameSpot> or does everyone have it
[10:02] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot: The Red Line is an aspell feature.
[10:02] <Flannel> intelikey: even when searching for descriptions however, it's an all or nothingthing.  So if you type in "text irc" you probably won't get anything, (because the string "text irc" doesn't appear) Apt-cache is much more flexible
[10:02] <GameSpot> word*
[10:03] <imbecile> off to bed, look forward to me bugging you guys tomorrow
[10:03] <GameSpot> is it built into ubuntu ?
[10:03] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot: aspell is a library for GAIM/Pidgin, XCHAT, and various other things.
[10:03] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot: No, its built as a dependency for some applications.
[10:03] <r0cks0ul> do you know the channel for beryl?
[10:03] <GameSpot> how come the spell checker is on 100%
[10:03] <GameSpot> its on for xchat
[10:03] <drgonzo> I've been reading some posts of ubuntuforums about using bogofilter and spamassassin together. I've noticed though that my version of evolution has plugins for both Do i still need to follow the steps of adding filters like the howto suggests ?
[10:03] <Flannel> r0cks0ul: #ubuntu-effects, or #beryl
[10:03] <GameSpot> its on for every application
[10:03] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot, Most of the time you can disable it in preferences
[10:03] <r0cks0ul> thankis Flannel
[10:03] <GameSpot> do u have it on?
[10:04] <abhi_> hi i'm gacing a strange problem on edgy. when every my internet gateway of my office lan goes down edgy becomes sluggish. even opening a simple terminal takes long time. if i disable networking Ubuntu works fine. but i don't want this solution because i need to access files from servers on the office lan.
 check the monitor HorizSync and VertRefresh
[10:04] <GameSpot> for some reason its spell checking every where, whether im in a browser, or xchat, or gaim
[10:04] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot, Only programs that use aspell get its features, and for stock ubuntu it's only PIDGIN and XCHAT
[10:04] <GameSpot> i dont know why
[10:04] <GameSpot> no
[10:04] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot, Firefox has its own spell checking thing.
[10:04] <imbecile> oh ya, 1 more question.. why no pidgin in repos?
[10:04] <GameSpot> my browser
[10:04] <intelikey> Flannel ah found what you were talking about...   had to leave the /dapper/ of the end of the url   hehhe   my bad.
[10:04] <GameSpot> also geeditor
[10:04] <Flannel> GameSpot: You'll find linux is more integrated than windows, because everything is open.  aspell has a standard interface, and lots of programs use it, because it's there.
[10:04] <Flannel> !pidgin | imbecile
[10:04] <ubotu> imbecile: pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It wasn't released in time for Feisty. Expect it in gutsy. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info.
[10:04] <abhi_> this is happening on all computers running Ubuntu
[10:04] <Ausicaemia> gedit has works with aspell
[10:04] <Ausicaemia> If you're that worried about having spell check everywhere, uninstall aspell.
[10:04] <imbecile> nice, thx again flannel
[10:04] <GameSpot> how come ubuntu is a mispelled word under spell checker, LOL
[10:05] <Jordan_U> imbecile, It's available as a .deb from getdeb.org
[10:05] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot, because it's not an english word.
[10:05] <imbecile> poo on aol btw
[10:05] <Ausicaemia> Or a proper noun.
[10:05] <GameSpot> oh
[10:05] <cvd_> Hey a quick q here
[10:05] <newtubuntu> what is the best way of installing Flash player ?
[10:05] <Flannel> !flash | newtubuntu
[10:05] <ubotu> newtubuntu: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[10:05] <Flannel> newtubuntu: follow that URL
[10:05] <Ausicaemia> So anyway, if you're that worried just fire up synaptic and do a search for aspell
[10:05] <GameSpot> also, another questions, for websites that play videos using windows media player, how do i play those movies on linux
[10:05] <GameSpot> like streaming videos
[10:05] <Ausicaemia> And uninstall the package, but some applications might complain.
[10:06] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot, Install either mplayer or VLC
[10:06] <abhi_> hi i'm gacing a strange problem on edgy. when every my internet gateway of my office lan goes down edgy becomes sluggish. even opening a simple terminal takes long time. if i disable networking Ubuntu works fine. but i don't want this solution because i need to access files from servers on the office lan. this problem happens on all the edgy boxes
[10:06] <GameSpot> which one are u using
[10:06] <GameSpot> and can i do it by apt-get ?
[10:06] <abhi_> i have installed them myself
[10:06] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot, they also have plugins for Mozilla which can be installed from Synaptic.
[10:06] <GameSpot> really
[10:06] <abhi_> they cannot get access to the LAN when the internet goes down
[10:06] <GameSpot> how
[10:06] <Ausicaemia> Yeah, VLC and Mplayer are availble on APT.
[10:06] <cvd_> How the hell a adjust a default audio volume in mplapler? cuz everytime start the volume to load
[10:06] <Ausicaemia> I'm using MPLAYER at the moment.
[10:06] <GameSpot> abhi, please wait for your turn, you may chat in an hour, go make a sandwich and we will be there to help you when your back, thanks

[10:07] <GameSpot> Jordan_U, i really do not know
[10:07] <Jordan_U> abhi_, There is no "line"
[10:08] <GameSpot> I am under the influence of marijuana and my judgement is really impaired, so i kind of have no clue what im saying
[10:08] <Ausicaemia> cvd: That is not an mplayer thing, it is a sound driver thing.
[10:08] <abhi_> Jordan_U:  there is a line my ethernet card lights are up
[10:08] <Ausicaemia> cvd: Open your sound config, and set the default volume.
[10:08] <abhi_> Jordan_U: our office LAN is working fine
[10:08] <GameSpot> Ausicaemia - how would i get a streaming video player through apt-get
[10:08] <cvd_> nopt cuz totem and vlc remember my seeting but mplayer not
[10:08] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot, I just told you.
[10:08] <abhi_> Jordan_U: it's just our Internet connection which goes down when i get this problem
[10:09] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot, Open up Synaptic and do a search for VLC or MPLAYER, and install one or the other and its appropariate mozilla plugin
[10:09] <abhi_> Jordan_U: the Windoze boxes and SuSE boxes don't seem to b facing any problem
[10:09] <Ausicaemia> GameSpot, vlc-mozilla or mplayer-mozilla
[10:09] <Flannel> GameSpot: to search with apt, `apt-cache search [stuff] `
[10:09] <GameSpot> Ausicaemia,  how do i search for mozilla plugins
[10:09] <Ausicaemia> ... Just search for VLC or MPLAYER
[10:09] <Ausicaemia> And the plugins for whatever one you searched for will appear.

 i told you how
[10:15] <spirit_> witch command starts the jack deamon?
[10:15] <GameSpot> no such thing

[10:16] <GameSpot> Jordan_U,
[10:16] <GameSpot> it doesnt work
[10:16] <GameSpot> it says permission denied u do not have access to open the file
[10:16] <GameSpot> its a .wmv clip
[10:16] <Jordan_U> GameSpot, Do you have permission to read the file?
 install w32codecs
[10:16] <GameSpot> yes.. why wouldnt i
[10:17] <Jordan_U> insmod, That is not his problem
[10:17] <insmod> sounds it
[10:17] <GameSpot> I can see the streaming video in firefox, but when i right click and hit "play him totem", totem says i do not have access to open the file
[10:17] <Jordan_U> GameSpot, If it is from that partition that you were having permission problems with earlier
[10:17] <CyberMad> when you use Terminal Server Client, how to easily switch from Windows to Ubuntu?
[10:18] <GameSpot> no its not
[10:18] <GameSpot> i fixed that
[10:18] <GameSpot> i used chown -R
[10:18] <GameSpot> and now i have access
[10:18] <J-_> If I want to run a daemon with root privs at startup with fluxbox(nm-applet) how can I do so?
[10:19] <J-_> do I just time nm-applet & or put a sudo in front?
[10:19] <Jordan_U> GameSpot, You can try copying the link location and using vlc, though totem should work
[10:19] <GameSpot> it does not work
[10:19] <GameSpot> what should i do
[10:19] <cvd_> how long i can keep feisty with out upgrade to a newver version?
[10:19] <GameSpot> is there a way i have to set permission to use totme?
[10:19] <Jordan_U> J-_, I don't think nm-applet needs root privileges, network-manager does but not nm-applet
[10:20] <J-_> cool, thanks. I'll check it out =)

[10:24] <Hobbsee> GameSpot: what?
[10:24] <Jordan_U> GameSpot, Don't do that.
[10:24] <Coldopm> OK well, I installed Edgy, did all the updates, and just finished upgrading to 7.04. Rebooted the computer and enter user/pass and it says something about fail to write authentication and I cannot login anymore???
[10:24] <Flannel> GameSpot: those are ops.  For administrative issues, not technical ones.
[10:24] <GameSpot> oh

[10:24] <GameSpot> im sorry i got confused
[10:24] <Myrtti> krhhgh
[10:24] <domas> ergh, ubuntu installed but crashes on next system boot.
[10:25] <Flannel> Coldopm: Xauthory? or ICEauthority?  Sound familiar?
[10:25] <Myrtti> erhm
[10:25] <Myrtti> domas: why?
[10:25] <Jordan_U> GameSpot, It basically set's off alarms in all of the chanel op's irc clients, and you don't want to piss them off :)
[10:25] <GameSpot> how can i donate to ubuntu
[10:25] <newtubuntu> VMWare or VirtualBox for an XP virtual machine. Which one is better ? Why ?
[10:25] <Hobbsee> GameSpot: we are the people that you call when someone is spamming and such.  we usually respond with kicks, removes, and bans.  and worse.
[10:25] <Hobbsee> GameSpot: we dont do tech help, per se, and abusing the !ops call will just get you kicked.
[10:25] <domas> Myrtti: Ubuntu never loved Parallels.
[10:25] <Coldopm> Flannel, no it doesn't, want me to restart and write down exact error?
[10:25] <GameSpot> what is !ops
[10:25] <Hobbsee> GameSpot: ubuntu.com/donate, i believe
[10:25] <compengi> is there a way i can right a text in a pdf file?
[10:25] <Hobbsee> !ops > GameSpot
[10:25] <Flannel> Coldopm: exact errors are always better.  Yeah, if you don't mind.
[10:25] <Hobbsee> GameSpot: the factoid called earlier
[10:25] <GameSpot> what does ops do
[10:25] <cvd_> yep everytime i startup the pc and logon ubuntu freeze and i have to restart.. and then its fine
[10:25] <Coldopm> flannel, OK brb
[10:26] <domas> and I need it to run on Parallels - there was decision to run our server farm on Ubuntu, and I'll need to engineer packages somehow ;-)
[10:26] <DarkMageZ> GameSpot, it calls the admins. which will annoy them if it wasn't nessesary.
[10:26] <cvd_> maybe its firefox, a video driver or something, how i know?
[10:26] <domas> now some servers are already running ubuntu
[10:26] <domas> thats probably the biggest website running ubuntu \o/
[10:27] <GameSpot> well 2 years ago i won the megamillions in usa worth 221 millions dollars

[10:29] <debouit> Il y a t-il des francais ?

[10:29] <domas> Jordan_U: parallels were first to offer proper virtualization on macosx
[10:30] <Jordan_U> domas, I wouldn't call it "proper" ...

[10:30] <recoy^> hello all!
[10:30] <domas> Jordan_U: 'proper' as in 'chip-based'
[10:30] <Jordan_U> domas, Still no good support for USB devices
[10:30] <domas> Jordan_U: thats what I need least :)
[10:30] <domas> Jordan_U: I emulate servers on my poor workstation :)
[10:30] <newtubuntu> VMWare or VirtualBox for an XP virtual machine. Which one is better ? Why ?
[10:31] <GameSpot> I see they have made a ubuntu-women channel/organization, do they get a different version of ubuntu as well, a easier one to work with, since women arent.. you know, that educated

[10:32] <domas> I guess I'd write parallels support
[10:32] <domas> they end up fixing stuff :)
[10:32] <recoy^> Jordan_U: synaptic?

[10:33] <punux> does anyone know how to unlock a locked folder?
[10:33] <THE> hello
[10:33] <recoy^> Jordan_U: ok ill try thankyou
[10:33] <cvd_> where is GameSpot?
[10:34] <Jordan_U> cvd_, He was kicked
[10:34] <Coldopm> Flannel: The error I am getting is, "GDM could not write to your authorization file. This could be because you are out of Disk Space, or your home directory is not open for writing. In any case you cannot be logged in. Please contact your system admin."
[10:34] <Jordan_U> punux, What do you mean by locked?
[10:34] <recoy^> Jordan_U: it says i already have it installed
[10:34] <Flannel> Coldopm: alright, so the next question is obviously, are you out of space?  Or are your permissions messed up?
[10:35] <Jordan_U> recoy^, Then use it from Applications -> Sound & Video
[10:35] <Coldopm> Well I am not out of space thats for sure
[10:35] <cvd_> :-(
[10:35] <THE> i have a troblem when i boot ubuntu

[10:35] <THE> >.<
[10:35] <Jordan_U> THE, Give more details, if someone can help they will
[10:35] <Coldopm> Flannel: I have no idea how to check my current permissions since I am running LiveCD
[10:35] <THE> OK
[10:35] <Flannel> Coldopm: You can boot up into single user mode (at grub, recovery console), that'll just be a terminal.  And you can check your permissions for your home folder and stuff.
[10:35] <cvd_> hey what is better .ogg . flac or its the same
[10:35] <Flannel> Coldopm: oh, ok.  You'll just need to mount your harddrive
[10:35] <^NighT^WalkeR^> can someone name me server for local use of PHP?
[10:35] <phoinix_> Hello, can someone help me? I've just installed uubntu, in a packard bell laptop. Everything works flawlssly except the sound card. I get the initial ubuntu sound during login, along with a scremingly loud very high frequency sound. And after that, sound is dead
[10:36] <Jordan_U> cvd_, ogg is lossy, flac is lossless
[10:36] <Azul> cvd_: .flac is better of course
[10:36] <Coldopm> Flannel can this be done with LiveCD?
[10:36] <Flannel> Coldopm: yeah.
[10:36] <Azul> but flac consumes huge disk space
[10:36] <Flannel> ^NighT^WalkeR^: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[10:36] <Coldopm> Flannel: One sec i will brb
[10:36] <^NighT^WalkeR^> apache... right... had forgot the name
[10:36] <Azul> too bad most mp3 players don't play ogg
[10:36] <Coldopm> Flannel: Can you give me a hint as to how to mount my HD?
[10:36] <Pirate_Hunter> cvd_: depends .ogg is mostly use as itis useful but flac has much better compression at the cost of system resources
[10:37] <cvd_> so its save to encode all to flac onstead og .ogg
[10:37] <recoy^> Jordan_U: check pm
[10:37] <Azul> cvd_: right
[10:37] <Azul> cvd_: probably use flac only when you want to edit the file
[10:37] <Azul> but for general purpose ogg is best
[10:38] <Jordan_U> recoy^, It's better to stay in channel if you don't mind, then others can chime in
[10:38] <newtubuntu> weird, I think the drives I created in my installation didn't mount on boot
[10:38] <Fl1p> hi, what's the easiest way to install an older version from vim, using the apt-get ?

[10:38] <cvd_> and theora is like xvid?
[10:38] <Pirate_Hunter> cvd_: I wouldnt advice to use flac unless you really need it .ogg would do for most videos
[10:38] <Flannel> Coldopm: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount#head-0fdee867fdf2bacbf96cfbb0c41eda446d2ca8ee  but, I've gotta run. There are plenty of other people that can help.  You can chagne permissions from the liveCD, actually.
[10:38] <Azul> newtubuntu: you can always edit /etc/fstab
[10:38] <Fl1p> is it true that vim 70 doesnt support syntax highlighting ?
[10:38] <Coldopm> Flannel: ty anyways

[10:43] <simplyw001> Azul: There *is* no default root password
[10:43] <cvd_> its till say no player
[10:43] <qnyc> domas, I just meant sudo -i is better than sudo bash
[10:43] <simplyw001> qnyc: he can't log in
[10:43] <Coldopm> simply: yes tried them all, it gives me GDM could not write to your auth file error...Anyone in here have any idea?
[10:43] <simplyw001> Coldopm: then log in on a tty
[10:43] <CyberMad> when you use Terminal Server Client, how to easily switch from Windows to Ubuntu?
[10:43] <Fl1p> predaeus : you simply type :syntax in command mode
[10:44] <CyberMad> i use full screen mode
[10:44] <Fl1p> predaeus : but it says not supported in this version
[10:44] <young> test
[10:44] <MRiGnS> faied
[10:44] <cvd_> the only player that work great was the mplyer but with out sound
[10:44] <Coldopm> qnyc: can you explain please I am relatively new
[10:45] <predaeus> Fl1p, might need some special configuration, or the vim that was packaged for ubuntu was compiled without support, but I think that would be unlikely
[10:45] <simplyw001> Coldopm: he's assuming you can log in, in which case sudo -i gives you a root shell
[10:45] <cvd_> damn it theres always  something
[10:45] <simplyw001> but if you can't, then it's a moot point
[10:45] <simplyw001> Hit ctrl+alt+f1 and log in there
[10:45] <simplyw001> as user
[10:45] <THE> damn
[10:45] <qnyc> Coldopm, you could try ctrl+alt+f1 to get to a text console and see if you can log in there, ctrl+alt+f7 to get back
[10:46] <qnyc> Coldopm, see if it's a password problem or an X problem
[10:46] <arooni> whats a good media plaeyr
[10:46] <arooni> i want a winamp linke player
[10:47] <gordonjcp> xmms
[10:47] <qnyc> xmms is like winamp
[10:47] <Azul> or beep
[10:47] <arooni> but i also want to be able to have the app scan my entire comp for media
[10:47] <gordonjcp> or indeed, beep
[10:47] <ealx> Hi, What's the difference between libqt-dev libqt4-dev-kdecopy?
[10:47] <simplyw001> gordonjcp: Why would you reccommend such an ancient program?
[10:47] <arooni> so i can have a media library
[10:47] <gordonjcp> arooni: then perhaps you want rhythmbox
[10:47] <cvd_> audacious its better
[10:47] <Fl1p> predaeus : hmm yes still possible, i am currently reading something about runtimes...
[10:47] <gordonjcp> simplyw001: because he wants something like winamp
[10:47] <Azul> winamp is the best mp3 player even when it's old
[10:47] <Azul> i use winamp 2.8 still
[10:48] <simplyw001> gordonjcp: So xmms2 then. Or beep. Or audacious or anything else that's actually updated in living memory
[10:48] <Azul> very simple.. no being a smart ass and making databases, libraries and stuff
[10:48] <gordonjcp> wow, it's up to 2.8 now?
[10:48] <cvd_> audacious feels more like winamp than xmms
[10:48] <young> beep-media-player
[10:48] <Azul> it's 5.something now
[10:48] <bouter> hi   how do I make a filesystem on ubuntu in w95 fat32 ?       I already fdisked it to the right parameters. I just don' t know the sysntax to make the filesystem
[10:48] <arooni> does WINE really work?
[10:48] <simplyw001> simplyw001: Or even rhythmbox, which is like winamp in many areas.
[10:48] <gordonjcp> Azul: I haven't actually used Windows since 95 was current
[10:48] <arooni> cuz can't i install winamp
[10:48] <arooni> via WINE?
[10:48] <gordonjcp> arooni: probably not a lot of point in doing that
[10:48] <cvd_> its there a way to share a folder to a guest os?
[10:48] <THE> target filesystem doesn't have /sbin/init
[10:48] <THE> BusyBox v1.1.3 (debian 1:1.1.3ubuntu3) build-in shell (ash)
[10:48] <THE> /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
[10:48] <arooni> oh
[10:49] <THE> who know
[10:49] <cvd_> using a virtual machine
[10:49] <arooni> why not gordonjcp ?
[10:49] <cvd_> ?
[10:49] <predaeus> Fl1p, see https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vim/+question/6111  and http://fuzzyblog.com/archives/2005/12/10/fixing-vim-syntax-highlighting-on-ubuntu/  and other web entries. Do these fixes work?
[10:49] <gordonjcp> arooni: 'cos there are lots of native mp3 players in Linux
[10:49] <THE> me???
[10:49] <EdLin> cvd_: vmware can do it
[10:49] <Jordan_U> THE, That is in my experience a hard problem to diagnose, if it is a fresh install try installing with the alternate install CD
[10:49] <cvd_> really
[10:49] <arooni> gordonjcp: can any mentioned play files on NTFS drives/ scan files on NTFS drives?
[10:49] <Azul> wine something you really can't do in linux
[10:49] <cvd_> i never can do it
[10:49] <young> virtualbox
[10:49] <Azul> not an mp3 player
[10:50] <cvd_> i don know how to
[10:50] <Azul> or notepad, or ie explorer
[10:50] <drunkbob4> ntfs-g3
[10:50] <simplyw001> arooni: As long as the ntfs drives are mounted, they all can
[10:50] <Jordan_U> aroo, Filesystems are transparent to applications
[10:50] <EdLin> cvd_: you can even do it with the free player if you use samba or cifs.
[10:50] <cvd_> cuz i have q fat32 to my files
[10:50] <Jordan_U> aroo, If it is mounted, then an application can read it
[10:50] <predaeus> THE, probably a udev problem, search the web for it (e.g. google brings up results)
[10:50] <Jordan_U> *any
[10:50] <gejr> So..I'm trying to play a video on my laptop.The video file is on my ubuntu server. It plays for a couple of seconds and then stops and complains about losing packets etc. How much bandwidth is needed to stream video in this way? The server is mounted on the laptop through sshfs btw.
[10:50] <arooni> simplyw001: if i can brose the drives, does that mean they're mounted
[10:50] <cvd_> with virtualbox?
[10:50] <simplyw001> yes
[10:50] <newtubuntu> young:  between VMWare and VirtualBox, which one would you recommend to run virtual machines ?
[10:51] <qnyc> gejr, ssh is processor intensive as it is encrypted
[10:51] <gordonjcp> arooni: that's a different problem
[10:51] <gordonjcp> arooni: you need to mount the ntfs drive
[10:51] <young> you can use virtualbox freely.
[10:51] <cvd_> that my dream come true share the same HDfat32 with a guest os
[10:51] <qnyc> gejr, you could be limited to 40 kB/s or even lower depending on your processor
[10:51] <Jordan_U> !ntfs-3g | arooni
[10:51] <arooni> gordonjcp: but i can double click and play files on those drives
[10:51] <ubotu> arooni: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[10:51] <gejr> qnyc: yea i realized that might be a problem as i was typing out the question.. :) do you think samba would be better?
[10:52] <gejr> qnyc: or anything else?
[10:52] <Azul> but ssh is secure
[10:52] <gordonjcp> arooni: then the drives are mounted
[10:52] <arooni> that doesnt mean its mounted?
[10:52] <simplyw001> arooni: Then you should have no problems
[10:52] <arooni> ah ok
[10:52] <simplyw001> arooni: that does mean it's mounted
[10:52] <gordonjcp> arooni: you're pretty much there, in that case
[10:52] <cvd_> i can do it with the Virtual Box?
[10:52] <newtubuntu> young:  between VMWare and VirtualBox, which one would you recommend to run virtual machines ?
[10:52] <qnyc> gejr, anything else ;)
[10:52] <bouter> anyone?
[10:52] <gejr> qnyc: what options do i have?
[10:52] <cvd_> VistualBox feels faster
[10:52] <qnyc> gejr, nfs and samba are built in to ubuntu gui, if you want to use that
[10:52] <debouit> hello
[10:53] <newtubuntu> cvd_  you used both ?
[10:53] <cvd_> vmware its like bloated more profesional
[10:53] <cvd_> nop
[10:53] <EdLin> newtubuntu: try out the free VMWare player with an Ubuntu image from the site, and try virtualbox, and see which is better.
[10:53] <qnyc> gejr, I guess nfs if you're all linux, samba otherwise
[10:53] <cvd_> only VirtualBox
[10:53] <Azul> is virtual box free?
[10:53] <newtubuntu> I'm unable to use VMWare, I always get 'vmmon' errors
[10:53] <gejr> qnyc: ok thank you a lot. I'll read up on nfs.
[10:53] <bouter> Azul yes
[10:53] <arooni> is there any danger to using ntfs-config
[10:53] <cvd_> Virtual = free
[10:53] <qnyc> gejr, you can do it through System -> Administration -> Shared Folders
[10:53] <arooni> meaning any danger to writing to ntfs?
[10:53] <bouter> VMWare server free
[10:53] <Jordan_U> aroo, No, it is very stable
[10:54] <newtubuntu> bouter: but VirtualBox is not in Synaptic
[10:54] <gejr> qnyc: I'd rather stick to terminal :)
[10:54] <qnyc> gejr, nice
[10:54] <gejr> besides, i don't run ubuntu on my lap
[10:54] <young> yes. VirtualBox is free for personally use.
[10:54] <cvd_> its in Automatix
[10:54] <bouter> it' s better to use vmware
[10:54] <EdLin> there's also QEMU, which is better, virtualbox or QEMU?
[10:54] <arooni> ok so which app will run through my whole comp and find all media files
[10:54] <Jordan_U> !automatix | cvd_
[10:54] <ubotu> cvd_: 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.

[10:54] <arooni> and put them into a media lbirary?
[10:54] <bouter> about the vmon errors     quit simple to solve
[10:54] <newtubuntu> bouter: why is it better to use VMWare ?
[10:54] <THE> *.*
[10:54] <Azul> is ubuntu free to use in a private company?
[10:54] <bouter> I suppose you' re trying to install vmware on feisty?
[10:55] <newtubuntu> bouter:  Yes
[10:55] <qnyc> Azul, it's completely free for any use
[10:55] <gordonjcp> Azul: of course
[10:55] <EdLin> Azul: absolutely
[10:55] <Jordan_U> Azul, Ubuntu is free to use for anything
[10:55] <cvd_> i dont have any problems with the Auto

[11:17] <stefg> Hi, i'm a bit lost on the following problem. I want to write a script that ssh's into another box, starts vlc there to stream TV to the local box, and then starts vlc on the local box to watch the stream. The problem is once the script is ssh'd into the server, i can't start a /local/ vlc from it. any hints, links or ideas?
[11:17] <wols> stefg: erro message?
[11:17] <yeniklasor> Do you know any program to select an area of the screen then zoom (fullscreen) it ?
[11:18] <heskethj> Hey, does anybody know how to disable hibernation/kinit. I get these "kinit: no resume image" at boot and I assume it is because it is looking for an image to restore from hibernation. I don't use hibernation so I'd like to turn this off as it is time wasting.
[11:18] <wols> coldopm: stop gdm first.
[11:18] <cvd_> its like 20$ ++ shipping for no matter what thing you bye in newegg
[11:18] <wols> then empty your /tmp folder, then restart it
[11:18] <predaeus> heskethj, it likely does not even take half a second
[11:18] <coldopm> wols: how can I do this (kep in mind all I have access to is ctrl+alt+f1 interface)
[11:19] <wols>  /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[11:19] <stefg> wols: no error message, because the script will only 'hang' at the point where it starts the remote vlc. How do i tell that i want to execute a *local* command now?
[11:19] <heskethj> predaeus, it seems to be the longest process on my boot. It might take about 5 seconds
[11:19] <cvd_> wols
[11:19] <predaeus> heskethj, hm ok, weird.
[11:19] <wols> stefg: you mean on the box that ssh starts from?
[11:20] <cvd_> what is the price of gforce 6200 over there?
[11:20] <coldopm> wols: I typed sudo gdm stop and it said GDM already running. Abrting!
[11:20] <wols> coldopm: you need to use sudo of course
[11:21] <wols> cvd_: your 20$ shipping explains it
[11:21] <stefg> wols: goes like : ssh user@server vlc -some_arguments ...... then it executes vlc on the remote box, and waits for vlc to be terminated again (which is right). Now i need that to go to background and start a local vlc to watch the stream
[11:21] <coldopm> what is GDM neways?
[11:22] <osiris_> coldopm: Gnome display manager
[11:22] <Brun> how i can install driver to Video Card? ATI Radeon 7000/VE

[11:22] <coldopm> so when i try to login and it tells me GDM could not write to auth file...I am having a grafical issue?
[11:23] <wols> Brun: you will need the driver named "ati"
[11:23] <cvd_> hey beryl its waht and compiz is what? i know but i need boath? i dont understand
[11:23] <wols> Brun: nothing to actually install, only config. ubuntu already comes with the driver

[11:27] <predaeus> heskethj, I think that hibernate might be part of the kernel and not an init script. No idea how to disable it, there does not even seem to be a module that you could blacklist. You could search the forums, maybe there is details where people configure it.
[11:28] <BadRobot> so can anyone help me with this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27385/
[11:28] <BadRobot> ?
[11:28] <heskethj> predaeus, I've googled a bit with little luck. Perhaps there is a boot parameter? Thanks for helping though.
[11:28] <stefg> Hi, i could use some mentoring on using a subshell in a script. I need to write a script that does ssh user@server vlc -some_arguments_starting_a_stream. It executes vlc on the remote box, and waits for vlc to be terminated again (which is right). Now i need that to go to background and start a local vlc to watch the stream. Hints, links or ideas?
[11:28] <predaeus> heskethj, yes! Actually I think there is one.
[11:29] <coldopm> wols: I have no idea...took me forever to install and update then first time I reboot and now I cant login kinda frusterated
[11:29] <wols> BadRobot: remove your duplicate entries. the warnings are pretty clear
[11:29] <BadRobot> I'm having problems with duplicate lines on the synaptic,i try to update the source list but it gives the errors
[11:29] <wols> coldopm: you set up a user
[11:29] <wols> use that
[11:29] <predaeus> heskethj, I remember there was one to specify where the RAM image is located when it is not on swap.
[11:29] <coldopm> wols: i know
[11:29] <BadRobot> so,how do i do that?
[11:29] <wols> coldopm: you logged in the VT1 too
[11:29] <BadRobot> wols
[11:29] <coldopm> wols: but it ill not let me login
[11:29] <osiris_> BadRobot: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:29] <BadRobot> thx
[11:29] <wols> coldopm: have you restarted gdm like I told you? removed the auth files?
[11:29] <osiris_> BadRobot: Check for any duplicate entries
[11:30] <heskethj> predaeus, ok. Any idea where I might find it or where to look

[11:44] <Myrtti> coldopm: sorry, no
[11:44] <VSpike> babo: yep
[11:45] <Celdronis> Frogzoo_ what about Greek language support [ i want toi be able to type greeks in openoffice :)
[11:45] <jhaig> Matthai: Do you mean that it removes too much or too little?
[11:45] <babo> VSpike: which country are you in ?
[11:45] <jussi01> babo: nope
[11:45] <VSpike> babo: england
[11:45] <Matthai> too little
[11:45] <babo> damn
[11:45] <Matthai> only 45kb
[11:45] <babo> jussi01: where are you ?
[11:45] <Frogzoo_> Celdronis: shouldn't be a problem - greek's a common enough language

[11:46] <babo> is there anyone from the US or Canada that can test this for me ? http://www.flowerhour.biz ...
[11:46] <Celdronis> Frogzoo_ i suppose my Radeon 9250 AGP will be fine with it :)
[11:46] <coldopm> When I try to login 7.04 from GUI, I get the following error, " GDM could not write to your authorization file" I am currently logged in VT1. Can anone please tell me the command to allow writing?
[11:46] <jhaig> Matthai: I think you will need to go through and remove everything you don't need.  ubuntu-desktop is not a real package - it just has dependencies that make sure everything you need for a desktop in installed.
[11:46] <coldopm> pred: one second
[11:46] <Frogzoo_> Celdronis: yep, should be fine
[11:46] <Matthai> yes, I did this, but Ithought there is a more easy solution :-/
[11:46] <magnetron> babo: please no ads
[11:46] <khan> hi
[11:46] <jhaig> Matthai: I think the proper solution is to use the alternative install CD.
[11:47] <VSpike> magnetron: FWIW I don't think it is an ad, unless this a place where lots of florists hang out
[11:47] <Matthai> the problem is that server install CD has an error in kernel and I cannot use it in VirtualBox
[11:47] <babo> magnetron, what ads ?
[11:47] <jhaig> Matthai: I think if you uninstall X you will find that lots of desktop packages will be automatically uninstalled.
[11:47] <Celdronis> Frogzoo_ thx for ur time :) Ill try the install and coemn back later [hopefully for chatting only and not for installation support] 
[11:47] <wols> coldopm: a long time ago I asked you about the perms of your /tmp file and your user's home directory
[11:48] <Matthai> yes, but not all. OK, thanks anyway
[11:48] <danny3793> how can i delete things off my CD-RW CDs so i can write new items to them?? it tells me i do not have ownership of the items
[11:48] <magnetron> "Unlimited email reminders from ONLY $19.99 per month.", babo
[11:48] <Matthai> btw:anyone knows wheh there will be support for crypto disks in ubuntu installer?
[11:48] <babo> magnetron: what ?
[11:49] <babo> magnetron, that's an offer to florists who sign their customers up to my service ... what business is it of yours ?
[11:49] <coldopm> wols: I am not to familiar with sudo commands....So if you could let m know how I get in I could tell you ;p
[11:49] <Celdronis> oh someone's got ubuntu work with Ati X1300 ? its on another pc... :)

[11:53] <magnetron> babo: we did not opt in for you to post that link here
[11:53] <`4aFkA`> wols ok
[11:53] <gordonjcp> brad016: it depends
[11:53] <wols> NecromantiA: it is then. but you might have to compile them yourself
[11:53] <brad016> gordonjcp, like
[11:53] <NecromantiA> recompile kernel?
[11:53] <wols> brad016: by reading the docs that come with it or are on the website
[11:53] <babo> magnetron: you think I'm advertising by asking someone to check that my site is up from their country ?
[11:53] <wols> NecromantiA: compile a module for the kernel. not the kernel itself
[11:53] <magnetron> babo: yes
[11:53] <brad016> wolfanger, okay, i'll se of there arre docs
[11:54] <Celdronis> !fglrx
[11:54] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:54] <gordonjcp> brad016: well, in general, if it's packaged with the autoconf gubbins, you'd untar it, cd to the directory and type "./configure && make && sudo make install"
[11:54] <thedonvaughn> brad016, extract it by tar -zxf for .tar.gz or tar -jxf for .tar.bz2.  then read the README or INSTALL file that comes with it.  usually it's "./configure && make && make install"
[11:54] <Celdronis> Frogzoo_ ?
[11:54] <Pirate_Hunter> just configuring Cedega and this came up: Your OpenGL drivers do not appear to be setup correctly - how cna i fix it
[11:54] <wols> brad016: don't just run the make and make install
[11:54] <NecromantiA> ok then i can find a how to to help me
[11:54] <wols> !checkinstall | brad016
[11:54] <ubotu> brad016: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running!
[11:54] <gordonjcp> brad016: you'd probably want to run "./configure --help" to find the options for compiling, in case there's something you need to set

[11:55] <Frogzoo_> Celdronis: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:55] <Pirate_Hunter> magnetron: kk
[11:56] <predaeus> Kyle123, probably a driver issue, you could install in text mode (it is a wizard) with the "Alternate CD" but it might not boot up then to the graphical interface due to the same driver problems. You might then have to install correct drivers through console (text interface).
[11:56] <defrysk> dv, sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop sudo apt-get autoremove ; sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop gdm
[11:57] <wols> dv: dpkg -l |grep kdebase

[11:58] <defrysk> dv, first sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop
[11:59] <defrysk> dv, then sudo apt-get autoremove
[11:59] <dv> defrysk: right
[11:59] <defrysk> or is it sudo autoremove ?
[11:59] <defrysk> hmm ;s
[11:59] <Lorne_Kun|Laptop> hmm
[11:59] <Lorne_Kun|Laptop> this is odd...
[11:59] <magnetron> Pheanix: ask that company, they encrypt their movies and music to prevent you from viewing/listening it
[12:00] <wolfanger> does somebody use last valknut release ? or know a multidownload dcpp client 4 linux ?

[12:01] <idefix> I don't know which one to pick from synapitc? what is a good MiKTeX or LaTeX compiler?
[12:01] <magnetron> wolfanger: In add/remove applications, there is a software called "dc_gui2" try that one
[12:01] <DarkMageZ> wolfanger, download from multiple sources at one time or download multiple files at a time?
[12:01] <tunganet> I believe my soundcard is a 4 channel one, but i cannot get my rear/center speakers to work without turning on "matrix mode" for my speakers. How come?? :(
[12:02] <wolfanger> multiple sources at one time
[12:02] <wolfanger> the valknut on repo is a old release i guess 0.37

[12:03] <Frederick> installed and linked to APR-UTIL.
[12:04] <dv> defrysk: well, it doesn't work. apt-get autoremove only lists wireshark (for reasons beyond me because i installed and use it)
[12:04] <Lorne_Kun|Laptop> ahh thats why everything was buggerred :0
[12:04] <Frederick> but I do have berkeley db installed at least apt says so, concerning the linked part im really not sure
[12:04] <Lorne_Kun|Laptop> the flash plugin didnt finish installing :)
[12:05] <zero-9376> askand: i too am looking at a GUI for a bash script
[12:06] <askand> zero-9376:  have you find anything? I am trying to learn pygtk but its hard
[12:06] <idefix> is it really dangerous to install software that can't be authenticated?
[12:07] <stefg> idefix: if not now, maybe in the future?
[12:07] <gordonjcp> there's a thing that pops up dialogue boxes from bash scripts
[12:07] <ceil420> i think that's more a "don't come crying to us if it doesn't work" message than a "this software's gonna break your computer" message
[12:07] <gordonjcp> can't remember what it's called though
[12:07] <CyberMad> how to make by default there is confirmation on delete something?
[12:07] <Pirate_Hunter> for the sis grapchics card what is the equivelant driver in ubuntu when doing Xorg
[12:08] <stefg> CyberMad: gui or cli ?
[12:08] <J-_> can I 'wget domain.com/file.deb' with no gui in my home directory? Then once I wget how do I install a .deb with no gui?
[12:08] <zero-9376> no, i initially was planning to to learn/use python later but im fast approaching my deadline and having a gui would be preferable for my supervisor
[12:09] <stefg> J-_: sudo dpkg -i foo.deb
[12:09] <J-_> stefg: thanks =)
[12:09] <CyberMad> stefg GUI.. gnome (ubuntu)
[12:10] <stefg> CyberMad: it's got a trashbin ...
[12:10] <CyberMad> and cli too.. :) nice question..
[12:11] <stefg> CyberMad: on cli that would involve to alias the rm -command with a small script that puts a 'really do it?' confirmation prompt before the actual action (Ugh, how annoying)
[12:11] <jensen> CyberMad:  alias rm='rm -i'
[12:11] <jensen> if you need it, but as stefg says, annoying.
[12:11] <Pirate_Hunter>  for the sis grapchics card what is the equivelant driver in ubuntu when doing Xorg
[12:12] <CyberMad> stefg hehe, how about GUI?
[12:12] <jensen> Pirate_Hunter: probably xserver-xorg-video-sis
[12:13] <wotanist> Hi, how do I access a hidden folder in my home directory?
[12:13] <stefg> CyberMad: did the invention of the trashbin pass unnoticed by you ?
[12:13] <Pirate_Hunter> jensen: hmm I dont think that is actually available as I was looking at it
[12:14] <Kagar> Moo
[12:14] <jensen> Pirate_Hunter: well, off a quick search that package shows up. you might need to load the kernel module to use the driver though.
[12:15] <Jordan_U> Kagar, apt-get moo
[12:15] <wols> wotanist: just type its name
[12:15] <Kagar> package "moo" not found
[12:15] <Kagar> :(
[12:15] <Pirate_Hunter> jensen: hmm how would I do that
[12:16] <wotanist> How do I get to the home directory from Terminal? :S
[12:16] <Jordan_U> Kagar, Not, apt-get install moo, just apt-get moo

[12:19] <Maxdamantus> Jordan_U, it's apt-get moo
[12:19] <AlexC_> dff: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and remove quite
[12:19] <Maxdamantus> aptitude moo says there are no easter eggs.
[12:19] <jhaig> Jordan_U: Yes, that is it.
[12:19] <J-_> I'm not asking for current.. Dapper Drake is a bit older than feisty, no?
[12:19] <Jordan_U> Maxdamantus, Then you havn't tried aptitude moo :)
[12:19] <Maxdamantus> [root@maxdamantus (/download/xchat-2.8.2)] $ aptitude moo
[12:19] <Maxdamantus> There are no Easter Eggs in this program.
[12:19] <Maxdamantus> Try apt-get moo
[12:19] <jhaig> Maxdamantus: Try "aptitude -v moo" and then "aptitude -vv moo" (and so on)

[12:22] <hub|ankebut> how can download deb pakage for retroshare ????
[12:22] <Dabian> Azul: Why does it appear in the main section then?
[12:23] <jensen> Dabian: Pidgin was renamed after feisty, you can find the older package gaim in the repository, or build from source downloaded from the pidgin page
[12:23] <wols> jensen: install ipmasq
[12:23] <Azul> !pidgin | Dabian
[12:23] <ubotu> Dabian: pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It wasn't released in time for Feisty. Expect it in gutsy. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info.

[12:23] <Maxdamantus> It doesn't go any further than "What is it?  It's an elephant being eaten by a snake, of course."
[12:23] <Dabian> If pidgin isn't in feisty, how come I have it installed?
[12:23] <raddy> Can anybody help me in that?
[12:23] <Maxdamantus> Pfft.. That PHP script to continuously aptitude moo was useless.
[12:23] <jhaig> thufir007hawat12: Not every version has long term support.  It is a lot of work keeping updates for multiple versions, especially when a new version comes out every 6 months.  However, some people don't want to have to upgrade every 6 months so every so often a release is given longer support.
[12:23] <Azul> when i tried to install pidgin from the repos, it asked me to remove the nautilus-sendto package
[12:23] <Dabian> aptitude tells me its in main!

[12:24] <Jordan_U> Dabian, Are you running Gutsy?

[12:28] <Azul> Dabian: synaptic.. i'm not sure which repository though?
[12:28] <Azul> though.
[12:28] <raddy> Jordan_U: Azul: My Realtek based integrated wired ethernet controller is not usable in Ubuntu
[12:28] <Jordan_U> Dabian, That output makes no sense...
[12:29] <wols> raddy: what realtek chip exactly?
[12:29] <Dabian> Azul: I dont have a send-to when I right-click, apparently :)
[12:29] <Azul> Dabian: sucks to be you :P
[12:29] <Dabian> Azul: Heh .. never used it ;)
[12:29] <drachenblut> Azul: why did you ditch pidgin for gaim
[12:29] <Passa> how can i uninstall the quake 4 multiplayer demo
[12:29] <Passa> which doesnt even work but i dont want to get into that right now..
[12:29] <Jordan_U> Dabian, Can you pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[12:29] <wols> Passa: how did you install it?
[12:29] <Dabian> drachenblut: He misses something
[12:29] <intelikey> and i can't access a console because as soon as this problem starts up  the stupid thing stops displaying the console also
[12:29] <Passa> installed the .run file
[12:30] <jensen> Dabian: many people built a 3rd party .deb from the sources you probably downloaded and installed one
[12:30] <Azul> drachenblut: i just said.. for some reason pidgin doesn't like nautilus-sendto and wants it removed before it gets installed
[12:30] <raddy> wols: Realtek RTL8168/8111 Family PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC
[12:30] <Dabian> jensen: Pidgin is in aptitude
[12:30] <Dabian> jensen: It must come from a source.
[12:30] <Jordan_U> Dabian, Can you pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[12:30] <wols> Dabian: apc-ache policy pidgin
[12:30] <wols> Dabian: apt-ache policy pidgin
[12:30] <Dabian> Jordan_U: I could .. but there must be a way to find out .. oh .. wols

[12:33] <wols> raddy: that's should be supported. /sbin/ifconfig -a
[12:33] <Jordan_U> Dabian, Alpha as in not yet Beta
[12:34] <Stokesy> can someone recommend me a program kind of like dreamweaver? with ftp functionality and the ability to work straight from smb shares?
[12:34] <defrysk> Dabian, are you sure you are not trolling ?
[12:34] <Dabian> Hmm . I guess alpha just means it is still being developed
[12:34] <Dabian> defrysk: I usually dont.  I am not native english tongued though.
[12:34] <jensen> its alright, alpha and beta are greek
[12:35] <defrysk> and gibbon is a monkey
[12:35] <Dabian> defrysk: Besides, even though I use the term myself, I don't really understand it.

[12:38] <fuser> I deleted a file
[12:38] <Dabian> !ask | Hawker
[12:38] <Hawker> that doesn't help
[12:38] <ubotu> Hawker: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:38] <Hawker> i already asked
[12:38] <defrysk> fuser, rm means gone for good
[12:38] <wols> fuser: ext3?
[12:38] <raddy> wols: nope, working fine in both Vista and XP
[12:38] <fuser> wols: yes
[12:39] <fuser> I didn`t do rm
[12:39] <Hawker> i broke my updates
[12:39] <wols> raddy: then do what I asked you
[12:39] <pako> hello. how will i disable login prompt in text console?
[12:39] <pako> I have an ncurses application that is to get started after I turn the power on.
[12:39] <Dabian> Hawker: How?
[12:39] <fuser> I deleted it from file browser only
[12:39] <Hawker> i accidently played with some files i shouldn't have
[12:39] <defrysk> fuser, open nowtilus, set it to show hidden files and go to .Trash
[12:39] <dff> how do you start the SSH server?
[12:40] <wols> dff: just install it
[12:40] <Jordan_U> dff, sudo apt-get install ssh
[12:40] <fuser> defrysk: I have emptied it from trash
[12:40] <idefix> how can I store a public key of a repository on my computer?
[12:40] <fuser> so .Trash is empty
[12:40] <jensen> dff: /etc/init.d/ssh start
[12:40] <defrysk> fuser, deletion from trash is : gone for good
[12:40] <Jordan_U> Hawker, What files?
[12:40] <iesos> How do I remove a link, but not the destination. (the link is on a write protected media)
[12:41] <fuser> Ah..
[12:41] <fuser> wols: You have any ideas ?
[12:41] <iesos> ?
[12:41] <Hawker> uhh system list or something
[12:41] <Dabian> !beryl | hawker
[12:41] <Jordan_U> Hawker, sources.list ?
[12:41] <bionoid> iesos: You can't remove a link unless you can write to the filesystem. That said, a simple rm on the link will do the trick.
[12:41] <Hawker> yeah
[12:41] <kimmey> any way to increase the transfer-speed between my desktop pc and external harddive? it takes about 1h20m for 20GB
[12:41] <Dabian> !effects | hawker
[12:41] <ubotu> hawker: beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[12:41] <ubotu> hawker: For help with Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects
[12:42] <Hawker> it's not to much beryl, it was trying to get beryl that helped me break my updates
[12:42] <dff> I can't seem to make a connection to live ubuntu?
[12:42] <dff> is there iptables?
[12:42] <Jordan_U> !easysource | Hawker
[12:42] <ubotu> Hawker: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[12:43] <azi`> hm.. i've just installed ubuntu on a brand new PC with resolution 1680x1024 and X doesn't let me start it with resolutions above 800x600. i've tried to set that manually but then X just don't start.. any clue what may be the case? here's the error : http://rafb.net/p/f7j8FW65.html
[12:43] <iesos> bionoid, sorry, it might have bee unclear. The link is in RAM and the source is on a Live CD. The link is a directory, so a rm -r doesn't work, since it wants to remove the content of the CD first.
[12:43] <jensen> not as far as i know, install and start should be it, unable to login, or unable to connect?
[12:43] <Jordan_U> azi`, What GFX card?
[12:43] <azi`> Jordan_U: intel i810
[12:44] <Jordan_U> azi`, install 915resolution
[12:44] <azi`> Jordan_U: integrated
[12:44] <azi`> Jordan_U: what exactly?
[12:44] <Jordan_U> azi`, It is a package
[12:44] <Jordan_U> azi`, Install it and then restart X
[12:44] <bionoid> iesos: rm -f link_name
[12:44] <bionoid> iesos: no -r
[12:44] <dff> Why isn't the Live Ubuntus SSH taking connections
[12:45] <azi`> Jordan_U: so the package is called 915resolution ? (i have to be sure before going to the machine)
[12:45] <Jordan_U> dff, Ubuntu doesn't have ssh server installed by default
[12:45] <iesos> bionoid: thx
[12:45] <dff> Jordan_U i installed it
[12:45] <Jordan_U> azi`, Yes, and it is in the universe repo
[12:45] <Passa> how can i uninstall quake 4 multiplayer demo?
[12:45] <Jordan_U> azi`, Then just restart X
[12:45] <azi`> Jordan_U: thank you very much.. will try now
[12:46] <Dabian> Its just a step to the right!
[12:46] <jensen> dff: not sure, it worked for me a few days ago, although i think i added a new user for it, that doesnt sound related though =/
[12:46] <dff> ok
[12:46] <iesos> bionoid: did't work...
[12:46] <Jordan_U> dff, Did you try sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start
[12:46] <dff> router problem fosho
[12:46] <iesos> the link is still there
[12:46] <dff> its a router problem
[12:46] <Dabian> dff: Have you kicked your router today?
[12:47] <Dabian> (Hmm .. now I am trolling)
[12:47] <bionoid> iesos: Then there's something else going on. Did you type 'mount' and make sure it's not mounted read-only?
[12:47] <WeeJeWel> How can I change the launcher icon size on a panel?
[12:47] <Stokesy> is running KDE apps on gnome a bad thing?
[12:47] <WeeJeWel> No
[12:47] <magnetron> Stokesy: no
[12:47] <Jordan_U> Stokesy, No, just uses a bit more RAM
[12:48] <pako> how can I enable automatic login in text mode?
[12:48] <Stokesy> for example, i went to install quanta, and it told me it needs to download half a dozen other pakages, all starting with the letter k
[12:48] <iesos> bionoid: I can write to it, so yeah, I'm sure.
[12:48] <CyberMad> i found this on the net: pips-sc58-Redhat9-3.0-CLGE.tgz (Installation File) and pips-3.0-1.src.rpm (Source File) for my printer Epson Stylus C58, which one should i use?
[12:48] <Stokesy> is it a rule that all kde apps have to have a k in the name?
[12:48] <CyberMad> is that will work on debian?
[12:48] <CyberMad> i mean ubuntu
[12:49] <Jordan_U> CyberMad, Was there anything not Redhat specific?
[12:49] <MrOtacon> does anyone know how to connect a nokia n91 via wifi to ubuntu?
[12:49] <bionoid> iesos: Well, works for me (tm)
[12:49] <Passa> what must i do to uninstall the quake 4 multiplayer demo?
[12:50] <iesos> bionoid: hmm.. k, thx anyhow.
[12:51] <raddy> Hello Everybody
[12:53] <Sepero> With the new "upstart" boot method, How do I prevent a program/script, from running?
[12:53] <raddy> wols : http://pastebin.ca/591713
[12:54] <bionoid> iesos: of course, you didn't happen to type rm link_name/  ? doesnt work with a trailing slash IIRC
[12:54] <raddy> wols: the output of the command you asked me to run
[12:54] <Stokesy> whats a good irc client for ubuntu?
[12:54] <mike> xchat
[12:54] <Sepero> Stokesy: xchat
[12:55] <crolle17> is it possible to set/configure the tab for vi/vim?
[12:55] <iesos> bionoid: that did't work either
[12:56] <mads-> Does there exist such a tool in ubuntu (or just for ubuntu) which can repair damaged zip files?
[12:56] <Ind[y] > I run vim on a terminal, editing a huge file. I want to copy the contents of that file into memory. How can I do that?
[12:56] <dff> When my ubuntu starts after its finished loading it displays a black screen and nothing happends
[12:56] <miramana> mads-, zip -FF
[12:56] <Sepero> mads-: If you're not using "unzip-nonfree" the zip file might not actually be corrupt.
[12:56] <dff> how do i fix this?
[12:57] <raddy> Can anybody help me in configuring Realtek RTL8168/8111 Family PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC in ubuntu
[12:57] <dff> there was a power loss and after that it didnt boot
[12:57] <mads-> thanks miramana and Sepero - I will just try it out
[12:57] <magnetron> !enter | dff
[12:57] <ubotu> dff: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[12:58] <dff> after powerloss when i try to start by ubuntu it freezes to a black screen after the "loading bar" has finished
[12:58] <azi`> i've installed 915 resolution and followed the instractions in the README but the thing still doesn't work;( i get a small fraction of the desktop blinking very much each time i start X
[12:58] <raddy> wols : are you there???
[12:59] <Hawker> who wants to connect to my pc and fix my sources.list?
[12:59] <Sepero> Ubuntu needs a recovery mode for people like dff.
[12:59] <dff> there isnt one?
[12:59] <bionoid> Hawker: http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic/
[12:59] <Hawker> i tried that
[12:59] <dff> do i need to reinstall
[01:00] <Hawker> see i can't replace mine, i don't have permissions
[01:00] <raddy> dff: boot in single user mode, run fsck on the target filesystem
[01:00] <dff> how do i boot in single user?
[01:00] <bionoid> Hawker: Um you need to be root to do that, obviously
[01:00] <bionoid> dff: on the grub menu, hit 'e' for edit (iirc) and type the word "single" at the end of the line
[01:00] <Hawker> see there is no root login?
[01:01] <bionoid> Hawker: Open a terminal, type "sudo bash" then type your password.
[01:01] <dff> bionoid i don't have a grub menu because there is only one choice
[01:01] <bionoid> dff: Ah you can still get the menu but I can't recall how. Anyone else?
[01:01] <dff> it skips the whole menu
[01:01] <Hawker> how does this help me replace a file?
[01:01] <raddy> dff: do you have ubuntu cd?
[01:02] <dff> raddy yes?
[01:02] <dff> mount hdd and edit menu.1st?
[01:02] <mads-> miramana : Which zip tool are you doing that with?
[01:02] <raddy> dff: nope, just boot from the cd in single user mode
[01:02] <dff> how?
[01:03] <crolle17> does somebody know where to set the tabs for vim? i mean when i make a tab, vim makes whitespace instead of the tab.
[01:03] <raddy> wols : are you there??????
[01:03] <Hawker> i is lost and are about to install windows which i know i wont have problems with
[01:03] <crolle17> i think this is to set in vimrc.
[01:03] <Lorne_Kun|Laptop> is it an indication of hardware failure for a drive to suddenly disappear out of the drive list? or is it a limitation of the NTFS support in fiesty??
[01:03] <pedro78> la
[01:03] <crolle17> but how does the command has to look like?
[01:04] <raddy> dff: ok, boot from the ubuntu cd, not in any single user mode
[01:05] <miramana> mads-, stock zip 2.32
[01:05] <crolle17> nobody know vim?
[01:05] <raddy> dff: fire up a terminal and execute fsck against your / filesystem
[01:05] <J-_> what is the xubuntu base installation called? There's kde-core I know that. But I want to install a minimal xubuntu installation.
[01:06] <raddy> crolle17: just use nano, it is far more better than vim IMHO
[01:06] <mads-> miramana : It tells me this : http://85.81.113.104/~mads/log.txt
[01:06] <Ind[y] > I have yanked some files with vim. How do I paste them in Gedit?

[01:07] <syed1994> raddy: wireless or wired
[01:07] <Ind[y] > I have yanked some files with vim. How do I paste them in Gedit? No with ctrl-v, because vim copies them to the secondary clipboard.
[01:07] <raddy> syed1994: wired
[01:08] <raddy> syed1994: it is Realtek RTL8168/8111 Family PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet

[01:16] <magnetron> Eoghan: some applications (like the network manager) can put their passwords in the keyring. that way, you only have to unlock the keyring to be able to use all your passwords (without re-entering them)
[01:16] <syed1994> raddy: what version of ubuntu are you using
[01:16] <wehttamb> but that will just copy the photo onto my ipod

[01:16] <wehttamb> i want it to be in the photo database on the ipod so i can veiw the pictures on it
[01:16] <wols> raddy: I told you what to use
[01:16] <wols> exploreffs
[01:16] <Hawker> i fixed my problem
[01:16] <Hawker> woo
[01:17] <domas> mmm, is there a command that converts 'desktop' into 'server'?
[01:17] <domas> (as in, removes all desktop cruft)? :)
[01:17] <CyberMad> any opinion of my case?
[01:17] <raddy> wols: ok, i'll tell you now, be online
[01:18] <predaeus> domas, you probably would need to remove all packages installed by ubuntu-desktop to achieve that. I think the server installation has a different kernel too.
[01:18] <magnetron> http://showmedo.com/videos/Linux
[01:18] <domas> predaeus: exactly kernel is why I had to install desktop
[01:18] <syed1994> raddy: go to System > Administartion > Network see if eth0 is disabled. (maybe yes)
[01:18] <domas> predaeus: -server kernel crashes horribly in parallels
[01:19] <domas> predaeus: probably could have replaced kernel manually, but.. ;-)
[01:19] <CyberMad> does internet printing protocol still need driver compability of the printer?
[01:20] <c_lisp> is there a program for ubuntu so I can run kde programs to?
[01:20] <cyphase> does anyone know where i can get a screenshot of one of the preinstalled dell machines?
[01:20] <magnetron> c_lisp: ubuntu can run kde programs. just install them
[01:20] <gordonjcp> cyphase: it's just plain vanilla Ubuntu
[01:20] <cyphase> i hear they've rearranged the panel
[01:21] <gordonjcp> cyphase: nope
[01:21] <gordonjcp> cyphase: there's no customisation at all
[01:21] <gordonjcp> bit odd I thought
[01:21] <cyphase> gordonjcp: because of this: http://allaboutubuntu.wordpress.com/2007/06/22/running-ubuntu-5-first-impressions/
[01:21] <gordonjcp> but there you go
[01:21] <cyphase> "A simple Applications Icon in the bottom-left of the window.."
[01:22] <cyphase> "Theres the open source Web browser, right on your tool bar at the bottom the the screen."
[01:22] <predaeus> domas, look at the dependencies of package ubuntu-desktop for a starter. maybe you can get them as simple text to pass to apt-get to uninstall.
[01:22] <gordonjcp> cyphase: I suspect a typo
[01:22] <cyphase> i suppose
[01:24] <domas> predaeus: yeah, sounds reasonable.
[01:24] <domas> predaeus: now I used my old school method.
[01:24] <spirit_> know somebody a good gnome calender ?
[01:24] <domas> predaeus: dplg -l, apt-get remove package1 package2 package3 :)
[01:25] <magnetron> spirit_: evolution
[01:25] <raddy> wols : check this out http://pastebin.ca/591740
[01:25] <domas> predaeus: after hitting few big packages with lots of dependancies it becomes much easier :)
[01:25] <raddy> wols : the interfaces file
[01:25] <spirit_> thx magnetron
[01:28] <raddy> wols : also i can now access ubuntu fs files from Vista !!
[01:28] <khermans_> how can i force my /dev/sg0 device (ipod mount) to be a block device and not a character device!??
[01:31] <phpcurious> msg NickServ IDENTIFY secret
[01:31] <wols> raddy: and with that file you cannot access your router?
[01:31] <wols> raddy: 192.168.1.1 doesn't work? that IS the router's IP?
[01:31] <Azul> i just wanna thank everyone who participated in the creation of such beautiful code.. you rock
[01:31] <raddy> wols: yup, that is router's ip
[01:32] <Tomcat_> Azul: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/72212
[01:32] <raddy> wols: i used 192.168.1.10 as my ip
[01:32] <wols> raddy: then it can onbly be a cable
[01:32] <blubbi> hi all
[01:32] <Azul> Tomcat_: thanks.. i'll post one there
[01:33] <blubbi> I installed kubuntu latest in VirtualBox
[01:33] <blubbi> After the reboot I cant't login to kdm
[01:33] <Azul> don't know why it's labeled a bug though
[01:33] <blubbi> after hitting ENTER I see the loginscreen agin?
[01:33] <raddy> wols: the problem is when ethernet card is enabled, a green light would show in my router, that is not even showing in ubuntu

[01:40] <logixoul> Hi. Is there a way to exchange the channels for the left and the right speaker, systemwide? I use KDE.
[01:41] <grind42a> Q: Any ideas why the latest Ubuntu Server Edition cannot mount my USB Harddrive? I installed Ubuntu Server Edition to a USB harddrive and now I need to edit the init files to include USB support, so I start the install CD in rescue mode and after all the autodetection steps, when it is ready to enter rescue mode and pick the root partition, it fails, "cannot enter rescue mode" with a red screen. So I choose "Go Back" and in the menu I go to "Execute a Shell"
[01:42] <grind42a> If I connect an internal harddrive it succeeds in going into rescue mode, it can see THAT harddrive and pick that as the root, but I do not want that.
[01:42] <grind42a> Fdisk sees the external drive perfectly, I installed to the external drive previously, and something is amiss.
[01:42] <predaeus> logixoul, if you can not find a solution for that in KDE try searching for information on alsa, should be possible but needs a config file edit
[01:43] <logixoul> predaeus: thanks.
[01:44] <nothingssomethin> hellow  i have a questions about a nvidia driver
[01:45] <grind42a> I must suggest that in the future Ubuntu has support for installing to USB harddrives by installing GRUB WITH USB support by default when it detects you installing to a usb mass storage device. As it is now you must enter rescue mode, mount the drive, edit the init files to include 4 usb drivers and tell it to wait about 10 seconds in order to let it find the usb drive, and then rebuild the init file with the new settings.
[01:45] <cotyrothery> Can someone tell me if a voodoo gfx card is better than an i810 gfx card
[01:45] <surviver> oke this is my problem: i see my network both pc , but i cant get on the other one i get this message : the folder contents could not be displayed (its a windows pc the other)
[01:46] <grind42a> I picked the worst time of day to report this
[01:46] <jrib> grind42a: no one will really hear it here, best to write a spec for it on launchpad
[01:46] <grind42a> Where is that?
[01:46] <jrib> grind42a: launchpad.net
[01:46] <grind42a> Thanks

[01:49] <s-mc> Q: when i change an IP in x, should it automaticaly restart the network or should i have to open a terminal and restart at cmd line ?
[01:49] <nothingssomethin> my nvidia driver is not working right with my laptop lcd screen
[01:49] <surviver> swappy, after that u have to get windows xp cd there u need to type fixmbr in repair console
[01:50] <CyberMad> why on Printers, even my printer not attached to the CPU, it always said Ready??

[01:50] <surviver> oke this is my problem: i see on my network both pc , but i cant get on the other one, i get this message : the folder contents could not be displayed (its a windows pc the other)
[01:50] <Bemt> I'm trying to compile PDF-edit, but when I run configure it cannot find the Boost .hpp files. I'm not sure that I have installed the boost libraries correctly. Any ideas how configure should find the boost headers?
[01:50] <Swappy> surviver..u mean while Boot Up
[01:50] <nothingssomethin> geforce go 440 but the problem is that i used easy ubuntu to install the driver and it isn't seeing the correct hardware
[01:51] <ashwin18> hey, ubuntu is not allowing me to set a desktop resolution above 640x480, whereas my display card and monitor can support upto 1280x1024. can anyone help me?
[01:51] <mezziah> Bemt: 'apt-cache search boost | grep dev'
[01:51] <surviver> swappy i just boot on windows there i delelete those partitions (with partition magic) then i reboot he gives error 17 or stuff i put in cd boot from cd (xp) the go to repair and there i type fixmbr

[01:52] <surviver> oke this is my problem: i see on my network both pc , but i cant get on the other one, i get this message : the folder contents could not be displayed (its a windows pc the other)
[01:54] <Bemt> Thank you mezziah, I will see if I can figure out what this all means... really I have no idea what I'm doing
[01:55] <mezziah> Bemt: as i have noticed, you need the libboost and for compiling you always need the '-dev' packages. do you know how to use 'apt-get' for installing packages?
[01:55] <Fome> I'm having a problem with my mouse in Ubuntu. Regularly it starts moving in a jerky fashion, cannot detect clicks etc. This does not happen during spikes in either CPU nor memory usage. I have this problem both in Gnome and KDE. Anyone have any idea how to fix this?
[01:55] <ashwin18> hey, ubuntu is not allowing me to set a desktop resolution above 640x480, whereas my display card and monitor can support upto 1280x1024. can anyone help me?
[01:55] <Zappatta> Flannel, got everything to work, finally. Thanks a lot for your help mate.
[01:56] <Taivo> hi guys, any information where I could find suggestions for Ubuntu-friendly hardware configurations?
[01:56] <Jakobsen> Argh.. Am I the only one having problems with Ubuntu 7.04 on IBM Thinkpad Z61m?
[01:56] <Taivo> I'm about to build a small samba server, based on RAID-1 and the usual desktop PC architecture
[01:56] <mike> Taivo: what hardware?
[01:56] <ashwin18> guys, some help would be really appreciated
[01:57] <Taivo> mike: I was asking you guys :)
[01:57] <south01_> hi
[01:57] <south01_> i have a big problem :)
[01:57] <Taivo> what's good with Ubuntu, supported mainboards, chipsets, etc.
[01:57] <DarkMageZ> ashwin18, try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" you'll get to add higher resolutions then
[01:57] <Taivo> RAID controller will probably be some 3ware
[01:57] <mike> Taivo: Run live cd
[01:57] <Ausicaemia> Anybody managed to get Tuxguitar working on Ubuntu?
[01:58] <ashwin18> DarkMageZ, should i type that in the terminal window?
[01:58] <Taivo> mike: the thing is, I don't have the hardware bought yet
[01:58] <DarkMageZ> ashwin18, yes
[01:58] <Taivo> mike: gotta, figure out first, what's good and reliable with Ubuntu
[01:58] <ashwin18> DarkMageZ, ok. i will boot into ubuntu and try that
[01:58] <mike> Taivo: Nvidia is well supported
[01:59] <Ausicaemia> Anybody?
[01:59] <Taivo> mike: thanks, nvidia should be good under Linux, although things such as graphics and sound cards are not that important as it will be a server anyway
[01:59] <Ausicaemia> Anybody even managed to get midi working?
[01:59] <Bemt> mezziah, no I have not used apt-get, I just unpacked the boost_1_34_0 and hoped that I could follow the instructions there. As I said I have no idea what I'm doing, hehe
[01:59] <mike> ok I see
[01:59] <Taivo> mike: any idea if Ubuntu likes Intel platform more than AMD + nVidia chipset?
[01:59] <DarkMageZ> !midi | Ausicaemia
[01:59] <ubotu> Ausicaemia: Trouble playing MIDI files? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MidiSoftwareSynthesisHowTo
[01:59] <IdleOne> Ausicaemia, check out #ubuntustudio they should be able to help you more
[02:00] <Ausicaemia> I just want Tuxguitar to play my tabs.
[02:00] <mezziah> Bemt: oh ok, i see. you could try 'sudo apt-get install libboost-dev' and then check if compiling continues.
[02:00] <Ausicaemia> I think it uses the java soundbank thing
[02:00] <mike> Taivo: i have found support for both amd amd pentium excellent
[02:00] <Ausicaemia> But it never seems to be able to play anything, even though I have the soundbank installed.
[02:00] <Ausicaemia> and pointed to it
[02:00] <mike> Taivo: Pentium especially
[02:01] <raddy> Hello Everybody & wols : the error i am getting in going online via my integrated realtek wired ethernet card is "kernel: [  205.476670]  r8169: eth0: link down
[02:01] <raddy> kernel: [  205.476704]  ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready"
[02:01] <DarkMageZ> Ausicaemia, most of us here haven't ever used tuxguitar. please try #ubuntustudio or the tuxguitar help methods.
[02:01] <raddy> can anybody help me in that
[02:01] <Taivo> mike: so, some Core 2 Duo processor with Intel mainboard should work fine?
[02:01] <Ausicaemia> Yeah, I just thought I would ask.
[02:01] <raddy> Link is not detecting
[02:01] <Ausicaemia> Because I'm not asking specifically about it, but about Java soundbank stuff.
[02:01] <Ausicaemia> Whether there could be something preventing me from, bah nevermind.
[02:01] <Ausicaemia> Thanks anyway.
[02:02] <mike> Taivo: I like Gigabyte and Asus mainboards
[02:02] <tyler2435> hmm
[02:02] <IdleOne> !sound > Ausicaemia
[02:02] <tyler2435> what would i use to simply return a filesize>?
[02:02] <tyler2435> like
[02:02] <tyler2435> cmd file.ext
[02:02] <Taivo> mike: yeah they are good too, but thanks man, I think that settles it

[02:11] <wols> !boot
[02:11] <ubotu> Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto
[02:12] <mmcji> ubotu: cool thanks
[02:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cool thanks - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:12] <wols> mmcji: why xampp? ubuntu has apache
[02:12] <azi`> i'm really clueless on why i have to run manually /etc/init.d/915resolution each boot time and restart X
[02:12] <Edulix2> wols: hi
[02:12] <Fedman> Hmm I just installed feisty and after a day or something I lost all my file associations
[02:12] <wols> mmcji: don't run stuff from outside ubuntu if you don't need it
[02:12] <Edulix2> wols: this is the real laptop ;)
[02:12] <Edulix2> pasting in pastebin
[02:12] <wols> azi`: cause you haven't set it to automatically start
[02:13] <fuzzy_logic> azi': you don't have to.. you can also set the service to start automatically
[02:13] <Bemt> mezziah: it just said that it needed boost c++ libraries, I thought if I got the regular boost with all that it is, it would contain all the required boost libraries, Well thanks for the help I guess I have to find some text about installing libraries in a way that one knows what is going on...
[02:13] <azi`> wols: i think i did it but just to be sure.. how do i do that?
[02:13] <fuzzy_logic> lol.. wols
[02:13] <Fedman> I mean no matter if I try ot open a .doc or .avi file it says: Cannot open /media/store/downloads/Black_Mesa_v3_by_valkyre.zip: No application suitable for automatic installation is available for handling this kind of file.
[02:13] <azi`> fuzzy_logic: that's what i did actually
[02:13] <raddy> wols: didn't you find any clues for my problem??
[02:13] <Fedman> Any idea what happend?
[02:13] <azi`> fuzzy_logic: i've put i issued the rc command to add it in the default init
[02:13] <wols> azi`: fi you had you din't have to do it manually
[02:13] <Edulix2> wols: http://pastebin.com/937445
[02:14] <wols> Edulix2: pastebin.com is bad
[02:14] <Edulix2> wols: you want me to paste in other placE? :P
[02:14] <Edulix2> wols: I know it's slow, there also rafb.net/paste etc
[02:14] <azi`> wols: i created a script in /etc/init.d called "foo" that starts 915resolution update-rc foo defaults
[02:14] <fuzzy_logic> azi': System > Preferences > Sessions and then just add a new one, name doesn't matter and the command is just sudo /etc/init.d/915resolution
[02:14] <rixon> How can I see what mother board I've got?
[02:15] <forest> Program to convert video files from one format to another in Ubuntu? I searched synaptic, turned up nothing. Thanks
[02:15] <fuzzy_logic> azi': in ubuntu, you don't have to do that much trouble to manage something.. everything is simple :)
[02:15] <Edulix2> wols: so what wifi card I have? :P
[02:15] <jrib> forest: ffmpeg or mencoder
[02:15] <defrysk> forest, ffmpeg
[02:15] <wols> Edulix2: it's not PCI device. what driver do you use in windows?
[02:15] <Edulix2> wols: uhm
[02:15] <Edulix2> let me check
[02:15] <mmcji> wols: I have installed gentoo, and FreeBSD servers for years....im just plain tired to compiling from scratch, wasting time and such.  xampp works just fine, and when you tighten up the security on it, there is nothing wrong with it.  The default xampp install is wide open, so that should never be facing a wan connection, but once tightened down, there are really no problems....Besides, Im not running a community site, just a family
[02:15] <mmcji> site, and I have a Cisco IOS FW at my edge as well
[02:15] <wols> rixon: possibly with dmidecode
[02:16] <wols> mmcji: ubuntu already comes with apache
[02:16] <steve_> hi I have a weird problem, when the power cable of my laptop IS plugged IN, the gnome controls/terminal goes sluggish (letters appear with a very small delay), minimization of programs occur with delays, ... but when i UNPLUG the cable everything is fast again (notice the problem i only with the GUI, not with say the performance of firefox)
[02:16] <steve_> any ideas?
[02:16] <wols> mmcji: and there is a LOT wrong cause a) no automatic security updates b) you cicumvent the packaging system
[02:16] <guner> hello anyone installed oracle 10g on feisty
[02:17] <forest> jrib, defrysk -- thanks. Those will do, but are there any GUI frontends?
[02:17] <Edulix2> wols: ok I don't know it by the name of the driver files, so I will reboot and see
[02:17] <Edulix2> and then I will come back ;)
[02:17] <sb10> hi, im trying to do a "rsh myhost" works, though "rsh myhost date" gives connection refused - any idea ?
[02:18] <rixon> wols: Base board information?
[02:18] <mmcji> wols: well you be happy with apache then.  xampp works just fine for me.  no one has hijacked my site, defamed it, infiltrated my server etc...
[02:18] <s-mc> apache
[02:18] <s-mc> xchan
[02:19] <mmcji> wols: BUT your point is well taken, and i appreciate your concern
[02:19] <mmcji> I stick to apt-get from the main repo for everyithing else :-)

[02:22] <morrolan> Hi, I've recently upgraded to Feisty, and decided to give the new network-manager-gnome a try, as on edgy it didn't like my wireless card (wireless  works fine, just not with the new manager) - it still doesn't work, but now I can't get ANY wireless at all?
[02:24] <daquino> why is adept_installer so slow
[02:25] <s-mc> Q: i would like to install apache to my new linux box (desktop edition), in synaptic there are multiple version (i assume apache2 is latest) also lots of other downlaods i.e. apache2.2-common, what do i need to download to get it to work ?
[02:25] <daquino> get both
[02:25] <Sh3r1ff> s-mc: apt-get install apache2 should do it
[02:26] <jrib> s-mc: apache2 will grab the other stuff you need automatically
[02:26] <s-mc> thanks
[02:26] <Ind[y] > When using Nautilus with the davs protocol, and I copy a file, the "copying..." message box does not disappear after the end of the copy. The copy is done correctly, but after a 5 minutes of freezing, the "copying..." message box says there was an error. Should I report this to launchpad?
[02:27] <ekimus> hello, need to switch my dns server on a production machine. i'm using pdns-server and pdns-backend-ldap can someone confirm that those do work in 6.10? (had a lot of problems with ubuntu in the past few days)
[02:27] <b08y> Ind[y] , are you sure that all file are correctly moved or copied?
[02:28] <b08y> file+s
[02:28] <ekimus> Ind[y] : is that your server you're copying to?
[02:29] <WaxyFresh> i extracted a amd64 alternative install from an iso to a usb drive and then started my computer,all i get is os not found
[02:29] <surviver> anyone can help me i got my lan with 2 pc's : 1 windows and 1 linux where i am on now , but when i try to access the other one i get this message: the folder contents could not be displayed
[02:30] <scifi> anyone know a good avatar site?
[02:30] <WaxyFresh> is there something im misssing?^^
[02:30] <ekimus> WaxyFresh: probably a boot record
[02:30] <surviver> waxyfresh, maybe need to set boot from usb device
[02:30] <WaxyFresh> ekimus: how would i add a boot record?
[02:31] <WaxyFresh> ekimus: i basicly want teh usb drive to work lke a cd drive causeing the computer to boot into the install cd i extracted on it
[02:31] <computa_Mike> Hi - trying to get my head around developing Device Drivers in Linux (ubuntu 6.06) - I'm using the tutorials on the Linux Device Drivers book from Oreily.  I have downloaded the kernel source, and I have installed the development tools - however I can't even make the samples provided by Oreilly.  Has anyone done driver development on Ubuntu?
[02:31] <surviver> waxyfresh, nrmly u get that when u install ubuntu
[02:31] <WaxyFresh> surviver: no it boots fine
[02:32] <WaxyFresh> surviver: no other way
[02:32] <ekimus> WaxyFresh: why don't you just install ubuntu on the usb drive?
[02:32] <WaxyFresh> ?
[02:32] <surviver> waxyfresh, the bootrecord nrmly sets up in last stap off install ^o)
[02:32] <ekimus> WaxyFresh: it does boot fine? so then forget that boot record problem
[02:32] <WaxyFresh> because my only working computer is 32 bit the one i need to install to is 64 bit,wold that still work?
[02:32] <Fome> How do I install other wm's in Gnome on Ubuntu? (I still want to use Gnome, but want to use another wm than Metacity)
[02:33] <X11R6> I need help: i had an old version of ubuntu (like 5). I looked up the package servers for a newer version (like 7 something) and i did dist-upgrade. I totally broke the system, and apt-get -f install terminates saying "trying to overwrite /usr/X11R6/bin' which is also in package rdesktop
[02:33] <WaxyFresh> ekimus: no that was in reference to an earlier Q
[02:33] <the_fury> where would the conf file be that holds the language settings for gnome?
[02:33] <surviver> waxyfresh, u cant install a 64 bit os on a 32 bit
[02:33] <Puppy_> Is there a program that would "transform" a .package into a .deb? This would make it a lot more easy for Ubuntu users to download and install programs that are not in synaptic.
[02:33] <leagris> Ind[y] , logging DAV transaction server side could help diagnose the problem. I have no problems withs nautilus accessing my Apache davs repos.
[02:33] <ekimus> WaxyFresh: do you need 64bit? (messy setup with flash and a whole bunch of other drivers) if you don't have a specific reason to use 64bit stay 32bit
[02:34] <slickw0rm> hey people
[02:34] <surviver> anyone can help me i got my lan with 2 pc's : 1 windows and 1 linux where i am on now , but when i try to access the other one i get this message: the folder contents could not be displayed
[02:34] <slickw0rm> has anyone had any problems while shutting down ubuntu
[02:34] <slickw0rm> ?
[02:34] <surviver> nope
[02:34] <WaxyFresh> ekimus: isnt 64 bit faster though?
[02:34] <ekimus> WaxyFresh: no
[02:34] <surviver> waxyfresh, dont go 64b i got it and i cant see flash , macromedia and stuff
[02:34] <WaxyFresh> ekimus: what would the benefits be?
[02:35] <WeeJeWel> How can i change launcher icons on the panel?
[02:35] <WeeJeWel> change the size**
[02:35] <ekimus> WaxyFresh: 64bit just enables you to get past certain limitations (ram size, etc) but I'm pretty sure you won't hit these as a normal PC user
[02:35] <slickw0rm> when i shutdown my notebook running ubuntu...my harddisk always makes a loud scratching sound...but doents happen in windows tho...
[02:35] <slickw0rm> anyone knows what the problem is?
[02:35] <Puppy_> so no one know of anything?
[02:35] <the_fury> does anybody know where the config file is for gnome that determines which language gnome is using?
[02:36] <ekimus> WaxyFresh: 64bit is an advantage when doing vast amounts of number crunching or similiar stuff in all other cases (desktop systems) it just causes problems cause of missing drivers
[02:36] <surviver> anyone can help me i got my lan with 2 pc's : 1 windows and 1 linux where i am on now , but when i try to access the other one i get this message: the folder contents could not be displayed
[02:36] <X11R6> I need help: i getbroke the system, and apt-get -f install terminates saying "trying to overwrite /usr/X11R6/bin' which is also in package rdesktop
[02:36] <X11R6> I need help: apt-get -f install terminates saying "trying to overwrite /usr/X11R6/bin' which is also in package rdesktop"
[02:36] <WaxyFresh> ekimus: so the 1400$ laptop my friend got was a silly investment?
[02:38] <slickw0rm> hey anyone here heard of hack in the box?
[02:38] <ekimus> WaxyFresh: in my opinion 64bit is useless for a home user (or better stated, the people that sell you 64bit aren't willing to support 64bit - since all the 32bit software still works on that hardware they still sell 32bit software to run on 64bit hardware)
[02:38] <slickw0rm> true ekimus
[02:38] <slickw0rm> very true
[02:38] <WaxyFresh> ekimus: thanks
[02:38] <WaxyFresh> for the info*
[02:39] <ekimus> WaxyFresh: besides that are all the components 64bit? i know that there are a couple of boxes out there that have the ultra lates super cool 64bit processors - which is running in 32bit mode because all the other peripherals (chipset on the motherboard etc) are only 32bit capable
[02:39] <ryan__> I have a CD writer that fails to write with either nautilus or gnome-baker. Looks like a hardware problem to me, can anyone look at this gnomebaker output and give me an opinion or clue? http://pastebin.com/937454
[02:39] <ryan__> P.S. it's an external
[02:40] <slickw0rm> ok ryan
[02:40] <slickw0rm> i will have a look
[02:40] <clx> Do someone know how can I change the master password of gnome-keyring...
[02:41] <ekimus> WaxyFresh: so back on topic :) - simply try installing the 32bit cdrom on your usb drive (the real install procedure not live cd extracting) and try to get that working. it will run on every computer (which makes sense for a portable drive, think of the case where you are happily carring around your install and come to a 32bit box and you chose to install 64bit)
[02:41] <clx> I tried google but, seems  a missing feature, only possible in gnome 2.19
[02:41] <WaxyFresh> ekimus: i dont know amd turiom 64 X2 duel core  ati radeon Xpres 1150 2 gigs memory (would that card run beryl you think?)besides thAT I DONT KNOW ANYTING ABOUT THE HARDWARE
[02:41] <WaxyFresh> oopps sorry for caps
[02:42] <Pici> WaxyFresh: I'm running compiz fusion on a ati x1400 and it runs fine @ 1400x1050.
[02:42] <ekimus> WaxyFresh: np, but i can assure you that the ubuntu 32bit cdrom will run and install on 64bit hardware (given the hardware is supported but you'd have to have some real exotics to find unsupported hardware imho)
[02:43] <cafuego> WaxyFresh: The pronly problem might be the 64bit ATI drivers; they're not very good quality.
[02:44] <WaxyFresh> im setting up 32 bit now
[02:44] <X11R6> how do i install version 7.04 over an existing 5.10 without destroying all my data?
[02:44] <ryan__> thanks slickw0rm
[02:44] <ekimus> cafuego: does flash run on 64bit (out of the box)
[02:44] <cafuego> ekimus: no.
[02:44] <blubbi> Hi, how do I install a Creative AWE54 ISA card?
[02:44] <cafuego> ekimus: But with nspluginwrapper it works fine
[02:44] <blubbi> I just installed the latest KUBUNTU
[02:45] <WaxyFresh> blubbi: #kubuntu
[02:45] <ekimus> cafuego: so that's graphics, flash, a bunch of wifi cards (to my knowledge and what i see in different forums)
[02:45] <slickw0rm> ur welcome
[02:45] <cafuego> wow, an awe64. do theys till make cases big enough to fit those?
[02:45] <slickw0rm> gimme a short while to read it
[02:45] <computa_Mike> anyone here been able to compile drivers in Ubunut?
[02:45] <cafuego> ekimus: I run my desktop box as 64bit systm and don't have issues
[02:45] <computa_Mike> or even ubuntu?
[02:46] <cafuego> computa_Mike: Sure, you just need the linux-headers-$(uname -r) package
[02:47] <computa_Mike> ok - i'll try it
[02:47] <aroo> d
[02:47] <ekimus> cafuego: grats, but if you follow the discussions on the web 64bit causes trouble for desktops just about everywhere (regardless of OS)
[02:48] <computa_Mike> right - that would seem to something I have neglected to install... so far I have been developing drivers in Linux for about.... 5 hours!
[02:48] <ekimus> cafuego: i'm not absolutely denying 64bit just saying that there are some poor people out there that think that 64bit will make everything faster better and more sexy while software sellers aren't really supporting it
[02:50] <j^> gpg --gen-key does not work here with
[02:50] <j^> Not enough random bytes available.  Please do some other work to give
[02:50] <j^> the OS a chance to collect more entropy!
[02:50] <graveson1> i am not sure what happened but it seems like my grub has been changed. i had an option to dual boot into windows and now that is missing ? how can i fix this ?
[02:50] <j^> anyone found a workaround?
[02:50] <X11R6> question: how do i install version 7.04 over an existing 5.10 without destroying all my data?

[02:52] <jimcooncat> Is there a way to fix the Help feature in Evolution?
[02:52] <jimcooncat> !help evolution
[02:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about help evolution - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:52] <ekimus> j^: the workaround is to do what the message says (move mouse, type stuff in a textfile etc)
[02:52] <qos> hey guys ... my dvd recorder SOMETIMES gets only recognized to be a 6x recorder. when i restart my computer it gets recognized correctly. but restarting sucks, so... is there a way to to this by hand?
[02:52] <graveson1> !help grub
[02:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about help grub - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:53] <graveson1> !grub
[02:53] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[02:54] <j^> ekimus: this is on a server without keyboard or mouse
[02:54] <Ind[y] > So, should I report that bug I mentioned before (with nautilus, file copying and davs) to launchpad?
[02:55] <j^> ekimus: and the server has quite some network traffic, disk activity etc, still nothing for more than 15 minutes
[02:55] <ekimus> j^: ok than that is strange :)
[02:55] <j^> just to make sure i tried it on 2 other ubuntu boxes, same thing
[02:55] <ekimus> j^: the fastest workaround i can think of would be go genereate the keys on another box
[02:56] <ekimus> yup i'm having problems with a lot of packages to, strangely enough all of those work in debian....
[02:56] <j^> ekimus: quite broken i would say
[02:56] <graveson1> !dualboot

[02:57] <ekimus> j^: ubuntu is broken in some places - some must at some time explain to me why libnss-ldap and libpam-ldap are 1) unsupported and 2) broken (that makes ubuntu useless in an ldap based centralized login env)
[02:58] <phretor> hi there
[02:58] <phretor> what if I need libdw-dev/libelf-dev 0.127 ? (0.123 is the current version)
[02:58] <qos> hey guys ... my dvd recorder SOMETIMES gets only recognized to be a 6x recorder. when i restart my computer it gets recognized correctly. but restarting sucks, so... is there a way to to this by hand?

[02:59] <Duesentrieb> hi all. any idea how i can configure the java browser plugin? on windows&mac, there's a java configuration item in the system setup... where would i find that in ubuntu?
[02:59] <xukun> hi all, I,m trying to restore directory from Trash to /media/sda1 but I get "Access is denied to /media/sda1" any idea how to solve this?
[02:59] <Duesentrieb> i need a way to tell java to allow more memory to be used by the plugin...
[03:00] <Duesentrieb> xukun: change the permissions in the mount options. or do it as root.
[03:00] <cafuego> ekimus: pam-ldap and libnss-ldap are working fine for me
[03:00] <BloodyTux> hey, so is there a program i can just shove a src into and it'll make a deb for me? i forgot the website about dpkg and all tha
[03:01] <cafuego> ekimus: Only thing to keep in mind is that you make sure you tell libnss-ldap to *fail* at bootup when udev tries to retrieve group names before networking is up.
[03:01] <xukun> Duesentrieb, yes that is what I was thinking, but I don not know how to change the permissions in the mount option
[03:01] <instabin> can any one help with the open vpn client
[03:02] <Duesentrieb> xukun: man fstab, man mount
[03:02] <instabin> i cant get the open vpn client to connect
[03:02] <BotaniCar> instabin: do you get any errors back ?
[03:02] <instabin> no
[03:03] <neopsyche> if i already have windows installed (ntfs) on my entire hdisk is there a way to repartition to split my drive up to install ubuntu?
[03:03] <instabin> BotaniCar all i have is the gui and it wont let me pick the connection
[03:03] <BotaniCar> instabin: use a connection client that generates reports
[03:03] <s-mc> im trying to get me moneys worth out of u lot (puzzles of my own comment there). Q: how do i start a ssh server/service on ubuntu ?
[03:03] <xukun> Duesentrieb, I have done that already but did not get what I was looking for
[03:03] <strabes> can anyone confirm that the zen microphoto works out of the box with amarok in feisty?
[03:03] <instabin> BotaniCar is the addon for gnome netowrk monitor
[03:03] <BotaniCar> instabin: you might also try to connect by hand from terminal window, that is bound to give some feedback
[03:04] <Pici> s-mc: you need to install the ssh package first.
[03:04] <BotaniCar> instabin: try to connect with abovementioned method first , so you know setup and keys are ok
[03:04] <ekimus> cafuego: yes but still it is unsupported (plus FC, SuSE and debian managed to make it work out of the box)
[03:04] <Pici> s-mc: The package name is just ssh.
[03:04] <Duesentrieb> xukun: look at the umask option
[03:04] <s-mc> Pici: i have done that
[03:04] <BotaniCar> instabin: then, sure of setup working , you can blame gnome applet
[03:04] <instabin> BotaniCar: I have allready use the files to connect with windows
[03:05] <shakus> how do i remove the networking icon from the dock?
[03:05] <Pici> s-mc: It should start automatically, but you can use `sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start` to manually start it.
[03:05] <BotaniCar> instabin: i am sorry but i cant help with gnome applet problems, i dont use them :(
[03:05] <s-mc> Pici: thanks
[03:05] <instabin> BotaniCar: Well thanks any way

[03:06] <s-mc> Pici: says command not found. but i can see ssh folders etc so it must be on here.

[03:16] <ubotu> Some_Person: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[03:16] <bronze> When I play x-moto, the game periodically (every 10 minutes or so) de-selects itself and enters windowed mode. This is very annoying because I lose control over the biker!
[03:16] <silver_> does anybody knows where can i find driver which support 3d on my video card ? 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Trident Microsystems CyberBlade XPAi1 (rev 82)
[03:16] <Some_Person> Will it screw up my system?
[03:16] <bronze> Some_Person, this is basically a must for any linux user. And no, it won't screw anything up.
[03:17] <scorp123> Hi all ...
[03:17] <silver_> hi
[03:17] <SAM_theman> !maya
[03:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about maya - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:17] <Some_Person> Great! Because I used NTFS 3G on Breezy, and it worked, but suddenly my NTFS partition disappeared!
[03:18] <bronze> Some_Person, what do you mean? Disappeared from your file browser or disappeared for real (deleted).
[03:18] <Some_Person> From my system/
[03:18] <scorp123> SAM_theman: www.autodesk.com
[03:18] <SAM_theman> I know
[03:18] <scorp123> SAM_theman: they own "Maya" now

[03:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about autodesk - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:19] <CheshireViking> Some_Person, I thought it was still classed as in development, but looking at the ntfs-3g website, they say its a stable release since february 2007
[03:19] <Some_Person> This was in June 2006
[03:20] <scorp123> CheshireViking: I fail to see what this has to do with the issue at hand or how this would get his data back?
[03:20] <scorp123> Some_Person: do you know on what partition (e.g. /dev/sdb1 ... etc.) your NTFS filesystem was?
[03:21] <ham1979> Hello
[03:21] <hoelk> !ntfs3g
[03:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfs3g - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:21] <Some_Person> it was /dev/hda1
[03:21] <soundray> Some_Person: there is no way of using a computer without risking data loss, so always have a backup.
[03:21] <scorp123> !ntfs
[03:21] <CheshireViking> scorp123, the original question was whether r/w access for ntfs was available and whether it would mess up the system
[03:21] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[03:21] <s-mc> Q: in firestarter i add a rule to allow all connections from 192.168.100.0 yet it stop a ssh conenction, if i goto the event veiwer and allow conenctions from client it adds a rule allowing 192.168.100.250, it now allows ssh connections from my pc, why did my network rule not work ?
[03:21] <ham1979> I have a group called virtual with 2 users one is the vitual user for postfix setup but i want to give same permission for mailuser so i can get into the folder and backup the mail!
[03:21] <bronze> !ntfs-3g | Some_Person
[03:21] <ubotu> Some_Person: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[03:21] <scorp123> CheshireViking: the "ntfs" module from the kernel *WILL* mess up your filesystem, yes.
[03:21] <Some_Person> I'll try it again now that it's stable
[03:22] <scorp123> Some_Person: does this command show anything: "sudo fdisk -l /dev/hda"
[03:22] <Some_Person> This was last year you know
[03:22] <Some_Person> The partition is long gone
[03:23] <bronze> When I tried to install it with synaptic it says "Package could not be verified, bla bla bla not safe".
[03:23] <bronze> Wonder what that means...
[03:23] <WaxyFresh> i just did an 5.10 install (its the most up to date i have)and when i go to start it x.org fails,what should i do?
[03:23] <scorp123> You said it "suddenly disappeared" ... ?  OK, now I'm confused. :)
[03:23] <bronze> It suddenly disappeared a year ago :)
[03:24] <scorp123> bronze: some packages are signed with GPG keys ... so this one you got there isn't. Can happen. No big deal usually. Just say "Yes, install anyway".
[03:24] <azo> so is there ANYONE that has ever used 915resolution?
[03:24] <scorp123> yes
[03:24] <bronze> scorp123, roger that.

[03:42] <bronze> I have kinda the same problem. No way whatsoever to get my refresh rate to 72 or 75hz. I can only choose between 50, 54 and 55hz, but when I check it with my screen, it says 85hz.

[03:43] <durab> the driver seems to be loaded and there are no problems as far as I know, but wpa_supplicant is segfaulting

[04:16] <durab> not the protocol, the naming
[04:16] <kitche> durab: eth1 can be wireless that is what my broadocm uses if I use the native driver
[04:16] <liable> durab: how do you explain my intel wireless card that i am using now thats eth1?
[04:16] <durab> I sit corrected
[04:17] <jturek_> oi all
[04:17] <durab> thats how I explain it
[04:17] <durab> sorry to offend your geek pride
[04:17] <jturek_> Anybody know of a wizard or GUI to setup multiple monitor support on Feisty or Gutsy?
[04:17] <durab> little touchy, aren't we?
[04:17] <liable> durab: you didnt offend my geek pride, you just gave bad advice
[04:17] <nothingssomethin> how do i pause it is going all the way past before i can read it all
[04:17] <durab> of that I am guilty
[04:18] <miasma> what's the package name for apache fop in ubuntu?
[04:18] <durab> perhaps now we have a conversation started you could look over my ndiswrapper output

[04:21] <fasemprebene> i have a little problem with ubuntu 7.04
[04:21] <ryan__> whew, thanks jrib
[04:22] <fasemprebene> someone can help me?
[04:22] <kitche> BenC: yes it is but not links being posted that don't have to deal with ubuntu problems
[04:22] <benmayim> variant, upon further reading of that website, he specifically states that he did not us option 2 - Install LAMP server, and I don't want to start over.
[04:22] <BenC> kitche: it's a forum for people with ubuntu problems, specific to Dell
[04:22] <rohan> fasemprebene: ask, don't ask to ask :)
[04:22] <fasemprebene> what?
[04:22] <miasma> is it possible that there is no fop package in ubuntu. if I look at http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/text/docbook-xsl, it says "Package not available"
[04:22] <fasemprebene> ah ok
[04:22] <magnetron> !ask | fasemprebene
[04:22] <magnetron> !enter | fasemprebene
[04:22] <ubotu> fasemprebene: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:22] <ubotu> fasemprebene: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[04:23] <kitche> BenC: I know what it is I m not blind
[04:23] <rohan> magnetron: oh, i did not know ubotu already had factoids for it
[04:23] <BenC> kitche: then maybe you need to reword your argument
[04:23] <kitche> Benc: it's still offtopic
[04:23] <fasemprebene> since this morning my broser "firefox" close alone while i explore the net and simetimes ubuntu disconect the session
[04:23] <fasemprebene> why?
[04:24] <kapistus> Could someone help me? I'm very new to this OS and i have trouble getting the correct resolution to match my 20" widescreen. All i get is 1024x768. I have Ati's radeon 9600xt.
[04:24] <BenC> kitche: so help with Ubuntu on Dell is offtopic for #ubuntu, I'll be sure to spread the word
[04:24] <nothingssomethin> ok from what it says about it i belive that that is my dell truemoble the cisco areonet is the one i can see blinking
[04:24] <BenC> kitche: so mentioning ubuntu forums is offtopic too?
[04:24] <rohan> !ati > kapistus
[04:24] <benmayim> I have mysql installed, How do I access it? do I have to install something like ISPconfig to access it? Why didn't the option 2 put a pkg on the system that would be able to access it, and if it did, how do I find it?
[04:24] <rohan> !ati | kapistus
[04:24] <ubotu> kapistus: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:24] <kapistus> Oh, thanks
[04:24] <nothingssomethin> the dell truemoble is off and also it says that wifi0 is off
[04:24] <kitche> benmayim: mysql is the command
[04:25] <pike_> benmayim: consider installing phpmyadmin too. you can access it in browser by pointing to localhost
[04:25] <Assassyn> hi
[04:25] <Assassyn> anyone installed VMware on ubuntu 7.04?
[04:25] <benmayim> kitche, from the command line terminal?
[04:25] <kitche> benmayim: there is some frontends to mysql if you wish
[04:25] <kitche> benmayim: yes
[04:25] <benmayim> I'm not a linux guru, I don't know command line very well.
[04:26] <rohan> Assassyn: you want vmware player or normal vmware ?
[04:26] <durab> when im using tightvnc I get just a desktop and a terminal, whats the name of the file browser to run?
[04:26] <kitche> benmayim: well grab a gui frontednt o mysql since mysql is a command line program
[04:26] <Assassyn> normal
[04:26] <magnetron> benmayim: mysql is a command line application, but there is some graphical frontends for it
[04:26] <Assassyn> to create virtual disks etc so i can install some OSes
[04:27] <yondie> Assassyn, to create vmdk u need qemu
[04:27] <dr_willis> of course mysql is the kind of program that whole books are written on. :)  so dont expect it to be point and click
[04:27] <rohan> Assassyn: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware
[04:27] <rohan> yondie: not really, he can use vmware too
[04:27] <Assassyn> so what should i install? qemu or vmware?
[04:27] <dr_willis> Assassyn,  ive installed vmware server to let me do all sorts of things.
[04:27] <benmayim> kitche, I did the command line command and got in, now I'll have to get out my mysql handbook and see what databases are there already and/or make my own.
[04:27] <nothingssomethin> ok how do i enable and disable cards
[04:27] <yondie> rohan i mean to create the vmware image
[04:27] <yondie> freely
[04:27] <yondie> available
[04:27] <yondie> use qemu-img
[04:27] <dr_willis> Assassyn,  qemu, vmware-server, virtualbox, do similer things.
[04:27] <rohan> Assassyn: just read :) https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware if you want vmware
[04:27] <Paddy_EIRE> hey there I am currently watching a video and the audio seems to be delayed a little is there any tricks or handy tools to sort this out
[04:28] <rohan> Amaranth: as yondie said, if you want absolute free, you can go for qemu
[04:28] <MrOtacon> hey guys - i just installed beryl, but wondered if there was anywhere i could download settings files from as i do not understand why it wont let me type in windows
[04:28] <Paddy_EIRE> its a local video not a stream
[04:28] <kitche> benmayim: by default there is just mostly permissions databases and such that mysql needs to run right
[04:28] <nothingssomethin> or make certian one default
[04:28] <yondie> i prefer kernel-xen but well dat`s just me
[04:28] <dr_willis> Paddy_EIRE,  most of the media players have some sort of audio-shifting feature  - but ive rarely seen the problem.
[04:28] <Assassyn> ok.. what`s best from your list dr_willis?
[04:28] <magnetron> Paddy_EIRE: VLC has a configurable sound delay
[04:28] <dr_willis> Assassyn,  i tend to USE vmware-server
[04:28] <dr_willis> Assassyn,  it deopends on your exact needs as to whats best.
[04:29] <Assassyn> to install windows XP on it
[04:29] <yondie> or how passionate are u on using non-propitery stuff
[04:29] <Paddy_EIRE> magnetron, vlc seems to be unable to play .divx very well
[04:29] <dr_willis> Assassyn,  i would say use vmware then.
[04:29] <magnetron> Paddy_EIRE: ok
[04:29] <Assassyn> o
[04:29] <Assassyn> k
[04:29] <Assassyn> thans
[04:29] <Paddy_EIRE> magnetron, big green band across the top
[04:29] <magnetron> Paddy_EIRE: ok
[04:30] <dr_willis> Paddy_EIRE,  cant say that ive ever seen that issue.
[04:30] <dr_willis> define 'big' :) 1/2 the screen? or a single line?
[04:31] <Paddy_EIRE> dr_willis, yeah the whole vid is basically unwatchable in vlc
[04:31] <MrOtacon> does anyone have a beryl settings file with decent settings?
[04:31] <kitche> Paddy_EIRE: soudns to me like a codec issue did you try the xvid codec?
[04:31] <dr_willis> Paddy_EIRE,  interesting. coyuld try a newer version of vlc.
[04:31] <dr_willis> I dident think vlc USED the codec stuff like other programs do.
[04:31] <tingle> when will there be a next release?
[04:32] <yondie> xine works all the time
[04:32] <rohan> tingle: october
[04:32] <rohan> !gutsy | tingle
[04:32] <ubotu> tingle: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10).

[04:32] <Paddy_EIRE> hmm, maybe so although I have found the sound shift feature in SMplayer :D the best vid player on linux afaik
[04:32] <tingle> thanks guys
[04:33] <yondie> hurm.. anyone have any idea how to play midi file? without consuming 100% cpu usage
[04:33] <mat1980> !midi
[04:33] <ubotu> Trouble playing MIDI files? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MidiSoftwareSynthesisHowTo
[04:33] <Paddy_EIRE> dr_willis, maybe its that video output option in vlc should be something else other than xv or x11
[04:34] <computa_Mike> hello - i posted on here earlier about having problems compiling Linux Drivers - I was advised to install the headers, which I have done (i think) but now I am getting an error :make[1] : *** No rule to make target `Source'.  Stop.
[04:34] <computa_Mike> any ideas?
[04:34] <nothingssomethin> ok how do i change settings of network devices in terminal
[04:34] <dr_willis> Paddy_EIRE,  thats possible.
[04:34] <dr_willis> nothingssomethin,  what settings exactly?
[04:34] <Paddy_EIRE> thanks anyhow SMplayer works perfect for now
[04:34] <mat1980> computa_Mike: you havn't done ./configure
[04:34] <dr_willis> nothingssomethin,  'ifconfig' for most cases controls stuff.
[04:35] <nothingssomethin> well the default device to use or to change the one i want to use
[04:35] <computa_Mike> Mat1980 - thanks - do i just go to the comamnd line and type that in?
[04:35] <SAM_theman> !games
[04:35] <ubotu> Information about games on Ubuntu can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php and ubuntugames.org
[04:35] <nothingssomethin> that i thoought only displays stuff
[04:35] <pike_> nothingssomethin: gksu /etc/network/interfaces  to change the defualt autoconnect settings
[04:35] <pike_> nothingssomethin: er.. gksu gedit /etc/network/interfaces
[04:36] <pike_> nothingssomethin: or nano for cli
[04:36] <dr_willis> nothingssomethin,  what you are wanting to change is not clear.. and ifconfig does set various settings for the network devices. :) theres other ways to set them as well. depending on what you want done.
[04:36] <nothingssomethin> ok i'm going to try that
[04:37] <mat1980> computa_Mike: yes. Read the file README. There it should be explained how to compile the driver.
[04:37] <nothingssomethin> well
[04:37] <MrOtacon> how do i get the window close buttons back in beryl?
[04:37] <computa_Mike> Mat - that's the problem - I'm working through the OReilly book on developing device drivers and I basically have just the sample code...
[04:38] <dr_willis> computa_Mike,  sounds like your make file or command is incorrect. its looking to build the wrong thing.
[04:39] <nothingssomethin> i am forced to use diagnostic mode and it won't let me onto the internet and with little digging i found out that it's trying to use my hard line ethernet device witch is not pluged in and the other card is in pcimcia slot and it is blinking away and acting normal i really don't know what to do but it won't even ping google so it's not online
[04:39] <_Titatovenaar_> does nVIDIA's sli work on ubu?
[04:39] <dr_willis> nothingssomethin,  you are trying to use a wireless card instead of the wired card?
[04:40] <nothingssomethin> well yeah
[04:40] <computa_Mike> Mat1980 - so what is this ./cofigure command do?
[04:40] <nothingssomethin> why
[04:40] <dr_willis> nothingssomethin,  thats MUCh clearer then what you've been asking. :)
[04:40] <nothingssomethin> is that not possable in debug mode because i did it before
[04:40] <kitche> computa_Mike: look at the configure file it's just a script
[04:41] <computa_Mike> thanks dr_Willis :I downloaded the code from the OReilly examples site - has anyone tried compiling it?
[04:41] <dr_willis> nothingssomethin, debug mode? if you got the drivers/modules/card configufed right it should work in the other modes
[04:41] <nothingssomethin> it did it automaticly last time
[04:41] <mat1980> computa_Mike: it should check that on your system there is all you need, and maybe configure something for match the compilation to your system
[04:41] <nothingssomethin> it is configed right
[04:41] <dr_willis> nothingssomethin,  'last time' as in last Install? or last reboot? or last week?
[04:41] <computa_Mike> ok - I'll give it a whirl...
[04:41] <nothingssomethin> i used it before i started haveing problems with nvidia
[04:42] <nothingssomethin> that's why i'm in debug mode
[04:42] <dr_willis> nothingssomethin,  if there was a kernel update lately, you may need to reinstall the proper wireless card modules.
[04:42] <computa_Mike> Mat1980 : Configure doesn't seem to do anything
[04:43] <nothingssomethin> would i need the internet for that
[04:43] <kitche> computa_Mike: you have to be in the folder of the source code and type ./configure since it's a script in the source directory
[04:43] <nothingssomethin> cause i don't got it on my laptop
[04:43] <nothingssomethin> untill the card starts working
[04:43] <dan1> hello everyone, i'm measuring performance of usb flash drive. benchmark prog (iozone) reports read speeds of, as an example, 1261238 kbytes/sec
[04:44] <nothingssomethin> but the card looks like it's working just fine i don't understand
[04:44] <dan1> this is clearly way too high, i have turned off caching, but these results cannot be right. can anyone help explain/suggest why
[04:44] <pike_> dan1: well.. flash is fast ;p
[04:44] <computa_Mike> kitchie : the source code I am trying to compile has a load of .c files and a makefile - no configure file...
[04:45] <bthoem> I need to change the default OS to boot in GRUB. What is the way to change that?
[04:45] <kitche> computa_Mike: then just run make
[04:45] <tamy> ablarme
[04:45] <dan1> pike: i tested on mac,  uncached read 10 megs/sec, manufacturer reports similar
[04:45] <tamy> oie mi msn

[04:46] <Ryarlyegh> anyone here who can help me with some nvidia problems
[04:46] <jrib> bthoem: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst, look for the line that says "default"
[04:46] <dan1> flash is fast but not over 1gb/sec
[04:46] <Ryarlyegh> I just bought a new card, put it in my computer, but my 3d still doesn't seem to work
[04:46] <blubbi> I am new to ubunt... where can I find a package for isapnptools
[04:46] <kitche> dan1: umm it's more like 153.959717 megabytes
[04:47] <Ryarlyegh> I tried the restricted drivers, but it fails with the bootup and forces me to reconfigure my nvidia driver to nv-driver, which kinda sucks
[04:47] <dan1> kitchie...divide by 1024 to get meg/sec?
[04:47] <MrOtacon> anyone here use beryl?
[04:47] <jrib> MrOtacon: try #ubuntu-effects, but ask a specific question
[04:47] <MrOtacon> jrib: thanks
[04:48] <dr_willis> !find isapnp
[04:48] <ubotu> File isapnp found in module-init-tools
[04:48] <dan1> kitchie: how are you getting that figure
[04:49] <kitche> dan1: from google sicne I forgot how to do the math for it myself lol
[04:49] <r0t> does ubuntu 7.04 work on Intel core 2 duo desktop processor with Intel 965 chipset (D965RY Motherboard)
[04:49] <calc> r0t: thats what i run it on
[04:50] <calc> r0t: a c2d 6300 with P965 here
[04:50] <dan1> kitchie: what did you put into google to convert
[04:50] <calc> r0t: not the exact same motherboard though
[04:50] <kitche> dan1: the kilobyte number to MB
[04:50] <r0t> calc: ok. The older ubuntu versions did not work
[04:51] <dan1> 1 261 238 kilobytes = 1 231.67773 megabytes
[04:51] <kitche> dan1: but it does seem like to be 1 gig
[04:51] <dan1> yep, how could linux be reporting this write speed, i'm clearly doing something wrong
[04:52] <dan1> sorry read speed, but write is too high also
[04:52] <blubbi> could anybody tell me if isapnptools is in the repository?
[04:52] <dr_willis> we talkinbg a factor of 10 or 100x too high? :)
[04:52] <blubbi> I searched in Adept Manager... but no results
[04:52] <dr_willis> !find isapnptools
[04:52] <Hamish> Hello, I'm looking to install a dual boot Windows-Ubuntu, and I found a good guide on the internet
[04:52] <ubotu> Package/file isapnptools does not exist in feisty
[04:52] <blubbi> !find isapnptools
[04:52] <Hamish> But there is a problem,
[04:53] <blubbi> dr_willis: ?
[04:53] <Hamish> The screenshots in the guide look a little different than my install program
[04:53] <dr_willis> I aint had to mess with isa stuff in ages.. lets see
[04:53] <Hamish> I can't find an option to resize the partition
[04:53] <calc> r0t: i think 6.10 worked for me too, but i don't remember for certain whether i used that or just a preview cd for 7.04
[04:53] <dan1> willis: if you're talking to me, yes 100x too high!
[04:53] <blubbi> dr_willis: thanks
[04:53] <blubbi> dr_willis: http://packages.ubuntu.com/breezy/base/isapnptools
[04:53] <calc> r0t: i'm currently running gutsy on it though
[04:53] <r0t> calc: I got some strange error messages like 'failed to allocate memory resource' in the older versions
[04:53] <computa_Mike> Anybody recommend a linux distribution that I can write drivers in, because I've been plugging away with Ubuntu since this morning and I can't seem to compile the sample drivers that are on the OReilly site - anyone been able to do that?
[04:53] <blubbi> dr_willis: but it doesn't ocure in the repository
[04:54] <dr_willis> blubbi,  may of been removed in the latest releases.
[04:54] <calc> computa_Mike: did you install the linux headers for your version?
[04:54] <Hamish> There is only: Use entire disk, use largest continuous free space and manual.
[04:54] <Hamish> Which one should I use?
[04:54] <calc> computa_Mike: also what is the url for the stuff you are reading?
[04:54] <computa_Mike> calc: I have installed the headers and the kernel sources...
[04:54] <dr_willis> Hamish,  i find it best to have a spare hard drive just for linux. :) but thats not always an option.
[04:54] <pike_> computa_Mike: slackware is a good distro if ya want standardized linux and build tools. course 'good distro' can be subjective
[04:55] <Hamish> dr_willis: It's strange, in windows I have 2 hard drives but in my actual computer I can only find one.
[04:55] <dr_willis> Hamish,  failing that - i normally use a live cd. and the gparted program to resize a existing install of windows and shrink it. to have a block of unallocated drive space at the end of the drive.
[04:55] <computa_Mike> pike: naturally - I still think Ubuntu is a good distro - I use if at home and recommend it to all my friends...
[04:55] <calc> computa_Mike: which kernel was the driver information for?
[04:55] <dr_willis> Hamish,  use 'sudo fdisk -l' to see what hard drives are seen.
[04:55] <MTecknology> Will nessus have a free version that will be maintained or is going to become strictly a pay for program?
[04:55] <computa_Mike> 2.6
[04:55] <Hamish> Ok
[04:55] <dr_willis> Hamish,  you want to be VERY carefull - it would suck ifyou overwrote your windows install.
[04:55] <Hamish> I know
[04:55] <Hamish> I've read the warnings
[04:56] <computa_Mike> the document (book) i am going throught is the OReilly Linux Device Drivers Book (revision3 ) available on line
[04:56] <calc> computa_Mike: its possible 2.6 has changed too much since the document was written, otherwise it may be just some minor configuration issue
[04:56] <mez> Hi!, Whats the easiest way to upgrade to network manager 0.6.5? im new to linux :)
[04:56] <Hamish> dr_willis: It says I have sda1, sda2 and sda5
[04:56] <calc> computa_Mike: what kind of error did you get when you tried to compile it?
[04:56] <computa_Mike> i'm getting a STOP error
[04:57] <r0t> calc: have you tried running any other linux distros with your config ?
[04:57] <dr_willis> Hamish,  so you got 1 hard drive with 3 partitions it seems.  you did do 'sudo fdisk -l' (no sudo may not list them all)
[04:57] <calc> r0t: no
[04:57] <mez> Hi!, Whats the easiest way to upgrade to network manager 0.6.5? im new to linux :)
[04:57] <Hamish> I did sudo fdisk -l
[04:57] <calc> computa_Mike: can you paste the whole output to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[04:57] <Hamish> yes
[04:57] <computa_Mike> In particular I am geeting  *** No rule to make target `Source'.  Stop.
[04:57] <computa_Mike> calc : i'll do it now.
[04:57] <dr_willis> Hamish,  you are not confusing different drive letters under windows with different 'drives' :)  You can have 1 hard drive with 5+ partitions, c: D: e: and so on.. or ya can have several drives with 1 partition each.
[04:57] <eXistenz> Where can I get the fglrx 8.28 for ubuntu feisty?
[04:58] <Hamish> Ahh okay.
[04:58] <calc> computa_Mike: hmm thats odd, i think you could probably ask about it on kernelnewbies
[04:58] <r0t> calc: my hunch is that I have a hardware problem... none of the linux distros I have tried seemed to work
[04:58] <Hamish> So should I just use one of the partitions that I don't have anything on?
[04:58] <dr_willis> Hamish,  'drive' = book, partition, = chapters the book is divided into. :)
[04:58] <calc> computa_Mike: http://kernelnewbies.org/ irc channel on oftc
[04:58] <dr_willis> Hamish,  correct. it would be best to delete the unneeded partitions. and then let the installer use the Unallocated space.
[04:59] <Hamish> Okay.
[04:59] <computa_Mike> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27434/
[04:59] <r0t> calc: I will give ubuntu a try anyway :)
[04:59] <calc> r0t: its possible, if you have overclocked put it back at stock settings, also make sure you have up to date bios on the motherboard
[04:59] <Some_Person> I'm trying to make KDE apps have Human theme in Ubuntu; is there an Ubuntu human theme for KDE?
[04:59] <Hamish> So I'm going to delete sda5.
[04:59] <Some_Person> (note: I do not have KDE)
[04:59] <r0t> calc: hmm.. maybe i should update the bios!!
[05:00] <kitche> Some_Person: well probably not since kde apps use QT
[05:00] <Some_Person> QT?
[05:00] <Some_Person> I have KDE's kcontrol, it lets me set a theme for KDE apps
[05:00] <benmayim> I installed ubuntu606server with LAMP and created a database from the command line, but when I went to install joomla and it asked the name of the database and password, it accepted the database name, but a blank password? Is this secure?
[05:00] <calc> r0t: some 965 motherboards have had a LOT of bios updates
[05:00] <Some_Person> I just need a human theme
[05:00] <calc> r0t: so its possible yours is an old buggy one
[05:00] <r0t> calc: ok... but is it safe ?
[05:01] <kitche> benmayim: well not really but you didn't put in a password for your user
[05:01] <Hamish> dr_willis: I've deleted sda5, when I press next it says No Root File System, please select one from the partitioning menu
[05:01] <calc> r0t: as long as you follow the directions and don't power off the system while its doing the update, etc
[05:01] <benmayim> kitche, the installation never asked me for one.
[05:01] <eXistenz> anyone can help me? :)
[05:01] <Hamish> Please correct this from the partitioning menu*
[05:01] <eXistenz> I would like to get the fglrx 8.28
[05:01] <calc> r0t: do you have windows on the system too?
[05:02] <kitche> benmayim: you have to make one though the mysql command might want to read up on mysql
[05:02] <calc> computa_Mike: seems something must be wrong with your makefile
[05:02] <r0t> calc: yes WinXP it is working fine
[05:02] <computa_Mike> I'm going to try kernel Newbies - i'll let you guys know if i find anything out...
[05:02] <benmayim> And if i change it with mysqladmin, then the rest of the LAMP components probably won't be able to access mysql.
[05:02] <calc> r0t: some companies, not sure about the one that made yours have windows bios update utilities also
[05:02] <calc> r0t: so you wouldn't have to worry about booting into DOS somehow
[05:03] <r0t> calc: ok
[05:03] <dr_willis> Hamish,  you are now trying to do things manually. I would delete the partitiosn, let it write the changes to disk.. then backup and try the 'use all unallocated' space option.
[05:03] <mattm591> hello. my friend has managed to cock up there grub boot loader by reinstalling windows over the top. they still have ubuntu installed on the hdd but can't boot to it. they're also having problems booting from cdrom to repair it. is there anyway to repair it either from within windows (unlikely) or to repair it using a usb drive (hopefully!!!)
[05:03] <kitche> !grub | mattm591
[05:03] <schoolinux> Hi, I need to know something about Lenovo N200, anybody can help?
[05:03] <ubotu> mattm591: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[05:03] <Hamish> dr_willis: Shall I delete it from the terminal?
[05:03] <dr_willis> mattm591,  clarify the booting cdrom issue? that may be easiest to fix.
[05:03] <mez> Hi!, Whats the easiest way to upgrade to network manager 0.6.5? im new to linux :)

[05:03] <Pici> !repeat | mez
[05:03] <kitche> !repeat | mez
[05:03] <ubotu> mez: 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
[05:03] <r0t> calc: thanks for the info.. i will try the BIOS update and then Linux
[05:03] <dr_willis> Hamish,  i tend to use gparted, or the other fdisk tools to delete the partitions i dont want, then reboot the isntaller. :) just to be safe
[05:04] <Hamish> okay
[05:04] <mattm591> dr_willis: well i've tried to guide them through changing the boot order in bios but they have put cd rom at the top of the list and it still refuses to detect the cdrom in the drive and boots straight to win. not too sure why
[05:04] <dr_willis> mez,  'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade' should update the whole system.
[05:04] <mez> ty doc
[05:04] <schoolinux> I need to know something about notebook Lenovo N200, anybody can help?
[05:04] <calc> r0t: btw what is it that Linux is failing at when you try to install?
[05:05] <dr_willis> mattm591,  they sure its a good cd? :) ive seen some pcs where ya got to hit a key for it to boot the cd.. some have a Fkey ya hit to pop up a boot this device.. list also.
[05:05] <benmayim> kitche, If I give the mysql databases a password, will the rest of the LAMP (php and apache2) be able to work with each other, or will I have to change info in their config files?
[05:05] <StatusXxX> how do i mount my ubuntu partition with ubuntu live?
[05:05] <kitche> benmayim: it only effects mysql
[05:05] <mez> Reading state information... Done
[05:05] <mez> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[05:05] <mattm591> dr_willish: they have the boot list pop up, choose cd, and it still ignores it. i did wonder if it was a corrupt cd but it loads fine in windows (as in it shows the options to install OOo and FF etc.)
[05:05] <dr_willis> mattm591,  if they cant get it to boot off a cd.. i dont think they will have much luck booting off a usb-gizmo either.
[05:05] <dan1> with hdparm i can measure read speed, but not write speed, any way to measure write speed of disk??
[05:05] <r0t> calc: it says : failed to allocate memory resource @(some address) and does not boot further
[05:05] <rockets> Is it safe to use restricted-manager with kubuntu?
[05:06] <dr_willis> matti,  showing the stuff in windows does not mean its 100%. try booting it on another pc would be a better test.
[05:06] <dr_willis> rockets,  i use it all the time.
[05:06] <benmayim> kitche, what is the command for creating a password for mysql, then I can look it up in my manual for its forms.
[05:06] <rockets> dr_willis: thanks
[05:06] <r0t> calc: some linux distros also complained about BIOS related stuff
[05:06] <mattm591> dr_willis: ok will do. if this still doesn't work, and with the theoretical option of it booting from usb is it possible to repair from that?
[05:06] <calc> r0t: oh ok, yea the bios update might help there, worth a shot anyway
[05:06] <rockets> dr_willis: because it really is great :-D and I don't want to give it up now that I'm using kubuntu
[05:07] <kitche> benmayim: it's mysql query
[05:07] <brian1> I really need somebodies help sorting things out for installing apps. Everytime I try to install something (even with the add/remove ) I get the error: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[05:07] <brian1> E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
[05:07] <brian1> Im a beginner so I don't even know where to start. I want to sort this out so I can install the new ubuntu updates and flash. Can anybody help?
[05:07] <Some_Person> So there is no Ubuntu Human KDE theme?
[05:07] <dr_willis> mattm591,  ive never had much luck booting usb gizmos. you may be able to find some mini-disrto to install to usb devvice and boot it.
[05:07] <dan1> anyone know how to measure disk write speed in linux?
[05:07] <rockets> Some_Person: there is no officail one
[05:07] <benmayim> kitche, you mean "mysql query" ?
[05:07] <mattm591> dr_willis: ok thanks a lot for your help i'll see what can be done!
[05:07] <dr_willis> dan1,  thers some benchmark tools for that.
[05:07] <dr_willis> !info bonnie
[05:07] <pike_> dan1: sudo hdparm -tT /dev/hda    for example
[05:07] <ubotu> Package bonnie does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[05:07] <kitche> benmayim: you have to put the password in using an query pretty much
[05:07] <r0t> calc: cool, i will update the bios then, Thanks for the help
[05:07] <dr_willis> !info find benchmark
[05:08] <ubotu> Package find does not exist in feisty
[05:08] <kitche> benmayim: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/set-password.html
[05:08] <Hamish> dr_willis: I now have sda1 and 16 GiB unallocated.
[05:08] <Hamish> Is that what I want?
[05:08] <dr_willis> Hamish,  that will give ya 16gb for linux tyo install to.. that should be good
[05:08] <Hamish> okay
[05:08] <MSIGuy> So what media player does everyone like?
[05:08] <benmayim> kitche, I mean, what is the exact wording for the command.
[05:09] <MSIGuy> Do people really use Totem?
[05:09] <kitche> benmayim: SET PASSWORD [FOR user]  = PASSWORD('some password')
[05:09] <dan1> dr_willis: i don't think bonnie can be used on external disks or network share??
[05:09] <brian1> please anyone?
[05:09] <calc> r0t: looks like intel released a new bios every week for a while
[05:09] <dr_willis> dan1,  external = usb - i dotn see why not..  network shares - no idea.
[05:09] <dray> Hello folks, hope you can help me. Running xbuntu, using the 'add/remove programs' feature to install a few programs.  it goes through its usual update, i pick a simple small program, worked fine last night, today it just hangs ....  so, how can this be fixed/updated/removed?
[05:10] <dan1>  Timing cached reads:   2266 MB in  2.00 seconds = 1133.99 MB/sec
[05:10] <alesan> hi
[05:10] <StatusXxX> How did you boot to single user mode?
[05:10] <dr_willis> dray,  try 'sudo apt-get update && apt-get upgrade' from the shell.
[05:10] <alesan> I see my openoffice installation lacks ALL the icons like the buttons etc
[05:10] <alesan> should I reinstall something? any idea?
[05:10] <dan1> is buffered basically uncached or what is the difference between buffered and cached read?
[05:11] <alesan> in the toolbar in the dialog boxes all the icons are missing
[05:11] <Hamish> dr_willis: Now in the installer I should choose: Guided: Use the largest continuous free space, is that right?
[05:11] <dray> thanks dr, would you know the pid/process name for the add/remove program so I can kill it? i have a feeling it might interfere with any apt commands i run
[05:11] <dr_willis> Hamish,  yep.
[05:11] <kitche> dan1: buffered is cached
[05:11] <linuxor> HI, How to change the owner of a repertory?? thx
[05:12] <Hamish> hmm
[05:12] <Hamish> It can't import data from Windows 2000?
[05:12] <dr_willis> dray,  use 'ps ax' and look i guess..  apt-get will spit out a warning if its cant get a lock.
[05:12] <StatusXxX> How do you boot in single user mode?
[05:12] <dan1> kitchie: with hdparm it reports speeds for buffered read and for cached read, what is the difference, looking thru man now!
[05:12] <kitche> StatusXxX: it's recovery mode
[05:12] <dr_willis> StatusXxX,  theres a rescue/recovery mode in the grub menus normally.
[05:12] <StatusXxX> dr_willis well i dont have one
[05:12] <Tiia-> .tut.fi
[05:12] <StatusXxX> and the system is broken
[05:13] <neozen> meep!
[05:13] <dr_willis> StatusXxX,  so what entrys do you have in the grub menus?
[05:13] <StatusXxX> dr_willis only the one
[05:14] <StatusXxX> that boots normally
[05:14] <StatusXxX> i need to boot from grubs command line
[05:14] <dr_willis> StatusXxX,  use the 'e' to edit the boot options for that entry and append 'single' to the end of the kernel= line.
[05:14] <dr_willis> similer to    kernel          /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-generic root=UUID=b089b9c2-9b6a-4cda-a096-4c02be27da0d ro single
[05:15] <geoffthefish> i just installed 6.06 server but it failed to detect my network card (compaq presario sr50), how should i proceed?
[05:15] <StatusXxX> ok
[05:15] <dr_willis> your uuid will vary. :) of course.
[05:15] <dr_willis> pike_,  uuid saved me a lot of grief when i moved a lot of hds around last week. :)
[05:15] <kamavedita> ae
[05:15] <dr_willis> i normally set up fstab to mount based on Label. :) looks nicer that way
[05:16] <brian1> I really need somebodies help sorting things out for installing apps. Everytime I try to install something (even with the add/remove ) I get the error: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.

[05:16] <fritz> can you help me with the transparency feature in kubuntu .....i found the translucrency feature in kcontrol but it doesen't work
[05:16] <fritz> http://dot.kde.org/1179921215/1179939974/1179941671/1180012629/
[05:16] <fritz> 1. Make sure your xorg graphics driver has composite support and that you have composite turned on in your xorg.conf.
[05:16] <fritz> can any1 translate that?
[05:17] <dr_willis> brian1,  as the error suggests.. run that command as the root user.   'sudo dpkg --configure -a'
[05:17] <StatusXxX> How am i supposed to fsck my main filesystem?
[05:17] <Pici> fritz: you might want to try asking in #kubuntu
[05:17] <StatusXxX> its mounted
[05:17] <Hamish> dr_willis: After installing, would it be possible to ever decrease the size of the windows partition and increase the size of the ubuntu one?
[05:17] <Hamish> Incase I need more space?
[05:18] <dr_willis> Hamish,  yea. proberly easier to just add a 2nd hard drive. :)
[05:18] <dr_willis> Hamish,  given how cheap they are these days.. unless this is a laptop.
[05:18] <kapistus> Erhm, could someone give me a hand here? i'm still new to this and eh.. I have no idea how to install Half-life 2, haha
[05:18] <khermans_> is there an advanced ubuntu help channel?
[05:18] <Hamish> nah its a desktop
[05:18] <brian1> dr_willis: I tried that and got Usage: command-not-found [options]  <command-name>
[05:18] <dr_willis> kapistus,  thats more of a cedega/wine issue. :) and im sure googling willget some hits.
[05:18] <linuxor> HI, How to change the owner of a repertory?? thx
[05:18] <johndoc> crossover office is starting to port a few games
[05:18] <dr_willis> brian1,  i would say you did a typo.
[05:19] <Pici> StatusXxX: Drop into single user mode, it unmounts all the filesystems
[05:19] <khermans_> kapistus, look at cedega
[05:19] <dr_willis> brian1,  you dident include the  quotes did you....
[05:19] <kapistus> dr_willis, i installed wine just a moment ago but it makes no difference.
[05:19] <osxdude|laptop> is cedega better than wine?
[05:19] <johndoc> kapistus: are you willing to pay?
[05:19] <khermans_> osxdude|laptop, for games yes
[05:19] <johndoc> cedega is just like wine
[05:19] <dr_willis> kapistus,  makes no differance... how... vague.. :)
[05:19] <kapistus> johndoc, err... No?
[05:19] <brian1> dr_willis: I did, I'll take them out
[05:19] <johndoc> it just automates some things
[05:19] <johndoc> then use wine kapistus
[05:19] <mattm591> can anyone help me try and get my internal bluetooth working on my laptop. i'm 90% sure I have it but ubuntu doesn't seem to want to use it... i've installed bluez-utils and gnome-bluetooth or something but it still can't be detected by other bluetooth devices
[05:19] <khermans_> johndoc, it is true that cedega is based on wine
[05:19] <osxdude|laptop> my wine is messed up so thanks.
[05:20] <khermans_> osxdude|laptop, how so?
[05:20] <johndoc> no, it's true that cedega is built on top of wine
[05:20] <kapistus> But all i have is "Wine config" And "Wine regedit" or something like that.
[05:20] <johndoc> lolz
[05:20] <khermans_> osxdude|laptop, just go grab the latest binary for your distro
[05:20] <kitche> khermans_: well cedega was called winex
[05:20] <johndoc> exactly
[05:20] <khermans_> kitche, yes of course
[05:20] <brian1> dr_willis: Now it asks for a password, but it doesn't allow me to type at all
[05:20] <kapistus> Okay, would you tell me what to do with them?
[05:20] <Neil-> christ, how can I stop gaim stealing focus everytime someone says a message in irc?
[05:20] <osxdude|laptop> It only shows th first word on each line in dialogs and installer windows.
[05:20] <Neil-> anyone know?!
[05:20] <khermans_> brian1, you are typing

[05:20] <twisties> herro thar. anybody know how to fix Postal 2 sound problems?
[05:20] <kbrooks> Can I talk simplicity in here related to Ubuntu? :-)
[05:21] <UrbanMystic> when gnome starts to load, it some how hangs
[05:21] <osxdude|laptop> yes
[05:21] <UrbanMystic> is anyone facing the same problem?
[05:21] <brian1> khermans: on the terminal
[05:21] <cmontara> hola
[05:21] <johndoc> kapistus, you should google for something like wine "game name"
[05:21] <johndoc> maybe even throw the distro name in the query
[05:21] <kapistus> Hmm, okay, i'll try that.
[05:21] <vistakiller> what game?
[05:21] <magnetron> http://appdb.winehq.org/    johndoc kapistus
[05:21] <dan1> pike: think i have this figured out, for anyone who may encounter a similar problem

[05:22] <dan1> the -U option with iozone unmounts the device between each test. using this option, i am getting much more believable results (approx 10-15 megs/sec read and write)
[05:22] <mattm591> does anyone know what I can do to try and find out if my laptop has bluetooth?
[05:23] <dan1> i think this prevents linux cache from helping out!
[05:23] <kitche> mattm591: umm go to it's website and look it up?
[05:23] <mat1980> UrbanMystic: never. Have you enough free space?
[05:23] <brian1> dr_willis: I think I may have gotten it to work
[05:23] <mattm591> kitche: yes the website thinks it does, but ubuntu thinks it doesnt
[05:23] <dan1> i also use -e option to turn of caching, but this didn't seem to have much effect. anyway, thanks for discussion guys
[05:23] <osxdude|laptop> mattm591: usually most laptops but a bluetooth light on.
[05:23] <dray> dr, i think that command you gave me is recplacing the entire contents of my hard drive .. j/k
[05:23] <UrbanMystic> mat1980, in my home partition? yes i do
[05:24] <mattm591> osxdue: mine doesn't have anywhere for a bluetooth light. its internal.  it does have a hot key to turn it on and off though
[05:24] <UrbanMystic> even in my root partition i have enough
[05:24] <efuentes> ola
[05:24] <UrbanMystic> infact, even my brother's laptop with ubuntu was giving the same problem mat1980

[05:26] <olliwolli> hi, does somebody know a reason, why org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.SystemPowerManagement does not emit any signals. I want to build an application that does something when before/after the computer goes to suspend.
[05:26] <Lee_Pepper> is there any one who could help me in identifying a distro by a python script (eg. ident ubuntu from debian??)
[05:26] <koen_> koen
[05:26] <UrbanMystic> nope no messages come up
[05:27] <mattm591> so is there no command to see if ubuntu has detected my bluetooth as being present?
[05:27] <UrbanMystic> actually it doesnt hang always, but it takes just too long to load
[05:28] <dr_willis> mattm591,  check dmesg output?
[05:28] <jrib> Lee_Pepper: what do you mean?  use lsb_release?
[05:28] <UrbanMystic> maybe half hour or so, i dont know coz i restart the GUI and login again and again until it works
[05:28] <dawkirst> Hello, how can I know if Ubuntu 7.04 will work on my Compaq Presario 700 laptop?
[05:28] <dr_willis> Lee_Pepper,  lsb_release  -a
[05:28] <Lee_Pepper> jrib: never heard of that is it a file i can read and get the distro  and version etc??
[05:28] <jrib> dawkirst: try the desktop cd, it is also a live cd you can try straight from the cd drive
[05:29] <dr_willis> Lee_Pepper,  its a command. :)
[05:29] <Neil-> Whats that app you can start in a console, and it shows all keystrokes/events?
[05:29] <jrib> Lee_Pepper: you can use "lsb_release -appropriate_switch' or read /etc/lsb-release
[05:29] <mattm591> so does this "[   30.440000]  Bluetooth: HCI device and connection manager initialized
[05:29] <mattm591> [   30.440000]  Bluetooth: HCI socket layer initialized

[05:29] <koen_> hi, i have a question about gnome panels: how to have the normal right-button features (like "lock to panel", "move" etc.) on panel-icons which have their own right-click menu (like gaim and nerworkmanager applet)
[05:29] <Lee_Pepper> thank you guys...
[05:29] <mat1980> UrbanMystic: /var/log/messages or /var/log/user.log do contain something about this?
[05:29] <Lee_Pepper> exactly what i needed
[05:30] <UrbanMystic> let me see
[05:30] <dawkirst> jrib, thanks, but then I'll only know for certain when I've tried it for an extensive time using the live CD, or when I've already installed it. Isn't there a way to be certain it'll work before any of that?
[05:30] <jrib> !laptop > dawkirst (see the private message from ubotu)
[05:30] <mattm591> dr_willis: so does this (http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27436/) show that a bluetooth receiver is present
[05:30] <jrib> dawkirst: if it loads the desktop you are in good shape... if it doesn't it still might work
[05:31] <dr_willis> mattm591,  looks like its seeing it and initlizing it..
[05:31] <dawkirst> jrib, thanks a million :)
[05:31] <mattm591> dr_willis: so why is it that i can't use it!!!!
[05:31] <dr_willis> mattm591,  i would guess its not configured right yet.
[05:32] <dr_willis> mattm591,  i recall some pin file/command from using bluetooth a few months back
[05:32] <dr_willis> !find bluetooth
[05:32] <ubotu> Found: kdebluetooth, kdebluetooth-irmcsync, libbluetooth2, libbluetooth2-dev, bluetooth (and 3 others)
[05:32] <bethko> How do I get ahold of someone on the gusty dev team?
[05:32] <Hamish> dr_willis: The install program is removing things, is that normal?
[05:32] <dr_willis> mattm591,  and then i used it under KDE. so i ran the kdebluetooth service.
[05:33] <dr_willis> Hamish,  depends.. if it updating things.. it will remove the old/install the new
[05:33] <Hamish> okay
[05:33] <mattm591> dr_willis: i do have the ubuntu bluetooth service installed but that doesn't think it exsists
[05:33] <Hamish> well it's finished now
[05:33] <Hamish> So I'm going to reboot.
[05:33] <Hamish> thanks for your help
[05:33] <osxdude|laptop> mattm591: reinstall
[05:33] <UrbanMystic> mat1980, i have pasted the log here: http://pastebin.com/937574
[05:33] <UrbanMystic> see if u can see any important msg
[05:33] <dr_willis> mattm591,  there may be some bluetooth wiki/forum pages fr using them under gnome. ive only used one under kde.
[05:34] <UrbanMystic> i also tried to delete the .gnome* directories from my home folder
[05:34] <mattm591> dr_willis: ok then... i'll look over it again, it just seems to be telling me to install these packages and expect it to work!
[05:34] <bethko> How do I contact the devolopment team?
[05:34] <UrbanMystic> i believe that resets the setting. correct me if i am wrong
[05:35] <dr_willis> mattm591,   bluetooth is one of those 'never quite works right'; things from what ive seen.. evenunder windows..  its always been flakey for me.
[05:35] <osxdude|laptop> UrbanMystic, it probably will.
[05:35] <UrbanMystic> but even that doesn't work every time
[05:35] <mattm591> dr_willis: i may have to spend on an adapter that is known to work.. gutted that i have it already but just can't use it!
[05:35] <bethko> There are no contacts on the blue prints page and I know this is the wrong chat.
[05:36] <kitche> bethko: http://www.canonical.com
[05:36] <bethko> Thats the company
[05:36] <kitche> bethko: they are also the developers
[05:36] <twisties> Can anyone help me setting up dual-monitors correctly?
[05:36] <bethko> I need the chat room
[05:36] <dr_willis> twisties,  what video card?
[05:37] <kitche> bethko: none of the developers use irc really
[05:37] <twisties> dr_willis: nVidia 7900GS 512
[05:37] <dr_willis> 'need'  heh.
[05:37] <twisties> Ive got the nVidia driver installed
[05:37] <dr_willis> twisties,  nvidia includes a command line tool that can tweak the xorg.conf to set them up. what kind of montior setup ya got?

[05:37] <mari_13> ola
[05:37] <mari_13> ola
[05:37] <dr_willis> twisties,  #1 thing to rember is BACKUP your working xorg.conf file.
[05:37] <mari_13> hello
[05:37] <kitche> bethkot but it's #ubuntu-dev
[05:37] <bethko> yeah, talking and writing code don't really mix but still

[05:38] <twisties> ive got a 19inch benq lcd on the right of a 17inch acer crt
[05:38] <bethko> Thank you! :)
[05:38] <dr_willis> twisties,  well backup ya xorg.conf ad check out     nvidia-xconfig  -A
[05:38] <dr_willis> I got a lcd/tv here.. so my xor5g.conf is not going to be quite the same as yours will be
[05:39] <twisties> will do dr_willis.
[05:39] <Fallenou> hello, i have some kernel panic problem , here are all informations about my problem : http://fallen.yozora-irc.net/photos/panic/
[05:39] <Fallenou> if you want more information just ask me :s
[05:39] <dr_willis> twisties,   nvidia-xconfig  -twinview
[05:39] <Fallenou> thank you in advance :)
[05:39] <client05> san
[05:39] <dr_willis> twisties,  will MOST likely get them both working. :) hopefully
[05:39] <mat1980> UrbanMystic: please paste ~/.xsession-errors
[05:40] <twisties> well ive had it working the way i liked once before
[05:40] <koen_> hey. how to move icons on your gnome panel like the gaim icon, and the nerworkmanager icon?
[05:40] <dr_willis> twisties,  you now know why i keep dated/archives of my xorg.conf files. :)
[05:40] <twisties> but at the moment I get the one panel stretched over both monitors (I previously had one on each) and windows didnt spawn right between the two screens
[05:40] <dr_willis> koen_,  cant just drag/drop them from the menu to the panel?
[05:41] <dr_willis> twisties,  thats a twinview/xinerama differance.
[05:41] <nothingssomethin> why does apt-get say it has super cow powers??? do i have a virus or something
[05:41] <dr_willis> twisties,  twinview is supposed to be 'smarter' and the apps are supposed to work better when using Twinview
[05:41] <Pici> nothingssomethin: its just a little humor
[05:41] <dr_willis> Moo!
[05:41] <dr_willis> !info cowsay

[05:41] <nothingssomethin> moo!

[05:41] <genii> nothingssomethin:  Try apt-get install moo
[05:42] <dr_willis> fortune | cowsay
[05:43] <bobjones_> hi all, iam wondering if its possible that a LG L1950T is slightly incompatible with linux? or possible my nvidia 7600gt.  Ubuntor resoultion gui says its running at 50mhz, but the monitors menus states 60mhz.  Also the feisty live cd boots up with the moniter out of sync
[05:43] <koen_> dr_willis.
[05:43] <Pici> genii: its just `apt-get moo`
[05:43] <genii> Pici Sorry :)
[05:43] <nothingssomethin> lol have i mooed today
[05:43] <koen_> i mean that you move or unlock icons that already reside on the panel. dr_willis
[05:44] <dr_willis> koen_,  Hmm.. Middle click on them?
[05:44] <nothingssomethin> what is the orignal default driver for nvidia installed with ubuntu
[05:44] <UrbanMystic> http://cpp.sourceforge.net/?show=37712
[05:44] <kitche> nothingssomethin: nv
[05:44] <UrbanMystic> mat1980, pastebin seems to be giving prob
[05:44] <koen_> dr_willis, how to middle click on my laptop :P i dont have a middle mouse button on my touchpad
[05:44] <UrbanMystic> so i pasted here: http://cpp.sourceforge.net/?show=37712
[05:45] <dr_willis> koen_,  'cord' the buttons.. click both at same time
[05:45] <koen_> is there a short key to make the default right click menu appear
[05:45] <nothingssomethin> it can't find that package
[05:45] <ibanex> hi all, is there a way to check a version of a package with apt-get?
[05:45] <koen_> dr_willis. doesnt work
[05:45] <richee> !bluetooth
[05:45] <ubotu> For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[05:45] <dr_willis> koen_,  you may not have mouse-cording setup in the xorg.conf  then. It works that way with my laptop.
[05:46] <twisties> WOO
[05:46] <Pici> ibanex: apt-cache policy packagename
[05:46] <ibanex> koen_: you can use xmodmap to redirect a key to a pointer button as well
[05:46] <twisties> dr_willis: ok, now to reset all the custom panels
[05:46] <twisties> oh and change the resolution on the crt
[05:46] <ibanex> Pici: great, thanks
[05:46] <nothingssomethin> !nvidia
[05:46] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:47] <twisties> dr_wllis: How does one go about changing the res on the crt (screen 0) to 1280x1024 from command line?
[05:47] <dr_willis> twisties,  some programs are still stupid about where they position things.
[05:47] <twisties> yeah
[05:47] <dr_willis> twisties,  could manually edit the xorg.conf i guess.. ive not had to tweak them much on my system
[05:47] <twisties> ill survive. its mainly vlc or mplayer. I want them to fullscreen in one screen only
[05:47] <dr_willis> twisties,  may be some xrand tool to let ya change them on the fly
[05:48] <bobjones_> hi all, iam wondering if its possible that a LG L1950T is slightly incompatible with linux? or possible my nvidia 7600gt.  Ubuntu resoultion gui says its running at 50mhz, but the monitors menus states 60mhz.  Also the feisty live cd boots up with the moniter out of sync
[05:48] <dr_willis> twisties,  ive gotten xine/vlc/mplayer to be on monitor #2 (my tv) full screened Just fine. :)
[05:48] <twisties> awesome
[05:48] <twisties> i had it working brilliantly
[05:48] <twisties> untill running beryl with dual screens screwed it all up
[05:49] <ibanex> koen_: this may help, check out the xmodmap script http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/installation/84538-right-clicking-macbook.html
[05:50] <jrib> bobjones_: mine does that too, nvidia-settings says 60 too, so I just assume the screen resolution program is wrong
[05:50] <nothingssomethin> lspci|grep what is the middle symbol on my keyboard
[05:50] <r0t> calc: i went through the release notes for the BIOS updates and it seems that the errors reported by Linux seem to have been fixed
[05:50] <johndoc> hey jrib
[05:50] <Pici> nothingssomethin: its a pipe, its shift-\
[05:50] <jrib> johndoc: hi
[05:50] <Pici> nothingssomethin: At least on US keyboards.
[05:50] <ttuuxxx> here's a question if you can download a beta version of vista/longhorn and its image is compressed from 769MB to 1.44MB then why doesn't ubuntu do this also, ?
[05:50] <nothingssomethin> aaah ok
[05:51] <computa_Mike> mat1980 - found out why i couldn't compile my drivers - they were stored in a folder called "Oreilly Examples" - following advice from kernel Newbies I renamed the folder removing the space and all of a sudden they compile... and work.
[05:51] <jrib> !minimal > ttuuxxx (see the private message from ubotu)
[05:51] <voici> hi, how can i find out which daemon is listening on a specific port on localhost. for example i have a ftp-service running on 21. how would i find out which ftp-daemon it would be?
[05:51] <s-mc> Q: can i use .deb packages on ubuntu
[05:51] <s-mc> ?
[05:51] <nothingssomethin> how do i un freze an action
[05:51] <nothingssomethin> in term
[05:51] <Pici> s-mc: Yes, debs are the standard Ubuntu package format
[05:51] <jrib> s-mc: only if they are .deb packages for your version of ubuntu.  Use the repos first if it is in the repos.  What do you want to install?
[05:52] <ttuuxxx> thanks jrib
[05:52] <twisties> dr_wliis: Ok where does one look in the xorg.conf for screen res and what does one change?
[05:52] <nickrud> voici, sudo netstat -tlpn
[05:52] <voici> nickrud: tnx
[05:52] <s-mc> looking at webmin, need a gui for bind. (windows has spoilt me)
[05:52] <dr_willis> twisties,  now is the time to read up on xorg.conf :) its not too complex a file. but theres a lot of room to make typos/errors.
[05:53] <dr_willis> twisties,  nvidia has a lotof docs on their specific twinview settings/options also.
[05:53] <ttuuxxx> sorry just every time i download ubuntu its usually over 700mb and a supercompessed iso at 1.44mb would be so much better for both
[05:53] <dr_willis> twisties,  i THINK you want to mess with the 'metamodes' feature of twinview
[05:54] <twisties> ok, if i use the GUI (i know im lazy) to change the res will it screw up any of my other options?
[05:54] <dr_willis> twisties,  not sure what gui you are refering to.
[05:54] <bobjones_> jrib: ok cool, checked nvidia display settings aswell, says 60 too.  do you think the live cd booting up with monitor out of sync is anything to worry about, i guess i could always grab the alternate install cd.  the fedore 7 live cd also dosent work, the monitor is in sync, but the screen is garbeled
[05:54] <dr_willis> twisties,  theres the xrand stuff that can change the res on a per user basis.
[05:54] <dr_willis>  Option         "MetaModes" "nvidia-auto-select, nvidia-auto-select"     - is what i got in my xorg.conf
[05:54] <jrib> bobjones_: nothing wrong with using the alternate cd, I prefer it
[05:54] <dr_willis> twisties,  so both my monitors are set to autoselect. it seems
[05:54] <nothingssomethin> i was soposto input this command..... lspci|grep-invidia...... but instead i just intered this one and now it is froze just a  blinking dot... grep-invidia
[05:55] <dr_willis> nothingssomethin,  its not froze.. its waiting for input.
[05:55] <kitche> nothingssomethin: ctrl+C
[05:55] <dr_willis> nothingssomethin,  hit ctrl-c
[05:55] <twisties> i was referring to nvidia-settings GUI
[05:55] <nothingssomethin> wow yall are cool
[05:55] <dr_willis> Bash 101 stuff. :)
[05:55] <dr_willis> twisties,  cant say that ive ever used that. :)
[05:55] <nothingssomethin> synpact package manager
[05:56] <kitche> it's not even bash it has to deal with how the shell knows
[05:56] <nothingssomethin> search for nvidia
[05:56] <dr_willis> twisties,  when in doubt.. BACKUP your working xorg.conf :)
[05:56] <mylogic> backup everything you do O.o
[05:56] <mylogic> configs especially
[05:56] <wobx> mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /dev/null
[05:56] <dr_willis> twisties,  and if ya run that with 'sudo nvidia-settings' it should change the xorg.conf (i think)
[05:56] <mat1980> UrbanMystic: can't find something useful. filemp3-c.c:line518(III_huffman_decode):assertionfailed:(i<=SSLIMIT*SBLIMIT) could be the problem, but I'm not sure at all. Could be that gnome tries to start rhythmbox and then stops after its crash? Does rhythmbox start automatically on startup?
[05:57] <mat1980> computa_Mike: ok, well done!
[05:57] <twisties> dr_willis: yeah i've learned to sudo that when opening it otherwise it doesnt save the xorg and restarting X just resets it all
[05:57] <dan1> anyone know if it is possible to run ubuntu fiesty on mac pro?
[05:57] <dan1> native
[05:57] <Music_Shuffle> Yeah.
[05:58] <dr_willis> twisties,  makes logical sence to me. :)
[05:58] <nick_> hi all

[06:04] <jetscreamer> just buy a new one and restore from that backup you make every night
[06:05] <jetscreamer> yes, that backup
[06:05] <neozen> that's cold
[06:05] <demian> just buy a new one! I wish :)
[06:05] <Music_Shuffle> jetscreamer, oh THAT backup?  ;)
[06:06] <Pici> walkover: Try asking in ##c
[06:06] <bobjones_> thanks all, seeyas
[06:06] <demian> can I unmount and then mount the hardrive I've got ubuntu runnung?
[06:06] <jetscreamer> demian: so fsck errors out when it's fsck'ing on_boot?
[06:07] <jetscreamer> yes you can but shutdown -Fr now will do it when you boot up
[06:07] <mat1980> walkover: http://www-ccs.ucsd.edu/c/string.html#strcmp
[06:07] <jetscreamer> you need to remount it ro if you want to do it inplace
[06:07] <walkover> thanks mat1980 and Pici
[06:07] <demian> I'll first try the shutdown with -Fr
[06:08] <jetscreamer> you can also touch /forcefsck for the same result
[06:08] <twisties> WOOT! dual-monitors working once again!

[06:11] <crolle17> how to grep a bunch of ascii-files?
[06:11] <crolle17> searching for a string inside these files...
[06:12] <jetscreamer> grep -i what where
[06:12] <dr_willis> voici,  the 'fuse' tools let you do that in a nice way
[06:12] <demian> ehm... no
[06:12] <demian> I rebooted with the splash on
[06:12] <Fragility> is there any reason no website thinks it is relevent to explain how to upgrade drivers?
[06:12] <d3v1l88> hi
[06:12] <jetscreamer> you should just know
[06:12] <d3v1l88> hello
[06:12] <demian> bu while doing zo I thought of another question
[06:12] <vin> list
[06:12] <kitche> Fragility: well because you just install the drivers
[06:12] <Fragility> because I just installed ubuntu for the first time and pretty much nthing is supported
[06:12] <dr_willis> Fragility,  'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade' normally does it.
[06:13] <demian> is there a way to isolate bad clusters
[06:13] <Fragility> and I downloaded the drive for into graphics and it doesnt go
[06:13] <Fragility> ty
[06:13] <dr_willis> Fragility,  you normally DONT download drivers from the nvidia or whever site..
[06:13] <kitche> Fragility: what video card?
[06:13] <jetscreamer> heh
[06:13] <dr_willis> Fragility,  you use the package manager to install them
[06:13] <jetscreamer> or do you.. sounds like nvidia or ati to me
[06:13] <Fallenou> hello, i have some kernel panic problem , here are all informations about my problem : http://fallen.yozora-irc.net/photos/panic/
[06:13] <dr_willis> !info restricted-manager
[06:13] <ubotu> restricted-manager: manage non-free hardware drivers. In component main, is optional. Version 0.20 (feisty), package size 32 kB, installed size 300 kB
[06:14] <Fragility> yeah I downloaded a driver from intel and clicking to install isnt working, though it is an application
[06:14] <neztiti> hi guys
[06:14] <Fragility> I guess that explains why the website for intel support on ubuntu doesnt actually have a download link?
[06:14] <Fragility> (even when you click on 'download)
[06:14] <jetscreamer> try ./installerthingy
[06:14] <dr_willis> Fragility,   for what video card? most intel cards are allredy included.
[06:14] <the_fury_> I get an MD5Sum mismatch fetch error for literally every package I've attempted to install

[06:15] <Fallenou> 3.JPG
[06:16] <the_fury_> I am getting an MD5Sum mismatch for every package I attempt to install
[06:16] <MaddMaxx> I have Ubuntu installed on hdb, but I cannot see hdb from Computer at all.
[06:16] <the_fury_> any ideas?
[06:16] <MaddMaxx> Any ideas?
[06:16] <crolle17> jetscreamer, option -i means ignore case
[06:16] <magnetron> any ideas?
[06:16] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: what do you mean, "cannot see hdb"?
[06:16] <neztiti> any one know where to put the softcam in the vdr??
[06:17] <MaddMaxx> I mean I cannot view it at all through the GUI.
[06:17] <crolle17> jetscreamer, does it searches in subdirectories too?
[06:17] <dr_willis> MaddMaxx,   try the 'mount' command and see whats mounted where.
[06:17] <MaddMaxx> How do I do that?
[06:17] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: view what, exactly? the filesystem?
[06:17] <Gnea> aaaah
[06:17] <Gnea> you need a newbie guide then
[06:17] <MaddMaxx> View the filesystem, add/remove files, etc.
[06:17] <MaddMaxx> Fuck that. ^-^
[06:18] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: can you open a web browser?
[06:18] <MaddMaxx> Yes.
[06:18] <crolle17> lol
[06:18] <magnetron> !language | MaddMaxx
[06:18] <ubotu> MaddMaxx: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:18] <MaddMaxx> Everything runs and my other hds look fine.
[06:18] <Fallenou> kitche < 3.JPG
[06:18] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: uh, no. we wrote such guides so that we don't have to repeat ourselves.
[06:18] <MaddMaxx> Gnea: it good exercise.
[06:19] <MaddMaxx> And if I check my drives with mount, it shows that /dev/hdb1 and /dev/hdb2 are there
[06:20] <dr_willis> MaddMaxx,  and where does it show them mounted TO?
[06:20] <MaddMaxx> But only hdba stuff shows up in Computer.
[06:20] <MaddMaxx> Ohh, that's a good question, one moment.
[06:20] <dr_willis>  /me wonders if this is the .hidden thing that was in Dapper Drake ...
[06:20] <MaddMaxx>  / type ext3
[06:21] <dr_willis> maddler,  if its mounted to / - then you are using it.. its the root drive..
[06:21] <kitche> Fallenou:you have it as root (hd0,1) that loosk wrong
[06:21] <dr_willis> oops wrong nick. :0
[06:21] <dr_willis> MaddMaxx, ,  if its mounted to / - then you are using it.. its the root drive..
[06:21] <MaddMaxx> Well, hrmm.
[06:21] <Fallenou> kitche < what looks wrong ?
[06:21] <dr_willis> MaddMaxx,   You are thinking in windows drive letter terms. :)
[06:21] <MaddMaxx> I cannot see it in computer though and it isn't automounting to the desktop like the other drives/partitions.
[06:22] <MaddMaxx> Noo, Im trying not to.
[06:22] <Fallenou> root is /boot i think in grub, so (hd0,1)
[06:22] <Fallenou> kitche < anyway root (hd0,1) works for other kernels :o
[06:22] <MaddMaxx> I like my numbered hds ^-^
[06:22] <densin> hi all. I install dovecot-pop3d , how I set it start ever time it reboot
[06:22] <MaddMaxx> Still though, if it's mounted, why can I not view it from Computer?
[06:22] <dr_willis>  MaddMaxx  if hdb1 is mounted to / - then its mounted to /   you are allready seeing it. if you want to see the root directory of it  go to '/'
[06:23] <dr_willis> MaddMaxx,   theres  no need for it to have an entry in /media/  since its above /media/ its / :)
[06:23] <mat1980> densin: update-rc.d
[06:23] <MaddMaxx> hrm, one moment.....
[06:24] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: each partition is going to be mounted to its own mount point, somewhere within the root / heirarchy (instead of c: d: e: drives and so on, you get one / filesystem and can add drives onto it in subdirectories)
[06:24] <lllllll> How do I stop GNOME hiding files from me? According to WineFile, there's a whole load of extra folders in my home folder which I can't see normally
[06:24] <mat1980> MaddMaxx: http://www.freeos.com/articles/3102/
[06:24] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: are you trying to read a usb flashdrive?
[06:25] <MaddMaxx> no.
[06:25] <GigaClon> lllllll, Ctrl+H in the file browser
[06:25] <MaddMaxx> Just regular physical internal harddrives.
[06:25] <Gnea> lllllll: dot files (files that have a . in front of them) are hidden by default. there's something in the system configuration to change that
[06:25] <MaddMaxx> okay, I see what you mean.
[06:26] <MaddMaxx> Hdb can be found in /dev/
[06:26] <lllllll> Ah, I see. Cheers
[06:26] <enrique> how can i deactivate compiz fusion?
[06:26] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: /dev/hdb is just the device file that linux uses to talk to the drive - you don't want to mess with those files directly
[06:26] <MaddMaxx> How do I make it so it also in /media?
[06:26] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: what for?
[06:26] <MaddMaxx> Or rather, viewable in /media, like my two paritions of hda?
[06:26] <MaddMaxx> So I can use it like I can use my two partitions of hda?
[06:27] <navets> does anyone know of a good php editior I can use for error checking?
[06:27] <shifoe> you have to mount it
[06:27] <shifoe> to see it in media
[06:27] <MaddMaxx> exactly.
[06:27] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: that makes no sense at all, whatsoever.
[06:27] <MaddMaxx> And I've been trying to figure out how to do that via command line for the last half hour shifoe.
[06:27] <shifoe> ic
[06:27] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: they're already mounted and running the OS, so they're already mounted - you can't remount them while they're already mounted :)
[06:27] <MaddMaxx> Yes, any ideas?
[06:28] <MaddMaxx> If they are mounted, why can I not see them in "Computer" or mount them so they are viewable on my desktop?
[06:28] <shifoe> im guessing you've tried 'mount /dev/hdb' ?
[06:28] <killux> is there any fix
[06:28] <mat1980> MaddMaxx: please, read the article I've posted. You will understand, and we will save time.
[06:28] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: they're there, you just have to make sure you're browsing the / of the filesystem
[06:28] <MaddMaxx> which article?
[06:28] <mat1980> MaddMaxx: http://www.freeos.com/articles/3102/
[06:28] <killux> is there any fix for the snd_hda_intel sound problem
[06:29] <killux> that fixes the headphones too
[06:29] <Gnea> MaddMaxx: and yes, read what mat1980 gave you. very good article. read the entire thing before asking another question, please.

[06:40] <Gnea> bartzitz: what laptop do you have?
[06:40] <exel> was?
[06:40] <bartzitz> i don't have 'hibernate' command, is it from some package?
[06:40] <Skycloud> johndoc: Nvm I just pressed tab after real, and it typed it for me
[06:40] <AlexC_> endo: then add & at the end of the command, and stop trying to get peoples attention,
[06:40] <bartzitz> Gnea: samsung X40+
[06:41] <yondie> johndoc, it means it`s related to the hardware part
[06:41] <AlexC_> endo: sorry, name looked similar to exel
[06:41] <Gnea> bartzitz: there is no 'hibernate' command anywhere
[06:41] <Edulix2> yondie: ok so it was a typo in the wiki ;)
[06:41] <Edulix2> yondie: if you have a wiki user there please edit it
[06:41] <Edulix2> yondie: and the directory i386 doesn't exist either, it seems the structure of the debian/ directory has changed... is there any updated howto anywhere?

[06:42] <happywithed> I need to replicate an ldap server and move it from one fiesty box to another.  Any ideas how to do that?

[06:43] <johndoc> I use crossover to play it
[06:43] <Gnea> bartzitz: i gave you that URL so you could make it work. if you're unwilling to follow those directions, then you'll never get suspend to work. it's that simple.
[06:43] <Sherlock> cedegaa would be a good move
[06:43] <Skycloud> johndoc: Doesn't that cost money though >.<?
[06:43] <magnetron> i need to run a command in terminal repeatedly, to keep an eye on the results. any commands that will do this for me?

[06:44] <Hamish> Hello,
[06:44] <bartzitz> Gnea: i've read it and will follow the directions, no doubt, just needed a cli command to make debugging easier (maybe?) and just to have a cli option
[06:44] <Sherlock> hey hamish
[06:44] <ibanex> magnetron: watch <command>
[06:44] <Hamish> I was looking at a guide for setting up midi on the Ubuntu Forums.
[06:44] <johndoc> Skycloud...yeah...it has a fee
[06:44] <magnetron> ibanex: thank you
[06:44] <Skycloud> magnetron: I'm there there right now, It doesn't tell you how to run WoW
[06:44] <Hamish> But it was using words like "ismod"
[06:44] <Gnea> bartzitz: so what's stopping you from seeing what files the hibernate package installed?
[06:45] <Hamish> So I didn't really get it..

[06:45] <bartzitz> Gnea: nothing, just revealed that this package exists at all, will check it now
[06:45] <Skycloud> johndoc: How do I check?
[06:45] <Hamish> Ahh, nevermind! I read it wrong.

[06:51] <daved> is there a unix command to run another command but timeout after X amount of time if it's not done?
[06:51] <killux> im on an ubuntu live cd and im trying to remove a module
[06:52] <killux> but it saying its busy
[06:52] <killux> how can i remove it?
[06:52] <Gnea> killux: make it unbusy
[06:52] <Gnea> killux: what module?
[06:52] <killux> snd_hda_intel
[06:52] <dave_> thanks
[06:52] <killux> how can i find out what processes is using it
[06:52] <Gnea> killux: blacklist it and reboot
[06:52] <killux> so i can kill them
[06:52] <killux> blacklist?
[06:52] <Gnea> !blacklist | killux
[06:52] <ubotu> killux: 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 
[06:53] <killux> will that apply for the live cd though
[06:53] <Sherlock> no
[06:53] <Gnea> oh, the livecd... no... i think there's a nosound argument you can pass at boottime?
[06:53] <killux> yea but i want to test the sound
[06:53] <killux> cause its not working
[06:54] <Gnea> did you fiddle with the mixer?
[06:54] <KISSklas> how do i change a searchpath for an exe??
[06:54] <killux> Gnea its a module problem
[06:54] <Gnea> killux: how do you know?
[06:54] <newtubuntu> finished a Feisty installation, but my partitions don't mount. I created /, and /home (on a separate partition). It doesn't mount.
[06:54] <killux> because its the classic snd_hda_intel problem
[06:54] <killux> im trying to load with a model like auto or 3stack
[06:55] <Gnea> i have a snd_hda_intel and it works just fine
[06:55] <Gnea> PEBKAC

[06:56] <talonzz> hello all question on wine
[06:56] <talonzz> if i may
[06:56] <killux> is it the exact same model Gnea ?
[06:56] <Gnea> no, but close enough
[06:56] <killux> feisty?
[06:56] <Gnea> you have to make sure the mixer settings don't have it muted
[06:57] <Gnea> killux: it's also possible that it loaded drivers for your modem - cat /proc/asound/cards
[06:57] <killux> its not muted according to alsa mixer
[06:57] <Gnea> are you sure it's the right card?
[06:58] <Gnea> if the modem got installed, then you likely have 2 alsa devices
[06:58] <killux> whats your cat /proc/asound/card output
[06:58] <killux> i do
[06:58] <Artemis3> i have a problem starting the livecd with an acer travelmate 527TXV BusyBox fails and casper.log shows /cdrom failed help?
[06:58] <killux> wait
[06:58] <Gnea> see, that's the problem
[06:58] <killux> hold on
[06:58] <killux> what do you mean by two devices
[06:58] <Gnea> 0: 1:
[06:58] <killux> can i see your output so i can compare
[06:59] <Gnea>  0 [I82801CAICH3   ] : ICH - Intel 82801CA-ICH3
[06:59] <Gnea>  1 [Modem          ] : ICH-MODEM - Intel 82801CA-ICH3 Modem
[06:59] <torpedo|dog> I've got a problem. Nautilus is taking up 100% CPU time.

[06:59] <Paddy_EIRE> killux, lspci in a terminal then pastebin it
[06:59] <Gnea> killux: see, i had to make it so that the modem loaded second
[06:59] <killux> hold on let me get on my laptop so i can show you guys
[07:00] <Gnea> killux: whatever alsa module detects first, it takes the 0 position, which is the default soundcard
[07:00] <Fxgl> Can you compile PPC binaries on a i386 system, if so, is there any comprehensive guides on the subject?
[07:00] <Paddy_EIRE> Fxgl, have you tried searching on google or the ubuntu forums
[07:00] <killux_> hey

[07:01] <killux_> no
[07:02] <Gnea> killux: try plugging them in, i had a problem once where i couldn't hear sound and something was blocking it on an external output

[07:03] <killux_> xmms
[07:03] <Gnea> ok
[07:03] <killux_> is there a safer way to test the sound
[07:03] <Gnea> do you have a /dev/dsp file?
[07:04] <Gnea> killux: yes
[07:04] <killux_> i have that file
[07:04] <Gnea> ok, kill xmms and run this: cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp
[07:04] <Gnea> should sound like snow on a TV

[07:13] <Whitor> Hi... I'm using this guide: http://vorian.org/?p=82, and I'm having trouble with the step adding the KEY. This command keeps telling me "permission denied": KEY=81836EBF; gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv $KEY && gpg --export --armor $KEY | sudo apt-key add -     Is there an easier way to add a key? or is this formatted for something other than a shell ?
[07:13] <Gnea> killux_: check this out: http://cilaes.blogspot.com/2007/05/ubuntu-704-feisty-toshiba-sound.html
[07:14] <Skycloud> pike_: I get errors like err:imagelist:ImageList_ReplaceIcon no color! when i do that
[07:14] <killux_> thats what i tried to do
[07:14] <killux_> but i cant remove the module
[07:14] <pike_> Skycloud: i have not idea sorry. ive only used wine for basic stuff.
[07:15] <Gnea> killux_: ok, try this: sudo lsof | grep libasound
[07:15] <gharz> guys, i've just installed Kompozer on wine... can somebody help how to uninstall this?
[07:15] <Gnea> killux_: any results?
[07:15] <gharz> should i just delete the folder?
[07:15] <Paddy_EIRE> Skycloud, have you tried winehq
[07:15] <c_lisp> how do you mount a sd memory stick?
[07:15] <Skycloud> Paddy_EIRE: I
[07:15] <Skycloud> Paddy_EIRE: I'm there right now reading

[07:16] <flavioribeiro> there's a way to know if the hard disk is sci, ata or sata without open it? just seeing a txt or conf file
[07:16] <fuzzy_logic> Whitor: are you using sudo?
[07:16] <flavioribeiro> there's a way to know if the hard disk is scsi, ata or sata without open it? just seeing a txt or conf file
[07:16] <Gnea> flavioribeiro: read the dmesg
[07:16] <Whitor> fuzzy_logic:  Even when I use sudo it does the same thing
[07:17] <killux_> Gnea: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27448/
[07:17] <farcl0ud> how do i make windows transparent?
[07:17] <Ix01> I read on the ubuntu wiki not long ago of a driver for sis/via unichrome graphics to get drivers for it does anyone know the drivers name?
[07:17] <pike_> Skycloud: might /join #winehq  and ask there as well. cant hurt
[07:17] <Music_Shuffle> farcl0ud, in Beryl?
[07:17] <Whitor> fuzzy_logic: It doesn't look like a properly formed shell command to me ... but I'm not really sure ...
[07:17] <Paddy_EIRE> farcl0ud, in what WM
[07:17] <Fxgl> Allright, searching around made me no wiser, so I guess it is out of my grasp.
[07:18] <Gnea> killux_: lol, esd is running
[07:18] <Gnea> killux_: killall -9 esd
[07:18] <Whitor> KEY... what command is that?
[07:18] <fuzzy_logic> Whitor: what i understand from that guide, you want to install compiz.. but compiz is already installed on ubuntu..
[07:18] <Paddy_EIRE> Fxgl, which app are you trying to port anyway
[07:18] <fuzzy_logic> Whitor: go to System > Preferences > GL Desktop
[07:18] <lllllll> I can't move or delete a file because ubuntu tells me I don't have permissions for it's parent folder. How do I change this?
[07:18] <Whitor> fuzzy_logic: no, that guide is for Compiz-fusion
[07:18] <fuzzy_logic> Whitor: oh :$ what's that? lol
[07:19] <Gnea> killux_: and a ton of other apps.... gah, i think you'd need to start the livecd in command line mode to enable sound at this point
[07:19] <Whitor> fuzzy_logic: I'km trying to put the merged compiz / Beryl version on this machine
[07:19] <killux_> shit
[07:19] <lllllll> the file's in home/
[07:19] <pike_> lllllll: what folder is that? you usually want to use sudo or gksu nautilus    changing permissions under / isnt that great in idea
[07:19] <fuzzy_logic> Whitor: ahh ok
[07:19] <Fxgl> some game named supermariowar
[07:19] <killux_> maybe ill just install debian
[07:19] <Gnea> !language | killux_
[07:19] <ubotu> killux_: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[07:19] <pike_> lllllll: lol nm
[07:19] <Gnea> killux_: yeah, that blows
[07:19] <Whitor> fuzzy_logic: the prob is loading the key
[07:19] <killux_> compile the the latest kernel
[07:19] <killux_> and then try to fix it from there
[07:19] <Whitor> what kind of a command is that in the ADD KEY step of the guide ?
[07:20] <fuzzy_logic> Whitor: i really don't know what you should do.. i'm sorry.. maybe someone else?
[07:20] <lllllll> cheers pike_, I'll have a go at that. Obvious really; I'm still learning ubuntu
[07:20] <Whitor> fuzzy_logic: thanks !
[07:20] <Paddy_EIRE> Fxgl, you do realise that there are already native  linux versions of that game
[07:20] <Fxgl> for a ppc?
[07:21] <Whitor> Can someone help me with this command: KEY=81836EBF; gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv $KEY && gpg --export --armor $KEY | sudo apt-key add -
[07:21] <Fxgl> the .deb package gives me errors about architechture mismatch or something

[07:22] <magnetron> Jamesinator: du df
[07:22] <Whitor> Jamesinator: df
[07:22] <Gnea> flavioribeiro: not necessarily. SATA uses a SCSI layer
[07:22] <Fragility> because it says the name of my graphics card but says the capabilities are unknown, and is going very slowly
[07:22] <Jamesinator> Thank you.
[07:23] <Fragility> the computer is running ubuntu significantly slower than it was on xp...
[07:23] <Paddy_EIRE> rfordinal_athome, Im sure there is a how to in the forums
[07:23] <c_lisp> anybody know how to detect sd/mmc cards on ubuntu?
[07:23] <flavioribeiro> Gnea, can u see? http://rafb.net/p/q4i7yy57.html
[07:24] <pike_> Jamesinator: df -h   makes it a bit more readable for us mere humans
[07:24] <Jamesinator> pike_: Thanks, I know, I was reading the manpage on it
[07:25] <Gnea> flavioribeiro: looks like it's a SCSI - not many 73gig SATA drives AFAIK
[07:25] <rfordinal_athome> Paddy_EIRE: all is about manually install - download manually, modify scripts, etc... I gentoo i haved just entered "emerge ut2004-xymod" for example. is here none repository for games?
[07:25] <craigbass1976> How can you tell which version of php is installed on a box?  I did php --version, but got nothing. Is this because php is not an executable, or because I don't have

[07:26] <Jamesinator> craigbass1976: If you can run php, try making a file called "info.php" with the contents: "<?php phpinfo(); ?>" and then do "php info.php | more"
[07:26] <Boglizk> Assassyn: Gaim should do fine
[07:27] <kitche> Boglizk: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[07:27] <farcl0ud> um... sorry for the late response... uh... gnome is my WM?
[07:27] <fuzzy_logic> Assasyn: pidgin
[07:27] <Boglizk> kitche: Thanks
[07:27] <Paddy_EIRE> rfordinal_athome, I dont think that there is an Unreal Tournament repo... thats a commercial game right
[07:27] <Paddy_EIRE> rfordinal_athome, the install process seems simple enough
[07:27] <farcl0ud> so how do i make windows transparent in gnome?
[07:27] <Paddy_EIRE> rfordinal_athome, for a gentoo user it should be a breeze :)
[07:28] <craigbass1976> Jamesinator, command not found.  I didn't think I ever installed php, but wasn't sure
[07:28] <Paddy_EIRE> farcl0ud, in what window manger compiz, beryl
[07:28] <nickrud> craigbass1976, there's a variety of php packages; aptitude search php5 will give you a list. And yes, there's no php
[07:28] <nickrud> craigbass1976, automatically installed
[07:28] <Fragility> what is a command to look at graphics properties?
[07:28] <Jamesinator> craigbass1976: sudo apt-get check php5 <-- I think?
[07:29] <rfordinal_athome> Paddy_EIRE: yes, I know, I have ut2004 purchased :)) before i have installed Kubuntu, in Gentoo i have installed ut2004 and other mods just with one command and entering original DVD into CDROM. i think that Ubuntu is more userfriendly
[07:29] <Jamesinator> craigbass1976: sudo apt-get install php5 <-- if you want to install it instead of checking if you have it
[07:30] <pike_> Fragility: can you be more specific?
[07:30] <farcl0ud> whats beryl?
[07:30] <Jamesinator> !beryl
[07:30] <ubotu> beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[07:30] <Paddy_EIRE> rfordinal_athome, then there must be a similar process for ubuntu, have you checked there website Epics' that is
[07:30] <farcl0ud> !beryl
[07:30] <pike_> farcl0ud: do a search on youtube for demos :) its eyecandy
[07:31] <rfordinal_athome> Paddy_EIRE: when I install ut2004 manually in Kubuntu, my adept can't inform me about new version. okay, i continue with finding :) thanx
[07:31] <Paddy_EIRE> no pobs
[07:32] <dr_willis> rfordinal_athome,  thats what happens with manual installs.
[07:32] <Assassyn> hey
[07:32] <Fragility> my intel extreme graphics card is showing up as unknown, and going extremely slowly
[07:32] <Assassyn> got a problem
[07:32] <dr_willis> rfordinal_athome,  unless ya found a deb package.
[07:32] <Assassyn> i want sto install vmware
[07:32] <MDM686> is this the official Ubuntu IRC chat?
[07:32] <Assassyn> but it asks me to remove xinetd
[07:32] <Fragility> essentially, this computer (not the one I am one, my notebook) is running more slowly on ubuntu than xp
[07:32] <Assassyn> and i use it for swat
[07:32] <Fragility> which is the last thing I was expecting
[07:32] <Paddy_EIRE> farcl0ud, http://www.beryl-project.org/  and  http://compiz.org/
[07:32] <gursikh> Hey you guys know on macs the iphoto software you can quickly,easily make a slideshow to music with stupid fancy effects pretty easily? Is there something like that I can use on ubuntu to make those picture slideshows ?
[07:32] <dr_willis> Assassyn,  ya could always start swat manually.
[07:32] <Jamesinator> MDM686: Topic: Official Ubuntu Support Channel
[07:33] <rfordinal_athome> dr_willis: deb package with install process?
[07:33] <Fragility> and I just installed ubuntu studio
[07:33] <xarann> both gnome and kde are way slower than xp's explorer
[07:33] <MDM686> ok thanks hard to see with this client ;)
[07:33] <orbisvicis> how do you create python bindings for gtkglext, from source ?
[07:33] <Assassyn> dr_willis: start manually?
[07:33] <xarann> linux with an extensive graphical interface is in no way built for performance
[07:33] <esses> anyone have any experience trying to get ubuntu installed on to an existing raid array (promise IDE)
[07:33] <dr_willis> Assassyn,  yes.. you can start swat manually when you need it. (which is proberly rarely)
[07:33] <Paddy_EIRE> xarann, must be the way you have it setup
[07:33] <Assassyn> how?
[07:34] <dr_willis> Assassyn,  a read of the swat docs will tell ya the proper command. I perfer to NOT use swat any more. its a big.. OLD and outdated in ways.
[07:34] <dr_willis> bit old. :)
[07:34] <Fragility> ok, let me put it this way, how do I make it so device manager is aware of my video cards capabilities?
[07:34] <Paddy_EIRE> xarann, and its not explorer that xp uses its luna
[07:34] <jackers> hola
[07:34] <dr_willis> Assassyn,  the command may be 'swat'  for all i rember.
[07:34] <_Johny> Which groups I should be in to lauunch the X server?
[07:34] <Assassyn> and what r u using then?
[07:34] <HorizonXP> hey
[07:35] <xarann> wtf is luna
[07:35] <xarann> is that a specific theme for explorer?
[07:35] <Paddy_EIRE> google
[07:35] <pike_> Fragility: grep Driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf   does it say i810?
[07:35] <dr_willis> xarann,  yes.
[07:35] <luisbg> what's the gnome alternative for k3b?
[07:35] <xarann> thought so
[07:35] <dr_willis> Assassyn,  i have read/learned to configure samba how i wanted by editing the samba.conf file. I dont need a gui. :)
[07:35] <Paddy_EIRE> its not a theme
[07:35] <dr_willis> !info samba-doc
[07:35] <ubotu> samba-doc: Samba documentation. In component main, is optional. Version 3.0.24-2ubuntu1.2 (feisty), package size 6754 kB, installed size 14512 kB
[07:35] <Assassyn> kewl
[07:35] <Assassyn> :)
[07:35] <kitche> luisbg: gnome baker is probably as close as your gonna get
[07:35] <dr_willis> Assassyn,  the samba doc pckage has several books on the topic.
[07:36] <pike_> luisbg: gnomebaker but while its ok its not quite k3b
[07:36] <Fragility> I went to packet manager and just got a newer version of i810
[07:36] <esses> hello?

[07:36] <HorizonXP> i have these two packages that i've recompiled myself with some patches, but Ubuntu keeps wanting to update them, leaving that icon in my tray; how do I exclude those packages from being updated?
[07:36] <esses> anyone have any luck installing ubuntu onto a raid set?
[07:36] <luisbg> why is gnomebaker not included by default in ubuntu?

[07:36] <SFX-Bladerunner> I just used Wubi-7.04.01.exe to install ubuntu on a 250gig SATA disk (for 10gig) and I run windows XP on another 60gig ATA drive. when I reboot, I get a screen to select which OS to boot, and when I select ubuntu, I get a screen saying its booting something.. and then it sits there still
[07:37] <SFX-Bladerunner> can anyone help me?
[07:37] <Assassyn> esses: you got into truble with raid?
[07:37] <kitche> luisbg: it's not part of gnome that's why
[07:37] <pike_> luisbg: nautilus provides cd writing support out of box
[07:37] <esses> assassyn.... yeah
[07:37] <luisbg> pike_, iso burning?
[07:37] <HorizonXP> anyone?
[07:37] <esses> the installer sees the raid controller and drives just fine... but as 2 separate drives it doesn't recognize the striped set
[07:37] <pike_> luisbg: yeah. though i dont use nautilus much so not sure of the interface
[07:37] <MaddMaxx> When I try to mount my hard drives, which are ALL currently unmounted, by using the "mount" command, I get the response:"mount: only root can do that".

[08:01] <Kaff> I got a problem. My STLab USB2Lan adapter is detected and works like a dream when I run Live CD, but fail to be detected when I install and boot Ubuntu from my hd. Can someone help me?
[08:02] <mopey> I don't think so.  You maybe could use a vm, but the easiest would probably just be to burn a disk.
[08:02] <Jamesinator> Is there a way to set a "max size" for a directory?
[08:03] <jaro> I got the following error-message while trying to insert the newly build driver syntek for my webcam:insmod: error inserting 'stk11xx.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module   .. what can I do ?
[08:03] <SFX-Bladerunner> blah
[08:03] <SFX-Bladerunner> so now I have to reinstall NERO aswell lol
[08:03] <SFX-Bladerunner> or does anyone know a quick free/easy to get program to burn discs?
[08:03] <macfreak> hi! I have a question, can Ubuntu be installed on a macbook with intel duo core?
[08:03] <Jamesinator> SFX-Bladerunner: Isn't a CD/DVD burner included with Ubuntu?
[08:03] <imbecile> SFX-Bladerunner,  k3b
[08:03] <pike_> SFX-Bladerunner: k3b is better than nero in linux imo
[08:04] <instabin> SFX-Bladerunner: there are plenty of them in the package manager
[08:04] <jaro> Hi, i have a question: what can I do to fix the following errormessage : insmod: error inserting 'stk11xx.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module  ??
[08:04] <ericgold> hi everybody. Noob here with a question re sound that has stoppped working.
[08:04] <instabin> SFX-Bladerunner: automatix can install some for you also
[08:04] <SFX-Bladerunner> guys
[08:04] <SFX-Bladerunner> I mean
[08:04] <imbecile> !automatix
[08:04] <SFX-Bladerunner> burn the ubuntu disc in windows
[08:04] <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
[08:04] <pike_> SFX-Bladerunner: brace yourself when its done burning though. that trumpet scares the hell out of me every time
[08:05] <Jamesinator> SFX-Bladerunner: AVS disc creator or CD mate
[08:05] <Jamesinator> They're crappy but free
[08:05] <imbecile> pike_,  i love the trumpet
[08:05] <macfreak> hi! I have a question, can Ubuntu be installed on a macbook with intel duo core?
[08:06] <jaro> Hi, i have a question: what can I do to fix the following errormessage : insmod: error inserting 'stk11xx.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module  ??
[08:06] <imbecile> macfreak,  should be ok

[08:06] <Tawanda> i installed a bittroent client but its not in the applications menu of ubuntu,where is it?????
[08:06] <macfreak> Thanks Imbecile. will try to do that, is it the same installer CD i got from Ubuntu? can't find the package downloadable on the site.
[08:06] <Jamesinator> Jaro: You've said that three times already within 5 minutes. Read the guide to asking questions in the topic, would you please?
[08:06] <jaro> i built it with make
[08:06] <trelayne> hi all. anyone know how to figure out what IPtables rule is stopping a packet?
[08:07] <Kaff> I got a problem. My STLab USB2Lan adapter is detected and works like a dream when I run Live CD, but fail to be detected when I install and boot Ubuntu from my hd. Can someone help me? I already tried $sudo modpobe usbnet
[08:07] <macfreak> trelayne, usually for windows, is using netstat -r to see the rules and the ip routings.
[08:07] <Jamesinator> Tawanda: Applications->Internet should have it. If not, right click on "Applications" and select "Edit Menus". There you can navigate to Apps->Internet and enable the BitTorrent item.
[08:07] <pike_> Tawanda: not all packages setup launchers for ya but to check do 'pkill gnome-panel' it might re-appear with the link
[08:08] <nomux> jaro: look at the makefile, is there a section 'install'?
[08:08] <Tawanda> cheeres pike
[08:08] <imbecile> macfreak,  I know very little about macs but i believe you use the ppc one.. dont quote me on that though
[08:08] <jaro> there is a section: driver
[08:08] <vuka> Hi, i have a question. Im getting an error when i try to verify the ubuntu cd, version 7.04. It says there is error in 2 files. How do i fix it?

[08:08] <Jamesinator> vuka: Reburn.
[08:08] <BigAl99> hi. I'm considering buying a dell inspiron 1720... anyone know how compatible the hardware is? I've searched the usual sites but nothing is coming up (probably because the lappy is so new). thanks
[08:08] <macfreak> Thanks imbecille. Will try that out on the CDs Ubuntu sent me. Cheers!
[08:08] <mortal5> is there any way to connect to a ubuntu desktop using window's "remote desktop"

[08:09] <Jamesinator> Is there a way to set a "max size" for a directory?
[08:09] <BigAl99> nothingssomethin, yes! :)
[08:09] <nomux> jaro: you could copy the driver to the right place, then depmod -a and modprobe ...
[08:09] <jaro> where would the right place be ?
[08:09] <nothingssomethin> sry... just makin sure
[08:09] <BigAl99> Jamesinator, you could use user quotas to achieve that
[08:09] <imbecile> macfreak,  well did they send you an x86 or ppc disk?
[08:09] <BigAl99> if you set a limit on the home dir, for example
[08:09] <nothingssomethin> am i in the right place for this question??
[08:09] <Jamesinator> vuka: Try burning at a lower speed, and make sure to enable "verify burned data"
[08:10] <astevens> mortal5: maybe use vnc instead?
[08:10] <BigAl99> nothingssomethin, i have answered your question :)
[08:10] <spirit_> why is port 2207 and 2208 open on Ubuntu?
[08:10] <imbecile> macfreak,  if the cd boots up then you have  the right one
[08:10] <vuka> Jame: thanks.
[08:10] <mortal5> ...and no, I don't have access to vnc lol
[08:10] <SFX-Bladerunner> im trying to create a partition on my 2nd HD (windows not installed on it), but in partition magic it says ''this partition crosses the 1024 cylinder boundary and may not be bootable" ?

[08:22] <kyle123> does anyone know the command to start the Ubuntu GUI installer from the command prompt ? i had to reconfigure the graphical driver and it leaves me at the prompt screen for command
[08:22] <Xraven92> does partion magic delete data that is on the hard drive?
[08:22] <Ramon> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:22] <Ramon> kyle
[08:22] <imbecile> Xraven92,  it can
[08:22] <Ramon> kyle: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:23] <wols> Xraven92: we dom't know. ask the makers of partition magic
[08:23] <Aldoliel> Xraven92, If you tell it to, yes
[08:23] <tiiimos> pike_: still there ? :P
[08:23] <wols> Xraven92: this is a ubuntu only channel

[08:23] <imbecile> Xraven92,  what are you trying to do? a dual boot?
[08:23] <pike_> tiiimos: yeah
[08:23] <kyle123> Ramon: i did that and i selected the right driver and it leaves me at the command prompt, i need to restart the installer after i select the driver but how ?
[08:23] <nomux> jaro: did you install: linux-source-2.6.20 ?
[08:23] <wols> Ramon: hoary is not supported anymor IIRC
[08:23] <jaro> i think so
[08:24] <jaro> linux-headers-2.6.20-16-generic is already the newest version.
[08:24] <wols> kyle123: /etc/init.d/gdm start
[08:24] <Ramon> man the thing is that it is the only one that works for me... tried debian, ubuntu, ubuntu-lite, xubuntu etc and all of them are giving me errors during the installation
[08:24] <Xraven92> imb: yea i want to dual boot windows and ubuntu
[08:24] <imbecile> wols,  i think Xraven92 is trying to do a dual boot
[08:24] <wols> kyle123: if you have installed ubuntu there is no isntaller anymore and it's not needed
[08:25] <wols> imbecile: and? I don' care. pmagic is a WINDOWS program. does this look like a windows channel?
[08:25] <Xraven92> when i tried partioning with the installer, i got an error

[08:25] <kyle123> wols: i havent gotten to the installer yet, because of the graphical error, and i did the reconfigure already but need to start the installer from the command prompt, will that command work ?
[08:25] <wols> kyle123: use the alternative install CD

[08:36] <kane77> ponty, doesnt it hide after a while?

[08:36] <wietz0r> wols: How would it work then ?
[08:36] <wols> phsyical access trumps everything
[08:36] <wols> and you need phys access to boot in single user mode
[08:37] <ponty> kane77: no
[08:37] <nerdygirl_ellie> csea: Did it give any error message or just die or lock up or?
[08:37] <wietz0r> wols: One could just boot up in single user mode and it would start up ?
[08:37] <ZummiG777> Thanks!
[08:37] <ponty> csea: try gl or gl2...might work better
[08:37] <wols> wietz0r: yes

[08:38] <cookie> all of them
[08:38] <wietz0r> wols: It does infact trump everything, but comeon that's not even trying

[08:38] <cookie> Set them to default
[08:38] <wols> wietz0r: uf you can rbboot a machine and ahve access to the console, no OS security in the world will help you

[08:41] <Van_Slanzar_Fane> Bug here: Using Ubuntu x64 and Mozilla Firefox. Flash Player doesn't support x64, and other Flash Plugins either don't work or the Embed vid (at Youtube) appears with a glitch, where the bar you use to play/pause is placed in the middle of the video, instead of the bottom, and the video simply doesn't play at all. It could be a problem with Java, but it's most likely a problem with the flash plugin. Any tutorials or plugin recomme
[08:41] <Van_Slanzar_Fane> ndations (other than gnash and klash, which I've already tried, and the flash plugin, which's only x86) would be greatly appreciated.
[08:41] <ponty> nerdygirl_ellie: yeah, i can do that...i'm just wondering why it doesn't disappear like when i use totem
[08:41] <nerdygirl_ellie> nuked_omen: yes you can, it is under edit -Preferences, the second folder tab, bottom checkbox
[08:42] <tal> hello
[08:42] <nuked_omen> nerdygirl_ellie: ahh, thanks a lot
[08:42] <cookie> nickrud: so u got it now?
[08:42] <nerdygirl_ellie> nuked_omen: I would leave it on, but that is me.
[08:42] <nerdygirl_ellie> nuked_omen: I am a clutz. :D
[08:43] <wols> Van_Slanzar_Fane: nspluginwrapper or a 32bit ffox
[08:43] <nuked_omen> nerdygirl_ellie: it doesn't get deleted even if i save the file.. besides, i know what i'm doing, i don't need the computer to save a copy.. but that is me
[08:43] <Van_Slanzar_Fane> wols, Thanks, gonna try that.

[08:44] <Spud__> Hello people.  I just installed Ubuntu 7.04 64bit on my machine, and everything is working great. However, I have two internal hard drives, and I want to format the second unused HDD and put a swap partition on it.  Can anyone tell me how I might go about that?
[08:44] <nerdygirl_ellie> nuked_omen:  ... and I am a klutz. :)
[08:45] <dezine> wols I don't know what card it is.. it's a dell laptop. Doing the command says "device not found".
[08:45] <nickrud> cookie, ok, you need to log out, and go to a virtual terminal (clt-alt-f1) login there, and then delete the following directories: ~/.gconf/apps/metacity/keybindings_commands ~/.gconf/apps/metacity/windows_keybindings ~/.gconf/apps/gnome-settings-daemon/keybindings
[08:45] <nuked_omen> nerdygirl_ellie: if you do the right-click > properties > open with tab, it should remember

[08:45] <nerdygirl_ellie> will try again.
[08:45] <ericgold> Sound problem fixed !! I find a great troubleshooting guide on hte ubuntu web site called https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting
[08:45] <nuked_omen> there is an option button you should check
[08:45] <ponty> nerdygirl_ellie: you have to use the 'add' button in that tab if open office isn't already listed
[08:46] <ericgold> bye all
[08:46] <wols> dezine: it won't say device not found
[08:46] <LyleM> Spud__: do you really need a swap partition?

[08:46] <nerdygirl_ellie> A klutz is a person that does clumsy things.
[08:46] <wols> dezine: does your PC have two network interfaces?

[09:00] <jaro> ther kernel
[09:00] <unsightfull> hmm hmm
[09:01] <nerdygirl_ellie> jaro: why!?
[09:01] <jaro> i read that i should od
[09:01] <jaro> do
[09:01] <wols> jaro: wrong way
[09:01] <unsightfull> Is that supposed to be a problem?
[09:01] <gdb> signal 1, sighup, hangup signal
[09:01] <hellie87> humh
[09:01] <wols> jaro: install build-essnetial and kernel-package. use kernel-package to compile it
[09:01] <jaro> Cd Repertory where the sources of the core are 2.6.20 sudo make oldconfig sudo make prepares sudo make
[09:01] <hellie87> what is g++ ;o?
[09:01] <unsightfull> yes I know about signals :-)
[09:01] <Skycloud> How do I take screen shots with linux?
[09:01] <gdb> hellie87: GNU C++
[09:01] <jaro> but that gives this error message
[09:01] <Skycloud> I want to show my friend what it looks like
[09:01] <hellie87> aha
[09:01] <wols> unsightfull: have you actually isntalled sendmail?
[09:01] <unsightfull> I have
[09:01] <nerdygirl_ellie> Skycloud: Printscreen, or if you want a movie, run istambul.
[09:01] <sanotehu> Hi guys, I've been unable to start X and not really sure why, I suspect it's because of some packages that Aptitude incorrectly considered "unused" and uninstalled. I'm running Ubuntu from the liveCD, is there any way I can use this to change the packages on my hard drive?
[09:01] <mann> skycloud, application->accessories->take screenshot
[09:01] <hellie87> cause i seem to need it for c++ compiling :(
[09:01] <kane77> niekko, I did.. it doesnt work.. I had followed the guide before and installed apache and mysql and php... but now it doesnt work...
[09:01] <newtubunt1> what's the role of the WINS server and how do I know if I already have one on the network ?
[09:02] <WaxyFresh> Skycloud: if you want to impress them try google videos and beryl
[09:02] <Skycloud> mann: Where does the ss save at?
[09:02] <wols> jaro: that is still the wrong way to make an ubuntu kernel
[09:02] <unsightfull> via apt-get install sendmail
[09:02] <mann> it asks you where to save
[09:02] <jaro> hm ok
[09:02] <WaxyFresh> Skycloud: search beryl + ubuntu on google vids
[09:02] <jaro> i got kernel-package now
[09:02] <nerdygirl_ellie> newtubunt1: a wins server is used for netbios name resolution in a windows network.
[09:02] <wols> knightwse: "doesnthat's work"
[09:02] <niekko> Skycloud: GIMP also can be used.
[09:02] <VSpike> newtubunt1: nerdygirl_ellie beat me to it.
[09:02] <wols> kane77: "doesn't work" is an eminentlys useless error description
[09:02] <jaro> would that be a new kernel that i would have to boot from ?
[09:03] <recoy^> hello!!!!!!!!!!
[09:03] <VSpike> newtubunt1: there are several ways windows does name resolution for networking.  NetBIOS, DNS, WINS, LMHOSTS
[09:03] <wols> sanotehu: you can but you don't need. to boot via hdd and sue the console
[09:03] <WaxyFresh> wols: anything i could try?i know its not suported but i need to get it to work before i can burn a newer version
[09:03] <niekko> kane77: Also the troubleshooting section?
[09:03] <wols> WaxyFresh: noacpi, nolapi, noapic
[09:03] <sanotehu> wols, I haven't figured out how to connect to the internet through the recovery console
[09:03] <WaxyFresh> wols: thanks
[09:04] <wols> sanotehu: no recovrey console needed
[09:04] <VSpike> newtubunt1: NetBIOS works without a server (uses broadcasts) but is not routable, hence they created WINS server to solve the problem.  They are deprecated now.  Windows has moved away from NetBIOS/WINS to Active Directory, which is DNS with extensions
[09:04] <sanotehu> wols, what do you mean "sue the console"?
[09:04] <nerdygirl_ellie> newtubunt1: you need one if your windows network ( (contains pc's before windows 2000) and (broadcast name resolution is disabled)) or ((your windows  network spans multiple sites) and (you don't have a netbios helper, sort of a broadcast name resolution forwarder))
[09:04] <wols> sanotehu: and before you do anything, check WHY it's not wroking anymore. check your Xorg.log
[09:04] <kane77> wols, it wouldnt parse the php files and instead it wants to save them.. I have installed libapache2-mod-php5 and tried a2enmod php5.. it only says that there is no such mod :(
[09:04] <wols> sanotehu: I mean use the console. if X cannot start you will get a console
[09:05] <sanotehu> wols, where is xorg.log?
[09:05] <unsightfull> hmm hmm
[09:05] <knightwse> Hey wols ! just wanted to say thanx for your help on my smb mounting prob yesterday
[09:05] <kane77> niekko, been there done that... still nothing...
[09:05] <wols> kane77: dpkg -l |grep apache
[09:05] <VSpike> newtubunt1: Older systems can be configured to use DNS for name resoltion as well, if that's helpful
[09:05] <unsightfull> sendmail also says there it can't get a valid hostname
[09:05] <wols> sanotehu: /var/log (on the harddisk)
[09:05] <unsightfull> is that a problem? :o
[09:05] <nerdygirl_ellie> VSpike: but not to locate a domain controller.
[09:05] <UbuntuServerUser> I'm trying to mount a samba share using the command "sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=test //media/server /dev/hdb1" and I get the error 958: Connection to media failed SMB connection failed
[09:05] <wols> unsightfull: do you have sendmial installed? or postfix?
[09:05] <unsightfull> sendmail
[09:06] <kane77> wols, http://pastebin.ca/592389
[09:06] <sanotehu> wols, I've got an Xorg.0.log, same thing?
[09:06] <VSpike> nerdygirl_ellie: true.
[09:06] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: wth are you doing?
[09:06] <nerdygirl_ellie> UbuntuServerUser: shouldn't that be \\media\server?
[09:06] <UbuntuServerUser> oops
[09:06] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: is you /dev/hdb1 mounted? if so: where?
[09:06] <recoy^> can anyone help me install http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-ubuntu.html
[09:06] <nerdygirl_ellie> wols: Trying to mount, really mount not nautilus mount an smb share.
[09:06] <wols> nerdygirl_ellie: no. it shouldn't be that at all, but the forward slashes are right
[09:06] <magnetron> recoy^: use synaptic instead
[09:07] <UbuntuServerUser> its mounted in /media/server
[09:07] <wols> recoy^: vlc is in ubuntu
[09:07] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: answer my question please
[09:07] <lagrimo> i would like to start glipper and gDesklets on startup. but when I try both I receive the error: http://www.ubuntuusers.de/paste/12189/
[09:07] <recoy^> magnetron: i have snaptic installed but it still wont work
[09:07] <VSpike> nerdygirl_ellie: IIRC you can do \\\\media\\server but the forward slashes are easier
[09:07] <lagrimo> and the session stops
[09:07] <UbuntuServerUser> wols: its mounted in /media/server
[09:07] <lagrimo> any idea?
[09:07] <recoy^> wols: where is vlc in ubuntu?
[09:07] <ChrisF> hi
[09:07] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: and you want to make it available to anothe PC (windows or samba)?
[09:08] <UbuntuServerUser> wols yes
[09:08] <magnetron> recoy^: in Add/remove applications, search for vlc
[09:08] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: if so, edit your smb.conf and make it available. then on the OTHER PC mount it or connect to it
[09:08] <nerdygirl_ellie> UbuntuServerUser: oh, I see... you are trying to share a drive, not mount one. :)
[09:08] <ompaul> recoy^, applications sound & video vlc
[09:08] <nerdygirl_ellie> UbuntuServerUser: silly me
[09:08] <UbuntuServerUser> yea
[09:08] <ChrisF> I wanted to install Ubuntu in a dual boot but I need to resize my windows partition.  I thought I could do that with the ubuntu installed but I don't see how.  When it comes up with the partitioning options, I have Use Whole Disk as a choice or manual.  How do I do it?
[09:08] <recoy^> ompaul: i must not have it installed yet
[09:09] <UbuntuServerUser> wols: so the guide here https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/server/C/configuring-samba.html#windows-networking-clients is wrong in saying I should use smbfs?
[09:09] <newtubunt1> VSpike:  thank you. All I want is a simple way of sharing and networking:  my new Ubuntu with:  2 XP laptops and 1 OS X desktop
[09:09] <wols> ChrisF: defrag your windows drive in windows, then run gparted on the LiveCD
[09:09] <VSpike> UbuntuServerUser: "man smb.conf" is pretty informative
[09:09] <jaro> :(
[09:09] <VSpike> newtubunt1: if they are all on a single network, you dont need wins.
[09:09] <jaro> no webcam
[09:09] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: no that h owto is right. you are incapable of reading it properly
[09:10] <nerdygirl_ellie> ChrisF: gparted can do it, or you can run the demo version of partition magic.  Don't run PM if you have any existing linux partitions that you want to keep.
[09:10] <orbisvicis> !checkinstall
[09:10] <ubotu> checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running!
[09:10] <recoy^> magnetron:  there no VLC in add/remove
[09:10] <UbuntuServerUser> wols propbably, thought it was pretty straigh foward guess its not written to be newbie friendly
[09:10] <UbuntuServerUser> thanks guys
[09:10] <wols> "Local mounting of remote network resources using the SMB protocol is also possible using the smbfs program." is what it says and then tells you how
[09:10] <sanotehu> wols, at the end I get some error-looking statements like "Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc, removing from list!" I don't know what to do about that though.
[09:11] <wols> UbuntuServerUser: all you need to do si edit your smb.conf and restart samba on that server now
[09:11] <VSpike> recoy^: "sudo apt-get install vlc" will work I think#
[09:11] <recoy^> magnetron: xfmedia, kino, kaffiene
[09:11] <nerdygirl_ellie> wols: he's gone.
[09:11] <wols> sanotehu: either show me all, or don't bother

[09:15] <Spud__> Okay, now I have my swap file on a separate partition on the out edge of a different physical disk, but I left with an empty space where the swap partition used to be on my main hard disk.  How can I merge that with the rest of my main partition?
[09:15] <fuzzy_logic> tux0: download the gparted iso and boot from it, otherwise you can't expand it in ubuntu itself
[09:15] <fuzzy_logic> tux0: np
[09:16] <nerdygirl_ellie> recoy^: great, open it and go to settings -> repositories.
[09:16] <recoy^> nerdygirl_ellie: ok im there

[09:20] <nerdygirl_ellie> recoy^: Ahh.  I see.  mkay, here's what you need to do, and I can't walk you through it unfortunately.  You have to figure out how to enable the "universe" package repository.  That's where you get community maintained software for ubuntu.  Once that is set, you should be able to get vlc.
[09:20] <mcquaid> I have samba working on two boxes if i specify the ip, but neither shows up automatically in network

[09:25] <Whitor> jrib: thanks... I asked already in #ubuntu-effects and it seems a pretty dead channel right now
[09:25] <Skycloud> jrib: not sure
[09:26] <jrib> Skycloud: is there data on it?
[09:26] <Skycloud> jrib: I think so, I tried install ubuntu on it once, but it didnt work so I just made it a slave
[09:26] <intelikey> what's the command that's used to generate the origenal xorg.conf ?   the automatic one ?
[09:26] <jrib> Skycloud: k, let me rephrase, is there data you care about on it?
[09:27] <Skycloud> jrib: no
[09:27] <Skycloud> jrib: I havn't put anything on it yet lol
[09:27] <jrib> Skycloud: install gparted and format it as ext3, then put it in your fstab
[09:27] <jrib> !fstab > Skycloud (see the private message from ubotu)
[09:27] <Scunizi> intelikey, it's listed in the top lines of your xorg.conf file.
[09:28] <Skycloud> jrib: and how would i do all that lol
[09:28] <intelikey> Scunizi not mine :(
[09:28] <Skycloud> jrib: nvm
[09:28] <intelikey> Skycloud care to share it with me ?
[09:28] <recoy^> if i upgrade from dapper to fiesty will i lose everything i have done to dapper?
[09:28] <jrib> Skycloud: yeah, gparted is a gui, it should be straighforward.  And fstab I sent you some intstructions for, but you can ask questions if you're not sure about something
[09:28] <Skycloud> !fstab > intelikey
[09:28] <mcquaid> wols, plz look at http://www.pastebin.ca/592433.  Can't figure out where the HOME valube is being set.
[09:28] <Scunizi> intelikey, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[09:29] <intelikey> Skycloud not fstab
[09:29] <Skycloud> intelikey: then what?
[09:29] <kyle123> ok im trying to install Ubuntu with the alternate install cd, im at the partitioning part and it is telling me that "no root file system is defined" how do i define the root file system ?

[09:30] <DigitalNinja> Anyone have any thoughts on Intel video? I just got a new system with an Intel motherboard. I don't like the video.
[09:30] <Skycloud> jrib: k
[09:30] <Scunizi> intelikey, so you want it to happen automatically?  the line was taken directly from my xorg (Dapper)
[09:30] <jrib> Skycloud: make sure you only mess with your slave drive, don't format the drive ubuntu is on ;)
[09:30] <kyle123> How do you define the root file system in the partitioner on the alternate cd ?
[09:31] <DigitalNinja> kyle123: /
[09:31] <intelikey> Scunizi that's not it   i mean the one that ubiquity uses
[09:31] <Overcast> ladies and gents
[09:31] <Jack_Sparrow> doctor_zoidberg: k3b will burn or if you have an iso right click and send to burner
[09:31] <Overcast> there doesnt happen to be a redhat style service command in ubuntu now does there
[09:31] <Overcast> eg
[09:31] <Overcast> service servicename restart
[09:32] <doctor_zoidberg> Jack_Sparrow, i dont have a burner...like i said i dont have burning capapbilities
[09:32] <Skycloud> jrib: k
[09:32] <Scunizi> intelikey, sorry I don't know that one.. just the one listed in xorg. The listing in xorg was auto generated on install.
[09:32] <iratik_> Changing mouse cursors doesn't help
[09:32] <kyle123> DigitalNinja what do you mean exactly ? just hit " / " on that partition ?
[09:32] <Jack_Sparrow> ah sorry

[09:34] <doctor_zoidberg> guys can someone help me....i jst installed dapper on this machine and i dont have any cd burning capabilities...i'm trying to upgrade to edgy and then eventually feisty but whenever i run sudo apt-get update i get some GPG errors?
[09:34] <kyle123> DigitalNinja: yes i have windows vista installed on one of the partitions that i dont want to touch
[09:35] <DigitalNinja> Oh
[09:35] <Overcast> doctor_zoidberg: make sure you are using the appropriate apt servers and distribution servers
[09:35] <Overcast> doctor_zoidberg: repo's thats what they're called oi memory is horrible
[09:35] <stefg> doctor_zoidberg: consider skipping edgy (update is troublesome) and install Feisty from an usb stick (as outlined in !install)
[09:35] <DigitalNinja> kyle123: Before you do anything make sure you defrag windows first.
[09:35] <shigutso> anybody knows how to Minimize "Wine Desktop"??
[09:36] <DigitalNinja> kyle123: My laptop dual boots Windows XP and Feisty
[09:36] <DaveG|> anyone know where i can get an amd64 deb of VLC 0.8.6c? for some reason if i try to get the build-deps it just won't get the deps.......
[09:36] <Uncensored> xterm and command
[09:37] <kyle123> DigitalNinja alright i will do that first, nice that is what im trying to accomplish by doing this lol, but how would i set the root system ?
[09:37] <Teknine> Hello, Im new to ubuntu and have just installed feisty fawn, can anyone help me getting the restricted formats installed?
[09:37] <eXistenz> Where can I get the fglrx 8.28 package for ubuntu?

[09:37] <DigitalNinja> kyle123: Wait! Did you put Windows on a small partition or the whole drive?
[09:37] <AbeeL> hello, i have problems with virtualbox, libqt3c102-mt
[09:38] <AbeeL> anyone?

[09:38] <dfgas> arghh, anyone know how to get kde4 installed on ubuntu?
[09:38] <bb__> identify 654
[09:39] <intelikey> well that's it.  but i don't know exactly what to try.    the laptop is in a startup loop  1. it boots normally, 2. gdm starts,  3. it automatically login the admin user.  4. gnome starts and gets all the way to the welcome sound then resets xorg.   repete from step 2
[09:39] <kyle123> DigitalNinja how would i set up the root in the manuel partition part ?
[09:39] <Skycloud> dfgas System>Administration>Synpatic Package Manager
[09:39] <AbeeL> hi, can you help me? i can install virtualbox in my ubuntu
[09:39] <Skycloud> dfgas: Then search for kde4 I think, and it installs itself
[09:39] <Gothfunc_> AbeeL: well done :D
[09:39] <AbeeL> i can`t
[09:39] <Gothfunc_> ;)
[09:40] <AbeeL> excuse me..
[09:40] <DigitalNinja> kyle123: I need to know if you put Windows in a small partition or if you have windows on the entire drive.
[09:40] <UbuntuServerUse1> I have a simple question, I'm trying to delete media/server (I created it) with rm -f /media/server and it says : rm cannot remove `/media/server': Is a directory how I remove it?
[09:40] <DigitalNinja> kyle123: If you do this wrong you could loose data
[09:41] <kyle123> DigitalNinja: there are 2 partitions on my laptop 1 and 2 vista is installed on 1, the other one (2) was just blank and i had installed a few games and put some files on it, then i used Vista to take the free space on parition 2, to make partition 3 while running vista and partitioning at the same time lol
[09:41] <intelikey> and the keyboard is useless in the console.  i did however manage to access the console   that's one step in the right dirrection.
[09:41] <DigitalNinja> kyle123: Okay
[09:41] <AbeeL> heeeeelp ...
[09:41] <intelikey> howto reconfigure or reset the console keyboard ?
[09:41] <DigitalNinja> kyle123: Just boot the alternate CD and do a manual partition
[09:42] <DigitalNinja> kyle123: Make sure you can see all the partitions. Select the one you want to install ubuntu on and mark it as the / partition
[09:42] <UbuntuServerUse1>  I have a simple question, I'm trying to delete media/server (I created it) with rm -f /media/server and it says : rm cannot remove `/media/server': Is a directory how I remove it?
[09:42] <DigitalNinja> kyle123: Don't forget you need a Swap partition
[09:42] <kyle123> DigitalNinja: ok, but it is telling me that no root is defined and it only lets me pick, the file type like fat32 and a bunch of others, also i can mount, make bootable and thats about it.
[09:42] <intelikey> i pressed [alt]   for the alt+sysRQ+r  but alt prints   888888888888888888
[09:43] <UbuntuServerUse1> !patience | UbuntuServerUse1
[09:43] <heroin> Hey how can i save or copy paste a irssi log or chat ?
[09:43] <DigitalNinja> kyle123: You might need to delete the partition and then create a new one
[09:44] <DigitalNinja> kyle123: Make sure you have space for swap
 do rmdir
[09:44] <UbuntuServerUse1> thanks
[09:44] <intelikey> DigitalNinja why do you stress "swap space" ?
[09:44] <kyle123> DigitalNinja: DigitalNinja: whats size should the swap partition be ? i have a 10gb for Ubuntu.
[09:44] <DaveG|> .... can anyone help me with finding a ubuntu deb for vlc 0.8.6c?
[09:45] <DigitalNinja> intelikey: I don't think he has a swap partition
[09:45] <intelikey> DaveG|  http://packages.ubuntu.com
[09:45] <DigitalNinja> kyle123: How much RAM do you have?
[09:45] <DigitalNinja> kyle123: I make mine 1G
[09:45] <kyle123> DigitalNinja: i have 2gb ram
[09:45] <intelikey> DigitalNinja i dont think he needs one...  your point ?
[09:45] <DigitalNinja> intelikey: All linux systems need a swap partition
[09:46] <intelikey> DigitalNinja hmmm  for what ?
[09:46] <DigitalNinja> intelikey: It's like virtual ram or the windows paging file
[09:46] <antonio__> dfd
[09:46] <DigitalNinja> intelikey: The same reason windows needs a paging file
[09:46] <DaveG|> intelikey, ... that's not 0.8.6c... it's only 0.8.6a
[09:46] <intelikey> DigitalNinja but it's not used hardly at all.   and i never use one.
[09:46] <Skycloud> jrib: Ok I formated the slave now what
[09:47] <DigitalNinja> intelikey: When you run out of ram your system will stop working
[09:47] <bobgill> How can I change how long my password gets stored after I enter it?
[09:47] <intelikey> DigitalNinja no it wont.  that's what the  OONK call is for in the kernel
[09:47] <DigitalNinja> intelikey: if you have swap and you run out of ram your system will slow down but keep running
[09:47] <intelikey> oomk
[09:47] <Mr_Gogo> :)
[09:47] <Mr_Gogo> good evenin'!
[09:48] <newtubunt1> I've setup file sharing and changed my domain name on Ubuntu, etc. in such a way that I can now add a network place (in XP) pointing to my share Ubuntu disk. XP sees Ubuntu since it prompts for a user name and password for authentication. But when I enter my user name and password, the little login windows flashes and prompts me again as if it refused my Ubuntu user name and password.  Why is that ?
[09:48] <Mr_Gogo> anyone using ubuntu here? :)
[09:48] <adam0509> I use Ubuntu
[09:48] <DigitalNinja> intelikey: I don't know about the 00NK call. What is that?
[09:48] <Skycloud> Mr_Gogo: umm this is ubuntu channel isnt it..
[09:48] <adam0509> of course we're in #ubuntu, so...
[09:49] <sanotehu> wols, no luck, apt-get told me the packages were already installed and I still can't use X
[09:49] <Mr_Gogo> umn.. yeah.. actually it is... :)
[09:49] <intelikey> oomk = out of memory kill
[09:49] <Mr_Gogo> cheerz
[09:49] <Mr_Gogo> :)
[09:49] <Skycloud> Mr_Gogo: We don't use ubuntu we just sit here and talk about it for entertainment ^.^
[09:49] <pepe_> lol
[09:49] <adam0509> X is sooo bad : too heavy, too complicated...
[09:49] <Mr_Gogo> Skycloud:  that was i wanted to hear :)
[09:49] <gilo2> quick question, is there anything special you have to do to remove a usb flash drive when you're done using it like on a windows machine?
[09:49] <intelikey> DigitalNinja it's one of the many thing about linux that makes it more stable. more solid.
[09:50] <vmbrussel> The gnome copy pop up box needs options. It should allow you to specify if you want to verify there's room ahead of time for one. Another should be a display of the number of files and folders to copy along with the total capacity and estimated speeds.
[09:50] <sanotehu> gilo2, right-click, choose "unmount"
[09:50] <Skycloud> Mr_Gogo: Its called sarcasm you know that right?
[09:50] <Mr_Gogo> yep :)
[09:50] <yehweh> Mr_Gogo: And help ppl with problems with xp ;)

[10:03] <Mr_Gogo> yea.. cursin' won't help :)
[10:04] <Gothfunc_> i have copied files (a website) over a samba network.  ls shows the files, but apache serves an internal server error.  when recreated, all the files and dirs work fine.  why is this happening?  how can i cure files without recreating them (arduous with lots of files)
[10:04] <mwe> sanotehu it's complaining about missing /dev/wacom could you paste xorg.conf?
[10:04] <sanguisdex> pike_: I was looking at that there is no command prompt option in the open w/ list

[10:04] <PriceChild> apogee, lets calm down and get back on topic please :)

[10:04] <PriceChild> askand, #ubuntu-bugs if no-one can help here :)
[10:05] <killor> NE1 HLP??
[10:05] <Mr_Gogo> apogee: i apologyze. go on!
[10:05] <Mr_Gogo> ;)
[10:05] <Slyp> Coldopm,  i have a black screnn after ubuntu lauch
[10:05] <sanotehu> mwe, er, sorry but where's xorg.conf kept?
[10:05] <ubuB0nk3rs> killor  - whats up?
[10:05] <Mr_Gogo> .    /etc/X11
[10:05] <mwe> sanotehu /etc/X11
[10:05] <Mr_Gogo> always been there
[10:05] <Coldopm> Slyp so u cant even get to the install part of it?
[10:05] <Slyp> Coldopm, i allready do the manual partition
[10:05] <Mr_Gogo> brb to get some beer
[10:05] <killor> First, I lost a whole lot of options from the Administrator bar
[10:05] <killor> then
[10:05] <Tanner> mwe: i already have all the libstdc++ libraries in /usr/lib; any ideas?
[10:05] <Lord_Drachenblut> sanotehu: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:05] <killor> I can't su
[10:06] <Syntux> How to list all running process with its dependencies ?
[10:06] <Skycloud> yehweh: how do I know if I set it up right?
[10:06] <sanotehu> http://pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org/27474/
[10:06] <killor> then when I use the 'network-admin' program to modify something it says sudo won't let me run shell from root.
[10:06] <Coldopm> Slyp so no errors? just black screen?
[10:06] <thirso> Does anyone use BANSHEE to transfer music to a mp3 player?
[10:06] <intelikey> Mr_Gogo yeah it's been there for the last three or four years hasn't it  :)
[10:06] <apogee> PriceChild : my question is this.I need the X server to be configured with my specific Nec Mutlisync 75 F monitor ,or its frequncy range.
[10:06] <ubuB0nk3rs> killor.. did you remove a package before this occured?
[10:06] <thirso> Does anyone use BANSHEE to transfer music to an mp3 player?*
[10:06] <apogee> Pricechild : how can i do this ?
[10:06] <killor> well, I did the network-admin thing before
[10:06] <Slyp> Coldopm,  yes but after lauching (with the logo and the waiting "barre") black screen
[10:06] <PriceChild> apogee, have you gone through "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[10:06] <Mr_Gogo> yeah
[10:06] <Mr_Gogo> :)
[10:06] <killor> then, it stopped working
[10:07] <ompaul> !sudo | Kill_X
[10:07] <ubotu> Kill_X: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:07] <Mr_Gogo> ubuntu is a good start though
[10:07] <Mr_Gogo> :)
[10:07] <killor> it gave me an error
[10:07] <ompaul> !sudo | killor
[10:07] <mwe> sanotehu tablet pc?
[10:07] <yehweh> Skycloud: it wont mount ;) but let me check and get back to you
[10:07] <ubotu> killor: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:07] <ubuB0nk3rs> killor - network-admin thing? elaborate for me please?
[10:07] <killor> like the 3rd time i tried it
[10:07] <sanotehu> mwe, laptop
[10:07] <Mr_Gogo> i kind'o like it
[10:07] <killor> ok
[10:07] <killor> up top
[10:07] <Skycloud> yehweh: how do I know it wont mount, or that it worked
[10:07] <Slyp> Coldopm, the first time i lauch it it done somting that it dont do anymore
[10:07] <kyle123> what is the correct file system to format my partition to, Fat32 ? or anything along those lines on the list ?
[10:07] <intelikey> anyone know how to reconfigure the keyboard (console not xorg)  ?
[10:07] <killor> System > Administration, when you try to modify Users and Groups for example
[10:07] <Slyp> col changing someting i dont remember -_-
[10:07] <Mr_Gogo> it does even recognize my cannon camera! :)
[10:07] <killor> it asks for the network-admin password to be able to use it.
[10:07] <Mr_Gogo> kewl!
[10:07] <sanotehu> mwe, for the record I have never used a Wacom
[10:08] <Coldopm> Slyp: it sounds to me like you have a GDM problem...Have you tried reinstalling 7.04 on your new partition and seeing if that helps? I mean if there is no crucial data on there then should be quick and painless
[10:08] <Mr_Gogo> canon*
[10:08] <killor> to be able to do it actually.
[10:08] <yehweh> Skycloud: first when you do a mount it will throw an error
[10:08] <Coldopm> slyp if you are familiar with VT1 then maybe there is a faster way to correct it, but I dont want to give you the wrong advice..
[10:08] <Whitor> Hi... Compiz fusion is working fine... but I cant get the Compiz Settings Manager to make any changes.... It runs, (the settings manager) but when I enable or disable anything, nbothing happens
[10:08] <ubuB0nk3rs> killor  - and that somehow borked and you've lost some options in the process?
[10:08] <imbecile> how do i safely remove an external ntfs drive?
[10:08] <killor> also, is anything supposed to prompt after I use "sudo -s"?
[10:08] <killor> yeah
[10:08] <Slyp> Coldopm, ok i will trying to reinstall
[10:08] <yehweh> !mount > Skycloud
[10:08] <intelikey> sanotehu wacom errors are not considered errors by the ubuntu team.
[10:08] <Mr_Gogo> beryl is kindo' a try to fly
[10:08] <mwe> sanotehu well I'd try putting a # at the beginning of lines 73-81 to make it ignore them and see what happens. what's the stylus thing?
[10:08] <intelikey> its a feature
[10:09] <killor> ubu, the error came up and I lost some options of the Administration
[10:09] <Coldopm> slyp GOOD LUCK!
[10:09] <killor> like I'm a regular user
[10:09] <Slyp> Coldopm, it's my first linux intallation ^'
[10:09] <Mr_Gogo> killor: and you're not? :)
[10:09] <yehweh> Skycloud: check pm from the bot
[10:09] <sanotehu> mwe, no idea, I'll try it anyway, have to go offline for a bit
[10:09] <apogee> Prechild  it reports package as NOT installed
[10:09] <killor> I need a stronger uid, or I need to be able to access root, to which I never had the chance to set a password to.
[10:09] <Mr_Gogo> Slyp: reinstall 5 more times and rejoin :))
[10:09] <Whitor> beryl has gone away... Wouldn't it be better to work on compiz-fusion ? (the merger of Compiz and beryl groups)
[10:09] <thirso> Does anyone use BANSHEE to transfer music to an mp3 player?*
[10:09] <mwe> sanotehu comment out those lines and see what happens
[10:09] <Slyp> Mr_Gogo, thx for advise :p
[10:10] <killor> i tried thru prompt, sudo -s, then the password, then no error comes up, but I don't know if it's working after it.
[10:10] <Mr_Gogo> :)
[10:10] <Mr_Gogo> np :)
[10:10] <wols> Mr_Gogo: sudo grep -i workgroup /etc/samba/smb.conf
[10:10] <intelikey> Mr_Gogo i think that's what i'll have to do....  reload to fix the keyboard.
[10:10] <jaro> sh.. ich glaube ich brauchde die LInux-Source
[10:10] <HaSH> !sudo | killor
[10:10] <ubotu> killor: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:10] <Tanner> anyone have any idea why ld would report back "cannot find -lstdc++"
[10:10] <HaSH> killor: try sudo su -
[10:10] <kyle123> when formatting a partition what do i format it as ? LVM, Ext2, Ext3, XFS, JSF, EFI? does it need to be a certain one ?
[10:10] <wols> mcquaid: on all machines running samba

[10:12] <magnetron> !root
[10:12] <ubotu> do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo

[10:14] <Skycloud> yehweh: do I have to do that command every reboot?
[10:14] <Mr_Gogo> newtubuntu: you don't. rtfm!
[10:14] <yehweh> Skycloud: when ever you mount a drive it will have lost and found
[10:14] <intelikey> newtubuntu they will tell you "you don't"    you can but it's not a good idea.
[10:14] <newtubuntu> when I logoff and go to the login window I get an error msg that root is not allowed to login from there...
[10:14] <pike_> newtubuntu: you cant. root accound isnt 'enabled' if it was youd gksu gdmsetup and enable root login though
[10:15] <killor> kk, brb gona restart and try this over/
[10:15] <intelikey> !root > newtubuntu
[10:15] <yehweh> you can add it to /etc/fstab and it will do it on every reboot

[10:20] <kane77> Mr_Gogo, I think what I'll do I'll --purge remove apache and then try to install phpmyadmin
[10:20] <tomer> wols: 5.04
[10:20] <ferronica> how to download DELUGE for ubuntu Fiesty Fawn GNOME
[10:20] <mcquaid> wols both boxes report workgroup = WORKGROUP but I know I have that in both already
[10:20] <kyle123> intelikey: which ones would be better to go with, i dont knwo what the journalized means exactly
[10:20] <wols> tomer: not supported anymore. gone. done for
[10:20] <mwe> newtubuntu then gksudo run the programs you need root access to. don't run your entire session as root
[10:20] <intelikey> kyle123 for larger drives journalizing is generally considered a good idea.  thus ubuntu defaults to ext3
[10:20] <wols> kane77: usr/share/phpmyadmin/index.php that is what you call in the browser. not some strange phtml
[10:20] <mcquaid> when using smbclient, that is reported as the domain
[10:21] <tomer> so i cant get any packages?? but my linux is working. it would suck to have to reintall evertyhing
[10:21] <wols> kane77: and that is straight fromt he ubuntu phpmyadmin package which is the only one we support here basically
[10:21] <kane77> wols, the same response...
[10:21] <wols> tomer: you should have upgraded before.
[10:21] <tomer> wols: oh... so now the only solution is a full reinstall?
[10:21] <kane77> wols, wants me to save it...
[10:21] <Kornholijo> !doesn't work J
[10:21] <wols> kane77: remove AND purge all apache packages. then reinstall after this guide:

[10:21] <wols> !Lamp | kane77
[10:21] <ubotu> kane77: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[10:21] <wols> tomer: pretty much yes
[10:22] <charlyburk> i wan't to do a strange thing with ubuntu live cd. I wan't to access remotely to livecd somebody knows how i can do it?
[10:22] <Kornholijo> !doesn't work Jonny|
[10:22] <intelikey> kyle123 it means it has a journal file  keeps all transactions in a journal thus disk scanning and most fs error correcting is much faster.

[10:30] <Nido> IU just notice it's "

[10:30] <sanotehu> mwe, no luck; I also tried following the instructions in the comments of xorg.conf and ran sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg to regenerate the file, but that didn't help either, just screwed up the splash screen... I'm pretty sure the problem must be in the "can't load default font: fixed" error, but at this point I think I might as well just reinstall Ubuntu

[10:35] <bobgill> i can't get the cmd right, what would i type to extract all zip files in current directory to /templates ??
[10:35] <jrib> imbecile: even if you just plug it in, don't do anything with it, and then try to eject right away it says that?
[10:35] <Skycloud> aggiz: crossover most likely can play it
[10:35] <killor> kk sec.
[10:36] <imbecile> jrib,  yes
[10:36] <uberushaximus> Sky: it works great in wine
[10:36] <cafuego> aggiz: vmware won't give you 3d acceleration, crossover or wine will run CS for you *with* 3d acceleration.
[10:36] <recoy^> HELLO!
[10:36] <jrib> bobgill: go to the /templates directory and issue:  for z in /path/to/zip/files/*; do unzip $z; done

[10:37] <jrib> imbecile: if you don't have any programs accessing the contents of the drive (including nautilus showing the files), I don't know.  Try to check bugs.ubuntu.com for bugs or ask again later
[10:37] <charlyburk> aggiz: qemu works very good. and is in the repositories. If you have a processor with virtualization you can use it too...
[10:37] <zax1> any one knows the server and channel for thunderbird and sunbird projects?
[10:37] <apogee> pricechild :hello again

[10:37] <aggiz> wow got many answers ty guys :P

[10:37] <ubotu> recoy^: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[10:37] <jj> bobgill: try 'unzip -d /templates /path/to/zipfile.zip'
[10:37] <HaSH> .....was thinking you had axx.....but not with that user
[10:37] <imbecile> jrib,  thanks
[10:37] <aggiz> so whats best qemu , crossover or wine?
[10:37] <jrib> brk3: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html
[10:37] <intelikey> wols is there a magic sysRQ key list some place ?
[10:37] <brk3> jrib: thanks alot
[10:38] <charlyburk> killor: if you need to chango root pass you need to boot with live cd and edit /etc/shadow
[10:38] <wols> intelikey: ask ##kernel
[10:38] <yehweh> recoy^: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[10:38] <chadeldridg1> I cant get sound to play through my usb headset ... even though everything is set to it in the sounds setup.  Sound still comes from my speakers.
[10:38] <intelikey> on ubuntu.com i meant
[10:38] <jrib> brk3: you might want to   /msg ubotu packaging  for more details
[10:38] <wols> intelikey: I don't use ubuntu so I don't know
[10:38] <iphv37> how do i configure clamav to run without problems?
[10:38] <intelikey> wols smart man.
[10:38] <Bi0s> anybody are tvtuner expert?? pinnacle pctv usb2...pics ok,no sound..
[10:39] <f70> how do you install flock?
[10:39] <bobgill> jrib: ok that worked, but surely there is a simpler cmd ?
[10:39] <intelikey> wols i use it cause they ship it     (dialup)
[10:39] <charlyburk> aggiz: crossover and wine are windows emulators, qemu is like vmware, it simulates a complete machine and you install in it a S.O. Wat do you want to do?
[10:39] <bobgill> jj: it says "cannot create extraction directory" but i have the directory there
[10:39] <tidrion> ati or nvidia?
[10:39] <jrib> bobgill: one isn't apparent to me
[10:39] <tidrion> which works better with ubuntu
[10:39] <recoy^> yehweh: what is the command to check what version i have because i might edgy not dapper
[10:39] <wols> tidrion: nvidia in general with linux
[10:39] <Bi0s> tidrion:both
[10:39] <wols> !version
[10:39] <ubotu> To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[10:39] <cafuego> tidrion: on a 64bit system, nvidia. on 32bit, doesn't matter much.

[10:45] <Jonny|> i think thats it
[10:45] <oupagryse> could someone please tell me how to updat from 4.1 to 7.04?
[10:45] <Jonny|> im new to Ubuntu
[10:45] <wols> oupagryse: reinstall
[10:45] <Bi0s> imbecile: im not expert, but seems something wrong with Your videocard install...
[10:45] <charlyburk> somobody knows how i can remotely install ubuntu? i have a new computer but without screen... nmap says all ports are closed
[10:45] <Jonny|> and driver...is i810
[10:45] <charlyburk> in live cd
[10:45] <uberushaximus> wols, why do that?
[10:45] <wols> Jonny|: ok, then mesa is doing your 3D. other 3D stuff works?
[10:45] <jrib> oupagryse: you should just install a fresh 7.04 since you would need to upgrade one by one and I'm not sure those early repos are still up even
[10:45] <imbecile> Bi0s,  yayyyy i just fixed it after 3 days... yayyyyyy
[10:45] <wols> uberushaximus: do what?
[10:45] <uberushaximus> reinstall
[10:46] <Jonny|> wols, i have no idea this is the only game i play which works for linux
[10:46] <Dekkharyn> Hi! My problem; I tried 7.04 and got the busybox /bin/sh can't access tty problem. I tried break=top, suggested on Forums, no dice. Tried 6.06 LTS, that booted into Ubuntu just fine, but neither Keyboard nor Mouse responded. It's been suggested that I have BIOS issues, but there's no fix I can find in the BIOS nor a BIOS reflash I can do since there are no updates online for it. Please help!
[10:46] <wols> uberushaximus: cause 4.1 is not supported anymore, not even 5.10 is
[10:46] <iphv37> there's my problem!--> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27478/ <-- (i think!)
[10:46] <oupagryse> thanks jrib

[10:46] <Bi0s> imbecile:installed from what source: -restricted drv, or automatix?
[10:46] <uberushaximus> wols, you sould still use update-manager
[10:46] <killor> Next question, I need to setup GTK to setup XChat, because it says my C compiler wont compile executables.
[10:46] <Bi0s> not same
[10:46] <oupagryse> i want to make a linux dotA lan machine

[10:47] <n1co> hey guys
[10:47] <n1co> ive been trying to configure this ubuntu on a vaio
[10:47] <wols> uberushaximus: for updatemanager you need to install one distro after the other. that means he as to install 6.06, 6.10 and 7.04. he's better off reinstalling
[10:47] <n1co> and everything is awsm except i cant get it to work with the FN key

[10:49] <mroc> any help for clamtk (or a better place to look for help)?  virus definitions refuse to update as far as i can tell.
[10:49] <uberushaximus> killor: the latest xchat binary is in the gutsy repos
[10:49] <killor> and where's that? :P
[10:50] <uberushaximus> please hold
[10:50] <cafuego> mroc: clamav has a cron script that does the updating autoagically; a user can't, as they get stored in a system location.
[10:50] <Sergo> anyone know how to raise mouse  accuracy in linux?
[10:50] <iphv37> mroc, i think i'm in the same situation...

[10:52] <charlyburk> Ramon: hello
[10:52] <mroc> cafuego:  ok...that's great if it updates automagically.  i didn't know why the graphical method wasn't updating.  i'll see what happens with the /etc/cron.d/clamav-freshclam thing
[10:52] <killor> which one is it?
[10:52] <Funcoot> Xine-1.1.7
[10:52] <Funcoot> xine-lib-1.1.7
[10:53] <jrib> killor: why aren't you using xchat from the feisty repositories?
[10:53] <cafuego> mroc: it might complain about outdated versions, just ignore that,
[10:53] <Ramon> I need some assistance installing ubuntu... I don't know whats happening but i've been trying debian, and debian based distros like kubuntu, xubuntu, ubuntu-lite etc... and all of them are giving me "debootstrap" errors when doing the "base installation"
[10:53] <killor> xchat comes with ubuntu or something?
[10:53] <cafuego> mroc: You just want main.cvd and daily.cvd to be up to date
[10:53] <jrib> killor: it is in the repositories.  Do you know APT and universe?
[10:53] <brk3> jrib: Im getting an error that it cant find a debian directory.. is there a command to generate this?
[10:53] <killor> nope.
[10:53] <Jonny|> use irssi ;p

[10:54] <charlyburk> bye to eberbody! i will go to take a beer...
[10:54] <cafuego> i don't play 'en on Linux, but I do rip 'em with mplayer and dvdcss
[10:54] <brk3> jrib: from packages.ubuntu.com
[10:54] <Ramon> I need some assistance installing ubuntu... I don't know whats happening but i've been trying debian, and debian based distros like kubuntu, xubuntu, ubuntu-lite etc... and all of them are giving me "debootstrap" errors when doing the "base installation"
[10:54] <mroc> cafuego:  yeah, it did complain about the version being off, but it's saying main.cvd and daily.inc are up to date.
[10:54] <jrib> brk3: what are you rebuilding?
[10:54] <brk3> jrib: amarok
[10:54] <cafuego> mroc: all fine then
[10:54] <aaroncampbell> I had to re-do a bunch of network stuff on my system, and now it seems that samba isn't working quite right.  I can access \\192.168.2.1 from a windows computer, but not \\aaron (which is what I used to use)
[10:55] <jrib> brk3: you know you can just do 'apt-get source amarok'?
[10:55] <aaroncampbell> I've been told it's a WINS problem, but where would I look to handle this?
[10:55] <Funcoot> everytime I try to install something, I get the error saying that a makefile can't be found
[10:55] <Dekkharyn> What's the polite wait before re-asking a question, please?
[10:55] <brk3> jrib: yes but I want to make a couple of changes to the source before I repackage it
[10:55] <jrib> Dekkharyn: wait about 15-20 minutes and repeat
[10:55] <mroc> cafuego:  great!  wish i knew why the graphical frontend (clamtk) was reporting the signatures out of date.   oh well.  thanks for the help.
[10:55] <Ramon> I need some assistance installing ubuntu... I don't know whats happening but i've been trying debian, and debian based distros like kubuntu, xubuntu, ubuntu-lite etc... and all of them are giving me "debootstrap" errors when doing the "base installation"
[10:55] <Dekkharyn> jrib, understood, I'll ask again after another ten minutes then. Thankyou
[10:56] <pike_> Dekkharyn: what was your question?
[10:56] <brk3> jrib: it seems when I run apt-get source -b amarok it generates the debian directory
[10:56] <pike_> see now you can repeat immediately :)
[10:56] <jrib> brk3: right, so once you do that you well end up with an amarok-VERSION directory, cd in there, then issue dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
[10:56] <Dekkharyn> pike_, Hi! My problem; I tried 7.04 and got the busybox /bin/sh can't access tty problem. I tried break=top, suggested on Forums, no dice.

[10:56] <Dekkharyn> e it work?

[11:19] <Andy80> from this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI   I read: The 'fglrx' driver does not support cards earlier than the 9500. This means that my 9250 is not supported by ATI?
[11:19] <cafuego> Andy80: Your 9250 works 100% fine with the open driver.
[11:19] <iphv37> hey, r u ignoring me? clamav seems to affect my pc! it seems to work everytime i open a program, and with some of them, the window do not open!..
[11:19] <cafuego> Andy80: ... which is lucky, as the open driver is of much betetr quality.
[11:20] <CppIsWeird> im having a sound issue (and mic). When i first boot into ubuntu, i have sound, but very soon after booting, eventually nothing will make sound anymore. Can anyone instruct me on how to fix this?
[11:20] <taa> raavi automatix know how to install rpm package !?
[11:20] <Andy80> cafuego: with open driver it works. I know... it's the driver I'm currently using... but I was asking if the propetary driver will work with it :\
[11:20] <Kai-laptop> im looking to buy a pcmcia or pc card wifi adaptor, does anyone have any suggestions to one thats fully supported in linux (not ndiswrapper) that i could get at a decent price at places like ebay?

[11:22] <adv> how can i copy a file from the host to target via ssh?

[11:22] <moonlite> adv: scp file username@hostname:/path/to/folder
[11:22] <raavi> illriginal: You can tell nautilus not to draw the desktop...then, you will not see any icons on the desktop...

[11:23] <unsightfull> how?
[11:23] <adv> moonlite: is the file on the host or the sshed machine?
[11:23] <illriginal> raavi... and it will be reverse-able yes?
[11:23] <adv> *is "file"
[11:23] <pike_> unsightfull: you dont need to remove it just install whatever you want over it
[11:23] <PhynxPhire> I have a Toshiba p105 s921 running Ubuntu 7.04 fiesty fawn, with the latest alsa drivers, And a 82801G ICH7 HDA Intel Sound card, Ive tried everything, and i get absolutely no sound at all.
[11:23] <moonlite> adv: what do you mean?
[11:23] <brk3> jrib: when I run apt-get source amarok is there a way of making it download from the backports respitory rather than the default one?
[11:23] <illriginal> raavi, I'd like to take a screenshot without icons being shown.
[11:23] <kyle123> When Ubuntu is installing how long does it usually take for it to Configure WVDIAL at 75% ?
[11:23] <moonlite> the first argument is the place where the file is and the second where you want to put it
[11:24] <adv> moonlite: scp file (file is on my pc, or on the remote pc)?
[11:24] <moonlite> if the file is on a remote ssh-server ten switch the arguments
[11:24] <unsightfull> @spike allright.. and what if I want to install it on my first partition instead of on my mbr?
[11:24] <luciano> ola
[11:24] <Arenlor> I am trying to turn on desktop effects but it says that the Composite extension is not available
[11:24] <moonlite> adv: think of it this way: scp is like normal cp, except that you also can type ssh-hosts as targets or sources
[11:25] <illriginal> Damn Linux has gotta be more versatile
[11:25] <raavi> illriginal: Then don't put any icons on the desktop, and you can hide volumes through GConf...
[11:25] <unsightfull> :-)
[11:25] <PhynxPhire>  I have a Toshiba p105 s921 running Ubuntu 7.04 fiesty fawn, with the latest alsa drivers, And a 82801G ICH7 HDA Intel Sound card, Ive tried everything, and i get absolutely no sound at all.
[11:25] <illriginal> I thought hiding icons was normal :P
[11:25] <moonlite> adv: the first argument being source and the second being target
[11:26] <brk3> jrib: sorry for the bother ive got it working finally! thanks for the help
[11:26] <adv> k thx
[11:26] <illriginal> raavi, as of now, I have my trashcan icon only on my desktop.
[11:26] <moonlite> illriginal: why would you want to "hide" files on your desktop, and not just move them away from the desktop?
[11:26] <iphv37> none helps me with clamav here? i think it is an ubuntu problem...
[11:26] <moonlite> illriginal: i would guess it just isn't a relevant use case
[11:26] <illriginal> moonlite lol how do I hide my trashcan icon? :P
[11:26] <PhynxPhire> I have a Toshiba p105 s921 running Ubuntu 7.04 fiesty fawn, with the latest alsa drivers, And a 82801G ICH7 HDA Intel Sound card, Ive tried everything, and i get absolutely no sound at all.
[11:26] <illriginal> moonlite... well that sucks.
[11:27] <moonlite> illriginal: oh ok. that was a different something. You will have to tinker with some gconf-settings.
[11:27] <dannyboy79> I have a hard drive icon on my desktop that I can't figure out how to change?
[11:27] <PurpZeY> PhynxPhire: Did you make sure alsamixer is set as your sound output
[11:27] <CppIsWeird> im having a sound issue (and mic). When i first boot into ubuntu, i have sound, but very soon after booting, eventually nothing will make sound anymore. Can anyone instruct me on how to fix this?
[11:27] <moonlite> illriginal: and it hsould be hidden by default so i'm guessing you did something to actually show it at first?
[11:28] <SyPhy> how come when i do commands in xchat they are not working (e.g. whois)
[11:28] <illriginal> yeah moonlite
[11:28] <moonlite> do the oppossite then :)
[11:28] <brk3> PurpZeY: you have to change a value in the registry, would you like me to walk you though it?
[11:28] <killor> ok

[11:29] <Arenlor> farcl0ud install libgtkglext1
[11:29] <PurpZeY> brk3: No worries.
[11:29] <moonlite> killor: in synaptic? then just press apply
[11:29] <yehweh> !paste| farcl0ud
[11:29] <ubotu> farcl0ud: 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)

[11:29] <killor> apply where

[11:29] <farcl0ud> oh, whoops
[11:29] <raavi> illriginal: okay
[11:29] <dannyboy79> brk3: yes please. I wasn't aware of linux having a registry
[11:30] <Arenlor> apt-get install libgtkglext1 in the terminal, or just use synaptic to install it
[11:30] <sarixe> Scunizi: vlc should play them automatically
[11:30] <PhynxPhire> alsamixer is at full volume and unmuted
[11:30] <kyle123> what can i do if my Ubuntu install is stuck on 75% at Configuring wvdial ?
[11:30] <Gunmanic> Hey all :)
[11:30] <Alata> Quick question: what's the command to list currently running programs?
[11:30] <killor> after installing build-essentials i can ./configure whatever I want, correct? without a gcc error?
[11:30] <brk3> dannyboy79: well its more a gnome registry.. first press alt-f2 and type gconf-editor
[11:30] <chohmann> alata: ps
[11:30] <DavidCraft> when I installed ubuntu I had in my xorg.conf a synaptic driver.  I installed a patch for my video display (to get it to display in wide screen). Now all of a sudden, the synaptics driver is not there.  How do I fix this?
[11:30] <Scunizi> sarixe, it doesn't .. it tries but gives an error ffmpeg error: av_open_input_stream failed
[11:30] <PurpZeY> PhynxPhire: Have tried amplification?
[11:31] <dannyboy79> brk3:  I figured that's what you were talking about, got it open
[11:31] <PurpZeY> Guess he didn't want the forum I found
[11:31] <brk3> dannyboy79: now go to apps->nautilus->desktop
[11:31] <moonlite> killor: it doesn't really work that way. You'll have to have all dev-packages for all dependencies for the program you are trying to compile
[11:31] <sarixe> Scunizi: try fiddling with your codec and output settings
[11:31] <dannyboy79> brk3: ok
[11:31] <sarixe> but now i gotta go
[11:31] <CppIsWeird> im having a sound issue (and mic). When i first boot into ubuntu, i have sound, but very soon after booting, eventually nothing will make sound anymore. Can anyone instruct me on how to fix this?
[11:31] <brk3> dannyboy79: and uncheck the value 'volumes visible'
[11:31] <Scunizi> sarixe, thanks.. I'll try that.
[11:31] <Arenlor> anyone know why desktop effects is claiming that Composite extension is not available?
[11:31] <moonlite> killor: however, i'd like to kow why you are trying to compile a program in the first place?
[11:31] <Alata> chohmann: Thanks. :-)
[11:32] <kyle123> what can i do if my Ubuntu install is stuck on 75% at Configuring wvdial ?
[11:32] <gilo2> is there a GUI for IPSec?
[11:32] <Gunmanic> One quick question: How do I kill the X server, I'm Running Xubuntu
[11:32] <killor> I was trying to compile XChat, but it's in the repositories, so I can get it installed through there I'm guessing.
[11:32] <dannyboy79> brk3: why is that? I'll do it but I would just like an explaination
[11:32] <farcl0ud> kewl, thank you arenlor
[11:32] <gordonjcp> Gunmanic: ctrl-alt-backspace?
[11:32] <PurpZeY> Gunmanic: ctrl-alt-bksp
[11:32] <Gunmanic> tried that but it still boots X in the background
[11:32] <dannyboy79> brk3: WOW, they are all gone.
[11:32] <brk3> dannyboy79: it will hide the hard drive icon on your desktop, that is what you want no?
[11:32] <moonlite> killor: what irc-client are you using now?
[11:32] <dannyboy79> brk3: no, I want to change a name of 1 of them.
[11:32] <PurpZeY> kyle123: You mean the install of wvdial freezes or ubuntu freezes completely on install?
[11:33] <kyle123> ctrl + alt +backspace does nothing :(
[11:33] <Gunmanic> I just want pure Terminal, trying to install Nvidia driver
[11:33] <Jonny|> lol
[11:33] <brk3> dannyboy79: oh.. sorry! then think you need to change the mount point in /etc/fstab
[11:33] <killor> the one that comnes
[11:33] <killor> GAIM
[11:33] <PurpZeY> kyle123: There is a CLI line, I think it's like killall x or something like that. I'm sure someone can clarify.
[11:33] <Gunmanic> PLz, anyone
[11:33] <moonlite> killor: that would be xchat (or a special version of xchat called xchat-gnome)
[11:33] <dannyboy79> brk3: nope, mount is correct but it's showing me some weird name
[11:34] <chohmann> Gunmanic: ctrl+alt+f1. ctrl+alt+f7 to get back to x
[11:34] <dannyboy79> brk3: it's showing as DRV8_VOL1. really strange?
[11:34] <killor> oo
[11:34] <Arenlor> anyone on here know about Desktop Effects?
[11:35] <fuzzy_logic> Arenlor: what do you want to know??
[11:35] <brk3> dannyboy79: ya thats kind of strange alright
[11:35] <Gunmanic> ok I did that, and the installer still says X is running
[11:35] <brk3> Arenlor: you need to go to #ubuntu-effects
[11:35] <Arenlor> fuzzy_logic, it's claiming that the Composite extension is not available
[11:35] <ParanoyaM> guys, i have a trouble with iptables
[11:35] <dannyboy79> brk3: any suggestions?
[11:35] <gilo2> does anyone know if they make an IPSec GUI / application?
[11:35] <ParanoyaM> iptables v1.3.6: can't initialize iptables table `-tee': Table does not exist (do you need to insmod?)
[11:35] <ParanoyaM> Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.
[11:35] <brk3> dannyboy79: is it called something completely different in /etc/fstab?
[11:35] <lllllll> If I say "sudo apt-get install [xxx] ", where is the specified program downloaded to?
[11:36] <CppIsWeird> im having a sound issue (and mic). When i first boot into ubuntu, i have sound, but very soon after booting, eventually nothing will make sound anymore. Can anyone instruct me on how to fix this?
[11:36] <brk3> lllllll: /usr/bin usually
[11:36] <lllllll> cheers
[11:37] <fuzzy_logic> Arenlor: a little googling brought me to this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=446442
[11:37] <dannyboy79> brk3: it's wrong under Places also. but when I look in /dev/disk/by-label there is only 1 symlink pointing to that drive's device id which is /dev/hdb1. do you think I can just delete that symlink?
[11:37] <ParanoyaM> what wrong in this command? sudo iptables -t mangle -p udp --dport 50138 -A OUTPUT -s 10.0.1.21 -d 234.0.0.1 -j ROUTE --oif eth0 --tee
[11:37] <dannyboy79> brk3: I actually just noticed this now!!! this might be the solution I hope.
[11:38] <brk3> dannyboy79: let us know if it works :)
[11:38] <ParanoyaM> what wrong in this command? sudo iptables -t mangle -p udp --dport 50138 -A OUTPUT -s 10.0.1.21 -d 234.0.0.1 -j ROUTE --oif eth0 --tee
[11:38] <dannyboy79> brk3: so you think that's it? No damage if I delete it?
[11:38] <fuzzy_logic> ParanoyaM: i'm sure 1 time asking is more than enough

[11:39] <Arenlor> fuzzy_logic, thanks
[11:39] <PurpZeY> lllllll: apt-remove

[11:46] <C_> Im running an amd67 with an ati video card and can some one help me get desktop efc's work
[11:46] <illriginal> it's the worst idea ever mentioned and created.
[11:46] <C_> *64 that is

[11:48] <advanced1implici> Hi, how can I extract .rar files? When I go to extract it says archive type not supported.
[11:48] <illriginal> advancedlimplici.... go to synaptic
[11:48] <illriginal> and type rar
[11:49] <advanced1implici> illriginal: okay thanks.
[11:49] <illriginal> and download the support file for it :P
[11:49] <PriceChild> advanced1implici, sudo apt-get install unrar, then unrar file.rar

[11:49] <ipx-laptop> Is there any easy way to install GTK2+? Its really a dependency h-ll to install it through source :( Running into so many problems i cant even count them on one hand!
[11:49] <chohmann> gunmanic: do "ctrl+alt+f1". then "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop"
[11:49] <frankiez> which package should I download to burn cd's on Ubuntu ?
[11:49] <PriceChild> ipx-laptop, what are you really trying to do?
[11:49] <PriceChild> frankiez, sudo apt-get install gnomebaker
[11:50] <Imsdle> how do you force a reinstall of osmething to wipe all the settings and reinstall... i.e. mythtv-backend

[11:50] <frankiez> Thanx PriceChild
[11:50] <PriceChild> knotgifted, have you tried?
[11:50] <ipx-laptop> PriceChild: installing xfce4-battery-plugin-0.5.0
[11:50] <dromer> how can I see what my hostname on the network is?
[11:50] <knotgifted> pricechild: i tried on ubuntu, afterward, my computer would not boot up
[11:50] <ipx-laptop> PriceChild: it depends on gtk2+, like ive heard many apps do
[11:50] <ipx-laptop> PriceChild: and i cannot compile it without
[11:50] <PriceChild> knotgifted, tilda being the game like console?
[11:51] <yehweh> Imsdle: purge
[11:51] <knotgifted> pricechild: it would boot.. but it would be at this very basic prompt. yes, tilda the quake-like-console terminal
[11:51] <newtubuntu> I'm really trying hard here, and I think I'm over-complicating things. All I want is to be able to share a partition (FAT32) with any pc on the network. I need to be able to edit the drive's permissions. How do I proceed ?
[11:51] <gdb> Does anyone know how to force the gnome-terminal cursor to be green?
[11:51] <clever> Imsdle: mythtv stores a large portion of its settings in mysql

[11:52] <illriginal> now im outs!
[11:52] <PriceChild> Jordan_U, change your keyboard layout to the correct version
[11:52] <knotgifted> pricechild: i ran 'daemon tilda' in terminal
[11:52] <ipx-laptop> PriceChild: thanks alot, didnt know it was in the repos! :)
[11:52] <Jordan_U> PriceChild, Where? I never changed it and it was working yesterday
[11:52] <ipx-laptop> PriceChild: But anyways, isnt gtk+ 2.0 a good package to have installed? Arent there many programs depending on it?
[11:52] <PriceChild> ipx-laptop, you should never have to compile stuff until a last resort... "always" check the repos first
[11:52] <ipx-laptop> ok :)
[11:52] <rustalot> how do I make an iso of an sd card
[11:53] <pike_> cat /dev/sda1 > file.iso  i guess maybe
[11:53] <pike_> rustalot: ^
[11:53] <PriceChild> ipx-laptop, and you will want libgtk2 soemthing if you want to compile
[11:53] <pike_> rustalot: dd is probably better
[11:53] <rustalot> how do I use dd?
[11:53] <PriceChild> ipx-laptop, do an "apt-get build-dep package" to get all the build dependencies (if its in ubuntu) if you want to recompile
[11:53] <knotgifted> in terminal, is it possible to run a program, e.g. blender, beep-music-player, firefox... without locking up the terminal?
[11:53] <PriceChild> Jordan_U, I don't believe you :)
[11:53] <gdb> dd if=/dev/device of=image.iso
[11:54] <PriceChild> Jordan_U, obviously you changed something for it to change... it doesn't do it by itself
[11:54] <pike_> rustalot: ^ what gdb said :)
[11:55] <yehweh> knotgifted: add a & at the end
[11:55] <EADG_> knotgifted: send the program to the background; program &
[11:55] <dromer> so, how can I see whet domain name my network uses?
[11:55] <knotgifted> yehweh, EADG_: thanks
[11:55] <newtubuntu> I do you change a drive's permissions and make it RW to EVERYONE ?
[11:55] <ipx-laptop> PriceChild: okok
[11:55] <Jordan_U> knotgifted, If you also want the program to keep running when you close the terminal use screen
[11:56] <newtubuntu> HOW do you change, that is...
[11:56] <yehweh> newtubuntu: chmod  -R 666 /media/drive
[11:56] <PriceChild> yehweh, newtubuntu don't do that
[11:56] <vad> hey
[11:56] <newtubuntu> PriceChild:  Why ?
[11:56] <PriceChild> newtubuntu, this is something you have mounted in your /etc/fstab right?
[11:57] <yehweh> PriceChild: as soon as i typed it I realised that was stupid. my bad
[11:57] <vad> what alternative is for putty?
[11:57] <vad> anyone know?
[11:57] <Jordan_U> vad, ssh ?
[11:57] <vad> yeees
[11:57] <Nimrod6> df -h shows my / is 100%, i dont know what to delete in there and i googling isnt helping
[11:57] <vad> i forget about ssh
[11:57] <newtubuntu> PriceChild:  I tried mounting it in fstab, but I fail in following the doc's directions for sharing a volume with windows
[11:57] <PriceChild> newtubuntu, because you want to change the way you mount it, not change what is on there so you can use it
[11:57] <ihsan> gh
[11:57] <ihsan> ppp
[11:57] <yehweh> newtubuntu: it recursively changes the permission for all the files. thats not a good thing to do
