[12:23] <Q_Continuum> Pirate_Hunter, we are ALL still learning
[12:24] <Q_Continuum> artofmagic, I'd look at what version is in Ubuntu though
[12:24] <Q_Continuum> and check that version's list
[12:24] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: not at all, i'm 29, I used WIndows for a good 10-12yrs before even messing with Linux
[12:24] <Q_Continuum> as installing any other version is going to be more difficult
[12:24] <Ausylo> Rob125: okay, i can type but when i hit enter, it doesnt do anything
[12:24] <insomnia> I'm rather impressed with Ubuntu so far.
[12:25] <Q_Continuum> artofmagic, Ubuntu's version is this: http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_1.0-9631.html I think, based on the package version in sypatic for me
[12:25] <Pirate_Hunter> Q_Continuum: true we learn from each other/ IndyGunFreak: thats kl im 9 years younger than yougood at using windows and at university so if you cna do it so can I "lol I think i cna..."
[12:25] <nocturne-1> PurpZeY, when i use wifi-radar it cant get an IP
[12:25] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: it just takes the will to learn, i'm a self professed geek
[12:25] <Rob125> Ausylo: dunno then. Pose the question again, and someone more knowledgeable will probably answer.
[12:26] <Ausylo> ok
[12:26] <jamman> hey, anybody here play diablo 2?
[12:26] <Veinor> Is there any way to adjust the volume on one application only?
[12:26] <Q_Continuum> Pirate_Hunter, I'm 22 - been playing with it on and off since I was 15 - finally actually learning it more than just bits and pieces - and like IndyGunFreak I'm a self-professed geek :D
[12:26] <jamman> Ausylo, whats wrong?
[12:27] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: I prefer the word intellectual sounds better and annoys a lot of ppl as they believe im insulting them or maybe its me being spiteful
[12:27] <BrightEyes`> h00s: well now i dont know which is the tv standard for greece :p
[12:27] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: i know i'm a geek, no big deal... you wouldnt think it by looking at me, but i accept it..lol

[12:28] <jamman> hmm..., Ausylo try what freewilly said.
[12:28] <Ausylo> jamman: how do i view that in recovery mode
[12:29] <freewilly> login & cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | less
[12:29] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: Geek is just a word that describes what others think of you when they are not capable of doing or achieving what you have/ for that reason I chose intellectual as it shows im good at one thing but may still lack on another "heck its just my way of thinking"
[12:29] <jamman> cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[12:30] <jamman> cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log, Ausylo

[12:37] <bitumen> freewilly in recovery mode i didnt get the logon prompt either i also couldnt list the files
[12:37] <blanky> magnetron: it's like wine, but it's not!
[12:37] <blanky> it's something having to do with virtualization, I forgot the name!
[12:37] <freewilly> except for 3d graphics, vmware is great
[12:37] <blanky> I just saw it a while ago :(
[12:37] <magnetron> blanky: then it's crossover office

[12:44] <Evilbadwrong> Hello, I'm a complete newbie with Ubuntu and I was wondering if anyone has some time to help me out with something?
[12:44] <UbuntuServerUser> I have a samba question. I'm following this guide (http://howtoforge.com/samba_domaincontroller_setup_ubuntu_6.10_p4?s=46e820405a536935a1b1047787c75c6a&) and its all for one HDD. I have /dev/hdb1 mounted on /srv, and thats where I want the files to be stored. What do I have to change in order for samba to write to /srv ???????
[12:44] <Pirate_Hunter> blanky: so what it acts like samba or vmware windows server? how does it work?
[12:45] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: looking at it for aq script you just need to set var to what you want
[12:45] <UbuntuServerUser> !evilbadwrong | question
[12:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about evilbadwrong - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:45] <UbuntuServerUser> !question | Evilbadwrong
[12:45] <ubotu> Evilbadwrong: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:45] <r2d4> Is there a simple tool that presents with a graphical analysis of the network activity of a Feisty Fawn server?
[12:45] <artofmagic> Is their program that works like Parallel
[12:45] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: weve been through this before me noob, you expert please make ti easy for me to understand what youre saying - now set var - whats that
[12:45] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: so it will be just EPSXE=/home/me/Program\ Files/ePSXe
[12:45] <alex__> hey, does anybody knows why i can't make guifications work with pidgin instant messenger?
[12:46] <artofmagic> Mac > Parallel > XP
[12:46] <alex__> it seems to be another version, 2.14 instead of 2.0.2
[12:46] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: you don't need export in a script
[12:46] <artofmagic> Linux > Parallel > XP
[12:46] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: thanx way ahead of my next bragging
[12:46] <bitumen> anyone know how to create a dos file in a linux partition??
[12:46] <Evilbadwrong> I've successfully dual-booted Ubuntu and Windows Vista, but I'm wanting to access my music folder on my windows partition from my Ubunut partition...ie, I want to play my mp3's in Juk. :)
[12:46] <bronze> Can anyone recommend me some desktop "applications" that e.g. shows system information or similar on desktop.
[12:46] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: will remeber that for future reference
[12:47] <freewilly> you must have vfat or/and ntfs support in kernel
[12:47] <freewilly> or as modules
[12:47] <Evilbadwrong> And how do I do that, freewilly?
[12:47] <freewilly> do a "fdisk -l
[12:47] <freewilly> "
[12:47] <kitche> Evilbadwrong: might want to look up Vista support in Linux
[12:47] <kitche> Evilbadwrong: since Vista ntfs is different then XP's
[12:48] <freewilly> ahh
[12:48] <freewilly> vista is mb so new that there is mb no linux driver for the filessystem?
[12:49] <sharperguy> anyone know if a lot of  people are still sticking with dapper?
[12:49] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: i dont need to put the quotes liek it is on the original one?
[12:49] <kitche> freewilly: it uses ntfs but how the system is seen is different
[12:49] <Evilbadwrong> Ok, what am I looking for in fdisk, freewilly?
[12:49] <kevin57> Hello. I was wondering, how do you extract tar files through the command line? Any help is appreciated, thank you.
[12:49] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: well you can but I use \ instead
[12:49] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: kk
[12:49] <freewilly> u can see what filesystem the win partition is, but i bet its ntfs
[12:50] <alex__> it has to be ntfs, it sthe only type vista supports
[12:50] <frying_fish> Can someone tell me a way to find out my current bandwidth usage from the terminal (not from any panel plugin)
[12:50] <Evilbadwrong> Yes, it's ntfs
[12:50] <freewilly> but the most important is, that the kernel has support for ntfs
[12:51] <freewilly> then u make a mountpoint
[12:51] <alex__> where can i see my motherboard specs?
[12:51] <freewilly> & mount it
[12:51] <Ausylo> hey guys, isnt opensuse under gnome as well?
[12:51] <freewilly> "man mount
[12:51] <kitche> freewilly, Evilbadwrong XP uses ntfs-3 while Vista uses ntfs-4 which has some security stuff to it so not sure if Linux can use the partition without messing it up
[12:51] <Evilbadwrong> Ooohboy.... :(
[12:51] <frying_fish> if you want ntfs write access you need the fuse-3g package for ntfs (which works quite well I might add at least for ntfs-3)
[12:51] <freewilly> ok i see, mb u cant mount it
[12:51] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: EPSXE=/home/me/Program\ Files/ePSXe - why did you do that to Program Files its supposed to be a folder "I thought you wouldve used it on the actual main folder epsxe", sory i would just like to find out
[12:51] <alex__> evilbadwrong: downlaod ntfs configuration tools
[12:52] <okienoob> anyone here got a minute to help with installing a library?
[12:52] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: \ can be used to escape things like the space
[12:52] <Keymaster`> ifconfig gives you cumulative bandwidth stats
[12:52] <Evilbadwrong> aleX-xx: Where can I get these? Sorry, but I'm really clueless.
[12:52] <Keymaster`> next to RX and TX
[12:52] <frying_fish> Keymaster`: I was thinking along the current usage
[12:52] <Keymaster`> ah
[12:52] <frying_fish> Keymaster`: as in, how many MB/s or kB/s
[12:52] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: thanx much better will try it now and tell u in a sec if it works
[12:52] <padee> hi everyone. does anyone know hot to connect ubuntu to an external harddrive (mvix mx-760hd)? i have access via usb, but i would love to connect via wifi.
[12:52] <alex__> evilbadwrong: i'm pretty sure i got it from synaptic, you should look for it there.
[12:52] <Evilbadwrong> Ok, thank you.
[12:53] <Lattyware> Hey
[12:53] <alex__> evilbadwrong: wait one sec that i'll see where to get it from
[12:53] <Olivero> I made it.
[12:53] <PSILOSSSSS> gratz for UBUNTU 7.04 very easy install nvidia and beryl :)))
[12:53] <kitche> PSILOSSSSS: nvidia is always easy to install if you have the headers :)
[12:53] <freewilly> acces to a hd via wifi?
[12:54] <lgc> how can I install (with apt*) the latest version of a package regarldess of my distro? Thanks.
[12:54] <UbuntuServerUser> I have a samba question. I'm following this guide (http://howtoforge.com/samba_domaincontroller_setup_ubuntu_6.10_p4?s=46e820405a536935a1b1047787c75c6a&) and its all for one HDD. I have /dev/hdb1 mounted on /srv, and thats where I want the files to be stored. What do I have to change in order for samba to write to /srv ???????
[12:54] <PSILOSSSSS> i used two clicks only
[12:54] <ZERO_SHIFT> Hi guys I have a problem I am dual booting ubuntu and XP and whenever I boot to XP the next time I boot the GRUB disappears and I am forced to log into XP, I used to GPartED to mark ubuntu as the bootable partition however the same problem still presists after booting XP any ideas? Thanks
[12:54] <freewilly> i doubt it -)
[12:54] <Olivero> ALright guys..  I have very little computer know how.
[12:54] <Olivero> But I know I despise windows.
[12:54] <padee> freewilly: it is a nice gadget... http://www.mvixusa.com/
[12:54] <lgc> how can I install (with apt*) the latest version of a package regarldess of my distro? Thanks.
[12:54] <alex__> evilbadwrong: write ntfs in search in synaptic, and look for ntfs-config
[12:54] <freewilly> yes?
[12:54] <freewilly> k
[12:54] <kitche> lgc: you can't really well you can use a 3rd party repo but that will mess you up on a upgrade
[12:54] <bitumen> where do i find the linux swap file ???
[12:55] <alex__> evilbadwrong: that should make it easier for you
[12:55] <UbuntuServerUser> bitumen /etc/fstab
[12:55] <kitche> bitumen: umm it's a partition it won't show up in mount but what does top tell you
[12:55] <okienoob> ZERO_SHIFT look in the forums and it will walk you through using the live cd to reinstall grub
[12:55] <leku> hey
[12:55] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: didnt work terminal just pops up quickly than shuts down, which isnt supposed to happen will post the new pastebin soon
[12:55] <Olivero> Anyways, I need to know how to do all of this stuff from begining to end.. I'm about to download it, what should I do there after?
[12:55] <ZERO_SHIFT> okidok1,  I did reinstall grub
[12:55] <leku> whenever i ctrl-alt-backspace gnome keeps switching from beryl back to metacity
[12:55] <bitumen> fstab thanks i try
[12:56] <leku> also is there any way to customize the ubuntu screens you see after you've logged in through GDM?
[12:56] <bluefox83> ok i downloaded a deb repo key, now how do i add it to apt?
[12:56] <leku> like those splash screens? but not usplash?
[12:56] <leku> blue: apt-key
[12:56] <PSILOSSSSS> do u have sata disks?
[12:56] <padee> allright. noone with mvix-experience? then, how can i make a ext3 partition writable? its one on a external hd
[12:56] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: that's what it's suppose to do at least from your first pastebin run the file in the terminal
[12:56] <bluefox83> leku, apt-key what?
[12:56] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: without double clicking the file just type ./<file>
[12:56] <BrightEyes`> h00s: input configuration, picture settings, video processing, output configuration => where?
[12:57] <Olivero> I'm running a dell 4600 desktop, I believe that makes it and AMD Intel base?
[12:57] <leku> amd intel base?
[12:57] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: say that again im supposed to type ./<file> and the file name?
[12:57] <leku> you should find out
[12:57] <leku> it's either intel or amd
[12:57] <leku> but not both
[12:57] <UbuntuServerUser> I have a samba question. I'm following this guide (http://howtoforge.com/samba_domaincontroller_setup_ubuntu_6.10_p4?s=46e820405a536935a1b1047787c75c6a&) and its all for one HDD. I have /dev/hdb1 mounted on /srv, and thats where I want the files to be stored. What do I have to change in order for samba to write to /srv ???????
[12:57] <lgc> kitche, that's what I mean...I understand there's an apt* option to install, for example, the app. version corresponding to Edgy on Dapper.
[12:57] <Olivero> It uses an intel chip, so, intel.
[12:58] <freewilly> "uname -a"
[12:58] <Olivero> I just wanted to make sure I was downloading for the correct computer architecture?
[12:58] <Lunar_Lamp> Olivero, yeah, you are :-)
[12:58] <Anthology> is exaile considered *better* for gnome users as opposed to Amarok? any opinions?
[12:59] <Keymaster`> frying_fish, apt-get install bmon
[12:59] <Keymaster`> then `bmon'
[12:59] <Olivero> K, thanks.  Now for the download of my life... 700 mb
[12:59] <BrightEyes`> i want to install the nvidia drivers.my graphics card is geforce 5200 fx.which drivers should i get?
[12:59] <Keymaster`> nice little HUD showing all your interfaces
[12:59] <BrightEyes`> i want to install the nvidia drivers.my graphics card is geforce 5200 fx.which drivers should i get? if i get the latest would that be ok?
[12:59] <freewilly> chances are high that its x86
[12:59] <Lunar_Lamp> Anthology, I haven't used exaile for a few months, bu last I used it the features/stability were nowhere near that of amarok.  Amarok in gnome is better than exaile imo.

[12:59] <Anthology> thanks Lunar_Lamp, glad i asked first ;)
[12:59] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: running ./epsxe gives me no such file or directory how can i make it more specific
[01:00] <freewilly> the latest drivers are most of the time not the best for older cards
[01:00] <ZERO_SHIFT> Hi guys I have a problem I am dual booting ubuntu and XP and whenever I boot to XP the next time I boot the GRUB disappears and I am forced to log into XP, I used to GPartED to mark ubuntu as the bootable partition however the same problem still presists after booting XP any ideas? Thanks
[01:00] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: the before latest?
[01:00] <kitche> lgc: well that will end up with a broken system
[01:00] <freewilly> that may be better for 5200
[01:00] <Keymaster`> i have a 5200 too
[01:00] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: where is this script at?
[01:01] <Keymaster`> on my htpc
[01:01] <Olivero> I'm downloading now, next thing I have to do is burn the download to a CD, correct?
[01:01] <freewilly> i have 6600gt & use 931 or so
[01:01] <kingnothing> i'm trying to use easyvmx, but when I open the .vmx it creates, I get an "invalid config file" error taht says the image was created by a VMWare product with more features than this version and cannot be used. Any ideas?
[01:01] <Murdoch> okay I could find crossfire I even did A search and it turned up nothign
[01:01] <Murdoch> but I did install it last ngiht
[01:01] <Murdoch> *night
[01:01] <lgc> kitche, I thought it would only avoid upgrading it on the next upgrade.
[01:01] <Murdoch> so I'm not sure
[01:01] <freewilly> the latest drivers have support for things like sli etc
[01:01] <UbuntuServerUser> I have a samba question. I'm following this guide (http://howtoforge.com/samba_domaincontroller_setup_ubuntu_6.10_p4?s=46e820405a536935a1b1047787c75c6a&) and its all for one HDD.

[01:02] <Phocion> hey all....I installed Compiz-Fusion no problem.  Works great.  BUT when I rebooted my computer with Compiz-Fusion still running and it booted back up, every window had missing title bars.  Anyone experience this?
[01:02] <lgc> ZERO_SHIFT, I believe the Xp partition should be the bootable one, in any case.
[01:02] <freewilly> its prob a window manager thing
[01:03] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: the driver will detect my graphics card and configure it to work properly.i want to add 3d environment.can u help?
[01:03] <freewilly> i can try
[01:03] <freewilly> -)
[01:03] <Phocion> freewilly: they DO come back when I load compiz-fusion again
[01:03] <kingnothing> Phocion: i think you need to set your window decorator to GTK and not Emerald, assuming you were running Beryl
[01:03] <freewilly> heliodor
[01:04] <ZERO_SHIFT> lgc, But when it boots it does not give me the choice of using ubuntu
[01:04] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: whats that
[01:04] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: is the script in that folder also? I know where the fodler is
[01:04] <kitche> folder*
[01:04] <freewilly> the compiz/beryl windowmanager wich let u use metacity theems in beryl
[01:04] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: yeah in that folder as well
[01:04] <magnetron> hack, Pirate_Hunter, hack.
[01:04] <frying_fish> now I can see whether or not the gigabit is being used well
[01:05] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: ok then go into that directory and then ./ the script
[01:05] <lgc> ZERO_SHIFT, then you need to fix /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:05] <Pirate_Hunter> magnetron: lol ur eally like that
[01:05] <bluefox83> for anyone how installs google desktop for linux in ubuntu, i strongly suggest you go through the ubuntu feisty installer guide on the google desktop page, installing with the generic .deb does not work >.>
[01:05] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: simply install beryl in adept?
[01:05] <lgc> m /boot/grub/menu.lst~
[01:05] <freewilly> first nvidia 3d
[01:05] <Keymaster`> i got feisty on my htpc with an fx5200 and the nvidia-glx package (9631 drivers) and I get occasional video corruption that's only fixed by restarting gdm
[01:06] <Keymaster`> i would suggest going with nvidia-glx-legacy if you got a 5200 too
[01:06] <freewilly> test it with "glxgears" or a 3d screensavere

[01:09] <ZERO_SHIFT> GOt it http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27687/
[01:09] <IndyGunFreak> !enter | mike24
[01:09] <ubotu> mike24: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[01:09] <mike24> it reboots
[01:09] <funman> hello
[01:09] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: now?
[01:09] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: ur d man/female choose which ever
[01:10] <freewilly> i dont know if u need a special 64 bit nvidia driver
[01:10] <funman> i'm looking for the apt repository with -dbg versions of libraries
[01:10] <freewilly> is the nvidia driver installed?
[01:10] <mike24> ok... ubuntu loads fine.. but when i select windows it displays she splash screen then reboots back to the menu
[01:10] <a5benwillis> Can anyone tell me if running all of the 'updates' under 6.10 will upgrade my installation to 7.04?
[01:10] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: before it worked also but I neber double click a script just incase it has output since you won't see it
[01:10] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: wait to install and then we continue
[01:10] <freewilly> kernel-module & driver
[01:10] <funman> a5benwillis: it won't
[01:10] <IndyGunFreak> a5benwillis: i don't think so.., i think you have to run a dist-upgrade
 GOt it http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27687/
[01:11] <aztek> a5benwillis you have to change the repos you pull your updates from in apt too
[01:11] <a5benwillis> funman: thanks, Im scared to upgrade because I dont know how and dont want to loose everything
[01:11] <Keymaster`> or hit the upgrade to 7.04 button in upgrade managere
[01:11] <Keymaster`> manager*
[01:11] <aztek> or do what Keymaster said
[01:11] <aztek> There's an upgrade manager? Cool
[01:11] <Keymaster`> yeah
[01:11] <Keymaster`> Xvnc has spoiled me
[01:11] <Keymaster`> i'm a point and click admin at home 8)
[01:11] <mike24> anyone have my problem in the past?
[01:12] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: ok but if i triedit that way my setting would be accessible which is what ive been tryin to fix now I just need a sort of macro so I dont have to do  this through termina every time they want to play games
[01:12] <lllllll> Quick question: Is there a way to set different background pics for each workspace on Feisty (GNOME)?
[01:12] <Keymaster`> update* manager, my mistake
[01:12] <Phocion> how exactly do you gracefully kill Compiz-Fusion once its running?
[01:12] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: would you know how to macro the folder directory in terminal?
[01:12] <lgc> ZERO_SHIFT, it seems a 'boot' command is needed as the last line...
[01:12] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: what do you mean by macro since I know what you mean but not sure what your saying exactly
[01:12] <Iwizzard> Hi
[01:12] <Keymaster`> sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop doesn't do it?
[01:13] <Keymaster`> @phocion
[01:13] <Phocion> Keymaster`: let me try
[01:13] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: since that script only has to be ran once then those settings stay until you change them
[01:13] <mike24> are you guys ignoring me
[01:13] <aztek> i didn't see your question
[01:13] <jrib> lllllll: google for 'wallpapoz'
[01:13] <ZERO_SHIFT> lgc, can you send me an exaple of how the line should be?
[01:13] <Phocion> Keymaster`: my window manager is screwed up because I lost power to my house last night and I was running Compiz-Fusion.  when I rebooted (C-F not running) ALL title bars were gone.
[01:14] <ZERO_SHIFT> lgc, thanks
[01:14] <lllllll> cheers jrib
[01:14] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: i.e. if i run it away from terminal it cause bugs i.e. setting cant be changed so if someone wanted to play this they'll have to go to terminal and type what ive just typed again, thats annoying so I want something i.e. macro to replicate this procedure.
[01:14] <freewilly> mb your gnome-session has somethignwrong
[01:14] <lgc> ZERO_SHIFT, I'm on it...
[01:14] <mike24> aztek,  ubuntu loads fine.. but when i select windows it displays she splash screen then reboots back to the menu
[01:14] <Keymaster`> holy crap
[01:14] <Phocion> Keymaster`: ever hear of such a thing?
[01:14] <Iwizzard> Hi I? trying to gett dual boot to work ubuntu +vista, the problem is that vistas boot manager was on another partition than vista itself, If I run an repair withe the vista DVD will itt mess upp GRUB? (so ubuntu wont boot agin)
[01:14] <ombwa> Anybody know what the the ubuntu equivalent of "yum groupinstall development-tools" is?
[01:14] <jrib> !apt > ombwa (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:14] <Keymaster`> I'm not familiar with compiz
[01:14] <Phocion> Keymaster`: BUT they come back when I reload compiz
[01:14] <freewilly> it probably will mess things up
[01:14] <lgc> ZERO_SHIFT, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27689/
[01:14] <Keymaster`> thats odd
[01:14] <jrib> ombwa: I'm going to guess you want to install 'build-essential', but am not sure
[01:15] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: ah ok you can always make a shortcut to that script if you wanted and if you even wanted to you could make the program start from that script
[01:15] <aztek> oh i got no idea mike24. i don't do much w/ that window manager stuff
[01:15] <Phocion> Keymaster`: I think something just got screwed up with the account I was logged in on during the power outage......cant recreate on any other accounts
[01:15] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: how? how cna I make the program start from the actual script?
[01:15] <Keymaster`> miek24 are you talking about the boot menu?
[01:15] <mike24> ya
[01:15] <Keymaster`> your grub config is hosed
[01:15] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: where is this program installed
[01:16] <Keymaster`> that happened to me when i tried to set windows as the default boot choice
[01:16] <mike24> it wont go to windows.. just keeps rebooting,, but i get into ubuntu fine
[01:16] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: nevermind it's in /usr/local/bin :)
[01:16] <Keymaster`> i had to restore an old config
[01:16] <mike24> keymaster, so what do i do
[01:16] <aztek> Oh
[01:16] <Keymaster`> have you ever been able to boot to windows since you install ubuntu?
[01:16] <aztek> haha i thought you meant when you're in ubuntu and click on open windows
[01:16] <Keymaster`> yeah thats what i thought at first
[01:16] <mike24> keymaster, no
[01:16] <aztek> now i feel like an idiot. not rying to boot windows
[01:16] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: at the end of the script put /usr/local/bin/start_epsxe.sh should make it start automatically then make a shortcut to this script
[01:16] <Keymaster`> but then i saw the same symptom i had with the hosted grub config
[01:17] <Keymaster`> hosed*
[01:17] <sooti> I know its a silly q, but does running compiz affect video playback performance?
[01:17] <Default> what version would be better on a system with 500mhz proc, and 64 meg of ram..ubuntu,edubuntu,xubuntu?
[01:17] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: something about kernel came up as a message.what can i do?
[01:17] <freewilly> what u mean
[01:17] <mike24> keymaster, aztek,so how do i fix this
[01:17] <sooti> default, definitely xubuntu
[01:17] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: will try that tell u in a sec if it works
[01:18] <freewilly> u know how 2 install nvidia
[01:18] <bitumen> can i create a fat partition  while running fiesty or do i need outside program ?
[01:18] <Default> sooti: thank you:)
[01:18] <freewilly> ?
[01:18] <novato_br> how can I run the office 2007 on ubuntu by wine?
[01:18] <aztek> go into ubuntu and re run the grub config
[01:18] <novato_br> is it typing "wine winword.exe"?
[01:18] <ZERO_SHIFT> lgc, thanks I am gonna try it now
[01:18] <DebianServerUser> Is there any other way to define hosts  in /etc/hosts like through MAC address or somethin???
[01:19] <lgc> ZERO_SHIFT, that should do...
[01:19] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: chmod +x NVIDIA... and i logout.i console login and sudo ./NVI...
[01:19] <mike24> if i type grub then what
[01:19] <qnyc> bitumen, you can, you just can't modify currently mounted partitions, use gparted
[01:19] <freewilly> yes seems ok
[01:19] <sooti> novato, I dont think its supported by wine
[01:19] <kitche> bitumen: man mkdosfs
[01:19] <Keymaster`> novato_br, is OpenOffice.org not an option?
[01:19] <aztek> try sudo update-grub
[01:19] <bitumen> kitche thanks
[01:19] <freewilly> sh NV.... or . NV..
[01:19] <novato_br> Keymaster`, no
[01:19] <novato_br> Keymaster`, i need  run office2007 on linux ( ubuntu )
[01:20] <DebianServerUser> Is there any other way to define hosts  in /etc/hosts like through MAC address or something??? My workgroup computers are on a DHCP and not static///?
[01:20] <mo0n_sniper> wine
[01:20] <Keymaster`> that'll be tough
[01:20] <novato_br> my ubuntu version is 7.04
[01:20] <mike24> what do i do in grub
[01:20] <mo0n_sniper> try wine
[01:20] <mike24> how do i fix
[01:20] <Keymaster`> you're better off asking on wine support boards
[01:20] <freewilly> when installed edit xorg.conf
[01:20] <novato_br> how is it ?
[01:20] <freewilly> to use the 3d
[01:20] <aztek> mike24 did u try just running sudo update-grub and see if it fixes itself
[01:20] <mo0n_sniper> runs windows apps in linux
[01:20] <novato_br> here, don't we support to wine ?
[01:20] <sak> Question: I have a fairly old make script I am using (can't change it) and it won't run under dash (bashisms). Is there a better method of changing /bin/sh to point to bash instead of dash than 'rm /bin/sh; ln --symbolic /bin/bash /bin/sh'? And Part 2, If I do part 1 are there any problems elsewhere?
[01:21] <novato_br> is there a channel wine_support?
[01:21] <mo0n_sniper> www.winehq.hu
[01:21] <novato_br> no, mo0n_sniper , in english?
[01:21] <mike24> aztek, is that a command
[01:21] <mo0n_sniper> www.winehq.org sorry
[01:21] <Keymaster`> http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=4992
[01:21] <kitche> novato_br: #wine is the wine's channel
[01:21] <mike24> i typed it in
[01:21] <aztek> yes
[01:21] <aztek> "sudo update-grub" minus the quotes
[01:21] <novato_br> thx, kitche
[01:22] <rustalot> I'm having problems with fstab and automounting an ntfs partition on boot: I got it to mount fine, but it's only readable by root. The fstab entry is "/dev/sda1       /media/WinXP   ntfs    auto,dev,noexec,ro,async,nosuid,nodev,user  0       0"
[01:22] <zc0m2> server dune.irc-hispano.org
[01:22] <mike24> aztek, ok did tht now rebootin
[01:22] <novato_br> kitche, is there on  freenode networking?
[01:22] <aztek> ok
[01:22] <kitche> novato_br: #wine
[01:22] <novato_br> but is it wine on is freenode?
[01:22] <pi3> #winehq
[01:22] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: there was soemthing in the actual script i forgot which is why termianl wasnt showingg and I had to input the commands manuall now it works so all I ahve to do is make a copy of the program and link it to the original which in windows is done automatically but not in ubuntu... so could you help me do that?
[01:22] <ceil420> am i allowed to export Ubuntu to Cuba?
[01:23] <novato_br> because have few people
[01:23] <ceil420> (serious question)
[01:23] <mike24> aztek, didnt work. went back to the boot after trying to load windows
[01:23] <lgc> rustalot, It should be read-only. Otherwise you wreck it if you try to write it.
[01:23] <aztek> maybe your windows install is hosed
[01:23] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: you mean change the shortcut to the program to the start_epsxe.sh script?
[01:23] <ceil420> !license
[01:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about license - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:23] <rustalot> lgc: I want it to be ro, but readable by non-root users
[01:23] <ceil420> -_-
[01:23] <BrightEyes`> freewilly
[01:23] <lgc> ceil420, claro que s.
[01:23] <mike24> aztek.. maybe this maybe that
[01:24] <ceil420> lgc, is that a yes?
[01:24] <aztek> that's why i try to avoid dual boots.
[01:24] <freewilly> y
[01:24] <Keymaster`> lol
[01:24] <aztek> w00t time to go home from work
[01:24] <freewilly> im free!
[01:24] <ceil420> alternatively, where's the ubuntu license thing? i'll look it up myself :o
[01:24] <albert> anybody familiar with wine in here
[01:24] <mike24> NO one knows the solution
[01:24] <kms375> hello
[01:24] <freewilly> if you cant use linux in cuba, what can you use there
[01:24] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: basically I edit the option in the start_epsxe.sh which is the second part to the other script and now for other to sue it I want to put it on desktop as a short cut and not as a different copy of the script as that wont work
[01:25] <Keymaster`> you can't use linux in cuba?
[01:25] <Keymaster`> why not
[01:25] <lgc> ceil420, are you Cuban?
[01:25] <ceil420> freewilly, Fedora's license agreement specifically says you can't export linux to Cuba or North Korea etc
[01:25] <ceil420> anyone the USA is pissed at, apparently
[01:25] <freewilly> aha i see
[01:25] <mrfeetio> !listen
[01:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about listen - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:25] <freewilly> so harsh
[01:25] <ceil420> lgc, no
[01:25] <Keymaster`> american companies can't
[01:25] <mike24>  ubuntu loads fine.. but when i select windows it displays she splash screen then reboots back to the menu
[01:25] <Pirate_Hunter> Keymaster`: lol rofl that just funy but i bet you aint finding it funny, well look for something else
[01:25] <albert> ubuntu is still southafrican?
[01:25] <rustalot> ceil420: it's because fedora is made by RedHat
[01:25] <omnicronx> fuck
[01:26] <ceil420> freewilly, yeah it's harsh ;x
[01:26] <omnicronx> xchat changed
[01:26] <DebianServerUser> Does ubuntu offer any other ways of computer identification other than ip address? it dosn't have /etc/ethers and I want to add other compuesr to the host file via mac address
[01:26] <freewilly> poor fidel
[01:26] <ceil420> rustalot, that's throwed off ;x
[01:26] <Siph0n> why would using gedit with my acct i am logged in as work, but if i open a new terminal and use su svn, and than try gedit i get " Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server "
[01:26] <rustalot> ceil420: ubuntu is in the netherlands or somewhere
[01:26] <ceil420> USA government needs to stop telling american businesses who they can and can't serve
[01:26] <lgc> ceil420, I believe there's no restrictions to Ubuntu. Some cryptographic algorithms are not allowed to be exported to "evil" nations, but only from U.S. servers. Ubuntu has servers all over the world.
[01:26] <ceil420> but that's a topic for #politics, i guess
[01:26] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: ln -s /home/me/Program\ Files/ePSXe/<script> /home/me/Desktop/<shortcut_name> should work
[01:27] <Keymaster`> :p
[01:27] <freewilly> im sure they use it anyway
[01:27] <mike24> you guys arent any help :(
[01:27] <cafuego> ceil420: And foreign business too whilst they're at it.
[01:27] <DebianServerUser> DDDDDDDDDoes ubuntu offer any other ways of computer identification other than ip address? it dosn't have /etc/ethers and I want to add other compuesr to the host file via mac address
[01:27] <ceil420> lgc, i hope there's no such restrictions to ubuntu :x
[01:27] <ceil420> cafuego, indeed
[01:27] <DrX> when I setup Thunderbird with LDAP I get no results back and I tried every permutation of 3 articles from MozillaZine and verified the server OUs -- anyone know how to troubleshoot this?
[01:27] <cafuego> ceil420: There are, but only if you download off the US mirror servers.
[01:27] <albert> we are talking about the communist evil, which is of course very evil :D
[01:28] <DebianServerUser> !offtopic | albert
[01:28] <ceil420> cafuego, is ShipIt american-based? :x
[01:28] <ubotu> albert: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:28] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: will try that now giv me a sec
[01:28] <cafuego> ceil420: Nope, shipit sends from Holland
[01:28] <speaker219> does anyone know what the command is in terminal to automatically find an ip addy with dhcp? thanks =)
[01:28] <ceil420> groovie
[01:28] <cafuego> ceil420: At least, to Australia it does.
[01:28] <lgc> ceil420, just make sure you don't download from an U.S. server... or what the heck! The Cubans aren't going to deport you if you have the RSA algorithm on your computer.
[01:28] <freewilly> ifconfig eth0 dhcp?
[01:28] <DebianServerUser> speaker219 sudo invoke-rc.d networking restart <--- restarts network
[01:28] <ZERO_SHIFT> i was not able to do it lgc
[01:28] <freewilly> or dhcp eth0
[01:28] <ceil420> cafuego, i seriously doubt the dutch are as uptight about sending to "those damn commies" as america :p
[01:28] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: stupid question that goes in terminal yeah?
[01:29] <Keymaster`> mike24, i know how you can get windows back at least
[01:29] <lgc> ZERO_SHIFT, what happened?
[01:29] <Keymaster`> put in the install disk and run the recovery console
[01:29] <speaker219> freewilly and DebianServerUser, thanks alot, i love ubuntu, you get support so quickly!
[01:29] <cafuego> ceil420: Being dutch myself, I can only point and laugh at the americans
[01:29] <Keymaster`> then use the fixboot command
[01:29] <ceil420> cafuego, being american myself, i can only cry :(
[01:29] <freewilly> nice huh -)
[01:29] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: yes
[01:29] <lgc> rustalot, here's my fstab line: '/dev/sda1       /windows        ntfs    ro,auto,user,fmask=0111,dmask=0000'.
[01:29] <DebianServerUser> speaker219 I've been waiting to have my question answered here for an hour, haven't received a response, but glad I could help :)
[01:29] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: kk chnaging some bits and adding others giv me a sec
[01:29] <cafuego> ceil420: Aha! A sympathiser! Where's mr McCarthy when you need 'im?
[01:29] <ceil420> lol
[01:30] <DebianServerUser> !offtopic | cafuego
[01:30] <ubotu> cafuego: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!

[01:30] <LyleM> my gigabit nic is not connecting at 1000Gb/s speeds, on at 100Mb/s and i'm using cat5e and a gig switch
[01:30] <LyleM> is there something i need to edit
[01:30] <ceil420> idd
[01:30] <Keymaster`> usa still has a trade embargo on cuba
[01:30] <speaker219> DebianServerUser, Is there a more specific command that will obtain the DHCP addy without entirely restarting networking?
[01:30] <Keymaster`> we can't export anything there
[01:30] <ceil420> our conversation is relevant to linux's interests
[01:30] <lgc> mike24, you can also try and install TestDisk' from Ubuntu.
[01:31] <ceil420> Keymaster`, which is bs, i say ;x
[01:31] <cweagans> speaker219: ifconfig
[01:31] <ZERO_SHIFT> lgc, same problem I added "boot" as a last line for all my ubuntu partitions but I then booted to windows and when I reboot it automaticaly boots into windows without going to the GRUB
[01:31] <mike24> lgc whats testdisk
[01:31] <UbuntuServerUser> speaker219 AFAIK, there probably is but IDK what
[01:31] <mike24> my disk is fine.. i see all the windows files
[01:31] <ceil420> american government needs to do government stuff, and stay the hell out of private business' affairs
[01:31] <cafuego> ceil420: Nah, which is fair enough.
[01:31] <Keymaster`> they were doing government stuff
[01:31] <speaker219> cweagans, what ifconfig parameter do i use to get the dhcp addy?
[01:31] <Keymaster`> usa couldn't risk cuba becoming a major staging are for enemy attacks
[01:32] <lgc> mike24, it's an utility to fix or recover partitions. It's on gparted, but you can also install it directly from the Ubuntu repositories.
[01:32] <cweagans> speaker219: just type ifconfig...that will give you the basic info. For more specific stuff (MAC addresses and stuff,) type ifconfig --all
[01:32] <ceil420> Keymaster`, fifty years ago, you mean?
[01:32] <ZERO_SHIFT> lgc, any ideas?
[01:32] <larson9999> new scummvm.  cool
[01:32] <mrfeetio> does Listen have an IRC channel?
[01:32] <ceil420> -_-
[01:32] <Keymaster`> the cold war was in the 80s
[01:32] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: hmmm when using that commad the script dont run in terminal so it wont open epsxe but i i run it from the folder ti works... any suggestions?
[01:32] <lgc> ZERO_SHIFT, did you mess with the MBR?
[01:33] <tmccrary> Does anyone know when bluetooth is going to actually work on Feisty, if ever?
[01:33] <ceil420> Keymaster`, whatever, i don't think Cuba's gonna up and attack USA for sending them a linux distro
[01:33] <mike24> i cant install gparted
[01:33] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: the ln -s makes a symlink of the script on your Desktop you should have a shortcut to the one script on your Desktop
[01:33] <Keymaster`> its an economical sanction
[01:33] <ceil420> Keymaster`, and i don't think people smoking cuban cigars is going to put anyone at any greater risk than lung cancer
[01:33] <freewilly> i have some sympathy 4 those poor cubans
[01:33] <Pirate_Hunter> ceil420: lol rofl that just funny
[01:33] <cweagans> does anyone know of a good video editor?
[01:33] <yapyccky> hello everyone, i need a favour, im having troubles using my bluetooth on my ubuntu, can anyone help me?
[01:33] <Keymaster`> cut off all trade and it makes the country poor
[01:34] <ceil420> cweagans, wish i could answer that question, but the one i tried didn't do the job :x
[01:34] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: i did but it didnt work it didnt when i told it to run in terminal it didnt
[01:34] <Keymaster`> and it worked and continues to work
[01:34] <a5benwillis> so if I run update manager will it keep all of my system settings? What about Beryl etc?
[01:34] <tmccrary> bluetooth on Feisty is pretty much jacked, you might as well go get a wired device :)
[01:34] <Keymaster`> sadly, at the cost of human suffering for all cuban citizens
[01:34] <cweagans> ceil420: which did you try?
[01:34] <lgc> !bluetooth | yapyccky
[01:34] <ubotu> yapyccky: For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[01:34] <ceil420> cweagans, think it was called kdelive
[01:34] <ZERO_SHIFT> lgc, I had SuSE installed then I removed it "That took the LILO with it" hence I had no Grub menu and I used the following link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows to install Grub however I did not install it on the MBR should I?
[01:34] <Keymaster`> yapyccky, you and i are in the same boat
[01:34] <cweagans> ceil420: hmm...ok. maybe i'll give that a shot. I haven't tried that one yet
[01:34] <ceil420> cweagans, kdenlive sorry
[01:34] <tmccrary> yapyccky: Better yet, check launchpad for the currently bluetooth bug list... or mountain if you will
[01:34] <Keymaster`> bluetooth worked just fine for me in 6.10
[01:34] <cweagans> k
[01:34] <speaker219> cweagans, what i want to happen is for it to connect to the dhcp server and obtain an ip address, not tell me the ip that it already assigned
[01:35] <Keymaster`> then in 7.04  it stopped working
[01:35] <tmccrary> yeah, it sucks a lot
[01:35] <Keymaster`> launchpad for feisty has 0 bluetooth bugs
[01:35] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: pastebin the modified script for me can you
[01:35] <a5benwillis> Keymaster`: so if I run update manager will it keep all of my system settings? What about Beryl etc?
[01:35] <yapyccky> its quite strange cause i can use my bluetooth mouse (with some troubles but it works) but i cant manage my mobile phone
[01:35] <tmccrary> uhh, k
[01:35] <Red> hey everyone! quick question:I finally got my sagem 800 adsl modem to install.hell,i even browsed the net with it. problem is it never auto-connects at boot although i got the script right. the only thing i can do is unplug and replug the modem everytime. am i doing something wrong?
[01:35] <lgc> ZERO_SHIFT, Grub installs some info on the MBR.
[01:35] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: kk
[01:35] <tmccrary> Keymaster: Here's my favorite of the zero bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-bluetooth/+bug/110375
[01:36] <mike24> http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/debian-linux-help/33843-windows-xp-wont-boot-after-new-ubuntu-install.html
[01:36] <freewilly> haha that guy (fc) never dies
[01:36] <cweagans> speaker219: ah....   sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart  is the only way i know how to do that. Check google because there is probably a more specific command that will reconfigure one interface at a time.
[01:36] <ZERO_SHIFT> lgc, sould I install it on MBR?
[01:36] <mike24> that the problem i have
[01:36] <mike24> and no one helped him
[01:36] <ceil420> .xpm file format ftw :D
[01:36] <cafuego> ceil420: svg you mean?
[01:36] <Keymaster`> hmm
[01:36] <uberushaximus> SVG is WIN
[01:36] <Keymaster`> why does that not come up when searching for "bluetooth"
[01:36] <uberushaximus> ;D
[01:37] <tmccrary> Maybe you should file a bug for lanchpad ;)
[01:37] <cweagans> does anyone know of a free dial up ISP for linux users?
[01:37] <cafuego> Keymaster`: search for 'bluez'
[01:37] <lgc> ZERO_SHIFT, I think you shoud rebuild your MBR.
[01:38] <ZERO_SHIFT> lgc, how do i do th>at
[01:38] <ZERO_SHIFT> ?
[01:38] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: here it is http://pastebin.ca/594488
[01:38] <lgc> ZERO_SHIFT, I don't know of any method of rebuilding it, though. Usually when you have Windows installed and want to pack in Linux, you repartition with qtparted, for example, and that is what builds the MBR.
[01:38] <rajkalyan> i cant reboot my laptop
[01:39] <lgc> ZERO_SHIFT, then you install your Linux and it installs some grub info on the MBR.
[01:39] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: ok ive installed it and now im configuring xorg.conf. should i do anything referred to appendix d?
[01:39] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: well it says to double click it to run it what does it do just shows the terminal and closes?
[01:39] <tmccrary> ahh well, maybe when Cranky Coyote comes out I will be able to use my bluetooth again
[01:39] <Sepero> cweagans: There might be, it depends on your location
[01:39] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: yup
[01:40] <freewilly> yes.. yuo muyst add some thing to xorg conf to get desktopeffects working
[01:40] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: but if i run it from directory it is all kl
[01:40] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: but i wnat tor run it from desktop
[01:40] <rajkalyan> i cant reboot
[01:40] <freewilly> you have load "glx"
[01:40] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: i made the 1st changes.not those refferred to appendix d.i dont know if i must enable or disable some things

[01:41] <freewilly> Option "Composite" "Enable"
[01:41] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: since Program\Files will look like ProgramFiles not Program Files
[01:42] <freewilly> Option         "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"
[01:42] <BrightEyes`> Load "glx" yes, driver "nvidia yes"
[01:42] <freewilly> ok

[01:42] <BrightEyes`> the other 2 where should i write them?

[01:54] <freewilly> you must find a custom modeline
[01:54] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: ok that seems odd
[01:54] <freewilly> there are webpages which have utilities for this
[01:55] <maccam912> Is there a way to specify the password with sudo so that you can start a command as superuser without having to type in the password on a separate line?
[01:55] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: yeha it does cause its my fault I need to change somethign giv me a sec
[01:55] <freewilly> you need the hsync&vsync values of ur minitor\
[01:55] <freewilly> o
[01:56] <freewilly> google for "modeline" & "generator" or so
[01:56] <freewilly> & put it in xorg like i did
[01:56] <BrightEyes`> what are modeline & generator?
[01:56] <freewilly> call the mode "1280x1024_HZ"

[02:01] <mtbosworth> any thoughts?
[02:01] <Pirate_Hunter> im guessing that a no I cnat add my own custom emblem to folder or files/ what about being able to change program icons i.e. like the icon for my sym link which ive just done
[02:01] <freewilly> what u can do also is: copy the vidcard timings from your windows-nvidia setup (if u have it)
[02:01] <greg_g> Ok, I did the experiment of trying kubuntu-desktop, but, stupidly I did not use aptitude.  BUT!

[02:02] <chohmann> is there a way to do a global search in nautilus?
[02:02] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: you should be able to change the icon for the symlink try right clicking and going to properties
[02:02] <greg_g> I think all I need is someone good at regex to take out all of the stuff between the parentheses
[02:02] <foug> kitche: it seems to be bugged, i'm trying to open some .r0# files and the box is just empty space with the new and open buttons available
[02:03] <foug> kitche: even when i open a .rar the same problem happens
[02:03] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: ddi that I can only see the option for emblem which none are suitable and to chaneg the actual icon for program I cnat find it
[02:03] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: does it have a browse browse to EPSXE's folder and it should be in ther
[02:03] <Sepero> greg_g: I'm pretty good at regex, but I didn't catch the first part of your prob
[02:04] <jauio> Hello, using xmms on streaming, what is the way to see the 'author and song name' ?

[02:04] <greg_g> Sepero, Well, I have the list from Synaptic's History of what was installed when I installed kubuntu-desktop.  I wan to uninstall it, but the list has all of the version information between the ( ) so it wouldn't work too well with apt-get

[02:11] <andkore> cweagans, so is the problem cost or what?
[02:11] <BigJohnMidland> i have a question about ubuntu also, already asked 3 times and no help :)

[02:17] <BigJohnMidland> how do I run ubuntu from a usb drive?
[02:17] <LukeEkblad> OK
[02:17] <windio00> MISTERTibbs: ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso is also a live cd right?
[02:17] <kitche> BigJohnMidland: umm install it to the usb drive but the drive needs to be about 4 gigs at least unless you install a minimal system
[02:18] <delcoyote> thanks in advance to you all
[02:18] <ScottLij> if you have a smaller usb drive you can look into another distro like Damn Small Linux (DSL)
[02:18] <LukeEkblad> ok, i installed the intell one and put it on the disk and everything,  but when i turn on the computer and try to do the setup, it dosent do anything
[02:18] <MISTERTibbs> windio00, yes to both questions
[02:18] <Sepero> BigJohnMidland: Is it possible to install Ubuntu on a usbdrive?
[02:18] <freewilly> set the bios to boot from cd

[02:20] <michup> hi, how can i remove grub from mbr?
[02:20] <nexous> When I run `sudo adduser username`... It asks for room number after my full name, what do I put"
[02:21] <freewilly> at boot
[02:21] <windio00> MISTERTibbs: nope comcast has a monopoly around here
[02:21] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: the opengl screensavers doesnt work
[02:21] <freewilly> & glxgears
[02:21] <freewilly> ?
[02:21] <michup> how can i remove grub from pendrive mbr?
[02:21] <atm0sph> michup: fdisk /mbr I believe, but that'll wipe out your bootloader all together, so you may not be able to boot afterwards
[02:21] <freewilly> or "glxinfo"
[02:21] <windio00> MISTERTibbs: unless i want to go T1
[02:21] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: where should i put that and what exactly
[02:21] <MISTERTibbs> windio00, that's a bit*h
[02:21] <michup> ok
[02:21] <freewilly> in terminal
[02:22] <Sepero> michup: To remove grub, you have to install something else. You should be able to do this from inside MS.
[02:22] <atm0sph> Sepero: that's not 100% accurate
[02:22] <michup> i dont have ms
[02:22] <nexous> When I run `sudo adduser username`... It asks for room number after my full name, what do I put"
[02:22] <BrightEyes`> name of display: :0.0
[02:22] <BrightEyes`> Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[02:22] <windio00> MISTERTibbs: pretty much why our town was featured in TIME for going to offer free wireless . .. cause of companies like comcast
[02:22] <MISTERTibbs> BigJohnMidland, http://xubuntublog.wordpress.com/2007/06/17/ubuntu-feisty-on-your-usb-drive-finally/
[02:22] <BrightEyes`> and many others
[02:22] <freewilly> aha
[02:22] <freewilly> 3d is not working
[02:23] <Sepero> atm0sph: True, I didn't notice 'til after I posted that he said usb
[02:23] <atm0sph> Sepero: grub is only required to boot off of various partitions.. if Windows XP was installed previous to linux, it boots via the first few sectors on the hard drive, in which case removing grub will have it try to boot off the disk rather than the MBR
[02:23] <Pirate_Hunter> how do i instal an .rpm package?
[02:23] <larson9999> i'm a little too tempted to give gibbon a go.
[02:23] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: now what are we going to do"?
[02:23] <DerangedDingo> Is anyone here experienced with using VNC?
[02:23] <MISTERTibbs> windio00, what town?  I must have missed the Time article.
[02:23] <freewilly> did the nvidia installer give no errors?
[02:23] <delcoyote> Pirate_Hunter: you can use alien to transform it to a .deb
[02:23] <atm0sph> dere: a bit, why?
[02:23] <atm0sph> DerangedDingo: a bit
[02:23] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: yes, i think
[02:23] <Pirate_Hunter> delcoyote: tru tru
[02:23] <freewilly> what tehn
[02:23] <atm0sph> monitorize?
[02:24] <sycaz> Is it possible to use a virtual drive as a booter for Ubuntu?
[02:24] <freewilly> is the nvidia-module loaded
[02:24] <delcoyote> is it monitorize? stuck with this word doing a translation and been 10 hours
[02:24] <DerangedDingo> atm0sph: Well, I got the server to work, and I opened a port for it to use, but what happens when a client connects is they get a blank page. It opens a window, but... there's nothing there
[02:24] <freewilly> "lsmod"
[02:24] <Sepero> michup: You want to remove grub from your usb? why?
[02:24] <andrewspriggs> What's the difference between Ubuntu Feisty Fawn and Linux Mint? Does this channel only cover the former?

[02:24] <MISTERTibbs> windio00, what town u in??
[02:25] <atm0sph> DerangedDingo: did you setup the password authentication on the server side of things? you can have multiple host types...
[02:25] <michup> cose it get there accidently
[02:25] <freewilly> did you restart x
[02:25] <windio00> MISTERTibbs: well im in a suburb that wont have it
[02:25] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: yes
[02:25] <sycaz> Is it possible use a virtual drive to install Ubuntu??
[02:25] <DerangedDingo> atm0sph: yes, there is a password
[02:25] <windio00> but im in grnd rapids MI
[02:25] <reed026> anyone know how to properly set up the harddrives so I won't get the Grub 18 error when installing Ubuntu server?
[02:25] <michup> i was installing grub in my system and pendrive was plugged in
[02:25] <freewilly> are there errors in /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[02:25] <MISTERTibbs> windio00, u R scarewed!
[02:25] <michup> and grub were installed on it too
[02:26] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: yes
[02:26] <freewilly> aha
[02:26] <sycaz> Can anyone help me with burning the .iso image to a DVD-R?
[02:26] <MISTERTibbs> windio00, I heard that one of the top wireless phone companies is coming out with wimax, kind of like clearwire.
[02:26] <Sepero> michup: Grub doesn't take up any extra space. The easiest advice I can give you is, turn-off booting from usb on your computer.
[02:26] <MISTERTibbs> windio00, also heard it's to be oriented to business users.
[02:26] <windio00> MISTERTibbs: http://www.grand-rapids.mi.us/index.pl?page_id=3379
[02:26] <michup> and my boot priority is set to boot flash first so it will be annoying after reboot to unplugged pendrive first
[02:26] <sycaz> Can anyone help me with burning the .iso image to a DVD-R?
[02:26] <freewilly> paste it
[02:26] <moyer> where can i find config.log file?
[02:26] <DerangedDingo> atm0sph: My theory is that because the vnc server is acting on display :1, and Remote Desktop locks up :0, and since I'm the only user on this computer and I have only one display... there's no XSession to load
[02:26] <windio00> MISTERTibbs: i would think it would be a security nightmare
[02:26] <BrightEyes`> where?
[02:26] <michup> but there has to be some way to wipe it out
[02:26] <michup> lol
[02:27] <kitche> moyer: in the same directory as the source
[02:27] <atm0sph> DerangedDingo: did you disable guest access? and it asks you for a password?

[02:27] <sycaz> Can anyone help me with burning the .iso image to a DVD-R?
[02:27] <freewilly> look up
[02:27] <nexous> Where are the files that hold users and groups?
[02:27] <preaction> nexous: /etc/passwd; but why?
[02:27] <moyer> ubotu: thanks
[02:27] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[02:27] <sycaz> Can anyone help me with burning the .iso image to a DVD-R?
[02:27] <DerangedDingo> atm0sph: Yes. I did, and it prompts for a password, and once the client enters it it loads but doesn't load an Xsession
[02:27] <preaction> nexous: add /etc/group to that as well

[02:27] <Sepero> michup: I could tell you how to do it with `cat` or `dd`, but I'm not sure of the exact location and size grub installs to.
[02:28] <kitche> sycaz: what's so hard with opening your burning program then going to open then to the iso?
[02:28] <MISTERTibbs> windio00, clearwire claims no major security breaches
[02:28] <michup> i try use fdisk /mbr but it says unable open /mbr
[02:28] <mon^rch> where can i start a shell command at x startup without it asking for su privs? :/
[02:28] <nexous> preaction: Copied /home/user1 to /home/user2, changed home dir for user1 to /home/user2, then created a new user, didnt have admin, removed him, created a new but didnt set as admin, So, i might just enable root login for a second and modify via GUI

[02:29] <freewilly> ..looking..
[02:29] <atm0sph> DerangedDingo: VNC won't actually load an xsession - you need to be logged into whatever machine is hosting thge server .. VNC just RELAYS the graphical output over a network connection.. so that COULD be your problem
[02:30] <windio00> MISTERTibbs: hmmm but security is from all the way from the sender to the receiver . . . there would be something
[02:30] <kitche> StrongArm: what is the errors that you are getting
[02:30] <atm0sph> DerangedDingo: essentially, say you're on a windows machine and you wanna connect to a linux machine, you need to have your XSession OPEN on the linux machine...
[02:30] <ScottLij> What does it mean when a process is "defunct" in "ps -A"?
[02:30] <majortom> trangle
[02:30] <freewilly> you must remove all instances of "dri" in xorg.conf
[02:30] <majortom> stupid machines
[02:30] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: wait.then?
[02:30] <freewilly> it says it loads it, which may not

[02:35] <freewilly> the driver is correct installed
[02:35] <Sepero> michup: Did you erase your pendrive?
[02:35] <StrongArm> how can I stop and start the cdrom volume controller
[02:35] <andkore> anyone have any ideas? ^^
[02:35] <kitche> nexous: by running the commands you locked yurself out completely from admin commands though have to use the livecd to fix it
[02:35] <StrongArm> how can I stop and start the cdrom controller
[02:35] <pi3> !rpm
[02:35] <ubotu> RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[02:35] <nexous> kitche: alright thanks.,
[02:36] <user_> hey, guys, the comand for installing a programm is "sudo apt-get install programm" but for uninstalling, is it "sudo apt-get uninstall programm"? or... ?:)

[02:36] <andkore> that should be in the man page...

[02:37] <michup> Sepero, yes it worked thx
[02:37] <rixxon> The quality of video and audio sucks in ubuntu compared to my previous archlinux installation, am I missing something?
[02:37] <Sepero> michup: excellent, welcome
[02:37] <LukeEkblad> When I put the cd with ubuntu in my computer then restart it, the ubuntu thing comes up.  Then when I click the install thing, it disent do anything
[02:37] <pi3> how do I run a .in?
[02:38] <StrongArm> how can I stop and start the cdrom volume manager controller
[02:38] <chapium> LukeEkblad: did you try safe install?
[02:38] <Sepero> Anyone have experience with Makefile's? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27696/
[02:38] <LukeEkblad> whats that?
[02:38] <chapium> LukeEkblad: there should be several different options that appear.  One of which is a safe installer
[02:38] <DerangedDingo> atm0sph: Sorry for the pause. But the machine is running X! I'm not.. well, you know. And I'm trying to connect two Linux machines, incase that helps too.
[02:39] <LukeEkblad> ya, i did
[02:39] <btanner> got disconnected
[02:39] <LukeEkblad> I did every option and nothing happened
[02:39] <j0nas`> is there a thread for installing compiz-fusion?

[02:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about compiz-fusion - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:39] <LukeEkblad> well, sometimes this thing would come up then stop at like 70%
[02:39] <kitche> j0nas`: maybe but check their website
[02:39] <Sepero> StrongArm: There may be an option for that in System -> Preferences or Administration. Or you can shut off almost all auto hardware control by removing dbus from your system.
[02:39] <andrewspriggs> Are there any steps needed to blacklist bcm43xx other than adding "blacklist bcm43xx" to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist?

[02:39] <j0nas`> kitche: what is their website?
[02:40] <kitche> j0nas`: opencompositing.org for now

[02:41] <freewilly> paste the last xorglog
[02:41] <MarcN> btanner: also depends on the particular video chipset -- 'onboard' is not enough.
[02:41] <LukeEkblad> I tryed safe mode install or wtever and it dident work eather
[02:41] <OneTimer> is there a specific channel for help with video/resolution settings?
[02:41] <gnychis> i cannot seem to get Ubuntu to boot my software RAID-0, even though I configured it and set it up using the installer... I keep getting an 'mdadm: No devices listed in conf file were found.' error.... i would greatly appreciate any help
[02:41] <AaronShaf> I have a VPS account with 512mb dedicated to me, and when I start the server fresh (no apps like apache or mysql running) and run "top" I see this: Mem: 8300032k total, 8273032k used, 27000k free, 514436k buffers ... what does this mean? What is "buffers"?

[02:41] <delcoyote> Pirate_Hunter: install is my suggestion
[02:41] <fisherhome> anybody feel like seeing an incredible photograph of a frog?
[02:41] <dg10050> so uh, I was installing Ubuntu a few days ago, and it turns out the CD was messed up and the installer crashed while resizing my NTFS partition and....the partition is gone. I managed to reburn Ubuntu several times and eventually get a working install, but I was wondering if there may be some hope for my XP partition. Any ideas on how to get it back?
[02:41] <freewilly> do you get no working x at all?
[02:41] <chapium> LukeEkblad: what exactly happens?  Screen just goes black?
[02:41] <yurimxpxman> with inkscape, is there any way to make a certain portion of an image transparent throughout all of the layers in that area?

[02:42] <MarcN> AaronShaf: disk cache typically
[02:42] <Pirate_Hunter> delcoyote whats the command to strat crossover through terminal
[02:42] <systest> anyone know the clean way to disable the avahi stuff?  It doesn't follow any linux convention I'm aware of
[02:42] <delcoyote> dont use crossover Pirate_Hunter
[02:42] <OneTimer> Sepero, thank you sir
[02:42] <andrewspriggs> Are there any steps needed to blacklist bcm43xx other than adding "blacklist bcm43xx" to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist?
[02:42] <wepeel> Is there a D&D type game similar to Baldur's gate games that runs well on Ubuntu?
[02:42] <Pirate_Hunter> delcoyote: hrm would you be able to find if you cnat how can i find out

[02:42] <tiko> hi, when I go to Import folder in Rythmbox, nothing gets added...? What can i do?
[02:42] <preaction> !spam | fisherhome
[02:42] <ubotu> fisherhome: Unsure how you should behave on this channel? See !AskTheBot, !CoC, !Guidelines, !Offtopic, !Language, !Attitude, !Repeat, !Enter, !Paste, !NickSpam - and most importantly, use common sense :-)
[02:42] <luisbg> everytime I boot the computer I have to introduce a command to set the minimum fan speed, where do you recommend me to put this command so it's automatically done every time I boot?
[02:43] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: x was not working and when i deleted that log file it worked
[02:43] <Pirate_Hunter> fisherhome: isnt that called spamming & off topic to this channel?
[02:43] <fisherhome> its not spam
[02:43] <Praxx> Realtek High Definition Audio codec. Is there anyway to get sound using this card?  (using F.Fawn)
[02:43] <chapium> anyone know how logging out of gnome could cause the system to hang?
[02:43] <fisherhome> i'm sorry
[02:43] <fisherhome> i wont do it again
[02:43] <fisherhome> just thought it was a nice photo
[02:43] <MarcN> AaronShaf: frequently used information is kept in memory incase it is needed in the future.  A good and common thing for operating systems to do.
[02:43] <delcoyote> Pirate_Hunter:  did you try ./crossover? or something like that?
[02:43] <DerangedDingo> luisbg: ~/.config/autostart
[02:43] <luisbg> DerangedDingo, it has to run as root
[02:43] <Pirate_Hunter> delcoyote: nope just tried crossover
[02:43] <freewilly> strange, the log says it loads nvidia driver without probs
[02:44] <delcoyote> Pirate_Hunter: try with ./crossover
[02:44] <tiko> Rythmbox doesnt add my songs, can I get some help?
[02:44] <dg10050> anyone have any idea on restoring an NTFS partition?
[02:44] <Pirate_Hunter> delcoyote: do i ahve to be in root to do this
[02:44] <fisherhome> dg10050: from within ubuntu?
[02:44] <DerangedDingo> use /root/.config/autostart i guess....
[02:44] <freewilly> mb try removing the "composite" extension
[02:44] <LukeEkblad> The screen dident go black, it just eather froze or dident do anything
[02:44] <luisbg> DerangedDingo, ok thanks
[02:44] <freewilly> from xorgconf
[02:44] <delcoyote> try Pirate if it doesnt run try with sudo
[02:44] <pmcnabb> when using --exclude with rsync, does that exclude both local and remote files/directories?
[02:45] <delcoyote> try Pirate_Hunter if it doesnt run try with sudo
[02:45] <pmcnabb> i.e. the combination of --delete and --exclude mydir would not delete mydir if it's local?
[02:45] <FallenAA> nalioth is a cock sucker who fucks his mom in the ass just so u all know

[02:45] <andrewspriggs> Are there any steps needed to blacklist bcm43xx other than adding "blacklist bcm43xx" to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist?
[02:45] <rixxon> The quality of video and audio sucks in ubuntu compared to my previous archlinux installation, am I missing something?
[02:45] <freewilly> your hsync /vsync are not correct
[02:45] <DerangedDingo> luisbg: sorry.. i don't totally know if that would work though.. it might not only start if you log in as root if you do that. Did you try just adding a sudo command to startup programs under System > Preferences > Sessions?

[02:46] <fisherhome> well i can probably help you get it back from within a windows installation but ubuntu i'm kind of lost.. i bet however that once it's restore and functional, ubuntu will see it properly
[02:46] <luisbg> DerangedDingo, it will at least ask for the pass if it works
[02:46] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: there wasnt any composite in xorg.conf

[02:46] <bluefox83> hey, anyone in here know how to install a parallel port scanner?
[02:46] <__mikem> he did
[02:46] <gnomefreak> __mikem: its been handled is what nalioth is saying
[02:47] <DerangedDingo> luisbg: that's right.. forgot
[02:47] <__mikem> Sorry
[02:47] <Pirate_Hunter> it seems to be installed but not showing on apps and i cnat find the cxoffice folder which should be in home - stupid rpm folder, stupid .deb package that has conflicts
[02:47] <delcoyote> ubote youre the best! and you dont sweat!
[02:47] <freewilly> find mb the right h&vrefreshrates for ur monitor
[02:47] <fisherhome> anyone have any recommendations for installing ubuntu onto a 64 bit machine using SATA raid?
[02:47] <bluefox83> i got my buddy's system to say there's a scanner there with the sane-find-scanner option... but the dang thing wont show up in Sane
[02:47] <LukeEkblad> SOOO,  noone can help me with my problem?
[02:47] <OneTimer> I am rerunning my xorg setup with my new gfx card....how do i tell it to look at the AGP slot because it is defaulting me to PCI:1:0:0
[02:47] <nexous> If I'm running 7.04 and using a 6.10 live cd can I edit my broken 7.04 system?
[02:48] <freewilly> that is agp
[02:48] <delcoyote> Pirate_Hunter: why not give a try to Automatix?
[02:48] <freewilly> the first pci
[02:48] <OneTimer> oh ok thanks freewilly
[02:48] <luisbg> DerangedDingo, adding it to /etc/rc.local to see if it works
[02:48] <freewilly> in linuxlingo
[02:48] <andrewspriggs> Are there any steps needed to blacklist bcm43xx other than adding "blacklist bcm43xx" to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist?
[02:48] <bluefox83> OneTimer, lspci, find the card, then tell it where-ever that says..but PCI:1:0:0 looks right to me
[02:48] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: what can i do now?
 fisherhome: not necessarily, but it would be convenient
[02:48] <EADG_> Automatix | Pirate_Hunter
[02:48] <Pirate_Hunter> delcoyote: that crossover is not premium this one is thats why im using this one but this time im having installation problems
[02:48] <kitche> !automatix | really shouldn't suggest it in here
[02:48] <jscinoz> I have an application which requires the mozilla suite to render pages, since this can no longer be installed, is it possible to redirect it to use firefox for rendering pages?
[02:48] <ubotu> really shouldn't suggest it in here: 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
[02:48] <freewilly> well..im baffled -)
[02:48] <fisherhome> yes i know, i replied to you friend..
[02:48] <fisherhome> "well i can probably help you get it back from within a windows installation but ubuntu i'm kind of lost.. i bet however that once it's restore and functional, ubuntu will see it properly"
[02:49] <freewilly> but you have x running
[02:49] <delcoyote> Pirate_Hunter: check the web for installation notes about crossover premium
[02:49] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: in system settings->monitor&display->hardware it writes nv not nvidia
[02:49] <kitche> jscinoz: use seamonkey instead
[02:50] <dg10050> fisherhome: oh sorry, well, this is kinda the partition with Windows. I'm fine with reinstalling XP, but I'd like to get my Documents folder at least
[02:50] <freewilly> it must be nvidia
[02:50] <Sepero> Anyone have experience with Makefile's? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27696/
[02:50] <freewilly> no nv
[02:50] <jscinoz> kitche, seamonkey is no longer available in the ubuntu repositories
[02:50] <Pirate_Hunter> delcoyote: doing that now
[02:50] <atm0sph> so I'm tryign to install 7.04 and it's stalling out at formatting the partition - it's been stuck at 5% for a while now..
[02:50] <LukeEkblad> Ok, i'll say this for like the 4th time..  Ahem*   I download ubuntu from website>  I put it onto a cd > I put it in my computer and restart it > screen comes up > No matter what I click, nothing happens.    Pleas help, I really wana use ubuntu!
[02:50] <andrewspriggs> Are there any steps needed to blacklist bcm43xx other than adding "blacklist bcm43xx" to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist?
[02:50] <delcoyote> good luck Pirate_Hunter :-D
[02:50] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: theres no just nvidia
[02:50] <jscinoz> LukeEkblad, did you burn the iso or did you just drag and drop it to hte CD?
[02:51] <LukeEkblad> burn
[02:51] <LukeEkblad> with the program they said
[02:51] <Praxx> is there a place where one can see if a certain make/hardware works on Ubuntu or any linux distro. Realtek Audio does not seem to work on Ubu and I have no OS can someone please guide me.
[02:51] <fisherhome> are you using windows right now?
[02:51] <Pirate_Hunter> delcoyote: it seems since moving to ubuntu i keep depednign on luck lol
[02:51] <jscinoz> Lukeekblad, does the ubuntu screen come up?
[02:51] <LukeEkblad> yes windows
[02:51] <LukeEkblad> yes
[02:51] <LukeEkblad> it comes up
[02:51] <MarcN> LukeEkblad: when you put the CD into a windows box, what happens?  Do  you see ubuntu....iso or a bunch of files?
[02:51] <LukeEkblad> ubuntu screen
[02:51] <OneTimer> Now when i am rerunning the xorg setup, how do i go back a screen?
[02:51] <jscinoz> and what happens when you press enter with "Start or install Ubuntu" selected?
[02:51] <kitche> jscinoz: hmm guess not guess you could use firefox since they use the same rendering engine for pages
[02:51] <delcoyote> Pirate_Hunter: i must be covered with four leave clovers then :-D
[02:52] <LukeEkblad> it
[02:52] <freewilly> i told you all i know..-)
[02:52] <LukeEkblad> it eather goes to 70% or dose nothing
[02:52] <BrightEyes`> ok thanks
[02:52] <jscinoz> kitche, is there a command i can add to my app launch script to redirect the libs, like MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=...?
[02:52] <andrer> anyone know if it is possible (and what are the effects) of setting multiple routers on the "options routers" of dhcpd? will the clients first try the first router and then move to the second if #1 is down?
[02:52] <mapez> hey
[02:52] <mapez> haha
[02:52] <freewilly> linux can be tricky
[02:52] <Pirate_Hunter> delcoyote: rofl but im running skim on luck ive been abusing it
[02:53] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: converting rpm's can be bad overall anyways
[02:53] <freewilly> but u just have to have 2 find a good xorg.conf once & use it till eternity
[02:53] <andrewspriggs> Are there any steps needed to blacklist bcm43xx other than adding "blacklist bcm43xx" to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist?
[02:53] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: since rpm is in dire need to be remade which fedora is trying to do anyhow
[02:53] <eck> for packages that pop up a menu upon being installed (e.g. the java packages, which require you to agree to the eula), are there parameters that i can pass in to apt/dpkg to pre-select my responses (so i can script installs)?
[02:53] <jscinoz> Sorry Lukeekblad i dont know anything more to help
[02:53] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: lol now im told
[02:53] <LukeEkblad> Damn it
[02:54] <Pirate_Hunter> kitche: i might asw ell uninstall it than
[02:54] <LukeEkblad> well, so much for ubuntu
[02:54] <LukeEkblad> anyone know of a better lunux os?
[02:54] <PurpZeY> !best
[02:54] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[02:54] <jscinoz> Luke, try selecting the "run in graphics compatability mode" or something to that effect
[02:54] <Vletmix> What package do I add to manipulate the more detailed settings in compiz?
[02:54] <jscinoz> Lukeekblad, what are the specs of the computer you're trying to install to?
[02:54] <LukeEkblad> I did
[02:55] <freewilly> just read some howtos/fora, try to understand the directorystructure & important configfiles
[02:55] <delcoyote> Pirate_Hunter: you made me curious i might give crossover a try
[02:55] <jscinoz> Lukeekblad, what are the specs of the computer?
[02:55] <freewilly> then u know all linux
[02:55] <bnall> any know the command to restart the clock app?
[02:55] <Pirate_Hunter> Does anyone know the command to run Crossove through terminal
[02:55] <Pirate_Hunter> delcoyote: plz do so that way you cna help me out
[02:56] <Pirate_Hunter> Does anyone know the command to run *Crossover through terminal
[02:56] <LukeEkblad> The specks?   um,  Intell Centrino Due.  Windows vista.  1024 mb ram,
[02:56] <andrewspriggs> Are there any steps needed to blacklist bcm43xx other than adding "blacklist bcm43xx" to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist?
[02:56] <LukeEkblad> I duno
[02:57] <Sepero> LukeEkblad: Are you running a 64bit system?
[02:57] <jscinoz> Lukeekblad, so you say it goes to a progress bar and hangs at ~70%?
[02:57] <LukeEkblad> well, the first progress bar, i forget what it says
[02:57] <LukeEkblad> not a 64.... 32
[02:57] <delcoyote> Pirate_Hunter: i will but i will use automatix :-S
[02:58] <kitche> delcoyote: well considering that crossover is commerical most likely automatix won't have it unless it's the demo
[02:58] <bnall> my clock app stopped - need to command to restart it
[02:58] <Pirate_Hunter> delcoyote: well it dont matter as long as you cna help me intall macromedia as it is the hardest soft to install through mime & crossover
[02:59] <JJNova> Could someone please impart upon me the glorious command that resets Ubuntu's screen resolution? I would like to make some changes.
[03:00] <andrewspriggs> Are there any steps needed to blacklist bcm43xx other than adding "blacklist bcm43xx" to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist?
[03:00] <freewilly> just remove the module
[03:00] <Vletmix> JJNova, reset?.. you may wish to open a terminal an: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:00] <ponicg> Hello
[03:00] <JJNova> Vletmix, This is a command that opens a GUI which is similar to the initial install.
[03:01] <andrewspriggs> freewilly: ok, even though I rmmod bcm43xx, it says there is no such module
[03:01] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter: which macromedia?
[03:01] <LukeEkblad> um,  I installed the ubuntu for 64 bit systems and intell
[03:01] <delcoyote> Pirate_Hunter: cant now in the middle of a translation, kitche i have loads of friends in the shops :-D
[03:01] <LukeEkblad> Was that the wrong one?
[03:01] <Sepero> bnall: The gnome clock is an applet. Have you tried right-clicking on the panel?
[03:01] <kitche> delcoyote: in the shops?
[03:01] <delcoyote> aslo automatix is not the correct version since i upgraded :-D you took my four leave clover Pirate_Hunter! :-D
[03:01] <pyrak> how do i open that disk partitioning tool that you see in the installation process?
[03:01] <delcoyote> in the commerce* kitche
[03:01] <Sepero> LukeEkblad: If your system is 32bit, then you must install the x86 CD
[03:01] <LukeEkblad> the wuh?
[03:01] <jrib> pyrak: use gparted
[03:01] <Sepero> LukeEkblad: Not the 64bit CD
[03:01] <JJNova> The user then selects everything as if setting the display for the first time.
[03:01] <reacocard> Does reformatting a partition change its UUID?
[03:01] <Vletmix> ahh. sorry, don't know
[03:01] <LukeEkblad> but it says 64 ot intell
[03:01] <Sepero> LukeEkblad: The x86 CD is for 32bit systems.
[03:01] <freewilly> rmmod just unloads it i thought
[03:01] <LukeEkblad> I got an intell centrino
[03:01] <Pirate_Hunter> delcoyote: hey cnat balme me were on the same boat, been abuisng lady luck >:-)
[03:02] <pyrak> jrib, i cant find it
[03:02] <ponicg> Hmm - I actually have a question - Every time I login to my 6.10 Ubuntu laptop
[03:02] <Pirate_Hunter> blame
[03:02] <freewilly> delete it from disk
[03:02] <ponicg> It tells me that my X settings differ from my Gnome settings and which do I want to use
[03:02] <Frogzoo> reacocard: yes
[03:02] <jrib> pyrak: did you install the "gparted" package in synaptic, or do you mean you can't find it there?
[03:02] <delcoyote> it will come back Pirate_Hunter! :-D hehe
[03:02] <freewilly> or rplace
[03:02] <ponicg> I know I changed the X settings - where do I change the Gnome ones to match/
[03:02] <reacocard> Frogzoo: thanks
[03:02] <andrewspriggs> freewilly: o_0 how do I delete it from the disk? I don't even know where it is...
[03:02] <Frogzoo> reacocard: blkid
[03:02] <freewilly> aha!
[03:02] <freewilly> the first step find the location
[03:02] <pyrak> jrib, naw, i figered i should have already had it, now im getting it off synaptic, thanks
[03:02] <Vletmix> ponicg, gnome will just use whatever X is set to
[03:02] <jscinoz> What environment variable can i use to force an application that normally uses Seamonkey to render pages to use firefox instead?
[03:03] <Sepero> LukeEkblad: It may say 64bit or Intel, because originally only AMD had 64bit systems.
[03:03] <LukeEkblad> so, if i have a intell centrino, install the other one sntead?
[03:03] <Praxx> anyone know if Realtek High Defintiton card even works on Linux? Can someone help me
[03:03] <Sepero> LukeEkblad: The x86 CD is for 32bit systems.
[03:03] <Pirate_Hunter> delcoyote: you mean she and i just wished to knwo wheer crossover is installed it seems that synaptic cna see it installed but the directory has changed damit well will try and insatll office 2003 and see what happens
[03:03] <reacocard> Frogzoo: cool, thanks
[03:03] <TwigEther> .
[03:03] <freewilly> mb in /lib/modules/kernel-->
[03:03] <LukeEkblad> ok, i'm installing the other one
[03:03] <kitche> Praxx: feisty seems to have a bug with them
[03:03] <paulo> I can't Install FLEX using ADEPT, I receive a message telling it would corrupt a package if installed..Anyone can help me ?
[03:04] <andrewspriggs> freewilly: ok, will check on my next reboot
[03:04] <Sepero> LukeEkblad: Best of luck
[03:04] <ponicg> No Vletmix
[03:04] <ponicg> It pops up a box
[03:04] <LukeEkblad> thanks =)
[03:04] <ponicg> and it asks if i want to use X settings or Gnome's settings - it's related to the keyboard - I configured it to use my windows key as the superkey(in /etc/X11/xorg.conf)
[03:04] <TwigEther> Anyone here played with nbd-server and nbd-client before?
[03:04] <Praxx> kitche, can it be fixed at all. Does any Linux distro work with it. I have been trying for a year :( frustated and lost
[03:04] <fornwall_> justyb: /quit
[03:04] <Pirate_Hunter> will try rebooting to find out if anything changes brb
[03:05] <LukeEkblad> so, Standard personal computer (x86.  not 64bit AMD and Intel computers?  even if i have an intell centrino
[03:05] <bluemoon_> anyone know how to fix sound broken after update
[03:06] <Kyle123> Hey guys, does anyone know the command to restart the GUI installer after you do the "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg" since after you do that reconfigure for the graphic driver it drops you off at the command prompt.
[03:06] <bluemoon_> yo anyone know how to fix my busted sound?
[03:06] <pyrak> jrib, now why wont it let me delete/resize any partitions
[03:06] <bulmer> Kyle123: /etc/init.d/gdm start
[03:06] <sparr> how can i avoid clamav upgrade warnings in my cron output?  without updating clamav more often than packaging allows
[03:06] <pyrak> except linux swap on one external
[03:06] <LukeEkblad>   I have another question.  why ubuntu instead of vista? cuz i alredy have vista
[03:07] <jrib> pyrak: they can't be mounted, you should use a live cd
[03:07] <ponicg> Hmm Luke
[03:07] <jrib> LukeEkblad: try both and use what works for you
[03:07] <Kyle123> bulmer: that will work even if i have not installed yet ?
[03:07] <ponicg> What's your goal in going to Ubuntu?
[03:07] <pyrak> jrib, but i'm talking about partitions on an external drive
[03:07] <LukeEkblad> whats better about ubuntu?
[03:07] <ponicg> I find it's more stable
[03:07] <bulmer> Kyle123: you expect something to work if not installed yet?
[03:07] <ponicg> and more powerful.... I can do more with it.
[03:07] <eboyjr> How can you run commands on Ubuntu startup?
[03:07] <Sepero> Praxx: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=com.ubuntu:en-US:official&hs=26j&q=+site:ubuntuforums.org+ubuntu+Realtek+high+def
[03:07] <LukeEkblad> my goal...somthing new?
[03:07] <jrib> !startup > eboyjr (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:07] <pyrak> jrib, theres a little lock next o the partition
[03:08] <LukeEkblad> explain
[03:08] <jrib> pyrak: because it is mounted I think.  You need to use a live cd
[03:08] <ponicg> well, Luke, it's easier to configure every little thing in Ubuntu as compared to Windows.
[03:08] <ponicg> I run both Vista(desktop) and Ubuntu(laptop)
[03:08] <andkore> hey guys i have a problem. i'm trying to make an ubuntu CD and when I open it with magiciso it's fine, i see all the files, but when i burn it with cdburn.exe or magiciso (using the burn iso tool), when it's done and i browse to the CD, it's empty, but the CD isn't blank :(
[03:08] <bluemoon_> my sound is broken after update :(
[03:08] <eboyjr> jrib: I didn't get a private message from ubotu...
[03:08] <Kyle123> bulmer: i load the installer for Ubuntu GUI installer, it gives me an error, i reconfigure the driver to the correct one, and it drops me at the command prompt screen and i dont knwo the command to restart the Installer using the correct graphic driver
[03:08] <Praxx> Sepero, i looked around quite a bit but none offer a solution
[03:08] <jrib> !ping
[03:08] <ubotu> pong
[03:08] <jmchaffie> hi all, I guess because it should be simple, I haven't found the answer online.... HOW DO I login to my GUI as root?
[03:08] <freewilly> linux doesnt put restrictions on the user
[03:08] <pyrak> jrib, one more thing, when i try to unmount the disks, they unmount then mount right back again, how do i fix this/
[03:08] <jmchaffie> it says the admin can't login at this screen?
[03:09] <jrib> pyrak: what disk?
[03:09] <ponicg> The other thing I like, LukeEkblad, is that ubuntu seems to run faster for me.
[03:09] <jrib> jmchaffie: that's a terrible idea and you should never need to log into the GUI as root.  Why do you think you need to?
[03:09] <LukeEkblad> cool
[03:09] <LukeEkblad> Whats gnome?
[03:09] <eboyjr> jrib: !startup | eboyjr
[03:09] <pyrak> jrib, external hard drives connected by usb
[03:09] <jrib> eboyjr: still nothing?
[03:09] <jmchaffie> because I need to setup network permissions between my samba network
[03:10] <jrib> pyrak: hmm, I don't know of a nice way to do it... I guess you could try killing gnome-volume-manager?
[03:10] <jmchaffie> it's not allowing me to do it myself... having trouble getting it to work
[03:10] <eboyjr> jrib: nope..
[03:10] <ponicg> Gnome is the window manager
[03:10] <jrib> jmchaffie: do you know about sudo?
[03:10] <ponicg> Well, one of them.
[03:10] <Kyle123> bulmer: you know what i mean now ?
[03:10] <jrib> !startup | eboyjr
[03:10] <ubotu> eboyjr: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot
[03:10] <pyrak> jrib, actually it says "cannot eject volume"
[03:10] <jmchaffie> I can see out, can browse out, others can see my machine, but not get in to browse
[03:10] <ponicg> I use gnome, some people use KDE, some use others
[03:10] <pyrak> and i dont have anything from it running or anything
[03:10] <jmchaffie> yes I know about sudo... but not beyond simple commands from shell...
[03:10] <johndoc> ok so on my laptop when i plug headphones in i get sound from the headphones and the internal speakers at the same time
[03:10] <eboyjr> thanks, jrib!
[03:10] <johndoc> any ideas?
[03:11] <jrib> jmchaffie: so what do you need to do exactly as root? edit a file?  run a program?
[03:11] <bulmer> Kyle123: no not really..you loaded a driver and you configured it? am not even sure you can configure a driver
[03:11] <jmchaffie> I know about sudo -i also.. etc..
[03:11] <jmchaffie> I need to edit permissions on a shared folder...
[03:11] <UbuntuNewbies> Hey, my ubuntu boots all up to where it's loading the login window, but it never gets past that point.. ANy one?
[03:11] <lgc> ZERO_SHIFT, you there?
[03:11] <jrib> pyrak: try in a terminal: sudo umount /dev/whatever
[03:11] <paulo> I can't Install FLEX using ADEPT, I receive a message telling it would corrupt a package if installed..Anyone can help me ?
[03:11] <jmchaffie> to allow unrestricted access... so others can see it over the network.. no passwords required...
[03:11] <jrib> jmchaffie: so 'sudo chmod /path/to/folder' no?
[03:12] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: ok now it worked:) now... adept -> beryl ? do i need any passowrds?
[03:12] <freewilly> see?
[03:12] <Kyle123> bulmer: the GUI installer gives me a graphical error, i did the reconfigre to a different driver, but after i do that it leaves me at the command prompt screen all text, and i dont know the command to start the installer over using the driver i selected and not the default driver, and no at this point nothign has been installed yet
[03:12] <bulmer> UbuntuNewbies: press ctrl+F1 and see whats going on during boot
[03:12] <jrib> jmchaffie: see whatever it is that you want to do after you login as root can be done as sudo.  It's much safer this way
[03:12] <LukeEkblad> ok, dose ubuntu do that 4 destops thing?
[03:12] <freewilly> just install beryl
[03:12] <UbuntuNewbies> allright.. lemme try that bulmer :-)
[03:12] <jrib> LukeEkblad: as many as you want...
[03:13] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: ok done.now?
[03:13] <jmchaffie> Yes, but I'm not sure which switches to use... which one's will make it work, but not cause issues.. see my point? I'm not the least experienced you'll come accross.. but not the most either ;)
[03:13] <freewilly> composite must be in xorgconf
[03:13] <LukeEkblad> cool
[03:13] <ponicg> Anyone know about the X vs Gnome keyboard configs? I have reconfigured my X (/etc/X11/xorg.conf)'s keyboard configs... where is the gnome keyboard config stored?
[03:13] <Sepero> LukeEkblad: Don't install it. You're obviously not ready.
[03:13] <jrib> !permissions > jmchaffie (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:13] <LukeEkblad> but dose it do that cube thing?
[03:13] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: restart x server? whats composite?
[03:13] <jmchaffie> thanks
[03:13] <ponicg> Sepero: Don't be so rude.
[03:13] <freewilly> the composite extension
[03:13] <bulmer> Kyle123: i dont know.
[03:13] <jrib> jmchaffie: if you need to use the file manager as root you can do 'gksudo nautilus' but close it right after you are done
[03:13] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: what do u mean
[03:13] <ponicg> LukeEkblad: That's cube thing is Beryl, Compiz, or Compiz-Fusion... it's actually a program - not a function of the OS
[03:13] <eboyjr> What is the difference between gksudo and sudo?
[03:14] <norman_> just anyone tried alpha 2 ,how do i get compiz fusion going
[03:14] <jrib> !gksudo > eboyjr (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:14] <LukeEkblad> so, it dosent come with it?
[03:14] <Sepero> LukeEkblad: I suggest you do some research and find out why yourself. Then install Linux, otherwise you'll just end up another complainer about how Linux isn't ready for this or that....
[03:14] <Jordan_U> LukeEkblad, To turn on Desktop effects ( If your card supports it ) go to System -> Preferences -> Desktop Effects
[03:14] <eboyjr> Thanks, again jrib
[03:14] <LukeEkblad> cool
[03:14] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: i cant see any composite extension in xorg.conf
[03:15] <ponicg> !gnome > ponicg
[03:15] <LukeEkblad> If i install it dose my vista get deleated?
[03:15] <gnomefreak> norman_: gutsy is in #ubuntu+1
[03:15] <freewilly> Section "Extensions"
[03:15] <freewilly>    Option "Composite" "Enable"
[03:15] <freewilly> EndSection
[03:15] <Jordan_U> LukeEkblad, No, just resize your Vista partition and install Ubuntu on a seperate one
[03:15] <ponicg> gnomefreak: Any help? where can I find the Gnome config(where I can edit my keyboard config) similiar to what I did in Xorg.conf?
[03:15] <jmchaffie> ok thanks. I will try it from shell first.. need to know anyway for future reference, but will go to naut if I have to... hopefully that is all it is.
[03:15] <Jordan_U> !dualboot | LukeEkblad
[03:16] <ubotu> LukeEkblad: Dual boot instructions:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo (x86/AMD64) - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot (Macintosh)
[03:16] <LukeEkblad> how do i do that?
[03:16] <pyrak> jrib: awesome, unmounting from terminal works fine, now i need some advice: how ought i to format this drive that'll just be used as backup storage?  It'd be nice if the drive could be read by windows
[03:16] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: that and restart X?
[03:16] <freewilly> y
[03:16] <pyrak> jrib: should i just format it as ntfs?
[03:16] <Sepero> LukeEkblad: If you wanna easy test of Ubuntu, use wubi. It's virtually zero-install.
[03:16] <jrib> pyrak: format it as ext3.  That way you will retain your permissions.  windows can read ext3 if you install a driver (see ubotu)
[03:16] <jrib> !ext3 > pyrak (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:16] <Sepero> !wubi | LukeEkblad
[03:16] <ubotu> LukeEkblad: wubi is an unofficial Ubuntu installer for Windows users - more info is at http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[03:16] <Stormx2> pyrak: ext3 would be best.
[03:16] <LukeEkblad> wubi?
[03:17] <LukeEkblad> Wtf is that and why is it better?
[03:17] <Sepero> Anyone have experience with Makefile's? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27696/
[03:17] <pyrak> thanks for your advice!
[03:17] <Sepero> LukeEkblad: http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[03:18] <vip3rousmango> I'm trying to play MP3's in XMMS and I keep getting a "Couldn't Open Audio" error message. I have all the gstreamer codex, anyone know what causes this problem?
[03:18] <ponicg> Hmm I have another question - Why sometimes on the first time my X server starts(on boot) does my mouse move and can click, but they keyboard refuses to enter input anywhere... I have to ctrl-alt-backspace and relogin...
[03:18] <ponicg> and then it's fine
[03:18] <madman91> is it normal for rsync to slow down my computer while performing a simple local backup?
[03:18] <Stormx2> vip3rousmango: xmms doesn't use gstreamer. It's also outdated, but if you want to use it, do a search in synaptic for "xmms", there will be an appropriate package.
[03:19] <UbuntuNewbies> bulmer: there's no message at all when it's started up.. Everything is marked with [OK]  and no problem with loading.. However, the marked continues blinking like it's working, but nothing happends, not even in two hours.
[03:19] <Stormx2> UbuntuNewbies: What does it get stuck on? have you tried recovery mode?
[03:19] <Sepero> madman91: That can be normal. You may wish to lower the priority of the process with `nice` or `renice` programs.
[03:19] <Stormx2> UbuntuNewbies: I assume you're talking about boot-up, yeah?
[03:20] <Jordan_U> LukeEkblad, Sorry, lost my wireless connection, did you get my last message about dual booting?
[03:20] <madman91> Sepero: thanks
[03:20] <LukeEkblad> the link?
[03:20] <UbuntuNewbies> Stormx2 yeah, it's getting stuck right before it's about to load the login window. However, the cursor is blinking and everything seems ok, but it never loads next window
[03:20] <Jordan_U> LukeEkblad, Yes
[03:20] <LukeEkblad> yesh
[03:20] <LukeEkblad> i think
[03:20] <Stormx2> UbuntuNewbies: Okay.
[03:20] <homerhomer> anyone have a deb for rhythmbox 11.1?
[03:21] <Sepero> LukeEkblad: Use wubi. You'll be much happier in the end if you decide Ubuntu's not for you.
[03:21] <LukeEkblad> how so?
[03:21] <Stormx2> UbuntuNewbies: Load up recovery mode (from the GRUB menu) and look into the X log.
[03:21] <Stormx2> UbuntuNewbies: It will be in /var/log. How much experience with linux have you had?
[03:21] <UbuntuNewbies> Stormx2 when trying to load up in safe mode, the problem is still there..
[03:21] <Sepero> LukeEkblad: because unlike regular Ubuntu, wubi has a simple uninstaller.
[03:22] <Stormx2> UbuntuNewbies: Can you hit Ctrl + Alt + F1?
[03:22] <Stormx2> UbuntuNewbies: Does that do anything?
[03:22] <UbuntuNewbies> Stormx2 I'm not a pro, but I know howto edit the config files, if you route me through it roughly :-)
[03:22] <LukeEkblad> oh
[03:22] <Jordan_U> LukeEkblad, It doesn't require creating a new partition and therefore is easier to remove ( it's just a file on your Vista partition ) but it is still Beta
[03:22] <LukeEkblad> well, i'm alredy like 2 hours into my install
[03:22] <UbuntuNewbies> Stormx2 yeah, the last message on the screen is Loading boot script [OK]  or something..
[03:23] <Pirate_Hunter> Im back yeah it was working but all it needed was a restart so yeah crossover works fine and .rpm cna be converted without scripts noob got luck :-o
[03:23] <Frogzoo> Jordan_U: what is?
[03:23] <Jordan_U> Frogzoo, wubi, see Sepero's comment
[03:23] <ponicg> 2 Hours?
[03:23] <ponicg> wow
[03:23] <bulmer> UbuntuNewbies: press ctrl+alt+f1 again and see the sequence of steps
[03:23] <Stormx2> UbuntuNewbies: Okay. Ctrl + Alt + F2, does that give you the option to log in?
[03:23] <Frogzoo> Jordan_U: thx
[03:24] <UbuntuNewbies> Stormx2 already logged in as root and I'm in /var/log
[03:24] <Sepero> Frogzoo: http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[03:24] <Sepero> Anyone have experience with Makefile's? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27696/
[03:24] <Stormx2> UbuntuNewbies: Ah! haha. Okay. ls -l, find the Xorg log. nano it, find any lines beginning with (EE)
[03:24] <UbuntuNewbies> aight Stormx2 :-) gimme a few than
[03:25] <pseudonym_> quit
[03:25] <UbuntuNewbies> Stormx2 any way to make that ls -l list come in steps? Cause it's too big, so I'm loosing the beginning.
[03:25] <Skycloud> Is there a python with a GUI, for ubuntu I can get, or am I stuck with the shell
[03:25] <Stormx2> UbuntuNewbies: in /var/log? Shouldn't be long. Pipe it through more: ls -l | more
[03:26] <UbuntuNewbies> oh wait.. *grins*
[03:26] <Stormx2> UbuntuNewbies: You can hit enter to move down, and q to quit.
[03:26] <Stormx2> heh.
[03:26] <Sepero> Skycloud: I can help. But your question doesn't make much sense. You looking for an IDE?
[03:26] <ant-> UbuntuNewbies use 'ls -l | less'
[03:26] <ant-> you can go back if you want to
[03:26] <vip3rousmango> anyone know where to get more brushes or how to download the help libary for GIMP 2.2?
[03:26] <SurfnKid> omg, i didnt know ubuntu was now part of Dell's new OS marketing program (news to me)
[03:27] <Skycloud> Sepero: I mean, I don't want to run python in the terminal I want python with an interface
[03:27] <LukeEkblad> what will shrinking my vista do?  Will it make it run slower?
[03:27] <ponicg> Hrm - so who can help me with these small little problems I'm having on this machine.
[03:27] <Stormx2> SurfnKid: They're selling ubuntu on a couple of models, yeah.
[03:27] <speaker219> ubuntu ftw
[03:27] <Sepero> Skycloud: Have you tried searching Synaptic for "python ide"?
[03:27] <vip3rousmango> Stormx2: so wait, their charging people for Ubuntu!?
[03:27] <Stormx2> LukeEkblad: Shrinking your Vista partition? No. It will just give you a little less space to play with on your C:
[03:28] <SurfnKid> Stormx2: news to me lol anyway I better stop talkikng about it, or take it on #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:28] <UbuntuNewbies> ok. maybe I've found the problem than.. No xorg.conf file to find.. :P
[03:28] <Sepero> Skycloud: IDE= Integrated Development Environment
[03:28] <Skycloud> Sepero: I'll go there now, I just searched pythonm not ide
[03:28] <SurfnKid> speaker219: ftbw!
[03:28] <Stormx2> vip3rousmango: Yep, because they have to offer support.
[03:28] <Skycloud> Sepero: I c, ok brb
[03:28] <vip3rousmango> Stormx2: shit eh, but doesn't that conflict with the GNP licences that ubuntu is a part of?
[03:28] <Stormx2> UbuntuNewbies: You deleted your xorg.conf? o.O
[03:28] <LukeEkblad> So, thats the only way i can download ubuntu without deleating vista?
[03:28] <Sepero> LukeEkblad: wubi
[03:29] <Stormx2> vip3rousmango: As SurfnKid said, #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:29] <larson9999> good willing i'll never have to use vista except to fix a client's machine.
[03:29] <LukeEkblad> besides wubi
[03:29] <Skycloud> Sepero: Idle would be what I'm looking for right?
[03:29] <vip3rousmango> yeah yeah, i saw it last second =b
[03:29] <Sepero> Skycloud: 1 sec
[03:29] <UbuntuNewbies> lol Stormx2.. at least it's not there.. However, should this be located in the /var/liv/X11? I can see one there..
[03:29] <cdubya> having gnome/metacity problems.....installed beryl....with beryl manager.....then was playing with the prefs and it wacked the system and it froze. I'm booted to the CD and need to know how to get gnome to boot normally again. It never finishes and I've removed beryl and all remembrance that I can see from the system.....
[03:29] <Sepero> Skycloud: yep, looks like a good one
[03:29] <n2diy> vip3rousmango: your allowed to charge for linux, but you can't close source it.
[03:29] <Stormx2> LukeEkblad: Yes. But you need to make room for ubuntu. I run Windows XP and Ubuntu side-by-side. Vista is the same.
[03:30] <vip3rousmango> ahhhh
[03:30] <Skycloud> Sepero: Yah, I'm pretty sure it is, because windows python with an interface was called idle to I'm pretty sure.
[03:30] <vip3rousmango> sneaky
[03:30] <LukeEkblad> ok
[03:30] <LukeEkblad> here is a joke
[03:30] <n2diy> vip3rousmango: take a look on ebay, everybody and there brother are selling linux
[03:30] <Sepero> LukeEkblad: I know that I may seem annoying, but in the long run you'll either love me or hate me.
[03:30] <cdubya> bah, prolly be quicker to reinstall. bummer
[03:30] <LukeEkblad> how many kernals fit in a metatarsel derd fooble terabite computer with windows vista and a sweet mounse?
[03:30] <LukeEkblad> hehhehehe
[03:30] <ChimeraHitman> Why does XChat-Gnome not receive files?
[03:31] <LukeEkblad> dua!!!
[03:31] <LukeEkblad> 3
[03:31] <LukeEkblad> hehhhe
[03:31] <UbuntuNewbies> Stormx2 I installed it yesterday.. I'll just reinstall it =)
[03:31] <Foxmike> join #ubuntu-fr
[03:31] <ChimeraHitman> Using Ubuntu Feisty Fawn.
[03:31] <Stormx2> ChimeraHitman: Ask the people in #xchat?
[03:31] <Foxmike> Good evening evryone...
[03:31] <ponicg> Morning Foxmike
[03:31] <LukeEkblad> poop
[03:31] <ChimeraHitman> Stormx2, ah, ok i will.
[03:31] <Foxmike> join #kubuntu
[03:31] <LukeEkblad> That was my brother
[03:31] <LukeEkblad> That was my brother
[03:31] <LukeEkblad> Retarted
[03:32] <yurimxpxman> is there anyone in here who's handy with inkscape? #inkscape isn't very talkative tonight :-)
[03:32] <Stormx2> Foxmike: You need a forward slash.
[03:32] <LukeEkblad> That was my brother...he's an idiot, sadley he's older than me...
[03:32] <CrashNBurn> anyone know how to get a broadcom bcm4318 to work on 7.04
[03:32] <stevej> I have an odd issue, at least I think I do, xsetroot doesn't. I'm running Ubuntu 7.04, and I think it worked right in 6.04.
[03:32] <Stormx2> LukeEkblad: Yeah, we saw.
[03:32] <LukeEkblad> yeah
[03:32] <Praxx> gah
[03:33] <Sepero> LukeEkblad: It's ok. Be gone now. Come back when you have wubi installed.
[03:33] <LukeEkblad> dose ubuntu have a media center thing?
[03:33] <LukeEkblad> like vista?
[03:33] <jscinoz> What environment variable can i use to force an application that normally uses Mozilla Suite/Seamonkey to render pages to use firefox instead?
[03:33] <Stormx2> Sepero: Why exactly are you recommending wubi?
[03:33] <Stormx2> Sepero: Can he not boot from CD or something?
[03:33] <Foxmike> Stormx2: ok thanks... I'm slowly getting use to it... needs some adaptation!:)
[03:34] <Sepero> Stormx2: because LukeEkblad obviously thinks Linux is some sort of 'alternate' microsoft, when it is not.
[03:34] <Praxx> >:|
[03:34] <ponicg> It's not?
[03:34] <ponicg> It's an alternate OS...
[03:34] <Stormx2> ponicg: It's an OS.
[03:34] <LukeEkblad> it isent ?
[03:34] <ponicg> Which is all Vista or XP are.
[03:34] <LukeEkblad> thats gay
[03:35] <Stormx2> ponicg: Not an "alternative".
[03:35] <ponicg> XP is an Alternate to ubuntu
[03:35] <freewilly> its free thats something
[03:35] <Mastercactapus> can anyone tell me about the power manager and why it jumps around so much with the remaining time?  it also seems to discharge quickly for a brand new battery
[03:35] <ponicg> and Debian is an alternate to Ubuntu, etc.
[03:35] <Stormx2> Windows is an alternative ;)
[03:35] <Foxmike> ponicg: It's not an 'alternate Microsoft...'
[03:35] <LukeEkblad> ok'
[03:35] <LukeEkblad> Back to my question
[03:35] <bluemoon_> anyone with advice for broken sound?
[03:35] <freewilly> no expiring demos
[03:35] <LukeEkblad> Dose it have somthing like media center?
[03:35] <ponicg> To clarify - I can do 99.999% of the things on Ubuntu that I did with Windows.
[03:35] <LDS_Trooper> greets
[03:36] <vip3rousmango> wats the .001% you can't?
[03:36] <Stormx2> LukeEkblad: Firstly, "gay" isn't an insult. Secondly, ubuntu is an OS, a lot like windows.
[03:36] <Mastercactapus> the .001% being blue screen of death
[03:36] <A55A551N> Anybody dual boot their systems with both Windows and Linux?
[03:36] <LDS_Trooper> what do I need to play DVDs on Fiesty?
[03:36] <ponicg> nah .001% is using my built in Datamodem.
[03:36] <Stormx2> LukeEkblad: Yeah, it does. There's a really cool demonstration video for it, too.
[03:36] <vip3rousmango> Mastercactapus: ahahah you can get a bluescreen of death screensaver from microsoft
[03:36] <Stormx2> LukeEkblad: I can't remember the exact name of the package, mind.
[03:36] <ponicg> I have to boot into windows to register it with the network and pay, then I can use it in Ubuntu:)
[03:36] <LukeEkblad> I wasent insulting it
[03:36] <freewilly> i dual booted but dropped windows now
[03:36] <bluemoon_> LDS_Trooper do you have libdvdcss?
[03:36] <Mastercactapus> lol
[03:36] <Stormx2> A55A551N: I do.
[03:36] <ponicg> yeah me too freewilly.
[03:36] <ponicg> atleast on this laptop
[03:36] <ponicg> I still run vista/xp on the desktop for work
[03:36] <Stormx2> !css | LDS_Trooper
[03:36] <ubotu> LDS_Trooper: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[03:36] <LDS_Trooper> bluemoon_, how do I check?
[03:36] <freewilly> miss some games tho
[03:37] <bluemoon_> LDS_Trooper in Synaptic
[03:37] <Praxx> how is the new version of Ubuntu. Is Gutsy halfway stable for someone to try/
[03:37] <cavalierprime> i dual boot
[03:37] <Sepero> LukeEkblad: wubi
[03:37] <Stormx2> freewilly: Have you tryed WINE?
[03:37] <LukeEkblad> Shudup
[03:37] <bluemoon_> LDS_Trooper: if you haven't installed it you probably don't have it
[03:37] <n2diy> Praxx: no, its alpha.
[03:37] <Mastercactapus> i got my battery today i put it in it had 65% and charged quickly, then running off the battery said i had over 3 hrs remaining, then jumped to 2:30 then to one, now its up to 2 hrs again and seems to be discharging fast
[03:37] <bluemoon_> LDS_Trooper: ubuntuguide.org
[03:37] <Praxx> ah
[03:37] <Stormx2> Praxx: No. You can try it, but don't use it on a production machine.
[03:37] <bluemoon_> LDS_Trooper: are you a latter-day saint in Edmonton?
[03:38] <freewilly> yes but i find it suboptimal
[03:38] <Stormx2> bluemoon_: ubuntuguide used to be something we didn't recommend. Has it changed?
[03:38] <LDS_Trooper> I am
[03:38] <LukeEkblad> Dude, instead of advertising wubi.  why dont you make ur own linux os?  hmm?
[03:38] <atm0sph> Does anyone know anything about errors like this --> [ 4770.244000]  ata1.00: cmd c4/00:08:47:c2:ce/00:00:00:00:00/e tag 0 cdb 0x0 data 4096
[03:38] <level1> Hi, my computer has been doing this thing when It resumes from suspend, some times, but not all the time, the keyboard will be completely unresponsive, and the touchpad (its a laptop)... the usb mouse works fine, and I can see the login box, but I can't type my password, so I have no choice but to force reboot my computer
[03:38] <Sepero> Praxx: Gutsy is halfway stable for anyone to try. There are lots of people testing it out now.
[03:38] <bluemoon_> LDS_Trooper: have you attained the Melchezidek priesthood?
[03:38] <user602> Any advice on setting up a gl window session that supports my hardware acceleration? My video card is ati 9600 pro on restricted drivers. My main display is running a bit slower but my 3d acceleration for games is fine. I heard about the xgl display but any idea on how to set it up?
[03:38] <Praxx> n2diy, Stormx2 the reason I ask is I have the most dreaded/horrid audio card that would not work on any distro. So I was wondering if it would on Gutsy (realtek high def audio)
[03:39] <Sepero> !ati | user602
[03:39] <ubotu> user602: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:39] <n2diy> Praxx:  the place to ask would be #ubuntu+1
[03:39] <LDS_Trooper> I cannot seem to find libdvdcss in Synaptic at all
[03:39] <Praxx> i am currently reinstalling a pirated xp every 30 days.
[03:39] <LukeEkblad> dose the ubuntu wedia player work well?
[03:39] <LDS_Trooper> bluemoon_, why do you ask?
[03:39] <Praxx> n2diy, will do. thanks mate
[03:39] <LukeEkblad> media*
[03:39] <vip3rousmango> Praxx: why would u reinstall xp every month?
[03:40] <LukeEkblad> Ya
[03:40] <Praxx> vip3rousmango, cuz i dont have a legal copy
[03:40] <greg_g> so he doesn't have to input a register key
[03:40] <LukeEkblad> So?
[03:40] <LukeEkblad> get ubuntu
[03:40] <vip3rousmango> Praxx: neither to i, but i dont have to reinstall every month
[03:40] <Foxmike> LukeEkblad: yes and there is plenty of them, but mostly Kaffeine and Totem
[03:40] <Sepero> LukeEkblad: Why don't I make my own Linux OS? Like we need 10,000 +1?
[03:40] <Praxx> no sound and wireless keeps dropping every minute
[03:40] <LukeEkblad> SEPERO, Mabey you can make a better one
[03:41] <fluffles> hi guys! how would i best check if a chipset/motherboard is supported in Ubuntu?
[03:41] <LukeEkblad> or just leav us alone
[03:41] <LDS_Trooper> bluemoon_, so I do not see libdvdcss in synaptic
[03:41] <tyler_> Is there any hard drive test I can run in Ubuntu?
[03:41] <atm0sph> tyler_: if u find out, lemme kno
[03:41] <atm0sph> klnow*
[03:41] <ponicg> fluffles, what one?
[03:41] <bluemoon_> LDS_Trooper: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_DVD_playback_capability
[03:41] <tyler_> I believe I am having read errors in specific sectors, but have no idea how to tell.
[03:41] <Praxx> vip3rousmango, LukeEkblad .. he reason is that my laptop is not compatable with ubuntu. Wireless keeps dropping (rtl8185) and no sound ( realtek card)

[03:42] <fluffles> ponicg: Gigabyte GA-MA69G-S3H
[03:42] <Sepero> LukeEkblad: I'm not trying to argue. I'm trying to help you out. I already solved your 64bit problem. Now I'm suggesting you use wubi. Linux is not microsoft, and it never will be.
[03:42] <LukeEkblad> i c
[03:42] <fluffles> with AMD 690G chipset
[03:42] <fluffles> (well its ATi ofcourse)
[03:42] <LukeEkblad> you where the person that helped me?
[03:42] <LukeEkblad> Thanks =D
[03:42] <ponicg> It's an AMD 690G?
[03:42] <LukeEkblad> But i dont want WUBI!  =)
[03:43] <LukeEkblad> I mean =0
[03:43] <fluffles> ponicg: yes
[03:43] <ponicg> fluffles, I would think yes.. I havne' seen proof but I'm gonna assume it'll be fine
[03:43] <fluffles> ponicg: if possible i want a non nvidia chipset (for AMD-platform). nVidia consumes too much energy for my taste
[03:43] <Billsey> How do I set the apt line for a local repostory under Dapper Drake? I have the repository on a USB drive
[03:43] <fluffles> ponicg: is there a HCL or smt? compatibility list
[03:43] <LukeEkblad> Well guys, I gtg
[03:44] <LukeEkblad> Thanks for the help
[03:44] <Sepero> LukeEkblad: Best of luck
[03:44] <LukeEkblad> I'll tell you if it worked latter
[03:44] <LukeEkblad> bye
[03:44] <LDS_Trooper> bluemoon_, I followed that
[03:44] <ponicg> fluffles, I'm not sure.
[03:44] <LDS_Trooper> argh
[03:44] <LDS_Trooper> ok Totem keeps telling me there is not plugin
[03:44] <LDS_Trooper> *no plugin
[03:45] <cavalierprime> you need the libdvd* codecs and the gstreamer codecs
[03:45] <Jordan_U> LDS_Trooper, Install Ubuntu-restricted-extras from Add/remove
[03:45] <Sepero> Stormx2: LukeEkblad is the kind of person that installs Linux with no reason why, then comes back here complaining and crying to have us help them remove it. That's why I suggested wubi multiple times.
[03:46] <CppIsWeird> anyone have any ideas on why when i i first boot i have sound, and sometime shortly afterward all sound stops. any ideas?
[03:46] <LDS_Trooper> Jordan_U, in syaptic?
[03:46] <Stormx2> Sepero: Ah, fair enough.
[03:46] <Jordan_U> LDS_Trooper, Yes, either
[03:46] <Stormx2> Sepero: Still, I first installed linux for the hell of it ;)
[03:46] <tiko> How come my printer only prints certain fonts?
[03:46] <Sepero> Stormx2: :)
[03:47] <Sepero> Stormx2: I wish wubi was around when I first installed Linux. :)
[03:47] <Jordan_U> CppIsWeird, Do you use any apps that still use OSS instead of alsa?
[03:47] <LDS_Trooper> ok I have both libdvdread3and libdvdcss2
[03:47] <ponicg> CppIsWeird, I'm having the same issue but not consistently.
[03:48] <CppIsWeird> Jordan_U: i dont really know, but my mixer is set to alsa
[03:48] <CppIsWeird> ponicg: it is consistant.
[03:48] <LDS_Trooper> I followed this: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_DVD_playback_capability
[03:48] <andkore> what is this start.exe thing doing in the ubuntu iso?
[03:48] <Jordan_U> LDS_Trooper, OK, now you need a media player that supports DVDs, I recommend VLC
[03:48] <freewilly> all u need is mplayer (for rm) & vlc
[03:48] <LDS_Trooper> sweet thanks!
[03:49] <Stormx2> andkore: It's an auto-runner for people who put the CD into a windows machine. It just opens k-meleon with some displays of what ubuntu can do.
[03:49] <Jordan_U> andkore, It allows you to install Open Source windows software ( firefox Open Office etc )
[03:49] <LDS_Trooper> Does VLC allow for screen captures?
[03:49] <click> where i can find nmap port scanner for ubuntu ?
[03:49] <Sepero> andkore: Lots of Linux iso's have a few MS programs to help with install.
[03:49] <Pici> click: nmap is in the ubuntu repositories
[03:49] <Stormx2> LDS_Trooper: Being captured, or capturing?
[03:49] <LDS_Trooper> both
[03:49] <jrib> click: do you know about APT?
[03:49] <click> apt-get ?
[03:49] <jrib> click: yes, nmap is in the main repository
[03:50] <Sepero> click: sudo apt-get install nmap
[03:50] <click> is asking me to insert cd why ?
[03:50] <click> apt-get isnt online upgrade?
[03:50] <Stormx2> LDS_Trooper: VLC shouldn't have any issues with being captured. However, it isn't a screen capturer, so it can't record screen data.
[03:50] <vip3rousmango> anyone here install Diablo 2 + Expansion via WINE off the offical cd's???
[03:50] <LDS_Trooper> ahh ok
[03:50] <LDS_Trooper> any recommendations?
[03:50] <Jordan_U> click, You have your CD listed as a repository, remove it with System -> Administration -> Software SOurces
[03:50] <Stormx2> click: You probably have a CD line in your sources.klist
[03:51] <Stormx2> Uhg. *list

[03:51] <dotdashandy> Hi, I'm trying to do a format and install over Fedora 3 on a rather old Thinkpad iSeries. I want to upgrade to Ubuntu 6.06, but it (along with 5.10) is having problems booting my machine. What are the arguments I can try to stop it from loading the Live environment and just give me an installer? I went through the help systems on the CD but nothing I could see would give me what I was after
[03:51] <adrian_> hi
[03:51] <LDS_Trooper> Stormx2, any recommendations for screen capturing?
[03:52] <bluebanana> I'm talking about my firefox data.
[03:52] <click> what should i choose?
[03:52] <adrian_> i wanted to know how to shear a printer, installed on ubuntu, to a computer with Windows XP
[03:52] <Stormx2> LDS_Trooper: recordMyDesktop is good :)
[03:53] <cavalierprime> dotdashandy you should download the alternate install CD
[03:53] <Stormx2> Billsey: Not a clue, sorry.
[03:53] <LDS_Trooper> Stormx2, I want to make stills
[03:53] <dotdashandy> cavalierprime: Okay thankyou. I suppose I can go for Ubuntu 7, rather than 6?
[03:53] <click> stormx2
[03:53] <Stormx2> LDS_Trooper: Press "Print Screen"
[03:53] <cavalierprime> yup
[03:53] <click> what should i choose in system adminstrator software sources ?
[03:53] <dotdashandy> Great.
[03:53] <Jack_Sparrow> dotdashandy: What error are you getting on those install cd's
[03:53] <pyrak> can someone link me to an intro to the stock dirs in the ubuntu installation?
[03:53] <pyrak> is proc a list of processes?
[03:53] <dotdashandy> Jack_Sparrow: It's stuck at the moment on Disabling IRQ #15
[03:54] <Stormx2> click: Follow what Jordan_U said.
[03:54] <Jack_Sparrow> do you have any usb devices plugged in?
[03:54] <dotdashandy> Jack_Sparrow: My fedora CDs would hang at "Running /sbin/loader, and I'm really not having any luck
[03:54] <dotdashandy> Jack_Sparrow: No, unless it's using the bus internally
[03:54] <click> i went there now ?
[03:54] <Jack_Sparrow> dotdashandy: It was just a thought.
[03:54] <cute_bettong> can anyone tell me how to get compiz working right...it just gives me windows with no titlebars and i cannot move them at all
[03:54] <Jack_Sparrow> dotdashandy: Pcmcia cards?
[03:55] <click> ?
[03:55] <dotdashandy> Jack_Sparrow: Ah. I tried to start with disabling USB, but that didn't help either. and no, no PCMCIA. Windows taught me always to start up vanilla then gradually add hardware
[03:55] <Sepero> Anyone have experience with Makefile's? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27696/
[03:55] <LDS_Trooper> wish I could remember the player I used before... I could hit "s" and capture...
[03:55] <click> anyone to answer me ?
[03:55] <LDS_Trooper> anywho thanks guys...
[03:55] <Jordan_U> click, I expected that it would be listed there, if not then edit your sources.list directly with: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:56] <Sepero> click: 1 sec
[03:56] <freewilly> find the config-file for your repos
[03:56] <Sepero> click: What does it show?
[03:56] <vip3rousmango> does ubuntu require defragmenting like windows? do files fragment in linux?
[03:56] <click> i went to system adminstrator software sources
[03:56] <freewilly> click
[03:56] <Jordan_U> click, Just comment out ( add a # to the beginning of ) whatever line has the CD listed
[03:57] <ponicg> vip3rousmango, I haven't defragged any of my machines in years.
[03:57] <elporro> hi everybody, how do I configure GRUB so Windows is the default system to boot?
[03:57] <Jordan_U> !defrag | vip3rousmango
[03:57] <ponicg> vip3rousmango, Including Windows.
[03:57] <ubotu> vip3rousmango: defragmentation is not needed for Ext3 and ReiserFS filesystems. They are much more efficient in their allocation of storage units.

[04:05] <PurpZeY> !anyone
[04:05] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:05] <hlh> it was working before I played with gnome power mgt

[04:05] <younghacker> I always go to my wired box and check the connection there, if thats cool i reset the wireless router, if the wired is down i unplug the cable modem and plug it back in
[04:05] <PurpZeY> susan: Did you do the kernel upgrade?
[04:05] <BrightEyes`> it turns my screen like a square
[04:05] <freewilly> there are some quirks
[04:05] <BrightEyes`> freewilly: like?
[04:05] <susan> purzey: i thought 2.16 was working fine for me.. but maybe that is breaking it
[04:05] <Jordan_U> dre1, Try Nvidia's configuration utility ( can't remember the name )
[04:05] <dre1> right
[04:05] <Lenoxus> Phil_E:Well, you said something about/ping
[04:05] <PurpZeY> susan: Roll back to .15 and see what happens
[04:05] <freewilly> & u can tweak the settings in beryl-manager
[04:05] <Phil_E> oh
[04:05] <dre1> i need to know how to run it
[04:05] <younghacker> I want to know how install the forensics programs from Helix (Live CD) into Ubuntu
[04:06] <James-001> well...at least it's not quiet in here...
[04:06] <Lenoxus> but just now, I was confusing you with someone else
[04:06] <susan> *tryin
[04:06] <Phil_E> Lenoxus: yeah i was trying to find out what /ping does
[04:06] <younghacker> just apt-get them?
[04:06] <nexous> Jordan_U: okay thanks.
[04:06] <Lenoxus> who had asked about the largest irc channel
[04:06] <Phil_E> and found out on ##linux...
[04:06] <foug_> susan: PurpZeY: it worked, i think, going to my dad's comp brb
[04:06] <Phil_E> :(
[04:06] <Jordan_U> nexous, np
[04:06] <Quiz> Ohhh then i stay with my ubuntu i love it :) thanks for info
[04:06] <younghacker> ping tests the connection up to layer 3
[04:06] <freewilly> like sometimes some probs loading the window manager
[04:06] <younghacker> basically tells you if your ip and box are connected to the network
[04:06] <PurpZeY> Quiz: No problem.
[04:06] <younghacker> doesn't really mean that it's communicable
[04:06] <Quiz> brb
[04:06] <Lenoxus> Phil_E: Why the :(
[04:07] <Phil_E> cause
[04:07] <Phil_E> i pinged the whole channel
[04:07] <younghacker> wow
[04:07] <James-001> hey...another james...;)
[04:07] <hlh> oope maybe this is the wrong channel
[04:07] <freewilly> or leaving a redraw effect behind from my tvscreen
[04:07] <Phil_E> and according to someone there that's not a smart thing to do...
[04:07] <Sepero> younghacker: Do you know the names of the programs you want to install?
[04:07] <susan>  /ping on irc will ping everyone
[04:07] <younghacker> well no its not at all

[04:07] <Lenoxus> I'm not sure I get this "pinging" of which people speak
[04:07] <Vletmix> Anyone ever used vpnc?
[04:07] <Sepero> younghacker: You should be able to install most of them through Synaptic/apt-get
[04:08] <freewilly> whit nvidia use aiglx
[04:08] <Phil_E> Lenoxus: it gives you the amount of time it takes for someone to get a message, and then reply, as i found out
[04:08] <Lenoxus> but I know something about a certain number always being one's own connection
[04:08] <freewilly> no xgl
[04:08] <Sepero> younghacker: You might have to install some from source code.
[04:08] <click> how do i connect with my terminal to an ip address ? connect ip:port ?

[04:09] <PurpZeY> Phil_E: B/C it lags the whole server, and everyone.
[04:09] <Lenoxus> Phil_E:So if you ping a large channel, it's very memory-consuming?

[04:49] <andrewspriggs> susan: I've had this problem in a lot of distros in one way or another...it's just that normally, when I blacklist bcm43xx, it stays blacklisted!

[05:04] <susan> ubuntubeginz: don't boot up with it plugged in
[05:04] <susan> ubuntubeginz that's all i can say .. fuck this noise i'm out
[05:04] <tiko> Pelo, I'm using OpenOffice.org one and MS Word, using the fonts Arial and Times New Roman
[05:04] <`eric-> Pelo: well, i succesfully change it to the Vesa driver, which is cool and all.. but, i'd love to get the previous driver back...
[05:04] <`eric-> :(
[05:04] <davidy> O.o
[05:04] <toddy> i typed
[05:04] <davidy> someone's mad :p
[05:04] <ubuntubeginz> susan: k... see ya later.
[05:04] <xlp> when i try to re-partition this drive, keeps saying /dev/sdc1 is mounted but it isnt :P
[05:05] <Pelo> `eric-,  try this,  menu <system > admin > restricted drivers
[05:05] <Pelo> tiko,  does it work with other  fonts ?
[05:05] <davidy> Pelo - to your knowledge, is there a banshee 3d driver out there?
[05:05] <tiko> I tried one font, forgot what it was, it did print, but it doesnt print for most of them
[05:05] <`eric-> Pelo: "My hardware doesn't need any restricted drivers."
[05:05] <Pelo> david__,  no idea
[05:05] <dk> flima
[05:06] <davidy> Pelo, thank you
[05:06] <`eric-> Pelo: i just want to uninstall all the nvidia shit, and start over... but i can't seem to find any info for completely removing it
[05:06] <davidy> Do you know of any video driver repositories out there?
[05:06] <davidy> i've googled for 4 days
[05:06] <davidy> O.o
[05:06] <xlp> and when i keep formating this drive, it wont delete the lost*found folder, anyone know how i can get rid of it?
[05:06] <davidy> xlp
[05:07] <msl> xlp: lost & found is a folder that all EXT2 and EXT3 filesystems have
[05:07] <davidy> you may want to try to use MS DOS Debug to destroy the partition tables
[05:07] <edugonch> Hello, I would like to know if somebody has updating the bios from ubuntu, I have a MSI Mother board and I want to update the bios
[05:07] <pushpop`>  question on linux sda1 is a hd in linux how does linux represent a scsi drive?
[05:07] <Pelo> `eric-, look in the proceedure I gave you before,  where you see sudo apt-get install whatever  , change install for remove to remove the driver,   that's the best I can do for you I am not very good with nvidia stuff
[05:07] <xlp> davidy: i cant do that within linux?
[05:07] <atm0sph> pushpop`: my laptop has a scsi drive and it's listed as sd0
[05:07] <atm0sph> err sda0
[05:07] <`eric-> Pelo: ok man, thanks for all the help
[05:07] <davidy> xlp - if you have a floppy disk drive
[05:08] <Pelo> `eric-,  best of luck
[05:08] <andkore> ok i'm at my wits end, i've tried pretty much every iso burning tool out there, but everytime i try to burn the ubuntu iso, when its done, the disc is just empty, but i cant write anything to it (it's ruined).
[05:08] <xlp> :P
[05:08] <davidy> xlp - you would need to make a boot disk, and if you have an email address, i can send you what you would need to type into the debug program to destroy the partition tables

[05:14] <logan> I am on a laptop, I want to get drivers for the graphics card but I don't know what graphics card it has or how to get the drivers, although I do know that it is ATI
[05:15] <ermac0> logan, lspci
[05:15] <dk> logan, what laptop?
[05:15] <dk> how can you buy a laptop without knowing what graphics card it has...?
[05:15] <d2dchat> hey can anyone help me figure out why java is eating up all my CPU every once in awhile?
[05:15] <d2dchat> it only happens when i open eclipse
[05:15] <d2dchat> and it only happens every once in awhile
[05:16] <logan> Radeon Mobility M7
[05:16] <dk> d2dchat, maybe its java :P
[05:16] <`eric-> Anyone with NVIDIA mind helping me get my drivers working :( I can only get VESA to work since Auto Updating to the new drivers :(
[05:16] <logan> It's a sony vaio, older model
[05:16] <`eric-> !nvidia
[05:16] <xlp> basically, grub looks fine but wont work
[05:16] <geekkit> eric: sure whats wrong?
[05:16] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:16] <`eric-> !nvidia
[05:16] <ermac0> d2dchat, java is a memory hog since the early 90's
[05:16] <eggs> Question: anyone know where i can get a mplayer script to dl all the codecs for 7.04 ?
[05:17] <d2dchat> I know it's a hog but this is unusual behavior.. i could be doing NOTHING AT all, have eclipse open
[05:17] <d2dchat> and suddenly CPU drain
[05:17] <geekkit> eric: http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Latest_nvidia_feisty
[05:17] <sn0w> hey my font is huge on my login screen, anyone know how to make it smaller?
[05:17] <ShadowApex> Could someone help me out with trying to get my sound working? I've searched all over the forums but to no avail.. =(
[05:17] <xsist> eric what problem you running into?
[05:17] <geekkit> eggs: check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats?highlight=%28restricted%29
[05:17] <ermac0> eggs, your better off using totem, and install totem-codecs IMHO
[05:18] <ermac0> you can make it work with mplayer
[05:18] <geekkit> and more on codecs: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2731402
[05:18] <ermac0> takes a little tweaking time
[05:18] <f70> when I boot into the OS it says 'failed to lead unionfs module' dropping you to a limited shell.
[05:18] <eggs> i used mplayer when i was on 6.06 and loved it
[05:18] <geekkit> specifically type in: sudo apt-get install totem-xine libxine1 libxine1-ffmpeg libxine-extracodecs libdvdnav4 libdvdplay0 libdvdread3
[05:18] <xlp> davidy: im thinking about just popping in my winxp cd, disconnect the thrid hdd (one linux is on), fix my mbr (kill grub) and i dunno, hot swap a linux drive later
[05:18] <geekkit> for me that worked for DVD too
[05:19] <ermac0> geekkit, you got it
[05:19] <geekkit> ermac0: i've had no problems since i did that :-)
[05:19] <geekkit> ermac0: i have *all* media needs met after a few searches and sudo calls ;-)
[05:19] <logan> When I try to get/install the restricted ati drivers I get this message
[05:19] <ermac0> geekkit, yea plus totem is all i need to don't need extra whistles
[05:19] <logan> linux-restricted-modules-generic is already the newest version.
[05:19] <logan> restricted-manager is already the newest version.
[05:19] <EADG_> Whats the next lts for Ubuntu after Dapper?
[05:20] <geekkit> ermac0: exactly.
[05:20] <geekkit> :-)
[05:20] <logan> But when I try to go to selected the ATI driver in the restricted drivers manager it tells me I don't need any
[05:20] <geekkit> and for me Rhythmbox is for shoutcast/mp3 and CD
[05:20] <ermac0> the lts
[05:20] <xsist> ill take codeine or vlc...
[05:20] <logan> but I clearly do not have 3D support
[05:20] <ermac0> dunno
[05:20] <sn0w> hey my font is huge on my login screen, anyone know how to make it smaller?
[05:20] <fabiovalinhos> EADG, probably in 2008
[05:21] <EADG_> K, thanks guys.
[05:21] <geekkit> snow: system->preferences->font
[05:21] <`eric-> anyone w/ nvidia experience mind helping me try to troubleshoot why the software update screwed up my nvidia drivers?
[05:21] <ermac0> geekkit, plus yea it works with the other players it comes with , since it uses the same codecs
[05:21] <ShadowApex> I can't get my sound working... could anyone help me out?
[05:21] <davidy> XLP - http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27713/
[05:21] <xsist> 'eric what seems to be the problem
[05:21] <geekkit> ermac0: oh yeah....im truly amazed at 7.04 it really does everytthing i want it to :-)
[05:22] <xsist> 7.04 is the bomb..
[05:22] <geekkit> ermac0: 6.10 missed a few things but 7.04 caught up fast ... including USB support that doesnt crash the kernel
[05:23] <geekkit> 7.04 IS the bomb
[05:23] <ShadowApex> hey, speaking of usb support
[05:23] <ShadowApex> my sound doesn't work
[05:23] <ShadowApex> lol
[05:23] <xlp> davidy: what does this do?
[05:23] <eggs> question: on the next version Gibson... are they going to have a version with beryle and one with out ?
[05:23] <eboyjr> What is the Linux Swap partition for?
[05:23] <ShadowApex> Compiz Fusion homie
[05:23] <StrongArm> i uninstalled pkg-get, how do i install it back?
[05:23] <xsist> its for memory usage
[05:23] <ShadowApex> no more Beryl
[05:23] <geekkit> eggs: dunno. personally not a thing for me. im an old timer so i dont really find it useful
[05:24] <Greg> swap is the term used for extra memory on the hard disk
[05:24] <eggs> well okay are they going to have a version with out the compiz fusion
[05:24] <ShadowApex> I think it will be like 7.04's Compiz, with Desktop Effects
[05:24] <Greg> so when your system memory becomes full, or your programs go unused the o/s pages the programs to the swap partition.
[05:24] <davidy> xlp - this destroy's the partition table on the drive you specify...
[05:24] <davidy> however
[05:24] <eggs> same here geekkit, also i feel the people who dont have video cards that can handle it will lose out
[05:24] <geekkit> StrongArm: go to synaptic and grab it from there
[05:24] <davidy> i strongly urge you that if you can sit through another install of linux on that drive...
[05:24] <xlp> davidy: i cant just fdisk?
[05:25] <davidy> fdisk doen'st destroy linux partitions though
[05:25] <davidy> not fully
[05:25] <xlp> lol
[05:25] <Quiz> Hi how to create aim acc please help
[05:25] <geekkit> hah
[05:25] <davidy> thats why this thing is so handy
[05:25] <davidy> :)
[05:25] <xlp> davidy: so, i just type F and all the stuff following it or just F, A, MOV, etc?
[05:25] <geekkit> eggs: yeah. but then again they would with vista too
[05:25] <eboyjr> Greg: What is a good idea for amount of space on the swap drive?
[05:26] <Quiz> What i need to type in local alias?
[05:26] <cables> Quiz, that's optional. You can leave it blank.
[05:26] <eggs> well except with gibson... umm... it would work ?
[05:26] <geekkit> Quiz: with which app?
[05:26] <xsist> vista is just too painfull...
[05:26] <Pelo> g'night folks
[05:26] <xlp> xxxx:0103 MOV BX,200  just MOV not BX,200?
[05:26] <Quiz> geekkit, gaim

[05:26] <geekkit> ah yes
[05:26] <Greg> off the top of my head I can't be certain, but i believe 1.5 times the amount of ram is still recomended.
[05:26] <EADG_> eboyjr: 1Gb should do you just fine
[05:26] <eboyjr> EADG_: Cool, thx
[05:27] <Greg> of course if you have 8 gigs of ram a 12 gig swap file makes no sense :)
[05:27] <eggs> i like it that when i come in here and have a question there are atucally people who can answar the question instead of the windose peep who look down their nose and do the whole "MOVE" bull crap
[05:27] <geekkit> backing up can also be had by simply slipping a CD-ROM blank or a DVD-ROM blank into your drive (assuming your in Ubuntu) and waiting for the prompt (just like windoze) to add to the new unwritten disk
[05:27] <xsist> i would say with more ram use  a smaller swap
[05:27] <dotdashandy> Okay I just downloaded and burnt the Alternative install for 7.04 and it loads the kernel, but then hangs at a blinking cursor
[05:27] <eboyjr> Greg: 8 gigs wow, I have 512 MBs! ( 2003 comp )
[05:27] <davidy> xlp - MOV BX,200
[05:27] <geekkit> eggs: yes, me too. ive also visited #gtk+ for programming questions and they are also very helpful
[05:28] <ShadowApex> Umm.. so my sound card is located on the usb bus, rather than the pci bus.. and thus will not work correctly in Ubuntu... any insight?
[05:28] <davidy> xlp - you dont type in the xxxx:010* stuff
[05:28] <logan> I need to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf, if I use sudo gedit /etc... then nothing happends
[05:28] <geekkit> dotdashandy:  it might have something to do with SATA problems... especially if you have older H/W .... try setting your BIOS to default values
[05:28] <logan> if I take off the sudo it opens but I can't save
[05:28] <xlp> davidy: so how do i know its going to destroy the harddrive linux is on?
[05:28] <EADG_> I don't recall ever seeing my swap usage go over 100mb... 512Mb in this lappy

[05:29] <tulga> I installed xorg-driver-fglrx, but my display crashed and now working recovery mode. howto solve it?
[05:30] <dotdashandy> geekkit:  looking now
[05:30] <xlp> davidy: basically, i have 3 hdd's, hd0 is winxp, hd1 is backup, hd2 is linux...
[05:30] <ermac0> geekkit, more than 10
[05:30] <PurpZeY> logan: What do you mean nothing happens?
[05:30] <ermac0> :)
[05:30] <eggs> what is soylent green ?
[05:30] <logan> Nothing happends, it doesn't ask for my password, gedit doesnt open
[05:30] <xsist> logan issue the command from a terminal not run
[05:30] <geekkit> ShadowApex: what is wrong with your sound support? im surprised that Ubuntu doesnt see it.
[05:30] <chaosmystic> soylent green is people
[05:30] <logan> I am doing it in terminal
[05:30] <xsist> try gksudo intead
[05:31] <Raiders32> eggs:  it was a movie about turning people into food
[05:31] <Dr_willis> chaosmystic,  Soylent green.......... Yummmmmmm.........
[05:31] <geekkit> ermac0: yeah, true, we're talking days of jumpers...like when you had to install soundblaster soundcards
[05:31] <Dr_willis> :)
[05:31] <Dr_willis> GOtta love the classics
[05:31] <chaosmystic> yeah but clowns taste funny
[05:31] <`eric-> hmmm.... anyone know why Shutdown and Restart have been removed from the "QUIT" window....? wierd
[05:31] <PurpZeY> geekkit: Don't remind me.
[05:31] <logan> That does it but gedit freezes
[05:31] <ermac0> logan, just do a sudo gedit type password, then once it loads the X frontend of gedit, look for the xorg.conf file
[05:31] <logan> it acts like it is loading the file and never does
[05:31] <geekkit> ermac0: like when VBE 2.0 was just made a standard....and then win 95 came out and made it obsolete
[05:31] <xsist> eric did you issue startx to get a gui?
[05:31] <PurpZeY> `eric-: That has happened to me before...an x-restart usually alleviates it.
[05:31] <geekkit> PurpleY: you just dated yourself bud! ;-)
[05:32] <`eric-> PurpZeY: ok thanks.. i was just gonna do a complete sudo reboot
[05:32] <`eric-> and see if that works :P
[05:32] <xsist> hmmm try using another editor
[05:32] <eggs> oh ha! good one telling a joke over my head :(
[05:32] <ShadowApex> geekkit: Won't work in most applications (like Firefox). Some will play, like Amarok, but I am unable to raise or lower the volume.
[05:32] <ermac0> geekkit, the good ol days of SB cards and AC 97
[05:32] <dotdashandy> geekkit: Set the BIOS back to defaults, it reset my boot order and screen issues, but still sitting at the blinking cursor
[05:32] <PurpZeY> geekkit: No joke, I TOTALLY remember that...the 4 switches on the soundblaster...redbox, 4 white switches.
[05:32] <geekkit> ermac0: hah! i remember those days.
[05:32] <geekkit> lol!
[05:32] <geekkit> PurpZey: lol
[05:33] <mneptok> but did you ever use Hollerith cards for real work?
[05:33] <geekkit> oh man
[05:33] <geekkit> nasty times....plug and pray
[05:33] <geekkit> that was what it was called
[05:33] <logan> Nothing is happening.
[05:33] <geekkit> stupid 95
[05:33] <ermac0> good one
[05:33] <mneptok> ooo! 1995! the "old days!" ;)
[05:33] <f70> how do I put the cd \syslinux\win32 in the cmd window to work?
[05:33] <PurpZeY> geekkit: I remember fighting with IRQ...IRQs conflicting..Sitting there all night trying to get the IRQs to fit right.
[05:33] <geekkit> ShadowApex: sounds like a codec problem more than anything
[05:33] <xsist> logan try sudo vi if gedit is flaking out on you
[05:33] <mneptok> f70: stop using backslashes?
[05:34] <geekkit> PurpZey: yeah! IRQ 9 or ..... take your pick!!! hahaha
[05:34] <`eric-> PurpZeY: fixed itself ;) <3 when that happens, lol
[05:34] <Greg> f70 linux uses forward slashes.
[05:34] <PurpZeY> logan: if vi doesn't work can you please paste the exact CLI line you are using.
[05:34] <Greg> cd /syslinux/win32
[05:34] <f70> mneptok, # Download syslinux-3.51.zip and unzip the files to a directory called syslinux on your computer
[05:34] <f70> # From Windows click start-> run-> cmd
[05:34] <f70> # From the command window, type cd \syslinux\win32
[05:34] <f70> # Type syslinux.exe -ma F: (replace F with your USB drive letter) to make the drive bootable
[05:34] <EADG_> PurpZeY: geekkit the worst was modem/mouse irq conflicts.
[05:34] <ShadowApex> geekkit: Well, my login sounds and system sounds won't play. I know my sound card is on the USB bus and I've tried changing everything in the sound settings to USB but it still will not work.
[05:34] <Ze-M> how can i uninstall a package with apt but without verying dependencies?
[05:35] <PurpZeY> ShadowApex: Have you checked Alsa?
[05:35] <mneptok> ShadowApex: did you blacklist the pcspeaker kernel module?
[05:35] <geekkit> ShadowApex: oh...what system are you running? (i.e., hardware?)
[05:35] <xlp> I can format this drive to ntfs and everything gets wiped out but it wont let me format to ext3 without giving me an error
[05:36] <geekkit> EADG: sort of...what was that app for DOS for modem that everyone used ... i remember using it to download linux in 94 when it was on 3 floppies
[05:36] <ShadowApex> geekkit: I have an ASUS M2N-Plus SLI motherboard with onboard sound. Whenever I open up the device manager, it crashes
[05:36] <logan> I can't work VI
[05:36] <ShadowApex> mneptol: I'm not sure how to do hat...
[05:36] <ShadowApex> that*
[05:36] <logan> it loads it but I can't use it
[05:36] <PurpZeY> logan: Please paste the command you are running.
[05:36] <logan> it is like the insert button is pressed or something
[05:36] <PurpZeY> logan: Oh, vi works...
[05:37] <logan> pebkac error =(
[05:37] <EADG_> geekkit: ahh, it's on the tip of my tonge, used it in 3.11.
[05:37] <ShadowApex> geekkit: When I run lsusb... I think this is my sound: Bus 001 Device 005: ID 0d8c:0201 C-Media Electronics, Inc.
[05:37] <ermac0> modprobe that audio module
[05:37] <PurpZeY> logan: I am not too familiar with it...someone else can help.
[05:37] <geekkit> ShadowApex: sorry ... i dont know why .... how old is your asus M/B?
[05:37] <younghacker_> bak
[05:37] <PurpZeY> EADG_: I thought it was just called term.
[05:37] <ShadowApex> geekkit: brand new
[05:37] <xsist> logan try doing just a "sudo gedit" then open the file from the open dialog
[05:37] <geekkit> EADG: you remember it dont you? it had this slick text mode UI
[05:37] <ShadowApex> geekkit: "Vista ready" even
[05:37] <Ze-M> how can i uninstall a package with apt but without verying dependencies?
[05:37] <geekkit> damn...on the tip of my tongue
[05:37] <ermac0> xsist, i told him that, he's not picking up
[05:37] <Ze-M> no one knows?
[05:38] <geekkit> ShadowApex: hah, yeah right... and it runs on Vista?
[05:38] <RabidWeezle_> this secondlife game is too damned addictive
[05:38] <RabidWeezle_> :/
[05:38] <PurpZeY> Net-dial
[05:38] <ttmrichter> When I install feisty on an XP-infected machine, it gives me an option to resize partitions to make space.  When I tried recently to do the same on a Vista-impaired system, there was no such option provided.  Did Vista break that capability?
[05:38] <EADG_> geekkit: err, nope, I'm thinking wrong proggy
[05:38] <ShadowApex> geekkit: more or less. It works fine but I have had some problems with the sound when plugging in other usb devices
[05:38] <ShadowApex> >.< @ ASUS
[05:38] <dotdashandy> Okay well, I've just tried to boot up off my alternative install cd, and it's hanging at a blinking cursor. What's wrong with it
[05:39] <geekkit> EADG: i use to use mine with the college's mainframe to D/L stuff
[05:39] <ermac0> i got my wives vista home to crash, generated a BSOD, believe it or not, while i was disconnecting a bluetooth device to it, it was wonderfull I reproduced the incident several times for kicks
[05:39] <geekkit> ShadowApex: hmmm....sorry guy... not sure. :/
[05:39] <ShadowApex> geekkit: *cries*
[05:39] <pyrak> can someone recommend a backup utility?
[05:39] <PurpZeY> ttmrichter: Vista does not play well with others.
[05:40] <EADG_> geekkit: same. had a USR 2400 external. Had to slip/ppp into a vax/vms and do zmodem cmds. That was ages ago, barely remember..
[05:40] <geekkit> ermac0: i tried converting my wife but she couldn't because she needs simply accounting and WINE doesn't play that
[05:40] <xsist> pyrak cron works well
[05:40] <urso_> windows vista is easy to be used
[05:40] <chaosmystic> VMware
[05:40] <logan> Isn't there an alternative editor in terminal?
[05:40] <ShadowApex> >.< I dun want to use Vista
[05:40] <logan> not VI or gedit
[05:40] <ermac0> geekkit, the wife doesn't understand all the weird characters in ubuntu, thats what she calls them
[05:40] <PurpZeY> logan: nano.
[05:40] <ShadowApex> or rather, Windows in general
[05:40] <logan> thanks
[05:40] <geekkit> EADG: i had a US robotics 2400 baud slip/ppp ... remember setting up those scripts before ELF?
[05:41] <urso_> ShadowApex i don`t use vista to
[05:41] <xsist> logan not really
[05:41] <xlp> how can i completely wipe out a harddrive in linux?
[05:41] <PurpZeY> xlp: use gparted.
[05:41] <tulga> my ubuntu 7.04 starting very slow. howto minimize it?
[05:41] <xsist> xlp rm-rf
[05:41] <ermac0> chaosmystic, i use VMware on a w2k3 machine works wonders
[05:41] <PurpZeY> tulga: Starting slow how?
[05:41] <pyrak> xsist, how do i use cron?
[05:41] <geekkit> ermac0: same with my wife...but i almost got her hooked when i showed her all the script-FU filters in GIMP that made her think that photoshop was crap ;-)
[05:41] <EADG_> geekkit: I was the 1st in the dorm to install a 1gb hdd, had 20 stuffed into my room to watch me format it.
[05:41] <tulga> orange bar loading very slow
[05:41] <urso_> xlp catch one basebol and hit in the hd
[05:41] <xlp> im using gparted but when i convert to ntfs, the hdd is empty, convert to ext3 and i get a lost&found folder taking 2gigs
[05:41] <logan> How do I do the WriteOut in nano
[05:41] <logan> it says ^O
[05:42] <logan> shift o?
[05:42] <ermac0> geekkit, yup
[05:42] <ponicg> hmm what problems might i encounter upgrading from Edgy to Feisty... and what benefits might ifind?
[05:42] <PurpZeY> tulga: How slow?
[05:42] <xsist> pyrak never used it,,,, try the man page...
[05:42] <urso_>  there are allways information thta stays saved there
[05:42] <ShadowApex> logan: ctrl
[05:42] <EADG_> geekkit: ELF? never heard of it.
[05:42] <pidator> I have a program with samba, first off I can't see my workgroup computer on a windows machine, second I can't even connect to it logging in as anything, should I paste my samba.conf?
[05:42] <tulga> I think it is loading or checking many thing. I need reduce time
[05:42] <ermac0> ponicg, security updates for starters
[05:42] <PurpZeY> tulga: How long?
[05:42] <geekkit> EADG_: ELF was the first version of linux where modules didn't require recompiling the kernel
[05:42] <tulga> 2 min
[05:43] <PurpZeY> tulga: What kind of setup are you running?
[05:43] <ponicg> ermac0, Besides those - I'm still running a....2.6.17 based kernel...
[05:43] <tulga> it is 7.04 desktop
[05:43] <geekkit> EADG_: like i say...im dating myself :P
[05:43] <lgmalcantara> Hi there... I need some help on installing ubuntu on my pc... I can't see my HD after booting the live dvd/cd. Anyone could help me, please?
[05:43] <PurpZeY> lgmalcantara: What type of partition is your harddrive?
[05:43] <EADG_> geekkit: Oh, hehe, no, back then it was all dos & 3.11 for me, only started Linux last year :\
[05:43] <andkore> hey guys i want to install ubuntu using instlux because my CD burner is broken, but I already have the ISO, so I dont wanna do the net install. does anyone know how i can use the iso that i already have?
[05:43] <PurpZeY> tulga: How much RAM?
[05:43] <tulga> 1GB
[05:43] <xlp> well how do i destroy the lost&found folder?
[05:43] <PurpZeY> andkore: In windows or ubuntu?
[05:43] <mneptok> xlp: don't
[05:43] <xlp> its locked
[05:44] <andkore> PurpZeY, i'm in winders
[05:44] <mneptok> xlp: leave that dir alone
[05:44] <pidator> whats poinjt of lost+found????
[05:44] <geekkit> EADG_: i remember i was going to create this imaging program and then this group of people started this project .... something with a funny name....i think they called the project graphics image manipulation program for lack of a better name :P
[05:44] <chaosmystic> Lost&Found is part of the OS
[05:44] <pidator> whats it do?
[05:44] <xsist> tulga http://www.xsol.se/index.php/2007/04/29/feisty-performance-fly-like-a-butterfly/
[05:44] <colin_clark> I have an interesting one i think; I've got an Acer laptop with built in wifi. the drivers are there, but it is disabled. The button on the front that enables it doesnt seem to work
[05:44] <Dr_willis> if fsck finds some files.. that it cant tell where they go.. it puts them there.
[05:44] <xlp> mneptok: so i cant destroy it but when i format it keeps appearing?
[05:44] <EADG_> geekkit: hehe
[05:44] <chaosmystic> Its where broken files and lost data goes
[05:44] <ermac0> pidator, remember to make windows see the shares you need to edit your /etc/samba/smb_config file to the correct workgroup the choose a user to give access to
[05:44] <PurpZeY> tulga: That's interesting..I mean, my laptop takes a minute or so to boot up from that orange bar, but two minutes seems like a lot...my desktop does it with in 30 seconds or less.
[05:44] <geekkit> EADG_: I had even contacted unisys because i was irate with their patent on GIF
[05:44] <PurpZeY> colin_clark: Did you install the acer_acpi?
[05:44] <tulga> yes, I think so
[05:44] <geekkit> that was 95
[05:45] <colin_clark> nope
[05:45] <xlp> what the heck is in it taking 2gigs?
[05:45] <pidator> ermac0 - does this relate to useradd? Isn't useradd just for linux users or does it work for windows too?
[05:45] <colin_clark> where can I find it?
[05:45] <PurpZeY> colin_clark: You are dealing with the bcm 4318 I take it?
[05:45] <EADG_> geekkit: I used to trade floppys of gifs for beer and dinners :)
[05:45] <PurpZeY> colin_clark: Well, either way really, you need to install the acer_acpi
[05:45] <ermac0> its not user add, your allowing a user to connect to smb
[05:46] <ermac0> smb add
[05:46] <colin_clark> yeah bcm something
[05:46] <geekkit> EADG_: lol
[05:46] <andkore> PurpZeY, gotz any ideas?
[05:46] <colin_clark> where can it be obtained?
[05:46] <pyrak> can any recommend a good backup program?
[05:46] <lgmalcantara> I can't get access to my SATA hard disc under ubuntu. anyone could help me, please?
[05:46] <PurpZeY> colin_clark: http://code.google.com/p/aceracpi/
[05:46] <Dr_willis> xlp,  so its empty?
[05:46] <Dr_willis> You can remove the dir.. but it will get remade if fsck needs it. I belive
[05:46] <EADG_> geekkit: nobody in the dorm knew about usenet a.b.p.e
[05:46] <geekkit> EADG_: thats funny.... reminds me of a friend who use to collect pr0n from dial up
[05:46] <xlp> Dr_willis: its taking 2gigs of space
[05:46] <geekkit> EADG_: lol
[05:46] <slavik> is there a nice frontend for mencoder to only deal with audio?
[05:46] <pidator> ermac0 "smb" command not found
[05:46] <PurpZeY> andkore: Well, it seems like it would be tough b/c you are going to edit your partition table..and once you are in windows you can't do that.
[05:47] <Dr_willis> xlp whats in it? have you looked? if you just formated the disk.. there cant be anything in it.
[05:47] <geekkit> EADG_: or a.b.p.e.h.
[05:47] <geekkit> lol
[05:47] <geekkit> brb
[05:47] <ermac0> pidator, sorry, you go to /etc/samba/
[05:47] <xlp> Dr_willis: it wont let me, i dont have permission
[05:47] <andkore> PurpZeY, wait how is this different from downloading the stuff from the internet and installing?
[05:47] <ermac0> pidator, then edit the smbusers file to <username> = "username" and save
[05:47] <PurpZeY> andkore: As far as I am aware you need to burn a disc.
[05:47] <colin_clark> okay I've downloaded it. Now I'll see if i can figure out how to install it
[05:48] <Dr_willis> xlp,  thats what 'sudo' is all about. :)
[05:48] <andkore> PurpZeY, thats the whole point of this, you don't. i just dont wanna waste the time redownloading it
[05:48] <ermac0> pidator, make use smb.conf has the security option commented which it should by default
[05:48] <colin_clark> I'm still rough on the whole installing without an exe thing
[05:48] <Dr_willis> xlp,  sudo ls -l /whatever/
[05:48] <pidator> ermac0 in /etc/samba/ there is only gdbcommands smb.conf and smb.conf.save there is no smbusers file
[05:48] <pidator> ermac0 what security option?
[05:48] <PurpZeY> andkore: What makes you think you don't have to? Where are you reading that?
[05:49] <ermac0> pidator, create a new file named smbusers
[05:49] <andkore> PurpZeY, on the ubuntu website. lemme get a link. i can't cuz my cd burner is not working. i can read cds but not write correctly
[05:49] <xsist> colin_clark use the package manager or if you use source just remember ./configure make && make install
[05:49] <geekkit> for successful set up of SAMBA: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202605
[05:49] <xlp> ahh, screw it
[05:49] <ermac0> pidator, then plugin the information inside that file you made
[05:49] <chapium> weird... when I use gnome and logout, my system hangs.  If I use xfce and log out it doesnt
[05:49] <xlp> how do i kill ubuntu and grub? :"P
[05:50] <xsist> format
[05:50] <geekkit> xlp: huh?  you can always crawl back to windoze
[05:50] <pidator> ermac0 how exactly do I create a new file via CLI (im using ubuntu server) and what information do I need to "plugin"
[05:50] <xlp> geekkit: well id love to use linux but grub doesnt work
[05:50] <geekkit> xlp: but you've seen the other side
[05:50] <Sepero> colin_clark: Did you try searching in Synaptic Package Manager for your driver?
[05:50] <geekkit> xlp: what are you trying to do?
[05:50] <andkore> PurpZeY, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromWindows
[05:50] <xlp> get linux to work
[05:50] <xlp> thats all

[05:50] <geekkit> help
[05:50] <xlp> k
[05:50] <lgmalcantara> ermac0: Hey man. Good evening (here anyway). I'm sorry. I can't get access to my SATA hard disc under ubuntu. Could you help me, please?
[05:51] <geekkit> you'll have to do better than that xlp
[05:51] <xsist> insert the install cd is a good place to start
[05:51] <ermac0> pidator, ok , you use emacs, or vi to start a document, like emacs -nw thename
[05:51] <geekkit> lgmalcantara: try setting your BIOS to defaults...worked for me
[05:52] <lgmalcantara> geekkit: Thanks man! :D
[05:52] <geekkit> xlp: if you specify what your problem is you'll most likely get much better help/tec support
[05:52] <pidator> ermac0 OK i hate vi how do I get out of it (I'll use nano)
[05:52] <lgmalcantara> ill try that
[05:52] <xlp> i have 3 hdd's, hd0 (sda) is winxp, hd1 (sdb) is backup, hd2 (sdc) is linux with multiple partitions (80gig as /, 4gig as swap, rest as ntfs/ext3/whatever). installed linux 3 times and grub keeps giving me error 17, now ubuntu wont let me completely format the linux drive as lost&found keeps appearing using 2gigs and i cant view the contents
[05:52] <geekkit> y.w. lgmalcantara: thank me after it actually works
[05:52] <geekkit> :P
[05:52] <xlp> what i want is to be able to dual boot into windows xp and linux
[05:52] <xlp> but i keep getting grub 17
[05:52] <ermac0> pidator, the information you plugin, is what i stated above <username> = "username" where username  is the username that you have access under ubuntu
[05:53] <Lilacor> 
[05:53] <ermac0> pidator, cntl z


 where do you find a package manager?
[05:53] <PurpZeY> andkore: Why can't you just follow the instructions on that page?
[05:53] <dotdashandy> Okay well, I tried booting with "noacpi noprobe" and now i'm hanging at a blank screen instead of a cursor
[05:53] <xlp> grub is pointing to all the right places as well
[05:53] <Jordan_U> xlp, For the Lost and Found problem use sudo ( or "gksudo nautilus" to view it with the GUI )
[05:53] <andkore> PurpZeY, i'ma tyr
[05:54] <geekkit> xlp: did you manually diddle your /etc/grub.conf ?
[05:54] <xlp> geekkit: no, i just viewed it and was pointing where it needs to be
[05:54] <Sepero> colin_clark: System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Man...
[05:54] <xlp> gksudo come with ubuntu live cd?
[05:54] <Lilacor> I'm very irritated with my winxp guest under ubuntu 7.04, I can't get the time working correctly!!! >:-(
[05:54] <Jordan_U> xlp, Yes
[05:54] <geekkit> no but you pointed it to where it needs to be?
[05:55] <geekkit> did you edit it or not?
[05:55] <Jordan_U> xlp, gksudo just runs GUI programs as root
[05:55] <pidator> ermac0 ok I added the line: <Administrator>
[05:55] <xlp> geekkit: yeah but doesnt matter now, i formatted but now i cant get rid of that lost&found folder... i want to reinstall but gpart keeps saying it cannot because the drive is mounted (that damn folder)
[05:55] <pidator> ermac0 should smbusers = smbusers.conf?
[05:56] <ermac0> pidator, no just smbusers
[05:56] <Jordan_U> xlp, How is the Lost and Found folder preventing you from unmounting the partition?
[05:56] <geekkit> xlp: start over again and follow the installation instructions *carefully*  ... chances are you said somethinng you didn't realize you were saying
[05:56] <xlp> let me get into gparted again
[05:56] <ermac0> pidator, so it should be <administrator> = "administrator"
[05:56] <pidator> ermac0 now what about other windows users I want to add that have their own user account in windows? I just add there names too...OK got admin straight
[05:57] <ermac0> pidator, so when you try to login from a windows machine you'll virtually use your ubuntu login
[05:57] <Jordan_U> xlp, If you get an error that a partition is mounted in gparted just right click it and choose umount
[05:57] <pidator> ermac0 OK lets see if this works
[05:57] <ermac0> pidator, nah you need to make actual accounts
[05:57] <xlp> k, deleted all the partitions, ill post the error in a sec
[05:58] <ermac0> bah
[05:58] <xlp> mkfs.ext3 /dev/sdc1
[05:58] <pidator> ermac0 ok I try and login and its not working :(
[05:59] <xlp> says as error, /dev/sdc1 is mounted; will not make a filesystem here!
[05:59] <xlp> thing is, i unmounted it and when i create the new partition, says that
[06:00] <ermac0> pidator, in your smb.conf where your share is, is it set to be browable = yes, available = yes public = yes, guest ok = yes
[06:00] <xlp> then is appears as /media/disk-1 filesystem unkown, with lock and ! icons next to it
[06:00] <geekkit> pidator: try: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202605
[06:01] <ermac0> pidator, make sure your sharing something
[06:01] <pidator> ermac0 ok letme check for you gimmie a sec geekkit thanks for link
[06:01] <Icehawk78> Any recommendations for bittorrent clients that can be used both over SSH and from the command line?
[06:01] <pidator> icehawk78 rtorrent
[06:02] <Jordan_U> Icehawk78, rtorrent
[06:02] <dotdashandy> Ugh. I cannot win with this system >.<
[06:02] <geekkit> pidator: worked for me... 7.04 still needs a little diddling if you're sharing with windoze
[06:02] <EADG_> Icehawk78: rtorrent
[06:02] <xlp> so how do i access gksudo?
[06:02] <willzzz> hey who here knows the Intel integrated graphics chipsets well
[06:02] <EADG_> hmm, abit slow on that one I was.
[06:02] <geekkit> well off...so long and thanks for all the fish!
[06:03] <willzzz> FATAL: Module intel not found.
[06:03] <willzzz> even though i do have the relevant xserver module installed
[06:03] <ermac0> later Geekkit
[06:03] <Jordan_U> xlp, gksudo is a command you use in a terminal to run GUI applications as root, in a terminal ( or run dialog ) type: gksudo <whatever>
[06:04] <xlp> Jordan_U: so how would i get root access to that folder to delete it?
[06:04] <andkore> PurpZeY, hey u tehre?
[06:04] <PurpZeY> andkore: Yeah.
[06:04] <PurpZeY> andkore: Sort of...I am on the phone, but, fire away.
[06:04] <Lilacor> PurpZeY: hey you're still working with Ubuntu, great! :D
[06:05] <xsist_> knetworkmanager is pissing me off
[06:05] <Jordan_U> xlp, sudo rm -r /whatever/folder/you/want/to/delete or to do it from the file browser run: gksudo nautilus
[06:05] <PurpZeY> Lilacor: I am indeed...And loving it...=)...Thanks!
[06:05] <Zex_Suik> Help Question: I am a noob, fresh install of ubuntu feisty fawn, can't login with the credentials I provided during install. What can I do
[06:05] <Dr_willis> Hmm.. anyone else the default bookmarks in a ubuntu install should have a selection of Basic Linux tutorial sites? :)
[06:05] <Lilacor> PurpZeY: good stuff :)
[06:05] <xsist_> zex
[06:05] <Dr_willis> Zex_Suik,  make sure your caps lock isent on.
[06:05] <pidator> ermac0 here is my pastebin, maybe you can get something out of this if you can't i"ll follow the link geekkit gave me? http://pastebin.com/938802
[06:05] <Dr_willis> Zex_Suik,  password is case senestive.
[06:05] <Zex_Suik> thanks Dr_willis tried all that, justa linux noob
[06:06] <Zex_Suik> xsist_ yes?
[06:06] <xoqa> is there a command line aim client in the ubuntu repository?
[06:06] <xsist_> zex you may have to reinstall
[06:06] <Jordan_U> Zex_Suik, You can reset your password by booting into single user mode
[06:06] <Zex_Suik> Jordan_U how do I do that?
[06:06] <Dr_willis> Zex_Suik,  so you some how have frogotten, or misspelt your initial users password eh?
[06:06] <colin_clark> I'm trying, but i cant figure out how to use the package manager to open any of the files an this acer_acpi directory i extracted
[06:06] <Dr_willis> Zex_Suik,  you do rember the users name?
[06:06] <Zex_Suik> Dr_willis very possible I misspelled
[06:06] <Zex_Suik> but not twice likely
[06:07] <Zex_Suik> user name is always four letters for me
[06:07] <Zex_Suik> pass is always double checkked
[06:07] <Dr_willis> Zex_Suik,  thats why i always use 'password' for my password. :)
[06:07] <Dr_willis> :)
[06:07] <ermac0> pidator, ok i'm looking
[06:07] <dotdashandy> Okay. What's chagned? I can boot the 5.10 Live CD perfectly with default settings, but I can't run the 7.04 alternate installer cd at all.
[06:07] <andkore> This procedure should be possible using a disk image, but it may be necessary to use a different kernel and pass some special argument in menu.lst to tell it to boot from the CD image (Has been achieved using Knoppix). <-- anyone know more about how to install linux from windows using this method but with an disc image rather than netoot?
[06:07] <Zex_Suik> xsist_ is there a way to install over the existing install without formatting or messing with the partitions?
[06:07] <xsist_> colin_clark what exactly are you trying to install
[06:08] <Jordan_U> Zex_Suik, When you boot press escape to see the grub menu, then "e" to edit the first line, then "e" again on the line that shows the kernel parameters...
[06:08] <xsist_> yes just select the partition its on when installing
[06:08] <colin_clark> the acer_acpi i downloaded so I can turn on my wifi device
[06:08] <ermac0> pidator, let me ask this, are you trying to look at windows shares, or look at your ubuntu shares from windows?
[06:08] <colin_clark> but when i extracted everything, it has a pretty opaque set of install instructions
[06:08] <Zex_Suik> Jordan_U okay so at the grub menu press e then e again
[06:09] <Zex_Suik> Jordan_U then what? how do I reset the username/pass?>
[06:09] <kevin> help
[06:09] <pidator> ermac0 I'm trying to setup the ubuntu shares mounted on /srv to look at my ubuntu shares and backup
[06:09] <kevin> anybody ?
[06:09] <kevin> list
[06:09] <kevin> ??
[06:09] <RoC_MasterMind> kevin, ask.
[06:09] <_david> on my fresh install of fiesty server, i'm getting this error.  How should I fix it? W: GPG error: http://security.ubuntu.com feisty-security Release: Unknown error executing gpgv
[06:09] <_david> W: GPG error: http://us.archive.ubuntu.com feisty Release: Unknown error executing gpgv
[06:09] <_david> W: GPG error: http://us.archive.ubuntu.com feisty-updates Release: Unknown error executing gpgv
[06:09] <pidator> ermac0 look at ubuntu shares from windows
[06:09] <Zex_Suik> Jordan_U is it okay if I pm you?
[06:09] <xsist_> colin is it a .deb or .tar.gz
[06:09] <kevin> lot
[06:09] <Jordan_U> Zex_Suik, Actually, now that I think of it Ubuntu's "recovery mode" boots to single user mode, so just choose that instead
[06:09] <kevin> out
[06:10] <kevin> what ?
[06:10] <Jordan_U> Zex_Suik, Yea, but it is better to stay in the channel where other people can chime in to help
[06:10] <colin_clark> ,tar,gz
[06:10] <colin_clark> xsist - its a .tar.gz
[06:10] <xsist_> the packager manager cant help you then
[06:10] <Zex_Suik> Jordan_U going to switch to pocket pc IRC screen is not big enough to read a whole channel
[06:10] <colin_clark> oh. well crap
[06:10] <kevin> byebye
[06:11] <adante> howdy, i'm running ubuntu in virtualpc - is there anything different I should do with regards to changing the resolution?
[06:11] <xsist_> you have to ./configure make && make install
[06:11] <xsist_> adante not really
[06:11] <colin_clark> just type that into a terminal while in the directory i extracted?
[06:11] <ermac0> pidator, heh
[06:11] <Jordan_U> Zex_Suik, Ok, I don't mind you PMing then ( you can also join #ubuntu-classroom for a low traffic channel )
[06:11] <xsist_> its three commands but yes
[06:11] <pidator> ercmac0 lol tell me what I did wrong
[06:11] <xsist_> ./configure
[06:11] <xsist_> make
[06:11] <ermac0> pidator, do you have a Active DIrectory Windows 2000 or 2003 server running domain controller ?
[06:12] <xsist_> make install
[06:12] <Jordan_U> !compile | xsist_
[06:12] <ubotu> xsist_: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[06:12] <FireHazard17> how come some time you dont compile with ./configure and just use make && make install
[06:12] <xsist_> :)
[06:12] <pidator> ermac0 lol...no I don't even know what that is
[06:12] <pidator> ermac0 http://howtoforge.com/samba_domaincontroller_setup_ubuntu_6.10_p4?s=e2e03feb03610b9488458fd5fcd0c48c& :(
[06:12] <FireHazard17> i love compiling from source
[06:12] <xsist_> no particular reason im aware of fire
[06:13] <xsist_> just how i learned it
[06:13] <Zex_Suik> thanks bbiab to let you know how it went
[06:13] <ermac0> pidator, you don't need a netlogon or anything like that because you don't use profiles, my conclusion is that on pastebin, site i didn't see an actual share, I don't see you sharing anything yet.
[06:13] <Jordan_U> FireHazard17, Some packages don't need any special options to work on any system / configuration, those that do though use ./configure
[06:13] <ScottLij> are there any good podcasts related to Linux or Ubuntu in particular?
[06:13] <colin_clark> xsist - i will read that faq. but for now, it says bash: ./configure: no such file or directory
[06:14] <Indigo0086> Hello folks
[06:14] <xsist_> you have to issue it from inside the directory
[06:14] <pidator> ermac0 OK let me try this ALL over again using http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202605...do I need quota at all?
[06:14] <Jordan_U> !hi | Indigo0086
[06:14] <ubotu> Indigo0086: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[06:14] <FireHazard17> Jordan_U: thats what i xexpected i just wanted it confirmed
[06:14] <xsist_> colin there is an actual file in there called configure
[06:14] <Indigo0086> thanks
[06:15] <pidator> ermac0 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202605 do I need quota at all *
[06:15] <ermac0> pidator, nope, nothing, your a home user, with atleast professional, you don't need ubuntu working with a domain controller that would be an extra hassle
[06:15] <colin_clark> it doesnt look like it
[06:15] <Indigo0086> I'm trying to install ubuntu, but when I boot up my monitor goes blank after I chose to load the ubuntu install screen
[06:15] <xsist_> http://ubuntuos.com/ is an ok podcast
[06:15] <Indigo0086> my monitor is a Samsung Synchmaster
[06:15] <Indigo0086> anyone ever heard of this?
[06:15] <pidator> ermac0 *sigh* thank you sooo much ermac0, imma use that easy guide but man what a pain
[06:15] <pidator> thanks alot, i'lll be back
[06:16] <Cras2> how do i extract a file from a cd?
[06:16] <xsist_> colin it should be in there some where if it really is source code
[06:16] <Cras2> i keep getting an i/o read error
[06:16] <Refakki> hi all
[06:16] <ermac0> alright
[06:16] <J-_> I just installed LAMP on Dapper and was wondering and where I have to change the PHP.ini to? memory_limit or something?
[06:16] <ermac0> i might of said it in a complicated way.. hmm
[06:17] <Cras2> How do i extract a file from my cdrom i keep getting an I/O error
[06:18] <xsist_> lksdf
[06:18] <DarkFame> Cras2: could you paste the error?
[06:18] <Cras2> yeah
[06:18] <Cras2> hold on
[06:18] <Cras2> let my get it to pop up
[06:18] <onexused> Can I get all users to use the same kppp configuration?  I don't want to have to do it for every one.
[06:19] <Indigo0086> exit
[06:19] <Cras2> it will take a second it copies about 15 minutes of the video and then just errors
[06:19] <xsist_> #
[06:20] <DarkFame> onexused: it's a long time since I've used kppp, but it saves a config file in the home directory of the user. put it in all the users homes.
[06:20] <gnychis> so I setup a RAID0 and installed Ubuntu successfully... it boots and I can use it.  I can plug in additional SATA drives and it will boot... however when I plug in additional IDE hard drives it will no longer boot. any ideas?
[06:20] <dustin> This is probably a basic question, but I'm having trouble installing Ubuntu 7.04 Desktop because after the initial menu it switches to a graphics mode my monitor does not support. I've tried a changing the resolution, but I think the problem is that it needs to be 60hz. Anyone know how to set this?
[06:20] <Sepero> onexused: Have you trying searching the internet? I think it's possible.
[06:20] <PurpZeY> dustin: Are you able to complete the install?
[06:20] <Frogzoo> onexused: symlinks are amazing - and you can put the symlink in /etc/skel/
[06:20] <colin_clark> apparently to compile it i needed to install something called build-essential
[06:21] <Jordan_U> dustin, Have you tried booting in safe graphics mode?
[06:21] <dustin> PurpZeY: No the screen goes blank with an error message
[06:21] <DarkFame> onexused: if you haven't created the users yet, do as Frogzoo says.
[06:21] <dotdashandy> After installing 5.10 because i'm presuming it's going to work, can i put in my 7.04 cd and upgrade?
[06:21] <PurpZeY> dustin: Can you boot into the LiveCD
[06:21] <PurpZeY> !build-essential
[06:21] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[06:21] <Sepero> colin_clark: yes
[06:21] <dustin> Jordan, yes, but I get the same blank screen. I have also checked the disks to make sure they are good
[06:21] <onexused> DarkFame: Do you know offhand what the file is called?  I don't see it in ~ or ~/.kde.
[06:22] <onexused> Frogzoo: I will when I find the file.  Thanks.
[06:22] <Jordan_U> dustin, What GFX card do you have?
[06:22] <xsist_> colin clark sudo apt-get build-essential
[06:22] <Cras2> so annoying
[06:22] <dustin> Not sure, It's a hand-me-down computer, but it's not that old
[06:22] <Cras2> ok here we are
[06:22] <colin_clark> got er. 17 seconds remaining
[06:22] <dustin> I was hoping there would be an easy way to tell it to use 60hz at a given resolution
[06:23] <DarkFame> onexused: no, sorry. take a look in the home dir (ls -la).. or try using lsof when the app is running to see which files are open.
[06:23] <Cras2> Error "I/O error" while copying "/media/cdro...bla.avi".
[06:23] <DarkFame> dustin: what kind of monitor do you have?
[06:23] <Jordan_U> dustin, Safe mode should be safe with any monitor AFIK
[06:23] <Cras2> then it ask if i want to cancel or retry
[06:23] <DarkFame> Cras2: which program are you using to copy the file?
[06:23] <dustin> It's an 18" MAG that my previous Fedora install was able to use on that system.
[06:24] <Cras2> click&drag
[06:24] <Cras2> so um ubuntu
[06:24] <dustin> It is run through a KVM, but I don't think that would be a problem
[06:24] <DarkFame> dustin: do you still have a backup of your fedora install or the xorg.conf file?
[06:24] <Cras2> iv also cp
[06:24] <gdb> onexused: What are you looking for?
[06:24] <Sepero> onexused: What is the output of: ls /etc/kppp
[06:24] <dustin> No I nuked it because I liked the ubuntu UI much better
[06:24] <DarkFame> Cras2: is the cd scratched or something?
[06:24] <Jordan_U> dustin, You could try using the alternate ( text based ) install CD
[06:24] <onexused> gdb: kppp config file
[06:24] <Cras2> but it dosn't give me the verbose error cause i don't set it too
[06:24] <Cras2> no
[06:24] <Sepero> gdb: He wants to use one kppp config file for all users
[06:24] <Cras2> using
[06:25] <andkore_> hey guys i'm following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromWindows <-- that guide and i'm trying to download the installer but no luck
[06:25] <onexused> Sempero: no such file or directory
[06:25] <dustin> Jordan: does that have the options to install the same desktop setup?
[06:25] <Jordan_U> dustin, Yes
[06:25] <andkore> any suggestions? i can't seem to connect to the mirror server in order to get the installer
[06:25] <DarkFame> dustin: if you can look up the specs for your monitor, you can manually edit in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:25] <PurpZeY> andkore: what is the problem downloading?
[06:25] <stratos> hi all
[06:25] <xsist_> at boot just use the screen=800x600 option...
[06:25] <Cras2> wine i was able to copy the and save it as avi with virtualdub but its horriably buggy and blacks out my screen untill i move my mouse only restoring that part of my screen
[06:25] <Cras2> so wine sucks
[06:25] <andkore> PurpZeY: it says... bad archive mirror
[06:25] <DarkFame> Cras2: have you tried another cd-rom?
[06:25] <PurpZeY> andkore: That first link works perfectly for me.
[06:26] <stratos> who can help me? my floppy disk doesnt work ... it's urgent
[06:26] <tanlaan> Hello everyone =] 
[06:26] <andkore> PurpZeY: no i'm actually booted into linux now
[06:26] <dustin> Ok, maybe I'll do that. Once I get it installed I can can edit the xorg.conf settings.
[06:26] <andkore> PurpZeY:  i followed all the settings
[06:26] <Cras2> DarkFame: i have tried the same cdrom on a win box
[06:26] <Cras2> and its ok

[06:26] <barun> hello all.  im installing ubuntu now on a system that has two 500gig drives.  i want to set up RAID 1 (never done that before).  I'm at the step where i can deal with disk partitions.  what do i need to do to set up raid?
[06:26] <dboy> I have a question on how to save a change to repository under the terminal.  I tried ctrl X but that is not it, thanks for any help.  total noob here
[06:26] <DarkFame> same cdrom on a different mainboard?
[06:26] <dustin> Thanks Jordan and DarkFlame
[06:27] <DarkFame> dboy: which editor are you using?
[06:27] <Jordan_U> andkore, I am not sure if it does the same thing, but wubi is an automated way to install Ubuntu from Windows
[06:27] <Cras2> sorry
[06:27] <PurpZeY> andkore: If you are in linux, where are you stuck?
[06:27] <Cras2> mainboard?
[06:27] <andkore> PurpZeY: i'm tryin gto download the installer
[06:27] <ChrisF-> when I install Ubuntu, I want Grub on the SDA disk.  So I click advanced options and (hd0) is in there.  What should I type in there to get grub installed right?
[06:27] <DarkFame> Cras2: yeah, did you try the cdrom on another computer?
[06:27] <Frogzoo> !raid | barun
[06:27] <ubotu> barun: Raid and LVM --> very easy guide for alternate CD : http://users.piuha.net/martti/comp/ubuntu/raid.html Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[06:27] <Cras2> yes
[06:27] <tanlaan> I need help with a Dell Inspiron 1100.
[06:27] <Cras2> on a win box and it copies fine
[06:27] <dboy> uhm just terminal, sorry if that does not help you
[06:27] <PurpZeY> andkore: but you said you are in windows no?
[06:27] <Cras2> i believe it to be a permissions issue
[06:27] <Jordan_U> tanlaan, Can you be more specific?
[06:27] <Frogzoo> tanlaan: you can skip the prelims
[06:27] <andkore> PurpZeY: its hard to understand
[06:28] <PurpZeY> andkore: Ok, well, are you in windows or linux as of now?
[06:28] <andkore> PurpZeY: i'm not in the ubuntu installer. i'm in that kernel that is used for netbooting
[06:28] <DarkFame> but it's another box, right?
[06:28] <dboy> gnome terminal 2.18 to be exact
[06:28] <andkore> PurpZeY:  i'm in linux
[06:28] <andkore> but not the ubuntu installer
[06:28] <Cras2> so chmod 776 /dev/hdc and chmod 776 /media/cdrom0
[06:28] <PurpZeY> andkore: What step of this guide?
[06:28] <Cras2> yeilds no results
[06:28] <andkore> last part basically
[06:28] <tanlaan> Jordan_U: Umm, I will go get more useful information and ask again later
[06:28] <DarkFame> Cras2: it could be the IDE controller acting up too
[06:28] <Cras2> yes
[06:28] <Sepero> onexused: ok, I'm still searching
[06:28] <Cras2> another box
[06:28] <andkore> PurpZeY: Save menu.lst, reboot, and select "Install Ubuntu" in the windows OS chooser then in GRUB. You now have a network installation of Ubuntu going.
[06:28] <Jordan_U> tanlaan, I meant what is the problem you are having?
[06:28] <DarkFame> Cras2: it cant be a permission problem if it starts to copy the file
[06:28] <andkore> but i cant seem to connect to the mirror
[06:29] <Cras2> ok
[06:29] <onexused> I'm dumber than I look, apparently.  http://pastebin.com/938807 I can't see it (lsof|grep kppp)
[06:29] <Cras2> the fix for the ide problem?
[06:29] <JustinWhitaker> Hey all, how do I change permissions on a usb harddrive? I got I mounted, but says I need root permissions.
[06:29] <PurpZeY> andkore: This procedure should be possible using a disk image, but it may be necessary to use a different kernel and pass some special argument in menu.lst to tell it to boot from the CD image (Has been achieved using Knoppix).
[06:29] <untung> hello
[06:29] <DarkFame> Cras2: how's the CD-ROM connected? is it alone? slave or master?
[06:29] <gdb> onexused: Would it be /etc/ppp/options?
[06:29] <dboy> I know I used f2 earlier when making a change to grub under terminal but trying to change under sources.lst no idea how to save
[06:29] <andkore> PurpZeY: yeah i see that
[06:29] <Jordan_U> !hi | untung
[06:29] <ubotu> untung: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[06:29] <Lard-O-Lad> do i need xinetd to run a cvs server??
[06:29] <PurpZeY> andkore: So, I figure that's what you need to do.
[06:29] <gat-man> hey guys
[06:30] <PurpZeY> Since that's what you want to do.
[06:30] <Cras2> master
[06:30] <andkore> PurpZeY: no i dont need to change options
[06:30] <Cras2> JustinWhitaker: chmod 776 /dev/usb
[06:30] <gat-man> what is an equivalent of CTRl+Alt+Delete on ubuntu/
[06:30] <onexused> gdb: I don't see my settings in there.
[06:30] <DarkFame> Cras2: is it "alone" or is there a slave connected too?
[06:30] <gat-man> ?
[06:30] <andkore> PurpZeY: i can't even get connected to the mirror server
[06:30] <ChrisF-> when I install Ubuntu, I want Grub on the SDA disk.  So I click advanced options and (hd0) is in there.  What should I type in there to get grub installed right?
[06:30] <Cras2> has a slave connected to it
[06:30] <Cras2> but the slave is dead
[06:30] <Cras2> :(
[06:30] <adante> aaand i just turfed the install
[06:30] <Cras2> so
[06:30] <DarkFame> Cras2: disconnect the slave
[06:30] <PurpZeY> andkore: I don't see anything about a mirror server in this guide
[06:30] <Cras2> alone
[06:30] <eboyjr> gat-man: theres a lot of them...
[06:30] <ChrisF-> that's my only hard drive... so I want Grub on that.  What do I put in to get grub installed correctly?
[06:31] <Cras2> ill try
[06:31] <Cras2> hold
[06:31] <andkore> PurpZeY: it's not in there
[06:31] <DarkFame> Cras2: a buggy/broken slave can mess up the transfer
[06:31] <eboyjr> gat-man: Ctrl+Alt+Esc is one, x-something
[06:31] <DarkFame> Cras2: I've seen similar problems before with flaky devices
[06:31] <PurpZeY> andkore: I don't really understand your problem, perhaps you can be more clear.
[06:31] <xsist_> gat-man cad
[06:32] <eboyjr> gat-man: Ctrl+Alt+F1 is tty1
[06:32] <andkore> PurpZeY: yeah ok so if i understand this right, what i need to do is download the ubuntu installer so that i can install ubuntu from the disc image i have on my windows partition
[06:32] <andkore> then i can just do everything i could do with a regular ubuntu install
[06:32] <h4ngedm4n> where is the proper place to set the hostname? /etc/hosts or something else?
[06:32] <andkore> because right now i'm not on the ubuntu installer
[06:32] <PurpZeY> andkore: This instlux thing?
[06:33] <andkore> i'm on some netboot kernel that i booted from the windows / grub thing
[06:33] <andkore> PurpZeY: this does the equivalent of that
[06:33] <andkore> but i did it manually
[06:33] <xsist_> goodnight all
[06:33] <PurpZeY> andkore: Ok, I am following, but now...
[06:33] <Sepero> onexused: You get your problem solved yet????
[06:34] <JustinWhitaker> Thanks Cras2, I forgot what that command was.
[06:34] <andkore> PurpZeY: lol now what
[06:34] <DarkFame> /etc/skel is a "skeleton" that's copied over to the users home directory when the user is created.
[06:34] <onexused> Sepero: no.  I'm googling for it and haven't found anything sueful
[06:34] <onexused> useful*
[06:34] <Sepero> ok, I'm still searching too
[06:34] <DarkFame> onexused: have you checked /etc ?
[06:34] <andkore> PurpZeY:  maybe m network card isn't supported in that kernel?
[06:35] <onexused> DarkFame: looking now
[06:35] <NemesisD> hi im trying to help somebody install ubuntu on a laptop and they are getting the following error: can't access tty; job control turned off
[06:35] <PurpZeY> andkore: I don't see anything about network here...Once you've setup those files, and changed menu.lst you should be able to configure it to read the disc image. Which is what I thought you wanted to do...Otherwise, if you are trying to get a network install, I think it'd be prudent to do it wired.
[06:35] <NemesisD> and also they are seeing init tranfs
[06:35] <ChrisF-> when I install Ubuntu, I want Grub on the SDA disk.  So I click advanced options and (hd0) is in there.  What should I type in there to get grub installed right?
[06:36] <andkore> PurpZeY: well what would i need to do to menu.lst ?
[06:37] <snake> how to merge a free space partition with the one that i have ubuntu
[06:37] <PurpZeY> andkore: In all honesty, I don't know, I have to go to bed, b/c I have to work in the morning, and I'm sorry to "cut you off" but...IMO, what I would do is, start at the top, using that instlux install.
[06:37] <andkore> PurpZeY: ok thanks man
[06:37] <andkore> anyone been following this conversation?
[06:38] <JustinWhitaker> No. not really.
[06:38] <DarkFame> onexused: /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/kppp/global-settings.html
[06:38] <PurpZeY> andkore: I like to tinker to learn, but at some point it becomes counter-productive...You've got the app, might as well use it. Jordan_U also mentioned trying to use Wubi earlier...but I'm not sure if that works for partitions or just direct windows install.
[06:38] <JustinWhitaker> For me it's slow. Adept is running in the background
[06:38] <andkore> PurpZeY: i'll try those, but the thingie does the same thing
[06:38] <andkore> i think u should know that
[06:38] <andkore> it just automates exactly what i did
[06:39] <andkore> andkore>	i think u should know that <-- disregard that line
[06:39] <andkore> i'll try wubu
[06:39] <andkore> wubi
[06:39] <PurpZeY> andkore: Sometimes automation, is better than user...=)...Ok, good luck my friend.
[06:39] <onexused> DarkFame: I really should have installed docs for kppp, eh?
[06:39] <PurpZeY> Goodluck and goodnight.
[06:39] <andkore> ty
[06:40] <DarkFame> onexused: it isn't there?
[06:40] <_david> how should i create a xen guest domain?
[06:40] <onexused> found the file.  ~/.kde/share/config/kppprc
[06:40] <onexused> DarkFame: no.
[06:40] <onexused> DarkFame: Thanks for the help.  Found it in ~/.kde/share/config/kppprc.
[06:41] <DarkFame> onexused: great, now you need to put that file in each home directory. the easiest way is to copy it to /etc/skel (preserving the directory stricture)
[06:41] <onexused> DarkFame: ok
[06:41] <DarkFame> if your users already exists, /etc/skel won't help.
[06:41] <DarkFame> /etc/skel is copied to the users home when the user is created.
[06:41] <snake> i have an empty partition and i want to merge it with my ext3 partition without deleting the ext3. is this possible
[06:41] <snake> ??
[06:42] <DarkFame> snake: are you using LVM?
[06:42] <onexused> DarkFame: The users do already exist.  I'll copy it to their homes and chown it.
[06:42] <onexused> DarkFame: or symlink from somewhere public
[06:42] <DarkFame> onexused: yeah, that would work. remember to chown and chgrp.
[06:42] <DarkFame> symlinks are better
[06:43] <DarkFame> because then you only need to change the symlinked file
[06:43] <snake> DarkFame: sorry for the ignorance but i am newbie and i do not know what lvm is
[06:43] <DarkFame> if you need to change the config later
[06:43] <onexused> DarkFame: Is there a good/standard place to store something like that?
[06:43] <DarkFame> snake: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_Volume_Manager_(Linux)
[06:44] <leros> is there some kind of power settings that I can use to setup different power modes for my laptop? like in XP, i had a "sleep mode" power setting that turned off the display in 1 minute
[06:44] <DarkFame> onexused: I suggest using /etc
[06:44] <Frogzoo> snake: LVM is a virtual file system that lets you abstract away from physical disk partitions
[06:45] <snake> ok . i just installed lvm
[06:45] <DarkFame> snake: if it's not in lvm, I suggest for example moving the biggest directories (/home, /var to the new partition) and mount them in the root acordingly.
[06:46] <dboy> Maybe I missed it but can anyone tell me how to save a change to sources.lst using gnome-terminal?
[06:46] <DarkFame> dboy: you must tell me which editor you are using to edit the file.
[06:46] <dboy> Like I said total noob, how will I know what the editor is?
[06:46] <waudette> Is anyone available to help me install flash on umbutu 7.x Desktop,  I am new to Debian and Umbutu.  I know that I need to add a dep in gedit /etc/apt/sources.list then sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree.  I keep getting an error of Package flashplugin-nonfree has no installation candidate.
[06:46] <snake> i have a 70 GB free partition and the linux partition that i am using that is 50 gb. I just want to add the 70 GB free space in this that i am using BUT without deleting this
[06:46] <spAcE> lala
[06:46] <DarkFame> dboy: did you type pico /etc/sources.list ?
[06:47] <JustinWhitaker> hmmm, chmod does not work. the drive was mounted on /media/usbdisk...
[06:47] <tanlaan> Has anyone heard of problems with Ubuntu and the Dell Inspiron 1100?
[06:47] <wdwadwaidh> Anny body home. Ai want to register a nick
[06:47] <JustinWhitaker> what would be the chown command?
[06:47] <dboy> sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:47] <dboy> used that
[06:47] <din> JustinWhitaker: change ownership
[06:47] <DarkFame> snake: you can just create a new partition and mount it as /disk2 if you want.
[06:47] <spAcE> I put xubuntu on an old computer and its broken.
[06:47] <dre1> my terminal window will not start
[06:48] <Sepero> onexused: cp ~/.kde/share/config/kppprc /etc/ppp/peers/kppp-options
[06:48] <gdb> tanlaan: Do you already own this computer or are you looking to purchase one?
[06:48] <dboy> so I'm guessing pico and vim are types of editors?
[06:48] <logreeval> hi, im having trouble installing vmware on feisty, the cd vmware-server-distrib isnt working
[06:48] <DarkFame> dboy: you are now done and want to save:
[06:48] <DarkFame> dboy: you are now done and want to save?
[06:48] <din> dre1: which terminal?
[06:48] <waudette> dboy:  I did make some changes, but I am not sure I added the correct new sources for the plugin.
[06:48] <dboy> yes'm
[06:48] <snake> DarkFame: so i can not merge them together ??
[06:48] <onexused> Sepero: Thanks.  I already found the file but couldn't remember your name.
[06:48] <waudette> dboy:  Oops... never mind.
[06:48] <gdb> VietMen: /msg NickServ help
[06:48] <Lekre1> logreeval: sudo apt-get install vmware-server-distrib
[06:48] <DarkFame> dboy: Esc, :wq (to write and quit)
[06:49] <logreeval> thank you
[06:49] <dboy> lol no prob, waudette
[06:49] <spAcE> I put xubuntu on a computer, whenever it goes into a screen saver it freezes and goes back to the login menu. When i try to change the screen saver or change the settings, it freezes and does the same thing. Can someone please help me?
[06:49] <Sepero> onexused: How did you find it?
[06:49] <logreeval> hmm, nothing happened
[06:49] <dboy> thanks Darkfame
[06:50] <dboy> I'm sure I'll be back in here soon enough lol
[06:50] <DarkFame> snake: you must do it from a livecd if you want to change your current partition. to work with a partition you need to unmount it, and you cant unmount it when you're using it.
[06:50] <din> spAcE: xscreesaver is killing your x session, change your screen saver to something else
[06:50] <onexused> Sepero: 'sudo updatedb; locate kppp>Desktop/file' X)
[06:50] <spAcE> i cant change it because when i try to change it, it freezes again
[06:50] <ignignokt00> din: his x restarts whenever he goes to the screen saver dialog
[06:50] <spAcE> If theres a way i can just turn the screen saver off it would be great
[06:50] <f0rqu3> http://images.orfay.com/i/photos1/2007/06/28/19/c/e/f/cef699d7b3ddd7c04469572855bb71640_large.jpg
[06:50] <spAcE> in the terminal
[06:50] <f0rqu3> can you tell me the problem ?
[06:50] <logreeval> any thing else i can try to get this vmware to install?
[06:50] <spAcE> i dont really want a screen saver, I'm using a kvm switch between computers
[06:51] <Sepero> onexused: And you're sure that works???
[06:51] <din> spAcE: pkill xscreensaver
[06:51] <spAcE> ok
[06:51] <ignignokt00> does that kill it for good or just for the session
[06:51] <din> just for the session
[06:51] <ignignokt00> thought so :\
[06:51] <spAcE> well i dont turn it off anyway
[06:51] <dre1> my terminal tries to start but does not come up, it just says "starting terminal" but nothing happens
[06:51] <DarkFame> snake: if you boot up a livecd with qtparted
[06:51] <onexused> Sepero: The file contains all the settings I set.  I'm putting it in /etc/kde and symlinking it to people's homes as DarkFame suggested
[06:52] <din> spAcE: sudo apt-get remove xscreensaver
[06:52] <din> :)
[06:52] <ignignokt00> lol that works
[06:52] <ignignokt00> um
[06:52] <Jester45> im trying to make a iso image mirror but when i run "rsync -r   rsync://releases.ubuntu.com/releases/ ./releases/" all get is a whole bunch of skipping non-regular file "kubuntu/feisty/kubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.manifest" error or other files but same error
[06:52] <dre1> :my terminal tries to start but does not come up, it just says "starting terminal" but nothing happens
[06:52] <Jester45> wouldanyone like to tell me why?
[06:53] <ignignokt00> can anyone help me with power management?  i have it all set up so the monitor should always stay on and no screensaver comes on
[06:53] <din> dre1: gnome-terminal i take it?
[06:53] <dre1> yes
[06:53] <ignignokt00> but the monitor still goes off after 10-20 minutes
[06:53] <Sepero> onexused: ok
[06:53] <spAcE> thanks
[06:53] <din> dre1: can you open up an xterm?
[06:53] <spAcE> i think that worked
[06:53] <spAcE> Thanks din
[06:53] <rbil> ignignokt00: have you got it turned off in your BIOS?
[06:54] <din> ignignokt00: check /etc/X11/xorg.conf for "Option" DPMS
[06:54] <din> spAcE: np
[06:54] <onexused> ignignokt00: maybe it's a hardware function of your monitor?
[06:54] <onexused> ignignkt00: not that I know anything
[06:54] <din> dre1: alt+f2 and run xterm
[06:54] <din> then from the xterm run gnome-terminal and see what error you get.
[06:54] <ignignokt00> let me check xorg
[06:55] <ignignokt00> k
[06:55] <ignignokt00> there's Option "DPMS"
[06:55] <din> ignignokt00: if you disable Option DMPS it should turn off power management for your monitor
[06:55] <lmc_phx> every linux distro i've ever used seems to send black video to the monitor after a few minutes
[06:55] <din> comment it out
[06:55] <ignignokt00> aight
[06:55] <burnin> when manually partitioning during an install of feisty server and creating software RAIDs, is it normal for the installer to automatically pick and create the software RAID partitions for you?
[06:55] <din> you'll have to restart X too
[06:55] <dre1> says xwindow system error
[06:55] <onexused> !lexmark
[06:55] <din> dre1: that's it?
[06:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lexmark - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:56] <ignignokt00> k thank's, ill restart x and leave it alone to see if it stays on
[06:56] <onexused> !printing
[06:56] <ubotu> 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

[06:56] <dre1> and serial error 105, and a whole bunch of stuff
[06:57] <sparr> how can i avoid clamav upgrade warnings in my cron output?  without updating clamav more often than packaging allows
[06:57] <din> ouch
[06:57] <VietMen> I want to changes my host.
[06:57] <spAcE> din do i have to restart to get that working
[06:58] <DarkFame> VietMen: System -> Administration -> Network
[06:58] <springuy> Hi, I got just now an update in feisty fawn, relative to kernel. Where can I find infos (changelogs) about updated packages?
[06:58] <spAcE> i think the screen saver still goes on
[06:58] <VietMen> /version
[06:58] <din> spAcE: if you uninstalled it, then it should not.
[06:58] <mkeesey> sparr, do you still want other output, or does it matter?
[06:58] <VietMen> Vietnamese Irc Version is UltimateIRCd(Tsunami)-3.0(00).rc3
[06:58] <din> unless you are using something else for a screensaver
[06:59] <spAcE> is there a way to test it
[06:59] <sams_choice> i want to learn how to program applications in Linux
[06:59] <sams_choice> where should I start ?
[06:59] <din> xscreensaver-demo will run the dialog
[06:59] <spAcE> din : i typed glxgears into the terminal
[06:59] <sams_choice> or I should say, for Linux
[06:59] <mkeesey> if you don't want any input, you should be able to just put "> /dev/null 2>&1" after the command in crontab
[06:59] <DarkFame> sams_choice: language?
[06:59] <waudette> Is anyone available to help me install flash on umbutu 7.x Desktop,  I am new to Debian and Umbutu.  I know that I need to add a dep in gedit /etc/apt/sources.list then sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree.  I keep getting an error of Package flashplugin-nonfree has no installation candidate.
[06:59] <sams_choice> DarkFame: yeah, what language should I learn ?
[06:59] <spAcE> and then it went into a blank screensaver, x restarted again
[06:59] <DarkFame> sams_choice: C++
[06:59] <spAcE> when i hit the keyboard
[07:00] <vbabiy> how can i find what input key is giving
[07:00] <onexused> I tried setting up the printer using instructions I found on the ubuntu wiki, but the only driver lexmark has for my printer says it needs rpm to install.
[07:00] <mkeesey> sams_choice - I would start out with python if you haven't programmed before.
[07:00] <bruenig> waudette, pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:00] <din> spAcE: you have bigger problems than an a screensaver
[07:00] <bruenig> !paste | waudette
[07:00] <ubotu> waudette: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[07:00] <onexused> not wiki, docs.  Sorry
[07:00] <dotdashandy> sams_choice: I'd pick REALBasic to start off in
[07:00] <din> spAcE: grep "EE" /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:00] <crackerbox> hey guys
[07:00] <sams_choice> I can program a little in PHP, but with Python can I program applications in Linux ?
[07:00] <din> err
[07:00] <din> wrong file
[07:01] <sams_choice> not IN but for, I mean
[07:01] <DarkFame> sams_choice: yes, you can with python.
[07:01] <din> spAcE: grep "EE" /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[07:01] <sams_choice> cool
[07:01] <rbil> onexused: man alien
[07:01] <waudette> bruenig: Sorry, I thought it better if I was more descript than not.
[07:01] <bruenig> !alien | rbil  onexused
[07:01] <ubotu> rbil  onexused: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[07:01] <sparr> mkeesey: id like other output, if any comes
[07:01] <bruenig> waudette, pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:01] <spAcE> type that in the terminal din?
[07:01] <crackerbox> i have manually created a ubuntu LiveCD / LiveUSB ... anyone know anything about that type of thing
[07:02] <din> spAcE: yes
[07:02] <spAcE> Im very new with x
[07:02] <spAcE> ok
[07:02] <crackerbox> specifically about how casper works?
[07:02] <waudette> bruenig: Done.  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27716/
[07:02] <vbabiy> is there a way to see the raw input of a key
[07:02] <AzMoo> My installation of Ubuntu seems to be stuck on "Setting users and passwords." Is there any way I can prod it along?
[07:03] <crackerbox> im trying to disable the hooks built into the liveCD that dont allow restricted proprietary nvidia drivers to be automatically used
[07:03] <bruenig> waudette, should work, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[07:03] <din> spAcE: there is another way to test it too. sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop, then when you get a prompt, just login, and run startx. when it crashes there will be a reason stating why.
[07:03] <spAcE> whoa
[07:03] <spAcE> stuff came up
[07:03] <spAcE> hold on
[07:03] <mkeesey> In that case, you may need to write something to filter the output like a shell script using awk or something.
[07:03] <din> spAcE: of course :)
[07:03] <DarkFame> stuff?
[07:03] <mkeesey> I'm not all that familiar with clamav, sorry.
[07:03] <spAcE> im using a kvm switch between another comptuer so i cant paste
[07:03] <din> by stuff he means errors.
[07:03] <raddy> Hello Everybody
[07:03] <DarkFame> lol
[07:03] <waudette> bruenig: Well that makes me feel better but still no go.  I get this error sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[07:04] <din> spAcE: get synergy
[07:04] <spAcE> :O
[07:04] <springuy> Where can I find infos (changelogs) about updated packages?
[07:04] <waudette> bruenig: argh... Package flashplugin-nonfree is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[07:04] <spAcE> what is that
[07:04] <din> synergy2.sourceforge.net
[07:04] <spAcE> k
[07:04] <din> software kvm
[07:04] <bruenig> waudette, that doesn't make any sense
[07:04] <din> paste between OS's
[07:04] <raddy> wols: is multiple kernels available for Ubuntu 7.0.4??

[07:04] <din> i run solaris, winders and linux on 4 machines at work from 1 kb, mouse
[07:04] <bruenig> waudette, here it is in the multiverse repository on your mirror, http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/multiverse/f/flashplugin-nonfree/
[07:05] <DarkFame> winders? :P
[07:05] <bruenig> you should be able to get that
[07:05] <logreeval> no matter what command i do for vmware server, nothing happens
[07:05] <din> logreeval: vmware rules.
[07:05] <spAcE> din: sudo apt-get install synergy?
[07:05] <DarkFame> vmware server rules. :)
[07:06] <immibis> bochs rules
[07:06] <DarkFame> haha
[07:06] <immibis> although i don't even use it
[07:06] <DarkFame> qemu rules
[07:06] <logreeval> i know, love it, but i cant get it to install
[07:06] <din> spAcE: if you have the repository set up, yes.
[07:06] <din> there is a package on the site too i think
[07:06] <waudette> bruenig: Ah... it looks like it is commented out.  I'll fix that.
[07:06] <logreeval> please, i really need to get vmware server up and running
[07:06] <din> logreeval: what seems to be the problem?
[07:07] <logreeval> well, when i try to install it, nothing happens at all
[07:07] <Dr_willis> I some how managed to find a repository that had vmwareserver in it.:)
[07:07] <logreeval> sudo ./vmware-install.pl
[07:07] <crackerbox> i need help
[07:07] <springuy> n2diy where in var/logs? there are many logs there
[07:07] <din> logreeval: no output at all?
[07:07] <logreeval> hmm, could i find that repository?
[07:07] <waudette> bruenig: Crud, guess that didn't help either.
[07:07] <Dr_willis> logreeval,  you are in the proper directory?
[07:07] <logreeval> nothing
[07:07] <logreeval> yes
[07:07] <bruenig> waudette, it was already uncommented
[07:07] <DarkFame> logreeval: nothing? new line?
[07:07] <logreeval> well, where should the vmware-server-distrib file be?
[07:07] <bruenig> waudette, just get the deb off of that link and install that
[07:07] <din> logreeval: try perl -e ./vmware-install.pl
[07:07] <crackerbox> is there a developer channel?
[07:08] <n2diy> springuy: your guess is as good as mine. The one that was most recently updated?
[07:08] <logreeval> nothing..
[07:08] <din> bleh
[07:08] <bruenig> crackerbox, not really, #ubuntu+1 is for the development version but I doubt there are many devs on it
[07:08] <waudette> bruenig: So maybe just copy it to my desktop then and then run some command?
[07:08] <logreeval> im supposed to do Alt+f2 and then type in the thing right?
[07:08] <spAcE> Din, i think i installed ib ty typing: sudo apt-get install synergy
[07:08] <din> logreeval: no
[07:08] <bruenig> waudette, download it, sudo dpkg -i whatever.deb
[07:08] <din> run it from a terminal
[07:08] <crackerbox> bru: im working on some pretty deep stuff
[07:08] <din> spAcE: cool
[07:09] <crackerbox> customized LiveUSB
[07:09] <din> spAcE: it's kinda confusing to configure
[07:09] <logreeval> ok.....
[07:09] <bruenig> crackerbox, deep
[07:09] <nj786> i do not know why my time keeps changing everytime i reboot my computer
[07:09] <spAcE> din: I thank you for your patience, I really dont know much about ubuntu
[07:09] <bruenig> made it sound like he was doing some programming almost
[07:09] <din> spAcE: not a problem
[07:09] <logreeval> when i try to type for the password, nothing happens
[07:09] <waudette> bruenig: np.  There are many versions there.  Which one?
[07:09] <spAcE> din: a friend did most of the work for me setting up everything
[07:09] <n2diy> nj786: what does it change to?
[07:09] <din> <-- unix engineer
[07:10] <bruenig> waudette, how about the latest one
[07:10] <spAcE> :O
[07:10] <crackerbox> i need information on how to allow casper to not disable nvidia drivers
[07:10] <waudette> ok
[07:10] <nj786> n2diy, it changes to another time
[07:10] <DarkFame> din: do you work as one?
[07:10] <din> DarkFame: yes
[07:10] <din> it's my job
[07:10] <DarkFame> din: lucky one :)
[07:10] <din> :)
[07:10] <spAcE> i just saw diehard.. the new one
[07:10] <spAcE> hax0rz
[07:10] <logreeval> any help?
[07:10] <DarkFame> I wish such jobs were available in my vicinity.
[07:10] <crackerbox> bru: casper is deep imho
[07:10] <din> logreeval: did you not get it to run?
[07:10] <crackerbox> cause there is no documentation any where
[07:11] <n2diy> nj786: ok, I figured that out! Any idea what time zone?
[07:11] <spAcE> din: how would i open synergy,
[07:11] <DarkFame> din: what do you use winders for then? :)
[07:11] <logreeval> it is asking for a password
[07:11] <logreeval> and i cant type my password
[07:11] <illriginal> Hey guys, what's the command to kill off firefox?
[07:11] <din> so give it your password
[07:11] <logreeval> its just blank
[07:11] <illriginal> It's runnin the background
[07:11] <logreeval> it doesnt work
[07:11] <bruenig> illriginal, killall -firefox-bin
[07:11] <spAcE> din: i did alt f2, synergy
[07:11] <din> logreeval: it will not show you your password
[07:11] <bruenig> illriginal, killall firefox-bin
[07:11] <logreeval> typing doesnt do anything
[07:11] <nj786> n2diy, i live in texas so i don know....
[07:11] <illriginal> thank you brunig :P
[07:11] <immibis> illriginal, killall firefox-bin
[07:11] <din> spAcE: one sec
[07:11] <logreeval> the blinky thing just stays put
[07:12] <din> logreeval: yes. unix will not show ***** for your password. but trust me it's tying it.
[07:12] <Dr_willis> logreeval,  you do realize that when you enter a password form the shell. NOTHIGN will get echoed back.
[07:12] <din> typin*
[07:12] <n2diy> nj786: ok, so your current, local time is what, 2311?
[07:12] <Dr_willis> No *, no spaces, nothing. :) type it in 'blind' and hit enter
[07:12] <springuy> n2diy many logs are just updated (messages, udev, dmesg, cups, etc) but nobody has sense for update: just dpkg.log but it returns just name of updated packages
[07:12] <logreeval> ok
[07:12] <logreeval> :)
[07:12] <crackerbox> open terminal and do "tzconfig"
[07:12] <nj786> n2diy, it is 12:12am
[07:12] <waudette> bruenig: I tried sudo dpkg -i http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/multiverse/f/flashplugin-nonfree/flashplugin-nonfree_9.0.31.0.4ubuntu2_i386.deb but no go.  What am I missing?
[07:12] <DarkFame> logreeval: when showing * you are showing how many characters you're typing to people watching, not very clever.
[07:12] <Dr_willis> Hmm I think i got vmware-server from  this repo -->  ## Canonical (RealPlayer10, Opera, DesktopSecure etc...)  deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu feisty-commercial main
[07:12] <din> spAcE: one machine will run a synergy server, the other a client
[07:12] <nj786> n2diy, that is the current time
[07:12] <din> you have to install it on both machines.
[07:12] <bruenig> waudette, download it first
[07:12] <Dr_willis> Now ive no idea WHERE i got that repo from. :)
[07:13] <logreeval> command not found
[07:13] <spAcE> din: like vnc?
[07:13] <DarkFame> din: synergy is like a software based KVM? I didnt know of this.
[07:13] <nj786> n2diy, i do not want it in military time
[07:13] <din> very similar yes.
[07:13] <din> DarkFame: i use it daily
[07:13] <n2diy> nj786: ok, so your UTC -5, what time does your computer think it is?
[07:13] <Dr_willis> synergy is handy when you can see both machines monitors.
[07:13] <spAcE> din: yeah i never got vnc working on windows but i sorta know
[07:13] <waudette> bruenig: That would have been obvious had I done this before.  But thanks for the patents.
[07:13] <DarkFame> din: ic, what about monitor?
[07:13] <Dr_willis> synergy takes a little bit of configuration of its /etc/ config file also.
[07:13] <ceil420> what reasons would Xorg have for using up 35% of my 512mb ram? (note: i did design a theme earlier and went back and forth testing it, but that was hours ago)
[07:13] <xerophyte> Does anybody know how can start xterm with big font and specific font size in gnome when i start from run box , i have mad a alias xterm with -font  and geometry option but it only works in another xterm not in the gnome run box .. does anybody have any way other making another shell script to call xterm with those parameters
[07:14] <din> DarkFame: monitor?
[07:14] <Dr_willis> xerophyte,  why not make a script? i got one in my users bin dir i call "bigterm"
[07:14] <logreeval> DarkFame: what?
[07:14] <DarkFame> din: yeah, you share keyb and mouse. but you still need a monitor.
[07:14] <DarkFame> logreeval: nm
[07:14] <din> spAcE: read the docs on the site for making a config file for synergy
[07:14] <din> it's pretty simple
[07:15] <spAcE> ok
[07:15] <din> DarkFame: yeah, you need 2 monitors at least really :)
[07:15] <gnychis> so I setup a RAID0 and installed Ubuntu successfully... it boots and I can use it.  I can plug in additional SATA drives and it will boot... however when I plug in additional IDE hard drives it will no longer boot. any ideas?
[07:15] <din> otherwise what is the point
[07:15] <waudette> bruenig: Ah... Firefox gave me a handy open with popup when I went to download it.  Package Installer said error:  wrong architecture i386
[07:15] <DarkFame> din: so you can't really replace a real KVM switch without using NX for example.
[07:15] <spAcE> i deffinatly typed the wrong url
[07:15] <speedo_> waudette:  are you using 64 bit ?
[07:15] <nj786> n2diy, i dono i changed it
[07:15] <bruenig> waudette, oh man, should have thought this, you are using 64 bit
[07:16] <nj786> to my correct time
[07:16] <waudette> bruenig: Maybe that is what is holding it up.  I am running Umbutu on an AMD 64 x2
[07:16] <nj786> but itll change when i reboot it
[07:16] <King_Leonidas> sup
[07:16] <King_Leonidas> anyone here
[07:16] <bruenig> waudette, there is no 64 bit flash
[07:16] <DarkFame> no
[07:16] <davidy> 0.0
[07:16] <DarkFame> there are 1029 users here
[07:16] <King_Leonidas> looolz
[07:16] <King_Leonidas> No way rly
[07:16] <xerophyte> Dr_willis, thats one way just wondering if there is another neat way to do it
[07:16] <King_Leonidas> 1031 :P
[07:16] <SusansSaviour> I JUST WANTED TO SAY - FOR THE PPL WHo"S NETWORKS CARDS AREN'T WORKING ANYMORE FROM STEP ONE;
[07:16] <SusansSaviour>  -- Do not ndiswrapper anymore. if you can't get it to install your card and the recommended driver is seemingly, "STUCK" ...
[07:16] <SusansSaviour> YOU CAN PROBABLY USE THE DEFAULT DRIVER.  4 installs later I realized THE WIFI LIGHT IS BROKEN, but 85#% better Signal.
[07:16] <SusansSaviour> Sorry for the caps, i am so excited, i am going to lay down, come back and support as best I can
[07:16] <speedo_> waudette:  you can have flash but will use 32 bit
[07:16] <bruenig> waudette, there are various hacks that purport to allow you around it, but no native 64 bit flash
[07:16] <bruenig> !ops
[07:16] <ubotu> Help! Mez, LjL, elkbuntu, imbrandon, DBO, gnomefreak, Hobbsee, rob, ompaul, Madpilot, Burgundavia, Seveas, CarlK, crimsun, ajmitch, tritium, Nalioth, thoreauputic, apokryphos, tonyyarusso, PriceChild, Amaranth, jrib, jenda, nixternal, Myrtti or mneptok
[07:16] <SusansSaviour> LOL PEACE
[07:16] <waudette> bruenig: Well that explains that!
[07:16] <King_Leonidas> I have the Ubuntu 7.04 CD, and was wondering if I can use it to update from 6.10
[07:16] <spAcE> Din: i will continue this tommorow or something, It's getting late here
[07:16] <King_Leonidas> instead of downloading everything from the interwebs
[07:16] <DarkFame> King_Leonidas: yes
[07:16] <n2diy> nj786: You don't know what time your computer is set to?
[07:17] <King_Leonidas> hooowwww!
[07:17] <spAcE> din: thanks for your help though
[07:17] <speedo_> waudette: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=341727 ........ just follow these instructions
[07:17] <nixternal> thanks bruenig, I think this one is OK, Susan got a little excited there :)
[07:17] <waudette> bruenig:  Is the code source available?  Maybe I can just re-build it?
[07:17] <DarkFame> King_Leonidas: you don't need the CD actually, you can do an internet upgrade.
[07:17] <crackerbox> nj: run tzconfig
[07:17] <King_Leonidas> but I WANT to use the CD
[07:17] <bruenig> ok, just saw 5 things come down, he stopped I guess
[07:17] <waudette> speedo_: Thx.
[07:17] <King_Leonidas> I don't want to wait for the stuff to dl
[07:17] <DarkFame> King_Leonidas: ok, that works too.
[07:17] <King_Leonidas> yeh, but how
[07:17] <bruenig> waudette, no flash is closed source
[07:17] <waudette> In your oppinion guys should I abandon the 64 bit version for now and go back to 32?
[07:17] <FunnyLookinHat> waudette, yes.
[07:17] <crackerbox> yes
[07:17] <bruenig> waudette, I think so
[07:18] <FunnyLookinHat> It's just not worth the hassle at this point.
[07:18] <bruenig> unless you need super long floats
[07:18] <ceil420> what reasons would Xorg have for using up 35% of my 512mb ram? (note: i did design a theme earlier and went back and forth testing it, but that was hours ago)
[07:18] <speedo_> waudette: I am on a 64 bit AMD ...... but using 32 bit firefox. The damn google toolbar's bookmarks and Java do not work with 64 bit firefox
[07:18] <waudette> I needed to hear that.  Thank you very much.  I'll reload.
[07:19] <speedo_> waudette: stick to 32 bit version and everything work
[07:19] <n2diy> nj786: Are you running X? Can you right click on "adjust date and time"?
[07:19] <speedo_> its fast ...... you won't see much difference
[07:19] <bruenig> is java not available for 64 bit yet?
[07:19] <DarkFame> stick with 32 bit unless you got more than 4 gigs of ram
[07:19] <onexused> gnychis: you still there?
[07:19] <n2diy> nj786: Are you running X? Can you right click on  your clock, and then "adjust date and time"?
[07:19] <speedo_> bruenig: It is but no java pluging
[07:19] <King_Leonidas> wow
[07:19] <speedo_> plugin
[07:19] <King_Leonidas> =/
[07:19] <bruenig> !netsplit
[07:19] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[07:19] <waudette> It's the same thing on Windows XP and Vista as well.  I am not surprised.
[07:19] <Anthology> i have a seperate internal hard drive i would like to use with linux, what is a good graphical hard drive editor that can format it etc...?
[07:19] <DarkFame> stick with 32 bit unless you got more than 4 gigs of ram
[07:19] <logreeval> i foudnt he respository
[07:20] <bruenig> speedo_, the plugin is included with normal java
[07:20] <bruenig> speedo_, is it not included?
[07:20] <crackerbox> anthology: gparted
[07:20] <onexused> any I even had an answer for him...
[07:20] <speedo_> bruenig: Firefox plugin doesn't not work with java
[07:20] <crackerbox> "$sudo apt-get gparted"
[07:20] <n2diy> nj786: Are you running X? Can you right click on  your clock, and then "adjust date and time"?
[07:20] <Anthology> thanks crackerbox
[07:21] <bruenig> speedo_, no I mean to say that real jre, not the one installed from firefox, actually comes with the plugin. You have to copy it over thoug
[07:21] <crackerbox> np
[07:21] <bruenig> h
[07:21] <bruenig> speedo_, not the one installed from the repos I meant
[07:21] <reed026> hello, I just finished installing Ubuntu Server on an older computer. The first few times I had was getting the grub 18 error. Now that I made the correct boot partion, when grub goes to load it does the count down, then the screen goes black and goes back into the bios testing and back into grub. It just keeps repeating this cycle.
[07:21] <speedo_> bruenig: Have you tried it
[07:21] <speedo_> ?
[07:21] <crackerbox> reed: sounds like a kernel error
[07:21] <din> ouch
[07:22] <waudette> DarkFame: I'll bug out for a bit then and reload.  It shouldn't take long.   This was the easiers Linux install I've ever made.
[07:22] <waudette> er.... done.
[07:22] <bruenig> speedo_, no
[07:22] <speedo_> bruenig: I tried messing with java ...... for like 1 week
[07:22] <bruenig> speedo_, is there a 64 bit jre?
[07:22] <reed026> How do I go about fixing it crackerbox?
[07:22] <din> lag--
[07:22] <speedo_> bruenig: best option was to use 32 bit firefox
[07:22] <crackerbox> reed: do you get the uSplash (animated splash screen)?
[07:22] <speedo_> bruenig: Yes there is
[07:23] <speedo_> but no firefox plugin
[07:23] <DarkFame> bruenig: do you have more than 4 gigs of ram?
[07:23] <bruenig> speedo_, where is the link
[07:23] <ceil420> what reasons would Xorg have for using up 35% of my 512mb ram? (note: i did design a theme earlier and went back and forth testing it, but that was hours ago)
[07:23] <din> ignignokt00: vmware installing?
[07:23] <ignignokt00> i commented out the dpms line in my xorg.conf and restarted x but the monitor still goes off after 10 mins
[07:23] <ignignokt00> what?
[07:23] <ignignokt00> thinking of the wrong person?
[07:23] <din> lol yeah, sorry
[07:24] <ignignokt00> haha np
[07:24] <DarkFame> lol
[07:24] <bruenig> DarkFame, no, I have 384
[07:24] <din> too many people asking questions
[07:24] <ignignokt00> yeah
[07:24] <ignignokt00> it's called linux :\
[07:24] <DarkFame> bruenig: don't bother with 64 bit.
[07:24] <din> ignignokt00: there's a power setting in xscreensaver
[07:24] <din> for your monitor
[07:24] <ignignokt00> yeah
[07:24] <ignignokt00> it's set to never go off
[07:24] <din> got that disabled?
[07:24] <din> hmmm
[07:24] <bruenig> DarkFame, I am not, I am just trying to see whether there is actually a 64 bit java plugin
[07:24] <RAOF> bruenig: Yes, there's a 64bit jre.
[07:24] <ignignokt00> oh
[07:24] <speedo_> bruenig: hassle free way to install firefox with flash, mplayer plugings and java ....... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202537
[07:24] <ignignokt00> maybe it's not
[07:25] <ignignokt00> :\ hang on
[07:25] <din> lol
[07:25] <ignignokt00> well
[07:25] <ignignokt00> in power management it's all set to "never"
[07:25] <ignignokt00> but in the main xscreensaver dialog it has a "regard comp as inactive after:"
[07:25] <ignignokt00> so i set that to never
[07:25] <ignignokt00> need i restart x to apply those changes?
[07:26] <DarkFame> no
[07:26] <pidator> fairly simple question: how do I freaking paste inside putty?
[07:26] <bruenig> speedo_, I am just wondering whether there is a 64 bit plugin or not, the plugin doesn't come separately except with ubuntu, which makes it separate
[07:26] <homerhome1> anyone have a deb for rhythmbox 11.1?
[07:26] <homerhome1> :)
[07:26] <din> ignignokt00: run xscreensaver-demo, click the advanced tab and uncheck the display power management enabled checkbox
[07:26] <reed026> crackerbox, I don't get the splacescreen. I get to where it says Grub #.## and then it says hit ESC to go to a different menu
[07:26] <bruenig> speedo_, so I could see a situation where you being an ubuntu person who hasn't installed it by itself before manually thinking that there is supposed to be some separate plugin when in reality it gets installed with jre but you have to copy it over
[07:27] <ignignokt00> din, xcreensaver-demo doesn't exist
[07:27] <DarkFame> reed026: that's normal if you don't have any other OSes installed (no menu displayed, grub boots OS directly)
[07:27] <din> ignignokt00: what version of ubuntu are you running?
[07:28] <ignignokt00> feisty
[07:28] <bruenig> speedo_, nevermind finally found a link, hopefully I will be able to install it and see
[07:28] <din> and xscreensaver-demo isn't there?
[07:28] <speedo_> bruenig: company like google can't even figure out how to make their bookmarks work on 64 bit ....... I am talking about their toolbar bookmarks, currently they don't work. There is no flash as I write this for 64 either. Same goes for Java plugin. I know I built a 64 bit Athlon myself, if there is a java plugin for 64 bit I would know about it
[07:28] <din> that's strange.
[07:28] <DarkFame> din: xscreensaver isn't installed by default in ubuntu
[07:28] <DarkFame> din: xscreensaver-demo
[07:29] <reed026> DarkFame, it doesn't load an OS though
[07:29] <meskes> hey guys got a weird situation here... I have a Realtek ALC861 chip and for some reason I can only get the right channel nor can I get the alsa drivers to install
[07:29] <din> DarkFame: it's the screensaver dialog
[07:29] <gat-man>  can someone help me install kiba-dock?
[07:29] <reed026> Darkfame, it gets to that GRUB screen and then goes back to Bios Boot / Testing
[07:29] <speedo_> bruenig: You will eventually end up using 32 firefox ...... ofcourse you can use it on 64 bit ubuntu without any problems
[07:30] <DarkFame> reed026: what's the last line before it reboots?
[07:30] <speedo_> bruenig: what's what everyone else is using ....
[07:30] <nj786> n2diy, yes i can

[07:33] <ignignokt00> hahaha
[07:33] <Flannel> !netsplit
[07:33] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[07:33] <bruenig> !caps | pidator
[07:33] <ubotu> pidator: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[07:34] <DarkFame> ignignokt00: look for seek errors and the like.

[07:36] <reed026> Darkfame: when I hit esc it brings me the OS load screen with Ubuntu kernel 2.6.20-15-server and then the recoverymode one and the Memtest86+
[07:36] <din> np. i'll be back on in the morning around 8 central.
[07:36] <eboyjr> I want to create a launcher, that installs RPM files... The command is, "sudo alien -i %u". Sometimes I see a capital %U, but the launcher isn't working when I drag an RPM to it.
[07:36] <reed026> I have Fiesty installed, should I have gotten the previous one insteal Darkflannel?
[07:36] <speedo_> nj786: texas is not on the ubuntu map
[07:37] <DarkFame> reed026: ok, are you able to boot anything? memtest86?
[07:37] <speedo_> nj786: choose any timezone and configure it yourself
[07:37] <reed026> Darkfame, I'm able to boot the memtest and that is all.
[07:37] <Anthology> root@craig-desktop:/home/craig# /etc/fstab
[07:37] <Anthology> bash: /etc/fstab: Permission denied
[07:37] <gat-man> can someone help me install  avant-window-navigator?
[07:38] <n2diy> speedo_: you don't need a map, you just need to know your time zone.
[07:38] <DarkFame> reed026: has it ever been working?
[07:38] <Flannel> gat-man: http://awn.wetpaint.com/page/Ubuntu+Feisty+Repository  has step-by-step instructions
[07:38] <reed026> I've had this computer run xubuntu and FreeNAS (small version of FreeBSD)
[07:38] <speedo_> n2diy: he is looking in the map actually ........ I am assuming a windows convert needing GUI assistant
[07:38] <DarkFame> reed026: I mean, this install.
[07:38] <reed026> I just couldn't make heads / tails of putting AMP on xubuntu
[07:39] <reed026> Oh, no it hasn't unfortunatly.
[07:39] <gat-man> Flannel: it doesnt have physics?
[07:39] <DarkFame> reed026: I'd try a reinstall then, repartition your harddrive.
[07:39] <Flannel> gat-man: What?
[07:39] <speedo_> nj786: do you dual boot ?
[07:39] <DarkFame> if not even the kernel boots
[07:39] <n2diy> speedo_: roger that, he told me he is in Texas, and the local time is 1238, so he is UTC -5,
[07:39] <nj786> speedo_, i odno what that is
[07:39] <DarkFame> that's very rare
[07:40] <speedo_> nj786: do you have windows installed also ?
[07:40] <reed026> I've done that several times, and it keeps coming up the same :(
[07:40] <speedo_> nj786: on the seperate partition
[07:40] <_Iamda> UTG is london time...
[07:40] <nj786> speedo_, no i hav kubuntu
[07:40] <DarkFame> reed026: ok, how did you partition it?
[07:40] <speedo_> nj786: only linux ?
[07:40] <nj786> and ubuntu
[07:40] <nj786> yes
[07:40] <nj786> LINUX ONLY
[07:41] <nj786> No windows
[07:41] <eboyjr> How can I make a launcher that passes parameters ( of when a file gets dragged onto it ) to a command. How would I do this?
[07:41] <DarkFame> $1
[07:41] <_Iamda> not, UTC is london time
[07:41] <DarkFame> launcher $1
[07:41] <Flannel> No.  UTC is UTC, london sometimes has DST.
[07:41] <DarkFame> London = GMT
[07:41] <speedo_> nj786: when you chat in IRC, just enter the first 3 letters of a user name and hit enter ...... sometimes you can get by enting the first 2 letters of a user name
[07:42] <speedo_> and hit tab
[07:42] <speedo_> nj786: Hit tab I mean
[07:42] <reed026> 100mb ext3 for the /boot ( if I didn't do this I get the Grub 18 error) I put this as the primary and at the beginning then 39GB for the ext3 primary drive at the beginning and 500mb for the swap at the end
[07:42] <gat-man> what's Affinity SVN ???
[07:42] <reed026> I can get to the grub command line screen Darkflame, if that helps any.
[07:42] <hippie> has any1 ever got yahoo video to work in linux?
[07:42] <bottle> hi i want to make my ubuntu like this http://www.alleslinux.com/screenshots.php?layout=default
[07:42] <gat-man> !Affinity SVN
[07:42] <nj786> speedo_: ok got it
[07:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about affinity svn - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:42] <DarkFame> reed026: what kind of computer is this?
[07:42] <eboyjr> How can I make a launcher that passes parameters ( of when a file gets dragged onto it ) to a command. How would I do this? ( Please reply with my name, "eboyjr" so I can see it )
[07:42] <gat-man> !Affinity
[07:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about affinity - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:42] <bottle> how?
[07:42] <gat-man> !SVN
[07:42] <ubotu> svn is Subversion: an open-source revision control system, which aims to be a compelling replacement for CVS. See http://subversion.tigris.org/
[07:43] <DarkFame> reed026: the problem is your /boot partition you see.
[07:43] <n30n1> would someone mind looking at an error output for me and leading me inthe right direction on fixing it. Its a busted package i was trying to remove with sudo apt-get autoremove -f
[07:43] <pidator> I chmod'd a couple of directories that aren't there anymore, are the chmod settings still there?
[07:43] <DarkFame> n30n1: busted package?
[07:43] <reed026> Gateway E3000 about 10 years old but I've rebuilt parts of it
[07:43] <n30n1> darkfame: http://pastebin.com/938819
[07:43] <bottle> how?
[07:43] <DarkFame> reed026: BIOS date?
[07:43] <speedo_> nj786: I used to have that problem long ago with fedora. My time would change, turned out my battery was dieing on me since the time was messing up in windos as well ........ I was dual booting
[07:43] <n30n1> darkfame: it failed half way through install because of a crash and it wont remove now
[07:44] <eboyjr> What is %u and %U?
[07:44] <Flannel> pidator: no
[07:44] <orbisvicis> system -> prefs -> remote desktop. Does that setup vncviewer, or is it something else ?
[07:44] <reed026> I don't believe I actually put a new bios on it.
[07:44] <pidator> thanks
[07:44] <n30n1> darkfame: storm knocked my power out while it was configuring itself from the package manager
[07:44] <orbisvicis>  vncserver
[07:44] <Flannel> pidator: well, if you deleted them no.  If you moved them, yes.  (on whatever their new location is)
[07:44] <reed026> It would probally be best to reinstall windows NT and do that I presume
[07:44] <n2diy> orbisvicis: variables?
[07:44] <speedo_> nj786: there is a battery in your CPU. its mounted on the mother board
[07:44] <pidator> flannel K i deleted them
[07:44] <DarkFame> n30n1: #
[07:44] <DarkFame> The following NEW packages will be installed:
[07:44] <DarkFame> #
[07:44] <DarkFame>   helix-player .. that's the problem.
[07:45] <nj786> screw it lol
[07:45] <eboyjr> What is %u and %U?
[07:45] <_Iamda> It's 06:45am in London
[07:45] <n30n1> Oh yeah. WHen i try to uncheck that from symantec it wont uncheck
[07:45] <n30n1> how do i manuall remove it from the list
[07:45] <n30n1> darkfame: is there a file that has a list of check items i could delete it from
[07:45] <n2diy> eboyjr:  variables?
[07:45] <DarkFame> n30n1: remove it from the cache directory
[07:46] <n30n1> alright
[07:46] <orbisvicis> n2diy, no? just wondering is system->prefs->remote desktop is vncviewer or xdmcp ?
[07:46] <n2diy> n3onl, qsl?
[07:46] <n30n1> n2diy, what?
[07:47] <Teknine> Hello, I am new to ubuntu and am currently on Feisty Fawn, and want a good P2P program (I hear Frostwire is good) but when trying to install I can't seem to get it to show up in any of my start menus
[07:47] <n2diy> n3onl, your nick isn't your call sign!?
[07:47] <Teknine> first day on ubuntu, any help would be appreciated thanks
[07:47] <ChrisF-> greetings.  I tried using synaptic to install nvidia-glx and it keeps returning this error...
[07:47] <ChrisF-> /var/cache/apt/archives/nvidia-glx_1%3a1.0.9631+2.6.20.5-16.29_i386.deb
[07:47] <n30n1> Teknine: its under internet section for me
[07:47] <Mr_Giraffe> !network
[07:47] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:47] <Mr_Giraffe> okay, that won't help.
[07:47] <DarkFame> n30n1: did you fix it?
[07:47] <n2diy> orbisvicis: vnc I believe.
[07:47] <ChrisF-> /var/cache/apt/archives/nvidia-glx_1%3a1.0.9631+2.6.20.5-16.29_i386.deb
[07:47] <Mr_Giraffe> does anybody have experience with a wireless adapter using the rt2570 chipset?
[07:47] <Teknine> n30n1: not for me, doesn't show up at all, also there is no tray icon :S
[07:47] <Mr_Giraffe> i'm having a problem with mine.
[07:48] <n30n1> darkfame: yeah i think so
[07:48] <Flannel> !frostwire | Teknine
[07:48] <ubotu> Teknine: frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[07:48] <n30n1> teknine: are you sure it installed
[07:48] <orbisvicis> Teknine, if not you can add via system-prefs-main menu
[07:48] <Flannel> Teknine: There's a part in there about how to do it
[07:48] <Mr_Giraffe> !rt2570
[07:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rt2570 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:48] <eboyjr> n2diy: How would I make it so that when I drag a file over a launcher, it runs a command with the file name in it. Particularly "sudo alien -i FILENAME"
[07:48] <Mr_Giraffe> !ralink
[07:48] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:48] <Teknine> n30n1: yes, shows up in package manager that it's installed
[07:48] <DarkFame> eboyjr: sudo alien -i $1
[07:48] <n30n1> teknine: youll have to manually add it to the list then
[07:49] <Mr_Giraffe> does anybody have experience with a wireless adapter using the rt2570 chipset?
[07:49] <n30n1> teknine: i think someone already sent you instructions on how to do that
[07:49] <eboyjr> DarkFame: okay... whats the %u thing about, then>
[07:49] <Teknine> n30n1: yes they did..
[07:49] <Teknine> thanks.
[07:49] <DarkFame> %u might work too.
[07:50] <eboyjr> DarkFame: Okay, I'll try it.
[07:50] <n2diy> eboyjr:  don't drag and drop something like that, rely on your command line. Playing with Alien is tricky stuff.
[07:50] <orbisvicis> ok if 'remote desktop' is vncviewer, does it allow multiple viewers/sessions ? or does it mirror the current display?
[07:50] <Teknine> I also am curious what a good FTP app would be, I do alot of web development so it would be great if someone could let me know of any good ones.
[07:50] <Mr_Giraffe> Actually, better question.  Does anybody have any experience with just wireless networking in general?  I can find my network, but I can't connect to it...any suggestions?
[07:50] <imbecile> anything special i need to know when switching up from beryl to compiz fusion?
[07:50] <Flannel> imbecile: #ubuntu-effects would be the best place for that
[07:50] <n30n1> darkfame: yeah i didnt fix it. where is this cache dir located
[07:50] <imbecile> oops sorry man, wrong window ;P
[07:50] <DarkFame> n30n1: /var/cache/apt
[07:51] <homerhome1> Teknine: gftp is not bad
[07:51] <n30n1> darkfame: thanks
[07:51] <Teknine> homerhome1: thanks, ill look into that.
[07:51] <pidator> when setting up samba users I run into erro "failed to modify password ntry for user josh" when using the command sudo smbpasswd -L -a josh
[07:51] <Flannel> n30n1, DarkFame, removing it from the cache won't do anything.
[07:51] <n30n1> darkfame: i was in apt-intall
[07:51] <n30n1> flannel: :o
[07:51] <eboyjr> n2diy: Alien is tricky?
[07:51] <n30n1> Flannel, tell me more
[07:51] <DarkFame> Flannel: why not?
[07:52] <adante> howdy
[07:52] <adante> how long does it normally take to install ubuntu?
[07:52] <orbisvicis> i know in some other linux i could run vncviewer:5000 to connect to another session
[07:52] <pidator> adante bout 10 mins
[07:52] <Flannel> n30n1: All the cache is is a local... well, cache, of packages.  Theyre already installed and everything.  You can clear your cache with `apt-get clean`
[07:52] <ignignokt00> takes me like 20 minutes on a decent machine including all config
[07:52] <Flannel> adante: depends on your hardware
[07:52] <n30n1> darkfame: can i just delete everything under the cache/apt dir?
[07:52] <KurtKraut> adante, 40min in a 2gHz machine with 256mb RAM
[07:52] <adante> hm, i'm installing in a virtual pc, it's been at it for like an hour now and at 57%
[07:52] <n2diy> eboyjr:  no, I've had no problems with it. The problem is the GUI interface may NOT be ready for prime time.
[07:52] <DarkFame> n30n1: yeah, but then you just use apt-get clean
[07:52] <Flannel> n30n1: just `sudo apt-get clean`
[07:53] <ignignokt00> virtual pc will take forever
[07:53] <ignignokt00> well, a lot longer
[07:53] <KurtKraut> adante, virtual machine are much slower than real ones.
[07:53] <febri-ns> surabaya
[07:53] <DarkFame> virtual PC sucks
[07:53] <DarkFame> vmware is much better
[07:53] <n30n1> well that worked out nicely
[07:53] <Ayabara> I have a dual monitor setup. Is there a hotkey for moving focus from one screen to the other?
[07:53] <gat-man> Flannel: I installed the bar, how do I launch it now?
[07:53] <n30n1> flannel: problem not resolved as you predicted
[07:53] <DarkFame> n30n1: did you delete the helix*.deb file or all files?
[07:54] <eboyjr> n2diy: Okay, I'll take your advice. <@!@>
[07:54] <n30n1> darkfame: I just did the apt-get clean command
[07:54] <n30n1> with sudo
[07:54] <pidator> ;l
[07:54] <Flannel> gat-man: I have no idea.  `avant-window-navigator` is what that website says.
[07:54] <orbisvicis> is xdmcp suitable for internet, or only lan ?
[07:54] <ignignokt00> it is 'avant-window-navigator'
[07:54] <DarkFame> n30n1: ok, it resolved the problem?
[07:54] <Flannel> orbisvicis: it uses UDP, so no.  You'll need to tunnel X through ssh.
[07:55] <n30n1> darkfame: no
[07:55] <brad016> I just downloaded Filezilla which we all know is a FTP client, but were do I get the ip addres and stuff
[07:55] <Teknine> Alright frostwire seems to be installed, but what is the default folder so i can create a launcher for it, where do apps install?
[07:55] <DarkFame> what does it say now?
[07:55] <n2diy> eboyjr:  you'll find 99.9% of your command line stuff works, the GUI interfaces to them, are a work in progresss. GL.
[07:55] <Flannel> brad016: from your FTP host, you can use a hostname as well, not just an Ip
[07:55] <ignignokt00> brad: your hosting provider or whatever would give it to you
[07:55] <reed026> Darkness: I used the WinNT CD to delete the Ubuntu partions however when I go to load up NT the grub screen comes up
[07:55] <pidator> when setting up samba users I run into erro "failed to modify password ntry for user josh" when using the command sudo smbpasswd -L -a josh
[07:55] <DarkFame> n30n1: what does apt-get say now?
[07:55] <nj786> is there a new update on ubuntu yet?
[07:56] <eboyjr> n2diy: What about the launcher opening the Terminal and running the command??
[07:56] <pidator> nj786 no
[07:56] <Flannel> !away > hilltop
[07:56] <n2diy> eboyjr: it should work from a terminal.
[07:57] <DarkFame> n30n1: I think apt-get clean only cleans up installed packages in archive.
[07:57] <febri-ns> bcccm
[07:57] <eboyjr> n2diy: Will this work: "gnome-terminal sudo alien -i $1"
[07:58] <pidator> !away > pidator
[07:58] <pidator> when setting up samba users I run into erro "failed to modify password ntry for user josh" when using the command sudo smbpasswd -L -a josh
[07:58] <brad016> FTP used for storing Files on the internet? or have I missed something?
[07:58] <n30n1> darkfame: sorry i got an IM
[07:58] <poon> Hello, anyone know where the python 2.5 examples are located in the file system??
[07:59] <ignignokt00> FTP: lol "the internet" means a server somewhere which you presumably pay for access to
[07:59] <n30n1> darkfame: im getting the same error output as before
[07:59] <n2diy> eboyjr: nope, sudo alien, file name/newfillename, or something like that. Havent' played with alien for a long time.
[07:59] <DarkFame> n30n1: I think apt-get clean only cleans up installed packages in archive.
[07:59] <n30n1> darkfame: I'll try going in manally
[07:59] <DarkFame> n30n1: you have to do it manually like I first said
[07:59] <eboyjr> n2diy: Hmmm...
[07:59] <poon> anyone know where the python 2.5 examples are located on the filesystem?
[07:59] <Flannel> eboyjr: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RPM/AlienHowto
[07:59] <poon> in the file system*?
[07:59] <DarkFame> n30n1: find the /var/cache/apt/archives/helix-player_1.0.6-3_i386.deb and delete it
[07:59] <reed026> Darkfame: I used the WinNT CD to delete the Ubuntu partions however when I go to load up NT the grub screen comes up
[07:59] <brad016> ignignokt00, so if I have an FTP client i can't store files on a high bandwidth server?
[08:00] <ignignokt00> if you own or have access to the server, then yes you can
[08:00] <poon> reed026: try fixing the MBR
[08:00] <Flannel> DarkFame, n30n1: again, that won't do *anything* to change the installed system.
[08:00] <DarkFame> reed026: just use the ubuntu installer to remove the partitions.. but make /boot ext2 not ext3
[08:00] <DarkFame> and make /boot the first partition
[08:00] <poon> he has the winNT CD
[08:00] <poon> he can just fix the MBR
[08:00] <poon> replace it
[08:00] <KurtKraut> I would like to install Tribe 2 for testing in another partition. Is it possible to do that withou burning an ISO ?
[08:00] <reed026> I don't know how though?
[08:00] <DarkFame> no, he dont want WinNT
[08:00] <poon> oh
[08:01] <DarkFame> do you? :)
[08:01] <reed026> Only using WinNT to install BIOS updates
[08:01] <reed026> :)
[08:01] <brad016> so FTP is used for transering files between two computers like yours and mine over the internet like a Local Network
[08:01] <brad016> Right?
[08:01] <DarkFame> FTP - file transfer protocol
[08:01] <brad016> ya I know
[08:01] <Flannel> !install | KurtKraut
[08:01] <ubotu> KurtKraut: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[08:01] <brad016> what does that mean
[08:01] <DarkFame> n30n1: did that fix it?
[08:01] <reed026> I don't know how to fix MBR
[08:01] <Flannel> KurtKraut: also, #ubuntu+1 for Gutsy support
[08:01] <DarkFame> WinNT hack: fdisk /mbr
[08:01] <KurtKraut> Flannel, thanks for the quick answer.
[08:02] <n2diy> brad016: ftp isn't secure, use scp intead.
[08:02] <Flannel> KurtKraut: the first link (the install ones) has a bunch of non-CD methods to install.
[08:02] <n2diy> intead/instead
[08:02] <n30n1> darkfame: yes i just went in the console and rm'd it
[08:03] <DarkFame> n30n1: yep, but is apt-get happy now?
[08:03] <brad016> If FTP/SCP isn't for saveing files on the internet like box.net or something just tell me to "get an external hard drive"
[08:03] <Teknine> I created a launcher for Frostwire and am getting an error Failed to execute child process "/usr/lib/frostwire/FrostWire.jar" (Permission denied)
[08:03] <Teknine> any help please
[08:03] <sinep> Hey.
[08:03] <n30n1> darkfame: yeah i just had to run the autoremove one last time then run apt-get update
[08:03] <DarkFame> try typing apt-get moo if nothing else helps.
[08:03] <KurtKraut> Flannel, after proceeding with the install, the new system will be added to the current GRUB ?
[08:03] <adante> KurtKraut: seems to be 10-11 times slower though, which is a little extreme
[08:03] <orbisvicis> Teknine, did you make as root ?
[08:03] <adante> and i'd use vmware if i had a license
[08:04] <n30n1> darkfame: thanks for the help
[08:04] <sinep> I tried installing the nvidia legacy drivers and glx died.
[08:04] <Teknine> orbisvicis: no, sorry i just downloaded the .deb package and did a sudo apt-get install
[08:04] <KurtKraut> adante, how much RAM do you have ?
[08:04] <DarkFame> n30n1: np :)
[08:04] <brad016> 2 megs
[08:04] <brad016> i'm running the windows
[08:04] <brad016> 1st
[08:04] <Teknine> or sorry orbisvicis sudo dpkg -i FrostWire-4.10.9-2.i586.deb
[08:04] <ignignokt00> 2 megs?!
[08:05] <brad016> from 1982
[08:05] <gat-man> why doesn't anyone know about kiba-dock?
[08:05] <ignignokt00> haha awesome
[08:05] <adante> KurtKraut: 1gig, allocated 256 to the vpc
[08:05] <ignignokt00> gatman: because avant is better
[08:05] <KurtKraut> adante, and what processor ?
[08:05] <DarkFame> because kkibadok is totally useless
[08:05] <brad016> if you need a good dock you shoud use th Avant Windows Navigator
[08:05] <adante> KurtKraut: p4 3.2gh
[08:05] <KurtKraut> adante, hmm... check your hard disk health...
[08:06] <n2diy> gh?
[08:06] <KurtKraut> adante, it is taking longer as I would expect.
[08:06] <xjkx> configure: error: *** GLIB >= 1.2.2 not installed - please install first ***
[08:06] <orbisvicis> Teknine, its a debian package first which isnt best. instead see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_file_sharing_applications. Recommend azureus. Or compile
[08:06] <xjkx> Cant find glib package in apt
[08:06] <adante> KurtKraut: now that you mention it, the 'cd' is an iso on the same drive as my vpc virtual drive
[08:06] <n30n1> darkfame: when i ran the package manager it put the file back into the archieves folder
[08:06] <KurtKraut> adante, this should make things faster, not slower.
[08:06] <DarkFame> n30n1: from where?
[08:07] <n30n1> darkfame: the internet
[08:07] <n30n1> darkfame: it downloaded it again
[08:07] <DarkFame> n30n1: yeah, but now it's not broken anymore.
[08:07] <orbisvicis> Teknine, also try changing the permissions of frostwire.jar by sudo nautilus
[08:07] <DarkFame> n30n1: it broke because of a power failure, right?
[08:08] <orbisvicis> Flannel, so if i want vncserver with seperate sessions, then 'system-prefs-remote desktop' wont work, && i need vnc4server ?
[08:09] <xjkx> "configure: error: *** GLIB >= 1.2.2 not installed - please install first ***"  Cant find glib package in apt
[08:10] <orbisvicis> xjkx, libglib, & you prolly need the dev version to configure
[08:10] <Flannel> orbisvicis: I have no idea how VNC works.
[08:10] <gat-man> firebird: chicago + dialup = poor guy
[08:10] <orbisvicis> Flannel, sorry 'bout that then
[08:11] <xjkx> orbisvicis: it says libglib is installed but i cant compile xmms
[08:12] <ignignokt00> what about libglib-dev
[08:13] <reed026> DarkFame; O
[08:13] <reed026> erg
[08:13] <DarkFame> yes
[08:13] <reed026> DarkFame, I'm going to try this one more time.
[08:14] <reed026> When I set up the /boot partion do I pmake it the primary?
[08:14] <DarkFame> primary and active
[08:14] <DarkFame> boot
[08:14] <reed026> Should the /boot go to the beginning?
[08:14] <DarkFame> yes
[08:14] <DarkFame> and make it ext2
[08:14] <Yeti> !pastebucket
[08:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pastebucket - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:14] <Yeti> Can someone link me to a pastebucket please?
[08:14] <Flannel> !paste | Yeti
[08:14] <reed026> !paste
[08:14] <ubotu> Yeti: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[08:15] <Yeti> flamesrock, reed026, thanks very much, guys :)
[08:15] <firebird619> Does anyone know if the issue with compiling Intel 537EP modem drivers has been resolved?
[08:15] <reed026> Make the bootable flag on DarkFame?
[08:15] <DarkFame> yes
[08:15] <DarkFame> very important
[08:15] <orbisvicis> any reason for ubuntu to freeze after about 1 hr of screensaver ?
[08:15] <DarkFame> and as it's a old bios, make sure /boot is in the beginning
[08:16] <reed026> When I make the swap, I put it at the end?
[08:16] <DarkFame> yeah
[08:16] <reed026> And then put the main partion at the end aswell?
[08:16] <okok> Does anyone know how to install Route Book
[08:16] <reed026> or should I do it like Main HD then Swap?
[08:16] <DarkFame> but the automatically partition scheme (just choose erase all) should work perfectly too.
[08:16] <DST51598_> Question: I want to know how translation is handled in ubuntu
[08:16] <DST51598_> .
[08:17] <DarkFame> DST51598_: launchpad.net
[08:17] <orbisvicis> gat-man, what about kiba ?
[08:17] <reed026> Nah, it didn't work Darkfame, I've already tried that. It gives me the Grub 18 error
[08:17] <reed026> :)
[08:17] <DST51598_> how to I get po file for ubuntu desktop?
[08:17] <DarkFame> reed026: that's weird.
[08:17] <DarkFame> DST51598_: www.launchpad.net
[08:17] <reed026> Do I make the main HD primary or logical?
[08:17] <gat-man> orbisvicis: can you help me install it>
[08:17] <DST51598_> Thanks, DarkFame.
[08:17] <DarkFame> primary
[08:18] <DarkFame> DST51598_: translations.launchpad.net
[08:18] <reed026> do I make it bootable aswell darkfame?
[08:18] <DarkFame> no
[08:18] <DarkFame> only one partition can be bootable
[08:18] <DarkFame> and that must be set to /boot
[08:18] <orbisvicis> np see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=268645. If any errors just ask here
[08:18] <reed026> ok :)
[08:19] <orbisvicis> @ gat-man /|\
 dude what?
[08:20] <reed026> we will see if this works this time :)
[08:20] <DarkFame> reed026: it shouldn't be any problem
[08:20] <reed026> I have two HDs but no RAID set up in this machine aswell
[08:20] <reed026> should I go ahead and partition it now aswell?
[08:21] <orbisvicis> gat-man, just referring to above comment: np see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=268645. If any errors just ask here
[08:21] <gat-man> I dod
[08:21] <gat-man> did*
[08:21] <gat-man> can we talk on #kiba-dock?
[08:21] <DarkFame> reed026: I've looked up error 18 to be sure, and yes... it's due to the /boot partition not being placed at the beginning of the harddrive.
[08:22] <reed026> yes, I was getting that when I set up the HD partitions automatically. It stopped when I made a 100mb /boot partition, but then GRUB wouldn't load
[08:22] <DarkFame> reed026: are you running the latest BIOS btw?
[08:22] <navets> how can i use css to make two blocks side by side
[08:23] <Flannel> navets: You want #css
[08:23] <reed026> No, I'm not. I will download it as soon as I get to a GUI screen or figure out how to extract .exes from the commandline
[08:24] <reed026> I don't think Linux can run .exe's though, correct Darkfame?
[08:24] <DarkFame> not natively
[08:24] <DarkFame> but in  wine
[08:24] <DarkFame> but a BIOS upgrade won't work
[08:24] <DarkFame> you need to boot a floppy with DOS for example
[08:24] <ignignokt00> why not just use a windows boot cd?
[08:24] <ignignokt00> yeah
[08:24] <DarkFame> FreeDOS will work I guess
[08:25] <reed026> heh :) ok I will look into it later
[08:25] <reed026> hmm would I cd do fine as a floppy?
[08:25] <xenex> How do I make firestarter work in sessions? It's already set to "sudo firestarter" but it's not starting up when i login
[08:26] <DarkFame> xenex: system -> preferences -> sessions
[08:26] <Lekrem> xenex: sudo is for terminal, use gksu
[08:26] <DarkFame> xenex: just add it as a startup program
[08:26] <centaur5> I just installed the newest alsa and followed the instructions on the community support for sound problems but my acer still only has sound through the headphone jack and not the speakers. Any ideas?
[08:26] <xenex> Lekrem, thanks
[08:26] <DarkFame> centaur5: check alsa-mixer
[08:27] <DarkFame> centaur5: sorry, alsamixer
[08:28] <deaden> who kand*
[08:28] <centaur5> DarkFame: I turned all those up and still nothing.
[08:28] <DarkFame> soundcard?
[08:28] <eboyjr> I'm trying to install Adobe PDF Reader, but it is not working. (RPM) What is the best way to install it?
[08:28] <crdlb> !medibuntu | eboyjr
[08:28] <ubotu> eboyjr: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[08:28] <DarkFame> eboyjr: just use add/remove programs
[08:28] <kandagatla> I dont find /sbin/hotplug in by destro?
[08:29] <DarkFame> eboyjr: much easier
[08:29] <reed026> Darkfame, I could install WinNT on my other harddrive and then install the Bios Update, but could I get Grub to boot to it?
[08:29] <kandagatla> Hw does the hotplug work in ubuntu
[08:29] <kandagatla> ???
[08:29] <centaur5> DarkFame: acer 3050 with realtek alc883 but it also has something to do with HDA ATI SB
[08:29] <DarkFame> reed026: don't install WinNT, just use a floppy
[08:29] <veneboy_> hi
[08:29] <orbin> hi all.  my splash seems to have been replaced with the kubuntu one after installing kubuntu-desktop.  i've tried reconfigging and reinstalling usplash.  no go.  ideas?
[08:29] <veneboy_> anybody with a dell precission around?
[08:29] <eboyjr> crdlb;DarkFlame: thx
[08:30] <kandagatla> hi all,  I dont find /sbin/hotplug in by destro?
[08:30] <reed026> Darkfame I don't have a floppy of DOS
[08:30] <Jordan_U> !anyone | veneboy
[08:30] <ubotu> veneboy: 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?
[08:30] <veneboy_> i wanted to talk about the suspend-functionality...
[08:30] <andrewspriggs> Is there a way for me to download a .deb of ndiswrapper? I don't have the ubuntu CD, can't connect from ubuntu, but the ndiswrapper tar.gz hasn't installed fully
[08:30] <DarkFame> reed026: just download
[08:30] <J-_> I'm having a problem with SSH, I have the openssh server on the server, configured my internal IP and port 22, and can't seem to connect. any ideas?
[08:30] <Myrtti> J-_: what's the error message?
[08:30] <kandagatla> Does any body know How does the hotplug thing work in ubutu?
[08:30] <DarkFame> J-_: from the LAN or internet?
[08:31] <Jordan_U> andrewspriggs, What wireless chipset?
[08:31] <J-_> Myrtti: no route to host
[08:31] <andrewspriggs> Jordan_U: broadcom 4318
[08:31] <J-_> DarkFame: LAN
[08:31] <intelikey> { curl --version 2>&1 ; echo $? ; } | pastebin
[08:31] <intelikey> httped://ubuntu.pastebin.us/37787
[08:31] <Jordan_U> andrewspriggs, Have you tried just getting the firmware and using the native drivers?
[08:32] <intelikey> exit code 2 from a version check   that's  not right.
[08:32] <DarkFame> J-_: first of all, are you sure sshd is running?
[08:32] <Myrtti> J-_: then you've got either the wrong ip address or firewall
[08:32] <Myrtti> J-_: my Zyxel 660HW-D1 did exactly the same from wlan to lan when I didn't have its firewall settings right
[08:33] <andrewspriggs> Jordan_U, it has not been working, but on other distros I had been able to get ndiswrapper to work--I just need to be able to get a .deb of it
[08:33] <J-_> DarkFame Myrtti: okay it's working now in terminal. let me check gui now -.-
[08:33] <andrewspriggs> Jordan_U, in other words, I don't want to do bcm43xx
[08:33] <myusrn1> hey what are some good mmo's that run on linux?
[08:33] <Jordan_U> andrewspriggs, You can get NDIS wrapper from packages.ubuntu.com
[08:33] <DarkFame> myusrn1: check out garagegames
[08:33] <andrewspriggs> Jordan_U: thanks

[08:34] <lancerdragoon> Hi, I'm wondering if I can use my cellphone as a modem to connect to the internet. I'm gonna connect this phone to my computer using a USB cable. Any ideas?
[08:34] <ziroday> lancerdragoon: what phone?
[08:34] <veneboy_> dell laptop here,  runs lilke a dream, but suspend mode doesn't work . ubuntu goes to sleep and doesn't wake up. :(
[08:35] <lancerdragoon> It's a Nokia, I forget what model exactly.
[08:35] <Jordan_U> lancerdragoon, Depends on the phone
[08:35] <myusrnm> I want mmo's
[08:35] <Frogzoo> lancerdragoon: if the phone presents as a hayes modem, just pppd will do it
[08:35] <myusrnm> like massive multiplayer onlines
[08:35] <J-_> "Opening "Server" You can stop this operation by clicking cancel" it should prompt for the password automagically
[08:35] <myusrnm> i just installed linux
[08:35] <logan> Does ubuntu have an equivilent of an SMB share? I need to transfer files from one ubuntu computer to another.
[08:35] <myusrnm> and realized i can't play any games
[08:35] <lancerdragoon> I see, thank you for your help.
[08:35] <Jordan_U> veneboy, What GFX card?
[08:35] <ziroday> lancerdragoon: thats pretty experimental what you are trying to do google your model or nokia and see if anything pops up. I know you can do it with Sony Ericson Phones
[08:35] <myusrnm> and therefore, linux must suck.
[08:35] <veneboy_> nvidia quadro pro
[08:36] <myusrnm> i'm going to get vista, probably
[08:36] <lancerdragoon> SE phones can be used? Any more information on this?
[08:36] <veneboy_> jordan_u: nvidia quadro pro
[08:36] <ziroday> myusrnm: what game?
[08:36] <tulga> I deleted top panel. howto restore it?
[08:36] <DarkFame> myusrnm: go ahead, it's your choice
[08:36] <myusrnm> well i guess it is
[08:36] <DarkFame> no one forced you to install it
[08:36] <lancerdragoon> tulga: if you have another panel, right click on it and add another panel
[08:36] <ziroday> tulga: right click blank space on bottom panel and select New Panel
[08:37] <ziroday> lancerdragoon: i dont know i saw it somewhere google it
[08:37] <lancerdragoon> ziroday: Okay, thank you for your help.
[08:37] <Frogzoo> !wine | myusrnm: some doze games run well under wine
[08:37] <ubotu> myusrnm: some doze games run well under wine: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[08:37] <ziroday> lancerdragoon: np
[08:37] <logan> Short of installing an FTP server, what is the easiest way of transfering files between two networked ubuntu computers?
[08:37] <eboyjr> Why is it that on Windows, when you press the computer power-off button, it doesn't turn off right away, but in Ubuntu, when you press the power button, it shuts off right away?
[08:37] <ziroday> logan: samba
[08:38] <logan> Does it already have a samba system installed?
[08:38] <logan> Or do I have to download a new program
[08:38] <ziroday> eboyjr: because linux is better :)
[08:38] <lancerdragoon> eboyjr: That depends on you power management settings.
[08:38] <Jordan_U> eboyjr, That is a configurable setting
[08:38] <brad016> I was wondering if I should use evolution as my email client or web based, which is more secure?
[08:38] <Flannel> !nfs | logan
[08:38] <ubotu> logan: nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[08:38] <J-_> !ssh > J-_
[08:38] <ziroday> brad016: both are secure
[08:39] <eboyjr> ziroday; Ya, I know its better ;), but if you accidentally pressed the power button, you lose all your work.
[08:39] <reed026> DarkFlame, I can't seem to open my 3.5 disket drive to add the freedos iso to it
[08:39] <Flannel> logan: Samba is only if you need to cooperate with windows.  Most other OSs have plenty of better ways (NFS isone) to communicate
[08:39] <brad016> ziroday, arent programs hackable an clients like gmail secure cause its on the internet/
[08:39] <paolo_>  hi. how can i obtain "man 2 open" for example? man is actually applicable only for normal commands, but not for posix functions.... is there a package which i should download?
[08:39] <DarkFame> reed026: isn't it just a .img file? dd if=image.img of=/dev/floppy
[08:40] <reed026> it's an ISO
[08:40] <DarkFame> how big?
[08:40] <ziroday> brad016: not if you have something wacthing where you go on the internet or if you are being unknowingly routed through a proxy
[08:40] <reed026> 7mb
[08:40] <DarkFame> reed026: ok.. it's not a floppy image.
[08:40] <logan> Flannel: I don't need to cooperate with windows, this is between two ubuntu computers
[08:40] <eboyjr> lancerdragoon: when I goto the power management settings, the setting says "Ask Me". It is still just immediately shuts down.
[08:40] <brad016> ziroday, sooo
[08:40] <reed026> could I just burn it to a cd instead?
[08:41] <logan> This NFS tutorial seems overly complex
[08:41] <Shadow_mil> ubuntu feisty comes with beryl right?
[08:41] <reed026> and still be able to use it, that is
[08:41] <eboyjr> Shadow_mil: yes
[08:41] <Shadow_mil> what about kubuntu feisty?
[08:41] <lancerdragoon> Shadow_mil: No, it's compiz.
[08:41] <DarkFame> Shadow_mil: no
[08:41] <Frogzoo> logan: -> tldp.org
[08:41] <Shadow_mil> compiz....
[08:41] <veneboy_> shadow_mil: you have to get the repositories and download the packages.
[08:41] <Shadow_mil> compiz sucks compared to beryl
[08:41] <adante> so
[08:41] <DarkFame> Shadow_mil: there are several distros that come default with beryl, but ubuntu is not one of them (yet).
[08:41] <adante> does anybody know of a guide for installing ubuntu on a virtualpc
[08:41] <dts> does ubuntu support reiser4?
[08:42] <Jordan_U> Shadow_mil, Not really, they all basically have the same plugins
[08:42] <DarkFame> dts: yes
[08:42] <Flannel> logan: try this one instead: https://help.ubuntu.com/6.06/ubuntu/serverguide/C/network-file-system.html
[08:42] <lancerdragoon> Shadow_mil: Uh, no. Beryl has merged with Compiz to become Compiz Fusion. The instructions to install them are in the forums.
[08:42] <Shadow_mil> beryl is much more stable (in my experiences)
[08:42] <Jordan_U> Shadow_mil, And you can still install Beryl if you want
[08:42] <eboyjr> Jordan_U: when I goto the power management settings, the setting says "Ask Me". It is still just immediately shuts down.
[08:42] <dts> DarkFame: it's compiled in the main kernel?
[08:42] <logan> I hate how I need to manually edit files and add shit to them, and it is pretty standard stuff
[08:42] <veneboy_> shadow_mil: i got beryl working just after installing... compiz comes as an option. they did fusion the projects again, didn't they?
[08:42] <DarkFame> dts: it has nothing to do with the kernel
[08:42] <logan> Why hasn't anyone GUI'd this yet
[08:42] <n30n1> I can't seem to get a working .rm player
[08:43] <n30n1> realplayer didnt work
[08:43] <kimmey> Try mplayer
[08:43] <DarkFame> dts: you can install beryl from an unofficial source in ubuntu really easiy
[08:43] <n30n1> where do i get the .rm codec for it, i have mplayer
[08:43] <kimmey> realplayer may be a bit fucked up here to.. but maybe.. its just my configs :)
[08:43] <Jordan_U> DarkFame, You can install it from the official repositories even easier :)
[08:43] <kimmey> Uhm, I installed lots of codecs via automatix2
[08:43] <Flannel> !automatix | kimmey
[08:43] <ubotu> kimmey: 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
[08:43] <DarkFame> Jordan_U: oh, it's in there too?
[08:43] <dts> DarkFame: uhhh, beryl is graphics, reiser4 is a file system, i don't understand hte connection
[08:44] <Jordan_U> DarkFame, Yup
[08:44] <Shadow_mil> Well it does not matter, once KDE 4 comes out, compiz, beryl, and what ever else will become old and weak, and KDE 4 will ride a white horse though the land, slaying all who challenge it!   Muhahahahahaha!!!!
[08:44] <kimmey> Aha
[08:44] <DarkFame> dts: sorry, I was mixing you with someone else.
[08:44] <kimmey> acutally amsn didnt work well with automatix2
[08:44] <DarkFame> dts: yes, it's supported in the kernel.
[08:44] <tjs> I've installed an xfonts package 'xfonts-jmk' for the 'neep' font in feisty, I've restarted the machine since I've installed them (this was a few weeks ago) yet the fonts are not available
[08:44] <DarkFame> tjs: when installing fonts you only need to restart X
[08:45] <dts> DarkFame: cool, is there a way i can "test" that
[08:45] <dts> i don't want to put it on and then no t be able to read
[08:45] <DarkFame> dts: test the support?
[08:45] <dts> yea
[08:45] <DarkFame> dts: just mount the filesystem with the livecd I guess
[08:45] <tjs> DarkFame: I'm using the standard X (xorg?) but have installed xfce4
[08:45] <kimmey> Flannel: do you know what kinda plugin similair to shockwave? i was going to look at a page yesterday that req it, but when I choose to install from ff I have to do it manually, but if i try that its just errors
[08:45] <veneboy_> eh... somebody here with a dell laptop got suspend mode working? maybe?
[08:45] <tjs> DarkFame: any idea why the font would not be available anywhere?
[08:45] <DarkFame> tjs: still should work
[08:46] <Flannel> kimmey: shockwave isn't available for linux
[08:46] <kimmey> so its no way to get it working?
[08:46] <DarkFame> anyone know why shockware isn't available? lazy macromedia/adobe
[08:46] <Jordan_U> kimmey, Run FF in wine
[08:46] <febri-ns> asasxcsc
[08:46] <Flannel> kimmey: I think you might be able to get it running with wine, yes.
[08:46] <Ace_NoOne> hi - any shell gurus here? I need some help replacing whitespaces at the end of PHP files from the command line

[08:47] <Ace_NoOne> DarkFame: tried SED, FIND+GREP (to identify), REPLACE ... I'm just too much of a newbie it seems

[08:47] <Ace_NoOne> Jordan_U: I know RegEx and stuff, but I just couldn't get it to work the way I want it to
[08:47] <veneboy_> is there a laptops channel?
[08:48] <Jordan_U> veneboy_, No
[08:48] <T-Connect> nfts-3g version 1:1.328-1 seem screwup here. I download it from Synaptic Package Manager.
[08:48] <veneboy_> jordan_u: ok.
[08:48] <DarkFame> veneboy_: yes, you're in it ;P
[08:48] <T-Connect> I can't unmount
[08:48] <veneboy_> darkfame: :(
[08:48] <DarkFame> veneboy_: i'm sure you can ask your laptop questions here
[08:49] <veneboy_> T-Connect:maybe you have a terminal opened with a working directory in the volume you want to umount?
[08:49] <Ace_NoOne> so ... would anyone assist me with this sed issue?
[08:49] <Jordan_U> veneboy_, This may help: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaLaptopBinaryDriverSuspend
[08:50] <T-Connect> I had to reinstall ubuntu to get rid of it.
[08:50] <veneboy_> Jordan_U: checking it...
[08:50] <adobeman> Is there an Ubuntu theme API?
[08:50] <shiester_miester> gday everyone
[08:51] <T-Connect> I have 2 hard drives. Master and Slave. I have  Slave with ubuntu on it.
[08:51] <adante> hi, has anybody installed ubuntu 7.04 in virtual pc 2007?
[08:51] <Jordan_U> adobeman, Ubuntu uses Gnome, so you are looking for a Gnome API
[08:51] <DarkFame> adante: don't
[08:52] <kimmey> adante: Ye, if it wasnt 04
[08:52] <ignignokt00> ok, can someone help me with power management?
[08:52] <ignignokt00> screen turns off after 10 minutes or so
[08:52] <T-Connect> I can't wait on new ubuntu release.
[08:52] <adante> DarkFame: ok, any alternative suggestions?
[08:52] <DarkFame> adante: vmware if you want to run it virtually
[08:52] <Jordan_U> ignignokt00, System -> Preferences -> Power Management
[08:53] <ignignokt00> i've commented out DPMS in my xorg.conf, everything is set to always on in screen saver and power management
[08:53] <adobeman> Jordan_U: Is there a website where I can learn to create my own little themes?
[08:53] <adante> DarkFame: hm, vmware player is ok?
[08:53] <DarkFame> adante: vmware player can only use created virtual machines, not create new ones.
[08:54] <adante> DarkFame: right, i'm not familiar with vmware but is there a free solution i can use to do everything?
[08:54] <DarkFame> vmware server is free.
[08:54] <lee__> hello
[08:54] <Jordan_U> adobeman, http://developer.gnome.org/doc/tutorials/metacity/metacity-themes.html
[08:54] <adante> righto
[08:54] <kimmey> use wmware workstation if youre gonna use ubuntu as a guestos from windows (server gives bad performance ;P)
[08:55] <lee__> kismet best sniiffer for linux ubuntu ?
[08:55] <kimmey> but vmware workstation costs money
[08:55] <ignignokt00> get vmware player
[08:55] <ignignokt00> i think?
[08:55] <adobeman> Jordan_U: Cool, thanks for the link.
[08:55] <DarkFame> kimmey: I haven't tried vmware server in windows, why is the performance so bad?
[08:55] <Jordan_U> kimmey, Is that true with Ubuntu running as host and guest also?
[08:55] <wols> lee__: aircrack-ng perhaps
[08:55] <wols> !best > lee__
[08:55] <T-Connect> I wonder when ntfs-3g-1.616 will be listed on Synaptic Package Manager?
[08:56] <wols> T-Connect: with gutsy? why do you need it?
[08:56] <kimmey> DarkFame: probably cus server are made for use by monstermachines (quad core ex)
[08:56] <DarkFame> kimmey: runs like a dream on my AMD64 X2
[08:56] <kimmey> the delay made me crazy
[08:56] <T-Connect> I have non gutsy ubuntu version.
[08:56] <kimmey> Not mine
[08:56] <DarkFame> but the host is linux not windows
[08:56] <T-Connect> 7.04
[08:57] <DarkFame> delay?
[08:57] <kimmey> atleast it didnt work well in windows
[08:57] <Jordan_U> T-Connect, Why do you need that specific version of ntfs-3g?
[08:57] <kimmey> ye, about 0.5-1 sec for each typing
[08:57] <DarkFame> lol
[08:57] <DarkFame> sounds really bad
[08:57] <siimo> when will edgy be disappearing from ubuntu archive mirrors??
[08:57] <T-Connect> I have another hard drive for storage
[08:57] <DarkFame> it's not anything like that on my system
[08:57] <ignignokt00> Jordan_U: any other advice for power management?  i can't watch movies away from my computer :'
[08:57] <wols> DarkFame: support time is 18 months I think
[08:57] <TheFallenArchAng> Hello everyone
[08:57] <Jordan_U> !ntfs-3g | T-Connect
[08:57] <ubotu> T-Connect: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[08:57] <kimmey> But I made it work a bit better with a patch for x2-cpus and vmware-tools
[08:57] <ignignokt00> :'( that was supposed to be
[08:57] <Lowlande1> Anyone ever booted ubuntu with virtual med on Dell RAC? Booting ok, but can't find cd-rom for install :\
[08:57] <Flannel> siimo: A good while.  It's supported for 18 months.
[08:58] <DarkFame> wols: I think you answered the wrong guy. :P

[09:01] <veneboy_> jordan_U: restarting X...   will i come back... ????
[09:01] <ubotu> TheFallenArchAng: 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.
[09:01] <DarkFame> kimmey: why are you in XP?
[09:01] <Jordan_U> T-Connect, Why, it is ~ one paragraph?
[09:01] <Tom47> how would i install just gnome (not the whole ubuntu-desktop) ?
[09:01] <kimmey> on this machine i need it for work
[09:01] <wols> Tom47: install gnome
[09:01] <ignignokt00> sudo apt-get install gdm?
[09:01] <wols> ignignokt00: gdm is not gnome
[09:02] <kimmey> when i wanted to virtualize ubuntu, freebsd etc.. and it didnt work well
[09:02] <ignignokt00> my bad
[09:02] <TheFallenArchAng> the restriced drivers says hal is in use but when i open network mang. it shows wired network and dial up no wireless
[09:02] <ignignokt00> is there any way i can get ubuntu to tell me what mobo chipset i have?
[09:02] <Tom47> wols thats it huh ok want to do it in a server vm
[09:02] <Jordan_U> TheFallenArchAng, Is your card set to roaming mode in network-admin?
[09:02] <Polygon89> ignignokt00, you can try "sudo lshw"
[09:02] <kimmey> i worked with it a few days without any good performance (amd 64x2 3600+, 3gb, 250 sata)
[09:02] <Flannel> Tom47: gnome-core is what you want, not gnome.
[09:02] <DarkFame> kimmey: virtualize winxp
[09:02] <TheFallenArchAng> dont know i am kinda new to ubuntu
[09:03] <Jordan_U> TheFallenArchAng, Go to System -> Administration -> Networking
[09:03] <Tom47> Flannel ah ok
[09:03] <kimmey> Then ill try it vice versa later
[09:03] <assasukasse> hi all, i have a problem with a xerox workcentrer 250, when i try to print it comes out alot of white pages..
[09:03] <assasukasse> how can i do?
[09:03] <Jordan_U> TheFallenArchAng, Make sure that your wireless card is set to roaming mode
[09:03] <kimmey> Atleast xp didnt like it.. :-p
[09:03] <TheFallenArchAng> ok there
[09:03] <assasukasse> ubuntu recognize as workcenter 450 but is 250
[09:04] <T-Connect> I'm afraid that I will install that broken NTFS back.
[09:04] <TheFallenArchAng> wired connection is set to auto dhcp
[09:04] <Jordan_U> T-Connect, What broken ntfs? Do you mean a broken version of ntfs-3g? If so what problems did you have and where did you install it from?
[09:05] <kimmey> vmware server dosent suppor sound?
[09:05] <chowmeined> kimmey: it does, you need to add a sound card
[09:05] <DarkFame> kimmey: it does
[09:05] <TheFallenArchAng> jordan_u how can i set a setting that dosent exsit
[09:05] <Ace_NoOne> what could be wrong with this command: find . -name *.php -exec sed s/\?\>\s+$/\?\>/ '{}' \; (replacing whitespaces at the end of PHP files)
[09:05] <Jordan_U> kimmey, It does, you just need to add a sound card
[09:05] <T-Connect> Install it from Synaptic Package Manager
[09:05] <emman101> how do i edit my log out my ubuntu and "deep freeze" my desktop?
[09:05] <zachinglis> Hey all, tried http://pastie.caboo.se/74674  and tried http://pastie.caboo.se/74676 - any idea?
[09:05] <wols> T-Connect: broken in what way?
[09:05] <paolo_> ... "man 2" doesn't work on my ubuntu. which package should i download?
[09:05] <Jordan_U> TheFallenArchAng, So you don't see your wireless card in network-admin either?
[09:06] <TheFallenArchAng> no
[09:06] <T-Connect> unmount is broken
[09:06] <wols> paolo_: none. you didn't specify a manpage
[09:06] <Flannel> T-Connect: 'umount' not unmount
[09:06] <TheFallenArchAng> my lspci shows atheros communications  device unknown
[09:06] <wols> T-Connect: broken how?
[09:06] <wols> TheFallenArchAng: update-pciids
[09:06] <wols> TheFallenArchAng: and the madwifi driver is the proper one if the the chipname you gave us is right
[09:06] <Jordan_U> TheFallenArchAng, When you run "iwconfig" do you see an ath0?
[09:07] <TheFallenArchAng> correct
[09:07] <T-Connect> I get a red dot on the screen saying that I can't unmount with NFTS.
[09:07] <TheFallenArchAng> yes and it says no wireless device
[09:07] <siimo> T-Connect: red dot??? wtf
[09:07] <veneboy> wow... what a mess! hehe.
[09:07] <wols> TheFallenArchAng: it means a file is open on that mount
[09:07] <kimmey> DarkFame: how is gaming with xp as guest-os in ubuntu? have you tried it?
[09:07] <TheFallenArchAng> ??
[09:07] <DarkFame> kimmey: gaming in vmware!?
[09:08] <wols> T-Connect: it means a file is open on that mount or the mount was shut down unclean
[09:08] <T-Connect> There wasn't anything open
[09:08] <veneboy> video woke up... but some other things didn't.
[09:08] <veneboy> :(
[09:08] <kimmey> DarkFame: yeah! :-p
[09:08] <wols> T-Connect: how do you know?
[09:08] <DarkFame> kimmey: there is no 3d support in vmware
[09:08] <Jordan_U> T-Connect, Did you have a file browser open, or a terminal cd'd to a directory on it?
[09:08] <shrimants> on an HP DV9500t, should i install ubuntu or will it have bad functionality?
[09:08] <TheFallenArchAng> this is a fresh install and not been shutdown yet
[09:08] <veneboy> had no network connection... no icons... no sound...
[09:08] <T-Connect> I reboot it many imes.
[09:08] <veneboy> and no consoles...
[09:08] <veneboy> hehe
[09:08] <T-Connect> Nothing helps
[09:08] <wols> TheFallenArchAng: was wrong nick complete, sorry
[09:08] <TheFallenArchAng> ok
[09:08] <wols> TheFallenArchAng: as for your problem: have you installed and loaded the madwifi drivers?
[09:09] <TheFallenArchAng> yes but not this time
[09:09] <veneboy> so... i think i'm going to sleep now.
[09:09] <wols> TheFallenArchAng: that means no
[09:09] <T-Connect> Maybe NTFS is open?
[09:09] <TheFallenArchAng> i have installed and reinstalled ubuntu 4 times trying a different method each time
[09:09] <veneboy> bye.
[09:09] <wols> TheFallenArchAng: do not reinstall. ubuntu is not windows
[09:09] <Jordan_U> T-Connect, What do you mean by that?
[09:09] <ignignokt00> can i get a usb flash drive to work with a freedos boot disk
[09:09] <wols> ignignokt00: OT
[09:10] <TheFallenArchAng> like i said this is a fresh install have not even updated ubuntu yet due to the sound issues
[09:10] <emman101> wew
[09:10] <T-Connect> Could it be it confused?
[09:10] <ignignokt00> wols: what?
[09:10] <wols> T-Connect: you are confused
[09:10] <wols> ignignokt00: what you ask is OT
[09:10] <ignignokt00> oh, sorry
[09:10] <TheFallenArchAng> i had to reinstall i updated my bios i had to use windows
[09:10] <T-Connect> Well I won't put it back because it doesn't work right.
[09:11] <wols> TheFallenArchAng: that is no rason if you have a DOS based flash program. all you do is burn a bootable CD or floppy with freedos
[09:11] <wols> T-Connect: suit yourself
[09:11] <TheFallenArchAng> i know i found that out afterwords
[09:11] <Jordan_U> T-Connect, I doubt that your problems are being caused by ntfs-3g
[09:12] <T-Connect> Want me to reinstall it?
[09:12] <T-Connect> Then show you?
[09:12] <Jordan_U> T-Connect, Yes
[09:12] <wols> T-Connect: we don't want you to do anything. you want something, we don't
[09:12] <Jordan_U> T-Connect, Install ntfs-config
[09:12] <xjkx> is the word tux trademarked?
[09:12] <wols> T-Connect: all we can say is if you want read/write access to ntfs partitins, ntfs-3h it is under ubuntu
[09:12] <Jordan_U> wols, Actually I am curious :)
[09:12] <emman101> how do i edit my log out to my ubuntu and "deep freeze" my desktop?
[09:13] <wols> emman101: put it in a freezer. carefu with the powercable tho. and condensation!
[09:13] <Jordan_U> emman101, By deep freeze to you mean suspend to disk?
[09:13] <TheFallenArchAng> from many forums i have read that it works out the box have not seen that yet
[09:13] <T-Connect> Huh ubuntu already have that?
[09:13] <Frogzoo> emman101: sys -> prefs -> session "save now"
[09:14] <shrimants> intel 4965 is currently unsupported by ubuntu/linux, correct?
[09:14] <T-Connect> wols?
[09:14] <RememberPOL> What's the easiest way to find out the type of video card (if any) a machine that I'm ssh'd to has installed?
[09:14] <wols> TheFallenArchAng: stop whining. you haven't said anything constructive about your problem yet at all. maybe you should start?
[09:14] <TheFallenArchAng> like what
[09:14] <Jordan_U> wols, please try to be more polite
[09:14] <wols> TheFallenArchAng: and it's very unlikely that your problem solves on its own. if you want something to solve it for you, with you not lifting a finger: hire a conslutant
[09:15] <emman101> Frogzoo:  there is not prefs inside sys folder
[09:15] <Frogzoo> RememberPOL: lspci
[09:15] <RememberPOL> I did and there's nothing about 'ideo'
[09:15] <Frogzoo> emman101: through the gnome menu
[09:15] <T-Connect> Who the ubuntu programmers?
[09:15] <ignignokt00> what does one use to write an image to a floppy?
[09:15] <TheFallenArchAng> no i am tring to learn myself i have read many post and tried many differnt options
[09:15] <wols> T-Connect: ubuntu has (almost) no programmers
[09:15] <cyphase> isn't rhythmbox supposed to auto-install codecs like totem does?
[09:15] <RememberPOL> Frogzoo: but dmesg returns [   15.146816]  Boot video device is 0000:01:00.0
[09:15] <wols> T-Connect: the vast number of software is written by other people than ubuntu

[09:16] <wols> cyphase: it's supposed to prompt you.
[09:16] <emman101> Frogzoo: im using ubuntu
[09:16] <Frogzoo> RememberPOL: if lspci doesn't help, try lshw
[09:16] <wols> !codecs | cyphase

[09:16] <gordonjcp> morning
[09:16] <wols> RememberPOL: and what is "0000:01:00.0"? note that linux can run headless
[09:16] <gordonjcp> silly question, but is there a way to tell synaptic to ignore an upgrade?

 hold is a status flag which tells apt (or aptitude) not to automatically upgrade a package. To hold a package, 'echo pkgname hold|dpkg --set-selections' or use = in aptitude's curses interface. You can ignore a hold by using apt-get install foopkg; or by using + in aptitude's curses interface. [Note that this is *NOT* the same as packages which have been "held back"

[09:28] <T-Connect> Older version is listed.
[09:28] <xlp> in the event i want to uninstall ubuntu, i can just plug back in my winxp hdd and then later connect my linux hdd and format from winxp?
[09:28] <wols> TheFallenArchAng: the driver is not loaded
[09:28] <wols> TheFallenArchAng: or not properly. run dmesg and check
[09:29] <shiester_miester> xlp, as long as you dont mess with your hardware, yes, but you wont be able to format the ubuntu partition in winxp
[09:29] <wols> niuq: same place you installed it. synaptic can uninstall too
[09:29] <mat1980> niuq: Exec the uninstaller in netbeans-5.5/_uninstall.
[09:29] <eternalswd> xlp, as long as the winxp hdd still has it's MBR intact, then yes, but you'll have to switch the pin configuration on the linux hdd to be a slave drive

[09:29] <shiester_miester> xlp, well, not with explorer anyway, since it can't see ext3 partitions, but you could do it with a different app
[09:29] <xlp> shiester_miester, well, then i could just throw in the live cd and format the hdd from there?
[09:30] <shiester_miester> xlp, yes
[09:30] <zachinglis> wols: i have universe enabled too: http://pastie.caboo.se/74678
[09:30] <niuq> hey, i have netbeans install it, but i fuck it up some files and now it does not works, if i install it via sudo apt-get install netbeans5.5, it's going to make another installation over the existing or a new one, leaving the old one there

[09:31] <shiester_miester> xlp, what do you mean "laying around"?
[09:31] <shiester_miester> xlp, if you set the boot priority properly, it will boot from the winxp drive and not from the ubuntu one
[09:31] <eternalswd> shiester_miester, xp should detect the partition, it just won't load it as a drive.  would have to use Administrator Tools' Drive Management or whatever it's called
[09:31] <Sepero> emman101: Only you and anyone who can 'sudo' can change your desktop.
[09:31] <xlp> shiester_miester, i rather have grub off of it than still sitting on it
[09:31] <kjw75> is gutsy somewhat stable, or is it just a mess to use?

[09:31] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[09:31] <mat1980> niuq: I've told you the solution. In the install directory of netbeans there is a directory called _uninstall with an installer inside. Exec that installer.
[09:31] <zachinglis> wols: I know that much. And ?
[09:31] <wols> !ot | kjw75
[09:31] <shiester_miester> xlp, just format the drive then, that gets rid of grub, i think

[09:32] <T-Connect> Ok wols I'm on my own on NTFS. So no go.
[09:32] <wols> niuq: how did you install netbeans then?
[09:32] <shiester_miester> T-Connect, what do you mean?
[09:32] <niuq> matl1980: ok ok i'll try it now
[09:32] <eternalswd> xlp, yep reformatting will delete the MBR as well
[09:32] <T-Connect> I gave up.
[09:32] <shiester_miester> T-Connect, the ntfs drivers work perfectly, im using them myself
[09:32] <xlp> nice
[09:32] <zachinglis> wols: Why did you show me that? I know what apt is/does?
[09:32] <niuq> wols: i downloaded the files from netbeans.org
[09:32] <T-Connect> Which version?
[09:33] <askand> samba service is not started on boot..I have to do a "sudo /etc/init.d/samba start" can I fix that?
[09:33] <xlp> last noob question, where do i get all the fancy desktop managers? :D
[09:33] <shiester_miester> xlp, beryl is all you need, just google it
[09:33] <xlp> :D
[09:33] <wols> askand: ls -l /etc/rc.d/*samba*
[09:33] <wols> niuq: then ask them how to unisntall. not us
[09:33] <shiester_miester> T-Connect, im not sure which :/ if i do "ntfs-config --version" it gives me version 0.5.5
[09:34] <ignignokt00> zachinglis: apt updates nautilus automatically
[09:34] <wols> shiester_miester: dpkg -l | grep ntfs
[09:34] <ignignokt00> ..and everything else
[09:34] <eternalswd> xlp, depends on what you mean by fancy.  I prefer fluxbox myself :p
[09:34] <shiester_miester> ah ok
[09:34] <wols> zachinglis: but you don't know how to use it
[09:34] <xlp> noob proof
[09:34] <shiester_miester> T-Connect, version 1.328-1
[09:34] <zachinglis> wols: How do I not know how to use it? Postfix is having problems, maybe conflictions.
[09:35] <shiester_miester> xlp, noob proof - buy a mac
[09:35] <wols> zachinglis: you start by reading the url
[09:35] <askand> wols: Should i put samba in rc.d instead of init.d?
[09:35] <shiester_miester> linux is most certainly NOT noob-proof, lol
[09:35] <xlp> LOL
[09:35] <xlp> i was afraid of that
[09:35] <wols> zachinglis: and paste your sources.list. imho your universe repo is wrong or you don't know how to use apt
[09:35] <shiester_miester> the solution is to not be a noob
[09:35] <Flannel> xlp: #ubuntu-effects is the ubuntu channel for eyecandy, they should have tutorials/walkthroughs in the topic.
[09:36] <zachinglis> wols: Once again, I know how to use apt-get. My sources.list is fine. It's the bog standard Slicehost sources.list and is perfectly fine.
[09:36] <T-Connect> Can you unmount Sh?
[09:36] <shrimants> shiester_miester, yaeh i found out about taht the hard way
[09:36] <TheFallenArchAng> wols this is  whAT COME OUT OF DMESG  31.014995]  wifi%d: unable to attach hardware: 'Hardware revision not supported' (HAL status 13)

[09:36] <shiester_miester> heheh
[09:36] <shrimants> in windows, w/e. but in linux, BAD.
[09:37] <wols> TheFallenArchAng: pretty clear. either you follow the howto ubotu gave you about compiling madwifi or you use ndiswrapper
[09:37] <askand> wols: no samba in rc.d...
[09:37] <TheFallenArchAng> i did the step by step with madwifi i i showed you what happen with ifconfig ath0 down
[09:37] <wols> askand: ls -l /etc/rc2.d/*samba*  <- I'm an idiot who can't type
[09:38] <wols> TheFallenArchAng: and you read the error message
[09:38] <TheFallenArchAng> correct
[09:38] <askand> wols: no samba in there either :O

[09:40] <zachinglis> wols: Reading the documentation will not get me any closer to finding out what the reason behind the issues are. I suspsect it is conflictions personally. Though easily could be wrong. So how about, if you're going to hang around a support channel, that you want to help. Rather than acting like it's such a burden to help people and get off your high horse ;) and yes, you think 'helping people who don't help themselves...' bullshit,
[09:40] <zachinglis> Flannel: Thank you.
[09:40] <wols> askand: use rcconf
[09:40] <wols> zachinglis: the issue is apt cannot find the packages. since packages.ubuntu.com does, you did something wrong setting up apt with your universe repos. QeD
[09:41] <Sepero> grep is the most popular Ubuntu package around. I find that quite impressive considering most people probably don't know how to use it. :)
[09:41] <wols> zachinglis: and I told that to you time and again. if you don't want to listen: your choice. good day
[09:41] <metbsd> is there a way to turn an ide hard drive into a usb hard drive?
[09:41] <TheFallenArchAng> ok kinda of i stupid question i think i know the answer but to be sure the first command says  sudo apt-get remove --purge linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r` -----uname -r means ???
[09:41] <wols> Sepero: grep is part of base isntall. always needed :)
[09:41] <xlp> i think im going to get banned but... i like osx lol
[09:41] <wols> TheFallenArchAng: your kernel vesion
[09:42] <wols> TheFallenArchAng: your kernel version
[09:42] <askand> wols: samba is not in rcconf...
[09:42] <Sepero> wols: Yeah, but grep even beats perl :)
[09:42] <TheFallenArchAng> thx
[09:42] <T-Connect> XD
[09:42] <wols> askand: do you know what a symlink is?
[09:42] <zachinglis> wols: you never gave me any direction apart from 'read about the function', I'd of been happy to help myself with more of a clue.
[09:42] <wols> question: what Sxx does samba use in ubuntu (check /etc/rc2.d)
[09:42] <askand>  wols: know what it is but not have to make one..
[09:43] <Sepero> metbsd: You could try searching for a case that might allow you to do that.
[09:43] <wols> 09:29 < wols> zachinglis: as you can see: universe is needed 09:29 < wols> zachinglis: as you can see: universe is needed09:35 < wols> zachinglis: and paste your sources.list. imho your universe repo is wrong or you don't know how to use apt
[09:43] <zachinglis> wols: Never got those messages.
[09:43] <wols> zachinglis: if you know how to use apt, this should be all you need to check for yoursefl. in case if you don't know about apt: read the howto
[09:43] <defrysk> zachinglis, you di get those , we all did
[09:43] <wols> zachinglis: they are public in channel
[09:43] <zachinglis> (Im currently visiting my fiancs in Malaysia so on a 56k.)
[09:43] <zachinglis> defrysk: I LITERALLY didn't get those
[09:43] <Flannel> guys, drop it.  It's over and done with

[09:44] <bruenig> shouldn't it just be lagging then
[09:44] <bruenig> like shouldn't you just be about 5 minutes behind
[09:44] <shiester_miester> xlp, nvidia cards work fine
[09:44] <wols> xlp: you want to install the nvidia drivers (for 3D)
[09:44] <shiester_miester> xlp, but it won't install drivers for you
[09:44] <wols> !nvidia | xlp
[09:44] <ubotu> xlp: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto

[09:44] <bruenig> zachinglis, what happens to the packets
[09:44] <xlp> yeah, because the desktop seems sluggish lol
[09:44] <Sepero> wols: grep beat out dpkg by over 50 votes. lol
[09:45] <xlp> that wine tutorial kicked ass
[09:45] <zachinglis> bruenig: Don't ask me, I have nfc. I just know what I see.
[09:45] <wols> zachinglis: even 56k can keep up with #ubuntu, IF nothing else is running
[09:45] <zachinglis> And yet I have other things running.
[09:45] <bruenig> unless he disconnected or something
[09:45] <Sepero> xlp: What wine tutorial?
[09:45] <zachinglis> Anyway, this is a poor 56k at that.

[09:45] <ubotu> thefallenarchang: Package svn does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[09:45] <Flannel> TheFallenArchAng: you need to install subversion
[09:45] <TheFallenArchAng> directed towards wols sorry
[09:46] <zachinglis> Anyway, what's with such accusations.
[09:46] <wols> zachinglis: as bruenig said, then you are only lagged. only way to miss something is to disconnect due to excessive lag. youd didn't. now go and fix your problem
[09:46] <TheFallenArchAng> flannel how may i ask
[09:46] <Flannel> Guys, it's over and offtopic, drop it.
[09:46] <wols> J-_: nessus
[09:46] <J-_> wols: thanks
[09:46] <Flannel> TheFallenArchAng: install the package 'subversion' thorugh your favorite package manager
[09:46] <bruenig> the latency ate the packets
[09:46] <J-_> !info nessus > J-_
[09:46] <wols> TheFallenArchAng: buy installing the package ubotu just messaged you about
[09:46] <wols> J-_: simply message the bot. don't do a selftell
[09:47] <J-_> wols: selftell?
[09:47] <zachinglis> Whatever. I know what I see wols. But then again, as I have found out ... you're better than everyone else ;D Really, I have nfc what's up with everyone here. I'm a decent guy having troubles, I spend a LOT of time giving advice in my own fields and I never treat anyone the way you guys have treated me.
[09:47] <DrkCodeman> any idea when flash will be supported in 64bit version?
[09:47] <Flannel> DrkCodeman: whenever macrodobe releases a 64bit version
[09:47] <bruenig> DrkCodeman, never?
[09:47] <wols> DrkCodeman: no one does. ask adobe
[09:47] <magnetron> DrkCodeman: when gnash is ready.
[09:47] <wols> bruenig: one day they will
[09:48] <wols> magnetron: good point
[09:48] <J-_> wols: well, why flood the channel with a trigger/package I need to know about?
[09:48] <ignignokt00> zachinglis: what do you want?  have you enabled universe repos?
[09:48] <defrysk> zachinglis, /j #ubuntu-wining
[09:48] <bruenig> I doubt gnash will ever be ready
[09:48] <wols> magnetron: but seeing things like GNU java, HURD, etc: make it an "IF" :
[09:48] <DrkCodeman> im not downgrading firefox for flash ;P
[09:48] <bruenig> it will be like wine, it might get close enough to be reasonably usable, but never really that great
[09:48] <Flannel> zachinglis: did you see the issues with your sources.list and get it resolved?
[09:48] <magnetron> bruenig: why not?
[09:48] <wols> magnetron: cause flash is a moving target
[09:49] <bruenig> magnetron, because flash is evolving, by the time they caught up to 7, or pretty close to what is 7, adobe puts out 9 and so forth and so on
[09:49] <wols> magnetron: and the reason to replace is is a fringe one
[09:49] <zachinglis> Not yet, I have been trying to work out why I was treated in such a manner. It pisses me off.
[09:49] <bruenig> and 7 was the only flash for a very long time
[09:49] <waggggg> olaaaaaaa
[09:49] <ignignokt00> zachinglis: they did treat you a little bit roughly, but you were being kind of hard to help there for a while
[09:49] <wols> zachinglis: simply put: ayou accused people wrongly not telling you and you told disprovable lies. we know how irc works
[09:49] <magnetron> wols, bruenig: they already support all flash7, and now they support the flash8 of google video and youtube
[09:50] <zachinglis> wols: And I know what I see.
[09:50] <wols> zachinglis: and we know what we see. no go away with your whining. you are OT
[09:50] <bruenig> !manners | zachinglis
[09:50] <ubotu> zachinglis: The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[09:50] <wols> zachinglis: if you wanna complain about me: !ops | wols was mean to me
[09:50] <bruenig> magnetron, flash 7 was static for a very long time
[09:50] <logan> Can anyone recommend me a good music player, playlists and randomization is nice
[09:51] <bruenig> logan, exaile
[09:51] <wols> magnetron: I haven't seen anyone using gnash successfully with youtube/video yet. maybe I haven't looked hard enough
[09:51] <bruenig> !best | logan
[09:51] <ubotu> logan: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[09:51] <magnetron> wols: they would need the SVN version
[09:51] <bruenig> it will work with youtube and google video because they are both flash 7 compatible
[09:51] <Sepero> zachinglis: There are good and bad people in every community. Ubuntu and Linux communities are no exception. We don't get paid here.
[09:52] <zachinglis> The ISPs here are awfull, this is a developing country. it drops, it flatlines, it does a variety of different things. It's 56k max. Anyway, I'm tired of this so this is the last i'll say on the matter. Volunteers: Do people goto Africa, help starving kids out, then slap them around the face? I was grateful for all your help but I did not get those lines, literally. I help out on #rubyonrails for MOST of the day. I am not a help va
[09:52] <wols> !OT | zachinglis
[09:52] <ubotu> zachinglis: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:52] <xlp> hey, i got a friend who is installing ubuntu, where can he get wireless drivers for his usb card?
[09:52] <bruenig> xlp, what is the card
[09:52] <wols> xlp: depends on the card (or rather the chip inside)
[09:52] <ignignokt00> how can i format a floppy for msdos?
[09:52] <xlp> the live cd didnt see it, netgear usb wg111
[09:53] <wols> ignignokt00: mfks.fat or such
[09:53] <magnetron> !hardware | xlp
[09:53] <ubotu> xlp: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[09:53] <bruenig> zachinglis, analogy doesn't fit
[09:53] <ignignokt00> thanks
[09:54] <bruenig> !wifi | xlp
[09:54] <ubotu> xlp: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[09:54] <zachinglis> It fits perfectly. I asked for help, I responded nicely, trying to work out the problem. I got told that I was an idiot, and that I had nfc about anything, such as IRC.
[09:54] <leagris> ignignokt00, in console mkfs.msdos /dev/fd0 may be it need sudo (don't know)
[09:54] <Sepero> zachinglis: People come and go like the tide here. You might get shitty answers one hour, and great answers the next.
[09:54] <ignignokt00> i formatted it as vfat, is that not right?
[09:54] <zachinglis> And then, since I complained, I keep getting told off for suggesting that I was treated unfairly.
[09:54] <zachinglis> I don't see why this community has to be a rude one?
[09:55] <HowardTheCoward> zachinglis: because it is a big one
[09:55] <ignignokt00> again, it's not a rude community, but you may think 2 people in here are rude
[09:55] <wols> !ot | zachinglis
[09:55] <ubotu> zachinglis: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:55] <defrysk> zachinglis, please leave and see a therapist
[09:55] <xlp> i just installed ubuntu 7.04, do i have feisty and what is feisty?
[09:55] <bruenig> zachinglis, the africa analogy doesn't fit. If you go to africa, you have by traveling there already committed to helping. By sitting in this channel there is no commitment to help. And so if someone is complaining or crying, it is not like helping and then slapping in the face, it is just not helping
[09:55] <leagris> ignignokt00, vfat or msdos, quite same for e floppy. Vfat refer to FAT32 and long names support both needed on large devices
[09:55] <ignignokt00> right
[09:55] <ignignokt00> mkfs.msdos gives me back "failed whilst writing FAT"
[09:56] <wols> xlp: yes you do. feisty is the "name", codename actually of this version
[09:56] <zachinglis> bruenig: It is an unwritten rule, that the IRC channels are generally for giving help and receiving help when you need it. especially the people whi SIT in the channel. I keep getting told that this is not an off-topic channel.
[09:56] <leagris> ignignokt00, it may be feseable in gnome. Right click on the disk icon ore some graphical tool
[09:56] <Sepero> xlp: Yes, feisty is version 7.04
[09:56] <Sepero> xlp: Dapper is version 6.06
[09:56] <bruenig> !manners | zachinglis I already fired this one off I believe
[09:56] <ubotu> zachinglis I already fired this one off I believe: The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[09:56] <wols> xlp: gives the version a more "human" face. kinda like windows XP isn't called 5.1 but "XP"
[09:56] <Sepero> xlp: Gutsy is going to be 7.10
[09:56] <illusin1> How can I make the ubuntu update manager just download/install updates automatically instead of prompting me?
[09:56] <ignignokt00> leagris: what may be feasible? i just want to be able to write a freedos boot floppy that works, so will vfat/fat32 work for that?
[09:56] <zachinglis> I don't believe I am behaving badly right now? How am I? I suggested the value of being rude, but that's about it?
[09:56] <bruenig> illusin1, write a cronjob
[09:57] <Flannel> wols: actually no, 7.04 is the official name once it's released.  Feisty was a codename during development, not a nickname.
[09:57] <wols> zachinglis: you are since you are OT
[09:57] <ignignokt00> azchinglis: OT OT OT
[09:57] <HowardTheCoward> ignignokt00: the filesystem on floppies is fat12 iirc
[09:57] <alesan> hi do you have an idea what is the correct procedure to transfer a thunderbird account to a new computer?
[09:57] <illusin1> bruenig: how might this cron job work?
[09:57] <tbtroja> zachinglis, you're off-topic and being rather annoying.
[09:57] <alesan> I saved the .thunderbird directory, now what?
[09:57] <Flannel> alesan: export it, then import.
[09:57] <xlp> so the database says it works with my friends usb wifi card but doesnt support wep
[09:57] <xlp> so, he is SOL?
[09:57] <Sepero> zachinglis: Please repeat your problem.
[09:57] <bruenig> illusin1, I believe if you did something like this: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y upgrade it would allow for an unattended upgrade
[09:57] <ignignokt00> howardthecoward: so what do you recommend i do to format a floppy for msdos?
[09:57] <defrysk> Sepero, zachinglis IS the problem ;p
[09:58] <bruenig> illusin1, so you write a cronjob to run that once a day or so and you are good to go
[09:58] <zachinglis> defrysk: Mature ;)
[09:58] <leagris> ignignokt00, I used freedos ready made boot floppy images, mounted them as loop and added some bios flash tools i needed, then unmounted the loop device then dumped it to a floppy using dd
[09:58] <illusin1> bruenig: brilliant, thanks :D
[09:58] <wols> Sepero: he's been helped a long time ago. but he'd rather whine about his treatment. please don't feed him
[09:58] <wols> !ops | can you tell zachinglis to go to #ubuntu-ofttopic or shut up please?
[09:58] <ubotu> can you tell zachinglis to go to #ubuntu-ofttopic or shut up please?: Help! Mez, LjL, elkbuntu, imbrandon, DBO, gnomefreak, Hobbsee, rob, ompaul, Madpilot, Burgundavia, Seveas, CarlK, crimsun, ajmitch, tritium, Nalioth, thoreauputic, apokryphos, tonyyarusso, PriceChild, Amaranth, jrib, jenda, nixternal, Myrtti or mneptok
[09:58] <ignignokt00> leagris: that's exactly what i want, if you could just clarify the dumping to a floppy using dd
[09:58] <Myrtti> wha
[09:59] <elkbuntu> zachinglis, please behave.
[09:59] <T-Connect> ubotu is a person?
[09:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about is a person? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:59] <leagris> ignignokt00, dd if=floppyimagefile.img of=/dev/fd0 is for dumping the image file to the floppy
[09:59] <wols> T-Connect: it's a help bot
[09:59] <T-Connect> Ok
[09:59] <wols> ignignokt00: and that dumping already formats it
[09:59] <amanda99999999> joint #polska
[09:59] <amanda99999999> join #polska
[09:59] <zachinglis> Ok, I'm gonna leave as over-talking the situation apparently won't help. But a tip for you guys. In the IRC channels I'm in, we're generally not rude shits for asking for help on a help channel. It makes the community nicer, the developers want to help more. But yes, I know I should leave, for being upset that wols is a dick. Really, I can't see the issue about complaining somoene was a dick to me. but whatever.
[09:59] <Sepero> ubotu: Did you program your bot?
[09:59] <leagris> ignignokt00, don't forget to unmount the loop device if you mounted the miage for modifications
[10:00] <druk> Hola, haber tengo un problema con mi impresora que va por red local lexmark x1500 que usa el driver en windows de la x1100 pero es que ese driver no esta disponible que puedo hacer???
[10:00] <T-Connect> What happen? The screen blink.
[10:00] <Flannel> !es | druk
[10:00] <ubotu> druk: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[10:00] <wols> Sepero: ubotu's "father" is either dpkg or it's a customized blootbot
[10:00] <ignignokt00> leagris: don't i need to have this formatted correctly before i write the freedos image to it?
[10:01] <Sepero> ubotu: I think there is a bug in your code. Sometimes it doesn't post anything when given a direct command.
[10:01] <leagris> ignignokt00, the image is a block copy. So no need to format a filesystem because the filesystem is already within the image
[10:01] <wols> Sepero: dpkg being the bot of that name in #debian
[10:01] <ignignokt00> leagris: ah.  thanks
[10:01] <Sepero> wols: gotcha
[10:02] <Noor> nas
[10:02] <shiester_miester> Sepero, ubotu is a BOT, not a person, you cant talk to him, at all, ever
[10:02] <T-Connect> XD
[10:02] <shiester_miester> there is nobody reading things on his end
[10:02] <bruno_> Riddell: ping
[10:02] <Sepero> ?
[10:03] <xlp> !wine
[10:03] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[10:03] <shiester_miester> giving advice to ubotu is pointless, its like talking to a car and pointing out that its engine isnt working
[10:03] <bruenig> shiester_miester, when he is talking to the bot and referring to his code, I think he knows it is a bot
[10:03] <T-Connect> Bot that does nothing but list or ban.
[10:03] <metbsd> what's best file system for usb HD?
[10:03] <leagris> ignignokt00, if you have memories of the old times where format meant low level formatting, delimiting blocs, sectors and cylinders on a floppy. Nowadays, it is all handled by the floppy device itsef. Each time you write some track or block to disk it perform a low level format automatically.
[10:03] <metbsd> anhyone knwo?
[10:03] <shiester_miester> T-Connect, it also gives helpful advice
[10:03] <bruenig> metbsd, fat32
[10:03] <Sepero> shiester_miester: This line didn't look very bot-ish: ubotu can you tell zachinglis to go to #ubuntu-ofttopic or shut up please?
[10:03] <T-Connect> Yea that too.
[10:03] <metbsd> bruenig, does it allow 5G file?
[10:04] <leagris> ignignokt00, so now, formatting mostly mean, building the filesystem structure.
[10:04] <mat1980> metbsd, it depends on your needs
[10:04] <bruenig> metbsd, don't think so, if you want a dedicated usb drive that just runs linux, then ext3
[10:04] <ignignokt00> leagris: i don't have memories of the old days, haha, i just frankly never need to use floppies so i've no idea how to work with them
[10:04] <T-Connect> What is swap?
[10:04] <bruenig> metbsd, but if you want to be able to plug it into windows machines, fat32
[10:04] <Flannel> !swap | T-Connect
[10:04] <ubotu> T-Connect: 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
[10:04] <metbsd> bruenig, but .. i have windows and bsd system that needs to access this usb
[10:05] <wols> Sepero: I said !ops | <text>
[10:05] <T-Connect> Ok I see. Thanks.
[10:05] <shiester_miester> metbsd, then use fat32
[10:05] <niuq> hi i just installed netbeans.5.5 with sudo apt-get install netbeans-5_5-linux.bin
[10:05] <T-Connect> It would be nice to have XP swap.
[10:05] <bruenig> metbsd, fat32 then, either that or install drivers so that windows can see it, or install ntfs-3g so your *nix machines can
[10:05] <T-Connect> XD
[10:05] <shiester_miester> T-Connect, XP does have swap
[10:05] <Sepero> wols: Gotcha
[10:05] <niuq> but at the end says that i had to install netbean's ide
[10:05] <leagris> ignignokt00, bewae with the DOS flash tools. Sometimes they can mangle make your bios invalid. I had to order a new chip online for may SN25P Shuttle
[10:05] <bruenig> I don't know if bsd works with ntfs-3g
[10:05] <Hobbsee> wols: how about you be nice to people?
[10:05] <shiester_miester> T-Connect, pretty much every OS that is usable has to have swap or it won't work properly
[10:05] <niuq> i tried, but i cant, this appears
[10:05] <mkuzu> hello
[10:05] <T-Connect> Ok
[10:06] <niuq>  No Java Development Kit(JDK) was found on this system.
[10:06] <mkuzu> can you advice me a channel for pppoe problems on ubuntu
[10:06] <tbtroja> niuq, so install a JDK?
[10:06] <niuq> tbtroja: already did
[10:06] <shiester_miester> T-Connect, you can configure the amount of swap space in windows in the "my computer" settings somewhere, i think
[10:07] <metbsd> but i have file size over 5G, can i still use fat32?
[10:07] <shiester_miester> metbsd, nope
[10:07] <wols> Hobbsee: you can do the same what was done with zachinglis or whatever you want. as you know I am not here for getting help. also I didn't call him a dick ro similar
[10:07] <mariarosasfm> sheila
[10:07] <mat1980> T-Connect: XP already swap, but keeps it swap in a file, not in a partition
[10:07] <shiester_miester> metbsd, use an NTFS partition, both windows and linux can read/write to those
[10:07] <metbsd> but i have bsd and linux system to write to hd, can i still use ntfs?
[10:07] <metbsd> ext3?
[10:07] <bruenig> shiester_miester, ntfs cannot be natively written by linux
[10:07] <metbsd> can windows access ext3?
[10:07] <wols> mat1980: linux can do that too
[10:07] <tbtroja> niuq, is netbeans multiverse/restricted?
[10:07] <mariarosasfm> ola
[10:07] <shiester_miester> bruenig, i didnt say natively ;)
[10:08] <bruenig> metbsd, you need to install drivers for windows to access ext3
[10:08] <niuq> tbtroja: not sure what it means that
[10:08] <wols> metbsd: yes. but it's OT
[10:08] <bruenig> shiester_miester, well both windows and linux can rw ext3
[10:08] <metbsd> OT?
[10:08] <shiester_miester> really? i didnt know that
[10:08] <tbtroja> niuq, what sources do you have enabled?
[10:08] <shiester_miester> well...the more you know
[10:08] <Hobbsee> wols: that's great, but try helping without a RTFM, etc, attitude.
[10:08] <mat1980> wols: I know.
[10:08] <leagris> shiester_miester, there are cases you can work without swap at oll. And its ok in Linux and the Microsoft os as well. Either you have enough RAM. I barely never use swap with 2GB RAM for a normal desktop use. Embeded systems based on Linux hav no swap at all. But, with no swap, as soon as you get out of RAM space, It may crash.
[10:08] <bruenig> I didn't say natively ;)
[10:08] <MacDrunk> hello all
[10:08] <bruenig> look how clever I am
[10:08] <MacDrunk> any one here uses nextel ???
[10:08] <MacDrunk> need some info
[10:08] <niuq> tbtroja: do you mean what i've installed ?
[10:08] <metbsd> can ext3 hold 5G file?
[10:08] <xlp> so is cedega/transgaming better than wine?
[10:08] <shiester_miester> leagris, i was referring to general usability of an OS by average people around the world ;) try doing that without swap
[10:08] <bruenig> metbsd, yes
[10:08] <xlp> for games that is
[10:09] <bruenig> xlp, yes
[10:09] <insmod> metbsd>yes
[10:09] <wols> metbsd: yes. en.wikipedia.org and search for ext3. it shows you various limits
[10:09] <metbsd> can winxp rw ext3?
[10:09] <shiester_miester> leagris, obviously its physically possible, but impractical for general use
[10:09] <wols> metbsd: you are reapeating yourself and you are OT
[10:09] <shiester_miester> metbsd, apparently yes
[10:09] <bruenig> metbsd, you have to install fs-driver.org for windows to rw ext3
[10:09] <metbsd> i've no access to wthat page
[10:09] <Myrtti> metbsd: yes, but with some limitations
[10:09] <metbsd> ok
[10:09] <insmod> metbsd>of course why would it not
[10:09] <tulga> howto install windows fonts?
[10:09] <bruenig> tulga, msttcorefonts
[10:10] <tulga> thanks
[10:10] <mat1980> !fonts
[10:10] <ubotu> Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[10:10] <wols> tulga: install msttcorefonts
[10:10] <shiester_miester> wols, ease up a little on the OT, im not saying its ok to flood the channel with random crap but give people a bit of room to discuss things relevant to their problem
[10:10] <metbsd> can bsd system rw ext3?
[10:10] <shiester_miester> metbsd, yes
[10:10] <wols> shiester_miester: he was answered that question already. no need to repeat it
[10:10] <tbtroja> niuq, I'm pretty sure that netbeans is proprietary software, I can't help you out, but maybe someone else can
[10:10] <leagris> shiester_miester, it's true. In that concern, Linux has a more efficient approch in having swap space on a block device partition instead of on a file. Though Linux can swap on a file if realy needed.
[10:10] <metbsd> it looks like ext3 is the file system for me
[10:10] <metbsd> will ext3 faster than ntfs?
[10:11] <insmod> metbsd> are you an idiot or a troll?
[10:11] <metbsd> also, how do i format ext3 in windows
[10:11] <wols> metbsd: you won't notice
[10:11] <shiester_miester> metbsd, if you are after speed, dont use a USB stick ;) get a portable hdd
[10:11] <shiester_miester> insmod, dont be a nazi
[10:11] <shiester_miester> hes asking a valid question
[10:11] <niuq> tbtroja: ok, thank you
[10:11] <shiester_miester> jeez, you guys are snarky tonight
[10:11] <elkbuntu> shiester_miester, dont use that word

[10:11] <xlp> hey, i got two harddrives on raid0 with winxp on them, can i boot up my comp with those two raided hdd's not plugged in (going to install ubuntu on a different hdd) then later unplug the nix hdd and plug the raid hdd's back in and the raid should work?
[10:11] <metbsd> i have old ide hard drive that i want to use as usb drive
 what an american lol
[10:12] <shiester_miester> err...im not american
[10:12] <metbsd> but i have netbsd, windows, and linux
[10:12] <niuq> any help installing netbeans?
[10:12] <shiester_miester> what makes you assume that people are from the US?
[10:12] <metbsd> so i'm looking for a compatible file system
[10:12] <tulga> am I must restart?
[10:12] <metbsd> and i have files over 5G size
[10:12] <ignignokt00> ext3?
[10:12] <metbsd> so fat32 is out
 no but a nazi is lol
[10:12] <Flannel> niuq: netbeans is in the repositories, in multiverse.  Just install the package.
[10:12] <stefg> xlp: probably not. you need a bootloader to be able to switch between Os's
[10:12] <shiester_miester> nazis arent american either...
[10:12] <tulga> bruenig: am I must restart after install font?
[10:13] <mat1980> niuq: what's the problem? Have you uninstalled netbeans?
[10:13] <niuq> Flannel: i tried netbeans5.5    but this appeared at the end
[10:13] <leagris> metbsd, ther is a est2 filesystem service for windows. Search the web. It's free. This service maykes you able to read write to ext2/ext3 partitions. But as it is very different os and security approch. Writing files from windows it will not be aware of users from Linux. So files will be written as root or predefined UID. Same problem in writing files from Linux to an NTFS partition.
[10:13] <shiester_miester> thx
[10:13] <niuq> matl1980: i could not
[10:13] <Hobbsee> is there anyone else who does not wish to behave, and stay on topic, and not act as an op?
[10:13] <bruenig> tulga, no
[10:13] <T-Connect> Reboot
[10:13] <Hobbsee> when they are not one?
[10:13] <Flannel> tulga: nothing in linux requires a restart except kernel upgrades.  And even that can happen at your leisure.
[10:13] <mat1980> niuq: why?
[10:13] <insmod> :)
[10:13] <tulga> corefonts installed well, but cannot see fonts
[10:13] <niuq> matl1980: now i cant make it work, im trying to install it but there are problems
[10:13] <tulga> in fonts box
[10:14] <yousefm87> Can someone help me? my sound isn't working, here is my alsa-info.sh script info
[10:14] <yousefm87> http://pastebin.ca/595002
[10:14] <leagris> tulga, sudo fc-cache rebuild may help
[10:14] <niuq> matl1980: well ubuntu thinks it is not install it.. or something like it
[10:14] <stefg> tulga: sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig
[10:14] <insmod> Hobbsee: f u
[10:14] <tulga> thanks
[10:15] <shiester_miester> insmod, u probably want to not speak to an OP like that

[10:15] <krinns> hi all
[10:15] <shiester_miester> lmao
[10:15] <krinns> i have install 3ware raid with 2 sata disks
[10:15] <Hobbsee> seriously, what are people *on* tonight?
[10:15] <shiester_miester> oh well, at least i have the common sense to take the hunt
[10:15] <mat1980> niuq: obviously, as you installed it directly with the netbeans installer. have you tried the uninstaller of netbeans as I suggested?
[10:15] <shiester_miester> *hint
[10:15] <niuq> Flannel: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27731/
[10:15] <krinns> n installed ubuntu
[10:15] <krinns> all good
[10:15] <shiester_miester> Hobbsee, im not sure
[10:15] <yousefm87> http://pastebin.ca/595002
[10:15] <krinns> but suddenly my pc gets restart
[10:15] <Hobbsee> shiester_miester: some form of strong crack, i think
[10:15] <Flannel> Hobbsee: I think it's the heat.
[10:16] <shiester_miester> but they seem to be generally angry for some reason
[10:16] <yousefm87> can anyone help me?
[10:16] <krinns> now my raid configuratio shows me one disk degraded i rebuid raid n start ubuntu
[10:16] <shiester_miester> yousefm87, maybe
[10:16] <Flannel> niuq: oh, how... odd.
[10:16] <tulga> someone here use Asus laptop?
[10:16] <Hobbsee> shiester_miester: woulda thought it was kind of obvious not to pick a fight with an op, to say the least...
[10:16] <krinns> afeter 1 hr i reboot my machine again it says degraded raid
[10:16] <krinns> why
[10:16] <krinns> any idea
[10:16] <shiester_miester> Hobbsee, you would be surprised what some people think of as 'obvious'
[10:16] <Hobbsee> shiester_miester: seeing as the op tends to hold everyone's access to the channel in their hands :P
[10:16] <Hobbsee> true that
[10:16] <niuq> mat1980: not sure.... sorry i just thought i could reinstall it without problems, but now i dont know what is happening
[10:17] <tulga> I cannot control Asus A6Va CPU. please suggest me any software?
[10:17] <shiester_miester> was there any solution to the pppoe problem posed earlier?  id really like to use my adsl modem through usb with ppoe...
[10:17] <stefg> krinns: hardware trouble?
[10:17] <Seeker`> hmm. My volume level keeps on fluctuating - any suggestions?
[10:17] <krinns> no
[10:17] <mat1980> niuq: well... give me the output of locate _uninstall
[10:17] <niuq> Flannel: then i tried to install that package and when i run it appears JDK IS NOT FOUND
[10:17] <krinns> it works perfect
[10:17] <krinns> i wont reinstall
[10:18] <shiester_miester> at the moment i just have to plug it in to the ethernet port, but I'd rather use that port for a LAN
[10:18] <niuq> Flannel: then i install jdk, and try again and the same
[10:18] <niuq> mat1980: ok ok
[10:18] <shiester_miester> if my calculations are correct, getting a pppoe driver to work will enable me to use it through a usb port
[10:18] <niuq> mat1980: i put that in terminal? _uninstall netbeans5.5
[10:18] <niuq> mat1980: well i have no idea
[10:18] <shiester_miester> but it seems that such a feat has never been accomplished in the history of the universe
[10:19] <mat1980> niuq: sorry, typed enter too quickly. No, type in a terminal "locate uninstaller" and give me the output
[10:19] <shiester_miester> niuq, you could always try a different IDE...there are plenty of alternatives to netbeans
[10:19] <shiester_miester> although im aware that this is both OT and not helping your problem, so i won't comment further
[10:19] <yousefm87> Can someone help me? My sound isn't working although it can recognize my card, my alsa-info is on http://pastebin.ca/595002
[10:20] <shiester_miester> yousefm87, did you ask for help in #alsa
[10:20] <niuq> shiester_miester: yeah i know there is eclipse, but im used to netbeans
[10:20] <yousefm87> yeah noone responds to me
[10:20] <shiester_miester> yousefm87, wait until someone responds, try again tomorrow maybe

[10:20] <knotgifted> is there a way to have terminal (or tilda) automatically add the '&' after programs?
[10:21] <shiester_miester> knotgifted, there is but you won't want to do it
[10:21] <knotgifted> i.e. firefox & or abiword <file here> &
[10:21] <knotgifted> oh
[10:21] <knotgifted> i guess i'll take your word for it.
[10:21] <shiester_miester> what you meant is "is there an EASY way ..."
[10:21] <niuq> mat1980: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27733/
[10:21] <knotgifted> oh
[10:21] <knotgifted> lol
[10:21] <ignignokt00> leagris: can you walk me through mounting the freedos image as a loop, adding files, and unmounting?
[10:21] <stefg> knotgifted: that would be quite stupid. if you look for a way to detach the terminal read !screen
[10:21] <shiester_miester> and there is not that I'm aware of
[10:22] <Flannel> knotgifted: well, it means you'll never really be able to use a terminal again.
[10:22] <knotgifted> thanks for the advice.
[10:22] <shiester_miester> not necessarily, he could write an app that parses terminal in/output and automatically adds the & in the right spot :P
[10:22] <MacDrunk> hello
[10:22] <alesan> what is the latest version of thunderbird in the repositories?
[10:22] <knotgifted> stfg, flannel, and shiester_miester.
[10:22] <MacDrunk> no help
[10:22] <shiester_miester> or he could re-write the code for the terminal himself
[10:23] <alesan> I just installed it but I still have v1.5
[10:23] <shiester_miester> stfg?  i havent heard that before
[10:23] <knotgifted> or i could not.
[10:23] <stefg> !screen
[10:23] <shiester_miester> did you mean to type "stfu"?
[10:23] <ubotu> screen is a terminal multiplexer. See http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2004/3/9/16838/14935 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen
[10:23] <knotgifted> *stefg
[10:23] <mat1980> niuq: ok, then just type the command /home/zero/Programs/netbeans-5.5/_uninst/uninstaller in the terminal, and the uninstaller should start
[10:23] <knotgifted> my apologies
[10:23] <knotgifted> nono
[10:23] <Flannel> knotgifted: if you want to do it after the fact, ctrl-Z, and then use 'bg %' (where % is the job number) to send it to the background
[10:23] <shiester_miester> ah
[10:23] <tbtroja> alesan: sudo apt-cache show mozilla-thunderbird

[10:23] <ignignokt00> haha
[10:23] <Flannel> alesan: 1.5 is the one in the repositories.  Because 2.0 was released too late for feisty
[10:23] <niuq> mat1980: ok
[10:24] <mardicas> mkay
[10:24] <shiester_miester> Sepero, it would be a good idea to read a word in context with the other words around it
[10:24] <ignignokt00> how do i mount/unmount a floppy image file in a loop?
[10:24] <alesan> Flannel, ok but I thought repositories could be updated then
[10:24] <knotgifted> Flannel: that helps plenty. i'll be making use of that :)
[10:24] <niuq> mat1980: this appeared :
[10:24] <niuq>                                          No Java Development Kit(JDK) was found on this system.
[10:24] <symtab> hi
[10:24] <mardicas> install JDK
[10:24] <knotgifted> i think that is all i needed for now. thanks guys/girls.
[10:24] <Sepero> shiester_miester: I wasn't directing that at anyone. I was just curious what ubotu had to say about it. :)
[10:24] <Flannel> knotgifted: 'fg' will bring it back to the foreground, and 'jobs' will display a listing of the jobs on the terminal.
[10:24] <shiester_miester> oh ok
[10:25] <mardicas> Synaptic -> search JDK
[10:25] <symtab> anyone that knows a link where i can read about the next ubuntu release?
[10:25] <stefg> ignignokt00: mount -o loop floopy.img (filetype should be recognized automagically)
[10:25] <sidlet> There is a nvidia GLX update for me, if i download it, will it auto replace what i'm using and when i restart my X server will it be using the new "modules" or will i have to run nvidia-glx-config enable again?

[10:25] <b3t0> hello
[10:25] <b3t0> i got a problem
[10:25] <niuq> mardicas: i am actually uninstalling netbeans, why should it ask for jdk ?
[10:25] <stefg> ignignokt00: mount -o loop floppy.img /mnt (filetype should be recognized automagically)
[10:25] <mardicas> sidlet: it will work
[10:25] <niuq> mat1980: any idea?
[10:25] <sidlet> mardicas, alll out of the box, right?
[10:25] <b3t0> i just got the ubuntu live cd, the 64-bit i think
[10:25] <mardicas> sidlet: should be
[10:25] <b3t0> and it wont work on my laptop
[10:25] <Flannel> alesan: No, repositories are more or less frozen per each release.  Except for bugfixes/security updates.  Gutsy will have TB2.0
[10:26] <tbtroja> b3t0, is your laptop a 64bit?
[10:26] <mardicas> if i remember correctly then the -config option jsut changes ur xorg.xconf
[10:26] <alesan> Flannel, :(
[10:26] <b3t0> i dont know
[10:26] <mardicas> but the module names are the same after the update
[10:26] <tbtroja> b3t0, what processor does your laptop have?
[10:26] <b3t0> i got vista on it
[10:26] <mardicas> so there shouldn't be a problem
[10:26] <c_> How do you install fonts?
[10:26] <sidlet> thats what i was wanting to know :)
[10:26] <Flannel> alesan: it provides for a better experience ;)  You can backport the one from gutsy if youd like.  There are automated tools to do it too.
[10:26] <Flannel> !prevu | alesan

[10:26] <sidlet> thanks mardicas
[10:26] <b3t0> its n amd turion64
[10:26] <mat1980> niuq: I guess you should have jdk installed. Let me do a search.
[10:26] <niuq> mat1980: so it is not actually installed?
[10:27] <leagris> ignignokt00, then sudo cp /path/whateverfiles /media/loop  When finished sudo umount /media/loop; sudo dd if=/path/freedosimage.img of=/dev/fd0; sudo sync then you can remove the floppy
[10:27] <niuq> mat1980: i've installed jdk, im pretty sure, im being doing that since netbeans stick asking for it
[10:27] <tbtroja> b3t0, okay, and what happens when you insert the CD and reboot (with the CD still in)?
[10:27] <b3t0> it turns it on
[10:27] <niuq> mat1980: i've installed jdk, im pretty sure, i've*** being doing that since netbeans stick asking for it
[10:28] <b3t0> like i get the ubuntu menu
[10:28] <tbtroja> b3t0, doesn't do anything with the CD, just goes right to Vista?
[10:28] <xlp> i installed wine and installed a windows app but i dont know where it went lol
[10:28] <b3t0> NO IT GOES INTO THE CD
[10:28] <ignignokt00> leagris, i'm getting an i/o error when i try to dd
[10:28] <b3t0> it runs it
[10:28] <tbtroja> b3t0, then you try to boot into Ubuntu (and please don't use all caps, it's annoying)
[10:28] <leagris> ignignokt00, sudo sync is very important because it will flush cached data to the device. Missing it may result in incomplete corrupted data on the floppy
[10:28] <b3t0> but theres this part where it freakin like does something to my screen
[10:28] <tulga> my Asus A6Va's earphone not working. speaker working well. howto solve it?
[10:28] <T-Connect> Ok it look like fstab issue on unmount.
[10:29] <T-Connect> http://img440.imageshack.us/img440/3957/screenshotxi2.png
[10:29] <b3t0> it either turns it black, or sand colored pixel by pixel
[10:29] <ignignokt00> well i did sync, but only after trying "dd" once unsuccessfully
[10:29] <ignignokt00> soo i should start over?
[10:29] <tbtroja> b3t0, have you let that sit for a little bit and see if it loads, and have you tried the Check CD for Defects at the Ubuntu Menu when you boot?
[10:29] <b3t0> ya i checked for defects
[10:29] <niuq> mat1980: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27735/, this appeared, at the end of the installation, when i tried      sudo apt-get install netbeans5.5
[10:29] <Chads> Would anyone be willing to PM me and walk me through Ubuntu?
[10:30] <b3t0> well i havent let it sit cuz it freaked me out
[10:30] <mat1980> niuq: I know, it's the reason why I didn't suggest you to install it.
[10:30] <b3t0> i was like wtf, so i should let it do that?
[10:30] <tbtroja> b3t0, I'm guessing no defects were found?
[10:31] <Lowlande1> Are there any quick way to make server kernel preemptive, or must i compile a new kernel?
[10:31] <bottle> i want method for avoid my little brothers to browse sex website?
[10:31] <xlp> anyone know where WINE installs itself?
[10:31] <b3t0> nope it said everything was ok
[10:31] <leagris> ignignokt00, read error may be caused by bad blocks on the floppy
[10:31] <T-Connect> What that ubuntu bugs report channel again?
[10:31] <Chads> How do you get Ndiswrapper off the Ubuntu CD. I've looked in packages. Synaptics. Add/remove and none of them show Ndiswrapper-utils.
[10:31] <leagris> ignignokt00, I suggest you try with another floppy
[10:31] <Flannel> Chads: this is 7.04 or 6.06 or what?
[10:31] <mattycoze> hey can someone help me mount a windows network?
[10:31] <Chads> 7.04 Flannel
[10:31] <Flannel> T-Connect: launchpad.net
[10:32] <ignignokt00> leagris: will do
[10:32] <tbtroja> b3t0, okay, have you tried messing with the settings that you can select before you choose to boot? (Screen resolution, etc.)  If not try the resolution that you use on Vista or maybe lower to be safe and try that.
[10:32] <Flannel> Chads: Unfortunately (for reasons unbeknownst to me), ndiswrapper was taken off the CD for feisty.  You'll have to get a USB drive or something and sneakernet it (you can get it from packages.ubuntu.com)
[10:32] <Chads> I've read the Ubuntu help files etc and it all says ndiswrapper is on the cd but I cant seem to find it.
[10:32] <niuq> mat1980: ohhh ok, the first time i installed it, i did not have any problem, i just followed instructions from netbeans.org and worked fine
[10:32] <Chads> Mind you I havent a clue about linux.
[10:32] <b3t0> ok well ill try l8er on
[10:32] <T-Connect> Huh? launchpad.net?
[10:32] <T-Connect> What that for?
[10:33] <mat1980> niuq: yes. synaptic actually doesn't install netbeans directly, it just download the installer for you and exec it. The result is the same as you download the installer by yourself.
[10:33] <b3t0> so is my laptop compatible with linux
[10:33] <b3t0> the live cd i got?
[10:33] <Chads> Ahhhhhhh that makes sense then.
[10:33] <Chads> Whats this sneakerpet business?
[10:33] <leo|term> how do i check free space on a hdd?
[10:33] <tbtroja> b3t0, alright, let me know how it turns out.  And yes, a 64bit laptop with a 64bit CD should be fine.
[10:33] <Flannel> Chads: try https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/internet/C/connect-to-internet.html
[10:33] <leagris> ignignokt00, you may try dd if=thefile of=/dev/fd0 sync noerror or erasing the floppy first with dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/fd0 sync noerror
[10:33] <mat1980> niuq: well.. I can't understand why it's asking you jdk... did you uninstall jdk for some reason?
[10:33] <b3t0> what if its a32 bit?
[10:33] <b3t0> will it be ok?
[10:34] <ignignokt00> leagris: i'm trying a new floppy, it appears to be working but it's in the process
[10:34] <niuq> mat1980: not really, the problems started when i moved some directories
[10:34] <tbtroja> b3t0, no, but you said it was an AMB Turion64, right?
[10:34] <tbtroja> AMD*
[10:34] <b3t0> ya
[10:34] <tbtroja> b3t0, than you should be fine.
[10:35] <b3t0> let me chek to be sure
[10:35] <niuq> mat1980: suddenly nothing worked, i tried to put the directories as they were, but didnt  work, so i thought i could reinstall it, but it is not working either
[10:35] <mat1980> niuq: uhm... probably there are some enviroment variables misconfigured now
[10:35] <ignignokt00> leagris: seemed that it worked, will now reboot
[10:35] <b3t0> so how can i have dual boot
[10:35] <Flannel> Chads: hmm, well, that seems to indicate that it is infct on the CD.  It gives you instructions on how to install (if you read and follow the windows wireless driver link).  Let me know if it is actually on the CD, once you figure it out.  Mind you, you might not need ndiswrapper at all.
[10:35] <b3t0> vista and linux?
[10:36] <Chads> Flannel thanks for the link but call me stupid and I can be at times but none of these help sites explain things in a "I've never used Linux in my life" kind of a way.
[10:36] <mat1980> niuq: you should know which enviroment variable the uninstaller read to find the jvm
[10:36] <niuq> mat1980: yeah, that's why i thought if could uninstall it, i could just install it again
[10:36] <Chads> I downloaded Ndiswrapper yesterday but I havent a clue how to get it on the PC.
[10:36] <niuq> mat1980: the jvm?, why, the problem is that does not read the jdk
[10:37] <Flannel> Chads: Put it on a USB drive, and then walk it to the linux PC, and plug it in (walking, on sneakers, hence the "sneakernet")
[10:37] <imbecile> hey guys, how do add a gpg key to a repo in "software sources" please and thank you in advance

[10:38] <b3t0> does that work with the live cd?
[10:38] <niuq> mat1980: and i dont feel like learning another ide, im used to netbeans, i really like it
[10:38] <tbtroja> b3t0, http://apcmag.com/5046/how_to_dual_boot_vista_with_linux_vista_installed_first
[10:38] <Chads> Is that similar to windows. The file seems to be in a tar format.
[10:38] <Flannel> imbecile: at the top of that page (after you create one), there's instructions on what to do.  (and you can use that to get the GPG keys of your local mirrors too)
[10:38] <Chads> I can see the eyes rolling.
[10:38] <tbtroja> b3t0, there might be a better guide then that, but if you want something better, look for yourself :P
[10:39] <kraut> moin
[10:39] <ignignokt00> leagris: thanks so much, my bios is updated :)
[10:39] <niuq> mat1980: should i try removing all package i found?
[10:39] <leagris> ignignokt00, cool
[10:40] <Chads> ok looked up sneakernet on google......now I've the idea.
[10:40] <Chads> once on the USB stick and Ubuntu sees it what do I do with it?
[10:40] <Flannel> Chads: you've got the ndiswrapper deb file for your version of ubuntu, right?  If so, copy it onto your desktop (so you'll have it for later if you need it) and then double click it.
[10:40] <tbtroja> b3t0, I'm off to bed, I hope everything works out.
[10:41] <b3t0> ok thanx
[10:41] <xlp> so i installed warcraft 3 using wine but i cant locate the warcraft3 folder, anyone?
[10:41] <Chads> I take deb is debian? Think so. Got it from the ndiswrapper site. Think its 1.47.
[10:41] <umop> why would my computer not be able to ping google.com? it just says 'ping: unknown host google.com'
[10:41] <imbecile> Flannel,  i know the gpg key and i have the repo added in "software sources" already.. i just need to know how to add the key..
[10:41] <Flannel> Chads: if you don't have it in a deb for your vrsion, http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=ndiswrapper&searchon=names&subword=1&version=feisty&release=all  click the package you want, then at the bottom of that page, there's a table with arches (386, x64, etc), click the one you want, and you'll get mirrors.
[10:42] <Flannel> imbecile: right, at the top of that page after you've generated, it gives instructions for how to add the GPG key.
[10:42] <Chads> Just one question though looking through some of the help files sometimes it says my wireless lan is supported out of the box the next it says it isnt. It has a realtek 8185 chipset.
[10:42] <niuq> mat1980: any idea?
[10:42] <Flannel> xlp: ~/.wine/drive_c/ or somethign like that
[10:42] <Chads> Your some guy flannel. Cheers mate. Thats assuming your a guy. Appreciate the help.
[10:42] <magnetron> link, Chads?
[10:42] <imbecile> Flannel,  the link you gave me doesnt have the repo i am trying to use
[10:43] <umop> why would my computer not be able to ping google.com? it just says 'ping: unknown host google.com'
[10:43] <mat1980> niuq: uhm.. I don't know if it's a good idea. The only thing I can suggest you is to ask on netbeans forum. Your problem is not related to ubuntu. There you will receive more help. Explain that you moved some directory and now it doesn't work. Someone probably will give you the solution.
[10:43] <Flannel> Chads: deb is debian format, yeah.  But debian debs aren't necessarily compatable with ubuntu ones (because of naming/versioning differences with dependencies, mostl)
[10:43] <xlp> Flannel, thats the thing, i dont see the folder anywhere
[10:43] <Flannel> xlp: ctrl-H to show hidden folders.  Everything that starts with a . is 'hidden'
[10:43] <Chads> magnetron is that the link to my card?
[10:44] <xlp> LOL
[10:44] <magnetron> umop: maybe you have no connection to the internet? or the pings is filtered out by i firewall?
[10:44] <xlp> there we go
[10:44] <niuq> mat1980: ok, thank you!
[10:44] <Flannel> imbecile: that's ok.  You have your key, and theyre generic instuctions, you just need to sub your repos key with the sample they give you.
[10:44] <umop> magnetron, dont think so, another computer with same ubuntu can do it no problems
[10:44] <imbecile> can anyone tell me how to add gpg key to a repo i added with "software sources"?
[10:44] <magnetron> Chads: the link to the page which says you card is supported/not
[10:44] <umop> magnetron, and i didnt set any rules
[10:44] <Chads> yeah mate 2 mins...
[10:45] <magnetron> umop: i meant the ISP. nvm. can you surf with it?
[10:45] <umop> magnetron, yes i can surf
[10:45] <umop> lol
[10:45] <Flannel> imbecile: Go to that site, hit "send", hit "create sources.list", then read the 7th and 8th lines
[10:45] <magnetron> umop: try pinging www.google.com
[10:46] <Flannel> imbecile: er, excuse me, just the 8th one.  gpg --export --armor KEY | sudo apt-key add -
[10:46] <xlp> Flannel, so is it just nvidia having crap drivers that makes windows manager sluggish? i enabled acceleration
[10:46] <Chads> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsZyxel
[10:46] <agamezg> hbv,m
[10:46] <Chads> there we go says it is supported out the box.
[10:46] <agamezg> fea
[10:47] <Chads> My chipset anyway. Bran is digitus.
[10:47] <Chads> brand sorry
[10:47] <agamezg> f df
[10:47] <umop> magnetron, ping: unknown host www.google.com
[10:47] <agamezg> afgga
[10:47] <magnetron> umop: dns problems?
[10:47] <umop> magnetron, must be something broken with dns
[10:47] <NewGuy> Question: Is it better to get 7.04, or the current build for 7.10 of Ubuntu??
[10:47] <umop> ok but how can i find the problem
[10:47] <Flannel> NewGuy: 7.04.  7.10 is alpha still
[10:48] <Chads> Flannel just out of interest why did they remove ndiswrapper from ubuntu?
[10:48] <NewGuy> Flannel: Thanks. I'd heard 7.10's alpha 2 wasn't veyr buggy. When does it release?
[10:48] <Flannel> Chads: I don't know.
[10:48] <mattycoze> got a q, i wanna try and access a windows computer from my ubuntu box; all i get is; mount error 13 = Permission denied
[10:48] <Flannel> NewGuy: 7.10 releases in 10 of 7.  So, october.... mid/late month I believe, 20 something.
[10:48] <gordonjcp> mattycoze: right username and password?
[10:49] <Chads> ARe any of you guys involved in the development of Ubuntu?
[10:49] <mattycoze> gordonjcp i don't know which user name/password and where to put it
[10:50] <gordonjcp> mattycoze: same username and password as you'd use for the windows pc, presumably
[10:50] <Flannel> Chads: I looked in the mailing lists, didn't see any mention of it.  Which is odd by itself.  More odd is that they still seem to think it's in there.
[10:52] <magnetron> Chads: there seem to be a bug in the driver for that card
[10:52] <mattycoze> gordonjcp i've got this; sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.2.2/username/ /home/mattycoze/RobsPC/
[10:52] <mattycoze> where do i put the password?
[10:53] <gordonjcp> mattycoze: I don't know
[10:53] <gordonjcp> I don't really use Windows much
[10:53] <gordonjcp> or indeed at all
[10:53] <mattycoze> oh mmm
[10:53] <mattycoze> in an ideal world we all wouldn't be
[10:53] <Chads> ahhh ok magnetron I might have problems then?
[10:54] <OmegaCenti> I want my serial consoles to have green text on black background. How do I go about doing this?
[10:54] <umop> gordonjcp, he is accessing windows from ubuntu, not the other way
[10:54] <gordonjcp> umop: I know
[10:54] <gordonjcp> umop: still doesn't mean I know where to put the password for it
[10:54] <umop> same as linux
[10:55] <gordonjcp> umop: ?
[10:55] <gordonjcp> umop: he's using cifs to connect to a windows pc
[10:55] <mattycoze> true, i can already access my Ubuntu box via XP
[10:55] <mattycoze> and i've turned all firewalls off too
[10:55] <gordonjcp> I haven't got any windows PCs to try it with
[10:56] <Flannel> OmegaCenti: console-tools is probably the easiest route
[10:56] <OmegaCenti> Flannel: just type that in as a command?
[10:56] <umop> mattycoze, sudo mount //192.168.0.1/linux /media/sharename/ -o username=myusername,password=mypassword,dmask=777,fmask=777
[10:56] <Flannel> OmegaCenti: it's a package.  Probably has a command that's similar, but I don't know for sure.
[10:56] <umop> mattycoze, the first address is what you are mounting, second is where you are mountiing to
[10:57] <OmegaCenti> Flannel: hmmm.
[10:57] <Flannel> OmegaCenti: http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?searchmode=filelist&word=console-tools&version=feisty&arch=i386  seems to be a suite of utilities
[10:57] <mattycoze> okay umop - i'll give that a try mate
[10:58] <umop> mattycoze, it's a little different if you are doing it from /etc/fstab and i can show you that as well if you need it
[11:00] <mattycoze> umop; http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27742/
[11:00] <mattycoze> mmm i did something wrong
[11:02] <mattycoze> umop i dunno what the /linux was doing there so i left it
[11:03] <umop> mattycoze, the /linux is the directory on that ip address you want to mount, maybe just leave it off and see what happens
[11:03] <umop> like it could be /music
[11:03] <imbecile> how do i add a gpg key in terminal? here is my sources.list http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27743/  what i am trying to add is repo for screenlets at the very bottom... someone pleeeaaseee give me a straight answer
[11:03] <mattycoze> oh okay lol
[11:03] <niuq> !pastebin
[11:04] <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)
[11:04] <mattycoze> umop; same error
[11:04] <imbecile> was that pastebin to me?
[11:04] <Flannel> imbecile: Go to that site, hit "send", hit "create sources.list", then read the 8th line: gpg --export --armor KEY | sudo apt-key add -
[11:05] <Flannel> imbecile: I already said that, by the way.
[11:07] <umop> mattycoze, are you mounting a directory that is actually shared? (the /whatever needs to be shared by the sindows box)
[11:07] <imbecile> Flannel,  well when i generate a new sources.list what happens to my old repos like trevino and such? i did it a completely different way installing trevino.. seems like your way is alot more difficult and still pretty vague
[11:07] <umop> mattycoze, maybe also create a directory inside /home/Nakarath/ just so we know permissions arn't a problem
[11:08] <temOo> bonjour
[11:08] <Flannel> imbecile: Generating the sources.list is just on the website, it doesn't do anything to the one on your computer.  All I was saying is that the list that is generated gives you the commands to add keys.  Which, I also appended to my comment about how to get there.
[11:08] <Flannel> imbecile: gpg --export --armor KEY | sudo apt-key add -
[11:09] <mattycoze> umop - shit you're right that's meant to be /home/mattycoze/Nakarath; but i get this now http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27745/
[11:09] <OmegaConsole> Alright, so I am still not understanding consolechars. I am trying to read the man, but I can't findout if my console supports green text or not, and I canot find out how to tell how many columns and rows are curently available
[11:09] <mattycoze> sorry for my stupidity
[11:09] <OmegaConsole> I just want a green font :(
[11:10] <Flannel> OmegaCenti: you probably want a vga option on the kernel for that. add `vga=ask` and then after you've figured out what option you want, go back and make that permanant
[11:10] <OmegaConsole> Flannel: add that to menu.lst?
[11:11] <dromer> how do I activate qemu's accelerator? kqemu
[11:11] <Flannel> OmegaConsole: yeah, in the commented kopt line.  But the first time (the ask) you could just edit it at the grub menu as well
[11:12] <umop> mattycoze, not sure, that means it thinks your password is wrong, or the directory you're trying to mount doesn't exist
[11:12] <OmegaConsole> Flannel: hmmm.. looking for kopt line now
[11:12] <OmegaConsole> Flannel: Do you mean the kernal line for the specific one I boot up to?
[11:13] <wietz0r> How do I delete a user ?
[11:13] <wietz0r> deluser just complains "User not logged in currently"
[11:13] <Flannel> OmegaConsole: yeah.  it'll go at the end of that.  And you can use setterm to set the attributes (color) of your terminal as well.
[11:13] <Frogzoo> wietz0r: deluser
[11:14] <OmegaConsole> Flannel: setterm, just a command or another kernal option?
[11:14] <Flannel> OmegaConsole: that's a command
[11:14] <Flannel> OmegaConsole: kopt should be near the top, before the generated kernel lines
[11:14] <wietz0r> Frogzoo: I just said it just complains that the user isn't logged in
[11:15] <OmegaConsole> Flannel: there is only one kopt?
[11:15] <OmegaConsole> Flannel: found it
[11:16] <wietz0r> Frogzoo: Hmm, apparantly --force did the trick
[11:16] <Flannel> OmegaConsole: yeah.  It's commented out (keep it commented out)
[11:16] <OmegaConsole> Flannel: what is the kopt=root=UUID=Lots of weird number ro
[11:17] <geniusvicks> does anyone know how to install pidgin?
[11:17] <ziroday> geniusvicks: theres a .deb at getdeb.com
[11:17] <wietz0r> geniusvicks: apt-get install pidgin ?
[11:17] <Flannel> OmegaConsole: That's the stuff that gets put into your Ubuntu lines.  each time you install a new kernel (upgrade, etc), your sources.list gets regenerated.  the kopt line is used to recreate the lines
[11:17] <OmegaConsole> alrighty then
[11:17] <OmegaConsole> I uncommented and added that
[11:18] <OmegaConsole> I am going to try and reboot
[11:18] <Flannel> OmegaConsole: no.  DONT uncomment it.
[11:18] <geniusvicks> wietz0r no such package
[11:18] <Flannel> !pidgin | geniusvicks
[11:18] <ubotu> geniusvicks: 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.

[11:23] <Flannel> OmegaCenti: DONT uncomment it.  (go back and recomment it)
[11:23] <OmegaCenti> lol I can't even tell if I screwed things up or not... I might have chose too many rowsxcolumns
[11:23] <OmegaCenti> Flannel: okay
[11:23] <yohan> i need to patch the kernel as in http://www.howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_ubuntu
[11:23] <OmegaCenti> Flannel: going back and uncommenting
[11:23] <incorrect> how can i generate an md5 hash from the command line?
[11:24] <Flannel> OmegaCenti: No.  DONT unomment.  re-comment.  Put a # infront of the kopt
[11:24] <RainCT> Hi

[11:31] <RainCT> how can I get the changelog of a package in Ubuntu?
[11:31] <mewt> hi, can anyone tell me how to upgrade to pidgin ? as im still on gaim... im on feisty and i have backports in my sources.list
[11:31] <Iwizzard> HI: in Amorak in the "colllection" manager is there a way to play the songs without havint to first drag them/dubble klick them so thay end upp in a playlist.
[11:32] <Chads> Has everyone retired for the day?
[11:32] <RainCT> mewt: there's an unofficial repository that provides it, one moment
[11:32] <PriceChild> mewt, pidgin probably won't be appearing in feisty and so no official support
[11:32] <szaemon_> I'm trying to migrate from Win XP Pro to Ubuntu. Can I/Should I try to run Office 2000 on Ubuntu?
[11:32] <Chads> RainCT: Could you walk me through installing Ndiswrapper?
[11:32] <mewt> shouldnt it be updated throught backports tho ?
[11:32] <PriceChild> szaemon_, No
[11:32] <PriceChild> szaemon_, we have "open office"
[11:33] <Jester> szaemon_ OpenOffice.org 2 would be my suggestion.
[11:33] <Amaranth> mewt: why? is there some major bug in gaim?
[11:33] <TexasTaz> szaemon_: Just use Open Office it will open all your Office docs usually unless you have sophisticated macros in them
[11:33] <RainCT> mewt: there it is   deb http://www.telemail.fi/mlind/ubuntu feisty main    it has Pidigin and Thunderbird 2
[11:33] <Amaranth> RainCT: No.
[11:33] <PriceChild> szaemon_, there's a windows version yuo can install on the desktop cd... put it into your computer while windows is running and you'll get the option to install openoffice in windows so you can try it out
[11:33] <RainCT> Amaranth: ?
[11:33] <mewt> Amaranth, not really, but i have pidgin on my laptop that's running fedora 7 and i like the color scheme
[11:33] <mewt> Amaranth, :p
[11:33] <Amaranth> !worksforme | RainCT
[11:33] <ubotu> RainCT: 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.
[11:34] <RainCT> Amaranth: Gaim is a RC, Pidgin a stable release lol
[11:34] <szaemon_> Thanks
[11:34] <TexasTaz> szaemon_: Save all your Office Docs an to dvd/cd another system and then go ahead and install ubuntu, I did it about 3 months ago and i am glad I did
[11:34] <Amaranth> RainCT: and that's a 3rd party repo
[11:34] <OmegaCenti> I need some guides on consoles.. I would really like to understand them more, I am having problems setting fonts, columnxrows(don't know what this is formally called), trying to set vga mode in realtime(is this even possible?) without usuing a kernal option, and understanding how everything works in general on console.
[11:35] <Amaranth> RainCT: your probably just ruined any chance mewt had of upgrading to 7.10 when it comes out
[11:35] <RainCT> Amaranth: yes but iirc it's owned by the same one that packaged Pidgin for gutsy
[11:35] <TexasTaz> i am on a Windows machine now that is about to get convereted lol I hate Windows
[11:35] <Jester> I continued to use OpenOffice even in XP after a while... heh.
[11:35] <Amaranth> RainCT: No, that guy doesn't package anything for Ubuntu proper afaik
[11:35] <mewt> Amaranth, why should he have done that ?
[11:35] <mattycoze> do i need to have samba running on windows so i can access it from the Ubuntu box?
[11:36] <Chads> Would somebody be willing to help me get me Ubuntu machine on the internet. Flannel was helping....
[11:36] <TexasTaz> What's up Chads
[11:36] <szaemon_> Ubuntu and Windows in seperate partitions on one system. Can I access my windows files directly through Ubuntu?

[11:37] <mewt> gaim was kept back >.<
[11:37] <Jester> Is anyone worried that Ubuntu is becoming too main-stream... or is that a foolish thing to think?
[11:37] <Chads> Texas: Cant find Ndiswrapper on Ubuntu even though it says its on the CD. I beleive I need this for my WLAN card.
[11:37] <szaemon_> Only in FORMAT?? What does that mean?
[11:37] <xipi> hi
[11:37] <aLTer> Jester, it's good thing.

[11:37] <TexasTaz> Chads: Did you add the universe respository in the sources/list
[11:37] <root___> can someone paste me the sudoers file please?
[11:37] <TexasTaz> sources.list
[11:38] <gregors> one question how do I backup all my data on another ubuntu machine over nfs
[11:38] <TexasTaz> Hold on let me check something might take a few chads
[11:38] <Jester> aLTer Maybe it'll lead to more compatibility at least. :)
[11:38] <Chads> Now see your talking posh...lol Take me as a bloke who has just yesterday installed Linux and errrrr thats as far as I know. Ask me about windows and I may just be able to communicate.
[11:38] <dotdashandy> Thank GOD.
[11:38] <dotdashandy> 5.10 is finally installing
[11:39] <gregors> :)
[11:39] <xipi> i got a hd problem and need to burn data to a dvd. it would be best to use a live-cd, which can run completely from ram (1gig). which would you recommend - preferrably using k3b?
[11:39] <TexasTaz> Wow Chads you in England or somewhere other than the US
[11:39] <PriceChild> dotdashandy, 5.10 has reached EOL and is no longer supported afaik...
[11:39] <Chads> yeah pal.
[11:39] <dotdashandy> I know, but it's a start
[11:39] <TexasTaz> Chads: Where?
[11:39] <dotdashandy> I've been trying for 9 hours and finally something is installing
[11:39] <Chads> Well Germany to be honest but from UK.
[11:39] <Chads> From Manchester
[11:39] <PriceChild> dotdashandy, you should dist-upgrade it to dapper asap
[11:40] <dotdashandy> Ubuntu 7, Ubuntu 6, Fedora 7 6 5 and 3
[11:40] <dotdashandy> and this is the only thing.
[11:40] <TexasTaz> Oh my Gawd okay let me see if I still have my Skype working I need to call ya on this and walk you through
[11:40] <root___> can someone paste me the sudoers file?
[11:40] <dotdashandy> PriceChild: Oh trust me I plan on it

[11:40] <TexasTaz> lol
[11:40] <Chads> Just trying to get me head round Ubuntu. I beleive once I can get it on the internet I can then find the info by surfing from that machine. At the minute am up and down using the laptop.
[11:40] <kane77> if I removed mysql-server will I have my data back after reinstall??
[11:41] <Chads> True.....but are your hands upto the job...
[11:41] <TexasTaz> Hey Chads goto How to forge they have a good article on using and dling ndiswrapper, make sure you have the actual inf file though
[11:41] <Flannel> Chads: you want the -utils package (but grab them all, just in case)
[11:41] <TexasTaz> oh and the sys file as well
[11:41] <mattycoze> do i need to have samba running on windows so i can access it from the Ubuntu box?????
[11:42] <TexasTaz> Flannel: Really where is that on at? Or what name is it?

[11:42] <Chads> Flannel: Cheers mate. I'll put them all on me USB stick and then if I place them on the Ubuntu desktop I should just be able to doubleclick them?
[11:43] <TexasTaz> Well it's an apt-get package isn't it Flannel
[11:43] <root___> i have modified the sudoers can someone paste me the default configuration please?
[11:43] <Chads> Is that using the terminal?
[11:44] <TexasTaz> No I think it uses Synaptic or something via the gui Chads
[11:44] <Flannel> TexasTaz: yeah.
[11:44] <Flannel> Chads: you double click the utils one, since that's the one you use. Or, from what I understand.  I've never done it.

[11:47] <pmjdebruijn> Hi I just installed Ubuntu (server), and used LILO instead of GRUB, how can I install GRUB, _and_ get the automatically updated grub.conf/menu.lst when updating my kernels
[11:47] <TexasTaz> I have found that getting an answer can take days sometimes weeks
[11:48] <Chads> Flannel: I just find that help.ubuntu assumes you have some knowledge of Linux. For someone like me, although a quick learner its like reading ancient greek.

[12:21] <ignignokt00> oh
[12:21] <ignignokt00> ~ means /home/chad

[12:23] <variant> jokerwitte: use a program such as gtkpod or amarok
[12:23] <kane77> lmc_phx1, not yet :/ it worked fine before... now it doesnt...
[12:23] <variant> arash: there are open source vnc server/clients and closed source ones

[12:23] <arash> OmegaCenti - I rememver somone having the same problem as you before in this channel....
[12:23] <jokerwitte> gtkpod does not recognise it either -- and all help guides seem to start at the point where at a minimum the ipod shows up on the desktop.
[12:23] <TheFallenArchAng> hello
[12:23] <variant> z3r0ph3wl: ok, did you require that the remote user allow the connection?
[12:23] <OmegaCenti> arash: any ideas would be appreciated

[12:26] <variant> z3r0ph3wl: the remote machine doesn't require a monitor
[12:26] <arash> OmegaCenti - Might be worth taking a peek at System : Preferences : Sound : System Beep

[12:28] <arash> !iso |theTrav
[12:28] <ubotu> theTrav: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[12:29] <theTrav> ta
[12:29] <lmc_phx1> kane77, so world has at least read access right?
[12:29] <kane77> lmc_phx1, I tried asking at #phpmyadmin, but it's pretty dead there...
[12:29] <kane77> lmc_phx1, yep
[12:30] <xeon_> So, why do you think ubuntu has blown up to be as big as it is now? Is it mostly because of how it's so much easier to use or ? Does it make using linux more comfortable? Is the roar mostly newbies or? because it's based off debian so the vibe i get is the user friendlyness that is what makes it so popular
[12:30] <theTrav> hmm
[12:30] <Assassyn> hi
[12:30] <lmc_phx1> kane77, apache2 right? still running under www-data, or possibly under your user?

[12:32] <arash> assassyn - tried "sudo apt-get remove <packagename>" ?
[12:32] <ignignokt00> then
[12:32] <theTrav> ignignokt00: does that make a mountpoint called loop?
[12:32] <ignignokt00> !mount | theTrav
[12:32] <ubotu> theTrav: 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
[12:32] <lmc_phx1> kane77, sorry for the dumb questions... if you create any ol' php doc in that dir, will apache serve it up for you?
[12:32] <Assassyn> how can i search for the last update package.. and remove it?
[12:32] <ignignokt00> or ignore that
[12:32] <Assassyn> arash i don`t know the package name :((
[12:32] <theTrav> oh
[12:32] <theTrav> partitioning
[12:32] <kane77> lmc_phx1, yes. that works...
[12:32] <wietz0r> How do I add a user to certain groups ?
[12:32] <ignignokt00> no dude, my bad, don't partition
[12:32] <ignignokt00> sudo mount -o loop /path/to/iso/file /media/loop
[12:33] <jokerwitte> ubuntu does not automatically find my ipod. any ideas?
[12:33] <doojin> hi
[12:33] <theTrav> so there's already a mount point called /media/loop?
[12:33] <Assassyn> is there any command to list all installed packages by date/last modified...
[12:33] <doojin> I can't write on NTFS partitions whild on linux
[12:33] <theTrav> used for temporary stuff?
[12:33] <doojin> *while
[12:33] <arash> assassyn - antything intersting hjappens with "apt-get -u" ?
[12:33] <wietz0r> doojin: apt-get install ntfs-2g
[12:33] <doojin> Who knows how to handle it?
[12:33] <wietz0r> doojin: apt-get install ntfs-3g
[12:33] <doojin> ?
[12:33] <ignignokt00> theTrav: you have to "sudio mkdir /media/loop", there shouldn't be there one now
[12:33] <wietz0r> 3g not 2g
[12:33] <doojin> What are 2g, 3g?
[12:33] <doojin> ok
[12:33] <theTrav> ok, so a mount point is just a dir?
[12:34] <lmc_phx1> kane77, and the permissions show that you are the owner of the file? if so, try a sudo chown -R youruser /phpmyadmin
[12:34] <theTrav> I could call it whatever I want?
[12:34] <ignignokt00> yeah
[12:34] <ignignokt00> yup
[12:34] <theTrav> ok cool
[12:34] <dxdemetriou> how can I refresh my libraries?
[12:34] <TheFallenArchAng> needin some help with ndiswrapper
[12:34] <arash> theTrav - yep :),, what else could it be? "D:\" ;)?
[12:34] <Assassyn> -u?
[12:34] <doojin> wietz0r : where did you get that info?
[12:34] <OmegaCenti> Anyone know vga tables for linux? I am trying to find a very big vga table as I am using a widescreen resolution.
[12:34] <theTrav> rad, that worked
[12:34] <wietz0r> doojin: google mostly
[12:35] <theTrav> thanks ignignokt00
[12:35] <ReK_> where can i dl the kernel headers for 2.6.20-15.27? packages.ubuntu.com only seems to have -16
[12:35] <doojin> wietz0r : but google mostly displays useless infos
[12:35] <arash> Assassyn - does it return anything of intrest?
[12:35] <wietz0r> doojin: google "ntfs reading writing ubuntu"
[12:35] <Dave_K> Excuse me for that question, but I am new on linux... I'd like to know how to change somethin' about Nautilus. See, when a file or a folder as a long name, the vertical alignement change to match the length of the file/folder. I don't like this. Can comeone explain how to change it ?
[12:35] <doojin> wietz0r : smart
[12:35] <theTrav> actually I'm probably going to have to mess with wine to pretend that it is D:\
[12:35] <wietz0r> doojin: NO, you just gotta learn howto use google
[12:35] <theTrav> but that can come later
[12:35] <Assassyn> nope
[12:35] <doojin> wietz0r : I'm not good at making search words
[12:35] <wietz0r> doojin: practice
[12:36] <ReK_> where can i dl the kernel headers for 2.6.20-15.27? packages.ubuntu.com only seems to have -16
[12:36] <Assassyn> arash
[12:36] <Assassyn> where asre this packages stored?
[12:36] <Assassyn> when they are installed..
[12:36] <ignignokt00> late, but no prob theTrav
[12:36] <lmc_phx1> just for grins, any vb/asp guys in here?
[12:36] <nightrid3r> anyone knows how to change the mac address of a ethernet device?
[12:36] <Assassyn> there must be a place for the package
[12:37] <arash> Assassyn, hmmm, let me see...
[12:37] <doojin> wietz0r : do I need to reboot to see the effect take place?
[12:37] <ignignokt00> no
[12:37] <wietz0r> doojin: I've already forgotten what you are trying to do
[12:37] <ignignokt00> you only need to reboot if you want to start using a kernel update
[12:37] <doojin> wietz0r : I installed ntfs-3g
[12:37] <wietz0r> doojin: oh, you gotta remount the ntfs partition with "mount -t ntfs-3g "
[12:37] <Daviey> nightrid3r: http://whoozoo.co.uk/mac-spoof-linux.htm
[12:37] <AutumnCat> nightrid3r: ifconfig
[12:37] <doojin> thanks
[12:38] <ReK_> where can i dl the kernel headers for 2.6.20-15.27? packages.ubuntu.com only seems to have -16
[12:38] <Zaibot> Hi. I was playing and got some heavy lag so I restarted my computer. Now it won't show my wireless connection in network settings. I found this in my system log: hultiz-desktop kernel: [   322.630146]  eth0: Media Link Off. Do anyone know how to solve this?
[12:38] <wietz0r> Zaibot: eth0 = wired
[12:38] <arash> assassyn - maybe jjust in /etc/
[12:38] <Amaranth> Zaibot: do you have a wireless kill switch?
[12:38] <wietz0r> Assassyn: .debs are saved in /var/cache/
[12:38] <doojin> wietz0r : how do I write on /etc/fstab?
[12:38] <OmegaCenti> Anyone know the VGA mode for 1280x768?
[12:39] <Zaibot> Amaranth; I dont know what that is
[12:39] <arash> doojin - prefarably not manually
[12:39] <Daviey> ReK_: apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.20-15
[12:39] <doojin> arash : ?
[12:39] <wietz0r> doojin: with the sudo command, if you're not sure what you're doing however, don't do it and ask someone who knows
[12:39] <doojin> arash : what do you mean?
[12:39] <Amaranth> Zaibot: the thing you have to push before they'll let you use your computer on an airplane
[12:39] <Assassyn> ok.. brb
[12:39] <doojin> wietz0r : I replaced ntfs with ntfs-3g in /etc/fstab
[12:39] <wietz0r> how can I add a user to certain groups ?
[12:39] <ReK_> Daviey: cant, no net connection on linux. and i dl'd the linux-headers package, i need the full kernel source apparently
[12:39] <Amaranth> Zaibot: it's a hardware button that disables the wifi
[12:40] <ignignokt00> administration>users and groups
[12:40] <cupps> I just installed 7.04, and I'm having trouble getting my wireless card working.
[12:40] <AutumnCat> doojin: it's dangerous to edit fstab
[12:40] <arash> doojin - I'm no expert, but I would guess that you should doc ommands such as "mount" and "umount" from terminal instead of editting fstab manually
[12:40] <doojin> AutumnCat : but if I don't edit fstab, I can't do it automatically
[12:40] <Chads> Anyone willing to work with a total newb to get this ndiswrapper working?
[12:40] <Zaibot> Amaranth no I don't have such a button
[12:40] <ignignokt00> if it's something you're going to use every time you boot, you should add it to fstab
[12:40] <AutumnCat> doojin: so you must be careful
[12:40] <arash> doojin - whats your issue?
[12:40] <wietz0r> AutumnCat: It's not dangerous if you do it for partition that aren't vital for the system
[12:40] <ignignokt00> back it up before you do anything: sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.bak
[12:40] <doojin> AutumnCat : I wrote ntfs-3g in /etc/fstab and it still works fine
[12:41] <doojin> but I can't still write
[12:41] <Amaranth> Zaibot: you have to
[12:41] <AutumnCat> doojin: ?
[12:41] <ignignokt00> doojin
[12:41] <AutumnCat> doojin: what do you mean
[12:41] <doojin> hmm
[12:41] <doojin> ok
[12:41] <Zaibot> Amaranth: the wifi card is blinking happily even though ubuntu doesn't seem to find it so it should be on
[12:41] <ignignokt00> copy and paste your /etc/fstab to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[12:41] <cupps> How can I update the driver for my wireless card in Ubuntu?
[12:41] <Amaranth> Zaibot: what does iwconfig say?
[12:41] <doojin> # /dev/sda1
[12:41] <doojin> UUID=38C87770C8772B70 /media/sda1     ntfs-3g    defaults,nls=utf8,umask=000 0       1
[12:41] <Amaranth> Zaibot: does it see your wifi?
[12:41] <doojin> I did it like this
[12:42] <doojin> from ntfs to ntfs-3g
[12:42] <Zaibot> Amaranth: lo    no wireless extensions; eth0    no wireless extensions
[12:42] <Amaranth> doojin: drop the UUID and put /dev/sda1 in there, ntfs-3g doesn't like to work with UUID
[12:42] <Amaranth> Zaibot: so it's not even seeing eth1
[12:43] <Amaranth> Zaibot: i still say wireless kill switch
[12:43] <doojin> Amaranth : I think it works in terminal but not in notilus
[12:43] <Amaranth> Zaibot: if you think you don't have one you don't know if you hit it
[12:43] <Zaibot> Amaranth: I do not know of this, where would it be located?
[12:43] <ReK_> where can i dl the kernel headers for 2.6.20-15.27? packages.ubuntu.com only seems to have -16
[12:43] <arash> >	I have three hardware "speakers", one is a speaker set and I have two headphones, though only one seems too be active/working? Anyone know how to fix it?
[12:43] <Amaranth> Zaibot: it'd be a Fn combo key or a big button under the screen
[12:43] <Zaibot> Amaranth: i've checked the wifi card quite throughly and I can't find one
[12:43] <tapas> Zaibot: many notebooks have function keys to dim the display, adjust volume etc..
[12:43] <farrioth> I'm a gentoo user who had used dpgk before, and I wish to learn more about Ubuntu.  Where
[12:44] <Amaranth> Zaibot: look for a button that looks like it means wireless
[12:44] <doojin> oops
[12:44] <farrioth> 's a good place to start?
[12:44] <Zaibot> Amaranth so its a key on the keyboard?
[12:44] <doojin> ntfs-3g doesn't activate the cut and paste function in notilus
[12:44] <tapas> Zaibot: and these notebooks have a special key called "Fn" or something used to trigger this extra functionality
[12:44] <Amaranth> Zaibot: it seems to be on most dells so that's certainly possible
[12:44] <doojin> ntfs-3g but activates deletion
[12:44] <Amaranth> Zaibot: probably something like Fn+F4
[12:45] <OmegaCenti> Anyone know the VGA mode for 1280x768? for startup?
[12:45] <arash> Fn+F4 opens calculator for me :)
[12:45] <ReK_> where can i dl the kernel headers for 2.6.20-15.27? packages.ubuntu.com only seems to have -16
[12:45] <tapas> where do i find info on software versins in the next ubuntu release
[12:45] <Zaibot> Amaranth: This is not a notebook, and there is no fn-key
[12:45] <tapas> s/release/version/
[12:45] <Amaranth> Zaibot: oh
[12:45] <ReK_> where can i dl the kernel headers for 2.6.20-15.27? packages.ubuntu.com only seems to have -16
[12:45] <Amaranth> Zaibot: make sure the card is seated firmly in the pci slot
[12:45] <Amaranth> Zaibot: turn the computer off first, of course
[12:46] <Chads> if I have a driver from realtek for my wlan card how do I get into Ubuntu?
[12:46] <tapas> Zaibot: what does lspci say?
[12:46] <Amaranth> Zaibot: or, even better, try moving it to another pci slot
[12:46] <Zaibot> Amaranth: I will try that
[12:46] <dqdev> hello all. Sorry to ask here, but it's quite urgent. A need a library (libg2c.so.0) for 32bit. I have a 64bit machine and this library for the 64bit is installed. But where do I get the one for the 32 bits?
[12:46] <tapas> post it to some pastesite
[12:46] <tapas> Zaibot: also try ifconfig -a
[12:46] <tapas> [maybe it was just down] 
[12:47] <arash> ReK_ this is something i found easily with googling, dunno if it is what you want https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/feisty/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/2.6.20-15.27 , personally I hardly know what a kernel is
[12:47] <supremesonic> anyone know how to a tab in xchat show all users online in current channel ?
[12:47] <Zaibot> Amaranth: It finds "lo" and "eth0"
[12:47] <ReK_> how would i go about compiling and installing a new kernal? no custom stuff, just upgrading from 2.6.20-15 to -16
[12:47] <dxdemetriou> what is the command to reload my libraries?
[12:47] <tapas> ReK_: why would you want t o compile it?
[12:47] <doojin> There is a good news for me
[12:48] <ReK_> because i dont ahve -16
[12:48] <tapas> ReK_: justdo apt-get update, apt-get upgrade :)
[12:48] <doojin> After re-login, I can see ntfs-3g work fine with notilus
[12:48] <ReK_> cant
[12:48] <ignignokt00> ReK_: if you want update, use apt
[12:48] <ignignokt00> why not?
[12:48] <ReK_> no net conn on linux partition
[12:48] <ignignokt00> ah
[12:48] <ReK_> this is what im trying to fix
[12:48] <ReK_> need kernel source to compile madwifi
[12:48] <Zaibot> Amaranth: "Ethernet controller: athros communications inc. ar5212802.11abg NIC"
[12:49] <tapas> Zaibot: i'm not amarant, but thanks
[12:49] <alberto> hi
[12:49] <tapas> Zaibot: that looks like a cable ethernet controller though
[12:49] <ReK_> Zaibot: madwifi.org
[12:49] <tapas> Zaibot: not like wireles
[12:49] <ReK_> it says 802.11abg ...
[12:49] <alberto> can I upgrade to gutsy changing sources and apt-get dist-ugrade ?
[12:49] <Zaibot> 802.11abg should be our wireless
[12:49] <tapas> oh right
[12:49] <ReK_> lol
[12:50] <alberto> can I?
[12:50] <Zaibot> so it does exist, but for some reason ubuntu doesn't accept it or something
[12:50] <ReK_> Zaibot: madwifi
[12:50] <xor11u> Hi, I have question about "HP Scanjet 3800 Scanner" support on linux, can I use this scanner on linux?
[12:51] <arash> I have three hardware "speakers", one is a speaker set and I have two headphones, though only one seems too be active/working? Anyone know how to fix it?
[12:51] <ReK_> madwifi is the atheros linux driver
[12:51] <arash> xor11u - tried with http://hplip.sourceforge.net/ ?
[12:51] <Chads> I'll be buggered if I can get ndiswrapper to work. its like reading bloody greek on the help site
[12:51] <Zaibot> ReK_: I'll download it
[12:51] <ReK_> dont
[12:51] <ReK_> it should be included in ubuntu
[12:51] <ReK_> hang on
[12:52] <alberto> what is the best way to upgrading to gutsy?
[12:52] <mik9dt> test
[12:52] <arash> alberto - with the GUI?
[12:52] <ReK_> Zaibot: http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/Distro/Ubuntu
[12:52] <alberto> changing feisty with gutsy in apt/sources and apt-get dist-upgrade?
[12:52] <alberto> arash: what gui?
[12:53] <fbettag> morning
[12:53] <F00BaR`> hi
[12:53] <defrysk> alberto, /j #ubuntu+1
[12:53] <arash> alberto - are you using Dappper Drake and want to Go to Gutsy? thats the order if im not mistaken...
[12:53] <tapas> i wonder whether there's a package list somewhere for guty
[12:53] <tapas> where i can see what versions of software are in there
[12:53] <fbettag> anyone can explain why ubuntu 7.04 server cd comes with wireless-tools/wpasupplicant/ppp*/laptop-detect?
[12:53] <alberto> no, I am using feisty
[12:53] <Zaibot> i tried updating linux-restricted-modules but it failed so I might have lost the driver that way
[12:53] <arash> wait, what comes berween feisty and Dapper?
[12:53] <ignignokt00> edgy
[12:54] <F00BaR`> ^^^^
[12:54] <arash> sorry, mixed gutsy and edgy up....
[12:54] <Myrtti> fbettag: I can think of many good reasons, but I'm not sure they're the official ones
[12:54] <fbettag> Myrtti: Well i cannot think of any good reason for putting wireless/laptop stuff on a server..
[12:55] <tapas> fbettag: except for when you want t oserver wireless network?
[12:55] <Myrtti> laptops are quiet, that could be why someone might use a laptop as a server
[12:55] <Myrtti> and if you don't want to pull meters of cat-6 around your apartment, wifi is nice
[12:55] <fbettag> so whats that gotta do with a SERVER :)
[12:55] <arash> !sound
[12:55] <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
[12:56] <ignignokt00> wifi != notebook computers
[12:56] <Myrtti> ignignokt00: yes?
[12:56] <tibbe> is there a command line tool for searching for packages?
[12:56] <tapas> a server is a computer that provides services
[12:56] <Myrtti> ^
[12:56] <fbettag> tibbe: apt-cache search
[12:56] <tapas> can be a noetbook, too.. cn happen over wirelessm, too
[12:56] <ignignokt00> that's my point
[12:56] <Zaibot> ReK_: is there any way to download linux-restricted-modules when im on xp? the madwifi.com download didnt work
[12:56] <Zaibot> ReK_: or download madwifi drivers somewhere else
[12:57] <ziroday> Zaibot: yes from packages.ubuntu.com
[12:57] <fbettag> well but why doesn't it simply ask me if want all that crap? (in case i don't)
[12:57] <tibbe> fbettag: thanks
[12:57] <Ayabara> Qsvn needs libapr0 to build, but that package is obsolete and replaced by libapr1. When I build I get "/usr/bin/ld: warning: libapr-0.so.0, needed by /home/anr/Desktop/tmp/trunk/build/bin/libsvnqt-qt4.so, not found (try using -rpath or -rpath-link)"
[12:57] <ReK_> Zaibot: did you install ubuntu from the desktop cd img?
[12:57] <tapas> Zaibot: yes, point your browser to the repo and download the packages
[12:57] <tapas> Zaibot: then use dpkg to install them
[12:57] <Ayabara> anyone know how I can work around this?
[12:57] <fbettag> i just want a minimal system
[12:57] <fbettag> :s
[12:57] <ignignokt00> uninstall them :)
[12:57] <fbettag> then it comes with like all of the system will be removed
[12:58] <Zaibot> ReK_: I installed it from a CD that I downloaded from the website
[12:58] <fbettag> but i'll give it a hit, if it fucks up it's one more reason to *not* take debian-based systems =)
[12:58] <Myrtti> something other than ubuntu-minimal?
[12:58] <farcl0ud> hello
[12:58] <Myrtti> fbettag: please mind your language, there are minors present
[12:58] <ReK_> Zaibot: did you change any of the options on the download, or just hit the download button
[12:58] <fbettag> Myrtti: oh sorry
[12:59] <tapas> minors should learn the complete language, too ;)
[12:59] <fbettag> s/f*/wrecks/
[12:59] <thedonvaughn> fbettag, if u want a server run minimal install.. why not just run debian?
[12:59] <Ayabara> anyone know? can I install the obsolete libapr0 package on my system, or patch the sources to it looks for libapr1 instead?
[12:59] <Myrtti> Ayabara: make a symlink?
[12:59] <fbettag> thedonvaughn: debian is the biggest evil on earth =) that's why i switched to gentoo one day ;) but since i don't want to waste ages getting my xen-servers up i'd thought to give ubuntu a try =)
[01:00] <dxdemetriou> what is the command to reload libraries that there are but not working?
[01:00] <Zaibot> ReK_: It has worked fine so far and I've used it for at least a month so it shouldn't be a faulty download. And no, I didn't change anything. I'm downloading madwifi now
[01:00] <Commander-Ape> is there away to activate surround sound
[01:00] <ReK_> Zaibot: then you already have linux-restricted-modules-common, and you just need the tools pkg listed on that page. then go to the madwifi homepage and look for the newbie docs
[01:00] <arash> fbettag , maybe Vista will make it in minutes ;)
[01:00] <dxdemetriou> !libraries
[01:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about libraries - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:00] <eXistenz> where can I download fglrx 8.28 for ubuntu?
[01:00] <ReK_> Zaibot: wait, your wireless worked fine and now it doesnt?
[01:00] <fbettag> arash: i found my love with freebsd ;) but it doesn't run as dom0 yet ;)
[01:01] <farcl0ud> I like feisty fawn lol
[01:01] <ignignokt00> you wink that much in real life?
[01:01] <ignignokt00> i mean, damn :)
[01:01] <Zaibot> ReK_: yes, i tried updating linux.restricted-modules and there was some error when i did it, and when i restarted my computer it didnt find the wifi properly
[01:01] <Zaibot> ReK_: I didnt change any settings
[01:01] <melchior7> i need more ram
[01:01] <farcl0ud> lol, ignig
[01:02] <melchior7> 512 is a bit low for ubuntu
[01:02] <ReK_> Zaibot: that's why then. linux-restricted-modules contains madwifi, which was installed and working without you knowing it. updating it broke it. try rolling it back
[01:02] <farcl0ud> 266mhz 512MB on my laptop...
[01:02] <arash> melchior7 - I think Xubuntu  might work, but a better solution might be some store that sells RAM
[01:02] <SFX-Bladerunner> what Nvidia drivers do I have to install? cuz I installed the ones ubuntu already put on but somehow I cant set my resolution above 1024x768 at 57hz ?
[01:02] <melchior7> xfce isn't really that much faster than ubuntu
[01:02] <wietz0r> ReK_: Couldn't he just do "apt-get install madwifi-source module-assistant && m-a prepare && m-a a-i madwifi ?
[01:03] <melchior7> gnome i mean
[01:03] <SFX-Bladerunner> I have a Geforce 7600gs 512mb
[01:03] <Zaibot> ReK_: how do i roll it back?
[01:03] <jrib> F00BaR`: please join #ubuntu-ops for a test
[01:03] <melchior7> is there any way, from command line, to tell what busspeed my ram is?

[01:03] <arash> SFX-Bladerunner - out of own experience, dont mess up with guides the first thing you do,  play around iwth the GUI first and try to see all options about resolution
[01:03] <ReK_> wietz0r: no clue lol. im pretty new to linux myself, i just know madwifi well cause ive been trying to get it working for months
[01:03] <ReK_> Zaibot: no idea, ask someone else, but that's what you need to do to fix it, im pretty sure
[01:04] <Commander-Ape> SFX-Bladerunner: you need to change /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:04] <SFX-Bladerunner> lol, so much options..
[01:04] <Commander-Ape> SFX-Bladerunner: add your resolution
[01:04] <ignignokt00> so many* options ;)

[01:04] <ignignokt00> i think
[01:05] <SFX-Bladerunner> hmm
[01:05] <OmegaCenti> Can't... find.. anything definitive on tty terminals configuration, defaults, resolutions
[01:05] <Chadders> anyone got experience with ndiswrapper
[01:05] <Chadders> or perhaps installing linux drivers
[01:05] <SFX-Bladerunner> anyway, I also wanted to install pidgin, but the install guide on some website said I needed to remove gaim first from apps, but when I unceck it it says I need to use the synaptic thingy but then it says I need to remove ubuntu desktop cuz gaim is a part of it
[01:06] <cupps> Can someone help me connect wirelessly?
[01:06] <ReK_> cupps: what wireless card do you have?
[01:07] <cupps> BCM4306, and I've used ndiswrapper and got the driver set up for it.
[01:07] <cupps> But I can't connect to my wireless network.
[01:07] <Commander-Ape> SFX-Bladerunner: get pidgin from getdeb.net
[01:07] <ReK_> are the drivers working? see if you can do a scan
[01:07] <SFX-Bladerunner> hmm I really need to get irc working on ubuntu lol, im on windows atm =)
[01:07] <cupps> How do I do that (still new to ubuntu)?
[01:08] <Commander-Ape> SFX-Bladerunner: and remove gaim by System - > Admin -> Synaptic
[01:08] <Chadders> I have the same problem. Cant get ndiswrapper to work.
[01:08] <SFX-Bladerunner> I tried synaptic it tells me it has to remove ubuntu desktop too
[01:08] <Chadders> read the tuts. am lost.
[01:08] <SFX-Bladerunner> but somehow I have a feeling thats not a good idea
[01:08] <SFX-Bladerunner> (says desktop is dependent on gaim)
[01:09] <cupps> How can I tell if the drivers for my wireless card re working properly?
[01:09] <Chadders> bloody hard work this ubuntu
[01:09] <ReK_> cupps: wlanconfig ath0 list scan
[01:09] <Myrtti> SFX-Bladerunner: ubuntu-desktop is just a metapackage
[01:09] <ReK_> cupps: wait, sorry, that wont work
[01:10] <nonewmsgs> damnsmalllinux
[01:10] <ReK_> cupps: you want "iwlist ath0 scan"
[01:10] <Myrtti> SFX-Bladerunner: removing it shouldn't break up anything for a while
[01:10] <SFX-Bladerunner> so it is no problem to remove it Myrtti?
[01:10] <Myrtti> SFX-Bladerunner: some might arise when you're upgrading, but that's not that big an issue
[01:10] <Kimar> sonnect
[01:10] <mik9dt> for easy irc on ubuntutu, install "xchat-gnome irc chat"
[01:10] <rausb0> how can i pass module parameters for modules in initramfs?
[01:10] <Chadders> anyone good enough to walk me through this ndiswrapper or wireless config
[01:11] <SFX-Bladerunner> hmmm
[01:11] <cupps> ReK_: It says "Interface doesn't support scanning."
[01:11] <cupps> ReK_: My wireless card shows up under ndiswrapper and iwconfig, but not ifconfig. If that helps.
[01:11] <rausb0> cupps: you must do "ifconfig ath0 up" before scanning
[01:12] <ReK_> cupps: type iwconfig, do you see anything about ath0?
[01:12] <cupps> My wireless card is listed as eth1
[01:12] <rausb0> cupps: wait a sec, do you use a native linux driver or ndiswrapper?
[01:12] <farcl0ud> mine too cupps
[01:13] <cupps> ndiswrapper
[01:13] <ReK_> erm?
[01:13] <ahmed_> hi
[01:13] <ReK_> eth1 != wireless...
[01:13] <rausb0> cupps: then i don't know. i don't use ndiswrapper at all.
[01:13] <ahmed_> iam a new user for ubuntu
[01:13] <farcl0ud> I was trying to log into some wireless networks... all of them except one had password security
[01:13] <ahmed_> and i need a help
[01:13] <aliask> I run a multi-monitor setup. Is there any way for ubuntu to fake a single monitor resolution to a program? Games do not play well with two screens.
[01:13] <cupps> Well, having installed my driver with ndiswrapper... how do I get it to actually work? :P
[01:13] <ReK_> cupps: i dont know ndiswrapper either, but try scanning on eth1 instead of ath0
[01:14] <farcl0ud> ndiswrapper?
[01:14] <godtvisken> My wireless is listed as eth2
[01:14] <ahmed_> how can setup wine on ubuntu
[01:14] <farcl0ud> mine is eth1
[01:14] <ReK_> and do iwconfig eth1 up cupps

[01:15] <godtvisken> I am looking to compress a video, like shrink the file size a bit. Anyone know of a tool to do this?
[01:15] <rausb0> farcl0ud: ndiswrapper is a kernel module that loads a windows driver to use the wireless card. if you have a card that is natively supported by a linux driver, you don't need ndiswrapper.

[01:16] <rausb0> cupps: iwlist eth1 scan
[01:16] <farcl0ud> it must have a password then
[01:16] <farcl0ud> heh
[01:16] <Ucool> I know it doesnt
[01:16] <jrib> Ucool: how do you know?
[01:16] <Ucool> I made it
[01:17] <pixelation> Hey how does one go about setting the resolution to 1440x900?
[01:17] <jrib> Ucool: does it ask for a password on windows?
[01:17] <Ucool> prob not
[01:17] <jrib> Ucool: "probably not" doesn't really mean much
[01:17] <Ucool> I dont have windows
[01:18] <farcl0ud> pixelation, go to system... preferences... screen resolution
[01:18] <cupps> "Interface doesn't support scanning," rausb0

[01:19] <Ausicaemia> Anybody else have this problem with Azureus? I set it to open my torrents, but when I double click them it loads but does nothing.
[01:19] <jrib> Ucool: how did you create it?  Why even use rar anyway when there are open source alternatives?
[01:19] <Ausicaemia> Same deal in firefox.
[01:19] <pixelation> farcl0oud: is there any type of config file I can edit?
[01:19] <farcl0ud> then maybe your driver is bad or your hardware doesn't support it, pix
[01:19] <Ausicaemia> I physically have to go File > Open Torrent
[01:19] <aliask> I run a multi-monitor setup. Is there any way for ubuntu to fake a single monitor resolution to a program? Games do not play well with two screens.

[01:28] <jrib> mateo: you need to add the feisty-updates repo.  You know how to do that or want a little more detail?

[01:40] <battlesquid> how can i install oracle in ubuntu feisty?
[01:40] <jrib> OmegaCenti: virtual terminal?  tty?
[01:40] <OmegaCenti> jrib: virtual terminal? why is it called virtual?
[01:40] <Veinor> Because it's not an actual terminal.
[01:40] <OmegaCenti> what is an actual terminal
[01:41] <Pici> OmegaCenti: Probably because terminals used to refer to physical machines connected to mainframes.
[01:41] <mne> hikenboot, i would like to resize a ramdisk (/dev/ramN) during runtime. The ramsize utility does not seem to work, any hints ?
[01:41] <OmegaCenti> Pici: oh, thanks.

[01:41] <OmegaCenti> So which should I use for naming them. Virtual terminals or ttys?
[01:41] <Veinor> either; they show up in 'ps' and the like as tty
[01:41] <Veinor> like tty1, tty2, tty3

[01:59] <babo> supremesonic user_1, I managed to compleletly write off my networking capability by simply switching networks on the GNOME widget ... I've been trying to get my ethernet interface to work for 3 days now ( 2 ubuntu forum posts, 3 IRC calls for help, 1 day debugging on my own ) ... :-(
[01:59] <jrib> Ausicaemia: then it must be a different issue than what I knew about
[01:59] <babo> an OS shouldn't be that tempremental ...
[01:59] <NET||abuse> hmm, having terrible stability issues with democracyplayer
[02:00] <supremesonic> babo, is it wifi or wired?
[02:00] <babo> supremesonic: wifi
[02:00] <Ausicaemia> jrib, Well basically, the files are associated with azureus but when double clicked they don't get imported.
[02:00] <babo> I can't update my server now
[02:00] <Ausicaemia> Same happens from firefox, and command line path specification.
[02:01] <jrib> Ausicaemia: I just tried here and azureus core dumps on me if I give it the path to a torrent
[02:01] <supremesonic> babo, I don't know much about wifi, but I can try help anyways :) have it found your hotspot or maybe others hotspot?
[02:01] <babo> this sucks. ubuntu is pissing me off .. I even booted from a live cd and the interface still won't work. The same computer dual-booted to windows works fine though .... Sometimes I wonder whether all this linux hassle is worth it ...
[02:02] <supremesonic> babo, it is :)
[02:02] <NET||abuse> babo, remember, it's freedom
[02:03] <jrib> Ausicaemia: did you give the absolute path to azureus?
[02:03] <NET||abuse> babo, to quote some anoying american fellah,,, "the price of freedom is eternal vigialnce"
[02:03] <Ausicaemia> Yeah.
[02:03] <supremesonic> babo, somethings are hard in linux at the first. However when you get used to it, it is lot better. My friend is saying "windows is the best" and he hates linux, however he just bought a proram. and when its about to start its just disappears with no reason. And nobody can help him.
[02:03] <NET||abuse> umm, vigilance even.. hah,,
[02:03] <Ausicaemia> jrib, I even renamed it to something simple.
[02:03] <jrib> Ausicaemia: hmm, it works here when I do: azureus /home/jrib/torrents/foo.torrent     but not if I do: azureus foo.torrent
[02:04] <babo> supremesonic, I've been using linux full time in work now for 3+ years ...
[02:04] <babo> I also run linux servers ...
[02:04] <Ausicaemia> Yeah thats exactly what i did
[02:04] <NET||abuse> so anyone else having issues with democracy player? 0.9.2 i think, the feisty deb version
[02:04] <supremesonic> babo, then I don't think I can help you, im still pretty new, sorry :)
[02:04] <babo> NET||abuse, freedom for what ? to waste my time with an overly tempremental system ?
[02:04] <NET||abuse> babo, just cause you run servers doesn't mean you know didly :)
[02:05] <NET||abuse> babo, i run 7 or 8 servers at the moment,, all linux, and i donn't know crap!!!
[02:05] <user1_> is the wifi device in kernel dmesg?
[02:05] <jrib> Ausicaemia: what out do you get in the terminal?  Does azureus give any gui notification that a file was passed?
[02:05] <Ausicaemia> jrib, azureus /home/brendan/Desktop/torrent.torrent
[02:05] <NET||abuse> babo, that's the beauty of linux :)
[02:05] <Ausicaemia> Nothing to indicate that a file was passed.
[02:05] <NET||abuse> babo, at least there are resolutions to these problems
[02:05] <NET||abuse> babo, try getting a program bug worked out in windows when your not the devloper... hah!
[02:05] <babo> NET||abuse, right. It's not just me though. This is my fourth irc post, and I've had two ubuntuforums post. I'm used to dealing with linux 'issues' but this one takes the biscuit. And nobody knows how to help ...
[02:06] <NET||abuse> babo, azureus ralted issue?
[02:06] <Ausicaemia> Just spits out a bunch of "Loading Azureus.." boot message type things, and a java command argument setting memory limits.
[02:06] <fred> Ndiswrapper help anybody?
[02:06] <fred> #
[02:06] <Ausicaemia> Nothing else about paths.
[02:06] <babo> NET||abuse, no - ubuntu related issue ...
[02:06] <babo> wifi
[02:06] <NET||abuse> babo, sorry, explain to me one more time, i've had the ocasional issue with azureus and it is usually to do with the java install
[02:06] <NET||abuse> ubuntu related?
[02:07] <jrib> Ausicaemia: what version of ubuntu?
[02:07] <NET||abuse> babo, ahh, ok, what is the issue exactly? i missed it.
[02:07] <fred> I just cant get ndiswrapper to work in ubuntu.
[02:07] <fred> after reading every helpto i can find
[02:07] <user1_> i setup wifi in 30 seconds in windows
[02:07] <Ausicaemia> 7.04 Feisty.
[02:07] <user1_> :)
[02:08] <NET||abuse> user1_, i didn't have to setup wifi on linux,, it just worked
[02:08] <ignignokt00> k, someone please help with power management, my monitor turns off after 10 or 20 minutes, even though everything in screensaver/power management is set so it never turns off, and i commented out the DPMS line in xorg.conf
[02:09] <ignignokt00> i checked my bios, and there's no power management related to the monitor, nor does the monitor itself have any power management built in
[02:09] <ignignokt00> *phew*
[02:09] <user1_> NET||abuse, that's because you have no password for your network
[02:09] <NET||abuse> user1_, no i do,, i just had it in my keychain already :)
[02:09] <babo> NET||abuse, yeah, it just worked for me too until I tried to plug into the wireless network at the local supermarket ...
[02:09] <NET||abuse> ?? what happened then?
[02:10] <babo> Could not find information on interface eth1:avahi in /proc/net/dev
[02:10] <babo> NET||abuse, ^^
[02:10] <user1_> i setup my wifi easily too, but not in linux
[02:10] <fred> anyone good enough to help me setup my wifi?
[02:10] <NET||abuse> .... emm, ok,, so you wifi card stopped working one day when you tried to connect to a network somewhere else?
[02:10] <fred> walk me through it?
[02:11] <NET||abuse> fred, what chipset? is it internal, pcmcia or usb wifi?
[02:11] <user1_> how about you read a manual
[02:11] <user1_> which walk you through?
[02:11] <fred> pci realtek 8185 chipset internal.
[02:11] <NET||abuse> user1_, shutup windows hoar
[02:11] <ignignokt00> manuals can be hard to follow for noobs buddy
[02:11] <NET||abuse> I know it's spelled whore, but you don't deserve correct diction
[02:11] <strag> Hello.
[02:11] <ignignokt00> that's "hoar" as in "hoary"
[02:12] <ignignokt00> badum-psh
[02:12] <jrib> NET||abuse: be nice please
[02:12] <NET||abuse> jrib, :) ok,, will do, i just want to welcome in a these newbs rather than give them an icy reception
[02:12] <fred> I've tried the ubuntu help websites but until i grasp linux its like reading greek.
[02:12] <NET||abuse> fred, ok, so re my question..
[02:13] <NET||abuse> fred, what is your wifi type?
[02:13] <fred> it is a realtek 8185 chipset, pci card internal.
[02:13] <user1_> ubuntu is already newbie's distribution
[02:13] <mateo> Hi
[02:13] <NET||abuse> realtek,,, ooh, havn't dealt with em..
[02:13] <ignignokt00> user1: you aren't helpful, stop
[02:13] <mateo> how can I get alsa 1.0.14 with feisty ???
[02:13] <NET||abuse> jrib, see this user1_ fellah giving ubuntu grief!!
[02:13] <ajmorris_> user1_, actually it is for beginners and advanced
[02:13] <NET||abuse> user1_, go use gentoo then you snob
[02:14] <fred> On realteks site it does have linux drivers but havent a clue what to do with them either.
[02:14] <jrib> please keep the discussion support-related only
[02:14] <jrib> !offtopic
[02:14] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:14] <fred> i'm trying to use ndiswrapper with the windows driver.
[02:14] <NET||abuse> :) well i'm not sure about realtek, but if there are drivers for linux, they should be available through the restricted modules in your debs
[02:14] <user1_> i use whatever i want
[02:14] <fred> see your talking greek again. havent a clue what that means
[02:14] <user1_> that includes kubuntu, debian, windows, netbsd
[02:15] <NET||abuse> fred, don't use ndiswrapper unless the linux driver really doesn't work.
[02:15] <NET||abuse> fraco, ndis is just a bit of a hack, and will make your life feel dirty for mixing ms drivers with nice clean modular linux ones! :)
[02:15] <fred> I dont have a clue how to get the drivers onto the machine NET
[02:15] <user1_> ndiswrapper guarantee it to work?
[02:15] <fraco> ?
[02:15] <fred> just a load of files to me.
[02:16] <NET||abuse> fred, ok,, one sec.. have you done any updates to your packages in synaptics?
[02:16] <fred> Well I cant get on the internet so no.
[02:16] <ignignokt00> k, someone please help with power management, my monitor turns off after 10 or 20 minutes, even though everything in screensaver/power management is set so it never turns off, and i commented out the DPMS line in xorg.conf
[02:16] <NET||abuse> fred, ok,, to get this working start by plugging into a hardwire for this machine (laptop i''m guessing_
[02:17] <ignignokt00> i checked my bios, and there's no power management related to the monitor, nor does the monitor itself have any power management built in
[02:17] <ajmorris_> fred, which kernel are you using?
[02:17] <NET||abuse> fred, linux lives on the net, so connections are essential, if you want to get some more packages to help with an install , you need the internet ...
[02:17] <fred> I dont have a cable long enough for that. Using the laptop to talk to you. running xp. transfering files using usb stick
[02:18] <ignignokt00> fred: you cannot keep an up-to-date machine without the internet, as net abuse said
[02:18] <user1_> fred, is your device detected by kernel?
[02:18] <fred> yeah I see it when I type lshw
[02:18] <NET||abuse> user1_, evidently he has the device id with lshw.. see
[02:19] <NET||abuse> fred, what he will need to check is lsmod to see if the realtek driver is there
[02:19] <dotdashandy> Another question from me if I may. I've just done a 5.10 install. Is it possible to upgrade to 7.04 from my install CD rather than online?
[02:19] <NET||abuse> fred, if so, then your wifi is probably working,
[02:19] <ignignokt00> dotdashandy: no.
[02:19] <ajmorris_> fred, you're not using Gutsy are you?
[02:19] <fred> and now for some reason my son just turned the computer off and it hangs on boot now. ohhh it gets better...lol
[02:19] <NET||abuse> fred, what you need is network-manager for gnome.. it's the only way to work effectively with wireless
[02:20] <dotdashandy> ignignokt00: Well that certainly sucks. That means my alt install cd is pretty much wasted.
[02:20] <ignignokt00> dotdashandy:  on the bright side, cd-r's cost about 20 cents apiece :)
[02:20] <NET||abuse> ignignokt00, sucks about the screen thing
[02:20] <snipex> i got a problem with my mouse... it randomly stops responding and i have to unplug cable and then put it back in...
[02:20] <ignignokt00> NET, yes it does, any advice? :\
[02:20] <dotdashandy> ignignokt00: But download limit is much more expensive.
[02:20] <snipex> i suspect it is my mouse's problem, but it could also be ubuntu's fault
[02:21] <ignignokt00> dotdashandy: that's true, if it's really too much to bear, you can order a feisty cd for free with shipit
[02:21] <ignignokt00> mine came in about 2 weeks
[02:21] <NET||abuse> ignignokt00, trying to remember how i stopped my machine from doing that.. it would interfere with my beryl/compiz session when it went into lock screen..
[02:21] <dotdashandy> ignignokt00: I already did, but the machine is far too old for the Live CDs to function, hence why I need the text installer. 7.04 didn't work anyway
[02:21] <ignignokt00> dotdashandy: you can order alt cd's from shipit, can't you?
[02:21] <fred> kernel panic panic not syncing that mean anything?
[02:22] <F00BaR`> he
[02:22] <dotdashandy> ignignokt00: No. I don't understand why it's needed to combine the install and live CDs
[02:22] <F00BaR`> can u see me
[02:22] <F00BaR`> anyone
[02:22] <ignignokt00> NET: come to think of it, i haven't checked my beryl settings at all
[02:22] <Hobbsee> F00BaR`: yes
[02:22] <ignignokt00> dotdashandy:  i thought you could use the regular cd to install without x anyway
[02:23] <dotdashandy> ignignokt00: I couldn't get it to work, on 6.06, 7.04, along with Fedora 6 and 7. So if there's a way, I've wasted 12 hours trying to find it and didn't, and had to resort to the 5.10 install cd
[02:23] <bentob0x> what's the IRC channel for all DNS/Nameservers/Zone files etc
[02:23] <fred> is it possible to repair ubuntu?
[02:23] <ignignokt00> dotdashandy: what didn't work about it?
[02:24] <gordonjcp> fred: depends how you've broken it
[02:24] <ignignokt00> dotdashandy: what are the specs on the comp you're trying to install to?
[02:24] <gordonjcp> fred: kernel panics are pretty rare, equivalent (roughly) to a BSOD in windows
[02:24] <fred> i just tried the recovery console and it hung saying sync failure
[02:24] <fred> in kernel or something
[02:24] <user1_> kubuntu failed to install on my desktop
[02:25] <dotdashandy> ignignokt00: They'd all hang in certain places, and Fedora especially wouldn't get past "running /sbin/loader", Ubuntu would hang at loading OHCI, sometimes Ethernet (on the newer ones), and at strange places. Specs are Celeron 500MHz 256MB RAM, an IBM iSeries laptop.
[02:25] <ignignokt00> ah, that is slow, but alt cds should work ok with 256mb ram
[02:25] <ignignokt00> i don't know any more i wish i had more expertise, sorry
[02:25] <dotdashandy> ignignokt00: My thoughts exactly. I can put up with the slowness (I ran PPC Ubuntu on a 250MHz Powerbook), I just couldn't for the life of me get them to boot properly
[02:27] <ignignokt00> NET||abuse: still around?
[02:27] <ali1234> dotdashandy: you can install 7.04 in text mode
[02:27] <BienTienDOng> hello
[02:27] <dotdashandy> ali1234: I know, the option is there.
[02:27] <NET||abuse> ignignokt00, yeh, sorry, just in priv chat
[02:27] <BienTienDOng> co ai ko
[02:28] <NET||abuse> oh, fred left.. :)
[02:28] <ignignokt00> no prob
[02:28] <dotdashandy> ali1234: The real trick is trying to get it to boot IN to text mode. No matter what I tried, the statements that I use to get 5.10 running didn't work
[02:28] <NET||abuse> ignignokt00, so anyway.. how did i solve the black screen issue :)
[02:28] <NET||abuse> hmm
[02:28] <ignignokt00> haha yeah, i scoured beryl-manager and didn't find anything
[02:28] <ignignokt00> i'll pop into #ubuntu-effects for a sec
[02:28] <rendo> Everytime my computer crashes or reboots, my x configuration fails and I gotta re-run the nvidia driver to set it all back up again.  Does anyone know why it happens?
[02:29] <ali1234> dotdashandy: well assuming you dont mind waiting a looong time, just use the gnome services applet thingy to disable gdm service. then it will only boot up to text mode from that point...
[02:29] <dotdashandy> ali1234: Waiting a long time isn't an option anymore. I've got to pass the right statements in order to get into the text mode first anyway, before all this
[02:30] <BienTienDOng> License Information
[02:30] <ali1234> dotdashandy: then boot into single user mode / recovery mode and delete /etc/init.d/gdm
[02:30] <dotdashandy> ali1234: because I can't boot past bash right now, it all fails and drops me to an emergency terminal, or it hangs and then I have to hard reboot
[02:31] <dotdashandy> ali1234: Is it possible to start a text install from single user mode?
[02:31] <ali1234> dont know. i only know the pxe method
[02:31] <dotdashandy> ali1234: This machine is too old for pxe, I tried that a few hours back
[02:32] <ali1234> use a grub floppy
[02:32] <dotdashandy> ali1234: Laptop has no floppy drive.
[02:32] <ali1234> gah
[02:33] <Bassetts>  I have a  Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML Express, how can I get a higher resolution than 1024x768 as adding custom resolutions to xorg.conf does not work
[02:33] <dotdashandy> ali1234: and it can't boot from USB volumes, so that rules out my USB floppy and any usb key
[02:33] <rem> cd ?
[02:33] <hikenboot> mne, sorry no hints never used it
[02:33] <Crack92> hi everybody
[02:34] <ignignokt00> #ubuntu-effects is pretty dead
[02:34] <ignignokt00> NET||abuse: think of anything
[02:34] <ali1234> dotdashandy: remove the HD and install pxe capable grub on it
[02:34] <rem> external cd drive through printer port ...
[02:34] <rem> ?
[02:34] <ignignokt00> ?
[02:34] <Crack92> how i can see if nvidia drivers are activated?
[02:34] <rem>  remove HD seems like a good option 2 ..
[02:34] <NET||abuse> ignignokt00, ubuntu-effects is kinda dead while beryl/compiz reorganize into compiz-fusion
[02:34] <rem> did that with a laptop that had no fd or cd ..
[02:34] <dotdashandy> ali1234: The only way I could do that was through my dad's laptop which would be impossible seeing as I would like this machine to take with me tomorrow.
[02:35] <ignignokt00> NET||abuse: ah that would make sense
[02:35] <dotdashandy> ali1234: I might just stick with 5.10 and the OpenOffice it comes with, or just scrap it and go to Windows 2000 and Office until I can get something sorted out
[02:35] <NET||abuse> ignignokt00, I've had a look through my screen saver setting s and things and not found an answer just yet though :( also just trying to finish a wifi discussion in priv chat just now.. i'll be a few minutes
[02:36] <ignignokt00> on a sidenote, i'm using xgl and in my "exit" window, i only get "log off," "lock," "switch user," and "hibernate" and there are no "restart" or "shutdown" buttons like there are in gnome
[02:36] <ali1234> dotdashandy: actually you shouldnt need to remove the HD to install pxe capable grub if you already have 5.10 installed
[02:36] <ignignokt00> know how to enable "restart" and "shutdown" in xgl?
[02:37] <dotdashandy> ali1234: Well 5.10 is on there, and i'm 83% through the Configuration right now
[02:37] <ali1234> for that matter, the grub that comes with ubuntu might have network support compiled in
[02:37] <dotdashandy> ali1234: the only problem is my ethernet wasn't detected
[02:37] <a5benwillis> Should I be afraid to click the "Upgrade to Fiesty' button in Update Manager? I dont want to loose anything on my Edgy install.....
[02:38] <Crack92> there is any command to type to see if nvidia drivers are installed? scuse me for my bad english....
[02:39] <hawk> Crack92: cat /proc/driver/nvidia/version  will tell if the kernel part is loaded at least
[02:39] <twosouls82> cat /proc/drivers/agp or something alike Crack92, I am not on Linux now
[02:39] <Bassetts>  I have a  Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML Express, how can I get a higher resolution than 1024x768 as adding custom resolutions to xorg.conf does not work

[02:43] <Dabian> Where is the international channel?
[02:43] <ignignokt00> the topic doesn't say this is EN only, does it?
[02:43] <PriceChild> Dabian, there is a channel for each language... what language do you want?
[02:43] <khaled> and while I can see the wireless
[02:43] <PriceChild> Dabian, (or country)
[02:43] <ignignokt00> ah, ok
[02:43] <magnetron> Dabian: this channel is international, in english.
[02:43] <Dabian> PriceChild : Why is there a #ubuntu-de and not a #ubuntu-en?  It doesn't seem fair that you can only speak english in the international channel.
[02:44] <Dabian> magnetron : Thats silly, like the #ubuntu-de is international in german.
[02:44] <Dabian> oh never mind
[02:44] <PriceChild> Dabian, because the largest amount of users are english...

[02:44] <magnetron> Dabian: #ubuntu-de IS international in german

[02:45] <mateo> Hi
[02:45] <Dabian> PriceChild : Thats one explanation.
[02:45] <mateo> Im using a Intel ICH8 SoundCard
[02:45] <mateo> but it doesn't work with ubuntu feisty fawn
[02:45] <mateo> is there anything I can do ?
[02:46] <PriceChild> !doesnt work | mateo
[02:46] <ubotu> mateo: 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.
[02:46] <Pici> <3 that factoid
[02:46] <mateo> doesn't sound
[02:46] <mateo> alsamixer seems to recognize it
[02:46] <Dabian> PriceChild : Another explanation is that only people who either speak english, or has an active channel of their own language, gets help?
[02:46] <mateo> and the programs seems to play sound
[02:46] <PriceChild> mateo, are you sure you have the right soundcard selected as default?
[02:46] <mateo> but it actually doesn't sound
[02:46] <PriceChild> mateo, "/msg ubotu sound" for more help
[02:46] <mwe> turn up the volumes and make sure they're unmuted
[02:47] <PriceChild> Dabian, all languages have active channels
[02:47] <PriceChild> Dabian, afaik
[02:47] <mwe> especially master and pcm probably
[02:47] <kbrooks> Dabian, are you questioning the op's authority?
[02:47] <Dabian> kbrooks : Not yet :)
[02:47] <PriceChild> kbrooks, leave it out
[02:48] <kbrooks> PriceChild, all right.
[02:48] <khaled> anyone have a good trouble shooting page for wireless cards on laptops. the pages on the wiki haven't really been all that fruitful
[02:48] <Dabian> kbrooks : Leave what out?
[02:48] <mwe> PriceChild: well active is a strong word for some of them ;)
[02:48] <Pirate_Hunter> what is swap memory used for? why have it?
[02:49] <kbrooks> Dabian, PriceChild said that, not me.
[02:49] <mwe> Pirate_Hunter: because if RAM fills up it will be used
[02:49] <Dabian> Pirate_Hunter : Big question.  If you have RAM enough, you can do without it, but generally swap is a good thing to have.
[02:49] <mwe> Pirate_Hunter: it's like extra memory
[02:49] <Pici> !offtopic
[02:49] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:49] <Pirate_Hunter> mwe: so it acts like a support ram and how much should be its size
[02:49] <mwe> Pirate_Hunter: depends on how much ram you have
[02:49] <ignignokt00> what's the ratio of ram:swap you should generally have?
[02:49] <PriceChild> Pirate_Hunter, if you run out of ram/swap.... linux kills random processes evily... you don't want to run out.
[02:50] <mwe> Pirate_Hunter: and your user patterns
[02:50] <kbrooks> PriceChild, didn't know that.
[02:50] <Pirate_Hunter> mwe: my swap is 1Gb is that ok than? why that big i dont know but heck i thought it was a good idea
[02:51] <mwe> Pirate_Hunter: depends on how much ram you have
[02:51] <Pirate_Hunter> mwe: kl got that
[02:51] <mwe> Pirate_Hunter: and how many programs you plan to run at the same time and the type of the programs to name a few
[02:51] <kbrooks> sorry to be extremely picky, but linux doesn't kill random processes when memory runs out. if memory runs out, then the programs get a error message and exit.
[02:51] <mwe> Pirate_Hunter: how much ram you have?
[02:52] <Pirate_Hunter> mwe: swap is very good but why the heck didnt microsoft still this and implemented it into windows
[02:52] <ignignokt00> they did
[02:52] <mwe> Pirate_Hunter: 1GB is probably plenty in any case
[02:52] <ignignokt00> it's called a page file
[02:52] <mwe> Pirate_Hunter: they did
[02:52] <kbrooks> Pirate_Hunter, they DID.
[02:52] <ignignokt00> instead of using a separate partition, they use a file on the windows partition
[02:52] <kbrooks> Pirate_Hunter, what gives you the impression they didn't?
[02:52] <mwe> PriceChild: they call it paging I believe, though.
[02:53] <ceil420> if i run something from terminal, then hit ctrl+z to do something else with that same terminal, how do i get back to the original program?
[02:53] <kbrooks> ignignokt00, i'll just ask why....
[02:53] <Pirate_Hunter> mwe & kbrooks: when? Damn MS cant they  come with something original
[02:53] <a5benwillis> Should I be afraid to click the "Upgrade to Fiesty' button in Update Manager? I dont want to loose anything on my Edgy install.....
[02:53] <^aleta^> Does anyone know the username/password I can use to add a new printer via cup's htttp interface? My user name does not work...
[02:53] <PriceChild> a5benwillis, if it ain't broke don't fix it
[02:53] <burnerx> ceil420: jobs to show what you hide in the background
[02:53] <mwe> Pirate_Hunter: heh. well the idea is about as old as the invention of RAM itself
[02:53] <ceil420> i found out about the ctrl+z thing from vim (shite text editor imo, but at least i learned one thing from it), and that program told me how to get back, but i forgot how :x
[02:53] <kbrooks> Pirate_Hunter, they can't just slap swap on another partition.
[02:53] <ignignokt00> kbrooks: what?
[02:53] <burnerx> ceil420: fg # to bring it back
[02:53] <PriceChild> a5benwillis, no point in upgrading if its all working fine
[02:53] <ceil420> burnerx, ah that's it, thanks
[02:54] <kbrooks> Pirate_Hunter, they have to adapt to backwards compatibility.
[02:54] <a5benwillis> PriceChild: True, But FF has some nice wireless features. I can wait I suppose :-)
[02:54] <kbrooks> Pirate_Hunter, and that means putting the swap on the main windows  partition.
[02:54] <marvin> hi
[02:54] <Pirate_Hunter> seriously why is everyone upgrading im still using Drapper? is there a rason to upgrade OS
[02:54] <mwe> Pirate_Hunter: you still haven't told me the size of your RAM but I think 1GB of swap is probably plenty in any case
[02:55] <Pirate_Hunter> kbrooks: so thats how they do it I see, no wonder i didnt notice it
[02:55] <ziroday> Pirate_Hunter: new features
[02:55] <Pirate_Hunter> mwe: 512 on this pc but my other is 224
[02:55] <kbrooks> Pirate_Hunter, it is "better" than removing files and resizing.
[02:55] <a5benwillis> Pirate_Hunter: New driver support as well
[02:55] <kbrooks> Pirate_Hunter, but the solution is much worser than a dedicated swap partition.
[02:56] <ignignokt00> worse*
[02:56] <Pirate_Hunter> hmmm linux lovers saying good things about Ms, i never thought I would be reading this
[02:56] <ignignokt00> :)
[02:56] <ignignokt00> who said that?
[02:56] <kbrooks> ignignokt00, me
[02:56] <kbrooks> ignignokt00, i'm just weighing in.
[02:56] <kbrooks> ignignokt00, and no need to correct me ;-)
[02:57] <ignignokt00> kbrooks, haha, i know i'm stupid
[02:57] <mwe> Pirate_Hunter: 1GB is probably fine
[02:57] <Pirate_Hunter> for the next Pc im making swap 2Gb to make up for 224 ram which is poor but heck i dont plan in upgrading it anytime soon
[02:57] <ignignokt00> now where's #grammarnazis...
[02:57] <mwe> Pirate_Hunter: you could probably do with less but if you have enough space go for 1GB I'd say
[02:57] <brainiac> With what prog would I be able to mount iso files into a virtual cd drive?
[02:57] <kbrooks> Pirate_Hunter, by "dedicated swap partition", i don't mean FAT32 with the pagefile slapped on it, which BTW is horribly inefficient
[02:57] <ziroday> !virtualbox | brainiac
[02:57] <ubotu> brainiac: VirtualBox is open-source virtualization software for x86, with a proprietary "enterprise" version sporting additional features. Packages for Ubuntu are provided by the makers at http://www.virtualbox.org/ - Setup details at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/VirtualBox
[02:57] <ignignokt00> brainiac: don't use a program, use terminal
[02:58] <mwe> Pirate_Hunter: I see
[02:58] <Pirate_Hunter> mwe: yeha I have plenty of HD space on this pc and the other
[02:58] <andypandy> hi
[02:58] <|Xabbu> Hello, I try to set up Feisty with a console resolution of 1280x1024 (for tty[1-6] ). While installing this already worked, but now I can only use vga-values ob 0F00 to 0F07 instead of 795 or 0x31B. Somehow I think, that there is no framebuffer loaded... Can anyone help me?
[02:58] <brainiac> Will I find VirtualBox in the standard repositories?
[02:58] <Pirate_Hunter> kbrooks: hmm FAT32 how cool it was when it came out
[02:58] <ignignokt00> brainiac, that's not what you want
[02:59] <brainiac> How would I do that in the terminal?
[02:59] <kbrooks> Pirate_Hunter, only because it utilized the increased space
[02:59] <ignignokt00> brainiac, sudo mkdir /media/loop
[02:59] <mwe> Pirate_Hunter: I doubt it will ever use 2GB, though
[02:59] <andypandy> if i want to use the "dd" coomand to see my disk layout whats the command line please
[02:59] <Shyde> brainiac: you can just use mount, e.g. sudo mount -o loop isofile.iso mountpath/
[02:59] <ignignokt00> then sudo mount -o loop /path/to/image.iso /media/loop
[02:59] <brainiac> Thx folks, I'll try that...
[02:59] <Pirate_Hunter> mwe: i know but its just to be sure especially since Ill be using linux on it and will be touching VMware
[03:00] <mwe> Pirate_Hunter: oh
[03:00] <mwe> Pirate_Hunter: I doubt vmware will run with so little ram
[03:00] <kbrooks> Pirate_Hunter, in general, it is much better to create a _swap partition_ on any OS than to create a swap file over a existing filesystem. but shucks for the OSes that don't have dedicated swap partitions... </rant>
[03:00] <Pirate_Hunter> kbrooks: see i learn new things everyday :-)
[03:00] <m1r> Q: how to make my presentation start imidiately on desktop start, b4 gnome starts ?
[03:00] <Pirate_Hunter> mwe: wont the swap make up for that?
[03:00] <burnerx> how do i check the runlevels in ubuntu ?
[03:00] <mwe> Pirate_Hunter: if it will performance will such bad
[03:01] <mwe> Pirate_Hunter: suck even
[03:01] <kbrooks> Pirate_Hunter, yes, but it will be slower
[03:01] <burnerx> or edit the runlevels
[03:01] <kbrooks> Pirate_Hunter, vmware uses multiple ways to make the virtualization go "fast", so to speak.
[03:01] <Pirate_Hunter> kbrooks & mwe: damn I see I guess will have to fork up for more ram than... I was hoping to use that PC as my testing area for linux
[03:01] <|Xabbu> burnerx: you can edit the file /etc/inittab
[03:02] <mwe> Pirate_Hunter: a disk acting like RAM is _slow_. only idle things should be swapped
[03:02] <Pirate_Hunter> mwe: np
[03:02] <tuliox> !kpat
[03:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kpat - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:02] <burnerx> thanks |Xabbu
[03:02] <tuliox> how do i install solitary to ubuntu?
[03:02] <tuliox> ops, i meant golf card game
[03:03] <mwe> Pirate_Hunter: if you plan to be running vmware I'm afraid you need more RAM
[03:03] <burnerx> |Xabbu: i dont have the inittab file
[03:03] <kbrooks> Pirate_Hunter, with each purchase of RAM, you're helping the prices decrease.
[03:03] <ignignokt00> when you think about it, ram's pretty cheap as it is
[03:03] <Pirate_Hunter> kbrooks: :-) lol nice way to look at it rofl
[03:03] <kbrooks> Pirate_Hunter, so, don't be too stingy - RAM is expensive for a reason.
[03:03] <mwe> Pirate_Hunter: other things could run fine, though. internet and what not
[03:03] <ignignokt00> lol or not
[03:04] <ali1234> i run vmware on this machine with 256mb ram and it's fine
[03:04] <Pirate_Hunter> mwe: yeha true but heck I was hoping to use it as a testing area because I cnat be bothered messing my normal pc
[03:04] <xerox_5555> hellp
[03:04] <xerox_5555> hello
[03:04] <|Xabbu> burnerx: what Version of Ubuntu do you use?
[03:04] <ignignokt00> xerox, just ask
[03:04] <burnerx> |Xabbu: 7.04
[03:05] <|Xabbu> Can anyone help me to set up tty[1-6]  with a higher resolution?
[03:05] <Pici> !fb
[03:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fb - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:05] <ziroday> !rockbox
[03:05] <ubotu> rockbox is an open source firmware replacement for audio players from Archos, iRiver, Apple (iPod), and iAudio. See http://www.rockbox.org/ to get started!
[03:05] <Pirate_Hunter> ali1234: 256 ram and it runs nicely huh? how? kk but the other pc has 224 thats way below standards
[03:05] <PG> wich desktop recorder is the best one???????????
[03:06] <ziroday> !best | PG
[03:06] <ubotu> PG: 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.
[03:06] <kulka_> hi
[03:06] <kulka_> all
[03:06] <pike_> xange: gkdu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst add something like vga=0x317 to the end of the kernel line.  you can google for vga= values
[03:06] <mrigns> PG: recordmydesktop is my favourite
[03:06] <kulka_> how connect nokia n70 to ubuntu 7.04
[03:06] <kulka_> ?
[03:06] <ignignokt00> ziroday: warning: rockbox gets old after a while... having to boot every time you want to start listening rather than sleep/resume is annoying... just fyi :)
[03:06] <Stormx2> PG: You only need one question mark. A good start is recordMyDesktop. If you don't like it, try another one.
[03:06] <pike_> xange: er.. gksu gedit i mean
[03:06] <Pirate_Hunter> kulka_: I would liek to find that out as well the CD installation through wine is a nightmare
[03:07] <ignignokt00> ziroday: however, if i was dying to have an open source firmware to play .ogg's or something, it works
[03:07] <xerox_5555> >> /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom  >> paste pls
[03:07] <OmegaCenti_> No system beep. Any ideas?
[03:07] <PG> who can i get record my desktop
[03:07] <ali1234> Pirate_Hunter: well this machine has shared graphics so it has only 224mb too
[03:07] <Stormx2> PG: How*. Google it.
[03:07] <|Xabbu> pike_: I tried that with vga=795 and vga=0x31B but I can only choose between the values 0F00 to 0F07. And those values do not affact anything.
[03:07] <tinin> please, how do i change the resolution during boot? i've got a old monitor. Where's the file with the parameters?
[03:08] <roadfish> I did "apt-get install eclipse-jdt" and got the message "eclipse-jdt set to manual installed.". So what does this "... set to manual installed." message mean?
[03:08] <ziroday> ignignokt00: its either rockbox or converting all my music from .wma
[03:08] <xerox_5555> im not the change login screen config
[03:08] <PG> i knew that your say that^^^hehehehhe
[03:08] <ignignokt00> ziroday: .wma?  and i though .mp3 was bad.. :\\
[03:08] <Pirate_Hunter> ali1234: same as the other and works well with vmware nice, I was hoping to test Me/200 on that pc using vmware
[03:08] <variant> PG: istanbull is a great desktop recorder.. supports sound to
[03:08] <PG> thanks i look
[03:08] <Stormx2> ignignokt00: WMA actually has a better compression algorithm than MP3.
[03:08] <ali1234> Pirate_Hunter: by nicely i mean windows takes no more than 1.5x the amount of time to load up as it would if installed natively
[03:08] <PG> i have istanbul but how it records
[03:08] <ziroday> ignignokt00: i was ignorant at the time of ripping :(
[03:09] <PG> and where i can see thath records thing
[03:09] <ignignokt00> i heard that
[03:09] <Stormx2> PG: You might be better off asking in #ubuntu-de ?
[03:09] <variant> PG: start it and press the button on the panel
[03:09] <ignignokt00> stormx2:  now that i have the space i'd rather go flac myself :)
[03:09] <variant> PG: and when you stop the video it asks you to put a file name to save the file
[03:09] <PG> ok thanks a lot
[03:09] <Stormx2> ignignokt00: FLAC only works if it's already in lossless. I rip most of my music into FLAC.
[03:09] <PG> your great
[03:09] <magnetron> Stormx2: compare ogg vorbis
[03:09] <ignignokt00> stormx2: same.  however, we're OT
[03:10] <Pirate_Hunter> ali1234: as long as it works, i dont care much for windows anymore, i am closer to stopping using it for good, just wished certain apps worked in ubuntu i.e. my CD for my N70 and a few other things
[03:10] <Stormx2> magnetron: I don't know much about the ogg vorbis, seeing as I only have one album in it :)
[03:10] <magnetron> please join #ubuntu-offtopic we need some more nice ppl like you
[03:10] <Kprofthreat> Can I get someone's help to make a launcher for Sauerbraten's start script?
[03:10] <ali1234> Pirate_Hunter: nokia? i think there's a suite to sync it on linux...
[03:10] <ignignokt00> if my ipod could play ogg with the apple firmware, i'd convert everything in a second
[03:10] <PG> and what does it means record in 3d (question for istanbuk)
[03:10] <Pirate_Hunter> magnetron: lol thats so persuasive
[03:11] <Stormx2> ignignokt00: You'd be transcoding and lose quality. #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:11] <mrigns> PG: it's to record compostiting for example
[03:11] <PG> ah beryl
[03:11] <Pirate_Hunter> ali1234: hmm didnt know that I found the Mac OSX version but not pc suite for linux
[03:11] <Kprofthreat> I'm guessing that's a "no, screw you"
[03:11] <ali1234> Pirate_Hunter: well thats cos it is not official from nokia
[03:11] <dotdashandy> Hey guys, thanks for ALL your help throughout my 14 hour ordeal getting ubuntu on this laptop, it's running 5.10 nice and smoothly and i've got access to OpenOffice Writer, so mission accomplished. Thanks so much to everyone for being understanding while I bitched and moaned about things not working
[03:12] <Pirate_Hunter> ali1234: ;-) will look for it
[03:12] <ali1234> Pirate_Hunter: i think it's called gnoki...
[03:12] <Pirate_Hunter> Kprofthreat: why so much hate, be nice...!!
[03:13] <magnetron> dotdashandy: are you running 5.10? serious?
[03:13] <Pirate_Hunter> ali1234: thanx will look now for it
[03:13] <dotdashandy> magnetron: Yeah, it's all that I could get on here. It's not accessing the net, and all I want is to have a battery-powered writing machine, so yeah I am
[03:13] <magnetron> dotdashandy: why not 6.06
[03:13] <tekryan> Hi. I recently installed Ubuntu and have a Linksys Wireless Adapter WUSB54GSC. I talked with Cisco/Linksys tech support and they stated there was no way to use this adapter on the box. Is this true and if not what can I do?
[03:13] <oxxa> What usualy creates the admin group? i installed using debootstrap and i don't seem to have it
[03:14] <magnetron> !hardware | tekryan

[03:14] <|Xabbu> burnerx: Sorry, I wasn't aware, that feisty doesn't use init anymore. Read this for more Info:http://blog.mypapit.net/2007/03/where-can-i-find-inittab-in-ubuntu-edgy-eft-or-feisty-fawn.html
[03:14] <magnetron> dotdashandy: ok, nice that it works now
[03:14] <super-6-1> hello i was wondering where the picture folder is in linux or do i have to make one?

[03:16] <super-6-1> can some one tel me where the picture file is in kinux?
[03:16] <super-6-1> linux*
[03:16] <tekryan> I just checked that site and I don't quite understand, it says it "works out of box" ?
[03:16] <tekryan> What is that supposed to mean
[03:16] <magnetron> dotdashandy: there is "alternate" cd:s since 6.06 that just install ubuntu. no livecd.
[03:16] <prodigel> Hi. I want to install my webcam. Anybody  dealt with this issue till now?
[03:16] <Hazarath> Quick question, apps are crashing in Fiesty... where is the system log located? o.o;;;
[03:16] <magnetron> tekryan: it probably works then
[03:16] <super-6-1> tekryan you have a wireless card?
[03:17] <dotdashandy> magnetron: I tried the alternate for 7.04, didn't work. The installer CDs for Fedora 3 and 6 didn't work either, and they're text based. I just have a really picky laptop :P
[03:17] <tekryan> Yes @ super-6-1
[03:17] <ali1234> Hazarath: /var/log/messages
[03:17] <magnetron>   dotdashandy: nice that it works now though

[03:18] <prodigel> SpiderMonkey: What does it say exactly in the command line?
[03:18] <dff> ??!
[03:18] <super-6-1> do this go into manually input everything in to the network config
[03:19] <delcoyote> kill -9 (PID)
[03:19] <super-6-1> and restart
[03:19] <paolo_> Hi. how can i pipe a string to a process with a precise pid?
[03:19] <prodigel> Nobody knows about webcams in linux ??

[03:20] <SpiderMonkey> ive booted this CD successfully on another computer, so it mustve burned correctlu
[03:20] <delcoyote> not sure then dff
[03:20] <prodigel> SpiderMonkey: Do that. Might help
[03:20] <delcoyote> gottago
[03:20] <tekryan> Ok super-6-1. I will try that. Have to restart and go on other partition. Thanks
[03:20] <dff> yea neither am i
[03:20] <james_> how do i install kde in ubuntu
[03:20] <super-6-1> ok
[03:20] <delcoyote> ask away someone will answer your question dff
[03:20] <SpiderMonkey> hmm
[03:20] <Hazarath> ali1234, thanks, but, I fail to see anything in it about 'ktorrent'. Left the system running with it up, came back, it was dead. x.x
[03:20] <pike_> james_: it is a long and tedious process
[03:20] <super-6-1> ok can some one tell me where the picture file is on linux?
[03:21] <ali1234> Hazarath: well, every single app crash doesnt get logged to the syslog
[03:21] <pike_> james_: ready? sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[03:21] <james_> yes
[03:22] <super-6-1> any one know where the screensave for pictures where do i put my pictures in to get it to work
[03:22] <Hazarath> ali1234, so... what would I do to locate and see why? Then again, I DID tell the system to update when I left too, maybe it required to terminate the app so as to update a package it uses? o.o
[03:23] <OldPink> Hi All. :)
[03:23] <Hazarath> super-6-1, what are ya talkin' 'bout? o.O
[03:23] <ali1234> super-6-1: you can pick any folder you want in the screensaver settings
[03:23] <james_> pike seems it is working fine
[03:23] <Hazarath> super-6-1, oh, nevermind.
[03:23] <ali1234> Hazarath: no, you dont have to terminate apps to update. there is probably no log of the crash anywhere on your system
[03:24] <james_> pike it is 27 percent
[03:24] <james_> pike what do i do after it is finished
[03:24] <super-6-1> Hazarath, im the screensaver theres a  option to have ur pictures as a screensaver where do i put my pictures for that?
[03:25] <Hazarath> ali1234, not ME, but, maybe something else terminated it whilst the update was running, I donno.
[03:25] <Hazarath> super-6-1, I.. donno, I don't see a settings thingy. o.O
[03:25] <super-6-1> ok whats version of linux are you running?
[03:25] <ali1234> Hazarath: have you checked the obvious: file finished downloading, out of disk space etc?
[03:26] <ali1234> super-6-1: sorry, there is no option for it in the dumbed down gnome screensaver settings
[03:26] <Hazarath> ali1234, lesse... no, 40% done, and 100+GB free, that's not it, heh.
[03:26] <super-6-1> well can you tell me where the picture file is in linux?
[03:26] <ali1234> super-6-1: just looking
[03:26] <super-6-1> ok
[03:27] <ali1234> Hazarath: well, it's kde... did you see the kde crash manager window?
[03:27] <Hazarath> ali1234, no, when I returned, there was nothing up.
[03:28] <OmegaCenti_> Someone is telling me I should put an Xdefaults file inside of my home folder. is this safe?
[03:28] <OmegaCenti_> !Xdefaults
[03:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xdefaults - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:28] <jrib> OmegaCenti_: it's safe.. why do you need it?
[03:28] <OmegaCenti_> jrib: to install something like xvrt
[03:28] <lllllll> Anyone use Wallpapoz? I've installed it as per the instructions but now I want to know how to *run* it (new to ubuntu)
[03:29] <prodigel> Come on guys? Web cam? WEB CAM?
[03:29] <prodigel> It's getting obsessive
[03:29] <jrib> !webcam > prodigel (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:29] <jrib> OmegaCenti_: do you really mean "xvrt"?  not "rxvt"?
[03:29] <grimboy> I have a usb external hard disk. I right clicked it, went to the Volume tab and changed mount point to /media/media/ (a directory I had created) in the hope that it would always be mounted at that point when plugged in. After rebooting it is not mounted at all.
[03:29] <grimboy> Anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong?
[03:29] <OmegaCenti_> jrib: probably. for displaying nethack with decgraphics
[03:30] <Hazarath> super-6-1, I think there's an advanced thing you can do, you can, in essence, switch your desktop from X to... I don't recall what, but, anywho, it gives you preferences and everything for screen-savers, heck, it even gives you a lot more.
[03:31] <jrib> OmegaCenti_: don't know about that.  But 'rxvt' is packaged in the repositories.  Yes, you can configure it using ~/.Xdefaults (see the man page for rxvt or google for a sample .Xdefaults or .Xresources).  Do you know about APT?
[03:31] <OmegaCenti_> jrib: yes
[03:31] <jrib> OmegaCenti_: k, you should be able to install rxvt through APT as long as you have enabled universe then
[03:31] <Hazarath> My first attempt at help, and he leaves. x.x
[03:32] <jrib> Hazarath: don't be discouraged, there are plenty of others you can help :)
[03:32] <Rienzilla> Hey all
[03:32] <Hazarath> jrib, thanks, but, donno if I can help that many anywho, lol

[03:33] <viy> hi
[03:33] <ibm_> Hello word
[03:33] <tekryan> Do you need ndiswrapper for all wireless adapters?
[03:33] <ali1234> Hazarath: if you really want to know why it crashed, run it in gdb from the terminal
[03:33] <magnetron> Rienzilla: use networkmanager?
[03:33] <ibm_> 
[03:33] <Rienzilla> no networkmanager severely screws up my network config
[03:34] <ibm_> 
[03:34] <ibm_> 
[03:34] <ibm_>

[03:34] <wietz0r> jrib: Thanks :)
[03:34] <ceil420> what's shortkeys do?
[03:34] <ibm_> thanks
[03:34] <Hazarath> ali1234, explain please?
[03:35] <ali1234> Hazarath: first sudo apt-get install gdb
[03:35] <ceil420> can metacity themes use .xpm images in the draw_ops, or just .png? (or if there's a better channel for this question? :x)
[03:35] <ali1234> Hazarath: then at the console: gdb ktorrent torrentfile.torrent
[03:35] <ali1234> Hazarath: then at the prompt type "run"
[03:35] <jrib> Hazarath: looks fine, note that you want the 'rxvt-unicode' package for urxvt
[03:35] <dff> Where do i find some CHROOT tutorials?
[03:36] <jrib> !chroot > dff (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:36] <OmegaCenti_> jrib: you mean OmegaCenti_?
[03:36] <Hazarath> o.o;;;
[03:36] <jrib> OmegaCenti_: yes... I do.  Sorry Hazarath
[03:36] <Hazarath> No worries, jrib
[03:36] <OmegaCenti_> jrib: alright well I have rxvt-unicode installed
[03:36] <ali1234> Hazarath: then wait for it to crash, and it will tell you why
[03:37] <tealson> can I somehow configure acrobat-reader so that i am capable of printing with it? i have a kyocera fs1000+ but I dont know which device I have to use to print
[03:38] <jrib> OmegaCenti_: see this bug report though and update your file: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rxvt-unicode/+bug/65102
[03:39] <Hazarath> ali1234, guess all I gotta do now is wait.
[03:39] <ceil420> can metacity themes use .xpm images in the draw_ops, or just .png? (or if there's a better channel for this question? :x)
[03:39] <LiMaLiEd> Hi All!
[03:40] <OmegaCenti_> jrib: uh... it seems to be going over my head.. anyway to get DECgraphics to work in console or in the terminal used by default in gnome?
[03:40] <wietz0r> Thanks it works :)
[03:40] <jscinoz> Is there a decent linux alternative to the windows program ShortKeys?
[03:40] <bkudria> i have a dapper install i want to upgrade to feisty, but no upgrade option appears in the update manager.  what could be wrong?
[03:40] <Hazarath> ali1234, Er... it said the program 'Ended normally.' However, I just opened the app from my systray... it's still running normally. o.O
[03:40] <jrib> OmegaCenti_: just change URxvt to urxvt in lowercase
[03:40] <ceil420> jscinoz, what's shortkeys?
[03:40] <OmegaCenti_> jrib: uh huh...
[03:41] <F00BaR`> ty
[03:41] <jscinoz> Its a short macros program, basically you type two or three characters and it replaces them with a much longer string (eg i'd type ".ub" and it might replace it with "yay ubuntu")
[03:41] <sumigamer> guys this is a serious problem......when i launch the terminal, only the file, view, edit and other tabs show up. the user name and that other stuff doesnt show up....its completely blank, and i cant type anything in it. whats the matter??
[03:41] <ali1234> Hazarath: it must have detected it was alread running and just handed the url over to the alread running instance
[03:41] <jscinoz> it doesnt use copy and paste, it unputs it directly
[03:42] <ceil420> jscinoz, oh, that's not what i was thinking :x i don't know, sorry
[03:42] <jscinoz> Sumigamer, are you using beryl/compiz?
[03:42] <Vlet> I turned on vnc just before I left home, and set a pass (with no 'ask for confirmation'), and now that I'm trying to log in, it's giving me an authentication error... does the version of vnc that comes packed with ubuntu use a different protocol than the standard vnc client?
[03:42] <Hazarath> ali1234, Ok, I'm just gonna smile and nod to that, and hope it's ok. >.>

[03:42] <sumigamer> yup... i am using beryl
[03:42] <younghacker> ouch
[03:42] <jscinoz> tthanks bkudria
[03:42] <ali1234> Hazarath: sure it wasnt running the whole time, but in the tray?
[03:42] <jscinoz> sumigamer, do your other windows have decorations? eg titlebar etc
[03:42] <Hazarath> ali1234, No, because it was at like, 40% when I went to bed.
[03:43] <bkudria> jscinoz: it may be a bit hard to get running, i didn't document it very well.  email me if you have any questions!
[03:43] <sumigamer> no
[03:43] <younghacker> how do i enable th universe?

[03:44] <eidolon> part of 'linux-restricted-modules'
[03:44] <grimboy> Found solution to my problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-mount/+bug/107668
[03:44] <jscinoz> Sumigamer, do "gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" then in the screen section add "Option "AddARGBVisuals" "True""
[03:44] <lllllll> Thanks
[03:44] <Pirate_Hunter> in ubuntu whats the driver for usb - im being instructed to look for  /dev/ttyACM0, is that right?
[03:45] <sumigamer> jscinoz, with the quotes??
[03:45] <Dave_K> Stormx2, ^^ thanks of course, I know the channel. But they can't help me out.
[03:45] <ali1234> Pirate_Hunter: usb what?
[03:45] <jscinoz> not all of them it should look like this:          Option        "AddARGBVisuals"         "True"
[03:45] <ali1234> Pirate_Hunter: replug the device and type "dmesg" in terminal and it should tell you what new devices were created in /dev (if any)
[03:45] <Stormx2> Dave_K: I think that was for magnetron ;)
[03:45] <enriko> hi. have a problem with feisty and a logitech quickcam connect. gspca module is up but i can connect to it using ekiga or camorama

[03:46] <Pirate_Hunter> ali1234: ive downloaded kmobiletools and im trying to set i up to pick my fone from USB
[03:46] <enriko> saw different posts about it, but all were about compiling the gspca module
[03:46] <enriko> that i have
[03:46] <magnetron> Hazarath: it's easier
[03:46] <ali1234> Hazarath: if you have a supported card it is very easy
[03:46] <ali1234> Pirate_Hunter: okay. so plug in your phone then type "dmesg" and see what it says
[03:47] <Pirate_Hunter> ali1234: I dont get any of it and its just too long
[03:47] <enriko>  dmesg | grep cam

[03:49] <sumigamer> jscinoz, i dont get it in what way do i add that option thing.....there are only two columns
[03:49] <bkudria> jscinoz: it requires quite a bit of configuration

[03:49] <bkudria> jscinoz: may i PM you, then?

[03:51] <jscinoz> without the quotes
[03:52] <ali1234> Pirate_Hunter: did you unplug a usb drive to plug in the phone?
[03:52] <andypandy> please can the term "/./dev/static/dev" mean (this my ext3 10.3 gig partition)
[03:52] <Vlet> Is there any way to get a remove ubuntu system to start sshd if it's not running?

[03:53] <ali1234> Pirate_Hunter: if it's very new, it may still work
[03:54] <Pirate_Hunter> ali1234: i know PC suite does that in XP but in linux i was hoping kmobiletools would do it but it wants the device port
[03:54] <andypandy> can a "static" dev be partitioned?
[03:54] <ali1234> Pirate_Hunter: can you pastebin the output from "lsusb" while the phone is plugged?
[03:55] <Pirate_Hunter> ali1234: kk
[03:56] <ndee> I'm using the nvidia-glx driver from the official feisty repo. Can I now just upgrade to the latest nvidia driver from their homepage? or would that result in a conflict?

[03:59] <ali1234> Pirate_Hunter: according to that you only have a joystick connected
[03:59] <ackbahr> ZeroA4: Thanks a lot
[03:59] <Hazarath> sgruber, just ask ya question.
[03:59] <sgruber> i fixed my resolution, sort of, but now i can't get into gnome
[03:59] <ZeroA4> ackbahr, :)
[03:59] <Pirate_Hunter> ali1234: nah the phone is connected but not picking up which is weird
[03:59] <osxdude|laptop> logging is on...
[03:59] <sgruber> i needed to run 1280x800
[03:59] <Hazarath> sgruber, does your screen support that?
[04:00] <sgruber> Hazarath: yep
[04:00] <Hazarath> sgruber, what's up, then?
[04:00] <ZeroA4> ceil420, some icons are xpm so a guess you can use xpm for themes
[04:00] <pike_> sgruber: the login screen is up?
[04:00] <Pirate_Hunter> ali1234: it picked up now
[04:00] <sgruber> yeah the login screen works, though its scrunched into the center

[04:02] <leeyee> I was thaught I'm in #ubuntu-cn
[04:03] <ali1234> Pirate_Hunter: anything new at the end of dmesg now it's picked up?
[04:03] <Pirate_Hunter> ali1234: kk will paste it
[04:04] <sgruber> hazarath: much to my chagrin, my monitor lacks any adjustment that i think would be useful here
[04:05] <Hazarath> sgruber, my usefullness has ended, sorry.

[04:05] <mneisen> Hi, after solving my troubles with my boot partition (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/partman/+bug/122563 and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=484030) I still have a problem with unresolved dependencies when upgrading the kernel (see http://pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org/27769/). Anybody know how to fix this?
[04:05] <sgruber> y
[04:06] <sgruber> anybody else have any ideas
[04:06] <ali1234> Pirate_Hunter: okay see that last line about cdc-acm? that means it is probably working
[04:06] <GhostFreeman> Where does Ubuntu keep all of its theme icons?
[04:06] <GhostFreeman> namely the ones for Human
[04:06] <Whitor> How do I get the Windows Key to work in Ubuntu? on a laptop
[04:07] <Pirate_Hunter> ali1234: but whats the pat for the device so i can put it on ktools?
[04:07] <Hazarath> Aand... that would of normally been amusing, but... my ThinkPad internal PS/2 pointer went, and pretty much stayed, in 'heywire' mode, for lack of better terms; it was like, someone would move the courser in random directions, and click the left button randomly as well. o.O;;;;
[04:07] <stefg> !shortcuts
[04:07] <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
[04:07] <^la> hello, it was announced, that openvz is integrated into 7.04 release. do you know how to install it ?
[04:07] <ali1234> Pirate_Hunter: well have a look in /dev
[04:08] <sumigamer> guys when i restarted x it says that fatal error, no screens found. i now have to work through command prompt....help!!
[04:08] <ali1234> Pirate_Hunter: ls /dev/*ACM*
[04:08] <stefg> GhostFreeman: /usr/share/icons is containing the system wide icon themes
[04:08] <Pici> GhostFreeman: /usr/share/icons/
[04:08] <Pirate_Hunter> ali1234: i am what am i supposed to see there are so many files
[04:08] <GhostFreeman> thank you
[04:08] <Pirate_Hunter> ali1234: trhanx
[04:08] <troopperi> sumigamer: have you install beryl, compiz, or set your xorg.conf file
[04:09] <ali1234> Pirate_Hunter: now that it is actually detected, the default will probably work
[04:09] <xtyn>  i have a broken laptop and i need the data from the hdd, what do i do?
[04:09] <Whitor> stefg: its not a multimedia key... Its not that I don't know how to assign it to actions... its that the OS doesn't recognize it at all
[04:09] <sumigamer> yeah, well i have beryl, and i also edited my xorg.conf because my terminal wasnt working properly.
[04:09] <Pirate_Hunter> ali1234: u mean /dev/mobile
[04:10] <J_t_M> Hi guys, I'm trying to work out which version of the Ubuntu server disk I need to install on a Sun Fire 120 and 240. Can anyone suggest which one it is I need? Thanks
[04:10] <stefg> Whitor: It's often referred to as <Super-L> or <Super-R>
[04:10] <ali1234> Pirate_Hunter: no, /dev/ttyACM0
[04:10] <jacktheripper> there aer so many version sof ubunto, im leaing towarsd the muslim edition, praise to him, what are the differences?

[04:11] <younghacker> wow it seems as if my universe is enabled are those messages to enable the universe in order to apt-get certain programs just a recurring message
[04:11] <jacktheripper> where is the muslim edition channel?
[04:11] <Agip> dev/hda has been mounted xx times, check forced <-- what does that mean?
[04:11] <J_t_M> Agip - it's just preventitive... don't worry about it
[04:11] <osxdude|laptop> xtyn: of the old laptop, of course
[04:11] <xtyn> :)
[04:11] <xtyn> of course
[04:11] <Agip> ohh ok
[04:11] <xtyn> but what do i do?
[04:11] <m1r> i was wondering how can i make a presentation startup before gnome desktop loads to be able to lock screen with it, for example , right after usplash and b4 gnome desktop starts showing taskbars and icons?
[04:11] <stefg> Whitor: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/use-the-windows-key-for-the-start-menu-in-ubuntu-linux/
[04:12] <xtyn> i don't have a cable for it
[04:12] <troopperi> sumigamer: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:12] <Pirate_Hunter> does anyone know what would be nokia text encoding
[04:12] <toryl__> jacktheripper: #ubuntume on freenode
[04:12] <sumigamer> trooperi, how much data will it download,
[04:12] <jacktheripper> toryl__, no one is in there
[04:12] <jacktheripper> at all
[04:12] <troopperi> sumigamer: none
[04:13] <sumigamer> trooperi, will i lose beryl??
[04:13] <Agip> and how can I disable the boot options? I don't want to be choosing the system every time I start the pc
[04:13] <xtyn> osxdude|laptop: what do i do with the hdd?
[04:13] <troopperi> sumigamer: you should have configure your xorg.conf file that you should have start your x
[04:13] <jacktheripper> praise allah
[04:13] <jacktheripper> must find support
[04:13] <sumigamer> trooperi, i didnt get what you said
[04:13] <ali1234> xtyn: put it in another laptop and boot it. if it wont boot, use a livecd. then copy the files to a usb drive or a network share
[04:14] <troopperi> sumigamer: nvidia, ati?
[04:14] <J_t_M> Agip - edit /boot/grub.conf (it may not be exactly that file but it will be called grub.conf) and change the timer to 0
[04:14] <toryl__> jacktheripper: if you have a a question you can ask it here or in #linuxhelp and someone will probably help you.
[04:14] <xtyn> ouch
[04:14] <J_t_M> Agip - or 1 perhaps
[04:14] <sumigamer> troopperi, intel
[04:14] <xtyn> osxdude|laptop: difficult
[04:14] <xtyn> :)
[04:14] <sumigamer> and i didnt make any changes in the file for installing beryl
[04:14] <troopperi> sumigamer: ...wait.. i get some information of that
[04:14] <xtyn> osxdude|laptop: isn't there a special cable or something?
[04:14] <Agip> J_T_M: ok I'll try it
[04:15] <J_t_M> Good luck Agip :)
[04:15] <stefg> J_t_M, Agip : That's dangerous
[04:15] <Hazarath> Oh, how good is Intel based video cards on Feisty?
[04:15] <aer> alowww
[04:15] <projectstartrek> exit
[04:15] <aer> alow
[04:16] <stefg> Agip: rather edit menu.lst to 'default saved' and a svedefault statement after the maion entries
[04:16] <Pici> aer: ?
[04:16] <stefg> savedefault, that is
[04:16] <ali1234> xtyn: the alternative is a 2.5" external usb caddy or an adapter to connect it to a desktop pc
[04:16] <bronze> Do anyone know how to get a terminal as my desktop background, except for the devilspie script. It doesn't work for me.
[04:16] <xtyn> osxdude|laptop: ok, thx
[04:17] <Vlet> bronze: check out 'tilde'
[04:17] <bronze> Vlet, tilda
[04:17] <Vlet> ahh yah
[04:17] <m1r> i was wondering how can i make a presentation startup before gnome desktop loads to be able to lock screen with it, for example , right after usplash and b4 gnome desktop starts showing taskbars and icons?
[04:17] <stefg> bronze: Ugh, that would be tricky to work with. you could try tilda and sett it to fullscreen
[04:17] <Hazarath> I guess I'll check for myself. o.o
[04:17] <Agip> stefg: why
[04:17] <sumigamer> trooperi, you got something??
[04:18] <stefg> Agip: if timeout 0 for grub you have no way of recovering the system in the event of a failed kernel update, or other boot trouble
[04:19] <Agip> stefg: and were is  menu.lst located?
[04:19] <Agip> stefg: and were is  menu.lst located?
[04:20] <Agip> stefg: ops sorry for the 2 lines
[04:20] <sebrock> Portmap is trying to start twice on my boot... how can I fix this?
[04:20] <stefg_> Agip: /boot/grub/menu.lst ... read it twice and careful, it's well commented
[04:20] <projectstartrek> /boot
[04:20] <jacktheripper> sebrock, chmod -x /etc/rc*.d/*port*
[04:21] <troopperi> sumigamer: im searching
[04:21] <Agip> stefg: ok thanks
[04:21] <sumigamer> troopperi, maybe i should just use the command that you gave] 
[04:21] <triple_> heres a question
[04:22] <triple_> how do i get xchat to go to a default server at startup
[04:22] <jacktheripper> triple_, /j #xchat
[04:22] <troopperi> sumigamer: use this sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[04:22] <sebrock> jacktheripper, is that not changing ownership?
[04:23] <troopperi> sumigamer: and answer yes if its ask something
[04:23] <jacktheripper> sebrock, man chmod
[04:23] <sumigamer>   after i run the command will it do the rest automatically??
[04:23] <troopperi> sumigamer: yes..
[04:23] <sebrock> ok... em is there no way of taking it away from some bootlist instead?
[04:23] <sebrock> jacktheripper ^^
[04:24] <jacktheripper> sebrock, probably
[04:24] <sumigamer>  troopperi, thanks for helping a newbie like me. i will boot into ubunut and try it out now
[04:24] <jacktheripper> i gave you the linux way...gotta figure out the ubunto way
[04:24] <sebrock> jacktheripper, could you lead me to this instead
[04:24] <troopperi> sumigamer: ok
[04:24] <alesan> hi, how can I print from gimp? there is no print button or menu
[04:25] <sebrock> jacktheripper what is crw-rw--- when using chmod
[04:25] <sebrock> never understod that
[04:25] <Hazarath> Hey, is there a program available to restore files from a Windoze 'Settings and File Transfer' thingy?
[04:25] <Projectstartrek> alesan: save the image and print it through image viewer
[04:25] <Quicktabb> hi
[04:25] <m1r> help needed with program startup
[04:26] <alesan> Projectstartrek, that's not a real solution
[04:26] <robin_says_hi_> can anyone confirm out of the box support for SATA hard drives in feisty?
[04:26] <alesan> it seems I have to install "gimp-print"
[04:26] <SlimeyPete> robin_says_hi_: I can (though it probably depends on your motherboard chipset)
[04:26] <jacktheripper> robin_says_hi_, you mean the linux kernel?
[04:26] <stefg> robin_says_hi_: tht's not a question of sata, but of your mobos chipset
[04:27] <Hazarath> robin_says_hi_, I can.
[04:27] <bronze> Vlet, stefg, when using tilda I get error "GtK-critical"
[04:27] <Hazarath> robin_says_hi_, just look for 'ntfs-3g config' in the distros.
[04:28] <Hazarath> robin_says_hi_, And, disregard that.
[04:28] <Hazarath> robin_says_hi_, unless you got ntfs on it. o.o
[04:28] <robin_says_hi_> so i might as well give it a try then still have an old ide just in case :)
[04:28] <Hazarath> robin_says_hi_, it works off the bat.
[04:28] <stefg> bronze: so press F12 and see if you get a tilda window, click right and edit the preferences
[04:28] <robin_says_hi_> no im planing on purchasing a new sata drive
[04:29] <Ayabara> anyone using krusader? is there a way I can make it look more gnome-ish? like changing the fonts to be brown instead of blue?
[04:29] <SlimeyPete> robin_says_hi_: I'd suggest googling to see if your mobo's SATA chipset is supported by uuuntu, but in general Ubuntu plays nicely with SATA
[04:29] <bronze> stefg, What is editing the preferences going to help? I don't know what's causing the problem.
[04:30] <jacktheripper> can i install a vanilla kernel from kernel.org onto my ubunto machine
[04:30] <SlimeyPete> jacktheripper: yes.
[04:30] <jacktheripper> SlimeyPete, is there a howto
[04:30] <robin_says_hi_> @ all: thanks for the feedback
[04:30] <Hazarath> robin_says_hi_, No worries.
[04:30] <jacktheripper> SlimeyPete, for all the ubunto specific things i need to worry about
[04:30] <jacktheripper> i know how to build kernels
[04:31] <SlimeyPete> jacktheripper: just google for a kernel installation howto. The process is the same on Ubuntu as it is on any other linux distro.
[04:31] <troy_> Linux newbie needs help, I'm trying to make realplayer my default for watching videos on the internet, I have it installed but I'm not sure how to make it a plugin for mozilla
[04:31] <stefg> bronze: can be conflicting settings with being on top, or below. whatever, first configure it properly and see if the error persists
[04:31] <jacktheripper> SlimeyPete, have you done it yourself?
[04:31] <mariocesar_bo> Hi all, anyone can recommend a Image Manager like Picasa ( of course i don't want Picasa for Linux, :-) )
[04:31] <Pici> mariocesar_bo: Theres fspot
[04:31] <stefg> !info f-spot
[04:31] <ubotu> f-spot: personal photo management application. In component main, is optional. Version 0.3.5-0ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 1397 kB, installed size 7212 kB
[04:31] <SlimeyPete> jacktheripper: yeah... a while ago, though. It worked OK. I had to install gcc nd libc6-dev first though IIRC.
[04:31] <bronze> stefg, but what is "properlyl"? Should I edit the settings the way I want instead of the way I NEED?
[04:32] <mariocesar_bo> yea, but i am looking for other alternative. f-spot copy all my pictures on a folder. I don't want that
[04:32] <diego10> hola?
[04:32] <Pici> !es | diego10
[04:32] <ubotu> diego10: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[04:32] <stefg> bronze: the way you need it. the default setting might just not fit with your situation
[04:32] <diego10> pero este canal de que es?
[04:33] <stefg> !es
[04:33] <jacktheripper> SlimeyPete, what is evms and bootsplash
[04:33] <ikonia> enterprise volume manager, and bootsplash is the boot up splash screen
[04:34] <jacktheripper> like the starship enterprise?
[04:34] <troy_> does anyone know how to make realplayer the plugin for mozilla
[04:34] <ikonia> no
[04:34] <Pici> diego10: escribe /j #ubuntu-es or /j #ubuntu-pt
[04:34] <stefg> bronze: BTW i get that message, too. seems harmless, and if you add tilda to your gnome session you'll never see it
[04:34] <sebrock> does anyone know why portmap is trying to start twice at boot on my system?
[04:35] <sebrock> or how I can fix this
[04:35] <ikonia> portmapper on its own and perhaps being called by something like nfs
[04:36] <bronze> stefg, so can you help me to configure tilda so that it shows as a transparent console fullscreen on desktop 3?
[04:36] <ikonia> tilda is a key
[04:36] <bronze> something like this : http://img336.imageshack.us/img336/378/desktopterminal0uz.png
[04:36] <troy_> does anyone know how to make realplayer the plugin for mozilla
[04:36] <jacktheripper> SlimeyPete, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild  wow....that is nothing like compiling a kernel on a normal distro
[04:37] <pike_> jacktheripper: i hate that page
[04:37] <mrfeetio> whats a normal tempature for a notebook pc?
[04:37] <dr_willis> mrfeetio,  you mean for the CPU on a notebook?
[04:37] <jacktheripper> pike_, fakeroot debian/rules binary
[04:37] <jacktheripper> wth kind of command is that to build a kernel
[04:37] <ShackJack> HI all - looking at putting Feisty on an Athlon 3400 vwith onboard Nvidia 6600... Anybody advise me of any pitfalls with regards to 64-bit processors and/or Nvida onboard graphics?
[04:37] <stefg> bronze: you just set it up to be 'not on top' and being the size of your desktop, open it on desktop 3 and save your gnome session and
[04:38] <toryl__> troy_: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Changing_media_handling_behaviour
[04:38] <mrfeetio> dr_willis"yeah
[04:38] <dr_willis> ShackJack,  theres no need to use the 64bit distrubition of ubuntu. Unless you have special needs.
[04:38] <Ze_M> i have deleted and readded a user but now says doesnt belong to passwd and i cant enter admin mode
[04:38] <mrfeetio> dr_willis: yeah
[04:38] <dr_willis> ShackJack,  shouldent have any issues.
[04:38] <Ze_M> how can i resolve this?
[04:38] <dr_willis> ShackJack,  with the normal 32bit version.
[04:38] <jacktheripper> make-kpkg --rootcmd fakeroot --initrd --append-to-version=-some-string-here kernel-image kernel-headers
[04:38] <Ze_M> i have deleted and readded a user but now says doesnt belong to passwd and i cant enter admin mode,how can i resolve this?
[04:38] <ShackJack> dr_willis: But the 64 bit version has issues, you are saying?
[04:38] <zax1> any one know the irc channel for WAMP ?
[04:39] <dr_willis> ShackJack,  yes. it has several issues.
[04:39] <stefg> Ze_M: seems you are locked out. Boot to single mode (so you are root) and issue 'adduser <username> admin' to get it to the admin group
[04:39] <MitchM> I can not see the taskbar in KDE (Kubuntu) -- none of the items are found there.
[04:39] <MitchM> Any ideas?
[04:39] <Enanoe> #ubuntu-nl
[04:40] <MitchM> this is only for minimized/open windows
[04:40] <osxdude|laptop> zax1: #wamp
[04:40] <MitchM> the regular buttons are still there (such as my menu)

[04:40] <zax1> osxdude|laptop: no it aint

[04:45] <AeroTwelve> Hey everyone. I have an Seagate External Hard drive that I'm trying to get working with Ubuntu. I can mount it and Ubuntu recognizes it fine, but it says it's only read only, even when I'm in root. Any help is appreciated.
[04:45] <stefg> mesut: ?? Don't get what you mean...
[04:45] <gyzmodo> dial-up?
[04:45] <Pici> mesut: xwininfo
[04:45] <pike_> AeroTwelve: its likely ntfs.
[04:46] <dr_willis> AeroTwelve,  let me guess.. its a NTFS partition. :)
[04:46] <pike_> !ntfs-3g | AeroTwelve
[04:46] <ubotu> AeroTwelve: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[04:46] <natbet> anyone know why network-manager-gnome won't connect to an unsecured wireless network? It just tries but never connects.
[04:46] <jacktheripper> natbet, maybe it is secured by mac addresses
[04:46] <AeroTwelve> Yep, that's right, it is in NTFS. Is writing to NTFS still experimental and prone to data loss?
[04:46] <stefg> natbet: because network manager is a pile of bugs /rant off
[04:46] <greg_g> join #linuxhelp
[04:46] <mesut> thanks Pici but i dont see application_name
[04:46] <Music_Shuffle> !ntfs | AeroTwelve
[04:46] <ubotu> AeroTwelve: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[04:46] <pike_> AeroTwelve: id confider reformating it fat32 though itll make it alot less painful to use in linux
[04:47] <greg_g> ignore that (obviously)
[04:47] <pike_> AeroTwelve: consider :)
[04:47] <ShackJack> natbet: Try restarting dbus (just a shot)... /etc/init.d/dbus restart

[04:47] <dr_willis> !ext2

[04:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ext2 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:47] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing using fuse here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse

[04:47] <ubotu> ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[04:47] <jacktheripper> natbet, i dont know then
[04:47] <natbet> stefg: I agree, any other options for wpa networks?
[04:47] <jacktheripper> i avoid linux + wireless
[04:48] <akinax> Any Helpful tips if Flash has no sound?
[04:48] <mesut> Pici, yeah best way is xprop,but it is sometimes wrong, ie it cant say application_name for gnome-terminal
[04:48] <jacktheripper> akinax, add user to audio group
[04:48] <AeroTwelve> Alright, I'll probably go that route. Thanks, Pike.
[04:48] <Gnea> akinax: kill off any other sound apps
[04:48] <stefg> natbet: uninstall network manager and try to get wpa supplicant to work
[04:48] <dn4> Is there a reason why my ubuntu box is getting a huge circle over kentuky with this website: http://radar.weather.gov/ridge/Conus/full.php
[04:48] <natbet> ShackJack: I've tried that, it only helps if network manager won't find wireless networks, otherwise it just does the spinny circley thing and doesn't connect
[04:48] <akinax> jacktheripper: The Flash?
[04:48] <mesut> Pici, to be spesific,i was using "Terminal", but when i changed default locale,it seems application name of gnome_terminal is also changed :\
[04:49] <natbet> stefg: manually editing wpasupplicant.conf and adding it to /etc/networking/interfaces right?
[04:49] <akinax> Gnea: huh?
[04:49] <lllllll> Can somebody give me a brief explanation of what's in /dev/ ? I want to find my hard disk in there
[04:49] <Gnea> akinax: kill off any other sound apps.
[04:49] <stefg> natbet: along that lines.... (no specialist for that, still trusting to copper)
[04:49] <jacktheripper> dn4, that is what is on the web, its the server not the client
[04:49] <natbet> lllllll: it's the device folder
[04:49] <jacktheripper> thats the real data apparently
[04:49] <Gnea> akinax: flash is trying to access the sound device, which something else probably has a hold of
[04:50] <akinax> lllllll: It's the Device folder Anything which exists in the real world is in there
[04:50] <dn4> jacktheripper, :) interesting
[04:50] <lllllll> how would I find my hard disk in there?
[04:50] <natbet> stefg: yeah, that's how I used to do it in dapper, I had hoped that network manager would be better in feisty. copper?
[04:50] <akinax> Gnea: Should I do a lsof on something?
[04:50] <jacktheripper> dn4, apparently the radar there is on the fritz....
[04:50] <intangir> how can i install a ton of 32bit libs on a 64bit machine? for running 32bit apps?
[04:50] <akinax> lllllll: It will either be hd<something> or sd<something>
[04:50] <stefg> natbet: good'ole copper cable :-)
[04:50] <intangir> i need 32bit motif libs on a 64bit machine
[04:50] <jacktheripper> dn4, because it isnt raining outside :)
[04:50] <osxdude|laptop> lllllll: You cannot access it from there. You har disk should be either at "/" or "/media/"
[04:51] <Gnea> akinax: libasound
[04:51] <pike_> lllllll: dev just to look through it is a pain these days. theres alot of crap in there thanks to udev. sudo fdisk -l will tell you about hard drives
[04:51] <jacktheripper> intangir, install a 32-bit distro
[04:51] <natbet> stefg: I agree, I usually use that but sometimes you're in a coffee shop that only has wireless *sigh*
[04:51] <intangir> jacktheripper: i already have it as a 64bit distro
[04:51] <dn4> jacktheripper, wonder what causes that type of output hmm
[04:51] <jacktheripper> intangir, good luck then
[04:51] <jacktheripper> dn4, broken radar
[04:51] <Charles_Xavier> Hi, did anyone else upgrade the new nvidia glx today
[04:51] <jacktheripper> a plastic bag over the radar
[04:51] <jacktheripper> something
[04:52] <lllllll> I'm trying to copy my MBR, but I need to know whether its hda or sda. It looks like sda, but there are about 10 different labels like that
[04:52] <akinax> ahh I should mention this is gnash on 64bit Ubuntu
[04:52] <lllllll> Never mind, I think I've got it
[04:52] <jacktheripper> lllllll, get both of them.... and look at them with a hex editor and delete the one that isnt your mbr
[04:52] <dn4> jacktheripper, might need to call them up and ask
[04:52] <jacktheripper> lllllll, or type mount to figure out which is really your root
[04:52] <akinax> The easiest way is to look at grub
[04:52] <osxdude|laptop> MBP, you mean,lllllll
[04:53] <akinax> or type mount
[04:53] <Charles_Xavier> Hello, I have a Pentium 4 3.60ghz w/ HT (LGA 775) - In windows it showed the full 3.6ghz, but in ubuntu, it is underclocking it to 2.8ghz and forces my multiplier down to 14x, it was originally 18x - Any ideas??
[04:53] <lllllll> Yep. Whatever GRUB boots out of, anway
[04:53] <lllllll> Cheers
[04:53] <jacktheripper> Charles_Xavier, intel + microsoft are friends
[04:53] <Charles_Xavier> Yes, but that should not underclock my cpu
[04:53] <jacktheripper> intel has been bloating clock speeds for years
[04:53] <osxdude|laptop> Xavier: either windows is lying, or ubuntu is lying
[04:53] <Charles_Xavier> if I use ubuntu
[04:54] <Charles_Xavier> Windows is not lying lol
[04:54] <\x6e\x65\x72\x64> Charles_Xavier, do you have speedstep enabled?
[04:54] <jacktheripper> windows just reports it differently, you got taken for a fool!
[04:54] <Charles_Xavier> What is speedstep
[04:54] <snake> hi all
[04:54] <\x6e\x65\x72\x64> Charles_Xavier, try running something cpu intensive
[04:54] <\x6e\x65\x72\x64> and see if your clock returns to normal
[04:54] <stefg> Charles_Xavier: either an acpi issue, or the clever powernowd only clocks it up when needed
[04:54] <Charles_Xavier> Ive tried 2 windows versions, XP and 2000, and they both showed 3.6
[04:54] <Charles_Xavier> EVEN slackware showed 3.6
[04:54] <snake> i just resized the linux partition and now when i boot it says grub loading, please wait Error 22
[04:55] <Charles_Xavier> but only ubuntu is showing 2.8
[04:55] <Charles_Xavier> I do not know why
[04:55] <jacktheripper> dn4, its fixed now

[04:55] <Charles_Xavier> no nothing offensive
[04:55] <Charles_Xavier> I'm just comparing to a linux
[04:55] <Charles_Xavier> because you said microsoft and intel were friends

[04:55] <jacktheripper> ubuntu is not slackware
[04:56] <Antoni> hi everybody
[04:56] <Charles_Xavier> yes, I know, but you said microsoft and intel are friends, but I'm replying that slackware showed 3.6, so its not a problem with linux itsself
[04:56] <jacktheripper> dn4, yeah...id have to guess these things happen daily momentarily
[04:56] <Charles_Xavier> I think a driver in ubuntu might be underclocking it
[04:56] <jacktheripper> Charles_Xavier, lol :) good call

[04:57] <shavex> so lets say ever sence i have had ubuntu i cannot get sound... i installed OSS and i have tried changing settings to conexant but nothing works
[04:57] <Charles_Xavier> shavex i had the same problem
[04:57] <Charles_Xavier> ITS SO SIMPLE
[04:57] <Charles_Xavier> go to terminal type alsamixer
[04:57] <Charles_Xavier> and unmute the sound
[04:58] <dn4> jacktheripper, or the datasets of the radar were taken offline :P
[04:58] <Charles_Xavier> Do you see where the blue [M] [M]  are ?

[04:58] <jacktheripper> lol
[04:58] <Charles_Xavier> all of them
[04:58] <dn4> jacktheripper, sweet i've taken screen shots of the progression of that
[04:58] <shavex> ok
[04:58] <Charles_Xavier> shavex does it work?
[04:58] <dn4> jacktheripper, maybe they are radar farts or something

[05:00] <Teraano> hi hi. Anyone ipod nano in ubuntu?
[05:00] <dn4> jacktheripper, hahaa dude make it seem like it is ubuntu related LOL
[05:01] <stefg> Hazarath: not really, because these settings won't work on ubuntu anyway
[05:01] <jacktheripper> dn4, im on winblows
[05:01] <alesan> jacktheripper, which irc client are you using on windows?
[05:01] <jacktheripper> xchat
[05:01] <wuzzie> hi
[05:01] <Hazarath> stefg, Nono, I just want the files. I gotta lotta data backed up.
[05:01] <wuzzie> i have a question
[05:01] <iphv37> people, i'll format the entire disk and install ubuntu! but how many partitions should i make? / /var /temp /home swap  ....
[05:02] <alesan> is there a xchat for windows? I thought they dropped it
[05:02] <megasquid> anyone know where i can get a good dedicated ubuntu server?
[05:02] <Charles_Xavier> 1 min
[05:02] <JDStone> megasquid: serverpronto.com
[05:02] <Hazarath> alesan, there is, just gotta pay for it.
[05:02] <Charles_Xavier> \x6e\x65\x72\x64 it says acces denied
[05:02] <jacktheripper> alesan, its free
[05:02] <Charles_Xavier> let me try sudo 1 sec
[05:03] <jacktheripper> search for xchat silverex

[05:03] <pike_> iphv37: i prefer / /home and swap  maybe /temp as seperate xfs but that can be a pain if you dont allocate enough space for it
[05:03] <wuzzie> my computer only supports 800x600 and one of the option panes is too big. How can i move or resize it so I can reach the bottom?

[05:04] <stefg> Hazarath: so search win-forums for info on that format,,,, it's very likely proprietary
[05:04] <Charles_Xavier> im using

[05:04] <CyD> dray, you are restarting the samba server after making config changes?

[05:08] <Hazarath> stefg, Ok, so, how will this help me, they seem to use Windows, not ubuntu. x.x
[05:08] <ali1234> Teraano: some of them look like ipod nanos. the generic name is "s1mp3" but they are sold under many names
[05:09] <Obfuscator> that is, hibernate problems after resizing the swap partition

[05:09] <jacktheripper> Obfuscator, did you run mkswap?
[05:09] <Ancient1> why sudo -s says authentication failed when I try to run a script using the SAME L:P I put in during intsall ?
[05:09] <Charles_Xavier> find /sys -name scaling_cur_freq
[05:09] <Charles_Xavier> its not showing anything
[05:10] <Teraano> ali1234: Okay thank you!  yeah, im thinking of buying some.  And theres such a hype about that ipod nano. And sure, it looks good and all. But i want it to work well under linux. As that is all i use now.
[05:10] <\x6e\x65\x72\x64> Charles_Xavier, is cpu power management enabled in bios?
[05:10] <Teraano> ali1234: I saw that there was this iTunes program thingie for those ipods.
[05:10] <osxdude|laptop> dn5: that's hilarious
[05:10] <jacktheripper> nothing from apple will work well under linux
[05:10] <Teraano> jacktheripper: why?
[05:10] <aer> helo
[05:10] <ali1234> Teraano: you have to be careful when buying them especially on ebay, as they are often sold with bad flash chips or hacked to look like they have more space than the chip actually has
[05:10] <aer> helo
[05:10] <jacktheripper> Teraano, there is no itunes for linux
[05:10] <Obfuscator> jacktheripper, nice nick :D i've run mkswap, got a new vol_id (double checked with vol_id), done swappon -va, got the UUID, pasted it in fstab and the resume-file. Also tried with /dev/sda5 directly, bypassing UUIDS. No luck
[05:10] <aer> helo
[05:10] <Charles_Xavier> no its not
[05:10] <Teraano> jacktheripper: ftkpod seamed to work just as well as itunes.
[05:10] <Teraano> jacktheripper: gtkpod*
[05:10] <stefg> Hazarath: i can't really help. The problem is that you'll have to find out what this *.bin format is about if you want to find a trick to get the files in it. *bin can mean anything, but i'm suspecting it's just some M$-format which is unreadable for anything that's not windows
[05:10] <\x6e\x65\x72\x64> Charles_Xavier, try enabling it

[05:11] <akinax> stefg: TOO FAST FOR YOU :)
[05:11] <Charles_Xavier> let me reboot
[05:11] <akinax> Whoops
[05:12] <Teraano> jacktheripper: :) me neither, utill just a min ago. still figuring it out tho.
[05:12] <Hazarath> o.o
[05:12] <Teraano> pike_: true.  What software are you using to get your music on there?  That gtkpod program, yes?
[05:12] <jacktheripper> Obfuscator, so like...you rebooted?
[05:12] <Charles_Xavier> \x6e\x65\x72\x64 also, ill try the bios, but another question - i installed wine, and then uninstalled it using apt-get remove, but it still shows signs that its installed, such as there is still c\windows\wine and a lot of files created by wine. Its also listed when I type find
[05:12] <Obfuscator> jacktheripper, yes the swap is double the ram size (4 GB, got 2 GB ram)
[05:12] <Charles_Xavier> is there anyway to completely remove it
[05:13] <\x6e\x65\x72\x64> yes Charles_Xavier, reinstall it then type sudo apt-get remove --purge wine
[05:13] <\x6e\x65\x72\x64> Charles_Xavier, and then type rm -rf ~/.wine
[05:13] <Charles_Xavier> ty
[05:13] <jacktheripper> Obfuscator, does dmesg give you any hints?
[05:13] <jacktheripper> before or after it screws up...if thats possible to check
[05:14] <Obfuscator> jacktheripper sory, got desynched :D And yes, rebooted, restarted motd etc etc.. I tried to look in dmesg, but dunno what do grep for
[05:14] <ultm8> hi people.... i need your help big time... i have a geforce nvidia gts 8800
[05:14] <ultm8> and for some reason can no longer install the drivers
[05:14] <jacktheripper> Obfuscator, so does it crash when you resume?
[05:14] <pike_> Teraano: gtkpod yeah. only issue is that sometimes i have to go into the ipod directory and cp config.bak config  <- thats not the real filename. also in gtkpod the playlists need to be near the top when you create em or they dont show up on the ipod. those are the only issues i had and i had a hell of a time with the second because i didnt find any documentation on it. it works well now and i prefer gtkpod to itunes soft
[05:14] <ultm8> can any 1 help me?
[05:15] <Charles_Xavier> \x6e\x65\x72\x64 thank you a lot sir, you have been so helpful, I am going to reboot and see if i can change anything in bios, and then i will be back with the update
[05:15] <Charles_Xavier> brb
[05:15] <megasquid> anyone know where i can get a good dedicated ubuntu server?
[05:15] <Hazarath> Oh, just fyi: I've confirmed it, ktorrent is TOTALLY by-passing my ISP's 'traffic shaping' crap, I just hit maximum downloading speed, and it's almost stable. ^^
[05:15] <Obfuscator> jacktheripper, no just boots as if nothing happened. For a while i kept getting corrupt swap, but thats not happening anymore. Don't know if thats good or bad :(
[05:15] <dn4> ultm8, don't ask to ask ever again
[05:15] <ultm8> dn4: ? what?
[05:15] <dn4> ultm8, just ask the question you need help with
[05:15] <stefg> !ask | ultm8
[05:15] <ubotu> ultm8: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:15] <jacktheripper> Obfuscator, do swapoff, try to redo mkswap (with bad block checking), then reboot.... :p
[05:15] <jacktheripper> try one more time
[05:16] <jacktheripper> make sure you dont mkswap an important fs
[05:16] <Obfuscator> jacktheripper ok brb thanks
[05:17] <ultm8> ok... well i installed updated my feisty fawn, and after reboot i was greeted by the xserver crash screen
[05:17] <Teraano> pike_: Thanks a bunch man.  I just might go for it. Size is good, battery hours looks good. And you, have it working quite well gives me more intrest in that one so..  Thanks.
[05:17] <d3v1l88> hi
[05:17] <WauWieLein> hi
[05:17] <ultm8> i tried reinstalling the nvidia drivers from the site
[05:17] <Obfuscator> jacktheripper before I start i wanted to say that the swap is working already, retry anyway?
[05:17] <manitou_> hi ! how to auto mount ata HD ? i have system on sata and 1 extra ATA !
[05:17] <ultm8> xserver crash
[05:17] <pike_> Teraano: np. i hate the proprietary stuff but the ipod interface.. you cant really beat it right now
[05:17] <WauWieLein> Can someone say me, how to restart the Soundserver?Privat please
[05:17] <jacktheripper> Obfuscator, well, it isnt working properly
[05:17] <Teraano> pike_: :) cool
[05:18] <ultm8> so i changed to "nv" in my xorg.conf and it now displays the screen
[05:18] <ultm8> however my resolutions are out of sync
[05:18] <jacktheripper> Obfuscator, the swap partition has to be the problem...do fdisk -l and make sure all the cylinder boundaries look good and what not
[05:18] <ultm8> and my 3d drivers dont work
[05:18] <stefg> !nvidia | ultm8
[05:18] <ubotu> ultm8: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:18] <jacktheripper> either that or having a 4gig swap is too big for suspensin or something
[05:19] <ultm8> is this guide for nvidia gts 8800 cards
[05:19] <jacktheripper> i normally just doe sh ./NVIDIA-blh blah blah.run to install nvidia
[05:19] <\x6e\x65\x72\x64> 4gig swap? 1gb ought to be enough for anybody :)
[05:19] <ultm8> yeah tried that jacktheripper
[05:19] <ultm8> and it dont work
[05:19] <SlimG> Is it necessary to install realplayer when I've got w32codecs and libxine-extracodecs? If yes: Is there a way to avoid installing realplayer and be able to play realplayer files?
[05:19] <jacktheripper> ultm8, well of course it doesnt work on ubuntu
[05:19] <paperboyES06> I need some help with my sound on my ubuntu
[05:19] <jacktheripper> thats just for normal distros
[05:19] <ultm8> oh
[05:19] <Obfuscator> jacktheripper, maybe reduce swap again then? I did 2xRAM since i seemed to remember that... maybe it was RAM/2??
[05:19] <ultm8> well it has worked on ubuntu in the past
[05:19] <stefg> SlimG: mplayer with w32codecs plays most realplayer stuff
[05:19] <dray> i fixed the problem, thank you google
[05:19] <ultm8> till distro upgrade
[05:20] <paperboyES06> I am quite a newbie and cannot get any sound to come out at all
[05:20] <SlimeyPete> Obfuscator: 2xRAM is the usual amount
[05:20] <jacktheripper> Obfuscator, well, you have those options
[05:20] <paperboyES06> any suggestions?
[05:20] <jacktheripper> Obfuscator, something went wrong, you should be able to narrow it down
[05:20] <jacktheripper> since you only changed one thing :p
[05:20] <manitou_> hi ! how to auto mount ata HD ? i have system on sata and 1 extra ATA !
[05:20] <SlimG> stefg: Is the realplayer within the w32codecs pack? or in the mplayer package?
[05:20] <\x6e\x65\x72\x64> Obfuscator, I read somewhere above 1gb 1xRAM is enough, I use it and it never gets totally filled up
[05:20] <jacktheripper> SlimeyPete, if i had 8gigs of ram, id need a 16gb swap!
[05:21] <dray> interfaces = eth1 lo
[05:21] <dray>     bind interfaces only = yes . This was the only thing that would work in getting samba to recognise eth1
[05:21] <stefg> SlimG: the real 9 codecs come with w32codecs
[05:21] <SlimeyPete> jacktheripper: well, not "need". It's just a rule of thumb.
[05:21] <logreeval> hi, if i close my laptop lid after i start my computer, it just goes blank if i open it up again
[05:21] <jacktheripper> SlimeyPete, thats never been a rule of thumb for me
[05:21] <jacktheripper> its been proven wrong  and bad advaice :p
[05:21] <SlimeyPete> jacktheripper: it has? by who?
[05:21] <Obfuscator> jacktheripper, \x6e, slimeypete ill try to look up if there is a upper limit. I increased swap since it was filling up upon hibernate, but not having hibernate at all is worse :D
[05:21] <jacktheripper> hardocp
[05:22] <ali1234> logreeval: system->preferences->power management
[05:22] <dr_willis> There is some where i heard that if you use 'suspend to disk' you may need a lot of swap for the suspend space.
[05:22] <andrer> i know I can do port forwarding on ssh using the -L directive... but on putty, i can do it dynamically, after the connection is already established... is this possible on shell ssh?
[05:22] <logreeval> i will try ali1234
[05:23] <ali1234> logreeval: set it to something like "blank screen" or "nothing" and try again

[05:23] <ali1234> logreeval: for both mains and battery?
[05:23] <F00BaR`> sorted it
[05:23] <jacktheripper> andrer, i dont think you can really do that with putty...you have to reconnect for your settings to take effect afaik
[05:23] <logreeval> yes
[05:23] <nixternal> damn you!
[05:23] <ali1234> logreeval: are you using beryl?
[05:24] <logreeval> its if i power the computer up, while it is starting, close the lid, it is blank
[05:24] <logreeval> beryl?
[05:24] <andrer> jacktheripper: i am sure you can add port mappings dinamically... i do it all the time
[05:24] <phantom_> How do i force version (Block it from updating) in Adept Packagemanager???
[05:24] <andrer> jacktheripper: just add then then click " apply"
[05:24] <logreeval> i want to be able to close the lid after i hit the power button, let it start up, and then open up the lid again
[05:25] <jacktheripper> andrer, hmm yeah it updated my putty event log...
[05:25] <jacktheripper> interesting
[05:25] <logreeval> is there a quick keyboard option to turn on your monitor?
[05:25] <tmske> I'm trying to gem install so ruby files on ubuntu, it seems that they install correctly but if I try require 'somefile', ruby doesn't find it

[05:26] <Charles_Xavier> are you still here
[05:26] <tmske> s/so/some
[05:26] <Charles_Xavier> My cpu is being underclocked by ubuntu i think, can anyone help
[05:26] <swimmerino88> logreeval please contact me with my name...well yes it is but it doesn't work
[05:26] <Charles_Xavier> is there a setting in bios that will underclock my cpu?
[05:26] <SlimeyPete> Charles_Xavier: ubuntu won't do it
[05:26] <ali1234> logreeval: ah, only while booting? at that point, the bios still controls the power management... so just dont do it
[05:26] <ali1234> logreeval: or perhaps check the bios settings, maybe there is an option in there
[05:26] <SlimeyPete> your bios will, though
[05:26] <Charles_Xavier> i gathered some settings form bios
[05:27] <SlimeyPete> Charles_Xavier: are you sure you aren't using ol-n-quiet or speedstep?
[05:27] <Charles_Xavier> will any of these underclock:
[05:27] <SlimeyPete> *cool
[05:27] <z3r0ph3wl> hej. help! i have AD198x sound chip on my compaq nx6310. and then i play music sound quality is so bad. but in windows its good!wha i should do_
[05:27] <TiagoWW> Hi can anybody help me!??
[05:27] <SlimG> What driver should be chosen for a ATI Mobile 1300 ?
[05:27] <logreeval> ok, thank you
[05:27] <anhdepyeu> Does anyone know why the IDE nodes in feisty are /dev/sd... rather than /dev/hd...?
[05:27] <SlimeyPete> TiagoWW: depends what your problem is
[05:27] <logreeval> i cant contact you swimmerino88 i am not registered
[05:27] <Charles_Xavier> acpi: suspend type is S1, cpu thermal thorrling is 50%, thermal management is thermal monitor #1, apic mode is enabled, vga volt is 1.675v and cpu volt is 1.415v, spread spectrum disabled, and cpu clock is 200mhz
[05:28] <Charles_Xavier> is any of those underclocking
[05:28] <SlimeyPete> anhdepyeu: in the latest kernels, the ide stuff was moved into the scsi subsystem
[05:28] <Vlet> SlimG: The 'restricted drivers' tool should install the right one...
[05:28] <TiagoWW> SlimeyPete, Im trying to install my nvidia driver but i'm havin some troubles
[05:28] <brainiac> !openvpn, brainiac
[05:28] <SlimeyPete> anhdepyeu: so as faras Ubuntu knows, they are scsi/SATA disks
[05:28] <phantom_> How do i force version in KDE (Block it from updating) in Adept Packagemanager??? In Gnome-ppp or Kppp how doo I dial connection with comand???
[05:28] <anhdepyeu> SlimeyPete: thanks
[05:28] <Charles_Xavier> SlimeyPete my bios doesnt have a setting for stepping
[05:28] <Vlet> SlimG: although you won't be able to get hardware acceleration working
[05:28] <swimmerino88> logreeval:do you know hot to resolv the problem with the monitor?
[05:29] <SlimeyPete> Charles_Xavier: what cpu do you have?
[05:29] <logreeval> well, i was going to chck the bios
[05:29] <SlimG> Vlet: X won't start, so I need to know the exact driver, I guess that means I need to use the "ati" driver?
[05:29] <logreeval> but if their is a way to manually get the monitor to start wiht a keyboard shortcut...
[05:29] <gudegnaw> I posted this on the forums and no answer in over a week, In a nutshell, I am running an edgy LAMP desktop and while trying to upgrade to Feisty through the update manager, I see that all the LAMP components are marked for removal and not marked for re-installation... why is that??

[05:30] <Charles_Xavier> how come theres no speedstep section in bios to configure it
[05:31] <logreeval> swimmerino88: should i try the bios?
[05:31] <gudegnaw> has anyone had trouble upgrading to Fesity while running LAMP??
[05:31] <Charles_Xavier> my cpu temps are 28C, I have about 10 fans in this monster case

[05:32] <Charles_Xavier> what should the settings be
[05:32] <SlimeyPete> Charles_Xavier: dunno. Poor-quality BIOS? What makes you think your cpu is underclocked, btw?
[05:32] <Charles_Xavier> in alsa mixer
[05:32] <TiagoWW>        improperly configured kernel source...
[05:32] <Charles_Xavier> mine are all the way full
[05:32] <SlimeyPete> Charles_Xavier: those settings look ok to me
[05:32] <jacktheripper> well you never want to max out a mixer setting
[05:32] <shrimants> is striker7 here?

[05:32] <TiagoWW> Unable to load the kernel module 'nvidia.ko'.  This happens most
[05:32] <rabby> how to downgrade 64 to 32 bit of feisty?
[05:32] <TiagoWW>        frequently when this kernel module was built against the wrong or

[05:32] <Charles_Xavier> and in cpu monitor it shows 2.8
[05:32] <jacktheripper> it causes interference or static
[05:32] <Charles_Xavier> mine is all the way maxed
[05:32] <Charles_Xavier> in red
[05:32] <swimmerino88> logreeval it isn't a bios problem because when i used windows months ago it worked
[05:32] <Charles_Xavier>  what should i set it as
[05:32] <jacktheripper> i keep mine 90 percent
[05:32] <rabby> all pages tell me to look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=74990 but it does no longer exist.
[05:33] <TiagoWW> anybody?
[05:33] <jacktheripper> ideally you should control the volume from the hardware (speakers or reciever) and keep your pc levels at 90%
[05:33] <anhdepyeu> I've connected a new PATA drive on the internal controller (after having previously installed feisty). The BIOS sees it no problem, and the dmesg log shows the SCSI subystem recognizes it fine, but no /dev/sdX node is created for it (I expect /dev/sdd since it is secondary+slave). Any help?  Udev/hotplug?  There does seem to be a /dev/scd0 (major device 11) but I don't know what that is.
[05:33] <Charles_Xavier> jacktheripper what is your PCM setting at and the PC speak??
[05:33] <Obfuscator> ok guys tried mkswap again, no change. What do I grep for in dmesg / kern.log if i want to look for hibernation problems? thanks
[05:33] <brainiac> I'm having trouble following the instructions on wiki.ubuntuusers.de to get openvpn client running... can anyone help?
[05:33] <jacktheripper> Charles_Xavier, i just said, like 90%
[05:33] <logreeval> swimmerino88:  same with me too.......
[05:33] <variant> TiagoWW: you upgrade ubuntu (minor or major upgrade, it doesn't matter) kernel and now you need to reinstall the nvidia drivers
[05:33] <Charles_Xavier> i just checked mine
[05:33] <Charles_Xavier> it was at 32
[05:33] <Charles_Xavier> is that bad
[05:33] <variant> TiagoWW: you should use the recommended nvidia install howto instead to avoid that problem
[05:33] <ramatieg> Anybody know how to get started with 'erc'?
[05:33] <jacktheripper> Obfuscator, there probably isnt anything to look for....
[05:34] <swimmerino88> logreeval does yours works?

[05:50] <dr_willis> Chads,  a way to get a remote shell on one machine, from antoehr.
[05:50] <ludwig> Hello @ all! I just have a short question. I wonder whether I should activate the "feisty-backports" for updates in Synaptic. What advantages or disadvantages does that bring to me? I am a "repository newbie", so help would be great! :-)
[05:50] <toryl__> Chest: http://www.colorstudy.com/software/dwt/
[05:51] <dr_willis> kupesoft,  it may cause failed 'upgrade' to the next release.
[05:51] <killown> anyone use gusty repositories?
[05:51] <Charles_Xavier> hi guys i have a process called
[05:51] <CVD_> scripts?
[05:51] <dr_willis> kupesoft,  why are you even worried about this?
[05:51] <PriceChild> killown, #ubuntu+1
[05:51] <nerdygirl_ellie> !backports
[05:51] <ubotu> If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging
[05:51] <Chest> toryl__: cool.  thanks.
[05:51] <Charles_Xavier> hi guys i have a process called "ssh-agent" enabled in process list. should i shut this off, or is this a safe process to have on
[05:52] <ludwig> ahhh thanks ubotu :-) so they ARE quite useful heh?
[05:52] <PriceChild> Charles_Xavier, do you have seahorse installed...?
[05:52] <treefingers> nerdgirl_ellie & dr_willis: thanks, I found this site which helps me out a bunch ( http://www.imagemagick.org/script/mogrify.php )
[05:52] <killown> but is recomended use feisty or gusty ?
[05:52] <nerdygirl_ellie> treefingers: yep, you found it. :)
[05:52] <SlimG> Does rhytmbox take advantage of the w32codecs when they exist on the system?
[05:52] <kupesoft> dr_willis: I need to remove a package and that will also remove ubuntu-desktop
[05:53] <nerdygirl_ellie> kupesoft: no you don't.  find another way. ;)
[05:53] <kupesoft> nerdygirl_ellie: Yes, I do (;
[05:53] <killown> hey please
[05:53] <CVD_> any here know about scripts?
[05:53] <killown> gusty or feisty?
[05:53] <nerdygirl_ellie> CVD_: what do you want to know?
[05:53] <nerdygirl_ellie> killown: Do not use gutsy yet unless you know dpkg.
[05:54] <nerdygirl_ellie> killown: wait for at least tribe 3.
[05:54] <john`> I accidently turn chmod -x /etc/init.d/rc script off and now my system won't boot up right, how do I activate it again in boot mode? can someone help me please

[05:54] <PriceChild> nerdygirl_ellie, killown wait until release
[05:54] <osxdude|palmTX> I cannot shut down my Ubuntu desktop. Help pls?
[05:54] <PriceChild> osxdude|palmTX, when does it stop?
[05:54] <nerdygirl_ellie> john`: boot from the cd and navigate to it and fix it.
[05:55] <ShackJack> Hi guys - trying to decide between getting a Core 2 Duo or AMD 64 X2 for an Ubuntu setup for my Dad... It should "just work" for him.. Anyone have any impressions on Ubuntu's 64-bit vs. 32 bit performance with day-to day tasks (email, wb, gnucash)... If it's much faster using one vs. the other, etc...
[05:55] <john`> nerdygirl_ellie: I have a live cd.
[05:55] <john`> how do I do that?
[05:55] <nerdygirl_ellie> osxdude|palmTX: you can try ctrl-alt-backspace
[05:55] <osxdude|palmTX> After my last hibernation
[05:55] <nerdygirl_ellie> john` boot from it and ....
[05:55] <nerdygirl_ellie> ShackJack: 64 bit is really hit-or-miss.  stick with the intel.
[05:55] <dr_willis> kupesoft,  removeing ubuntu-desktop wont affect much of anything.
[05:55] <SlimG> Does rhytmbox take advantage of the w32codecs when they exist on the system?
[05:55] <kupesoft> dr_willis: Thanks (;
[05:56] <kupesoft> dr_willis: I found the docs already
[05:56] <nerdygirl_ellie> john`: you should be able to reach your desktop under the places menu.
[05:56] <Chads> is there anyway I can get ubuntu to stop loading ndiswrapper at boot. I think that is causing the problem.
[05:56] <ShackJack> nerdygirl_ellie: Thanks... Can anyone tell me if there's a huge performance difference with day-today stuff, between the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Ubuntu...
[05:56] <jacktheripper> less than 10%
[05:57] <jacktheripper> ShackJack, stick with 32-bit in my opinion
[05:57] <john`> nerdygirl_ellie: which menu are you talking about ?
[05:57] <dr_willis> ShackJack,  most likely.. Not noticeable..
[05:57] <dr_willis> ShackJack,  specific Number crunching tasks... perhaps..
[05:57] <CVD_> its there a way ti know hwy the hell feisty freeze everytime. alot
[05:57] <CVD_> ?
[05:57] <ShackJack> jacktheripper: THanks - are you saying because no huge performance difference, or because 32 bit easier to run/deal with most programs...
[05:58] <nerdygirl_ellie> Chads: if you can get to the filesystem, you can blacklist it
[05:58] <ShackJack> dr_willis: Thanks ;)
[05:58] <\x6e\x65\x72\x64> Charles_Xavier, I'm back
[05:58] <jacktheripper> ShackJack, both

[05:58] <ShackJack> jacktheripper: K - thanx...
[05:58] <jacktheripper> ShackJack, definately both
[05:59] <Chads> I can use the ubuntu live cd will that help?
[05:59] <ShackJack> jacktheripper: dr_willis nerdygirl_ellie - Thanks all - the system is for my Dad (he want's to buy from Dell) so it should just work... I think I;ll go with their Ubuntu only 32-bit offering...

[06:02] <jacktheripper> ShackJack, i hope you are familiar with ubuntu
[06:02] <reed026> like I'm trying to remove all of Ubuntu server, I cleared my partitions, however the grub loader is coming up
[06:02] <PriceChild> reed026, install a new boot loader
[06:02] <hylje> reed026: removing grub removes the ability to boot from your machine. you want to replace it
[06:02] <Charles_Xavier> \x6e\x65\x72\x64,
[06:03] <Charles_Xavier> i retrived some information from my bios
[06:03] <Charles_Xavier> are you here?
[06:03] <\x6e\x65\x72\x64> what did you get Charles_Xavier ?
[06:03] <ShackJack> jacktheripper: Yes, I am, but why do you say that?
[06:03] <centaur5> I installed the newest alsa drivers and followed the community doc on sound problems and it now detects a new alsa device but there is still only sound from the headphone jack and not the speakers on an acer 3050. Any ideas?
[06:03] <reed026> I don't know how to replace it
[06:03] <Charles_Xavier> acpi: suspend type is S1, cpu thermal thorrling is 50%, thermal management is thermal monitor #1, apic mode is enabled, vga volt is 1.675v and cpu volt is 1.415v, spread spectrum disabled, and cpu clock is 200mhz
[06:03] <Charles_Xavier> my bios doesnt have a speedspte section
[06:04] <reed026> I'm just trying to install WinNT so I can download the newest bios updates because I'm having A LOT of problems installing Ubuntu server.
[06:04] <Charles_Xavier> something is lowered my multiplier
[06:04] <Charles_Xavier> i dont know what
[06:04] <Chads> Can I just install Ubuntu again? Its a dual boot with vista.
[06:04] <reed026> I can't even boot into Ubuntu.
[06:04] <\x6e\x65\x72\x64> Charles_Xavier, sorry can't help you then, I don't have a C2D
[06:04] <Charles_Xavier> no its not
[06:04] <Charles_Xavier> its a p4
[06:05] <jacktheripper> Charles_Xavier, just install slackware again when 12.0 comes out
[06:05] <jacktheripper> then it wont underclock
[06:05] <Charles_Xavier> i plan on it, but a dual boot
[06:05] <Charles_Xavier> with ubuntu
[06:05] <sn-> reed026 yoou can use a freedos bootable cd with your bios bin file included
[06:05] <Charles_Xavier> whcih will really fuck it u
[06:06] <Charles_Xavier> sorry for language

[06:06] <Charles_Xavier> bad habbit
[06:06] <Chads> Anyone help on repairing Ubuntu?
[06:06] <Charles_Xavier> wont happen again
[06:06] <PriceChild> Chads, repairing what problem?
[06:06] <treefingers> I need to grab some files off of Ubuntu and copy them to a windows computer over my home network, I have the packages installed I am just wondering how I navigate to my Ubuntu computer on the Windows one
[06:06] <reed026> I don't know how to make one. Already tried
[06:06] <ShackJack> !ask | Chads
[06:06] <ubotu> Chads: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:06] <Chads> It wont boot Price
[06:07] <PriceChild> Chads, more detail... where does it stop
[06:07] <Chads> hangs halfway through the bootup process
[06:07] <Chads> sorry
[06:07] <Chads> asking away....
[06:07] <PriceChild> how long have you left it?
[06:07] <dr_willis> treefingers,  simple way is isntall winscp on windows, and ssh on ubuntu, and use winscp to copy/move things.
[06:07] <jacktheripper> winscp is butsekz
[06:07] <dr_willis> treefingers,  if you want a 'shared' home dir, or folders - you need to set up samba.
[06:07] <PriceChild> !ohmy | jacktheripper
[06:07] <ubotu> jacktheripper: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:08] <jacktheripper> filezilla works too
[06:08] <dr_willis> jacktheripper,  thank you for that useless comment. that made no sence anyway..
[06:08] <treefingers> So I will need to set up Samba on my windows computer also?
[06:08] <PriceChild> !netsplit
[06:08] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[06:08] <dr_willis> treefingers,  samba is Linuxs version of the 'network neighborhood' stuff. :)
[06:08] <jacktheripper> dr_willis, winscp is butsekz
[06:08] <Toma-> hehe enjoy the show..
[06:08] <CVD__> hot to avtivate a script?
[06:08] <ShackJack> !language | jacktheripper
[06:08] <ubotu> jacktheripper: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:08] <treefingers> Well I have samba installed and my folder is being shared but I am wondering how I will navigate to it on the windows computer?
[06:08] <jacktheripper> !language | jacktheripper
[06:08] <dr_willis> treefingers,  being shared 'how' ?
[06:09] <Obfuscator> ok reduced swap to 2 gb, no luck giving up
[06:09] <john`> how can you list the device that you can see in ubuntu?
[06:09] <treefingers> I right clicked the folder and went to Sharing and installed the packages
[06:09] <dr_willis> treefingers,  check the windows network neighboorhood stuff?
[06:09] <PriceChild> !botabuse > jacktheripper (see the pm from ubotu)
[06:09] <jacktheripper> ??
[06:09] <dr_willis> treefingers,  you may need to manually configure the samba stuff. By default its very locked down.
[06:09] <jacktheripper> i block pms
[06:09] <treefingers> well if I was sharing these files on my windows partition I would just go on the other computer and go to explorer and type //computername
[06:10] <ali1234> john`: lspci; lsusb
[06:10] <dr_willis> treefingers,  right.. but theres no default shares  on the ubuntu box. :) its locked down.
[06:10] <ali1234> john`: or system->preferences->hardware
[06:10] <john`> I just want to see hardrive, cdrom and usb stuff
[06:10] <dr_willis> treefingers,  thats why i suggesting using winscp or similer tools to get the files.. unless you want a perment 'shared folder/network' to get to.
[06:10] <john`> not all device
[06:10] <CVD__> zzz
[06:11] <dr_willis> john`,  you mean in the file manager/load dialog?
[06:11] <ali1234> john`: then you want places->computer
[06:11] <kdubois> Obfuscator: what are you trying to do?
[06:11] <john`> well, I'm trying to mount something and I don't know the name of that hardrive like /dev/sda1 or something
[06:11] <jacktheripper> ln -s ../ a; cd a/a/a/a/a/a/a/a/a/a/a/a/a
[06:11] <jacktheripper> silly
[06:12] <treefingers> dr_willis: I am just going to end up sending the files over AIM :/
[06:13] <kdubois> john`, if its a serial drive, it will start with sd. if its a IDE drive, it will start with hd. The first physical drive is called "a" and the number after that is the partition number
[06:13] <kdubois> hope that helps....
[06:14] <Chadders> so how can I tell why ubuntu is hanging during the boot process. tried ctrl alt f1 & f2 nothing. Its just stuck on the bar halfway through.
[06:14] <Hazarath> Okes, on a ThinkPad R31 2656, and my mouse is anything but... stable. It likes to go totally heywire. Any advice/help?
[06:14] <jacktheripper> Chadders, ctrl alt f1 and f2 before it locks up and see where it is stopping
[06:14] <dr_willis> treefingers,  whatever.. ya could of had the stuff done by now. :)
[06:14] <Chadders> ahh ok before it looks up
[06:15] <OmegaCenti> Anything good to read about upstart?
[06:15] <jacktheripper> Chadders, whichever button lets you see the processes its performing
[06:15] <jacktheripper> one of them replaces bootsplat
[06:15] <dr_willis> OmegaCenti,  there was a Upstart wiki page. i recall.. aint checkd it out in ages.
[06:15] <OmegaCenti> dr_willis: That would help. know what wiki its attached to?
[06:15] <centaur5> I have an atheros wireless card in an Acer that says it's using the restricted modules but it doesn't show in ifconfig as a device.
[06:15] <dr_willis> OmegaCenti,  nope. :) id have to google.
[06:16] <Chadders> it says kernel panic not syncing.
[06:16] <Chadders> aiee killing interupt handler
[06:16] <okhere> can anyone help me with a boot problem please ?? i had windows and ubuntu in dual boot in 2 separated partitions but when i deleted the windows partition and merged it with the linux partition now i get "grub error 22"
[06:16] <OmegaCenti> dr_willis: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/wiki/ look familiar?
[06:16] <jacktheripper> Chadders, wait btw, what did you do before it stopped working?  any updatse?
[06:16] <HymnToLife> okhere, define "merged"
[06:16] <dr_willis> OmegaCenti,  does it matter? :) looks like the ofofical ubuntuwiki page to me
[06:17] <OmegaCenti> dr_willis: oy, looks to be a bit out of my scope
[06:17] <Chadders> well i tried to change an ndiswrapper device driver to a 64 bit version
[06:17] <OmegaCenti> I need a beginners guide about runleves and init.d or upstart
[06:17] <Chadders> it seems thats causing it to hang.
[06:17] <djdarkman> Hy can someone help me set up pulseaudio?
[06:17] <jacktheripper> Chadders, you really should read like 5 lines from the bottom

[06:19] <Chadders> a few RIP, RSP and CR2 and then kernel panic.
[06:19] <OmegaCenti> dr_willis: I am trying to understand it so that I may understand what the system does at startup, the sequence of events, and how I might modify it
[06:19] <budmang> My friends never crashes and mine does.
[06:19] <jacktheripper> Chadders, yes...that is a complete kernel crash :/  so you just want to fix your system?  boot an ubuntu cd, mount your root partition, delete the new module from /var/lib/modules *somewhere in there)
[06:20] <click__> what is kubuntu ?
[06:20] <OmegaCenti> Flannel: Did you like TLD?

[06:20] <jacktheripper> click__, for ku klux klan members
[06:20] <jacktheripper> err kde
[06:20] <Chadders> do you mean boot from a live cd?
[06:20] <nny> de
[06:20] <jacktheripper> users
[06:20] <asaup> what can i do to resolve grub error 22
[06:20] <treefingers> What does the red, horizontal line that sometimes comes up on XChat mean?
[06:20] <OmegaCenti> dr_willis: meh, I am trying to understand ALL these messages coming across whenever ubuntu comes out of the gate, I turned off quiet so I could learn more
[06:20] <jacktheripper> Chadders, yeah just boot a live cd and mount your root partition somewhere
[06:20] <dr_willis> treefingers,  perhaps lag?
[06:20] <Flannel> treefingers: when you look away, that marks the last line you saw beforehand
[06:20] <OmegaCenti> And whenever I look at init.d, all I see is a bunch of executables and I have no idea what calls them
[06:20] <Flannel> treefingers: so if you come back, you see what you've missed
[06:21] <jacktheripper> optionally you can actually use the kernel on the disk to actually boot your system
[06:21] <Hazarath> Hmm... ok, found something, but... I don't know how to apply this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/21558
[06:21] <dr_willis> treefingers,  or ya mean in the chat? thats when you last  had xchat lose focus.
[06:21] <nny> Hi, does anyone knwo the name of the software that remasters an ubuntu live cd, used it a month or two ago, worked great and was very easy, now I can't remember the name :\
[06:21] <Chadders> will you walk me through it if i go ahead bit new here.
[06:21] <OmegaCenti> Is there something like registry run - runonce in windows registry?
[06:21] <centaur5> how can I find out what version of the madwifi drivers are installed?
[06:21] <dr_willis> treefingers,  that wayyou can see where you left off.
[06:21] <treefingers> Ohhh ok it must be when I click on another application
[06:21] <treefingers> haha, nifty thanks.
[06:21] <jacktheripper> OmegaCenti, gnome/kde have options to launch any programs at login
[06:21] <jacktheripper> but there is no run-once unless you make a script that deletes itself
[06:22] <john`> how come when I boot into cd and use sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/rc and then I see the file is execute and then when I reboot it still say that the file is not booting up and I can't boot up the machine?
[06:22] <OmegaCenti> jacktheripper: I understand that and use it to its fullest.
[06:22] <Chadders> So what would i be deleting?
[06:22] <OmegaCenti> jacktheripper: However, the parts that show up before gnome even comes around is what interests me.
[06:22] <CVD__> any here know about scripts
[06:22] <jacktheripper> john`, cds are read only
[06:22] <jacktheripper> OmegaCenti, .xinitrc ?
[06:22] <john`> so what do I need to do jacktheripper?
[06:22] <OmegaCenti> jacktheripper: I have no idea. maybe thats what I am looking to understand
[06:23] <jacktheripper> john`, run it manually, chmod +x it and then do /etc/init.d/blah start
[06:23] <OmegaCenti> jacktheripper: is that part of upstart?
[06:23] <nny> is there an ubuntu developer or other channel I could ask questions of a different nature
[06:23] <dr_willis> .xinitrc really isent used much under ubuntu. :)
[06:23] <OmegaCenti> !xinitrc
[06:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xinitrc - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:23] <jacktheripper> john`, you hae to redo it every time you reboot...cuz the cd is read only :)
[06:23] <OmegaCenti> !ini
[06:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ini - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[06:23] <dr_willis> OmegaCenti,  and its NOT part of upstart
[06:23] <OmegaCenti> Then what is upstart
[06:23] <OmegaCenti> !upstart
[06:23] <ubotu> Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model.  For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/
[06:23] <jacktheripper> i dont know what upstart is
[06:23] <dr_willis> upstart is the replacemebnt for the 'sysv' init system.
[06:23] <dr_willis> that ubuntu developed.
[06:23] <OmegaCenti> What is sysv init system.
[06:23] <killown> Errors were encountered while processing:     /var/cache/apt/archives/nautilus-data_1%3a2.18.1-0ubuntu1_all.deb   "I am upgrade system edgy for feisty and I get it problem I cannot upgrade system because it error

[06:23] <killown> anyone can help me;?
[06:24] <john`> jacktheripper: what do you mean by run it manually?
[06:24] <Hazarath> !ask killtown
[06:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ask killtown - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:24] <dr_willis> OmegaCenti,  sounds like a term you need to google for. :) thats one of the main "init systems" used bylinux and other os's - its been around for ages.
[06:24] <Lunar_Lamp> Why is there no linux-restricted-modules package for server kernels? :-(
[06:24] <Hazarath> Opps. heh.
[06:24] <OmegaCenti> when my computer shutsdown and starts up and does things, thats what interests me. What is the correct place to look for?
[06:24] <jacktheripper> john`, just do /blah/blah/blah/thefileyouchmoded and that will execute it
[06:24] <dr_willis> OmegaCenti,  its documented all over the place. Theres where all the rc.d and rc2.d stuff comes from
[06:24] <OmegaCenti> dr_willis: I have been googling since 3am this morning :) (its 11 now)
[06:24] <dr_willis> OmegaCenti,  each runlevel has a set of scripts - that get ran
[06:24] <jacktheripper> john`, you run it yourself after making it executable vs rebooting
[06:24] <jos> Hi all, I tried to configure Evolution to connect to MSExchange but it tells me that the connector is only compatible w/Exchange 2000 and 2003 and that the server I'm trying to connect is 5.5. the server is actually Echange2003. Any ideas? Thanks
[06:24] <nny> is there an ubuntu developer or other channel I could ask questions of a different nature
[06:24] <dr_willis> OmegaCenti,  look in /etc/init.d for the scripts.
[06:25] <OmegaCenti> dr_willis: see I didn't even know about rc.d and rc2.d
[06:25] <ahmed> hi
[06:25] <HyperDevil> what is the difference between the desktop and the server ubuntu 7.04??
[06:25] <dr_willis> OmegaCenti,  you got a lot of reading to do then. :)
[06:25] <Flannel> Lunar_Lamp: just use the generic kernel if you need restricted modules
[06:25] <OmegaCenti> dr_willis: I enjoy reading, just need to find the right question so I can find the right manual
[06:25] <john`> so in boot mode I can press e to edit and type in /etc/init.d/rc
[06:25] <john`> ?
[06:25] <Flannel> HyperDevil: the programs installed by default
[06:25] <CVD__> helloo
[06:25] <john`> or is this in a cd?
[06:25] <jacktheripper> john`, lol no
[06:25] <CppIsWeird> anyone know of any program to design ERD's for sql databases?
[06:25] <HyperDevil> Flannel, what programs?
[06:25] <OmegaCenti> dr_willis: Sometimes thats the most important part.. Knowing the question
[06:25] <dr_willis> OmegaCenti,  more /etc/init.d/README  for a start. :)
[06:25] <Flannel> HyperDevil: server has no GUI by default
[06:26] <ewook> HyperDevil: more or less with or without a gui.
[06:26] <OmegaCenti> dr_willis: That, my friend. is EVEN better. ;)
[06:26] <HyperDevil> thanks :)
[06:26] <jacktheripper> john`, just boot the cd like normal, then when you get in and after you chmod the file you can manually execute the file to start whatever service you were trying to start
[06:26] <john`> jacktheripper: can you give me step by step, I am kind of new, sorry =(
[06:26] <Lunar_Lamp> Flannel, that works I guess, alas, it draws in the generic kernel, so doesn't use the server kernel.  I'm converting this to a desktop system anyway, so don't mind, but otheres might.
[06:26] <dr_willis> OmegaCenti,  "sysv" is the init system. upstartis a replacement for that system. that isbackwards copatiable.
[06:26] <jacktheripper> john`, you havent even told us what you are trying to do
[06:26] <tolremedios> terra.es
[06:26] <dr_willis> its actually spelt SysV i think.  :)
[06:26] <tolremedios> terra.es
[06:26] <OmegaCenti> dr_willis: is init system the startup portion?
[06:26] <Hazarath> How do I edit my settings as specified in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=464682&highlight=ThinkPad+R31 ?
[06:26] <yurri> hey
[06:27] <john`> I accidently deactivate chmod -x /etc/init.d/rc in ubuntu now I can't boot up anymore
[06:27] <yurri> i am having truoble
[06:27] <jacktheripper> john`, ohhh :)
[06:27] <Flannel> Lunar_Lamp: If it's a desktop, you're going to want the generic kernel anyway, because you want PREEMPT.
[06:27] <nny> hey i had found a great piece of software for remastering debian install cds (ala ubuntu) but the name escapes me. Anyone have a lead?
[06:27] <dr_willis> john`,  yep. that will do it. :)
[06:27] <sn-> make-live nny ?
[06:27] <jacktheripper> john`, ok so boot the cd, mount your root partition mount /dev/??? /mnt/blah;  and then chmod +x /mnt/blah/etc/init.d/rc
[06:27] <Lunar_Lamp> Flannel, hmm, not sure what PREEMPT is - what's that?
[06:27] <john`> so can you give me instruction step by step how to do it?
[06:27] <jacktheripper> john`, done :)
[06:27] <john`> ahh
[06:27] <yurri> how do i sli in ubuntu?
[06:28] <john`> do I have to create a folder for that?
[06:28] <dr_willis> john`,  boot a live cd.  get a root shell, cd over to the dir, and chmod +x it.
[06:28] <jacktheripper> ya create the blah folder
[06:28] <Flannel> Lunar_Lamp: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallCDCustomization ?
[06:28] <sn-> nny i believe its make-live, to make your own livecd etc
[06:28] <jacktheripper> in /mnt/
[06:28] <nny> sn mayhaps.. met me google.. all i remember is that it was intuitive, had a gui, and did an excellent job. I just built an asterisk system in ubuntu, and i want to back it up

[06:30] <Flannel> Lunar_Lamp: basically the desktop kernel has stuff (like PREEMPT) which allows hardware interrupts (like the mouse, etc) to interrupt already running processes, makes it more responsive.  Wikipedia covers it well: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preemption_%28computing%29
[06:30] <jclark4> I have an external usb dvd-rw drive. can ne1 help ?
[06:30] <Chadders> so ok I am into a live Ubuntu cd. what do I need to delete to restore the kernel?
[06:30] <yurri> looking for help with sli
[06:30] <Lunar_Lamp> Flannel, thanks :-)
[06:30] <jacktheripper> Chadders, delete the 64-bit module you added or whatever id assume
[06:31] <Chadders> ahhh ok sounds go
[06:31] <jacktheripper> Chadders, find -name ??? /var/lib/modules/`uname -a`
[06:31] <Chadders> ok mate i'm looking now.
[06:31] <jclark4> I have an external usb dvd-rw drive. can ne1 help ?
[06:31] <chadeldridge> jclark4: what is your question ?
[06:31] <jclark4> well
[06:31] <jacktheripper> Chadders, i dont know if thats how ndis wrapper works...but if it borked your kernel it must :)  its probably in /var/lib/modules/`uname -a`/drivers/ iirc
[06:31] <jclark4> trying to mount it, so that I can burn an .iso image with it. I connected it to a running 7.04 desktop that I have
[06:32] <jacktheripper> err not /var
[06:32] <ndee> re
[06:32] <jacktheripper> Chadders, no /var/ just /lib/modules :/
[06:32] <GhostFreeman> Has anyone here had any success running Photoshop CS in Feisty
[06:32] <chadeldridge> jclark4:  once you plug the device in it should automount in ubuntu desktop
[06:32] <jacktheripper> how come everytime i remove a package it removes ubuntu-desktop?  is ubuntu-desktop safe to remove
[06:32] <aubade> How do you build up a neat deb package after building from source?
[06:33] <jclark4> how can i verify?
[06:33] <jclark4> lsusb ?
[06:33] <aubade> jacktheripper: ubuntu-desktop is a meta-package for making upgrades easier, it's safe to remove.
[06:33] <Niklas-> What can be the reason for a computer not being able to ping itself? Not even 127.0.0.1?
[06:33] <chadeldridge> jclark4:  or just put a blank disk in it ... you will get a menu
[06:33] <sn-> aubade depending how you compiled, part of the compiling process is creating a .deb automatically
[06:33] <jacktheripper> Niklas-, what does ifconfig -a say
[06:33] <PriceChild> aubade, you might want to search for the debian new maintainers guide
[06:33] <yurri> hey can anyone help me with sli nvidiaS?
[06:33] <chadeldridge> yurri: what is your question ?
[06:33] <sn-> something like https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompilingSoftware
[06:33] <jacktheripper> yurri, you want my xp cd key?
[06:33] <PriceChild> jacktheripper, ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage _REQUIRED_ for upgrades
[06:34] <jclark4> chadeldridge: no dice
[06:34] <Niklas-> jacktheripper: the computer is running fine over the network, and other machines can ping it - it just cant ping itself
[06:34] <yurri> i can get sli working
[06:34] <jacktheripper> Niklas-, are you root user?
[06:34] <Niklas-> yes
[06:34] <chadeldridge> jclark4:  does lsusb see the device ?
[06:34] <yurri> i have used envy
[06:34] <aubade> PriceChild: shivy, documentation is always welcome. X)
[06:34] <jclark4> chadeldridge: checking.....
[06:34] <jacktheripper> Niklas-, hmm,,,,,, something dumb with icmp packets
[06:34] <OmegaCenti> Is it of use to a normal user of Linux to read the Advanced bash scripting guide/
[06:34] <OmegaCenti> ?
[06:34] <jacktheripper> Niklas-, are you running a firewall
[06:34] <PriceChild> aubade, documentation is the only way when packaging ;)
[06:34] <yurri> jacktheripper sure
[06:34] <magnet> Niklas-: no loopback interface
[06:35] <jacktheripper> yurri, lolol
[06:35] <Niklas-> jacktheripper: no, it's not only icmp, is everything (web, irc server), i cannot connect to anything locally
[06:35] <PriceChild> !envy | yurri
[06:35] <ubotu> yurri: envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[06:35] <OmegaCenti> I'm trying to go further in my understanding of linux, but I seem to be at a crossroads as to what to do. I want to learn more, but I feel I am jumping in too far.
[06:35] <jacktheripper> ahh magnet is right
[06:35] <Niklas-> No, i have my lo interface
[06:35] <jacktheripper> :/
[06:35] <Niklas-> http://www.pastebin.ca/595637
[06:35] <rambo3> Niklas-, any proxy ?
[06:35] <jclark4> chadeldridge: no....the usb light on the drive blinks for awhile....then it goes out.
[06:35] <Jammer> OmegaCenti, you can do many useful things with little scripting :-)
[06:35] <yurri> hmmmm ubotu dont use envy/?
[06:36] <jclark4> chadeldridge: nothing listed in lsusb for it either
[06:36] <chadeldridge> jclark4:  but the device is not showing in lsusb ?
[06:36] <magnet> Niklas-: what you pasted doesn't say so
[06:36] <OmegaCenti> Jammer: don't.. know where to start though :(
[06:36] <jclark4> chadeldridge: not that i can see
[06:36] <Chadders> ok i can see the ubuntu install on the harddrive where would the ndiswrapper drivers be?
[06:36] <yurri> so which nvidia drivers should i install?
[06:36] <chadeldridge> jclark4:  check dmesg when you plug it in .. are you getting something there ?
[06:36] <yurri> i hav 2 x 8800GTX
[06:36] <Niklas-> magnet: because i did a `ifconfig eth1`..
[06:36] <jacktheripper> Chadders, didnt i say probably in /lib/modules/`uname -a`/drivers or something
[06:36] <chadeldridge> !nvidia | yurri
[06:36] <ubotu> yurri: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:36] <magnet> Niklas-: doing so doesn't imply having a loopback interface
[06:37] <Niklas-> i *know*
[06:37] <magnet> ok
[06:37] <Niklas-> look at the routing table instead, you will see the route for lo interface
[06:37] <Chadders> i looked there mate but my name isnt there nor are the drivers
[06:37] <bronze> What do I have to install to get mplayer support for 0x162 . I got the error when watching a windows media h264 videl.
[06:37] <yurri> chadeldridge you want me to type !nvidia
[06:37] <jclark4> chadeldridge: checking.....
[06:37] <yurri> or use the nvidia website chadeldridge???
[06:37] <magnet> indeed
[06:37] <chadeldridge> use the site the bot gave out
[06:38] <Niklas-> no idea whats going on :/
[06:38] <Jammer> OmegaCenti, well start from basics and move your way up... Scripting itself doesn't teach you much about your system but it can make your life easier
[06:38] <jclark4> chadeldridge: yes
[06:38] <jclark4> chadeldridge: seeing some stuff in there
[06:39] <chadeldridge> jclark4:  would you mind pastebin ing it .. so i can see it
[06:39] <OmegaCenti> # To enable the settings / commands in this file for login shells as well,
[06:39] <OmegaCenti> # this file has to be sourced in /etc/profile.
[06:39] <OmegaCenti> What does that mean?
[06:39] <jacktheripper> Chadders, do you haev another kernel in grub that you can boot?
[06:39] <yurri> ?
[06:39] <chadeldridge> !paste | jclark4
[06:39] <ubotu> jclark4: 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)
[06:39] <yurri> what driver do i use
[06:39] <yurri> '?
[06:39] <susz> can anyone help me with a dist upgrade crash?
[06:39] <jacktheripper> Chadders, i dont know anything about ndis wrapper or how it modified and borked your kerenl
[06:39] <chadeldridge> yurri:  just get the newest driver from nvidia and install it using the directions .. should work out of the box for you
[06:40] <Chadders> I installed ubuntu as it said out of the cd as it were. not sure on the other kernel?
[06:40] <Jammer> OmegaCenti, I think it means it isn't automatically executed after you login unless so specified in /etc/profile
[06:40] <yurri> and the sli?
[06:40] <Chadders> i also changed the graphics i beleive to support something else.
[06:40] <chadeldridge> nothing special about sli .. the driver should take care of it
[06:40] <Chadders> i wouldnt mind just installing the whole thing again but i dont want to ruin my dual boot.
[06:40] <level1> my compy hasn't been suspending correctly.  Most of the time it works beautifully, but sometimes it does kinda a failed suspend, where the fans and usb devices turn off, but the processor is still running... I'm worried that its going to damage my processor (overheating)
[06:41] <sebrock> Anyone knows why my portmap starts twice during boot?
[06:41] <jacktheripper> Chadders, im sorry, but maybe someone else can help you fix it....sounds like you just want to put a new kernel on it
[06:41] <yurri> chadeldridge and sli will be working?
[06:41] <newtubuntu> wondering why I lose my panels (top and bottom) in workspaces I create ?
[06:41] <chadeldridge> yurri: should be yes
[06:42] <jclark4> chadeldridge: brain fart.....copying from xterm? ctrl-c ????
[06:42] <Chadders> anyone got any ideas on repairing ubuntu?
[06:42] <chadeldridge> jclark4:  yeah  ... mouse highlight and ctrl x
[06:42] <chadeldridge> c
[06:42] <chadeldridge> i mean
[06:43] <john`> jacktheripper: yay thanks, it works =) but I have a question, how come I don't see the /mnt folder in ubuntu cd even after I show all hidden files, is it just there?
[06:43] <newtubuntu> how much RAM is required/recommended to run Beryl smoothly ? (without getting black/white windows)
[06:43] <chadeldridge> jclark4:  forgive me ... its shift ctrl c
[06:43] <Scunizi> Chadders, what's up .. or broke I should say.
[06:43] <jacktheripper> john`, i have no idea...they must be protecting people from discovering /mnt
[06:44] <john`> weird..
[06:44] <john`> is there a way you know how to see it?
[06:44] <john`> beside the console
[06:44] <chadeldridge> newtubuntu:  ram is not as much of an issue as the video card ... some nvidea cards cause the black screens ... try running beryl using aiglx and it will fix that issue
[06:44] <john`> er terminal
[06:44] <ahmed> i need to play EA sports on ubuntu
[06:44] <jacktheripper> john`, i only use the console for my file management...so no
[06:44] <ahmed> any one can help me
[06:44] <jclark4> chadeldridge: done
[06:44] <john`> how do you make a folder in terminal?
[06:44] <john`> mkdir?

[06:45] <malk> hi, i need help
[06:45] <Scunizi> john: sudo mkdir if the folder is below your home directory.. just mkdir if it's in your home directory.
[06:45] <susz> please can someone help?  My laptop crashed during upgrade to feisty
[06:46] <jacktheripper> ahmed, if it runs at all (wine/winex) then it would probably run badly...and you wuoldnt like the result
[06:46] <jacktheripper> just guessing
[06:46] <chadeldridge> jclark4:  are you connecting this device to a usb hub?  if so can you try to connect it directly to the pc instead ?
[06:46] <El_Burro> evening all

[06:50] <chadeldridge> jclark4:  i have read a ton of issues with usb devices not working in ubuntu, but i have never actually found 1 myself that didnt work.  Hate to say it, but it seems there is just something about that device that isnt playing nice.  Maybe someone else can figure it out
[06:50] <arcad3> ahmed u can paly windows games on ubuntu
[06:50] <ahmed> how ?
[06:50] <arcad3> with wine
[06:50] <raf256>  sudo echo "80.79.115.122 limcore.etudeng.ee" >>  /etc/hosts    says /etc/hosts permission dany, wtf, why?
[06:50] <susz> is there a way to recover if feisty upgrade crashes.  I can log in to edgy still via grub but no network.  please help!
[06:50] <chadeldridge> arcad3:  poorly
[06:50] <arcad3> !wine
[06:50] <kdubois> or cedega
[06:50] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[06:50] <jclark4> chadeldridge: so on the back of my machine there's a bunch of usb ports.  possibly those ports are seen as a hub.  so, is there a way to see if the hub itself is enabled/disabled
[06:50] <jacktheripper> ....
[06:51] <ahmed> but transforming isnot good
[06:51] <jacktheripper> raf256, its trying to execute the hosts file
[06:51] <bronze> Can anyone tell me how to get a terminal in my background? I've tried the devilspie thingy but it gave me an error.
[06:51] <chadeldridge> jclark4:  your ports are all listed ... can you try another one for giggles ?
[06:51] <HymnToLife> raf256,     echo "80.79.115.122 limcore.etudeng.ee" | sudo tee -a /etc/hosts

[06:52] <jacktheripper> i know this for a fact
[06:52] <troy> Linux newbie, I'm trying to make real player my plugin for mozilla, how do I do this
[06:53] <Praboy> In google there are many tutorials
[06:53] <HymnToLife> jacktheripper, no, it is not
[06:53] <jacktheripper> HymnToLife, fine then
[06:53] <malk-brasil> my mouse and keyboard work in boot, work in grub...but dont work in grub !!!  why ???
[06:53] <malk-brasil> my mouse and keyboard work in boot, work in grub...but dont work in gdm !!!  why ???
[06:53] <malk-brasil> GDM
[06:53] <ndee> in which package is "exportfs"?
[06:53] <jacktheripper> malk-brasil, /j #ubuntu-es
[06:54] <cor_> malk-brasil: the drivers for wireless keyb and mouse are not loaded in grub
[06:54] <jclark4> chadeldridge: same thing.
[06:54] <malk-brasil> no no no, not grub...GDM !
[06:54] <jacktheripper> malk-brasil, oh you fixed it... GDM huh, well thats your xorg.conf
[06:54] <chadeldridge> jclark4:  right after pluggin that device in can you pastebin me the dmesg | tail ?
[06:54] <ptr1234> I'd like to be able to do things like reinstall grub after a windows install, but I don't want to use the ubuntu live cd. What could I do?
[06:54] <cor_> ah yes
[06:54] <jacktheripper> change the mouse device do /dev/input/mice probably
[06:55] <jacktheripper> i dont know about the keyboard device or whatever
[06:55] <chadeldridge> ptr1234:  you could use the gparted live cd if you have some hatred of the ubuntu live cd ... otherwise any partition utility that can set a part active will work
[06:55] <QwertyM> will a 'sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop' give me the exact KDE desktop like the Kubuntu CD will ?
[06:55] <Scunizi> ptr1234, why don't you want to use the live cd?  That's usually the best way. Instructions can be found at http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/p15.htm
[06:55] <QwertyM> like, an exact replica ?
[06:56] <ahmed> i have download and install wine from synaptic packages manager
[06:56] <HymnToLife> chadeldridge, the GParted Live CD cannot reinstall Grub
[06:56] <yurri> ummmm
[06:56] <aroo> QwertyM: It should, yes
[06:56] <chadeldridge> HymmToLife:  I am assuming he means to fix grub after a windows install
[06:56] <ahmed> but ididnot find it on applications
[06:56] <m1r> arcad3 , PM
[06:56] <chadeldridge> windows replaces the mbr
[06:56] <QwertyM> aroo, ok thank you
[06:56] <yurri> i just check the nvidia website and it says 8800GTX not supported
[06:56] <HymnToLife> chadeldridge, yes, meaning that Grub needs to be reinstalled onto the MBR
[06:56] <QwertyM> aroo, cause it just asked for some 500~ MB free space
[06:56] <ptr1234> Scunizi, takes to long hehe
[06:57] <aroo> QwertyM: Installing kubuntu desktop will have tons of dependencies
[06:57] <iphv37> people! i'm in a live session trying to format and set the new partitions.. but when i set the first new partition, it appears like /dev/hda5 !! if i create a primary partition, it appears the same and i can not create any other!!!
[06:57] <ahmed> i have installed wine
[06:57] <aroo> QwertyM: It's the entire KDE desktop + lots more
[06:57] <ahmed> on ubuntu
[06:57] <chadeldridge> HymmToLife:  true sorry, 20 questions later and my brain is gettin thin
[06:57] <ahmed> by synaptic packages manager
[06:57] <HymnToLife> iphv37, do you have a question ?
[06:57] <ahmed> but ididnot find it
[06:57] <QwertyM> aroo, yeah, I want the KDE and its software to work fine along with my gnome
[06:57] <bluefox83> iphv37, don't worry, so long as your boot loader knows where your primary partition is, it will still work
[06:57] <Scunizi> ptr1234, maybe.. but you have to get to a terminal prompt somehow in linux to do it.  If you can't boot into the installed sys, you're left with a live cd.
[06:57] <Praboy> praboy
[06:58] <ahmed> any one know how can setup wine
[06:58] <chapium> QwertyM: kdebase and kdelibs will probably be installed
[06:58] <chadeldridge> ahmed:  sudo apt-get install wine
[06:59] <QwertyM> chapium, um, I want to use KDE as well actually :-)
[06:59] <jclark4> chadeldridge: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27798/
[06:59] <QwertyM> chapium, so a kubuntu-desktop installation should do me good I guess?
[06:59] <susz> help!  I need to get my machine working, if only on edgy but feisty upgrade broke both
[06:59] <aroo> QwertyM: I have read of weirdnesses caused by kde/gnome together such as broken shortcuts, etc
[06:59] <iphv37> bluefox83, but how do i format the entire disk to then, while installing, make the partitions starting in /dev/hda1 ??
[06:59] <ptr1234> chadeldridge, Scunizi isn't there a way to burn a bootable cd which has that interpreter and all the programs needed to install grub to the boot sector?
[06:59] <ahmed> wine is already exist
[06:59] <ferronica>  there is new version of Nicotine available how to upgrade my old nicotine or ubuntu will update it ???
[06:59] <ahmed> but i canot find it
[06:59] <QwertyM> aroo, chapium, or do you suggest a different installation?
[06:59] <bluefox83> iphv37, tell it to use entire disk
[06:59] <chadeldridge> ahmed:  type winefile
[07:00] <ahmed> in terminal
[07:00] <QwertyM> aroo, yeah it happens a few times, back when I used them both on Fedora
[07:00] <aroo> QwertyM: I've never actually had both installed at the same time so I can't suggest anything
[07:00] <Scunizi> ptr1234, maybe, but you'll spend much more time trying to figure that one out than just booting to a live cd.
[07:00] <chadeldridge> ptr1234:  i am sure there is .. but the live cd will take you 5 mins to book
[07:00] <ahmed> ine: could not load L"c:\\windows\\system32\\file.exe": Module not found
[07:00] <chadeldridge> boot
[07:00] <iphv37> but using the entire disk, may i set the partitions as i want?
[07:00] <chadeldridge> ahmed no spaces ... just  winefile
[07:00] <QwertyM> aroo, okay, I'll just try it out then, I can remove it afterall, if something goes wrong, its Linux :)
[07:01] <chadeldridge> ahmed:  to start an exe application just type wine name_of_file
[07:01] <iphv37> bluefox83: but using the entire disk, may i set the partitions as i want?
[07:01] <yurri> how do  i get sli WORKING?
[07:01] <ahmed> many thanks
[07:01] <ahmed> chadeldridge
[07:02] <bluefox83> iphv37, uhm..i don't really remember...if you want to set your own, you might want to chose custom, and then slide the bars where you want them...
[07:02] <toed> I'm using ubuntu feisty and I used to have a fancy osd whenever I used the keyboard to change the brightness on my thinkpad, but I don't seem to get it anymore, although the keys to change brightness still work

[07:03] <yurri> chadeldridge that doesnt fix my problem
[07:03] <bluefox83> iphv37, i think that's swap partition...
[07:03] <aroo> kinections: by installing fresh
[07:03] <pramz> ahmed, what exactly do you want to learn ?
[07:03] <kinections> aroo: there is no way to update from 6.06->6.10->7.04?
[07:04] <ferronica>  there is new version of Nicotine available how to upgrade my old nicotine or ubuntu will update it ???
[07:04] <iphv37> bluefox83: ?!?
[07:04] <ahmed> i need to learn how to configure network with linux
[07:04] <Scunizi> kinections, move /home to its own partition then reinstall fresh
[07:04] <sebrock> which log will show me why portmap is trying to load two times upon boot?
[07:04] <ahmed> iam working in ISP co
[07:04] <aroo> kinections: I have no idea since I've never done it, but I'm sure it would be infinitely easier to keep /home on its own partition and install fresh
[07:04] <aroo> kinections: at least that's what I do
[07:04] <ahmed> but all my life i was dealing with windows
[07:04] <ahmed> but now i need to prepare my self
[07:04] <bluefox83> iphv37, /dev/hda5 is usually the swap partition...
[07:04] <kinections> aroo: well this was a fresh install so there's no need to back up home there's nothing in it
[07:04] <ahmed> so iam thinking in linux
[07:05] <pramz> ahmed, i would recommend buying a good book about managing linux machines. I recommend Running Linux by O'Reilly to get you started.
[07:05] <aroo> kinections: I am not talking about backing up /home
[07:05] <aroo> kinections: I'm talking about permanently keeping /home on its own partition
[07:05] <jacktheripper> pranz, s/managing/mangling/
[07:05] <ahmed> i need box to read
[07:05] <jacktheripper> ahmed, just install slackware
[07:05] <aroo> kinections: but if you're saying /home is empty, then I guess it woudl be useless for you
[07:05] <ahmed> i have install ubuntu
[07:05] <ahmed> with beryl
[07:05] <kinections> aroo: ah, does ubuntu do that by default? i'm helping someone over MSN on installing ubuntu, i don't want to explain to him how to partition
[07:05] <jacktheripper> you will learn linux faster :p  you will learn ubuntu on ubuntu...not linux ;o
[07:05] <ahmed> and really it's fantastic
[07:05] <iphv37> bluefox83: in this case, any kind of first partition created starts in /dev/hda5 .. then, /dev/hda6 and so on!
[07:06] <lmc_phx1> jacktheripper, tell me about slackware plz
[07:06] <mirak> hi
[07:06] <pramz> ahmed, it really depends on what aspects of Linux you want to learn

[07:06] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[07:06] <bluefox83> iphv37, are you using something on another partition?
[07:06] <pramz> if you are managing linux servers in your job, then I recommend taking an actual course
[07:06] <jacktheripper> lmc_phx1, its the most unixlike distro
[07:06] <aroo> kinections: you can do it with GParted on the LiveCD but only if you're comfortable with allocating disk space to certain partitions
[07:06] <aroo> kinections: if you don't want to explain partitions then it wouldn't help I guess :(
[07:06] <mirak> I have a problem with firestarter, after booting I need to restart it to have the routing occuring on the devices
[07:06] <mirak> for client pc
[07:06] <ahmed> any one tell me about which distribution is better to cybers and net cafe
[07:06] <aroo> kinections: I would sincerely suggest a fresh install though when it's a jump in 2 distribution versions like that
[07:07] <bluefox83> iphv37, i'm thinking the best idea would be to tell it to use the entire hard drive, let it format and partition, then go back and re-do the partitioning yourself
[07:07] <pramz> ahmed, it does not matter about the distribution, but you need sometjhing to calculate time used
[07:07] <newtubuntu> someone knows why I lose my top and bottom panels in workspaces I create ?
[07:07] <pramz> ahmed, and you can find some software options for that on freshmeat
[07:07] <kinections> aroo: yea, that's what i wanted to confirm, thanks.
[07:07] <Athanasius> is there a way to make ubuntu use more physical memory so that things load faster?  I have 3gb of memory
[07:07] <jacktheripper> can you typically compile things from freshmeat on ubuntu
[07:07] <vadroca> uu
[07:08] <vadroca> list
[07:08] <vadroca> !list
[07:08] <lmc_phx1> jacktheripper, on a day to day basis, what does that do for a guy? My only true unix experience is AIX from the way back machine and I find ubuntu much more useful, easy etc.
[07:08] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[07:08] <sebrock> which log shows the boot process?
[07:08] <aroo> Athanasius: processes only use as much as they need
[07:08] <pramz> jacktheripper, yea you can compile it but you might need to know how to make packages
[07:08] <aroo> Athanasius: allocating extra to a process that doesn't require it will do nothing
[07:08] <pramz> jacktheripper, debian-administration.net has a great howto on that
[07:08] <ahmed> all what i need
[07:08] <Athanasius> oh, ok
[07:08] <pramz> .org i mean
[07:08] <iphv37> bluefox83: ok! i thought it was an easy way to do that.. because if i continue with "using entire disk" it will make all the installation....
[07:08] <ahmed> playing interesting games
[07:08] <pramz> jacktheripper, http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/337
[07:08] <ahmed> and networking
[07:08] <iphv37> bluefox83: anyway, thanks!
[07:08] <ahmed> calculate time
[07:09] <ahmed> video and sound is no problem
[07:09] <bluefox83> iphv37, there is an option to stop after it's done formatting and pertitioning..
[07:09] <jacktheripper> lmc_phx1, it just works, stays out of your way, is stable, isnt dumbed down, simple config files control everything, /etc/rc.d/ simple bsd init scripts, doesnt have a dependency resolving package manager (which actually simplifies things)
[07:09] <pramz> ahmed, you will have to search for cybercafe software to manage the machines and calculate time+billing. We cannot help you with that here
[07:09] <ferronica>  there is new version of Nicotine available how to upgrade my old nicotine or ubuntu will update it ???
[07:09] <sebrock> which log shows the boot process?
[07:09] <ahmed> umm
[07:09] <iphv37> hmm.. ok! i'll see!! ty!
[07:09] <ahmed> ok thanks pramz
[07:09] <pramz> ahmed, you need to buy a book on Linux to learn linux faster.
[07:09] <jacktheripper> lmc_phx1, simplicity simplicity simplicity
[07:10] <iphv37> c ya'll later!
[07:10] <jacktheripper> lmc_phx1, did i mention its fast and stable
[07:10] <bluefox83> ferronica, if it's available in the repos, just  update in synaptic, and upgrade it..
[07:10] <ahmed> okey is no way to get online
[07:10] <ahmed> free pdf
[07:10] <ikonia> ahmed: this is ubuntu support
[07:10] <aroo> ahmed what is your native language
[07:10] <ahmed> arabic
[07:10] <ahmed> iam from egypt
[07:10] <jacktheripper> ferronica, you have to wait for some random guy to update the nicotine files on the repository....you may be waiting a few months
[07:10] <pramz> ahmed, you might be able to find torrents on it, but I don't really recommend copyright violations of any sort
[07:11] <ahmed> umm
[07:11] <aroo> ahmed: For the Arabic language or Saudi Arabia you are invited to join     #ubuntu-sa
[07:11] <pramz> ahmed, since it is something which will benefit you, its wise to buy it :)
[07:11] <lmc_phx1> jacktheripper, I certainly agree with that from a server perspective. I cant find a linux distro I am truly comfortable with from a security perspective. Seems like the automated installs add so much more than you need
[07:11] <jacktheripper> ferronica, you can try to install it yourself, with nicotine i believe all you do is ./nicotine or python ./nicotine
[07:11] <susz> is there a way to ensure that edgy -> feisty upgrade doesn't fail?
[07:11] <treyesh> hi
[07:11] <lmc_phx1> jacktheripper, but I have been loading different flavors for about 5 years waiting for one that would make a decent desktop and I finally found it!
[07:12] <mrfeetio> can rhythmbox get music of an i-pod?
[07:12] <treyesh> i need help with sound drivers
[07:12] <PriceChild> mrfeetio, can play it but not copy from afaik
[07:12] <chadeldridge> treyesh:  what is your question ?
[07:12] <susz> I have egdy cd but not feisty, and currently can't burn cd
[07:12] <mrfeetio> how can i copy it?
[07:12] <jacktheripper> lmc_phx1, security after full install:  chmod -x /etc/rc.d/rc.(things you dont like);  and then pico -w /etc/inetd.conf; (comment things out) killall -hup inetd
[07:12] <treyesh> i need help with sound drivers
[07:12] <jacktheripper> lmc_phx1, look further :p
[07:12] <ahmed> umm i mean opensource books
[07:12] <arcad3> mee too treyesh
[07:12] <ahmed> like wikipedia but more professional
[07:12] <bluefox83> susz, if you're 'going to upgrade, i would recommend letting the update manager handle the upgrade...
[07:12] <chadeldridge> that is not a question ...
[07:13] <susz> bluefox83: I did.  It crashed and now neither edgy or feisty will boot
[07:13] <asaup> how can i find my UUID ????????
[07:13] <treyesh> How  do I fix That
[07:13] <arcad3> !alsa
[07:13] <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
[07:13] <sebrock> can not anybody tell me why portmap is trying to start twice=???
[07:13] <iratik> help... can't sudo from any account -- still have a root account terminal open to fix it ...  sudo: pam_authenticate: Authentication service cannot retrieve authentication info. - -- please help me!!
[07:13] <bluefox83> susz, what the heck, that sucks....
[07:13] <reverseblade> treyesh, also #alsa
[07:13] <susz> bluefox83: yup ;)
[07:13] <jacktheripper> lmc_phx1, with your background, you should probably download it :0
[07:14] <jacktheripper> lmc_phx1, 12.0 will be out in a month or so
[07:14] <susz> I want to try again, but think only chance atm is reinstalling from scratch
[07:14] <lmc_phx1> jacktheripper, of course. in my production boxes, I've done as much as I know how. I guess its a little fear factor. Do I really need nm-applet running? know what I mean
[07:15] <jacktheripper> nm-applet?
[07:15] <natbet> network-manager
[07:15] <jacktheripper> lmc_phx1, yuo wont find any of that
[07:15] <WIdea> susz: that is what I always do, backup home, fresh install and restore home again
[07:15] <treyesh> still need help
[07:15] <Scunizi> mrfeetio, try amorak.. after backing up your songs and playlists with gtkpod
[07:15] <jacktheripper> lmc_phx1, it only does what you tell it
[07:15] <natbet> no, only if you want to connect to wireless networks using wpa, and even then I wouldn't use it, I'd use wicd
[07:15] <susz> WIdea: problem is I can't but a feisty cd
[07:15] <jacktheripper> lmc_phx1, if you tell it to run kde, well somethign like nm-applet might pop up, i dont know
[07:15] <jacktheripper> i only use xfce4
[07:15] <natbet> the computer is a stupid machine, does exactly what it's told
[07:16] <treyesh> im still having problems
[07:16] <jacktheripper> matbet: not really true anymore
[07:16] <treyesh> with audio drivers
[07:16] <natbet> that's true, it's getting smarter
[07:16] <lmc_phx1> jacktheripper, I like that.
[07:16] <WIdea> susz: can't buy or boot?
[07:16] <jacktheripper> package managers can do things you dont want them tto do sometimes
[07:16] <susz> WIdea: sorry, burn.
[07:16] <mike24> I installed Ubuntu and now I can not get into windows. When I select it from Grub it just goes to windows splash screen then reboots. I have searched online and can not find a solution, any help would be appreciated
[07:17] <jacktheripper> lmc_phx1, oh and... ./configure; make; make install will work 90% of the time out of the box
[07:17] <jacktheripper> as opposed to....ubuntus 3% of the time
[07:17] <natbet> yeah
[07:17] <cute_bettong> crimsun: are you there?
[07:17] <treyesh> i need help getting sound on my toshiba
[07:17] <susz> I have an edgy cd tho
[07:17] <WIdea> susz: no solution yet
[07:17] <jacktheripper> its nice having headers for all your libs by default :)
[07:17] <newtubuntu> someone knows why I lose my top and bottom panels in workspaces I create ?
[07:17] <natbet> there is always some odd dependency issue trying ./configure, make, make install in ubuntu
[07:18] <susz> WIdea: thanks.  that is actually useful.  I can stop wasting time trying :)
[07:18] <treyesh> wat should i do
[07:18] <lmc_phx1> jacktheripper, yeah I was configuring ffmpeg for flv encoding, holy hell, that was a mess!
[07:18] <jacktheripper> matbet: always
[07:18] <jacktheripper> lmc_phx1 want me to try over here and give you the results :p

[07:20] <treyesh> srry
[07:20] <treyesh> asla
[07:20] <RonzO> iratik, should be fine if you just reinstall the package

I can't bring it out of this so I have to force reboot, and if I don't realize its done this, my processor can overheat
[07:21] <chadeldridge> treyesh:  change to OSS and click the test button .. what happens ?

[07:23] <natbet> lmc_phx1: how do you install things in centos from command line, like apt-get in ubuntu. Is it up2date or is it something else?
[07:23] <chadeldridge> treyesh: all of them
[07:23] <treyesh> its only 2 bars
[07:24] <iratik> RonzO: already the newest version
[07:24] <jacktheripper> lmc_phx1, still....i dont agree with some philosophies that are rampant in distros today
[07:24] <RonzO> iratik, can you reinstall the package?
[07:24] <lmc_phx1> natbet, cent uses rpm but I always ditch that for apt
[07:24] <RonzO> iratik, also checking google for ya. =)
[07:24] <chadeldridge> treyesh:   under the devices tab you have (Sound events, Music and Movies, Audio Conf, and Default mixer) ?
[07:24] <mike24> I installed Ubuntu and now I can not get into windows. When I select it from Grub it just goes to windows splash screen then reboots. I have searched online and can not find a solution, any help would be appreciated
[07:24] <iratik> i ran apt-get install sudo -- says its already the newest version
[07:24] <iratik> i did cehck google - it was insane -- pulled up all sorts of debian bugs
[07:24] <lmc_phx1> cent is just fedora without the logos
[07:25] <natbet> ok, I thought it was just red hat without the support

[07:27] <jacktheripper> lmc_phx1, i also dont like waiting for new programs to show up in repositories
[07:27] <iratik> RonzO: how do i force reinstall of sudo ?

[07:29] <lmc_phx1> jacktheripper, I see, well it sounds like your main uses are server based, I agree that small, light and simple is best, but seriously, I'd put ubuntu on my employees desktops now.
[07:29] <Zodiac4> when I try to install ubuntu, I start the CD.. then it says after ive pressed "start or install ubuntu"; Mounting root file system, and then it stops.. It wont go further..
[07:29] <iratik> graft: you can use jack to reroute stereo mix into audacity

[07:30] <bluefox83> RonzO, that doesn't tell me which processor it's running or how fast it is..just says it's amd
[07:30] <jacktheripper> lmc_phx1, besides that yuo need to spend 3 minutes setting up xorg.conf, 1 second changing init tab to run level 4 (x mode)
[07:30] <mike24> any help.. I installed Ubuntu and now I can not get into windows. When I select it from Grub it just goes to windows splash screen then reboots. I have searched online and can not find a solution, any help would be appreciated

[07:31] <jacktheripper> lmc_phx1, of course
[07:31] <jacktheripper> but i start it with startx
[07:31] <sess> What would be the best method of tracking down the cause of my Suspend and hibernation lockups?  My laptop doesn't sleep or hibernate when I use gnome, and I tried installing uswsusp and executing s2ram and s2disk from teh console, but using either command the laptop locks up instead of turning off
[07:31] <iratik> root account unaffected - the other terminals logged into the server as other accounts unable to sudo  saying after entering the password  sudo: pam_authenticate: Authentication service cannot retrieve authentication info.
[07:31] <jacktheripper> i hate gdm/kdm
[07:31] <lmc_phx1> jacktheripper, I know, dumb question. but you never know - some people are super-hard-core
[07:31] <RonzO> hmmz
[07:31] <graft> not using x is not super-hard-core, it's luddite
[07:32] <jacktheripper> lmc_phx1, i dont think you understand :)
[07:32] <John`> whats the command to look at your computer stats in terminal?
[07:32] <toryl__> mike24: did you have to repartition an existing drive or did you use another drive for your ubuntu install?
[07:32] <jacktheripper> i use the terminal when its easier
[07:32] <iratik> RonzO: happened after a corruption in /etc/passwd
[07:32] <graft> John`: what stats?
[07:32] <lmc_phx1> oh, hell, me too
[07:32] <mike24> tory1__ i have 1 hard drive
[07:32] <jacktheripper> if there was ever a filemanager better than mc or mv/cp/rm for linux, id use it
[07:32] <yurri> why is envy not good for installing Nvidia drivers?
[07:32] <mike24> so i repartitioned it
[07:32] <John`> er cpu/ram hd
[07:32] <John`> etc.
[07:32] <live_anika> hola
[07:32] <graft> John`: um... well top will do some of that
[07:32] <RonzO> iratik, can you reinstall the passwd package? =)
[07:33] <graft> John`: df for disk usage
[07:33] <Arcad3> !lm_sensors
[07:33] <bluefox83> yurri, it tends to break things...
[07:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lm_sensors - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:33] <yurri> EVryone
[07:33] <yurri> why is envy not good for installing Nvidia drivers?
[07:33] <Zodiac4> any ubuntu pro's here I can query?
[07:33] <yurri> o ok
[07:33] <iratik> Everyone: is that a good idea on a production system?
[07:33] <jacktheripper> lmc_phx1, you should give it a chance :)
[07:33] <hjmills> hi - is it possible for me to connect my pc to my server using a second nic in each machine so I can benefit from the gigabit they both have even though they are on the same LAN at the moment (router slowing it to 100mbit)?
[07:33] <graft> iratik: is what a good idea?
[07:33] <yurri> then how do i install it bluefox83
[07:33] <X337> Hi guys, do someone know, how I am making some bash profil for my account in ubuntu 7.04 feisty fawn?
[07:33] <jacktheripper> lmc_phx1, the only bad thing is...wheny ou dont have to constantly baby sit your distro...you might stop learning because you already know everythign you need to know
[07:33] <iratik> graft: reinstall the passwd package?
[07:33] <iratik> there are 15 domains running on this system
[07:34] <graft> iratik: sure, why not? gets upgraded from time to time, so reinstalling should be okay
[07:34] <bluefox83> yurri, consult the forums...i haven't had to install drivers in a while so i don't remember
[07:34] <graft> iratik: if it's not okay, it'll complain
[07:34] <graft> iratik: just keep a root shell open so you can trouble shoot
[07:34] <RonzO> iratik, and you will be given the ubuntu e-finger
[07:34] <iratik> i've only got one root-shell left open
[07:34] <jacktheripper> lmc_phx1, know what i mean?
[07:35] <Zodiac4> when I try to install ubuntu, I start the CD.. then it says after ive pressed "start or install ubuntu"; Mounting root file system, and then it stops.. It wont go further..
[07:35] <tont> 
[07:35] <tont> I have a problem with the net between kubuntu and winxp if I write from konqueror smb://192.168.0.3 says time to me expired on the server 192.168.0.3 ..help me
[07:35] <toryl__> mike24: can you get to safe mode or the recovery console, or is it bombing out right away?
[07:36] <iratik> reinstalled -- same error
[07:36] <toryl__> mike24:  and did you put the new partition before your windows partition?
[07:36] <RonzO> tont, is filesharing on the xp machines?
[07:36] <lmc_phx1> jacktheripper, yeah, thats me. I've forgotten a ton of stuff I used to know, I just do the routine stuff anymore, check logs, diskspace etc.
[07:36] <iratik> did dpkg -l grep pam  ..... reinstall libpam-foreground, libpam-modules, libpam-runtime ?
[07:36] <mike24> tory_ i can not get in safe mode, it does same thing
[07:36] <mike24> tory_ i put new partition after windows
[07:37] <graft> argh... why, after eight years, is ALSA still such a crappy hack job?
[07:37] <tont> Ronzo: yes
[07:37] <yurri> .
[07:37] <yurri> .
[07:37] <yurri> .
[07:37] <yurri> .
[07:38] <RonzO> tont, the problem i always had was that i had to was set the files explicitly to be shared. also, make sure simple file sharing is turned on
[07:38] <toryl__> mike24:  listen, I had a similar problem with my install, and it was because of the repartitioning.  Boot.ini gets hosed up, did you check that?
[07:39] <iratik> hey RonzO: looked inside auth.log for errors from sudo ..   http://attachr.com/8440
[07:39] <mike24> tory1_ how do i check
[07:39] <mike24> it may be
[07:39] <chadeldridge> graft:  i totally agree with ya
[07:39] <mike24> tory1_ from ubuntu it says the file is read only so i cant modify it
[07:39] <RonzO> iratik, the only things that i have found thus far are to reinstall /etc/passwd
[07:39] <graft> also, why the hell do random things keep starting artsd, even when i tell them not to?
[07:40] <iratik> RonzO: improperly configured home account for the system
[07:40] <iratik> ?
[07:40] <graft> linux really sucks sometimes
[07:40] <iratik> because i had to reconstruct my /etc/passwd file from scratch
[07:40] <nny> ok so reconstructor wasn't it.. and I can't find any packages for make-live.. this is killing me, I used a program that repackaged all the installed stuff on my laptop and recreated an install cd, does anyone know what it is? I can't remember the name :(
[07:40] <RonzO> iratik, are there any user accounts working on the server, or are they not working, due to the corrupted passwd file?
[07:40] <toryl__> mike24: try installing Automatix and using it to install whatever NTFS driver it's got, that got me on the Windows partition in r/w mode.
[07:41] <sebrock> which init is ubuntu starting in?
[07:41] <graft> iratik: why reconstruct it from scratch? do you have a root shell open?
[07:41] <iratik> Yeah
[07:41] <graft> yeah what?
[07:41] <iratik> i have a root shell open it
[07:41] <graft> do you know what users are supposed to be on the system?
[07:41] <sebrock> which runlevel does ubuntu start in?=
[07:41] <mike24> tory1_ is automatix a ubuntu program? what do i need to do to boot.ini
[07:41] <graft> do you have any working copy of your passwd file?
[07:42] <iratik> graft: yeah... i have an /etc/passwd file - i've put together
[07:42] <graft> iratik: and are you using shadow passwords?
[07:42] <iratik> i dont know what that means
[07:42] <iratik> but there is an /etc/shadow
[07:42] <graft> iratik: does it have x instead of passwords in /etc/passwd
[07:42] <iratik> yes
[07:42] <iratik> i reconstructed /etc/passwd - but not /etc/shadow
[07:43] <graft> iratik: well /etc/shadow is easy - most of them shouhld be *... you just need real passwords for some
[07:43] <ahmed> any one know how to run sites uses activex in ubuntu
[07:43] <iratik> hmmm........
[07:43] <iratik> can i show you my /etc/shadow ?
[07:43] <graft> iratik: so make /etc/shadow with * for all of your users, then use your root shell & passwd to restore passwords
[07:43] <iratik> or would that breach the security ?
[07:43] <graft> iratik: i wouldn't
[07:43] <SlimeyPete> ahmed: use Internet Explorer via Wine
[07:43] <GuGa_Garcez> oi
[07:43] <chadeldridge> ahmed:  www.ies4linux.com
[07:44] <graft> iratik: since you have a root shell, you can use passwd <user> to recreate their password
[07:44] <SlimeyPete> ahmed: there's no other way to do it, as far as I know - ActiveX is a Microsoft technology.
[07:44] <ahmed> did you try it
[07:44] <toryl__> mike24: http://vlaurie.com/computers2/Articles/bootini.htm  might help re: boot.ini
[07:44] <SlimeyPete> ahmed: yeah, I've done it before. It works.
[07:44] <ahmed> which version
[07:44] <toryl__> mike24: http://www.getautomatix.com/ re: automatix
[07:44] <chadeldridge> ahmed:  im using 6 and it works fine
[07:44] <SlimeyPete> ahmed: IE6 works well
[07:44] <toryl__> mike24: it might not be boot.ini anyway but it's twitchy and might be a good place to start.
[07:44] <ewook> !automatix
[07:44] <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
[07:45] <Arcad3> whats the point of using iexplore on linux?
[07:45] <toryl__> bah I love it.
[07:45] <ahmed> chadeldridge : ok thanks that sound good
[07:45] <chadeldridge> arcad3:  activex
[07:45] <SlimeyPete> Arcad3: as ahmed said... activex, if you need it
[07:45] <chadeldridge> my company has 3 sites that require it ... so im screwed without it
[07:45] <Arcad3> i dont need it
[07:45] <mike24> tory1_ ya i have seen this probekm and no solution
[07:45] <Arcad3> if i need it i run windows
[07:45] <SlimeyPete> Arcad3: good for you. Neither do I, but some people do.
[07:46] <chadeldridge> i hear they are handing out cookies down the hall .. lokl
[07:46] <mike24> tory1, when i put in the windows install disk it doesnt even recognize the drive. but it is all there
[07:46] <Arcad3> i use only open source ..
[07:46] <pupi120290> i have ripped some music from a internetradio. in all mp3-files artistname and title of the song are saved. how can i automatically add to the mp3-file the albumname etc.
[07:46] <ahmed> Just one more thing for programers : what is the best editor for c,c++,java,php,etc
[07:46] <nny> Flannel, hey I am still having no luck here. Tried reconstructor.. it is only for creating cds with new packages, not the ones installed already. Couldn't find a good way to install make-live. I had a program that worked great, and automagically made an exact install cd from my current ubuntu install. any advice?
[07:47] <SlimeyPete> ahmed: eclipse has lots of features but is big and buggy. Otherwise there's kdvelop, vim, emacs...
[07:47] <Pelo> pupi120290, easytag
[07:47] <SlimeyPete> ahmed: personally, I use Quanta for PHP/HTML
[07:47] <pupi120290> ok ill check easytag out
[07:48] <toryl__> mike24:  how do you know it is still there?
[07:48] <sess> how is quanta
[07:48] <ahmed> Quanta is good but not the best i need one with much features like zend
[07:49] <sess> I think I heard quanta is the best web authoring app with wysiwyg + code editing features
[07:49] <sebrock> omg...
[07:49] <SlimeyPete> quanta's not really wysiwyg
[07:49] <sess> I used to use NVU way back when I first started making websites, but that blew
[07:49] <treyesh> i need help with my sound card i cant hear anything
[07:49] <SlimeyPete> it's mostly for editing code
[07:50] <sess> well, if I ever get this stupid suspend working right, Ill check it out

[07:51] <toryl__> mike24: you might also be able to get an error message from  Windows if you tell the BIOS not to reboot after it gets an error.  Worth checking.

[07:57] <Gorlis1> Evening - quick question in regards to reinstalling Ubuntu
[07:57] <jacktheripper> www.ies4tards.com
[07:57] <chadeldridge> activex needs to work in FF or Opera and then the problem wouldnt exist
[07:57] <Gorlis1> currently running 64 bit fiesty fawn, since upgrading become vaery unstable and wanted to move to 32 bit for app support
[07:57] <treyesh> wat should i do to fix this
[07:57] <Gorlis1> just wondered, if I backed up my user home folder to another hard drive
[07:57] <pj> can someone recomend me a video splitter for ubuntu?
[07:57] <jacktheripper> chadeldridge, like that would ever happen
[07:57] <Gorlis1> after reformating, could I simple then copy it back in?
[07:58] <adx> Can anyone see this error =->  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27808/ <=- , Should i use chmod or anythings to allow it?
[07:58] <chadeldridge> nope ... thats why im stuck with @ssaweful IE
[07:58] <lmc_phx1> chadeldridge, is that like the ie tab for firefox? For you designers out there, its close but not the exact dom as the real thing
[07:58] <Gorlis1> and if so, do I first create a different use?
[07:58] <Gorlis1> user?
[07:58] <Pelo> mike24, ok  now I'm gonna need you to take a screenshot of your hdd partition,   install gparted,  ( sudo apt-get install gparted)    select the hdd,  take a screenshot and upload it somewhere so I can see it
[07:58] <jacktheripper> opera doesnt want to get sued for implementing a security hole....or patent infringmenet
[07:58] <chadeldridge> lmc_phx1:  no its real IE running inside wine for linux
[07:58] <treyesh> where can i get drivers for a realtek sound card
[07:58] <pupi120290> Pelo: how to use easytag?
[07:59] <stefg> adx: close synaptic
[07:59] <adx> that sux , IE 6 on linux still slow , wait till wine 1.0
[07:59] <pj> videi splitter please
[07:59] <adx> i am not running it
[07:59] <pj> video splitter please
[07:59] <jacktheripper> im sure the fonts look great on linux lol

[07:59] <chadeldridge> i use it for 3 sites and thats it
[07:59] <Gorlis1> so, if I copied my user home folder is that enough?
[07:59] <Znortfl> Hey ubuntu people, I want to install the nVidia drivers but it complains about my X server still being active, how do I shut it down?
[07:59] <treyesh> i need sound drivers or help with sound for my tobshia
[07:59] <adx> chade , get firefox +IE theme
[07:59] <chadeldridge> znortfl:  sudo killall gdm
[08:00] <stefg> adx: two instances of the package manager try to access the database at once. reboot would be a simple solution
[08:00] <sess> at the console sudo killall gdm or kdm depending on what you're running
[08:00] <jacktheripper> gdm respawns
[08:00] <Arcad3> you need to configure X to use nvidia
[08:00] <chadeldridge> adx:  activex doesnt work there
[08:00] <adx> the only reason to install IE on wine is to get some DLLs to work with other apps
[08:00] <Znortfl> chadeldridge, are you sure gdm wont restart?
[08:00] <treyesh> how
[08:00] <jacktheripper> yuo have to do init 3
[08:00] <lmc_phx1> chadeldridge, so it is wine, can you run v7?
[08:00] <adx> aha , you are gamer?
[08:00] <jacktheripper> to stop gdm afaik :)
[08:00] <pj> can someone help me about the video splitter
[08:00] <sess> gdm wont respanw if you kill the processes
[08:00] <Pelo> pupeno_,  select the folder with your files in it on the left,  select one or more files in the middle , see the tags on the right,  , change the stuff you want, the little button next to the field applies it to all the selected files not just the one dislayed,  there is a green icon in the tool bar that will scann the file for tags if you need to , play around with it and figure it out
[08:00] <Znortfl> ok
[08:00] <Znortfl> thanks
[08:00] <chadeldridge> jacktheripper:  doesnt if you are on console2 .. thats how i did my install .. works fine as long as your arent in the xsession trying to kill it
[08:00] <adx> stefg , i get enouch from rebooting ;)
[08:00] <lmc_phx1> I dont know that I'd want to polute my pretty box with it!
[08:00] <Whitor> Hi, My Win Key <Super> isn't recognized... how do I fix this ?
[08:01] <chadeldridge> lmc_phx1:  there is a ver 7 beta .. works like hell though
[08:01] <pj> please help me
[08:01] <jacktheripper> chadeldridge, hence why i hate gdm/kdm
[08:01] <Flymate> pj, the video splitter?
[08:01] <toryl__> mike24: sorry man that was a Windows option, not BIOS--at least I can't find anything on how to get it in the BIOS.  That won't help.  Might be best to just redo everything unless someone else has any ideas.
[08:01] <chadeldridge> jack:  kinda agreed ...
[08:01] <lmc_phx1> Whitor, get a windows machine. just kidding. mine works when I said it was layout 104
[08:02] <lmc_phx1> jacktheripper, interesting
[08:02] <Whitor> hmm ... its a laptop...
[08:02] <pupi120290> how can I automatically add the albuname-tag with esaytag if the tags title and artistname are saved.
[08:02] <Whitor> Its set for Generic 104 ....
[08:02] <jacktheripper> startx and ctrl + alt + backspace > gdm/kdm
[08:02] <chadeldridge> jacktheripper:  what are you using ... i dont mind gdm .. i hate kdm though
[08:02] <Pelo> pupi120290,  enter it manualy in the field, and click the button next to the field for it to apply to all the selected files
[08:02] <lmc_phx1> I wont install 7 on my laptop, but I need it somewhere. I just dont want to wreck my ubuntu box with it either
[08:02] <sebrock> why are the rcX.d scripts named with S99 etc...
[08:03] <jacktheripper> chadeldridge, startx :)
[08:03] <chadeldridge> ahh
[08:03] <jacktheripper> init 3 > init 4
[08:03] <pupi120290> pelo: is there no way that some app can do this automatically. so that ill not enter the albumname manually?
[08:04] <Pelo> pupi120290, I think I just figuredout what you want to do, that only works when you have the cd and you are ripping from it,  the apps scans the cd for it's id and checks it against a db,  you can't do that automaticaly from a file
[08:04] <mike24> pelo, did you get the file ?
[08:04] <oknowton> I have a very strange problem.  I installed a 7.04 amd64 server, and after the initial boot, it comes straight up to a root bash prompt instead of a login prompt.  I tried reinstalling, and have the same issue.  I tried installing under vmware from the same media, and it works just fine.  I wasn't able to come up with a good google search for this one, and was wondering if I am the only person who has had this problem or not.
[08:05] <Pelo> mike24, the first one yes,  I asked you to get  me a screenshot of gparted
[08:05] <Pelo> mike24,  upload it to www.imageshack.us  when you have it and give me the link
[08:05] <pupi120290> mm okay thanks
[08:06] <Pelo> oknowton,   try this  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:06] <oknowton> no x server installed
[08:06] <oknowton> i'm not even getting the console login.  it is as though it is booted to the recovery console, i suppose.
[08:06] <nicklas> Hi!
[08:06] <lmc_phx1> jacktheripper, do you have experience with wine? I'm asking because I am considering a full switch to ubuntu now but there are a number of programs I have that wont run/no version on linux
[08:06] <Pelo> oknowton, maybe someone esle will know
[08:06] <nicklas> Where can I download drivers for D-Link AirPlus DWL-G630 for Ubuntu 7.04?
[08:07] <stefg> oknowton: the kernel seems not to find its root fs. so what you get is just the prompt from the initramfs-shell
[08:07] <chadeldridge> lmc_phx1:  what programs ?
[08:07] <oknowton> if i hit control-d to logout, it comes into the right runlevel and i get my login prompts
[08:07] <jacktheripper> lmc_phx1, ive used wine
[08:07] <oknowton> you just made me think to check, it is stopped in runlevel s
[08:07] <quebex12> lmc_phx1: the wine site has a list of compatible programs
[08:07] <jacktheripper> i used wine like 5 years ago
[08:08] <jacktheripper> for the last time :)
[08:08] <Pelo> jacktheripper,  it got much better
[08:08] <pramz> i use wine every now and then
[08:08] <pramz> mostly for games
[08:08] <pramz> but for some games i still reboot back to windows
[08:08] <chadeldridge> i use it for WoW and IE6

[08:12] <TheCreationist> Bassetts: "which tcl"
[08:12] <Pelo> Bassetts,  locate tcl from the terminal,  but this isn'T windows,  you donT' get a singel install folder for an app
[08:12] <lmc_phx1> jacktheripper, well he's still updating it, so thats a good sign.

[08:12] <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.

[08:19] <burnin> I'm performing a server install of feisty with software raid1 and during the create md process the install script is creating an md0 device with one of the two raid partitions before I've even completed the create process. Is this a known bug with a work around?
[08:20] <TheCreationist> haxx0r: Have you tried Ctrl-Alt-Backspace when it goes blank?  Is the entire system locked up, or just no video?
[08:20] <yurri> how do i enable sli?
[08:20] <yurri> ?
[08:20] <haxx0r> TheCreationist: locked up...nothing would happen
[08:21] <yurri> How do i enable nvidia sli/?
[08:21] <yurri> plz
[08:21] <TheCreationist> haxx0r: You running Feisty?
[08:21] <mat1> I have the live cd running I loaded dmraid I can see my raid info and have a partition setup for linux 1g for swap 11g for root gives me error that there are 2 file sys w/same mount point
[08:21] <haxx0r> TheCreationist: i am
[08:21] <b3rt> hiya
[08:21] <yurri> hi
[08:21] <TheCreationist> haxx0r: Okay, try completely removing all the nvidia packages you installed.
[08:21] <burnin> mat1, do you have two LVM partitions with the same label?
[08:22] <mat1> sorry whats an LVM
[08:22] <TheCreationist> haxx0r: Then reboot the computer.  When you get into Gnome, enable the desktop effects... it should automatically download, install, and configure the proper drivers for your card.
[08:22] <hellsing> how could I check squid is worked ?
[08:22] <TheCreationist> haxx0r: Works wonders for most people that do it that way.
[08:23] <haxx0r> TheCreationist: shall i remove the nvidia-kernel-module-files, too?
[08:23] <TheCreationist> haxx0r: Did you install them?  If so, then I would say yes.

I have just installed Feisty, and the font in the consoles look like the vga font, but the special danish utf-8 characters are shown wrong. I have tried to change the console setup by running sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup, and it solves the problem, but only until i change tty to the one running X or i reboot the computer... How do I make the font stick?

[08:30] <zenfool> make sure there are drivers for your raid card

[08:31] <jacktheripper> calyth, can you use tail -f /var/logfile ?
[08:31] <Whitor> jrib: oh wait ... 115 is correct
[08:31] <Pirate_Hunter>  hi people, ive just installed MagicISO with wine & it create a .Ink file on the Desktop cna I delete those files?
[08:32] <calyth> jacktheripper: I could, I just didn't want to dump everything to HD if i could
[08:32] <tlink_> Pirate_Hunter : the .lnk files are just shortcuts for launching the program in windows.
[08:32] <calyth> I know it would be visible if I was phsyically there and just do ctrl-alt-f7

[08:32] <calyth> jacktheripper: guess i'll do that instead

[08:33] <yeniklasor> jrib | How can I use find and exec?
[08:33] <jrib> Whitor: mine reports  keycode 115 (keysym 0xffeb, Super_L)   I think this is usually supposed to "just work" without messing with xmodmap
[08:33] <jacktheripper> you could use netcat :p
[08:33] <Baphomet__> Hi, anyone knows any program like zspoof for linux???
[08:33] <mat1> help
[08:33] <Whitor> jrib: I hoped so ... and it is recognized by xev ... reports  keycode 115 (keysym 0xffca, F13)
[08:34] <iratik> RonzO: fixed it!
[08:34] <Whitor> jrib: so how do I make <Super> map to F13 ?
[08:34] <iratik> RonzO: when i had copied a section of /etc/passwd from another system to myne trying to reconstruct a viable file -- i copied an account with the same uid!
[08:34] <Pirate_Hunter> Is it possible to get customised Emblems from the internet? and what about actual application icons for ubuntu?

[08:35] <jrib> Whitor: I think you should modify your xmodmap to make keycode 115 be Super_L
[08:35] <Whitor> jrib: What would that line look like ?
[08:35] <jrib> Whitor: change "F13" to "Super_L" :)
[08:36] <Whitor> jrib: trying now ...

[08:36] <imbecile> is "su apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop" correct if i want to remove kubuntu-desktop ?
[08:37] <jrib> imbecile: "sudo" instead of "su" but that command probably won't do what you want.  It only removes the meta-package "kubuntu-desktop", but none of its dependencies
[08:37] <tlink_> Pirate_Hunter : There's a few theme sites for gnome and kde that have icon packs and are quite easy to install.  You can create a launcher by right clicking on the desktop

[08:43] <graft> Scunizi: the IP stack is built into the kernel and i don't think you can disable user access to it
[08:43] <jrib> !compiling > james__ (see the private message from ubotu)
[08:43] <jrib> danroj: /join #ubuntu-es
[08:43] <PriceChild> james__, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[08:43] <PriceChild> danroj, /join #ubuntu-es
[08:43] <pike_> Shin_Gouki: even if you installed sun java it might not have updated the links in bin/. They could be pointing to the old java still.
[08:43] <james__> jrib: thanks
[08:43] <PriceChild> pike_, Shin_Gouki the java guide on the wiki explains how to update those ;)
[08:43] <danroj> thanks jrib
[08:44] <Praboy> Hello
[08:44] <oknowton> if anyone is interested, i found my problem.  The lvm name of my root filesystem has a -s in it.  /etc/event.d/rc-default has an if that greps for -s in /proc/cmdline, and it doesn't check to see if that is surrounded by spaces.
[08:44] <james__> actually, I'm trying to compile my own simple learning programs, not major software.... is there a command in terminal for this?
, its like that: i installed eclispe but there is just the gcj runtime...so how i FIND my jaav 6 runtume?
[08:44] <Scunizi> graft, Access can be disabled or even limited to a time range.  However, I'd like to restrict access by a cumulation of time over the day.
[08:44] <imbecile> DeFirence,  I've noticed you get alot more help when you are nice and obey the rules in here... just pastebin it and tell them please i need help with xxxxxxxx and its urgent and people are more apt to help... good luck! :)
[08:44] <haxx0r> TheCreationist: same result
[08:44] <Praboy> i need change the directorio of instalation of apt-get to .opt. Is it posible?
[08:44] <Praboy> i need change the directory of instalation of apt-get to .opt. Is it posible?
[08:44] <Praboy> i need change the directory of instalation of apt-get to /opt. Is it posible?
[08:44] <PriceChild> Praboy, no
[08:44] <Praboy> Ok
[08:44] <PriceChild> !repeat > Praboy (see pm from ubotu)
[08:44] <bronze> Can anyone tell me how to get a terminal in my background? I've tried the devilspie thingy but it gave me an error.
[08:45] <PriceChild> Praboy, what are you really trying to do?
[08:45] <Pirate_Hunter> If im reading this right on this computer my 224 extended ram is being used all up leaving only 4mb im guessing its mb of free ram... huh? I know theer si something wrong XP could run on these machine without a problem and i need this one for testing linux stuff/ how cna I make ubuntu not take all the memory?
[08:45] <LinkinPark> 
[08:45] <PriceChild> Pirate_Hunter, is the machine working though?
[08:45] <graft> Scunizi: MAYBE you can do it with iptables, but i dunno
[08:45] <markusmarky> does ubuntu have any console thing that will show you your hardware specs?
[08:45] <jrib> james__: basically  'gcc -o file file.c' compiles file.c and makes the executable called "file" in the current directory, then run it with: ./file
[08:45] <PriceChild> Pirate_Hunter, remember linux allocates more ram than needed to keep things going well
[08:45] <graft> Scunizi: actually you definitely can, it seems
[08:46] <alistair_blunt> hi everybody does anybody know how to reset audio settings to the original ubuntu 7 configuration?
[08:46] <danroj> yes
[08:46] <Scunizi> graft, cumbersome .. I was hoping to find a program like Dansguardian that incorporated the feature...
[08:46] <jacktheripper> r00tintheb0x, nein
[08:46] <markusmarky> Hi?
[08:46] <markusmarky> does ubuntu have any console thing that will show you your hardware specs?
[08:46] <alistair_blunt> so, please can u tell me
[08:46] <Praboy> PriceChild: I want to install software in /opt
[08:46] <graft> Scunizi: you could set a cronjob to implement some routing rules at specific times
[08:46] <Pirate_Hunter> PriceChild: it wors in the snese of apps but trying running something that needs visual interface like vmware or even a clip and the CPU goes straight to 100%
[08:46] <r00tintheb0x> markusmarky "sudo lshw"
[08:46] <Gnea> !repeat | markusmarky
[08:46] <ubotu> markusmarky: 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
[08:46] <graft> Scunizi: not that hard, just set a DROP rule for a specific user's outoging packets at a certain time
[08:47] <james__> jrib: great, that's all I needed.  tyvm
[08:47] <Pirate_Hunter> *works
[08:47] <pike_> markusmarky: alot of that is in /proc  like cat /proc/cpuinfo or meminfo  etc
[08:47] <markusmarky> yeah
[08:47] <Scunizi> graft, thanks .. I'll look into that..
[08:47] <mike24> any help.. I installed Ubuntu and now I can not get into windows. When I select it from Grub it just goes to windows splash screen then reboots. I have searched online and can not find a solution, any help would be appreciated
[08:47] <PriceChild> Praboy, no... "what are you trying to do"... not "what are you trying to do that you think will fix your problem"
[08:47] <markusmarky> I would like something "dialog-like"
[08:47] <markusmarky> brief info you know
[08:47] <PriceChild> markusmarky, system admin system monitor?

[08:48] <MrKeuner> hi, what ldap software comes with ubuntu?
[08:48] <gilo2> how do I find out what the package name for something like quicktime?
[08:48] <bronze> Can anyone tell me how to get a terminal in my background? I've tried the devilspie thingy but it gave me an error.
[08:48] <pike_> gilo2: apt-cache search quicktime   or whatever
[08:48] <timposey> My Thunder bird has an error.... i click to load the program it loads and then immediately shuts down.
[08:48] <jrib> bronze: what devilspie thingy?  pastebin
[08:49] <tlink_> mike24 :  did you have to repartition the drive when you installed ubuntu?
[08:49] <jrib> !quicktime > gilo2 (see the private message from ubotu)
[08:49] <Pirate_Hunter> gilo2: I dotn think theer is quicktime for ubuntu, something similar but not quicktime, best bet go google and use searhc citeria quicktime for ubuntu and check around or ask heer lol
[08:49] <jrib> !ldap > MrKeuner (see the private message from ubotu)
[08:49] <Boris> What does this cmd do?: "grub> device (hd0) /dev/sdb"
[08:49] <r00tintheb0x> markusmarky why would lshw not work.
[08:49] <r00tintheb0x> Im sure it has flags to make the hardware description breif.
[08:49] <markusmarky> r00723r0: i need something like a dialog thing
[08:49] <mike24> any help.. I installed Ubuntu and now I can not get into windows. When I select it from Grub it just goes to windows splash screen then reboots. I have searched online and can not find a solution, any help would be appreciated
[08:50] <Boris> Is anyone here familiar with grub commands?
[08:50] <gilo2> !winamp|gilo2
[08:50] <Pirate_Hunter> gilo2: you could install it if thats what you want through wine or crossover your choice?
[08:50] <r00tintheb0x> markusmarky i dont know "like a dialog thing" is.
[08:50] <markusmarky> how do you configure you keyboard from console?
[08:50] <PriceChild> !anyone | Boris
[08:50] <markusmarky> is there any tool to do this?
[08:50] <ubotu> Boris: 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?

[08:50] <xenon> hi all
[08:50] <bronze> jrib, I followed this guide very accurately, but the best thing I ever got was a terminal with transparent background but still with borders.

[08:51] <gilo2> thanks for the help.
[08:51] <markusmarky> Pirate_Hunter: which option?
[08:52] <themoebius> how can I replace the official nvidia drivers with the nvidia-glx package?

[08:52] <ed__> does anyone here have experience setting up and getting nomachine NX server to work?
[08:52] <t2> hi, can someone help me install a gkrellm theme i got from their website ?  i can't find any instructions is it so simple ?  please point me to a way to install this on ubuntu feisty
[08:53] <chadeldridge> themoebius:  if you install the nvidia-glx package it should reconfig X to use it and not the nvidia one .. although i highly doubt it will actually remove the nvidia package
[08:53] <ed__> please help
[08:54] <pike_> themoebius: run the ./NVisntaller.sh --uninstall    <-- i think --uninstall is right
[08:54] <tlink_> t2 : if I remember correctly, there is a .gkrellm directory in your home directory, and in there is a skins folder?  been a while, not sure if thats correct still
[08:54] <chadeldridge> there you go .. pike to the rescue
[08:54] <sldkfj> themoebius, I do it this way:  first hit ctrl alt backspace ...then do ctrl alt f1 ....then do sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[08:54] <themoebius> ok I'll give it a shot
[08:54] <unsightfull> hi folks, does anybody have any experience in compiling NetworkManager from svn on feisty?
[08:55] <t2> tlink_:  yes found the folder.  thanks for the help
[08:55] <piotr_> hi all
[08:55] <chadeldridge> just as a question ... why would you use the glx driver over the official driver?  are there benefits to this?
[08:55] <sldkfj> themoebius, correction........... I do it this way:  first hit ctrl alt backspace ...then do ctrl alt f1 ....then do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop ...then do sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[08:55] <pike_> chadeldridge: using a package has the advantage of not having to rerun installer when you upgrade the kernel during an update or something
[08:56] <piotr_> anybody out there with a broadcom bcm43xx card=
[08:56] <chadeldridge> pike__:  true, but aside from that fact is one better than the other (running it again isnt an issue once used to doing it)
[08:56] <piotr_> I installed my wlan card, network manager can find some wlans but it doesn't work to connect to these wlans
[08:57] <kjw75> how can I tell what my kernel version is?
[08:57] <unsightfull> uname -a
[08:57] <unsightfull> in a terminal

[08:57] <kjw75> k, thanks unsightfull
[08:57] <unsightfull> np
[08:57] <kjw75> and what is the latest kernel version for ubuntu?

[08:58] <markusmarky> Hello
[08:58] <pder> Is it possible to install Ubuntu on an IBM compatible personal computer system?
[08:58] <piotr_> would be great if someone could me give me some hint how to improve the connection
[08:59] <sldkfj> piotr_, there's file in Universe:      bcm43xx wrcttr
[08:59] <sldkfj> something like that
[08:59] <unsightfull> @pder: definetly
[08:59] <chadeldridge> pder:  sure is
[08:59] <markusmarky> is it possible to configure the keyboard layout from the command line?
[08:59] <unsightfull> @pder what kind of computer exactly?
[09:00] <jackcaribe> ciao
[09:00] <chadeldridge> unsightful ... i was just thinking the same thing and waiting for IBM PS1 or something
[09:00] <sldkfj> piotr_,  here it is:  BCM43xx-fwcutter
[09:00] <jackcaribe> !addon
[09:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about addon - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:00] <pder> it is a Intel Pentium based personal computer system.
[09:00] <xnix> if i have 2 sound cards, can anyone tell me how to tell my system what order to load the modules in?
[09:00] <cyberalleyguy> where can I get some help with net installs?
[09:00] <Whitor> jrib: Turns out I didn't need .Xmodmap at all! All I needed to do was change <Super> to <Super_L> !
[09:01] <Whitor> Works fine
[09:01] <Pirate_Hunter> markusmarky: yes it is possible but it would be far easier to do it from system unless ur trying to give extra clicks to keyboard by using Xserver
[09:01] <unsightfull> @pder could you be a little more specific? when was it build?
[09:01] <Pirate_Hunter> where is the waste basket for root?
[09:01] <unsightfull> in /root/.Trash
[09:01] <ewook> Pirate_Hunter: beneath the /root ?
[09:02] <Shin_Gouki> pricechild i have it installed because i have a webstart link in application menu... , but to which DIRECTORY it did install ?? where do i kook after this?
[09:02] <pder> It is a Pentium 166 with 64 MB RAM and 4GB HD
[09:02] <Pirate_Hunter> ewook? huh didnt see anything will root nautilus again to find out give me a sec
[09:02] <unsightfull> .. that is an old computer
[09:02] <pder> circa 1997
[09:02] <kjw75> hmm, got booted off of vista for it to do configuration updates, freaked me out...anyhow, can someone tell me what the latest kernel update is for ubuntu?
[09:02] <unsightfull> I see
[09:02] <Isaac_> Mmph
[09:02] <PriceChild> Shin_Gouki, sorry I can't remember this conversation...? What are you looking for?
[09:02] <Isaac_> How'd I get here?
[09:02] <unsightfull> I don't think you should be running ubuntu on such a computer
[09:02] <chadeldridge> pder:  it might run ... but its gonna be slow (really really slow)
[09:03] <unsightfull> awefully slow
[09:03] <unsightfull> indeed
[09:03] <pder> maybe DSL?
[09:03] <unsightfull> I don't know I have had mixed experiences with taht
[09:03] <unsightfull> that
[09:03] <unsightfull> you could try
[09:03] <piotr_> sldkfj:that's what I used
[09:03] <Pirate_Hunter> ewook: nope only desktop and if i root file system I cna only see tmp which is not what i want
[09:03] <Shin_Gouki> pricechild i installed java but in need to specify the path of it in eclipse, i dont know which directory??the sun jre installed to
[09:03] <ewook> Pirate_Hunter: like unsightfull said. beneath /root/.Trash
[09:03] <imbecile> anybody used democracy play? if so would you recommend it?
[09:04] <imbecile> player*
[09:04] <pder> what about just a base ubuntu install with fluxbox or similar?
[09:04] <PriceChild> Shin_Gouki, oh
[09:04] <TaJMoX> pder : pentium 166 should be ok as long as you don't use gnome
[09:04] <TaJMoX> pder - yes try fluxubuntu
[09:04] <chadeldridge> pder:  yeah fluxbox would work
[09:04] <derekjww> hello
[09:04] <Shin_Gouki> pricechild i just use apt-get command like in ttorials, sooo which path? were does apps go?
[09:04] <Pirate_Hunter> ewook: root folder only has desktop unless running through root deletes apps permanently which is messed up, but than im using a script to get nauttilus as root
[09:04] <TaJMoX> pder - epiphany browser too
[09:04] <piotr_> sldkfj: thanks, I'll check it out
[09:05] <derekjww> I have these movie files but when I try to play them, the sound skips and sometimes quits?
[09:05] <pder> is epiphany lighter weight than firefox?
[09:05] <ewook> Pirate_Hunter: .Trash is 'hidden'.
[09:05] <PriceChild> Shin_Gouki, the wiki tells you to: update-java-alternatives -l
[09:05] <ewook> or, so I would assume.
[09:05] <unsightfull> with 64 mb i'd recommend links :-o
[09:05] <chadeldridge> pirate_hunter:  you can just sudo nautalis and see those files your looking for
[09:05] <pder> maybe dillo
[09:05] <TaJMoX> pder - yes its very light and a good browser
[09:05] <t2> i have a modern desktop system running xubuntu feisty and i also added kde.  I am unable to suspend-to-ram on this machine,  in fact the power managment ACPI tab in KDE control center does not exist !   i've looked all over for a solution.  do i need to recompile the kernel as some programs from synaptic told me to ?  I cannot see a suspend-ram option when i try to shutdown KDE
[09:05] <unsightfull> dillo would work
[09:05] <Pirate_Hunter> ewook: rofl i keep forgeting that this OS does that lol

[09:11] <derekjww> imbecile: it still does it

[09:14] <josh_> can anyone help me update to the new thunderbird email client
[09:14] <ir2> only thing I didn't do is compiling kernel

[09:14] <kbrooks> i cant use it, even with everything connected together. it is a d-link wbr 1310. it has worked before!
[09:14] <ed__> ....
[09:14] <j85wilson> ir2: give me a minute to look at your link
[09:14] <Isaac_> Right
[09:14] <burnin> cyberalleyguy, tcpdump is a great utility to determine if packets are making it where they need to be.

[09:16] <imbecile> derekjww,  are you running beryl?
[09:16] <ir2> I'm running compiz fusion :D
[09:16] <derekjww> imbecile: I am not running beryl but I have it installed
[09:16] <cyberalleyguy> burnin, there are no network issues, after I go ahead an use the regular us.archive for the install, I can change the sources.list file and get my updates from the mirror.
[09:16] <ed__> does anyone have experience setting up and getting to work nomachine NX server?
[09:16] <ir2> why are you running beryl, get compiz !!!
[09:16] <ir2> compiz is better ...

[09:17] <pike_> derekjww: id check another file to make sure its not just an issue with it, also you might install vlc and see how the file plays to rule out codec issue as best you can
[09:17] <burnin> cyberalleyguy, dunno, maybe its a bug in the install scripts, I haven't tried using a local mirror yet, I'm struggling with a software raid bug in the installer on feisty at the moment. :(

[09:17] <imbecile> pike_,  he said vlc didnt work either
[09:17] <cyberalleyguy> burnin, I have gotten an error saying I do not have a Release file in my mirror

[09:17] <ubotu> kbrooks: 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
[09:17] <j85wilson> ir2: I'm reading what you've done
[09:18] <pike_> derekjww: i guess i should read the posts more carefully :) sry
[09:18] <derekjww> pike_: alright
[09:18] <cyberalleyguy> burnin, OK thanks, I will see if I can get some answers from the forums.
[09:18] <j85wilson> ir2: wait did you say you didn't run the flb-script.sh?  Or did you?  Not clear.
[09:18] <derekjww> imbecile: how do I check my windows manager
[09:18] <derekjww> ?
[09:18] <ir2> I didn't
[09:18] <themoebius> ok I've succeeded in replacing the official nvidia drivers with the nvidia-glx package and it works, but when I load X I only get 800x600 even though 1280x1024 is specified on the Modes line in my xorg.conf. I also have the frequencies of my monitor correct and this resultion worked before with the nv driver...
[09:18] <j85wilson> ir2: kk
[09:18] <j85wilson> ir2: I'll skip the script then.
[09:19] <ir2> :P

[09:19] <slop> help!  i have two PCs, one with vista, one with feisty.  my printer is connected to the vista box.  i need to be able to access that printer from my buntu box.  can anyone point me in the right direction?
[09:19] <geck0> so when I click a program, in the task bar it will say "starting firefox..." for instance?
[09:19] <imbecile> derekjww, well you can open up beryl-manager right click on icon and "select window manager"
[09:19] <southafrikanse> Hello. Is there any way to speed up Ubuntu's loading?
[09:19] <j85wilson> ir2: did you do all of these steps at once, and then you had no sound?
[09:19] <SlimG2> Is it possible to add a useraccount without password?
[09:19] <j85wilson> ir2: or did you do each one, and then test things out
[09:19] <vrkhans> hi i would like to install realplayer
[09:19] <ir2> well, I didn't compile kernel, everything else I did ...

[09:20] <imbecile> hey guys, I want to install this really cool font from http://www.blambot.com/fonts.shtml what type of font do i d/l and where do i install them to?
[09:21] <j85wilson> ir2: if it were me, I would go back and undo each one, in reverse order (undo the last one you did first), and test things to see if you have sound at each step.  But let me keep glancing down the list to see if there is something obvious.

[09:21] <ir2> is there any command to add sound card ?
[09:21] <slop> Pici: that document is the opposite of what i need to do...it explains how to share an ubuntu printer with windows.  i need to share the printer on my windows machine with my ubuntu machine.
[09:21] <ir2> maybe that's it :P
[09:21] <ir2> maybe ubuntu forgot xD
[09:22] <geck0> does anyone know how to add the "activity meter", like ubuntu has, to Xubuntu so when I click a program, in the task bar it will say "starting firefox..." for instance?

[09:23] <ir2> alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[09:24] <j85wilson> ir2: ahhh...
[09:24] <southafrikanse> How can I speed up Ubuntu's boot? It takes 2 minutes for me to log on
[09:25] <Gnea> southafrikanse: do you have any external usb devices plugged in?
[09:25] <j85wilson> ir2: I'd like to see the output of your sudo lsmod, but it'll take up too much space in irc
[09:25] <j85wilson> ir2: don't need sudo for lsmod
[09:25] <southafrikanse> No
[09:25] <southafrikanse> Gnea: No

[09:31] <colin_> Hi Everyone; I'm trying to install acer.acpi on my laptop so i can turn on my onboard wifi with the front button. I downloaded the code from google's code database. Apparently I need to compile it but when i type ./configure it craps out, says "file or dir cant be found" I guess I need to find someone or somewhere where I can get the basics of compiling code
[09:31] <southafrikanse> Gnea: Notebook LG P1-5005P - Intel Core Duo Processor T2300E (1.66GHz/2Mb/FSB667Mhz) with 1Gb RAM
[09:31] <j85wilson> ir2: it looks like you have the right modules for using sound loaded, but not 100% sure as I don't know your hardware
[09:32] <ir2> yes
[09:32] <Gnea> southafrikanse: nice. what version of ubuntu?
[09:32] <gernux> au revoir I understand nothing ? !!!

[09:35] <kbrooks> isn't that easy to try and answer to!!!!!
[09:35] <Gnea> kbrooks: only when you don't whine.

[09:37] <penguisher> Hi, can anyone help me with my problem? i want to install ubuntu 7.0.4 32 bits. if i boot the cd i get a window and i choose to install ubuntu then a loadingbar appeared when the loading was completed my screen turned black and gave the message "no input" but i actually heard the startup sound of ubuntu. I have a AMD 64 x2 4400+, 2gb ram, His radeon x1900xtx
[09:37] <kbrooks> yehweh, no, my ethernet thru router doesn't work... hold on...
[09:37] <stu-mc> only clever people who have used linux more than 4 days can help in here im sure
[09:37] <rogerro> yehweh: sure when i remove stick/cardreader - everything's fine, but it's strange to disconnect "internal card reader for every boot or use custom switch for it" ....
[09:37] <cyb3rphr33k> oh...
[09:37] <j85wilson> ir2: try sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils start
[09:37] <kbrooks> natbet, only one light - power - is on.
[09:38] <j85wilson> ir2: just a shot in the dark
[09:38] <SlimG2> jrib: Thank you, I'll surely find it there
[09:38] <boudiccas> Does anyone use either KnowIt or NoteCase Pro please?
[09:38] <natbet> kbrooks: can you get an IP address from the router when you plug your computer into it?
[09:38] <yehweh> rogerro: never had that problem
[09:38] <jenetik> How do I keep applications from blinking/flashing light blue on my taskbar?  (whatever workspace I am on, they will switch to it and blink light blue)
[09:38] <kjw75> why when I run some scripts it tells me that ubuntu is not using BASH as its shell?
[09:38] <cyb3rphr33k> damn! im out of cigs...
[09:38] <Gnea> southafrikanse: are you able to pastebin the output of dmesg?
[09:38] <ir2> No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found.
[09:38] <Gnea> !pastebin
[09:38] <jenetik> or even the same workspace it flashes blue and is annoying
[09:38] <schwagner> penguisher: this probably won't fix your problem, but if you have an amd 64, why don't you run the 64 bit version?

[09:39] <rogerro> but i would love to find some solution for it, it's very annoying
[09:39] <stu-mc> Gnea: agreed
[09:39] <flubber> does anybody know how to fix the sound for a laptop
[09:39] <Gnea> stu-mc: i quit 5 months ago, feels great
[09:39] <cyb3rphr33k> well im planing to quit, but this driver frustration is driving me crazy
[09:39] <Gnea> cyb3rphr33k: you don't 'plan' to quit... you just do it :)

[09:40] <Music_Shuffle> !hi | scorp123
[09:40] <ubotu> scorp123: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[09:40] <kbrooks> natbet, i doubt it, and i really don't want to do so now until i have a concrete solution.
[09:40] <cyb3rphr33k> it just sux, im not an experienced linux user but i never thought that making 3d work would be such a pain...
[09:40] <scorp123> cyb3rphr33k: depends on your graphics card .....
[09:40] <bruenig> making nvidia 3d work was a snap
[09:40] <Gnea> kbrooks: first of all, you come in here demanding help, then when someone helps you you turn it down? get out...
[09:40] <natbet> kbrooks: did you power-cycle the router and modem?
[09:41] <scorp123> bruenig: bingo!
[09:41] <cyb3rphr33k> well... its ATI 9200 and from what i've realized aTI drivers are hard to install or something like that
[09:41] <bruenig> cyb3rphr33k, ati doesn't support linux
[09:41] <kbrooks> Gnea, i did not turn it down.
[09:41] <scorp123> cyb3rphr33k: plus they suck big time and aren't really stable ....
[09:41] <cyb3rphr33k> it aint anything extreme but i play many games in windoz
[09:41] <Gnea> maybe i should get out and stop helping people who think that the world owes them something for nothing.
[09:41] <yehweh> kbrooks: you do realize this is not a customer service line. right?
[09:42] <scorp123> yehweh: I just joined this channel ... so may I ask what the issue is? :)
[09:42] <kbrooks> Gnea, i simply refreshed the modem to see why it had a light off. but it fixed itself.
[09:42] <stu-mc> lol @ yehweh
[09:42] <kbrooks> yehweh, right
[09:42] <kbrooks> natbet, do you want me to do that?
[09:42] <anoobis> hi, need help installing... :s have got 32bit 6.06 on a dvd and 64bit 7.04 on a cd neither will get anywhere useful, i've got amd X2 4200+, 7950gt if that makes any difference got an error coming up on 6.06 if you want that read out. have installed using 6.06 dvd on a 32 bit machine before
[09:43] <natbet> kbrooks: so you started your computer and there was no internet right?
[09:43] <Gnea> kbrooks: ok then, don't complain about now having a concrete solution and show some respect if you do want one.
[09:43] <cyb3rphr33k> i have this magazine that says i should input sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx

[09:44] <schwagner> cyb3rphr33k: what's your graphics card?
[09:44] <yehweh> scorp123: Nothing its all good I guess
[09:44] <j85wilson> ir2: perhaps
[09:44] <j85wilson> ir2: what are permissions on /dev/  sound devices?
[09:44] <scorp123> yehweh: "Internet don't work" .... yeah, I love *those* error descriptions :-)  LOL.
[09:44] <chapium> anyone know why when I wake my laptop up from standby, my wireless disapears?  ath0 is not even listed in ifconfig
[09:44] <natbet> kbrooks: well, I've had many d-link routers and they usually just need a power cycle, I'd try doing that. and see if you can get on, if not reset it to factory defaults. if that doesn't do it. the router is probably bricked
[09:45] <Gnea> chapium: you may need to re-authenticate with the router
[09:45] <kbrooks> natbet, definitely not bricked
[09:45] <yehweh> scorp123: I know man half the problem is to get them to describe the problem ;)
[09:45] <kbrooks> natbet, let me c/p your comment to text editor...
[09:45] <j85wilson> ir2: what are permissions on the sound devices in /dev ?
[09:45] <The_Fury> anybody know why literally every file that I download is corrupt?
[09:45] <scorp123> chapium: some devices don't take standby or hibernation that well and may need reloading of their modules ....
[09:45] <kbrooks> natbet, ok, thanks, brb.
[09:45] <chapium> scorp123: how might i reload a module? I'm pretty sure i know what the module is called
[09:46] <Gnea> The_Fury: what makes you think that?
[09:46] <ir2> rot, crw-rw----
[09:46] <scorp123> chapium: you have an atheros right?
[09:46] <ir2> *root
[09:46] <Crankeye> hey im running dual nvidia gefore 7600 (SLI)with the nvidia-glx driver, upon the new kernel install 20-16 gdm freezes when it starts (turns balck) any ideas??
[09:46] <chapium> scorp123: that is correct
[09:46] <j85wilson> ir2: are they root root (user and group)?
[09:46] <The_Fury> Becausee when I try to extract the archive, it tells me that the crc check failed, that the MD5Sum is wrong, or the bzip2 archive is corrupt
[09:46] <nny> ok, so I have a disk here I created by copying over root dir and kept perms etc., but i have an issue
[09:46] <The_Fury> this goes for all updates that I try to install
[09:47] <ir2> sry, root audio ...
[09:47] <nny> using 2.6.15, can't seem to figure out what /dev/foo it wants in fstab
[09:47] <Gnea> Crankeye: you need to update the nvidia drivers
[09:47] <The_Fury> as well as individual packages I download
[09:47] <j85wilson> ir2: damn....
[09:47] <Gnea> !nvidia > Crankeye
[09:47] <penguisher> hi, could someone pleasse help me? I want to install ubuntu 7.04 32 bits, if i boot the cd and i chose the option install ubuntu (i also tried install ubuntu in safe graphics mode) al loadbar appears, when it is fully loaded my screen turns black and gives the message "no input" but i can hear the startup sound of ubuntu. My specs are: AMD 64 X2 4400+, ati radeon x1900xtx, 2gb ram,
[09:47] <ir2> ls
[09:47] <chad_afk> stupid question .. but do all linux distros support pam and iptables
[09:47] <nny> does anyone care to try and split this hair with me?
[09:47] <Crankeye> Gnea the drives in the repository are old?
[09:47] <scorp123> chapium: try this .... sudo modprobe ath_wifi ......  <== not sure, sorry :(
[09:47] <Crankeye> should I manualyl download and install the drivers fromt he NVIDIA website?
[09:47] <Gnea> Crankeye: no, the kernel driver is out of sync with the new kernel
[09:47] <j85wilson> ir2: Well, I'm afraid that I'm going to pass this one off to others.  I don't know anything else to ask you or have you try, except for undoing the tweaks in reverse order.
[09:48] <Gnea> Crankeye: no, follow the directions that ubotu pm'd you
[09:48] <Crankeye> gotcha
[09:48] <j85wilson> all: Anybody else can help ir2 with sound having disappeared following tweaks to Kubuntu?
[09:48] <chapium> scorp123: thanks, i'll try that next time
[09:48] <Gnea> The_Fury: example?
[09:48] <ir2> how can I reconfigure alsa ?
[09:48] <ir2> (ubuntu)
[09:48] <ir2> :P
[09:48] <k-os> how do i remove the entire gnome desktop in Edgy?
[09:48] <j85wilson> ir2: dpkg-reconfigure alsa
[09:48] <chapium> scorp123: as far as i can tell my options are ath_rate_sample, ath_pci, wlan, or ath_hal
[09:49] <ir2> maybe this will help :P
[09:49] <yehweh> k-os: sudo apt-get remove gnome-desktop
[09:49] <Gnea> ir2: sudo dpkg-reconfigure alsa
[09:49] <j85wilson> ir2: possibly
[09:49] <k-os> thanks
[09:49] <scorp123> chapium: ath_wlan then ....
[09:49] <penguisher> could someone pleasse hlep me
[09:49] <ir2> hmm, Package `alsa' is not installed and no info is available. :P
[09:49] <cyb3rphr33k> i still get the same msg...
[09:49] <chapium> !help
[09:49] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[09:49] <The_Fury> well, if I go to the update icon and update my system, it'll download tons of the updates, try to install them, and have an error. it will tell me "failed to fetch ......... MD5Sum mismatch" for like all 79 updates.......or tried downloading the kismet source tarball, and guess what? I get a crc check error
[09:49] <j85wilson> ir2: for future reference, test things in between tweaks.  That way you know which one is breaking things.
[09:49] <scorp123> chapium: another idea: Try the Ubuntu forums ... I am sure someone has the same problem, so maybe someone posted a solution too?
[09:50] <cyb3rphr33k> OpenGL vendor string: Tungsten Graphics, Inc.
[09:50] <ir2> ok, tnx
[09:50] <j85wilson> ir2: sudo apt-get install alsa
[09:50] <Polyneux> I recently had to restart my router and modem and such and now the internet on this feisty computer is painfully slow, is there some setting or someatt that I neglected to change?
[09:50] <The_Fury> everything that I get is corrupt
[09:50] <cyb3rphr33k> it should be ati or something...
[09:50] <The_Fury> could it be my card? my internet connection?
[09:50] <truthfatal> Good morning (afternoon)!
[09:50] <scorp123> !ask | penguisher
[09:50] <chapium> scorp123: i'll play with it some

[09:56] <gumby600m> I want to prevent a kernel module ("tg3") from loading at startup, so I put it ("tg3") in my "/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist" file... but "lsmod | grep tg3" says it's loaded in the kernel.  Of course, I can manually "modprobe -r tg3" after my computer boots, but there has to be a way... how do I prevent modules from loading on startup???
[09:56] <yehweh> a

[09:58] <natbet> ir2: in a terminal enter asoundconf list
[09:58] <natbet> ir2: what does that say?
[09:58] <ir2> Names of available sound cards:
[09:58] <ir2> CK8S
[09:58] <ir2> UART
[09:59] <SlimG> How can root force a user to logoff?
[09:59] <verb3k_> bobrik, use the alternate install CD ...( i.e. Text mode installation)
[09:59] <scorp123> SlimG: kill his "bash"
[09:59] <natbet> ir2: ok now do asoundconf set-default-card CK8S
[10:00] <ir2> ok, I did ...
[10:00] <SlimG> scorp123: thanks, worked
[10:00] <natbet> is there the volume control by the clock?
[10:00] <natbet> ir2: double click on the volume control thing by the clock
[10:01] <ir2> No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found.
[10:01] <p1ls> hey could someone help me setting up proxy
[10:01] <natbet> hmm
[10:02] <bipolar> I've got a problem installing Feisty on a new AMD64 box and it's stumping me. I was able to boot the live cd if I use the noapic kernel option, but now that it's installed, it hangs at "Reading files needed to boot...".
[10:02] <southafrikanse> Gnea: How do I pastebin?
[10:02] <banlieue> hey, i've a quick question someone is hopefully able to answer
[10:02] <bipolar> I can't get any further then that
[10:02] <natbet> ir2: what did you install when this happened?
[10:02] <banlieue> how or where do I setup the default size of unmaximized windows for nautilus?
[10:02] <scorp123> bipolar: you got the 64-bit version?
[10:02] <ir2> w8
[10:03] <banlieue> because it keeps forgetting/resetting the size whenever I maximize a window
[10:03] <f70> when is the next ubuntu coming out?
[10:03] <natbet> f70: april
[10:03] <ir2> I only followed one web page :P
[10:03] <banlieue> f70: the current ubuntu was released just recently ;o
[10:03] <p1ls> hey could someone help me setting up proxy
[10:04] <ir2> I'll give you link
[10:04] <natbet> f70: october rather, I'm sorry, it's october and april release cycles
[10:04] <Nookie^> hi! can someone help me out with openoffice to see if their x also freezes when opening ppt file which i have found before i report it as a bug
[10:04] <bipolar> scorp123: no. the 32 bit one
[10:04] <natbet> ir2: sounds good
[10:04] <southafrikanse> Gnea: Here it is: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27835/
[10:05] <scorp123> p1ls: sorry man, my crystal ball is out for repairs, so I have no idea what "setup proxy" means :-)
[10:05] <CommonAlgorithms> Yo all, I recently installed Ubuntu, and I can't get it to install from the LiveCD, and I get errors with the X-server
[10:05] <ir2> but that site is for fasting booting :S
[10:05] <banlieue> any thoughts on the unmaximized windows size in nautilus?
[10:05] <ir2> so I guess that's not it :P
[10:05] <scorp123> p1ls: are you talking about installing  a proxy server or are you talking about getting your browser to work over a proxy ... ??
[10:05] <ir2> and I can't remember what I did else :P
[10:05] <Tibmol> how can i update my ubuntu 6.06 dd to 6.10 (online)?
[10:05] <natbet> ir2: did you uninstall anything for dependencies?
[10:06] <scorp123> Tibmol: check the Ubuntu forum ... there is a "how to".
[10:06] <ir2> no
[10:06] <dlmw3> hi
[10:06] <ir2> Tibmol: sudo update-manager
[10:06] <natbet> ir2: so you installed something to make it boot faster?
[10:06] <Nookie^> can someone also open this file http://www.isk.kth.se/kursinfo/6b4041/Vt2007/Filarkiv/F1_F2/Interfaces.ppt and see if their openoffice freezes too... please?
[10:06] <scorp123> natbet: aaah, that sounds "wonderful" :-)
[10:07] <truthfatal> grrr! It seems that getting beryl to work with my ATi card will be more trouble than it's worth.... I kind of wanted to show it off. :(
[10:07] <ir2> http://www.xsol.se/index.php/2007/04/29/feisty-performance-fly-like-a-butterfly/, this is web page I followed
[10:07] <scorp123> truthfatal: ATI cards suck ... sorry to say so.
[10:07] <natbet> scorp123: truly wonderful
[10:07] <ir2> I only didn't do kernel compiling ...
[10:07] <natbet> ir2: that's good, kernel compiling is a scary thing
[10:07] <truthfatal> I know. I've got an Nvidia card in my Desktop, but I just got a new laptop, and the one in my price range had an ATI card
[10:08] <sprostak> cesky ?
[10:08] <ir2> and I didn't use his script ...
[10:08] <schwagner> truthfatal: i have beryl working fine on a mobility radeon 9700 if you have anything close to that
[10:08] <banlieue> nevermind! found it!
[10:08] <yehweh> Nookie^: it works for me
[10:08] <natbet> ir2: so you kind of followed the instructions but skipped a few parts?
[10:08] <scorp123> ir2: you shouldn't mess around with things if you don't know what you do. Try something easier next time ... e.g. a nuke? Or a timemachine? Faster-than-light travel? Just don't mess with your Linux :-)
[10:08] <sprostak> pomoc a v cestine\?
[10:08] <Nookie^> yehweh: okej.. it totaly freezes everything here and i need to kill x
[10:08] <ir2> :P
[10:09] <Jordan_U> truthfatal, Not even integrated graphics available
[10:09] <Jordan_U> ?
[10:09] <truthfatal> schwagner: Ive got a Radeon Express 1100. Google gives me a lot of people with problems relating to that card.
[10:09] <natbet> :D I agree with scorp123, I think I'm going to build a car that drives faster than light
[10:09] <Tibmol> !upgrade
[10:09] <natbet> ir2: was this on a fresh install?
[10:09] <scorp123> natbet: well ... that sure would be easier than to fix "ir2" 's broken Linux sound via IRC :-)
[10:09] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[10:09] <ir2> no
[10:10] <southafrikanse> Gnea: You still here?
[10:10] <natbet> scorp123: agreed!
[10:10] <natbet> ir2: have you tried installing gstreamer packages?
[10:10] <ir2> my sound worked 2 hours ago ...
[10:10] <truthfatal> Jordan_U: The comuter salesmen at the local shops get a little snobby about "Pfft, /intergrated/ graphics!"
[10:10] <scorp123> ir2: are you sure you didn't just by accident mute the channels or something like that?
[10:10] <natbet> ir2: try installing gstreamer0.10-alsa
[10:11] <ir2> no :P
[10:11] <ir2> I already have that package ...
[10:11] <Charles_Xavier> Hello, I have downloaded something that is in WINRAR format, and has multiple files, r01, r02 etc. How would I extract a winrar archive in ubuntu? are there any programs? thanks.
[10:11] <megasquid> is there way i can see a megabyte number of how much ram a process is using?
[10:11] <jrib> !rar > Charles_Xavier (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:11] <scorp123> ir2: well I did that once :-)  Muted the channels by accident. But I did not notice ... and so I wasted hours and hours on this :-)
[10:11] <jrib> Charles_Xavier: extract the first file
[10:11] <truthfatal> Charles_Xavier: unrar should do the trick :)
[10:11] <ir2> :P
[10:11] <bipolar> scorp123: no ideas?
[10:12] <Charles_Xavier> I cannot
[10:12] <Charles_Xavier> i have no program to extract
[10:12] <natbet> ir2: what is the program you installed when it quit working?
[10:12] <jrib> Charles_Xavier: read the link from ubotu
[10:12] <Charles_Xavier> oh
[10:12] <Charles_Xavier> 1 sec
[10:12] <truthfatal> Charles_Xavier: "unrar x {filename} doesn't work?
[10:12] <ir2> it didn't work after restart :S
[10:12] <ir2> and I think I didn't install any program
[10:12] <Charles_Xavier> do i have rar installed already?
[10:12] <scorp123> bipolar: Not really ... I have just recently installed Ubuntu Server on a 8-CPU Opteron machine and so I assume that it should work under normal circumstances. Maybe your CD drive doesn't like the media you burnt your ISO on to?
[10:13] <ir2> I did update-alternatives --config editor :P
[10:13] <Charles_Xavier> do i type apt-get unrar
[10:13] <Charles_Xavier> to isntall it?
[10:13] <ir2> and nothing else :P
[10:13] <Charles_Xavier> The program 'unrar' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
[10:13] <natbet> ir2: what did you do in there?
[10:13] <bipolar> scorp123: well, thats the thing. I was able to get it to install. this issue is with booting off the hard drive
[10:13] <Charles_Xavier> sudo apt-get install unrar
[10:13] <Charles_Xavier> is that the right program
[10:13] <scorp123> Charles_Xavier: sudo apt-get install unrar
[10:13] <Charles_Xavier> ok1 sec
[10:13] <stu-mc> !rar > stu-mc
[10:13] <scorp123> bipolar: oh, the hard drive?
[10:13] <truthfatal> Charles_Xavier: yep
[10:13] <ir2> I ran usermod -G admin my_username :P
[10:14] <Charles_Xavier> ok now what
[10:14] <josue_m> hi, I have a problem installing vmware server on ubuntu server 7.04 , msg: "Unable to build the vmmon module"  any idea/usggestion?
[10:14] <Charles_Xavier> how would i unrar a file located in media/storage
[10:14] <jrib> Charles_Xavier: now right click -> extract
[10:14] <ir2> and nothing else xD
[10:14] <bipolar> scorp123: right. it's installed. this is booting from hd. In the recovery mode kernel I see it boot until it just stops at "Reading files needed for boot"
[10:14] <ir2> I played with compiz xD
[10:14] <scorp123> josue_m: you must have the kernel sources and a compiler installed ... there is a detailed how-to on the vmware.com web site.
[10:14] <bipolar> If I knew what that actualy meant maybe I could narrow it down :)
[10:14] <kbrooks> who helped me with my router?
[10:14] <Charles_Xavier> btw, its many rar files
[10:15] <natbet> ir2: I'm not sure what else to do, I think you might be boned and might have to reinstall
[10:15] <Charles_Xavier> will it extrac tthem all to get the avi movie out?
[10:15] <natbet> kbrooks: right here, is it working?
[10:15] <scorp123> bipolar: sounds like something got messed up ...
[10:15] <ir2> hmm :P
[10:15] <kbrooks> natbet, yes :D
[10:15] <Talyn600m> <- brand new ubuntu (and linux) user, can anyone help me set this up to auto-detect and connect to wifi (it's a laptop) ?
[10:15] <kbrooks> natbet, a reset did the trick
[10:15] <ir2> I only have DVD with Ubuntu breezy :(
[10:15] <natbet> kbrooks: good deal
[10:15] <scorp123> bipolar: how soon after the boot does this happen?
[10:15] <kbrooks> natbet, but somehow, i dont need to configure. odd.
[10:15] <josue_m> scorp123:  I was using this guide: http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_vmware_server
[10:16] <natbet> kbrooks: what did you do? just press the reset button?
[10:16] <bipolar> scorp123: a bit into it. it's not imediate
[10:16] <jrib> Charles_Xavier: extract the first one
[10:16] <bipolar> scorp123: but it's consistant. it boots to that point and stops
[10:16] <kbrooks> natbet, had to use a tack from a board to push it
[10:16] <pike_> Talyn600m: open a terminal and paste this 'sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r)'  see if that is installed yet

[10:18] <mobutu> so im using some dev kernel in ubuntu that enables my sound to work after resuming from hibernation.  how do i figure out if this fix is in the current kernel for ubuntu ?
[10:18] <yehweh> southafrikanse: ir2 tried to speed up his boot time and ended w/o sound. fi you want to go that route I still have the link he posted a little while back

[10:19] <mobutu> gotter: I'm not, but I prefer to use 'irssi' now
[10:19] <Jordan_U> mobutu, Or install and boot from the current kernel

[10:38] <Jordan_U> pkh, You could also see if there is a profile setting for starting actually maximised, then choose that profile from the command
[10:38] <arang> well i installed ubuntu in my USB hard drive all is perfect , it sees all my partitions in my 2 hard disks, PATA and SATA the problem is that the SDA1 partition in my SATA drive is mounted as read only
[10:38] <ompaul> OmegaCenti, 2

[10:38] <OmegaCenti> ompaul: thanks
[10:38] <pkh> Jordan_U, and in fact it seems to get the hint and the max/restore is set to max...
[10:38] <arang> (SDA1 is NTFS , also HDA1 /HDA5 are NTFS but mounted in read write)

[10:53] <linxeh> pauliukas: you dont - use either wget / curl or something like ncftp
[10:53] <Charles_Xavier> its with your keyboard plugin or keyboard drivers
[10:54] <natbet> if it's a usb keyboard it could be the usb bus
[10:55] <ompaul> southafrikanse, I just tested a laptop of similar build 1:58 from turn on to turn off, if you have installed mysql and apache and stuff like that then you might want to consider is that useful, so I would say to you to install "bum" and check very carefully what you might want to turn off
[10:55] <ir2> hey, remember me :P
[10:55] <ir2> well, after restart, my sound didn't work :(
[10:55] <ir2> what should I do ?
[10:55] <craigyjack> its not a usb keyboard. i tried with another keyboard too, same thing. do you know why it would just start happening all of a sudden. i dont think its the plugin broken, because it works fine in recovery mode, and for the 2 seconds b4 it locks up in normal mode.
[10:55] <mzanfardino> BTW: It's Ksnapshot from the KDE package I was looking for (in case anyone else saw my question and thought: wow, I'd like that too)
[10:55] <southafrikanse> ompaul: "bum"? Are you serious?
[10:55] <mwe> I have a router which came with a power supply that deliverered 12V/1A but the power supply broke. Will I risk frying it if I connect a 12V/2A power supply?
[10:56] <ompaul> southafrikanse,  boot up manager yes I am
[10:56] <OmegaCenti> southafrikanse: on that guide, Also, I got a speed boost by commenting out everything but the 'lo' lines in /etc/network/interfaces is probably really bad idea.. Don't do this
[10:57] <amorphous_> can anyone here tell me the name for the kde app that gives a taskbar full of icons that grow when the mouse goes over them? (liek the mac thing..)
[10:57] <southafrikanse> How do I install bum?
[10:57] <craigyjack> could it possibly be WPA interfering with the keyboard stuff in the kernel, b/c i just started using a wireless network that uses WPA protection
[10:57] <natbet> commenting out everything but lo in /etc/network/interfaces will help. it turns off networking so you will have to manually connect each time and clear that out each time
[10:57] <OmegaCenti> !bum | southafrikanse
[10:57] <ubotu> southafrikanse: 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
[10:57] <afief> amorphous_, that's named a dock, there are many, Kiba dock seems quite good but I think you need an accelerated desktop for it to run
[10:57] <lmc_phx1> mwe, probably not. is probably good enough?
[10:58] <ompaul> southafrikanse,  sudo apt-get install bum
[10:58] <nj786> yehweh, yes i do
[10:58] <amorphous_> afief, accelerated desktop?
[10:58] <nj786> yehweh: what should i do?
[10:58] <mwe> lmc_phx1: I'm not an electronics guy. I'm afraid it might deliver to much power or will it just deliver what's needed?
[10:58] <aimaz> craigyjack, do you have a livecd you could try?
[10:59] <afief> amorphous_, openGL accelerated desktop, the stuff you use for Compiz and Beryl also known as Desktop Effects
[10:59] <nj786> can anybody help me
[10:59] <craigyjack> yeah i got a livecd, i will try and boot from it
[10:59] <lmc_phx1> mwe, DC delivers only what its asked for so if the router want 500 ma, thats all the adapter will put out. it will *most likely* be fine
[10:59] <nj786> i cannot see my icons nor my menu bar
[10:59] <amorphous_> afief, so if i have beryl running i should be cool...?
[10:59] <criminy> I know i can use gphoto with my digital camera, but is there anyway to use the camera as a direct interface to the SD card as if it were a hard drive?
[10:59] <criminy> or thumb drive, really
[11:00] <mwe> lmc_phx1: I'll take your word on it and try
[11:00] <afief> amorphous_, sure(if it's not crawling at least)
[11:00] <jrib> criminy: mine gets mounted in /media
[11:00] <aimaz> criminy, if you plug in the camera with the cd card in does anything appear on the desktop?
[11:00] <aimaz> sd*
[11:00] <criminy> nope
[11:00] <amorphous_> afief - excellent. Thank you :)
[11:00] <aimaz> with my camera I it automatically mounts it
[11:00] <criminy> it doesn't get mounted, at all. It shows up in dmesg though
[11:00] <nj786> anybody?
[11:00] <afief> amorphous_, you're welcome:D but I think Kiba Dock is a bit hard to install
[11:00] <aimaz> does it have a device name in dmesg?
[11:01] <lmc_phx1> mwe, should be ok. voltage counts. amps dont
[11:01] <criminy> I was hoping I'd have actual hardware access to it. No device name
[11:01] <criminy> shows up in lsusb as kodac Co
[11:01] <criminy> yeah, I was hoping to be able to 'dd' it. =\
[11:01] <lmc_phx1> mwe, unless of course you are trying to electrocute yourself, then you should use very high amps! more effective
[11:01] <amorphous_> ok afief, thank for info - I'll do a bit of googlin'   thanks again ;)
[11:02] <afief> amorphous_, oh the google gods of knowledge:D almost forgot about them
[11:02] <aimaz> criminy, I don't know then, try searching for linux related things specific to that camera
[11:02] <rambo3> i just copied Ubuntu from /dev/hda2 to /dev/hda7 . and i booted of /dev/hda7 . Now everything seems to work accept sudo : sudo: must be setuid root

Now, I even tried this after having logged out of windows xp first, as I've read having a session logged in can be a problem
[11:03] <rambo3> except
[11:03] <octoberdan> What's going on?
[11:03] <Dark_Shadow> hi all
[11:03] <aimaz> rambo3, sudo works by being setuid root

[11:06] <nj786> u guys have got to be kiddin me
[11:06] <lmc_phx1> natbet, you need wysiwyg? if not, Aptana rules!

[11:07] <lmc_phx1> Dark_Shadow, and otherwise usb is working?
[11:07] <gadgit> what did you do nj to have them disappear?
[11:07] <Dark_Shadow> yep
[11:07] <natbet> lmc_phx1: usually no, but I'm doing a lot of copy/paste so wysiwyg is is nice for that
[11:07] <craigyjack> @ lmc_phx1 does aptana run better in feisty now? i remember trying it in edgy i believe and it was very buggy. so i settled for bluefish
[11:07] <natbet> nj786: umm, does an error pop up? or just no menu and panels?
[11:07] <lmc_phx1> natbet, I still code with dreamweaver. less typing
[11:07] <PriceChild> nj786, using beryl or compiz?
[11:07] <criminy> eh. gphotofs is no help here

[11:08] <natbet> lmc_phx1: I do too, when in windows. I have dreamweaver working in wine, but pasteing won't work
[11:08] <aimaz> rambo3, in a root shell you need to do chmod 4755 /usr/bin/sudo
[11:08] <lmc_phx1> craigyjack, actually, you bring up a good point, I could not get it to run "out of the box" and I have never seen it work at all on my ubuntu box. I use it on xp ( :
[11:08] <Dark_Shadow> so that my usb ports are working
[11:08] <rambo3> yeah i googled it
[11:08] <natbet> nj786: have you tried rebooting?

[11:20] <hrcerqueira> hello all, i need some help...
[11:20] <Jordan_U> nj786, If you can't figure out what's wrong, you could also add "killall gnome-terminal" to start up when you log it, but that is more hacking around the problem then actually fixing it
[11:20] <nj786> toryl__: it is not opening
[11:20] <ubotu> Other !Linux distributions besides !Ubuntu include: Debian, Mepis (using !APT); RedHat, Fedora, SUSE, Mandriva (using !RPM); Gentoo, Slackware (using other packaging systems)
[11:20] <reed026> I have a Gateway E3000 PC (1997) with 96mb of ram and NO operating system. Now, I have gone through and installed Ubuntu Server Edition, and when it restarts, the GRUB screen loads up, it says Hit ESC to choose which partition to boot. I hit ESC and choose which one I wish to boot and it automatically goes back to the bios load screen. It continues to do this when I choose anything to boot...
[11:20] <reed026> ...besides the memtest.
[11:20] <schwagner> Dark_Shadow, have you checked Google?  some phones are not supported yet, or need extra software
[11:21] <Dark_Shadow> yes
[11:21] <craigyjack> what does the memtest even do?
[11:21] <Dark_Shadow> i searched may times in google
[11:21] <nj786> toryl__: is there another way to open up affinity prefences
[11:21] <natbet> craigyjack: tests the memory to make sure it's still good
[11:21] <craigyjack> the RAM?
[11:21] <ir3> thank you
[11:21] <natbet> craigyjack: yup, the RAM
[11:22] <craigyjack> is there a particular reason it is included in grub?
[11:22] <Jordan_U> craigyjack, Any reason for it not to be, it's usefull
[11:22] <toryl__> nj786: try entering gnome-session-save at the terminal
[11:22] <mcscruff> lo
[11:22] <craigyjack> does your RAM die that much?
[11:22] <pi3> craigyjack: if you are curious, go ahead and run it, it may take very long
[11:23] <hrcerqueira> can someone give me some help regarding a screensaver problem
[11:23] <hrcerqueira> ?
[11:23] <ir3> sorry one last thing, when I type ifup <interface> will it prompt me for network name and password like it does in the GUI?
[11:23] <craigyjack> i shall try it sometime, once i get my keyboard working again so i login into ubuntu :)
[11:23] <Jordan_U> craigyjack, No, but when you are having problems it helps if you can rule RAM out ( or find out that it is in fact the culprit )
[11:23] <terayam> I'm having some video preformance issues with kubuntu, I don't think it is fully utilizing my graphics card.  In the video device selection it claims my video ram is 256kb, but I know I have more than that, but the option is locked.  Can any one help?
[11:23] <natbet> craigyjack: no, but if something does happen to the ram you have something right there to test it, windows you will have to try to find one to test
[11:23] <nj786> toryl__: These windows do not support "save current setup" and will have to be restarted manually next time you log in.
[11:23] <pi3> !ask | hrcerqueira
[11:23] <ubotu> hrcerqueira: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:23] <Jordan_U> !anyone | hrcerqueira
[11:23] <ubotu> hrcerqueira: 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?
[11:23] <hrcerqueira> ok thanks
[11:23] <DurtyTimbs> what waS TEH ANSWER
[11:24] <ir3> sorry one last thing, when I type ifup <interface> will it prompt me for network name and password like it does in the GUI?
[11:24] <craigyjack> natbet o ok cool
[11:24] <hrcerqueira> I'm having a problem with a screen saver that freezes my computer
[11:24] <nj786> can i just make another user account?
[11:24] <natbet> hrcerqueira: which screensaver is it?
[11:24] <craigyjack> !ubotu
[11:24] <hrcerqueira> don't know ist name
[11:24] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[11:24] <Jordan_U> ir3, No, you need to use iwconfig to connect to a different wireless network
[11:24] <hrcerqueira> it's one with color stripes
[11:24] <pi3> hrcerqueira: does it come with ubuntu?
[11:25] <nj786> Jordan_U: what if i make another user account?
[11:25] <natbet> hrcerqueira: what kindof graphics card do you have?
[11:25] <Jordan_U> hrcerqueira, What GFX card?
[11:25] <hrcerqueira> i want to change it, but as soon as i enter the screensaver tool, the preview starts and computer freezes
[11:25] <hrcerqueira> and yes, it comed with ubuntu
[11:25] <toryl__> nj786: worth a shot.  If other apps were open when you did gnome-session-save they might have generated your message.
[11:25] <hrcerqueira> geforce go 7300
[11:25] <hrcerqueira> 512mb
[11:25] <nj786> toryl__: how do i make another username?
[11:25] <natbet> hrcerqueira: do you have the drivers installed for it?
[11:25] <hrcerqueira> yes
[11:26] <hrcerqueira> the ones from the nvidia website
[11:26] <Jordan_U> nj786, That might work, you can get the equivalent effect by deleting the preferences for gnome-terminal
[11:26] <jrib> hrcerqueira: you can use gconf-editor to change settings for gnome-screensaver
[11:26] <craigyjack> aimaz i am booting from the liveCD right now. what is it that you wanted me to do?
[11:26] <hrcerqueira> its a command line tool?
[11:26] <nj786> Jordan_U: ok how do  i make another username
[11:26] <Jordan_U> nj786, System -> Administration -> Users and Groups
[11:27] <Rannick> I'm in dire need of help...
[11:27] <jrib> hrcerqueira: well it's a gui tool, but you can run it by typing 'gconf-editor' in a terminal
[11:27] <Jordan_U> Rannick, Just ask your question
[11:27] <hrcerqueira> i'm trying int now
[11:27] <nj786> Jordan_U: will my files still exist in the new account?
[11:27] <hrcerqueira> i'll be back and post the results, thanks
[11:27] <ir3> Jordan_U, so first i type "sudo ifup <interface>"  >>>  then "iwconfig <interface>"  >>> then it will ask me for network name and password? (I am noob at this)
[11:27] <Jordan_U> nj786, No, all your files are stored in ~ ( /home/you/ )
[11:28] <nj786> Jordan_U: ok soo all my files sotred in home will be deleted and not show on the new usernanme?
[11:28] <Rannick> I just downloaded the live cd, burned it off on to disc, and according to the instructions on the live cd, it would go into the install process, but it keeps taking me to DR-DOS, and the only thing I can run is in german, what am I doing wrong?
[11:28] <NETWizz> I compiled my own NVIDIA
[11:28] <NETWizz> Question though
[11:28] <NETWizz> How do I check my GLX version?
[11:28] <Jordan_U> ir3, No, you use ifup if the interface is already completely configured ( likely by network-admin ) in your /etc/networking/interfaces
[11:29] <preaction> Rannick: you aren't booting from the CD
[11:29] <Rannick> >.>
[11:29] <Jordan_U> nj786, They won't be deleted, they just won't show up as the new user's documents
[11:29] <Vorian> how can a person completely remove vmware-player?
[11:29] <NETWizz> Found it
[11:30] <PriceChild> Vorian, how did you install it?
[11:30] <NETWizz> I am running OpenGL version String: 2.1.1 NVIDIA 100.14.11
[11:30] <Ben__> Right, this isn't related to ubuntu at all, but if I succeed it means I can install ubuntu and all will be well. I need to know how to turn 2 partitions into 1, in windows XP
[11:30] <hrcerqueira> jrib: i can't find the correct option
[11:30] <Jordan_U> Vorian, How did you install it?
[11:30] <Vorian> PriceChild, add software :)
[11:30] <ir3> Jordan_U, so if it's not configured I edit /etc/network/interfaces?
[11:30] <PriceChild> Vorian, if from vmware.com tar.gz then a "sudo vmware-uninstall.pl" should do it...
[11:30] <preaction> what's the windows-based ubuntu installer?
[11:30] <PriceChild> Vorian, so just sudo apt-get remove it @?
[11:30] <Vorian> nope
[11:30] <PriceChild> !wubi | preaction
[11:30] <ubotu> preaction: wubi is an unofficial Ubuntu installer for Windows users - more info is at http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[11:31] <preaction> Ben__: see wubi
[11:31] <Jordan_U> ir3, That, or you can use iwconfig manually, either will work
[11:31] <jrib> hrcerqueira: try setting mode to "black-only"
[11:31] <PurpZeY> PriceChild: Can wubi create partitions and all that?
[11:31] <Vorian> PriceChild, I thought I was installing vmware server, now server wont install because of the remnants of player :(
[11:31] <Ben__> preaction: wubi?
[11:31] <ir3> Jordan_U ok thanks alot, I appreciate your help
[11:31] <Rannick> Ok, so, I've set the bios to boot from the drive the disc is in, and it takes me to DR-DOS.  :S
[11:31] <Jordan_U> ir3, np
[11:31] <preaction> PurpZeY: no, it installs on a file on your windows partition
[11:31] <craigyjack> can you disable the harddrive being force checked?
[11:31] <PurpZeY> preaction: That's what I thought...just checking.
[11:31] <Knux> I'm got a little problem, I had a 3Com PCMCIA card in my laptop when I booted with the CD, then I started the install on it. After the install was done, I noticed the card wasn't working, I installed my Xircom Creditcard 10/100 + 56K in it but was only detected as a normal Base10T card and not the modem... I tried booting with the CD again and it was all detected... is there any way to get the good drivers?
[11:31] <hrcerqueira> jrib: i go to desktop / gnome ?
[11:31] <ir2> Hello, I have one strange problem
[11:31] <ir2> right after booting GNOME can't be fully loaded from GDM so I have to restart GDM... after that GNOME loads successfully??
[11:31] <jrib> craigyjack: forever?
[11:32] <ir2> I'm running XGL ...
[11:32] <jrib> hrcerqueira: apps/gnome-screensaver
[11:32] <mwe> lmc_phx1: It didn't go up in smoke.
[11:32] <natbet> gps
[11:32] <Jordan_U> ir2, ATI card?
[11:32] <ir2> yep
[11:32] <PurpZeY> jrib: I'm not sure what he's asking, but is there a way to skip the test, if it is not convenient at the time?
[11:33] <noclue> does anyone here run pypanel?
[11:33] <Cristian> wenas
[11:33] <gnychis> i'm having trouble booting, is there any way to get the kernel to give me output during the boot process?
[11:33] <PurpZeY> !anyone | noclue
[11:33] <ubotu> noclue: 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?
[11:33] <Ben__> preaction: you're talking about the installer for ubuntu? Because if so, and that installer thingy allows me to totally reassign my partitioning then I'm set.
[11:33] <Cristian> algun shileno
[11:33] <craigyjack> jrib well its kinda annoying that it checks each of my partitions once theyve been mounted 32 times. they have always worked fine, whats the point in it keep checking them, never had a problem mounting them
[11:33] <Jordan_U> gnychis, Yes, from grub remove the "splash" and "quiet" kernel parameters
[11:33] <preaction> Ben__: it installs ubuntu to a file on the windows partition, and configures the windows bootloader to allow you to boot ubuntu as well, no partitioning required
[11:33] <craigyjack> whats the command to reconfigure xserver again?
[11:33] <Music_Shuffle> !reconfigure
[11:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about reconfigure - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:33] <jrib> !xconfig > craigyjack (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:33] <Music_Shuffle> Or that.
[11:34] <PurpZeY> !dpkg
[11:34] <ubotu> dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit.
[11:34] <jrib> PurpZeY: I'd like to know too :)
[11:34] <crabgrass> i'm trying to install xubuntu-system-tools, and synaptic is telling me it has to remove gnome-system-tools and ubuntu-desktop... what, exactly, is this going to break?
[11:34] <lmc_phx1> mwe, thats good news. it will probably run fine forever then. have fun with your router. Check your config from the outside at www.grc.com follow the link to shields up!
[11:34] <ir2> Jordan_U, know how to solve my problem ?
[11:34] <hrcerqueira> jrib: thanks, one other question, my screen blinks a lot, i don't know if it's a screen or g card issue, because is the only os i have installed, do you know if it's a common issue?
[11:34] <PurpZeY> jrib: In other words, there is no way to do that, that you know of...
[11:34] <Music_Shuffle> crabgrass, hopefully nothing if you replace those two >_>
[11:34] <craigyjack> !xconfig > craigyjack
[11:34] <jjin> hey
[11:34] <jjin> is there sth like winscp for gnome?
[11:34] <crabgrass> Music_Shuffle: lol, alright... i'll take your word for it.
[11:35] <craigyjack> man i love that ubotu
[11:35] <noclue> does anyone know why a program like pypanel would be taking up 100% of my CPU usage?
[11:35] <marfeath> Can the install cd resize ntfs?
[11:35] <mwe> lmc_phx1: yeah. thanks
[11:35] <Jordan_U> marfeath, Yes
[11:35] <marfeath> ok thanks
[11:35] <jrib> craigyjack: it's a good idea to let them get checked.  You can tell it not to check if you 'touch /fastboot' before you reboot.  You could also change settings in fstab or use tune2fs if you really want to.  But I recommend leaving them be
[11:36] <lmc_phx1> someone wanted to reconfigure x? sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:36] <Ben__> preaction: I know what you mean, I've used it before. But here's the deal - I've got 20gb of physical HDD, 16gb of which is windows partition and 4gb of which I want to encorporate into said windows partition. Will Wubi (as provided with the Feisty disk) allow me to do this?
[11:36] <Sayers> What is the package for Rytmbox MP3?
[11:36] <ir2> hello, anyone know how to solve my problem ?
[11:37] <crabgrass> Music_Shuffle: ah crap. trying to run Shared Folders gives me "you are not allowed to access the system configuration"
[11:37] <crabgrass> any ideas on how to get in there?
[11:37] <ir2> Ima li jos eyecandy za lin ?
[11:37] <crabgrass> anyone?
[11:37] <ir2> xD
[11:37] <PurpZeY> jrib: How do you do 'touch /fastboot' ? I mean, when I press the button to turn my lappy on, I have no point where I can enter any CLI things.
[11:37] <ir2> wrong window
[11:37] <Music_Shuffle> crabgrass, sorry, I'm not very good at the in-depth questions +X
[11:37] <ir2> sry
[11:37] <crabgrass> Music_Shuffle: np
[11:37] <jrib> PurpZeY: before you shutdown
[11:37] <Jordan_U> Ben__, Wubi does not come with the Feisty install CD, it is a separate, unofficial ( beta ) installer
[11:38] <Ben__> I see
[11:38] <PurpZeY> jrib: I see, but, how do I verify the number of boots I've had previous to the boot? and also, if I do that, will it then do the check on my next boot?
[11:39] <Knux> When a card had all it's drivers and was working on the boot CD but after the install, it only partially detects it and only adds generic drivers.. is there any way to get it installed correctly?
[11:39] <Sayers> !mp3

[11:39] <crabgrass> anyone know how to get past "you are not allowed to access the system configuration"?
[11:39] <hrcerqueira> my screen blinks a lot, i don't know if it's a screen or g card issue, because is the only os i have installed, anyone knows if it's a common issue?
[11:39] <PurpZeY> Knux: What card...
[11:39] <jrib> PurpZeY: comment in http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/10/12/tuning-the-filesystem-check-at-bootup/ says you can hit ctrl-c followed by ctrl-d to stop it.  You can probably get how many times a partition has been mounted without being checked using tune2fs.  I think it will get checked the next time after you use /fastboot, but am not sure
[11:39] <Jordan_U> Knux, Did you try System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager ?
[11:39] <Knux> xircom CreditCard 10/100 + 56K modem
[11:39] <stu-mc> Q: how do i list what groups a user is in ?
[11:40] <Knux> only detects a Base10T and not the modem
[11:40] <Jordan_U> crabgrass, sudo ?
[11:40] <PurpZeY> jrib: Got it, thanks.
[11:40] <crabgrass> Jordan_U: i'm accessing this from the system menu, i don't know how to sudo it
[11:40] <natbet> exit
[11:40] <nj786> Jordan_U: is there a way to transfer them?
[11:40] <nj786> from 1 user to another?
[11:40] <bitumen> hi all
[11:41] <Knux> Jordan_U: I don't have this option
[11:41] <toryl__> hrcerqueira: blinks like goes off and on every once in a while, or flickers like in a pattern.
[11:41] <Ben__> Right then, well basically I want a Windows XP program that will allow me to edit my partitions at will. Edit 2 partitions into 1, vice versa, all that stuff. Freeware. Anybody?
[11:41] <Jordan_U> nj786, Yes, but again, you can get the same effect as a new user by deleting ~/./gnome
[11:41] <craigyjack> no! wth, reconfiguring the xserver still gave the keyboard lock up after about 3 seconds into the gnome login screen. why did the kernel decide to start hating me today
[11:42] <craigyjack> idk how i am going to solve this stupid problem
[11:42] <joselyn> tontin2
[11:42] <TexasTaz> Hey Guys I am looking to buy a Cheaper Laser Printer for my Home Network I need one that works well with Ubuntu any Ideas?
[11:42] <nj786> Jordan_U: might as well swtich to kubuntu
[11:42] <Jordan_U> Knux, Are you using Feisty?
[11:42] <TexasTaz> I have 5 Ubuntu PCs one Laptop and 3 Servers
[11:42] <Jordan_U> nj786, Why?
[11:42] <reed026> I have a Gateway E3000 PC (1997) with 96mb of ram and NO operating system. Now, I have gone through and installed Ubuntu Server Edition, and when it restarts, the GRUB screen loads up, it says Hit ESC to choose which partition to boot. I hit ESC and choose which one I wish to boot and it automatically goes back to the bios load screen. It continues to do this when I choose anything to boot...

[11:42] <Ben__> PrupZeY: This is prudent because it's the one thing stopping me from installing ubuntu. Literally. Somebody with this amount of expertise will know.
[11:42] <m1r> how can i start certain program to start loading before taskbar starts loading ?
[11:42] <nj786> Jordan_U: becuase i cannot transfer my files int mynew user
[11:43] <gnomefreak> TexasTaz: HP most of them are nice easy to set up
[11:43] <Jordan_U> nj786, Yes, you can
[11:43] <stu-mc> Q: how do i list what groups a user is in please?
[11:43] <Knux> Jordan_U :I'm kinda a "noob" to Linux, what's feisty?
[11:43] <Ben__> PurpZeY: This is prudent because it's the one thing stopping me from installing ubuntu. Literally. Somebody with this amount of expertise will know.
[11:43] <nj786> Jordan_U: i know but what if i get the same effect
[11:43] <PurpZeY> TexasTaz: I've had good experience with my HP 2300.
[11:43] <Jordan_U> Knux, version 7.04 of Ubuntu ( the newest )
[11:43] <gnomefreak> stu-mc: groups?
[11:43] <PurpZeY> Ben__: Are you really going to be comfortable using a freeware partition editor?
[11:43] <Knux> ah, nah, I'm over 6.06 LTS
[11:44] <gnomefreak> stu-mc: log in as user open terminal type groups
[11:44] <PurpZeY> Ben__: That's not part of the ubuntu package.
[11:44] <jhakk> Ben__: you can use the ubuntu live cd's partition editor
[11:44] <Knux> it's an old laptop, I don't want to put something too much recent on it not to make it slow
[11:44] <jhakk> Knux: new doesn't mean slow in linux land.. go for it
[11:44] <bitumen> Ben__: live cd is all i use
[11:44] <Ben__> jhakk: The live CD has a partition editor I can use to turn 16gb and 4gb partitions into one 20gb partition?
[11:44] <Jordan_U> nj786, No, I meant that if creating a new user fixes your gnome-panel problem then you can also fix the problem in your current user by deleting the preferences from gnome-panel ( they will be re-generated, just like they were when you created a new user )
[11:45] <jhakk> Ben__: yes, you can resize partitions (if they are the right FS type)
[11:45] <toryl__> Ben__: I think there is a gparted liveCD too, that will do what you want to.  Gparted is the partitioner used by the ubuntu install cd I think.
[11:45] <stefg> Knux: Feisty is actually faster than Dapper. consider xubuntu 7.04
[11:45] <Jordan_U> Knux, Actually, Gnome has gotten faster to a certain extent :)
[11:45] <nj786> Jordan_U: ok how do i do that lol
[11:45] <TexasTaz> Thanks magnet
[11:45] <TexasTaz> !hardware
[11:45] <TexasTaz> Thank you ubotu
[11:45] <ubotu> For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[11:45] <stu-mc> gnomefreak: thanks, that worked. can u give me an example of how to add a user to a group, i thought i had done it but the group is not listed in the list when i type groups. i used sudo usermod -G <group name> <user>
[11:46] <Jordan_U> nj786, You just need to delete the right folder, let me find it...
[11:46] <jhakk> guys, I'm having a problem with nvidia binary driver installation.. im on feisty, using the restricted modules manager, enabling nvidia, and X won't restart
[11:46] <nj786> Jordan_U: ok take ur time
[11:46] <gnomefreak> stu-mc: system>admin>users and groups
[11:46] <stefg> jhakk: and the error message is ....???
[11:46] <jhakk> the card is a GeForce 8800GTX which is listed as supported, but im gettin RmInitAdapter Failed! in my dmesg log.. searching nvidia's forums, I found this was related to booting with kexec, which as far as I know, I am not doing
[11:47] <stu-mc> gnomefreak: i dont have access to gui atm, any chance you got the CLI command ?
[11:47] <Knux> Jordan_U: any way to directly update version from an update ?
[11:47] <Jordan_U> nj786, delete ~/.gconf/apps/gnome-settings/gnome-panel and ~/.gconf/apps/gnome-settings/gnome-panel/%gconf.xml
[11:47] <nj786> jordan_u from...
[11:47] <gnomefreak> stu-mc: its adduser or addusr or something like that, i havent done it in years
[11:47] <Jordan_U> Knux, Yes, but you would have to download more to update than to just re-install
[11:48] <Knux> Jordan_U: I don't feel like downloading, making a new CD (limited in CDs I have) and reinstall, it took a lot of time (it's a 466)
[11:48] <jhakk> oh, and the X log error is that it can't open /dev/nvidia0 which actually exists.. it looks like the driver won't init, so X figures it can't open the device
[11:48] <Ben__> This is great. I literally only want to turn my partitioned physical 20gb HDD into a single 20gb filesystem. If the Ubuntu CD allows me to do that, then fine. I only want to put my whole HDD into one partition so I can then install ubuntu more easily. If the partitioning system that comes with the LiveCD allows me to do this, that's all good
[11:48] <jhakk> so, I have no idea what's going on
[11:48] <craigyjack> well looks like i wont be using my beloved ubuntu for a while because i have no idea how to solve this retarded problem
[11:48] <stu-mc> gnomefreak: kk thanx, ill have a play if not try a google search again, google seem to like user groups (alot of results)
[11:48] <Music_Shuffle> Ben__, gparted should allow you to do that.
[11:48] <imbecile> the more i use linux the more i love it.. sometimes i find it frustrating being new but when i get stuff working it makes it really worth it imho
[11:48] <jhakk> Ben__: yup, you're good to go.. just click "use entire disk" and you're good to go
[11:48] <Knux> And my HD is only a little 4.7GB
[11:48] <PurpZeY> Ben__: I believe the LiveCD should be able to do that, depending on what partitions you have...But there is also nothing wrong with having 4 partitions, instead of 3.
[11:48] <Jordan_U> nj786, The file browser or from the terminal with rm, like this: rm ~/.gconf/apps/gnome-settings/gnome-panel/%gconf.xml
[11:48] <reed026> I have a Gateway E3000 PC (1997) with 96mb of ram and NO operating system. Now, I have gone through and installed Ubuntu Server Edition, and when it restarts, the GRUB screen loads up, it says Hit ESC to choose which partition to boot. I hit ESC and choose which one I wish to boot and it automatically goes back to the bios load screen. It continues to do this when I choose anything to boot...
[11:49] <reed026> ...besides the memtest.
[11:49] <jhakk> Knux: that's fine, you'll have lenty of space
[11:49] <imbecile> oops, wrong window
[11:49] <nj786> Jordan_U: ok by doing this what will happen explain
[11:49] <mike-kubuntu> hey, after the latest nvidia update for some reason my nvidia kernel module is version 1.0.76** unless i log into a virtual console and do a sudo rmmod nvidia and then sudo modprobe nvidia, then x starts up fine, any idea what package to reconfigure or how to fix this?
[11:49] <jhakk> reed026: sounds like you have the wrong kernel or your partition loader is broken.. reboot with the live CD and see if you can recover it
[11:49] <gnomefreak> stu-mc: its adduser see adduser for more
[11:50] <reed026> jhakk I can't boot with the live cd
[11:50] <stefg> jhakk: as i read you need at least a 97.02 driver... bad luck. so you're better of to get the kernel sources and the most recent installer from nvidia.com
[11:50] <Jordan_U> nj786, When you log in again, gnome will see that there are no preferences available for gnome-panel and will then re-create them, just like it creates preferences when you first log in with a new user
[11:50] <Knux> Jordan_U : I have 140 updates
[11:50] <marfeath> how do you install using local as your timezone
[11:50] <Knux> :\
[11:50] <Ben__> OK all, thanks for this. I know asking an XP question on an ubuntu channel wasn't really appropriate, but the ultimate aim is to install ubuntu so I considered it justified.
[11:50] <gnomefreak> marfeath: during install you set it up
[11:50] <nj786> Jordan_U: but my files will still be there right on this user
[11:50] <Knux> 227MB downloading at 800k/sec ++
[11:51] <Jordan_U> Knux, You will probably have to download ~ 3 times as much to update as you would to just download the Feisty install CD :(
[11:51] <blackelf> ubuntu doesnt work
[11:51] <jhakk> stefg: that was what I was going to try next.. do you know what packages are the deps for the installer? e.g. I need my kernel headers.. anything else?
[11:51] <Jordan_U> nj786, Yes
[11:51] <marfeath> gnomefreak: how?  I'm at the part where you select the timezone, but i dont see local
[11:51] <blackelf> sound doesnt work... why? it sucks
[11:51] <mike-kubuntu> I've read linux-restricted-modules comes with every version of nvidia-kernel- modules, wheres the config file that tells it which module to load?
[11:51] <Jordan_U> !doesn't work | blackelf
[11:51] <ubotu> blackelf: 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.
[11:51] <gnomefreak> marfeath: local as in your timezone?
[11:51] <PurpZeY> !alsa | blackelf
[11:51] <ubotu> blackelf: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[11:51] <nj786> Jordan_U: basically its going to reset the menu pannel?
[11:51] <Knux> Jordan_U: yea but I'm limited in CDs I have... + I'm low in money right now so I can't buy any
[11:51] <marfeath> gnomefreak:  yes
[11:51] <stefg> jhakk:sudo apt-get  build-essential should draw what's needed
[11:52] <Jordan_U> nj786, Yes
[11:52] <gnomefreak> marfeath: you dont see your country?
[11:52] <kupesoft> I'm having trouble getting alsa to actually play sound on my jetway j2f7 mini-itx motherboard. The adapter is a via 8237. Can anyone help?
[11:52] <crabgrass> okay, for samba servers, how do i connect from the windows machine? by ip?
[11:52] <blackelf> Jordan_U: PurpZeY: yeah Im advanced user. I did all the basic things, still sound RECORDING doesnt work
[11:52] <nj786> Jordan_U: ok lets start
[11:52] <nj786> Jordan_U: 1st stepp?
[11:52] <PurpZeY> Knux: I don't mean to sound crass, but a CD is about 50 c or less.
[11:52] <Jordan_U> Knux, Then just update, I am just warning you that it will take a long time
[11:52] <marfeath> gnomefreak: I dont want it to change my system clock, i want it to rely on the internal clock
[11:53] <Knux> even at 800k/sec +
[11:53] <craigyjack> is there a way to reinstall gdm from recovery mode?
[11:53] <Knux> ?

[11:54] <tarheelcoxn> hi. I'm trying to set up a preseed netinst for a fleet of laptops--all lenovo T60p--but the video card is not autodetected properly, so I was hoping to just skip autodetection and drop an xorg.conf in the preseed file. Can anybody point me to how to do that?
[11:55] <tarheelcoxn> I've been looking at https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/installation-guide/i386/preseed-contents.html#preseed-X
[11:55] <cute_bettong> anyone got any ideas?
[11:55] <nj786> Jordan_U: ok nothing happend
[11:55] <nj786> i still see my icons

[11:56] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[11:56] <Jordan_U> enviouz, mupen
[11:56] <cute_bettong> so anyone got any ideas as to why fiesty will not work on my dell latitude c600?
[11:57] <alecwhh> I'm having a serious problem with my PC. Last night, my computer installed some driver updates (what it looked like) and I installed them. I restarted my PC this morning, and after I logged in, the screen stays at an orange (like, the wallpaper) screen. I've waited about 50 minutse now, and it's not doing anything.
[11:57] <jhakk> cute_bettong: sounds like a bad kernel or bad install
[11:57] <alecwhh> What should I do?
[11:57] <nj786> Jordan_U: no i still see my pannels wernt they supose to default?
[11:57] <enviouz> Jordan_U:  have you used it yourself? i ask because i tried it but for some reason the left and right buttons wont work on my pad
[11:57] <PurpZeY> alecwhh: You probably got a new kernel upgrade that messed with your drivers.
[11:57] <mat1> Any on eknow how to install a .patch file?
[11:57] <cute_bettong> jhakk: ok so your telling me the 3 images that i downloaded seprately and burned at 3 diffrent speeds with 3 diffrent types of cdr are all bad?

[11:58] <tarheelcoxn> Jordan_U: thanks... I've been looking at the preseeding documentation already... it's a wee bit sparse
[11:58] <alecwhh> PurpZeY, how do I fix it?
[11:58] <tarheelcoxn> !cloning
[11:58] <Jordan_U> enviouz, I have only used it with a keyvoars
[11:58] <ubotu> To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type  dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages , move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type  sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade  - See also !automate
[11:58] <Jordan_U> enviouz, *keyboard
[11:58] <enviouz> ahh ok ty
[11:58] <jhakk> mat1: use "patch"
[11:58] <cute_bettong> i find that really hard to be
[11:58] <r00723r0> hi
[11:58] <enviouz> maybe ill try google again and see if i can find a different input plugin
[11:58] <PurpZeY> alecwhh: Try rebooting, when it says you can load the grub menu to choose, hit esc, and then select the older kernel...If you don't know which one...run unname first to check .
[11:58] <r00723r0> i'd like to run a command every time my dhcp daemon runs
[11:58] <cute_bettong> it's easy to blame the media...but i doubt that is it
[11:58] <r00723r0> is this possible?
[11:58] <jhakk> cute_bettong: ok, well, it's possible the stock kernel's with those updated images don't work right with your laptop
[11:59] <alecwhh> ok, PurpZeY
[11:59] <jhakk> cute_bettong: start by seeing if you can do a generic i386 install
[11:59] <alecwhh> Can I PM you after?
[11:59] <PurpZeY> alecwhh: I'll be here.
[11:59] <alecwhh> ok
[11:59] <FFForever> how do i take a snapshot?
[11:59] <mat1> jhakk: how would I type it out to install say noname.patch?
[11:59] <Jordan_U> alecwhh, Press ctrl+alt+backspace to restart X
[11:59] <r00723r0> i'd like to run a command every time my dhcp daemon runs
[11:59] <r00723r0> is this possible?
[11:59] <jhakk> mat1: .patch files contain patch data for a specific file
[11:59] <PurpZeY> Jordan_U: He needs a full reboot.
[11:59] <jhakk> mat: so you need to know what you are patching first
[12:00] <Jordan_U> PurpZeY, But he is probably going to reboot by pulling the plug :)
[12:00] <jhakk> mat: but you'd do something like patch -p1 target_file.foo < myupdate.patch
[12:00] <FFForever> can i take a snapshot?
[12:00] <cute_bettong> jhakk: thats a better solution...i cannot think of any other thing.. i tryed memorex cdr at 1x and officemax at 25x then a no name brand at 52x and i get the same issues time and time again..... i even deleted the iso and rebooted the computer between images to make sure there was no chance of a tainted image....
