[12:02] <imbecile> hey guys, how do i make a program that doesnt need to run by root  require root  privs?
[12:03] <fatespeaks> vox754, I figured that may the sound app were connecting directly to my card and not going through ALSA.  Does that make sense?  I'll look into proprietary drivers though.
[12:03] <d4rkmonkey> imbecile, why do you want to do that?
[12:03] <lazaro> d4rkmonkey:  thanks for the help anyway! :) I'll give a try on it, and try also the 32bits version of feisty
[12:03] <pike_> imbecile: just to be safe what app is it?
[12:03] <imbecile> d4rkmonkey,  my roommate just discovered bittorrenting ;P
[12:04] <d4rkmonkey> no problem lazaro
[12:04] <treyesh> Im using a toshiba Satellite and I cant hear sound
[12:04] <imbecile> pike_,  its azureus.. my roommate just discovered btttorrenting
[12:04] <fedor-emelianenk> why all developers use linux? is there a reason for that?
[12:04] <pike_> !sound | treyesh
[12:04] <ubotu> treyesh: 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
[12:05] <pike_> treyesh: ive had good luck with satellites under linux btw
[12:05] <treyesh> it is alsa
[12:05] <vox754> fatespeaks, good luck finding proprietary drivers.
[12:05] <Niklas_E> is there any package that contains this function? php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed:
[12:05] <joshritger> does anyone know how to access a wifi network that uses a wpa not a wep?
[12:05] <pike_> imbecile: im not sure id want to run a p2p app with root priv. id probably just delete it as he can just install it in his home dir
[12:06] <MajorPayne> Is there an applet out there that can manage sshfs mounts?
[12:06] <fedor-emelianenk> is true that all software developers are using linux?
[12:06] <imbecile> pike_,  ok thanks... that  sounds like a good idea actually
[12:06] <MrXorg> Whats the best way to install an .rpm?
[12:06] <treyesh> what hould i do
[12:07] <treyesh> what should i do
[12:07] <MajorPayne> fedor-emelianenk: Umm.  No, not all software developers use Linux.
[12:07] <pike_> MrXorg: very carefully. :) use alien to conver to deb then sudo dpkg -i file.deb
[12:07] <pike_> MrXorg: most apps are in repos though what is it?
[12:07] <vox754> imbecile, yes, you may create separate accounts and disallowing him the privileges to run applications, you could "sudo chmod go-rwx <azureus-executable>" so nobody but the owner has privileges and also "sudo chown root <azureus-executable>" something along that
[12:08] <MrXorg> pike: a version of snort.rpm
[12:08] <vox754> MrXorg, if there is a rpm, there most probably is a deb also, or you can fetch the source directly yourself.
[12:08] <imbecile> vox754, pike_ , thanks
[12:08] <Mauro22> l
[12:08] <treyesh> how do i install drivers to here sound
[12:08] <pike_> MrXorg: snort is in universe you just looking for another version?
[12:08] <fatespeaks> vox754, Thanks, I'll figure something out.  I just wanted to voice the issue here an case any already knew an answer.  Figuring stuff out is half the fun of Linux.  ;)
[12:09] <vox754> fatespeaks, aye
[12:09] <fedor-emelianenk> majorpayne: last two months all linux distributions have been loosing digits on the Hits Per Day of distrowatch.com Do you know why this is happening? I noticed this and I became very worried!!!
[12:09] <erUSUL> |sound | treyesh
[12:09] <MrXorg> pike: I already have a version of it I'm just trying to go by the directions so I can compile it right
[12:09] <treyesh> help

[12:09] <Mauro22> Hi, Does Anybody know a IRC hannel Like This But In Spanish???
[12:09] <MajorPayne> fedor-emelianenk: No, I do not.
[12:09] <pike_> treyesh: do a google search like 'site:ubuntuforums.org sound laptopmodel' <--is best bet
[12:09] <MajorPayne> fedor-emelianenk: But I also don't really care.
[12:09] <pike_> MrXorg: oh
[12:09] <Agrajag> !es|Mauro
[12:09] <ubotu> Mauro: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[12:10] <MrXorg> pike: I'm trying to compile with ACID and mysql
[12:10] <imbecile> fatespeaks,  yeah you are right... i look at using linux like putting together a model
[12:10] <MrXorg> Any idea?
[12:11] <pike_> MrXorg: sorry no.
[12:11] <Arko> how can i check which version of Java (5 or 6) is installed?
[12:11] <supremesonic> arko, java -version
[12:12] <Syco54645> i am about to update to feisty
[12:12] <Arko> supremesonic: thanx. It shows me 1.6.0. Is it 6?
[12:13] <supremesonic> arko,  java 6 = 1.6.0
[12:13] <Syco54645> but the update manager lists a few recommended updates that are greyed out (totem, libggi2, mplayer, totem-mozilla).  how do i get these to update?
[12:13] <Arko> supremesonic: Thank you.
[12:14] <d4rkmonkey> just thought you guys might enjoy this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FPE9-YozpyQ&eurl=http://divineomega.co.uk/open-source/do-not-install-linux-on-the-toilet
[12:14] <d4rkmonkey> o_O should cut out that eurl thing..

[12:14] <fatespeaks> I am also trying to fix a Display  issue.  I have a Matrox TripleHead2Go box that makes 3 monitors look like 1 3840x1024 monitor to the PC.  I have already configured a modeline that works.  I would like Xinerama-like functionality that allows me to maximize to on display instead of all 3.  Any ideas?
[12:15] <vox754> !offtopic | d4rkmonkey
[12:15] <ubotu> d4rkmonkey: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:15] <d4rkmonkey> vox its about linux ;)
[12:15] <d4rkmonkey> close enough :P
[12:15] <vox754> d4rkmonkey, you can have all the fun you want in offtopic
[12:15] <vox754> !away > shwouchk
[12:16] <d4rkmonkey> does it really matter if I say one thing off topic?
[12:16] <osman> hi, i have question re 32 bit lib for AMD64 with feisty
[12:16] <d4rkmonkey> I'm not having a full conversation and cluttering up the channel by saying one thing
[12:16] <vox754> d4rkmonkey, it is a matter of principles.
[12:16] <amorphous_> jrib - i'm having issues with the vnc thing - do you know if there's any reason why I'm getting 'channel 3 open failed' 'administratively prohibited' errors... i'm trying to connect to marshcast@ipaddress - should I be trying to connect to root (i have ssh to root turned off for securiy)
[12:16] <osman> where can i get 32 bit lib libg2c ?
[12:16] <amorphous_> ?
[12:16] <logreeval> Hi, should I set Firestarter firewall to go on startup, i installed it, but it nevers runs...
[12:17] <ans_> oh man I have major issues, I was installing ubuntu using instlux and it hung while installing. I soft rebooted and now I get "GRUB loading, please wait... Error 15" It's a dual-boot machine, but I can't get beyond this point and get into Windows to restart instlux. My laptop does not have a CD-ROM drive or floppy drive and I was doing a net install. Any way to get around this to get back to Windows?
[12:17] <d4rkmonkey> vox754, I don't think theres anything wrong with me pasting one link to a funny video about linux here.
[12:17] <vox754> d4rkmonkey, I assume you are not an adult
[12:18] <d4rkmonkey> vox754, no, I am not. But making comments like that doesn't make you sound more mature than me.
[12:18] <Billy> how do I get my self in to the ubotu
[12:18] <amorphous_> or anyone else that could possibly tell me about vnc ^^^
[12:18] <vox754> osman, "aptitude search libg2c"
[12:18] <vox754> !vnc
[12:18] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[12:18] <osman> thx
[12:19] <Billy> bot
[12:19] <vox754> Billy, "/query ubotu"
[12:19] <maynards-girl> this is more of a general linux question, but in windows i type "netstat -n", what do i type in linux to see the same thing?
[12:19] <intangir> maynards-girl: ya
[12:20] <Billy> Vox754: thank you
[12:20] <maynards-girl> intangir, ya? i dont have that command
[12:20] <osman> vox754. I am only getting the 64 bit libs, is there some option to search for 32 bits?
[12:20] <marfeath> does an ntfs drive have to be defragged before it can be resized?
[12:21] <ans_> how can I get around a GRUB error 15 on startup?
[12:21] <vox754> osman, oh, mmm... probably because you have the 64 bit repositories enabled. Try browsing the 32 bit repositories manually
[12:21] <vox754> ans_, reinstalling GRUB
[12:22] <g[r] eek> hi, in ubuntu networking (/etc/networking/interfaces), setting static eth0, what does the "broadcast" attribute refer to?
[12:22] <vox754> marfeath, it is recommended. I defraged my drive like 10 times because I wanted to be sure.
[12:22] <ans_> vox754, I don't have any external devices, I was doing a net install.
[12:23] <vox754> g[r] eek, maybe you read "man interfaces"
[12:23] <Billy> in windows I look up my mac address with "ipconfig /all"   how do I do this in Ubuntu?
[12:23] <georgy28> Billy, : ifconfig
[12:23] <vox754> ans_, then maybe you need the Ubuntu CD to reinstall grub.
[12:23] <preaction> Billy: ifconfig and/or iwconfig
[12:23] <maynards-girl> billy, i think it's ifconfig
[12:23] <erUSUL> Billy: ifconfig -a
[12:23] <ans_> vox754, I don't have a CD-ROM drive, nor floppy.
[12:23] <Billy> interface  thank you  I forgot...
[12:24] <amorphous_> can anyone tell me about vnc connections (specifically 'channel 3 administratively prohibited') error messages? I can ssh into the machine fine, but not vnc...?
[12:24] <ans_> vox754, it's a fujitu lifebook b2630
[12:24] <maynards-girl> this is more of a general linux question, but in windows i would type "netstat -n", what do i type in linux to see the same thing/result?
[12:24] <vox754> ans_, Is that one from 1996?
[12:24] <erUSUL> maynards-girl: netstat -n
[12:24] <shwouchk> for some reason knetworkmanager fails to connect me to wireless networks - my nix alreasy autoassociates and all that is left for the connection to work is just running dhclient (which I end up running manually)... what could cause this?
[12:24] <erUSUL> maynards-girl: most windows tcp/ip utils come from unix ;)
[12:25] <MajorPayne> What package do I install for gnome development?
[12:25] <ans_> vox754, not sure when it came out, it's second-hand
[12:25] <maynards-girl> erusul, thanks! i feel stupid now
[12:25] <maynards-girl> i learn a little each day :)
[12:25] <shwouchk> for some reason knetworkmanager fails to connect me to wireless networks - my nix alreasy autoassociates and all that is left for the connection to work is just running dhclient (which I end up running manually)... In addition, even after I manually connect to a network, networkmanager shows me as offline... what could cause this?
[12:26] <vox754> ans_, you could try some very weird stuff using a network install, running the CD from another PC, but I have really no experience.
[12:26] <erUSUL> maynards-girl: no problem. i usually use this 'netstat -putan' ;)
[12:26] <vox754> shwouchk, a bad driver. Broadcom?
[12:26] <ScottLij> can you record the audio output (audio that goes to the speakers) into a mp3 file in Ubuntu?
[12:26] <MajorPayne> What package do I install for gnome development?
[12:26] <d4rkmonkey> for everyone except vox754, as he doesn't seem interest in my "off topic" links, http://www.zachisbored.com/penguinLifeSafetyCompany.jpg Got it off of digg
[12:27] <maynards-girl> erusul, thank you! that is exactly what i was looking for :) :)
[12:27] <shwouchk> vox754: indeed, but Im using the latest windows driver via ndiswrapper
[12:27] <erUSUL> maynards-girl: your wellcome
[12:28] <vox754> shwouchk, mmm... yeah. Well, good luck.
[12:28] <shwouchk> vox754: :(

[12:28] <g[r] eek> instead of waiting for dhcpdiscover
[12:29] <TurtleBoots> how would it break the machine very badly vox754?

[12:33] <d4rkmonkey> yes SimplySeth

[12:33] <SimplySeth> d4rkmonkey:  thank you
[12:33] <SimplySeth> *doh*
[12:33] <jrib> SimplySeth: no, only ubuntu debs
[12:33] <d4rkmonkey> preaction?
[12:33] <preaction> SimplySeth: packages built for debian cannot be installed into ubuntu, in most cases
[12:33] <preaction> SimplySeth: .deb packages built for ubuntu can be installed in ubuntu
[12:33] <d4rkmonkey> SimplySeth, from my understanding, .debs can be installed in Ubuntu, but it is better to use the repositories
[12:34] <BeastlykingsIsMe> How do I open .rar files in Ubuntu?
[12:34] <preaction> d4rkmonkey, SimplySeth: there are two different concepts here. .deb packages and packages for Debian.

[12:44] <PurpZeY> !ati | arben
[12:44] <ubotu> arben: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:44] <g[r] eek> the router supports dhcp
[12:44] <__david> I have an audigy 2zs and an integrated sound mobo (asus p5b) and neither sound output works--also doesn't even detect them
[12:44] <g[r] eek> thus i tried both dhcp and static on my linux box
[12:44] <chadeldridge> Does anyone know when Gnome 2.19 is coming out ?
[12:44] <d4rkmonkey> does anyone know if theres a .deb I can download for pidgin anywhere? I don't like gaim, but I've tried pidgin and its soo much better
[12:44] <__david> What should I do to enable these devices?
[12:44] <LeoDioxide_> are you using a straight through cable?
[12:44] <mastager> chadeldridge: if you create a new user is it in the correct location?
[12:44] <amorphous_> if I want to use vnc, do I have to ssh into the remote server as root???
[12:44] <FunnyLookinHat> nj786, sorry I had to run...   just remove the entry that refers to Xchat and Terminal
[12:44] <evri2> chadeldridge:when it is ready.
[12:44] <BeastlykingsIsMe> how do I make a cd bootable without an .iso file?
[12:44] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_ yeah ive tested cable on windows pc and it works
[12:44] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: Why not download it from pidgin.im ?
[12:45] <d4rkmonkey> pidgin.im? I'll try that
[12:45] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: can you ping the windows pc, or can you never get an IP?
[12:45] <g[r] eek> its definately not the hardware
[12:45] <chadeldridge> evri2:  thanks that was tons of help ... ill print that on TP so i can wipe my bum with it
[12:45] <d4rkmonkey> PurpZeY, I don't think theres a .deb
[12:45] <BeastlykingsIsMe> how do I make a cd bootable without an .iso file?
[12:45] <d4rkmonkey> how hard is it to install from source?
[12:45] <nj786> FunnyLookinHat: ok where is it under
[12:45] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: really simple.
[12:45] <chadeldridge> mastager:  nope .. same for all users ... i just found that it was a known issue with 2.18 but its fixed in 2.19 ... although no idea when 2.19 releases
[12:45] <nj786> FunnyLookinHat: what tab?
[12:45] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: 3 commands.
[12:45] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: when pinging windows pc (on lan) destination host unreachable
[12:46] <FunnyLookinHat> nj786, Startup Programs
[12:46] <LeoDioxide_> are both pcs on the same subnet?
[12:46] <Hatty> http://live.gnome.org/TwoPointNineteen
[12:46] <kijjaz> for __david's question, should alsaconf be used? and how do we find alsaconf in Ubuntu?
[12:46] <mastager> chadeldridge: sorry dude
[12:46] <d4rkmonkey> PurpZeY, can you send me commands in a query?
[12:46] <nj786> FunnyLookinHat: ok i dont see IRC anywhere
[12:46] <g[r] eek> yup, 255.255.255.0
[12:46] <g[r] eek> both 192.168.0.x
[12:46] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: and your ethernet card is working in linux, module loaded and all that?
[12:46] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: It's in the package in a readme type file... it's just ./configure, make, sudo make install
[12:46] <FunnyLookinHat> nj786, then it's probably starting up from somewhere else...  I don't know where else it could be though   : (   sorry
[12:46] <BKISME> how do I make a cd bootable without an .iso file?
[12:46] <d4rkmonkey> ok
[12:47] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: You'll also need the build-essentials package.
[12:47] <evilfourzero> hey, can someone here please cat /proc/filesystems, and pastebin the output for me?
[12:47] <g[r] eek> (addresses)
[12:47] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_ as far as i can tell yes. perhaps a command to tst?
[12:47] <g[r] eek> *test
[12:47] <g[r] eek> ifconfig returns eth0 - but tahts just the /etc/network/interfaces file i think
[12:47] <d4rkmonkey> thanks PurpZeY
[12:47] <BKISME> how do I make a cd bootable without an .iso file?
[12:47] <g[r] eek> ie: eth0 shows up. so i assume that network car correctly installed/recognised
[12:47] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: No worries...I'll be here if you run into a program...Hopefully I can help...=)
[12:47] <cellfish> hey guys
[12:47] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: lspci should show your ethernet card as being detected, then you can look for the corresponding module with lsmod
[12:48] <g[r] eek> yeah lspci shows ethernet controller (realtek) which is my network card
[12:48] <g[r] eek> lsmod?
[12:48] <LeoDioxide_> yeah
[12:48] <Judg3_Dr34D> geia sou ellada
[12:49] <g[r] eek> kalispera
[12:49] <Judg3_Dr34D> :)
[12:49] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: how do i make it lsmod page by page
[12:49] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: lsmod | more
[12:49] <g[r] eek> ok, and im looking for eth0?
[12:50] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: you should have rt###x or something close to that
[12:50] <d4rkmonkey> PurpZeY, just installed build-essential, how do I used configure?
[12:50] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: Did you download pidgin?
[12:50] <d4rkmonkey> yeah
[12:50] <evilfourzero> hey, can someone here please cat /proc/filesystems, and pastebin the output for me?
[12:50] <d4rkmonkey> I'm in the directory that i downloaded the .tar.bz2 to..
[12:50] <d4rkmonkey> do I need to extract it first or something?
[12:50] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: Yeah...extract it
[12:50] <d4rkmonkey> ok
[12:51] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: I usually use /home/apps/
[12:51] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: nope nothing there of that sort
[12:51] <John2> how can you make vlc player or kino to look at s-video input?
[12:51] <LeoDioxide_> whats your NIC card?
[12:51] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: So it'd be /home/apps/pidgin
[12:51] <d4rkmonkey> ok
[12:51] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: what like the make? its a realtek
[12:52] <WaxyFresh> anyone ever setup a ati radeon 1150?
[12:52] <John`> anyone know?
[12:52] <LeoDioxide_> I guess you could try modprobe 8139too, but it helps to know the make for the exact module
[12:52] <d4rkmonkey> ok PurpZeY after I extract what do I do?
[12:52] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: ah yes 8139 stuff pops up in lsmod
[12:52] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: Open a terminal
[12:52] <d4rkmonkey> yeah
[12:53] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: Then run the command ./configure
[12:53] <g[r] eek> 8139cp,8139too,sis900
[12:53] <g[r] eek> next to module called "mii"
[12:53] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: That will do a whole bunch of things
[12:53] <d4rkmonkey> uhh
[12:53] <Takesinn> Ey guys
[12:53] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: thats good, so your have your NIC and it's loaded, is your broadcast address and routing table correct?
[12:53] <Takesinn> Banshee shows foren characters wrong
[12:53] <Takesinn> It's like weird boxes with numbers and stuff
[12:53] <arben> ty _ubotu_

[12:53] <Takesinn> How do I change the font in Banshee?
[12:53] <d4rkmonkey> PurpZeY, bash: ./configure: No such file or directory
[12:53] <vox754> !thanks | arben
[12:53] <ubotu> arben: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[12:53] <d4rkmonkey> got that error
[12:53] <LeoDioxide_> 192.168.0.255 for broadcast, 255.255.255.0 for subnet
[12:53] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: You must be in the same dir as you extracted the source
[12:54] <d4rkmonkey> I was.
[12:54] <John`> how can you make vlc player or kino to look at s-video input?
[12:54] <d4rkmonkey> o_O
[12:54] <d4rkmonkey> might not have been.. let me try again
[12:54] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: You have to not have been.
[12:54] <d4rkmonkey> lol, yeah I wasn't
[12:54] <d4rkmonkey> I was in /apps
[12:55] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: im not sure what to set the broadcast address to?
[12:55] <g[r] eek> i know how to set it though
[12:55] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: 192.168.0.255
[12:55] <d4rkmonkey> o_O says I didn't have GLib
[12:55] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: also, if you have more than 1 NIC, maybe an onboard ethernet port, you might have to bring up eth1 with the same info
[12:55] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: Ok, that means you need another package, one sec, I'll get you the exact name
[12:55] <d4rkmonkey> ok
[12:55] <d4rkmonkey> thanks PurpZeY
[12:56] <WaxyFresh> whats the apt-get to install beryl?
[12:56] <LeoDioxide_> apt-get install beryl
[12:56] <PurpZeY> WaxyFresh: beryl
[12:56] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: i tried configuring an eth1 earlier and it failed

[12:56] <WaxyFresh> thanks
[12:56] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: is 192.168.0.255 the fixed broadcast address for all installations?
[12:56] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: device not found?
[12:56] <WaxyFresh> PurpZeY: what the command to start it alt-f2?
[12:56] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: yeah
[12:57] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: so you only have 1 port then, whats your /etc/resolv.conf look like?
[12:57] <Masai47> I a new to Ubuntu and set up a dual boot everything worked fine but after logging into windows and then back into Ubuntu the title bar on all my windows were missing, any suggestions on how to fix this?  also if I open the terminal a white box appears but I can no text.
[12:57] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: Which glib does it say?
[12:57] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: resolv.conf just has the two dns servers
[12:57] <d4rkmonkey> it says
[12:58] <d4rkmonkey> GLib 2.0 development headers
[12:58] <PurpZeY> Ok.
[12:58] <WaxyFresh> how do you start beryl after instaling it with apt-get?

I'll boot alternate, make my partitions on each drive, and go to configure software raid, and somehow it magically already knows about the raid, but it only uses 1 drive. It makes a raid 1 with 1 drive and makes md0 without me doing it! I cannot delete the device because it says it's in use. Any ideas?

[01:16] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: at least log in and check the settings on that, maybe you have to add your mac address?
[01:16] <g[r] eek> windows box, linux box - both connect via straight through utp to switch, which receives lan cable. lan cable at other end connects to router
[01:16] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: nah never had to do it before
[01:16] <g[r] eek> im pretty sure its something wrong wiht my linux box settings
[01:16] <g[r] eek> possibly a conflict with the sis900 and the 8139too ?
[01:16] <frantic> Can someone tell me how I compile python?
[01:16] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: go to your windows box, open up your browser, and go to 192.168.0.1
[01:17] <g[r] eek> because lspci shows both a sis ethernet controller and a realtek
[01:17] <LeoDioxide_> uh....
[01:17] <pandora--> can i upgrade glibc with synaptic?
[01:17] <LeoDioxide_> you only get eth0, no eth1?
[01:17] <g[r] eek> "unable to conncet"
[01:17] <g[r] eek> ifconfig only returns eth0 and lo
[01:17] <LeoDioxide_> is your windows box on 192.168.0.*?
[01:17] <g[r] eek> so no eth1
[01:17] <LeoDioxide_> do ifconfig eth1 up
[01:18] <r0ut1> pandora--: of corse) just selecta new version
[01:18] <pandora--> r0ut1: what is it under?
[01:18] <pandora--> r0ut1: i had trouble finding it

[01:18] <SpiderMan> Rephrasing: Do the ShipIt CSs work with MacBooks?
[01:18] <LeoDioxide_> :bog:, what is your routers IP address?
[01:18] <frantic> Anyone know what the problem is?
[01:19] <LeoDioxide_> and is it a router, or a switch?
[01:19] <LeoDioxide_> if you're just plugged into a switch, this will make a whole lot more sense
[01:19] <Masai47> actually it might be an issue with compiz, I see to things on my system monitor, I did not intentionally install it but a few days ago I installed a whole bunch of things on the terminal with out really knowing what was going on, it being my first day with Ubuntu, how can I remove it?
[01:19] <frantic> IS THERE ANY PYTHON EXPERT HERE I CAN PM?
[01:20] <SpiderMan> Do ShipIT CDs work with MacBooks?
[01:20] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: its just a simple switch.
[01:20] <pandora--> r0ut1: do you know?
[01:20] <wren> could anybody help me figure out why i get a black screen and lockup when trying to play tremulous? i have geforce4 mx
[01:20] <g[r] eek> my windows box and my linux box both plug into this switch
[01:20] <g[r] eek> and this switch is connected to the router
[01:20] <g[r] eek> which connects me to the internet
[01:20] <preaction> frantic: try #python
[01:20] <LeoDioxide_> ...
[01:20] <kitche> SpiderMan: they are mostly i386 or x86_64
[01:20] <preaction> !caps | frantic
[01:20] <ubotu> frantic: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[01:20] <LeoDioxide_> is the switch connected to the router through a crossover?
[01:21] <wren> i have tried the supported and unsupported drivers, and both were correct
[01:21] <LeoDioxide_> and is it a router, or a cable modem?
[01:21] <frantic> Thnx preaction for the answare I was thinking no1 could see what I said
[01:21] <SpiderMan> Kitche: is there any known harm in trying out the live cds on macbooks?
[01:21] <d4rkmonkey> PurpZeY, after I installed that package, whenever I try ./compile it says: ./compile: No command.  Try `./compile --help' for more information.
[01:21] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: You are in the wrong directory again
[01:21] <preaction> !1337 | frantic

[01:21] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: Oh.
[01:21] <hakk> ogmo: you got r6 and the darkness?
[01:21] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: b/c it's ./configure
[01:21] <d4rkmonkey> lol PurpZeY first thing I tied
[01:21] <d4rkmonkey> o_O
[01:22] <frantic> haha ok :D
[01:22] <hakk> rw
[01:22] <pandora--> libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found
[01:22] <Masai47> how do I install Compiz?
[01:22] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: im not sure. im in a residence. each room gets a lan cable that can be connected to our pc. i have two pc's in room so i bought a switch to be able to connect both of them
[01:22] <pandora--> synaptic should be able to do this?
[01:22] <kitche> SpiderMan: well they won't work unless you grab ppc which is not officially supported anymore but which macbook do you have?
[01:22] <d4rkmonkey> omg... PurpZeY another missing package :(
[01:22] <g[r] eek> but since my windows box is connecting to this switch and its workign on the internet, i figured the linux box should be simpe too
[01:22] <d4rkmonkey> You must have the GTK+ 2.0 development headers installed to compile Pidgin.
[01:22] <r00t_> y to install a ati driver?
[01:22] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: ok, just a sec, i'll get you the package name on that.
[01:22] <d4rkmonkey> thanks PurpZeY
[01:23] <r00t_> is there a easy to install a ati driver?
[01:23] <SpiderMan> the small one ... not the mac book pro
[01:23] <SpiderMan> white
[01:23] <d4rkmonkey> r00t_, I believe there is some package in the repos
[01:23] <d4rkmonkey> r00t_, I forget the exact name of the package for the ati drivers though
[01:23] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: there's a random router, with a random IP address, giving DHCP to your windows boxes?  I think the router hates you and won't let your linux box do anything fun
[01:23] <r00t_> d4rkmonkey, restricted?
[01:23] <d4rkmonkey> r00t_, uhh I'm not sure..
[01:23] <r00t_> ok
[01:23] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: :(
[01:23] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: regardless, you should be able to ping the windows box
[01:24] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: did you set up eth1 the same way, and try?
[01:24] <d4rkmonkey> r00t_, I'll see if I can find the package name
[01:24] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: yeah i cant even ping that so tahts a good indication that my config is messed up somewhere
[01:24] <aboutblank> can i get a terminal on the alternate CD before the install starts? if so, how?
[01:24] <g[r] eek> ok must i use the same settings for eth1 as for eth0?
[01:24] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: ifconfig eth1 192.168.0.201 netmask 255.255.255.0
[01:24] <g[r] eek> same addresses etc
[01:24] <d4rkmonkey> !ati

[01:25] <SpiderMan> the macbooks have intel processors, don't they?
[01:25] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: what confuses me is you would need a crossover cable or an upload port on the switch to plug it into the wall
[01:25] <SpiderMan> Intel Inside http://intel.com
[01:25] <d4rkmonkey> uhh some of the newer ones I think SpiderMan
[01:25] <logreeval> What are the dots when they are the password?, i typed a number on the end, but now the password doesnt work
[01:26] <SpiderMan> So ow can I use a LiveCD on a MacBook?
[01:26] <d4rkmonkey> PurpZeY, I don't think it wants me to install pidgin... another package :( You must have libxml2 >= 2.6.0 development headers installed to build.
[01:26] <logreeval> Please, anyone?
[01:26] <svcagent> peko pa toos
[01:26] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: No worries, I had to do all this myself.
[01:26] <d4rkmonkey> SpiderMan, do you know how to boot of a CD with your macbook?
[01:26] <svcagent> los k me entende

[01:27] <Stormx2> What on earth?
[01:27] <Masai47> how do I uninstall Compiz?
[01:27] <d4rkmonkey> SpiderMan, I forget exactly how, my brother knows, I'll do a quick google search to see if I can find it
[01:27] <JimDandy> Hello
[01:27] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: i duno. all i know is that the cable that comes into my room can just as easily be connected directly to my windows box and it conencts to the internet. right now its instead going into the switch's link port, and then i have 2 cables going into ports in the switch, each for my windows and linux box respectively
[01:27] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: ok, that sounds right, can your windows box ping the router at least?
[01:27] <g[r] eek> hmm no such device eth1
[01:27] <g[r] eek> lol, dont know what router ip
[01:28] <g[r] eek> would it be the same as the dhcp ip address?
[01:28] <LeoDioxide_> should be 192.168.0.1
[01:28] <logreeval> please, anyone, i cant get into my computer
[01:28] <LeoDioxide_> dns address
[01:28] <pike_> logreeval: ?
[01:28] <LeoDioxide_> logreeval: don't think you can recover passwords
[01:28] <Stormx2> logreeval: ... what happened?
[01:28] <ponicg> SpiderMan, i think you hold down a key when booting... apple or option.
[01:28] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: libxml2-dev  I think that's it, and if it is I'm pretty sure it's the last one you'll need
[01:28] <SpiderMan> ooh
[01:28] <logreeval> i tried to change my password by adding a 1 on trhe end in the User and Group thing, now it doesnt work
[01:28] <Stormx2> logreeval: You can log into recovery console and change it from there?
[01:28] <SpiderMan> one last question ...
[01:28] <Ricardo-Jarrett> Hey, I'm working from the FixResolutionHowTo, and I've ran into a bit of trouble. Is there anyone free to help?
[01:29] <logreeval> recovery console?
[01:29] <ponicg> SpiderMan, you hold the option key when booting
[01:29] <d4rkmonkey> ok thanks PurpZeY
[01:29] <aboutblank> bah, anyone know how to totally clear a drive of ANY info of mdadm? it seems to be saving the info from a previous configuration and i can't delete the device because it's in use (from the alternate CD)
[01:29] <pike_> logreeval: hit esc at bootup and go into recovery mode
[01:29] <svcagent> alguien xileno

[01:31] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: I would hope so :P now go to the linux box, do a dmesg | grep eth and see if theres anything besides eth0
[01:31] <d4rkmonkey> PurpZeY, I think I might be able to do it from here with the README... I'll tell you if I need help :)
[01:31] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: same with trying to ping windows box
[01:31] <d4rkmonkey> its still doin the make right now...
[01:31] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: make sure you do sudo make install
[01:31] <d4rkmonkey> ok
[01:31] <PurpZeY> if not you get all these permissions errors.

[01:33] <Hizzeh> hey guys
[01:33] <Hizzeh> I just installed ubuntu!
[01:33] <Hizzeh> It worked!
[01:33] <Hizzeh> I'm so happy
[01:33] <g[r] eek> hmm i think my cable is plugged into the realtek pci card
[01:33] <Hizzeh> Because it never installed before
[01:33] <r00t_> t_> im trying to install drivers for a ati radeon Xpress 1150,from this how to:http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=321766&highlight=how+to+xgl+session  but it stals at this point:sudo module-assistant build fglrx
[01:33] <Hizzeh> Anyways, onto my question
[01:33] <Hizzeh> Where is the ndiswrapper utility located on the live cd?
[01:33] <nimbo> Hizzeh: nice
[01:33] <rael> hello, today is my birthday
[01:33] <SpiderMan> Congratulations Hizzeh!
[01:33] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: right, plug it into the other one >.<
[01:33] <g[r] eek> one sec
[01:33] <nimbo> Hizzeh: it isn't
[01:33] <Ricardo-Jarrett> /gratz
[01:33] <Hizzeh> I had to hop on windows to access the internet, as I could not find the ndiswrapper utility to install
[01:33] <SpiderMan> happy Birthday Rael!
[01:33] <Hizzeh> Oh, it said it was :(
[01:33] <nimbo> Hizzeh: yeah i know, but you can download it and install it on ubuntu
[01:33] <gnudoc> anyone know where hal holds the cached files before writing them to a usb drive?
[01:33] <Hizzeh> ah, I'm unable to get a cord from the router to here
[01:34] <rael> thank you
[01:34] <Hizzeh> So I guess I need to burn something on a CD
[01:34] <nimbo> Hizzeh: or usb drive
[01:34] <Ricardo-Jarrett> Resolution Problem -- when I type - "sudo aticonfig --resolution=1024x768,600x800,640,480" and get the error - "Error: Section # expected"
[01:34] <gnudoc> a friend of mine just pulled out his isb drive too early! :(
[01:34] <Hizzeh> Yeah, I don't have a USB drive though :(
[01:34] <Hizzeh> Anyways, I have CD's aplenty
[01:34] <SpiderMan> huh?
[01:34] <Hizzeh> CDs a'plenty*
[01:34] <nimbo> Hizzeh: cdrw works finde 2
[01:34] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: there is not other input for cable at the back of my pc
[01:34] <Hizzeh> yeah
[01:34] <SpiderMan> does your cd writer work?
[01:34] <Hizzeh> So, is there any linux drivers for a linksys wireless adapter?
[01:34] <g[r] eek> so probably the card its plugged into is indeed the SiS oen
[01:34] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: go to your linux box's bios, and turn off the ethernet controller
[01:34] <Hizzeh> yes it does, Spiderman :)
[01:34] <gerro> what is difference between g++_4%3a4.1.2-1ubuntu1_i386.deb and g++-4.1_4.1.2-0ubuntu4_i386.deb?
[01:34] <JimDandy> Goodnight!
[01:34] <Hizzeh> I just burned Ubuntu today
[01:35] <Hizzeh> on my CD drive
[01:35] <SpiderMan> Great!
[01:35] <Hizzeh> (well, dvd)
[01:35] <g[r] eek> ok one sec
[01:35] <d4rkmonkey> PurpZeY, I finished the make install, how exactly do I run pidgin?
[01:35] <nimbo> Hizzeh: what's that, ethernet? wifi?
[01:35] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: type pidgin
[01:35] <g[r] eek> how do i reboot from commadn line?
[01:35] <Hizzeh> wifi
[01:35] <d4rkmonkey> lol should of thought of that
[01:35] <Hizzeh> one sec, Ill get the exact model
[01:35] <d4rkmonkey> thanks :)
[01:35] <nimbo> Hizzeh: i dunno, ask google, or ask ubuntu's network settings ;-)
[01:35] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: It's working ok?
[01:35] <gerro> g[r] eek: try "reboot" or "shutdown -h 0"
[01:35] <g[r] eek> shutdown 0r
[01:35] <d4rkmonkey> uhh got an error when I started it
[01:35] <g[r] eek> shutdown -r
[01:36] <LeoDioxide_> halt?
[01:36] <Hizzeh> WUSB54GSC
[01:36] <aboutblank> it's 'sudo shutdown -r now'
[01:36] <Hizzeh> that's the adapter I'm using
[01:36] <g[r] eek> busy rebooting
[01:36] <d4rkmonkey> PurpZeY, it says SSL support is needed for MSN. Please install a Supported SSL Library.
[01:36] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: What I'd recommend is to add it to your panel, just right click, add to panel, and type in pidgin
[01:36] <gerro> hizzeh: same adapter I'm using
[01:36] <Hizzeh> awesome!
[01:36] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: You plan on using MSN?
[01:36] <nimbo> Hizzeh: open up the network manager and you see if it works or not
[01:36] <Hizzeh> it doesn't
[01:36] <d4rkmonkey> yeah, I do PurpZeY
[01:36] <gerro> hizzeh: I think we have option of getting it working with either ndiswrapper or rt73 drivers
[01:36] <Hizzeh> as no wireless settings appeared in network manager
[01:36] <nimbo> Hizzeh: then ndiswrapper is your friend
[01:37] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: I don't know much about that, hold on, let me see.
[01:37] <d4rkmonkey> ok
[01:37] <Hizzeh> Yeah, I read about ndiswrapper
[01:37] <Hizzeh> where can I obtain it?
[01:37] <g[r] eek> sudo shutdown -r 0
[01:37] <gerro> hizzeh: google for it
[01:37] <d4rkmonkey> I'm gonna try setting up gtalk in the mean time
[01:37] <Hizzeh> rgr
[01:37] <Hizzeh> oh, gerro
[01:37] <Hizzeh> I couldn't find a .sys file
[01:37] <Hizzeh> on the drivers CD
[01:37] <Hizzeh> don't I need one?
[01:37] <gerro> hizzeh: just remember to do make uninstall with ndiswrapper source
[01:37] <Hizzeh> I found two .inf files and a .bin
[01:37] <gerro> hizzeh: yeah what were the .inf files called? I'm curious because I lost my cd
[01:37] <Hizzeh> the help in Ubuntu informed me I needed a .sys, .inf, and any .bins
[01:38] <Hizzeh> autplay.inf, and WUSB54GSC.inf
[01:38] <khin> can anyone play the video at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0480249/trailers-screenplay-1-10-2 and what are you using. ive been trying off and on since last night to play this. i compiled mplayer and its plugin from source and so far am worse off than when i started (now i cant even view the ad that plays before the trailer).
[01:38] <Hizzeh> Khin: Try VLan
[01:38] <Hizzeh> www.videolan.org
[01:38] <kazol> Is a GRUB boot diskette distro/hardware independent?
[01:38] <Hizzeh> The best media player ever
[01:38] <gerro> Hizzeh: I read in forum if you get it going with ndiswrapper you need to disable power managing feature in feisty/edgy that will make the connection horribly slow and dropping off
[01:38] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey:  libnss-dev is the package...you *may* have to recompile...not sure.
[01:38] <Hizzeh> ok
[01:38] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: ok ive disabled onboard lan controller lets see...
[01:39] <logreeval> pike_ i am sure of what do do, can you go through the steps again?
[01:39] <darkroast> can someone tell me how to pipe commands using sudo?  for example, if I do this "sudo echo '' > myfile.txt", I get access denied because myfile.txt is owned by another user
[01:39] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: yeah, I had that -exact- problem...
[01:39] <Hizzeh> Sorry if I'm extremely rouph, it seems completely different from Windows so it'll take me a bit to get settled down
[01:39] <Amelie21> a friend of mine told me that ubuntu is especially designed for black people ? is that really true ???
[01:39] <d4rkmonkey> ok PurpZeY I'll try that
[01:39] <Stwange> whoever advised me about the nsplugin wrapper for flash on amd 64, thanks - I can finally play the flying gonzo muppets game :)
[01:39] <PurpZeY> Amelie21: no.
[01:39] <Hizzeh> are there any linux drivers for creative x-fi/ATI's 1900?
[01:39] <gerro> Hizzeh: yeah gnome is quite different, I usually use xubuntu myself
[01:39] <pike_> logreeval: basically in recovery mode youll be dropped at a # prompt basically youre root. so you type 'passwd whateverusername' then reboot. that should fix it
[01:40] <Hizzeh> what is xubuntu?
[01:40] <nimbo> xfce pwnz :)
[01:40] <gerro> Hizzeh: ubuntu with xfce desktop its under synaptic as xubuntu-desktop
[01:40] <khin> i suspect something subtle is doing on. i tried using totem and vlcplayer and both of them dont work either on this video. im wondering if there some piece of software that all use optionally that i dont have which is causing everything to fail. like a specter than i cant see...
[01:40] <bnall> ubuntu is not mounting my windows partition- forgot the command to mount it
[01:40] <logreeval> the "Ctrl D" thing pike_?
[01:40] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: heh the boot phase has frozen when "*Starting PCMCIA services..."
[01:40] <darkroast> can someone tell me how to pipe commands using sudo?  for example, if I do this "sudo echo '' > myfile.txt", I get access denied because myfile.txt is owned by another user
[01:40] <nimbo> bnall: mount /dev/xyz1 /media/disk or so
[01:40] <g[r] eek> the plot just thickens..
[01:40] <Hizzeh> does xfce add extra graphical interfaces or something along those lines?
[01:40] <Hizzeh> Sorry, I'm unfamiliar
[01:41] <d4rkmonkey> PurpZeY, would you happen to know what I should do for gtalk? It says it requires TSL/SSL for login. if the library for SSL works for MSN it should work for gtalk too right?
[01:41] <Stwange> khin: how did you download VLC? I tried downloading it but it said the repository no longer existed
[01:41] <mrunagi> where can i find some good themes for ubuntu?
[01:41] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: The forum page I was reading seemed to indicate that yes.
[01:41] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: you're on a laptop?
[01:41] <PurpZeY> !theme | mrunagi
[01:41] <ubotu> mrunagi: Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
[01:41] <gerro> hizzeh: kde, gnome, xfce, fluxbox, icewm, blackbox those some major desktops for linux I know of
[01:41] <mrunagi> i said good themes =(
[01:41] <nimbo> !beer
[01:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about beer - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:41] <gerro> hizzeh: its merely a different graphical interface
[01:41] <larson9999> i set gnome up so it looks like windows.  i guess after more than 15 years(has it been that long?) i just got used to where the start button, taskbar, and system tray are and i don't want to change it.
[01:41] <Hizzeh> oh my goodness, ATI has their own proprietary linux software! I love them!
[01:41] <LeoDioxide_> !awesome
[01:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about awesome - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:41] <khin> huh? i dont get why that would be
[01:42] <khin> worked ok for me.
[01:42] <Stwange> !vlc
[01:42] <ubotu> Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Audacious, Banshee, Beep Media Player, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, XMMS (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based).  Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine  -  See also !codecs
[01:42] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: nope
[01:42] <nimbo> !bender pwnz!
[01:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bender pwnz! - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:42] <gerro> hizzeh: I'd suggest using synaptic, the ati driver on site works kinda crappy
[01:42] <SpiderMan> I heard that there more computers have Windows than all other operating systems combined.
[01:42] <logreeval> pike_ when it says Ctrl D or type the root password?
[01:42] <LeoDioxide_> oh, I'm confused
[01:42] <Hizzeh> yeah, Spiderman
[01:42] <gerro> SpiderMan: yeah in government/corporation storage sitting idle
[01:42] <Hizzeh> Windows takes up about 90%
[01:42] <LeoDioxide_> ubuntu should beast through a hardware change, nothing like that flaky windows
[01:42] <khin> but Blue Gene runs Linux. just remember that.
[01:43] <LeoDioxide_> windows died when I updated my bios
[01:43] <LeoDioxide_> POS
[01:43] <gerro> Spiderman: not to mention some purchase licenses for more and don't use them
[01:43] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: im going to re-enable the onboard pci so taht it boots properly. then remove eth1 and make eth0 dhcp. then re-disable onboard ethernet and see if it boots
[01:43] <d4rkmonkey> PurpZeY, before recompiling what do I do to make sure that I don't have 2 pidgins installed?
[01:43] <logreeval> pike_ ?
[01:43] <SpiderMan> I did not know it was 90% though.
[01:43] <minttea> Is there a key to hold down when booting ubuntu to redetect hardware? I seem to remember, but I'm not sure?......
[01:43] <khin> i went to see Blue Gene at IBM labs, somebody asked about the OS, they said, thats a complicated question. this section runs a stripped down version of linux. this section runs linux, and this other section runs... linux.
[01:44] <Hizzeh> does anyone here have a creative x-fi soundcard with sound working?
[01:44] <Hizzeh> I'm trying to find a linux driver
[01:44] <gerro> SpiderMan: that figure also considers win95, win98, millenium, win 3.01, win nt, all of which are unsupported and extremely buggy by now
[01:44] <aboutblank> Hizzeh: One does not exist.
[01:44] <pike_> logreeval: ctrl-d i guess
[01:44] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: I don't think you need to worry about that, I believe it should over-write...I'm not 100% on that, but honestly, I don't know how to remove it either, and I personally don't see damage...If you are worried ask the chan..personally speaking I'd just do it.
[01:44] <aboutblank> Okay, I'm bloody confused. I'm in the liveCD, and fdisk says i cannot write the partition table because the disk is busy?!?!
[01:44] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: all right, but from my experience the ethernet controller kills the actual ethernet port in linux
[01:44] <SpiderMan> whois BlueGene ?
[01:44] <logreeval>  ok
[01:44] <logreeval> ill try
[01:44] <LeoDioxide_> aboutblank: umount it?
[01:44] <gerro> hizzeh: did you just recently get your computer?
[01:44] <aboutblank> LeoDioxide_: I tried ti umount all partions on it.. none are mounted!
[01:45] <Hizzeh> Anyway to use my motherboards onboard sound?
[01:45] <Hizzeh> Yes, gerro
[01:45] <LeoDioxide_> :bog:
[01:45] <Hizzeh> kind of
[01:45] <Hizzeh> not really
[01:45] <khin> anyway, can anybody play the trailer at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0480249/trailers-screenplay-1-10-2 (not the preceding ad; the trailer)
[01:45] <Hizzeh> like a year ago
[01:45] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: hmm its not freezing cause i disabled the onboard lan. cause now ive set it back to enabled and its still freezing. i think its freezing cause this is the first restart after i added eth1 to the /etc/network/interfaces file
[01:45] <g[r] eek> yet eth1 doesnt exist
[01:45] <khin> and if so what are you using (ubuntu version, player version, plugin)
[01:45] <gerro> hizzeh: then google its model with phrase "ubuntu linux" your bound to find other users whom are trying to fix the same problems
[01:46] <g[r] eek> so how can i load up in safe mode?
[01:46] <g[r] eek> if there issuch a thing
[01:46] <kazol> Has anyone here made a GRUB boot disk?
[01:46] <Hizzeh> gerro, would you know how to switch to onboard sound?
[01:46] <g[r] eek> ie: bypass ifconfig phase of boot
[01:46] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: it'd do that if you're trying to pull down an IP on an interface that doesn't exist, if you wait 3 minutes it should boot
[01:46] <Hizzeh> because Creative won't release love for linux users for their X-Fi cards untill third quarter of 07
[01:46] <bnall> getting this when i try to open the window partition from ubuntu
[01:46] <bnall> error: device /dev/hda1 is not removable
[01:46] <bnall> error: could not execute pmount
[01:46] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: ah ok
[01:46] <g[r] eek> ill wait 3 minutes then
[01:46] <greg> is there any soft for ubuntu which can save files form youtube??
[01:46] <LeoDioxide_> thats a browser software
[01:46] <kazol> greg: You
[01:47] <CAL|Smeltn`> I have a question about wireless
[01:47] <kazol> greg: You're using firefox?
[01:47] <gerro> g[r] eek: press esc at boot prompt for root recovery console and you could try setting xorg.conf in /etc/x11 to use vesa graphics if your graphics card isn't setup yet
[01:47] <CAL|Smeltn`> ...
[01:47] <CAL|Smeltn`> there we go
[01:47] <minttea>  Is there a key to hold down when booting ubuntu to redetect hardware? I seem to remember, but I'm not sure?......
[01:47] <CAL|Smeltn`> I have a question about wireless
[01:47] <CAL|Smeltn`> problem really
[01:47] <greg> kazol: yes
[01:47] <mrunagi> !ksmoothdock
[01:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ksmoothdock - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:47] <PurpZeY> !ask | CAL|Smeltn`
[01:47] <kazol> greg: (sry for that) There are extensions to rip embedded videos.
[01:47] <logreeval> pike_ i dont think thats right or something>?
[01:47] <mrunagi> can you run ksmoothdock without kde
[01:47] <greg> kazol: know the names?
[01:47] <nimbo> !test | nimbo
[01:47] <logreeval> pike_ is it in the GUI or like the start up of it?
[01:47] <gerro> minttea: it should auto detect but you could try checking dmesg, lspci, lsusb, lshw to view information about your hardware
[01:48] <CAL|Smeltn`> I have showing in my network settings  2 wireless.. Wireless connection (wifi0) and Wireless connection (eth0)
[01:48] <CAL|Smeltn`> which do I use to get my internet to work
[01:48] <Jamesinator> I previously had my Network Proxy settings set so that HTTP connections went through localhost:3128 (Squid). However, I uninstalled squid, reverted my network proxy settings, but now when I try to install squid with apt-get, I get an error on fetching the package which states it's still trying to connect to localhost:3128. How can I "apply" the changes I made to my network proxy settings, since they don't appear to have been acc
[01:48] <c01100011> can someone recomend an audio player ?
[01:48] <nimbo> c01100011: beep-media-player , xmms , amarok
[01:48] <pike_> logreeval: if ya need to chance password but dont have a login that works ya need single user shell. did that not work?
[01:48] <Jamesinator> c01100011: Rythmbox or Amarok
[01:48] <kazol> greg: I use unplug-it's good and advanced.
[01:49] <gerro> Jamesinator: do the reverse of whatever you did..?
[01:49] <khin> rythmbox works ok for me, but you may need to download some extra codecs
[01:49] <Jamesinator> gerro: Please read my question before responding
[01:49] <Stwange> khin: Don't know if anyone's answered you, but yeah I can play it
[01:49] <greg> kazol: from where i can download it?
[01:49] <gerro> Jamesinator: I did
[01:49] <quinton_> Need help with screen resolution!, My ubuntu applications bar and trash bin bar are going off the side of the screen how do I fix this?
[01:49] <minttea> gerro: my friend bought a wireless card known to work with ubuntu, but it's not showing up. I don't know more info than that. thanks for the cmds
[01:49] <Jamesinator> gerro: Please make your response relevant in some way
[01:49] <logreeval> i wasnt able to get in pike_
[01:49] <bnall> when i try to access my windows files from ubuntu i get
[01:49] <bnall> error: device /dev/hda1 is not removable
[01:49] <bnall> error: could not execute pmount
[01:49] <bnall> any ideas on how to fix?
[01:50] <khin> what are you using (os version, player, plugin)
[01:50] <cman346> how come people as poor as I am don't vote in the real world?
[01:50] <Hizzeh> Minttea: Have you tried using NDiswrapper?
[01:50] <kazol> greg: Google "firefox add-ons" and search from the website.
[01:50] <logreeval> pike_ what is single user shell?
[01:50] <d4rkmonkey> PurpZeY, it gave me some message about an old version already being installed, but its installing anyways, I think when gutsy comes out I'm doing a clean install and just transferring some of the files that I want
[01:50] <gerro> Jamesinator: backup the proxy settings and remove them :)
[01:50] <minttea> Hizzeh: no, is that for using windows wireless drivers? or something else
[01:50] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: Like I said, it should just install over.
[01:50] <Compressed> when i typed 'sudo adduser --disabled-password dbserver' to make a new user (this goes successfully) and then do 'su - dbserver' ubuntu prompts me for a password..any ideas?
[01:51] <Jamesinator> gerro: As I said in my question, I removed them, however, the changes have not been applied. Please read Response #1.
[01:51] <quinton_> Need help fitting screen resolution... both top and bottom bars are going off the right side of the screen! help please
[01:51] <d4rkmonkey> yeah I hope it does :)
[01:51] <gerro> minttea: which wireless card? did you edit anything yet? oh and might want to check the forum if its known to work usually lots of goodies or tweaks
[01:51] <pike_> logreeval: try this: hit esc at boot. highlight the top entry and hit e  then go to the kernel line and hit e to edit again. then add init=/bin/sh to the end of that line putting a single space between whatever is there and it of course. hit enter and b to boot. then at # type mount -o remount,rw /    then type passwd username
[01:51] <khin> Stwange er what are you using (os version, player, plugin)
[01:51] <pike_> logreeval: that will work
[01:51] <gerro> jamesinator: you merely said you removed *those* proxy settings not that you disabled using a proxy altogether
[01:52] <logreeval> pike_ is esc supposed to get me to GRUB?
[01:52] <Jamesinator> gerro: "Use direct internet connection"
[01:52] <minttea> gerro: it's a wda-1320        my friend just threw it in and booted up
[01:52] <gerro> logreeval: yes when you boot and see it mention to press esc
[01:52] <gerro> Jamesinator: yeah
[01:52] <logreeval> pike_ thanks
[01:52] <Stwange> khin: ubuntu 7.01 (I think, whatever the latest version is), with firefox, the flash extension (didn't work on it's own) and the nspluginwrapper ( http://www.janvitus.netsons.org/2007/01/15/nspluginwrapper-adobe-flash-player/ ) (I think that's what's running the video, but I have installed a lot of codecs)
[01:52] <pike_> logreeval: yeah, np
[01:53] <Jamesinator> gerro: I was telling you, that was what I did
[01:53] <gerro> minttea: ooh a dlink yeah those are nice
[01:54] <Stwange> gerro: I have a dlink and this is the first time a distro has recognised it (although I only tried madriva and slackware before). I also have a problem with them under windows, where if they arent connected they cause the computer to hang for 2-3 seconds every 5-6 seconds until i disable it
[01:54] <pili> How could i know wich grafic car do i have?
[01:54] <pili> card
[01:54] <quinton_> need help resizing screen resolution to a custom size so the top and bottom bar of my screen does not go off the side
[01:54] <Evilbadwrong> Question: Is there a way to install Edgy over Feisty and still retain the other programs I've installed?
[01:54] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: 5 minutes have passsed still frozen
[01:54] <d4rkmonkey> finally got it working thanks for all your help PurpZeY
[01:55] <gerro> minttea: eh one of those antenna ones *sighs* they always end up sucking in my experience with them. Its that cheap antenna they always bundled with
[01:55] <PurpZeY> d4rkmonkey: Glad to hear it, not a problem.
[01:55] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_ id like to boot up with skipping the ethernet/lan setup phase
[01:55] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: umm, do what that other guy said :P
[01:55] <Stwange> quinton_: there's a way of sorting out this with the config files I think, but - sorry if this is a dumb question - have you tried adjusting the resolution on the monitor itself
[01:55] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: so that i can disable the non-existent eth1
[01:55] <gerro> minttea: think its cheaper and more easy to just get a usb wireless adapter dlink makes those to
[01:55] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: its server edition of dapper drake. no gui
[01:55] <quinton_> stwange, eh?
[01:55] <Ricardo-Jarrett> I have a problem using aticonfig, heres what my xorg.conf looks like - http://pastebin.ubuntu-uk.org/311
[01:55] <tunganet> I am fairly new to ubuntu, and i need a guide for dual boot.  Can someone assist me?
[01:56] <shavex> in compiz fusion, whenever i launch it my close, maximize, and shrink buttons disappear from all my windows, how do i change that?
[01:56] <minttea> gerro: my friend is trying reseating the card
[01:56] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: I never figured out how to cancel boot
[01:56] <g[r] eek> ah ok press Esc at boot prompt
[01:56] <g[r] eek> one sec
[01:56] <Stwange> quinton_:  never mind, I thought you were talking about adjusting the monitor display size
[01:56] <nimbo> tunganet: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:56] <nimbo> !grub | tunganet
[01:56] <quinton_> stwange, uhm no actually i just clicked some buttons on the monitor for about 3 pixels, never though of it, thank you
[01:56] <ubotu> tunganet: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[01:56] <g[r] eek> wtf
[01:57] <g[r] eek> eth1 link up 100Mbps full duplex
[01:57] <g[r] eek> eth0 media link off
[01:57] <LeoDioxide_> yeah
[01:57] <tunganet> nimbo: nono i am trying to have windows and ubuntu on startup.  I am sorry but there are guides on this right? =.=
[01:57] <g[r] eek> its staring at me - booted up in boot recovery mode
[01:57] <gerro> minttea: hmm forum says it worked good with 6.06 so it might be a feisty/edgy issue
[01:57] <g[r] eek> and now its frozen again, but the cursor is blinking this time. so perhaps its doing that 3 minute thing properly now
[01:57] <nimbo> tunganet: you just need to add a few lines in that file to get windows to boot from grub
[01:58] <tunganet> nimbo ohh aite thanks
[01:58] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: does that bit about eth1 and eth0 make sense now?
[01:58] <gerro> hizzeh you there?
[01:58] <cbc> hey, im using the last xubuntu distro and after a dist-upgrade my fonts is too small.. any idea?
[01:58] <nimbo> tunganet: google -> http://www.geocities.com/epark/linux/grub-w2k-HOWTO.html
[01:58] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: why wasn't eth1 working before?
[01:58] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: I dunno, I suspect the onboard ethernet controller is confusing ubuntu
[01:58] <tunganet> nimbo thanks :P
[01:58] <minttea> gerro: he has 6.06 though, lol
[01:58] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: it's been a problem with some motherboards since forever in the 2.6 kernel
[01:59] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: ok well once i get to prompt ill disable eth1 in my ifconfig and reboot and disable onboard lan
[01:59] <gerro> minttea: does it give him wireless setting under ethernet?
[01:59] <g[r] eek> hopefully ill get to prompt after 3 mintues this time :P
[01:59] <nimbo> cbc: you can change the settings
[01:59] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: not the onboard lan, the onboard controller, it's some stupid thing that apparently guides the lan port
[01:59] <nimbo> cbc: user interface or something like that in the settings
[01:59] <trondh> so who has an ati card and uses feisty
[01:59] <LeoDioxide_> trondh: me
[01:59] <g[r] eek> ok
[02:00] <mavsman4457> i was told to boot from the Live-CD, mount my installation and change kboot.conf from there, does that mean reinstalling ubuntu altogether, if not how do i do that?
[02:00] <trondh> LeoDioxide_: are you using fglrx
[02:00] <aboutblank> mavsman4457: No, you aren't re-installing
[02:00] <tunganet> nimbo: will all my ubuntu information be gone if i am trying dual boot ?
[02:00] <LeoDioxide_> trondh: just the ati driver, nothing special
[02:00] <cbc> nimbo, yeah,, i know.. but if i do that another applications such as firefox/thunderbird stay with big fonts
[02:00] <mavsman4457> aboutblank: so how do i do what i want to do
[02:01] <nimbo> tunganet: no, just dont change lines in that file, just add lines so you won't break anything
[02:01] <minttea> gerro: I think it might be working now, it wasn't seated right it sounds like
[02:01] <tunganet> nimbo: aite, thanks for the info
[02:01] <aboutblank> mavsman4457: You boot... you openthe drive, you browse to the file, edit, save, and reboot :)
[02:01] <rich115> i need elp
[02:01] <gerro> minttea: umm well g2g then
[02:01] <rich115> some1 help me
[02:01] <trondh> LeoDioxide_: ah ok
[02:01] <nimbo> cbc: hm ... ? :-|
[02:01] <nimbo> rich115: wazup
[02:01] <rich115> can some1 help me?
[02:02] <minttea> gerro: later
[02:02] <_nfs_> does anyone knows if there is a gui application to capture online streaming sounds from my sound card?
[02:02] <g[r] eek> LeoDioxide_: cursor still blinking but not doing anything. its stuck after that eth0 and eth1 thing :(
[02:02] <rich115> i cant load my windows anymore
[02:02] <nimbo> rich115: just tell what's your problem
[02:02] <trondh> _nfs_: vlc maybe?
[02:02] <rich115> cuz i took off ubuntu
[02:02] <LeoDioxide_> g[r] eek: probably frozen, figure out how to cancel the boot
[02:02] <Xbehave> ive installed java 5 and java 6 but a program is telling me i need to update?
[02:02] <trondh> _nfs_: yah you should be able to use vlc and your soundcard as capture device to stream to a file
[02:02] <Stwange> I added this to sources.list: deb ftp://ftp.videolan.org/pub/videolan/ubuntu dapper universe     for the VLC player, but I get the following error:  Unable to fetch file, server said /pub/videolan/ubuntu/dists/dapper/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.gz: No such file or directory   - is this because it actually doesn't exist, or because I'm going it wrong?
[02:03] <logreeval> pike_ i tried it, got to the number thing, but then it could find the -o or something like that
[02:03] <gerro> rich115: the linux boot loader grub allows for dual booting and it was installed with ubuntu but now its gone and you can't boot anything
[02:03] <logreeval> it was an error, so i tried passwd username and it said the token lock was busy or soemthing
[02:03] <mavsman4457> aboutblank: How do I get to the drive? I don't see it on the desktop
[02:03] <rich115> so what do i do to get rid of grub?
[02:03] <pike_> logreeval: mount -o remount,rw /   ? exactly like that?
[02:03] <pike_> logreeval: no space in .
[02:03] <trondh> Stwange: looks like that directory doesn't exist; either it's not there or it's in a different path
[02:03] <aboutblank> mavsman4457: I'm going to PM you, ok?
[02:04] <nimbo> rich115: do you want to install the windows boot loader?
[02:04] <LeoDioxide_> Stwange: just go to the link yourself and download the binary
[02:04] <rich115> yes i do
[02:04] <gerro> rich115: I think its option to recover on windows disc
[02:04] <logreeval> pike_ yes i think so
[02:04] <logreeval> wait
[02:04] <logreeval> no
[02:04] <mavsman4457> aboutblank: ok but I don't think I can sned any PM's to you because I need to register or something
[02:04] <logreeval> hold on a sec
[02:04] <pike_> logreeval: on most any linux box that will work to get you access
[02:04] <rich115> is there any way to do it withouyt the CD?
[02:04] <g[r] eek> ffs im reinstalling
[02:04] <tunganet> nimbo: its really confusing.. =\

[02:05] <nimbo> oops thats for dos
[02:05] <Stwange> LeoDioxide_: thanks. But what am I looking for? There's Packages, Packages.gz, (same two for Sources), directories: dists, pool, sources - what file type or name am I looking for?
[02:05] <nimbo> rich115: http://www.ambience.sk/fdisk-master-boot-record-windows-linux-lilo-fixmbr.php
[02:05] <Stwange> oh packages.gz I'm guesing?

[02:06] <LeoDioxide_> yeah
[02:06] <LeoDioxide_> grab it, unzip it, and install what you want
[02:06] <rich115> so what do i dfo with it?
[02:06] <nimbo> rich115: run it?!
[02:06] <tunganet> nimbo: hey, the guide seems to teach me how to install ubuntu on a windows installed system.  But i am trying to do the opposite =\

[02:07] <Stwange> the binary just contains packages and packages.gz (which contains packages) - but that's just a text file, what do I do with it?
[02:07] <tunganet> nimbo:  thanks again
[02:07] <nimbo> :)
[02:07] <pike_> logreeval: np :)
[02:07] <nonewmsgs> stwange thats more or less my questoin

[02:07] <Ominous_> argh cant get beryl to work
[02:07] <Ominous_> :S
[02:08] <r00tintheb0x> im upgrading my Feisty install by replacing all the words that contain "feisty" in my sources.list file with the word "gutsy" and issuing this command. "aptitude update && aptitude -y dist-upgrade".
[02:08] <rich115> how do i run it if i cant get into windows?
[02:08] <r00tintheb0x> Is that safe?
[02:08] <kazol> Ominous_: What is wrong?
[02:08] <nimbo> rich115: is windows installed?
[02:08] <mavsman4457> aboutblank: OK I've found my kboot file and I can edit it but is there any way to install new kernel through my live cd?
[02:08] <sn0> r00tintheb0x using gutsy is only recommended if you want to help testing / enjoy things breaking
[02:08] <rich115> yes, but i cant boot it
[02:08] <sn0> its not ready for general use yet
[02:08] <nimbo> rich115: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=375198
[02:09] <Xbehave> ive installed java 1.6 but programs still want me to upgrade, why and how do i do this? i installed through repos
[02:09] <aboutblank> mavsman4457: Maybe... but don't try. why would you want to do that anyway?
[02:09] <r00tintheb0x> sn0 are you talking to me?
[02:09] <TaJMoX> r00tintheb0x: i've used gutsy and im keeping my Edgy
[02:09] <r00tintheb0x> ah
[02:09] <rich115> windows is already intalled
[02:09] <r00tintheb0x> i'll make it work.
[02:09] <rich115> i just cant boot it
[02:09] <r00tintheb0x> :)
[02:09] <RodGo> hi all i am new with linux and want to try some of the best games that are free for linux
[02:09] <TaJMoX> rich115 - you have to edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:09] <Ominous_> kazol: installs then dosent do anythinf
[02:09] <LeoDioxide_> bzflag!
[02:09] <sn0> r00tintheb0x yes hence the highlight :) i tried today's daily image of gutsy, its looking quite an improvement
[02:10] <r00tintheb0x> RodGo some of the best games i've found for native Linux are on getdeb.net
[02:10] <r00tintheb0x> BEWARE: that is not an offical site.
[02:10] <kazol> Ominous_: Is it running in the top panel?
[02:10] <nonewmsgs> my questoin.  i would like to install colem.tar.Z.  i untarred it and there is a makefile and a bunch of c suorce files and headers amd a colem.doc that totally is based for after installation.   how do i make it
[02:10] <Ominous_> ya
[02:10] <mavsman4457> aboutblank: because my ubuntu won't boot up and I think that it isn't just my kboot file that is the cause but I could try editting my kboot file and if that doesn't fix it then I could install a new kernel from the live cd?
[02:10] <rich115> well i already took off ubuntu so i cant edit it
[02:10] <Ominous_> kazol: hang onneed to reinstall
[02:10] <RodGo> r00tintheb0x: any game you can recommend me?
[02:10] <r00tintheb0x> BEWARE: Those packages are not supported by Ubuntu RodGo
[02:10] <r00tintheb0x> RodGo im not in X right now
[02:10] <aboutblank> mavsman4457: Er.. no I don't think you can even do that.
[02:10] <r00tintheb0x> but, i know ... hypercube or something is good
[02:11] <Cplunsford> hey all, quick question: Feisty supports built in Compiz already configured and what not;  does Kubuntu also support out the box compiz?
[02:11] <r00tintheb0x> its a 1st person shooter
[02:11] <aboutblank> mavsman4457: Is it grub that's erroring?
[02:11] <nimbo> rich115: doesn't windows has an repair mode you can choose when you boot from cd?
[02:11] <RodGo> i just looking for a free fun online game i can play on free times :p
[02:11] <r00tintheb0x> Cplunsford im sure it does.
[02:11] <PurpZeY> Cplunsford: It's not compiz it's desktop-effects, the two are not exactly the same.
[02:11] <Cplunsford> I understand that KDE and GTK do use different drivers in X, but Xorg is still xorg so it shouldn't matter right?
[02:11] <rich115> i am running from the ubuntu live CD right now
[02:11] <r00tintheb0x> Cplunsford granted that your X server is taking advantage of direct rendering.
[02:11] <Cplunsford> of course
[02:11] <mavsman4457> aboutblank: I don't know what grub is but I think it's because my custom kernel changed sda1 to ps3sda1 and then the update manager's kernel changed it back to sda1
[02:11] <nimbo> rich115: get the windows cd and repair your system
[02:12] <r00tintheb0x> Cplunsford correct, to an extent.
[02:12] <aboutblank> mavsman4457: Sorry, can't help you there
[02:12] <mavsman4457> aboutblank: sorry I have to go eat dinner but will you be on in a half hour?
[02:12] <rich115> thats the only thing i can do? i dont have the windows CD at this moment
[02:12] <r00tintheb0x> Gnome and KDE use Qt and GTK
[02:12] <nimbo> rich115: no, but it's the easiest way
[02:12] <ccollander> anybody know any good websites on programming c++ in linux
[02:12] <r00tintheb0x> or vice versa
[02:12] <r00tintheb0x> ccollander there's things allover google about it.
[02:12] <rich115> whats a way i can do so i can completely get rid of ubuntu and only boot from windows?
[02:13] <Cplunsford> r00tintheb0x, I have a Kubuntu box with an nv6800 running the ubuntu .deb nvidia binarys and wonder which option i should use
[02:13] <r00tintheb0x> rich115 explain your problem to me and i'll see if i can help.
[02:13] <aboutblank> mavsman4457: Probably not.
[02:13] <r00tintheb0x> Cplunsford which option for what?
[02:13] <r00tintheb0x> compiz?
[02:13] <tunganet> nimbo: will i be able to install windows on my already installed ubuntu if my harddrive is not primary?
[02:13] <Ominous_> kazol, ok installed again
[02:13] <Cplunsford> even though its fun to make stuff work, on this particular box i want any desktop enhancements to be sortasupported
[02:13] <tunganet> nimbo: primary amster**
[02:13] <rich115> i got rid of ubuntu, and now i cant load windows anymore, i want to load windows again, but i dont want to keep ubuntu either
[02:13] <nimbo> tunganet: hm ... i don't think so, windows will complain
[02:13] <nimbo> tunganet: if it's not the master
[02:14] <SpiderMan> Gnome does not use QT
[02:14] <r00tintheb0x> rich115 did you dual boot or did you overwrite your windows install?
[02:14] <kazol> Ominous_: So is it running in the top right panel?
[02:14] <Cplunsford> r00tintheb0x, compiz, beryl, the new composite of the two, and the different methods to make it work
[02:14] <r00tintheb0x> gnome uses GTK
[02:14] <Ominous_> ya
[02:14] <tunganet> nimbo: the master thingy broke =[
[02:14] <Ominous_> Beryl Manager
[02:14] <rich115> i put ubuntu on the slave drive and windows on the master
[02:14] <r00tintheb0x> thats why i said or vice versa, if you'd not be so fast to correct.
[02:14] <rich115> so they r on different drives
[02:14] <r00tintheb0x> okay rich115 thats easy to fix.
[02:14] <j1tters> hey all question.  on boot. if enough mem is available does ubuntu atempt to load as much of itself in ram as possible? or is this a setting that changeable?
[02:14] <rich115> how?
[02:14] <r00tintheb0x> Do you have a Windows XP cd that is bootable rich115 ?
[02:14] <Ominous_> berl in terminal gives Checking for XComposite extension               : failed
[02:14] <Xbehave> rich115: have you tried using the windows disk to restore the mbr, its mbr fix or some command like that,
[02:14] <rich115> no, not with me right now
[02:14] <j1tters> ie i have 4 gig of ram. can i force os load to ram. or as much as possible.?
[02:15] <r00tintheb0x> get one and go into the repair console and type "fixboot" and "fixmbr"
[02:15] <r00tintheb0x> and you'll be able to boot back into Windows.
[02:15] <r00tintheb0x> "Now with more bow-chicka-bow-wow"
[02:15] <nimbo> haha
[02:15] <r00tintheb0x> =)
[02:15] <LeoDioxide_> Xbehave: /format MBR fixes it
[02:15] <r00tintheb0x> i'd sugguest a fixmbr.
[02:16] <LeoDioxide_> I would too
[02:16] <tunganet> nimbo: alright, so now that i cannot have dual boot for windows/ubuntu.  I am thinking of upgrading my Edgy to Feisty.  Is there anything i need to be aware of?
[02:16] <r00tintheb0x> you dont need to format it, it's just confused.
[02:16] <nimbo> r00tintheb0x: i also did
[02:16] <LeoDioxide_> format MBR was 98 days
[02:16] <LeoDioxide_> windows 98 days
[02:16] <r00tintheb0x> It's worked a million times for me.
[02:16] <nimbo> r00tintheb0x: he wont get into his windows
[02:16] <r00tintheb0x> oj
[02:16] <r00tintheb0x> oh*
[02:16] <r00tintheb0x> he wont get into his windows?
[02:16] <rich115> is there a way to do it without the CD?
[02:16] <nimbo> r00tintheb0x: no, hes on ubuntu live cd now
[02:16] <r00tintheb0x> I dont understand.
[02:16] <nimbo> r00tintheb0x: he cant start windows
[02:16] <nimbo>  /boot
[02:16] <Ominous_> where can i get  XComposite extension  ?
[02:16] <Cplunsford> using the live CD you can have it auto reconfigure your grub
[02:16] <r00tintheb0x> okay, so if he boots from the hard disks what happens?
[02:17] <nimbo> r00tintheb0x: ask him :P
[02:17] <rich115> it says grub error
[02:17] <r00tintheb0x> nimbo are you assuming that i was telling him to boot from hard disk into windows to fix his mbr?
[02:17] <nimbo> r00tintheb0x: do you wanna emulate fixmbr with wine or how else??
[02:17] <r00tintheb0x> rich115 i know... you can either repair grub and boot into windows... or you can repair the windows MBR
[02:17] <tunganet> nimbo: alright, so now that i cannot have dual boot for windows/ubuntu.  I am thinking of upgrading my Edgy to Feisty.  Is there anything i need to be aware of?
[02:18] <r00tintheb0x> no nimbo i said BOOT FROM A BOOTABLE WINDOWS XP CD!
[02:18] <r00tintheb0x> READ MAN READ!
[02:18] <nimbo> r00tintheb0x: i already told him to do so ...
[02:18] <r00tintheb0x> okay then why is he still asking what to do.
[02:18] <nimbo> you don't need to scream
[02:18] <rich115> how do i repair grub then?
[02:18] <nimbo> r00tintheb0x: he has no xp live cd
[02:18] <r00tintheb0x> rich115 if i were you and i didnt have a windows xp cd...
[02:18] <nimbo>  -live
[02:18] <kazol> tunganet: Backup your files first-when I upgraded from Dapper to Edgy, it got corrupted.
[02:18] <Cplunsford> what is his drive assignment? I had a funky situation where my ntfsloader was on one harddrive and my grub on another, which caused me to have to tweek grub.conf
[02:18] <tunganet> kazol: doesnt backuping takes a long time.. =\
[02:18] <r00tintheb0x> then i'd just repair grub and edit the boot.cfg inside the grub directory.
[02:19] <nimbo> tunganet: i had no problems though i can't promise things will not break
[02:19] <rich115> how could i do that form a live cd?
[02:19] <rich115> and ubuntu is gone
[02:19] <r00tintheb0x> Cplunsford he can tell with "fdisk -l"
[02:19] <ubuntuEdgy> did you guys know that you can preview an mp3 by pausing your mouse on it ?
[02:19] <peepsalot> hey folks, i'm trying to upgrade from edgy to feisty.  i try to do it through this button in the update manager, and it says "Authenticating the upgrade failed.  There may be a problem with the network or with the server"
[02:19] <tunganet> nimbo: i mean like, is there anything i need to watch out.  or is it as simple as clicking upgrade to fiesty fawn?
[02:19] <kazol> tunganet: Well if something goes wrong, your files will be probably left intact, but sys. files corrupted.
[02:19] <r00tintheb0x> rich open up a command console and issue a "fdisk -l"
[02:19] <r00tintheb0x> and look for the one with NTFS in it.
[02:19] <timtux> is there any easy way to check upload- & download speed @ command line?
[02:19] <nimbo> tunganet: it is as simple as it should
[02:19] <r00tintheb0x> timtux look for a program called "iptraf"
[02:19] <r00tintheb0x> its EXCELLENT.
[02:20] <Cplunsford> r00tintheb0x, yeah im not an expert i usually have to look up commands and man page my way through stuff
[02:20] <tunganet> nimbo: i heard that ubuntu users who used automatix or easyubuntu will have trouble going from edgy to ubuntu, is that true?
[02:20] <rich115> what do i do?
[02:20] <r00tintheb0x> yeah Cplunsford me either... but --help is always a --help!
[02:20] <Cplunsford> thank got for bash's command history
[02:20] <freeagy> hi can i play iso dvds like daemon tools?
[02:20] <r00tintheb0x> hah!
[02:20] <Ominous_> where can i get  XComposite extension  ?
[02:20] <ricardo> hallo
[02:20] <nimbo> tunganet: whats automatix? whats easyubuntu?
[02:20] <Pricey> !automatix
[02:20] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[02:20] <r00tintheb0x> yes feeagy
[02:20] <rich115> what do i do again?
[02:20] <nimbo> lol
[02:20] <r00tintheb0x> !iso | freeagy
[02:20] <ubotu> freeagy: 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.
[02:21] <Xbehave> tunganet: nimbo: automatix takes shortcuts and so can cause problems, easyubuntu is better but could also cause problems(although it shouldnt)
[02:21] <rich115> can some1 tell me what to do if i dont have my windows XP CD?
[02:21] <ShackJack> Ominous - check out #ubuntu-effects  -- XCOmposite is not something you get but rather something your graphics drivers supports or you have to enable...
[02:21] <nimbo> tunganet: my wifi card didn't work on feisty anymore (without ndiswrapper)
[02:22] <tunganet> Xbehave: i have installed automatix before and uninstalled it.  So far it doesnt cause problems.  Will i have trouble going from edgy to feisty?
[02:22] <Stwange> can anyone tell me which files I should download from ftp://ftp.videolan.org/pub/videolan/ubuntu to install VLC, and what I should do with them? They all seem to be the same to me :-S thanks in advance
[02:22] <rich115> some1?
[02:22] <fujin> Stwange: apt-get install vlc
[02:22] <fujin> learn2ubuntu
[02:22] <preaction> Stwange: use the repositories, apt-get install vlc
[02:22] <freeagy> tank you very much :D
[02:22] <Stwange> i don't think that works, one second
[02:22] <Ricardo-Jarrett> rich11: what do you need the XP CD for?
[02:22] <preaction> !repositories | Stwange
[02:22] <ubotu> Stwange: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[02:22] <rich115> to fix my MBR but i dont have it, so what do i do?
[02:23] <d4rkmonkey> MBR?
[02:23] <ShackJack> tunganet: You could have issues - but do a sudo aptitude -f install to fix any broken packages and you are less likely to have issues...
[02:23] <Xbehave> tunganet: it shouldnt but as its 3rd party its hard to tell + any problems may be hard to diagnose, tbh aslong as you backup it should work and be worth the risk
[02:23] <nimbo> rich115: perhaps lilo will work
[02:23] <ShackJack> d4rkmonkey: Master Boot Record
[02:23] <tunganet> ShackJack: alright thanks
[02:23] <d4rkmonkey> thanks ShackJack
[02:23] <Ominous_> the thing is beryl did work then i ununinstalled it then decided to reinstall it a day later and now it dosent
[02:23] <rich115> tell me exactly what to fix it
[02:23] <nimbo> !lilo | rich115
[02:23] <ubotu> rich115: lilo is an alternative [Li] nux Boot[Lo] ader. Note: it is recommended that you use GRUB on Ubuntu instead.
[02:23] <nimbo> grml
[02:24] <Stwange> fujin: that's ridiculous - it worked. I've tried adding the repository and it said it said it didn't exist, and I checked in synaptic and I couldn't find it, your command worked though thanks :)
[02:24] <khin> it seems like whenever i edit my sources.list file i get "gpg error" whatever that is
[02:24] <ShackJack> tunganet: I also make sure packages ubuntu-desktop ubuntu-minimal and ubuntu-standard are installed with dependencies satified (they are meta packages)
[02:24] <fujin> Stwange: It's multiverse or universe I think.
[02:24] <khin> and it doesnt work.
[02:24] <fujin> Might not show in synaptic if you have em disabled.
[02:24] <rich115> so how can i fix the problem from the live CD?
[02:24] <fujin> khin: you have to add the gpg key of the repository you're adding
[02:24] <fujin> otherwise apt will cry
[02:24] <rich115> im on the ubuntu live CD and ubuntu is already gone
[02:25] <Stwange> fujin - yeah, universe, but I've got them enabled and I added that side to sources.list and it didn't work. Maybe the repository was down or something earlier.
[02:25] <nimbo> rich115: reinstall ubuntu
[02:25] <ShackJack> khin: Usually there the command line for doing so on the repo's website...
[02:25] <rich115> but i dont want ubuntu anymore
[02:25] <Cplunsford> fujin, hey how can I make apt look for the key file not in my /home/~
[02:25] <ShackJack> rich115: Wha?
[02:25] <nimbo> rich115: do it
[02:25] <r00tintheb0x> rich
[02:25] <fujin> Cplunsford: what do you mean?
[02:25] <r00tintheb0x> rich i already told you to reinstall grub from the live cd or boot from a windows xp cd and do a fixboot and a fixmbr
[02:25] <d4rkmonkey_> O_O
[02:25] <r00tintheb0x> why are you asking the same question?
[02:26] <rich115> how do i reinstall the grub?
[02:26] <teratoma> what's the difference between the various VNC packages ?
[02:26] <fujin> teratoma: they're different
[02:26] <d4rkmonkey_> does anyone know how I can get rid of d4rkmonkey? I forgot to register so I can't ghost
[02:26] <kazol> r00tintheb0x: Could I boot GRUB from a SuSe netinstall CD?
[02:26] <r00tintheb0x> firstly, you need to do a "fdisk -l" at the command line to see what your master drive is.
[02:26] <teratoma> fujin: why is the sky blue ?
[02:26] <fujin> d4rkmonkey_: wait for it to timeout
[02:26] <d4rkmonkey_> ok
[02:26] <fujin> teratoma: liquid ozone is blue, evidently
[02:26] <r00tintheb0x> kazol theorticaly speaking
[02:26] <Cplunsford> fujin, that was terrible english on my part... the file that apt stores the key so it dosn't complain about package verification is stored in ~ correct?
[02:26] <r00tintheb0x> i wouldn't sugguest it.
[02:26] <r00tintheb0x> (spelling)
[02:27] <fujin> Cplunsford: no, you do apt-key add iirc
[02:27] <r00tintheb0x> rich, how many hard drives do you have?
[02:27] <teratoma> fujin: I am glad I have brought humor into your miserable life, but do you know the difference between tightvnc and the normal vnc package?
[02:27] <kazol> r00tintheb0x: I have a problem where the 2nd RAID-1 HD cannot boot on it's own due to a GRUB error.
[02:27] <rich115> 2, the one that used to have ubuntu on it, and one completely dedicated to windows
[02:27] <nimbo> lol
[02:27] <r00tintheb0x> teratoma tightvnc is a spinoff of vnc.
[02:27] <fujin> teratoma: one is developed by a different group of people
[02:27] <nimbo> oh man rich ...
[02:27] <r00tintheb0x> Much like Kompozer is a spinoff of NVU.
[02:27] <Cplunsford> teratoma, because red light waves travel through the atmosphere more easly than blue lightwaves, which get disppersed allowing us to see it or something right? :P
[02:28] <r00tintheb0x> rich115 ubuntu is still on it
[02:28] <fujin> teratoma: I usually find tightvnc to be the best, although on my headed boxes I run x11vnc so that I may attach to my X session remotely
[02:28] <ShackJack> Dumb question - my Dad is going to be installing Ubuntu on a computer of his, I want to be able to login remotely and use the desktop and/or command line from another ubuntu to machine (to do fixes, change his user config etc...)... what should I be looking at - VNC?
[02:28] <rich115> i dont know how, i formated the second drive
[02:28] <kazol> r00tintheb0x: Someone told me I have to change the hd0/1 parameter.
[02:28] <r00tintheb0x> rich115 AT THE COMMAND LINE DO A "fdisk -l" and look for the drive that has NTFS.
[02:28] <LinuxGUY> Is there a way to check the ink levels in my printer, through some software on Ubuntu?
[02:28] <zeroglitch> can someone help me with a dns question for ics between windows and ubuntu?
[02:28] <Cplunsford> r00tintheb0x, still working on that?
[02:28] <ShackJack> !ask | zeroglitch
[02:29] <ubotu> zeroglitch: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:29] <r00tintheb0x> kazol if you're doing it in suse you may have to edit the /boot/grub/boot.cfg file...
[02:29] <bendover> for some reason, everytime i try to run a .php from the browser, it tries to download it instead of opening it... can someone help me?
[02:29] <fujin> ShackJack: ssh
[02:29] <zeroglitch> hehe ok
[02:29] <r00tintheb0x> kazol it'd be hd0,0 not what you said.
[02:29] <rich115> i did it nothing happened
[02:29] <r00tintheb0x> Cplunsford working on what... sorry im extremely ADD.
[02:29] <Cplunsford> what does ssh stand for, secured shell?
[02:29] <r00tintheb0x> yes Cplunsford
[02:29] <ShackJack> fujin: But will I be able to click around in his desktop etc... (or course I want to do C/L stuff to, but some stuff in GUI as well)?
[02:29] <rich115> i did the fdisk thing and nothing hapened
[02:29] <n2diy_> ShackJack: take a look in menu> system > pref. > remote desktop
[02:29] <Xbehave> ive installed java 1.5 and java 1.6 but a program is telling me i need to update?, how do i fix this?
[02:29] <g[r] eek> bendover: try ask in #web
[02:30] <zeroglitch> i have xp and ubuntuu sharing files, the only way i can get ubuntu to work with internet is throwing the ip address in the webbrowser
[02:30] <bendover> g[r] eek:  thx
[02:30] <fujin> ShackJack: use VNC then, x11vnc probably if you want to attach to an already running session
[02:30] <r00tintheb0x> rich
[02:30] <r00tintheb0x> do a "sudo fdisk -l"
[02:30] <kazol> r00tintheb0x: So it's a common issue and easy to edit the file?
[02:30] <r00tintheb0x> sorry
[02:30] <r00tintheb0x> kazol what are you booting from?
[02:30] <rich115> ok
[02:30] <r00tintheb0x> CDROM or Hard disk?
[02:30] <ShackJack> n2diy_: fuji - O.K. thanks both - networking isn't my thing will have a look at those...
[02:30] <rich115> i found the master drive
[02:31] <kazol> r00tintheb0x: Hopefully the netinstall CD would have the option. I had trouble creating a floppy.
[02:31] <r00tintheb0x> ShackJack i'd sugguest using tightvnc... its more developed that vnc
[02:31] <rich115> what now? i did the command and found my master drive
[02:31] <r00tintheb0x> kazol okay, so you have ubuntu already installed on a hard drive and grub is jacked up?
[02:31] <ShackJack> r00tintheb0x: gracias - will have a look
[02:32] <r00tintheb0x> ok rich what is it
[02:32] <r00tintheb0x> sda?
[02:32] <r00tintheb0x> sure thing ShackJack
[02:32] <rich115> /dev/hda
[02:32] <Cplunsford> Hey, I have another questiond, has anyone had any sucess with dmraid and ntfs-3g
[02:32] <r00tintheb0x> rich115 grub-install /dev/hda
[02:32] <kazol> r00tintheb0x: Actually it's SuSe-no one could answer my question in the other channels.
[02:32] <breodje> how can i open the Linux screen reader settings dialog, please
[02:32] <Cplunsford> or whatever the really good ntfs support driver is called
[02:32] <r00tintheb0x> rich115 i meant "sudo grub-install /dev/hda"
[02:33] <zeroglitch> anyhows, somewhere obviously dns isn't translating. Any clues where to go for this?
[02:33] <ShackJack> Cplunsford: ntfs-3g is the bomb - install that and ntfs-config...
[02:33] <r00tintheb0x> kazol its not a hard issue.
[02:33] <rich115> i got an error
[02:33] <rich115> sudo grub-install /dev/hda
[02:33] <rich115> oops
[02:33] <r00tintheb0x> okay kazol no problem.
[02:33] <rich115> here is the error:
[02:33] <kazol> r00tintheb0x: Are there alternate ways to boot? Could I just use a LiveCD?
[02:33] <Cplunsford> ntfs-3g is the bomb, but I get errors when i try to use it with my dmraid controlled 'windows software raid'
[02:33] <rich115> Probing devices to guess BIOS drives. This may take a long time.
[02:33] <rich115> Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.
[02:33] <r00tintheb0x> hmm
[02:34] <Cplunsford> dmraid sees the drive, the partition, but won't mount it
[02:34] <n2diy_> zeroglitch: menu > system > networking ?
[02:34] <r00tintheb0x> kazol do you have a /dev/hdb?
[02:34] <khin> how do i tell whether my OS is a 64 bit version
[02:34] <Dimensions> Hi ... i have had backuped my hdd as .tgz i have extracted it but when i boot the system it shows me all old and new kernels in grub ... loads booting splash screen but stops there .... What should i do ??
[02:34] <r00tintheb0x> khin "uname -a"
[02:34] <r00tintheb0x> might tell you.
[02:34] <Cplunsford> there is a show kernal command
[02:34] <kazol> r00tintheb0x: hda, hdc
[02:34] <n2diy_> zeroglitch: menu > system > admin > networking ?
[02:34] <Cplunsford> uname -a
[02:34] <Cplunsford> thats it

[02:34] <rich115> what now? i got this error: Probing devices to guess BIOS drives. This may take a long time.
[02:34] <rich115> Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.
[02:34] <nimbo> i686
[02:34] <r00tintheb0x> Dimensions reinstall grub
[02:34] <r00tintheb0x> rich do you have a hdb?
[02:34] <rich115> yes
[02:35] <rich115> i think thats the slave
[02:35] <khin> Linux someone-laptop 2.6.15-28-386 #1 PREEMPT Thu May 10 09:45:43 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[02:35] <r00tintheb0x> kazol what drive is Suse installed on?
[02:35] <zeroglitch> that's where i setup the dns yeah. even used resolv.conf
[02:35] <kazol> r00tintheb0x: both?
[02:35] <r00tintheb0x> rich115 ubuntu is installed on your slave or master drive?
[02:35] <zeroglitch> i have 3 computers networked
[02:35] <LinuxGUY> Is there a way to check ink levels in my printer?  `ink -p "usb"` doesn't seem to be able to locate my printers.
[02:35] <rich115> well it used to be installed on the slave, i removed it
[02:35] <r00tintheb0x> kazol i doubt that, what does "fdisk -l" show?
[02:35] <r00tintheb0x> rich115 how did you "remove it"?
[02:35] <LinuxGUY> So is tehre another piece of software I can use?
[02:35] <rich115> and thats how i got to the point of not booting windows naymore
[02:35] <khin> does that mean my OS is not 64 bit?
[02:35] <rich115> oh
[02:35] <kazol> r00tintheb0x: I have software RAID-1-they should be exactly identical.
[02:36] <r00tintheb0x> not sure LinuxGUY use synaptic to poke around.
[02:36] <rich115> i went in windows and deleted the partition on the slave with ubuntu on it
[02:36] <zeroglitch> 2 xp machines work for ics and filesharing,
[02:36] <nimbo> khin: no it's 32bit kernel
[02:36] <voidmage> What can I use to view .pic images?
[02:36] <r00tintheb0x> kazol lol
[02:36] <r00tintheb0x> kazol is this a server?
[02:36] <khin> how do i tell that
[02:36] <Cplunsford> has anyone gotten mean looks from African American customers when you try to explain them that there is a problem with their slave drive?
[02:36] <kazol> r00tintheb0x: Yes, what's so funny?
[02:36] <Cplunsford> I know I have
[02:36] <r00tintheb0x> rich115 then your only option is a Windows XP cd.
[02:36] <r00tintheb0x> nothing kazol though it was a desktop.
[02:36] <r00tintheb0x> kazol no problem.
[02:36] <rich115> and do fixboot and fixmbr?
[02:37] <kazol> r00tintheb0x: Btw is 10GB ok for a dedicated webserver?
[02:37] <pandora--> is it possible to upgrade ubuntu to the latest, without wiping out my system?
[02:37] <r00tintheb0x> kazol you need to mount the root or boot partition of one of your drives and edit that file.
[02:37] <RodGo> i just downloaded this package http://www.getdeb.net/app.php?name=ActionCube
[02:37] <r00tintheb0x> okay kazol
[02:37] <RodGo> how i install it?
[02:37] <RodGo> its to .deb files
[02:37] <r00tintheb0x> RodGo click the picture
[02:37] <RodGo> 2 files
[02:37] <khin> nimbo, how do i tell from that info that my kernel is 32 bit
[02:37] <r00tintheb0x> save them to your desktop and double click them RodGo
[02:38] <eboyjr> Anyone know the command for running the "File Browser"?
[02:38] <r00tintheb0x> eboyjr nautalis
[02:38] <ShackJack> eboyjr: nautilus
[02:38] <kazol> r00tintheb0x: So I could use a Ubuntu LiveCD and mount the 2nd drive from there?
[02:38] <r00tintheb0x> or maybe that.
[02:38] <r00tintheb0x> heh
[02:38] <n2diy_> eboyjr: Nautilus
[02:38] <PurpZeY> !vnc
[02:38] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[02:38] <r00tintheb0x> yes kazol
[02:38] <ShackJack> eboyjr: or sudo nautlius to run as root :)
[02:38] <r00tintheb0x> kazol you have suse installed?
[02:38] <r00tintheb0x> kazol do you have a suse boot cd?
[02:38] <kazol> r00tintheb0x: Only netinstall
[02:38] <Stwange> with GAIM, how do you log in? I have two accounts and I just logged out of one but I have no idea how to log in with the other
[02:38] <Ominous> hmm if i click the beryl sys tray icon then go select window manager then beryl it makes windows flsah but dosent change settings
[02:39] <nimbo> khin: uname -m
[02:39] <eboyjr> r00tintheb0x, ShackJack n2diy_  Thanks a million.
[02:39] <n2diy_> ShackJack: that should be gksudo for nautilus.
[02:39] <r00tintheb0x> okay kazol netinstall should work but if you're not experienced the ubuntu live cd may be more comfortable.
[02:39] <r00tintheb0x> no probl eboyjr
[02:39] <DarthShrine> Ominous, Are they enabled?
[02:39] <kazol> r00tintheb0x: Is there a way to get a GRUB floppy image? "make"/"dd"/copying files does not work for me.
[02:39] <Ominous> what do you mean?
[02:39] <ShackJack> n2diy_: Could be either ;-)
[02:39] <n2diy_> ! gksudo | ShackJack
[02:39] <ubotu> ShackJack: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[02:39] <PurpZeY> What is the most common way to share files over a secure small home network? Like mp3s from one PC to another?
[02:39] <DarthShrine> Ominous, There should be a checkbox next to them in the accounts dialog.
[02:39] <r00tintheb0x> kazol you can dd it to an floppy but thats about all i know.
[02:39] <r00tintheb0x> kazol can you burn anything?
[02:40] <r00tintheb0x> well you're in here i guess you have another computer.
[02:40] <Ominous> DarthShrine, accounts dialogue?
[02:40] <r00tintheb0x> brb gotta reboot kazol dont go anywhere
[02:40] <kazol> r00tintheb0x: Sure; and what's the path of the GRUB file?
[02:40] <kazol> ok
[02:40] <zeroglitch> hehe i got it
[02:40] <iphv37> anyone knows SPL sounds' website??
[02:40] <DarthShrine> Ominous, Accounts->Add/Edit? (I use Pidgin so I'm hoping it's the same)
[02:41] <zeroglitch> i had to put the default gateway for my 2nd computer into my 3rd computers dns list
[02:41] <Ominous> no
[02:41] <DarthShrine> No..?

[02:44] <spAcE> Anyone know how i can get my top panel back

[02:44] <ShackJack> eboyjr: Could be either... my gksudo has issues - no hard (in this case) using sudo - only have to enter p/w once and of course keep the parent terminal open..

[02:46] <spAcE> applications, places, system
[02:46] <kazol> r00tintheb0x: yes, I'm downloading the Suse 9.3 liveCD.
[02:46] <eboyjr> spAcE, You have to put them in maunually... You right click on the top panel and click Add to panel

[02:46] <spAcE> i got it
[02:47] <bnal1> rr makes you use a script to dial in - i searched the internet but didn't find much - anyone know how to make it work in ubuntu?
[02:47] <spAcE> thanks
[02:47] <munoz> ls
[02:48] <kazol> r00tintheb0x: Are you there?
[02:48] <blade252> hi
[02:50] <kazol> Where is everyone?
[02:50] <breodje> how can i autostart root services, for example laptop_mode
[02:50] <logreeval> Hi, how do i install the Java .bin file?
[02:50] <teratoma> logreeval: sh java-asdfasdfasdfasdfasd.bin
[02:50] <teratoma> that probably made no sense , sorry
[02:50] <teratoma> it's a sh script
[02:50] <teratoma> sh <filename>.bin
[02:50] <logreeval> in the terminal?
[02:51] <teratoma> yes
[02:51] <teratoma> you might need
[02:51] <teratoma> sh ./filename.bin
[02:51] <ShackJack> !enter | teratoma
[02:51] <ubotu> teratoma: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[02:51] <logreeval> ok
[02:51] <logreeval> thanks
[02:51] <n2diy_> teratoma: a bash shell script, bash is what runs your terminal.
[02:51] <jrib> !java > logreeval (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:51] <teratoma> tough crowd
[02:51] <jrib> logreeval: don't use the .bin
[02:51] <logreeval> ok
[02:51] <mavsman4457> Is there any way to install a kernel in the live cd or kboot and get the original kernel from the live cd onto my ubuntu without having to reinstall ubuntu altogether?
[02:51] <logreeval> thanks
[02:51] <breodje> how can i run laptop_mode as system service
[02:51] <mavsman4457> or get*
[02:52] <logreeval> why is the .bin file available if i may ask?
[02:52] <n2diy_> mavsman4457: Synaptic, or apt-get can install kernels.
[02:52] <jrib> logreeval: sun provides it, but use the packages java is much better
[02:52] <jrib> using even
[02:52] <ShackJack> mavsman4457: sudp aptitude install linux-generic
[02:52] <logreeval> ah
[02:52] <ShackJack> *sudo
[02:53] <mavsman4457> n2diy_: Even if I am trying to install the kernel for my ubuntu but through the live cd?
[02:53] <mavsman4457> ShackJack: same question as above
[02:53] <n2diy_> mavsman4457: don't know about that, never tried it.
[02:53] <ShackJack> mavsman4457: Can't you select recovery mode from GRUB?
[02:53] <mavsman4457> ShackJack: how do I do that?
[02:54] <mavsman4457> and what would it do
[02:54] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, so your running the live cd and you want to install a different kernel and use it in the live cd?  If true you'd need to create a new live cd to run the kernel you want.
[02:54] <mavsman4457> I want to install a new kernel for my normla ubuntu, not the live cd, because my kernel got messed up and I am unable to boot up
[02:55] <zenmonk> If I want to dual boot between linux and xp, what filesystem can I use that both partitions will be able to read and write to?  Will ext2 work?
[02:55] <logreeval> I dont understand how to add the multiverse
[02:55] <ShackJack> mavsman4457: From grub menu - either sleect recovery mode or select an older kernel (if you havent dleeted them)
[02:55] <bnal1> RR dialup help anyone?
[02:55] <ponicg> zenmonk, fat32 is the best bet - although there is some support for ntfs r/w.
[02:55] <ShackJack> logreeval: Prefs -> Software sources and check it off in first tab...
[02:55] <ponicg> zenmonk, I'm not sure how good/bad NTFS read/write is. I use it... but I don't know how safe it is.
[02:55] <n2diy_> mavsman4457: So boot from the cd, and run Synaptic, and get a new kernel?
[02:55] <ShackJack> logreeval: Erp.. Admin->Software Sources
[02:56] <teratoma> how do i get my sound to work after resuming after a hibernation or suspend ?
[02:56] <logreeval> its checked, so...it should work, correct?
[02:56] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, ok.. if it won't boot at all, ie. no grub appearing, and it's a fresh install, you may just need to reinstall grub so you can boot, then load the kernel you want.
[02:56] <zenmonk> ponicg: I thought NTFS was still at read only stage?  And If I use  fat32 isn't there the possibility of data loss since it has no journaling or system volume information like ntfs or ext2?
[02:56] <mavsman4457> ShackJack: How do I get to the GRUB menu?  What can I do in recovery mode?
[02:56] <khin> if i edit my sources.list file and the repository is for the wrong version of ubuntu, would that potentially mess up the list of software from the repository
[02:56] <aroo> zenmonk: you can write to ntfs with ntfs-3g, but it's dangerous
[02:56] <ShackJack> mavsman4457: Just boot up you should se it... If not -> http://odzangba.wordpress.com/2007/03/10/how-to-restore-grub-using-the-ubuntu-live-cd/
[02:57] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: well I can get to the kboot prompt
[02:57] <jrib> khin: yes, potentially
[02:57] <mavsman4457> is the kboot prompt the GRUB?
[02:57] <peepsalot> anyone here dual boot between different linux distros?
[02:57] <ShackJack> aroo: zenmonk ntfs-3g is quite stable now...
[02:57] <khin> im getting an error " Unable to find expected entry  main-amd64/binary-i386/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?)" from some repository
[02:57] <aroo> zenmonk: i have a fat32 partition shared between my windows/linux boots and haven't had any problems yet
[02:57] <ponicg> zenmonk, It's readwrite. I am writing to it now.
[02:57] <jrib> khin: potentially it could be even worse and break your system if you start upgrading stuff
[02:57] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, kboot prompt?  does that mean a shell?  is it text mode and asking you to log in?
[02:57] <peepsalot> i upgraded ubuntu kernel and it broke my fedora boot
[02:57] <jrib> khin: what repository?
[02:58] <misty> hi all
[02:58] <mavsman4457> well it just says press enter to boot up
[02:58] <misty> can someone tell me how to get a config file back if I have scrwed it up?
[02:58] <ShackJack> Whhoops.. "Hell's Kitchen" is on - gotta go! :)
[02:58] <misty> I tried apt-get --reinstall install
[02:58] <misty> but that doesn't put the default config files back
[02:58] <n2diy_> mavsman4457: no other options?
[02:58] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, and then what happens when you press enter?
[02:58] <jrib> misty: easiest way, purge and then install again
[02:58] <misty> ok
[02:58] <misty> is purge different than clean?
[02:59] <jrib> misty: yes, you purge a package
[02:59] <khin> the first part is Failed to fetch http://janvitus.interfree.it/ubuntu/dists/dapper-upure64/Release . the line i added is deb http://janvitus.interfree.it/ubuntu/ dapper-upure64 main-amd64
[02:59] <misty> I don't know how to do it
[02:59] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: when I press enter it tries to boot up but then stops at a certain point because the kernel is messed up
[02:59] <jrib> misty: aptitude purge PACKAGE_NAME
[02:59] <logreeval> i got it, thanks guys
[02:59] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, can you CTRL+ALT+F2 and get into another terminal?
[02:59] <misty> thank you jrib
[03:00] <zenmonk> what about ext2fsd or fs-driver for windows?  does anyone know about or use that?
[03:00] <jrib> !ext3 > zenmonk (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:00] <jrib> zenmonk: fd-driver has worked fine for me in the past
[03:00] <misty> it still did not put them back :(
[03:00] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: I am in the live CD right now, let me reboot and get into the prompt
[03:00] <misty> I did the aptitude purge, and then apt-get install
[03:00] <jrib> misty: what file exactly?
[03:00] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, k
[03:00] <misty> I need /etc/nagios2/apache2.conf
[03:01] <n2diy_> jrib: why the private messages from Ubotu? Wouldn't everyone benefit from them?
[03:01] <misty> I backed up the whole nagios2 so that if all the files get overwritten I am ok
[03:01] <khin> im not going to install anything from there cause its the wrong version of ubuntu, actually. but i was curious why i couldnt even see what was in there
[03:01] <jrib> n2diy_: too much scrolling
[03:01] <jrib> misty: what does this command return: dpkg -S /etc/nagios2/apache2.conf
[03:01] <zenmonk> jrib: is there any advantage to picking fat32 or ext2 then?
[03:02] <jrib> zenmonk: ext2 will be able to retain unix permissions
[03:02] <n2diy_> jrib: could they be redirected to #ubuntu-classroom, which is mostly quite?
[03:02] <misty> jrib: 'not found'
[03:02] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: I am at the prompt, you want me to press CTRL+ALT+2?
[03:02] <jrib> misty: ok, well I'm going to guess that you want to purge "nagios2-common" and then reinstall nagios2
[03:03] <jrib> n2diy_: I suppose, but then -classroom would be spammed with them
[03:03] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, yes
[03:03] <Dimensions> guys when mounted with live cd if i do su it asks for passwd ... what to do ... ???
[03:03] <jrib> !sudo > Dimensions (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:03] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, actually CTRL+ALT+F2
[03:03] <fujin> don't use su
[03:03] <misty> jrib: I think it's a different package, yeah I think so too
[03:03] <Stwange> I am trying to install java development kit (JDK), but that isn't listed in Synaptic. There are about 8 different javas listed, which one should i install?
[03:03] <n2diy_> jrib: ok, I feel like I'm missing a lot of good info., and was hoping there was a work around?
[03:03] <jrib> !java > Stwange (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:04] <Stormx2> Is there an easy way to find out what executables a package provides?
[03:04] <jrib> Stwange: if you have enable multiverse, you should be able to see sun-java6-jdk
[03:04] <I_Have_No_Idea> I just updated and now X doesnt work how do i reset it?
[03:04] <jrib> Stormx2: dpkg -L PACKAGE_NAME | grep bin
[03:04] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: CTRL+ALT+2 didn't do anything
[03:04] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, F@
[03:04] <jrib> I_Have_No_Idea: what did you upgrade?
[03:05] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, sorry F2
[03:05] <I_Have_No_Idea> Jrib 611packs Soooo cant tell ya there
[03:05] <spAcE> i have two computers using ubuntu w/ a kvm switch between both, is there any way i can creat a network between the two so i can transfer files
[03:05] <n2diy_> mavsman4457: F2 not 2
[03:05] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: I think I tried that but I will give it a shot
[03:05] <misty> jrib thanks for your help
[03:05] <jrib> !xconfig > I_Have_No_Idea (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:05] <spAcE> or can i transfer files through a firewire? usb?
[03:05] <jrib> misty: np
[03:05] <zenmonk> thanks for the help ppls I think I know what I'm gunn do now
[03:05] <Stormx2> jrib: Thanks
[03:05] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, be right back  brb.
[03:06] <I_Have_No_Idea> jrib: TY
[03:06] <steel_lady> can you restart soundcard without  restarting your computer?
[03:06] <Stwange> jrib: ah ok thanks, I didn't think to look under sun.

[03:06] <spAcE> Anyone know?
[03:06] <peepsalot> yay 508MB of updates
[03:07] <khin> i dont think you can use usb, at least.
[03:07] <spAcE> A way to set up a network with two computers w/ ubuntu
[03:07] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: it either made it boot or didn't do anything and it just booted by itself, still to no avail
[03:07] <mikaragua> hello world!
[03:07] <n2diy_> steel_lady: do you know what module the card uses?
[03:07] <peepsalot> hello mikaragua
[03:07] <nn> hows ubuntu ppc?
[03:07] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, did it give you a different kind of prompt?
[03:07] <jrib> !ppc > nn (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:07] <steel_lady> n2diy_ I don't know what is module
[03:07] <eNons3nse> my thumb drive was unplugged while it was writing.  now i've got empty folders on it that won't delete.  give's me an I/O error when i try.  how can i get rid of them?
[03:07] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: my timeout in my kboot.conf is set to 10
[03:07] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: no
[03:07] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: should I type in sh first?
[03:07] <n2diy_> steel_lady: linux speak for a driver.
[03:07] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, is this kubuntu?  no sh
[03:07] <nn> jrib: not where, how :P
[03:07] <KirillZ> I need to redirect incoming traffic to localhost at port 25 and redirect it to localhost at port 26? Please help!
[03:07] <mikaragua> what program should i use that can do vpn connection like what i did in winxp which has vpn that ask for username ,password and ip address of the vpn server?
[03:08] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: no it's ubuntu for ps3
[03:08] <Stwange> am I the only one who's noticed a faster internet connection under ubuntu? I have the same network card(s), the same router, and the same provider, but it seems to download about 33% faster - is it coincidence?
[03:08] <TaJMoX> Aynone have a good guide to install ubuntu onto my computer which uses nVidia RAID card ?    I have 2 SATA disks and I can't disable the raid
[03:08] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: feisty i believe
[03:08] <jrib> nn: oh :)
[03:08] <mikaragua> anyone knows that specific program to use for vpn connection just like winxp have?
[03:09] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, when you did the CTRL-ALT-F2 nothing different happened?  how 'bout CTRL-ALT-F6?
[03:09] <mosno> mikaragua: pptpclient
[03:09] <nn> !ppc
[03:09] <ubotu> PowerPC.  Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ
[03:09] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: I'll give that a try
[03:09] <tamubuntu> how can I get my Acer Orbicam to work on Ubuntu Feisty
[03:09] <eubey> Stwange, depends what type of download, windows restricts the number of simultaneous tcp connections, and i dont think ubuntu does, so bit torrent downloads could be alot faster under ubuntu, also the drivers on the card could be different, this allowing a small threshhold for speed increases
[03:09] <n2diy_> mikaragua: have a look in menu > system > pref > remote desktop
[03:09] <tamubuntu> I've tried everythingincluding this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=322218&page=6

[03:10] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, I have the same prob with my Ubuntu Feisty install on one of my partitions.  When I hit enter, it boots into the gui anyway.
[03:10] <Stwange> it's downloading from ftp I've noticed, haven't tried torrents yet. Not complaining though :)
[03:10] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: that didn't do anything but I just realized that when I try to boot there is an error that I haven't noticed before, would you like me to put it in a pastebin and give that to you?
[03:10] <LunatikBunnie> Blegh.
[03:11] <LunatikBunnie> Still no solution to USB Dsl modems
[03:11] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, ok.
[03:11] <Dimensions> I just reinstalled Grub with livecd ... but still when i am booting the system it stops on splash screen ... any one knows what todo ?
[03:11] <nn> LunatikBunnie: sure there is.. use the ethernet connector on it
[03:11] <KirillZ> Can anyone please help me with IPTABLES or ROUTE?
[03:11] <khin> Stwange, that plugin you recommended is only for 64 bit operating systems, right?
[03:11] <LunatikBunnie> nn : there's no ethernet connector on my modem
[03:11] <nn> ?! wth
[03:11] <nn> thats.. uncool
[03:11] <Stwange> khin - yeah, sorry. Try installing flash straight if you have 32 bit
[03:11] <chadeldridge> LunatikBunnie:  call your DSL provider then .. get a modem made in the last 4 years :-D
[03:12] <khin> gee. im starting to feel the pain of using 32bit dapper.
[03:12] <LuiCal> hello, i need help, im a newbie and i need to install a palm sync tool for gnome, please help.

[03:13] <d4rkmonkey_> does anyone here know much about pidgin? I've tried looking for help in #pidgin but it takes really long to get a response, and most of the responses aren't helpful.
[03:13] <n2diy_> jamie: read up on Nice
[03:13] <TaJMoX> niiiice
[03:13] <d4rkmonkey_> nevermind, I think I can figure this out myself
[03:13] <imbecile> can someone tell me the name of nmap conf file?
[03:13] <chadeldridge> d4rkmonkey_:  whats the question ?
[03:13] <Stwange> try http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/ and click download now, it should detect your architecture (well, OS) and offer it for you to download
[03:14] <d4rkmonkey_> chadeldridge, I was just gonna ask about installing plugins for pidgin, but I found an install guide in the file I downloaded
[03:14] <Stwange> i think it supports 32 bit (that's why I needed the wrapper for 64 bit)
[03:14] <n2diy_> imbecile: nmap.conf ?
[03:14] <chadeldridge> cool .. k
[03:14] <Stwange> khin: sorry, the above was for you
[03:14] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, I've gotta run.. Hopefully someone here will pick up where I left off.. If all else fails, it'd be faster just to reinstall.
[03:14] <Dimensions> can some one help me please

[03:16] <khin> for general notes, ive been thinking i should download the 64 bit version of stuff since i have a intel core duo proc. but since my OS is 32 bit, i guess this is a mistake
[03:16] <n2diy_> imbecile: ok, I was just guessing, did you try the man page for nmap, that should tell you what it is.
[03:17] <makaira> Is anybody here familiar with Xsupplicant 1.2.8? I'm having problems with it locating iwlib.h, despite my having it and it being located in the correct place.

[03:20] <mikaragua> n2diy_, it's not remote desktop i think.

[03:20] <LuiCal> thanks

[03:21] <n2diy_> mikaragua: it works here on Dapper.
[03:21] <demoncorsair> is linux-generic buggy
[03:21] <jscinoz> When mounting a smbfs share should the gid be the group name (smbusr) or id (1002(
[03:21] <mikaragua> n2diy_, you said lately that remote desktop is possible but i think not.
[03:21] <mikaragua> it might be using pptp
[03:21] <mikaragua> n2diy_, what is dapper?
[03:21] <n2diy_> mikaragua: it works here on Dapper.

[03:23] <khin> Stwange, well thanks. though after installation i still cant view the trailer. i can apparently view the ad beforehand though, so i guess it did something.
[03:23] <Stwange> khin: what does it do?
[03:24] <khin> it plays the ad and then tells me to get a plugin.
[03:24] <tamubuntu> Acer Orbicam still won't show on ekiga phne
[03:24] <imac_dude> chadeldridge, not sure, 1 sec lemme check
[03:24] <mikaragua> chadeldridge, i have a m0n0wall firewall/server that has an enabled vpn pptp connection, and now i want to connect to it using this ubuntu 7.04 desktop, that is why i need a pptp  client program with gui if possible

[03:24] <XiXaQ> Andrew67, yes, hehe, a file :)
[03:24] <chadeldridge> imac_dude:  multimonitor support for laptops is horribe in ubuntu ... basically the best way to fix it is to use either the nvidia-settings or the ATI control panel to just turn that monitor off and only enable your external monitor.  Everytime you disconnect the external it will go back to internal after a reboot and then you will have to do this all over again once you reconect the external .. its annoying as hell
[03:24] <jscinoz> how can i tell what graphics card i have in my computer? can i cat something in /proc?
[03:24] <imac_dude> 0000:00:10.0 Display controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage 128 PR/PRO AGP 4x TMDS, chadeldridge
[03:24] <andrewkk> XiXaQ: look for kdm
[03:24] <n2diy_> jscinoz: lshw
[03:24] <ponicg> jscinoz, you can try lspci
[03:25] <imac_dude> chadeldridge, not a laptop, its an old imac
[03:25] <chadeldridge> uugh .... gl with the ATI card ... but there should be a control panel application for it that allows you to just turn off the internal monitor and enable the external lone
[03:25] <chadeldridge> works the same
[03:25] <imac_dude> chadeldridge, ok ill check out the ati site
[03:25] <chadeldridge> cool
[03:25] <jscinoz> Geforce MX 400 is legacy right?
[03:25] <ponicg> chadeldridge, can't you use ati-config in a script to do so? then bind the script to a key?
[03:25] <chadeldridge> !ati | imac_dude
[03:25] <ubotu> imac_dude: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto

[03:27] <andrewkk> XiXaQ: if you have shell access to the filesystems try running "locate kdm". you should get LOTS of results on the kubuntu drive.
[03:27] <n2diy_> mavsman4457: any idea what /dev/ps3da1 is?
[03:27] <XiXaQ> andrewkk, and none on an xubuntu system?
[03:28] <crimsun_> digilink: blacklist the onboard.
[03:28] <andrewkk> maybe 2-3 depending on what apps or documentation is installed

[03:28] <digilink> well I need to use both of them, will that kill it's functionality? and how do I do that?
[03:28] <mavsman4457> n2diy_: well I installed a custom kernel for my PS3 so it changed sda1 to ps3da1
[03:28] <defcon> my ubuntu often freezes and wont open apps
[03:29] <crimsun_> digilink: yes, blacklisting it prevents the driver from loading, which disables the hardware.
[03:29] <XiXaQ> andrewkk, but I've mounted the partition in /media/disk. How do I search that filesystem only?
[03:29] <n2diy> mavsman4457: Umm, what is a PS3?
[03:29] <andrewww> Im having troubles viewing my own created videos with recordmydesktop.  When i load them in VLC player it just closes really fast.  What can i do to fix it?
[03:29] <digilink> crimsun_: tnx, but that won't help me :( I need both soundcards to work, I am using the onboard for one application
[03:29] <mavsman4457> n2diy_: a video game console made by Sony wihch can run ubuntu
[03:29] <crimsun_> digilink: no way around that.
[03:29] <defcon> andrewww, try reinstalling VLC and your codecs
[03:30] <crimsun_> digilink: you _may_ have an ACPI issue.
[03:30] <mavsman4457> n2diy_: PS3 = Playstation 3
[03:30] <defcon> also try using another player cuz the file may be currupt
[03:30] <n2diy> mavsman4457: Ah, a Play Station? Sorry, don't have a clue. GL.
[03:30] <digilink> what does ACPI have to do with it? this is a desktop? besides, I already have the onboard sound disabled in the BIOS
[03:30] <andrewkk> XiXaQ: locate's output gives the full path to the files, which should tell you which drive it's on.
[03:30] <mavsman4457> n2diy_: haha sorry but does GL mean goes looking?
[03:31] <preaction> good luck
[03:31] <andrewww> defcon, at first i thought it was the whole ogg format thing, but i converted to avi and it still doesnt work.  I also have w32 codecs installed
[03:31] <n2diy> mavsman4457: No, it means good luck!!! :)
[03:31] <mikaragua> ok i got it now
[03:31] <n2diy> mavsman4457: you can do the looking! ;)
[03:31] <mavsman4457> n2diy_: it doesn't matter if you know what a ps3 is or not, it's just a kind of computer
[03:31] <mikaragua> this might be the one pptpconfig
[03:32] <mavsman4457> n2diy_: could you still help me?
[03:32] <defcon> andrewww, does the file(s) work with any other player?
[03:32] <n2diy> mavsman4457: Yes, but they are kinda new, and your the first I've seen here, playing with one, so your out on the edge.
[03:32] <andrewww> defcon, No, no player will load it up.  But for every other video i download, it works perfectly (whichever application i use)
[03:33] <pandora--> is it possible to upgrade ubuntu to the latest, without wiping out my system?
[03:33] <mavsman4457> n2diy_: that doesn't really matter, it's still a computer that will work the same way as any other PowerPC
[03:33] <defcon> must be a bug with the record desktop, it doesnt work for me either
[03:33] <n2diy> mavsman4457: I have to run soon, I'd suggest Google would be your best source of ideas?
[03:33] <KirillZ> Is there a log file for all TCP connections made to the machine?
[03:33] <khin> hi, can anyone play the trailer (which follows the ad...i can see the ad) at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0440963/trailers-screenplay-E32394-10-2 and if so, what are you using (OS version, player, plugin)
[03:33] <mavsman4457> n2diy_: screw this I'm just going to reinstall everything
[03:33] <SMELTN> hello
[03:34] <SMELTN> looking for help with setting up wireless network on ubuntu 7.04
[03:34] <khin> its of the Bourne Ultimatum. if your a Bourne fan you should watch it
[03:34] <mavsman4457> n2diy_: thanks for the help though I really appreciate it
[03:34] <n2diy> mavsman4457: Sorry you didn't find your answer, but it seems to me you are exploring the frontier, GL.
[03:34] <SMELTN> Network settings shows 2 wireless connections: wifi0 and eth0  how do I configure it to make it work with my wireless network?
[03:34] <onexused> !DNS
[03:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dns - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:35] <mavsman4457> n2diy_: thank you and have a good night
[03:35] <onexused> !dns server
[03:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dns server - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:35] <mavsman4457> n2diy_: or day wherever in the world you are that would make it so you don't know what a PS3 is
[03:35] <andrewkk> How should I go about adding another network card to my computer?
[03:35] <defcon> what are some good ways to optimize memory consumption in ubuntu, my ubuntu often freezes and wont open apps?
[03:35] <scary> Anyone have any idea why my alsa drivers get removed when I reboot my computer?
[03:36] <LuiCal> please help dont know how to setup my palm in gnome piloy
[03:36] <LuiCal> pilot
[03:36] <calc> scary: removed how, unloaded or what?
[03:36] <defcon> andrewww, sudo apt-get remove recordmydesktop gtk-recordmydesktop , then sudo apt-get install recordmydesktop gtk-recordmydesktop
[03:36] <ali1234> andrewkk: just plug it in and configure with the network applet
[03:36] <khin> hi, can anyone play the Bourne Ultimatum trailer (which follows the ad...i can see the ad) at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0440963/trailers-screenplay-E32394-10-2 and if so, what are you using (OS version, player, plugin)
[03:36] <scary> calc: the kernel/sound directory is removed
[03:36] <defcon> sometimes removing and reinstalling works
[03:36] <calc> scary: interesting
[03:36] <Stwange> how do I set root.root ownership, and is there a way of copying out of synaptic? It keeps coming up with URLs in it's little terminal but there's no right click menu and ctrl+c stops the thread
[03:36] <teratoma> how do i install Java ?
[03:36] <andrewww> Will try it, thanks defcon
[03:36] <mikaragua> damn im beginning to love ubuntu
[03:36] <calc> scary: not sure why that happens, no
[03:36] <onexused> What can I do to let other computers on my network access the DNS server(s) this computer uses?  I have dialup and the DNS IP often changes.
[03:37] <defcon> andrewww, np
[03:37] <Stwange> teratoma: enable multiverse synaptic and look under sun-java or something similar
[03:37] <scary> calc: do you have any idea who would know?
[03:37] <n2diy> mavsman4457: still there?
[03:37] <Stwange> teratoma: not synaptic, repository, use synaptic to find it
[03:37] <calc> scary: maybe someone else in here
[03:37] <wiglaf> Is it possible to set time limits on user accounts? If so, how? (I'm looking for some parental control)
[03:37] <onexused> Or, how could I make this computer a DNS server?
[03:37] <Hizzeh> Man
[03:37] <LuiCal> please help me, i dont know how to setup my palm in gnome pilot
[03:37] <Hizzeh> I couldn't get it to work :(
[03:38] <Hizzeh> ndiswrapper failed me
[03:38] <Hizzeh> I couldn't find out how to install it
[03:38] <Hizzeh> So it appears I also have to download some source for it?
[03:38] <Hizzeh> and the ATI drivers from the website didn't want to run, either
[03:38] <aneviltrend> Is it possible for me to add a second IDE drive and create a raid 1 as my boot disk, without having to reinstall ubuntu?
[03:38] <ali1234> onexused: other machines on your network should not need to know the dial up ip, they cannot use it anyway
[03:38] <MSIGuy> Anyone know where I can find a "FBI looking" theme for Gnome's login page?
[03:38] <Hizzeh> I have the 64 bit of ubuntu installed (AMD), so I downloaded the linux version of the ATI drivers but it didn't want to run
[03:39] <ali1234> onexused: just set up nat instead
[03:39] <MSIGuy> Or like CIA or NSA or something like that?  Just with the logo and the login box?  I think that would be sweet...  lol
[03:39] <onexused> ali1234: How can I do that?
[03:39] <n2diy> wiglaf: research linux kiosks.
[03:39] <wiglaf> n2diy: thanks...I'll google away
[03:39] <onexused> !NAT
[03:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nat - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:39] <n2diy> wiglaf: GL
[03:40] <pike_> MSIGuy: i have an fbi grub theme i put together :)
[03:40] <Ai-> I have a web server machine at home using XP Pro SP2 and Apache2. I set up everything right, I can see the page when I go localhost. I forwarded port 80 (default) in my router but it cannot be accessed from outside of network. I also tested it with firewall on (allow port80) and off. I'm thinking of switching to ubuntu with apache2 if it solves this problem. Thanks
[03:40] <MSIGuy> pike_, cool?  Can I see/have it?  lol
[03:40] <ali1234> onexused: i only know how to do it the hard way :)
[03:41] <aneviltrend> Ai-: your isp could be blocking port 80
[03:41] <onexused> ali1234: okay.  I'll look it up then : )
[03:41] <ali1234> onexused: there's probably some ubuntu package that will do it all for you, but i use a separate router
[03:41] <Ai-> Ah forgot about my ISP,
[03:41] <Ai-> thanks aneviltrend
[03:41] <Ai-> ill check it
[03:41] <aneviltrend> @Ai- np
[03:41] <Amelie21> what is the name of the dark spot people have under the eyes when they dont sleep ... i am french and want to know the english word :)
[03:41] <LuiCal> please help me, dont know how to setup my palm in gnome pilot
[03:41] <pike_> MSIGuy: no ;p though its easy enough to do yourself. if you had any questions ill be in chan tomorrow
[03:41] <onexused> ali1234: ok
[03:41] <MSIGuy> Okay.
[03:42] <andrewww> decon, still no luck.  Though, i did sudo vlc player to see if any errors came up and it spit this back at me...http://www.privatepaste.com/cdvxUbE1YE
[03:42] <pike_> Amelie21: bags under the eyes
[03:42] <Amelie21> orly ?
[03:42] <Hizzeh> Hey, could anyone help me with several issues I'm having with Ubuntu? They're all very basic, but today is my first day running any linux distro ever. I don't want to spam up #ubuntu, so if anyone would be willing to help me in a PM, I'd be thrilled :D
[03:42] <imbecile> can anybody tell me how to fix this? Failed to find device eth0 which was referenced in /proc/net/route
[03:42] <scary> anyone know how to stop my alsa drivers from being removed on reboot?
[03:42] <vip3rousmango> Hizzeh: just ask your questions
[03:42] <pike_> Amelie21: yeah. that is most common phrase
[03:42] <Hizzeh> ok
[03:43] <ali1234> imbecile: er, did you change network cards?
[03:43] <Amelie21> thanks !!!
[03:43] <pike_> Amelie21: probably not as poetic is french :)
[03:43] <Hizzeh> #1: Does anyone know if ATI has Linux capable drivers for Ubuntu 64 bit for AMD computers? Their download for the x86_64 seems to only work with intel computers
[03:43] <imbecile> ali1234,  well i'm trying to run from my wireless card not a wired connection
[03:43] <Amelie21> in french its ... black butter eyes ...
[03:44] <vip3rousmango> Amelie21: ok that sounds odd..
[03:44] <Amelie21> fuckyea
[03:44] <Hizzeh> #2 What do I need to install properlly ndiswrapper? I downloaded ndiswrapper-1.47.tar.gz on my windows side, burned it to a disk, and put it on my Ubuntu side (to get my linksys adapte rworking for wifi), but I couldn't find out how to get it installed
[03:44] <Hizzeh> adapter working*
[03:44] <ali1234> imbecile: oookay. did you go editing conf file or something? eth0 should still be around unless you unplugged it
[03:44] <Hizzeh> #3 How do I specify to use my motherboard's built in soundcard instead of my PCI soundboard?
[03:44] <andrewkk> ali1234: okay so I put in my new network card and dmesg/lspci show that it was detected as a PCI device, but there is no corresponding network interface to go with it
[03:44] <khin> hi, can anyone play the Bourne Ultimatum trailer (which follows the ad...i can see the ad) at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0440963/trailers-screenplay-E32394-10-2 and if so, what are you using (OS version, player, plugin)
[03:44] <ali1234> andrewkk: ifconfig -a
[03:45] <aneviltrend> Anyone know how to set up a raid 1 with an existing drive after adding a second drive?
[03:45] <khin> ...im starting to feel the pain of using dapper, i think, here.
[03:45] <ali1234> andrewkk: otherwise it wont show up until it is configured
[03:45] <slestak> my old edgy install, upgraded to feisty, is working fine.  the original install auto sized / at only 280M, and assigned gigs to the other file systems.  my / is completely filled up, ive cleaned /root down to the bone.  cant seen to find where the 280M is used.
[03:45] <khin> ive tried mplayer, totem and vlc plugins for firefox and they all fail
[03:45] <imbecile> ali1234,  it is unplugged.. i havent edited the file yet because i cant fin it... the man page is 2500 lines long
[03:45] <andrewkk> ali1234: alright thanks.
[03:45] <khin> i cant figure out what is going on
[03:45] <slestak> ive been using du -h --max-depth=1, but with the other 7-8 fs's its getting lost in the fray
[03:45] <nimbo> !madwifi
[03:45] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:46] <jscinoz> Hey guys, im trying to get my SMB shares to mount every boot via /etc/fstab, yet no matter what i do only root has write access, what should i do? my /etc/fstab can be read here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28278/
[03:46] <vip3rousmango> Hizzeh: You need to get Driver Manager from Synaptic Package Installer, and Restricted Drivers Package
[03:46] <imbecile> ali1234,  im trying to setup nmap
[03:46] <KirillZ> Anybody knows how to see open network connections to your Ubuntu computer?
[03:46] <ali1234> imbecile: you shouldnt need to edit the file... the network applet should handle it all for you
[03:46] <slestak> KirillZ: netstat -an
[03:46] <ali1234> imbecile: and nmap doesnt need any setup
[03:46] <MrXorg> Can anyone tell how to replace xorg.conf with a backup?
[03:46] <Hizzeh> What do they do, vip3rous, and does that only apply to my first question?
[03:46] <KirillZ> slestak: thank you
[03:47] <kitche> MrXorg: cp <backup> <file you want to replace>
[03:47] <slestak> KirillZ: netstat has lots of output, may need to look at the man page
[03:47] <imbecile> ali1234,  i dont quite understand what the error means then
[03:47] <lgc> Hi. How can I login to the server? /msg nickserv what?
[03:47] <fujin> I'm trying to mirror two servers, have just finished installing the second one. What tool can I use to provide a list of installed packages to the second server? dpkg something?
[03:47] <palomer> hey guys
[03:47] <MrXorg> Thanks kit
[03:47] <palomer> I have an ssh account
[03:47] <Pelo> lgc,  /nickserv help
[03:47] <ali1234> imbecile: it means you dont have an eth0 anymore because you unplugged it.
[03:47] <lgc> Pelo, thanks.
[03:47] <khin> anyway, im giving up. ill make a note to give it a go on feisty when i get a new box
[03:47] <ali1234> imbecile: your wifi nic will not be called eth0, but maybe wl0 or ath0 or something
[03:48] <vip3rousmango> Hizzeh: No, they apply for #2 and #3
[03:48] <d4rkmonkey_> my wifi is eth1
[03:48] <d4rkmonkey_> :D
[03:48] <vip3rousmango> Hizzeh: er.. sorry, only #3
[03:48] <ali1234> imbecile: yes, or maybe eth1
[03:48] <d4rkmonkey_> :D
[03:48] <nimbo> KirillZ: etherape
[03:48] <Hizzeh> alrighty, vip3rous
[03:48] <Hizzeh> my main concern is getting my wireless adapter working
[03:49] <imbecile> ali1234,  its eth1,  when i do a scan though it tells me hundreds of ports are open
[03:49] <khin> you may find ifconfig eth<num> informative
[03:49] <Hizzeh> I'm using a WUSB54GSC linksys adapter
[03:49] <ali1234> imbecile: and?
[03:49] <khin> for connection information
[03:49] <Hizzeh> so to get that installed, I need ndiswrapper installed, right?
[03:49] <Hizzeh> But I Can't figure out how to install ndiswrapper
[03:49] <KirillZ> nimbo: app? I need to know if anybody is connected on port 26
[03:49] <Pelo> !enter | Hizzeh
[03:49] <ubotu> Hizzeh: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:49] <nimbo> KirillZ: lsof -i :26
[03:49] <nimbo> iirc
[03:49] <imbecile> ali1234,  why would it say all those are open?
[03:49] <Hizzeh> k
[03:49] <Pelo> !wifi | Hizzeh
[03:49] <ubotu> Hizzeh: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:50] <ali1234> imbecile: i dont know. pastebin the output and maybe i can tell you
[03:50] <Pelo> Hizzeh, sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper
[03:50] <ali1234> imbecile: maybe because they are open?
[03:50] <linxeh> is there a viable set of packages for an exchange replacement in the repos ?
[03:50] <KirillZ> nimbo: thanks!
[03:51] <nimbo> :)
[03:51] <nimbo> np
[03:51] <Pelo> linxeh,  exchange ?
[03:51] <Hizzeh> Pelo, when do I type that in terminal? Is that when I have the ndiswrapper-1.47.tar.gz on my desktop?
[03:51] <ali1234> imbecile: or maybe because you have some firewall that pretends to have open ports to fool scanners... who knows
[03:51] <Hizzeh> and what files do I need to download, just the one I listed above? (Sorry about the entering again :( )
[03:51] <linxeh> Pelo: yes, the microsoft email/calendar/contacts/sharedfolder/etc server
[03:51] <imbecile> ali1234, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28282/
[03:51] <Stwange> (sorry if you already replied to this, I got called AFK) how do I set root.root ownership, and is there a way of copying out of synaptic? It keeps coming up with URLs in it's little terminal but there's no right click menu and ctrl+c stops the thread
[03:52] <linxeh> Pelo: it's what powers MS outlook in many enterprises / businesses
[03:52] <Pelo> Hizzeh, you have a tar gz ?  sorry different proceedure ,   first unpack the tar.gz ,  then look for a readme or an install file , read the install file first if you ahve it it often contains instrucitons
[03:52] <Pelo> linxeh,  so your looking for a mail backend ?
[03:52] <Hizzeh> It said something about a source package. I have no idea what it's talking about. Also, what is "Universe" in reference to repositories?
[03:52] <Stwange> !root.root
[03:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about root.root - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:52] <pike__> Stwange: you are wanting to change ownership of what? typically youd do 'sudo chown username:username filename'
[03:53] <Pelo> linxeh,  isnT'  evolution decent enough for you ?
[03:53] <Stwange> I'm trying to download netbeans, and it says the installation I downloaded isn't actually an installation, and I need to download that from the website, and put it in /tmp with root.root ownership, so would that command work?
[03:53] <linxeh> Pelo: evolution is a client no ?
[03:54] <Pelo> Hizzeh, forget the apt-get line I gave you , if you have the ndiswrapper souce code  you will just have to compile it
[03:54] <ali1234> imbecile: you are nmapping your public IP from behind your natted network... results are likely to be unreliable
[03:54] <linxeh> Pelo: and no, not just a mail backend  - something that has calendar support, and the ability to send and recognise meeting requests sent in email, etc
[03:54] <Scunizi> linxeh, kontact may have an exchange component you can use to hook into a system.
[03:54] <vip3rousmango> Hizzeh: when you do sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper: it gets installed automaticaly by the terminal
[03:54] <Hizzeh> Nope, do I need the ndiswrapper source code along with the ndiswrapper-1.47.tar.gz?
[03:54] <linxeh> Scunizi: I want to replace exchange
[03:54] <imbecile> ali1234,  so how could i fix that?
[03:54] <Pelo> linxeh, sorry I got confused a bit ,   do a search in synaptic   for evolution,  see what the dependencies are and the related packages, that might give you a clue
[03:54] <Scunizi> linxeh, ah.. came in late and didn't catch that.
[03:54] <Hizzeh> Vip3rous, can I do that without internet access?
[03:55] <vip3rousmango> Hizzeh: you wont need the .tar.gz that you downloaded
[03:55] <Hizzeh> So I only need the source code?
[03:55] <pike__> Stwange: i guess. that seems a little strange though. itll work for a single file. for a dir youd include the -R for recursive
[03:55] <ali1234> imbecile: there is nothing to fix
[03:55] <vip3rousmango> Hizzeh: oh, no you do need the internet..
[03:55] <linxeh> Pelo: I'm not sure how the evolution client is going to help me replace a MS exchange server
[03:55] <Scunizi> linxeh, how 'bout Zimbra.com... anyone can access that. It's web based
[03:55] <Hizzeh> Crap...can't access the internet untill I figure out how to get Ubuntu to recognize my linksys adapter
[03:55] <DanaG> /usr/share/gconf/schemas/desktop_gnome_* could not be found
[03:55] <imbecile> ali1234,  well how do i get a more reliable scan then?
[03:55] <Pelo> linxeh,  I was giving you a line of inquiry to find out what you need to know
[03:55] <ali1234> imbecile: the warning about eth0 is just a warning. fix it by plugging in your eth0. and the fact that nmap is giving out unreliable results is probably something to do with your router or ISP and there's not much you can do about those
[03:55] <vip3rousmango> Hizzeh, can you not just disable the network temporairly and just directly from modum into ethernet port?
[03:56] <Stwange> pike_: everything I've downloaded so far to do with java has made me do this, well, the java documentation and netbeans - maybe I'm exaggerating. The annoying thing is I can't copy the link out of the terminal I have to rewrite it each time
[03:56] <Scunizi> linxeh, asside from that you could also set up a ldap server
[03:56] <Hizzeh> Vip3rous, can't connect this physically to a router. Too far away
[03:56] <vip3rousmango> Hizzeh: =\ sorry dude, still kinda new to this as well.. im just trying to think of ideas
[03:57] <Pelo> Hizzeh,  you have the tar gz file ?   pastebin the intall file for me so I can have a look and tell you how to install it
[03:57] <Hizzeh> I appreciate it greatly
[03:57] <linxeh> Scunizi: yeah, I can probably do everything manually, but it would be nice to get something that works as well as exchange
[03:57] <imbecile> ali1234,  ahh so i should probably open a port to connect to nmap right? i know i havent done that yet
[03:57] <Hizzeh> pastebin? Sorry, not familiar with that terminology. I can link you to what I downloaded, though...

[03:57] <muszek> hi... english language question  (sorry for posting it here). "people who benefit from" (a project) are called ... ?
[03:57] <ali1234> imbecile: what? sorry what you just said makes no sense
[03:57] <vip3rousmango> !pastebin
[03:57] <Pelo> Hizzeh,  or better yet, give me a link to where you got the file , I'll dl it and have a look myself

[03:57] <fujin> How can I disable ubuntu's spam at SSH login?
[03:57] <Scunizi> linxeh, I've heard of that but don't know anything about it.
[03:57] <fujin> motd file or something somewhere?
[03:57] <DanaG> /etc/motd.tail
[03:58] <ali1234> imbecile: nmap detects open ports but it can be confused by nat and firewalls
[03:58] <DanaG> I believe.
[03:58] <fujin> ah, /etc/motd contains the spam I'm after.
[03:58] <vip3rousmango> lol
[03:58] <ali1234> imbecile: try nmap localhost
[03:58] <DanaG> motd is regenerated at every login.
[03:58] <fujin> by what?
[03:58] <Hizzeh> Alrighty, I'll link you to what I downloaded
[03:58] <LuiCal> please helpme, dont know how to setup my palm lifedrive in gnome pilot
[03:59] <DanaG> Some script, I think.
[03:59] <fujin> DanaG: it appears that nulling out /etc/motd worked
[03:59] <Hizzeh> Pelo: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper-1.47.tar.gz?modtime=1181699252&big_mirror=0
[03:59] <pike__> fujin: grep motd /etc/init.d/* to find the script
[03:59] <Pelo> Hizzeh,  hold on
[03:59] <fujin> I see, thanks
[03:59] <khin> well, it looks like linux is not to blame here with this trailer at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0440963/trailers-screenplay-E32394-10-2 . Vista does the same thing: plays the ad and then cannot play the trailer.
[03:59] <Lenny> can anyone help me with installing Ubuntu on a usb flash stick?
[03:59] <Hizzeh> Ok. I'm on my windows side of the same computer that has Ubuntu installed, because I have internet working on this side.
[04:00] <imbecile> ali1234,  yeah localhost works.. my friend asked me to check if he had backdoor installed still though
[04:00] <vip3rousmango> Lenny: are you freakin kidding me??
[04:00] <LuiCal> please help
[04:00] <defcon> quick question, will apt-get remove beagle remove beagle search, search database files and all beagle stored information or is there another command argument for that
[04:00] <khin> LOL
[04:00] <kitche> nmaping localhost doesn't work very well just so you know
[04:00] <imbecile> ali1234,  on a diff network
[04:00] <Lenny> i dont want the cd version ... i want the full versin on a 4gb flash drive
[04:00] <d4rkmonkey_> anyone have any good suggestions on what to do with the super key in Ubuntu?
[04:00] <Pelo> Hizzeh,  pop in your ubuntu cd and type the following line in the terminal  ,    sudo apt-get update ,   sudo apt-get install build-essential
[04:00] <vip3rousmango> Lenny: how large is the flash disk? and if you want a good portiable linux try Damn Small Linux..
[04:00] <ali1234> imbecile: oh that is someone else's ip you are scanning? well in that case maybe he does still have the backdoor. either that or he runs some crazy firewall
[04:00] <Hizzeh> Pelo, those don't require the internet, right?
[04:01] <Flannel> !install | Lenny
[04:01] <ubotu> Lenny: 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
[04:01] <Flannel> Lenny: That first link has insturctions on installing on a USB drive/stick/etc
[04:01] <fujin> hrm, can't seem to get my 'arrow' keys working while in VIM insert mode, any ideas? I have term=linux
[04:01] <imbecile> kitche,  it showed all  the ports i opened
[04:01] <Pelo> Hizzeh, ok no it shouldn'T but if you are running ubuntu on the same computer you are using to chat here we're gonna have a problem
[04:01] <khin> wait a minute. you can actually install an OS on a flash drive? ive never had one
[04:01] <Hizzeh> yeah
[04:01] <Lenny> thx everone
[04:01] <kitche> imbecile: but localhost doesn't really go though the firewall if he has one setup
[04:01] <scary> Does anyone why my sound drivers are removed from the kernel upon reboot?
[04:01] <Hizzeh> Pelo, would you be able to outline all of the steps I'd need to take? I'm writing all of this down
[04:01] <khin> but... what is the point?
[04:01] <d4rkmonkey_> anyone have any good suggestions on what to do with the super key(windows symbol) in Ubuntu? Its sitting on my laptop all lonely because its like the only unused key
[04:02] <mosno> scary: module black list?
[04:02] <mzuverink> Is there no way to pipe messages to spamassassin in thunderbird?
[04:02] <mosno> scary: unlikely
[04:02] <Pelo> Hizzeh,  meet me in pm
[04:02] <scary> mosno: how do I check
[04:02] <scary> mosno: it's the alsa-drivers
[04:02] <imbecile> kitche,  ant commands to throw at it so it does?
[04:02] <mosno> scary: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist on my system
[04:03] <mosno> but i really wouldnt know
[04:03] <scary> It's worth a try
[04:03] <peepsalot> i have fedora core and ubuntu installed on the same computer.  they both were working fine, then i downloaded a kernel upgrade for ubuntu, and it broke my fedora boot
[04:04] <Flannel> peepsalot: You need to put the fedora entries after the `## end debian automagical kernel list` lines in menu.lst
[04:04] <peepsalot> i guess the problem stems from ubuntu overwriting the whole grub menu
[04:04] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: do you know the name of your snd card module?
[04:04] <scary> dread_pirate_rob:intel-hda
[04:04] <Flannel> peepsalot: right.  Each time you get a new kernel, ubuntu runs update-grub, which overwrites menu.lst with a new one.
[04:04] <peepsalot> Flannel, does it make a backup of the previous?
[04:04] <kitche> imbecile: man nmap but I m not sure myself but you could use netstat to see
[04:05] <peepsalot> i dno't know what the working entries looked like
[04:05] <Lenny> Flannel: The first link tells me how to download and install from the USB but i want it so i can run Ubuntu from the USB as if it was my promary harddrive
[04:05] <rustalot> what company makes wifi cards that work with ubuntu? (i.e. out-of-box)
[04:05] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: if you do lsmod | grep -in intel   does it show up?
[04:05] <scary> dread_pirate_rob:  I install the alsa-drivers and then reboot and the kernel/sound directory disappear
[04:06] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: nope
[04:06] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: how are you installing the module?  modprobe?
[04:06] <Flannel> Lenny: further down: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromUSB
[04:07] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: compiling them
[04:07] <scary> dread_pirate_rob:  I compile them, install them via mod-probe
[04:07] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: try `modrobe intel_hda`
[04:08] <Feint-Dc> hello
[04:08] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: it is not in the modprobe list
[04:09] <MSIGuy> Anyone here have an ipw2200 wireless card?
[04:09] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: are you compiling your kernel from scratch?
[04:09] <logreeval> Hi, Im using Vmware and when i try to open my virtual machine file it says "No permission to open...."
[04:09] <MSIGuy> Or I guess I mean the Intel Pro Wireless card?
[04:09] <Feint-Dc> could anyone help me with Wubi please? I downloaded the alternate iso and put it in the same folder but it doesn't recognise it and goes on to download the iso again..
[04:09] <MSIGuy> Common in alot of notebooks?
[04:09] <euphoria> hi everyone does anyb ody know ow i can get drivers for the4 dialup modem in my toshiba satellite a100 laptop, i believe teh modem is integrated into the soundcard ?
[04:09] <peepsalot> Flannel, do you know how i can recover my old grub entries?
[04:09] <pike__> !winmodem | euphoria
[04:09] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: yes, you can see a summary of my config here  http://pastebin.ca/600745
[04:09] <ubotu> euphoria: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[04:09] <pike__> euphoria: its not much help sorry ;)
[04:09] <MSIGuy> I can't put my card in monitor mode, and I found that I need to install a new driver, but I'm just verifying I need to do so.
[04:10] <euphoria> heh thnx 8-}
[04:10] <euphoria> idk even where to look to find out the hardware info model number thingos
[04:11] <ubuntu22> p
[04:12] <Flannel> peepsalot: do you have a grub.list/grub.conf whatever in /boot/grub?
[04:12] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: are you trying to compile alsa as a module? or just the driver?
[04:12] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: both
[04:12] <pike__> euphoria: lspci -v or sudo lshw is a good starting point. then id do a google search first thing like 'site:ubuntuforums.org modemmodel'
[04:12] <peepsalot> Flannel, yes i have grub.conf
[04:13] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: last time i checked you have to compile alsa into the kernel and make the drivers modules
[04:13] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: I have tried both
[04:13] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: I had the alsa-guys walk me through it
[04:13] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: They could not figure out why it disappeared when I rebooted
[04:13] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: They told me to come here
[04:13] <logreeval> anyone know how to fix the no permission in VMware server?
[04:13] <euphoria> pike__ thanks
[04:14] <dread_pirate_rob> try adding intel_hda to /etc/modules  and do a /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[04:14] <onexused> I dial to the internet using this computer.  How can I use the internet from other computers on my network?
[04:14] <teratoma> how do i make my sound work after hibernation?
[04:15] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: try adding intel_hda to /etc/modules  and do a /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[04:15] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: What is a /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart?
[04:15] <Flannel> peepsalot: grub.conf is what fedora uses by default (it's fedoras menu.lst equivalent), so you'll take the fedora entries out of that, and put them at the very end (after that comment) of your menu.lst
[04:15] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: that should restart alsa services
[04:15] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: The drivers are not loading
[04:15] <peepsalot> agh, 100% disk use on /boot
[04:15] <scary> dread_pirate_rob:  there is no /kernel/sounds
[04:16] <scary> dread_pirate_rob:  I have done that several times
[04:16] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: did you put intel_hda into /etc/modules?
[04:16] <Flannel> peepsalot: How many kernels do you have in there?
[04:16] <scary> dread_pirate_rob:  I tried it, and the alsa guys told me to remove it
[04:16] <scary> dread_pirate_rob:  It didn't work.
[04:17] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: how many snd cards do you have on you system
[04:18] <scary> dread_pirate_rob:  2
[04:19] <mzuverink> What do I need to do to get evolution to use spamassassin?
[04:19] <onexused> I have a connection to the internet on this computer.  How can I use the connection from another computer on the same network?
[04:19] <shavex> scary, if you put acpi=off noacpi in the menu.lst
[04:19] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: are you using them each for specific jobs?
[04:19] <xerophyte> Does anybody know any good open source CRM solution, other than vtiger or sugarCRM ?
[04:20] <magicmactel> anyone a bluez expert?
[04:20] <pike__> onexused: supposedly firestarter makes this pretty easy
[04:20] <pike__> onexused: you want to set it up as a gateway right?
[04:21] <scary> shavex: then?
[04:21] <preaction> xerophyte: WebGUI
[04:21] <slestak> i think my webserver install is screwed.  i have a 250M / on sda1, and a 155G lvm on sda6.  i cannot resize / since the dsik is now full, and / is not in the lvm.
[04:21] <mzuverink> Anyone know why the standard spamassassin plugin in evolution does not seem to work, even though i have spammassassin and bogofilter installed
[04:21] <xerophyte> preaction, yes
[04:21] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: my main card is not supported in linux yet, so I enabled my onboard card
[04:21] <onexused> pike_: yes, I do.
[04:21] <illriginal> anyone know if ventrilo is compatible to linux?
[04:22] <thehound666> fglrx serious help needed. I changed kernels and reinstalled the drivers. Now I can't get 3D to work for the life of me, even on the old kernel
[04:22] <shavex> scary, add it to the first... this is what it should look like
[04:22] <pike__> onexused: id install firestarter.
[04:22] <shavex> scary, title		Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.20-16-generic
[04:22] <shavex> root		(hd0,0)
[04:22] <shavex> kernel		/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-16-generic root=UUID=1d633f9f-883c-4b39-9c97-dc54bdaaf744 ro quiet splash acpi=off noacpi
[04:22] <thehound666> install produces 0 errors
[04:22] <thehound666> done exact way I always do it
[04:22] <NickGarvey> !paste | shavex
[04:22] <ubotu> shavex: 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)
[04:22] <onexused> pike_: I'll look into it
[04:22] <shavex> then when you save it
[04:23] <shavex> scary, you save it then reboot
[04:23] <vladuz976> why does ubuntu use firefox as its default browser but for the mail client stick with evolution? wouldn't it be better to stick to both mozilla or both evolution?
[04:23] <thehound666> I tried every "fix" on the web and I need 3D
[04:23] <thehound666> :(
[04:23] <preaction> vladuz976: evolution is not a web browser?
[04:24] <scary> shavex:  thank you, I will give that a try
[04:24] <onexused> When I use 'apt-get install firestarter', it tells me the package can't be verified.  What's that mean?
[04:24] <vladuz976> preaction: there used to be a browser right?
[04:24] <vladuz976> preaction: in the last release. it wansn't firefox
[04:24] <nwbie> macogw: are you there?
[04:25] <macogw> nwbie: just came back
[04:25] <pike__> onexused: all will be well just hit y
[04:25] <kms375> vladuz976: epiphany
[04:25] <preaction> vladuz976: huh? evolution has been and always will be a replacement for Outlook, nothing else
[04:25] <kms375> not evolution
[04:25] <onexused> pike_: Okay, but what does it mean?
[04:25] <ali1234> vladuz976,preaction: yeah there is a gnome browser - epiphany. but you dont want to use it
[04:25] <vladuz976> kms375: yeah that's what i meant?
[04:25] <vladuz976> ali1234: why?
[04:25] <preaction> ali1234: thanks, don't care
[04:25] <thehound666> noone knows why fglrx always messes up when you get a kernel update and need to recompile it?
[04:25] <cg0def> is there a graphical interface for configuring alsa?
[04:25] <vladuz976> ali1234: that used to be the default browser
[04:26] <macogw> thehound666: because it has to be compiled against your currently running kernel and if it's something you installed separately and had to compile the first time, you'll have to compile it forever
[04:26] <ali1234> vladuz976: try it and see :P
[04:26] <kms375> epiphany doesnt have mail funtions and evolution doesnt have web browsing functions afaik
[04:26] <thehound666> ???
[04:26] <thehound666> I recompiled it
[04:26] <peepsalot> Flannel, i'm not sure, which ones are kernels.  initrd.img...?  System.map...? config-2.6....?  vmlinuz-2.6...?
[04:26] <vladuz976> ali1234: ok, but evolution beats thunderbird?
[04:26] <pike__> onexused: something about public keys. i honestly dont have alot of exp with debian systems
[04:26] <thehound666> but I can't get 3D acceleration back
[04:26] <kms375> thats why you cant use one for both
[04:26] <thehound666> this has made me format before
[04:26] <ali1234> vladuz976: dunno, i use gmail :D
[04:27] <thehound666> but I got too much data now
[04:27] <macogw> thehound666: the fglrx you compiled the first time is only going to work for the kernel you compiled it on.  when there's a kernel update, the one you compiled before won't work.  you have to compile it again for the new kernel
[04:27] <illriginal> Does anyone know if it's possible to get Ventrilo to work?
[04:27] <troythetechguy> I'm running Ubuntu 6.10 and cannot get the 'cpdir' command to work under bash.  Any ideas?
[04:27] <Stwange> what language is ubuntu mostly programmed in?
[04:27] <nwbie> macogw: hello there, I could not save my files because the problem is in my folder /home/owner, the permission for owner is set 1000 instead of my name, do you think I could change back to owner?
[04:27] <thehound666> read above
[04:27] <thehound666> I DID recompile
[04:27] <thehound666> 8 times to be exact
[04:27] <preaction> Stwange: ubuntu is based on GNU software, written mostly in C/C++
[04:27] <NickGarvey> 9 could be the charm
[04:27] <macogw> nwbie: is xp your other partition?
[04:27] <cg0def> Stwange: which part of Ubuntu?
[04:28] <nwbie> macogw: yes
[04:28] <macogw> nwbie: you can yank the files into your xp partition while booted on xp
[04:28] <thehound666> is there any fix to this that's known to work?
[04:28] <Newbean> May i but in?
[04:28] <preaction> troythetechguy: what is "cpdir"? do you mean "cp -R" ?
[04:28] <macogw> nwbie: http://www.fs-driver.org/download.html
[04:28] <Newbean> i have a question myself?
[04:28] <Stwange> thanks :)
[04:28] <nwbie> macogw: ok
[04:28] <macogw> nwbie: thats a driver for windows for ext2.  itll work for ext3 too.  then you can backup into windows
[04:28] <troythetechguy> preaction, Yes.  cp -r works, but the book I'm using says cpdir.
[04:29] <peepsalot> Flannel, i was updating from edgy to feisty, and i got a little tooltip warning from the systray that the partition was full.  but it didn't look like a solid error, and as far as I can tell the upgrade completed successfully
[04:29] <peepsalot> not sure though
[04:29] <thehound666> I tried all 3 fixes in wiki.cchtml.com
[04:29] <Stwange> cg0def: the OS itself, not including the GUI, is that split down further?
[04:29] <thehound666> and tried a few others
[04:29] <peepsalot> it's only 100mb /boot
[04:29] <troythetechguy> preaction, Is cpdir an older version of cp -r, and maybe is not in the version of bash I'm running?
[04:29] <macogw> troythetechguy: possible
[04:29] <nwbie> macowg: all right, I'll try that thanks
[04:30] <jp79> anyone here set up mythtv before?
[04:30] <Newbean> anyone know how to make a rar into a .zar for linux using windows?
[04:30] <cg0def> Stwange: well there is a lot of code in python but that is mostly gui programs. The OS itself is in C
[04:30] <ant-> my /boot is only 100MB
[04:30] <preaction> troythetechguy: there is no cpdir that i'm aware of. it's not a standard system util. cp is not a bash utility, it's a system utility. bash runs other programs to do its work. cpdir is not "in bash" any more than "cp" or "rm" or "mv" are
[04:30] <thehound666> this is hopeless isn't it?
[04:30] <thehound666> I'm going to have to backup 200 gigs
[04:30] <thehound666> and format
[04:30] <macogw> troythetechguy: i just googled it and it looks like cpdir is a script
[04:30] <magicmactel> jp79: i have a myth setup
[04:30] <macogw> troythetechguy: http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/scripts/submittedScripts/cpdir.sh.txt
[04:31] <preaction> Stwange: what do you mean by "the OS"? you have a kernel, you have userspace utils, you have system utils, you have X (the GUI). if you went line-by-line, most would be written in C/C++
[04:31] <peepsalot> i'm not sure which things I can safely delete from /boot
[04:31] <imbecile> i cannot get this to install as per instructions for feisty any suggestions? wget http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/20989/rubygems-0.9.4.tgz /usr/local
[04:31] <troythetechguy> macogw, Thanks.
[04:31] <Stwange> preaction: mostly the kernel I'm interested in, I've done rough courses on what OSs do, but I would like to see how they work
[04:31] <Nutubuntu> troythetechguy:  if you are trying to copy an entire directory structure recursively you might want to look into the 'tar' command
[04:32] <Flannel> peepsalot: well, delete your old kernels (the ones from edgy) and you'll free some space
[04:32] <Newbean> i amign winrar will that work or....
[04:32] <troythetechguy> preaction, Thanks for the the clarification.
[04:32] <Newbean> i am using*
[04:32] <preaction> Stwange: the kernel is written in mostly C, goto www.kernel.org to get the sources for linux
[04:32] <cg0def> Stwange: kernel is written in c and some assembly
[04:32] <thehound666> I would like to know how to fix this. this driver has made me format 10x more than I format windows
[04:32] <thehound666> this is no good
[04:32] <ali1234> Newbean: you can get rar for linux
[04:33] <macogw> imbecile: did you do as the readme says?
[04:33] <ali1234> Newbean: and any other archiver you want
[04:33] <peepsalot> ok down to 44m yay
[04:33] <pike__> thehound666: get mad a switch to freebsd for a month or two. its what i do. then ill come crawling back for some reason or other :)
[04:33] <macogw> thehound666: you shouldnt need to format when X breaks on a kernel update. just recompile the driver.
[04:33] <imbecile> macogw,  i was trying to do an install as it said on a site for feisty
[04:34] <thehound666> I have been doing that
[04:34] <macogw> imbecile: well the readme for that tar says to open a terminal and as root run "ruby setup.rb" so why not just do taht?
[04:34] <thehound666> and no 3D acceleration
[04:34] <thehound666> I put it to load in modules under etc
[04:34] <cg0def> Stwange: most of the linux core is written in C and C++ is only used for programs and then you have KDE which is entirely written in c++
[04:34] <thehound666> hoping that was it
[04:34] <macogw> thehound666: did you have 3d with it on a different kernel?
[04:34] <thehound666> yes and tried it with that one too
[04:34] <thehound666> I can't get it back
[04:34] <thehound666> this has happened more than I like
[04:35] <wadachicken> Hello...I'm having some Burning Troubles
[04:35] <imbecile> macogw,  ruby: No such file or directory -- setup.rb (LoadError)
[04:35] <peepsalot> feisty has nvidia drivers in repos now?
[04:35] <macogw> thehound666: well, its not something youre likely to be able to fix unless you can sneak into ATI headquarters, steal the info on the specs for the driver, learn a lot of C, decompile the driver, and modify it
[04:35] <pike__> wadachicken: ? :-)
[04:35] <thehound666> I don't have nvidia
[04:35] <wadachicken> I downloaded the .iso, and burned the image to the disk. But It's not working...
[04:35] <thehound666> I have ati
[04:35] <Stwange> ok thanks guys
[04:35] <wadachicken> The disk doesent even show any sort of booting when I restart my computer
[04:35] <imbecile> macogw,  i can just install rubygems in synaptic right?
[04:35] <wadachicken> Just goes straight to windows..
[04:36] <Nutubuntu> wadachicken did you checksum the cd? did you set your cd as the first boot device in cmos?
[04:36] <macogw> imbecile: oh, yeah you can, so do that
[04:36] <thehound666> ok I'll rephrase. I want to get 3 D back without formatting
[04:36] <pike__> wadachicken: typically id suggest burning at slowest possible setting just in case. other than that make sure its booting cdrom before hd in bios
[04:36] <thehound666> I have too much data to lose
[04:36] <macogw> imbecile: i thought you were getting the tar because it's not in the repos
[04:36] <wadachicken> In BIOS I changed the first one to boot cd
[04:36] <wadachicken> I used slowest speed and everything
[04:36] <peepsalot> how can i get nvidia drivers installed so that every kernel update does not break x?
[04:37] <pike__> wadachicken: what does it do? just a black screen?
[04:37] <imbecile> macogw,  i think i got it now
[04:37] <wadachicken> I got it working once before, but it only got to startup screen and said said 'Ubuntu Error 20'
[04:37] <Stormx2> wadachicken: Have you booted other CDs on this machine previously?
[04:37] <raddy> Hello Everybody
[04:37] <macogw> peepsalot: if the drivers arent in the repos and linux-restricted-modules, you can't.
[04:37] <thehound666> You don't, but at least nvidia recompiles
[04:37] <raddy> I just now updated my ubuntu
[04:37] <thehound666> my wife has nvidia
[04:37] <wadachicken> pike_, after I had burned the image
[04:37] <macogw> peepsalot: youll have to recompile on each kernel upgrade
[04:37] <wadachicken> I stuck it back in and retstarted
[04:37] <Rob125> Quick question: Best-supported RAM for ubuntu?
[04:37] <raddy> now vista entry in menu.lst is gone
[04:37] <wadachicken> I hear the cd running...then it just goes up to windows, I've got it set to boot cd and everything
[04:38] <wadachicken> in the BIOS
[04:38] <raddy> can anybody help me get it back?
[04:38] <macogw> Rob125: id say thats more a matter of your hardware than the os.  for instance, hp gets evil about "generic" ram
[04:38] <thehound666> you guys have nothing for me to try outside of what I've done?
[04:38] <Stormx2> wadachicken: Did you checksum the iso?
[04:38] <pike__> Rob125: youre better off going to your motherboard manufacturers website and seeing best ram for your mb
[04:38] <thehound666> this format is going to hurt
[04:38] <wadachicken> Not sure how to do that..
[04:38] <Nutubuntu> Rob125 - "supported RAM"? that's a hardware issue, not an os issue. Check compat with your mobo
[04:38] <peepsalot> macogw, i think the drivers are in the repos, i'm just not sure what package i need
[04:38] <Nutubuntu> Oh.
[04:38] <illriginal> brb
[04:39] <macogw> thehound666: recompiling & then b****ing at ATI are all you can do
[04:39] <Rob125> Nutubuntu, pike__, macogw: thanks, but it's not for me. Wanted to verify my comments to the guy (thumbs up)
[04:40] <peepsalot> oh hell, now i don't have X or ethernet
[04:40] <Adam1213>  is there an ubuntu dvd?
[04:40] <Adam1213>  or something like ubuntu on dvd
[04:40] <Adam1213>  or a games ubunutu
[04:40] <Nutubuntu> Rob125 - well if he won't take the word of a bunch of pseudonymous strangers, he's just a plain ol' orn'ery suspicious type
[04:40] <arooni> help!
[04:40] <arooni> when i load terminal.. nothing happens
[04:40] <macogw> Adam1213: there's an ubuntu dvd in the official ubuntu book which has the alternate, server, and desktop cds all combined
[04:40] <Rob125> Nutubuntu: actually, that nails him on the head, so I'm here for him :P
[04:40] <macogw> Adam1213: i think there are also ones on amazon.com that have extra packages
[04:41] <arooni> i can't load terminall... basically it spins for awhile and then goes away (terminal never loads).... i *was* messing around with my xorg config file, but that shoulldn't change anything riht?  firefox still loads
[04:41] <macogw> arooni: nothing happens when you try?
[04:41] <Stwange> preaction: sorry if this sounds dumb, but I can't find the source for the kernels on kernels.org, I'm looking through the ftp but there are so many files with similar names I'm not sure what I'm looking for
[04:41] <arooni> macogw: it shows up in taskbar... and spins up... but i never see the window
[04:41] <OmegaCenti> is there an net install of ubuntu?
[04:41] <macogw> arooni: no, that shouldnt change gnome-terminal. try going to a tty (ctrl alt f1) and installing xterm and see if that can load
[04:41] <macogw> OmegaCenti: yeah
[04:41] <Nutubuntu> OmegaCenti it is called the Minimal CD
[04:41] <Stormx2> !verify > wadachicken
[04:42] <preaction> Stwange: doesn't sound dumb, but i can't help you. i imagine you'll want to use "git" since that's what they use for the source repository (look for FAQ on that page)
[04:42] <OmegaCenti> What If I have no CD's whatsoever...
[04:42] <nwbie> hello there, is there any way to change permissions from 1000 to root?
[04:42] <djkorn_> arooni, go to terminal.... then type firefox
[04:42] <djkorn_> then see what's the error.
[04:42] <pike__> OmegaCenti: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation has a number of options
[04:42] <Nutubuntu> OmegaCenti you'll need a bootable device with about - I *think* - 8MB capacity. Can you boot the computer in question from a USB stick?
[04:43] <macogw> OmegaCenti: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot
[04:43] <OmegaCenti> Nutubuntu: I think so...
[04:43] <Bladey> All hail the mighty Bladey!
[04:43] <Nutubuntu> Night - gotta go for now
[04:43] <peepsalot> anyone know how to install nvidia drivers from repos in feisty?
[04:44] <ubuntu22> hi, anybody knows were's ubuntu's temp dir? (to save a video from youtube)
[04:44] <Bladey> Question, can anyone tell me how to burn Ubuntu to a disc using NERO
[04:44] <pike__> peepsalot: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx; sudo nvidia-xconfig   <-- that is for cards that arent too old and not too new
[04:44] <nimbo> ubuntu22: /tmp ?
[04:44] <imbecile> whats a good beginners sql package to learn on?
[04:44] <bronze> Does anyone know how to shut down a windows PC on my local area network from linux? Preferably no password or login needed
[04:45] <Bladey> Question, can anyone tell me how to burn Ubuntu to a disc using NERO
[04:45] <envi0us> shutdown command?
[04:45] <arooni> how do i launjch the 'run app ' thing
[04:45] <Rob125> imbecile: I learned on mysql+phpmyadmin.
[04:45] <preaction> Bladey: you just do it?
[04:45] <Bladey> How...
[04:45] <Hazarath> I just burned a Data DVD from my desktop, running Feisty, to my lappy, that's running the same, but, can't read it. 'Probably no media on the disk'. Help?
[04:45] <Bladey> I have no knowledge of NERO
[04:45] <macogw> Bladey: pick the one about an image
[04:45] <rich1> is there a wireless irc?
[04:45] <Bladey> K
[04:45] <Bladey> Thanks
[04:45] <pike__> bronze: i dont know if itll work but pstools is a great resource. you might be able to get psshutdown to work with wine
[04:45] <MenZa> rich1: ...a what?
[04:45] <bayu_kr> i can't use command gmake
[04:45] <imbecile> Bladey,  left click and use nero to open it
[04:45] <macogw> Bladey: i dont have nero installed right now becuase of lack of windows, but if it's smart start, it's under "data" and then "burn from image" i think
[04:46] <preaction> bayu_kr: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[04:46] <macogw> imbecile: i think thats right click
[04:46] <peepsalot> pike, i tried but X is still broken
[04:46] <arooni> macogw: do u know how i get the 'run app' screen?>
[04:46] <pike__> bronze: otherwise if youll need to admin win boxes id recommend either qemu or vmware-server
[04:46] <onexused> Some other distros use /sbin/service to start and stop services manually.  How do I do it in Ubuntu?
[04:46] <macogw> arooni: alt + f2
[04:46] <imbecile> macogw,  oops yeah
[04:46] <rich1> MenZa irc for ubuntu wireless.
[04:46] <imbecile> Bladey,  RIGHT click and use nero to open it
[04:46] <onexused> pike_: Thanks for the info about firestarter.  It works for me.
[04:47] <MenZa> rich1: o_O. I don't quiet get what you're saying.
[04:47] <rich1> MenZa: an irc for ubuntu wireless.
[04:47] <pike__> peepsalot: did you use the nvidia.run installer?
[04:47] <peepsalot> pike_, i had previously installed nvidia drivers directly from the driver install file on the nvidia site.
[04:47] <Bladey> k
[04:47] <preaction> rich1: uhm... IRC is IRC. wireless is a way to send TCP/IP over air. what do you want?
[04:47] <bayu_kr> build-essential is already the newest version
[04:47] <preaction> rich1: do you want an IRC Channel for wireless help?
[04:47] <pike__> peepsalot: might do sudo NV*.run --uninstall  first then reinstall nvidia-glx again. i dunno though
[04:47] <preaction> bayu_kr: why not use "make" instead of "gmake"?
[04:47] <Hazarath> Can't read a DVD I burned with ubuntu on my lappy, same OS, help please.
[04:47] <peepsalot> pike_, ok thx i will try taht
[04:48] <Vaske_Car> Is it possible to make windows transparent like in Vista?
[04:48] <preaction> Hazarath: did you verify the DVD was written properly?
[04:48] <preaction> !beryl | Vaske_Car
[04:48] <rich1> preaction: yes.  i didn't want to ask in wrong rm.  i'm sorry for the confusion
[04:48] <bayu_kr> in the README, it use gmake not make
[04:48] <ubotu> Vaske_Car: beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[04:48] <Hazarath> preaction, It said it verified. Lemme check, really don't like running back and forth.
[04:48] <preaction> bayu_kr: gmake is gnu make, which is installed as "make" on ubuntu and other GNU/Linux systems
[04:48] <logreeval> is Vmware Player available as 2.0 on any package?
[04:49] <preaction> Hazarath: most likely the DVD itself is bad
[04:49] <arooni> hey folks i'm having loads of trouble with either twin view or ... xinerama.  i have 7.04, geforce fx 5200, and i can get video out on both my 1280x1024 capable lcds... but i can only get 800x600 max on the second lcd..... (both with twinview and xinerama).... suggestions?
[04:49] <pike__> Vaske_Car: i dont know about gnomes wm but i kde and xfce it is very easily done
[04:49] <shavex> is it possible to record from the speakers using the default recorder in ubuntu
[04:49] <bayu_kr> ok, i will try
[04:49] <pike__> Vaske_Car: might also /join #ubuntu-effects
[04:49] <rich1> is there a channel for ubuntu wireless?
[04:49] <preaction> shavex: sure, plug them into the microphone jack
[04:49] <pike__> rich1: here
[04:50] <Vaske_Car> pike_, installing beryl
[04:50] <onexused> shavex: If you have a cord you can connect the microphone and speaker jacks
[04:50] <shavex> well they are built into the computer
[04:50] <MSIGuy> What bittorrent client should I install that's most like uTorrent (I'm in gnome)
[04:50] <rich1> thanks.  i have to replace my hd and can't remember if bcm 4318 drivers were included in feisty kernel.
[04:50] <arooni> how do i find out out what BUSId my garphics card is on (its in an agp slot)?
[04:50] <PurpZeY> !torrent
[04:50] <ubotu> Torrent clients: Azureus (Java), BitTornado (Shell with python front-end), KTorrent (KDE/Qt), rTorrent (C++) -  Bittorent FAQ: http://www.bittorrent.com/FAQ.html
[04:50] <arooni> like:  PCI:0:0:1 or something
[04:50] <PurpZeY> MSIGuy: ^^
[04:50] <Stormx2> MSIGuy: Azureus is a good one.
[04:51] <macogw> rich1: they are, but the firmware isnt. for that, "sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter"
[04:51] <pike__> MSIGuy: deluge maybe but python isnt exactly c++ :) rtorrent is cli but its fast an reliable though it takes a while to learn
[04:51] <Hazarath> preaction, it verified on my desktop, it pop up, and started reading the files.
[04:51] <onexused> shavex: Maybe there's a way around it.  Why do you want to record from the speakers?
[04:51] <preaction> Hazarath: then i'd start worrying about the lappy's DVD drive
[04:51] <rich1> macogw: and will that get me full speed on wireless?  ie:  not limited to 11mps?
[04:52] <macogw> rich1: it should
[04:52] <macogw> rich1: still now wpa on broadcoms though
[04:52] <Hazarath> preaction, inserting a brand new DVD, Harry Potter 3...
[04:52] <shavex> onexused, uhm its my way of ripping things from a protected format
[04:52] <macogw> rich1: at least with network manager. i havent checked with wifi-radar or wicd + wpa_suppicant
[04:52] <arooni> hey folks i'm having loads of trouble with either twin view or ... xinerama.  i have 7.04, geforce fx 5200, and i can get video out on both my 1280x1024 capable lcds... but i can only get 800x600 max on the second lcd..... (both with twinview and xinerama).... suggestions?
[04:52] <whiteboy_> anyone know if Desktop Effects is possible with ATI 9800 pro
[04:52] <whiteboy_> ?
[04:52] <rich1> macogw: cool.  no need for wpa.  i'm only using wep.
[04:53] <onexused> shavex: oh.  If you're using mp4, for example, have you ever tried HYMN?
[04:53] <whiteboy_> probably one of a thousand asking this... because I see about 30 different answers
[04:53] <Hazarath> preaction, DVD works fine.
[04:53] <onexused> shavex: just a suggestion
[04:53] <rich1> macogw: i've read about problems with net-man on forums.  any thoughts on wicd?
[04:53] <shavex> onexused, ok thanks!
[04:53] <onexused> whiteboy_:desktop effects are possible with my integrated Intel card
[04:54] <peepsalot> pike_, i'm still getting "Failed to load Nvidia kernel module"
[04:54] <peepsalot> :(
[04:54] <macogw> rich1: ive never used it.  NM and WPA works on any drivers that use WEXT.  the ones that dont require something else and wpa_supplicant.  non-wpa will always work on NM though, AFAIK
[04:54] <macogw> whiteboy_: the open source driver should work
[04:54] <whiteboy_> onexused: yeah but Intel != ATI...
[04:54] <Hazarath> preaction, DVD video looks spiffy, and steady, as well.
[04:54] <peepsalot> i guess at worst i can go back to reinstalling the drivers after every kernel update
[04:54] <whiteboy_> open src driver is not the flgrx one correct?
[04:54] <macogw> whiteboy_: http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_feisty_beryl_ati_radeon
[04:54] <macogw> whiteboy_: right
[04:55] <peepsalot> i just don't get why i can't use the repos
[04:55] <rich1> macogw: ok.  what about connecting to open networks?  are there still probs there in feisty?
[04:55] <macogw> rich1: no. unencrypted and wep  should always work
[04:55] <macogw> rich1:  the problems are just with wpa
[04:55] <Hazarath> preaction, help?
[04:55] <macogw> rich1: i have that card in this computer and until the neighbors' wireless got password-protected, i could connect
[04:56] <pike__> macogw: wep?
[04:57] <macogw> peepsalot: what driver do you use?
[04:57] <pike__> macogw: nm wasnt following conversation
[04:57] <rich1> macogw:  cool.  wish me luck with the new hd.  thxxxx for the help.
[04:57] <onexused> pike_: Wireless Equivilency Privileges I think
[04:57] <onexused> pike_: if that's what you wanted to know
[04:57] <macogw> pike__: the neighbor's encryption? yeah it's wep.  i'm the one that set it.  then i realized that was dumb because now i cant use it with my laptop.  the id10ts still havent figured out it's unusable in the current state
[04:57] <rich1> pike__: i thought it was policy.
[04:58] <Hazarath> Need DVD help, please.
[04:58] <arooni> hey folks i'm having loads of trouble with either twin view or ... xinerama.  i have 7.04, geforce fx 5200, and i can get video out on both my 1280x1024 capable lcds... but i can only get 800x600 max on the second lcd..... (both with twinview and xinerama).... suggestions?
[04:58] <macogw> i thought it was Wired
[04:58] <onexused> pike_: or maybe Wired Equivilent Privacy or something
[04:58] <peepsalot> macogw, just whatever the latest nvidia driver is
[04:58] <Stormx2> !install > wadachicken
[04:58] <sethglickman> hey, can someone help me get my graphics card set up?
[04:58] <macogw> onexused: yeah what you said
[04:58] <rich1> macogw:i thought it was WEIRD.
[04:58] <sethglickman> it's an intel integrated one
[04:58] <macogw> peepsalot: is it nvidia-glx or nvidia-glx-new or nvidia-glx-legacy?
[04:58] <sethglickman> i just bought a vista pc from dell
[04:58] <pete_> Hazarath, do other DVDs work on your computer?
[04:59] <macogw> peepsalot: or is it something else?
[04:59] <sethglickman> and i'm having trouble with the graphics card
[04:59] <Hazarath> pete_, Yes, this is a data DVD, however, Harry Potter 3, I just bought today, works fine.
[04:59] <onexused> rich1: W.E.I.R.D. == WE Is Really Dumb? :P
[04:59] <Hazarath> pete_, the data DVD works fine on my desktop, running Feisty.
[04:59] <pete_> Hazarath, then obviously the problem is with the DVD you burnt
[04:59] <peepsalot> macogw, well, previously i was using the install file from the nvidia site, and just now i was trying to use nvidia-glx.  it looks like i also have nvidia-common installed
[04:59] <sethglickman> can someone help me?
[04:59] <sethglickman> with the graphics card?
[04:59] <macogw> peepsalot: what card is it?
[05:00] <Hazarath> pete_, It works on my desktop...
[05:00] <pete_> Hazarath, sorry, the data DVD works on feisty? then what is the problem?
[05:00] <macogw> sethglickman: naming the card would help
[05:00] <sethglickman> umm, intel graphics media accelerator x3000
[05:00] <sethglickman> i believe
[05:00] <raddy> Hello Everybody
[05:00] <peepsalot> macogw, not sure exactly, it's a laptop, couple years old.
[05:00] <Hazarath> pete_, this lappy, that runs the same, won't read it.
[05:00] <raddy> One small doubt
[05:00] <macogw> sethglickman:  should work perfectly
[05:00] <sethglickman> how do i get it to?
[05:00] <macogw> peepsalot: do "lspci" and see what it is
[05:00] <pete_> Hazarath, does the Laptop play the harry potter DVD?
[05:00] <sethglickman> i'm really a complete newbie
[05:00] <scary> what package contains the alsa drivers?
[05:00] <macogw> sethglickman: you shouldnt need to do anything
[05:00] <sethglickman> ideally, i'd have beryl running
[05:00] <sethglickman> but
[05:01] <sethglickman> i can't seem to get it to work
[05:01] <Hazarath> pete_, perfectly, yes. No lag, notta.
[05:01] <sethglickman> well, it's showing up
[05:01] <sethglickman> i have a 22-inch widescreen monitor
[05:01] <sethglickman> but the resolution is wrong, and i can't get it any higher
[05:01] <raddy> when i install some packages via web browser, i get a message saying the same package is available in software channel
[05:01] <sethglickman> and desktop effects won't work, let alone beryl
[05:01] <pete_> Hazarath, so the Harry Potter DVD works on both, but the Data only works on the desktop, but not the laptop?
[05:01] <peepsalot> macogw, NVIDIA Quadro FX Go700 rev a1
[05:01] <stinger_au> yo
[05:01] <macogw> sethglickman: intel graphics should work immediately and nearly perfectly (with the exception of not allowing a res > 1024x768 until you install 915resolution)
[05:01] <Hazarath> pete_, yes.
[05:01] <raddy> but when i search for that package in Add/Remove, i can't find that
[05:02] <raddy> what is the reason?
[05:02] <macogw> sethglickman: ah ok if you mean res, then install 915resolution
[05:02] <sethglickman> macogw: does that working perfectly include beryl/compiz/desktop effects, and how do i install it
[05:02] <pete_> Hazarath, what happens when you put the data disc in the laptop?
[05:02] <macogw> sethglickman: yes, its why i only  use intel graphics
[05:02] <macogw> sethglickman: "sudo apt-get install 915resolution"
[05:02] <stinger_au> I just updated to 2.6.20-16-generic and now for some reason kaffeine no longer show any DVB options: all my DVB drivers and modules are loaded and kaffeine -verbose gives no error about the card - Just seems like the DVB option all together is gone ? any ideas why
[05:02] <sethglickman> ok, i just ran that
[05:02] <vulcansz> Hey everyone. )
[05:02] <peepsalot> macogw, i never use the "legacy" drivers, just the regular ones from nvidia always worked fine.  it's just annoying to reinstall after every update
[05:03] <macogw> peepsalot: legacy wont work.  your card's newer.
[05:03] <macogw> peepsalot: nvidia-glx-new *should* work
[05:03] <Hazarath> pete_, spools up, seems to read it, then sooner or later spools down. I double click the icon, it says 'Cannot mount the volume: There is probably no media in the drive'.
[05:03] <sethglickman> when i go to Enable Desktop Effects, it says "Desktop effects could not be enabled"
[05:03] <sethglickman> but now the resolution's right
[05:03] <arooni> can someone help me getting dual desktop workin?  ive tried for 5 hours
[05:03] <macogw> sethglickman: ok lemme look up what youre supposed to do after installing 915resolution to get it to go..oh it did it automagically?
[05:03] <sethglickman> yeah
[05:04] <sethglickman> thank you very much
[05:04] <sethglickman> is there an easy way to install beryl/compiz?
[05:04] <macogw> sethglickman: on one of my comps it was automagic and on another it took hand config
[05:04] <sethglickman> hmmm
[05:04] <sethglickman> i see
[05:04] <adante> howdy
[05:04] <macogw> sethglickman: for beryl just "sudo aptitude install beryl emerald-themes"
[05:04] <logreeval> i am having some trouble installing VMwareplay
[05:04] <logreeval> er
[05:04] <adante> what would be the most straightforward way of getting emacs installed?
[05:04] <macogw> sethglickman: no the config i meant was for 915resolution
[05:04] <macogw> sethglickman: my typing was getting behind :p
[05:05] <adante> as it doesn't appear to be in add/remove or the synaptic thing
[05:05] <sethglickman> oh
[05:05] <osxdude|palmTX> There is compiz  on my comp. How do I access it?
[05:05] <sethglickman> well, the desktop effects should work
[05:05] <sethglickman> right?
[05:05] <VulcanSZ> Would anyone mind helping me with a problem with my Beryl settings?
[05:05] <macogw> sethglickman: yes
[05:05] <sethglickman> i mean, without setting anything else up
[05:05] <sethglickman> they don't
[05:05] <sethglickman> and i have no idea why
[05:05] <macogw> osxdude|palmTX: system > pref > desktop effects
[05:05] <adante> and for that matter how can i install gvim? when i click on it in add/remove it says "GVIM Text editor cannot be installed on your computer type (i386) which is.. a shame?!
[05:05] <pete_> Hazarath, has the laptop read any other burnt data dvds?
[05:05] <Wikkedfin^> When i enable desktop effects the minimize/ buttons are gone
[05:05] <Hazarath> pete_, Ya, had to back up my system data a few times.
[05:06] <macogw> sethglickman: open a terminal and type: glxinfo | grep direct
[05:06] <osxdude|palmTX> macogw, rly?
[05:06] <sethglickman> a lot of lines that say "Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[05:06] <macogw> osxdude|palmTX: yes but for actually configuring it to do nice things instead of being boring, you should install gnome-compiz-manager
[05:06] <sethglickman> and then Error: couldn't find RGP GLX visual
[05:06] <sethglickman> and then more lines from above
[05:06] <peepsalot> its amazing they still haven't changed the system bell to default to a sound card yet.  pc speaker is @#$%$%^& annoying
[05:06] <macogw> sethglickman: did you include the | grep direct ?
[05:06] <sethglickman> yes
[05:07] <macogw> sethglickman: and multiple lines came out?  weird.  it should just tell you if direct rendering is enabled
[05:07] <sethglickman> yeah, multiple lines came out
[05:07] <macogw> sethglickman: can you do "sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[05:07] <sethglickman> sure
[05:07] <macogw> sethglickman: leave off the quotes
[05:07] <sethglickman> ok, it's open
[05:08] <sethglickman> should i edit something in Module?
[05:08] <sethglickman> or copy/paste what i have?
[05:08] <sethglickman> i'm actually on a different computer right now
[05:08] <sethglickman> but i can re-type it
[05:08] <Hazarath> pete_, any clue at all?
[05:08] <peepsalot> macogw, nvidia-glx-new does not seem to work either
[05:09] <pete_> Hazarath, it sounds tough. But what device is it called?
[05:09] <adante> hi, what is the standard way for installing packages in ubuntu? the faq is telling me synaptic is the advanced method, but i can't seem to find emacs in it?
[05:09] <ponch_> ? on proftp command <limit>if someone can help out?
[05:09] <adante> or, how would one go about installing emacs
[05:09] <macogw> sethglickman: does it say "dri" anywhere?
[05:09] <sethglickman> yes
[05:09] <sethglickman> Load "dri"
[05:09] <bayu_kr> ok it's done...  gmake = make
[05:09] <sethglickman> bitmap, ddc, dri, extmod, freetype, glx, int10, and vbe
[05:09] <sethglickman> all under Section "Module"
[05:09] <macogw> sethglickman: ok that all looks right
[05:09] <osxdude|palmTX> !flood
[05:09] <Nutubuntu> adante,  I believe emacs is part of the Ubuntu suite of apps by default
[05:09] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[05:10] <Hazarath> pete_, 'CDRW/DVD SBW 241'
[05:10] <mister_roboto> hey, what happened to freenode with the klines for the past few days?
[05:10] <macogw> sethglickman: can you pastebin your xorg.conf?
[05:10] <Nutubuntu> adante,  if not, sudo apt-get install emacs ought to get you the basic app
[05:10] <sethglickman> the whole thing?
[05:10] <windio00> are there any channels for building a home linux file server?
[05:10] <chrisjs169> I can't seem to play DVDs on Kubuntu - I get the following (Includes error from kaffeine, as well as from /var/log/messages): http://pastebin.ca/600473
[05:10] <sethglickman> what do i type?
[05:10] <chrisjs169> libdvdcss2 is installed
[05:10] <macogw> sethglickman: and pastebin the output from glxinfo
[05:10] <mister_roboto> does anyone know? i couldn't find news online
[05:11] <pete_> Hazarath, I meant like /dev/cdrom
[05:11] <macogw> sethglickman: go to  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[05:11] <Yahooadam> how do you find sambas status (eg /etc/init.d/samba status - except that doesnt work)
[05:11] <Stwange> all I partitioned for ubuntu was one linux ext2 (or 3?) partition for the root, and one swap - but all the reviews of distros I'm reading show like 6 partitions, should I have had more?
[05:11] <osxdude|palmTX> chrisjs169: go to #kubuntu
[05:11] <adante> Nutubuntu: hmm ok, how do i run it?
[05:11] <Hazarath> pete_, /dev/scd0
[05:11] <macogw> Stwange: no that's fine.  when there's more its usually for servers
[05:11] <pete_> Hazarath, what happens if you type "mount /dev/scd0" at a terminal?
[05:11] <Nutubuntu> Stwange,  I'd recommend a separate partition for /home
[05:11] <windio00> i was wondering if i needed to get at least one PATA hard drive if SATA-300 wasnt well supported yet
[05:12] <iphv37> how do i install the newest codecs for feisty fawn?
[05:12] <Nutubuntu> adante, that *was* how you run it ;P
[05:12] <stinger_au> So any one able to help me with kaffeine no showing DVB options after updating to newer kernel ?
[05:12] <Stwange> Nutubuntu: to restrict user space?
[05:12] <adante> Nutubuntu: sorry, *what* was how i run it? :s
[05:12] <mister_roboto> Stwange: a separate partition for home is nice if you have to reinstall so you don't lose all your personal settings and whatever else you stick in /home
[05:12] <Nutubuntu> Stwange,  no, so that if/when you reinstall, you don't wipe out the data in /home
[05:12] <macogw> Stwange: because /var can grow with error logs so to avoid root filling up, that's put separate on servers.  /home is separate so that if you reinstall your stuff's still there.  /usr can be separate on servers sometimes too to save the installed programs (ditto on /opt)
[05:12] <Stwange> ah ok that makes sense
[05:13] <Hazarath> pete_, hazarath@hazarath-laptop:~$ sudo mount /dev/scd0
[05:13] <Hazarath> Password:
[05:13] <Hazarath> mount: No medium found
[05:13] <quio> Hello
[05:13] <adante> Nutubuntu: ok, so apt-cache search emacs gives me one package: dictionaries-common
[05:13] <gneale> #!#!#############################!#!##!#!#!#!##!##!#!#!#!#!#!#!#!#!#!#!#!#
[05:13] <iphv37> how do i install the newest codecs for feisty fawn?
[05:13] <macogw> iphv37: add medibuntu repos
[05:13] <macogw> iphv37: then if you try to play an mp3 itll prompt  you

[05:13] <sethglickma1> macogw: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28284/ is both of them
[05:13] <adante> Nutubuntu: i'm not very familiar with ubuntu or apt, is there something else i should be doing to get emacs?
[05:13] <sethglickma1> the grep direct is first
[05:13] <macogw> sethglickma1: ok ill have a look
[05:13] <adante> Nutubuntu: or is there a guide to installing emacs perhaps \o/
[05:13] <Hazarath> osxdude|palmTX, it wassn't 20 lines.
[05:13] <sethglickma1> thank you
[05:13] <Stwange> doesn't having all these extra partitions slow data transfer down though? or is that just a windows thing
 I use VLC and have yet to need to install any codecs.
[05:14] <peepsalot> what is the nvidia-common package for?
[05:14] <Nutubuntu> adante,  'sudo apt-get install emacs' in a terminal will get you emacs. If you're more comfortable in a graphical interface, start Synaptics. It will ask you for your password. Once it's open, search for emacs.
[05:14] <peepsalot> nvidia-kernel-common i mean
[05:14] <osxdude|palmTX> Hazarath: Itwas more than one line.
[05:14] <scary> Does anyone have any idea why my alsa module in /lib/modules/ is removed when I boot?
[05:14] <Newbean> any sugguestions on a good interface for rars for unbuntu
[05:14] <adante> Nutubuntu: searching for emacs in synaptics gives me the same result (one package: dictionaries-common)
[05:15] <adante> Nutubuntu: apt-get install emacs gives me E: Couldn't find package emacs"
[05:15] <quio> Does anyone know any interior design programs for Ubuntu?
[05:15] <iphv37> macogw: yeah.. i'd already done it! put i can't see in fullscreen mode!!
[05:15] <macogw> iphv37: doesnt sound like a codec thing
[05:15] <iphv37> quio, was that a question?
[05:15] <iphv37> yeah, i know..
[05:15] <osxdude|palmTX> it was
[05:15] <Hazarath> pete_, got that?
[05:16] <scary> does anyone know how modules can be removed upon boot?
[05:16] <pete_> Hazarath, yeah, I'm just thinking about it
[05:16] <Nutubuntu> adante, I think you may need to add and/or update your repository source lists. A search for 'emacs' in Synaptic (for me) just returned 339 packages, so there's a slight discrepancy ;)
[05:16] <macogw> sethglickma1: can you do for a full glxinfo instead of just the grep direct bit?
[05:16] <Hazarath> pete_, okes, thanks for your time.
[05:16] <sethglickma1> umm sure
[05:16] <iphv37> macogw: but anyway i thought in try to install the newest codecs from a better source.. or whatever!
[05:16] <sethglickma1> what should i type?
[05:16] <quio> Yes.  I am trying to design a house and wondered if there was anything like Architect for Linux.
[05:17] <Stwange> if you have a separate partition for /home/, can you use this on a dual boot to run different distros with the same user groups and files, or would there be conflicts?
[05:17] <Hazarath> quio, try package manager?
[05:17] <quio> I don't need to build the foundation just pick colors.

 I found only interface design programs.
[05:19] <ponch_> what is this command RNRF
[05:19] <pete_> Hazarath, if I understand the situation correctly, you have burnt DVDs with the desktop feisty before, and you have read DVDs with the laptop feisty before. Have you tried before now to read with laptop feisty a dvd burnt with desktop feisty?
[05:20] <Hazarath> pete_, No.
[05:20] <scary> mister_roboto: I dont think the card is in the blacklist
[05:20] <pete_> Hazarath, ah, so it is the combination which produces the poisonous reult?
[05:21] <peepsalot> help my X is broken!
[05:21] <Hazarath> pete_, only Windows Achol 120% from M$... and, seems so.
[05:21] <mister_roboto> scary: no, i mean PUT IT THERE if you don't want it to load. wasn't that what you asked?
[05:21] <osxdude|palmTX> peeps hwat is wrong?

[05:23] <osxdude|palmTX> peepsalot: no. I can't spell the word.
[05:23] <CVD> its there away to make gnome always remember the alias i created after exit the terminal?
[05:23] <shawn34> kurtti, can I use the sound recorder?
[05:23] <peepsalot> osxdude|palmTX, is that the OSS driver?  searching the repos doesn't show it
[05:23] <pete_> Hazarath, To be honest, I myself have stopped burning DVDs in linux... the last time I tried, it fried my DVD drive (luckily under warranty). So I hate to say it, but my gut tells me to try the burning in windows

[05:29] <pete_> Hazarath, ok. Using the burning programs Brasero or Gnomebaker or K3b might yield slightly different results, too
[05:30] <Lunar_Lamp> mytoaster, wow, ok, well, seeing as you're probably unfamiliar with CLI text editing, it's probably the easiest - is it posible for you to install it? "sudo aptitude install nano"?
[05:30] <Nutubuntu> y/w mytoaster - just call me mister speedy (I don't know much so it's easy to retrieve it)
[05:30] <macogw> Hizzeh: i dont think you can use wine on 64bit. flash only if you install a separate browser as 32bit and install it on there.   w32codecs (like wma wmv) are 32bit only too i think.
[05:30] <Hazarath> pete_, I'm exuasted, and wanting to watch SG1, I don't wanna burn all my limited supplies of DVD-Rs. lol
[05:30] <pete_> Hazarath, they are all in the repositories
[05:30] <ceil420> nano is standard (with Xubuntu, at least) :o
[05:30] <pete_> Hazarath, lol fair enough
[05:31] <macogw> ceil420: yeah. i thought it was auto-installed on all *buntus
[05:31] <Jester45> macogw, there is w64codecs now
[05:31] <Hazarath> pete_, I know where they are, that's where I burned my... ISO of... a certan company's software. *whistles*
[05:31] <ceil420> lol Hazarath
[05:31] <mytoaster> well nothing of the system has installed at all i was loading the 64 bit ubuntu and i got a long ass list of errors.. and after the erros finished im basicly at a command prompt typ thing
[05:31] <macogw> jester45: good to know
[05:31] <Hizzeh> Should I just uninstall ubuntu 64 and install ubuntu 32?
[05:31] <mytoaster> that says initramf(s)
[05:31] <pete_> Hazarath, of course you are referring to the iso for the development version of ubuntu gutsy gibbon
[05:31] <Hazarath> Anywho, lemme go, that gate's callin' me.
[05:32] <Hazarath> pete_, not likely. >.>
[05:32] <ceil420> does anybody know where the default cursor set is, so i can at least look in that folder? /usr/share/icons/default doesn't seem to be it :x
[05:32] <macogw> mytoaster: oh.  initramfs...is that the busybox and dash thing?
[05:32] <luis> is it true that I can F up my PC if something goes wrong with beryl?
[05:32] <macogw> mytoaster: youre in a rather unusable state
[05:32] <mytoaster> ya i figured
[05:32] <Bored1ed> Is Beryl worth installing? I havent used it yet?
[05:32] <macogw> luis: you can just uninstall beryl
[05:32] <cwill2> where can I find an up to date vmware-player-kernel-source package?
[05:32] <luis> ok
[05:32] <Gigs> ls
[05:32] <luis> danke
[05:32] <osxdude|palmTX> luis: no
[05:32] <macogw> luis: worst thatll happen is youll be stuck at black screen + white text for a bit
[05:32] <pete_> macogw: try pluggin it in and putting bread inside
[05:32] <cwill2> the one in the repository is for an old kernel, not the same as the latest binary package
[05:32] <Nutubuntu> oh! mytoaster, that's a different story - that's the busybox, yes, macogw - mytoaster I'd reinstall from the get-go; it's not that long a process (well, after four or five runs at it, maybe it was, come to think of it)
[05:33] <mytoaster> thats the thing i cant install anything
[05:33] <macogw> luis: if you get into that state, itll be important to have irssi installed so that you can get here and get help
[05:33] <sethglickman> macogw: i just finished running all of the code on that page
[05:33] <mytoaster> it goes straight to the error messages
[05:33] <macogw> luis: irssi is a terminal irc client
[05:33] <sethglickman> didn't work
[05:33] <sethglickman> and now my resolution's broken again
[05:33] <macogw> sethglickman: bleh ok...
[05:33] <sethglickman> well, "broken"
[05:33] <mrunagi> is anyone here  running an osx like dock?
[05:34] <macogw> sethglickman: youll have to re-run 915resolution since you just reinstalled the intel drivers
[05:34] <Nutubuntu> mytoaster, when nothing worked at all for me I checked the CD, the CD drive, the IDE cable ... I had a bad CD drive, as it turned out
[05:34] <peepsalot> why do these curses interfaces always look so screwed up?  the characters for window borders are all wacky looking
[05:34] <sethglickman> i think i installed xserver-xorg-video-intel
[05:34] <sethglickman> is that worse than 915resolution?
[05:34] <peepsalot> osxdude|palmTX, ok envy did the trick, thanks
[05:34] <osxdude|palmTX> peepsalot: somethin changed ur them man.
[05:35] <mytoaster> hmm.. ill have to see what i can do nutubuntu.. i dotn have my floppy drive pluged in at all.. and one of my cd drive may be messed up.. ill try what i can and get bakc to you
[05:35] <envi0us> hey
[05:35] <cwill2> !vmware
[05:35] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[05:35] <envi0us> i have symbol wireless card, how can I check for wireless drivers?
[05:35] <scary> anyone know what the error  snd_hda_intel: Unknown symbol means?
[05:35] <cwill2> anybody know where I can get the source package to a later version of the vmware-player-kernel-source?
[05:35] <sethglickman> macogw: i installed both xserver-xorg-video-intel and 915resolution
[05:35] <Nutubuntu> macogw,  what was the url for the no-cd net based install you mentioned earlier ?  mytoaster - that would be a possible workaround
[05:35] <macogw> sethglickman: 915resolution is a patch for intel drivers to get high-res
[05:36] <sethglickman> ok, it said that i already had the latest 915resolution
[05:36] <macogw> Nutubuntu: that wasnt no-cd
[05:36] <macogw> sethglickman: yeah its installed but its not setup now
[05:36] <Nutubuntu> oh, oops
[05:36] <osxdude|palmTX> im gonna try to run windoze in VMWare...
[05:36] <sethglickman> how do i set it up?
[05:36] <chalcedony> hi
[05:36] <feliciano> Hi... I'm thinking to try a new file system for my home ubuntu... I read XFS is a good alternative... can you give me a advice??
[05:36] <macogw> sethglickman: you have to run it to get the resolution.  it's terminal-based (i'm considering an attempt at making a gui if i can figure out HOW)
[05:36] <sethglickman> macogw: the resolution is fixed
[05:36] <jerbull88> how do you change the destination foler for downloads?
[05:36] <chalcedony> how do i do a trace ? i want to know the hops to an ip?
[05:36] <sethglickman> i hit ctrl+alt+backspace, and log in again
[05:37] <macogw> sethglickman: oh well that works
[05:37] <chalcedony> i tried tracert traceroute and trace .. all no
[05:37] <sethglickman> macogw: well, right now beryl isn't working at all
[05:37] <macogw> sethglickman: there are more resolutions than what its giving you available most likely
[05:37] <sethglickman> and neither are desktop effects
[05:37] <Durf> Newbie question where do I get a copy... its not in the FAQ
[05:37] <macogw> sethglickman: right because glx isnt working
[05:37] <sethglickman> i'm on the highest one the monitor will support, i think
[05:37] <peepsalot> osxdude|palmTX, do you know if the driver installed with this method will break every time the kernel is updated?
[05:37] <macogw> sethglickman: we have to get glx going
[05:37] <osxdude|palmTX> chalcedony: unse system > admin > net toolz
[05:37] <Nutubuntu> Durf,  a copy of ?
[05:37] <sethglickman> macogw: any ideas?
[05:37] <osxdude|palmTX> gtg
[05:37] <envi0us> i have symbol wireless card, how can I check for wireless drivers?
[05:37] <adante> hi
[05:38] <Durf> ubuntu linux
[05:38] <jerbull88> how do you change the destination folder for downloads?
[05:38] <Nutubuntu> Durf,  http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[05:38] <adante> in the terminal after you press alt-f to bring up the file menu, is there an alt-stroke to make the menu go away? or is there a way to make it so if you rpses alt hte menu goes away?\
[05:38] <macogw> sethglickman: try "sudo apt-get remove --purge xserver-xorg-video-i810" then "sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-i810"
[05:38] <feliciano> Hi... I'm thinking to try a new file system for my home ubuntu... I read XFS is a good alternative... can you give me a advice??
[05:38] <sethglickman> macogw: i don't think i have the i810
[05:38] <macogw> sethglickman: what you did before was xorg-driver-i810, this one's video not driver...try that
[05:38] <sethglickman> i think i have the -intel one
[05:38] <chalcedony> osxdude|palmTX what? how? i am at a bash prompt
[05:38] <sethglickman> yeah
[05:38] <sethglickman> that too
[05:39] <macogw> sethglickman: its a generic driver
[05:39] <sethglickman> macogw: -driver- didn't work, only video did
[05:39] <envi0us> i have symbol wireless card, how can I check for wireless drivers?
[05:39] <macogw> sethglickman: i810 is the driver for 8xx and 9xx
[05:39] <macogw> sethglickman: oh ok
[05:39] <jscinoz__> Hey guys, im trying to get my SMB shares to mount every boot via /etc/fstab, yet no matter what i do only root has write access, what should i do? my /etc/fstab can be read here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28278/
[05:39] <din> hi
[05:40] <sethglickman> macogw: i just did the purge of xserver-xorg-video-intel, and installed -i810
[05:40] <xenex> Does anyone know why VLC player has scanlines?
[05:40] <mrunagi> !kiba-dock
[05:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kiba-dock - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:40] <mrunagi> !kiba
[05:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kiba - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:40] <mrunagi> =(
[05:40] <macogw> sethglickman: reboot and see what happens
[05:40] <ceil420> !xcursorgen
[05:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xcursorgen - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:40] <sethglickman> Failed to start the X server.
[05:40] <sethglickman> Would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the problem?
[05:41] <Durf> 700MB? Will this boot or emulate?
[05:41] <macogw> sethglickman: just go back to the other driver then
[05:41] <Xyc0> Is there a tutorial to get mesa3d drivers to perform direct rendering?
[05:41] <macogw> sethglickman: no wait
[05:41] <macogw> sethglickman: do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[05:41] <sethglickman> ok
[05:41] <macogw> sethglickman: changing drivers requires having it update your xorg.conf which is what that little program does
[05:42] <jscinoz> Hey guys, im trying to get my SMB shares to mount every boot via /etc/fstab, yet no matter what i do only root has write access, what should i do? my /etc/fstab can be read here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28278/
[05:42] <Gigs> jscinoz: uid=
[05:42] <Gigs> I need the IFB module but it appears ubuntu doesn't compile that.  Is there an easier way than doing all the git stuff and recompiling it completely?
[05:42] <macogw> mrunagi: kiba's really unstable...not even alpha yet, just warning ya
[05:42] <jscinoz> gigs, i need multiple user rw not just one so i need to use GID instead but it wont work for some reason
[05:42] <aarcane> Hi, I'm looking to buy a wifi card for my wife's Ubuntu laptop, and want to know what the best Wifi card I could buy at a local store for under $40 is that works with Linux
[05:42] <Gigs> jscinoz: try numeric
[05:43] <arbeck23> i'm having trouble mounting a drive via fstab
[05:43] <sethglickman> macogw: attempt to autodetect video hardware?
[05:43] <aarcane> more specifically, that has native Linux drivers/
[05:43] <jscinoz> alright i'll get back to you if it works
[05:43] <macogw> sethglickman: yeah sure
[05:43] <arbeck23> it doesn't mount on boot, but if i unmount and then mount -a it works fine
[05:43] <sethglickman> and i want the i810 driver?
[05:43] <macogw> aarcane: you want intel 3945
[05:43] <macogw> sethglickman: yeah
[05:43] <sethglickman> even though it's the X3000
[05:43] <sethglickman> intel graphics media accelerator
[05:43] <sethglickman> same deal?
[05:43] <aarcane> macogw, okay, so what's a good PCMCIA card that uses intel 3945 ?
[05:43] <cafuego> none
[05:44] <macogw> aarcane: o pcmcia? you dont have a mini-pci inside the laptop?
[05:44] <macogw> sethglickman: itd not x3000
[05:44] <cafuego> cardbus if anything, and even that is pretty unlikely.
[05:44] <scary>  I am just wondering if anyone knows why I would get " snd_hda_intel: Unknown symbol" when I install alsa drivers
[05:44] <Nutubuntu> aarcane,  you might check www.linux-wlan.org for list of compatible hardware
[05:44] <aarcane> macogw, nope.  it's a thinkpad t20 with the only internal mini-pci card slot used for wired
[05:44] <sethglickman> macogw: which modules should be loaded by default?
[05:44] <macogw> aarcane: is there some other wireless built in right now?
[05:44] <sethglickman> should i have dbe, record, or v41?
[05:45] <macogw> sethglickman: dbe and v4l, yes
[05:45] <macogw> sethglickman: idk about record. i dont have it...
[05:45] <Sonicadvance1> It seems that whatever I do, I ALWAYS get Grub errors 15,17, or 22
[05:45] <macogw> aarcane: ok thats a problem.  i can tell you what usb to get
[05:45] <macogw> aarcane: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833156152 would work from usb
[05:45] <aarcane> macogw, only 1 USB port >,.,<
[05:45] <jscinoz> Gigs, changed to numeric, remounted both shares still read only to all but root heres my fstab now http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28287/
[05:46] <Ramon> hello ... I need some help.. This is what is happening after I install Ubuntu: http://rafb.net/p/3s67Xd81.html
[05:46] <arbeck23> any ideas??
[05:46] <macogw> aarcane: O_o what idiot at lenovo decided to only put in 1 usb port?
[05:46] <Scunizi> Sonicadvance1, reinstall grub with the instructions found at http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/p15.htm
[05:46] <aarcane> macogw, it's an older system
[05:46] <Aviatrixie> hey... I happen to be using an i810 chipset at the moment. It was a cheap all in one chipset that worked well and solved a lot of problems. Yeah, the video sucked, but the Soundmax was awesome.
[05:47] <puller> how can i completley remove a progra via terminal?
[05:47] <rich115> hi, i would like to know how to remove ubuntu off of my secondary hard drive without messing up the master drive
[05:47] <Truman> Hey, has anyone had any luck installing Feisty on a macbook without parallels?
[05:47] <Ramon> puller  apt-get remove --purge "name of the program"
[05:47] <sethglickman> macogw: the desktop showed up this time, but the resolution is bad again
[05:47] <jerbull88> is it possible to use vnc to remote from a windows pc?
[05:47] <puller> Ramon, ok thanks will try
[05:47] <Ramon> can some one please help me?
[05:47] <sethglickman> even though i specified "1600x1050" as one of the resolutions
[05:47] <rich115> how do  remove ubuntu?
[05:47] <Scunizi> !ask | Ramon
[05:47] <ubotu> Ramon: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:48] <Ramon> Scunizi : I did
[05:48] <macogw> aarcane: http://linux-wless.passys.nl/query_hostif.php?hostif=PCMCIA anything here that says hostap and has green should work
[05:48] <jerbull88> what was it?
[05:48] <Scunizi> Ramon, sorry just saw your last post
[05:48] <Ramon> I installed ubuntu... and it is giving me the following error after the installation: http://rafb.net/p/3s67Xd81.html
[05:48] <macogw> sethglickman: run "sudo 915resolution -l"
[05:48] <rich115> how do i remove ubuntu?
[05:48] <Ramon> Scunizi... dont worry.. just need assistance
[05:48] <metbsd> rich115, first you remove boot loader
[05:48] <doctorow> I'm trying to set up an encrypted partition under Feisty with cryptsetup, but I get a "incompatible libdevmapper" message -- any ideas?
[05:48] <rich115> how?
[05:48] <Ramon> rich :   do another partition on the disk and formatt it
[05:48] <metbsd> then you remove partition
[05:48] <arbeck23> this is killing me
[05:48] <macogw> rich115: put something where it was installed
[05:49] <sethglickman> macogw: a lot of modes
[05:49] <macogw> rich115: if you just install whatever os youre replacing it with, itll do it
[05:49] <rich115> when i do that, it ruis the grub andi  cant load windows naymore
[05:49] <puller> can anyoen help me with a kiba-dock script?
[05:49] <macogw> sethglickman: pick the one you want
[05:49] <Scunizi> Ramon, is ata1 your dvd drive?
[05:49] <rich115> i was dual booting form 2 diffrent hard drives
[05:49] <Ramon> scunizi: actually there's no cd or dvd on the computer... the HD is IDE
[05:49] <peepsalot> what's the proper place to put new applications?  i just have an archive with the files in it(Intellij Idea)
[05:49] <rich115> if i take off ubuntu, the grub ruins the windows boot record
[05:49] <madscience> I need someone to help me with scripting an event to happen when the screensaver starts and also when it stops
[05:49] <rich115> so how do i without messing up the booter?
[05:50] <sethglickman> macogw: i don't see it. in fact, i don't think i see any widescreen resolutions?
[05:50] <metbsd> rich115, that's right
[05:50] <Ramon> RICH: take the master drive off the computer... GOOGLE IT... and then put the slave in the place of the master and install another OS
[05:50] <Ramon> it will do it
[05:50] <Bored1ed> you just redo the boot record
[05:50] <macogw> sethglickman: then do "sudo gedit /etc/default/915resolution"
[05:50] <macogw> sethglickman: it doesnt show?
[05:50] <aarcane> macogw, I'm looking at that, and there's only one card on there that supports 802.11G, and it's a yellow card.
[05:50] <Bored1ed> not hard
[05:50] <macogw> sethglickman: if it was being used before it has to show
[05:50] <rich115> i dont understand
[05:50] <metbsd> rich115, you use fdisk command to restore mbr
[05:50] <Ramon> rich.. go to google
[05:50] <Sonicadvance1> seems like that entire article is about dual-booting with Windows
[05:50] <Ramon> it is simple
[05:51] <macogw> aarcane: those are all of the pcmcia wireless cards and how well they work with linux
[05:51] <Ramon> im having a weird issue here :S http://rafb.net/p/3s67Xd81.html
[05:51] <rich115> HOW DO I RESTORE THE mbr FROM THE UBUNTU LIVE cd?
[05:51] <Ramon> rich... GOOGLE
[05:51] <jerbull88> Ramon, were you installing to a blank hd?
[05:51] <macogw> rich115: you want to reinstall grub?
[05:51] <metbsd> you can't, rich115
[05:51] <Ramon> jerbull88: yes, and actually it works on another computer
[05:51] <doctorow> Does anyone know what to do about "incompatible libdevmapper" messages when using cryptsetup to create an encrypted partition?
[05:51] <Bored1ed> Rich, u use the windows disk
[05:51] <Ramon> jerbull: it is just on the one i want to have it
[05:51] <sethglickman> macogw: i don't see it here
[05:51] <metbsd> you have to use a windows boot disk, fdisk /mbr
[05:51] <rich115> and thats it?
[05:51] <Sonicadvance1> Scunizi, is that article entirely about dual-booting with Windows?
[05:51] <InHisName> I got into a crazy mode, what is it?  My mouse does not work any more in this login. No clicks on icons or pull downs start anything.  Click & drag makes a selection that is saved to desktop as abc.png
[05:51] <Ramon> rich: YES
[05:51] <jerbull88> so the one thats not working was a clean slate when u tried to install ubuntu
[05:51] <macogw> sethglickman: if it came up before it has to be listed.  are you sure it was actually showing a widescreen one before not just something higher?
[05:51] <rich115> in command prompt correct?
[05:51] <Scunizi> Ramon, you should check the drive and make sure the jumper is set for master
[05:52] <sethglickman> and i'm trying to edit the file, but i'm not sure what to type where; i set XRESO=1600, YRESO=1050, but MODE=auto is above it
[05:52] <sethglickman> i'm 90% sure
[05:52] <mytoaster> thanks for everyones help i got it to load finally :D special thanks to you nutubuntu
[05:52] <Scunizi> Sonicadvance1, no.. it also works for just reinstalling grub.
[05:52] <macogw> sethglickman: you have to put in resolutions from the list that came up before
[05:52] <Ramon> jerbull: yes it was clean. It worked on another computer.. I transferred to the one where I want to have it and it is not working.. if i take it to this computer it works
[05:52] <jerbull88> Ramon, what year is the bios dated?
[05:52] <rich115> can i use a windows 98 floppy start up disk?
[05:52] <Ramon> jerbull: let me check
[05:52] <rich115> to fix the mbr
[05:52] <sethglickman> yeah, i think it worked when i had the xserver-xorg-video-intel installed
[05:52] <macogw> sethglickman: for ex. mine shows 1280x1024 and 1280x768 so x768 is the widescreen one
[05:52] <Sonicadvance1> I would have thought that Ubuntu could have set up Grub itself, seems not =p
[05:52] <jamman> rich115, i would use the xp disc.
[05:53] <InHisName> Right clicks does a magnify and I can drag to edges and see dimmed sides and top / bottom of cube. Let go and it goes back to desktop.
[05:53] <Nutubuntu> y/w mytoaster  -  help someone out sometime and pass it on : )
[05:53] <macogw> sethglickman: wait no im dumb
[05:53] <bronze> Where must I lay shortcuts so that they are availib lle throguh terminal? (e.g. "emesene" in terminal)
[05:53] <macogw> sethglickman:  i was still in the manpage
[05:53] <Ramon> Jerbull: it is 1998
[05:53] <jamman> bronze, i believe it is /usr/share/bin
[05:53] <macogw> sethglickman: on my normal-proportions its showing all normal ones.  lemme check my ws laptop
[05:53] <rich115> i dont have it, but could i use a windows 98 start up floppy to get into DOS and do it that way?
[05:53] <doctorow> Is there a better channel than this one to ask questions about cryptsetup and libdevmapper errors?
[05:53] <Ramon> rich: absolutly
[05:53] <iphv37> macogw: problem with fullscreen fixed!! only installing gxine..
[05:53] <jamman> bronze, i take that back.
[05:54] <arbeck23> no fstab help?
[05:54] <jamman> bronze, /usr/bin i believe.
[05:54] <rich115> what command do i do once in command prompot?
[05:54] <jerbull88> Ramone, that may be the issue, its a little old for ubuntu, ubuntu has a cutoff at 2000 after that it has to emulate and that could cause issues
[05:54] <jamman> rich115, fixmbr
[05:54] <bronze> jamman, k thanks
[05:54] <rich115> and thats it?
[05:54] <Nutubuntu> doctorow - IDK about cryptsetup but if an encrypted directory would work for you, you could look at encfs
[05:54] <Ramon> jerbull: and there's no solution for that?
[05:54] <jamman> rich115, it should ask you "are you sure?" or something like that and say yes.
[05:54] <craigbass1976> BOO!
[05:55] <rich115> thanx SO MUCH!
[05:55] <craigbass1976> What's going on in here tonight?
[05:55] <jerbull88> Ramon, unfortunately a new BIOS
[05:55] <doctorow> Nutubuntu -- thanks, but I really wanna do the whole partition
[05:55] <macogw> iphv37: ah yeah xine > gstreamer.  dvd and wmv work much better with it too
[05:55] <Sonicadvance1> Wonder if it's Ubuntu 7.04's problem, last time I installed 6.* without problem
[05:55] <Ramon> jerbull: damn it sux hehe
[05:55] <puller> can anyoen help me with kiba?
[05:55] <jamman> Sonicadvance1, if whats a feisty problem?
[05:55] <jerbull88> ramon, u could switch the motherboards in the pcs
[05:55] <macogw> puller: ask on kiba dock message board
[05:55] <Nutubuntu> doctorow,  what error(s) are you getting?
[05:55] <macogw> puller: might work better
[05:56] <puller> macd, no one is there?
[05:56] <Aviatrixie> you can always try Automatix
[05:56] <PurpZeY> !automatix
[05:56] <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
[05:56] <macogw> puller: its a message board though..you leave one and check tomorrow
[05:56] <PurpZeY> !worksforme
[05:56] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[05:56] <Sonicadvance1> Wondering if It's feisty's problem of setting up grub, when I last installed Ubuntu it was version 6.* and it set itself up correctly
[05:56] <bur[n] er> blah... don't use automatix!!!!
[05:56] <puller> Aviatrixie, well i am tryign this script thign to get latest svn but its confused
[05:56] <bur[n] er> it's crap!
[05:56] <sethglickman> macogw; so is there anything else you can recommend? thank you so much for helping me so far
[05:56] <Ramon> jerbull: I can't cuz I'm using both computers and the main one is the one I have righ now
[05:56] <arbeck23> !worksforme
[05:56] <TheCreationist> Is there any way to configure my gnome panel to close an application when I middle click it's button in the taskbar?
[05:56] <macogw> puller: so ya know, its pre-alpha.  its not stable by a long stretch
[05:56] <puller> macd, well can u try and help me?
[05:57] <jerbull88> ramon, well that sux
[05:57] <puller> macd, i got this script from the forum and it wont work well
[05:57] <iphv37> well.. it's 04:56 a.m. here and i've to sleep!! c ya'll tomorrow!!
[05:57] <jamman> hmmm... mine worked perfect, even dual booting with different setups, ie 2 hd, one hd, etc.
[05:57] <puller> macd, i will pastebin somethigns
[05:57] <Sonicadvance1> I'm not dual-booting :P
[05:57] <Ramon> jerbull : :( yeah.. i've been looking on google and everywhere and it sux... there's nothing about this... I tried debian and it worked fine.. and if ubuntu is debian based I thought it was going to be working
[05:57] <dion> Hey guys, I have a strange one for ya
[05:57] <jamman> Sonicadvance1, really, well | !grub
[05:57] <macogw> sethglickman: ok yeah with my widescreen laptop, both normal and widescreen resolutions are shown
[05:57] <jamman> !grub | Sonicadvance1
[05:57] <ubotu> Sonicadvance1: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[05:58] <arbeck23> can anyone hear me?
[05:58] <jamman> arbeck23, loud and clear.
[05:58] <Nutubuntu> arbeck23,  yes
[05:58] <macogw> puller: it works better if you use my username instead of someone else's.  i dont get his/her pings ;)
[05:58] <Sonicadvance1> Didn't install Windows, why would I need a grub floppy from an Empty install?
[05:58] <dion> When I boot up in ubuntu 7.04 my network connection is not on by default, and i have to click on it and then select Wired network before I get online
[05:58] <dion> how would I avoid this
[05:58] <jamman> Sonicadvance1, that page just tells you how to reinstall grub in general.
[05:59] <puller> macogw, lol my b
[05:59] <puller> macogw, http://pastebin.ca/600857
[05:59] <Sonicadvance1> well, I'm mostly interested in WHY the Ubuntu grub install isn't working, not how to fix it
[05:59] <jamman> Sonicadvance1, oh. i see. no changes in you ide config, etc?
[05:59] <pimp31415> forgive me if i disconnect now and then doing some gutsy testing :3
[05:59] <arbeck23> has anyone ever had fstab fail to mount a drive on boot, but let you umount and mount -a and it works correctly?  It's a samba share?
[06:00] <sethglickman> macogw: should i give up?
[06:00] <Sonicadvance1> change since when jamman ?
[06:00] <macogw> sethglickman: try asking on #ubuntu-effects for beryl help
[06:00] <jamman> Sonicadvance1, is this a brand spankin new install?
[06:00] <macogw> sethglickman: i dont know why its not working.  intel's usually a piece of cake
[06:00] <Sonicadvance1> yes
[06:00] <sethglickman> ok
[06:00] <sethglickman> thank you
[06:00] <jamman> Sonicadvance1, well then.. no idea.
[06:00] <puller> macogw, and this http://pastebin.ca/600861
[06:00] <Sonicadvance1> exactly
[06:00] <puller> macogw, any ideas?
[06:00] <macogw> sethglickman: -effects is where the "specialists" are :p
[06:00] <jamman> Sonicadvance1, any errors?
[06:00] <Sonicadvance1> that's why I want to know why
[06:00] <InHisName> dion, got an answer yet? I want to know too.
[06:01] <Sonicadvance1> during the install, none. Only grub spitting out an error
[06:01] <dion> oh no , no response as of yet
[06:01] <jamman> Sonicadvance1, what exactly is it?
[06:01] <dion> I'll let ya know!
[06:01] <macogw> puller: there's a deb somewhere
[06:01] <jamman> dion, what u need?
[06:01] <feliciano> I'm trying to format a USB pendrive with gparted... and this ask me for a disklabel... and offert msdos like default... which one I have to pick??
[06:01] <puller> macogw, i need latest svn
[06:01] <Sonicadvance1> I think from this install I tried it's error 15, but other install configurations were 17 and 22 aswell
[06:01] <macogw> puller: oh...debugging it?
[06:02] <puller> macogw, u coudl say that
[06:02] <dion> When I boot up- I have to enable the wired network
[06:02] <jamman> Sonicadvance1, bios problem maybe. how old is the bios?
[06:02] <dion> to get on, its not on on boot up like my old install
[06:02] <Sonicadvance1> hm
[06:02] <Sonicadvance1> I built this computer this year in January
[06:02] <macogw> puller: just build it from source the "normal" way then
[06:02] <macogw> puller: dont bother with the script
[06:03] <puller> macd, but i woudl have to build liek 7 things.....
[06:03] <TheCreationist> Is there any way to configure my gnome panel to close an application when I middle click it's button in the taskbar?
[06:03] <jamman> dion, pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces
[06:03] <jamman> Sonicadvance1, well, sata drive?
[06:03] <jscinoz> I have a family computer with 3 users. We have a 1.3TB SMB server that we need to mount with full Read/Write access for all users. I can get both shares mounted just fine using /etc/fstab, and i have made a group called smbusers (gid=1002) and added all three users to this group. However when i specify this group in fstab either as its name or number only root gets write access to the shares. What can i do to fix this so that all users
[06:03] <jscinoz> have read/write.
[06:03] <feliciano> I'm trying to format a USB pendrive with gparted... and this ask me for a disklabel... and offert msdos like default... which one I have to pick??
[06:03] <scary> does anyone know what the "unknown symbol" in syslog translated to?
[06:04] <crimsun> scary: dmesg will tell you more.
[06:04] <Sonicadvance1> Yes, I am trying to install it on my SATA 160GB drive, I had Ubuntu installed on it when I made my computer as well with no problems
[06:04] <jscinoz> feliciano MSDOS is the most compatiable.
[06:04] <macogw> puller: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=268645 thats a howto for building it, and its not hard
[06:04] <jamman> feliciano, i would say the msdos one.
[06:04] <Sonicadvance1> But back when I first made my computer I also dual-booted with Windows
[06:04] <macogw> puller: itll take like 20 minutes
[06:04] <feliciano> jscinoz, jamman thanks you
[06:04] <puller> macogw, thast a lot lol
[06:04] <jscinoz> Not a problem :)
[06:05] <jamman> Sonicadvance1, hmmm... well then, i read about bugs in feisty and grub with sata. have you googled it?
[06:05] <macogw> puller: well its complaining about dbus plugins, and all i can think that means is that its fighting with compiz/beryl
[06:05] <peepsalot> this "file roller" archive manager gives me an error on every damn archive
[06:05] <Sonicadvance1> Hm, I should try installing version 6.* again, then upgrade to feisty from that
[06:05] <jscinoz> peepsalot, what is the error?
[06:05] <peepsalot> is there some other gui archive manager to use?
[06:05] <jamman> Sonicadvance1, i think that would work best.
[06:06] <dion> Ok jamman, i've pasted it in there
[06:06] <dion> looks like its all set to auto...
[06:06] <jamman> dion, whats the address?
[06:06] <dion> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28289/
[06:06] <Sonicadvance1> bbl, gonna try installing it
[06:07] <peepsalot> jscinoz, it gives the path of some random file in the archive  fileX: Not found in archive
[06:07] <peepsalot> when extracting
[06:07] <peepsalot> using tar from command line gives no error
[06:07] <jamman> dion, you 17 to 19 lines are messed up. it should be auto eth0 first.
[06:07] <peepsalot> is there some other archive manager i can use?
[06:08] <jscinoz> peepsalot, can you type the entire output into paste.ubuntu-nl.org and tell me the URL :)
[06:08] <Centaur5> I'm trying to put Feisty on a guy's laptop but I can't get the wireless going so I blacklisted the atheros modules but ndiswrapper says the hardware can't be found with the windows driver. Any suggestions?
[06:09] <Aviatrixie> I'm still using Breezy as my permanent os... been thinking of upgrading to Feisty but keep seeing all this talk about bugs. Ubuntu has been my permanent install for 2 years while I play with other OS's. I'm attracted to pclos and Mepis, but I love the support that Ubuntu offers. Any opinions?
[06:09] <jscinoz> peepsalot, i assume you're using GNOME right?
[06:09] <TheCreationist> Is there any way to configure my gnome panel to close an application when I middle click it's button in the taskbar?
[06:09] <dion> jamman,    so auto iface eth0 inet dhcp    or   auto  eth0 iface  inet dhcp
[06:09] <jamman> ill edit your pastebin dion.
[06:10] <pimp31415> !paste

[06:11] <mrunagi> anyone running an oslike dock?
[06:11] <Nutubuntu> Aviatrixie,  just a guess here, b/c I just came to Feisty from Dapper a week or so ago, but I wonder whether most of the bugreps come from trying to do unusually complex things ... for general computing, so far, Feisty's been fine for me with the single exception of Firefox 2 which crashes ridiculously often
[06:11] <peeps_work> anyways, i really don't care about debugging it at the moment, i just want to know if there is some other archive manager
[06:11] <peeps_work> i'm really not in the mood
[06:11] <peeps_work> to submit another bug report, etc
[06:12] <dion> Jamman - thank you VERY much
[06:12] <jamman> dion, no problem my friend. i love to help
[06:12] <dfgass> Nutubuntu, its java
[06:12] <dion> I'm rebooting now, I'll be back shortly
[06:12] <Vaske_Car> is there a big speed difference between running Ubuntu on 32bit or 64bit mode?
[06:12] <jamman> dion, who was the other person that wanted this fix?
[06:12] <Nutubuntu> dfgass, say more pls?
[06:12] <dfgass> Nutubuntu, java 5 is still on there and its conflicting with java 6
[06:13] <MetaPhaze> what command does ubuntu use for changing the opengl handler? (mesa tungston)?
[06:13] <mrunagi> how do you remove a non empty dir
[06:13] <macogw> Nutubuntu: ff2 crashes less and uses less memory than ff 1.5!  try gran paradiso though.  amyrose says it's much-improved
[06:13] <InHisName> dion, janman I see the fix. What file was this text from ?
[06:13] <dfgass> i upgraded and had big problems, i even removed 6 but 5 was installed by a binary installer so i couldn't get rid of 5 right
[06:13] <jamman> InHisName, /etc/network/interfaces
[06:13] <Nutubuntu> dfgass - the fix would be to remove java5 then? and install java 6?
[06:13] <mrunagi> is there a way to delete no-empty dirs?
[06:13] <dfgass> was java 5 installed through synaptic
[06:14] <dfgass> mine wasn't
[06:14] <preaction> mrunagi: rm -r
[06:14] <darkfame> mrunagi: rm -rf
[06:14] <jamman> mrunagi, rm -r
[06:14] <mrunagi> ty
[06:14] <logreeval> Hi, i seem to not be able to run .pl files, i want to install vmware player 2.0 but its not working
[06:14] <MetaPhaze> mrunagi rm -r
[06:14] <jamman> lol lots of responses on that one.
[06:14] <Nutubuntu> macogw, ff 1.5 has an obvious memory leak, but it didn't crash all the time ... dfgass just gave me a hint about why 2 is crashing, if that works out, then I'm all for 2
[06:14] <MetaPhaze> anyone know how to change from mesa to tungsten?
[06:14] <Nutubuntu> dfgass I used aptitude, I think
[06:14] <dfgass> Nutubuntu, thne you might have a better time getting it removed than i did
[06:14] <jscinoz_> Hey guys, i'm running ubuntu on a old PC connected to a 1080p 42" plasma display via VGA, but i can only output up to 1280x768, is because of the VGA connection or the old graphics card (Geforce2 mx400)
[06:15] <dfgass> Nutubuntu, i ended up installing 7.04 on a fresh install and it wa perfect afterwards
[06:15] <logreeval> anyone?, if i try sudo vmware-install.pl it says command not found
[06:15] <jamman> logreeval, sudo ./vmware-install.pl
[06:15] <darkfame> logreeval: sudo ./vmware-install.pl
[06:15] <logreeval> ah
[06:16] <peepsalot> jscinoz, and yes i'm on GNOME
[06:16] <darkfame> logreeval: there is a very good explanation too
[06:16] <jscinoz_> peepsalot, did you run those two commands?
[06:16] <logreeval> command not found :*
[06:16] <logreeval> :(
[06:16] <darkfame> chmod +x it
[06:16] <tommy_> Question: when i run the feisty alternate cd it says "no common cd rom found", what do i do here?
[06:16] <jamman> logreeval, sudo chmod +x vmware-install.pl
[06:16] <jscinoz_> peepsalot, first do "sudo apt-get remove --purge file-roller" then "sudo apt-get install file-roller ubuntu-desktop"
[06:16] <Nutubuntu> macogw,  alpha 1 release? have you heard whether it's stable enough not to be too much of a headache, yet?
[06:17] <logreeval> no such file?
[06:17] <macogw> Nutubuntu: gran paradiso's on alpha 6
[06:17] <jmazikowski> hi, i am using 6.06LTS and looking for an nVidia driver for my FX5200 that supports direct rendering. can anyone point me in the right direction please?
[06:17] <jamman> logreeval, are you in the directory you downloaded it at?
[06:17] <logreeval> yes, if that means just opening it in the file browser
[06:18] <jamman> logreeval, you must navigate to that directory. *command line aka the terminal*
[06:18] <Nutubuntu> :?/  ... would have sworn I just saw alpha 1 I must be tireder than I thought ... t/y again, as for so much else, macogw
[06:18] <logreeval> ah
[06:18] <logreeval> how do i do that?
[06:19] <wsjunior> is /etc/acpi/fglrx-powermde.sh supposed to be executed automatically?
[06:19] <vrkhans> hi
[06:19] <peepsalot> jscinoz, yes those commands do not solve the problem
[06:19] <jamman> logreeval, applications -> acessories -> terminal
[06:19] <vrkhans> which is the directory which contain the repository information
[06:19] <wsjunior> it works when i execute it but doesnt change the ati card powerstate automatically when i switch to battery mode
[06:19] <darkfame> vrkhans: /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[06:19] <jamman> logreeval, next cd "place-where-you-downloaded"
[06:19] <logreeval> jamman: ok
[06:20] <jamman> wsjunior, try update-rc.d fglrx-powermde.sh defaults
[06:20] <peepsalot> so, i will ask for the third time, is there any gui archive manager alternative to file-roller
[06:20] <jamman> wsjunior, you will need to run that as root or sudo it.
[06:21] <jmazikowski> are there any nVidia drivers that support direct rendering? or is there something i can change to enable it? 'glxinfo | grep rendering' returns NO
[06:21] <logreeval> ok, i think i can get this, thanks jamman
[06:21] <jamman> logreeval, no prob.
[06:21] <wsjunior> update-rc.d: /etc/init.d/fglrx-powermode.sh: file does not exist
[06:21] <PurpZeY> jmazikowski: If direct rendering is returning no, it likely means the driver installed installed properly.
[06:21] <jamman> wsjunior, well then you must not have your file in init.d.
[06:22] <wsjunior> jamman: the file is in /etc/acpi/fglrx-powermode.sh
[06:22] <tommy_>  Question: when i run the feisty alternate cd it says "no common cd rom found", can someone help?
[06:22] <jamman> wsjunior, my bad.
[06:22] <PurpZeY> jmazikowski: installed ***Improperly
[06:22] <jmazikowski> PurpZeY: how would i fix that then?
[06:22] <jamman> wsjunior, im a little sleepy.
[06:22] <wsjunior> ;-)
[06:22] <jamman> wsjunior, im not sure about that.
[06:22] <Flannel> peepsalot: of course there are. A cursory search for "archive" reveals that xarchiver is one, karchiver is another.  I'm sure if you got more creative in search terms, you'd find more
[06:22] <PurpZeY> jmazikowski: What card is it? How did you install the driver? (also, I might not be able to help, if so, someone else might and if not #ubuntu-effects might)
[06:23] <wsjunior> So, how can i make /etc/acpi/fglrx-powermode.sh be executed automatically everytime i switch to battery mode??
[06:23] <scary> I have a unknown symbol snd_hda_intel error in my syslog.  Does anyone have any suggestion to try and get my sound to work?
[06:23] <tommy_> does anyone know where i can get ATAPI cd-rom drivers from?
[06:23] <jmazikowski> PurpZeY: FX5200, apt-get install nvidia-glx (im pretty sure that was it)
[06:23] <jamman> dion, did that fix it?
[06:23] <TheCreationist> Is there any way to configure my gnome panel to close an application when I middle click it's button in the taskbar?
[06:24] <jmazikowski> PurpZeY: also, i am running xgl. would that cause this problem?
[06:24] <MetaPhaze> is there any way to make synaptic run the install scripts for a particular set of packages over again?
[06:24] <PurpZeY> jmazikowski: Did you try looking at these steps
[06:24] <vrkhans> how can i install real player , i tried sudo apt-get install realplay . but didnt work.
[06:24] <jamman> MetaPhaze, try sudo dpkg-reconfigure "package names"

[06:26] <wsjunior> i have only 30 min of battery life in ubuntu and 2 hours in windows
[06:26] <wsjunior> jamman: it is already there
[06:26] <PurpZeY> jmazikowski: If that fails ask in #ubuntu-effects, should get you all squared away.
[06:26] <jamman> wsjunior, or create a launcher on your desktop that runs it.
[06:26] <wsjunior> but its not executed automaticallt
[06:26] <jamman> wsjunior, well then i have no idea.
[06:27] <jmazikowski> PurpZeY: '!nvidia | jmazikowski' gave me bash command not found
[06:27] <PurpZeY> jmazikowski: Just ask in #ubuntu-effects
[06:27] <dion> Any other idea's about aht jamman
[06:27] <jamman> dion, try uninstalling netwok-manager or the like
[06:27] <jscinoz_> Hey guys, i still cant get my smb shares to mount with read write access for all users, I've made a group called smbusers with the GID 1003, and this is my fstab: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28296/ what is making it not work? only root has write access.
[06:27] <wsjunior> ./fglrx-powersave.sh: line 4: getXconsole: command not found
[06:27] <jmazikowski> PurpZeY: thanks for your help!
[06:27] <mrunagi> i broke my apt-get can anyone help me?
[06:27] <PurpZeY> jmazikowski: No problem
[06:27] <PurpZeY> mrunagi: How did you break apt-get?
[06:27] <Dr_Willis_> DarkED,  i think theres a .dmrc file that sets the default
[06:27] <Dionnow> OK I'll try that jamman
[06:27] <mrunagi> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28295/
[06:28] <mrunagi> does that help?
[06:28] <Dionnow> jamman is the name of the package network-manager ?
[06:28] <DarkED> Dr_Willis_, ok, i'll look for it, thanks
[06:28] <Dr_Willis_> jscinoz_,  you may want to check out the 2 books in the 'samba-doc' package. THey are very well done html books.
[06:28] <Dr_Willis_> !info samba-doc
[06:28] <ubotu> samba-doc: Samba documentation. In component main, is optional. Version 3.0.24-2ubuntu1.2 (feisty), package size 6754 kB, installed size 14512 kB
[06:28] <Dr_Willis_> jscinoz,  you want like a /Public share where EVERYONE can read/write to?
[06:29] <jamman> jscinoz, try "sudo smbmount //share/name /place/to/mount -o rw,fmask=777,dmask=777,user=,password="
[06:29] <MetaPhaze> what package would this girl need to re-configure for her ati drivers
[06:29] <MetaPhaze> ?
[06:29] <DarkED> Dr_Willis_, my .dmrc has 'Session=default' and thats all
[06:29] <PurpZeY> mrunagi: Someone else can look at that, but I don't think it's your apt-get. and if it is why not just run the command the return told you to run?
[06:29] <jamman> Dionnow, should be.
[06:29] <Dr_Willis_> jscinoz,  for users mounting samba shares  - you may want to check out that fusesmb package/tool.
[06:29] <jamman> Dionnow, i use kde so im not exactly sure.
[06:29] <Dionnow> jamman k apt-get removing now
[06:29] <varun0> is there any usenet reader that anyone recommends?
[06:30] <Dr_Willis_> DarkED,  change it to somthing else like 'kde' or 'gnome' perhaps. It may be the permissions for that file is keeping gdm from changeing it. Could just delete it
[06:30] <jamman> Dionnow, good.
[06:30] <Dr_Willis_> varun0,  ive used Pan over the years. :0
[06:30] <Dionnow> jamman haha I forgot that i use synergy to share my mouse over a netowrk connection
[06:30] <defrysk> varun0, for downloading binaries Pan
[06:30] <Dionnow> now I gotta go grab another mouse and keyboard
[06:30] <Dionnow> lol
[06:30] <peepsalot> is there a way to globally disable the pc speaker, short of ripping it from the computer case?
[06:30] <jamman> Dionnow, synergy for a mouse???
[06:30] <darkfame> peepsalot: yes
[06:30] <varun0> Dr_Willis_, defrysk : thank you much!!
[06:31] <jscinoz_> Is there a linux alternative to Visual Studio .Net?
[06:31] <darkfame> jscinoz: yeah
[06:31] <jscinoz_> or can Visual studio be run satisfactorally under wine?
[06:31] <jscinoz_> whats it called dark?
[06:31] <varun0> jscinoz: emacs. kidding. :-)
[06:31] <jscinoz_> rawr
[06:31] <Nutubuntu> t/y again, macogw, I have gran paradiso running ... this could be fun ;P
[06:31] <Dr_Willis_> isent Mono the .net  thang for linux?
[06:31] <darkfame> jscinoz: there are many different IDEs... but KDevelop is probably the closest.
[06:31] <MetaPhaze> help... can anyone tell a gentoo user how to help an ubuntu user?... what package is the tungsten drivers in?
[06:32] <varun0> jscinoz: do you just need an IDE? Or do you need to develop .net code?
[06:32] <jscinoz_> develop code :)
[06:32] <peepsalot> jscinoz_, .net in linux == mono
[06:32] <aubade> How can you check the UUID on a device?
[06:32] <Dionnow> jamman yea i have a windows synergy server that use to share mouse/keyboard with 2 ubuntu pcs
[06:32] <DarkED> Dr_Willis_, ok
[06:32] <jscinoz_> actually both
[06:32] <Dr_Willis_> aubade,  ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid   is how i do it.
[06:32] <Dr_Willis_> or was it disks.
[06:32] <jscinoz_> I'll have a look at kdevelop
[06:32] <varun0> jscinoz: I'd google for a mono ide.......beyond that I am no use to you
[06:32] <jamman> Dionnow, hmmm never tried that before. i just might sometime.
[06:32] <ponicg> jscinoz, I use a VM with the IE6 image + VS.net but you can use KDevelop and Monodevelop.
[06:32] <cafuego> aubade: tune2fs -l /dev/aprtition
[06:32] <peepsalot> jscinoz_, what kind of code you writing?
[06:32] <jamman> Dionnow, so did it work?
[06:32] <ponicg> jscinoz, And I write .net code daily for work.
[06:32] <darkfame> jscinoz: it's the most complete IDE I know, supports about any language.
[06:32] <peepsalot> what language
[06:33] <cafuego> aubade: dunno the one for xfs/reiser
[06:33] <jscinoz_> VB and C
[06:33] <jscinoz_> btw peepsalot did you get file-roller working?
[06:33] <rue_mohr> would anyone be interested in idling in #garfield for a bit for me?
[06:33] <aubade> cafuego: Eh, it's actually an optical drive. Keeps swapping between hda and hde after boots.
[06:33] <peepsalot> jscinoz_, no, i used tar
[06:33] <jscinoz_> did you try doing a --purge uninstall then reinstall?
[06:34] <peepsalot> yes
[06:34] <cafuego> aubade: ah, then you'll not have an uuid for it
[06:34] <peepsalot> same error still
[06:34] <MetaPhaze> rue_mohr... i'm in why am i idleing
[06:34] <darkfame> peepsalot: error is?
[06:34] <rue_mohr> watch and see what rif and tom do
[06:34] <Dionnow> jamman - well I just did the uninstall, and had to reboot in order to get the mouse/keyboard to work so i'm comin back up now.  I'm wondering if i'm not going to be able to apt-get seeings as how theres no network connection, if thats the case I'm sure i can install of the disk
[06:34] <peepsalot> darkfame, http://pastebin.ca/600867
[06:34] <jscinoz_> darn
[06:34] <MetaPhaze> rue_mohr got ya
[06:35] <aubade> Wonder if there's any conflict if I were to have two fstab entries to the same mount point.
[06:35] <arbeck23> can anyone help me with fstab?
[06:35] <jscinoz_> For the flash plugin should i use the non-free or free one?
[06:35] <darkfame> peepsalot: are you sure it's not the archive itself?
[06:35] <peepsalot> i posted it earlier
[06:35] <Dr_Willis_> arbeck23,  clarify the problem and see. :)
[06:36] <peepsalot> darkfame, well, using tar alone doesn't give any errors
[06:36] <Truman> Is there a preferences icon or something for configuring laptop touchpads?  This tap-to-click is going to drive me insane.
[06:36] <peepsalot> file-roller gave me errors on 3 out of 3 different archives
[06:36] <jamman> Dionnow, you should have network. if not post the output of "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" (you may need to pastebin it)
[06:36] <peepsalot> tar did not
[06:36] <arbeck23> dr_willis, i have a line that mounts a samba share... when i boot it fails... but if i do a umount of the dir, and then mount -a it works
[06:36] <darkfame> peepsalot: weird, which version of fileroller?
[06:36] <sparr> the ubuntu clamav packages complain to my cron logs (and thus my email) that they are out of date.  is this a bug?  i dont want to know if there isnt a new package yet.  how can i fix it?
[06:37] <Dionnow> oh wow
[06:37] <Dionnow> jamman - i do, actually
[06:37] <peepsalot> do everyone's gdm login fonts look kinda oversized, or is it just mine?
[06:37] <peepsalot> the font is bigger than the input box
[06:37] <jamman> Dionnow, you have internet! good...
[06:38] <defrysk> peepsalot, sudo gdmsetup and set up your fonts yourself
[06:39] <Dionnow> jamman yea def good....now that sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart .... that would just restart the networking script...or exactly what?
[06:39] <Dionnow> btw jamman i thank ya again
[06:39] <jamman> Dionnow, yes, basically try to get a new dhcp adress. no need to do this if it works.
[06:39] <jamman> Dionnow, yeah, network-manager can be a pain most of the time.
[06:40] <Dionnow> is there a better one to use?
[06:40] <Dionnow> I'm content this way if not
[06:40] <jamman> dion, do you use wireless?
[06:40] <peepsalot> defrysk, i don't see font options there
[06:40] <Truman> Does anyone have any experience with Ubuntu on a macbook?
[06:40] <ibanex> Truman: yes, i dual booted mine
[06:40] <ibanex> os x / ubuntu
[06:40] <Jamesinator> How do I request for a grossly outdated package to be updated to the latest version of the software it contains?
[06:41] <peepsalot> defrysk, but really, does/did yours look weird too, or is it just me?
[06:41] <Dionnow> jamman - well not on the pc that i was just configuring, now the one that i'm chatting with now i do have wireless, and i actaully just got it working today after a bit of a struggle with ndis I ended up installing wifi radar to get config this one
[06:41] <Truman> ibanex:  Do you know where to go to turn off tap-to-click on the touchpad?
[06:41] <defrysk> peepsalot, not weird here , sorry
[06:41] <ibanex> Truman: what i did instead was disable tap to click when typing... let me grab you a link that might help
[06:41] <n0skillz> hey all, can anyone tell me if I can set ubuntu to restore all my open windows on reboot?
[06:42] <Jamesinator> n0skillz: Use the "hibernate" feature
[06:42] <Truman> ibanex:  Does it still tap to click when you're moving the mouse around?
[06:42] <jamman> Dionnow, that was the program i was going to recomend. only for wifi tho. wicd is another good one. but for wired i use the built in System -> Administration -> Networking
[06:42] <n0skillz> for instance, if i have a shell open and firefox, I reboot, i want to see them up there when it comes back up
[06:42] <wsjunior> using powernowd my max cpu freq is 2.2GHZ but when i start switch to battery and then back to ac it only achieve 1.8, never 2.2 again, how can i fix it?
[06:43] <ibanex> Truman: i believe so, but there should be a way to totally disable it with something like this method http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=271052&highlight=disable+touchpad+while+typing
[06:43] <Dionnow> jamman - thats what I think I'm going to do
[06:43] <jamman> n0skillz, there is a property under system -> prefrences -> sessions.
[06:43] <ibanex> sorry i'm not on it right now
[06:43] <john> i am having a weird problem with sound. it will work in some apps, but not others
[06:43] <jamman> Dionnow, yeah, hopefully network manager will be fixed in gutsy.
[06:43] <vecina> Does anyone know about a major XP issue my girlfirend's having? I despise windows with every shred of my soul and i dont know where to go
[06:44] <teratoma> so what magical thing do i need to set to have sound work after hibernation ?
[06:44] <jamman> vecina, i have used xp for a long time. shoot away.
[06:44] <Truman> ibanex:  That's alright, thanks for the link ... is there anything that need to do specifically to optimize ubuntu for the macbook?
[06:44] <jamman> teratoma, let me grab a link thatll do this for you.
[06:44] <vecina> jamman: Whats it mean when your computer reboots at the startup screen over and over with like a single frame of a blue screen showing
[06:45] <defrysk> n0skillz, system> prefs> sessions session option tab
[06:45] <vecina> jamman: and thats veen in PROMPT mode
[06:45] <Dionnow> jamman that would be nice....  Now I have another question for ya, hopefully it will be just as easy for you...
[06:45] <jamman> Dionnow, shoot away.
[06:45] <ibanex> Truman: np, all i did was set resolution to 1200x800, touchpad stuff, and then converted my apple key to an alt
[06:45] <n0skillz> thanks :-)
[06:45] <jscinoz__> Hey guys, i still cant get my smb shares to mount with read write access for all users, I've made a group called smbusers with the GID 1003, and this is my fstab: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28296/ what is making it not work? only root has write access.
[06:46] <jamman> vecina, that would be the bsod, blue screen of death. i take it you havent traded hds or the like with it?
[06:46] <peepsalot> so darkfame, you said there is a way to globally disable the pc speaker, can you elaborate?
[06:46] <vecina> jamman: no, its still as it came
[06:46] <mrunagi_> after you install awn how do you start it?
[06:46] <Dionnow> jamman - I want to set synergy to run when the computer first boots, so i can use it at the login box, currently i have to manually log in and then start synergy....what would I edit to make a prog run before i open any sessions
[06:46] <JeffH> I'm running ubuntu in a mac parallels vm.. when I shut it down I get this funky psychadelic colorful screen...  is that normal?
[06:46] <john> does anyone know about how to get sound working from an integrated soundcard. i have an asus m2n-e sli
[06:46] <Dr_Willis_> jscinoz_,  you  perhaps need to chmod the shared directory?     I pretty much use the fusesmb stuff now a days instead of fstab entries.
[06:46] <vecina> jamman: This happened to her before, and when she did system recovery it erased all her data
[06:46] <Truman> ibanex:  doesn't the "alt/option" key act like alt?
[06:46] <Centaur5> ndiswrapper says the hardware isn't present when I load the correct windows driver so what can I do?
[06:47] <ibanex> Truman: yeah, but i feel like it was a little awkwardly placed, i just like the 'alt' closer
[06:47] <jamman> Dionnow, there is a pretty easy way. add your synergy command to /etc/rc.local
[06:48] <ibanex> Truman: did you already configure your xorg.conf ?
[06:48] <Dionnow> Ok jamman, I Shall try that in a moment
[06:48] <Truman> ibanex:  you mean to get rid of the tapping?  I'm in the middle of that part
[06:48] <john> does anyone know about how to get sound working from an integrated soundcard. i have an asus m2n-e sli
[06:48] <jamman> teratoma, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=425170
[06:48] <vecina> Oh what i wouldnt give to convince her to stop using that buggy, crash-ridden operating system
[06:48] <peepsalot> how can i see free disk space on a partition?
[06:48] <teratoma> jamman thanks, looking
[06:49] <peepsalot> w/ command line
[06:49] <ibanex> Truman: i just meant for 1200x800
[06:50] <ibanex> Truman: but now that i think of it, you could just turn the tapping "Off"
[06:50] <jamman> vecina, well, try to do a recovery with the windows xp disc, there should be an option while installing to "fix this xp system" or something like that *not the press r to go to a recovery console*
[06:50] <Truman> Ah, no, but I'll do that while I'm in there
[06:50] <Truman> ibanex:  Is taht in xorg?
[06:50] <JeffH> How do I replace gnome with kde?
[06:50] <vecina> jamman: would you believe this HP computer came without a windows xp disk?
[06:50] <Jamesinator> jeffH: Get kubuntu
[06:50] <peepsalot> what is command to rebuild the grub menu?
[06:50] <jamman> vecina, yes, i can...
[06:51] <JeffH> jamesinator: is that a flavor of ubuntu?
[06:51] <darkfame> peepsalot: if you want a forever fix: unplug it from your motherboard.
[06:51] <jamman> vecina, try a different disc than. it should work with it.
[06:51] <Jamesinator> jeffH: Yes, it's Ubuntu with KDE instead of GNOME
[06:51] <JeffH> nice.. thanks.
[06:51] <vecina> jamman: dont have one, mine's 64 bit :/
[06:51] <Jamesinator> peepsalot: df -h
[06:51] <ibanex> Truman: i believe it would be: Option "SHMConfig" "on"
[06:51] <ibanex> oops
[06:51] <ibanex> Truman: Option "SHMConfig" "off"
[06:52] <peepsalot> darkfame, i was asking how to do it without physically going into the case
[06:52] <peepsalot> it's a company laptop, and I don't feel like opening it
[06:52] <Truman> ibanex:  Alright, then I'd have to restart X, right?
[06:52] <jamman> vecina, i have no ideas than. do a backup and then restore.
[06:52] <darkfame> peepsalot: modprobe -r pcspkr
[06:52] <peepsalot> thx Jamesinator
[06:52] <JeffH> do I get that at the ubuntu website?  Or some place else?
[06:52] <ibanex> Truman: yeah... see if that works....
[06:52] <peepsalot> ok
[06:52] <Dionnow> jamman - do you know what it means when it says In order to enable or disable this script just change the "execution bits".
[06:52] <Truman> k, be back in a moment
[06:52] <ibanex> k
[06:53] <jamman> Dionnow, which script would this be?
[06:53] <Jamesinator> How do I request an outdated package to be updated to the latest version of the software it contains?
[06:53] <Dionnow> jamman - rc.local
[06:53] <Dionnow> i'm adding the synergy client run command
[06:54] <Truman> ibanex:  no luck
[06:54] <ibanex> Truman: okay, i realized that probably means you can just now 'not configure' it
[06:54] <bendover> hey, im trying to run tasksel but I get a wierd error about debconf failing to run
[06:55] <Truman> ibanex:  yeah .. hey would you mind shooting me that link again?  I lost it when I closed
[06:55] <ibanex> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=271052&highlight=disable+touchpad+while+typing
[06:55] <Jamesinator> bendover: It would help if you told us the specific error
[06:55] <ibanex> Truman: maybe something with the syndaemon... but i'm not sure how to completely disable it
[06:56] <Truman> ibanex:  Alright, well I guess I'll take what I can get for now - and figure out how to get rid of it completely later
[06:56] <ibanex> you could always set the timeout really long :)
[06:56] <bendover> Jamesinator: just waiting for someone to let me know they are here... http://www.pastebin.ca/600916
[06:56] <darkfame> sudo cat echo "It's alive!!" >> /etc/rc.d/rc.local    ;P
[06:56] <Truman> ibanex:  brb, have to restart x again
[06:56] <ibanex> k
[06:56] <peepsalot> darkfame, I think that gets reset on every boot though, right?
[06:57] <darkfame> peepsalot: just put it in your rc.local file
[06:57] <Gigs> How do I work with these config fragments in linux-source-2.6.20/debian/Config?  It appears that the configs are fragmented into parts somehow?  The documentation on the web site about compiling a kernel is very out of date and is no help.
[06:57] <jamman> teratoma, did that work for you? it solved mine.
[06:57] <jamman> Dionnow, which script would this be?
[06:57] <jamman> Dionnow, which script would this be?
[06:57] <Dionnow> jamman - rc.local
[06:58] <jamman> Dionnow, sorry about that. dang wifi card is buggy.
[06:58] <n2diy> Gigs: what are you trying to do?
[06:58] <JeffH> is kubuntu 32bit or 64bit?
[06:58] <Dionnow> jamman, it looks like it does end up running synergyc, and it gets connected to the server
[06:58] <defrysk> JeffH, yes
[06:58] <jamman> Dionnow, well, if it is saying that then it's probably a /etc/init.d/ file
[06:58] <Gigs> n2diy: the root thing?  Enable the IFB module that ubuntu apparently neglects to compile.
[06:58] <Truman> ibanex:  Aha!  I love the internet
[06:59] <ibanex> Truman: workin?
[06:59] <Dionnow> jamman but it doesnt seem to work, and after i log in the process is still running but it doesnt seem to work, i dont know if it has to do with X or what, but i ended up just killing it and then reopeing it and it worked
[06:59] <Truman> ibanex:  Option "MaxTapTime" "0" disables it completely
[06:59] <JeffH> defrysk: thanks.. the amd version says 64bit.. but the x86 version doesn't say 32bit or 64bit.
[06:59] <peepsalot> darkfame, where is that file?
[06:59] <ibanex> Truman: nice, i may add that
[06:59] <darkfame> peepsalot: /etc/rc.d
[06:59] <Jamesinator> bendover: http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2005/12/msg01190.html
[06:59] <jamman> Dionnow, so is it a /etc/init.d/ file? if so there is a much better way.
[06:59] <darkfame> Dionnow: are you having troubles with a touchpad?
[07:00] <jamman> teratoma, did that solve it?
[07:00] <jscinoz__> Hey guys, im mounting a SMB share though /etc/fstab, it sets the Group id properly (if i right click the folder /media/ i can see the group is smbusers) but it only gives write permission to the owner (root) instead of the group (smbusers) how can i set it to give read/write to both owner and group?
[07:00] <defrysk> JeffH, x86 is always 32
[07:00] <n2diy> Gigs: The root thing? With a Debian kernel? For IFB, what is IFB?
[07:00] <peepsalot> darkfame, there is one in /etc and one in /etc/init.d
[07:00] <Truman> Ibanex:  It's so beautiful -- I can't stand that tap-to-click thing.  I may have to do the other too, though, 'cause the mouse skitters across the screen every time I brush it, still
[07:00] <Dionnow> darkfame, no sir, just with synergy and boot scripts
[07:00] <Truman> Ibanex:  Now all I've gotta do is fix my rez and get wifi working
[07:00] <Jamesinator> bendover: Essentially, it's a problem with debconf that's supposed to be getting fixed in a new version
[07:00] <darkfame> Dionnow: ok, never mind. :)
[07:00] <Gigs> n2diy: no I mean the root cause of me wanting to recompile a kernel is ubuntu's failure to compile the IFB module.
[07:00] <ibanex> Truman: res will take 2 seconds and will look beautiful
[07:00] <Dionnow> jamman -well no i configed the RC.local file.
[07:00] <ibanex> Truman: sudo apt-get install 915resolution
[07:01] <bendover> Jamesinator: yes, i read that before, but i still can't solve the issue
[07:01] <wsjunior> using powernowd my max cpu freq is 2.2GHZ but when i start switch to battery and then back to ac it only achieve 1.8, never 2.2 again, how can i fix it?
[07:01] <n2diy> Gigs: ok, what is IFB?
[07:01] <jamman> Dionnow, so whats the command to start synergy?
[07:01] <Jamesinator> bendover: Correct, you can't
[07:01] <ibanex> Truman: do you know how to edit res from xorg.conf?
[07:01] <Gigs> n2diy: IFB is used for traffic shaping and wan emulation, it's a part of the standard kernel.
[07:01] <darkfame> peepsalot: sorry, in ubuntu it's in /etc
[07:01] <bendover> Jamesinator: so how do I run tasksel ?
[07:01] <peepsalot> ok i will try that thx
[07:01] <Dionnow> synergyc 192.168.1.149 for me
[07:01] <Jamesinator> jscinoz__: sudo chown -R root:smbusers /media/yourdisk
[07:01] <jamman> Dionnow, but it works right?
[07:01] <Gigs> n2diy: but.. not compiled on ubuntu apparently :)
[07:02] <Truman> Ibanex:  yeah, and 1280x800 is already listed in there
[07:02] <Beriant> does anyone know what to do when i get this error
[07:02] <Beriant> checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[07:02] <Jamesinator> bendover: According to that bug report, it's broken until the next version comes out. You can try to update it, but as I barely know what it is I wouldn't know if it's fixed yet
[07:02] <darkfame> peepsalot: the script in /etc/init.d/ just executes /etc/rc.local
[07:02] <peepsalot> darkfame, do i need to call sudo in this script, or will it already be running as root?
[07:02] <ibanex> Truman: okay, after you get that package restart X
[07:02] <PurpZeY> Is there something about Remote Desktop using VNC that I am missing, I configured it on my server, and I am just trying to access it using vncviewer and getting the error "could not convert host to address"
[07:02] <defrysk> Beriant, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[07:02] <darkfame> peepsalot: no need to sudo
[07:02] <peepsalot> ok
[07:02] <bendover> Jamesinator: so my only fix is reinstalling the system ?
[07:02] <n2diy> Gigs: ok, can you track down the module(driver) you need, and load it. That way you don't have to recompile the kernel.
[07:02] <PurpZeY> !vnc
[07:02] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[07:02] <Gigs> n2diy: if it were compiled, I would load it.
[07:02] <Truman> Ibanex:  It's called 915resolution ?  Do I have to add additional repositories or something?  I can't find it
[07:03] <Jamesinator> bendover: No...
[07:03] <Gigs> n2diy: it is not compiled on ubuntu.
[07:03] <jscinoz__> Jamesinator, it already has the correct owner and group set, i'm saying the permissions arent correct, and i dont think i can chmod an entire smbshare, i think theres something i need to do in etc/fstab
[07:03] <bendover> Jamesinator:  I'm all ears... erm, eyes...
[07:03] <Jamesinator> bendover: The fix is in debconf itself. Unless the new system has the updated version of debconf, that won't do anything
[07:03] <ibanex> Truman: hmm checking
[07:03] <Dionnow> well it seems to load the process, but it doesnt work untill after i log in, kill the process the script opened
[07:03] <Dionnow> and then  reopen it
[07:03] <Beriant> thx
[07:03] <Dionnow> jamman well it seems to load the process, but it doesnt work untill after i log in, kill the process the script opened
[07:03] <ibanex> Truman: you do need universe
[07:03] <Jamesinator> bendover: What I'm saying is, until you can update your version of debconf, you're screwed
[07:03] <n2diy> Gigs: if the module exsists, you don't need to compile anything, just load it.
[07:04] <PurpZeY> What's the simplest way to access files over a small secure network from one machine to another?
[07:04] <Truman> ibanex:  how do I add that?
[07:04] <Gigs> n2diy: sigh, it exists, it is *not compiled on ubuntu*.
[07:04] <bendover> Jamesinator: so what I said, a total reinstall, is the only fix.
[07:04] <ibanex> Truman: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:04] <bendover> didn't happen until a crash ...
[07:04] <Jamesinator> bendover: Yes, sure, reinstall your system so that it can have the same version of the app that has the problem, and you'll have a new system to configure and the same problem
[07:04] <n2diy> Gigs: sigh, :) is it available for Debian?
[07:04] <jamman> Dionnow, well then i have no ide.
[07:04] <Jamesinator> bendover: Alternatively, wait until the new version of debconf comes out and update debconf.
[07:05] <bendover> Jamesinator: tasksel crashed, and ever since then this is happening
[07:05] <Truman> Ibanex:  K, got that
[07:05] <Dionnow> hehe
[07:05] <jamman> Dionnow, seems a little odd.
[07:05] <Gigs> n2diy: no idea
[07:05] <Dionnow> jamman- thanks for all the help so far!
[07:05] <ibanex> Truman: then add "universe" to the end of the main repositories
[07:05] <ibanex> Truman: the deb and the deb-src
[07:05] <Dionnow> jamman, ok, heres something a little easier
[07:05] <Jamesinator> bendover: Look, I'm just telling you what was in the bug report, and unless you can update your version of debconf, you won't be able to fix this
[07:05] <ibanex> or wait
[07:05] <n2diy> Gigs: sigh, :) what is it called?
[07:05] <Gigs> n2diy: the module is named ifb
[07:05] <jamman> Dionnow, alright.
[07:05] <Dionnow> jamman, vnc and ubuntu and getting the full desktop to load up?
[07:05] <Dionnow> jamman- been through any of that?
[07:06] <Gigs> n2diy: Device drivers -> Network device support -> Intermediate Functional Block support in the kernel config
[07:06] <jscinoz__> chmod 775 is RWX, rwx, rx, correct?
[07:06] <Truman> ibanex:  to every one listed?
[07:06] <n2diy> Gigs: ok, have you searched Synaptic for it?
[07:06] <jamman> Dionnow, i had a box set up for music that i could vnc to so yes.
[07:06] <Fedman> hmm can someone recommend me a good torrent client since azureus is causing me tons of problems
[07:06] <Gigs> n2diy: what do you mean?
[07:06] <ibanex> Truman: just to http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
[07:06] <Gigs> n2diy: isn't that some gui front end to apt?
[07:07] <n2diy> Gigs: yes!
[07:07] <Gigs> n2diy: well, apt-cache search ifb doesn't bring up anything
[07:07] <stevem> fedman: try ktorrent
[07:07] <Dionnow> jamman - did you have to do anything special to it?
[07:07] <peepsalot> darkfame, you are the best.  i've finally been rid of the scourge.
[07:07] <Truman> Ibanex:  Still can't find 915resolution
[07:07] <ibanex> Truman: sudo apt-get update
[07:08] <Truman> ah, aha
[07:08] <n2diy> Gigs: ok, how about sudo apt-get instal ifb?
[07:08] <Fedman> stevem: uhmm anything with gtk frontend? I was thinking about setting up toorentflux but I'm too lazy to install apache
[07:08] <darkfame> peepsalot: np
[07:08] <jamman> Dionnow, nope. just used the defualt vnc server and then downloaded a vnc viewer (was viewing on windows you see)
[07:08] <n2diy> instal/install
[07:08] <Gigs> n2diy: it's a kernel module...
[07:08] <Jamesinator> Fedman: What are you looking for? A bittorrent client?
[07:08] <Dionnow> jamman - ok ok
[07:08] <jamman> Dionnow, the only thing was i set it up to login automatically.
[07:08] <Truman> Ibanex:  Do you find it annoying to only have one mouse button?
[07:09] <bendover> Jamesinator: what I mean is that my system cashed today while using debconf, and now a lot of things are crashing and im thinking it had something to do with that
[07:09] <ibanex> Truman: sometimes, i believe F12 is right click or something
[07:09] <stevem> fedman: try out different clients then, i cant say i recommend deluge tho
[07:09] <peepsalot> my last question (i think) for the night: how do i get ubuntu to do it's auto regenerate the grub menu.lst?
[07:09] <jamman> Dionnow, anythig else?
[07:09] <ibanex> Truman: you find 915?
[07:09] <Madpilot> Fedman, deluge-client - gtk, usable, not as heavy as azerus
[07:09] <Fedman> Jamesinator: yep
[07:09] <n2diy> Gigs: fine, modules don't need to be compiled into the kernel, you can load them later, that is why they are modules.
[07:09] <Dionnow> jamman - and you have to login at :0 to get the current desktop right?
[07:09] <Jamesinator> bendover: Sorry, but I can't diagnose your system, I'm only relating what the bug report said.
[07:09] <Dionnow> jamman - heh well at the moment, no!
[07:09] <Fedman> stevem, madpilot: thx I'll give it a try
[07:09] <Dionnow> jamman - once again, thanks for all the help you've given tonight
[07:09] <jamman> Dionnow, yes, but i didn't have to do it.
[07:09] <Gigs> n2diy: well, yeah
[07:10] <Dionnow> jamman - been great
[07:10] <jamman> Dionnow, no prob. but i need to hit the hay.
[07:10] <Jamesinator> Fedman: I personally use uTorrent through WINE, and it works excellently. However, you might try bittorrent with bittorrent-gnome
[07:10] <john> i am having sound issues
[07:10] <Dionnow> jamman - goodnight sir
[07:10] <jamman> i should be on tomarrow if you need it.
[07:10] <Madpilot> Fedman, deluge isn't packaged yet, but the .deb from their site is very stable
[07:10] <Truman> Ibanex:  I'll look again in a moment.. thought it'd be a good idea to apt-get upgrade first
[07:10] <n2diy> Gigs: once the kernel is running, you can add all the modules you want, with in reason.
[07:10] <Fedman> Jamesinator: I love utorrent does it work stable through wine?
[07:10] <ibanex> Truman: yes it would, although it might grab a new kernel and want a reboot
[07:10] <Jamesinator> Fedman: Yes, it works great!
[07:11] <Gigs> n2diy: what is your point?  The module isn't compiled on ubuntu.
[07:11] <Jamesinator> Fedman: Sometimes I have uPnP issues with it though, but other than that it's been working very well.
[07:11] <Truman> Ibanex:  Yeah, it probably will -- oh well, can I install the 915 before I let it reboot?
[07:11] <n2diy> Gigs: what does modprobe ifb tell you?
[07:11] <Gigs> n2diy: the module isn't there.... heh
[07:12] <Gigs> n2diy: I wouldn't be at this point if the module was there!
[07:12] <Truman> Ibanex:  Nevermind, didn't want me to.. ah, and I got the 915 res, too
[07:12] <Truman> Ibanex:  be right back
[07:12] <n2diy> Gigs: my point is, a module doesn't need to be compiled into the kernel, the whole point of having a module is it can be added in, after the system is running.
[07:13] <Gigs> n2diy: if the distro doesn't compile the kernel at all, then it's not there.
[07:13] <Gigs> n2diy: I mean the module
[07:13] <n2diy> Gigs: you need to find the module, DL it, and install it.
[07:13] <Truman> Ibanex:  Ah, so pretty
[07:13] <Gigs> n2diy: it would have to be compiled for my exact kernel version.
[07:13] <Gigs> n2diy: somehow, that seems an unlikely find.
[07:14] <ibanex> Truman: yeah i always get a kick out of that every time
[07:14] <n2diy> Gigs: why do you think it is specific to you, and your system?
[07:14] <Gigs> n2diy: what?
[07:14] <n2diy> Gigs: why do you think it is specific to you, and your system?
[07:14] <Gigs> n2diy: it's not... no ubuntu user has the IFB
[07:14] <adante> hi, anybody installed ubuntu on vmware? i am having trouble with the networking
[07:15] <ibanex> Truman: i'm going to bed, but if you need some more help let me know... enomitch (at) gmail.com
[07:15] <Gigs> n2diy: but I haven't seen anything indicating that anyone has made debs for it
[07:15] <n2diy> Gigs: so go with a Debian module, Ubuntu is a child of Debian.
[07:15] <Truman> Ibanex:  Thanks a lot -- goodnight
[07:15] <Gigs> n2diy: you can't just mix and match kernel modules
[07:15] <ibanex> Truman: or just hit me up here, no problem, see ya
[07:15] <simplyseth> okay so adept hides postgresql and mysql on purpose ?
[07:15] <n2diy> Gigs: yes, maybe? :)
[07:15] <user_> Mr. GokiL
[07:16] <Gigs> anyway I just need to understand what all these kernel config fragments are and how to use them so I can recreate something that is close to the currently running kernel.
[07:16] <n2diy> Gigs: Can you find an RPM for it? Then run Alien on the RPM, cross your fingers, and it will become a .deb.
[07:16] <Fedman> Jamesinator: thx for the tip it really works ok :)
[07:16] <Jamesinator> Fedman: No problem, happy torrenting. :)

[07:21] <Lgndryhr> hi. i have a question about the nvidia driver and nvidia-glx
[07:21] <Lgndryhr> do i need/want nvidia-glx
[07:22] <Lgndryhr> b/c i just installed the newest nvidia driver the other day on my system
[07:22] <foxjazz> Lgndryhr: ok, so let it be dude
[07:22] <n2diy> !ops
[07:22] <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
[07:22] <Lgndryhr> and i am getting tired of software update popping up to tell me an update is available
[07:22] <Madpilot> n2diy, ?
[07:22] <n2diy> bulmer
[07:22] <foxjazz> Lgndryhr: that su kas
[07:23] <Lgndryhr> anything i can do to stop it from trying to install it or update it
[07:23] <Lgndryhr> which ever the software update is trying to do
[07:23] <n2diy> Madpilot, bulmer
[07:23] <Lgndryhr> or do i need nvidia-glx
[07:23] <foxjazz> try the main upgrade from commandline. I forgot it, but that should take care of it: theoretically
[07:24] <Madpilot> n2diy, Hobbsee already got rid of it
[07:24] <n2diy> Madpilot, roger, roger.
[07:24] <Lgndryhr> huh?
[07:24] <defrysk> Lgndryhr, he means : sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[07:24] <Lgndryhr> yea i know i need to update my distro
[07:24] <Lgndryhr> i am on 6.10
[07:25] <Lgndryhr> havent had the time to run the update for 7 yet
[07:25] <foxjazz> yea do that dude
[07:25] <defrysk> Lgndryhr, whats your problem then ?
[07:25] <foxjazz> was the problem.
[07:25] <Lgndryhr> i want to know do i need nvidia-glx or is the nvidia driver one in the same or what
[07:25] <Lgndryhr> i did some reading but am confused
[07:25] <foxjazz> now I have a question... Is there an autocomplete type thing for files in terminal mode?
[07:26] <foxjazz> Lgndryhr: drink another beer
[07:26] <n2diy> foxjazz: tab key
[07:26] <Lgndryhr> lol.....i am not old enough for that
[07:26] <foxjazz> I will try tab key
[07:26] <defrysk> Lgndryhr, if you installed nvidia from the nvidia site we cannot support you
[07:26] <Lgndryhr> you're not listening to my question
[07:26] <johndoc> hi, i have a usb headset using the usb audio (obviously) and i can play my music in rythmbox but i can't heard audio from movies
[07:26] <n2diy> Lgndryhr: no problem, I'll cover for ya.
[07:29] <Rkuntz> Hey, I was wondering if I could get some help with g++ and the .out file that I get after compiling. I just got this book on c++ but can't find any information on how to execute the .out file in linux terminal
[07:29] <NegativeX> Hello, I'm trying to use openssh and make it run as a socks proxy and I think I have everything configured correctly however when I attempt to connect to a website it says done but nothing ever loads on the screen
[07:29] <foxjazz> Komodo edit rocks dude(s)
[07:29] <Jamesinator> NegativeX: OpenSSH is an SSH server. You can't connect to websites with it...
[07:30] <NegativeX> uhh according to everything online the -D flag makes it run as a socks proxy
[07:30] <n2diy> Rkuntz: there are 34 members in #gcc
[07:30] <aristos_achaion> Rkuntz: just type ./[filename]  when in the directory the .out file's in
[07:30] <Beriant> ive installed a few new programs and it seems the install went ok and nothings wrong,but i went to the directory where the programs are installed and i double click on the icon and nothing happens
[07:30] <Beriant> is there anything special i need to do for it to work
[07:30] <Nutubuntu> foxjazz, did you compile komodo or is it available in the reps?
[07:30] <james> IRC.420CHAN.ORG
[07:31] <Jamesinator> NegativeX: SOCKS is a protocol. Just because something can accept SOCKS connections doesn't mean you can use it as a web proxy.
[07:31] <foxjazz> Jamesinator: don't be so NegativeX
[07:31] <Rkuntz> Oh! thanks, I didn't see the listing on the ubuntu website
[07:31] <Fracture> NegativeX: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/449
[07:31] <Rkuntz> Thanks Aristos
[07:31] <jlund> How do I add a new user to the sudo group from the command line?
[07:32] <MISTERTibbs> !add user
[07:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about add user - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:32] <MISTERTibbs> !user
[07:32] <ubotu> To add new users to your Ubuntu system, follow the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddUsersHowto - For administrative privileges, users need to be made members of the group "admin" - See !sudo
[07:32] <NegativeX> Jamesinator: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto
[07:32] <NegativeX> its near the bottom
[07:32] <Rkuntz> quit thanks!

[07:32] <ubotu> jlund: please see above
[07:32] <n2diy> jlund: check out the man page for addusr or adduser
[07:33] <jlund> Right, the user already exists
[07:33] <jlund> !sudo
[07:33] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.

[07:34] <stupidgirl> hi everyone i have abot 10000 mp3s on a windows box on my network, what would be the best app to index them all and play them from a kubuntu machine,
[07:34] <adante> hi, i have an eth0:avah connection <-- what does this mean exactly?
[07:34] <peepsalot> what package do i need for wmv codecs? is this in the repos?
[07:34] <adante> is this some sort of alias?
[07:34] <freeconn> Everything I have found so far relates to edubuntu or ubuntu 5
[07:34] <MISTERTibbs> stupidgirl??, why not just add the windows location to your player library
[07:34] <pike__> stupidgirl: amarok will do this for you
[07:34] <NegativeX> Fracture: I set it to port 8000 and localhost in firefox. it attempts to use it and it appears to work however nothing ever loads in the browser
[07:34] <defrysk> !restricted > peepsalot
[07:35] <pike__> !w32codecs | peepsalot
[07:35] <ubotu> peepsalot: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[07:35] <Nutubuntu> foxjazz, did you compile komodo or is it available in the reps somewhere (I don't see it)?
[07:35] <stupidgirl> hmm ok thanks pike__ i do remember using amarok a while back but it seemed to struggle with it
[07:35] <Jamesinator> NegativeX: I finished reading the link you gave me and the info for the -D option, and personally, I think you're mistaken about the capabilities of what you're trying to do. In any case, good luck.
[07:36] <Truman> Where does something generally go when you apt-get install it?
[07:36] <preaction> Truman: the executables go into /usr/bin usually
[07:36] <MISTERTibbs> Truman, depends on what was installed
[07:36] <Nutubuntu> n/m foxjazz - found the info I needed
[07:37] <n2diy> Truman:  /something?/apt/cache
[07:37] <TheCreationist> Is there any way to configure my gnome panel to close an application when I middle click it's button in the taskbar?
[07:37] <Truman> heh, Alright, thanks
[07:39] <Truman> Does anyone know how qsynaptics works?
[07:39] <n2diy> Truman: qsynaptics, or synaptic?
[07:40] <stupidgirl> well all my mp3s, i get to them by typing smb://blahblah/ how can i get them to show in the file system? with the mount thingo?
[07:40] <scizzo-> you can mount the smb share to a folder
[07:40] <n2diy> stupidgirl: mount thingo is no longer supported. :)
[07:40] <aristos_achaion> stupidgirl: Do you have ntfsprogs installed? I'm assuming your windows partition is ntfs, not fat32
[07:41] <Truman> n2diy: qsynaptics; apparently it has the ability to simulate right/middle click when tapped with two or more fingers on a macbook, but I'm having trouble getting it to work
[07:41] <NegativeX> Jamesinator: Your last comment prompted me to reread the artical, and I found my mistake. I was filling in the http proxy field in firefox not the socks field. Just so you know it works now :)
[07:41] <stupidgirl> yes ntfs, it reads it fine i just need to be able to index it in amarok
[07:41] <Truman> n2diy:  wait, nevermind .. it did it once.  It seems very touchy
[07:41] <n2diy> Truman: Sorrow, I no nothing about it.
[07:41] <tommy_> Question: when installing feisty using alternate CD is cannot detect my cd drive, how do i make a floppy disk with the driver on it - because thats what it tells me to do.
[07:41] <Jamesinator> NegativeX: Congrats :)
[07:42] <stupidgirl> truman i hd to edit my gsynagptics gthing to make my touchpad wortk right eg scrolling etc
[07:42] <NegativeX> kinda cool to be able to do it all with just openssh
[07:42] <tim__> so i'm trying to get beryl to work.  i'm booted into xgl, beryl is started, but if i try to switch to the beryl windowmanager, it crashes and goes back to metacity.  compiz works, but looks just like metacity.  also, do i need a theme for emerald?  is that what's going wrong?  bc i cant seem to get any themes for emerald.
[07:42] <Truman> stupidgirl:  K, I think it's working now, just takes a very specific touch
[07:42] <Nutubuntu> Is there a "right" way to install a package that I've compiled (that is not in the repositories)? I want to use aptitude if possible so that I can uninstall cleanly later if I need to.
[07:43] <stupidgirl> truman you can change it i will look for teh webpage i used for info
[07:43] <n2diy> Nutubuntu: apt-get or synaptic?
[07:43] <Truman> stupidgirl:  I opened the configuration utility, is there another way?
[07:44] <stupidgirl> yeh i had tomanually edit some file
[07:44] <Jamesinator> Nutubuntu: Create your own .deb
[07:44] <shaneCO> Hey, I just switched from kubuntu to opensuse, and I'm now looking for a utility that I liked in Kubuntu that I don't remember the name of.  It was something you could use to share a folder through a port, so you could remotely access that folder... can anyone help me with it's name, or a comperable program?
[07:44] <preaction> Nutubuntu: to create your own .deb, try "checkinstall"
[07:45] <Jamesinator> !samba | shaneCO
[07:45] <Nutubuntu> Jamesinator,  yes, that's what I've done. Would like to install the .deb I've created, now, so as to be able to cleanly uninstall if need be.
[07:45] <ubotu> shaneCO: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[07:45] <adante> hi
[07:45] <adante> when i try to run synaptic now i get "timestamp too far in the future"
[07:45] <shaneCO> ooh... it wasn't samba, but if I can do it through the web, then that's the same thing
[07:45] <Jamesinator> Nutubuntu: Sorry, that's as far as my solid knowledge goes. You could look into dpkg though.
[07:45] <stupidgirl> is your date right adante
[07:46] <Jamesinator> !sshfs | shaneCO
[07:46] <Nutubuntu> Jamesinator,  no worries :) t/y anyway
[07:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sshfs - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:46] <feliciano> hi... I install ubuntu but i forgot asign /home to a partiton... and I wanna have this in a different partiton than / .... Exist any way to change the /home partition now??? after install ubuntu???
[07:46] <shaneCO> ooh it was KPF
[07:46] <Jamesinator> Nutubuntu: Good luck. :)
[07:46] <makuseru> are there any good flight simulators for linux?
[07:46] <Jamesinator> makuseru: gl-117
[07:46] <MISTERTibbs> makuseru, YES!  let me look up the name
[07:46] <makuseru> MISTERTibbs: ok
[07:47] <tommy_> how do i put my cd rom drivers on a floppy disk?
[07:47] <jscinoz> Hey guys, I can't start the Xserver, i just installed nvidia-glx but it says there is an API mismatch (the kernel module and the X module haave different versions) i've tried doing an apt-get --purge uninstall of nvidia-glx and then reinstalling it to no avail, what can i do to fix this?
[07:47] <foxjazz> tommy_:  How many cd rom drivers do you have?
[07:47] <MISTERTibbs> makuseru, X-Plane, www.x-plane.com
[07:48] <makuseru> MISTERTibbs: thanks
[07:48] <Sonicadvance1> I found out what was wrong with Ubuntu trying to install
[07:48] <tommy_> i only have one cd/dvd burner
[07:48] <Sonicadvance1> :D
[07:48] <Nutubuntu> makuseru,  also ys-flight, flight gear ... google is your friend, friend :)
[07:48] <foxjazz> tommy_:  Does it work without a steering wheel?
[07:48] <jlund> jscinoz: Did you run nvidia-glx-enable?
[07:48] <Sonicadvance1> It seems that when an IDE and a SATA drive are both plugged in, it doesn't like playing nice with either one of them
[07:48] <feliciano> jsciinoz.. login and edit xorg.conf... change nvidia for nv
[07:48] <tommy_> what
[07:48] <TheCreationist> Is there any way to configure my gnome panel to close an application when I middle click it's button in the taskbar?
[07:49] <foxjazz> tommy_:  I figure the drivers need a steering wheel, to drive teh cd/dvd
[07:49] <adante> stupidgirl: yeah it is
[07:49] <tommy_> well duh..... of course it does
[07:49] <adante> stupidgirl: it may not have been right when i first started the comp and didn't have access to the net
[07:49] <rob_> hi everybody
[07:49] <stupidgirl> did u try rebooting
[07:50] <foxjazz> rob_: who's everybody?
[07:50] <neasteflorin> that's funny
[07:50] <rob_> evrybody=all in room
[07:50] <stupidgirl> hai rob
[07:50] <neasteflorin> has anyone tried Gutsy?
[07:50] <foxjazz> rob_: never heard of all in room either.
[07:50] <neasteflorin> is it any good?
[07:51] <ceil420> Is there a place I can see all the files that are needed for a cursor theme? I know I can just look at existing themes, but I have no idea what "sb_v_double_arrow" or "fleur" are :x Is there a site or something that describes them?
[07:51] <stupidgirl> why u gotta be a knob foxjazz
[07:51] <tommy_> When installing feisty alternate cd it cannot detect my cd/dvd drive and asks me to put the drivers on a floppy disk, how do i do this?
[07:51] <foxjazz> stupidgirl: turn me, oh turn me ON
[07:51] <stupidgirl> no thnx
[07:51] <neasteflorin> you download the drivers and copy theto the floppy
[07:51] <chump> hey do you guys know if Ubuntu is going to put its Tutorial videos from the conference streamed online?
[07:52] <tim__> so i'm trying to get beryl to work.  i'm booted into xgl, beryl is started, but if i try to switch to the beryl windowmanager, it crashes and goes back to metacity.  compiz works, but looks just like metacity.  also, do i need a theme for emerald?  is that what's going wrong?  bc i cant seem to get any themes for emerald.
[07:52] <tommy_> where can i download ATAPI cd/dvd drivers?
[07:52] <neasteflorin> tim_ that happens to me too
[07:52] <tim__> did you figure out a way to..fix it?
[07:52] <foxjazz> tommy_:  Probably from the cd manufacturer.
[07:52] <neasteflorin> that's why I'm trying to get a feel of Gutzy
[07:53] <p1ls> hey
[07:53] <tommy_> makes sense
[07:53] <neasteflorin> no
[07:53] <neasteflorin> i tried everything
[07:53] <p1ls> is there a way to fillter my 9090 zeus admin port?
[07:53] <neasteflorin> it's a bug in compiz window manager
[07:53] <foxjazz> tommy_: hmmm let me find some notes.
[07:53] <TheCreationist> Is there any way to configure my gnome panel to close an application when I middle click it's button in the taskbar?
[07:53] <neasteflorin> it's crazy in here
[07:54] <neasteflorin> The Creationist did you try Google
[07:54] <neasteflorin> ??
[07:54] <Sonicadvance1> Oops, closed xchat
[07:54] <stupidgirl> bugger
[07:54] <Sonicadvance1> Anyway, I think that needs to be fixed
[07:55] <neasteflorin> anyone using Gutsy?
[07:55] <Sonicadvance1> :P
[07:55] <p1ls> is there a way to fillter my 9090 zeus admin port?
[07:55] <bruenig> !gutsy
[07:55] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10). See https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2007-April/000276.html and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyReleaseSchedule - Roadmap and specifications: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/gutsy - Support in #ubuntu+1
[07:55] <foxjazz> tommy_: My cd/dvd just seems to work with Feisty.  No problems.
[07:55] <Sonicadvance1> Is Gutsy too much better than Feisty?
[07:55] <neasteflorin> it should be
[07:55] <neasteflorin> it's got compiz fusion
[07:55] <neasteflorin> and Pidgin
[07:56] <Sonicadvance1> I see
[07:56] <bruenig> neasteflorin, you can get those already
[07:56] <anandanbu> Sonicadvance1: without reasons it should be better than feisty
[07:56] <bruenig> you realize you don't have to wait for ubuntu to get around to bundling apps before getting them
[07:56] <Sonicadvance1> I haven't found a tutorial to be able to upgrade from Feisty to Gutsy
[07:56] <neasteflorin> and the stuff under the hood
[07:56] <tommy_> foxjazz: when im installing the feisty alternate cd it cannot detect my cd drive so i cannot continue, i need to put the driver on a floppy.
[07:56] <neasteflorin> new kernel
[07:56] <bruenig> neasteflorin, I have seen nearly nothing under the hood
[07:57] <neasteflorin> use sudo apt-get
[07:57] <bruenig> neasteflorin, look at the specifications they are incredibly underwhelming, no real under the hood improvements
[07:57] <holycow> gibbon isn't out yet .. you can't technically upgrade to it
[07:57] <anandanbu> Sonicadvance1: upgrade to gutsy only if you want to try with the bugs
[07:57] <Sonicadvance1> Right now I need to upgrade from the Feisty Beta to Feisty final :p
[07:57] <holycow> you can modify your repo list to say gibbon instead of feisty and tgotally hose your system however
[07:57] <holycow> you have been warned
[07:58] <Sonicadvance1> What bugs are there in Gutsy that you guys have seen then?
[07:58] <Nutubuntu> pidgin = gaim ?
[07:58] <makuseru> how do i install a .deb in a terminal?
[07:58] <neasteflorin> yes
[07:58] <bruenig> makuseru, dpkg -i
[07:58] <holycow> sudo dpkg -i package.deb
[07:58] <bruenig> pidgin has been out for 2 months or so
[07:58] <neasteflorin> the new version is called pidgin
[07:58] <makuseru> thanks
[07:58] <bruenig> it is already in 2.02
[07:58] <Sonicadvance1> Gaim had to change it's name because of AIM right?
[07:58] <neasteflorin> yes
[07:58] <ceil420> yes
[07:58] <neasteflorin> they sued gaim
[07:58] <Nutubuntu> laim
[07:59] <Sonicadvance1> Meh, still using Gaim :P
[07:59] <neasteflorin> me too
[07:59] <Sonicadvance1> and I don't care for Xchat-gnome
[07:59] <bruenig> dont use xchat-gnome
[07:59] <bruenig> use xchat
[07:59] <neasteflorin> i tried pidgin but i didn't have tls support
[07:59] <Sonicadvance1> I know
[07:59] <foxjazz> wow, they sued a 14 year old kid?
[07:59] <ceil420> i got pidgin, but i never use it, cos to my knowledge it doesn't have xfire support :x
[07:59] <Sonicadvance1> haah
[07:59] <anandanbu> foxjazz: who sued sho
[08:00] <Sonicadvance1> Aol would have had to sue Gaim
[08:00] <Sonicadvance1> don't think it would be the other way around
[08:00] <bruenig> they didn't sue, they threatened to sue
[08:00] <anandanbu> oh
[08:00] <Sonicadvance1> haha
[08:00] <neasteflorin> how's your desktop look like? mine is like mac os x: http://flickr.com/photos/neasteflorin/
[08:00] <chump> yeah cause GAIM is still in the reposites as gaim if they were sued it would ahve been changed
[08:00] <ceil420> i use a theme of my own design
[08:00] <Sonicadvance1> Anyone know when Mac Minis with Core 2 Duos are coming out?
[08:01] <foxjazz> I hate AOHELL anyway
[08:01] <mytoaster> hello everyone im back again
[08:01] <chump> Sonicadvance1 no but i know i'll never be able to afford them
[08:01] <Nutubuntu> w/b mytoaster
[08:01] <ceil420> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=377397&page=6 second post
[08:01] <mytoaster> im having more troubles
[08:01] <bruenig> here is my desktop: http://youtube.com/watch?v=-5wOv-U7UHk
[08:01] <Sonicadvance1> Ha, I want to buy one because they are nice and tiny and I like the case
[08:01] <foxjazz> I told my family that if I found out anyone was using aohell, I would disown them.
[08:02] <ceil420> heh
[08:02] <ceil420> better AOL than MSN
[08:02] <ceil420> *cough*
[08:02] <Sonicadvance1> I heard you can replace the current Mac Mini's CPU with a Core 2 Duo that has a memron core and it's socket M
[08:02] <mytoaster> ok.. my monitor keep stelling me that its signal is out of range.. never had this problem before
[08:02] <foxjazz> I use trillian (yahoo)... And msn messenger with trill
[08:02] <neasteflorin> mytoaster check the cooling on the graphics or open the cas
[08:02] <arbeck23> i have a line that mounts a samba share in my fstab... when i boot it fails... but if i do a umount of the dir, and then mount -a it works
[08:02] <Nutubuntu> mytoaster,  first thing you'll need is the monitor's specs for vertical and horizontal ... what'sitcalled. refresh rate?
[08:03] <holycow> your refresh rates are wrong for your monitor modcel and make.  google the correct values and input the into ytour xorg.conf file
[08:03] <mytoaster> cooling should be fine
[08:03] <holycow> then restart gdm or x
[08:03] <mytoaster> i have the correct values
[08:03] <foxjazz> anyone know where I can get vpn cisco (open source client)
[08:03] <rob_> I'm still running dapper 6.06.1 .... feisty seems too buggy
[08:03] <mytoaster> its 1024 x whatever else at 60 mhz
[08:03] <holycow> your monitor seems to disagree
[08:03] <neasteflorin> bif he never had this problem it couldn'jave been x config
[08:03] <holycow> actually thats a guarantee they aren't the correct value
[08:03] <rob_> on my old heap o junk gateway
[08:03] <Nutubuntu> mytoaster,  that's not the spec you're looking for
[08:04] <holycow> especially if you have only 60hz available as an option
[08:04] <arbeck23> mytoaster, try 60hz
[08:04] <mytoaster> i was using 60hgz
[08:04] <raddy> Hello Everybody
[08:04] <neasteflorin> that's impossible
[08:04] <raddy> My Desktop edge is not exact fit,
[08:04] <neasteflorin> unless you work for the nsa
[08:05] <raddy> is there an utility to correct it?
[08:05] <Sonicadvance1> 789 packages I have to download :P
[08:05] <mytoaster> is it somthing with X i need to configure or somthing?
[08:05] <Nutubuntu> mytoaster, yes, most likely
[08:05] <mytoaster> what would i need to do then
[08:06] <arbeck23> can anyone help me with fstab?
[08:06] <Nutubuntu> mytoaster, look up your monitor's specs; you will find specs for vert and horiz sync
[08:06] <bruenig> !anyone | arbeck23
[08:06] <ubotu> arbeck23: 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?
[08:06] <Nutubuntu> mytoaster, these will be in the form of ranges, for example, vertical sync 60-110 kHz (I made this up, check your actual specs)
[08:06] <arbeck23> i can't seem to mount a samba share on boot
[08:07] <arbeck23> it just times out, and then says the device is busy for any operation but umount
[08:07] <arbeck23> but after that, i can mount -a and it's all good
[08:07] <neasteflorin> going to bed. cya folks
[08:07] <Nutubuntu> be well neasteflorin
[08:07] <raddy> My Desktop edge is not exact fit,
[08:07] <raddy> is there an utility to correct it?
[08:07] <bruenig> !repeat | raddy
[08:07] <ubotu> raddy: 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
[08:08] <p1ls> guys
[08:08] <p1ls> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[08:08] <p1ls> what should i do
[08:08] <bruenig> raddy, reconfigure, x you can find the config file at /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:08] <rob_> ubuntuforums.org is a good place to get answers
[08:08] <mytoaster> so ineed to find the vertical and horizontal sync?
[08:08] <bruenig> p1ls, I say to manually run sudo dpkg --configure -a
[08:09] <raddy> bruenig : thank you for your kind advise, i was unsure whether people seeing my question. thats why
[08:09] <rob_> i use it all the time
[08:09] <Nutubuntu> mytoaster,  yes
[08:09] <bruenig> I can understand when the messages are so cryptic
[08:09] <Flannel> p1ls: run dpkg --configure -a
[08:09] <arbeck23> bruenig, see no one can help :P
[08:09] <mytoaster> kk let me go look for it
[08:09] <raddy> bruenig: screen location can be configured only by seeing, not by mere text editing.
[08:10] <p1ls> thx
[08:10] <bruenig> raddy, sure it can, anything can be done by text editing
[08:10] <Elliot_M> im having a issue deleting a file it says i dont have permission to change the folder

[08:10] <Elliot_M> ?
[08:10] <bruenig> Elliot_M, open the terminal and do it using sudo

[08:12] <mytoaster> k thanks
[08:12] <bruenig> mytoaster, it is truly awful though so don't expect much
[08:12] <mytoaster> it has what im looking for on there
[08:12] <Flannel> Elliot_M: sudo rm -rf /path/to/folder
[08:12] <bruenig> people are more interested in added documentation to their blogs than to a wiki
[08:12] <owh> Can anyone suggest a tool that will allow me to create an animation. OO-presenter exports to SWF, but it does not automatically switch to the next slide and it also doesn't do transitions in the export.
[08:12] <bruenig> adding*
[08:12] <mytoaster> just trying to figure out how to install plugins for firefox
[08:13] <bruenig> mytoaster, which plugin
[08:13] <raddy> bruenig: the settings can be saved as text, np, but for setting exact fit, i have see the output while configuring
[08:13] <ste-foy> heum, j'vais aller dodoter moi
[08:13] <mytoaster> pdf
[08:13] <bruenig> raddy, set it, test it, tweak

[08:13] <bruenig> !find acroread

[08:14] <ubotu> Package mozilla-acroread does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[08:14] <bruenig> what is the name of that
[08:14] <mytoaster> umm.. give me asec
[08:14] <ste-foy> sorrry Flannel I did a /amsg
[08:14] <bruenig> no not you, the name of the package
[08:14] <ste-foy> -r
[08:14] <mytoaster> adobe reader
[08:14] <bruenig> yeah I know that
[08:15] <raddy> bruenig: what have to be customized in xorg file to move desktop area?
[08:15] <bruenig> here you can learn more this way, do apt-cache show adobe
[08:15] <bruenig> here you can learn more this way, do apt-cache search adobe
[08:15] <bruenig> raddy, not sure, read the docs
[08:15] <Elliot_M> i just typed in something and everything on my desktop dissapered
[08:16] <bruenig> raddy, I believe screen location is a hardware thing, press the buttons on the monitor and whatnot
[08:16] <Elliot_M> how do i undo a terminal affect
[08:16] <bruenig> Elliot_M, you don't
[08:16] <mytoaster> i would do that bruenig but my monitor wont stay on long enough for me to do anything.. so i guess im searching on this computer
[08:16] <Elliot_M> i cnt undo ne thing
[08:16] <Elliot_M> ?
[08:16] <raddy> bruenig: it can be adjust using modelines, but there is no reference file to modify
[08:16] <bruenig> mytoaster, how are you going to use the plugin if you don't have a monitor
[08:17] <bruenig> /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:17] <mytoaster> 56-76Hz vertical, 30-83kHz horizontal thats hwat i found
[08:17] <mytoaster> my monitor on my linux machine stays on for about 5 6 min
[08:17] <bruenig> those are refresh rates
[08:18] <bruenig> mytoaster, again I ask what your infatuation with adobe plugin is if you don't have a monitor
[08:18] <Nutubuntu> okay mytoaster,  next you back up your xorg.conf file: In a terminal window, 'sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup' (no quotes marks, and the X in X11 is capitalized)
[08:18] <mytoaster> i was trying to look up the monitro specs on my linux machine
[08:18] <makuseru> Sonicadvance1: i doubt it, since apple is so anal about people buying their and only their hardware
[08:19] <Elliot_M> Serias issue lost everything on my desktop through a terminal how can i undo it?
[08:19] <bruenig> mytoaster, ok well anyways since you are utterly confusing, if you wish to install a plugin, you do it like you install anything else, package management
[08:19] <bruenig> apt
[08:19] <chump> hey bruenig how do you get your Alt + Tab function to spin like that?
[08:19] <bruenig> Elliot_M, you can't
[08:19] <defrysk> Elliot_M, if you user rm command its gone for good
[08:19] <mytoaster> ya im not going to work on that until i get my monitor fixed i guess
[08:19] <bruenig> chump, called desktop ring or something
[08:19] <mytoaster> but anyway im having a hard time finding the sync rates for my type of monitor
[08:20] <chump> is it in beryl plug in listing?
[08:20] <bruenig> chump, it is in the window management section under application switcher, called Ring in the bindings part
[08:20] <Elliot_M> great thnx i lost everything
[08:20] <Nutubuntu> mytoaster, thought you found them, 56-76Hz vertical, 30-83kHz horizontal?
[08:20] <bruenig> Elliot_M, what command did you do
[08:21] <bruenig> Elliot_M, don't do commands that you don't understand, be glad you only lost desktop stuff
[08:21] <_Iamda> when I leave my PC, Is it ok to just shut down my monitor, for 6 hours ,or 3 days?
[08:21] <mytoaster> would this be it Max Sync Rate (V x H)	76 Hz x 81 kHz
[08:21] <Elliot_M> /home/elliot/Desktop
[08:21] <preaction> _lamda: perfectly okay
[08:21] <Elliot_M> i used thar rm
[08:21] <Elliot_M> command
[08:21] <bruenig> Elliot_M, what was the exact command
[08:21] <Elliot_M> cause i wanted to get rid of that one folder
[08:22] <_Iamda> thank you, it wont hurt anything?
[08:22] <preaction> Elliot_M: that folder holds the things on your desktop
[08:22] <bruenig> Elliot_M, did you do rm -rf Desktop
[08:22] <preaction> _lamda: i leave all my computers on all the time
[08:22] <defrysk> Elliot_M, to set up the folder stuff seen or not seen on your desktop the gtweakui package
[08:22] <mytoaster> ok now that i have the syn rates how am i suppose to use them to help me?
[08:22] <Nutubuntu> mytoaster, the ranges are what you want (e.g., 56-76Hz if that was correct)
[08:22] <Elliot_M>  sudo rm -rf /path/to/folder
[08:23] <Elliot_M> but the path to folder wasd desktop
[08:23] <Nutubuntu> mytoaster,  next you back up your xorg.conf file: In a terminal window, 'sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup' (no quotes marks, and the X in X11 is capitalized)
[08:23] <defrysk> Elliot_M, learning curve ;)
[08:23] <chump> thanks Bruenig
[08:23] <bruenig> Elliot_M, ok and you understood that rm -rf removes folders, and you removed your desktop folder
[08:23] <bruenig> therefore everything on your desktop is removed
[08:23] <Elliot_M> watr does that mean?
[08:23] <bruenig> !english | Elliot_M
[08:23] <ubotu> Elliot_M: The #ubuntu, #kubuntu and #xubuntu channels are English only. For a complete list of channels in other languages, please visit http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat
[08:24] <Elliot_M> wat does that mean i lost my desktop folder
[08:24] <Flannel> Elliot_M: It means that the command did exactly what you told it to do.  Removed your Desktop
[08:24] <Elliot_M> ?
[08:24] <bruenig> Elliot_M, you removed it, you deleted it
[08:24] <MFen> what's a good channel to ask about wubi?
[08:24] <Flannel> Elliot_M: yes.  You deleted your Desktop folder.
[08:24] <defrysk> Elliot_M, you deleted your desktop
[08:24] <MajorPayne> Elliot_M: Everything that you had on your Desktop is gone.
[08:24] <Elliot_M> nd now what
[08:25] <defrysk> Elliot_M, sudo mkdir /home/Yourusername/Desktop
[08:25] <owh> Elliot_M: Perhaps it helps to know that the only things on your desktop are those represented by icons. This is generally not all your documents.
[08:25] <makuseru> !flightgear
[08:25] <bruenig> not sudo
[08:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about flightgear - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:25] <bruenig> sudo well make it owned by root
[08:25] <Flannel> Elliot_M: now... nothing.  Learn from your mistakes, and don't make them again.
[08:25] <Elliot_M>  sudo mkdir /home/Yourusername/Desktop  whats this command
[08:25] <owh> Elliot_M: Of course you had a recent backup of your machine :)
[08:26] <Nutubuntu> mytoaster, check that the backup exists: 'ls /etc/X11/xorg.*
[08:26] <MFen> some people believe that because they don't know how to do a thing, it must be impossible
[08:26] <bruenig> Elliot_M, don't do that, do mkdir ~/Desktop
[08:26] <bruenig> Elliot_M, mkdir is make directory, it will make yourr Desktop directory again
[08:26] <erikja> !vnc
[08:26] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[08:26] <Elliot_M> whats the full command
[08:26] <mytoaster> alright copied the file
[08:26] <owh> mkdir ~/Desktop
[08:27] <bruenig> Elliot_M, mkdir ~/Desktop
[08:27] <Nutubuntu> mytoaster, check that the backup exists: 'ls /etc/X11/xorg.*'
[08:27] <mytoaster> yea its there
[08:27] <Nutubuntu> Okay mytoaster  ... next step is to edit xorg.conf:  gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:28] <keziamatt> Do you need to burn the .ISO on to a disc to install?
[08:28] <Flannel> !install | keziamatt
[08:28] <ubotu> keziamatt: 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
[08:28] <Flannel> keziamatt: there are alternatives.  That first link gives details if you're looking to avoid burning
[08:28] <Nutubuntu> mytoaster, are you needing to work working from a command line? or can you use a GUI editor like gedit for a bit?
[08:28] <owh> keziamatt: No, the .ISO can be mounted.
[08:29] <crolle17> i have question concerning vi. i edited a file with gedit. opening that file with vi again there is a '^M' at the end of every line. i wanted to delete them by regexp with :%s/^M/. but regexp returns that this pattern is not found.
[08:29] <crolle17> how to delete them?
[08:29] <mytoaster> well i started ubunut in the command line but gedit opened
[08:30] <mytoaster> but there was nothing int here
[08:30] <mytoaster> so im going to see how far i can get before my monitory messes up again
[08:30] <Nutubuntu> mytoaster, you  can use nano instead of gedit and avoid the whole gui issue if need be
[08:30] <Flannel> crolle17: ^ is an anchor when at the beginning.  Try /\^M/
[08:30] <preaction> crolle17: that's actually a Ctrl+M i believe. you're better off making a macro that deletes the last character of the line
[08:30] <MajorPayne> crolle17: http://www.vim.org/tips/tip.php?tip_id=26
[08:31] <crolle17> Flannel, i'll try it.
[08:31] <makuseru> hi, i installed a program, and i cant find it at all now, search turns up noting, ive looked through usr/bin and its not there, where could it be?
[08:31] <Flannel> crolle17: also, to remove, you need an additional slash at the end (to have a null replace text s/Needle/Replace/
[08:31] <Hizzeh> Is there anything I need to install prior to ndiswrapper util besides ndiswrapper common debian?
[08:31] <mgedmin> crolle17: :%s/
[08:31] <owh> makuseru: Which programme?
[08:31] <mgedmin> err..
[08:31] <mgedmin> crolle17: :%s/\r/
[08:31] <makuseru> owh: Flightgear
[08:31] <Hizzeh> Because it says I need something else
[08:31] <yhj> 
[08:31] <owh> makuseru: It's called: fgfs
[08:32] <J-_> makuseru: sudo find /
[08:32] <J-_> gah
[08:32] <J-_> makuseru: sudo find / | grep filename
[08:32] <owh> makuseru: And the way I found that was by typing: apropos flight
[08:32] <makuseru> ah
[08:32] <mytoaster> ok i have xorg.conf opend in gedit
[08:32] <owh> J-_: Nah, the executable isn't logical :)
[08:32] <J-_> ah
[08:32] <J-_> =o
[08:33] <mytoaster> what am i looking for now
[08:33] <crolle17> mgedmin, that was the solution. thank you.
[08:33] <pimp31415> mm
[08:33] <jeremysandau> Hi all.  I installed a program with wine, and when I tried to uninstall it with the command "wine uninstaller" i selected the program and it said it uninstalled, but the program is still in my Applications menu and I cannot reinstall the program.  Any suggestions?
[08:33] <pimp31415> anyone know how to show fps with beryl?
[08:33] <Nutubuntu> mytoaster, find Section "Monitor" and look for "Horizsync" and "VertRefresh" (they may not be there yet though)  -- find: Section "Monitor"
[08:33] <pimp31415> jeremysandau, i usually just delete the .wine directory
[08:33] <pimp31415> but that means you have to reinstall everything
[08:34] <pimp31415> sorry =/
[08:34] <pimp31415> i'm sure there's a much better way
[08:34] <mytoaster> the horiz sync and vert synz arent there
[08:34] <J-_> !xorg > J-_
[08:34] <mytoaster> just identifier and option
[08:34] <foomanchew> hey how do I get to play Divx on Ubuntu ?
[08:35] <foomanchew> I tried using VLC and MPlayer
[08:35] <foomanchew> no worky
[08:35] <Nutubuntu> mytoaster, n/p - add them: HorizSync  (and the range of horizontal sync you looked up) and then VertRefresh (and the vert ref. you looked up)
[08:35] <kom0dor> Hey everyone.
[08:35] <foomanchew> it freaken disturbing

[08:35] <foomanchew> thanks pimp31415
[08:35] <Hizzeh> is 7.04 fiesty?
[08:35] <Flannel> Hizzeh: yes
[08:36] <pimp31415> np foomanchew
[08:36] <mytoaster> so is it HorizSync or HorizontalSync?
[08:36] <Hizzeh> alrighty, I read that linksys wireless adapters are automatically found by fiesty, but that's not the case for me. Can anyone shed some light on this?
[08:36] <kom0dor> erm, I was trying to install feisty fawn, and the livecd booted into some 640x480 resolution which the install script couldn't be used in, has anybody had this happen?
[08:36] <Nutubuntu> mytoaster,  HorizSync and VertRefresh - the capitalization doesn't matter but the spelling does
[08:37] <mytoaster> kk.. how do i open ubuntu in just console
[08:37] <mytoaster> just he plain black and wihte console
[08:37] <jeremysandau> pimp31415, thank you
[08:37] <Nutubuntu> mytoaster,  ctl-alt-f1 will take you to a console
[08:38] <MajorPayne> mytoaster: ctl-alt-f7 should bring you back.
[08:39] <Nutubuntu> t/y MajorPayne - I should have added that
[08:39] <Hizzeh> alrighty, I read that linksys wireless adapters are automatically found by fiesty, but that's not the case for me. Can anyone shed some light on this?
[08:40] <sjoerd_> Hi, i want to move my home dir to another partition how should i do that?
[08:40] <mytoaster> ok how do i save this in nano
[08:40] <MajorPayne> mythos: ctrl-o
[08:40] <Nutubuntu> mytoaster,  I think it's ctl-o to write out your changed file ... should be prompts at bottom of screen
[08:41] <mytoaster> k thanks lets see if this works
[08:42] <kom0dor> sjoerd use the mount command, and add a line in fstab to have it mount on startup?
[08:42] <Hizzeh> When people say "Go to a direct and type "$sudo make uninstall"
[08:42] <Hizzeh> What do they mean by that?
[08:43] <sjoerd_> hizzeh, i think directory
[08:43] <keziamatt> I have mounted the .ISO, and I am at the menu, what do I do now?
[08:43] <Hizzeh> Where do I type that?
[08:43] <kom0dor> sjoerd http://www.die.net/doc/linux/man/man8/mount.8.html
[08:43] <sjoerd_> kom0dor, how should i use the mount command?
[08:43] <sjoerd_> k thx :)
[08:43] <Nutubuntu> kill dragon
[08:43] <kom0dor> no problem.
[08:43] <keziamatt> Help....
[08:44] <Hizzeh> is there the ULTIMATE getting started guide? Ubuntu is my first linux distro ever and I just started today

[08:44] <keziamatt> I have mounted the .ISO, and I am at the menu, what do I do now?
[08:44] <RivaeAerya> I have a little problem. My clock is out-of-sync all the time and i think it's because i have a dual-boot with Windows. How do I fix this?
[08:44] <defrysk> Hizzeh, help.ubuntu.com
[08:44] <Hizzeh> I have absolutely no idea how to install ndiswrapper to get my WUSB54GSC linksys wireless adapter working
[08:44] <Hizzeh> alrighty
[08:44] <Flannel> !wifi | Hizzeh
[08:44] <ubotu> Hizzeh: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[08:44] <Nutubuntu> RivaeAerya,  you can set the computer to sync with one or more timeservers - would that help?
[08:44] <RivaeAerya> Nutubuntu: maybe
[08:45] <kom0dor> /msh ubotu
[08:45] <Nutubuntu> RivaeAerya,  if you want to do that, right-click on the time-and-date display in the panel, and choose Preferences from the context menu
[08:45] <kom0dor> oops :/
[08:46] <sjoerd_> kom0dor, i already mounted my partition, what should i type in fstab
[08:46] <mytoaster> kk ill brb im signing on here on my linux computer
[08:46] <mytoaster_> hi
[08:47] <RivaeAerya> Nutubuntu: alright that helped, kinda, but i heard something about conflicts with the "local" timezone and the UTC one
[08:47] <Nutubuntu> w/b mytoaster_ how goes it?
[08:47] <mytoaster_> so far so good
[08:47] <kom0dor> sjoerd http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html
[08:47] <mytoaster_> i was able to install xchat without my monitor dieing on me
[08:47] <dinamizadorcomar> alguien me puede decir cul es el canal ubuntu en espaa??
[08:47] <Nutubuntu> RivaeAerya,  my mistake - you want 'Adjust Time & Date' not Prefs
[08:47] <Myrtti> !es | dinamizadorcomar
[08:47] <ubotu> dinamizadorcomar: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[08:47] <Nutubuntu> very cool, mytoaster_ :)
[08:47] <Flannel> RivaeAerya: windows only knows how to use the system time as local time.  What you need to do, in timezone configs, there's a "use system time as local time" or osmething like that option (checkbox).  You should check that.
[08:48] <dinamizadorcomar> #ubuntu-es
[08:48] <kom0dor> I just, heh, googled it. I'd add something like:
[08:48] <kom0dor> /dev/drive/here /dir/here auto auto
[08:48] <Myrtti> dinamizadorcomar: /join #ubuntu-es
[08:48] <mytoaster_> ya thanks a lot for your help Nutubuntu
[08:48] <mytoaster_> and everyone else
[08:48] <dinamizadorcomar> muchas gracias

[08:49] <keziamatt> I just need help can someone PM me?
[08:49] <Nutubuntu> mytoaster_,  there is a useful guide to configuring X at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x-config.html (or at least I thought it was useful)
[08:49] <jeremysandau> Can somebody help me with my uninstallation of Wine?  I uninstalled it and also deleted the .wine folder under Home, yet Wine still remains under my Applications list.  Can anybody help me remove it from my Applications menu?
[08:49] <teratoma> Syntux : downloading in what ?
[08:49] <mytoaster_> takes a couple of weeks but you have the cd
[08:49] <Myrtti> !anyone | keziamatt, please be more precise
[08:49] <keziamatt> Can someone please PM me
[08:49] <ubotu> keziamatt, please be more precise: 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?
[08:49] <keziamatt> Myritti
[08:50] <mytoaster_> keziamatt did you download the .iso?
[08:50] <keziamatt> yes
[08:50] <mytoaster_> you should burn it to a cd
[08:50] <Nutubuntu> Good night all - be good to one another peeps :)
[08:50] <keziamatt> Alright
[08:50] <Myrtti> keziamatt: there are plenty of people willing to help if you only be more precise with your problems and elaborate a bit
[08:50] <mytoaster_> night nutbunutu
[08:50] <keziamatt> How do I make my computer boot from CD?
[08:50] <sjoerd_> kom0dor, okay but in fstab i dont find anything about my home dir?
[08:51] <kom0dor> /dev/drive/here /home auto auto
[08:51] <keziamatt> OK, I have mounted and opened the .ISO file.
[08:51] <mytoaster_> you have to burn the iso image to a cd and then use it basicly.. hol don im looking for the tutorial i used a long time ago
[08:51] <keziamatt> Now I don't know what to do
[08:51] <jeremysandau> Can somebody help me with my uninstallation of Wine?  I uninstalled it and also deleted the .wine folder under Home, yet Wine still remains under my Applications list.  Can anybody help me remove it from my Applications menu?
[08:51] <slugicid1> My multimedia is totally shanked.  totem freezes, vlc unresponsive, democracy player crashes.  I want to blame it on automatix...  How do I go about fixing it?
[08:51] <MajorPayne> keziamatt: That is different for a lot of computers.  If you watch the screen you should see a key like "press <button> for boot device".
[08:51] <Flannel> jeremysandau: How did you uninsall wine?
[08:51] <Twangly> keziamatt: I would suggest trying wubi
[08:51] <kom0dor> that will mount the /dev/partition to /home auto [automatically configure filesystem type]  auto [automatically mount on boot] 
[08:51] <Hizzeh> Under comments for my linksys wireless adapter, it says "First remove islsm_usb then remove and add back ndiswrapper". I'm not sure what that means. Can anyone please help me? Right now I don't have internet for when I boot up in Ubuntu because it won't detect the wireless adapter (WUSB54GSC)
[08:51] <mytoaster_> keziamatt you are on windows righ tnow right?
[08:52] <Flannel> jeremysandau: if you used synaptic, go back and mark it for "complete removal", if you used apt get, remove it again with --purge.
[08:52] <sjoerd_> kom0dor, so in my case:    /Dev/sdc1/Data/sjoerd      << that must be my new home directory                on the moment it is  home/sjoerd (but dont find that in fstab)
[08:52] <kom0dor> /dev/drive/here /home/sjoerd auto auto
[08:52] <kom0dor> /dev/sdc1 /home/sjoerd auto auto
[08:53] <kom0dor> that will mount /home/sjoerd onto /dev/sdc1
[08:53] <jeremysandau> Flannel, what do you mean by " - - purge "
[08:53] <Flannel> jeremysandau: `apt-get remove --purge wine`
[08:53] <sjoerd_> k thx
[08:53] <kom0dor> it'll be case sensitive, though, so not "/Dev" but "/dev"
[08:54] <sjoerd_> k im going to try that now
[08:54] <kom0dor> have to go, bbl. :p
[08:54] <kom0dor> good luck. try googling for answers if you can't find them.
[08:54] <mytoaster_> whast the kde desktop package called
[08:54] <jeremysandau> Flannel, it says "E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[08:54] <jeremysandau> "
[08:54] <jeremysandau> and
[08:54] <jeremysandau> "E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
[08:54] <jeremysandau> "
[08:54] <mytoaster_> in synaptic
[08:55] <Flannel> jeremysandau: close whatever other package managers you have open, and don't paste here.
[08:55] <jeremysandau> oh, sorry.
[08:55] <sjoerd_> kom0dor, btw on the partition where i want my home dir are already some files is that a pb?
[08:55] <jeremysandau> I have no other package managers running though.
[08:56] <richee> hi folks, I am not able to force 1024X768 resolution on Ubuntu 7.04. It installed with a resolution of 640 X 480
[08:56] <Flannel> jeremysandau: and this is via synaptic?  Try apt-get, `sudo apt-get remove --purge wine`
[08:56] <jeremysandau> Flannel, ok i tried "purge" a second time and it said that it could not remove it because it was not installed.
[08:57] <jeremysandau> But i still have Wine under my Applications menu.
[08:57] <richee> I also edited xorg.conf but in vain :(
[08:57] <preaction> jeremysandau: use Applications > Menu Editor to remove it?
[08:57] <jeremysandau> preaction:  where do i find Menu Editor?
[08:58] <preaction> jeremysandau: last i knew it was under Accessories
[08:58] <jeremysandau> preaction:  and if it isn't there?
[08:59] <Flannel> jeremysandau: Er.  wait, if your apt-get just worked, fire up synaptic.  And check for wine.  Removing it completely should remove the menu entries.
[08:59] <preaction> jeremysandau: system > preferences > menu layout
[08:59] <kraut> moin
[08:59] <owh> jeremysandau: First of all, log off and log back in again. It is likely that the menu has been updated already.
[08:59] <jeremysandau> Flannel, i have already used Synaptics and removed it completely, then restarted, but it still remained.
[09:00] <jeremysandau> owh:  I will try your advice; i will be right back.
[09:00] <owh> jeremysandau: Second, the reason the purge didn't work, is that it only works on installed packages. If you install it, then purge remove it, it will be gone.
[09:00] <sjoerd_> kom0dor, btw on the partition where i want my home dir are already some files is that a pb?
[09:00] <jeremysandau> ok.
[09:02] <mattthebaker> anyone know of that top of their head what service handles automounting of devices in feisty?
[09:03] <Myrtti> pmount?
[09:03] <EvilDennisR> mattthebaker: What do you mean by automounting?
[09:03] <mattthebaker> when i plug in my ipod, it pops up on the gnome desktop
[09:03] <EvilDennisR> like startup automounting? /etc/fstab
[09:03] <EvilDennisR> It doesn't do that already?
[09:04] <Dionnow> delete
[09:04] <mattthebaker> it does, the problem is that i use hfsplus, so it defaults ro, so i can't upload any music
[09:04] <cafuego> mattthebaker: udev
[09:04] <cafuego> mattthebaker: if you need hfsplus to be rw, you need to recompile the kernel.
[09:04] <mattthebaker> cafuego: the actual mounting is going on in udev?
[09:05] <mattthebaker> cafuego: hfsplus write support exists, it just defaults to ro since the version of hfsplus on my ipod is journaled, it was changed in 2.6.15 i think, since linux can't update the journal
[09:06] <cafuego> mattthebaker: No, that's done by gnome-volume-manager or somesuch
[09:06] <mattthebaker> i can get readwrite support by using the mount -force option
[09:06] <jeremysandau> What is the line to configure wine?
[09:06] <cafuego> ah, oh
[09:06] <mattthebaker> cafuego: yeah.. its a mess, it'll probably eventually lead to data loss, at which point i'll convert to vfat /sigh
[09:07] <sjoerd_> btw on the partition where i want my home dir are already some files is that a pb?
[09:07] <mattthebaker> cafuego: i'll look into gnome-volume-manager, thanks
[09:07] <cafuego> mattthebaker: on my iBook i need to rebuild the shared hfs+ /home with diskwarrior after every 4 or so boots
[09:07] <cafuego> needed
[09:08] <cafuego> gave up on it
[09:08] <EvilDennisR> I have a ATI Radeon X1300/X1550 I'm trying to get working.. Suggestions ? Point me in the direction of some howto docs ?
[09:08] <mattthebaker> cafuego: ouch
[09:09] <jeremysandau> Can somebody tell me what the command is to configure wine?
[09:09] <IMYojimbo> need help recovering a lost rar archive password
[09:09] <Erdaron> this may sound like a silly question... but how do I launch a shell script?
[09:10] <IMYojimbo> through the shell or the gui
[09:10] <astro76> jeremysandau, winecfg
[09:10] <Erdaron> IMYojimbo:  doesn't matter. It's supposed to check if I have all dependencies for the new ATI driver
[09:11] <Erdaron> so shell is better,  I don't know if it has gui output
[09:11] <redtygr> question, where in httpd.conf (or elsewhere) do I tell apache which directories to execute php scripts in
[09:11] <redtygr> I would like it to execute them anywhere under /var/www
[09:12] <Flannel> redtygr: We use the debian method of naming, httpd.conf isn't used at all.  That'd be a virtualhost specifc thing, so it's in a virtualhost in /etc/apache2/sites-available/
[09:12] <IMYojimbo> need help recovering a lost rar archive password??
[09:12] <Erdaron> EvilDennisR: http://ati.amd.com/support/drivers/linux/linux-radeon.html is a start, it also has a link to a wiki that has howtos
[09:12] <IMYojimbo> any famous software can helkp me?
[09:13] <clever> IMYojimbo: theres a large one called google:P
[09:13] <redtygr> flannel that's strange, it's httpd.conf that runs apache on this system
[09:13] <redtygr> and all the vhosts are defined under there
[09:13] <Flannel> redtygr: Are you using Ubuntu?
[09:13] <IMYojimbo> clever: yes, but u guys have experience. i thought u might know
[09:14] <IMYojimbo> clever: its hard to find a good open source software with all the windows shit around
[09:14] <clever> lol
[09:14] <clever> yeah
[09:14] <redtygr> flannel yes
[09:14] <clever> IMYojimbo: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rar may help
[09:14] <EvilDennisR> Erdaron: Elite.. wiki for specific ubuntu install/setup ?
[09:14] <Flannel> redtygr: I can't say I believe you.  You mustve followed one of those stupid "perfect setup" howtos or something.  Ubuntu has never used httpd.conf
[09:15] <Flannel> !install | EvilDennisR
[09:15] <ubotu> EvilDennisR: 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
[09:15] <Erdaron> EvilDennisR: it used to, I don't know if they've updated since the last driver release
[09:15] <EvilDennisR> Flannel: Erm... I was talking to Erdaron specifically about some video card stuff..
[09:15] <Erdaron> EvilDennisR: in fact, http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu
[09:15] <redtygr> flannel I can't say I care whether or not you believe me... I don't really have time to mess around, I inherited the setup
[09:16] <redtygr> thanks for the assistance though
[09:17] <Erdaron> EvilDennisR: also, I'd recommend doing a search on ubuntuforums.org for your card, and seeing if anyone has done it
[09:17] <Flannel> redtygr: well, by default Ubuntu runs php scripts in your document root.  All you have to do is instlal the proper packages.  However that won't work for you.  Since your config files are all messed up
[09:17] <redtygr> my suspicion is that the previous admin compiled from source and installed the system similar to a fc box
[09:18] <Erdaron> so yeah... how do I launch a shell script so it can do its thang?
[09:18] <EvilDennisR> launch what shell skript?
[09:19] <Flannel> redtygr: just adding the AddTypes for php scripts (and source) (and including the shared object) should do it.
[09:19] <Erdaron> EvilDennisR: I was asking the room :) but it's actually an ATI script that's supposed to check your machine to make sure you meet all pre-requisites for the drivers
[09:19] <redtygr> flannel addtypes is in there, php scripts execute in a vhosts/default directory, but nowhere else
[09:19] <chee> hey, how to setup my firewall in Ubuntu?
[09:20] <EvilDennisR> Erdaron: Oh.. Yeah, I know how to run scripts
[09:20] <EvilDennisR> Erdaron: I'm actually just in here trying to get this video ard working for a buddy of mine
[09:20] <chee> hi?
[09:20] <chee> hello?
[09:20] <EvilDennisR> chee: Hello!
[09:21] <chee> hi Evil
[09:21] <EvilDennisR> Word
[09:21] <EvilDennisR> Firewall? What about it.. Whatchu wanna do. Or are you thinking firewall in windows terms
[09:21] <Erdaron> chee: http://www.fs-security.com/ although it seems you don't really need it in Ubuntu
[09:22] <EvilDennisR> Yeah
[09:22] <Flannel> redtygr: You'll probably have better luck in #apache, I haven't dug around the configuration in ages
[09:22] <redtygr> flannel already in there, thank yo
[09:22] <Erdaron> EvilDennisR: could you tell me how to launch this script? Just clicking it doesn't do anything. Damn my years of windows and linux noobiness.
[09:22] <chee> I want to setup a port that the firewall ignore it.
[09:23] <EvilDennisR> Erdaron: sh ati-whatever.run
[09:23] <Erdaron> EvilDennisR: it's called check.sh
[09:23] <EvilDennisR> chmod +x check.sh; ./check.sh
[09:24] <chee> but It seems ubuntu dose not have firewall options.
[09:24] <EvilDennisR> chee: What do you want to do with a firewall?
[09:24] <EvilDennisR> chee: Again, are you thinking in windows terms of "protecting your computer" ?
[09:24] <chee> yes.
[09:24] <chee> is it a mistake?
[09:24] <sellur> Launching script :  Have you changed the permissions ( attributes) for the script to execute ?
[09:25] <redtygr> chee I would just leave it the way it is
[09:25] <EvilDennisR> chee: Yeah. I wouldn't worry about anything like that.
[09:25] <Erdaron> sellur: no... how do I do that?
[09:25] <chee> ok
[09:25] <redtygr> chee are you running a hardware router
[09:25] <chee> yes
[09:25] <EvilDennisR> Erdaron: Do what I said. chmod +x check.sh and then when you want to run it you just do ./check.sh or wherever it is.. /home/erdaron/check.sh
[09:26] <chee> my amule said that the kad is 'firewalled'
[09:26] <sellur> see Evil DennisR : chmod -
[09:26] <Scrocchiaus> problem with reboot
[09:27] <Scrocchiaus> i can close my computer but with it don t want reboot
[09:27] <EvilDennisR> sellur: I know how to use chmod, thanks though..
[09:27] <Erdaron> EvilDennisR: alright, that did it... but it says "not running from the console or do not have console ownership" even if I run it as sudo
[09:27] <EvilDennisR> Erdaron: Whats in your script ?
[09:28] <EvilDennisR> Don't flood the channel, find a pastebin
[09:28] <EvilDennisR> pastebin?
[09:28] <EvilDennisR> nopaste?
[09:28] <EvilDennisR> hmm... figured the bots would of caught that
[09:28] <Myrtti> !paste | EvilDennisR
[09:28] <ubotu> EvilDennisR: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:28] <EvilDennisR> there we go
[09:28] <EvilDennisR> Erdaron: Use the pastebin and lets see whats in your script
[09:29] <EvilDennisR> my guess is you don't have a #! /bin/sh
[09:29] <DanaG> Am I just imagining it, or does Xorg support compositing on S3 Savage?
[09:30] <Erdaron> EvilDennisR: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28302/
[09:31] <EvilDennisR> Erdaron: Oh, its that ati script
[09:31] <Erdaron> yeah
[09:31] <EvilDennisR> are you running it in an xterm, or on the console ?
[09:32] <Erdaron> EvilDennisR: I guess all it really needs is to check version of XFree86. Terminal from Applications / Accessories?
[09:32] <EvilDennisR> Erdaron: Run that thing on the console (ctrl+alt+F1), see what happens..
[09:33] <johnficca> can someone tell me a good PCI wireless card that works out of the box with WPA under ubuntu.
[09:35] <varka> johnficca: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported
[09:37] <Erdaron> weee that was fun trying to figure how to get back to the GUI :)
[09:37] <Gigs> I asked this before, but does anyone know how to deal with the apparently newer kernel Config parts in the ubuntu package?  There's a bunch of short config snippets, and then some longer arch ones that say not to edit them.
[09:38] <Erdaron> EvilDennisR: same thing happened :)
[09:38] <Gigs> The kernel compiling instructions on the ubuntu web site are apparently out of date
[09:38] <EvilDennisR> Erdaron: No idea
[09:38] <Erdaron> EvilDennisR: any other way I can check the version of XFree86?
[09:39] <EvilDennisR> Erdaron: Xfree86 is xorg now
[09:39] <yokobr> hi
[09:39] <yokobr> please
[09:39] <yokobr> im in trouble
[09:39] <DanaG> !ask
[09:39] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:39] <yokobr> ok.
[09:39] <macd> Erdaron, Xorg -version
[09:40] <yokobr> I'm trying to repair a broken package, samba, but i cant. It returns error 102
[09:40] <yokobr> I cant update it or even uninstall it
[09:40] <Znyp> hello
[09:41] <yokobr> but i need to repair it to upgrade my ubuntu
[09:41] <Erdaron> macd: thanks dude
[09:41] <macd> yokobr, from console, 'sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives' and 'sudo rm /var/cache/apt/partial'  then 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade wine"
[09:41] <varka> Erdaron: im sure there are shorter commands, but try: sudo dpkg -s xorg | grep Version
[09:41] <yokobr> wine?
[09:41] <varka> Erdaron: sry, didnt read macds post
[09:41] <macd> sorry samba.
[09:42] <yokobr> it on samba package
[09:42] <Znyp> I've downloaded ubuntu 7.04, but when I insert the cd and reboot - it starts ubuntu fine, but doesnt install it on the harddrive. Do I need to run a parameter or something to install it?
[09:42] <Erdaron> varka: Xorg -version did the trick :)
[09:42] <yokobr> yes, sir.
[09:42] <macd> yokobr, then do what I said, substituting samba for wine.
[09:42] <yokobr> it don let me rmove  /var/cache/apt/archives
[09:43] <astro76> Znyp, you need to double-click the install icon on the desktop to start the install
[09:43] <Cromag> Znyp: use the "install ubuntu" on the desktop
[09:43] <Cromag> astro76: sry
[09:43] <astro76> Cromag, no reason to be ;)
[09:44] <Cromag> i'll try not to then ;)
[09:44] <nalpha> guys.. please help, how to open port 445 in linux? I'm installing samba and after crash, my client can't connect again. I'm check samba daemon is running good, but checked with nmap the 445 port seems closed, how to open it?? please help for you all guys.
[09:44] <Erdaron> does firestarter reliably share an internet connection through an extra adapter?
[09:44] <Znyp> Cromag; Ok, thanks a lot. I'll go hit my head now.
[09:45] <chee> hi, how to check the established connection in the terminal please?
[09:45] <Cromag> Znyp: be carefull, you could break your eyes that way.
[09:45] <defcon> I need to know which settings file or folder system/preferences/"Sessions" uses because it does not save, My permissions seem to be wrong and I need to find the file/folder to fix the issue
[09:45] <MajorPayne> Ubuntu is a strange install but an easy one.

[09:45] <jeremysandau> Can somebody help me figure out how to connect to my windows workgroup LAN?
[09:45] <Cromag> Znyp: they won't work at ALL after hitting your head ;)
[09:46] <nalpha> Cromag: nop i cant ping and ssh from my client
[09:46] <varka> Erdaron: http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php

[09:46] <Cromag> nalpha: so how is your network build ? crossover ?
[09:47] <nalpha> Cromag: I'm using switch
[09:47] <mattthebaker> cafuego: if you're still on, i found an easy fix, although the menu still seems really buggy
[09:48] <Cromag> nalpha: ok, and dhcp server on the ubuntu machine ? or static ips ?
[09:48] <Erdaron> varka: thanks
[09:48] <nalpha> Cromag: everything in my network have static ip
[09:48] <macd> anyone ever changes the pic of the icon on the menu bar?
[09:48] <Cromag> nalpha: ok, one sec.
[09:48] <yokobr> didnt worked
[09:48] <Cromag> nalpha: are you using iptables ?
[09:48] <yokobr>  /var/cache/apt/archives/samba_3.0.22-1ubuntu4.2_i386.deb
[09:48] <yokobr> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[09:49] <nalpha> Cromag: yup i'm using it
[09:49] <jeremysandau> Can somebody help me figure out how to connect to my windows workgroup LAN?
[09:49] <macd> yokobr, and you did all the steps I proposed?
[09:49] <Cromag> nalpha: one sec then.
[09:49] <Truman> Can some one help me out with mounting a mac osx drive so that I can write to it?
[09:49] <knix> man mount
[09:50] <Truman> k, thanks
[09:50] <nalpha> Cromag: I'm flush all my iptables now
[09:50] <nalpha> Cromag: I'm flush all my iptables now, It's okay?
[09:50] <Cromag> nalpha: wait a bit instead.
[09:50] <nalpha> Cromag: After flushin im tryng again and still 445 not opened (Checked with nmap)
[09:51] <Erdaron> EvilDennisR: did you find the info you were looking for?
[09:51] <yokobr> macd, yes, but i dont have the partial folder
[09:52] <varka> macd: http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Gnome_Icon
[09:52] <sjoerd_> what do you guys think of mac :)
[09:52] <macd> yokobr, okay, 'sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/' then 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade'  and can I assume this is edgy? or an non upgraded feisty?
[09:52] <macd> varka, tyvm
[09:52] <macd> I guess I could have googled first
[09:52] <MajorPayne> sjoerd: I installed Ubuntu on my MacBook.
[09:53] <Truman> If I'm dual booting on a mac and I want to make the "Macintosh HD" writeable, wouldn't it be mount /media/Macintosh HD -w?
[09:53] <yokobr> rm: Can't remove `/var/cache/apt/archives/': It's a directory
[09:54] <Cromag> nalpha: one sec, im on the phone.
[09:54] <knix> Truman: mount -t ufs -o ufstype=openstep /dev/sdaX /mnt/macos
[09:54] <MajorPayne> yokobr: try rm -r.
[09:54] <yokobr> i will sudo nautilus and manually remove it
[09:54] <jeremysandau> Can somebody help me figure out how to connect to my windows workgroup LAN?
[09:55] <J-_> I'm currently trying to get PHPmailer working in a LAMP install. libphp phpmailer  uses php4 along with some other dependencies. I'm just wonder if that'll affect or work with php5, etc?
[09:55] <Truman> knix:  lol, thanks .. but it says that that mount point doesn't exist
[09:56] <Erdaron> good night y'all!
[09:56] <Cromag>  iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 445 -j ACCEPT
[09:56] <Cromag> nalpha:
[09:56] <macd> yokobr, dont remove the directory, only the contents
[09:57] <nalpha> Cromag: ya?
[09:57] <yokobr> it says that i cant do the dist-upgrade 'cause it cant find  /var/cache/apt/archives/partial
[09:57] <Cromag> nalpha: iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 445 -j ACCEPT
[09:57] <Cromag> try that.
[09:57] <yokobr> too late
[09:57] <macd> yokobr, 'sudo mkdir /var/cache/apt/archives/
[09:57] <macd> yokobr, 'sudo mkdir /var/cache/apt/archives/ and
[09:57] <macd> yokobr, 'sudo mkdir /var/cache/apt/archives/partial
[09:58] <knix> Truman: Because I made it up, you have to actrually know where the drive is you're mounting
[09:58] <nalpha> Cromag: hm.. already execute that but 445 still not listed in NMAP?
[09:58] <Cromag> hmm
[09:58] <macd> brb yokobr
[09:58] <Truman> knix:  ah, I gotcha.. guess it'd help if I read what I'm given, eh?
[09:58] <nalpha> Cromag: Hm.. there is any option beside I'm installing again the samba?
[09:58] <Cromag> nalpha: samba startet ?
[09:59] <gatornation52> OK how do I get back my Windows XP.
[09:59] <nalpha> Cromag: yup it's in ps -ax
[09:59] <gatornation52> It says it was dual booting
[09:59] <gatornation52> But I don't know how to get XP back
[09:59] <Cromag> nalpha: try restart it. should work, unless another port is specified.
[09:59] <yokobr> still get same error. it download samba, but fails in the install
[10:00] <nalpha> Cromag: If I'm connect it with my client the error is like this " Samba Connection is failed, Connection refused)
[10:00] <nalpha> Cromag: how to use another port?
[10:00] <Truman> Knix, what's ufstype=openstep do?
[10:00] <knix> read the manpage.
[10:00] <gatornation52> HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP
[10:01] <gatornation52> How do I get my Windows XP to load
[10:01] <macd> !grub
[10:01] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[10:01] <yokobr> i was on dapper, and i've just started the update manager, and got it doing its job.
[10:02] <yokobr> asked to upgrade to 6.10
[10:02] <gatornation52> No I need to get Windows XP to load, not Ubuntu
[10:02] <gatornation52> I'm on Ubuntu right now
[10:02] <yokobr> but then it hanged on installing the packages, right in the middle. because of the samba package.
[10:02] <macd> yokobr, okay, let me know how that goes
[10:02] <macd> yokobr, ahhhh
[10:03] <macd> yokobr, hopefully that will not happen this time
[10:03] <macd> gatornation52, do you have an antry on boot for windows XP ?
[10:03] <varka> gatornation52: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/DOS_002fWindows.html#DOS_002fWindows
[10:03] <gatornation52> What - MacD
[10:03] <Cromag> nalpha: i don't know :) - but must be possible somehow in the configuration.
[10:03] <macd> gatornation52, do you get the option to choose to boot windows Xp ?
[10:03] <yokobr> still cant finish the upgrade.
[10:04] <Cromag> nalpha: but any other ports open in NMAP ?
[10:04] <gatornation52> MacD - No
[10:04] <varka> gatornation52: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/DOS_002fWindows.html#DOS_002fWindows

[10:06] <nalpha> Cromag: What' that?
[10:06] <defrysk> gatornation52, reinstall xp
[10:06] <Cromag> nalpha: settings for nmap.
[10:06] <MajorPayne> gatornation52: You removed it.  That's what "entire disk" means.
[10:06] <Truman> Thanks for your help, guys -- goodnight
[10:06] <gatornation52> How do you uninstall Ubuntu?
[10:06] <nalpha> Cromag: I'm tryng it
[10:07] <macd> gatornation52, there are ways to recover it, but you most likely need someone who has done it before to do such a thing in person, and you would need to power your system off and not touch it until then
[10:07] <MajorPayne> gatornation52: Install Windows XP.  Tell XP to use the entire disk.
[10:07] <Cromag> nalpha: so nmap -vvvv -T Insane ip
[10:07] <defrysk> gatornation52, you dont, you install windows xp and remove ubuntu in the process
[10:07] <gatornation52> ok
[10:07] <defrysk> gatornation52, and leave some space for an ubuntu install
[10:07] <gatornation52> Well I will just roll with Ubuntu for a while
[10:07] <gatornation52> I will
[10:08] <NickGH> i've you've partitioned the entire disk for ubuntu, and you want the data back, then definitely don't install windows.. unless i missed something
[10:08] <macd> yokobr, you can also try to use dpkg and force that specific package its hanging on, then rerun the dist upgrade.
[10:08] <gatornation52> So next time dont choose "Use all disk"?
[10:08] <varka> gatornation52: best decision you can make :)
[10:08] <defrysk> gatornation52, dont use ubuntu too long you might not appreciate xp anymore ;)
[10:08] <macd> gatornation52, correct, choose resize existing disk
[10:08] <nalpha> Cromag: I'm paste it at your own channel, any suggestion?
[10:08] <Cromag> nalpha: paste it on the pastebin
[10:08] <Cromag> !paste
[10:08] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[10:08] <gatornation52> Well I like it so far but I cant connect to my personal wireless internet
[10:08] <macd> gatornation52, but if you need any of your old data back, dont touch anything and let someone who can fix it.
[10:09] <gatornation52> I type in my WEP code and it tries to connect, but just keeps asking me for my WEP code
[10:09] <varka> gatornation52: maybe that helps: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported
[10:09] <yokobr> i just want to cut out that samba
[10:10] <gatornation52> Yep, mine is supported
[10:10] <gatornation52> I just don't know whats wrong
[10:10] <NickGH> rr, so anyone use imap with thunderbird? got big problem thats shitting me....
[10:10] <gatornation52> I can connect to other networks (obviously)
[10:12] <knix> Where does Ubuntu store the info it uses to generate menu.lst?
[10:12] <macd> yokobr, you should 'sudo apt-get remove samba' then start the dist-upgrade over then.
[10:12] <knix> Every time I update the kernel it alters mine, and since I've moved the boto partition this is quite annoying
[10:12] <macd> knix, its part of the kernel debian package
[10:12] <knix> But where does it store the data it uses to generate it when you update a kernel

[10:13] <macd> there are places in grub you can make changes perm. above the automagic kernel config lines
[10:13] <macd> knix, thats part of the deb.

[10:13] <pj__> please help me
[10:13] <pj__> about wine
[10:13] <macd> knix, if you wanted to change it youd have to split abnd rebuild the deb
[10:13] <Cromag> !ask
[10:13] <Flannel> !wine | pj__
[10:13] <ubotu> pj__: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[10:13] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:13] <pj__> how can i run wine
[10:14] <pj__> i have installed it
[10:14] <yokobr> yes
[10:14] <yokobr> still hangs
[10:14] <Cromag> pj__: have you read the README ?
[10:14] <nalpha> Cromag: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28303/
[10:14] <Cromag> nalpha: ok
[10:14] <Cromag> sec
[10:14] <Flannel> pj__: That page explains how to run it
[10:14] <macd> yokobr, you have to delete the package from /var/cache/archives/ or ../partial first.
[10:14] <pj__> ok thanks
[10:15] <macd> yokobr, and I have to get out of here, so good luck
[10:15] <Cromag> nalpha: an please paste the content of iptables to.
[10:15] <yokobr> same problem
[10:15] <yokobr> well, thanks anyway
[10:16] <Cromag> nalpha: iptables -L -n
[10:16] <iswm> Anyone know why IDE hard drives would be assigned as sd* instead of hd*?
[10:16] <Cromag> i'll just get some coffee..
[10:16] <varka> pj__: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine
[10:16] <cafuego> iswm: new ide layer uses libata, which emulates scsi for all ide devices.
[10:17] <yokobr> well, anyone else want to try to understand this?
[10:17] <nalpha> Cromag: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28304/
[10:17] <iswm> cafuego, so no more hdparm tweaking, then?
[10:17] <nalpha> Cromag: Check it out
[10:17] <cafuego> iswm: Which is why Feisty accesses partitions by uuid, not device file.
[10:17] <cafuego> iswm: nope
[10:19] <Cromag> nalpha: ye looking.
[10:19] <marcb_at_ve> hello guys... I got some questions about wireless
[10:20] <marcb_at_ve> wireless is working good and everything is fine... however I see 2 interfaces (wifi0 and eth1) I want to know why is this and how can I hide one
[10:21] <marcb_at_ve> furthermore, right now I have the same configuration in both... I want to know which one is the real important
[10:23] <Ind[y] > Python 2.5.1 on Ubuntu Linux has BitTorrent as a default package(?!) Why?
[10:24] <Cromag> nalpha: ok, i'm looking at my own samba and iptables comared to yours. And you have trouble reaching \\192.168.1.1\specified_path ?
[10:25] <nalpha> Cromag: yup
[10:25] <stinger05> hi there does anyone have a link to a guide how to install ubuntu dual booted with windows xp  ?
[10:25] <Cromag> nalpha: and you are SURE of the path given. ?
[10:26] <nalpha> Cromag: It's works now... I don't know why. I Flush all iptables, maybe that makes my 445 portsclosed. i copy the nmap wait...
[10:26] <Cromag> LOL
[10:26] <Ind[y] > stinger05: Just go on with the installation following the installer, and create a new partition in which you will install Ubuntu.
[10:26] <Ind[y] > Python 2.5.1 on Ubuntu has BitTorrent as a default package(?!) Why?
[10:26] <predaeus> !dualboot | stinger05

[10:27] <bsm> hi, since my upgrade to feisty I get weird Input/Ouput Errors... I work in my shell, convert a qemu image and bam, /usr/bin/command-not-found: Input/Output Error.
[10:27] <christian_> quit
[10:27] <stinger05> indy: u mean the guided one or manually ?
[10:27] <christian_> exit
[10:27] <bsm> the disk should be working, I tested with SMART and badblocks and no errors
[10:27] <bsm> ideas anyone?
[10:27] <bsm> and I'm quite sure its since feisty
[10:29] <Ind[y] > Oh, never mind.
[10:30] <jscinoz> Hey guys, i'm running Feisty, my graphics card is a Geforce2 MX400 and i just installed the nvidia-glx-legacy package, i've changed nv to nvidia in xorg.conf but i still have no 3d acceleration, if i type glxinfo|grep rendering i get Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0" and i get the same thing if i try to run glxgears, what can i do?
[10:31] <defrysk> jscinoz, you restarted X ?
[10:34] <predaeus> bsm, what is the command you issue to convert? command-not-found is the tool used to tell you to install a program if it is not found/installed yet but you call it. It is called by bash, no idea what the input/output error is though, could not find info.
[10:34] <Znyp> Should the ubuntu installation take 40-45 minutes?
[10:34] <Znyp> It's still not done
[10:35] <bosewicht> haha...depends on ur computer
[10:35] <VoX> depends how old the system is
[10:35] <Znyp> the percentage meter is gone, and it just says "Copying files..."
[10:35] <Znyp> pretty old, celeron 700 with 256 ram
[10:35] <VoX> hm
[10:35] <VoX> 45min is a bit long to still be copying
[10:35] <Lo_Pan> hm?
[10:36] <bosewicht> then maybe
[10:36] <VoX> is there still cdrom activity?
[10:36] <Lo_Pan> see what's sitting on the main terminal
[10:36] <Znyp> its a old slot-in cd-rom though... and yes I can hear the cd-rom working
[10:36] <VoX> could still be copying i suppose
[10:37] <VoX> if it's an ancient 8x or something
[10:37] <Znyp> ahh, now it says "less than a minute remaining.."
[10:37] <bsm> predaeus: its not about converting but its about the input/output error =)
[10:37] <Znyp> good stuff :P
[10:37] <jscinoz> Hey guys, I'm using Ubuntu Feisty, and my graphics card is a Geforce2 MX400, i just installed the nvidia-glx-legacy package, but i still have no 3d rendering, glxinfo|grep rendering returns  something about no GLX extensions, what can i do (ps nvidia is enabled in xorg.conf and glx is listed in the modules section)
[10:38] <predaeus> bsm, for bash to call command-not-found you must be calling a program that is not installed
[10:38] <bsm> predaeus: it can't access the whole disk, as its giving me this message for EVERY command
[10:38] <bsm> like ls
[10:38] <bsm> df
[10:39] <Cromag> nalpha: have you pasted it ? :)
[10:39] <predaeus> bsm, so why didn't you state that earlier instead of confusing us with " I work in my shell, convert a qemu image and bam, /usr/bin/command-not-found: Input/Output Error"
[10:39] <predaeus> :-D
[10:39] <IppatsuManXYZ> Hi all. I've a problem: as soon as KDE starts, the keyboard doesn't work. It works in kdm, I can type the password, but it doesn't work after the login. Here's the content of ~/.xsession_errors : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28305/ Does anyone know how to fix it?
[10:40] <predaeus> bsm, did you try checking the file system?
[10:40] <pi12po88> hello
[10:40] <arjen_ubu> morning
[10:41] <bsm> predaeus: is there a way to check my xfs root filesystem or will I need an external system?
[10:41] <pi12po88> I'm going to buy a mac pro and I'm wondering if there are problems installing ubuntu on it
[10:42] <predaeus> bsm, not sure, but I think you can just run fsck on it without unmounting it (fsck needs the filesystem mounted anyway)
[10:42] <pi12po88> I mean as the main os
[10:42] <wildchild> hello there
[10:42] <osfameron> pi12po88: the main problem will be all the mac zealots complaining "Why did you put Linux on a Mac!"
[10:42] <pi12po88> I found pages detailing how to install it but I didn't find anything definitive on hw compatibility
[10:42] <bsm> predaeus: I will check that. thanks for helping anyway.
[10:43] <wildchild> how can I transfer file from my ubuntu maschine via putty here on working windows maschine?
[10:43] <predaeus> bsm, try "man fsck" if that works. and run it on your filesystem. or do all commands fail because they can not be found or because those commands like "ls" df access the whole disk or something.
[10:43] <osfameron> pi12po88: I was thinking of that too.  Look at http://www.linux-on-laptops.com/apple.html maybe?
[10:43] <derek> man fuck
[10:43] <wildchild> I am on my home maschine right now.. just don't know how to copy file and transget it here
[10:43] <derek> hi

[10:44] <tunganet> I think i partitioned my harddrive wrong, it has 2 gigs of swap, 100 gig "/" and 60 gig of something else.  I the 60 gig of something else is sda3 on my desktop, i can't remove it.  What do i do?
[10:44] <arjen_ubu> thank you osfameron
[10:44] <wildchild> hello there
[10:44] <derek> :)
[10:44] <muuhBDXi> :D
[10:44] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: are you running a dualboot system?
[10:45] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: no only ubuntu
[10:45] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: ok, and what does the 60 gig contain?
[10:45] <tunganet> arjen_ubu:  nothing =\
[10:45] <muuhBDXi> :D
[10:46] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: i think you forgot to mount that partition to /home
[10:46] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: i remember someone telling me ubuntu needs 3 partition to work better.  Swap, / and something else
[10:46] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: i think so too =\ is there anyway i can fix t hat?
[10:46] <Temik> And /usr/home partition)))
[10:47] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: what happens if you go to Places > Home Folder?
[10:47] <ceil420> any idea why my cursors won't work? :(
[10:47] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: i see desktop and examples
[10:47] <predaeus> tunganet, what does "sudo fdisk -l" list as partitions? (run "man fdisk" first to read up on that command). then post the output to a pastebin please and the link here.
[10:47] <Temik> The home catalog must be lying on another partition in Linux
[10:48] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: ok this means ubuntu made a /home partition onto your 100Gb drive
[10:48] <PepperBob> hi all
[10:48] <Temik> You can manually mount it as you like in partition manager
[10:48] <PepperBob> which package do i need to burn audio from mp3?
[10:48] <PepperBob> actually i can play mp3...
[10:48] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: oh, hmm what about the rest of the 60 gig, what is it supposed to be =\
[10:48] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: you can install the same partition tool that you used during installation
[10:49] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: to be honest, i did my partition with the ubuntu live cd, then upgraded to 7.04 just now.
[10:49] <Temik> tunganet: Wait, so there is 4 partitions???
[10:49] <tunganet> Temik: no 3
[10:49] <Temik> \are
[10:49] <Temik> tunganet: So........
[10:49] <tunganet> Temik: 2 gig of swap, 100 gig of /home and 60 gig of i dont know =\
[10:50] <Temik> tunganet: 60 Gig of system
[10:50] <Temik> tunganet: It's a root partition
[10:50] <muuhBDXi> \nick VIrUS
[10:50] <tunganet> Temik: i dont think i set it up properly for the 60 gig because i see it sitting on my desktop
[10:50] <tunganet> Temik: SDA3
[10:50] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: he said his 60 Gb partition was empty, I think his 100Gb partition is root
[10:51] <Temik> Then with partition manager mount it as you like
[10:51] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: 2 gig of swap, 100 gig of "/", thats all i can remember  =\
[10:51] <Temik> Or hide it if you want
[10:51] <tunganet> Temik: where is this partition manager?
[10:51] <predaeus> tunganet, what does "sudo fdisk -l" list as partitions? (run "man fdisk" first to read up on that command). then post the output to a pastebin please and the link here.
[10:51] <BetaTester>  Hi all. Can somebody tell me which cpu type do I use with AMD Turion 64 x2?
[10:51] <BetaTester>  k7 or k8? I compiled 2.6.21 with K8 but system hung at boot :(
[10:51] <Temik> tunganet: "/" - IS a root partition)
[10:51] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: yes, run the command predaeus suggested in the terminal
[10:52] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: i did , and its really long =\
[10:52] <BetaTester> k7 stock kernel is fine, but I guess I am not using all the benefits of K8

[10:52] <Temik> tunganet: Then the home partition was not normally mounted
[10:52] <Temik> Try to use the GNOME partition manager
[10:53] <tunganet> Temik: sorry but where is that located?
[10:53] <Temik> And Mount it as home or just combine it with the root

[10:53] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: it's recommended if you have a large harddisk
[10:53] <tunganet> Temik: yes
[10:54] <predaeus> Temik, how can you recommend mounting it as home without knowing if that is it's intended use. tunganet would probably not be here if it was meant to be /home
[10:54] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: i have 160 gb harddisk, is that okay?
[10:54] <BetaTester> ok then :(. Thanks ajax4
[10:54] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: yes thats ok ;)
[10:54] <tunganet> predaeus: i really dont know what i am doing, i remember the first time installing a fresh copy of ubuntu.  This guy taught me to partition it into 3, two being home and swap
[10:55] <Temik> tunganet: Look here:
[10:55] <tunganet> predaeus: is there any way where i can partition it again?  I don't have ot backup anything aynways because it is a fresh copy installed just now.

[10:57] <predaeus> tunganet, ok if Temik lead you through the installation process and it was intended to be /home then you could try to fix it, but as it looks like now, /home is located in / now. If this partition is intended to be used as /home then you can move data over to that partition and jsut change the mounting locations in /etc/fstab or something. No need to repartition.

[11:01] <arjen_ubu> tell me what it says
[11:02] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: /dev/sda1 ext3 mountpoint:  /  100GB.    /dev/sda2 Linux-swap  2GB.  /dev/sda3 ext3 mountpoint: /media/sda3 50GB

[11:04] <Dimensions> Hi guys .... i have backuped my old hdd into .tgz ... extracted it to another hdd now ... but dont remember its passwd .... i get some errors and can login to console only how do i enable auto login into console (in 6.10) ???
[11:04] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: your /home directory is now in the /  <<< partition, what you want is to have it in a separate partition i.e. the /media/sda3 50Gb partition
[11:05] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: don't change anything yet
[11:05] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: oh..
[11:06] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: but before reformat, there didnt have a sda3 sitting on my desktop :P
[11:06] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: or did you?
[11:06] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: did not
[11:06] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: ok ok
[11:07] <fedupwithwindows> Feisty uses XFree86 or X.Org? And how can i check what version i'm using? Thanx
[11:07] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: What I think you should do now is rename your /media/sda3 partition /home then copy your /home files from / to your new /home. But I recommend asking someone with a bit more knowledge about that. So don't change anything yet. And ask a guru (which I'm not).
[11:07] <Dimensions> no one knows how to enable auto login with console ???
[11:07] <arjen_ubu> fedupwithwindows: X.Org
[11:08] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: aiya.. can i just hide the sda3 sitting on my desktop
[11:08] <erUSUL> Dimensions: did you used the -p switch or tar to preserve permisions?? Just use the recovery mode entry of the grub menu to log in as root
[11:08] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: does it tell you you don't have the permission to do so when you try to unmount it?
[11:09] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: yeah
[11:09] <anathematic> can i read ext3 formatted harddrives on vista?
[11:09] <fedupwithwindows> arjen_ubu: thank you.
[11:09] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: hey can't i just repartition.  I have no data to backup
[11:09] <monkey_> hai  man
[11:09] <monkey_> hi man
[11:09] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: it's because you need admin status to do that, which you can do in the terminal
[11:09] <monkey_> where  are you from
[11:09] <monkey_> ?
[11:09] <tkfu> hi, i'm wondering if there's any way I can start an application on my local xserver from an ssh command prompt
[11:10] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: i want to repartition the whole thing now to get everything right since I dont have to backup anything =\
[11:10] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: there's nothing wrong at the moment, your system is working, only ubuntu recognizes your empty 3rd partition
[11:10] <anathematic> anyone know if i can read ext3 formatted drives in vista?
[11:11] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: what is it supposed to be =\
[11:11] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: like i said, ask a guru when you want to properly partition
[11:11] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: who are the gurus =\
[11:11] <ajax4> anathematic: I don't know of a program that will let you do that.
[11:11] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: before you make a mistake and lose data, your ubuntu seems to be running fine as it is now
[11:11] <anathematic> ajax4: okay thanks
[11:11] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: try predaeus
[11:12] <tkfu> anathematic: try one of the ext3 readers for xp; there's at least a chance it might work
[11:12] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: aite thankyou
[11:12] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: i hope this helped a bit :)
[11:12] <vicox> tkfu: you mean X-forwarding? just use the -X option in ssh
[11:12] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: thanks again
[11:12] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: no problem
[11:12] <monkey_> ...
[11:12] <tkfu> nono, i don't want to see the x window on the machine i'm sshing from
[11:12] <tkfu> i want to see it on the machine i'm sshing to
[11:12] <monkey_> any one chat with me
[11:12] <tunganet> predaeus: hey, I want to repartition my harddrive.  What should my 3 partitoins be if i have a 160 gb harddisk?
[11:12] <anathematic> tkfu: there are programs and plugins i can get to allow me to view EXT3 stuff under microsoft then?
[11:13] <tkfu> anathematic: oh yes, just google "ext3 windows"
[11:13] <Fantastic_Bob> Anybody know how to get s-video to work on a ATI graphics card in a laptop?
[11:13] <anathematic> tkfu: haha okay i'm on my way now ;)
[11:13] <aglet> I'm getting a lot  of USB thrashing; all USB devises (eg mouse) hang momentarily while this happens -- http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28311/ Anything I can do to make it stop..?
[11:13] <tkfu> anathematic: it will treat it like an ext2 partition, so you won't get the journaling features of ext3, but it works just fine
[11:14] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: remember you don't have to REpartition you already have 3 working partitions, Ubuntu recognizes them (as /media/sda3) is seen on your desktop, you just need to fix your /home partition
[11:14] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: i don't know how man.. :'(
[11:14] <Solid> hi everyone, i want to set my HD (ntfs) to read and write, already tried ntfs-config, without success.. (bad english)
[11:14] <vicox> tkfu: why would you do that?
[11:14] <anathematic> tkfu: well i'm actually only after transfering all my harddrives from ubuntu to vista and i was just thinking how on earth i was going to do it
[11:14] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: is my 100gb harddrive supposed to be /home?
[11:14] <arjen_ubu> !partition | tunganet
[11:14] <ubotu> tunganet: 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
[11:15] <tkfu> vicox: i'm at work and i realised i forgot to start my torrent client before i left
[11:15] <tkfu> it normally runs on a music server in my living room
[11:15] <Hobbsee> !away | matysek
[11:15] <ubotu> matysek: You should avoid changing your nick in a busy channel like #ubuntu - it causes unrequired scrolling which is unfair on new users. The same goes for using noisy away messages : use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently - See also !Guidelines
[11:15] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: no
[11:15] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: my smaller one (50) is supposed to be /home?
[11:15] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: yes
[11:16] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: eek im using the Gparted, but i can't edit anything its locked
[11:16] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: /home is like My Documents in Windows to store your music, downloads, videos etc.
[11:16] <predaeus> tunganet, arjen_ubu, unfortunately I do not know how parted/gparted handles the mount points. As far as I know changing the mount point for your sda3 in /etc/fstab should suffice. You would just make a backup of your current /home and also copy it over to your sda3 partition then change the mount points in /etc/fstab and it should be fine. But don't take this for granted because I am no guru and I am not too familiar with how
[11:16] <predaeus> gparted chooses/handles mount points.
[11:16] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: than shouldnt i use my bigger one as /home?
[11:16] <Solid> is read & write on NTFS supported?
[11:17] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: depends how much you need :)
[11:17] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: if you want a bigger one then yes
[11:17] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: I don't get it, what is the smaller one for then?
[11:17] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: isnt it okay to have only 2 gig of swap, and the rest for /home?
[11:17] <arjen_ubu> Solid: Ubuntu can only read NFTS, not write.
[11:18] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: the rest for / you mean
[11:18] <ajax4> arjen_ubu: Actually Ubuntu can now read and write NTFS. Install the packages ntfs-3g and ntfs-config.
[11:18] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: yeah what is it for?
[11:18] <fedupwithwindows> Solid: i remember reading on this channel that you need to install some codec to allow ubuntu to write in an ntfs partition, but thats all i know... im a noob :P
[11:18] <arjen_ubu> tunganet: by default the /home directory sits inside / <<<
[11:18] <predaeus> tunganet, you need space for system files and programs. see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard  for clarification please
[11:18] <tunganet> ohhh
[11:18] <arjen_ubu> ajax4: ah sweet
[11:19] <defcon> good 3d graphics app for ubuntu?
[11:19] <gerro> tunganet: I never have more than 512mb swap anymore is useless unless you have optical hard drive with silver ide cable or embedded into cpu
[11:19] <tunganet> predaeus: so 40gb of system
[11:19] <kazim59> !ntfs-3g | Solid
[11:19] <ubotu> Solid: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[11:19] <tunganet> gerro: :o
[11:19] <predaeus> tunganet, look at the wikipedia link I gave above it can clarify a bit.
[11:19] <tunganet> predaeus: ok thanks
[11:19] <gerro> tunganet: if you ever need more than that then you need to get your priorities right with apps you running
[11:19] <fedupwithwindows> Solid: there you have it
[11:20] <fedupwithwindows> kazim59: thank you =)
[11:20] <tunganet> predaeus: ohhh i get it
[11:20] <predaeus> gerro, I recently read about 1.5-2 times the RAM size should be used as swap if one intends to use suspend to disk.
[11:21] <tunganet> predaeus: so now i need to change my media/sda3 to /home but i can't unmount it in Gparted
[11:24] <tunganet> arjen_ubu: do you have any clue?
[11:24] <predaeus> tunganet, I think you do not need to work with gparted to change the mount point. just copy all subdirectories and files in /home to your sda3 partition and then change the mount point of sda3 in /etc/fstab to /home  (be sure to copy hidden files!). But don't take this for granted as I am not sure if it will work. Wait for more people to say that this is a good way to do it.
[11:24] <tunganet> predaeus: the only thing i don't get is this /etc/fstab you keep speaking of =\
[11:25] <bluebanana> my ipod is plugged in. how do i mount it?
[11:25] <tunganet> predaeus: do you mean typing something like sudo gedit /etc/fstab in terminal?
[11:26] <predaeus> tunganet, yes, the fstab table tells linux where to mount what file system (could be on different drives) in the tree. Like in the wikipedia link. The linux directory structure is a tree and you can mount any file system /drive anywhere in that tree. /etc/fstab says where to mount on boot.
[11:26] <predaeus> tunganet, yes, but I am not sure if this works so make a backup of /etc/fstab in case you need to copy it back later.
[11:26] <tunganet> predaeus: ok trying now thanks
[11:27] <tunganet> predaeus: i cant seem to copy my /home files to my sda3
[11:27] <predaeus> tunganet, for programs with GUIs it is recommended to run gksudo instead of sudo, so for gedit you would use "gksudo gedit ..."
[11:28] <predaeus> tunganet, try "cp -r /home/* /media/sda3/"   that should copy all user directories (including yours) in /home to that other partition, if it is mounted at /media/sda3
[11:29] <predaeus> tunganet, see "man cp"  the -r option makes it copy recursively into subdirectories
[11:29] <tunganet> predaeus: yes got it
[11:29] <tunganet> predaeus: so i just change the "/media/sda3" to "/home" in the text file and i am done?
[11:30] <predaeus> tunganet, also do a "sudo cp -r /home /home.bak" to create a backup of the whole home directory, maybe you need that later if all fails.
[11:30] <tim__> i have the m2n SLI Deluxe motherboard with the Soundmax ADI 1988B audio and im trying to make my ubuntu experience where i can hear and talk to people using wine and ventrilo. can anyone help me?
[11:30] <predaeus> tunganet, yes if you did all the copying this should be it, and then reboot and hope it works.
[11:31] <tunganet> predaeus: alright restarting system now, wish me luck :D
[11:31] <malgar> i've installed a library using configure make make install, how can i remove or overwrite it? can I use synaptic?
[11:31] <nalpha> Cromag: Thanx alot bro sorry i'm going out before, now My Itnernet connection seems down.. huh so confusing using bad interface (dlink for 30 user)
[11:32] <predaeus> oh my, probably he/she would've needed to remove/rename the /home directory too to make it work.
[11:33] <tim__> i have the m2n SLI Deluxe motherboard with the Soundmax ADI 1988B audio and im trying to make my ubuntu experience where i can hear and talk to people using wine and ventrilo. can anyone help me?
[11:33] <predaeus> malgar, try "sudo make uninstall"  where you compiled it.
[11:34] <predaeus> malgar, if the make script supports uninstalling, it will uninstall the library. You can not uninstall it with synaptic/apt-get because they do not know about it.
[11:34] <predaeus> malgar, you could overwrite though, but might be messy.
[11:35] <malgar> predaeus, tnx
[11:36] <tung> predaeus: ahh it didnt work =\
[11:36] <predaeus> tung, what did it say? I forgot that you probably need to rename the old /home directory or it will complain.
[11:36] <tung> predaeus: it said something is being ignored i didnt really understand it
[11:37] <tung> predaeus: can i just REpartition the whole thing right now
[11:37] <predaeus> tung, hm so you are in the same system now? not on the livecd or something, it continued booting?
[11:37] <michas> hi, how can i select locales in ubuntu? (in debian there ist "dpkg-reconfigure locales")
[11:38] <tung> predaeus: i used failsafe terminal and changed the /home back to /media/sda3 and rebooted
[11:38] <predaeus> michas, should work here too, but I messed around a lot with these.
[11:38] <bionoid> michas: apt-get install localeconf && localeconf
[11:38] <Cromag> nalpha: hehe :P
[11:39] <matt1982> hey peeps i just installed the ati drivers from the Restricted Drivers Manager but im still unable to get my screen resolution higher than 1024, do I need to set a monitor type or something?
[11:39] <tommy_> Question: when installing feisty from the alternate cd it cannot detect my cd rom drive, "no common cd rom found", How can i fix this?
[11:40] <angela__75> hello there
[11:40] <nmz> yes hi.  For some reason I can't install the nvidia-glx package for dapper?
[11:40] <nmz> it won't download the packages
[11:40] <Dimensions> erUSUL:  Does recovery mode root login needs authentication ??? for grub ?
[11:40] <predaeus> tung, ah, well it could be that because there is still the old /home directory with content, it can not mount the sda3 partition at that location. you could rename the /home directory to /home2 or /home.bak or what is free and then "sudo mkdir /home" to create an empty home directory as mount point. I do not know if this was the problem though and if it fails you would have to copy the /home2 back to /home to boot again. You w
[11:40] <predaeus> ould need to try the other fstab setting again for this to work. Or just reinstall and partition correctly :-P
[11:40] <michas> predaeus, the reconfigure in ubuntu just generates the locales, but does not allow to choose them.
[11:41] <tung> predaeus: why can't i just repartition the whole entire thing right now =\
[11:41] <michas> bionoid, thx, looks good. it's from universe. there is no way in plain ubuntu?
[11:41] <malgar> i'm trying to install libgtk2.0-dev but it requires to remove a lot of stuff such as xserver
[11:41] <predaeus> michas, hm look for what update-<tab> programs there are.
[11:41] <angela__75> strange ps/2 mouse issue in laptop... after the boot in gdm the touchpad works but the ps/2 mouse go crazy: I have to disconnect and then reconnect it for having it working properly. Any help?
[11:42] <l9root> Have any one tried the version 7.10?
[11:42] <predaeus> tung, you could try, but I do not know if gparted fixes the mount point in /etc/fstab
[11:42] <javier> qe haces
[11:43] <tung> predaeus: I dont want to load up my ubuntu 6.10 live CD to do the partition again and upgrade to feisty, that takes forever =\
[11:43] <zaphands> Hello! The system suddenly does not recognize half of my mouse clicks!
[11:43] <javier> my espanis
[11:43] <javier> yo espaol
[11:44] <javier> comko te yamas
[11:44] <ajax4> tung, Use the bootable gparted CD
[11:44] <predaeus> tung, either you try the above method or you unmount sda3 and repartition it to /home to see if that works, but I don't know if it will.
[11:44] <tung> ajax4: where do i get that =\
[11:44] <tommy_> when installing 7.04 from alternate cd it doesnt recognise my cd rom drive,"no common cd rom found". How do i fix this?, please
[11:45] <ajax4> tung, gparted website. check sourceforge.net
[11:45] <Stokesy> is gaim called pidgin now?
[11:45] <tung> ajax4: will that bootable gparted cd allow me to repartition everything?
[11:45] <ajax4> tung, yep, then when you run the installer the partitions will already be set up.
[11:46] <tung> ajax4: okay downloading the live cd now :d
[11:46] <tung> ajax4: i still have to set up those /home / and swap stuff right?
[11:47] <predaeus> tung, if you repartition your / filesystem you will probably will have to reinstall ubuntu though. or tung just download the feisty 7.04 livecd so you don't have to update after installing dapper 6.10. the livecd also has gparted on it.
[11:47] <tunganet> predaeus: oh thats even better, okay thanks :D
[11:48] <predaeus> tunganet, of course you will have security updates and so on but not as much as with updating from dapper
[11:48] <vader_> has anyone used Rogers cable and Ubuntu 6.06 LTS before? I am trying to set a clients internet up and having some serious problems. Not getting DHCP no matter what I try, It does work within a windblows environment
[11:48] <ajax4> tunganet, Create them in gparted, then just tell the installer where to mount them (/, /home, whatever)
[11:48] <bah> hi all, I need some help with Ubuntu
[11:49] <bah> I just bought a new PC and ported my HD over which had Ubuntu over

[11:50] <gerro> bah: I have no clue
[11:50] <gerro> bah: what is your msg?
[11:50] <bah> unable to start Graphic Server
[11:50] <slytherin> bah: What do you mean by ported over?
[11:50] <bah> I transfered the HD to the new PC (which had no HD)
[11:50] <bah> and tried to boot up
[11:50] <CraZy675> hey guys I have about 10 gigs of photos and I'd like to back them up to dvd is there program that will automate this process for me?
[11:51] <bah> didn't get the standard interface
[11:51] <bah> I'm thinking I need to reset the Hardware settings
[11:51] <gerro> CraZy675: try k3b or f spot
[11:52] <Zoffix> Hi, is it possible to somehow remap my keyboard so when I press both "SHIFT" keys I would type the underscore `_` ?
[11:52] <bah> since technically.. all the old settings old no longer be valid right?
[11:52] <tommy_> when installing 7.04 alternate cd, this comes up "No common CD-ROM drive was detected" . Help!
[11:52] <Jesus> Is there a way to find out the current refresh-rate on my laptop monitor?
[11:53] <CraZy675> installing f spot
[11:53] <CraZy675> thanks
[11:54] <bah> hmm.. anyone?
[11:54] <gerro> CraZy675: f spot is pretty nice for use after unloading your digital cam or stuff
[11:54] <gerro> bah: eh?
[11:54] <bah> I'm been looking at the various forums and all, but can't find a solution
[11:54] <bah> and I don't want to re-install Ubuntu again
[11:54] <slytherin> tommy_: File a bug
[11:55] <Myrtti> bah: start up in the recovery console
[11:55] <tommy_> ok
[11:55] <slytherin> bah: DId you anyway change the master slave settings for the PC to which you have attached the HD?
[11:55] <Myrtti> bah: and try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phig
[11:55] <bah> settings for HD not change
[11:55] <stoney> lo
[11:55] <gerro> tommy_: use a regular cdrom drive not dvd or cdrw, and if that doesn't work then make the boot cd into a usb install or use instlux from sourceforge site
[11:55] <Myrtti> bah: -phigh
[11:55] <bah> but it's a complete new system
[11:55] <bah> I tried the dpkg option and I got xserver not installed message
[11:56] <CraZy675> all my photos are just a mess
[11:56] <CraZy675> I just have them all in one directory and each sub directory is a date that the camera was dumped
[11:56] <slytherin> bah: Ok. Follow Myrtti's advice. The problem is with xserver configuration
[11:56] <tommy_> gerro: ok, ill look for some instructions on makeing a "boot usb drive"
[11:56] <bah> ok
[11:56] <clemyeats> Jesus: use the xorg utility.. one of the last applications in the mintmenu
[11:56] <bah> so what would I need to do?
[11:57] <gerro> CraZy675: heh my mom and sister are total camera freaks so used to the issue
[11:57] <bah> I'm going to reboot my ubuntu
[11:57] <clemyeats> Jesus: sorry... wrong channel.
[11:57] <bah> and tell u guys the error msg
[11:57] <clemyeats> Jesus: please disregard.
[11:57] <slytherin> CraZy675: Is that before or after importing them in f-spot?
[11:57] <CraZy675> before
[11:57] <CraZy675> I'm just importing now
[11:57] <vader_> gerro, so am I lol. I organize mine once a week and it takes me close to 2 hours to do so.
[11:57] <MenZa> What's the default Bluetooth password in Ubuntu? I don't appear to get a prompt when attempting to connect my phone to my adapter (but it does find it).
[11:57] <Myrtti> bah: restart your system, press esc to invode the grub menu at the boot and pick recovery console. Then at root prompt do "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh"
[11:58] <gerro> tommy_: you need like 1 gig flash drive and have to copy files over to it in a fat32 filesystem then edit it to use syslinux instead of casper or something
[11:58] <slytherin> CraZy675: Make sure that you uncheck 'create a copy of the photo' while importing in f-spot.
[11:58] <CraZy675> I've been manually backing up the photos to dvd, but that takes too long
[11:58] <Myrtti> (though I'm not sure it was esc that is used to invoke grub menu)
[11:58] <nalpha> Cromag: Are you still there?
[11:58] <CraZy675> ok
[11:58] <clemyeats> Jesus: xorg-edit could do the trick. http://sourceforge.net/projects/xorg-edit/
[11:59] <tommy_> gerro: sounds complicated, is there  a howto somewhere?
[11:59] <CraZy675> I've got a pretty good setup for backing up
[11:59] <joe__> hi

[12:01] <Zoffix> Hi, is it possible to somehow remap my keyboard so when I press both "SHIFT" keys I would type the underscore `_` ? I remember somehow setting that pressing "SHIFT+BACKSPACE" would be ignored, so I assume there is a way to set both SHIFTs to type `_`. Any clues?
[12:01] <bah> I gook
[12:01] <bah> ok
[12:01] <bah> got a new screen
[12:01] <vader_> a reason for her pc not getting DHCP using cable. works with router

[12:02] <bah> ok
[12:02] <bah> so now I reboot?
[12:03] <gerro> Zoffix: I'm using xubuntu so probably bit different, but if you go to shortcuts you can enter a command to print _ to standard output when you press a certain combo
[12:03] <nalpha> Cromag: I have problem again, in my server there is 2 interfaces one integrated one pci, now the integrated broken, so I want to connect to the in ternet from eth0 (pci) and deactivited the eth1 (integrated and broken now) then I can connect to the internet, but if I do that the port 443 microsoft-ds will be shutdown and my client can't access my server again, otherwise if I activited eth1 (integrated and broken) I can't access internet but my client ca
[12:03] <nalpha> n access port 443. Anyway the eth1 not used I'm only using eth0 to access internet and share file.
[12:03] <Zoffix> gerro, ok, thanks.
[12:03] <gerro> Zoffix: now how to do that I have no clue perhaps if you ask one of the more skilled shell users :)
[12:03] <bah> I get the same error msg
[12:04] <bah> bah
[12:04] <bah> need to rethink
[12:04] <Myrtti> bah: you got a new screen? what kind of screen, what error message. Please be mroe precise

[12:04] <Myrtti> bah: we're not telepathics
[12:04] <nalpha> Anyone can help me?

[12:04] <bah> sorry
[12:04] <Myrtti> !anyone | nalpha
[12:04] <ubotu> nalpha: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[12:05] <gerro> Myrtti: aww you said telepathics... even though I don't know what that means but I once heard darth vader referenced to it
[12:05] <vader_> lol gerro
[12:05] <gerro> bah: is it a kernel panic error your receiving? or just xorg thing
[12:05] <Stokesy> i thought gaim was called pidgin now
[12:05] <Ravenndude`> How can I figure out what version of Xorg I have?
[12:05] <Myrtti> Stokesy: the new version is
[12:06] <Stokesy> is the new version in the repo's?
[12:06] <ali1235> how can i listen on a priviledged port without enabling the root account?
[12:06] <Myrtti> Stokesy: no
[12:06] <bah> ok..
[12:06] <nalpha> Anybody can help me ? >>  I have problem again, in my server there is 2 interfaces one integrated one pci, now the integrated broken, so I want to connect to the in ternet from eth0 (pci) and deactivited the eth1 (integrated and broken now) then I can connect to the internet, but if I do that the port 443 microsoft-ds will be shutdown and my client can't access my server again, otherwise if I activited eth1 (integrated and broken) I can't access interne

[12:06] <jontec> ali1235: sudo!
[12:06] <bah> I think I will need to configure the xserver properly.. for which I need to find out what it is
[12:07] <bah> taking it 1 step @ a time
[12:07] <stupidgirl> woo
[12:07] <Solid> stupidgirl, a girl using ubuntu? :-[
[12:08] <ali1235> jontec: no. i want to do this: ssh -R 0.0.0.0:80:someip:someport ubuntubox
[12:08] <stupidgirl> kubuntu
[12:08] <gerro> bah: go to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28315/
[12:08] <ali1235> jontec: seems like that will only work if i append -l root after enabling root on "ubuntubox"
[12:08] <Ravenndude`> How can I figure out what version of Xorg I have?
[12:08] <gerro> bah: if someone installed the graphics drivers manually without doing so from the ubuntu repositories then you need to repeat the process for kernel updates
[12:09] <bah> which could be the problem
[12:09] <bah> I am thinking
[12:09] <bah> since it's a new system
[12:09] <bah> and what I get is the command prompt
[12:09] <gerro> bah: also restricted modules carry over graphics drivers :(
[12:09] <stupidgirl> why dont you just reinstall frm scratch
[12:09] <bah> because I have 80gb of data that I am trying to avoid losing
[12:10] <bah> that's my last resort
[12:10] <gerro> stupidgirl: and hit into the same problem again?
[12:10] <Myrtti> bah: you don't have xserver-xorg installed at all?
[12:10] <ali1235> hmm i just thought of a way to do it
[12:10] <stupidgirl> he put a hd from another box into a new one and expect it to boot?
[12:10] <ali1235> the packets are gonna go through about 8 hops just to get past one annoying firewall
[12:10] <Myrtti> stupidgirl: yes, it is doable
[12:11] <stupidgirl> yeah but screwy
[12:11] <Gigs> not with linux
[12:11] <gerro> bah: if you need a graphical interface then mount a usb or floppy and copy over your xorg.conf in /etc/X11/ then set it to use vesa instead of your current driver
[12:11] <stupidgirl> oh never with teh great almighty linuckz!
[12:11] <okay> hi
[12:11] <stupidgirl> hai
[12:12] <bah> hmm...
[12:12] <bah> using the CD
[12:12] <bah> Video is just identified as a Intel PCI
[12:13] <warlock_> Does anyone know if there's any webmail software where I can connect my pop3 email account to it?
[12:13] <bah> how do I check if I have xserver or not?
[12:13] <gerro> bah: apt-get install it
[12:14] <Myrtti> bah: install a graphical interface
[12:14] <Myrtti> bah: ubuntu/kubuntu/xubuntu-desktop
[12:14] <Myrtti> no but really
[12:14] <bah> what do I install?
[12:14] <Myrtti> bah: dpkg --get-selections xserver-xorg
[12:14] <Myrtti> do that
[12:15] <bah> I get xserver-xorg install
[12:15] <gerro> Myrtti: chances are he already has a desktop environment...
[12:15] <Myrtti> bah: so you have it installed already
[12:15] <bah> I "had" a desktop environment
[12:15] <bah> which won't load up at the moment
[12:16] <Myrtti> and doing "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh" should give you a blue ncurses based environment that allows you to reconfigure your xorg
[12:16] <bah> yes
[12:16] <bah> that did happen
[12:16] <Myrtti> and did you finish it?
[12:17] <bah> well.. not too sure what video to set it as
[12:17] <bah> as it's an integrated motherboard
[12:17] <gerro> bah: usually those work out of the box
[12:17] <Myrtti> dmesg and/or lspci should tell you something
[12:18] <stupidgirl> lawl!
[12:18] <nalpha> Cromag: Are you still there?
[12:18] <bah> lspci listed it as a Intel
[12:19] <magnastik> viva
[12:19] <magnastik> hi!
[12:19] <gerro> bah: yep intel integrated graphics card
[12:19] <bah> VGA Compatiable Controller Intel Corp 82865G

[12:23] <Myrtti> !away | sx66

[12:23] <|stefan|> hey =) anyone got ubuntu + beryl + ati working with the ubuntu packages ?
[12:24] <zzuh> sx66, you can use the live cd, choose not to format and continue, that will fix your grub
[12:24] <LaChevaliere> Sorry But How :$ :D

[12:26] <Genomsaren> hi
[12:26] <kistmet> sx66, boot using the live cd, install. Choose not to format and continue, ignore everything that comes up. Then grub will re-install. It won't re-install ubuntu if you choose not to format. Remember to choose manual install in the beginning and not guided.
[12:26] <Genomsaren> is there anybody knows something about postgresql?
[12:27] <nikin> LaChevaliere: thats ok, but witch one do you want to mount? the Windows partition? and what version of LiveCD are you using?
[12:27] <av> anyone ... which drivers should i install to my ati radeon 9600 pro 256mb?
[12:27] <LaChevaliere> 5.1
[12:28] <av> stupidgirl, xiii it's so hard to get aswered :) i believe that's what happens in a 1000 plus users channel
[12:29] <stupidgirl> yes indeedy... i find it's usually faster to google it 8-}
[12:29] <nikin> av : the are a lot of good manuals about that ati topic....
[12:29] <av> nikin, ubuntu web forum?
[12:30] <fedupwithwindows> av: also, try the ATI channel #ATI

[12:34] <kistmet> nikin, i suggest you try ##gnome
[12:35] <nikin> kismet: this problem doesnt seem to be Gnome related, i have no more Luck in Xfce, nor in flwm :D but its sure worth a try :D
[12:36] <kistmet> G'luck :)
[12:36] <logixoul> hey... is there any reason why irc would work fine, but not any other kind of connection, like web browsing? o_O
[12:37] <gordonjcp> logixoul: mad firewall settings?
[12:37] <kistmet> heh
[12:38] <stupidgirl> dns settings?
[12:38] <logixoul> gordonjcp: I haven't changed any settings in the last 5 minutes... and the web browsing stopped working 3 minutes ago
[12:38] <logixoul> It's happened to me once in the past, also
[12:38] <sire1> logixoul, try othere sites.
[12:38] <thedonvaughn> logixoul, are you still connected to network/inet?
[12:38] <logixoul> sire1: I did
[12:38] <thedonvaughn> logixoul, can you ping 4.2.2.2 ?
[12:38] <kistmet> stupidgirl, usually your isp provides those. You could also try inputting just your gateways ip, might work.
[12:38] <stupidgirl> pardon me
[12:39] <logixoul> thedonvaughn: I'm connected, yes (we're talking aren't we? :)
[12:39] <logixoul> thedonvaughn: no, I can't ping it
[12:39] <gordonjcp> logixoul: weird
[12:39] <thedonvaughn> logixoul, well not sure if you're working on the compueter in question
[12:39] <logixoul> ah
[12:39] <thedonvaughn> logixoul, er the computer
[12:39] <kistmet> stupidgirl, your dns settings are usually provide by your Internet Provider. If you are connected via a router / gateway, you could try inputting the router / gateway's ip as your primary dns server.
[12:40] <stupidgirl> mumu i know what dns settings are, i was suggesting maybe that's why this d00de cant browse 8-] 
[12:40] <stupidgirl> but nvm
[12:40] <kistmet> oh
[12:40] <kistmet> my bad
[12:40] <ubuntuEdgy> :)
[12:40] <ubuntuEdgy> hi all

[12:42] <andydufresne> oh sorry:)
[12:42] <andydufresne> i need program
[12:42] <andydufresne> in command line
[12:42] <andydufresne> for adding line on end of file
[12:43] <logixoul> I think it's DNS, yeah. I mean my irc client is still connected to freenode (because it resolved the host hours ago) but everytime I browse to a site, it doesn't work. I'll check with the isp.
[12:44] <jrib> andydufresne: echo "my new line" >> /path/to/file
[12:44] <stupidgirl> try opendns servers if you likez
[12:44] <logixoul> yep I thought about that
[12:44] <andydufresne> thx  jrib
[12:44] <logixoul> stupidgirl: but I can't reach their pages right now, I don't have DNS :) - could you pass me the ip addresses please?
[12:44] <stupidgirl> sure, 1 sec
[12:45] <thedonvaughn> logixoul, but you also couldn't ping 4.2.2.2
[12:45] <thedonvaughn> logixoul, then again, you could have some firewall thing from blocking that
[12:45] <logixoul> yeah... what's 4.2.2.2 anyway?
[12:45] <thedonvaughn> a nameserver i believe
[12:45] <stupidgirl>     * 208.67.222.222
[12:45] <stupidgirl>     * 208.67.220.220

[12:58] <eyequeue> hid3, i'm looking for (a) command(s) to do the following:
[12:58] <eyequeue> "hi" rather
[12:58] <xipi> i want to create an ext3 fs on hdb 10 would the following command be correct? mk2fs -c -T ext3 -V /dev/hdb10
[12:58] <av> jussi01, well... do you use gnome?
[12:59] <luiz> help: amaya dont open (exec)
[12:59] <jussi01> av: no
[12:59] <av> jussi01, i believe this could be a reliable cliente in future also: https://galaxium.bountysource.com/
[01:00] <madduck> i just installed feisty on a new R60 and it all seems to work fine except for s2ram
[01:00] <eyequeue> i have a bunch of files, of the format "/path/to/$foo_$bar.deb" and want to basename them, then strip the "_$bar.deb" from each, leaving me just the $foo portion (package name)
[01:00] <madduck> if i resume, the screen is black, it's lit, but X does not show
[01:00] <madduck> also, the machine gets no IP address it seems. I cannot SSH into it or continue an SSH session from before the suspend.
[01:00] <troopperi_> logixoul: thnx :P
[01:00] <madduck> any idea what i should do to make s2ram work? s2disk works alright.
[01:01] <earthling> is it possible to kill the install process, so that I can use the current session as a ftp install?  or should I reboot into the livecd?
[01:01] <NET||abuse> i'm screwed ... my gnome won't login.. kde works,, but no gnome :(
[01:01] <eyequeue> is there already some deb-type command to grab the package name from a debfile, or is there a construct in bash or perl to get me "the characters before the first underscore"?
[01:02] <madduck> eyequeue: dpkg-name <debfile> | cut -d_ -f1
[01:02] <jdstrand> xipi: mke2fs -c -j /dev/hdb10 (the '-j is optional, but enables journaling-- almost always a good idea)
[01:02] <madduck> uh, wait. that actually renames debfile
[01:02] <eyequeue> madduck, great!  thanks!
[01:03] <IceLink> Hi.#
[01:03] <stupidgirl> hai
[01:04] <IceLink> Is there a pidgin-.deb for dapper?
[01:04] <xipi> jdstrand, thank you
[01:07] <atlantis> yah uhuh sure, you betcha'
[01:10] <_nano_> Hi, could anyone tell me where exactly the network folders are mounted? I mounted a network folder using the "Connect to server" utility, but wanted to access the same through command line
[01:10] <kensho> hi
[01:10] <madduck> _nano_: most likely /media or /mnt; check with the mount command in a terminal
[01:10] <_nano_> madduck, checked both of those locations .. no luck :(
[01:11] <madduck> _nano_: what does cat /proc/mounts say?
[01:11] <madduck> _nano_: it *could* be that the server is mounted via GnomeVFS, which means that you cannot access it outside of Gnome
[01:11] <madduck> (I think)
[01:11] <M-> That's right
[01:11] <_nano_> madduck, yes the server is mounted using gnomevfs
[01:12] <M-> It's the default case for SSH, WebDAV and FTP (and possibly others)
[01:12] <madduck> it's not like the kernel VFS modules for those are any good
[01:12] <M-> _nano_, then unfortunately you can't access it except through nautilus :(
[01:12] <madduck> yay for reinventing the wheel
[01:12] <M-> (and some other tools)
[01:12] <_nano_> M-, wow that sucks :(
[01:12] <mojojojo_> hi... could recommend a instant message client with the ability to carry out voice conversations AND video conference????
[01:12] <madduck> _nano_: Gnome != Unix
[01:12] <M-> _nano_, yeah, but they know it sucks and are trying to fix it. :)
[01:13] <madduck> M-: good to hear at least
[01:13] <M-> _nano_, I'd suggest unmounting the filesystem and trying other alternatives (like sshfs or it's ilk)
[01:13] <_nano_> madduck, yeah ..i thought it would be mounting somewhere..i'm kind of a noob here :(
[01:13] <logixoul> mojojojo_: possibly wengophone
[01:14] <M-> _nano_, how are you trying to connect to the server?
[01:14] <mojojojo_> logixoul:  I tried it... however it doesn't seem to work... not to mention the fact that it crashes randomly
[01:14] <_nano_> M-, through FTP
[01:14] <madduck> _nano_: hold on to your thoughts. you're right, Gnome is wrong.
[01:14] <M-> _nano_, Arh. I don't know if there's such a thing as a command line accessible FTP "filesystem" :(
[01:14] <mojojojo_> I also tred Ekiga ... but the quality was really bad and I couldn't talk
[01:14] <mojojojo_> tried*
[01:15] <M-> Your best bet is, unfortunately, an FTP client
[01:15] <mojojojo_> under Skype the conversation is ok, however linux client doesn't allow for video
[01:15] <madduck> _nano_: or curlftpfs
[01:15] <_nano_> M-, I know what you're sayin...the thing is I wanted access to them through vim etc
[01:15] <madduck> _nano_: curlftpfs
[01:15] <_nano_> madduck, wow i'll have a look at that right now
[01:16] <M-> _nano_, arh. That's gonna be really slow anyway.. so I wouldn't recommend it
[01:16] <madduck> _nano_: http://blog.mypapit.net/2007/05/how-to-use-ftp-filesystem-on-ubuntu-using-curlftpfs.html
[01:16] <Alocado> hello
[01:16] <_nano_> M-, completely agree... I just wanted to see if it was a possibility at all
[01:16] <_nano_> madduck, thanks much!
[01:17] <Alocado> why CUPS doesn't write data in page_log?
[01:17] <mojojojo_> any suggestions?
[01:17] <Alocado> Loglevel is debug2..
[01:17] <M-> _nano_, fair enough :)
[01:17] <_nano_> madduck, that's exactly my case! omg that post is priceless !! thanks much!
[01:18] <_nano_> madduck, my server doesn't offer me ssh access etc. I am forced to use FTP, but didn't wanna go through the synching local and network servers
[01:18] <_nano_> madduck, so that link is exactly what I needed ! :D
[01:20] <Alocado> somebody here who can belp me?
[01:21] <stupidgirl> crystal ball no worky today :(
[01:21] <Frogzoo_> Alocado: 1100 people here, skip the prelims, just state your issue
[01:21] <Alocado> see above...
[01:21] <stupidgirl> lol
[01:22] <Lorne_Kun> how do i change the ownership of an external hard disk?
[01:22] <jrib> Lorne_Kun: what filesystem?
[01:23] <Lorne_Kun> ext3
[01:23] <Lorne_Kun> i used gparted to wipe the drives
[01:23] <Lorne_Kun> and reformat them as ext3
[01:23] <Lorne_Kun> but i still cant write to them
[01:23] <jrib> Lorne_Kun: use chown on the mounted partition just like you would do with any other file on your system
[01:23] <jrib> !permission > Lorne_Kun (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:24] <Lorne_Kun> the drives are blank atm....
[01:24] <jrib> Lorne_Kun: that shouldn't matter
[01:25] <fnf> Can anyone tell me how to play RealMedia files with totem (gstreamer or xine are both ok) ?.
[01:25] <Mandavi>  hi, i am using firefox and have the problem that when english, geman and hebrew are installed as OS languages, all the dictionaries of all german and english dialects are installed. in total 9 dictionaries and also things like en_GB, en_ZA und en_US - in total now 18 entries - but i only need three - how do i get rid of all the other entries?
[01:26] <jrib> Lorne_Kun: if you mount it to /media/new_drive for example, you could just do 'sudo chown foobar: /media/new_drive' or chmod if you want to setup permissions a bit differently
[01:27] <Mandavi> fnf: as far as i know, you can't - but you can install realplayer
[01:27] <fnf> Mandavi: realplay crashed for me the last time I tried, I can compile mplayer but prefer not to do so. VLC also crashed.
[01:27] <sjoerd_> is here ANYONE how has Ventrilo 2.1 working on linux?
[01:28] <jrib> !realplayer > fnf (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:28] <jrib> fnf: mplayer is in the repos
[01:28] <Lorne_Kun> one last thing
[01:28] <fabrizio> ciao a tutti
[01:28] <Lorne_Kun> what does the directory "lost+found" do?
[01:29] <Pici> Lorne_Kun: it holds things found by fsck
[01:29] <fnf> jrib: sure, but the stock mplayer doesn't have proper support for *.ram and *.rm files.
[01:29] <bionoid> Lorne_Kun: In case of filesystem damage, fsck puts "lost files" in there
[01:30] <jrib> fnf: if you install w32codecs, it should be able to play them
[01:30] <fnf> jrib: w32codecs is not available in the repos.
[01:30] <jrib> !w32codecs > fnf (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:30] <Mandavi> fnf - search for ubuntuguide - there you will find a manual
[01:30] <Lorne_Kun> ok
[01:30] <bionoid> fnf: add this to your /etc/apt/sources.list: deb http://packages.medibuntu.org/ feisty free non-free
[01:30] <Lorne_Kun> i did sudo chown lorne: /media/disk
[01:31] <Lorne_Kun> i think i did it wrong
[01:31] <jrib> Lorne_Kun: why?
[01:31] <Lorne_Kun> because it now says the owner of the volume is unknown.
[01:31] <jrib> Lorne_Kun: what is your username?
[01:31] <Lorne_Kun> lorne
[01:31] <Swat2> ok
[01:31] <Mandavi> fnf: ah - no, forget about it - it is also not in the repos - it's broken...
[01:31] <fnf> Mandavi: I've looked through the guides, and searched for it for quite sometimes. totem-gstreamer is 'rumored' to be able to play, but not.
[01:32] <fnf> bionoid: thanks for the link, I'll have a look.
[01:32] <Swat2> stupid question, where can i find the ubuntu .deb's for the latest available kernel in the ubuntu repositories
[01:32] <solowlr> how do reset the vino (vnc for gnome) password via CLI?
[01:32] <cypherdelic> nvidia-settings -l && sleep 2 && compiz --replace --sm-disable --indirect-rendering ccp & emerald --replace &
[01:32] <bionoid> fnf: The simplest way, by far, is to install vlc, it handles most codecs out-of-the-box
[01:32] <ninja> hi
[01:32] <jrib> Lorne_Kun: I don't see why it would do that... what does 'ls -ld /media/disk' return?
[01:32] <Bfresh> hi
[01:32] <bionoid> fnf: (apt-get install vlc)
[01:32] <jakub_> hi
[01:32] <fnf> bionoid: VLC crashed the last time I tried, not sure if it is fixed now.
[01:32] <ninja> does everyone know how to configure lucent modem on feisty
[01:32] <cypherdelic>  Unbekannte Option --indirect-rendering
[01:33] <cypherdelic> that doesnt work
[01:33] <fnf> bionoid: the bug is still searchable in launchpad I belienve.
[01:33] <ninja> does someone know how to configure lucent modem on feisty
[01:33] <sjoerd_> is here ANYONE how has Ventrilo 2.1 working on linux?
[01:33] <bionoid> fnf: OK,. well, mplayer should be a breeze to install if you add the medibuntu repository

[01:33] <Lorne_Kun> that would be why.

[01:35] <Lorne_Kun>  k i did it without the :
[01:35] <Lorne_Kun> and it still say the owner is unknown
[01:35] <jrib> jakub_: chown foo: bar makes  chown use foo for the name and the group
[01:35] <jrib> Lorne_Kun: what does 'echo $USER' return?

[01:37] <jrib> jakub_: right
[01:38] <jrib> Lorne_Kun: what does 'getent passwd lorne' return?
[01:38] <Lorne_Kun> lorne:x:1000:1000:Lorne,,,:/home/lorne:bin/bash
[01:38] <sjoerd_> is here ANYONE how has Ventrilo 2.1 working on linux?
[01:39] <jrib> Lorne_Kun: what exactly is giving you the error message?
[01:39] <Lorne_Kun> its not giving me an "error message" persay
[01:39] <Lorne_Kun> but shouldnt it say that the new owner of the volume is "lorne" rather than "unknown"
[01:39] <jrib> Lorne_Kun: what is "it"?
[01:39] <Lorne_Kun> oh for gods sake.
[01:39] <Lorne_Kun> NOW the property page shows that im the owner.

[01:41] <ubotu> Lorne_Kun: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[01:41] <Lorne_Kun> and it set the owner to root.
[01:42] <Lorne_Kun> jrib: sorry, i hit enter by accident :)
[01:42] <jrib> Lorne_Kun: ls -ld /media/disk-1    confirms that?
[01:42] <Lorne_Kun> hm
[01:42] <Lorne_Kun> it doesnt say anything about root.
[01:42] <jrib> Lorne_Kun: hit "reload" in nautilus, then check

[02:08] <rohan> a friend of mine wants to install ubuntu .. he was asking if ubuntu installer of 7.04 automatically suggests a partition scheme after resizing existing partitions, without causing data loss ?
[02:08] <SBAN> hello
[02:08] <Wolfwalker> After resizing partitions? Why would it suggest a scheme after the job is already done?
[02:09] <Wolfwalker> But yes, you can select to resize the existing partition, then have it use the space freed up and it will write its own partitions.
[02:10] <ubuntuEdgy> ?
[02:10] <Wolfwalker> !
[02:10] <ubuntuEdgy> delete the file
[02:10] <ubuntuEdgy> thats how you fix it
[02:10] <rohan> Wolfwalker: no, he has a 80gb disk, with 2 partitions for windows, and he is asking whether the installer will automatically resize the partitions without causing data loss ?
[02:10] <ubuntuEdgy> you will thewn have a new one
[02:11] <Wolfwalker> |rohan:| Tough call. Usually yes, but any partition resize is always risky.
[02:11] <rohan> Wolfwalker: actually, he is a new to linux, and this is his first install. so i wondering whether ubuntu suggests a proper partitioning scheme, that doesn't cause data loss ?
[02:11] <Wolfwalker> No
[02:12] <Jack_Sparrow> rohan, noone can gurantee that
[02:12] <Wolfwalker> Why two partitions for WIndows? Is he running XP and Vista?
[02:12] <rohan> Wolfwalker: shit .. so he'll need to do the partitioninh himself ?
[02:12] <rohan> Wolfwalker: one for xp, and the other for data
[02:12] <matti> :)
[02:12] <Wolfwalker> What's so hard about doing the partitioning?
[02:12] <rohan> documents, games etc
[02:12] <b0ha> how can i remove partitions icons from desktop?
[02:12] <Wolfwalker> Ubuntu's live cd comes with a very easy to use partitioner
[02:12] <Jack_Sparrow> rohan, he does not need to do the partitioning, just leave unallocated space and let the installer do the rest, I know semantics..
[02:12] <Wolfwalker> If I can use it, it's VERY easy to use.
[02:13] <rohan> b0ha: in gconf2 apps -> nautilus -> desktop -> mounted volume icons
[02:13] <rohan> Jack_Sparrow: no, on his 80gb hdd, there is no unallocated space
[02:13] <rohan> Wolfwalker: ah, so alteast it supports resizing windows partitions, right ?
[02:13] <Wolfwalker> So resize the largest one
[02:13] <Wolfwalker> Yes
[02:13] <rohan> i always use the alternate kubuntu cd, so i wouldn't know :-/
[02:13] <Wolfwalker> It resizes any format I've found yet
[02:13] <Jack_Sparrow> rohan, which is why I said semantics..  He does need to shrink existing partitions, but he does not need to make any
[02:14] <Wolfwalker> Ahhh, THAT explains it!
[02:14] <SPY> wooot: so grub is gone foreva
[02:14] <SPY> back to good ole windoze :D
[02:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Spy... enjoy..
[02:14] <Wolfwalker> No, the live cd boots up a full Ubuntu system from the disk, and the installer can be told to just use unallocated space and set its own partitions.
[02:15] <b0ha> rohan where or what is gconf2 ?
[02:15] <SPY> never again shall i use ubuntu sadly :|
[02:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Spy... So... Goodbye
[02:15] <SPY> with that, thanks for you help & hope you enjoy it while you can :)
[02:15] <Wolfwalker> And there's a little slider bar when you choose to resize partions, it just shows you how much you have on each side of the division.
[02:15] <Wolfwalker> What's up with you Spy? You on a bender or something?
[02:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Obviously he had already made up his mind
[02:16] <Wolfwalker> Yeah, but why be so noisy about it?
[02:16] <Wolfwalker> Anyway.......
[02:17] <rohan> thanks Wolfwalker
[02:17] <Jack_Sparrow> If he is not going to use it and not ask for help, say goodbye and good luck
[02:17] <Wolfwalker> |rohan:| the live Ubuntu cd is very, extremely easy to use. Everything is self-explanatory.
[02:17] <rohan> Wolfwalker: if he can do it himself, it's great
[02:17] <rohan> Wolfwalker: perfect :)
[02:17] <Jack_Sparrow> rohan, yes, very easy to use
[02:17] <Wolfwalker> Just tell him NOT to tell it to use the whole 80 gigabyte hard drive :P
[02:17] <Wolfwalker> Other than that........ piece of cake
[02:17] <rohan> Wolfwalker: hehe, already told him that :D
[02:18] <Wolfwalker> Back up all files first of course
[02:18] <Wolfwalker> Any repartitioning is risky
[02:18] <Jack_Sparrow> rohan, I personally tell people to shrink their partitions, not add any, then back out of the installer and tell it to use unallocated space..
[02:18] <rohan> Wolfwalker: had i told him that, he wouldn'tve tried ubuntu
[02:18] <Wolfwalker> If you DON'T tell him that there's about a 5% he will lose all date
[02:18] <Wolfwalker> data too
[02:19] <rohan> Jack_Sparrow: ah ok, i'll tell him that once he gets to the partition screen
[02:19] <rohan> if i were there with him, then it wouldn't have been a problem .. but i've never used the gui installer
[02:19] <Wolfwalker> So use it on a test dummy computer
[02:19] <Jack_Sparrow> It is easier than trying to have him make the partitions himself
[02:20] <Wolfwalker> Jack_Sparrow, aren't there screenshots of the install process?
[02:20] <Wolfwalker> I remember seeing them somewhere
[02:20] <CyberMad> does anyone know how to install qt3 with include/qglobal.h ? because checking Qt version... grep: /usr/share/qt4/include/qglobal.h: No such file or directory     I already install qt3: apt-get install qt3-dev-tools
[02:20] <OmegaCenti> Can I install Ubuntu to a rather large USB flash drive so I can install it on my other laptop and erase the current contents the soon to be wipedout laptop?
[02:20] <Jack_Sparrow> I am sure there are somewhere.
[02:20] <Jack_Sparrow> Omega, yes there are instructions for that
[02:20] <rohan> OmegaCenti: why not use the cd on both the laptops ?
[02:21] <Wolfwalker> |OmegaCenti:| you're talking about one LARGE flash drive there :P
[02:21] <OmegaCenti> I don't have CD's
[02:21] <Manny_> manny: please change your nickname, or I'll have to kill you
[02:21] <OmegaCenti> ive got a gig stick
[02:21] <Wolfwalker> OmegaCenti, download the iso and burn it off
[02:21] <rohan> Wolfwalker: large ? a 1gb drive would suffice
[02:21] <rohan> Manny_: go ahead, ghost him, it's fun watching :D
[02:21] <Manny_> rohan: ;)
[02:22] <Manny> rohan: now that was fun wasn't it?
[02:22] <Wolfwalker> Okay, that could get old
[02:22] <Wolfwalker> lol

It is 2 years old, and it seems to have a fiew problems with it. However, there are 600Mb of stuff I would like to get off of it before I erase it completely and install Ubuntu on it. Walkthgrough help on this would be apprciated.

[02:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Can I assume it is a windows install you are trying to save data from?
[02:29] <brandon_> hold on
[02:30] <redheat> hi everyone
[02:30] <rohan> Jack_Sparrow: yes, a windows install .. i don't know which partition type, though
[02:30] <etalli> hi redheat
[02:30] <redheat> people, is this the place to ask question about Ubuntu 7.04?
[02:30] <Jack_Sparrow> rohan, dosent matter..
[02:30] <rohan> redheat: yes it is :)
[02:30] <redheat> hello etalli
[02:30] <brandon_> realtech alc655
[02:30] <redheat> finally
[02:30] <redheat> :)
[02:30] <brandon_> or something another
[02:30] <OmegaCenti> Jack_Sparrow: Tools available: A network(wirless/wired), 1 gig flash drive (eraseable) another laptop (I don't want to harm it) and the laptop to be erased sompeletly after I get 600MB off of it
[02:30] <OmegaCenti> Jack_Sparrow: nope, its on my linux partition
[02:31] <rohan> Jack_Sparrow: ok.. and there's a dead easy way to resize it, correct ?
[02:31] <redheat> ok I'm really really having a hard time getting ubuntu to see my video card
[02:31] <redheat> I have a XFX 8600 GT video card connected to a 20" Viewsonic VX2025wm LCD monitor.
[02:31] <frandavid100> hi guys
[02:31] <redheat> I just made a fresh installation
[02:31] <redheat> oh hi
[02:31] <redheat> of Ubuntu..
[02:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Omega...  Is there a CD drive in the laptop you want to recover?
[02:32] <OmegaCenti> Jack_Sparrow: no
[02:32] <redheat> I mean this is the first thing I do after I just installed Ubuntu
[02:32] <frandavid100> do you know the name of a program used to connect your PC to a mobile phone and get notifications of incoming calls and stuff?
[02:32] <OmegaCenti> Jack_Sparrow: Well, yes there is.. but I hjave no CD's
[02:32] <redheat> First question: how do I change the resolution?
[02:32] <Jack_Sparrow> OmegaCenti: DOes that windows os boot?
[02:32] <frandavid100> I know it exists but I can't remember the name
[02:32] <xoRock> does ubuntu have forum?
[02:32] <redheat> the resolution is set to 1024x768
[02:32] <OmegaCenti> Jack_Sparrow: yes
[02:32] <redheat> while my monitor can support up to 1680x1050
[02:33] <redheat> I went to the screen resolution part and tried to change it but to no avail
[02:33] <redheat> it won't change
[02:33] <Jack_Sparrow> OmegaCenti: Why not just Use the windows os and save your data to the usb...
[02:33] <redheat> I went to the xorg.conf file tried to change it
[02:33] <redheat> but it won't
[02:33] <OmegaCenti> Jack_Sparrow: you win.
[02:33] <OmegaCenti> thanks
[02:33] <redheat> sorry, I meant it did
[02:33] <OmegaCenti> brb
[02:33] <redheat> guys is anyone following me?
[02:33] <rohan> xoRock: ubuntuforums.org
[02:33] <rohan> redheat: whic video card do you have /
[02:33] <fedupwithwindows> redheat: i am.. i have the same problem :P
[02:34] <redheat> I have a XFX 8600 GT video card
[02:34] <xoRock> thxs
[02:34] <redheat> hi Fed, this whole problem is driving me crazy
[02:34] <Jack_Sparrow> redhat, yes... you dont have the drivers installed, you are running default driver.. to go above that res you need specific driver
[02:34] <redheat> first of all, how do I enable the restricted drivers manager
[02:34] <Azul> redheat: you want to change resolution?
[02:35] <redheat> ok, Jack, the problem is the moment I install the driver, the BETA nvidia drivers either using Tselio AlberMolino's way or Nvidia's way
[02:35] <Wolfwalker> |redheat:| what version Ubuntu you using?
[02:35] <redheat> my resolution changes immediately to 640x480 and my monitor becomes called DFP
[02:35] <Jack_Sparrow> OmegaCenti: Your next step would be to put the usb in the other computer and save the data to it, then do the usb install of Ubuntu on the first system
[02:35] <redheat> 7.04
[02:36] <Muelli> Hi guys. Does anyone have experiences with DualHead on an intel chip?
[02:36] <PriceChild> !anyone | Muelli
[02:36] <ubotu> Muelli: 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?
[02:36] <redheat> Wolfwalker, I have 7.04
[02:36] <Wolfwalker> |redheat:| Admin > restricted drivers
[02:36] <redheat> yes sir,
[02:36] <Azul> redhat: go to Section "Screen" in xorg.conf and add the resolution to the list
[02:36] <redheat> I haven't installed any drivers yet, Wolf.
[02:36] <OmegaCenti> Jack_Sparrow: will do and I will confirm when the transfer is complete.
[02:36] <PriceChild> Wolfwalker, redheat, by the way... that won't work for the 8600
[02:36] <Wolfwalker> Your video driver should be waiting there for you to install
[02:36] <redheat> why?
[02:36] <Wolfwalker> Oh
[02:37] <Azul> redhat: you have to install the drivers first
[02:37] <Wolfwalker> Oh well, disregard what I said :/
[02:37] <PriceChild> Wolfwalker, redheat, The 8600 came out after feisty was released and as such there is no support for it.
[02:37] <redheat> shute
[02:37] <Wolfwalker> Right
[02:37] <Wolfwalker> Bang!
[02:37] <redheat> but wait, let me tell you this
[02:37] <PriceChild> Wolfwalker, redheat, if you want 3d acceleration, then I'm afraid you'll have to use the .run from nvidia.com... but *steers clear*
[02:37] <Muelli> PriceChild: whats your problem about my question? I'm looking for someone who has set up DualHead with i810....
[02:37] <Wikkedfin^> Wolfwalker, your 3d is broken?
[02:37] <Wolfwalker> Nope
[02:37] <Agiofws> whats the minimum free space you need for ubuntu to install
[02:38] <Agiofws> ?
[02:38] <PriceChild> Muelli, what is your real question? Just because I haven't done it doesn't mean I won't know how to help
[02:38] <Agiofws> hello
[02:38] <PriceChild> Agiofws, "about" 2Gb...
[02:38] <redheat> Price, no it worked, I mean the drivers install correctly the Beta ones by nvidia they install correctly, but only the monitor is seen as
[02:38] <redheat> DFP monitor
[02:38] <PriceChild> Agiofws, get 4 at least....
[02:38] <etalli> Agiofws  It depends how many packages you are installing
[02:38] <Wolfwalker> |Agiofws:| Depends on your options selected.
[02:38] <etalli> Agiofws, how much do you have?
[02:38] <PriceChild> redheat, exactly.... you're used the beta ones, not the ones packaged by ubuntu
[02:38] <redheat> you know...
[02:39] <PriceChild> redheat, I was just saying that what the guy was guiding you to (restricted driver manager) wouldn't work.
[02:39] <Agiofws> whats the default  ?
[02:39] <redheat> guys can I tell you something
[02:39] <CVirus> I just installed ubuntu intel_x86 on an AMD64 machine ... what might happen ?
[02:39] <fedupwithwindows> where do you check what monitor ubuntu is detecting?
[02:39] <Wolfwalker> |redheat:| fire when ready
[02:39] <redheat> when I put together this system
[02:39] <etalli> Agiofws, how much space do you have free?
[02:39] <Jack_Sparrow> CVirus: It wont run as well as the amd version
[02:39] <Wolfwalker> |CVirus:| why not boot it up and see? :D
[02:39] <PriceChild> redheat, have you used the nvidia-settings manager? It might let you easily choose the correct res.
[02:39] <redheat> which is a GA-965P-DS3 mobo, xfx 8600 GT card almost a whole new system
[02:40] <redheat> and then installed three operating systems
[02:40] <CVirus> Wolfwalker: in case crap might happen .. then I guess i'll install the correct version ... it is still installing actually .. not done yet
[02:40] <Wolfwalker> Ahhh
[02:40] <brandon_> can anyone help me with a sound problem
[02:40] <redheat> WIndows xp pro, windows vista business and Ubuntu and then installed the old nvidia drivers 100.14.09 and for the first time
[02:40] <Wolfwalker> If it is already running from a live cd, then it will run
[02:40] <redheat> they worked fine
[02:40] <Wolfwalker> lol
[02:40] <redheat> I mean really fine and I even downloaded peryl and everything went ok
[02:40] <Wolfwalker> Unless you're using an alternate install cd
[02:41] <PriceChild> brandon_, what's wrong?
[02:41] <Jack_Sparrow> CVirus: I did that by mistake once.  Didnt run bad, did it the other way amd on intel and wouldnt run
[02:41] <brandon_> only one program can use sound ata time
[02:41] <redheat> until one doomed day when I decided to connect my Sony Bravia HDTV to my computer..
[02:41] <Jack_Sparrow> brandon_: normal...
[02:41] <brandon_> if i have a program running that uses sound.... no other program can use it
[02:41] <MrMist> Hi all. I'm having problems with lockd with NFS. Anyone care to help ?? http://sial.org/pbot/25981
[02:41] <Sonicadvance1> Oi, anyone know how to route internet from one LAN card to another? :D
[02:42] <redheat> and I fortunately did that connection wrongfully. See my video card has dual link DVI which are supposed to give only digital signal..
[02:42] <Jack_Sparrow> brandon_: Read up on alsa.. there is a way around that..
[02:42] <PriceChild> brandon_, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting#head-882ddc981673f44656e4f791858e9a586a007705
[02:42] <Wikkedfin^> ubuntu or opensuse?
[02:42] <brandon_> i remember doing something with alsa on freebsd but i cant remember
[02:42] <redheat> so I used a dvi-to-component cable that is digital to analog with no adapter..
[02:42] <Wolfwalker> |Okay:| redheat so far it sounds like you totally blew out your video card.
[02:42] <redheat> and since then or right
[02:42] <Azul> brandon_: read about software mixing
[02:42] <redheat> after that..
[02:42] <brandon_> software mixing with also?
[02:42] <brandon_> alsa*
[02:42] <Azul> brandon_: you might go through hell doing that
[02:42] <Jack_Sparrow> !alsa | branon
[02:42] <redheat> Wolf, the problem is the card is working like a charm under windows vista and xp
[02:42] <Azul> just to let ou know
[02:42] <ubotu> branon: 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
[02:43] <Azul> brandon_: look for software mixing
[02:43] <Azul> it's better than alsa
[02:43] <brandon_> ok
[02:43] <redheat> since then its not working correctly
[02:43] <brandon_> ty azul
[02:43] <redheat> under ubuntu..
[02:43] <ortio> how do i install new icons in gnome
[02:43] <Azul> np
[02:43] <Sonicadvance1> dododo
[02:44] <Azul> ortio: right-click > create launcher
[02:44] <redheat> Ok, you wanna know something funny, one of the dvi connection sees my monitor as Generic Monitor, the other as Viewsonic monitor..
[02:44] <redheat> can you believe this?
[02:44] <Jack_Sparrow> ortio: Look at gnome-look.org for icon themes
[02:44] <ortio> Azul: i meant install a new icon theme
[02:44] <redheat> so anyhow, guys, I need to ask you a question, to both Pricechild and Wolf, how do I enable the restricted drivers
[02:44] <Jack_Sparrow> ortio: Just drag and drop onto the theme manager
[02:44] <etalli> ortio:  System>Preferances>Themes  Then click Customize, go to the Icons Tab, and click install
[02:45] <ortio> Jack_Sparrow: thanks, but i already download one
[02:45] <Azul> ortio: what Jack_Sparrow said
[02:45] <etalli> Or do that.
[02:45] <redheat> because I always get the message, your hardware needs no restricted drivers
[02:45] <redheat> did
[02:45] <chee> hi Captain Jack_Sparrow
[02:45] <redheat> hello

[02:46] <Wolfwalker> Grrrrr! I wish someone would devote his life and an IRC channel to telling people what the best deal is on a laptop that is great and at a very low price. Then everyone could ask HIM and leave the rest of us alone.
[02:46] <Jack_Sparrow> OmegaCenti: np, you see where this is all going
[02:46] <etalli> ortio:  That's its whole point!  :)

[02:48] <ubotu> Wikkedfin^: 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.
[02:48] <PriceChild> ortio, put them into ~/.icons
[02:48] <PriceChild> redheat, you've installed them though haven't you?
[02:48] <PriceChild> redheat, I thought you said you got the beta ones off nvidia.com and installed them/
[02:48] <redheat> which ones Price?
[02:48] <PriceChild> redheat, well then you have them?
[02:49] <Wikkedfin^> ?
[02:49] <PriceChild> redheat, I'm sorry, I'm really lagging atm
[02:49] <Davey_Jones> brandon_: exactly
[02:49] <jgonzalez> hi there, is there any way to change the umask for an automounted usb flash drive?
[02:49] <redheat> I can install them right away
[02:49] <redheat> no problem
[02:49] <PriceChild> redheat, I can, but i'm lagging and you may not be getting this.
[02:49] <redheat> I am getting this..
[02:49] <PriceChild> redheat, so you have installed the restricted drivers right?
[02:49] <redheat> lag is so obvious
[02:49] <PriceChild> redheat, _You said_ you installed the nvidia beta drivers.
[02:49] <OmegaCenti> Jack_Sparrow: Alright its transferred.
[02:49] <redheat> Actually I was talking about the nvidia Beta drivers, you know the 100.14..somthing..
[02:50] <OmegaCenti> Jack_Sparrow: So now what?
[02:50] <redheat> is that what they're called Restricted?
[02:50] <Wikkedfin^> PriceChild,  can i help you?
[02:50] <redheat> I though restricted were the ones released by ubuntu?
[02:50] <PriceChild> redheat, well then you have them installed fine...? Just add resolutions to /etc/X11/xorg.conf and you're happy.
[02:50] <redheat> sort of a default driver
[02:50] <Jack_Sparrow> OmegaCenti: So are you trying to install on a usb or from a usb onto a hard drive..
[02:50] <rohan> redheat: no, they're the nvidia/ati ones, but packaged by ubuntu
[02:50] <PriceChild> Wikkedfin^, I'm lagging sorry, that was from something you said a long time ago.
[02:50] <OmegaCenti> Jack_Sparrow: uh...?
[02:50] <redheat> Price, rohan, is envy enough for installing them..
[02:51] <Pici> !envy
[02:51] <ubotu> 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!
[02:51] <redheat> do I need to install anything before I install them?
[02:51] <rohan> redheat: ubotu said it all :)
[02:51] <Wolfwalker> Break is bad

[02:51] <Jack_Sparrow> OmegaCenti: You want to install Ubuntu on the first laptop that has no cd using the flash drive correct?
[02:51] <PriceChild> !envy | redheat
[02:51] <ubotu> redheat: please see above
[02:51] <OmegaCenti> Jack_Sparrow: Im on a computer running ubuntu with a lack of CD's. I have a 1GiB usb at my disposal. I want ubuntu on the usb so I can install it to the other laptop.
[02:51] <PriceChild> redheat, You say you have installed them though??!!?!?!?
[02:51] <Wolfwalker> |OmegaCenti:| Good luck :P
[02:51] <rohan> OmegaCenti: ahh.. you want to boot from usb to install ubuntu ?
[02:52] <Jack_Sparrow> OmegaCenti: Thinking..
[02:52] <stiev> I'm currently logged into a computer suffering from "mouse moves, but screen frozen" disease via ssh.  I'm running top, and i see compiz.real at 99.9% cpu usage.  What do I do?  "sudo killall compiz.real" has failed as well as alt+sysrq+f.
[02:52] <redheat> I did that in a previous install, before this fresh one..
[02:52] <Davey_Jones> OmegaCenti: i don't think it works that way
[02:52] <redheat> right now, I did not install any drivers or anything at all
[02:52] <etalli> Bonjour, e
[02:52] <ortio> oke Jack_Sparrow where can i find themes for the desktop
[02:52] <redheat> I just installed Ubuntu and then updated it ..
[02:52] <Wolfwalker> Can you do that, booting from the iso file instead of the image cd?
[02:52] <etalli> ssorry
[02:52] <Jack_Sparrow> OmegaCenti: What is your partition setup on the working Ubuntu install
[02:52] <craigbass1976> Where can I find system requirements for Xubuntu.  Everybody is asleep in #xubuntu
[02:52] <OmegaCenti> Thinking isn't sure.
[02:52] <ortio> not the icons ones
[02:52] <redheat> and I'm using the IRC client to chat with you guys

[02:53] <craigbass1976> redheat, how do you like it so far?
[02:53] <n2diy_> Jack_Sparrow: OmegaCenti, can the laptop boot from USB? Just put the ISO on the USB.
[02:53] <Davey_Jones> Wolfwalker: i never heard of bios chips that allow booting off an iso file
[02:53] <redheat> ?
[02:53] <redheat> you mean Ubuntu?
[02:53] <Jack_Sparrow> OmegaCenti: It is a two sided question... you need to have bootable flash drive install of Ubuntu
[02:53] <Wolfwalker> Could be interesting though
[02:53] <redheat> awesome, and before this video card problem
[02:53] <craigbass1976> redheat, Ubuntu.  Is this your first trip in Ubuntu land?

[02:56] <PriceChild> redheat, You want 3d acceleration using the nvidia restricted drivers. Now your card is too new and will not work well with feisty.

[02:56] <Smotang> How do I change back my home folder so that it has the set permissions and ownership that it is meant to have??
[02:56] <PriceChild> ryl.
[02:56] <jgonzalez> Jack_Sparrow, I want to set more restrictive permissions on my usb disk, currently 766... I want to change them to 700, so I can store my ssh and gpg keys there
[02:56] <xoRock> rohan: /dev/sda1 on /media/disk type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,shortname=mixed,uid=1000,utf8,umask=077)
[02:56] <PriceChild> redheat, Finally... the X-Fi card is not supported by alsa... EOD... no discussion... doesn't work.
[02:56] <rohan> OmegaCenti: also check http://pendrivelinux.com/
[02:56] <rohan> xoRock: and /media/disk is your pen drive ?
[02:56] <Jack_Sparrow> OmegaCenti: It will help if you have only one system on each computer
[02:56] <MrKeuner> Smotang: as root chown youruser:yourgroup yourfolder -R
[02:56] <xoRock> rohan: yes
[02:56] <redheat> PriceChild, one question please
[02:56] <Wolfwalker> X-Fi is NEVER going to be supported. Stupid Creative.
[02:57] <PriceChild> !ask | redheat
[02:57] <OmegaCenti> Jack_Sparrow: what do you mean?
[02:57] <ubotu> redheat: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:57] <etalli> lacrymology: Check japanese support, it'll download
[02:57] <Lacrymology> etalli: sorry; on KDE
[02:57] <redheat> are there any driver for real tek integrated sound card
[02:57] <Jack_Sparrow> OmegaCenti: Same partitions on both
[02:57] <Lacrymology> oh
[02:57] <redheat> my mobo has an integrated new HD realtek soundcard in it..
[02:57] <PriceChild> redheat, yes and should work out of the box
[02:57] <Lacrymology> might have found it
[02:57] <Davey_Jones> rohan: execute fdisk -l to indentify your pen drive, don't blindly type that command.. you  might format other drives
[02:57] <etalli> you should really try #kubuntu
[02:57] <Jack_Sparrow> OmegaCenti: Not dual boot on one and only Ub on the other
[02:57] <OmegaCenti> Jack_Sparrow: That would be easy enough to set up
[02:57] <arjen_ubu> redheat: you're running in 1024x786 now?
[02:57] <Pici> !enter
[02:57] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[02:57] <Smotang> MrKeuner: Does that give that user permissions to read write and whatnot?
[02:57] <redheat> yes I am
[02:57] <OmegaCenti> Jack_Sparrow: both of these are going to be ubuntu only
[02:58] <OmegaCenti> I do just fine without windows
[02:58] <OmegaCenti> this one already is ubuntu only
[02:58] <etalli> Lacrymology: you should really try #kubuntu
[02:58] <redheat> if you excuse me guys? how do I change the color of chatting
[02:58] <Wolfwalker> |redheat:| If all else fails, get a USB stick soundcard. They're about five bucks if you know where to look.
[02:58] <Jack_Sparrow> OmegaCenti: Just wanted to be sure, hope you understand my point
[02:58] <jrib> Smotang: what does 'ls -ld ~' return?
[02:58] <arjen_ubu> redheat: i had the exact same, i too have an nvidia card, but its easy to fix :)
[02:58] <MrKeuner> Smotang: then you can modify each file by right clicking on them in Gnome and selecting the permissions tab
[02:58] <Wolfwalker> For better quality, get an iMic from Griffin
[02:58] <Davey_Jones> redhat: what client?
[02:58] <redheat> reallY
[02:58] <Smotang> d-------- pretty much
[02:58] <Wolfwalker> Yup
[02:58] <Smotang> I cannot logon and had to boot from livecd
[02:58] <dejx> ok i have sparc and ubuntu, and Setting up scroolkeeper is taking LOOONG time
[02:58] <jrib> Smotang: how did you do that?
[02:58] <dejx> REbuilding the database, this may take some time.
[02:58] <redheat> Price, Wolf, Roha, Ubuto, and Arjen..thank you so much guys
[02:58] <Wolfwalker> |redheat:| Want links?
[02:58] <Smotang> I dont know :( I was messing around
[02:58] <dejx> how long does that usually take_
[02:58] <dejx> ?
[02:59] <redheat> Wolf, me?
[02:59] <PriceChild> dejx, what is rebuilding the databse?
[02:59] <redheat> to which wesites?
[02:59] <Jack_Sparrow> OmegaCenti: Just need to ask, you have verified that you can boot to the usb on the first laptop
[02:59] <Smotang> bit of normal userish noobness bit of superuser noobness
[02:59] <dejx> PriceChild:
[02:59] <arjen_ubu> redheat: no problem, enjoy ubuntu ;)
[02:59] <MrKeuner> Smotang: d stands for a directory there
[02:59] <MrKeuner> Smotang: not delete :)
[02:59] <Smotang> ah
[02:59] <Wolfwalker> Amazon.com mostly, but you can get them anywhere
[02:59] <redheat> roger that
[02:59] <dejx> Ok
[02:59] <OmegaCenti> Jack_Sparrow: I don't know if I can
[02:59] <dejx> passed.
[02:59] <dejx> nevermind
[02:59] <dejx> while i was typing, cool:)
[02:59] <Jack_Sparrow> OmegaCenti: You need to verify you have that option
[02:59] <jrib> Smotang: chmod 755 /home/YOUR_USER
[02:59] <OmegaCenti> Jack_Sparrow: it has boot from romavable media and a boot from CD-ROM option.
[02:59] <Smotang> Can I change permissions from live cd?
[02:59] <jgonzalez> last try, don't wanna be kicked :)... hi there, is there any way to change the umask for an automounted usb flash drive? I want to set more restrictive permissions on my usb flash drive, currently 766... I want to change them to 700, so I can store my ssh and gpg keys there
[03:00] <Jack_Sparrow> OmegaCenti: brb..
[03:00] <jrib> Smotang: yes, or use 'recovery mode' from the grub menu
[03:00] <Wolfwalker> Here's a lot of USB soundcards, not to get off topic........ http://amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_gw/105-3311457-1142056?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=USB+soundcard&Go.x=0&Go.y=0&Go=Go
[03:00] <Davey_Jones> Smotang: you can change permission when you're root
[03:00] <Davey_Jones> doesn't matter
[03:00] <Wolfwalker> Any USB soundcard will work like a charm with Ubuntu
[03:00] <MrKeuner> Smotang: you can do evertything in liv ecd provided that you will loose them after reboot
[03:00] <stiev> Refining my question:  Screen is frozen, still hear music playing, mouse still moves.  I'm running top via an ssh connection.  Compiz.real is at 99.9% usage, can I kill it and if so, how?
[03:00] <Smotang> ah ok
[03:00] <Smotang> Rebooting now, wish me luck
[03:01] <Davey_Jones> stiev: killall compiz
[03:01] <Wolfwalker> And here's what I prefer for basic clear sound http://www.amazon.com/Griffin-iMic-USB-Audio-Interface/dp/B000BVV2IC/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/105-3311457-1142056?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1183467630&sr=8-1
[03:01] <Smotang> so its chmod smo:smo /home/smo -R
[03:01] <jrib> Smotang: no
[03:01] <MrKeuner> Smotang: chown
[03:01] <Smotang> ack
[03:01] <redheat> Wolf, before I go, you wanted links to what? just ask my friend?
[03:01] <Smotang> kk
[03:01] <Wolfwalker> Strictly plug-n-play
[03:01] <jrib> Smotang: chown for owner/group, chmod for actual permissions
[03:01] <Smotang> chown smo:smo /home/smo -R
[03:01] <Wolfwalker> No, I was asking if YOU wanted links to USB soundcards
[03:01] <Davey_Jones> stiev: or find the proper process with 'ps -ALL ' and 'killall' it
[03:01] <redheat> there's this website that keeps track of all things called www.tweakguides.com
[03:01] <redheat> thank you all
[03:01] <redheat> bye
[03:01] <charliko> any help with boot loader ... to prefer windows?
[03:01] <Smotang> and how do I add the permissions because currently I think I have removed them :(
[03:02] <Jack_Sparrow> OmegaCenti: brb..Sorry. too much coffee...  Lets assume it will boot to a usb.. Easy enough to test before killing off XP
[03:02] <jrib> Smotang: chmod 755 /home/YOUR_USER
[03:02] <Smotang> thanks
[03:02] <emoz> charliko, edit the grub menu
[03:02] <OmegaCenti> Jack_Sparrow: XP was already going to be killed regardless of bootability.
[03:02] <Smotang> wish me luck
[03:02] <Jack_Sparrow> OmegaCenti: Use the link to setup your usb with Ubuntu..
[03:02] <MrKeuner> Smotang for dirs you need chmod 770 if you do not want others to look in your folders
[03:02] <Wolfwalker> Why kill it? Dual boot is usually painless, and Wine doesn't run everything
[03:02] <OmegaCenti> Jack_Sparrow: Which link
[03:02] <charliko> that would be in an editor?
[03:03] <emoz> charliko, /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:03] <Jack_Sparrow> OmegaCenti: In doing that you will do the reverse to install it on the other laptop
[03:03] <emoz> open it with gedit or what ever
[03:03] <Jack_Sparrow> http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-install-ubuntu-linux-on-usb-bar
[03:03] <emoz> cut the windows bit and put it first
[03:03] <Wolfwalker> oooh!
[03:03] <Wolfwalker> Thanks Jack_Sparrow

[03:04] <Genomsaren> if a software crshes I press CTRL ALT DEL in windows
[03:04] <Genomsaren> is there any key like tihs in ubunut?
[03:05] <Jack_Sparrow> Genomsaren: ctrl-alt-backspace
[03:05] <Pici> Genomsaren: no.
[03:05] <Jack_Sparrow> restarts x
[03:05] <jrib> Genomsaren: system -> administration -> system monitor, or use 'xkill' and click on the offending app
[03:05] <kbrooks> Jack_Sparrow, no need to suggest that.
[03:05] <xoRock> bash: mkfs.fat: command not found
[03:05] <Davey_Jones> Genomsaren: press CTRL ALT F1, log in and kill the process
[03:05] <craigbass1976> Genomsaren, yeah, you do a ps -ef in a terminal and kill the process with a kill command
[03:05] <Davey_Jones> Genomsaren: there are many things you can do in case of crash
[03:05] <kbrooks> er, everyone else
[03:05] <jrib> heh 10 different ways :)
[03:06] <Jack_Sparrow> kbrooks: It is the equivalent command for the three finger salute.. not that he will need it
[03:06] <OmegaCenti> 22 minutes to go
[03:06] <OmegaCenti> bbl
[03:06] <Genomsaren> there is a software with GUI where you can see processes. It comes with ubuntu
[03:06] <craigbass1976> Genomsaren, so if firefox is borking, you do ps -ef | grep firefox, then kill based on PID (kill 4059 if 4059 is the PID)  or you can just pkill firefox
[03:06] <stiev> the PID of the process compiz.real is 5681, however when I do a "killall 5681" i get the message "5681: no process killed" top still shows 99.9% usage on compiz.real
[03:06] <jrib> Genomsaren: right, that's the one I mentioned
[03:06] <kbrooks> craigbass1976, no...
[03:06] <dredhammer> hello can someone tell me where to find the gecko engine for wine, i am installing a program that complains it doesn't have it and wine goes to download the engine and hangs
[03:06] <Genomsaren> jrib: and may I give a shortcut key to this software?
[03:06] <Pici> stiev: try kill -9 4059 or whatever the pid is
[03:06] <craigbass1976> Genomsaren, kill -9 and pkill -9 are not nice, but effective.
[03:07] <craigbass1976> kbrooks, what?
[03:07] <dredhammer> i have looked for it on the wine sourceforge page
[03:07] <Genomsaren> jrib: like CTRLALTDEL?
[03:07] <dredhammer> but it never downloads
[03:07] <kbrooks> craigbass1976, you start firefox, but it is really a shell script. so you really want to kill off firefox-bin.
[03:07] <Davey_Jones> use kill -9 when everything else fails
[03:07] <Davey_Jones> this one kills the crap out of the program
[03:07] <Smotang> Hey, I would just like to thank the people that helped me before. the advice you gave me worked. thanks MrKeuner, jrib you guys are great!
[03:07] <jrib> Genomsaren: sure, but it's not too straightforward.  The command is 'gnome-system-monitor'.  If you are using metacity (default), you can create shortcuts for commands by using gconf-editor and going to /app/metacity
[03:07] <craigbass1976> Davey_Jones, Have you ever seen kill -9 not work?  Happened to me the other day on a Fedora box.  Weird
[03:07] <kbrooks> craigbass1976, er, i meant to add "a shell script that starts firefox-bin"
[03:08] <JimQode> craigbass1976, it sometimes happens.
[03:08] <Davey_Jones> craigbass1976: that IS weird
[03:08] <Genomsaren> all: thanks very much!!
[03:08] <Davey_Jones> never failed me

[03:08] <Davey_Jones> craigbass1976: but expect everything when on fedora
[03:08] <alext_> does anyone know what you need to do to make hibernate work after moving main partition and expanding the swap one?
[03:08] <primski> most of the time imposible to kill
[03:08] <craigbass1976> JimQode, what do you do in that case, if it's a live web server and rebooting isn't really an option?
[03:08] <craigbass1976> Davey_Jones, Oh, stop it....
[03:08] <kbrooks> primski, they will be killed.
[03:08] <Davey_Jones> lol
[03:08] <JimQode> craigbass1976, well it was a shoutcast stream server actually and I had to reboot it.
[03:09] <primski> they will ? all by them selves ?
[03:09] <primski> what must u do ?
[03:09] <chadeldridge> How can i add the write to disk option to network file shares when i right click?
[03:09] <fedupwithwindows> i get an error saying gedit cant detect character coding when i try to install the Linux drivers provided by ATI, how can i solve this problem?
[03:09] <emoz> sounds like it aint a text file your trying to open fedupwithwindows
[03:10] <jrib> Genomsaren: I'd really recommend using 'xkill' or adding the 'force quit' applet to your panel though.  Basically, instead of having to search for a process name, you just run xkill or click on the panel applet and then click on the offending app
[03:10] <Pici> chadeldridge: Theres a few packages in the repos that have nautilus scripts, I dont remember the names off the top of my head but one of them has adds a shortcut to create a file share.
[03:10] <JimQode> fedupwithwindows, run the driver program from console
[03:10] <Sp4rKy> hi
[03:10] <Genomsaren> ok
[03:10] <Sp4rKy> does anyone know how split a dd output on 2G files ?
[03:11] <stiev> Whoah, that one definitely worked! haha now to somehow reset my windows manager etc cause my panels and windows decoration went with it.
[03:11] <chadeldridge> pici:  i will search ... basically i want the ability to write to cd from the smb network shares without having to copy the files to my machine to get the option
[03:11] <JimQode> Sp4rKy, man split :)
[03:11] <rausb0> Sp4rKy: pipe dd output to the split command
[03:11] <fedupwithwindows> emoz & JimQode: thank you both (im still not familiar with the linux aplications) =)
[03:11] <craigbass1976> Sp4rKy, explain what you're doing?  I just learned how to split a file with split, but I didn't pipe anything into it
[03:11] <Sp4rKy> rausb0: JimQode ok
[03:11] <craigbass1976> had to split a 14 gig log file
[03:11] <redheat> hi everyone
[03:12] <redheat> I just have one question, I'm trying to detect my video card and I just used this command sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:12] <arjen_ubu> Davey_Jones: hey i tried that command of your Ctrl-Alt-F1 and got stuck there for 5 mins
[03:12] <redheat> and the blues screen is asking me about my video card's bus identifies
[03:12] <redheat> hello
[03:12] <redheat> arjen..
[03:12] <a514> Hi does acpi work in fiesty? It hangs for me.
[03:13] <Davey_Jones> arjen_ubu: sorry, CTRL-ALT-F7 to get back
[03:13] <JimQode> arjen_ubu, you can return to X from a virtual console with Alt+f7
[03:13] <arjen_ubu> Davey_Jones: until i finally found out how to leave it, it jumps from process to process?
[03:13] <redheat> I was talking to you right now? right? you and Wolf
[03:13] <Sp4rKy> craigbass1976: i would do the same but with disk :)
[03:13] <redheat> right?
[03:13] <rausb0> redheat: you can omit the pci id in most cases
[03:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Problem with file size and dd...   http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/Dd
[03:13] <arjen_ubu> Davey_Jones: no worries, learned another thing, i finally found ctrl-alt-f7 myself ;)
[03:13] <rausb0> rausb0: i mean the bus id
[03:13] <Davey_Jones> arjen_ubu: this is if you want to do multiple tasks, you do them on different terminals
[03:14] <Davey_Jones> arjen_ubu: yeah, i wanted you to figure it out yourself ;)
[03:14] <arjen_ubu> Davey_Jones: hehe
[03:14] <dredhammer> does anyone know where i can find the winegecko.cab file? the sourceforge mirrors are dead
[03:14] <CyberMad> how to fix this error: configure: error: *** Couldn't find any Qt libraries  ?
[03:14] <fedupwithwindows> hum.. sorry, but how should i proceed to run the ATI driver program from the cosole? :S
[03:14] <rausb0> arjen_ubu: [ctrl] +[alt] +[Fn]  is generally for switching virtual consoles under linux
[03:15] <OmegaCenti> Replace everything starting with ATI, and susbstitute with Nvidia. Make the world a better place ;)
[03:15] <a514> 1 Q/A How do i fix the acpi sleep/wake for fiesty?! Justs shutdown & does not work ;( PLease help!@!
[03:15] <redheat> rausd I got this message xserver-xorg postinst warning: overwriting possibly-customised configuration
[03:15] <redheat>    file; backup in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.20070703161448
[03:15] <redheat> sorry I mean rausb
[03:15] <OmegaCenti> rausb0: that only when going from graphical to text consoles, in text consoles alt fn is all that is required.
[03:15] <OmegaCenti> arjen_ubu: read my comment to rausb0
[03:15] <arjen_ubu> rausb0: and how to close virtual consoles you do not use? like ttfy 1-6 just were default terminals, and the eight was the one running system services i think
[03:16] <OmegaCenti> arjen_ubu: you can exit each one of them, or if you want a more permanent one you can edit a file in your /etc
[03:16] <arjen_ubu> OmegaCenti:  when i did an exit i got prompted for username and password again
[03:17] <OmegaCenti> arjen_ubu:  same here, I forgot the command it seems
[03:17] <fedupwithwindows> do i have to use some sort of command to run the driver installer? or should it be enough just to type its name on the console (this one seems not to work)?
[03:17] <Pici> arjen_ubu: Do you have a specific reason as to why you want to close the virtual ttys?
[03:17] <Jack_Sparrow> fedupwithwindows: Were there instructions where you downloaded the driver?
[03:17] <arjen_ubu> Pici: dont they eat up system resources?
[03:18] <arjen_ubu> Pici:  i just tried all possible F-keys to see what they do
[03:18] <JimQode> arjen_ubu, not when you don't use them.
[03:18] <fedupwithwindows> Jack_Sparrow: yes, but only 3 lines of text and i didnt understand very well what they meant
[03:18] <arjen_ubu> ctrl-alt-f12 just shows a cursor nothing else
[03:18] <JimQode> fedupwithwindows, go to the directory of your downloaded file from console
[03:18] <arjen_ubu> JimQode: alright, thanks guys. Learned another thing today :)
[03:18] <OmegaCenti> arjen_ubu: they are in mode "sleep" in the processor. they don't use processor time
[03:19] <JimQode> fedupwithwindows, "./[driverfile] ". put ./ in front of file name
[03:19] <Jack_Sparrow> fedupwithwindows: It would help your cause to link them or ask your question about what you dont understand about the three lines
[03:19] <Pici> arjen_ubu: The system resources they are using are negligible.
[03:19] <arjen_ubu> are they always running?
[03:19] <Pici> arjen_ubu: yes.
[03:19] <arjen_ubu> ah okay
[03:19] <arjen_ubu> interesting
[03:20] <chadeldridge> Is there any way to get keyring to stop coming up when i go to SMB shares and just save my AD username and password
[03:20] <arjen_ubu> so if you open a default terminal you're actually in one of those virtual consoles?
[03:20] <Pici> arjen_ubu: I just sorted all of the processes on my system by usage and the vttys came out on the bottom of the list.
[03:20] <arjen_ubu> Pici:  let me try that too ;)
[03:21] <g[r] eek> hi am i correct in saying  that one _can_ have more than 1 networking card configured on a pc?
[03:21] <g[r] eek> im trying to configure my linux box to use both the onboard lan and an additional network card
[03:21] <passbe> with a clean format of ubuntu, poping in a cd into the cd drive, ubuntu wont automatically mount the cd like the previous version, does any body know how to fix this, link ?
[03:21] <fedupwithwindows> JimQode & Jack_Sparrow: ill try what Jim suggested, and bother you all with the help text that i didnt understand if i still cant make it work after that :P
[03:21] <chadeldridge> Pici:  i cant find anything like what you were talking about ... maybe i forgot to mention that i wanted to be able to right click ISO files and then click write to cd from the network... sorry
[03:21] <brainiac> Hi folks, how can I mount CloneCD images in ubuntu?
[03:22] <Pici> chadeldridge: oh.  I'm sorry, I can't think of anything that is pre-existing for that.
[03:22] <JimQode> brainiac, what is the file extention of clonecd images?
[03:22] <arjen_ubu> Pici: it's process name is sh? (for shell I assume)
[03:22] <chadeldridge> Pici:  is that just a limitation of linux ... or just no one has writen something ?
[03:22] <brainiac> JimQode, .mdf and mds
[03:23] <JimQode> brainiac, k3b burns mdf images
[03:23] <Pici> arjen_ubu: /sbin/getty
[03:23] <Pici> chadeldridge: just no one has written anything.
[03:23] <chadeldridge> thanks
[03:24] <brainiac> JimQode, burning is not the problem... I want to mount it...
[03:24] <Pici> brainiac: you'll need to convert them to iso images before you can mount.  See the following:
[03:24] <Pici> !iso | brainiac
[03:24] <ubotu> brainiac: 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.
[03:24] <JimQode> brainiac, you can use mdf2iso to convert it to an iso image then
[03:24] <fedupwithwindows> JimQode & Jack_Sparrow: it seems to work ^_^ it only complains that i have to run it as super user, but adding sudo before it should take care of that. Thank you both for the help =)
[03:24] <JimQode> fedupwithwindows, np ;) enjoy your drivers
[03:25] <rausb0> arjen_ubu: you do not close them. six text login consoles are standard. if for some reason your X server does not start, you will be happy to have text logins so you can fix the X problem.
[03:26] <jenda> Any idea why amarok stopped working after the last update?
[03:26] <jenda> Won't launch :(
[03:27] <jenda> Ubuntu Feisty.
[03:27] <JimQode> jenda, what does it say when you try to launch it from console?
[03:27] <stiev> jenda: n00b advice, launch from terminal, copy + paste error to google
[03:27] <jenda> no interesting errors there.
[03:27] <a514> hi i want to acpi suspend why does it not work ?
[03:28] <jenda> It just says its taking too long.
[03:28] <arjen_ubu> rausb0: thanks, that's very useful and smart!
[03:28] <jenda> "Amarok: [Loader]  Amarok is taking a long time to load! Perhaps something has gone wrong?"
[03:28] <jenda> a514: perhaps telling us which lappy you use would be a good start :)
[03:28] <amon__> When I go into Synaptic sections, there is one that says "checkinstall" - does this mean that the programs in that particular section are missing something, or ?
[03:28] <JimQode> jenda, well that's an error message :) google it
[03:28] <Smotang> jenda: Damn generic error message for the lose
[03:29] <jenda> a514: and then taking that laptop name and trying to search the ubuntuforums :)
[03:29] <a514> jenda it's a desktop :) lsmod lists asus_acpi
[03:29] <jenda> JimQode: Not very likely to find anything with that ;)
[03:29] <jenda> a514: ah
[03:29] <Smotang> how do I list processes that are running?
[03:29] <arjen_ubu> rausb0: yes seems 6 terminals, standard, 7 is X, 8 seems to be your running processes, 9-11 do nothing and 12 just shows a flashing cursor, not sure what it is
[03:29] <RevolutioN> hi all
[03:29] <jenda> a514: welll, I dunno :)
[03:29] <Pici> Smotang: ps aux
[03:29] <a514> jenda works in xp 100%
[03:29] <Pici> Smotang: or man ps to see what the other switches do
[03:30] <g[r] eek> hi am i correct in saying  that one _can_ have more than 1 networking card configured on a pc?
[03:30] <g[r] eek> im trying to configure my linux box to use both the onboard lan and an additional network card
[03:30] <Smotang> in the processes user 108 and 104 are what?
[03:30] <arjen_ubu> Pici: im not sure what you meant by /sbin/getty, do you want me to run it?
[03:30] <rausb0> arjen_ubu: vt 8 is for displaying boot messages i think
[03:31] <Pici> arjen_ubu: thats the name of the tty process
[03:31] <rausb0> arjen_ubu: vt > 8 is normally not used for anything. i usually put my syslog on vt 12, additional to the log file.
[03:32] <Nutubuntu> g[r] eek,  yes you are correct
[03:32] <rausb0> arjen_ubu: getty is the "login manager" for the consoles
[03:32] <arjen_ubu> rausb0 & Pici: thanks for the clarification, really useful to know
[03:32] <pike__> g[r] eek: yeah. you cant simply enable both at once though. that would mess up routing.
[03:33] <rausb0> arjen_ubu: "getty" asks for a user name and if one is given, it starts "login" to read and verify that user's password
[03:33] <rausb0> arjen_ubu: if "login" verified the password okay, it starts a login shell on that console. if this shell ends, getty is restarted on that console.
[03:34] <rausb0> arjen_ubu: the X based login procedure on vt 7 is somewhat different
[03:34] <chadeldridge> Anyone have cd burning application preferences ... i love nero ... sadly there is no nero for ubuntu
[03:35] <pike__> chadeldridge: k3b is the bells and whisltles burner for linux
[03:35] <erUSUL> chadeldridge: there is nero for linux but i recomend brasero or/and k3b (kde)
[03:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Burning... K3B
[03:35] <chadeldridge> thanks all
[03:35] <arjen_ubu> Pici: I don't see the /sbin/getty process tho but I do see something like gnome-vfs-daemon or is that something else?
[03:35] <Pici> arjen_ubu: thats something else.  Try `ps ax | grep tty`
[03:35] <Jack_Sparrow> chadeldridge: Be sure to run the setup inside to set the permissions
[03:36] <g[r] eek> pike_: ok just checking. because i cannot get my linux box to find the dhcp router, and i thought perhaps it was ebcause i had more than one network card. i guess it's just a configuration issue that i'll look into
[03:36] <chadeldridge> gotcha .. im gettin the package now
[03:37] <chadeldridge> hopefully its not flakey since its for kde
[03:37] <arjen_ubu> rausb0: thanks again! that's all i needed to know (and more) ;)
[03:37] <fedupwithwindows> i got a notice after installing my ATI drives that i should save my X Window configuration file and run aticonfig. I assuming this is the xorg.cfg that is often mentioned in this channel. Where can i find it so i can make a copy of it?
[03:37] <DarkED> question... i'm installing kubuntu-desktop... if i go with kdm now i can go back to gdm at a later date, yes?
[03:37] <fedupwithwindows> drivers*
[03:37] <dejx> how do i disable bell in console mode?
[03:37] <dejx> set.. something
[03:38] <Despereador> hi all
[03:38] <izzy_> Hi folks, I just have a simple question:
[03:38] <chadeldridge> k3b is very pretty .. i give it that
[03:38] <Despereador> how can I add usb hd on ubuntu
[03:38] <izzy_> I made a package for the universe repo - so how to get it in there?
[03:38] <chadeldridge> Despereador:  plug it in :-D
[03:38] <Despereador> it is
[03:38] <OmegaCenti> What does this mean when fdisking a usb drive? WARNING: Re-reading the partition table failed with error 22: Invalid argument.The kernel still uses the old table.The new table will be used at the next reboot.
[03:39] <Despereador> but I dont see it on the desktop
[03:39] <Pici> izzy_: you want it added to the ubuntu repos?
[03:39] <Despereador> it should be appear as usbdisk
[03:39] <izzy_> Pici: Yepp
[03:39] <chadeldridge> Despereador: you should have gotten an automount for it ... but some USB drives are a pain in the but to get working.  check your dmesg to make sure the device actually got detected ... and then lsusb to make sure its there
[03:39] <Despereador> Bus 004 Device 003: ID 1058:0901 Western Digital Technologies, Inc.
[03:39] <Pici> izzy_: Read this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/New
[03:40] <Pici> izzy_: also check out #ubuntu-motu
[03:40] <izzy_> Pici: I searched all around the web - but for Linux I didn't find any binaries. So I made a package out of it - it's GPL, so it could go in here.
[03:40] <CokeNCode> exit
[03:40] <CokeNCode> oops :$
[03:40] <izzy_> Pici: Thanx, will do!

[03:45] <jscinoz> Hey guys
[03:46] <jscinoz> I have two smbshares listed in /etc/fstab but no matter what i do i cant get write access on any user besides root, I've made a group entitled smbusers(gid=1003) added all 3 users to it and mentioned it in /etc/fstab but still no luck, what should i do now?
[03:48] <gordonjcp> jscinoz: are the mount points set to the right group, and set writeable?
[03:48] <bia_> hello everybody
[03:48] <jscinoz> gordon, i think so, heres the line from fstab: //readynas/media /media/readynas-media smbfs gid=smbusers 0 0
[03:49] <bia_> can anyone help with me getting root privileges to change folder permissions?
[03:49] <ponch_> ? on proftp command <limit>if someone can help out?
[03:49] <ponch_> what is this command RNRF
[03:49] <bia_> I've just installed Ubuntu, but can't seem to log in as anything else than a "regular" user
[03:49] <chadeldridge> bia_:  thats the way it is designed .. to get root access you have to sudo command
[03:50] <bia_> ok, that's in the terminal, right?
[03:50] <will> help
[03:50] <chadeldridge> yes
[03:50] <Pici> !ask | will
[03:50] <ubotu> will: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:50] <jscinoz> bia_ if you want to be able to edit system files and folders in the gui do alt-f2 then "gksu nautilus"
[03:50] <bia_> chadeldridge, from there, how do I change permissions for a folder?
[03:50] <jscinoz> that will open the file manager as root
[03:50] <will> lol i was looking for a list of help commands (im new to this lol)
[03:50] <jscinoz> bia_, from terminal do chmod numericpermission filepath
[03:51] <chadeldridge> bia_:  you can sudo chmod the folder i would assume .. if you are familiar with linux its the same command as before
[03:51] <Pici> will: help with what?
[03:51] <will> a list of chatrooms
[03:51] <bia_> not too familiar w/ linux
[03:51] <bia_> I'll try the gksu nautilus thing
[03:51] <Softsky> everyone learns soemtimes
[03:51] <chadeldridge> !chmod | bia_
[03:51] <ubotu> bia_: The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[03:51] <will> im used to a windows gui environment and know a bit about dos
[03:51] <Softsky> limux now is pretty user friendly
[03:51] <bia_> hang on, brb
[03:51] <Pici> will: This is the Ubuntu support channel.
[03:52] <will> i installed linux on my lappie and im pleased
[03:52] <abedo> hey all plz I need urgent help ,,,,
[03:52] <chadeldridge> !ask | abedo
[03:52] <ubotu> abedo: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:52] <abedo> I have to apply for programming competetion & I need an idea ...
[03:52] <Softsky> better ati support :)
[03:52] <Pici> abedo: ask in #ubuntu-offtopic.

[03:53] <llllllll> What can I use for telnet in ubuntu?
[03:53] <bia_> ok, serious problem
[03:53] <Pici> llllllll: telnet...
[03:53] <chadeldridge> bia_: problem is ?
[03:53] <Pici> llllllll: Are you looking to setup a server or telnet outbound?
[03:53] <bia_> I'm told "wrong password" when I enter my pw after "gksu nautilus"
[03:54] <llllllll> Pici: I just need a console or something so I can use telnet to configure my router
[03:54] <bia_> but I only registered one pw when I installed Ubuntu!
[03:54] <llllllll> I'm presuming ubuntu provides one
[03:54] <anolis> I forgot the program that i need to install so that i can have "Open console here" in my right click menu
[03:54] <llllllll> Never mind, looks like the terminal will do it
[03:55] <bia_> bizarre thing is, this pw is accepted in the terminal when I do "sudo su"
[03:55] <chadeldridge> bia_:  when you do a passwd are you able to change it with the password you "know"
[03:55] <bia_> chadeldridge, sorry, didn't get that
[03:55] <Pici> anolis: its a script for nautilus, I'm not sure of the exact package name but that should get you going with a search.
[03:55] <chadeldridge> bia_:  in terminal type passwd
[03:55] <bia_> ok will do
[03:56] <chadeldridge> bia_:  see if you can change the password using your "known good" one
[03:56] <Lord_Skummel> anyone know of a program where i can make a backup of my distro to an iso file for example?
[03:56] <Ajit> ubotu: how can I connect my nokia 6630 with feisty fawn via dku-2 cable? (I am new to linux and trying to learn. ubuntu 7.04 installed at my PC)
[03:56] <bia_> chadeldridge, I was as root in the terminal, and successfully updated the UNIX pw
[03:56] <chadeldridge> bia_:  try to sudo with that password now
[03:57] <bia_> chadeldridge, ok
[03:57] <anolis> i found it, "sudo apt-get install nautilus-open-terminal"
[03:57] <JimQode> Ajit, ubotu is a bot. What kind of cable is that? and what do you want to do with it?
[03:57] <bia_> chadeldridge, should go off being root to do that?
[03:58] <nyc-h0st> guys how can i mount an nfs share with different credentials than the current user?
[03:58] <nyc-h0st> i tried mount -t nfs user:password@ip/sharename /localmount
[03:58] <nyc-h0st> didnt work
[03:58] <chadeldridge> are you in su mode ?
[03:58] <nyc-h0st> me? yeah
[03:58] <bia_> chadeldridge, I am insudo mode in the terminal
[03:59] <jscinoz> I have two smbshares listed in /etc/fstab but no matter what i do i cant get write access on any user besides root, I've made a group entitled smbusers(gid=1003) added all 3 users to it and mentioned it in /etc/fstab but still no luck, what should i do now? I've tried chowning the mountpoints to root:smbusers, and chmod 755, but it reset to 755 straight away
[04:00] <dejx> What the heck, man?! I know i have hardware good enough for 1280x1024 but X crashes, works only with 1024...
[04:00] <dejx> GREAT
[04:00] <Bladey> All hail the mighty Bladey!
[04:00] <dejx> i screwed the xorg.conf now
[04:01] <Bladey> lol
[04:01] <JimQode> dejx, always backup your working xorg.conf file
[04:01] <dejx> JimQode i WANTED
[04:01] <dejx> but i forgot then:S
[04:02] <Bladey> 8 minutes till nero is done dl...
[04:02] <g[r] eek> some way i can test my different network cards?
[04:02] <gordonjcp> g[r] eek: what are you trying to do?
[04:03] <darren> lol
[04:03] <g[r] eek> troubleshoot my networkg connection
[04:03] <g[r] eek> im by now well versed in /etc/network/interfaces as well as restarting /etc/init.d/interfaces etc
[04:03] <cb20> 13995
[04:03] <cb20> ola
[04:03] <g[r] eek> but what i dont understand is that my install, as well as lspci, shows both network cards
[04:03] <Xbehave> my java versions arnt showing up, how do i fix it?
[04:04] <cb20> 06732313995
[04:04] <g[r] eek> but when i configure eth0 and eth1, eth1 says device not found
[04:04] <cb20> room
[04:04] <g[r] eek> so im wanting to test eth1 somehow
[04:04] <g[r] eek> i dont know al the linux commands for probing harwadre
[04:04] <g[r] eek> *hardware
[04:05] <g[r] eek> gordonjcp: make sense?
[04:07] <pike__> g[r] eek: id lspci -v and then search ubuntuforums for that card. if sudo ifconfig -a doesnt show it more than likely you need a driver
[04:07] <g[r] eek> ifconfig does show it
[04:07] <g[r] eek> -a
[04:07] <Bladey> 1 min till nero is done dl.
[04:08] <pike__> g[r] eek: ah. so you just want to see if it works?
[04:08] <g[r] eek> ive got eth0 eth1 and lo
[04:08] <g[r] eek> yeah
[04:08] <g[r] eek> my network cable is plugged into eth1
[04:08] <pike__> g[r] eek: i dont know the ubuntu gui tools but i can tell you from command line
[04:08] <Thumann> Hi, after a network crash, i booted my ubuntu box, and i'm not able to login via gdm anymore, it starts X and displays a spinning loading cursor.. then nothing more :/
[04:08] <g[r] eek> but if i configure it in /etc/net... it hangs the system when i reboot
[04:09] <g[r] eek> pike_: great. im using server edition dapper drake. only have command line :)
[04:09] <Thumann> if i shutdown my eth0, everything works fine :S
[04:09] <pike__> g[r] eek: 1) sudo ifconfig eth0 down 2) sudo ifconfig eth1 up 3) sudo dhclient eth1    <-- thats it pretty much for dhcp
[04:09] <bia_> ok, I think I managed to chmod my /media/hda1 to mode 0777 (rwxrwxrwx)
[04:10] <g[r] eek> ok one sec
[04:10] <Bladey> Dangit
[04:10] <bia_> but when I open nautilus and check its properties, it still won't let anything other than the owner write to it...
[04:10] <bia_> any help?
[04:10] <Bladey> Just dled nero clicked run nothing happend so I have to re dl this timme and save the exe
[04:10] <g[r] eek> pike_: btw, how do i know which of the ehternet controllers eth1 is mapped to
[04:11] <pike__> g[r] eek: cat /etc/iftab  lets you set mac to a device name
[04:11] <pike__> g[r] eek: er the cat just displays the file youd need to open it with sudo in a text editor
[04:11] <g[r] eek> yeah
[04:12] <g[r] eek> ok dhclient froze the pc. the first DHCPDISCOVER and it just hanged.
[04:12] <g[r] eek> the cursor isn't even blinking.
[04:12] <g[r] eek> completely frozen
[04:12] <pike__> g[r] eek: well thats not good :)
[04:12] <g[r] eek> i did sudo ifdown eth0, sudo ifup eth1,
[04:12] <g[r] eek> why would it do that?
[04:12] <g[r] eek> and now i bet you if i restart linux box, it will freeze when booting up
[04:13] <pike__> g[r] eek: you did ifup instead of ifconfig/dhclient?
[04:13] <g[r] eek> no i did ifconfig up
[04:13] <bia_> any further help on chmod, ppl?
[04:13] <g[r] eek> but i typed it here as ifup
[04:13] <pike__> g[r] eek: the default device hasnt changed the settings are still fine
[04:13] <g[r] eek> i thought they were one and the same though
[04:13] <g[r] eek> pike_: i assume this isn't doing anything and that i may sa well reboot
[04:14] <bia_> chadeldridge, u still there?
[04:14] <gordonjcp> g[r] eek: sorry, was afk
[04:14] -Bladey:#ubuntu- gordonjcp is now away from their computer.

[04:19] <CyberMadz> I already install faxfrontend, then there is Hylafax port when adding printer, but there is no Hylafax at manufacturer, how to add it?
[04:19] <Nutubuntu> south01,  as in MS Office?

[04:19] <jacekowski> !restricted > jacekowski

[04:20] <sylar> how to user 1280x800 resolution in my laptop with 945GM graphics chipset?
[04:21] <Thumann> why would uninstalling gdm using apt, uninstall ubuntu-desktop aswell?
[04:21] <sylar> how to use 1280x800 resolution in my laptop with 945GM graphics chipset?
[04:21] <south01> nutubuntu, do you know how to setup my bluetooth
[04:21] <JimQode> Thumann, it is part of ubuntu-destop. ubuntu-desktop is just a meta-package (which means a list of dependencies only)
[04:22] <nooblinuxuser> hi guys
[04:22] <Nutubuntu> south01,  seriously, I think that for the moment the only way to open the new MS stuff is to install MS Office 2007 in a virtual Winbox and save the files back out in some slightly less incompatible format
[04:22] <nooblinuxuser> need help installing kubuntu on my system, i can't seem to get the installation to boot, i have a raid 0 setup
[04:22] <Pici> !raid | nooblinuxuser
[04:22] <ubotu> nooblinuxuser: 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
[04:22] <Nutubuntu> nooblinuxuser,  raid0? or raid1? if raid0, why?
[04:22] <south01> nutubuntu, what is virtual winbox?
[04:23] <nooblinuxuser> raid 0
[04:23] <nooblinuxuser> i think, cuz that's how i requested the setup to be when i bought the computer
[04:23] <nooblinuxuser> i had windows vista, i hate it so i decided to try linux
[04:23] <Cin> :)
[04:23] <nyc-h0st> aah vista
[04:23] <Nutubuntu> south01,  sorry, IDK much about bluetooth ... a virtual winbox would be a virtual machine (VMware is probably the best known) living on your Linux box, and running Windows on that
[04:24] <Thumann> JimQode: okay, hmm.. re-installing did nothing :/
[04:24] <Nutubuntu> um, nooblinuxuser, raid0 is a recipe for "lose all your data and pull your hair out"
[04:24] <south01> nutubuntu, i have something VMware player at the system tools, but i dont know what to do with that
[04:25] <Nutubuntu> nooblinuxuser,  raid0 guarantees that if any drive in the raid dies, the whole raid dies, for good (unless you have a current, verified, safe, uncorrupted backup -- do you?)
[04:25] <n00b> hello
[04:25] <g[r] eek> erm any idea why my /etc/resolv.conf file is not there?
[04:25] <g[r] eek> i dont have any eth's configured
[04:25] <nooblinuxuser> let me try the guide to that link you gate me since my other comp is already at that stage of installation wish me luck!
[04:25] <Nutubuntu> south01,  I'll be tackling that same issue myself in the next week or two, but right now I know only that it can be done ...
[04:26] <DJ-_-> hi, does anyone know of any iso image makers?
[04:26] <Nutubuntu> I wish you luck :) ... I gave you a link?
[04:26] <ubuntuEdg1> hye guys my xorg is using 49% of my cpu

[04:26] <south01> nutubuntu, hmm.. i see, what is IDK
[04:26] <r00tintheb0x_> .
[04:26] <Nutubuntu> south01,  IDK = "I don't know"
[04:27] <south01> nutubuntu, lol
[04:27] <Pici> ubuntuEdg1: are you using any type of compositing desktop?
[04:27] <ubuntuEdg1> compositnig?
[04:27] <Nutubuntu> south01,  I grew up back when each byte could take a week or more to get across the country by microPony Express ;)
[04:27] <ubuntuEdg1> its a server
[04:27] <south01> what is the best font for WXGA screens
[04:28] <south01> windows has cleatype which was very good
[04:28] <|capirra> hmm how to install extra font files?

[04:28] <ubuntuEdg1> pici  , i don't have a monitor connected to it
[04:28] <faidillinger> dammit i cannot get the dual monitor desktop working. is anyone in here capable of helping me please ??
[04:28] <Pici> ubuntuEdg1: so why do you have an xserver running at all?

[04:29] <stack_> I upgraded a machine from breezy -> dapper -> edgy -> feisty.  I just did the dist-upgrade from edgy -> feisty and rebooted.  Now I don't get a login prompt.  I see the last "Running local boot scripts" line from init, but no prompt.  I checked /etc/rc.local, but it only contains 'exit 0'.  This is a server install.  Any ideas?
[04:29] <erUSUL> DJ-_-: get rid of the splash boot option in the kernel lines of /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:29] <ubuntuEdg1> Pici: i stopped gdm
[04:29] <DJ-_-> erUSUL: tx
[04:29] <south01> nutubuntu, allright :)
[04:30] <|capirra> thx
[04:30] <ubuntuEdg1> sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[04:30] <|capirra> now i can use my very expensive linotype font collection
[04:30] <|capirra> hehe
[04:31] <piero_> join #beryl
[04:32] <Pici> ubuntuEdg1: if you arent using the xserver at all, you might want to remove the ubuntu-desktop metapackage.  Check out the dependencies first to make sure you arent getting rid of something you might need though.
[04:32] <ubuntuEdg1> Pici: xserver is different from gdm ?
[04:32] <spheard> hi, how do I format my usb drive?
[04:32] <xerophyte> does anybody know how does this report generated .. http://www.pastebin.ca/601428  i mean which program is used for it ?
[04:32] <CyberMadz> does anyone here ever use faxfrontend?
[04:32] <enviouz> anybody know of a system wide eq? im not talking about a seperate plugin for each audio app either
[04:32] <Pici> ubuntuEdg1: well, just stopping the gdm is a temporary solution.  It will start up again next time you reboot.
[04:33] <wers> is there a way for me to use Kontact's calendar resource in Evolution?
[04:33] <ubuntuEdg1> Pici:  i know how to stop it permanently
[04:33] <south01> anyone has anyidea about bluetooth
[04:33] <Pici> ubuntuEdg1: okay :)
[04:33] <wers> or can Evolution and Kontact's calendars be synced?
[04:33] <ubuntuEdg1> can i stop xserver
[04:33] <Nutubuntu> |capirra, might be a good idea to not load the entire collection at once; depending on your hardware things could get slow - better to symlink to the ones you want for a particular job from ~/.fonts I would think
[04:33] <ubuntuEdg1> sudo /etc/ini.d/xserver stop
[04:34] <spheard> how do I format my USB drive? I just got a 400GB maxtor thing and my mate with a mac managed to screw it all up :-/
[04:34] <|capirra> ohh i was going to copy everything into that directory :D
[04:34] <stack_> I upgraded a machine from breezy -> dapper -> edgy -> feisty.  I just did the dist-upgrade from edgy -> feisty and rebooted.  Now I don't get a login prompt.  I see the last "Running local boot scripts" line from init, but no prompt.  I checked /etc/rc.local, but it only contains 'exit 0'.  This is a server install.  Any ideas?
[04:34] <|capirra> hehe thx for the advice
[04:34] <Pici> ubuntuEdg1: er, I dont think theres an init.d entry for the xserver.
[04:35] <|capirra> a directory inside ./font works too ?
[04:35] <ubuntuEdg1> ahh i see
[04:35] <ubuntuEdg1> any thing i can help you with pici
[04:35] <|capirra> or do they need to be directly installed into ./font ?
[04:36] <Pici> ubuntuEdg1: nope, I'm just hanging out and helping others.
[04:36] <ubuntuEdg1> ahh ok
[04:36] <Nutubuntu> |capirra, yes it does. experiment a bit if need be; it's straightforward. for instance you could build a directory of symlinks to the particular font files for "this book we're doing" and cp it into ~/.fonts when you're actually working that project ... delete or mv the directory out of ~/.fonts when you don't need them (and that way they don't make a huge dropdown mess everytime you look for an individual font too)
[04:36] <Nutubuntu> |capirra, "yes" meaning directories under ~/.fonts work fine
[04:37] <|capirra> cool thank you alot!
[04:37] <Bo^Dick> how many of you are using xchat when irc:ing?
[04:38] <Nutubuntu> y/w :) ... are you a typographer, by chance? or a printer, or a type designer or arrighiphile or such?
[04:38] <|capirra> im a designer and web dev. yeah
[04:38] <Bo^Dick> which irc client would you recommend for ubuntu?
[04:38] <|capirra> trying to build a pipeline using ubuntu
[04:39] <g[r] eek> ok this is bizarre. if i connect my "internet" cable to my ubuntu box, it works fine. however, if i connect this internet cable to my hub, and then connect my ubuntu box to the hub, it doesnt connect to the internet. my windows box is connected to the same hub and it connects to the net just fine (i am here via my windows box). thus i know its not the hub. any ideas?
[04:39] <n00b> xchat
[04:39] <n00b> xchat is what i'm using for irc
[04:39] <|capirra> but i dont design types
[04:39] <bowens> Hi, I have a strange issue with my USB drive.  when I run DF to show disk space, it shows that no matter what I delete it's not freeing space.  However, on my windows machine it shows the free space.  I've run checkdisk and fsck but this doesn't seem to make any difference, any ideas?
[04:39] <Bo^Dick> g[r] eek: observe that some cables might be red or white depending on their type
[04:39] <|capirra> too time consuming :)
[04:39] <Nutubuntu> |capirra best of luck - I'm unclear on the production process so I'm just guessing at "pipeline" but I would think you'll find what you want - this is a very friendly and flexible environment :)
[04:40] <kupesoft> Is there a good media player that works in a web browser (i. e. for a headless ubuntu server connected to speakers)
[04:40] <g[r] eek> Bo^Dick: its not the cables, ive swapped and tested and they all work on windows box
[04:41] <g[r] eek> Bo^Dick: it is definately an issue with my ubuntu's network config and not getting past the hub
[04:41] <Bo^Dick> which irc client is the best for ubuntu?
[04:41] <Pici> bowens: I believe currently theres a problem with deleting things off usb drives.  It creates a folder .Trash on the drive itself.

[04:42] <ponch_> <g[r] eek> did u set your gateway on your linuxbox
[04:42] <|capirra> ahhh nice :)

[04:42] <g[r] eek> ill try static one secd

[04:43] <redheat> hi everyone
[04:43] <redheat> sorry for bugging you all again
[04:43] <fuzzy_logic> hi people..
[04:43] <redheat> I just did a reinstallation of my ubuntu 7.04
[04:44] <ponch_> also do u have a devise setup for dhcp
[04:44] <Bo^Dick> i've noticed that when downloading certain softwares, the user has to compile and tweak around in system files to install the stuff
[04:44] <|capirra> Nutubuntu yeah there exist a few things that i need to test before i can change completly to ubuntu
[04:44] <g[r] eek> in /etc/network/interfaces - does having "auto eth0" just mean that it is configured automatically at boot?
[04:44] <Bo^Dick> what's the benefit of this user interface?
[04:44] <kupesoft> g[r] eek: man interfaces
[04:44] <g[r] eek> ie: if i remove that line, then i have to manually call ifconfig eth0 up
[04:45] <Nutubuntu> |capirra,  that would be wise - it took me a few months to cut over completely, but it's been a couple of years now and I haven't had to boot another OS except at other people's computers :)
[04:45] <kupesoft> g[r] eek: "Lines  beginning with the word "auto" are used to identify the physical interfaces to be brought up when ifup is run with the -a option."
[04:45] <Bo^Dick> why do some softwares for ubuntu require a lot of manual tweaking with the system and compiling stuff and so on?
[04:45] <|capirra> :)
[04:45] <fuzzy_logic> i just installed apache (NOT apache2) and now i want to install php5 support for it.. there is only a libapache2-mod-php5 wich says: To use php5 with Apache 1.3, you probably want libapache-mod-php5 instead. but that package doesn't exist.. can anyone help me plz?
[04:45] <kupesoft> g[r] eek: Yes.
[04:45] <g[r] eek> thnx
[04:45] <Tanja> hellooooooooooo
[04:46] <Pici> Bo^Dick: Short answer: Because Ubuntu is still a work in progress.
[04:46] <g[r] eek> ponch_: in my /etc/network/interfaces, i just need "iface eth0 inet static" following by address, netmask, gateway - is that all?
[04:46] <|capirra> Nutubuntu yep the most annoying problem that i have now is that gimp dont draw brush strokes smooth when i use my wacom tablet
[04:46] <ponch_> should be
[04:47] <Bo^Dick> Pici: why write a long "how to" document instead of writing a complete makefile that does all by itself?
[04:47] <fuzzy_logic> can anyone PLEASE help me?!
[04:47] <kupesoft> Bo^Dick: If you're not comfortable with "manual tweaking with the system and compiling stuff and so on" but you need advanced functionality I recommend Apple OS/X or Microsoft Windows...
[04:47] <|capirra> when i move the pen a little bit faster then the strokes get corners and dont look like a smooth curve
[04:47] <FurryNemesis> fuzzy_logic, what's up?
[04:47] <JimQode> Bo^Dick, how to documents are usually not done by programmers
[04:47] <nivekc1> has anyone used mandriva linux before?
[04:48] <FurryNemesis> oh, right
[04:48] <Jackie> what  are you talking about ?
[04:48] <fuzzy_logic> FurryNemesis: i asked my question above, just scroll a bit
[04:48] <FurryNemesis> I just did
[04:48] <Pici> nivekc1: This is the Ubuntu channel, either ask in #ubuntu-offtopic, or find a Mandriva channel.  Thank you.
[04:48] <FurryNemesis> oops
[04:48] <Jackie> haha
[04:48] <Bo^Dick> Pici: is there a particular reason the software system files sometomes only can be found uncompiled?
[04:48] <fuzzy_logic> FurryNemesis: i just installed apache (NOT apache2) and now i want to install php5 support for it.. there is only a libapache2-mod-php5 wich says: To use php5 with Apache 1.3, you probably want libapache-mod-php5 instead. but that package doesn't exist.. can anyone help me plz?
[04:49] <FurryNemesis> fuzzy_logic, have you though of looking in the Debian repos? I'm assuming that you've got universe and multiverse repos enabled
[04:49] <g[r] eek> hmm i added eth1 to my /etc/network/interfaces (whats the short name to refer to that btw?) and did /etc/init.d/networking restart (ok) but now when i ping google.com it says unknown host
[04:49] <JimQode> Bo^Dick, Because it is the most basic form a software could be found. Packages need to be, ummm packaged first :)
[04:49] <Pici> Bo^Dick: What software does Ubuntu require the user to compile?
[04:49] <Nutubuntu> |capirra, with tablet issues I'd be purely guessing, and not guessing intelligently either. Bet there's a gimp chan, though ... maybe someone there's found that issue and fixed it
[04:49] <g[r] eek> even tried to ping the gateway - network unreachable
[04:49] <fuzzy_logic> FurryNemesis: i have all repos enabled that are by default listed
[04:49] <Jackie> Java?
[04:50] <Bo^Dick> Pici: kvirc
[04:50] <Frogzoo> g[r] eek: pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces
[04:50] <|capirra> yeah they told me that its their interpolation code
[04:50] <g[r] eek> pastebin?
[04:50] <g[r] eek> link?
[04:50] <Frogzoo> !pastebin | g[r] eek
[04:50] <Nutubuntu> |capirra, and of course there *is* a gimp chan, and in a shocking development it's called #gimp ... figures ;p
[04:50] <ubotu> g[r] eek: 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)
[04:50] <g[r] eek> ok i have to type it out one sec
[04:50] <JimQode> Bo^Dick, If you can only find it in source form, that usually means nobody did a package for it.
[04:50] <Pici> Bo^Dick: I see kvirc in the repositories, you should not have had to compile it yourself.
[04:50] <Frogzoo> g[r] eek: or just the eth1 section
[04:50] <Jackie> how can I use the "Opera"?
[04:51] <Pici> !opera | Jackie
[04:51] <ubotu> Jackie: opera is an advanced and free (only as in price) web browser.  Install it via Applications->Add/Remove..., making sure that "Show commercial applications" (dapper only) is checked. For more info on opera please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser
[04:51] <Jackie> me?
[04:51] <Pici> Jackie: read what ubotu said.
[04:51] <Bo^Dick> Pici: i was referring to a textfile with instructions
[04:51] <|capirra> lot of things to find out before i can be productive on linux :)
[04:51] <Phyto> does anyone know how to type special charcters, I want to type an upside down "?" but Im not sure how to do this without a charcter map?
[04:51] <Pici> Bo^Dick: huh?
[04:51] <FurryNemesis> fuzzy_logic, just a sec
[04:51] <Jackie> ^_^
[04:51] <Bo^Dick> Pici: the file had "hacker level installation" and "guru level installation" and so on
[04:52] <|capirra> flexsdk2 or 3 is nice for flash :)
[04:52] <fuzzy_logic> FurryNemesis: ok tnx
[04:52] <Bo^Dick> Pici: apparently the hacker had to do more than the guru
[04:52] <g[r] eek> Frogzoo: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28350/
[04:52] <Pici> Bo^Dick: I'm confused.  If the package is in the repositories, why would you need to follow a 3rd party help file to install it?
[04:52] <Jackie> I'm studing English,^_^
[04:52] <g[r] eek> (eth1 is correct. i also have eth0 which ive downed)
[04:52] <rambo3> there is no flexsdk3.0
[04:53] <g[r] eek> and ive ensured that eth1 is the correct nic. checked the mac addresses and irq
[04:53] <Bo^Dick> Pici: when you say the "repositories", do you mean package manager?
[04:53] <Phyto> does anyone know how to type special charcters, I want to type an upside down "?" but Im not sure how to do this without a charcter map?
[04:53] <FurryNemesis> fuzzy_logic, when you go to Applications>add/remove programs>preferences and look under "downloadable from the internet", are all the boxes ticked?

[04:54] <g[r] eek> Phyto: alt + 191
[04:54] <Frogzoo> g[r] eek: add "auto eth1"  & then - sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[04:54] <g[r] eek> Frogzoo: ive disbaled auto eth1 because that seems to hang my system when i reboot
[04:54] <g[r] eek> but ok ill try it
[04:54] <Jackie> HO,How can I install Linux ? Someone know?
[04:54] <Frogzoo> g[r] eek: if just 'sudo ifup eth1'
[04:55] <g[r] eek> ya eth1 is up
[04:55] <crolle_> trying something in svn: resetting a file back to an older revision; i tried svn my_file -r 112
[04:55] <Pici> Bo^Dick: I mean the thing that the package manager connects to.  Information about the different software repositories can be found here: http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/components and here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories  .  Not all repositories are enabled by default.
[04:55] <fuzzy_logic> FurryNemesis: as i said, it is.. i checked again.. and that is indeed the case
[04:55] <FurryNemesis> ok
[04:55] <FurryNemesis> in that case
[04:55] <FurryNemesis> http://packages.debian.org/testing/net/libapache-mod-php5
[04:55] <g[r] eek> restarted ok
[04:55] <FurryNemesis> tada
[04:55] <g[r] eek> still cannot ping stuff
[04:55] <Frogzoo> Jackie: download the install cd & boot it - make sure you have a partition spare > 10gig to install it to
[04:55] <fuzzy_logic> FurryNemesis: are you sure that will work with ubuntu too?
[04:55] <Frogzoo> g[r] eek: 'sudo ifup eth1'
[04:55] <Jackie> thank you
[04:56] <FurryNemesis> yep
[04:56] <JimQode> Jackie, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[04:56] <g[r] eek> Frogzoo: it is up
[04:56] <FurryNemesis> ubuntu is based on debian
[04:56] <Pici> !debian
[04:56] <ubotu> Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu!
[04:56] <crolle_> trying something in svn: resetting a file back to an older revision; i tried svn co path/my_file my_file -r 112
[04:56] <FurryNemesis> should be perfectly compatible
[04:56] <Frogzoo> g[r] eek: ifconfig shows it up? can you ping it? can you ping 192.168.0.1 ?
[04:56] <g[r] eek> ya
[04:56] <fuzzy_logic> FurryNemesis: ok.. i will try it.. i guess it can't do any harm
[04:56] <Dr_willis> FurryNemesis,  that may of been true at one time.. but they have divirged a lot over the past year or so.
[04:56] <g[r] eek> i can
[04:56] <crolle_> but i got his message: svn: URL 'path/my_file' refers to a file, not a directory
[04:56] <crolle_> this
[04:57] <FurryNemesis> Dr_willis, even on the server side of things?
[04:57] <g[r] eek> hey so my gateway works
[04:57] <g[r] eek> hoorah
[04:57] <Bo^Dick> Pici: so when i hit "search" in the synaptic package manager, is only searches for softwares that the system is defaulted with?
[04:57] <Frogzoo> g[r] eek: try "dig www.yahoo.com"
[04:57] <Dr_willis> FurryNemesis,  Ubuntu has been doing a lot of tweaks and other things - I know their 'upstart' system is different. but it works so well with its backward compatiblity with SYsV no one notices its changed. :)
[04:57] <g[r] eek> my dns's are set in /etc/resolv.conf
[04:57] <FurryNemesis> ah
[04:57] <Pici> Bo^Dick: It only searches the repositories that you have enabled.
[04:57] <Frogzoo> g[r] eek: that wasn't the question
[04:57] <Dr_willis> FurryNemesis,  like the bot said. Dont use the debian repos. :) the actuall ussage of the machines should be about the same.
[04:58] <g[r] eek> busy digging
[04:58] <crolle_> can somebody hep me ith that svn-question/problem?
[04:58] <g[r] eek> connection time out; no servers could be reached
[04:58] <crolle_> help
[04:58] <crolle_> with
[04:58] <FurryNemesis> .... wonder if /slapping ubotu woill get me kicked...
[04:58] <CokeNCode> i'm having a hard time getting my tv tuner card to work with ubuntu ... is it worth it to try plugging it in again
[04:59] <Bo^Dick> Pici: can i choose which repositories that i want from inside the package manager?
[04:59] <Frogzoo> g[r] eek: ping 209.131.36.158
[04:59] <CokeNCode> have any major changes been made since the upgrade  ?
[04:59] <fuzzy_logic> FurryNemesis: it doesn't work.. it says that the dependency php5-common is not satisfiable
[04:59] <Aladdin^^Kelevra> eccomi
[04:59] <Aladdin^^Kelevra> ho fatto na cretinata
[04:59] <g[r] eek> Frogzoo: yup i get replies to that
[04:59] <Genomsaren> Which DB Management tool would you prefer?
[04:59] <FurryNemesis> ok, then you need php5-common before trying that - welcome to dependency hell
[04:59] <Aladdin^^Kelevra> dicevo: non intendo dire smanettando sui file system
[04:59] <rambo3> !it ?
[05:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about it ? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:00] <g[r] eek> Frogzoo: also, i can now ping my windows box, which i couldnt before
[05:00] <crolle_> has somebody here experiences wit hsvn?
[05:00] <g[r] eek> Frogzoo: definately some progress here :)
[05:00] <crolle_> with svn
[05:00] <Frogzoo> g[r] eek: well then sounds like your dns servers are down
[05:00] <Pici> Bo^Dick: Yes, in Synpatic, settings>repositories.
[05:00] <fuzzy_logic> FurryNemesis: well.. the funny thing is.. i already have installed that.. i think the package is just not compatible
[05:00] <g[r] eek> Frogzoo: but my windows box is working?
[05:00] <Pici> crolle_: Try asking in #svn or #subversion
[05:00] <g[r] eek> Frogzoo: on the same network
[05:00] <Frogzoo> g[r] eek: pastebin /etc/resolv.conf
[05:00] <spheard> hi, Ive los my taskbar!!!, I think it may just be hiding
[05:00] <g[r] eek> one sec
[05:01] <ponch_> <g[r] eek> u need dns servers
[05:01] <Nutubuntu> Later all - be good to one another :)
[05:01] <ponch_> for reverse dns lookups
[05:01] <g[r] eek> Frogzoo: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28354/
[05:01] <spheard> ponch_: rDNS isnt to be entered into lightly
[05:02] <aperson> How can I disable users from installing things?
[05:02] <Dr_willis> aperson,  installing what things? they really cant install things system wide.
[05:02] <spheard> Can someone tell me a way to get my taskbar back, I cant launch programs or anything or see whats going on
[05:02] <Bo^Dick> Pici: so the "Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS" is a repository then?
[05:02] <g[r] eek> Frogzoo: those 2 dns servers are in order, and are the same 2 that my windows box is using, correctly
[05:03] <aperson> Dr_willis, things they can dwonload from the internet, like a .deb file for instance
[05:03] <Ajit> how can I connect my nokia 6630 with feisty fawn via dku-2 cable supplied by nokia? (I am new to linux and trying to learn. ubuntu 7.04 installed at my PC)
[05:03] <Frogzoo> g[r] eek: both those lines should read "nameserver x.x.x.x"
[05:04] <SlimeyPete> aperson: they need sudo rights to do so. Take them out of your /etc/sudoers file.
[05:04] <g[r] eek> Frogzoo: oh boy...
[05:04] <g[r] eek> all this time
[05:04] <g[r] eek> ok one sec
[05:04] <Dr_willis> aperson,  a 'user' cant install a .deb system wide. Not even sure they can install it locally for theirselfs. Unless they got the 'sudo' rights.
[05:04] <SlimeyPete> aperson: that will stop them from doing anything which requires root privileges (including software installation)
[05:04] <Pici> !repo | Bo^Dick check these links out, they should explain it better than I can.  Plus I havent used 6.06 in quite a while.

[05:04] <FurryNemesis> fuzzy_logic, sorry about that, maybe Dr_willis was right
[05:04] <g[r] eek> WE HAVE LIFTOFF!
[05:04] <Dr_willis> aperson,  now they might still be able to compile stuff.  But it all depends on how paranoid you want to get.
[05:05] <g[r] eek> some kind of karma thing in the channel that i can attribute to you
[05:05] <Bo^Dick> Pici: thanks
[05:05] <Frogzoo> g[r] eek: yw
[05:05] <kibib2> salut
[05:06] <shawn34> Im looking for a program to create home movies. kino is nice but i want to add music and effects. anything like apples iMovie?
[05:06] <aperson> Dr_willis, SlimeyPete...I'll try that and see, thanks
[05:07] <SlimeyPete> shawn34: pitivi is trying to be that sort of program. However, I don't know whether it's stable yet.
[05:07] <SlimeyPete> you could try it out
[05:08] <shawn34> SlimeyPete, is it in the repositories?
[05:08] <Bo^Dick> by the way, how do i perform a screen resolution bigger than 1024x768?
[05:08] <SlimeyPete> shawn34: yep
[05:08] <SlimeyPete> not sure how up-to-date the repository version is thoug
[05:09] <zpertee> does anyone know where i can find an example for configuring iptables?
[05:10] <dynacrylic> how do i mount the hard disk when i'm running the live cd?
[05:10] <aperson> I looked at the sudoers file, however, all it has is root  all = (all) all and the same thing for admin...however I can still use gdebi package installer
[05:10] <Dr_willis> dynacrylic,  mount /dev/whatever /media/whever      is the 'standard' way (with your needed options)
[05:10] <frojnd> why when I play vmw videos on every some and a while pictures go crazy, everything is blured and I can see squares..
[05:10] <sn0> dynacrylic it should be automounted on the desktop, if not then browse the computer and double click on the disk
[05:11] <shawn34> dynacrylic, look in places>computer the drive should be in there. you can right click and mount
[05:11] <sn0> dynacrylic you can also mount easily using the terminal

[05:14] <Dr_willis> frojnd,  there the w32codec pack that gets most all of them. but theres all sorts of nasty spyware/malware codecs that ive seen in wmv files lately. So I'd say convert the wmvs to somthing else if you can.
[05:14] <redheat> everytime I click on it I get your hardware does not need any restricted drivers
[05:14] <verb3k_> redbox, do it manually

[05:19] <dynacrylic> dr_willis, oh! now i feel stupid. thanks!
[05:19] <portapro> hi guys I am looking for a way to start a program like mplayer without title bar and all the stuff is there an esay way ?
[05:19] <Bladey> How do I unload it
[05:19] <redheat> I used the envy program by tseliot
[05:19] <chad_> as in open itup and burn it to the disk
[05:19] <Bladey> I burned it to the disc
[05:19] <Bladey> with nero
[05:20] <chad_> ok is it a .iso still or did it take everything out
[05:20] <fedupwithwindows> is there any way to save a file that ie downloaded while booting the feisty live cd?
[05:20] <redheat> I went through the xorg.conf, and found out that my monitor is already defined and everything should be working
[05:20] <Bladey> h/o
[05:20] <frojnd> Dr_Wiils: I have never auto download any codecs for any video... only mp3 support with amarok..
[05:20] <Bladey> checking
[05:20] <redheat> except when I click on the nvidia settings, I get that error message
[05:20] <Daverocks> redheat: try running nvidia-settings instead of "nvidia settings"?
[05:20] <redheat> from where? Daver..the terminal
[05:20] <Bladey> Is there supposed to be something in the cd drive?
[05:20] <redheat> can you just tell me the command to use?
[05:20] <Daverocks> redheat: yep
[05:20] <chad_> yeah the cd you burned
[05:20] <Sonicadvance1> Anyone know how to route one LAN card's internet to another LAN card so a computer hooked up to the second LAN card can get internet?
[05:20] <Daverocks> redheat: nvidia-settings ... from the terminal
[05:21] <verb3k_> redheat , did you download  and install nvidia-glx with apt-get ?
[05:21] <frojnd> how can I tar some file with all extensions so I can tar it to specific folder. Like this? tar -xzvf file.tar.gz specificfolder    ??
[05:21] <Dr_willis> frojnd,  its not really a issue under linux. but the thing to rember is that different .wmv files canhave vastly different codecs they are using. Not all will be playable under linux
[05:21] <Daverocks> Sonicadvance1: how are the computers connected?
[05:21] <Bladey> I clicked on F drive on my computer, I see nothing in here.
[05:21] <Pici> redheat: Check for support from wherever you downloaded envy.  You were warned that it might have bad effects on your system.
[05:21] <aperson> what happens if I get rid of bittorrent and with it ubuntu-desktop, do I lose anything else?
[05:21] <chad_> are you still on windows or linux
[05:21] <Bladey> Should I try and re-burn it?
[05:21] <frojnd> Dr_Wills: well that's sux
[05:21] <Bladey> windows
[05:21] <Bladey> can't get to linux
[05:21] <redheat> ok it gave me this message Daver The program 'nvidia-settings' can be found in the following packages:
[05:21] <redheat>  * nvidia-glx
[05:21] <redheat>  * nvidia-settings
[05:21] <redheat> Try: apt-get install <selected package>
[05:21] <chad_> ok what version of nero are you running
[05:21] <redheat> Pici..can you just go easy on me..
[05:21] <Bladey> trial 7
[05:22] <verb3k_> redheat , Do this : sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[05:22] <Sonicadvance1> LAN card 1 is receiving internet from a Router, Computer 2 is hooked up to the second LAN card by either Crossover cable or regular Cat5 cable
[05:22] <chad_> ok check in the farther areas of it.. you should see burn an ISO
[05:22] <Daverocks> redheat: as verb3k_ says
[05:22] <redheat> roger that verb3k
[05:22] <chad_> which should take the iso and decompress it
[05:22] <chad_> then burn it
[05:22] <Bladey> k
[05:22] <spheard> :-( ubuntu isnt detecting my USB harddrive, can anyone suggest why?
[05:22] <redheat> guys, I got this message The following packages will be REMOVED:
[05:22] <redheat>   nvidia-xconfig
[05:22] <redheat> The following NEW packages will be installed:
[05:22] <redheat>   nvidia-glx
[05:22] <redheat> 0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[05:23] <redheat> Need to get 4492kB of archives.
[05:23] <redheat> After unpacking 13.5MB of additional disk space will be used.
[05:23] <redheat> Do you want to continue [Y/n] ?
[05:23] <chad_> or use isobuster to open up the entire cd and put that into a temp directory then burn a data cd
[05:23] <verb3k_> redheat , ok continue
[05:23] <Daverocks> redheat: yes, but don't paste large amounts of text please ;)
[05:23] <redheat> roger that
[05:23] <dynacrylic> dr_willis, i mounted it correctly but it says i "do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of hdc1". how do i get permissions?
[05:23] <Sonicadvance1> anyway to do it through that way Daverocks ?
[05:23] <redheat> sorry definitely
[05:23] <Ajit> is it necessary to unmount mounted drive before shutdown PC?
[05:23] <Pici> Ajit: nope.
[05:23] <Daverocks> Sonicadvance1: mmhmm, i'm not sure if ubuntu provides an easy way though
[05:24] <Bladey> chad
[05:24] <Pici> Ajit:  The system does it automatically for you when you shutdown.
[05:24] <Ajit> ok, thanks :)
[05:24] <chad_> yeah
[05:24] <Sonicadvance1> oh really? and what is the hard way then?
[05:24] <Dr_willis> dynacrylic,  root user has permissions by default.  otherwise dependong on the filesystem , you may want to use the umask, or other options to allow all users
[05:24] <Daverocks> Sonicadvance1: i guess a simple way would be to use firestarter
[05:24] <chad_> hmm.. I wonder if I can use regserv here
[05:24] <chad_> or nickserv
[05:24] <nooblinuxuser> hey back again the installation went fine, i did everything the page you gave me told me to, but after rebooting it gives me this error " Grub loading, please wait... Error 2
[05:24] <Bladey> would it be CD-ROM (ISO)?
[05:25] <Daverocks> Sonicadvance1: sudo apt-get install firestarter
[05:25] <Daverocks> Sonicadvance1: i think it has a ICS feature
[05:25] <Sonicadvance1> I see
[05:25] <chad_> do the other way I was was saying - get an eval of isobuster and put it into a temp directory
[05:25] <chad_> then burn a data cd
[05:25] <chad_> it would be a LOT easier
[05:25] <chad_> lol
[05:25] <redheat> Ok I got the following error messages: I'll post them line by line
[05:25] <redheat> ERROR: NV-CONTROL extension not found on this Display.
[05:26] <redheat> ERROR: NV-CONTROL extension not found on this Display.
[05:26] <redheat> ERROR: Unable to determine number of NVIDIA Frame Lock Devices on ':0.0'.
[05:26] <dynacrylic> dr_willis, ok thanks. i'll try to figure that out
[05:26] <redheat> ERROR: Unable to determine number of NVIDIA VCSCs on ':0.0'.
[05:26] <nooblinuxuser> anyone know why i'm getting that error? i am installing kubuntu on raid 1
[05:26] <Daverocks> redheat: do you get this when trying to install the package, or when trying to start X?
[05:26] <Dr_willis> dynacrylic,  theres a great great great many 'mounting drives under linux' tutorials out. :)
[05:27] <verb3k_> redheat, that's what I hate about envy , I suspect it caused this problem
[05:27] <redheat> no after I installed the package, and tried to start the nvidia setting, I got this message
[05:27] <dynacrylic> sr_willis, ok thanks
[05:27] <verb3k_> redheat,  now do this : sudo nvidia-xconfig
[05:27] <chad_> grr
[05:27] <dynacrylic> *dr_willis, ok thanks
[05:27] <chad_> ...
[05:27] <Daverocks> nooblinuxuser: that means that grub doesn't see the disk
[05:27] <Leppy> damn owned by someone else too
[05:27] <Leppy> lol
[05:27] <Daverocks> nooblinuxuser: is the raid configured in bios, or software?
[05:27] <BigToe7000> Does the trust WB-3500T webcam work in Ubuntu? I think it doesn't use standard drivers.
[05:28] <spheard> I'm having problems using my new USB harddisk, Ive plug it in to the USB and get;-->> Jul  3 16:24:46 andrew-laptop kernel: [  811.884660]  usb 6-3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3; Jul  3 16:24:46 andrew-laptop kernel: [  811.944444]  usb 6-3: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice; Jul  3 16:24:46 andrew-laptop kernel: [  811.944588]  scsi5 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices. <<-- but its not assigning it a /dev/

[05:28] <crusnola> just so you know.
[05:28] <crusnola> er
[05:28] <verb3k_> redheat,  great , now do this : sudo modprobe nvidia
[05:28] <redheat> roger
[05:29] <verb3k_> redheat, what do you get?
[05:29] <redheat>  Using X configuration file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf".
[05:29] <redheat> bash: Using: command not found
[05:29] <BigToe7000> Does the trust WB-3500T webcam work in Ubuntu? I think it doesn't use standard drivers.
[05:29] <verb3k_> redheat,  I said do this : sudo modprobe nvidia
[05:30] <verb3k_> redheat, did you do it?
[05:30] <nooblinuxuser> daverocks i sent you info on pm, not sure if you have those blocked or something
[05:30] <redheat> ok, sorry it gave me nothing
[05:30] <Bladey> In nero couldn't I just open the .iso file? and then choose the options and click burn?
[05:30] <redheat> I forgot nvidia..
[05:30] <redheat> last time..
[05:30] <redheat> deeply sorry
[05:30] <Daverocks> nooblinuxuser: i don't have pm blocked, and i didn't get one from you?
[05:30] <crusnola> bladey the way I was saying eliminates the issues of nero
[05:30] <nooblinuxuser> ok pm me instead
[05:31] <Bladey> I don't understand though crus
[05:31] <crusnola> I'm not sure if the trial edition has an iso burner
[05:31] <verb3k_> redheat,  ok now save all your open files and then press ctrl+alt+backspace and you should see the NVIDIA logo :)
[05:31] <crusnola> google isobuster
[05:31] <Bladey> sk
[05:31] <redheat> roger that..I'll close this window.
[05:31] <redheat> right?
[05:31] <Daverocks> nooblinuxuser: heh... you're not responding either?
[05:31] <crusnola> get the trial of that. make a directory on your desktop
[05:31] <verb3k_> redheat,  yes
[05:31] <Sonicadvance1> pew pew
[05:32] <crusnola> then open up the .iso you have and put it into the folder
[05:32] <nooblinuxuser> ummm
[05:32] <nooblinuxuser> that's weird
[05:32] <nooblinuxuser> i typed a bunch of stuff to you
[05:32] <nooblinuxuser> anyway i'll just type it here, how do i tell if it's a hardware or software raid?
[05:32] <crusnola> brb
[05:32] <nooblinuxuser> when i boot the computer i get an option to setup my raid array when i press f10
[05:32] <Pici> You need to register with freenode to be able to send PMs
[05:32] <MrBogus> hi there
[05:32] <nooblinuxuser> i have an ausus extreme striker mb
[05:32] <MrBogus> needing help with partition
[05:33] <Daverocks> nooblinuxuser: probably bios then... but i don't really know, i haven't had personal experience with RAIDs
[05:33] <nooblinuxuser> i checked the bios but i don't really see any raid options
[05:33] <nooblinuxuser> what would it look like anyway?
[05:34] <Daverocks> nooblinuxuser: i really do not know :P
[05:35] <MrBogus> i'm trying to install other distro on spare space from my Ubuntu,but when i've installed Ubuntu i've used all the HD(80G),how do i separate 15 GB for the other distro.Do i have to reformat it?
[05:35] <Daverocks> MrBogus: no
[05:36] <MrBogus> no,so what show i do then?
[05:36] <Daverocks> MrBogus: you can shrink the ubuntu partition with, say, a gparted liveCD to make unallocated space which the other distro can create a partition in
[05:36] <Daverocks> MrBogus: the other distro can use the same swap space as your ubuntu
[05:37] <MrBogus> the distro is called Dreamlinux and i can see how to use only 15GB on the install
[05:37] <Bladey> crusnola
[05:37] <Daverocks> MrBogus: hm, dreamlinux is a liveCD with a HD installation option?
[05:37] <MrBogus> yep
[05:38] <Daverocks> MrBogus: you should check if it overwrites your grub when it installs
[05:38] <MrBogus> you can have a look on www.distrowatch.com
[05:38] <Daverocks> MrBogus: already on it ;)
[05:38] <MrBogus> or www.dreamlinux.com.br
[05:39] <Daverocks> MrBogus: the installer looks pretty decent
[05:39] <Bladey> Anyone here use IsoBuster?
[05:39] <Daverocks> MrBogus: nice, can even just insert itself into an existing grub... that's probably what you'd want to do
[05:39] <MrBogus> maybe for you,i've been all day long trying to install that distro
[05:40] <MrBogus> or am i just to noob?
[05:40] <Daverocks> MrBogus: have you created space for it?
[05:40] <MrBogus> yep
[05:40] <MrBogus> i've create 15GB for it
[05:40] <Daverocks> MrBogus: so you've shrunk your ubuntu partition to make unallocated space
[05:40] <jaro> Hi
[05:41] <verb3k_> jaro, Hi
[05:41] <jaro> do you know a way to avoid having the blank window with compiz-fusion and java ?
[05:41] <Invisionfree> Why, when I have the eggdrop files, do I get a file not found error when I try to start it?
[05:41] <Bladey> Anyone here use IsoBuster?
[05:42] <MrBogus> i think Ubuntu has the best installer,no fuss and no frills
[05:42] <rambo3> !mkisofs
[05:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mkisofs - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:42] <nuclear> guys
[05:42] <nuclear> i need help
[05:42] <Daverocks> !info mkisofs
[05:43] <ubotu> mkisofs: Dummy transition package for genisoimage. In component main, is optional. Version 9:1.1.2-1 (feisty), package size 0 kB, installed size 32 kB
[05:43] <kuzmaster> hey peoples
[05:43] <ScottLij> !ask
[05:43] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:43] <nuclear> firefox 2.0.0.4 on 64 bit processor causes whole system to crash
[05:43] <nuclear> ?
[05:43] <Invisionfree> Why, when I have the eggdrop files, do I get a file not found error when I try to start it?
[05:43] <rambo3> Bladey, ask ubotu about iso
[05:43] <Daverocks> nuclear: does it just freeze or actually cause a lockup?
[05:43] <Xbehave-away> how do you close a man page
[05:43] <Bladey> !iso
[05:43] <ubotu> To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[05:43] <Daverocks> nuclear: can you move the mouse?
[05:44] <Daverocks> Xbehave-away: press q
[05:44] <nuclear> Daverocks, i can move the mouse but i cant click or select anything or restartx or anything
[05:44] <Invisionfree> Why, when I have the eggdrop files, do I get a file not found error when I try to start it?
[05:44] <Daverocks> nuclear: ok, so it didn't cause your whole system to crash :P
[05:44] <spheard> It seems that I dont have permission to access m auto mounted USB drive, how can I fix this?
[05:44] <Daverocks> nuclear: ctrl-alt-backspace does not work?
[05:44] <Daverocks> Xbehave: worked? :P
[05:44] <MrBogus> can install a distro via terminal command or command line?
[05:45] <nuclear> Daverocks, no it doesnt work....i basically have to reboot the system by pressting the reboo tbutton
[05:45] <nuclear> Daverocks, any idea what is going on?
[05:45] <Daverocks> MrBogus: depends on the distro
[05:45] <Invisionfree> Why, when I have the eggdrop files, do I get a file not found error when I try to start it??Hello?
[05:45] <Daverocks> nuclear: try running it with -safe-mode option
[05:45] <DJ-_-> OFFTOPIC, does anyone know how to install an OS on vmware using a cd
[05:45] <Daverocks> nuclear: "firefox -safe-mode"
[05:45] <MrBogus> dreamlinux for example.It is based on Knoppix
[05:46] <crusnola> what program should I use to run pc games?
[05:46] <Xbehave> Daverocks:  yeah thx
[05:46] <Bladey> crusnola
[05:46] <crusnola> yeah
[05:46] <verb3k_> crusnola, you mean games for windows?
[05:46] <Daverocks> nuclear: also, you do have the 64bit build of firefox, right?
[05:46] <Bladey> when I extracted the .iso file what next?'
[05:46] <crusnola> yeah
[05:46] <crusnola> sorry, windows games
[05:46] <verb3k_> crusnola, did you try wine?
[05:46] <crusnola> Bladey: go ahead
[05:46] <Daverocks> MrBogus: it doesn't appear that dreamlinux has a command-line installer
[05:47] <Bladey> what do I do next?
[05:47] <crusnola> I have a lil but I've been trying to use crossover
[05:47] <Sonicadvance1> yes, wine is great
[05:47] <Bladey> after extracting in IsoBuster
[05:47] <Invisionfree> Why, when I have the eggdrop files, do I get a file not found error when I try to start it Daverocks?
[05:47] <Bladey> with the folder
[05:47] <Daverocks> DJ-_-: you can emulate the real CD in your real CD drive to the guest OS in vmware
[05:47] <crusnola> Bladey go into nero, burn a data cd with the info from that folder
[05:47] <Xbehave> nuclear: alt + print screen + k will kill a terminal under almost any curcumstance , while leaving underlying things such as mounted drives and deamons ok
[05:47] <verb3k_> crusnola, wine is great for games but it is still under development ,
[05:47] <enry> hi i have to buy a smartphone-palm for work...there is some hope the il will be compatible with my house pc with ubuntu?
[05:47] <Daverocks> Invisionfree: i haven't had experience with eggdrop, sorry :P
[05:47] <crusnola> Ok.. so Wine is the global yes prog for windows gaming
[05:48] <DJ-_-> Daverocks: well got that, but how is the question, i tried cdrom-raw and auto-detect but did not work
[05:48] <somedude> do u support ati x1650 cards
[05:48] <verb3k_> crusnola, did you try native linux games ....I know a bunvh of great games if you want :)
[05:48] <verb3k_> bunch*
[05:48] <Invisionfree> Daverocks: It's saying the file isn't there....Do I need to chmod that folder for any ./files?
[05:48] <ShaneN> Hello
[05:48] <Daverocks> DJ-_-: heh, i only remember doing it with vmware under windows
[05:48] <crusnola> well, I'm trying to run Guildwars and quite a few others
[05:48] <Daverocks> Invisionfree: which file?
[05:48] <ShaneN> What would cause apt-get -f install to want to remove ubuntu-minimal?
[05:48] <DJ-_-> Daverocks: ok
[05:48] <nuclear> Daverocks, i started firefox in safe mode and it did the same thing i just rebooted my computer
[05:48] <Daverocks> DJ-_-: which had a nice GUI configuration :P
[05:49] <falko> Hey all, I'm running the latest version of ubuntu for a few days. I just wanted to mention that its perfect. :] 
[05:49] <Daverocks> nuclear: ok, you do have the right build
[05:49] <DJ-_-> Daverocks: lol k
[05:49] <verb3k_> crusnola, check the wine application compatibility database http://appdb.winehq.org
[05:49] <crusnola> kk
[05:49] <nuclear> Daverocks, what do u mean?
[05:49] <Invisionfree> Daverocks: ./eggdrop -mn says eggdrop isn't even there
[05:49] <Daverocks> nuclear: as in, you have checked that you have the right build for your machine. you don't have say a 32bit firefox installed
[05:49] <Bladey> Idk how I burn the data file in nero
[05:49] <verb3k_> crusnola, there you should find info about wether a specific games works or not ,and if yes you will find instructions too
[05:50] <neasteflorin> hi guys i'm back
[05:50] <crusnola> sweet
[05:50] <crusnola> ty verb
[05:50] <Daverocks> Invisionfree: as i said, i don't have any experience with eggdrop so it's difficult for me to help you... try googling it
[05:50] <crusnola> I'm digging through it as soon as I finish helping Bladey out
[05:50] <verb3k_> crusnola, no prblem :)
[05:50] <nuclear> Daverocks, i installed the 64 bit feisty install yesterday...i'm assuming that it had installed 64 bit firefox...how can i check?
[05:50] <falko> do I really have to install an ident server for letting that '~' dissaper from my ident address in irc?
[05:50] <Daverocks> nuclear: yeah, you're fine
[05:50] <Frogzoo> Bladey: to burn the ubuntu iso, you want the "burn cd image" option
[05:50] <crusnola> Bladey: from the second you pop your cd into your computer, an auto asking program will ask you what you want to do with it.
[05:51] <crusnola> choose burn a data cd
[05:51] <GigaClon> crusnola, try cedega its based on wine and seems to have better compatiblity
[05:51] <Invisionfree> Daverocks: It is not EGGDROP that is giving me a file not found thing...It's gotta be something computer related...
[05:51] <Daverocks> nuclear: i assume the firefox window pops up before it freezes?
[05:51] <Bladey> k
[05:51] <Daverocks> Invisionfree: ok, the binary eggdrop does not exist
[05:51] <nuclear> Daverocks, is there another browser i can use temporarily till i figure this out...hopefully as good as firefox?
[05:51] <crusnola> GigaClon: I've heard of Cedega.
[05:51] <Daverocks> Invisionfree: have you checked using like "ls" that it's there? :P
[05:51] <crusnola> Aren't they the ones who just bought the wine rights?
[05:51] <Daverocks> nuclear: are you on gnome?
[05:51] <ShaneN> Is there a way to prevent apt-get from trying to remove ubuntu-minimal?
[05:51] <nuclear> Daverocks, yeah the window does pop up before it freezes and sometimes i can surf for a while before it freezes
[05:51] <Invisionfree> I've checking by running /home/ishock/eggy
[05:51] <nuclear> Daverocks, yes
[05:51] <GigaClon> there was a fork of the wine tree
[05:52] <crusnola> or adapting them according to the saleability of the GNU
[05:52] <Daverocks> nuclear: if you're on kde, konqueror is a great browser, if you're on gnome, try epiphany
[05:52] <g[r] eek> anyone here installed JBoss on ubuntu before?
[05:52] <verb3k_> If you are an FPS fan I can recommend Tremulous for you :) apt-get it
[05:52] <GigaClon> called wineX
[05:52] <verb3k_> crusnola, If you are an FPS fan I can recommend Tremulous for you :) apt-get it
[05:52] <crusnola> ahh that's what I'm familiar with
[05:52] <Daverocks> nuclear: seamonkey is also similar to firefox, because it's basically mozilla, so you may like that
[05:52] <crusnola> k
[05:52] <GigaClon> but GW doesn't work if you are at the bottom of specs
[05:52] <Daverocks> nuclear: and of course, there's always opera, which is a very nice browser, albeit closed source
[05:52] <crusnola> lol
[05:52] <GigaClon> like me
[05:52] <Invisionfree> Daverocks...Yes, it is there....Could it be where it is?
[05:52] <Daverocks> nuclear: but still natively available for linux
[05:52] <crusnola> I learned that the hard way on this laptop
[05:53] <MrBogus>  does anyone knows if is there any drivers to connect a Windows Mobile %(pocket pc) with Ubuntu?I mean for sync
[05:53] <Daverocks> Invisionfree: is it executable?
[05:53] <Invisionfree> How would I know?
[05:53] <Daverocks> Invisionfree: do a "ls -l eggdrop"
[05:53] <Invisionfree> -rwxr-xr-x 1 ishock ishock 679942 2007-06-28 16:34 eg
[05:53] <matt___> can someone look at a tutorial i wrote, and tell me how easy it is to follow?
[05:54] <falko> MrBogus, there most be any sync application, I am looking for one as well. please let me know if you find something.
[05:54] <Invisionfree> Daverocks: -rwxr-xr-x 1 ishock ishock 679942 2007-06-28 16:34 eg
[05:54] <Daverocks> Invisionfree: it's executable
[05:54] <matt___> http://techystuff.info/ can someone look at that tutorial, it is quick, but tell me if it is understandable.
[05:54] <Daverocks> Invisionfree: but it's called "eg"?
[05:54] <Invisionfree> Yeah, I renamed it
[05:54] <falko> MrBogus, I'm about to connect my Mio168 for updating its maps and I can't sync it. :(
[05:55] <Daverocks> matt___: tis fine
[05:55] <Invisionfree> Daverocks: I renamed it for my boredom
[05:55] <Bladey> Brb, need breakfast
[05:55] <MrBogus> ok flake
[05:55] <Daverocks> Invisionfree: ok, that might affect things :P
[05:55] <MrBogus> falke
[05:55] <MrBogus> falko
[05:55] <matt___> Daverocks: so you think a total noob could follow it?
[05:55] <Invisionfree> Daverocks: I renamed it after it failed
[05:56] <MrBogus> have you tried via Wine?falko
[05:56] <Daverocks> MrBogus: http://www.synce.org/index.php/SynCE-Wiki ?
[05:56] <MrBogus> cheers
[05:56] <Invisionfree> Daverocks:
[05:56] <Invisionfree> ishock@Shocker:~/eggy$ ./eggdrop -mn
[05:56] <Invisionfree> bash: ./eggdrop: No such file or directory
[05:56] <Daverocks> Invisionfree: hum.
[05:56] <falko> MrBogus, are you meaning to get an winblows application through wine and sync it ?
[05:56] <Sonicadvance1> Where do you get more Gnome themes at?
[05:56] <Daverocks> matt___: as long as they understand how to open terminal, yes
[05:57] <MrBogus> yep.
[05:57] <MrBogus> falko
[05:57] <Daverocks> matt___: also assuming that a "total noob" understands how to move the mouse etc
[05:57] <Invisionfree> !ohmy falko
[05:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ohmy falko - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[05:57] <g[r] eek> how to install jdk1.6 on dapper?
[05:57] <Invisionfree> !java | g[r] eek
[05:57] <ubotu> g[r] eek: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[05:57] <liquiddoom> !bluetooth
[05:57] <ubotu> For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[05:58] <crusnola> lol
[05:58] <g[r] eek> ta
[05:58] <falko> MrBogus, well, I didn't try it but I believe that there's any sync application for linux that does that job.
[05:58] <Invisionfree> Daverocks: It still fails to work..
[05:58] <falko> ubotu, no problem, sorry mate.
[05:58] <falko> funny bot :p
[05:58] <crusnola> woot my games run on wine! CS2, GW, couple others
[05:58] <Invisionfree> WHat the HECK is CS2?
[05:59] <crusnola> counter strike 2
[05:59] <fedupwithwindows> counter strike 2?
[05:59] <crusnola> battle field 2 runs as well
[05:59] <crusnola> yup
[05:59] <fedupwithwindows> is lineage 2 among the games that you managed to run on wine? :P
[05:59] <pim> i'm running xubuntu 7.04, but i want to upgrade to ubuntu 7.04. i had to use a xubuntu cd cause thats all i had availeble at the moment.
[05:59] <liquiddoom> I don't think the adobe CS2 suite would be a fun game, so I'm guessing he meant counterstrike indeed.
[05:59] <crusnola> haven't run it yet
[05:59] <crusnola> brb lemme check
 You mean from 6.10 to 7.04?
[06:00] <Lo_Pan> pim: apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
 Oh, sorry... didn't see the x
[06:00] <dashavoo> how can I get claws-mail to display Japanese fonts? as being as it is japanese in origin it must be possible, firefox displays japanese fonts perfectly, what package or setting am I missing?
[06:00] <pim> no xubuntu 7.04 to ubuntu 7.04. i just installed it
[06:00] <fedupwithwindows> crusnola: ok, =)
[06:00] <falko> MrBogus , well mate, I think SynCE is great.
[06:00] <pim> it was the only cd i had on hand that worked
 Yeah, install ubuntu-desktop. It's a metapackage which brings in the stuff for gnome
[06:00] <Daverocks> pim: yes, the ubuntu-desktop metapackage has all the ubuntu gnome stuff
[06:00] <pim> thanks Lo_Pan
[06:00] <Lo_Pan> np
[06:01] <crusnola> http://frankscorner.org/
[06:01] <crusnola> is the complete list

[06:01] <jrib> Invisionfree: hi
[06:01] <crusnola> http://appdb.winehq.org/
[06:01] <crusnola> another good list
[06:02] <Invisionfree> jrib: Can I PM you, because I need to paste 4 lines, but here probably isn't the best idea...And 4 lines really doesn't seem enouhg for pastebin
[06:02] <crusnola> rib..
[06:02] <fedupwithwindows> crusnola: thanx ^_^
[06:02] <crusnola> np fedup
[06:02] <jrib> Invisionfree: pastebin is better so everyone can help
[06:02] <sam_> hi how do i get a lamp config on ubuntu desktop edition
[06:02] <sam_> ?
[06:02] <sam_> apt-get?
[06:02] <Invisionfree> jrib, fine...Meanz0r.
[06:02] <g[r] eek> im using dapper drake 6.06 server edition. according to that java page, i should installed sun-java5-jdk, but my software depends on java1.6. is it safe to just install 1.6? or does 1.6 only work on feisty fawn?
[06:02] <sam_> i am new to linux so an easy guide would be appreciated.
 Install lamp-server, it's a meta-package
[06:02] <sam_> how?
 sudo apt-get install lamp-server
[06:03] <Invisionfree> jrib: http://kpaste.com//view.php?id=97 <-- How does that work?
[06:03] <sam_> thank you
[06:03] <crusnola> jrib: you wouldn't happen to know a server by the name of BA would you?
[06:03] <sam_> that won't remove my nice desktop stuff wil it?
 Nope
[06:03] <sam_> great thanks
 It will just install the server components, so you'll run both
[06:03] <sam_> cool
[06:03] <sam_> !
[06:04] <jrib> crusnola: nope
[06:04] <crusnola> ok just checking
[06:04] <sam_> it didn't work
 Oh? What happened?
[06:04] <pim> ow, one more thing. i just started to install the new meta package. but it's asking for the cd and thats not working at the moment. i used to be able to turn that off but i dont know how to do that in the terminal
[06:04] <sam_> it couldnt find the package lamp-server
[06:04] <dashavoo> How do I get Japanese fonts to display in claws-mail ??
[06:04] <cryptovenom> Is there any monitor calibration software for Ubuntu?, I need to adjust my gamma settings.
[06:04] <DJ-_-> can anyone explain how to install xp under ubuntu using vmware player
[06:04] <sam_> here is the message:
 D'oh... I might have the name wrong, hold on
[06:05] <crusnola> I have an old friend who is staff on another ircserver who goes by Rib because of his last name
[06:05] <sam_> E: Couldn't find package lamp-server
[06:05] <sam_> ok
[06:05] <Invisionfree> jrib: http://kpaste.com//view.php?id=97
[06:05] <sam_> for future reference how do i find out the name of a package?
[06:05] <sam_> is there a directory?
[06:05] <Invisionfree> sam_: apt-cache search might help?
 You can use synaptic to search
[06:05] <Invisionfree> Or that too ^
[06:05] <sam_> ok
[06:05] <sam_> thank you
[06:05] <jrib> Invisionfree: pastebin the contents of eggdrop
[06:06] <sam_> so can i just search for lamp from synaptic?
[06:06] <crusnola> it is ok to mention other programs similar to synaptics?
[06:06] <hagabaka> or aptitude
[06:06] <jrib> Invisionfree: or... what kind of file is it?
 I looked for lamp, it seems like the metapackage I speak of is nonexistant.
[06:06] <crusnola> such as automatix2
[06:06] <Invisionfree> jrib:
[06:06] <Invisionfree> gedit has not been able to detect the character coding.
[06:06] <Invisionfree> Please check that you are not trying to open a binary file.
[06:06] <Invisionfree> Select a character coding from the menu and try again.
[06:06] <sam_> hmmm...
[06:06] <liquiddoom> !lamp
[06:06] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL.

[06:06] <cr9c> howdy ya'll
[06:06] <nyc-h0st> whos'
[06:06] <jrib> Invisionfree: why not install eggdrop from the repos?
[06:06] <nyc-h0st>  s good with bash here i need to find all tokens from one file in another via grep
[06:07] <nyc-h0st> or whatever means
[06:07] <cryptovenom>  Is there any monitor calibration software for Ubuntu?, I need to adjust my gamma settings.
[06:07] <Invisionfree> jrib: Because I already have all the config anf stuff for this one..I'm only running it until my host shell stops lagging so bad
 lprof
[06:07] <cr9c> any ubuntu server experts otu there
[06:07] <ioxon> Anyone here able to help me find something in Ubuntu where I can change the monitor driver - preferrably like you can with YaST in SuSE?
 It creates ICC profiles, but has a nice gamma calibration tool
[06:08] <sam_> hmmm ... i'm still stuck
[06:08] <cryptovenom> thanks
[06:08] <Sonicadvance1> Anyone know if it's possible to have an animated backround(like in windows) with either GIF images or MNG or JNG images?
 If not, go to Norman Koren (or whatever his name was)'s site. There's a gamma chart there, use xgamma to calibrate
[06:08] <ioxon> or at least change it's max resolution or something. I should be able to push 1680 x 1050 and can't right now cause I'm only given the highest option of 1024 x 768
[06:08] <jrib> Invisionfree: idk, would probably be easier to just use the config with the repo version
[06:08] <Invisionfree> jrib: How?
[06:09] <bullium> liquiddoom: try displayconfig-gtk
[06:09] <cr9c> anyone that may know anything about ubuntu server, i am in need of some assistance if someone would be so kind ...
[06:09] <liquiddoom> bullium: Sweet.
[06:09] <Anlar> ioxon: you got intel based chip? if yes, "sudo apt-get install 915resolution" and reboot and it will be fixed. I don't know about nvidia/ati
[06:09] <bullium> liquiddoom: it's still in the early stages of development, but it is easier than editing the raw config file
[06:09] <liquiddoom> !ask | cr9c
[06:09] <ubotu> cr9c: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:09] <g[r] eek> cr9c just ask the question
[06:10] <liquiddoom> oh right
[06:10] <ioxon> nVidia
[06:10] <moustafa> how can i open .amv files?
[06:10] <mytoaster> i have a .run file for a driver i have to install how would i go about installing it?
[06:10] <cr9c> my question is my login prompt is loading before all the system scripts get done loading so the login prompt is coming up then the rest of the startup scripts. how do i change this?
[06:10] <Hydr0p0nX> sh file.run
[06:10] <Lexington> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg   ----  accept all defaults and reboot...
[06:10] <sam_> right: does anyone know how i can get a lamp config on ubuntu desktop edition
[06:10] <sam_> ?
[06:10] <jrib> Invisionfree: I don't know offhand, try #eggdrop
[06:10] <Lexington> should fix your resolution problem.
[06:10] <nyc-h0st> anyone? search for tokens from one file in another?
 If you just press enter once, jyou can log in
[06:10] <moustafa> how can i open .amv files?
[06:10] <rambo3> !grub
[06:10] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[06:10] <ioxon> Anlar nVidia GeForce Go 6800 Ultra - drivers installed great for that though.
[06:10] <hype_> i sthere
 Or not, even... I don't think it matters
[06:10] <hype_> hi there* -_-
[06:11] <cr9c> it will let me log in i just am trying to get the login prompt to load after all the startup scripts
[06:11] <hype_> anyone can tell me how to change the color of menus in gnome? I want the black text at bottom to be white http://hypeuser.free.fr//misc/white.png
 I know what you're talking about... mysql and such running things after the login prompt... not sure how to cure it
[06:11] <cr9c> i've been up and down /etc, /etc/init.d/all the rc folders, i can't find any call to load the login sessions
[06:11] <jhaig> sam_: You can just install Apache, MySQL and PHP via synaptic, but I'm guessing you are asking for a more detailed answer than that.
[06:11] <sam_> how can i configure lamp on desktop edition?
[06:11] <cr9c> huh thats weird
[06:11] <sam_> ok thanks
[06:12] <sam_> i knew that
[06:12] <Invisionfree> !info lamp
[06:12] <ubotu> Package lamp does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[06:12] <Invisionfree> Ugh
[06:12] <cr9c> i have other things loading
[06:12] <Invisionfree> What was it?
[06:12] <cr9c> hang on and i'll tell you what they are.
[06:12] <sam_> but then i have to configure them separetly
[06:12] <jhaig> sam_: Sorry.  :-)
[06:12] <mbumba> me too
 Hmm... the login would probably be the shell coming up
[06:12] <sam_> so i have to conf. them individually?
[06:12] <Invisionfree> !info lamp-server
[06:12] <cr9c> right. but i can't find a call for /sbin/getty at all in any of the initialization scripts.
[06:12] <ubotu> Package lamp-server does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[06:12] <jonny> hey, im new to ubuntu, how do i set my own root password?
[06:13] <cr9c> sudo passwd
[06:13] <jonny> ahh thanks
[06:13] <cr9c> no prob
[06:13] <jonny> i done Sudo -i and it made me root straight away
[06:13] <cr9c> when it asks for Password: type your own
[06:13] <jonny> but i just want a password ;p
 Hmm... I'd check my server's config... but it's sitting here powered off
[06:13] <jonny> yeah cr9c, i used Debian for like 3 weeks ;/
[06:13] <cr9c> then it will say set new unix password and you can assign
 Tis getting a 160GB sata drive implant :D
[06:13] <sam_> awwwwwwww
[06:13] <cr9c> i perfer slackware but ubuntu server is small, versatile and fast.
[06:14] <sam_> so i am stuck with the self-config then? no packages available?
[06:14] <dashavoo> How do I get Japanese fonts to display in claws-mail ?? ( last try before I give up )
[06:14] <sam_> servers aren't my expertise
 Hey, have you checked the .bash_profile and such? The shell could be doing some of this as it starts
[06:14] <Hydr0p0nX> so is slackware if it's setup right cr9c  ;)
[06:14] <cr9c> anyways, i got domain name server starting, superserver inetd, secure shell deferred execution scheduler atd, crond, and local boot scripts /etc/rc.local
[06:14] <frojnd> does anyone know how to make that ./psybnc will autostart everytime that servers gets online
[06:14] <frojnd> ?
[06:15] <cr9c> no i haven't because its not the shell thats starting first, its the /sbin/getty
[06:15] <g[r] eek> does ubuntu server 6.06 not support java jdk1.6?
[06:15] <cr9c> forjnd, add it to /etc/rc.local
[06:15] <rambo3> sam_, read !lamp info .

[06:15] <zphinx> Is there any guide around for upgrading from 5.10 to 7.04?
[06:15] <Anlar> ioxon: I have just no idea, if the drivers are installed aok it wshould be automatic. but I have no idea about nvidia/ati indeed

[06:16] <sam_> how do i use the ! thingy
[06:16] <liquiddoom> sam_: It basically is a command
[06:16] <zphinx> ubotu upgrade
[06:16] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[06:16] <sam_> for bash?

[06:16] <ubotu> Saying "It says nothing", "It does nothing" is generally not very useful for troubleshooting. Please be as specific as possible: if you see a black screen, say so, if you see a shell prompt, say so, if you see an !error message, say so - Also, most !CLI commands don't print anything when they succeed, but only when they fail.
[06:16] <liquiddoom> sam_: see?

[06:22] <saleh>  guys, who can help me to install lisp in my ubuntu? what are packages that i have to install, and how to compile a small program?
[06:22] <rambo3> common lisp i guess
[06:22] <zacky07> when i try iface command i got this: iface: command not found
[06:22] <lovely> hello rambo
[06:22] <pyr3> chadeldridge,  I'm trying to start the OS install from CD.
[06:22] <fredl> hi guys, should 7.01 resize ntfs partitions without a problem?
[06:22] <zacky07> what is wrong with that? do i need to install some new program?
[06:22] <chadeldridge> pyr3:  ubuntu install ?
[06:23] <fredl> ehr 7.04 that is.
[06:23] <pyr3> chadeldridge, yea,  scroll up.  X won't start properly from the cd.
[06:23] <chadeldridge> looking ... 1 sec
[06:23] <zacky07> does anybody know  how to install iface command?
[06:23] <pyr3> It just gives me a mouse pointer and a background.... and gnome-screensaver works if I leave it idle
[06:23] <pyr3> But that's it.
[06:23] <chadeldridge> ohh sorry ... i know nothing about the PPC install
[06:23] <saleh>  guys, who can help me to install lisp in my ubuntu? what are packages that i have to install, and how to compile a small program?
[06:23] <todger> fredl: yeah but it's always good to back up
[06:24] <chadeldridge> saleh:  sudo apt-get install lisp-core
[06:24] <rambo3> saleh, #lisp . and i think you need gnu common lisp compiler
[06:24] <fredl> todger - Hmm. My installer gives me an error message though. You have any idea what might be the problem then?
[06:24] <iMilad> Hi everybody! I had some files under linux which had names with characters that are illegal in windows. like ":" or "?"      i can see this files in my windows but i can't do anything with these files. Does anybody know how I can delete these files?
[06:24] <todger> fredl: what error message?
[06:24] <todger> is it possible to upgrade Xubuntu dapper's fxce without having to upgrade everything to feisty?
[06:25] <saleh> rambo3: thx...
[06:25] <neozen> hoallo guys got a question about vmware player on linux
[06:25] <chadeldridge> neozen:  whats the question ?
[06:25] <ZeZu> rpm is complaining about /bin/sh when installing open office (I need vanilla version), anyone know why?
[06:25] <neozen> how does one get that panel that show up at the top of the screen in full-screen mode to auto-hide or go away completely
[06:25] <neozen> *shows
[06:26] <fredl> todger - I have a Dell D600 with 80G disk, at least 50G free, when I choose from the graphical installer 'Guided' (the first option) it comes with an error message 'an error occurred while writing the changes to the storage device, the resize operation is aborted'
[06:26] <chadeldridge> the top bar that shows the name of the image that is running ?
[06:26] <todger> I `want the trash can on xubuntu :(
[06:26] <neozen> ZeZu: could be since default shell in post-dapper ubuntu's is not bash but is actually dash
[06:26] <ZeZu> I see
[06:27] <neozen> ZeZu: I've seen some issues regarding differences between the two in some scripts I've run
[06:27] <chadeldridge> neozen:  if you maximize the vmplayer it goes away... but it also takes over your xsession until you ctrl / alt out of it
[06:27] <todger> fredl: did you defrag the partition?
[06:27] <DJ-_-> well my vmware-player conf is pasted "http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28364/" i need help cuz it wont boot the iso
[06:27] <chadeldridge> in non -maximized mode there is no way to remove it
[06:27] <fredl> todger - nope, should I do that first?
[06:27] <Stwange> quick one: what's the name of the text editor? ie. sudo <something> sources.list?
[06:27] <chadeldridge> sudo gedit
[06:27] <ZeZu> neozen, should i just install bash in synaptic? or how could i go about making it work ?
[06:27] <neozen> chadeldridge: not with my experience... its still there...
[06:27] <neozen> ZeZu: two ways
[06:27] <chadeldridge> neozen:  what version are you running?  mine goes away with a maximize
[06:28] <bobgill> !vnc
[06:28] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[06:28] <Stwange> gedit wasn't what I was thinking of, it was a four letter one, but that will do, thanks anyway
[06:28] <neozen> ZeZu: one: you change the symlink for /bin/sh to point to /bin/bash
[06:28] <neozen> ZeZu: two you change the shabang line @ the top of the offending scripts to #!/bin/bash
[06:28] <chadeldridge> stwange:  there is also edit / pico / vi ... a bunch more
[06:29] <rambo3> leafpad
[06:29] <neozen> ZeZu: the first one will fix for everything... and the second ... will only fix for the current script
[06:29] <bobgill> I am trying to VNC from my Ubuntu PC to my networked XP PC can someone help
[06:29] <Stwange> thanks
[06:29] <todger> fredl: yeah, I think so, from windows probably
[06:29] <chadeldridge> bobgill:  what is the issue?
[06:29] <neozen> chadeldridge: I'm using the version of vmware player from the repositories
[06:29] <neozen> chadeldridge: looking now
[06:29] <todger> fredl you could also try gparted to manually resize the partition
[06:29] <ZeZu> neozen : i guess rpm's do have a script in them, but i'd have to do it to about 20rpms or so, guess the first option is probably best, at least temp.
[06:29] <bobgill> chadeldridge: I normally use Terminal Service Client in Gnome using RDP, and it works fine but I'd rather VNC so the other person can stay logged in at same time
[06:30] <fredl> todger - okay well lemme try that first then
[06:30] <neozen> its worked just fine for me
[06:30] <chadeldridge>  bobgill: you need to install vnc server on the windows box then .. i recomend ultravnc.com
[06:30] <neozen> and for the many other people I've done it for
[06:30] <chadeldridge> neozen:  i am on 2.0.0 build-45731
[06:30] <bobgill> ok
[06:30] <neozen> chadeldridge: I see
[06:31] <todger> is it possible to upgrade Xubuntu dapper's fxce without having to upgrade everything to feisty?
[06:31] <neozen> chadeldridge: you install that from their package or something?
[06:31] <neozen> todger: you really don't want to do that
[06:31] <todger> neozen I want the trash can though
[06:31] <bcnl> does anyone here run a production asterisk system on 7.04, using the provided asterisk packages?
[06:31] <chadeldridge> neozen:  the repository is silly out of date on some things ... just compile and use the version from vmware.com
[06:31] <neozen> todger: then back up your /home (just in case)
[06:31] <xjdriver69> anyone know why my menu has no entries in it?  they just disaperaed
[06:32] <bcnl> or is it suggested to build from source (like I currently do on another system)
[06:32] <ubunt1> were's bash_profile
[06:32] <ZeZu> strange, i changed the sym. to /bin/bash and i still get the same error running rpm, failed dep. /bin/sh

[06:33] <xjdriver69> Jack_Sparrow: nothing today
[06:33] <zphinx> so how come i cant upgrade my breezy system and then upgrade it to dapper?
[06:33] <Jack_Sparrow> xjdriver69: What have you installed recently?
[06:33] <zphinx> 404 on the packages.
[06:33] <chadeldridge> fat32 does not have a 4gb limit mzuverink
[06:33] <xjdriver69> Jack_Sparrow: nothing today
[06:34] <Jack_Sparrow> chalcedony: I thought it did have a 4 gig limit
[06:34] <cotyrothery> anyone know were i can find the .bash_profile
[06:34] <mzuverink> chadeldridge, accourding to the western digital docs it says it does
[06:34] <Jack_Sparrow> xjdriver69: I said recently... not today
[06:34] <rambo3> cotyrothery, ~
[06:34] <ZeZu> reg. fat16 has a limit similar
[06:34] <bobgill> chadeldridge: thank you i'm logged into the XP pc, that was easy :) :)
[06:34] <cotyrothery> rambo3: could you explain what ~ is
[06:34] <rambo3> cotyrothery,  type cd ~
[06:35] <cotyrothery> k
[06:35] <chadeldridge> bobgill:  np
[06:35] <Jack_Sparrow> mzuverink: If it is only occasionally that you need larger files, just split them.  I like fat 32 for sharing with my windows system
[06:35] <mzuverink> kk
[06:35] <cotyrothery> reambo3: then what
[06:35] <chadeldridge> then they are retarded ... fat32 supports much more than 4gb
[06:35] <rambo3> cotyrothery,  cat .bash_h*
[06:35] <dbft> hey, anyone recommend a gui program (gnome peferably) which will let me compare two binaries for differences?
[06:35] <chadeldridge> 127.5GB i think on fat32
[06:36] <robbma> but not the file size
[06:36] <Jack_Sparrow> chadeldridge: PArtition size of FIle size?
[06:36] <dbft> yeah, fat32 has a max file size ~4 gig
[06:36] <cotyrothery> rambo3: pulled up a lot of stuff
[06:36] <dbft> don't know what your arguing about though
[06:36] <Jack_Sparrow> or
[06:36] <chadeldridge> that is formated size .. partition size... sorry i thought thats what was asked
[06:37] <chadeldridge> the max file size on fat32 is 4.12gb
[06:37] <rambo3> cotyrothery, thats you .bash_history  . its text file in plane text type : gedit .bash_history

[06:37] <cotyrothery> ok that opened an editor
[06:38] <cotyrothery> rambo3: what do i do now
[06:38] <rambo3> apt should be deprecated for aptitude
[06:39] <bruenig> rambo3, what are you talking about
[06:39] <rambo3> cotyrothery, i don't know read bash.org
[06:39] <hjmills> rambo3, and risk breaking the thousands of howtos on the web? pure foolishness...
[06:39] <bruenig> why would it need to be deprecated anyways
[06:39] <bruenig> since it is arguably better than aptitude
[06:39] <cotyrothery> i dont think that bash_profle exists
[06:40] <Pici> rambo3: do you even know what bash.org is?
[06:40] <chadeldridge> sweeping statements make me laugh ... lol
[06:40] <hjmills> bruenig, the normal argument is that aptitude removes packages that were installed as dependencies when you remove the package that depended on them provided no other package needs them
[06:40] <rambo3> Pici, irc quotes site , why ?
[06:40] <bruenig> ok and apt-get does too
[06:40] <lgc> Hi! How can I mount an USB disk (actually, my former fixed HDD usb-ized) that doesn't seem to get recognized?
[06:40] <bruenig> of course with apt-get you have the option of doing it whereas aptitude forces you
[06:41] <hjmills> bruenig, it didn't used to iirc, now I think you need to use apt-get clean
[06:41] <bruenig> apt-get autoremove
[06:41] <hjmills> bruenig, or apt-get autoremove
[06:41] <Pici> rambo3: Why are you suggesting it to someone who is having problems with their bash_history?
[06:41] <bruenig> it didn't use to like a year and a half ago
[06:41] <chadeldridge> is it just me or is there like 1000 issues with usb disks in ubuntu still ... every day i come here and answer about 30 of these "my usb disk doesnt work" questions ... i hope thats getting fixed in next version
[06:41] <hjmills> bruenig, if it was in earlier versions of apt I dont think it told you there was stuff to remove
[06:42] <bruenig> chadeldridge, it is people who rely on automount and then when that fails don't really know what to do
[06:42] <rambo3> Pici, i just told him how to get it . he opend it , next time don't jump in the middle of conversation
[06:42] <sam_> hey! new question: how do i get write access on my windows partition that is mounted as sda1 in desktop edition
[06:42] <danshtr> hi all, with what do can i resize partitions?
[06:42] <chadeldridge> true that
[06:42] <chadeldridge> danshtr:  gparted

[06:43] <Brun> Say, where it is possible to load a driver for HP 4400c
[06:43] <chadeldridge> lgc:  check your lsusb to see if the device is recognized ...

[06:44] <hjmills> bruenig, I am symlinking a directory full of symlinks into /var/www so they are accessible over the network but the symlinks arent showing up
[06:44] <tantris> Brun: is that a scanner or a printer?
[06:44] <lgc> chadeldridge, it gives me just ' ID 0000:0000' for all devices, except for the mouse.
[06:44] <chadeldridge> andrejkw:  just use alt / f2
[06:44] <Jack_Sparrow> chadeldridge: For the icons to show on the desktop they need to restart x...  but after just running the script they are accessible..  http://media.ubuntu-nl.org/scripts/diskmounter
[06:44] <bruenig> andrejkw, you can create a .desktop in /usr/share/applications, look at the other .desktop files to get an idea how that works

[06:46] <Jack_Sparrow> mazzapan: What video card is in that beast.
[06:46] <madduck> i just installed feisty on a new R60 and it all seems to work fine except for s2ram. if i resume, the screen is black, it's lit, but X does not show. also, the machine gets no IP address it seems. I cannot SSH into it or continue an SSH session from before the suspend. any idea what i should do to make s2ram work? s2disk works alright.
[06:46] <chadeldridge> thanks for that script jack .. its very similar to one i was writing just to solve my "tired of answering usb problems" ... it looks better than mine :-D
[06:46] <stefg> lgc check cabling and connectors. it's a hardware problem, i'm 99% sure
[06:46] <Russian> what to do if forgot IRC password
[06:46] <Jack_Sparrow> chadeldridge: I like it..
[06:47] <chadeldridge> lgc:  make sure the disk has its jumpers set to primary master as well ...
[06:47] <mzanfardino> regarding question #1) I have read the fakeraid howto and get stuck when I attempt to load the module for raid45 (evidently the kernel isn't built for it?).  I wanted to know if anyone else has done anything with software raid and had any success...

[06:48] <valehru> is there an alternative to using gstreamer?  I cannot seem to be able to fast forward a stream in firefox.
[06:48] <Stwange> how do I disable the internal speaker?
[06:49] <lgc> stefg, but isn't the second one just power?

[06:49] <JackC> does ubuntu use xinetd or inetd?
[06:49] <bloodytux> Yes.

[06:49] <mikkel> Hello.. i have new problem.. why can i not ./configure for BitchX IRC Client?? : U can see error.. u will help me??
[06:49] <stefg> lgc: on the hardware design... obviuosly it's not in your case
[06:50] <bloodytux> All i did was use a 6.06 LTS live cd to install ubuntu over XP
[06:50] <mzanfardino> JackC: I don't know the context, but when I install vmware server and it requires either inetd or xinetd, I find xinetd is the one that works.

[07:05] <SlimeyPete> kpdf's good
[07:05] <hjmills> natbet, the official adobe pdf reader for something heavier than evince, or g/k/xpdf?
[07:06] <Jack_Sparrow> vox754: That was my point..

[07:29] <Stwange> is there a way to restrict how recursive find is? If I only want it to go one subdirectory deep?
[07:29] <Anlar> berent: mu.
[07:29] <mikkel> How can i remove LOCK from chmod and set lock again?
[07:29] <stefg> berent: that's offtopic here, ask #hardware
[07:29] <vox754> mikkel, read "man chmod"
[07:29] <Bakkar> lol @ this !patience
[07:29] <bobjones_> can someone help me with configuring routes with pptp and network manager applet?
[07:29] <Dr_willis> mikkel,  you may want to google for a chmod tutorial or 2 - to learn what the #'s mean.
[07:29] <wastrel> lock eh
[07:29] <Dr_willis> It pays to learn the Fundamentals like that.

[07:29] <ubotu> mikkel: The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux

[07:31] <dougb> hi, i want to install java but it is asking for my ubuntu install CD, which i dont have at the moment.  if i take out the CD from the repos list, will it just get the files it needs from the ubuntu servers?
[07:31] <vox754> Stwange, well for me, it doesn't list everything, just the files with extension .pl, although you have to remember that grep searches regular expressions which means they can appear in the middle of a file name.
[07:32] <stefg> dougb: yes
[07:32] <dougb> thanks
[07:32] <tantris> bobgill: Or right click on  network icon, connection information, if you prefer that.
[07:32] <stefg> dougb: sudo apt-get update after you edited out the cdrom entry
[07:32] <vox754> Stwange, it can be improved with "grep .pl\> " I think, so you can select starting or ending of a word.
[07:32] <bobgill> stefg: ok.. how do I use this though to set an IP for my networked pc .. I can't find it in the linksys menu :(

[07:34] <vox754> wastrel, I really can remember, but there is a difference \< ^  and \> $
[07:34] <yondie> Bakkar, what language?
[07:34] <stefg> bobgill: this depends on your routers capability. it's got to support arp-locking if you always want to get the same addressvia dhcp
[07:34] <Jack_Sparrow> rustalot: works fine for most systems, there is always a danger when modifying any partition with any program
[07:34] <Bakkar> yondie: Arabic
[07:34] <wastrel> \> seems to be end of word,  $ is end of line.
[07:34] <wastrel> haven
[07:34] <wastrel> 't seen \< or \> before , nifty
[07:34] <rustalot> Jack_Sparrow: will it move data out of the way?

[07:35] <vox754> wastrel, http://tldp.org/LDP/Bash-Beginners-Guide/html/index.html
[07:35] <Jack_Sparrow> rustalot: yes, providing you have enough space for all the files in the partition you are making

[07:41] <dhewg> i know, i noticed that the official reps are gone
[07:41] <stefg> bobgill: i do not understand the question. what is your networked PC? the one you're sitting at right now?
[07:41] <vox754> robmaa, HOW are you trying to install grub? How? From Live CD or from Grub shell?
[07:41] <_losted> dhewg: time to upgrade?
[07:41] <dhewg> just need some stuff like openssl-dev

[07:42] <Bakkar> lol
[07:42] <moustafa> hehehehehehe
[07:42] <_losted> dhewg: my best guess would be find someone who backports like seveas or seerofsouls maybe
[07:43] <Bakkar> vox754: see this is one of the reason i was trying to get help for ubuntu-live-support so I can help ppl without violating any chanel's rules
[07:43] <Bakkar> can you help ?
[07:44] <stefg> bobgill: your router has an IP, and each of the PCs has an ip of it's own. If you tell your 'server' to not get an IP from the 'boss' (router) that doesn't affect the other ones. actually it's quite smart to have a fixed IP for the server,
[07:44] <dredhammer> has anyone tried using tor with wget before?
[07:44] <vox754> Bakkar, no clue. Just keep trying. Documentation must be somewhere.
[07:44] <Bakkar> vox754: thanks
[07:45] <magnetron> dredhammer: you could use "torify wget <url>"
[07:45] <dhewg> _losted: the old binary packages would be sufficient, an archive repository would be the easiest for me
[07:45] <dhewg> but looks like i am out of luck
[07:45] <bobgill> stefg: ok I think I am understanding.. so each pc = server right ? so then say I set this one to x.x.x.x, this will be the IP for this computer but the networked XP PC will stay as 192.168.1.105 ??
[07:45] <Stwange> can anyone tell me what gcc-4.0-doc is? I'm supposed to install it from the terminal but it can't be found, when I google it, it comes up for several debian programs, so I don't know how to update my links for it

[07:48] <vox754> Stwange, use "aptitude search" and "apt-cache search" as much as you can
[07:48] <dhewg> _losted: argh ;)
[07:49] <bullium> rambo3: ???
[07:49] <Stwange> just apt-cache search whateverfileimlookingfor?

[07:49] <_losted> i am trying to figure out how to copy files from one HD to another using the live cd, so I don't have to burn a ton of stuff ;/
[07:50] <bobgill> stefg: thanks for the link =] 
[07:50] <rambo3> bullium, nothing , it only works in #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:50] <vox754> _losted, preferably if those drives are FAT32 or EXT3, otherwise you need ntfs-3g to write to ntfs partitions
[07:50] <bullium> rambo3: had we been in offtopic what would have done?
[07:50] <rambo3> _losted, thats what i did yesterday from /dev/hda2 to larger partition

[07:52] <vox754> robmaa, haha, I meant usint "print screen" or something like that
 Use gparted or cp to copy data
[07:52] <_losted> essentially what i am looking to do is get data to the new one, then refortmat the old one

[07:59] <_losted> rambo, doesn't work
[07:59] <MALEADt> Hi all! Got a problem with my ubuntu7.04 installation, since yesterday my wired network connection doesn't work anymore. dhclient doesn't cach DHCPOFFERs anymore, neither does a static configuration work. Weirdness is that the driver (8139too, for an onboard RTL8100C) does work, as MAC address is recognised AND I can ping "myself" (!= loopback interface), however the status leds of the UTP...
[07:59] <MALEADt> ...port doesn't *blink* when pinging something...
[07:59] <bruenig> IceLink, if you are on feisty should be 2.0.0.4

[08:00] <IceLink> strange, how can i have 2.0.0.1 then >.<
[08:00] <bruenig> IceLink, 1.5 is the latest on dapper unless you used some third party script to install it
[08:00] <Stwange> IceLink - please use weird  instead of strange, it confuses me
[08:00] <robmaa> vox754 have 3 hdds, where the third one should be the one for ubuntu. that is sdc. 1st part. is for /boot and the rest for swap etc. and i want that first partition of that hdd to have grub
[08:00] <zerofactor> hi, i wondered if anyone could help me fix something, i'm pretty much a noob to linux and this is above my head
[08:01] <trelayne> hi all, does anyone know how to log (over time) process IDs that initiate network connections and the connection details (destination IP, port, etc)

[08:01] <mayorbuttes> What dvd copier does nautilus use by default
[08:01] <bruenig> Bakkar, info only searches for packages

[08:01] <bruenig> mayorbuttes, dd I would think
[08:01] <Jack_Sparrow> Hi, didnt mean to keep anyone hanging, I was trying to see if I could make a dos floppy with fdisk using Ubuntu.
[08:01] <bruenig> mayorbuttes, that is what I would use at least

[08:02] <vox754> robmaa, it is recommended that the /boot partition be etx2, not ext3. Try simply without the number, that is /dev/sdc
[08:02] <IceLink> bruenig: may i compile 2.0.0.4 on dapper on my own or isn't that possible
[08:02] <_losted> liquiddoom: rambo3: on the live cd the disks are mounted at /media/disk1 , disk2 etc
[08:02] <bruenig> mayorbuttes, you would use dd to copy a dvd by doing, dd if=/dev/whatever of=name.iso (where whatever is the name of the dvd drive, usually /dev/sr0 or something like that)
[08:02] <wubba> Have any of you setup APF?

[08:04] <Anlar> brylie: no. the normal i386 for new macs.. for older onces, ppc version if it still exists
[08:04] <schwagner> brylie, no, you need the powerpc version
[08:05] <bruenig> Jack_Sparrow, perhaps, it copies it byte by byte, so if there is some way to put a floppy image back on a floppy like you can with isos
[08:05] <IceLink> hm? linxeh, i'm using 2.0.0.1 at the moment
[08:05] <brylie> oh.. where can I get the ppc version of 7.04?
[08:05] <linxeh> IceLink: eg try the feisty deb etc
[08:05] <bruenig> IceLink, do not try a deb, it will break your system likely
[08:05] <linxeh> brylie: what mac do you have ?
[08:05] <magnetron> trelayne: it is. Skype automatically gives away your bandwidth to Skype users from all over the world
[08:05] <Stwange> bruenig: yeah, I'm definately using it, it's just not finding this lib
[08:05] <Jack_Sparrow> trelayne: The way you phrased it "Over TIme" sounded like a long term monitoring application
[08:05] <Anlar> brylie: ppc seems to be discontinued.

[08:08] <EliC> hi. I have a problem with my Ubuntu it keeps changing its IP address every few minutes. The only way I have found that changes it is if I mess up the interfaces file, then it works fine. But with a valid /etc/newtork/interfaces file in place it keeps changing ip address?

[08:08] <Hizzeh> If I'm running on a 64 bit computer, do I NEED to run 64 bit Ubuntu or can I also run 32 bit Ubuntu? I can run 32 bit Windows perfectly fine, so I'm asking because my screen goes black when I try to install Ubuntu 32 bit while 64 bit installed fine
[08:09] <nhy> But what was the question about ppc

[08:09] <mavsman4457> how can I download this source with revision 1 using subversion in the terminal svn://svn.72dpiarmy.com/smw

[08:09] <nhy> I'm using feisty ppc right now
[08:09] <nhy> do you need the link to download it?

[08:09] <llllllll> !minimal
[08:09] <bruenig> mavsman4457, svn co svn://svn.72dpiarmy.com/smw smw
[08:09] <ubotu> The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[08:09] <llllllll> sorry
[08:10] <bruenig> !install | llllllll I think it should explain here

[08:10] <mavsman4457> bruenig: but will that give me revision 1?
[08:10] <Jamesinator> EliC: Most likely you have a misconfigured router or something on your local Ubuntu is constantly releasing your IP. You should check your router's configuration for a "DHCP lease time."
[08:10] <brylie> an organization has a couple of iMacs which need to be liberated of OS 8
[08:10] <zabin> Hizzeh: you can run 32 bit ubuntu
[08:10] <bruenig> mavsman4457, not sure, haven't use svn much, man svn should explain
[08:10] <vox754> Hizzeh, most probably you need the correct drivers for the graphics card. But yes, you should use 32 bit. It is recommended.
[08:10] <Jamesinator> EliC: Make sure it's set to a reasonably long period of time, such as a week.
[08:10] <EliC> Jamesinator its not to do with the router or DHCP server because other computers work fine, and even this computer works fine it I delete/cporrupt the /etc/network/interfaces file

[08:16] <nhy> but I was wondering where the default desktop pictures are located
[08:16] <brylie> linxeh, yes, I looked at pictures of iMacs and they are the same shape as the ones at van-go

[08:17] <magnetron> trelayne: since it is encrypted and on a nonstandard port, don't trust that classification. using skype will consume most of your bandwidth even when you're not making calls with it. there are other, free, alternatives that works better and allows you to choose your dial-out provider among many, and they follow the SIP standard. ekiga that comes with Ubuntu follows the SIP standard for phone calls over Internet.

[08:18] <foomanchew> how do I get it back
[08:18] <d4rkmonkey> foomanchew, try pressing f9?
[08:18] <nhy> brb
[08:18] <vox754> foomanchew, Ctrl+F9
[08:19] <foomanchew> vox754, shot man
[08:19] <foomanchew> phew
[08:19] <d4rkmonkey> vox754, f9 does it in mine... what does ctrl+f9 do?
[08:19] <magnetron> Kosti: dual boot will not remove windows from the hard drive. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo
[08:19] <foomanchew> thanks
[08:19] <vox754> d4rkmonkey, try it

[08:19] <Jamesinator> EliC: renewal in 237 seconds. -- Like I said, your router is misconfigured.

[08:19] <Jamesinator> Sorry, messed up the first line
[08:19] <pandora--> libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found <-- how do i upgrade glibc?
[08:19] <vox754> d4rkmonkey, bingo!
[08:19] <dhewg> _losted: hey, i found it! http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ ;)
[08:19] <Kosti> i'll look into the disc, and read the "how-to" thanks a lot guys
[08:20] <trelayne> magnetron, that is very interesting.....  I've already paid for Skype out unfortunately.... but it would be cool to look into Ekiga... I don't mind bandwidth usage since it's unlimited for  me.. but I only use Skype when I'm out anyway.. which is not often enough
[08:20] <robmaa> vox754 got it installed, rebooted, got to the boot menu of grub, selected ubuntu, kernel 2.6.20-15-generic, but get a error 5: partition table invalid or corrupt :-(
[08:20] <Almindor> how do you add a new partition to be automatically mounted on start (new disk)
[08:20] <vox754> Kosti, it is not hard. Basically you need to free space, once that is done. Your windows won't suffer.
[08:20] <nhy> besides for brylie, are there any other ppc users here?
[08:20] <Almindor> I wanted to edit /etc/fstab but noticed the odd naming
[08:20] <needhelplease> when you install ubuntu with vista does it use the vista BCD by default
[08:20] <trelayne> magnetron,  thanks for the info, i'm a little less paranoid now!
[08:20] <Kosti> vox: i've got about 40 gig free on main HD and about 150gig on another
[08:21] <Kosti> vox: that should be enough.. irght?
[08:21] <nhy> I'm looking for a ppc user to test some debs for compiz-fusion that I made
[08:21] <nhy> I'm thinking of putting them in a repo
[08:21] <magnetron> trelayne: being paranoid is healthy and protects you from being abused by companies and others. good luck
[08:21] <Rageagainstthis> what player can play flash files outside of firefox?
[08:21] <vox754> robmaa, reinstall... Most probably you did something wrong by trying to repartition. So repartition again and reinstall.
[08:21] <brylie> I can't find xUbuntu PPC [7.04 or any version] 
[08:21] <Slart> where can I redefine what network interface gets to be eth0 and which gets to be eth1?
[08:21] <mavsman4457> i'm trying to install smw but when i do ./configure in the terminal it tells me that permission is denied
[08:22] <nhy> brylie: Its deffinetly there somewhere
[08:22] <LDS_Trooper> Greets!
[08:22] <needhelplease> Dual booting Vista Ubunto help please...
[08:22] <nhy> I installed it on my mac
[08:22] <vox754> Kosti, the main folder needs only like 3 GB, all programs may use up to 20 GB, and the rest maybe for your stuff no problems.
[08:22] <nhy> but I installed it from ubuntu
[08:22] <LDS_Trooper> Friend of mine is having trouble burning the Ubuntu download...
[08:22] <nhy> by adding the repo and apt-getting it
[08:22] <brylie> Rageagainstthis, install Gnash
[08:22] <LDS_Trooper> anyone here familiar with nero 7?
[08:22] <lord_spidey> i need some help
[08:22] <Shane-S> this may be an #apache question, but not sure. I have Ubuntu running on a virtual system so I can test new software released before converting my productions sites. Anyway can I "spoof" and IP address yet still keep it active on my lan so my system can test it?
[08:22] <Kosti> vox: will ubunto be able to use my second HD for mass storage stuff? or will i need to partition space on that drice as well?
[08:23] <lord_spidey> is anyone available
[08:23] <Rageagainstthis> brylie: thanks i will checkout gnash
[08:23] <iphv37> lord_spidey, just ask!
[08:23] <nhy> brylie: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/ports/releases/7.04/release/
[08:23] <nhy> thats xubuntu
[08:23] <brylie> Rageagainstthis, are you familiar with apt and or synaptic?
[08:23] <vox754> Kosti, but you need to understand the concept of partition. It is a container for data. So if you currently have only one partition for Windows, you need to resize it and create unallocated space so you can format it as ext3 and use it under ubuntu
[08:23] <trelayne> magnetron,  thanks
[08:23] <Shane-S> I have no GUI, as it is the server version, if I should ask in "#ubuntu-server let me know
[08:23] <vox754> !ubunto > Kosti
[08:23] <LDS_Trooper> what is the best way for someone to burn the Ubuntu Download to a 700mb disc?

[08:25] <redheat> hi thank you for replying
[08:25] <calentorra> YES
[08:25] <vox754> magnetron, I needed to vent
[08:25] <Stwange> I removed something from synaptic with "remove" but I can't install the new version because it still detects it, how do I go back and completely remove it?
[08:25] <nhy> redheat: np
[08:26] <redheat> last time I was talking with Pici and Verb3x about a problem I had while installing nvidia
[08:26] <dvs01> try doing a complete removal
[08:26] <Kosti> :vox754 thanks for all the help, I appreciate it.  got downloading and reading to do now.
[08:26] <redheat> I installed nvidia using tseliot's envy

[08:26] <redheat> and when I try to open the nvidia settings from the application menu I get an error message
[08:26] <mavsman4457> i'm having difficulty installin super mario war from source can comeone lend a hand?
[08:26] <calentorra> BAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
[08:27] <calentorra> GUARRIYPS
[08:27] <redheat> saying that nvidia settings /bin/user..etc. such file or directory does not exist..
[08:27] <redheat> verb3x gave me a command to install nvidia-setting
[08:27] <redheat> and i did
[08:27] <Hizzeh> How do I format the hard disk Ubuntu is installed on?
[08:28] <calentorra> YES
[08:28] <Hizzeh> if I try to install the alternate disk for Ubuntu on the same partition Ubuntu is already installed, will it automatically format it?
[08:28] <redheat> and then he asked to use another command to create a new xorg.conf file..
[08:28] <Kosti> :vox754 should I be downloading the 6.06 LTS version or the 7.04? or does it really matter?
[08:28] <ZeZu> Hizzeh, no
[08:28] <redheat> and then he gave me another command to write into it..and then asked me to restart
[08:28] <calentorra> HI YOU FRON SPAIN
[08:28] <vox754> Hizzeh, yes, it will ask you to.
[08:28] <jrib> calentorra: /join #ubuntu-es
[08:28] <calentorra> OK
[08:28] <ZeZu> perhaps with auto. install
[08:28] <TwigEther> Having probs with grub, windows won't boot. Says "Starting up..." and hangs.
[08:29] <TwigEther> Anyone got ideas?
[08:29] <redheat> now when I restart  Iget a failed xserver error saying that devices was found and nvidia was compiled correctlry but no device was found, unlike that error
[08:29] <ZeZu> else it will have an option, but it will be no by default
[08:29] <vox754> Kosti, new stuff is in 7.04 like desktop effects and firefox 2.0.
[08:29] <calentorra> PHOTO
[08:29] <redheat> which says device found but no usable configuration..
[08:29] <stefg> !grub | TwigEther
[08:29] <ubotu> TwigEther: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[08:29] <Kosti> :vox754 decision made! i love the firefox lol
[08:29] <calentorra> PHOTO
[08:29] <Hizzeh> With the alternate text base installer, do I burn it to a CD and start up the computer the same way?
[08:29] <Hizzeh> as with the live CD?
[08:29] <redheat> nhy are you with me
[08:29] <needhelplease> how do you install ubuntu to root partition ????
[08:29] <Pici> Hizzeh: yes.
[08:30] <TwigEther> ubotu: amusingly I've got it the other way around; can boot ubuntu can't boot windows :(
[08:30] <d4rkmonkey> Kosti, you can still get firefox in dapper...
[08:30] <redheat> Pici. hi man
[08:30] <EliC_> jamesinator http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28370 sorry I lost my internet connection for a bit. please resend anything you sent me since then.
[08:30] <redheat> sorry for bothering you
[08:30] <TwigEther> uh, stefg too
[08:30] <d4rkmonkey> Kosti, its just an older version and you have to upgrade I believe
[08:30] <redheat> I have done what verb3x told me
[08:30] <redheat> now I can't login into ubuntand the xserver won't start..
[08:30] <redheat> hello pici
[08:31] <Kosti> :d4rkmonkey in that case, is it better to have the older version (th'ats supporte until 09) or the newer version that's only suported through 08?
[08:31] <redheat> or nhy
[08:31] <vox754> Kosti, it maybe a matter of drivers too. For instance, should you need a more recent kernel, an their modules you should go with 7.04. Dapper has Firefox 1.5 but there is a way to upgrade as d4rkmonkey says.
[08:31] <b^j> when i try to connect to my windows mobile 6 phone over bluetooth with my ubuntu laptop the connection drops after a couple seconds, anyone have some bluetooth skills who can help me diagnose the issue?
[08:31] <d4rkmonkey> Kosti, go with 7.04
[08:31] <Kosti> I'm lean'n to 7.04
[08:31] <d4rkmonkey> Kosti, as vox754 said, it has newer drivers and overal its better
[08:31] <Stwange> sudo aptitude purge vmware has come up with about 7 packages, but none were removed
[08:31] <vbanait> hi
[08:31] <Kosti> easy choice then
[08:31] <redheat> Pici, nhy can you help me please?
[08:31] <Kosti> thanks
[08:32] <redheat> can anyone help me please?
[08:32] <d4rkmonkey> redheat, what do you need?
[08:32] <vox754> Kosti, old or "really stable" distributions exist for a reason: servers.  Anyway, eating time!
[08:32] <redheat> yes, my xserver won't start and it says that the nvidia kernel was compiled and done correctly only it can't locate the device..

[08:34] <b^j> anyone with bluetooth skills have a second to help me figure out why this bluetooth connection to my phone keeps dieing?
[08:35] <EliC_> Can anyone help me troubleshoot a DHCP problem?
[08:35] <b^j> EliC_, what is the issue?
[08:35] <EliC_> my ip address keeps changing every few minutes.
[08:36] <EliC_> b^j Its not the DHCP server because other computers in the network work fine, and even this computer works if I corrupt the /etc/network/interfaces file
[08:36] <fisherwork> hooray!  i'm in
[08:36] <mavsman4457> can someone help me compile a program?
[08:36] <b^j> EliC_, do you admin the dhcp server, what does the dhcp server run on, what is the lease time
[08:36] <nhy> redheat: You still there
[08:36] <nhy> I had to leave for a minute
[08:36] <nhy> Are you still here?
[08:36] <lord_spidey> help
[08:36] <lord_spidey> please
[08:36] <lord_spidey> i have a ut2004 dvd in my dvd drive but i cannot open so i have no access to the installer
[08:37] <lord_spidey> the dvd is in the drive but when i go to the dvd drive icon i get this Unable to mount media.
[08:37] <EliC_> b^j I cannot control the dhcp server. I don't know what the lease time is but I know ubuntu says that 'renewal in 250 seconds' (approx - exact renwal times vary each time)
[08:37] <d4rkmonkey> mavsman4457, I might be able to help...
[08:37] <needhelplease> is there someway to install grub to root partition at install of ubuntu its not lost its not installed all i need is to install it with grub on root partiton so i can use vista boot loader like any other linux I know its a hard question might take a fraction of a second to answer since ive been asking nicly for an hr
[08:37] <EliC_> b^j other computers work fine on the same server though
[08:37] <d4rkmonkey> lord_spidey, have you ever used the drive in Ubuntu before?
[08:37] <b^j> EliC_, wow, thats a short lease, odd
[08:37] <EliC_> b^j as I said if I remove or corrupt /etc/newtork/interfaces then I don't have this problem.
[08:37] <lord_spidey> nop
[08:37] <mavsman4457> l4rkmoneky: ok thank you i am trying to install super mario war and when i type in ./configure it says i don't have permission
[08:37] <linxeh> needhelplease: the installer has an option for that iirc
[08:38] <b^j> EliC_, odd
[08:38] <d4rkmonkey> lord_spidey, I'm having a similar issue.
[08:38] <needhelplease> iirc ??
[08:38] <d4rkmonkey> lord_spidey, do lspci in the terminal and see if you can find anything about a CD drive?
[08:38] <EliC_> b^j do you or anyone else know how to fix it?
[08:38] <stefg> EliC_: _do you really need network-manager ?
[08:38] <linxeh> needhelplease: if I remember correctly..
[08:38] <EliC_> stefg I don't know. Do I need it? what does it do?
[08:38] <openguru> any one here with p5w dh deluxe with remote working ?
[08:38] <b^j> EliC_, does anything odd show up in your /var/log/daemons file
[08:39] <stefg> EliC_: support roaming  between different wlans
[08:39] <demonspork> How do I set up a startup command? I am trying to launch the tightvncserver without having to login
[08:39] <EliC_> stefg I'm not on a wireless network.
[08:39] <EliC_> b^j the file is blank.
[08:39] <needhelplease> yea it says fatal error
[08:39] <mavsman4457> l4rkmoneky: you still here?
[08:40] <IceLink> how do i kill a process?
[08:40] <d4rkmonkey> yes I am mavsman4457
[08:40] <d4rkmonkey> I'm not sure how much I can help though
[08:40] <rem> kill -9 "pid"
[08:40] <b^j> EliC_, odd, try setting a longer lease in your /etc/dhcp3/dhcpclient.conf
[08:40] <IceLink> and how to get the pid?
[08:40] <stefg> EliC_: sudo apt-get remove --purge network-manager avahi-daemon. get rid of the buggy junk first
[08:40] <EliC_> ok
[08:40] <nhy> !ubotu | nhy
[08:40] <rem> ps -eaf
[08:40] <mavsman4457> IceLink: go to go to system then amdinistration the system monitor
[08:40] <Stwange> where are the autostart session commands?
[08:40] <needhelplease> if the partiton is "sda4" the (hd0) would be (hd0:3) correct
[08:40] <rem> ps -eaf | grep "app"
[08:40] <b^j> EliC_, actually, try killing network manager first
[08:40] <mavsman4457> then the process tab
[08:40] <rem> u see the pid on the left ..
[08:41] <judgen> howdy
[08:41] <demonspork> IceLink, ps ax will give you a process list, then you can use "kill -9 "pid"
[08:41] <b^j> EliC_, i had a similar issue back in dapper i think
[08:41] <fisherwork> Can someone help me with the proper rm syntax to remove /usr/lib/ICAClient so I can remove it and reinstall Citrix 10.6?  Thanks!
[08:41] <judgen> why does ubuntu grind my hdd so hard.
[08:41] <pike_> demonspork: the command 'su - username -c "vncserver :portnum"' will work in a startup script. we used to have about 30 lines of that for users on one of our linux boxes
[08:41] <mavsman4457> l4rkmoneky: i am having difficulty installing super mario war
[08:41] <IceLink> i don't find the process for mozilla thunderbird >.<
[08:41] <mavsman4457> l4rkmoneky: and when i try ./configure it says permission denied
[08:41] <rem> judgen..could be beagle .. check with top
[08:42] <judgen> rem it isnt. I run a server install
[08:42] <rem> or not enouhg ram -> swappin ..
[08:42] <judgen> rem i dont even have x
[08:42] <demonspork> pike_ thx, but now where to do I put that line?
[08:42] <rem> free -m
[08:42] <EliC_> b^j stefg ok its gone. Now what? do I need to restart?
[08:43] <b^j> EliC_, i would kill all instances of dhclient and then do /etc/init.d/networking restart
[08:43] <EliC_> how do u kill instances of dhclient?
[08:43] <d4rkmonkey> mavsman4457, uhh have you tried sudo ./configure? And are you in the proper folder?
[08:43] <Stwange> how do I modify startup processes?
[08:43] <b^j> EliC_, killall dhclient
[08:43] <envi0us> y0
[08:43] <stefg> EliC_: would be good. then check system-admin-network-settings how the unencumbered network conf looks
[08:43] <zeque> alguien q use Feisty en un laptop V3218LA? somebody that use Feisty on a laptop V3218LA?
[08:43] <judgen> anyone got any ideas about my hdd grinding?
[08:43] <envi0us> I have a new wireless adpater, d-link xtreme n
[08:43] <judgen> dapper never did this for me
[08:43] <envi0us> how can I check for drivers?
[08:44] <mavsman4457> l4rkmoneky: yes i am and yes i have, when i did it gave me command ./configure does not exist
[08:44] <dvs01> how do i share usb devices over the network with windows<->linux? i want usb devices that are on my linux machine to appear as if theyre actually connected to my windows machine. i can do this windows<->windows with a program called 'usb over network', but dont know of any cross-platform solutions
[08:44] <EliC_> still renewal time of 262 seconds
[08:44] <mavsman4457> l4rkmoneky: actually it said command not found
[08:44] <d4rkmonkey> do you have the correct package installed?
[08:44] <d4rkmonkey> like for ./configure
[08:44] <d4rkmonkey> its somethning like build-essential
[08:45] <envi0us> dwa-652 card
[08:45] <mavsman4457> i think, maybe not though
[08:45] <d4rkmonkey> check that
[08:45] <mavsman4457> what package do i need
[08:45] <IceLink> can anybody tell me why i cannot find thunderbird in the process list? >.< it's running, however it's told me when startin thunderbird
[08:45] <d4rkmonkey> I'm pretty sure its build-essential
[08:45] <mavsman4457> l4rkmoneky: and how do i check if i do
[08:45] <ekingery> Hi everyone.  I have a nasty little bug where my keyboard will stop responding at random times. Anyone care to give me some advice?
[08:45] <d4rkmonkey> let me check if I have the right package one second
[08:45] <b^j> EliC_, hmm, i guess its time to try to force it higher in the /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf
[08:45] <d4rkmonkey> just do sudo apt-get install build-essential
[08:46] <mavsman4457> l4rkmoneky: yup i've already got it
[08:46] <d4rkmonkey> ok
[08:46] <d4rkmonkey> are you compiling from a tar ?
[08:46] <b^j> EliC_, other then that i am at a loss, if you are sure that you don't have a rogue dhcp server sitting out there and everything else works fine
[08:46] <envi0us> I have a new wireless adpater, d-link xtreme n dwa-652 card. How do I check if ubuntu has drivers for it?
[08:46] <EliC_> b^j ok how do I do that? And why is it necessary to do that?
[08:46] <mavsman4457> no just a normal folder
[08:46] <lord_spidey> help
[08:46] <lord_spidey> i have a ut2004 dvd in my dvd drive but i cannot open so i have no access to the installer
[08:46] <lord_spidey> i have a ut2004 dvd in my dvd drive but i cannot open so i have no access to the installer
[08:46] <d4rkmonkey> what are you trying to compile?
[08:46] <nhy> does anyone know of a program that I can use to create a repository
[08:46] <EliC_> b^j as I said everthing else seems to work fine. the DHCP server used to work fine with this computer, as I said if I corrupt the /etc/network/interfaces file then the dhcp server works fine, and other [windows]  machines also work fine.
[08:46] <judgen> lord_spidey is it mountable?
[08:47] <mavsman4457> l4rkmoneky: super mario war
[08:47] <d4rkmonkey> give me a second and I'll see if I can give you some more specific help
[08:47] <mavsman4457> ok thank you
[08:47] <b^j> EliC_, i don't know why you should need to, but if something overwritting the setting it could fix it.  the option you want in the dhclient.conf is send dhcp-lease-time 3600; just uncomment the line, kill dhclient and give it a shot again
[08:48] <envi0us> I have a new wireless adpater, d-link xtreme n dwa-652 card. How do I check if ubuntu has drivers for it?
[08:48] <d4rkmonkey> mavsman4457, why don't you just try the .deb package?
[08:48] <d4rkmonkey> instead of compiling yourself
[08:48] <mavsman4457> l4rkmoneky: i am installing this on a ppc

[08:49] <EliC_> b^j no still 256 seconds renewal time.
[08:49] <d4rkmonkey> mavsman4457, I'm not exactly sure what difference it would make, http://www.nintexbox.com/files/smw-1.7-0.deb is where the .deb is but I'm not sure about the difference with installing on a ppc
[08:49] <mavsman4457> nhy: what is that
[08:49] <b^j> EliC_, i am at a loss
[08:49] <EliC_> b^j thanks for tryting. I have to go now anyway but I'll try again another time. Thanks once again :)
[08:49] <envi0us> I have a new wireless adpater, d-link xtreme n dwa-652 card. How do I check if ubuntu has drivers for it?
[08:50] <d4rkmonkey> mavsman4457, its like beryl + compiz
[08:50] <chad_AFK> envi0us:  do you have ubuntu installed ?
[08:50] <mavsman4457> nhy: is that a window manager or something?
[08:50] <Mathdiver> hello everybody
[08:50] <envi0us> yes
[08:50] <nhy> beryl combined with compiz and they named the new combined program compiz fusion
[08:50] <chad_AFK> plug it in then ..
[08:50] <envi0us> I did, but I do not see it being detected.
[08:50] <d4rkmonkey> mavsman4457, compiz fusion is a bunch of cool effects for your comp I think
[08:50] <b^j> anyone know a good place to ask bluetooth questions?
[08:51] <nhy> yes
[08:51] <envi0us> ifconfig does not show the card
[08:51] <needhelplease> if a partition is "sda4" how would that tranlate to (hd0)
[08:51] <IceLink> how do i set the owner of a file?
[08:51] <nhy> compiz fusion adds effects to the desktop
[08:51] <b^j> IceLink, chown
[08:51] <mavsman4457> nhy: well as long as it doesn't mess up my kernel then i will, and it must be ppc ocmpatible
[08:51] <nhy> i.e. 3d and wavy windows
[08:51] <novato_br> poxa, a net eh mto legal, mesmo
[08:51] <d4rkmonkey> mavsman4457, shouldn't screw your kernel, When I try it it freezes my comp though because the graphics card isn't really officially supported
[08:52] <novato_br> sorry

[09:02] <ubotu> superkaramba is an application that gives you interactive eye-candy on your desktop. To get themes for it, head over to http://kde-look.org
[09:02] <vox754> Mathdiver, did you reboot? Also, it doesn't necessarily mean that drivers is being used.
[09:03] <RivaeAerya> judgen: i'm not using KDE
[09:03] <Mathdiver> vox754: yes :)
[09:03] <shwouchk> is there a util that allows easy switching of ubuntu mirrors?
[09:03] <lord_spidey> errr

[09:03] <demonspork> Nikelei, what cd burning program do you have?
[09:03] <lord_spidey> i have a ut2004 dvd in my dvd drive but i cannot open so i have no access to the installer
[09:03] <lord_spidey> its says unable to mount media the is probabely no media in the drive
[09:03] <Mathdiver> vox754:  so, maybe it tells me that another driver exists, but it is not loaded?
[09:04] <vox754> Mathdiver, yes, what is important is that it is not listed in "lsmod"
[09:04] <RivaeAerya> judgen: but i'm looking at KDE and have to say it looks nice.. how's it in practice?
[09:04] <IceLink> how good, my ubuntu is alm,ost completely ready for uworling with
[09:04] <judgen> RivaeAerya i like kde more than gnome
[09:04] <vox754> Mathdiver, you may need to blacklist other modules. That works for some.
[09:05] <ed_> hello
[09:05] <judgen> RivaeAerya kde is faster on my computer than gnome and its alot more configurable. But some people dont like that
[09:05] <ed_> I'm trying to use $3 to identify the active username in a script but it's not working (echo returns nothing for $3), how can I do this?
[09:06] <Mathdiver> vox754: i do not know... i am trying to use my wifi card with ndiswrapper
[09:06] <Mathdiver> vox754: now i try lsmod. I did not know that command
[09:06] <magnetron> ed_: echou $USER
[09:07] <magnetron> ed_: echo $USER
[09:07] <RivaeAerya> judgen: i don't like that.
[09:07] <ed_> thank you magnetron, works great :D
[09:07] <vox754> Mathdiver, you learn new things everyday. Search the forums, there may be a guide exactly for your atheros card, laptop, model, etc.
[09:07] <madduck> i just installed feisty on a new R60 and it all seems to work fine except for s2ram. if i resume, the screen is black, it's lit, but X does not show. also, the machine gets no IP address it seems. I cannot SSH into it or continue an SSH session from before the suspend. any idea what i should do to make s2ram work? s2disk works alright.
[09:08] <filthpig> So.. Bought a ZyXEL Prestige 660hwt wireless routermodem and a linksys wireless usb adapter yesterday.. It all works well in windows, but not in ubuntu.. I do find the network, but using wep I cannot connect to it, disabling wep gets me connected but not on the net.. Although I'm connected to the router I cannot access it..
[09:08] <Pici> ed_: $3 is reserved for the 3rd variable passed to the script
[09:08] <ed_> oh
[09:08] <robmaa> ok, got ubuntu working, but when i select it in the boot menu, i see the kernel loading message at the bottom and the screen goes black.... had that with the install too, had to change from vga to 1024x768... cant i do that now, too?

[09:12] <cas> filthpig: where do you get your codecs ?
[09:12] <mojojojo_> I think everything which is available...
[09:12] <Pici> BFrank: aptitude show cdrecord: This is a dummy package to ease the transition to wodim, the fork of cdrecord.  It provides a cdrecord symlink to wodim for compatibility purposes.  Please use wodim instead of cdrecord.
[09:12] <sam_> hey
[09:12] <mojojojo_> and with no results...
[09:12] <stiev> Is using something like KOrganizer w/ubuntu a bad practice?  It seems like KOrganizer > Evolution for my intentions.

[09:14] <Jamesinator> vip3rousmango: ClamAV?
[09:15] <pike_> Nikelei: make sure when you burn the cd you burn image not just the filename to the cd. then youll need to check the documentation (google) for your model to see a guide for the boot order

[09:18] <Jamesinator> surviver: Ah, good for you. I've only been using Ubuntu as my primary OS for a few days, before that I had only used Linux via SSH on remote dedicated servers
[09:18] <Pici> ed_: $? is the exit status of the previous command.
[09:18] <vox754> robmaa, I don't get this, "but i was able to change from vga to 1024x768, which doesnt work in the boot loader..."   how did you change that if you couldn't boot?
[09:18] <vontux> filthpig: have you tried googling with any success for how to's with your particular device?
[09:18] <surviver> jamesinator, ow nice :)
[09:19] <Nikelei> vox754,thanks,in BIOS i am already changed(first from CD)Maybe it's problem with cd,because i made this cd by myself,first i downloaded Ubuntu after i just put this files to cd(mean=made)??   ,

[09:19] <robmaa> vox754 i could change that before starting the installation from the live dvd

[09:19] <Dusk_> i have this error http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28379/

[09:23] <sam_> !lamp
[09:23] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[09:23] <pi3> what does a line (not a tick nor in blank) mean in the executing permissions of a file?
[09:23] <Jamesinator> Dusk_: Don't hold me to this, but it looks like you can't remove them because they weren't installed properly in the first place, since they don't have the dependencies they require

[09:24] <kazol> What GRUB file should I edit on a LiveCD to change the (hd0,0) parameters?
[09:24] <asdokasdofj> I followed the document on ubuntuforums.org to update my kernel (build from source) and now when I attempt to use the new kernel it gives me tons of errors such as "depmod: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6 cannot open shared object files: no such file or directory"   any ideas? I just followed the instructions to build some deb packages.....
[09:24] <robmaa> vox754 starting up kernel alive is all i see, plus there was no splash entry, only quiet, whichi removed, but still, black screen
[09:25] <Dusk_> Jamesinator, -f don't make any sense..still i can not remove :(
[09:25] <asdokasdofj> kazol - just hit escape at boot from the live cd and then edit the kernel boot options there.
[09:25] <cidco> so anyone have any history of setting up a mail server with large mailboxes?
[09:25] <asdokasdofj> Anyone have any ideas for my issue?
[09:25] <Jamesinator> Dusk_: Sorry, I'm just going on the instructions apt-get suggested at the end of the error message
[09:25] <Jester45> vip, the live cd doesnt run from in windows it runs from the cd... you done even need a harddrive to run the livecd
[09:25] <asdokasdofj> cidco - use Maildir's they are much more efficient.
[09:25] <Jamesinator> Dusk_: Does sudo apt-get remove compiz work?
[09:25] <d4rkmonkey> Sam330, what do you mean?
[09:25] <Nikelei> kram92, but how to boot)?
[09:25] <Jamesinator> Dusk_: Instead of compiz-core?
[09:25] <cidco> asdokasdofj: even over a terabyte?
[09:25] <asdokasdofj> cidco - how many emails are part of that terabyte
[09:26] <Dusk_> Jamesinator, no :(
[09:26] <asdokasdofj> anyone know how to help me with my issue?
[09:26] <filthpig> Jamesinator: You don't have any suggestions for me? :]  I feel it's just a wee little detail I've forgot, but I'm not sure what..
[09:26] <cidco> hundreds of thousands
[09:26] <Sjimmie> asdokasdofj: postfix

[09:26] <ubotu> Setting up an ADSL/PPPoE connection? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE

[09:27] <Jamesinator> Dusk_: Thanks, I'll check it out
[09:27] <Sam330> Well, I am not able to install Ubuntu on my computer (because its a school laptop on loan), but I want to be able to access some Ubuntu applications even though I can not install them onto the actual Ubuntu part (Because I am running oof of a LiveCD), so is it possible to install the ubuntu apps onto my local hard drive (Win Win2k on it) and access them from Ubuntu when I load from LiveCD? If so, How?
[09:27] <`Matir> I need to get a new minipci-based wireless card for this laptop
[09:27] <vox754> robmaa, and what about the "single user" kernel option
[09:27] <fisherwork> Can someone help me with the proper rm syntax to remove /usr/lib/ICAClient so I can remove it and reinstall Citrix 10.6?  Thanks!
[09:28] <CppIsWeird> what does this mean "Non-Free Linux 2.6.20 modules" under updates. what does "Non-Free" mean?
[09:28] <fisherwork> it gives me a permissions error so i assume it's a sudo command
[09:28] <Jester45> Sam330, try an emulator like qemu or vbox
[09:28] <vox754> CppIsWeird, Not open source. They make them and distribute them, but the source code is not known.
[09:28] <CppIsWeird> VoX, who is "they" ?
[09:29] <darkskye> hi
[09:29] <vox754> robmaa, use the "vga=789" option in the kernel line.
[09:29] <darkskye> I have my wifi card in, but ubuntu is not detecting the card in the device manager.
[09:29] <stefg> Sam330: maybe https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent has an idea for you
[09:29] <sam_> can anyone help me in using tasksel
[09:29] <sam_> ?
[09:29] <fisherwork> yeh welcome to the headache of ubuntu: wifi
[09:29] <darkskye> therefore, I cannot get an ip address to get on to the internet.
[09:29] <asdokasdofj> I followed the document on ubuntuforums.org to update my kernel (build from source) and now when I attempt to use the new kernel it gives me tons of errors such as "depmod: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6 cannot open shared object files: no such file or directory"   any ideas? I just followed the instructions to build some deb packages.....
[09:29] <vox754> CppIsWeird, they... mmm... I don't know, I guess nvidia, atheros and all those other binary only drivers.
[09:29] <Jamesinator> Dusk_: One of the posters there suggests that you go through the packages reported as having errors in that error message with Synaptic and fix them
[09:29] <darkskye> hehe, fisherwork.
[09:30] <ztripez> can any help me to resolve the .local issue???
[09:30] <CppIsWeird> vox754, ah, ok. so you reccomend i upgrade to them?
[09:30] <kazol> asdokasdofj: Could I just change the boot options at suse startup?
[09:30] <money> !ati
[09:30] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:30] <Jamesinator> Dusk_: There was also a suggestion that you do "sudo apt-get remove compiz-core desktop-effects" and then "sudo apt-get -f install", but I'm not sure what that will do
[09:30] <asdokasdofj> kazol - yes
[09:30] <Dusk_> Jamesinator, i've gone to synaptic and filtered the broken ones..but still it gives me errors
[09:30] <robmaa> vox754 heard there are quite some problems with the 64bit version of ubuntu 7.04, like flash player not working and so on... would you recommend me switching from my 64 to 32bit, even if i will maybe have 4gb of ram in half a year?
[09:31] <xif> So I want to run an SSH server on my local station, what should I do?
[09:31] <vox754> CppIsWeird, if they work, why not? But some people consider this not a real solution.
[09:31] <Dusk_> Jamesinator, desktop-effects solution doesn't work either :(
[09:31] <`Matir> xif: install openssh-server
[09:31] <Jamesinator> Dusk_: Using synaptic, can you select the broken packages and mark them for reinstallation?
[09:31] <kazol> asdokasdofj: I cannot edit because the 2nd HD does not boot on it's own.
[09:31] <CppIsWeird> vox754, i have no idea, it was in the ubuntu update
[09:31] <Dusk_> Jamesinator, yes i can..but while installing it gives me error
[09:31] <zaggynl> Anyone knows how to get rid of the hourglass in the lower left corner in open office presentation when changing slides?
[09:31] <asdokasdofj> if it's grub just hit escape to alter your boot options when you see the grub screen
[09:31] <hartwell> I am having trouble editing a file created by root
[09:31] <xif> `Matir: the Guide says to do `sudo apt-get install ssh` http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_SSH_Server_for_remote_administration_service
[09:31] <psycose> Hi, i'm trying to install libqt4-dev in Ubuntu Feisty (i686 up to date) but seems it is broke do you know how could i handle this thanks
[09:31] <vox754> robmaa, yes, use 32 bit version. The 64 bit is recommended for servers which use more than 4 GB ram.
[09:32] <kazol> asdokasdofj: What if the 2nd HD cannot boot on it's own?
[09:32] <sam_> how do i make a shortcut on my desktop to a folder?
[09:32] <Dusk_> Jamesinator, i try to remove them but there are some dependencies like "ubuntu-desktop"
[09:32] <vox754> CppIsWeird, I downloaded them too. But as I don't have that kind of hardware, they are of no use to me.
[09:32] <`Matir> xif: ssh depends on openssh-client and openssh-server
[09:32] <robmaa> hm ok, because of my crappy internet speed will dl the cd of that and install it, hope it will work better
[09:32] <Jamesinator> Dusk_: Are you using KDE or a window manager other than GNOME?
[09:32] <Dusk_> Jamesinator, if i uninstall ubuntu desktop what happens to 'X' ??
[09:32] <alidemar> REcien acabo de instalar el ubuntu, y no voy ni pa atra ni pa delante con esto...
[09:32] <jrib> sam_: you can either create a symlink or a launcher
[09:32] <xif> `Matir: I see, thanks :)
[09:32] <Jamesinator> Dusk_: Oh, you're using Xubuntu?
[09:32] <Dusk_> Jamesinator, no i use gnome
[09:32] <sam_> how?
[09:33] <Jamesinator> Dusk_: Hmm
[09:33] <Sam330> if I do: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent on my iPod will id ruin my iPod you think?
[09:33] <sam_> if i create a launcher it will only let me do it for a file, not a folder
[09:33] <bobgill> any way to open .cab files in ubuntu ?
[09:33] <Jamesinator> Dusk_: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop ?
[09:33] <jrib> sam_: well symlink, you right click on the folder -> make link .  Launcher you can right click on your panel -> add to panel -> custom launcher, then drag to your desktop
[09:33] <Dusk_> !ubuntu-desktop
[09:33] <Mathdiver> filthpig: have you said that with a LinkSys i should have no problem with linux driver?
[09:33] <ubotu> k/ed/x/ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading.
[09:33] <magnetron> sam_: right click on the original folder and make a link for it. then move that link to the desktop
[09:34] <sam_> the 'make link' function is frozen out
[09:34] <Dusk_> Jamesinator, i'm gonna unistall it i think
[09:34] <ed_> what should directories by chmodded to?
[09:34] <kazol> asdokasdofj: Do you know the path of the file?
[09:34] <Mathdiver> a pci card LinkSys ?
[09:34] <Jamesinator> Dusk_: It doesn't exist in the first place if you're having dependency issues with a package that depends on it
[09:34] <jrib> sam_: you can create a launcher, just type out the path instead of selecting it
[09:34] <sam_> ok

[09:35] <Mathdiver> filthpig: have you said that with a LinkSys PCI card, i should have no problem with linux driver?
[09:35] <jrib> sam_: depends where you mounted it, type 'mount'
[09:35] <sam_> ?

[09:40] <atollena> any idea why I am no longer considered a sudoer by Gnome ? I mean I don't have the icons in the "system/administration" menu and no update notification since I updated to feisty
[09:40] <judgen> Iwizzard crystal is in the standard repo
[09:40] <Dusk_> Jamesinator, it's compiz...and it has 2 dependencies called..desktop-effects and ubuntu-desktop
[09:40] <Iwizzard> aha

[09:42] <ismailaltuntas> hi
[09:42] <totherabc> Where can I find a beginners C++ project. nice would be an international 3rd party project with beginners an advanced people that u  can learn c++ and help others
[09:42] <totherabc> has anyone an idea where i can find that?
[09:42] <Jamesinator> totherabc: http://www.freshmeat.net
[09:42] <atollena> totherabc: ask on #c++
[09:43] <yotta|lap> anyone know where i can get help with my thinkpad?
[09:43] <totherabc> thx a lot
[09:43] <asdokasdofj> can anyone please lend me a hand
[09:43] <asdokasdofj> I followed the document on ubuntuforums.org to update my kernel (build from source) and now when I attempt to use the new kernel it gives me tons of errors such as "depmod: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6 cannot open shared object files: no such file or directory"   any ideas? I just followed the instructions to build some deb packages.....
[09:43] <yotta|lap> it keeps overheating cause the fan doesn't turn on soon enough.
[09:43] <vox754> totherabc, you can hang out in #ubuntu-programming but don't expect a lot of people.
[09:43] <sx66> how do you fix the boot menu to show winxphome, I can see the disk on my desktop, but it is not in the menu for booting.
[09:44] <darkskye> Is ther an apt-get install <package> that I can run to download files for my wifi card?

[09:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about desktop-effects - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:44] <chadeldridge> how do you install a .bin file ?

[09:44] <jrib> chadeldridge: what are you trying to install?
[09:44] <Dusk_> !ubuntu-desktop
[09:44] <ubotu> k/ed/x/ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading.

[09:45] <b^j> i am having an issue where i am trying to connect to my phone to use a bluetooth PAN network.  I can do it on my Mac.  when i try to connect with my ubuntu laptop or my nokia 770 the bluetooth connection dies after a couple seconds.  I can keep a connection up between the 770 and the laptop but not between either and the phone.  any ideas on how to diagnose this or pointers to another channel that can help me?
[09:45] <darkskye> ok, thanks jrib.
[09:46] <vox754> b^j, check the bug reports at launchpad. Also view the output of "dmesg | less"
[09:46] <jrib> chadeldridge: in general, you just run them (./file) after making them executable (chmod +x file) but this file can do anything so make sure you trust the author or read the source code
[09:46] <Rafael_Kafka> Good afternoon, fellows
[09:46] <sx66> how do you fix the boot menu to show winxphome, I can see the disk on my desktop, but it is not in the menu for booting.
[09:46] <`Matir> man pidgin is "lacking" as an IRC client
[09:46] <Nikelei> yotta,check IBM sites
[09:46] <chadeldridge> jrib:  yeah that is my usual routine for .bins .. but this one doesnt seem to want to play nice ... ill beat it
[09:46] <b^j> VoX, dmesg gives me nothing useful, the connection is dieing on 2 separate distros, is it likely a bug then?
[09:46] <magikid> Matir: I agree
[09:47] <Rafael_Kafka> I am searching in google but don't find how to purge utf-8 in ubuntu and only use iso8859-1 because utf-8 don't recognize portuguese signals
[09:47] <magikid> Matir: Use bitchx
[09:47] <squee_> Does ubuntu have autorun?
[09:47] <tola> hi, how do I got about fixing my grub bootloader? Do I boot from my ubuntu CD and do something? I've rendered my system unbootable by installing Ubunut Studio (already have Ubuntu and Windows XP installed)
[09:47] <Nikelei> squee,has
[09:47] <tyn0r> bonsoir a tous :p
[09:47] <vox754> b^j, yes, hardware, signals, bits, bugs, yeah

[09:48] <Veejay> Hi
[09:48] <Bill_> can anyone here help me with mount point for installing linux on a partitioned HD?
[09:48] <magikid> tola: are you just looking to change the book options or order?
[09:48] <squee_> jrib,  Nikelei: What about from a cd or a thumbdrive?  Like how windows will run a program from autorun.ini
[09:48] <Jamesinator> !anyone | Bill_
[09:48] <ubotu> Bill_: 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?
[09:49] <Consty> I'm having a problem with NetworkManager.  It seems it doesn't show multiple wireless networks with the same ESSID.  It only attempts to join the first one that is detected and fails to even show the other one even though iwlist scanning displays it.
[09:49] <tyn0r> :p merci
[09:49] <Consty> I'm forced to manually set the ESSID and Channel for which I want to join in the terminal because Network Manager doesn't show both.  Is there a way to fix this or use a different app?
[09:49] <Veejay> I have a little problem finding the proper package to report a bug against. It's a problem with the ubuntu splash screen that appears when I log in
[09:49] <tola> magikid:  yes I think so
[09:49] <Veejay> Does anyone have any idea about the name of the package?
[09:49] <reaper> i'm installing ubuntu with windows xp through vmware, any recommended minimum specs?
[09:49] <magikid> tola: can you get to a shell prompt?
[09:49] <Bill_> uhh, i need to know what to put as mount point for my linux partition.  Its already Part.ed, and i wanna be able to choose which OS (windows/ubuntu) to boot into upon startup
[09:49] <jrib> squee_: yes, it will take appropriate action with removable media... see system -> preferences -> removable drives and media
[09:50] <tola> magikid: not unless I boot from a live CD, I get a GRUB error 21 when I boot from the hard disk
[09:50] <Jamesinator> Bill_: Ubuntu should automatically install GRUB upon installation. GRUB is a bootmanager that will let you choose which OS you would like to boot into.
[09:50] <Dusk_> Jamesinator, is there a way to install a package without its dependencies?
[09:50] <jrib> Dusk_: dependencies are called "dependencies" for a reason
[09:50] <Dusk_> !dependency
[09:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dependency - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:50] <liquiddoom> !vmware > liquiddoom
[09:50] <Nikelei> squee_,If you want to install Ubuntu, you need first to boot from InstallCD,(Bios),it doesnt have .ini
[09:50] <Jamesinator> Dusk_: Not that I know of. You can download it, sure, but if it doesn't have its dependencies it will fail catastrophically either on setup or runtime
[09:51] <Bill_> okay, well GRUB is good, i just need to specify a mount point for linux, and i dont know what to do, I hear if you do partitions wrong it ban mess up one's whole system
[09:51] <Dusk_> !dependencies
[09:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dependencies - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:51] <squee_> jrib, alright, here is my situation.  I have a friend who got my xp system with a switchblade (dumps passwords & other misc data).  He said it will happen soon on linux because it automounts, but I got into a debate with him saying it doesn't run anything by default
[09:51] <magikid> tola: well, if you can get to a prompt with the live cd and can access your harddrive, /boot/grub/menu.lst is the grub boot list
[09:51] <Veejay> Anyone for the name of the package handling the ubuntu splash screen?
[09:51] <Dusk_> Jamesinator, i try to install ubuntu-desktop
[09:51] <Bill_> i just need to specify a mount point for linux, and i dont know what to do, I hear if you do partitions wrong it ban mess up one's whole system, and I want to get ubuntu running
[09:51] <jrib> squee_: tell him to show you then... but this is more for #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:51] <Dusk_> Jamesinator, but it has a compiz dependecy
[09:51] <squee_> jrib, alright
[09:52] <Dusk_> Jamesinator, so when it tries to install compiz it gives error
[09:52] <tola> magikid:  ok cool, how do I re-write these settings to the bootloader?
[09:52] <rambo3> Dusk_, 7.04?
[09:52] <Dusk_> Jamesinator, my opinion is compiz fusion and compiz files are errr..how can i say don't fit
[09:52] <Dusk_> rambo3, yes..feisty
[09:53] <darkskye> jrib, how do I download madwifi ?
[09:53] <rambo3> Dusk_, you have all repos enabled ?
[09:53] <kistmet> anyone want to recommend a decent dock like osx ( i know of cairo and kaiba)
[09:53] <Dusk_> rambo3, i added extra repo to install compiz fusion
[09:53] <Jamesinator> Dusk_: ubuntu-desktop depends on desktop-effects, desktop-effects depends on compiz, compiz depends on ubuntu-desktop? Sounds like you're screwed.
[09:53] <jrib> darkskye: idk, but the wiki should provide step by step instructions if you do need to download it
[09:53] <rambo3> Dusk_, #ubuntu-effects
[09:54] <magikid> tola: hmmm... I'm not sure what the exact problem is
[09:54] <magikid> tola: Error 21 means that grub can't find the harddrive
[09:54] <Sonicadvance1> Gah, I can't get the nvidia drivers working again
[09:54] <kistmet> Sonicadvance1, what vga ?
[09:54] <Veejay> :(
[09:54] <xeon> need help with home ubuntu to work ubuntu with ssh tunneling, configuring
[09:54] <Veejay> It's too busy
[09:54] <Sonicadvance1> what vga?
[09:55] <sx66> magikid: how do you fix the boot menu to show winxphome, I can see the disk on my desktop, but it is not in the menu for booting, it only boots into ubuntu
[09:55] <kistmet> Sonicadvance1, what card
[09:55] <tola> magikid: I think the problem is that Ubuntu studio wrote an invalid boot config to GRUB, I need to re-write the old one from /boot/grub
[09:55] <xeon> which file do I configure for the ssh tunneling?
[09:55] <demonspork> how do I set up a start up script on Ubuntu feisty??
[09:55] <magikid> tola: you should make sure that in your menu.lst file, that the different OSs are pointing to the correct partitions
[09:55] <Sonicadvance1> Geforce 7900 GS
[09:55] <Jamesinator> demonspork: System->Preferences->Sessions
[09:55] <Sonicadvance1> Installed Nvidia-GLX
[09:55] <Sonicadvance1> I have Xorg.conf set to nv
[09:55] <kistmet> demonspork, System -> Preferences -> Session
[09:56] <Sonicadvance1> if set to nvidia it doesn't work and can't find any screens
[09:56] <kistmet> Sonicadvance1, your using nvidia drivers?
[09:56] <demonspork> kistmet, jamesinator, no
[09:56] <Sonicadvance1> yes
[09:56] <magikid> tola: that could be it, in which case, open up /boot/grub/menu.lst in your fav editor and delete the Ubuntu Studio near the bottom
[09:56] <kistmet> demonspork, sorry ?
[09:56] <Jamesinator> demonspork: Excuse me?
[09:56] <demonspork> kistmet, jamesinator, I need it to run when the system boots, not on system login
[09:56] <kistmet> oh ok
[09:56] <kistmet> init.d would be place to play around with it
[09:56] <kistmet> i'd guess
[09:57] <Sonicadvance1> I had it working earlier but in beryl I tried making show the title bars but it didn't work out too well :P
[09:57] <demonspork> ok, someone else gave me the command I needed to use and forgot to tell me where to put it
[09:57] <tyn0r> hi, i've a little probleme on my server (www.kimsufi.com) i've installerd feisty, and by the hoster, and i've tried to install linux-image-server, but i've got an error : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28387/ . have you any idea ?
[09:57] <kistmet> Sonicadvance1, you've installed the nvidia drivers and removed the restricted modules?
[09:57] <Sonicadvance1> beh?
[09:57] <Sonicadvance1> no o_o
[09:57] <regimen> ATI dual head on single X800... No matter what I do they are always in mirror. Have fglrx working but ati control panel seems to do nothing... Added separate device/screen/server sections in xorg.conf. still mirrors. Any suggestions?
[09:57] <jgonzalez> hi there... I would like to change the default permissions for an automatically mounted USB flash drive from 755 to 700... I guess ubuntu uses a combination of udev/pmount to manage this, but I can't find the place where this is defined, anybody can help?
[09:57] <Jamesinator> !french | tyn0r
[09:58] <ubotu> tyn0r: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[09:58] <Sonicadvance1> where in my sentences did you get the idea that I removed the restricted modules?
[09:58] <tyn0r> i know ... but i try here ...
[09:58] <kistmet> Sonicadvance1, i am asking
[09:58] <Jamesinator> tyn0r: This is an english channel. We're NOT going to support problems you have with French ubuntu.
[09:58] <sx66> how do you fix the boot menu to show winxphome, I can see the disk on my desktop, but it is not in the menu for booting.
[09:58] <Jamesinator> tyn0r: Use #ubuntu-fr
[09:58] <Sonicadvance1> I see
[09:58] <Sonicadvance1> I didn't then
[09:58] <Dusk_> Jamesinator, i found the solution
[09:58] <Jamesinator> Dusk_: Really? Great! What was it?
[09:59] <tola> magikid: hmm, Ubuntu Studio has no entry, I bet the Ubuntu Studio installer has added grub to another hard disk and it's trying to boot off that
[09:59] <envi0us> hey
[09:59] <tyn0r> it's a kernel install probleme ... :p ... ans on ubuntu-fr nobody can answer ... (an urgent probleme)
[09:59] <magikid> sx66: you have to uncomment some lines in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:59] <kistmet> Sonicadvance1, you didn't what them?
[09:59] <brun0_> hi
[09:59] <kistmet> lol
[09:59] <magikid> tola: possible
[09:59] <Dusk_> Jamesinator, in the ubuntu community docs there's a compiz fusion guide
[09:59] <envi0us> i am trying to do, apt-get install ndisgtk and I am getting an error about .ca website
[09:59] <Jamesinator> tyn0r: You're not going to get any more of an answer here. Just see !patience and live with it.
[09:59] <tyn0r> please just see : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28387/
[09:59] <Sonicadvance1> I didn't remove them
[09:59] <bruenig> envi0us, change your mirror
[09:59] <Jamesinator> Dusk_: Ohh ok.
[09:59] <envi0us> how?
[09:59] <hendrixski> hey, silly question.... I've gone through this once before but I forgot.... I installed all the qt3 stuff... and then wrote a hello world and it can't find stuff when I run qmake -project, qmake, make
[09:59] <asdokasdofj> I followed the document on ubuntuforums.org to update my kernel (build from source) and now when I attempt to use the new kernel it gives me tons of errors such as "depmod: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6 cannot open shared object files: no such file or directory"   any ideas? I just followed the instructions to build some deb packages.....
[09:59] <Dusk_> Jamesinator, it says to add repos to /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:59] <Dusk_> Jamesinator, i removed these repos now
[10:00] <tola> magikid: If so, how on earth do I tell it to boot off my first hard disk like it shoudl be doing?
[10:00] <brun0_> I have a problem since update to gutsy :) : no Default Route is set and so I've no connection :/
[10:00] <tyn0r> :p Jamesinator thank ... else ...
[10:00] <Dusk_> Jamesinator, and it's ok
[10:00] <Jamesinator> Dusk_: Ah. Well sorry I led you on a wild goose chase then. :P Glad you got it set up.
[10:00] <bruenig> envi0us, sudo sed 's|//ca|//uk|g' -i /etc/apt/sources.list && sudo apt-get update
[10:00] <kistmet> Sonicadvance1, i suggest you do remove them and reinstall the drivers, remove nvidia-glx nvidia-settings nvidia-kernel-common. Then re-install the drivers
[10:00] <magikid> tola: I'm really not sure then
[10:00] <Dusk_> Jamesinator, thanks for your allllll help
[10:00] <magikid> tola: sorry I couldn't help more

[10:14] <tupa> is it possible to ssh from a far computer and control the same apps I'm seeing right now with this X session?
[10:14] <tupa> it would be something like having 2 keyboards and 2 mouses for the same session
[10:14] <liquiddoom> tupa: ssh x forwarding
[10:14] <PriceChild> tupa, I don't think you can "take control" of someone else's instance...
[10:14] <liquiddoom> tupa: hmm, that sounds more like synergy would work
[10:15] <PriceChild> ah yes synergy... good call...
[10:15] <PriceChild> but remember its not enctryped etc. so don't type passwords over it on public networks
[10:15] <Busata> what's the disease called when you kill your laptop's power supply from time to time?
[10:15] <bobdraken> dont see anyting

[10:16] <parkerphinney> i need some advice about filesystems and such.  My ubuntu installation wont boot because the partition is full, and my windows installation is all choppy cus its full of crap.  I plan on reformatting the windows partition and making it smaller to give more room to ubuntu.  Should I use a filesystem other than ntfs for my windows partition?  How do II re-install grub after the windows...
[10:16] <parkerphinney> ...re-installation?
[10:16] <Eric_Jardas> Hello.
[10:16] <Busata> !hi
[10:16] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[10:16] <Eric_Jardas> Can ayone tell me how can I get a lsit of all available packages I can install through apt-get ?
[10:17] <benmayim> Do they have ubuntu7.04 server fixed yet so it actually installs the LAMP server listed in option 2 of its install screen?
[10:17] <Flannel> Eric_Jardas: Do you want a literal list? or you want to browse through them?
[10:17] <Eric_Jardas> Flannel, literal
 Press space to select it and it will install
[10:17] <benmayim> liquiddoom, it didn't a couple of weeks ago, that's what I did.
[10:18] <xerophyte> is there any package which does the auto grammar check ??
[10:18] <Flannel> Eric_Jardas: apt-cache dump
[10:18] <tupa> liquiddoom, PriceChild I've read synergy's description, it seems that it merges several computers into one mouse and one keyboard, not several remote keyboards and mouses into one session :(
[10:18] <Eric_Jardas> Flannel, thank you
 I don't know... all I can think of is VNC
[10:19] <benmayim> Can anyone say that the LAMP server actually installs? It didn't last time I tried it, and someone said there was a bug in the installation disc. Is it fixed?
 Check your installCD
[10:20] <PriceChild> benmayim, its not too hard to use apt to install it off the cd even if it doesn't>?
[10:20] <kistmet> benmayim, you could also check out xampp :/
[10:20] <Flannel> benmayim: if it doesnt, you can always just install LAMP afterwards.  But I haven't tried it ersonally.  still on dapper.
[10:20] <CppIsWeird> is there a firewall that, like zonealarm, blocked based on per program access?
[10:20] <Flannel> kistmet: please don't recommend xampp.  It's not in the repos, and there's no need at all, to use it in Ubuntu.
[10:20] <PriceChild> CppIsWeird, firestarter?
[10:20] <kistmet> ok
[10:20] <dvs01> how do i share usb devices over the network with windows<->linux? i want usb devices that are on my linux machine to appear as if theyre actually connected to my windows machine. i can do this windows<->windows with a program called 'usb over network', but dont know of any cross-platform solutions
[10:21] <JarJarBinks> about ssh-chain www.porsbo.org/nix_ssh.php
[10:21] <kistmet> dvs01, just mount is as share using samba
[10:21] <benmayim> I don't know how to install anything in Linux unless it is listed in the add remove software, or synaptic software.
[10:21] <SAINTB> How do I go into Superuser?
 Awesome, thanks
[10:21] <magikid> SAINTB: use the sudo command
[10:21] <JarJarBinks> please private message me for feature requests and more likely bug reports :)
[10:21] <Flannel> benmayim: it is.  For the most part, this page walks you through it: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[10:21] <CppIsWeird> pricechild, firestarter doesnt do it based on program
[10:22] <PriceChild> CppIsWeird, What I do is block everything... then start an app and see what is being blocked and open it if i trust it
[10:22] <magikid> help mail
[10:22] <magikid> sorry
[10:23] <SAINTB> Damn I love this room.
[10:23] <parkerphinney> >	I'm gunna reformat my windows partition, should i consider formatting as fat32 instead of ntfs?
[10:23] <CppIsWeird> hmm... that might work, but if you open X port for X application, what stops Y app from using X port?
[10:23] <Flannel> parkerphinney: What are you reformatting for?  reinstalling windows? or just making a data partition? or what?
[10:23] <enviouz> PriceChild:  actually i think firestarter blocks 99% of everything as default
[10:24] <regimen> ATI dual head on a single card does nothing but mirror. I've set up xorg to have separate device and screen sections merged into a server section to no avail.  I can get sepratae vid cards to work and Xorg -scanpci shows 2 different heads on my X800, but still mirrors no matter what i do!!
[10:24] <enviouz> at least it did on my system
[10:24] <imbecile> hey guys, i  was curious if anybody knew the name of the cables to connect my laptop to my hdtv.. i think its "rgb pc" but im not sure
[10:24] <envi0us> hey
[10:24] <PriceChild> enviouz, ubuntu ships with no open ports by default... all outbound connections are ok though.
[10:24] <parkerphinney> flannel, reinstalling windows.  my linux partition ran out of space so it wont boot, and my windows partition is pokey so im gunna shrink down my windows partition and start over
[10:24] <PriceChild> parkerphinney, why don't you just delete a file or two off of ubuntu?
[10:24] <Flannel> parkerphinney: I don't believe windows will install on a FAT partition.
[10:25] <parkerphinney> XP will, i
[10:25] <parkerphinney> 'm quite sure
[10:25] <killor> hiya
[10:25] <parkerphinney> PriceChild, I just tried and it still didnt work, not sure why...
[10:26] <enviouz> i never really understood the logic behind not blocking anything as default. i mean i understand there are no deamons listening but that doesnt mean someone cant scan ya and break in
[10:26] <parkerphinney> PriceChild, I used the live CD to mount and delete files using sudo nautilus, i suppose its possible it wasnt actuall ymaking the changes it said it was
[10:26] <PriceChild> parkerphinney, did you chroot?
[10:26] <PriceChild> not chroot
[10:26] <PriceChild> argh i'm tired
[10:27] <PriceChild> parkerphinney, did you do this to the mounted drive?
[10:27] <PriceChild> not the live cd environment right?
[10:27] <parkerphinney> pricechild, yes
[10:27] <regimen> anybody w/ ati experience? getting a single card w/ dual heads to STOP mirroring!? I've spent over 200 hours googling it and cant find anything. maybe i just suck on google....
[10:27] <Flannel> parkerphinney: You should use gksu not sudo for nautilus.  But with a liveCD it's errors won't rear their heads.
[10:27] <parkerphinney> flannel, right, sorry, i did use gksudo, but the terminal did show a couple errors
[10:30] <ruben-> How can I get a newer version of openssh server (4.3 installed now) with apt-get?
[10:30] <xerophyte> anybody know any cool grammar check program for  Ubuntu ?
[10:30] <PriceChild> ruben-, what's wrong with the current one?
[10:30] <freddy__> on a new insatall I on a laptop  with resolution and newly installed nvidia graphics driver I still cannot get the right resolution ?
[10:30] <envi0us> Is there another way of installing my wifi card without ndiswrapper?
[10:30] <ruben-> PriceChild: Multiple ports don't work for me, don't know if it's the version..
[10:30] <zaggynl> freddy__, edit your xorg.conf file
[10:31] <freddy__> my xorg.conf have the following line:  "1200x800"      "1024x768"      "800x600"
[10:31] <parkerphinney> xerophyte, openoffice has a grammar check i believe
[10:31] <Peradox> Goodevening
[10:31] <freddy__> my driver is "Driver nvidia"
[10:31] <regimen> enviOus: you can try fwcutter, but i hear it doesnt work as well... I used a script that seems to be golden, if you want, i can email you the link
[10:31] <sdchargers21> trying to mount my windows drive and get the error: Cannot Mount Volume. Error org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.PermissionDeniedByPolicy.
[10:31] <ukubuntu> I seem to be unable to play ogg theora files in totem/mplayer whatever. it tries to load then just says stopped or closes the window if playin the file independantly.I have also tried loading the realplayer from helix and that does the same. Only other things I could think of is I have loaded Beryl before but this was off when playing the file, and I have loaded the restricted formats from add/remove
[10:31] <envi0us> regimen, that would be great. check your private message.
[10:32] <psygrass> if i installed Kubuntu after Ubuntu (fresh installation) do I need to restore grub menu or not?
[10:32] <ruben-> PriceChild: Any idea
[10:32] <ruben-> ?
[10:32] <xerophyte> parkerphinney, i could not find it
[10:32] <Peradox> I have a little question, can anyone give me a hint why my Ubuntu Server 7.0.4 does not recognize my Hyperthreading CPU ? He just shows 1 Cpu with all Ghz and not the other core
[10:32] <Flannel> ruben-: you should figure out if it's the version first
[10:32] <ruben-> Flannel: Well, how? :)
[10:32] <ruben-> Flannel: Can't find errorlog..
[10:33] <Flannel> ruben-: Find the openssh website, and check release notes to see which version multiports are introduced
[10:33] <enviouz> Peradox:  do you have the smp kernel? i think its needed ofr that
[10:34] <jgonzalez_> hi there, does anybody know how to change the default permissions for an USB flash drive? It seems that ubuntu doesn't use the default pmount options, but I don't know where that is changed
[10:34] <ruben-> Flannel: Can't find that :)
[10:34] <Giarc> I'm having trouble playing movies. TElls me No Input Plugin Found. I have installed gxine, xine and have Totem. Any Ideas. Anything I am missing?
[10:34] <Flannel> ruben-: http://www.openssh.com/
[10:34] <ruben-> Flannel: Yes, checked 4.3->4.6, no multiple ports in it
[10:34] <envi0us> regimen, did you get my private message?
[10:34] <HymnToLife> Giarc, what kind of movies ?
[10:34] <Peradox> Enviouz: Yes i have i did just install a new smp kernel and made a reboot then the kernel should automatically be enable. But also if i do uname -p i get Unknown
[10:35] <Giarc> just regualr DCDa
[10:35] <Giarc> DVDs
[10:35] <HymnToLife> !dvd | Giarc
[10:35] <ubotu> Giarc: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[10:35] <sdchargers21> Odd problem here and im stumped, several items found in the Applications and System menus (such as Synaptic package Manager and even Add/Remove Apps) are not there...Any ideas?
[10:35] <Giarc> ok thanks
[10:35] <HymnToLife> sdchargers21, define "not there"
[10:35] <enviouz> thats very odd that you get unknown
[10:36] <Pelo> afternoon folks
[10:36] <Peradox> enviouz: How do you mean ?
[10:36] <fisherwork> i'm having a hell of a time deleting a directory.. can someone give me some tips? the directory is /usr/lib/ICAClient
[10:36] <sdchargers21> Well say I click on System-Administration, everyone else seems to have the Synaptic Package manager under that menu..I do not
[10:36] <Flannel> ruben-: right.  I imagine multiple ports is allowed.  You could check your man page.
[10:37] <HymnToLife> Pelo, no
[10:37] <Pelo> fisherwork,  sudo rm -f /path
[10:37] <ruben-> Flannel: Well, starting a second ssh server doesn't work either..
[10:37] <Flannel> ruben-: multiple ports are allowed in my version (dapper), so they should be in yours as well.
[10:37] <SAINTB> Went through all that crap and the movie is too big for the disc.
[10:37] <enviouz> that you get unknown when doing uname
[10:37] <HymnToLife> un, yes in fact, there's the ISO9660 filesystem for CDs :p
[10:37] <HymnToLife> Linux can read NTFS natively, too
[10:37] <enviouz> not all distros but ubuntu fiesty can
[10:38] <ruben-> Flannel: I type the command, and no message, just new prompt.. :\
[10:38] <regimen> enviOus: It is sent.. Please read the email body!!
[10:38] <Peradox> enviouz: Does that meant that my system just dont recognize the CPU ? because if i do cat /proc/cpuinfo
[10:38] <Pelo> HymnToLife,  thanks,  I am' looking for a way to run  a single instance of utorrent from both OS on my dual boot,  I guess I'll have to settle for FAT32
[10:38] <lukeekblad> Hye guys, whats up?
[10:38] <Peradox> i get the info of it
[10:38] <fisherwork> Pelo: do I use a \ at the end of the dir name?  i.e. sudo rm -f /usr/lib/ICAClient\
[10:39] <Pelo> fisherwork,  no
[10:39] <HymnToLife> Pelo, run is different than read ;) I think you should go with FAT indeed
[10:39] <lukeekblad> dose anyone know how to make dvd work on ubuntu?
[10:39] <sdchargers21> Is there a place where I can have an experienced Ubuntu user give me just a few private minutes?? Im having trouble with several different things and after hours of Googling etc. I cannot seem to figure them out.
[10:39] <envi0us> regimen, did you get my prviate message?
[10:39] <fisherwork> ok cool thanks man
[10:39] <Jack_Sparrow> sdchargers21: what is the prob..
[10:39] <Jack_Sparrow> sdchargers21: SD here...
[10:39] <HymnToLife> sdchargers21, why not ask in here so everyonr can benefit ?
[10:39] <sdchargers21> Ok sounds great
[10:39] <sunnypies> yea i agree sdchargers21
[10:40] <kitche> lukeekblad: if it's movie dvd yo uneed libdvdcss2
[10:40] <lukaswayne9> How can I set a windows as my desktop with X
[10:40] <Pelo> HymnToLife, basicaly ,  since utorrent is self contained,  I'll be making a seperate partiton fat32 which will be use both to house ut and it's files and will serv to dl the files,  so which ever os I am in I can run ut and save the files as well
[10:40] <sdchargers21> First off, Synaptic Package Manager does not appear under System-Administration, as well as Add/Remove apps under Applications
[10:40] <Jack_Sparrow> sdchargers21: If you go off alone.. you may not get good info, this way others can agree or not
[10:40] <fisherwork> Pelo: i get an error "rm: cannont remove '/usr/lib/ICAClient': Is a directory"  any advice?
[10:40] <fisherwork> cannot*
[10:40] <bobdraken> ok i installed asterisk from synaptic
[10:40] <bobdraken> but .. its no tin the list of apps
[10:40] <bobdraken> how do i start it
[10:41] <Pelo> fisherwork,   sudo rm -f /usr/lib/ICAClient
[10:41] <Jack_Sparrow> fisherwork: you have been on that for awhile.. have you tried gksudo nautilus
[10:41] <SlimeyPete> open a terminal and type "asterisk" ?
[10:41] <Pelo> fisherwork,  or maybe -r
[10:41] <bobdraken> ok thanks ill try that
[10:41] <fisherwork> yes i typed that exactly
[10:41] <Flannel> bobdraken: asterisk is a server.  It's most lkely already started.  /etc/init.d/aserisk is probably the command, let me check.
[10:41] <fisherwork> i think the -d switch is for directories
[10:41] <fisherwork> that's what info rm says
[10:41] <bobdraken> does it have a gui
[10:41] <sdchargers21> When i right click and choose Edit Menu, i have the option of adding these items to the menus, but as soon as i check the boxes they uncheck themselves again
[10:41] <enviouz> Peradox: i would look at the system monitor once. and make sure both are listed. but if cat /proc/cpuinfo shows both then id think all would be ok but idk as ive never used a dual core or hyperthreading cpu
[10:41] <Flannel> bobdraken: `sudo /etc/init.d/asterisk restart`
[10:41] <Flannel> bobdraken: no, it's a server.  Why would it have a GUI?
[10:41] <kitche> bobdraken: not by itself but you can install a frontend to help you with it since it's a pbx
[10:41] <Jack_Sparrow> sdchargers21: what are you trying to add to the menus
[10:42] <bobdraken> is that recomended
[10:42] <bobdraken> kitche: should i do that.. innstall the gui
[10:42] <regimen> enviOus: did you get my file?
[10:42] <sdchargers21> Synaptic Package Manager and even the Add/Remove Apps options
[10:42] <Jack_Sparrow> sdchargers21: how did you install what you are trying to add to the menus
[10:42] <Sonicadvance1> there we are
[10:42] <lukeekblad> Kitche:   check ur private chat pleas

[10:44] <MajorPayne> !ask | slug
[10:44] <ubotu> slug: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:44] <envi0us> regimen, I can't download it because Hotmail's virus scanner can't verify that it's not a virus. Could you resend, but cahnge the file extension and I can change it back when I have it on my computer?
[10:44] <slug> what is unbuntu?
[10:44] <rugrat> !ubuntu | slug
[10:44] <ubotu> slug: Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com

[10:44] <bobdraken> Unable to open pid file '/var/run/asterisk/asterisk.pid': Permission denied
[10:44] <regimen> enviOus.. yes... it is a Bash script, not a virus... hold on
[10:44] <sdchargers21> Jack_Sparrow: yes is supposed to be, but for me it is not...Several options under these menus that people speak of are not appearing on mine
[10:45] <sipher> I have a script that needs to access users mozilla directories (as root obviously).. how can I do that without destroying permissions on the directory/files? Possible?
[10:45] <slug> is unbuntu better then debian?
[10:45] <Flannel> bobdraken: `sudo /etc/init.d/asterisk restart` will restart asterisk (whenever you change config stuff, you need to restart it)
[10:45] <mmcji> what command do i use to close my dvd drive from the command line?
[10:45] <rugrat> kitche, are you just guessing?  those packages do not exist
[10:45] <Flannel> sipher: sudo -u [username] 
[10:45] <Jack_Sparrow> sdchargers21: if it is not there then what cd did you ise to install
[10:45] <kitche> Sonicadvance1: emerald is a window theme deceartor which also handles the title bars and other things
[10:45] <slug> what is the oftc "rebellion" about?
[10:45] <Sonicadvance1> okay
[10:45] <Jack_Sparrow> sdchargers21: FYI Santee here
[10:45] <MajorPayne> slug: It's based of Debian.
[10:45] <Sonicadvance1> then I must not have started beryl correctly :P
[10:45] <gnychis> how do i generate a UUID for a disk?
[10:45] <bobdraken> Asterisk not yet configured. Edit /etc/default/asterisk first.
[10:45] <sipher> Flannel: doh.. can't believe it's that easy..
[10:45] <enviouz> Peradox: im not sure what the problem could be. did it work fine before updating the kernel?
[10:46] <sdchargers21> Jack_Sparrow: Ubuntu 7.04 i386
[10:46] <Flannel> sipher: er, just editing as root won't change the permissions
[10:46] <envi0us> regimen, I know it's not a virus, but hotmail's virus scanner won't let me download it because the scnaner thinks it's a virus.
[10:46] <kitche> rugrat: they do exist libgtk2.0-0
[10:46] <rugrat> How can I install Kvaser canlib
[10:46] <slug> What features make unbuntu worth choosing
[10:46] <Jack_Sparrow> sdchargers21: did you check the cd for errors before installing.

[10:46] <bobdraken> it said this
[10:46] <rugrat> kitche, ok that is working.  what about "Kvader canlib"  I need canlib.h
[10:46] <bobdraken> Asterisk not yet configured. Edit /etc/default/asterisk first.
[10:46] <W_McL> slug: great community
[10:46] <Flannel> sipher: Oh.  Reading wont touch their permissions/ownership either.
[10:46] <MajorPayne> slug: It has newer packages than Debian.
[10:46] <Peradox> enviouz: I dont know actually ^^ we did not use Hyperthreading yet on the system, but did activate it now in the bios ... only Ubuntu server does not recognize it good thats why we did update the kernel ... but problem didnt solve
[10:46] <lukeekblad> Ok, can someone pm me.  I need help with dvd playback
[10:47] <sdchargers21> I did not, but now that I think of it, I bet there was a problem with the install
[10:47] <rugrat> !dvd | lukeekblad
[10:47] <ubotu> lukeekblad: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs

[10:47] <psygrass> please i need some advice regarding this problem... I installed kubuntu (fresh installation) after using Ubuntu for a while... but now kubuntu doesn't restart or shutdown...instead it just hangs with black screen. Do I need to edit grub menu or what??
[10:47] <rugrat> slug, go search on google.
[10:47] <Flannel> lukeekblad: Ask your question in this channel.  No need to take it to a query.

[10:48] <enviouz> ok ic. i was thinking maybe the kernel was bugged which it may still be. can you do uname -r  and post the output
[10:48] <Sonicadvance1> downloaded Beryl manager
[10:48] <Sonicadvance1> :D
[10:48] <Flannel> slug: Ubuntu has config files that are geared to 'just work'.  With debian, you may need to tweak things to get them to work together, etc.  Ubuntu (in theory) is like that by default.  Simply installing the package gets it up and runnign
[10:48] <Flannel> slug: most clients do that automatically.  Which IRC client are you using?
[10:48] <slug> mIRC
[10:48] <Peradox> Enviouz: i get 2.6.20-16-server

[10:49] <Flannel> slug: mIRC has that feature built in, I believe. But, obviously, we don't support mIRC here.  You'll have to find some setup guide on the internet
[10:49] <MajorPayne> slug: You can get xchat for Windows.
[10:49] <mmcji> or even better, im looking for a url that show's me how.  I have been googling, and shifting through the ubuntu forums, but have not seen anything yet.  So the question is; How to close dvd drive tray from command line?
[10:49] <W_McL> slug: there is also an (unofficial) xchat version for windows

[10:49] <DShepherd> how do i set the sampling rate in ubuntu?
[10:49] <lukeekblad> what?

[10:50] <DShepherd> DShepherd, audio sampling rate that is.
[10:50] <Jack_Sparrow> mmcji: Will open toggle it closed?
[10:50] <envi0us> regimen, how many file are in the .zip?
[10:50] <lukeekblad> ok
[10:50] <mmcji> will try
[10:50] <envi0us> regimen, do you have a hotmail account?
[10:50] <heffo> Dsheperd, it depends on the software you use
[10:50] <envi0us> regimen, maybe i can added you to my friends list?

[10:51] <Jack_Sparrow> sdchargers21: You still here, or are you checking the md5 on that cd
[10:51] <magnetron> lukeekblad: ubotu sent you a message about the dvd:s, containing a link. read it.
[10:51] <DShepherd> heffo, so there's no way to change the audio sampling rate globally?

[10:51] <sindre> need some help: how do i find out what librarys i need for an install?...

[10:51] <llllllll> Can somebody point me to a how-to that will explain how to move all my /home stuff to a separate partition and then have that partition as my /home/ one?
[10:52] <lukeekblad> i tryed
[10:52] <heffo> Dsheperd, theres nothing that globally controls the music, a player will use the sampling rate that is set in the the file itself so an audio editor must be used
[10:52] <heffo> dsheperd, like audacity for example
[10:52] <Jack_Sparrow> |||||||  change your nick so we can msg you
[10:52] <DShepherd> heffo, ok thanks for that info.. i appreciate

[10:53] <envi0us> regimen, thanks.
[10:53] <heffo> dsheperd, no problem, think audacity is in the repositories so should install with "sudo apt-get install audacity" without the quotes
[10:53] <Flannel> DShepherd: er.  Sorry.  No idea why I highlighted you.  Meant Jack_Sparrow.
[10:53] <DShepherd> Flannel, ok kool

[10:54] <DShepherd> heffo, well I was trying to change the audio sampling rate because 'Frets on Fire', the game, sounds weird sometimes.. and they suggested that as on of the solutions..
[10:54] <Flannel> demonspork: system startup? or user login?
[10:54] <jaro> Help guys .. ahh. I started my system a couple of minutes ago, and there was a problem with the X-Server. I changed back to the old driver, so i can come here. What might be wrong ? It worked a couple of hours before perfectly well.. :(

[10:55] <lukeekblad> its dosent hilight them

[10:55] <lukeekblad> um
[10:55] <enviouz> according to the info i fine hyperthreading is disabled in the newer kernel packages
[10:55] <heffo> dsheperd, sorry its the audiofiles themselves that set the sample rate unless the program that plays them has a built in function to override that
[10:55] <lukeekblad> client?
[10:55] <lukeekblad> Errr
[10:55] <regimen> enviOus: run ./ndiswrapper_setup in a command line... again, this is specifically for broadcom drivers and may not work w/ other hardware.. I did not write the script!

[10:59] <W_McL> fsckr: pidgin is gaim (they had to change their name cause of legal issues with AOL)
[10:59] <raschko> what he said
[10:59] <redheat> there's just the problem of screen resolution if anyone can just walk me throw it I'll appreciate it
[10:59] <heffo> zack, if they have fixed the bug and put it in the new source, otherwise theres no real way of doing it expcept getting the source and changing it yourself i dont think

[10:59] <DShepherd> enviouz, yeah... but ts not supported here.. :-)
[10:59] <Jack_Sparrow> !envy
[10:59] <ubotu> 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!

[11:01] <jrib> Lizard_: use system -> preferences -> themes
[11:01] <DaveTarmac> hey folks. I might have made a small mistake. Is there any way of getting the bottom panel back in Feisty?
[11:01] <Flannel> lukeekblad: most people don't use GAIm, because it's a crappy IRC experience.  Which is why I suggested xchat-gnome

[11:02] <raschko> restart your x server a few times and that should fixe the res error
[11:02] <raschko> did for me
[11:02] <Lizard_> but i use xubuntu and i have xfce and i don't have this option
[11:03] <Peradox> Enviouz: Hmm you said Hyperthreadind is disable but if i use an smp hmm that should normaly always accept Hyperthreading / dual core ore i am wrong ?
[11:03] <heffo> redheat, when you try and change resolution is that the only option?
[11:03] <redheat> my video card is XFX 8600 GT, and I have installed the drivers for it using both ways, tseliot and nvidia's way and reached the same result can not change resolution
[11:03] <Lizard_> then what i can do with that
[11:03] <MajorPayne> lukeekblad: I doubt very many people here use Gaim as an IRC client so no one will be able to help you set it up.
[11:03] <Lizard_> ?
[11:03] <Jack_Sparrow> system preferences screen resolution
[11:03] <heffo> zack, sorry if its not in the default package for that file yet i dont know what you can do
[11:03] <_feh_> I am having problems with a fresh install: when I go to manually edit partition tables, I get an error at first that my 2nd hard drive was not cleanly unmounted, then I ran e2fsck on it and it found no errors, now when i go to the step after , get an error that says i have an incompatible option selected but it does not say what
[11:03] <_feh_> anyone have any ideas?
[11:03] <enviouz> that is true Peradox but hyperthreading itself has been disabled which differs from dual core
[11:03] <DaveTarmac> nevermind - figured it
[11:03] <redheat> I go through nvidia setting from the application menu and try to change resolution and the only thing I get is 640x480
[11:03] <raschko> gaim-accounts-add edit
[11:03] <heffo> redheat, when i started using ubuntu i had the same problems
[11:03] <redheat> ok
[11:03] <Jack_Sparrow> lukeekblad: it wasnt had, I did it and found it lacking and went to a different one
[11:04] <Peradox> Envouz: ok thank you then i wil do a little more research about that
[11:04] <heffo> redheat, youl have to edit the actual file to add in new resolutions
[11:04] <redheat> how did you get rid of it?
[11:04] <Zack> Heffo: if it says they have fixed it does that mean it will be in the next package update availible that happens every week or so?
[11:04] <enviouz> i mean it may have been reinabled by now but all the info i find (all old) indecates its disabled)
[11:04] <jrib> Lizard_: try #xubuntu if no one here knows
[11:04] <heffo> zack, yeah it should be fixed shortly
[11:04] <Jack_Sparrow> redheat did you try      system preferences screen resolution
[11:04] <redheat> the resolutions are already there, and the computer recognizes my monitor correctly, with all its possible depths
[11:04] <_feh_> can anyone help me with installing/manually editing partitions?
[11:04] <redheat> yes
[11:04] <enviouz> http://www.daemonology.net/hyperthreading-considered-harmful/
[11:04] <redheat> hi Jack

[11:04] <Peradox> ok thank you for your time i will take a look at the link
[11:04] <redheat> sorry for bugging you again..
[11:04] <heffo> redheat, give me a second iv forgotten where the xorg.conf file is :P
[11:05] <Lizard_> ok i search answer there
[11:05] <xst> After upgrading to feisty my .Xdefaults-file and .Xresources-file is no longer read upon login. Any ideas why? And how can I make ubuntu read it upon login?
[11:05] <MajorPayne> heffo: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:05] <redheat> no problem nano -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf

[11:05] <iphv37> _feh_: what's ur problem?
[11:05] <redheat> thank you Major
[11:05] <heffo> majorpayne, thanks couldnt remember if it was /etc or w.e
[11:05] <redheat> by the way guys, the two ways if followed correctly led to the same result
[11:06] <heffo> redheat, in a terminal type "sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorf.conf" without quotes
[11:06] <redheat> either tseliot's way or Nvidia's way
[11:06] <_feh_> iphv37: when i manually edit partitions, i get an error that the 2nd hd was not unmounted cleanly
[11:06] <redheat> roger
[11:06] <servlsuser> hello
[11:06] <raschko> anyone here know a good custom panel menu?
[11:06] <heffo> redheat scroll down till you see a part with rresolutions
[11:06] <_feh_> iphv37:  then the 2nd time i tried said that i had an incompatible option set for some reason
[11:06] <heffo> redheat they look like Modes      "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
[11:06] <_feh_> but i have all filesystems set to ext2 with the exception of swap, i don't get it
[11:07] <redheat> ok the xorg.conf is open
[11:07] <gnychis> whats the proper way to install libdvdcss in Feisty Fawn?
[11:07] <Jack_Sparrow> heffo: I know you meant etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:07] <redheat> what should I write?

[11:08] <redheat> yes
[11:08] <heffo> redheat its near the bottom of the file
[11:08] <TWIZTED> an anybody help me with an installation problem
[11:08] <redheat> yes I do
[11:08] <Zack> TWIZTED: Elaborate
[11:08] <redheat> please continue I'm following you closely
[11:08] <heffo> redheat, okat in the section that says "depth 24" on the line below add in the new resolution you need
[11:08] <MajorPayne> !ask | TWIZTED

[11:08] <regimen> How do I separate the 2 heads on my ATI card from being mirrored!? they are listed as separate in Xorg -scanpci and I set up my xorg.conf file accordingly, but to no avail. fglrx works flawlessly (after some coaxing). 2 separate cards do just fine. but the 2 monitors on the one card mirror no matter what.
[11:08] <heffo> redheat, that worked for me but i had to restart X when i did that
[11:08] <redheat> they are already there.. the native resolution is already written
[11:09] <Carlinhos_Mad25> I need to record skype conversations. any idea?
[11:09] <redheat> and even the depth is ok
[11:09] <iphv37> _feh_, sorry but i don't get it too!
[11:09] <redheat> but the screen won't change to that resolution
[11:09] <Jack_Sparrow> regimen: twinview?
[11:09] <_feh_> s'ok
[11:09] <heffo> redheat, have you got the latest drivers for your graphics card?
[11:09] <redheat> yes..
[11:09] <Jack_Sparrow> redheat: How did you install those drivers?
[11:09] <Zack> TWIZTED: Whats your question about?

[11:09] <redheat> envy installed the latest driver
[11:10] <redheat> yes Twizted
[11:10] <bjames> hi all - I know I'm in the wrong place, but this is normally a good place for answers - which channel should I use for windows command line questions??
[11:10] <TWIZTED> i downed the live cd iso of ubuntu v7.04
[11:10] <Flannel> bjames: ##windows
[11:10] <Jack_Sparrow> redheat: That was the start of your problem
[11:10] <TWIZTED> and i want to install it as dual boot with win
[11:10] <redheat> Jack, I tried the Nvidia way, and it led me to the same road
[11:10] <redheat> the same exact problem happened after I followed Nvidia
[11:11] <TWIZTED> but i can`t come past 44% of the installation

[11:11] <Lizard_> ehh
[11:11] <Agiofws> hello
[11:11] <Jack_Sparrow> TWIZTED: did you have the cd check itself for errors
[11:11] <regimen> Out of desparation, i'll just keep posting this. Hoping that some one signs on w/ the answer. I've googled a googleplex time and still no answer. How do I separate the 2 heads on my ATI card from being mirrored!? they are listed as separate in Xorg -scanpci and I set up my xorg.conf file accordingly, but to no avail. fglrx works flawlessly (after some coaxing). 2 separate cards do just fine. but the 2 monitors on the one card m

[11:11] <Agiofws> hat  f buttons do i press so ubuntu can load witha special kernel ?
[11:11] <Zack> TWIZTED: 44%.... Well did you have the cd checked for errors?
[11:11] <TWIZTED> yep did that
[11:12] <Agiofws> hat  f buttons do i press so ubuntu can  instaLL with a special kernel ?
[11:12] <heffo> TWIZTED, which section of the install is that?
[11:12] <Zack> TWIZTED: so you have partitioned your HDD already or havent you?
[11:12] <regimen> ubotu: i've tried xinerama... even in debian they want to mirror.
[11:12] <ci_omegadog> anyone use lighttpd on ubuntu?  is it pretty solid?
[11:12] <TWIZTED> i had but now i installed win again
[11:12] <TWIZTED> and yes again it ispartitioned
[11:13] <redheat> guys, I even did this, when log in the default depth comes to be 24, while my card supports up to 32 so I changed the native depth to 16 hoping that the card would see that change but to no avail..
[11:13] <redheat> the resolution stayed around 640x480
[11:13] <regimen> redheat: just note: 32 bit is 24-bit w/ extensions
[11:13] <Anlar> redheat: fyi, though cards do 32-bit, the monitors can do in reality only 24-bit colors
[11:13] <Zack> TWIZTED: Are you running the live cd right now but Win is oh your HDD?
[11:13] <Jack_Sparrow> redheat: Once you use envy you are out of luck... Consider a fresh install
[11:14] <redheat> wow..thanks for the info didn't knwo that
[11:14] <Anlar> redheat: it's cheaper that way :)
[11:14] <Zack> on*
[11:14] <redheat> I know, so guys I can do a fresh install in a second..
[11:14] <JDStone> how do I set NTP to run regularly?
[11:14] <TWIZTED> i have 1 partition of 10gb for win one of 10gb for ubuntu and the other two are unused at the moment all are formatted to ntfs
[11:14] <redheat> do you want me to download the nvidia drivers from nvidia on my own..
[11:14] <redheat> ok I can do that..
[11:14] <TWIZTED> no not right now
[11:15] <fujin> use ntpd
[11:15] <Jack_Sparrow> redheat: Nvidia are usually not a problem, that is all I use
[11:15] <kitche> JDStone: umm use ntpd if you want it to run regularly
[11:15] <Flannel> Jack_Sparrow: ntpd: https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/server/C/NTP.html
[11:15] <kitche> Flannel: tab got you :)
[11:15] <redheat> Jack, what scares me are the repositories that I have to install and unistall
[11:15] <TWIZTED> this is my first time ever wyh linux
[11:15] <Flannel> Oh.  JDStone
[11:15] <DaveTarmac> Is there anyway to get the bottom panel recognised on all four desktops? When I switch, there is no panel anymore
[11:15] <redheat> the last time I installed the .bin drivers from Nvidia, the restricted manager didn't work at all..
[11:16] <steve8track> TWIZTED: you said that you have them all formatted NTSF?
[11:16] <Jack_Sparrow> redheat: THe instructions are very straight forward...
[11:16] <Zack> TWIZTED: it should work... does it tell you what it is working on at the 44% mark?
[11:16] <redheat> and it popped a message telling me I need to install a universal restricted
[11:16] <JDStone> thanks
[11:16] <TWIZTED> zack i am not in the live cd right now
[11:16] <JDStone> doh!
[11:16] <_feh_> are there any poweruser/super linux guru's around to guide a lost sheep back home?
[11:16] <Jack_Sparrow> redheat: If you go for bleeding edge, expect to bleed.
[11:16] <TWIZTED> it just says copying files
[11:16] <redheat> I know
[11:16] <Flannel> !anyone | _feh_
[11:16] <ubotu> _feh_: 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?
[11:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Flannel: Did you link that for me?
[11:17] <TWIZTED> and at 44% it hangs
[11:17] <_feh_> Flannel: I have asked several times..
[11:17] <Flannel> Jack_Sparrow: no.  For JDStone.  I'm having tab complete problems today.  PEBKAC.
[11:17] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[11:17] <_feh_> seems nobody can touch my question
[11:17] <Flannel> _feh_: this is during install? which disk?
[11:17] <Jack_Sparrow> _feh_: Dont see any question
[11:17] <_feh_> Jack_Sparrow:  scroll wayyy up
[11:18] <_feh_> i'll ask again
[11:18] <Agiofws> what  f buttons do i press so ubuntu can  instaLL with a special kernel ?
[11:18] <senesence> How can I remove the NetworkManager from the panel?
[11:18] <ci_omegadog> anyone use lighttpd on ubuntu? is it pretty solid?
[11:18] <redheat> so should just follow everything written here: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=67aa2f4cafce050a5273b78e3d3a048a&t=72490

[11:19] <Slart> Hi, I've recently changed my motherboard (similar model, just a bit newer). Is there anything I should do to make my ubuntu installation "redetect" my new hardware?
[11:19] <TWIZTED> zack is it possible that it is burned on a to fast speed
[11:19] <_feh_> here's my problem: I am trying to complete a fresh install. I have two hd's both ext2, when I went to format the first time, got an error out of hd 2 stating it did not unmount cleanly, then ran e2fsck - no errors, when i tried to do the install again, got an error that I had an incompatible error - no error stated or specified
[11:19] <redheat> ubuto, this is what I'm talking about all roles get broken when it comes to the new breed of cards with their new breed of beta drivers
[11:19] <Jack_Sparrow> TWIZTED: YEs...
[11:19] <ProN00b> does anyone know a more complete hardware compatibility list for motherboards than the ubuntu.com wiki ?
[11:19] <Flannel> _feh_: which install disk?
[11:19] <_feh_> feisty
[11:19] <_feh_> live cd
[11:19] <Marfi> _feh_, did you delete all the partitions on the disk?
[11:20] <filthpig> chees! Netsplit <3
[11:20] <redheat> the 8th series..is a killer when it comes to installing the drivers..
[11:20] <Marfi> netsplit ftw!
[11:20] <_feh_> Marfi: no, hd 2 was newly reformatted and has data on it i need to save
[11:20] <MajorPayne> It's good to be together again.

[11:21] <Zack> OK TWIZTED ARE YOU THERE?
[11:21] <TWIZTED> but if it is burned to fast why is the live cd working good in live mode and the rest of the installation procedure until the 44%
[11:21] <ImLukeEkblad> sorry
[11:21] <ImLukeEkblad> Just wondering
[11:21] <ImLukeEkblad> Sory
[11:22] <DaveTarmac> anyway - as I was asking about Panels - is there a way to have the bottom panel fixed across each desktop?
[11:22] <arjen_ubu> one of my ports is constantly being probed
[11:22] <ImLukeEkblad> Ubuntu rocks
[11:22] <Marfi> _feh_, try to do a format of the first disk. if it doesn't format, i know it will kick back funky errors like that
[11:22] <Senesence> blah
[11:22] <TWIZTED> yeah i am here but not in the live cd
[11:22] <Jack_Sparrow> TWIZTED:  Mine went into a loop on install although live worked fine
[11:22] <_feh_> Marfi: just ran gparted on it, to make it ext2, no errors
[11:22] <astomper> if the fbi gets ahold of my computer, and can't crack my password, will they be able to access information on my harddirve?
[11:22] <TWIZTED> i dont think it is burned to fast as i can recall it 2X burned
[11:23] <redheat> WOW.. thank you ubuto, Jack, Regimen and Anlar for all your help
[11:23] <redheat> its an official problem
[11:23] <Marfi> astomper, yes
[11:23] <arjen_ubu> firestarter blocks the ports tho
[11:23] <ImLukeEkblad> Whats ubuntu doing for the 4th?
[11:23] <ImLukeEkblad> :)
[11:23] <Zack> TWIZTED: burning speed shouldnt have anything to do with it.... i wouldnt think
[11:23] <ImLukeEkblad> anyone know?
[11:23] <ImLukeEkblad> Like, are they gana releas somthing nerdy or somthing?
[11:23] <Jack_Sparrow> TWIZTED:  2x should be plenty slow enough
[11:23] <Marfi> astomper, a person with basic computer knowledge can get around it
[11:23] <TWIZTED> then what is
[11:23] <Zack> did the server go out again?

[11:26] <Jack_Sparrow> TWIZTED: Nope, I have had that problem even with the CD's they send out.  I took it, live was fine,  I created ISO from it and reburned it slower and the problem went away
[11:26] <verb3k_> redheat,  Hi redheat , did your video card work ?
[11:26] <d4rkmonkey> :D
[11:26] <Zack> TWIZTED: It sounds like it is running into an error with hardware. if its missing something then the software will simply not know what to do.
[11:26] <revears> jour
[11:26] <TWIZTED> but i burned it at @X
[11:26] <lozzy> Marfi: So, why, if I install the drivers manually out of X using the installer provided by, say, nvidia, is restarting X sufficient?
[11:26] <filthpig> SanityInAnarchy: ah, yeah I have a wmaster0 o0

[11:27] <r0bby> Hey, Anybody have an Inspiron 6000 where the sound card isn't detected?
[11:27] <Zack> Jack_Sparrow: good idea,
[11:27] <ImLukeEkblad> I have beryl, and whenever its on, when i try to open a new window, the new window opens behind the windows i'm alredy using.   Somebody helpppp
[11:27] <TWIZTED> now i do yes but not with the instal at least not with the power on
[11:27] <demonspork> orbisvicis, it depends
[11:27] <orbisvicis> b/c when i start totem/kaffeine, I still see 'searching for css key, ie" but i dont know if it exists
[11:27] <arjen_ubu> hey people i just installed firestarter but the port i opened in my hardware router keeps getting probed by lots of people (its for utorrent) but it isnt running
[11:27] <orbisvicis> nothing like "found key"
[11:27] <demonspork> TWIZTED, open up the Beryl Manager
[11:27] <r0bby> :/
[11:27] <r0bby> :(
[11:27] <orbisvicis> demonspork, depends on what ?
[11:27] <Zack> TWIZTED: it may be finding an external drive like Ipod flash drive ect. and not know what to do
[11:27] <TWIZTED> the what
[11:27] <Marfi> lozzy, becuase when you install the restricted modules, (to my understanding) you change part of the kernel. kernel changes require system reboot
[11:27] <Iesos> Anyone know how one can change volume from the commandline?
[11:28] <redheat> hey verb3k..
[11:28] <TWIZTED> i am a n00b guys
[11:28] <Jack_Sparrow> arjen_ubu: You have to tell it to run on power up
[11:28] <ovnicraft> anyone can help me
[11:28] <redheat> no still it hasn't but I'm reading the binary and package help on ubuntu at the moment..
[11:28] <ImLukeEkblad> someone help plz
[11:28] <SanityInAnarchy> Iesos:  there's alsamixer, but that's just a terminal, not cmdline
[11:28] <Marfi> lozzy, when you install nvidia drivers, on the other hand, they aren't added through the kernel
[11:28] <verb3k_> redheat,  did it work?
[11:28] <ImLukeEkblad> Helo
[11:28] <demonspork> orbisvicis, if you are making a mirror image of the dvd or ripping the dvd
[11:28] <arjen_ubu> Jack_Sparrow: not quite sure what you mean
[11:28] <Jack_Sparrow> arjen_ubu: The firewall iptables are still there.. you just dont have the firewall manager running
[11:28] <verb3k_> redheat,  I see
[11:28] <redheat> hey guys did you know we can disable the run level from within /etc
[11:28] <redheat> ?
[11:28] <lozzy> Ah. So what's the advantage of adding them to the kernel?
[11:28] <demonspork> TWIZTED, are you there
[11:28] <Zack> TWIZTED: make sure you disconnect all external drives, cameras, anything that is not essential
[11:29] <TWIZTED> yeah i am here
[11:29] <godlygeek> so, any suggestion about how to begin troubleshooting a backlight that turns itself back on sometimes?
[11:29] <envi0us> how do i install kernel headers?
[11:29] <arjen_ubu> Jack_Sparrow: yes I know, but in case of any serious attacks do i get notified then?
[11:29] <SanityInAnarchy> Iesos: aha -- man amixer
[11:29] <lozzy> Forgive me if I'm asking a stupid question Marfi, I've just never had to do it in my past experience of using Linux
[11:29] <TWIZTED> ok but what about a mouse
[11:29] <filthpig> SanityInAnarchy: any ideas about teh wmaster0 I have?
[11:29] <demonspork> TWIZTED, in General Options, in the Main tab, the 6th option down is "focus stealing prevention", it is probably set to high on your system
[11:29] <ImLukeEkblad> Ok, i'm gana say this one more time,  and I need help.   I have beryl, and whenever its on, when i try to open a new window, the new window opens behind the windows i'm alredy using.       <<<<<<<   That person needs help.  Help him.    <<<<<<
[11:29] <Zack> TWIZTED: keep it, keyboard, monitor, anything essential
[11:29] <Marfi> lozzy, if you add them to the kernel, they can be easily removed and modified. if you add them JUST as the driver, whenever a kernel update comes out...your screwed, since the drivers are for the past drivers
[11:29] <Jack_Sparrow> arjen_ubu: I have never gotten a notice, I do use firestarter
[11:30] <demonspork> woops, TWIZTEd, I got the wrong person
[11:30] <Zack> TWIZTED but id say even disconnect printers
[11:30] <orbisvicis> demonspork, i am not ripping it: sometimes in lxdvdrip I make a mirror image dvd9 -> 2 dvd5, and sometimes I use vamps_menu to keep the original menus, but I think (not sure) that in either case the vobs are demultiplexed/remultiplexed
[11:30] <SanityInAnarchy> filthpig: not really. I'm about the same level as you, either my wireless works or I ask IRC :(
[11:30] <TWIZTED> ok
[11:30] <TWIZTED> ok
[11:30] <demonspork> IMLikeekblad, open up the Beryl Manager
[11:30] <filthpig> heh, alright
[11:30] <ImLukeEkblad> Ok
[11:30] <ImLukeEkblad> thanks
[11:30] <orbisvicis> demonspork, not sure if that removes css protection
[11:30] <TWIZTED> we`ll have none here at the moment so
[11:30] <musselm> Does anyone know where to find archives of packages for Breezy?
[11:30] <envi0us> how do i install kernel headers?
[11:30] <orbisvicis> demonspork, is there a way to find out for sure
[11:30] <ImLukeEkblad> ok
[11:30] <demonspork> I don't know
[11:30] <_feh_> The test of the file system with type ext2 in partition #1 of SCSI1 (0,1,0) (sdb) found uncorrected errors.
[11:30] <_feh_> If you do not go back to the partitioning menu and correct these errors, the partition will be used as is.
[11:31] <demonspork> try to play it without a css library
[11:31] <_feh_> :(
[11:31] <arjen_ubu> Jack_Sparrow: I'm guessing people are trying to get a torrent, but the strange thing is that I run utorrent on Win XP and I'm running Ubu now. Plus the fact that I don't currently have any torrents shared
[11:31] <Zack> TWIZTED: 44% may be at the point of recognizing hardware. If you have an old printer hooked up or something it may stop the install trying to find a driver
[11:31] <lozzy> okay, many thanks. :)
[11:31] <michael_the_choi> what would make me iwconfig be resetting to nothing ever time I reboot? That is, everytime I boot, I have to respecifiy my essid and enc to get reconnected wirelessly.
[11:31] <envi0us> Hey, how do i install kernel headers?
[11:31] <demonspork> ImLukeEkblad, in General Options, in the Main tab, the 6th option down is "focus stealing prevention", it is probably set to high on your system
[11:31] <ImLukeEkblad> demonspork:   What
[11:31] <Zack> TO ALL: Who in here knows the ubuntu install program well??
[11:31] <Lizard_> Jack_Sparrow: maybe this link help you http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Fawn?content=58426 . This is page where i find my gtk theme.
[11:31] <arjen_ubu> Jack_Sparrow: could it be that seed/peer info is stored on their clients?
[11:31] <TWIZTED> even when it says copying files Zack
[11:31] <_feh_> anyone have any ideas how to fix that?
[11:31] <Jack_Sparrow> arjen_ubu: I dont do p2p
[11:32] <demonspork> ImLukeEkblad, to fix your problem, follow those instructions in the Beryl Settings manager
[11:32] <TWIZTED> what about the lan/internet
[11:32] <_feh_> Marfi: did you see that error?
[11:32] <orbisvicis> demonspork, is the region code also part of css ... ie the dvd has no css but wont play in another continent anyway ?
[11:32] <bkudria> i have an edgy lattop, which i upgraded to fiesty.  on reboot, it fails to boot, and stop with "EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode.".  what can be wrong?
[11:32] <Marfi> envi0us, linux-headers-xxx in synaptic
[11:32] <Marfi> _feh_, negative, ill scroll up

[11:32] <DishBreak> define well?
[11:32] <_feh_> rgr
[11:32] <ImLukeEkblad> demonspork: what should i set it 2?
[11:33] <arjen_ubu> "Hit from x.x.x.x detected"
[11:33] <arjen_ubu> like every 2 minutes
[11:33] <TWIZTED> huh
[11:33] <Zack> TWIZTED: yes leave internet connections
[11:33] <demonspork> ImLukeEkblad, whatever setting seems to work for you, I use the "low" setting
[11:33] <Marfi> _feh_, are they scsi drives?
[11:33] <arjen_ubu> Jack_Sparrow: I'll block the port on my virtual server.
[11:33] <TWIZTED> in or out
[11:33] <_feh_> yes
[11:33] <Lizard_> Jack_Sparrow: i know, but i have a problem and this is link where i find theme. Do you remember?

[11:37] <filthpig> brb..

[11:38] <tek-ops> hello all
[11:38] <Zack> ok
[11:38] <RealNitro> quinton_: where did you get the theme?
[11:38] <TWIZTED> laters and thnx upfront
[11:38] <tozcat> hi...
[11:38] <quinton_> realnitro, deviantart
[11:38] <tek-ops> I just pulled the root drive from one server and put it in an identical system
[11:38] <Zack> TWIZTED: see you in a few
[11:38] <TWIZTED> oh but hey how do i get it to dual boot later on
[11:38] <be1> hey guys I am trying to compile a c program with a default ubuntu (through Matlab) do I need the ddevelopment package of GCC?
[11:39] <Jack_Sparrow> ciacon: there is a menu option where you login to select wm's
[11:39] <RealNitro> quinton_: have you tried redownloading it (just to be sure the downloading didn't corrupt it)
[11:39] <tek-ops> they both have the same three NICs in them, however on the second machine the eth0, eth1, and eth2  come up as eth3, eth4, and eth5
[11:39] <quinton_> realnitro, yes
[11:39] <tek-ops> is this due to differing MAC addresses?
[11:39] <Sonicadvance1> Everything is such a pain for some reason!
[11:39] <Sonicadvance1> >_<
[11:39] <quinton_> realnitro, it always says .tar.gz is not a supported file...
[11:39] <Zack> TWIZTED: I that has to do with the partitioning of the hard drive. I am not quit sure on how to accomplish that but I do know for windows to run on the Drive at all it needs to be at the begining of the HDD, The first boot files if you will
[11:39] <RealNitro> quinton_: can you give me a link to that skin?
[11:40] <JackC> hi guys i install vnc4server, and when i login to the client, all i get is a white screen, no GDM login, any ideas what could cause this?
[11:40] <Lizard_> Jack_sparrow: i know
[11:40] <quinton_> realnitro, yes give me a second to gather the link
[11:40] <TWIZTED> ok
[11:40] <ciacon> Jack_Sparrow: I was thinking of having two simultanious sessions..
[11:40] <Lizard_> Jack_Sparrow: thank you, bye

[11:40] <JDStone> how do I set up a Ubuntu NTP server
[11:40] <JDStone> I have ntp-server installed
[11:40] <Zack> TWIZTED: i will look around for info while you boot into the live CD
[11:40] <Jack_Sparrow> Lizard_: SO it isnt a Ubuntu problem, it is a problem with that particular theme
[11:40] <JDStone> and it sychronizes fine, but clients won't sync
[11:40] <TWIZTED> so do i have to adjest the sector for the linux partition then or what
[11:40] <Marfi> _feh_, found something that may be of some assistance. try to install scsiadd and scsitools from synaptic, and then try to reinstall
[11:41] <TWIZTED> ok thanks zack
[11:41] <Marfi> _feh_, found something that may be of some assistance. try to install scsiadd and scsitools from synaptic, and then try to reinstall

[11:41] <iskin> Can anyone suggest an application to repair MP3s?
[11:41] <Jack_Sparrow> People, play nice...  See you all later...
[11:42] <Zack> TO ALL: hey does anyone in here know anything about Dual Boot with windows?
[11:42] <be1> hey guys I am trying to compile a c program with a default ubuntu (through Matlab) do I need the ddevelopment package of GCC?
[11:42] <_feh_> Marfi: wait unsure if they are scsi..
[11:42] <musselm2> Zack:  What's the Q
[11:42] <_feh_> Marfi: whats a quick way to check
[11:43] <_feh_> they might be ide
[11:43] <ronzo_> _feh_, go through synaptic and see if its installed
[11:43] <bkudria> i have an edgy lattop, which i upgraded to fiesty.  on reboot, it fails to boot, and stop with "EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode.".  what can be wrong?
[11:43] <_feh_> no if it is scsi or ide
[11:43] <bkudria> laptop*, i mean
[11:43] <quinton_> realnitro, or
[11:43] <_feh_> ronzo_:  nothing is installed on live cd
[11:43] <Zack> musselm2: i am helping TWIZTED, he has been trying to install Ubuntu but he would like to have Windows on the same HDD. He has partioned the drive and has Windows installed.
[11:43] <pi3> why are the sounds in /usr/share/sounds (the default system sounds) in a microsoft format? (.wav)

[11:44] <_feh_> sda
[11:44] <quinton_> realnitro, ok
[11:44] <tek-ops> then it's either scsi or sata
[11:44] <_feh_> and sdb
[11:44] <tek-ops> there you go
[11:44] <_feh_> k
[11:44] <_feh_> thanks

[11:44] <Mike2> bam
[11:44] <Mike2> is there a guy called heffo
[11:44] <Mike2> heffocheffer
[11:44] <RealNitro> quinton_: got it I think
[11:44] <Mike2> or similar in here
[11:44] <DishBreak> anything out there equivalent to magicrotation for windows xp? xrandr won't do it
[11:44] <quinton_> realnitro, please do explain
[11:44] <RealNitro> quinton_: rename the file so it ends with .tar.gz , and nog _tar.gz
[11:45] <musselm2> Zack, I have not run the Ubuntu installer, but I imagine there is an option for auto-detect, no?
[11:45] <quinton_> realnitro, i will try
[11:45] <musselm2> Zack, has Twisted run through the installer yet?
[11:45] <ronzo_> any admins that can kick Marfi for me? =)
[11:45] <ronzo_> i got dc'd
[11:45] <_feh_> what if one is SCSI AND one is not?
[11:46] <RonzO> _feh_, then install it on the one that doesn't have the software. =)
[11:46] <Zack> musselm2: i know when i did it there was an autodetect but it just deleted XP. and yes he has but he is running into a problem on the install at 44% for some reason. and we have ruled out that the cd is the problem
[11:46] <_feh_> RonzO: I am
[11:46] <_feh_> attempting to
[11:46] <quinton_> realnitro, good job! (sad face) now i realize why the other bagillion didnt wortk
[11:46] <musselm2> Zack, that could easily be the cause.
[11:47] <musselm2> Zack, did Twisted run through the Check Disk part at the beginning of the installer, or is there not one?
[11:47] <RonzO> _feh_, do you know which is which?
[11:47] <RealNitro> quinton_: cool :)
[11:47] <Zack> musselm2: we know but the cd was checked for errors and it is a new disk. so we thought it may be connected hardware
[11:47] <_feh_> RonzO: which is what?
[11:47] <musselm2> Zack: sorry, that's all I got.
[11:47] <RonzO> _feh_, do you know which drive is the one that you need to install ubuntu on?
[11:47] <_feh_> my primary is empty the 2nd hd has data that I put on it before wiping and reformatting both drives
[11:48] <Zack> musselm2: well iv only had ubuntu for about 2 months and these are some... more technical questions i would enjoy it if you could help me out.
[11:48] <avil> hola
[11:48] <musselm2> Zack, can you message your log please?
[11:49] <radar1976> hello

[11:52] <Edulix2> how to install acrobat reader in feisty?

[11:53] <Zack> Yes the repository should have it.
[11:53] <sirus> Hi in FreeBSD 6.2-release, using p4 2.8ghz 512ddram 80gb hd, ati radeon xt 9600 pro xorg freezes when loading programs or if idle and im forced to power off my pc thinking I might need to change distros would i have the same problem in ubuntu ?
[11:53] <pike_> Edulix2: reader is so bloated though.
[11:53] <_feh_> one question: if I reformat one hd, and don't touch the other on a fresh install is there a potential that it could somehow corrupt data on the 2nd HD?
[11:53] <KuDeTa> could somebody please help me: I have a fresh ubuntu server (remote) that has an ip, but its hostname isn't operational yet, although its been configured to run with it. i tried to install some stuff with sudo apt-ge but i get an error with unable to use getbyhostname() or something to that effect. how can i bypass this??
[11:54] <Edulix2> Zack: which repository? I can't find it with aptitude sarch
[11:54] <Edulix2> aptitude search acrobat or acroread or even reader
[11:54] <Edulix2> It doesn't locate it
[11:54] <Zack> Edulix2: it should just be in synaptic
[11:54] <Edulix2> Zack: that's the same
[11:54] <Zack> I know.
[11:54] <vicox> Edulix2: medibuntu has it: http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/
[11:54] <KuDeTa> ??
[11:54] <Marfi> _feh_, im back, sorry. got DC'd
[11:55] <Edulix2> vicox:  ok

[11:57] <b^j> liquiddoom, you can use makeisofs, or if you are copying media, like a cd something like 'dd if=/dev/cdrom of=file.iso'
[11:57] <KuDeTa> pike_: i can't do that becasue i can't use sudo
[11:57] <orbisvicis> libdvdnav: DVD disk reports itself with Region mask 0x00fe0000. Regions: 1 :: Is this region 0, ie playable everywhere?

[11:57] <liquiddoom> b^j: I'll go with mkisofs
[11:58] <_feh_> Marfi: nope it won't hurt it or nope it won't be safe?
[11:58] <Marfi> _feh_, nope, it wont hurt. done it several times myself. =)
[11:58] <b^j> liquiddoom, good choice <G>.  i actually use dd to copy media all the time though
[11:58] <pike_> KuDeTa: you said you were root. i didnt mean a member of admin group. i dont know howto fix it other than hacking the box (which i dont know how to do) or having physical access

[11:59] <Ominous> how come i install this package and only get java 1.6? Sun Java(TM) Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 (architecture dependent files)?
[11:59] <younghacker> can you use dd to copy an image from the had drive to a CD-r @b^j
[11:59] <pike_> KuDeTa: i feel your pain but if you are going to run a server id enable a root account and in most cases go with debian over ubuntu
[11:59] <younghacker> *hard drive
[11:59] <b^j> younghacker, you mean if you have an iso?
[12:00] <sirus> I guess im only going to find out if i try it? can someone tell me this upon installing ubuntu will it auto configure my ati driver / xorg / and a window manager?
[12:00] <b^j> younghacker, i think so
[12:00] <younghacker> uhhh the extension is .dd
[12:00] <younghacker> i don't believe it's a iso file
[12:00] <b^j> younghacker, if it is formated as an iso, yes
[12:00] <KuDeTa> pike_: your confusing me a little, would u mind talking to me in #kudetapike for a sec?
