[12:01] <Marfi> younghacker, you can open it with archiver and see what happens
[12:01] <younghacker> hmm,,, not sure lol the point of me doing this is to forensics using autopsy and find out
[12:01] <younghacker> hmm
[12:01] <liquiddoom> b^j: Hmm... I'll just go with something like dd
[12:01] <b^j> ahhh
[12:01] <b^j> younghacker, its actaully super easy
[12:01] <younghacker> really?
[12:02] <b^j> younghacker, oh yeah, you doing this for a class or for fun?
[12:02] <liquiddoom> b^j: Although, it seems it would go recursive... backing up to /media/sdb1
[12:02] <Eric_Jardas> Is there anyone here that know to write sh scripts and is willing to help me ?
[12:02] <younghacker> class & fun my major is networking but im heavily into security and forensics
[12:03] <younghacker> but the file is on an ftp site online it's a part of a tutorial for using autopsy
[12:03] <b^j> younghacker, you should be able to mount it with a loop file system, also you can point fdisk at it just as if it were a dev
[12:03] <younghacker> hmm
[12:03] <younghacker> and will it be intact?
[12:03] <b^j> younghacker, should be
[12:03] <younghacker> cool
[12:03] <younghacker> thanks!!!
[12:03] <b^j> younghacker, i do some forensics with work
[12:04] <b^j> younghacker, and i did a bunch of this in the defcon ctf quals
[12:04] <younghacker> wow
[12:04] <younghacker> thats super cool,,, do u have any suggestions, groups, sites,, software (free)
[12:05] <eggs> every time my 7.04 starts up it has "failed" next to drivers... what does that mean ?
[12:05] <kitsun> hey, is there anyway I can associate a filetype with a program? ive been wanting to have .rm files load into realplayer instead of whatever the default it.
[12:05] <b^j> younghacker, autopsy rocks, it has good list.  the fulldisclosure and security focus lists have good info
[12:05] <Marfi> i second that from younghacker
[12:06] <b^j> younghacker, milw0rm has good info on vulns
[12:06] <b^j> well i gotta catch a bus, catch you all later
[12:06] <Marfi> later
[12:07] <younghacker> cool lemme notate,,,
[12:07] <hendrixski> I reformatted my computer.. and I had a GPG key.... how can I retrieve it?
[12:07] <younghacker> now i attempted to load the file system into autopsy directly from my HDD but autopsy did not recognize the file
[12:07] <Eric_Jardas> How can I run a program that asks for input, and set the input in one command ?
[12:08] <younghacker> is it because it wasn't a partition or drive ?
[12:08] <hendrixski> Eric_Jardas, if you're running it from command line, then just add the input after the command and it'll treat it as input
[12:08] <quinton_> Can someone help me change the boot splash screen?
[12:09] <Eric_Jardas> hendrixski, it doesn't work
[12:09] <eggs> is envy bad ?
[12:09] <hendrixski> Eric_Jardas, for example.. if the program wants you to input a file... but it has an option like myProgram -f filename then it'll run already having taken that input
[12:09] <foey> Can anyone help me. I used to run Linux on my second rig, Sempron 2800+, 512mb of ram, 9700pro graphics card. Ive just recently upgraded the processor, now ubuntu 7.04 keeps locking. Hard locking, I have to reboot. Now if I take a stick of ram out, it works fine, no matter what stick it is it will run on 256mb no problem. both sticks are 2700 Kingston. windows xp works perfectly with both...
[12:09] <foey> ...sticks. Help.
[12:09] <foey> ...processor upgraded to is a A64 3000+
[12:09] <hendrixski> Eric_Jardas, you may have to read the manual for that program to see how to pass it those paramaters from command line.... the command for the manual is man... so "man myprogram"
[12:09] <nodge> hey there... anyone got wikipediafs version 3.0 running?
[12:10] <hendrixski> Eric_Jardas, and not all programs have that kind of option... sometimes programmers are lazy
[12:10] <demonspork> does anyone know how I could get a program, namely "sudo -u bobthebuilder vncserver -httport 666 :29" to run on system startup?
[12:10] <eggs> !envy
[12:10] <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!
[12:10] <andrewkk> whoa. i just booted from my install cd and instead of going to the usual installation menu there's just this box listing... some kind of low-level hardware addresses? wth?
[12:10] <hendrixski> !man | Eric_Jardas
[12:10] <ubotu> Eric_Jardas: The "man" command brings up the Linux manual pages for the command you're interested in. Try "man intro" at the command line, or see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[12:11] <andrewkk> anyone ever seen that before?
[12:11] <NickGH> hey - anyone here use thunderbird with IMAP? really need some advice...
[12:11] <Shimfs> hi all
[12:11] <knubbe> is it possible to forward multiple ports via ssh?
[12:12] <Eric_Jardas> hendrixski, it doesn't have a manual, and it doesn't have that option. wehn i run the program it waits for input from keyboard, what i would like to do is automaticlly echo what i want to input in the command
[12:12] <hendrixski> Eric_Jardas, then.... you may not me able to :-(
[12:12] <Shimfs> i got a little problem, i have just installed ubuntu Studio (i know studio is not the real ubuntu) and i have a ATI 200m express card. and it has some problems (which i exprected)
[12:12] <Shimfs> i cant start x
[12:12] <Eric_Jardas> hendrixski, isn't there a command to echo it or something
[12:12] <Shimfs> so i found a guide, but that guide assume i have a visual ubuntu
[12:13] <quinton_> Can anyone help me install boot screen theme?
[12:13] <NickGH> ... i've just lost all my tags.. :(
[12:13] <demonspork> shimfs, what error messages show up when you try to boot?
[12:13] <foey> #
[12:13] <Shimfs> demonspork, 2 sec, let me try again
[12:13] <hendrixski> Eric_Jardas, it depends on the program. usually it'll have a man file that tells you the different parameters you can pass it before it even starts running
[12:14] <heffo> mike, that wasnt very friendly
[12:14] <Recon69> help, my gnome desktop is very bonked

[12:22] <Sonicadvance1> :D
[12:22] <demon_spork> shimfs, I know more about troubleshooting with nvidia cards than ATI, I am not sure I will be of any more help
[12:22] <Shimfs> demon_spork, ok :)
[12:22] <matttttttttt> But see I removed XP
[12:22] <aroo> matttttttttt: gparted, qtparted

[12:23] <KuDeTa> anydoes anybody know about install ubuntu-desktop on the server version
[12:23] <KuDeTa> is it wise?
[12:23] <john> thanks guys... i just delete the bad kernels from the /boot folder and ran update-grub
[12:23] <Matt544> So now when I try to install XP it says "Cannot find hard drive"
[12:24] <KuDeTa> im using a remote server
[12:24] <KuDeTa> it would be nice to see the gui sometimes
[12:24] <KuDeTa> then i can do remote connection rightt?
[12:24] <joshritger> I am trying to set up samba through the graphical interface for shared folders and I can see the share from my windows box, but it keeps asking me for a password. How do I get rid of this
[12:24] <pike_> KuDeTa: you want the full desktop with open office and all that stuff? or just a gui?
[12:25] <KuDeTa> probably just simply gui
[12:25] <Recon69> anyone got any idea what might have happened to my desktop?
[12:25] <KuDeTa> there is some kind of gnome minimal install right?
[12:25] <Shimfs> demon_spork, do you know how i enter the xorg.conf and switch the choose vesa instead of ATI (i ahve read it works)
[12:25] <KuDeTa> thing is someone told me it could be unstable and screw arround with everything
[12:25] <KuDeTa> i don't wanna mess it up

[12:27] <demon_spork> shimfs
[12:27] <avalon> Recon69: is there any way to test rather it's still functional within linux?
[12:27] <Shimfs> demon_spork, thanks
[12:28] <foey> Guys, any reason for Ubuntu installer to lock half way through copying files?
[12:28] <Shimfs> demon_spork, hmm just says its a new directory
[12:28] <Recon69> avalon: not that i know of, my clue was it stopped working in windows too
[12:28] <foey> >> its stuck on 41%
[12:28] <liquiddoom> hendrixski: Sadly, I don't think you're getting that back
[12:28] <demon_spork> shimfs, make sure you keep the same case
[12:28] <r0ut1> Synchronicity: yeaH:) nautilus, but it's not for me
[12:28] <Shimfs> demon_spork, ok
[12:28] <demon_spork> shimfs, X11 must be capitalized
[12:28] <avalon> Hmm... well  I don't have windows handy anymore
[12:29] <Shimfs> demon_spork, ahh, thats where my error is, and where my windows noobiness comes in play :P how to exit the new file i made
[12:29] <hendrixski> liquiddoom, so I have to generate a new key per computer???
[12:29] <Kotsios> installing ubuntu 7.04 (dual boot with windows xp sp2), problem right after login screen (blank screen), googled all day but didn't find anything that could help me. First timer, any help appreciated
[12:29] <demon_spork> shimfs, one big difference you will find that almost everything is case sensitive
[12:29] <andrewkk> I booted from the installation CD and got this crazy screen. http://asicreateorder.com/pub/error_070703.jpg What does that mean?
[12:29] <cables> Something messed up APT, and I'm not sure what did. Whenever I try to install anything, I get this error: dpkg: syntax error: unknown user `postfix' in statoverride file
[12:30] <kitche> cables you installed postfix most likely and it didn't add it to your system
[12:30] <kitche> cables: the user that is
[12:30] <cables> kitche, I don't think I installed postfix, maybe it was a dependency of something...
[12:30] <cables> kitche, how would I go about fixing this?
[12:30] <r0ut1> i need a file manager fo gnome (like Krusader fo KDE). Any ideas?
[12:31] <r0bby> now, like i said: anybody have a clue?
[12:31] <sudobash> hey should it be pretty easy to install ubuntu 7.04 on an imac that has osx on it?
[12:31] <r0bby> this channel frustrates me.
[12:31] <cables> kitche, postfix is installed. Should I remove it?
[12:31] <demon_spork> r0bby, why?
[12:32] <cables> r0bby, your omission of "r" at the end of "for" frustrates me. You can use ANY Linux file manager with GNOME, even your favorite KDE one.
[12:32] <kitche> cables: umm you can try but that's your best bet that it didn't add postfix user to your system and apt is complaining about it
[12:32] <Shimfs> how do i enter the "System -> Administration -> Restricted Drivers Manager" from the terminal+
[12:32] <cables> kitche, ok.
[12:32] <r0bby> demon_spork: ask a question; never get an answer.

[12:33] <Shimfs> cables, ok
[12:33] <r0bby> I know there are issues with them..
[12:33] <pike_> r0bby: typically what id recommend is an lspci -v to see the soundcard chipset and then searching ubuntuforums.org for that sound card
[12:33] <Shimfs> cables, during the installation i was not given the oppotunity to choose a root password
[12:34] <Shimfs> cables, what is the default password then?
[12:34] <cables> Shimfs, there is no root password
[12:34] <cables> Shimfs, use sudo to run anything as root

[12:34] <hendrixski> is there a program by which I can search for people and find their public GPG keys?
[12:34] <r0bby> I used alsaconf, it recognized the card; allowed me to configure it; then just didn't work period.
[12:34] <Recon69> mhh, as my gnome is messed up in 6.06 maybe I sould upgrade to 7.04
[12:34] <Shimfs> cables, ok but what if i need to enter root? i said root as user name and did not type anything in password and it says its wrogn
[12:34] <sudobash> someone knows im sure
[12:34] <r0bby> trust me, I googled.
[12:34] <cables> sudobash, quit repeating.
[12:34] <wday> What package contains the man pages for things like malloc, memset, memcpy?
[12:35] <cables> hendrixski, < sudo aptitude install seahorse >
[12:35] <demon_spork> shimfs, by default you can't log in as root
[12:35] <hendrixski> cables, I'll give seahorse a try... thanks
[12:35] <r0ut1> :\
[12:35] <cables> Shimfs, to run anything as root, just use sudo <command> or type sudo -i to enter a root prompt. You can't log in a root without defeating the security features Ubuntu provides.
[12:35] <wday> nm, go ubuntu forums
[12:35] <demon_spork> just use "sudo <command>" to run thins as root
[12:35] <Miranda32> is it possible to recover data has already been overwritten?

[12:36] <Shimfs> cables, ok but all the guides i read on the net where i need to use that manager (so i can get X to work) i have to select something, and apparently i cant in X
[12:37] <Recon69> avalon : I would suggest you pop out the DVD drive and try it in a different computer, easy way to find out if the lazer is toast
[12:37] <cables> Shimfs, if X is broken, you can't use restricted-manager to fix it because that is an application that runs in X. You'll need to figure out what the problem is, and fix it with the command line.

[12:38] <Miranda32> HEre is the dumb story. I moved a folder from D to C, then I accidentally banned all accounts from login in, then I reinstalled and forgot to moved that folder from C back to D (I could have reinstalled without formatting, but I forgot). Then I recovered that folder from D to C using recovery my files, but most files were corrupted
[12:38] <cables> Shimfs, so, what's the problem?
[12:38] <Kotsios> how to edit the xorg.conf halfway through the installation process?
[12:38] <CalJohn> By default, does ubuntu automagically setup grub to take account of a windowsxp partition?  How do I get it to do that again now I've added a windows drive to the machine?
[12:38] <cables> Kotsios, why would you want to do that?
[12:38] <Shimfs> cables, when i start ubuntustudio, it says x could not be loaded and then it ask me if i want to see a detailed explanation
[12:39] <pike_> Kotsios: youll have to restart x for it to take affect
[12:39] <cables> CalJohn, it will automatically set up Grub so you can boot into both Windows and Linux.
[12:39] <Kotsios> because i have a problem (installation freezes) and looks like it's my ati graphics card's fault
[12:39] <smultron> when i'm trying to set up Zimbra, it keeps asking me for a "logical hostname"... what's that?
[12:39] <cables> Shimfs, I'm not sure why that's happening, and can't really help you.
[12:39] <cables> Sorry
[12:39] <Shimfs> cables, np
[12:39] <CalJohn> cables: that's exactly what I want.  How do I do it now ubuntu is installed?
[12:40] <Kotsios> hm some help on how-to because i'm completely new (i have to actually install it to get some experience)
[12:40] <cables> CalJohn, so you installed Windows when Ubuntu was installed?
[12:40] <bulmer> anyone have any recommended ATSC (hdtv) and FTA (free to air) cards that works on ubuntu? kindly say a lil bit about it?
[12:40] <CalJohn> cables: kinda.  I installed ubuntu without the windows drive in the machine.
[12:40] <Shimfs> cables, how to set up X?
[12:40] <Shimfs> cables, like, how to open up the file
[12:40] <Shimfs> demon_spork, what was the path for xorg.conf again?
[12:40] <cables> Shimfs, the file is /etc/X11/xorg.conf, although if you don't know that you're not going to be able to set it up.
[12:40] <r0bby> crimsun_: when you're around could you privmsg or highlight please. Thanks.
[12:40] <cables> Shimfs, you'll probably need help from here.
[12:41] <pike_> Kotsios: alt-ctrl-f2  then login then type sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg    select vesa as your driver and defaults for everything else. then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart  or alt-f7 and then alt-ctrl-backspace
[12:41] <Shimfs> cables, i will try
[12:41] <pike_> Kotsios: remember alt-f7 gets ya back to x screen
[12:41] <Shimfs> cables, permission denied even though im in sudo -i mode :S
[12:41] <cables> CalJohn, can't you select which drive to boot off of in your BIOS? If you want to set up Grub again, follow the guide from Ubotu:
[12:41] <cables> !grub | CalJohn
[12:41] <ubotu> CalJohn: 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
[12:41] <CalJohn> cables: I can, but grub is better.
[12:42] <cables> CalJohn, I have no experience using Grub with multiple HDs, so see if the guide from Ubotu is any help.
[12:42] <Kotsios> pike_, can we talk in private please?
[12:42] <cables> Kotsios, you need to register first
[12:42] <cables> !register | Kotsios
[12:42] <ubotu> Kotsios: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[12:42] <pike_> Kotsios: /join #pike_
[12:43] <Fedman> This is a bit weird but. Does anyone knows how can I change the skin of the win apps that I run from wine so that they match ubuntu's color?
[12:43] <hexidigital> hello folks... i have a problem (?) with lm-sensors... under dapper with the server kernel, lm-sensors reported 50C as a high temp for my CPU, however after an edgy fresh install, still with the server kernel, it reports 127C as the high... should this be a concern to me?
[12:43] <cables> that works too :)
[12:43] <servlsuserls> i am back again
[12:43] <Edzhjus> ok..anyone can give me java install file link for Ubuntu 6.6?
[12:43] <cables> Fedman, no, sorry
[12:43] <cables> Edzhjus, no need for that. Just run this command: sudo aptitude install sun-java6-plugin
[12:43] <Kotsios> !register Kotsios
[12:43] <Edzhjus> oh
[12:43] <cables> Edzhjus, or if you don't want the plugin and only want the JRE, use: sudo aptitude install sun-java6-jre
[12:43] <Edzhjus> i writed just java
[12:44] <bia> hello everybody
[12:44] <InHisName> hello bia
[12:44] <cables> !register > Kotsios (please see the PM from Ubotu)
[12:44] <rustalot> how do i delete a launchpad specification I made?
[12:44] <servlsuserls> helllo
[12:45] <bia> I just upgraded manually from ubuntu 5.10 to 6.06, but something seems to be wrong as I can upgrade to a more recent version... any help?
[12:45] <Matt544> How do I erase my hard drive?
[12:45] <_nnx_> My upgrade from Edgy to Feisty went well, but every so often something goes completely haywire, X.org stops responding and crashes, CPU usage goes through the roof for programs that SHOULD be terminated (i.e. Firefox from the old X.org session, bash, init), other progrmas die (i.e. cron, gdm keeps restarting itself), and often I have to reboot.  Any ideas?  I'm completely out.
[12:46] <dt1> i just installed sun-java6 sun-ja6-plugin sun-java6-fonts but when i type java in the terminal i still get gjc, why?
[12:46] <cables> Matt544, securely?
[12:46] <Matt544> What does that mean
[12:46] <cables> Matt544, as in, you don't want the data to be recoverable?
[12:46] <Shimfs> cables, i have found something promising while reconfiguring X
[12:46] <bulmer> Matt544: different ways, from rm to partitioning it
[12:46] <InHisName> I just installed 7.04 and messed it up already. Didn't do 5.10 or 5.06, bia
[12:46] <_nnx_> At least once a day or so, to be specific.
[12:46] <Matt544> No I just want to delete EVERYTHING so I can load Xp back on
[12:46] <JDStone> when I sync to my local NTP server, I receive: ntpdate[26890] : no server suitable for synchronization found
[12:46] <bia> when running sudo apt-get dist-upgrade I get "The following packages have been kept back:  gnome-cups-manager python-netcdf"
[12:46] <cables> Matt544, You can reformat it or delete all the files if you just want them gone, but if you want it to be immune from data recovery attempts, you need to use something like Darik's Boot and Nuke
[12:46] <ccollander> XP!!!
[12:46] <cables> Matt544, no need to delete everything
[12:47] <cables> Matt544, just use the XP installer and it'll delete everything for you.
[12:47] <Shimfs> cables, a synaptic touch pad, is that eiter input/mice psaux, ttyS0, tts0 or gpmdata ?
[12:47] <bia> InHisName, I see
[12:47] <Matt544> Cables can you Private chat me
[12:47] <Matt544> please
[12:47] <cables> Shimfs, i have no idea
[12:47] <Shimfs> cables, ok
[12:47] <Matt544> Nobody has helped me yet
[12:47] <tapas> hmm
[12:47] <tapas> i wonder how i can make gcc-3.4 the default
[12:47] <d4rkmonkey> Matt544, ?
[12:47] <bia> I'll check the website again, mut be something in my config files (I had modified them by hand)
[12:48] <servlsuserls> how do i change my name
[12:48] <Matt544> I dont mean just this moment but over the amount of time i have been trying to fic this
[12:48] <tapas> th egalternatives doesn't seem to offer mwe all installed versins of gcc
[12:48] <cables> Matt544, what do you want? Just stick the XP install CD in and install XP and it'll automatically clear the Ubuntu CD now.
[12:48] <Matt544> fix*
[12:48] <bia> ok, brb
[12:48] <Matt544> Cables | In my Ubuntu install I had to be an idiot and told it to use all disk, therefore deleting XP.
[12:48] <KuDeTa> pike_ u thr?
[12:48] <d4rkmonkey> Matt544, better for you ;) XP sucks.
[12:49] <tapas> is the debian alternatives mechanism not supported in feisty?
[12:49] <r0bby_> Matt544: be glad =)
[12:49] <bulmer> whats the difference between using "/etc/init.d/gdm start" and "/usr/bin/gnome-session" ?  does gdm calls gnome-session?
[12:49] <Edzhjus> ok now we`ll know..and what about skype on 6.06? just skype with sudo apt-get isn`t working..
[12:49] <briancron> yeah that's a solution not a problem Matt544
[12:49] <Matt544> So when I pop in my XP disk it loads and whatnot, then says "Press enter to install XP"
[12:49] <cables> Matt544, so do the same thing you did when installing Ubuntu, except this time with Windows XP. Am I missing something?
[12:49] <tgelter> hey all, how can I do some sort of system restore of the ubuntu system? I've managed to make it so I don't have icons on several programs, broken java, and made it so that I can't get vmware to come up, no matter how many times I try to reconfigure/reinstall it
[12:49] <cables> Edzhjus, go to skype.com and download the Debian package.
[12:49] <KuDeTa> anyone know about installing gui on an ubuntu server (remote) is it safe
[12:49] <Matt544> I press enter and it cannot find hard drive
[12:49] <Matt544> That is my problem
[12:49] <pike_> KuDeTa: im in #pike_ right now :)  justa sec
[12:49] <Edzhjus> debian? oh yes..right..forgot.. :)
[12:50] <cables> Matt544, that's an XP problem, not an Ubuntu problem. We can't help you with that here.
[12:50] <Matt544> Ubuntu makes it so windows setup cannot read my hard drive
[12:50] <InHisName> bia, sounds like those were saved and not upgraded? So see if they run. Does your printer work  like before ?  [cups]  . I don't know about netcdf or what it supposed to do.
[12:50] <cables> Matt544, that's not true, it doesn't affect how Windows setup ssk.ees the hard di
[12:50] <Matt544> But you can help me with formatting my HD out of Ubuntu
[12:50] <cables> Matt544, damn, I meant to say that that's not true. Ubuntu can't change how XP setup sees the drive.
[12:50] <bulmer> Matt544: you can possibly use the liveCD to boot and use the diskpartition to format and partition it
[12:50] <briancron> Matt544: I don't think it will help but you can format the disk to FAT32 using the Ubuntu Live CD I think
[12:51] <Matt544> LiveCD ?
[12:51] <d4rkmonkey> ...
[12:51] <briancron> The Ubuntu disk
[12:51] <d4rkmonkey> Matt544, the CD you used to install
[12:51] <Matt544> I downloaded the .ISO and burned it to a disk
[12:51] <bia> InHisName, I didn't even try printing...
[12:51] <Matt544> is that the same thing?
[12:51] <d4rkmonkey> yeah, the live CD...
[12:51] <briancron> yeah that's it
[12:51] <servlsuserls> i wanna change my name but i dunno how
[12:51] <Shimfs> cables, yay i made it work :D
[12:51] <d4rkmonkey> unless you downloaded the alternate
[12:51] <Edzhjus> ok tnx for now
[12:51] <bia> just had these old 5.10 CDs, and was trying to get a newer Ubuntu on this machine
[12:52] <bia> InHisName, if I were less lazy I'd just dload&burn the latest version and install from a CD...
[12:52] <Matt544> I downloaded 7.04 Desktop Edition

[12:54] <Amaranth> Known trolls
[12:54] <bulmer> logreeval: you can, have two different configuration files like /etc/network/interfaces, renaming one for the other wep enabled router
[12:54] <ibanex> logreeval: okay, i believe you would just hit the floopy disk logo to save a location, then create a new one with different settings and save that as well
[12:54] <d4rkmonkey> OuZo, it should just be your IP to connect I believe. I'm not completly sure
[12:54] <logreeval> an, thanks guys!!
[12:55] <logreeval> you guys rock
[12:55] <Mike2> I know I do
[12:55] <logreeval> :P
[12:55] <Mike2> Thanks!!
[12:55] <d4rkmonkey> OuZo, you need to have the right ports and everything and you might have to set up port forwarding on your router (not sure how)
[12:55] <PurpZeY> Can someone help me out, my Xchat keeps freezing up, whenever I start it
[12:55] <OuZo> d4rkmonkey, thanks i will try that. do you know how i can turn off all these messages when people log on & off? i am using xchat? thanks
[12:55] <ibanex> PurpZeY: have you tried purging and reinstalling?
[12:55] <patrlck> hi
[12:55] <Matt544> OK I am booting my LiveCD right now
[12:56] <patrlck> My dvd burner is burning very slow. When I reboot it burns the first dvd very fast then when I burn more dvds it gets slow ... anyone have a clue ?
[12:56] <d4rkmonkey> OuZo, I don't know if you can turn of those messages.. it would be helpful in this server I guess
[12:56] <PurpZeY> ibanex: Well, no I mean, it works, it has worked...I'm sure a reboot would fix it, but I am wondering what is causing it now
[12:56] <Matt544> There are 6 options
[12:56] <Matt544> Start or Install
[12:56] <bulmer> PurpZeY: you try also using strace to see what libraries it calls and fails
[12:56] <hendrixski> YAY!!! I found my old gpg key...I can't find out how to set it as my default key on this new computer?  anybody know???
[12:56] <Matt544> What do I do at the LiveCD menu?
[12:56] <OuZo> d4rkmonkey, i read about it some where on the xchat site, but cant find it, i asked in #xchat a few hours ago but no one replied
[12:56] <OuZo> thanks thou
[12:56] <sindre> help: With all repos enabled - anyway i can check i got that? or how do i do it?
[12:56] <sn0> press return Matt544 :)
[12:57] <Matt544> On Install?
[12:57] <d4rkmonkey> OuZo, sorry, I can do a quick check for you
[12:57] <bulmer> Matt544: let it go through its process of full booting and then mount the hd you want to partition
[12:57] <PurpZeY> bulmer: That is a decent idea...It appears to work, I mean, I see myself connect, and I get identd but then i never get a channel or anything like that, it just "freezes"
[12:57] <OuZo> ok thanks
[12:58] <tgelter> hey all, how can I do some sort of system restore of the ubuntu system? I've managed to make it so I don't have icons on several programs, broken java, and made it so that I can't get vmware to come up, no matter how many times I try to reconfigure/reinstall it
[12:58] <bulmer> PurpZeY: i dont know, am guessing your connection stalls and it just waits there til it times out
[12:58] <d4rkmonkey> OuZo, I think you might need to get a plugin or something to do it...
[12:58] <pi3> how do I disable desktop-effects from bash?
[12:59] <patrlck> isn't there a channel for k3b ? :/
[12:59] <OuZo> d4rkmonkey, ok maybe it was a perl script i saw...
[12:59] <PurpZeY> bulmer: I suppose the best thing to do would be to just reboot...What happened I think was that I tried to connect during a netsplit...then things got all weird
[12:59] <bia> ppl, I need help on upgrading from 5.10... anyone?
[12:59] <bulmer> pi3 whats a desktop-effects from bash? bash creates somekind of graphics?
[12:59] <DeViLs> what software to see PDF in ubuntu
[01:00] <PurpZeY> !upgrade ! bia

[01:00] <d4rkmonkey> desktop effects hates my computer
[01:00] <d4rkmonkey> it makes it freeze
[01:00] <DeViLs> Amaranth, i need to software for open
[01:00] <pi3> bulmer: I want to make a script that disables it (apart from other things)
[01:00] <d4rkmonkey> ubuntu didn't like my computer at first either
[01:00] <PurpZeY> bia: There is a command in ubotu that explains it
[01:01] <bulmer> pi3: thats beyond me, i have not had compiz working yet..ill let someone else assist you on that one
[01:01] <bia> PurpZeY, I managed to upgrade to 6.06LTS but not from there

[01:02] <Judg3_Dr34D> noob here: can anyone help me with installing Inkscape on Feisty?
[01:02] <tzafrir_laptop> Hi, I was helping someone build an external module on an Ubuntu 5.10 system
[01:02] <bulmer> GMWeezel: im not sure the sequence as I am trying to learn that part of it.. look at /etc/X11/Xsession.d/*  and see if those scripts gets run before gdm does or not
[01:02] <pi3> Judg3_Dr34D: sudo apt-get install inkscape
[01:03] <Judg3_Dr34D> yes but there is a problem : cannot install inkscape because of md5sum error
[01:03] <DETZIWT> hi i hope i am back in the right way
[01:03] <tzafrir_laptop> The linux-headers package did not have set the modules path correctly. I had to patch the Makefile myself. Which was probably the wrong thing to do
 had you tried to install it before?
[01:04] <Judg3_Dr34D> no 1st time today
[01:04] <Matt544> OK I am at the install, now it asking me how to partition the disk
[01:04] <DETZIWT> is it possible to instal ubuntu from an online source
[01:04] <Judg3_Dr34D> pi3: i tried 4 times, the same thing
[01:04] <Matt544> How large should I make the partition size?
[01:04] <GMWeezel> bulmer: no luck yet
[01:05] <DETZIWT> what is the prob judg
[01:05] <Judg3_Dr34D> Failed to fetch http://gr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/i/inkscape/inkscape_0.45-0ubuntu4_amd64.deb: MD5Sum mismatch
[01:05] <Matt544> How large should I make the partition size?
 I cant install inkscape
[01:05] <DETZIWT> ok
[01:06] <bulmer> GMWeezel: gdm is a binary, so its hard to look what it does to activate X and the relationship of scripts in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/
[01:06] <DETZIWT> thought u had the same prob as
[01:06] <DETZIWT> me
[01:06] <zmh_> :)
[01:06] <DETZIWT> can anybody help me
[01:07] <DETZIWT> i am freakin out here becouse of either my unnolige or just a stupid pc
[01:07] <Acirby> #BashFr
[01:07] <DETZIWT> or both
[01:07] <Judg3_Dr34D> I downloaded the tar.gz file of Inkscape but I have no idea how to install it (I just installed ubuntu)
[01:07] <pi3> how do I disable desktop-effects from command?
[01:08] <DETZIWT> why does the 7.04 live .iso crach at 44% of the install
[01:09] <joshritger> can someone please tell me why i can't log into my wifi network that uses a wpa, I can see it in network manager but not log into it
[01:09] <rebroad> hi, anyone know if it's possible to rotate the desktop 180 please?
[01:09] <Amaranth> pi3: desktop-effects --disable
[01:09] <DETZIWT> i tried at least 10 times
[01:09] <sesamebike> Matt544: repartitioning the disc will probably not help win XP installer recognizing it. Have you searched Microsoft forums for possible reasons to why their installer might fail? Normally it shouldn't matter what's on the disc at all, the XP installer should be able to wipe any disc, even unformatted ones.
[01:09] <bulmer> Judg3_Dr34D: try reading the Readme file upon untarring that  tar file..it should have some directions how to install it
[01:10] <pi3> Amaranth: does not work, only opens desktop-effects just like $ desktop-effects :(
[01:10] <Judg3_Dr34D> bulmer: I did that but I just installed for the 1st time ubuntu
[01:10] <nitro4ce> is there a gconf string to remove the gnome logo located in the menu bar?
[01:10] <nitro4ce> (usually a foot)
[01:10] <DETZIWT> if only i could do that installing it......

[01:11] <T-Connect> How I check to see what version of ATI driver that I have?
[01:11] <n2diy_> T-Connect: lsmod
[01:11] <T-Connect> Ok
[01:12] <bulmer> Judg3_Dr34D: umm maybe its too early for you then to install from source, perhaps you can find a deb package premade?
[01:12] <DETZIWT> is there anyone who can help?? Please
[01:12] <flo_> hi. How to apply an additional group to a user immediately? I thought on starting a new shell it would be fine?
[01:13] <flo_> i added it with kde user administration
[01:13] <T-Connect> Hmmm not it.
[01:13] <T-Connect> Wrong command?
[01:13] <T-Connect> lsmod
[01:14] <bulmer> flo_: you mean if a user is already log on have a session? you wan to add that user to another group?
[01:14] <kados_> DETZIWT : Whats the issue again?
[01:14] <Judg3_Dr34D> bulmer: I wish I knew what a deb file is...  :( <---- total noob
[01:14] <DETZIWT> hey kados
[01:14] <DETZIWT> wait i will change my name in TWIZTEDbytheloop
[01:14] <kados_> hey
[01:15] <bia> ok, will retry a manual upgrade
[01:15] <kados_> ok
[01:15] <bia> tell you ho it went afterwards
[01:15] <bulmer> Judg3_Dr34D: those are basically a package of utilities or the application itself..try to use synaptic and see if its there
[01:15] <Lunar_Lamp> Even when installing packages from official repo's (e.g. http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com feisty/main) I get an error about "untrusted packages".  How can I fix this?
[01:15] <T-Connect> Never mind. I will reinstall ATI to find out the version that I have.
[01:15] <flo_> bulmer: yes. It's possible , isnt it?
[01:15] <Mike2> Welcome back Bhaal
[01:16] <Judg3_Dr34D> it is there but when it finishes downloading I get the same message "Failed to fetch http://gr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/i/inkscape/inkscape_0.45-0ubuntu4_amd64.deb: MD5Sum mismatch"
[01:16] <kados_> TWIZTEDbytheloop : Okay so what is the issue again?
[01:16] <bulmer> flo_ no, because the session is already established, the next logon perhaps will
[01:16] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> the problem is kados that whit the instal it crashes at 44% at the file copying stage
[01:16] <flo_> bulmer: i see.
[01:17] <T-Connect> Oh here it is 8.37.6
[01:17] <kados_> hmmm how did the partitioning go? Did you select to format your partitions?
[01:17] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> i could only selct the ext3 one and i did dad
[01:17] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> so the swap wasn`t formatted
[01:18] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> needer where the fat32 ones
[01:18] <Valicious> can anyone help me?  I'm trying to burn DVDs, but any program I use won't work
[01:19] <kados_> TWIZTEDbytheloop : And did you test the CD for defects?
[01:19] <d4rkmonkey> Valicious, what OS?
[01:19] <riksta> Hi there, feisty automatically mounts my external HDD in "/media/My Book", but i want to share it over samba. This means i want to set HAL or whatever automatically mounts the external HDD so that the permissions are 755, please can someone tell me how i can go about this?
[01:19] <pi3> Judg3_Dr34D: do this, go to synaptic and change the country where you download from. From Greece to Italy for example
[01:20] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> yep several times
[01:20] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> none
[01:20] <pi3> reload and try to download
[01:20] <Valicious> Ubuntu amd64 fiesty fawn
[01:20] <sirus> trying to install ubuntu but my monitor goes out saying over range what res is ubuntu set at?
[01:20] <d4rkmonkey> you sure ubuntu recognizes your drive?
[01:21] <d4rkmonkey> it doesn't recognize mine at all
[01:21] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> sirus had the same thing with my monitor just autoadjust
[01:21] <pi3> Judg3_Dr34D or from the main server
[01:21] <sirus> hrmm
[01:21] <sirus> its a sis chipset
[01:21] <sirus> onboard anyone know if it will see it
[01:21] <sirus> ?
[01:21] <kados_> what size is your ext3 partitions?
[01:21] <Judg3_Dr34D> pi3: tried to do that but it started checking all the repositories, isn't there a way to select only inkscape to download from a different location?
[01:21] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> about 9.5
[01:22] <stunix> does anyone know of a good howto on how to get flash working with firefox on x86_64?
[01:22] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> maybe 10 gb
[01:22] <Valicious> d4rk, yeah.  It gives the names and model etc in the program, but it reporta an error whenever I try to burn a dvd
[01:22] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> brb kados
[01:22] <kados_> k
[01:23] <GMWeezel> bulmer: i figured out what i was trying to do; to run something after the X server starts, you have to create the file ~/.xsession with the programs you want run after X starts. you have to make sure you add "gnome-session" though
[01:23] <kitche> stunix: nspluginwrapper can do what you want
[01:23] <sirus> damn
[01:23] <d4rkmonkey> have you ever burnt .iso with it? The simplest way to burn a CD/DVD in feisty is right clicking the .iso and choosing burn to disk, if that works I know for sure its not a problem with drivers, and its a problem with the software
[01:23] <sirus> windows it is
[01:23] <PurpZeY> !nickspam
[01:23] <ubotu> 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
[01:23] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> back kados
[01:24] <stunix> kitche: do you know of any website which exaplains how to do that?
[01:24] <kitche> sirus: it should see it but it's sis so who knows really
[01:24] <kitche> stunix: yeah hang on
[01:24] <Valicious> d4rk:  lemme try that real quick
[01:24] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> my ext3 is about 10gb and my swap is 1gb
[01:25] <Valicious> b4rk:  nope, it still gives me an error
[01:26] <kitche> stunix: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=341727 explains it really well actually
[01:26] <d4rkmonkey> Valicious, I'm not 100% sure but its problem with the drivers for your drive in Ubuntu
[01:26] <stunix> kitche: thanks alot. :)
[01:26] <Kelden> Hello, I'm trying to dualboot XP with Ubuntu using a live cd but it fails to resize the existing hdr1 (XP), can anyone help?
[01:27] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> kados u still there
[01:27] <Kelden> there is also a recovery partition (hdr2) on the drive that came preloaded
[01:27] <d4rkmonkey> Kelden, I don't know if this will work, but you could try partitioning with GParted, and leave a big ol free space for Ubuntu. Then install and use the unallocated space? I don't know if this will work though
[01:28] <marmer> aiuto install joomla
[01:28] <marmer> sorry
[01:28] <Kelden> thanks, i'll look at the man for gparted
[01:29] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> kados_
[01:29] <OmegaCenti> Kelden: ?
 probably, change the gr from the link to us or ar. Then write in the command wget <link>
[01:29] <OmegaCenti> nm
[01:30] <d4rkmonkey> Hey how do I check the manual for the mount command?
[01:30] <OmegaCenti> man mount
[01:30] <d4rkmonkey> XD
[01:30] <d4rkmonkey> I hope you realize I just wanted to see you say man mount OmegaCenti
[01:30] <OmegaCenti> sok, you have to start somewhere :)
[01:30] <OmegaCenti> pfft. don't care :p
[01:30] <d4rkmonkey> lol
[01:30] <d4rkmonkey> man mount...
[01:30] <d4rkmonkey> sounds so funny
[01:31] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> kados_ u there
[01:31] <sirus> can someone save me
[01:31] <Mike2> Welcome back Sx66gns
[01:31] <confused_David> hello
[01:31] <Judg3_Dr34D> pi3: you mean something like "wget http://fto.ntua.gr/ubuntu/pool/main/i/inkscape/inkscape_0.45-0ubuntu4_amd64.deb" ??
[01:32] <vlt|home> Hello. I'm booting 7.04 live cd on a ThinkPad. What boot parameter do I have to add to avoid the I/O errors on fd0 when booting?
[01:32] <kados_> yeah man
[01:32] <kados_> sorry
[01:32] <kados_> Im at work
[01:32] <m55> how can i dump the images out of a pdf?  I have a pdf that is just a bunch of scanned images and it's really slow to view
, I don't remember the first link, but yes, just replace gr with us

[01:32] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> its ok
[01:33] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> did u get it
[01:33] <ShiftyPowers> anyone have experience running reiserfsck and rebuild-tree?
[01:33] <confused_David> can someone tell me why when it says fbsetbg -f wallpaper in the ~/.fluxbox/startup and i do that it does not work
[01:33] <Judg3_Dr34D> pi3: ok I'll try that now in terminal
[01:33] <kados_> TWIZTEDbytheloop : I had this happen with a windows machine and a linux machine.... what I did was cut the ext3 partition in half... and then tried installing on the first half and then the second half...to see if either would install sucessfully
 it will download to the home dir
[01:34] <vlt|home> m55: That's part of pkg "poppler-utils".
[01:34] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> yes and ....??
[01:34] <m55> vlt: thanks
[01:34] <Judg3_Dr34D> pi3: hmmm... ok... after that ???
[01:34] <kados_> if one half would... then that means the other half has problems....
[01:34] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> how is the outcome
[01:35] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> ok but u did that right
[01:35] <vlt|home> Any idea how to disable fd0 when booting live cd on a ThinkPad?
[01:35] <kados_> then I cut that bad half in half...until I isolated the smallest half that had the issue. I made that small half inactive
[01:35] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> it has to become a dual boot sys
[01:35] <confused_David> does anyone use fluxbox here?
[01:35] <d4rkmonkey> vlt|home, no idea, but you can always try using the alternate, I was having some tty error booting from the live, but didn't get an error when I used the alternate
[01:36] <ShiftyPowers> has anyone stopped rebuild-tree when running reiserfsck
[01:36] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> hey i am not that fermilliar with the stuff that i can do that without risk
[01:36] <ibanex> confused_David: yes
[01:36] <sirus> onboard anyone know if it will see it
[01:36] <vlt|home> d4rkmonkey: hmmm, thanks, but I need the live cd running there (can't install right now).

[01:37] <confused_David> ibanex: have you ever changed your wallpaper.  and how do you keep it the same after restarting.  the fbsetbg -f mywallpaper does not work when i put in the startup file
[01:37] <sirus> the*
[01:37] <sirus> kitche: every time i load it up tp install the screen blanks out
[01:37] <kados_> TWIZTEDbytheloop : Is windows already installed on one partition?
[01:37] <liquiddoom> I installed the kernel-modules for my kernel and the generic package, but it won't install
[01:37] <sirus> kitche: i see the ubuntu logo
[01:37] <vlt|home> (aah, after ~2 min timeout it stops trying to access /dev/fd0 and continues booting.)
[01:37] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> yup and running at the moment
[01:37] <liquiddoom> It needs the vmnet module running, I believe
[01:38] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> its this one
[01:38] <Judg3_Dr34D> pi3: ok I downloaded the file... should I just double click on it?

[01:39] <sirus> kitche: any idea?
[01:40] <confused_David> ibanex: i could write in the terminal and it works.  but in the file it does not work
[01:40] <craigbass1976> Ok folks, I'm having conniptions over this...  I fdisk /dev/hdb and delete hdb5.  Write out to partition table.  Recreate it, write out to partition table.  Try to mkfs.ext3 /dev/hdb5 and get "/dev/hdb5 is apparently in use by the system; will not make a filesystem here!"  reboot (because I remember seeing a note about rebooting in fdisk) and now I get the same thing.  Mount -t ext3 /dev/hdb5 gives me "mount: /dev/hdb5 al
[01:40] <craigbass1976> ready mounted or /mnt busy"
[01:40] <Beriant> hey can anyone tell me why when i click on an executable icon or w/e it dosnt do anything?
[01:40] <Beriant> the symbol for it is a blue diamond

[01:41] <Erlend> Hello! How can I get libssl.so.4? Synaptic only has different versions, it seems. I have a program that needs libssl.so.4 to start.
[01:41] <craigbass1976> head -20 filename
[01:41] <d4rkmonkey> Valicious, what kind of file is it?
[01:41] <Beriant> im not sure havet tried that yet
[01:41] <ibanex> confused_David: weird, maybe try to write a script with a sleep then fbsetbg in it... then execute that script from startup
[01:41] <Valicious> .exe
[01:41] <ibanex> confused_David: although that is a little dirty
[01:41] <craigbass1976> Beriant, head -20 filename   If you get gobbly stuff, it's a binary.  If not it's some kind of script and you need to tell the icon proerties to run in a shell
[01:41] <d4rkmonkey> uhhh .exe is for windows, i don't think you will be able to use that drive on linux
[01:41] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> ok the first is NTFS as boot with windows 10 gb---->>>> the second is EXT3 as "/" for linux 10gb----->>> the third is the swap as linux/swap 1 gb----->>>> then an extended one with 2 large paritions as fat32
[01:42] <confused_David> yeah
[01:42] <Beriant> i installed in the terminal,alright ill try that 2sesc
[01:42] <confused_David> ibanex: i was trying not to do that but it seems to be the case :(
[01:42] <ibanex> confused_David: is your theme wallpaper being used instead?
[01:42] <craigbass1976> Beriant, what's the file?
[01:42] <pike_> Erlend: you might just be able to make a symlink to the current lib. what does locate libssl.so say?
[01:42] <Beriant> nmap
[01:42] <ibanex> confused_David: cause maybe you can just edit that line out of ~/.fluxbox/styles/yourTheme
[01:42] <d4rkmonkey> Valicious, try to find a driver for linux
[01:43] <Valicious> erk...anyone know a place I can download firmware and driver update for my ND-3520A burner?
[01:43] <liquiddoom> Ubuntu is keeping back one kernel update and I want to install VMware. Should I update the kernel now?
[01:43] <pike_> liquiddoom: yeah. i would or youll have to redo vmware later

[01:44] <Beriant> craig,2secs
 Very well, how do I go about telling apt/aptitude to force the update?
[01:44] <pike_> m55: imagemagick id say is your best bet
[01:44] <confused_David> ibanex: basically comment it
[01:44] <craigbass1976> Beriant, 2secs?  Are you running a commodore?  :)
[01:44] <grompf_> server irc.gnome.org
[01:44] <pike_> m55: it includes many image tools cli
[01:44] <Beriant> craig,hahaha i dont even know what a commodore is
[01:44] <m55> pike: alright
[01:44] <ibanex> confused_David: yeah.. if it's there in your theme file.  also just checking that you have an & after the fbset in startup
[01:44] <Beriant> craig,its /usr/local/bin
[01:44] <liquiddoom> beriant: really old computer system
[01:45] <Beriant> hahaha no im not running an old system
[01:45] <Ominous> whats the best way to install beryl ?
[01:45] <hatem> Bonsoir, je suis un nouveau utilisateur d'ubuntu (5.10), mon jdk execute seuelement les apps console mais les apps interface ne les execute pas, aider moi svp
[01:45] <Erlend> pike_: locate libssl.so gives this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28419/ --- do I just create a symlink called libssl.so.4 in /usr/lib?
[01:45] <cafuego> Ominous: "not"
[01:45] <craigbass1976> Beriant, ahh, but you got the joke.  People who do are getting rare...
[01:45] <Beriant> craig, :D
[01:45] <confused_David> oh ok
[01:45] <Ominous> cafuego, why?
[01:45] <confused_David> thanks
[01:45] <mrigns> !fr > hatem
[01:45] <confused_David> ill try that
[01:45] <cafuego> Ominous: The second best way is you use the beryl repo, use theur code, which is newer than what is in Ubuntu.
[01:45] <vlt|home> m55: for less overhead you may have a look at netpbm.
[01:45] <Beriant> craig,alright so explain to me what i need to do again
[01:46] <cafuego> Ominous: Buggy
[01:46] <Ominous> in what way? what is more stable?
[01:46] <ibanex> confused_David: yeah it would be: fbsetbg -f yourbackground &
[01:46] <cafuego> Ominous: The non-GL standard window manager is more stable.
[01:46] <Pirate_Hunter> hi people can you tell me how to format my slave disk as I cant find disk manager on Feisty compared to Drapper?
[01:46] <sean__> can someone help me with ktorrent?
[01:46] <m55> vlt: ok
[01:46] <cafuego> Ominous: I ran beryl from ubuntu.beryl-project.org for a while.
[01:46] <confused_David> yeah i tried that
[01:46] <craigbass1976> Beriant, did a private window open up with me?
[01:47] <hatem> wring> yes
[01:47] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> kados_
[01:47] <craigbass1976> Beriant, chatty in here and nobody is answerign my question anyway
[01:47] <kados_> TWIZTEDbytheloop : Just cut it in half.... and try installing on both... if one half works.... then you will know that the other half is somehow damaged..... but most likely not that entire half.... if you want to make sure you get as much space as possible you are going to want to keep cutting that bad half in half and adding that portion of that half in half... until you find the exact...
[01:47] <kados_> ...small section that is failing your install.
[01:47] <Beriant> craig, ye i got it,replied to ya
[01:47] <ibanex> confused_David: no go?
[01:48] <Ominous> when i go system --> preferences --> Desktop i get an error "The Composite extention is not available"
[01:48] <kados_> TWIZTEDbytheloop : As long as you dotn mess with the NTFS partitions you will not lose your windows install
[01:48] <Ominous> where can i get it?
[01:48] <confused_David> ibanex: trying now i dobules
[01:48] <Sam330> How do I install Ubuntu on my Win2k computer and use GRUB to dual boot?
[01:48] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> isnt there a way to chack the disk otherwise
[01:48] <kados_> TWIZTEDbytheloop : Good thing is that the Grub boot loader wont install until all files are copied over
[01:48] <ceil420> craigbass1976, i don't know the answer to your question. i tried :x

[01:49] <craigbass1976> Beriant, I didn't see it.  Anyway, when you create the launcher (you stuck it on your desktop or something?) there's a "Run in Terminal" check box.
[01:49] <mrigns> !love
[01:49] <Pirate_Hunter> hi people can you tell me how to format my slave disk as I cant find disk manager on Feisty compared to Drapper?
[01:49] <ubotu> Love is like racing across the frozen tundra on a snowmobile which flips over, trapping you underneath. At night, the ice-weasels come.
[01:49] <ceil420> lol
[01:49] <ceil420> !botsnack
[01:49] <ubotu> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[01:49] <craigbass1976> Beriant, I don't know how to do this once the launcher is created, as I can't find the damned box
[01:50] <kados_> TWIZTEDbytheloop : yeah.... its fsck
[01:50] <sudobash> prick isnt a bad word
[01:50] <Sam330> How do I install Ubuntu on my Win2k computer and use GRUB to dual boot and do I need the Alternate Install CD?
[01:50] <sudobash> hey should it be pretty easy to install ubuntu 7.04 on an imac that has osx on it?
[01:50] <Beriant> craig,im not seeing where to to check run in terminal,i double clicked it and it does nothing
[01:50] <d4rkmonkey> o_O what was the 2nd ubuntu release?
[01:50] <Beriant> craig,and im not seeing it in properties

[01:51] <Pirate_Hunter> hi people can you tell me how to format my slave disk as I cant find disk manager on Feisty compared to Drapper?
[01:51] <craigbass1976> Beriant, during the process, you'll see that checkbox right on the fron page
[01:51] <ceil420> d4rkmonkey, i think Hoary was the fourth; i don't know any earlier than that
[01:51] <Beriant> craig,how do i do that lol,im very new to this linux thing
[01:51] <hatem> its just for tring

[01:51] <d4rkmonkey> dapper was the fourth according to ubotu
[01:51] <d4rkmonkey> never heard of hoary guess thats it
[01:51] <craigbass1976> I fdisk /dev/hdb and delete hdb5.  Write out to partition table.  Recreate it, write out to partition table.  Try to mkfs.ext3 /dev/hdb5 and get "/dev/hdb5 is apparently in use by the system; will not make a filesystem here!"  reboot (because I remember seeing a note about rebooting in fdisk) and now I get the same thing.  Mount -t ext3 /dev/hdb5 gives me "mount: /dev/hdb5 already mounted or /mnt busy"
[01:51] <Pirate_Hunter> cna someone please help me out... please
[01:51] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> we`ll problem with that it ain`t on the sys cmd
[01:51] <ceil420> oh, i thought dapper was fifth, then edgy, then feisty
[01:51] <craigbass1976> Beriant, do you IM?
[01:51] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: how to format your slave drive?
[01:51] <d4rkmonkey> yup, according to ubotu hoardy is second
[01:51] <Beriant> crag,ye ive got msn
[01:52] <ceil420> ah
[01:52] <kados_> TWIZTEDbytheloop : Windows CMD wont find the ext3 partition.... just a assuming
[01:52] <Ominous> when i go system --> preferences --> Desktop i get an error "The Composite extention is not available" how do i get it?
[01:52] <Sam330> Can anyone elp with my question?
[01:52] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: well how to format my other hd which will be used as a slave disk
[01:52] <craigbass1976> Beriant, I'm craigbass76.  Give me a holler there
[01:52] <datmony> anyone know if there is a way to recover a filesystem that had mkfs done on it?
[01:52] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: have you tried gparted?
[01:52] <pike_> Pirate_Hunter: sudo cfdisk /dev/hdb  or c or d or a   that is the tool for creating partitions. sudo -i then type mkfs and hittab a few times for all the mkfs.format commands then for example mkfs.ext3 /dev/hdb1  be CAREFUL with that make sure you are formatting the correct partition
[01:52] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> oh yeah ... me the n00b
[01:52] <Beriant> craig, @where?
[01:52] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: are you trying this from a live CD< or from an install?
[01:52] <pike_> Pirate_Hunter: that is the termial option i dunno gui tools very well
 what happened?
[01:52] <craigbass1976> On msn.  My email is craigbass76@hotmail.com
[01:52] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> we`ll then i will chack it out tomorrow
[01:52] <IndyGunFreak> !gparted | Pirate_Hunter
[01:52] <ubotu> Pirate_Hunter: GParted is is a !GUI partitioning program. Type  sudo apt-get install gparted  in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[01:53] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> for now i will get in bed
[01:53] <ceil420> does anybody know if it's possible to run the colour chooser widget from the shell, instead of opening a program like GIMP or Agave?
[01:53] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> thnx for the intel kaos_
[01:53] <John`> is there a program in ubuntu that can read mathcad file
[01:53] <John`> .xmcd?
[01:53] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: I thoguth of that but the problem is that Feisty has automounted it and I thought if i use gparted to change it to EXT3 it wont pick up cause it will look for the old NTFs, so is my theory correct?
[01:53] <John`> anyone experienced before?
[01:53] <Sam330> what is tha tothe rubuntu room? #ubuntu-class or what?
[01:53] <Beriant> craig,2secs its doing some weird shirt
[01:53] <fisherwork> ceil420: a, awesome that u smoke - me too.. and b, i think you can run any program via shell
[01:53] <pike_> John`: id check the forums or apt-cache search mathcad maybe
[01:53] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: can you unmount it?
[01:54] <John`> how do you apt-cache search?
[01:54] <ceil420> John`, i know there are cad programs in linux, but i don't think any of them are installed in ubuntu by default, and i don't know what file format they use
[01:54] <craigbass1976> Beriant, did I accept it?  Thought I did, but I don't see you online
[01:54] <zploskey> John`: type apt-cache search <whatever you're searching for>
[01:54] <ceil420> fisherwork, well i don't know the actual program's name; i know the GtkWidget name of it, but i don't think that'd work :x
[01:54] <John`> thanks
[01:54] <pike_> John`: open a terminal and type 'apt-cache search something' you can also search within your package manager (synaptic) if you prefer a graphical tool
[01:55] <ceil420> fisherwork, and tokers unite! ;)
[01:55] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: just to make sure I understand, jthe drive is currently NTFS, and you want to format it completely to ext3?
[01:55] <zploskey> John`: if you need help about commands a good place to go is typing: man <command>
[01:55] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: I cna but than how would I mount it, Feisty piked it up for me and once i unmount how do i format it; gparted has to be used in boot which is soemhting i dont want, there must eb a GUI function in feisty for formatting existing disks, Drapper had it
[01:55] <kados_> TWIZTEDbytheloop : You could reburn the install ISO
[01:55] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: yes you got it right
[01:56] <Ominous> when i go system --> preferences --> Desktop i get an error "The Composite extention is not available" how do i get it?
[01:56] <datmony> I have a drive that I mistakenly used mkfs on, thinking it was a different partition, is there a way to recover the data off of the drive now?
[01:56] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: well, i guess you could burn the gparted live CD...
[01:56] <ceil420>  GtkColorSelectionDialog <=- the GTK+ name for the colour chooser, but i don't know how to run it from shell :x
[01:56] <confuse_david> ibanex: no it diid not work
[01:56] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: its quite functional, i like it better than using the one w/ Ubuntu
[01:57] <confuse_david> ibanex: initially i saw the picture but then the original wallpaper came up
[01:57] <Kelden> Hello, I'm trying to install a dualboot XP/Ubuntu and cannot resize the XP partition
[01:57] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak :I already have it but that ahs to be run in boot which is nto soemthing i want to do, isnt htere an option inside Feisty to do this cause Drapper had it in systems but they seemed to have taken it out in Feisty
[01:57] <TrojanRabbit> ceil420: You can get a standalone program called gcolor2
[01:57] <fisherwork> Kelden: are you working in XP right now?
[01:57] <Kelden> gparted always fails giving no reason
[01:57] <vlt|home> Hello. Now I'm trying to install 7.04 on my notebook (using live cd). I'm missing the option "shrink ntfs partition, create new ones behind sda1 and install there ...". What can I do?
[01:57] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: oh, ok, now i understand what you're saying(i think)..
[01:57] <ibanex> confuse_david: hmm is it a default theme?
[01:57] <Kelden> no, i'm using the livecd
[01:57] <pike_> Kelden: id defrag from within windows first and try as IndyGunFreak suggested to Pirate_Hunter the gparted livcd
[01:58] <confuse_david> i want it to be
[01:58] <ceil420> TrojanRabbit, ah, thanks o/ looks like i don't have to bother the ##gnome guys after all :p
[01:58] <confuse_david> the default theme is a blue color
[01:58] <confuse_david> Ibanex: how did you get rid of your default theme
[01:58] <ibanex> confuse_david: you can right click on the desktop, then search around for themes
[01:58] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: in System/Admin, do you have a Gnome Partition editor option?
[01:58] <Kelden> pike_: does defragging usually affect repartition?
[01:58] <kados_> TWIZTEDbytheloop : What brand of burnable media do you have that you used for the linux install?
[01:59] <fisherwork> http://art.gnome.org is an excellent place for free theme stuff
[01:59] <ibanex> confuse_david: there should be a bunch... but i downloaded and edited my own and put it in ~/.fluxbox/styles/
[01:59] <Kelden> i guess it would, I never thought of that
[01:59] <fisherwork> all sorts of great login pages, controls, icons, etc
[01:59] <Kelden> thanks
[01:59] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak : nope havent got that? how cna i get it
[01:59] <deebus> where can I go for questions about wine?
[01:59] <slop> where do i find the configuration file for wine's menu entries in the Gnome Panel Menu?
[01:59] <ibanex> confuse_david: oops theme = styles
[01:59] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: sorry, i've had a long day..lol, sudo apt-get install gparted
[01:59] <confuse_david> yeah
[01:59] <pike_> Kelden: i have heard it suggested. i havent really resized myself im always too paranoid. i usually backup everything and make new ones. that isnt really feasable with xp though
[01:59] <deebus> running into some problems installing diablo2 with wine in dapper
[02:00] <ibanex> confuse_david: can you pastebin ~/.fluxbox/init
[02:00] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: lol but dont i have to run that in boot to be able to partition the disk which is what i dont want?
[02:00] <confuse_david> i can't write in init
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: no
[02:00] <confuse_david> ibanex. it won't all me
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> if you install it, you can run it from your installed OS, it should do what you want
[02:00] <ceil420> and does anybody know how i can set .txt files to open in Mousepad by default? i got an IDE the other day, and it's a wonderful program, but it seems to have made itself the default application for text files, and it's just too "big" for when i want to edit a simple .txt :x
[02:00] <ibanex> confuse_david: ?
[02:01] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: so your positive i can run that inside Feisty without having to be in boot, if you say that's correct ill try it
[02:01] <confuse_david> if i write in ~/.fluxbox/init. it won't save my written stuff
[02:01] <taa> hello
[02:01] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: i don't see why you couldn't.. only thing i've ever used ti for, was to format a USB drive so Feisty could see it, I can only imagine formatting a slave drive would be the same
[02:01] <confuse_david> i don't "have permision
[02:01] <ceil420> !hi | taa
[02:01] <ubotu> taa: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[02:02] <ceil420> you don't even have read permission? :o
[02:02] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: did that answer your question?... i hope i'm not confusing you more..lol
[02:02] <KuDeTa> !hi | daddy
[02:02] <ubotu> daddy: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[02:02] <confuse_david> there is nothing to read in the init but i can't write either
[02:02] <KuDeTa> !hi | ubotu
[02:02] <ubotu> ubotu: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[02:03] <ibanex> confuse_david: that should be owned by you :/.... sudo chmod 744 ~/.fluxbox/init
[02:03] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: lol  you're assuming but than it might be right, I'll try it out. However i dont understand why they took out the disk option which allowed formatting of hadr disks in Drapper, why didnt htey caried it forward to Feisty I cna't understand for the life of me. Yeah that answered my quetsion np
[02:03] <IndyGunFreak> ubotu is saying hi to himself.
[02:03] <ibanex> confuse_david: check the owner and group too...
[02:03] <vox754> Pirate_Hunter, I can tell you that everything IndyGunFreak has said is true.
[02:03] <r0bby> crimsun_: unping
[02:03] <fisherhome> what's the next official release called?
[02:03] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: lol, thanks for the vote of confidence
[02:03] <taa> i'm geting troubles running zope on feisty (googled it nok, no one replying from #zope chanel)
[02:03] <mrunagi> !bluebugger
[02:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bluebugger - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:04] <taa> i would like to know of some one can help me please
[02:04] <d4rkmonkey> !gutsy fisherhome
[02:04] <d4rkmonkey> !gutsy | fisherhome
[02:04] <ubotu> fisherhome: 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
[02:04] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: vox754 i honestly never noticed that gparted had been pulled from the installed versions of Feisty
[02:04] <Puppy_> Does anyone know if GStreamer is legal in the U.S.A.?
[02:04] <fisherhome> awesome thanks mate!
[02:04] <confuse_david> ibanex. now i can read
[02:04] <taa> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28426/ ERROR log files when i run runzope
[02:04] <Pirate_Hunter> vox754: np I just wouldnt expect to be downloading an external app to format my HD especially since it was available on the previous versions of ubuntu which is weird
[02:04] <MenZa> Puppy_: To my knowledge, it isn't, no
[02:04] <taa> please if you got any idea help me :"'(
[02:05] <ibanex> confuse_david: sudo chown yourusername:yourusername ~/.fluxbox/init
[02:05] <Puppy_> MenZa: So do you know if I can use something else? :)
[02:05] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, Pirate_Hunter, I noticed that right away, because I installed 6.06 and then 6.10 almost simultaneously.
[02:05] <IndyGunFreak> what is zope
[02:05] <MenZa> Puppy_: To decode mp3s?
[02:05] <Puppy_> MenZa: I am trying to play DVDs.
[02:05] <ceil420> MenZa, what's wrong with GStreamer? :o
[02:05] <IndyGunFreak> !dvd
[02:05] <MenZa> Puppy_: Ahh; you need libdvdcss2 for that
[02:05] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[02:05] <confuse_david> ibanex: ok
[02:06] <MenZa> ceil420: Nowt is.
[02:06] <IndyGunFreak> Ubotu is a genius
[02:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about is a genius - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:06] <Puppy_> MenZa: And is is legal in the U.S.A.?
[02:06] <ceil420> MenZa, so why wouldn't it be legal? :o
[02:06] <MenZa> ceil420: Because Intellectual Property is valid in the US (and the US only)
[02:06] <Mike2> Welcome back lightrush
[02:06] <MenZa> Puppy_: I don't know. Look at the link.
[02:07] <ibanex> confuse_david: can you write?
[02:07] <MenZa> Puppy_: I don't believe it is, for the same reasons as above
[02:07] <marmer> hy
[02:07] <Puppy_> MenZa: Thanks!
[02:07] <Pirate_Hunter> vox754: still it suprised me why they wouldnt carry it forward, it was such a handy tool and I bet i aint the only one who is thinking "what were they thinking by taking that off"
[02:07] <MenZa> Puppy_: Truth be told; it only serves as a disclaimer. The RIAA isn't going to knock in your door the moment you press 'Play'.
[02:07] <ceil420> MenZa, isn't it just a media player? :o
[02:07] <fisherhome> so i'd really like to get involved in Ubuntu somehow.. i'm an excellent graphics designer, i wonder if i can do some artwork
[02:07] <MenZa> ceil420: gstreamer? No.
[02:07] <confuse_david> now i can
[02:07] <MenZa> !gstreamer | ceil420
[02:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gstreamer - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:07] <confuse_david> ibanex: yep thanks
[02:07] <MenZa> hmm
[02:07] <IndyGunFreak> Puppy_: i don't think there's any libdvdcss police running around looking for you watching DVD's you've acquired(legally of course, illegally is probably different)
[02:07] <foxjazz> Hi all
[02:07] <MenZa> What IndyGunFreak said.
[02:07] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: did it work?
[02:08] <ceil420> MenZa, that's the impression i get from http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org :o
[02:08] <marmer> i'm looking for htdocs the direcroty of apache i can't find, neven give: $ find / -iname htdocs
[02:08] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: ive installed gparted where would i find it in Feisty
[02:08] <ibanex> confuse_david: np... also make sure your startup file is correct
[02:08] <Puppy_> MenZa: yeah. but it is not legal.
[02:08] <vox754> Pirate_Hunter, I thought the same! There are reasons for everything.
[02:08] <marmer> how can I find it?
[02:08] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: System/Admin menu
[02:08] <MenZa> Puppy_: True.
[02:08] <MenZa> ceil420: gstreamer is a set of plugins
[02:08] <IndyGunFreak> or you could start it in terminal gksudo gparted
[02:08] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: thanx
[02:08] <ibanex> confuse_david: it should be rwx rx rx or 755
[02:08] <MenZa> ceil420: Which allows you to play various types of restricted media
[02:08] <foxjazz> is there a movie editor for ubuntu?
[02:08] <confuse_david> i can write in the startup
[02:08] <ceil420> MenZa, oh, i see
[02:09] <confuse_david> and it saves
[02:09] <marmer> foxjazz: avidemux
[02:09] <confuse_david> but i just don't get the wallpaper
[02:09] <ceil420> MenZa, yeah, the MPAA probably wouldn't like that :x
[02:09] <Pirate_Hunter> vox754: I guess the makers of ubuntu move in mysterious way >:-)
[02:09] <ibanex> confuse_david: ok. restart fluxbox and see if you get it now that those perms are set correctly.. just for fun
[02:09] <d4rkmonkey_> XD I found one usefull feature of live search.. it can check my answers for algebra questions
[02:09] <marmer> somene help me?
[02:09] <Puppy_> MenZa: and everyone else. Is there anything we can do to make it legal. :) lol
[02:09] <MenZa> ceil420: Again; as long as you acquire your music legally, there's no problem with it
[02:09] <confuse_david> restart computer or restart with right click?
[02:09] <atrus> any thoughts on why nm-applet/network-manager connects fine to a wpa2 network, but not to a completely free-access open wireless hotspot?
[02:09] <MenZa> ceil420: The EU has rejected all suggestions about Intellectual Property so far for this very reason
[02:10] <MenZa> Puppy_: Nope. It needs to be decoded, and libdvdcss2 is the only thing that can do that.
[02:10] <ceil420> MenZa, lucky EU :x
[02:10] <MenZa> ceil420: I know we are :)
[02:10] <confuse_david> i will log off and log on. the restart with the right click does not work
[02:10] <MenZa> Puppy_: Besides, if there were other methods, they'd work the same way
[02:10] <CientificoLoco> how do I convert .avi to .(file for DVD)?
[02:10] <vox754> Pirate_Hunter, I remember I actually tracked the package and wanted to take a look at the changelog, but never did. You may try it.
[02:10] <Puppy_> MenZa: ok thanks.
[02:10] <MenZa> CientificoLoco: with mencoder, but I can't give you the specifics

[02:12] <m55> how do i apply a command to a bunch of files in a directory?
[02:12] <MenZa> m55: Such as?
[02:12] <Pirate_Hunter> vox754: i dont even know what the original package was called "All I know it was called soemthing on the lines of... Disk manager..",. Well am i the only one who didnt know gparted was now a partition up for Feisty cause it is great just like the live CD version. OH well im behind with the times and technology... I didnt think tat was possible at my age
[02:13] <woody_> wow, tons of people on here... could someone help me with an internet connection problem
[02:13] <m55> i want to do something like pnmtogif "original.pbm" > "original.gif"
[02:13] <woody_> specifically wifi
[02:13] <marmer> ?
[02:13] <ceil420> !wifi | woody_
[02:13] <ubotu> woody_: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[02:13] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: lol, i take it it worked?
[02:13] <woody_> oh I know, I found that, as well as a tutorial for my specific card
[02:13] <MenZa> m55: would require you to do a small script, as filenames obviously have different... names.
[02:14] <broedje> hm no ttyUSB0 device in my devs. want to bring up an CSR bluetooth adapter
[02:14] <woody_> but for some reason I am unable to blacklist bcm43xx
[02:14] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: Yeha but now I get read function only which is annoying, I need read and write facility
[02:14] <craigbass1976> I fdisk /dev/hdb and delete hdb5.  Write out to partition table.  Recreate it, write out to partition table.  Try to mkfs.ext3 /dev/hdb5 and get "/dev/hdb5 is apparently in use by the system; will not make a filesystem here!"  reboot (because I remember seeing a note about rebooting in fdisk) and now I get the same thing.  Mount -t ext3 /dev/hdb5 gives me "mount: /dev/hdb5 already mounted or /mnt busy"
[02:14] <vox754> Pirate_Hunter, gparted has been around before dapper, it was included in it. But the "disk manager" was some sort of applet or frontend, I can't recall.
[02:14] <spoop> I'm installing the nvidia drivers, where do i put NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.11-pkg1.run
[02:14] <Pirate_Hunter> vox754: see, very handy tool not just in boot
[02:14] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: read only?
[02:14] <MenZa> spoop: you run the file with sudo ./filename
[02:14] <[GuS] > spoop: where ever you want...
[02:15] <cafuego> spoop: Nowhere, just use the prepackaged drivers. 'sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx'
[02:15] <spoop> thanks :)
[02:15] <MenZa> spoop: If it says permission denied, do chmod +x <filename>
[02:15] <confuse_david> im back
[02:15] <broedje> any idea why one could have no ttyUSB devices?
[02:15] <confuse_david> it work
[02:15] <confuse_david> ibanex: it worked
[02:15] <MenZa> cafuego: I prefer the vanilla drivers myself
[02:15] <confuse_david> however
[02:15] <wastedfluid> Hi guys.  I was dual booting ubuntu+xp for awhile.  i finally said bye to windows.. removed hda1+hda2.  I tried booting off live cd and re-sizing hda3(my main partition) to add the other 40gb on it.. but the space is BEFORE hda3.  Any easy way to do this?  I couldn't figure out how.
[02:15] <vox754> !paste > confuse_david
[02:15] <confuse_david> if i right click and restarted, then i will get my blue screen.
[02:15] <confuse_david> ok
[02:15] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: I ahvent got permission to write anything to it, i need to gain full permission
[02:15] <cafuego> MenZa: They break on kernel updates and are really not useful for most people.

[02:16] <orbisvicis> anyone know how to set the region code to 0x00 ?
[02:16] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: did you have to enter your root password when gparted started?
[02:16] <ibanex> confuse_david: dunno... maybe it doesnt run that startup file. i need a nap, good luck
[02:16] <confuse_david> all right thanks for your help
[02:16] <ikro> hi cafuego, menza, ubotu and all now conecting..
[02:16] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: yeha why?
[02:17] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: just wondering, seems you should have permission in that instance.
[02:18] <MenZa> ikro: Hello
[02:18] <ibanex> confuse_david: np
[02:18] <ikro> =)
[02:18] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, Pirate_Hunter no what he means is he needs to edit fstab to gain permissions on the new ext3 partition
[02:18] <MenZa> !fstab
[02:18] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[02:18] <confuse_david> hey guys here it is http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28428/
[02:18] <spoop> i did sudo sh ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.11-pkg1.run and it says "can't open ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.11-pkg1.run"
[02:19] <MenZa> spoop: Do as cafuego says
[02:19] <MenZa> spoop: sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx
[02:19] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: wierd, i never had to do that, but i didn't install ntfs support either.
[02:19] <spoop> dunno if that will work for me
[02:19] <MenZa> Why?
[02:19] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: I aint going to mess with the permission in terminal just going to root nautilus ad give my group permission, much easier and cheaper :-). Well just going to leave owner ther same and give myself delete and access in group
[02:19] <MenZa> They're the same drivers
[02:19] <spoop> well i'll give it a try
[02:19] <MenZa> Sure. :)
[02:19] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: what are you doing, removing XP?
[02:20] <cafuego> spoop: the prebuilt ones will auto-update, less hassle from your end.
[02:20] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, you are slow today...
[02:20] <ceil420> - approximately 500 icons in SVG format <=- omg it's gonna take me a while to make an icon theme, innit? ><
[02:20] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: very long day..lol
[02:20] <foxjazz> how do you write a file to another disk.  Says I don't have access.
[02:20] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: nah cant do that the rest of the world that i knwo hate linux so i keep xp on a section of its won, i gave it 40Gb and most is filled with junk as well as company work but mostly junk
[02:21] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: i see
[02:21] <taa> Is there any tutorial about installing zope 2.x + python (seems like zope is python version dependant)
[02:21] <IndyGunFreak> i remember when I broke the chains of Microsoft.
[02:22] <Jamesinator> !nautilus > Jamesinator

I've tried chowning the mountpoints to root:smbusers, and chmod 755, but it reset to 755 straight away

[02:28] <euxneks> cweagans: wow uhm.. yeah I guess that's where my "help" ends then =P sorry
[02:28] <vox754> Pirate_Hunter, probably need to give an appropriate umask=002 (not exactly this one) in /etc/fstab  please do not put pressure on other people.

[02:33] <euxneks> oh err
[02:33] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: try this... if you're still in gconf-editor, go to Apps, Nautilus, Desktop.. and make sure "Volumes_Visible" is checked
[02:33] <euxneks> cweagans: looks like he gets errors
[02:33] <Toulouse> i just dont know how to use a makefile

[02:39] <Toulouse> i thought you mighta gone :)
[02:39] <MenZa> Toulouse: What is this you're trying to compile?
[02:40] <Toulouse> flash for linux
[02:40] <MenZa> Toulouse: Why?
[02:40] <Toulouse> it's a flash development thing
[02:40] <MenZa> Aha
[02:40] <Toulouse> cause i dont want to buy flash
[02:40] <Toulouse> :)
[02:40] <MenZa> Ahh, Flash Studio

[02:40] <Toulouse> flash doesnt seem to run in wine

[02:41] <Toulouse> it seems that ive run into the point where i need to at least learn to use makefiles

[02:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about avant - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[02:42] <bruenig> why would you get a mac
[02:42] <mrunagi> right but i cant find anything on it
[02:42] <Toulouse> mac's are the best
[02:42] <MenZa> Toulouse: f4l? two seconds
[02:42] <mrunagi> ubuntuforums doesnt recognize kxdockers
[02:42] <IndyGunFreak> crap is against channel policy?
[02:42] <bruenig> mac's are overpriced hardware
[02:42] <foxjazz> cause I can't run these programs in 64bit
[02:43] <Toulouse> macs are stable
[02:43] <mrunagi> do i have to have kde installed?
[02:43] <IndyGunFreak> Toulouse: so is linux..:)
[02:43] <thill2708_> hey, sysinfo does the trick
[02:43] <bruenig> if you intend to put linux on the box, there is no reason to buy a mac
[02:43] <Toulouse> true
[02:43] <bruenig> it is a waste of money
[02:43] <foxjazz> macs are 64bit right?
[02:43] <Pelo> mrunagi, look it up in wikipedia there is a link to the page ,  maybe it's kxdocker with no s
[02:43] <thill2708_> they should use this instead of device manager for ""Hardware infromation"
[02:43] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: i agree 100%
[02:43] <Toulouse> foxjazz: some are
[02:43] <mrunagi> i see it in snaptycs

[02:43] <foxjazz> non of the software works right in 64bit
[02:43] <Pelo> bruenig,  maybe he wants decent looking hardware
[02:44] <Toulouse> haha
[02:44] <Toulouse> pretty white hardware
[02:44] <mrunagi> silver
[02:44] <b^j> i'm trying to diagnose a bluetooth issue, does anyone know a good irc channel for phones?
[02:44] <thill2708_> thanks
[02:44] <foxjazz> is there a way to recompile repositories?
[02:44] <mrunagi> wikipedia came back with nothing
[02:44] <mrunagi> pelo
[02:44] <Pelo> Toulouse,  not that I like the current batch but apple has always had an eye for design in their products
[02:44] <IndyGunFreak> foxjazz: there's a lot of PC's that are 64bit, to me, Linux just isn't there yet(at least Ubuntu isn't)
[02:44] <Pelo> mrunagi, hold on
[02:44] <mrunagi> k
[02:44] <Toulouse> pelo: true dat
[02:44] <MenZa> Toulouse: Hmm; it appears these are kdevelop files, which I know barely anything about, but let me poke around.
[02:45] <MenZa> IndyGunFreak: It's getting there :)
[02:45] <Toulouse> kk, thanks menza
[02:45] <IndyGunFreak> MenZa: yeah..
[02:45] <Pelo> mrunagi, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KXDocker
[02:45] <foxjazz> I don't just want a pc that's 64bit I want the software compiled that way
[02:45] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: nope nada im going to try soemthing once i find it but its not picking it up in places even knowing i cna see it in media and it wont put it on desktop as well, dam i hate when this happens
[02:45] <mrunagi> ty
[02:45] <cweagans> can anyone recommend a video editor for ubuntu?
[02:45] <bruenig> avidemux
[02:46] <foxjazz> cweagans: not if you have 64bit
[02:46] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: wierd, i have no idea why that is.
[02:46] <Toulouse> cweagons: use cinerrela
[02:46] <IndyGunFreak> i don't have it set to see my hard drives on my desktop,
[02:46] <newb_prob> sudo apt-get install xchat gives me: WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated! xchat-common xchat
[02:46] <mrunagi> pelo do i have to have kde installed?
[02:46] <MenZa> I have absolutely no idea, Toulouse.
[02:46] <MenZa> Sorry.
[02:46] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak, neither do i going to try somehting when I find what im looking for, you might be able to help me afterwards
[02:46] <Toulouse> thanks anyways
[02:46] <Pelo> mrunagi, donT' think so but it will install the dependencies it needs if any
[02:47] <Toulouse> hmm... i'll go looking for f4l somewhere else
[02:47] <PriceChild> cweagans, kino?
[02:47] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: lol, don't get your hopes up..lol
[02:47] <Toulouse> Anyone know of any flash developing tools for linux???
[02:47] <mrunagi> oh i dont mind as long as it doesnt mess with gnome becuase i dont like kde
[02:47] <MenZa> Toulouse: try apt-cache search flash
[02:47] <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 my /etc/fstab is here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28430/
[02:47] <bruenig> Toulouse, none
[02:48] <Toulouse> bruenig: wrong, flash for linux
[02:48] <fabiovalinhos> cweagans: diva  http://nq6.blogspot.com/2007/05/diva-um-exelente-editor-de-video-do.html
[02:48] <cweagans> fabiovalinhos: does that work on 64bit?
[02:49] <Pelo> mrunagi, I've just read that awn works best if you have compiz running , so ... you mght want to try and turn on he desktop effects
[02:49] <fabiovalinhos> cweagans: i don't know..i saw the same question like your in the Ubuntu forum Brasil
[02:50] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: you still around?
[02:51] <kkrusty> what package should i install to get qmake-qt4?
[02:51] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: yup
[02:51] <newb_prob> a bunch of packages I want to install can not be authenticaed ... why?
[02:51] <atomiku> I'm bored of gnome-terminal. What other terminal apps are out there? maybe one with cool colors or someshit

[02:53] <clever> im thinking of installing a minimal ubuntu to a usb harddrive
[02:53] <clever> then putting the drive into another pc(laptop) and using it there
[02:54] <clever> since the target pc lacks cd booting
[02:54] <mrunagi> pelo i ahve desktop effects running but ubuntu wont run kxdocker it says it probably crashed
[02:54] <clever> would ubuntu get upset much from changing the hardware it was installed into?
[02:54] <Invisionfree> [AMSG] Thuger50: PM me please if you read this.
[02:54] <apollo> msb
[02:54] <Pelo> mrunagi, that,s the best I can do for you
[02:54] <apollo> msn
[02:55] <gdb> clever: not really, no
[02:55] <clever> i'll try the smart boot manager first though
[02:55] <clever> that might work best
[02:55] <gdb> clever: no more than the live CD gets upset when you move it from one machine to another
[02:55] <mrunagi> so all u did was aptitude install and ran it and it worked for u?
[02:55] <clever> i was going to do a full install to a laptop drive in a usb enclosure
[02:55] <clever> using a desktop pc
[02:56] <clever> then move the drive into a real laptop
[02:56] <Lounge> i am convinced that googles picasa for linux is a backdoor for microsoft to slither in and eventually take over. after seeing picasa run a wine emulated explorer.exe? yeah
[02:56] <jeremysandau> Can somebody help me find the ubuntu link to set up wireless networking?
[02:56] <clever> !wifi
[02:56] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[02:56] <MajorPayne> Isn't there a way he could boot from a floppy (Assuming he has a floppy drive).
[02:56] <kkrusty> did anyone get my question? Where can i get qmake-qt4? qt4-dev-tools?
[02:56] <clever> MajorPayne: yes it does have an external floppy drive
[02:56] <Pirate_Hunter> Cheesepirate: lol but i deserved it for that
[02:57] <Cheesepirate> !games
[02:57] <clever> MajorPayne: the smartbootmanager is put onto a floppy and then can boot cd's from that
[02:57] <ubotu> Information about games on Ubuntu can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php and ubuntugames.org
[02:57] <CppIsWeird> is there any jabber client that does a photo-sharing thing like yahoo messanger?
[02:57] <Cheesepirate> !Xorg7.4
[02:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xorg7.4 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:57] <Cheesepirate> so out of touch , man
[02:58] <MajorPayne> clever: I never created a boot floppy before so I can't help you.  But that may be easier.
[02:58] <Cheesepirate> you androids will never catch up with my moxious self
[02:58] <clever> my first thing is to clean the drive out of any data i may want
[02:58] <create> anyone familiar with problems installing ubuntu 7.04 on a amd x86 machine ?
[02:58] <clever> and find the usb enclosure for that

[02:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cheesepirate - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:59] <Cheesepirate> man.. you need to give this kid some glasses
[03:00] <mrunagi> why do programs in linux have to be so difficult to run
[03:00] <MajorPayne> clever: The processor will not be a problem, but something else on the system may be.
[03:00] <pete_> mrunagi: because it's more fun that way
[03:00] <Cheesepirate> help ? been around since 3.10
[03:00] <|Jason8|> Hey all.  When I have three programs open in Ubuntu (Doesn't matter which programs, just any three), my system hangs and requires a reboot by power button.  Any idea as to why it would do this?  I have plenty of memory when it happens, and swap space is not a factor.
[03:00] <Ha1> Hey all
[03:00] <CppIsWeird> mrunagi, apparently you haven't used vista yet.
[03:00] <mrunagi> its not fun for me
[03:00] <jarrod> if instructions tell you to compile to a directory you don't have do you typically make it?
[03:00] <mrunagi> vista works fine for me
[03:00] <MajorPayne> clever: Try searching some of the Linux on laptop sites for your system.
[03:00] <Sonic1> ew
[03:00] <Sonic1> vista
[03:00] <Sonic1> nasty
[03:00] <tck> anyone use a SATA laptop hard drive?
[03:01] <mrunagi> 99% of the time when it says to ./compile or whatever or make isntall
[03:01] <mrunagi> i get an error
[03:01] <mrunagi> why??
[03:01] <CppIsWeird> pfft, 15 years of windows, 5 hours of vista, and im a linux user.
[03:01] <bruenig> mrunagi, because you don't have the proper dependencies installed
[03:01] <IndyGunFreak> mrunagi: you probably have dependency issues
[03:01] <Sonic1> hehe
[03:01] <pete_> mrunagi: you have to install the comiler and the libraries of code that the program needs
[03:01] <kkrusty> does anyone know where i can get qmake-qt4? I seem to have qmake-qt3 already but cant get qmake-qt4.
[03:01] <mrunagi> i guess that would make sense but when i follow a post exactly as they have it and it works for everyone but me
[03:01] <mrunagi> that doesnt make sense
[03:02] <pete_> mrunagi, just use the Add/Remove Programs menu
[03:02] <Pirate_Hunter> mrunagi: its due to dependencies, compared to .deb that will get them for you rpm or whatever will ask you to download it yourself. You need to reed the screen it tells you most of the times
[03:02] <jarrod> if instructions tell you to compile to a directory you don't have do you typically make it? and then what is the cmd to use a make file to compile to a new directory?
[03:02] <CppIsWeird> mrunagi, trust me, just calm down and take things slow. i made the mistake of expecting linux to do everything that windows did... but you will eventually learn to drop your windows expectations for linux and figure out that linux does things much better.
[03:02] <rustalot> where can I get a comprehesive guide to the CLI  that goes from zero to grep/sed/awk/cut/shell scripting
[03:02] <Ash`> 1039 users.
[03:02] <Ash`> omg.
[03:02] <Kitar|st> ok
[03:02] <mrunagi> im not translating windows over to linux except its hard not to seek out an install.exe
[03:02] <|Jason8|> Hey all.  When I have three programs open in Ubuntu (Doesn't matter which programs, just any three), my system hangs and requires a reboot by power button.  Any idea as to why it would do this?  I have plenty of memory when it happens, and swap space is not a factor.
[03:02] <mrunagi> but when nothing works as its suppose to its hard
[03:02] <IndyGunFreak> Ash`: sorry, its a slow day.. we get around 1300 a lot of times
[03:03] <CppIsWeird> yeah, its nice having everything in nice little packages
[03:03] <clever> MajorPayne: the cpu in the target pc is about 50mhz but the bogomips i got off a boot floppy awhile ago put it at 80mhz maybe
[03:03] <foxjazz> how do you get a mac address?
[03:03] <Ash`> 1300? @_@
[03:03] <clever> MajorPayne: 486 cpu
[03:03] <Kitar|st> Windows : making stupid people to think they are smart Linux : making smart people to think they are stupid
[03:03] <pete_> mrunagi: use synaptic package manager
[03:03] <Kitar|st> ahaahah
[03:03] <kkrusty> Ash`: yeah and no ones even noticing my question
[03:03] <Kitar|st> lolz
[03:03] <Ash`> ahah
[03:03] <bruenig> mrunagi, installing from source is actually fairly easy
[03:03] <mrunagi> i did
[03:03] <Ash`> im bored
[03:03] <mrunagi> it didnt work
[03:03] <Ash`> so im going to random channels >>
[03:03] <IndyGunFreak> kkrusty: conspiracy
[03:03] <mrunagi> i cant get kiba to work i cant get awn to work i cant get kxdocker to work
[03:03] <Ash`> i don't know anything about ubuntu
[03:03] <Ash`> so
[03:03] <Kitar|st> it rox
[03:03] <IndyGunFreak> !offtopic | Ash`
[03:03] <ubotu> Ash`: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[03:03] <Kitar|st> its fast
[03:03] <Cheesepirate> INTRUDER
[03:03] <CppIsWeird> mrunagi, linux is built on top of applications, one person makes something, another person makes something on top of that and so on and so forth, it gets rather complicated, but ubuntu has a nice packageing system, not to mention debian packages are awesome.
[03:03] <bruenig> mrunagi, when you do ./configure, it will give you an error message telling you what the issue is
[03:03] <foxjazz> it's nice when you get good programs.
[03:03] <Cheesepirate> BLEEP BLEEP
[03:03] <Kitar|st> eheh
[03:03] <Kitar|st> eheh
[03:04] <MajorPayne> clever: Ohh.  How much ram does it have?  On hardware like that you may have a problem getting the xserver to work.
[03:04] <kkrusty> IndyGunFreak: I knew it!
[03:04] <Ash`> J_J my brain is exploding with all of these messages
[03:04] <IndyGunFreak> :)
[03:04] <jarrod> if instructions tell you to compile to a directory you don't have do you typically make it? and then what is the cmd to use a make file to compile to a new directory?
[03:04] <clever> MajorPayne: about 20mb with the expansion
[03:04] <clever> MajorPayne: win98 wont install
[03:04] <clever> MajorPayne: 95 wont even install without the expansion chip
[03:04] <IndyGunFreak> clever: i'd consider that a blessing
[03:04] <Cheesepirate> Ash` go download ubuntu. youll feel better\
[03:04] <clever> IndyGunFreak: i know:P
[03:04] <clever> i have about 3 of those laptops
[03:04] <clever> 2 of them have grey scale displays:P
[03:04] <CppIsWeird> dude, i want win98 on a vm in my linux box... i think thats what im going to do tommorrow. :P dig out my win98 CD. :P
[03:05] <clever> only 1 even has a cd
[03:05] <Cheesepirate> how about windows 3.1 ?
[03:05] <IndyGunFreak> CppIsWeird: why?
[03:05] <Slipstreaminsano> quick one guys, how do i enable my keyboard to be used as a mouse?
[03:05] <bruenig> windows bob
[03:05] <CppIsWeird> IndyGunFreak, why not?
[03:05] <decious> has anyone gotten mathml to work 100% in mozilla, I have installed all the fonts, and the torture test looks OK, but there are still sites that complain that the fonts are installed
[03:05] <IndyGunFreak> CppIsWeird: lol, ok.
[03:05] <Pirate_Hunter> |Jason8|: hre my suggestions; virus, incompatible hardware "unprobable, unless were tlaking 64x", not enough disk space, your disk is messed up like mine was the first time a burnt ubuntu or your not reading the screen properly so you're not picking up crucial intructions which you aint activating... choose one
[03:05] <foxjazz> anyone know how to get the mac address?
[03:05] <decious> mozilla ie firefox
[03:05] <IndyGunFreak> CppIsWeird: i thought maybe you had a specific reason.
[03:05] <bruenig> foxjazz, ifconfig
[03:05] <foxjazz> kk
[03:05] <pete_> Slipstreaminsano: a keyboard is a bit big to be sliding across your desk all the time
[03:06] <create> i ma trying to install ubuntu on an amd sempron 3000+ with 1028mb of ram, and it is impossible for me to install using the live cd, and when installing with the text mode disc, after installing it is horribly slow at the login screen and after login, the desktop never loads... anyone have any ideas ?
[03:06] <CppIsWeird> IndyGunFreak, nah, just to bring back memories... and by memories i mean lots of freezes and blue screens and NO usb support. :P
[03:06] <Pirate_Hunter> Kitar|st: I like your theory about windows and linux
[03:06] <|Jason8|> Pirate_Hunter, okay.  I'll check for viruses.  It worked for about a month and a half on this install no problems.
[03:06] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: lol, I'll take "My disk is messed up like yours", for $100
[03:06] <create> err 1280mb
[03:06] <clever> pete_: ii found optiosn in win95 and up to use the keyboards numberpad as a mouse
[03:06] <IndyGunFreak> CppIsWeird: i've buried those memories, along with all the software i've bought over the years
[03:07] <CppIsWeird> lol
[03:07] <Slipstreaminsano> Ubuntu Fiesty, Live CD, in Gnome - how do i get the keybaord to be used as a mouse, i've got that bug where i can't use the mouse, but i need to be able to install first so i can patch it
[03:07] <bruenig> you bought software?
[03:07] <bruenig> even when I used windows I never bought software
[03:07] <pete_> to use the keyboard as a mouse, go to System>>preferences>>accessibility>>keyboard accessability
[03:07] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: huh???
[03:07] <IndyGunFreak> Slipstreaminsano: alternate install maybe?
[03:08] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: i was just kidding, you were giving him a "take your pick" of things that could be wrong, so i jeoprdized it, and chose the one i wanted..lol
[03:08] <mrunagi> make[1] : *** No rule to make target `../avant-preferences/avant-preferences.py', needed by `avant-window-navigator.pot'.  Stop.
[03:08] <pete_> and enable mouse keys
[03:08] <PriceChild> Slipstreaminsano, ctrl alt numlock or something lets you use the numpad... not sure exactly
[03:08] <mrunagi> what does that mean
[03:08] <Slipstreaminsano> pete_ -- cheers bro
[03:08] <Slipstreaminsano> <PriceChild - cheers :)
[03:08] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: now that i think about it, maybe you've never saw jeopardy, so it might not make sense to you
[03:08] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak@ rofl i litteraly understood that but my brain just could input it properly its just late way late for me
[03:08] <datmony> I am hoping someone can help me recover some data, I accidently did MKFS on the wrong drive and over wrote the file system, I am not worried about the file system itself, I just want the data off that drive.  How do I recover it?
[03:08] <PriceChild> Slipstreaminsano, needs a ctrl+alt+shift+numlock
[03:09] <PriceChild> Slipstreaminsano, with the numlock _on_
[03:09] <CppIsWeird> is there any jabber client that does a photo-sharing thing like yahoo messanger?
[03:09] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: lol, np
[03:09] <MajorPayne> clever: I am not sure of the hardware requirements.  But I don't think xserver will work.  Ubuntu will still install but no Gnome/KDE.
[03:09] <PriceChild> Slipstreaminsano,
[03:09] <quinton_> Need help changing beggining boot theme (loading bar)
[03:09] <clever> MajorPayne: yeah
[03:09] <PriceChild> Slipstreaminsano, 0 is then left click
[03:09] <Slipstreaminsano> PriceChild - yeah working now, thanks mate
[03:09] <mrunagi> what do you do after make install?
[03:09] <clever> MajorPayne: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LowMemorySystems
[03:10] <IndyGunFreak> mrunagi: i think after make install, it should be installed.
[03:10] <Pirate_Hunter> quinton_: serach art gnome and look at faq thats is the simplest instruction you'll need
[03:10] <mrunagi> then how do you run it?
[03:10] <jeremysandau> Hi there, can anybody tell me how to install NDISwrapper ?
[03:10] <IndyGunFreak> mrunagi: look in yoru menus, see if it has a menu entry.

[03:10] <Senesence> How do I change the default icon for an entire filetype?
[03:10] <quinton_> pirate_hunter, what is art gnome?
[03:10] <Pirate_Hunter> jeremysandau: automatix has that app available much simpler downlaod it have fun
[03:10] <bruenig> quinton_, art.gnome.org
[03:11] <jeremysandau> thank you pirate_hunter
[03:11] <Pirate_Hunter> quinton_: website for ubuntu themes
[03:11] <fisherhome> so i'm looking for an interesting read, a good resource for mastering the terminal.. anybody have any good recommendations of tutorials or whatever to become great with Ubuntu terminal commands?
[03:11] <bruenig> !automatix | Pirate_Hunter jeremysandau
[03:11] <ubotu> Pirate_Hunter jeremysandau: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[03:11] <ant-> !automatix | jeremysandau
[03:11] <mrunagi> ok there it is but when i click on it it does nothing
[03:11] <doctorow> I just rsynced my hard-drive to a new disk and installed it in a new computer, and now Rhythmbox can't find any of my music files. It sees my playlists, but when I click play, it just skips from file to file, unable to find any of the music. Any ideas? Thanks!
[03:11] <IndyGunFreak> !devil
[03:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about devil - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:11] <quinton_> pirate_hunter, you mean art.gnome.org?
[03:11] <Pirate_Hunter> bruenig: nope thats a myth its quite stable been using it from drapper to Feisty
[03:11] <bruenig> Pirate_Hunter, no its not
[03:11] <Pirate_Hunter> quinton_: yeah
[03:11] <PriceChild> Pirate_Hunter, please don't suggest automatix in this channel, especially when you can't spell dapper.
[03:12] <mrunagi> can someone tell me how to run awm
[03:12] <jeremysandau> ubotu, if you suggest that I don't use Automatix, how do you recommend I install NDISwrapper?
[03:12] <Senesence> !icons
[03:12] <quinton_> pirate_hunter, I'm not very good with tutorials could you guide me through?
[03:12] <ubotu> Want to see volume/trash icons on the desktop? Go to /apps/nautilus/desktop in gconf-editor (Gnome) or go to http://kudos.berlios.de/kf/kisimlar/tipsntrix.html#showtrash (KDE)
[03:12] <PriceChild> jeremysandau, have you read the wiki guides at all?
[03:12] <IndyGunFreak> quinton_: ?..lol, you can't read
[03:12] <MajorPayne> clever: Good luck with that.
[03:12] <Pirate_Hunter> bruenig: in my opinion i ahvent had a problem with it, i upgraded from Drapper to feisty with automatix still installed, uninstalled it, got the latets version and everything works fine np heer
[03:12] <bruenig> jeremysandau, that is a bout, ndiswrapper is in the repos

[03:12] <ubotu> Pirate_Hunter: 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.
[03:12] <PriceChild> !worksforme | Pirate_Hunter
[03:12] <clever> MajorPayne: thanks

[03:15] <IndyGunFreak> ant-: he just told me he's talking about before the sign on screen
[03:16] <bruenig> Pirate_Hunter, perhaps in the future, or you can tell him, I don't recall his nick
[03:16] <ant-> IndyGunFreak, he is talking about the screen with the loading bar...
[03:16] <mrunagi> Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[03:16] <IndyGunFreak> quinton_: you're not making sense,
[03:16] <IndyGunFreak> ant-: ok.
[03:16] <Pirate_Hunter> bruenig: yeha will do so thanx
[03:16] <PriceChild> mrunagi, did you build from svn or cvs or whatever they use?
[03:16] <quinton_> indygunfreak, its before the screen where you enter name and pass... it says ubuntu and has a orange load bar that fills, understand?
[03:16] <mrunagi> ./configure
[03:16] <IndyGunFreak> quinton_: oh.. i have no idea how to change that
[03:16] <bruenig> mrunagi, it will give you an error when you do that, paste the error
[03:16] <ant-> quinton, its called the splash screen
[03:17] <PriceChild> mrunagi, no where did you get the source from?
[03:17] <IndyGunFreak> quinton_: so its not your grub screen(which is the menu)
[03:17] <Shane-S> ohh is 7.04 a DVD or CD ISO?
[03:17] <mrunagi> what do you mean?
[03:17] <PriceChild> Shane-S, both
[03:17] <bruenig> Shane-S, you can get dvd or cd
[03:17] <mrunagi> i dled the bz.tar
[03:17] <IndyGunFreak> ant-: i thought splash was the screen that comes up after you sign on to the desktop
[03:17] <PriceChild> mrunagi, where did you download it frm?
[03:17] <mrunagi> and followed what the isntall said
[03:17] <PriceChild> ok right.
[03:17] <quinton_> indygunfreak, oh... the one that lets you choose a windows xp or ubuntu on a dual boot?
[03:17] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: he wants the boot screen from what i understand, the other option if the startup screen cause the boot screen cant be changed from my knowledge
[03:17] <IndyGunFreak> quinton_: yes, thats grub
[03:17] <ant-> IndyGunFreak, no its before gdm
[03:17] <PriceChild> mrunagi, have you read any of their docs online to see if that's a common issue on ubuntu?
[03:17] <iphv37> how do i need to install to see videos on net?

[03:17] <iphv37> *what
[03:18] <IndyGunFreak> lol, ok
[03:18] <bruenig> mrunagi, the install assumes you have all the necessary dependencies installed, when you run ./configure I can guarantee you it gives you an error, the error will tell you what to do, or you can continue to just "waaaa this doesn't work" and not give us the error
[03:18] <IndyGunFreak> quinton_: send me a link to whatever you downloaded
[03:18] <IndyGunFreak> this coudl be fun

[03:26] <jeremysandau> apt-get what?
[03:26] <orbisvicis> is there any equivalent ms publisher? ... i need to make posters & hallmark cards ?
[03:26] <jeremysandau> what exactly do i type in

[03:26] <hwilde> Does anybody know where I can locate the "Kvaser" canlib.h header file?  Looking for /usr/include/canlib.h
[03:26] <bruenig> jeremysandau, if you learn apt-cache search, you can actually find these things on your own and be self sufficient
[03:26] <pete83> jeremysandau: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.20-15
[03:27] <quinton_> pirate_hunter, theres more in that file than just that
[03:27] <bruenig> !find canlib.h
[03:27] <Pirate_Hunter> quinton_: thats from what i cna see from the website and im guessing it didnt come with instructions?

[03:28] <riksta> in feisty to get an 686 kernel rather than a 386, do i need to install any package?

[03:29] <Shane-S> can anyone help me troubleshoot 7.04 not booting in Virtual PC. 6.06 worked, and so did 6.10, so unsure why 7.04 keeps freezing
[03:29] <orbisvicis> ah ok .. hwilde i just discovered openoffice's from template which is hidden in ubuntu
[03:29] <pete83> riksta: at least, i didn't
[03:29] <riksta> pete83: cool so the standard kernel is 686?

[03:29] <PriceChild> riksta, -generic is a 686
[03:29] <quinton_> pirate_hunter I know it has a large .png that says gnome... Im not sure if its for the usplash screen or for the begging of when ubuntu loads your desktop
[03:29] <riksta> PriceChild: great, thank you
[03:29] <PriceChild> riksta, it loads optimisations on the fly
[03:29] <riksta> great

[03:35] <charliko> mongolai  thanks   trying to change the grub boot file

[03:37] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter:  quinton_ i'm gonna try installing sum on my laptop, if i bork it..lol, i won't be happy
[03:37] <mongolai> iphv37, try using sudo or gksudo and see if that helps
[03:37] <quinton_> indygunfreak, ok
[03:37] <Pirate_Hunter> iphv37: go to terminal and type sudo nautilus and than t=go to the folder you're trying to save and change the permission it is a better work around than trying to do permissions through terminal
[03:38] <charliko> mongolai   are those editors?
[03:38] <iphv37> mongolai, it's not possible because i'm not using the terminal to open the video!

[03:39] <mongolai> charliko, no, sudo and gksudo grant temporary root permissions in the terminal and for GUI programs respectively
[03:39] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: well, i have an elcheapo laptop that gets used and abused for stuff like this..lol
[03:39] <charliko> mongo  thanks
[03:39] <bruenig> mrunagi, ok so do sudo make install
[03:39] <sn0w> mrunagi, where is the error, also do just "make" not "sudo make" then after that "sudo make install"
[03:39] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: lucky you i envy thee
[03:39] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[03:39] <ant-> IndyGunFreak, are you using uspash?
[03:39] <mongolai> iphv37, try gksudo *programname* and then use the program to try to open the stream
[03:40] <IndyGunFreak> ant-: no
[03:40] <sn0w> usplash evil
[03:40] <awerner32> ok say i am ssh'd into a forgein computer how can i make an app open on that foreign computer and not on mine
[03:40] <quinton_> indygunfreak, how do I change the thing... uhm... when ubuntu has signed in and is starting to load your desktop the splash comes up... how do i change that?
[03:40] <iphv37> pirate_hunter, the problem is not with paths! but with a video i'm trying to see directly from net! i think i've installed some wrong streaming codec or whatever!
[03:40] <ant-> IndyGunFreak, startupmanager?
[03:40] <IndyGunFreak> ant-: yeah
[03:40] <sn0w> usplash claims to be able to do it, iv only ever had it completely remove it
[03:40] <mrunagi> bruenig http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28442/
[03:40] <Pirate_Hunter> iphv37: what ap are you using to stream that would be the first thing you must state
[03:40] <bruenig> mrunagi, ok all is good
[03:41] <sn0w> mrunagi, just run "avant-window-navigator" now
[03:41] <iphv37> mongolai, but why it starts to show this error while i used this way without problems?

[03:41] <sn0w> mrunagi, "avant-window-navigator &" to detach yourself
[03:41] <b^j> anyone know how to diagnose bluetooth issues? are logs made anywhere?
[03:41] <mrunagi> Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[03:41] <mrunagi> thats what i get
[03:41] <mongolai> iphv37, I don't know. Are you opening a locally-stored file ?
[03:41] <Pirate_Hunter> iphv37: try those sites for help it emans lots of reading but than it might be better than all of us giving you our opinions and confusing you
[03:42] <iphv37> pirate_hunter, i'm using totem and never got problems with that!!
[03:42] <bruenig> mrunagi, that is a program error, go ask the avant people
[03:42] <mrunagi> after all of that....thats ur answer
[03:42] <ant-> haha
[03:42] <sn0w> mrunagi, is there any other output you can provide other than just seg fault
[03:42] <PurpZeY> mrunagi: segmentation faults are on the software side
[03:42] <mrunagi> thats all it gives me
[03:42] <ant-> try recompiling it
[03:43] <bruenig> mrunagi, the question is offtopic, this is support for ubuntu not support for some crappy program you installed from source
[03:43] <sn0w> mrunagi, i have no idea, the compile looked like it went fine
[03:43] <Stormx2> mrunagi: Is it not available from the repos?
[03:43] <ant-> mrunagi, can you not get it from the repos?
[03:43] <PurpZeY> bruenig: Glad to see you are in the independent spirit
[03:43] <spirit_> ?
[03:43] <sn0w> yea it should be in the repos
[03:43] <iphv37> pirate_hunter, i dono what else i have to install to get it back working! and tired of those sites! i think i've installed something more that now do this!!
[03:43] <Pirate_Hunter> iphv37: doesnt totem have parent control? sorry thats just one of those things i thought of, if the film is like above an age group depending on how totem sees you it might not permit you to watch it. But that would be soemthing MS would implement so in a way its a question on top of a question
[03:43] <bruenig> now if it were a repo program, then yes that is another thing
[03:43] <spirit_> AH FUCK HIGHLIGHT -.-
[03:43] <mongolai> mrunagi, segfaults can be notoriously difficult to track down.
[03:44] <PurpZeY> !ohmy | spirit_

[03:44] <IndyGunFreak> hmm

[03:46] <lexus_nexis> normaly it would auto mount but nothing happened even after I restarted the comp
[03:46] <IndyGunFreak> of course, the one i downloaded is ugly as hell.
[03:46] <Pirate_Hunter> iphv37: are you streaming directly through totem caus eim online and it seems you cna stream through mozilla into totem
[03:47] <IndyGunFreak> quinton_: ok, the one you downloaded is it in .so format?

[03:47] <lexus_nexis> can anyone help me?
[03:47] <the_padawan> hi all. I am trying to enable midi playback. I have installed timidity, and ps -ef shows it running as "/usr/bin/timidity -B2,8 -Os -iAD". I have enabled all of the modules listed on ubuntuguide.org and they show up in lsmod. Kmid opens a file and "plays" it, but no sound comes from the speakers. Any ideas what may be wrong?
[03:47] <Invisionfree> I need a god movie player for Edgy, Totem is crap, it doesn't play my movies that are .mpg and others....Please

[03:48] <iphv37> pirate_hunter: it opens a window in firefox, but it doesn't starts the video!
[03:48] <Invisionfree> !mplayer
[03:48] <ubotu> mplayer is a media player. It resides in the mutiverse repository and can easily be installed via applications -> add/remove. For codecs try !codecs
[03:48] <IndyGunFreak> ant-: cuz it was to big a headache for something like that, i can deal with seeing "Ubuntu" as it boots up..lol
[03:48] <lexus_nexis> type in "alsamixer" and see what audio device the sound is enabled for
[03:48] <ant-> IndyGunFreak, it only took you five minutes
[03:48] <the_padawan> lexus_nexis: are you talking to me?
[03:48] <IndyGunFreak> ant-: lol, don't try to trivialize it..lol.. ;)
[03:48] <ant-> hehe

[03:48] <IndyGunFreak> quinton_: yes
[03:48] <mongolai> the_padawan, Ugh. I gave up on Timidity years ago. Do you still need to d/l and the sound-file pack?
[03:49] <lexus_nexis> yes the_padawan
[03:49] <ant-> IndyGunFreak, does startupmanager use .so files?
[03:49] <quinton_> indygunfreak, ok, so what did you do?
[03:49] <IndyGunFreak> although the one i downloaded makes rosie odonnell look pretty
[03:49] <IndyGunFreak> ant-: yes

[03:49] <iphv37> pirate_hunter: what i always did and always worked  too, is open it with totem, and then i saw it in fullscreen.. but now, neither one, nor other way!

[03:56] <mongolai> doctorow, sudo apt-get install linux-re....  the whole thing that I'm not gonna type again
[03:56] <quinton_> indygunfreak, give me 5 secs my kitten is in trouble =o
[03:56] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[03:56] <unique> gaten crontab
[03:56] <mongolai> I hope the kitten is OK
[03:56] <the_padawan> does anyone know of an IRC channel for linux midi?
[03:56] <gaten> lexus_nexis: so its a card reader you're trying?
[03:56] <doctorow> mongolai, thanks, but that package doesn't show up in the repos
[03:57] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: im guessing you're speaking to him on a different channel, if you're helping him i cna go to bed but have you fixed the theme issue yet
[03:57] <lexus_nexis> sorry I coulden't help you "the_padawan"
[03:57] <the_padawan> lexus_nexis: thanks for trying
[03:57] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: i wouldn't say "fixed".. i'm in the process of figuring it out.
[03:57] <gaten> unique: then it should be something like: 2 * * * *  user /usr/hello
[03:57] <Gonnascrewupmyla> Pirate_Hunter: this is my alter ego for right now..lol
[03:57] <lexus_nexis> im using the multicard reader right now
[03:57] <phreck> anyone running compiz-fusion on feisty?
[03:57] <gaten> unique: crontab needs the user name to run the command as
[03:58] <unique> gaten: what if i want something to be started on boot?
[03:58] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: kk next time i come on which will be soon cause i need to get my hd showing on desktop you cna tell me about it
[03:58] <unique> okay
[03:58] <gaten> lexus_nexis: so does the reader not work or just a specfic card
[03:58] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: okey doke, later
[03:58] <mongolai> doctorow, try the Add/Remove... program under the Applications and be sure to select all repositories.
[03:58] <Pirate_Hunter> Gonnascrewupmyla: huh?
[03:58] <quinton_> indygunfreak, back
[03:58] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: kk c yah
[03:58] <gaten> unique: you need to add a script to your init.d directory. theres a way to do it, i can't remember. someone here should though
[03:58] <b^j> anyone know anything about diagnosing bluetooth issues?
[03:58] <Gonnascrewupmyla> lol, supposed to be gonna screw up mylaptop..lol
[03:58] <ishock_> How do I fix this?
[03:59] <ishock_> How do I fix this?You do not have a decoder installed to handle this file. You might need to install the necessary plugins.

[03:59] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:59] <lexus_nexis> I had a 512 card that I usually use but that didn't work so I put in a fresh 64 mb sd
[03:59] <Gonnascrewupmyla> quinton_: http://web.telia.com/~u88005282/sum/installation.html go there, click downloads, and follow the instructions and download the current version

[03:59] <gaten> lexus_nexis: ok. put my name in front of your answers so i can see them better. so neither of these cards work in the reader?
[04:00] <lexus_nexis> it's weird the little light on the card reader and the multi flickers as if it was writing data to the card
[04:00] <ishock_> You do not have a decoder installed to handle this file. You might need to install the necessary plugins. <--- How do I correct this error?
[04:01] <lexus_nexis> I also unpluged the usb cable and plugged it into another usb port

[04:01] <Gonnascrewupmyla> ok
[04:01] <Invisionfree> You do not have a decoder installed to handle this file. You might need to install the necessary plugins. <--- How do I correct this error??
[04:01] <gaten> lexus_nexis: look up your card reader online and see if there are any issues
[04:01] <lexus_nexis> correct. none of the cards
[04:01] <quinton_> gonnascrewupmyla, down
[04:01] <quinton_> gonnascrewupmyla, done

[04:01] <lexus_nexis> it was always worked before
[04:01] <Gonnascrewupmyla> hmm, i'm trying to remember how to do the splash screen after you sign on.
[04:01] <Gonnascrewupmyla> anyways
[04:01] <Invisionfree> gaten, edgy and a .mpg
[04:01] <lexus_nexis> strange that it would start screwing up now
[04:02] <lexus_nexis> ohhh!!
[04:02] <lexus_nexis> I think I know why

[04:03] <Gonnascrewupmyla> quinton_: once htere, it will probably be obvious, but click appearance, then manage splash themes, then click add, and navigate to the .so file, then click close, and change the pulldown menu to the one you just added
[04:03] <lexus_nexis> for a few days now my computer would crash  and say something like dead I/O device, something to do with the read/write of the hard drive
[04:03] <lexus_nexis> I think my hard drive is slowly dying
[04:03] <Gonnascrewupmyla> then close it out.
[04:03] <quinton_> mhmm
[04:03] <Gonnascrewupmyla> it'll do a "updating something" for a few seconds
[04:04] <Gonnascrewupmyla> when you close
[04:04] <LouisvilleLIP> I wish mine would go so I'd have an excuse to buy a new one
[04:04] <quinton_> imgonnascrewupmyla, thank you
[04:04] <mongolai> lexus_nexis, yea, that might have something to do with it ;P
[04:04] <Gonnascrewupmyla> o, now that thats done
[04:04] <xjdriver69> mongolai: thanks, i just needed to recheck the apps i wanted.
[04:04] <lexus_nexis> from the start I think I had a foulty install of feisty because of this
[04:05] <Gonnascrewupmyla> i know i've odne splash screens, just can't remember how..lol
[04:05] <gaten> lexus_nexis: try scanning your drive w/ fsck from a boot disk
[04:05] <lexus_nexis> I wasn't able to run a program called nvtv so I could watch stuff on the tube

[04:06] <ishock_> .mpg is RESTRICTED?
[04:06] <bobgill> I am using Terminal Server Client to try to VNC into my networked XP box, but everytime I hit connect the remote desktop is just black, my mouse moves around but can't do anything on it.. i was VNC'ing in it earlier today tho :/
[04:06] <mongolai> lexus_nexis, use the live-cd and run fsck
[04:07] <mongolai> on the drive in question
[04:07] <ishock_> You do not have a decoder installed to handle this file. You might need to install the necessary plugins. <--- Very simple how do I fx it?
[04:07] <nightglider28> I believe restricted basically means the algorithm is not public, correct?
[04:07] <lexus_nexis> does ubuntu liveCD have fsck
[04:07] <gaten> lexus_nexis: you need to download a live CD, like the ubuntu install disk or something like system rescue. then you need to run 'fsck.ext3 /dev/hda1', where hda1 is the partition your feisty install is on
[04:07] <nightglider28> lexus_nexis: It does.

[04:07] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[04:07] <lexus_nexis> thanks
[04:07] <lexus_nexis> I'll do that
[04:07] <ishock_> gaten: You do not have a decoder installed to handle this file. You might need to install the necessary plugins. How do I fix that?
[04:08] <LouisvilleLIP> !fsck
[04:08] <ubotu> fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot
[04:08] <lexus_nexis> so if my HD is beyond repair chunk it ?
[04:08] <gaten> ishock_: look at what ubotu told you and check out those pages, they will tell you what to do
[04:08] <the_padawan> lexus_nexis: hi, fyi i found out the problem was that i did not set the midi port in Kmid, midi is playing for now but some instruments are missing, will look into it. Thanks again
[04:08] <ishock_> gaten, I did
[04:08] <ishock_> I don't geti t
[04:08] <gaten> lexus_nexis: i would backup any data you want quickly
[04:08] <lexus_nexis> ohh
[04:09] <LouisvilleLIP> is there a linux equivalent of ghost?
[04:09] <lexus_nexis> aww man this sucks
[04:09] <Jack_Sparrow> use dd
[04:09] <Jack_Sparrow> or tar
[04:09] <gaten> ishock_: read under the Ubuntu 6.10 section, it tells you exactly what to do
[04:09] <lexus_nexis> another days work of setting up my comp
[04:09] <mongolai> lexus_nexis, yea, be sure to back up the data from it before chunking it!!
[04:09] <hwilde> LouisvilleLIP, google ghost for unix it works pretty good

[04:09] <Hillview> LouisvilleLIP, g4l or g4u

[04:10] <lexus_nexis> hey on bright side I was thinking of adding builtin harddrive bay for easy access
[04:10] <LouisvilleLIP> did you defrag it first?

[04:11] <homerj> the defrag isn't TOTALLY needed, but it's a pretty good idea

[04:14] <LouisvilleLIP> ask your question

[04:14] <OhShitSon> r these all real users

[04:14] <IndyGunFreak> iphv37: pirate_hunter left

[04:15] <GreaseMonkey> gaten: i hear gcc is good :D
[04:15] <mneptok> OhShitSon: change nicks, please
[04:15] <LouisvilleLIP> DRK: Ask your question
[04:15] <melchior7> devc++ is for high school kids

[04:15] <DRK> LouisvilleLIP: Ok, I installed Ubuntu on an  ext. HD, 3 partitions on it...
[04:15] <IndyGunFreak> now pricechild is gonna be mean... :)
[04:15] <mongolai> oh, great.  Griefers
[04:15] <the_padawan> cotyrothery: sorry i don't know if anything has that
[04:15] <cotyrothery> i know dev-c++ does
[04:15] <mneptok> r0b-: thanks
[04:15] <nightglider28> gaten: Use vim, then. :P
[04:15] <the_padawan> cotyrothery: but gcc is very good, is there a reason you need a different compiler?
[04:15] <cotyrothery> for the psp sdk
[04:16] <iphv37> indygunfreak, ok..
[04:16] <gaten> nightglider28: i use nano. but liek i said, i think dev-c++ is the best IDE
[04:16] <GreaseMonkey> i find kwrite/kate work best for me in the way of editors

[04:16] <kelden> ok, my partition is unmounted, half-filled, and it still won't shrink even one meg
[04:17] <the_padawan> cotyrothery: my advice would be to just try a few and see if they've got what you need. As a fall back, an editor like Kate or vim can give you syntax highlighting and you can compile from the command line using whatever compiler you want
[04:17] <nightglider28> mezoko: Which version?
[04:17] <DRK> Crap...
[04:17] <dm> mezoko: The md5sums should be in the download directory.

[04:25] <Bogaurd> !kernel
[04:25] <danny> hi...is there some sort of device manager for ubuntu?
[04:25] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[04:25] <LouisvilleLIP> sensence: gnome or kde?
[04:25] <danny> because i have a crappy built in wireless card
[04:25] <danny> that doesn't work
[04:25] <Senesence> LouisvilleLIP: Gnome
[04:25] <soulrider> mneptok: do i apt-get it ?
[04:25] <danny> and i need to disable the driver
[04:26] <mneptok> soulrider: it's there by default. add it.
[04:26] <Fezzler> Can I install "K" applications in Ubuntu, like K-3d?
[04:26] <mongolai> danny, look into modprobe
[04:26] <mboman> How can I list what packages that has been installed that don't have a matching GPG key available?
[04:26] <mneptok> Fezzler: yes
[04:26] <danny> thanks
[04:26] <regeya> k3b you mean, Fezzler?  yes, kde apps will work anywhere.
[04:26] <soulrider> uhm, this one is no good for me
[04:26] <regeya> also, gnome apps will work in kde.
[04:26] <soulrider> i need tone where i can see upload and download separately
[04:27] <danny> also is there any way i can set a static ip for wpa?
[04:27] <bokan> I want to give a Kubuntu install a 10 gig or so partition but I don't want to lose any of my existing windows stuff.  I have two hard drives that have enough space, but both only have a single partition.  It seems like I should create a new partition table but when I do I'm pretty sure it will destroy any data on the existing single partition of the drive.  Any advice?
[04:27] <Fezzler> So KDE apps work under GNOME?
[04:27] <dm> GreaseMonkey: I think /boot is in the right place on /dev/sda1 ... but it seems to be mounted wrong (to /root) ... menu.lst looks quite normal: hd(0,0), /boot/vmlinuz... :/
[04:27] <regeya> one caveat: it may take a bit of extra time for kde apps to start up outside of kde.
[04:27] <mongolai> danny, see ifconfig
[04:27] <Fezzler> No K-3D
[04:27] <regeya> Fezzler: yes.
[04:27] <soulrider> bokan you can resize it
[04:27] <mneptok> dm: your filesystem, fstab, or menu.lst is screwed up. guaranteed.
[04:28] <mongolai> danny, i meant iwconfig...
[04:28] <danny> oh
[04:28] <dm> mneptok, GreaseMonkey: wtf did they do to the installer?
[04:28] <iphv37> mongolai, some links work, and other don't..
[04:28] <danny> thanks
[04:28] <Senesence> It's always the problems with "seem" simple that end up giving you the most trouble.
[04:29] <GreaseMonkey> dm: i don't know, i'm just using basic linux knowlege
[04:29] <iphv37> mongolai:i'll try some things!
[04:29] <GreaseMonkey> *knowledge
[04:29] <regeya> hmm, Fezzler I wasn't aware of k-3d so I'll have to check that out.  thanks!
[04:29] <mongolai> iphv37, can you send me a link that does, and one that doesn't
[04:29] <mongolai> oops
[04:29] <LouisvilleLIP> Sen: I haven't found it yet, but I have seen it recently
[04:30] <mongolai> i meant a /msg is fine
[04:30] <Bogaurd> has anybody successfully got ubuntu running with IFB support?
[04:30] <chrisjs169_> !dvd > chrisjs169_
[04:30] <mneptok> dm: "they?"
[04:30] <Senesence> LouisvilleLIP: Surely something as popular as Gnome has options for this sort of thing? I just can't find them.
[04:30] <regeya> ok, so k-3d is NOT a kde app, and the 'k' stands for nothing.  wonderful work.
[04:30] <dm> mneptok, GreaseMonkey: /dev only contains
[04:31] <dm> mneptok, GreaseMonkey: ooops ... console: /dev/console
[04:31] <mongolai> Senesence, GNOME purposefully obfuscates certain options.
[04:31] <mneptok> dm: are you at a recovery console?
[04:31] <GreaseMonkey> dm: it's screwed. try reinstalling
[04:31] <GreaseMonkey> oh

[04:33] <R0B-> even though i dual booted
[04:33] <R0B-> :P
[04:33] <Senesence> mongolai: How does "obfuscating" certain options make things easier......for anyone who actually needs that option?
[04:33] <jrsims> I want to be able to plug my LCD into my external video. And I'm not sure where to start.
[04:34] <iphv37> mongolai.. this one works! mms://espalhabrasas.sapo.pt/tvciencia
[04:34] <mongolai> Senesence, note my use of "easier" as being sarcastic. It's a problem that has been with GNOME for several years
[04:34] <gaten> mongolai: i totally agree

[04:37] <cescalante> nothing...
[04:37] <cescalante> screen goes blank
[04:37] <dm> mneptok: Yes, I know. The kernel tells me "access beyond end of device" when accessing sda1 ... that's why it can't mount it to the right place ... I'll knoppix and check ext3 ... brb
[04:37] <Sonic1> are you sure it's a correct nick you're using?

[04:39] <jettred2001> what is local alias??
[04:39] <mongolai> Senesence, GNOME takes a while to adjust to, but there are other options. KDE, or the smaller ones...
[04:39] <Sonic1> the same thing as your nick
[04:39] <jettred2001> thats what I thought
[04:39] <wastrel> i use gnome
[04:40] <mandrake> me too
[04:40] <Sonic1> I do as well! :D
[04:40] <Senesence> mongolai: How do I switch to KDE, from my current GNOME set up?
[04:40] <mongolai> I use GNOME nowadays, and actually like it, for the most pate.
[04:40] <dm> Any idea what to append to live cd's boot cmd to avoid checking for fd0? This takes hours of I/O errors on my notebook w/o one.
[04:40] <mongolai> Senesence, try sudo apt-get install kde-desktop
[04:41] <cotyrothery> please someone tell me how to change the compiler direction for kdevelop to /usr/local/pspsdk/bin
[04:41] <mongolai> ... or use Add/Remove... or Synaptic Package Manager

[04:43] <cotyrothery> Sonic1: do you follow the psp hacking scene
[04:43] <Nutubuntu> or ./checkinstall, which had some advantage over ./makeinstall, if I remember
[04:43] <Sonic1> Yes, I used to develop for the PSP
[04:43] <Sonic1> released a few small games for it
[04:43] <cotyrothery> really what did you make

[04:46] <mneptok> Nutubuntu: do you mean Scribus?

[04:58] <droglar> is there an easier way to install it bcmwl5.inf
[04:58] <gaten> jscinoz: did you change anything in the smb.conf file? what about the drives themselves, are they mounted as rw in /etc/fstab?
[04:59] <jscinoz> gaten this is the fstab line for one: //readynas/media /media/readynas-media smbfs gid=smbusers 0 0 is that correct?

[05:06] <jscinoz> yes, their identical
[05:06] <RustySford> hello anybody here good with vmac?
[05:06] <RoundyT1> how can i edit my grub menu to delete stuff out of it, so its not keeping all the other linux image files.
[05:06] <eternalswd> jscinoz, make sure you have proper permissions on the shares themselves, also the mountpoints
[05:07] <regeya> ;3~
[05:07] <gaten> jscinoz: i donno. here is the fstab line i use: //192.168.1.101/free /media/free_ cifs user,dir_mode=0770,file_mode=0770,rw 0 0
[05:07] <ericrost> I'm having an odd problem with Ubuntu when I insert a disc that contains both data and music. I checked the box that pops up asking what to do (Always do this) and said to browse the files, however, now it comes up and only mounts it as an audio CD (what I didn't tell it to do) and doesn't mount it as a data cd, any idea how to fix this (and get it to automount as a data cd)?
[05:07] <DShepherd> RoundyT1, edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[05:08] <jscinoz> if i try setting the owner to root:smbusers, and the permissions to 775 before mounting, the reset immediately,
[05:08] <jscinoz> the permissions dont stay in place
[05:08] <RustySford> ericost: did you make the disk under windows?
[05:08] <n3rrd> I just installed Ubuntu on my main machine and I'm having issues with my screen resolution.  Everything technically looks fine, but my monitor and video card are both capable of 1680x1050 and it's not giving me that as an option.  I'm running a 6600GT.  Any ideas?
[05:08] <jscinoz> gaten, smbfs and cifs have different fstab options.. thats why yours didnt work
[05:08] <RustySford> lol
[05:08] <RustySford> n3rrd: Just had that problem the other day
[05:08] <ericrost> RustySford: the disk is a windows disc, its Vampire: The Masquerade: Redemption's 2nd install disc
[05:08] <Nutubuntu> n3rrd you'll want to make sure that option is listed in xorg.conf, I would think
[05:09] <n3rrd> Just add another line with the resolution in it?
[05:09] <ericrost> I"m trying to install under wine, but if it doesn't automount, I can't get back to the desktop to tell it what to do
[05:09] <eternalswd> jscinoz, in windows, who has write access to the shares?
[05:09] <l_r> hello
[05:09] <RustySford> n3rrd: : yep
[05:09] <l_r> does beryl work on ubuntu?
[05:09] <jscinoz> eternal, all
[05:09] <n3rrd> I also notice that the wobble effects built into Ubuntu seem "laggy"... would it be a driver issue or is that just the way the effect runs?
[05:09] <dm> l_r: yes
[05:09] <RustySford> hmmm it may be using a file system that linux doesn't support
[05:09] <DShepherd> l_r, it does..
[05:09] <RustySford> not sure though
[05:09] <gRaCiOsO> gaten, i have still the problem i tryied with the driver of nvidia site and the problem is the kernel module but i dont know how to repair it
[05:09] <gRaCiOsO> could u help me with that ?
[05:10] <ericrost> RustySford: I was able to browse it the one time I mounted it, then when I reinserted it, it won't remount
[05:10] <l_r> what's the difference between beryl and compiz?
[05:10] <RustySford> I know I burned some .udf format dvds because the files wehre too big for iso and now can't read a lot of them
[05:10] <DShepherd> l_r, right now.. very very little :-)
[05:10] <l_r> so, is it worth to install both?
[05:10] <RustySford> ericrost: is this an image file or on the actual cd?
[05:10] <l_r> what would you suggest?
[05:10] <jscinoz> eternalswd, all users have write access
[05:10] <ericrost> RustySford: It's more a problem with the option I checked in ubuntu doing the opposite of what I asked, it can mount it, its just choosing to mount the music portion
[05:10] <BlackJesus> does it matter if i use the i386 installer instead of amd64 on a athlon 64 cpu?
[05:10] <demon_spork> n3rrd, in /etc/X11/xorg.conf see if that resolution is listed as a mode, if not, simply add it in exactly like the other modes are listed, substituting the desired resolution. The first one in the list is usually the default
[05:10] <ericrost> RustySford: the actual cd, retail
[05:10] <eternalswd> jscinoz, in your fstab, which entry is the one that you can't write to?
[05:11] <RustySford> no idea then that's really odd
[05:11] <ericrost> RustySford: just an old game I got the itch to play that I had sitting around
[05:11] <DShepherd> l_r, well right now.. beryl on ubuntu feisty... but that's my personal opinion
[05:11] <jscinoz> both samba shares
[05:11] <ericrost> RustySford: no idea where to dig that option up and reset it?
[05:11] <l_r> DShepherd, ok, thanks
[05:11] <dm> l_r: Didn't the projects join recently?
[05:11] <eternalswd> jscinoz, so you can't write to either one
[05:11] <RustySford> are you trying to install under wine? or do you want the data files for some other reason?
[05:11] <Nutubuntu> n3rrd,  it's overkill but it's also easy: backup xorg.conf first
[05:11] <DShepherd> dm, yes they did....
[05:11] <Flannel> dm: Feisty was released before they did.  So it's still beryl there.
[05:11] <n3rrd> demon_spork: thanks.  could you explain what "depth" means?
[05:11] <BlackJesus> does it matter if i use the i386 installer instead of amd64 on a athlon 64 cpu?
[05:12] <droglar> E: driverloader: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 what is this error please anyone
[05:12] <n3rrd> all the depths have the same three modes listed for them.  is that color depth?
[05:12] <jscinoz> eternalswd, yes neither
[05:12] <Nutubuntu> n3rrd,  yes, color depth
[05:12] <l_r> dm, i do not know. i see separate packages for the same thing. i only want one, either beryl or compiz. i have an intel 945 video card
[05:12] <slavik> I get no sound in Enemy Territory (nothing I found online was able to help). I get the "sound system muted" thing.
[05:12] <bruenig> droglar, the post install script failed
[05:12] <Flannel> BlackJesus: 32bit stuff will run on 64bit processors.  You're perfectly fine installing a 32bit system
[05:12] <droglar> what does that meaN
[05:12] <Dr_willis> I use32bit distros on all my 64bit machines.
[05:12] <Flannel> slavik: There are a bunch of things re: sound and ET in the forums (ubuntuforums.org), if that helps.
[05:12] <RoundyT1> Dr_willis, why?
[05:12] <Nutubuntu> BlackJesus,  there are actually some advantages to using 32bit
[05:13] <Dr_willis> RoundyT1,  why not.. what do i gain by 64bitness? Not a lot.
[05:13] <bruenig> droglar, there was a script that was included in the package, that was supposed to run after all the files got moved to their rightful place, that script errored
[05:13] <demon_spork> n3rrd, I don't really know, I just use the same depth
[05:13] <BlackJesus> Flannel:  i'm using the 32bit one right now, and windows dectects the cd, but when i tried to boot using the cd, i get an error saying there's no bootable software
[05:13] <Dr_willis> very little if any gain.. vs lot of issues  - ill stick with 32bit for the forseable futyre.
[05:13] <droglar> SO WHAT DO i NEED TO DO PLEASE
[05:13] <slavik> Flannel: so far, nothing helped ... maybe because my sound card is hw:3 ...
[05:13] <ericrost> Nutubuntu: there are a few compatibility issues here and there with amd64, the biggest being flash, but there are ways around it
[05:13] <fisherhome> i am also curious about this 64 bit debate.. i have one too
[05:13] <RoundyT1> Dr_willis, just wondering. never heard anyone's point of view really. haha. its cool. i was just curious
[05:13] <VIrUZ_> my ubuntu isnt ubunting right ...
[05:13] <bruenig> !caps | droglar
[05:13] <ubotu> droglar: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[05:13] <droglar> I get this erroe all thje tiome sorry
[05:13] <ericrost> Nutubuntu: I use amd64 on my box
[05:13] <bruenig> droglar, it depends on what the script does
[05:13] <dm> droglar: Don't scream at us.
[05:13] <Dr_willis> RoundyT1,  lots of little 'issues' with 64bit mainly.   its slowly gettting better..
[05:13] <RoundyT1> droglar, lol
[05:13] <droglar> I am sorry all for the caps didnt notice it
[05:14] <eternalswd> jscinoz, try setting dmask and fmask to 770 on your fstab lines
[05:14] <bruenig> droglar, if the script was not necessary, then you can just carry on, if it was necessary than that package will be unusable
[05:14] <RoundyT1> Dr_willis, ah. cool cool.
[05:14] <Nutubuntu> ericrost,  there is a downside to the 64bit version I found out about yesterday; it does not support fs > 1 terabyte ... not that I'm in need of that, but 32bit does, 64bit doesn't ...
[05:14] <gaten> gRaCiOsO: what version of ubuntu is this?
[05:14] <BlackJesus> does it still work if i burn onto dvd as oppose to cd?
[05:14] <droglar> shoulod i reinstall the os I get that error on eveyrhing I tyr
[05:14] <RustySford> soooo how bout that vmac help? anybody use it? or at least know what ya do with .sit format files to get them to load up without it wanting to initalize it?
[05:14] <mneptok> Nutubuntu: not to mention no Flash
[05:14] <eternalswd> jscinoz, so ...gid=smbusers,dmask=770,fmask=770
[05:14] <fisherhome> ironic bc 64 bit touts the benefit in terms of increased proficiency with large files
[05:14] <bruenig> droglar, for instance often times the post install script just does update-desktop-database to ensure that the program shows up in the menu automatically, this is not essential for it to work
[05:14] <droglar> that one was ndiswrapper
[05:14] <Nutubuntu> mneptok,  yes, that as well ;P
[05:14] <gRaCiOsO> gaten,  feisty fawn reciently installed and updated
[05:15] <mneptok> RustySford: .sit is a proprietary archive format, a la .zip
[05:15] <Nutubuntu> I'd be grateful for an explanation of what the different indicators mean in Aptitude - the flags at the left of the description of a package ... I just installed sun-java6-jre and it shows in Aptitude as i (installed) A (which means?) ...
[05:15] <ericrost> Nutubuntu: hmm.. hadn't heard that one, I'm planning on building a media server soon, I'll have to keep that in mind (not that I'd buy a big processor for the NAS box)
[05:15] <jscinoz> eternalswd, done and still RO
[05:15] <jscinoz> both remounted
[05:15] <gaten> gRaCiOsO: ok, then use the restricted driver management. that should work the best
[05:15] <demon_spork> mneptok, the thing about no flash is not entirely true, all you have to do is install the 32bit version of firefox and then install 32bit flash and you are good to go
[05:15] <n3rrd> if I remember correctly, there is a way to restart x without logging out, isn't there?
[05:15] <Nutubuntu> ericrost,  apparently support for fs > 1TB depends on a kernel compile setting that is not valid for the 64bit kernel
[05:15] <gRaCiOsO> gaten,  how could i do it ?
[05:15] <RustySford> mneptok: hmm well....then how can I get it into vmac. cuase it's supposed to be a disk image of some type
[05:15] <ericrost> Nutubuntu: ahh, good to know
[05:15] <droglar> what should i do go back to my 64bit I had less problems with that
[05:16] <dm> mneptok, GreaseMonkey: I did a reinstall (can't really believe it -- on a llinux box) ... And it worked! Maybe I did the partitioning too late last time and the installer had already decided where to put the files. Ok, thank you.
[05:16] <mneptok> demon_spork: not as easy as you make it sound
[05:16] <eternalswd> jscinoz, what permissions is it listing when you ls?
[05:16] <demon_spork> n3rrd, it logs you out, but you can hit alt+ctrl+backspace
[05:16] <gaten> n3rrd: ctrl+alt+bksp. but it will shutdown x and restart it
[05:16] <mneptok> dm: glad it's sorted
[05:16] <n3rrd> okay, thanks.
[05:16] <droglar> what should i do go back to my 64bit I had less problems with that
[05:16] <mneptok> RustySford: if it's a disk image it needs to be decompressed
[05:16] <gaten> gRaCiOsO: change your video driver to vesa in xorg.conf and then select restricted driver management from the administrative menu
[05:16] <BlackJesus> does it make a difference if i unzip the .iso and burn it onto a dvd?
[05:16] <mneptok> RustySford: got OSX or Windows around?
[05:17] <RustySford> got windows yeah
[05:17] <mneptok> RustySford: sec
[05:17] <RustySford> dual boot
[05:17] <gaten> BlackJesus: i don't know why you would want to, but if it has boot data i dont know if it will transfer over
[05:17] <RustySford> k

[05:17] <gRaCiOsO> gaten,  ok
[05:17] <n3rrd> woo.  thanks guys.  finally back at a reasonable resolution.
[05:18] <mneptok> RustySford: http://www.stuffit.com/downloads/emailform.html
[05:18] <BlackJesus> it's because i ran out of blank cds; last one i burned isn't recognized as "bootable" for some reason
[05:18] <n3rrd> I appreciate it.
[05:18] <RustySford> huu. when did stuffit get onto windows?
[05:18] <RustySford> I remember that from waaay back when I had a mac IIsi
[05:18] <Dr_willis> RustySford,  the good old days
[05:19] <gaten> BlackJesus: if it was from an ISO, try redownloading it or something. extracting and burning wont help
[05:19] <atrus> any suggestions as to how to connect to an open wireless point? i can connect to my wpa access point fine, but regular unencrypted open hotspots don't work
[05:19] <RustySford> back when I used to play legends of kyrandia
[05:19] <eternalswd> jscinoz, try setting fmask and dmask to 777 just to make sure it's not something on the other end.
[05:19] <mneptok> RustySford: like 10 years ago ;)
[05:19] <n3rrd> hm.  when I originally enabled desktop effects, it downloaded an NVidia driver.  Would that be the most up to date one?  I was going to install the one right from NVidia's site but it kept telling me I couldn't do it while in X.
[05:20] <demon_spork> n3rrd, if you install from the repository it will update with your kernel
[05:20] <mneptok> RustySford: Stuff-It ... .sit file ... get it? ;)
[05:20] <ans_> I installed a fresh copy of 6.06 and after boot up I log in and the screen goes a blank oche color and all that is there is the cursor (which is still operational), nothing else though. Any idea what would cause this?
[05:20] <Dr_willis> n3rrd,  use the ones from the repos.. thats the safest bet.
[05:20] <mneptok> n3rrd: use the packages
[05:20] <demon_spork> but if you install from the nvidia website, you have to reinstall every time the kernel gets updated, n3rrd
[05:20] <bronze> I'm using utorrent thru wine and at first everything was good but now I can't get the main window to open. The tray icon is there, and I can see that it's downloading but I can't open the window. Suggestions?
[05:20] <n3rrd> okay, cool.  just treading the waters still.
[05:21] <mneptok> bronze: don't use Windows crapware? ;)
[05:21] <n3rrd> The packages being like "linux-restricted-modules"?
[05:21] <jscinoz> eternalswd, it works now.. but i want just root and group to have write access, not everyone
[05:21] <mneptok> bronze: why uTorrent?
[05:21] <Dr_willis> bronze,  sure its not just opening and moved off to one side?
[05:21] <bronze> mneptok, uTorrent is the best torrent-client out there, and I need a GUI.
[05:21] <jscinoz> eternalswd, should 774 work for that?
[05:21] <gRaCiOsO> gaten,  im just losing my patient with this i did it i changed nv and i typed vesa there but when i try to run restricted driver management it said that my hardware dont need a privateves drivers
[05:21] <Dr_willis> I dont feel that utorrent is best. :) its very good however. :)
[05:21] <RustySford> cool mneptok: thanks..ya know if it works under wine? Stuffit I mean
[05:22] <Flannel> jscinoz: that'll be everyone can read.
[05:22] <mneptok> bronze: kTorrent? Transmission? Deluge?
[05:22] <ans_> I have a nvideo graphics card, does this cause problems with ubuntu. I feel like I've heard rumblings.
[05:22] <RustySford> just so I don't gotta reboot?
[05:22] <jscinoz> thats fine
[05:22] <mneptok> RustySford: no idea
[05:22] <Flannel> jscinoz: but yes, only owner and group can read/execute
[05:22] <jscinoz> i want everyone read, but only root and group write
[05:22] <eternalswd> jscinoz, could you read before?
[05:22] <jscinoz> yes
[05:22] <gaten> gRaCiOsO: is your card a fairly new nvidia card?
[05:22] <jscinoz> i couldnt right before
[05:22] <vafada> i accidently copied a file to /dev/sda1 (winxp partition) is there a way to recover that partition?
[05:22] <jscinoz> write*
[05:22] <gRaCiOsO> gaten,  not it is just a nvidia geforce 2 32 mb
[05:22] <bronze> kTorrent = KDE, Transmission = banned from some trackers, Deluge ? never heard of
[05:23] <RustySford> awww nope
[05:23] <mneptok> bronze: you can install KTorrent under GNOME
[05:23] <gaten> gRaCiOsO: so its old? look up nvidia legacy in the ubuntu wiki and see if your card applies
[05:23] <RustySford> it's gotta wrapper of some kind?
[05:23] <RustySford> k be back lata
[05:23] <demon_spork> bronze, first question, why are you using a windows torrent app? there are plenty good ones in linux
[05:23] <bronze> Dr_willis, I'm using beryl and I can't see it anywhere.
[05:23] <eternalswd> bronze, the svn version of deluge rocks.
[05:23] <jscinoz> Ok its messed up again, i changed fstab's dmask and fmask to 774 but "Others" still have write access.
[05:23] <VieraON> hey !!!
[05:24] <gRaCiOsO> gaten i didnt have problems with edgy i installed by automatix the card driver but now it appears imposible
[05:24] <VieraON>  :D how are u guys?
[05:24] <specialmoose> what is x config?
[05:24] <gaten> gRaCiOsO: donno what to tell you. i always use the binary drivers from nvidia.
[05:24] <VieraON> hey
[05:24] <eternalswd> jscinoz, what about 775
[05:24] <ans_> What could cause a blank screen with only the cursor showing after login, anyone?
[05:25] <bronze> demon_spork, then recommend me some. It HAS to have encryption, and also a "DHT disable" choice.

[05:29] <Polygon89> click downloads
[05:29] <bronze> is it hard to install?
[05:29] <Polygon89> wait ill just give you a link
[05:29] <Flannel> fackamato: why didn't you compile it into a package (checkinstall)?  What you can do is make a pretend package that satisfies mplayer.  Just an empty one that provides mplayer
[05:29] <Polygon89> you running 32 bit fiesty?
[05:29] <bronze> yep
[05:29] <sensation> hey
[05:29] <Ramon> Hello :) Im having an issue with the "rinetd" program... I was redirecting all the traffic to a port from an ip to another one on the same port... but now rinetd is stopping itself..
[05:29] <eternalswd> bronze, you'll have to compile from source, but it's not that difficult
[05:29] <sensation> so ubuntu has turkish pack too right ?=
[05:30] <bronze> eternalswd, will you be here tomorrow? Really gotta get some sleep now.
[05:30] <mneptok> VieraON: /join #ubuntu-br
[05:30] <bronze> Or I guess it's not hard.
[05:30] <Polygon89> bronze, http://download.deluge-torrent.org/testing/deluge-0.5.1.90.tar.gz
[05:30] <eternalswd> bronze, yep, not sure when though
[05:30] <Polygon89> its a .deb
[05:30] <Polygon89> so simply double click to install
[05:30] <bronze> kk
[05:30] <sensation> hey
[05:30] <jscinoz> Hey guys, i've mounted two smbfs shares in /media and they show up in the left pane of Nautilus, however i want to change their icon from the disk icon to the smb icon, how would i do this?

[05:31] <mneptok> sensation: stop repeating
[05:31] <sensation> is the latest version of ubuntu got turkish language pack ?
[05:31] <Polygon89> im sure it does...
[05:31] <mneptok> sensation: i gave you the answer 5 minutes ago.
[05:31] <eternalswd> Polygon89, ah, didn't realize they had debs, that's useful for the n00bs :)
[05:31] <sensation> didnt see bro
[05:31] <fackamato> Flannel, aha that sounds good, how would I do that?
[05:31] <sensation> lemme see again plz
[05:31] <Polygon89> eternalswd, yep.
[05:31] <mneptok> sensation: scroll up
[05:31] <Ramon> do you guys know about a program called "rinetd" ?
[05:32] <Dr_willis> jscinoz,  to give them custome icons i would guess the user in question needs write permission to the things. as far as linux is concerned they are hard drives.  :0
[05:32] <zeddicus> Is there a way in gnome to make each virtual desktop have it's own wallpaper?
[05:32] <mneptok> zeddicus: GDM is not BeOS
[05:32] <mneptok> ;)
[05:32] <jrib> zeddicus: google for 'wallpapoz'
[05:32] <Dr_willis> BeOS is fun. :)
[05:32] <mneptok> Dr_willis: "was"
[05:32] <zeddicus> I prefer kde but I can't get Beryl to work well with kde
[05:33] <Polygon89> jrib, that is not his question. read it more carefully first.
[05:33] <Dr_willis> mneptok,  theres some little work on it.  Used it the other day on a little bitty old box. Just for a ssh client. :)
[05:33] <Ramon> Polygon: do you know about Rinetd?
[05:33] <jscinoz> dr_willis, so could you explain this is greater detail? i changed the icons as they appear when you browse to /media but no affect on the sidebar
[05:33] <Polygon89> ramon, no.
[05:33] <Ramon> ... :(
[05:33] <jrib> Polygon89: what is his question?
[05:33] <Dr_willis> jscinoz,  no idea on the sidebar then. They may be getting the info from some other place.
[05:33] <mneptok> Dr_willis: never underestimate the power of geek necrophilia
 Is there a way in gnome to make each virtual desktop have it's own wallpaper?
[05:33] <Dr_willis> mneptok,  i have several Vic-20's and amigas also. :)
[05:34] <mneptok> Dr_willis: thanks for making my point :)
[05:34] <jrib> Polygon89: *g*
[05:34] <Dr_willis> I thought i saw that feture under gnome.. I tend to use KDE however.
[05:34] <Flannel> !away > DRK
[05:34] <Dr_willis> mneptok,  i want a GEOS theme!
[05:34] <Flannel> fackamato: http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/4610  equivs is apparently an automated method
[05:34] <FactTech> Newbie Question: I installed Xubuntu 6.10 without realizing that I had disabled the floppy disk drive controller in the BIOS. As a result, I can't seem to mount the drive, and there is no entry in /etc/fstab for it. Do I need to do anything other than add an fstab entry?
[05:34] <Ramon> FactTech .... join #xubuntu
[05:35] <smultron> FactTech: is it still disabled in the BIOS?
[05:35] <FactTech> smultron No, I re-enabled it.
[05:35] <mneptok> Dr_willis: ewww .... snuff porn.
[05:35] <Dr_willis> mneptok,  old skool! floppy! :)
[05:35] <FactTech> Ramon Oops, yes, sorry about that.
[05:35] <mneptok> Dr_willis: old school. Hollerith card.
[05:36] <datmony> is ssh not open by default in ubuntu?
[05:36] <Flannel> datmony: Ubuntu has nothing listening by default.  Install openssh-server and you'll get it
[05:36] <Dr_willis> datmony,  its not installed by default.
[05:36] <mneptok> datmony: not only that, it's not installed
[05:36] <datmony> interesting
[05:36] <FactTech> join #xubuntu
[05:36] <datmony> thanks
[05:37] <zeddicus> Another problem I have is my Geforce video card unless I use sysinfo won't do 1440*900 I set it with sysinfo and then click the option to apply to xorg.conf and it's fine untill I reboot any ideas?
[05:37] <RoundyT1> what does "631/tcp open  ipp
[05:37] <RoundyT1> " mean?
[05:38] <dancingmonkey> I need to get Adobe Flash (developer, not the player) to run, I tried WINE but the installer complains it needs JScript. Is there a decent free emulator that I can easily install windows 2000 on?
[05:38] <jrib> !virtualizers > dancingmonkey (see the private message from ubotu)
[05:38] <Dr_willis> RoundyT1,  thats for CUPS
[05:39] <jrib> dancingmonkey: qemu/kvm and virtualbox are the free ones I guess
[05:39] <Dr_willis> vmware server has a 'free' version.
[05:39] <b^j> vmware player is free as in beer
[05:39] <Dr_willis> server has a 'free' as in ' give them a fake email address, and ya get a serial #' :) free
[05:40] <demon_spork> easyvmx.com to make the image, then use vmware player to play it and go from there
[05:40] <RoundyT1> Dr_willis, what's cups?
[05:40] <RoundyT1> !cups
[05:40] <ubotu> Printing in Ubuntu is done with CUPS. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows

[05:40] <RoundyT1> is "cron" like task scheduler
[05:41] <jpw87> hello how do i refresh my window decorator with compiz fusion?
[05:41] <Nutubuntu> Well, that's odd ... I am marked as away even though I am not away; can't un-set it.

[05:41] <jpw87> :)
[05:41] <jpw87> noones there atm
[05:41] <bruenig> jpw87, ok then go to ##politics since you care not if your questions are off topic
[05:42] <bruenig> go to #hal and ask them
[05:42] <jpw87> bruenig: sorry d00d :P no need for hostility
[05:42] <VIrUZ_> i friend of mine talls me that DREAMLINUX is much better then UBUNTU
[05:43] <TaJMoX> viruz_ just because?  and that's that?
[05:43] <dionnow> Hows it going everyone?
[05:43] <TaJMoX> well he must be right then
[05:43] <bruenig> VIrUZ_, it is xfce and uses apt for package management, it is essentially xubuntu with different repos and a different theme
[05:43] <VIrUZ_> too many reasons to mention
[05:43] <bruenig> It looks good
[05:43] <TaJMoX> yeah you can't mention one
[05:43] <Hmmmm> hey guys, need sme help configuring rsync
[05:43] <VIrUZ_> im not my friend
[05:43] <TaJMoX> you and your friend are very informed
[05:44] <demon_spork> does anyone know how to run a command at system boot, such as "sudo -u bob tightvncserver -httpport 666 :4"
[05:44] <Hmmmm> i wana keep a dir on two load balanced server completely in sync
[05:44] <bruenig> TaJMoX, it is very good, have you used it?
[05:44] <dionnow> lol
[05:44] <TaJMoX> linux is linux - it's up to you to decide what flavour you like
[05:44] <Hmmmm> wnna do this on the fly
[05:44] <VIrUZ_> i like vanila
[05:44] <TaJMoX> bruenig - is it deb based?   if so i'll try it out =] 
[05:44] <mongolai> demon_spork, look into rc.local
[05:44] <bruenig> TaJMoX, yes
[05:44] <demon_spork> mongolai, I have no idea what to do in that
[05:45] <bruenig> TaJMoX, http://www.dreamlinux.com.br/english/index.html
[05:45] <TaJMoX> bruenig but why would it be better than ubuntu?   I've used over 10 distros and decided I like ubuntu the best
[05:45] <TaJMoX> oh its that brazilian os
[05:45] <bruenig> yeah
[05:45] <TaJMoX> well im sure every zillian loves it =] 
[05:45] <TaJMoX> but its not better than ubuntu =] 
[05:46] <TaJMoX> and i bet it doesn't work with my vid card
[05:46] <bruenig> I bet it does, it has a gl edition
[05:46] <klobster> I'm waiting for guinnix to come out, then I'll switch
[05:46] <bruenig> it is big on eye candy
[05:46] <TaJMoX> yeah my vid card doesn't support composites
[05:46] <Nutubuntu> What do I need to install into a new Feisty box to be able to compile from source?
[05:47] <Nutubuntu> gcc and ... what else?
[05:47] <TaJMoX> !compile
[05:47] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)

[05:47] <TaJMoX> Nutubuntu: build-essential
[05:47] <Nutubuntu> t/y jrib
[05:47] <bruenig> TaJMoX, then what is it some bizarre weak ati or something
[05:47] <TaJMoX> bruenig: yes an ATI Mobility X1300      no AIGLX only XGL
[05:47] <mongolai> demon_spork, add an entry into /etc/rc.local
[05:47] <chrisjs169_> well, I temporarily fixed my issue with playing DVDs, but how safe is it to run multiple instances of growisofs for burning multiple DVDs at a time?
[05:48] <TaJMoX> bruenig: it's not a weak card but it just isn't well supported with linux drivers
[05:48] <klobster> anyone from the uk?
[05:49] <TaJMoX> So what if I install my own eyecandy on Ubuntu, like I already do.   Is DearmLinux still better?
[05:50] <TaJMoX> my desktop is more fly than the DL screenshots
[05:51] <Dr_willis> Eye candy causes Ocular Cavaties
[05:54] <mzuverink> How exactly do I enable usershares, I am attempting to share an entire external HD and it wont let me
[05:54] <adante> say, ntfs write support depends on.. kernel ver?
[05:54] <adante> (i know dev say its not stable but most people i've talked to say its good now)
[05:55] <Dr_willis> mzuverink,  a samba share? or nfs share?
[05:55] <cwgannon> ahoy ... i'm on the live cd now and want to set up a partition for home that windows can see, but it won't allow me to format it as fat32 ... what should i format it as?
[05:55] <demon_spork> mongolai, the command doesn't seem to be working, so should it be executing before a user login?
[05:55] <Sonic1> I thought NTFS write support depends on ntfs-3g?
[05:55] <Dr_willis> adante,  you can install the ntfs-3g stuff for write support.
[05:55] <adante> Dr_willis: thanks
[05:55] <the_darkside986> hello all.
[05:55] <mzuverink> not sure what would be better, would nfs work w/ my windows boxen?
[05:55] <adante> Dr_willis: so that's independent of kernel etc
[05:56] <Sonic1> and why won't it allow you to format to fat32 cwgannon?
[05:56] <cwgannon> Sonic1: it says it's not a fully-functional Unix FS
[05:56] <Sonic1> wierd
[05:56] <the_darkside986> I'm having a problem with the version of libfreetype6 on Feisty. I can't use the SDL_ttf function SDL_RenderText_Solid without an error. All my research states that it is freetype's fault but has no info how to fix it.
[05:57] <Sonic1> well, I think there is a way for Windows to communicate with Ext2 partitions
[05:57] <crabgrass> okay guys, question. why should i set up a samba share when making an ftp server is so damned much easier?
[05:57] <cwgannon> Sonic1: interesting
[05:57] <Sonic1> oh
[05:57] <Sonic1> it's both ext2 and ext3
[05:58] <mzuverink> Ive got a My Book by WD, I would like to format it ext3 since it will only be used on a *nix machine, what would the command be to do that? Or is it not possible or advisable?
[05:58] <Sonic1> http://www.fs-driver.org/index.html
[05:58] <demon_spork> Sonic1, www.fs-drivers.org will allow windows to read and write ext2 and ext3 partitions
[05:58] <VIrUZ_> how can i get africans support under ubuntu ?
[05:58] <Sonic1> lol
[05:58] <gneale> Does xdmcp work out of the box?
[05:58] <Sonic1> I beat you to the link demon_spork  :D
[05:59] <CppIsWeird> how do i get the current working directory in command line?
[05:59] <jrib> CppIsWeird: pwd
[05:59] <gneale> CppIsWeird: pwd
[05:59] <CppIsWeird> whats p stand for?
[05:59] <jrib> CppIsWeird: print working directory
[05:59] <the_darkside986> anyone know how to downgrade libfreetype6 deb package without making synaptic complain about the package index being broken?
[05:59] <CppIsWeird> ah. thx.
[05:59] <VIrUZ_> how can i get africans support under ubuntu ?
[05:59] <dimas869> does anyone knows if flash player work good on displaying picture from a cam been use in ubuntu, the cam works good on ekiga and xawtv but i cant get the picture displaying in none of the video chats from the net
[06:00] <awerner32> say i am ssh'd into a forgeign host
[06:00] <fackamato> thanks a lot Flannel, works like a charm
[06:00] <awerner32> how can i open a program on forgein host
[06:01] <Flannel> fackamato: you're better off ni the future building in something like checkinstall, so you get a deb that you can upgrade/remove later.
[06:02] <fackamato> yeah
[06:02] <dimas869> flannel do you know anything about adobe flash player working good with a cam installed on ubuntu 7.04?
[06:02] <Flannel> dimas869: Does the cam work with Ubuntu normally?
[06:02] <sirus> wow
[06:02] <Who_> Anyone know what mught be causing it to seem like my windows key is permanently on?
[06:02] <sirus> ubuntu like did everything sound / net /video
[06:02] <sirus> very nice
[06:03] <dimas869> flannel works with ekiga and xawtv properly
[06:03] <fackamato> how do I tell apt to NOT upgrade certain packages_
[06:03] <Flannel> dimas869: Ah, well... It's a flash issue then ;)  Did you allow flash to view your webcam with the flash popup config thing?
[06:04] <Flannel> !pinning | fackamato
[06:04] <ubotu> fackamato: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto
[06:04] <fackamato> :)
[06:04] <fackamato> cheers
[06:04] <dimas869> flannel of course but the display comes in black
[06:05] <Flannel> dimas869: No idea.  Sorry.  But at least you know it's not because your CAM's drivers
[06:05] <cwgannon> Sonic1: thank you!
[06:05] <mzuverink> Is it possible to format a Western Digital usb external drive to ext3? Or is that not a good idea.  And how do I change the name of that drive?
[06:05] <Sonic1> Ack!
[06:05] <Sonic1> mzuverink, a very good chance that you can
[06:05] <CppIsWeird> if im executing a command and i want to give it the current working directory in command line, how would i accomplish this? command -d pwd
[06:06] <mzuverink> Sonic1, ok
[06:06] <dimas869> flannel driver is ok, i just doont know if perhaps some kind of configuration from the browser is not allowing the display
[06:06] <fotoflo_> CppIsWeird, $1
[06:06] <Flannel> CppIsWeird: command -d `pwd`  the backticks make it run first.
[06:06] <CppIsWeird> i tried the backticks
[06:07] <Wikkedfin^> anyone here tried ubuntu studio?
[06:07] <Flannel> Wikkedfin^: You might try #ubuntustudio, they all (or most) have.
[06:07] <Wikkedfin^> thank you
[06:07] <fotoflo_> CppIsWeird, try    command $1
[06:08] <CppIsWeird> is that $ one or $ L
[06:08] <fotoflo_> one
[06:08] <CppIsWeird> k
[06:09] <specialmoose> hello, im running ubuntu 7.04, sound coming out of nvidia soundcard (nforce board). I have duplicate front enabled in volume control (to get my 4.1 speakers to work). However, now when i press MUTE on my keyboard, it only mutes the front speakers. Anyone know how to set it to mute everything?
[06:10] <CppIsWeird> mabey i should just explain what im trying to do. I am trying to get geany to pass in the -d (currentworkingdirectory) when it compiles.
[06:10] <fotoflo_> CppIsWeird, no idea
[06:11] <Wikkedfin^> anyone here tried to install an ircd on ubuntu 7.04 (non server)?
[06:12] <Nutubuntu> I'm trying to make sure I have what I'll need to compile a package from source, which I can't find in the repositories. The readme says it wants PyGtK-2.10, gnome-python-2.12, gnome-python-desktop-2.12, and gnome-python-extras-2.12 ... how to find out what these are named in Ubuntu? I suspect I can't find them b/c their right names are different in the repositories.
[06:13] <cirrus-> so many people.  wow.
[06:14] <mmcho> Do you have any problems with scim in kubuntu feisty?
[06:14] <mmcho> canna server can not be reached
[06:14] <dubbydubby> this is an odd question but does anyone know of a program that does the same thing that vista sidebar does?
[06:15] <cavalierprime> most of the python requirements are installed when you install the OD
[06:15] <cavalierprime> err os
[06:15] <danc3> dubbydubby: what's "vista sidebar" do?
[06:15] <danc3> suck up resources?
[06:15] <mmcho> In Edgy that problem doesn't exist
[06:15] <lucifermournings> Does anyone know how I can limit what programs a user can access.  I would like to deny some programs on my son's account.
[06:15] <dubbydubby> its like it loads small htmls
[06:16] <danc3> dubbydubby: I don't even know what that means
 its like it loads small htmls    LOL
[06:16] <dubbydubby> i know
[06:16] <danc3> that's great
[06:16] <danc3> that answers the question
[06:17] <mmcho> #scim
[06:17] <lucifermournings> No luck?
[06:19] <CrashNBurn> anyone know a good pmcia card I could put in an OLD p266 160MB machine ?
[06:19] <Nutubuntu> lucifermournings, I'm guessing, but I'd do it through group membership. Build a new group, deny execute to ... *everything* ... to the group, then give it x to only-what-you-want, and make him a member of it ... but that's guessing; someone must know :)
[06:19] <Dr_willis> CrashNBurn,  and old laptop?
[06:19] <CrashNBurn> yes
[06:20] <dubbydubby> someone who knows about windows vista does anyone know a linux equivelent to the sidebar?
[06:20] <dubbydubby> or mac os x's gadgets
[06:20] <dubbydubby> same shit
[06:20] <lucifermournings> Thanks nut, I will give that a shot.
[06:21] <rob> dubbydubby, please watch the language, we are a family channel :)
[06:21] <dubbydubby> im sorry
[06:21] <dubbydubby> just got upset
[06:21] <CrashNBurn> anyone know a good pmcia card I could put in an OLD p266 160MB laptop machine ?
[06:21] <Dr_willis> dubbydubby,  superkaramba for kde, gdesklets for gnome, Opera also has widgets
[06:21] <dubbydubby> thank you Dr_willis
[06:21] <Dr_willis> dubbydubby,  and they all are basicially useless. :) i hate desktop-cruft like that
[06:22] <dubbydubby> yeah but my mother says differently
[06:22] <Dr_willis> the sidebar at least stays on the SIDE. :)  heh.. thats one decent feature it has
[06:22] <Dr_willis> dubbydubby,  so does my wife.
[06:22] <demon_spork> does anyone know how to run a command at system boot, such as "sudo -u bob tightvncserver -httpport 666 :4" or would that command even work in rc.local?
[06:22] <Dr_willis> dubbydubby,  she HAS to have her 8-ball gizmo
[06:22] <shadow-theif> hahah
[06:22] <CrashNBurn> anyone here ever try to run xp on a 266 P2 .... its sorta funny
[06:22] <CrashNBurn> and say
[06:22] <CrashNBurn> sad
[06:22] <Lo_Pan> i have a dual p2 350 box
[06:23] <Dr_willis> demon_spork,  ive seen how tos on making vncserver spawn from inetd/xinetd.   You could do it from rc.local i guess also.
[06:23] <CrashNBurn> lo_pan how's it run?
[06:23] <demon_spork> please show me how to "spawn" it
[06:23] <demon_spork> in any way
[06:23] <Lo_Pan> CrashNBurn: fine, it runs 6.06.1
[06:23] <CrashNBurn> nice
[06:24] <Lo_Pan> CrashNBurn: handles my dhcp/dns/ntp/smb/http/ftp/imap/smtp/etc
[06:24] <Dr_willis> demon_spork,  from inetd/xinted.. ahve to find that howto.. I perfer to just 'ssh' in and run it when needed.
[06:24] <Lo_Pan> nothin wrong with it
[06:24] <astroraptor> is there a way to just install a base system using the Ubuntu install disc and skip the live CD bit?
[06:24] <Dr_willis> demon_spork,  i think i followed some gentoo docs. :)
[06:24] <Lo_Pan> astroraptor: alternate install disc
[06:24] <CrashNBurn> I justy picked up 2 compaq armada 1700 at a yard sale want to use them for wireless web and web chat points
[06:24] <astroraptor> hmm, so I'll need an entirely different disc after all?
[06:25] <demon_spork> Dr_willis, the thing I need though is access without having to install anything on the system I am using
[06:25] <astroraptor> I'm out of CD's :'(
[06:25] <demon_spork> and the java web interface is perfect for my needs
[06:25] <CrashNBurn> astroraptor I feel your pain im out of cds and there's damded laptops won't run dvds
[06:26] <bassgoon> has anyone installed on an intel mac?
[06:26] <Lo_Pan> astroraptor: i usually burn it onto dvds when i run out of cds
[06:26] <Lo_Pan> bassgoon: yeah
[06:26] <Lo_Pan> im on it right now
[06:27] <bassgoon> Lo_Pan, do I have any chance with an unformatted hdd? I've installed bootcamp, so it still has the ability to boot windows install discs
[06:27] <bassgoon> and my os x is unavailable until thursday
[06:27] <Lo_Pan> bassgoon: yeah, you should be fine, i dont even bother with bootcamp
[06:28] <Larry> anyone care to give some help with a kernel recompile
[06:28] <Lo_Pan> CrashNBurn: i like apple gear, but not the user community
[06:28] <Dr_willis> I have a hard time liking over priced things. :)
[06:28] <Lo_Pan> each to their own
[06:28] <flyinprogramer> hey o, how do i change the keyring password ?
[06:29] <Larry> I'm following the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile
[06:29] <Lo_Pan> heh
[06:29] <Lo_Pan> bassgoon: which mac
[06:29] <Larry> downloaded the source using git, edited and updated the configs
[06:29] <astroraptor> Lo_Pan: no DVD-ROM drive :(
[06:29] <CrashNBurn> what are the minimum sys req for v7 ubuntu?
[06:29] <Lo_Pan> astroraptor: aw
[06:29] <sniDe> hey guys, i just installed unrar and other archiving types and comix / qcomicbook apps .. no problem but when i try to open a .cbr file .. got an error says it doesnt recognize the file
[06:29] <bassgoon> Lo_Pan, macbook pro
[06:30] <bassgoon> early 06
[06:30] <sniDe> even i used the "open with.." with comix
[06:30] <sniDe> still no luck
[06:30] <Larry> and i don't think AUTOBUILD is running right... that or i don't know where to look for what it makes
[06:30] <Lo_Pan> bassgoon: there's a guide on the ubuntu community site
[06:30] <astroraptor> if only there was a way to do a network install
[06:31] <CrashNBurn> will a p266 machine be able to handel a basic load management setup for a home network of 8 pc's?
[06:31] <Larry> it reports a couple Error 2's and stops
[06:31] <demoncorsair> hey what is the boot procedure on ubuntu
[06:31] <Lo_Pan> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookPro
[06:32] <Dr_willis> sniDe,  i dont recall opening .cbr files. I used a comic book reader program and loaded them. Its possible they are currupted files
[06:32] <Warhol> i recently installed the new version of xgl for my nvidia card and now x server isnt booting up, what is the command to restore the configuration files for xgl with the default backup it makes
[06:32] <Lo_Pan> bassgoon: generally i just blow away everything on the disk and install
[06:32] <bassgoon> CrashNBurn, its i386 ;)
[06:32] <Lo_Pan> bassgoon: but ymmv depending on your firmware
[06:32] <Lo_Pan> such as efi update etc
[06:32] <bassgoon> Lo_Pan, everything is fully updated
[06:32] <Lo_Pan> yeah
[06:33] <Lo_Pan> just stick the disc in and install
[06:33] <CrashNBurn> I ment pentium 266 mhz
[06:33] <bassgoon> dl will finish in 13 mins..
[06:33] <phreck> ugh
[06:33] <phreck> composite
[06:33] <phreck> BAH
[06:33] <bassgoon> CrashNBurn, its i386... :p
[06:33] <Warhol> anyone know that command?
[06:33] <bassgoon> I mean, it does i386
[06:33] <sirus> in ubuntu when i load it up there is a network connection icon on the top left where i can collect ip information etc it works on the first try when doing it a second time it gives me an error global file missing how can i fix that?
[06:33] <Jamesinator> Warhol: What command?
[06:33] <bassgoon> CrashNBurn, maybe try xubuntu
[06:34] <CrashNBurn> on a 266 mhz machine ? ... I don't wanna likk it I just resurected it
[06:34] <ovnicraft> anyone know to give internet to a virtual machine
[06:34] <bassgoon> Lo_Pan, does the wireless work?
[06:34] <Lo_Pan> bassgoon: i have a macbook, but it works
[06:34] <Lo_Pan> bassgoon: read that link
[06:35] <Lo_Pan> it talks about all the individual hardwares
[06:35] <bassgoon> read what link?
[06:36] <p1p1> what can i do here
[06:36] <Lo_Pan> 14:31:52 < Lo_Pan> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookPro

[06:39] <bassgoon> Lo_Pan, thanks for all the help
[06:39] <tritium> Jack_Sparrow: guess what?  You can query ubotu in private.
[06:39] <CrashNBurn> I could read write to my ntfs volumes directly after install why whould domeone need a driver for it?
[06:40] <Lo_Pan> bassgoon: no worries
[06:40] <Jack_Sparrow> tritium:I know, the room looked dead..
[06:41] <Jack_Sparrow> CrashNBurn: Not using 7.04
[06:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Running Dapper
[06:41] <dfabulich> Quick question: I installed Ubuntu 7.04 (not Kubuntu) but I want to try Konqueror.  I don't see it in the Add/Remove list, even when I select "All available applications".  How do I install it?  Do I have to install Kubuntu?  How do I do that without messing up my regular Gnome-ish Ubuntu?
[06:42] <zerokill88> How do i get more themes for Ubuntu without the use of Beryl or anything?
[06:43] <defrysk> !info konqueror | dfabulich
[06:43] <ubotu> dfabulich: konqueror: KDE's advanced file manager, web browser and document viewer. In component main, is optional. Version 4:3.5.6-0ubuntu20.1 (feisty), package size 1992 kB, installed size 5324 kB
[06:44] <defrysk> dfabulich, try sudo apt-get install konqueror
[06:44] <CrashNBurn> I forgott who recommended xubuntu to me but to who ever did TAHNKS
[06:44] <preaction> zerokill88: http://gnome-look.org might be a good place to start
[06:44] <dfabulich> defrysk: I tried just !konqueror and ubotu said he didn't know anything about it. :-p
[06:45] <defrysk> dfabulich, that is because you made a typo
[06:45] <tritium> dfabulich: if you wanted to try the entire KDE desktop env., you can install kubuntu-desktop on top of your ubuntu install.
[06:46] <CrashNBurn> is the ubuntu live cd superrior to knoppix?
[06:46] <devnull> Yeah I have both kde and gnome
[06:46] <zeroglitch> whats up all. Anyone have any idea why Totem movie player videos are jumping and distorted?
[06:46] <devnull> I hop between them lol
[06:46] <defrysk> CrashNBurn, maybe for some and not for others
[06:46] <Jack_Sparrow> CrashNBurn: My opinion.. no
[06:47] <cavalierprime> knoppix is a derivative of ubuntu isn't it?
[06:47] <CrashNBurn> no
[06:47] <CrashNBurn> lolz
[06:47] <Jack_Sparrow> Debian yes
[06:47] <cavalierprime> ahh
[06:47] <devnull> of Debian yes, not of ubuntu
[06:47] <devnull> they are both derivatives.
[06:47] <dfabulich> tritium: What happens when you install both?  Do I have to switch back and forth between Gnome and KDE?  What does that look/feel like?
[06:47] <Jack_Sparrow> dfabulich: KDE is more like Windows in look and feel
[06:48] <Sonicadvance1> KDE is bulky
[06:48] <gerro> CrashNBurn: if knoppix too big to load or you hate kde then yeah ubuntu live cd is superior :)
[06:48] <dfabulich> Jack_Sparrow: I knew that, but how can you have both Gnome and KDE at once?
[06:48] <Jack_Sparrow> dfabulich: Youhave the option at the login screen for which WM you want to use
[06:48] <Jack_Sparrow> nope
[06:48] <gerro> Jack_Sparrow: I think xfce more so is..
[06:49] <dfabulich> I mean, I know, you just install them both, but what happens?  You can't have both Gnome and KDE start menus, taskbars, desktops, etc?
[06:49] <defrysk> dfabulich, you kan switch between them with the login manager (gdm or kdm) to switch between the loginmanagers do sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[06:49] <Jack_Sparrow> dfabulich: Youhave the option at the login screen for which WM you want to use (Pick ONE)
[06:49] <CrashNBurn> I like how uber easy it is to use knoppix but it donint have the nice user community like ubuntu
[06:49] <mariocesar_bo> :S i am lost ! i had update the ubuntu, now i can't get xorg boot correctly with the nvidia drivers :S
[06:50] <Zilus> Greetings
[06:50] <Wikkedfin^> Has anyone got UT2003 to run on Ubuntu 7.04 AMD64?
[06:50] <Jack_Sparrow> CrashNBurn: The support makes a huge difference
[06:50] <Zilus> someone with jpilot working under feisty?
[06:50] <dfabulich> thanks all
[06:50] <CrashNBurn> yes it dose ... ndiswrapper and knoppix back in knoppix 4.0 was evil
[06:52] <Zilus> anyone?
[06:52] <mariocesar_bo> i am with the nv driver, where i can get the pasts logs from Xorg, when i had the nvidia driver?
[06:52] <sirus> so anyone know how i can fix that?
[06:52] <CrashNBurn> greetings and salutations Zilus
[06:53] <tritium> mariocesar_bo: /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old
[06:53] <Zilus> CrashNBurn, thanks :-)
[06:53] <derzw3rg> guten morgen :)
[06:53] <Zilus> CrashNBurn, do you have jpilot working?
[06:53] <tritium> mariocesar_bo: that's the previous log, then there's the current log, which is /var/log/Xorg.0.log.  If you've started X more than once since using nvidia, you won't have a pertinent log.
[06:53] <CrashNBurn> no no clue what it even is
[06:53] <und3rB3ar> sweed ?
[06:53] <mariocesar_bo> tritium: i note it ... :(
[06:54] <mariocesar_bo> so what happend  ! why i can boot xorg
[06:54] <mariocesar_bo> "i can't " boot zorg
[06:54] <mariocesar_bo> xorg
[06:54] <tritium> mariocesar_bo: you can still check the log file for errors (EE) and warnings (WW)
[06:54] <Zilus> CrashNBurn, thanks anyway :-)
[06:54] <mariocesar_bo> i am not sure, but i think i update the linux-restricted-modules
[06:55] <defrysk> mariocesar_bo, how did you install nvidia ?
[06:55] <Jack_Sparrow> Hopefully not by usng a script like automatix
[06:55] <Jack_Sparrow> Or Envy
[06:56] <PurpZeY> !nvidia | defrysk
[06:56] <mariocesar_bo> defrysk: with the tutor of ubuntuguide.org
[06:56] <ubotu> defrysk: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:56] <defrysk> PurpZeY, dont play with ubotu please
[06:56] <tritium> mariocesar_bo: the wiki and help.ubuntu.com make better tutors
[06:56] <linux_user400354> i have setup dual monitors in linux using nvidia-settings. my top and bottom panels in gnome stretch from one screen to the other. how can i get the panels to stay on one screen and not stretch to the other screen?
[06:56] <mariocesar_bo> o men... i am so lost ... :(
[06:56] <defrysk> mariocesar_bo, I guess you are
[06:56] <PurpZeY> defrysk: I wasn't playing...I just misread...I thought you asked how to install....my mistake
[06:56] <mariocesar_bo> i am with 800x600 of resolutions
[06:56] <mariocesar_bo> :'(
[06:56] <defrysk> mariocesar_bo, remember any idiot can write something on a forum
[06:57] <mariocesar_bo> so, what am i do ? uninstall all nvidia packages ? and reinstall all following the wiki?
[06:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Goodnight people Play nice
[06:57] <Sonicadvance1> I had to delete a file before my nvidia drivers worked again
[06:57] <defrysk> mariocesar_bo, I would redo it the way it was told in that forum
[06:58] <defrysk> mariocesar_bo, and next time read the howto's in help.ubuntu.com
[06:58] <Murp> hey guys Ubuntu does really strange stuff on my computer, was hoping someone could help?
[06:59] <PurpZeY> Murp: What kind of stuff?
[06:59] <defrysk> !ask | murp
[06:59] <ubotu> murp: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:59] <mariocesar_bo> hoooo boy... i had a beatifull desk, with compizz fussion running so fine ...
[06:59] <Murp> heh it's not really a question so much as a conundrum
[06:59] <Murp> I had trouble installing
[06:59] <defrysk> mariocesar_bo, if it was envy rerun envy
[06:59] <gerro> mariocesar_bo: the linux restricted modules have a hidden nvidia driver in them, be sure to remove them and take anything needed from them to setup yourself manually you can set resolution by editing xorg.conf in /etc/X11/ and do xrandr to see resolution options then xrandr -s # to change
[06:59] <Murp> the mouse works for a while
[06:59] <Zenji> HEY
[06:59] <Zenji> :)
[06:59] <mariocesar_bo> well i would try so.
[06:59] <Zenji> How to play Real Media on Ubuntu?
[06:59] <Murp> but then at a certain point (usually just after I double click the install button) it freezes in it's spot
[06:59] <mariocesar_bo> thanks
[06:59] <Zenji> How to play Real Media on Ubuntu?
[07:00] <Murp> so I have to use the tab button to move stuff around
[07:00] <Murp> I get it installed that way
[07:00] <Murp> and when I restart I get in
[07:00] <Murp> and again, the mouse works for a little bit, then stops
[07:00] <PurpZeY> Murp: What do you mean, move stuff?
[07:00] <sirus> whats a good cd burner?
[07:00] <Murp> well I mean I had to tab to the buttons and drop downs
[07:01] <Murp> I could not use the mouse
[07:01] <Murp> after a certain point it's like the mouse just turned off
[07:01] <PurpZeY> !cd
[07:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:01] <defrysk> sirus, depend for what purpose you wish to use it
[07:01] <vexati0n> Murp: USB mouse or PS/2 ?
[07:01] <Murp> the point no longer moved and didn't respond to clicks
[07:01] <Murp> USB
[07:01] <Murp> Logitech MX510
[07:01] <Murp> I've lost my PS/2 adapter for it
[07:01] <sirus> defrysk: dvd/audio/data/mp3s
[07:01] <sirus> defrysk: there was a nice one called brezo but i dont think thats how you spell it
[07:01] <vexati0n> Murp, is your computer an off-the-shelf type or did you build it yourself? and if you built it yourself, did you cut corners on your mobo?
[07:02] <defrysk> sirus, serpentine is great for that
[07:02] <Murp> built myself
[07:02] <Murp> I don't think I cut corners
[07:02] <Murp> I mean, I'm not really sure how I would
[07:02] <Murp> it's an ASUS P5ND2-SLI Deluxe
[07:02] <piecesandbits> having trouble getting use to sudo.  Is it just personal preference to use it as opposed to a root account?
[07:02] <PurpZeY> piecesandbits: The idea of sudo is that, it is more protected than root...so that when you are doing something day to day, you don't accidentally fubar things. it requires a password check.
[07:03] <vexati0n> Murp: have you tried a different mouse? have you installed all the system updates for your installation?
[07:03] <sirus> defrysk: do you know what im talking about?
[07:03] <Murp> I can't install system updates. Don't know how to get to it with keyboard alone
[07:03] <Murp> and no I have not tried a different mouse
[07:03] <Zenji> Hi
[07:03] <Zenji> Can someone help me?
[07:03] <PurpZeY> Murp: apt-get will get updates
[07:03] <defrysk> sirus, make audio cd's ?
[07:03] <PurpZeY> !ask | Zenji
[07:03] <ubotu> Zenji: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:03] <defrysk> or simply burn data ?
[07:03] <sirus> defrysk: yes
[07:04] <sirus> defrysk: both
[07:04] <Zenji> I want to play a real media file. How do I do so?
[07:04] <Murp> don't really know where to type apt-get. how do I open the console with my keyboard?
[07:04] <PurpZeY> !restricted | Zenji
[07:04] <ubotu> Zenji: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[07:04] <demon_spork> does vlc play real media files?
[07:04] <piecesandbits> thanks PurpZeY, I will keep at it then.
[07:04] <defrysk> sirus,  serpentine for mp3 > audio
[07:04] <Murp> btw this is Ubuntu 7.04 if that helps
[07:04] <PurpZeY> piecesandbits: This channel and Ubuntu generally, does not support standard root
[07:04] <defrysk> sirus,  for data I would use nautilus
[07:05] <n2diy> Murp: you are at the konsole with the keyboard.
[07:05] <Murp> no I don't know how to get to the console
[07:05] <defrysk> sirus, for cd ripping and playing use sound juicer
[07:05] <sirus> defrysk: something all in one?
[07:05] <Murp> I only have a keyboard, no mouse, so I don't know if there's like a macro or something I can press to open a console
[07:05] <PurpZeY> Murp: Alt-f2
[07:05] <defrysk> sirus, all in one use amarok
[07:05] <piecesandbits> understood PurpZeY and, as I said, will try to change my ways :)
[07:05] <PurpZeY> piecesandbits: Welcome to the fold...; )

[07:07] <sirus> any good cd ripper program?
[07:07] <mariocesar_bo> "nvidia-kernel-2.6.20-16-generic" has to match the version of the "linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-15-generic"
[07:08] <defrysk> sirus, as I said earlier sound juicer
[07:08] <n2diy> Murp: type hello, what happens?
[07:08] <Murp> it says "Could not open location 'file:///hello'
[07:09] <n2diy> Murp: ok type ls, what happens?
[07:09] <defrysk> Murp, try good morning ;p
[07:09] <mariocesar_bo> if it has not the same version nvidia doesn't run. jjejejeje hoo boy ... god bless the wikis ... ^_^
[07:09] <sirus> defrysk: alright maybe its better than grip do you know why when i click on the networking icon to get connection info it says missing global file?
[07:09] <Murp> n2diy: it made the Run Application window disappear
[07:09] <Murp> but I see nothing else on the screen
[07:10] <Murp> I mean, it didn't look like it launched any apps
[07:10] <n2diy> Murp: ok type ls again, what happens?
[07:10] <Murp> nothing
[07:10] <Murp> the window just disappears
[07:10] <Murp> I checked "Run in terminal" and a window popped up and immediately disappears
[07:10] <defrysk> sirus, grip is fine too and your other question , I dont know
[07:11] <sapu> hello... does anyone know why the korean fonts are really ugly in ubuntu?
[07:12] <n2diy> Murp: I'm confused, I think you are in terminal, so I don't understand why you are clicking run in terminal?

[07:12] <Murp> I have no mouse
[07:12] <Murp> I want to open a terminal
[07:12] <Murp> I don't know how to do that
[07:12] <Murp> some guy said alt+f2 but that does not give me a terminal window
[07:12] <Murp> it gives me "Run Application"
[07:12] <vexati0n> alt+f2, type in gnome-terminal, hit enter
[07:12] <n2diy> Murp: press ctrl+alt+F2, what happens?

[07:14] <Murp> some guy said to update and that might fix my mouse problem
[07:14] <zerokill88> sorry i just asked this but How do i get more themes for Ubuntu without the use of Beryl or anything?
[07:14] <n2diy> Murp: try it.
[07:14] <Murp> k
[07:14] <Zilus> someone with jpilot working under feisty?
[07:14] <vexati0n> sudo apt-get update all (i think)
[07:15] <preaction> zerokill88: did you go to gnome-look.org ?
[07:15] <vexati0n> obviously you need to have a network connection first
[07:15] <Murp> oh wow ok I moved the mouse a bit
[07:15] <sirus> how can i get the correct device going for my xorg.conf i use an ati redeon xt 9600?
[07:15] <Murp> and that locked the whole thing up
[07:15] <fackamato> Is there a music player like amarok or rythmbox, that supports Jack output for sound? (for gnome)
[07:15] <Murp> hang on gonna reboot
[07:16] <n2diy> Murp: don't reboot
[07:16] <Murp> n2diy sorry too late
[07:16] <n2diy> Murp: can you still enter stuff in the terminal?
[07:16] <Murp> no I couldn't
[07:17] <Murp> I tried keyboard
[07:17] <sirus> somebody?
[07:17] <Murp> I tried shut down button to bring up the shut down option menu
[07:17] <Murp> got no response
[07:17] <Murp> it was totally locked up
[07:17] <Murp> not just the mouse
[07:17] <n2diy> Murp: how can it be to late, if we are still chatting?
[07:17] <Murp> I'm on my laptop running Windows lol
[07:17] <n2diy> Murp: ah, the other box trick. :)
[07:17] <Murp> yeah
[07:18] <Murp> I've been trying to make Ubuntu work with my desktop since version 5.5
[07:18] <Murp> so I was very ready when I came to IRC tonight
[07:18] <Murp> it's always had this lockup problem
[07:18] <Murp> can't install unless I do safe graphics mode
[07:18] <Murp> and then when it gets up and running this mouse thing happens
[07:18] <preaction> !enter | Murp
[07:18] <ubotu> Murp: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[07:18] <n2diy> Murp: and the Ubuntu install went ok?
[07:19] <mzuverink> How do I permanently stop /etc/init.d/gdm from starting at boot.  I want my machine to boot to shell only
[07:19] <Murp> for the most part. but I lost use of my mouse then too.
[07:19] <n2diy> Murp: is it a trick mouse, or run of the mill type?
[07:20] <PurpZeY> Murp: Just for funsies, have you checked the forums on this issue, or checked if that mouse is supported?
[07:20] <sirus> xorg-driver-fglrx is the driver i need to install?
[07:20] <Murp> eh I guess it's a bit of a trick mouse. It's always been compatible with low-level applications though. Like I've used it when I boot from fix-it CDs and whatnot.
[07:20] <Murp> PurpZey: No, I haven't
[07:20] <sirus> anyway to check if its already installed?
[07:21] <bassgoon> if I'm setting up a macbook pro to run only ubuntu is 200mb enough for the efi boot partition?
[07:22] <gbutler289> how can I edit a dansguardian.conf file as root in a gui?
[07:22] <Zilus> gbutler289,  gksudo gedit /path/to/file
[07:23] <demon_spork> gbutler289, I usually just launch a "sudo nautilus" so I can do all the root editing I want
[07:23] <gbutler289> zilus....is there a way to do by going through the visual system files?
[07:23] <jeremysan> Can anybody help me with NDISwrapper?
[07:24] <Zilus> gbutler289, yes, right click "open as root" or something like that
[07:24] <gbutler289> well one of the things I'm confused about is I tried to install dansguardian and it prompted for root pass using synaptic and then said I didn't have access to create that directory during installation?
[07:24] <n2diy> gbutler289: Zilus told you how to do that.
[07:25] <gbutler289> if synaptic prompts me for root shouldn't it have permission to do whatever?
[07:25] <Zilus> gbutler289, try using apt or aptitude
[07:26] <VIrUZ_> synaptic -I Vx86
[07:26] <jeremysan> Can anybody help me with NDISwrapper?
[07:26] <Zilus> gbutler289, $ sudo apt-get install <package>
[07:26] <gbutler289> so is synaptic a crappy tool?
[07:26] <Zilus> gbutler289, not like that
[07:26] <Zilus> just give it a try
[07:27] <PurpZeY> synaptic is not a crappy tool
[07:27] <n2diy> gbutler289: no, nothing wrong with Synaptic, I use it often.
[07:27] <VIrUZ_> apt get puts synaptic to shame
[07:27] <gbutler289> so if I do a sudo apt-get install <package> does it automatically install the package
[07:27] <PurpZeY> VIrUZ_: They are not really....competing...they serve different purposes for different things.
[07:28] <PurpZeY> gbutler289: it should
[07:28] <VIrUZ_> different purposes ?
[07:28] <VIrUZ_> LOL
[07:29] <n2diy> PurpZeY: VIrUZ, Synaptic is just a GUI front end for apt-
[07:29] <n2diy> apt-get
[07:29] <mariocesar_bo> hi, where can i see some release notes from the linux-restricted-modules?
[07:29] <gbutler289> so this is what I'm getting now.....E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily available)
[07:29] <holycow> and apt is a frontend for dpkg
[07:29] <jeremysan> Can anybody help me with NDISwrapper?
[07:29] <tritium> mariocesar_bo: /usr/share/doc/linux-restricted-modules-generic/changelog.gz
[07:30] <VIrUZ_> and dpkg is a frontend for make install
[07:30] <Zilus> jeremysan, I suggets you to just ask, if someone is capable of helping, surelly will answer
[07:30] <gbutler289> any ideas on that error?
[07:31] <n2diy> And dpkg is a front end for some compiler? gcc?
[07:31] <mariocesar_bo> tritium: thanks :)
[07:31] <holycow> ummm ... no.
[07:31] <n2diy> gbutler289: you have an open lock file that needs to be killed.
[07:32] <Selanit> Hiya.  Question: Whenever I start Firefox, the window is flush left with the edge of my screen.  I want it centered.  Any idea how I can force it to remember its position?
[07:32] <lucifermournings> Hello.  I was wondering if anyone could tell me to how limit a user account to just their home directory and limited commands.
[07:32] <VIrUZ_> n2diy is geting evereyone obssessed by death
[07:32] <gbutler289> o.k. obvious question how can I identify it and how do I kill it?
[07:32] <n2diy> lucifermournings: research linux kiosks.
[07:33] <zerokill88> preaction no but i will check it out thanks
[07:33] <n2diy> VIrUZ:??
[07:33] <lucifermournings> Many thanks n2diy.

[07:36] <jeremysan> Hi all.  I'm trying to get NDISwrapper to work, but when I type "sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper," i get an error saying it could not find it.  How can I make it find it?
[07:36] <ajax4_> tritium, holycow: How does it work? Is it like a load-balancer?
[07:36] <n2diy> ajax4_:  run lshw, do you see cpu1?
[07:36] <Selanit> Has anyone else had any crashes lately?  I had four in one evening last week ...

[07:38] <n4pp3lbl00d> yes thanks !
[07:38] <n2diy> ajax4_:  cool, smb is running both cpus
[07:38] <jeremysan> Hi all.  I'm trying to get NDISwrapper to work, but when I type "sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper," i get an error saying it could not find it.  How can I make it find it?
[07:38] <Selanit> Ooohhhh!  He wanted apple style desktop widgets

[07:38] <n4pp3lbl00d> and whats the name of the programm that show me cpu,memory,hdd usw on my desktop background?
[07:39] <Swabby> jeremysan: do you have good access to the internet?
[07:39] <holycow> gdesklets
[07:39] <holycow> there are a few other
[07:39] <holycow> s
[07:39] <n2diy> ajax4_:  yes, makes things happen a _little_ faster. :)
[07:39] <jeremysan> Yes I have good access and connection to the internet
[07:39] <Swabby> jeremysan: why don't you just download the tar file?
[07:39] <CrashNBurn> where can I find a list of wifi cards that are compatible with 7.04 out of the box?
[07:39] <Swabby> http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/NDIS_Wrapper#Downloading_.26_Installing_ndiswrapper
[07:39] <holycow> !wifi
[07:39] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:39] <Swabby> May be a little bit faster...
[07:40] <n2diy> ! hardware | CrashNBurn
[07:40] <ubotu> CrashNBurn: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[07:40] <jeremysan> Swabby, forgive me for being so noob at this, but after downloading the tar file, what do i do with it to install it?
[07:40] <holycow> or on the wiki
[07:40] <n4pp3lbl00d> thank you holycow
[07:40] <zerokill88> what format does ubuntu take for the themes???
[07:40] <Swabby> jeremy: well first step is to get the tar...off of sourceforge..then you do a tar -zxvf nameoftar.tar
[07:40] <holycow> more n2diy to be thanked
[07:40] <Swabby> jeremy: that will decompress it
[07:40] <jeremysan> can you type the exact line so i can paste it ?
[07:40] <SirSherlock> hi, from console (noX) how would i turn off the screen???
[07:40] <holycow> oh wrong guy, yw
[07:41] <jeremysan> im not so familiar with all of these things.
[07:41] <n2diy> holycow: ??, thanks anyway, don't know why?
[07:41] <Selanit> When I need to install ndiswrapper and haven't got it, I usually download the .deb files for ndiswrapper from packages.ubuntu.com and then install them by right-clicking and selecting the install option.
[07:41] <Swabby> Selanit's method may be easier for you
[07:41] <m0u5e> after setting up imwheel, my touchpad's sidescroll acts as 'back and forward"
[07:41] <m0u5e> how do i get it to just sidescroll as normal like before? :X
[07:42] <zerokill88> what format does ubuntu take for the themes???
[07:42] <Selanit> Keep in mind that ndiswrapper has a couple of dependencies - make sure you get all of them.  There are either two or three .deb files total, if I recall correctly
[07:42] <Zenji> Ok
[07:42] <Zenji> Ive looked but I cant get real player.
[07:42] <Zenji> I dont find it in my packages.
[07:42] <Selanit> It's always struck me as odd that ndiswrapper isn't included on the livecd.
[07:43] <Swabby> zenji: why not?
[07:43] <n2diy> Selanit: probably a license issue.
[07:43] <ajax4_> zerokill88: What do you mean by "format" ?
[07:43] <Swabby> zenji: why don't you do a "sudo apt-get install realplay"
[07:44] <Selanit> Isn't it GPL?  I mean, Canonical doesn't put proprietary stuff on their servers.
[07:44] <Zenji> I did that.
[07:44] <Zenji> Its not in my packages Swabby
[07:44] <Swabby> you can try to do the .bin file
[07:44] <Zenji> Do you know?
[07:44] <zerokill88> nm, i just found out you have to keep the packages packed. ajax4_
[07:44] <n2diy> Selanit: Who knows? But they don't distribute it either?!?!
[07:44] <mEck0> I have cutted a bit in an mp3-file in Audacity, and want to export it to mp3, but get the error that libmp3lame.so doesn't exist :S Why is that? I have lame and some belonging packages installed from the repository.
[07:45] <Swabby> Zenji: http://www.real.com/linux
[07:45] <Zenji> Sigh
[07:45] <Zenji> I did that.
[07:45] <Zenji> It has a .bin
[07:45] <Swabby> did you chmod +x the file?
[07:45] <Selanit> n2diy: Eh?  Not sure I understand the exclamation
[07:45] <CrashNBurn> what's better for ububtu wifi usb or pcmcia>
[07:45] <CrashNBurn> ?
[07:45] <Zenji> How do you do that?
[07:45] <ajax4_> zerokill88: You can find a bunch of themes on http://art.gnome.org. Yeah, just download the compressed theme files and you can add them like that.
[07:45] <Zenji> Im new to ubuntu.
[07:45] <Dr_willis> CrashNBurn,  avoide the usb wireless gizmos
[07:45] <moparfan90> hello
[07:46] <vrkhans> Swabby: how we can install the real player
[07:46] <Swabby> Zenji: you'll need to get into a shell...browse over to whatever path your .bin is in
[07:46] <Zenji> ?
[07:46] <n2diy> Selanit: Canocial doesn't distribute the software, but it is available in the repos? Go figure?!??
[07:46] <moparfan90> how do i open a file with the extension of .r00
[07:46] <Swabby> Zenji: then do a chmod +x RealPlayer10GOLD.bin and sudo ./RealPlayer10GOLD.bin to execute it
[07:46] <Jamesinator> moparfan90: It's a split RAR archive.
[07:47] <Swabby> moparfan90: that's a RAR file......you'll need some type of uncompression utility for linux that opens .rar's
[07:47] <Dr_willis> !rar
[07:47] <ubotu> rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[07:47] <moparfan90> thanks
[07:47] <dgurion> how do I get Ubuntu to display non-unicode cyrillic characters?
[07:47] <Selanit> n2diy: Oh, I get it.  It's in the repository.  You can apt-get it.  But only if you have a working internet connection.  And the only time you NEED ndiswrapper is when you're trying to set up a wireless card ...
[07:47] <laufwerkfehler> non-free but the demo never expires ;_
[07:48] <Zenji> Permission denied.
[07:48] <Zenji> Why do they do this to me :(
[07:48] <Swabby> Zenji: LOL
[07:48] <Swabby> Zenji: when are you getting permission denied?
[07:48] <Zenji> I had the package from Canonsomething.
[07:48] <laufwerkfehler> Zenji, did u remember to sudo?
[07:48] <Zenji> In the terminal
[07:48] <Swabby> at chmod +X?
[07:48] <n2diy> Selanit: Yes, I don't know the legal issues, but you can get it if you want it, but it isn't on the iso.
[07:49] <Selanit> n2diy: Right.
[07:49] <Swabby> zenji: you'll need to do it as a sudo command since you may not have permission
[07:49] <Zenji> UH
[07:49] <Zenji> Swabby
[07:49] <Zenji> It says
[07:49] <Selanit> In fact, now I'm all curious.  I think I'll go do some googling to figure out what the legal issues are.
[07:49] <m0u5e> ndiswrapper shouldn't be illegal should it? If you have the hardware, you should also be able to use the drivers...
[07:49] <Zenji> Enter the complete path to the directory where yo uwant RealPlayer to be installed.
[07:49] <Swabby> m0u5e: ndiswrapper is opensource, drivers are opensource...i wouldn't worry about it
[07:49] <Zenji> You must specify the full
[07:49] <Zenji> pathname of the directory and have write privileges to
[07:49] <Zenji> the chosen directory.
[07:50] <Zenji> Now what?
[07:50] <m0u5e> swabby: not all drivers are open source
[07:50] <m0u5e> swabby: especially not windows drivers
[07:50] <Zenji> OH and Swabby... it says...  [/home/computer/RealPlayer] :  after that.
[07:50] <n2diy> Selanit: Ok, have fun, see ya next year, or sometime after you get your law degree!? :)
[07:50] <Swabby> m0u5e: if i own hte device..to me it's opensource.. :)
[07:50] <Sonicadvance1> hehe
[07:50] <Sonicadvance1> swabby
[07:50] <Sonicadvance1> :D
[07:50] <Swabby> serious..i understand pirating a copy of win 2003 server
[07:50] <m0u5e> lol
[07:50] <Zenji> :-)
[07:51] <Swabby> but drivers? ..comeone..they're all on www.driverguide.com
[07:51] <Swabby> you know?
[07:51] <Selanit> n2diy: ye gods, no!  I've already got two master's degrees, and I'll have a third in another couple years.  At some point you just have to draw the line and move out into the Real World.
[07:51] <m0u5e> they're not open source though
[07:51] <moparfan90> is the codex xvid installed automaticly? or do i have to install it
[07:51] <Swabby> zenji: try sudo chmod +x nameof.bin
[07:51] <Zenji> Swabby... I uh... did what you said... now on the terminal it says "Enter the complete path where you want RealPlayer to be installed"
[07:51] <Zenji> No its fine I just dont know where im sposed to put it.
[07:51] <Zenji>  [/home/computer/RealPlayer] :
[07:51] <Zenji> Thats what it says after that.
[07:51] <Swabby> Zenji: i've never used Ubuntu before so i'm kinda winging this...
[07:52] <n2diy> Selanit: Roger that, welcome to Intellectual Property Rights.
[07:52] <Swabby> i use fedora but most of the stuff is about the same
[07:52] <m0u5e> moparfan90: if your using a proponent of the gstreamer project, just install the gstreamer plugin for xvid
[07:52] <Swabby> ubuntu is a little bit more user friendly
[07:52] <Zenji> :(
[07:52] <Zenji> This sux.
[07:52] <Zenji> Well
[07:52] <Zenji> After I did that in the termnial.
[07:52] <Zenji> All you said.
[07:53] <Zenji> Its saying... "Enter the complete path to the directory where you want RealPlayer to be installed."
[07:53] <Zenji> Directory:  [/home/computer/RealPlayer] :
[07:53] <Swabby> hmmm
[07:54] <Swabby> for poops and giggles try showing the path /home/computer/RP
[07:54] <Swabby> or giving it that
[07:54] <tritium> !enter > Zenji
[07:55] <Zenji> ?
[07:55] <Swabby> how far are you getting zenji..did the chmod +x work?
[07:55] <Sonicadvance1> I think you did it wrong
[07:55] <Zenji> This is confusing.
[07:55] <Zenji> Cus its an installation.
[07:55] <Zenji> Copying RealPlayer files...configure system-wide symbolic links? [Y/n] : ......y.
[07:55] <Zenji> enter the prefix for symbolic links [/usr] : ......
[07:55] <Zenji> WTF
[07:55] <Swabby> press enter
[07:55] <Swabby> use the default
[07:55] <Sonicadvance1> o_O
[07:55] <tritium> Zenji: please don't use the enter key as a substitute for periods or proper punctuation
[07:56] <Zenji> I just copy pasted it.
[07:56] <Zenji> Sry...
[07:56] <Sonicadvance1> tritium cheated =o
[07:56] <jeremysan> Hi all, I'm trying to make my NDISwrapper work, but im not sure if it's installed properly, if at all, and I'm not familiar enough with ubuntu or linux in general to follow the wiki tutorial on sourceforge.  Any help?
[07:56] <tritium> Sonicadvance1: ?
[07:56] <n2diy> tritium: they changed the bots name??? :)
[07:56] <tritium> n2diy: heh, not quite ;)
[07:56] <Sonicadvance1> you messed up the command and you had to type it yourself :P
[07:57] <tritium> Sonicadvance1: uh, no, but I type fast enough not to worry about it
[07:57] <shrimants> hiya, my installation is completely screwed up. i have like 3 different kernels. its a long story, but basically, everything on my laptop is failing and i dont know how to fix any of it
[07:57] <shrimants> i can be more elaborate if anyone wants to help
[07:57] <m0u5e> shrimants: o_O
[07:57] <shrimants> yeah
[07:57] <Swabby> shrimants; whats your goal at this point?
[07:57] <shrimants> a GUI
[07:57] <n2diy> shrimants: do any of the kernels work?
[07:57] <Sonicadvance1> Fine >_>
[07:57] <shrimants> nope
[07:57] <shrimants> well i mean recovery mode does
[07:57] <tritium> Sonicadvance1: there was nothing wrong the the command
[07:57] <shrimants> but yea
[07:57] <Swabby> shrimants: what kind of gui? a linux gui?
[07:58] <shrimants> as in i want X to start
[07:58] <shrimants> and not crash
[07:58] <Swabby> shrimants: cna you wipe it clean?
[07:58] <shrimants> yeah no prob
[07:58] <mx544> My Ubuntu load is really slow. Any advice?
[07:58] <shrimants> its got nothing on it, just ubuntu stuff
[07:58] <Swabby> why don't you wipe it clean and reinstall? did it work before?
[07:58] <Swabby> mx544: whats your specs?
[07:58] <shrimants> because for one, i cant boot off of the live CD
[07:59] <macogw> why not?
[07:59] <mx544> It's not my computer, it just recently started doing it the last couple boots
[07:59] <shrimants> i need to use the alternate install CD to even install it
[07:59] <mx544> But since you asked 2GHz dual core 2GB RAM
[07:59] <macogw> shrimants: cant redo that?
[07:59] <macogw> mx544: k yeah that shouldnt be slow
[07:59] <n2diy> Swabby: are you familiar with _tab_ command line completion?
[07:59] <Swabby> mx544: you have plenty of resources....i wonder if you have a driver off or something...
[07:59] <macogw> mx544: system > admin > sytem monitor.  anything hogging?
[07:59] <Swabby> n2diy: yes sir
[08:00] <mx544> ho
[08:00] <shrimants> macgw, its not that i cant, its that i spent like hours getting even this far
[08:00] <Zenji> Swabby
[08:00] <Zenji> Its working.
[08:00] <Zenji> Thanks
[08:00] <Swabby> n2diy: ohh..actually no..i'm not
[08:00] <shrimants> like upon boot, i have no internet, no ethernet, nothing
[08:00] <Swabby> Zenji: no shit? awesome
[08:00] <wastedf> hi guys.  swapped which partition my ubuntu was on.. moved it from /hda3 to /hda2. went into /boot/grub/menu.lst, and updated my UUID's.. and changed the hd0, setting by minusing one since i moved it from hda3->hda2.  I boot, I get a "Error 22" on grub... any ideas??
[08:00] <Zenji> Ya
[08:00] <n2diy> Swabby: ok, hard to follow your efforts, since I don't see who you are replying to.
[08:00] <Zenji> Thx
[08:00] <Swabby> zenji: that's awesome.....
[08:00] <mx544> Not at all, CPU usage at 6.0%, and RAM usage only 15%
[08:00] <Zenji> I logged off to make sure its fine.
[08:00] <Zenji> Ya thanks.
[08:00] <Swabby> n2diy: i'll use the completion with tab..sorry
[08:00] <Sonicadvance1> It can't find the partition, I think that is what error 22 is
[08:00] <_nnx_> Since I upgraded to Feisty from EDgy I'm having some really weird behavior. Periodically X goe sunresponsive and CPU power starts getting eaten up by random apps, including init.  once X goes down some of the apps that should have gone down with the X session stick around and all in all it's an insane mess.  Can anyone help me?  This has caused me to basically have to just hit the power button at least twice and I had to kill gdm now.
[08:01] <shrimants> when i start, i have pretty much nothing at all
[08:01] <shrimants> and then it would be nice to have wifi
[08:01] <Swabby> Zenji: glad i could help
[08:01] <shanky> good morning
[08:01] <n2diy> Swabby: roger.
[08:01] <shrimants> but i cant with out the card being supported
[08:01] <holycow> _nnx, there was a bug that i ran into just like that ... it had to do with the ide drivers dying and the os trying to restart them periodically
[08:01] <shrimants> basically, i think this current version of ubuntu supports like nothing
[08:01] <shrimants> hardware wise
[08:01] <shrimants> on my comp
[08:02] <holycow> the system would hang for 30 seconds or more than go back to normal
[08:02] <macogw> shrimants: did it work at all after install?
[08:02] <Zenji> Ya
[08:02] <shanky> I have been reading about upstart, the replacement of sysvinit, but I can't find how to de feinde the initdefault as usually done in /etc/inittab
[08:02] <Zenji> Thx again Swabby
[08:02] <shrimants> just the bash shell
[08:02] <n2diy> shrimants: how new is your computer?
[08:02] <shanky> any tip?
[08:02] <holycow> i don't know if this was fixed, however try the bug tracker to track down any possible solutions
[08:02] <Swabby> grr..vmware is on crack
[08:02] <shrimants> extremely
[08:02] <macogw> shrimants: howd your gui go away?
[08:02] <holycow> for us i just went back to LTS version
[08:02] <holycow> dapepr
[08:02] <shrimants> its HP Pavillion DV9500t
[08:02] <holycow> !malone
[08:02] <ubotu> launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's Bounty and Bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/
[08:02] <shrimants> gui was never there to begine with
[08:02] <macogw> shrimants: and what all parts are in it?
[08:02] <tritium> shanky: debian/ubuntu only use two runlevels anyway
[08:02] <arooni> hye folks!
[08:02] <mx544> Helppppp meeeeeee
[08:02] <jeremysan> Hi all, I'm trying to make my NDISwrapper work, but im not sure if it's installed properly, if at all, and I'm not familiar enough with ubuntu or linux in general to follow the wiki tutorial on sourceforge.  Any help?
[08:03] <macogw> shrimants: oh then howd you figure out the lack of inernet?
[08:03] <mx544> How can I boot faster
[08:03] <shanky> tritium: I just want no to run X by default
[08:03] <wastedf> hi!  i followed a tutorial on moving your ubuntu by backing it up.. did everything right, and I boot and get Grub .. then Boot 22.. any idea?  tried google
[08:03] <shrimants> from here, someone helped me configure eth0
[08:03] <n2diy> shrimants: ok, so the modules/drivers haven't been reversed engineered for it yet, that is probably the problem.
[08:03] <Swabby> mx544: how slow is it?
[08:03] <shrimants> yeah
[08:03] <shrimants> like for instance
[08:03] <shrimants> i have a nvidia 8400m gs graphics card
[08:03] <holycow> wastedf, it just can't find the kernle
[08:03] <shrimants> so no GUI from that
[08:03] <macogw> shrimants: by the way, if you dont have a router, your modem might need a power cycle before itll be willing to assign an ip address to your comp. i had that problem before
[08:03] <shrimants> nvidia's own linux installer doesnt work
[08:03] <tritium> shanky: you don't accomplish that by changing default runlevels.  You either use update-rc.d, or chmod -x the initscript for the display manager
[08:03] <mx544> It hangs at the quarter or halfway point most of the time for about 35 seconds, then loads
[08:04] <macogw> shrimants: ok then thats what we should work on fist
[08:04] <macogw> *first
[08:04] <shrimants> no its not that, i just have no GUI to configure wireless and im a complete linx noob
[08:04] <holycow> you will need to either reinstall grub or just fix your menu.list, fstab and device.map files to point to the right places
[08:04] <shrimants> wireless?
[08:04] <macogw> shrimants: oh you said ethernet too
[08:04] <Swabby> mx544: there's some type of service that it's gotta be having trouble with
[08:04] <macogw> shrimants: what wireless card do you have?
[08:04] <wastedf> holycow:  I updated my grub.. but apparently I did it wrong.
[08:04] <arooni> i'm having massive problems getting dual monitors to work on ubuntu 7.04 and with my geforce fx 5200.  i have two 19" lcds that i want to get 1280x1024 resolution on.  however... whether using twinview or xinerama... i can only get 1280x1024 on the primary and 800x600 on the secondary. when trying to 'auto detect' the second monitor via nvidia-settings.. it fails... can i get some help? ...
[08:04] <arooni> ...i've spent 5 hours working on this
[08:04] <mx544> what service do you think?
[08:04] <shrimants> ipw4965AGN
[08:04] <macogw> shrimants: that should work fine
[08:04] <holycow> wastedf, possible.  what do you mean by backin gup ubuntu anyway? all you need is your /home dir
[08:04] <Swabby> mx544: dunno..i'd have to see it boot..if you watch you may be able to catch what it's hanging on
[08:04] <shrimants> oh then how do i do that without a GUI
[08:05] <shrimants> i dont know terminal at all
[08:05] <shanky> tritium: ok, thanks
[08:05] <holycow> after your reinstall clean just put /home back, make sure your user account exists and you are done
[08:05] <wastedf> holycow; heh.  longgg story.. lol.  basically, i moved the entire installation from hda3 to hda.. i needed to re-size a few partitions.
[08:05] <tritium> shanky: there are directions in the debian manual that would apply for ubuntu as well
[08:05] <holycow> sure, why?
[08:05] <wastedf> but grub can't find it, but i redirected the menu.lst
[08:05] <Swabby> mx544: if your running a desktop you may be able to turn some of the bullshit off...like if it's trying to run ftp servers, web servers, etc.
[08:05] <macogw> shrimants: i dont know the terminal commands to find and connect to wireless. someone here might...
[08:05] <mx544> How can I, it is on the splash screen not my login screen it is where the orange bar loads
[08:05] <macogw> shrimants: but those drivers and firmware should be there already
[08:05] <holycow> wastedf, you also need to check the other two files i told you about
[08:05] <wastedf> updated the UUID, and the root hd
[08:05] <wastedf> I updated fstab.. fstab doesn't activate until you boot, right?
[08:06] <holycow> i image ubuntu regularly between non identical hds and ide vs sata drives
[08:06] <jeremysan> Hi all, I'm trying to make my NDISwrapper work, but im not sure if it's installed properly, if at all, and I'm not familiar enough with ubuntu or linux in general to follow the wiki tutorial on sourceforge.  Any help?
[08:06] <holycow> right
[08:06] <macogw> shrimants: do you get a black screen with grey clouds when you use the live cd?
[08:06] <shrimants> no
[08:06] <arooni> has anyone gotten dual monitors working on ubuntu with a geforce card?
[08:06] <holycow> wastedf, your menu.lst file has two places you haveto change btw
[08:06] <wastedf> well, i can't even get past grub.. so fstab is useless to me now; what does device.map do, holycow?
[08:06] <tritium> arooni: yes
[08:06] <wastedf> I changed all five of them.. I had 5 test options, i changed 'em all
[08:06] <shrimants> i get a TTY Job Access control is turned off error or something fo that sort
[08:06] <macogw> shrimants: ok one of my friends had that with his new hp and i knew i could pull that answer out easily if that was it
[08:06] <arooni> tritium: hwod you do it?
[08:07] <wastedf> I'm guessing I guessed the root            (hd0,1) wrong..  how can I doube check holycow?
[08:07] <n2diy> macogw: what happens when you "ping 127.0.0.1"? use ctrl+z to kill it, if it works?
[08:07] <tritium> arooni: followed /usr/share/doc/nvidia-glx/README.txt.gz, mostly
[08:07] <holycow> ah, okay uuid = kopt .. you need to make sure kopt is correct as well of course looks like you did that
[08:07] <macogw> n2diy: suspends the process so you can background it, i think
[08:07] <wastedf> kopt ??
[08:07] <wastedf> I updated the UUID too
[08:07] <arooni> tritium: mind pasting your xorg conf file?
[08:07] <wastedf> just copy/pasted from dumpe2fs
[08:08] <arooni> tritium: i cant find that file
[08:08] <macogw> n2diy: i dont play with background and foreground processes though
[08:08] <arooni> the oneyoure frerferncing
[08:08] <n2diy> macogw: what happens when you "ping 127.0.0.1"? use ctrl+z to kill it, if it works? Do it, and tell me what happened
[08:08] <holycow> wastedf, load up a live cd and examine the hd, i can't run you through the process of tracking that down manually tho ... don't have the time.  just hoping to toss you some info you can use
[08:08] <tritium> arooni: make sure you have nvidia-glx installed.  That's a separate laptop.
[08:08] <wastedf> i'm on the live cd now :p
[08:08] <jamman> hello all.
[08:08] <Soliah> How can I specify screen resolution in another WM? (namely wmii)
[08:08] <arooni> tritium: i didnt have nvidia-glx installed
[08:08] <macogw> shrimants: try this "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx"
[08:09] <shrimants> tried taht
[08:09] <macogw> shrimants: do it without the quotes
[08:09] <shrimants> didnt work
[08:09] <n2diy> macogw: we aren't playing with backround and forground procs, we are trying to talk to your computer.
[08:09] <tritium> arooni: are you using "nv" driver, then?
[08:09] <arooni> tritium: i'm using the nvidia driver
[08:09] <arooni> oops
[08:09] <macogw> shrimants: oh. did you do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" afterward?
[08:09] <arooni> i forgot i'm on a different comp
[08:09] <shrimants> yup
[08:09] <wastedf> holycow: so double check menu.lst.. I had to mess up there since fstab doesn't activate until you get past grub, right?
[08:09] <arooni> silly me
[08:09] <shrimants> i also tried it with glx-new
[08:09] <macogw> n2diy: why do you want to talk to my computer?
[08:09] <holycow> wastedf, correct
[08:09] <wastedf> holycow: do you know where I can verify what root hd setting grub uses?
[08:10] <holycow> wastedf, just tray /dev/hda or similar
[08:10] <n2diy> macogw: I thought you where trying to config your network? Did I reply to the wrong nick?
[08:10] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> murning
[08:10] <tritium> arooni: in the next release (gutsy), you can hotplug monitors, and X should take care of things automagically
[08:10] <bruenig|laptop> !hi | TWIZTEDbytheloop
[08:10] <ubotu> TWIZTEDbytheloop: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[08:10] <wastedf> holycow: -> root            (hd0,1) is what I have.  It needs to boot off hda2.  I read a tutorial that said hda2 = minus one = '1"
[08:10] <Slipstreaminsano> would anyone be able to help me with a samba/webmin problem
[08:10] <arooni> tritium: yes i heard that but i need help now ;p
[08:11] <holycow> wastedf, lol i can't remember :)
[08:11] <wastedf> shiat
[08:11] <wastedf> it's got to be
[08:11] <macogw> n2diy: i was telling shrimants that on wired connections sometimes the modem needs to be power cycled before itll assign a different computer an IP which is a problem you don't get if you have a router but which drove me nuts
[08:11] <holycow> wastedf, lol sorry, i had a few beers
[08:11] <wastedf> the root.. because the root=UUID= in the kernel line is right
[08:11] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> does anyone know the way to chack youre hdd on errors
[08:11] <wastedf> so it HAS to be the root hd0,1 line
[08:11] <nightglider28> wastedf: Yes, hda2 would be (hd0,1)
[08:12] <shrimants> does anyone know how to connect to a wireless connection through terminal?
[08:12] <n2diy> macogw: Ok, so I don't need to explain how to troubleshoot with ping, to you. GL
[08:12] <macogw> shrimants: after installing those nvidia drivers, did you do as the info for that package says and run "sudo nvidia-glx-config enable"?
[08:12] <shrimants> yup
[08:12] <macogw> n2diy: yeah i know about ping
[08:12] <tritium> !wireless | shrimants
[08:12] <ubotu> shrimants: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[08:12] <macogw> shrimants: and did you do the xorg reconfigure?
[08:12] <nightglider28> shrimants: I think it's ifconfig <interface> ESSID "<network>"
[08:12] <macogw> shrimants: because that updates xorg.conf i think
[08:12] <holycow> wastedf, ah i see feisty does menu.lst a wee bit different
[08:12] <bruenig|laptop> nightglider28, iwconfig isn't it
[08:13] <nightglider28> bruenig|laptop: It might be that.
[08:13] <nightglider28> I can never remember. :S
[08:13] <bruenig|laptop> for wireless I believe so
[08:13] <macogw> iwconfig sounds right
[08:13] <holycow> i'd haveto play with it to see exactly what its doing, on dapper its a bit simpler although the mechanics are probably the same
[08:13] <macogw> "sudo iwconfig scanning" to find a network, i think?
[08:13] <tritium> shrimants: if you use network-manager, then your /etc/network/interfaces may not be configured for manual configuration via cli, but it can be done
[08:13] <bruenig|laptop> macogw, iwlist interface scan
[08:13] <macogw> tritium: shrimants lacks a gui
[08:13] <jamman> its "iwlist wlan0 scan"
[08:13] <nightglider28> macogw: ifconfig <interface> scan
[08:13] <nightglider28> Err.
[08:13] <linux_user400354> i am using dual monitors. my second monitor has the panels now, and but i want them on the first monitor. how can i do that?
[08:13] <macogw> bruenig|laptop: oh well thank you
[08:13] <jamman> maybe.
[08:13] <nightglider28> *iwconfig <interface> scan
[08:13] <tritium> macogw: I know, which is why I was referring to cli
[08:14] <nightglider28> Bleh.
[08:14] <bassgoon> if I want to install os x on my macbook pro should I boot the cd as a "windows" cd or by holding C. If I hold C, it wants to make an EFI part, if I boot it like a windows disk it doesn't.
[08:14] <wastedf> holycow: got one more second?  I ran grub off the live cd.. it foun the rot.. but setup isn't a recognized command to write it to the MBR
[08:14] <macogw> tritium: they havent used NM yet though
[08:14] <bassgoon> ack ubuntu not os x
[08:14] <macogw> tritium: first boot and X is busted
[08:14] <bruenig|laptop> nightglider28, that one is iwlist though not iwconfig, if you didn't catch that
[08:14] <nightglider28> Oh.
[08:14] <holycow> wastedf, yeah there is a weirdass way to run it, i forget, i once had to do it and decided reinstalling from scratch was easier.  you will haveto google that too
[08:14] <holycow> sorry i'm being completely useless today
[08:14] <holycow> lol
[08:15] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> be back in a sesc
[08:15] <crippy-boy> Hey, I know ubuntu stopped releasing official PPC versions but is it possible to upgrade via repos?
[08:15] <holycow> !ppc
[08:15] <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
[08:15] <Meshezabeel> heya, when I run a java program with voice files under windows, it works fine, but under linux the last half second of the sound clip gets cut off on all the sound files, could this be an audio driver issue?
[08:16] <crippy-boy> Thanks holycow
[08:16] <macogw> hey guys whats a 2D driver we can get shrimants set up with (nvidia geforce 8400m) to start with so other stuff can be figured out with gui, then 3D can happen later?
[08:16] <Meshezabeel> sometimes even the first half second of the sound clip gets cut off, sometimes both, but it is usually just the last
[08:16] <bruenig|laptop> macogw, nv should work
[08:17] <macogw> shrimants: "sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[08:17] <nightglider28> nvidia also works, I think.
[08:17] <macogw> bruenig|laptop: ok will try to walk through getting that going
[08:17] <shrimants> that computer isnt even on right now, its soo oscrewed
[08:17] <shrimants> wait wait
[08:17] <shrimants> ok
[08:17] <maxwell> hello i am new ubuntu user i need help

[08:17] <foxjazz> maxwell: dont' shoot me!
[08:17] <shrimants> ok one sec, i gotta turn this on
[08:17] <arooni> tritium: do you know if dual displays works well with  not hte nvidia driver
[08:18] <jamman> maxwell, go ahead and ask.
[08:18] <bruenig|laptop> hmmm
[08:18] <tritium> arooni: _not_ ?
[08:18] <foxjazz> arooni: works great in windows
[08:18] <maxwell> my video cannat not play

[08:18] <macogw> shrimants: im gonna try to get you a working GUI for now and then after the rest is straightened out we'll figure out how to get 3D, ok?
[08:18] <jamman> maxwell, what format?
[08:19] <foxjazz> maxwell: yea, what you playing it with.
[08:19] <maxwell> i want someone to show me how to install yahoo messenger on unbuntu
[08:19] <bruenig|laptop> maxwell, use gaim
[08:19] <arooni> tritium: meaning should i try the 'nv' driver cuz the nvidia one isnt working os hot
[08:19] <shrimants> ok i just autobooted into whatever grub was pointing to
[08:19] <foxjazz> maxwell: gaim, it's under internet once you install it
[08:19] <maxwell> i use it but it cant play
[08:19] <bruenig|laptop> maxwell, what is your native language
[08:19] <shrimants> ok, now X is trying to start and crashing
[08:19] <maxwell> foxjazz i want to know how to install yahoo messenger
[08:20] <bruenig|laptop> maxwell, you don't, you use gaim
[08:20] <maxwell> english
[08:20] <nightglider28> shrimants: Is it attempting a higher res than your monitor can do?
[08:20] <shrimants> ok my nvidia kernel modules do not math up
[08:20] <foxjazz> maxwell: got to yahoo and download the linux client. (if they have one)
[08:20] <shrimants> no it is not
[08:20] <jeremysan> Hi all, I'm trying to make my NDISwrapper work, but im not sure if it's installed properly, if at all, and I'm not familiar enough with ubuntu or linux in general to follow the wiki tutorial on sourceforge.  Any help?
[08:20] <tritium> arooni: I may have only used "nvidia" with TwinView.
[08:20] <maxwell> foxjazz please give the url
[08:20] <bruenig|laptop> foxjazz, maxwell they have a linux client but it is awful and unmaintained, it is worse than the gaim implementation
[08:20] <jamman> maxwell, try using gaim. it has yahoo support.
[08:20] <shrimants> nightglider, i have kernel version 9755 but nvidia has kernel 7184
[08:20] <foxjazz> maxwell: www.yahoo.com
[08:21] <maxwell> ok thanks
[08:21] <pr4bh> :)
[08:21] <maxwell> foxjazz what is your email address
[08:21] <maxwell> i want to meet you
[08:21] <Saint_Belmont> LmAo.
[08:21] <nightglider28> rofl
[08:21] <maxwell> i want you to teach me
[08:21] <Saint_Belmont> Internet luv
[08:21] <tritium> maxwell, foxjazz:  keep in mind that this channel is logged
[08:21] <n2diy> pr4bh: qsl?
[08:21] <shrimants> iwconfig returns lo no wireless extensions and eth0 no wireless extensions
[08:22] <bruenig|laptop> shrimants, so you don't have a wireless card or the wireless card isn't detected
[08:22] <nightglider28> shrimants: Do you ..nevermind..
[08:22] <maxwell> i am a new ubuntu user and i love it
[08:22] <foxjazz> maxwell: not in the mood right now boy
[08:22] <maxwell> why foxjazz
[08:22] <shrimants> bruenig|laptop, i guess its not detected
[08:22] <maxwell> i am a new ubuntu
[08:22] <foxjazz> maxwell: why is why, why is why not
[08:23] <shrimants> cuz i definately have one
[08:23] <nightglider28> shrimants: Try ifconfig -a
[08:23] <foxjazz> why don't they have ipconfig (and just make it standard like that?)
[08:23] <shrimants> ok, what am i supposed to be seeing
[08:24] <macogw> shrimants: do "lspci"
[08:24] <tritium> foxjazz: ifconfig _is_ standard
[08:24] <macogw> shrimants: make sure your wireless card is listed there
[08:24] <nightglider28> shrimants: Does it give you any wireless interfaces?
[08:24] <kga543> hey whats up guys
[08:24] <foxjazz> tritium: not on a windows dos command
[08:24] <shrimants> yeah
[08:24] <shrimants> Network Controller: intel Corporation Unknown Device
[08:24] <tritium> foxjazz: this is not a dos or windows channel
[08:24] <shrimants> :(
[08:24] <foxjazz> ip makes a lot more sense than if
[08:24] <kga543> i got a few questions for anyone who has time
[08:24] <nightglider28> inter*face*config :P
[08:24] <maxwell> fox jazz help me to master linux
[08:25] <foxjazz> nor is Linux common sense based which is most of it's problem.
[08:25] <jamman> foxjazz, inter face config, not just ip config.
[08:25] <Zenji> SDG'ed Video Out the A FFR
[08:25] <tritium> foxjazz: further, MS is not known to follow standars.  Rather, they tend to subvert existing ones or make up their own proprietary ones.
[08:25] <bruenig|laptop> foxjazz, linux is common sense based
[08:25] <jamman> foxjazz, it will do a lot more than just the ip.
[08:25] <bruenig|laptop> foxjazz, it all makes sense for the most part, it is very consistenhjt
[08:25] <shrimants> whats -a mean?
[08:25] <bruenig|laptop> consistent*
[08:25] <arooni> tritium: i can only get 800x600 on my second monitor... twinview wont let me set the resolution at 1280x1024... and when i try to overwiret the settings in "metamodes"... i get no output on my second monitor
[08:25] <arooni> ideas?
[08:25] <shrimants> i might as well learn as i try to fix this
[08:25] <nightglider28> shrimants: -a shows all network interfaces, active or not.
[08:25] <kga543> guys ive been using ubuntu exclusivly for a few weeks and i have noticed that its a little buggy on my pc
[08:25] <shrimants> ah i c
[08:26] <foxjazz> not so, when you type ipconfig it says no bash command... And what the hell is bash anyway
[08:26] <nightglider28> Or at least that makes sense to me. :P
[08:26] <foxjazz> mayebe it should be consistently butthead
[08:26] <shrimants> well i have an eth0, an eth0:avah and lo
[08:26] <foxjazz> instead of bash
[08:26] <jeremysan> Hi all, I'm trying to make my NDISwrapper work, but im not sure if it's installed properly, if at all, and I'm not familiar enough with ubuntu or linux in general to follow the wiki tutorial on sourceforge.  Any help?
[08:26] <maxwell> foxjazz teach me how to use the terminal
[08:26] <jamman> foxjazz, it is the comand exacuter.
[08:26] <shrimants> lo is dialup, eth0 is ethernet, which isnt connected and i dunno what eth0:avah is
[08:26] <tritium> foxjazz: watch your language
[08:26] <bruenig|laptop> foxjazz, bash is the name of the shell
[08:26] <JP79> i just installed tvtime and i cant get it to work.  it says "frames too short from USBVision".  "cannot open capture device /dev/video0".  i have direct tv cable box hooked up to hauppauge wintv-usb.
[08:26] <maxwell> i want to to master the commands
[08:26] <jamman> foxjazz, secondly, ip config is just a windows thing.
[08:26] <tritium> !bash | foxjazz
[08:26] <ubotu> foxjazz: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[08:27] <JP79> "no signal"
[08:27] <jamman> foxjazz, many, many other os'es use if config.
[08:27] <CrashNBur1> anyone here firmiliar with 3Com Megahertz 10 Mbps LAN PC Card? I need to figure out where to solder the leads to an rj45 cable to it
[08:27] <nightglider28> shrimants: It looks like you'll have to manually get your wireless card working.
[08:27] <shrimants> yup
[08:27] <jamman> foxjazz, just windows is messed up.
[08:27] <foxjazz> never said it wasn't powerful, just not user friendly
[08:27] <shrimants> so how do i do that?
[08:27] <shrimants> i even have ndiswrapper
[08:27] <foxjazz> I mean list instead of ls would work
[08:27] <bruenig|laptop> foxjazz, what do you mean, it all is very coherent and logical
[08:27] <r0b-> i cant get lsr to work in ubuntu feisty
[08:27] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> i am back
[08:27] <shrimants> or wait, i think it would be better to try this another time
[08:27] <foxjazz> or dir (which does work)
[08:27] <shrimants> because its like 2:30 am
[08:27] <nightglider28> shrimants: Well, try using a driver that is aimed at intle chipseets, first. :P
[08:27] <bruenig|laptop> foxjazz, dir doesn't make sense
[08:27] <shrimants> and im about to pass out
[08:27] <foxjazz> cd is the same and consistent
[08:27] <macogw> shrimants: ok found the issue with your graphics.  that card is newer than the most recent drivers on ubuntu.  youll need to get the driver from nvidia.  the downside of that is that after each kernel update youll have to reinstall those drivers.  you can put a script in your home drive to do it though so you can just run the script and itll do it and then reboot and it works
[08:27] <bruenig|laptop> foxjazz, what does dir mean
[08:28] <foxjazz> it's short for directory bonehead
[08:28] <maxwell> shrimant teach me how to use the terminal
[08:28] <bruenig|laptop> foxjazz, directory what
[08:28] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> i think i might have to burn my image again
[08:28] <maelya> Has anyone had trouble connecting to a ubuntu computer via a VNC viewer after installing Beryl?
[08:28] <foxjazz> directory of files
[08:28] <bruenig|laptop> foxjazz, lsdir maybe
[08:28] <bruenig|laptop> that makes sense
[08:28] <shrimants> macgow, i already know that and i already did that
[08:28] <jamman> foxjazz, because ls (list) makes more sense than dir which sounds like you would like to change directoryies.
[08:28] <bruenig|laptop> just saying directory doesn't make sense
[08:28] <tritium> foxjazz: please stop calling people names.  We have a code of conduct here
[08:28] <nightglider28> bruenig|laptop: Same effect as ls. :P
[08:28] <shrimants> the thing is, that it barely works
[08:28] <bruenig|laptop> nightglider28, I know what it is, I am making a point
[08:28] <shrimants> and after i did that, i ended up with the 3 different kernels
[08:28] <nightglider28> Ah, ok.
[08:28] <foxjazz> yea ls doesn't make as much sense as list
[08:28] <foxjazz> and list doesn't work
[08:28] <nightglider28> Carry on. :)
[08:28] <arooni> folks with twinview and my geforce 5200 card.... the nvidia-settings app can't detect my second monitor's resolutions.... it only lists 'auto'.  i need to set it to 1280x1024
[08:28] <arooni> ideas?
[08:28] <bruenig|laptop> foxjazz, ls makes plenty of sense, you are listing the contents
[08:28] <jamman> foxjazz, they are abbreviations.
[08:28] <foxjazz> list (no command found)
[08:29] <shrimants> oh well, i'll try here again when i have more motivation
[08:29] <jamman> *LiSt*
[08:29] <shrimants> right now my spirits are crushed
[08:29] <shrimants> adios for now
[08:29] <maxwell> help upgrade ubuntu 5.10 to 6.0
[08:29] <foxjazz> Yea, so why doesn't the real word work?
[08:29] <macogw> shrimants: it shouldve started out with at least 2 entries in grub
[08:29] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> i checked my cd an yes there was an error
[08:29] <bruenig|laptop> foxjazz, maybe you would prefer the command to be "listthecontentsofthecurrentdirectory"
[08:29] <macogw> shrimants: what do the kernels listed say?
[08:29] <foxjazz> That's why Unix hasn't ever been mainstream, and wont ever be.
[08:29] <jamman> foxjazz, because it is easier to type ls than list.
[08:29] <bruenig|laptop> foxjazz, then you would know it, that would be awesome to type
[08:29] <kga543> anyone know how to install gnome dock ?
[08:29] <maxwell> help me ubuntu 5.10
[08:29] <macogw> shrimants: you didnt recompile your whole kernel, did you?
[08:29] <shrimants> i might have
[08:29] <jamman> foxjazz, why dir instead of directory?
[08:29] <nightglider28> O.O
[08:29] <foxjazz> well both can do the same thing, did the programmers think of that
[08:29] <foxjazz> NOOOO they didn't
[08:29] <shrimants> i dont know,t here was a HUGE command i had to write
[08:29] <jamman> foxjazz, your points dont make much sense.
[08:30] <tritium> foxjazz: please take your trolling to #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:30] <shrimants> i just know that im at the latest kernel
[08:30] <bruenig|laptop> foxjazz, they are called aliases, if you are retarded you can set them
[08:30] <shrimants> and nvidia's stuff isnt
[08:30] <nightglider28> shrimants: Do you know the command?
[08:30] <maxwell> any one should help me to upgrade my ubuntu 5.10
[08:30] <shrimants> no, i forgot it
[08:30] <bruenig|laptop> foxjazz, alias list='ls'
[08:30] <JDMKING> hey!
[08:30] <nightglider28> :/
[08:30] <foxjazz> they aren't aliases
[08:30] <shrimants> it was from some news site
[08:30] <foxjazz> they are replacements
[08:30] <shrimants> vnews or something
[08:30] <nightglider28> Ugh.
[08:30] <tritium> foxjazz: no, you're mistaken.  He is in fact suggesting you setup aliases.
[08:30] <foxjazz> and meant to be cryptic because "programmers or linux brothers" get to be in a club
[08:30] <foxjazz> Yes, that would work
[08:30] <nightglider28> shrimants: Do uname -a in the termianl.
[08:31] <tritium> foxjazz: again, take your trolling to the offtopic channel
[08:31] <maxwell> shrimants help me to upgrade my ubuntu 5.10 to a new version
[08:31] <foxjazz> is there an alias file that we should load for everyone
[08:31] <foxjazz> that would make thins sooo much easier
[08:31] <bruenig|laptop> foxjazz, they are meant to be fast, when I am working in the shell I don't want to write novels, I want to get my information in as short of time as possible while still maintaining coherent and logical commands
[08:31] <jamman> maxwell, in your update window there should be a thing called distrobution upgrade or the like.
[08:31] <tritium> foxjazz: no need
[08:31] <foxjazz> and then we could distro it, and it would be soo much better.
[08:31] <bruenig|laptop> give me one command that doesn't make sense
[08:31] <shrimants> maxwell, download latest ubuntu disk, install it
[08:31] <macogw> shrimants: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaManual is probably the instructions youll wanna follow
[08:31] <maxwell> how
[08:31] <jamman> bruenig|laptop, well said my man.
[08:31] <maxwell> give me the url
[08:31] <macogw> maxwell:  go to ubuntu.com
[08:31] <foxjazz> I am not saying replace the commands, if your listening
[08:31] <shrimants> nightglider26, it says linux ubuntu 2.6.20-16-386
[08:32] <foxjazz> I am saying add the aliases that makes sense
[08:32] <arooni> anyone know how to get twinview working when it won't detect my second display?
[08:32] <shrimants> i also have that but -16-generic
[08:32] <bruenig|laptop> foxjazz, how are you going to know list, when you enter a shell, you don't know anything, how would someone think of doing list
[08:32] <arooni> i get stuck at 800x600 resolutions
[08:32] <shrimants> and then i have -15-generic
[08:32] <tritium> foxjazz: you mean "you're", not "your"
[08:32] <shrimants> thats all the kernels i have
[08:32] <macogw> shrimants: ok thats fine
[08:32] <maxwell> the how can i install it teach me
[08:32] <bruenig|laptop> foxjazz, you have to read it first
[08:32] <foxjazz> why wouldn't they want a list?
[08:32] <maxwell> i want to become a power user
[08:32] <macogw> shrimants: -15 was original, -16's are from updating, and i386 is specific for your processor, so thats normal
[08:32] <NecromancyBlack> can anyone tell me the linux equivalent to ping -r in windows?
[08:32] <bruenig|laptop> foxjazz, how would you know to do list or what that even means
[08:32] <shrimants> yup
[08:32] <jamman> maxwell, System -> Administration -> Upgrades
[08:32] <macogw> shrimants: you didnt accidentally add any or recompile the kernel
[08:32] <jamman> NecromancyBlack, ping?
[08:33] <shrimants> ok tahts good
[08:33] <foxjazz> yea, list is normal
[08:33] <foxjazz> dir is normal
[08:33] <jamman> what did ping -r do?
[08:33] <shrimants> so how do i get my wireless working, thats the first step
[08:33] <foxjazz> changedirectory is normal
[08:33] <bruenig|laptop> foxjazz, dir is normal? how is dir normal, how do I know what dir means
[08:33] <nightglider28> shrimants: so you have the kernel you would've gotten otherwise from the update manager. :P
[08:33] <jamman> DIR IS NOT NORMAL!!!
[08:33] <shrimants> ur mom is not normal
[08:33] <foxjazz> works with linux
[08:33] <foxjazz> so it must be normal
[08:33] <bruenig|laptop> foxjazz, if you drop a complete novice into a shell and say go, you think he is going to try out 'dir'
[08:33] <tritium> foxjazz: you are expressing opinion, not fact.  Now, last warning.  Take it to offtopic.
[08:34] <foxjazz> fine, no mor ranting.
[08:34] <jamman> tritium, can you take people off of the channel?
[08:34] <NecromancyBlack> it lists all the ip's you cross while getting to a destination, eg ping -r 5 www.google.com will show the the first 5 hops when gtting from your computer to www.google.com
[08:34] <tritium> jamman: yes
[08:34] <nightglider28> bruenig|laptop: Honestly I think a complete novice is more likely to try dir than ls.
[08:34] <macogw> shrimants: "sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces" whats in there?
[08:34] <Sonicadvance1> ha
[08:34] <dvs01> how do i prevent kernel messages from appearing in the terminal?
[08:34] <jamman> tritium, COOL! how are you able to? special useer or something?
[08:34] <NecromancyBlack> it's basically a route trace, what's the equivulent in ubuntu?
[08:34] <euphoria> hi everyone, how make beryl the default window manager when I start kubuntu feisty? i try ln -s /usr/bin/beryl-manager ~/.kde/Autostart/beryl-manager but it didnt work :-/
[08:34] <bruenig|laptop> nightglider28, no they wouldn't try either, they wouldn't have any idea, they might type help
[08:34] <Sonicadvance1> the fire effect in beryl is awesome
[08:34] <tritium> jamman: I am an op
[08:34] <nightglider28> NecromancyBlack: traceroute
[08:34] <foxjazz> maxwell: her you go budd: http://www.ss64.com/bash/chmod.html
[08:34] <NecromancyBlack> kk, thanks
[08:34] <shrimants> macogw: auto eth0        iface eth0 inet dhcp
[08:34] <euphoria> how u get fire effect Sonicadvance1?
[08:34] <macogw> dvs01: you mean in the ctrl alt f1 kind of terminal? you dont really, thats a bug that survived testing
[08:35] <nightglider28> bruenig|laptop: I didn't say they would try, I said likely to try.
[08:35] <kga543> anyone else experience bugs with ubuntu ?
[08:35] <maxwell> i was using fire fox and it just went off foxjazz
[08:35] <jamman> NecromancyBlack, trace or route
[08:35] <tritium> kga543: there are several thousand filed
[08:35] <bruenig|laptop> nightglider28, why would they do that
[08:35] <nightglider28> But i don't want to get into a debate, atm.
[08:35] <jamman> k, i gtg.
[08:35] <kga543> why so buggy though ? i thought linux was known for being solid
[08:35] <ante> how do i remove files that i copiled my self.? and can i find where the folder is?
[08:35] <bruenig|laptop> they might think of help and quit, that is it, all other commands need to be read or taught
[08:35] <nightglider28> bruenig|laptop: It's 2:35 am, I'm not in a position to debate. :P
[08:35] <macogw> shrimants: ok well that explains that....
[08:36] <kga543> i heard something about being based on unstable debian or something
[08:36] <arooni> how do i restart X when xorg conf file fails
[08:36] <macogw> shrimants: exit out of that (^ means control so do whatever the bottom says)
[08:36] <arooni> once ive fixed the file
[08:36] <foxjazz> how do you compile somthing in linux
[08:36] <bruenig|laptop> arooni, after you have modified xorg.conf?
[08:36] <tonyyarusso> kga543: Linux is the kernel, and generally quite good.  Applications vary widely from the bedrock to loam.
[08:36] <tritium> arooni: read the /var/log/Xorg.0.log, find the error, fix it, then restart gdm
[08:36] <shrimants> macogw, someone helped me configure that to get at least ethernet connection
[08:36] <arooni> bruenig|laptop: yes exactly
[08:36] <bruenig|laptop> !compile | foxjazz
[08:36] <ubotu> foxjazz: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[08:36] <bruenig|laptop> arooni, startx
[08:36] <arooni> tritium: ok 'startx'
[08:36] <arooni> i willllllllll run it
[08:36] <kga543> most of the bugs i encounter are with firefox and Gnome
[08:36] <tritium> arooni: no, sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart
[08:36] <arooni> hehe ok
[08:36] <macogw> shrimants: you might be able to just add a set that says eth1 instead of eth0 and have it pick up that its wireless but idk if itd actually do that
[08:36] <bruenig|laptop> you can do either
[08:37] <kga543> gnome specially, stupid things like my trash can wont empty
[08:37] <astro76> arooni, ctrl+alt+backspace will restart X
[08:37] <arooni> man this xorg thing is a pain
[08:37] <tritium> astro76: not from the cli
[08:37] <nightglider28> Wireless tends to be ath0. :P
[08:37] <macogw> kga543: rm ~/.Trash/*
[08:37] <kga543> lol i hate the console
[08:37] <shrimants> macogw, it wouldnt do it cuz i have no eth1 interface, so it would just crash a bit more
[08:37] <macogw> shrimants: ok
[08:37] <kga543> i mean i like having it around for backup
[08:37] <shrimants> it recognizes something there, just it doesnt know what
[08:37] <kga543> but i prefer gui
[08:37] <tritium> nightglider28: depends on the interface card/chipset
[08:37] <macogw> shrimants: i wasnt sure what the effect of adding it would be
[08:37] <astro76> tritium, ahh then like they said, startx
[08:37] <nightglider28> Granted.
[08:38] <tritium> astro76: no, he wants to restart gdm
[08:38] <shrimants> yeah, ifconfig-a shows only eth0's so adding eth1 would destroy random dependencies
[08:38] <shrimants> or something like that
[08:38] <bruenig|laptop> shrimants, what?
[08:38] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> can anyone give me a working url to down the ubuntu 7.04 version
[08:38] <shrimants> nvm, its really late
[08:38] <arooni> tritium: so basically i cant get the second montiro to be 1280x1024
[08:38] <arooni> any ideas?
[08:38] <tritium> TWIZTEDbytheloop: www.ubuntu.com has links
[08:38] <tonyyarusso> !download | TWIZTEDbytheloop
[08:38] <ubotu> TWIZTEDbytheloop: Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[08:38] <macogw> shrimants: can you try "sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf" and then scroll to where it says Section "Device" and a couple lines down it says Driver, put "nv" isntead of whatever's listed
[08:39] <tritium> arooni: if the EDID isn't being read correctly, you'll have to configure the Horiz and Vert rates manually
[08:39] <shrimants> thats what it was set to before but it didnt work
[08:39] <nightglider28> heh, ubuntu is so much easier. Gentoo is so much more fun. :P
[08:39] <bruenig|laptop> arch is fun
[08:39] <macogw> shrimants: nv didnt work? O_o
[08:39] <shrimants> nope
[08:39] <shrimants> it failed just as bad
[08:39] <macogw> shrimants: ok then
[08:39] <nightglider28> bruenig|laptop: But arch doesn't give you gcc output to be hypnotized by. :P
[08:39] <shrimants> *sigh* im gonna have to stick with vista
[08:39] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> thnx a lot
[08:40] <nightglider28> macogw: Want the list? I can do emerge -vp xorg-server.
[08:40] <bruenig|laptop> nightglider28, it does when you use abs
[08:40] <nj786> hey i am having problems playing videos online from totem is there like an update of some sort to get the videos working?
[08:40] <nightglider28> bruenig|laptop: Ah.  Well, I  haven't tried it extensively, so I'm in no position to debate on arch. :P
[08:40] <n2diy> shrimants: until they decide when to upgrade you.
[08:40] <arooni> tritium: i manually added horizontal & vertical refresh rates ... but when i do that and overwrite the metamodes to be 1280x1024... i gert no video out
[08:40] <bruenig|laptop> nightglider28, basically has binaries through pacman and has a portage like system with abs, so it is a mixed distro
[08:41] <nightglider28> heh, nice.
[08:41] <nightglider28> I still prefer Gentoo, though.  Nothing like the feeling of pride i get when I get wireless working, right. :P
[08:41] <astro76> nj786, what error/problem are you having?
[08:41] <tritium> arooni: I'd have to see your xorg.conf and Xorg.0.log, but I'm heading to bed soon.
[08:42] <arooni> tritium: mind if i pastie them real quick
[08:42] <Sonicadvance1> Hey, I have Beryl running and when I want to run an openGL app, I need to close out of my openGL app for it to work correctly, anyone know a remedy?
[08:42] <nightglider28> macogw: You want a list of the possible xorg-server drivers?
[08:42] <tritium> arooni: okay, I'll wait
[08:42] <nj786> astro76: its shwoing a picture of a cut scene on the videos
[08:42] <mariocesar_bo> Hi, I am trying to install ubuntu server, anyone can explain me what is the difference between "Erase entire Disk" and "Erase entire disk and use LVM"
[08:42] <arooni> thansk tritium !  coming right up!
[08:42] <nj786> astro76: cut scene icon
[08:42] <tritium> macogw: apt-cache search xserver-xorg
[08:43] <tritium> mariocesar_bo: the latter uses logical volume management.  If you don't know about it, don't try it
[08:43] <Helmi> hi guys
[08:43] <astro76> nj786, could you give an example link to one that doesn't work?
[08:43] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> my image is dead so that was probably why  it got stuck at 44% of copying files in the install
[08:43] <Helmi> does anyone know what the command is to open the standard webbrowser under gnome?
[08:43] <PurpZeY> hemli: Firefox ?
[08:43] <Helmi> i mean to open an url in the standard webbrowser
[08:44] <nightglider28> Type it in the address bar?
[08:44] <Helmi> PurpZeY, independet from what webbrowser is installed
[08:44] <nj786> astro76: http://stage6.divx.com/CBC/video/1256673/Stone-Cold-Steve-Austin
[08:44] <Helmi> i need it for keepass
[08:44] <arooni> tritium: xorg config file: http://pastie.caboo.se/75944
[08:44] <mariocesar_bo> tritium: hi! I want to know the diference, i was looking around but i don't understand much.
[08:44] <dvs01> macogw: actually, i mean something in the form of: "Message from syslogd@deimos at Wed Jul  4 02:43:58 2007 ..." in an ssh session
[08:44] <PurpZeY> Helmi: I don't understand.
[08:44] <ante> are there some one here that can help med with problem about wine..???
[08:44] <arooni> tritium: where do i got for xorg log file?
[08:44] <bruenig|laptop> Helmi, /etc/alternatives/x-www-browser perhaps
[08:44] <tritium> arooni: /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[08:44] <bruenig|laptop> Helmi, at least for ubuntu
[08:44] <mariocesar_bo> tritium: so, using LVM it's better than just erase the disk?
[08:44] <Helmi> bruenig|laptop, thanks i'll try
[08:45] <arooni> tritium: http://pastie.caboo.se/75945
[08:45] <tritium> mariocesar_bo: like I said, if you're unfamiliar with LVM, I'd stick to the first option (no LVM)
[08:45] <tritium> arooni: why did you use nvidia-xconfig?
[08:45] <mariocesar_bo> tritium: mmm ok, thanks.
[08:45] <bruenig|laptop> Helmi, you may also look for a script, I know xfce ships with a script called xfbrowser4 which will see which browser is installed and run it
[08:45] <arooni> tritium: i didnt know any better?
[08:45] <tritium> mariocesar_bo: you can research LVM, and try it next time
[08:46] <tritium> arooni: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" to reconfigure X.  You should be able to get X to load up.
[08:46] <Helmi> bruenig|laptop, i'm sure it is built in as other tools use it - i just don't know where to look for it and keepassX is preconfigured for KDE unfortunately
[08:46] <arooni> tritium: well x loads right now OK with the xorg file i pasted
[08:46] <bruenig|laptop> Helmi, well look in /usr/bin for it
[08:46] <arooni> tritium: but i just cant get the secondary montior to have a resolution < 800x600
[08:47] <arooni> i mean GREATER than >
[08:47] <nightglider28> 'night, people
[08:47] <Soliah> is there a way to specify the resolution for gdm?
[08:47] <qoyyim> dd
[08:47] <Helmi> bruenig|laptop, gnome-open does the job
[08:47] <nj786> astro76: u got it?
[08:48] <macogw> tritium, i know about THAT, i just meant of generics-that-are-nvidia-capable
[08:48] <Helmi> bruenig|laptop, PurpZeY so "gnome-open http://ubuntu.com" does it well :) thanks for your help
[08:48] <astro76> nj786, doesn't work here either, I am trying to figure it out
[08:48] <Helmi> h1111834.serverkompetenz.netaffi49
[08:48] <macogw> dvs01: are you ssh-ing into an ubuntu box?
[08:48] <arooni> tritium: when i use the nvidia-settings app.... i basically get '@@@' for the second monitor... and ic ant boost the resolution past 'auto' = 800x600.... and i've been trying for 5 hours
[08:48] <macogw> dvs01: because there's a bug where dmesg spews on the vt
[08:49] <tritium> macogw: just letting you know, since someone was offering to do a search on gentoo.  No need for that...
[08:49] <nj786> astro76: alright
[08:49] <tritium> arooni: I don't see any errors in your log file.  The problem isn't obvious
[08:49] <dvs01> macogw: no, debian
[08:49] <arooni> tritium: ohnoes :(
[08:49] <Sonicadvance1> Okay
[08:50] <Sonicadvance1> I just found a problem
[08:50] <macogw> dvs01: ok i dont know
[08:50] <Shiester_Miester> gday everyone
[08:50] <tritium> arooni: sorry
[08:50] <arooni> tritium: i have no idea whats wrong.
[08:50] <Shiester_Miester> hey bruenig
[08:51] <arooni> tritium: i got it to work *once* where i could change resolution in nvidia-settings app... for second monitor
[08:51] <arooni> but i cant remember how :(
[08:51] <tritium> arooni: good luck.  I need sleep now.
[08:51] <astro76> nj786, got it
[08:51] <arooni> ok gnite :P
[08:51] <arooni> can anyone help me figure out my twinview issues?
[08:51] <arooni> i'm at my wits end
[08:52] <nj786> astro76: alright hit me
[08:52] <astro76> nj786, I used method #1 under this link to download the video and open with totem: http://stage6.divx.com/forum/712/3337/
[08:52] <astro76> nj786, works a charm
[08:52] <Shiester_Miester> arooni, whats the problem?

[08:52] <bassgoon> can I make my macbook disk gpt or mbr only without os x?
[08:52] <arooni> Shiester_Miester: i can't change the resolution of my second monitor .... nvidia-settings detects it as @@@ and only lets me set resolution to 'auto' which = 800x600 :(
[08:53] <Shiester_Miester> arooni, :/ no idea
[08:53] <arooni> Shiester_Miester: i'm using the nvidia driver, a geforce fx 5200, and ubuntu 7.04.
[08:53] <arooni> ok :(
[08:53] <ignignokt00> a new ubuntu installation doesn't have any ethernet device, but my ethernet pci card shows up if i lspci

[08:54] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> can anyone tell me where or if i can get into the command prompt through the live cd and if i can check my partition for flows
[08:54] <Shiester_Miester> Sometimes when I start ubuntu, I can connect to the internet through my network card, but a lot of the time I can't.  if i restart numerous times, it seems to work eventually for no apparent reason
[08:55] <ignignokt00> n2diy: it shows up as 01:08.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Inc....
[08:55] <n2diy> TWIZTEDbytheloop: menu > apps > assecories > terminal
[08:55] <mothman> wats up
[08:55] <interfear> is Azureus 3.0 on any of the ubuntu mirrors so i can get it through apt?
[08:56] <Truman> Does anyone have any experience mounting HFS+ filesystem on a macbook from ubuntu as writable?

[08:56] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> and
[08:56] <n2diy> ignignokt00: does ifconfig find ethx something?
[08:56] <nj786> hey is how do u dl DIVX on ubuntu?
[08:57] <bruenig> nj786, the codec?
[08:57] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> n2diy do you know the cmd to check the partition

[08:57] <nj786> bruenig, codec meaning?
[08:57] <Shiester_Miester> codec = compressor / decompressor
[08:57] <n2diy> TWIZTEDbytheloop: no
[08:57] <bruenig> nj786, well there is divx player and divx codec, the former will not be installed in linux, the latter can
[08:57] <Shiester_Miester> usually for the compression and decompression of video / audio data
[08:57] <ignignokt00> n2diy: no, no eth0 or anything
[08:57] <mytc10> hello
[08:57] <lonely_sweet> iiiiiiiiii
[08:57] <mytc10> how are u?
[08:57] <n2diy> ignignokt00: the x in ethx could be a 0 or a 1, etc...
[08:58] <tritium> Shiester_Miester: no, it's not about compression
[08:58] <Shiester_Miester> hi, mytc10
[08:58] <ignignokt00> n2diy: i know, there's nothing of the sort
[08:58] <astro76> nj786, strange totem should offer to download the required codec, installing gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg will let you play divx
[08:58] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> anyone knows the command to get the command list
[08:58] <Shiester_Miester> tritium: thats what the "co" in "codec" stands for
[08:58] <sirus> any p2p progs to download mp3s etc?
[08:58] <n2diy> ignignokt00: and ifconfig doesn't show it? It isn't running.
[08:58] <interfear> What would you all consider to be the best torrent client out right now
[08:59] <bruenig> oh that despicable auto codec nonsense I had almost forgotten about that
[08:59] <ignignokt00> n2diy: so a physical problem? not a driver thing?
[08:59] <Truman> Shiester:  compression
[08:59] <tritium> Shiester_Miester: well, Coder-Decoder is the more appropriate meaning, although it is now used to convey compression, but it's not required to have a compression technique
[08:59] <bruenig> !best | interfear utorrent
[08:59] <Shiester_Miester> interfear: thats an impossible question to answer :P
[08:59] <ubotu> interfear utorrent: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[08:59] <ignignokt00> interfear: azureus
[08:59] <Shiester_Miester> tritium: thats true
[08:59] <bruenig> azureus is bloated crap
[08:59] <interfear> yeh i figured i was going to get  that answer :)
[08:59] <arooni> how do i set the BUSID correctly for my nvidia fx5200 agp 8x card?
[08:59] <interfear> ok..
[08:59] <interfear> what torrent clients do you all use?
[08:59] <Shiester_Miester> interfear: there arent THAT many of them, download a few and try them yourself
[08:59] <bruenig> interfear, utorrent
[08:59] <ignignokt00> bruenig: deluge would be my preferred but it doesn't allow priority and such
[08:59] <astro76> TWIZTEDbytheloop, fsck if it's a linux filesystem, but not ntfs or fat32
[08:59] <ignignokt00> and oink doesn't allow utorrent :\
[08:59] <interfear> bruenig: u use utorrent via vmware?
[09:00] <Shiester_Miester> i use ktorrent because azureus doesnt work properly for some reason
[09:00] <bruenig> via wine
[09:00] <n2diy> ignignokt00: Maybe, hard to tell now. Are you sure you have the right module/driver for the card? Have you tried to modprobe it?
[09:00] <interfear> ah
[09:00] <sirus> what else can i use besides azureus?
[09:00] <Shiester_Miester> and i also use the normal, default bittorrent client
[09:00] <Shiester_Miester> which has almost no features but works the most consistently :P
[09:00] <ignignokt00> n2diy: i am not sure if i have the right module/driver at all
[09:00] <interfear> Why use WINE when u can use VMware though?
[09:00] <Shiester_Miester> whats vmware?
[09:00] <ignignokt00> interfear: it's called 3d, games
[09:00] <interfear> u can run games with wine.. interesting
[09:01] <Shiester_Miester> was that what they were calling it these days, ignignokt00
[09:01] <ignignokt00> lol
[09:01] <n2diy> ignignokt00: ok, that was a Realtek right? model #?
[09:01] <ignignokt00> 1 sec
[09:01] <Shiester_Miester> interfear: yeah i play windows games with wine all the time
[09:01] <bruenig> interfear, wine is faster and you don't need to have windows
[09:01] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> thnx astro
[09:01] <GreaseMonkey> hmm... i play old games with qemu
[09:01] <interfear> hrm..
[09:01] <Shiester_Miester> so whats vmware?
[09:01] <Shiester_Miester> !vmware
[09:01] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[09:01] <Shiester_Miester> ah
[09:01] <GreaseMonkey> !qemu
[09:01] <ubotu> qemu is an emulator you can use to run another operating system - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo
[09:02] <bruenig> !virtualbox
[09:02] <ubotu> VirtualBox is open-source virtualization software for x86, with a proprietary "enterprise" version sporting additional features. Packages for Ubuntu are provided by the makers at http://www.virtualbox.org/ - Setup details at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/VirtualBox
[09:02] <Shiester_Miester> wouldnt it use a lot of resources to run windows within linux?
[09:02] <bruenig> yes a ton
[09:02] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> do i have to type anything before "fsck"
[09:02] <Shiester_Miester> well that kind of defeats the purpose if your apps lag like crap
[09:02] <ignignokt00> n2diy:  lspci gives me: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.  RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+
[09:02] <interfear> for some reason it just seems torrents go faster with windows torrent clients than with linux ones
[09:02] <interfear> but i guess that can't be possible
[09:02] <foxjazz> ok, I donloaded some source file... there is nothing in readme, not much in INSTALL. How do you make it?
[09:02] <bruenig> interfear, that is ridiculous
[09:02] <foxjazz> I trie dmake already
[09:03] <n2diy> Shiester_Miester: your serious? Of course it does, that's why we a running linux! :)
[09:03] <bruenig> foxjazz, link to tarball
[09:03] <foxjazz> bruenig: what's tarball
[09:03] <Shiester_Miester> n2diy: i was referring to using all the resources to run the OS and then having none left to run applications effectively
[09:03] <bruenig> foxjazz, link me to the thing you downloaded a direct link would be nice
[09:03] <Shiester_Miester> interfear: no mine go just as fast, although some clients do get much lower speeds
[09:03] <foxjazz> ah...
[09:03] <bruenig> clients have nothing to do with speeds
[09:03] <n2diy> ignignokt00: good! I'm running the 8139 too. wait.
[09:03] <Ltar> how to enable ntfs read/write support, after installing ntfs-3g?
[09:03] <foxjazz> https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=67275
[09:04] <ignignokt00> n2diy: :)
[09:04] <Shiester_Miester> bruenig: sometimes different clients do get consistently different speeds
[09:04] <Shiester_Miester> interfear: have you tried the default bittorrent client?
[09:04] <astro76> TWIZTEDbytheloop, you can't check mounted filesystems, so you might very well need to boot a liveCD
[09:04] <GreaseMonkey> !ntfs
[09:04] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[09:04] <GreaseMonkey> !ntfs-3g
[09:04] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[09:04] <bruenig> Shiester_Miester, if you have two clients set with the same settings, they will get identical speeds always
[09:04] <GreaseMonkey> that help, Ltar?
[09:04] <Shiester_Miester> bruenig: some clients dont have the same options, though
[09:04] <GreaseMonkey> cos if it doesn't, i can't really do much
[09:04] <bruenig> Shiester_Miester, you have to configure it
[09:04] <Ltar> GreaseMonkey: checking out the link now
[09:04] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> i have the love cd booted
[09:05] <Shiester_Miester> for example, the default bittorrent client has like, 1/20th the number of options that azureus has
[09:05] <bruenig> Shiester_Miester, 95% of azureus options are unrelated to speed
[09:05] <Shiester_Miester> but you said the same settings
[09:05] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> have the LIVE cd booted
[09:05] <Shiester_Miester> you cant have the same settings if the settings dont exist
[09:05] <bruenig> the same settings that deal with connectivity and download
[09:05] <bruenig> whether the tabs have icons on them I am going to say won't matter
[09:05] <arooni> anyone know how to solve a twinview screen resolutoin issue
[09:05] <n2diy> ignignokt00: but not on this box :/ There are two modules/driver available for that card, one is a .too, and I forget what the other one is.
[09:06] <Shiester_Miester> well its strange that some clients behave differently for lots of people
[09:06] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> but i don`t know how to use the terminal fsck won`t work
[09:06] <ignignokt00> n2diy: mmk, so what should i do?
[09:06] <bruenig> Shiester_Miester, stupid people who just carry default settings which are different client to client, you have to set them
[09:06] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> or should i type a unix and if so wich one
[09:06] <Shiester_Miester> bruenig: true, thats a good point
[09:07] <n2diy> ignignokt00: lsmod, do you see anything there relatedd to realtek?
[09:07] <Ltar> GreaseMonkey: The ubuntu help page refers to an ntfs configuration tool, after installing ntfs-3g. I can't find this anywhere... is it possible to launch it via terminal? also, this is an external hard drive. I installed ntfs-3g using apt-get
[09:07] <Shiester_Miester> Ltar: its in the "system tools" menu (i think thats what its called)
[09:07] <ignignokt00> n2diy: nope
[09:08] <astro76> Ltar, you also need to install ntfs-config
[09:08] <Ltar> I don't see it. I installed ntfs-3g just before I signed in
[09:08] <foxjazz> bruenig: Any ideas on "making" that source?
[09:09] <bruenig> foxjazz, did you give a link
[09:09] <foxjazz> https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=67275
[09:09] <n2diy> ignignokt00: ok, modprobe realtek, (I'm a spelling realtek correctly, if not, mod to fit.)
[09:09] <bruenig> !prefix | foxjazz

[09:10] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> bruenig do u know how to det the command right in the terminal does there have to be a unix at front of "fsck"
[09:10] <Ltar> DeadliftDan: try the xorg configuration tool, launch from terminal with

[09:11] <DeadliftDan> i tried but it didn't work how i expected
[09:11] <DeadliftDan> i must have made a mistake.
[09:11] <foxjazz> yes, but it doens't work right
[09:11] <ignignokt00> what'd you try?
[09:11] <bruenig> TWIZTEDbytheloop, you can't use fsck on a mounted drive that is probably your problem
[09:11] <n2diy> ignignokt00: duh!! try them as sudo!!!
[09:11] <ignignokt00> n2diy: duh :(
[09:12] <n2diy> ignignokt00: :)
[09:12] <foxjazz> bruenig: yes, but it fails to load on some files that I saved with it.
[09:12] <xblandy> why i always can't see the sentences complete?
[09:12] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> ok thnx
[09:12] <nj786> in totem why do the videos buffer alot?
[09:12] <bruenig> foxjazz, compiling it like they compiled it won't do you any good I don't think
[09:13] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> bruenig any suggestion on howto check the ext3 partition for errors
[09:13] <foxjazz> I have a debugger
[09:13] <bruenig> TWIZTEDbytheloop, unmount it and fsck
[09:13] <ignignokt00> n2diy: nothing comes out differently but i just realized that lsmod it lists "8139too" and "8139cp"
[09:13] <astro76> nj786, what do you mean by buffer? even on a downloaded (not streamed) video?
[09:13] <GreaseMonkey> Ltar, are you familiar with apt-get? try apt-get install ntfs-install
[09:13] <lonely_mama> iiiiiiiiiiiiiii
[09:13] <arooni> how do i stop X?
[09:13] <bruenig> !info ntfs-install
[09:13] <ubotu> Package ntfs-install does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[09:13] <arooni> from running?
[09:13] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> bruenig how do i unmount an internal hd then
[09:14] <arooni> i mean shut x down
[09:14] <nj786> astro76: no playing it onlline
[09:14] <bruenig> TWIZTEDbytheloop, you are probably going to want to go into live cd to do this
[09:14] <ignignokt00> arooni: ctrl+alt+backspace restarts X
[09:14] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> i am right now
[09:14] <bruenig> TWIZTEDbytheloop, unless the drive is non essential, if this drive is the root drive for instance, you won't be able to umount it
[09:14] <Ltar> GreaseMonkey: hmmm... alrite. gimme a sec. I just assumed it would be * install ntfs-3g
[09:14] <arooni> ignignokt00: i just want to kill x
[09:14] <n2diy> ignignokt00: ok, that is a problem, we need to remove the .too, I think. I'm not sure how to remove a mod, so let me ask.
[09:14] <bruenig> TWIZTEDbytheloop, fsck /dev/name then right
[09:14] <arooni> and get text login
[09:14] <ignignokt00> arooni: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[09:14] <n2diy> How do you remove a module, rmmod?
[09:15] <ignignokt00> n2diy: ok
[09:15] <Ltar> GreaseMonkey: apt-get install ntfs-install doesn't exist.
[09:15] <astro76> Ltar, you also need to install ntfs-config
[09:15] <macogw> arooni: permanently or just for now?
[09:15] <Ltar> astro76: root@Chuck-Ubuntu:/home/chuck# apt-get install ntfs-3g

[09:16] <macogw> arooni: if you do ctrl alt f1 and "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" thatll stop the X server thats running on ctrl alt f7
[09:16] <n2diy> ignignokt00: can you "man insmod" and see if the remove command is at the bottom of that page?
[09:16] <bruenig> can't you just do init 3
[09:16] <n2diy> How do you remove a module, rmmod?
[09:16] <bruenig> n2diy, right
[09:16] <astro76> nj786, I haven't had any buffering problems with totem
[09:16] <n2diy> bruenig: rmmod is the command?
[09:16] <Ltar> bruenig: alrite, thanks. that gave me the clue to try install ntfs-config
[09:16] <ignignokt00> n2diy:  SEE ALSO: rmmod
[09:17] <ignignokt00> so yeah?
[09:17] <Ltar> I have the tool, now. thanks all
[09:17] <macogw> bruenig: whats the difference between rmmod and modprobe -r?
[09:17] <berent> is there any  command to know hard disk speed
[09:17] <frying_fish> berent: hdparm and its options will help you there
[09:17] <n2diy> ignignokt00: ok, so sudo rmmod realtek.too
[09:17] <bruenig> macogw, not sure perhaps none
[09:17] <ignignokt00> k
[09:17] <arooni> omg!!!!!!!!!1
[09:17] <frying_fish> macogw: nothing really.
[09:17] <arooni> it all works!
[09:17] <arooni> just had to put latest nvidia drivers on

[09:20] <khomkhay> hi ubountu  please advise me step how to install mail server for send mail server
[09:20] <Ltar> alrite, this is strange. I checked the appropriate marks in ntfs-config, but I can't actually access any files on my external drive, now. Attempting to view the contents of a folder yeilds "nautilus cannot display yadda yadda" or "folder contents could not be displayed". I can't delete. argh?
[09:20] <VIrUZ_> how can i talk commands into bash ?
[09:21] <bruenig> VIrUZ_, what
[09:21] <VIrUZ_> i have a mic
[09:21] <bruenig> VIrUZ_, you can't
[09:21] <Ltar> my internal NTFS partition is mounted fine
[09:21] <VIrUZ_> why ?
[09:21] <astro76> TWIZTEDbytheloop, put sudo in front of the command you are trying (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo)
[09:21] <ignignokt00> n2diy: when i try sudo ifup eth0 it says no such device
[09:21] <bruenig> VIrUZ_, because the functionality doesn't exist
[09:21] <astro76> khomkhay, sudo apt-get install sendmail
[09:21] <VIrUZ_> yes it dose
[09:21] <VIrUZ_> its called text to speatch
[09:21] <bruenig> VIrUZ_, it doesn't, if you are sure it does, then do it and stop asking
[09:21] <VIrUZ_> speatch to text
[09:21] <ignignokt00> speech*
[09:21] <n2diy> ignignokt00: ok, insmod 8139?
[09:22] <vincenz> Not knowing where to ask this question, I will ask the question here as my box runs Ubuntu.  Basically I'm having SSH issues.  The problem is not purely network, as ping always works fine, but at random times I can ssh out, at random times I can not.  And it must be my side as this holds for plural SSH boxes I want to SSH too.  Does anyone have any idea what could be the cause of this
[09:22] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> bruenig what is sudo and where is it can`t seem to find it is it an app or a command
[09:22] <VIrUZ_> ive seen it on some distro page
[09:22] <ignignokt00> n2diy: no such file or directory?
[09:22] <astro76> TWIZTEDbytheloop, put sudo in front of the command you are trying (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo)

[09:24] <n2diy> ignignokt00: WTF? Hmmm
[09:24] <ignignokt00> n2diy: but i guess it does find 8139cp?
[09:24] <bruenig> TWIZTEDbytheloop, what are you doing, I assumed you had some basic knowledge of computers when you said you were in the live cd ready to do a fsck, but I guess not
[09:24] <macogw> Necrodrako: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto you need nvidia-glx
[09:24] <gdb>        ld - The GNU linker
[09:24] <ignignokt00> n2diy: if i sudo modprobe 8139cp it brings me back to a prompt without saying "not found"
[09:24] <bruenig> how do you get to that point without knowing with sudo is
[09:24] <bruenig> what*

[09:26] <macogw> Necrodrako: do you have a black screen or just no-3D?
[09:26] <bruenig> VIrUZ_, that is text to speech not speech to text
[09:26] <n2diy> ignignokt00: Great! ifup 8139cp, now what does that say?
[09:27] <arooni> omg so my xorg file finally works.... wheres a good place to back it up?
[09:27] <bruenig> VIrUZ_, no
[09:27] <astro76> Geoff, ld is the linker, do you have bin-utils installed? Installing build-essential will install the packages (including bin-utils) needed to build software.
[09:27] <Perun> hi
[09:27] <Necrodrako> macogw: no 3d
[09:27] <ignignokt00> n2diy: "ignoring unkown interface 8139cp=8139cp"
[09:27] <Perun> is there a xen repository with current kernel?
[09:27] <macogw> Necrodrako: system > admin > restricted drivers manager
[09:27] <macogw> Necrodrako: enable the binary driver, and you should be good
[09:27] <VIrUZ_> i thoughgt windows vista had speech to text funtionality
[09:28] <n2diy> ignignokt00: Yuck. Have you ever configured a network?
[09:28] <macogw> VIrUZ_: yeah, have you seen how poorly it works?
[09:28] <VIrUZ_> i guess windows vista isnt for the blind ...

[09:29] <VIrUZ_> its like buy me or else
[09:29] <ignignokt00> n2diy: it's just it would save a lot of time to configure the network card cause that's the only thing not working

[09:31] <phetsamone> Hello i am from loa pdr
[09:31] <jeremysan> how do i do what you said?
[09:31] <Surkow> jeremysan, why do you need to recompile ndiswrapper in the first  place?
[09:32] <jeremysan> because the ndiswrapper install wiki says that i have to.
[09:32] <macogw> VIrUZ_: and yeah, its basically stabilized snapshots of debian with extra stuff thrown in to be easier, but Canonical is working on the Nouveau project to get good open source Nvidia drivers
[09:32] <jeremysan> i have no idea how or why,
[09:32] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> bruenis i think i will  get ubuntu installed after all becouse my cd had an error so i just have to reburn it as slow as possible if it won`t work we`ll be back here
[09:32] <_nnx_> Is there any way to tell what package, if any, a file belongs to?
[09:32] <ignignokt00> n2diy: what does 73 GL OM mean

[09:32] <Surkow> @ jeremysan - just use apt-get to download ndiswrapper
[09:32] <macogw> VIrUZ_: there are no open source nvidia drivers with 3d
[09:33] <Abhilash> is ubuntu as good as rhel?
[09:33] <jeremysan> exactly what command, surkow?
[09:33] <jeremysan> "apt-get ndiswrapper"
[09:33] <jeremysan> ?
[09:33] <n2diy> ignignokt00: Nada, hint, GL is good luck.
[09:33] <macogw> VIrUZ_: nvidia's drivers are buggy and closed so they cant be fixed by $kernelHacker
[09:33] <VIrUZ_> my nvidia drivers work very well
[09:33] <macogw> VIrUZ_: for many people there is the problem of the black window bug
[09:33] <Abhilash> guys please help me in chooisng a server
[09:33] <VIrUZ_> what do yoiu mean "fixed" ?
[09:34] <Abhilash> i have options for fedora, centos, debian, ubuntu
[09:34] <Abhilash> also slackware
[09:34] <bassgoon> was "linux-generic" an ok kernel to pick? I picked expert mode...just to try it out, I'm in a little over my head
[09:34] <misfit> has anyone been experiencing performance issues with the latest nvidia drivers?

[09:35] <kham> hello world
[09:35] <pynoob> Hey has anyone here played with tsocks?
[09:35] <hamedv90> kham: hi
[09:35] <macogw> VIrUZ_: when the drivers are binary blobs like the nvidia ones are, canonical employees and random kernel hackers can't fix bugs.  we have to rely on Nvidia to do it, which sometimes they get around to it, and sometimes they don't.  either way, theyre the only ones with access to fix bugs right now, but open source ones more people could do it
[09:35] <macogw> VIrUZ_: havent you ever noticed that the open source ATI drivers are about 100x better than the binary ones?
[09:35] <jeremysan> Okay, Surkow, now that I have that installed, what else do i Need to make NDISwrapper work?
[09:35] <n2diy> kham: hw
[09:35] <jeremysan> How can i tell if its installed properly , if at all?
[09:36] <VIrUZ_> macogw: i bet lots of people could make better cheats too :D
[09:36] <Surkow> @ jeremysan - I never had to use ndiswrapper...I guess you should ask others for more help.
[09:36] <jeremysan> ok. thanks

[09:38] <Necrodrako> ims till haveing driver problems
[09:38] <draders> iwconfig no longer shows the device even there anymore
[09:38] <astro76> draders, step #1: sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter (select yes during install to download firmware)
[09:38] <astro76> draders, step #2: sudo cp /lib/firmware/bcm43xx* /lib/firmware/`uname -r`
[09:39] <VIrUZ_> firmware ?
[09:39] <astro76> draders, wait 15 seconds, wireless should then work

[09:42] <Anon583> hi
[09:42] <n2diy> VIrUZ_: yep, your reading it.
[09:42] <TaJMoX> VIrUZ_: Ubuntu is Linux for dummies =] 
[09:42] <VIrUZ_> LOL
[09:43] <VIrUZ_> so thats why they stick with gnome
[09:43] <misfit> any other suggestions?
[09:43] <Myrtti> could you please keep the offtopic to #ubuntu-offtopic, folks.
[09:43] <Necrodrako> any one help me with sound card trouble in 7.04?
[09:43] <misfit> on what I could try?
[09:43] <Dusk_> misfit, what's your problem??
[09:44] <sonnie> anyone knows the 'ratDVD' thing?
[09:44] <Myrtti> !repeat | Necrodrako
[09:44] <ubotu> Necrodrako: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[09:44] <n2diy> What's gnome got to do with it?
[09:44] <Dusk_> misfit, what's your video card?
[09:45] <VIrUZ_> can i install ubuntu from a web page ? like i did with debian ?
[09:45] <n2diy> ! install | VIrUS_
[09:45] <ubotu> VIrUS_: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

[09:46] <draders> astro76:  it did some stuff but I don't see any wireless devices
[09:46] <misfit> dusk, my computer screen flickers black at certain times, like when I'm moving an open window, playing a movie or using the desktop cube, or even when I'm closing a tab in firefox.  I have an nvidia ti 4600 card, latest drivers.  I've also tried disabling desktop effects, to no avail.
[09:46] <VIrUZ_> i belive that ubuntu was created to keep noobs out off #debian
[09:46] <astro76> draders, after I did that I see wireless networks when I click on the network manager in the panel
[09:47] <Dusk_> misfit, is your 3d rendering open??
[09:47] <Myrtti> draders: just out of curiosity, are you on a laptop and if so, which
[09:47] <misfit> dusk, how can I be sure?
[09:47] <n2diy> VIrUZ_: maybe, but there aren't many noods there, are there?
[09:47] <draders> yes, gateway
[09:47] <misfit> I'm running the latest version of ubuntu feisty, btw.
[09:48] <draders> couldnt even find the model number on their website lol
[09:48] <Myrtti> draders: some laptops have a feature that if you're connected to the internet with CAT-5 copper, you can't use WLAN
[09:48] <_nnx_> How do I go about reinstalling udev?
[09:48] <Dusk_> misfit, in terminal write.. glxinfo | grep "direct rendering"
[09:48] <draders> when i first installed ubuntu i saw a wirless device when i did iwconfig
[09:48] <draders> now i dont
[09:48] <J-_> !ssh
[09:48] <ubotu> SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[09:48] <draders> i think i removed it or something when trying to get ndiswrapper to work
[09:49] <misfit> dusk, it says "direct rendering: yes"
[09:49] <Necrodrako> my sound is not working, it was earlier, after a reboot it stopped, and when i test sound, i get this error "audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Could not open resource for writing." does any one know what is wrong?
[09:49] <VIrUZ_> ubotu putty is offtopic
[09:49] <Geoff> okay,
[09:49] <Geoff> "/usr/bin/ld: crt1.o: No such file: No such file or directory"
[09:49] <Geoff> how the heck do you fix this? reinstall hasnt worked
[09:49] <VIrUZ_> !offtopic
[09:49] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:49] <J-_> Is there a way to restart ssh?
[09:49] <Dusk_> misfit, hmmm sorry i'm thinking but no solutions :(
[09:49] <|_ocke> happy 4th to everyone not here in alaska or hawaii
[09:49] <ketrox> if you saw a wireless device that means you don't need ndiswrapper
[09:50] <VIrUZ_> lets have some turky
[09:50] <Dusk_> misfit, use GL Desktop
[09:50] <Dusk_> misfit, are you using it?
[09:50] <VIrUZ_> stuffed turky :P
[09:50] <misfit> dusk, I don't know if this helps but this started a couple of days ago, where the last auto update I did involved new nvidia drivers...
[09:50] <draders> okay, what would i do to get it back then
[09:50] <Myrtti> VIrUZ_: you've been told several times to keep the offtopic off this channel.
[09:51] <VIrUZ_> Myrtti: why are you picking on me ?
[09:51] <n2diy> l_ocke, PA  doesn't count?
[09:51] <misfit> dusk, I don't know if I'm using gl desktop, btw.  I think I'm only using compiz.
[09:51] <Dusk_> misfit, have you seached recent bugs, mail lists, bugzilla etc.?
[09:51] <ketrox> draders can we see the lspci output
[09:51] <ketrox> ?
[09:52] <Dusk_> misfit, is there GL Desktop under System>Preferences ??
[09:52] <misfit> dusk, actually no, I just began troubleshooting this issue minutes ago.
[09:52] <Myrtti> VIrUZ_: if you need support for specific Ubuntu problem, this channel is for you. If you have some general stuff about Ubuntu, perhaps #ubuntu-offtopic is better. And if you really have nothing to say related to ubuntu, then definitely.
[09:53] <misfit> dusk, I just checked and didn't see anything.
[09:53] <Dusk_> misfit, maybe there can be some solutions after the updates..take a look at bugs and maillists
[09:53] <misfit> dusk, is there a way to roll-back the driver?
[09:54] <jeff_> how many GB does it take to run roller coaster tycoon 1
[09:54] <n2diy> hmmm
[09:55] <misfit> so is there a way to roll back to the last driver?
[09:55] <jeff_> because when i go to play my game it says that i have 0 free space of bytes left
[09:56] <arooni> does anyone know how i can get my microsoft wireless comfort keyboard (and 4 button wireless mouse working)?  id like to get the back-forward butongs working especially.  mouse + keyboard basics alreadywork
[09:56] <Necrodrako> can anyone help me with sound card issues?
[09:56] <ketrox> Necrodrako what sound card you have ?
[09:56] <n2diy> misfit: locate your driver file, and see if it was backed up. the back up should have the same name, with an~ at the end of it.
[09:57] <Necrodrako> ketrox: creative sb live
[09:57] <misfit> n2diy, is there a common directory to find these drivers?
[09:57] <ketrox> and what's the problem ?
[09:57] <Dusk_> misfit, use synaptic manager
[09:57] <Necrodrako> ketrox: it was working earlier then after restart it does nothing but gives me errors when i test the audio
[09:58] <n2diy> misfit: I don't think so, use the locate command to find where they are hiding.
[09:58] <ketrox> did you tried  the lastest alsa driver ?
[09:58] <Necrodrako> ketrox: here is the error "audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Could not open resource for writing."

[10:20] <ketrox> type uname -r in terminal
[10:20] <shortcake> i dont follow you n2diy
[10:21] <astro76> Necrodrako, you probably need linux-headers

[10:21] <n2diy> shortcake: what don't you follow, the keyboard stuff, or the reply stuff?
[10:21] <Necrodrako> astro76: i have no idea what that even means

[10:40] <Billy> I installed realplayer for linux, but I still can not open .rm video's  what should I find and install if the realplayergold10.bin from the www.real.com is not playing the files for me?
[10:41] <tritium> shortcake: all you need is the main repo for k3b, as you can see from the info above

[10:42] <khamphong> hi
[10:43] <tritium> !real > Billy
[10:43] <furrynz> use automatix2 to install realplayer 10
[10:43] <tritium> no!
[10:43] <tritium> !automatix | furrynz
[10:43] <ubotu> furrynz: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe

[10:43] <furrynz> sorry
[10:44] <robmaa> can anyonet tell me how to restart gdm so I can try if i configured my xorg.conf correctly and x detects my gfx card?
[10:44] <Billy> !WorksForMe
[10:44] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[10:44] <Steve86> Hi - is there anyone who can help me..My unbuntu 7.04 does not play sound
[10:44] <tritium> robmaa: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart
[10:44] <n2diy> robmaa: ctrl + alt + backspace
[10:45] <JimQode> Steve86, Is a there a little speaker icon on your taskbar?
[10:45] <Jamesinator> Can anyone please suggest good addons to Ubuntu that will make it easier for a non-technical Windows user to switch over?
[10:45] <robmaa> ah, it worked, oh... could not open the device file /dev/nvidia0 8input/output error) failed to initialize the nvidia graphics device pci:1:0:0
[10:46] <Steve86> Jinqode, yes
[10:46] <JimQode> Jamesinator, Ubuntu is pretty easy for a non-technical windows user to switch over
[10:46] <Jamesinator> JimQode: Thanks, that's not what I asked.
[10:46] <JimQode> Steve86, Double click it. what do you get?
[10:46] <n2diy> Jamesinator: terminal
[10:47] <astro76> Jamesinator, he's right, it's easier than windows out of the box at this point
[10:47] <tritium> JimQode: his answer impliese that no addons are required
[10:47] <Steve86> jimqode: the volume bar comes up, it is on full volume
[10:47] <tritium> implies, even
[10:47] <JimQode> Steve86, A mixer window should come. Don't click it once, double click it.
[10:47] <astro76> Jamesinator, the installer will even import data from your windows user profiles
[10:48] <Steve86> jim qode: ok it has come up
[10:48] <Jamesinator> I don't think you get what I'm saying. I already know that Ubuntu is easy, but that's not what I asked. I asked if anyone could suggest any good addons that would make it easier for a Windows user to switch to, such as themes / etc. I'd much rather you tried to answer my question rather than telling me something irrelevant, although I appreciate your input.
[10:48] <EvilDennisR> Jamesinator: My buddy had an older laptop kicking around, and I installed xubuntu on it.. Today he msg'd me and said "Dude, I need linux on my desktop". He downloaded the iso, and installed ubuntu on his desktop, replacing XP no problem
[10:48] <n2diy> Jamesinator: terminal
[10:48] <Jamesinator> n2diy: Just how would a terminal help a non-technical windows user?
[10:48] <EvilDennisR> Jamesinator: I don't think "themes" and such is what you're looking for.. The look and feel is the same for any GUI, really.
[10:49] <tritium> Jamesinator: their answers are not irrelevant
[10:49] <n2diy> Jamesinator: it gives you a command prompt.
[10:49] <student_> student
[10:49] <Recon69> Jamesinator: main thing that you need to add is some video and sound apps , you probably need to ask more specific questions
[10:49] <EvilDennisR> Jamesinator: Point them in the direction of the package manager, and say "If you need a program to do a specific thing, do a search and install it"
[10:49] <Jamesinator> n2diy: I know what a terminal is, I was saying your answer was completely irrelevant. A terminal is not going to help a non-technical user.
[10:49] <JimQode> Steve86, Which devices exist under File / Change Device menu?
[10:50] <EvilDennisR> Jamesinator: Yeah, Recon69 is correct too.. I setup flash and mplayer etc... on my buddy's laptop for him
[10:50] <n2diy> Jamesinator: it will.
[10:50] <tritium> Jamesinator: your question should be more specific.  The answers you got _were_ relevant.
[10:50] <gordonjcp> Jamesinator: how would you make it easier for a Windows user to switch to Ubuntu?
[10:51] <furrynz> Jamesinator: use the ubuntu guide to setup all the "normal" stuff you need on the computer
[10:51] <EvilDennisR> Jamesinator: Also, n2diy is correct.. You really should know a few terminal commands.. Its just basic stuff
[10:51] <Steve86> jimqodejimqode: They are HDAintel (alsamixier) and Realtek alt861-vd )ossmixer)
[10:51] <Jamesinator> tritium: EVERYONE's answer to me so far has been completely useless and irrelevant. I asked if anyone had suggestions for good addons that make it easier for a non-technical Windows user to switch to Ubuntu. I did not ask for a definition of a terminal, or reaffirmation that Ubuntu is easy to use, and frankly I'm pissed as hell because the ubuntu support channel is supposed to be supportive and not completely oblivious to what I
[10:51] <tritium> furrynz: the wiki and help.ubuntu.com are more useful than ubuntuguide
[10:52] <EvilDennisR> tritium: Thanks..
[10:52] <tritium> EvilDennisR: sure
[10:52] <EvilDennisR> tritium: That kid just didn't get it.. _Everyones_ input was useful.
[10:52] <JimQode> Steve86, So there is no driver problem with your card. It should be working. If you have a switches tab in your mixer windows try the switched there. Make sure both PCM and Front are turned up.
[10:52] <tritium> yep
[10:52] <n2diy> Jamesinator: Sorry, I'll shut up, and help someone else.
[10:53] <Billy> !itoons
[10:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about itoons - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:53] <EvilDennisR> I just told him that my buddy, who had no linux experience, installed ubuntu no problem, and is using it
[10:53] <DerangedDingo> tritium: yeah. besides... there isn't really.. "addons" for Ubuntu. and this channel is extremely useful, as long as your question makes enough sense
[10:53] <robmaa> seems like i didnt configure my 8800gts correctly, since the problem is still there: failed to initialize the nvidia graphics device :-( at the end of the report it saysfatal server error: no screens found
[10:54] <siimo> hi can someone tell me how to set up a reiserfs partition so that the files on it are owned by anyone that mounts it
[10:54] <tritium> DerangedDingo: glad you've found it to be useful
[10:54] <gordonjcp> EvilDennisR: he didn't answer my question at all

[10:54] <Steve86> Jimqode: I know, I checked it out .. But everything is turned up but no sound is coming from the speakers..The soundcars is working as it works with my windows vista
[10:54] <EvilDennisR> gordonjcp: Who didn't answer what now?
[10:54] <gordonjcp> chump don't want the help, chump don't get the help </airplane>
[10:54] <Billy> Ya I love Ubuntu  I have deleted windows off of 3 of my box's ... the only problem I have is that I am not able to play my IToons M4p files and I can not hear the sound of .rm files
[10:54] <gordonjcp> EvilDennisR: that Jamesinator dude, I asked what kind of thing he thought would be helpful
[10:54] <EvilDennisR> ah, right..
[10:55] <Recon69> think Jamesinator wanted someone to go to his house and do it for him, o well, maybe he better off in windows
[10:55] <EvilDennisR> haha
[10:55] <gordonjcp> EvilDennisR: tempting to suggest "A bit of paper that says 'Evolution, not Outlook; Firefox, not IE' would help"
[10:55] <astro76> !itunes
[10:55] <ubotu> itunes is not available on Linux, but there are many audio player alternatives (see !players). For Daap clients (sharing music with other iTunes clients on the network), install banshee
[10:55] <JimQode> Steve86, Did you check all the controls in edit / preferences? Some relevant controls may be hidden.
[10:56] <DerangedDingo> Billy: Itunes store bought mp4 files are encrypted and can't be read. with the help of Gstreamer plugins or additional media players you might be able to play the regular ITunes converted files
[10:56] <JimQode> Steve86, Some sound cards are really weird with linux drivers. I had a card that didn't work if you didn't turn on 3d sound setting. It may be something like that.
[10:56] <Steve86> jimqode: ok one moment
[10:56] <shortcake> hmm
[10:56] <metbsd> how do i untar a bunch of tgz?
[10:56] <shortcake> does anyone have k3b?
[10:57] <n2diy> shortcake: yes
[10:57] <shortcake> thats what i'm tryinf to get
[10:57] <shortcake> trying
[10:57] <tritium> shortcake: I told you that it's in the main repo.  Simply install it.
[10:57] <shortcake> my sources list is bad or something
[10:57] <DerangedDingo> metbsd: at once, or is it an extension problem?
[10:58] <shortcake> would you mind posting your sources.list?
[10:58] <Billy> DerangedDingo: Thank you, I will have to see how I could confert them then.  BTW how do you post text up there were it high lights your name for me?
[10:58] <tritium> !sources | shortcake
[10:58] <ubotu> shortcake: 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
[10:58] <Habbie> tritium, shouldn't it be !sources > shortcake  ?
[10:58] <n2diy> shortcake: sudo apt-get install k3b doesn't work?
[10:58] <astro76> shortcake, http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic/
[10:58] <shortcake> no
[10:58] <tritium> Habbie: depends on the desired outcome
[10:58] <shortcake> and my apt-get update fails
[10:58] <sirus> shortcake: try brasero
[10:59] <DerangedDingo> Billy: <Name>: etc, etc, does it. Most IRC clients will recognize if a message displays your current username
[10:59] <n2diy> shortcake: yuck, GL.
[10:59] <tritium> Habbie: as you see above, the | nick-hilights the info for the user, but also puts the info in the channel
[10:59] <webmind> can anyone mimmick the following test for me on feisty: http://tnx.nl/6433IWLD
[10:59] <Habbie> tritium, i know, but i mean, wouldn't > as syntax make more sense
[10:59] <webmind> it seems that feisty is caching block devices
[10:59] <shortcake> 8apt-get install brasero?
[10:59] <webmind> I tried this with 2 USB sticks
[10:59] <tritium> Habbie: that syntax exists also, and doesn't paste the info in the channel
[10:59] <sirus> shortcake: yes
[10:59] <Recon69> anyone able to help with a borked gnome desktop? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=491551
[10:59] <shortcake> OK
[11:00] <Habbie> tritium, ah,  ok
 Awsome thank you so much
[11:00] <student_> student
[11:00] <shortcake> CANNOT FIND PACKAGE
[11:00] <shortcake> i think these are bad
[11:00] <DerangedDingo> Billy: heh, the "<>"s aren't needed but it worked anyway. have a good day
[11:00] <Steve86> jimqode: ok I went to preferences and asked to show all,I ensured all the colume was up and still I have no sound coming
[11:01] <astro76> shortcake, after you change your sources you need to sudo apt-get update
[11:01] <n2diy> shortcake: no need to YELL at us.
[11:01] <robmaa> i looked into the xorg.0.log and there are no problems, but in the last lines is "failed to initialize the nvidia grapgics device pci:1:0:0" what can i do about that? already tried reconfiguring xconf, but with no success
[11:02] <JimQode> Could you try this from a terminal:  cat /lib/libc-2.5.so > /dev/dsp
[11:02] <shortcake> i didn't mean to yell sorry
[11:02] <Habbie> JimQode, please don't suggest that
[11:02] <fedupwithwindows> is GAIM usually a stable aplication? because it spontaneously closed just now, and its the second time it does that...
[11:02] <JimQode> Habbie, Why? It's a quick and easy way to try if sound source is the problem.
[11:02] <n2diy> shortcake: nada
[11:02] <shortcake> some index files failed to download
[11:03] <Billy> Thank you all for the help... Later.
[11:03] <Habbie> JimQode, it also makes an awful noise
[11:03] <robmaa> no one able to help? dont know what to do...
[11:03] <astro76> fedupwithwindows, the version in feisty is still a beta...
[11:04] <fedupwithwindows> astro76: that explains it, thank you.
[11:04] <fedupwithwindows> what messaging aplication is recomended, other than GAIM?
[11:04] <Steve86> jimqode: anything else you can think of that could be a problem...
[11:05] <JimQode> Steve86, nope sorry
[11:05] <n2diy> fedupwithwindows: what are you using?
[11:05] <Steve86> cool..Thanks for the help ... Does anyone else know where i can get assistance getting my sound to work with linux
[11:05] <JimQode> fedupwithwindows, Kopete is a nice one.
[11:06] <Recon69> so no suggestion on what to do with my messed up desktop? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=491551
[11:06] <fedupwithwindows> n2diy: i using GAIM, but it spontaneously closed two times now, i think its ot very stable
[11:06] <astro76> fedupwithwindows, you could try running it from a terminal and see if there are any errors
[11:06] <Recon69>  fedupwithwindows: gaim works find for me in 6.06
[11:07] <n2diy> fedupwithwindows: what eles is available under your menu > internet?
[11:07] <fedupwithwindows> JimQode & astro76: thank you
[11:07] <fedupwithwindows> Recon69: im running 7.04, i heard gaim is beta on this vertion
[11:08] <astro76> it is still stable for most people though
[11:08] <fedupwithwindows> n2diy: only Ekiga, hen the browser, and e-mail aplication
[11:08] <Recon69> fedupwithwindows: hmm, you making me think i dont want to use 7.04 to try fix my problem
[11:08] <JimQode> Recon69, try moving your home folder elsewhere and restarting the system. It may be a problem with you settings file being corrupted.
[11:09] <shimfs> hi
[11:09] <shimfs> i have a little problem, i am trying to get my broadcom 4311 drivers to work on ubuntu
[11:09] <n2diy> fedupwithwindows: I'm using xchat-gnome, with Dapper, it that helps.
[11:09] <fedupwithwindows> Recon69: this is the only issue i had with 7.04 up to now, and should be easily fixed
[11:09] <shimfs> and im following the different guides to use ndiswrapper
[11:09] <Recon69> JimQode: best suggestion i had all day, I'll try that
[11:09] <shimfs> but apparently, ndiswrapper DISABLES wlan0 and my wireless appears on eth0
[11:09] <shimfs> what do i have to do, to get them back to wlan 0
[11:10] <fedupwithwindows> n2diy: yes, thanx =)
[11:10] <shimfs> anyone who knows how to deal with ndiswrapper and broadcom? i have a little question
[11:11] <fedupwithwindows> thank you all for the sugestions
[11:11] <n2diy> fedupwithwindows: GL

[11:13] <sirus> sudo infront
[11:13] <Flannel> c_: try -r instead of --directory
[11:13] <astro76> shimfs, I know how to get broadcom to work without ndiswrapper, but I don't know how to fix your problem first
[11:13] <Recon69> got to restart , be back in a bit
[11:14] <frojnd> hello there
[11:15] <frojnd> does command line have regular expressions ?

[11:15] <Flannel> frojnd: What are you trying to do?
[11:15] <hylje> frojnd: yes, through utilities
[11:16] <ushortcakeu> ok
[11:16] <hylje> frojnd: you can for example invoke perl to your bidding
[11:16] <ushortcakeu> im in with ubuntu
[11:16] <ushortcakeu> still got messed up kezs though

[11:18] <ushortcakeu> what file
[11:18] <astro76> sirus, IPFilter
[11:18] <robmaa> opened a file with "vi .." and changed something, but :wq says since its readonly, i have to add ! to override, but where do i have to add !?
[11:18] <GreaseMonkey> :wq!
[11:18] <twosouls82> robmaa: write!
[11:18] <GreaseMonkey> :w!
[11:18] <twosouls82> :)
[11:18] <sirus> astro76: really! and thats openbsd's pf?
[11:18] <shortcake> i can do a update and paste the error..
[11:19] <astro76> ushortcakeu, we'd have to no the problem
[11:19] <shortcake> or my sources..
[11:19] <astro76> sirus, no
[11:19] <astro76> it's the equivalent
[11:19] <frojnd> problem is that I need to filter some txt so invoking perl would be great
[11:19] <shortcake> i cant get apt to do squat
[11:19] <sirus> astro76: iptables?
[11:19] <JimQode> robmaa, It's probably a file only root user can write. use sudo vi to open it.
[11:19] <sirus> or ipf or something?
[11:19] <shortcake> and i need to install k3b

[11:22] <twosouls82> shimfs: change the appropriate line in /etc/iftab
[11:22] <Lizard_> i have xubuntu but bootsplash is ugly. Can i make bootsplash with ubuntu?
[11:22] <twosouls82> nano -w /etc/iftab
[11:22] <shimfs> twosouls82, what should i write (im not so good at linux)
[11:22] <sirus> whats the -w for?
[11:22] <shimfs> twosouls82, wait, wlan0 does not even appear in iftab
[11:22] <ushortcakeu> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28463/
[11:22] <dromer> hi all, I'm having a problem, somehow my system is running two dhcp clients which makes my ip changes a heck of alot: http://pastebin.ca/602764   how can I turn one of them off?
[11:22] <JimQode> Recon69, hmm. then your system file probably got corrupted. you can try fixing it with alternate cd, or reinstalling the system. I'm sorry.
[11:23] <Flannel> sirus: no wrap
[11:23] <MeRodent> With the first drivers I tried it came up as eth1 but wouldn't allow me to change any wifi settings. When I loaded the basic card drivers it suddenly worked.
[11:23] <n2diy> can I run my old qbasic files from dos, in Ubuntu?
[11:23] <sirus> Flannel: ahh
[11:23] <JimQode> n2diy, you can use dosemu to run dos programs.
[11:23] <twosouls82> shimfs: you need to change the line with eth0 to wlan0
[11:23] <shortcake> since i have no # to make it withthats when i try to apt-get update
[11:23] <JimQode> !dosemu | n2diy
[11:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dosemu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:23] <shimfs> twosouls82, how do i do that?
[11:23] <shortcake> ok ignore that
[11:23] <Flannel> n2diy: There are BASIC interpretters.  Not sure if there's a QBasic.  DOSBox is DOS though.  So if you can get the qbasic executable/etc
[11:23] <n2diy> JimQode: roger that.
[11:23] <shortcake> thats when i try to apt-get update
[11:24] <twosouls82> shimfs: could you paste me the contents of iftab somewhere?
[11:24] <oscurochu> jason@john-desktop:/usr/local/apache2/htdocs$ sudo ln /usr/local/apache2/htdocs /home/john/Desktop/www
[11:24] <oscurochu> ln: `/usr/local/apache2/htdocs': hard link not allowed for directory
[11:24] <oscurochu> i need help.
[11:24] <MeRodent> Can anyone suggest how I can get the mic on my webcam recognised/working?
[11:24] <sirus> any good news reader programs?
[11:24] <oscurochu>  ln: `/usr/local/apache2/htdocs': hard link not allowed for directory
[11:24] <sirus> for ubuntu?
[11:24] <n2diy> Flannel: roger that too.
[11:24] <Recon69> JimQode : could you give me a bit more info as to what exactly the alternate is?
[11:24] <astro76> shimfs, hmm, my broadcm 4306 is eth1, and working with opensource drivers
[11:25] <astro76> shimfs, never touched ndiswrapper either
[11:25] <dromer> can someone help me check my bootscripts? I don't want dhclient3 to turn on during boot, because I already have another dhclient
[11:25] <shimfs> astro76, ok, what did you do to make it work?
[11:25] <Recon69> jimQode , never mind i found it
[11:26] <JimQode> Recon69, Ubuntu alternate install cd is a cd image without the live Desktop. It can do repair. You can download it from http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download by checking the checkbox
[11:26] <oscurochu> can someone help me? :  ln: `/usr/local/apache2/htdocs': hard link not allowed for directory
[11:26] <twosouls82> shimfs: just make the line "eth0 mac 00:14:h5:a3:60:75 arp 1" read "wlan0 mac 00:14:h5:a3:60:75 arp 1" and change eth1 to eth0, save and reboot
[11:26] <astro76> shimfs, first, sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter, and hit yes during install to download firmware
[11:26] <ushortcakeu> here are mz sources http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28464/
[11:26] <astro76> shimfs, then, sudo cp /lib/firmware/bcm43xx* /lib/firmware/`uname -r`
[11:26] <shimfs> twosouls82, what should i write to change the file? right now i cant change it
[11:27] <DjViper> is there any way of forcing ubuntu to connect to a specific named wlan network on boot?
[11:27] <shimfs> astro76, i have seen the uname -r alot of places, what should i write instead of that?
[11:27] <Lizard_> how i can change my bootsplash in xubuntu with Xfce??
[11:27] <twosouls82> shimfs:  sudo nano -w /etc/iftab (always sudo for action to be performed as root)
[11:27] <astro76> shimfs, use that, it will go in the directory named after your running kernel version
[11:27] <stefg> !splash
[11:27] <astro76> shimfs, exactly as I pasted
[11:27] <shimfs> astro76, ok thanks, i will just try the ndiswrapper twosouls82  is helping me with
[11:28] <ubotu> To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.
[11:28] <ushortcakeu> what do you guys think
[11:28] <stefg> !usplash
[11:28] <ubotu> To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[11:28] <twosouls82> shimfs: ndiswrapper has higher rates than bcm43xx for me
[11:28] <Borat_Sagdiyev> bang bang skid skid nigga
[11:29] <Lizard_> i want change bootsplash, not splash gnome
[11:29] <ushortcakeu> did zou see mz pastbin_
[11:29] <Recon69> last question, I take it i want the 6.06 alternate CD to do the fix?
[11:30] <hola_world22> hi, i'm a mac
[11:30] <astro76> ushortcakeu, I asked what the error was
[11:31] <Recon69> well, i'll try with the 6.06 disk, hope it's the right one as it a 700mb dl
[11:32] <robmaa> :O it WORKED changed from nvidia to nv driver in xorg.conf... any downsides of this?
[11:32] <n2diy> Recon69: they are all 700mb DLs, GL.
[11:33] <twosouls82> robmaa: now you don't have 3d acceleration
[11:33] <JimQode> Recon69, whichever version you are using. It it's dapper you are right.
[11:33] <robmaa> twosouls82 oh..great... but it doesnt work when i use nvidia.. get that "could not open the device file /dev/nvidia0" and tried lots of things...
[11:34] <shortcake> astro i pasted it for you
[11:34] <dromer> so, can anyone help me turn off dhclient3 on boot?
[11:34] <shortcake> astro76?
[11:35] <twosouls82> robmaa: I have never seen that one appear before... what card are you using? (lspci | grep -i nvidia)
[11:36] <shortcake>  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28463/
[11:37] <shortcake>  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28464/
[11:37] <robmaa> 8800gts... wrote grep -i nvidia in the terminal, but nothing happened and there is no username in front of the line, completely blank now... writing any command doesnt do anything...
[11:37] <shortcake> any help with those erors and sources?
[11:38] <rausb0> robmaa: type: lspci | grep -i nvidia    not grep -i nvidia alone
[11:38] <robmaa> oh :-)
[11:38] <rausb0> robmaa: press ctrl-c first
[11:38] <twosouls82> robmaa: "lspci | grep -i nvidia" is a piped command, the results of the first part is piped to the part behind the "|"
[11:38] <twosouls82> so issue that as is
[11:40] <robmaa> =1:00.0 vga compatible controller: nvidia corp unknown device 0193 (rev a2)
[11:40] <robmaa> oh, that = should be a 0
[11:41] <shimfs> astro76, i am trying your thing with the fwcutter now
[11:41] <twosouls82> robmaa: which driver were you using? from nVidia's site?
[11:41] <shimfs> astro76, i have just said sudo cp /lib/firmware/bcm43xx* /lib/firmware/`uname -r but i just get to the next line in the terminal and it just says > and nothing else happens
[11:42] <twosouls82> shimfs: did you succeed in changing the interface name?
[11:42] <shimfs> astro76, should i exchange uname with my name?
[11:42] <shimfs> twosouls82, yes, but im having dificulities with the rest of the guide :S
[11:42] <shimfs> twosouls82, so right now im trying the solution astro76 gave me
[11:42] <Ross> excuse me, i've a problem whit a bluethoot USB adapter, 'cause i can't connect it to others devices: can someone help me?
[11:42] <robmaa> used sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx and sudo nvidia-glx-config enable and restarted... thats what it said in a guide to install nvidia
[11:43] <twosouls82> shimfs, good luck with it, if it won't work either... just ask for help on the ndiswrapper again
[11:43] <defrysk> robmaa, try sudo nvidia-xconfig
[11:43] <shimfs> twosouls82, ok, my only problem right now, is that astro76  said i should write sudo cp /lib/firmware/bcm43xx* /lib/firmware/`uname -r after i had installet fwcutter
[11:44] <shimfs> twosouls82, but when i write that line exactly as i wrote, i just get to the next line which is > and nothing happens from there, and normal commands wont work
[11:44] <JD45> Hey guys.
[11:44] <astro76> shimfs, you missed the last '
[11:44] <robmaa> defrysk tried that and restarted gdm, but still the same error with could not open the dice file 7dev/nvidia0/
[11:44] <twosouls82> robmaa: try what defrysk says, if that doesn't help either you should try the driver in nvidia-glx-new
[11:44] <astro76> sudo cp /lib/firmware/bcm43xx* /lib/firmware/`uname -r`
[11:44] <JD45> I was just considering a switch to Ubuntu and had some questions. Wondering if anyone could help me out with them?
[11:44] <shimfs> astro76, ah ok,
[11:44] <Flannel> !ask | JD45
[11:44] <ubotu> JD45: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:45] <GreaseMonkey> gonna sleep, gnight
[11:45] <robmaa> twosouls82 do i have to uninstall nvidia-glx first? if yes, plz tell he how :-)
[11:45] <twosouls82> shimfs: like he said :)
[11:45] <astro76> shimfs, after than, I see wireless networks when I click on the panel applet.
[11:45] <Ross> excuse me, i've a problem whit a bluethoot USB adapter, 'cause i can't connect it to others devices: can someone help me?
[11:45] <shimfs> astro76, i just get the information that /lib/firmware/Linux is not a directory
[11:45] <JD45> Okay, I have an Intel Core 2 Duo processor currently running Vista which is demanding of RAM. I'm just curious is Ubuntu will support my hardware. In particular my wireless internet card since I use a router in my home.
[11:45] <shortcake> did you see the errors astro76?
[11:45] <twosouls82> robmaa: I would do that, yes; "sudo aptitude remove nvidia-glx"
[11:45] <shimfs> astro76, when i say sudo cp /lib/firmware/bcm43xx* /lib/firmware/`uname` -r
[11:46] <astro76> shimfs, what does uname -r give you
[11:46] <astro76> shimfs, by itself
[11:46] <Flannel> !wifi | JD45
[11:46] <ubotu> JD45: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:46] <twosouls82> shimfs: odd
[11:46] <astro76> shimfs, you could copy it manually
[11:46] <shimfs> astro76, if i just write `uname` i get bash: Linux: ommand not found
[11:46] <mojojojo__> hi... after suspending my laptop Syntapatic Touchpad doesn't work... do you know how to fix it???
[11:46] <JD45> Thanks ubotu. That's all I needed. I appreciate it.
[11:46] <shimfs> astro76, i will try
[11:46] <Flannel> JD45: that page lists hardware and the methods.  You can also see !hardware, which is a (possibly outdated) hardware compat. list
[11:47] <twosouls82> shimfs: just "uname -r"
[11:47] <astro76> shimfs, no backticks just uname -r
[11:47] <shimfs> astro76, twosouls82 ok
[11:47] <shimfs> 2.6.20-16-lowlatency
[11:47] <shimfs> astro76, twosouls82 i get 2.6.20-16-lowlatency
[11:48] <Flannel> shimfs: Why, may I ask, are you using the low latency kernel?
[11:48] <twosouls82> shimfs: since that is okay, you made a typo in the other one
[11:48] <twosouls82> shimfs: make sure you copy and paste this:
[11:48] <hartono>  /nick petrelli
[11:48] <twosouls82> sudo cp /lib/firmware/bcm43xx* /lib/firmware/`uname -r`
[11:48] <shimfs> twosouls82, so what should i write? exactly
[11:48] <astro76> copy exactly as twosouls82 said
[11:48] <astro76> you got it wrong again
[11:48] <shimfs> Flannel, because some ndiswrapper guide told me to download that, i dont know what else i should download, im new to linux
[11:49] <shortcake> i dont know what to do...
[11:49] <shortcake> i'm stuck..
[11:49] <astro76> shimfs, select the text in xchat, then middle click to paste in gnome terminal
[11:49] <twosouls82> robmaa: any luck?
[11:49] <Flannel> shimfs: Get the -generic one, in main.  lowlatency isn't what you want.  `linux-generic` should do it.  (and remove your low latency ones after a reboot).
[11:49] <shimfs> astro76, what text? the uname -r ?
[11:49] <shimfs> astro76, im a bit confused now :)
[11:49] <shimfs> Flannel, i will look at it when my wireless works
[11:49] <robmaa> twosouls82 i did that, but now get: failed to load module "wfb" (module does not exist) api mismatch the nvidia kernel module has the version 1.0-9631, but this x module has the version 1.0-9755. please make sure....
[11:50] <robmaa> when restarting gdm
[11:50] <astro76> shimfs, it's sudo cp /lib/firmware/bcm43xx* /lib/firmware/`uname -r`   ..... you typed sudo cp /lib/firmware/bcm43xx* /lib/firmware/`uname` -r
[11:50] <astro76> see the difference ?
[11:50] <astro76> last backtick misplaced
[11:50] <shimfs> astro76, ahh thanks
[11:50] <astro76> np
[11:51] <astro76> shortcake, sorry not sure, you're running breezy?
[11:51] <shimfs> astro76, now i typed that, and i get no warning messages or anything, i just get to a new line in the console
[11:51] <twosouls82> robmaa: that is a bug in the package... but since it works; you should download the driver from their (nvidia's) website and install that.. you can also  keep it as is.. as everthing seems to work with the bugged package's driver
[11:51] <shimfs> astro76, is that all i have to do? and then just reboot and try to see if wireless works
[11:51] <astro76> might want to try feisty
[11:51] <ushortcakeu> zes
[11:51] <astro76> shimfs, I didn't have to reboot, just waited about 15 seconds
[11:51] <shimfs> astro76, ok
[11:52] <twosouls82> robmaa: as for the api mismatch; "sudo nano -w /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common"
[11:52] <twosouls82> and add nv
[11:52] <robmaa> twosouls82 can i do that vis the terminal somehow?
[11:52] <shimfs> twosouls82, since i changed the eth0 to wlan0 i have lost the icon for wireless in the network manager :S
[11:52] <robmaa> via
[11:52] <ushortcakeu> so zou didnt see the errors_
[11:52] <twosouls82> shimfs: reboot first
[11:52] <twosouls82> :)
[11:52] <ushortcakeu> ok im fixing the kezs 1 sec
[11:53] <shimfs> twosouls82, i am pretty sure i did, but i will try again
[11:53] <twosouls82> robmaa: you can do this at the terminal :)
[11:53] <rausb0> shortcake: type: cat /etc/issue  ...to see which version of ubuntu you have
[11:53] <robmaa> may i ask how? no idea :-(
[11:53] <Mr_Awesome> what version of windows media player do the w32codecs package support?
[11:54] <twosouls82> robmaa: start a terminal (I don't know it's name for Gnome), and type in the command I gave you and press "ENTER"
[11:54] <burning_> I want to mount guest pc(ubuntu) file system on my system via RJ45..
[11:54] <shortcake> setxkbmap <language_code>
[11:54] <burning_> plz guide me through the steps
[11:54] <twosouls82> it's as simple as that... I assume the terminal is in the menu too, robmaa
[11:55] <twosouls82> after you press enter it will ask you for your root's password
[11:55] <shortcake> astro76 do you want me to post again?
[11:55] <twosouls82> propably your own
[11:55] <robmaa> i already did that with nvidia-glx-new and that got me that problem, after that you didnt wrote another command
[11:55] <shimfs> twosouls82, i have just rebooted, and the wireless is gone since i changed it from eth0 to wlan0
[11:56] <Jusupov> has anybody configured dhcp3-server on 6.06?
[11:56] <twosouls82> shimfs: worked for KDE, might keep its settings from earlier in Gnome... you can change it back if you need to
[11:56] <ushortcakeu> ?
[11:56] <astro76> shimfs, not sure if you read, but my bcm4306 is eth1
[11:56] <ushortcakeu> ok cool
[11:56] <ushortcakeu> i fixed my key layout
[11:56] <shimfs> astro76, hmm ah ok, i will try to switch it back to eth0 then
[11:56] <astro76> should probably try changing back
[11:57] <ushortcakeu> no i can do commands right
[11:57] <twosouls82> robmaa: you did "sudo nano -w /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common" ?
[11:57] <twosouls82> and added nv to the list?
[11:57] <passbe> is there a way of showing what programs are currently accessing the lan / internet ?
[11:57] <twosouls82> astro76: nice you noticed that :)
[11:58] <twosouls82> passbe: netstat
[11:58] <robmaa> didnt do that twosouls82, will do that now
[11:58] <Jusupov> netstat -a
[11:58] <ushortcakeu> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28463/
[11:58] <twosouls82> robmaa: make it read; DISABLED_MODULES="nv"
[11:58] <petrelli> eeee
[11:59] <passbe> thx
[11:59] <Jusupov> dhcp3-server?anyone?
[11:59] <ushortcakeu> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28464/
[11:59] <Jusupov> I did change my eth0 to static
[11:59] <shortcake> are those correct?
[12:00] <robmaa> ok, wrote that line in the restricted-modules common file, now?
[12:00] <Jusupov> I did change the default network card to listen to eth0
[12:00] <twosouls82> robmaa, reboot and enjoy the driver you installed
[12:00] <bluebanana> when i press the PrintScreen  button nothing happens. how can i diagnose the problem?
[12:00] <robmaa> twosouls82 you mean the nvidia-glx-new?
[12:01] <Snoopotic> hi
[12:01] <Dark> hello
[12:01] <Dark> is there anyone to help me here?
[12:01] <Jusupov> hello Dark
[12:02] <Jusupov> whats your problem?
[12:02] <twosouls82> yep, it will work, even with the missing wfb module; I suggest you install the driver from Nvidia's website eventually (using a tut you search for usin Google, there are plenty)
[12:02] <JimQode> !ask | Dark
[12:02] <ubotu> Dark: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:02] <Dark> i need to install a pci graphics card
[12:02] <Dark> but if i insert it and load ubuntu
[12:02] <Dark> i get kernel panic
[12:02] <twosouls82> robmaa: ---^
[12:02] <burning_> Can anyone help me with samba server
[12:02] <Dark> because of the nondisableable integrated graphics card
[12:03] <Dark> how can i disable it manually via ubuntu?
[12:03] <Jusupov> Dark> you can't disable it in the BIOS, is it?
[12:03] <Dark> no i cant disable it in the bios
[12:04] <twosouls82> Dark: try to update the bios first
[12:04] <twosouls82> I would do that :)
[12:04] <Dark> i did
[12:04] <Snoopotic> i downloaded ubuntu 704 64 bit (have a amd64 3000+ 2GBRAM with ati x800xl) tried do boot from CD but theres just "loading kernel" then screen gets black, pc freezes and my keyboard-leds for capslock and another one (not numlock, the other I dunno ^^) are blining... I  hvae tohardreset... any idea what that might be?
[12:04] <Dark> basically i though of blacklisting the intel-agp
[12:04] <Snoopotic> starting in save graphical mode does the same
[12:04] <Dark> but how?
[12:05] <robmaa> twosouls82 well, the failed wfb is still there like you said, but next to it is "need libwfb but wfbscreeninit not found and fatal server error addscreen/screeninit failed for driver 0

[12:07] <bronze> I'm using utorrent thru wine and at first everything was good but now I can't get the main window to open. The tray icon is there, and I can see that it's downloading but I can't open the window. Suggestions?
[12:07] <ushortcakeu> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28463/
[12:08] <Snoopotic> ha... stange I also cannot do the integrity check :/
[12:08] <defrysk> ushortcakeu, last line change ezy to breezy
[12:08] <twosouls82> bronze: yeah, use deluge of ktorrent or so :)
[12:08] <twosouls82> s/of/or/
[12:08] <shortcake> ok
[12:08] <bronze> twosouls82, I AM going to install one of those, but first I must finish my existing torrents!
[12:08] <shortcake> is that all?
[12:09] <defrysk> ushortcakeu, then do sudo apt-get update
[12:09] <shortcake> are those repositors ok?
[12:09] <shortcake> ok just 1 sec
[12:09] <twosouls82> bronze: kill all wine processes and restart utorrent
[12:10] <defrysk> and ushortcakeu may I advise you to install a later version of ubuntu ? breezy is a bit outdated
[12:10] <mobal> reconnect
[12:10] <ushortcakeu> i have to use this version
[12:11] <defrysk> ushortcakeu, why ?
[12:11] <ushortcakeu> i have used it before
[12:11] <ushortcakeu> because i have a crap load of other linux ps'c
[12:11] <bronze> twosouls82, didn't work :(
[12:11] <ushortcakeu> and this one is running breezy
[12:11] <defrysk> ushortcakeu, not sure but breezy in afaIk no longer maintained
[12:11] <ushortcakeu> i just want it is all
[12:12] <ushortcakeu> afalk?
[12:12] <defrysk> as far as I know
[12:12] <ushortcakeu> so you think my sources look good?
[12:12] <twosouls82> bronze: you are sure you did "killall wine && killall wineserver"
[12:12] <ushortcakeu> what about just compiling the k3b source?
[12:12] <defrysk> ushortcakeu, yup exept for the ezy-security bit
[12:13] <robmaa> twosouls82: what do i have to do now?
[12:13] <Dark> how do i blacklist intel-agp?
[12:13] <ushortcakeu> ok
[12:13] <bronze> twosouls82, killall wine gives "killed no process"
[12:13] <bronze> but I did kill wineserver
[12:13] <ushortcakeu> i dont know how hard it is to compile k3b in breezy
[12:13] <twosouls82> bronze: and that didn't work? then I don't know
[12:14] <twosouls82> robmaa: I am going to your pm
[12:14] <astro76> ushortcakeu, many times more difficult than getting your apt-get working
[12:14] <Temik> Can anyone help me? I've reinstalled wine and now Icons are not showing up in the applications menu!!!((((
[12:14] <ushortcakeu> what do you suggest?
[12:14] <Temik> I've reinstalled 5 times and still no use!
[12:14] <ushortcakeu> i cant upgrade the os
[12:14] <Hultiz> Temik, that happened to me as well, but it still worked
[12:14] <astro76> ushortcakeu, fixing it as defrysk said
[12:14] <defrysk> ushortcakeu, my suggestion is to download ubuntu-feisty
[12:15] <rivalmel> hello, thank you in advance for any and all assistance. Using Ubuntu 7.04, all updates, and a generic HP 5 button mouse, I have no middle mouse button feature, as if it doesn't register at all. Scrolling works fine. Any direction I should take?
[12:15] <cosme> yes feisty is good
[12:15] <tommy_> I need help with installing feisty with the alternate cd, it doesnt detect my cd rom drive. Any help?, where can i find a driver floppy with linux drivers on it?
[12:15] <ushortcakeu> i have to use breezy because i am running it on an xbox as well and i want to have a pc running it so i can troubleshootr
[12:15] <bluebanana> Hi. Is there a CLI/terminal program to "listen" as I press keys? I want to test whether some keys on my keyboard are defective. Thank you.
[12:15] <Hultiz> Hello. I accidentally removed the activity field from the upper panel, how do I get it back?
[12:15] <slowz> ushortcakeu: that messed up repo was a src repo you still shoud have still been able to apt-get install k3b
[12:16] <astro76> rivalmel, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto
[12:16] <ushortcakeu> hmm
[12:16] <rivalmel> thank you astro76
[12:16] <defrysk> ushortcakeu, the problem with breezy is that without maintenance the os is not secure anymore
[12:16] <ushortcakeu> what happens if i add fiesty sources?
[12:16] <bronze> Which application should I go for? Deluge for KTorrent?
[12:16] <twosouls82> are you ready for it robmaa?
[12:16] <robmaa> jeah
[12:17] <robmaa> like i wrote in the pm :-)
[12:17] <ushortcakeu> i dont care if it's secure i just need k3b
[12:17] <battlesquid> hello, i don't know what happend but now i can't hear sounds anylonger (i have done no settings manually) in ubuntu feisty
[12:17] <Temik> Hultiz: Yes I know! But I am a newbie at wine and I can not find all the needed apps
[12:17] <cosme> lol
[12:17] <twosouls82> I am in a private message with you, so that we don't flood the channel to much
[12:17] <defrysk> ushortcakeu, better to do a fresh install : you are 3 versions away from feisty
[12:17] <cosme> why do you all use wine?
[12:17] <ushortcakeu> better to do a fresh install?
[12:17] <ushortcakeu> of breezy?
[12:17] <defrysk> ushortcakeu, yes
[12:17] <defrysk> no of feisty
[12:17] <battlesquid> ushortcakeu, make sure you back up your home folder :)
[12:18] <ushortcakeu> do they make fiesty for xbox?
[12:18] <defrysk> ushortcakeu, breezy is outdated as I said earlyer
[12:18] <ushortcakeu> this is a fresh install of breezy
[12:18] <cosme> im sure you can install fiesty on xbox
[12:18] <ushortcakeu> ok
[12:18] <Hultiz> Temik, start your home folder and press ctrl + h to show hidden files and folders. Then you should find a .wine folder which contains a fake windows and a drive_c
[12:19] <twosouls82> robmaa: can't find the private message?
[12:19] <ushortcakeu> xbox needs a modded kernel
[12:19] <ushortcakeu> i already have the bios installed
[12:19] <defrysk> ushortcakeu, http://www.xbox-linux.org/wiki/Download#xUbuntu
[12:19] <cosme> i used wine before but i had too many problems with support and what not. so i just installed vmware and have windows xp as a guest pc - but i never use it
[12:20] <ushortcakeu> ok
[12:20] <ushortcakeu> thats breezy
[12:20] <defrysk> ushortcakeu, I noticed,
[12:20] <robmaa> oooh twosouls82 sorry, im not registered, thats why...
[12:20] <Temik> Can someone at least tell me how to edit the gnome menu? The one with the applications list.....
[12:20] <twosouls82> robmaa: please do that first, I won't flood the channel
[12:21] <mobal> hey
[12:21] <ushortcakeu> i have a whole setup here with a usb dvd burner installed in the controller port of the xbox and i just now need a burning app
[12:21] <mobal> how can i change the console language?
[12:21] <ushortcakeu> k3b is the best though
[12:21] <defrysk> ushortcakeu, have a look here http://www.xbox-linux.org/wiki/Users_Help_Users
[12:21] <Temik>  Can someone at least tell me how to edit the gnome menu? The one with the applications list.....
[12:21] <Rage_> K3B!!!
[12:21] <slowz> ushortcakeu: have you fixed ezy to breezy
[12:21] <defrysk> ushortcakeu, maybe you can get help there
[12:21] <ushortcakeu> yes
[12:22] <tommy_> hello.
[12:22] <ushortcakeu> i fixed it
[12:22] <Hultiz> Temik, do you actually need a shortcut to wine? you will still use the terminal to start programs with it
[12:22] <ushortcakeu> let me check again
[12:22] <Temik> I just started using it yesterday........
[12:22] <OMGLAZERS> join #xubuntu
[12:22] <OMGLAZERS> Whoops D:
[12:23] <Temik> So I really don't know how........
[12:23] <ushortcakeu> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28463/
[12:23] <ushortcakeu> oops
[12:23] <ushortcakeu>                                               deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy multiverse breezy-security universe
[12:23] <ushortcakeu> thats right?
[12:23] <tommy_> maybe
[12:23] <OMGLAZERS> Hey everyone im trying to unhide a file which I dont think a script is able to find but after using 'show hidden files' I can. Its .config in /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.17-10-generic (and non generic). How can I disable a file from hiding itself.
[12:23] <Hultiz> Temik, just google ubuntu wine and whatever you want to install with it and you will probably find some nice walkthroughs
[12:24] <Temik> Hultiz: Ok thanks I'll try.... But I really need to edit the meny for other reasons//////
[12:24] <OMGLAZERS> Oh wait. It doesnt show files that begin with a . ?
[12:24] <cosme> lll
[12:24] <astro76> Temik, hit alt+f2 and in there put: ghelp:system-admin-guide?menustructure-0
[12:25] <Temik> Thanks astro!
[12:25] <Hultiz> awesome stuff astro76 =)
[12:25] <astro76> also http://standards.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/menu-spec-1.0.html
[12:26] <Temik> OMG! Thank you very much!
[12:26] <defrysk> ushortcakeu, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28467/
[12:26] <Temik> Ok bye everyone! And thanks!
[12:26] <astro76> I was doing the same thing yesterday
[12:26] <astro76> np
[12:27] <KennyTheGeek> Hmm... how do i download all the content of a folder through ftp with wget?
[12:28] <slowz> ushortcakeu: i see that breezy is not in this repo http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/
[12:28] <ushortcakeu>  what should i do?
[12:28] <slowz> like he said i dont think breezy is suported anymore
[12:28] <astro76> ushortcakeu, it still doesn't work?
[12:29] <chronographer> hello folks,   have a problem with f-spot. it soedn't import photos from my ricoh caplio camera properly. ie. it imports the correct number of files biut they're empty... any ideas?
[12:29] <chronographer> Should I ditch it and try picasa?
[12:29] <defrysk> ushortcakeu, I think you should get another linuxdistro for xbox , breezy is too old
[12:29] <RivaeAerya> i'm going to download a LiveCD. How can i pump over the ISO to the computer (with windows) that CAN burn? (this one can't, but the download speeds here are much higher)
[12:29] <chronographer> yes
[12:29] <chronographer> an iso file is just a cd image... its portable
[12:30] <chronographer> oh...  'HOW'
[12:30] <astro76> RivaeAerya, are they connected via network?
[12:30] <RivaeAerya> astro76: via internet, yes.
[12:30] <RivaeAerya> they both have internet
[12:30] <RivaeAerya> but there's no network cable inbetween them. But we're on a LAN
[12:30] <RivaeAerya> so i think we're networked
[12:30] <Insomnia1> Hello from a Newbie! What does this mean and how do I correct it? bogl_init failed. I am running Feisty
[12:30] <ushortcakeu> breezy is really fast though
[12:30] <astro76> RivaeAerya, are you firewalled on the linux machine?
[12:30] <RivaeAerya> astro76: yes
[12:31] <ushortcakeu> i cant get k3b to install on debian eighter
[12:31] <astro76> RivaeAerya, install openssh-server on linux
[12:31] <ushortcakeu> but i did it on gentoox and it's just too slow
[12:31] <RivaeAerya> astro76: already up 'n runnin'
[12:31] <astro76> RivaeAerya, forward port 22 through to that machine
[12:31] <astro76> RivaeAerya, use filezilla on linux to connect with sftp
[12:31] <astro76> RivaeAerya, err windows
[12:31] <RivaeAerya> filezilla?
[12:32] <astro76> opensource ftp client
[12:32] <astro76> http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/
[12:32] <Myrtti> RivaeAerya: or any other sftp cabable client software
[12:32] <RivaeAerya> ok
[12:32] <RivaeAerya> (nautilus?)
[12:32] <astro76> oh it's linux on both ends?
[12:33] <RivaeAerya> no
[12:33] <RivaeAerya> my computer is linux, the other is windows
[12:34] <astro76> all that's needed on linux is to install openssh-server, it will just work
[12:34] <chronographer> Can someone suggest a reason f-spot will import fiels from my Ricoh as empty, but correctly named image files?
[12:34] <RivaeAerya> firestarter already has "allow port 22 to everyone", but it doesn't work
[12:34] <chronographer> filezilla is really easy.. just put in the ip of your linux box and your linux username and password
[12:34] <ushortcakeu> what did you mean by you didn't see breezy?
[12:35] <astro76> RivaeAerya, I don't use firewalling on my linux boxes, but it sounds like you need to allow it in, not out
[12:35] <RivaeAerya> astro76: my router blocks outside attempts anyway so i guess i can disable it
[12:35] <mobal_> hello
[12:35] <astro76> RivaeAerya, you need to forward port 22 on the router to your linux machine
[12:35] <mobal> hello
[12:36] <RivaeAerya> astro76: i want to pump the file over to the Windows box, not to the linux one
[12:36] <chronographer> you must port forward on the router also
[12:36] <babarhaq> Hi all I just installed dia on 7.04. It doesent appear in any menu though I can run it from command prompt?
[12:36] <RivaeAerya> chronographer: no, we're on a LAN, it's alright.
[12:36] <Myrtti> !samba | RivaeAerya
[12:36] <ubotu> RivaeAerya: 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
[12:36] <ushortcakeu> oh wow
[12:36] <astro76> RivaeAerya, right but the windows machine makes the connection to the linux machine
[12:36] <chronographer> you still need ip for lan though
[12:36] <ushortcakeu> i see what you mean now
[12:36] <astro76> RivaeAerya, the linux machine is the server
[12:36] <RivaeAerya> astro76: to download? alright
[12:36] <Eric_Jardas> Does anyone know where is a tutor about making linux look like mac os..i lost the url
[12:36] <ushortcakeu> i guess it's back to debian
[12:36] <chronographer> www.google.com
[12:36] <astro76> RivaeAerya, the reverse connection to send the file is automatically allowed
[12:37] <RivaeAerya> alright
[12:37] <ushortcakeu> thanks guys i just feel like i was so close
[12:37] <ushortcakeu> have a good night/day
[12:37] <defrysk> ushortcakeu, breezy is just not secure and unmaintained, sorry
[12:38] <defrysk> and good luck with the mother distro :)
[12:39] <RivaeAerya> astro76: what's sftp?
[12:39] <chronographer> secure file transfer protocol
[12:39] <astro76> and it's part of ssh
[12:39] <RivaeAerya> ok
[12:40] <astro76> you could potentially use scp also, but this is easiest
[12:41] <babarhaq> Hi all I just installed dia on 7.04. It doesent appear in any menu though I can run it from command prompt?
[12:42] <Ernz> Anyone know how to add Script-Fu scripts in the Gimp?
[12:42] <babarhaq> can some one tell me where to report it at least?
[12:42] <Ernz> babarhaq - press ALT + F2 and type "dia"
[12:43] <toni22> antonio
[12:43] <sirus> OpenBSD's packet filtering system do they have that for ubuntu or something equalvent to it?
[12:43] <astro76> babarhaq, you could install dia-gnome instead
[12:43] <toni22> es guapo,rubio,ojos azules

[12:48] <DerangedDingo> Hey everybody, sorry to just jump in, but my TTYs are messed up. The font is too large and goes offscreen, making it difficult to even log in sometimes. Is there a .conf file that needs to be edited somewhere?

[01:14] <currach> 'tis indee-ad
[01:14] <sn0> shukran5 before you booted from the cd, did you check the cd for defects at the main menu? or maybe check the md5 sum before burning
[01:15] <shukran5> well now - i got it from a linux mag cd.
[01:15] <sirus> Is there documentation on tighting up security on the ubuntu workstation its not a server but i wanna make sure its updated and secured..
[01:17] <shukran5> it is hanging but the cd version is still loaded behind it like
[01:17] <shukran5> i can still use the menu options top left
[01:17] <currach> shukran5 I saw that happen and took the agricultural approach and rebooted. Worked fine the second time - no idea why.
[01:17] <ci_omegadog> Anyone here use lighttpd on Ubuntu?
[01:17] <sn0> shukran5 hmm worth a reboot, maybe give the disk a clean but there is definately an option on the ubuntu cd to test the cd for defects
[01:17] <shukran5> it says Configuring apt then flow tube stuck at 82% and then scanning the mirror
[01:17] <shukran5> ok.  i will give it a lash.  thanks boys
[01:17] <sn0> that system is online shukran5 ?
[01:17] <ci_omegadog> btw- with ~50 Ubuntu related channels on freenode, there should be one for Ubuntu server.
[01:17] <shukran5> should be really
[01:17] <rambo3> there is
[01:17] <sn0> so its not timing out or anything, maybe check your dns is working correctly
[01:17] <shukran5> it was connected to a lan when on windows
[01:17] <shukran5> k
[01:17] <ci_omegadog> what's the server related channel
[01:17] <ci_omegadog> ?
[01:17] <Mulder> in Gnome X-Chat 0.16, (using 7.04) how do I get the userlist to show up on my right hand side like it does in regular x-chat
[01:17] <rambo3> #ubuntu-server ?
[01:18] <sn0> Mulder im not sure but i just installed xchat instead of gnome xchat
[01:18] <Mulder> sn0: that might just work! heh guess i'll do that
[01:18] <ci_omegadog> dug...
[01:18] <ci_omegadog> err duh.. that's rambo
[01:18] <ci_omegadog> err thanks rambo- sorry, just off a 12 hr shift :)
[01:19] <Mulder> also, is there any way to get compiz/beryl working with ati proprietary fglrx drivers?
[01:19] <rambo3> #ubuntu #ubuntu-kernel  #ubuntu-server are best here
[01:19] <ajmorris_> anyone used bin2iso to convert a .bin file to a .iso here?
[01:19] <c1|freaky> lol http://www.digiplace.nl/images/81971182_49a82c1cd7.jpg <-- ubuntu logo ... i'd like to have my head there, too ;D
[01:19] <currach> Back soon, must feed some kids. Working from him is great.
[01:19] <Mulder> radeon works out of the box, but radeon driver has a noticeable rendering lag compared to fglrx even for menial tasks like browsing webpages with firefox
[01:19] <rambo3> ajmorris_, bschunk
[01:19] <ukubuntu> Hi, I am unable to play any video in vlc or mplayer, including ogg theora. Music is fin mp3 and ogg vorbis. when the video file starts to play the player stops or closes itself pretty instantly. compiz and beryl not running at the time
[01:19] <sn0> Mulder please https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DesktopEffects
[01:19] <rambo3> ajmorris_, bchunk
[01:20] <ukubuntu> fin - fine
[01:20] <ajmorris_> rambo3, needs a .cue file
[01:20] <ajmorris_> i dont have one
[01:20] <sn0> +see
[01:20] <sn0> :)

[01:21] <tesa> yuyhy
[01:21] <Mulder> sn0: cheers
[01:21] <sn0> np
[01:21] <hylje> ajmorris_: you can generally guess the cuesheet, given the cd has only one track
[01:21] <ajmorris_> hylje: but how would i generate one for bchunk to use?
[01:22] <Mulder> by the looks of the articles it looks like aiglx is the solution iinstalled out of the box
[01:22] <PG> ive start beryl and the dragg bar disapeard
[01:22] <sn0> Mulder i believe your choices are either aiglx with auto detected radeon driver, or alternatively fglrx + xgl
[01:22] <hylje> ajmorris_: take an existing 1-track cuesheet, open it with a text editor to point at the right .bin
[01:22] <Edzhjus> ok..i tried that debian skype but Ubuntu 6.06 says that it won`t work so can`t install..any other ideas to get skype?
[01:22] <Mulder> sn0: sounds good. guess i'll keep fglrx around at least until they fix the rendering penalty in radeon
[01:23] <ajmorris_> hylje: first i need an existing cuesheet......
[01:23] <hylje> ajmorris_: i dont have any handy, sorry
[01:23] <ajmorris_> :(
[01:23] <RivaeAerya> astro76: i tried to connect but it's just showing the welcome message and then times out.
[01:24] <ajmorris_> the problem is, i used bin2iso, but it creates a non iso9660, so i cant mount it
[01:24] <sn0> Edzhjus you can download the dynamic static file from skype website and use on dapper
[01:24] <sn0> as they only list a deb for feisty fawn
[01:24] <sirus> Is there documentation on tighting up security on the ubuntu workstation its not a server but i wanna make sure its updated and secured..
[01:25] <sn0> sirus maybe check the security debian manual, its mainly server orientated but gives you a few things to check
[01:25] <sn0> im not sure i would use the kernel patches, i leave that up to you
[01:25] <sn0> http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/securing-debian-howto/
[01:25] <sirus> hrmm alright
[01:26] <sirus> i just installed feisty do I need kernel updates?
[01:26] <sirus> patches
[01:26] <Edzhjus> hms..and what about this one? http://www.skype.com/intl/en/download/skype/linux/repositories.html
[01:26] <sn0> defaults are generally fine unless you have a reason to change them
[01:26] <PG> i found my problem ciao
[01:26] <Zentax> Hey all, Im having issues with formatting & mounting a new 400GB SATA HDD
[01:26] <sn0> those are for debian etch Edzhjus , i haven't tried
[01:26] <Zentax> first i do
[01:26] <Zentax> sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/sdb (after i have run fdisk)
[01:27] <RivaeAerya> I'm trying to connect to my SFTP server but it's just showing the welcome message and then times out. How can i fix t his?
[01:27] <Zentax> oh wait.. never mind.
[01:27] <Zentax> fixed my problem :p
[01:27] <sn0> nice Zentax :-)
[01:27] <Zentax> oh wait no sorry i did not lol :p
[01:27] <sn0> RivaeAerya check the /var/log/auth.log to see why
[01:27] <Zentax> ok back to my problem. i run that command first.
[01:27] <Zentax> then i do a
[01:27] <sn0> also try logging in via ssh shell only, and check the log again
[01:27] <Zentax> mount -t ext3 /dev/sdb1 /storage
[01:27] <RivaeAerya> Jul  4 13:20:30 robin-desktop sshd[7494] : Did not receive identification string from 192.168.1.65
[01:27] <Edzhjus> sn0, which one you suggest - dynamic or static?
[01:28] <Zentax> and get an invalid file system type. i.e. it doesnt see it as an ext3
[01:28] <RivaeAerya> sn0: Jul  4 13:20:30 robin-desktop sshd[7494] : Did not receive identification string from 192.168.1.65
[01:28] <sn0> Edzhjus i dont use skype sorry
[01:28] <sn0> i use wengophone :)
[01:28] <Zentax> Am i missing a step? I have google a few different methods for doing this.
[01:28] <Zentax> All of which seem to give me the same results.
[01:28] <sn0> Zentax maybe install gparted (front end to parted) and try through that
[01:29] <Edzhjus> is it compatible to skype?
[01:29] <Zentax> Ahh kk sn0 thanks ill give that a shot :)
[01:29] <sn0> Edzhjus no, as skype is proprietary
[01:29] <sn0> unfortunately
[01:29] <RivaeAerya> sn0: Jul  4 13:20:30 robin-desktop sshd[7494] : Did not receive identification string from 192.168.1.65. What does this mean?
[01:29] <sn0> RivaeAerya did you try connecting via ssh only? not sftp
[01:30] <Zentax> tis ok i fixed it now sn0. i was doning mkfs.ext3 on /dev/sdb (not /dev/sdb1). Thanks for the suggestion :)
[01:30] <sn0> how are you connecting via sftp on the client
[01:30] <sn0> ah yea Zentax the partition not the disk :)
[01:30] <RivaeAerya> sn0: i used FIleZilla, and in the top typed in my ip address and username and password
[01:30] <RivaeAerya> and the port 22
[01:30] <Zentax> yup just realised when i hit the up key :p
[01:30] <mikes1> Beryl is no more?
[01:30] <sn0> RivaeAerya try upgrading your filezilla, if you are on windows then try winscp (its very good)
[01:30] <RivaeAerya> sn0: alright
[01:30] <sn0> but in linux gnome/kde all have facility to connect over sftp easily
[01:31] <sn0> mikes beryl + compiz == compiz-fusion
[01:31] <sn0> mikes1 even
[01:32] <mikes1> sn0: available for debian?
[01:32] <ajmorris_> mikes1, compiz-fusion is still in beta however
[01:32] <mikes1> ok
[01:32] <sn0> thats a good point ajmorris_  :)
[01:32] <ajmorris_> mikes1, but yes you can get it for debian.... if you want to run it, try tuxfamily.org ;)
[01:32] <gugu> hi
[01:33] <ajmorris_> mikes1, +add the tuxfamily.org repos from their site :)
[01:33] <mikes1> ajmorris_: stable enough?
[01:34] <sn0> i didnt find it any less stable than beryl, but mileage may vary
[01:34] <ajmorris_> mikes1, i find it is..... ive had no crashes at all.... just dont use the fusion-icon pacakge, its not stable at all.
[01:35] <mikes1> I want to install Ubuntu on my sata along with debian,,Q will Ubuntu see Debian,,Grub?
[01:35] <ajmorris_> mikes1, you use nvidia ?
[01:35] <mikes1> yes
[01:35] <mikes1> Geforce 6200
[01:35] <SummerRain> Who knows how to change filesystem  default codepage ?
[01:36] <ajmorris_> mikes1, there is also something you must add to make it work on nvidia.... a simple     sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals -d 24
[01:36] <srojas> f
[01:36] <mikes1> ok
[01:36] <srojas> que pasa
[01:36] <ajmorris_> mikes1, but give it a shot... if it doesnt work straight out,  #compiz-fusion will help you out :)
[01:39] <jpw87> anyone home?
[01:39] <jpw87> oops wrong channel
[01:39] <jpw87> sorry
[01:40] <ajmorris_> where is the config file for su password?..... i get auth failed, and sudo cd doesnt work as it doesnt find the cd command
[01:40] <Oni-Dracula> in update-manager what does it mean when there is an update item (liferea) but it cannot be checked for update?
[01:41] <jpw87> ajmorris_:  "sudo passwd" i think
[01:41] <dalesone> hi hi peoples.   i just did the big more from microsoft, and wanted to scab some help here :D
[01:41] <jpw87> yup
[01:41] <ajmorris_> yep that worked, thanx jpw87
[01:41] <jpw87> do: sudo passwd then you can change it :)
[01:41] <dalesone> i cant find a nvidia driver for the geforce 7950 :|
[01:41] <jpw87> cool
[01:42] <dalesone> im not sure if this is classed as linux x84 or x64
[01:42] <jpw87> dalesone: go to system administration
[01:42] <jpw87> restricted drivers manager
[01:42] <jpw87> :)
[01:42] <Assassin`> ok
[01:42] <Assassin`> :)
[01:43] <Assassin`> dalesone: did you get that?
[01:43] <dalesone> thanks jpw87.   altho when i try enable it is says, Another synaptic is running
[01:44] <Assassin`> then close it :)
[01:44] <Assassin`> are you in a terminal
[01:44] <Assassin`> running a sudo apt-get
[01:44] <Assassin`> or doing an update
[01:44] <Assassin`> ?
[01:44] <Assassin`> or do you have the synaptic open?
[01:44] <dalesone> soz,  im a linux virgin  1st day on it
[01:44] <Costel> how can i add reverse domain to all my IP from LAN with bind?
[01:44] <Assassin`> :)
[01:44] <Zentax> omg my ubuntu software updates are going sooooooo slow.. might be the mirror im downloading off.. going at like <1KB/sec :(
[01:45] <Zentax> 6000B/s :(
[01:45] <Assassin`> Costel: that i don't know :)
[01:45] <dalesone> oh it must be my software updates
[01:45] <Assassin`> yup dalesone
[01:45] <Assassin`> [07:44:20]  <Assassin`> or doing an update
[01:45] <Costel> someone else?
[01:45] <dalesone> thx for the help assassin :P
[01:45] <Assassin`> yup :)
[01:46] <dalesone> and does that auto-update at all?
[01:46] <Assassin`> o yea
[01:46] <dalesone> awesome
[01:46] <stefg> dalesone: right. Note that only one instance of the package manager (although there might be different frontends to it) can run at at once.
[01:46] <Assassin`> its one driver
[01:46] <dalesone> im loving the OS already
[01:46] <Assassin`> haha
[01:46] <Assassin`> windows crashed on me so i switched like 3-4 months ago
[01:46] <stefg> dalesone: wait until you have to fix your first bug :-)
[01:46] <dalesone> just one more question,  can i browse to windows (ntfs) partitions?
[01:46] <Assassin`> i've learned alot
[01:47] <Assassin`> hmm
[01:47] <dalesone> coz all my movies, tv series and mp3's are on my windows partition :S lol
[01:47] <Assassin`> sudo apt-get install gparted
[01:47] <Assassin`> but thats for resizing :/
[01:47] <Assassin`> hold on
[01:48] <Imitation> dalesone: it is possible. ubuntuusers.con can help you with "ntfs-3g"
[01:48] <stefg> dalesone: as long as you only need to read from it, no further action is necessary. to write ntfs there's some extra driver to install.
[01:48] <Assassin`> yea sorry :)
[01:48] <lieter> strange, i uninstalled ubuntu on my laptop for a few other distro's now i install it again, and my /dev/sda is now called /dev/hdc :S
[01:49] <stefg> dalesone: if you plan on dual booting for a time, it might be wiser to put the media stuff to a separate, shared fat32 partition
[01:50] <Assassin`> OR go get a nice gigantic usb drive and transfer :P
[01:50] <stefg> OR go get a nice gigantic usb drive and transfer
[01:50] <dalesone> yeah i need one of those :D
[01:50] <stefg> OR go get a nice gigantic usb drive and transfer and have a backup
[01:50] <Assassin`> :)
[01:50] <Assassin`> i wish i could have afforded one :?
[01:50] <dalesone> well if the OS can run battlefield 2, quake 3 and newer games i wnt need to dual boot,  im sick of windows :D
[01:51] <Assassin`> :/*
[01:51] <lieter> dalesone, it does quake 3 ;)
[01:51] <dalesone> bhaad!   there is a god
[01:51] <Assassin`> linux should run any game! lol
[01:51] <Assassin`> hey dalesone
[01:51] <stefg> dalesone: this very much depneds on how well your graphic card is supported. ATi sx with linux
[01:51] <Assassin`> yup
[01:51] <Assassin`> i have radeon xpress 200
[01:52] <Assassin`> sux bad
[01:52] <Assassin`> but i'm running compiz fusion :)
[01:52] <Imitation> assassin: with xgl?
[01:52] <Assassin`> yes
[01:52] <Assassin`> :)
[01:53] <dalesone> well im hoping my gf7950 is strong enough :D
[01:53] <Assassin`> well fire hurts my screen
[01:53] <Assassin`> :/
[01:53] <Assassin`> O_O
[01:53] <dalesone> i hate ATI    i had one years ago and it blew uo on me
[01:53] <lieter> howcome my realtek 8168B worked fine before and after reinstalling ubuntu it doesnt?
[01:53] <__JW__> so does anyone know if Songbird works well on Ubuntu Feisty / i386?
[01:53] <Assassin`> lol mine is integrated
[01:53] <Assassin`> :P
[01:53] <dalesone> lol   <3 onboard
[01:53] <filthpig> dalesone: Id and Epic develop games for linux (i.e. Doom and Quake), while wine and cedega will run quite a few games too..
[01:53] <Assassin`> __JW__: yes it does
[01:54] <Assassin`> i think you have to go get automatix
[01:54] <Assassin`> from the website
[01:54] <filthpig> although not with a quite as good fps as in native windoze
[01:54] <__JW__> thanks assassin
[01:54] <Assassin`> yw
[01:54] <Surkow> some games even run with more fps
[01:54] <lieter> filthpig, lies, my UT2K4 runs BETTER(20% more fps) on ubuntu then in windows
[01:54] <Surkow> but there will always be glitches
[01:55] <Imitation> filthpig: thats called "naive windows"
[01:55] <filthpig> lieter: through wine or cedega?
[01:55] <lieter> filthpig, native
[01:55] <filthpig> ah
[01:55] <Assassin`> cedega
[01:55] <dalesone> well i was getting 23k/s downloads in windows an hour ago
[01:55] <Assassin`> i havn't heard of that
[01:55] <Assassin`> what is it?
[01:55] <filthpig> well, I said that wne or cedega will run games with lower fps
[01:55] <dalesone> istall ubuntu  500kb/s
[01:55] <lieter> filthpig, thats normal, cause it adds another layer
[01:55] <filthpig> assassin: www.cedega.com
[01:56] <filthpig> windows emulator to run games
[01:56] <Assassin`> dalesone: that depends on download location
[01:56] <filthpig> costs approx $5 pr month
[01:56] <filthpig> wine is free though
[01:56] <japan> open source - shit!!!
[01:56] <japan> open source - shit!!!
[01:56] <japan> open source - shit!!!
[01:56] <japan> open source - shit!!!

[01:56] <filthpig> erh
[01:56] <Surkow> 0_0
[01:56] <Imitation> can someob
[01:57] <Assassin`> i bet it runs steam don't it?
[01:57] <Imitation> bab
[01:57] <filthpig> open source is the shit, that's right
[01:57] <lieter> Assassin`, cedega does steam
[01:57] <PriceChild> !ohmy | filthpig
[01:57] <ubotu> filthpig: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[01:57] <Surkow> maybe japan meant something "open source is the shit"
[01:57] <Surkow> XD
[01:57] <Assassin`> thats why it costs money :P
[01:57] <Assassin`> lolz
[01:57] <filthpig> PriceChild: I know, I know.. Just had to spin it off japan's famous last words
[01:57] <lieter> Assassin`, i had a *cough**cough* version

[01:58] <lieter> sorry if that didnt fit the policy
[01:58] <ssn> hi
[01:58] <filthpig> lieter: that's aka "promoting use of coughcoughs" ;)
[01:58] <KuDeTa> anyone willing to help me to get my ftp server working on ubuntu drapper server
[01:59] <KuDeTa> please :)
[01:59] <lieter> i'll stfu then filthpig
[01:59] <KuDeTa> i think im having issues with 1vp6
[01:59] <ssn> i have a problem with ubuntu studio. my sound isnt working anymore.
[01:59] <stumc> afternoon. what command tells me if i have a package installed? or should i just install if im not sure and it will tell me if its already on my system ?
[01:59] <IceLink> does sourceforge.net work? Somehow, i can't download anything from there using ubuntu
[01:59] <IceLink> ah, now
[01:59] <alleyoopster> stumc: run synaptic and search for your package there
[02:00] <stumc> alleyoopster: i dont have access to gui, just ssh.
[02:00] <alleyoopster> stumc: or try apt-cache show
[02:00] <filthpig> yawn
[02:00] <stumc> thanks
[02:00] <ssn> i put my thinkpad t41p into standby, and now sound isnt working anymore
[02:01] <ssn> nothing is muted
[02:01] <filthpig> so, why won't ubuntu get me online wirelessly..?
[02:01] <ssn> the soundcard is recognized
[02:01] <ssn> but if i play something in mplayer or vlc, i cant hear anything
[02:01] <filthpig> DHCP, wep key is correct, wlan0 is up and finding the network.. but I cant connect.. it connects from winxp :/
[02:01] <filthpig> linksys usb wlan adapter
[02:02] <filthpig> any ideas?
[02:03] <IceLink> can you download from here? http://sourceforge.net/project/downloading.php?groupname=xampp&filename=xampp-linux-1.6.2.tar.gz&use_mirror=puzzle i can't >.<
[02:03] <__JW__> not sure why your wireless isn't working... but you definitely shouldn't use WEP with wireless... use WPA
[02:03] <aantn> __JW__: ha
[02:03] <aantn> __JW__: good luck setting that up with bcm43xx
[02:03] <filthpig> __JW__: the router is WEP only, and I do not live in a high risk zone ;)
[02:03] <Amaranth> __JW__: I'd like to see you break into my WEP :)
[02:04] <aantn> amaranth: its actually quite easy
[02:04] <Amaranth> aantn: I don't leak weak IVs
[02:04] <aantn> wait one second while I look for something
[02:04] <aantn> amaranth: I haven't done it myself, but its supposed to be quite simple
[02:04] <__JW__> aantn, you may not live in a high risk zone but any risk is too much for me
[02:05] <Amaranth> aantn: Everyone keeps repeating information from 2002
[02:05] <aantn> __JW__: if you can help me set up my wpa then I'd try
[02:05] <aantn> right now I just plugin by ethernet
[02:05] <Amaranth> aantn: Since then hardware has gotten better and you don't get weak IVs nearly as easily
[02:05] <__JW__> i keep mine off unless im using it for something specifically
[02:06] <__JW__> usually a firmware upgrade impliments the new wireless standards
[02:06] <Amaranth> aantn: A guy sniffed a 3 day conference that had a WEP setup (and it was a big conference) and only got 3 weak IVs
[02:06] <Amaranth> you need like 200,000 to get ever started on breaking the password
[02:06] <aantn> you ever hear of kismac?
[02:06] <Amaranth> aantn: Dude
[02:07] <stumc> alleyoopster: apt-cache show did not show any packages at all. any other ideas ?
[02:07] <Amaranth> aantn: I don't care how fancy your sniffing tool is, if I don't leak weak IVs you can't use them to break the password
[02:07] <aantn> 1 sec
[02:07] <filthpig> __JW__: could you help me check out some stuff concerning my network settings and maybe detect the problem? I've tried everything I can think of, but my knowledge of networking (and esp. linuxbased) isn't that great :/
[02:08] <IceLink> does anybody know where i might find my firefox >.<
[02:08] <filthpig> oO
[02:08] <aantn> application->internet->firefox?
[02:08] <filthpig> heh
[02:08] <IceLink> i mean in the file sys
[02:08] <IceLink> i've got two firefoxes
[02:08] <KuDeTa> hiya everyone
[02:09] <KuDeTa> i have a proftpd setup
[02:09] <IceLink> and i want to delete one and put the other there instead
[02:09] <KuDeTa> its configured correctly i thik
[02:09] <KuDeTa> and started
[02:09] <__JW__> filthpig: im very new to the linux operating system. setting up your router would be easy enough but as for the linux settings themself, i have yet to even mess with it on my end for wireless
[02:09] <kakado> IceLink: type which firefox
[02:09] <KuDeTa> but when i try to connect i get connection refused
[02:09] <bionoid> !enter | kudeta
[02:09] <ubotu> kudeta: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[02:09] <IceLink> 2.0.0.1
[02:09] <KuDeTa> sry
[02:09] <IceLink> i wanna find this one
[02:09] <filthpig> __JW__: The router is dhcp and working
[02:10] <filthpig> (I'm using it right now from my laptop, using PCLOS)
[02:10] <KuDeTa> ok, i have proftpd setup (im on drapper server) with a guide. its al configured correctly i think, and i started it, but i still can't connect to it
[02:10] <filthpig> so the problem is with ubuntu
[02:10] <Amaranth> IceLink: System->Preferences->Main Menu
[02:10] <filthpig> perhaps the wlan0 driver
[02:11] <Amaranth> IceLink: instead of deleting the system's firefox and breaking your desktop just point the firefox menu item to your new install
[02:11] <__JW__> perhaps... did you check your wlan0 settings to make sure its set to assign an ip via dhcp?
[02:11] <linux_probe> proftpd by default uses port 21 and ports 1025 to 65535 for passive connections
[02:11] <bionoid> KuDeTa: Can't connect to it - using an ftp client or attempting a tcp connection to port 21? ie if you can't get response on telnet, it most likely didn't start for whatever reason
[02:11] <IceLink> Amaranth, i don'z know how to do that
[02:11] <raf256> hello
[02:11] <raf256> is ubuntu useless for any real job?
[02:11] <filthpig> __JW__: yep.. probably about a thousand times :/
[02:11] <bobsomebody> hey, i know syslogd starts on ubuntu by default, but how can i throw the -r switch to it at start up without a shell script or something like that?
[02:11] <raf256> it fails to boot on a pc (7.04 desktop x86)
[02:11] <Amaranth> IceLink: Using System->Preferences->Main Menu
[02:11] <bionoid> KuDeTa: Is it on LAN or is the server connected to the internet?
[02:11] <raf256> doesnt see sata
[02:11] <stefg> !boot raf256
[02:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about boot raf256 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:11] <aantn> amaranth: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/low/technology/6595703.stm
[02:11] <Amaranth> bobsomebody: edit the init.d script that starts it
[02:12] <stefg> !boot | raf256
[02:12] <ubotu> raf256: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto
[02:12] <aantn> proof
[02:12] <shukran5> AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
[02:12] <aantn> and some videos how to: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1021256519470427962&q=hacking
[02:12] <KuDeTa> bionoid: its a remote server connected to the internet with no firewall
[02:12] <ccooke> raf256: what are you trying to boot it on?
[02:12] <aantn> http://www.shawnhogan.com/2006/08/how-to-crack-128-bit-wireless-networks.html
[02:12] <filthpig> Ah, when I try to ping the router from terminal I get "sendmsg: Operation not permitted"
[02:12] <ccooke> raf256: it may be that your system has a new SATA controller Ubuntu doesn't know about yet
[02:12] <Amaranth> aantn: Their technique still requires weak IVs to be leaked to them
[02:12] <Amaranth> aantn: let
[02:12] <aantn> http://docs.lucidinteractive.ca/index.php/Cracking_WEP_and_WPA_Wireless_Networks
[02:13] <__JW__> filthpig: i would do some test's with my wireless lappy, but right now it keeps shutting off when it starts to get hot (either a fan problem or a memory problem) and that is the only system I have that is wireless enabled. my other two desktops are wired
[02:13] <ccooke> raf256: or it may be that an option on an existing controller will do the job
[02:13] <Amaranth> aantn: let's go to #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:13] <aantn> two minutes?
[02:13] <bobsomebody> Amaranth, i tried that earlier and it didnt work
[02:13] <bionoid> KuDeTa: Ok, first things first, ssh to the server and type: telnet localhost 21   - if that gives you "connection refused" immediately, your proftpd is not running. If it connects but no response, you might want to verify that DNS is configured properly
[02:13] <aantn> Amaranth: I would... but I'm actually supposed to be working on a commercial php project
[02:13] <shukran5> hello.  i have started to install Feisty Fawn.  not a great user but trying to get into it.  Now the install has hung at 82%.  Should I reboot?
[02:13] <bobsomebody> Amaranth, let me open the file,
[02:13] <Amaranth> aantn: Then stop arguing with me about it, we're interrupting the channel
[02:14] <shukran5> then i retried and it stuck again at 82%
[02:14] <aantn> amaranth: fine
[02:14] <shukran5> now i have partitioon issues
[02:14] <KuDeTa> bionoid: its drops immediately
[02:14] <Amaranth> aantn: Unless you've written one of those tools to break into a WEP network you don't have room to talk :)
[02:14] <KuDeTa> no connection
[02:14] <KuDeTa> bionoid: what should i do?
[02:14] <bionoid> KuDeTa: Ok, then type: ps auxww|grep proftp   - see if the process is up and running
[02:15] <KuDeTa> yup
[02:15] <KuDeTa> bionoid: root     18990  0.0  0.1   2876   796 pts/0    S+   14:15   0:00 grep proftp
[02:15] <bionoid> KuDeTa: Exactly, so its not running. (That process is merely the "grep" you just executed, _not_ the actual server)
[02:15] <stefg> !verify | shukran5
[02:15] <ubotu> shukran5: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows
[02:16] <bionoid> KuDeTa: Try /etc/init.d/proftpd start
[02:16] <KuDeTa> ohh
[02:16] <IceLink> thanks, i've got my firefox
[02:16] <KuDeTa> bionoid: done
[02:16] <KuDeTa> still no connection
[02:17] <aliasxerog> i need help with widescreen
[02:17] <Wicketman> Is this the right channel to ask hardware specific questions ?
[02:17] <bionoid> KuDeTa: So its a configuration problem, then. I don't have proftpd on my boxes so cant test it - but usually you will find some clues by doing: tail -n 20 /var/log/messages
[02:17] <bionoid> KuDeTa: Also check /var/log/ directory and see if it has some specific proftpd logs (ie a directory or file(s) named proftpd*)
[02:17] <stefg> Wicketman: only if they relate to ubuntu compatibility
[02:17] <Surkow> @kudeta - I use proftpd, what is your problem?
[02:17] <ralph> AMD64 7.04 install lock-ups at 5%.  Bug #123732 raised.  No feedback yet.  Keen to make further attempts.  Would like a pointer as to what to try or what data to gather.  Thanks.
[02:18] <KuDeTa> surkow: i start the server, but i can't connect
[02:18] <shukran5> !verify
[02:18] <ubotu> To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows
[02:18] <KuDeTa> bionoid:thanks very much
[02:18] <Surkow> you forwarded active and passive ports in your router KuDeTa ?
[02:18] <filthpig> yaaargh
[02:18] <KuDeTa> surkow: its no behind a router
[02:19] <KuDeTa> not*
[02:19] <Surkow> hmm
[02:19] <bionoid> Surkow: He cant connect from localhost, I bet it's a configuration error. Is there a way to dry-run startup and report errors in configuration with proftpd?
[02:19] <Surkow> what happens when you type...ah
[02:19] <Surkow> I just wanted to suggest it bionoid
[02:19] <Surkow> maybe KuDeTa should install gproftpd
[02:19] <KuDeTa> no gui
[02:19] <KuDeTa> :S
[02:20] <KuDeTa> its a remote server
[02:20] <Surkow> it's a gui with information just like in the command line
[02:20] <Surkow> ah
[02:20] <KuDeTa> ah ok
[02:20] <__JW__> My NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver is located in the 'Restricted Drivers' window under 'System->Administration->Restricted Drivers'. I have it activated so I can get the appropriate screen resolution but will this cause any issues? If it does, is there a replacement driver for it that is supported by Ubuntu? Otherwise, the highest resolution I can get is 800x600 which really sucks.
[02:20] <KuDeTa> oh well no
[02:20] <Wicketman> I use a tablet at 1024x768 is there an easy way to get a higher resolution on an external monitor ?
[02:20] <Surkow> well...then that won't work.
[02:20] <dalesone> back :P
[02:20] <xenex> Does anyone know why firestarter is giving me this error? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28475/
[02:20] <dalesone> updates done, driver enabled :D
[02:20] <Dark> hello
[02:20] <KuDeTa> surkow: mind if i pm? its pretty busy in here
[02:21] <dalesone> does the OS support widescreen res ? 1440 x 900?
[02:21] <bionoid> xenex: type "xhost +" in a terminal and try again
[02:21] <Surkow> sure KuDeTa
[02:21] <Dark> can anyone tell me how to remove the sda1 icon from the desktop?
[02:21] <Surkow> @__JW__ - you can manually change the driver back if anything goes wrong
[02:21] <Wicketman> dalesone : it does
[02:22] <Dark> can anyone tell me how to remove the sda1 icon from the desktop?
[02:22] <__JW__> true... i just didn't know if it would screw with my ubuntu installation to the point of a necessary re-installation
[02:22] <fisons_> Dark, umount sda1
[02:22] <Surkow> @dark - gconf-editor and go to nautilus options
[02:22] <Dark> but i need it mounted
[02:22] <jrib> Dark: do you want to get rid of all mounted stuff on your desktop or just sda1?
[02:22] <Dark> i just dont need the icon
[02:23] <Dark> i like seeing the mounted cd, but not the mounted sda1
[02:23] <jrib> Dark: don't mount sda1 to /media
[02:23] <Dark> how can i change it?
[02:23] <shukran5> i had used the verify command at the start of the disk.  it says it is scanning the mirror.  i wonder did it
[02:23] <shukran5> lose connection to the mirror
[02:23] <JimQode> I installed ubuntu to a friend. He's having a problem with network not starting connected on bootup. He needs to connect every time he boots. What may be the problem?
[02:23] <fisons_> Dark, edit /etc/fstab
[02:23] <xenex> bionoid, thanks :)
[02:23] <Dark> k i will look
[02:24] <jrib> !fstab > Dark (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:24] <fisons_> !fstab
[02:24] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[02:24] <Dark> thanks
[02:25] <Dark> so anything under /media is show on desktop?
[02:25] <stefg> JimQode: if he doesn't need network-manager i'd recommand to uninstall that, along with avahi-daemon.
[02:25] <jrib> Dark: yes, I think so.  Unless you disable all of those icons in gconf
[02:25] <JimQode> stefg, He kind of is used to them. Why should it behave this way?
[02:26] <Dark> this is the line
[02:26] <Dark> UUID=CA9C48AB9C4893BB /media/sda1     ntfs    defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0       1
[02:26] <Dark> i just put /mnt/win in place of /media/sda1
[02:26] <fisons_> Dark, sounds good
[02:26] <Dark> will that be ok?
[02:26] <Dark> or do i need to unmount before i do anything?
[02:26] <jrib> Dark: yes, just create /mnt/win
[02:26] <dalesone> wow   i can automaticly see my ntfs partition,   i take it all my installed games on there are useless as .exe files dont work on linux
[02:26] <stefg> JimQode: network manager and avahi-daemon are both quite buggy, and known to sometimes break working connections
[02:27] <Dark> so i will jsut change it without unmounting
[02:27] <Dark> kk
[02:27] <jrib> Dark: you need to remount it for the cahnges to take affect
[02:27] <JimQode> stefg, will it break ubuntu network setting manager?
[02:27] <fisons_> Dark, maybe you should umount it before
[02:27] <Dark> ok i will unmount it
[02:27] <Dark> i can do it from the desktop, right/
[02:27] <fisons_> Dark, umount before editing fstab, then "mount /mnt/win"
[02:28] <stefg> JimQode: no, indeed it will allow network settings to function again the good old fashioned way (TM)
[02:28] <JimQode> stefg, oh ok then :) i'll try that
[02:30] <Skaag> can I somehow tell openoffice that comes with my ubuntu to anti-alias the lines in drawings I make?
[02:30] <Skaag> is this at all related to the operating system, or is it a thing specific to openoffice alone?
[02:31] <Dark> it worked great
[02:31] <Dark> only one problem
[02:31] <dalesone> hey, where do i find xor.conf ?  i need to modify it so i can run 1440x900 reso
[02:31] <filthpig>  /j #openoffice
[02:31] <filthpig> hm
[02:31] <Dark> if i go to places, computer, i cant see the win partition
[02:31] <stefg> Skaag: this is related to openoffice interacting with xorg. so it's partly ubuntu, partly openoffice related
[02:31] <flyinprogramer> hey guys, how do you install emerald in ubuntu ?

[02:32] <ubotu> flyinprogramer: beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[02:32] <Dark> is there a way to add a device to computer?
[02:32] <stefg> plug it in?
[02:32] <jrib> Dark: add a bookmark in nautilus
[02:32] <Dark> not exactly what i want
[02:32] <jrib> !fixres > dalesone (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:33] <jrib> Dark: that will add "win" to places
[02:33] <Dark> jrib: if i go to places, computer i used to see the win partition, but i changed the mount position, now i cant see it anymore
[02:33] <fisons_> !fixres

[02:33] <dalesone> thanks jrib
[02:34] <KuDeTa> anybody very experienced with proftpd please? i could really do with some help. i can't connect even thoough there is no router
[02:34] <stefg> Dark: only things mounted in /media get represented in the Computer view
[02:34] <Dark> stefg: no way to fix that?
[02:34] <salvo>  italianoo questo canale?
[02:34] <jrib> !it | salvo
[02:34] <ubotu> salvo: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[02:34] <stefg> Dark: there's nothing to fix, it's a design decision
[02:35] <Dark> ok
[02:35] <Dark> so not bypassable?
[02:35] <user_> 3malang
[02:35] <aboyousif> what is the package that hold "ddcprobe" ?
[02:35] <user_> #malang
[02:35] <jrib> !find ddcprobe
[02:35] <ubotu> File ddcprobe found in xresprobe
[02:35] <aboyousif> jrib, thanks
[02:35] <salvo> tank you
[02:35] <stefg> Dark: so if you want it to appear in Computer, you'll have to mount it to /media/win or something alike
[02:35] <jrib> aboyousif: you can use packages.ubuntu.com or apt-file locally too
[02:36] <tommy_> can someone help, i get that "busybox" error
[02:36] <`4aFkA`> I need a program for ubuntu to write JavaScript programs and applets.. but it needs to have debuger!!??
[02:36] <aboyousif> jrib, the search on packages didn't find it
[02:36] <jrib> aboyousif: http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?word=ddcprobe&searchmode=searchfiles&case=insensitive&version=feisty&arch=i386
[02:36] <Dark> stefg: but if i do so i will get it on the desktop aswell
[02:36] <jrib> aboyousif: you need to "search contents of packages" at the bottom
[02:36] <stefg> tommy_: so the box doesn't boot? Do get somthing like rootfs not found?
[02:37] <aboyousif> jrib, aha .. thanks
[02:37] <Skaag> stefg: sorry about the delayed response, yes, I just found a bug report for this with many votes (more then 130) on the openoffice feature request list, so it is being taken care of slowly. Until then I export to PDF and it looks just great when in PDF format.
[02:37] <`4aFkA`> I need a program for ubuntu to write JavaScript programs and applets.. but it needs to have debuger!!??
[02:37] <stefg> Dark: if you enable 'show volumes on desktop' in Gnome, yes. That's the way gnome is designed
[02:38] <Dark> ah
[02:38] <Dark> and where can i disable that?
[02:38] <erUSUL> `4aFkA`: install firefox with venkman http://www.mozilla.org/projects/venkman/ ('sudo apt-get install mozilla-venkman')
[02:38] <erUSUL> `4aFkA`: for editting just choose and editor...
[02:38] <`4aFkA`> erUSUL thnx!
[02:39] <tommy_> stefg: i get this "tty:job control turned off" or something like that, then the live cd (feisty) just freezes
[02:39] <jrib> !icons > Dark (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:39] <stefg> Dark: alt-f2, enter gconf-editor, goto apps-nautilus-desktop, uncheck volumes_visible
[02:40] <Dark> stefg: but doing so i wont see cd/dvd or floppy either
[02:40] <tommy_> I get this error on feisty live cd ""Busyboy v1.1.3 (Debian 1:1.1.3-3ubuntu2) Built in shell (ash)
[02:41] <tommy_> bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off" any ideas how to fix it?
[02:41] <stefg> tommy_: you can try to boot with acpi-off, but looks like you have to wait for a working kernel
[02:42] <stefg> Dark: that is the way gnome is designed
[02:42] <Dark> ok
[02:42] <Omnius> i have downloaded FBreader and installed it, i have created a launcher for it which is currently on my quick start bar,  how do i put it in the Applications menu?
[02:42] <stefg> once again
[02:42] <tommy_> stefg: i was afraid you'd say that, i though that kernel(2.6.20) can just never work on my computer. Sad thing is, gutsy does the same thing so i might be waiting a long time.
[02:42] <Dark> in kde i could do it i thing....choose wat device to show on desktop
[02:43] <stefg> tommy_: or get a second hand box with a compatible chipset to have fun with that while you wait... P4's got cheap on ebay
[02:45] <Dark> well, i'm set with ubuntu
[02:45] <Dark> i wanted to thanks you all for support
[02:45] <fuzzy_logic> hi peeps
[02:45] <Omnius> how do i put stuff in the Applications menu?
[02:45] <Dark> really helpful community
[02:45] <tommy_> stefg: im scared because all distros are moving to 2.6.20+, do you think they will fix my problem. Or will i be left using old version distros forever.
[02:45] <stefg> tommy_: so try debian etch... it's running 2.6.18 iirc, and spares all the fancy experimantal upstart and libata stuff out
[02:45] <Dark> ciao ciao
[02:45] <dalesone> hmmm
[02:46] <dalesone> is there a way to make you xorg.conf file not Read only?
[02:46] <dalesone> i need to edit it but cant save changes over the old stuff
[02:46] <gordonjcp> dalesone: it isn't read only
[02:46] <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.
[02:46] <gordonjcp> dalesone: you're doing it wrong ;-)
[02:46] <dalesone> it wont let me change it
[02:46] <gordonjcp> !sudo > dalesone
[02:46] <gordonjcp> !sudo | dalesone
[02:46] <ubotu> dalesone: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[02:46] <stefg> tommy_: and what i read the kernel hackers are aware that 2.6.20 and .21 were substandard... check back when gutsy is released, will run 2.6.22 then
[02:47] <tommy_> stefg: so theres still hope. :) thanks
[02:47] <dalesone> thanx
[02:47] <kuja> I'm trying to compile a snapshot of gtkpod in Ubuntu with MP4/AAC support, but the configure script keeps telling me that it will not build with MP4/AAC support... I have mpeg4ip installed... and symlinked all of its shared objects from /usr/local/lib into /usr/lib as well, just in case.
[02:47] <dalesone> more reading *yay*
[02:47] <dalesone> haha
[02:47] <kuja> The reason I am trying to compile gtkpod is because in a version not yet packaged in the Ubuntu repository there is a feature that I want.
[02:48] <stefg> !build
[02:48] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[02:49] <fackamato> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2960847#post2960847
[02:49] <IceLink> if i chmod a dir and use -R, will all files included be like the dir?
[02:49] <kuja> Well, I know how to compile software :)
[02:50] <jrib> IceLink: yes, but that's rarely needed and if you do it on a system directory, you will likely end up with a broken box
[02:50] <madduck> IceLink: yes, unless you use X
[02:50] <kuja> I guess a more well-formed question would be:  Has anyone ever compiled a gtkpod snapshot with mp4/aac support?
[02:50] <IceLink> okay thanks, it's just an imagine dir
[02:50] <IceLink> *image
[02:51] <Omnius> how do i add stuff to the applications menu?
[02:51] <kuja> Maybe the version of mpeg4ip I compiled isn't compatible with the version of gtkpod I am trying to configure, or something else... I've no idea :)
[02:52] <IceLink> how is the command to change a group
[02:52] <kuja> IceLink: Change group of a file?
[02:52] <IceLink> yeah kuja
[02:52] <kuja> man chown
[02:52] <IceLink> i thought chown was the owner...
[02:52] <kuja> That will allow you to change user and/or group of a file or directory.
[02:53] <kuja> IceLink: You can use chown to change the group as well.
[02:53] <IceLink> how do i quit a manpage >.<
[02:53] <dalesone> so witht he sudo commant, i go to my terminal and just type !sudo
[02:53] <kuja> IceLink: q
[02:53] <dalesone> and it asks for a pw? and then its done
[02:53] <stefg> kuja: are you sure you have all build-deps installed?
[02:54] <kuja> stefg: I manually downloaded every component from the respective websites and compiled them myself.
[02:54] <kuja> stefg: libgpod, mpeg4ip and gtkpod have all been compiled by hand.
[02:54] <Smotang> How do I find my mac address?
[02:55] <neil_feisty> Smotang, ifconfig eth0
[02:55] <Omnius> System->Preferences->Main menu
[02:55] <stefg> kuja: usually you need a bunch of *-dev packages on the build system. sudo apt-get build-dep gtkpod ?
[02:55] <Omnius> cheers
[02:55] <IceLink> thanks kuja, got it
[02:55] <kuja> stefg: Basically, I'm trying to get working in gtkpod what the gtkpod-aac package does for Ubuntu's gtkpod package.
[02:55] <kuja> stefg: I'll try that.
[02:56] <Smotang> I tried ifconfig but did not see the mac addr, thanks I see it now. I feel newbie :)
[02:56] <kuja> stefg: Nope, it just finishes.. that means all the dependencies have been built, right?
[02:56] <Smotang> 00:0C:6E:96:00:BD
[02:56] <stefg> kuja: yup
[02:56] <Smotang> eek
[02:56] <Smotang> wrong place sorri
[02:56] <kuja> stefg: Currently for gnomevfs, libcurl and HAL support in gtkpod, I've downloaded the *-dev packages which the configure script thankfully recognizes just fine.
[02:57] <kuja> The problem is mp4v2 support.
[02:57] <kuja> I obviously have the correct package AND my OWN compiled version of it installed, yet it fails to use neither.
[02:57] <mobal> hello pls help i cannot load the cpufreq module

[02:58] <IceLink> hm, is it possible to grow the bottom panel of gnome? it's 1 line high now
[02:58] <kuja> mobal: be patient.. you shouldn't repeat.  that's very rude.  someone should be able to help you if they know the answer.
[02:59] <hccmb> weather applet, how to i set url?
[02:59] <hccmb> gdesklets
[02:59] <kuja> IceLink: By "grow" do you mean by expanding the height?
[02:59] <hccmb> any tip would be welcome
[02:59] <IceLink> yes kuja
[02:59] <gman993> hi all
[02:59] <kuja> IceLink: Right click on the panel and go to "Properties"
[03:00] <kuja> You should be able to adjust a field called "Size" which will enlarge the height of the panel.
[03:00] <cdealer> Hi! ... I set LOCALDEV = TRUE , installed and loaded the fuse module, installed the ltspfs, added the user to the fuse group ... what more I need to make my local dev available to the clients?
[03:00] <cdealer> I asked on ltsp channel but no answer yet... so Im trying here =D
[03:01] <mobal> and i need some info how can i change the bash encod from utf-8 to iso-8859-2
[03:01] <dalesone> sorry to ask again, but im having issues editing my xorg.conf file,  im trying to follow the help but excessive use of MS windows has made me stupid
[03:01] <IceLink> there is min and max size in pixel, kuja (which doesn't work)
[03:01] <kuja> IceLink: As far as I know, the "Size" field is the only way to adjust the panel's size.
[03:02] <kuja> (other than a technicality method, by going through gconf and editing the size value from there, but it's still the same thing)
[03:02] <IceLink> kuja, that's the other panel, i mean the one where are all tasks
[03:02] <gman993> im new to irc but need help with usb boot
[03:02] <ukubuntu> I am unable to play any video in vlc or mplayer, including ogg theora. Music is fin mp3 and ogg vorbis. when the video file starts to play the player stops or closes itself pretty instantly. compiz and beryl not running at the time.
[03:02] <ukubuntu> As an addition it seems when I use the firefox media extension it give me the error Could not resolve name for AF_INET6:and url If that helps
[03:02] <kuja> Task bar?
[03:02] <dalesone> so to edit the xorg.conf file i type this command into the terminal????   sudo cp /etc/x11/xorg.conf ?
[03:02] <IceLink> kuja i'e got it now, sorry
[03:02] <TheWheat> hey is there anyway to enable ctrl+tab as a shortcut in gnome-terminal?
[03:03] <IceLink> kuja: but the tasks are growing, too, i want them to be in 2 rows if possible
[03:03] <stefg> mobal: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/reference/ch-tune.en.html#s-l10n
[03:03] <kuja> IceLink: Hm, I don't know if that's possible.. sorry.
[03:04] <kuja> I know it is very easily possible in KDE, by expanding the panel's height that feature is automatic.
[03:04] <IceLink> will ask in #gnome
[03:04] <mobal> dalesone: to edit the xorg.conf if you are in X type in the terminal: sudo gedit /etx/xorg.xonf
[03:04] <gman993> can anyone help boot ubuntu off usb drive in enclosure?
[03:04] <kuja> IceLink: There's a IRC network for GNOME related questions.. I think it's irc.gnome.org... you might get a better response from there.
[03:04] <hylje> mobal: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:04] <kuja> gman993: I've booted Ubuntu from a USB drive before
[03:04] <IceLink> kuja: thanks for all
[03:05] <stefg> dalesone: hold on, before you're left with nothing but a console.... what are you trying?

[03:11] <shukran5> it is dhcp
[03:11] <shukran5> and connected to internet
[03:11] <|_ocke> well ... of course no os if youre trying to boot from it
[03:11] <stefg> gman993: so you are trying to boot from an empty harddrive.... this will naturally fail
[03:11] <erUSUL> mathew-ef: mostly yes
[03:11] <shukran5> because i can do everything when i use the os off the disk
[03:11] <gman993> no i have ubuntu on drive
[03:11] <tannerld> http://digg.com/linux_unix/TimeVault_Going_back_in_time_in_Ubuntu
[03:12] <gman993> but puter says " no operating system found"
[03:12] <stefg> gman993: how did you install it to that drive?
[03:12] <gman993> from cd
[03:12] <JimQode> I lost my backbuffer and I don't remember who advised me to remove network-manager and avahi-daemon but Thanks! It worked!
[03:13] <IceLink> kuja; you helped me a lot since they could help me ;)
[03:13] <stefg> ah... ok, now i get the picture. is there an internal drive in the box?
[03:13] <stefg> gman993: ^^^
[03:13] <dalesone> thanks guys, got my reso sorted now :D
[03:13] <gman993> yea
[03:13] <gman993> i have another usb and it will boot
[03:13] <gman993> but drive in enclosure wll not boot
[03:14] <stefg> gman993: what happens if you do /not/ boot with the usb plugged in. get a 'grub error 17' ?
[03:15] <gman993> grub installed on usb drive mbr
[03:15] <stefg> gman993: what happens if you boot with the usb /not/ plugged in.
[03:15] <gman993> not on internal drive
[03:15] <gman993> boot usb "no operating system found"
[03:15] <gman993> no grub error
[03:15] <stefg> gman993: so there's win on the internal disk?
[03:16] <gman993> yes wndows
[03:16] <OldPink> Hi all
[03:16] <stefg> gman993: and you are able to boot that?
[03:16] <gman993> yes
[03:17] <stefg> gman993: then grub is probably not installed to the mbr of your usb-disk
[03:17] <porculete> hello everybody i'm having some problem with nvidia drivers...anyone can help?
[03:18] <gman993> i have reinstalled grub on usb and the grub frezes at grub

[03:21] <Th30z> hi, someone have tried to install ubuntu on intel core 2 duo Santa Rosa (T7300, T7500)?
[03:22] <hamedv90> all, hi
[03:22] <stefg> gman993: my theory is that the bios changes the device order during boot. so although the external disk looks like , say, /dev/sdc , it gets handled as fake  /dev/sda before boot to allow to be booted from.
[03:23] <gman993> could be do you know a fix
[03:23] <gman993> ?
[03:24] <genii> Th30z: Core2 duo e6300/6400 worked fine for me. Haven't tried t7300/7500
[03:24] <insane_alien> does anyone know how to speed up FTP transfers over a LAN? i'm only getting 1.3MB/s. it used to run at 2.5MB/s
[03:25] <OldPink> insane_alien, did you change clients? What made it slow down? Tried disabling ipv6?
[03:25] <stefg> !grub | gman993
[03:25] <ubotu> gman993: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[03:25] <gman993> yea
[03:26] <insane_alien> i just reinstalled because i made a huge mistake and borked my install
[03:26] <insane_alien> ipv6 is disabled
[03:26] <insane_alien> and i'm using the same proftpd config file
[03:26] <OldPink> insane_alien, which client?
[03:26] <gman993> can't boot cd go to usb drive

[03:27] <m1r> i am trying to install mysql-server but when it ask me for pass i get some errors
[03:27] <gman993> same message "no operating system found"
[03:27] <insane_alien> its the exact same setup
[03:27] <insane_alien> well, it should be.
[03:27] <gman993> i had window before ubuntu
[03:27] <gman993> windows
[03:27] <insane_alien> obviously something has changed
[03:28] <stefg> gman993: can you verify taht there is actaully something on that harddisk?
[03:28] <porculete> anyone can help me?nvidia drivers problem X wont start!
[03:29] <Toma-> Can the installer desktop disk safely resize NTFS?
[03:29] <stefg> gman993: so unplug the usb, boot to the Live CD environment and plug the usb in after that.
[03:30] <insane_alien> toma, yes. i done it 40 minutes ago
[03:30] <gman993> i made exact copy of working usb drive on non-working usb did dd-copy still did not work
[03:30] <Juhaz> Toma-, it should be reasonably safe, but nothing ever is hundred percent.
[03:30] <boerdi> can someone help me configure two keyboards in ubuntu ? one usb dvorak and one ps2 qwerty
[03:30] <JimQode> Toma-, It failed to do so yesterday for me. But it didn't mess up the partition it just hanged.
[03:30] <stefg> gman993: that obviously didn't work
[03:31] <gman993> why not obvious to me
[03:31] <espenel> ??
[03:31] <Toma-> Right thanks guys. So sad I even have to deal with NTFS :( For shame.
[03:32] <stefg> gman993: partition table info on CHS is different on small or big drives....
[03:32] <pc2> When I add an nfs share to my fstab it doesn't mount automatically on boot .... but when i mount it manually it does mount .. what could be wrong ?!
[03:32] <bruno_> silvana
[03:33] <gman993> found  guide on how to do this on ubuntu wiki
[03:33] <JimQode> pc2, try adding auto to flags on your fstab
[03:34] <pc2> JimQode: auot instead of nfs ?
[03:34] <pc2> auto*
[03:34] <stefg> gman993: whatever you tried, for one reason or another it did not work out. this drive has probably no useful info on it. so verify first that there is actually something on that drive#
[03:34] <JimQode> pc2, nope to the flags sections. that is the rightmost section before 0 0
[03:34] <bronze> Iki pi
[03:34] <pc2> JimQode: 192.168.1.10:/srv/www/htdocs/ /home/pc2/Desktop/share nfs rw,hard,intr,auto 0 0
[03:35] <pc2> JimQode: is this correct ?
[03:35] <IceLink> mustn't chmod 600 allow the owner to read and write?
[03:35] <bronze> lol
[03:35] <gman993> yes everything is on drive
[03:35] <genii> pc2 auto should work, you may also like to put put option user so regular users can mount it as well
[03:35] <gman993> i think maybe something with drive enclosure?
[03:35] <stefg> gman993: so unplug the usb, boot to the Live CD environment and plug the usb in after that.
[03:36] <pc2> genii: thanks
[03:36] <gman993> do you mean use cd to boot usb
[03:36] <stefg> gman993: i mean to look at the drive from a known to work linux system
[03:36] <gman993> have done that
[03:37] <gman993> everything looks good
[03:37] <JimQode> pc2 looks right to me
[03:38] <stefg> gman993: define 'looks good'
[03:38] <JimQode> IceLink, it should
[03:38] <gman993> file system is there
[03:39] <olskolirc> what is the command line in ubuntu to run my alsaconf wizard

[03:39] <stefg> gman993: have you looked at the partition table with fdisk -l ?
[03:39] <olskolirc> i have no sound
[03:39] <gman993> yes
[03:39] <IceLink> is it necessary to put "executable" on images @ JimQode
[03:39] <gordonjcp> IceLink: ?
[03:39] <stefg> gman993: how did you install grub to the new disk?
[03:39] <IceLink> gordonjcp: hm?
[03:40] <gordonjcp> IceLink: are you trying to run an image?
[03:40] <gman993> with installer
[03:40] <gman993> on cd
[03:40] <JimQode> IceLink, what kind of image? as in a picture? then no
[03:40] <stefg> gman993: the CD installer is unable to put grub anywhere else than hd0
[03:40] <gman993> havd done guided and manual
[03:40] <olskolirc> what is the command line in ubuntu to run my alsaconf wizard

[03:42] <gman993> that's why im here

[03:43] <IceLink> gordonjcp: this is what i thought, doesn't matter
[03:43] <gman993> wanted larger drive
[03:43] <stefg> gman993: aside from technical issues it's the attitude which will not get you to a solution. you are not following suggestions, only say i've done that right....
[03:43] <gman993> do not have attitude
[03:43] <gman993> just tell you what i have done
[03:44] <stefg> gman993: no, ju make assumptions on waht you think you have done

[03:44] <stefg> gman993: so unplug the usb, boot to the Live CD environment and plug the usb in after that.
[03:44] <mobal> i resolved my cpu scaling problem
[03:45] <mobal> if you use ubuntu 7.04 and intel centrino processor (requires 2.6.10 kernel but in 7.04 it is the kernel) only load the p4-clockmod module and its work!
[03:45] <valdas> hey guys, how do i need to install Mac OS look like taskbar on ubuntu?:)
[03:46] <gman993> do you want me to do that now
[03:46] <stefg> yes, because it's teh only way to obtain further system info
[03:46] <gman993> ok
[03:46] <gman993> was not getting that
[03:47] <gman993> on the computer in windows now
[03:47] <gman993> standby will use second laptop
[03:47] <tonyo> my mom's computer is quite slow. is it possible to shift from ubuntu feisty to xubuntu feisty rather quickly and painlessly? how do i got about it?
[03:48] <m1r> tonyo : apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[03:48] <gman993> do not have ubuntu on disk now formated ntfs to run chkdsk
[03:48] <gman993> thought mbr was bad
[03:49] <gman993> i thought maybe some know issue with usb enclosure
[03:50] <fackamato> in /etc/apt/preferences I have Package: mplayer \n Pin: release a=local\n Pin-Priority: 7000, but synaptic still wants to 'update' mplayer, why is that? (i've run apt'get update also)
[03:51] <kuja> if test -z "$ac_lib"; then  <-- what does this line of sh do?
[03:51] <VSpike> could someone do me a favour and test my socks5 server at 81.174.243.45 port 8080 and make sure it requires authentication?
[03:51] <stefg> gman993: you can install to an external usb-drive, but the grub installation will overwrite the wrong mbr (the on on the internal disk). you will have to manually put grub into the mbr of the external disk, and restore win's mbr on the internal disk after
[03:51] <olskolirc> ?
[03:51] <VSpike> I don't want to have an open proxy
[03:51] <olskolirc> i lost sound in my fiesty fawn.  i use alsa.  how do i get it back?
[03:52] <gman993> took internal drive out before install
[03:52] <VSpike> olskolirc: have you tried alsamix ?
[03:52] <olskolirc> no
[03:52] <olskolirc> lll try it thanks
[03:52] <gman993> made that mistake on first install
[03:52] <VSpike> olskolirc: you may just have a muted channel
[03:52] <gman993> had to repair mbr for windows
[03:52] <stefg> gman993: then all the device names in the /etc/fstab of the installed system are probably wrong
[03:53] <VSpike> olskolirc: go in there and unmute everything and turn up to max :)
[03:53] <gman993> could be that is the way istalled on working usb boot drive
[03:53] <olskolirc> nothing muted
[03:54] <gman993> what did you want to  check if could boot cd?
[03:54] <tonyo> mlr, how do i remove ubuntu/gnome desktop?
[03:55] <gman993> i have trying to get this to work about 2 weeks now
[03:55] <stefg> gman993: that  only makes sense if there's actually somthing to look at on the external drive. i want to check harddisk device naming and grubs numbering scheme, and manually put grub in the external mbr

[04:27] <OrionBerlin> stefg thanks
[04:27] <Mithun> did it
[04:28] <IdleOne> mumificiranipjet, you will need to enable the repositories first so follow that link ubotu just gave you
[04:28] <IdleOne> Im out
[04:28] <kakado> Mithun: guess something went wrong
[04:29] <creature> stefg: That's quite a useful link. I don't suppose there's a similar one for install mplayer, is there?
[04:29] <mumificiranipjet> yes, Idle, i'm  just looking at this
[04:29] <stefg> creature: mplayer is in the repos
[04:30] <Mithun> kakado: Is that all one needs to do for the boot menu i.e install ubuntu after windows ??
[04:30] <valdas> JimQode: what if i cant find on sypnatic manageR?:)
[04:30] <stefg> creature: sudo apt-get install mplayer
[04:30] <kakado> Mithun: yes
[04:30] <mumificiranipjet> so I just have to chek "Multiverse" and click reload and the sun-java will automaticly appear on syn?
[04:31] <JimQode> valdas, it may be in another package. that's why compiling from source is such a headache. you have to google it some :)
[04:32] <Mithun> Kakado: I have four partitions in a 160 gb drive, two ntfs partitions, one ext3 and one swap. So I install in ext 3 right?, I have another HDD with the Windows xp on it which is on SATA 0, my question is once I install ubuntu on ext3, would both the OS'es appear as a boot menu screen??
[04:32] <valdas> JimQode: i cant find anyt of those;)
[04:32] <creature> stefg: It's in the default repositories?
[04:33] <M_> anyone here tried to run CS:S on wine?

[04:33] <stefg> !repos
[04:33] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[04:34] <Nutubuntu> Mithun,  consider making a separate partition for /home so that if/when you reinstall you will not overwrite your data
[04:34] <aantn_> !sudo
[04:34] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[04:35] <Sp4rKy> can i remove the 'change user' button in the logout panel ?
[04:35] <JimQode> valdas, this might work, i haven't tried it. http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-351186.html
[04:35] <Mithun> Nutubuntu: Apart from the additional /home, everything is straight in what I said right??
[04:36] <Nutubuntu> Mithun - I came late to the conversation. I saw you asking about your partitions and whether you would have a boot prompt for your dual-boot configuration - you will if Windows is installed first; Linux is respectful ;)
[04:37] <Jack_Sparrow> ersul the fstab shows both swaps, how do I set which one to use or do I remove the entry I dont want?
[04:37] <Mithun> Nutubuntu: SUPERB !!! LINUX UBUNTU ROCKS!! So all I need is ext3 / for the ubuntu OS, swap for ubuntu again, and /home for additional dat right ?
[04:37] <Mithun> *data
[04:38] <rustalot> can I get a fileshredder that writes & then deletes over blank space on the fs?
[04:39] <Nutubuntu> Mithun, -- I'm a cautious person. If a backup of your existing installation can be made (that is, if you're installing onto anything but a new box, or one where you just don't care either way) - then add making a backup to your list ... otherwise, yes, as far as I can see. I am a n00b myself though. Grain of salt...
[04:39] <valdas> JimQode: yeah it works 4 me, thanks;)
[04:40] <TaintedTux> I need some help with abcde
[04:40] <stefg> rustalot: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=240856
[04:40] <TaintedTux> When I was using it on Arch I could just insert a cd and enter abcde -o flac in terminal and it would rip the entire disk
[04:41] <TaintedTux> on Ubuntu its telling me flac does not exist in my path and to enter the full path to the executable
[04:41] <Raiders32> what type of file shows up with black text and brown background in GNOME terminal?
[04:41] <Mithun> Nutubuntu: Uh oh, so you're saying there are chances of my NTFS partitions getting deleted??
[04:42] <stefg> rustalot: to cut it short. There is no such thing as safe file shredding, except making a backup, recreate the fs and restore file by file from time to time
[04:42] <Mithun> Nutubuntu: Backup and then install it is then, thank you for your help !
[04:43] <Rio79> im trying to get tvtime running, so i downloaded a driver.  just wondering if i did something wrong before i try the long, complicated method of installing it [http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28489/] 
[04:43] <Nutubuntu> Mithun, I'm cautious because I'm clumsy. User error is something I have first-hand experience with. A well-made powerful tool tends to do what you tell it to do ... and I've told mine to do things I wasn't happy about afterwards ... so yes, back up first
[04:43] <TaintedTux> Can anyone answer a quick question about abcde for me?
[04:43] <Nutubuntu> ohzie, he's gone ...
[04:43] <mumificiranipjet> yes I made it =)
[04:43] <rustalot> stefg: In this case, a friend was given an old laptop once used for business [read: sensitive data]  on the condition that he destroy all the data on it
[04:44] <valdas> JimQode: how to run it?

[04:44] <raf256> ubuntu fails to support sound

[04:44] <gkscal> .name gkscal
[04:45] <dalesone> anyone a pro on getting games to work with wine?
[04:45] <Toma-> raf256: sounds working out of the box here...?
[04:45] <kuja> stefg: got it to work finally... after 2 days :)
[04:45] <stefg> rustalot: boot a live-CD , run sudo dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/hda bs=512 , repeat that 3-5 times... even the NSA will be out of luck to recover something after that
[04:46] <stefg> rustalot: then you'll have to repartition the and reinstall of course
[04:47] <rustalot> stefg: what does that do?
[04:47] <Myrtti> write the whole disk full of random bytes
[04:47] <stefg> rustalot: overwrite the complete harddrive with random numbers
[04:49] <logreeval> I have Vmware player, but the internet connection says it is firewalled, i cant get connected?
[04:51] <rausb0> stefg: i'd give a larger bs= value to dd when doing that. it takes long enough with bs=10M...
[04:51] <redtea> how can i set up 3d
[04:51] <redtea> how can I set up 3d
[04:52] <kanzie> Im running a laptop with ati-card and dualscreen, all working fine. But I would like to install beryl, will I have any problems with dual-screen and Beryl?
[04:52] <mimilus> hello i'm french so sorry for my language
[04:52] <saxartist> kanzie: you shouldn't
[04:52] <saxartist> I have both
[04:52] <saxartist> dual and beryl
[04:52] <stefg> rausb0: from the performance side you're right. from the security side this fakes block boundaries, which obfuscate recovery attempts with an electron microscope ... (ok, we're getting theoretical here)
[04:52] <mimilus> i've a p4p800 e deluxe motherboard
[04:52] <redtea> how can I set up 3d
[04:53] <mimilus> could i guet temp of my card and freq of my cpu ?
[04:53] <M_> kanzie: what video card are you using?
[04:53] <rausb0> stefg: if the data is all random, how would bs=10M make a difference?
[04:53] <M_> kanzie: i mean, you shouldn't have a problem, but tweaking it in Nvidia will be a lot easier than say, ATI
[04:54] <fxcdb> mimilus: what exactly are you trying to do?
[04:54] <stefg> rausb0: it's still a question of write timings... as you noticed it's quicker to burst out 10M at a time than 512 bytes (a sector)
[04:54] <fbc> Help!!! I forgot my password. I have a desktop LIVE CD I just need someone to send me a link to the procedure.
[04:55] <jrib> !password > fbc (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:55] <kanzie> M_: ATI Radeon X1300
[04:56] <mimilus> i'm trying ubuntu with e17, and there is an applet wich must say temp and another which must say cpu freq
[04:56] <mimilus> but i have nothing
[04:56] <rausb0> stefg: ah, you mean the drive electronics handles large block writes different than small block writes?
[04:56] <fbc> jrib:  that didn't help me
[04:56] <M_> kanzie: assuming you already have a dual monitor setup in windows and are trying to convert over, shouldn't be that bad..but I'm afraid I use Nvidia, so I can't really speak for ATI, which has some issues w/ ubuntu
[04:57] <fbc> jrib:  I need the procedure to eliminate or change my user password
[04:57] <kanzie> M_: Nah, running a feasty setup
[04:57] <kanzie> no windows here
[04:57] <jrib> fbc: fbc yeah, I thought it used to say that... .  Just run 'passwd YOUR_USER' from recovery mode
[04:58] <fbc> jrib k, I'll try that
[04:58] <M_> kanzie: oh, so you're trying to set up a dual monitor straight up then...Mmm, yeah, shouldn't be that bad. I'd say, just plug 'em in, see what happens:) best place I can think of to start
[04:58] <stefg> rausb0: it's along the lines that you overwrite sector by sector, and that forensics allow you to detemine if the write process was part of a bigger write of just a single block access.... let's move to #ubuntu-offtopic for further discussion
[04:58] <rustalot> what kind of live cd can I get that will run on 128MB RAM? I don't need a gui, just a command line.
[04:58] <creature> Thanks for the help, guys. My housemate's computer now has a reasonably-sized desktop and mplayer installed. Bye for now.
[04:58] <saxartist> kanzie: M_:  Don't just plug it in and see what happens
[04:59] <saxartist> kanzie: You have nvidia?
[04:59] <rausb0> stefg: alright. i think the explanation is sufficient :)
[04:59] <dotred> dotred
[05:00] <M_> saxartist: why shouldn't he just start setting it up?
[05:00] <saxartist> You have to change some xorg.conf stuff
[05:00] <saxartist> I've done it many a time
[05:00] <M_> saxartist: oh, well, yeah
[05:00] <M_> saxartist: I dunno, my Nvidia worked (sort of) right off the bat; the data i got back from plugging it in helped me figure out what to change in xorg
[05:00] <rausb0> stefg: okay, more on-topic. have you tried vice (c=64 emu) on feisty? it just displays a black screen when started.
[05:01] <saxartist> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=221174&highlight=dual+monitors kanzie
[05:01] <saxartist> perfect guide
[05:01] <M_> saxartist: that's all I really meant; but he's got ATI so I can't really speak for that
[05:01] <saxartist> oh, he'll have to use that ATI thing then
[05:01] <bobsomebody> sweet
[05:01] <bobsomebody> it worked
[05:01] <stefg> rausb0: i kicked my breadbox around 1991 and never looked back (print $,8,1) :-)
[05:01] <resident_moron> quit
[05:01] <M_> safxartist: either way should work, I"m just a fan of experimenting a while
[05:02] <rausb0> stefg: oh okay :)
[05:02] <wedontneed> when i open yahoo games on mozilla i get this error http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28493/ why?
[05:02] <M_> saxartist: have you ever set up, say, Berl on an ATI?
[05:02] <M_> saxartist: it looks like a pain
[05:02] <saxartist> M_ I have not
[05:02] <saxartist> I only have Nvidia
[05:02] <bobsomebody> all  you bun-2's should check out my how-to on getting your computer to speak strings depending on your logs
[05:03] <saxartist> much better for linux and blender
[05:03] <M_> saxartist: damn
[05:03] <rausb0> stefg: i guess it has something to do with some security fixes in libX11. x64 reports "XCreateImage failed" when run from a terminal. i think there was a similar issue with rdesktop.
[05:03] <M_> saxartist: yeah, I agree; I got a laptop for reeeally cheap, but the tradeoff was having vista pre-installed (gag) and an ATI card
[05:03] <Jedrek`> does anybody know where i can enable FULL DUPLEX option in GNOME?
[05:03] <Jedrek`> for my soundcard?
[05:04] <saxartist> M_: at least it was cheap!
[05:04] <Busata> suits vista

[05:13] <jacksonL> Frogzoo: hm.. that appears to be somewhat working, but it has a problem because the filenames have some spaces in them and it won't parse them correctly, i.e. "unzip:  cannot find or open Zelda, Zelda.zip or Zelda.ZIP." when the file is called something like Zelda\ Ocarina\ Of\ Time.zip. is there some way around that?

[05:32] <gnychis> jrib: don't have it installed :\  but, is the icon supposed to be nm-vpn-lock.png? do you know?  maybe i'm missing a gnome dependency which displays it... if i can just make sure i have the actual icon

[05:33] <jrib> I can't help him if I don't understand what he says :/
[05:33] <defrysk> Lunar_Lamp, first try sudo apt-get -f install
[05:33] <felix> hi! i m trying to get wpa2 running on feisty with a pcmcia orinoco cs on thinkpad t22. i get the error "ioctl[IPW_IOCTL_WPA_SUPPLICANT] : Operation not supported". does that mean that this card cant do wpa?

[05:34] <novato_br> thx
[05:34] <Lunar_Lamp> defrysk, that doesn't work :-/
[05:34] <Nutubuntu> How worried should I be about a kernel Oops? Never saw one before ...
[05:34] <r0b-> how risky is it repartitioning a install Ubuntu drive
[05:35] <r0b-> while ubuntu is runnin
[05:35] <dystopianray> felix: the driver doesn't support wpa
[05:35] <felix> dystopianry so what can i do? is there another driver?
[05:35] <CPF__> Hi people, anyone here knows how to get php-gtk2 up-and-running?
[05:36] <dystopianray> felix: I don't know, the hardware may be too old to support wpa2 at all
[05:36] <asdf> Does any one know how to add web content to the desktop like "Active Desktop" in Windows?
[05:36] <dystopianray> asdf: what exactly do you want to achieve?
[05:36] <defrysk> Lunar_Lamp, sudo dpkg --remove <package>
[05:36] <felix> what should be too old? i think only the card matters
[05:36] <younghacker> ummm is there a reason why java applets don't work right in mozilla?
[05:37] <gnychis> can anyone running network-manager-gnome and has a wireless card describe what the icon next to secure networks looks like in the list of wireless networks?
[05:37] <younghacker> i can't use smiley faces on the chat,,,,,,,,,,,,,=(
[05:37] <asdf> dystopianray: I'd like to choose a web page/image on the web and have my wallpaper refresh every 10 minutes or so
[05:37] <danbee> younghacker: have you installed java?
[05:37] <CPF_> php-gtk2 -> ubuntu, nothing in google... :-S
[05:37] <magnetron> younghacker: did you install java support in the first place?
[05:37] <dystopianray> felix: the card itself may be too old, as far as I know orinoco is fairly old wifi hardware
[05:37] <Lunar_Lamp> http://pastebin.ca/603136 <== how do I fix a program that won't uninstall, even using apt-get -f
[05:37] <defrysk> qq
[05:37] <younghacker> yess, i've installed the java package, but java support?, i dunno i installed the package from synaptic
[05:38] <defrysk> Lunar_Lamp, sudo dpkg --remove <package>
[05:39] <Lunar_Lamp> defrysk, doesn't work
[05:39] <Nutubuntu> younghacker,  you need the plugin (if you've installed sun-java6-jre, for example, you need sun-java6-plugin)
[05:39] <younghacker> hmm
[05:39] <Chest> guys, my xp disk used to be the first master disk, but I switched it to the second and replaced the first one with ubuntu.  But I can't boot into windows from Grub.  The grub configuration looks ok, but i think i need to change my  boot.ini file.  Is anyone familiar with it's format?
[05:39] <younghacker> can i apt get that?
[05:39] <Nutubuntu> younghacker,  yes. it's just a separate package
[05:39] <younghacker> cool thanks i'll test it out now
[05:39] <Lunar_Lamp> defrysk, I think it's to do with the fact that it didn't install properly, so can't be removed :-/
[05:39] <defrysk> Lunar_Lamp, sudo dpkg --remove --force <package>
[05:40] <danbee> younghacker: either sun-java5-plugin or sun-java6-plugin
[05:40] <Comrade-Sergei> how do i convert a .mdf to a .iso in ubuntu?
[05:40] <Lunar_Lamp> defrysk, which force options should I be using?
[05:40] <Nutubuntu> How worried should I be about a kernel Oops that did not lock up the computer, and that (so far) has not happened again? Running Feisty on a dual-core a64
[05:40] <quinton_> Will someone please explain why my ubuntu is almost freezing up on everything I do?
[05:40] <fgm> 
[05:41] <fgm> 
[05:41] <jrib> hmm, too soon
[05:41] <defrysk> Comrade-Sergei, sudp apt-get install mdf2iso
[05:41] <danbee> quinton_: how much ram do you hav?
[05:41] <jrib> !cn | fgm
[05:41] <ubotu> fgm: For Ubuntu help in Chinese  #ubuntu-cn  #ubuntu-tw   #ubuntu-hk
[05:41] <quinton_> danbee, 1000
[05:41] <defrysk> sudo*
[05:41] <Lunar_Lamp> defrysk, even using --force-all fails
[05:41] <danbee> quinton_: you mean 1gb?
[05:41] <Comrade-Sergei> defrysk, well ok
[05:41] <quinton_> danbee, yeah
[05:42] <jhaig> quinton_: What does "uptime" say after "load average"?
[05:42] <ci_omegadog> is there a deb for 3.4 version of sqlite?
[05:42] <yurri> how do enable sli
[05:42] <defrysk> Lunar_Lamp, you seem have to have installed a totally incompatible package
[05:42] <yurri> ?
[05:42] <fgm> WINDOWS
[05:42] <Lunar_Lamp> defrysk, it didn't install properly though :-/  It failed during the post-install config
[05:42] <fgm> 
[05:42] <quinton_> jhaig, it just started doing this and everytime I close out or "force quit" something it loads a little black box in the bottom right of the screen and does not give me enough time to read it
[05:42] <kane77> is there a way to change owner of a file on ftp? wordpress won't recognize plugin when i own the directory...
[05:43] <defrysk> Lunar_Lamp, try synaptic and select broken packages and see if synaptic can handel it
[05:43] <jrib> fgm: please join #ubuntu-cn:   /join #ubuntu-cn
[05:43] <dystopianray> kane77: I don't think you can change the owner of a file over ftp, only the permissions
[05:43] <Lunar_Lamp> defrysk, it's a server install, no GUI
[05:43] <quinton_> jhaig, linux virus much?
[05:43] <jhaig> quinton_: Extremely unlikely.
[05:43] <jhaig> Can you get a terminal window up?
[05:44] <quinton_> jhaig, let me see
[05:44] <defrysk> Lunar_Lamp, sudo aptitude remove --force
[05:44] <quinton_> jhaig, yeah
[05:44] <jhaig> quinton_: What do you get from "uptime" in the terminal?
[05:44] <Lunar_Lamp> defrysk, there is no --force for aptitue
[05:44] <quinton_> jhaig, explain how to see this?
[05:45] <yurri> how do i enable sli in ubuntu
[05:45] <jhaig> quinton_: Type "uptime"
[05:45] <quinton_> jhaig, 7 minutes
[05:45] <xerophyte> how can i find my DVD /dev/xxx name ? i take looked at the dmesg it didn't give me much info ?
[05:45] <idefix> in nautilus, if you want to specify primary and secondary sort criteria, how do you do that?
[05:46] <jhaig> quinton_: What does it say for "load average"?
[05:46] <defrysk> Lunar_Lamp, man aptitude | less and see if aptitude can help you out
[05:46] <dystopianray> xerophyte: /dev/dvd
[05:46] <quinton_> jhaig, o.oo, 0.14, 0.12
[05:46] <Nutubuntu> How worried should I be about a kernel Oops that did not lock up the computer, and that (so far) has not happened again? Running Feisty on a dual-core a64.
[05:47] <jhaig> quinton_: That says that there is almost no load on the machine, so you do not have anything running in the background slowing everything down.
[05:47] <qu-> stupid question - how to i find out which version of ubuntu is on this disk :) lol
[05:47] <quinton_> jhaig, no, only gaim and its slow even when thats not up.
[05:47] <jhaig> quinton_: You have 1Gb memory?  What processor do you have?  What speed?
[05:47] <dystopianray> quinton_: cat /etc/lsb-release
[05:48] <dystopianray> qu-: woops that was for you
[05:48] <quinton_> jhaig, amd athlon, asus pci mother board, 1gb, and a 100gig harddrive
[05:48] <qu-> 6.10 edgy
[05:48] <qu-> is there any reason for me to ugprade?
[05:48] <quinton_> dystopianray, ?
[05:48] <jhaig> quinton_: What have you tried to do that has run slowly?
[05:48] <danbee> quinton_: amd athlon what?  athlon xp? athlon 64?
[05:48] <qu-> or is 6.10 the latest
[05:49] <quinton_> danbee, 64
[05:49] <quinton_> danbee, i think
[05:49] <Sadjoker> bluefox83, when i do to sound devices, it shows sound in, sound out and ringing. I can see Voip USB Phone in the list of devices (i guess that tells me ubuntu detected the device) but there is no sound nothing.
[05:49] <dystopianray> quinton_: 7.04 is the latest
[05:49] <xerophyte> dystopianray, /dev/dvd: media is not recognized as recordable DVD: 0
[05:49] <chas> sorry
[05:49] <dystopianray> xerophyte: what is showing this error and what are you trying to do?
[05:49] <danbee> quinton_: have you installed any extra software since you installed ubuntu?
[05:49] <quinton_> jhaig, nothing... this machine ran windows vista and 3ds max9 with ease
[05:49] <quinton_> danbee, yes
[05:50] <qu-> should i upgrade from edgy 6.10? its not even listed on the ubuntu website :P
[05:50] <jhaig> quinton_: So you don't do anything and it just freezes?
[05:50] <Frogzoo> qu-: feisty really is better than edgy
[05:50] <qu-> Frogzoo, what is feisty's exact version #
[05:50] <quinton_> jhaig, yeah, it like freezes on small things like firefox and almost freezez on applications
[05:50] <Frogzoo> qu-: 7.04
[05:51] <PriceChild> quinton_, if it ain't broke, don't fix it
[05:51] <qu-> Frogzoo, - any reason why its much better? :)
[05:51] <Nutubuntu> How do I resolve a dpkg broken-pipe error during checkinstall? I think I'm misunderstanding it, because it seems to say a required lib is trying to overwrite itself? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28501/
[05:51] <PriceChild> qu-, no need to upgrade from edgy for another year
[05:51] <Sadjoker> bluefox83, there are to Voip Usb Phone on the list (hw:default,0) and (plughw:default,0)
[05:51] <jhaig> quinton_: Are you using a remote filesystem?  (bit of a stab in the dark)
[05:51] <quinton_> jhaig, whats that?
[05:51] <Frogzoo> qu-: azureus works?
[05:51] <qu-> but is edgy even supported?
[05:51] <quinton_> jhaig, no i dont think so 0.o
[05:51] <jhaig> quinton_: A filesystem on a different machine.  You would know if you were.
[05:51] <quinton_> jhaig, nope
[05:52] <quinton_> jhaig, sure wasnt
[05:52] <spoop> im trying to install nvidia drivers and when i try /sbin/init 3 I still get the error about needing to exit x windows, what am I doing wrong?
[05:52] <quinton_> jhaig, I do not dual boot either
[05:52] <qu-> hrms
[05:52] <dystopianray> spoop: why are you running /sbin/init 3?
[05:52] <spoop> I'm trying to not be in X Windows
[05:52] <spoop> so that I can run the nvidia installer
[05:52] <danbee> spoop: System -> Administration -> Restricted Drivers Manager
[05:53] <jhaig> quinton_: Can you make it freeze or is it aribrary?
[05:53] <dystopianray> spoop: it doesn't matter if you are in X and the nvidia drivers are in the ubuntu repos
[05:53] <spoop> I hit ctrl-alt-f1
[05:53] <dystopianray> spoop: what card do you have?
[05:53] <spoop> NVS 140
[05:53] <quinton_> jhaig, just out of nowhere... it freezes
[05:53] <spoop> on my thinkpad T61
[05:53] <quinton_> jhaig, I can make it freeze though yeah
[05:53] <spoop> I'm following the instructions on thinkwiki.org
[05:53] <qu-> can anyone tell me what is the best program i should use to burn an iso image on ubuntu?
[05:53] <astroraptor> hey, I found a set of netinstall floppy images for 6.10. Once I've put in the last disk and it's starting up the installer, it tells me: RAMDISK: incomplete write (1024 != 1526) 16809984
[05:53] <quinton_> jhaig, if i load my game or go to ANY flash base website or pretty much any site for that matter...
[05:54] <slugicide> Every time I open a page with Flash on it, Firefox freezes.  What to do
[05:54] <jrib> qu-: right click -> write to disc
[05:54] <IndyGunFreak> qu-: i like Gnomebaker
[05:54] <defrysk> qu-, just rightclick the image ans select burn
[05:54] <astroraptor> would that be bad RAM?
[05:54] <IndyGunFreak> of course, that works to.
[05:54] <quinton_> jhaig, do you have high knowledge with linux?
[05:54] <spoop> could someone just tell me why it says I'm running x server when I'm not?
[05:54] <jhaig> quinton_: Always with flash?  Or does it freeze with other things?
[05:54] <qu-> i guess i will go ahead and switch from edgy to 7.04
[05:54] <quinton_> jhaig, other things too
[05:54] <dystopianray> spoop: ignore those instructions
[05:54] <jhaig> quinton_: Reasonable knowledge.
[05:54] <dystopianray> spoop: what is the output of: $ sudo lspci | grep -i vga
[05:55] <spoop> hrm
[05:55] <danbee> spoop: have you tried the Restricted Drivers Manage?
[05:55] <dystopianray> spoop: there is absolutely no need to use the nvidia installer
[05:55] <quinton_> jhaig, help me with something else before my dad kills me please?
[05:55] <crazyfool> 
[05:55] <quinton_> jhaig, this is a small worry compared to what he wants
[05:55] <spoop> I tried apt-get install nvidia-glx
[05:55] <sycho> I just added a 40 gig HD (currently a fat32 partition) and I want to format the drive so it is a Linux partition. how do I do this?
[05:55] <deatheye> $BBg2H!)(B
[05:55] <qu-> i do not see a "burn" option :)
[05:55] <jhaig> quinton_: How long before he kills you?  :-)
[05:55] <danbee> spoop: is that a no then?  try the restricted drivers manager
[05:55] <quinton_> jhaig, pretty soon
[05:55] <spoop> my ultimate problem is that I cannot get it to run in my native res
[05:55] <spoop> ok will do
[05:56] <Stwange> I have a 200gig NTFS partition that's pretty much full, I want to move all the data to my linux partition, but I don't have enough space to copy it. Ideally, is there a way of converting the partition from NTFS and mounting it at /portal/? I really don't want to copy 20gig, extend/reduce partitions, etc. until I finished
[05:56] <dalesone> what the best app for running windows apps
[05:56] <Dark> hello. i wanted to do a benchmark test on my ubuntu, what can i use?
[05:56] <dystopianray> dalesone: wine
[05:56] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[05:56] <dystopianray> Dark: what do you want to benchmark?
[05:56] <dalesone> i got wine atm but its failing horribly
[05:56] <Stwange> dalesone - wine, or vmware :)
[05:56] <dfgas> k a friend of mine i installed compiz fusion on his computer, ubuntu, then he restarted the computer today and he has no window decorator now and compiz fusion isn't even going it, if i load compiz  its all good, any ideas?
[05:56] <Dark> graphics wise
[05:56] <alexseif> hi I messed up my apache and want to completely remove it and reinstall it with a fresh copy of configurations
[05:56] <SF100> i need some help with ati drivers, i had the restricted drivers installed but if I watched any video it would freeze the whole system so I had to hard reboot. I tried the ATI proprietary drivers and hosed my install and had to reinstall. I have an X1900 aill in wonder
[05:57] <IndyGunFreak> dalesone: what program are you trying to install?
[05:57] <fackamato> how mature is ubuntustudio copared to others_
[05:57] <dystopianray> Dark: glxgears?
[05:57] <furenku> I just recompiled rosegarden ... when i try to start it, i get a message saying it cannot find libjack.so.0 but I do know where this is... how can i tell the program to look for this?
[05:57] <Dark> tahnks, i will look for it
[05:57] <quinton_> jhaig, Hm, knowing my dad he went and spent like... ALOT on linux suse... And it doesnt boot... It says loading kernel... then takes him to a black screen and says no signal... he asks if you know the problem?
[05:57] <dystopianray> Dark: you already have it, just run it
[05:57] <Dark> from console?
[05:57] <dalesone> well i have my old windows partition that had my old games on,  im just trying to run them off the partition, or do i need to reinstall using wine too
[05:57] <r0b-> nixternal
[05:57] <dystopianray> Dark: yes, that'll do
[05:57] <slugicide> Actually it's not just Firefox.  When I do almost anything with video, that app will freeze.  VLC, etc.  Any Help?
[05:58] <dystopianray> dalesone: what games are you trying to run?
[05:58] <jhaig> quinton_: Looks like X (the graphical interface) is not configured properly.
[05:58] <alexseif> hi I messed up my apache and want to completely remove it and reinstall it with a fresh copy of configurations
[05:58] <astroraptor> hey, I found a set of netinstall floppy images for 6.10. Once I've put in the last disk and it's starting up the installer, it tells me: RAMDISK: incomplete write (1024 != 1526) 16809984
[05:58] <Dark> dystopianray: what i want to do is a compare between linux and win
[05:58] <IndyGunFreak> dalesone: i don't tihnk you can do that(run games off your windows partition), you'll have to install them in wine
[05:58] <quinton_> jhaig, huh?
[05:58] <mario02423> alexseif you here?
[05:58] <dystopianray> Dark: what do you want to compare exactly?
[05:58] <Dark> well
[05:58] <Dark> graphics wise for games
[05:59] <jhaig> quinton_: What happens if you press [Ctrl] +[Alt] +[F1]  together?
[05:59] <dystopianray> Dark: which games?
[05:59] <quinton_> jhaig, ehm me?
[05:59] <dalesone> steam   wow  quake 3  warcraft3
[05:59] <alexseif> yes
[05:59] <mario02423> Hey!
[05:59] <jhaig> quinton_: On the machine showing "No signal"
[05:59] <alexseif> Hi
[05:59] <Dark> just a benchmark app like the one that u can use for ut or 3dmark
[05:59] <alexseif> mario02423: shoot
[05:59] <Toma-> Anyone know how to batach convert a folder of wav files to a different sample rate?
[05:59] <mario02423> Alexseif: navigate to the directory JUST OUTSIDE of /apache (example: if Apache is installed in /etc/apache, navigate to /etc
[05:59] <quinton_> jhaig, hes using mine as a test ><;; because his noly has 250 ram
[05:59] <dystopianray> Dark: why use a synthetic benchmark? benchmark the actual apps you want to run
[05:59] <mario02423> Alexseif: then use the command rm -R /apache
[06:00] <quinton_> jhaig, allow me 10 minutes or so to restart and see?
[06:00] <dystopianray> Dark: wow and wc3 run in wine and quake3 has a native client
[06:00] <mario02423> Alexseif: that should remove the apache directory
[06:00] <idefix> how do you copy a character from the map into a wine aplication?
[06:00] <alexseif> yes thats what I tried to do earlier
[06:00] <spoop> ok, I tried the restricted drivers manager and all the shows is the Atheros driver
[06:00] <mario02423> Alexseif: then what happened?
[06:00] <dystopianray> Toma-: sox can do it
[06:00] <alexseif> in the apt-get install apache
[06:00] <jhaig> quinton_: Is it the same machine you are on now?
[06:00] <jrib> alexseif: don't use rm, use the package manager
[06:00] <SF100> i need some help with ati drivers, i had the restricted drivers installed but if I watched any video it would freeze the whole system so I had to hard reboot. I tried the ATI proprietary drivers and hosed my install and had to reinstall. I have an X1900 aill in wonder. Please help, Im ready to abandon linux and go back to windows :(
[06:00] <quinton_> jhaig, sadly yes
[06:00] <mario02423> alexseif: i do not use package managers; I only use command line
[06:00] <alexseif> it errors because there is no httpd.conf and other stuff
[06:00] <Dark> dystopianray: do you think an average of 56 fps in glxgears is good enough for compiz?
[06:00] <mario02423> alexseif: so your question might be out of my range.
[06:01] <Toma-> dystopianray: thanks, ill give it a google
[06:01] <dystopianray> Dark: not at all
[06:01] <jhaig> That might help a big - well it might mean you can fix it with a bit of a hack.
[06:01] <Dark> SF100, try Envy
[06:01] <quinton_> jhaig, he wants to see if its "what he wants" hes not all that computer literate
[06:01] <alexseif> jrib: the package manager can;t perform this task
[06:01] <dystopianray> Toma-: if you give me a minute i'll give youa  command to do it
[06:01] <jrib> alexseif: what task exactly?
[06:01] <Sadjoker_> i can go back to feisty if needed, plz help me with the skype problem.
[06:01] <mario02423> jrib: deleting apache
[06:01] <alexseif> mario02423: please go on
[06:01] <quinton_> jhaig, do you need a raw partition to do it?
[06:01] <jrib> alexseif, mario02423: it can...
[06:01] <Dark> dystopianray:, sorry i meant 5600
[06:01] <alexseif> jrib: I'm trying to reinstall apache with a
[06:01] <quinton_> jhaig, or that does not matter?
[06:01] <mario02423> alexseif: from the command line, the command "rm -R /apache" should work
[06:01] <enviouz> how do i change permissions on a whole partition? somehow only root has access to my damn usb drive
[06:02] <alexseif> clean set of dconfigurations
[06:02] <IndyGunFreak> Sadjoker_: why did you upgrade to joker?
[06:02] <IndyGunFreak> i mean gutsy
[06:02] <alexseif> mario02423: then
[06:02] <jrib> mario02423: you confuse the package manager if you rm stuff it installled
[06:02] <mario02423> alexseif: that's all
[06:02] <Toma-> dystopianray: oh :D thats too much, ill look up a bash scripting guide while im at it ;D
[06:02] <dystopianray> Dark: well glxgears doesn't really tell you much, what video card do you have?
[06:02] <mario02423> jrib: i've never used a package manager, so I wouldn't know that.
[06:02] <Sadjoker_> Indygunfreak, yeap
[06:02] <jhaig> quinton_: Do you have it set up with Ubuntu/SuSE dual boot?
[06:02] <alexseif> how do i install it again
[06:02] <Dark> geforce fx 5500 256 mb
[06:02] <IndyGunFreak> Sadjoker_: my point is, why did yu upgrade?
[06:02] <danbee> spoop: what is the output of: $ sudo lspci | grep -i vga
[06:02] <Dark> dystopianray: geforce fx 5500
[06:03] <quinton_> jhaig, no, when i trry to install suse on mine it just does the same thing... black screen then says no signal
[06:03] <jrib> mario02423: try to keep in mind that most people do use a package manager though when helping
[06:03] <dystopianray> Toma-: ok then
[06:03] <quinton_> jhaig, it does load the kernel though... but then it goes to the black screen
[06:03] <alexseif> mario02423: how do install it again
[06:03] <SF100> well with my experience so far with linux, i dont think im ever getting rid of windows.
[06:03] <jhaig> quinton_: Oh, right, so it isn't installed yet?  Is there an option in the boot message (before "Loading kernel") to do a text install?
[06:04] <dystopianray> Dark: should be fine, best way to know is to try it out
[06:04] <mario02423> alexseif: ./configure, etc.
[06:04] <jrib> alexseif: aptitude purge PACKAGE   removes PACKAGE along with any config files.  aptitude install PACKAGE  then installs it again
[06:04] <Sadjoker_> Indygunfreak, well i didn't try it on Feisty so its not like it use to work there. I thought gutsy would be better than Feisty so I upgraded. Hope it was not bad decesion.
[06:04] <spoop> danbee: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation Unkrown device 0429 (rev a1)
[06:04] <Dark> dystopianray: any links for an easy install?
[06:04] <quinton_> jhaig, no, theres like boot from harddrive (loads ubuntu) and there is like install suse and some other options im posative no text install though
[06:04] <mario02423> jrib; what is aptitude?
[06:04] <dystopianray> Dark: no, sorry
[06:04] <Dark> np
[06:04] <timmak> i have installed ubuntu server on my imac g3 then ssh and made it an static ip, however i am trying to connect to it through my laptop that runs ubuntu desktop and i ma having no luck any suggestions?
[06:04] <jrib> mario02423: apt frontend
[06:04] <alexseif> ok sorry mario but I don't know how to do that so i'm gonna go along with jrib for now thanx a lot though
[06:04] <IndyGunFreak> Sadjoker_: lol, why would you think that/... Gutsy is still extremely early in Beta
[06:05] <jhaig> quinton_: Silly question, maybe, but do you choose 'install' or 'boot from harddrive'?
[06:05] <jrib> !aptitude > mario02423 (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:05] <mario02423> alexseif: you're welcome. Best of luck.
[06:05] <quinton_> jhaig, install
[06:05] <n30n1> my vlc won't show the video on .bin file videos
[06:05] <alexseif> jrib: can you tell me the command I'm looking for or the option in the packet manager
[06:05] <dfgas> does 7.04 use emerald?
[06:05] <slicky> hi.. anyone know where i cant get some info on howto install my soundcard?
[06:05] <dystopianray> n30n1: what format is the video in?
[06:05] <enviouz> anybody?
[06:05] <n30n1> dystopianray: its a .bin?
[06:06] <mobal> timmak: firewall?
[06:06] <mario02423> jrib: thank you. But I haven't a clue what APT is, either.
[06:06] <jrib> alexseif: sudo aptitude purge apache2.2-common apache2 && sudo aptitude install apache2
[06:06] <quinton_> jhaig, we havent tried the ctrl +alt + f1 yet...
[06:06] <n30n1> dystopianray: It has a .cue that exicutes a .bin
[06:06] <quinton_> jhaig, whats it do?
[06:06] <Nutubuntu> How worried should I be about a kernel Oops that did not lock up the computer, and that (so far) has not happened again? Running Feisty on a dual-core a64.
[06:06] <dystopianray> n30n1: that is a cd image
[06:06] <mobal> slicky: what sound card?
[06:06] <jrib> mario02423: you are missing out on what is probably the greatest benefit to a debian-based distro
[06:06] <n30n1> dystopianray: it should still play in vlc
[06:06] <alexseif> jrib: thanx i'll give ti shot
[06:06] <timmak> how can i tell if ther is a firewall running
[06:06] <jhaig> quinton_: It should give you a text console - ie, without a graphical interface.
[06:06] <mario02423> jrib: hahaa - can I have more information?
[06:06] <dystopianray> n30n1: you are probably lacking an mpeg codec
[06:06] <quinton_> jhaig, Am I inteligent enough to do that? lol
[06:06] <n30n1> dystopianray: the audio works, and the video works for a second when you go to full screen then goes black
[06:06] <SF100> this is even more frustration, Im at wits end with this OS
[06:06] <mario02423> jrib: Google is being shady today.
[06:06] <Sadjoker_> IndyGunFreak, Sorry i 4got to tell ya. I'm using an Acer Aspire 5610 and while usinf Feisty it game me probs with wifi and resolution changing to Gutsy solved my prob coz getting the right apps were easy from add/remove

[06:07] <slicky> mobal: 02:0a.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB0400 Audigy2 Value
[06:07] <dystopianray> n30n1: fullscreen does not work?
[06:07] <mario02423> jrib: I appreciate the link; thank you.
[06:07] <jrib> mario02423: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptitudeSurvivalGuide and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto are good places to start
[06:07] <jhaig> quinton_: ... but that was when I though you had it installed already.
[06:07] <mobal> timmak: if you could not see the computer or you can't acces in your lan
[06:07] <danbee> spoop: you could try envy -> https://launchpad.net/envy
[06:07] <enviouz> apt is actually rather easy to use
[06:07] <quinton_> jhaig, oh
[06:07] <dystopianray> slicky: i have the same card, it 'just works'
[06:07] <smultron> when i open OpenOffice, there's no more icons. just text for button. how do i fix this?
[06:07] <mario02423> jrib: "In the beginning there was the .tar.gz. Users had to compile each program that they wanted to use on their GNU/Linux systems." - I still do that. :-D
[06:07] <spoop> ok thanks
[06:07] <timmak> can't access the lan
[06:07] <n30n1> dystopianray: only for a split second, then goes black. you can see the video or a shimmering moment when it first goes to full
[06:07] <danbee> spoop: i'll warn you though, it screwed my x config up somewhat but you may have success
[06:07] <IndyGunFreak> Sadjoker_: i don't know, good luck, try #ubuntu+1 for gutsy support
[06:07] <slicky> dystopianray:  hm.. here it says that i dont have a soundcard installed..
[06:07] <dystopianray> n30n1: what if you don't go to fullscreen?
[06:07] <mobal> slicky: ubuntu 7.04? :S i have same sound cartd and alsa + oss (the stock ubuntu driver) work's fine...
[06:07] <n30n1> dystopianray: it's black with audio
[06:08] <dystopianray> n30n1: sounds like a vlc problem
[06:08] <SF100> am i even visible in here?
[06:08] <dystopianray> n30n1: or maybe video driver
[06:08] <Nutubuntu> SF100,  yes
[06:08] <dystopianray> SF100: no
[06:08] <smultron> when i open OpenOffice, there's no more icons. just text for button. how do i fix this?
[06:08] <jhaig> quinton_: For SuSE you would do better joining the #suse channel.  I can help a bit but most people here will only be able to help with Ubuntu.
[06:08] <Raiders32> #quit
[06:08] <Nutubuntu> SF100,  okay, no ;)
[06:08] <quinton_> jhaig, yeah I havent even got it installed yet... I wait for my asus motherboard screen to come up the tap f8 to load from memorex cd and load the disk at my boot... then it takes me to the linux screen and I hit install and it says loading kernel and goes to black screen and says no signal
[06:08] <BrokenSegue> will executing a link to an exe always be equivalent to executing the exe?
[06:08] <slicky> mobal:  hm.. iv installed alsa.. still nothing..  any clue on why it cant be found?
[06:08] <SF100> lol
[06:08] <n30n1> dystopianray: do yo know of any other players that will play .bin
[06:08] <mobal> slicky: try to change the sound options to audygi and user the volume controller (if muted...)
[06:08] <dystopianray> slicky: what can't find it?
[06:08] <mobal> try install oss too
[06:08] <mario02423> Alright; I'm taking off. Thank you for your help, jrib. And best of luck alexseif.
[06:08] <dystopianray> n30n1: what is it exactly? a vcd or a dvd or something?
[06:08] <mobal> slicky: try install oss too
[06:09] <slicky> dystopianray:  ubuntu cant find it.. alsa mixer cant find it..
[06:09] <dystopianray> n30n1: bin/cue is a cd image format
[06:09] <alexseif> thanx again
[06:09] <n30n1> dystopianray: techincally its a vcd
[06:09] <slicky> mobal:  ill check that out
[06:09] <bkudria> at the start of my boot, my computer freezes with the message "EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode".  what is wrong?
[06:09] <dystopianray> n30n1: i think kaffeine may be able to play it
[06:09] <jrib> mario02423: np
[06:09] <mobal> slicky: system -> options -> sound audigy is checked?
[06:09] <jhaig> quinton_: The "No signal" is a message from the the monitor to tell you that it is not getting anything from the computer.  Basically, it means that the graphics card is not configured properly.
[06:09] <SF100> Can anyone help me with an ATI driver for an ATI X1900 AIW? I used the restricted driver and got lock ups when playing video
[06:10] <n30n1> dystopianray, installing now
[06:10] <quinton_> jhaig, oh hmmm...
[06:10] <dystopianray> slicky: has the snd-emu10k1 module been loaded?
[06:10] <vinny> hi all
[06:10] <enviouz> how do i change permissions on a whole partition? somehow only root has access to my damn usb drive
[06:10] <alexseif> jrib: i'm getting different kind of errors
[06:10] <quinton_> jhaig, but it is installed properly... I installed all the drivers
[06:10] <slicky> mobal:  there is no such thing..  theres not even a device
[06:10] <n30n1> dystopianray, i think beryl manager kills my video driver
[06:10] <Nutubuntu> How do I resolve a dpkg broken-pipe error during checkinstall? I think I'm misunderstanding it, because it seems to say a required lib is trying to overwrite itself? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28501/
[06:10] <dystopianray> enviouz: what filesystem is it?
[06:10] <enviouz> fat32
[06:10] <dystopianray> n30n1: quite possibly
[06:11] <slicky> dystopianray: yes..
[06:11] <dystopianray> n30n1: try without beryl first
[06:11] <valdas> ./configure: 27: cannot open /proc/ksyms: No such file
[06:11] <valdas> -en Where is the linux source build directory [/lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/build] :
[06:11] <dystopianray> slicky: does dmesg have any alsa errors?
[06:11] <valdas> wtf?
[06:11] <vinny> i have a macbook, and every distro after 6.04 the partitioner crashes when i select a mount point
[06:11] <vinny> the only way i have been able to get an up to date install is to install with 6.04 and dist-upgrade
[06:11] <vinny> anyone?
[06:11] <slicky> dystopianray: EMU10K1_Audigy: probe of 0000:02:0a.0 failed with error -5
[06:11] <alexseif> jrib:
[06:11] <enviouz> its actually a usb mp3player.
[06:12] <dystopianray> enviouz: try mounting with -o umask=022
[06:12] <jhaig> quinton_: Ubuntu is generally better at automatic hardware configuration than other distributions.
[06:12] <enviouz> ok ty ill try that
[06:12] <Sadjoker_> IndyGunFreak, i did but it kinda looks like the place is empty, i think not too many ppl use Gutsy. One quick question though, is there any way i can get latest apps with Feisty from add/remove or terminal coz a month ago i could get automatix(apt-get install) from terminal but now it does not work.
[06:12] <dystopianray> slicky: is there no more to that error message?
[06:12] <n30n1> dystopianray, no dice
[06:12] <vinny> im  trying to install gutsy but the installer hangs when i pick a mount point
[06:12] <dystopianray> n30n1: killing beryl doesn't work?
[06:12] <vinny> same with eedgy
[06:12] <n30n1> dystopianray, my desktop background image looks sharper though
[06:12] <vinny> and with feisty
[06:12] <SF100> oh well i give up im going back to xp:(
[06:12] <IndyGunFreak> Sadjoker_: well, i woudln't recommend automatix, but yuou'd need the automatix repo. in your sources list to make it work
[06:12] <K-Fox> i am a good guy that disconnect chating here,,,, ummm it's time which is going to go to the bed
[06:13] <n30n1> dystopianray, attempting kaffiene
[06:13] <danbee> vinny: does the dist-upgrade approach not work for you?
[06:13] <vinny> it does
[06:13] <vinny> but its a pain in the a**
[06:13] <vinny> i want to use the install cd
[06:13] <slicky> dystopianray:  im afraid not
[06:13] <danbee> vinny: well how often do you need to install?
[06:13] <vinny> i thought it *should* work
[06:14] <dystopianray> slicky: google that error message and see if you can find out what is wrong
[06:14] <vinny> im a beta tester for apple
[06:14] <vinny> so i need that partition
[06:14] <vinny> about once every 2 months
[06:14] <Sadjoker_> IndyGunFreak, wats wrong with automatix?
[06:14] <danbee> vinny: beta tester for apple?  then why are you installing linux?
[06:14] <dystopianray> slicky: i have too have a sb0400 audigy 2 value and it has never had any problems
[06:14] <n30n1> dystopianray, "no handle for format .cue"
[06:14] <IndyGunFreak> !automatix | Sadjoker_
[06:14] <ubotu> Sadjoker_: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[06:14] <vinny> i like to tripple boot
[06:14] <vinny> i like linux
[06:14] <vinny> :D
[06:14] <vinny> hehe
[06:14] <droglar> is there an easier way to install it bcmwl5.inf
[06:15] <dystopianray> n30n1: try getting it to open the url vcd:///path/to/file.bin
[06:15] <danbee> vinny: that's fair enough, but i still don't understand why you need to install it more than once oO
[06:15] <vinny> also theres an app called terminatorx that lets you scratch mp3s on a turntable, but it needs dga and vm hardware doesnt seem to work
[06:15] <danbee> vinny: i guess it would be a pain if you were installing it on lots of macbooks :)
[06:15] <vinny> i need to reinstall it
[06:15] <vinny> because
[06:16] <droglar> is there an easier way to install it bcmwl5.inf
[06:16] <dystopianray> droglar:  'sudo ndiswrapper -i bcmwl5.inf' is not easy?
[06:16] <K-Fox> there is an easier way\
[06:16] <Sadjoker_> IndyGunFreak, thanx for letting me know. well i will then return to feisty
[06:16] <droglar> doesn not worlk says I have one installed alreqady
[06:17] <vinny> they release a build about once every 2 months and i download the image and splat it to a partition, and install it from the partition, i dont have access to a dual layer dvd burner so i have to do it that way, and im limited to 4 partitions becasue im running windows as well
[06:17] <vinny> which doesnt support gpt
[06:17] <dystopianray> droglar: and the one installed doesn't work?
[06:17] <droglar> nope
[06:17] <slicky> dystopianray:  seams to be a bug.. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/94333
[06:17] <smultron_> when i open OpenOffice, there's no more icons. just text for button. how do i fix this?
[06:17] <K-Fox> bcmwl5.inf <-=---- copy bcmwl5.inf ramdom folder
[06:17] <droglar> and I blacklisted the one that niswrapper tells me to do
[06:17] <vinny> i suspect thats why it hangs, because the ubuntu installer is gpt freindly, and i have a hybrid gpt/mbr table
[06:18] <vinny> but heres the thing, i formatted a partition as ext3, all i needed to do was set it as a mount point, and it still crashes
[06:18] <jrib> alexseif: pastebin them
[06:18] <vinny> which i think is a bit silly
[06:18] <vinny> but yeah i suspected that was what i would be told, jsut do it the obvious way and dist upgrade
[06:18] <vinny> so my next question:
[06:19] <danbee> vinny: well it sounds like you're doing something quite unusual, and maybe the installer hasn't been tested that way
[06:19] <vinny> any issues with dist upgrade to gutsy from 6.04
[06:19] <vinny> ?
[06:19] <dystopianray> slicky: it mentions disabling any onboard sound, have you tried that?
[06:19] <danbee> vinny: that i can't help you with
[06:19] <alexseif> jrib: pastebin them?
[06:19] <vinny> lol
[06:19] <jrib> !pastebin > alexseif (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:19] <vinny> danbee: thanks for your help anyway
[06:19] <vinny> :)
[06:19] <slicky> dystopianray:  yes. done that..
[06:20] <K-Fox> Iphone is OS that is installed Mac X?
[06:20] <Stwange> how can I convert a filesystem from NTFS to linux and mount it at /portal/, preferrably from ubuntu
[06:20] <dystopianray> slicky: do you have an earlier kernel you can try?
[06:20] <dystopianray> Stwange: why do you want to convert it?
[06:20] <spoop> danbee: thanks, envy worked, and i can run 1440x900 now :)
[06:20] <vinny> stwange
[06:20] <homerj> Stwange, you can read NTFS from linux
[06:20] <vinny> try fuse
[06:20] <vinny> if you need write support
[06:20] <danbee> spoop: excellent! glad to be of help
[06:20] <homerj> if you want to convert it to like ext3, jut backup the file, reformat, put them back on
[06:21] <Stwange> dystopianray:  - It's slower, and I only kept it NTFS until I managed to get a VM working for Windows
[06:21] <Stwange> homerj - I don't have the space to do that
[06:21] <danbee> vinny: no problem, sorry i couldn't help any more
[06:21] <slicky> dystopianray:  hm, no.. iv got the one that comes with ubuntu 7.04
[06:21] <dystopianray> Stwange: as far as I know it is not possible to do an in-place conversion to ext3 from ntfs
[06:21] <valdas> HEY WHATS THIS?:)
[06:21] <valdas> You need to install the gnome-common module and make
[06:21] <valdas> sure the gnome-autogen.sh script is in your $PATH.
[06:21] <dystopianray> slicky: you haven't updated?
[06:22] <Nutubuntu> !enter
[06:22] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:22] <alexseif> jrib: that looks like a kool tool how do you get to it?
[06:22] <K-Fox> if i can read NTFS from linux, what do i have to work?
[06:22] <jrib> alexseif: just visit http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org in your browser
[06:22] <slicky> dystopianray: updated?   iv got 2.6.20-16-generic
[06:22] <jrib> valdas: install the "gnome-common" package
[06:22] <jrib> valdas: what are you doing that gave you that error btw?
[06:22] <dystopianray> slicky: you should also have a 2.6.20-15 available
[06:22] <droglar> I have one more questions with all the problems I am having should I be running x86 or 64bit of ubuntu?
[06:23] <Horizon[Busy] > 64bit
[06:23] <dystopianray> droglar: x86 has the least problems
[06:23] <alexseif> jrib: no how do you get to it
[06:23] <Nutubuntu> Can anyone give me a hand compiling a pkg from source? I've done this a couple of times, but this time I'm seeing an error I don't understand. How do I resolve a dpkg broken-pipe error during checkinstall? I think I'm misunderstanding it, because it seems to say a required lib is trying to overwrite itself? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28501/
[06:23] <jrib> droglar: if you can't explain why you need to run 64bit, you should be using 32bit
[06:23] <jrib> alexseif: you give me the link you get after you submit it
[06:23] <sh00t> harr
[06:23] <slicky> dystopianray:  ok.. so i have to get 20-15 kernel and compile my hole linux n stuff?
[06:23] <droglar> had alot less problem 64bit then 32 bits when i run
[06:23] <dystopianray> slicky: no, you should already have it, it comes with feisty
[06:24] <jandl> Does anyone know how to listen to online streaming audio?
[06:24] <dystopianray> slicky: you would have updated to 2.6.20-16
[06:24] <alexseif> jrib: oh ok http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28512/
[06:24] <Toma-> Nutubuntu: use a safer prefix=
[06:24] <valdas> jrib: installing avant-navigator-window using autogen.sh ;)
[06:24] <dystopianray> slicky: when you boot it should have some text saying 'press a key for more options' or something similar to that
[06:24] <dystopianray> slicky: then you can choose a different kernel to boot from a subsequent menu
[06:24] <K-Fox> is it possible that it install on Iphone of Apple cop...?
[06:24] <Horizon[Busy] > no one with a clue would suggest running 32bit ubuntu on a 64bit processor
[06:24] <slicky> ok... ill try.. brb
[06:24] <Horizon[Busy] > they're dreaming of non-existant problems that were fixed ages ago
[06:24] <jrib> alexseif: what version of ubuntu?
[06:24] <slicky> thaks for the tip
[06:24] <K-Fox>  is it possible that it install on Iphone of Apple cop...?  Ubuntu
[06:25] <alexseif> 6.06 ( i think)
[06:25] <dystopianray> droglar: go with 32-bit
[06:25] <jrib> !version > alexseif (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:25] <dystopianray> droglar: 64-bit has too many issues
[06:25] <Nutubuntu> Toma-,  thanks - can you explain (or help me learn for myself) what is "a safer prefix"? The README said ./configure --prefix=/usr, so I did that
[06:25] <Horizon[Busy] > droglar, go for 64bit, these guys don't know what they're talking about
[06:25] <Horizon[Busy] > dystopianray, what issues?
[06:25] <Moosejaw> how do i export all of my messages from evolution to thunderbird?
[06:25] <quinton_> jhaig, hey
[06:25] <alexseif> 6.06 LTS
[06:25] <dystopianray> Horizon[Busy] : no flash for one
[06:26] <Toma-> Nutubuntu: nonono.... use --prefix=/usr/local
[06:26] <Horizon[Busy] > dystopianray, of course there's flash
[06:26] <alexseif> how do you do that ubotu thing
[06:26] <Nutubuntu> Ah! T/y Toma- :)
[06:26] <Horizon[Busy] > just run 32bit flash
[06:26] <jandl> ther has got to be a way to listen to streaming audio
[06:26] <K-Fox> also..... it's impossible?
[06:26] <dystopianray> droglar: I'd highly recommend using 32-bit ubuntu unless you have a very specific need to go 64-bit
[06:26] <n30n1> is deamon tools availble for ubuntu?
[06:26] <alexseif> I'm entertained
[06:26] <valdas> jrib: thanks.
[06:26] <Horizon[Busy] > dystopianray, is a noob, ignore him
[06:26] <NickL_> hello, while to record audio the output of the mic gets redirected to the speakers, and doesn't get recorded at all.
[06:26] <will851> Horizon[Busy] , what are the benefits of running 64bit?
[06:26] <NickL_>  The recording input is set to mic.
[06:26] <dystopianray> n30n1: no, but mounting cd images is standard operation
[06:26] <jrib> !iso > n30n1 (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:26] <NickL_> does anyone have a clue on how to get it work properly?
[06:26] <Horizon[Busy] > will851, how about you actually take advantage of your hardware you payed for?
[06:27] <dystopianray> Horizon[Busy] : if anyone here is a noob it is you
[06:27] <Moosejaw> how do i export all of my messages from evolution to thunderbird?
[06:27] <droglar> no i dont i just see that I had alot less probelsm running 64bit over 32 I cant get anythgn to install coreect
[06:27] <Horizon[Busy] > will851, and the question is what is the reason to use 32bit...
[06:27] <slicky> dystopianray: booted the 20-15 kernel.. still no sound..
[06:27] <jrib> Horizon[Busy] : please don't call others noobs here
[06:27] <alexseif> jrib: you're putting out fires every where
[06:27] <n30n1> whats the command for creating mountpoints
[06:27] <Horizon[Busy] > well if people would stop giving people false information
[06:27] <Horizon[Busy] > I might
[06:27] <will851> Horizon[Busy] , well does the 64bit version offer a performance boost over 32bit versions?
[06:27] <alexseif> I like your spirit
[06:27] <dystopianray> will851: no it does not
[06:27] <Jeff_> n30n1: mkdir
[06:28] <dystopianray> will851: it may provide a performance decrease in some cases
[06:28] <jrib> !ubotu > alexseif (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:28] <pike__> Horizon[Busy] : i seriously doubt youre taking advantage of the ability for proc to address more that 4 gigs ram on a desktop currently ;p
[06:28] <n30n1> Jeff_, under dev/media right?
[06:28] <will851> dystopianray, then why run it? i don't have >4gb ram
[06:28] <imbezol> dystopianray: ok, i agree now that you're a noob
[06:28] <Jeff_> i am having problems too
[06:28] <NickL_> I've tried googling for it, but most of the solutions don't work for me...
[06:28] <dystopianray> will851: you shouldn't run it unless you have a very specific need to
[06:28] <imbezol> that's complete crap
[06:28] <Jeff_> i did mkdir /media/storage
[06:28] <dystopianray> imbezol: why?
[06:28] <Nutubuntu> Hi Toma- ... even with  --prefix=/usr/local, dpkg throws the same error :(
[06:28] <alexseif> jrib: I don't want to get in your way if you can lead me to documentations to installations and stuff I'll be more than greatfull
[06:28] <Jeff_> and it is there but chown doesn't do anything
[06:28] <imbezol> if you have a 64 bit processor run a 64 bit linux. period.
[06:28] <PriceChild> imbezol, not really.
[06:28] <dystopianray> imbezol: you are wrong
[06:28] <imbezol> you shouldn't run a 32 bit unless you have a specific need to
[06:28] <PriceChild> imbezol, user preference.
[06:29] <will851> imbezol, why?
[06:29] <dystopianray> imbezol: you've obviously never used a 64-bit linux
[06:29] <imbezol> why would you run 32 bit? there's no good reason unless you need 32 bit compat
[06:29] <dystopianray> imbezol: that is the main reason
[06:29] <imbezol> dystopianray: i've been using 64 bit linux since the first AMD processors came out
[06:29] <dystopianray> imbezol: many common operations require 32-bit support
[06:29] <K-Fox> is Uuntu a easy OS  for beginners?
[06:30] <imbezol> dystopianray: which are still very easy to do in 64 bit linux using a 32 bit compat layer
[06:30] <PriceChild> K-Fox, "yes"
[06:30] <jrib> alexseif: have you been getting the liblog4j1.2-java-doc error for a while?  it seems unrelated
[06:30] <valdas> oh cant install avw ;)
[06:30] <younghacker> how do i uninstall an application with apt?
[06:30] <valdas> rubbish
[06:30] <K-Fox> PriceChild : thanks~
[06:30] <pike__> K-Fox: it is one of the gentlest intros to linux imo
[06:30] <jrib> !apt > younghacker (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:30] <redheat> Pricechild, verb3x..hi everyone
[06:30] <dystopianray> imbezol: and even easier on 32-bit, requiring no compatibility layers
[06:30] <imbezol> if you use a 32 bit linux with a 64 bit system you're only helping further the reason there's not more 64 bit compat out there
[06:30] <Jeff_> younghacker:  apt-get remove
[06:30] <valdas> younghacker: apt-get remove
[06:30] <alexseif> nope since I deleted the apache configuration files
[06:30] <redheat> thank you for your help in advance
[06:30] <alexseif> manually
[06:30] <EnkeleiD> hello help please
[06:30] <EnkeleiD> checking whether the C compiler (gcc  ) works... no
[06:30] <EnkeleiD> configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler cannot create executables.
[06:30] <redheat> I have reinstalled ubuntu..again..and I have also installed nvidia drivers this time..
[06:30] <jrib> EnkeleiD: what are you compiling?
[06:30] <PriceChild> !build-essential | EnkeleiD
[06:30] <ubotu> EnkeleiD: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[06:30] <redheat> the correct way..
[06:30] <EnkeleiD> GCC
[06:30] <jrib> alexseif: join me in #ubutu-classroom
[06:31] <redheat> you can see the steps iI followed over here
[06:31] <PriceChild> EnkeleiD, you will also need to install build-essential
[06:31] <Otacon22> how can i set a limit of space for some users on my pc?
[06:31] <redheat> but the problem of resolution is still as it is
[06:31] <PriceChild> EnkeleiD, why are you building gcc? :O
[06:31] <K-Fox> pike__: ok~~~
[06:31] <quinton_> Hey, Will ubuntu burn a .iso to a cd without installing aditional programs?
[06:31] <ipstacks_> yes
[06:31] <theBishop> is there a way to make Rhythmbox copy/organize music by ID3 tag?
[06:31] <dystopianray> quinton_: yes
[06:31] <EnkeleiD> why can i find anywhere for ubuntu?
[06:31] <EnkeleiD> where?
[06:31] <Jeff_> wells@wellserver:~$ sudo chown -R wells:wells /media/storagechown: changing ownership of `/media/storage': Operation not permitted
[06:31] <Jeff_> that is the error i get
[06:31] <PriceChild> EnkeleiD, anywhere?

[06:32] <valdas> anyone can help installing  AVANT-NAVIGATOR-WINDOW?
[06:32] <Dark> hello. wich is the super button on the keyboaqrd?
[06:32] <quinton_> dystopianray, ok, thank you... I think I am going to switch to xubuntu... ubuntu is not working the best for me... any feedback?
[06:32] <redheat> guys this is the post I'm talking about http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=649d1d44a7e315242b548bbfdde9b4c3&t=94072
[06:32] <will851> Dark, the windows key
[06:32] <Dark> thanks
[06:32] <PriceChild> !anyone | valdas
[06:32] <ubotu> valdas: 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?
[06:32] <ipstacks_> the windows key is the super button
[06:32] <pike__> quinton_: what problems are you havning?
[06:32] <dystopianray> quinton_: no
[06:32] <bkudria> at the start of my boot, my computer freezes with the message "EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode".  what is wrong?
[06:33] <quinton_> pike__, alot, ubuntu is freezing so bad on 1gb of ram that I cannot stand it and it all of a sudden did this too
[06:33] <Moosejaw> can anyone tell me how to import mail from evolution to thunderbird?
[06:33] <dystopianray> quinton_: sounds like a kernel problem, probably a hardware compatiblity issue
[06:33] <valdas> Can anyone help me out  installing  AVANT-NAVIGATOR-WINDOW?
[06:33] <dystopianray> quinton_: try googling for similar issues with the same or similar hardware
[06:33] <pike__> quinton_: i do prefer xubuntu but if you have 512 ram gnome should be snappy on a decent processor
[06:34] <redheat> guys, sorry for asking..
[06:34] <will851> Moosejaw, just a guess, you'll probably have to export your mail from thunderbird, then import it again into evolution
[06:34] <ados> i'm on ion3 right now
[06:34] <inayet> can anyone help me to work my soundblaster external sound card?
[06:34] <will851> Moosejaw, or the other way round...
[06:34] <quinton_> pike__, xubuntu for me because I run hard hard programs and need the speed.
[06:34] <redheat> guys, sorry for bothering, has anyone read my request?
[06:34] <WaxyFresh> whats the package that contains all the gnome menu apps? gnome-apps-???
[06:34] <pike__> quinton_: maybe pastebin hdparm /dev/hda    your hd prob isnt working up to snuff though id not think that is the actual problem
[06:34] <quinton_> pike__, 3ds max, and photoshop cs3 are not working the best on ubuntu especially with all of the lad
[06:35] <quinton_> pike__, lag
[06:35] <qubix> lol
[06:35] <HardDisk_WP> does anyone know a way to convert a modplug .it file to a mp3? it identifies for file as TAKATISB.IT: Impulse Tracker module sound data - "Takatis Credits" compatible w/ITv217 created w/ITv214
[06:35] <qubix_> that upgrade to 7.04 was quick
[06:35] <pike__> quinton_: oh, then you might be using the ram then :) pastebin hdparm output that will help

[06:43] <quinton_> pike__, one question... is kubuntu stable?
[06:43] <kistmet> lol dystopianray
[06:43] <PriceChild> inayet, also close any other apps using sound and restart firefox
[06:43] <PriceChild> kistmet, you'd be surprised
[06:43] <kistmet> oss won't work if another application is using it
[06:43] <kistmet> PriceChild, no i agree comepltly :/
[06:43] <pike__> quinton_: yes but if you are this slow there is a problem. is that line in /etc/hosts
[06:43] <kistmet> *completly
[06:43] <pike__> ?
[06:43] <johnficca> ok I so I just did make then sudo make install, is that all i need to do ?

[06:44] <decious> thanks
[06:44] <decious> I will give it a whirl
[06:44] <quinton_> pike__, I do not believe that is it...
[06:44] <kistmet> dystopianray, i was just generalising
[06:44] <kistmet> but i am not sure about that either
[06:44] <quinton_> pike__, call me a retard but I think its a virus
[06:44] <r0b-> compiz is a pain in the butt
[06:44] <kistmet> its been vlc vs amarok for me :/
[06:44] <PriceChild> quinton_, kubuntu is stable
[06:44] <foxjazz> anyone working with 64bit distro and video editing?
[06:44] <kistmet> r0b-, try #ubuntu-effects
[06:44] <quinton_> pike__,  my friends had a time while i was sleeping looking up porn....
[06:45] <PriceChild> !ohmy | quinton_
[06:45] <ubotu> quinton_: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:45] <pike__> quinton_: your comp is not slow because of a virus but if you dont want to troubleshoot it you can try another desktop environment i guess
[06:45] <Invisionfree> Ok, is it possible to resize my current partition and install another Ubuntu OS from the CLI?
[06:45] <pike__> !parted | Invisionfree
[06:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about parted - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:45] <quinton_> pike__, kubuntu seems to very very fitting to what i want
[06:45] <quinton_> pike__, kubuntu loads the same way as ubuntu?
[06:45] <foxjazz> quinton_: Linux is like 5 times faster than Windows.
[06:46] <will851> Invisionfree, install another ubuntu os?
[06:46] <kistmet> !gparted
[06:46] <ubotu> GParted is is a !GUI partitioning program. Type  sudo apt-get install gparted  in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php

[06:46] <alex`> hello, how to avoid this? "make: *** No rule to make target `all'.  Stop." ?
[06:46] <Invisionfree> Ok, is it possible to resize my current partition and install another Linux OS from the CLI?
[06:46] <qubix-> can anyone tell me the command to get info about your video card?
[06:46] <foxjazz> quinton_: go back to windows Quinton, it's probably more your speed.
[06:46] <genii> alex try first:  sudo ./configure
[06:46] <PriceChild> Invisionfree, not the / that's you're on right now
[06:46] <kistmet> Moosejaw, just click on the date tab on top
[06:46] <pike__> quinton_: sudo lshw or lspci -v or im sure there is stuff in /proc too
[06:46] <PriceChild> alex`, have you read the README file?
[06:46] <Invisionfree> I can't resize what I'm on?
[06:46] <pike__> qubix-: ^
[06:46] <PriceChild> Invisionfree, the drive must be unmounted
[06:47] <pike__> quinton_: disregard that wrong nick
[06:47] <inayet> I need help with making my sound blaster external sound card to work. Please  help.
[06:47] <quinton_> pike__, of course
[06:47] <Invisionfree> PriceChild: How would I do that and still resize it from Ubuntu?...
[06:47] <PriceChild> Invisionfree, boot a live cd
[06:47] <qubix-> pike__,  hmm? :)
[06:47] <Invisionfree> I don't have one
[06:47] <PriceChild> Invisionfree, how are you installing it?
[06:47] <inayet> It works with windows, but I dont like windows. this issue is the only issue that is keeping me from quitting windows all together
[06:47] <Invisionfree> PriceChild: Installing what?
[06:47] <Poromenos1> does anyone have experience with getting awstats to run on apache?
[06:48] <PriceChild> Invisionfree, what linux distro do you want to install... and why not from cd?
[06:48] <kistmet> inayet, what card do you have ?
[06:48] <Invisionfree> PriceChild: I want to install Fedora
[06:48] <pike__> qubix-: sudo lshw or lspci -v or im sure there is stuff in /proc too
[06:48] <Invisionfree> And my internet is too crappy to download the CD
[06:48] <ahorn> hi, how to get the tool outb?
[06:48] <kistmet> !outb
[06:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about outb - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:48] <kistmet> :/
[06:48] <inayet> kistmet: I have an external Creative SoundBlaster that connects with USB port
[06:49] <dystopianray> inayet: an extigy?
[06:49] <kistmet> inayet, do you have a model ?
[06:49] <Moosejaw> kistmet i think the problem was i had Group By Thread checked
[06:49] <Relam> hi
[06:49] <pike__> Invisionfree: that is what open APs are for :)
[06:49] <kistmet> Moosejaw, glad its worked out now :)
[06:49] <Invisionfree> APs?
[06:50] <dystopianray> inayet: wireless access points
[06:50] <Relam> why is my wg311T so weak under ubuntu but on the same machine it has good strength in windows?
[06:50] <kistmet> *YAY* i think my ipod battery finally got drained
[06:50] <dystopianray> Invisionfree: that was meant for you
[06:50] <qubix-> pike__,  ahh - well im actually trying to find out if i have 3d rendering working properly. i used to know the cmd but now i forget
[06:50] <kistmet> nvm :/
[06:50] <pike__> qubix-: glxinfo?
[06:50] <dystopianray> Relam: differences in the drivers
[06:50] <Invisionfree> I have wireless internet
[06:50] <dystopianray> Relam: try using ndiswrapper
[06:50] <qubix-> pike__, haha - thanks :)
[06:50] <younghacker> whats the name of the java plug in again i want to remove it
[06:51] <Relam> can i simply install ndiswrapper?
[06:51] <qubix-> pike__,  direct rendering : yes
[06:51] <qubix-> guess im good to go
[06:51] <qubix-> :x
[06:51] <Invisionfree> Whats the package name for Software Updates?
[06:51] <Nutubuntu> younghacker,  sun-java#-plugin
[06:51] <gita> having problems  with sound neeed help
[06:51] <pike__> Relam: you could use ndiswrapper. also you can adjust transmit power but your issue sounds like a general driver problem
[06:51] <Relam> ndiswrapper via synaptic?
[06:51] <foxjazz> gita: what's your sound card
[06:51] <pike__> qubix-: might as well install tremulous to be sure :)
[06:51] <gita> realtek hd audio
[06:51] <Invisionfree> Whats the package name for Software Updates?
[06:52] <qubix-> pike__, do you happen to know anything about bitchx???
[06:52] <ramza3> gedit sucks with large files, is there another good editor I can use (actually45MB doesnt seem that large to me) but it hoses
[06:52] <pike__> qubix-: sorry no. i used it a few times but it seems a little too 1996 :)
[06:52] <HardDisk_WP> how can I dump everything what applications send to the speakers?
[06:52] <foxjazz> ramza3: yes, a cool editor is:
[06:52] <Invisionfree> Whats the package name for Software Updates?
[06:52] <qubix-> :)
[06:52] <qubix-> pike__,  so, sudo apt-get install tremulous
[06:52] <younghacker> thats not it
[06:52] <foxjazz> ramza3: KomodoEdit
[06:52] <ramza3> KomodoEdit, thanks
[06:53] <foxjazz> ramza3: It's free on the Komodo site
[06:53] <pike__> qubix-: that is an online fps game.. i got addicted to it for a while
[06:53] <younghacker> i recently installed it is there a way to see what i installed today?
[06:53] <ramza3> foxjazz, apt-get?
[06:53] <qubix-> pike__,  yes, but is that the correct line to install it? :)
[06:53] <Invisionfree> Whats the package name for Software Updates?
[06:53] <pike__> qubix-: yeah
[06:53] <foxjazz> ramza3: no apt-get,   You have to download and install the old fashion way
[06:53] <nedw> when i try to boot into windows from grub it says "Starting up ... GRUB" and won'
[06:53] <nedw> *and won't boot
[06:53] <qubix-> pike__,  so that will tell me for sure if i have my 3D/video card setup right? :)
[06:54] <Invisionfree> Whats the package name for Software Updates?HELLO ALERT ATTENTION READ THIS <---
[06:54] <pike__> qubix-: well itll put an older card through its paces. if 3d isnt working youll certainly be able to tell
[06:54] <ramza3> foxjazz, libc++6?
[06:54] <nedw> what might be wrong? i checked my /boot/grub/menu.lst and nothing looks wrong
[06:55] <Toma-> Invisionfree: lol
[06:55] <will851> Invisionfree, package name for software updates? what do you mean?
[06:55] <Toma-> Invisionfree: synaptic
[06:55] <Invisionfree> will851: So I can update it
[06:55] <Invisionfree> I updated synaptic, it sitll won't let me upgrade to feisty.
[06:55] <nedw> Invisionfree: i think it is update-manager if that's what you're talking about
[06:55] <ahorn> damn ubuntu
[06:55] <will851> Invisionfree, adept or synaptic
[06:55] <qubix-> pike__,  i have it installed, and tremulous runs and boots - but no servers with any players!
[06:55] <qubix-> lol
[06:56] <homerj> USA! USA! The Mustard Belt comes back to the USA!
[06:56] <pike__> qubix-: change it to internet  there are a number of servers
[06:56] <Invisionfree> nedw wins! Thanks :D
[06:56] <pike__> qubix-: well.. there should be
[06:56] <Nutubuntu> Can anyone give me a hand compiling a pkg from source? How do I resolve a dpkg broken-pipe error during checkinstall?  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28501/  I ran ./configure --prefix=/usr (what the README suggested) and --prefix=/usr/local (suggested here) but got the error both tries
[06:57] <Toma-> Nutubuntu: what happens when you use /usr/local?
[06:57] <bronze> When setting up deluge (changing service ports), the application crashes. This happens when I press "Ok" to apply settings. Can anyone help me? I can paste.
[06:57] <Nutubuntu> Toma- the same error
[06:58] <Toma-> Nutubuntu: well did you run 'make clean' before running configure again?
[06:58] <sorcerer> why does burning a audio cd on linux take suuuuch a loong time ... iam using serpentine
[06:58] <Nutubuntu> Oh ... I'm such a n00b. Toma- no I didn't, I will now.
[06:58] <gita> can any one helop me out i have problems getting sound  from my istallation and i use realtek HD audio
[06:59] <Toma-> Nutubuntu: ok give it a shot. might work.  make sure you go 'make clean && ./configure --prefix=/usr/local && make'
[06:59] <nedw> Invisionfree: no problem
[07:00] <Toma-> woah... tomatoma
[07:00] <Toma-> weird
[07:01] <johnficca2> How do I install this http://castet.matthieu.free.fr/airo/ new driver and get wpa working on my cisco aironet 350 mini-pci card?
[07:02] <Nutubuntu> Toma- ... same problem: Installing Debian package ... FAILED. Same error in the logfile too (trying to overwrite `/usr/lib/libgconf2-4/2/libgconfbackend-xml.so', which is also in package libgconf2-4)
[07:02] <ramza3> foxjazz, so far it is pretty nice, you do ruby/python development with it?  is it free?
[07:02] <pippijn> hi all
[07:02] <pippijn> how do I add a make definition to a debian/rules file?
[07:02] <pippijn> like: make OPTION=1
[07:02] <Toma-> Nutubuntu: thats bizarre. seems like a cruddy makefile if its not obeying the prefix variable
[07:03] <Nutubuntu> Toma-,  it's not a very mature package - a new editor I want to try ... maybe I should file a bugrep with them and wait for a new build ?
[07:03] <jens> hallo
[07:04] <Toma-> Nutubuntu: if you really think its going to be ok, you can use 'dpkg --force-all builtpackagename.deb'
[07:04] <Toma-> Nutubuntu: you could always try!
[07:04] <jens> anyone in here?
[07:04] <BlueParrot> evening all, I'm trying to get a belkin card to work with ndiswrapper but I don't know teh exact version of teh card because I lost the box it came in, any suggestions ?
[07:05] <dystopianray> jens: there are 1152 people in here
[07:05] <Nutubuntu> Toma-,  if dpkg --force-all could break something that currently works ... I don't want to take the chance. Too much trouble for too little gain
[07:05] <pippijn> does anyone know?
[07:05] <Toma-> Nutubuntu: good call
[07:05] <Nutubuntu> Toma-,  t/y again for your help :)
[07:05] <Toma-> Nutubuntu: no problem!
[07:05] <johnficca2> do you think a new kernel might get my wpa to work on my cisco aironet 350 card
[07:05] <johnficca2> ?
[07:05] <dystopianray> BlueParrot: lspci will tell you exactly what model the card is
[07:05] <BlueParrot> dystopianray: cheers
[07:06] <Nutubuntu> How worried should I be about a kernel Oops that did not lock up the computer, and that (so far) has not happened again? Running Feisty on a dual-core a64.
[07:06] <jens> Is there anyone who has the time and is willing to help me install Limewire?
[07:06] <EnkeleiD> The ubuntu is just an open source may i buy it ?
[07:06] <Toma-> !limewire
[07:06] <ubotu> limewire is a popular P2P client running on the Gnutella network. To get it running, install !java first, then download Limewire from http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther and finally run runLime.sh. Consider !FrostWire as an alternative.
 you must install first java machine
[07:07] <paroxysm> my sound isn't working, i think something is tying up the resource. how can i free it?
[07:07] <dystopianray> EnkeleiD: you want a physical cd mailed ot you?
[07:07] <jens> and how do I do that?
[07:07] <erUSUL> !sound | paroxysm
[07:07] <ubotu> paroxysm: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[07:07] <virus> .
 i want a trustfull os :) lol
[07:08] <dystopianray> EnkeleiD: you can download ubuntu freely
[07:08] <paroxysm> erUSUL: my sound works, it's just that it isn't right now
[07:08] <quinton_> Can someone help me with burning a .iso?
[07:08] <adaptr> take WIndows, it trusts you completely - but also every spammer on the Internet :)
[07:08] <dystopianray> quinton_: what trouble are you having?
[07:08] <will851> quinton_, in gnome, just right click it and click 'write to cd' or similar
 search for jre in you package managment you will see it;)
[07:08] <Nutubuntu> EnkeleiD,  when you have downloaded the iso image, check that it is error-free by using md5sum and comparing the result to the checksum file - a lot faster than being mailed a CD and just as valid a check
[07:09] <jens> well I have Sun Java 6 web start
[07:09] <jens> so I guess that's ok?
 go in nero and download Nerolinux 3.0
[07:09] <quinton_> dystopianray, it tells me to insert a blank cd or dvd to the drive and I do... I retry several other blank cds and it continues to say the same thing
 go in nero and download Nerolinux 3.0 for debian
[07:09] <paroxysm> okay, let me try this again. in the sound settings, when i test the sound, i get gconfaudiosink is busy or unavailable.
[07:09] <erUSUL> paroxysm: if you want to now which processes are using the sound card use 'lsof /dev/snd/*'
[07:09] <dystopianray> EnkeleiD: that costs money
 thanks
[07:10] <EnkeleiD> yes it does
[07:10] <EnkeleiD> its just 29 $
[07:10] <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.
[07:10] <dystopianray> EnkeleiD: and it is not a solution to the problem
[07:10] <dystopianray> quinton_: have you used these same blank cds on this drive before?
[07:10] <pr4bh> hi, my system trays gone missing in gnome, what do i do to get it back?
[07:10] <quinton_> dystopianray, no
[07:11] <dystopianray> quinton_: is the cd detected at all when you insert it?
[07:11] <WaxyFresh> hi im on kde on and miss my old gnome apps,whats the package that would install most of them? gnome-menu-app or something?
[07:11] <EnkeleiD> www.k3b.org then
[07:11] <dystopianray> WaxyFresh: ubuntu-desktop will get you everything that comes with ubuntu by default
[07:11] <quinton_> dystopianray, yes... because it asks to format it for file or something else... but when i try to burn to it it acts like it isnt there (to all 5 cd's and dvd's)
[07:12] <dystopianray> quinton_: format it? is it rewriteable media?
[07:12] <lynxz> Hello, I have a Nvidia graphics card and a intel dual core, I can't get the Nvidia driver to work with a kernel compiled for the processor
[07:12] <pr4bh> i cant see system tray mentioned in 'add panel' section :S
[07:12] <cabroni> help whit chmod   ... How it works????
[07:12] <quinton_> dystopianray, no it is not rewritable
[07:12] <jrib> !permission > cabroni (see the private message from ubotu)
[07:14] <quinton_> dystopianray, how do I get nero for linux?
[07:14] <Dr_willis> cabroni,  theres a great many chmod tutorial web pages out that give all the details.
[07:14] <dystopianray> quinton_: don't bother with that
[07:14] <Dr_willis> quinton_,  go buy it from their web site?
[07:14] <Dr_willis> quinton_,  i dont see the need for it however.
[07:14] <dystopianray> quinton_: try $ wodom blah.iso
[07:14] <VoX> quinton_: k3b is better
[07:14] <Dr_willis> It dosent do anything that k3b or other tools do.. (at this time)
[07:14] <dystopianray> quinton_: sorry: $ wodim blah.iso
[07:14] <dystopianray> Dragnslcr: yes it does, blu-ray and hd-dvd
[07:15] <Dr_willis> Now IF nero came out with their full Nero7 Suit for Linux. Id buy that.
[07:15] <dystopianray> Dr_willis: sorry that was meant for you
[07:15] <ci_omegadog> Is there any way to check to see what ports i have open?
[07:15] <dinochopins> hi everyone. what is the resource for Ubuntu's printer driver ?
[07:15] <kuja> hurray for k3b
[07:15] <dystopianray> cidco: netstat
[07:15] <dystopianray> damn it
[07:15] <black_prince>  ...
[07:15] <dystopianray> ci_omegadog: netstat
[07:15] <ci_omegadog> ty
[07:15] <quinton_> dystopianray, what?
[07:15] <quinton_> dystopianray, that made no sence
[07:15] <dystopianray> quinton_: run that command on a terminal
[07:15] <foxjazz> Is there a way to make the filebrowser have su perms?
[07:16] <dinochopins> hi everyone. what is the resource for Ubuntu's printer driver ?
[07:16] <dystopianray> quinton_: it will burn the iso from the command line
[07:16] <cdubya> how do I get the default keyring for my wireless key to be the same as my login pwd?
[07:16] <cmota> hello
[07:16] <foxjazz> Is there a way to make the filebrowser have su perms?
[07:17] <ci_omegadog> i just did a dist-upgrade to Gutsy on my VPS, rebooted, and its still running fine
[07:17] <dystopianray> foxjazz: gksu nautilus
[07:17] <Dr_willis> foxjazz,  its not a good idea to run  the filemanager as root. You can easially  mess things up. :)
[07:17] <Dr_willis> foxjazz,  for one thing.. you might not be sure WHICH open window has root access.
[07:17] <quinton_> dystopianray, command not found
[07:17] <cabroni> ok, but how can I change the permissions of a file that users and others can modify, move, etc. ?
[07:17] <inimesekene> hello, i want to make sure i'm running in an XGL session
[07:17] <dystopianray> quinton_: what ubuntu release are you using?
[07:17] <inimesekene> how can i do that?
[07:18] <cdubya> !keyring
[07:18] <quinton_> dystopianray, dystopianray, the newest feisty fawn
[07:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about keyring - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:18] <dystopianray> quinton_: hrrm you must not have cdrkit installed for some reason
[07:18] <quinton_> dystopianray, come on man =/ i just need to burn a iso
[07:19] <cdubya> bah
[07:19] <lonnie> Can anyone tell me how to enable scrolling on a scroll mouse?
[07:19] <lonnie> some xorg.conf option?
[07:19] <dystopianray> quinton_: normally it is trivial but you say it does not recognise your media
[07:19] <Dr_willis> lonnie,  hmm.. Mine always get set up automaticially. have for ages... what kind of mouse.
[07:19] <quinton_> dystopianray, Isnt there a free linux nero?
[07:19] <dystopianray> quinton_: no there is not
[07:19] <qubix-> does anyone know how to get actuall ansi fonts to work in bitchs w/ ubuntu
[07:19] <bronze> KTorrent: "The specified port is used by another application". How can I know WHICH app?
[07:19] <dystopianray> quinton_: and it still doesn't solve your problem
[07:19] <Dr_willis> Thre was a Linux Nero that you could get IF you had the comercial windows version of nero.
[07:19] <dystopianray> quinton_: try $ cdrecord blah.iso
[07:20] <dystopianray> bronze: $ netstat -tulp
[07:20] <barnydan> I'm trying to compile "Schrodinger Project - Implementing Dirac" when I run ./configure I get these errors "No package 'glib-2.0' found
[07:20] <barnydan> No package 'gthread-2.0' found
[07:20] <barnydan> " I read the ubuntu page on compiling and lookedfor libglib-.20-dev and libgthread-2.0-dev based on that pages advice, but could not find these files in using apt-get. what should my next course of action be?
[07:20] <lonnie> Dr_willis, It's just a wheel mouse with two buttons on either side of the scroll wheel.
[07:21] <Dr_willis> lonnie,  odd. it should be seen/working then. Ive had a dozen pc's with a dozen Mice. Its always seen them
[07:21] <bronze> dystopianray, it says "utorrent", even though utorrent isnt running at the moment.
[07:21] <quinton_> dystopianray, Command not found
[07:21] <Dr_willis> lonnie,  unless its a reall odd mouse. Have you altered the /etc/X11/xorg.conf at all?
[07:21] <dystopianray> quinton_: hrrm one of those two should be installed
[07:21] <lonnie> Dr_willis, Could you post or send me your xorg.conf file so I can look and see?
[07:22] <quinton_> dystopianray, and no i would just go on file hippo and find linux nero for free lol
[07:22] <administrador> #corua
[07:22] <quinton_> dystopianray, so what will we do to install them?
[07:22] <L0cKn> hello :D

[07:23] <dystopianray> quinton_: try $ sudo apt-get install wodim
[07:23] <daquino> am i smoking crack or does /etc/inittab not exist ?
[07:23] <cdubya> heh
[07:23] <Dr_willis> lonnie,  http://pastebin.ca/603249
[07:23] <dystopianray> daquino: it doesn't exist
[07:23] <daquino> wtf....
[07:23] <Dr_willis> daquino,  ubuntu uses the 'upstart' system now.
[07:23] <qubix-> does anyone know how to get actuall ansi fonts to work in bitchs w/ ubuntu
[07:23] <qubix-> bitchx*
[07:23] <SlimeyPete> daquino: ubuntu doesn't use init anymore
[07:23] <barnydan> inimesekene run glxgears
[07:23] <bronze> dystopianray, it says "utorrent", even though utorrent isnt running at the moment.
[07:24] <Dr_willis> qubix-,  ages ago i rember a 'bitchx font howto'
[07:24] <lonnie> Dr_willis, Ok, than ks
[07:24] <daquino> um...
[07:24] <lonnie> thanks
[07:24] <inimesekene> barnydan: it's choppy , but they work
[07:24] <dystopianray> bronze: try: $ killall utorrent
[07:24] <foxjazz> where can I find gawk?
[07:24] <Dr_willis> !info upstart
[07:24] <ubotu> upstart: event-based init daemon. In component main, is required. Version 0.3.8-1 (feisty), package size 155 kB, installed size 316 kB
[07:24] <Dr_willis> !find gawk

[07:24] <Dr_willis> !info gawn
[07:24] <ubotu> Package gawn does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[07:24] <harushimo> I just have a quick question
[07:24] <Dr_willis> !info gawk
[07:24] <quinton_> dystopianray, newest version is already installed
[07:24] <EnkeleiD> How can i access some folders in root with the graphical explorer in ubuntu exept of root console?
[07:24] <barnydan> inimesekene it should run very smooth.  your video driver is probably not installed correctly.
[07:24] <ubotu> gawk: GNU awk, a pattern scanning and processing language. In component main, is optional. Version 1:3.1.5.dfsg-4build1 (feisty), package size 468 kB, installed size 1956 kB
[07:24] <dystopianray> quinton_: you said wodim did not work
[07:25] <inimesekene> barnydan: i get Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":1.0".
[07:25] <dystopianray> quinton_: $ wodim blah.iso
[07:25] <inimesekene> barnydan: i'm using fglrx
[07:25] <harushimo> is it possible to make switches from one distro to another? because I'm dual booting my system
[07:25] <harushimo> I was curious on that
[07:25] <Caedmon> who could help me install limewire?
[07:25] <quinton_> dystopianray, it doesnt work because of the $ sign that messes it all up
[07:26] <dystopianray> quinton_: well of course you don't type '$', that indicates the prompt, it is already there
[07:26] <Dr_willis> EnkeleiD,  for my own 'root' file manager. i tend to use 'mc' that way i Know that im 'root' in that window.    You can always run 'gksu nautilus' to get a root filemanager window. BUt thats very 'insecure' and could be very dangerous
[07:26] <barnydan> inimesekene,  I'm to new to help any further.  glxgears is how I test when my video driver is instaled correctly and ready to run any xgl files.
[07:26] <bronze> dystopianray, when typing "killall utorrent.exe", I get no error but I can type it many times without the error, so I don't think it "gets killed".
[07:26] <quinton_> dystopianray, it says....
[07:26] <ermac0> all my ssh-session have no color now, what might of happened
[07:26] <inimesekene> barnydan:  ok
[07:26] <barnydan> " I read the ubuntu page on compiling and lookedfor libglib-.20-dev and libgthread-2.0-dev based on that pages advice, but could not find these files in using apt-get. what should my next course of action be?
[07:26] <bronze> dystopianray, in system monitor it says "living dead"
[07:26] <qubix-> Dr_willis, any idea where lol
[07:27] <inimesekene> barnydan: thanks anyway
[07:27] <quinton_> dystopianray, it cannot do it
[07:27] <EnkeleiD> Thanks coctor :)
[07:27] <dystopianray> bronze: try $ wineserver -k
[07:27] <dystopianray> quinton_: why not?
[07:27] <Dr_willis> qubix-,  google :) I perfer irssi to BX these days
[07:27] <EnkeleiD> Thanks doctor :)
[07:27] <bronze> dystopianray, nevermind, I killed it in system monitor.
[07:27] <qubix-> Dr_willis, i just want ansi :)
[07:27] <quinton_> dystopianray, let me try something else real fast
[07:28] <barnydan> inimesekene np,  thought it might get you on the right path.   I'm having troulbe compiling a program today. :|
[07:28] <Dr_willis> qubix-,   when running bx, or irssi under X. i often find that running it in the 'twin' terminal program works better for me.
[07:28] <barnydan> not enough linux Guru's to go round! :)
[07:29] <quinton_> dystopianray, it says cannot open kubuntu.iso
[07:29] <dystopianray> quinton_: have you given the correct path? or are you in the directory the iso is in?
[07:29] <quinton_> dystopianray, that is... wodim kubuntu.iso
[07:30] <quinton_> dystopianray, does not work
[07:30] <WaxyFresh> anyone know of a freenode channel for amd64 users?
[07:30] <dystopianray> quinton_: have you given the correct path or are you in the directory containing that iso?
[07:30] <quinton_> dystopianray, thats the path from the desktop... I renamed it so it would be simpler to type
[07:31] <Nutubuntu> How worried should I be about a kernel Oops that did not lock up the computer, and that (so far) has not happened again? Running Feisty on a dual-core a64.
[07:31] <dystopianray> quinton_: terminals do not defaul to your desktop directory
[07:31] <Nutubuntu> WaxyFresh, maybe #debian-amd64 ?
[07:31] <ermac0> I use to have color enabled in my ssh-sessions, but now its all text, should the env setting be set at xterm or vt100, whatever it is, it has not returned color to ssh connections, I have color when sitting at the console, gnome-terminal
[07:31] <quinton_> dystopianray, thats the only place that file is at... downloaded to desktop
[07:32] <m1r> is there a way to install feisty server without cdrom/floppy drive ?
[07:32] <Dr_willis> ermac0,  you mean 'color' in the ls command output?
[07:32] <dystopianray> quinton_: try $ wodim ~/Desktop/kubuntu.iso
[07:32] <Dr_willis> ermac0,  or somewhere else?
[07:32] <genii> m1r: Does the system have PXE capability?
[07:33] <ermac0> DR_WILLIS, yes i read something about using ls -G, but i used ls and it worked
[07:33] <m1r> yes genii
[07:33] <quinton_> dystopianray, no such file or directory and cannot open
[07:33] <dystopianray> quinton_: you need to find out exactly what directory this file is in
[07:33] <Dr_willis> ermac0,  ls and other programs check the Terminal settings, You could force LS to use colors with the 'ls --color' command I guess..
[07:33] <Dr_willis> ermac0,  or check your TERM setting and set it.
[07:33] <dystopianray> quinton_: or move it to your home directory
[07:33] <genii> m1r: Then you can do a netboot method. But it's really much easier just to stick in a cd just temporarily
[07:34] <Dr_willis> ermac0,  $ echo $TERM       -->  xterm
[07:34] <quinton_> dystopianray, ok... listen... theres a icon on my desktop that says blank cd-rw disk... ok... so I click it and drag and drop kubuntu.iso in there and attempt to write to disk as image...
[07:34] <m1r> genii , laptop and pc without anything but lan :/
[07:34] <ermac0> Dr_willis, i have nothing set
[07:35] <m1r> will try get one cdrom
[07:35] <genii> m1r OK, I'll find the welp page for you on that then
[07:35] <Dr_willis> ermac0,  thats the problem then.  if echo $TERM gives a blank. then the system isent sure what terminal ya got.
[07:35] <quinton_> dystopianray, it says.... Please put a disc, with at least 698.9 MiB free, into the drive.  The following disc types are supported:

[07:35] <ermac0> Dr_willis, winteresting
[07:35] <genii> sp - help not welp
[07:35] <Dr_willis> ermac0,  Note that $TERM is not the same as $term
[07:35] <qubix-> what gnome version comes pre-installed on 7.04
[07:35] <dystopianray> quinton_: is your cd media too small?
[07:35] <quinton_> dystopianray, no... I have tried  a dvd
[07:35] <m1r> problem is laptop is wlan - pc lan, it'll take day :)
[07:35] <ermac0> Dr_willis, ok let me try again
[07:35] <kbrooks> !test
[07:35] <ubotu> failed
[07:35] <quinton_> dystopianray, and the cd i am currently using has 700
[07:35] <paroxysm> i think firefox (java?) is tying up my sound resources, is this a bug?
[07:35] <dystopianray> quinton_: your cds are 700MB cds right?
[07:35] <ermac0> Dr_willis, yea its xterm
[07:35] <vdepizzol> hello. How can I share my internet connection with my notebook (with windows) via eth1?
[07:36] <quinton_> dystopianray, yes
[07:36] <dystopianray> quinton_: ok, so now try wodim
[07:36] <quinton_> dystopianray, i tried it with the cd in
[07:36] <dystopianray> quinton_: move the iso into your home directory and run $ wodim kubuntu.iso
[07:36] <quinton_> dystopianray, same thing
[07:36] <Dr_willis> !info wodim
[07:36] <ubotu> wodim: command line CD/DVD writing tool. In component main, is optional. Version 9:1.1.2-1 (feisty), package size 415 kB, installed size 840 kB
[07:37] <ermac0> Dr_willis, do you know how to force color on a ssh session
[07:37] <quinton_> dystopianray, it acts like its working
[07:37] <ermac0> besides using ls --color
[07:37] <r_rehashed> hi all. installed vmware-server and windows 200 Pro is running fine on it
[07:37] <genii> m1r: Well for what it's worth https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot  has good info on setting up with no floppy/cdrom  But you may want to do something like borrow a usb cdrom or something, less headaches
[07:37] <dystopianray> quinton_: wodim is working?
[07:38] <vdepizzol> hello. How can I share my internet connection with my notebook (with windows) via eth1?
[07:38] <quinton_> dystopianray, do I hit enter or something to make it continue past my last chance option?
[07:38] <r_rehashed> but how do i access the hard disk other than the virtual drive given to the guest os?
[07:38] <Tomatoma> hi
[07:38] <dystopianray> quinton_: i don't remember, it should tell you what you need to do
[07:38] <Devind> hello
[07:38] <Tomatoma> IS anybody could help me with my RT61 wifi card, please ?
[07:38] <quinton_> dystopianray, im doing nothing... it says...
[07:38] <Dr_willis> ermac0,  'forcing color' is not part of ssh. :) you can make an ls alias to 'force' ls to use color. OR you could set the  TERM variable.
[07:39] <black_prince> ...     ?
[07:39] <r_rehashed> anybody here runing vmware-server?
[07:39] <quinton_> dystopianray, Please put a disc, with at least 698.9 MiB free, into the drive.  The following disc types are supported:
[07:39] <quinton_> DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW, CD-R, CD-RW
[07:39] <Dr_willis> r_rehashed,  all the time. :)
[07:39] <quinton_> dystopianray, eh nvm it didnt copy it
[07:39] <dystopianray> quinton_: wodim didn't work?
[07:39] <ermac0> Dr_willis, thanks for your help :)
[07:39] <r_rehashed> Dr_willis: great :D . please help me!
[07:40] <quinton_> dystopianray, it said it was going to but it did not show like any % done
[07:40] <Dr_willis> r_rehashed,  :) ask an answerable question.. and lets see! :)
[07:40] <dystopianray> quinton_: what did it do?
[07:41] <Tomatoma> anyone use a RT61 card ?
[07:41] <quinton_> dystopianray, counted down for a last chance to burn or not... i let it and it just said countdown 0 and didnt do anything
[07:41] <r_rehashed> Dr_willis: how to access the hard disk partitions i have made in Ubuntu on the guest OS (Win 2K)? i am able to access only the virtual disk space created for windows
[07:41] <dystopianray> quinton_: nothing at all happened?
[07:41] <quinton_> dystopianray, yes things happen
[07:41] <dystopianray> quinton_: how long did you wait?
[07:42] <dystopianray> quinton_: what happened?
[07:42] <RobDude> Hi all
[07:42] <TheGK> Hi all
[07:42] <quinton_> dystopianray, it says... last chance to quit (countdown0) starting real write
[07:42] <habeeb> Hello, I'm trying to install Ubuntu, but when the installation starts, my hard disk gets mounted for some reason, and the installation aborts. I'm unmonting it, and it still mounts up when I order it to be installed. Is there a way to forbid its mounting?
[07:42] <Tomatoma> hi
[07:42] <r_rehashed> Dr_willis: i mean i am not able to c my actual hard disk partitions anywhere on windows 2K
[07:42] <quinton_> dystopianray, no screen comes up it just runs that i guess? and the cd pops out when its done?
[07:42] <dystopianray> quinton_: is the cd drive doing anything?
[07:43] <Dr_willis> r_rehashed,  i always 'share' the drives with samba, and let the  vmware os. access them as if thery were on a network.
[07:43] <harushimo> hi everyone, I'm dual booting my computer. I was gonna switch to Ubuntu. would I have a problem to switch the distro
[07:43] <quinton_> dystopianray, the ushuall working noices
[07:43] <dystopianray> quinton_: it is a command line app so there will be no gui
[07:43] <dystopianray> quinton_: so it must be working
[07:43] <quinton_> dystopianray, I hope
[07:43] <dystopianray> quinton_: give it 20 minutes or so to complete
[07:43] <r_rehashed> Dr_willis: ok can u guide me on that? is it shared folders or something?
[07:43] <quinton_> dystopianray, hm... ok then I will wait for it
[07:43] <greedo> hi
[07:44] <quinton_> dystopianray, thank you... I will sit around in the chat and see if this finishes
[07:44] <dystopianray> quinton_: so the cd detection issue earlier must be something wrong with gnome or whatever application was doing the burning
[07:44] <r_rehashed> Dr_willis: how do i connect Ubuntu with the guest os?
[07:44] <greedo> i added myself to a group, how can i apply changes without leaving my session ???
[07:44] <quinton_> dystopianray, no worry, Im installing kubuntu instead...
[07:44] <dystopianray> greedo: su - <username>
[07:44] <Dr_willis> r_rehashed,  install samba, install samba-doc, give the linux user samba passwords with 'sudo smbpasswd -a LINUXUSERNAME' , edit the /etc/samba/smb.conf as needed.. :)
[07:44] <quinton_> dystopianray, seems more stable...
[07:44] <Dr_willis> r_rehashed,  when all else fails read the books included in 'samba-doc' package. :0
[07:44] <dystopianray> quinton_: i prefer kubuntu
[07:44] <greedo> dystopianray: what does the "-" stand for ?
[07:45] <r_rehashed> Dr_willis: Thanks a lot
[07:45] <quinton_> dystopianray, really? cool so im going a right way
[07:45] <johnficca2> does any one know the windows driver for the cisco airnet 350 and if it works with ndiswrapper?
[07:45] <quinton_> dystopianray, well brb im gonna go do some things while that burns
[07:45] <Dr_willis> r_rehashed,  not sure of any other way to let vmware see local hard drives. I think it can be done. but not confogurable with the gui.
[07:45] <Skiguy> hey all - i can't seem to get any sound from ubuntu and the guides i've found online haven't been much help. could someone give me a hand?
[07:45] <dystopianray> greedo: it is short for -l or --login
[07:45] <TheGK> Hi, I have just installed ubuntu and was wondering why the Check for Updates in Firefox is grayed out?
[07:45] <greedo> fuse: failed to exec fusermount: Permission denied   , although i did su -
[07:45] <dystopianray> johnficca2: do you have the windows driver cd for it?
[07:45] <greedo> fuse: failed to exec fusermount: Permission denied   , although i did su - username
[07:46] <r_rehashed> Dr_willis: that's ok, i can manage without a gui. but how to do it?
[07:46] <vdepizzol> hello. How can I share my internet connection with my notebook (with windows) via eth1?
[07:46] <johnficca2> dystopianray: no I don't
[07:46] <lonnie> Does anyone know how to get the start menu to go away automatically after making a selection?  (Mine just stays up there and I have to click to close it again.)
[07:46] <RobDude> I've got Ubuntu 6.10 installed, but I'm having trouble getting online.  I have a Linksys WUSB300N and a NetGear WPN111.  The WPN111 has an over-heating problem and locks up XP and Vista after a few hours of downloading, so I'd rather not use it.  Anyway, Ubuntu doesn't show either listed as a wireless device in the Network settings.  I've installed ndiswrapper and the XP driver for the WUSB300N, and rebooted - but still, it shows no wirele
[07:46] <dystopianray> johnficca2: have you tried searching for a driver on google? or visiting the manufacturer's website?
[07:46] <clara> ola
[07:46] <johnficca2> dystopianray: yes but its a .exe file
[07:47] <Dr_willis> r_rehashed,  Not sure. I saw   an artical  on getting vmware to run a physical drive. and they had to manually make the vmware config foles.
[07:47] <dystopianray> RobDude: did you run this? $ sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[07:47] <spirit_> highlight
[07:47] <spirit_> were?
[07:47] <johnficca2> I think I need an .inf file
[07:47] <r_rehashed> hmm..
[07:47] <Dr_willis> r_rehashed,  there were a few web sites that could let ya construct the vmware files  with a questionare. but ive never done that.
[07:47] <TheGK> Hi, I have just installed ubuntu and was wondering why the Check for Updates in Firefox is grayed out?
[07:47] <dystopianray> johnficca2: you need a .inf and .sys file, they would be inside the .exe file
[07:47] <thesanzo> salut
[07:47] <tbuss> is there a way to change the message that appears after locking a screen
[07:47] <johnficca2> dystopianray: ok cool
[07:48] <dystopianray> johnficca2: you may be able to use wine to install the driver package and grab the resulting driver files, or maybe there is another command that can extract files from the installer
[07:48] <qubix-> dr_loaf,  ignore that lol, i had  a query window open
[07:48] <dystopianray> johnficca2: maybe cabextract or unzip will work on it
[07:48] <swooney> hey everyone, i installed glib 2.9.6, apparently over 2.12.11, and something told me i need to remove the old one so it isn't confused
[07:48] <r_rehashed> Dr_willis: not sure i want to do that...  does using samba reduce the speed in accessing the local drives?
[07:48] <swooney> how do i go about doing that?
[07:48] <thesanzo> fuck ^^
[07:48] <quinton_> dystopianray, hey
[07:48] <thesanzo> suck & sex
[07:48] <johnficca2> dystopianray: thank you
[07:48] <dystopianray> quinton_: the cd has finished?
[07:48] <PriceChild> !ohmy | thesanzo
[07:48] <ubotu> thesanzo: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[07:48] <quinton_> dystopianray, yeah
[07:48] <greedo> dystopianray: i added myself to the fuse group, then did su - <username> but groups |grep -c fuse returns 0
[07:49] <thesanzo> quoi pas compris
[07:49] <quinton_> dystopianray, it doesnt LOOK like the cd has any writing in it
[07:49] <quinton_> dystopianray, but i will try it... so brb and thank you
[07:49] <RobDude> dystopianray:  No.  I ran 'sudo ndiswrapper -i filename.inf' then 'sudo ndiswrapper -m' then added 'ndiswrapper' on a new line in '/etc/modules' and rebooted.  When I do 'sudo ndiswrapper -l' it lists the driver
[07:49] <dystopianray> quinton_: it would have filled almost the entire cd, it was a large iso
[07:49] <Dr_willis> r_rehashed,  a little of course.
[07:49] <johnficca2> dystopianray: do you know of a good card that works out of the box on linux with wpa
[07:49] <dystopianray> johnficca2: anything with intel or atheros chipsets
[07:49] <magnetron> !hardware | johnficca2
[07:49] <ubotu> johnficca2: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[07:50] <Dr_willis> r_rehashed,  but on a local machine.. it would be very fast.  virtual network.
[07:50] <johnficca2> ubotu: dosen't give good info
[07:50] <swooney> how do i get a list of all installed packages?
[07:50] <PriceChild> johnficca2, then improve it for us?
[07:50] <johnficca2> ubotu: a lot of people don't even say if it work with wpa
[07:50] <TheGK> Hi, I have just installed ubuntu and was wondering why the Check for Updates in Firefox is grayed out?
[07:50] <PriceChild> !clone | swooney
[07:50] <ubotu> swooney: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type  dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages , move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type  sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade  - See also !automate
[07:51] <swooney> thanks PriceChild
[07:51] <miramana> hello, is it possible to have 2 ISOs in apt sources? it is a laptop, so it would be convinient to have both ubuntu-dvd and kubuntu-dvd plugged in since connectivity is not always avail?
[07:51] <r_rehashed> Dr_willis: there is this option of using a virtual network with ubuntu, in the settings. should i use that? right now i am using NAT
[07:51] <PriceChild> johnficca2, ubotu is a BOT... uBOTu :)
[07:51] <PurpZeY_> TheGK: If you are not connected to the internet it would be grayed out
[07:51] <johnficca2> dystopianray: I thought the atheros chitset was a bad thing
[07:51] <tbuss> is there a way to change the login window for a locked screen?
[07:51] <TheGK> Ok,, but I am chatting to you, so I must be connect to the internet
[07:52] <dystopianray> johnficca2: no it is great, uses the madwifi driver
[07:52] <dystopianray> johnficca2: will work out of the box
[07:52] <johnficca2> dystopianray: cool
[07:52] <PurpZeY_> TheGK: What happens if you click on it?
[07:52] <thesanzo> sorry :(
[07:52] <dystopianray> johnficca2: but I do not know of any specific cards using that chipset
[07:52] <thesanzo> i am hacked
[07:52] <thesanzo> et alors ?

[07:54] <PriceChild> barnydan, what's broken?
[07:54] <quinton_> dystopianray, wodim BLAH.iso right?
[07:54] <russe11> PriceChild, purpZeY: I've tried there and nobody talks. Can I please try here?
[07:54] <dystopianray> quinton_: that's right, assuming blah.iso is the correct path
[07:54] <PriceChild> russe11, well be patient ;)
[07:54] <dystopianray> quinton_: did the cd get burned correctly?
[07:55] <quinton_> dystopianray, Heh heh it worked... I just well uhm... (feels stupid) downloaded the wrong bit

[07:55] <dredhammer> which is the better backend for totem xine or gstreamer?
[07:55] <PurpZeY_> TheGK: It's possible, but I thought that if that is the case, it goes away...But, atm I have updates I need...So I couldn't say...Did you just install
[07:55] <lom> stupid people...........
[07:55] <PriceChild> russe11, try again, different time, different people.
[07:55] <PurpZeY_> pr4bh: Add to panel "System notifications" or something
[07:55] <dystopianray> dredhammer: i prefer xine myself, but I do not know how well it works with totem specifically
[07:55] <pr4bh> cheers mate
[07:56] <Knowledge> has anyone here installed ubuntu on a PS3?
[07:56] <ShaneN> Is Feisty Fawn the newest version of ubuntu?
[07:56] <PriceChild> !best | dredhammer
[07:56] <ubotu> dredhammer: 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.
[07:56] <TheGK> PurpZeY_: No, I downloaded the Appliance from VMWare
[07:56] <dystopianray> ShaneN: yes
[07:56] <ShaneN> dynacrylic: Thanks
[07:56] <russe11> PriceChild, I did :)
[07:56] <johnficca2> dystopianray: does your card work with b and g?
[07:56] <PriceChild> barnydan, are you compiling something else then?
[07:56] <TheGK> PurpZeY_: Other network apps seems ok
[07:56] <TheGK> PurpZeY_: Firefox works fine also
[07:56] <PriceChild> barnydan, because if so and those are build deps... you'll need the packages libgthread.... etc.
[07:56] <PurpZeY_> TheGK: I know nothing about VMWare so, I am lost on you there...You probably just don't need updates.
[07:56] <dystopianray> johnficca2: it is an 'abg' card, and supports a 108mbps turbo mode
[07:57] <TheGK> PurpZeY_: Ok, thanks for the effort ;D
[07:57] <miramana> hello, is it possible to have 2 ISOs in apt sources? it is a laptop, so it would be convinient to have both ubuntu-dvd and kubuntu-dvd plugged in since connectivity is not always avail?
[07:57] <PurpZeY_> miramana: The CDs are exactly the same except for the desktop package
[07:58] <Knowledge> ok....it finally booted....that's od
[07:58] <Knowledge> d
[07:58] <GreenJelly> Hey, Im triing to partition the disk, and I do a Guided Paartition and it only sets up 2 drives,, swapp and /  there is no root... was this done on purpose
[07:58] <johnficca2> dystopianray: kick ass
[07:58] <PriceChild> miramana, yeah you could mount the iso... then add it using apt-cdrom or system > admin > software sources
[07:58] <PriceChild> miramana, however they both contani the same ;)
[07:58] <barnydan> PriceChild yes I'm trying to run ./configure and I get those as errors "missing files".   I've tried apt-get libgthread-2.0-dev and it didn't find anything.  is there some place I can download them?
[07:58] <PriceChild> miramana, they just install different things during instillation
[07:58] <PriceChild> barnydan, ok cool... one second
[07:58] <dystopianray> johnficca2: i got mine on ebay second hand very cheaply
[07:58] <Flannel> miramana: If you do have two, you'll most likely want to have only one disabled at a time.  Or things will complain about not seeing the other.
[07:58] <dystopianray> johnficca2: if you google the model number you'll find plenty of info
[07:58] <squee_> How do I reset the default keyring password if I dont know it?
[07:58] <dystopianray> johnficca2: it is a pcmcia card though so it is only for laptops

[07:59] <squee_> GreenJelly: not my username password, the keyring password for gnome
[07:59] <Knowledge> it's weird cause the live boot hangs
[08:00] <Knowledge> and doesn't actually boot
[08:00] <Lunar_Lamp> I'm installing ubuntu server, but it seems to have stalled at 91% complete "Installing the kernel - retrieving and installing linux-server" - any suggestions?
[08:00] <GreenJelly> Hey, Im triing to partition the disk, and I do a Guided Paartition and it only sets up 2 drives,, swapp and / there is no root... was this done on purposev
[08:00] <Lunar_Lamp> GreenJelly, "/" is the root partition :-)
[08:00] <dystopianray> GreenJelly: / is root
[08:00] <squee_> Lunar_Lamp: possibly try another disk or a place with a more reliable connection
[08:00] <ramza3> anybody know what ubuntu is arranging my icons on the desktop for me.  I cant keep them in place
[08:01] <squee_> How do I reset the default keyring password for gnome if I dont know it?
[08:01] <Lunar_Lamp> squee_, I'm not installing via network, the disk seems fine also :-/
[08:01] <dystopianray> GreenJelly: oh, you mean the 'root' account? yes this is done on purpose, use sudo
[08:01] <PriceChild> squee_, you would have set it the first time you used the keyring
[08:01] <GreenJelly>  most distro suggest 3 partitions
[08:01] <squee_> Lunar_Lamp: I've had them be touchy about the disks, i highly reccomend trying another one
[08:01] <dystopianray> GreenJelly: you are free to create as many partitions as you want during the install
[08:01] <Lunar_Lamp> squee_, I'll have a go I guess :-)
[08:01] <Flannel> GreenJelly: If anything, you'd want a /home, but you can create as many as you'd like.  /boot on it's own might also be a good choice
[08:02] <ashish> I am very greatfull to you for providing me a UBUNTU CD of 7.04 version. A very thank you to all members of ubuntu group.
[08:02] <CVirus> What is the name of the apache2 user ?
[08:02] <squee_> PriceChild: It's for my mom's laptop, she set the keyring password and can't remember it.  I just had to help her reset her username password
[08:02] <Flannel> CVirus: www-data
[08:02] <CVirus> Flannel: thanks
[08:02] <b0ha> what is command for extracting zip files?
[08:02] <ashish> I am very greatfull to you for providing me a UBUNTU CD of 7.04 version. A very thank you to all members of ubuntu group.
[08:03] <dystopianray> b0ha: unzip
[08:03] <PriceChild> No problem ashish
[08:03] <vox754> ashish, thank you, but don't repeat
[08:03] <b0ha> tnx
[08:03] <dystopianray> ashish: recommend it to all your friends
[08:03] <GreenJelly> Flannel: I dont understand why they sert up 3 partitions, other then it seems to be that they use ext 3 and ext 2 on one device
[08:03] <dystopianray> GreenJelly: they probably have a separate /boot that is ext2
[08:04] <aarcane> are all the restricted drivers installed on a machine by default ?
[08:04] <Flannel> GreenJelly: there's no reason to have /root on it's own.  But you're free to set it up however you'd like.
[08:04] <kane77> hi, can I change file owner of file on ftp? with what program/command?
[08:04] <PriceChild> aarcane, no
[08:04] <aarcane> are all the wifi drivers installed on a machine by default?  (excluding restricted of course)
[08:04] <vox754> GreenJelly, if you create one for /boot make sure it is ext2 and 100 MB
[08:04] <ashish> kanhaiya_kk:how r u
[08:04] <ghostview> Hi all, I've install ubuntu 7.04 in live version, then I saw that PCMCIA works in wi-fi mode, so I decided to install the alternate, but at the end my wireless PCMCIA doesn't word at all, there a driver I miss to install? please someone could help me in somehow? tnx
[08:04] <squee_> vox754: Why ext2?
[08:04] <kanhaiya_kk> ashish: you gaadav
[08:05] <vox754> squee_, the journal needs at least like 50 MB, so creating it ext3 would be dumb because the journal would take most of your space. With ext2 you can create really small partitions, like 1 cylinder which is like 7 MB.
[08:06] <squee_> vox754: alright that would make sense
[08:06] <adaptr> like
[08:06] <dredhammer> can gstreamer handle the use of compiz or beryl?
[08:06] <adaptr> like, like
[08:06] <squee_> dredhammer: gstreamer can still play media while compiz/beryl is running if that is what you mean
[08:06] <PriceChild> adaptr, okease don't
[08:06] <PriceChild> *please
[08:07] <dredhammer> hmmm i just replaced xine for gstreamer
[08:07] <adaptr> why, you don't likelikelike ?
[08:07] <dredhammer> and all i see is a black screen
[08:07] <dystopianray> dredhammer: depending on your video card the video may turn blue when underneath sort of affect, like a shadow or whatever
[08:07] <dystopianray> dredhammer: 'any sort of effect' i mean
[08:07] <dredhammer> wheres the wiki for setting up totem with gstreamer correctly?
[08:07] <dredhammer> i dropped back into metacity and it shows
[08:07] <dredhammer> but not in beryl
[08:08] <dystopianray> dredhammer: what video card do you have?
[08:08] <Skiguy> okay. seriously strange sound problem. my laptop is docked, yet ubuntu still wants to use the crappy onboard speakers instead of going through my external ones which are plugged into the dock - anyone have any ideas?
[08:08] <dredhammer> the bane of linux an ATIX850

[08:08] <astroraptor> is there a way to install Ubuntu from a hard drive? I downloaded the alternate ISO (I'm out of CD's)
[08:08] <dredhammer> open source drivers
[08:09] <timposey> Can anyone give me any pointers on scanner or HP scanjet... I'm just wondering what is the best scanner to use with ubuntu

[08:10] <Knowledge> Anyone care to help with a PS3 install?
[08:10] <PriceChild> Knowledge, you've got the ps3 install disc right?
[08:10] <Knowledge> PriceChild: yeah, I do, but it hangs during the live boot
[08:11] <hamedv90> hi, please support me! .. default password for root in Ubuntu 7.04 ??!
[08:11] <TheGK> mmm, My mouseweel does not work in the VMWare appliance I downloaded. Does anybody have a solution for me please?
[08:11] <tritium> !rootsudo | hamedv90
[08:11] <ubotu> hamedv90: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[08:11] <bronze> hamedv90, your userpassword
[08:11] <vox754> Oh, well. I guess PS3 is not an official supported architecture.
[08:11] <kane77> hamedv90, none :) root account is disabled
[08:11] <kane77> hamedv90, if you want to set it do "sudo passwd"
[08:11] <Knowledge> it seems like it's going to boot and BAMM! it just hangs...
[08:11] <hamedv90> kane77: no !
[08:12] <tritium> hamedv90: yes, it is disabled
[08:12] <ferronica> Media monkey is available for linux ???
[08:12] <valdas> Is it possible to update or whatever from 7.04 amd64 to 7.04 i386?
[08:12] <kane77> hamedv90, believe me it is ;)
[08:12] <dystopianray> valdas: no it is not
[08:12] <tritium> no, valdas
[08:12] <valdas> ok then.
[08:13] <genii> tritium Actually there is a way but it's convoluted
[08:13] <tritium> genii: and easier simply to reinstall
[08:13] <genii> yes
[08:14] <tomer> hi all
[08:15] <tomer> where can i find the source for libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3
[08:15] <tomer> ??
[08:15] <Skiguy> how do I change the output card for ubuntu sound?
[08:15] <scorp123> Hi all ... question for the gurus: for the next few months I will have to work in a network which is *seriously* restricted. SSH to the outside doesn't work. Only outbound traffic that is allowed is HTTP and HTTPS for as long as I don't access foreign web sites (anything outside top-level domain *.ch is blocked!) .... Does anyone know a *SAFE* way by which I could access my machines at home via e.g. HTTPS? I was thinking of VNC, but
[08:15] <scorp123> VNC is pretty far away from being safe ....
[08:15] <b0ha> !ubutu > boha
[08:15] <Dr_willis> vnc through a ssh tunnle perhaps.
[08:15] <Dr_willis> Not sure how FreeNX compares security wise
[08:15] <scorp123> Dr_willis: SSH is blocked
[08:16] <b0ha> !ubotu > boha
[08:16] <tritium> tomer: dpkg -S <path-to-filename> to find out the package name.  Then, sudo apt-get source <packagename>
[08:16] <Dr_willis> scorp123,  sounds like the company dosent want you to get in... charge them extra then for the overtime.
[08:16] <b0ha> !ubotu > b0ha
[08:16] <Dr_willis> :)
[08:16] <dystopianray> scorp123: you could setup a http tunnel and ssh through that, but if only *.ch is allowed, you'll need a *.cb domain pointing to your home server
[08:16] <tritium> b0ha: please note that you can query ubotu in private
[08:16] <tomer> tritium: i cant. im using hoary hedgehog so none of the repositories work
[08:16] <PriceChild> b0ha, please don't spam/abuse the bot...
[08:16] <scorp123> Dr_willis: Getting in is not the problem, but getting out is .... :-)
[08:16] <PriceChild> tritium, (it tells you when you do that to yourself ;) )
[08:16] <xxl3w> i'm having resolutions problems with my ATI radeon 9600 SE/Viewsonic 19" widescreen. I'm trying to display in 1440x900, but after an install it was displaying in 1024x800. I added "1440x900" after "1024x800" in xorg.conf and rebooted
[08:16] <tomer> id like to just build the old  fashioned way
[08:16] <WaxyFresh> is there a way to benchmark my computers performance?
[08:16] <Dr_willis> actually you can set up your home server to ssh on a different port.
[08:16] <dystopianray> scorp123: you'll need a *.ch domain pointing home i mean
[08:16] <xxl3w> once i rebooted, the screen resolution was set to 1400x900, but it wasn't it was more like 1400x1200. well, i set it to 1024x800, then back to 1440x900 and it worked fine
[08:17] <b0ha> sorry i was just testing
[08:17] <xxl3w> is there anyway to fix this where when i boot, it displays in 1400x900, instead of 1440x1200?
[08:17] <tomer> get the sources and build like in the good old times
[08:17] <tritium> PriceChild: hmm?
[08:17] <b0ha> if there are any commands for him or something
[08:17] <tomer> before all this apt-get stuff existed
[08:17] <PriceChild> tritium, if you do | or > to yourself then it pms you telling you not to :P
[08:17] <tritium> PriceChild: :)
[08:17] <dystopianray> scorp123: i have setup http tunnels before, in order to ssh out from the university i attend
[08:17] <ferronica> Media monkey is available for linux ???
[08:17] <scorp123> dystopianray: SSH over HTTP Tunnel? Sounds like fun. Do you have a link about this?
[08:17] <Dr_willis> ferronica,  never heard of it.
[08:17] <dystopianray> scorp123: http://sebsauvage.net/punching/
[08:17] <tritium> tomer: ah, have you tried getting it from packages.ubuntu.com?  Why are you still using hoary?
[08:18] <John`> is there a way in ubuntu that can do readyboost with flash drive like vista?
[08:18] <tomer> tritium: cause i have a lot of software on it and i dont feel like having to reinstall everything
[08:18] <tomer> just to get an upgrade of the OS
[08:18] <dystopianray> John`: create a swap partition on the flash drive and enable it with 'swapon'
[08:18] <tomer> which i dont need
[08:18] <ferronica> Media Monkey for windows
[08:18] <scorp123> dystopianray: thanks, I will take a look if this helps .... I am going nuts there. Can't even read my mails there .... :-)
[08:18] <tritium> tomer: you could do an upgrade in-place
[08:18] <ferronica> Media Monkey for windows  for song
[08:18] <WaxyFresh> scorp123: if you search a while on democracy player thre a video on it
[08:19] <dystopianray> scorp123: all you need is access via http to a server that you control, i have done it before it is pretty easy
[08:19] <John`> what is swapon?
[08:19] <tomer> tritium: really? how? none of my apt-get stuff is working anymore cause the hoary folders have been phased out i think
[08:19] <John`> and how do i create a swap partition on it
[08:19] <dystopianray> John`: the command that enables a swap partition
[08:19] <tritium> tomer: also, dpkg has --get-selections and --set-selections which can help you migrate package lists from one machine or install to another
[08:19] <kaosbunny> is it possible to downgrade php5 to 5.1.2 in fiesty (7.04) once you've upgraded it? are the 5.1.2 packages available for fiesty?
[08:19] <tomer> tritium: it keeps getting 404
[08:19] <John`> on flash drive
[08:19] <tritium> !upgrade > tomer
[08:19] <dystopianray> John`: 'mkswap' creates a swap partition
[08:20] <scorp123> dystopianray: well, getting a server that I control is easy, but I would like it to be safe ... I've seen people being daft enough to open VNC-Http (port 58xx) towards the internet ... Ouch. Bad idea :-)
[08:20] <tritium> tomer: you'll have to upgrade from one release to the next (i.e. you can't go straight from hoary to feisty)
[08:20] <dystopianray> scorp123: you tunnel all your traffic over ssh, the ssh is tunneled over http, so it should be very secure
[08:21] <interfear> can k3b burn UIF files?
[08:21] <IceLink> hey, can anyone help me with installing apache? ~.~
[08:21] <scorp123> dystopianray: yeah, reading the docs .... sounds pretty much like what I need :-)
[08:21] <piti> Hi everyone. I've just put ubuntu on my desktop, I have encountered few problems, exept about fonts : using ati driver (on a x300se) they don't look good
[08:21] <tritium> tomer: if it's just a matter of wanting the same packages installed, you could use dpkg --get-selections, save the output, reinstall, and then use --set-selections
[08:22] <kaosbunny> how come the php5-imap package is not up to date with all the other php5-* packages?
[08:22] <IceLink> i did apt-get apache, php4 & 5, mysql, phpmyadmin and set some chmods, now, i wrote http://pastebin.com/942059 into my /etc/apache2/httpd.conf but i can call localhost like before without having no permission
[08:22] <dystopianray> interfear: try installing 'magiciso' in wine and using that to convert it to a regular iso, uif is a magiciso specific format
[08:23] <compengi> was there any update lately this day?
[08:24] <xxl3w> i thought gdm pulled the first resolution from the modes part of xorg.conf?
[08:24] <PurpZeY_> compengi: There are updates every few days, at least.
[08:25] <milllmannn> should i use rsa or dsa ssh keys?
[08:25] <scorp123> milllmannn: doesn't really matter ... I use both :)
[08:25] <dystopianray> xxl3w: you may need to set a VertRefresh and HorizSync options in your xorg.conf
[08:25] <xxl3w> i have a flatscreen LCD
[08:25] <xxl3w> i don't need refresh rates, do i?
[08:26] <compengi> because i logged out then in and got an update notifier saying: you got 3 updates, linux restricted modules | linux restricted modules 2.6.20-16-generic | nvidia-glx
[08:26] <xxl3w> i don't even understand where it's pulling "1440x1200". I don't even have that resolution in my xorg.conf
[08:26] <tritium> compengi: not from today.  Perhaps you've not updated lately?
[08:26] <compengi> tritium, i did
[08:27] <xxl3w> basically, it didn't detect ANY of my resolutions (other than 1024x800, 800x600, etc"
[08:27] <hippie> will ubuntu run on a pentium 1 166MMX system with 32MB ram? only thing I want to run on it is xmms, streamtuner and wireless lan.... any suggestiunes?
[08:27] <dystopianray> compengi: those updates are about a week old iirc
[08:27] <compengi> tritium, i'm always on
[08:27] <xxl3w> i had to manually enter 1440x900
[08:27] <ShaneN> When doing dist-upgrade, are you supposed to upgrade through each version or can you jump straight from say, dapper, to feisty?
[08:27] <xxl3w> should i just do a dpkg-reconfigure?
[08:27] <tritium> well, maybe the mirrors you're using don't update as quickly
[08:27] <dystopianray> hippie: maybe try xubuntu and you'll need to use the alternate install cd
[08:27] <xxl3w> hippie; i'd suggest debian net install
[08:27] <compengi> dystopianray, i remember those updates but the notifier went again on asking
[08:27] <tritium> xxl3w: you can, or add the resolution you want by editing your xorg.conf
[08:28] <xxl3w> i had a huge problem installing ubuntu,xubuntu on a AMD 350
[08:28] <xxl3w> trit; i know that
[08:28] <dystopianray> xxl3w: try running this: $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[08:28] <xxl3w> but GDM is displaying in a resolution that's not even in xorg.conf
[08:28] <VIrUZ__> does GLX compiz slow games down ?
[08:28] <compengi> dystopianray, i logged out then in and it popped out
[08:28] <PurpZeY_> VIrUZ__: Yes. Generally speaking, depending on your setup I can.
[08:28] <PurpZeY_> it*
[08:28] <smultron_> anyone know how to mount an AirDisk from Apple's Airport Extreme?
[08:29] <VIrUZ__> COMPIZ sucks
[08:29] <xxl3w> dyst; i'll try that when i get home
[08:29] <PurpZeY_> VIrUZ__: So, turn it off.
[08:29] <xxl3w> what does that exactly do?
[08:30] <RoC_MasterMind> I am an Ubuntu user (and thus GNOME), but to make simple html photo galleries I used to just click Tools/Create Thumbnail gallery in Konqueror....I installed Konquerorer...but this menu item isn't there....why is that?
[08:30] <hippie> ok.. I just want a  basic GUI on this system since it will only be used for streaming radio stations... its an old IBM laptop thats really QUIET... when all i want to do is listen to a radio station online I dont want to have to crank it up real loud because of the fan/HDD noise in my desktop
[08:30] <dystopianray> xxl3w: brief step-by-step X configuration, it may fix your issues
[08:30] <xxl3w> i told my wife to reboot and she said it's displaying fine in gnome, just GDM is still screwed
[08:31] <dystopianray> RoC_MasterMind: it is most likely from another package and is not a standard konqueror feature
[08:31] <xxl3w> well, not screwed, just displaying 1440x1200
[08:31] <dystopianray> RoC_MasterMind: there may be a package for konq addons or similar
[08:31] <xxl3w> man, i hate working when i start trying to fix something at lunch!
[08:31] <RoC_MasterMind> dystopianray, I see...any ideas of any packages I could try to install to get it?
[08:31] <dystopianray> RoC_MasterMind: try konq-plugins
[08:32] <RoC_MasterMind> OK.
[08:33] <xxl3w> even though i'm having this video problem. ubuntu has way less install problems than winXP
[08:33] <RobDude> I tried '$ sudo modprobe ndiswrapper' but still no luck.  Is it possible that my LinkSys WUSB300N simply will not work with Ubuntu or am I just missing something?
[08:33] <RoC_MasterMind> dystopianray, that's a few thuings, but not thumbnail gallery
[08:34] <xxl3w> i did a fresh install of winXP, ran the updates, and it disabled my network connection service
[08:34] <dystopianray> RoC_MasterMind: hrrm maybe it comes with one of the kde image viewers, like gwenview perhaps
[08:34] <xxl3w> actually, it just replaced some dll files and didn't replace other and for some reaosn the dll files have to be the same version to work together
[08:34] <compengi> dystopianray, so i got this installed last time
[08:35] <genii> I'm pretty sure the Iarport Extreme and Airdisk use some Orinoco driver
[08:35] <compengi> dystopianray, what should i do? leave it?
[08:35] <genii> bleh typos
[08:35] <dystopianray> compengi: well I don't think there can be any harm from installing them, even if it is installing them again
[08:35] <RoC_MasterMind> I'll try kdeaddons dystopianray
[08:35] <bsm> hi, is the edgy linux-image-2.6.17-10-generic kernel SMP capable?
[08:36] <bsm> I ask because some default ubuntu kernel wasn't
[08:36] <TheGK> can one use a mouse-wheel in ubuntu?
[08:36] <dystopianray> bsm: the default kernel is smp capable
[08:36] <bsm> dystopianray: in edgy?
[08:37] <GreenJelly> bsm where did you get the generic kernel copy?
[08:37] <dystopianray> bsm: oh sorry, hrrm i'm not sure about edgy, i'd assume that it is also smp capable
[08:37] <CPF_> Hi guys, got question. aclocal doesn't exist on my box (as well as automake and those kind of programs) what do I run to get it in there?
[08:37] <dystopianray> bsm: grep the kernel config for CONFIG_SMP
[08:37] <bsm> I'm not running it ATM
[08:38] <bsm> I will try to install it with my feisty to see if it has my Input/ouput error :)
[08:38] <bsm> GreenJelly: packages.ubuntu.com
[08:38] <bsm> its from security reps
[08:38] <bsm> (i guess :D )
[08:38] <CPF_> Need help getting aclocal on my box... Anyone?

[08:39] <RobDude> Can someone recommend a cheap, external/usb wireless network adapter that will 'just work' with Ubuntu?
[08:40] <dystopianray> RobDude: Anything with a Zydas chipset should work great
[08:40] <orbisvicis> !msg ubotu
[08:40] <GenghisKhan> RobDude: dlink has got ones which use the rt2570 driver
[08:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about msg ubotu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:40] <RoC_MasterMind> Neither "kdeaddons" nor "gwenview" added the "Create Thumbnail Gallery" to Konqueror on Ubuntu....It's a really simple way to make them....
[08:40] <shnastybiznastic> I'm not sure this is the right place to ask, but I'm having trouble invoking xterm to use a larger font size.  I use the -fs flag but nothing changes (that is to say, I get a default xterm)
[08:40] <RoC_MasterMind> RobDude, desktop or laptop?
[08:41] <confuse_david> hi
[08:41] <zYe1> help setting my comp to static IP
[08:41] <shnastybiznastic> I'm running fiesty
[08:41] <zYe1> im on a linksys router if that makes any difference
[08:41] <zYe1> running feisty
[08:41] <Nutubuntu> Are there other directory and file browsers like mlist and clist (which in turn are like Vernon Buerg's old MSDOS program, List)? I miss that -- probably the only thing I miss about MSDOS
[08:41] <RoC_MasterMind> zYe1, System -> Administration -> Networking
[08:42] <shnastybiznastic> zYe1: Right click on the network connection tray icon
[08:42] <marcel> I have just installed some packages with synaptic, but I cannot see them anywhere.
[08:42] <RobDude> RoC_MasterMind:  Desktop
[08:42] <shnastybiznastic> he said it better than I would have
[08:42] <Flannel> zYe1: edit /etc/network/interfaces  : https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/server/C/network-configuration.html
[08:42] <RoC_MasterMind> Nutubuntu, there is one I use, it's called "mc", Midnight Commander......I also found one on accident that looks real similiar but is only monochome green but seems to be a clone...it's called "git"...i'd recommend you check out "mc"
[08:42] <RobDude> Thanks dystopianray / GenghisKhan - I'll take alook
[08:43] <tobias___> Hello ubuntu people, how do I upgrade from 6.10 to 7.04 from command line?
[08:43] <RoC_MasterMind> !upgrade
[08:43] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[08:43] <tobias___> Could you please give me the command, I'm in irssi now :)
[08:44] <xnix> anyone know of a good doc that explains how to make a .deb of a python script
[08:44] <Nutubuntu> t/y RoC_MasterMind - I had forgotten about mc, and git is new to me. I had been using mlist and somehow broke it, may try to compile it again and see if it'll be any happier ... t/y again
[08:44] <GenghisKhan> tobias___: edit your sources.list and then aptitude update && aptitude dist-upgrade
[08:44] <tobias___> thanks GenghisKhan
[08:45] <RoC_MasterMind> tobias___, it seems the GUI upgrade manager is the recommended way...for some reason the CLI method is not recommended and can break things, but here are your commands: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FeistyUpgradesManual
[08:45] <skarface> how can I make line-in audible at all times?
[08:45] <RoC_MasterMind> it is more than 1
[08:45] <calder_1> I have a problem with a EDIMAX EW-7128G card, pls hlp
[08:45] <GenghisKhan> tobias___: beware of unresolved dependencies
[08:45] <shnastybiznastic> tobias___: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/UpgradingFromFeisty?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=upgrade&titlesearch=Titles
[08:45] <GenghisKhan> RoC_MasterMind: it isn't recommended beacause apt/aptitude won't handle automagically all the dependencies
[08:45] <compengi> hi gnomefreak
[08:46] <Flannel> tobias___: Make sure you have ubuntu-standard, ubuntu-minimal, and ubuntu-desktop (if you're using ubuntu GUI, kubuntu-desktop, xubuntu-desktop as well, if youre using those)
[08:46] <goban> if i get openvz hosting do i shill have ssh access? zen lists console under features but vz doenst
[08:46] <Flannel> tobias___: oh, and your kernel metapackge (linux-generic)
[08:46] <GenghisKhan> recently i did an upgrade from LTS to feisty with aptitude dist-upgrade, and I had to fix manually some dependencies
[08:46] <marcel> I cannot find programs that I have just installed with synaptic
[08:46] <calder_1> <I have a problem with a EDIMAX EW-7128G card, pls hlp> card is installed, module rt61 is loaded, and it is not working
[08:46] <RoC_MasterMind> I am an Ubuntu user (and thus GNOME), but to make simple html photo galleries I used to just click Tools/Create Thumbnail gallery in Konqueror....I installed Konquerorer...but this menu item isn't there....why is that?   I also installed "kdeaddons" and "gwenview" to see if those would add the functionality.
[08:46] <John`> what do they mean by "Volume is schedule for check. Please boot into Windows TWICE"
[08:46] <Flannel> GenghisKhan: That's not aptitudes fault.  That's you doing an unsupported upgrade

[08:48] <GenghisKhan> Flannel: i think it's just that aptitude has its own limitations. ideally it should handle any kind of upgrade

[08:48] <xroads42> hi
[08:48] <calder_1> /+/I have a problem with a EDIMAX EW-7128G card, pls hlp/+/ card is installed, I was searching forums and manuals, I am beginer, everything seems to be ok. but not working
[08:48] <Flannel> GenghisKhan: no.  6.06 -> 7.04 doesn't have the proper transitional packages to do the upgrade.  Aptitude has just as much dependency handling as update-maanger.
[08:48] <mmorpgmad> anyone know of any good  mmorpg games
[08:48] <compengi> gnomefreak, i got an interesting question, like 1 week ago there was a linux restricted modules update with the new kernel and nvidia-glx. today i logged out then logged in and got a notice from update notifier giving me same updates that i have already updated and installed what should i do? and should i update of leave it? and if it's risky to update again?
[08:48] <xroads42> i have a little v4l problem. Yesterday i installed v4l-49f4930da685. my hvr 1300 remote is now working (hooray) but kaffeine cant tune any channels anymore... any ideas what i can check to find out what is not working?
[08:48] <RoC_MasterMind> jrib, I'm in F-Spot, where is this functionality?
[08:49] <xroads42> system is: ubuntu 7.04, kernel: 2.6.20-16-generic ....
[08:49] <shnastybiznastic> calder_1: what is the problem?
[08:49] <jrib> RoC_MasterMind: file -> export -> web gallery
[08:49] <GenghisKhan> Flannel: then why is upgrading with aptitude discouraged with newer releases?
[08:49] <RoC_MasterMind> ahh...duh...thanks jrib
[08:50] <Flannel> GenghisKhan: because update-manager does stuff before the upgrade (metapackages, repositories, etc) automatically.
[08:50] <GenghisKhan> Flannel: ok, thanks for the info
[08:50] <zYe1> what does "in this case, you will need to specify your DNS servers manually in /etc/resolv.conf" mean?
[08:50] <calder_1> shnastybiznastic; card seems to be installed, module rt61 loaded, but when I try to configure it by gnome menager or something like that, its glowing red, not green.
[08:51] <zYe1> i am setting up a static ip btw.
[08:51] <calder_1> I'm from pl so sory for my english

[08:53] <marcel> I have installed some packages with synaptic, and now I cannot find them? Where are they installed?
[08:53] <zYe1> ok m4rk, the DNS is the translator for hosts and ip's
[08:54] <djm62> marcel: what packages is it?
[08:54] <zYe1> m4rk, but what should i use for the dns server?
[08:54] <Nutubuntu> How worried should I be about a kernel Oops that did not lock up the computer, and that (so far) has not happened again? Running Feisty on a dual-core a64.
[08:55] <shnastybiznastic> How do I set the font size when invoking an xterm?
[08:55] <marcel> one of them was 3D chess
[08:55] <calder_1> thx, bye
[08:56] <djm62> marcel: in general, you can find out which files were installed by finding the package in synaptic, right-clicking on the name and selecting properties - then going to the installed files tab
[08:56] <Lorne_Kun> ok this is making my brain hurt >.>
[08:56] <marcel> how about  application - games - how come it doesn't show up?
[08:56] <djm62> marcel: I would expect 3d chess to be in the games menu in gnome, but I couldn't swear to it
[08:57] <shnastybiznastic> marcel: you may need to enable more repos
[08:57] <jeremysan> hi all, im trying to follow the NDISwrapper installation wiki, (http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/joomla/index.php?/component/option,com_openwiki/Itemid,33/id,installation/) and the first thing it says is "You need a recent kernel at, least 2.6.6 or 2.4.26"  can somebody explain to me what that means and how I can acoomplish/make sure I have that done?
[08:57] <Lorne_Kun> I cant take ownership of a volume because it says that there is no such file or directly.
[08:57] <Lorne_Kun> er directory even
[08:57] <shnastybiznastic> jeremysan: uname -r
[08:57] <marcel> ow do I enable more repitories?
[08:57] <Flannel> jeremysan: don't use that wiki.  ndiswrapper is in the repositories.  Just install the deb file
[08:57] <Lorne_Kun> i think its because theres a space in the name
[08:57] <marcel> how

[08:58] <bruenig> they are all enabled jeremysan dpkg -i foo.deb
[08:58] <bruenig> woops

[08:59] <OregonJim> Hi folks.
[08:59] <djm62> When I use cyrillic in emacs-snapshot-gtk it shows up as a series of squares... does anyone understand (X/Gnome) fonts well enough to tell me how to fix it, because I don't? :(
[08:59] <deobfuscate> In my Places menu I have my home and desktop like normal but there is another link on there I don't want, anyone know how to edit that menu
[08:59] <OregonJim> I have an external usb hard drive I would like to have read-write access to. Automount seems convinced it needs to be mounted read only. How can I fix that?
[08:59] <koen> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28518/
[08:59] <jeremysan> Flannel, how do I "sneakernet" the deb file (from where?)..
[08:59] <jrib> deobfuscate: what link?
[09:00] <Megaqwerty> Does anyone know how I could access a remote DAAP stream with rhythmbox? I was thinking I could use an SSH tunnel, but I'm not sure on the specifics of how that would be accomplished.
[09:00] <djm62> deobfuscate: is it a location you've created a shortcut to?
[09:00] <shnastybiznastic> John`: I don't think so.
[09:00] <deobfuscate> I might have done it but if I did it was on accident
[09:00] <Joe__> hey
[09:01] <koen> Anyone got a solution for my problem? : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28518/
[09:01] <Flannel> jeremysan: I believe you want this package: http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/misc/ndiswrapper-utils-1.9  If you look at the bottom, theres a table, click on your arch, you'll go to a page of mirrors with the deb for dowload.  Also, you see that it depends on ndiswrapper-common, you'll want to download that as well.
[09:01] <shnastybiznastic> OregonJim: well, is it formatted NTFS?
[09:01] <OregonJim> I suspect that it is.
[09:01] <kefas> help me
[09:01] <kefas> plis
[09:01] <OregonJim> shnastybiznastic: Yup I think it is.
[09:02] <Flannel> John`: Someones working on that, has a prototype, you're welcome to try it: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2007/07/02/swapboost-v01alpha-early-testers-wanted/
[09:02] <deobfuscate> If I go into main menu I can edit applications and system but not places
[09:02] <djm62> deobfuscate: if it is, you can use the "open file" dialog from any gnome app, and the location will be listed on the left hand side... click once on it, and click "remove"
[09:02] <quinton_> Can someone tell me the terminal code to burn something to cs?
[09:02] <shnastybiznastic> OregonJim: in that case, you will need the 3g ntfs drivers, but be ye warned, they aren't supported by microsoft
[09:02] <quinton_> cd*
[09:02] <OregonJim> shnastybiznastic: I am using Edgy btw.
[09:02] <Flannel> !burn | quinton_

[09:02] <djm62> deobfuscate: I know it's kind of obscure...
[09:02] <deobfuscate> djm62, remove and rename are grayed out
[09:02] <OregonJim> shnastybiznastic Maybe I should just reformat it.
[09:02] <quinton_> flannel, no i mean like the terminal code
[09:03] <quinton_> flannel, all i need is the code
[09:03] <quinton_> flannel, to type into the terminal
[09:03] <Comrade-Sergei> i get no sound in UT2004 and its only a ubuntu problem whats the probelm?
[09:03] <GreenJelly> after setup... first reboot Error 24: Attempt to access outside Block outside of partition
[09:03] <shnastybiznastic> OregonJim: that might be a good idea if you are constantly going between ubuntu machines and windows machines
[09:03] <Flannel> quinton_: There are terminal based programs there.  You'll want to use one.
[09:03] <djm62> deobfuscate: um... can you open "Accessories->Text Editor"
[09:03] <OregonJim> shnastybiznastic: are the drivers available in Synaptic?
[09:03] <deobfuscate> djm62, yes
[09:03] <shnastybiznastic> OregonJim: just make sure to back up all your data first
[09:03] <OregonJim> shnastybiznastic the kids might want to use it too.
[09:03] <quinton_> flannel, no... applications... terminal... whats the code to type in and make it burn to disk?
[09:03] <shnastybiznastic> OregonJim: yeah, that's how I got em' let me dig up a tutorial real quicks' like
[09:04] <OregonJim> shnastybiznastic ok thanks.
[09:04] <djm62> deobfuscate: now File->Open
[09:04] <Flannel> quinton_: You use one of those programs, from the terminal, to burn to a CD
[09:04] <interfear> does it matter if you burn an operating system iso to a cd-r or a dvd-r? as in could i burn ubuntu/windows to a dvd-r instead of cd-r?
[09:04] <quinton_> flannel, no you dont have to... I did not before...
[09:04] <djm62> deobfuscate: and you should have a box with a list of "Places" down the left hand side
[09:04] <steel_lady> please we need quick help! My boyfriend recorded a CD of his music of his band and we have to make 40 more. He came from another town to my house and I need a good program to rip it raw!

[09:05] <djm62> deobfuscate: don't right-click.  left-click and use the buttons at the bottom...
[09:05] <Flannel> quinton_: Using a GUI vs a CLI won't matter if your computer has burning problems

[09:06] <DaltonS> _Lucretia_,  is could be that the CD burned incorrectly. Did you run the "check disk" tool that comes on the disk?
[09:06] <shnastybiznastic> helter: I have the same problem, haven't tried to fix it yet.  if you find anything, I'd appreciate a heads-up

[09:07] <_Lucretia_> damn
[09:07] <djm62> deobfuscate: and you can't remove that by left-clicking once, then clicking remove at the bottom?
[09:07] <_Lucretia_> Daliz: soz, meant for daltons
[09:07] <quinton_> can someone tell me the terminal code needed to be typed in to burn something to cd ?
[09:07] <deobfuscate> djm62, there is no remove at the bottom
[09:07] <shnastybiznastic> helter: I have a 9800 pro, btw.
[09:07] <DaltonS> _Lucretia_, depending on where the error on the CD is, it could install almost completely then not boot or fail on the install.
[09:07] <jeremysan> Flannel, I have downloaded and installed both NDISwrapper and the commons.  Is it fully installed/functional or is there something else I need to do?
[09:07] <barnydan_> is it possible to uninstall a program that was installed from a *.deb file? or do I need to know where it put all the files?
[09:07] <Flannel> jeremysan: Uh, once theyre installed, theyre installed.  You need to configure them/whatever.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessTroubleShootingGuide#head-831cb2664b6c6a8bee23aaf8e0356e39edf9a01e
[09:07] <djm62> deobfuscate: you mean it's greyed out?
[09:08] <steel_lady> virtuos, please can you help me?
[09:08] <jeremysan> thank you alot.
[09:08] <kaosbunny> barnydan_: dpkg --remove
[09:08] <Flannel> barnydan_: yes, that's the point.  If you fire up synaptic, it should be listed there.  Or you can use dpkg
[09:08] <shnastybiznastic> quinton_: look up cdrecord
[09:08] <GenghisKhan> Comrade-Sergei: sure? i thought it used oss. anyway, make sure there are no sound daemons running and look at the logs
[09:08] <deobfuscate> djm62, yes
[09:08] <stefg> steel_lady:  if you just need to copy a cd into a raw image you can do  dd if=/dev/cdrom of=rocknroll.iso

[09:09] <GenghisKhan> Comrade-Sergei: running gnome or kde?
[09:09] <Jowi> hello everyone. I'm trying to remove irmp3 and get dpkg error 1. what does that error mean and what can I do about it? force and reinstall returns same error. (edgy)
[09:09] <quinton_> shnastybiznastic, I MUST use terminal NONE of the other ways work no matter what. I tried. I need a terminal code to load and burn the .iso to a disc
[09:09] <AbuAnsar> hi
[09:09] <sadmin> hi all
[09:09] <AbuAnsar> need help guys
[09:09] <Nutubuntu> RoC_MasterMind,  I was sniffing around for a file manager and found 'vfu' - installed it and it looks very nice in a klunky retro way, a lot like the old DOS app List I remembered. Just in case you'd like something more List-y ...
[09:09] <sadmin> any one works on SRSS
[09:09] <sadmin> hey
[09:09] <DaltonS> _Lucretia_,  I would try burning another CD and seeing if the same thing happens. THis time, reboot the computer, don
[09:09] <djm62> deobfuscate: um... same here, actually.  and I have no idea why - let me investigate
[09:09] <barnydan_> thanks Kaosbunny and Flannel!
[09:09] <John`> how come after i use this command "mkswap -L blob /dev/sdb1 512000"
[09:09] <RoC_MasterMind> OK, Nutubuntu ...thanks.
[09:09] <shnastybiznastic> quinton_: cdrecord is the terminal application used to burn CDs
[09:09] <rambo3> Jowi, what does  "sudo aptitude -f install" return
[09:09] <John`> i can't put in swapon
[09:10] <DaltonS> _Lucretia_, don't start anything extra and try again. Maybe too many programs corrupted something.
[09:10] <_Lucretia_> DaltonS: yeah, i'll try another but slower
[09:10] <GreenJelly> anyone know what version of grub is in ubuntu?
[09:10] <quinton_> shnastybiznastic, does not work
[09:10] <sadmin> my evolution crashed with crash handler
[09:10] <sadmin> any idea
[09:10] <sadmin> why
[09:10] <shnastybiznastic> quinton_: I don't know what to tell you then.  What are you trying to do?
[09:10] <virtuos> steel_lady how to help you?
[09:10] <steel_lady> stefg, where should I write it?
[09:10] <Flannel> quinton_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CdDvdBurning#head-c448095898e6c5c2443974bc3f1120aaa8948f7d
[09:10] <amid_> hi
[09:10] <OregonJim> Off to install the drivers!! Thanks.
[09:10] <amid_> can u help me?
[09:10] <steel_lady> stefg, in the terminal
[09:10] <quinton_> shnastybiznastic, it doesnt recognize I have a cd so I force it to burn using the terminal and entering a command I forgot the command though
[09:11] <John`> by putting the command "mkswap -L blob /dev/sdb1 512000" what is the correspond swapon command to make it work?
[09:11] <virtuos> steel_lady, do u tell me or not?
[09:11] <Jowi> rambo3, it returns strange stuff. it reports 20-30 broken packages. it looks like the dpkg cache is corrupted or something.
[09:11] <deobfuscate> djm62, o
[09:11] <deobfuscate> k
[09:11] <shnastybiznastic> quinton_: that's a new one on me
[09:11] <stefg> steel_lady: where you want it (and have sufficient space)...
[09:11] <amid_> slavik
[09:11] <John`> for some reason, it said it can't find it
[09:11] <amid_> can u  help me?
[09:11] <steel_lady> virtuos I am asking for the raw CD image
[09:11] <quinton_> flannel, none helped
[09:11] <GreenJelly> http://trac.cross-lfs.org/ticket/40
[09:11] <Flannel> quinton_: That page has it. scroll down to the "unsupported cards".
[09:11] <steel_lady> stefg I mean in the terminal?
[09:11] <slavik> no sound in enemy territory ... what to do? (I can do aoss ./et, but sound is choppy)
[09:11] <virtuos> yes so?
[09:11] <GreenJelly> anyone know if we have the new version of grub
[09:11] <Flannel> steel_lady: an iso is an image of the CD, byte for byte
[09:11] <Comrade-Sergei> GenghisKhan, gnome!
[09:12] <slavik> !ask | amid
[09:12] <ubotu> amid: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:12] <rambo3> Jowi, did it find solution or just ended with error ? if error then type sudo  dpkg --configure -a . if no let it solve the problem then aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[09:12] <arjen_ubu> is ICMP blockage (ping etc.) recommended with firestarter?
[09:12] <virtuos> steel_lady, tell me  in pvt pr ? :)P
[09:12] <GenghisKhan> people, which is the process of the gnome sound daemon? (i don't use gnome)
[09:12] <Anlar> arjen_ubu: mu.
[09:12] <slavik> GenghisKhan: esd I think
[09:12] <quinton_> flannel, Im looking for one word... it runs (WORD) (file.iso) and runs it fro mterminal
[09:12] <amid_> when i m tryin to type using Cyrilic letter (Russian) in a chat room based on a Adobe Flash, strange characters appear instead of russian letters
[09:13] <amid_> can u guys help me out?
[09:13] <stefg> steel_lady: yes, that's a terminal command.... but this is the archaic way. consider something like k3b , which is a proper burning app
[09:13] <Jowi> rambo3, it found a solution alright. aptitude basicly want to remove half my system which is quite unacceptable :)
[09:13] <fssssssssssh> the little windows of the opened programs in my bottomtaskbar always show the name&symbbol
[09:13] <GenghisKhan> Comrade-Sergei: then do "ps aux | grep esd"
[09:13] <InterNut> im trying to compile pidgin, but i get "You must have the GTK+ 2.0 development headers installed to compile Pidgin." where do i get that? i looked in synaptic but did not find it, or im looking after the wrong things
[09:13] <arjen_ubu> Anlar: I suppose you meant no? ;)
[09:13] <quinton_> flannel, like... sudo kubuntu.iso BUT sudo is not the word
[09:13] <slavik> amid_: blame flash
[09:13] <cBau> Does anyone know how to swap the voices for "Festival?"
[09:13] <quinton_> flannel, you know the word?
[09:13] <slavik> InterNut: libgtk2.0-dev or something like that
[09:14] <rambo3> Jowi, figures . i don't know  then
[09:14] <amid_> Slavik, but it was ok yesterday.
[09:14] <steel_lady> stefg I can not now, it gives me this:dd if=/dev/cdrom of=rocknroll.iso
[09:14] <steel_lady> dd: reading `/dev/cdrom': Input/output error
[09:14] <steel_lady> 0+0 records in

[09:14] <steel_lady> 0 bytes (0 B) copied, 0.09009 seconds, 0.0 kB/s
[09:14] <Jowi> rambo3, I try a dist-upgrade and see what it says.
[09:14] <InterNut> thanks slavik , ill try that
[09:14] <Anlar> arjen_ubu: mu means mu.
[09:14] <steel_lady> stefg please more detailed instructions
[09:14] <rambo3> Jowi, ok use aptitude
[09:14] <amid_> i can type usin cyrilic letters anywhere else but flash !
[09:14] <shnastybiznastic> InterNut: do you need to compile it?
[09:14] <slavik> amid_: then blame yourself for changing something ...
[09:14] <Flannel> quinton_: no.  I don't.  I suggest you try the cdrecord method on that page for unsupported cards.
[09:14] <amid_> yes
[09:14] <amid_> what did i change?
[09:14] <Stwange> if I copy stuff from my NTFS partition into my linux partition, is it easy(ish) to shrink the NTFS one and increase the size of the linux one?
[09:14] <amid_> how can i find it out ?
[09:14] <quinton_> flannel, dont work, I have tried it before
[09:14] <slavik> whoeverw anted pidgin, getadeb.com or whatever has debs for it
[09:15] <rambo3> Stwange, yes
[09:15] <quinton_> Need terminal code to burn iso to cd! (terminal code only nothing else works)
[09:15] <arjen_ubu> Anlar: and what is "mu"?
[09:15] <Stwange> rambo3 - what program can I use to do it?
[09:15] <InterNut> shnastybiznastic: well, i thought so, but looks like slavik knows there is a deb for it
[09:15] <GreenJelly> whats the command in grub to see the HD's available
[09:15] <DaltonS> Stwange, there is always a slight risk of ruining oth partitions when changing partition size though. It's not common, but it is possible.
[09:15] <stefg> steel_lady: probably i guessed your device name wrong. But seriously. get k3b to do the copying. that's a user friendly GUI program
[09:16] <stefg> !k3b
[09:16] <ubotu> k3b is a feature-rich and user-friendly burning application for KDE (and, as all KDE applications, works fine on GNOME). For a guide, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/K3BHowto
[09:16] <rambo3> Stwange, no idea . parition magic is comerical
[09:16] <saxartist> Hi everyone.  I'm having a friggin' crazy problem

[09:17] <Comrade-Sergei> GenghisKhan, im going to pastenin it
[09:17] <sadmin> whats up
[09:17] <saxartist> yesterday, that thing at boot "xxxxx has been mounted 28 times without being checked"  And it usually works fine,
[09:17] <saxartist> but this time, it gave an error
[09:17] <Comrade-Sergei> GenghisKhan, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28522/
[09:17] <saxartist> now my partition appears as empty
[09:17] <saxartist> but in WINDOWS it's there, just fine
[09:17] <GreenJelly> any reason that no one answers any of my questions?  Since I did a simple install and I get a Grub error that appears http://trac.cross-lfs.org/ticket/40
[09:17] <DaltonS> Stwange, Disk Druid is the Red Hat version. That and Partition Magic are all I have ever used.
[09:17] <djm62> deobfuscate: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-423739.html
[09:17] <rambo3> saxartist, do you have live cd ?
[09:17] <amid_> sadmin: need help with typing in a flash-based chat room
[09:18] <Stwange> DaltonS: thanks. Hope it doesn't ruin the partitions :S
[09:18] <sadmin> hey am not  a programmer
[09:18] <saxartist> rambo3:  yes, and Windows mounted it just fine
[09:18] <sadmin> u r doing in ph
[09:18] <sadmin> php
[09:18] <sadmin> ?
[09:18] <quinton_> Will someone please tell me the terminal code to launch and burn a iso file to cd from the terminal itself?
[09:18] <amid_> sadmin: cyrilic letters started to appear in a strange way
[09:18] <DaltonS> Stwange, backup-backup-backup :D
[09:18] <steel_lady> stefg, the disk is fine, k3b does not want to copy it
[09:18] <GenghisKhan> Comrade-Sergei: do "sudo killall -9 esd", then check it is really killed. on "ps aux | grep esd" it should only appear the line ending in grep esd
[09:18] <rambo3> saxartist, can you do fsck.ext3 from live cd
[09:18] <amid_> sadmin: what is this room for ? :)
[09:18] <stefg> steel_lady: what error?
[09:18] <Stwange> maybe it would be better to leave it NTFS. How do I change where it's mounted at? ie. instead of /media/sda1 I want /portal then I can just leave in there the bits I want
[09:19] <deobfuscate> djm62, :(
[09:19] <saxartist> rambo3: I suppose I could do that!  What's that command do?
[09:19] <sadmin> its ffor general Ubuntu tings

[09:20] <quinton_> Can someone please tell me the code I would type into the terminal to burn something with the terminal loader in text?
[09:20] <rambo3> saxartist, if it is fat32 and is mounting in windows the something else is wrong. i thought you had ext3 parition

[09:26] <GreenJelly> I read all of this wonderfull responses, and I have no Idea if someones attempting to answer my question or someone elses, because no one uses names to respond to questions
[09:26] <ubotu> Snorkel^: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo

[09:29] <compengi> gnomefreak, i think you're busy, sorry for disturbing you
[09:29] <saxartist> rambo3: Thanks a LOT!  I got it fixed
[09:29] <saxartist> it was a stupid BEAGLE problem
[09:29] <rambo3> saxartist, good
[09:29] <saxartist> user_xattr
[09:29] <saxartist> messed somethin' up
[09:30] <Nutubuntu> saxartist,  you got beagle to run? I never got it to return any data from a search, finally gave up ... that was an install ago, though, maybe should try again?
[09:30] <Snorkel^> oki, how do I change the write/read rights to a folder in terminal?
[09:30] <Comrade-Sergei> PurpZeY_, do you know how to fix my problem?
[09:30] <PurpZeY_> Comrade-Sergei: Unfortunately I do not.
[09:30] <CrakeHunter> does anyone have any clue why the immigration assistent in feisty doesnt recognize my windowsxp partition? (ntfs)
[09:30] <Comrade-Sergei> i get no sound in UT2004 and its only a ubuntu problem whats the probelm?
[09:30] <Xraven92> if i delete my linux partion will it completly remove ubuntu and grub?
[09:30] <CrakeHunter> its mountes on /media/Windows XP
[09:30] <saxartist> Nutubuntu: yeah, it's been working pretty well.  Just read all the FAQs (I will post a link) BeFoRe InStAlLaTiOn!
[09:30] <Comrade-Sergei> CrakeHunter, cause its ntfs lol
[09:30] <Nutubuntu> GreenJelly, one idea ... Does Grub have a limitation about what partition it's willing to boot from? in other words, where it wants to see /boot ?
[09:30] <Xraven92> if i delete my linux partion will it completly remove ubuntu and grub?
[09:30] <gnomefreak> compengi: what can i do for you?
[09:30] <GreenJelly> Nutubuntu I installed the Umbuto, and got "Error 24: Attempt to access block outside partition" which is a problem with a specific version of GRUB http://trac.cross-lfs.org/ticket/40  I just dont have a clue on if this is the version installed, and how I would go about fixinging it...
[09:31] <Flannel> Xraven92: No, you'll still have grub in your MBR.  But yes, grub won't be able to work
[09:31] <Tom__> Xraven92 - I think so!
[09:31] <PurpZeY_> Comrade-Sergei: Did you get my msg?
[09:31] <Xraven92> so when i boot up my machine will ti boot directly to windwos xp?
[09:31] <Nutubuntu> saxartist,  thanks, I definitely will
[09:31] <Comrade-Sergei> PurpZeY_, no im not identified hold onj
[09:31] <K`zan> Thanks!
[09:31] <Nutubuntu> GreenJelly,  you're way past what I know :( sorry
[09:31] <Flannel> Xraven92: no.  You need to get a windows CD, and fixmbr
[09:31] <stefg> Jowi: so google turned up http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=155478 ... if it's something more serious , afaik there are some doubtful hacks to regenerate it, but you'd be better of to restore a (hopefully recent) backup
[09:31] <Comrade-Sergei> ok PurpZeY_ send away~!
[09:31] <GreenJelly> Nutubuutu thanks, this is a crazy issue...
[09:32] <saxartist> http://beagle-project.org/FAQ Nutubuntu:  Make sure you enable extended attributes properly, that's what my problem was

[09:32] <AnAnt> what is Default ACL ?
[09:32] <GreenJelly> Nutubuntu I will go back to suse I guess
[09:32] <calder_1> I have a problem with wifi/pci/card EDIMAX EW-7128G; problem = I't seems to see the essid, so that means for me that the card is installed, but I cannot conekt... in wifi-radar I see my wifi router, but cannot conect or edit
[09:32] <Comrade-Sergei> CrakeHunter, well you can have it recognize ntfs but its not easy
[09:32] <Flannel> CrakeHunter: ntfs support does exist.  Reading by default, writing with a package in universe
[09:32] <ikon> yea man

[09:34] <quinton_> Can someone please tell me what I type in the terminal to make it burn a file to cd from the terminal itself?
[09:34] <ompaul> GreenJelly, 99% your issue is to do with xfs
[09:34] <Jowi> stefg, I have backups of everything except the system files of course. the thing is that everything on the system seems to work but only dpkg is corrupted somehow.
[09:34] <GreenJelly> mlr I reboot and I get the "Error 24: Attempt to access block outside partition."  it is described in  http://trac.cross-lfs.org/ticket/40
[09:34] <CrakeHunter> a but wait, comrade / flannel - i can read data from my ntfs by default. and all the immigration assistent needs is to read data from my xp partition and write it to my ext3 linux one.
[09:34] <regjava> where can i get ntfsfix for ubuntu?
[09:34] <GreenJelly> ompaul Im not using xfs
[09:34] <gnomefreak> compengi: update them again, its very possible they are new versions, it happens alot they will release 2 versions in one day and you end up getting both
[09:34] <m1r> sec greenjelly
[09:34] <|chris|> snorkel for example chmod a+rw * would giv everyone read write to *
[09:35] <hende> hey can someone help me out

[09:35] <gnomefreak> compengi: updates wont hurt you on feisty, it is fairly hard to get updates in a stable version of ubuntu
[09:35] <magnetron> dropety: the power button is a part of GNOME
[09:36] <m1r> geenjelly , did u try use patch ?
[09:36] <extern> hey, I need one exact phrase changed to another exact phrase for all files in a folder recursively (including sub folders). How can I achieve this easily?
[09:36] <Jowi> stefg, was irmp3 in the edgy repos that hung my system so I had to hard-reset the machine. after that I tried to remove irmp3 that's how I discovered it. yeah, I'm checking the link you gave and others. cheers
[09:36] <gnomefreak> extern: -R

[09:36] <regjava> I cant get to mount my ntfs partition, how do i fix the error
[09:36] <extern> gnomefreak, which command?
[09:36] <CrakeHunter> flannel, question is: how can i make the immigration assistent get to recognize my windowsxp partition (i want to migrate my favorites / outlook data to linux)
[09:36] <gnomefreak> extern: depends what you are doing
[09:36] <hende> i installed ubuntu and it is not pickin up my wireless card. i dont know what my wireless card is so i thought i would get drivers but its hard to know what to download with no idea of what wireless card you have. either that or its just not picking up my wireless card
[09:36] <buenas_wertee> whose got Tomcat running, whats required for JAVA_HOME just the bin path to where the java executables are or the jdk/jre directory?
[09:37] <Nutubuntu> How worried should I be about a kernel Oops that did not lock up the computer, and that (so far) has not happened again? Running Feisty on a dual-core a64.
[09:37] <GreenJelly> m1r I cant get it booted, and I dont know what drive is my boot drive...
[09:37] <|chris|> hende: you may want to look at ndiswrapper
[09:37] <gnomefreak> extern: change name of folder to a new name and name all subfolders the same?

[09:37] <calder_1> hlp, hlp

[09:37] <hende> huh
[09:37] <justin__> Hello Newbie here when someone gets a moment I would like some assistance with Java

[09:37] <AnAnt> justin__: sup ?
[09:37] <stefg> !java | justin__
[09:37] <m1r> greenjelly , can u check with livecd ?
[09:37] <ubotu> justin__: 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
[09:37] <buenas_wertee> hende use lspci to see which nic card it detected
[09:37] <Xraven92> ok so to remove ubuntu correctly....i partion my hd so windows takes up the entire hd then put in my windows cd do the fixmbr thing right?
[09:37] <gnomefreak> compengi: not really
[09:37] <CrakeHunter> flannel, i dont understand why i should unmount it
[09:38] <|chris|> xraven93: yep
[09:38] <GreenJelly> m1r check with livecd?
[09:38] <Xraven92> kk thanks
[09:38] <Flannel> Xraven92: fixmbr first, then you can reboot into windows, and you can resize at your leisure.

[09:38] <kane77> hi, can I change file owner of file on ftp? with what program/command?
[09:38] <m1r> have u tried reinstall grub greenjelly ?
[09:38] <Xraven92> Flannel : ah ok thanks
[09:38] <buenas_wertee> kane77 log on to the server and use chmod
[09:38] <Anlar> dropety: if that doesn't help then rm -rf ~/.gnome likely helps but it will reset all your desktop settings
[09:38] <calder_1>  I have a problem with wifi/pci/card EDIMAX EW-7128G; problem = I't seems to see the essid, so that means for me that the card is installed, but I cannot conekt... in wifi-radar I see my wifi router, but cannot conect or edit...
[09:38] <compengi> gnomefreak, okay
[09:38] <Flannel> CrakeHunter: because (maybe) the migration assistant looks for unmounted stuffs.  I don't know.  I've never really used it, and I don't know how it works behind the scenes.  Did you check to see if there was a bug report for your problem?  It might have a workaround.
[09:38] <Xraven92> Flannel: when i do the fixmbr, will it delete everything on my harddrive?
[09:39] <compengi> gnomefreak, i'm upgrading
[09:39] <|chris|> anyone help with USB ports not working on 2.6.20-16-generic laptop with two existing sata drives?  No matter what they do not show up in /dev
[09:39] <justin__> Okay. I went to the Java website and downloaded and installed the JRE as per thier directions. Firefox does not recognize that there is java installed when I goto about:plugins.
[09:39] <Flannel> Xraven92: no.  Just make windows boot instead of grub
[09:39] <CrakeHunter> where do i need to look for a bugreport?
[09:39] <Xraven92> ok thanks!
[09:39] <Comrade-Sergei> i get no sound in UT2004 and its only a ubuntu problem whats the problem?
[09:39] <|chris|> and by they I mean any USB  drive my sata drive works great
[09:39] <justin__> I checked to see if Java was enabled in the preferences and itr was

[09:40] <barnydan_>  I'm having trouble compiling another program.  the problem seems simlar,  when I run ./configure I get "checking for LIBOIL... configure: error: liboil-0.3 >= 0.3.12 is required"

[09:45] <hende> ok
[09:45] <quinton_> hende, or the easiest thing to do is download automatix...
[09:45] <|chris|> to bad I can't get my usb ports to work for some odd reason....
[09:45] <hende> whats automatix
[09:45] <quinton_> hende, it has frostwire

[09:47] <Tom__> Hey Everyone - i have ubuntu installed as a LAMP server and has been happily chugging away for a few weeks. how ever today it the network card has vanished from the config - Any ideas why?
[09:47] <quinton_> |chris|, do you know what to type in the terminal to burn to a cd in the terminal itself...? like a burn with no image just using terminal
[09:47] <Twisties> Can anyone help me install nVidia driver for a GeForce 4 via command line?
[09:47] <hende> so for burning cds and stuff its the same as windows
[09:47] <quinton_> hende, should be for you
[09:47] <|chris|> quinton_ I did at one time.... now I just use gnomebake
[09:48] <barnydan_>  I'm having trouble compiling another program.  the problem seems simlar,  when I run ./configure I get "checking for LIBOIL... configure: error: liboil-0.3 >= 0.3.12 is required". I installed liboil-0.3-dev and still get this same error. Someone mentioned that I may need to tell Configure where the file is located.  How do I do that?
[09:48] <quinton_> |chris|, I really need it to install kubuntu
[09:48] <Ropechoborra> Twisties check for an INSTALL file in the driver
[09:48] <hende> ok
[09:48] <quinton_> |chris|, do you remember what you used to type in?
[09:48] <ikon> i really need help with my soundcard
[09:48] <hende> well i hope it works would it running off a live cd cause it not to pick up my wifi
[09:48] <Anlar> barnydan_: check the more accurate version, it really has to be 0.3.12 or newer, for instance 0.3.11 is not enough
[09:48] <|chris|> quinton_ one sec... is it ok if I IM you?
[09:48] <Twisties> Ropechoborra, how about starting with what to download
[09:48] <Olgem> n=fabioval@201-69-89-179.dial-up.telesp.net.br
[09:48] <quinton_> |chris|, whatl like on aim? go for it...
[09:48] <olafski> hello, I'm trying to get my webcam (logitech quickcam messenger plus) to work in ubuntu 7.04; it works when I run some script I found, but after I have rebooted it does not anymore. I'm thinking this has to do with the fact that /dev/video0 does not exist after a reboot, but does exist when I run the script.. any clues?
[09:48] <Twisties> also, why the hell none of my repo's seem to work
[09:49] <extern> is there a way to use sed on all files in a folder and its sub folders?
[09:49] <dialntone> xfdrake or something like that
[09:49] <quinton_> |chris|, jetoninjinx is my aol instant screen name
[09:49] <dialntone> thats' how you install a new driver
[09:49] <dialntone> video card
[09:49] <smallmouth> how do I find what programs are running? I have a problem were vlc keeps playing after I close the window
[09:49] <hende> quinton
[09:49] <Ropechoborra> Twisties lol, so Google for the drivers, put the specific name and model of the card
[09:49] <quinton_> hende, yes?
[09:49] <Ropechoborra> and the word "drivers+download"
[09:49] <hende> would running it off a live cd cause it to not pick up my wifi
[09:49] <Anlar> smallmouth: ps axu | grep vlc    should work for you, "killall vlc" likely will stop it
[09:49] <dialntone> <-0000000000------------------------ can someone help me with manually installing a new sound driver
[09:49] <stefg> Twisties: sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r` nvidia-glx && sudo nvidia-xconfig
[09:49] <dialntone> this is pretty complicated
[09:50] <extern> is there a way to use sed on all files in a folder and its sub folders?
[09:50] <quinton_> hende, hm? please try to explain that a little better?
[09:50] <Nodlain> I'm having a problem viewing my shared windows folders via my ubuntu machine.  I get a 'the contents of this folder cannot be displayed' error.
[09:50] <magnetron> olafski: that script probably loads the driver for the camera. that's all i can say with this info
[09:50] <ikon> hey, somebody help me
[09:50] <quinton_> hende, sorry, I am a little new to linux myself... I only know some basics

[09:50] <ikon> i don ear any sound!
[09:50] <dialntone> same here
[09:50] <dialntone> i have an idea
[09:50] <quinton_> |chris|, hello?
[09:51] <hende> its running off a live cd when i tried to get online before its not this comp its my laptop and it wouldnt pick up my wifi. now im installing it to my hard drive so do you think that will make a difference
[09:51] <barnydan_> Anlar I did a find command, and it finds  "/usr/share/doc/liboil0.3"  how can I upgrade it to liboil0.3.12?
[09:51] <dialntone> make sure all is checked on standared PCM playback
[09:51] <Xraven92> thnaks flanne it worked perfectly =)
[09:51] <CrakeHunter> flannel, another info: i did a "sudo os-prober" and it gives me this "/dev/sda1:Microsoft Windows XP Professional:Windows:chain"
[09:51] <ikon> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28532/
[09:51] <ikon> some details
[09:51] <magnetron> olafski: you need to make the module load at startup. i don't know how to do it though
[09:51] <justin__> Anlar: http://pastebin.com/942127
[09:51] <olafski> magnetron: manually loading it won't work?
[09:51] <CrakeHunter> now isnt that strange? it recognizes the os and still doesnt migrate...
[09:51] <Lorne_Kun> ok i screwed something up seriously.
[09:51] <dialntone> the only problem is how do you get the music working for the webpage?
[09:51] <quinton_> hende, it might, but then again linux does not support as much as windows does... Its very different and runs off programs of its own making...
[09:51] <Anlar> barnydan_: yeah it's too old, google for the homepage for that etc.. manual work
[09:52] <Anlar> justin__: okay let's see
[09:52] <magnetron> olafski: it will work
[09:52] <Lorne_Kun> how do i unmount something manually, i accidentally mounted two volumes to the same mount point (typo)
[09:52] <quinton_> hende, If it does not work you may want to ask someone of a higher knowledge.
[09:52] <ikon> magnetron: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28532/
[09:52] <olafski> magnetron: well, it doesn't :s
[09:52] <Ropechoborra> Twisties check this site, it may help. http://nvidia-linux-display-driver.softonic.com/linux

[09:55] <Michael147> Hi all, can anybody tell me how i can transfer files from my HD to a usb device under Ubuntu?
[09:55] <Anlar> justin__: interesting.. what on earth is that audio chip.. nforce?
[09:55] <|chris|> quiniton_, no idea this is my first time using the client
[09:55] <jrib> extern: man find  goes into the details, but a basic exacmple would be:  find -exec echo '{}' \;
[09:55] <justin__> I don't know. Give me a moment and I'll find the answer
[09:55] <Nodlain> Anyone know how I can resolve my problem with windows shared folders not being accessible.  Error "contents of folder cannot be displayed"
[09:55] <ikon> thanks stefg
[09:56] <quinton_> |chris| oh gee, lol, it was only one word to launch and burn from the terminal you dont remember it?
[09:56] <Ropechoborra> Michael147 just insert the USB and it will pop up a window, and right click copy, right click paste :)
[09:56] <Dr_willis> Michael147,  'usb device' ? what kind of device you refering to?
[09:56] <|chris|> quiniton_, so you are wanting to burn an image from the command line in ubuntu?
[09:56] <quinton_> |chris| yes
[09:56] <Ropechoborra> Michael147 but if you want to do it by console, its diferent
[09:56] <quinton_> |chris|, yes
[09:56] <jrib> i turned it off once and never saw them again
[09:56] <Anlar> justin__: what is the laptop brand/model? ibm t??? ?
[09:56] <|chris|> quiniton_, sudo apt-get install dvd+rw-tools
[09:56] <quinton_> |chris|, like running it and burning it in the terminal itself
[09:56] <justin__> Gateway 7330GZ
[09:56] <Michael147> Ive inserted the device, but im getting nothing, no window/
[09:57] <Ropechoborra> Michael147 is it a pen drive right?
[09:57] <mzuverink> Join #proftp
[09:57] <Anlar> oh
[09:57] <extern> jrib, thanks
[09:57] <|chris|> quiniton_, got it installed?
[09:57] <quinton_> |chris|, already the newest version
[09:57] <Michael147> Yeah it is.
[09:57] <PurpZeY> Does Ubuntu block any ports by default, b/c I am experiencing some bizarre network issues
[09:58] <mzuverink> Does anyone know how to allow root logins in proftp?
[09:58] <Dr_willis> PurpZeY,  not really. it normally dosent isntall any services by default either. so no listening services.
[09:58] <Anlar> justin__: not very common..
[09:58] <|chris|> quiniton_, dvd+rw-format -force /dev/nameofyourburner  for example hdb
[09:58] <Stwange> under ubuntu, sometimes my speaker constantly emits a high pitch squeal. I've tried replacing the speakers, but nothing changed. Sometimes it does it for the startup jingle, and then stops (likewise for the shutdown one), and just now I opened a website that makes a noise, and it started doing it - ive closed the website but it's still doing it. It's not the internal speaker, any ideas?
[09:58] <Dr_willis> PurpZeY,  could use 'sudo iptables -l ' (i think) to  list any firewall rules in effect
[09:58] <|chris|> quiniton_, I think the format is for rw disk, but it can not hurt
[09:58] <quinton_> |chris|, thats not really what I need to know though, I need to know what to type to burn... its only one word then the name of the file
[09:58] <justin__> Anlar: I know.
[09:58] <Ropechoborra> Michael147 Ok, check for the directory /media and look for the pendrive there
[09:58] <Comrade-Sergei> YES i got it to work by coping a .so library out of /usr
[09:58] <|chris|> quiniton_, I am giving step by step....
[09:58] <GMWeezel> how do i capture video from a USB device on ubuntu?
[09:58] <Lunar_Lamp> !network install
[09:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about network install - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:58] <stefg> PurpZeY: avahi-daemon and network-manager are my favourite victims to blame
[09:59] <quinton_> |chris|, like... sudo kubuntu.iso.... but the word is no sudo
[09:59] <Comrade-Sergei> thanks guys though
[09:59] <Dr_willis> PurpZeY,   sudo iptables --list
[09:59] <espenel> hello
[09:59] <Michael147> Ropechoborra, thanks alot, ill do that.
[09:59] <justin__> The windows driver is Conexant Audio
[09:59] <Nutubuntu> saxartist,  about cool 'n' quiet: I think the wiki says that if you see a CPU freq change when glxgears is running (for example), cool 'n' quiet's working. Am I understanding that right?
[09:59] <Michael147> Ropechoborra, any idea if its path?
[09:59] <Ropechoborra> Lets do something better
[09:59] <Michael147> I new to the linux directory structure you see lol
[09:59] <yamfox> I installed kubuntu over my mom's vista laptop : - D
[10:00] <quinton_> |chris|, that worked... I would just rather not go through all of this again... I have tried everything and none of it works... except what I exampled to you
[10:00] <Ropechoborra> Michael147 in a Terminal, type: mount and paste the results on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[10:00] <stefg> fhs | Michael147
[10:00] <stefg> !fhs | Michael147
[10:00] <ubotu> Michael147: 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
[10:00] <CrakeHunter> can i change user rights from "root" to "user" while using the live cd? if so, how?
[10:00] <barnydan_> Anlar is it common for someone to have to upgrade their distro to get updated files like liboil-0.3.12?
[10:00] <saxartist> Nutubuntu: I'm not sure
[10:00] <Anlar> justin__: if the workaround presented here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75045&highlight=7330GZ doesn't work I hve no quick idea :)
[10:00] <saxartist> I'll check
[10:00] <Dark> hello. i have problems with expo plugin for compiz. i only get one screen when i have 3 desktops
[10:00] <Anlar> barnydan_: it is not common for people to manually compile stuff at all imho anymore nowadays..
[10:00] <stefg> CrakeHunter: don't you dare!
[10:00] <justin__> AnlarL=
[10:00] <Nutubuntu> saxartist,  me too :)
[10:00] <Dr_willis> CrakeHunter,  i was thinking you could just 'sudo -s' to get a root shell on the live cd.
[10:00] <justin__> Anlar: Thanks! I'll check it out and let ya know.
[10:00] <justin__> :-)
[10:01] <yamfox> vista looks like crap
[10:01] <checkergrrl> what is the difference between the -rpm.png and -rpm.svg?
[10:01] <espenel> unsure
[10:01] <Dr_willis> yamfox,  i agree 300%
[10:01] <hende> alright fellow linux users im a newbie and i need some help
[10:01] <CrakeHunter> dr willis, i need to change the permissions to access my windowsxp partition (i hope to make the migration assistent work by that)
[10:01] <barnydan_> Anlar,  i'm trying to install Dirac codec,  it only comes in source.  Though I see the next version of Ubuntu has the file I need,  should I just upgrade or should I try to figure out how to install that file in this distro?
[10:01] <quinton_> |chris|, do you understand what I mean?
[10:01] <hende> can someone help me
[10:02] <quinton_> hende, with?
[10:02] <|chris|> quinton_ cdrecord dev=/dev/cdrom driveropts=burnfree -v -data cd_image.iso
[10:02] <hende> the whole wifi thing
[10:02] <PurpZeY_> stefg, Dr_willis: See, that's what keeps happening...I opened one port for azureus (on my router) and now my router kicks about once a minute
[10:02] <|chris|> quinton_ sorry I am slow...
[10:02] <hende> would chris know
[10:02] <quinton_> |chris|, that will make it immediatly burn from the terminal
[10:02] <Michael147> Ropechoborra, heres some linkage lol http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28535/
[10:02] <Anlar> barnydan_: libdirac0c2a - general purpose video codec - library ?? it's available.. as is gstreamer plugin.. you shouldn't need anything more
[10:02] <|chris|> quinton_ should...
[10:03] <quinton_> hende, maybe
[10:03] <hende> can somebody help me with wifi
[10:03] <stefg> PurpZeY_: using the universe package for azu, or the sourforget -download ?
[10:03] <Dr_willis> CrakeHunter,  Odd..  the installer is having issues using the WindowsMigration thing?  I found the Migration assestant.. rather.. useless. :)
[10:03] <Ropechoborra> Michael147 i'll check it
[10:03] <PurpZeY_> stefg: I installed using add/remove...But it isn't even running now...
[10:03] <CrakeHunter> dr_willis - i hope to be able to migrat emy outlook data... does this work anyway?
[10:03] <|chris|> hende, what would I know?
[10:03] <Anlar> justin__: oh btw, your wifi does not work either, you have a wifi chip that has to be given its own software image when it gets powered up.. you have to download 1-2 files and put them into correct place before your wifi works
[10:03] <justin__> ANLAR YOU'RE A LIFE SAVER! THANKS A BUNCH!
[10:03] <barnydan_> Anlar  this is where I got it from. http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=155255,  I'm trying to get oggconverter to use it instead of theora.
[10:04] <Anlar> justin__: you want me to help you with your wifi as well?
[10:04] <|chris|> quinton_ did that work?
[10:04] <justin__> I noticed that too...
[10:04] <justin__> where do I download the software?
[10:04] <avidal> I accidentally removed myself from the 'admin' group using usermod -G, and now I can't sudo to modify my user anymore.  Sudo does nothing.  Is there anyway to fix this without downloading the liveCD and booting into recovery mode?
[10:04] <justin__> I'll take anything I can get
[10:04] <justin__> I'm jsut happy that you're doing this for me!
[10:04] <quinton_> |chris|, no
[10:04] <|chris|> quinton_, error message?
[10:04] <rustalot> where are the screensaver preferences stored
[10:04] <hende> so what do i have to do for it to read my wifi
[10:04] <Anlar> barnydan_: oh. well, then, you could just fetch liboil sources manually and compile it as well. it's a small library and very very picky and easily broken and causes often problems with certain multimedia software :p
[10:04] <llllllll> Hi, I'm putting entries into fstab but it appears they're being ignored. As far as I can tell I've typed it all correct, so why when I restart is it still not automatically mounting my FAT partition?
[10:04] <Dr_willis> CrakeHunter,  No idea. I know better then to use Outlook :) so i never have tried that part.
[10:05] <Anlar> justin__: I'll check, just a moment
[10:05] <hende> justin
[10:05] <Ropechoborra> Michael147 Ok, its not mounted. In order to use the pendrive you have to mount it first. But in order to mount it you must know wich is the device you will mount. So, go to the terminal and then type 'cd /dev' then do ' ls sd* ' and paste it in the pastebin please
[10:05] <drees> hello roomies
[10:05] <quinton_> |chris|, thank you!!! is all i had to do was type wodim kubuntu2.iso
[10:05] <KenSentMe> If i have a bug/suggestion for the Ubuntu installation. What package should i file the bug for?
[10:05] <quinton_> |chris|, then it burns
[10:05] <CrakeHunter> dr_willis - well, thx anyway.
[10:05] <Dr_willis> llllllll,  i would guess a faulty fstab entry.  Paste the fstab to a pastebin site and give the url to the room to let us all see
[10:05] <mongolai_> !ndis | hende
[10:05] <ubotu> hende: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[10:05] <stefg> PurpZeY_: the sad truth is: the azu-package in universe is quite broken, so get the sourceforge d/l ... the second aspect to consider is tht some routers simply breakdown whith hundreds of network connections like required by Bittorrent
[10:05] <quinton_> |chris|, thanks
[10:05] <MHazem> how can I disable swapon boot ?
[10:05] <llllllll> OK then, give me a second

[10:05] <quinton_> |chris|, it popped up a baggilion things about wodim so i remembered the word

[10:06] <MHazem> how can I disable swap on boot ?
[10:06] <CrakeHunter> i found evolution to be inferior to outlook :/
[10:06] <NETabuse> Hi guys.. just a simple request for help with ffmpeg,, i'm trying to reencode an ogg to an mp3 so i can play is on my psp .. no ogg support,, and my rockbox'd ipod is dead (battery issues) so i tried ffmpeg -y -i radioshow.ogg radioshow.mp3 but it won't play on the psp (it seemed to use mp2 as an encoding)
[10:06] <NETabuse> so anyone able to help?
[10:06] <NETabuse> the mp2 encoded mp3 file worked in mpg123 though.
[10:06] <Anlar> justin__: you could take this route: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#Ndiswrapper_for_Broadcom_43xx_wireless_chipset
[10:06] <NETabuse> but i suppose that's down to supported codecs by the different players..
[10:06] <arjen_ubu> hey people i unstalled bittorrent and i dont like the interface, but now i cant remove it (even when using the synaptic package manager) because it says one of its dependencies is ubuntu-desktop
[10:07] <stefg> Tom__: might it be as simple as that the NIC broke?
[10:07] <Anlar> justin__: basically what that does is rips the required files away from the windows drivers :D it works.
[10:07] <justin__> I'll check it out
[10:07] <justin__> brb
[10:07] <barnydan_> Anlar are you farmiliar with Encoding with Dirac?
[10:07] <Uranium235> Hey does anyone know much about Postfix?  I'm having some issues with SMTP.  PM me plz
[10:07] <Tom__> stefg: i have no idea sorry - how do i go about checking it out?
[10:07] <sdouble> anyone know of an Adobe Illustrator type of program for linux?
[10:07] <cluelessjoejacks> help me to install ubuntu?
[10:07] <barnydan_> Anlar I'm wondering if there is an easier way.
[10:07] <Dr_willis> arjen_ubu,  removeing it will 'break' (thus remove) the meta-package Ubuntu-desktop. remove it if ya want.. or dont.. Its not going to save you much space by removing it
[10:07] <Michael147> Ropechoborra, its saying there is no such file or directory.
[10:07] <extern> how can I make find not to list '.' at the beginning?
[10:07] <|chris|> I did come here for a reason....
[10:07] <NETabuse> also.. how can i do a multi value search in aptitude .. eg aptitude search mp3 ffmpeg  and have it do a non or type search?have it include both keywords?
[10:07] <Michael147> I entered the commands exactly as written.
[10:07] <Anlar> barnydan_: unlikely. the whole dirac thing is still so new..
[10:07] <stefg> Tom__: boot a live CD and check if lspci shows it there...
[10:07] <|chris|> could anyone help me out with my dead USB ports on my laptop?
[10:08] <Ropechoborra> Michael147 did u type cd /dev ?
[10:08] <Tom__> stefg: sure thing - if it does what do you think my next steps are?
[10:08] <hoelk> does anybody know a tool for adding up images of the same scene for increasing quality? like ale? just with gui? im really to dumb for command line apps ;)
[10:08] <arjen_ubu> Dr_willis: ubuntu desktop is essential to run no?
[10:08] <Michael147> Yeah i changed the directory to /dev
[10:09] <Ropechoborra> Michael147 Ok, now type: ls sd*
[10:09] <Dr_willis> arjen_ubu,  its a Meta-Package. its just a package that lists all the OTHER packages ..
[10:09] <Dr_willis> arjen_ubu,  like a shopping list. :) 'whats in the standard ubuntu-desktop'
[10:09] <arjen_ubu> ah ok
[10:09] <stefg> Tom__: get sneekers on, either search the hardware dump for some spare card, or cough up 10 bucks to buy a new one. (if lspci on a live CD still can't find it)
[10:09] <Uranium235> I'm needing some help with Postfix.  I can receive emails fine.  internal and external.  But I cannot send mails
[10:10] <arjen_ubu> Dr_willis: can you tell me the difference between Removal and Complete Removal in Synaptic?
[10:10] <|chris|> korne_kun, whats wrong....
[10:10] <foxjazz> can anyone help me with sound?
[10:10] <linxuz3r> whats a good desktop video capture for linux?
[10:10] <Ropechoborra> Michael147 nothing with ls sd* ?
[10:10] <Flannel> Lorne_Kun: umount is the unmount command.
[10:10] <Lorne_Kun> yes i know
[10:10] <kitche> Uranium235: what does your /var/log/maillog show?
[10:10] <Lorne_Kun> i figured that part out :)
[10:10] <Anlar> barnydan_: there is a way to get some packages from gutsy into feisty and telling it not to affect the rest. it is called "apt pinning" or something like that. someone else might be able to describe it. it involves adding couple lines to /etc/ and specifying what packages from gutsy you want to slam on your feisty...
[10:10] <extern> how can I make find ignore folder names?
[10:10] <Twisties> !wget
[10:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wget - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:10] <Michael147> Ropechoborra, yeah thats the command i used. I CDd to /dev and entered that command. It then gave me the output that theres no such file or directory.
[10:11] <Flannel> Anlar, barnydan_, pinning is sticking with old packages.  What you want is backporting.
[10:11] <Lorne_Kun> apparently, i cannot create a new partition on a volume using gparted, because i do not have permissions to mount the volume.
[10:11] <Flannel> !prevu | Anlar, barnydan_
[10:11] <ubotu> Anlar, barnydan_: prevu is an automated, personal backporting utility. Check out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Prevu for more details
[10:11] <|chris|> could anyone help me out with my USB ports on my laptop not mounting external drives?
[10:11] <Anlar> linxuz3r: wink. it is not open source, and it is absolutely the best option.
[10:11] <Ropechoborra> Michael147 ok try ls s*
[10:11] <Anlar> linxuz3r: it is freeware though.
[10:11] <Anlar> Flannel: I've done it the wrong way then :D
[10:11] <extern> how can I make find ignore folder names?
[10:12] <Anlar> linxuz3r: http://www.debugmode.com/wink/
[10:12] <linxuz3r> Anlar: is it available for linux?
[10:12] <Anlar> naturally.
[10:12] <newuser01> where can i get info on how to make my mouse thumb buttons work? thanx
[10:12] <hende> ok
[10:12] <Flannel> Anlar: You have indeed.  Don't add gutsy sources to feisty stuff.  What you'll have to do is remove the gutsy sources, and then pin (see !pin) the packages back to their feisty versions.

[10:12] <Michael147> Ropechoborra, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28538/
[10:12] <Anlar> linxuz3r: it unlike the others allows you to slightly edit the video and export as flash video very very easily. very stable as well.

[10:12] <Flannel> !ask | hende
[10:12] <ubotu> hende: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)

[10:13] <laurin> hey looking for a little help
[10:13] <|chris|> stefg, dv9000ct HP laptop
[10:13] <Anlar> Flannel: yeah :) I just did it some time the opposite way.. but usually it's not worth it anyways, for me it takes just couple seconds to compile software manually :)
[10:13] <barnydan_> ok thanks Anlar and Flannel.  Though maybe would it be best just to upgrade to Gusty?
[10:13] <PurpZeY__> stefg: I think it is related to my MTU level. So I a messing with that...Meanwhile, how can I check if there are any processes draining my router?
[10:13] <laurin> i have 3 partitions linux, windows, swap, fat32
[10:13] <Michael147> Ropechoborra, sorry if you feel like you babysitting me here.
[10:14] <Michael147> your*
[10:14] <Anlar> barnydan_: gutsy might work. then again it also might skin your cat and eat your granma. just keep that in mind.
[10:14] <hende> k if i have a windows driver cd can i use it on ubuntu to load my wifi card
[10:14] <extern> how can I make find ignore folder names?
[10:14] <Ropechoborra> Michael147 Its no problem. :)
[10:14] <llllllll> OK, I've successfully managed to get my FAT partition to automatically mount, but now I want it to do so as my /home folder. I've already got a whole load of stuff in my current /home folder (that's in the normal ubuntu filesystem). What's the best way to sort this? I tried just moving all the contents of my current /home folder into the partition and then setting fstab to mount said partition automatically as /home in the fil
[10:14] <laurin> whats the user command
[10:14] <|chris|> stefg, how does pastebin work?  sorry I am new
[10:14] <linxuz3r> seems that wink needs lots of stuff
[10:14] <Lorne_Kun> how do i remove directories that have spaces in their names.
[10:14] <Flannel> barnydan_: no.  Gutsy is alpha software, you don't want to.  You should use prevu to backport whatever you need.  Er, what is it that you're looking for?
[10:14] <Ropechoborra> I guess it is not recognizeing as a device (sorry for the spelling, i'm not english) =/
[10:14] <xst_> Shouldn't .Xdefaults (or .Xresources) be read upon logn?
[10:14] <barnydan_> Anlar. lol,  meaing it might mess everything up !fubar!
[10:14] <Ropechoborra> Michael147 is it plugged right?

[10:15] <larson9999> i'm going nuttser.  i have two laptops here.  one pretty new and one about 3 years old.  i installed feisty fresh on both about 3 months ago.  the problem is that on one laptop the wireless network just connects on startup but on the other one i have to enter in a network password.  how do i get the 2nd to just connect when i log in.
[10:15] <Michael147> Ropechoborra, yeah its in the drive.
[10:15] <extern> how can I make find ignore folder names?
[10:15] <stefg> !paste | |chris|
[10:15] <ubotu> |chris|: 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)
[10:15] <Flannel> llllllll: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/01/29/move-home-to-its-own-partition/  You DONT want to use a fat partition as your home partition
[10:15] <llllllll> How come?
[10:15] <Anlar> barnydan_: honestly? it rarely really screws up. practically never is destructive. it just might not want to boot sometimes, leading into livecd sessions where you chroot into your installtion to fix things.. :)
[10:15] <mzuverink> larson9999, pan-keychain  or something like that
[10:16] <Flannel> llllllll: because fat doesn't support permissions.
[10:16] <mzuverink> larson9999, pam not pan
[10:16] <swooney> Can anyone tell me how I might go about uninstalling an old version of glib after I installed a newer version?
[10:16] <|chris|> stefg, cool work in progress....
[10:16] <Ropechoborra> Michael147 I dont know then =( Its like it is not detecting the pendrive
[10:16] <barnydan_> Flannel i'm trying to compile Schrodinger Dirac project,  when I run the ./configure it gives me an error asking for liboil-0.3.12,  gusty has it fiesty has liboil-0.3.
[10:16] <TaJMoX> what package do i need to compile gtk stuff?   trying to compile mindguard and it cant find gtk/gtk.h
[10:16] <Anlar> feisty has 0.3.10 to be more exact.
[10:17] <justin__> Anlar: Thanks that worked!
[10:17] <llllllll> Flannel: So a FAT home partition would be completely unprotected, permissions-wise?
[10:17] <justin__> I really appreciate all your help getting me set up!
[10:17] <Anlar> justin__: anything else for ya? :)
[10:17] <larson9999> mzuverink, well it's not the keychain password anymore.  i've got rid of that.
[10:17] <justin__> I think those were my only three issues with this install.
[10:17] <Flannel> barnydan_: ah.  Uh, is liboil a normal dependency for anything? (does the normal system require it?)
[10:17] <Flannel> llllllll: Right.
[10:17] <llllllll> ok, thank
[10:17] <Crazy_Carl> when installing ndiswrapper it asks for some file called "libc6" can anyone tell me where to find that?
[10:17] <llllllll> s
[10:17] <barnydan_> Anlar, I probably am not ready for that yet.
[10:17] <Anlar> Flannel: multimedia libraries require it, I think some gstreamer plugins really do depend on it
[10:17] <barnydan_> Flannel  beets me!
[10:18] <griffjon> I knew I should'nt've upgraded to Feisty
[10:18] <justin__> Well one thing
[10:18] <justin__> am I bluetooth enabled on this laptop?>
[10:18] <Anlar> justin__: let me check

[10:18] <barnydan_> Flannel Anlar,  I'm learning as I go.  Something new every day. :D
[10:18] <CrakeHunter> which version is the restricted driver from the restr. dr. manageR?
[10:18] <Flannel> Anlar, barnydan_, ah.  Hmmm.  Well, You might have issues backporting it if other things depend on it.  If you did backport it, and stuff didn't work (since the stuff isn't vital to the system) you'd be able to revert back easily enough.
[10:18] <Abhi123> guys do you suggest using ubuntu server preffered over debian or fedora?
[10:19] <stefg> |chris|: k, lemme read... you read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/hp_dv6000_series_%28dv6116eu%29?highlight=%28dv6000%29#head-dd3315017e3efc368510f9b2b7022f8aeb15451e meanwhile
[10:19] <DShepherd> Abhi123, hehe.. i think most of us are biases to ubuntu server
[10:19] <|chris|> stefg, thank you!
[10:19] <Flannel> Abhi123: use what you're comfortable with.  That's generally more important than anything else.  They can all be configured to behave the same.
[10:19] <DShepherd> s/biases/biased/g
[10:19] <r0b-> would a celeron run Ubuntu + Beryl
[10:19] <Anlar> justin__: yeah. you should be. hardware should work.
[10:19] <Abhi123> DShephered, any good reason?
[10:19] <vexati0n> who has a job opening in seattle for a network tech/admin with competitive wages and full benefits they'd like to give me?
[10:19] <Flannel> r0b-: yep.
[10:20] <arash_> Anyone here are good with sound in Kubuntu (I assume its extacly same for Ubuntu), Sound is only coming out from one single place, though I have several headphones connected...
[10:20] <DShepherd> Abhi123, listen to Flannel
[10:20] <justin__> Okay. Do I just search the forums for instructions on how to pair my phone with it then?
[10:20] <extern> how can I make find -exec not to stop executing if error occured?
[10:20] <DShepherd> Abhi123, just you what your comfortable with
[10:20] <r0b-> would it lag at all Flannel
[10:20] <Abhi123> Flannel, any suggestions?
[10:20] <Anlar> justin__: that'd be the best way to approach that. phones can act weird sometimes etc...
[10:20] <justin__> right. :-)
[10:20] <Flannel> Abhi123: What do you have experience in?  And what sort of server are you looking to run?
[10:20] <justin__> Thanks Anlar.
[10:20] <Abhi123> inmy life time i used slackware and redhat
[10:20] <justin__> you have a great holiday!
[10:21] <hende> justin
[10:21] <Abhi123> Flannel, i will host svn, apache , dns and sendmail
[10:21] <hende> i downloaded the three files but i dont know what to do with them
 try alsamixer to configure your channels.
[10:21] <Michael147> Ropechoborra, okay heres the outline of my problem. I have two machines. A laptop im using now, and a PC. The PC was running windows and the registy became corrupt, i then had to format the whole HD and reinstall windows. Now ive reinstalled windows and cant get onto the net, why?Because i havent got the driver for the ethernet adapter. Now i cant download the driver because i have no internet access on that machine
[10:21] <Michael147> so the problem is installing the driver with no internet access.
[10:21] <Flannel> Abhi123: if you're comfortable with redhat, use redhat.  But with ubuntu you can set most of those up through simply installing via package management (very little post-installation configuration is required)
[10:21] <Nutubuntu> Someone should write a threaded conversation manager for Xchat ;)
[10:22] <Ai-> Abhi123, out of the OS you used, which OS you think is best for server?
[10:22] <Abhi123> Flannel, thats what i am looking for
[10:22] <hero> that would be sweet
[10:22] <Flannel> Michael147: You have internet on another machine?
[10:22] <kbrooks> HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY AMERICANS!!!!
[10:22] <mongolai_> Nutubuntu, that's a sweet idea.
[10:22] <jimqode> is there a software like adobe imageready for linux, that I can use to crop images and export them to a table formatted html?
[10:22] <Dr_willis> kbrooks,  Hmm.. wrong holiday
[10:22] <arash_> dodo - where is alsamixer?
[10:22] <Flannel> kbrooks: independance day, not memorial day.  and that's -offtopic.
[10:22] <Abhi123> ai, i would go with Redhat
[10:22] <Ropechoborra> Michael147 connect the laptop to the internet :)
[10:22] <Michael147> Flannel, i have the internet access on this machine, obviously. Not the other one.
[10:22] <kbrooks> Flannel, oh, thanks.
[10:23] <hende> could someone please help me
[10:23] <Flannel> jimqode: gimp should be able to do that, yes.  Actually, I think Fspot might too.  Not really sure.
[10:23] <Anlar> jimqode: you might want to take a look at that f-spot, it is good for pics and usually exports to flickr, google picasa, etc.. I think it also should do you html standalone page
[10:23] <Michael147> The laptop is connected, im on it now.
[10:23] <Flannel> Michael147: right.  So, do you know what packages you need to download/install?
[10:23] <Nutubuntu> Michael147,  do you know which driver the Win machine needs?
[10:23] <Ai-> Thanks Abhi123, I had a feeling Redhat dominants in server business line
[10:23] <stefg> |chris|: so far it seems the USB controller is recognized and drivers are loaded. What are you trying to connect to it?
[10:23] <Dr_willis> hende,  ask a question. and see what happens.
[10:23] <hende> i have
[10:23] <Michael147> Flannel, no not really.
[10:23] <hero> kbrooks: thanks, next time i'll be sure to send you a patriot too

[10:23] <Ropechoborra> Michael147 lol, sorry.
[10:23] <hende> i have a laptop and a wireless network i just downloaded ubuntu and its not picking up my wireless card. brb
[10:23] <Flannel> Michael147: that's got some stuff to do to figure out what you need to do
[10:24] <kbrooks> hero, what? :-)
[10:24] <pyrak> here's me situation: I'm setting up on a fresh hd, just installed windows, and i want to install ubuntu.  I still have my ubuntu installation on a disc that's in an external enclosure.  Do i want to install ubuntu from the cd then replace all the files with my backup, or can i just plop the backup on the hd, make a swap partition, and install the bootloader manually?
[10:24] <Dr_willis> hende,  #1 - find what wireless card ya got. #2 - check the ubuntu wiki/forums for that card/laptop. Other then that. I dont mess with wireless. sorry.
[10:24] <Flannel> Michael147: and also might get you up and running even without additional packages.  If you need ndiswrapper, you'll have to sneakernet it, but even that's no big deal.
[10:24] <Ai-> I'm trying out Ubuntu Server and see how it is
[10:24] <Dr_willis> wireless is such a pain
[10:24] <justin__> I just have to install the software for it! Thanks anlar...

[10:25] <justin__> Yes hende?
[10:25] <Abhi123> Ai, i am just goingto install ubuntu server
[10:25] <Nutubuntu> kbrooks,  sneakernet means put it on a memory stick or floppy or cd and walk to the computer with it
[10:25] <Flannel> kbrooks: You put [data]  on some physical medium (USB, disk, etc), then walk (on your sneakers) to the other comput
[10:25] <hende> i know you told me to download those three files what do i do with them
[10:25] <foxjazz> sorry went to the online stuff. Yikes
[10:25] <hende> i dont understand the help quide
[10:25] <kbrooks> Flannel, why [ ... ]  ?
[10:25] <sam_> sneakernet can take a really long time, depending on the package dependencies
[10:25] <foxjazz> how do you make a browser open when you click on a link?
[10:26] <kbrooks> Flannel, ah, i do that sometimes like at school.
[10:26] <stefg> |chris|: unpluf that drive for a moment and check if lsusb still hangs, when there's nothing plugged in
[10:26] <helter>  hi

[10:26] <Michael147> Flannel, thanks alot.
[10:26] <kbrooks> Flannel, again, why [ ... ]  ?
[10:26] <hende> justin did you get that
[10:26] <Nutubuntu> How worried should I be about a kernel Oops that did not lock up the computer, and that (so far) has not happened again? Running Feisty on a dual-core a64.
[10:26] <mikeconcepts> I just moved a large hard drive from one computer to another as a slave and need to know how to access it, from xubuntu 7.04 to ubuntu 6.10
[10:26] <|chris|> stefg, lsusb still hangs
[10:26] <Flannel> sam_: If youve got more complicated things, there are places to help.  AptOnCD can get you a whole CD full of resolved goodness.  there are also some sites that'll do it for you to download as well.
[10:26] <Michael147> Ropechoborra, guess what?Faulty stick in the drive. Ive got another one on its way now, how long will you be on?
[10:27] <Flannel> kbrooks: because they could be packages, pictures, whatever.  but again, this is offtopic.
[10:27] <Ropechoborra> Michael147 I thought it could be that :), well... with the other one there will be no problem
[10:27] <kbrooks> Flannel, ok.

[10:27] <foxjazz> how do you make a browser open when you click on a link?
[10:28] <Abhi123> Flannel, i have a logitech cordless keyboard
[10:28] <Abhi123> ubuntu installation doesnt support that?
[10:28] <Michael147> Ropechoborra, would an Mp3 player be fine?I need to use some sort of removable media to transfer the driver bettween boxes.
[10:28] <Sonicadvance1> Hey look I'm converting someone to Ubuntu
[10:28] <Anlar> mikeconcepts: use ie. cat /proc/partitions to see where on earth it went, it might not be sdb1 ?
[10:28] <sam_> Flannel: thanks, but I resolved the problem a while ago and just switched to wired internet
[10:28] <Jowi> foxjazz, in which application and in which environment?
[10:28] <hende> see
[10:28] <mongolai_> Nutubuntu, if you're not running a mission-critical application, I wouldn't worry too much
[10:28] <hende> nobody wants to help with wifi
[10:28] <Dag_> Hello!
[10:28] <Nutubuntu> mikeconcepts, could you be trying to mount the wrong device somehow?
[10:28] <timmak> I have created a ubuntu server with ssh connected to a router but i am unable to connect the server is running on a g3 imac can anyone hlp?
[10:28] <Nutubuntu> mongolai_,  thanks : )
[10:28] <viktor> helloooooooooo
[10:29] <foxjazz> Jowi: I want firefox to open, and am using x86_64
[10:29] <stefg> |chris|: to rule out hardware failure: Can you boot the Desktop CD and check if lsusb hangs there, too?
[10:29] <Nutubuntu> mikeconcepts,  is the drive in question an IDE device or a SATA device?
[10:29] <foxjazz> Jowi: gnome
[10:29] <Jowi> foxjazz, you want firefox to open when you click on a link in which application?

[10:30] <|chris|> stefg, it works in windows....
[10:30] <viktor> hi
[10:30] <mikeconcepts> /proc/partitions shows hdb and hdb1
[10:30] <earthling> what could cause a partition's name to change.  like sda9 becoming sda8.
[10:30] <Jowi> foxjazz, ...since konversation is a qt/kde app it's probably in a qt/kde settings manager somewhere.
[10:30] <Michael147> Ropechoborra, would an Mp3 player be fine for trannsfering the driver bettween machines?
[10:30] <stefg> |chris|: ok, i see. hmmm...
[10:30] <LinkinPark>     
[10:30] <foxjazz> Jowi: wheres' the qt settings manager
[10:31] <viktor> hi
[10:31] <Jowi> foxjazz, but I don't use qt/kde apps so I don't know
[10:31] <mongolai> Michael147, give it a shot!

[10:39] <rustalot> hey, does anybody know a good (Free) vector icon set
[10:39] <eboyjr> muzaki, thanks for the tip
[10:39] <genii> |dal|:  Normally to let unpriveleged users mount something you need to put as an option "user" in the fstab or in the command line of mount
[10:39] <DigitalNinja> I'm trying to find a disk imaging package. I was looking into one but I din't remember the name of it. The one I'm thinking of was able to burn the image to a CD or DVD

[10:40] <Michael147> Ropechoborra, how am i going to transfer the files?

[10:40] <hende> can someone help  me with this i cant learn just by reading it

[10:44] <DigitalNinja> that's the software I was thinking of
[10:44] <mariocesar_bo> There's something i am missing? i follow all the steps, on the help.ubuntu.com
[10:45] <genii> |dal|:  fstab should be something like: /dev/hdxx /mountplace/yadda ext3 defaults,users 0 0
[10:45] <timmak> you might have unmount other partitions
[10:45] <|chris|> stefg, I didn't see anything bad... here is the pastbin http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28543/
[10:45] <genii> user or users SHOULD be synonyms
[10:45] <Michael147> Ropechoborra, Yeah i thought that might do the trick lol
[10:45] <linas_> I'm working on some patches to initrd so that I can get raid working on ubuuntu ... who should I contact to deliver these?
[10:45] <Michael147> Ropechoborra, and how would i find out the model of the exact driver i needed?
[10:46] <val_> i got an error 17 partition ...in grub,,,,im wondering if reinstalling would be more effective
[10:47] <fribuntu> Hi all
[10:47] <Mattz0r> hey
[10:47] <mrunagi> anyone here running an osx like dock?
[10:47] <|dal|> genii, didn't have the defaults option in there, and i had changed users to user, but added it and changed it back and still the same thing, can mount as a nonroot user but the mountpoint becomes root owned and grouped on mount
[10:47] <fribuntu> can somone tell me where the documentation is put if you install "freeglut-dev"?
[10:48] <eboyjr> mrunagi, I have one but im not running it
[10:48] <stefg> |chris|: so the usb hardware in the machine is set up correctly. what i find interesting is the trouble with /dev/sdc. is that the external drive?
[10:48] <hende> ok so i tried hardlining my computer to my router and it still wont let me use the web it is picking it up but it still wont work
[10:48] <Dr_willis> fribuntu,  fire up synaptic, select the package, right click, properties.. see what files it has where.
[10:48] <foxjazz> how do you open an program as su (like komodo edit 4
[10:49] <vexati0n> o.O
[10:49] <fribuntu> I somethimes wonder why they even bother putting all those directories under /usr/share/doc, if all they ever put there is a "changes" and a "copyright" document.
[10:49] <|chris|> stefg, I think so
[10:49] <vexati0n> is there a visible difference between 24-bit and 32-bit color depth?
[10:49] <val_> if i have a drive that is booting to / and i want it to boot to mbr instead,,,how do i do that
[10:49] <calder_1> can enybody help me?
[10:49] <levi__> just installed ubuntu sound not working, new to linux..
[10:49] <Jowi> foxjazz, "sudo programname"

[10:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dvd::rip - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:50] <Ehaic> does anyone know any different repositories?
[10:50] <nichola1> anyone know where digital cameras show up in the file system, they don't show up in media
[10:50] <foxjazz> vexati0n: How do you find the program name?
[10:50] <Jowi> foxjazz, ah sorry. you wanted another user. "sudo -u username command"
[10:50] <mdszepher> What's the best c++ compiler available?
[10:50] <stefg> |chris| : hmmm... so just do a plain reboot, don't connect anything to the USB and check, if lsusb still hangs after that (This is: a clean machine, nothing connected to USB)
[10:50] <Skiguy> hey all. i'm having a strange problem with my sound on my Dell Inspirion 8500. It plays fine, but it won't play through the sound output on my docking station. Is there a way to change the plug to which ubuntu pipes my tunes?
[10:51] <fribuntu> mdszepher: I'd suggest using the gcc
[10:51] <foxjazz> Jowi: actaully sudo would work find if I could figure out the program name
[10:51] <|chris|> stefg, cool be right back
[10:51] <fribuntu> mdszepher: although it is unclear to me, what you mean by "best".
[10:51] <imbecile> what do i use to defragment?
[10:51] <hende> does anyone know anything about wifi
[10:51] <mdszepher> well, just a compiler that works
[10:51] <genii> |dal|:  Well, this is usual. The permissions of a mounted ext filesystem will be the same as who owned them previously. If you need to put stuff or change stuff there you will still need to either give the user that is mounting it sudo/su privelege then use that prior to writing there, or make some(or all) of the mount belong to the user
[10:51] <hende> cause it seems like no one can help me
[10:51] <mdszepher> best as in what would peopel reccomend?
[10:51] <fribuntu> imbecile: unzip?
[10:52] <mdszepher> *people
[10:52] <fribuntu> mdszepher: gcc certainly works.
[10:52] <Michael147> Ropechoborra, how would i find out the exact driver im going to need?
[10:52] <m1r> hende, what card u have ?
[10:52] <levi__> hende whats up
[10:52] <genii> |dal|: or writeable to all (eg 777 priveleges)
[10:52] <Michael147> find out what*
[10:52] <imbecile> fribuntu,  no to get rid of spaces on a harddrive so everything is next to eachother and run better

[11:03] <Jimmio> I have a question... my cdburning drive plays cds with cracking noises in the background..
[11:03] <kitche> cr9c1: dpkg -l
[11:03] <jonah> i've asked already guys, sorry -  is there any reason my system should be just locking up freezing and you can't move the mouse. it can do it after a day or within ten mins of turning on - don't know how to replicate it - i use amd64 bit feisty
[11:03] <Jimmio> but my dvd drive plays them fine
[11:03] <sethglickman> stefg: thanks
[11:03] <cr9c1> thanks kitche, i'll try that
[11:03] <cr9c1> that'll show me only the packages i've installed?
[11:03] <stefg> |chris| so what happened?
[11:03] <SleepyLemur> steel_lady: I think you're confused, track info isn't encoded on a standard audio cd
[11:04] <desi4life> i just installed ubuntu today
[11:04] <Jimmio> is it because I don't have an audio cable coming out of the burner?
[11:04] <desi4life> and so far so good...

[11:04] <jussi01> jonah: sounds like its over heating... is that a possibility?
[11:04] <hende> hello mlrt
[11:04] <sethglickman> brodick: thank you too
[11:04] <BrodicK> sethglickman:  no prob
[11:05] <m1r> hende, pastebin ?
[11:05] <lapinferoce> hello to all
[11:05] <jonah> jussi01, it doesn't reboot or switch off though, just screen locks up - is that what it would do?
[11:05] <hende> i cant its on another comp
[11:05] <m1r> damn :/
[11:05] <kitche> BrodicK: well dhcpcd or dhclient is a root special program only root can run it
[11:05] <hende> im on a desktop im trying to fix my laptop
[11:05] <jussi01> jonah: yeah..
[11:05] <m1r> can u check what chipset is your broadcom card ?
[11:05] <hende> can u give me a example
[11:05] <BrodicK> kitche: but the user is also a super user
[11:06] <Truman> Hey, if I wanted to change the ownership of a mounted volume from root to my own account, wouldn't the command be "chown <user> <mount path>"?
[11:06] <kitche> BrodicK: sudo dhclient or sudo dhcpcd depending on the program your trying to run
[11:06] <jonah> jussi01, wow really - it wouldnt switch off then? that's mad - how can i prevent it
[11:06] <Dr_willis> Truman,  in many cases thats Not correct. This is a vfat/ntfs mounted volume?
[11:06] <mrunagi> anyone here using awn?
[11:06] <BrodicK> kitche: im only trying to connect to the dhcp server
[11:07] <hende> what would it say for example mlr
[11:07] <ricardo> fdfgddgdg
[11:07] <Dr_willis> Truman,  in fact - i think in most cases that wont work right even with ext2/3/
[11:07] <jussi01> jonah: Im not certain thats it, but its similar to my issue. what are your specs?
[11:07] <Truman> Dr_Willis No, I think it's HFS+
[11:07] <kitche> BrodicK: what do you mean by connect
[11:07] <BrodicK> kitche: im using the same version of ubuntu on my laptop and its working fine
[11:07] <Dr_willis> Truman,  think? heh 'sudo fdisk -l' to check
[11:07] <KenSentMe> What is the Xfce equivalent of 'Connect to server' using ssh in Gnome?
[11:07] <m1r> hende, try : lspci | grep Broadcom
[11:07] <Oni-Dracula> anyone know where the official pidgin IRC is?
[11:07] <BrodicK> kitche: i meant..connecting to the network using dhcp instead of using static IP
[11:07] <Dr_willis> Truman,  then most likely you will need to use the proper mount options to give ownership to a user.
[11:07] <kitche> KennethP: umm ssh the command
[11:08] <jonah> jussi01, amd64 4800+, 4gb ram, 400gb sata hard disk, couple of cd drives, card reader - what else do you need?
[11:08] <DShepherd> Oni-Dracula, its on freenode.... #pidgin
[11:08] <kitche> BrodicK: ok as I told you sudo dhclient will give you a dhcp ip
[11:08] <lauriexxx> any body got a good site on wifi on a hp pavillion zd 8000 by chance?
[11:08] <Truman> Dr_Willis:  It says "Unknow; it's the "Macintosh HD" and formatted that way, which I think is HFS+
[11:08] <BrodicK> ok will try..thanks kitche
[11:08] <DShepherd> lauriexxx, tried the ubuntu forums?
[11:08] <jussi01> jonah: hmmm, Im sorry, i dont know the answer, I have a laptop...
[11:08] <sethglickman> stefg: i just followed those directions, but it's still not working
[11:08] <Truman> Dr_Willis:  I'm dual-booting on a macbook, and what I'm really trying to do is get it to allow me to write to the mac's partition
[11:09] <lauriexxx> DSheperd: of course, nobody has done it yet...
[11:09] <sethglickman> stefg: for dvd playback, if you remember
[11:09] <DShepherd> lauriexxx, oh, ok
[11:09] <Dr_willis> Truman,   I think os-x can read/write to ext2/3 now a days :)  Ive not messed with one however. so cant help ya much more then this

[11:12] <kitche> Liz_: with ntfs-3g yes
[11:12] <Liz_> oooh, how do i do that?
[11:13] <genii> kitche You can use chainloading where you have for instance a hard drive which previously was the only one in the system with linux installed which you want to use in a box booting some other distro/version

[11:14] <Truman> Dr_willis:  In terminal if I'm in the /media directory and I do ls, it shows me the mounted mac partition, but it won't let me cd into it .. why is that?
[11:14] <Jowi> swooney, that I don't know. I'm not running gnome here. perhaps there is a setting in gconf-editor somewhere.
[11:15] <genii> kitche This is true, but it preserves the ability to yank the drive and boot it again in solitary on another box without reinstalling grub etc

[11:22] <Jimmio> can anyone help out?
[11:22] <arooni_> thanks DShepherd
[11:22] <DShepherd> arooni_, sudo dpkg -i file.deb
[11:22] <Jowi> swooney, you can also have a look in /etc/acpi/
[11:22] <DShepherd> arooni_, no prob
[11:22] <Sonicadvance1> ah, I also need a UPnP server that works with Xbox 360 :P
[11:22] <arooni_> is there a limewire like piece of software fo r ubuntu?
[11:22] <hende> brb
[11:22] <kitche> piero: fromw hat i seen the getflash page just has a button you press to download flash there's no where to pick what arch you want
[11:22] <m1r> hende
[11:22] <DShepherd> arooni_, yes... frostwire
[11:22] <HyperCity> how do i setup the JAVA_HOME evoirment variable?
[11:22] <m1r> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=197102&highlight=broadcom+4318
[11:22] <DShepherd> !info frostwire
[11:22] <ubotu> Package frostwire does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[11:22] <PriceChild> !frostwire | arooni_
[11:22] <ubotu> arooni_: frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[11:23] <stefg> arooni_: you can run azureus fine on your machine, if you need all the bells and whistles. But it's still a java-app. deluge isn't that advanced yet, but not such a resource hog as azureus
[11:23] <desi4life> hey all
[11:23] <kitche> piero: where are you getting your flashplayer from?
[11:23] <Jimmio> arooni_: FrostWire and LimeWire both work in ubuntu I believe, Frostwire is better
[11:23] <swooney> Jowi: alright well thanks for all your help, I didn't even know about gconf-editor so that is great
[11:23] <desi4life> i have a wireless keyboard which is connected via usb receiver
[11:23] <lapinferoce> JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/
[11:23] <wday> arooni_, btdowncurses in screen works
[11:23] <M_> arooni_: I wouldn't use limewire, personally, especially if you're on a college network
[11:23] <Jowi> swooney, /etc/acpi/events/powerbtn points to /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh. I guess you can either modify/make a new script that it points to otherwise.
[11:23] <wday> arooni_, plus you can detach it and all that good screenness
[11:23] <desi4life> when ubuntu gets to login screen it take about 10secs before the keyboard starts working

[11:24] <Jowi> swooney, no probs. good luck

[11:26] <Evilbadwrong> Hello...I can't seem to get my ATI video card to work properly in Ubuntu. All the solutions I've seen on the forums haven't worked. Can anyone help me?
[11:26] <dc2447> Evilbadwrong: buy nvidia
[11:26] <M_> Evilbadwrong: what's exactly wrong?
[11:26] <ubuntu> This is really good... I'm running the Live CD
[11:26] <M_> Evilbadwrong: more detail is always good:)

[11:27] <arooni_> what should i do?
[11:27] <kitche> Evilbadwrong: are you sure it's not loading?
[11:28] <Evilbadwrong> It keeps using Mesa instead of ATI in the fglrx
[11:28] <stefg> !find libboost-thread
[11:28] <swooney> Jowi: okay yeah I think this powerbtn.sh is just what I need! any clue if I have to do something other than save, to get the changes to work

[11:28] <kitche> Evilbadwrong: well your driver is loaded just that the accleration is still using mesa
[11:28] <Evilbadwrong> I can't get 3d acceleration....oh ok
[11:28] <ubuntu> Hello... I need some help!
[11:28] <Jowi> swooney, just to let you know. /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh first checks if gnome-power-manager is running and if it is let it handle the power button (so gconf-editor is the right place to look first of all). if gnome-power-manager is not running then a standard shutdown is initiated.
[11:28] <arooni_> stefg:  which package(s) should i install?
[11:28] <stefg> arooni_: sudo apt-get -f install
[11:29] <ubuntu> I'm trying to install, but what is the recommended partition size for ubuntu??
[11:29] <HyperCity> lapinferoce: i get EXPORT command not found
[11:29] <dc2447> Evilbadwrong: if you want hardware acceleration that isn't a pita on Linux - get Nvidia - how much is that going to cost 15 quid?
[11:29] <kitche> Evilbadwrong: I m not great with ATI sicne I won't touch it in Linux but indeed the help that is on the wiki should fix it
[11:29] <M_> ubuntu: well, how much space do you have available?
[11:29] <swooney> Jowi: yeah my plan was to just stick "closure && exit 0" before that first if, where 'closure' is the command I want to run. does that make sense?
[11:29] <arooni_> stefg: so taht dloads everything that i stopped any installation from installing in the past?
[11:30] <Evilbadwrong> kitche: No, I tried that solution. It doesn't work. I guess Ubuntu/ATI just don't support each other.
[11:30] <stefg> arooni_: EXACTLY
[11:30] <HyperCity> lapinferoce: pls help
[11:30] <kitche> Evilbadwrong: ATI don't support Linux at all really yes

[11:31] <Jowi> swooney, should work. it's a basic sh script so you can run whatever you want instead of shutting down.
[11:31] <milllmannn> is there a command to list all users in the system?
[11:31] <milllmannn> not just logged in, but all users that have been created?

[11:31] <KiwiNZ_sucks> it's not a mouse thing, it's a konqueror thing
[11:32] <stefg> arooni_: just just deluge, and there should be a menu entry
[11:32] <dc2447> milllmannn: cat /etc/passwd | cut -d : -f 1
[11:32] <Jowi> swooney, try it with something harmless first of all like "zenity --info --text 'powerbutton pressed' "
[11:33] <KiwiNZ_sucks> arooni, deluge is busted in feisty
[11:33] <KiwiNZ_sucks> you'll have to build it yourself if you want it to work
[11:33] <ubuntu> I'm trying to install, but what is the recommended partition size for ubuntu? Thanks...
[11:33] <KiwiNZ_sucks> the official site even tells you not to install from the ubuntu repos
[11:33] <stefg> KiwiNZ_sucks: so how comes it works for me ?

[11:33] <compengi> who knows what's the X restart command in terminal?
[11:33] <KiwiNZ_sucks> stefg, dunno, it worked for me once, then not again after i rebuilt
[11:33] <hende> alright im back
[11:33] <ubuntu> About 20GB on the boot drive, R...
[11:33] <Jowi> compengi, sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart
[11:34] <foxjazz> compengi: reboot
[11:34] <dc2447> compengi: /etc/init.gdm restart
[11:34] <R_> ubuntu: Are you planning to dual-boot or just use linux?
[11:34] <compengi> Jowi, okay thanks
[11:34] <swooney> Jowi: it doesn't seem like my changes are taking effect, any idea if that script is cached somewhere
[11:34] <dc2447> rather /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[11:34] <ubuntu> Dual-boot... it's a 40 GB partition, but has XP on it too...
[11:34] <OldPink> Outta here. http://www.mbhoy.com/contact if you need me :D
[11:34] <hende> mlr
[11:34] <desi4life> anyone willing to help ?
[11:35] <Jowi> swooney, no idea. this is the first time I've even looked for what handles the power button :)
[11:35] <con-man> are there any opensource stuff I can use in linux to connect to a vent server?

[11:35] <ax1s> anyone here know how to get grub to notice the new kernel i installed
[11:35] <ax1s> i don't see an initrd for it
[11:36] <ax1s> i did .. sudo apt-get install linux-k7
[11:36] <R_> ubuntu: There should be some much better online guides for how to set up the partitions in the initial install, i just don't remember where they are
[11:36] <desi4life> when i get to logon screen my usb keyboard and mouse do not work for 10+ secs
[11:36] <Liz_> ok, i'm back, i have ntfs-3g installed, however "write support for internal drive" is grayed out.. why is that?
[11:36] <stefg> !generic | ax1s

[11:36] <desi4life> and then it finally is detected or initialized and it starts to work
[11:36] <ubuntu> R: Ok, thanks! I'll give that a try to start with... I have a Partition resize program...
[11:36] <desi4life> is there a way i can do anything to kill this delay
[11:36] <kitche> desi4life: it's due to your bios nothing to do with ubuntu
[11:36] <R_> ubuntu: Np,good luck...actually, if you give me one sec i should be able to find the guide I used
[11:36] <ax1s> thx stefg
[11:37] <desi4life> but bios has it working right away
[11:37] <desi4life> this is at the ubuntu logon screen
[11:37] <ubuntu> Thanks, R...
[11:37] <desi4life> i can get to my bios settings using the del key and the keyboard is working at that point
[11:37] <foxjazz> desi4life: never had a problem with it... try reconfigure
[11:37] <mrunagi> is it possible to write to ntfs from ubuntu?
[11:37] <foxjazz> mrunagi: Yes

[11:37] <mrunagi> ty
[11:38] <Liz_> thanks ubotu, i'll read that
[11:38] <ax1s> Okay, well that explains why there aren't different releases for different cores.. but if i wanted to do this manually

[11:39] <derrik> Has anyone had the problem of the menu bar disappearing when you enable desktop effects?
[11:39] <ubuntu> Thanks R, that looks like very useful reading... I'll look it over now :)
[11:39] <R_> ubuntu: No problem, have fun!
[11:39] <ax1s> desi: are you talking about the 3 second pause of GRUB
[11:40] <stefg> dredhammer: have you messed with /etc/hosts or /etc/hostname ?
[11:40] <dredhammer> not that i am aware of stefg
[11:40] <pc13> How can I execute a bash script on boot ?
[11:40] <dredhammer> but i was trying to setup tor
[11:40] <ubuntu> R: Will do, I'll try and return here with my full install! Thanks again :)
[11:40] <dredhammer> thats the only thing that uses 8118 and 127.0.0.1
[11:41] <ibanex> does anyone have a suggestion for a free internet tv streamer application?
[11:41] <dredhammer> i didn't try to use apt with it
[11:41] <R_> ubuntu: best of luck to you!
[11:41] <desi4life> no i have my grub set to 10 secs
[11:41] <desi4life> and that is working fine
[11:41] <dredhammer> just firefox
[11:41] <desi4life> its at the prompt to enter my username
[11:41] <ax1s> ibanex: i don't even know what a tv streamer application is
[11:41] <desi4life> and i cant do anything for good 10+secs
[11:41] <ibanex> ax1s: ie. joost, zattoo
[11:41] <stefg> dredhammer: so for good measure look into both files and check they agree on what your hostname is. look into /etc/network/interfaces as well to see if the lo -interface is there
[11:42] <con-man> are there any opensource stuff I can use in linux to connect to a vent server?
[11:42] <CrakeHunter> hello, 2 question: a) i installed Ubuntu on a different disc than my xp partition. grub doesnt show the windows partition. how should i start win now? b) is pidgin available in any repositories - cant find it)

[11:43] <Michael147> People im in desperate need of help. I have two machines, a laptop and a PC. My PC ran windows and my registry became corrupt, i then had to re-install the OS. Once i had re-installed i had no internet access because i havent got the NIC driver i need. Now the only place you can download this driver is from MS. So away i went on my linux box to download it and it turns out i cant because im a linux user running opera
[11:43] <Michael147>  instead of IE(No surprises there then). Now i need somebody to go to the MS website who is using windows, download the driver for me and upload it to an FTP server for me to go and download so i can install it on my other machine. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
[11:43] <con-man> omg

[11:52] <ax1s> hende: what's it about
[11:52] <littlegator> kitche: is there any way to find the path to an exe other than just looking through the folders?
[11:52] <hende> wifi
[11:52] <ax1s> okay
[11:53] <hende> i cant recognize my connection even with it hardlined to the router

[11:53] <ax1s> hende: oh no i can't
[11:53] <desi4life> man how come all these players are either too small and if you make them bigger it looks all pixelized
[11:53] <hende> i tried going to add programs and adding a network manager it wont work
[11:53] <desi4life> is there an option to increase the window size
[11:53] <stefg> fourbit_: that depends on your hardware and your usage scenario.... generally newer is better, and there's already  one year of the 3-year LTS-period over for dapper
[11:53] <ax1s> hende: join channel hende
[11:53] <littlegator> desi4life, that means the video is small >_>

[11:55] <stefg> !grub | CrakeHunter
[11:55] <ubotu> CrakeHunter: 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
[11:55] <fourbit_> stefg: thank you
[11:56] <stefg> fourbit_: what kind of box you got there?
[11:56] <stu-mc> can anyone explain to me what this line is trying to do and why i get a permisson denied when trying to do it. sudo echo 'pwcheck_method: saslauthd' >> /etc/postfix/sasl/smtpd.conf
[11:56] <Abhilash> may i know what is the default file permission for /etc/network/interfaces
[11:56] <fourbit_> It's a hodgepodge.
[11:56] <mdszepher> How do I open an application that doesn't have a frontend?
[11:56] <lufis> stu-mc: are you sure you should be using the apostrophes?
[11:56] <Abhilash> i changed it.. now want to revert back
[11:57] <fourbit_> asus a7n8x board
[11:57] <lufis> mdszepher: command line :)
[11:57] <littlegator> kitche: my filepath has spaces in it, how do I do that in terminal? >_> sorry I'm a noob
[11:57] <mdszepher> obviously, but what are the commands?
[11:57] <stu-mc> lufis: search me, im copying of a guide
[11:57] <cr9c1> does anyone know how to install the boot splash on ubuntu server 7.04?
[11:57] <mdszepher> I'm new from Windows, so this is a "little" different :p
[11:57] <kitche> littlegator: escape the spaces with either " around the path or \<space>
[11:57] <lufis> mdszepher: well, that depends on the software...
[11:57] <CrakeHunter> im sorry i dont understand the grub help. which lines do i have to add?
[11:57] <Abhilash> can anybody please check the permission for /etc/network/interfaces
[11:57] <stu-mc> lufis: ill try without
[11:57] <Abhilash> in ubuntu server
[11:58] <fourbit_> stefg: asus a7n8x board.
[11:58] <mdszepher> just a beginner's guide to the terminal would be a start
[11:58] <milllmannn> how do i write the file when i perform visudo
[11:58] <Flannel> !cli | mdszepher
[11:58] <ubotu> mdszepher: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[11:58] <mdszepher> thanks
[11:58] <sindre> hey... anyone that can help me with a sound card problem?... it worked just fine until i turned on my pc today, got no sound at all:/...
[11:58] <Flannel> milllmannn: ^O (at the bottom) means ctrl-O, that's save.  ^X is exit
[11:58] <genii> Abhilash:  -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 194 2007-06-06 08:04 /etc/network/interfaces
[11:58] <lufis> mdszepher: you type in commands and the command line runs them... you've got to know the name of the command though
[11:58] <stu-mc> lufis: still the same its as if it cant write to the location, is it just tryiing to push that text into that file ?
[11:58] <Abhilash> thanks genii
[11:59] <genii> Abhilash: np
[11:59] <lufis> stu-mc: well, you could just open it up in a text editor and do it manually
[11:59] <cr9c1> anyone off the top of their head know how to turn on/install the ubuntu splash screen on ubuntu server
[11:59] <stu-mc> lufis: thats what i thought. thanks
[11:59] <fourbit_> stefg: I use it in my business. Web hosting etc.
[11:59] <lufis> stu-mc: gksudo gedit /etc/postfix/sasl/smtpd.conf
[11:59] <andruk> starcraft wont run on wine.  it complains about directx 5.  help?
[11:59] <kitche> !usplash | cr9c1
[11:59] <jawes> slm
[11:59] <ubotu> cr9c1: To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[12:00] <milllmannn> thanks!
[12:00] <jawes> hiiii
[12:00] <kitche> cr9c1: probably have to install usplash as well
[12:00] <stefg> fourbit_: oh, so for server use? yeah, should be the right choice. On the desktop side dapper starts to look oldish (firefox 1.5 e.g.)
[12:00] <Recon> if i wanted to reinstall gnome desktop from the commandline how would i do it, would like to keep the menus to my apps though?
[12:00] <lufis> Recon: from kde?
