[12:01] <endo> `Nick: why does that make it bad?
[12:01] <legalsized> should I boot off the live cd and see if I have a connection?
[12:01] <Lunks> could someone help me running mldonkey on startup? "run at startup" checkbox didn't work.
[12:01] <nich0s> Hey all, I have a problem when I attempt to boot, I keep getting this very low resolution error message telling me that xserver isn't configured correctly. Can someone help me.
[12:01] <Ricket> jo3nix: okay so I found a thread which said to install Emerald and then run "compiz --replace -c emerald --replace" - this works, but of course after a reboot it's back to no borders. how do I make that permanent?
[12:01] <littlegator> pricechild: I think they're removed, but what was the command to install ubuntu-desktop again?
[12:01] <knightz_> i even got ms office 2007 to work in ubuntu
[12:01] <Jordan_U> nich0s, What did you do to try to fix the resolution?
[12:02] <`Nick> endo: didn't say it does
[12:02] <hacosta> this is the whole message
[12:02] <PriceChild> littlegator, "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" but that may take us to where we were...

[12:02] <Stormx2> legalsized: Not really. I'm trying to work through the issue with you...
[12:02] <kitche> !paste | hacosta
[12:02] <ubotu> hacosta: 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)

[12:02] <hacosta> gnome-system-tools [2.14.0-0ubuntu11 (now)] 
[12:02] <kitche> umm can someone mute hacosta
[12:02] <nich0s> I believe an intel
[12:02] <Stormx2> legalsized: You are connected via an ethernet cable to your router, yeah?
[12:02] <nich0s> It's in an IBM Netfinity.
[12:03] <Jordan_U> nich0s, Have you tried installing the -intel driver?
[12:03] <Ricket> lol hacosta got owned.
[12:03] <nich0s> Jordan_U: I wouldn't even begin to know how.
[12:03] <knoppix> hey everyone. I bought a new hp desktop with integrated 802.11 support and installed kubuntu on it, iwconfig lists wlan0 and wmaster0 as two interfaces that support scanning. iwlist scan shows the correct essid. But i am not able to get an ip. Rebootng into vista gets me an ip, so i am completely lost. can anyone help me out
[12:03] <knightz_> there is a common mistake with dell b130 wireless
[12:03] <Jordan_U> nich0s, Ok, do you know how to install packages in Ubuntu?
[12:03] <knightz_> don't use bmwl5.inf
[12:04] <nich0s> Jordan_U: Not from prompt./
[12:04] <legalsized> yes
[12:04] <legalsized> connected via ethernet cable
[12:04] <legalsized> to router
[12:04] <endo> `Nick: what were you trying to get across then? that I can run it in wine :P
[12:04] <PriceChild> !paste > hacosta
[12:04] <`Nick> endo: that it slows down your computer like ... um nevermind :)
[12:04] <Stormx2> legalsized: Okay. Sounds like your network just needs a little configuration under ubuntu.
[12:05] <alex-weej> knoppix: which version of Ubuntu?
[12:05] <legalsized> ok
[12:05] <knightz_> how can i increase the wireless mtu'S?
[12:05] <Jordan_U> nich0s, Oh, forgot you are stuck at a terminal, ok, from a terminal run these commands to install and configure the driver first: "sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel " then run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh" and choose "intel" as the driver
[12:05] <Ricket> I am not sure of this terminology, but how do I make the command "compiz --replace -c emerald --replace" permanent? That command only replaces compiz for the current session, and after a reboot, the old compiz with problems is back...
[12:05] <legalsized> I've got adress, network and gateway typed in
[12:05] <knoppix> dapper
[12:05] <nich0s> Jordan_U: I'll try that.  Be right back.
[12:06] <knoppix> oh sorry..fiesty
[12:06] <legalsized> sorry address, netmask and gateway
[12:06] <Stormx2> legalsized: System > Administration >  Network. Enter your password when prompted. Make sure "wired connection" has a check in the box on the left.
[12:06] <knightz_> how can i increase the wireless mtu'S? anybody?
[12:06] <Jordan_U> knoppix, Do you know what chipset the card uses?
[12:06] <knoppix> ralink
[12:06] <legalsized> ok
[12:07] <alex-weej> knoppix: if you're using Feisty, you should probably be using NetworkManager, not messing around with iwconfig - what happens when you try to connect to an AP via NetworkManager?
[12:07] <Stormx2> legalsized: Also check that the info you entered (IP, subnet mask, gateway) is the same as under windows (Start > Run > "cmd" > OK > "ipconfig" > enter)
[12:07] <legalsized> ahhh.
[12:07] <legalsized> be right back
[12:07] <knightz_> in windows I can increase the power but how do I do tat in ubuntu?
[12:07] <alex-weej> knoppix: pm me your answer
[12:07] <knoppix> it doesnt connect.. i can view the network essid.. but when i try to connect it fails
[12:07] <alex-weej> knoppix: same problem as me with ralink, pm me
[12:08] <kitche> knightz_: man iwconfig will tell you how since I haven't played with the radio stuff in my wireless in a while
[12:08] <danfg> daan: found it! i just have to use update-java-alternatives to choose which java to use, yay! thanks :)
[12:08] <knoppix> any ideas?
[12:08] <littlegator> pricechild: Do you have any idea?
[12:08] <nich0s> Jordan_U: I entered that information, shall I reboot?
[12:08] <alex-weej> knoppix: do you know how to check your kernel log?
[12:08] <endo> `Nick: yeah, I see what you're trying to say. OK. But still, I really like the interface
[12:08] <PriceChild> littlegator, remove those openoffice packages, then try apt-get upgrade
[12:08] <knoppix> yes
[12:08] <PriceChild> and dist-upgrade
[12:08] <endo> `Nick: Can't really find anything that compares
[12:08] <knightz_> hm.. ok
[12:08] <arnath> hi, i just installed a 500 gig (external) harddrive, now i have 2 questions: is it wise to have it as one partition? (cause i read you could run out of inodes or something if you had too many small files?)
[12:08] <Jordan_U> nich0s, You can either reboot or just run: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[12:09] <alex-weej> knoppix: check it, there will probably be references to association/authentication timing out
[12:09] <alex-weej> knoppix: and use my name when replying :P
[12:09] <arnath> and secondly, atm it is one big ext3 partition, but i seem to have lost 31 gig, my disk usage analyzer is telling me i only have 469.3 gig free
[12:09] <BlueParrot> evening all, I got wireless working using WEP , but I need it to work using WPAPSK, tried some howto's but they all rely on using iwconfig
[12:09] <BlueParrot> and that fails when I try to set the essid
[12:09] <furenku>  i want to compile it from src, cos from synaptic (ubuntustudio) i get no dssi supporthi... when i try to open rosegarden i get many rosegarden processes running, but not a single one opens... when i run "rosegarden" in terminal, there is an eternal cycle in the messages output... any ideas?
[12:10] <littlegator> arnath:are you positive the hard drive is 500 GB? Normally, a hard drive is a bit less than what they advertise it as
[12:10] <knoppix> alex-weej: yeah i can see the logs. the only thing related to the wireless is ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE) wlan0 :link becomes ready
[12:10] <knightz_> why does gcc work in ubuntu? (anybody)
[12:10] <alex-weej> knoppix: do you know which driver you're currently using?
[12:10] <OmegaCenti> [2007-07-05 17:05:38]  <EADG> I have vsftpd up and running, works great on my network, OmegaCenti is trying to log in, but it's a no-go. port 21 is forwarded on the router... any other suggestions?
[12:10] <legalsized> Stormx2!  That worked
[12:10] <arnath> littlegator: when i did fdisk -l before i partitioned, it said 500.1 gig
[12:11] <legalsized> Thanks! I have a connection!
[12:11] <nich0s> Jordan_U: Hey! Awesome! It's working now... I did get a message saying, "Failed to Initialize HAL"
[12:11] <littlegator> arnath: okay I was just making sure
[12:11] <legalsized> Wahoo!
[12:11] <joj1> question please
[12:11] <Stormx2> legalsized: Cool :D
[12:11] <nich0s> Jordan_U: Do you know what that means?
[12:11] <knightz_> why does gcc work in ubuntu? (anybody)
[12:11] <kitche> knightz_: what do you mean?
[12:11] <alex-weej> knightz_: why wouldn't it work?
[12:11] <Stormx2> knightz_: Because if it didn't people would be very annoyed?
[12:11] <arnath> littlegator: could it be that it is too much for 1 partition?
[12:11] <Senesence> How do I set custom icon for an entire filetype?
[12:11] <knoppix> alex-weej: rt73usb
[12:11] <Slart> knightz_: I would guess because lots of people made an effort to make it work
[12:11] <alex-weej> knoppix: the driver bundled with current Feisty is broken.
[12:11] <littlegator> arnath: I really have no clue as to what it could be.. I'm a newbie >_>
[12:11] <endo> what video driver do I want enabled to run compiz fusion?
[12:11] <arnath> ah :p
[12:12] <furenku> hi... when i try to open rosegarden i get many rosegarden processes running, but not a single one opens... when i run "rosegarden" in terminal, there is an eternal cycle in the messages output... any ideas?
[12:12] <knoppix> alex-weej: sp where do i get the one to use?
[12:12] <alex-weej> knoppix: do you need roaming support (i.e. do you want each user to be able to choose a network to connect to via network manager?)
[12:12] <knightz_>  I can't configure or install stuff from src and it keeps telling me that can't find gcc
[12:12] <knoppix> nope
[12:12] <arnath> anyone? -> 500 gig drive is showing up as 469 gig free space (one partition in ext3)
[12:12] <knoppix> alex-weej: nope
[12:12] <alex-weej> knoppix: ok then it's easy
[12:12] <Stormx2> knightz_: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[12:12] <Jordan_U> nich0s, I am not sure but it may mean that you will have problems with things like auto mounting external drives when they are plugged in
[12:12] <alex-weej> knoppix: sudo apt-get remove network-manager
[12:12] <IndyGunFreak> knightz: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[12:12] <nich0s> Jordan_U: OK, thanks again!
[12:12] <knightz_> thanks
[12:12] <Stormx2> I win IndyGunFreak :D
[12:13] <Jordan_U> nich0s, np

[12:13] <knightz_> bitchx
[12:13] <IndyGunFreak> knightz: that should be in the repos
[12:14] <knightz_> indygunfreak bitchx

[12:14] <knightz_> hm.. ok
[12:14] <GWhite> guys I have a 5 meg broadband connection yet almost all divx streaming media seems to start for a while working perfectly then it stops and continues to buffer only to play nothing
[12:14] <IndyGunFreak> knightz: thats in the repos isn't it?
[12:14] <alex-weej> knoppix: the rt2x00 project provide the ralink drivers to the kernel, we're just getting a "legacy" driver for the rt73 chipset that they replaced with the more generic rt2x00 package
[12:14] <joj1> anybody there willing to help
[12:14] <Ricket> In compiz, how do I (permanently) change my window decorator to be Emerald?
[12:14] <Senesence> Can anyone help me with this filetype icon deal?
[12:14] <Jack333> anyone speak spanish?
[12:14] <Jordan_U> joj1, What with?
[12:14] <IndyGunFreak> !es
[12:14] <furenku> i speak spanish
[12:14] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[12:14] <littlegator> pricechild: It's still failing. I'll just pm you the paste...
[12:14] <Jack333> no i need someone who speaks spanish and can talk to me on skype
[12:14] <Jack333> its for a spanish class im taking
[12:14] <IndyGunFreak> knightz: yeah, its in the repos(at least its in mine)
[12:14] <Jack333> anyone please :(?
[12:14] <alex-weej> knoppix: get that package, and install it. you'll need "build-essential" and "linux-headers" to build it
[12:14] <Stormx2> Jack333: Bring it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:14] <c_lisp> how do I get a usb ex3 drive to mount so that all users can read or write to it and excute
[12:15] <Jordan_U> !offtopic | Jack333
[12:15] <ubotu> Jack333: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:15] <PriceChild> !es | Jack333
[12:15] <joj1> i installed ubuntu but got error message at boot up - i have a sata drive with windows
[12:15] <ubotu> Jack333: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[12:15] <IndyGunFreak> Jack333: you can't be serious
[12:15] <alex-weej> knoppix: do you know how to build and install it?
[12:15] <Ricket> In compiz, how do I (permanently) change my window decorator to be Emerald?
[12:15] <knoppix> alex-weej: now how do i get those, are those in the vanilla install
[12:15] <Jack333> IndyGunFreak: why cant i be serious?
[12:15] <IndyGunFreak> nothing, good luck
[12:15] <Senesence> There is no way that something as trivial as icon replacement can be so complicated - can it?
[12:15] <Stormx2> Ricket: #ubuntu-effects will know.
[12:15] <alex-weej> knoppix: sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers
[12:15] <arnath> anyone? -> 500 gig drive is showing up as 469 gig free space (one partition in ext3)
[12:15] <Ricket> Stormx2: thanks, I'll try it!
[12:15] <littlegator> jack333: this is a support channel for ubuntu, not for help with homework...
[12:16] <Stormx2> Senesence: You're absolutely right. It isn't complex.
[12:16] <knoppix> alex-weej: i dont have access to ethernet. otherwise that would not be a problem :)
[12:16] <Senesence> Stormx2: So how do I change an icon for an entire filetype?
[12:16] <alex-weej> arnath: Gigabytes (10^9) or Gibibytes (2^30)?
[12:16] <arnath> alex-weej: gigabytes
[12:16] <BlueParrot> anyone have a clue what could be wrong here http://pastebin.com/942802 ?
[12:16] <c_lisp> arnath drive when they sell them too you usually sell them by 1000 kb = a megabyte instead of 1024 then the format takes space too
[12:17] <knoppix> alex-weej: I will try to find an ethernet plug and get this done.. so after i build it
[12:17] <Stormx2> Senesence: Make a copy of the icon set, and replace the icon in the new set (/usr/share/icons I think)
[12:17] <alex-weej> knoppix: you don't have to
[12:17] <knightz_> I notice that ubuntu uses less swap space why?
[12:17] <arnath> c_lisp: ye i know, but the thing is fdisk -l said it was 500.1 before i started formatting
[12:17] <evoxy> what does auto ath0 do in /etc/network/interfaces
[12:17] <evoxy> ?
[12:17] <alex-weej> knoppix: you can download the .deb files on your networked machine and then copy it over and install it locally
[12:17] <BlueParrot> my wirless network works if I just use a WEP in the GUI, but I need to use WPA
[12:17] <IndyGunFreak> knightz: who knows, did you figure out how to install bitchx?
[12:17] <alex-weej> knoppix: via CD/USB Storage
[12:17] <alex-weej> knoppix: can you do that?
[12:17] <IndyGunFreak> !wpa
[12:17] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:17] <BlueParrot> and I get that error when I try to set the essid
[12:17] <c_lisp> yea its going to say the exact size in fdisk -l arnath
[12:17] <arnath> ah
[12:17] <knightz_> yes gcc headers missing
[12:17] <knoppix> alex-weej: yeah. thats what I am going to do i gues
[12:18] <arnath> c_lisp: on another note -> is it wise to have 1 500 gig partition, or better to split it up? (i read something bout potentially running out of inodes or something?)
[12:18] <Senesence> Stormx2: I don't have a set - It's one icon - It already has a mimetype: "application/x-blender" - where do I need to place my custom icon so that the mimetype can pick up on it?
[12:18] <knoppix> alex-weej: thanks. and after i ahve them built?
[12:18] <joj1> is there a way to get help from someone in a manner we can peacefully rad the text that scolls too fast to know i have been answered
[12:18] <OmegaCenti> [2007-07-05 17:05:38]  <EADG> I have vsftpd up and running, works great on my network, OmegaCenti is trying to log in, but it's a no-go. port 21 is forwarded on the router... any other suggestions?
[12:18] <IndyGunFreak> knightz_: my point is, you didn't have to install from source, you could have simply typed "sudo apt-get install bitchx", and i tshould install.
[12:18] <knoppix> alex-weej: i guess i just need to modprobe it and then use it
[12:18] <Jordan_U> knightz, Just grab the bitchx .deb from packages.ubuntu.com
[12:18] <alex-weej> knoppix: well you need to blacklist the "default" ones
[12:18] <c_lisp> arnath I never had a problem without making multiple partitions with my 4 500 gigs
[12:18] <c_lisp> :)
[12:19] <Stormx2> Senesence: Not too sure. :(
[12:19] <knightz_> indygunfreak ok i get the point
[12:19] <pyrohotdog> So I just got a Logitech Dual Action control, and UT2004 picks up all the buttons, but the sticks don't work?
[12:19] <arnath> c_lisp: ah great :)
[12:19] <knoppix> alex-weej: yeah .. thanks.. i will try all this and see if it works.. thanks
[12:19] <knightz_> I'm find of old skoo
[12:19] <knightz_> I'm find of old skool
[12:19] <alex-weej> knoppix: and then you need to go to System->Administration->Network to set it up with ESSID and WPA keys etc.
[12:19] <pyrohotdog> Quake doesn't pick it up at all, in Postal only the left stick works. I've calibrated numerous times...am I missing a driver or something?
[12:19] <knightz_> I'm kind of old skool
[12:19] <Stormx2> knightz_: Irrelevent. The whole apt system was created because it is more useful.
[12:20] <arnath> c_lisp: one last thing hehe, the drive isnt showing up in my "places" in ubuntu, do i need to add it somewhere?
[12:20] <IndyGunFreak> knightz_: what do you mean?
[12:20] <alex-weej> knoppix: unless you want to set it up via text configuration, or of course you can temporarily set it up using ifconfig/iwconfig
[12:20] <alex-weej> knoppix: do you know how to blacklist modules?
[12:20] <knightz_> I like doing things from scrach
[12:20] <LeoDioxide> can ark to rar passwords/
[12:20] <littlegator> knightz: stop talking and be normal
[12:20] <LeoDioxide> ?
[12:20] <IndyGunFreak> lol, so you're "old skool", but you didn't know what gcc was?.. yeah, ok.
[12:20] <knoppix> alex-weej: yeah.. i do.. thansk
[12:21] <c_lisp> arnath once you format it it should auto detect. Some drives don't auto detect so you have to manual make a folder and mount them.
[12:21] <LeoDioxide> IndyGunFreak: was....IS!
[12:21] <Stormx2> knightz_: please, go ahead and write an IRC client. How about writing a compiler to compile it with. Maybe invent a new language to programme it in?
[12:21] <IndyGunFreak> LeoDioxide: lol, gramar freak.
[12:21] <PriceChild> !blacklist | alex-weej
[12:21] <ubotu> alex-weej: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u 
[12:21] <knightz_> I know what gcc is I can't get it to work cause I left out the headers
[12:21] <Stormx2> knightz_: How difficult do you want things to be, exactly?
[12:21] <alex-weej> PriceChild: that wasn't ME asking the question... :P
[12:21] <alex-weej> knoppix: blacklist rt73usb and you should be good to go, it should pick up the rt73 driver
[12:21] <PriceChild> alex-weej, sorry :)
[12:21] <Stormx2> knightz_: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[12:21] <arnath> c_lisp: i seem to have a bigger problem, i'm in "computer" at the moment and when i try to open the drive, i get "Unable to mount the selected volume"
[12:22] <knightz_> if your using ndiswrapper you don't have to blacklist
[12:22] <arnath> (only root can mount it)
[12:22] <Senesence> Frakin Gnome channel is dead.
[12:22] <IndyGunFreak> Frakin gnome?
[12:22] <Jordan_U> knightz, LFS might be a better suit for you than Ubuntu if you like doing everything from scratch
[12:22] <c_lisp> arnath did you do sudo before the mount command?
[12:22] <littlegator> Franken Gnome?
[12:22] <hacosta> sorry about last time i was trying to paste the pastebin url
[12:22] <joj1> i have been professing that we at linux are ready willing and able to help - where is everybody when it is i that need the help - someone please help me
[12:22] <IndyGunFreak> littlegator: gues he's the only one who knows who that is.
[12:22] <knightz_> I didt that on my desktop
[12:22] <arnath> c_lisp no, im not trying to mount, i added it to fstab, shouldnt it auto mount then? :S
[12:22] <knightz_> I did it that on my desktop
[12:22] <mzanfardino> I'm running ubuntu server 6.10 (no UI) and I want to launch an application once the system has booted.  What files can I modify to ensure that all other services have completed loading before my application initializes?
[12:23] <Stormx2> joj1: With?
[12:23] <littlegator> indygunfreak:  think he meant "freakin" >_>
[12:23] <alex-weej> knoppix: also remember that each time you get a kernel upgrade, you will need to recompile this driver. hopefully the buggy driver will be fixed soon though.
[12:23] <hacosta> anyways is a score of -521 acceptable?
[12:23] <knightz_> it took me 2months
[12:23] <IndyGunFreak> littlegator: think so to, but why is it dead?
[12:23] <fujin> mzanfardino: use init scripts to launch you rapplication, and set it's priority to 99
[12:23] <fujin> that'll ensure it starts last
[12:23] <c_lisp> arnath fstab is for internal drives not usb drives
[12:23] <alex-weej> knoppix: and if you want to try to get network-manager to work with it (there's no real reason why it shouldn't) then install network-manager-gnome
[12:23] <littlegator> indy: I think he just means that nobody is responding...
[12:23] <pike_> hacosta: for what again?
[12:23] <arnath> c_lisp: i did _not_ know that :|
[12:23] <c_lisp> there maybe a way if you do file /dev/disk/by-id/*
[12:23] <arnath> c_lisp: so how do i go about mounting it automatically? :S
[12:23] <c_lisp> and fstab it by its id in fstab
[12:24] <knoppix> alex-weej: thanks. will go and try all thsi
[12:24] <arnath> c_lisp: it shows up as /dev/sdc
[12:24] <Jordan_U> joj1, What do you need help with?
[12:24] <Stormx2> knightz_: Nobody cares, okay? You're spamming up the channel by asking for help with something you're doing wrong.
[12:24] <hacosta> pike_: i am upgrading to edgy
[12:24] <alex-weej> knoppix: XMPP / email me alex@weej.com if you need any help
[12:24] <mzanfardino> fujin: thank you.  I'm not that familiar with init scripts.  I've looked at rc.local and that didn't  work for me (called too soon).  What script should I look at specifically (if there is a link to a site you can direct me to I will research offline)
[12:24] <c_lisp> manual mount would be like sudo /dev/sdc -t ext3 /home/yourhomename/dirmount
[12:24] <arnath> ye, but i rather not manually mount it everytime :s
[12:24] <fujin> mzanfardino: create a simple bash script
[12:24] <Stormx2> c_lisp: You missed out "mount"
[12:24] <knoppix> alex-weej: thanks so much .. will let u know how it goes
[12:24] <darwin81> Can I use a keyboard as a mouse?
[12:24] <hacosta> and when i do an aptitude dist-upgrade i get a score of -521
[12:25] <knightz_> ok storm
[12:25] <c_lisp> you stay you formatted ext3 right?
[12:25] <arnath> yes
[12:25] <c_lisp> thats stromx2
[12:25] <c_lisp> manual mount would be like sudo mount /dev/sdc -t ext3 /home/yourhomename/dirmount
[12:25] <Jordan_U> hacosta, That is not the proper way to upgrade
[12:25] <c_lisp> thats a example you can mount it anywhere you want arnath
[12:25] <legalsized> I want my network interface to listen on three IP address. can anyone point me to a good config file example of that?
[12:25] <arnath> yes, but i rather have it mount on startup, cause i intend to use it a lot
[12:25] <hacosta> Jordan_U: i followed this wiki
[12:25] <Peteki> yo
[12:25] <littlegator> (anybody) I was upgrading to feisty from edgey when I got an error that cancelled the upgrade. When I try upgrading from the terminal, I get a packaging error for " /var/cache/apt/archives/libdb4.3_4.3.29-6build1_i386.deb".
[12:25] <arnath> (also, i would like to share it over my network)
[12:26] <c_lisp> ubunt likes to mount in /media path where other linux systems usually mounted in /mnt
[12:26] <terrestre> anyone using monodevelop?
[12:26] <mzanfardino> fujin: ok, I have a one-line comant that will spawn my task.  Which script should I have call it?  Timing is critical as I've already tried running it from rc.local and it was too soon.
[12:26] <Stormx2> legalsized: Define "listen"
[12:26] <Jordan_U> hacosta, What wiki?
[12:26] <fujin> legalsized: /etc/network/interfaces
[12:26] <mzanfardino> fujin: s/comant/command
[12:26] <hacosta> http://easylinux.info/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy#How_to_upgrade_from_Hoary_Hedgehog_-.3E_Breezy_Badger_-.3E_Dapper_Drake
[12:26] <fujin> mzanfardino: *create* *a* *script* *that* *launches* *it*
[12:26] <Stormx2> legalsized: Ah, I misread. nevermind.
[12:26] <c_lisp> arnath you will click on System->Administrator->ShareFolder ubuntu will install samba for you to share the device
[12:26] <c_lisp> or you can do sudo apt-get install samba
[12:27] <arnath> im already sharing some other things through samba, that should work out fine :p
[12:27] <Jordan_U> hacosta, well it's wrong, the only wiki I trust is wiki.ubuntu.com
[12:27] <arnath> but my point is it has to automount on startup
[12:27] <Jordan_U> !upgrade | hacosta
[12:27] <ubotu> hacosta: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[12:27] <arnath> well preferably :P
[12:27] <mzanfardino> fujin: I'm sorry, I think I'm not being intentionally dense but I guess I'm not understanding.  The application needs to  launch unattended when the system boots... I'm not quite clear on how to have my script launch at boot time
[12:27] <legalsized> what's the IT name for "listen to three IP address"?
[12:27] <c_lisp> it doesn't have to auto mount to share it on samba onces you mount it it will show the files that samba is pointing at
[12:27] <fujin> you are being dense
[12:27] <hacosta> k Jordan_Uthanks
[12:27] <fujin> google
[12:27] <Peteki> me too drunk im sry
[12:27] <Jordan_U> hacosta, Revert your sources.list then follow the linked instructions
[12:28] <hacosta> k
[12:28] <arnath> c_lisp: yes but it would still require me to auto-mount on every reboot
[12:28] <arnath> sorry
[12:28] <arnath> manually mount
[12:28] <darwin81> Can I use the keyboard to control the pointer?
[12:28] <c_lisp> you can do a batch script and add it to the start up
[12:29] <mzanfardino> fujin: your answer is not very clear.  I understand to create a script (I have done this).  Do you understand that what I'm trying to achieve is the automagic execution of said script at boot time without the need of a user to log into the system?
[12:29] <arnath> c_lisp ok will do that, best to mount in /media or my home folder?
[12:29] <PriceChild> darwin81, ctrl+alt+shift+numlock
[12:29] <jrib> !startup > c_lisp (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:29] <PriceChild> darwin81, then use the keypad
[12:29] <PriceChild> darwin81, you need the num lock on though
[12:29] <c_lisp> you should add the manual mount command in a text file thie sudo chmod -x yourtextfile
[12:29] <fujin> mzanfardino: yes, but you're a retard and not listening
[12:29] <kitche> mzanfardino: add the script to rc.local or whatever script ubuntu uses for admin scripts on bootup :)
[12:29] <PriceChild> fujin, no personal attacks thankyou.
[12:29] <ghostx> lol
[12:29] <fujin> get fucked
[12:29] <c_lisp> media if you don't want to makes your home folder to get crowded from adding things
[12:30] <PriceChild> !guidelines > fujin
[12:30] <arnath> c_lisp: if i do a sudo mount ...., will it require me to give the admin password on startup then?
[12:30] <c_lisp> I don't think so if its in a startup script
[12:31] <iZen> can someone hook me up with the link to the wineHQ
[12:31] <kitche> arnath: most likely yes but on bootup you don't need to use sudo
[12:31] <arnath> ah k
[12:31] <legalsized> bye
[12:31] <mzanfardino> kitche: thank you, that is much more helpful than fujins.  I've already tried adding it to rc.local and the execution is too soon.  I'm not sure what script then is appropriate.  Do you know what other script is called following rc.local?
[12:31] <arnath> kitche: if i have to mount something in /media as a normal user, i have to, no?
[12:31] <Jordan_U> !appdb > iZen ?
[12:32] <kitche> arnath: not on bootup since the system doesn't know anything about the users until it fully boots
[12:32] <mzanfardino> !init-script
[12:32] <iZen> i need the IRC room for Winehq
[12:32] <Stormx2> iZen: #winehq
[12:32] <iZen> ty
[12:32] <arnath> kitche: isnt this a huge security risk?
[12:32] <Bothered> What happens if I move a partition using gparted (increase the start point), if there is data on the front of the partition? Will gparted refuse to move the partition, will data be lost, or will the data be moved?
[12:32] <mzanfardino> !init
[12:32] <Stormx2> mzanfardino: Please /msg ubotu
[12:33] <c_lisp> arnath anybody that has physical access to your computers is a security breach
[12:33] <kitche> arnath: well on boot everything is ran as root until root passes it off to the user that it needs to be ran as
[12:33] <arnath> kitche: ah, and you can't slip anything "dangerous" into it?
[12:33] <IndyGunFreak> iZen: i dont' think there is one.
[12:33] <kitche> arnath: for example postfix is ran as root but root passes it off to postfix user
[12:33] <arnath> like say a format? :D
[12:33] <blkno1> WHat file do bash alias go in .bashrc or bash_aliases?
[12:34] <kitche> arnath: as long as physical access is granted anything can be done :)
[12:34] <knightz_> can I switch bootloader's?
[12:34] <arnath> true that true that...
[12:34] <Stormx2> blkno1: .bashrc, but you can just use "alias"
[12:34] <kitche> knightz_: yes what do you want to use though?
[12:34] <arnath> still a bit scary :p
[12:34] <jrib> blkno1: if you source .bash_aliases in your .bashrc, then you can put them in .bash_aliases
[12:34] <bryan986> Can someone tell me how to clear my dns? I have a smb share in my fstab that points to another machine on my network by name, but it keeps trying to connect to some random ip address...
[12:34] <mzanfardino> how about this: is there a way to automatically log a user account on at boot?
[12:34] <knightz_> lilo
[12:34] <kitche> !lilo | knightz_
[12:35] <jrib> mzanfardino: system -> administration -> login window
[12:35] <kitche> hmm will that shoud about lilo or no
[12:35] <iZen> indygun i got wow installed but when i try opening the exe with wine it says it cant find WoW.exe in system32
[12:35] <mzanfardino> jrib: no gui
[12:35] <kitche> knightz_: think it's in the repos
[12:35] <Bothered> /leave #ubuntu
[12:35] <knightz_> no I mean I want to put ubuntu in the windows the windows boot loader
[12:36] <arnath> now more of an esthetic question :p is there a good "place" to put the mount script? or just in my home folder?
[12:36] <kitche> knightz_: well you will have to daisy chain grub anyhow
[12:36] <mosno> arnath: check out the FHS
[12:36] <mosno> arnath: /usr/local/bin probably
[12:36] <knightz_> hm.........
[12:36] <arnath> mosno: will have to first look up what the fhs is :|
[12:36] <c_lisp> arnath /usr/sbin
[12:36] <arnath> ok
[12:36] <Stormx2> arnath: Why have you got a mount script, exactly?
[12:36] <c_lisp> bins are for your executable files arnath best plac
[12:36] <c_lisp> place
[12:36] <mosno> arnath: yes, do so.
[12:37] <Jordan_U> arnath, If it is going to be run as root it should only be owned by and modifiable by root
[12:37] <arnath> Stormx2: because apparantly my external usb drive cant be fstabbed?
[12:37] <jhutchins_lt> !bot
[12:37] <Stormx2> arnath: okay, just checking
[12:37] <knightz_> is there any progies that would let me see ext3 in windows?
[12:37] <arnath> well thanks for all your help! :)
[12:37] <Jordan_U> knightz, Yes...
[12:37] <c_lisp> I have have one usb drive that doesn't auto mount too kinda sucks :)
[12:37] <knightz_> jordan_U what?
[12:37] <Jordan_U> knightz, http://www.fs-driver.org/
[12:38] <arnath> :D
[12:38] <knightz_> ok thanks
[12:38] <c_lisp> if you keep it in the save usb slot it should stay the same /dev/ I think
[12:38] <jrib> arnath: gnome doesn't automount it when you login?
[12:38] <arnath> jrib: no, i get an error that it cant mount it (cause im not root)
[12:39] <jrib> arnath: sounds like a bug
[12:39] <c_lisp> 1 of my drives does that to jrib I think it has to do with the boot speed of the drive durning loading
[12:39] <Jordan_U> knightz, Also http://sourceforge.net/projects/ext2fsd
[12:39] <knightz_> ok
[12:39] <arnath> jrib: that is possible, this version of ubuntu has been acting up eversince i installed it (first official edgy release)
[12:39] <Kprofthreat> @lart aKKiLLa
[12:40] <arnath> im gonna dump all my data on the new drive, then install feisty
[12:40] <Kprofthreat> @fart
[12:40] <jrib> arnath: why not upgrade to feisty?
[12:40] <c_lisp> going to the gym catch yall later :)
[12:40] <daniev> better update to feisty
[12:40] <daniev> actually that's i'm doing right now
[12:40] <arnath> jrib: im cleaning up everything first, getting all my data (i also have 2 windows drives in there, and a laptop that needs to be ubuntu-fied)
[12:41] <c_lisp> everytime I tried to upgrade to a new dist upgrade something ends up buggy
[12:41] <Bothered> Does anyone know if clipping the front of a partition (resizing using gparted), where data is at the start of the partition, will lead to data loss (if this is in the wrong place, could someone point me to the right channel)
[12:41] <jrib> arnath: ah ok
[12:41] <arnath> i dont usually upgrade, i usually format & install :p
[12:41] <arnath> but this edgy release has been bugged so to speak from the beginning with some very annoying results hehe
[12:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Bothered: It will move the data but if you add another partition in front of it it can cause problems
[12:42] <arnath> c_lisp: could you give me an example of the mount command again btw? i've been scrolling up but can't seem to find it :)
[12:42] <knightz_> it works thanks
[12:42] <m1r> how to change subtitle size in gxine ?
[12:42] <Jordan_U> arnath, Edgy had a lot of beta software ( like firefox 2.0 ) in it, hence the name :)
[12:42] <Bothered> How bad are the problems likely to be?
[12:42] <arnath> ah :p
[12:43] <Ltar> My external hard drive, formatted to NTFS, frequently encounters I/O errors while copying large amounts of data. the instructions in the error message tell me to run chkdsk /f in windows, and then reboot twice
[12:43] <Ltar> what is the function of rebooting twice? I've found that failing to do so leaves the drive broken to linux. also, is there any way I could increase the survivability of the drive, while writing to it from linux? It seems to encounter an I/O error after about 4 gigs have been transferred to it.
[12:43] <broedje> does anybody know how to configure HAL?
[12:43] <knightz_> i would intel to release more info on their wirelss cards
[12:43] <firebird_619> Does "sudo ddcprobe | grep monitorrange" work with monitors connected via DVI? There isn't anything returned when I run that command.
[12:43] <c_lisp> sudo mount /dev/sdc1 -t ext3 /media/mydirectory
[12:43] <arnath> ah great thanks
[12:43] <c_lisp> np
[12:43] <kitche> Ltar: sounds like a bad drive to me
[12:44] <Stormx2> Ltar: The 2 reboots is to do with the ntfs log, I think. The first one fixes the errors, but doesn't write to the log that the drive is "clean". The second does that.
[12:44] <berlin> dsa
[12:44] <Jack_Sparrow> Bothered: Just issuse with grub
[12:44] <pike_> hello wretched masses!
[12:44] <Stormx2> Ltar: Also, I'd imagine the I/O errors are a hardware problem.
[12:44] <willskills> hi guys - I just installed restricted nvidia drivers on my laptop - it has a 64mb geforce4 - and I can't start X - good old irssi :D
[12:45] <willskills> please help :)
[12:45] <Bothered> Jack_Sparrow: Cheers, that's ok then. This is for a re-install.
[12:45] <Stormx2> willskills: how did you install them?
[12:45] <Jordan_U> Ltar, Rebooting windows gets it to run chkdisk, when the file system is labeled as unclean Linux will refuse to mount it with write permissions, have you checked the drive with spinwrite or something?
[12:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Bothered: No problems
[12:45] <willskills> using synaptic
[12:45] <pike_> willskills: geforce4? is that an nvidia-glx-legacy card?
[12:45] <willskills> its a laptop card
[12:45] <broedje> willskills: Samsung?
[12:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Bothered: Are you reinstalling the same version?
[12:45] <willskills> so I am assuming so
[12:45] <willskills> ni it's a packard bell
[12:45] <willskills> no*
[12:45] <daan> danfg still there?
[12:45] <kitche> pike_: yes it needs the legacy driver
[12:45] <Stormx2> willskills: restricted-manager --help should get you what you need
[12:45] <larson9999> packard bell?  wow
[12:46] <lordlucan> im running ubuntu as a LiveCD ....is there anyway I can save my settings?
[12:46] <berlin> #berlin
[12:46] <danfg> daan: hi
[12:46] <willskills> ok - how do I turn on the legacy driver?
[12:46] <Ltar> Jordan_U: ahh.. no. I've just been ferrying it between the computers, trying to merge two music libraries onto it. what is spinwrite?
[12:46] <daan> danfg was afk
[12:46] <Tarkus> hey, im trying to install FUPPES media server on my linux box to interact with my PS3. any idea how i can install this? repository is my favorite way to install (only way i know of yet). http://fuppes.ulrich-voelkel.de/
[12:46] <daan> danfg can we take this private?
[12:46] <Bothered> I was looking for a second opinion. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2969782#post2969782
[12:46] <broedje> willskills: xfonts-base? X11? gnome?
[12:46] <danfg> daan: np, it worked btw
[12:46] <Stormx2> lordlucan: You could copy your ~ to partition?
[12:46] <daan> danfg what worked?
[12:46] <willskills> broedje: what? yes yes yes I think
[12:46] <willskills> I just did a fresh install
[12:46] <lordlucan> my what?
[12:46] <Bothered> Jack_Sparrow: I helping someone else on the forum (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2969782#post2969782)
[12:46] <slocate> hey, is /etc/X11/xorg.conf~ the backup from gedit or the original stock xorg.conf?
[12:46] <Jordan_U> Ltar, It is a proprietary but AFIK best of it's kind Hard drive diagnostic / recovery boot CD
[12:47] <Stormx2> lordlucan: Your home directory.
[12:47] <willskills> slocate: yes
[12:47] <danfg> daan: i used java-alternative thingy to use the other java installed

[12:47] <Stormx2> lordlucan: Why do you want to save them? o.O
[12:47] <daan> danfg so no more problems?
[12:48] <Jack_Sparrow> ah..ok
[12:48] <arnath> btw, is it still really hard to get wireless working in linux? (ive had some _major_ problems with this before)
[12:48] <lordlucan> just wondering....i think you can save your settings in damn small linux and puppylinux ......
[12:48] <danfg> daan: now java says it's java 1.6.0, yay
[12:48] <kitche> arnath: depends on the wireless card
[12:48] <asdf> How do you display an image's dimensions on the desktop?
[12:48] <aroo> arnath: depends on the wireless card
[12:48] <danfg> daan: yep, problem solved, thanks man :)
[12:48] <daan> danfg whoohoo congrats
[12:48] <Stormx2> arnath: Depends on the card.
[12:48] <droglar> hello all can i get some help please
[12:48] <aroo> arnath: i've had no bad luck with realtek based cards
[12:49] <larson9999> arnath, getting easier.  i was able to get three different cards working in about 10 each.
[12:49] <Jordan_U> lordlucan, You can use a writable partition ( like a thumb drive ) labeled casper-rw to keep persistent data
[12:49] <arnath> intel pro/wireless 3945ABG
[12:49] <droglar> hello all can i get some help please
[12:49] <Stormx2> droglar: Only if you describe the problem you're having.
[12:49] <lordlucan> im a linux newbie....what is "labeled casper -rw"?
[12:49] <Jordan_U> !ask | droglar
[12:49] <ubotu> droglar: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:50] <droglar> I am trying to install bcmwl5.inf wireless card and cant get it installed
[12:50] <Ltar> Jordan_U: well... this is a strange occurrance. Attempting to resume copying files to the disk immediately gave me an I/O error, and skipping that file gave me another error. but, cancelling, and manually selecting the next folder to copy worked fine. is it possible that the files are corrupted on the linux side?
[12:50] <intangir> sounds like a windows driver file
[12:50] <wert613> it is
[12:50] <wert613> i installed one
[12:50] <arnath> (btw, the auto-mounting works now ;) thanks all)
[12:50] <Jordan_U> lordlucan, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDPersistence
[12:50] <wert613> you need to use ndiswrapper
[12:50] <lordlucan> thanks!
[12:50] <droglar> I know I have done exactly as they say to do but it is still not working
[12:51] <arnath> its getting worse though, when i get properties of the usb drive, it only says 435 now :|
[12:51] <firebird_619> Does "sudo ddcprobe | grep monitorrange" work with monitors connected via DVI? There isn't anything returned when I run that command.
[12:51] <mrunagi> anyone here running awn?
[12:51] <wert613> droglar
[12:51] <droglar> yes
[12:51] <wert613> ive run it mrunagi
[12:52] <mrunagi> wert613 but you dont now?
[12:52] <droglar> mrunagi what is that
[12:52] <wert613> nah
[12:52] <asdf> How do you display an image's dimensions on the desktop under the file name?
[12:52] <Stormx2> asdf: Maybe ask in #gnome ?
[12:52] <wert613> droglar: what does ifconfig say?
[12:52] <mrunagi> droglar its an osx like dock
[12:52] <wert613> yeh
[12:52] <wert613> i didnt like it
[12:52] <wert613> bit too bulky
[12:52] <droglar> where do I find out what my ifconfig says just installed this today
[12:53] <wert613> ok
[12:53] <wert613> open a terminal
[12:53] <droglar> ok
[12:53] <Jordan_U> Ltar, I think that it is much more likely a hardware issue, but if not you should definitely file a bug against ntfs-3g ( I assume that is what you are using to write to the drive, if not then that would explain the problems you are having ) as file system corruption is a serious bug

[12:55] <Ricket> How do I diagnose a long Ubuntu startup time? I don't know what's causing it but it kinda freezes when the startup message thing says "Nautilus" and GNOME has already loaded, and I can start other programs but the Nautilus thing doesn't go away for about 2 minutes. Also Networkmanager doesn't start until it goes away...

[12:56] <Stormx2> arnath: Yep. You have to leave some room for the filesystem.
[12:56] <arnath> damn, quite a bit of room :|
[12:56] <Stormx2> arnath: I know. I was a bit shocked when i partitioned my 300gb hard disk drive.
[12:56] <arnath> hehe :)
[12:57] <arcticchill360> hey whats up?
[12:57] <Rhumor> hello, I'm currently on xp, looking for something less commercial more user driven just looking for some general info. Am I in the right place
[12:57] <billiejoex_> could someone help me plz? :(
[12:57] <arcticchill360> yep

[12:57] <robby> Ubuntu is fuckin dumb hot!!!
[12:57] <arnath> ok guys, im having another problem now :) so i did the auto-mount script to mount my usb drive on startup, and it mounts, but i can't write to it
[12:57] <arnath> (permission issue)
[12:57] <Stormx2> !ohmy | robby
[12:57] <ubotu> robby: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[12:57] <Ltar> Rhumor: quite possibly.
[12:57] <Rhumor> I use my computer for everything, love to learn new stuff
[12:58] <Rhumor>  sometimes i feel as if windows hinders that
[12:58] <robby> ur right sorry
[12:58] <arcticchill360> it may take a little bit ajustin to ubuntu but its worht uit
[12:58] <Stormx2> Rhumor: Could, well ubuntu is a lot of fun and for most uses, a lot easier than windows.
[12:58] <robby> im just excited
[12:58] <arcticchill360> i recently switched from xp to ubuntu
[12:58] <Jordan_U> arnath, NTFS?
[12:58] <arnath> ext3
[12:58] <Rhumor> are hardware drivers easy to get hold of for it?
[12:59] <d4rkmonkey> Ubuntu r0xx0rz my s0xx0rz
[12:59] <arcticchill360> everything except wireless cards
[12:59] <arcticchill360> lol ive been having a heck of a time gettin mine to work
[12:59] <MajorPayne> Rhumor: Most drivers are already set up.
[12:59] <droglar> sorry I got kicked for tt ha
[12:59] <Stormx2> Rhumor: Ubuntu falls down in a few places. Some hardware can be unsupported, some games won't work, some specialist software won't work well (or at all).
[12:59] <wert613> yeh
[12:59] <arcticchill360> still havent
[12:59] <Jordan_U> Rhumor, If your hardware is supported it will work out of the box, if not then it could be hard to impossible to get some things working
[12:59] <Rhumor> I couldn't find the driver disc for my LAN card and last time I reinstalled windows it took me weeks to find them
[12:59] <MajorPayne> Rhumor: I say most.  What isn't can be difficult to set up sometimes.
[12:59] <wert613> actually nothing should be wrong there
[12:59] <robby> im thinking, i might just remove xp.  that will give me 250GB HDD to play around
[12:59] <wert613> everything seems fine
[01:00] <Stormx2> robby: Just be sure that you don't need it.
[01:00] <arnath> Jordan_U: ext3
[01:00] <droglar> wert613 u there
[01:00] <IndyGunFreak> robby: whats your experience level with Ubuntu?.. thats a bold choice if your'e really new
[01:00] <wert613> do you have netwrpok manager or wifi radar installed?
[01:00] <IndyGunFreak> Stormx2: damn you,. beat me again...lol
[01:00] <Stormx2> Haha :D
[01:00] <MajorPayne> Rhumor: The best thing you can do is download the live cd and give it a shot without installing it.  Make sure everything works.
[01:00] <wert613> droglar: that up there ^ was adressed to you
[01:00] <robby> inter
[01:01] <droglar> no i dont

[01:01] <wert613> try iwconfig

[01:01] <wert613> ahh
[01:01] <daan> robby that can be a problem yes

[01:02] <gtwthsf> Hola, que tal, I have a very simple question for you wizards, I have enabled root account and forgot the password of the root :) And now when booting, the system founds that there is an error in the file system and int asks root password (forgotten). So the question is, how can I unblock the root password?
[01:02] <desi4life> hey all
[01:02] <Stormx2> Rhumor: Cool. Well if you shrink down your windows partition, you can run ubuntu and windows side-by-side. Give yourself a few weeks of adjustment time (it's a bit of a learning curve) and if you like it / don't need windows, by all means switch completely.
[01:02] <wert613> now paste the output somehwhere
[01:02] <desi4life> i installed beryl but how do i activate the effects
[01:02] <mrunagi> im running windows and linux
[01:02] <desi4life> i cant seem to make the effects happen
[01:03] <droglar> i will get kicked if i post it here

[01:03] <wert613> yes
[01:03] <Jordan_U> gtwthsf, I can tell you how to reset your root password but it sounds like you have bigger problems than just that...
[01:03] <wert613> use a pastebin
[01:03] <desi4life> but is there a theme that i have to download now?
[01:03] <IndyGunFreak> mrunagi: what is awn?
[01:03] <mrunagi> avant window navigator
[01:03] <pike_> gtwthsf: id recommend troubleshooting it from a livecd
[01:03] <daan> desi4life: i don't think so

[01:05] <kmcq> hey there folks, i attempted to compile ioquake3 on a fresh ubuntu 7.04 install after executing sudo apt-get install build-essential and im getting many errors in regards to "file not found" in lcc.c, what am i missing (im assuming im missing some important librarys or something)
[01:05] <robby> i really want to get beryl but not sure if i have enough resorces to run it
[01:05] <Rhumor> does everything have to be built from source? although I want to learn this I'm not to competent just now, will that pose a problem?
[01:05] <daan> desi4life: can you stop the beryl-manager and run it from a terminal?
[01:05] <Ltar> rh
[01:05] <Jordan_U> gtwthsf, To reset your root password boot into "recovery mode" from GRUB when you get to a terminal run: passwd root
[01:05] <Ricket> Okay, regarding my long startup time, bootchart didn't help (the chart shows 31s bootup time when it was considerably longer) but perhaps this snipped from the System Log applet, under the "messages" section, will help: http://pastebin.ca/605094
[01:05] <desi4life> how do i start it from terminal?
[01:05] <Stormx2> kmcq: Any additional information you can give us? Is this during ./configure?
[01:05] <firebird_619> What command can I use to determine my monitors horizontal sync frequency and vertical refresh rate? "sudo ddcprobe | grep monitorrange" does not work.
[01:05] <droglar> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28731/
[01:05] <desi4life> ok nevermind i got it
[01:06] <daan> desi4life: do you get any weird errors
[01:06] <Ricket> I watched the system clock, and the startup progress thing was stuck at Nautilus right up until just after 7:01 (19:01), and that corresponds with some of the messages  in the log (at http://pastebin.ca/605094)
[01:06] <desi4life> nope
[01:06] <desi4life> i see the icon in the tray
[01:06] <kmcq> stormx2: no its during make -C code/tools/lcc install
[01:06] <desi4life> and everything seems normal
[01:06] <mrunagi> anyone here run maya on linux?
[01:06] <daan> desi4life: but no effects
[01:06] <robby> some of the vids if seen of beryl is plain sick

[01:06] <daan> desi4life: do you have the right drivers installed?
[01:06] <wert613> ok droglar
[01:06] <desi4life> not that i can tell
[01:06] <droglar> yes sir
[01:06] <desi4life> yes
[01:07] <desi4life> is there a way i can check the effects
[01:07] <wert613> just a second
[01:07] <droglar> ok
[01:07] <desi4life> i mean i did minimize n stuff but dont see anything special
[01:07] <wert613> its been a while since ive done this i have to find the file
[01:07] <younghacker> why do I get the message that my nickname is used by someone else and when i try to fix it tells me that my password is wrong?
[01:07] <Ricket> Stormx2: that's not really an option.. this is a laptop, and when I travel, DHCP is kinda required. Also, I have always used DHCP - this problem only started earlier today, after I uninstalled Beryl and installed Compiz... Compiz works though.
[01:07] <daan> desi4life: what is your videocard?
[01:07] <daan> desi4life: ati /nvidia/ intel
[01:07] <desi4life> i an ATI card
[01:08] <daan> desi4life:  they can be a pain sometimes
[01:08] <Jack_Sparrow> How did you install compiz ?
[01:08] <Stormx2> Ricket: Ah okay. Well, it could be a few things. You say the delay is after X has started?
[01:08] <Ltar> desi4life: the ati RAGE XL is not supported, I know
[01:08] <robby> lol... im using an 32mb ati agp....<-------LOL!
[01:08] <mrunagi> is compiz not already installed with ubuntu?
[01:08] <desi4life> hmm i think mine is pretty new
[01:08] <Stormx2> mrunagi: Not by default.
[01:08] <Ricket> Stormx2: I guess so... I see the gnome menu, I can even start programs, so I guess that means X has started right? (I'm pretty new to Linux...)
[01:09] <Stormx2> Yeah, that's right.
[01:09] <Jordan_U> mrunagi, It is but only the base install
[01:09] <kmcq> stormx2 any ideas?
[01:09] <daan> desi4life:  try this http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_Beryl_.28ATI.29

[01:09] <desi4life> thats what i have
[01:09] <Stormx2> Ricket: Could be beryl having a slow start-up. How old is the laptop?
[01:09] <daan> desi4life: try from step 8
[01:09] <Stormx2> kmcq: None, sorry :(
[01:09] <Ltar> desi4life: you can check to see if there are drivers available for your card here http://openprinting.org/printer_list.cgi
[01:09] <gtwthsf>  I have enabled root account and forgot the password of the root. And now when booting, the system founds that there is an error in the file system and int asks root password (forgotten). So the question is, how can I unblock the root password?
[01:09] <kmcq> stormx2 thanks anyway
[01:10] <Ricket> Stormx2: Beryl isn't installed any more. The laptop is a Core 2 Duo 2ghz, 2gb ram... A few months old, but not old at all as far as speeds. :)
[01:10] <Jordan_U> gtwthsf, To reset your root password boot into "recovery mode" from GRUB when you get to a terminal run: passwd root
[01:10] <piero> hi sorry for my bad english. it's possible launch a command line of poweroff at specified time?
[01:10] <Stormx2> gtwthsf: Recovery mode might allow you to change the password.

[01:10] <Ltar> desi4life: oops, here http://ati.amd.com/support/driver.html
[01:10] <Ricket> Stormx2: I did enable multithreaded startup... Should I try removing that? I don't remember exactly how I enabled it though, I changed some setting in a file from "none" to "multi"...
[01:10] <Ricket> Stormx2: but multithreaded startup is nice too, it almost halves my startup time
[01:10] <daan> piero: look at cron
[01:11] <pike_> piero: you might look at the at command.. or cron
[01:11] <piero> i seen but i have a error syntax with command at
[01:11] <daan> piero: post your command
[01:11] <Stormx2> Ricket: Well, disable stuff one step at a time.
[01:11] <Ricket> Stormx2: and again, I had it multithreaded before and it did not have this massive delay so I guess I should leave it... How can I find traces of Beryl that might be left? Maybe something is trying to load, and waiting all that time and then timeout-ing? All I did was remove beryl and all related programs from within Synaptic but maybe there is something still hanging around?
[01:11] <piero> sudo at 04:00 AM 06.07.07 poweroff

[01:12] <wert613> erm
[01:12] <wert613> droglar:
[01:12] <Stormx2> Ricket: yeah. I'd imagine simply removing them wouldn't revert back to metacity (the other wm)
[01:12] <wert613> i cant find the file
[01:12] <droglar> yes
[01:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Ricket: How did you load compiz
[01:12] <wert613> but there is a file
[01:12] <wert613> and in it it says the wrong name for your wireless
[01:12] <wert613> it should say eth1
[01:12] <wert613> not umm
[01:12] <wert613> umm
[01:13] <Ricket> Jack_Sparrow: in the System>Preferences>Sessions, I removed the Beryl Manager entry and added a Compiz one that is the command "compiz --replace"

[01:13] <robby> i dont know why i even still have it

[01:13] <droglar> ok so what does that mean man
[01:13] <robby> its just sitting here teasing me
[01:13] <wert613> erg one second i have it written down i believe
[01:13] <Stormx2> robby: When was the last time you used it?
[01:14] <Blu3> is there an ubuntu server install with console=ttyS0 from grub?
[01:14] <robby> 7yrs ago maybe
[01:14] <wert613> right, so theres a file having to do with ndiswrapper that proiabably says in it wlan0 its supposed to say eth1
[01:14] <Jordan_U> Ricket, Remove that entry from the session and try enabling compiz through desktop effects
[01:14] <iZen> newb question.... how do the cd and dir commands work?
[01:14] <Stormx2> iZen: dir is MS DOS I think. ls just lists what's in the directory
[01:14] <Jordan_U> !cli | iZen
[01:14] <ubotu> iZen: 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
[01:15] <Ricket> Jordan_U: this is not the normal Compiz, it is a third-party beta of Compiz Fusion. Desktop effects no longer applies...
[01:15] <ScottLij> I could see my windows computers on the network earlier today and write files to them but now I can't connect to them, any ideas how to fix this?

[01:15] <droglar> ok but how do i fix this I am so new to this that it it driving me crazy
[01:15] <orbisvicis> sound question:
[01:15] <orbisvicis>  i think my audigy card suddenly switched to pcm, b/c it went dead till i turned pcm up in alsamixer -- is there anyway I can disable pcm & still get sound ?
[01:15] <iZen> i just need to cd to my home folder so i put cd home/?
[01:15] <Stormx2> iZen: No.
[01:15] <robby> linux.about.com
[01:16] <Ricket> However, even though it is a beta version of compiz, I experience this Ubuntu delay even without running compiz, so it can't be related to the fact that I added compiz, only to the fact that I removed Beryl...
[01:16] <kitche> iZen: cd ~ to go to your user's home
[01:16] <orbisvicis> am i missing the point / i have to use pcm ?
[01:16] <Stormx2> iZen: Your home directory can be accessed via "cd /home/youruser" or "cd ~" or simply "cd"
[01:16] <equium> if my soundcard really isn't working with ubuntu (but works in xp), is it likely to work with any other dist, like opensuse?
[01:16] <Eleaf> When I create a mixed mode CD (audio + data), will that work on an os x computer?
[01:16] <desi4life> crap so how do i install these drivers
[01:16] <Eleaf> I'm using k3b
[01:16] <robby> list and explain most of the command tools
[01:16] <ScottLij> I can see the windows boxes on the network but I can't open them
[01:16] <desi4life> the file is on my desktop
[01:16] <daan> piero: do you need to run it periodically?
[01:17] <kitche> Eleaf: umm ask a osx channel
[01:17] <piero> no
[01:17] <iZen> ty
[01:17] <anon2000> hi, i currently have my pc as dual-boot with Vista and Ubuntu, using the GRUB bootloader. i am thinking about installing XP and triple-booting but I'm not sure how I'd go about fixing GRUB after installing XP. I'm assuming that the XP install will destroy GRUB and I will somehow have to restore it. How would I do this?
[01:17] <Eleaf> kitche, it's k3b for linux
[01:17] <wert613> ok so you followed these steps right droglar 1. sudo ndiswrapper -! bcmwl5.inf 2. sudo ndiswrapper -l 3. sudo ndiswrapper -m
[01:17] <nich01> Jordan_U: I have gotten everything that I can think of up and running... one problem with the network card though. Do you know where I would be able to go to see the network interface?
[01:17] <robby> actully guys
[01:17] <robby> 1 min
[01:17] <kitche> Eleaf: they can tell you better then in here if it will work or not
[01:17] <piero> daan: no
[01:17] <Eleaf> because I don't even know if it's working in linux..
[01:17] <droglar> one sec let me do that
[01:17] <Eleaf> ubuntu froze when burning.
[01:17] <robby> i have an ebook for ubuntu
[01:18] <gtwthsf> I have enabled root account and forgot the password of the root. And now when booting, the system founds that there is an error in the file system and int asks root password (forgotten). So the question is, how can I unblock the root password?
[01:18] <robby> lol.. fsckr
[01:18] <Jordan_U> gtwthsf, I have answered your question twice already
[01:18] <robby> what that mean?
[01:18] <Stormx2> gtwthsf: Stop asking. I've answered your question.
[01:18] <piero> gtwthsf: give a command sudo -s
[01:19] <pi3> please give me a word to search for to network between 2 ubuntu pcs
[01:19] <droglar> invalid driver man
[01:19] <piero> ed write password to your account
[01:19] <fsckr> youre in a linux channel and you dont know what fsckr for shame
[01:19] <robby> lol
[01:19] <piero> after write passwd root
[01:19] <attan> hi i have a problem with my ubuntu
[01:19] <Jordan_U> nich01, If it is working it should show up in the network-manager applet at the top right of the screen, if not look in the hardware manager and tell us what chipset it is and maybe we can help get it working
[01:19] <iZen> it keeps saying no directory when i try to type cd ~ <foldername>
[01:19] <attan> i think i have a virus
[01:19] <daan> piero: do it like this at -f script_name 04:00 AM 06.07.07
[01:19] <robby> ok i opened myself up for that one
[01:19] <Stormx2> attan: Unlikely. What symptoms?
[01:19] <pi3> attan: oh
[01:19] <Bothered> attan: What's the problem?
[01:19] <Mc-ntk> Hi
[01:19] <kitche> iZen: ~ takes you to /home/user you don't put anything after ~
[01:19] <anon2000> hi, i currently have my pc as dual-boot with Vista and Ubuntu, using the GRUB bootloader. i am thinking about installing XP and triple-booting but I'm not sure how I'd go about fixing GRUB after installing XP. I'm assuming that the XP install will destroy GRUB and I will somehow have to restore it. How would I do this?
[01:19] <Jordan_U> !virus | attan
[01:19] <ubotu> attan: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[01:19] <Ricket> attan: thanks for telling the whole world, we'll be sure to note that.
[01:19] <Mc-ntk> help me
[01:20] <orbisvicis> aside from fsck, anyway to defragment ? ext3, reiserfs ..
[01:20] <attan> help my ubuntu has a virus
[01:20] <Mc-ntk> my sound wont work?
[01:20] <piero> daan sudo at -f script_name 04:00 AM 06.07.07?
[01:20] <Ltar> iZen: there's no place like ~/
[01:20] <iZen> what if im accessing a file within the home folder.
[01:20] <pike_> iZen: echo ~  to see
[01:20] <daan> piero:  yes
[01:20] <attan> my ubuntu was hacked i think by an organization called the GNAA
[01:20] <Jordan_U> !defrag | orbisvicis
[01:20] <ubotu> orbisvicis: defragmentation is not needed for Ext3 and ReiserFS filesystems. They are much more efficient in their allocation of storage units.
[01:20] <PriceChild> !sound | Mc-ntk
[01:20] <ubotu> Mc-ntk: 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
[01:20] <daan> piero:  make a file and put the commands in it
[01:20] <Mc-ntk> my sound wont work and it says i am hacked by leethaxor4

[01:21] <Bothered> attan: Are you running ubuntu?

[01:21] <Mc-ntk> anybodey else get hacked by leethaxor4?
[01:21] <nich01> Jordan_U: I'm not able to get in to the hardware screen.
[01:21] <Bothered> attan: I agree, screenshot
[01:21] <Jordan_U> attan, If you were truly hacked then the only safe thing to do is completely reformat and re-install ( this is true of any operating system )
[01:22] <attan> i don't want to reformat
[01:22] <orbisvicis> no
[01:22] <nich01> attan: Please screenshot. :P
[01:22] <anon2000> phpwner yes
[01:22] <Ricket> attan: pics or it didn't happen

[01:23] <ubotu> attan: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[01:23] <daan> Whoops :P
[01:23] <robby> lol
[01:23] <attan> ok i am trying to make a screenshot
[01:23] <pike_> attan: also gimp is handy for that
[01:23] <Jordan_U> hende, have you tried fwcutter before ndis wrapper?
[01:23] <iZen> Thoka, just did that and it says directory doesnt exist when im starring at the folder in the dir right now
[01:23] <Jordan_U> phpwner, np
[01:23] <pi3> attan, have you opened any file that infected you?
[01:23] <PriceChild> attan, don't post links to such images in #ubuntu
[01:23] <Mc-ntk> I got hacked to
[01:23] <Stormx2> I find this so unlikely.
[01:23] <piero> daan file need to .sh exstension?
[01:23] <hende> whats fwcutter
[01:23] <robby> lol
[01:23] <iZen> do i need to do anything if i have spaced characters
[01:24] <daan> piero: don't think so
[01:24] <robby> indeed

[01:24] <piero> ok i try
[01:24] <Mc-ntk> ill stick it on photobucket
[01:24] <hende> jordan can u help me on another channel
[01:24] <robby> but hey maybe
[01:24] <robby> .....
[01:24] <Thokalin> iZen: try typing first letter of dir, check that it is capitalized properly, and then press tab a few times... it should autocomplete
[01:24] <Jordan_U> Stormx2, Trogans are just as easy to write on any operating system, though I agree this still sounds implausible
[01:24] <hende> jordan???
[01:25] <Jordan_U> hende, Why on another channel?
[01:25] <Stormx2> Jordan_U: Actually no. The *nix security model makes it hugely difficult for them to do any damage.
[01:25] <hende> so i can follow what you say
[01:25] <iZen> dude ty.. you need a backlash before spaces
[01:25] <Thokalin> yep :D
[01:25] <Mc-ntk> i also had to run the .exe as root
[01:25] <daan> Stormx2: except delete all your files :P
[01:25] <Thokalin> or quotes work too
[01:25] <ScottLij> how do I transfer a file from an ubuntu box over a network?
[01:25] <pike_> well you could probalby prompt most users for their password and theyd type it in
[01:25] <Jordan_U> Stormx2, Not if you have a naive user that gives it root privaleges
[01:25] <Stormx2> daan: Well yeah...
[01:25] <Bothered> Mc-ntk: exe?
[01:25] <hende> im so messed up. i just installed it yesterday having no idea how to use it i like it so far

[01:25] <Mc-ntk> it ran .exe
[01:25] <hende> i cant even install programs
[01:25] <Mc-ntk> and the .sh

[01:26] <Stormx2> hende: Check ubotu's latter message.
[01:26] <Jordan_U> hende, Undo whatever those instructions said to do and then install bcm43xx-fwcutter from synaptic
[01:26] <hende> they just say repositories not found

[01:27] <James> hi.  I've heard it's possible to boot a computer from a flash drive.  Anyone know how I could achieve this on a powerbook g4 w/out a HD, a 2GB flash drive, and the desire to run Ubuntu?
[01:27] <attan> i can't make a screenshot print screen doesn't work

[01:28] <PriceChild> attan, Enough. We don't want detail, we don't want pictures. EOD
[01:28] <robby> i wonder if i can confuse my puter
[01:28] <daan> piero: you're welcome
[01:28] <daan> attan: lol
[01:28] <Jordan_U> James, That is not going to be easy, it should be possible but not many people are going to have the experience to help you with that :(
[01:28] <vox754> PriceChild, I was about to call the ops!
[01:28] <Stormx2> attan: But we get the idea.
[01:28] <Hawker> pants?
[01:28] <robby> pants
[01:28] <James> jordan_u, any direction you can point me in where I can read up on similar cases?
[01:28] <gnomefreak> vox754: no need but ty for thinking of us :)
[01:28] <attan> it says ubuntu on the background image
[01:28] <Stormx2> PriceChild: Personally I think he's winding us up.
[01:28] <attan> and theres a picture of a penguin
[01:29] <pike_> attan: use gimp to take the screenshot
[01:29] <Mc-ntk> http://s90.photobucket/albums/k247/an97an/?action=view&action=view&current=lol2.jpg <--- the virus before i got all the nasty pictures

[01:30] <attan> gross now theres a movie that just popped up of a man taking a baseball bat and a huge throbbing cock in his butt its gross this virus is horrible >_<
[01:30] <Mc-ntk> help
[01:30] <ScottLij> why can't I connect to a windows box over a network when I could earlier today with no problem?
[01:30] <jvai_> atheros chipset... aint right, my god it aint right
[01:30] <vox754> gnomefreak, I saw that coming
[01:30] <gnomefreak> me too
[01:30] <hende> nobody can take some time to help me hundreds of users and nobody can help me
[01:30] <Slasher-AFK> you have a virus on ubuntu?
[01:30] <NemesisD> ScottLij, same
[01:30] <mrunagi> anyone running kiba dock?
[01:31] <Mc-ntk> and the virus runs on startup
[01:31] <PriceChild> !away > Slasher`
[01:31] <robby> ?
[01:31] <James> k nvm.  I found a site.  for anyone interested, it's pendrivelinux.com
[01:31] <Simetrical> I'm using Ubuntu 7.04, installed a few weeks ago and fully updated, with two screens (not Xinerama).  When I'm using a fullscreen application on my main screen, every once in a while it will become windowed out of nowhere.  It's quite annoying.
[01:31] <PriceChild> !away > Alfred0
[01:31] <gnomefreak> Mc-ntk: what virus is it you think you got on ubuntu?
[01:31] <pike_> hende: what was your question again?
[01:31] <jvai_> lol.. he's got a gnome theme on xp
[01:31] <robby> so what your saying is Slasher = Slasher
[01:31] <Stormx2> hende: Thats because no one knows the answer to your question/solution to your problem, see?
[01:31] <Slasher`> sorry PriceChild the nick Slasher is registered
[01:31] <Mc-ntk> my eyes are going to fall out if i see any more of this foulness on my computer
[01:32] <ScottLij> !away > ScottLij
[01:32] <Simetrical> I think it might be related somehow to what's going on in my other screen, namely XChat.  I could swear that sometimes I see one of the windows there flicker before my fullscreen app drops to windowed mode.
[01:32] <Mc-ntk> HOW DO I REMOVE THINGS FROM STARTING Up
[01:32] <pike_> Mc-ntk: we want screenshots!
[01:32] <Simetrical> I tried Googling, but there aren't really specific enough terms to give me any good results.
[01:32] <Mc-ntk> I GAVE A ***** screen shot

[01:35] <teratoma> hwo do i fix tthis without turning off the wireless nic interface ?
[01:35] <Stormx2> I think they were both winding us up
[01:35] <vox754> PriceChild, is it possible to ban now that he is gone?
[01:36] <Stormx2> vox754: /whowas :D
[01:36] <jvai_> any1 running ubuntu on a thinkpad z60m?
[01:36] <daan> Stormx2: indeed
[01:36] <ohzir> ;O
[01:37] <robby> ah, i remember when i dl ubuntu and my wireless didn't work
[01:37] <vox754> Stormx2, I was more concerned about policy, but works for me.
[01:37] <NemesisD> whats the default port for irc?
[01:37] <teratoma> NemesisD: 6667 , 6697 for SSL
[01:37] <ScottLij> any reason I can't connect to a windows box that I was able to transfer files to earlier today?  I haven't changed any settings and have rebooted both machines numerous times
[01:37] <saxartist> Hi everyone
[01:37] <Jordan_U> !hi | saxartist
[01:37] <ubotu> saxartist: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[01:37] <OuZo> how long is it supposed to take to re-size a partition using gparted? thanks
[01:37] <robby> then is saw what was  required to get my nic up and running and laughed
[01:38] <NemesisD> teratoma, and that can be changed easily right?
[01:38] <daan> OuZo: it can take quite some time....
[01:38] <saxartist> hahah, Jordan_U, that's quite a trick!  I'm glad ubotu's back.  He was down yesterday
[01:38] <PriceChild> NemesisD, use 8001 for freenode ;)
[01:38] <hende> hey does anyone know why my screen would go white when i tried to turn on desktop effects
[01:38] <Stormx2> daan: I just nmapped him. He's not even running ubuntu.
[01:38] <daan> OuZo: one time it took about 3 hours
[01:38] <qubix-> does anyone know how to actually get true ANSI with bitchx on ubuntu?
[01:38] <daan> Stormx2: nice, i thought so too
[01:39] <pike_> hende: i had that issue when i was using an older version of the nvidia driver
[01:39] <OuZo> daan, i am re-sizing a 110G partition from 110G to 101G & 10G
[01:39] <OuZo> would cfdisk be faster?
[01:39] <phpwner> PriceChild linuxmce is installed on top of ubuntu
[01:39] <teratoma> NemesisD: you can a irc server on whatever port you want
[01:39] <phpwner> does ubuntu 7.04 come with the ntfs driver?
[01:39] <daan> Stormx2: why do those people even come here?
[01:39] <PriceChild> phpwner, I had no idea... either way it isn't supported here.
[01:39] <OuZo> if i cancel the gparted operation will the drive be usless? thanks
[01:39] <Stormx2> daan: Because its fun, apparently.
[01:40] <Slasher`> daan: nothing better to do probably
[01:40] <daan> OuZo: cfdisk would destroy everything
[01:40] <robby> to ask how take in air for survival
[01:40] <hende> somebody told me that it has to have direct rendering on does anyone know how to do that
[01:40] <nj786> hey my camera wont load up on ubuntu
[01:40] <nj786> form USB
[01:40] <nj786> from
[01:40] <daan> Stormx2: well it's my first day at the irc ubuntu channel and I like it very much no fooling around from me
[01:41] <technel> I am trying to add a directory to the PATH (yes, I searched Google). I am using the following command and it works for the current terminal, but it doesn't save it for future ones: PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/share/ratpoison/; export PATH
[01:41] <Vlet> phpwner: yes, but the read only driver
[01:41] <saxartist> phpwner: You can read NTFS, writing is in the univ. repos
[01:41] <pike_> nj786: plug it in and do dmesg | tail    in a terminal
[01:41] <vox754> OuZo, I think GParted is actually just a frontend for such command line utilities. So there is not much gain.
[01:41] <nj786> pike_: meaning
[01:41] <pike_> nj786: you get an sda or sdb or whatnot?
[01:41] <Vlet> I have a small program running via an init.d script.. the program is running under the user xyz... whenever it creates files, they're created with a 700 permission mask, even thought I applied "chmod g+s" to the directory in which they're created... why?
[01:41] <Stormx2> daan: Cool! Hope to see you around lots - I've been going here for a couple of years now.
[01:41] <Jordan_U> !ntfs-3g | phpwner
[01:41] <ubotu> phpwner: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[01:41] <hende> how can i enable direct rendering
[01:41] <ubuntu_> hola
[01:41] <Jordan_U> hende, What GPU?
[01:41] <pike_> ubuntu_: hey
[01:41] <hende> huh?
[01:42] <DanaG> Is there any way to get DRI on S3 Savage?
[01:42] <ubuntu_> alguien habla espaol
[01:42] <robby> hey ubuntu
[01:42] <PriceChild> technel, in my ~/.bashrc I have PATH=~/bin:"${PATH}"
[01:42] <PriceChild> !es | ubuntu_
[01:42] <daan> Stormx2: Nice, haven't even been using Linux that long I liked Archlinux till one day it crashed after an update...
[01:42] <ubotu> ubuntu_: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[01:42] <nj786> pike_: ok what do i type in terminal?
[01:42] <DanaG> (4 megs VRAM -- bleh)
[01:42] <Jordan_U> hende, What Video card do you have?
[01:42] <vox754> Stormx2, daan why don't you both get married (off topic)
[01:42] <nj786> pike_: tell me exactly what to type so i dont mess up
[01:42] <hende> i think its called a extreme
[01:42] <Stormx2> vox754: Yeah why not. To vegas!
[01:42] <hende> its a compaq v2000
[01:43] <technel> PriceChild: So would that cause "export PATH" to work properly?
[01:43] <Jordan_U> hende, intel?
[01:43] <daan> Stormx2: Are you a man?
[01:43] <robby> lol
[01:43] <Stormx2> Unfortunately :(
[01:43] <hende> im not sure
[01:43] <Jordan_U> hende, What is the output of "glxinfo | grep direct" ?
[01:43] <robby> be a MAN
[01:43] <pike_> nj786: dmesg | tail    or just dmesg the tail just means you wont have to wait for it to scroll to the bottom
[01:43] <PriceChild> technel, well replace "~/bin" with whatever you want to add to path and it'd work fine
[01:43] <Stormx2> Unfortunately =D
[01:43] <robby> lol "MAN"
[01:43] <daan> Stormx2: Are you homosexual?
[01:43] <qubix-> can anyone tell me the difference between gtk1 and gtk2??? can i use either types of these themes with gnome?
[01:43] <PriceChild> !offtopic
[01:43] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:43] <nj786> pike_: sudo dmesg?
[01:43] <technel> PriceChild: Any idea why "export PATH" wouldn't work though? I thought that saves the PATH env var?
[01:43] <daan> Ok i'm sorry
[01:43] <kitche> qubix-: well gtk2 is the new gtk :)
[01:43] <pike_> nj786: if ya want
[01:44] <kitche> technel: export PATH just saves it until you either logout or shutdown/reboot etc
[01:44] <nj786> pike_: ok i typed it now what
[01:44] <qubix-> kitche, well im using 7.04 so im guessing any gtk2 theme will work? :) lol
[01:44] <daan> OuZo: if you want to keep your data safe use gparted
[01:44] <desi4life> i need help
[01:44] <OuZo> ok thanks all

[01:46] <daan> OuZo: no it doesn't as far as I know
[01:46] <firebird_619> Could someone please help me get my monitor to a resolution of 1680x1050? I have reconfigured x several times, added the resolution to xorg.conf manually, and tried modlines, but nothing works?
[01:46] <Jordan_U> desi4life, Don't install from ati's website, it won't update properly, just keep things the way they are ( you have the drivers you need installed already )
[01:46] <nj786> pike_: where is it?
[01:47] <OuZo> daan, ext3 both of them
[01:47] <robby> sigh
[01:47] <OuZo> ok thanks

[01:47] <pike_> nj786: so mkdir /mnt/camer; sudo mount -o umask=000 /dev/sda1 /mnt/camera; ln -s /mnt/camera ~/Desktop/camera   <--might work
[01:47] <mrunagi> wow kiba dock is NOT stable
[01:47] <mrunagi> lol

[01:48] <Jordan_U> firebird_619, Have you tried the restricted driver manager?
[01:48] <hende>  no network driver
[01:48] <OuZo> thanks daan you have been a great help :)
[01:48] <nj786> pike_: permission denied
[01:48] <dixee> hola
[01:48] <dixee> hay alguien
[01:48] <firebird_619> Jordan_U: Yes, I have also tried the installing the drivers from nvidia.com.
[01:48] <pike_> nj786: sorry sudo the first two commands
[01:48] <dixee> de que hablan
[01:48] <daan> OuZo: sure thing
[01:48] <Jordan_U> hende, It should be just one line, like "direct rendering = yes"
[01:48] <dixee> no hay nadie que hable espaol
[01:48] <joker__> can i get some screen shot links so i can see the diffrence ?
[01:49] <joker__> im new so yea

[01:49] <ubotu> dixee: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[01:49] <dixee> hola
[01:49] <hende> it said comman not found
[01:49] <c_lisp> is there a way to format a drive ntfs on linux?
[01:49] <Jordan_U> firebird_619, Are you sure that those drivers are in use currently?
[01:49] <daan> Stormx2: what does this mean:  you need to be authed to services to send me messages
[01:49] <nj786> pike_: and its all 1 command
[01:49] <Jordan_U> !register | dann
[01:49] <ubotu> dann: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[01:50] <hende> command not found jordan
[01:50] <Ominous> hmm is it best to use ubuntus repo or compiz's repo to install compiz from?
[01:50] <robby> you know, if spent money on IDEs and books of all languages and the hardest thing is thinking of something to make
[01:50] <Stormx2> daan: What ubotu put.
[01:50] <vox754> joker__, browse them on the web, check out "gnome", "KDE", "xfce", even wikipedia has pictures.
[01:50] <Jordan_U> hende, Are you sure you type it in correctly?
[01:50] <firebird_619> Jordan_U: you mean the ones from Restricted Driver Manager. I just tried the ones from nvidia.com so I think they are the ones currently in use.
[01:50] <daan> Stormx2: ok i'll check it
[01:50] <tannerld> how can I use a ssh key to connect to my hosting server?
[01:50] <hende> glxinfo | grepdirect
[01:50] <kitche> Ominous: does compiz-fusion even have a repo yet? not sure if compiz repo is still up
[01:51] <joker__> thank you vox754
[01:51] <nj786> pike_: ?
[01:51] <Ominous> kitche: dont know
[01:51] <Jordan_U> hende, There is a space after "grep"
[01:51] <Jordan_U> hende, glxinfo | grep direct
[01:51] <hende> says no for direct rendering
[01:51] <h1st0> 3 minutes till I blow out my 200gig and load a fresh feisty install.
[01:51] <joker__> vox754, in your stand point of view witch  is the best ?
[01:52] <robby> good thing there is not a book on program/software ideas, cause i would of wasted the money on it
[01:52] <Jordan_U> hende, What does hardware info say your graphics card is?
[01:52] <vox754> joker__, gnome is solid, stable, but boring. Kde has many features, and is flashy. I use gnome because I don't want to mess up my system right now.
[01:52] <hende> im not sure hold on
[01:52] <desi4life> Daan: is there a way to tell if beryl is working or not
[01:52] <vox754> !best > joker__
[01:52] <Slasher`> is it possible to always force mount an "unclean" ntfs drive by just simply right click>mount instead of having to use the command every time
[01:53] <gtwths1> I'm sorry about the responce speed of my last question, but anyway I still got the same problem and I haven't got the break though resuls yet. The problem is that when booring thet system (PC), the boot system tells that there is a problems in the file system and the promt is asking the root password (the root password has been enabled in the Ubuntu system, but that value of the password is missing). So how can I change the password befor
[01:53] <daan> desi4life: well if you don't see wobbly windows then it probably doesn't work
[01:53] <xoqa> i've installed gentoo and i'm having a problem with my processor overheating and then my computer shutting down. i'm wondering what comes with ubuntu that keeps this from happening?
[01:53] <nj786> pike_: it says file exists
[01:53] <nj786> something
[01:53] <hende> intel extreme jordan
[01:53] <desi4life> hmmm
[01:54] <desi4life> the steps u told me to follow i did
[01:54] <kitche> gtwths1: either boot to livecd and change the root passwd or sudo passwd root should do it as well as your user
[01:54] <Jordan_U> firebird_619, First of all I recommend that you don't use the drivers from nvidia.com, secondly have you configured your xorg.conf to actually use the drivers?
[01:54] <vox754> !prefix > hende
[01:54] <nich0s> Would anyone be able to suggest a good FTP Server?
[01:54] <joker__> vok754, is kde more problems and easyer to mess up my system if i use it ?
[01:54] <daveux> Hi, I can't boot the feisty live cd on my thinkpad t43. It looks like it tries to boot off the cd (it shows the underscore) then gives up and goes right to windows.
[01:54] <Bothered> nich0s: gFTP
[01:54] <hende> intel extreme jordan
[01:54] <Slasher`> n1c0las: proftpd
[01:54] <kitche> joker__: it's hard to mess your system up with a desktop environment
[01:54] <daan> desi4life: if you have some kind of vnc I can look at it for you
[01:54] <Slasher`> oopss
[01:54] <Slasher`> nich0s*
[01:54] <kitche> joker__: gnome has less features kde has more xfce is in between
[01:55] <Stormx2> kitche: That's a huge oversimplification.
[01:55] <joker__> who in here use's KDE ?
[01:55] <Jordan_U> hende, try running: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh" and choose i810 when asked for a driver
[01:55] <Slasher`> joker__: I use both
[01:55] <hende> intel extreme JORDAN
[01:55] <firebird_619> Jordan_U: Do you mean in xorg.conf it reading nvidia as the driver, or is there something else I have to do? Also, how do I get back to using Restricted Driver Manager Drivers instead of the nvidia.com drivers. I just tried them to see if they would solve my problem.
[01:55] <hende> sorry hold onn
[01:55] <slocate> hey, I just set up ubuntu for my sister and she wants her music - I have all sorts of good file transfer stuff set up, but all of her music is itunes m4p (aac) and is encrypted.  Am I pretty much SOL?
[01:55] <joker__> wtf how u use both ?
[01:55] <Jordan_U> joker__, #kubuntu for KDE
[01:55] <Slasher`> I have both installed and just switch and change
[01:55] <StarManta> question about installation: the installer/livecd should be happy with USB keyboards, correct?
[01:55] <vox754> joker__, no, but it is all relative... also, Kde uses the Qt toolkit that has some license issues, so... try it, you'll have no problem. Besides, you can use gnome and install kde later and try them both (or more) desktop environments.
[01:55] <Stormx2> joker__: Spell, please.
[01:55] <slocate> I'd like to conver the m4ps to FLAC
[01:55] <Slasher`> install ubuntu with GNOME then sudo apt-het install kubuntu-desktop
[01:55] <slocate> *convert
[01:56] <desi4life> daan: can you hell me setup vnc
[01:56] <Slasher`> then at the login screen you can pick your session
[01:56] <desi4life> kinda new to this ubuntu/linux stuff
[01:56] <daan> desi4life: you know what vnc is?
[01:56] <robby> OMG! there is a program called brain storm that you use for obvious brainstorming..lol
[01:56] <joker__> Stormx2, wat do you mean spell ?
[01:57] <Nyle> I just downloaded the kubuntu 7.04 cd
[01:57] <Nyle> it only contains 3.5.6 of kde
[01:57] <hende> sas a whole bunch of stuff and that xserver is not installed and no info is available
[01:57] <daan> desi4life: I think it's best if you try this http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_Beryl_.28ATI.29
[01:57] <desi4life> i think i do...it allows you to see my screen
[01:57] <Nyle> is it possible to somehow install kde 3.5.7 on kubuntu?
[01:57] <daan> desi4life: indeed
[01:57] <Stormx2> joker__: I mean, take a little care with what you are typing. People are trying to help you, the least you can do is make your questions a little less ambiguous.
[01:57] <Jordan_U> hende, as for your wireless problems, do you know how to undo the instructions that you followed on ubuntuforums.org ?
[01:57] <Ominous> where is the source.list file?
[01:57] <hende> no i dont
[01:57] <pike_> Nyle: id /join #kbuntu   the question is welcome here but you might get a better response
[01:57] <Stormx2> Ominous: /etc/apt/souces.list
[01:58] <pike_> Nyle: er.  #kubuntu
[01:58] <Nyle> pike_: thanks
[01:58] <hende> you think i can do a fresh install and you can help me wit my problems
[01:58] <vox754> joker__, you are not asking for direct support so please go to #ubuntu-offtopic to question other users in a more relaxed way, thanks
[01:58] <Jordan_U> slocate, There are programs to strip the DRM off of itunes music
[01:58] <kitche> Nyle: well feisty has 3.5.7
[01:58] <c_lisp> how do you change a usb ext3 drive that automounted to be read write and execute by all users?
[01:58] <Nyle> who?
[01:58] <hende> jordan you think i can do a fresh install and you can help me
[01:59] <Nyle> what is feisty
[01:59] <Slasher`> fiesty = ubuntu 7.04
[01:59] <Jordan_U> hende, If that would be easier for you sure
[01:59] <Nyle> so what is kubuntu?
[01:59] <Nyle> did I download the wrong cd?

[02:01] <Pelo> StarManta, check the forum on this ,  It's been mentionned before
[02:01] <joker__> NemesisD, www.ipchicken.com lol
[02:01] <NemesisD> the ip of the computer not the outside ip address (excuse my terminology)
[02:01] <derek01> i installed ubuntu on an external hard drive and it died. Grub went onto the laptop's hard drive, but since the grub files themselves were on the hard drive it errors out. So i need to install just grub onto my laptop hd or take off grub...
[02:01] <slocate> Jordan_U: I tried that 'playfair' (hymn) one and it didn't seem to work, could you recommend one or is that against policy?
[02:01] <Bigcheese> I just installed openssh-server and openssh-client on my Ubuntu 7.0.4 box. I can connect localy using "ssh user@localhost" and it works fine, but if i try to use my external ip, the computer doesn't send anything (not even a port closed responce)
[02:01] <Frogzoo> NemesisD: ifconfig
[02:02] <Pelo> derek01,  do you have winxp on the laptop ?
[02:02] <derek01> yea
[02:02] <Bigcheese> external == 192.168 range
[02:02] <derek01> but i cant boot it cause grub wont load
[02:02] <Pelo> derek01, hold on
[02:02] <Jordan_U> slocate, I don't think it is against policy ( since you are doing for fair use ) but I don't have any more information
[02:02] <derek01> ok
[02:02] <Slasher`> derek01: getting grub errors?
[02:02] <derek01> yea
[02:02] <derek01> but i know why
[02:02] <StarManta> ok how about any docs relating to installation?
[02:02] <Pelo> derek01,  performing a windows repair install will restore your MBR and solve your problem  but follow the instructions exactly   http://www.michaelstevenstech.com/XPrepairinstall.htm
[02:02] <Slasher`> try the grub ultimate repair cd (something to that sort)
[02:02] <Slasher`> let me see if i can find a link
[02:02] <derek01> it didnt
[02:02] <StarManta> or any response at all would be a start
[02:03] <derek01> i already restored once
[02:03] <pi3> what happened with attan?
[02:03] <slocate> Jordan_U: ok,. thanks
so u think i should a fresh install
[02:03] <Slasher`> damn
[02:03] <slocate> s/',.
[02:03] <joker__> Slasher`, where can i get a copy of KDE ???
[02:04] <Stormx2> joker__: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[02:04] <Jordan_U> hende, If you havn't got any important data then sure
[02:04] <hende> k
[02:04] <derek01> i already reinstalled but i have stuff on XP i cant lose
[02:04] <hende> i just got it yesterday <Jordan__U>
[02:04] <derek01> including software
[02:04] <derek01> so formating is out of the question
[02:04] <joker__> wat does that mean Stormx2
[02:04] <daan> joker__: you should execute that in a terminal
[02:04] <Slasher`> type that into a terminal window joker__
[02:05] <derek01> i need to make a seperate boot partition for grub on my hard drive then boot hte live cd and and tell it to install the grub boot files into the partition
[02:05] <joker__> ok sorry thanks im new :(
[02:05] <Stormx2> joker__: *sigh*. Run it in a terminal.
[02:05] <Slasher`> no problem
[02:05] <hende> im gonna reinstall <Jordan__U>
[02:05] <pi3> joker__ by that you are installing KDE, you can start KDE by selecting it during the splash
[02:05] <Pelo> joker__,  never appologise for being new, appologise for not having joined sooner
[02:06] <Slasher`> indeed
[02:06] <derek01> anyone tell me how to do that
[02:06] <derek01> ?
[02:06] <joker__> ok sorry for not joining sooner :P
[02:06] <Slasher`> derek01: you said the grub repair cd didnt work?
[02:06] <intelikey> i have a "unbootable" issue with dapper drake.  http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/37950
[02:06] <derek01> grub repair cd?
[02:06] <intelikey> seems that it can't make a usable initrd.img because depmod is hosed  any clue-by-four ?
[02:06] <somian> Hullo. I want to add some env var defines that will be present in my X login session (even for GUI apps) and so i guess i need to use a custom .xsession file. How can I write one making sure that what Ubuntu does now (no .xsession) is preserved?
[02:06] <intelikey> error is: tty1 [root@~]  depmod
[02:06] <intelikey> depmod: QM_MODULES: Function not implemented
[02:06] <joker__> brb
[02:07] <Pelo> derek01,  first you need to get your laptop to boot xp on it's own,   do the windows repair install
[02:07] <[Al] chemist_ex> so no one can help me with my sound problem?
[02:07] <Slasher`> i cant remember the exact name but there is a cd to just restore grub
[02:07] <Jack_Sparrow> super grub repair
[02:07] <derek01> it cant boot XP by itself, becuase grub took over the Boot sequence and i cant do anything about it
[02:07] <derek01> pelo
[02:07] <mrunagi> do you have to run kde to run kxdocker?
[02:07] <Jack_Sparrow> fdisk /mbr will restore windows boot
[02:08] <Pelo> derek01,  performing windows repair install, will remove grub from the MBR and let you boot windows
[02:08] <Jordan_U> derek01, You can overwrite grub with an windows install CD ( there is also a package to do it from Ubuntu )
[02:08] <derek01> pelo: it didnt
[02:08] <cdubya> fdisk /mbr still works?
[02:08] <derek01> Pelo: ice dont it twice
[02:08] <Jack_Sparrow> yep
[02:08] <cdubya> I thought it was fixmbr in a recovery console
[02:08] <derek01> ive*
[02:08] <Pelo> derek01,  follow Jack_Sparrow  's instructions
[02:08] <derek01> i need to do it through ubuntu
[02:08] <Jordan_U> cdubya, That's what I always hear
[02:08] <cdubya> heh
[02:08] <derek01> or another bootable cd
[02:08] <Jack_Sparrow> sgr cd
[02:08] <cdubya> well, that's what M$ says, anyways
[02:09] <Jordan_U> derek01, Ok, let me find the package...
[02:09] <intelikey> nobody on the depmod thing ?
[02:09] <Iwizzard> Is there a way of switching desktops when terminal server is in full screen mode?
[02:09] <Ominous> where can we get more themes for ubuntu?
[02:09] <Jordan_U> derek01, It's named ms-sys , it's in universe
[02:09] <Jordan_U> Ominous, art.gonome.org
[02:09] <Jordan_U> Ominous, art.gnome.org
[02:09] <Pelo> Iwizzard,   alt+f7 I think
[02:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Ominous:  gnome-look.org
[02:10] <Bothered> Jordan_U: I never noticed that package - I'll remember that in future
[02:10] <Ramzi> How come when I click Synaptic Package Manager it tells me Failed to run /usr/sbin/synaptic as user root.  Unable to copy the user's Xauthorization file.
[02:10] <Pelo> somian,  you want ##linux or app specialised channels
 when i get done reinstalling can we use a private window for you to help me with the wifi... so i can actually read what ur saying
[02:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Ominous: drop the tar onto the open theme manager...
[02:10] <Ominous> tyu

[02:11] <Slasher`> Super Grub Disk
[02:11] <Jordan_U> Bothered, Yea, I was surprised such a thing existed when I found it :)

[02:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Cool.. a quiter room
[02:12] <Iwizzard> #ubuntu-emty is werry quiet

[02:12] <DarkDancer> ooopsie, drive-by
[02:12] <lousygarua> hello, using seahorse password and key manager thing - i've accidently pushed "always allow" instead of "only once" when i was asked whether to give an application access to a key or not. how to i disable the always allow?
[02:13] <nich0s> How would I uninstall a pkg/

[02:13] <lousygarua> nich0s: try apt-get remove PACKGE
[02:13] <Slasher`> sudo apt-get remove packagename
[02:13] <lashmoov2> what's the name of the mythbuntu channel?
[02:13] <pi3> should I use SMB to share a folder between 2 linux?
[02:14] <nich0s> I love you people. :)
[02:14] <rustalot> an SVG isn't working properly: when I open it in Inkscape or try to view in Konqueror, it shows all black. is this just me? http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Gnome-globe.svg
[02:14] <lousygarua> pi3: maybe consider NFS, i have no idea how to do that though
[02:14] <lousygarua> pi3: if u got windowses on ur LAN use SMB so they can access the folder too. That's waht i do
[02:16] <cdubya> pi3, System > Administration > Shared Folders
[02:16] <medfly> im trying to use skype and for som reason it says alsa mixer timed out.. and skype is whining too, is there anything i can do about it?
[02:16] <robby> great ubuntu bible dl is going to take forever
[02:16] <Jordan_U> rustalot, It opens fine for me in FF and inkscape
[02:16] <rustalot> arg
[02:16] <Budda> hi, using ubuntu server, if i plug a usb external hdd in the kernal recognises it, but how can i get it to be auto mounted for access at the shell? (ie not in gnome)
[02:16] <rolfen> medfly if i remember well there is some setting in skype
[02:16] <pi3> thank you, cdubya, lousygarua
[02:16] <cdubya> np
[02:16] <rustalot> Budda: you need to use the mount command
[02:17] <Budda> rustalot: i can do that manually, but i want it to be automated
[02:17] <rolfen> medfly you can select OSS instead of ALSA in skype
[02:17] <Budda> rustalot: not sure how its done "properly"
[02:17] <robby> anyone here have a  copy of the ubuntu bible they can upload to me?
[02:17] <Slasher`> -afk to bed
[02:17] <rolfen> dont remember where that setting was though
[02:17] <rolfen> somewhere in the menu... i forgot
[02:17] <medfly> rolfen, ill look around, thanks
[02:17] <Stormx2> Budda: If you can see it in gnome, it's been mounted. What is the issue?
[02:17] <rustalot> Budda: maybe you could use fstab? I don't know if it'll autodetect
[02:17] <rolfen> np
[02:17] <Jordan_U> rolfen, Why would you use OSS instead of ALSA?
[02:18] <medfly> rolfen, (once i figure out how to get to the menu)
[02:18] <rolfen> he's having trouble with alsa
[02:18] <Budda> Stormx2: i've not got gnome installed
[02:18] <rolfen> haha
[02:18] <medfly> haha, got it
[02:18] <Budda> rustalot: just found some info about triggers - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsbDriveDoSomethingHowto
[02:20] <gtwths1> Thank you very much mrs/mss Kitche, the final question is, where can I found a step by step instructions how to change the root password while booting from a CD. Anyway, is Ubuntu (or any linux distro security) based on a boot CD security)
[02:21] <rolfen> medfly i found this : http://www.skype.com/help/guides/soundsetup_linux.html
[02:21] <rolfen> i dont know if it will help
[02:21] <ScottLij> why can't I access windows machines that I was able to write files to earlier? any reason why it would change for no apparent reason?
[02:21] <Jordan_U> gtwths1, Changing the root password is easy, just mount the partition Ubuntu is installed on and run: sudo chroot /mountpoint passwd
[02:22] <rustalot> gtwths1: just a guss, but what if you did sudo passwd?
[02:23] <StainYo> I'm new to this OS.. I'm using Pioneer..  Everything works great but how to I enable printer sharing & file sharing with samba?
[02:24] <lousygarua> StainYo: what's pioneer?
[02:24] <sparr4> hi
[02:24] <str4> sup?
[02:24] <str4> I'll soon find out

[02:24] <grego_> hi there
[02:24] <mrsno__> and enable sharing when prompted
[02:24] <grego_> can anyone help me to make an .deb package from a driver
[02:24] <mrsno__> !smb
[02:24] <StainYo> Pioneer Linux based on ubuntu
[02:24] <ubotu> 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
[02:24] <StainYo> thanks
[02:25] <pi3> what is the wild card in firestarter?
[02:25] <braddcadd> gcc -o gnu  -Wall gnu.c `pkg-config gtk+-2.0 --cflags --libs` -I/usr/include/libglade-2.0 -lxml -lglade-2.0
[02:25] <lousygarua> pi3: which wildcard?
[02:25] <braddcadd> that yields a missing lxml error
[02:25] <braddcadd> any help? i'm new to gcc
[02:25] <thepower27> hi all
[02:25] <rolfen> hello
[02:25] <thepower27> I just installed ubutnu to my notebook
[02:26] <Bothered> pi3: Are you trying to configure firestarter to work with samba?
[02:26] <lousygarua> braddcadd: it means u just don't have libxml.so or smt like that
[02:26] <braddcadd> /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lxml     is the exact error
[02:26] <rolfen> cool
[02:26] <cdubya> yeah, you don't have it installed likely
[02:26] <thepower27> is there a way to do panaramic desktop like windows can?
[02:26] <cdubya> braddcadd
[02:26] <braddcadd> lousygarua: ok, let me check
[02:26] <pi3> lousygarua: example I want to allow connections for SMB to 192.168.1.*
[02:26] <Ominous> bah why do so few login screens have a user list
[02:26] <Bothered> pi3: See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=190542
[02:26] <braddcadd> lousygarua: why do they call it lxml instead of libxml?
[02:26] <Bothered> it's 192.168.0/24
[02:27] <Bothered> I think
[02:27] <pi3> Bothered: oh, ok thanks
[02:27] <GasBrander> heey all
[02:27] <lousygarua> pi3: i use 192.168.1.0/24
[02:27] <GasBrander> how can i start my php irc bot?
[02:27] <xenex> Does anyone know why I have to keep on typing "xhost +" before I start firestarter?
[02:27] <Bothered> pi3: I would still check out that thread in the forums - I needed to edit a configuration file
[02:27] <lousygarua> braddcadd: the gcc automatically adds the lib when u specify it with -l
[02:27] <Jordan_U> thepower27, What exactly is a panoramic desktop?
[02:27] <thepower27> you have dual monitors and you can move the mouse from one side to the other
[02:28] <thepower27> not have the same thing on both monitors
[02:28] <cdubya> pi3, you used to have to change the hosts.allow in the smb.conf....not sure if you still have to or not......
[02:28] <rolfen> thepower i found this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=240150
[02:28] <rolfen> dunno if it'll work for your laptop though
[02:28] <n2diy> !twinview | thepower27

[02:28] <braddcadd> lousygarua: i have libxml1 & libxml2 installed according to dpkg get selections
[02:29] <pi3> cdubya, well it works now, but I was feeling kind of unconfortable allowing connections to all the ips out there
[02:29] <rolfen> thepower gosh that looks complicated
[02:29] <lousygarua> braddcadd: maybe try -lxml1 instead of -lxml
[02:29] <cdubya> pi3, you're not forwarding anything to the machine running samba are you?
[02:29] <lousygarua> braddcadd: what r u trying to compile? is it ur project or someone else's?
[02:30] <medfly> i used to have this problem with sound that i needed to kill esd, how do i do that?
[02:30] <pi3> cdubya, eer i dont' know
[02:30] <lymeca> For Gutsy Gibbon, the default window manager will be COmpiz Fusion.  Intel video cards with Free drivers are going to be fine, but what if the user doesn't have Nvidia or ATI's proprietary graphics drivers installed?  Will it fall back to Metacity for the wm?
[02:30] <braddcadd> lousygarua: someone else's, it's the simpliest glade/C app out there
[02:30] <medfly> it says its running, i cant see it
[02:30] <rolfen> medfly you want to know how to kill esd?
[02:30] <medfly> yes rolfen
[02:30] <rolfen> you should see it with ps -aux
[02:30] <medfly> oh, ok
[02:30] <Jordan_U> lymeca, Yes, but #ubuntu+1 for Gutsy
[02:30] <braddcadd> lousygarua: just trying to step through the code to see it work, i'm stepping with kdbg

[02:31] <vox754> nexous, no
[02:31] <rolfen> you can kill it with killall esd
[02:31] <medfly> thanks rolfen
[02:31] <Tehk> Can anyone recommend an app that can create audio CD ISOs?(rather then burn them)
[02:31] <nexous> vox754: thanks.

[02:31] <ubotu> nexous: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[02:31] <aum> hi - what's a good prog for converting theora/ogg or mpeg files to flash video (flv or swf)?
[02:32] <lousygarua> pi3: in my lan i only allowed 192.168.0.100 192.168.0.101 etc... in firestarter
[02:32] <Budda> aum: maybe ffmpeg
[02:32] <rolfen> Innvision what are the last messages you see on the screen?

[02:32] <hende> jordan__U iam at 90 percent
[02:32] <Jordan_U> aum, mencoder
[02:32] <cdubya> pi3, yeah, you can tell it in the config exactly which IPs you want to permit
[02:32] <Invisionfree> rolfen: Nothing. It is a blank screen and nothing happens. Highlight me with Invisionfree please.
[02:32] <hende> you want to go to that other room in about 2 min?

[02:34] <rolfen> Invisionfree ok thanks
[02:34] <lousygarua> cdubya: pi3: well as i said i set up a few rules in firestater, each for each computer's ip
[02:34] <lousygarua> cdubya: pi3: also we got a wireless lan, so in case the WEP is cracked i disabled DHCP
[02:35] <rolfen> Invisionfree do you get past grub?
[02:35] <gregorygreg> yo what's up ubuntu people??
[02:35] <braddcadd> lousygarua: well, it worked, the error went away, thanks
[02:35] <cdubya> lousygarua, kewl
[02:35] <braddcadd> lousygarua: l-lib to gcc was the trick ;)

[02:36] <rolfen> kz by guys gtg
[02:36] <braddcadd> lousygarua: but now something is crazy when stepping through the code
[02:37] <lousygarua> braddcadd: well u did say u have libxml2 and not libxml so u have -lxml2
[02:37] <braddcadd> lousygarua: when i click a widget, it says the callback function is missing, but it really isn't
[02:37] <lousygarua> braddcadd: maybe u don't use the same xml library as they showed on the example? or it's not xml related
[02:38] <braddcadd> lousygarua: yeah, i think the example is old, libxml2 must be the newest version
[02:38] <mrunagi> is there a way to reset anything and all things related to wvdial so i can start over trying to get my bluetooth to work

[02:40] <lousygarua> braddcadd: i never coded on gtk, but give me the exact error i might think of something
[02:40] <`Nick> daan: it does it every time, sometimes it just sticks - other times it finishes and throws an error that's so bland it could mean dang near anything
[02:41] <daan> `Nick: did you try gparted?
[02:41] <welemski> daan, Budda: any libraries to include?
[02:41] <`Nick> daan: gparted?

[02:42] <braddcadd> lousygarua: could not find signal handler 'on_spin_changed'
[02:42] <welemski> will it work will I lose data?
[02:42] <`Nick> daan: so it's a diff os?
[02:42] <daan> `Nick: it is possible that program gives you a better error or it will just work
[02:42] <lousygarua> braddcadd: does it compile ok and won't link? or it won't compile?
[02:42] <braddcadd> lousygarua: but that function is clearly defined, i think this is a libglade problem
[02:42] <daan> welemski: you won't lose data if you just resize
[02:43] <daan> `Nick: it's linux with the gparted program on it
[02:43] <`Nick> oh
[02:43] <braddcadd> lousygarua: maybe the compile isn;t getting libglade, checking name of libglade package...
[02:43] <jvai_> ok ppl.. ty
[02:43] <welemski> daan: I would like to shrink my 30G external hardrive to 20G and use 10 for fat32
[02:43] <daan> `Nick: you can try it with that instead of the Ubuntu installer
[02:43] <Budda> `Nick: just download the iso and burn to a cd
[02:43] <`Nick> daan: ok
[02:43] <lousygarua> braddcadd: if it's on link time you might not link to libglade it properly
[02:44] <Bothered> Does anyone know of a good alarm clock program?
[02:44] <welemski> daan: I still have 15G free space
[02:44] <daan> welemski: what kind of filesystem is on there now?
[02:44] <Budda> anybody running a upnp server on their ubuntu box? if so, what are they using/.
[02:44] <welemski> daan: ext3
[02:44] <bruenig> !cron | Bothered
[02:44] <ubotu> Bothered: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto  -  There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm
[02:44] <`Nick> Budda: yea, that's how i got the 7 liveCDs i have =p
[02:44] <n2diy> Bothered: I use Korganizer
[02:44] <daan> welemski: I guess you can just go ahead then with gparted
[02:44] <welemski> daan: thanks
[02:44] <`Nick> daan: i have to keep formatting the hd every time the install fails [7 times so far] 
[02:45] <daan> welemski: I recommend the livecd http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[02:45] <Bothered> n2diy: I use GNOME.
[02:45] <daan> welemski: That way ubuntu can't get in the way
[02:45] <n2diy> Bothered: So do I.
[02:45] <welemski> daan: I already install gparted so you say I have to use the live cd?
[02:45] <`Nick> daan: could low battery be a potential issue?
[02:45] <Bothered> n2diy: Does Korganiser work ok in gnome?
[02:45] <dayz> hey
[02:45] <dayz> whats up everyone?
[02:45] <`Nick> daan: as in issue that would mess up the install
[02:45] <bruenig> Bothered, gnome is lowercase, write a cronjob
[02:45] <daan> welemski: you don't have to it's just a little bit saver
[02:45] <n2diy> Bothered: Yep.
[02:45] <braddcadd> lousygarua: i think libglade has a different name, fixing the name in the compile should do the trick
[02:46] <daan> `Nick: don't think so
[02:46] <`Nick> daan: idk then
[02:46] <braddcadd> grego_,   did the link help you?
[02:46] <lousygarua> braddcadd: sounds reasonable, tell me if u fix it
[02:46] <daan> `Nick: I'd say try it with the livecd
[02:46] <`Nick> daan: alright
[02:46] <`Nick> brb
[02:46] <braddcadd> grego_: i just fought the roll-your-own-deb-for-a-newbie battle
[02:47] <intelikey> anyone care to guess at why upgrading the binary kernel left the system unbootable.  'i already know that it built an unusable initrd.img'  and i think i know it's because the module dependancies is hosed,  but that's as far as i can get at unraveling it  ???
[02:47] <grego_> braddcadd: im not a 100% noob in deb packages
[02:48] <grego_> braddcadd: it doesnt help me =/
[02:48] <welemski> daan: it's ok to use gparted in my gnome?
[02:48] <intelikey> ok guys.  the security updates had a new version of the 2.5.15-28 kernel so i updated   "spent 3 hours downloading it." it's the same version so it doesn't make a new /lib/modules/dir  and for some reason depmod fails and therefore the initramfs.img installed over the top of the old one is not usable. end result 'system is now unbootable'   what now ?
[02:48] <mrunagi> anyone use dial up over bluetooth with their sprint phone?
[02:48] <grego_> braddcadd: i have been created deb packages from adobe software and others
[02:48] <braddcadd> grego_: ok, your above my head already
[02:49] <daan> welemski: sure
[02:49] <braddcadd> grego_, I've been working on a GUI for epm (opensource), it should help newb's like me
[02:49] <Veinor> Why is it that when I go into System Monitor and click on the 'file systems' tab, it says I have 1.9GB free but only 900MB available? what's the other gig doing?
[02:49] <Budda> anybody running a upnp server on their ubuntu box? if so, what are they using?
[02:49] <grego_> braddcadd: oh, i understand
[02:49] <grego_> braddcadd: do you have msn ?
[02:50] <braddcadd> grego_, what problem are you running into? (as if i can help)
[02:50] <intelikey> Veinor reserved
[02:50] <grego_> braddcadd: even jabber ?
[02:50] <Veinor> and on another hard drive, it says 72.1GB vs 68.4 GB
[02:50] <braddcadd> grego_, yes both
[02:50] <grego_> braddcadd: can you send it in pvt ?
[02:50] <Veinor> intelikey: is there any way to de-reserve that space?
[02:50] <dingus9> any one installed the nvidia driver? or have a good howto?
[02:50] <intelikey> Veinor tune2fs
[02:50] <daan> welemski: be sure to unmount all partitions though
[02:50] <daan> welemski: on that drive
[02:50] <`Nick> back
[02:51] <welemski> daan: i don't understand, my file system is ext3 but when I resize using gparted it uses the command e2fsck -f -y -v /dev/sdc1 and untill now still in progress
[02:51] <daan> welemski: that is ok
[02:51] <braddcadd> grego_, did you get in the private channel?
[02:51] <daan> welemski: wait for it to finish
[02:51] <grego_> braddcadd: yes and i have already reply
[02:51] <intelikey> welemski ext3 == ext2 plus a journel
[02:52] <daan> welemski: it's checking the filesystem for errors
[02:52] <welemski> daan: btw is resize2fs required?
[02:52] <Veinor> intelikey: do i have to unmount the filesystem before I do that?
[02:52] <daan> welemski: what do you think it does? :)
[02:52] <daan> welemski: it is required
[02:52] <intelikey> Veinor don't have to but it would be better if it was at least ro
[02:52] <braddcadd> grego_, hmm i can;t see it
[02:52] <braddcadd> grego_, haha, ima irc newb too
[02:53] <welemski> daan: i'm glad... i installed it a while ago...
[02:53] <intelikey> Veinor if it's you root fs better to use a live cd for that
[02:54] <intelikey> so can someone help me boot the unbootable ?
[02:54] <daan> welemski: hope it all works ok
[02:54] <welemski> daan: the resize is done and is checking for errors now... :D
[02:54] <shadou> how do i find out if drivers for my modem is installed?
[02:54] <intelikey> stinking binary kernels that depend on initrd for fs support anyway
[02:54] <`Nick> daan: so gparted is like an alternate ubuntu installer?
[02:55] <intelikey> !modem > shadou
[02:55] <shadou> !modem
[02:55] <ubotu> You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[02:55] <daan> `Nick: no it is a harddrive partitioning program
[02:55] <daan> welemski: good :)
[02:55] <`Nick> oh i knew that haha
[02:55] <iZen> im having some issues with frame rate drop on my WoW install. Im running in direct x still but when I switch to OpenGL i receive a message saying i dont have direct 3d support. with direct x i can log in and see everything but cant even move
[02:56] <welemski> daan: operations successfully completed
[02:56] <daan> welemski: sounds good
[02:56] <Veinor> intelikeys: what's the downside of doing that? or are there any?
[02:56] <welemski> daan:  very... :D
[02:56] <daan> welemski: now you can make a fat in the free space if you haven't done so
[02:56] <Veinor> intelikey: i mean of de-reserving space
[02:56] <welemski> daan: i will
[02:57] <NemesisD> can anyone tell me why sometimes samba will just not show any windows computers on the network? I think it may be solved by rebooting my linux system but id rather not
[02:57] <welemski> no sweat... :D done
[02:57] <braddcadd> grego_, send me something through the ubuntu forums (same screename), i guess this irc thing isn't wokring
[02:57] <firebird611> Jordan_U: Could you help me again? I would like to get rid of the nvidia.com drivers and use the Restricted Drivers Manager again.
[02:57] <intelikey> Veinor if the disk is completely full you have trubble starting many things.   the reserved portion is for root's use so it's never bogged down.  although even if completely full you can still fix it from the console.
[02:58] <daan> welemski: I need to get some sleep now will you be ok?
[02:58] <grego_> braddcadd: send me you gtalk or msn in pvt ok ?
[02:58] <welemski> daan: yes.. thanks...
[02:58] <Veinor> intelikey: ah, so it's for use for files that aren't permanently there, so to speak?
[02:58] <Larry> NemesisD:  I don't know, but i've had windows do the same thing.
[02:58] <braddcadd> grego_, send me yours, i don;t know how to send it
[02:58] <intelikey> Veinor iirc 5% is the default reserved,   maybe set it to 1%
[02:58] <grego_> braddcadd: ok
[02:59] <NemesisD> Larry, same, ive set up a dir on this computer as a network drive on another and it will just say it is not accessable
[02:59] <Veinor> intelikey: and on pure data storage drives, 0% is okay?
[02:59] <daan> welemski: ok i'm going to catch some sleep now if you have any problems i'll be there tomorrow probably
[03:00] <Invisionfree> Help. My computer will not boot. It does not load the splash screen. Can anyone here help?
[03:00] <grego_> braddcadd: information sent
[03:00] <AJ--> hallo

[03:02] <rustalot> Invisionfree: does it say anything?
[03:02] <steve_c> hi all
[03:02] <steve_c>  could someone help a linux newbie figure out how to configure the screensavers. There are no options to point picture show to a specific subfolder(s)
[03:03] <firebird611> Jordan_U: Ok, Thanks. Also, at the moment I do not have a xorg.conf file. I had do delete it because my PC would not start otherwise. This happened after I spoke with you earlier. Without the xorg.conf file, my monitor is at 1680x1050. Does that help diagnose the problem any further?
[03:03] <Jordan_U> hende, First lets make it so that your firmware will be updated automatically when new versions come out, open synaptic and install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[03:03] <Invisionfree> rustalot: No. Nothing happens.
[03:03] <Jstn> How can I change my theme's titlebar color?
[03:03] <rustalot> does the BIOS screen show up?
[03:03] <braddcadd> grego_, i just sent you a message over jabber (my screen name is different on jabber)
[03:03] <Invisionfree> BIOS screen rustalot?
[03:03] <intelikey> Invisionfree sounds like grub (or lilo) would be the answer you need.
[03:03] <firebird611> Could anyone help me in removing the nvidia.com drivers and use the Restricted Drivers Manager instead?
[03:03] <BFrank> why is firefox saying this when I run it?

[03:04] <Invisionfree> BFrank: Stop spamming
[03:04] <crdlb> BFrank, #ubuntu+1
[03:04] <`Nick> BFrank: quit spamming
[03:04] <rustalot> it's a screen that says something like "DELL" or "ASUSU" or generally the name of your manufacturer
[03:04] <Invisionfree> !repeat | BFrank
[03:04] <ubotu> BFrank: 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
[03:04] <crdlb> BFrank, this channel is only for feisty
[03:04] <BFrank> it was repeated in the terminal
[03:04] <BFrank> oh
[03:04] <intelikey> crdlb only feisty ?
[03:04] <Veinor> feisty and edgy?
[03:04] <crdlb> I mean not gutsy
[03:04] <Veinor> oh.
[03:05] <Invisionfree> Oh, yes rustalot. I input my login information and thats when nothing else happens
[03:05] <Jstn> How can I change my theme's titlebar color? I'm using Gnome 2.18 and Ubuntu Feisty.
[03:05] <crdlb> dapper is supported here too :)
[03:05] <rustalot> login information to linux?
[03:05] <Kroozr> Jstn, as I said navigate to the system menu to preferences then to Theme
[03:05] <Invisionfree> rustalot: Username ans password for Ubuntu
[03:05] <Veinor> Jtsn: system->preferences->theme->theme details->window border
[03:05] <Jordan_U> firebird611, Without your xorg.conf it is probably using the open source "nv" driver that doesn't have 3D acceleration, either that or your resolution problem is a problem with your xorg.conf and not the driver so it should work if you run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh" and choose "nvidia" as the driver ( not "nv" ) and of course mark the resolutions you want to use.
[03:05] <intelikey> crdlb then support my dapper that wont boot sense the last update of the kernel
[03:05] <Jstn> Kroozr, doesn't allow me to change the color.
[03:05] <crdlb> ...
[03:05] <Kroozr> Jstn, see Veinor
[03:06] <Veinor> also controls in that menu
[03:06] <rustalot> Invisionfree: Does it just hang, or does the computer crash?
[03:06] <Invisionfree> rustalot: Hangs
[03:06] <Jstn> Window border does not have color.
[03:06] <intelikey> crdlb module depends is hosed,  know anything about that ?
[03:06] <crdlb> nope
[03:06] <Invisionfree> rustalot: My mouse moves and stuff...But all I see is my desktop background
[03:06] <Veinor> jstn: Controls does.
[03:06] <intelikey> crdlb ok.  that lets you off the hook,  know anyone to point me at ?
[03:07] <firebird611> Jordan_U: Ok, Thanks. Without the xorg.conf file I tried to run compiz fusion, but it said it couldn't run with VESA or VGA drivers, so I thought maybe it was using one of them.
[03:07] <rustalot> Invisionfree: can you see icons on your desktop?
[03:07] <Invisionfree> rustalot: No
[03:07] <khunt2> Anyone have the new Dell Inspiron E1505?
[03:07] <Jstn> Veinor, it changes more than just the color.
[03:07] <`Nick> what filesystem should i standard linux install be?
[03:07] <Veinor> jstn: I don't know of any way to just change the color off the top of my head
[03:07] <`Nick> fat32 or ext3?
[03:07] <Jordan_U> `Nick, ext3
[03:07] <Veinor> `Nick: ext3
[03:07] <`Nick> ok
[03:07] <Invisionfree> `Nick: ext3
[03:07] <intelikey> `Nick ext# or reiserfs
[03:08] <seko> hey, i just installed feisty and it keeps lagging like crazy and freezing up.  anyone else have this problem that could help me maybe? ^_^U
[03:08] <intelikey> xfs if you like a challange
[03:08] <Veinor> ext# and reiserfs are to linux what ntfs is to windows.
[03:08] <khunt2> When I install updates for the first time running my dell E1505, the laptop restarts when done and gives me:  Error 17:  Cannot mount selected partition
[03:08] <rustalot> Invisionfree: I don't know how to fix is [sorry] ,but to me it sounds like the problem is with GNOME, and that other things are probably ok.
[03:08] <steve_c> I guess no one knows about configuring screen savers. I'll try another channel.
[03:08] <intelikey> Veinor yuch,
[03:09] <Invisionfree> firebird611: Before you deleted xorg.conf what happened to your computer?
[03:09] <Veinor> intelikey: what? i'm just saying they're the 'native' filesystems, so to speak.
[03:09] <Kroozr> your not supposed to delete xorg.conf . . . are you
[03:09] <khunt2> I feel like Ive been raped
[03:10] <`Nick> what linux distro is GParted based on?
[03:10] <intelikey> khunt2 sounds like you need to reinstall grub,   that's not on a usb drive is it ?
[03:10] <firebird611> Invisionfree: It would restart itself a few times and then it just got stuck at a black screen. I could get to a cli though and login, thats how I deleted xorg.conf.
[03:10] <khunt2> intelikey: nope
[03:10] <Invisionfree> Oh. . . :(
[03:10] <Invisionfree> Well. BBL, as I try once mor eto run...
[03:10] <intelikey> !grub > khunt2
[03:10] <intelikey> khunt2 look at your pm's
[03:11] <khunt2> intelikey: yep, thanks.
[03:11] <Dj-avu> hi, where i can ask about ship cd to my country?
[03:11] <khunt2> intelikey: what do you think could have been in those updates that would break dell's new factory-installed-linux laptop?
[03:11] <`Nick> what Linux distro is gparted based on????
[03:11] <astro76> !shipit | Dj-avu
[03:11] <ubotu> Dj-avu: shipit is a service that sends free Ubuntu, Kubuntu and Edubuntu CDs. See http://shipit.ubuntu.com/ and http://shipit.kubuntu.org and http://shipit.edubuntu.org - Shipit will send Feisty (7.04) CDs
[03:12] <josealfredo> What drivers should i use for the 7600gt????
[03:12] <firebird611> Can anybody help me with removing the nvidia.com drivers and get back to using Restricted Drivers Manager?
[03:12] <josealfredo> having a tuff time with this drivers
[03:12] <intelikey> khunt2 i don't recall exactly the grub error 17  but you can also search the forums about that.  it's been often reported.     and you should also file a bug on that.  plus inform dell
[03:12] <Kroozr> fyi to all linux newb's like myself, i recommend www.linuxcommand.org as a good read to 'get to know' the command line
[03:12] <khunt2> intelikey: ok, thanks
[03:12] <mrsno__> firebird611 the nvidia.com drivers come with an uninstall, when you first sh the filename.sh, i believe there is an -uninstall switch
[03:13] <Dj-avu> astro76, i have ship and in this is the report "15 CDs requested on 2006-05-02. 15 CDs were approved and sent to the shipping company on 2006-05-03." but i am not receive that cd.
[03:13] <josealfredo> Drivers fo the nvidia 7600gt????
[03:13] <intelikey> Kroozr nice spam.
[03:13] <mrsno__> not sure of the exact command, alternatively if you used 'envy' then it has an uninstall option (might do the same thing)
[03:13] <Kroozr> intelikey, i wasn't trying to spam . . . just trying to be helpful... my bad
[03:13] <Budda> how do you get out of an apt-get problem "Depends: libsmjs1 but it is not installable"
[03:13] <Budda> ?
[03:13] <firebird611> mrsno__: So would it be sh -uninstall filename?
[03:13] <illovae> Kroozr: thx :)
[03:13] <khunt2> I love spam and reeses
[03:14] <`Nick> nobody knows what distro GParted is based on?
[03:14] <intelikey> Kroozr you can also add it to you quit message,  that's a good place for things like that.
[03:15] <jo3nix> what do you mean based on?
[03:15] <intelikey> `Nick i don't think you have asked a valed question there
[03:15] <n2diy> 'Nick linux?
[03:15] <Budda> `Nick: i was running it less than an hour ago, but can't remember. maybe CentOS?
[03:15] <seko> can anyone help me figure out my ubuntu keeps freezing?
[03:15] <Tarkus> hey, im trying to install FUPPES media server on my linux box to interact with my PS3. any idea how i can install this? repository is my favorite way to install (only way i know of yet). http://fuppes.ulrich-voelkel.de/
[03:15] <Budda> seko: wrap a blanket round it?
[03:15] <Budda> :)
[03:15] <seko> lol
[03:15] <Budda> Tarkus: i'm trying to do the same, but with mediatomb!
[03:16] <kitche> `Nick: if you mean the live cd it's gentoo-cataylst
[03:16] <jo3nix> how is gparted based on centos?
[03:16] <Budda> Tarkus: was just reading - http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/blogs/upnp_mediatomb_ps3_and_me#comment-72003
[03:16] <ivaarsen> seko - it might be your power supply?
[03:16] <`Nick> kitche: catalyst?
[03:16] <intelikey> `Nick do you mean the gparted live CD  ???     knoppix/debian   i suppose.
[03:16] <Larry> When recompiling, I run make menuconfig.  Where do the choices made in that dialog get saved?
[03:16] <Dj-avu> i have request 15 cd and aproved but until now i am not received that cd, where i can solved thats problem?
[03:16] <`Nick> intelikey: yea, like which is the actual gparted program running on
[03:16] <kitche> `Nick: GParted LiveCD is based
[03:16] <kitche> on Gentoo-catalyst, and uses Xorg,the lightweight Fluxbox window manager,
[03:16] <kitche> and the latest 2.6 Linux Kernel.
[03:16] <fisherhome> so guess who forgot his acct password to log into ubuntu?  anyone know a way into root to reset it?
[03:16] <seko> ivarrson: my power supply making it freeze up?  i never heard of that befor...
[03:17] <`Nick> kitche: ok
[03:17] <kitche> fisherhome: live cd or recovery mode
[03:17] <ivaarsen> seko - sure it can.
[03:17] <`Nick> AHHHHHHHHhhhhh'
[03:17] <`Nick> damnit
[03:17] <`Nick> laptop battery died :(
[03:17] <`Nick> intelikey: why not?
[03:18] <intelikey> bad initramfs.img
[03:18] <fisherhome> ah ok, so i just boot from cd, enter recov mode, and whats the command i'm looking for?
[03:18] <seko> any other possibilty that wouldent involve me spending money i dont have?  lol
[03:18] <kitche> fisherhome: press esc at the splash it should give you a menu for grub with your install
[03:18] <intelikey> `Nick know anything in that realmn?
[03:19] <fisherhome> thats while booted from the cd, right?
[03:19] <`Nick> intelikey: what's initramfs.img?
[03:19] <intelikey> that answers my Q
[03:19] <kitche> fisherhome: nope that is without the live cd
[03:19] <ivaarsen> well I'd do some trouble-shooting to narrow it down, but I have installed this os on many different systems and it always works like a charm, so I don't think it's the os.
[03:19] <fisherhome> oh ok cool thanks mate
[03:19] <`Nick> intelikey: say what now?
[03:19] <intelikey> anybody initramfs wise ?
[03:20] <n2diy> intelikey: initial ram file system?
[03:20] <intelikey> `Nick it's the second file that the system loads when booting.
[03:20] <Tarkus> Budda, yeah, i got mediatomb working fine
[03:20] <ivaarsen> unless you've done anything to ubuntu, it might be a hardware failure
[03:20] <`Nick> intelikey: i knew that...
[03:20] <Tarkus> Budda, it works amazingly for music and photo's
[03:20] <shadou> how do i know if my modem is working
[03:20] <intelikey> n2diy yes.  got knowledge ?
[03:20] <Budda> Tarkus: what version of ubuntu you got it working on? i can't get the spidemonkey libjs installed :-(
[03:20] <Tarkus> Budda, but it doesnt transcode my .avi videos to .mp4. so the PS cant read them
[03:21] <firebird611> Where would I find ./nvidia-installer? It says to run ./nvidia-installer --help
[03:21] <Tarkus> Budda, im using Feisty
[03:21] <n2diy> intelikey: other than that? no.
[03:21] <intelikey> k
[03:21] <kbrooks> firebird611, donty use that
[03:21] <ivaarsen> I had a machine just start to freeze all the time, no matter if I was playing a game, or idling, it would freeze at random.  New power supply, problem solved.
[03:21] <shadou> how do i know if my modem is working? i installed the drivers (i think)
[03:21] <dingus9> any one know why when I install nvidia-glx it wants the 2.6.20-15-386 kernel rather than a 686?
[03:21] <`Nick> lmao
[03:21] <`Nick> gparted has issues on this boot
[03:21] <jo3nix> firebird611, use apt-get to install the nvidia-glx-new
[03:21] <fisherhome> ok i managed to get into the recovery mode via esc, i'm at the root shell.. how do i view user accts?
[03:21] <`Nick> hm
[03:21] <macogw> shadou: try using it
[03:21] <Tarkus> Budda, i installed it using that excact same way. the page you showed me
[03:22] <intelikey> shadou lsmod will list the driver if it's inserted.
[03:22] <n2diy> intelikey: But, just a guess, if you're having trouble with it, you could have trouble with your ram.
[03:22] <firebird611> jo3nix: Will that remove the nvidia.com drivers?
[03:22] <kitche> fisherhome: passwd <username> will change your username's passwd
[03:22] <tretle> can someone help me recover from a partial upgrade to gutsy, basically i want a full upgrade but the upgrade manager crashed when i was upgrading so i had to do a partial upgrade instead
[03:22] <jo3nix> yes it will install over them
[03:22] <fisherhome> ooo you're good =] 
[03:22] <Budda> Tarkus: i'm on dapper, and it doesn't go so smoothly :(
[03:22] <shadou> intelikey: lsmod?
[03:22] <intelikey> n2diy could i guess,  but that's not the problem.
[03:22] <dingus9> firebird611, are you trying to install the one from the nvidia site?
[03:22] <macogw> tretle: did you try just running the upgrade again?
[03:23] <Tarkus> Budda, it worked for me amazingly, i just folowed the instructions. and looked at my PS3 and boom! everything is right there
[03:23] <AJ--> ei guys just want to ask... can i use nano instead of vi..
[03:23] <tretle> i entered the cdc but it didnt ask me if i wanted to upgrade this time
[03:23] <macogw> tretle: i had a half-dapper/half-edgy system at one point because of that crap, but running the gui updater again fixed it
[03:23] <intelikey> shadou yes,  it's a command.   gnome-terminal # lsmod | less
[03:23] <AJ--> ei guys just want to ask... can i use nano instead of vi.. ????
[03:23] <macogw> tretle: cdc?
[03:23] <fisherhome> worked like a charm, kitche!  thank you very much for your quick help
[03:23] <Frogzoo> tretle: stay away from gutsy - it's alpha
[03:23] <macogw> AJ--: yeah sure
[03:23] <kitche> fisherhome: not a problem at all
[03:23] <macogw> Frogzoo: bit late?
[03:24] <shadou> intelikey: how do i know which is my modem?
[03:24] <Frogzoo> macogw: shrug
[03:24] <AJ--> macogw: so wats the diff. between them.. do they have same function?
[03:24] <Thingol79> seclein2: if you want to make model=vaio permanent, put this line to /etc/modprobe.conf:
[03:24] <Thingol79> options snd-hda-intel model=vaio
[03:24] <`Nick> damnit
[03:24] <n2diy> intelikey: one boot option from the CD is memtest, so it wouldn't be hard to check.
[03:24] <intelikey> shadou but something like wvdial would scan the modem devices for you.     wvdialconf
[03:24] <`Nick> hd just got fried
[03:24] <Evan_> having problem with first time install
[03:24] <seclein2> Thingol79: ok, thx
[03:24] <Thingol79> seclein2: or create a new file in /etc/modprobe.d and put it there
[03:24] <tretle> i had gutsy running already and it fits the bill, everything works great, but i have two partitions on the hardrive and the live cd partitioner is broke so i need to do an upgrade and this is where the problem arises
[03:24] <intelikey> n2diy that's right.
[03:24] <Thingol79> np
[03:24] <fisherhome> Nicke`: lightning?
[03:24] <tretle> how can i start the upgrade again?
[03:25] <macogw> AJ--: vi has all the commands from ed/sed for fast editing once you memorize a lot of commands.  nano has instructions onscreen at all times to be easy.  if you dont know vi commands, you're liable to become one of the people who unplugs their computer to close vi because they're stuck
[03:25] <Frogzoo> tretle: for gutsy -> #ubuntu+1
[03:25] <ScottLij> When I try to access a SAMBA shared folder on a windows machine it keeps asking me for a username and a password, how do I set these in Ubuntu?
[03:25] <tretle> ok so, thx for the help
[03:25] <fisherhome> gutsy beta is available for dl?
[03:25] <macogw> AJ--: both are sufficient for editing text of course
[03:25] <macogw> fisherhome: alpha, not beta
[03:25] <AJ--> macogw:  tnx a lot
[03:25] <Scunizi> ScottLij, you set that on the windows machine with a new user account
[03:25] <fisherhome> ah!  livecd?
[03:25] <ex-parrot> hey all... anyone got a fix for e1000 under x64? I get 'can'
[03:25] <Frogzoo> fisherhome: not sure it's even beta yet
[03:25] <ex-parrot> can't allocate MSI interrupt
[03:26] <macogw> fisherhome: yeah live or alternate.  it's the 2nd alpha
[03:26] <fisherhome> mmm i love trying new thangs.. im gunna get on that pronto
[03:26] <fisherhome> vmware <3
[03:26] <macogw> fisherhome: if youre not comfortable doing everything command line, stay away
[03:26] <fisherhome> i can get around decently but i'm not l33t
[03:26] <Invisionfree> Great news: I fixed my computer! It happened once and was booting last session. I set it to Gnome and it ran.
[03:26] <ScottLij> Scunizi, I created a new user account on the windows machine with the same name and password as the Ubuntu box
[03:26] <ex-parrot> anyone? e1000 pro server nic under x64?
[03:27] <Invisionfree> Now, is there a desktop recorder somewhere on Ubuntu?
[03:27] <macogw> fisherhome: alphas very often break and leave you with no X, so irssi, lynx, bash, and xorg.conf fearlessness are necessary
[03:27] <Invisionfree> !istanbul > Invisionfree
[03:27] <fisherhome> it also sounds like a great way to learn the shell
[03:27] <Scunizi> ScottLij, I've had real headaches getting samba to work from ubutnu to windows.  I CAN get from win2kpro to ubuntu though with no problem..
[03:27] <fisherhome> when u aint got no alternative!
[03:27] <macogw> Invisionfree: why are you answering your own question?
[03:27] <khunt2> lol
[03:28] <n2diy> ex-parrot: I'm running the e100 on an x86 SMP kernel here, but I doubt that would be of any help to you?
[03:28] <Invisionfree> macogw: Because Istanbul never works for me =|
[03:28] <ex-parrot> n2diy: I'm trying to run e1000 on an x64 server board :/
[03:28] <SaltyMule> What's the best way to learn the command line?
[03:28] <fisherhome> istanbul was constantinople, you know
[03:28] <jo3nix> use it
[03:28] <firebird611> dingus9: I installed the nvidia.com drivers, but I want to get rid of them and use Restricted Drivers Manager.
[03:28] <macogw> Invisionfree: oh, me neither.  i havent found one that actually works. istanbul goes CRASH when you try to save and recordmydesktop produces unplayable files
[03:28] <fisherhome> SaltyMule: if u figure out a way, please let me know
[03:28] <ScottLij> I'm just trying to transfer a file from the ubuntu box to the Windows box but I can't because the Ubuntu box can't connect to any windows box on the network and the windows boxes need a valid username and password
[03:28] <Evan_> Using LiveCD, boots from cd, but when I select "install", install window appears for a second, then disappears and nothing else happens.
[03:28] <khunt2> fisherhome: who was constantinople named after?
[03:28] <n2diy> SaltyMule: play with it.
[03:28] <ex-parrot> ScottLij: out of the box, feisty's smb.conf is broken
[03:29] <ex-parrot> edit it and enable auth = user
[03:29] <crimsun> khunt2: a constant integer, of course!
[03:29] <ex-parrot> then do smbpasswd -a <your username>
[03:29] <Stormx2> Heya folks. I've recently reinstalled ubuntu. Before. I could use kzenexplorer to transfer files to and from my mp3 player. Now, it needs root. How can I set up my system to allow it to run as a user, as it did before?
[03:29] <fisherhome> idk, constantine nople?
[03:29] <jo3nix> SaltyMule, use it to do everything you can.. install/remove packages, configure files, etc..
[03:29] <Invisionfree> Why is my computer filled with more errors all of the Windows OSes combined?
[03:29] <khunt2> crimsun:lol!
[03:29] <intelikey> mrsno__ here i B
[03:29] <ScottLij> ok, now where is that located?
[03:29] <mrsno__> intelikey can you boot from the dapper livecd and try reinstalling the deb file for the linux-image ?
[03:29] <SaltyMule> Yeah, I'm a pretty decent learner, but is there a book about command line installations?
[03:29] <mrsno__> the one installed prior to the "update"
[03:29] <Sonicadvance1> Wow, Surprised that the Creative Labs X-Fi cards aren't supported yet
[03:29] <macogw> ScottLij: probably under /etc with all the other config stuf
[03:29] <crimsun> Sonicadvance1: only the X-Fi Extreme Audios are.
[03:29] <n2diy> SaltyMule: http://rute.2038bug.com/rute.html.gz
[03:30] <jo3nix> SaltyMule, install gentoo a couple of times. ;)
[03:30] <Sonicadvance1> I've noticed
[03:30] <intelikey> mrsno__ yes done that.  same problem
[03:30] <macogw> SaltyMule: about installing from the text-mode installer or about apt-get or about using bash in general?
[03:30] <Sonicadvance1> Surprised all of them aren't in the slightest
[03:30] <fisherhome> SaltyMule: someone gave me this tutorial/exercise but i haven't tried it yet: http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/Electrical-Engineering-and-Computer-Science/6-033Spring-2005/Assignments/detail/handson1.htm
[03:30] <crimsun> Sonicadvance1: (those are really ca0106-driven; everything else requires an NDA.)
[03:30] <fisherhome> mainly cuz i had no user pw to log in with lol
[03:30] <ScottLij> macogw, Yup, thanks
[03:30] <SaltyMule> sweet,
[03:30] <bslote> So I had a server set up and working fine with ssh and samba and everything. It was originally wired into the network, but I just put a wireless card in it today and now none of the other computers on the network can access it. It still has the same address and everything. Any ideas?
[03:30] <Sonicadvance1> HA!
[03:30] <mrsno__> intelikey if you install the older kernel what happens when it boots ?
[03:30] <Sonicadvance1> That's funny. and it sucks
[03:30] <Sonicadvance1> :P
[03:30] <mrsno__> or what exactly is happening
[03:30] <Sonicadvance1> Good thing I don't have a Creative Labs card
[03:30] <fisherhome> bslote: are you able to get out to google.com from that machine?
[03:30] <kmcq> whats the command to force quit a program on linux?
[03:31] <SaltyMule> I've got problems getting to the internet so using apt-get is a pain
[03:31] <Frogzoo> Sonicadvance1: closed drivers will be available Q3/4
[03:31] <bslote> fisherhome, yes, sir
[03:31] <Jstn> For anyone that was curious, for changing the border color a great utility is gnome-color-chooser.
[03:31] <Sonicadvance1> Yes, I've been reading up on it
[03:31] <TerroriSta> anyoen not busy? i have a real problem trying to install some drivers on my computer
[03:31] <fisherhome> are you using a linksys wireless router by chance?
[03:31] <wm32gonzo> Check the config on your router.
[03:31] <Sonicadvance1> I'm not even interested in buying one though so I'm fine
[03:31] <bslote> fisherhome, yeah
[03:31] <SaltyMule> and I'm trying to use the server edition, because I  should learn this stuff. thanks for the suggestions
[03:31] <fisherhome> ok, check for the setting "AP"
[03:31] <fisherhome> make sure it's disabled
[03:31] <fisherhome> that sets up a private network for all wireless machines
[03:31] <ScottLij> ex-parrot, uncomment this line?     ;   security = user
[03:31] <SaltyMule> seeya
[03:32] <AJ--> is there any guide how to make my linux share internet connection to my windows pc.. coz im not using a router
[03:32] <intelikey> mrsno__ the older one seems to have inherited the same module dependancy problem as it's linux-image-2.6.28*-55-386 counter part.     i really think that modutils or something is the culpret
[03:32] <fisherhome> loginto the router via http://192.168.1.1  (or whatever your default gateway is)
[03:32] <n2diy> SaltyMule: LTR
[03:32] <fisherhome> default account is username: <blank>  pw: admin
[03:32] <Frogzoo> Sonicadvance1: I'm not really sure X-Fi is all that anyway
[03:32] <intelikey> mrsno__ but i don't know what.
[03:33] <fisherhome> it should be located under the Wireless setting, probably in the Advanced tab
[03:33] <Budda> how can i see what version of ubuntu is installed from the terminal?
[03:33] <fisherhome> thats where it is in my Linksys WRT54GS
[03:33] <mrsno__> intelikey dapper uses linux-image-2.6.15
[03:33] <Budda> uname -a doesn't tell me much
[03:33] <TerroriSta> anyoen not busy? i have a real problem trying to install some drivers on my computer
[03:33] <intelikey> mrsno__ yeah did i typo that ?
[03:33] <bslote> fisherhome, trying to check. I can't seem to access my router config page for some reason. Going to try another computer.
[03:33] <fisherhome> yeh if it's not configured properly via wire first, you won't be able to access it wirelessly
[03:33] <jo3nix> Budda, have you edited your issue files?
[03:33] <Sonicadvance1> Woo integrated sound!
[03:34] <intelikey> mrsno__ ah yes  *6.15-28*
[03:34] <mrsno__> intelikey oh a typo, can you pastebin the exact errors appearing , you can access the files from the livecd and copy from the install
[03:34] <jo3nix> Busata, do less /etc/issue
[03:34] <Budda> jo3nix: sorry, but i don't even know what an issue file is, or for.
[03:34] <fisherhome> go to a wired machine.. if it's an xp machine, Start > Run > cmd /k ipconfig/all
[03:34] <ScottLij> grr, still can't connect to the windows box
[03:34] <fisherhome> it'll open a black window and show u your default gateway, then just enter that into a web browser
[03:34] <jo3nix> Budda, do less /etc/issue
[03:34] <intelikey> mrsno__ running depmod
[03:34] <intelikey> depmod: QM_MODULES: Function not implemented
[03:34] <jo3nix> lame way but it workes if you havnt edited issue
[03:34] <Budda> jo3nix: thanks. worked. whats that file for?
[03:35] <sandip123> hi gusy
[03:35] <Larry> I'm trying to understand what goes on when recompiling a kernel.  Where does "make menuconfig" output the chosen options?
[03:35] <TerroriSta> anyoen can help me to isntall the ipwraw modules?
[03:35] <intelikey> mrsno__ from there everything is about mod-deps issues.
[03:35] <sandip123> just wanted to ask .. whats the command to load ntfs drives ?
[03:35] <fisherhome> TerroriSta: did you try apt-get?
[03:35] <jo3nix> Budda, its the banner for ssh/telnet connection
[03:35] <Evan_> install issue: boots from CD, but does not install on hard drive.
[03:35] <AJ--> is there any guide how to make my linux share internet connection to my windows pc.. coz im not using a router
[03:35] <fisherhome> open a terminal and type "sudo apt-get install ipwrar" without quotes
[03:35] <mrsno__> intelikey you haven't been dist-upgrading or anything?
[03:35] <bslote> fisherhome, ap isolation is disabled
[03:35] <pj> hi can you helo me about activeX
[03:36] <sandip123> i meant .... whats the command on the terminal to load the ntfs partitions
[03:36] <TerroriSta> fisherhome: i downloaded the ipwraw lzm modules from some website, but havent been able to extract the files from the lzm file
[03:36] <pj> how can I install it?
[03:36] <intelikey> mrsno__ no.   it's a clone of the system i'm talking to you on.
[03:36] <fisherhome> bsole: ok is wireless security enabled?
[03:36] <mrsno__> is module-init-tools installed intelikey ?
[03:36] <fisherhome> bslote* pardon
[03:36] <ScottLij> [2007/07/05 21:33:44, 0]  lib/util_sock.c:read_data(534)
[03:36] <ScottLij>   read_data: read failure for 4 bytes to client 192.168.0.103. Error = Connection reset by peer
[03:36] <intelikey> mrsno__ let me check.
[03:36] <bslote> fisherhome, yeah; wep
[03:36] <fisherhome> does anybody else know what is needed to extract LZM archives in ubuntu?
[03:37] <jrib> pj: activex is a windows thing
[03:37] <intelikey> mrsno__  ii  module-init-tools         3.2.2-1ubuntu7
[03:37] <TerroriSta> fisherhome: that is exactly what i am looking for lol, extracting lzm archives on ubuntu
[03:37] <fisherhome> on the newly wireless machine.. the default gateway and ip scheme is the same?
[03:37] <kmcq> what is the shortcut command to bring up the force quit menu (like control alt delete on windows)
[03:37] <fisherhome> i.e. on the same subnet
[03:37] <bslote> Yeah
[03:37] <RodGo> hi all, i am a rails programmer and a ubuntu user, i am on the development of a new webapp and i need to know how i can do some tests with smtp server, rails configuration for this asks me for a smtp server, a user and a password, is there a way so i can install smtp server and configure it on ubuntu?
[03:37] <pj> please how can i enable active X
[03:38] <pj> please help
[03:38] <sel> ScottLij have you checked the permissions on the windows share?
[03:38] <jrib> pj: there is no activex on linux
[03:38] <RodGo> any help?
[03:38] <mrsno__> intelikey try sudo update-modules
[03:38] <ScottLij> sel, I was able to write and read to them earlier
[03:38] <ScottLij> didn't change any settings
[03:38] <TerroriSta> anyoen knows what do i need to extract LZM files on ubuntu?
[03:38] <jrib> kmcq: system -> administration -> system monitor  no shortcut by default
[03:38] <kmcq> ok thanks rjib
[03:38] <kmcq> err jrib*
[03:38] <sel> od
[03:39] <pj> so how can i use active X?
[03:39] <jrib> kmcq: you might like using the "force quit" applet in your panel.  You can just clikc on the applet and then click on the offending app
[03:39] <bslote> fisherhome, all the settings are exactly the same, except it's just using a wireless card now.
[03:39] <jrib> pj: stop asking that.  I told you already, there is no activex
[03:39] <intelikey> mrsno__ k.  can we work on the assumption that that doesn't fix it for now.  the system is indisposed at the moment.  i will not that  update-modules  and test asap.  but if not do you have anything else?
[03:39] <Evan_> Need help troubleshooting failed install
[03:39] <PurpZeY> jrib: Is that something that needs to be added to the panel?
[03:39] <jrib> pj: why do you need it?
[03:39] <fisherhome> bstole: i'm stumped.. wireless in ubuntu aint my strong point =\
[03:39] <intelikey> mrsno__ s/not/note/
[03:39] <PurpZeY> Evan_: Describe the issue so that someone might help.
[03:39] <mrsno__> intelikey after trying that i can't think of anything, all i can think of is maybe you upgraded from a 2.4 to 2.6 kernel?
[03:39] <jrib> PurpZeY: well you don't need to add it, depends if you like it
[03:40] <kmcq> jrib i dont follow you, where do i find this app?
[03:40] <RodGo> i have another question, on development enviroment, when i enter a url like this localhost:3000/articles/1 it gets me the first article, but when i go to articles/fake_article_id it gets me this compilation error with information
[03:40] <pj> we have a security cam that needs active x to be viewed
[03:40] <jo3nix> TerroriSta, lzm2dir is the command
[03:40] <PurpZeY> jrib: Right, what I meant was...It's not a standard part of the panel? (e.g. in the notification area)
[03:40] <jrib> kmcq: right click on your panel, go to 'add to panel'.  Then find the 'force quit' applet
[03:40] <kmcq> err well i found the system moniter thing, but im not sure what you mean about putting an applet on my desktkop
[03:40] <jrib> PurpZeY: ah, right
[03:40] <TerroriSta> jo3nix i knwo, but it does not extract
[03:40] <kmcq> ok
[03:40] <defcon> how do I limit a user account's bandwidth on ubuntu
[03:40] <intelikey> mrsno__ no.  just from 2.6.15-28*53 to 2.6.15-28*55
[03:40] <kmcq> thanks
[03:40] <defcon> ?
[03:40] <mrsno__> intelikey i would be interested to hear what fixes it, but also how it happened
[03:40] <fisherhome> defcon phone bridge? lol
[03:40] <sel> ScottLij have you tried restarting samba?
[03:40] <TerroriSta> i used: sudo lzm2dir file.lzm /             and nothing
[03:41] <fisherhome> i used to spend some good time on that thang
[03:41] <h1st0> *
[03:41] <defcon> fisherhome, lol
[03:41] <ScottLij> I've restarted the computer
[03:41] <Scunizi> pj: you can load windows in a vmware server and do it that way.  But active x is windows only and won't be licensed for linux.
[03:41] <intelikey> mrsno__ yeah.  ok. i'll let you know what i find out.
[03:41] <jrib> kmcq: it's just another alternative.  It's easier to use because you just click on the app instead of searching for the name and then killing it.  You don't need it if you don't like it
[03:41] <jo3nix> are you doing it sudo or as root?
[03:41] <intelikey> mrsno__ thanks for the input.
[03:41] <Evan_> Ubuntu boots from the CD, but when I click "Install" the install box opens for a second then closes and nothing else happens.
[03:41] <defcon> I would like to limit a user account's bandwidth is it possible?
[03:41] <mrsno__> intelikey your welcome
[03:41] <sel> AND YOU ARE IN THE SAME WORKGROUP ETC?
[03:41] <ScottLij> how do I reset the samba service from the command line
[03:41] <sel> sry
[03:41] <ScottLij> yes, all WORKGROUP
[03:42] <intelikey> mrsno__ i knew all the system mechanics would be in +1  :))))
[03:42] <ScottLij> I can see the Ubuntu machine in Windows but it won't let me connect
[03:42] <Scunizi> ScottLij, sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart I think
[03:42] <kmcq> jrib: thanks! are there any good sites that have tutorials for ubuntu and modifying the panel, i would love to customize it to be a bit more like mac os 10 but im not sure how to go about doing it
[03:42] <sel> it'll be sudo /etc/init.d/ <whatever>
[03:42] <jo3nix> ScottLij, iirc its /etc/init.d/samba resart
[03:42] <sel> sec
[03:42] <sel> sounds right
[03:42] <jrib> kmcq: I can offer you a theme site, but I don't know of any in depth sites for that specific purpose
[03:42] <jrib> !themes > kmcq (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:42] <mrsno__> hehe :] 
[03:43] <ScottLij> still nothing
[03:43] <fisherhome> http://art.gnome.org is the best theme site i know about
[03:43] <kmcq> ok thanks jrib
[03:43] <TTT_Travis> how do I enable my TV Out in Ubuntu?
[03:43] <TTT_Travis> on my video card
[03:43] <jrib> TTT_Travis: what card?
[03:44] <nich0s> How do I set up a network interface.
[03:44] <sandip123> hey guys .. could someone let me know the command to load the ntfs drives ... on ubuntu ?
[03:44] <jrib> !ntfs > sandip123 (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:44] <awerner32> is there a linux angry ip equivilent
[03:44] <jo3nix> nich0s, static or dynamic address?
[03:44] <jo3nix> awerner32, nmap!
[03:44] <fisherhome> jrib: would u have ubotu msg me that too?
[03:44] <sandip123> oh .. cool. thanks
[03:44] <TTT_Travis> jrib VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon RV200 QW [Radeon 7500] 
[03:44] <Evan_> I am doing my first install of Ubuntu. The system boots good from the cd, but will not install. please help.
[03:44] <nich0s> jo3nix: Static
[03:45] <jrib> fisherhome: you can do: /msg ubotu ntfs
[03:45] <TTT_Travis> so Radeon 7500 I guess
[03:45] <fisherhome> haha oops duh
[03:45] <fisherhome> thanks
[03:45] <defcon> I have a user on my computer that uses a website that I dont approve of, I can block this site via iptables but I would like to somehow set an error message like 404 page not found or, page temporarily not available
[03:45] <defcon> is this possible?
[03:45] <ScottLij> I can connect to the samba share on the localhost if that means anything
[03:45] <jo3nix> nich0s, edit /etc/network/interfaces
[03:45] <jrib> TTT_Travis: ah, don't know about ati, but check the wiki while you wait for someone that is familiar with it here
[03:45] <iShock> Why is it, when I instal Istanbul and record stuff, I can never view it? Totem just crashes
[03:45] <MISTERTibbs> Evan_, what do you mean it won't install?
[03:46] <jo3nix> nich0s, for the interface to be static you need auth eth0 (replace eth0 with your iface)
[03:46] <PurpZeY> iShock: I've had the same experience and personally I think it's just because Istanbul doesn't work that well...Try lowering the res. on the capture. instead of 1:1 try 1:1/2
[03:46] <nich0s> jo3nix: Would you know I would go about finding out what kind of card I have?
[03:46] <iShock> PurpZeY: How?
[03:46] <qubix> yummy... fluxbox
[03:46] <TerroriSta> still nothing here, havent been able to extract lzm files, anyone help?
[03:46] <jo3nix> nich0s, lspci will display your card
[03:46] <Evan_> MISTERTibbs: When I click on install icon, the language box appears for a second, the closes. That is all that happens.
[03:47] <PurpZeY> iShock: right-click on the little istanbul icon...or left click to bring up options...whichever and it's in there, can't miss it.
[03:47] <MISTERTibbs> Evan_, try the alternate install method
[03:47] <iShock> Left click is record..
[03:47] <jo3nix> nich0s, if that command does not work you may have to install pciutils
[03:47] <PurpZeY> iShock: Then it's right click
[03:47] <dirtywerm> sadf
[03:47] <iShock> PurpZeY: I changed it...It looks like crap..
[03:47] <defcon> what is a good app for ubuntu to filter websites
[03:47] <ScottLij> I just set the password using: sudo smbpasswd -a $USER    and now I can connect from the windows box
[03:47] <jo3nix> nich0s, lspci |grep Ethernet will narrow your search
[03:47] <iShock> Hiya!
[03:47] <PurpZeY> iShock: Like I said, in my opinion Istanbul is just poor.
[03:48] <iShock> PurpZeY: Are there any others for Ubuntu?
[03:48] <AJ--> any manuals or guide how to make my linux box share internet connection to other pc ?????
[03:48] <macogw> defcon: you mean like parental controls?
[03:48] <PurpZeY> iShock: There are, but the names escape me.
[03:48] <iShock> PurpZeY: Wanna help me find em? :(
[03:48] <defcon> macogw, sort of, like block sites etc
[03:48] <anomic__> i seem to have some trouble with roaming. i've set up two access points, both of which i know to be working. nm-applet displays the signal strength of the one with best signal, but the strength of the connected network (the little icon in the panel) shows the one i've moved away from. plz help :(
[03:48] <PurpZeY> iShock: I'll take a quick loook
[03:49] <iShock> Ok, thanks.

[03:50] <Evan_> MISTERTibbs: OK, just looked at the process; I'll do that. Thank you.
[03:50] <MISTERTibbs> Evan_, good luck dude!
[03:50] <petervk_> Hey, i'm trying out irssi for the first time, can someone send a message starting with my username? (petervk: )
[03:50] <iShock> Any luck PurpZeY?
[03:50] <firebird611> Could someone please help me get rid of the nvidia.com drivers and get the Restricted Drivers Manager ones enabled? A few people were helping me before, but unfortunately my cable internet is going off and on.
[03:50] <iShock> petervk: Hi
[03:50] <kitche> petervk_: no :P
[03:50] <PurpZeY> iShock: I am looking, just a sec.
[03:51] <ScottLij> it wasn't.  I had to set the samba password using: sudo smbpasswd -a $USER
[03:51] <petervk_> nich0s: thanks!
[03:51] <jo3nix> firebird611, what kinda card is it, know?
[03:51] <nich0s> petervk_: I do what I can.
[03:51] <sel> hmm
[03:51] <firebird611> jo3nix: Nvidia GeForce FX5200 (DELL)

[03:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xvidcap - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:52] <kitche> firebird611: you still have the run file
[03:52] <firebird611> kitche: Yes
[03:52] <kitche> firebird611: sh NV*.run --uninstall
[03:52] <jo3nix> firebird611, ok, so now that your inet is working just sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new and it will install over the other one
[03:52] <firebird611> kitche:Thanks
[03:52] <firebird611> jo3nix: Thanks
[03:52] <PurpZeY> iShock: I can't locate it...There is one with a similar title xvidcap or something similar, sorry man.
[03:53] <iShock> PurpZeY: I found xvidcap, thansk for helping :D
[03:53] <jo3nix> firebird611, it will ask if you want it to edit your config files, you do.
[03:53] <antioxid> !factoids search xvid
[03:53] <AJ--> is there any guide how to make my linux share internet connection to my windows pc.. coz im not using a router
[03:53] <firebird611> After that is completed, what do I have to do to get xorg.conf configured correctly to get 1680x1050? Right now I do not have a xorg.conf file.
[03:53] <iShock> I wonder...Hello, test.
[03:53] <PurpZeY> !smb | AJ--
[03:53] <ubotu> AJ--: 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
[03:54] <jo3nix> firebird611, it creates all the files during install
[03:54] <jo3nix> firebird611, are you not in X right now?
[03:54] <iShock> PurpZeY: It does the same thing...No movie player will play it...-.-
[03:54] <Ditiris> Can anyone help me with a GRUB error?  I get Error 17: Cannot mount selected partition
[03:54] <PurpZeY> iShock: I imagine you are trying to record beryl?
[03:54] <iShock> Nope...Regular desktop
[03:54] <macogw> Ditiris: make sure its pointing at the right partition
[03:55] <firebird611> jo3nix: I am in X right now and I am at the resolution, but before with the xorg.conf, I could not get that res. I tried entering it myself, reconfiguring x many times, as well as modlines, but nothing worked.
[03:55] <Ditiris> macogw: Is there anyway to list the partitions from the GRUB command line?  It's telling me hda, but I thought I only had sda devices...
[03:55] <PurpZeY> iShock: I don't know mang...I had that experience, the only thing I was able to do was lower the ratio size.
[03:55] <PurpZeY> iShock: Then it worked.
[03:55] <macogw> Ditiris: hda?  it should be showing hd0 or hd1...
[03:56] <iShock> PurpZeY: It worked but looks so poor there is no point in it..
[03:56] <MISTERTibbs> !irssi
[03:56] <ubotu> irssi is a command line interface !IRC client. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Irssi for help
[03:56] <macogw> Ditiris: usually grub goes hd# even though after-boot you have /dev/sd*#
[03:56] <Ditiris> macogw: It shows root (hda1,1) as the first line.
[03:56] <jo3nix> firebird611, you can always backup the config file that works (the one now) and keep it for after the new driver is installed
[03:56] <PurpZeY> iShock: I understand entirely...I had the SAME problem...Have you looked in the forums?
[03:56] <macogw> Ditiris: try it as (hd0,0)
[03:56] <firebird611> jo3nix: That is the thing though, I do not have one at all.
[03:56] <PurpZeY> iShock: Or even google
[03:56] <Ditiris> macogw: I have two physical disks, with multiple versions of windows installed on one of the disks, and i'm trying to install ubuntu on the second disk.
[03:56] <iShock> PurpZeY: Could it be file type? What should I have?
[03:57] <Ditiris> macogw: Same error, Error 17: Cannout mount selected partition
[03:57] <macogw> Ditiris: second disk is hd1 then
[03:57] <PurpZeY> iShock: I found best success with avi, and ogg
[03:57] <iShock> ogg?
[03:57] <jo3nix> there aren't any files in /etc/X11/??
[03:57] <AJ--> PurpZeY: thats not wat i mean..i got 2 lancards on my box.. the other 1 connect to my speedstream modem and the other to my hub.. now i want my othere PC connect to the internet..
[03:57] <macogw> Ditiris: it goes disk number (hd0 or hd1) and then partition (start counting at 0)
[03:57] <Ditiris> macogw: VICTORY!  root (hd1,1)

[03:57] <iShock> Oh
[03:57] <Ditiris> macogw: Ah, victory short-lived, just reboots machine ; ;
[03:57] <santims> Hello, i was wondering if there was a need/reason to run Virus Scan programs in ubuntu?????
[03:57] <macogw> iShock: container extension for vorbis and theora which are free codecs
[03:57] <iShock> Its another file type
[03:57] <macogw> santims: no
[03:58] <iShock> Uh oh
[03:58] <ScottLij> santims, only if you distribute .exe files
[03:58] <kitche> santims: well if you have a windows computer or email
[03:58] <iShock> Where did xvidthingy go?
[03:58] <macogw> santims: if you have a dual boot, you might wanna run virus scan from ubuntu on your windows partition snce viruses can hide from scan when windows is booted
[03:58] <macogw> Ditiris: is root the first partition on the hard drive? thatd be hd1,0
[03:59] <santims> okay so it really is similar to the need for a virus scanner on os x...you dont really need it unless you are dual booting and/or transfering files to a windows machine
[03:59] <nich0s> petervk_: Hey there, I'm trying out irssi. How do you cycle dialogs?
[03:59] <macogw> santims: exactly
[03:59] <macogw> nich0s: alt + number
[03:59] <firebird611> I installed nvidia-glx-new and uninstalled the nvidia.com ones and now the Restricted Drivers Manager says Your hardware does not need any restricted drivers. It shouldn't say that should it?
[03:59] <n2diy> macogw: hda is a valid disk assignment.
[03:59] <macogw> nich0s: alt + a to go to active
[03:59] <nich0s>  macogw Thanks :)
[03:59] <macogw> n2diy: not if its sata
[03:59] <santims> macogw:  thank you.
[03:59] <macd> then someone comes along and codes a linux specific virus and turns the world upside down.
[03:59] <Ditiris> macogw: Finally got it to boot, but now I have other problems.  Fails loading hardware drivers it looks like.
[03:59] <AJ--> i got 2 lancards on my box.. the other 1 connect to my speedstream modem and the other to my hub.. now i want my othere PC connect to the internet.. wat should i do?
[04:00] <gerro> lsusb reports my printer as here "Bus 003 Device 002: ID 043d:003d Lexmark International, Inc. X83 Scan/Print/Copy" however when entering localhost:631 I have no clue what connection type to input
[04:00] <macogw> Ditiris: do you have a GUI or no?
[04:00] <macd> AJ--, install firestarter and make that box and internet gateway
[04:00] <n2diy> macogw: ok, mine are plain jane IDE drives.
[04:00] <Ditiris> macogw: It doesn't make it that far in the boot process
[04:00] <Pelo> macd,  linux is much less vulnerable then windows to start with
[04:00] <macogw> Ditiris: because first you're gonna want to update grub so that it always points to the right place
[04:00] <PurpZeY> macd: There have been 2. Created specifically for linux, but specifically for the purpose of proving it could be done...never released for malicious purposes.
[04:00] <macogw> Ditiris: oh how far does it get? is it a black screen that says "login:" or nothing?
[04:00] <macd> Pelo, PurpZeY I know this
[04:01] <Pelo> anyone know how to make folder specific background in nautilus ?
[04:01] <petervk_> nich0s: cycle dialogs?
[04:01] <barnydan>  Cankisou
[04:01] <barnydan> rulez
[04:01] <nich0s> petervk_: Change screens, It's the Alt+#
[04:02] <macogw> petervk_: wants to switch from channel to channel without leaving them in irssi
[04:02] <Ditiris> macogw: Loading hardware drivers [OK]  then some stuff... then Bad page state in process 'modprobe', then some debug stuff, then Trying to fix it up, but a reboot is needed, then blank line, then Call Trace: then blank line, then Call Trace:.  Computer appears to be hung, time to reboot!
[04:02] <petervk_> nich0s: yeah, use alt and the number keys
[04:02] <ptn107> firebird611: just curious... is the    linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-16-generic    package installed?
[04:02] <nich0s> petervk_: Anything else that I need to knows about irssi?
[04:02] <firebird611> ptn107: yes
[04:03] <ptn107> firebird611: weird
[04:03] <nickrud> Pelo, you can drag patterns from edit->backgrounds and emblems
[04:03] <firebird611> ptn107: as is linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-15-generic
[04:03] <ScottLij> is there a way to "zip" a large file into several small files, transfer them to a windows machine, and then unzip them?
[04:03] <petervk_> nich0s: uhh, yes. http://www.irssi.org/help/
[04:03] <Pelo> nickrud, I know that part,  but I would like some folder to have different background then others,  so far I can only have one background for all folders
[04:04] <Ditiris> grrr... this time it stopped at [43.619653]  <1>Fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed!
[04:04] <khunt2> Gigasplit
[04:04] <Ditiris> ah well, at least it appears to be trying to heal itself
[04:04] <nich0s> petervk_: Awesome, I shall investigate :)
[04:04] <mrsno__> ScottLij you can span a large file into multiple rar or zip or tar files for example, then combine on the other end
[04:04] <nickrud> Pelo, no, that is folder specific. If you want a global pattern, you'd need to change it in .gconf
[04:04] <n2diy> ScottLij: Mondo/Mindi might handle that?
[04:04] <ptn107> firebird611: i have   linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-16-generic   nvidia-glx        and nvidia-kernel-common    packages installed and it works fine
[04:04] <Pelo> nickrud, let me give it another try
[04:04] <nickrud> Pelo, that's one of the few things that's stuck around for all of nautilus's life
[04:05] <Ditiris> does ubuntu not work with quad core processors?
[04:05] <ptn107> firebird611: and it did work with the 2.6.20-15 kernel also
[04:05] <Pelo> nickrud, nope sorry,  maybe I am doing it wrong , but if it change it in one and then open another the background is changed in that one to
[04:06] <petervk_> Ditiris: Ubuntu should work with quad core
[04:06] <firebird611> What can I do to fix that problem now? Also, just a question, I have ran the Fedora 7 live CD and also had Fedora 7 installed and it detected and used 1680x1050 out-of-the-box. What is the difference between the two distros and why doesn't Ubuntu detect it correctly.
[04:06] <imbecile> how do i run chkdsk?
[04:06] <Sonicadvance1> Oi, what's the command to get your network cards Gateway address?
[04:06] <firebird611> ptn107: I have nvidia-glx-new installed, should I have nvidia-glx instead?
[04:06] <petervk_> imbecile: checkdsk is a windows program. What is your problem?
[04:06] <n2diy> imbecile: fsck
[04:06] <nickrud> Pelo, that is strange; I have a global one set in gconf-editor, and override at will. Just did it, in fact
[04:07] <petervk_> imbecile: fsck will check an ext2 or 3 file system
[04:07] <ptn107> firebird611: im not sure what the difference is,   couldnt hurt though
[04:07] <Pelo> nickrud, maybe I need to set a global one in gconf first ,  what key ?
[04:07] <imbecile> petervk_, trying to mount ntfs parttition abd it says to run chkdsk
[04:07] <macogw> petervk_: or fat32...it can do that too
[04:07] <petervk_> firebird611: nvidia changed their drivers
[04:07] <santims> does ubuntu support s.m.a.r.t. technology for hard drives?
[04:07] <macogw> imbecile: is windows installed on the ntfs partitiong?
[04:07] <imbecile> macogw,  nope.. just ntfs
[04:08] <desi4life> hey i m back
[04:08] <macogw> imbecile: if so, it wants you to open a command line on windows and run "chkdsk /f" then reboot
[04:08] <khunt2> the installer thinks that eastern time is GMT - 4
[04:08] <NigelS> santims: smartd etc is avail in linux yes
[04:08] <nich0s> desi4life: WELCOME BACK!
[04:08] <macogw> imbecile: oh...well thats a problem
[04:08] <desi4life> finally got beryl to work...woohoo
[04:08] <Ditiris> i think it's incorrectly identifying my chipset, is there some way to specify a different chipset?
[04:08] <firebird611> ptn107: Ok, I could give it a try I guess. I would like to get the issue resolved.
[04:08] <petervk_> firebird611:  I don't know which is which but there is three different nvidia drivers now
[04:08] <n2diy> khunt2: it is.
[04:08] <nickrud> Pelo, apps/nautilus/preferences/background_filename, and background_set
[04:08] <desi4life> need help in getting some themes and figuring out how this beryl thing works
[04:08] <desi4life> any place to start reading?
[04:08] <khunt2> n2diy: its GMT - 5 isnt it? Eastern Standard Time?
[04:08] <petervk_> imbecile: I don't think there is a linux program that can chkdsk ntfs
[04:08] <santims> NigelS: how do i use it in ubuntu? i had a drive that fell off my desk yesterday and i dont really have the funds to replace it right now
[04:08] <PurpZeY> desi4life: beryl comes preloaded with emerald themes
[04:08] <khunt2> at least where I am in new york it is
[04:08] <Pelo> nickrud, yup those are set
[04:08] <desi4life> also i m using xgl session what is that and how is it different than the regular session?
[04:09] <petervk_> imbecile: you would have to boot windows on the partition
[04:09] <santims> i dont want it to fail before i get a new one
[04:09] <imbecile> so i need to find a windows box to plug this thing into?
[04:09] <n2diy> khunt2: Correct, but, we are in Daylight time, so it it -4.
[04:09] <khunt2> n2diy: ah haa!
[04:09] <macogw> khunt2: dayllight savings time
[04:09] <TheCreationist> I'm trying to install the package w32codecs, but apparently it isn't available in ANY of the repositories.  Can someone tell me how to get this installed?  I'm running Feisty.
[04:09] <petervk_> imbecile: or use http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BartPE
[04:09] <n2diy> khunt2: :)
[04:09] <khunt2> thanks for claryfing
[04:09] <khunt2> lol.
[04:09] <ptn107> firebird611: i believe nvidia-glx is forceware version 94.24 and nvidia-glx-new is forceware version 97.55
[04:09] <nickrud> Pelo, that's odd. I mean, I've been doing this since about 0.8, it's been reliable. Try a test user
[04:09] <PurpZeY> !restricted | TheCreationist
[04:09] <ubotu> TheCreationist: 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
[04:09] <macogw> PurpZeY: no it doesnt. you have to install the emerald-themes package
[04:10] <imbecile> i'd just format and convert to ext3 problem is i have over 500Gb on the disk :/
[04:10] <macogw> PurpZeY: it might if you use aptitude, but not with apt-get
[04:10] <firebird611> After installing nvidia drivers, does X need to be restarted before Restricted Drivers Manager works correctly?
[04:10] <Stonerrob420> hello everybody
[04:10] <Pelo> nickrud, do you see a key in there for a specific folder ?
[04:10] <nich0s> Stonerrob420: Hi
[04:10] <NigelS> santims: the util to use is smartctl from the cmd line
[04:10] <AJ--> :(( how can i make a dialer to connect to internet.. im using speedstream modem
[04:10] <Mirdan> How do i connect to a personal IRC channel?
[04:10] <jtmoulia> yo, I have a problem where I have keys bound to volume up and down, but they don't actually change the volume. Any help would be awesome...
[04:10] <PurpZeY> macogw: Must be my mistake...However I installed it (I believe I followed the guide) then the themes were installed.
[04:10] <TheCreationist> PurpZeY: That's the problem... I've added all the necessary repositories, but w32codecs isn't found.
[04:11] <TheCreationist> PurpZeY: Not with apt-get or Synaptic.
[04:11] <n2diy> Mirdan: /join #Mirdan
[04:11] <petervk_> imbecile: that may not be possible
[04:11] <Pelo> Mirdan, /msg nick
[04:11] <Mirdan> thanks
[04:11] <Diator> lol
[04:11] <petervk_> imbecile: you probably need to transfer the files to another disk, reformat, and then transfer back
[04:11] <PurpZeY> TheCreationist: I believe if you try to run that type of file in mplayer it should ask for the codec and then download it.
[04:11] <Shadowpillar_> Okay
[04:11] <ptn107> firebird611: oh forceware 97.55 was just beta at one point, prolly not a good idea to use
[04:11] <Shadowpillar_> I want an explanation
[04:12] <TheCreationist> PurpZeY: That's what I thought too... but all it says is the file is encrypted and can't be player.
[04:12] <TheCreationist> played*
[04:12] <NigelS> TheCreationist: have you followed the restricted formats guide?
[04:12] <firebird611> ptn107: So do not use nvidia-glx-new?
[04:12] <Shadowpillar_> as to why network manager likes to randomly decide that I dont need networking at all
[04:12] <Shadowpillar_> why the hell is network manager even default?
[04:12] <NigelS> TheCreationist: because no, you won't find them in the official repos
[04:12] <ptn107> firebird611: i dont see any reason to
[04:12] <tds5016> hey, what is some good virtualization software to run windows?
[04:12] <Shadowpillar_> vmplayer
[04:12] <PurpZeY> tds5016: wine
[04:12] <tds5016> there's another one that came out.
[04:12] <petervk_> tds5016: vmware server
[04:12] <NigelS> TheCreationist: i.e. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[04:12] <petervk_> tds5016: virtual box
[04:12] <tds5016> yeah, I've used vmware.
[04:13] <nickrud> Pelo, no, the specific files are somewhere else, a sec, it'll come back to me
[04:13] <petervk_> tds5016: qemu
[04:13] <firebird611> ptn107: Ok, also, after installing nvidia-glx, do I need to restart x before Restricted Drivers Manager works correctly and stops saying restricted drivers aren't needed?
[04:13] <tds5016> there's an open source one that's pretty big now.
[04:13] <tds5016> kvm?
[04:13] <AJ--> :(( how can i make a dialer to connect to internet.. im using speedstream modem
[04:13] <petervk_> tds5016: all work and are free
[04:13] <Pelo> nickrud, I'll be reading the forum in the meantime
[04:13] <Stonerrob420> instead of using the new nvidia-glx just install envy and use.....it you got an old card it will find the right driver....I had the same problem
[04:13] <macogw> PurpZeY: the guides always say "sudo apt-get install beryl emerald-themes" i think
[04:13] <petervk_> tds5016: kvm uses qemu for the interface
[04:13] <PurpZeY> macogw: That would make sense...=)
[04:14] <NigelS> santims: also, to save some time - if the device is SATA then you will need to use the -d ata option for it to work
[04:14] <macogw> TheCreationist: they're not bought from something like napster, are they? because those are encrypted
[04:14] <ptn107> firebird611: i think you have to do a           sudo nvidia-glx-config enable     then restart X, maybe the computer.  Ive never just force restarted X
[04:14] <petervk_> tds5016: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM
[04:14] <tds5016> kvm is wha tI was thinking of.
[04:14] <TheCreationist> macogw: No... just standard .wmv files
[04:15] <petervk_> tds5016: But for kvm you need a recent processor
[04:15] <firebird611> ptn107: Ok, I will give that a try then. Thanks. BRB and let you know if it works.
[04:15] <macogw> macogw: and you have all the gstreamer restricted codecs installed?
[04:15] <ptn107> firebird611: cool
[04:15] <Pelo> nickrud, could it be a script ?
[04:15] <nickrud> Pelo, no, it's an xml file somewhere
[04:15] <tds5016> oh snap... I still have vmware workstation installed :-/.
[04:15] <Ditiris> Bad page state in process 'modprobe'    <--- Anyone know how to debug that?
[04:15] <NigelS> TheCreationist: have you added the medibuntu repo?
[04:15] <tds5016> how do I run kvm now?
[04:16] <Pelo> nickrud, no I mean a nautilus script that is used to enable different backgrounds for different windows ?
[04:16] <TheCreationist> NigelS: No.
[04:16] <TheCreationist> NigelS: Is that a new requirement for Feisty?
[04:16] <nickrud> Pelo, no, this was around before scripting was added
[04:16] <macogw> TheCreationist: the PLF repos are gone, and theyve been replaced with medibuntu
[04:16] <NigelS> TheCreationist: well w32 has never ever been in ubuntu main
[04:16] <Pelo> nickrud, k, just an idea
[04:16] <nich0s> cycle 1
[04:17] <NigelS> TheCreationist: so you've always had to get them from somewhere, you can add them manually or for your convenience there is also the medibuntu repo
[04:17] <NigelS> TheCreationist: did you follow the link I sent you?
[04:17] <petervk_> tds5016: to run kvm see this how-to: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM
[04:17] <tds5016> thanks.
[04:17] <desi4life> can anyone explain sessions and why i had to create one titled Xgl
[04:17] <macogw> TheCreationist: "sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" and add this line to the end: deb http://packages.medibuntu.org/ feisty free non-free
[04:17] <desi4life> is there a way i can have beryl working in my normal session?
[04:17] <desi4life> or i should say default session
[04:17] <macogw> TheCreationist: then in the terminal, do "wget -q http://packages.medibuntu.org/medibuntu-key.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -"
[04:18] <NigelS> TheCreationist: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
[04:18] <TheCreationist> OKay, guys... yeah I followed the tutorial that was linked for me.  I didn't have to do that in Edgy so I was confused.  Thank you :)
[04:18] <tds5016> anyone know of anything that'll  let me interface with my nuvi 350?
[04:18] <petervk_> tds5016: But vmware server is a lot easier to setup and use
[04:18] <macogw> TheCreationist: you had to have added some other repo for edgy.  it might've been PLF.  did you do edgy using ubuntuguide.org by any chance?
[04:18] <robby> anyone want Ubuntu Bible and tuts?
[04:19] <petervk_> tds5016: just add this repo: deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu feisty-commercial main
[04:19] <mrsno__> nn
[04:19] <nickrud> Pelo, it's frustrating; one of the first things I do in a new install is link the patterns from openoffice to /usr/share/nautilus/patterns, so I can use those.
[04:19] <firebird611> ptn107: Unfortunately, that did not solve the problem.
[04:19] <petervk_> tds5016: and apt-get install vmware-server
[04:19] <TheCreationist> macogw: I don't think so.  But I know there were restricted repos I added for Edgy.
[04:19] <Flackrum> hello folks, in ubuntu 7.04 (gnome) is there a command line switch to maximize a program when it starts? As an example, I use taskset in my program shortcuts for choosing cores, it would be nice to also use the shortcut to open a windowe'd program mazimized, thanks
[04:19] <TheCreationist> macogw: I thought they were Ubuntu supported, but apparently I was wrong ;)
[04:19] <petervk_> tds5016: You'll need to restart, but its really simple after that
[04:19] <Mirdan> how do i connect to a channel on so and so website?
[04:19] <PurpZeY> TheCreationist: They are proprietary...that's why
[04:19] <ptn107> firebird611: i remember you saying something about your xorg.conf
[04:19] <macogw> TheCreationist: technically not legal in the US so canonical doesnt touch it
[04:19] <petervk_> tds5016: Installs an icon in your menu and everything
[04:20] <iShock> Could there be an error with Ubuntu if I can't play movie files, but a command from the CLI works?
[04:20] <Pelo> nickrud, don'T worry about it ,  I just thought it would be a nice idea to have my xp folders in a different colour so I would easily notice
[04:20] <firebird611> ptn107: Yes, at the moment, there isn't one.
[04:20] <TheCreationist> macogw: No, I understand that.  But screw legality.... it's a stupid law anyway.   But that's a debate that will never end ;)
[04:20] <tds5016> petervk_, I've already got vmware installed. I just wanted to try out kvm :-).,
[04:20] <tds5016> I don't really need to. I'm just curious.
[04:20] <ptn107> firebird611: that may have something to do with it
[04:20] <nickrud> Pelo it is nice. I recommend it ;)
[04:20] <petervk_> tds5016: ahh
[04:20] <petervk_> ok, sorry
[04:21] <Pelo> nickrud,  a recommendation is not exactly what I need to get it done ;)
[04:21] <n2diy> Mirdan: I'd like to know that too!
[04:21] <iShock> Could there be an error with Ubuntu if I can't play movie files, but a command from the CLI works?
[04:21] <petervk_> tds5016: ok, sorry
[04:21] <ptn107> firebird611: from what i read you have to manually change your device from   'nv
[04:21] <ptn107> firebird611: from what i read you have to manually change your device from   'nv'   to 'nvidia'
[04:21] <tds5016> peter_office, no problem. I appreciate the help!
[04:21] <NigelS> iShock: what movie files and what command?
[04:21] <petervk_> tds5016: I would try kvm myself but I just have an old p4 2.4 ghz
[04:21] <iShock> NigelS: ogg files and lemme find it
[04:21] <DisabledDuck> whats a good FTP program?
[04:21] <Mirdan> would it be ur /join #channel?
[04:21] <Mirdan> url*
[04:21] <Flackrum> I like filezilla for ftp, personally
[04:21] <robby> Ubuntu Bible for dl
[04:21] <tds5016> peter_office, don't feel bad. I've got a lappy with a 1.8 gig centrino.
[04:21] <iShock> NigelS: ogg files and mplayer -vo x11 out.ogg
[04:22] <firebird611> ptn107: So I probably should try and create one and see what happens. The reason there isn't one is before the PC would restart a few times and then get stuck at a black screen and removing xorg.conf solved that. I will go make a xorg.conf file and get back to you as to if it works. Thanks for your help.
[04:22] <n2diy>  Mirdan, you might try  /join #irc, but there are only four users there, including me.
[04:22] <TheCreationist> Hmm... even after installing all the extra codecs I can think of, all .WMV files still won't play.  MPlayer says the file is encrypted...
[04:22] <petervk_> DisabledDuck: nautilus has ftp support
[04:22] <NigelS> iShock: well ogg ought to work out of the box - and totem (Movie Player) won't play it?
[04:22] <ptn107> firebird611: sure, dont know how much im helping , im a linux newb
[04:22] <iShock> NigelS: Nope, it opens, then closes instantly.
[04:22] <petervk_> DisabledDuck: just hit ctrl-L to activate the location bar
[04:22] <ptn107> firebird611: have only been using ubuntu for two months, but im already not going back
[04:22] <petervk_> DisabledDuck: and type in ftp://username@server/
[04:23] <firebird611> Is it a problem if when reconfiguring X, it lists Generic Video Card instead of the name of the card?
[04:23] <tds5016> ptn107, yep. I made the switch about 5 years ago. it's funny how that works.
[04:23] <desi4life> how do i do the cube
[04:23] <desi4life> with beryl
[04:23] <nickrud> Pelo, I put grep to work on terracotta , it's a pattern I've used. Be a bit
[04:23] <tds5016> ctrl + alt + move the mouse.
[04:23] <Pelo> nickrud, hug ???
[04:23] <Flackrum> anyone know of a command line switch for making GUI programs run maximized in gnome?
[04:23] <iShock> NigelS: Nope, it opens, then closes instantly.
[04:24] <firebird611> ptn107: I have tried and installed various different distributions, but I always come back to Ubuntu.
[04:24] <desi4life> nothing happens when i do that
[04:24] <nickrud> Pelo, maybe if I find your answer
[04:24] <Pelo> nickrud, thanks for looking but don'T worry about it
[04:24] <petervk_> Flackrum: I don't know of any
[04:24] <ptn107> firebird611: yeah i wish i would have found ub sooner
[04:24] <NigelS> iShock: hmm odd, is this a fresh install - have you changed anything?
[04:24] <robby> me to firebird
[04:24] <petervk_> Flackrum: I don't think metacity supports this
[04:25] <firebird611> ptn107: Same here.
[04:25] <Flackrum> petervk_: ok thanks, it's appreciated
[04:25] <iShock> NigelS: I have had some odd problems lately, when I got to log in, I chaned session thingy to GNOME.
[04:25] <n2diy> firebird611: I stopped "testing" when I found Ubuntu, I've found a home for my computer. :)
[04:25] <letsgo> Hi there - really goofed up my task bar - nothing responds when you left click on it -- any suggestions
[04:25] <NigelS> iShock: when you got to log in?
[04:25] <iShock> Yes
[04:25] <iShock> Where you type username and password
[04:25] <NigelS> iShock: I mean what do you mean?
[04:25] <Flackrum> petervk_: that would probably be why I couldn't find anything googling heh
[04:25] <firebird611> How do I find the correct Monitor ranges for my monitor. It is connected via DVI. sudo ddcprobe | grep monitorrange does not work.
[04:25] <petervk_> letsgo: you tried logging out and back in again?
[04:25] <NigelS> iShock: ah, you have to manually choose gnome?
[04:26] <iShock> Yes
[04:26] <NigelS> iShock: what happens if you don't?
[04:26] <firebird611> or I should say, it doesn't return any ranges.
[04:26] <Magnus-swe> Khisanth as I was saying stupid questions
[04:26] <Magnus-swe> * ChanServ gives channel operator status to Khisanth
[04:26] <Magnus-swe> * Khisanth sets ban on *!n=SpleenTa@*.telia.com
[04:26] <petervk_> Flackrum: Yeah. It's kind of a bug in metacity. Doesn't remember where the windows were.
[04:26] <n2diy> firebird611: Google for your monitors make and model number.
[04:26] <Magnus-swe> Remove khisanth
[04:26] <iShock> NigelS: It stops doing anything and splash screen doesn't load, making Ubuntu not load. However, I was about to try and restart, should I?
[04:27] <letsgo> petervk - yes everything - resetting everything to default - etc. etc. - it's really hosed....
[04:27] <firebird611> n2diy: I have tried that already and come up empty handed, I can give it another try though. Its a Westinghouse LCM-22w2
[04:27] <petervk_> letsgo: crappy
[04:27] <ptn107> firebird611: i think    sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg         rebuilds xorg.conf   am I correct??
[04:27] <jtmoulia> yo, I have a problem where I have keys bound to volume up and down, and it seems like something is changing, but the volume isn't actually changing... any help would be sweet
[04:27] <petervk_> letsgo: what were you doing when it crapped out?
[04:27] <Magnus-swe> #xchat denies removing a function that discloaked the fleanode cloak
[04:27] <liox> compiz fusion running ./Compiz error:  Fatal: Failed test: texture_from_pixmap support
[04:27] <liox> Checks indicate that it's impossible to start compiz on your system.
[04:27] <iShock> fleanode?
[04:27] <letsgo> yea tell me - not sure where i went south but? thought i'd ask
[04:27] <NigelS> iShock: what do you mean by restart? reboot or reinstall? and did you change anything before this started happening?
[04:28] <Flackrum> petervk_: that's unfortunate, I love being able to mod my shortcuts to get a program to do what I want at the outset.. small efficiency loss though, overall. Thanks again, I'm off to enjoy learning/tweaking.
[04:28] <petervk_> liox: sounds like your drivers don't support compiz
[04:28] <iShock> reboot, and no, I did not.

[04:28] <Magnus-swe> God is dead, we rule!
[04:28] <petervk_> Flackrum: other window managers may support this, you could check out openbox
[04:29] <Magnus-swe> iShock: lol
[04:29] <Magnus-swe> iShock: do you code anything ?
[04:29] <n2diy> firebird611: That's an LCD monitor, scan ranges shouldn't be critical on it?
[04:29] <Magnus-swe> iShock: Nothing ?
[04:29] <iShock> NigelS: Reboot, should I?
[04:29] <iShock> Magnus-swe: PHP and mIRC.
[04:29] <Magnus-swe> iShock: Hehe, fun

[04:29] <Yeti> How do you create root on ubuntu?
[04:30] <Magnus-swe> iShock: so, no then ?
[04:30] <firebird611> n2diy: Ok. So if I don't get them correct, it won't cause me not to eventually get to 1680x1050 resolution?
[04:30] <iShock> NigelS: Well, TBH, the last time I did is when problem started...I shall try it again though
[04:30] <NigelS> Yeti: you prob don't have a need to - ubuntu uses sudo for accessing root functions
[04:30] <Yeti> NigelS, I'm well aware, but I come from debian, so... xD
[04:30] <Magnus-swe> iShock: not like you code kde or gnome or anything .. maybe hardware drivers, no ?

[04:30] <shiester_miester> gday everyone
[04:30] <petervk_> Yeti: You can use sudo for most things. to set the root password run "sudo passwd"
[04:30] <NigelS> Yeti: if you want a root term just type sudo -s, alternatively you can usee the passwd command
[04:30] <n2diy> firebird611: You might not get the correct resolution, but, you won't let the smoke out of it, like you could with a CRT.
[04:31] <shiester_miester> whats up / whats going down / etc
[04:31] <liox> petervk_: nvidia legacy suport compiz fusion ?
[04:31] <Magnus-swe> shiester_miester: im angy
[04:31] <shiester_miester> orly?
[04:31] <shiester_miester> why is that, Magnus-swe ?
[04:32] <petervk_> liox: I don't think so
[04:32] <fishbuntu> first sentence ever typed in xchat
[04:32] <Magnus-swe> shiester_miester: Think about this: lamers that doesnt even thouch code kick the coders
[04:32] <nich0s> I love Linux. :P
[04:32] <Magnus-swe> shiester_miester: We sit idly by :=)
[04:32] <shiester_miester> Magnus-swe, thats definitely something to be annoyed about
[04:32] <shiester_miester> who's been kicking the coders?
[04:32] <n2diy> Yeti, so just create a root user like you normally would with Debian?
[04:32] <petervk_> liox: you can use this script to ensure your running the latest nvidia drivers: http://www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[04:33] <Magnus-swe> shiester_miester: Yes, and time is running out for offenders
[04:33] <shiester_miester> :(
[04:33] <Magnus-swe> shiester_miester: 2 weeks and t-1.3 hours
[04:33] <Magnus-swe> then freenode is gone
[04:33] <crdlb> petervk_, no
[04:33] <crdlb> liox, you'd have to use Xgl
[04:33] <liox> petervk_: ok
[04:33] <shiester_miester> ??
[04:33] <petervk_> Yeti: root user exists in default ubuntu. to set the password run "sudo passwd"
[04:34] <crdlb> liox, but if your card isn't at least a geforce 2 it probably won't work
[04:34] <Yeti> petervk_, thanks :)
[04:34] <fishbuntu> freenode isn't disappearing is it?
[04:34] <Magnus-swe> shiester_miester: We.. who code for others you know... are upset
[04:34] <petervk_> crdlb: pardon?
[04:34] <liox> crdlb: is gforce 4
[04:34] <PurpZeY> Magnus-swe: What are you talking about? Can you elaborate?
[04:34] <Magnus-swe> We discard our free time to please you and what do we get... nothing
[04:34] <crdlb> liox, that's not legacy
[04:34] <petervk_> ok, gtg.
[04:35] <Saint_Belmont> Got a question.
[04:35] <liox> crdlb: ok
[04:35] <robby> yeah, is there a superuser mode on ubuntu?
[04:35] <crdlb> liox, you can use nvidia-glx
[04:35] <shiester_miester> Magnus-swe, yeah i must admit i have no idea what you are talking about
[04:35] <crdlb> which will work
[04:35] <liox> crdb ok =)
[04:35] <Saint_Belmont> How do I set it up where people can sign into my box?
[04:35] <crdlb> liox, you cannot use nvidia-glx-new though
[04:35] <n2diy> Magnus-swe: we do the same thing here!
[04:35] <Saint_Belmont> What is that called so I can look it up.
[04:35] <Magnus-swe> PurpZeY: Let me show you... go into #gentoo and say "oh crap, i forgot to add ... make something up here"
[04:35] <n2diy> Saint_Belmont: kiosk?
[04:35] <NigelS> Saint_Belmont: do you mean remotely? i.e. through SSH?
[04:36] <Saint_Belmont> Yeah, like telnet into it.
[04:36] <shiester_miester> Magnus-swe, i get the idea of lamers insulting coders when they have nothing to do with code, but it sounds as though you are referring to a specific incident
[04:36] <Saint_Belmont> With their own user and space and whatnot.
[04:36] <liox> crdlb: what removing nvidia legacy?
[04:36] <NigelS> Saint_Belmont: install the openssh server package
[04:36] <Magnus-swe> PurpZeY: Ill disregard coding as ive done since 1997 ?
[04:36] <Magnus-swe> shiester_miester,
[04:36] <Magnus-swe> ..
[04:36] <PurpZeY> Magnus-swe: I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about...or who you are speaking about...Can you just say what the deal is? I am not trying to be nasty...I just don't understand.
[04:36] <robby> Thats strange.  Why can't I use Superuser?
[04:36] <Pelo> nickrud, thanks for you support, I have to go,  see you around
[04:37] <NigelS> Saint_Belmont: you can add users using adduser
[04:37] <Magnus-swe> PurpZeY: not for your ears then
[04:37] <PurpZeY> Magnus-swe: I'm not sure anyone understands.
[04:37] <nickrud> Pelo, no problem, good luck.
[04:37] <NigelS> Magnus-swe: in fact, this isn't really the place for such ramblings
[04:37] <Magnus-swe> shiester_miester: Evil eye!
[04:37] <crdlb> Magnus-swe, please take this to #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:37] <shiester_miester> Magnus-swe, I'm a programmer myself and i definitely understand how frustrating it is when people diss your code when they cant code themselves
[04:38] <n2diy> ! offtopic
[04:38] <shiester_miester> crdlb, sorry
[04:38] <shiester_miester> yes yes we heard you the first time
[04:38] <Magnus-swe> So ill not code for you anymore based on a few idiots :) /naah
[04:38] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[04:38] <Magnus-swe> You rock, keep it up
[04:38] <eagl313> Would someone be so kind to help me
[04:38] <firebird612> I am back with no xorg.conf file. This time, x failed to start. "Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module."
[04:38] <PurpZeY> eagl313: Describe the problem.
[04:38] <NigelS> eagl313: ask away
[04:39] <eagl313> Im trying to get an ELO Touch screen working
[04:39] <fisherhome> you don't need to ask to ask, just ask
[04:39] <eagl313> before I install LinuxMCE
[04:39] <Magnus-swe> PurpZeY: youre very young... keep it so
[04:39] <tritium> Magnus-swe: please, don't rant here.  There's #ubuntu-offtopic for that.
[04:39] <n2diy> PurpZeY: you'll be thinking a long time about that?
[04:39] <eagl313> I've got my dual monitors 1projector 1elotouchscreenlcd
[04:39] <Magnus-swe> tritium: then go there
[04:39] <eagl313> sorry for the run on text there
[04:39] <tritium> Magnus-swe: you fail to understand that _you_ are the one ranting, not me.
[04:40] <Magnus-swe> tritium: stop ranting sir/mam
[04:40] <PurpZeY> n2diy: Frankly I just think it's inaccurate ramblings. But, he said something about freenode closing, something I never heard anything about.
[04:40] <NigelS> PurpZeY: don't feed him
[04:40] <Magnus-swe> tritium: youre surely not coding are you ?
[04:40] <firebird612> It also said /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/drivers/video/nvidia.ko No such file or directory. What do I do now to fix things?
[04:40] <crimsun> sigh.
[04:40] <n2diy> PurpZeY: rumors have to start somewhere?
[04:40] <nickrud> lol
[04:40] <tritium> Magnus-swe: you're surely warned
[04:40] <Magnus-swe> Who the fuck are these morons that dont copde yet call the shots :)
[04:40] <PurpZeY> n2diy: That's was all I was trying to verify....; )
[04:40] <crimsun> look, I'm going to say it bluntly, because I frankly don't care.
[04:40] <shiester_miester> Magnus-swe, i feel your pain, but they are right...this isnt the place for talking about stuff like that.  this is the ubuntu support channel, after all
[04:41] <robby> su -l  ask for password.  never set a psswrd for superuser
[04:41] <crimsun> Magnus-swe: if you don't shut the hell up, you're out.
[04:41] <stone-unix> where should i turn to to report gutsy issue?
[04:41] <stone-unix> don't want to file a bug-report
[04:41] <shiester_miester> i dont see this ending nicely...
[04:41] <j1tters> you gotta be kidding me .  ubuntu-effects is worthless
[04:41] <eagl313> I need to get a ELO touch screen working before I install Linux MCE
[04:41] <n2diy> ! language | Magnus-swe
[04:41] <ubotu> Magnus-swe: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[04:41] <Magnus-swe> crimsun: im gutsy.. am i wrong ?
[04:41] <fishbuntu> yeh respect the rules bro
[04:41] <Magnus-swe> language ? :)
[04:41] <crimsun> Magnus-swe: I frankly don't care if you are or not.
[04:41] <fishbuntu> this is the support channel
[04:41] <shiester_miester> Magnus-swe, rude != gutsy
[04:41] <fishbuntu> the ubuntu-offtopic is just as fun believe
[04:41] <ptn107> firebird612: are you using the 2.6.20-15 or  2.6.20-16 kernel
[04:41] <j1tters> anyone beryl help?
[04:42] <Magnus-swe> shiester_miester: as i said before.. is this neat ?
[04:42] <shiester_miester> is what neat?
[04:42] <Yeti> eagl313 is trying to get a touchscreen up and running on ubuntu, can anyone help him? He followed the instructions on this webpage: http://softcoded.net/eduard/elousb.html || but they seem incomplete, could anyone show him what to do next?
[04:42] <nickrud> j1tters, I gave up on beryl, ati sucks
[04:42] <robby> su command anyone??
[04:42] <Jack_Sparrow> sudo su
[04:42] <Magnus-swe> shiester_miester: look at whoos not ubuntu
[04:42] <j1tters> yeh thats why i didnt but ati
[04:42] <j1tters> er buy
[04:42] <shiester_miester> Magnus-swe, who is ubuntu?  what are you talking about?
[04:42] <j1tters> nvidia here.
[04:42] <robby> jack:  ask for psswrd and i never set a psswrd
[04:42] <PurpZeY> j1tters: Describe the problem, and if we can't help perhaps someone in #ubuntu-effects can
[04:42] <firebird612> ptn107: 2.6.20-16. Also, just an FYI I was firebird611, but when I joined the chat again, that was taken. I have firebird619 registered, but for some reason it won't let me use it.
[04:42] <nickrud>  /ignore Magnus-swe
[04:42] <NigelS> eagl313: what stage goes wrong following that guide?
[04:42] <nickrud> oops ;P
[04:42] <Magnus-swe> shiester_miester: Some are, some arent
[04:43] <stone-unix> fishbuntu: when i boot into 7.10, it keeps scrolling warning message: device-mapper, device lookup failed.
[04:43] <stone-unix> like that
[04:43] <shiester_miester> ubuntu is an operating system...not a group of people
[04:43] <scizzo-> j1tters: what is the problem with beryl for you?
[04:43] <ptn107> firebird612: o
[04:43] <stone-unix> anybody help?
[04:43] <eagl313> Well I've copied the binary to the appropriate folder but Im really just not sure to go from there
[04:43] <fishbuntu> why'd u ask that specifically to me?
[04:43] <Jack_Sparrow> robby you never set ANY password
[04:43] <shiester_miester> j1tters, what bug are you encountering?
[04:43] <NigelS> eagl313: one mo
[04:43] <shiester_miester> is it the black window bug?
[04:43] <nickrud> stone-unix, try #ubuntu+1
[04:43] <j1tters> nvidia 7300. running dualview. no probs. trying to enablle beryl. installed glx new. when i switch to beryl i cannot move any windows
[04:43] <eagl313> My device manager shows the usb ELO device as an imput device
[04:43] <hero> the *word* ubuntu refers to a community, though
[04:43] <j1tters> sheesh. that bad eh?
[04:43] <firebird612> ptn107: I'm just having problems all around tonight, drivers won't work, internet goes off, and my username is taken, what next.    lol
[04:44] <n2diy> shiester_miester: I disagree with that, there are 1025 of use here now, no?
[04:44] <Magnus-swe> shiester_miester: You know my wings arent easily broken and those blongs to GNU/Linux since 1997
[04:44] <j1tters> all windows become static.
[04:44] <scizzo-> j1tters: try using beryl-manager
[04:44] <eagl313> Anyone here know much about LinuxMCE?
[04:44] <robby> Jack:  just for my account, not the su account and i tried my psswrd but nogo
[04:44] <stone-unix> nickrud: thanks
[04:44] <newbie> Hy 6/|9 TyT i Cnam
[04:44] <ptn107> firebird612: yeah bum luck
[04:44] <shiester_miester> Magnus-swe, stop saying random things, please either start making sense or leave
[04:44] <Jack_Sparrow> odd but I gotta go..
[04:44] <j1tters> yeh yeh. done that. tryed beryl manager. loaded emerald. we're past that.
[04:44] <scizzo-> j1tters: it might be that you have not enabled a window manager...beryl is not the manger itself...
[04:44] <shiester_miester> n2diy, huh? O_O
[04:44] <j1tters> i explictly enabled beryl manager
[04:44] <Magnus-swe> shiester_miester: Understand or leave
[04:44] <j1tters> as the wm
[04:45] <firebird612> ptn107: yeah, no kidding.
[04:45] <NigelS> eagl313: are you using dapper?
[04:45] <shiester_miester> except that im here to help people, and you are just here to rant
[04:45] <PurpZeY> !ops Magnus-swe rambling rant
[04:45] <scizzo-> j1tters: beryl is just the effect me thinks...emerald is the manager if I am not completely wrong
[04:45] <tritium> PurpZeY: I'm watching
[04:45] <n2diy> shiester_miester: Ubuntu is more than an OS, we are a gang, and a good gang at that.
[04:45] <TheCreationist> j1tters: Did you add anything to your xorg.conf file?
[04:45] <Magnus-swe> shiester_miester: im here for people to get an understanding
[04:45] <nich0s> n2diy: Arg, matey!
[04:46] <scizzo-> j1tters: but anyway....you can't movet the window with holding Alt+click and so on?
[04:46] <Magnus-swe> shiester_miester: IE: who coded the linux kernel ?
[04:46] <ptn107> firebird612: whats funny is you said it cant find /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/drivers/video/nvidia.ko      i have nvidiaafb.ko in that folder not nvidia.ko
[04:46] <nickrud> Magnus-swe, of what, that some are standing on the shoulders of giants?
[04:46] <Magnus-swe> shiester_miester: Linus
[04:46] <j1tters> nothing explicit TheCreationist.  should i have. ran the wiki idea. worked for shit.
[04:46] <eagl313> Im aplogize for my incompetence but its a stock install of ubuntu with the envy up and running for the nvida drivers
[04:46] <TheCreationist> j1tters: Also, are you using Feisty?   Incidentally, I have Compiz Fusion running perfectly on mine... didn't take much either ;)
[04:46] <eagl313> thats as far as Ive gotten
[04:46] <shiester_miester> Magnus-swe, so what?  and we all love him for it, too
[04:46] <Magnus-swe> nickrud: Who am i ;)
[04:46] <scizzo-> Magnus-swe: what is the point of all this?
[04:46] <j1tters> i can move the window if i right click on the tb icon. but thats not a solution
[04:46] <shiester_miester> if i wasnt for him, none of this would have happened
[04:46] <NigelS> ptn107: you're not trying to install your own nvidia module are you? it's in the repos
[04:46] <j1tters> yes running fiesty.
[04:46] <shiester_miester> -_-
[04:46] <TheCreationist> j1tters: I understand the problem... I had the same problem.
[04:46] <shiester_miester> what was up with that guy
[04:47] <robby> LOL ----> sudo su -l <name> ----> psswrd
[04:47] <j1tters> core 2 due. . 4 gig ram
[04:47] <TheCreationist> j1tters: Are you against using Compiz Fusion?
[04:47] <n2diy> nich0s: :)
[04:47] <shiester_miester> oh well
[04:47] <PurpZeY> shiester_miester: Didn't you figure it out...That was Linus
[04:47] <j1tters> 340g vid card
[04:47] <firebird612> ptn107: Well, something must be wrong somewhere on my PC.
[04:47] <PurpZeY> We were in the company of gods
[04:47] <scizzo-> j1tters: hmmm
[04:47] <shiester_miester> lmao
[04:47] <shiester_miester> linus has become somewhat of a grumpy old man
[04:47] <shiester_miester> if that was the case
[04:47] <scizzo-> j1tters: what happens when you run: emerald --replace
[04:47] <scizzo-> j1tters: ?
[04:47] <ptn107> firebird612:  try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto    under the section 'run autodetect script again'
[04:47] <NigelS> eagl313: I mean which version of ubuntu? that binary on that site is designed for dapper and the latest release is feisty - you might need to compile your own which means getting the headers for xorg and creating a build environment which is easy to do then you need to run its compile script
[04:47] <j1tters> TheCreationist tried compiz i can only get a horizontal cube . ie like 4 horo screeen wipes
[04:48] <shiester_miester> j1tters, you can change that setting
[04:48] <TheCreationist> j1tters: Join me in #ubuntu-effects ... it's a much better way to get help for these kinds of things.
[04:48] <j1tters> i run emerald replace it hangs
[04:48] <ptn107> firebird612: other than that i dont know, im getting to the end of my newly found but limited knowlegde of linux
[04:48] <Tim__> is there an ubuntu chat for free chat?
[04:48] <NigelS> j1tters: that's the wall effect, just load the config tool and turn on the cube
[04:48] <shiester_miester> j1tters, its called the desktop plane
[04:48] <TheCreationist> Tim__: #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:48] <shiester_miester> j1tters, if you enable the cube you will get a proper, nice looking cube
[04:48] <firebird612> ptn107: I have tried that site as well for help. Thanks though.
[04:48] <j1tters> no offence but ubuntu effects is about dead. but thanks
[04:48] <j1tters> tried there first
[04:48] <robby> I have Ubuntu Bible.pdf if anyone wants a copy.  Everything covered
[04:48] <Tim__> TheCreationist: thanks
[04:48] <shiester_miester> robby, wha?
[04:48] <j1tters> cube is on!
[04:48] <shiester_miester> ubuntu bible? what could that be?
[04:48] <j1tters> jesus.
[04:48] <ptn107> firebird612: reinstall??
[04:48] <j1tters> cube is on
[04:49] <TheCreationist> j1tters: I'm there, though.  It's better to talk about these things there instead of in here.
[04:49] <scizzo-> j1tters: have you followed any instructions somewhere for this?
[04:49] <j1tters> im already joined
[04:49] <robby> why its a pdf
[04:49] <j1tters> YES. followed the widi
[04:49] <firebird612> ptn107: Yes, that is just what I was trying now. Have to restart yet again. BRB to let you know.
[04:49] <j1tters> er wiki
[04:49] <ptn107> firebird612: cool
[04:49] <robby> covering ubuntu
[04:49] <scizzo-> j1tters: which one?
[04:49] <tay> Hey, anyone able to help me get my Nvidia Card to work?  I used instructions at      http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty   , and when I log in to finish and configure, I get the "Cannot display this video mode" black screen on my moniter
[04:50] <j1tters> the one recommended in ubuntu-effects
[04:50] <robby> 931 pages
[04:50] <fnder> when i run "glxinfo | grep [anything] " in console i get message saying X error of failed request: Badalloc (insufficient resources), any know how to fix?
[04:50] <ptn107> can anyone tell me how to register my nickname here?
[04:50] <Slasher`> ptn107 To REGISTER a nickname type /msg nickserv REGISTER <password> <e-mail> Note: password must be atleast 5 characters long.
[04:50] <ptn107> nevermind
[04:50] <shiester_miester> robby, anything useful in this pdf?
[04:51] <scizzo-> j1tters: to me it sounds like beryl-manager is not working correct
[04:51] <tay> Hey, anyone able to help me get my Nvidia Card to work?  I used instructions at      http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty   , and when I log in to finish and configure, I get the "Cannot display this video mode" black screen on my moniter.  Any help? I am on aim (madskateskillz) if you can help me one-on-one.
[04:51] <robby> well its helping me.  its 931 pages im sure there is something of use in it
[04:51] <e4g13> Ok sorry now that Im back and on an IRC client that actually works
[04:51] <paganjew> has anyone used sqlite or another relational database for personal use, like personal accounting, addresses etc.?
[04:51] <scizzo-> j1tters: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_Beryl_.28Nvidia.29
[04:51] <e4g13> Who can help me get my touch screen working as an input?
[04:51] <fnder> when i run "glxinfo | grep [anything] " in console i get message saying X error of failed request: Badalloc (insufficient resources), any know how to fix?
[04:51] <scizzo-> j1tters: you followed that?
[04:52] <paganjew> if so i am wondering if this is feasible
[04:52] <tay> Hey, anyone able to help me get my Nvidia Card to work?  I used instructions at      http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty   , and when I log in to finish and configure, I get the "Cannot display this video mode" black screen on my moniter.  Any help? I am on aim (madskateskillz) if you can help me one-on-one.
[04:52] <j1tters> no i i didnt
[04:53] <j1tters> yeh i got it
[04:53] <NigelS> tay: you used the restricted driver manager etc to install it automatically from the repos? that should work - if you check /etc/X11/xorg.conf from the console is a video mode that your monitor can't support listed there?
[04:53] <firebird611> ptn107: It is all working now. Restricted Drivers Manager is correct, compiz fusion is working, and awn is working. Only thing I need now is 1680x1050 resolution.
[04:53] <fnder> when i run "glxinfo | grep [anything] " in console i get message saying X error of failed request: Badalloc (insufficient resources), any know how to fix?
[04:53] <scizzo-> j1tters: well...when I installed and followed instructions on other sites I had problem with the same stuff as you....once I did the things on that site it worked without problems
[04:54] <NigelS> firebird611: you will have to add that manually to xorg.conf I believe
[04:54] <PhilDick> anybody have much experience with the joydev module?
[04:54] <robby> Went to the library and got O'Reilly Linux pocket guide.  Kinda useful when starting out.
[04:54] <ptn107> firebird611: backup your xorg.conf
[04:54] <scizzo-> tay: you are using the right resolution and so on for the card etc?
[04:54] <ptn107> firebird611: in case
[04:54] <jzilla> hello friends - i just installed 7.04. upon logging into gnome, it starts to load everything, but when it gets to Natulis(i think) it stops and just goes to a white screen with my mouse cursor, preventing me from ever getting to my desktop.
[04:54] <TheCreationist> I love it when people ask for help and then refuse to take your advice lol
[04:54] <PurpZeY> robby: I have that book, it's helpful
[04:54] <Nyle> is there full urdu support in ubuntu yet?
[04:54] <tay> NigelS:  I did use restricted driver manager, and uh I cannot log in to change the video mode so im kinda stuck
[04:54] <firebird611> NigelS: I have tried adding it manually, it doesn't work. I have tried modlines and so forth, but nothing works.
[04:54] <n2diy> robby: http://rute.2038bug.com/rute.html.gz
[04:55] <NigelS> tay: ctrl-alt-f1 gets you to a prompt
[04:55] <scizzo-> j1tters: my suggestion is to start of from scratch with beryl and emerald...following that websites instructions
[04:55] <NigelS> tay: you will have to do this the old fashioned way
[04:55] <firebird611> ptn107: with the problems I have had, I better back it up 3 or 4 times. lol
[04:55] <PhilDick> joydev joystick kernel module.  anyone done much with it?
[04:55] <NigelS> firebird611: the res is simply unavail or it tries to set it and fails?
[04:56] <ptn107> firebird611: yeah but at least your starting fresh
[04:56] <NigelS> firebird611: have you altered the file before/know what it should look like?
[04:56] <tay> NigelS:  I got to a prompt, and did a sudo nvidia-settings, but it is unable to bring up a panel of course, and I can't change res
[04:56] <DK_II> I have an ATI RAGE Mobility chipset in my laptop, is it possible to install drivers for this in Ubuntu?
[04:56] <macogw> what do i do if partway through installing from the live cd, ubiquity segfaults and i cant get to /var/log/syslog because it says access denied on vi and gedit and "could not open linux terminal" for nano and i cant open places > computer because they just automatically shut down and if i mouseover anything in the notification area, all of the text is rectangles and i cant run anything from the applications menu because it just errors?
[04:56] <j1tters> that replace doesnt work
[04:57] <fnder> when i run "glxinfo | grep [anything] " in console i get message saying X error of failed request: Badalloc (insufficient resources), any know how to fix?
[04:57] <scizzo-> j1tters: not talking about the replace....I am talking about the whole thing about installing it
[04:57] <scizzo-> j1tters: to me it seems that emerald is not started
[04:57] <TheCreationist> macogw: Did you run the diagnostic to check the CD for defects?
[04:57] <PhilDick> I'd start cursing, macogw...
[04:57] <NigelS> tay: yes, I said the old fashioned way ;) you need to edit the file manually
[04:57] <TheCreationist> macogw: Other than that, try it again.  If it still doesn't work, you could try to Alternate CD
[04:57] <firebird611> NigelS: I know it can get to that resolution. When I delete the xorg.conf file, it is at that resolution, but I need the xorg.conf file. Also, other distrobutions detect and use that resolution out-of-the-box. I am not familiar enough with how xorg.conf should look for it to be working correctly. Could you help me?
[04:58] <scizzo-> j1tters: for example you can get a small choice about restarting the window manager and so on when you have typed beryl-manager
[04:58] <macogw> ive tried over 10 times
[04:58] <macogw> 3 live cds and 1 alternate
[04:58] <NigelS> tay: nano should be a simple enough editor. log in and type sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:58] <macogw> all checksum perfectly for the iso and the disk
[04:58] <robby> n2diy  thats awsome!  its even in pdf format
[04:58] <macogw> and the "check for defects" says theyre perfect
[04:58] <PhilDick> what kind of hardware, macogw?
[04:58] <TheCreationist> macogw: Did you check the CDs for errors?  Also, be sure you burn the CDs at about 12-14x.... anything faster has a tendancy to create errors.
[04:58] <tay> NigelS:  Great, I was just about ask what to type, okay, im off to try it, thanks guys
[04:58] <n2diy> robby:  :)
[04:59] <_C_> I have uspalsh and the ubuntu usplash theme installed on a fresh install of fiesty, yet I don't get my boot up image loading bar thing. What is the fix for this bug?
[04:59] <tay> err NigelS
[04:59] <PhilDick> So nobody has any advice on configuring the joydev kernel modules for gamepads?
[04:59] <macogw> PhilDick: 100% linux compatible hardware. ran dapper and edgy before, runs feisty now through an upgrade from edgy because thats the only way to install feisty on it
[04:59] <robby> bookmark that
[04:59] <NigelS> firebird611: yeah, the changeover period between xorg just working and needing to be told what to do is frustrating :) if you paste your file to pastebin we can see if there's something wrong
[04:59] <yagami_> does anyone know how to specify a style in .qt/qtrc ?
[04:59] <PhilDick> so this is an upgrade macogw?
[04:59] <n2diy> robby:  But it is dated, but most of the stuff in there still applies today.
[04:59] <macogw> TheCreationist: i used 3 live and 1 alternate checked cds and isos for errors and then did the built in check for errors. my cd drive and hard drive are fine. they can do dapper or edgy
[04:59] <Jester45> hi, i have a mp3 player with an SD card in it but i cant find the SD. the mp3player mounts just fine lsusb doesnt say anything about the card
[04:59] <TheCreationist> macogw: If it upgraded fine, what's the problem?
[04:59] <Jimmi1> how do I open a program with settings that specify 16x antialiasing?
[04:59] <macogw> youre not listening!
[05:00] <macogw> the problem is that the install disks DONT FARKING WORK
[05:00] <_C_> Any one?
[05:00] <TheCreationist> macogw: Calm down... I know that.  I'm trying to figure out why.
[05:00] <macogw> i have to install an old one and upgrade because it is IMPOSSIBLE to fresh install
[05:00] <robby> That and the Ubuntu Bible should answer any/all questions and then some
[05:00] <TheCreationist> macogw: Don't yell at the help.
[05:00] <PhilDick> I've never upgraded an ubuntu system, always re-installed.
[05:00] <macogw> i went over this for hours a few weeks ago and finally installed edgy and upgraded it
[05:00] <firebird611> NigelS: Ok Thanks. Should I paste it how it is now, or should I add the 1680x1050 resolution first. Also, what is the pastebin url, haven't used it for a while.
[05:00] <macogw> PhilDick: i was *trying* to fresh install but i CANT. i was forced to upgrade because it is the only way for the install to work
[05:01] <TheCreationist> macogw: Then you're obviously doing something wrong.  Yelling at us won't help you solve it.
[05:01] <_C_> =(
[05:01] <NigelS> firebird611: http://pastebin.com/ - just show what you have
[05:01] <macogw> ive installed ubuntu about 20 times just fine
[05:01] <macogw> the computer works fine with it if i use dapper or edgy to install
[05:01] <firebird611> NigelS: Ok, will do that. Thank You
[05:01] <macogw> ubiquity wont do jack s*** but segfault
[05:01] <TheCreationist> Good grief... and to think I used to be one of these pricks that came in here a bitched at everyone that was trying to help. lol guess I deserve it ;)
[05:01] <the_padawan> is there a command to restart the timidity server?
[05:01] <macogw> hah
[05:01] -sdfg:#ubuntu- You have a new memo from sdfg.
[05:01] -sdfg:#ubuntu- Type /server READ 2 to read it.
[05:02] <PhilDick> laf
[05:02] <PurpZeY> Anyone else just get hit with that?
[05:02] <NigelS> yeah
[05:02] <TheCreationist> PurpZeY: Hit with what?  A trout?  Not in years ;)
[05:02] <PhilDick> Does anyone on now use a USB gamepad with Ubuntu?
[05:02] <firebird611> NigelS: http://pastebin.com/942957
[05:02] <PurpZeY> TheCreationist: I got a "new memo" from the server?
[05:02] <crimsun> heh.
[05:02] <nalioth> PurpZeY: no, it's a trap.
[05:02] <SKaTEBoY-99> hi all fri
[05:02] <macogw> the alternate cd and the live cd both fail miserably on my computer
[05:02] <TheCreationist> PurpZeY: Ah.  Yeah, I got that too.  But I'm not stupid enough to follow directions ;)
[05:03] <PurpZeY> nalioth: How did I know...=)
[05:03] <nalioth> PurpZeY: your nose knows
[05:03] <crimsun> /server ANYTHING simply unconditionally changes the current server.
[05:03] <_C_> Please guys, I really need to fix my usplash
[05:03] <PhilDick> macogw, I don't understand how you're forced into an upgrade, can't you install it on a new partition?
[05:03] <macogw> i asked on the ubiquity channel if anybody else had reported that all it can do is segfault, and they said no, run it with debugging, so thats what i did this time
[05:03] <orbisvicis> anyone know of an alternative to mail-server ?
[05:03] <macogw> PhilDick: no.  ubiquity (gui installer) segfaults 100% of the time.  the alternate cd dies at installing software (before it gets to grub)
[05:04] <TheCreationist> macogw: If NO ONE else has had your problem, then you're missing something.  Maybe some obscure hardware that Ubuntu doesn't fully support in Feisty?
[05:04] <robby> lol  wallops
[05:04] <macogw> TheCreationist: it worked perfectly in edgy.  it's intel graphics, intel chipset, intel wireless
[05:04] <macogw> TheCreationist: its the most supported computer ever
[05:04] <PhilDick> macogw, I certainly don't envy you, but I have no idea what's causing your problem.
[05:04] <macogw> TheCreationist: and once feisty's on it via upgrade, its fine
[05:04] <TheCreationist> macogw: I had a hell of a time installing Feisty on my friends computer.... basically the same problem - random errors halfway through copying.  I ended up just unplugging the IDE cable from the CD drive and plugging it back in.... worked flawlessly after that.  Go figure.
[05:05] <n2diy> macogw: what are you trying to run now, if it isn't Edgy?
[05:05] <NigelS> firebird611: what's your monitor model?
[05:05] <macogw> TheCreationist: right now i'm doing it on an external hard drive
[05:05] <TheCreationist> macogw: Now, that may sound like a stupid suggestion, but it's worth a shot, I guess.  I have no other advice for you, unfortunately.
[05:05] <PhilDick> Last try, nobody on uses a USB gamepad with Ubuntu?
[05:05] <osxdude|palmTX> You know what's weird? I have similar ethernet adapter cards on both my laptop and desktop. Only my desktop shows the adapter...
[05:06] <TheCreationist> PhilDick: I don't know of any Linux games that I'd want to use my gamepad for.... sorry ;)
[05:06] <macogw> n2diy: what? im trying to run the feisty installer with debugging as instructed by the ubiquity channel, but once it segfaults, it destroys the session so badly that i cant actually retrieve the logs to file the bug
[05:06] <mark____> i'm having a problem with fglrx.. If i have firefox running and attempt to scroll the page down nothing happens but if I resize the window or right click away the page data updates.
[05:06] <IndyGunFreak> macogw: supposedly there's pretty severe speed issues installing feisty that way
[05:06] <PhilDick> TheCreationist: I'm playing with emulation...
[05:06] <SKaTEBoY-99> i want to know any special script or clone script,how can i get?plz help
[05:06] <firebird611> NigelS: Westinghouse LCM-22w2
[05:06] <nixnoob> hey anyone know why i would have problems getting with dhcp on a wireless network?
[05:06] <TheCreationist> PhilDick: Ah.  Dosbox is fricken sweet, isn't it? ;)  Or are you talking more like console emulation?
[05:06] <Nutubuntu> I also had errors during my Feisty install; ended up running the Minimal install, which worked fine...
[05:06] <osxdude|palmTX> I'm not on my lunix comp.
[05:06] <n2diy> macogw: ok, I thought you might have been playing with Gutsy, GL.
[05:07] <robby> wallops
[05:07] <robby> thats funny
[05:07] <shiester_miester> lol u guys know that magnus is still ranting
[05:07] <TheCreationist> macogw: Nutubuntu brings up a decent point.  Have you tried running "Install a text based" system from the Alternate CD?  Again, worth a shot.
[05:07] <PhilDick> TheCreationist: NES console for the moment... I can't get it to recognize holding a button down, it just gives a short keypress.
[05:07] <shiester_miester> that guy who got kicked before
[05:07] <shiester_miester> he started whinging in a privmsg to me
[05:07] <shiester_miester> so im just going along with it
[05:07] <n2diy> shiester_miester: where?
[05:07] <Hobbsee> shiester_miester: and me, and another guy.  just use /ignore
[05:07] <nixnoob> dhclient goes on until it gets no offers and then tries an old lease and it works despite the address being out of the correct range
[05:07] <shiester_miester> really?
[05:07] <shiester_miester> heheh
[05:07] <TheCreationist> PhilDick: Sorry, I can't help you... but good luck.  I'm definitely a fan of older console emulation myself ;)
[05:07] <macogw> TheCreationist: that works but then if i "sudo apt-cdrom add" and try to install ubuntu-desktop it says there's a million unresolved dependencies
[05:07] <shiester_miester> hes quite amusing ;)
[05:08] <shiester_miester> he was talking to you too?
[05:08] <klobster> what are the gnome libs I need for program compatability with KDE?
[05:08] <tritium> shiester_miester: and to me
[05:08] <Hobbsee> shiester_miester: yeah.  although that was another channel, so he got /kb'd there too
[05:08] <shiester_miester> hahah
[05:08] <shiester_miester> whats the trying to do?
[05:08] <robby> lol... wallop them
[05:08] <TheCreationist> macogw: Do you not have internet access in the text install?
[05:08] <klobster> oops s/libs/packages/
[05:08] <shiester_miester> *whats he trying to do
[05:08] <TheCreationist> macogw: Because if you do, don't use the CD rom for it.
[05:08] <awerner32> is there a linux equivalent to angry ip
[05:08] <fisherhome> can linux server be set up as a domain controller so windows xp machines can log into the domain in a lan environment?
[05:08] <fisherhome> ubuntu server i mean
[05:09] <n2diy> fisherhome: sure, Linux runs the internet after all.
[05:10] <fisherhome> right but i'm designing a new network for my soon-to-be home and i'm considering using an ubuntu server but i'd like it to seem like machines are logging into a windows server 2003 domain.. with shared folders and what not
[05:10] <chipbuddy> .
[05:10] <PhilDick> quit
[05:10] <fisherhome> i'm probably asking about the very basics
[05:10] <fisherhome> lol
[05:11] <nixn00b> sorry i got disconnected did anyone try to answer my question?
[05:11] <n2diy> fisherhome: ditch windows! :)
[05:11] <robby> as trivial as it is, I love the cmd that dloads code from a site
[05:11] <fisherhome> i am so ready to, but i need to keep a couple boxes alive.. i'm an ms tech so i need some for remote diag, and one for my audio studio
[05:11] <fisherhome> i'm building an ubuntu mythbox right now
[05:12] <wit_273> I have a Toshiba Tecra A8 and the sound will not work in Feisty through the built in speakers external speakers work fine though.  Does anyone have any suggestions?
[05:12] <chipbuddy> so i just got two monitors set up by modifying xorg.conf, but beryl doesn't want to turn on now... how do i fix that
[05:12] <tay> NigelS: Still here? I need some more guidance, I could not understand how to configure the xorg config file, I am way new to Linux...
[05:13] <TheCreationist> Totally off-topic, but I have to say that I absolutely LOVE Compiz Fusion!  And to me it's more stable that Compiz or Beryl ever were alone....
[05:13] <iZen> can i only save my xorg.conf file while logged in as root?
[05:13] <robby> wallop: the act of wallop; walloping.
[05:13] -McCoys:#ubuntu- You have a new memo from McCoys.
[05:13] -McCoys:#ubuntu- Type /server READ LAST to read it.
[05:14] <fisherhome> i love compiz fusion too
[05:14] <Nutubuntu> Rhythmbox in feisty seems to have marked quite a fewl mp3s, which I know for certain *used* to play in Dapper, as unplayable because it lacks the proper codec ... but it plays other mp3s. How can I fix this?
[05:14] <nixn00b> does anyone know why i cant get an ip via dhcp on my wireless card?
[05:15] <fisherhome> i'm an idiot.  McCoys got me lol
[05:15] <TheCreationist> fishbuntu: Too bad Microsoft's Aero is so much better and more innovative, right? ;P
[05:15] <tay> NigelS: Still here? I need some more guidance, I could not understand how to configure the xorg config file, I am way new to Linux...
[05:15] <banlieue> good afternoon everyone
[05:16] <Superscrew> hi
[05:16] <kismet> besterd :/
[05:16] <fisherhome> TheCreationist: yeh sure.. i really dispise Vista.. i like XP even with its bugs but Vista is just plain stomach-turning
[05:16] <Nutubuntu> TheCreationist, did / do you need a high end video card to get decent performance out of Compiz Fusion?
[05:16] <yagami_> why is the menubar in opera all screwed up- it looks like as if its using motif style. i already tried opera --style default
[05:16] <robby> U lie Gypsy
[05:17] <tay> I install Nvidia drivers and when I restarted It says "Cannot display this video mode"... I need to edit my config file from a command prompt apparently, anyone able to help me do this?
[05:17] <TheCreationist> Nutubuntu: My computer has an nVidia Geforce 6600.... however, my girlfriend's computer only has onboard intel video.  Both run well.
[05:17] <NigelS> firebird611: I'm reading into it to confirm but I think it's not a problem with how you were doing the xorg.conf but rather the linux nvidia driver
[05:17] <TheCreationist> tay: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:17] <Nutubuntu> :) t/y TheCreationist ... sounds as if my onboard nvidia 6150 might be up to the task
[05:17] <NigelS> firebird611: did you get your driver from the repos? I have a feeling that the latest driver from the nvidia site will work
[05:18] <TheCreationist> Nutubuntu: I don't see why not.  You'd at least be able to get some of the plugins running well enough.
[05:18] <tay> TheCreationist: Is that hard to use? I kinda suck at all this whack command line stuff..
[05:18] <banlieue> hey, you people are surely a lot better with ubuntu (gnome) than I am, so.. could anyone tell me how I could make gnome open 'window manager' on press of ctrl+alt+del
[05:18] <NigelS> tay: the relevant section is the one about the screen - you need to add the resolutions you want to the section with the default depth alogn the same style that you see there i.e. "XxY"
[05:18] <firebird611> NigelS: Ok, thanks for checking it out for me. I have tried the nvidia.com drivers to no avail. I just got done earlier tonight removing those and going back to the one in the repos.
[05:18] <robby> So sad, 4 weeks ago this time I was at Bonnaroo.  #OFF TOPIC
[05:18] <fisherhome> command line aint wack!  its dope for real
[05:18] <TheCreationist> tay: Not really.  It's a little more complicated than GUI versions, but you should be okay.  Just remember that if you don't know what a setting is, set it to the recommended or default setting.
[05:19] <Nutubuntu> banlieue,  System > Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts (I *think*) would do ya
[05:19] <gcarrillo> hi all
[05:19] <tay> NigelS: I don't even know how to navigate to the proper section of the xorf config file.... or w/.e it is
[05:19] <gcarrillo> does anybody know how to disable desktop effects from the command line?
[05:19] <banlieue> Nutubuntu: yea, but it's not available in the list
[05:19] <NigelS> tay: well you just press page down etc, you're using nano yes?
[05:19] <TheCreationist> fisherhome: As a guy that started using computers with MSDOS 3, I'm comfortable with the CLI... but keep in mind that most computer users today don't use the keyboard for anything other than typing URLs, email and chats ;)
[05:19] <gcarrillo> its hanging my sys
[05:19] <banlieue> is there any way of adding custom commands to the keyboard shortcuts menu?
[05:19] <tay> NigelS: Yes
[05:20] <banlieue> so, to add an universal keyboard shortcut to certain commands..
[05:20] <user1_> TheCreationist, you forgot the chatting
[05:20] <tay> NigelS: just got a blank screen, can get to help menu, didn't seem to help much
[05:20] <gcarrillo> i love to chat
[05:20] <gcarrillo> :P
[05:20] <NigelS> tay: then yeah, commands are access as indicated at the bottom of the screen using CTRL and then the letter
[05:21] <tay> but which command do i use?
[05:21] <user1_> some fine photoshop skills use alot of keyboard too
[05:21] <TheCreationist> user1_: Chats... I said that
[05:21] <tay> NigelS: Can't find anything relevent to video modes...
[05:22] <nickrud> banlieue, you mean like putting gnome-terminal on clt-alt-t?
[05:22] <gcarrillo> damn, this is surprisingly nasty
[05:23] <banlieue> nickrud: for example, but gnome-terminal would be a bad example as it's available in the 'keyboard shortcuts' menu. I'm hoping to add a custom command ('knotes' for example) to a certain key combination
[05:24] <RobDude> Hi all
[05:24] <gcarrillo> hey rob
[05:24] <nickrud> banlieue, open gconf-editor, and navigate to apps/metacity , there's two panels: keybinding_commands and global_keybindings. You can add custom ones there
[05:24] <J^u^d^e^> can anyone give me help on an eMovix disk
[05:24] <banlieue> ah, brilliant
[05:24] <banlieue> that's what I was hoping to hear, thanks nickrud
[05:24] <nickrud> banlieue, if you need more than 12, just add new keys in each
[05:24] <robby> MMMM  bannana cream pie
[05:24] <J^u^d^e^> it does not boot on my os
[05:24] <tay> TheCreationist: Any ideo how to change video mode in nano?
[05:25] <banlieue> should've thought of gconf-editor *blush*
[05:25] <RobDude> This isn't an 'Ubuntu' question specifically - but I thought you guys could help me out.  I've been told that different distros support different hardware.  What exactly does that mean?  Is it just that the native linux drivers are bundled with some distros and not others - but if you have the drivers, it will run on any 'Linux' distro?  Or are the distros fundementally different?
[05:26] <TheCreationist> tay: I never use nano
[05:27] <tay> TheCreationist: oh, well ill brb trying your suggestion
[05:27] <hende> hey i have a question can someone help me with windows effects such as the fire when you hit the x
[05:27] <robby> Awsome KSnapshot saves to jpg
[05:28] <banlieue> oh, so that's what that [X]  does
[05:28] <hende> does anyone know
[05:28] <robby> ?
[05:29] <robby> [x] 
[05:29] <hende> windows effects
[05:30] <_C_> I am trying to install beryl 3.0 and it says libc6 is not satifyed yet it is installed...
[05:30] <RobDude> Alright - another question - will Ubuntu 7.04 have a better chance of getting my wireless usb adapter to work than 6.1 ?
[05:30] <robby> Desktop Effects?
[05:31] <hende> ya but my ex brother in law when he hits the x to close windows they burn away
[05:31] <PurpZeY> That's beryl
[05:31] <Nutubuntu> I had an ex brother in law like that once ... ;)
[05:31] <robby> oh you got beryl
[05:31] <osxdude|palmTX> hende: thas beryl...
[05:31] <hende> what if i already got gl desktop
[05:31] <wit_273> Has anyone ran into problems where sound would work with external speakers but not built in speakers on a laptop?
[05:31] <sapu> and where sound device is recognized but doesn't work?
[05:31] <osxdude|palmTX> i like b e r y l !
[05:32] <J^u^d^e^> can anyone give me help on an eMovix disk
[05:32] <J^u^d^e^> it does not boot on my os
[05:34] <robby> God im bored
[05:34] <banlieue> please do forgive me, because of the lack of nicklist and my bad memory I can't remember who it was who pointed me towards gconf-editor but thanks a lot again
[05:34] <Truma1> robby:  Just wait a bit and someone'll come in and ask a question
[05:34] <banlieue> oh, i'll ask another question if you insist! :P
[05:35] <banlieue> i'm (also) trying to open a program on a 'timer'
[05:35] <banlieue> 2 minutes after logging in, program_x should open
[05:35] <banlieue> not a clue where or how to even start
[05:35] <TheCreationist> banlieue: What is the program?
[05:35] <banlieue> i'm assuming that's too specific to cron
[05:35] <robby> at command
[05:35] <banlieue> knotes, it doesn't display the tray icon properly when opened too fast
[05:35] <bjupton1> can I ask an install question here?
[05:35] <banlieue> as it's a KDE program running on Gnome, i'm guessing
[05:36] <TheCreationist> !ask | bjupton1
[05:36] <ubotu> bjupton1: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:36] <NigelS> firebird611: http://pastebin.com/942968 <-- try this perhaps
[05:36] <Xiao> I have a Logitech USB keyboard that's pretty new
[05:36] <robby> u try the at cmd in terminal
[05:36] <Xiao> and I get status -32 with it
[05:36] <firebird611> NigelS: Ok. Thank you so much for your help.
[05:37] <hende> alright i have beryl but it wont work
[05:37] <hende> i change the setting but it doesnt work
[05:37] <banlieue> TheCreationist: knotes
[05:37] <Xiao> Googling "status -32" does not give me very many results.
[05:38] <bjupton1> just making sure I was in the right channel...I successfully installed Xubuntu on my new laptop.  However, wanted to give Ubuntu a try. It is crawling on the install.  It got to 44% quickly, but it has taken an eternity to get to 46%.  was not sure if this was normal, did not experience with Xubuntu
[05:38] <Truma1> hende:  You try to run it but it just switches back to the default manager?
[05:38] <paganjew> has anyone use sqlite for personal database like address book, or a library
[05:38] <Xiao> Any ideas on "status -32" issues?
[05:38] <Xiao> It happens with both my USB mouse and keyboard.
[05:38] <bjupton1> thhis is both with Feisty
[05:38] <hende> i dont know like i go change the settings to burn and then i hit the x and they dont burn
[05:38] <Nutubuntu> I'm having a bit of trouble with Rhythmbox. It won't play some mp3s (but plays others). Says it may not have the right decoder. How do I find which one(s) it needs?
[05:39] <Truma1> hende:  Do you know if it's actually switched into beryl?  Like if you click on the little red jewel at the top and select "Select Window Manager" or something like that, is Beryl dotted?
[05:39] <robby> i dont think the kb or mouse would cause that type of issue with google unless its not putting what you typed in correctly
[05:39] <Xiao> It happens at boot.
[05:39] <Xiao> Regarding hid-core.c
[05:39] <hende> yes truma
[05:39] <Xiao> And I get hundreds of these messages constantly stating "Unable to reset device, status -32"
[05:40] <Nutubuntu> bjupton1,  that sounds familiar ... I think I ended up using the Alternate Install CD or the Minimal Install CD instead ... not sure but that's what I think I remember
[05:40] <Xiao> I know it's my keyboard and mouse because when they are disconnected all goes fine.
[05:40] <makuseru> hi, i have a HP DVD Writer, and it burns CDs fine, and it reads DVDs fine, but  when ever i try to burn a DVD it wont do it, it just gives me errors. Ive tried K3B, Nero For Linux, and a few other programs, what could be causing this?
[05:40] <ans_> My mic was working but the volume was really low, I fiddled with some settings and now it doesn't work at all. Is there a way to reset the alsa driver settings back to a default so that I can start with a clean slate?
[05:40] <TheCreationist> Nutubuntu: Most MP3 files aren't encoded.  Is there a common relationship between the ones it won't play (eg: all purchased through Napster)?
[05:40] <Nutubuntu> TheCreationist,  no relatinosh
[05:40] <Truma1> hende:  so you're in the beryl-manager config them, setting it to burn up the windows when you close or whatever, and it doesn't want to burn?
[05:40] <hende> truma???
[05:40] <Nutubuntu> TheCreationist,  no relationship at all ... what's more, they all were okay, back in Dapper ... I'm not clear what could be different, but possibly gstreamer-plugins ... ?
[05:41] <skyfalcon866> does ext3 fragment
[05:41] <TheCreationist> Nutubuntu: Did you follow this tutorial?
[05:41] <UbuntuServerUser> Quick question, how do i shutdown computer so that next time I can start it using WOL?
[05:41] <TheCreationist> !restricted | Nutubuntu
[05:41] <ubotu> Nutubuntu: 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
[05:41] <hende> i set it close beryl settings windown and i twst it and it doesnt work
[05:41] <osxdude|palmTX> Nutubntu: open them in "nano" or "gedit"
[05:41] <robby> xiao  what OS??
[05:41] <Xiao> Kubuntu
[05:41] <Nutubuntu> Ah! ... no, but I will ... : )
[05:41] <Xiao> But I'm guessing this is a kernel issue.
[05:41] <UbuntuServerUser> BTW using CLI
[05:41] <Truma1> hende:  hold on a second
[05:41] <Nutubuntu> osxdude|palmTX,  open the mp3s in a text editor?
[05:41] <Xiao> Feisty too
[05:42] <banlieue> oh, i'm stupid
[05:42] <Madpilot> skyfalcon866, not really. and it fixes itself - that's what the "fsck" is every 25-30 boots
[05:42] <RobDude> Which version of Ubuntu is Feisty?
[05:42] <osxdude|palmTX> Nutubuntu: Yes.
[05:42] <banlieue> i could just run a cron on start-up of course
[05:42] <Xiao> Maybe my keyboard is too new and needs a fix in hid-core.c
[05:42] <andy> RobDude: 7.0.4
[05:42] <RobDude> andy:  Thank you
[05:42] <Xiao> 7.04*
[05:42] <TheCreationist> osxdude|palmTX: Why on Earth should he do that?
[05:42] <skyfalcon866> i got 8% fragmentation though
[05:42] <ans_> anyone? How do I reset the alsa sound drive settings back to default values?
[05:42] <UbuntuServerUser> Quick question, how do i shutdown computer so that next time I can start it using WOL via CLI I'm in ubuntu server on SSH
[05:42] <gerro> skyfalcon866: what that mean?
[05:42] <Xiao> do you have jackd running, ans_
[05:42] <Xiao> ?
[05:42] <osxdude|palmTX> TheCreationist: To compare them, I guess.
[05:42] <RobDude> So hey - do any of you guys go to Linux user groups?  There is one in my area, I'm thinking of attending.  Anyone have any idea as to how 'newbie' friendly they typically are?
[05:42] <bjupton1> nutubuntu: thanks, I'll try that perhaps
[05:43] <Xiao> that would always kill ALSA for me, so I kill jackd and then everything works
[05:43] <ans_> Xiao, not sure, how would I check? ps?
[05:43] <gerro> UbuntuServerUser: set WOL in the bios?
[05:43] <Truma1> hende:  quit out of beryl-manager, open a terminal and run beryl-manager from there, see if it gives you any errors.. then tell it to switch to the beryl window manager and check again
[05:43] <skyfalcon866> 8% of my files are fragmented
[05:43] <Xiao> Ctrl-Esc
[05:43] <hende> while truma is lookin for something for me how do i check what session im in
[05:43] <Xiao> see if jackd is on the list
[05:43] <Nutubuntu> osxdude|palmTX,  it would spoil the suspense if I told how they ended? (Hint, it was not the butler after all )
[05:43] <Xiao> and you might have to sudo killall
[05:43] <andy> what's the startup script for all users, I want to have a program start when anyone logs in
[05:43] <Xiao> jackd
[05:43] <gerro> skyfalcon866: then run fdisk
[05:43] <hende> no idea how to do any of that truma
[05:43] <bjupton1> how difficult would it be to add Gnome to Xubuntu? would that be less painful, since I know that Xubuntu installs nicely
[05:43] <firebird611> NigelS: Unfortunately, that did not solve the problem. I still do not have 1680x1050 as an option.
[05:43] <osxdude|palmTX> * TaJMoX waits for it Nutubuntu: Find all the encoders and install 'em.
[05:43] <slavik> andy: why not start it with the system?
[05:43] <UbuntuServerUser> gerro Yes sir, just wondering how to shut it down now so I can restart it via WOL but the shutdown now command is confusing me....-H  locks system IDK just want clean shutdown with WOL support
[05:44] <osxdude|palmTX> oops
[05:44] <Truma1> hende:  K, go to applications>accessories>terminal
[05:44] <makuseru> hi, i have a HP DVD Writer, and it burns CDs fine, and it reads DVDs fine, but  when ever i try to burn a DVD it wont do it, it just gives me errors. Ive tried K3B, Nero For Linux, and a few other programs, what could be causing this?
[05:44] <gRaCiOsO> i have a problem with my nvidia card driver i install it and it works but when i reboot the pc i have to install the driver again couse it doesnt work after reboot
[05:44] <andy> slavik: which file is that?
[05:44] <hende> k
[05:44] <slavik> UbuntuServerUser: shutdown -p now
[05:44] <mongolai> bjupton1, not too hard. long d/l though.
[05:44] <osxdude|palmTX> Nutubuntu: Find all the encoders and install 'em.
[05:44] <Truma1> hende:  actually, first, right-click on the little beryl-jewel and select "quit"
[05:44] <hende> i did
[05:44] <slavik> andy: checkout the /etc/rc2.d/ directory :)
[05:44] <Anubis> is there usb stick wireless support in ubuntu?
[05:44] <Nutubuntu> t/y TheCreationist & osxdude|palmTX ... /me goes to read and learn :)
[05:44] <slavik> -p powers off
[05:44] <UbuntuServerUser> slavik
[05:44] <mongolai> bjupton1, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[05:44] <Truma1> hende:  k, now in the white terminal window that's open, type "beryl-manager"
[05:44] <andy> slavik, thanks
[05:44] <UbuntuServerUser> slavik that doesn't work, says p is wrong
[05:45] <banlieue> alright, my question shifted now... how do i make crontab perform a command only once after 2 minutes?
[05:45] <slavik> eh?
[05:45] <UbuntuServerUser> slavik "invalid option: -p"
[05:45] <NigelS> firebird611: so it just boots up into 1280x1024? Try using the latest nvidia drivers perhaps - other users have reported success with that monitor so it must be possible
[05:45] <ans_> Xiao, is that part of the libasound2-plugins package?
[05:45] <slavik> ahh, capital P :P
[05:45] <klobster> what is the apt-get suffix to reinstall a prog?
[05:45] <UbuntuServerUser> Thanks ;)
[05:45] <Frogzoo> !hardware | Anubis
[05:45] <ubotu> Anubis: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[05:45] <hende> cant execute
[05:45] <bjupton1> mongolai: from my existing xubuntu install?
[05:45] <TheCreationist> klobster: You need to remove first then install.
[05:45] <hende> its critical
[05:45] <osxdude|palmTX> hende: sudo apt-get instal beryl-manager
[05:45] <Xiao> I have a problem with my USB and keyboard, regarding "status -32"; hundreds of these messages show up at boot making it impossible to read anything or use the shell; I know it's the keyboard and mouse, I tried them separately and still got the errors. Is it a kernel issue? Is my hardware too new?
[05:45] <`Nick> is their a liveCD with wireless cards enabled?
[05:45] <Truma1> hende:  Did you cut the quotes off?
[05:46] <TheCreationist> klobster: If you want a completely fresh install, do this :  sudo apt-get autoremove --purge [package]  && apt-get install [package] 
[05:46] <PurpZeY> `Nick: Yes. It is possible depending on your setup.
[05:46] <mongolai> bjupton1, yes. Then logout, and in the login screen (XDM?) select GNOME for the new session
[05:46] <`Nick> PurpZeY: you know of any with wireless enabled?
[05:46] <firebird611> NigelS: yes, it boots to 1280x1024. Thanks for all of your help. I can give the latest drivers a try. Do you mean nvidia.com or install the latest that is in Synaptic?
[05:46] <slavik> any ideas about getting sound working in ET? I can use aoss, but sound is choppy ...
[05:46] <hende> yeah
[05:46] <hende> i typed it how do you copy and paste with linux
[05:46] <klobster> I don't think I need a fresh install, I just think it missed a file or two, and I want to force a reinstall
[05:47] <Truma1> hende:  middle-click
[05:47] <shiester_miester> :O Hobbsee did you just UNban someone?
[05:47] <NigelS> firebird611: the latest in the repos are pretty out of date - I'd go for the nvidia ones
[05:47] <Xiao> ans_, jackd is part of the jack package I believe
[05:47] <Truma1> hende:  just type beryl-manager into the terminal
[05:47] <hende> im using a touch pad
[05:47] <Hobbsee> shiester_miester: yes
[05:47] <UbuntuServerUser> slavik hmm, WOL doesn't work after I use shutdown -P now :(
[05:47] <PurpZeY> `Nick: No, no, the LiveCD is Wireless enabled. But, if your card wouldn't work out of the box, then it might need further configuration which wouldn't be worth doing (or impossible) on a liveCD.
[05:47] <hende> i did
[05:47] <shiester_miester> incredible... O_O
[05:47] <sdouble> hey guys, I installed Skencil through apt-get and it doesn't load  Anyone else see this problem?
[05:47] <taylor> TheCreationist: Thanks for the help, I'm in ubuntu, and I got grpahics running smooth :)
[05:47] <osxdude|palmTX> hende Did you try --sudo apt-get install beryl-manager-- (minus da dashes)?
[05:47] <`Nick> PurpZeY: it works, but some livecds dont enable it
[05:47] <TheCreationist> klobster: Still, that would be a good command to run.  Keep in mind, though, that the "--purge" part removes any settings you used to have.
[05:47] <slavik> UbuntuServerUser: is WOL enabled in BIOS?
[05:47] <sivik> anyone here have expirence using alti-console in ubuntu/linux
[05:47] <taylor> NigelS: Thanks for the help, I'm in ubuntu, and I got grpahics running smooth :)
[05:47] <UbuntuServerUser> slavik yes
[05:47] <TheCreationist> taylor: I don't remember helping you, but you're welcome :P
[05:47] <firebird611> NigelS: One thing I notice in the Screen Resolution Preferences it is at 50 Hz. Shouldn't it be 60 Hz. Also, should I uninstall the ones in Synaptic first?
[05:47] <PurpZeY> `Nick: There is only one Fiesty Ubuntu LiveCD
[05:48] <ans_> Xiao, I'm looking in the synaptic package manager and I don't see it. I'm on feisty. If I had that what would it help with?
[05:48] <NigelS> firebird611: I made a typo! one sec
[05:48] <slavik> UbuntuServerUser: I dunno what to say (I've never used WOL)
[05:48] <`Nick> PurpZeY: ubuntu=not working with this lappy
[05:48] <hende> its not working like that
[05:48] <PurpZeY> `Nick: Well, there is server and desktop, but that's the only 2.
[05:48] <slavik> when you send the WOL signal, do your broadcast it?
[05:48] <firebird611> NigelS: Ok.
[05:48] <PurpZeY> `Nick: What card/chipset?
[05:48] <andy> is anyone having trouble with firefox freezing after playing a flash video?
[05:48] <taylor> TheCreationist: you told me sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg.... that worked :)
[05:48] <`Nick> PurpZeY: to be honest i have nooo idea
[05:48] <Xiao> jackd goes with anything that uses the Jack audio, most programs can
[05:48] <`Nick> PurpZeY: not my lappy =p
[05:48] <Truma1> hende:  What happens when you type what osxdude|palmTX said?
[05:48] <TheCreationist> taylor: Ah, yes.  Well good... glad I could help.
[05:48] <Xiao> but just try "sudo killall jackd" in a terminal
[05:48] <niuq> hi
[05:48] <Xiao> see what it says then
[05:48] <UbuntuServerUser> slavik I'm using DD-WRT firmware to try the WOL, IDK what you mean by broadcast it, it says "netbroadcast 192.168.1.255"
[05:48] <NigelS> firebird611: http://pastebin.com/942969
[05:49] <NigelS> taylor: cool :)
[05:49] <osxdude|palmTX> andy: Today my firefox froze on a tab close while a flash movie was up
[05:49] <niuq> how can i check if my video card is installed?
[05:49] <firebird611> NigelS: OK
[05:49] <PurpZeY> `Nick: Is your goal to see if you can get it to work on the LiveCD so that, you can install knowing the hardware works?
[05:49] <jtmoulia> osxdude|palmTX: yeah... my firefox actually does that a lot
[05:49] <`Nick> hm
[05:49] <ans_> Xiao, "no process killed" I don't have it
[05:49] <osxdude|palmTX> it was just text too
[05:49] <`Nick> PurpZeY: more liek the hd is shot and i need to get online =p
[05:49] <PurpZeY> `Nick: I mean, what are you trying to do?
[05:49] <NigelS> taylor: in future that kind of error shouldn't happen - xorg is almost able to get settings right without being told them
[05:49] <slavik> UbuntuServerUser: so it is sending to a broadcast address (meaning it will be sent to every port)
[05:49] <J^u^d^e^> Question Why does my Xchat crash on startup???
[05:49] <andy> osxdude|palmTX: have you found a fix
[05:49] <TheCreationist> niuq: You can always try "glxinfo" in a console and see if it displays the proper info at the top.
[05:49] <NigelS> andy: yeah I get that - I don't think there's a fix yet - it's the buggy flash player
[05:49] <Xiao> ans_, k that's not the problem
[05:49] <osxdude|palmTX> andy: I think there was an update.
[05:49] <PurpZeY> `Nick: And wired is unavailable ?
[05:50] <UbuntuServerUser> slavik uh, I'm pretty sure its using mac address
[05:50] <hende> i got it opened thru the the terminal
[05:50] <UbuntuServerUser> slavik but the lights on the network card aren't lit
[05:50] <`Nick> PurpZeY: wired is 2 feet from me and i'm in my basement - i need it upstairs in my bedroom by all the external hardware
[05:50] <slavik> UbuntuServerUser: now that is something ... try to power it up and power down during post
[05:50] <Truma1> hende:  K, with the terminal still open, tell it to switch to beryl by right clicking the jewel, "Select Window Manager" and then choose Beryl
[05:50] <PurpZeY> `Nick: So, why don't you plug in the laptop and then you need not worry about wifi?
[05:50] <ans_> Xiao, I fiddled with various settings in the Sound Preference panel, as well Volume Control. I'd like to just bring it back to what it was when Feisty was installed. Possible?
[05:51] <Mirdan> connecting to a #channel on another server how do i go about doing that?
[05:51] <`Nick> PurpZeY: because like i just said - i need it UPSTAIRS by the external hardware for it, but the wired connection is DOWNSTAIRS
[05:51] <_C_> What's the best media player that has a visualizer in a deb package?
[05:51] <mongolai> ans_, have you run alsamixer
[05:51] <|-|3d> Sorry to be a bother, I was hoping to get a little help.
[05:51] <sahib> hello, i need help with ubuntu
[05:51] <osxdude|palmTX> Nick: move the router upstairs :P
[05:51] <slavik> Mirdan: did you connect to the server?
[05:51] <hende> ok done
[05:51] <frost_> I'm really new to linux and I'm trying to get the functionality I had with Windows with my new linux install
[05:51] <bjupton1> mongolai: thanks, I will give that a try.  can't take longer than this is taking!
[05:51] <Mirdan> thats really my question how to connect to server
[05:51] <ans_> mongolai, yeah, but I'm not sure what to look for.
[05:51] <Truma1> hende:  Did it give you any output int he terminal window?
[05:51] <UbuntuServerUser> slavik HMM interesting, the lights are still off after power on/power off
[05:51] <Carnage\> _C_: amaroK
[05:51] <slavik> Mirdan: then open the buddy list, press CTRL + C and pick proper network and type in channel name :)
[05:51] <hende> no
[05:51] <UbuntuServerUser> slavik using power button
[05:51] <firebird611> NigelS: I'm going to restart now and see if that fixes it. BRB and I'll let you know.
[05:52] <sahib> subtitles in a movie on ubuntu is very hard
[05:52] <riotkittie> frost_:  what kind of functionality is that?
[05:52] <`Nick> osxdude|palmTX: theirs no working cable connection anywhere near my bedroom
[05:52] <TheCreationist> Man, I've never tried this beer before, but not only am I insanely buzzed after 3, but I've got to pee for the 2nd time. :P  BRB
[05:52] <mongolai> bjupton1, yea, it's a long download!
[05:52] <mongolai> ans_,
[05:52] <PurpZeY> `Nick: If wireless doesn't work out of the box, you'd probably need to run an NDISWrapper type setup...Trying running the command iwconfig at a terminal
[05:52] <frost_> I want to stream to the xbox 360. I think I found a way of doing it with wmv files but I can't find a way to convert avi files easily to wmvs... I found programs that should do that but I don't know how to work them
[05:52] <_C_> Carnage: It has a tiny visualizer, I want a full screen one like itunes or windows media player.
[05:52] <Truma1> hende:  was "beryl" already selected, or did you move it from another one?
[05:52] <Xiao> VLC supports VobSubs.
[05:52] <osxdude|palmTX> anyone know how to make fsck work with ntfs-formatted drives?
[05:52] <Xiao> And SRT files.
[05:52] <slavik> UbuntuServerUser: that's why you aren't having WOL work, the card has no power to it at all (it should be drawing from the 5VSB line for WOL)
[05:52] <`Nick> PurpZeY: thanks, i'll try it
[05:52] <Dave_> hello all
[05:52] <|-|3d> Everytime I try to run XMMS...it opens fine, but if I click play...it causes GNOME to start locking up and if I try to run Amarok, it wont even finish loading.  Any ideas?
[05:52] <Xiao> osxdude|palmTX, there is ntfsfix
[05:52] <shiester_miester> for some reason whenever anyone says "fsck" i think they are swearing :/
[05:52] <sahib> hola alguien habla espaol
[05:52] <niuq> how can i make a network...
[05:52] <PurpZeY> `Nick: It's just a command to see if ubuntu recognizes your card...You'll have to let me know what it says
[05:52] <hende> i moved it the first time you asked me on the desktop taskbar and when i tried it in the terminal it was already on there

[05:52] <shiester_miester> hahhaha
[05:52] <UbuntuServerUser> slavik I could have sworn the lights did go on at some point, anyway, so how would I fix this?
[05:52] <Truma1> shiester_miester:  Read Little Gamers?
[05:53] <sahib> ja
[05:53] <shiester_miester> nope
[05:53] <`Nick> PurpZeY: i'm using debian right now cuz ubunu hates my monitor
[05:53] <sahib> ok
[05:53] <niuq> well i have two computeres and i'd like to access to the files of my second computer
[05:53] <Truma1> shiester_miester: They use it all of the time to curse.. I have that same problem
[05:53] <Xiao> So anyway, does "status -32" just mean there's no real support for my hardware in the kernel?
[05:53] <slavik> UbuntuServerUser: I have no clue :(, is it an ATX spec system?
[05:53] <sahib> someone can put subtitles in avi
[05:53] <ans_> mongolai, hmm under the [Capture]  view Mic does not show a bar, should it?
[05:53] <shiester_miester> how do you pronounce that :/  you cant
[05:53] <shiester_miester> like "fisk"?
[05:53] <mongolai> ans_, just a sec, lemme take a look...
[05:54] <Truma1> shiester_miester:  Ah, I guess so.. I dunno; it's a webcomic, so I guess they never had to deal with that obstacle
[05:54] <UbuntuServerUser> slavik yes....I have 3 network cards, 1 is wireless on the first pci, the othre two are the exact same card kingston something
[05:54] <PurpZeY> `Nick: I think it is going to be a hard task anyway, but, you'll definitely need the computer in front of you to work on it.
[05:54] <shiester_miester> yeah obviously, cos its all written
[05:54] <hende> truma did you get what i said
[05:54] <riotkittie> where in startup are the TTYs brought up? are they networking related?
[05:54] <osxdude|palmTX> it's fsck
[05:54] <`Nick> PurpZeY: the lappy is right here
[05:54] <Truma1> hende:  Nothing after "no output"
[05:54] <diesel_power> please a spanish channel???
[05:54] <mongolai> ans_, I'm sorry, but I forgot your original problem.
[05:54] <PurpZeY> !es | diesel_power
[05:54] <ubotu> diesel_power: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[05:54] <Truma1> hende:  Sorry, the text scrolls by so fast :\
[05:54] <riotkittie> !es > diesel_power
[05:55] <slavik> UbuntuServerUser: the regular network cards are they PCI?
[05:55] <hende> oh i changed it from the desktop when you first asked me. then i quit it oppened thru terminal and it was already selected....
[05:55] <slavik> or built in?
[05:55] <Nutubuntu> TheCreationist,  t/y again. I'm playing me some toonz even as I type these words :)
[05:55] <frost_> I tried vlc but it gives me weirdness in that the video goes solid black... so I looked further and learned that transcode and mencoder should be able to convert avi to wmv but I can't figure out how to work them
[05:55] <PurpZeY> `Nick: Ok, so, run the command iwconfig
[05:55] <UbuntuServerUser> slavik yes there in the 2nd and 3rd slot
[05:55] <robby> the only thing i can see about -32 error is due to the usb driver
[05:55] <|-|3d> Everytime I try to run XMMS...it opens fine, but if I click play...it causes GNOME to start locking up and if I try to run Amarok, it wont even finish loading.  Any ideas?
[05:55] <Truma1> hende:  Hmm, is the terminal still open?
[05:55] <Xiao> so my devices are unsupported?
[05:55] <TheCreationist> Nutubuntu: Glad to hear it.
[05:55] <Xiao> :/
[05:55] <orbisvicis> how can i add jack input to alsa ?
[05:55] <Nutubuntu> I'm glad to hear 'em myself :)
[05:55] <shiester_miester> |-|3d, rhythmbox?
[05:56] <|-|3d> Never heard of it.
[05:56] <osxdude|palmTX> Nutubuntu: Hey, Try Totem. You can find out the codecs there.
[05:56] <hende> did you get it that time truma
[05:56] <`Nick> PurpZeY: that isn't a command on debian apparently
[05:56] <Frogzoo> |-|3d: maybe try audacious
[05:56] <shiester_miester> |-|3d, use it :P
[05:56] <slavik> UbuntuServerUser: I think you need an extra cable for WOL (connect the card to the motherboard), since WOL is not handled over PCI
[05:56] <shiester_miester> i use rhythmbox, its great
[05:56] <homerj> totem-gstreamer > totem-xine
[05:56] <hende> truma will you go to ubuntu efects
[05:56] <|-|3d> XMMS worked fine about 2 hours ago.
[05:56] <al3xfur> can anyone help me undo an Ubuntu partition?
[05:56] <Truma1> hende:  Try switching to another window manager and then back to beryl, that should give some output int he terminal window
[05:56] <ans_> mongolai, my mic was working, but was really faint, I fiddled with the Sound prefs. and volume control settings and now it doesn't work at all. Ideally, I would like to return it to default values if possible so at least I know it would work again.
[05:56] <Mirdan> hmmm ok is there a basic command to connect to irc.urladdress and then to #channel?
[05:56] <PurpZeY> `Nick: I am not trying to be rude but, if you are running it on debian why not get support through debian?
[05:56] <Nutubuntu> osxdude|palmTX,  t/y - but I'm doing fine now with Rhythmbox
[05:56] <firebird611> NigelS: That did not correct the problem either.
[05:56] <Truma1> hende:  ubuntu effects?
[05:56] <UbuntuServerUser> slavik http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wake-on-LAN I'm looking, hold on letme open the box up and see
[05:56] <osxdude|palmTX> Nutubuntu: okay
[05:56] <Dave_> I tried to get WiveCVS installed on my Xubuntu installation but it gave me a weird error
[05:56] <Frogzoo> al3xfur: undo? just reformat it as whatever you like, or is the grub on it causing problems?
[05:56] <`Nick> PurpZeY: i'm askin everyone cuz i've been trying to get it working for the past 2 days
[05:57] <riotkittie> Mirdan:  /server irc.serverhere    and then on the next line /join #channel
[05:57] <Dave_> something like test error
[05:57] <al3xfur> like reformat what i want
[05:57] <firebird611> NigelS: It still boots to 1280x1024.
[05:57] <mongolai> ans_, OK. First off I'm using alsamixer from a terminal. Put the volume slider at about 30% and try again
[05:57] <slavik> UbuntuServerUser: that's the cable (the picture is a picture of connectors on it)
[05:57] <riotkittie> Mirdan: though it may differ, depending on your client. but, afaik, that should work across the board
[05:57] <al3xfur> because my Windows partition has little space on it left
[05:57] <PurpZeY> `Nick: Well, I certainly can't help you a debian problem. Maybe someone here can, but, notwithstanding the fact that Ubuntu is debian based, I don't think this is really the best place to get support for it.
[05:57] <Truma1> 
[05:57] <`Nick> PurpZeY: alright
[05:58] <TheCreationist> So, just curious.  Is there any way to move space from Partition #1 to Partition #3 on my HD?
[05:58] <|-|3d> MP3's play fine in Audacity
[05:58] <robby> www.linux-usb.org/devices.html
[05:58] <osxdude|palmTX> Nick: See if there is #debian on this server
[05:58] <Sputnike> Hey All, does anyone know of a piece of software that will allow me to format a hard drive that has Windows installed? I need to format it to NTFS
[05:58] <ans_> mongolai, volume slider for what? Master?
[05:58] <mongolai> ans_, mic
[05:58] <|-|3d> All I did before this XMMS problem was uninstall a couple games I don't play.
[05:58] <KikkomanChow> hi, i just installed ubuntu for the first time.. i need help readjusting my resolution.. its currently at 1024x768.. i cant increase it..
[05:59] <hende> ok i switched to compbiz
[05:59] <osxdude|palmTX> Sputnike: use the Windows installer
[05:59] <riotkittie> Sputnike: you can use gparted. or you can use a Win install CD
[05:59] <Sonicadvance1> Is there a shortcut to open Terminal?
[05:59] <UbuntuServerUser> slavik OK i opened it, I don't have those cables and there isn't any spot on the network cards to put it on
[05:59] <Truma1> hende:  Now go back to Beryl and see if it tells you that everything is "passed" in the terminal
[05:59] <slavik> maybe the cards don't support WOL ... check the manual
[05:59] <osxdude|palmTX> I just noticed that I always run the Root terminal
[05:59] <Sputnike> Yeah my Vista disk is messed up, it tried an install now it black screens constantly, not allowing me to install anything else, it dual booted with Ubuntu... Il give gparted a try
[05:59] <Sputnike> thanks
[05:59] <hende> how do i run the terminal again to see that
[05:59] <frost_> can someone please help me with converting avi files to wmv files?
[06:00] <Xiao> you're gonna need windows for that, frost_
[06:00] <mongolai> Sonicadvance1, you can drag and drop Applications\Accessories\Terminal to the quick launch bar
[06:00] <orbisvicis> !jack
[06:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about jack - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:00] <KikkomanChow> anyone? (how to increase resolution > than 1024)?
[06:00] <hende> i mean what do i type
[06:00] <osxdude|palmTX> frost_, I m sry, but no video converters for ubuntu
[06:00] <Truma1> kikkomanChow What graphics card do you have?
[06:00] <riotkittie> !res | KikkomanChow
[06:00] <ubotu> KikkomanChow: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[06:00] <Sputnike> KikkomanChow: Go to System, Preferences, Screen Resolution... it should allow you
[06:00] <NigelS> firebird611: that's annoying :( http://pastebin.com/942972 is the latest I thought about - but really it ought to have worked as far as I can see.  The file isn't the normal layout because you're run the nvidia settings tool.  If using that and the latest nvidia drivers doesn't work then I am not sure what is at fault.  Possibly that it's missing somethng ubuntu wants but I doubt it.  Give that a go but I have to sleep -  I seem to have forgotten to do so and it's
[06:00] <Sonicadvance1> well, it would be nice to have a keyboard shortcut
[06:01] <Truma1> hende:  you don't have to type anything in the terminal if it's still open, just switch back to beryl
[06:01] <osxdude|palmTX> frost_: U can use Windows Media Encoder.
[06:01] <KikkomanChow> Truma1 i think its some intel onboard one from dell.. i cant increase it > than 1024
[06:01] <robby> xiao: www.linux-usb.org/devices.html
[06:01] <frost_> there's no video converters for linux?
[06:01] <robby> might help
[06:01] <Truma1> kikkomanchow:  You could try sudo dpgk-reconfigure xserver-xorg and select whatever rez you want
[06:01] <ans_> mongolai, huh how bizarre, now my output sound has disappeared.
[06:01] <osxdude|palmTX> Frost_: nope. At least none that I know of.
[06:01] <osxdude|palmTX> at least none in the respritories.
[06:01] <Truma1> KikkomanChow: err, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:01] <frost_> transcode, mencoder, vlc...
[06:01] <frost_> I just don't know how to use them
[06:01] <riotkittie> dpkg
[06:02] <firebird611> NigelS: OK, I will give that a try. Thank you very much for all of your help.
[06:02] <hende> its not open sorry
[06:02] <mongolai> ans_, did you change the other settings like Master or PCM?
[06:02] <osxdude|palmTX> at least none that work
[06:02] <riotkittie> oh dear, i'm slow tonight ^_^
[06:02] <hende> hey truma can you go to ubuntu effects so i can understand you
[06:02] <riotkittie> TTYs are brought up with networking during the startup process, right?
[06:02] <orbisvicis> frost_, interested in dvds get lxdvdrip and dvd::rip, interested in encoding files get avidemux and dvdauthor
[06:02] <Truma1> hende:  that's fine, go ahead and close out of beryl-manager .. then go to applications>accessories>terminal and type "beryl manager" -- what do you mean ubuntu effects, like the channel?
[06:03] <NigelS> firebird611: nps - as I say ppl on the net claim to have gotten this mode to work though some think it was switching to the latest driver...they might have altered their xorg while doing so though and that could have been the real cause
[06:03] <ans_> mongolai, figured it out, yeah, I had adjusted Master down to 30 thinking that's what you meant, and brought it back up, but it muted it. Fixed it... trying mic now...
[06:03] <osxdude|palmTX> riotkittty" yes
[06:03] <hende> yes
[06:03] <Dave_> I tried to install the nvidia driver for my xubuntu installation but now I can't log into my linux, it gives me can't start X until I fix the problem?
[06:03] <osxdude|palmTX> sry bad typin tday
[06:04] <riotkittie> Alright. Now I need a workaround because my networking's not starting.  hmm.
[06:04] <osxdude|palmTX> Ewww, "Wicked" soundtrack lol jk
[06:04] <hende> tell me how to paste bin and ill paste what it says
[06:04] <Dave_> is there a way to fix the entry in the config file, cause my card is Agp but it shows up as PCI in the log
[06:04] <Xiao> Thanks so much , robby
[06:04] <hende> how do you copy and paste???
[06:04] <Xiao> I think it could be my hub
[06:04] <TheCreationist> osxdude|palmTX: I'm so excited to actually see it, though! :P
[06:04] <robby> xiao  chances are your going be required to edit some driver files yourself
[06:04] <riotkittie> well, a work around other than my current, which is loading getty from an xterm
[06:04] <riotkittie> brb
[06:04] <firebird611> NigelS: Well I knot other Distros have worked out of the box at that res for me, but I prefer using Ubuntu and I am sure ubuntu can get to that res as well, just will take a lot of working on it evidently.
[06:04] <ans_> mongolai, nope nothing, still no input
[06:04] <firebird611> NigelS: Thanks again.
[06:04] <mongolai> ans_, are you running an actual microphone or something else like a guitar, etc...
[06:04] <Xiao> yea i kinda hope not
[06:04] <Sonicadvance1> someone was talking about opening terminal in the working directory
[06:04] <Sonicadvance1> how did that turn out?
[06:04] <osxdude|palmTX> TheCreationist: you havent seen it? neither have I...
[06:04] <Truma1> hende:  #ubuntu effects won't open, but I'm in #ubuntueffects now
[06:05] <slavik> Sonicadvance1: there is a package with that script in the repo
[06:05] <TheCreationist> osxdude|palmTX: Not yet.  I'm hoping to see it a week from Tuesday, though.  I love the music and the whole premise of it.
[06:05] <KikkomanChow> i checked the screen resolution preference.. i dont seem to able to incrase it
[06:05] <KikkomanChow> o i mean.. im at 1280 x
[06:05] <KikkomanChow> or maybe im just stupid and the card only supports upto 1280?
[06:05] <Sonicadvance1> and what would the packages name be?
[06:05] <KikkomanChow> eek
[06:05] <ans_> mongolai, actual logitech mic, like I said it was working albeit quietly
[06:05] <Truma1> KikkomanChow: Do you have your latest drivers?
[06:05] <shiester_miester> back
[06:05] <osxdude|palmTX> TheCreationist: nice.
[06:06] <ans_> mongolai, here's what I have in alsamixer:
[06:06] <orbisvicis> ive installed jack, but in system, prefs, sound: i cant output to jack ... how can i fix this ?
[06:06] <Nutubuntu> Hm ... Serpentine doesn't normalize audio levels when burning an audio CD? ... :/ okayyyy ... that's been a confirmed bug for over a year. What's a good audio CD burner that normalizes levels?
[06:06] <riotkittie> i wish i could run the fiesty live cd. :|  i want to know if it's worth the upgrade or something i would hate, without having to install to find out
[06:06] <banlieue> is there any way to incorporate a 'sleep 10' into a start-up program?
[06:06] <mongolai> ans_, stupid question, but are you absolutely sure it's plugged in properly?
[06:07] <robby> OMG!! MMMM!! Bannana cream pie
[06:07] <banlieue> aka, is there a way of making a start-up program wait 10 seconds before running (on start-up)?
[06:07] <osxdude|palmTX> Nutubuntu: K3B. it's KDE, but is rocks
[06:07] <kikkomanchow> lost connection >.>
[06:07] <nickrud> banlieue, write a script wrapper
[06:07] <orbisvicis> Nutubuntu, maybe run sound converter first before burning
[06:07] <osxdude|palmTX> !good
[06:07] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[06:07] <Nutubuntu> osxdude|palmTX,  k3B does not currently normalize before burning ...
[06:07] <Sonicadvance1> that was helpful I guess
[06:07] <banlieue> nickrud: is there a commandline way as well?
[06:07] <Nutubuntu> orbisvicis ... sound converter? (I'll go research ...)
[06:07] <nickrud> banlieue, specifically?
[06:07] <orbisvicis> banlieue, create a file in /usr/share/local with the command sleep 10 xxx; make it executable, and add it to startup
[06:08] <orbisvicis> * ;xxx
[06:08] <osxdude|palmTX> Nutubuntu: Rly? oops. I think that's a software-wide lunix bug.
[06:08] <slavik> anyone aware of good audio/video encoding front ends? the kind that only deal with audio or only video ...
[06:08] <banlieue> nickrud: um, a way to make it work without having to make a file for it?
[06:08] <niuq> iv'e just shared a folder, but i dont know how to access to that folder with my other computer, we are in the same network (i guess)
[06:08] <nickrud> banlieue, not that I'm aware of
[06:08] <shiester_miester> niuq, i have a similar problem
[06:08] <osxdude|palmTX> slavik, there is soundconverter
[06:08] <shiester_miester> if anyone could help niuq, I'd be interested in the solution
[06:08] <Nutubuntu> osxdude|palmTX,  sadly yes. there was a symlink "fix" suggested but I've read that doesn't work
[06:08] <osxdude|palmTX> !info soundconverter
[06:08] <ubotu> soundconverter: convert sound files to other formats. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9.4-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 67 kB, installed size 360 kB
[06:09] <klobster> whay cant I have totem-xine and totem-gstreamer at the same time?
[06:09] <UbuntuServerUser> slavik is WOL possible through wireless?
[06:09] <firebird611> NigelS: That did not work either :-(
[06:09] <UbuntuServerUser> slavik only information i could get concerning this card is that it is "PCI" interface, no WOL anywhere :(
[06:09] <Nutubuntu> orbisvicis ... so I'd pipe from soundconverter into ... cdrecord? I would guess?
[06:09] <slavik> UbuntuServerUser: dunno, depends on the spec ... I see why someone would want it a reason why you wouldn't ... and a reason why it can't be done
[06:09] <ans_> mongolai, thanks for asking :) but yeah it is
[06:09] <nickrud> klobster, because totem-gstreamer is still a piece of something, and needs replacement?
[06:09] <slavik> UbuntuServerUser: then it prolly doesn't support WOL
[06:10] <riotkittie> niuq: is that other computer a linux box? windows?
[06:10] <osxdude|palmTX> Nutubuntu:Thas too bad. Sorry, man.
[06:10] <orbisvicis> Nutubuntu, if sound converter is what you want .. on second thought not sure
[06:10] <robby> Try audacity
[06:10] <banlieue> alright, i'll stop nagging and just use an external file for it
[06:10] <niuq> riokittie: linux
[06:10] <banlieue> thanks a lot, nickrud (and orbisvicis)
[06:10] <UbuntuServerUser> slavik damn http://72.14.253.104/search?q=cache:EHc7PgGZSGsJ:www.shopping.com/xPF-Kingston-KINGSTON-10-100-NIC-22443100+"kne110tx"&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=4&gl=us
[06:10] <Nutubuntu> orbisvicis,  it's fine either way ... google and I are friends :)
[06:10] <mongolai> ans_, My guitar always comes unplugged, and it takes me about 10 minutes to realize it, every time!!
[06:10] <riotkittie> niuq: ah. im completely clueless at linux > linux networking :P sorry
[06:10] <osxdude|palmTX> oh yeah audacity. it rocks.
[06:11] <osxdude|palmTX> UbuntuServerUser: Hey! That' an IP address!
[06:11] <ans_> mongolai, here are part of my settings: Master = 100%, Master M = mute,Master S=mute,Headphone=mute,PCM=81%,Surround=mute,Surround=Shared,Center=mute,LFE=mute,Line=mute,Line Jack=mute,CD=80%,Mic=32%,Mic Boost=on,Mic Select=Mic1,Phone=mute,IEC958=off,
[06:11] <robby> you can run it from cmd
[06:11] <shiester_miester> one would think that linux -> linux networking should be rather easy?
[06:11] <robby> or start it from it rather
[06:11] <shiester_miester> especially if there is nothing complex about the setup
[06:11] <UbuntuServerUser> slavik so how do you suggest I turn this headless computer on in my back closet? its mounted way high so its kind of hard to lift it and press power button every time
[06:11] <banlieue> shiester_miester: is that an open or a rhetorical question?
[06:12] <Truma1> Can someone help hende out with Beryl?  He's got this pastebin http://pastebin.ca/605369, and I'm not sure what that means
[06:12] <shiester_miester> banlieue, im having a problen with networking and it's annoying, thats all
[06:12] <maxagaz> what is the reference newspaper for nerds ?
[06:12] <riotkittie> shiester_miester: i imagine it is, but i've only got linux on my laptop and my husband has no interest in it and wont let me put it on the desktop :P so i've never had reason to look into it
[06:12] <`Nick> anyone ever used SAM Linux
[06:12] <osxdude|palmTX> UbuntuServerUser: use a ladder
[06:12] <slavik> UbuntuServerUser: how are you with soldering wires? (relocate the power switch)
[06:12] <mongolai> ans_, for one thing, turn up master m, and master s
[06:12] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: what's the issue?
[06:12] <maxagaz> i forgot the name...
[06:13] <shiester_miester> i just have 2 computers connected with a crossover cable, no firewalls or routers or anything fancy in between them, and they just refuse to ping most of the time, and then when they do, I can't get file sharing working
[06:13] <UbuntuServerUser> slavik lol OK i get it I'll stop being lazy and use a ladder, thanks osxdude|palmTX
[06:13] <Frogzoo> maxagaz: slashdot?
[06:13] <maxagaz> an american newspaper...
[06:13] <maxagaz> Frogzoo: yes!
[06:13] <shiester_miester> i did have it working once, along with internet connection sharing, so its definitely possible
[06:13] <maxagaz> thanks
[06:13] <osxdude|palmTX> hender ill be back
[06:13] <UbuntuServerUser> slavik so no way wireless WOL will work huh?
[06:13] <slavik> UbuntuServerUser: prolly not
[06:13] <niuq> iv'e just shared a folder, but i dont know how to access to that folder with my other computer, we are in the same network (i guess)
[06:13] <UbuntuServerUser> slavik ok thanks
[06:13] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: does ifconfig show a proper ip address on both machines?

[06:15] <ans_> mongolai, that was at 100%
[06:15] <mongolai> ans_, shoot, I was hoping that was it. :(
[06:15] <osxdude|palmTX> Truma1: It looks sorta X-y, but it seems like Beryl can't find an X screen.
[06:15] <robby> lol.  wallop
[06:16] <mongolai> ans_, what program are you using to capture from the mic?
[06:16] <Truma1> osxdude|palmTX: He said that he may have more than one beryl installed, tho I dunno how that's possible .. is it apt-get remove beryl-manager?
[06:16] <kikkomanchow> hrmm how do i get widescreen resolutions on my ubuntu?
[06:16] <ans_> mongolai, what about line in? That's muted right now
[06:16] <ans_> mongolai, I was trying to get skype to work
[06:17] <ans_> mongolai, so I have been testing with their testing service
[06:17] <osxdude|palmTX> Truma1: probaby 2 different version far apart from each other. and yes it is.
[06:17] <robby> kik: try system - preferences - screen resolution
[06:17] <mongolai> ans_, try unmuting that, also, is it a USB mic or a 1/8 inch standard type?
[06:17] <Truma1> osxdude|palmTX: I gotcha; could that cause that problem?
[06:17] <Truma1> osxdude|palmTX: Not sure why I'm acting as proxy for hende :\  Where'd he go?
[06:18] <hende> ok sorry
[06:18] <osxdude|palmTX> Kikkomnchow: What is your card's manufacturer?
[06:18] <Truma1> hende:  np
[06:18] <kikkomanchow> robby: doesnt display those resolution
[06:18] <kikkomanchow> osxdude|palmTX: intel integrated
[06:18] <ans_> mongolai, standard type
[06:18] <hende> it hard to read in here
[06:18] <hende> so does anyone think they know what to do
[06:18] <Truma1> hende:  sudo apt-get remove beryl-manager
[06:18] <the_padawan> hi all, how can i search for the ip addresses of machines in my network that i can ssh into?
[06:19] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, taking longer than expected, sorry.  it keeps crashing :P
[06:19] <osxdude|palmTX> hende: sudo apt-get remove beryl-* (this will remove evrything beryl
[06:19] <sonoml> Is there a command to reset the sound card or driver?  I have nothing with sound running but XMMS says the sound card is in use and other programs produce no sound. but i cant logout or restart due to a download
[06:20] <osxdude|palmTX> hende: then sudo apt-get install beryl-manager
[06:20] <mongolai> ans_, do you have the sound recorder app, or audacity installed? If not install one of them and try to record with it
[06:21] <kikkomanchow> ...
[06:21] <kikkomanchow> my screen looks so stretched >.<
[06:21] <ans_> mongolai, yeah tried the sound recorder app, but had other problems (couldn't save b/c it said something like "error parameters wrong")
[06:21] <osxdude|palmTX> kikkomanchow: omg! omg! omg! install 915resolution!

[06:23] <Dr_willis> UbuntuServerUser,  i cant think of why you would disable it.
[06:23] <UbuntuServerUser> dr_willis k, you have it enabled?
[06:23] <UbuntuServerUser> dr_willis ok
[06:23] <UbuntuServerUser> dr_willis I will enable it, thanks

[06:26] <kikkomanchow> thx truma ill try that
[06:26] <shiester_miester> for some reason it crashed like 10 times :/
[06:26] <shiester_miester> the old computer is a piece of junk :P i installed ubuntu on it in an attempt to rescue it and make it useful
[06:26] <Truma1> hende:  Any luck?
[06:26] <hende> k back
[06:26] <kikkomanchow> it says Couldn't find package 915resolution
[06:26] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, now to do the ifconfig...
[06:27] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: doesn't sound good - maybe choose "memtest" from the grub menu, also might be power issues
[06:27] <hende> no i cant even get to the controls to change the animations
[06:27] <Truma1> kikkomanchow: try sudo apt-get update
[06:27] <Truma1> kikkomanchow:  and then the other command
[06:27] <MISTERTibbs> I installed feisty on an A31 Thinkpad and it runs great
[06:27] <kikkomanchow> that updates some sort of library eh?

[06:27] <Truma1> osxdude|palmTX: Oh yeah, I had to add universe to the main ones before that'd work.. I don't remember where that is, tho
[06:27] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, ok, they are both reporting the valid IP addresses that I assigned to them
[06:27] <osxdude|palmTX> hende: not you
[06:28] <hende> oh what about me

[06:28] <ubotu> pong
[06:28] <kikkomanchow> ok i did that ..

[06:28] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: by ip address
[06:28] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, nope

[06:28] <ubotu> Package ping does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[06:29] <shiester_miester> it just returns "destination host unreachable" constantly
[06:29] <the_padawan> can anyone tell what would it take to set up a local dns so that if i type $ ssh computer2  it will connect me to computer2?
[06:29] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: can you ping the local ip ?
[06:29] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, which IP is that? the local address for this computer?
[06:29] <osxdude|palmTX> Ping yourself!
[06:29] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: yes
[06:29] <shiester_miester> ah ok
[06:29] <hende> i dont wanna ping myself!!!\
[06:29] <shiester_miester> yep, it pings just fine
[06:29] <hende> did osx and truma give up on me
[06:29] <sonoml> I have every program closed yet i still get the error my soundcard is in use.  My sound normally has never had a problem. is there a way to make it refresh the soundcard or restart it
[06:30] <Truma1> hende:  Sorry, umm...
[06:30] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: both comps on the same network range?
[06:30] <MISTERTibbs> pinging yourself is illegal in the 48 states

[06:31] <kikkomanchow> after apt-get i got this Update Manager thing.. and it is now updating all these files too..
[06:31] <Frogzoo> Hobbsee: sure, thanks, sorry for bothering you
[06:32] <Truma1> kikkomanchow:  Hmm, maybe it'll work after that
[06:32] <robby> kik: so screen resolution wont let you change the res?
[06:32] <Truma1> osxdude|palmTX: Do you have any idea for hende?  I'm out of my league there :\
[06:32] <kikkomanchow> well.. my max is 1280 x.. and there are no widescreen res
[06:32] <MISTERTibbs> TaintedTux, just get realplayer
[06:32] <TaintedTux> ok...thatll work i suppose
[06:32] <TaintedTux> thanks didnt think of it
[06:32] <Truma1> kikkomanchow: I had that same problem on my macbook, that 915resolution thing fixed it for me after it got all set up
[06:33] <K`zan> Hi folks, adept hung and I had to kill it and now it still thinks adept is running - lock file someplace - not in /var/lock :-(
[06:33] <osxdude|palmTX> hende: reinstall...

[06:33] <kikkomanchow> Truma1: did u have to manually configure something on your 915?
[06:33] <Shadowpillar_> feisty has to be the most unstable ubuntu I've used yet
[06:33] <shiester_miester> Shadowpillar_, really?
[06:33] <robby> i wonder if that will make my screen res better
[06:33] <kikkomanchow> its feistastic
[06:33] <shiester_miester> how unstable is it, for you?
[06:33] <Truma1> kikkomanchow: Not that I remember; after the apt-get install thing, it did everything by itself.  I think I may have had to restart my computer or maybe just restart x
[06:33] <Dr_willis> Shadowpillar_,  i find it the most stable so far.. actually they all have been very stable.
[06:33] <Shadowpillar_> network manager randomly disables my connection completely
[06:33] <shiester_miester> kikkomanchow, lmao
[06:33] <Shadowpillar_> to where I have to restart
[06:34] <shiester_miester> wow, thats terrible
[06:34] <Shadowpillar_> like every 10 hours
[06:34] <kikkomanchow> truma1: what is "restart x".. i dunt even know what is x
[06:34] <ReDWolfLH> hi all
[06:34] <osxdude|palmTX> !x
[06:34] <Shadowpillar_> or the system will randomly freeze
[06:34] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[06:34] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: does 'sudo mii-tool eth0' show the link as up?
[06:34] <Shadowpillar_> never had this issue with dapper or edgy
[06:34] <Nutubuntu> Shadowpillar_,  same hardware?
[06:34] <kikkomanchow> o.. i thought ubuntu uses something called GNOME or something
[06:34] <robby> ctrl+alt+backspace
[06:34] <Shadowpillar_> yep
[06:34] <Shadowpillar_> nothing changed
[06:35] <Nutubuntu> It's been rocksteady for me
[06:35] <kikkomanchow> whats GNOME compare to X
[06:35] <osxdude|palmTX> !x > kikkomanchow (see PM from ubotu)
[06:35] <Nutubuntu> Shadowpillar_,  last time you ran memtest?
[06:35] <Dr_willis> X is the foundation, GNome is the House. :)
[06:35] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, eth0: negotiated 100baseTx-FD, link ok
[06:35] <kikkomanchow> o
[06:35] <Shadowpillar_> Nutubuntu: the crashing thing I think is the madwifi driver
[06:35] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: both ends
[06:35] <Sonicadvance1> anyone know how to hook a Xbox 360 to a computer with 2 LAN cards with 1 LAN card being hooked to the internet and the other to the 360 and allowing the 360 to have internet?
[06:35] <osxdude|palmTX> Gnome IS x, man.
[06:35] <kikkomanchow> !x GNOME
[06:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about x gnome - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:35] <Truma1> kikkomanchow: The shortcut to restart is ctrl+alt+backspace
[06:35] <J^u^d^e^> wohow do i control my mouse by a cellphone?? I've done it in windows and i want to do it in ubuntu
[06:35] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, on the other end it says "no MII transceiver present!"
[06:36] <Truma1> kikkomanchow: But that closes everything, so be careful
[06:36] <kikkomanchow> do i have to restart the computer to restart x?
[06:36] <osxdude|palmTX> Sonicadvance1: I have tried that with computers; no luck.
[06:36] <Dr_willis> osxdude|palmTX,  Gnome is a Desktop Enviroment, a set og programs that run on top of X. Gnome is NOT X.
[06:36] <kikkomanchow> or i can i just restart the x part from terminal of some sort?
[06:36] <Sonicadvance1> It has to be possible to do it
[06:36] <MISTERTibbs> Sonicadavance1, a gaming router just for the xbox runs about $30.  much more if you buy the "official" xbox router
[06:36] <Madpilot> kikkomanchow, no. Ctrl+Alt+Backspace will restart X - and all the programs in it
[06:36] <robby> xserver is it?
[06:36] <Dr_willis> gnome is one of many 'gui's you can use on linux.
[06:36] <osxdude|palmTX> Dr_wills: Oh, right.
[06:36] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: then try:  sudo ethtool  eth0
[06:36] <ReDWolfLH> sonic you can press ctrl+alt+backspace
[06:36] <hende> hey everyone i got beryl but i cant get to where you can change animations and stuff
[06:36] <Sonicadvance1> I mean, seriously, if a router can do it, why can't a PC
[06:36] <kikkomanchow> Madpilot: oic.. ic ic
[06:36] <Sonicadvance1> ReDWolfLH fuck no
[06:37] <kikkomanchow> ok ill do just that after the updates
[06:37] <Sonicadvance1> I'm not restarting X
[06:37] <shiester_miester> Sonicadvance1, its definitely possible, maybe its just not implemented
[06:37] <Dr_willis> kikkomanchow,  alt-ctrl-backspace will FORCE X to quit/restart Right then and there.. :)
[06:37] <ReDWolfLH> That's how you restart X
[06:37] <Truma1> hende:  the jewel is sitting in the top right hand corner, but it won't let you click on it?
[06:37] <ReDWolfLH> isn't that just what you asked?
[06:37] <Dr_willis> Do not pass go.. do not collect $200.. kills it then and there. :)
[06:37] <robby> lol sonic
[06:37] <hende> no
[06:37] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, anything specific that I'm looking for in the output of that?
[06:37] <kikkomanchow> Am i crazy to learn how to use linux, install LAMP, learn one of the Ps, and make a webpage by Tommorrow night?
[06:37] <osxdude|palmTX> Sonicadvanced1: You have to relly feck up your setting to make the router thing work
[06:37] <therealnanotube> Sonicadvance1: look up routing, ip forwarding. if you don't know about networking, it's hard to tell you what to do in few words. so just go and learn about it on google. :) 'how to set up a linux router' would be a good start...
[06:37] <hende> it wond let me truma now i cant even get to those settings when i reinstalled it
[06:37] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: right at the bottom "link detected:"
[06:37] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, it says "link detected: yes", among other things
[06:38] <Sonicadvance1> Aye captain
[06:38] <Madpilot> Sonicadvance1, install Firestarter, and have a look at http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php
[06:38] <ReDWolfLH> oh sorry I'm using IRSSI I looked away for a second, it was someone else who wanted to restart X
[06:38] <Toma-> How do you import a perl module? (.pm)
[06:38] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: nothing else to do: pastebin /etc/network/interfaces from both machines
[06:38] <hende> truma???
[06:38] <Truma1> hende:  try sudo apt-get remove beryl-* again, and then sudo apt-get install beryl-manager emerald-themes
[06:39] <osxdude|palmTX> Madpilot: Does that work on windows?
[06:39] <Madpilot> osxdude|palmTX, Firestarter? don't think so.
[06:39] <ReDWolfLH> is this CD burning problem common with Feisty?
[06:39] <robby> lol  lynx
[06:39] <kikkomanchow> o, random question , would beryl work on a crappy video card like mines?
[06:39] <robby> text browsing brings back memories
[06:39] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, on it
[06:39] <Madpilot> osxdude|palmTX, it should work with a Windows machine using the Ubuntu box to get to the net
[06:39] <hende> abort
[06:40] <Truma1> hende:  ?
[06:40] <hende> thats what i got
[06:40] <commonlyUNIQU3> banshee question for somebody...
[06:40] <Truma1> did you say "Y" after the sudo apt-get remove beryl-* ?
[06:40] <commonlyUNIQU3> are there any command-line switches for banshee to queue music?
[06:40] <Truma1> hende:  Or, try closing beryl first
[06:40] <Madpilot> commonlyUNIQU3, "man banshee" should tell you
[06:41] <Dr_willis> commonlyUNIQU3,  try banshee --help
[06:41] <commonlyUNIQU3> i set banshee as the app to open .mp3 files from nautilus
[06:41] <commonlyUNIQU3> hang on
[06:41] <Shadow6363> hey, when running sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, theres some parameter you can pass to make it like start all over, any ideas what it is?
[06:41] <commonlyUNIQU3> already tried "man banshe", no man page
[06:41] <osxdude|palmTX> I wanted to do the same thing but from  a Win to Lun
[06:41] <bruenig> commonlyUNIQU3, banshee maybe
[06:42] <hende> removed and tried that apt get emeral themes did not work
[06:42] <bruenig> hende, emerald themes maybe
[06:42] <commonlyUNIQU3> Dr_willis: "banshee --help" did the trick, thanks!
[06:42] <travis> how do i change my nickname in x-chat without re-logging
[06:42] <commonlyUNIQU3> forgot to try that one when man didn't work
[06:42] <bruenig> travis, /nick newname
[06:42] <ReDWolfLH> travis /nick YourNewNIckHere
[06:42] <Truma1> hende: sudo apt-get install beryl-manager emerald-themes ?
[06:42] <commonlyUNIQU3> once again - the ubuntu community saves the day!
[06:42] <travis> thanks :)
[06:43] <Truman> Aha!
[06:43] <bruenig> commonlyUNIQU3, you should have just looked on the blogs where the ubuntu documentation is kept apparently
[06:43] <hende> got it
[06:43] <hende> its downloading
[06:43] <Truman> hende:  K
[06:43] <travis__> lol too many damn travii
[06:43] <commonlyUNIQU3> @bruenig: well, I rarely visit the IRC channels, so I guess you'll have to forgive my laziness just this once ;)
[06:44] <commonlyUNIQU3> goodnight all!
[06:44] <blazemonger> anyone in brasil?
[06:44] <bruenig> !br
[06:44] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[06:44] <ReDWolfLH> #ubuntu-br
[06:44] <blazemonger> iive thought abou8t retiring in brasil
[06:44] <bruenig> then you would have to use dream linux
[06:44] <ReDWolfLH> lol bruenig
[06:44] <travis__> heh
[06:45] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, almost done :P
[06:45] <Hitomaro> could the reason I was having trouble loading the ubuntu cd be because of me downloading the x86version rather than the 64bit?
[06:45] <hende> k now what
[06:45] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, here we are http://pastebin.com/942990
[06:45] <travis__> lol
[06:45] <Shadow6363> anyone know the parameter/switch?
[06:45] <Truman_> hende:  Try to start beryl-manager again -- should be under applications somewhere
[06:45] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: looking
[06:45] <blazemonger> why would i have to use dream?
[06:45] <ReDWolfLH> for what Shadow6363?
[06:45] <travis__> oh wait... thought you had other way around... would think x86 would be backwards compatible on x64
[06:45] <Hitomaro> how can I tell which is my system running under?
[06:45] <bruenig> blazemonger, brazilian distro of course
[06:45] <ReDWolfLH> the x86 is backwards compatable
[06:46] <Shadow6363> redwolflh: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, theres something you can add so it starts all over
[06:46] <ReDWolfLH> I'm running it right now
[06:46] <Hitomaro> oh
[06:46] <bruenig> x64 is backwards compatible you mean
[06:46] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, sorry that took so long, i had to go and find a usb stick because the other computer doesnt have a functional network connection with which i can pass data along :P
[06:46] <hende> ya its got a different settings menu now but how do i apply settings
[06:46] <ReDWolfLH> oh just hit ctrl-alt-backspace do it manually Shadow lol
[06:46] <mongolai> no, x86 is *forward* compatible
[06:46] <shiester_miester> and I'll be damned if i'm writing it down
[06:46] <Hitomaro> should I just stop trying to run ubuntu?
[06:46] <travis__> lol sigh
[06:46] <Truman_> hende:  You should just be able to pick what you want and then hit "quit"
[06:46] <blazemonger> oh my friend loves dreamlinux
[06:46] <blazemonger> dream isn't bad...
[06:46] <travis__> whatever backwards/forward compatible
[06:46] <Hitomaro> what are my other options?
[06:46] <ReDWolfLH> er.. so englisch isn't my strong point
[06:46] <hende> that doesnt apply them
[06:46] <bruenig> blazemonger, it is good
[06:46] <ReDWolfLH> english*
[06:46] <Truman_> hende:  After you go to "swtich window manager" and hit "beryl"
[06:46] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: I'd add in there "network 192.168.0.0" under eth0 on both
[06:47] <therealnanotube> i have a little java plugin problem. please check out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=489128 for details. any thoughts/suggestions would be appreciated.
[06:47] <hende> its already on there
[06:47] <robby> lol he did it
[06:47] <ReDWolfLH> How can I configure my system so I recognises my DVD burner to write DVDs and CDs.. it reads them fine, just wont allow me to burn.
[06:47] <hende> truman its already on there
[06:47] <ReDWolfLH> ?
[06:47] <Truman_> hende:  k, hmm
[06:47] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, under which eth0?  its mentioned in both files numerous times
[06:48] <shiester_miester> "auto eth0" is at the start and end, and then there is also "iface eth0 inet static"
[06:48] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: under "iface eth0 inet static"
[06:48] <shiester_miester> ok
[06:48] <Truman_> hende:  what are you trying to add?
[06:48] <shiester_miester> brb
[06:49] <MISTERTibbs> Hitomaro, I'm late to this thread.  U can't install ubuntu???
[06:49] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: then 'sudo /etc/init.d/networking stop" 'sudo /etc/init.d/networking start"
[06:49] <Hitomaro> MISTERTibbs, yes
[06:49] <Hitomaro> MISTERTibbs, I'm having problems running the livecd
[06:49] <hende> well i added emerald themes but i just wanted the windows effect
[06:49] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, ok, thanks a lot for your help
[06:49] <MISTERTibbs> Hitomaro, Livecd won't even run?
[06:49] <Hitomaro> MISTERTibbs, no.. :(
[06:50] <Truman_> hende:  like the burning and stuff?
[06:50] <jerbear> is there a way for me (as a regular user, not root) to run a script on an event (suspend, resume)?
[06:50] <hende> YES
[06:50] <MISTERTibbs> Hitomaro, and you've set your bios to detect the cd, yes??
[06:50] <hende> you know what im talking about
[06:50] <Hitomaro> MISTERTibbs, of course
[06:50] <travis__> how far do you get Hitomaro?
[06:50] <Hitomaro> MISTERTibbs, I get all sorts of errors once I pass the ubuntu main menu
[06:50] <MISTERTibbs> Hitomaro, did you download the iso and burn it or do you have an  canonical disk
[06:50] <Truman_> hende:  if you go to beryl settings manager and then "visual effects" on that next window, do you have "animations" listed on the left?
[06:51] <Ricket> What is the shell program that easily lists and removes session startup programs? I forget the name, I know it's long and with a couple hyphens though.....
[06:51] <hende> no its emerald themes menu
[06:51] <mongolai> Hitomaro, try disabling both ACPI  and APIC
[06:51] <MISTERTibbs> Hitomaro, i'm confused.  thought livecd wouldn't come up at all??
[06:51] <Hitomaro> yes I tried that
[06:51] <Ricket> Nevermind, I found it! It's gnome-session-remove
[06:51] <Ricket> Thanks.
[06:51] <Truman_> hende:  do you have one called beryl settings manager?
[06:51] <Ricket> exit
[06:51] <Hitomaro> mongolai
[06:51] <Ricket> oops haha
[06:51] <travis__> Hitomaro, have you tried alternate install cd?
[06:51] <Hitomaro> I typed nolistic noalic whatever that means
[06:51] <therealnanotube> Ricket: heh, i was about to say "something starting with 'gnome-session' " :)
[06:52] <hende> ya but
[06:52] <Truman_> hende:  That's where the burning and stuff is on mine
[06:52] <mongolai> Hitomaro, I mean as a kernel parameter, not in your BIOS.
[06:52] <Hitomaro> kernel?
[06:52] <Hitomaro> yeah I get fatal kernel errors
[06:52] <travis__> lol noalic and nolistic sound like kernel options to me
[06:52] <travis__> not bios settings
[06:52] <mongolai> Hitomaro, a boot parameter.
[06:52] <travis__> ouch
[06:53] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, , brb, restarting network on this computer
[06:53] <sputnike> Hey All, I need to change a Disks file system to NTFS (currently it thinks it doesn't have one), but I have files on it that I need to keep
[06:53] <MISTERTibbs> Hitomaro, try the alternate install method.  also, you matched 32 or 64 bit version to your cd??
[06:53] <sputnike> Anyone got any ideas?
[06:53] <jerbear> is there a way for me (as a regular user, not root) to run a script on an event (suspend, resume)?
[06:53] <Hitomaro> I have no idea MISTERTibbs
[06:53] <therealnanotube> sputnike: back up files, reformat drive, put files back. :)
[06:53] <travis__> lol id just be happy if i could suspend
[06:54] <MISTERTibbs> Hitomaro, no idea on what??
[06:54] <Hitomaro> what you meant by matching 32or 64
[06:54] <OmegaConsole> travis__: are you using NetworkManager?
[06:54] <shiester_miester> back
[06:54] <Truman_> hende: mine was in "beryl settings manager" > "visual effects" > "Animations" > then under "Close" I did "Burn" for #1 and #2
[06:54] <Frogzoo> sputnike: if you've got files on it - there's definately a file system there - before you format it as ntfs, you'll need to move your files somewhere else
[06:54] <kravlin> can anyone help me out with choosing memory for a computer or point me twords a channel that would?
[06:54] <travis__> OmegaConsole, no im configuring nic on boot
[06:54] <MISTERTibbs> Hitomaro, ok.  there's a 32 bit version for most of us and a 64 bit version for servers.
[06:54] <Truman_> hende: And make sure animations is checked
[06:54] <Nutubuntu> kravlin,  #hardware
[06:54] <Frogzoo> travis__: you edited /etc/default/acpi-support ?
[06:55] <robby> yar balls
[06:55] <robby> tar
[06:55] <Hitomaro> ok
[06:55] <OmegaConsole> travis__: ah, cause thats often a problem for suspend/resume.
[06:55] <kravlin> nutubuntu: Thanks.
[06:55] <MISTERTibbs> Hitomaro, i use the 32 bit and don't know all the differences.  pretty sure you need to have the correct hardware version
[06:55] <travis__> Frogzoo, nope... havent been told to edit acpi-support
[06:55] <mundungus> hello,cud someone know how to use gnokii?
[06:55] <Frogzoo> travis__: at the bottom: ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE=true
[06:55] <Hitomaro> I guess I do MISTERTibbs
[06:55] <travis__> hmm
[06:56] <Hitomaro> how does one find out their hardware settings?
[06:56] <therealnanotube> jerbear: why not just run as root, but su to your user in the script?
[06:56] <Hitomaro> version*
[06:56] <MISTERTibbs> Hitomaro, ok.  have u tried the alternate installation method??
[06:56] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, still not working! :(
[06:56] <shiester_miester> bah!
[06:56] <travis__> Hitomaro, depends, what settings you want?
[06:56] <therealnanotube> jerbear: that way you could just add something to the systemwide suspend/resume.sh...
[06:56] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: interesting
[06:56] <Hitomaro> I've tried safemode
[06:56] <Hitomaro> thats about it
[06:56] <jerbear> therealnanotube: i gotcha. that will work
[06:56] <MISTERTibbs> !lspci
[06:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lspci - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:56] <shiester_miester> it was working before :(
[06:56] <shiester_miester> i know! ill take the "IT Crowd" solution and turn it off and on again until it works!
[06:56] <therealnanotube> jerbear: cool :)
[06:57] <travis__> lol shiester_miester
[06:57] <shiester_miester> hey, it just might
[06:57] <shiester_miester> and when it does, I'LL be the one laughing!
[06:57] <robby> lol shiester
[06:57] <MISTERTibbs> Hitomaro, system>Preferences>Hardware Information
[06:57] <travis__> anyone else here using xubuntu? :)
[06:57] <shiester_miester> occasionally i can get an internet connection on that computer if i restart it enough times if the modem is plugged into it
[06:58] <travis__> i cant be the only mouse here
[06:58] <Alives> anyone know how to get the fiesty livecd to pxeboot?
[06:58] <mongolai> shiester_miester, don't forget to unplug the power cord and blow in the opening!
[06:58] <klobster> why cant I have totem-xine and totem-gstreamer at the same time?
[06:58] <shiester_miester> mongolai, good idea!
[06:58] <therealnanotube> i have a little java plugin problem. please check out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=489128 for details. any thoughts/suggestions would be appreciated.
[06:58] <travis__> hmm for pxeboot, you'd need the floppy image
[06:58] <travis__> you cant just do the whole cd i dont think
[06:58] <Hitomaro> I'm using windows right now... I want to partition ubuntu so I can experience linux on my pc
[06:58] <Alives> oh and then i mount the iso via nfs?
[06:58] <shiester_miester> Hitomaro, welcome to ubuntu!
[06:58] <MISTERTibbs> Hitomaro, first defrag 2X
[06:59] <Hitomaro> ok
[06:59] <shiester_miester> Hitomaro, to experience linux, all you have to do is boot from the live cd! no installation necessary
[06:59] <MISTERTibbs> Hitomaro, dual boot or ubuntu only?
[06:59] <Frogzoo> Alives: you can pxe boot the livecd ?
[06:59] <shiester_miester> MISTERTibbs, why do you have to defrag?
[06:59] <travis__> lol he's tried booting livecd
[06:59] <travis__> he gets kernel panics
[06:59] <Hitomaro> dual boot.. but I don't mind trying ubuntu only
[06:59] <travis__> tux is shy
[06:59] <shiester_miester> oh ok
[06:59] <Hitomaro> if it'll get ubuntu installed
[06:59] <shiester_miester> heh
[06:59] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: you using eth1 for anything?
[06:59] <sputnike> Sorry had to run out quickly there... there 200gb of data on the drive, in essence, I can't back it up
[06:59] <mongolai> shiester_miester, Hitomaro is having problems getting the cd to work :(
[06:59] <MISTERTibbs> shiester_miester, hidden files are all across the disk.  moving them avoids conflicts
[06:59] <robby> lol
[07:00] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, yeah, my internet connection
[07:00] <robby> tux is shy
[07:00] <shiester_miester> MISTERTibbs, thats interesting
[07:00] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: no - you're using eth0..
[07:00] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: oh ic
[07:00] <MISTERTibbs> shiester_miester, wha'ts really puzzling is that u DON'T have to defrag linux!
[07:00] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: it needs to be on a different network though
[07:00] <travis__> its like "i dont like the way that bios just touched me... aieeeeee!!!"
[07:00] <shiester_miester> ive set eth1 to automaticaly get IP from the ISP
[07:00] <Truman_> Hitomaro: Have you tried doing that "verify disk integrity" thing when it tries to boot the ubuntu disk?  Maybe something weird happened when you were burning it
[07:01] <travis__> (kernel panic)
[07:01] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, how do i make it so that its on a different net work
[07:01] <shiester_miester> *network
[07:01] <Ubertastic> Could anyone tell me why my sound (in Ubuntu 7.04) just became extremely low quality (crackles, heavy disortion, etc)?
[07:01] <travis__> good idea truman, maybe bad cd
[07:01] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: change eth1's address 192.168.0.1 -> address 192.168.1.1
[07:01] <MISTERTibbs> Hitomaro, back up your data before messing with your system
[07:01] <Hitomaro> Truman_, the disk works perfectly fine
[07:01] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, then i won't be able to connect to the internet
[07:01] <robby> Dude tux pulls the ladies
[07:01] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, do you mean eth0?
[07:01] <Hitomaro> Truman_, I sucessfully installed ubuntu on my pc in my livingroom
[07:02] <Hitomaro> other*
[07:02] <Truman_> Hitomaro: Ah, I gotcha.
[07:02] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: or use a different network range for eth0 - your choice
[07:02] <travis__> total lack of ladies with this here penguin
[07:02] <Hitomaro> but this is the pc I use on a day-to-day basis
[07:02] <MISTERTibbs> Hitomaro, if u want both xp and linux, you must have windows installed first.  then u can install ubuntu.  NOT the other way!
[07:02] <varustah> hey
[07:02] <Hitomaro> I have windows installed
[07:03] <gerro> Hitomaro: or you can use virtualbox to use windows inside of linux
[07:03] <Jude> Ubertastic: restart your computer if that does not help then let me know
[07:03] <gerro> Hitomaro: or you can use wine www.winehq.org to run windows programs in linux
[07:03] <Ubertastic> Jude, does ctrl + alt + backspace count?
[07:03] <travis__> alright g'night all
[07:03] <slavik> night all
[07:03] <robby> you tux must have a strange pder
[07:03] <Jude> Ubertastic: no
[07:03] <Hitomaro> yeah but I first have to be able to run live-cd. :)
[07:03] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, makes no difference :/
[07:03] <MISTERTibbs> Hitomaro, i'll tell you what i did.  First back up all essential files, run "clean up" and defrag
[07:04] <Ludo__> hey im running ubuntu 7.04, fresh install. have a MSI MS-6852 Wifi/bluetooth adaptor. It connects to my network or says it does, but i have no internet activity
[07:04] <Ubertastic> Jude: Ok, will try. Be right back.
[07:04] <travis__> good luck Hitomaro
[07:04] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: you'll need to restart networking again
[07:04] <MISTERTibbs> !gpart
[07:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gpart - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:04] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, oh ok
[07:04] <Jude> Ubertastic: your sound card should reboot
[07:04] <mundungus> guyz,is there any other mobile application aother than gnokii?
[07:04] <varustah> can i make floating password dialog in xubuntu? onboard wont input them...
[07:04] <robby> ubotu is slacking
[07:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about is slacking - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:04] <Jude> mundungus: try ekiga s
[07:05] <unfo> hi all : I want to start contributing to one of the not-yet-OSS Sonic the Hedgehog 2-D engines.  Project Mettrix is written in portable Watcom C/C++.  The other, Retro Sonic, uses DirectX; I haven't checked if Retro Sonic works on Wine yet.  If I can make it work on Wine, is there any reason to favor Project Mettrix?
[07:05] <therealnanotube> !gparted
[07:05] <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
[07:05] <varustah> i love ubu
[07:05] <unfo> s/it/Retro Sonic
[07:05] <mundungus> Jude: k,thanx,btw, does it work with most phones as gnokii?
[07:05] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, it did something slightly different
[07:05] <Jude> yes
[07:05] <mongolai> Hitomaro, It is most likely a hardware conflict. Can you post your system specs at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/   and then provide a link here for us to look at?
[07:05] <OmegaConsole> Is python interpreter installed in ubuntu by default?
[07:05] <MISTERTibbs> Hitomaro, then i installed ubuntu.  Installation proceeded normally.  Be careful at the parition state and make sure you understand your selections.  REALLY easy to wipe out here!
[07:05] <robby> POPCORN
[07:05] <mundungus> thanx man!
[07:05] <shiester_miester> now when i try to ping the other computer from this one it says "ping: sendmsg: operation not permitted"
[07:05] <therealnanotube> unfo: well... portable software gives that nice warm feeling. :)
[07:06] <varustah> kde i like
[07:06] <mongolai> OmegaCenti, Yes. it is
[07:06] <therealnanotube> OmegaConsole: yes it is
[07:06] <Hitomaro> mongolai, ok
[07:06] <mongolai> oops...
[07:06] <dibblego> when I boot the Feisty i386 CD, X crashes with "Fatal Server error Caught signal 11" server aborting - am I screwed?
[07:06] <unfo> therealnanotube, directX is portable as long as you have wine.
[07:06] <MISTERTibbs> Hitomaro, I made 4 partitions: 1 very small one for boot files, 1 for the windows system, 1 for ext3 and ntfs in linux.
[07:06] <unfo> therealnanotube, I suppose though that watcom is portable to way more platforms.
[07:07] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: 'ping 192.168.0.x' ?
[07:07] <Nutubuntu> shiester_miester,  that reads as if you're firewalling your ping and not letting it through ?
[07:07] <hende> im gonna huck my laptop out the window
[07:07] <therealnanotube> unfo: heh yea, wine is kind of like the ugly sibling of portability. you can run things with it, but it doesn't make me happy. :)
[07:07] <onexused> I'm trying to set up an NFS share.  I allowed NFS through the firewall (using firestarter) both ways, and allowed the computer I'm trying to connect from using "Administration>Shared Folders", but when I try to connect (# mount -t nfs server:Shared /mount/point), I'm told "Permission denied".  What can I do about it?
[07:08] <shiester_miester> Frogzoo, i changed the IP addresses on both computers...should i only have changed it on one?
[07:08] <varustah> is there a way to get onboard at the login window?
[07:08] <therealnanotube> i have a little java plugin problem. please check out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=489128 for details. any thoughts/suggestions would be appreciated.
[07:08] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: both ends, of course
[07:08] <shiester_miester> yeah
[07:08] <Frogzoo> shiester_miester: you'd need to change the network range also
[07:08] <shiester_miester> oh, to what?
[07:08] <MISTERTibbs> hende, don't do it!\
[07:08] <unfo> dibblego, boot in Safe Graphics Mode from the boot menu
[07:09] <sputnike> Ok basically I have a 300gb drive, with 200gb of it used up storing files... I need to shrink the main partition down to 240gb and have another 60gb partition running, so I can install Windows/Linux on, however g partition tool doesn't recognise the file format, I need to change it to NTFS without loosing all my files... any ideas?
[07:09] <dibblego> unfo, tried that unsuccessfully
[07:09] <Truman_> hende: This is what Linux is all about, man
[07:09] <shiester_miester> Truman_, lol
[07:10] <unfo> dibblego, find out what's wrong and file a bug report once you do? :)
[07:10] <MISTERTibbs> sputnike, don't think it can done.  even windows won't let you change the files system AFTER you've selected it.
[07:10] <unfo> dibblego, does it work in another distro such as OpenSUSE?
[07:10] <dibblego> unfo, it seems to be quite a common and recurring problem (regression)
[07:10] <unfo> dibblego, it sadly is.
[07:10] <barnydan> windows sux
[07:10] <dibblego> unfo, the machine is running dapper right now
[07:10] <sputnike> MISTERTibbs: That's what I don't understand, I formatted it to NTFS using Windows, now it's not recognised in ubuntu...
[07:10] <berent> which is the best mobo for e6600
[07:11] <berent> asus / intel and which make?
[07:11] <sputnike> MISTERTibbs: it can see there are files on it, and I can open the files, I just can't shrink it
[07:11] <Truman_> berent:  depends what you want to do with it
[07:11] <Jude> mundungus:
[07:11] <Jude> did that help??
[07:11] <therealnanotube> sputnike: what does ubuntu say it's formatted as? (use command "sudo fdisk -l" )
[07:11] <onexused> I'm trying to connect to an NFS share.  I know I'm allowed through the firewall on the server, and there's no firewall on the client.  When I try to connect I get "Permission denied".  What am I doing wrong?
[07:11] <MISTERTibbs> sputnike, u might be ok. lemme think
[07:11] <sputnike> therealnanotube: hold on, plus it's not my primary drive at the moment, I assume that command will work for all drives?
[07:11] <Bllz> Hey all.  I cant seem to mount my FAT32 partition... i followed the instructions on the ubuntu help page, but that hasn't helped.  I own the partition as far as I can tell.  Also, I don't mind reformatting if need be
[07:11] <dibblego> unfo, I'm going to reboot and try again
[07:11] <therealnanotube> sputnike: yes, it will list all drives...
[07:12] <mundungus> Jude, nah am still googling it up,u know am connected to phone using my nokia as modem! the net is not that first
[07:12] <Bllz> so any help wouold be greatly appreciated
[07:12] <therealnanotube> sputnike: as long as they are actually connected and powered on :)
[07:12] <berent> Truman_ : I want to have the maximum comfort for a techie and economy
[07:12] <geekkit> im trying to connect to the files on my nokia phone via usb .. i found a page: http://olivierberger.com/weblog/index.php/2006/11/12/66-transfering-files-to-the-sony-ericsson-k610i-from-gnu-linux-through-usb-obex that walks through settings up obexfs  (e.g., adduser youuser fuse), then adding to fstab: /etc/fstab : obexfs#-u0 /media/phone fuse defaults,user 0 0, then mkdir /media/phone, hgrp fuse /media/phone, and finally chmod g+w /media/
[07:12] <geekkit> phone but when i click on the icon in nautilus i'm told i need super user permissions ... *or* setup permissions in udev ... i don't know how to set up the permissions for udev ...anyone know how to do this?
[07:12] <onexused> Bllz: Do you get any errors when you try mounting it?
[07:12] <mundungus> Jude,am using my nokia as modem!
[07:12] <MISTERTibbs> sputnike, double check this.  I think you have to use the windows partition manager to alter the set up.
[07:12] <Jude> k
[07:12] <varustah> can i make floating password dialog in xubuntu? onboard wont input them...
[07:12] <Bllz> onexused... yes i believe i do
[07:12] <Truman_> berent: Are you gonna SLI video cards?  What sort of RAM are you looking at?  Do you use IDE or SATA hard disks?
[07:12] <Bllz> what's the command to mount again? i'll try it real quick and let you konw what the output is
[07:13] <MISTERTibbs> sputnike, u can also find partition magic as a free download if u search on the net.
[07:13] <sputnike> therealnanotube: It says: "This doesn't look like a partition table"
[07:13] <therealnanotube> oh, wow... i guess that means something is really messed up there.
[07:13] <dampierd> any folks from down under?
[07:13] <berent> Truman_ : ge force , RAM-ddr3 atleast 1GB both pata and sata support also want wifi
[07:13] <onexused> Bllz: sudo mount <filesystem> <mount point> (where filesystem is something like /dev/sdb1 and mount point is something like /media/sdb1)
[07:13] <therealnanotube> sputnike: try booting into windows, and run a chkdisk on it
[07:14] <sputnike> MISTERTibbs: yeah the problem is, I want to install Vista on my drive again, but since running it last I used a 40gb hard drive as my primary, however Vista won't install on that drive, so I am wondering what the heck's going on...
[07:14] <sputnike> Hmm looks like I'll have to reinstall XP :(
[07:14] <therealnanotube> sputnike: ubuntu has some chkdisk-like tools on it too, but windows is less likely to mess up an ntfs partition.
[07:14] <Truman_> berent:  lol, have they even released ddr3 ram for motherboards yet?  I heard they were gonna, but I thought it was a bit further off
[07:14] <shiester_miester> sputnike, XP > Vista
[07:14] <sputnike> yeah I suppose
[07:14] <Bllz> onexused, wait... what goes in the <filesystem> part?
[07:14] <MISTERTibbs> sputnike, vista?  VISTA?  I'm officially out of this thread.  I only have XP and have NO plans to upgrade.  Good luck!
[07:14] <Bllz> sorry... someone walked me through this last time too... i'm a complete and utter noob
[07:15] <onexused> Bllz: what partition do you want to mount?
[07:15] <berent> Truman_ : me too not sure but does ddr2 will be upward compatible?
[07:15] <geekkit> anyone know how to set up udev permissions for usb under feisty?
[07:15] <Ubertastic> Jude: Same story.
[07:15] <Bllz> onexused:  it's sda3.  i only have one harddisk so whatever the default device is
[07:15] <Truman_> berent:  I doubt that the ddr2 slots will accept ddr3 ram whenever that finds its way to the market
[07:16] <sputnike> MISTERTibbs: heh, I have used Vista for a long time and am happy with it... I'm now sick of XP, and my job - I write applications in Visual Basic so I need to use Windows, but I run Ubuntu on my laptop. Sadly this senario sucks... Maybe my friend will lend me his drive to copy files accross, who knows.
[07:16] <Bllz> uh oh. onexused. i can't seem to send PMs!
[07:16] <berent> Truman_ ok lets keep it ddr2 then!
[07:16] <sputnike> meanwhile, looks like I'm using XP
[07:16] <Truman_> berent:  Aha, it looks like they've released a couple of boards
[07:16] <onexused> Bllz: >.<
[07:16] <sputnike> right see you all, I have an XP install to attend to. .
[07:16] <Truman_> berent: http://www.tomshardware.com/2007/06/05/pipe_dreams_six_p35-ddr3_motherboards_compared/
[07:16] <onexused> Bllz: /dev/sda3 would go first.
[07:16] <Bllz> onexused, lol you have AIM?
[07:17] <onexused> Bllz: Not lately.  I'm using gaim/pidgen right now
[07:17] <MISTERTibbs> sputnike, all I've read on Vista suggest serious issues with mounting other OS's, even Windows OS's!  Back up your backups!
[07:17] <Bllz> okay so sudo mount /dev/sda3?
[07:17] <Bllz> sorry no...
[07:17] <onexused> Bllz: what folder/directory do you want to mount it to?
[07:18] <Bllz> um. i guess in media/sda3
[07:18] <barnydan>  sudo mount /dev/sda3  /mnt/destination
[07:18] <berent> Truman_ : even that is ddr2
[07:18] <barnydan>  sudo mount /dev/sda3  /media/sda3
[07:18] <Ivis> Hello,i know this is not right chanle where ask ..... but i need a help wery much.Who listen a Dj tiesto songs ? please help abaout this
[07:18] <onexused> Bllz: If it's already created, "sudo mount /dev/sda3 /media/sda3"
[07:19] <Bllz> okay it looks like it succeeded silently...
[07:19] <Bllz> but i don't see an icon on my desktop
[07:19] <onexused> Bllz: Okay.  I don't know how to put one there.
[07:20] <bruenig> Bllz, look for it in /media/sda3
[07:20] <berent> Truman_ : here it is http://in.asus.com/products.aspx?l1=3&l2=11&l3=534 the P5KC is ultimate
[07:20] <mongolai> berent, If you go the intel route, you should get a mobo that has the new chipset (i think its P35) to future-proof yourself for the new core processors coming out.
[07:20] <therealnanotube> i have a little java plugin problem. please check out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=489128 for details. any thoughts/suggestions would be appreciated.
[07:20] <Bllz> oh wow... there it is
[07:20] <shiester_miester> bruenig, whast wrong with the word "folder"?
[07:20] <Bllz> i was able to open the directory, so i guess it's working?
[07:21] <berent> mongolai : but what about other features like ddr2 ddr3
[07:21] <bruenig> shiester_miester, what is a folder, it is an icon
[07:21] <shiester_miester> i thought it meant the same as "directory" ?
[07:21] <Truman_> berent: I bet those are crazy expensive
[07:21] <shiester_miester> like the "home folder"
[07:21] <onexused> Bllz: Looks like it.  Do you want it to mount automatically?
[07:21] <Bllz> so if i put stuff in that folder, it's on the partition and if i reinstall it should all be there?
[07:21] <Bllz> onexused, yes that would be great!
[07:21] <bruenig> shiester_miester, no it became that when guis had it as a folder and stupid people just said folder
[07:21] <Truman_> berent: I got a nice motherboard with the nvidia 680 chipset
[07:22] <shiester_miester> oooh ok
[07:22] <berent> Truman_ : which one
[07:22] <shiester_miester> because they used a little icon of a folder ;)
[07:22] <hende> ummm somehow i removed the tops of my windows where the close window x is how do i make it become visible again
[07:22] <Truman_> berent: umm
[07:22] <onexused> Bllz: You'll have to edit your fstab file.  $ sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[07:22] <mongolai> berent, most P35 boards support both ddr2 and 3, but only partly. I'd stick with ddr2 though because the net return of ddr3 is negligible
[07:22] <therealnanotube> bruenig, language evolves. it is basically a fact that 'folder' == 'directory' in common usage. no use fighting it. :)
[07:22] <bruenig> gksudo gedit
[07:22] <Truman_> berent: EVGA Nvidia 680i SE
[07:22] <berent> mongolai : are you sure?
[07:22] <onexused> bruenig: right.  I keep forgetting
[07:22] <Jude> does anyone know why does my azureus crash on startup??
[07:22] <barnydan> Directory is more linux style!
[07:23] <onexused> Bllz: gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
[07:23] <bruenig> people can use what they want, I am not that anal, but since he said folder/directory kind of reminded me of it
[07:23] <Bllz> onexused, it's open
[07:23] <Truman_> berent: Appears to be really good for SLI, got ddr2 800 ram
[07:23] <therealnanotube> bruenig: heh :)
[07:23] <Bllz> onexused, done
[07:23] <onexused> Bllz: Okay.  Hold on a second.
[07:24] <robby> bored
[07:24] <berent> Truman_ : true
[07:24] <mongolai> berent, no, not so much ;) But price is an issue, especially in the immeadiate future. If you want ddr3, then you should wait for it to become the new *de-facto* standard
[07:24] <hende> hello
[07:24] <robby> hi
[07:24] <Hitomaro> hey
[07:24] <hende> somehow i removed the task bar from my windows how do i get it back
[07:24] <berent> mongolai : i agree
[07:24] <Hitomaro> who was the person that asked me to get my system specs?
[07:24] <mongolai> Hitomaro, did you get that pastebin up?
[07:25] <onexused> Bllz: type "/dev/sda3" <tab> "/media/sda3" <tab> "auto" <tab> "umask=0000" <tab> "0 0"
[07:25] <onexused> Bllz: got it?
[07:25] <hende> !!!
[07:25] <Hitomaro> http://img73.imageshack.us/img73/8348/systemspecshitobd2.jpg
[07:25] <Truman_> berent:  I think it was only like $150, which seemed comparable to other boards in the same range; had great reviews, too
[07:25] <bruenig> ewww windows
[07:25] <Truman_> hende:  you mean in your ubuntu, or in windows itself?
[07:25] <Hitomaro> I know
[07:26] <robby> ?
[07:26] <onexused> Bllz: confirm, please?
[07:27] <Bllz> onexused. one second
[07:27] <mongolai> Hitomaro, was this a pre-built PC, and if so what make/model#
[07:27] <onexused> Bllz: ok
[07:27] <Hitomaro> not pre-built
[07:27] <Bllz> onexused, am i typing that in the console or in the fstab document?
[07:27] <Hitomaro> I buit it myself
[07:27] <Hitomaro> built*
[07:27] <onexused> Bllz: the fstab document
[07:28] <bruenig> man I forget how ugly windows is
[07:28] <Bllz> top line? does it matter where i type it?
[07:28] <mongolai> Hitomaro, and you downloaded the x86 version of ubuntu?
[07:28] <Hitomaro> yes
[07:28] <mongolai> hmmm
[07:28] <onexused> Bllz: I'd put it on the last line
[07:29] <onexused> Bllz: (a new line)
[07:29] <Bllz> onexused, done
[07:29] <Bllz> is there a tab betweent he last two zeros?
[07:29] <mongolai> Hitomaro, I'm looking up your motherboard now... I'll be back in a few minutes...
[07:30] <onexused> Bllz: a space
[07:30] <cellofellow> This may sound stupid, but how do I get it so that images are included in the file when I save an ODT file in OOo?
[07:30] <Hitomaro> It's an Asrock
[07:30] <onexused> Bllz: save it and close gedit.  When you reboot, it should mount automatically and be writable by regular users
[07:30] <Bllz> onexused:   okay done. so do i save and exit?
[07:31] <mongolai> Hitomaro, yea I know. I'm looking for any common linux-based issues with it
[07:31] <onexused> Bllz: yes.  When you reboot, it should mount and be writable by normal users.
[07:31] <Hitomaro> oh I figured that. :) thanks
[07:31] <Lattyware> Is there any way to stop me having to disable two of my three network devices at boot to get one to work?
[07:31] <Bllz> onexused, thank you!  so now anything i put in that particular folder goes to the partition?
[07:32] <onexused> Bllz: Yes.
[07:32] <Bllz> okay thank you!
[07:32] <onexused> Bllz: If you want to write to it now, you should remount it using the umask=0000 option. "sudo umount; sudo mount -o umask=0000 /dev/sda3 /media/sda3"
[07:32] <TheFuzzball> Hi, I have a really big issue with Ubuntu, I just started using Ubuntu rather than Kubuntu but whenever I right-click on the desktop and select Change Background Image, I wait for a couple of seconds and a window pops up for a millisecond and then goes
[07:33] <TheFuzzball> what can I do to fix this?
[07:33] <onexused> Bllz: no problem
[07:34] <TheFuzzball> hello?
[07:34] <mongolai> Hitomaro, this is one of the first links I've found. Doesn't look too promising so far: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=160230    lemme look around a bit more
[07:35] <onexused> I'm trying to connect to an NFS share.  I know I'm allowed through the firewall on the server, and there's no firewall on the client.  When I try to connect I get "Permission denied".  What am I doing wrong?
[07:35] <danfg> where does X store the current resolution setting? /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[07:36] <Hitomaro> mongolai, not promising at all. :(
[07:36] <Truman_> Hey, I've got a problem:  When I vnc into my desktop computer, it won't respond if it's running beryl, but works fine if it's running gnome.  Is there any way to get it to automatically switch window managers when I vnc in?
[07:36] <ryan8403> ok...where can I add my server's host name in the apache.conf file? I can't find it in there
[07:36] <danfg> Truman_: is windows being used anywhere?
[07:36] <ImLukeEkblad> Hi
[07:37] <ImLukeEkblad> Yes
[07:37] <ImLukeEkblad> 90% of people that use computers use windows
[07:37] <Truman_> danfg: Nope, Ubunto>Ubuntu for me; I can't speak for the rest of the world, tho
[07:37] <onexused> unfortunately
[07:37] <danfg> Truman_: ok

[07:38] <ninix> hi, im searching someone who use KDevelop

[07:38] <Truman_> or is there a way to get vnc to work from gnome > beryl?  because I see the original desktop, but it won't respond to my commands
[07:38] <onexused> Bllz: can you upload /etc/fstab to pastebin?
[07:38] <danfg> where is the screen resolution setting stored in ubuntu?
[07:39] <Lattyware> Is there any way to stop me having to disable two of my three network devices at boot to get one to work?

[07:39] <ImLukeEkblad> Um, I have Ubuntu, and when I installed it, i irased vista home premium and office 07.    So, whats better bout ubuntu since thats all I can use now?
[07:39] <onexused> !NFS
[07:39] <Hitomaro> I also had Kernel Panic
[07:39] <ubotu> nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[07:39] <Truman_> ImLukeEkblad: It's free
[07:39] <ImLukeEkblad> Ya, i know

[07:41] <James> hi all.  I love ubuntu, but it has bugs when i try to install it on a powerbook G4.  The powerbook G4 needs linux, can anyone recommend another distro i might like considering my enjoyment of Ubuntu?
[07:41] <mongolai> bjupton1, cool!! Glad it worked@
[07:41] <ImLukeEkblad> Ok
[07:41] <Hitomaro> how do I impliment that come mongolai?
[07:41] <Hitomaro> I really truely think thats the solution
[07:41] <ImLukeEkblad> Whats better about the OS,  I dont care if everyone makes fun of me and I dont care bout money.    So, whats better?
[07:42] <Bllz> onexcused, pastepin is www.pastebin.com?
[07:42] <mongolai> Hitomaro, is the onboard graphics card disabled it the BIOS?
[07:42] <T-Connect> I read that ATI drivers have some issue.
[07:42] <Truman_> ImLukeEkblad: Most programs can be installed and uninstalled with a simple command
[07:42] <Hitomaro> I have no idea
[07:42] <danfg> is 1280x1024 a valid screen resolution for vesa?
[07:42] <Truman_> ImLukeEkblad: It has a huge support base
[07:42] <ImLukeEkblad> ok
[07:42] <ImLukeEkblad> ok
[07:42] <Hitomaro> I don't even use my onboard graphics card
[07:42] <tank-man> do your own homework
[07:42] <Truman_> ImLukeEkblad: You can change anything about the OS that you want
[07:43] <ImLukeEkblad> Ok, how do I change the color of the task bar?  :)
[07:43] <mongolai> Hitomaro, do that first. You have a nice 7600 anyway!
[07:43] <Truman_> ImLukeEkblad: Provided that you know what you're doing; otherwise you can make it crash really easy
[07:43] <dudicus> what's up yall
[07:43] <ImLukeEkblad> ok
[07:43] <dudicus> crush it like a corner stone!
[07:43] <Hitomaro> how can I disable it?
[07:43] <dudicus> give me the reference
[07:43] <Truman_> ImLukeEkblad: You'd have to ask someone else about that; I'm just beginning to get used to Ubuntu myself
[07:43] <robby> LOL Bum Fights
[07:43] <Hitomaro> system bios?
[07:44] <ImLukeEkblad> ok
[07:44] <onexused> ImLukeEkblad: right click it > properties > background tab.  Check the radio button that says "solid color" and choose the color.  Click close.  (If you're using gnome)
[07:44] <mongolai> Hitomaro, I don't know exactly. Go into the CMOS/BIOS  settings when you reboot...
[07:44] <mongolai> Hitomaro, yea
[07:44] <maxsoft> hi all. how to see the folder installationn of an application? than k you
[07:44] <James> I like Ubuntu, but need to use another distro for another purpose.  Can anyone recommend a similar distro?
[07:44] <Bllz> onexcused, nevermind. i think i figured out the problem! typographical error :-)
[07:44] <onexused> James: PCLinuxOS is supposed to be easy to use, also.
[07:45] <mongolai> James, ubuntu is based on debian, so that would probably be the most similar
[07:45] <onexused> Bllz: glad to hear you fixed it.
[07:45] <James> okay, thanks
[07:45] <Fathefner> does anyone know about mbr grubs
[07:45] <Hitomaro> the thing is.. I think I have the same problem as the user who posted on the board, and some other user gave the solution which worked for the user who had the problem.
[07:45] <Hitomaro> :/
[07:45] <Fathefner> and how to remove them
[07:45] <danfg> i edited /etc/X11/xorg.conf and added "1280x1024" resolutions, but the option doesn't show up in System > Preferences > Screen Resolution even after restarting X. wtf else do i need?
[07:45] <Truman_> danfg: What graphics card do you have
[07:45] <mongolai> Hitomaro, well, at least that's promising, no?!
[07:45] <Hitomaro> :)
[07:45] <Bllz> onexcused. i'll check in if that doesnt fix it. lol
[07:46] <paganjew> danfg, are you using nvidia
[07:46] <Hitomaro> yeah but I don't know how to enter the code
[07:46] <Hitomaro> do I just press f6
[07:46] <danfg> Truman_: i'm running it under QEMU, it's set to vesa
[07:46] <T-Connect> Everyone read this? http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=735&num=1
[07:46] <Hitomaro> then enter that?
[07:46] <onexused> Bllz: Okay.
[07:46] <paganjew> T-Connect, why.
[07:46] <Truman_> danfg: What's physically installed on the computeR?
[07:47] <T-Connect> Talk about ATI issue.
[07:47] <mongolai> Hitomaro, first disable the on-board graphics in the BIOS, then just try the live-cd again.
[07:47] <paganjew> ok, i use nvidia not so relevent
[07:47] <danfg> Truman_: nvidia fx5200
[07:47] <Hitomaro> ok.. I'll try that.
[07:47] <Hitomaro> brb
[07:47] <Hitomaro> I hope
[07:47] <ImLukeEkblad> How do I got a higher resolution  that 1024 bye  768  ?
[07:47] <paganjew> danfg, me too
[07:47] <danfg> paganjew: yay
[07:47] <danfg> :)
[07:47] <Truman_> danfg: Did you install the nvidia-glx driver?
[07:48] <T-Connect> How fast the grphics with Nvidia?
[07:48] <paganjew> danfg, yay
[07:48] <T-Connect> On Linux
[07:48] <danfg> Truman_: the question is: would QEMU support it/know how to deal with it?
[07:48] <danfg> Truman_: i can install it, i've done it before once. ages ago
[07:48] <paganjew> i personally hope many of us will begin to use open source gpu but that will only happen in a few years
[07:48] <Truman_> danfg:  That's a very good question; I don't have any experience with QEMU, but if it's virtualizing all of ubuntu, I dunno why not
[07:48] <berent> Truman_ what about this?
[07:48] <ImLukeEkblad> Guys.   Question:    How do I got a higher resolution  that 1024 bye  768  ?        <<<
[07:49] <berent> Truman_ what about this : http://www.ciao.co.uk/ASUS_P5B_MX_WiFi_AP__6623659#productdetail
[07:49] <danfg> Truman_: ok i'll install it then, if my computer explodes, i'll blame you!
[07:49] <Truman_> danfg: Alright; just warn me before you start blaming, and I'll change my nick
[07:49] <danfg> will do
[07:49] <hende> ok can anyone help me with beryl
[07:50] <ImLukeEkblad> I can'
[07:50] <Truman_> berent: Lemme look
[07:50] <defrysk> hende, /j #ubuntu-effects
[07:50] <hende> i have the taskbar which is the manager right how do i get the actual program
[07:50] <T-Connect> Is Ubuntu made to run on Core 2 Duo only?
[07:50] <onexused> ImLukeEkblad: Have you added 1280x1024 to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[07:50] <ImLukeEkblad> um
[07:50] <hende> ?
[07:51] <bruenig> T-Connect, it can run on nearly any processor
[07:51] <ImLukeEkblad> Go to the package maneger and type beryl
[07:51] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, copy /etc/X11/xorg.conf to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ and provide the link here so others can look at it
[07:51] <Truman_> berent: It looks alright, only two slots for RAM
[07:51] <hende> done that it didnt help
[07:51] <paganjew> does anyone use sqlite for anything, i mean personally use it
[07:51] <Vaske_Car> how to install QuickTime 7 plugin for Firefox?
[07:51] <T-Connect> I don't think Linux run as fast as XP on the grpahics.
[07:51] <ImLukeEkblad> mongolai:    Huh?
[07:52] <bruenig> Vaske_Car, sudo apt-get install mozilla-mplayer
[07:52] <onexused> /quit: Leaving
[07:52] <onexused> oops
[07:52] <paganjew> T-Connect, i use the command line most of the time anyways
[07:52] <bruenig> T-Connect, you are wrong
[07:52] <shiester_miester> hey guys, is it easy to print from ubuntu with a canon pixma ip1000?
[07:52] <paganjew> T-Connect, and i agree with bruenig
[07:52] <Vaske_Car> bruenig, I have that but it does not play, file have extension .mp4 and on the site they said that it need quicktime 7
[07:52] <bruenig> Vaske_Car, link
[07:53] <shiester_miester> ive never printed anything from ubuntu, how do i go about setting it up?
[07:53] <T-Connect> How come DOOM 3 run fine on XP and not on Linux?
[07:53] <shiester_miester> T-Connect, doom 3 runs fine for me
[07:53] <bruenig> shiester_miester, system>administration>printing
[07:53] <shiester_miester> actually it runs better :P
[07:53] <paganjew> T-Connect, because it is somewhat emulated
[07:53] <bruenig> shiester_miester, or localhost:631 in browser
[07:53] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, hit alt+f2. In the prompt enter gksudo gedit   then enter your password, if it asks.  Then with gedit open /etc/X11/xorg.conf....
[07:53] <shiester_miester> paganjew, no you use ID's linux binaries
[07:53] <shiester_miester> ID software made different binaries for it specifically to run on linux
[07:53] <dannyx84> hi
[07:53] <ImLukeEkblad> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28758/
[07:54] <paganjew> shiester_miester, even if it is ID's linux binaries it is meant to run on windows and i think it makes a difference.
[07:54] <shiester_miester> no, its not
[07:54] <shiester_miester> they are binaries made SPECIFICALLY for linux
[07:54] <shiester_miester> made to run on linux
[07:54] <shiester_miester> its not emulated
[07:54] <T-Connect> Doom 3 doesn't get normal speed with Linux here. I had to use 800x600 or under to get the speed on XP with 1280x1024
[07:54] <shiester_miester> not using wine
[07:54] <paganjew> shiester_miester, i understand, so what are they optimized like they are on windows
[07:54] <shiester_miester> im assuming so
[07:55] <paganjew> shiester_miester, ass out of me and you
[07:55] <shiester_miester> T-Connect, thats unfortunate
[07:55] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, lol. No, follow the instructions about 20 lines up^^ let me nkow when you've gotten that far.
[07:55] <shiester_miester> paganjew, what?
[07:55] <paganjew> assume = ass out of you and me
[07:55] <bruenig> T-Connect, that is a bad port, that is not the fault of the operating systems kernel which is far more supportive of lower end hardware than windows is
[07:55] <shiester_miester> oh
[07:55] <shiester_miester> lol
[07:55] <shiester_miester> thast so cheesy -_-
[07:55] <bruenig> that abbreviation doesn't even work
[07:55] <bruenig> aoofyam
[07:55] <Jud2> my azureus keeps crashing on startup
[07:55] <paganjew> exactly the lower end stuff, linux is just as good
[07:55] <Truman_> Does anyone have any ideas for this:   When I vnc into my desktop computer, it won't respond if it's running beryl, but works fine if it's running gnome.  Is there any way to get it to automatically switch window managers when I vnc in?
[07:55] <berent> Truman_ does any graphic card has a inbuild TV tuner in it
[07:56] <Truman_> berent:  I have no idea there
[07:56] <shiester_miester> bruenig, the "add printer" dialog doesnt have my printer model in it :(
[07:56] <bruenig> not just as good, far far better
[07:56] <bruenig> shiester_miester, canon is near impossible from what I understand
[07:56] <shiester_miester> =(
[07:56] <bruenig> bruenig, hp is good though, go get one
[07:56] <T-Connect> So Doom 3 port for Linux is bad. I see now. Maybe I need to install the game on XP then.
[07:56] <ImLukeEkblad> mongolai:    k?
[07:56] <berent> Truman_ i heard some USB is there that can do it
[07:56] <paganjew> Truman_, sure because you can change the window manager in the command line you should give it a script before signing in
[07:56] <shiester_miester> i have an ip1000, would it stand a chance of working if i chose ip2000 from the list?
[07:56] <ImLukeEkblad> mongolai: i'm that far now
[07:56] <shiester_miester> or something else altogether?
[07:56] <Jud2> 
[07:57] <bruenig> linuxprinting.org
[07:57] <robby> lol
[07:57] <T-Connect> Thanks for clear this up.
[07:57] <robby> port
[07:57] <shiester_miester> theres nothing bad about it
[07:57] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, now copy and paste that text into a new pastebin. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/     provide the new link here.
[07:57] <Truman_> paganjew: How do you open the terminal if I can't interact with the remote computer while it's in beryl?
[07:57] <ImLukeEkblad> wait
[07:57] <paganjew> Truman_, can you sign in ssh?
[07:57] <ImLukeEkblad> I opened that text thing
[07:57] <ImLukeEkblad> then i paist that stuff there?
[07:57] <Truman_> paganjew: Ah, I dunno
[07:58] <paganjew> Truman_, that would be a way
[07:58] <Smerity> Truman_, it may also be worth trying to VNC into it as I think that's on for Ubuntu by default
[07:58] <bur[n] er> vnc is not on by default
[07:58] <Smerity> My mistake ^_^
[07:58] <paganjew> Truman_, if you can make an id that is running metacity or whatever for vnc only that would be a way
[07:58] <bur[n] er> installed, not on :)
[07:58] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, Yea, you opened /etc/X11/xorg.conf? if you did, copy and paste that into a new pastebin  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ and provide the link here
[07:59] <ImLukeEkblad> I opened what????
[07:59] <bruenig> lol
[07:59] <Jude> hello
[07:59] <bruenig> hey jude
[07:59] <paganjew> Truman_, you there?
[07:59] <Vaske_Car> bruenig, check pm
[07:59] <Truman_> paganjew: Sorry, yeah
[08:00] <bruenig> don't make it bad
[08:00] <paganjew> Truman_, so what about the special id for vnc login?
[08:00] <bruenig> Vaske_Car, nothing
[08:00] <ImLukeEkblad> mongolai:  wait,   All i did was opened that text thing, thats it
[08:00] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, do like you did before but instead of pasting the file name to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/  paste the *contents* of the file
[08:00] <Truman_> paganjew: I was reading up on how to SSH in; how would I go about setting up a special id?  I thought it just went straight to whatever was currently running on the remote computer
[08:00] <ImLukeEkblad> there are no contents
[08:01] <robby> Just write a script for ImLuke to run that pipes the data from the file to a txtor something
[08:01] <ImLukeEkblad> its a blank page
[08:01] <Hitomaro> :(
[08:01] <paganjew> Truman_, when you sign in you would ask for a special id, for instance create an id like "VNC" on your computer for sigining in vnc style
[08:01] <paganjew> Truman_, look at SSH its worth it
[08:01] <Hitomaro> mongolai
[08:01] <mongolai> Hitomaro, no good so far?
[08:01] <Hitomaro> I still get the same errors
[08:02] <Hitomaro> http://img474.imageshack.us/img474/6774/125errorshitood3.jpg
[08:02] <Truman_> paganjew: Alright; is SSH just command-line stuff, or does it do the graphical interface, too?
[08:02] <bur[n] er> paganjew: there is no user for vnc
[08:02] <Hitomaro> thats a screenshot of my errors
[08:02] <mongolai> Hitomaro, you should download the alternate cd and try that. then we can get X working later.
[08:02] <paganjew> Truman_, it is command line and it does GUI stuff graphical user interface stuff ie gnome
[08:02] <bur[n] er> tunnelling vnc through ssh is a good idea :)
[08:02] <mongolai> Hitomaro, I'm looking at that...NOW
[08:02] <ImLukeEkblad> :-/
[08:02] <paganjew> Truman_, bur[n] er is right
[08:02] <bur[n] er> Hitomaro: try the "check cd for errors" ?
[08:02] <Truman_> paganjew: K, cool .. I think I found an article on the internets that'll help me out
[08:03] <paganjew> Truman_, good it may take a while to set it up, its a little tricky
[08:03] <shiester_miester> hey guys, what was the name of the software that u can use to run windows within linux?
[08:03] <Hitomaro> lol I labeled by image "Errors Hito" now it's "errorshit"
[08:03] <T-Connect> Doom 3 and Quake 4 mpdemo is remove. I'm moving those onto xp.
[08:03] <bruenig> !virtualization
[08:03] <ubotu> There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu or !qvm86), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications
[08:03] <macogw> shiester_miester: virtualbox
[08:04] <T-Connect> =D
[08:04] <mongolai> bur[n] er, Hitomaro has a well documented problem with his motherboard
[08:04] <shiester_miester> macogw, thanks
[08:04] <paganjew> shiester_miester, qemu, vmware, virtual box, wine
[08:04] <bruenig> there are tons
[08:04] <Truman_> aha, and another for vnc over ssh .. I love the internet
[08:04] <shiester_miester> paganjew, i meant run the windows operating system
[08:04] <bruenig> vmware virtualbox, qemu, virtualpc
[08:04] <shiester_miester> not just run windows applications
[08:04] <paganjew> Truman_, :)
[08:04] <ImLukeEkblad> Guys
[08:04] <macogw> sorry about the freakout earlier guys
[08:04] <anandanbu> How to install and run the compiz-fusion
[08:04] <ImLukeEkblad> Waiting...
[08:04] <bruenig> anandanbu, #ubuntu-effects
[08:04] <shiester_miester> anandanbu, ask in #opencompositing
[08:04] <Hitomaro> I think the solution was in that thread
[08:04] <T-Connect> Anything neww comming to Ubuntu?
[08:04] <shiester_miester> bruenig, ubuntu effects isnt compiz-fusion, doesnt it use an older version of compiz?
[08:05] <paganjew> compiz such a waiste of cpu
[08:05] <paganjew> owell just my preferences
[08:05] <shiester_miester> paganjew, no way, its got so many useful features
[08:05] <paganjew> shiester_miester, yes ?
[08:05] <ImLukeEkblad> Is anyone still helping me?
[08:05] <shiester_miester> some of them are just useless eye candy, but some are really good
[08:05] <bruenig> shiester_miester, ubuntu-effects is anything that deals with destop effects
[08:05] <bruenig> desktop*
[08:05] <anandanbu> shiester_miester: but that doesn't help me out
[08:05] <paganjew> shiester_miester, for instance?
[08:05] <shiester_miester> oh ok
[08:05] <Ivis> hi, i know this is not right chanel to ask but i need a help please.... i need a people who listen dj tiesto
[08:05] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, just a minute
[08:05] <ImLukeEkblad> ok
[08:05] <shiester_miester> anandanbu, if you ask them, they will help you
[08:05] <bruenig> I still use beryl and probably will for quite some time
[08:05] <macogw> i was having the segfaultiness for hours about a month ago and the ubiquity people told me to redo it and get logs with --debug for ubiquity, but when i tried, it went so *death* that i got told i didnt have permission to use vi or gedit or nano to look at the logs, and no way to save or copy them or anything in order to report the bug with any useful sort of info, so there was a very annoying circle ensuing
[08:06] <shiester_miester> paganjew, like the ability to invert the colours of a window...i use that all the time
[08:06] <paganjew> shiester_miester, lol
[08:06] <shiester_miester> paganjew, being able to have an unlimited amount of desktop space
[08:06] <paganjew> shiester_miester, i like bash shell more than anything
[08:06] <bruenig> unlimited desktop space?
[08:06] <shiester_miester> being able to group windows together into a single tabbed window
[08:06] <anandanbu> shiester_miester: who should i ask
[08:06] <paganjew> shiester_miester, just my preferences
[08:06] <shiester_miester> well ok not UNLIMITED
[08:06] <shiester_miester> but a freaking LOT
[08:06] <bruenig> you have the same amount with or without effects
[08:06] <shiester_miester> true
[08:06] <bruenig> in fact without effects you can have much more
[08:07] <shiester_miester> good point, bruenig
[08:07] <bruenig> you can like 12 workspaces
[08:07] <Hitomaro> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=399362&highlight=775i65GV
[08:07] <macogw> negative and scale are some of the awesomeness of desktop effects
[08:07] <shiester_miester> uhh you can have heaps more than that anyway
[08:07] <paganjew> shiester_miester, its a matter of control and the command line can do it better and faster than nautilus, etc.
[08:07] <Hitomaro> hey mongolai
[08:07] <macogw> i think you can have up to 24 or 32 with desktop effects
[08:07] <macogw> not just 12
[08:07] <Hitomaro> I think thats the solution
[08:07] <shiester_miester> yeah scale is great
[08:07] <Hitomaro> whatever "todoporron" wrote
[08:07] <bruenig> macogw, you would be able to have an equal amount, but for the cube, you need four yes
[08:07] <shiester_miester> paganjew, yeah except on the command line...you are on a command line.  good luck using things that need a mouse
[08:07] <bruenig> command line is amazing, I use that more than about anything
[08:07] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, ok, hit alt+f2. in the prompt copy and paste this:     gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:08] <macogw> negative is great for people (like me) who think white backgrounds (like on websites) are evil and feel too much like staring at a lightbulb
[08:08] <mongolai> Hitomaro, here in this channel!
[08:08] <mongolai> ?
[08:08] <shiester_miester> although you pretty much have to use the command line in linux anyway
[08:08] <Hitomaro> hey todd
[08:08] <Hitomaro> lol
[08:08] <shiester_miester> hey just thinking on that...why hasn't nobody ever tried to improve the command line?
[08:08] <bruenig> command line is so much better than no command line
[08:08] <bruenig> imiprove, how?
[08:08] <shiester_miester> its like the most commonly used feature of the whole OS
[08:08] <Yasumoto> ... improve it?
[08:08] <shiester_miester> and yet its just the same as its always been
[08:08] <macogw> because the command line is already awesome
[08:08] <paganjew> shiester_miester, they have there are a number of projects that use the command line with gnome
[08:08] <bur[n] er> shiester_miester: it doesn't get improved all the time?
[08:09] <macogw> most of what you use on it isnt part of the command line, it's just the command line interface of a myriad number of programs
[08:09] <bruenig> shiester_miester, how can you improve on it, what else can you do
[08:09] <Hitomaro> I don't see todd anywhere
[08:09] <Hitomaro> ..
[08:09] <Yasumoto> 23:08:31  shiester_miester: hey just thinking on that...why hasn't nobody ever tried to improve the command line?
[08:09] <shiester_miester> bruenig, i dunno :P im not one of those people who implements radical ideas
[08:09] <paganjew> shiester_miester, the cli with gnome is really unbeatable in my opinion
[08:09] <mongolai> Hitomaro, but you think you've found a solution?
[08:09] <Yasumoto> sry X_X
[08:09] <Hitomaro> I don't know how to execute it
[08:09] <bruenig> shiester_miester, the command line is so straight forward and simple, I can't imagine what else you can do
[08:09] <Yasumoto> i meant
[08:10] <shiester_miester> i dunno
[08:10] <Yasumoto> it's the kind of thing that grows on you, and makes more sense after use
[08:10] <shiester_miester> well think about the difference in window managers between like, windows 95 and ubuntu with compiz-fusion
[08:10] <Yasumoto> at first, i had no idea how to use anything, but eventually I realized how different commands can be used together and such
[08:10] <bruenig> bash might could use some advances like fall through case statements and stuff so you don't have to use work arounds like nested case statements in for loops and what not, but the shell itself is amazing
[08:10] <anandanbu> how do install and run compiz-fusion in ubuntu 7.04
[08:10] <paganjew> shiester_miester, i use gnome-core and with gnome-terminal for an awesome experience - at least how i see it
[08:10] <ImLukeEkblad> mongolai: what do I do with all the text?
[08:10] <shiester_miester> and then think about the differences between ms-dos command line and ubuntu command line...there isnt a huge amount of difference in functionality
[08:10] <bruenig> shiester_miester, windows managers are pointless
[08:11] <shiester_miester> jeez guys, im not knocking the terminal
[08:11] <bur[n] er> shiester_miester: there is tooo!!!
[08:11] <bruenig> !codecs > Vaske_Car
[08:11] <bruenig> you have tabs
[08:11] <bruenig> you have color
[08:11] <bruenig> you have tab completion
[08:11] <bur[n] er> shiester_miester: tab-completion, colors, better apps...  screen, ssh
[08:11] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, now copy and paste that to a new pastebin here :   http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[08:11] <shiester_miester> true, i didnt say its identical
[08:11] <bruenig> you have what amounts to a full fledged interpreted language almost
[08:11] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, be sure to provide the link here
[08:11] <shiester_miester> but compare the difference between the user interfaces and there is MASSIVE difference
[08:11] <shiester_miester> and there is less so in command lines
[08:11] <paganjew> shiester_miester, tab completion, and built-ins make the 2 almost completely different
[08:11] <bruenig> gui is pointless and wasteful
[08:12] <matt__> bruenig: you have tab completion, and can have colors, in the dos command line.
[08:12] <oscarello> hi guys, is there anybody from Finland here? I want to ask you some questions...
[08:12] <bruenig> it is the most wasteful thing that exists
[08:12] <bur[n] er> shiester_miester: i'd argue there are huge ;)  being someone that uses a term on a daily basis
[08:12] <shiester_miester> bruenig, thats a bit of an exaggeration...
[08:12] <bur[n] er> shiester_miester: you think it's less because you use a gui everyday
[08:12] <paganjew> :)
[08:12] <shiester_miester> bur[n] er, you cant use linux and not have to use the terminal on a daily basis :P
[08:12] <bruenig> shiester_miester, what good is it, graphics is good, I like graphics but as an interface I hardly use it
[08:12] <matt__> and pretty much everything that can be done in shell can be done in batch files.
[08:12] <bruenig> hardly
[08:12] <ImLukeEkblad> mongolai:      http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28759/    There we go
[08:12] <paganjew> its a matter of automation shiester_miester
[08:13] <matt__> the difference is that linux lets you do anything that can be done on the system from a shell, which ISN'T possible in windows.
[08:13] <bruenig> matt__, you can write an entire package manager in bash
[08:13] <matt__> or zsh.  :)
[08:13] <bur[n] er> matt__: but it's a pain in the ass to set ;)  plus, in Ubuntu, we can just type "firefox blahblah" from a term and it runs... or "<insertanyapp>" where on windows you cannot unless it's in your path, and nothing is every in your path that's worth $.02
[08:13] <shiester_miester> yeah bruenig, maybe for you, but for almost everyone else who isnt a pro at [insert OS here] , you really do need an intuitive way of interacting, and command lines are NOT intuitive, at all
[08:13] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, ok great! Now lemme look at that for a minute!
[08:13] <bruenig> mkdir is pretty intuitive
[08:13] <bruenig> make directory
[08:14] <bur[n] er> godlygeek: you beat me to my point ;)
[08:14] <Hitomaro> How do I "Edit your /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist file:"
[08:14] <Anubis> does ubuntu support usb wireless cards?
[08:14] <shiester_miester> its only intuitive after you know about it
[08:14] <shiester_miester> and thats kinda not what the definition of intuitive is
[08:14] <paganjew> the cli interface is intuitive but its much more sensitive than most people are ready for
[08:14] <bur[n] er> Hitomaro: "gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist"
[08:14] <shiester_miester> command lines require you to already know what you want before you do it
[08:14] <olkalau> shiester_miester, can you please help me with installing a scanner. Model Benq Scanner 5000BL. Im running Ubuntu 6.06
[08:14] <paganjew> shiester_miester, man and info pages
[08:14] <Hitomaro> how do I get there?
[08:14] <godlygeek> bur[n] er: you can make dos less shitty by setting your path well.  granted, it is never as useful as a real terminal, but it isn't useless like a lot of people think.
[08:14] <paganjew> shiester_miester, the web
[08:15] <shiester_miester> paganjew, how do you get a man page for something that you dont know what its called?
[08:15] <bruenig> shiester_miester, gui isn't intuitive
[08:15] <Hitomaro> I'm completely new to linux
[08:15] <godlygeek> paganjew: apropos
[08:15] <paganjew> apropos
[08:15] <bruenig> shiester_miester, what the hell is File
[08:15] <paganjew> godlygeek, exactly
[08:15] <paganjew> :)
[08:15] <bruenig> shiester_miester, file>quit, what the hell is that
[08:15] <bruenig> why is it file>quit
[08:15] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, you are using the on-board graphics controller. You haven't installed a different graphics card?
[08:15] <bruenig> what does file have to do with quit
[08:15] <godlygeek> paganjew: i meant to send that last one to shiester_miester ... *shrug*
[08:15] <shiester_miester> bruenig, there are components of it that arent, of course, but overall its far more so than a command line where there is NOTHING to go by
[08:15] <Hitomaro> bur[n] er
[08:15] <bur[n] er> godlygeek: point taken :)  I still can't work my way around a DOS term like I can a gnome-term
[08:15] <ImLukeEkblad> mongolai: nope,
[08:16] <Hitomaro> where do I have to be in order to execute that
[08:16] <bruenig> shiester_miester, it isn't intuitive at all
[08:16] <shiester_miester> bah
[08:16] <paganjew> godlygeek, its all the same, people get the wrong idea about the cli so i am all into getting converts however its done
[08:16] <bur[n] er> Hitomaro: alt+f2
[08:16] <godlygeek> shiester_miester: you're wrong.  man, apropos, which, etc are your best friends.
[08:16] <shiester_miester> so why does everyone like using them?
[08:16] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, Do you have a wide-screen monitor?
[08:16] <olkalau> shiester_miester, can you help?
[08:16] <bruenig> shiester_miester, double click? seriously?
[08:16] <bruenig> shiester_miester, what is this double click
[08:16] <bur[n] er> Hitomaro: if you have no gui and only term, you can use nano instead of gedit
[08:16] <Jude> can anyone tell me some good torrent clients??
[08:16] <bruenig> Jude, utorrent
[08:16] <bur[n] er> Jude: deluge-torrent!!!
[08:16] <Anoninon> Jude: Get wine + utorrent.
[08:16] <ImLukeEkblad> Mongolai:  Yesh,  Thats the problem, cuz i'm use to higher wider rez
[08:16] <shiester_miester> why is it that every single popular OS spends a lot of time working on the UI?
[08:16] <bur[n] er> Jude: getdeb.net has deluge .deb files
[08:16] <hanasaki> trying to write an ISO using right click and wirte to disk... nautilus is saying "error writting to disk" there are no details shown
[08:16] <Hitomaro> I'll try that
[08:16] <olkalau> paganjew, can you please help me with installing a scanner. Model Benq Scanner 5000BL. Im running Ubuntu 6.06
[08:16] <shiester_miester> if the command-line is so much more intuitive, they should just use that instead, right?
[08:16] <ImLukeEkblad> mongolai: hold on, i need to brush my teeth,  brb
[08:16] <Hitomaro> brb
[08:17] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, ok
[08:17] <paganjew> shiester_miester, because the sparkle sells but it isn't really useful
[08:17] <shiester_miester> i know! lets make a release of ubuntu that is just a command line
[08:17] <bur[n] er> shiester_miester: becaust it's the 21st century :)
[08:17] <godlygeek> i barely use GUI's...  i use gui's exclusively for webbrowsing and instant messaging.
[08:17] <paganjew> shiester_miester, bad ass
[08:17] <godlygeek> shiester_miester: there is one.  server.
[08:17] <bur[n] er> shiester_miester: ubuntu-server
[08:17] <olkalau> paganjew, can you please help me with installing a scanner. Model Benq Scanner 5000BL. Im running Ubuntu 6.06
[08:17] <Anoninon> godlygeek: what irc client do you use ?
[08:17] <shiester_miester> no, its because most people need to use their computers! and they cant if its just a command line
[08:17] <godlygeek> irssi
[08:17] <bruenig> shiester_miester, that means nothing, either something is intuitive or it isn't whether OSes work on it means nothing
[08:17] <paganjew> shiester_miester, or what used to be nubuntu
[08:17] <Lo_Pan> irssi
[08:17] <Anoninon> same here
[08:17] <hanasaki> how do i burn an iso under gnome
[08:17] <hanasaki> ?
[08:17] <bruenig> shiester_miester, linux has the flashiest gui out there and it is bottom of the barrel
[08:17] <godlygeek> shiester_miester: i do much more in the terminal than i do in the gui.  gui's are so slow.
[08:17] <bur[n] er> hanasaki: double-click it ;)
[08:18] <Anoninon> hanasaki: use cdrecord from the command line : google cdrecord burn iso
[08:18] <olkalau> paganjew, can you please help me with installing a scanner. Model Benq Scanner 5000BL. Im running Ubuntu 6.06
[08:18] <defrysk> hanasaki, right click the iso select burn to disk
[08:18] <hanasaki> bur[n] er: that opens the archive manager
[08:18] <shiester_miester> bruenig, but thats not because of the gui, thats because of the popularity and ubiquity of windows
[08:18] <bur[n] er> wtf, cdrecord from command line?!??!?!  that's ridonkulous
[08:18] <paganjew> hanasaki, just right click and it should let you burn it, or use cdrecord in the command line :)
[08:18] <bruenig> shiester_miester, that is my response to you then
[08:18] <hanasaki> defrysk: that gives "error writting to disk"
[08:18] <bur[n] er> hanasaki: right click, write to cd ;)
[08:18] <bruenig> cdrecord name.iso
[08:18] <bruenig> yeah hard
[08:18] <bruenig> ooh
[08:18] <bur[n] er> hanasaki: my bad, depends on your association
[08:18] <olkalau> shiester_miester, can you please help me with installing a scanner. Model Benq Scanner 5000BL. Im running Ubuntu 6.06
[08:18] <hanasaki> hehe bur[n] er
[08:18] <Anoninon> bur[n] er: not really, it's the best way to burn cds IMHO.
[08:18] <shiester_miester> olkalau, no, i cant
[08:18] <kkathman> is there any way in evolution to change the color scheme ?
[08:18] <bur[n] er> cdrecord gives no pretty ouput or other things that people expect
[08:18] <shiester_miester> olkalau, i dont know how to install scanners :P
[08:18] <defrysk> hanasaki, if its a rewritable cdrdao blank and try again
[08:18] <hanasaki> well ithink there is something misconfigured... since i get the error on writting...;
[08:18] <bur[n] er> kkathman: your gtk theme
[08:19] <Anoninon> I'm pretty sure the GUI versions use cdrecord or other CLI tools as their backend anyhow.
[08:19] <shiester_miester> for some reason nobody has mentioned the fact that this is all way OT
[08:19] <shiester_miester> why is that?
[08:19] <olkalau> paganjew, can you please help me with installing a scanner. Model Benq Scanner 5000BL. Im running Ubuntu 6.06
[08:19] <bur[n] er> hanasaki: you could try gnomebaker or k3b
[08:19] <kkathman> bur[n] er:  without changing the theme ??
[08:19] <godlygeek> If anyone is interested, an article about how much easier it is to learn to use a commandline than a gui: http://www.osnews.com/story.php/6282/The-Command-Line--The-Best-Newbie-Interface/page1/
[08:19] <bur[n] er> kkathman: nope
[08:19] <kkathman> ahh ok
[08:19] <paganjew> olkalau, you want to check out xsane
[08:19] <shiester_miester> usually i get told off for discussing something OT pretty much straight away :P
[08:19] <bur[n] er> shiester_miester: it's late ;)
[08:20] <paganjew> godlygeek, ty i already know it but its good to have references
[08:20] <godlygeek> shiester_miester: it's not really OT...  it's discussing the relative strengths and weakness of ubuntu, which seems ontopic to me.
[08:20] <olkalau> paganjew, Can i get Xsane to run any scanner or i have to get a model specific?
[08:20] <Anoninon> I setup remote desktop on Ubuntu 6.06 , now I'm trying to connect to it on another Ubuntu 6.06, but it's not working. I get no errors. the command line tools just set there.
[08:20] <defrysk> godlygeek, its off topic
[08:20] <bur[n] er> olkalau: check out "flegita" it's a gnomeified scan utility
[08:20] <godlygeek> defrysk: why?
[08:20] <paganjew> olkalau, you need a driver for the scanner
[08:20] <shiester_miester> godlygeek, yeah thats a good point, although we were really arguing about guis vs command lines
[08:20] <shiester_miester> but anyway
[08:20] <defrysk> godlygeek, nothing is being discussed here , this is a help channel
[08:20] <shiester_miester> arguing about arguing is definitely OT ;)
[08:20] <macogw> olkalau: a lot of 'em will work.  hp print/scan/copy are a good choice if youre looking to buy a scanner
[08:20] <bur[n] er> olkalau: short answer about xsane, yes it should work
[08:21] <bruenig> it is offtopic for sure
[08:21] <paganjew> macogw, he already has one
[08:21] <Anoninon> remote desktop ! anyone here used it successfully !?
[08:21] <godlygeek> ah, fair enough.  on that note, anyone know of a way to be notified when the backlight turns on or off?
[08:21] <shiester_miester> ok now back to my original question, which of those ways of running linux in windows would you guys recommend as being superior?
[08:21] <bruenig> so come to OT
[08:21] <olkalau> paganjew, the driver it came with was for windows
[08:21] <shiester_miester> wait...i mean running windows in linux
[08:21] <macogw> paganjew: i just um walked in
[08:21] <godlygeek> shiester_miester: vmplayer
[08:21] <shiester_miester> that sounds like a media player, lol
[08:21] <bruenig> shiester_miester, they are all very similar
[08:21] <defrysk> shiester_miester, also off topic
[08:21] <Ayabara> anyone using the Strigi search in Gnome?
[08:21] <shiester_miester> yes yes, ok
[08:21] <bur[n] er> shiester_miester: virtualbox is fast and easy... vmware works well too, but it's more proprietary and less free, though bridged networking via vmware is uber easy
[08:21] <macogw> paganjew: i was on #ubuntu-installer explaining all the issues ive had and asking if there's any other debugging anything i can do to figure out wtf is wrong
[08:22] <gordonjcp> I've never got a scanner to work in Linux yet
[08:22] <gordonjcp> but then again
[08:22] <paganjew> shiester_miester, it makes me feel very sad that you want to run linux in windows
[08:22] <Vaske_Car> is there a way to manipulate with .PSD files in Ubuntu?
[08:22] <bur[n] er> shiester_miester: qemu is slow and to be avoided... even with the kqemu kernel
[08:22] <shiester_miester> paganjew, i dont
[08:22] <paganjew> Vaske_Car, gimp
[08:22] <bur[n] er> Vaske_Car: gimp?
[08:22] <macogw> Vaske_Car: is that photoshop?
[08:22] <shiester_miester> paganjew, i want to run windows in linux
[08:22] <Anoninon> macogw: yes
[08:22] <macogw> Vaske_Car: if its a photoshop file, gimp
[08:22] <hanasaki> gnomebaker says "Cannot open SCSI driver!"
[08:22] <gordonjcp> a) I've never tried very hard to get a scanner to work in Linux, and b) I'm not sure my scanner works at all
[08:22] <Vaske_Car> GIMP can not edit them, it only open the.
[08:22] <paganjew> macogw, no its gimp but yes its like photoshop but better
[08:22] <Anoninon> Be warned, the gimp may not show your PSD correctly.
[08:22] <Vaske_Car> Its PhotoShop yes
[08:22] <gordonjcp> Vaske_Car: yes it can
[08:23] <bur[n] er> shiester_miester: paganjew: running windows in linux is sad too :)
[08:23] <Jakobsen> Oh my.. When I start xserver-xgl, it starts with a wrong keyboard layout, and the superkeys does not work :(
[08:23] <gordonjcp> Vaske_Car: if it's CMYK you may have problems
[08:23] <macogw> paganjew: no gimp uses .xcf
[08:23] <shiester_miester> bur[n] er, its sadder when i cant PRINT
[08:23] <paganjew> Vaske_Car, then saveas something else xcf
[08:23] <gordonjcp> Vaske_Car: but if it can open them, it can edit them
[08:23] <hanasaki> brb
[08:23] <Protege> Is there anyone here who is experiencing this problem with firefox? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/86477
[08:23] <paganjew> GIMP
[08:23] <Anoninon> God this is like #i-am-a-linux-newbie
[08:23] <shiester_miester> bur[n] er, windows can print, linux currently does not
[08:23] <bur[n] er> shiester_miester: get an hp ;)
[08:23] <jerbear> i'm trying to add a script to /etc/acpi/resume.d but it fails because the X display isn't available. it's running after everything else. what could be the problem?
[08:23] <gordonjcp> Vaske_Car: you need to save in compatibility modde
[08:23] <gordonjcp> -d
[08:23] <shiester_miester> bur[n] er, or i could just download some free software
[08:23] <paganjew> Anoninon, absolutely what did you expect :)
[08:23] <macogw> paganjew: unless we're crossing things...i was asking if .psd is a photoshop file because i recognize it, but on windows i was a paint shop pro user which makes me want to ask if the gimp can take paintshop pro files
[08:23] <shiester_miester> rather than spending money to buy something to replace something else that should work in the first place
[08:24] <godlygeek> so, i can cat /proc/acpi/button/lid/LID0/state to find out if the lid is closed... is there any way to find out if the backlight is on or off through the proc filesystem, or a quick c program to query the backlight module, or something?
[08:24] <paganjew> macogw, it should recognize it and be able to import it
[08:24] <Truman_> paganjew: SSH Is like magic :)
[08:24] <bur[n] er> shiester_miester: what kind of printer?  sure it doesn't work?  check the wiki by chance... many printers are there
[08:24] <ImLukeEkblad> mongolai: Back
[08:24] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, welcome back
[08:24] <shiester_miester> bur[n] er, i printed in windows about 2 hours ago
[08:24] <shiester_miester> bur[n] er, canon ip1000
[08:25] <ImLukeEkblad> mongolai: thanks
[08:25] <lkthomas> hey guys, I remove sources.list by accident, how could I recover the default sources.list ?
[08:25] <paganjew> macogw, i just imported a psd file so yes it works
[08:25] <Truman_> paganjew: Now what would I activate to get it to switch back to metacity/gnome from beryl through the command line?
[08:25] <jerbear> i'm trying to add a script to /etc/acpi/resume.d but it fails because the X display isn't available. it's running after everything else. what could be the problem?
[08:26] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, now can you make a new pastebin  with /var/log/Xorg.0.log   ?
[08:26] <bur[n] er> shiester_miester: see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrintersCanon
[08:26] <Jude> lkthomas: try searching the default file for your machine from google
[08:26] <shiester_miester> bur[n] er, i didnt mean to imply that it CANT work, i just said that it doesnt
[08:26] <paganjew> Truman_, metacity --replace
[08:26] <macogw> paganjew: psd is photoshop.  im asking if paintshop files work...and omg wtf jasc sold paintshop pro to corel?
[08:26] <Jakobsen> Oh my.. When I start xserver-xgl, it starts with a wrong keyboard layout, and the superkeys does not work :(
[08:26] <shiester_miester> obviously its entirely possible to make it work
[08:26] <ImLukeEkblad> ok
[08:27] <bur[n] er> shiester_miester: right on... just trying to persuade you against virtualizing windows for printing when you could run pure and clean ubuntu ;)
[08:27] <macogw> paganjew: i guess i dont have to worry about it though as i dont have windows on which to run psp anyway
[08:27] <macogw> if psp was ported to linux id be very happy
[08:27] <paganjew> macogw, no wories corel sucks and has sold out to microsoft anyways, what is the extension  for paintshop?
[08:27] <bur[n] er> shiester_miester: not so obvious on this one it seems :\
[08:27] <paganjew> macogw, cool
[08:27] <shiester_miester> bur[n] er, i would much prefer to do it in ubuntu, thanks a lot for giving me this wiki
[08:27] <macogw> paganjew: idk i was just trying to look it up when i found that it was sold to corel
[08:27] <bur[n] er> shiester_miester: np... good luck :)
[08:28] <Truman_> paganjew: Looks like the remote computer is still running beryl
[08:28] <paganjew> Truman_, you tried "metacity --repace" ?
[08:28] <paganjew> Truman_, excuse me s/repace/replace
[08:28] <macogw> with an l
[08:29] <shiester_miester> bur[n] er, the files that it tells me to download are missing :( i get a 404
[08:29] <berent> what is the AI suite support that mobos put nowadays and why have serial ports gone ?
[08:29] <Truman_> yeah, it says "metacity lost its connection to the display....",
[08:29] <bruenig> Vaske_Car, what is this
[08:29] <Truman_> paganjew: tried beryl --replace and now the remote computer is angry
[08:29] <Jakobsen> How can I change my keyboard layout when running xserver-xgl, and make my superkeys work?
[08:30] <Jud1> lkthomas:
[08:30] <paganjew> Truman_, you are almost there, i don't use a GUI i use a CLI command line interface but it should work
[08:30] <shiester_miester> bur[n] er, http://www.sumardi.net/2006/08/24/ip1000-driver-for-ubuntu/
[08:30] <shiester_miester> give this to other people if they ask the same question :P
[08:30] <makuseru> hi, i was trying to 'make' somthing and it said "Package 'libxml-2.0', required by 'compiz-cube', not found" so i did a "sudo apt-get install libxml-2.0" and it said "Package 'libxml-2.0', required by 'compiz-cube', not found", how can i get this package?
[08:30] <Truman_> paganjew: K, I'll keep at it
[08:31] <paganjew> Truman_, almost there
[08:31] <Jakobsen> How can I change my keyboard layout when running xserver-xgl, and make my superkeys work?
[08:31] <ImLukeEkblad> mongolai: sry, hold on
[08:31] <shiester_miester> makuseru, cross your fingers and click your heels together three times while closing your eyes and saying "there's no place like home. there's no place like home. there's no place like home..."
[08:32] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, ok
[08:32] <makuseru> shiester_miester: no need to be rude with people just trying to get help
[08:32] <shiester_miester> i already made a pre-emptive apology
[08:32] <bruenig> Vaske_Car, what the hell
[08:32] <Jakobsen> AM I INVISIBLE OR WHAT???
[08:32] <Vaske_Car> ??
[08:33] <bruenig> Jakobsen, I can't see you
[08:33] <berent> shiester_miester : that was a good exercise :-) really.
[08:33] <bruenig> can anyone else see him?
[08:33] <jerbear> i'm trying to add a script to /etc/acpi/resume.d but it fails because the X display isn't available. it's running after everything else. what could be the problem?
[08:33] <mongolai> Jakobsen, no one knows. that's all
[08:33] <bruenig> Vaske_Car, what is this logo4.psd nonsense
[08:33] <shiester_miester> berent, what?
[08:33] <Jakobsen> bruenig, nobody is answering me :(
[08:33] <ImLukeEkblad> mongolai:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28761/
[08:33] <paganjew> bruenig, i cant see him
[08:33] <Jakobsen> mongolai, okay thanks..
[08:33] <Vaske_Car> bruenig, im trying to send to another guy not sure how you get it?
[08:33] <robby> just scp <dir/file> <1p/hostname>:<newfilename>
[08:33] <bruenig> paganjew, me neither how weird
[08:33] <shiester_miester> Jakobsen, that could possible mean that they just dont know how to help you?
[08:33] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, Ok. Just a minute...
[08:33] <defrysk> !patience | Jakobsen
[08:33] <ubotu> Jakobsen: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[08:33] <Truman_> Jakobsen: I can see you
[08:33] <paganjew> bruenig, maybe its the weather ?
[08:33] <bruenig> paganjew, maybe do you hear the wind?
[08:34] <berent> shiester_miester : close eyes cross fingers and kicking heels . where did you learn it.
[08:34] <Jakobsen> Okay, you can stop now.. I just had to make sure you could see me..
[08:34] <Jakobsen> That's all..
[08:34] <shiester_miester> its from the wizard of oz, you silly man
[08:34] <paganjew> bruenig, maybe, oh no thats the AC
[08:34] <bruenig> I see a blank line in the irc log
[08:34] <shiester_miester> didnt you ever read/see/hear about the wizard of oz!?
[08:34] <bruenig> maybe that is him
[08:35] <paganjew> shiester_miester, pink floyd :)
[08:35] <paganjew> dark side of the moon
[08:35] <Jud2> lkthomas: rpm     [JPackage]  http://jpackage.sourceforge.net rpm free
[08:35] <shiester_miester> what does that have to do with childrens fairy-tales
[08:35] <berent> shiester_miester : just now
[08:35] <zenfool> :s
[08:35] <paganjew> haven't you watched wizard of ozz with dark side of the moon ?
[08:35] <paganjew> shiester_miester, your missing out
[08:36] <shiester_miester> nope, i dont really like pink floyd or red hot chilli peppers or any of that generation of bands :P
[08:36] <bruenig> if the album had better guis
[08:36] <fishy> Hey, what's the command for the terminal-based system monitor? Where it lists all the processes?
[08:36] <macogw> that's not the same generation of bands
[08:36] <shiester_miester> bruenig, LMAO
[08:36] <godlygeek> so, no one knows of a way to query whether the backlight is on or off on a laptop?
[08:36] <godlygeek> fishy: top
[08:36] <robby> ps
[08:36] <fishy> Thanks, godlygeek.
[08:36] <tonsofpcs> godlygeek: look?
[08:36] <paganjew> shiester_miester, pink floyd and red hot chili peppers are different generations
[08:36] <godlygeek> tonsofpcs: query.  from a script.  :-p
[08:37] <mojojojo_> erm... I'm using Bittorrent but I can't limit the download rate .... how can I do it... or... which client willl allow me to do it... please don't recommend Azureus  or some program based on Qt... I'd like to have a clean GTK torrent client :)
[08:37] <shiester_miester> paganjew, im just very ignorant about pretty much everything music related :P
[08:37] <tonsofpcs> godlygeek: if ison(badnotebookdesign), islit(screen)
[08:37] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, Did this monitor work at 1200 X 800 ever before?
[08:37] <macogw> why would you limit download rate?
[08:37] <berent> shiester_miester : i dnt care about wordings but the exercise was good for all working on computers it brings relief . thanks
[08:37] <macogw> upload rate would make sense, but the other way means you get your file slower
[08:37] <tonsofpcs> although you can probably check the lid switch through ACPI or something
[08:37] <shiester_miester> berent, youre welcome :)
[08:37] <Jud2> hello
[08:37] <paganjew> shiester_miester, well stick to your gui
[08:37] <shiester_miester> heheh
[08:37] <Truman_> ImLukeEkblad: Still having trouble getting it to see your 1280x800 res?
[08:37] <bruenig> hey jude
[08:37] <Fluffors> i need someones help bad...
[08:37] <bruenig> don't make it bad
[08:37] <shiester_miester> actually im in command line right now, trying to install my printers
[08:37] <shiester_miester> *printer
[08:38] <mojojojo_> macogw: duh... but maximum dowlload rate block the Firefox...
[08:38] <Fluffors> someone want to help me?
[08:38] <Myrtti> gooooooood morning
[08:38] <shiester_miester> if Fluffors name was jude that would have been hilarious
[08:38] <macogw> oooo
[08:38] <mojojojo_> blocks*
[08:38] <Jud2> Fluffors: what's up??
[08:38] <godlygeek> tonsofpcs: the issue is that when the lid is closed, the backlight is turned off like it ought to be, but certain things can make it turn back on before the lid is reopened.  for some reason.  and i don't have any clue how to fix that.
[08:38] <bruenig> shiester_miester, jud2
 hey jude <Jude > i need someones help bad... <bruenig> don't make it bad
[08:38] <Ivis> Who hear somthing about 7.10 version?
[08:38] <Thegeektechnique> Hello everyone... I have scoured the web but found no solution that works for me... I have a NVIDIA GeForce 420 Go graphics card... When I installed the privelaged drivers I did the whole "edit the xorg file so i can see" bit. But now the resolution is stuck at 800x600 and there is a black bar to the left... anyone know a fix? I have tried dozens of em...
[08:38] <godlygeek> tonsofpcs: so, my plan is something like 'while lid closed; wait until backlight turns on && turn the backlight off'
[08:39] <Thegeektechnique> black bar to the right i mean
[08:39] <mongolai> Truman_, yea ImLukeEkblad is still having problems. see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28761/ if you have any insights!!
[08:39] <Jud2> ??
[08:39] <paganjew> godlygeek, do you have the proper dsdt file?
[08:39] <tonsofpcs> godlygeek: ACPI and APM might support that, not sure
[08:39] <Fluffors> I installed ubuntu and it got corrupted so I booted the live disk and went far enough into the install process so that i could delete its partition leaving my windows partiton, but now it still trys to load the grub manager and gives me an "error 22"... i need to get on windows..
[08:39] <bruenig> godlygeek, i think you might get command not found
[08:39] <_C_> How do you install an rpm in ubuntu?
[08:39] <bruenig> _C_, no
[08:39] <paganjew> _C_, alien
[08:39] <bruenig> _C_, get the source or get the deb
[08:39] <bruenig> don't use alien unless you want your computer to stop working
[08:39] <godlygeek> bruenig: pseudocode, buddy, pseudocode.  :)
[08:39] <mongolai> _C_ you don't ever
[08:39] <shiester_miester> _C_, sudo apt-get install alien
[08:39] <paganjew> bruenig, i change my answer yours is better
[08:40] <Hitomaro> sigh
[08:40] <godlygeek> paganjew: i dunno, let me google dsdt files.  heh, it's ubuntu on a C2D macbook.  :)
[08:40] <shiester_miester> _C_, then "alien [deb package] "
[08:40] <Thegeektechnique>  Hello everyone... I have scoured the web but found no solution that works for me... I have a NVIDIA GeForce 420 Go graphics card... When I installed the privelaged drivers I did the whole "edit the xorg file so i can see" bit. But now the resolution is stuck at 800x600 and there is a black bar to the left... anyone know a fix? I have tried dozens of em
[08:40] <paganjew> godlygeek, its all about the dsdt file :)
[08:40] <Jud2> _C_: you can't install a .rpm
[08:40] <bruenig> shiester_miester, you better be here when he comes in here irate with a package that he can't remove
[08:40] <berent> !alien
[08:40] <ubotu> RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[08:40] <bruenig> and that doesn't work
[08:40] <Fluffors> what should i do Jud2 ^ ?
[08:40] <Truman_> Thegeektechnique: Did you update your nvidia-glx drivers?
[08:40] <shiester_miester> bruenig, what?
[08:40] <paganjew> Jud2, come on thats just a lie
[08:40] <Thegeektechnique> yeah
[08:40] <paganjew> Jud2, the question is do you want to
[08:40] <bruenig> shiester_miester, don't recommend alien
[08:40] <shiester_miester> oooh
[08:41] <shiester_miester> well im glad that happened
[08:41] <shiester_miester> cos i was just about to use it myself
[08:41] <berent> !rpm
[08:41] <paganjew> _C_, what do u want to install?
[08:41] <ubotu> RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[08:41] <godlygeek> paganjew: what exactly is the dsdt responsible for?
[08:41] <jerbear> can anyone give me any info on acpi resume.d scripts? PLEASE :)
[08:41] <mojojojo_> _C_ you could try unpacking it to a directory and try do something with it... but would advise not to do it, since you will probably not succeed... and you'll only waste time... it's better to try compile the source...
[08:41] <Fluffors> Jud2??
[08:42] <shiester_miester> ok, so how do i install rpm files?
[08:42] <bruenig> shiester_miester, you don't you get the source or you get a deb
[08:42] <robby> lol, its dangerous
[08:42] <shiester_miester> what i want to do is this http://www.sumardi.net/2006/08/24/ip1000-driver-for-ubuntu/
[08:42] <paganjew> godlygeek, how acpi responds to certain events, its what acpi uses to interepet what is going
[08:42] <berent> robby :-)
[08:42] <paganjew> godlygeek, on
[08:42] <Truman_> Thegeektechnique: How about the latest drivers from nvidia's site?
[08:42] <kkathman> to install rpms - get an rpm system... use rpm -ivh :)
[08:43] <godlygeek> [    0.000000]  ACPI: DSDT (v001 APPLE   MacBook 0x00020001 INTL 0x20050309) @ 0x00000000
[08:43] <godlygeek> [   12.280900]  ACPI: Looking for DSDT in initramfs... file /DSDT.aml not found, using machine DSDT.
[08:43] <paganjew> godlygeek, but i am rather drunk so please don't quote me
[08:43] <berent> kkathman : exactly
[08:43] <shiester_miester> bruenig, any advice you can give me on how to do what it says on that webpage?
[08:43] <paganjew> godlygeek, thats right its using a generic dsdt
[08:43] <godlygeek> that seems to indicate that the machine's dsdt is found and matches the machine type, right?
[08:43] <shiester_miester> bruenig, but being able to install the necessary files safely, of course
[08:43] <bruenig> shiester_miester, well if they only ship it in rpm, I guess you can try, I would still just extract it and look at it
[08:43] <jerbear> echo echo echo
[08:44] <macogw> mojojojo_: azureus isnt qt-based, is it?
[08:44] <macogw> Fluffors: go into windows (or put in your windows disk) and run "fixmbr" in c:\windows\ in the command line
[08:44] <shiester_miester> echo....echo.....echo
[08:44] <paganjew> godlygeek, if possible you want to use a dsdt that will be suited to your lapi so that acpi will be able to change the settings you desire
[08:44] <Fluffors> i dont have my windows cd
[08:44] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, It seems as if X.org can not support 1200x800 with your graphics card. Maybe someone else knows a hack for it, but I'm personally stumped. Really sorry :(
[08:44] <Fluffors> i borrowed it to friends and never got it back
[08:44] <shiester_miester> Fluffors, congratulations!
[08:44] <berent> shiester_miester : syntax error
[08:44] <paganjew> godlygeek, i.e. the power button on the laptop
[08:44] <shiester_miester> berent, lol, smartass
[08:44] <Jud2> lkthomas: try dpkg-scansources debs | gzip > debs/Sources.gz
[08:45] <ImLukeEkblad> mongolai:  Crap
[08:45] <ImLukeEkblad> mongolai well thanks for helping me
[08:45] <lkthomas> Jud2: nevermind, I copy the file from other machine already
[08:45] <berent> shiester_miester : good to know my ass have fans
[08:45] <Fluffors> thats my only option huh? fuckin windows cd?
[08:45] <jerbear> no one knows anything about acpi resume.d scripts?
[08:45] <xipietotec> using the command line, how do I find out the modification date of a file?
[08:45] <mojojojo_> macogw: Azureus package for Ubuntu is faulty... I once used it... got nervous... and I won't install it again :)
[08:45] <shiester_miester> bruenig, when i extract it, what should i be looking for?
[08:45] <shiester_miester> anything specific?
[08:45] <paganjew> who needs azureus when one has ncurses
[08:45] <Truman_> ImLukeEkblad: Exactly which card did you have?  Mine is intel integrated, too..
[08:46] <mojojojo_> macogw: I guess installing fresh one might be an option... but still... it's horribly slow, don't you think?
[08:46] <godlygeek> paganjew: that message seems to be saying that it's using the machine's dsdt pulled out of nvram, not a generic one?
[08:46] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, I wish we could have got it to work :(
[08:46] <paganjew> godlygeek, ok just make sure of it, because it can make a load of difference
[08:46] <shiester_miester> paganjew, whats ncurses?
[08:46] <xipietotec> using the command line, how do I find out the modification date of a file?
[08:46] <Fluffors> god i fucking hate ubuntu
[08:47] <paganjew> xijio, us ls -l
[08:47] <macogw> mojojojo_: i dont know.  i can only torrent over wireless and wireless is slow internet.  if i try to torrent with a wired connected, the driver goes kerplowy so i dont bother
[08:47] <shiester_miester> i was just about to ask him to leave, lol
[08:47] <godlygeek> xipietotec: or, use 'stat' to get a whole lot of info.  :)
[08:47] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, I have a tip for when you ask others for help, though, so not all is lost...
[08:47] <paganjew> xijio, actually "ls -l "file""
[08:47] <Truman_> ImLukeEkblad: Mine is an Intel GMA 950, and it works on that
[08:47] <jerbear> i'm trying to add a script to /etc/acpi/resume.d but it fails because the X display isn't available. it's running after everything else. what could be the problem?
[08:47] <_C_> Where is the install path of firefox?
[08:48] <paganjew> _C_, install path?
[08:48] <mongolai> Truman_, if you know how, I'm all ears too!
[08:48] <paganjew> _C_, where is the bin?
[08:48] <_C_> Sorry... where is it installed
[08:48] <saxin> what do I need to be able to try out ubuntu gutsy in vmware?
[08:48] <saxin> vmware-player?
[08:48] <Jud2> kawk: stop spamming
[08:48] <Truman_> mongolai:  I know how to get it running on that specific card; 'cause it worked for me alright
[08:48] <mongolai> Truman_, yea, ok
[08:48] <jerbear> fuck this... i'm getting a mac...
[08:48] <paganjew> saxin, why vmware?
[08:49] <Truman_> jerbear:  You can stick ubuntu on a mac, too : )
[08:49] <paganjew> saxin, are you using XP, Vista to run it?
[08:49] <digitalsky> hello
[08:49] <_C_> paganjew: I mean where is it installed? I am installing flash player 9 and it needs to know where firefox is installed.
[08:49] <saxin> paganjew: no, I use ubuntu :)
[08:49] <mongolai> Truman_, wait, he has a GMA 940 or 945
[08:49] <paganjew> _C_, you need to install it in the mozilla plugin directory
[08:49] <Truman_> mongolai: Heh, I dunno if it'd be the same or not
[08:49] <_C_> where is that
[08:50] <paganjew> saxin, then make a chroot
[08:50] <mongolai> me neither
[08:50] <bruenig> _C_, install it from the package manager: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[08:50] <saxin> paganjew: ehm ok?! :P
[08:50] <paganjew> saxin, vmware is slow compared to native chroot
[08:50] <shiester_miester> saxin, "locate firefox"
[08:50] <digitalsky> i'm trying to switch from xp to freebsd, but found freebsd to be too much of a hassel when used as a desktop. so i'm wondering about ubuntu.
[08:50] <shiester_miester> that will find a whole bunch of stuff, and some of it will be the firefox directory :P
[08:50] <saxin> shiester_miester: huh?
[08:50] <paganjew> saxin, whereis firefox
[08:50] <jerbear> i fucking hate macs, but i bet i could get more answers from their tech support
[08:50] <bruenig> what are you guys looking for
[08:50] <paganjew> saxin, although that will only tell you where the bin is
[08:50] <digitalsky> is anyone available to chat briefly with me on ubuntu compared to freebsd?
[08:50] <saxin> I dont ask about firefox :P
[08:50] <shiester_miester> sorry, not saxin, i meant _C_
[08:50] <Cryoniq> Anyone know of video conversion and editing software under Ubuntu?
[08:50] <bruenig> /usr/lib/firefox/plugins
[08:50] <bruenig> is that it
[08:50] <paganjew> saxin, sorry too drunk
[08:51] <shiester_miester> the s and _ keys are like right next to each other :/
[08:51] <saxin> lol
[08:51] <mongolai> Truman_, nevertheless, did you have to hack it out, or did it work out-of-the-box
[08:51] <mongolai> ?
[08:51] <Jude> jerbear: there are many sources of help for linux
[08:51] <Cryoniq> !3gp | Cryoniq
[08:51] <saxin> anyone that can provide me url to gutsy cd-image?
[08:51] <paganjew> _C_, "whereis firefox" in terminal
[08:51] <shiester_miester> paganjew, thats a useful command
[08:51] <niru> hi
[08:51] <bruenig> paganjew, what are you doing
[08:51] <paganjew> saxin, will you use chroot, it really is the best way
[08:52] <Truman_> mongolai: Here's what I did .. sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list and added "universe" to the two main sources .. then sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get install 950resolution .. then I rebooted X and I believe it worked
[08:52] <paganjew> ?
[08:52] <niru> can i get document on creating ubuntu way of live-cum-install cd
[08:52] <niru> ?
[08:52] <saxin> paganjew: ok, I guess so.. I dont know anything about it tho
[08:52] <xipietotec> thankyou godlygeek
[08:52] <jerbear> IRC is usually my last stop when looking for answers, but no one seems to know what the hell i'm asking about
[08:52] <paganjew> just google it
[08:52] <ImLukeEkblad> mongolai:  Sry, whats the tip?
[08:52] <bruenig> niru, the live cd is the desktop cd
[08:52] <mongolai> Truman_, hmmm. you should tell that to ImLukeEkblad
[08:52] <saxin> paganjew: I will
[08:52] <bruenig> niru, it is the install cd
[08:52] <Truman_> mongolai: so maybe his would be 945resolution ?
[08:53] <niru> bruenig, yup but can I get a document on that to try it out
[08:53] <paganjew> later all have an awesome time with ubuntu - i use debian actually but its all the same - peace out
[08:53] <macogw> its 915resolution
[08:53] <mongolai> ImLukeEkblad, read what Truman_ said about 17 lines up^^
[08:53] <bruenig> niru, what do you mean, you download it and burn it to a cd
[08:53] <mongolai> i'm outty
[08:53] <niru> bruenig, I want to create a customized cd
[08:53] <saxin> anyone that can provide me url to gutsy cd-image?
[08:53] <mongolai> later all, and good luck, ImLukeEkblad
[08:53] <Truman_> ImLukeEkblad: I dunno if that'd work, 'cause it may be specific to the intel 950..
[08:54] <Truman_> ImLukeEkblad: Here's what I did .. sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list and added "universe" to the two main sources .. then sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get install 950resolution .. then I rebooted X and I believe it worked
[08:54] <ImLukeEkblad> ok
[08:54] <Truman_> ImLukeEkblad: However, they don't have 940 or 945resolution, so I dunno
[08:54] <bruenig> Truman_, universe is enabled by default
[08:54] <macogw> saxin: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/gutsy/tribe-2/
[08:54] <bruenig> Truman_, gksudo not sudo
[08:54] <ImLukeEkblad> I dont get what to do?
[08:54] <macogw> ImLukeEkblad, Truman_, the file is called 915resolution
[08:54] <jerbear> i'm trying to add a script to /etc/acpi/resume.d but it fails because the X display isn't available. it's running after everything else. what could be the problem?
[08:54] <ImLukeEkblad> ok
[08:55] <niru> bruenig, ?
[08:55] <bruenig> niru, I don't know I would just use LFS
[08:55] <ImLukeEkblad> how do i get that file macogw?
[08:55] <Truman_> bruenig: I had to add my universe :\ -- and I thought gksudo was only if you were running something graphical?
[08:55] <macogw> ImLukeEkblad: sudo apt-get install 915resolution
[08:55] <bruenig> Truman_, gedit is graphical
[08:56] <Thegeektechnique> yeah ok guys. nvidia geforce 42o go card... installed the latest GLX driver... fixed the xorg.conf with the line "Option      "UseDisplayDevice"  "DFP" so that I could see.. but now no matter what I do I can't get the resolution to go above 800x600 and there is a black bar across the right side of my screen
[08:56] <Truman_> bruenig: I know, but I thought that the difference between sudo and gksudo was that gksudo would put you in root for a graphical app, like if I wanted to gksudo beryl-manager or whatever
[08:56] <mocha> hello, can anyone explain the way Ubuntu packages are versioned?
[08:56] <ImLukeEkblad> ok
[08:56] <ImLukeEkblad> installed
[08:56] <mocha> what does "1:xxx" mean for example?
[08:57] <crimsun> mocha: the leading "1" is an epoch.
[08:57] <ImLukeEkblad> Now what?
[08:57] <Truman_> ImLukeEkblad: Try restarting X and see if you can pick your res
[08:57] <bruenig> Truman_, no gksudo is used for graphical apps 1. because it allows one to launch something from a menu and put their password in whereas sudo wouldn't and 2. because using sudo in graphical applications can lead to things like .Xauthority being owned by root which makes it impossible to login
[08:57] <ImLukeEkblad> X?
[08:57] <macogw> mocha: the file name and its version goes first then a - and number for what debian build it is (sometimes with debian patches), then if ubuntu patched it too, it'll say ubuntu and a number for which ubuntu revision it is
[08:57] <macogw> ImLukeEkblad: ctrl alt backspace
[08:58] <crimsun> mocha: http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#s-f-Version
[08:58] <macogw> ImLukeEkblad: X is the graphical server
[08:58] <jerbear> you mean to tell me no one here has hacked around with resume.d scripts???
[08:58] <Thegeektechnique> yeah ok guys. nvidia geforce 42o go card... installed the latest GLX driver... fixed the xorg.conf with the line "Option      "UseDisplayDevice"  "DFP" so that I could see.. but now no matter what I do I can't get the resolution to go above 800x600 and there is a black bar across the right side of my screen
[08:58] <mocha> thanks very much!
[08:58] <Truman_> bruenig: That makes sense; but apt-get is purely cli, right?
[08:58] <bruenig> Truman_, apt-get not gedit
[08:58] <macogw> Thegeektechnique: did you check the wiki for the part about nvidia resolution bugs?
[08:58] <Thegeektechnique> let me check again thaks
[08:58] <Truman_> bruenig: Ahh, I gotcha; that makes sense
[08:58] <Thegeektechnique> *thanks
[08:58] <macogw> Truman_: yes apt-get is cli, aptitude can be cli or gui, and then add/remove and synaptic for all gui
[08:59] <macogw> Truman_: by aptitude can be gui, i mean an ncurses red/grey/blue gui
[08:59] <jerbear> goddamn
[08:59] <macogw> jerbear: this is mostly newbie & installation help in here
[09:00] <macogw> jerbear: its probably the right place to ask, it just might be that the people online right now arent that knowledgeable
[09:00] <mocha> does anyone else in here using Feisty with 2.6.20 generic have problem with "choppy" video playback?
[09:00] <macogw> i'm definitely not that good
[09:00] <jerbear> any suggestion on another room? i've been asking in ##linux, but there just as responsive
[09:00] <jerbear> *they're
[09:00] <Slasher`> whats up?
[09:01] <ImLukeEkblad> YESSSSSSSS!
[09:01] <ImLukeEkblad> It worked!!!
[09:01] <ImLukeEkblad> thank you soooo much
[09:01] <shiester_miester> bruenig, i figured out how i can get my printer working!
[09:01] <ImLukeEkblad> :)
[09:01] <bruenig> k
[09:01] <shiester_miester> all i need is this file: canonpixmaip1000.ppd
[09:01] <Truman_> ImLukeEkblad: yay
[09:01] <ImLukeEkblad> YAY!
[09:01] <shiester_miester> but its supposed to come with ubuntu :/
[09:02] <shiester_miester> can everyone please do a "locate canonpixmaip1000.ppd" for me :)
[09:02] <shiester_miester> and who ever has it, send it to me
[09:02] <mikkel_> Hi
[09:02] <shiester_miester> it seems like it was in edgy but not in feisty
[09:02] <mikkel_> i have new problem!

[09:06] <vace117> Hi. Does anyone know why I get "Authentication Failed" message in GDM if I try to log in as an already logged in user? (from the same gdm, but another X server)

[09:11] <homerhomer> 9.40?
[09:11] <Truman_> goodnight e'rebody
[09:11] <rgrant> speeves: where does dpkg store clues as to the reason a package was installed?  it's either user-requested, or via dependencies.
[09:11] <killown> root (hd0,0)
[09:11] <killown> Error 21: Selected disk does not exist
[09:12] <speeves> rgrant: it is in the deb package itself

[09:12] <mikkel_> Hmmm..
[09:12] <twosouls82> shiester_miester: you can use "alien" to convert the driver's rpm package from canon to a debian package (.deb)
[09:12] <vivh349> slt
[09:13] <mikkel_> Hmm
[09:13] <killown> please

[09:13] <mikkel_> What steam have u installed?
[09:13] <mikkel_> Steam4linux?
[09:13] <twosouls82> shiester_miester: for software I would advise against it too, this is simply a printer driver, it couldn't do any harm
[09:13] <killown> :"""
[09:14] <killown> help me
[09:14] <mikkel_> Hm Ivis.. and Homerhomer : What Steam i download and install??  Steam4linux?

[09:14] <ImLukeEkblad> (12:10:06 AM) rgrant: hi, i have a sysadmin question regarding the dpkg database.  can anyone help me?    Pleas?
[09:14] <speeves> rgrant: so there is no central db with that info
[09:14] <twosouls82> shiester_miester: you can also extract the rpm package and install the files manually :)
[09:14] <speeves> rgrant: but in each deb package
[09:14] <mikkel_> can i install from wine .msl?
[09:15] <mikkel_> wine steaminstall.msl?
[09:15] <rgrant> does this mean that some packages are always deemed "implicit", in their control files, and that whenever the upgrade system notices that no othe packages depend on them, they are candidates for removal?  this seems like it could mess with a user explicitly adding something like a truetype font.
[09:15] <_Lucretia_> what would be a good amount of swap for a 2GB mcahine? ta
[09:15] <rgrant> ...if that font were marked "implicit"
[09:15] <homerhomer> mikkel_: wine steam.msi "not so good"

[09:22] <mikkel_> Cedage.. can i download it?
[09:22] <astro76> !pastebin | mikkel_
[09:22] <ubotu> mikkel_: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:22] <rgrant> i am not interested in the implicitly installed package names
[09:22] <homerhomer> I'm sure you can
[09:22] <speeves> rgrant: we had this discussion on #debian a few days ago
[09:22] <Feeling> Hello
[09:23] <speeves> rgrant: and there was no real conclusive answer
[09:23] <mikkel_> homerhomer:  can i download it?
[09:23] <rgrant> speeves: cool
[09:23] <rgrant> speeves: durnit
[09:23] <speeves> rgrant: the thought was that maybe aptitude could do it, but wasn't sure
[09:23] <speeves> rgrant: I always do the following:
[09:23] <speeves> rgrant: dpkg --get-selections > mybackupfile.txt
[09:23] <speeves> rgrant: when I have a pristine machine, I do:
[09:24] <_C_> Where can I download kiba-dock?
[09:24] <OmegaCenti> Is it bad for my wireless card and my sound card to share the same interrupt?
[09:24] <speeves> rgrant: dpkg --set-selections < mybackupfile.txt
[09:24] <homerhomer> mikkel_: try this last thing before,:::   wineserver -k
[09:24] <homerhomer> and then try to resume the install
[09:24] <speeves> rgrant: then run dselect ( for some reason it works better), update and install
[09:24] <mikkel_> ok
[09:24] <speeves> rgrant: my machine is then back where I was before rebuilding
[09:24] <homerhomer> mikkel_: and you DON't want to be root
[09:25] <speeves> rgrant: plus it is release agnostic
[09:25] <Feeling> Somebody have a intel GMA 3000 or 3100 ??? I cannot find any driver working with feisty :-(
[09:25] <mikkel_> i have mikkel@mikkel-desktop:~$ wineserver -k now
[09:25] <rgrant> speeves: righto, if that's the best we can do, then that's what i was asking.  i was hoping to compress the info by not storing the package dependencies. but it's no big deal
[09:25] <Shadow6363> hey quick question, whats the difference between an administrator and desktop user
[09:25] <rgrant> speeves: thanks much
[09:26] <speeves> rgrant: the file is pretty small
[09:26] <Shadow6363> i had to delete the original install user and replaced it with a desktop user, not sure which the original was, but there is no way to change it after creation
[09:26] <speeves> basically a line per package
[09:26] <_C_> Where can I download kibadock?
[09:26] <rgrant> speeves: it's actually old dependencies that i want to avoid.
[09:26] <mikkel_> homerhomer:  New error
[09:27] <homerhomer> ok
[09:27] <speeves> rgrant: have you checked out apt-get auto-remove
[09:27] <CroX> To mount a cd image, how do I do?
[09:27] <homerhomer> lets see it
[09:27] <homerhomer> you can private message me
[09:27] <speeves> rgrant: that should remove all of your non-dependent packages
[09:27] <homerhomer> or use the paste board
[09:27] <mikkel_> See private
[09:27] <mikkel_> :)
[09:27] <homerhomer> K
[09:27] <GaryvdM> I want to install a whole lot of packages that were downloaded and installed by adept on one machine on another machine, without downloading them again. Can this be done?
[09:28] <mikkel_> Homer.. have u see it?
[09:28] <firedrops> yes
[09:28] <firedrops> check the cache
[09:28] <GaryvdM> Where is that?
[09:28] <Shadow6363> anyone?
[09:28] <mikkel_> firedrops:  me?
[09:29] <firedrops> i dont know wether apt stores that by default though
[09:29] <firedrops> GaryvdM,
[09:29] <rgrant> speeves: yes.  i can use that.  thanks.
[09:30] <firedrops> /var/cache/apt/archives
[09:30] <dvm> Garyvdm:  Sorry, it didn't works. i tried apt-get install xulrunner, it installed something, i still can't fine XPCOM development package. I need this to install moon
[09:30] <firedrops> i suppose aptitude stores them in the same place
[09:30] <speeves> aptitude is just a front end to apt
[09:30] <ubuntubeginz> lets say i downloaded a package via synaptic manager.. how can i know where(which directory) the package got installed to...thanks
[09:31] <GaryvdM> dvm: Sorry - I have only used it on windows.
[09:31] <SeveredCross> dpkg -L package-name
[09:31] <VoX> ubuntubeginz: right-click on the package, select properties -> installed files
[09:31] <SeveredCross> Or that..
[09:31] <SeveredCross> I forgot about that.
[09:31] <VoX> heh
[09:31] <GaryvdM> But I know that the xpcom sdk is in the xulrunner install
[09:31] <SeveredCross> I just like the commandline.
[09:31] <Shadow6363> any ideas what the difference between an administrator and desktop user is?
[09:31] <SeveredCross> :)
[09:32] <VoX> SeveredCross: same, but he used the example with synaptic, so.. :)
[09:32] <dvm> Garyvdm:  i got it, i need to install firefox-dev
[09:33] <aharoni> hi
[09:33] <aharoni> I raised the problem of finding a laptop which is supported by 100% free non-restricted drivers without binary blobs on the discussion of Bug #1 in Launchpad.
[09:33] <aharoni> Mark Shuttleworth replied and said that such a laptop is indeed hard to find, but he also said that Intel may remove the binary blobs soon (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1/comments/385 )
[09:33] <ubuntubeginz> thanks guys... both ways are gud.. :)
[09:33] <aharoni> Intel wireless are very common in laptops where i live (Israel). Does Mark's reply mean that these cards may become well-supported with free drivers soon?
[09:34] <GaryvdM> firedrops: Thanks - for the help - it work's to just copy that dir.
[09:34] <Bogaurd> if i have a ttf font... how can I install this in ubuntu?
[09:34] <firedrops> GaryvdM, apt has some option to that that in a "smart" way
[09:34] <firedrops> google for it
[09:34] <firedrops> never used it
[09:35] <firedrops> though in theory, being the same architecture the packages will be the same
[09:35] <GaryvdM> ok
[09:35] <trekkme> i am using some kde apps under gnome, like amarok, can i change the single click behavior of those? i mean that single click does not open that folder entirely but showes me the subfolders
[09:35] <dijital1> someone told me that I need to create/edit /etc/mailcap, but I'm not sure what I'd need to put in the file to have is use audacious to play .pls files
[09:35] <dijital1> mmm knowing how to have firefox use audacious to play .pls shoutcast streams instead of the mplayerplug-in
[09:36] <TexasTaz> Eagleray you around
[09:38] <shiester_miester> hey twosouls82, you still around?
[09:38] <shiester_miester> ive been tryin to get this printer installed and whatnot
[09:38] <twosouls82> shiester_miester: what is the problem?
[09:39] <shiester_miester> getting my damn printer working :P
[09:39] <shiester_miester> i downloaded and installed those packages and did what it said to do in the guide website i was using
[09:39] <shiester_miester> http://www.sumardi.net/2006/08/24/ip1000-driver-for-ubuntu/
[09:39] <CroX> Could anyone please help me mount a cd image?
[09:40] <twosouls82> shiester_miester: what's not working about it? (I've read the tut)
[09:41] <kikkomanchow> woot fixed the resolution problem
[09:41] <twosouls82> shiester_miester: you still can't detect the printer after installing the debs you've created?
[09:42] <shiester_miester> no no thats the thing, it detected it fine in the first place
[09:42] <shiester_miester> but it doesnt WORK
[09:42] <shiester_miester> also, theres still no driver for the ip1000 :@
[09:42] <shiester_miester> the only difference that following that guide made is that when i go to add a printer is that theres now 2 canon pixma ip1000's there instead of 1
[09:43] <shiester_miester> and 1 of them says "with status readback for canon bj)

[09:44] <twosouls82> shiester_miester: "I tried with dapper, edgy & feisty. It works for me.", a quote from the page of the tutorial
[09:44] <twosouls82> so it should work...
[09:44] <shiester_miester> what driver should i use?
[09:44] <shiester_miester> the thing is, they dont say what to do once you go to the "add printer" dialogue :/
[09:44] <speeves> << is a linux printer weenie
[09:44] <shiester_miester> the driver it defaults to is the i560, which is not the printer i have
[09:45] <twosouls82> shiester_miester: the one from the page I linked you to on the site of canon europe are the same as the ones in the tutorial
[09:45] <shiester_miester> actually they arent
[09:45] <twosouls82> just make sure you follow this page step by step: http://www.sumardi.net/2006/08/24/ip1000-driver-for-ubuntu/
[09:45] <shiester_miester> the ones on that page were called ip1500
[09:45] <twosouls82> shiester_miester: aha
[09:45] <shiester_miester> on the page you gave me earlier
[09:45] <twosouls82> shiester_miester: which one you tried now?
[09:46] <shiester_miester> this page here the one i used, yeah
[09:46] <twosouls82> the one from http://www.sumardi.net/2006/08/24/ip1000-driver-for-ubuntu/?
[09:46] <shiester_miester> and i installed the ip1000 driver you got me through that google search

[09:46] <shiester_miester> maybe :/
[09:47] <twosouls82> shiester_miester:  I see those in the rpm files from the tut you found
[09:47] <jordan__> ubuntubeginz: the "&" after a command means run the program in the background and immediately give back control of the terminal

[09:53] <jordan__> how can i pass boot options at the ubuntu livecd startup?
[09:53] <lkthomas> shiester_miester: you don't know what I am talking about
[09:53] <shiester_miester> lkthomas, probably not
[09:53] <dvm>  how can i scan the hardware changes in ubuntu?
[09:53] <ny00123> Hey (yes me again if someone thinks I'm familiar)...
[09:54] <ny00123> any way to change the title's color from white to, say, black (000000)?
[09:54] <lkthomas> thanks guys
[09:54] <speeves> jordan__: when you get to the boot splash screen, is there an option for help?
[09:55] <speeves> jordan__: it should take you to the debian help screen and one of the F keys will show how to pass options
[09:55] <OmegaConsole> !sound
[09:55] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[09:55] <ny00123> mm... changing title color only impossible according to the following topic?

[09:56] <dv_> hi
[09:56] <ny00123> hey
[09:57] <lkthomas> one more question, everytime I want to restart any service, I have to use /etc/init.d/something restart, is there have any shortcut way to deal with it ?
[09:57] <dv_> anyone knows a tool to record audio in ubuntu?
[09:57] <sirus> anyone know how to do ipv6?
[09:57] <dv_> something like totalrecorder,
[09:57] <dv_> e.g. recording whats being played
[09:57] <n2diy> dv_, audacity
[09:57] <coNP> lkthomas: what do you mean by shortcut?
[09:57] <speeves> lkthomas: alias v="sudo /etc/init.d/something restart"
[09:57] <dv_> audacity cannot record whats being played
[09:57] <jordan__> speeves: thanks
[09:57] <lkthomas> coNP: such as "service apache2 restart"
[09:58] <dv_> there is a python tool, I just forgot its name
[09:58] <_Lucretia_> is dpkg still used? It's been over 10 years since I've used Debian (m68k at the time) and dpkg was used then, thought it was replaced by apt?
[09:58] <n2diy> dv_, audacity can record what's being played, I do it all the time.
[09:58] <speeves>  lkthomas: put that alias in your .bashrc ( cat >> ~/.bashrc)
[09:59] <coNP> lkthomas: no builtin, I guess, but you can use an alias / shell script to do that
[09:59] <lkthomas> grrr
[09:59] <speeves> lkthomas: are you sure?
[09:59] <coNP> lkthomas: Welcome to the world of Debian :D
[09:59] <lkthomas> speeves: yes, service something restartt
[09:59] <dv_> n2diy, how?
[10:00] <lkthomas> coNP: damn, I use tons of distro :)
[10:00] <dv_> I cant find an option
[10:00] <n2diy> dv_, I just hit the record button. What are you trying to record?
[10:00] <speeves> lkthomas: yeah, I see your example.  You are right, but it is distro specific (possibly), so an alias will work across distros :)
[10:00] <dv_> some emulator's output
[10:01] <lkthomas> speeves: hehe, ok
[10:01] <lkthomas> brb
[10:01] <dv_> also, audacity cannot playback while another app is using alsa, which is just plain evil
[10:01] <dv_> record is useless here. just noise
[10:04] <dvs01> the revolution is coming. i got a hot computer noob chick to switch to linux tonite =D
[10:06] <n2diy> dvs01: you should try and keep the computers cool. :)
[10:06] <dvs01> hehe
[10:06] <n2diy> dvs01: and the chicks hot.
[10:07] <dvs01> =]

[10:14] <Dominat0r> i switched to ubuntu yesterday and i can find many stuff on the internet but i wonder how i can control back on my ntfs disks  ?

[10:15] <loquitus_of_borg> Hey people. I am trying to run the command "regenerate" in any directory that has such a file. I tried the following: find . -type f -name regenerate -printf '"%h"\n' | xargs cd %1 && ./regenerate

[10:15] <Dominat0r> hi speeves no i meant that i only have read access
[10:15] <dv_> I have it
[10:16] <dv_> its called "vsound"
[10:16] <EdLin> Dominat0r: use FUSE and NTFS-3g.
[10:16] <speeves> beasty_: it should authenticate using pam, if you have pam setup to auth against ldap

[10:23] <Zapt> how do i manage to deactivate bluetooth under ubuntu?
[10:23] <floppy> can some one help me out with perl plz
[10:23] <Dominat0r> thanks new
[10:23] <speeves> beasty_: can you authenticate against ldap?
[10:23] <EdLin> }MatriX{: you can't install it on an NTFS partition, as the only way to write to NTFS reliably is user-space.
[10:23] <speeves> beasty_: have you setup pam to use ldap groups, or are you using the local groups file
[10:24] <Zapt> how do i manage to deactivate bluetooth under ubuntu?
[10:24] <beasty_> yeah
[10:24] <beasty_> mm
[10:24] <beasty_> it works now ;)
[10:24] <new> Dominat0r, the nice thing is that in #beryl no one knows how to help me ... ridicoulus haha
[10:24] <beasty_> btw speeves i have lag on my ldap client
[10:24] <Dominat0r> @edlin just one small q. Where can i find the repository to check what fuse is called like in it, since im using sudo apt-get install FUSE and it says it cant find the package
[10:24] <floppy> i try perl -e option as described in a security artical
[10:24] <beasty_> it take me a really long time to get stuff resolved :s
[10:24] <EdLin> new: Beryl and compiz are both being replaced by Comiz Fusion. :-)
[10:24] <EdLin> Compiz*
[10:24] <Dominat0r> @new i thought it had to do with having a crappy videocard :)
[10:24] <speeves> beasty_: addgroups is not related to ldap though, right?
[10:24] <floppy> Can't open perl script "e": No such file or directory
[10:25] <new> EdLin, i heard bout that ... but dunno how to install int replacing beyl

[10:25] <EdLin> hmm...
[10:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about compiz fusion - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:25] <Zapt> how do i manage to deactivate bluetooth under ubuntu?
[10:25] <Dominat0r> thanks Edlin
[10:26] <EdLin> new: the Ubuntu forums have a howto
[10:26] <beasty_> speeves: the groups are also defined on the ldap server
[10:26] <Dominat0r> @ Edlin installing atm :)
[10:26] <EdLin> new: I'm warning you though, fusion also has bugs.
[10:26] <beasty_> EdLin: looking for a tut for ubuntu (compiz) ?
[10:26] <speeves> beasty_: what is the error that you get with addgroup (you can use #paste, just let me know)
[10:27] <new> EdLin, ah I understand ... there is no stable release for the moment
[10:27] <EdLin> beasty_: if you're running compiz out of the repository (reccomended) run gnome-compiz-manager.
[10:27] <EdLin> (main repository)
[10:27] <floppy> ANY ONE KNOW PERL
[10:27] <Flannel> !anyone | floppy
[10:27] <ubotu> floppy: 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?
[10:27] <speeves> floppy: check in #perl
[10:28] <EdLin> new: regular compiz isn't quite stable either, but it will be more stable than the alternatives for the most part.
[10:28] <EdLin> I run fusion because I like living on the edge I guess. ;-)
[10:28] <new> EdLin, what kinda bugs are there?
[10:29] <EdLin> new: the one I've experienced is similar to your Beryl one, it won't do window decorations. So I have to get it to use emerald.
[10:29] <beasty_> EdLin: i run compiz fusion
[10:29] <beasty_> speeves: the group thing is resolved
[10:29] <new> EdLin, my problem I remember that could be fixed ... but I dont remember how haha
[10:29] <beasty_> it's just the lag thing that is killing me :(
[10:30] <EdLin> beasty_: yeah, fusion is fun, but the darned git-snapshot repository is out of sync.
[10:30] <beasty_> dnno
[10:30] <morpheus_> I've got 70 or so files that have the names "link to bob.dat" "link to fred.dat" and so on, how do I rename all the files and remove the "link to" bit off the filenames, can I do this with a wildcard?
[10:31] <beasty_> EdLin: my boss ordered to install it
[10:31] <EdLin> lol
[10:31] <beasty_> cause he wanted it to see working
[10:31] <EdLin> beasty_: well, I did get it to work. It's pretty cool!
[10:31] <red_> hi, my firefox is hogging CPU and memory.  I am running feisty-64
[10:31] <EdLin> beasty_: it eats memory for breakfast though.
[10:32] <EdLin> red_: Firefox is like that.
[10:32] <red_> EdLin: it has not always been like that, just for the last several months.  also, it is not like that in other OSes
[10:32] <beasty_> EdLin: dnno let me check
[10:32] <EdLin> red_: are you running a lot of extensions?

[10:33] <EdLin> red_: maybe try kahakaze or whatever its called.
[10:33] <beasty_> that's my mem cruncher
[10:34] <EdLin> beasty_: wow. I only have 512M
[10:34] <beasty_> 1gb
[10:35] <EdLin> beasty_: I've messed with the VMPlayer. I don't browse in XP without running a Linux image in VMWare ordinarily.
[10:35] <speeves> beasty_: what was the group issue?
[10:35] <beasty_> wrong groupname :p
[10:35] <speeves> (how was it resolved?)
[10:35] <speeves> beasty_: cool, those are the good fixes
[10:35] <beasty_> and somthing wrong with the ldap replication :p

[10:49] <DarkFame> thanks
[10:49] <rd> there is another that uses tk, but can't remember it!
[10:50] <DarkFame> dillo was a little bit too on the light side I found out.. :P
[10:50] <RoC_MasterMind> I'm interested in the tickless feature of kernel 2.6.21.  will this be packaged for ubuntu soon, or would it be easier to compile my own kernel?

 with rcconf you are able to dis-/enable gdm for the boot-sequence - do not know why it is slow for you ...
[11:11] <toddy> i'm working on it!
[11:11] <DarkFame> shiester_miester, might be unstable gfx card?
[11:11] <Jordan_U> DarkFame, I never actually timed it, let me actually time how long it takes, I am probably just estimating horribly :)
[11:11] <shiester_miester> DarkFame, I'm not really looking to debug it.  I'll just stick with "blank screen" :P
[11:12] <DarkFame> shiester_miester, just hit ctrl-alt-backspace to restart X.
[11:12] <shiester_miester> i didnt need to, it did that all by itself :P
[11:12] <DarkFame> did what?
[11:12] <shiester_miester> when the screensaver started, x restarted
[11:12] <shiester_miester> i have no idea why
[11:13] <shiester_miester> someone wasnt having a good day...
[11:13] <DarkFame> you didnt just start a new X session? ;)
[11:13] <shiester_miester> DarkFame, no...
[11:13] <shiester_miester> that _codeman_ guy was thanking everyone just before
[11:13] <lkthomas> guys, how could I add my eth into iftab ?
[11:13] <shiester_miester> and then he left with "SFTU Bitches" :/
[11:13] <DarkFame> heh
[11:14] <nj786> jordan_: help
[11:14] <nj786> ?
[11:14] <nj786> does anybody know why my computer doesnt detect my digital camera becuase i am trying to upload pics
[11:14] <jordan_> DarkFame: Yea, it took about 7 seconds, I guess I was just *really* bad at estimating (it is also 2:30 AM for me :)
[11:14] <DarkFame> 7 secs with startx?
[11:14] <jordan_> DarkFame: I guess I should time from GDM too :)
[11:14] <jordan_> DarkFame: Yes
[11:14] <DarkFame> ok
[11:15] <DarkFame> you are timing from gdm after you hit login, right?
[11:15] <shiester_miester> hmm...for some reason the cpu usage on core 2 of my cpu sits at 100%, all the time
[11:16] <DarkFame> shiester_miester, it shouldnt be hard to find out why
[11:16] <_Lucretia_> what's the best way forward with a core 2 duo install? 32 or 64 bit?
[11:16] <shiester_miester> thats what i thought...but when i looked in the processes list, the only thing in there thats even using any at all is gnome-system-monitor, which is using 1%
[11:17] <DarkFame> shiester_miester, make sure you have show all processes ticked
[11:17] <shiester_miester> and yet when i click the "resources" tab, it shows it as sitting at 100%
[11:17] <lgc_> !camera
[11:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about camera - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:17] <shiester_miester> ah, good idea
[11:17] <shiester_miester> oh there we go
[11:17] <shiester_miester> what the hell
[11:17] <lgc_> !digital
[11:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about digital - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:17] <jordan_> DarkFame: I think I just figured it out, every time that I had started from GDM it was the first time that I had logged in, every time I did it from startx I had already started all of the demons ( like beagle ) so they didn't need to be loaded again, so I just need to cut some bloat :)
[11:17] <shiester_miester> damn stupid 3rd party drivers
[11:17] <shiester_miester> begone!
[11:17] <DarkFame> jordan_, + it's all cached in memory
[11:18] <Exadus> Hello, I'm trying to install Ubuntu for the first time, can anyone help me?
[11:18] <DarkFame> shiester_miester, which driver?
[11:18] <beasty_> :)
[11:18] <shiester_miester> Exadus, thats what this channel is for :)
[11:18] <Exadus> Okay.
[11:18] <Exadus> Thing is.
[11:18] <jordan_> DarkFame: Yup. I feel like an idiot now :)
[11:18] <shiester_miester> DarkFame, one for my printer
[11:18] <shiester_miester> but it didnt even work
[11:18] <shiester_miester> and now its raping my cpu
[11:18] <DarkFame> shiester_miester, heh
[11:18] <Exadus> I'm trying to create two partions.
[11:18] <Exadus> One for Windows, one for Ubuntu.
[11:18] <DarkFame> shiester_miester, printers are the most evil devices you know.
[11:18] <shiester_miester> Exadus, that doesnt sound too difficult
[11:19] <shiester_miester> DarkFame, i havent had much exposure to the evilness of printers
[11:19] <DarkFame> Exadus, do you already have Windows installed?
[11:19] <Exadus> Yes, DarkFame
[11:19] <shiester_miester> no i have to get rid of these stupid drivers
[11:19] <DarkFame> Exadus, and it's one large partition taking up all your space?
[11:19] <Exadus> Yes, excatly.
[11:19] <shiester_miester> is it full of data?
[11:20] <DarkFame> then you have to resize that partition
[11:20] <shiester_miester> you can always resize it
[11:20] <Exadus> I'm trying to.
[11:20] <shiester_miester> yes ;)
[11:20] <shiester_miester> did you know that great minds think alike, DarkED
[11:20] <Exadus> But when I use Gnome Partion Editor.
[11:20] <shiester_miester> * DarkFame
[11:20] <shiester_miester> wrong dark...
[11:20] <Exadus> I start the resizeing.
[11:20] <Exadus> It just quits. o_O
[11:20] <Exadus> Just flips off, no error or anything.
[11:20] <shiester_miester> Exadus, you shouldnt use that
[11:20] <DarkFame> but if your partition is very fragmentet, you should run a defrag first.
[11:20] <shiester_miester> well, i wouldnt use it if i was you
[11:21] <_Lucretia_> is there work being done to get 32-bit apps to work on 64-bit without a chroot?
[11:21] <shiester_miester> you should use partition magic, thats a great software
[11:21] <Exadus> Uhm.
[11:21] <DarkFame> _Lucretia_, there is a linux32 bin you can use.
[11:21] <Exadus> Is it possible to install that on LiveCD?
[11:21] <DarkFame> gparted does the job.
[11:21] <shiester_miester> _Lucretia_, if you are using a 64bit OS, it kind of defeats the purpose to run 32bit software on it
[11:21] <ewook> gparted
[11:21] <_Lucretia_> DarkED: what do you mean? just install 32-bit?
[11:21] <shiester_miester> yes
[11:22] <_Lucretia_> shiester_miester: the site mentions not being able to use w32 codecs etc
[11:22] <DarkFame> _Lucretia_, do you have more than 4 gigs of ram?
[11:22] <Exadus> But this is weird.
[11:22] <shiester_miester> 64bit is not really as useful at the moment as it will be in the future
[11:22] <_Lucretia_> DarkED: nope, 2GB on the way
[11:22] <shiester_miester> in a year or so it will be a lot more useful
[11:22] <shiester_miester> _Lucretia_, then just use the 32bit version
[11:22] <_Lucretia_> ok thanks
[11:22] <Exadus> Can I use the inbuilt partioner in the installing program?
[11:23] <shiester_miester> 64bit is really mostly unnecessary.  you do get some speed boosts but they are counterbalanced by compatibility issues
[11:23] <morpheus_> can anyone tell me how to strip prefixes off filenames?
[11:23] <shiester_miester> well, its unnecessary at the moment.  later on it will be great
[11:23] <nalpha> hello all, I just want to know hardware compatibility does anyone already tru Dlink DGE 550 TX PCI LAN CARD? Is it works on Ubuntu?
[11:23] <nalpha> nj786: Hm.. are  your digital camera works on windows xp using driver?
[11:23] <okay> hi
[11:23] <Exadus> Anyone?
[11:24] <DarkFame> nalpha, I think most dlink cards work on ubuntu.. just search the forums.
[11:24] <jordan_> !hardware | nalpha
[11:24] <ubotu> nalpha: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[11:24] <DarkFame> Exadus, just use the installer.
[11:24] <Exadus> Okay, the installer partioner gives me only two options.
[11:24] <Exadus> Use entire disk, and manual.
[11:24] <DarkFame> Exadus, but always make backups when resizing a partition if you absolutely can't loose the data.
[11:24] <_Lucretia_> shiester_miester: thanks, useful to kno
[11:24] <shiester_miester> Exadus, if i was you, i would get my windows partition sorted out in windows before i tried to install ubuntu
[11:24] <shiester_miester> _Lucretia_, no worries ;)
[11:25] <shiester_miester> nobody is going to cry for you if linux kills windows :P  some might even cheer, but i can't guarantee that
[11:25] <mrclark01> so, I've been looking at alot of youtube clips re:ubuntu and compiz - and i am willing to make a migration from windows xp pro - question, if I want to keep xp pro but no partitions, can the ubuntu live cd create one for me, and set up a dual-boot system on my laptop?
[11:25] <mrclark01> i still need xp for particular apps that i need for med school...
[11:25] <Exadus> Does anyone know a good partioning program on Windows?
[11:25] <Assassin`> what do i need to use photoshop cs3?
[11:26] <erUSUL> morpheus_: you can try to cook up a little shell script or use mmv http://debaday.debian.net/2007/06/13/mmv-mass-moving-and-renaming-files/
[11:26] <shiester_miester> Exadus, partition magic is good
[11:26] <shiester_miester> mrclark01, what do you mean, no partitions?
[11:26] <DarkFame> mrclark01, what's your gfx card?
[11:26] <Exadus> Thanks a lot.
[11:26] <erUSUL> Exadus: a linux livecd with qparted or gparted ;)
[11:26] <mrclark01> @shiester : meaning, I only have one drive (c:\) that is how my laptop came
[11:26] <morpheus_> thanks erUSUL
[11:26] <shiester_miester> mrclark01, yes ubuntu live cd can make partitions for you if you have unpartitioned space free
[11:26] <shiester_miester> mrclark01, you will need to resize the partition, then.  probably
[11:27] <Exadus> Thing is, I already have Windows, don't want to kill it.
[11:27] <shiester_miester> yes
[11:27] <erUSUL> Exadus: imnsho Partition magic can be a pain in the ...
[11:27] <_Lucretia_> shiester_miester: well as long as it can still use both cores, I'll be happy
[11:27] <ferronica> An unexpected error has been detected by HotSpot Virtual Machine.SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0xb0550172, pid=6269, tid=3084924608,Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (1.5.0_11-b03 mixed mode, sharing) Problematic frame: C  [libglibjni-0.4.so+0x9172]  An error report file with more information is saved as hs_err_pid6269.log
[11:27] <_Lucretia_> ;D
[11:27] <Exadus> Okay.
[11:27] <shiester_miester> _Lucretia_, yes it definitely can
[11:27] <DarkFame> mrclark01, what kind of gfx card is it in your laptop?
[11:27] <nalpha> DarkFame: Thanx alot
[11:27] <mrclark01> how much space is adquate - xxGB, i only have a 100gb hdd -
[11:27] <mrclark01> @darkfame : i
[11:27] <shiester_miester> _Lucretia_, just earlier i had a problem where one of my cores was running at 100% due to a rogue nazi printer driver
[11:28] <mrclark01> 've got a geforce 7600
[11:28] <mrclark01> it's a compal hel 80 notebook
[11:28] <Exadus> erUSUL, do you think it's safe to use the partioner on liveCD without killing Windows?
[11:28] <DarkFame> mrclark01, ok.. sweet.. that works great with beryl.
[11:28] <shiester_miester> mrclark01, it depends on how much you want to install on linux
[11:28] <_Lucretia_> shiester_miester: nice
[11:28] <shiester_miester> if you want to use it as your primary OS, then maybe 20gb or more
[11:28] <jordan_> Exadus: You can resize your windows partition without reformating it, and when you install Ubuntu it will automatically add an option to boot windows when you start your computer
[11:28] <yonis> wow
[11:28] <lgc_> mor
[11:28] <shiester_miester> like thats if you want to be saving things into it all over the place
[11:29] <mrclark01> i gotchya, probably a poor question to ask @sheister re: hdd space requirements :)
[11:29] <Exadus> Okay, thanks for the straight foward answer, Jordan.
[11:29] <yonis> so, the latest ubuntu have 3d on its desktop ?
[11:29] <lgc_> morpheus, basename name.prefix prefix outputs the name w/o the prefix.
[11:29] <Anubis> you have to setup 3d desktop
[11:29] <shiester_miester> yonis, it does, but not a very good one
[11:29] <Exadus> Going to try it now, holding my thumbs.
[11:29] <shiester_miester> but its really easy to install beryl or compiz-fusion, although beryl is more stable at the moment, i think
[11:29] <DarkFame> yonis, ubuntu with full 3d desktop effects isn't out yet.. still in testing.
[11:29] <shiester_miester> or so I've heard
[11:29] <mrclark01> so what should i get the ubuntu 7.04 > and then beryl after?
[11:30] <shiester_miester> but strangely enough, i'm using compiz-fusion and im encountering less problems with it than I did in beryl
[11:30] <Exadus> Uhm..
[11:30] <shiester_miester> even though its only in alpha and beryl is way past alpha
[11:30] <ferronica> An unexpected error has been detected by HotSpot Virtual Machine.SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0xb0550172, pid=6269, tid=3084924608,Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (1.5.0_11-b03 mixed mode, sharing) Problematic frame: C  [libglibjni-0.4.so+0x9172]  An error report file with more information is saved as hs_err_pid6269.log
[11:30] <Exadus> Why isin't the first option on the installer appearing, so it partions it automaticly?
[11:30] <shiester_miester> mrclark01, yes, you dont need to get beryl beforehand.  it isnt very big :P a few mb, maybe
[11:30] <Exadus> Is something wrong?
[11:30] <DarkFame> compiz fusion is a merge of compiz and beryl, so I'm guessing it's actually more stable.
[11:30] <ferronica> any one please help me regarding AZUREUS ?
[11:31] <yonis> shiester_miester so which vers have the nice one ?
[11:31] <shiester_miester> the nice what?
[11:31] <lgc_> morpheus, 'basename name.prefix prefix' outputs the name w/o the prefix. Got it?
[11:31] <shiester_miester> and which versions of what?
[11:31] <mrclark01> right sheister - there's countless tutorials out there - just wanted to come in here to prep up prior
[11:31] <jordan_> Exadus: mrclark01 Enable compiz in 7.04 by going to System -> Preferences -> Desktop Effects ( it is installed by default but not enabled )
[11:31] <Assassin`> can i use photoshop cs3 in ubuntu?
[11:31] <shiester_miester> which versions of ubuntu have a nice window manager?
[11:31] <yonis> or, any other linux which habe 3d too ?
[11:31] <shiester_miester> all the linuxes that run gnome and kde can run them, yonis
[11:31] <Exadus> What, Jordan?
[11:31] <shiester_miester> not just ubuntu
[11:32] <DarkFame> there are plenty of other distros out there with out of the box support for beryl.
[11:32] <jordan_> ferronica: What problem are you having?
[11:32] <mrclark01> the only thing after installation is finding all the similar applications i assume...
[11:32] <DarkFame> Sayabon Linux for example.. you can try it out on the Live CD.
[11:32] <shiester_miester> yonis, its very easy to install beryl, it doesn't matter if it comes with it or not :P
[11:32] <ferronica> jordan: it get automatically closed
[11:32] <jdavis> what's the difference between compiz fusion and beryl? Is it worth changing, I've got beryl now and it works fine
[11:32] <Assassin`> go compiz fusion its much better
[11:32] <shiester_miester> mrclark01, you can also use quite a few windows applications on linux using wine
[11:32] <Assassin`> and easier to use
[11:33] <shiester_miester> Assassin`, not necessarily, some people report that its much more unstable on some systems, although it does run better on mine
[11:33] <jordan_> ferronica: What do you mean automatically closed?
[11:33] <Assassin`> i have ati radeon xpress 200 and it runs gewd
[11:33] <Assassin`> :)
[11:33] <jdavis> me too
[11:33] <jdavis> Acer laptop
[11:33] <Assassin`> fire has some problems
[11:33] <shiester_miester> its amazing that compiz-fusion is still in alpha stages...imagine how much ass its going to kick when it hits version 1.0
[11:33] <Assassin`> but ati cant handle much
[11:33] <Exadus> Guys, can anybody help with this? Why isin't the first option on the installer at the partition phase appearing, the one that partitions it automaticly?
[11:33] <shiester_miester> Assassin`, but who needs fire :P its useless
[11:34] <DarkFame> anyone tried Metisse?
[11:34] <Assassin`> i know
[11:34] <shiester_miester> Exadus, do it manually
[11:34] <Assassin`> :)
[11:34] <mrclark01> @shiester - is there a link you might know of that has good step by step tut's for a total newbie that wants to do the migration from windows? eventually, i will phase it out (windows) after i gain more exposure and comfortability in using ubunto.. but for the moment, alot/if not all, of my medical colleagues use windows and share/present things via that
[11:34] <ferronica> jordan: when i click azureus icon, window pop up and close
[11:34] <shiester_miester> partitioning is pretty easy
[11:34] <ferronica> jordan: i think crashes
[11:34] <Assassin`> i want to be able to play games while in xgl to
[11:34] <shiester_miester> mrclark01, you arent the only newbie here ;) i fit the definition too
[11:34] <jdavis> I had the same problem with Azureus
[11:34] <jordan_> ferronica: What version of java do you have installed?
[11:34] <ferronica> jordan: dont know :(
[11:35] <ferronica> jordan: new in linux world :(
[11:35] <mrclark01> i have come across this link > http://apcmag.com/6101/dualboot_windows_xp_and_ubuntu
[11:35] <Assassin`> any one here know if i can use photoshop cs3 in linux without any big problems
[11:35] <mrclark01> not sure if this is what i should follow or if there are others better known to some of y'all
[11:35] <jordan_> ferronica: run this and choose gcj: sudo update-alternatives --config java
[11:35] <Assassin`> i mean will i have to install it through wine or anything?
[11:35] <Phlosten> Assassin`, nope
[11:35] <Assassin`> why not
[11:35] <jordan_> ferronica: *gij
[11:36] <Phlosten> Assassin`, look it up at winehq.com
[11:36] <Frogzoo> !appdb | Assassin`
[11:36] <ubotu> Assassin`: Appdb is a database of apps & help for programs that run under wine: see http://appdb.winehq.org
[11:36] <shiester_miester> mrclark01, its relatively easy, if you have some familiarity with installing operating systems you shouldn't have any problems
[11:36] <ferronica> jordan: what us gij?
[11:36] <jordan_> ferronica: The open souce JVM
[11:36] <mrclark01> if i have no partition prior , they mentioned using the : GNOME Partition Editor or using the partition editor from the cd > shall i just use the latter?
[11:36] <shiester_miester> Assassin`, azureus is made using java, which in theory runs on any platform that implements the Java VM properly
[11:37] <ferronica> jordan: okay
[11:37] <ferronica> jordan: what i type first in terminal ???
[11:37] <jordan_> mrclark01: The partition manager on the cd IS gparted
[11:37] <shiester_miester> of course theory != practice, and some java apps dont run very well on other OSes :P some versions of java arent even compatible with themselves, which i find a bit silly
[11:37] <ferronica> gij : sudo
[11:37] <mrclark01> man, this is going to be something else :) hehe, i've been using this OS since windows 3.11/msdos days
[11:37] <shiester_miester> but discussion of the merits of java is OT
[11:37] <jordan_> ferronica: sudo update-alternatives --config java
[11:37] <shiester_miester> mrclark01, using windows, you mean?
[11:38] <mrclark01> i meant, i've been stuck with microsoft since the windows 3.11 / msdos days
[11:38] <shiester_miester> ah ok
[11:38] <ferronica> jordan: There are 2 alternatives which provide `java'.
[11:38] <mrclark01> and never touched/explorerd anything until now
[11:38] <jordan_> ferronica: Choose gij
[11:38] <shiester_miester> dont expect linux to be like a warm field of lovely fragrant flowers, though
[11:38] <ferronica> jordan:  1    /usr/bin/gij-wrapper-4.1
[11:38] <ferronica> jordan:  1    this one
[11:38] <jordan_> ferronica: Yes
[11:39] <shiester_miester> linux is more technical than windows...the tradeoff of having the ability to fix almost any problem with the OS is you have to KNOW how to fix them :P or be able to find out how, hence this IRC channel
[11:39] <mrclark01> no i can imagine, i only became introduced to it, after i got some help setting up my apache SSL webserver
[11:39] <shiester_miester> oh ok
[11:39] <shiester_miester> well if you are running a webserver then you are probably more than comfortable with the idea of something technical
[11:39] <mrclark01> right this and google + forunms :)
[11:39] <ferronica> jordan: this one is default -->*+        2    /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/jre/bin/java
[11:39] <shiester_miester> yes
[11:39] <ferronica> jordan: Press enter to keep the default[*] , or type selection number:
[11:39] <mrclark01> i am running bblean at the moment
[11:40] <mrclark01> but i want more :)
[11:40] <Exadus> Guys.
[11:40] <shiester_miester> Exadus
[11:40] <nj786> why cant i send pictures and files to WINDOWS XP (AIM USERS)?
[11:40] <nj786> through pidgen
[11:40] <nj786> or GAIM
[11:41] <mrclark01> but i'm not too familiar with all the detailed tech stuff - only learned via the above routes (google/irc/forums) but i feel that there are so many ways to approach the ununtu installation and preparation situation...
[11:41] <shiester_miester> nj786, no idea :/ ive never used aim
[11:41] <saxin> nj786: firewall maybe.
[11:41] <ewook> nj786: check open ports
[11:41] <shiester_miester> i think it could be an AIM problem
[11:41] <nj786> ewook: meaning?
[11:41] <ewook> or, rather, blocked ones.
[11:41] <shiester_miester> nj786, consider yourself lucky...i can't even run pidgin :P
[11:41] <mrclark01> does utorrent work on ubuntu?
[11:41] <ewook> nj786: got a router?
[11:41] <shiester_miester> mrclark01, through wine, yes
[11:41] <saxin> mrclark01: yes, with wine
[11:41] <ewook> nj786: or software fw?
[11:41] <nj786> ewook, yes
[11:41] <mrclark01> ok - cool...
[11:41] <nj786> router
[11:42] <ferronica> jordan: done after that ???
[11:42] <ewook> nj786: check ports for aim-protocol for filetransfer, open 'em.
[11:42] <yotta_> is there any way to supress auto-mount of certain devices?  (USB in particular,)
[11:42] <nj786> ewook: lol how mind showing me?
[11:42] <makkalot> Hi everyone i want ,which program of ubuntu manages and handles the package signaturing?I read something about apt-secure but it is not enough,i need some source code?
[11:42] <jordan_> ferronica: Yup, now just open Azureus :)
[11:42] <Exadus> I prepared two partitions, one with 140002 MB, one with 60044 MB, and there's a "Fromat?" check box, both of them have it checked, and I can't take it off, I don't want to format my Windows partition!
[11:43] <ferronica> jordan: yeah warning
[11:43] <Exadus> What do I need to do?
[11:43] <nj786> ewook: ?
[11:43] <ewook> nj786: well, with your router? http://portforward.com/
[11:43] <ferronica> jordan: shuts down tidly
[11:43] <jordan_> mrclark01: One thing to know is that there are a lot of people that put howto's on their blogs for traffic, I don't trust them and they generally give bad advice, anyone actually knowlageable and trying to help would add to wiki.ubuntu.com instead
[11:43] <mrclark01> any links which you might know of that shows why i should use ubuntu and say bye bye to windows for some more "mental validity?" :)
[11:43] <scead> can someone recommend me a music player that has a graphic equalizer that isn't XMMS please?
[11:43] <scead> I can't find anything
[11:43] <ewook> nj786: heading out for lunch right now :)
[11:43] <ewook> good luck.
[11:43] <Myrtti> scead: audacious, beep-media-player?
[11:43] <erUSUL> scead: beep media player
[11:44] <nj786> ewook: dang
[11:44] <nj786> lol
[11:44] <DjViper> scead: amarok?
[11:44] <Exadus> Anyone?
[11:44] <mrclark01> i totally know what you mean @jordan > e-commerce :) adsense + ppc, seo , affiliates :)
[11:44] <scead> im not really after one that is like xmms either
[11:44] <scead> i haven't tried amarok yet
[11:44] <jordan_> mrclark01: Weather or not you should depends on what you do and what hardware you have, it may not be right for you, but there is no risk in a dual boot system
[11:44] <scead> isn't it only kde?
[11:44] <DjViper> scead: no
[11:44] <ferronica> jordan: thanx :)
[11:44] <scead> does it play nice with gnome?
[11:44] <Exadus> Is nobody going to help me. :(
[11:45] <DarkFame> it's a kde app, but it runs in gnome, xfce etc. too.
[11:45] <jordan_> ferronica: np
[11:45] <nj786> how do i check ports for aim-protocol for filetransfe?
[11:45] <mrclark01> where can i find some more info on that @ jordan?
[11:45] <mrclark01> is that in the wiki?
[11:45] <DjViper> scead: yes
[11:45] <scead> okay, i'll try that one
[11:45] <scead> thanks :)
[11:46] <jordan_> scead: Any KDE app can be run in Gnome, and vice versa, they just look out of place and require more memory for KDE libraries not used in Gnome ( again this is also true of Gnome apps in KDE )
[11:46] <mrclark01> ok, thanks for the guidance guys - last question > which forum should I check out?
[11:46] <jordan_> mrclark01: ubuntuforums.org
[11:46] <mrclark01> to see what others have said, stickys... etc, that way i can find the answers to questions that have been repeatedly asked
[11:47] <mrclark01> cool @jordan - thanks
[11:47] <scead> jordan_, hmm, out of place eh
[11:47] <scead> i like conformity
[11:48] <catharsis_> can someone help me figure out how get my netgear wg511T wireless network card to work with feisty? Ive tried everything i think in my network settings menu! =(
[11:48] <scead> aragh, what do you use jordan_ ? :P
[11:48] <jordan_> catharsis_: What chipset?
[11:48] <catharsis_> its a netgear adapter, do you need the chipset still?
[11:48] <jordan_> scead: I don't listen to music much, so I don't use anything :)
[11:49] <scead> haha, okay
[11:49] <jordan_> scead: sorry
[11:49] <scead> np
[11:49] <scead> DjViper, what do you use :P
[11:49] <DjViper> scead: amarok
[11:49] <jordan_> catharsis_: I could figure it out but I am lazy :)
[11:49] <scead> do you use gnome with it?
[11:50] <catharsis_> =/
[11:50] <DjViper> scead: yup
[11:50] <DarkFame> banshee is nice too though
[11:50] <MasseR> Hi. I have a nvidia 8600 gts, and I'm trying to start xorg. I have nv driver loaded, and it complains that device not found
[11:50] <DarkFame> MasseR, I think you have to use the nvidia driver.
[11:50] <MasseR> I tried with it
[11:51] <MasseR> Didn't complain but didnt show any picture
[11:51] <jordan_> catharsis_: It looks like it uses Atheros, try System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager
[11:52] <poof> hey
[11:52] <poof> #xchat
[11:52] <_Codeman_> o.O
[11:52] <poof> join #xchat
[11:52] <_Codeman_> me?
[11:52] <jordan_> poof: /join
[11:52] <catharsis_> well it seems atheros is in use
[11:52] <poof> thx
[11:53] <Exadus> Okay, I know what to do now, but when I try to edit the partition on the ubuntu installer's partitioner, it only shows two options, changing the format ((Currently set at NTFS.)) and mount point (( Whatever that is. )), how do I resize it?
[11:53] <morpheus_> can you use wildcards to create multiple symlinks?
[11:53] <shiester_miester> morpheus_, you can use them to win at UNO ;)
[11:53] <scead> DjViper, this is exactly what i am looking for, thanks mate
[11:53] <DjViper> scead: np
[11:53] <morpheus_> UNO?
[11:53] <Lorne_Kun> the application "terminal" fails to start.
[11:53] <Lorne_Kun> how do i fix it :)
[11:54] <Exadus> Can anybody help me? When I try to edit the partition on the ubuntu installer's partitioner, it only shows two options, changing the format ((Currently set at NTFS.)) and mount point (( Whatever that is. )), how do I resize it?
[11:54] <shiester_miester> Exadus, no idea
[11:54] <Exadus> Oh crap.
[11:55] <shiester_miester> ubuntu killed windows?
[11:55] <Exadus> I don't think so.
[11:55] <shiester_miester> aww
[11:55] <shiester_miester> oh well
[11:55] <shiester_miester> there's always tomorrow
[11:55] <jordan_> Exadus: You can change it in the properties somewhere ( only used the new partitioner once and didn't like it ) Gparted has a better interface if you want to use it to resize your NTFS partition it's on the LiveCD in System -> Administration -> Gnome Partition Editor
[11:55] <Exadus> I can't resize the Windows partition.
[11:55] <mundungus> i fink thats gud news!
[11:55] <Exadus> Jordan.
[11:55] <Exadus> Gparted crashed on me.
[11:56] <metbsd> yes?
[11:56] <shiester_miester> gotta go people
[11:56] <shiester_miester> cya
[11:56] <jordan_> Exadus: Did you check the integrity of the CD?
[11:56] <Exadus> Yup.
[11:56] <mundungus> cya
[11:56] <Exadus> No problems.
[11:57] <jordan_> Exadus: Did Gparted give you an error?
[11:57] <Exadus> Nope.
[11:57] <Exadus> It crashed while resizeing.
[11:57] <_Codeman_> what other command prompt editors are there besides nano... I removed nano for some stupid reason :/
[11:57] <jordan_> _Codeman_: vim
[11:58] <jordan_> _Codeman_: It's not exactly intuitive though ( but it is verry powerfull )
[11:58] <Frogzoo> Exadus: which distro?
[11:58] <Exadus> Ubuntu.
[11:58] <Exadus> Feisty.
[11:58] <Exadus> The newest one, downloaded it yesterday.
[11:58] <_Codeman_> k, thanks jordan_
[11:58] <Frogzoo> Exadus: well that's very unfortunate
[11:59] <Exadus> Indeed.
[11:59] <jordan_> Exadus: If you actually want to learn how to use it ( I recommend it if you do a lot of text editing / coding ) run "vimtutor" in a terminal
[11:59] <DarthShrine> Is there a way I can make my VTs have a 1280x800 framebuffer? (Intel 945GM)
[12:00] <jordan_> Exadus: Sorry, that was for _Codeman_
[12:00] <DjViper> _Codeman_: pico
[12:00] <raavi> Does any one experience freeze with feisty on AMD 64 X2?
[12:00] <Exadus> OK.
[12:00] <_Codeman_> Also, my new gpu is a GeForce FX 5500 (oc) so when I ran the reconfigure thing, I selected "nv" for the driver and when I did 'startx' it gave me a no screens found error... any suggestions?
[12:00] <Exadus> So, is there anything else you can advise me?
[12:00] <jordan_> DjViper: pico is proprietary
[12:02] <jordan_> Exadus: Well I know that gparted tries to fail early ( IE before anything is actually changed permanently ) if it is going to fail so hopefully nothing has actually happened to your NTFS partition
[12:02] <raavi> Need some help for the problems with AMD64 X2....
[12:03] <jordan_> Exadus: But I would not install Ubuntu from that CD at least untill you can figure out what is wrong with the partition and / or why gparted failed
[12:03] <GhoSt_DoG> !! codecs

[12:04] <jordan_> Exadus: If it was an error in parted, then the same error will occur with the installer's partitioner
[12:04] <Exadus> Trying again.
[12:04] <dogson> raavi, disable cool n quiet?
[12:04] <doojin> hi
[12:04] <doojin> I'm on ubuntu
[12:04] <doojin> Ubuntu doesn't recognize my usb memory, why not?
[12:04] <jordan_> doojin: What format is it?
[12:04] <Exadus> Holding my thu- Gah..
[12:05] <doojin> I don't nkow
[12:05] <doojin> I don't know
[12:05] <Exadus> Should I defragment my harddrive before installing?
[12:05] <raavi> dogson: Do you also experience random freezes? Well, I own a Fujitus-Siemens Scaleo J ....
[12:05] <jordan_> Exadus: I have heard people reccomend that
[12:05] <doojin> jordan_ : what is the format by the way?
[12:06] <jordan_> doojin: The file system it uses
[12:06] <doojin> jordan_ : I don't know
[12:06] <doojin> jordan_ : I don't know about it
[12:06] <raavi> dogson: You tip is more meaningful, I guess it is because of IRQs...
[12:06] <DjViper> Exadus: is it formated?
[12:06] <jordan_> doojin: Is this a flash drive or an external HD?
[12:06] <doojin> flash drive
[12:07] <Xsylotte> q01z: php dev software package ?
[12:07] <DjViper> Exadus: erm.. is it quickformated?
[12:07] <Exadus> No, DjViper.
[12:07] <dogson> raavi, i couldnt even install ubuntu first, it just froze and rebooted. then i disabled the cool n quiet option in bios and it worked
[12:07] <Xsylotte> upls
[12:07] <DjViper> Exadus: ah okay
[12:07] <doojin> jordan_ : flash drive
[12:07] <Xsylotte> q01z: php-dev software package ?
[12:07] <Xsylotte> stupid autofill :D
[12:07] <Exadus> And by the way.
[12:07] <Exadus> Can Linux run new PC games using Wine?
[12:07] <Exadus> And is Wine complicated?
[12:07] <jordan_> doojin: Do any USB devices work?
[12:07] <doojin> jordan_ : yes
[12:07] <doojin> jordan_ : my usb mouse
[12:08] <jordan_> Exadus: Some and Sometimes :)
[12:08] <_Codeman_> one more question, how do I enable my usb wifi card from the command prompt, kde seems to do it for me so, I never bothered figuring out how >.<
[12:08] <jordan_> !appdb | Exadus
[12:08] <ubotu> Exadus: Appdb is a database of apps & help for programs that run under wine: see http://appdb.winehq.org
[12:08] <raavi> dogson: Do mind telling more about your PC, so that it is possible to post the bug in linux-kernel mailing list.
[12:09] <doojin> jordan_ : hello?
[12:09] <jordan_> doojin: I don't know :(
[12:09] <jordan_> doojin: You could try mounting it manually
[12:09] <fredrik_> hey, I need to know how to install most developer tools
[12:09] <doojin> jordan_ : how?
[12:09] <fredrik_> im trying to compile my own package
[12:10] <jordan_> fredrik_: "sudo apt-get install buid-essential" ?
[12:10] <Exadus> WOOT! :D
[12:10] <dogson> raavi, well i use a msi k8n sli motherboard, i didnt post the bug becouse i think it is a problem is with the motherboards bios in the acpi table or something
[12:10] <Exadus> I might format my harddrive tommorrow.

[12:10] <Exadus> Wine supports Europa Universalis III, to me, that means, go to heck Windows. :P
[12:11] <Exadus> So tommorrow, no more Windows.
[12:11] <Exadus> 'Till tommorrow folks!
[12:12] <jordan_> doojin: Try running "sudo fdkisk -l" and see if it shows up
[12:12] <_Codeman_> jordan_: do you know how to enable a usb wifi card from the command prompt by any chance?
[12:13] <raavi> dogson: Thanks dude...I will work on a meaningful bug-report.
[12:13] <jordan_> _Codeman_: Enable in what way? If it is supported then you can just use iwconfig to connect to networks
[12:14] <_Codeman_> jordan: Yeah, I think that's what I need, thanks

[12:26] <AnRkey> i am trying to ssh into a box that has been reinstalled

[12:27] <AnRkey> how can i get ssh to use the new key?
[12:31] <m0u5e> anyone know why pidgin isnt in the ubuntu repos yet? :(
[12:31] <Madpilot> m0u5e, because Ubuntu repos are only given security updates after release. Pidgin will be in the next release of Ubuntu, in November
[12:32] <defrysk> november ?
[12:32] <defrysk> that late ?
[12:33] <m0u5e> madpilot: so it won't even be released as a backport?
[12:33] <Madpilot> m0u5e, it might make it out as a backport
[12:33] <defrysk> m0u5e, if you are desperate get is at getdeb.net
[12:33] <Madpilot> October, sorry, not November
[12:33] <m0u5e> i kinda consider it just a continuation of GAIM, even though its called pidgin now :(
[12:33] <m0u5e> madpilot / defrysk: thx :)
[12:34] <Madpilot> actually, it will be November - I'm tired and making dumb mistakes
[12:34] <Kwitschibo> why so late? fedora added pidin in fedora core 6 too
[12:34] <defrysk> hmm so the gibbon will be late then
[12:34] <defrysk> Kwitschibo, why why why
[12:34] <Kwitschibo> its just a nw name
[12:34] <Burn> hello, can somebody tell me till when ubuntu edgy has updates?
[12:34] <Kwitschibo> and the libs has new names
[12:35] <Burn> no LTS heh?
[12:35] <defrysk> Burn, updates when security demands it
[12:35] <Madpilot> defrysk, damn, I really am tired. x.10 is of course October, not Nov... I think I need to get my carcass to bed...
[12:35] <Burn> defrysk: even if the general 2 years are over?
[12:35] <defrysk> Burn, after end of life no more updates
[12:36] <Burn> I've a dell poweredge 860 server here, but I can't use dapper, the RAID isn't detected
[12:36] <defrysk> Madpilot, I think you do ;)
[12:36] <Burn> that's an LSI Logic SAS controller
[12:36] <Burn> are there any solutions to use this with dapper?
[12:37] <defrysk> Burn, maybe the latest stable release of debian is a solution then
[12:37] <Burn> defrysk: how long will there be uptodate packages with etch?
[12:38] <defrysk> Burn, usually from release on about a year and a half
[12:38] <Burn> hm, edgy will be supported for 1,5 years not?
[12:38] <Burn> from today
[12:39] <defrysk> Burn, when edgy was released + a year an a half
[12:39] <Kwitschibo> you need real LTS? try CentOS ;-)
[12:39] <defrysk> ahwell time for a coffee
[12:40] <Burn> defrysk: hm, the machine should run plesk
[12:40] <defrysk> Burn, plesk ?
[12:40] <Burn> defrysk: a sort of web control panel
[12:41] <defrysk> Burn, I have hardly any server knowledge
[12:42] <m0u5e> hmm its not under backports... i hope pidgin is added to ubuntu repos soon :)

[01:00] <ubuntu_> im on my LIVE CD
[01:00] <ubuntu_> can U help?
[01:00] <daan> nj786: I hope but I can't guarantee it
[01:01] <andylockran> kyle__: nobody likes software piracy - when I switched to linux (originally slackware) I decided to get everything on my pc completely legal
[01:01] <pim> ubuntu. you can use gaim. it's and all in one program
[01:01] <nj786> daan: ok how do i do a test page?
[01:01] <ubuntu_> pim
[01:01] <ubuntu_> is that the only way
[01:01] <daan> nj786: Go to the properties of the printer there you can print a test page
[01:01] <pim> well. i use linux. 4 days now. and it works
[01:01] <daan> pim: congratulations
[01:02] <pim> thanks daan.
[01:02] <rich__> ubuntu_ why cant you install?
[01:02] <nj786> daan: ok how is it suposed to come out
[01:02] <kyle__> doesn't mean that they should make my computer be attacted by loads of sh*t
[01:02] <daan> nj786: What do you mean
[01:02] <nj786> daan: like the test page mine printed out like 5 or 8 lines
[01:02] <pim> i think if he wanted to know if you meant it with some sarcasm
[01:02] <kyle__> i took it off and i was still gettin lame things happening
[01:02] <pim> of oops. nevermind :)
[01:03] <Xsylotte> q; is there any rar password cracker ?
[01:03] <kyle__> my windows was not a copy too
[01:03] <Xsylotte> i've forgot pass of my archive :(
[01:03] <daan> nj786: Don't know about that never done it before myself :P
[01:03] <nj786> daan: and also a bunch of white and black bars
[01:03] <nj786> lol
[01:03] <kyle__> i just don't like the though of not having control over ur own computer
[01:03] <nj786> ok how do i chek if scanning works>
[01:03] <kyle__> it's harsh
[01:03] <daan> nj786: You can try the scanning part with the program xsane
[01:03] <kyle__> *thought
[01:03] <nj786> daan: where can i find that?
[01:04] <daan> nj786: It's somewhere in the menu
[01:04] <abhi12345698562> hi..
[01:04] <daan> nj786: The applications menu
[01:04] <kyle__> anyway, this os is kl
[01:04] <Xsylotte> ??
[01:04] <Xsylotte> anyone ?
[01:04] <kyle__> i didn't realise how much kl freeware software u could get for it
[01:04] <Xsylotte> !ubotu rar
[01:04] <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
[01:05] <nj786> daan: OK Now how do i scan something from xsane
[01:05] <NET||abuse> Hi guys.. i've lost sound on flash.. it was there before.. now,, ummm, gone.. i must have done something to kill the esd sound driver or something...
[01:05] <daan> kyle__: It's great isn't it
[01:05] <NET||abuse> but i'm not sure what i've done....
[01:05] <Xsylotte> !ubotu rar password crack
[01:05] <NET||abuse> can anyone help me?
[01:05] <daan> nj786: try to find it it's not that hard
[01:05] <kyle__> if only the internet was free, which i think it should be
[01:05] <codecaine> hi when im in gnome on a usb ntfs how can I delete a file from it in the gui without it acutally still being there just moved to a .trash
[01:05] <codecaine> I know in terminal you just use rm and its gone
[01:06] <nj786> daan: i mean as in do i push the scan button on my printer or go 2 xsane and scan?
[01:06] <kyle__> one thing though, how do i get my dvd to work?
[01:06] <andylockran> kyle__: it's fantastic - In the last three years there has been a good change towards easier usability
[01:06] <rich__> kyle__ to play video dvd's?
[01:06] <daan> nj786: just try it, you're gonna have a hard time with ubuntu if you won't just try some things
[01:06] <NET||abuse> kyle__, you have to probably get the css2 lib for decoding dvd's
[01:06] <kyle__> yep
[01:06] <neopsyche> hello, is there any way to re-size / make a new partition on an already partitioned ntfs disk? i have completely partitioned a 250gig disk with ntfs but now want to put ubuntu on it.
[01:06] <rich__> what NET said
[01:06] <neopsyche> half windows / half ubuntu on other side of disk
[01:07] <daan> neopsyche: gparted
[01:07] <neopsyche> But i dont want to lose my windows installatoin
[01:07] <neopsyche> gparted?
[01:07] <neopsyche> whats that?
[01:07] <kyle__> fudge, this OS is so smooth, i could eat it
[01:07] <daan> neopsyche: A program
[01:07] <neopsyche> ok
[01:07] <neopsyche> ;-)
[01:07] <daan> neopsyche: You can download a livecd
[01:07] <neopsyche> thanks
[01:07] <neopsyche>  I have live cd.. for ubuntu
[01:07] <rich__> sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2
[01:07] <daan> neopsyche: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[01:07] <NET||abuse> kyle__, css2 lib isn't available in default debs as far as i remember, google libcss2 or feisty dvd playback and you'll probably find the answers...
[01:07] <neopsyche> ok thanks
[01:08] <ZuluKunt> a live cd for ubuntu might not be a good idea, it has bad hardware support
[01:08] <ZuluKunt> get knoppix instead
[01:08] <kyle__> okie doki, i'm sure i will work it out somehow anyway
[01:08] <kyle__> there's always my dvd player lol
[01:08] <kyle__> don't really watch movies on pc anyway
[01:08] <daan> kyle__: Totem xine works great
[01:09] <kyle__> k, i'll give it a go
[01:09] <nj786> daan: ok its not working and on xsane theres no key for scan now
[01:09] <NET||abuse> kyle__, haha, nah.. the libdvdcss2 is dead easy.. once it's installed.. all the dvd playback software just uses it automatically
[01:09] <ZuluKunt> mplayer for video
[01:09] <daan> kyle__: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_DVD_playback_capability
[01:09] <NET||abuse> ZuluKunt, nuts to that.. vlc is great
[01:09] <Amit> hello
[01:09] <kyle__> got the link for libdvdcss2?
[01:10] <daan> nj786: Well you may be out of luck for the scanner part i'll look into it
[01:10] <ZuluKunt> vlc might be good, but mplayer uses a lot of keystrokes to do stuff
[01:10] <ZuluKunt> == faster
[01:11] <NET||abuse> :P well.. i just like simplicity and reliability
[01:11] <ZuluKunt> and it's very simple, less bulky
[01:11] <NET||abuse> vlc just plays stuff... any stuff
[01:11] <rich__> loads of stuff
[01:12] <ZuluKunt> vlc also has "features" such as changing the tones of colors, applying filters
[01:12] <ZuluKunt> i don't think anyone would need that
[01:12] <ZuluKunt> more "features" = bulky and bloated
[01:12] <kyle__> are external harddrives anygood for running ubuntu?  I want to use my internal for windows xp cos i need to use Cubase
[01:12] <ZuluKunt> mplayer just plays the video
[01:12] <nj786> daan: it doesnt print either
[01:12] <kyle__> i make music
[01:12] <rich__> kyle__ depends if you can boot from usb
[01:13] <kyle__> i think this can
[01:13] <ubuntu_> how do i install vista and ubuntu both on pentium 4
[01:13] <ubuntu_> rich
[01:13] <nj786> daan: it print like 1 line and half of it
[01:13] <ubuntu_> plz tell
[01:13] <kyle__> it's kinda new, only had it for just under two years
[01:13] <ubuntu_> how do i install
[01:13] <daan> nj786: Well, it should work...
[01:13] <ubuntu_> both
[01:13] <ubuntu_> ubuntu and vista
[01:13] <rich__> vista is a dick and will mess with the MBR
[01:13] <daan> nj786: You can try to remove the printer and select the other entry when you add it
[01:13] <rich__> there will be lots of guides to talk you through it
[01:13] <ubuntu_> whts that
[01:13] <ubuntu_> do i first start
[01:14] <Lorne_Kun> ubuntu_, please ask your questions only on one line :p
[01:14] <kyle__> would u say usb hard drives are slow???  or are they just the same as internal?
[01:14] <rich__> do you have vista installed already?
[01:14] <rich__> kyle__ they are very slow in comparison
[01:14] <Jack_Sparrow> usb are slower than internal
[01:14] <ubuntu_> rich no
[01:14] <ubuntu_> i want to install I m using live cd now
[01:14] <NET||abuse> ubuntu_, start with vista and make sure you only use 1/4 of the driver(cause that'll be all u use after ubuntu is installed cause you'll just stop using winblows) then install ubuntu after, it'll detect vista and dual boot i believe (havn't done with vista myself, just xp)
[01:14] <rich__> it is best to install vista first if you want both
[01:15] <kyle__> hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, i could just put another hdd in my pc i guess?
[01:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Easier to install vista first then linux/ubuntu
[01:15] <ubuntu_> ok so first vista/xp
[01:15] <NET||abuse> yup
[01:15] <rich__> yeah
[01:15] <ubuntu_> then Ubuntu
[01:15] <rich__> ;)
[01:15] <Jack_Sparrow> yep
[01:15] <kyle__> don't like the idea of putting two os on one hdd, might be messy
[01:15] <ZuluKunt> ubuntu_, read some manual
[01:15] <ubuntu_> Jack rich zulu
[01:15] <ubuntu_> thanks
[01:15] <rich__> kyle__ gparted has never let me down
[01:16] <Jack_Sparrow> kyle.. it isnt a problem
[01:16] <ZuluKunt> ubuntu_, no one can post a complete guide on how to install vista and ubuntu
[01:16] <ZuluKunt> up in here
[01:16] <ubuntu_> some hints
[01:16] <kyle__> k, i just don't know how to use gparted that well
[01:16] <ubuntu_> or where to find
[01:16] <Jack_Sparrow> kyle.. get the gparted livecd...
[01:16] <rich__> google: vista ubuntu dual boot
[01:16] <ubuntu_> guidance for dual boot
[01:16] <kyle__> don't really get stuff like that lol
[01:16] <ubuntu_> ok
[01:16] <ubuntu_> search thru google
[01:17] <Lorne_Kun> gparted hates me :p
[01:17] <jzilla> hello friends - i just installed the package ubuntu-desktop from a kubuntu install - upon logging into gnome, i have no title bars. what could be the problem?
[01:17] <Lorne_Kun> but thats ok
[01:17] <Lorne_Kun> i hate it too, so the feeling is mutual.
[01:17] <NET||abuse> anyone know what i should do to diagnose my flash sound infirefox? lost sound for some reason (other programs still work fine except gismo, no mic device available it says) so flash sound worked before and now it doesn't,,, not sure what i did,,, and i wanna watch some harry enfield on youtube
[01:17] <ZuluKunt> google or webcrawler
[01:17] <ubuntu_> is Rich and all thnx from India
[01:17] <EvilGizmo> Hallo! I got a problem with my TV card. The chip is TV 7131. I can't get it work... Any Idea?
[01:18] <ZuluKunt> Lorne_Kun, gparted and qtparted never did the job for me.. i just use fdisk
[01:18] <kyle__> anyway, thatx for the help, i'm off to learn how to use this os
[01:18] <rich__> NET have you checked system preferences sound
[01:18] <NET||abuse> also gismo was working fine also.. then stopped working about the same time..
[01:18] <ZuluKunt> GUI tools "always" fail
[01:18] <m1r> hello
[01:18] <codecaine> why can't feisty delete files off ntfs in gui it puts it in a invisible .trash and you only can delete it in terminal
[01:19] <daan> codecaine: Use Shift-Delete
[01:19] <NET||abuse> rich__, what do i need to check in sounds?
[01:19] <EvilGizmo> Hallo! I got a problem with my TV card. The chip is TV 7131. I can't get it work... Any Idea?
[01:19] <rich__> are you using alsa?
[01:19] <NET||abuse> autodetect it says
[01:19] <ubuntu_> is live cd as effective as complete installation of ubuntu
[01:19] <ubuntu_> rich
[01:19] <apfel_> anyone using the Samsung q30 or q40 with ubuntu?
[01:19] <rich__> if you hit the test button do you get a tone
[01:19] <ubuntu_> thats for u?
[01:19] <codecaine> daan that will delete andy .trash bins on all drives you been deleting on or just the current directory?
[01:20] <ubuntu_> I hve pentium 4
[01:20] <EvilGizmo> autodetect detects it but TVtime gives no picture
[01:20] <Jack_Sparrow> ZuluKunt: that is a broad and incorrect statement
[01:20] <rich__> no ubuntu_ the live cd is very slow in comparison
[01:20] <ubuntu_> yes rich
[01:20] <ubuntu_> i find it slow
[01:20] <daan> codecaine: just the current selected file or directory
[01:20] <ZuluKunt> Jack_Sparrow, i know.. that's why i put the quotes
[01:20] <daan> codecaine: It bypasses the trash
[01:20] <codecaine> ty
[01:20] <ubuntu_> what will i miss if i do not install vista/xp
[01:20] <daan> codecaine: you're welcome
[01:21] <ubuntu_> rich r u there
[01:21] <rich__> games
[01:21] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntu_: the live cd .. in this case gparted is just as safe and easier to use..
[01:21] <new> hi all ... who can help me to install compiz fusion?
[01:22] <XISPA> WENAS ATODOS
[01:22] <ZuluKunt> new, #ubuntu-effects can help you
[01:22] <ubuntu_>  what will i miss if i do not install vista/xp
[01:22] <filthpig> ubuntu_: You'll miss the ability to play games flawlessly
[01:22] <NET||abuse> rich__, will i have to logout to make changes in preferences -> sounds happen?
[01:22] <daan> ubuntu_: Spyware and viruses
[01:23] <ubuntu_>  ok
[01:23] <vlt> vlt: Setting HIBERNATE_MODE=platform in /etc/default/acpi-support fixed the inaudible audio upon resuming from suspend-to-disk for me (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/80893)
[01:23] <ChrisNor> I have partition problems
[01:23] <ubuntu_> games is not required
[01:23] <Ivis> Ubuntu is free for viruses

[01:23] <ubuntu_> but i require graphics and video
[01:23] <rich__> i dont know
[01:23] <daan> ubuntu_: Microsoft Word
[01:23] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntu_: I keep a copy of XP on the system but I pulled the internet ability from it..
[01:23] <rich__> did you get a tone?
[01:23] <ZuluKunt> you'll miss programs that run on windows only.. but if using the computer = watching movies, editing text, other simple tasks, then ubuntu would be better
[01:23] <ZuluKunt> i keep my XP to run 3dsmax
[01:24] <ubuntu_> Jack u said u hve xp too
[01:24] <metbsd> we all have xp
[01:24] <N> Though you can run certain windows programs with Wine

[01:26] <ubuntu_> other drives I cannot c
[01:26] <codecaine> I formatted a usb harddrive ext3 but only way I can place files on it if im root or sudoing anyway to change that?
[01:26] <fleky> en to vuestro muertos me voi
[01:26] <ubuntu_> Jack i m using live cd
[01:26] <Lefteris> hello there
[01:26] <ubuntu_> that is all i have with pentium 4
[01:26] <ZuluKunt> ubuntu_, XP doesn't know how to read/write to linux and mac partitions
[01:27] <AlexC_> fleky english only please,
[01:27] <N> hello
[01:27] <daan> codecaine: what does your fstab say
[01:27] <ubuntu_> Agreed
[01:27] <codecaine> Kulukunt theres actaully drives do xp can do it
[01:27] <AlexC_> ZuluKunt: it _can_ do, but not my default
[01:27] <AlexC_> s/my/by
[01:27] <ZuluKunt> codecaine, mount it with -o uid=1000
[01:27] <codecaine> its a usb drive its not in fstab
[01:27] <ZuluKunt> codecaine, or whatever your user id is
[01:27] <m1r> broken partition table, help needed
[01:27] <rich__> yeah codecaine you need to remount it with, yep
[01:28] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntu_: XP does not want to support a free OS...
[01:28] <Lefteris> i got a problem i try every thing that the guide at ubuntuforum is told about sagem 800 usb modem install but nothing happens cause when i try compile the uegale-atm i get an error any one had the same prob?
[01:28] <N> try running fsck
[01:28] <codecaine> can I right click and do that in gnome so it boots up like that all the time?
[01:28] <rambo3> Lefteris, error is ?
[01:28] <ZuluKunt> AlexC_, there is no driver for reiserfs read/write, there was a beta one and it screwed up my windows i had to reinstall
[01:28] <ubuntu_> Jack I understand
[01:28] <AlexC_> ZuluKunt: I'm not sure about ReiserFS, but there is for EXT3
[01:28] <ubuntu_> but i want to recover data in
[01:28] <Lefteris> it takes 3 parameters but it only needs 2
[01:28] <ubuntu_> my pc
[01:29] <k31th> hi guys, having some problems with Xen... it should work out of the box on feisty right ?
[01:29] <ubuntu_> i do not want to loose it
[01:29] <Jack_Sparrow> You can do it with the live cd
[01:29] <k31th> !xen
[01:29] <ubotu> XEN is a virtual machine monitor for x86 that supports execution of multiple guest operating systems with unprecedented levels of performance and resource isolation. Information on installing it for Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenOnEdgy
[01:29] <ZuluKunt> AlexC_, i know.. i meant generally and by default.. i know there are workarounds
[01:29] <AlexC_> ZuluKunt: oh yeah, default it can't
[01:29] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntu_: You just dont have the drives mounted so that they are visable
[01:30] <daan> codecaine: I think you can make an antry in /etc/fstab
[01:30] <seodoa> So I just installed Ubuntu on my boyfriend's computer, and, while I can connect to his router in the installation environment, I cannot connect in the newly installed desktop environment... In fact, I cannot even ping the router.  Both environments seem to use the same driver, and both environments use appropriate /etc/network/interfaces files... Anyone know what might be causing the problem?
[01:30] <daan> codecaine: Then it would be permanent
[01:30] <TheInfinity> seodoa: network cable broken=
[01:31] <ZuluKunt> codecaine, what daan said
[01:31] <Jack_Sparrow> seodoa: Yes, the problem is his girlfriend messing with his computer..
[01:31] <ubuntu_> jack i understand that
[01:31] <ZuluKunt> lol
[01:31] <ubuntu_> first i install vista/xp
[01:31] <Busata> xp
[01:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Sorry, just after 4am and not awake yet
[01:31] <ubuntu_> and recover data
[01:31] <Busata> don't install vista
[01:31] <ubuntu_> ok
[01:32] <seodoa> TheInfinity: Why would the network cable work for the install environment and Windows but not the desktop environment?
[01:32] <N> forget vista
[01:32] <ubuntu_> and then i can safely install ubuntu
[01:32] <codecaine> I should mount it by id huh like /dev/disk/by-id/usb-WD_5000AAKB_Externa_57442D574341505732383236383237-0:0-part1
[01:32] <Busata> for me it's just a windows way to show off aero, but after working 3 months with it, I kicked it off my HD :p
[01:32] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntu_: What?  no..
[01:32] <ubuntu_> bcause i do not know how formatting ubuntu does
[01:32] <Ivis> tell me plz ubuntu blogs
[01:32] <TheInfinity> seodoa: ah okay ... most times you have a ipv6 problem then - in kde this sometimes happens
[01:32] <daan> seodoa: So it worked with the livecd but not with the installed version?
[01:32] <rich__> how have you got eth0 configured?
[01:32] <Lefteris> any ideas?
[01:33] <seodoa> daan: that is right
[01:33] <ubuntu_> i do not want clean up my data while installing ubuntu
[01:33] <daan> seodoa: what does ifconfig say
[01:33] <ubuntu_> Jack is that ok
[01:33] <seodoa> TheInfinity: I tried blacklisting ipv6, but it didn't help any
[01:33] <ZuluKunt> ubuntu_, then read some guides so you REALLY know what you're doing
[01:33] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntu_: To define your problem.. you are running a live cd to try and recover data from a crashed xp box?  One problem at a time.
[01:33] <Ivis> tell me plz ubuntu blogs please
[01:33] <ubuntu_> where do i get those guides?
[01:34] <N> actually, you may want to try a distro with ntfs drivers
[01:34] <ubuntu_> no
[01:34] <rich__> google them
[01:34] <ZuluKunt> google
[01:34] <ubuntu_> or Yes
[01:34] <N> or dd the drive
[01:34] <ZuluKunt> or webcrawler
[01:34] <ubuntu_> bit confused
[01:34] <ubuntu_> i m using ubuntu
[01:34] <ubuntu_> i do not hve installation cd of xp
[01:34] <ubuntu_> i hve vista cd but ram is 512
[01:34] <N> try ebay or amazon
[01:35] <rich__> forget vista then
[01:35] <seodoa> daan: I can&t tell you exactly without a reboot... but it looked fine, except for the fact that it had not received an IP address from the router
[01:35] <ubuntu_> i thought that i would install vista
[01:35] <N> or buy ram
[01:35] <ubuntu_> with this ram
[01:35] <DarthShrine> How would I share my internet connection (on eth1) to another computer (on eth0)?
[01:35] <ubuntu_> vista will not run?
[01:35] <ZuluKunt> ubuntu_, what do you have on your hard drive right now?
[01:35] <N> seodoa: have you tried assigning a static ip?
[01:35] <rambo3> !screenlets
[01:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about screenlets - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:35] <daan> seodoa: you can try a static ip
[01:35] <daan> seodoa: with /etc/network/interfaces
[01:35] <ubuntu_> I have data on e and z drive
[01:35] <rich__> your ip should probably be something like 192.168.1.2
[01:35] <N> perhaps theres some problems with dynamic ip hosts or something
[01:35] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntu_: Define your problem on one line
[01:35] <ubuntu_> c and d drive i have kept clean
[01:35] <N> so you don't get a proper ip
[01:36] <ubuntu_> for installing os
[01:36] <ubuntu_> ok
[01:36] <ubuntu_> I hve data on e and f drives
[01:36] <seodoa> N: I can try that, I wonder if his router will like that or not... it's about the most retarded one I've ever seen
[01:36] <N> ubuntu: well, this won't really solve any problems, but throwing the vista cd out the window does alot of good (though the dustbin is better)
[01:36] <ZuluKunt> ubuntu_, ok, install ubuntu on the C drive, but make sure you select the empty drive, cuz in ubuntu there is no C, D whatever
[01:36] <ghaith> hey, i'm trying to install ubuntu on one of my pcs, i downloaded the minimal install cd to try and build up the system myself as i'm a bit experienced with linux in general and i dont' have the time for big downloads, i want to install probably xubuntu-desktop as the pc is a bit old, now my question, is the minimal install cd going to download everything the alternate cd had? i specified server at boot, and i have an ubuntu cd in here, should i install i
[01:36] <ghaith> t and then install the xubuntu-desktop what do you recomand? thx
[01:36] <jdavis> how do I configure the sensitivity of my touchpad? mouse settings only change my USB mouse I've got plugged in?
[01:36] <seodoa> His router looks like he bought it from Toys R Us
[01:36] <rich__> lol
[01:37] <daan> seodoa: lol what brand
[01:37] <N> ghaith: try using the alternate install cd
[01:37] <daan> seodoa: e-tech or something?
[01:37] <seodoa> daan: Buffalo.
[01:37] <ubuntu_> now the pc says boot from cd
[01:37] <daan> seodoa: my best bet is just to try a static ip
[01:37] <N> ghaith: trying to build an install up could result in alot of downloading
[01:37] <ghaith> N, i cant' download it, i'm on the abuse list on my isp my current download speed is 1.5K :D lol
[01:38] <ubuntu_> to boot from cd i hve only vista and ubuntu
[01:38] <N> hmm
[01:38] <ZuluKunt> ubuntu_, so boot from the cd
[01:38] <N> order a cd :D
[01:38] <zero-9377> is there a way to monitor my graphics card temp through proc or an application, Nvidia card
[01:38] <ZuluKunt> ubuntu_, what does that mean?
[01:38] <seodoa> daan: Thanks, I'll give it a try
[01:38] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntu_: Boot the Ubuntu livecd
[01:38] <ghaith> N, i have the ubuntu cd, though it's going to run slow on that pc
[01:38] <ZuluKunt> to boot from cd i hve only vista and ubuntu << what does that mean
[01:38] <N> ghaith: try ordering a cd
[01:38] <Ivis> !linux
[01:38] <ubotu> Linux is the kernel (core) of the Ubuntu operating system. Many operating systems use Linux as kernel. For more information on Linux in general, visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux
[01:38] <daan> seodoa: don't forget to do a /etc/init.d/networking restart
[01:38] <ubuntu_> i cannot see any drives for i c just the black screen saying boot from cd rom
[01:38] <N> ghaith: its free ( I think )
[01:38] <daan> seodoa: when you change something in the interfaces file
[01:39] <ZuluKunt> ubuntu_, so boot from the CD
[01:39] <N> hmm
[01:39] <N> can you access the router interface
[01:39] <ZuluKunt> ubuntu_, press enter
[01:39] <ZuluKunt> omg
[01:39] <bobbob1016> Nautilus keeps crashing when I browse anything but /home, I remember having this issue before, and it was some permissions in my /media directory, but I'm not sure what they should be.  Does anyone know?
[01:39] <Jack_Sparrow> ZuluKunt: agreed
[01:39] <ubuntu_> Zulu
[01:39] <seodoa> daan: don't worry, despite what Jack might think, I know my way around a computer... and I'm not a girl.  Everyone knows there are no girls on the internet
[01:39] <seodoa> lol
[01:39] <ubuntu_> u saying start with instlling ubuntu?
[01:39] <ghaith> N, yeah i knwo it is, i have it lol, but it's kind of heavy, i' a gentoo user and i like costumising the system, anyway i guess if this is going to take long i'll install gnome and reinstall xubuntu-desktop on it
[01:39] <N> note the router's ip and the dhcp stuff
[01:39] <N> then try manual config
[01:39] <magnuse> 	 1	Hjlte
[01:39] <magnuse> 	 58	Sprare
[01:39] <Jack_Sparrow> bobbob1016: to find out.. run gksudo nautilus and see if the problem goes away
[01:39] <magnuse> 	 39	Theutates Blixtar
[01:40] <daan> seodoa: eum are you a girl or not :)
[01:40] <sdfsadf> can I instlal java 1.6 on ubuntu 6?
[01:40] <sdfsadf> install
[01:40] <Jack_Sparrow> daan: doubtful
[01:40] <ZuluKunt> ubuntu_, will due respect, it would take me a lifetime to tell you every keystroke you have to press to install the thang
[01:40] <bobbob1016> Jack_Sparrow, still happens
[01:40] <N> sdfsadf: I think you can
[01:40] <ZuluKunt> with*
[01:40] <N> try the repos
[01:40] <N> or download it from java.com
[01:40] <N> works well enough
[01:41] <bobbob1016> Jack_Sparrow, it started when I put in a thumb drive
[01:41] <daan> seodoa: if you're not and you have a boyfriend then that's fine with me :) i don't discriminate
[01:41] <ghaith> sdfsadf, i think it's in the repositories? open synaptic
[01:41] <ZuluKunt> start the installation, why else did you pop in the CD
[01:41] <seodoa> No, I'm not... Girls don't use IRC/ ;)
[01:41] <ubuntu_> Jack i hve version 5.10 of ubuntu installation cd is that ok
[01:41] <Jack_Sparrow> bobbob1016: then permissions are not the problem.. have you been running things as root alot, used scripts to install things?
[01:41] <bobbob1016> but now every folder does it, except / and /home
[01:41] <Busata> what do girls do then?!
[01:41] <jdavis> cook
[01:41] <daan> Busata: fix their hair
[01:41] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntu_: yes it is fine.. boot to that
[01:41] <N> seodoa: they don't? why ever not?
[01:41] <Busata> oh boy, now I asked something  :)
[01:41] <seodoa> Busata: was their nethers
[01:41] <ZuluKunt> Jack_Sparrow, good luck helping ubuntu_
[01:41] <Jack_Sparrow> agreed
[01:41] <seodoa> wax
[01:42] <seodoa> I hate this keyboard
[01:42] <Jack_Sparrow> he gets another minute or two of my time
[01:42] <daan> seodoa: Logitech?
[01:42] <sdfsadf> I met girl on inet
[01:42] <Busata> also a toys r us keyboard?
[01:42] <sdfsadf> once before
[01:42] <seodoa> No, just a Japanese one
[01:42] <Busata> with big yellow brick buttons
[01:42] <sdfsadf> ARGH
[01:42] <N> hmm
[01:42] <ubuntu_> where do i get guides while installing ubuntu so that i do not inadvertently destroy what i have on other drive
[01:42] <bobbob1016> Jack_Sparrow, not really, I can't remember the last script I used as root, use sudo not root, if that makes a difference
[01:42] <valehru> Hey guys, is there any reason why on an IBM Thinkpad T60 the system is unable to recover from sleep / hibernate mode?  Running Feisty, fully updated.

[01:42] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[01:42] <m1r> ubuntu_, in install process
[01:43] <N> ubuntu_, when you are installing Ubuntu, try manual partitioning (see help.ubuntu.com) or buy the ubuntu book
[01:43] <Jack_Sparrow> bobbob1016: if using sudo to run a gui program is a bad idea.. always use gksudo or kdesu
[01:43] <daan> seodoa: lol
[01:43] <jdavis> why do you have a japanese keyboard? are you japanese or some kind of weeaboo?
[01:43] <rich__> ubuntu__ run gparted and see how much free space you have, partition the free space into a root and a swap partition and then install ubuntu into the newly clarified free space
[01:43] <seodoa> Did somebody say weeaboo?
[01:43] <bobbob1016> Jack_Sparrow, I don't use sudo for gui...
[01:43] <jdavis> I think so
[01:43] <N> whats the difference between sudo and gksu (besides the gui)?
[01:43] <daan> seodoa: I actually like Microsoft keyboard that's the only thing I'll accept from them
[01:43] <seodoa> Too bad /b/ isn't funny outside of /b/
[01:43] <ghaith> just a side note in here, the partitioner should be improved, and i have some ideas.. where should i share them??
[01:43] <jdavis> Rules 1 and 2!
[01:43] <ZuluKunt> Jack_Sparrow, why is it a bad idea?
[01:44] <N> :D ( try the forums)
[01:44] <Jack_Sparrow> bobbob1016: it can screw up things like permissions
[01:44] <seodoa> And I'm not Japanese, I just live there
[01:44] <Kroozr> jdavis, the heck is a weeaboo
[01:44] <netyire> seodoa: and eat the food :D
[01:44] <Jack_Sparrow> always use gksudo for gui apps
[01:44] <jdavis> So...weeaboo? :)
[01:44] <Kroozr> daan, i agree. i have a microsoft ergonomic 4000 keyboard
[01:45] <seodoa> Kroozr: A Japanohile
[01:45] <Jack_Sparrow> I have the bent MS keyboard as well
[01:45] <netyire> what happens if you type: sudo rm -rf /
[01:45] <netyire> ?
[01:45] <seodoa> netyire: Dunno, I&ll try it and find out
[01:45] <seodoa> XD
[01:45] <ZuluKunt> http://video.stumbleupon.com/#p=h87iqn94d2 < wikked
[01:45] <netyire> :D
[01:45] <bobbob1016> Jack_Sparrow, and I fix that how?
[01:45] <daan> Kroozr: i've got a Digital Media Pro
[01:46] <ZuluKunt> netyire, try it out and tell us
[01:46] <seodoa> Kk, gonna see if I can get this garbage on the internet
[01:46] <Jack_Sparrow> bobbob1016: Not sure, you need to figure out what you were doing before the problem
[01:46] <netyire> bob: hmm, does dpkg --configure nautilus help?
[01:46] <jrib> netyire: don't type that here
[01:46] <seodoa> Thanks for the help daan, I'll come back if it works... if not, he, I&m hungry so I'll probably go get food
[01:46] <m1r> how to fix ? - Disk /dev/sda doesn't contain a valid partition table
[01:47] <netyire> jrib: don't want to give anyone ideas :D
[01:47] <bobbob1016> Jack_Sparrow, I plugged in a thumb drive
[01:47] <jrib> no one type what netyire said before as that would be bad...
[01:47] <ZuluKunt> why is everyone spreading rm -rf /
[01:47] <ubuntu_> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[01:47] <ZuluKunt> that's really bad
[01:47] <ubuntu_> i will do this
[01:47] <netyire> m1r: try typing tune2fs -c 1 /dev/sda
[01:47] <netyire> then restart ubuntu
[01:47] <Jack_Sparrow> morning jrib..   bobbo.. that wouldnt do it
[01:47] <ubuntu_> un gparted and see how much free space you have, partition the free space into a root and a swap partition and then install ubuntu into the newly clarified free space
[01:47] <MeRodent> frigin, bugger arrrgghhh.
[01:48] <ubuntu_> this is the message i got from you geeks
[01:48] <ubuntu_> thank you
[01:48] <MeRodent> Is there anyway to force CUPS to use a particular print driver?
[01:48] <m1r> netyire , it is external usb hdd, also need restart ?
[01:48] <netyire> ZuluKunt: hmm, if I suddenly go offline, its because of good ol' rm
[01:48] <netyire> m1r: try running fsck on it if its external
[01:48] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntu_: That is it in a nutshell yes..
[01:48] <zero-9377> anyone know of a way to find GPU temp
[01:48] <netyire> m1r: but dd it first least something go wrong
[01:49] <zero-9377> nvdia card
[01:49] <ubuntu_> Thanks Jack, my concern is not to loose data on the hard drive
[01:49] <m1r> dd ?
[01:49] <netyire> can you talk about sushi here?
[01:49] <bobbob1016> Jack_Sparrow, that is all I did before it stopped working that I can think of, I had Azuerus and Amule running, but not as root, or sudo or anything like you suggested
[01:49] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntu_: We can talk more on this..
[01:49] <netyire> m1r: dd (something like imaging a drive)
[01:49] <jrib> netyire: no, only ubuntu support.  You can talk about sushi in #ubuntu-offtopic though
[01:49] <psych> 64mb ram is a enough for the livecd?
[01:50] <ubuntu_> jack when and how do we talk
[01:50] <bobbob1016> Jack_Sparrow, there isn't a permissions checker, is there?  as in one that checks my root ubuntu folders to make sure they have the right permissions?
[01:50] <netyire> jrib: thanks!
[01:50] <psych> can anyone answer my question ?
[01:50] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntu_: I would like to see you run gparted livecd... delete the first partition "C" which you say has nothing installed... then run Ubuntu live and tell it to use unpartitioned space
[01:50] <m1r> netyire : not needed to backup as only failed install on it
[01:50] <rich__> psych 64 wont be enough
[01:51] <psych> rich__, ty
[01:51] <ubuntu_> with live cd i can do gparted?
[01:51] <ubuntu_> i do not hve to put in the installation cd now?
[01:51] <Dominat0r> hi guys, i tried this what Edlin said; <EdLin> Dominat0r: try getting ntfs-3g, it's in universal
[01:52] <Dominat0r> but what is my next move ?
[01:52] <ilikec0ws> !ntfs
[01:52] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[01:52] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntu_: with the live cd you can run gparted.. but I prefer the gparted livecd...
[01:52] <ilikec0ws> !ntfs-3g | Dominat0r
[01:52] <ubotu> Dominat0r: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[01:52] <Dominat0r> sweet thanks m8
[01:52] <ubuntu_> gparted livecd and livecd that i have, are they different, jack?
[01:53] <netyire> ubuntu_: think of them as different assortments of software

[02:13] <peterb1> cast: How do I dump to wav mplayer?
[02:13] <illriginal> would deleting private data also get rid of the passwords that I have saved, cast?
[02:13] <rich__> illriginal you can do that from within firefox

[02:14] <aantn> msetim: how am I going to install it on your computer?
[02:14] <ny00123> but you can install something named nspluginwrapper for the 64-bit browser
[02:14] <BadRobot> Was it any good?I am not trying to replace Ubuntu for it,but just use some left over space from HDD
[02:14] <msetim> ny00123: Is the only way?
[02:14] <Michael147> Hey! Ive got quite a tricky problem reguarding a driver for what i belive to be an Intel NIC. Now ive installed the driver for what i think is the correct NIC make/model on a windowss sytem and im getting a connection status of litmited or no connectivity. Now could have i got the model of the NIC wrong, or is the driver at fault?I need some advice here guys ive been at this sytem for 3 days.
[02:15] <ilikec0ws> BadRobot, If you like it cause of the way it looks, why not try enlightenment :P
[02:15] <BadRobot> I like it.aantn
[02:15] <aantn> BadRobot: I'm asking b/c I've never used ubuntu studio
[02:15] <ny00123> msetim and aantn: However, it seems like I may click only once on a control in a Flash applet. Then to click again I have to move the mouse out of it and in again.
[02:15] <jxi> Michael147: what kind of nic
[02:15] <ny00123> (clicking again while not going out of the applet does nothing)
[02:15] <Michael147> jxi, the NIC is built into an Asus mobo.
[02:15] <aantn> BadRobot: I'm not sure they have ubuntu studio for ppc

[02:17] <cast> illriginal: its listed there, if it didn't it would be a bug
[02:17] <rich__> illriginal in firefox, hit tools, clear private data, and a dialogue should open giving you the options you want
[02:17] <BadRobot> i don't think ,i think they only have for i386
[02:17] <aantn> BadRobot: obviously
[02:17] <illriginal> thanks rich__

[02:18] <aantn> BadRobot: have you ever used regular ubuntu?
[02:18] <NET||abuse> Hi all, i really can't find the answer to why my flash has stopped using sound..
[02:18] <aantn> BadRobot: or os x?
[02:18] <rich__> what sort of sound card are you using NET?
[02:18] <BadRobot> have a look on my page
[02:18] <rich__> not external usb?
[02:19] <BadRobot> aantn
[02:19] <NET||abuse> i've tried setting aoss in firefoxrc, and i've tried pointing the .so.0 file to .so.1
[02:19] <aantn> kk
[02:19] <jxi> Michael147: it is tricky as long as you do not know which chipset you have
[02:19] <aantn> Have you tried compiz fusion
[02:19] <aantn> ?
[02:19] <Michael147> jxi, how would i find out?
[02:19] <aantn> or buntu se?
[02:19] <rich__> have you tried reinstalling flash?
[02:19] <aantn> *ubuntu
[02:19] <NET||abuse> rich__, indeed I also reinstalled flash-nonfree
[02:19] <msetim> aantn: Sorry,,, I want not say, "you install it on my pc". I want to say: "someone have the flash installed on pc??"
[02:19] <jxi> Michael147: i guess you do not have any documentation. have you tried searching lspci strings?
[02:20] <msetim> ny00123: I
[02:20] <ny00123> yes?
[02:20] <NET||abuse> so i don't know where to go now..
[02:20] <Michael147> jxi, i have no documentation whatsoever. The PC was bought 2nd hand.
[02:20] <rich__> uhm
[02:20] <aantn> msetim: on ppc?
[02:20] <msetim> ny00123: so, I will try to install the firefox with chroot, i will to to the google search a tutorial ;) Thks
[02:20] <aantn> msetim: you have to be joking
[02:20] <jxi> Michael147: what does lspci give you?
[02:20] <ny00123> It's like a "second" operating system
[02:20] <rich__> what happened when it stopped working? any clues there?
[02:21] <Michael147> Well i installed an Intel driver for the card and i got a limited or no connectivity staus.
[02:21] <ny00123> you know msetim, I think that, say, Wine in chroot may work better than with ia32 and the like
[02:21] <ny00123> (for instance)
[02:21] <Michael147> lspci??
[02:21] <aantn> BadRobot: Have you tried compiz fusion or ubuntu se?
[02:21] <NET||abuse> rich__, i'm not sure,, maybe i need to try changing a sound options somewhere in ubuntu.. my sound works normally, but just not for flash
[02:21] <jxi> !lspci
[02:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lspci - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:21] <NET||abuse> rich__, which option in preferences->sound affects flash sound playback?
[02:21] <rambo3> !avahi
[02:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about avahi - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:22] <jxi> Michael147: of course, it is not on your pci bus.. hmm..
[02:22] <BadRobot> no,that is the reason i am trying elive and Dreamlinux
[02:22] <NET||abuse> rich__, there's Sound Events, Music and movies and Audio Conferencing...
[02:22] <Michael147> Ive tried checking the board itself, but nothing.
[02:22] <NET||abuse> I would presume Music and Movies
[02:22] <BadRobot> http://flycharlles.deviantart.com/
[02:23] <aantn> BadRobot: you already told me that
[02:23] <jxi> Michael147: if it's a laptop you can always check out linux on laptops, but im sorry i can't help you more. it seems to be like a tricky combination of not knowing the chipset and proprietary card..

[02:31] <Paddy_EIRE> ny00123, i had done something similar myself, although found to have far less hassle using the 32bit distro.  64bit seems to cause more trouble than its worth so far..well for me anyway :P
[02:31] <rich__> if you really want osx you might get away with it ;)
[02:31] <ny00123> I don't have a Mac at the moment (no ppc nor intel) but at least another non-win
[02:31] <ny00123> oh, ok Paddy_EIRE. Note that if you want to develop something which may work on multiple platforms, 64-bit may be good. Because... sizeof(int) < sizeof(long) there.
[02:32] <ny00123> that's just one example
[02:32] <bobbob1016> can anyone point me to a place where I can figure out how to fix permissions?  I found this http://textsnippets.com/posts/show/247 haven't run it yet, not sure if it is good or bad to do
[02:32] <adrian> wie bekomme ich msn ff ubuntu

[02:33] <SirTane> i think i'm on one partition, but with 15 GB of freespace
[02:33] <n2diy> bobbob1016: take a look here: http://rute.2038bug.com/rute.html.gz
[02:33] <T-Connect> o.O
[02:33] <bobbob1016> rich__, not sure exactly, nautilus crashes on basically anything but my homedir

[02:33] <T-Connect> Topless babes
[02:33] <ny00123> bobbob1016,  let's say only root can access a file ~/myfile and you want everybody FULL privileges (read/write/execute). then...
[02:33] <ironfroggy> is it possible to accidentally be using RAID?
[02:33] <ny00123> sudo chmod 777 ~/myfile
[02:34] <ny00123> no execute: 644

[02:34] <Bartzy> I have a windows XP installation. I want to install ubuntu in another partition. I have a SATA 250GB disk devided to 20GB (XP boot partition), 200GB for data (ntfs) and left about 10GB for ubuntu... I also have 80GB and 30GB NTFS IDE HD's. Anyways, in the 10GB of freespace in the 250GB hd, I added an ext3 partition for the root, and a swap partition. when I'm being asked to specify the device to install the boot loader to, what to enter ? :|
[02:34] <k31th> How do i change the kernel ubuntu boots from? I dont seem to have menu.lst in /boot
[02:34] <ny00123> it's bitwise bobbob1016. 1 = execute, 2 = write, 4 = read.
[02:34] <MeRodent> k31th: try /boot/grub/
[02:34] <defrysk> k31th, /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:35] <SlimeyPete> Bartzy: install it to your SATA disk
[02:35] <rich__> gparted should tell you the name of the drive with the partitioned space on it
[02:35] <ilikec0ws> Bartzy, Instead of doing it yourself, why not jut clear some free space on your partiton in windows then get the installer to use free space
[02:35] <Bartzy> SlimeyPete: yeah, but what to write for SATA? (sd0,2) ?
[02:35] <bobbob1016> ny00123, I know the basics in that respect, I'm not sure what the permissions should be for my folders, I was here a while ago, and all I found out was that it was permissions somewhere.  Basically nautilus freezes if I open anything but my homedir, even as root
[02:35] <vik> I want to use mondo to back up to a usb hard disk; anyone have any experience/pointers on this?
[02:35] <zenobia> SirTane: I didn't try to install that way, but if, for some very strange reason, it would erase your windows partition, there would surely be a warning. Doesn't hurt to try. I did countless installs ment for dual-booting and never had any data-loss.
[02:35] <msetim> ny00123: The plugin wrapper has been installed :-D... I used script from ubuntu forum, appear to work well, now I'm working, when I go to home I will test it... :-D
[02:36] <Bartzy> ilikec0ws: When I tried that, I just got "Operating system could not load" in the boot sequence.. or something like that :)
[02:36] <ny00123> ok msetim :D
[02:36] <SirTane> zenobia okay, thanks
[02:36] <SirTane> here i go...
[02:36] <arta> hello
[02:36] <bobbob1016> ny00123, if I browse my second HD, nautilus freezes, then shows the contents after a while, then freezes again, and shows contents, and so on
[02:36] <zenobia> SirTane: Don't worry, we're from the internets ;)
[02:36] <SirTane> LOL
[02:36] <arta> #videolan sent me here to get fglrx working :)
[02:36] <ny00123> bobbob1016, in /etc/fstab right?
[02:37] <SirTane> which version of ubuntu do you suguest?
[02:37] <rich__> have u tried fdisk -l from the live cd terminal?
[02:37] <ilikec0ws> Bartzy, Well the way i did it, not on ubuntu though, was create a third boot partition of around 150MB and install grub to that
[02:37] <SirTane> 7.04 i assume?
[02:37] <arta> Me? Yes
[02:37] <ny00123> bobbob1016, here's an entry auto-generated by Feisty for a Windows partition (partially..censored ;-P):
[02:37] <zenobia> SirTane: How old is the machine? 7.04 if it's recent.
[02:37] <ny00123> UUID=SOMEHEXNUMBER /media/sda1     ntfs    defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0
[02:37] <SirTane> it was state of the edge back in like... 2003
[02:37] <ny00123> umask and gid could have an effect.
[02:37] <bobbob1016> ny00123, yeah, it was auto detected, and mounted after I added it
[02:37] <SirTane> 2.3 ghz HT intel
[02:38] <zenobia> SirTane: 7.04 shouldn't be a problem then.
[02:38] <SirTane> 1 gb ram
[02:38] <ilikec0ws> SirTane, It will run on that!
[02:38] <SirTane> zenobia: kthx
[02:38] <tanlaan> I'm confused. If I wanted to create a custom UI for a linux distro *lets say ubuntu*. Would I need to create my own custom Window Manager? The reason I want to, is because it would be cool to have your own personalized distro, having everything where you want it, in a non-standardized way. Something along the lines of the olpc UI would be really cool. http://tinyurl.com/3yv3nd
[02:38] <SirTane> ilikec0ws: you too
[02:38] <Bartzy> my only problem is that I don't know what's the GRUB syntax. for SATA its sd(something,something) ? and if it says my root partition is at sda partition #3, should I write sd(0,2) or sd(0,3) ?
[02:38] <zenobia> SirTane: And if some parts would be slow, it's linux, so just rip out what you don't need.
[02:38] <SirTane> i'll probably be back in about an hour
[02:38] <SirTane> crying for help getting firefox to work
[02:38] <SirTane> or something...
[02:38] <rich__> nw
[02:38] <cast> Bartzy: third partition is 2, since it starts counting at zero
[02:38] <ny00123> bobbob1016 is it NTFS or FAT32 or some Linux partition?
[02:38] <ilikec0ws> SirTane, Why would you be doing that?
[02:38] <zenobia> SirTane: I'll be waiting ;)
[02:38] <bobbob1016> ny00123, and I managed to get my 3rd HD, which is NTFS to work fine, but my FAT32 one, the second one, freezes, I checked that the permissions were the same as the FAT32, and they are as far as I can tell
[02:38] <SirTane> ilikec0ws: because crap never works for me.  ever.
[02:39] <Bartzy> okay, and how do I mention to GRUB that it's a SATA disk (sda)
[02:39] <Bartzy> ?
[02:39] <netyire> ny00123: NTFS and FAT32 are the kinda partitions on Windows
[02:39] <pord> any1 know where I can find a good list of software sources for feisty?
[02:39] <ny00123> bobbob1016, and if you try nautilus as root?
[02:39] <ilikec0ws> SirTane, Ahhh watch it work fine now you say that :P
[02:39] <netyire> Ext3 is the kind you get on Ubuntu
[02:39] <SirTane> it's not a problem that i'm on an NTFS HD, is it?
[02:39] <ny00123> netyire, I've also mentioned 'linux' ;] 
[02:39] <zenobia> pord: Except the package manager?
[02:39] <netyire> whoops
[02:39] <cast> Bartzy: (hd0,2) should work i feel
[02:39] <bobbob1016> ny00123, yeah, and it didn't do much better, trying it again, one second
[02:39] <netyire> (sorry, just came from the offtopic channel)
[02:39] <ny00123> netyire, oh I got you
[02:39] <zenobia> SirTane: As long as you partition in ext, no.
[02:39] <ny00123> that's ok ;] 
[02:39] <SirTane> ilikec0ws: it doesn't work and i'll blame you for jinxing
[02:39] <SirTane> zenobia: ext?
[02:39] <ilikec0ws> SirTane, Nope, the installer can overwirte it if thats what you want
[02:39] <Bartzy> but hd0 is for mentioning IDE drives, no ? :|
[02:39] <Pirate_Hunter> hi people does ubuntu have peer connection limit like XP, if it does how can I increase it or bypass it
[02:39] <zenobia> SirTane: And I got my NTFS partition working great, so no need to copy over all your data
[02:40] <rich__> anyone have much experience using bchunk???
[02:40] <cast> Bartzy: it is. but i have all sata in this machine and my grub says hd, so i figure...
[02:40] <zenobia> SirTane: The filesystem Ubuntu uses, you'll see.
[02:40] <ny00123> I know ext3 and LVM stuff... (and older ext2, newer(?) reiserfs)
[02:40] <netyire> bchunk?
[02:40] <netyire> hmm
[02:40] <netyire> to image a drive?
[02:40] <Paddy_EIRE> tanlaan, did you see this http://www.bumptop.com/
[02:40] <netyire> try dd instead
[02:40] <netyire> or dd_rescue
[02:40] <SirTane> zenobia: i'm on one partition, should i make another one?
[02:40] <cast> Bartzy: sd may be for SCSI disks
[02:40] <netyire> can recover lots of files
[02:40] <rich__> yeah its a tool to convert .bin .cue into an iso
[02:40] <Bartzy> cast, I have IDE drives as well... and if one of them gets currupted i'm screwed :|
[02:40] <netyire> SirTane: actually, 1 partition is good enough
[02:40] <SirTane> i have partition magic on this computer
[02:40] <rich__> everytime i use it, i can play the resulting iso in vlc but i cannot mount it to extract the avi
[02:40] <SirTane> netyire: and it won't delete my windows crap?
[02:40] <bobbob1016> ny00123, I'm opening the /media directory, and it doesn't freeze, it just takes a while to open, could that be a problem?
[02:40] <cast> Bartzy: ahh. do you have a floppy disk?
[02:40] <ny00123> bobbob1016, if it doesn't work well even as root, then the source of the problem could be different.
[02:41] <Bartzy> nope... floppy disk of what ?
[02:41] <ny00123> does the partition have LOTS of folders and/or files?
[02:41] <rich__> bob i would got drastic and try reinstalling nautilus
[02:41] <rich__> or maybe tryout fluxbox
[02:41] <bobbob1016> ny00123, not working as root.  It does show the files after about 30 seconds, but then it freezes again, shows them, and freezes, and so on
[02:41] <cast> Bartzy: you can install grub on a floppy, grub is interactive. you don't need a config file at all, you can just type commands in
[02:41] <zenobia> SirTane: Yes, on a normal cd-install there is a partition-manager included, not sure about the way you're going to try. I use the following partitions : a root in ext3, a swapfile of 512mb and a /home also in ext3, so I can mess up the OS but don't lose my data.
[02:41] <netyire> or enlightenment
[02:42] <zenobia> SirTane: The least you need, though, is a root partition and a swapfile
[02:42] <netyire> hmm
[02:42] <cast> Bartzy: but at any rate if you get the wrong drive in the root line of grub config it wont corrupt anything
[02:42] <SirTane> zenobia: so should i partition or no?
[02:42] <netyire> yup
[02:42] <netyire> boot and swap
[02:42] <netyire> *root and swap
[02:42] <Bartzy> cast, I don't understand... I just want my computer to have a boot list in the boot sequence, and I will choose if I want XP or Ubuntu to load... I understood that if I install GRUB on the root partition, it will work.
[02:42] <tanlaan> Paddy_EIRE: No I haven't, I'll check it out =] 
[02:42] <cast> Bartzy: you can fix it from within grub, too, by hitting e
[02:42] <rich__> with 1gb of ram you can get away with a very small swapfile, although they say the swap should be 2 times the ram, the bigger the ram the less you need a swapfile
[02:42] <netyire> hmm
[02:42] <k31th> I dont get this I have no sudo /boot/grub/menu.lst ???????????
[02:42] <Pirate_Hunter> hi people does ubuntu have peer connection limit like XP, if it does how can I increase it or bypass it
[02:42] <zenobia> SirTane: Try the installer first, maybe it suggests a partition-layout for you, otherwise just do it yourself using partitionmagic.
[02:42] <netyire> Bartzy: if you want to install grub on the root, you may need to boot from a floppy
[02:43] <cast> Bartzy: correct.
[02:43] <netyire> to bypass the Windows Boot Manager
[02:43] <ilikec0ws> k31th, You need to specify an editor if you want to view it
[02:43] <Bartzy> how can I boot it from a floppy ? what files should I put on that floppy ?
[02:43] <netyire> when you install grub
[02:43] <netyire> (alternate install cd)
[02:43] <cast> Bartzy: well, you have to install grub in the MBR of the drive that the bios boots
[02:43] <MeRodent> sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:43] <netyire> place grub on a floppy
[02:43] <netyire> :D
[02:43] <netyire> works well enough
[02:43] <Bartzy> cast : how do I know what's the MBR ?
[02:43] <cast> Bartzy: i suggested a floppy since you were scared of fucking up a drive
[02:43] <k31th> illovae: dude the file is not even there.
[02:43] <netyire> watch the language! :D
[02:44] <Pirate_Hunter> hi people does ubuntu have peer connection limit like XP, if it does how can I increase it or bypass it?
[02:44] <k31th> LOL
[02:44] <ewook> Pirate_Hunter: well, no.
[02:44] <bobbob1016> ny00123, I was able to look at the folder without problems, after it froze for 30 seconds or so, but I couldn't open them or anything,
[02:44] <Bartzy> cast, I don't understand why a floppy is even a solution... I'm very new to linux, and I don't even know what files should I copy to the floppy, and where from :)
[02:44] <cast> Pirate_Hunter: ubuntu is not crippleware like XP ;)
[02:44] <SirTane> zenobia: what file system type should i make the partition?
[02:44] <zenobia> Pirate_Hunter: If there is one, I didn't notice it yet
[02:44] <arta> I have xorg-driver-fglrx installed but it doesn't appear to be loading properly -- any ideas?
[02:44] <rich__> ext3
[02:44] <ilikec0ws> k31th, You tried having a root through /boot/grub to see what is actually there then?
[02:44] <zenobia> SirTane: ext3 is what I chose, and what the cd-installer chooses by default
[02:44] <netyire> Pirate_Hunter: problems belong to Microsoft, don't steal from them!
[02:44] <k31th> there is no grub dir.
[02:45] <SirTane> zenobia, rich__: ty
[02:45] <cast> Bartzy: well imho the most important thing is to boot into ubuntu. if you're scared to install a bootloader to a drive you can just boot off a floppy.
[02:45] <ny00123> bobbob1016, as root? Then it's quite of a question mark for me (oops ;] ) If nautilus outputs some debugging to the terminal, that could help.
[02:45] <k31th> ilikec0ws: in /boot the kernels are there
[02:45] <tonsofpcs> anyone know what path plugins for konqueror go in?
[02:45] <k31th> but no grub dir.
[02:45] <netyire> Bartzy: Yes its scary, the things Windows does to people. Horrible
[02:45] <ironfroggy> What would device dm-2 be?
[02:45] <cast> Bartzy: personally i'd just install the bootloader to a hard drive, but you have choices!
[02:45] <Pirate_Hunter> ewook, cast & zenobia: so what youre saying if I was to use torrent I could achieve theoretically up to 100 peer connection like in XP without using no patch or editing anything in ubuntu. Is that righ?
[02:45] <ironfroggy> im seeing that where i normally expect hda or such
[02:45] <cast> Pirate_Hunter: 100 connections is not much
[02:46] <bobbob1016> ny00123, one second, checking again, I did it with alt+f2 before, and gksudo, one second
[02:46] <netyire> Pirate_Hunter: It may depend on the torrent client you use
[02:46] <netyire> even still, the speed is limited
[02:46] <Bartzy> cast, I want to install the bootloader to a hard drive, ofcourse... booting from a floppy every time I restart my computer is ridiculous :) The question is how do I do that
[02:46] <netyire> it takes more time to make connections
[02:46] <SirTane> okay guys... restarting now
[02:46] <ewook> Pirate_Hunter: err, 100 is like 1 or 2 torrentfiles :)
[02:46] <NET||abuse> rich__, sorry had to run off for a bit there.. that symlink to the libesd.so.0 is already in place, i did this already.
[02:46] <SirTane> zenobia, i saved your whois, if this doesn't work i WILL find you >:O
[02:46] <netyire> Bartzy: think of its as pushing the floppy in when you want to use ubuntu. else its windows
[02:46] <zenobia> Pirate_Hunter: Ofcourse, 100 isn't that much. The ratio is still important ofcourse
[02:47] <Pirate_Hunter> cast, ewook & netyire: I kniow but the file i want is hard to get and the more ppl i cna connect to the better
[02:47] <Lorne_Kun> ok guys, im having some very very curious problems with my two internal hard drives :/
[02:47] <Bartzy> netyire, Are there any risks of installing grub to the hard drive itself ? (root partition)
[02:47] <ewook> Pirate_Hunter: well, there's prolly more problem with how many connections your router can handle I'd guess :)
[02:47] <LuiCal> help please i want to remove ubuntu ce
[02:47] <bobbob1016> ny00123, the only thing I can see that is an issue is it is saying "failed to close thumbnail pixbuf" for a .png file, "Unrecognized file format
[02:47] <ewook> Pirate_Hunter: and the settings in your client
[02:48] <zenobia> Lorne_Kun: Feel free to go on =)
[02:48] <ilikec0ws> Bartzy, I dont think so? Ive installed it numerous times to dual booted pcs and never had a problem
[02:48] <netyire> hit 500 on a cisco router and say goodbye to them torrents
[02:48] <Lorne_Kun> i have used sudo cfdisk to erase the partition table on my drives
[02:48] <bobbob1016> ny00123, but that file has always been there, and I have a PNG on my desktop that isn't having problems
[02:48] <cast> Bartzy: i do not know how to install grub in windows.
[02:48] <Lorne_Kun> (from single user terminal, no less)
[02:48] <Bartzy> cast, I don't want to install it on windows
[02:48] <netyire> Bartzy: I don't think so (but who knows when you're working with Windows) :D
[02:48] <cast> Bartzy: notice i said in windows
[02:48] <ny00123> bobbob1016 so it occurs only with a specific file?
[02:49] <netyire> LuiCal: Remove Ubuntu CE?
[02:49] <netyire> gosh why?
[02:49] <aantn> !botsnack
[02:49] <ubotu> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[02:49] <bobbob1016> ny00123, that is what the terminal gives me
[02:49] <ilikec0ws> Bartzy, have you tried reading the dual boot documentation on the wiki?
[02:49] <ny00123> oh...
[02:49] <LuiCal> please help me, i installed ubuntu's ce  script, and it messed up my pc
[02:49] <Bartzy> cast, I'm now on ubuntu live cd. I'm in the part in the install where I should enter the partition to install grub into. I just don't know if to enter hd(0,2) or sd(0,2), because I have IDE drives as well as the SATA drive I want to install linux into
[02:49] <bobbob1016> ny00123, "** Message: Failed to close thumbnail pixbuf loader for /media/HD2/Screenshot-1.png: Unrecognized image file format"
[02:49] <netyire> its basically 1: install windows then 2: install ubuntu
[02:49] <netyire> then automatic grub menu
[02:49] <bobbob1016> ny00123, it shows that twice
[02:49] <netyire> if its 1: ubuntu then 2: windows
[02:49] <ewook> !ce script
[02:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ce script - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:50] <netyire> then run the super grub disc
[02:50] <netyire> and all is well
[02:50] <LuiCal> i need to remove that script, and all that it brought me
[02:50] <Pirate_Hunter> ewook: router has been set to protforward and will allow many connection at speeds up to 600kbps but than thats the highest ive seen it go, client is a kool I know my settings. Well as long as it doesnt have peer capping to 10 connections max i can get my file
[02:50] <ny00123> bobbob1016 maybe the file has a non-standard PNG header/format?
[02:50] <cast> Bartzy: ahh!
[02:50] <ny00123> try copying it using cp to a SAFE place
[02:50] <Lorne_Kun> and i created a new partition on each drive, but when i go to mount the drives, one of them FINALLY after much screwing around, reports the correct amount of free space, but still requires an administrator password to mount them, and the other hard drive incorrectly reports the amount of free space no matter what I do.
[02:50] <ny00123> like /home/username/temp
[02:50] <ny00123> so nautilus doesn't freeze on /home/username at least.
[02:50] <Amplidude> Hi Guys. can anyone please help me with my network setup?
[02:50] <rich__> does anyone have any experiance using bchunk?
[02:50] <cast> Bartzy: didn't realise you had got that far. well.
[02:50] <netyire> Pirate_Hunter: 600kbps?
[02:50] <ubuntu_> Million thanks to JACK for his tenacious patience
[02:50] <netyire> thats about...
[02:51] <rich__> ubuntu_ you get sorted?
[02:51] <netyire> only 75KB
[02:51] <ubuntu_> for Jacks guidance, expertise and time
[02:51] <Bartzy> cast, yep... :]  I already added the root and swap partitions (from within the ubuntu GUI install, I hope it will recognize the root partition as the boot partition)
[02:51] <Pirate_Hunter> netyire: the highest ive seen my router/client achieving on torrent
[02:51] <ubuntu_> rich, no, i did not get sorted
[02:51] <rich__> why not?
[02:51] <netyire> Pirate_Hunter: whats your ISP
[02:51] <ubuntu_> but i do appreciate ur help
[02:51] <bobbob1016> ny00123, I guess that could be it, but it worked fine before, what is the command to archive it in a .gz file from the commandline?  so I don't have to delete it
[02:51] <ilikec0ws> Pirate_Hunter, 600kbps over a BT line jesus :P
[02:51] <netyire> is it catcom? them catcom...
[02:51] <LuiCal> i installed ubuntu's ce script and i want to remove and get back my original ubuntu setting, how can i do that
[02:51] <LuiCal> ?
[02:52] <cast> Bartzy: i think it'll be hd, but i keep backups. your data your call ;)
[02:52] <ilikec0ws> Pirate_Hunter, Who needs that with Virgins 20MB? :P
[02:52] <netyire> 1 KB = 8 kb
[02:52] <ny00123> bobbob1016 gzip -9 yourfile.png
[02:52] <rich__> ubuntu_ you still worried about data loss?
[02:52] <ny00123> assuming you've got write permissions (oh wait it's fat32, yes you've got)
[02:52] <yhan> hi am I the only one to have a lot of trouble with feisty and resume suspend thing ?
[02:52] <netyire> I hit about more than 500 KB/S on private trackers
[02:52] <netyire> :D
[02:52] <ubuntu_> hda 1 couldn't be found on GParted of my live CD 5.10 "Breezy Badger"
[02:52] <Pirate_Hunter> Bartzy: to know which HD is which you should look at the actuall HD size it should help you find the correct HD or use the disk label
[02:52] <ny00123> bobbob1016,  gzip -9 compress better, gzip -1 compresses faster
[02:52] <rich__> yhan no you're not
[02:52] <bobbob1016> ny00123, gzip: Screenshot-1.png.gz: Operation not permitted, could the permissions on that file be bad?
[02:52] <Bartzy> cast, so no absolute answer ? I can't backup 250 Gigs now :)
[02:52] <xarquid> any ubuntu list admins/moderators in here for lists.ubuntu.com? ><
[02:52] <ilikec0ws> Tut shouldnt be torrenting!
[02:53] <yhan> do you guys have some solutions ?
[02:53] <netyire> hmm
[02:53] <Frogzoo> ubuntu_: you using gparted on an ntfs partition ?
[02:53] <ny00123> bobbob1016, maybe it's not even readable? :o
[02:53] <netyire> SHOUTS: anyone here uses the Ubuntu forums?
[02:53] <rich__> what is the specific problem?
[02:53] <jturek> hi, anybody here know how to fix sound that works in Gnome but not in KDE
[02:53] <Pirate_Hunter> ilikec0ws: 20mb nice but im happy with my 8mb of speed especially since I dont use torrent often
[02:53] <Bartzy> cast, there's no place in linux where I can see if linux handles my SATA drive as sd or hd ?
[02:53] <ny00123> bobbob1016, try just copying it and then reading from some other place
[02:53] <rich__> netyire yeah i think most people probably do
[02:53] <bobbob1016> ny00123, it did it, I did ls, and it shows it only as the gz now
[02:53] <LuiCal> please help
[02:53] <rich__> Bartzy fdisk -l
[02:53] <yhan> rich__, is it a problem related to ati or general ?
[02:53] <cast> Bartzy: i install grub via grub-install /dev/hda, the sd/hd convention has nothing to do with linux and just grub
[02:53] <netyire> Pirate_Hunter: move on to Canada (no there aren't weird) and get usenet!
[02:53] <ny00123> bobbob1016, oh...ok
[02:53] <ubuntu_> Rich did you get the answer to your question: "hda 1 couldn't be found on GParted of my live CD 5.10 "Breezy Badger"
[02:54] <netyire> :D
[02:54] <rich__> there are lots of different problems, what is yours?
[02:54] <ilikec0ws> Pirate_Hunter, Im just shocked you can get that from BT unless you live next door to your exchange
[02:54] <ny00123> bobbob1016, try using nautilus now (and not as root, at least)
[02:54] <netyire> hmm
[02:54] <Bartzy> but my root partition is not on hda, its on sda, partition #3...
[02:54] <ubuntu_> saying thnks again
[02:54] <bobbob1016> ny00123, still getting a freeze though, even with it as a .gz
[02:54] <rich__> ubuntu_ what happens when you run gparted?
[02:54] <ny00123> bobbob1016, what does the terminal output (when running from a terminal)
[02:54] <Lorne_Kun> Bartzy, i dont know if its just for me, but fiesty recognizes all of my partitions as being sc(insert letter here)
[02:54] <Lorne_Kun> er drives even.
[02:54] <Pirate_Hunter> ilikec0ws: than I guess im fortunate and yeha the exchange isnt far dont know where it is but it aint
[02:54] <ubuntu_> unallocated 76348 MB is the info i get, Rich
[02:54] <Amplidude> LuiCal: have you tried synaptic?
[02:55] <ilikec0ws> Pirate_Hunter, Lucky for some hey :)
[02:55] <rich__> that is perfect ubuntu_
[02:55] <visof> any one use ettercap ??
[02:55] <netyire> Anyone tried Halo with wine?
[02:55] <netyire> heard its gold
[02:55] <cast> Bartzy: well grub-install/dev/$DRIVETHATBIOSBOOTSTRAPS
[02:55] <bobbob1016> ny00123, checking now, one second
[02:55] <netyire> (on the forums)
[02:55] <rich__> you only need about 4 gb's root aNd a gig of swap to get ubuntu running nicely
[02:55] <ubuntu_> Rich, but hda 1, hda 2 are not seen
[02:55] <Pirate_Hunter> netyire: Ca^ne^Da the lnd of maple syrunp yummy, however, they are hated but the rest of the USA which may not be a wise decision for me
[02:55] <cast> Bartzy: hmm but didn't you already install grub to boot the livecd?
[02:55] <cast> Bartzy: how did you get the livecd to boot?
[02:55] <rich__> but if it shows free space, you can partition that space and use it
[02:56] <LuiCal> after i istalled ubuntu ce it messed up my synaptic
[02:56] <netyire> Pirate_Hunter: sniffles and sobs :D
[02:56] <Bartzy> just entered it to the CD-drive and chose that the CDROM will boot before the SATA drive does
[02:56] <ilikec0ws> cast, You dont boot grub to boot the live cd, its done through your BIOS
[02:56] <rich__> maybe you have a sata drive recognised as sda1 2 etc
[02:56] <netyire> Pirate_Hunter: P2P is legal in Canada
[02:56] <LuiCal> it gives me an error and shuts down
[02:56] <cast> ilikec0ws: he has no cdrom
[02:56] <netyire> even copyright infringement
[02:56] <ilikec0ws> netyire, I dont think its legal, just the courts dont care about it?
[02:56] <netyire> surely the Maple Syrup is more attractive that way!
[02:56] <Pirate_Hunter> ilikec0ws: not really, it happens once in a while, what is annoying is going back to 100-200kbps it just doesn't seem right afterwards
[02:57] <Amplidude> Aah. Out of my reach. Sorry
[02:57] <netyire> ilikec0ws: Its legal (for personal use), like France (I think)
[02:57] <ubuntu_> hard disk says unallocated 76348, Used MB --(blank), Unused MB ---, Flags
[02:57] <bobbob1016> ny00123, now it isn't saying anything in the terminal, it says this "Initializing gnome-mount extension" but that is right after I type sudo nautilus, well before browsing that drive
[02:57] <netyire> Pirate_Hunter: KB or kb?
[02:57] <cast> ilikec0ws: the livecd is sitting on his hard disk as i understand it, or some variation of it
[02:57] <Eltimbalino> Hi, I have corrupted my xorg.conf file. I think it was created automatically when I installed. Can I create it again?
[02:57] <LuiCal> isnt there a way to remove all the ubuntu ce script and the softawres that brought?
[02:57] <visof> how can i cut the net by using ettercap?
[02:57] <netyire> sure!
[02:57] <netyire> Eltimbalino:
[02:57] <Bartzy> cast, I just don't understand what needs to be my input in the advanced window in the ubuntu gui install
[02:57] <rich__> allocate however much you want of that say maybe 5gb to ext root
[02:57] <Pirate_Hunter> netyire: another reason why that would be a bad decision for me I wnat to watch wings of honnemiese which is a classic ive watched a long time
[02:57] <Frogzoo> Eltimbalino: run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[02:57] <netyire> type X -configure
[02:57] <netyire> sudo X -configure
[02:57] <rich__> 1gb to swap
[02:57] <netyire> but dpkg may work too
[02:57] <netyire> :D
[02:58] <Pirate_Hunter> netyire: kB
[02:58] <Bartzy> cast, is it sd(0,2) or hd(0,2).... because its a sata disk and I dont know if its hd or sd...
[02:58] <ny00123> bobbob1016, unfortunately I don't know what more could be the cause at the moment (hmm...big temporary files, other non-standard image files etc)
[02:58] <rich__> is jack still alive??
[02:58] <netyire> ah well... lets see if Halo works...
[02:58] <LuiCal> please help
[02:58] <rich__> where about in india are you from ubuntu_
[02:58] <Eltimbalino> Frogzoo: Can I do that from the terminal that I get when I boot from CD?
[02:58] <Eltimbalino> I can't boot any other way without errors
[02:58] <Amplidude> Sorry, don't know. Anyone else?
[02:59] <Frogzoo> Eltimbalino: yes
[02:59] <rich__> anyone else a last.fm fiend?
[02:59] <ubuntu_> Rich i just want to preserve the data on my former e and f drive, c and d were kept vacant, each drive about 19.8GB
[02:59] <ilikec0ws> Eltimbalino, If they are X errors, just move to one of the virtual terminals ^^
[02:59] <netyire> Eltimbalino: try copying the file from livecd to disk (if all else fails)
[02:59] <ubuntu_> Mumbai
[02:59] <netyire> Ctl+Alt+F1
[02:59] <bobbob1016> ny00123, ok, thanks anyways, the only thing that I'm finding confusing now is that I can browse it fine in the terminal, I tried reinstalling nautilus, I'll play around with it a bit more though, thanks
[02:59] <cast> Bartzy: what is it asking? you install grub to (hd0) if you're going to use grub device names, and what happens when you ignore the advanced window? i wonder if its just asking where to tell grub the boot partition is
[02:59] <rich__> if u partition unused space, you wont overwrite anything
[02:59] <ny00123> bobbob1016, no problems :)
[02:59] <ubuntu_> I hve been hunting for ubuntu for 2 years, Rich
[02:59] <rich__> you need to be brave here
[03:00] <ubuntu_> I may use xp, but i would dedicate to ubuntu
[03:00] <Lorne_Kun> anyone have an answer to my question?
[03:00] <rich__> data loss is a scary prospect, but it wont happen if you are sensible and logical in your choices
[03:00] <ubuntu_> the philosophy is the same that i hve word to word
[03:00] <LuiCal> hellooo, please help
[03:00] <Bartzy> It asks me for "Device for boot loader installation". the default is just (hd0).
[03:00] <rich__> LuiCal??
[03:00] <cast> Bartzy: then go with the default.
[03:00] <netyire> Bartzy: did you install to hard disk or floppy?
[03:00] <Bartzy> I also have a tick box of "Popularity  contest" ... Didnt understand what it is but nevemind :)
[03:00] <Banana> Hi folks.
[03:00] <Twigathy> Bartzy: grub disk names and ubuntu disk names aren't the same :<
[03:01] <ilikec0ws> Eltimbalino, Boot up, if the errors are about xorg, hit ctrl+alt+f1, login using your username and pass then run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg-server'
[03:01] <netyire> Hi Banana
[03:01] <Pirate_Hunter> Lorne_Kun: sorry whats that? whats your question?
[03:01] <ubuntu_> my options are get xp installation cd where during installaion i can c the drives and be safe
[03:01] <Lorne_Kun> Using the single user terminal, i ran sudo cfdisk, and erased the partition tables on two of my drives and i created a new partition on each drive, but when i go to mount the drives, one of them FINALLY after much screwing around, reports the correct amount of free space, but still requires an administrator password to mount them, and the other hard drive incorrectly reports the amount of free space no matter what I do.
[03:01] <cast> Bartzy: there is a pkg called popcon that reports what you install to some server somewhere
[03:01] <Banana> I'm wondering if my system is behaving correctly
[03:01] <rich__> ubuntu_ theres no safe about it
[03:01] <Bartzy> netyire, what do u mean to a floppy ? I'm on the live cd now, trying to install ubuntu to my sata hard drive
[03:01] <T-Connect> Ubuntu with XP or Vista looks. XD
[03:01] <rich__> ubuntu_ bullet proof vests work
[03:01] <Banana> I'have a core 2 Duo Xeon 5130
[03:01] <ubuntu_> or if i get help i will go with ubuntu, but take care of other drives and data, that is in a nut shell, RICH
[03:01] <cast> Lorne_Kun: i hope you created the partitions *then* filesystems
[03:01] <Pirate_Hunter> Bartzy: if its asking hwere to laod grub that just pick the default it should find the root disk automatically
[03:02] <Banana> its a dual core which supports hyperthreading
[03:02] <netyire> Bartzy: Sorry, I was deluded :D
[03:02] <LuiCal> i need to remove all the things that brougt ubuntu' ce script
[03:02] <Banana> so technically i should be seeing 4 cpus in /proc/cpuinfo
[03:02] <Lorne_Kun> cast: i used default options in cfdisk
[03:02] <Banana> am i wrong ?
[03:02] <Bartzy> okay, so I'm going for the default (hd0) !!! :] 
[03:02] <T-Connect> I have hyperthreading on my Intel 4 3.20.
[03:02] <Lorne_Kun> i dont know what my next steps should be then.
[03:02] <ubuntu_> I hve now reconciled to the possibility of loosing data, but i like to fight
[03:02] <rich__> ubuntu_ the only problem you have is in partitioning your drive... that takes an element of commitment by yourself
[03:02] <cast> Lorne_Kun: cfdisk only partitions. it does not make any filesystems.
[03:02] <Bartzy> I'll be back with results soon (when the installation completes)... thanks
[03:02] <dannyboy79> anyone know XBMCMYTHTV?
[03:02] <Bartzy> Thanks grub, pirate_hunter, netyire and everyone :)
[03:02] <rich__> ubuntu_ you will not loose data if you do not make a sily mistake
[03:03] <Lorne_Kun> cast: ok so how do i make new filesystems there then?
[03:03] <LuiCal> after i ran ubuntu ce script it messed up a few things in my original ubuntu setting
[03:03] <rich__> ubuntu_ you have 4 drives?
[03:03] <LuiCal> my synaptic does not work
[03:03] <cast> Lorne_Kun: that depends, what filesystem would you like to use today? XFS,reiserfs,ext3,JFS are the main choices
[03:03] <Jack_Sparrow> rich__: Ubuntu gparted didnt even see his partitions
[03:03] <Banana> I only see 2 cores (CPU 1 and 0)
[03:03] <Frogzoo> Lorne_Kun: mkfs.ext3 -T largefile /dev/###
[03:03] <LuiCal> hoe can i remove ubuntu ce and all of it content???
[03:03] <Banana> I should be seeing 4
[03:03] <Nod-Ubuntu> Can someone help me with installing Synergy on ubuntu?
[03:03] <rich__> jack he said he had over 70gb of unused space
[03:03] <rich__> he could know that it if gparted didnt work
[03:03] <ubuntu_> so while installing live cd 'live-expert' is a choice and default is another, I had no problem with either
[03:04] <rich__> ^couldnt
[03:04] <ubuntu_> c d e f
[03:04] <rejden> hello, I need advice, I want to install kernel headers for 6.10, but I can't see hem thru apt, what I need to add to source.list?
[03:04] <Jack_Sparrow> rich__: I just spent 20 minutes with him..
[03:04] <Lorne_Kun> ok
[03:04] <rich__> Jack i know, your 2 mins was extended by extreme patience.
[03:04] <zenobia> rejden: Are your universe sources uncommented?
[03:04] <ubuntu_> yes 4 drives and c and d have been kept ready for dual booting xp/vista + ubuntu
[03:04] <Jack_Sparrow> rich__: He says he has 4 partitons..  didnt see any
[03:04] <Lorne_Kun> and should i be doing this through the single user terminal just to be safe... or is it ok to do it from within the terminal in gnome :P
[03:04] <OuZo> how to i exit full screen mode with vncviewer? thanks
[03:04] <rich__> where did the 70 odd number come from?
[03:04] <Jack_Sparrow> rich__: didnt see hda
[03:05] <rejden> zenobia, i'm using source.list from ubuntuguide.org (copy/paste)
[03:05] <Jack_Sparrow> rich__: Feel free to try.. he now knows how to find terminal and get gparted going
[03:05] <zenobia> rejden: Give me a sec to check in which repo the headers are
[03:05] <Op3r> hello, I installed beryl, beryl-manager, emerald-themes. It work perfectly but when I play video files. I get a black screen. Sometimes it shows the video but when you move the player i get a blank screen but the audio is still audible. any ideas?
[03:05] <rejden> zenobia, thanks
[03:05] <ubuntu_> Jack ur back i hve been waiting to thank you in this forum
[03:06] <Jack_Sparrow> no prob
[03:06] <Frogzoo> Lorne_Kun: as long as the partition's not mounted - & there's nothing on the partition
[03:06] <chadeldridge> Op3r:  Try to place beryl in AIGLX rendering mode .. that should fix it
[03:06] <rich__> ubuntu_ it seems that if data preservation is so important, buy another drive and keep the other safe, install ubuntu then mount the new drives and everything will still be intact
[03:06] <ubuntu_> A huge big thnx for your patience, time and expertise
[03:06] <rich__> if you have 4 another one cant be too hard to come by
[03:06] <BoostedSS> I'm running 6.06, what is the recomended way to do a remote session to my linux box like vnc type connection
[03:06] <ubuntu_> ok
[03:07] <Jack_Sparrow> rich__: Getting a newer copy of ubuntu and or gparted live would also help
[03:07] <netyire> BoostedSS: try tightvnc
[03:07] <Op3r> chadeldridge, where? um I mean i thought feisty fawn put aiglx on default?
[03:07] <rich__> does he have fiesty?
[03:07] <Lorne_Kun> yay
[03:07] <BoostedSS> netyire: ty :)
[03:07] <Lorne_Kun> so now all i have to do is take ownership of those volumes then?
[03:07] <astrobill> I see something on my Kmail called 'Spamassain' with a bar which apparently shows the level.  When I go to help, I can't find anything about it.  Anyone know what this is, or how to filter spam in Kmail?
[03:07] <Lorne_Kun> this is whats puzzling me of course
[03:07] <ubuntu_> yes that is important, Jack I have no idea whether this copy is old and newer version is available
[03:07] <chadeldridge> Op3r:  Inside beryl-manager / advanced options / rendering path
[03:07] <LuiCal> hey guys sorry to interrupt, but can someone please help me
[03:07] <Lorne_Kun> why wouldnt it automatically put my user as the owner of those drives?
[03:07] <zenobia> rejden: 6.10 was it, right?
[03:07] <rich__> what version do you have ubuntu_?
[03:07] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntu_: badger is old
[03:07] <rejden> zenobia, I can see only backports commented
[03:08] <rejden> zenobia, yes
[03:08] <rejden> zenobia, all others are uncommented
[03:08] <rich__> i will post you a new version if you email me your postal address
[03:08] <Roman> hey guys i was wondering if there was a p2p type program like dc++ or limewire that i can download
[03:08] <zenobia> rejden: uncomment backports aswell
[03:08] <rich__> i know you livein india

[03:09] <chadeldridge> !ask | LuiCal
[03:09] <ubotu> LuiCal: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:09] <rich__> no that is not good
[03:09] <rich__> you want at least dapper
[03:09] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[03:09] <ubuntu_> Oh I c
[03:09] <rich__> i wish you had stated this in the beginning
[03:09] <ubuntu_> good u told me
[03:09] <rich__> i suppose it is my own fault for making assumptions
[03:10] <rich__> do you want me to send you a newer version in the post?
[03:10] <LuiCal> please help me, i installed ubuntu ce script an it messed my ubuntu stup
[03:10] <zenobia> rejden: linux-headers-2.6.20-16 and such
[03:10] <ubuntu_> What is the choice? how do i select
[03:10] <_jhall_> it would be great to have an eaccelerator package available....
[03:10] <netyire> LuiCal: Hows it messed up?
[03:10] <LuiCal> i want to get back to my original stup
[03:10] <rejden> zenobia, have the same, but they ain't kernel headers
[03:10] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntu_: Dapper would be fine
[03:10] <LuiCal> i dont know it gave lots of error
[03:10] <netyire> LuiCal: did you make alot of changes (install alot of software)
[03:10] <netyire> LuiCal: You may want to back up your data and do a fresh install
[03:10] <ubuntu_> Dapper
[03:10] <Frogzoo> Jack_Sparrow: ubuntu_ dapper's gparted is broken for ntfs
[03:10] <netyire> hmm
[03:10] <zenobia> rejden: linux-headers-2.6.20-16-386 - Linux kernel headers for version 2.6.20 on i386
[03:11] <LuiCal> well the script brought a few softwares
[03:11] <netyire> what are the problems though?
[03:11] <rich__> short for dapper drake
[03:11] <netyire> hmm
[03:11] <dimeotane> samsung
[03:11] <rich__> there is lts for that version
[03:11] <rich__> rock solid
[03:11] <ubuntu_> My earlier formatting was FAT32
[03:11] <netyire> LuiCal: Well Christian edition sounds great
[03:11] <LuiCal> now a icant remove it thru synaptic, cause synaptic does not work
[03:11] <rich__> ubuntu_?
[03:11] <ubuntu_> NTFS may not show the drives
[03:11] <Op3r> chadeldridge, still the same :(
[03:11] <rich__> that is true

[03:15] <Op3r> ok thanks
[03:15] <kbrooks> ubuntu_, such details are offtopic here
[03:15] <rich__> If i use that address exactly as written the cd's will get to you?
[03:15] <incorrect> how can i turn off the system bell,
[03:15] <incorrect> i've pressed mute but i still get beeps
[03:16] <ubuntu_> Rich, Jack I hve given the address, they will reach perfectly
[03:16] <zenobia> Pirate_hunter: Azureus has an option for a blocklist, even a separate plugin with ip's from ehm.. Government agencies ;). If Azureus is too heavy for what you like, utorrent runs perfectly under wine and has the same possibility
[03:16] <rich__> nice one
[03:16] <kbrooks> ubuntu_ and rich__: please take elsewehere
[03:16] <Eltimbalino> Frogzoo: I was able to run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" while I was booted from CD. It ran me through the configure, and I excepted the options. But it made no difference.
[03:16] <vogelaarke135> compiz fusion or beryl thats the question
[03:16] <chadeldridge> incorrect:  make sure that it is linked to the volume zone in your sound manager
[03:16] <rich__> kbrooks why?
[03:16] <vogelaarke135> will fusion be in gutsy?
[03:16] <LuiCal> ok, that only configured the gdesklet
[03:16] <ubuntu_> am i bothering
[03:16] <LuiCal> what should i do now?

[03:16] <kbrooks> in public
[03:17] <rich__> yeah too late though
[03:17] <Pirate_Hunter> zenobia: nah i skip that its a resource hog even in ubuntu, i like clients like utorrent that dont take resources and are good at blocking
[03:17] <theneb> Hi all, can anyone point me in the direction of a chipset/make of bluetooth dongle that is best supported?
[03:17] <Eltimbalino> Frogzoo: I can boot the system fine when I have my projector plugged in, but then it tells me that "xorg-server" is not installed.
[03:17] <Tonisius> is there a PHP version with CURL already enabled?
[03:17] <T-Connect> Just don't talk about other Linux stuff.

[03:17] <zabin> hey
[03:17] <ubuntu_> rich, jack have i created a problem for u?
[03:17] <Tonisius> if so, what package name is it, and in what repo
[03:17] <Pirate_Hunter> zenobia: I would say perfectly as the ipfilter updater dont work on wine as it doesnt emualtes DOS
[03:18] <Op3r> chadeldridge, i get like your hardware doesnt need restricted drivers
[03:18] <rich__> ubuntu_ dude expect some copies of dapper and fiesty in the post for you and your friends, might take a few weeks, i live in the uk, a long way away
[03:18] <Op3r> :(
[03:18] <zabin> Why does my laptop's battery life sucks when i run linux? on windows i get about 4+ hours linux i only get around 2
[03:18] <rich__> please let me know when you get them, richardjennings@gmail.com
[03:18] <rich__> ubuntu_ alright?
[03:18] <Tonisius> zabin: youre ACPI settings =P
[03:18] <zenobia> Pirate_Hunter: Just an idea, but can't you use a ip-blocking tool for the whole of your network?
[03:18] <LuiCal> hello
[03:19] <zabin> Tonisius: do you know what i would have to do to fix that?
[03:19] <Frogzoo> zabin: various reasons, there are things you can do if you like fiddling
[03:19] <ubuntu_> ask@mydoctortells.com - Dr. Ashok Koparday
[03:19] <Tonisius> is there a PHP version with CURL already enabled? if so, what package name is it, and in what repo. Been looking around as needed
[03:19] <rich__> anyone abuses my email add and their in for trouble
[03:19] <Tonisius> zabin: nope, but it's a common issue with laptops and linux
[03:19] <Pirate_Hunter> zenobia: im using moblock but it aint blocking properly their are a lot of sites it should be blocking that it aint and what ip-blocking tool are your talking off
[03:19] <zabin> Tonisius: ive looked online but i was unablle to gain much information for my specific laptop'

[03:20] <Tonisius> Pirate_Hunter: ok, will do
[03:20] <ubuntu_> Thanks and bye, Rich I hve given my email and name the website is www.mydoctortells.com
[03:20] <LuiCal> i just used sudo aptitude -f install in my terminal, and i dont know what to do next to uninstall ubuntu ce
[03:20] <Pirate_Hunter> np :-)
[03:20] <Frogzoo> zabin: you can use aticonfig to enable low  power mode
[03:20] <Incandenzian> Hi all.
[03:21] <Tonisius> god, iw ant Curl enabled
[03:21] <ceil420> ugh.. brain lapse...
[03:21] <ceil420> how do i make a new folder?
[03:21] <Incandenzian> I can't use su to switch to root.
[03:21] <zabin> Frogzoo: there is no gui for that?
[03:21] <Frogzoo> ceil420: mkdir
[03:21] <LuiCal> helloooo
[03:21] <Incandenzian> I keep getting 'authentication failiure'
[03:21] <ceil420> ah thanks
[03:21] <Frogzoo> zabin: nope
[03:21] <ceil420> i tried "makedir" lol
[03:21] <Frogzoo> zabin: unfortunately the setting's not permanent
[03:22] <zenobia> Pirate_Hunter: ip-tables can block ip-ranges
[03:22] <zabin> Do you know what i have to do off hand so that i dont have to read the man page?
[03:22] <Lorne_Kun> linking me to that document was all well and good, but im still lost
[03:22] <Bothered> Incandenzian: root is disabled in ubuntu by default
[03:22] <Tonisius> Incandenzian: try sudo su
[03:22] <T-Connect> Just don't drop the soap.
[03:22] <Lorne_Kun> its _obvious_ that the permissions are incorrect
[03:22] <tambal> trying to copy folder to other folder from the root /easyshop to put it under /Products
[03:22] <Tonisius> or simply sudo <command you need>
[03:22] <Pirate_Hunter> zenobia: yeah about that I know but i havent been able to access them ad moblock downloads black listed ip ranges which are not being blocked like the INAA
[03:23] <zabin> FrogZoo: do you know what i have to do because there is no man page for aticonfig
[03:23] <Bothered> Incandenzian: see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=7118
[03:23] <incorrect> don't call me premissions
[03:23] <Incandenzian> Bothered, thanks.
[03:23] <Tonisius> zabin: have you tried aticonfig --help
[03:23] <Incandenzian> Tonisius, I think that worked!
[03:23] <Tonisius> Incandenzian: yuh
[03:23] <tambal> under /easyshop there are 3 subfolders and want to have them under /Products
[03:23] <Incandenzian> it added a prefix of 'root' onto the front of my prompt.
[03:23] <Tonisius> is there a PHP version with CURL already enabled? if so, what package name is it, and in what repo. Been looking around as needed
[03:23] <Incandenzian> so I think I'm good.
[03:23] <Tonisius> Incandenzian: that isn't true root,
[03:23] <Incandenzian> oh?
[03:23] <Tonisius> and it's not all good, but remember to exit when you are done
[03:23] <Incandenzian> so how do I enable root?
[03:24] <Tonisius> most people go by "sudo <root_command>
[03:24] <Incandenzian> I just but Sabayon on my laptop
[03:24] <Incandenzian> *put
[03:24] <Tonisius> instead of being su'd all the time
[03:24] <Incandenzian> Sabayon on my laptop, and it supports the su command.
[03:24] <Tonisius> Incandenzian: you don't wnat to enable root.
[03:24] <Tonisius> no one ever does it, it's not how the ubuntu design works
[03:24] <Incandenzian> well, I'll tell ya what I'm trying to do.
[03:24] <Bothered> Incandenzian: That's true, it's often regarded as a security issue to enable root
[03:24] <Incandenzian> I'm trying to delete a folder I created.
[03:24] <Pirate_Hunter> the esiest way to gain permission to a folder wihtout having to know the commands (please use this with care_ is to sudo nautilus and change folder permission by right clicking? this is the noob way and also dangerous. Im amazed this facility wasn't disable by default
[03:24] <Incandenzian> it says I don't have permission.
[03:24] <Tonisius> Incandenzian: then use sudo
[03:24] <Tonisius> sudo rm foldername
[03:25] <[GuS] > Incandenzian: root acc. is NOT necesary.
[03:25] <[GuS] > use always sudo
[03:25] <chadeldridge> incandenzian:  use sudo rm -rf thefoldername
[03:25] <zabin> Tonisius: do you think its this? POWERplay Options:
[03:25] <zabin>   Following options will not change the config file.
[03:25] <zabin>   These options will be effective immediately. Other options on
[03:25] <zabin>   the same command line will be ignored.
[03:25] <zabin>   --lsp, --list-powerstates
[03:25] <zabin>         Print information about power states and exit.
[03:25] <zabin>   --set-powerstate=NUMBER
[03:25] <zabin>         Set a power state listed by --list-powerstates.
[03:25] <Op3r> direct rendering: Yes <--- if i have that on my laptop i should have a problem running beryl right?
[03:25] <zenobia> Pirate_Hunter: I'm not very experienced with ip-tables, but downloading a list from, for example, blocklist.org and feeding it to the tables should be possible using some bash magic
[03:25] <Tonisius> zabin: i don't use a laptop with linux...
[03:25] <[GuS] > Op3r: depends of yuor video board
[03:25] <Tonisius> my laptop uses vista...
[03:25] <[GuS] > which is?
[03:25] <Bothered> Incandenzian: sudo passwd -l disables root, if you don't want it
[03:25] <chadeldridge> tonisius: im sorry .. lol
[03:25] <zabin> Tonisius: but doesnt that sound right powerstates?
[03:25] <Incandenzian> chadeldridge, thta worked!
[03:25] <Lorne_Kun> :/
[03:25] <Incandenzian> awesome!
[03:25] <Tonisius> chadeldridge: yeah, i hate it

[03:26] <Tonisius> chadeldridge: not really
[03:26] <[GuS] > Op3r: should work, but you need to use xgl
[03:26] <Tonisius> it's overprotective... can't blame them really..
[03:26] <Tonisius> it's like blaming mommy for not letting my watch porn at 10 years old
[03:27] <Tonisius> the only thing is, i don't want to be treated like i'm ten, when i'm 23 years old

[03:27] <Tonisius> CarinArr: company laptop, can't do that
[03:27] <[GuS] > then should work Op3r
[03:27] <[GuS] > xgl + beryl

[03:27] <Tonisius> CarinArr: yes you do
[03:27] <SirTane> okay... so i installed ubuntu for the first time
[03:28] <SirTane> tried to boot into it
[03:28] <Op3r> [GuS] , im just having a problem with video playback
[03:28] <Tonisius> CarinArr: my side business requires performance, and to be cheap, linux is the way to go on my servers
[03:28] <SirTane> got a very DOS/bio looking screen
[03:28] <Tonisius> so, can someone help me out with my PHP module problem?
[03:28] <ZeroA4> Tonisius, i have dual boot vista ubuntu at my company computer
[03:28] <[GuS] > Op3r: the drivers has
[03:28] <Tonisius> i need curl
[03:28] <SirTane> but then appeared to be stuck in a command line style thing
[03:28] <[GuS] > is aknow issue of the ati driver
[03:28] <zabin> SirTane: does it say that xserver failed to start?
[03:28] <Tonisius> is there a PHP version with CURL already enabled? if so, what package name is it, and in what repo. Been looking around as needed
[03:28] <Op3r> oh ok
[03:28] <SirTane> zabin: i never get graphics
[03:28] <CarinArr> Tonisius: your company actually supports vista? mine is well off that point
[03:28] <[GuS] > which version of the ATI propietary driveryou are using Op3r?
[03:28] <SirTane> it's still text only, it asks me to log in which i do
[03:28] <Bothered> SirTane: Any errors? Can you log in? Have you tried startx?
[03:28] <SirTane> then that's the end of it
[03:28] <Tonisius> CarinArr: i don't support it, if that matters? they buy the hardware., and expect us to use them
[03:28] <Pirate_Hunter> SirTane: why is ubuntu login you in through command line what version did you install
[03:28] <chadeldridge> SirTane:  try to do a startx
[03:28] <SirTane> startx?  is that what i need to get into the REAL OS?
[03:28] <zabin> SirTane: Do you install the server verison?
[03:29] <SirTane> don't think so
[03:29] <Op3r> [GuS] , just using what ubuntu installed how do you what driver are you using?
[03:29] <Tonisius> i rarely ever use the laptop, it just collecting dust in the trunk of my car
[03:29] <[GuS] > the lastest Op3r
[03:29] <CarinArr> Tonisius: i just meant a lot of companies still tell people not to get vista because it's still got crap software support
[03:29] <Tonisius> when i use it, it's for configuring switches
[03:29] <[GuS] > let me paste the link for upgrade it Op3r
[03:29] <[GuS] > wait
[03:29] <CarinArr> anyway, offtopic
[03:29] <CarinArr> was just curious;)
[03:29] <Tonisius> This channel is too strange
[03:29] <[GuS] > Op3r: follow this HOWTO http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Feisty_Installation_Guide
[03:29] <Tonisius> CarinArr: yeah, a bit off topic, but this channel is very... disorienting...
[03:29] <Bothered> SirTane: startx will start the graphical front end
[03:29] <[GuS] > you will have latest driver
[03:30] <CarinArr> how so Tonisius?
[03:30] <zabin> SirTane: Do you know what kind of video card you have?
[03:30] <SirTane> Bothered, so that's what i should use?
[03:30] <LuiCal> please helpppp me with my ubuntu ce issues!

[03:30] <Op3r> ok
[03:30] <rich__> Tonisius have you done you dirty deed yet?
[03:30] <CarinArr> oh heh
[03:30] <Lunar_Lamp> Everytime I boot up I get asked for the password to my keyring so that I can connect to my wireless network, how can I stop this happening?
[03:30] <Tonisius> but instead i keep reading questions i have yet to understand what they mean
[03:30] <chadeldridge> SirTane:  if you get an error saying cant start x then try to do a sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-org
[03:30] <SirTane> zabin, i don't think i have a problem other than i don't know what to do
[03:30] <CarinArr> LuiCal: what issues would those be?
[03:30] <Tonisius> rich__: ? i helped 2 guys so far. so not sure
[03:30] <zabin> SirTane: i would try the following things..... I would write this down.
[03:30] <Lunar_Lamp> I want it to connect without me typing in the passowrd
[03:30] <[GuS] > Op3r: just follow the steps to the Configure the Driver section
[03:30] <[GuS] > you dont need the rest
[03:30] <Frogzoo> Tonisius: this is a noob chan, so a certain level of vagueness goes with the territory
[03:30] <Bothered> SirTane: You should try it, but if there's a problem that prevented it launching on boot then startx won't work. At the very least it'll give you an error
[03:30] <SirTane> can you tell me in pvt, zabin?
[03:30] <zabin> Sirtane: the GUI should automatially start though
[03:30] <Tonisius> Frogzoo: i see...
[03:31] <rich__> Tonisius you asked if you should put me on spam lists, have you?
[03:31] <[GuS] > Op3r:  i mean, dont do sudo aticonfig --initial

[03:34] <[GuS] > like it say
[03:34] <Op3r> ok
[03:34] <[GuS] > so, yes, you need it
[03:34] <CarinArr> LuiCal: how did you install it?
[03:34] <Pirate_Hunter> LuiCal: i understand you're frustrated but we dont know al the answers, all I can advise is to try the LiveCD to repair your version of ubuntu or something like knopik if thats correct
[03:34] <[GuS] > Op3r: remember to uninstall the one you have from the repos
[03:34] <[GuS] > before installe this new one
[03:34] <Bothered> LuiCal didn't give me a chance there - I was looking it up
[03:34] <[GuS] > brb
[03:35] <rich__> just a guess
[03:35] <Pirate_Hunter> BRB gone to sleep ZzZzZzZz
[03:37] <zabin> Does anyone here know how to change the power options using aticonfig?
[03:38] <CarinArr> zabin: http://technowizah.com/2007/01/debian-how-to-power-management.html
[03:38] <CarinArr> does that help?
[03:38] <PG_> hey i have a question
[03:39] <rich__> PG_?
[03:39] <CarinArr> PG_: ask;)
[03:39] <PG_> its about the shit ati
[03:39] <CarinArr> err heh
[03:40] <rich__> i refuse to believe this is your email add tonisius
[03:40] <CarinArr> o.O
[03:40] <zabin> CarinArr: hold on
[03:40] <PG_> xorg is automately installed but i cant play 3d games but when i installed the fglrx from ati beryl doesnt run anymore
[03:40] <CarinArr> zabin: at closer inspection that is possibly not what you're looking for
[03:41] <PG_> i cant speak english very well
[03:41] <zabin> CarinArr: yea i dont think thats what i need but i tihnk it might help improve my laptops battery life and thats what i am looking for.
[03:41] <PG_> ive speak 3 languages and so can you discribe it easily
[03:41] <zabin> CarinArr: do you run linux on a laptop?
[03:42] <CarinArr> PG_: all my machines use nvidia, so i'm afraid i can't help you with ati, but have you tried looking at the beryl faq?
[03:42] <CarinArr> zabin: i do yes
[03:42] <zabin> CarinArr: how is your battery life? when i run windows i get about 4 hours out of it on linux i only get about 2
[03:42] <PG_> does some has a ati driver that runs 3d games and runs beryl too
[03:42] <Klekkus> hei, can anybody please tell me how i change the language from german to english?
[03:43] <T-Connect> I should get Nvidia on my next computer.
[03:43] <CarinArr> zabin: my bios is slightly broken, so my gpu fans don't come on in linux.. i actually get longer battery life than in windows;)
[03:43] <Klekkus> T-Connect: nvidia got the best linux drivers :)
[03:43] <SirTane> yeah... it still doesn't work
[03:43] <zabin> CarinArr: so your laptop will over heat if you run linux?"
[03:43] <SirTane> so much for linux "just working" heh
[03:44] <andylockran> just tried putting my ipod into the usb of the xubuntu laptop I'm running
[03:44] <SirTane> never had these problems with windows or osx
[03:44] <zabin> SirTane: did you try what i told you?
[03:44] <andylockran> SirTane:  whats the problem
[03:44] <SirTane> yep
[03:44] <CarinArr> zabin: not so far, my gpu doesn't really go over 70c and i work with graphics
[03:44] <SirTane> it said xserver wasn't installed
[03:44] <zabin> andy;ockran: when he starts his computer he doesnt get a gui
[03:44] <SirTane> or something along those lines, didn't much care for what it said
[03:45] <zabin> SirTane: i think your downloaded SERVER EDITION
[03:45] <zabin> no?
[03:45] <SirTane> no.
[03:45] <CarinArr> still not the continuous gpu use you'd get in games, but i rarely play games in linux
[03:45] <rich__> 1974?
[03:45] <andylockran> SirTane: so you've downloaded and installed ubuntu, and the xserver isn't starting..
[03:45] <zabin> SirTane: hrm that would only make sense i have never had that problem and i have been using linux for a long time
[03:46] <zabin> SirTane: perhaps your cd you used to install it on is messed up?
[03:46] <zabin> i got to go bye all
[03:46] <andylockran> SirTane: did you run an md5 checksum of the CD?
[03:46] <CarinArr> what video card does SirTane have?
[03:46] <SirTane> andylockran: i didn't install from the cd
[03:46] <PG_> had some one a driver for ati graphics cards that runs 3d and beryl too
[03:46] <andylockran> SirTane: how did you do the install
[03:46] <zabin> CarinArr: idk tell him to do lspci and tell you
[03:46] <k31th> Guys i have no grub dir in boot and no menu.lst
[03:46] <k31th> any ideas?
[03:46] <andylockran> k31th: have you mounted /boot
[03:47] <CarinArr> zabin: yeah, i just realised that should have no impact on the xserver actually being installed though;)
[03:47] <andylockran> run sudo mount /boot then try again
[03:47] <zabin> i told him to do dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg but he said that didnt help him
[03:47] <SirTane> andylockran: i installed with the netinstall
[03:47] <genii> k31th: Did you manually install grub?
[03:47] <daan> genii: hi again :)
[03:47] <genii> daan Hello :)
[03:47] <Michl_> hi i always get by using "apt-get upgrade" this error: http://rafb.net/p/UtO6uN53.html  does anybody know how to solve this problem?
[03:47] <SirTane> genii: grub was installed, although i did NOT do it manually
[03:47] <PG_> 1124 users and no help
[03:48] <k31th> andylockran: it looks to be mounted I can see the kernels in there if i ls
[03:48] <CarinArr> SirTane: think that question was for someone else
[03:48] <andylockran> SirTane: I'm afraid I've only ever installed a fresh install off CD - and not had problems with this method for ubuntu.  If you can't solve the current problem I recommend trying a CD install
[03:48] <k31th> genii: no standard install
[03:48] <LMZ> hello to all
[03:48] <genii> k31th SirTane  Are you the same person?
[03:48] <LMZ> how to remove package with all dependencies ?
[03:48] <k31th> no.
[03:48] <SirTane> andylockran: this is just kinda my junker pc with no cd drive
[03:48] <Klekkus> Hey, can anybody please tell me how i change the language from german to english?
[03:48] <genii> work calls brb
[03:48] <SirTane> genii: no, my mistake.
[03:49] <bimb0> hi =)
[03:49] <SirTane> i'll try a fresh install
[03:49] <CarinArr> k31th: do you have more than one hd/partition?
[03:49] <andylockran> SirTane: ok, um... if you run sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop - do you already have all the packages?
[03:49] <andylockran> SirTane: if it asks you to download more, then you don't
[03:49] <daan> Klekkus: system - admin - language support
[03:49] <Nod-Ubuntu> Does anyone mind helping me with a software install problem?
[03:49] <SirTane> andylockran: i'll need to restart for that
[03:49] <k31th> CarinArr: im using sw raid1 with LVM.
[03:49] <andylockran> SirTane: why?
[03:50] <fssssssssssh> does anyone know howto change the color (not the size) of the font of the windowbar at the bottom?
[03:50] <k31th> CarinArr: using 2 HD's
[03:50] <SirTane> andylockran: because i'm in windows now, remember, i said i can't get linux to work?
[03:50] <CarinArr> k31th: more than on os?
[03:50] <PG_> can some one tell me how i get in parrales virtual maschine a good internet connection work
[03:50] <k31th> CarinArr: NO.
[03:50] <k31th> soz.
[03:50] <CarinArr> o.O
[03:50] <k31th> no just Ubuntu.
[03:50] <k31th> hit caps lock... thats my bad
[03:50] <andylockran> SirTane: ok - can you not even get a terminal connection
[03:50] <CarinArr> k31th: you can try reinstalling grub maybe?
[03:51] <k31th> CarinArr: i guess
[03:51] <SirTane> andylockran: i don't know.  english please?
[03:51] <PG_> who
[03:51] <CarinArr> k31th: using http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351 you shouldn't mess anything up
[03:51] <genii> k31th: Did grub install to mbr or to /dev/md0  or so?
[03:51] <andylockran> SirTane: sorry.  When you load up ubuntu - does it still give you a commandline?
[03:51] <SirTane> yes
[03:51] <PG_> hey hier wird man doch bekloppppppppppppppppttttttttttt alles reden wie die krten^
[03:52] <k31th> genii: /dev/md0
[03:52] <andylockran> SirTane: is the computer connected to the internet/a network?
[03:52] <Dishin> To anyone who can answer my question, I downloaded Ubuntu and i burned the .ico file onto a disk. When I booted off the disk (I'm on Windows and I wanted to test it) it wouldn't work and made me boot back into Windows. Where did I go wrong?
[03:52] <SirTane> andylockran: talking to you, ain't i?
[03:52] <Nod-Ubuntu> Does anyone know why my synergy1.3.1.deb install says its installed but won't show synergy in my add/remove apps section?
[03:52] <daan> Dishin: Is the Bios set to boot from CD
[03:52] <Dishin> CD/DVD
[03:52] <SlimeyPete> Dishin: did you burn the ISO as an ISO, or di you just plonk it onto the disk as a .iso file?
[03:52] <daan> Dishin: And how did you burn the ISO
[03:52] <k31th> The program 'grub' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
[03:52] <k31th> wat the hell ?
[03:52] <Dishin> I plonked it Slimey
[03:52] <k31th> how is this booting
[03:52] <CarinArr> Dishin: when you say you burned the iso, did you burn is AS an iso or just move the file onto the disk?
[03:53] <k31th> is it using lilo ?
[03:53] <daan> Dishin: that ain't gonna work
[03:53] <andylockran> SirTane: Ok, well boot into the commandline.  you can then install irssi which is a command line irc client
[03:53] <CarinArr> heh
[03:53] <genii> k31th: I'm starting to think so actually
[03:53] <Dishin> How can I get it to work?
[03:53] <PG_> does ati made a driver for beryl and 3d
[03:53] <k31th> im running fiesty
[03:53] <SirTane> andylockran: nice!
[03:53] <SlimeyPete> Dishin: that won't work. You need to go to the image burning bit of your CD writer software ad tell it to burn the ISO as an image.
[03:53] <andylockran> then you don't have to boot into windows and can solve the problems from inside linux without having to reboot
[03:53] <SirTane> andylockran, how do i get it to open?
[03:53] <k31th> genii: im not to clued up on lilo
[03:53] <Michl_> what can i do against E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[03:53] <daan> Dishin: Burn it with this http://www.snapfiles.com/get/burncdcc.html
[03:53] <andylockran> SirTane: get what to open.. run aptitude install irssi
[03:54] <SirTane> andylockran: word for word, what will i need to type to get it to download, install and open?
[03:54] <CarinArr> k31th: maybe the installer decided your hw configuration worked better with lilo
[03:54] <CarinArr> not sure it's as intelligent as that tho;)
[03:54] <k31th> ok
[03:54] <Dishin> Thanks guys!
[03:54] <genii> Nod-Ubuntu: If you installed it by downloading the deb then used dpkg to install it, the package manager will have it in a state where it does not know how to uninstall it because it was done manually
[03:54] <k31th> where is the conf file for lilo ?
[03:54] <k31th> !lilo
[03:54] <ubotu> lilo is an alternative [Li] nux Boot[Lo] ader. Note: it is recommended that you use GRUB on Ubuntu instead.
[03:54] <SlimeyPete> Michl_: that just means the package installer encountered an error. You'll need to figure out what the error was.
[03:54] <darkmatter> CarinArr: nope.. it wouldn't do that... ubuntu's pretty much grubby ;)
[03:54] <Michl_> http://rafb.net/p/UtO6uN53.html @ SlimeyPete
[03:55] <genii> k31th: Usually somewhere like /etc/lilo/lilo.conf or /etc/lilo.conf   i forget, it's been a whilel
[03:55] <darkmatter> you can install lilo manually though
[03:55] <PG_> how can i get this chat on german
[03:55] <SlimeyPete> !german
[03:55] <ubotu> Deutschsprachige Hilfe fuer Probleme mit Ubuntu, Kubuntu und Edubuntu finden Sie in den Kanaelen #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #xubuntu-de und #edubuntu-de
[03:55] <k31th> genii: i have lilo.conf in /etc ..
[03:55] <CarinArr> though you'd probably realise you'd done it;)
[03:55] <SirTane> andylockran: yep
[03:55] <andylockran> ok, log in as that user
[03:55] <Michl_> ok
[03:55] <PG_> aha
[03:55] <andylockran> type aptitude install irssi
[03:55] <andylockran> then type irssi
[03:55] <andylockran> in irssi type /server irc.ubuntu.com
[03:56] <SirTane> that's all?
[03:56] <k31th> should i use grub instead
[03:56] <andylockran> yeah, very simple (providing network connectivity is already there
[03:56] <genii> k31th: So it looks like this is what happened then, lilo instead of grub got installed for some reason
[03:56] <SlimeyPete> Michl_: tried dist-upgrade instead?
[03:56] <andylockran> SirTane: if you want to check for network connectivity first, just ping bbc.co.uk or something first
[03:57] <darkmatter> k31th: if you can get it running, yes.. lilo is a pita
[03:57] <SirTane> k
[03:57] <k31th> genii: think its due to LVM
[03:57] <SirTane> brb, rebooting into err... "linux"
[03:57] <andylockran> SirTane: good luck
[03:57] <k31th> and some sort of bug with it.
[03:57] <k31th> some bug with grub.
[03:57] <Michl_> SlimeyPete: Then the same error appears
[03:57] <genii> k31th: Possibly. It's been so long now since I dealt with lilo that I'm pretty much no help from here in :(
[03:58] <SlimeyPete> Michl_: oh dear. Looks like for some reason some files were not properly installed, and now it can't remove them.
[03:59] <Nod-Ubuntu> Okay, I did the dpkg -i <filename> - It says 'Setting up synergy ... - Then finished and returned me to /Desktop$
[03:59] <Nod-Ubuntu> But I'm not seeing synergy in my add/remove apps list.
[04:00] <SlimeyPete> I think add/remove apps only lists apps which were installed via the reposiories? But don't quote me. Why did you install it from the .deb?
[04:00] <genii> Nod-Ubuntu: Thats what I just said earlier. If you manually install a package with dpkg, then the window manager add/remove system does not know how to properly deal with the thing.
[04:00] <Michl_> i just used apt-get upgrade
[04:00] <SlimeyPete> it's available in the repositories.
[04:01] <Nod-Ubuntu> The repositories that I'm seeing only have the 'quicksynergy' which doesn't give me the option of seeing up screen switching etc.. The only options it has is, "Whats the IP of the server..." that doesn't help for configuration.
[04:01] <Nod-Ubuntu> And the reason I'm using the .deb to install is because I don't know how to compile the src code, and I heard linux doesn't execute binaries.
[04:01] <SlimeyPete> Nod-Ubuntu: synergy is in Universe (at least, for Feisty)
[04:02] <genii> !info synergy feisty
[04:02] <kbrooks_> Nod-Ubuntu, it can, but not windows binaries.
[04:02] <ubotu> synergy: Share mouse, keyboard and clipboard over the network. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.3.1-2ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 593 kB, installed size 1460 kB
[04:02] <netyire> try checkinstall
[04:02] <kbrooks_> Nod-Ubuntu, i mean natively
[04:02] <stoney> lo
[04:02] <genii> In optional repos
[04:02] <SlimeyPete> Nod-Ubuntu: Linu executes binaries just fine (every OS does), but the binaries have t have been compiled for Linux.
[04:02] <netyire> just apt-get build <program>
[04:02] <netyire> then make
[04:02] <netyire> then checkinstall -D
[04:02] <Nod-Ubuntu> kbrooks_: Okay
[04:02] <netyire> :D
[04:03] <kbrooks_> Nod-Ubuntu, if you want to execute windows binaries, then get wine
[04:03] <kbrooks_> !info wine
[04:03] <ubotu> wine: Microsoft Windows Compatibility Layer (Binary Emulator and Library). In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9.33-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 9576 kB, installed size 44452 kB
[04:03] <SlimeyPete> Nod-Ubuntu: if you enable the universe repository you should be able to see synergy in there.
[04:03] <kbrooks_> Nod-Ubuntu, just a warning: wine = Wine Is Not an Emulator
[04:04] <genii> Nod-Ubuntu: Do you have repository universe enabled ? that is where the package is
[04:04] <Nod-Ubuntu> SlimeyPete: I'll see if I can find it.
[04:04] <Nod-Ubuntu> Genii: I'm not sure.
[04:04] <Nod-Ubuntu> kbrooks_:  I understand that, I have VMplayer for my virtualization even though I don't know how to use it. :-)

[04:04] <name> hello
[04:04] <name> I'm having a problem with the livecd
[04:05] <netyire> name: what problems?
[04:05] <SirTane> kay, i'm in this irssi thing
[04:05] <name> I cannot chroot into my ubuntu
[04:05] <name> ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo chroot /media/disk-2/
[04:05] <name> chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': Permission denied
[04:05] <SirTane> this has gone from frustrating to fun
[04:05] <rambo3> lol
[04:05] <andylockran> SirTane: hehe - I only switched to irssi yesterday
[04:05] <name> the permission right allow root to run /bin/bash
[04:05] <netyire> hmm
[04:05] <andylockran> SirTane: seems to be a good client though
[04:05] <netyire> how long has the livecd been running?
[04:06] <name> netyire: just booted it why?
[04:06] <netyire> try reopening the terminal
[04:06] <SirTane> andylockran: now what?
[04:06] <andylockran> SirTane: switch back and forth to different screens by pressing ctrl+alt+f2
[04:06] <name> i tried the tty
[04:06] <name> did not work either
[04:06] <kbrooks_> name: ping
[04:06] <andylockran> ctrl+alt+f1 to switch back to this one
[04:06] <netyire> hmm
[04:06] <name> kbrooks_: pong
[04:06] <andylockran> SirTane: that works?
[04:06] <SirTane> hahaha, i switched out before reading the second part
[04:06] <SirTane> figured it out though
[04:06] <SirTane> yeah, it works
[04:06] <kbrooks_> name: it's talking about /bin/bash in the chroot
[04:07] <netyire> maybe something went wrong with the startup (this is a guess - amid not a very good one)
[04:07] <name> kbrooks_: so? I checked it's permission rights
[04:07] <netyire> try rebooting
[04:07] <andylockran> excellent - so when I ask you to enter in a command switch to another console :P
[04:07] <name> netyire: is this windows? :)
[04:07] <netyire> haha :D
[04:07] <andylockran> ok - type aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[04:07] <SirTane> andylockran: sure thing, chief
[04:07] <dmdzine> hello, does anybody know about setting up wireless usb devices on XUBUNTU
[04:07] <netyire> hmm
[04:07] <name> netyire: I just need to reset grub
[04:07] <netyire> let me try google
[04:07] <netyire> hold on...
[04:07] <name> i'll google too
[04:07] <SirTane> andylockran: how do i open another terminal?
[04:08] <SirTane> andylockran, how do i open another terminal?
[04:08] <andylockran> hold down ctrl+alt+fx (where x is a different terminal)  you're currently using f1
[04:08] <SirTane> i've got a blank screen
[04:08] <netyire> http://mandrivausers.org/lofiversion/index.php/t36838.html
[04:08] <genii> dmdzine Perhaps try in channel #xubuntu   xubuntu is not officially supported
[04:08] <SirTane> yeah, i can get a blank black screen to come up
[04:08] <andylockran> SirTane: do you not have a command line on the other ones
[04:08] <name> seems to be a ubuntu problem
[04:08] <andylockran> try f3 f4 f5
[04:08] <SirTane> nope, i do not
[04:08] <dmdzine> i need help
[04:08] <SirTane> same deal
[04:09] <SirTane> i have the blinking cursor
[04:09] <SirTane> but that's all
[04:09] <SirTane> when i type, nothing comes up
[04:09] <andylockran> ok :s  =  have you ever used 'screen' before?
[04:09] <netyire> http://mandrivausers.org/lofiversion/index.php/t36838.html
[04:09] <aldarsior> why can nmap only scan 5 hosts before crashing?
[04:09] <netyire> name: any success with following
[04:09] <SirTane> screen?  i don't think so
[04:09] <name> kbrooks_: I think i know you, are you in #blender @ freenode?
[04:09] <aldarsior> and by crashing I mean hanging indefinitely
[04:09] <aldarsior> until sigint
[04:09] <andylockran> ok - you'll have to quit irssi to do this - but then you'll be able to get back in
[04:09] <SlimeyPete> aldarsior: it should be able to. Sounds like something's up with your system.
[04:09] <SirTane> that's fine
[04:09] <kbrooks_> name: no
[04:09] <andylockran> write down these commands
[04:10] <rpedro> can someone tell me what the process 'klogd' does?
[04:10] <name> hm,i know your nick tho
[04:10] <SirTane> sure thing
[04:10] <andylockran> aptitude install screen
[04:10] <dmdzine> i need help with a wireless usb toggle
[04:10] <andylockran> then when you type screen you'll get a new screen
[04:10] <kbrooks_> name: uh, yeah, i'm kyle brooks
[04:10] <SirTane> k
[04:10] <SirTane> so get two of those going, i assume?
[04:10] <andylockran> then restart irssi and come back here :)
[04:10] <aldarsior> SlimeyPete, any idea what it could be?
[04:10] <SirTane> you got it.
[04:10] <SirTane> exit
[04:10] <SirTane> err
[04:10] <SirTane> HAH
[04:10] <andylockran> hehe
[04:10] <SirTane> how do i exit?
[04:10] <hero> rpedro: it's the kernel logging daemon
[04:10] <SlimeyPete> aldarsior: does other networking stuff work ok?
[04:11] <andylockran> type /part
[04:11] <name> man this sucks, must use a script to make chroot work, what did ubuntu do there again
[04:11] <aldarsior> SlimeyPete, yep
[04:11] <dmdzine> can someone help me with my wireless networking
[04:11] <SlimeyPete> aldarsior: is there  a firewall or router betwen you and the other machines?
[04:11] <rpedro> hero: and do you know where it writes the logs, what file?
[04:11] <aldarsior> SlimeyPete, they're not in my subnet, I'm scanning one of our other subnets
[04:11] <hero> rpedro: take a look in /var/log
[04:12] <name> doesn't matter, I'm just gonna use the gentoo live-cd
[04:12] <SlimeyPete> aldarsior: at a guess, some firewall or IDS is detecting the scan and blocking you
[04:12] <SirTane> k
[04:12] <aldarsior> root_____, don't irc as root.
[04:12] <name> thanks anyway
[04:12] <SirTane> screen
[04:12] <SirTane> done :p
[04:12] <SlimeyPete> aldarsior: nmap does seem to take forever to time out when it's being blocked
[04:12] <hero> rpedro: it might be called kernel or kern.log.  but look around in that directory
[04:12] <aldarsior> SlimeyPete, that's annoying. I'll have to kick the cisco guy
[04:12] <rpedro> hero: just had what seems was a freeze (the screen wouldn't light up). went to ssh session I had from another pc, running top, it was klogd hogging the cpu
[04:12] <name> I'll just search another live-cd around here
[04:12] <hero> rpedro: yeah, i read that
[04:13] <SirTane> andylockran: got screens installed
[04:13] <andylockran> SirTane: excellent
[04:13] <rpedro> hero: hmm, a bug report?
[04:13] <hero> rpedro: probably not. there's probably a good explanation for your problem.
[04:13] <andylockran> SirTane: what's happening is that you're running this on a virtual screen - so you can leave this running even when doing other stuff
[04:14] <SirTane> ah
[04:14] <andylockran> to detach from this screen press ctrl+d then a  -and to RE-attach type screen -raAd
[04:14] <PG_> no i dont have quite
[04:14] <hero> rpedro: does this problem happen often or just once?
[04:14] <PG_> quit
[04:14] <andylockran> SirTane: try that
[04:14] <Montaro> i think its actually ctrl+a then d
[04:14] <Montaro> not ctrl+d then a
[04:15] <rpedro> hero: not sure, first time I looked in ssh session from another machine when this has happened
[04:15] <SirTane> um
[04:15] <SirTane> what?
[04:15] <SirTane> nothing happened
[04:15] <andylockran> SirTane: when you press ctrl+d then a does it send you ack to command line (it should)
[04:15] <hero> rpedro: kernel hacking is a bit outside my expertise. i'd disable power management in your screen if it happens again.
[04:15] <SirTane> control d, much like the goggles, does nothing
[04:15] <andylockran> sorry
[04:15] <andylockran> SirTane: ctrl+a then d
[04:15] <andylockran> oops - my bad
[04:16] <andylockran> but rember how to get back in
[04:16] <Montaro> andylockran: i was about to correct you again :P
[04:16] <andylockran> Montaro: thanks :p 0 didn't see that
[04:16] <name> now i got it
[04:16] <name> it was the automounters fault
[04:16] <netyire> !
[04:16] <SirTane2> yeah
[04:16] <SirTane2> it worked
[04:17] <Montaro> SirTane: also, if you have multiple screens running do screen -x to show a list and then you'll need to do screen -r <pid>
[04:17] <SirTane2> but i couldn't figure out how to get back to this
[04:17] <SirTane2> so i missed pretty much everything you said
[04:17] <andylockran> screen -raAd
[04:17] <rpedro> hero: had some freezes before, almost always when I'm at the pc, normally moving the mouse or something, the screen just freezes, though not sure if all the apps do, like if I have media player playing music, not sure right now, but I think sound just stops.
[04:17] <rpedro> ...
[04:17] <SirTane2> how would i get back to it?
[04:17] <andylockran> go back to the command line - and just type screen- -raAd
[04:17] <SirTane2> with the slashes like that?
[04:17] <andylockran> 'screen -raAd
[04:17] <SirTane2> k
[04:17] <hero> rpedro: your question might be answered better in another channel. maybe #linux
[04:17] <andylockran> no, just the one
[04:17] <name> amen
[04:17] <name> thank you
[04:18] <SirTane> got it
[04:18] <PG_> some girls here
[04:18] <andylockran> ok - now on the command line run sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[04:18] <SirTane> k
[04:18] <andylockran> Montaro: what's your opinion on SirTane's situation?
[04:19] <bobbob1016> ny00123, I found out what the issue that caused nautilus to crash was, not sure why it'd happen all of the sudden, but it was my auto-mount for a network drive, I took it out of the fstab, and rebooted, and everything works fine.
[04:19] <rpedro> hero: I was thinking this could be because I have an ati card, but other things are affected, like right now, when this last crash, I had top running in ssh session, when I exited it I couldn't run any other programs, got input/output errors or something similar
[04:20] <Montaro> andylockran: I think he needs to figure out the ctrl+a then d thing.. its a bit hard to explain in text.. lets try.. basically do this.. press ctrl+a (like ctrl and a at the same time) then let it off and hit d.. that should detatch you.. make any sense?
[04:20] <ny00123> bobbob1016 I've read
[04:20] <andylockran> Montaro: sorry - that's all working fine
[04:20] <PG_> i need a driver who runs 3d games and beryl
[04:20] <hero> rpedro: strange. i have no idea, sorry.
[04:20] <rambo3> PG_, buy nvidia
[04:20] <andylockran> Montaro: he can't get a graphical environment after a fresh netinstall of ubuntu
[04:20] <PG_> hehehe funny
[04:20] <Montaro> ahh
[04:21] <Montaro> what kind of error is startx giving?
[04:21] <Tha-Fox> is there anyone who could help me to install acer_acpi?
[04:21] <rpedro> hero: ok, thx anyway
[04:21] <ny00123> bobbob1016, maybe there's some bad file in that network drive? (e.g. a non-standard png) or permissions/connectivity issue?
[04:21] <andylockran> Montaro: so just got him to get screen an irssi working so I could help him
[04:21] <andylockran> he's getting those outputs for me now
[04:21] <Barber> God Day all
[04:21] <PG_> i neeeeeeeeed a ati driver who runsssssssss 3d games and beryl does something like this exist?????????
[04:21] <rambo3> no
[04:21] <andylockran> PG_: aiglx
[04:22] <PG_> who can i download them
[04:22] <Montaro> andylockran: ok cool, the errors its giving should aid us in a more successful diagnosis of the problem :)
[04:22] <pike__> PG_: you need an nvidia card :) an older one that costs just a few bucks
[04:22] <Barber> How do i set up a usb drive for install
[04:22] <andylockran> PG_: there are loads of howtos on running beryl and ati - I've seen a few trying to get the nvidia beryl working
[04:22] <andylockran> just google :p
[04:22] <bobbob1016> ny00123, I don't think so, since I manually mounted it just now, and it works fine, it might have been an SMB update or something
[04:22] <PG_> ok you have right but i used this pc for games in windos
[04:22] <rpedro> hero: btw no messages in either /var/log/kern.log or .../messages since around 07:30, it's 15:22 where I am
[04:22] <ny00123> oh-k
[04:22] <ny00123> ;P
[04:22] <andylockran> Montaro: I've also got him to run aptitude install ubuntu-desktop - to make sure he's got all the packages installed
[04:23] <hero> rpedro: weird. maybe some hardware isn't configured properly?
[04:23] <imitation> hey, i thinking about setting up a 64bit-ubuntu. Is it possible to use my existing 32bit installation as a chroot in the 64bit one?
[04:23] <PG_> andylockran: On my pc beryl runs but no 3d games
[04:23] <rpedro> could be
[04:23] <bobbob1016> ny00123, I'm going to figure that out now, I just thought you'd want to know what the solution was, thanks again
[04:23] <Montaro> andylockran: good thinking, has he already done installed the ubuntu-desktop metapackage, or is he doing that now?
[04:23] <ny00123> bobbob1016 no problem ;D
[04:24] <genii> Barber Make sure it's plugged in and connected then run the usual install. It will be some device like /dev/sdX   where X is the number, depending on how many hd you have already in the computer
[04:24] <pike__> andylockran: can he grab the xfonts-base and xserver-xorg packages?
[04:24] <PG_> shit ati i hate they why they cant make a driver
[04:24] <andylockran> Montaro: I don't know - ut given he's not back here yet means that the aptitude install ubuntu-desktop probably had to do something
[04:24] <andylockran> pike__: ^same
[04:24] <genii> Barber Also your bios of computer should be set to allow boot from usb/alternate sources
[04:25] <Barber> ok
[04:25] <Barber> got a usb 40gb hard drive 33gb is fat 16
[04:25] <Montaro> andylockran: ah i see. which might be a good thing, that might even solve his problem alone. Lets hope he either has the CD setup as his apt mirror, or he had a decent connection, because a full ubuntu-desktop install is quite large if you need to download it all on a slow line :P
[04:25] <andylockran> Montaro: pike__:  I'm gonna have to head out in 5 - and chance one of you can talk it throgh with SirTane?
[04:25] <Barber> the rest is unused
[04:26] <genii> Barber If you will be trying to use this on other systems, then you should in bios make the usb first boot device. then install the grub at end of install to mbr of the drive
[04:26] <Montaro> andylockran: sure thing I'll help him as best i can.
[04:26] <andylockran> Montaro: kudos
[04:26] <Barber> kk thanks genii
[04:26] <genii> Barber np
[04:26] <Barber> :)
[04:26] <Montaro> andylockran: np, ciao :)
[04:26] <Montaro> SirTane: you around yet?
[04:27] <Tha-Fox> I tried to install acer_acpi but it says there's no support for 2.4-series kernel. could someone help me to install some other version?
[04:27] <k-os> how do i run the text install from the ubuntu 7.04 cd?
[04:28] <Michael147> Can anybody reccommend a firewall for linux?
[04:28] <andylockran> Michael147: shorewall
[04:28] <andylockran> Montaro: see you later - off now
[04:28] <genii> Yes, shorewall is good
[04:28] <Michael147> Thanks alot and andylockran
[04:28] <ZeroA4> k-os, you need the AlternateCD
[04:28] <genii> Also smoothwall but i think it is still commercial
[04:28] <ZeroA4> k-os, The DesktopCD does not have text install
[04:29] <k-os> ZeroA4: , was afriad so, the graphical installer quits during the install, no info or any reason why
[04:29] <Barber> gona try a differant usb hard drive
[04:29] <Klekkus> daan: I'm using ssh. i dont have control over the dektop
[04:29] <genii> k-os: What type cpu do you have?
[04:29] <Klekkus> so i need a command
[04:29] <k-os> genii: Intel Centron
[04:30] <genii> k-os Dual core?
[04:30] <k-os> genii, yes
[04:30] <jnewman> an anyone help me with a graphics card issue
[04:30] <genii> k-os Try then putting as a kernel option before install starts,   notsc
[04:30] <daan> Klekkus: then I don't know how to do it
[04:30] <Klekkus> k
[04:31] <k-os> genii, nevermind, it is not dual core
[04:31] <genii> k-os: Also if you have multi-head video or more than one video card try plugging monitor into the other plugs to see if default video is perhaps not what you were using before
[04:31] <k-os> genii my bad: it's a Intel Celeron D. processor
[04:31] <genii> k-os: Ah, OK :)
[04:31] <dmdzine> Can anyone help me with my wireless networking problems
[04:31] <Michael147> andylockran, i did sudo apt-get install shorewall and its installed. But there is no icon inside my applications menu, how come?
[04:31] <Klekkus> how does you change the language from german to english, i olny have controll over the computer by ssh
[04:32] <daan> Klekkus: maybe i have it
[04:32] <genii> k-os: Other option which sometimes unstick installer are noacpi
[04:32] <Tehk> Anyone have a link to Mark Shuttleworth's keynote at akademy?
[04:32] <daan> Klekkus: change the /etc/environment file
[04:32] <Klekkus> tnx
[04:32] <k-os> genii i can try to boot with noacpi?
[04:32] <genii> k-os: Yes
[04:32] <daan> Klekkus: LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
[04:32] <dmdzine> I need help with my wg111 usb stick wireless setup
[04:33] <dmdzine> is there anyone who would be able to assist me?
[04:33] <k-os> genii, thanks
[04:33] <k-os> brb
[04:33] <OrionBerlin> Hello can anybody help me
[04:33] <daan> genii: is there a way to tunnel vnc over ssh?
[04:33] <dmdzine> does anybody know about wireless?
[04:33] <OrionBerlin> can somebody tell me how i can hide the Mount Devices (Harddisk) from my Desktop??
[04:34] <dmdzine> can anybody help me out?
[04:34] <daan> OrionBerlin: you need to look around in gconf-editor
[04:34] <imitation> !ask | dmdzine
[04:34] <ubotu> dmdzine: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:35] <genii> daan Probably but offhand I don't know how. Generally these days i use FreeNX
[04:35] <OrionBerlin> daan: i had a look in the gconf-editor but didnt found anything :-(
[04:35] <dmdzine> i have a wg111v2 netgear wireless usb toggle
[04:35] <dmdzine> I can't seem to get it to work
[04:35] <daan> OrionBerlin: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/hide-removable-drive-icons-from-your-ubuntu-desktop/
[04:36] <OrionBerlin> daan: thank you i take a look.
[04:36] <gordonjcp> dmdzine: google will point you in the direction of the NDISWrapper instructions
[04:36] <Klekkus> daan: TNX! it worked!
[04:36] <dmdzine> i was having trouble with the ndiswrapper
[04:36] <daan> Klekkus: super :)
[04:36] <OrionBerlin> daan: thanks it worked :)
[04:37] <daan> OrionBerlin: superb :)
[04:37] <PG_> no helpt i hated it
[04:37] <dmdzine> I followed the setup instructions on the ubuntu site but they were confusing and must be outdated
[04:37] <PG_> no helpt i hate this shit
[04:37] <Karen> Hi everyone.  I'm having a problem installing Ubuntu 7.04.  It locks up right around the point where you pick the language for the install, and it's slow as molasses even before then.  Some background info: The computer I'm installing on currently has FreeBSD on it, I ran an md5checksum of the download, it's i386 and should be... Any thoughts?
[04:38] <dmdzine> im rather new to linux, so if anyone could help me figure out what to do with my little device, it would be much appreciated
[04:38] <daan> Karen: is there something strange in the dmesg ?
[04:38] <Buzzards> I am considering handing my laptop down to a friend of mine in the computer science department who wants to use it in his network. I had been running Xubuntu on it. I reinstalled Xubuntu in order format the drive.
[04:38] <Buzzards> I need to know if it is possible for my data to be recovered despite my attempts to format?
[04:38] <stefg> Karen: some hardware specs?
[04:38] <SeveredCross> Buzzards: Technically, yes.
[04:39] <Karen> PC.  256 Ram.
[04:39] <SeveredCross> You'd want to use a boot disk that could really nuke things.
[04:39] <doojin> hi
[04:39] <doojin> I'm on ubuntu
[04:39] <dmdzine> buzzards: formatting the hard drive won't get rid of the info
[04:39] <gordonjcp> dmdzine: sorry, I don't actually use ndiswrapper, I just now that it exists
[04:39] <doojin> how can I use a wireless lan?
[04:39] <Karen> Old-ish, but has run okay on windows recently.
[04:39] <jnewman> hi, having some problems getting my screen resolution up to a decent level.
[04:39] <SeveredCross> There's a standard Linux command too I think.
[04:39] <doojin> I plugged it in, but it doesn't work
[04:39] <gordonjcp> dmdzine: I'm one of those really annoying people that only ever has fully supported hardware
[04:39] <jnewman> i am stuck at 1024x768
[04:39] <dmdzine> you need to use a drive wiper...
[04:39] <SeveredCross> Buzzards: shred
[04:39] <Karen> What's dmesg?
[04:39] <Klekkus> daan: nah it did'nt :( it's one more line "LANGUAGE="de_DE:de:en_GB:en""
[04:39] <dmdzine> good for you gordonjcp
[04:39] <Buzzards> SeveredCross, dmdzine: if i install windows... and then install xubuntu on top of it..
[04:39] <doojin> Ubuntu recognizes the wireless lan, but the lan doesn't work, why not?
[04:39] <Buzzards> SeveredCross, dmdzine: would that sufficiently 'mess things up'?
[04:39] <dmdzine> buzzards: it's probably still possible to access the data
[04:39] <CarinArr> doojin: can you !pastebin the output of iwconfig
[04:40] <SeveredCross> Yes, but that's a bloody waste of time.
[04:40] <SeveredCross> Just use shred from the LiveCD.
[04:40] <SeveredCross> Or
[04:40] <Buzzards> SeveredCross: that wouldn't be accessible from the ISO disc would it ><?
[04:40] <k31th> I need to completely remove all my linux partitions plus sw raid devices wats the best option the ubuntu installer wont do it, it just bitches about not being able to delete the device as its in use.
[04:40] <daan> Klekkus: what if you also add LANG
[04:40] <SeveredCross> dd if=/dev/null of=/dev/sda
[04:40] <stefg> Karen: 256 MB is the bare minimum for the desktop install. if you managed to install *BSD, an alternate install of ubuntu won't frighten you. You're just running out of memery afaics
[04:40] <SeveredCross> Buzzards: Sure, why not. It's part of the standard system.
[04:40] <dmdzine> all the data beyond the 5 or so gigs of the windows install would be all that would be erased
[04:40] <SeveredCross> The dd above would work too.
[04:41] <Klekkus> daan: i've also added "LANG=.................."
[04:41] <SeveredCross> For even better erasure, use /dev/urandom rather than /dev/null
[04:41] <jnewman> i have gone to system>administration>restricted devices and enabled the ATI driver there but i am only getting a max 1024x768 in screen reolution. can anyone help
[04:41] <daan> Klekkus: I mean LANGUAGE
[04:41] <SeveredCross> /dev/urandom would overwrite every byte on the disk with random bullshit.
[04:41] <Buzzards> SeveredCross: i'll look into that. sincerest thanks for getting me started
[04:41] <dmdzine> buzzard: or use some other freeware hard drive wiper
[04:41] <SeveredCross> After which a format would work as desired.
[04:41] <dmdzine> yes
[04:41] <daan> Klekkus: LANGUAGE="en_US.en"
[04:41] <Karen> stefg: That sounds plausible.  The alternate install is easier on memory?
[04:41] <ZeZu> jnewman, if the driver is working, perhaps you need to change your monitor settings to allow a higher res.
[04:42] <stefg> !alternate | Karen
[04:42] <ubotu> Karen: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[04:42] <dmdzine> can anyone help me set up my wireless wg111v2
[04:42] <Klekkus> daan: so you are sugesting... Ahh, got it. i''l try
[04:42] <ZeZu> jnewman, these settings are in /etc/X11/xorg.conf normally
[04:42] <jnewman> ZeZu: how do i go about that???  forgive me i am bran new to linux. just learning the ropes
[04:42] <daan> Klekkus: put both in there
[04:43] <Klekkus> LANGUAGE="de_DE:de:en_GB:en"
[04:43] <Klekkus> LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
[04:43] <netyire> jnewman:  try editing your xorg.conf file
[04:43] <ZeZu> jnewman, you can go an open it in a text editor from places menu, i'd suggest reading a bit about xorg.conf first
[04:43] <netyire> its located at /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:43] <netyire> type gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:43] <atomiku> I've got a strange samba problem, My linux box can not resolve the NetBIOS name of my windows computer, and my windows computer can not resolve the NetBIOS name of my linux box, nor can it access it's share. samba is definitely running. Any ideas?
[04:43] <SeveredCross> Or you can do dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xorg-xserver
[04:43] <ZeZu> the sections are fairly obvious, but you'll need to edit it as root (use sudo or smth)
[04:43] <netyire> scroll down to till you see resolutions
[04:43] <netyire> enter the one you want, copy the above, paste and edit it
[04:43] <netyire> then restart x
[04:43] <Tha-Fox> is there anyone with acer laptop?
[04:44] <netyire> ctl+alt+backspace
[04:44] <ZeZu> or as netyire suggests, use gedit
[04:44] <netyire> thanks :D
[04:44] <netyire> *wanders off*
[04:44] <stefg> Karen: and consider xubuntu. ubuntu (gnome) will run, but xubuntu (xfce) will be much more fun to work with on that hardware
[04:45] <dmdzine> yes xubuntu is WICKED fast
[04:45] <dmdzine> fun fun fun!
[04:45] <jvai> hey ppl gm, any1 with ubuntu on a z60m thinkpad? my sound is sooo low, & only controlable from the hardware not the software
[04:45] <alesan> dmdzine, thank you, I'll have to install that on my old pc
[04:45] <doojin> hi
[04:45] <doojin> hmm?
[04:46] <Karen> What's the diff btwn ubuntu & xubuntu?
[04:46] <dmdzine> yes i just installed it on an old dell
[04:46] <ZeZu> jvai, you've tried alsamixer?
[04:46] <stefg> !xubuntu | karen
[04:46] <ubotu> karen: xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels
[04:46] <jvai> yes zeze it's on alsa now
[04:46] <Michael147> dmdzine, i didnt notice any differance in speed when switching from windows to linux.
[04:46] <alesan> hey people I'd need an advice. how can I disable the "suspend" and/or "hibernate" functions in the shutdown menu'? I have a system that will crash with those options and I do not want the users to be able to select them
[04:46] <jvai> zeze it says "hda/alsa
[04:47] <dmdzine> the dell (128mb RAM , 933mhz PentiumIII) with xubuntu.... runs faster than my new computer (512mb Ram, Athlon XP 3000+) that is running xp
[04:47] <Karen> So essentially, it's just a difference of the GUI?
[04:47] <dmdzine> The key is to use xubuntu, not ubuntu or kubuntu.
[04:47] <Karen> because the interface requires less memory?
[04:47] <dmdzine> karen: xubuntu looks much like ubuntu, just stripped down
[04:47] <stefg> Karen: yes.
[04:47] <Karen> cool
[04:47] <jvai> <-- on dapper, but wondering if newer versions would fix the sound issue
[04:47] <Michael147> dmdzine, xubuntu?
[04:47] <Michael147> Fill me in.
[04:48] <dmdzine> michael147: huh
[04:48] <Karen> Thanks for all the help.  I think I've got some good ideas to give a try.
[04:48] <dr_willis> xubuntu = ubuntu-gnome+XFCE
[04:48] <Lorne_Kun> is there a way to just instal xfce?
[04:48] <dr_willis> MyPersonalUbuntu=Ubuntu+XFCE+KDE+WindowMaker+..... ya get the idea.. :)
[04:48] <dr_willis> !info xfce
[04:48] <ubotu> Package xfce does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[04:48] <dmdzine> xubuntu is a stripped down version of ubuntu using xfce, not gnome, as dr_willis pointed out. It runs very fast, even on older computers
[04:48] <dr_willis> !find xfce
[04:49] <ubotu> Found: gtk2-engines-xfce, libxfce4mcs-client3, libxfce4mcs-dev, libxfce4mcs-manager3, libxfce4util-dev (and 51 others)
[04:49] <stefg> !xubuntu
[04:49] <ubotu> xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels
[04:49] <dfgas> i want a ftp server that has a gui for adding users or something along that line that is easy to setup and setting where they can do downloads
[04:49] <dfgas> any ideaS?
[04:49] <dr_willis> the xubuntu-desktop will install the xuubuntu desktop.. amazing enough. :)
[04:49] <jvai> what's going to replace dapper '09?
[04:49] <dmdzine> if you have less than 196mb of ram, use the xubuntu alternate install disk
[04:49] <dr_willis> xfce does use parts of gnome I do belive...

[04:50] <dmdzine> it uses a text interface, because it takes at least 196 mb of Ram to run the live CD, but only 128 to run it from hard drive
[04:50] <Rhynri> how do you add HFS+ support to gparted?

[04:50] <stefg> Ditiris: what are you tryinf to do? install nvidia-drivers?
[04:51] <Pirate_Hunter> hi im back
[04:51] <Rhynri> koen - two of the same question is more powerful than one
[04:51] <Ditiris> stefg: I'm trying to boot into Ubuntu for the first time after an alternate install.
[04:51] <dmdzine> can anyone help me with my netgear wireless usb device? i am having trouble getting it to work
[04:51] <stefg> Ditiris: so define 'modprobe doesn't work' ?
[04:51] <koen> i say, how do you add hfs+ support to (g)parted
[04:51] <dmdzine> i read the articles on the ubuntu site, but they were confusing and didn't work
[04:52] <jvai> what's going to replace dapper in '09?
[04:52] <guardian> hi
[04:52] <Rhynri> hi

[04:53] <Hobbsee> WHAT???
[04:53] <ZeZu> teh flood
[04:53] <Scunizi> guardian, what do you mean absolute vs. relative mode... how the pointer works on the screen?
[04:53] <Hobbsee> he gets kickbanned in one channel, so he pastes it in another????
[04:53] <guardian> Scunizi: indeed
[04:53] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> Hobbsee: someone shouldve told him to use pastebin from the beginign
[04:53] <Rhynri> yikes
[04:53] <newuser00> using apt get to install xubuntu on ubuntu is the same thing as downloading xubuntu and installing it?
[04:53] <Rhynri> probably did Pr8t-Hunt3r
[04:54] <mrsno> newuser00 yes
[04:54] <Rhynri> and he ignored them
[04:54] <stefg> Hobbsee: i thought Ditiris is going to flood us his whole dmesg.... but i think you can unban him again
[04:54] <dmdzine> pr8: what are the specs for your older comp
[04:54] <koen> hi, i also run vista, and i need to know with which locale it has mounted a ntfs partition. How can i see that?
[04:54] <ZeZu> Hobbsee, prob has mirc and just keeps pasting into new window after one closed
[04:54] <mrsno> newuser00 the package is called xubuntu-desktop
[04:54] <Scunizi> guardian, which program are you trying to use it in.
[04:54] <Hobbsee> yeah...maybe...
[04:54] <Hobbsee> call the ops again if he starts up again
[04:54] <dmdzine> Pr8t-Hunt3r: what are the specs on your older machine
[04:54] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> Rhynri: you might be right all i cna see is Ditris stop and nothing else but np
[04:54] <Rhynri> :D
[04:54] <guardian> Scunizi: i'm coding handwriting recognition :) i need absolute coordinates, like top left of screen == top left of the tablet area
[04:54] <newuser00> mrsno: thank you, and can i alternate between GNOME/Xfse
[04:55] <newuser00> Xfce*
[04:55] <Rhynri> i'm gonna go dig for hfs+ support for gparted
[04:55] <mrsno> newuser00 yes, at login time click > session > and you can choose which to load
[04:55] <dmdzine> Pr8t-Hunt3r: what are the specs on your older machine
[04:55] <checkergrrl> morning jrib

[04:55] <newuser00> mrsno:thanx a lot =)
[04:55] <mrsno> np :)
[04:55] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> dmdzine: 224 ram made by sis also, default hadware, 3.20Ghz processor, apprently the hardware is 64x but it is installed with XP 32x
[04:56] <dmdzine> Pr8t-Hunt3r: hold on one sec
[04:56] <Scunizi> guardian, ambitious!  there are threads about setting up the wacom as an actual tablet instead of the typical default HID device.  Some of those threads might guide you.  Let me look for a link. brb
[04:56] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> dmdzine: kk
[04:56] <koen> Rhynri, it will be tough, good luck though. I did it once before with no succes. But again, good luck! let me know
[04:57] <dmdzine> Pr8t-Hunt3r: you should use Xubuntu
[04:57] <dmdzine> there are both 32 and 64 bit versions
[04:57] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> dmdzine: np will look into that does Feisty support voice recognition?
[04:57] <dmdzine> It is blazingly fast
[04:57] <dmdzine> i don't know
[04:57] <Scunizi> guardian, http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-HOWTO/Wacom-Tablet-HOWTO.html#ss5.16  & http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-HOWTO/Wacom-Tablet-HOWTO.html might help out..
[04:58] <guardian> thx
[04:58] <guardian> gonna try
[04:58] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> does Feisty support voice recognition?
[04:58] <dmdzine> http://xubuntu.com
[04:58] <Scunizi> guardian, good luck....
[04:58] <Frogzoo> dmdzine: will I miss gnome features with xubuntu ?
[04:58] <guardian> Scunizi: thx :)
[04:58] <Ditiris> okay, well, sorry about the large text...
[04:59] <dmdzine> frogzoo: not necessarily
[04:59] <Frogzoo> hmm maybe worth a look then
[04:59] <Ditiris> stefg: Here's the console output: http://paste.uni.cc/16642
[04:59] <dmdzine> i believe you can run gnome features and KDE features in it, even though it uses xfce
[04:59] <jnewman> zezu: OK now confused. i am looking in the xorg.conf file and i have several resolutions listed one is 1680x1050 however this is not listed in screen resolution?/
[04:59] <stefg> Ditiris: k, let me see
[04:59] <ZeZu> jnewman, what section?
[05:00] <dmdzine> frogzoo: from the xubuntu site "If you wish, you can install any KDE or GNOME application on your Xubuntu desktop system, as it shares the Ubuntu main and universe package selection."
[05:00] <ZeZu> jnewman, you can also try ctrl + alt + [Numpad +] 
[05:00] <jnewman> zezu: subsection "display"
[05:00] <jvai> the medibuntu server is out
[05:01] <stefg> Ditiris: this looks either like a kernel issue, or faulty ram (or libc being on a faulty harddrive sector). Can you rule out hardware problems?
[05:02] <blithen> I am trying to run a .run file, anyway to do that in the terminal?
[05:02] <dr_willis> blithen,  what run file?  chmod +x whatever.run && ./whatever.run
[05:02] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> jnewman: look for the defaul section display it is mostly 24 and add the resolution you want and restart and log out and control+alt+back space
[05:02] <Ditiris> stefg: Yes I can rule out hardware errors.  Passes all memory tests and I've been using the system to run Vista of all things with no problems.
[05:02] <checkergrrl> whats is the best way of learning to write bash scripts ?
[05:02] <blithen> It's a punkbust updater
[05:03] <neverblue> checkergrrl, there are a few tutorials
[05:03] <dr_willis> checkergrrl,  read read read read...  :) and then dive in.
[05:03] <Pici> checkergrrl: http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/
[05:03] <Frogzoo> checkergrrl: d/l a few bash scripts & read them
[05:03] <neverblue> i used one written by Larry Wall
[05:03] <dr_willis> checkergrrl,  'advanced bash scripting guide'
[05:03] <softnoise> hello anybody there i'm a beginner and need some help installing ubuntu onto a Dell Inspiron1200
[05:03] <neverblue> from Perl fame...
[05:03] <stefg> Ditiris: so this happens at every reboot?
[05:03] <dr_willis> checkergrrl,  is a must read/bookmark/read a few weeks later.. then a few mo later.. :) guide.
[05:03] <checkergrrl> wowoow...thank you guys!
[05:03] <neverblue> np
[05:04] <checkergrrl> i got a test soon for LPI101
[05:04] <checkergrrl> i want to get ready for it
[05:04] <Ditiris> stefg: Yes, the system has never succesfully booted Ubuntu.  It either gives me that error message or does a hard reboot.
[05:04] <neverblue> learning regex might be good as well
[05:04] <neverblue> oh, test
[05:04] <TechSalvager> checkergrrl, whats that?
[05:04] <TechSalvager> LPI101?
[05:05] <neverblue> learning programming for interfaces?
[05:05] <softnoise> can some help see if i can test to see if i have enough main memory on my Dell Inspiron1200
[05:05] <neverblue> hehe
[05:05] <jnewman> ZeZu: i have tried ctrl + Alt + [Numpad +]  - this does change the resolution but not above 1024x768
[05:05] <stefg> Ditiris: so it's likely the kernel or some driver doesn't like your hardware. there are several boot options to try out
[05:05] <dr_willis> softnoise,  how much memory does the bios post screen show?
[05:05] <stefg> !boot | Ditiris
[05:05] <ubotu> Ditiris: 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
[05:05] <checkergrrl> LPI 101 its an exam i have to take
[05:05] <softnoise> let me chk
[05:05] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> jnewman: look for the defaul section display it is mostly 24 and add the resolution you want and restart and log out and control+alt+back space
[05:05] <tck-afk> checkergrrl, join #lpi will you?
[05:06] <checkergrrl> TechSalvager
[05:06] <ZeZu> jnewman, might have to ask someone else then, i've had similar issues in ubuntu before myself
[05:06] <genii> Ditiris: I suspect some memory addressing error. You can specify at kernel option the exact ram. eg: mem=<exact number bios reports as ram>
[05:06] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> jnewman: unlkess u want to reconfigure xorg
[05:06] <ZeZu> I think installing nvidia drivers fixed for me then
[05:06] <tck-afk> checkergrrl, shit don't thats an official chan haha, join #lpi-chat
[05:06] <TechSalvager> for what subject?
[05:06] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> !language
[05:06] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[05:06] <softnoise> it says 256 MB on dell i12000
[05:07] <softnoise> is that enough memory of fiesty fawn?
[05:07] <annimar> hi
[05:07] <softnoise> hi
[05:08] <annimar> can anyone help me getting rid of an restricted nvidia driver
[05:08] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> softnoise: you cna install it but its not enough 512 to a 1gig would be better
[05:08] <annimar> I know, I know, no support
[05:08] <annimar> :)
[05:08] <annimar> I thought I'd give the restricted nvidia driver a try in feisty
[05:08] <annimar> but it didn't work
[05:08] <zabin> Hello
[05:08] <annimar> All I have now is a black screen
[05:08] <genii> softnoise: Yes. i'm running Feisty on 128Mb p2 400
[05:08] <jnewman> zezu: ok thanks
[05:09] <zabin> Can someone help me in mounting a drive?
[05:09] <dhuid> hey
[05:09] <annimar> can I unistall the driver in the terminal somehow?
[05:09] <neverblue> zabin man mount
[05:09] <dhuid> I cannot listen to my collection with feisty
[05:09] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> zabin: if you dont get a response the first time ask the question again
[05:09] <dhuid> does it read mp3?
[05:09] <zabin> neverble: i know
[05:09] <dhuid> rhythmbox
[05:09] <mundungus> hellloo! i jus checked my ppp0 file in chatscripts folder, i wanted to ask, how can i add my number to the script 'ATDT*99#'?
[05:09] <neverblue> zabin, maybe you might want to be a bit more specific
[05:09] <softnoise> so what do i do now i got the Dvd from the Linux Mag?
[05:09] <zabin> i did sudo mount /dev/hda  /media/windows/ -t ntfs -o nls=utf8,umask=0222
[05:09] <zabin> but that didnt work
[05:10] <neverblue> zabin, asking just a general question doesnt help you, nor the person assisting
[05:10] <dr_willis> softnoise,  thatss a bit low on the ram end..  xubuntu may work better for you then ubuntu/kubuntu.
[05:10] <neverblue> its ntfs
[05:10] <dr_willis> softnoise,  but it should work  (will be a bit slow)
[05:10] <neverblue> what happens when you run that mount?
[05:10] <mundungus> hellloo! i jus checked my ppp0 file in chatscripts folder, i wanted to ask, how can i add my number to the script 'ATDT*99#'?
[05:10] <zabin> im running a live cd and i need to recovery a file off my windows hard drive. in Gparted the hard drive shows up and is listed as /dev/hda2 but im trying to mount it
[05:10] <genii> mundungus: Just put 2 commas then the phone number
[05:11] <mundungus> anyone listening?
[05:11] <stefg> !dialup | mundungus
[05:11] <ubotu> mundungus: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[05:11] <Klekkus> can anybody tel me how to change the language from german to english? I'm using ssh.
[05:11] <rdz> hi all. is there some way to convert 'canon raw files' into jpg under ubuntu?
[05:11] <Tehk> Is there a way to install kubuntu on another harddrive without messing up my grub of my current ubntu install?
[05:11] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> dr_willis: amazingly I have stated that already but I guess 3 ppl saying the samething is better than one
[05:11] <softnoise> ok i am going to bootup with the DVD and i tell you the
[05:11] <softnoise> GMONE gui daemon error screen in a minute....
[05:11] <dr_willis> Pr8t-Hunt3r,  my wife never listens to me either.
[05:11] <genii> mundungus: You need to edit the file with sudo privelege btw
[05:11] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> mundungus: if you dont get a respnse aks your quetsion again
[05:12] <Rhynri> so, anyone know how to add hfs+ capability to gparted?
[05:12] <neverblue> Rhynri, i think there is a gparted channel, isnt there?
[05:12] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> dr_willis: lol well she has an excuse theer and she wears the trousers figuratively speaking :-)
[05:12] <macabro22> Hello
[05:12] <mundungus> stefg: it had syntax before i messed it up now it daent connect automatically wen i boot, i fink that i forgot somefing wen i was tryinh to return the file the way it was!
[05:13] <macabro22> I was wondering if anyone has democracytv working in Ubuntu?
[05:13] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> !question
[05:13] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:13] <dr_willis> Pr8t-Hunt3r,  but she listens to what everyone ELSE says.. just not me.
[05:13] <Rhynri> neverblue - perhaps, but I can easily do it on gentoo, so obviously the approach in ubuntu is different
[05:13] <softnoise> ive clickd on start & install and i see the Ubuntu logo with a bar going back and forth
[05:13] <mundungus> genii: true, i am in sudo mode,i want it to connect automatically like it used before, now i have to do a wvdial evrytime i boot!
[05:13] <dr_willis> 'gentoo is different' - I think we all can agree with that.
[05:13] <macabro22> I can't get audio playback on DemocracyPlayer. Sound works in every other app
[05:13] <Ditiris> stefg: Thanks, will try.
[05:14] <Ditiris> genii: Thanks, will try.
[05:14] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> dr_willis: u know the moto wife knows best and others are intune with he wife not you, compatibility reasons
[05:14] <genii> mundungus: putting the 2 commas will make it wait 2 seconds. Then just put in the ISP dialup number

[05:15] <softnoise> the install bar is moving side to side
[05:15] <genii> mundungus: Yes
[05:15] <mundungus> genii: i put the commas like this 'ATDT*99#,,<my phone number>'?

[05:15] <softnoise> now the ubuntu logo is gone
[05:15] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> macabro22: the message from obutu
[05:15] <Tha-Fox> should this command "echo "enabled: 1">/proc/acpi/acer/wireless" in terminal give me a next line where blinks ">" as a first character?
[05:15] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> !codecs
[05:15] <genii> mundungus: Altho the phone # is the number you dial to get your internet, not your home telephone number
[05:15] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> !codec
[05:16] <annimar> thanks. figured it out by myself
[05:16] <annimar> simply reconfigured xorg
[05:16] <softnoise> but the side to side bar is still swinging side 2 side...
[05:16] <macabro22>  Pr8t-Hunt3r but don't you think its wierd that only one player applet wont have audio?
[05:16] <softnoise> now its like a gas gage bar...from left 2 right
[05:16] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> annimar: im rpetty sure i told you or soemone else to reconfigure Xorg as last choice heck arent ppl listening today
[05:16] <newuser00> how can reactivate the "layers" window in gimp after i closed it? i closed it once accidentally and now i cant find it.
[05:16] <UberPsyX> hi guys, just installed my graphics card ( nvidia GeForce7600GT) and want to install the official drivers, which do i need?
[05:17] <neverblue> UberPsyX, fiesty?
[05:17] <softnoise> now the screen is total black....
[05:17] <UberPsyX> neverblue, yes
[05:18] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> macabro22: it depends if you upgraded OS i.e. dapper to Feisty than it might mean that the codecs/libraries werent properly updated which happened in my case and if you use auomatix than that will cuase problems... but than you havent explained much
[05:18] <neverblue> use the 'restricted drivers' under System->Admin
[05:18] <softnoise> now i've got with ghost background x in the middle of the screen
[05:18] <softnoise> now i've got the orange splash screen background..with a mouse pointer
[05:19] <UberPsyX> neverblue ok ill try it
[05:19] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> softnoise: pelase explain to em whats going on with your com caus ei los the plot
[05:19] <UberPsyX> neverblue, it says i have no hardware that need restricted drivers
[05:19] <softnoise> the disk lite and the dvd flash but the orange splash still is on
[05:20] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> softnoise: seriosuly thats not much of an explanation what are you trying to do or what has happened
[05:20] <Ditiris> So really basic question: I'm not doing anything wrong by using the 64-bit image on my Q6600, right?
[05:20] <neverblue> UberPsyX, look at your xorg.conf and see if its using the nvidia driver
[05:20] <llllllll> In firefox it keeps underlining misspelt words. Is the dictionary used in firefox or ubuntu? How do I change the dictionary used? I think it's American English at the moment because it keeps wanting me to remove vowels and replace S's with Z's.
[05:20] <softnoise> im installing to an 2G active partition that already has LINSPIRE onit
[05:20] <gordonjcp> llllllll: correct
[05:20] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> UberPsyX: you probably dont need restricted drivers... that could be what its trying to point out but than i dont knwo what youre doing
[05:20] <gordonjcp> llllllll: it's in firefox iirc
[05:21] <softnoise> the DVD came with a the LINUX MAG (UK publication)
[05:21] <jvai> how do i turn on the firefox spell checkr?
[05:21] <gordonjcp> llllllll: settings -> advanced -> languages
[05:21] <macabro22>  Pr8t-Hunt3r, I upgraded from Edgy and once I used automatix. So how can I pimpoint what's wrong in Democracyplayer?
[05:21] <llllllll> Thanks
[05:21] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> Ditiris: 64x is good but a lot of apps are incompatible with it but if you like puzzles than yeah keep it
[05:21] <gordonjcp> jvai: settings -> advanced -> Check my spelling as I type
[05:21] <neverblue> can I make a .csv from an excel sheet in the OO Spreadsheet app?
[05:21] <softnoise> nothing is on the orange splash except the mouse pointer
[05:21] <gordonjcp> neverblue: yes
[05:21] <neverblue> export?
[05:22] <neverblue> im just seeing pdf and shtml
[05:22] <softnoise> and the hd & dvd light are flashing
[05:22] <jvai> oo ok ty @ gordonjcp
[05:22] <neverblue> xhtml*
[05:22] <Ditiris> Pr8t-Hunt3r: I'm going to take that as your subtle suggestion that I should try the x86 image.
[05:22] <Scunizi> neverblue, export txt then rename to cvs usually works for me.
[05:22] <gdiebel> what command triggers an acpi suspend?
[05:22] <UberPsyX> neverblue, >_< sorry im new to ubuntu, how do i check xorg.conf in terminal?
[05:22] <softnoise> do i have to erase the linspire partition all together???
[05:22] <neverblue> UberPsyX, sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:23] <neverblue> then press page up/down, ctrl x to quit
[05:23] <neverblue> the commands for nano are at the bottom of the page
[05:23] <neverblue> ctrl + letter
[05:23] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> Ditiris: whatever rocks ur boat, sorry, its like there is nothing wrong using x64 if your harware supports it but youll have problems with apps and yeha i would advise sticking to 32x even in xp I use 32 times on 64x hardware
[05:24] <neverblue> gordonjcp, any response?
[05:24] <markgreene> Hey everyone. I want to record the audio that is coming our of my speakers to a file (I don't really care what format). For this scenerio I will be calling the voicemail on my cellphone and having it playback. I would like to capture the playback to a sound file for archiving. Any ideas on the best way to do this?
[05:24] <gordonjcp> neverblue: sorry, I'm working in another window and not really paying attention
[05:24] <neverblue> np
[05:24] <UberPsyX> neverblue, it mentions the name of my old GFX card (nv5m64) instead
[05:24] <gordonjcp> neverblue: should just be "save as"
[05:24] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> macabro22: yeah same prob as me, the problem with automatix before updgrading you must uninstall it and all its components to make transition easier otherwise youll notice a lot of mess ups, I had to do a clean install of Feisty but than i ahd major bugs, whats your problem
[05:24] <softnoise> ok now i've got a gray sq in the upper left corner
[05:25] <jvai> sound recorder @ markgreene
[05:25] <Scunizi> markgreene, I use gizmo with call out credit.  It has a built in recorder
[05:25] <neverblue> UberPsyX, you want to google 'ubuntu guide', look at the Edgy one, it will have a section on installing latest nvidia driver
[05:25] <UberPsyX> neverblue, would 'sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new' work?
[05:25] <Scunizi> markgreene, you could probably also use audacity.  Just tell it what to record from.
[05:25] <neverblue> thanks gordonjcp make me look like a noob:P
[05:26] <martyna> oooooo
[05:26] <softnoise> i did get some sound like african drum music then that quit...now i'm going to the gui daemon error message in a few minutes....
[05:26] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> softnoise: if i understand straight u got a CD from a mag and now you have installed soemhting that has messed ur comp is that right
[05:26] <softnoise> yes
[05:26] <macabro22> oh crap. I don't wanna do a Fresh Install. Everything else is so neat.
[05:26] <jvai> corrupted cd?
[05:27] <neverblue> UberPsyX, consult the guide I referred to
[05:27] <softnoise> it takes a little bit for the message to pop-up... now i got the ubuntu progress logo but the gray sq is still in the up left corner
[05:27] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> softnoise: ok now what has it damaged, sorry so many questions heer, and what exactly is happenign to the com?
[05:27] <UberPsyX> neverblue, ok

[05:32] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> macabro22: paste me, i ahvent asked you to paste anything?
[05:32] <macabro22>  Pr8t-Hunt3r: I am currently reading it.
[05:33] <macabro22>  Pr8t-Hunt3r: ok, I thought you wanted some extra info
[05:33] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> macabro22 :did you install democracy through automatix when on dapper?
[05:33] <UberPsyX> neverblue, there are a lot of references to a program called envy that finds out what card you have and sorts the rest out for you. is that ok?
[05:33] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> if thats the case have u tried a simple complete uninstall and install
[05:33] <rpelaez> hello
[05:33] <macabro22>  Pr8t-Hunt3r: I guess so. Can't quite recall
[05:33] <neverblue> Pici, the site isnt displaying what it should though
[05:34] <neverblue> UberPsyX, what URL are you looking at?
[05:34] <macabro22>  Pr8t-Hunt3r: Do you think uninstalling it and reinstalling  might solve the problem?
[05:34] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> macabro22: so do I try a complete unistall and install and you have updated automatix, cause the dapper version dont work on Feisty weirdly it dont update itself
[05:34] <dr_willis> uninstalling/reinstalling Rarely fixes things Under linux.. thats 'windows thinking'
[05:34] <dr_willis> :)
[05:34] <UberPsyX> neverblue, ubuntu guide

[05:35] <UberPsyX> neverblue, the edgy version
[05:35] <dr_willis> rogue780,  bird nest  in the Power supply?
[05:35] <sivik> is there a better program than ripperx to rip audio cds to my computer so i can put them on my mp3 player?
[05:35] <macabro22>  Pr8t-Hunt3r Ok.I will try reinstalling. Thanx.
[05:35] <checkergrrl> can someone help me with bash scripting examples i have?

[05:35] <Scunizi> rogue780, through the speakers? or from the box
[05:35] <dr_willis> checkergrrl,  you havent spent much time reading have ya. :)
[05:35] <rogue780> dr_willis, damn small bird to fit in me laptop
[05:35] <rogue780> Scunizi, from the speaker
[05:35] <checkergrrl> dr_willis
[05:35] <Scunizi> rogue780, are you using kde? or gnome
[05:35] <macabro22> huahauhaauh
[05:35] <dr_willis> rogue780,  Hummingbird. - I would guess you some how ran/got going a scheduler/alarm program goind.
[05:36] <checkergrrl> i got the script running
[05:36] <rogue780> Scunizi, gnome
[05:36] <checkergrrl> but the problem is: I dont know how to put them together
[05:36] <dr_willis> checkergrrl,  not sure what you mean.
[05:36] <checkergrrl> i can run each script sepertl
[05:36] <checkergrrl> ly
[05:36] <Scunizi> rogue780, check dr_willis 's post to you .. that's probably where the answer lies.
[05:36] <rogue780> Scunizi, dr_willis only thing I changed was I installed qcad...but I can't imagine that being the cause
[05:37] <jtmoulia> yo, I have a weird thing where keys bound to volume up and down bring up the volume level thing, and change it, but it doesn't actually change the volume. Any help would be sweet
[05:37] <martyna> Can somebody help me?
[05:37] <rogue780> I wish there was a way to see what proc accessed /dev/dsp last
[05:37] <checkergrrl> for example: i want to write a bash script ...when i can find all .txt files  copy them to a folder and later zip them with a relevant date
[05:37] <martyna> i'm sorry  how i can speak in people in poland
[05:37] <Scunizi> rogue780, does it happen when you do something specific like open or close a window, maybe click something that doesn't do anything at that time?  Almost sounds like systems sounds.
[05:37] <dr_willis> rogue780,   check what all is running. Ive not heard of any coocoo clock programs. :) unless its a clock option im unaware of.
[05:37] <sivik> checkergrrl, that shouldn't be that hard
[05:38] <checkergrrl> okay so i got: find -name *.txt -exec cp /home/backups
[05:38] <sivik> yeah
[05:38] <rogue780> Scunizi, it happens every half hour on the half hour...I'm guessing it's tied to the clock
[05:38] <sivik> and then make a cron job
[05:38] <dr_willis> checkergrrl,  you may want to start 'small' and build up your skills...
[05:39] <dr_willis> checkergrrl,  so you know how to copy them first.. if thats working right.. move to the next part. :)
[05:39] <checkergrrl> now for zip i got : gzip *.txt  echo {} mv "*.txt 'date'" \;
[05:39] <hende07> can someone help me with azerus i installed and when i go do the config with like the language all that it just closes
[05:39] <Scunizi> rogue780, sounds like you need to check cron jobs, clock settings etc.. should be listed in your processes list .. maybe :P
[05:39] <dr_willis> checkergrrl,  you will proberly need to 'cd' to the proper directry first
[05:39] <neverblue> hende07, there are two ways to install it, use the second, consult the 'ubuntu guide' for instructions
[05:40] <hende07> where is ubuntu guide at
[05:40] <softnoise> ok i've turned off my nic card and i'm re-installing

[05:42] <Scunizi> rpelaez, been trying that for a year
[05:42] <neverblue> rpelaez, be more specific ?
[05:42] <neverblue> have you found a driver that supports it?
[05:42] <CaptainM> jtmoulia: Try going to system - preferences - sound and changing the default mixer tracks to PCM. that did it for me.
[05:42] <Scunizi> rpelaez, there's threads about a 6xx driver but I never got it to work on the 800 series printers.. Ended up buying a cheap samsung lazer printer.  Works great
[05:43] <person51090> hey--i was trying to install ubuntu, and the installer totally hung after the first prompt
[05:43] <person51090> any ideas?
[05:43] <tom> hi, im trying to cross compile a program for windows that uses sdl, how do i link my program against the sdl library using i586-mingw32msvc-gcc
[05:43] <macabro22>  Pr8t-Hunt3r: should I reinstall via the updated automatix or from the deb file from the democracy player website?
[05:44] <jvai> ty captain
[05:44] <Scunizi> rpelaez, I looked at http://www.openprinting.org/printer_list.cgi?make=Lexmark and it shows the 810 series as a paperweight.
[05:44] <Pr8t-Hunt3r> through the .deb file but make sure or previous version are unnninstalled, automatix is good but not advisable as you cna see why always gt the .deb or source last option automatix
[05:45] <rpelaez> neverblue, i try to install that printer by the utility provide in ubuntu but it didn't apear
[05:45] <macabro22>  Pr8t-Hunt3r alright, thnx for the help
[05:45] <neverblue> rpelaez, which means you need to look online for a 'working' driver for it
[05:45] <hende07> ok i dl it the way it said i open it and you know when the first time you open it you gotta set the language and stuff it just closes or crashes or something
[05:46] <checkergrrl> sivic: i am getting an error on -exec
[05:46] <checkergrrl> on my script
[05:47] <hende07> neverblue  i dl it the way it says then the first time i openit when you should set like the language and everything it crashes

[05:47] <person51090> i tried to use ls to find a useful file to run the install program
[05:48] <person51090> but i had no idea where to look
[05:48] <pike_> zabin: locate .qtw or find / -name *.qtw    find is an acual search while locate searchs the latest database it created
[05:48] <hende07> neverblue

[05:49] <Spork> lol Scunizi
[05:49] <zabin> Scunizi: i want to search /media/windows for it but it doesnt seem to be searching that..
[05:49] <hende07> ????
[05:49] <hende07> ?
[05:49] <schecky4> does anyone here run Xubuntu?
[05:49] <pike_> zabin: change find / to find /media/windows
[05:49] <Spork> okay, my problem is that i am trying to use CUDA but i am getting a message that says "error: GL/glu.h: No such file or directory"  I already installed mesa-common-dev though
[05:50] <Scunizi> zabin, so you want to search a specific drive?  is it called windows? or are you trying to access a windows partition.?
[05:50] <zabin> pike_: Can i do it with locate or no?
[05:50] <Spork> i am under the impression that i need to install libglutdev
[05:50] <zabin> yes
[05:50] <Spork> but i have no idea where to get that
[05:50] <zabin> i have it mounted /media/windows
[05:50] <pike_> zabin: yes if you sudo locate -u or sudo updatedb first to build new database
[05:51] <mzanfardino> can one use both RAID and LVM?
[05:51] <zabin> pike_: after i do locate -u it will search that driver too?
[05:51] <Spork> Scunizi: any idea?
[05:51] <mzanfardino> I have a server with three drives I'd like to set up with RAID 5 and I'd also like to configure it with LVM for ease of maintenance... is that possible?
[05:51] <zabin> pike_: it still isnt searching /media/windows/
[05:52] <Scunizi> Spork, have you searched synaptic for libglu...?
[05:52] <zabin> its not letting me search /media/windows any idea why?
[05:52] <isabug> gstreamerrealmedia
[05:52] <Spork> i just found out how to do that :3
[05:53] <Scunizi> Spork, was it in there?
[05:53] <pike_> zabin: just do sudo find /media/windows -name *.qtw

[05:54] <ramy__> how i can reduce the CPU usage of system monitor ?
[05:54] <Scunizi> Spork, np,  knowledge is built on one fact at a time...
[05:55] <isabug> thanks ubotu
[05:55] <Hendrik_l> i seem to have problem with gtk themes in ubuntu with fluxbox
[05:55] <NielsE> ramy__ you could try to let it refresh less often
[05:55] <Hendrik_l> all buttons are square not rounded
[05:55] <Scunizi> Lattyware, you might have to turn off the repo that is associated with the cd before it looks elsewhere.
[05:55] <Spork> i know
[05:55] <macabro22> It WORKED!
[05:55] <macabro22> Sweet!
[05:55] <Lattyware> Scunizi: Yeah, I asked him to do that, and it had no effect.
[05:55] <Spork> and now i have more fun problems:  I don't know if linux hates me or if i hate linux
[05:56] <Scunizi> Lattyware, since it's ubuntustudio, maybe it doesn't have all the ubuntu repos listed in sources.lst?
[05:56] <threethirty> hello
[05:56] <Scunizi> Spork, what now? :)
[05:57] <ramy__> how i can reduce the CPU usage of system monitor ?
[05:57] <Lattyware> Scunizi: Again, I thought that, but they are all there.
[05:57] <jamesu> To the moderator(S) thanks for being there to help. Ill join in tomorrow or so since it's midnight in my home now.
[05:57] <Lattyware> Scunizi: It's pretty odd.
[05:57] <Scunizi> Lattyware, I'm stumped :(
[05:57] <threethirty> is there anyone with beryl expertise on?
[05:57] <Kesara> What is the easiest mail server (configuration wise)?
[05:57] <Lattyware> Well, not exactly expertise, but I have dealt with it.
[05:57] <Lattyware> Go ahead
[05:57] <Lattyware> Scunizi: Ah, got it.
[05:58] <Frogzoo> Kesara: postfix probly
[05:58] <NielsE> ramy__: edit prefrences so it refreshes less often
[05:58] <Lattyware> He was putting the # before the lines, as in, on the line above :/
[05:58] <threethirty> i dist upgraded from dapper to edgy and edgy to feisty in on enight and decided to install bery
[05:58] <Kesara> Frogzoo: i tried configuration is bit hard. Is their a good guide?
[05:58] <Lattyware> I should have guessed. He's the guy that tried to fix a graphics card by running a magnet over it (why he has a new one)
[05:58] <Kesara> Frogzoo: I couldn't find anything simple. :-(
[05:59] <threethirty> when I run any of the 3d desktops i loose the window borders, and im not sure what didn't get upgraded
[06:01] <tompeach> Hi all, I have rm -r about 1TB of data on an xfs file system. I ctrl-c 'd after about 10 seconds, then umounted the filesystem. Is this recoverable?
[06:01] <EchoBinary> :-o
[06:01] <EchoBinary> oh dear
[06:01] <daan> tompeach: Don't think so
[06:01] <EchoBinary> its not really gone, though...  right?
[06:01] <EchoBinary> just out of the allocation table?
[06:01] <tompeach> it must be
[06:01] <daan> tompeach: xfs is really hard to recover files
[06:01] <dr_willis> hmm.. not sure on xfs..  That maybe the tricky part.
[06:01] <threethirty> tompeach: there are tools in synaptic that you can try, my brother formatted over a project and was able to recover it
[06:01] <tompeach> (out of table)
[06:01] <SeveredCross> XFS is journaling...Can't you un-replay the journal?
[06:01] <SeveredCross> Or do something with the goddamn journal.
[06:01] <dr_willis> un-replay :)
[06:01] <person51090> when I try to install ubuntu, I get the error message: "/bin/sh can't access tty; job control turned off"
[06:01] <person51090> why am I getting this?
[06:02] <rustalot> how do I change the resolution of the console ( the one that you get with Ctrl+Alt+F[1-6] )?
[06:02] <tompeach> or maybe just hit the whisky
[06:02] <EchoBinary> LOL
[06:02] <dr_willis> rustalot,  fbset command perhaps.
[06:02] <EchoBinary> i just ordered 5 Hitachi 1TB deskstars
[06:02] <EchoBinary> :-D
[06:02] <EchoBinary> MuHaaHaaHaaHaaHaa
[06:02] <tompeach> the missus gets home soon, and her "desperate housewives" was on there. I'm looking at the sofa and thinging it don't look that confortable
[06:03] <Lattyware> EchoBinary: Woah. I have 1.5TB of drives.
[06:03] <Lattyware> EchoBinary: That rocks though. Fileserver?
[06:03] <tompeach> EchoBinary : remove the "r" and the "m" keys from your keyboard now
[06:03] <rustalot> lol
[06:03] <borgista> Hello, I tried uninstalling hdparm and it uninstalled ubuntu-desktop. Now that I re-installed ubuntu-desktop meta-package I cannot access sudo.
[06:03] <threethirty> tompeach, id try to get it from bittourrent the couch jail is better than sleeping on the couch
[06:04] <borgista> And ideas?
[06:04] <rustalot> it would be awesome if you could get zfs for that
[06:04] <Lattyware> Nah, you want to raid1 those buggers.
[06:04] <Lattyware> I mean, it'd go down in days.
[06:04] <Lattyware> But the speed
[06:04] <Lattyware> :P
[06:04] <tompeach> raid is only as good as the operator
[06:04] <tompeach> (trust me)
[06:05] <tompeach> what do you think guys? am i screwed?
[06:05] <person51090> Question: I intend to install ubuntu onto a slave drive. For the install, do I need to switch the pins?
[06:05] <NigelS> tompeach: there are tools out there that purport to be able to recover data from XFS
[06:05] <rustalot> doesn't zfs do that?
[06:05] <threethirty> tompeach: im looking in synaptic now
[06:06] <zzuh> person51090, no you don't
[06:06] <person51090> well i'm getting an error message
[06:06] <person51090> when I try to install ubuntu, I get the error message: "/bin/sh can't access tty; job control turned off"
[06:06] <person51090> after the first prompt
[06:06] <tompeach> thanks guys, i couldn't find anything
[06:06] <person51090> should I try a different cd from the graphical install?
[06:06] <hende07> can someone help me with azureus
[06:06] <kismet> person51090, unless X isn't loading via live cd you don't need to
[06:06] <PG> jes
[06:06] <kismet> hende07, whats up
[06:06] <EchoBinary> Lattyware: i have 1.5 TB now, its full up
[06:07] <rustalot> dr_willis:when I do 'fbset -xres 1280 -yres 1024 it gives me /dev/fb0 : device not found
[06:07] <EchoBinary> im planning to make a zfs raid-z out of it
[06:07] <Lattyware> EchoBinary: Heh. Yeah, I remember when I thought my 80GB drive was massive.
[06:07] <borgista> Any advice on getting sudo permission back?
[06:07] <NigelS> tompeach: I'm not sure they're telling the truth though :)
[06:07] <person51090> X is not loading
[06:07] <Lattyware> EchoBinary: My current system: http://www.lattyware.co.uk/OtherFiles/PC/
[06:07] <person51090> I get to a black screen and an error message
[06:07] <hende07> i install it and when i launch it for the first time when your supposed to select language and eveything it just disappears kismet
[06:07] <kismet> person51090, then try the alternate cd
[06:07] <person51090> ok
[06:07] <person51090> any idea why i may be getting that message?
[06:07] <kismet> hende07, you have the correct JRE installed?
[06:07] <person51090> "/bin/sh can't access tty; job control turned off"
[06:07] <EchoBinary> nice
[06:07] <threethirty> tompeach: check this out http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28813/
[06:07] <PG> ah i have tis problem too
[06:08] <hende07> how do i check???
[06:08] <person51090> could it be because all my partitions on my master drive are NTFS?
[06:08] <kismet> person51090, it happens when X doesn't initialise your drivers
[06:08] <EchoBinary> i have a 42U rack by my desk..  lol
[06:08] <PG> did you have java
[06:08] <zaggynl> Anyone knows a linux alternative for Sisoft Sandra?
[06:08] <person51090> oh ok, thanks. so the alternate should help?
[06:08] <kismet> person51090, no live cd is loaded virtually
[06:08] <EchoBinary> ive been looking for somewhere else to put it
[06:08] <EchoBinary> its loud and hot
[06:08] <person51090> alright. that's a big help
[06:08] <kismet> person51090, yup
[06:08] <hende07> kismet how would i figure that out
[06:08] <person51090> where can i get the iso?
[06:08] <Hirvinen> zaggynl: What exactly do you want to do?
[06:08] <kismet> hende07, just a sec
[06:08] <zaggynl> Hirvinen, generate a datasheet of my system specs
[06:08] <kismet> person51090, i'll grab you a link a moment
[06:09] <PG> i have a another problem how do i start looking glass
[06:09] <rico> hi
[06:09] <person51090> ok. and is that for 7.04 or for 6.06?
[06:09] <tompeach> threethirty : checking
[06:09] <kismet> person51090, 7.04, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download (put a check on Check here if you need the alternate desktop CD. This CD does not include the Live CD, instead it uses a text-based installer.)
[06:09] <threethirty> tompeach: this is the one my brother used http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28814/
[06:09] <rico> do u know a service for mp3-files which is like youtube; after the upload i should be able to embed a flashobject into my site (a little mp3-player)?
[06:09] <PG> how can i start looking glass
[06:09] <zabin> how do i search my hard drive for a folder called backup?
[06:10] <Bothered> zabin: locate backup
[06:10] <hende07> kismet still looking
[06:10] <kismet> hende07, java -version < type that in terminal
[06:10] <PG> zabin go to loaction on the esktop
[06:10] <person51090> thanks
[06:10] <threethirty> anyone come up with an idea on my beryl issue from earlier?
[06:10] <PG> and searchfunction
[06:10] <kismet> hende07, what do you get ?
[06:10] <person51090> but i have a question about that: i need to manage my partitions manually
[06:10] <threethirty> or did i miss it?
[06:10] <kismet> threethirty, try #Ubuntu-effects for beryl/compiz
[06:10] <Hirvinen> If you just want to identify your hardware, install lshw and use it. About generating some sort of sheets with fancy formatting, I don't know except for phpsysinfo, which plays with apache. If lshw isn't enough for you, try searching with your package manager front end.
[06:10] <threethirty> ty
[06:10] <person51090> ubuntu install on my slave drive, swap file on my master drive, etc
[06:11] <hende07> kismet 1.4.2 -02
[06:11] <person51090> can i do that from the tex-based?
[06:11] <kismet> person51090, its alright you can set it up that way. As long as grub writes on your mbr you are good to go
[06:11] <PG> can someone tell me how i get the looking glass worked
[06:11] <person51090> ok great thanks much
[06:11] <kismet> hende07, you need to install the JRE 6

[06:11] <kismet> person51090, np
[06:11] <Klekkus> can anybody tel me how to change the language from german to english? I'm using ssh.
[06:11] <kismet> hende07, type sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin

[06:11] <hende07> i have the sun java 6 console
[06:12] <firelord901> Hi everybody
[06:12] <kismet> person51090, you will need to install the vga drivers for your card. What vga card do you have ?
[06:12] <PG> hi
[06:12] <daan> Klekkus: it still doesn't work?
[06:12] <Bothered> person51090: yes, unfortunately you might
[06:12] <rico> do u know a service for mp3-files which is like youtube; after the upload i should be able to embed a flashobject into my site (a little mp3-player)?
[06:12] <Klekkus> daan: nope
[06:12] <kismet> hende07, yes but you need the JRE
[06:12] <Bothered> person51090: There may, however, be a way to fix it (wait for other responses)
[06:12] <zabin> when i do locate backup it doesnt search /media/windows
[06:12] <GreatWizard> I have installed the 64bit version of desktop Ubuntu
[06:12] <Klekkus> i've looked for xorg.conf but ut doesn't exist
[06:12] <daan> Klekkus: so say when you do df -h you see german text
[06:12] <PG> rico: oh rico i have no idea
[06:12] <person51090> when I ran the resource cd, it worked out the drives fine. NVDIA GeForce4 Ti 4200
[06:12] <person51090> *drivers
[06:12] <GreatWizard> is there any way to downgrade it to the x86 version?
[06:12] <Lattyware> Klekkus: /etc/X11/xorg.conf - it does
[06:13] <rico> k. no prob
[06:13] <threethirty> rico: box.net has a widget for blog that can be set up that way
[06:13] <rico> thx.
[06:13] <zabin> Bothered: when i do locate backup it doesnt search /media/windows
[06:13] <blah123455> i just copied my linux partitions from hdd2 to a new hdd1 and of course grub is now hosed on the new drive.  How do i force grub to reinstall on the new drive ?
[06:13] <PG> rico: but look on google and look on homepagetools
[06:13] <Bothered> zabin: I'm looking into it
[06:13] <Klekkus> Lattyware: not on this machine
[06:13] <Klekkus> daan: like every error. when i'm installing a program
[06:13] <Bothered> zabin: you might not have that drive mounted
[06:13] <hende07> kismet k done

[06:14] <PG> had some one or use some one looking glasssssssssssssss?

[06:14] <zabin> im sure
[06:14] <zabin> i can view the files there thats why
[06:14] <Bothered> zabin: the find command will look everywhere
[06:14] <Bothered> zabin: I'm trying to remember how to use it
[06:15] <SirTane> andylockran, my god
[06:15] <Lattyware> Klekkus: ... You are positive, because as far as I'm aware, with Ubuntu and X, you must have that file.
[06:15] <kismet> hende07, type sudo gedit /etc/jvm, above /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj, you need to enter the line : /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun, save the file and then type java -version
[06:15] <SirTane> you have no idea what i just went through, haha
[06:15] <Sp4rKy> jvai: what about the medibutu server ?

[06:15] <GreatWizard> is there any way to change from amd64 ubuntu to x86 without reformating?
[06:15] <Pici> !patience | PG
[06:16] <Bothered> zabin: try "find / backup"
[06:16] <slicky> PG: ftw are u typing abount?
[06:16] <kismet> person51090, chances are restricted drivers module will probably get you through but even if it doesn't Nvidia will probably have drivers for your vga, make sure that they do and you can install them.
[06:16] <ubotu> PG: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[06:16] <SirTane> i got stuck installing at 6%
[06:16] <SirTane> decided it would reboot
[06:16] <Bothered> person51090: I don't know enough about that to help you, you need to wait for someone else to respon
[06:16] <Bothered> *respond
[06:16] <SirTane> then wouldn't let me get into even windows
[06:16] <PG> yes yes come on
[06:16] <jersully> Love Ubuntu.  Been meaning to get into the Linux world for ages and just haven't gotten around to it.  Can't imagine it have been any easier.
[06:16] <person51090> kismet: i have them installed on my xp install, which I'm on now
[06:16] <Lattyware> Klekkus: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xorg,conf <- check there
[06:16] <Lattyware> *xorg.conf
[06:16] <SirTane> so you guys can talk about how windows breaks all the time, but ubuntu not only wouldn't work, it tried to take windows down with it
[06:16] <rustalot> is there a webite I can look at that will have hardware compatibility for different laptops?
[06:16] <PG> i said i cant start the desktop enviroment "Looking Glss"

[06:17] <morpheus_> anybody got a cisco aironet card working with ubuntu?
[06:17] <jersully> What's the best way to install the Feisty Fawn files locally so I don't have to keep feeding in the instal CD?  This old laptop has an external drive. :/
[06:17] <person51090> kismet: k thanks. I'll try the alternate cd when the ISO finishes downloading
[06:17] <blithen> How can I run a .run file using the terminal. It keep saying permission denied.
[06:17] <kismet> person51090, it would be advisable to copy the "linux" drivers for your vga

I got around it by simply using the Alternate CD and installing from text.  The system boots/works beautifully.

[06:21] <techbee> hello  all

[06:23] <person51090> mzanfardino: great. I just realized that I'm not using my slave drive for backup, as I had intended, and it was just going to waste. So now i'm seting up a dual boot
[06:23] <kismet> person51090, also on boot, do a check cd for defects to be sure
[06:23] <PG> kisme:to install azureus and other things like ati driver how do i installed them with the terminal
[06:23] <kismet> hende07, download azureues
[06:23] <kikkomanchow> can someone forward me to a good place to learn how to install Apache > MySql
[06:23] <person51090> kismet: ok thanks, and I just ran the checksum
[06:23] <NigelS> elliotjhug: and they will then follow that procedure 100% of the time and not understand why
[06:23] <hende07> there is no option for that
[06:23] <academy> I'm running edgy on my laptop.  There's no config for eth0 in /etc/network/interfaces, yet NetworkManager doesn't seem to be able to find my 8139too nic.  ifconfig eth0 works. Any ideas?
[06:23] <jos> no i yes wont th etesting amsn like 97b ore 78
[06:23] <kismet> PG, sudo apt-get install "program"
[06:23] <PG> aha
[06:23] <PG> ok
[06:23] <elliotjhug> NigelS: Fair enough
[06:24] <PG> i hope it for you kismet
[06:24] <kismet> jos, amsn in general is ugly that post makes your amsn look very pwetty :p
[06:24] <mzanfardino> person51090: if it's any consolation, I was able to boot from the very same CD that failed on the new hardward on a machine with older hardware.  In my case I think it has something to do with my ATI chipset and the liveCD image, but I can't swear by it.  Just besure to verify the MD5 or SHA of the ISO before you burn
[06:24] <kismet> "hope"?
[06:24] <PG> ^^
[06:24] <NigelS> hende07: http://azureus.sourceforge.net/ <-- it's on the front page, azureus 2.5
[06:24] <bobdrakken> hey how can i set up a i guess appache server
[06:24] <bobdrakken> i want to access my files from teh computer in my living room
[06:24] <person51090> mzanfardino: thanks. I'm verifying the MD5 right now, and then I'll burn slow as recommended.
[06:24] <guardian> does feisty come with builtin cd copy software ?
[06:24] <checkergrrl> how do i open a chm file?
[06:24] <elliotjhug> blithen:  working?
[06:24] <Lattyware> Klekkus: Sorry, was away. I'm not to sure, a little over my head.
[06:24] <person51090> ok heading out. thanks all!
[06:24] <Lattyware> Klekkus: Best to get another opinion.
[06:24] <blithen> No.
[06:24] <mzanfardino> person51090: not sure if the slow burn makes a difference, but if it does come back and let me know
[06:24] <jos>  amsn 78 let slook google
[06:24] <elliotjhug> blithen: Whats the file name?
[06:25] <Bothered> bobdrakken: ssh-server is a much easier way to do that
[06:25] <blithen> pbsetup.run
[06:25] <person51090> mzanfardino: I won't know, now I'm burning the alternate cd, before was the live
[06:25] <mzanfardino> person51090: ah, nm.
[06:25] <bobdrakken> ok
[06:25] <kismet> person51090, alternate cd is Live too just not GUI :p
[06:25] <bobdrakken> ill install it
[06:25] <bobdrakken> its the same idea bothered?
[06:25] <Klekkus> Lattyware: okey, do you know about any obius way to find out which distro it is?
[06:25] <bobdrakken> type in the ip
[06:25] <bobdrakken> and put in pwd?
[06:25] <elliotjhug> blithen: type ./pbsetup.run
[06:25] <person51090> kismet: ahh thanks. *text-based. I don't know any the of the terminology just yet--but give me a week or so...
[06:25] <Bothered> bobdrakken: you can access using an ssh client
[06:26] <bobdrakken> Bothered: whats that
[06:26] <kismet> Klekkus, uname -r
[06:26] <maelvino> dunno
[06:26] <Bothered> bobdrakken: e.g. typing ssh://user@ip in nautilus
[06:26] <hende07> k its dling
[06:26] <kismet> person51090, :)
[06:26] <PG> i hate azureus, everytime it disapeard
[06:26] <Bothered> bobdrakken: or you can use WinSCP in Windows
[06:26] <blithen> I did type that in
[06:26] <blithen> But when it's starts installing the punkbuster update, it says access denied
[06:26] <kismet> pg, its working fine for me and i haven't done anything out of this world :/
[06:26] <checkergrrl> does ubuntu have kchmviewer?
[06:26] <calm> I already have Feisty installed, and I want to dual-boot Windows XP. I have 2 hard drives: sda is a 120gb SATA drive (I just use it for backup). sdb is a 200gb SATA drive. I've installed Ubuntu on it, and I've left ~40gb unallocated. I want to install Windows XP in the unallocated space, without touching my Ubuntu installation. After I install XP, it's going to overwrite the MBR, right? So I think I'll need to reinstall GRUB. How do I d
[06:26] <Lattyware> Klekkus: Google it.
[06:26] <kismet> checkergrrl, try installing via synaptic
[06:27] <PG> i too my friend beecause my torrent is on 50%
[06:27] <Bothered> bobdrakken: you can, alternatively, use file sharing, although I have never personally set that up
[06:27] <Klekkus> Lattyware: i've been google arout all day^^
[06:27] <hende07> how do i install it
[06:27] <elliotjhug> blithen: error message exactly?
[06:27] <PG> i changed nothing
[06:27] <hende07> kismet
[06:27] <mzanfardino> person51090: you will likely need more than a week for the terminology! :D
[06:27] <Klekkus> kismet: i got up "2.6.8-2-686-smp"
[06:27] <checkergrrl> thansk kismet
[06:27] <logreeval> Hi, Does UbuntuStudio have the capability to do lightsaber/blaster effects?
[06:27] <guardian> does feisty come with builtin cdrom copy software ? or which software do you recommend
[06:27] <SirTane> okay, i'll ask this again
[06:27] <Bothered> bobdrakken: file sharing is a bit safer, because ssh-server allows remote access to your system, which you might not want to enable
[06:27] <hende07> kismet how do i install once its dl
[06:27] <SirTane> maybe this time it will work
[06:27] <kismet> calm, after you install xp, just pop in the live cd, choose guided installation, choose not to format the partitions, it will give you errors claiming you have to blah blah, ignore goto next, Grub will write to your main hd, restart and that should solve it
[06:28] <nomic> will a debian (suffix '.deb') package install on ubuntu?
[06:28] <SirTane> first time trying to install linux
[06:28] <logreeval> guardian: yes
[06:28] <SirTane> how can i do it with out a cd drive, with out reformatting and with a dual boot with windows xp
[06:28] <SirTane> linux nerds: go!
[06:28] <blithen> The error message is "ERROR: You do not have write permission to the file blahblah"
[06:28] <hende07> ?
[06:28] <kismet> hende07, azureues? just extract from what i remember, don't have to do anything, extract and run azurues, double click, chose run from terminal and it should run
[06:28] <CaptainM> nomic yes, just double click it
[06:28] <calm> kismet: thanks for your help. =)
[06:28] <nomic> ok thanks captainm
[06:28] <hende07> huh
[06:28] <kismet> np
[06:29] <elliotjhug> blithen: OK, you probably need to run it with root privledges - stick sudo in front of the command.
[06:29] <kaikala33> how do i start bootlogd?
[06:29] <hende07> i downloaded it it has to be installed right
[06:29] <kismet> hende07, no just has to be extracted and you have to run it, thats all.
[06:29] <kaikala33> on feisty fawn that is
[06:30] <hende07> where should i extract to kismet
[06:30] <blithen> blithen@blithen-desktop:~$ sudo chmod +x pbsetup.run
[06:30] <blithen> blithen@blithen-desktop:~$ sudo ./pbsetup.run

[06:30] <kismet> PG, yes you can just make a launcher for it that you won't need the terminal.
[06:30] <kismet> hende07, anywhere in your home folder.
[06:31] <Frogzoo> PG: or run it as 'nohup azureus'
[06:31] <elliotjhug> blithen: Did it quit, or is it still running?
[06:31] <jvai> gusty gibson to replace dapper in 09?
[06:31] <hende07> kismet???
[06:31] <kismet> [20:30:07]  <kismet> hende07, anywhere in your home folder.
[06:31] <Frogzoo> jvai: noone knows
[06:31] <hende07> wheres that
[06:31] <jvai> ok
[06:31] <blithen> It tried still running, but then I try and play my game I am kicked from every server because of punkbuster(PB) not being updated.
[06:31] <Bothered> hende07: ~
[06:31] <kismet> hende07, where did you download it?
[06:31] <NigelS> calm: there are a number of things you can do - one interesting way is to make a file which is a dd of the mbr as it stands and store that as a file in c: and then point boot.ini to it - that way ntldr can bootstrap grub.  Alternatively you can use a live cd for example - chroot into your ubuntu install and run grub-install to write grub back onto the mbr
[06:31] <kaikala33> anybody any ideas on bootlogd?i tried /etc/default/bootlogd and changed it to yes but still....
[06:31] <blithen> Meaning it didn't copy the correct files into the correct place.
[06:32] <lostboyz> i installed realplayer 32 on my amd64 but it is not playing any sound.
[06:32] <Bothered> hende07: home is /home/username/, or simply ~
[06:32] <PG> it works
[06:32] <sagar> Hello
[06:32] <NigelS> calm: obviously you'd need to update menu.lst to tell it you now have a windows install also
[06:32] <techbee>  techbee: how can i install  ubuntu from  my pen drive
[06:32] <kismet> PG, congrats :)
[06:32] <sagar> I have a problem with my ubuntu distro, can you help me?
[06:32] <rambo3> !ask
[06:32] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:32] <veratu> I am getting grub error 25 when i boot my system and i cant seem to reinstall grub to sda ... can someone please help ?

[06:33] <hende07> ok now how do i run it
[06:33] <kismet> !lamp | kikkomanchow

[06:33] <ubotu> kikkomanchow: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[06:33] <Bothered> sagar: ask away
[06:33] <kismet> heh
[06:33] <lostboyz> how can i play sound with my realplayer 32 in my amd64 because the sound is not playing when i load a stream
[06:33] <m0u5e> anyone know of any good personal firewalls (like firestarter) except they support having 2 internet connections at the same time (or at least smart switching, like between lan and wifi)?
[06:33] <kikkomanchow> thanks kismet, rambo

[06:33] <hende07> how do i make it run
[06:33] <elliotjhug> blithen: Not nessasarily - a gdk warning might be it trying to open a UI and just taking a while. WHat are you actually trying to do. Ignoring the method you chose.
[06:33] <sagar> and there is nothing that i can do

[06:35] <Spork> does anyoen have any idea what this means?  google did not help too mcuh
[06:35] <Spork> *much ar: could not create temporary file whilst writing archive: No more archived files
[06:35] <Bothered> sagar: That's very difficult to diagnose. Does Cntl Alt Backspace restart X?
[06:35] <elliotjhug> blithen: OK, whats it an installer for. Because running as root gives you write access pretty much everywhere
[06:35] <rambo3> SirTane, couple of Gigs . i am not shure . try asking !install if you find anything else

[06:36] <sagar> and neither does my mouse
[06:36] <Bothered> sagar: Do you have any programs running when it crashes? Any non-standard daemons running?
[06:36] <hende07> kismet then what
[06:36] <kismet> hende07, next to command click on browse and show it the location of the azurues shell script (where you have extracted it), choose the apporpiate icon, choose an appropriate name and save and you should have it on your panel.
[06:36] <sagar> i have programs running sometimes
[06:36] <sagar> like firefox

[06:37] <sagar> yes
[06:37] <w2ddrrdd> i need stuff like msn and stuff but for ubuntu
[06:37] <sagar> infact

[06:37] <kismet> hende07, right click on the panel and select add to panel, there on top you will see add custom application, then follow the instructions stated above.
[06:37] <sagar> my keyboard does not work
[06:37] <veratu> can anyone help with GRUB please ????
[06:37] <NigelS> w2ddrrdd: gaim or amsn is the principle IM client used in ubuntu
[06:37] <Bothered> sagar: I don't know what the problem is
[06:37] <mattwalston> Any thoughts about the usability of x86_64?  I have Core 2 hardware but am unsure how many problems I will encounter
[06:38] <sagar> can you direst me else where?
[06:38] <NigelS> w2ddrrdd: gaim has support for lots of IM protocols, MSN, aim etc
[06:38] <sagar> direct*
[06:38] <fbc> Question: Everytime I click on a jpeg it tells me it's a security rick and I have to right click to pick a viewer. How do I get rid of that?
[06:38] <w2ddrrdd> NigelS, is there a site where i can look through all the software?
[06:38] <jramsey> w2ddrrdd, msn and the like use MS proprietary HTML extensions ... many things will not work (like the zone game site)
[06:38] <hende07> right but what file do i use for app
[06:38] <NigelS> w2ddrrdd: for one you can go to applications - add/remove software and broswe through categories of what's available or launch synaptic to do the same
[06:38] <Ricket> How do I execute a program from the terminal without having to wait for the program to terminate to execute another command? Like in another thread, or spawn a process, or something?
[06:39] <sagar> ummm bothered, are you there?
[06:39] <NigelS> w2ddrrdd: otherwise info is available on the main ubuntu site and there are oodles of sites out there if you just google for "msn linux" for example
[06:39] <Bothered> sagar: try asking again, see if someone else responds
[06:39] <veratu> I am getting grub error 25 when i boot my system and i cant seem to reinstall grub to sda ... can someone please help ?
[06:39] <mattwalston> RichiH, $ command &
[06:39] <w2ddrrdd> whats WINE?
[06:39] <NigelS> Ricket: use an ampersand
[06:39] <kupesoft> What is the root or user ('ubuntu') password on the live cd?
[06:39] <sagar> hmmm ok thanks a lot for the time :)
[06:39] <blithen> Woah nevermind I guess it did update. I just assumed there was a prblem  'cause it said permission denied. >< Sorry guys.
[06:39] <veratu> kupesoft:  there isnt one .. do a sudo su to get root
[06:39] <Ricket> NigelS: before or after?
[06:39] <hende07> its workin yay
[06:39] <kupesoft> veratu: I installed ssh on the live boot at home and went to work );
[06:39] <daan> fbc: It probably is another type of file
[06:39] <NigelS> w2ddrrdd: wine stands for wine is not an emulator - it's a compatibility layer that allows windows programs to run in a linux environment with varying degrees of success
[06:39] <kupesoft> veratu: So I can't get on?
[06:40] <NigelS> Ricket: after
[06:40] <kismet> hende07, congrats
[06:40] <hende07> how do i get a icon for az in the panel
[06:40] <Ricket> NigelS: Okay, I'll try it, thanks!
[06:40] <hende07> its a page with a x
[06:40] <littlegator> Does anyone know why my computer would be freezing? It only happens while I'm scrolling down in firefox with the mouse wheel...
[06:40] <kismet> hende07, just right click on the panel and select the icon from the azureus folder
[06:40] <NigelS> hende07: it's really super easy  - it's easy to work out yourself, just right click onthe panel and see which option you think is the best
[06:40] <fbc> daan: OK, but how do I get rid of that security feature?
[06:40] <w2ddrrdd> will ubuntu support most windows software?
[06:41] <daan> fbc: I don't know but can you right click that jpeg file and select properties?
[06:41] <daan> fbc: What does MIME type say
[06:41] <NigelS> w2ddrrdd: nope - there's really no need, there are as-good alternatives or better and they're more varied within the repository
[06:41] <kismet> !wine | w2ddrrdd
[06:41] <ubotu> w2ddrrdd: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[06:41] <Bothered> kupesoft: erm, I think the system is probably open to the world then
[06:41] <w2ddrrdd> NigelS, is there sites which shows me all the alternatives?
[06:41] <Bothered> kupesoft: actually, no
[06:41] <kupesoft> Bothered: well, it's behind a firewall
[06:41] <NigelS> w2ddrrdd: the sort of thing wine runs are programs that we can't get in linux so for example many use it to play Worl of Warcraft
[06:41] <Bothered> kupesoft: ssh doesn't accept empty passwords by default (I think)
[06:42] <hende07> theres no icon when i try to add a icon
[06:42] <Bothered> kupesoft: I don't think you can access it, no
[06:42] <Spork> does sudo run stuff with my enviroment variables?
[06:42] <Hitomaro> how do I get a vhost?
[06:42] <kismet> hende07, search for icons online and download one and show the panel the location.
[06:42] <w2ddrrdd> i want a list of alternative software?
[06:42] <NigelS> hende07: you can choose an icon in the menu - if you look in the azureus folder there are two pngs - one for the program one for .torrents
[06:43] <NigelS> kismet: it comes with its icons
[06:43] <Bothered> kupesoft: Yes, empty passwords are disabled. I don't think you can access your machine
[06:43] <littlegator> Does anyone know why my computer would be freezing? It only happens while I'm scrolling down in firefox with the mouse wheel...
[06:43] <veratu> I am getting grub error 25 when i boot my system and i cant seem to reinstall grub to sda ... can someone please help ?
[06:43] <NigelS> w2ddrrdd: again, think of what you want to do and google or browse the add/remove software app which has lots of detailed descriptions of different software
[06:43] <kismet> NigelS, i know but he can't seem to locate them in the azureus folder
[06:44] <fbc> I dunno, it's happening on my mom's machine, and I just need to know what I need to do once i get there.
[06:44] <NigelS> w2ddrrdd: there are lots of sites like this for example http://linuxappfinder.com/windows
[06:44] <Sam_T> anyone know an application which can convert .flv files to other formats?
[06:44] <fbc> daan: I dunno, it's happening on my mom's machine, and I just need to know what I need to do once i get there.
[06:45] <g[r] eek> hi i want my ubuntu to set my java classpath before it loads any other rc bootup scripts (startup services). where do i set this?
[06:45] <daan> fbc: well I don't know how to remove that warning but you could try renaming the files to the right extension
[06:45] <veratu> I am getting grub error 25 when i boot my system and i cant seem to reinstall grub to sda ... can someone please help ?

[06:46] <danfg> i've made changes to /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/us, but the added layouts i made aren't showing up in System > Preferences > Keyboard. wth?
[06:46] <Hreno> okay, thanks
[06:47] <NigelS> veratu: the grub manual states that error 25 is a disk read error - sounds like its looking for something that isn't there maybe
[06:47] <g[r] eek> hi i want my ubuntu to set my java classpath before it loads any other rc bootup scripts (startup services). where do i set this?
[06:48] <compwiz18> what program should I use to make an apt repository?
[06:48] <g[r] eek> sorry make that my JAVA_HOME path
[06:48] <equium> chil1: just ask
[06:48] <John`> anyone here tried MUGEN for linux yet?
[06:48] <jramsey> so spawning off an app with, e.g., sudo nautilus & prevents me from entering the sudo password; how is data entered with & ??
[06:48] <veratu> rambo3:  right now i am on the live cd and i can get to the drive via /media/disk and i can edit the menu.lst file ... i just changed from sdb to sda and i have fixed all those pointers in the grub list to be sda now ... but still the error
[06:48] <ico2_> hi, running up-to-date ubuntu gutsy, mobo is intel DG965WH, how do i control fan speeds (preferably automatically)?
[06:49] <chil1> Alright, I've got a dell soundblaster LIVE card and I can't seem to get any of the sound working
[06:49] <danfg> the "Choose a layout" window, for keyboard layouts in System > Preferences > Keyboard, it doesn't update if you add layouts in /etc/X11/xkb, what now?
[06:49] <NigelS> jramsey: & just makes it run in the background
[06:50] <rambo3> veratu, change /boot/grub/devicemap then : sudo chroot /media/disk and  run : update-grub
[06:50] <jramsey> NigelS, i know but is there a way of providing the data when it's spawned? can i redirect stdin when it's spawned?
[06:50] <Hreno> sorry to ask this here, but what is name of firefox extension that can tell you what packeges were sent with POST? I'm looking for this long time now
[06:50] <veratu> permission denied
[06:50] <verb3k_> what's the name of the gutsy support channel?
[06:50] <daan> chil1: have you tried alsamixer
[06:50] <chil1> Yeah.
[06:50] <profoX`> verb3k_: #ubuntu+1
[06:51] <verb3k_> profoX`, thanks
[06:51] <Tead> Hi. I've just finished downloading the new Ubuntu, running on windows professinal serice pack 2, I understand I need to get this to a disk, I have a dvd burner and the disc. Should I just paste hte contense of the file [unripped]  into the disk or what? HELPP!
[06:51] <daan> chil1: what does lspci say about the card
[06:51] <profoX`> verb3k_: np
[06:51] <Hreno> Tead: do you have iso file?
[06:51] <Surkow> @ Taed - you need to burn the iso file you downloaded with an image burner
[06:51] <Tead> I dont think it came with one.
[06:51] <NigelS> jramsey: I'm not sure I follow what you're trying to do
[06:51] <chil1> Daan: I don't know what that is.
[06:52] <daan> Tead: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/burncdcc.html
[06:52] <verb3k_> ico2_,  questions regarding gutsy should be asked in #ubuntu+1
[06:52] <genii> Tead no. you need to write the CD from the image file. Most burning programs allow this, such as Nero or CDBurnerXP
[06:52] <littlegator> Why does my computer freeze whenever I'm using firefox?
[06:52] <veratu> rambo3: chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': Permission denied
[06:52] <NigelS> Tead: you should burn the iso as is presuming you downloaded the iso
[06:52] <Tead> Oh k thanks.
[06:52] <ico2_> verb3k_, kk
[06:52] <daan> chil1: you should type that command in a terminal
[06:52] <g[r] eek> hi i want my ubuntu to set my JAVA_HOME path before it loads any other rc bootup scripts (startup services). where do i set this?
[06:52] <rambo3> veratu, tahts strange , try sudo -i and then chroot
[06:52] <Tead> I went to http://www.ubuntu.com/, cliocked download now, got the desktop ed, unzipped it and thats all sofar.
[06:53] <daan> Tead: you should not unzip it
[06:53] <piyush> my xorg.conf says default resolution as 1200X800 still the display is 1024X768
[06:53] <veratu> rambo3:  cannot execute binary file
[06:53] <genii> Tead Pls note Nero needs to be instructed specifically to look for .iso extension and not just .nrg extension when looking for cd images to burn
[06:53] <Tead> Why =//
[06:53] <daan> Tead: burn the whole file with the program I just gave you
[06:53] <veratu> rambo3:  i am on the live cd .... is that an issue ?
[06:53] <chil1> Daan: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28822/
[06:53] <rambo3> veratu, what partition is ubuntu on ?
[06:53] <Tead> Do i go onto the RAR file or the unzipped?
[06:53] <littlegator> Why would my computer be freezing when using firefox? It's happened 12 times in the past 24 hours...
[06:53] <genii> daan which burn prog?
[06:54] <Twigathy> ...
[06:54] <daan> genii: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/burncdcc.html
[06:54] <Twigathy> I think I have a clone.
[06:54] <chil1> Littlegator: Its happened to me before, I couldn't ever figure out what was causing it. A fresh install solved the problem.
[06:54] <veratu> rambo3:i just copied the partitions over from sdb to sda and remove the sdb drive ... so ubuntu is now on sda partition 1
[06:54] <verb3k_> littlegator,  what's your system specs?
[06:54] <genii> daan Ah, OK :) Haven't seen that one yet. Usually for XP/2K I recommend CDBurnerXP (free)
[06:54] <Gizmo_The_Great> Hi. I have written a very basic script file that is basically a series of mount commands for several shared NFS drives on my internal system. However, it seems to take ages! About 5 minutes for just two shares. Is this normal?
[06:55] <daan> genii: this one is small and does one thing, hard to screw up :)
[06:55] <littlegator> verb: Could you be more specific? There's quite a bit of system specs. However, this hasn't happened to me before and it ran fine on windows.
[06:55] <CaptainM> Tead, it't not a rar file. It's a .iso file. Use nero or something and look for an option called something like 'burn image to disk'.
[06:55] <littlegator> chill: a fresh install of firefox or ubuntu?
[06:55] <rambo3> veratu, as root : sudo mkdir /mnt/tmp && sudo mount /dev/sda1  /mnt/tmp/ && sudo chroot /mnt/tmp
[06:55] <chil1> littlegator: Ubuntu
[06:55] <Gizmo_The_Great> I stress that the mounted drives are on another PC from the one that I am running the mounting script from.
[06:55] <littlegator> chill: I'll look for another fix first >_>
[06:55] <Twigathy> Gizmo_The_Great: Is there lots of stuff in these remote drives?
[06:56] <veratu> rambo3: done
[06:56] <chil1> littlegator: Heh, okay.
[06:56] <daan> Tead: Just burn the whole 700 mb file with the program
[06:56] <Gizmo_The_Great> Twigathy: on one there is about 120Gb - on the other about 12Gb
[06:56] <rambo3> now ubuntu-grub
[06:56] <Tead> Ok thanks Daan.
[06:56] <Tead> It's "Writing image to disc..
[06:56] <chil1> Daan: did you get my pastebin?
[06:56] <Tead> Whaen it's done, so I just reset with the CD in the PC?
[06:56] <daan> Tead: superb :)
[06:56] <daan> chil1: Yes but kinda busy
[06:56] <Tead> daan: Thanks <33
[06:56] <veratu> rambo3:  but when i go to mnt there is no tmp mount
[06:57] <Twigathy> Gizmo_The_Great: tried -onolock ? (Read the manpages about what that does though :))
[06:57] <verb3k_> littlegator, a lot of things could be the reason , some of which is using poorly written plugins and extensions
[06:57] <daan> chil1: what do you get when you start alsamixer?
[06:57] <veratu> fs
[06:57] <Gizmo_The_Great> Twigathy: i had not read about that. I will go and look. Thanks
[06:57] <Twigathy> np
[06:57] <littlegator> verb: I have 0 extensions...
[06:57] <rambo3> veratu, read once again
[06:58] <Oxxy> hello??
[06:58] <CaptainM> Tead, yup
[06:58] <chil1> daan: It tells me my master is all the way up
[06:58] <daan> chil1: yes but what card does it say
[06:58] <veratu> rambo3:  read what .. i did it exactly as you posted
[06:58] <verb3k_> littlegator,  can you reproduce the crash ?
[06:58] <danfg> i made changes to /etc/X11/xkb, i should use xkbcomp to compile these changes?
[06:58] <chil1> Daan: Dell Sound Blaster Live!
[06:58] <daan> chil1: also you should turn up PCM
[06:59] <chil1> Daan: Yeah, its up.
[06:59] <daan> chil1: and unmute both by pressing m
[06:59] <Oxxy> can someone help me? im a complete  noob and need some help with Ubuntu 7,04 and mi Conexant HDA sound card
[06:59] <promi> help my ubuntu kernel config
[06:59] <veratu> rambo3:  saying you must specify the filesystem type ?
[07:00] <kikkomanchow>  i think i screwed up my apache2 installation already
[07:00] <kikkomanchow> >..
[07:00] <chil1> Daan: both are unmuted
[07:00] <rambo3> veratu, mount -t ext3 /dev/sda1 /mnt/tmp
[07:00] <littlegator> verb: sorry, my computer crashed while I was exporting my bookmarks in firefox...
[07:00] <daan> chil1: hmm let me think
[07:00] <chil1> Daan: Nevermind, fixed it myself
[07:01] <veratu> rambo3:  mount: special device /dev/sda1 does not exist
[07:01] <daan> chil1: what was it?
[07:01] <jramsey> NigelS, i missed ur answer i was afk
[07:01] <chil1> Daan: Just had to play with random things in alsa, hah, Analog/Digital Output jack, had to mute it.
[07:01] <daan> chil1: ah ok :) nice
[07:01] <Oxxy> can someone help me with my Ubuntu 7,04 and my Conexant HDA sound card? it doesnt work at all..
[07:01] <veratu> rambo3:  thanks a ton for helping me ... i have to get this fixed soon and i really appreciate your time
[07:01] <Sonderblade> is there a command you can type to get a list of all available updates?
[07:02] <osxdude|laptop> is there a way to make GParted NOT run the simulation?
[07:02] <daan> Sonderblade: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[07:02] <rambo3> veratu, so its not sda1 , try sudo fdisk -l
[07:03] <Sonderblade> daan: that installs available updates, i just want a list
[07:03] <verb3k_> littlegator,  I see ,  you can file a bug report through launchpad.net
[07:03] <veratu> rambo3:  shows sda1 sda2
[07:03] <daan> Sonderblade: well you can just control-c and not install them
[07:03] <ptn107> Sonderblade: you can go into synaptic package manager and mark all upgrades, then sort them to the top of the list
[07:03] <daan> Sonderblade: or use -s
[07:03] <Sonderblade> daan: yes but that requires root
[07:03] <veratu> rambo3:  i got it to mount
[07:04] <veratu> rambo3:  ok now what
[07:04] <rambo3> veratu, what was the problem
[07:04] <veratu> rambo3:  its mounted on /mnt/tmp
[07:04] <Sonderblade> ptn107: no, i want to use the list in a shell script so synaptic doesn't work
[07:04] <daan> Sonderblade: ah then I can't help you
[07:04] <veratu> rambo3:  i would assume i need to reinstall grub to that partition
[07:04] <BigToe7000> sigh, why does the "Select and install software" section of the alternate install take so long? :S
[07:05] <rambo3> veratu, chroot /mnt/tmp  , if that doesn't work post you /boot/grub/menu.lst to paster
[07:05] <veratu> rambo3: that worked im now at root@ubuntu:/#
[07:05] <rambo3> update-grub
[07:06] <jramsey> sudo nautilus & [07:06] <veratu> rambo3:  ok  it system it did something ... let me reboot .. ill brb
[07:06] <veratu> system=said
[07:06] <veratu> thanks a ton
[07:06] <Ricket> After I log in with my username and password, some things load but then the loading process stalls for exactly 2 minutes. I think it is because of gnome-wm waiting for compiz to finish executing, but compiz does not actually finish, just continues to log to the console. I have tried an ampersand after the exec line in gnome-wm, it doesn't help. What can I do??
[07:07] <sagar_> hello
[07:07] <sagar_> I have the following problem with my Fiesty Fawn:
[07:08] <sagar_> My system freezes and my mouse and keyboard dont work
[07:08] <sagar_> I have to restart the system
[07:08] <sagar_> can some one help me?
[07:08] <Tead> Hwy
[07:09] <Ricket> sagar_: that might be due to overheating. do all of your fans work? is the ambient room temperature hot? how long does it work until it freezes?
[07:09] <Tead> Is Daan still here?
[07:09] <daan> Tead: Jup
[07:09] <Tead> I installed, then reset, it just auto loads windows.
[07:09] <Tead> Nothing happens.
[07:09] <Tead> =// Just useal loading.
[07:09] <daan> Tead: Did you install Ubuntu?
[07:09] <Tead> I put it onto the disc.
[07:10] <Oxxy> Can someone please send me a private message if wants to help me with my problem:
[07:10] <Oxxy> I cant make my Sound Card word on Ubuntu 7,04, pleaseeee i would really appreciate that im stuck.
[07:10] <CaptainM> Tead, you have to go into the bios settings menu to change the boor order
[07:10] <daan> Tead: Do you have your pc set up to start from cd?
[07:10] <Tead> 8-) Nope.
[07:10] <Tead> Explain it basicly :P
[07:10] <pkundu> hi, I have a Celeron 1.2GHz, 256MB SDRam, 20GB system.....which version of ubuntu should i go for ?
[07:10] <Ricket> pkundu: the desktop version
[07:10] <CaptainM> look for a line that say "type [a key]  for setup" or somethinh
[07:10] <CaptainM> when the system is booting
[07:10] <daan> Tead: Probably the del kay
[07:10] <Ricket> Tead: or if you have a dell, prolly the F2 key
[07:11] <daan> Tead: yep
[07:11] <Tead> F2 or DEL?
[07:11] <Ricket> or whatever key it says...
[07:11] <daan> Tead: you should see it when you start up your pc
[07:11] <pkundu> Ricket : I ried xubuntu but it eatup 210MB of RAM
[07:11] <Tead> Ok after that.
[07:11] <Tead> Then what?
[07:11] <pkundu> *tried
[07:11] <daan> Tead: then you somehow have to figure out to set the cdrom to boot before the harddrive
[07:11] <Tead> 0k
[07:11] <Tead> Wish me luck ;P
[07:11] <daan> Tead: every Bios is different
[07:12] <Ricket> Tead: usually the BIOS has a thing called "boot order". you need to read everything and find out how to make the CD-ROM come before the hard drive
[07:12] <daan> Tead: good luck :)
[07:12] <rambo3> pkundu, use e17
[07:12] <daan> Tead: what Ricket said
[07:12] <GhoSt> Can ive a +b ?
[07:12] <GhoSt> Can ive a +b ?
[07:12] <GhoSt> Can ive a +b ?
[07:12] <GhoSt> Can ive a +b ?
[07:12] <GhoSt> Can ive a +b ?
[07:12] <GhoSt> Can ive a +b ?
[07:12] <GhoSt> Can ive a +b ?
[07:12] <rambo3> ban?
[07:12] <nixternal> bye!
[07:12] <kkathman> wtf ?
[07:12] <Ricket> Wow that was idiotic
[07:12] <pkundu> rambo3 wat is e17
[07:12] <rpelaez> i try to follow the steps to install a lexmark z816 but it was impossible, anyone can help me to install that printer?
[07:12] <daan> LOl
[07:12] <nixternal> he just nailed another channel as well
[07:13] <NigelS> jramsey: sudo -b will run a task in the background
[07:13] <Ricket> nailed with what? it didn't do anything.... lol
[07:13] <NigelS> jramsey: so sudo -b nautilus would achieve the same effect I believe
[07:13] <terlmann> I wantz my e17 tii
[07:13] <Ricket> maybe he was trying to flood with a dial-up modem XD
[07:13] <terlmann> I wantz my e17 too
[07:13] <kkathman> yeah there are a bunch of kiddies home on break - they go around to see how many channels they can get banned from.
[07:13] <rambo3> pkundu, http://images.google.com/images?q=e17&btnG=Google-s%C3%B6kning&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&um=1&sa=N&tab=wi
[07:13] <live> hello!
[07:13] <live> :)
[07:13] <daan> Ricket: haha
[07:13] <hacosta_> hi, when i click on 'enable desktop effects' i get wobbly windows and stuff but no window decorations..
[07:13] <jramsey> NigelS, yep that does it; ty
[07:14] <pcmcia_trouble2> Anyone have any experience with a Dazzle 4 in 1 card reader
[07:14] <Ricket> hacosta_: make sure the gtk-window-decorator or compiz-gtk or something like that package is installed
[07:14] <Ricket> haha, sorry i don't know the exact name
[07:14] <terlmann> !e17
[07:14] <ubotu> Enlightenment (or "E") is a window manager for X, providing a useful, and good looking graphical shell in which to work. E17 is the current development version.
[07:14] <osxdude|laptop> YES! IT IS PARTITIONING! FINALLY!
[07:14] <pkundu> rambo3, how to install e17
[07:14] <sagar__> Ricket:Sorry I went offline for a while
[07:14] <hacosta_> Ricket, that's what i'm actually trying to find out (:
[07:14] <NigelS> jramsey: if you were doing something graphical of course you can also use gksudo - so press alt-f2 and then type gksudo gedit would do it too
[07:15] <jramsey> ty
[07:15] <Ricket> hacosta_ search for gtk in the synaptic or whatever package manager you use, and then look for the compiz-gtk or gtk-window-decorator package
[07:15] <Ricket> something about GTK is probably not installed on your system
[07:15] <rambo3> pkundu, there are instruction on ubuntu-forums
[07:15] <Ricket> Guess it's about time to restate my question, here we go again:
[07:16] <Ricket> After I log in with my username and password, some things load but then the loading process stalls for exactly 2 minutes. I think it is because of gnome-wm waiting for compiz to finish executing, but compiz does not actually finish, just continues to log to the console. I have tried an ampersand after the exec line in gnome-wm, it doesn't help. What can I do??
[07:17] <pkundu> rambo3, thank you
[07:17] <hacosta_> Ricket, check your hosts file and your loopback interface
[07:17] <Ricket> hacosta_: you're kidding right?
[07:17] <ramy__> how i can reduce System Monitor CPU usage ?
[07:17] <hacosta_> why would i?
[07:18] <Ricket> because it has nothing to do with network...
[07:18] <pcmcia_trouble2> anyone with any experience getting pcmcia card readers working?
[07:18] <NigelS> ramy__: hehe, I'm not sure - recode it to be more efficient? I've noticed that it seems to hog it a bit too
[07:18] <hacosta_> you mean.. when you log in to gnome?
[07:18] <Ricket> yep
[07:18] <hende07> hey everyone i need to know how to make linux when i open a torrent link to use azuerus instead of bit-torrent
[07:18] <Ricket> this problem only appears after i switch from metacity to compiz
[07:18] <pcmcia_trouble2> I get an ATA failed error on insert
[07:19] <hacosta_> oh.. i don't know then.. but try logging in to a window manager with no loopback, you'll see those sympthoms
[07:19] <Ricket> hende07: System>Preferences>Preferred Applications
[07:19] <pcmcia_trouble2> dmesg shows it assigns it to scsi but doesn't give it a block device to mount
[07:19] <Ricket> hacosta_: ah, i see why you said that then, but no that's not the problem (unfortunately) :(
[07:20] <Ricket> i did just get a good idea though, i'm gonna go try it. i'll BRB whether it works or not, because after i get this working then i have to get standby/hibernate working too :)
[07:20] <NigelS> hende07: in gnome right click on a torrent file and go to properties then choose the open with tab
[07:20] <NigelS> hende07: from there you can choose azureus to be the default

[07:23] <NigelS> hende07: you're saying that when you click on a torrent on a web site it wants to use bittorrent not azureus? well in firefox at least when that happens you can click on the drop down menu and choose to use another program which can then become the default

[07:28] <littlegator> Guys, I'm trying to install Opera because firefox crashes my system, but it fails with a dpkg error.
[07:28] <Oxxy>  i have Ubuntu 7,04 intalled and i cant make my sound card work....
[07:28] <Oxxy> i think its something simple but im a complete noob on linux so pleaseeeee
[07:28] <NigelS> UberPsyX: odd - what happens if you try and manually mount it from the terminal/
[07:28] <Oxxy>  i have Ubuntu 7,04 intalled and i cant make my sound card work....
[07:28] <pcmcia_trouble2> Oxxy did you try alsaconf?
[07:28] <yondie> Oxxy, i think u may need to compile alsa manually back
[07:28] <yondie> !alsa
[07:29] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[07:29] <veratu> rambo3:   you are amazing ... i had some small tweaking to do to the menu.lst file still .. but i am back up and working ... thank you a million
[07:29] <Oxxy> how do i do that?
[07:29] <yondie> !sound
[07:29] <NigelS> yondie: what makes you reach that conclusion?
[07:29] <Oxxy> thx a lot
[07:29] <Slasher`> littlegator: I got a .deb package off www.opers.com myself
[07:29] <NigelS> Oxxy: what make of soundcard do you have?
[07:29] <Oxxy> i.ll check taht and be right back
[07:29] <Slasher`> www.opera.com*

[07:31] <yondie> it`s either intel snd
[07:31] <yondie> or ati sound
[07:31] <yondie> or some more either of those series
[07:31] <Oxxy> it sais..HDA intel (alsa mixer)
[07:31] <Oxxy> mine xD
[07:31] <yondie> AC97 is consider as intel-hda sound
[07:31] <yondie> it`s usually around dat
[07:32] <Oxxy> how do i compile the last version of alsa?
[07:32] <NigelS> well it could be worth a shot - a lot of people seem to have problems with that card - it's just harsh for a newbie to compile stuff

[07:49] <bobbob1016> Trojaneyez, XP yes, the rest I don't know, I followed the guide, except for the start with Ubuntu stuff
[07:49] <earth> seems a little weird to me that a *nix wouldn't come with sshd installed (even if disabled and not running)
[07:49] <sagar__> My comp freezes sometimes with my keyboard and mouse both rendered inactive
[07:50] <george> what would be the command to configure my video card ?
[07:50] <sagar__> Can someone help me?
[07:50] <Trojaneyez> bobbob1016, well ok the first thing is get in the VXP machine and go to control panel user control, and click on Control way user's log in and out

[07:50] <Trojaneyez> bobbob1016 hold on i'll screen shot it all for you
[07:50] <earth> try "nvidia-settings"  if you have an nvidia card installed
[07:51] <bobbob1016> Trojaneyez, that I didn't see, one second
[07:51] <sagar__> Anolis:No
[07:51] <sagar__> nothing works

[07:57] <chadeldridge> yondie: does ffmpeg have a gui or is it commandline ?>
[07:57] <CarinArr> george: there isn't "a command"
[07:57] <CarinArr> george: it depends on what is wrong with it
[07:57] <newuser00> !es
[07:58] <yondie> chadeldridge, i`m afraid it`s CLI
[07:58] <bobbob1016> Trojaneyez, yeah, it gives an error, so I'd think the quotes are needed
[07:58] <CarinArr> and i'm getting less inclined to try to help you figure it out when you've got that sort of attitude

[07:58] <chadeldridge> yondie:  np ... just checking
[07:58] <george> CarinArr doesnt matter ... there is dpkg-reconfigure x-org-server ... something like this .... bleah
[07:58] <yondie> chadeldridge, another one is transcode...
[07:58] <yondie> i think it got gui front-end somewhere in the repo
[07:58] <CVD> how many versions of ubuntu can i skip then do an upgrade?
[07:58] <kravlin> george: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[07:58] <CarinArr> george: that doesn't reconfigure your video card, but go for it
[07:58] <chadeldridge> yondie:  seems that this program has about 20 pages of options ... let me try transcode
[07:59] <kravlin> george: that configures x windows...
[07:59] <kduboi1> chadeldridge: transcode has just about as many....
[07:59] <chadeldridge> any with a gui ?
[08:00] <kduboi1> maybe, i've only ever used the command line. and i prefer vlc to transcode...
[08:00] <CarinArr> chadeldridge: i use devede, it's easy as anything to use

[08:00] <pcmcia_trouble2> Yondie any idea about the pcmcia?
[08:01] <yondie> pcmcia_trouble2, hurm
[08:01] <sirus> so
[08:01] <yondie> have u tried sudo lshw and paste it somewherE.
[08:01] <sirus> there is something better than gaim?
[08:01] <CVD> ?
[08:01] <sirus> pidgin or something?
[08:02] <CarinArr> i thought pidgin was gaim
[08:02] <FrankTM> it is
[08:02] <kravlin> sirus: gaim is pidgin.
[08:02] <FrankTM> gaim was renamed
[08:02] <nomic> question: does this place have logs available?
[08:02] <chadeldridge> pidgin is the new name for gaim
[08:02] <CarinArr> phew, thought i was going slowly insane there
[08:02] <CarinArr> or maybe not so slowly
[08:02] <Aaron> hey guys im having a problem with ubuntu when i boot it off the cd and when it starts up i click on start or install ubuntu after it goes through some things i get an error saying. failed to start the x server(your graphical interface) screens found but none have usable configuration
[08:02] <george> kravlin it says thet xserver-xorg its not installed ... doesnt ubuntu use this as default ?
[08:02] <Anolis> what build of ubuntu has "Pidgin" builtin?
[08:03] <rage_ext> If someone needs help about Huawei E220 turn to me I know how it will work painlessly... :D
[08:03] <Devyll> hello all .. how do I start vnc4server from ssh ?
[08:03] <kravlin> ANolis: none yet.
[08:03] <sirus> Building dependency tree
[08:03] <sirus> Reading state information... Done
[08:03] <sirus> E: Couldn't find package pidgin
[08:03] <Anolis> oh ok
[08:03] <chadeldridge> who was it that used transcode ?
[08:03] <Anolis> !paste > sirus
[08:03] <pike_> Aaron: alt-ctrl-f2 then login then sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf    and scroll to bottom and change your driver to vesa. save then exit and sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart  <-- might work
[08:03] <george> kravlin and then i tried to install it with sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg and i get error saying that it could not write to some files ... any odea
[08:03] <george> Idea
[08:03] <kravlin> Aaron: Try using sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:03] <chadeldridge> george is x running ?
[08:04] <reacocard> is there any way to see what programs are using the sound card? Audacity is complaining :(
[08:04] <yondie> chadeldridge, i knew some of those fansub fanatic use dat to encode their subs
[08:04] <kravlin> george: Is x running?
[08:04] <george> chadeldridge how do i start it ?
[08:04] <alexmax> Hi, I have a question.  I've set up my microphone by raising the mic volume in alsamixer, however when I actually use the microphone I can hear the input from the mic coming out of the speakers.  Is there any way to prevent mic from coming out my speakers but still recording?
[08:04] <chadeldridge> yondie:  any idea how do just do something silly basic like take x.avi and push it to x.mpg
[08:04] <vox754> !pidgin
[08:04] <ubotu> pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It wasn't released in time for Feisty. Expect it in gutsy. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info.
[08:04] <CarinArr> given he has a blank screen i would say his x has crashed
[08:05] <chadeldridge> george:  you want to make sure its not running
[08:05] <george> chadeldridge well then tell me how to stop it
[08:05] <kravlin> carinarr: then how is he inputting commands? Through VNC?
[08:05] <CarinArr> kravlin: you can still get a terminal
[08:05] <kravlin> true.
[08:05] <chadeldridge> what are you trying to do george before i totally screw up your world by telling you something wrong
[08:05] <CarinArr> which i told him how to do
[08:05] <kravlin> ah.
[08:06] <pike_> alexmax: its a setting in alsamixer. youll need to play around with it. i had the same issue but dont remember or id give you the amixer command
[08:06] <CarinArr> and possibly he did follow some of the instruction before he got something stuck up his backside
[08:06] <Ivis> !weed
[08:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about weed - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[08:06] <george> chadeldridge GDM failed to start
[08:06] <Stwange> how do I make ubuntu start in verbose mode instead of gnome?
[08:07] <Trojaneyez> stwange change the kernel parameters to nosilent

[08:07] <kravlin> chadeldridge: I already told him to.
[08:07] <getBoa> OmegaConsole did u get it ?
[08:07] <Aaron> pike_: how can i do that if i cant get onto ubunto i am on windows right now
[08:07] <yondie> as ubuntu comes with magnificent auto tab completion even in command
[08:08] <Aaron> kravlin: whats that.. keep in mind im on windows right now
[08:08] <banlieue> is there any way outside compiz/beryl allowing transparency on windows in ubuntu gnome?
[08:08] <chadeldridge> george:  ok .. so you need to get xserver-org installed then .. thats where you were when i started with this and sudo apt-get install xserver-org is failing .. correct ?
[08:08] <george> chadeldridge yes
[08:08] <pike_> Aaron: if it is just an x problem you can boot and when you get the error alt-ctrl-f2 and login
[08:08] <chadeldridge> george:  can you give me the error message you are getting from the xserver install ?
[08:08] <pike_> Aaron: the gui isnt essential
[08:09] <florian> hello at all

[08:15] <geekkit> fuzzy_logic: well actually i didn't ask for anything ... you were helping someone else but it's useful to me :-)
[08:16] <fuzzy_logic> geekkit: yes i understand :)
[08:16] <fuzzy_logic> geekkit: maybe you can help me now? :P
[08:16] <steel_lady> there is a problem that still nobody managed to help me solve: the level of my sound output. Sometimes it is just mute. Dometimes I plug in headphones and speaker doesn't mute and all variation of this kind of things. This is very annoying since I like to listen to music at work :-(
[08:16] <weirdbro> If anyone has XaoS, the fractal viewer installed, can they check if their copy can access the help files?
[08:16] <kravlin> aaron: Its black and white. You can type words and execute commands but you can
[08:16] <geekkit> fuzzy_logic: what's up? i'll try
[08:16] <Aaron> kravlin: yeah but what do i do there and what do i type or w/e
[08:16] <kravlin> you type: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:16] <fuzzy_logic> geekkit: i have a new sony dsc-w90 digital camera, but it's not recognized by ubuntu.. how can i make ubuntu recognize it? :)
[08:17] <Ivis> If i use ubuntu now i can install Gentoo and use ubuntu and gentoo?
[08:17] <kravlin> aaron: you type: sudo "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" (Everything inside those quotes)
[08:17] <bdrf> Is it possible to control directly the bits sent out on an ethernet card?
[08:17] <Veinor> I have an HP pavilion dv9000. When I plug a pair of headphones into the headphone jack, the sound still comes out of the regular speakers. The same pair of headphones in the same jack works just fine on windows. Am I missing some drivers or something?
[08:17] <sx66> K-Ryan: where do I find power management properties for laptops? I have installed power management, and laptop battery from the add/remove, but I can not find where it has been located in the menus
[08:17] <geekkit> fuzzy_logic: so when you plug it in and you turn on the camera and put the camera in a transfer mode, nothing happens?
[08:17] <jonah_> hi i've installed a new sata second drive on feisty and just wondered how to set permissions so i can drag stuff onto it without being root?

[08:18] <Devyll> anybody knows how can I start vnc4server ????
[08:18] <crabgrass> how can i force cleaning-up of zombies?
[08:18] <geekkit> fuzzy_logic: many cameras have to go into a transfer mode ... my wife's has to be on the "display gallery" mode
[08:19] <geekkit> crabgrass: go to the system monitor and kill the processes there
[08:19] <pike_> Devyll: vnc4server -kill :1   is one way then just run vnc4server again
[08:19] <fuzzy_logic> geekkit: yes, now it works.. thanks a lot!! you are my hero :P
[08:19] <Chip> When I try to extract the UT2004 linux demo .run.gz file it says "unexpected end of file" can anyone help me?
[08:19] <crabgrass> geekkit: can't kill it, it's a zombie.
[08:19] <geekkit> fuzzy_logic: :-)
[08:19] <crabgrass> Chip: you probably have to redownload it
[08:19] <Chip> i did once
[08:19] <Aaron> kravlin: is there anyway to private chat on this
[08:19] <steel_lady> there is a problem that still nobody managed to help me solve: the level of my sound output. Sometimes it is just mute. Dometimes I plug in headphones and speaker doesn't mute and all variation of this kind of things. This is very annoying since I like to listen to music at work :-(
[08:19] <Chip> from another source
[08:20] <kravlin> aaron: Here's the steps. Boot into Ubuntu. When it gives you a command line type these words without the quotes "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" thats it. its a guided tour.
[08:20] <geekkit> crabgrass: a process can be killed. you just have to choose it either at the command line or within the gui
[08:20] <Chip> i guess i'll redownload yet again
[08:20] <geekkit> crabgrass: you may need to use sudo
[08:20] <Aaron> kravlin: will it tell me what to do in stapes
[08:20] <Veinor> I have an HP pavilion dv9000. When I plug a pair of headphones into the headphone jack, the sound still comes out of the regular speakers. The same pair of headphones in the same jack works just fine on windows. Am I missing some drivers or something?
[08:20] <Aaron> ?
[08:20] <kravlin> aaron: yes. its a guided process.
[08:21] <crabgrass> geekkit: gksudo system-monitor ?
[08:21] <Aaron> k ty if i have problems ill be back
[08:21] <kravlin> sounds good.
[08:21] <Aaron> do i need to do that alt control f2 thing
[08:21] <geekkit> crabgrass: yes ... if a system process is a zombie then you may need to be in super user mode ... but user processes should be killable withouth going into sudo ... just be *very* careful what you kill
[08:22] <crabgrass> geekkit: i'm just trying to tidy up my system, 3 days up and 68 zombies
[08:23] <feross> hey, to remove any line in a text file that has a "!" in it what is the sed command? sed -e '/\!/d' infile > outfile   <--that didn't work :/

[08:24] <geekkit> crabgrass: hmmm that's strange. what processes are they?
[08:24] <crabgrass> i'd heard there was a cron job out there to periodically clean up zombies, im wondering if that can be triggered
[08:24] <Chip> what's a zombie?
[08:24] <blithen> what's the uninstall command for the terminal?
[08:24] <Agrajag> a process that won't die

[08:29] <swine> No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:0:2:1) found
[08:29] <swine> what does this mean ?
[08:30] <chadeldridge> ubertastic: does vlc actually do buffering correctly so the video doesnt get all hosed when you skip ahead ?
[08:30] <geekkit> crabgrass: sorry ... i had a link just about that but i seem to have lost it .. sorry.  cron will but the bigger problem is finding out which program or programs that are creating zombies ... that really should be your focus. that's a lot of zombies in 3 days
[08:31] <profoX`> nevermind, its solved
[08:31] <aldaek> im trying to install ubuntu/feisty onto a computer and a couple of questions came up. it said i need to get headers for feisty and the file i need. i got the file i needed, how do i get the headers... from cd? and two... i though there was modular kernel format. cant we just do that instead? if not, what happened to it? .... ok 3 questions
[08:31] <Stwange> where do I put new fonts?
[08:32] <jonah_> hi can anyone help me please, i've installed a second hard drive to use for backing up files and stuff, it's mounted etc but not sure how to make it writeable for my user?
[08:32] <PriceChild> Stwange, ~/.fonts
[08:32] <Stwange> cheers
[08:32] <Stwange> jonah_: what FS is it?
[08:33] <jonah_> Stwange, ext3
[08:33] <t2> hi,  if i add an extra graphics card (PCI) to connect a second monitor through DVI... then how will the 2 graphic cards and process graphics for the 2 monitors ?
[08:34] <swine> ANYONE ?
[08:34] <Stwange> PriceChild: that directory doesn't exist, do I make it?
[08:34] <PriceChild> Stwange, would make sense :)
[08:34] <Ubertastic> Anyone know, or have an idea, why my audio (in 7.04) sounds utterly terrible? I mean I know this is an integrated card, but it sounded much better in Windows. Any ideas? If I go to a certain volume level, the sound goes very distorted.
[08:34] <dragonx> hi there, i'm trying to mount a CDROM volume created w/ windows xp as a backup.  the mount command fails.. unknown FS
[08:35] <dragonx> i know there's a simplistic explanation to this
[08:35] <yell0w> vfat ?
[08:35] <genii> dragonx: Likely that you need to add udf as a possible filesystem for the cdrom in your fstab
[08:35] <dragonx> genii.. thanks
[08:35] <PriceChild> dragonx, did you finish the cd? or keep it as one you could write to as needed...?
[08:36] <jos> WITCH AMSN IS TESTING
[08:36] <dragonx> no, it should be finished
[08:36] <epsys> how do you burn cd to cd (direct with two drives)?

[08:37] <rey__> ciao a tutti
[08:37] <Weiss> Ubertastic: try altering the gain structure: i get bad sound with PCM turned above 80%, regardless of what the master is doing
[08:37] <epsys> yes yes I know all that, but is there a terminal command to do what I want?
[08:37] <Veinor> I have an HP pavilion dv9000. When I plug a pair of headphones into the headphone jack, the sound still comes out of the regular speakers. The same pair of headphones in the same jack works just fine on windows. Am I missing some drivers or something?

[08:38] <dilligafftw> I'm trying to install xubuntu on to an old IBM Aptiva 2170.The disc loads fine and I can see the first screen with all the menu options but when I try to install the system reboots and won't install. it's driving me crazy. Any help is greatly appreciated.
[08:38] <Ubertastic> Weiss: I'm no professional, I've been running Ubuntu for about four days. Mind going into more detail?
[08:38] <epsys> hmm genii perhaps that'd work

[08:39] <mariocesar_bo> hi, how can I set an ubuntu repo on my pc, without apache ?
[08:39] <Pirate_Hunter> !torrents
[08:39] <ubotu> Torrent downloads for the Ubuntu ISOs are available on all the download pages. For Feisty: http://releases.ubuntu.com/feisty/ (CDs) or http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/7.04/release/ (DVDs)
[08:39] <epsys> torrent sucks
[08:39] <epsys> imo
[08:40] <Aaron> k
[08:40] <T-Connect> Torrent doesn't sucks.
[08:40] <Weiss> Ubertastic: if you amplify any signal too much at any stage, you'll get clipping (a harsh metally/crackly sound). if "PCM" is too high, the signal can clip before it's reached the final "Master" stage, so no matter what "Master" is at, it'll sound bad.  the solution for me was to turn PCM down to 80% (where the crackling disappeared) and control the volume with "Master" only. i suspect your problem is a variant of this
[08:40] <T-Connect> Aaron from Mame?
[08:40] <DaltonS> epsys, why would torrents suck? A good client has hash checking, plus if it's a legal torrent you can EASILY pull one file from multiple sources (I've downloaded a DVD iso in under 45 mins) try doing that without torrents.
[08:40] <Aaron> no
[08:40] <banlieue> is there any way outside compiz/beryl allowing transparency on windows in ubuntu gnome?
[08:40] <Aaron> hey who helped me
[08:41] <Aaron> befire
[08:41] <Pirate_Hunter> Is it possible to run Feisty from a DVD instead of a CD? Would it still run & install properly?
[08:41] <swine> is it even possible to do dual head with intel 945 ?
[08:41] <DaltonS> Pirate_Hunter, the CD type shouldn't matter as long as the files are correct.
[08:41] <aldaek> yes. i contine to get live DVDs from a magazine. they included a feisty release soon
[08:42] <Lunks> Where do the mldonkey config files are when setting it to run at startup?
[08:42] <banlieue> as a third confirmation, it will work fine on a DVD
[08:42] <Lunks> I can't find them!
[08:42] <banlieue> waste of space though ;)
[08:42] <nomic> anyone know how to share a printer which is connected to one client on the wireless?
[08:42] <swine> does anyone in this channel ever help ? :(
[08:42] <Pirate_Hunter> DaltonS: thats what I thought even knowing i was advised to use a CD instead of DVD
[08:42] <PriceChild> !patience | swine

[08:42] <Bartzy> hi :)
[08:42] <swine> PriceChild, i've been patient for 30 mins
[08:42] <swine> i just get ignored
[08:42] <PriceChild> swine, not very long :)
[08:42] <PriceChild> No-one is ignoring you!!!
[08:42] <PriceChild> they just don't know the answer
[08:42] <aldaek> i was planning on making a dvd repository on dvd. but required multiple dvd's
[08:42] <DaltonS> Pirate_Hunter, I would advice you to do so too, but only because CD's are way cheaper :D
[08:43] <Lunks> Where do the mldonkey config files are when setting it to run at startup?
[08:43] <PriceChild> swine, I'd say that's one of the easiest cards to dual head with... or "should be"
[08:43] <banlieue> swine: you could consider buying Microsoft Windows, they come with a support call centre :] 
[08:43] <Pirate_Hunter> swine: dont complain ask your quetsion again when there are no responses
[08:43] <PriceChild> swine, because it is intel, and open source graphics card.

[08:43] <PriceChild> swine, have you tried at all?
[08:43] <swine> PriceChild, well it's not working
[08:43] <swine> PriceChild, yes
[08:43] <PriceChild> swine, what have you tried?
[08:43] <jos> checking tcl build dir... configure: error: Unable to find Tcl
[08:43] <jos> amsn
[08:43] <genii> swine When there are no (semi)immediate answers to a question, it usually means that either no one here has the answer, or perhaps it is a new issue which needs diagnosing if someone feels up to it
[08:43] <jos> ?
[08:43] <Bartzy> I need some help... I had a windows XP installation and I installed ubuntu 7,04 on another partition... (i'm in ubuntu now). now, when I choose ubuntu in grub list, it's good. but when I choose windows xp pro, it just says Starting Up and does nothing !
[08:43] <jonah_> hi how do i add my second drive so that it's under my user group, at moment it says root under permissions on right click properties menu, but it won't let me change it
[08:43] <PriceChild> jos, then install libtcl-whatever
[08:44] <swine> PriceChild, i've followed the instructions in the howto insofar as they appear to be applicable, used some pre-existing configs
[08:44] <Ubertastic> Weiss: Thanks, I will try. Any way to get a more accurate description of the volume level? These slider bars are not much use.
[08:44] <PriceChild> swine, "the howto"?
[08:44] <swine> PriceChild, it only recognizes the internal monitor
[08:44] <Pirate_Hunter> DaltonS: I stopped using CDs along time ago, it is actually cheaper to get DVDs nowadays at least where I live and they are more useful in my opinion
[08:44] <swine> PriceChild, yes, there is one for xfree86
[08:44] <swine> and xinerama
[08:44] <swine> but it appears to be a bit outdated
[08:44] <banlieue> is there any way outside compiz/beryl allowing transparency on windows in ubuntu gnome?
[08:44] <PriceChild> swine, "the howto" ?
[08:44] <palomer> hello
[08:44] <palomer> I want texlive 2007
[08:44] <Ahmed-Bahaa> any pythoneers out there ?
[08:44] <PriceChild> swine, might help if you showed us it
[08:44] <palomer> but it's not in my repository
[08:44] <palomer> what to do?
[08:44] <fabvius> /stats p
[08:45] <genii> Pirate_Hunter: I keep most of my backups now on DVD+RW
[08:45] <swine> PriceChild, i can paste my whole x,org config
[08:45] <swine> PriceChild, perhaps that'll be easier
[08:45] <kersinc> hola amigos
[08:45] <jos>  sudo apt-get install  libtc wont instal
[08:45] <OuZo> how do i get the uuid of a unmounted hard drive? thanks
[08:45] <DaltonS> Pirate_Hunter, it should be fine. As long as you don't mind the price associated with the media.
[08:45] <Weiss> Ubertastic: alsamixer is probably what you want
[08:45] <PriceChild> jos, that's not even close to what i suggested you install... Why are you compiling this anyway? its in the repos - sudo apt-get install amsn
[08:45] <jos> then install libtcl-whatever????

[08:47] <banlieue> Pirate_Hunter: if you can live with the thought of wasting all that space, go ahead! I wouldn't be able to sleep at night.
[08:47] <Pirate_Hunter> jos: are you trying to install amsn and cant find tcl??
[08:47] <xamox> how can I fix video to play in beryl? for instance it's playing but nothing is on the display, but if I switch beryl it is. I am using VLC. I'm guessing it has something to do with overlay, but don't know how to correct it, any input?
[08:47] <banlieue> Agrajag: that was my alternative hypothesis :P
[08:47] <xamox> switch beryl off*
[08:47] <banlieue> was finding it rather odd to not have those !commands available for everyone to use in a channel like this anyway :P
[08:48] <FakeOutdoorsman> what packages are required for printing?  i've installed a custom, stripped down version of ubuntu.
[08:48] <DaltonS> Bartzy, are you sure you didn't install any new drivers before the Ubuntu install? If you installed *anything* (besides ubuntu) you should press f8 while booting into XP and try some of the boot options like "last known good config" or "safe mode" if all else fails.
[08:48] <genii> OuZo:  I think either ls /dev/disk/by-uuid  or blkid   you will need to do man blkid to see syntax possibly
[08:48] <swine> PriceChild, still there ?
[08:48] <ciscoman> hey all
[08:48] <AusME> I'm trying to optimize Ubuntu. I've done what I can with the xorg.conf and with the video card in general. Anyone else have any other recommendations? (I'm trying to reduce general ram usage and increase fps in an emu)
[08:48] <kersinc> pero no tengo esa occion de conectarme a servidores en espaol
[08:48] <checkergrrl> hey...once i install gnochm where does it go?
[08:48] <Pirate_Hunter> banlieue: waste space? heck I buy DVD_RW cause I have a lot to save or I plan to use the DVD for other things. I only get DVD-R for backups so i aint wasting space
[08:48] <PriceChild> swine, yes
[08:49] <swine> what's a good pastebin ?
[08:49] <swine> www.pastebin.com is dead
[08:49] <PriceChild> !paste | swine
[08:49] <ubotu> swine: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[08:49] <DaltonS> Bartzy, and that doesn't mean seconds before the Ubuntu install. I mean if you installed anything before the last restart, you should try f8.
[08:49] <KillerCow> hey guys, small nooby question for yous
[08:49] <banlieue> xamox: I know it definitely is not an answer to your question but I do feel beryl is not really worth running at default as it comes with too many problems to make up for the fancy graphics
[08:49] <Agrajag> kersinc: /join #ubuntu-es, no hablamos espanol aqui
[08:49] <banlieue> xamox: you should consider not running beryl instead ;)
[08:49] <PriceChild> swine, please remember... I have never done dual head on linux. And I asked to see what guide you were following.

[08:52] <PriceChild> swine, btw in Gutsy you'll have a beautiful gui to do this for you :) But that's in sep
[08:52] <banlieue> ciscoman: it seems so, but i don't think it's the channel to blame
[08:52] <DaltonS> Bartzy, I don't know much about GRUB
[08:52] <ciscoman> :(
[08:52] <swine> PriceChild, there already is a second screen section
[08:52] <KillerCow> anyone? this is a real quicky.... :| whats the command to list directory contents, page-by-page?? rather than spilling the whole thing in a oner??
[08:52] <ciscoman> ok second question
[08:52] <Pirate_Hunter> ciscoman: what is your question?
[08:52] <FakeOutdoorsman> KillerCow: ls -al | less
[08:52] <swine> PriceChild, unless i'm missing something
[08:52] <PriceChild> swine, look at line 186
[08:52] <KillerCow> thank you :)
[08:52] <PriceChild> swine, in that section, you only reference "Default Screen"
[08:52] <swine> Section "ServerLayout"
[08:52] <FakeOutdoorsman> KillerCow: or ls -al | more

[08:53] <PriceChild> swine, that means that the section: Screen "Extern" doesn't get used whatsoever
[08:53] <swine> PriceChild, let me try it ..
[08:53] <ciscoman> do you know Remote Administrator for windows? I need Remote Adminstrator client for ubuntu :)
[08:53] <Bartzy> okay.. so I'll ask everyone
[08:53] <ciscoman> it's like VNC

[08:53] <genii> ciscoman: There is a rdc for linux

[08:54] <FakeOutdoorsman> dilligafftw: are you using the alternate install disc?
[08:54] <DaltonS> ciscoman, open terminal and type rdekstop help
[08:54] <Bartzy> I need help people :) - I have my grub installed on a ntfs partition (I think). Is that possible ? how do I uninstall grub from its current location and install it again in the root partition, without installing ubuntu all over again ?
[08:54] <banlieue> rdesktop*
[08:54] <ciscoman> yes but RDC is for Remote desktop
[08:54] <DaltonS> banlieue, :D
[08:54] <ciscoman> and i need for Remote Administrator software ;)
[08:54] <dilligafftw> FO yes I'm using the laternative disc
[08:54] <PriceChild> Bartzy, it shuoldn't be installed on either... it should be installed at the start of the drive
[08:54] <Bartzy> I dont understand...
[08:54] <PriceChild> Bartzy, why do you think its installed on a partition and not the start of drive?
[08:54] <epsy> hello
[08:55] <Pirate_Hunter> Bartzy: read what obutu tell you and follow the links if you did follow the first one there should be something about super GRUB or something similar
[08:55] <Pirate_Hunter> !grub

[08:55] <FakeOutdoorsman> dilligafftw: did you check the integrity of the disc?
[08:55] <PriceChild> Bartzy, when the bios loads, it reads the "master boot record" at the start of the drive (where grub is installed) and that then says what next to do. The bios doesn't read the partitions
[08:55] <swine> PriceChild, nope, but i have a different error now ...
[08:55] <DaltonS> ciscoman, I don't understand what you are asking...
[08:55] <epsy>  on boot it says error 15 file not found 
[08:55] <PriceChild> swine, which is...?
[08:55] <epsy> then he get the menu

[08:55] <sam_> on iwlist eth1 scan my laptop says: "Interface does'nt support scanning: NW is down". What to do?
[08:55] <Pirate_Hunter> epsy: you too should read obutu thats a GRUB problem
[08:56] <dilligafftw> FO: from the menu list - check cd for defects?
[08:56] <DaltonS> ciscoman, so you need to go from a Linux computer into a Windows or Windows into Linux?
[08:56] <epsy> !more Pirate_Hunter
[08:56] <PriceChild> swine, change the end of 157 to "External"
[08:57] <FakeOutdoorsman> dilligafftw: yes
[08:57] <swine> PriceChild, oops :)
[08:57] <Pirate_Hunter> epsy: What is that supposed to mean ~_~"
[08:57] <OmegaCenti> how do I know if I have certain sound systems.
[08:57] <dilligafftw> FO: computer reboots on that option too
[08:57] <OuZo> which script do i need to make xchat not show when someone joins or leaves the channel? thanks
[08:57] <banlieue> is there a way outside compiz/beryl to achieve window transparency in ubuntu gnome?
[08:57] <Bartzy> PriceChild, Can I talk to you in private ?
[08:57] <dilligafftw> FO: when I burnt the cd I did verify the data
[08:57] <epsy> Pirate_Hunter, he just installed ubuntu, he didn't installed wingblows or whatever
[08:57] <OmegaCenti> how do I test for sound
[08:57] <zAo^> banlieue, use xcompmgr
[08:57] <PriceChild> swine, again, i don't know if this will eventually work, i've never done it before. I'm just pointing out what doesn't seem to look right based on what you've tried
[08:57] <ciscoman> from linux to windows but not SSH & VNC & Remote Desktop (WIndows) .. i need for Remote Administrator software
[08:57] <OmegaCenti> what files control sound... what is artsd...
[08:57] <FakeOutdoorsman> dilligafftw: how much ram does the laptop have?
[08:57] <zAo^> Zambezi
[08:57] <zAo^> sorry
[08:58] <swine> PriceChild, now i'm back to the original error
[08:58] <OmegaCenti> why is it when I kill all artsd and esd they pop back up in a little bit of time?
[08:58] <PriceChild> swine, which is?
[08:58] <swine> PriceChild, (WW) I810: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:0:2:1) found
[08:58] <clayg> anyone here play/use "mugen"?
[08:58] <banlieue> oh, alpha software
[08:58] <Pirate_Hunter> epsy: he only installed ubuntu and already received error 15, if thats the case and he is nto dual booting than clean install make sure the CD is not faulty
[08:58] <swine> PriceChild, which may or may not matter according to what i've read on google
[08:58] <DaltonS> ciscoman, www.logmein.com has free tools to do that, but the applet only runs on Windows (as far as I know) but you can log in and controll a windows comp from any web browser.
[08:58] <dilligafftw> FO: 256 M
[08:58] <OmegaCenti> Did I hear i810 problems?! <perks up ears>
[08:58] <swine> OmegaCenti, yes :(
[08:58] <PriceChild> OmegaCenti, swine ;)
[08:58] <epsy> he doesn't have multiboot
[08:59] <epsy> in fact i don't know why grub was installed
[08:59] <swine> OmegaCenti, i can't get multi-head working
[08:59] <OmegaCenti> swine: explain to me your situation. I have had quite a lot of experience with i810
[08:59] <PriceChild> swine, I don't know sorry...
[08:59] <OmegaCenti> swine: and with that question you just dashed my "expertise"
[08:59] <FakeOutdoorsman> dilligafftw: that should work.  ive installed on 128...  i don't know why yours is rebooting.
[08:59] <tbuss> is there a way to add a 'Force Quit' option to the right click context menu?
[08:59] <OmegaCenti> I don't know what multi-head is
[08:59] <OmegaCenti> !multi-head
[08:59] <ciscoman> aaah thx a lot ;)
[08:59] <swine> OmegaCenti, multiple monitors
[08:59] <Bartzy> PriceChild: I have a SATA disk and a IDE DISK... when I configure the bios to boot from the SATA disk (linux installed there with windows... on 2 different partitions ofcourse), nothing loads. when I boot from IDE drive, the grub loads and everything is fine if I load ubuntu. If I try to load windows xp, it says "Starting Up" in a black screen and stays like that.
[08:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about multi-head - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:59] <ciscoman> that's what i need ;)
[08:59] <swine> OmegaCenti, a primary and a secondary display in my ace
[08:59] <swine> er case
[09:00] <robby> i think i blew my bass amp...:(
[09:00] <swine> OmegaCenti, also known as Xinerama
[09:00] <OmegaCenti> swine: with different desktop sessions or one at a time?
[09:00] <epsy> Pirate_Hunter, btw, boot is on another partition than /
[09:00] <PriceChild> Bartzy, ok these are two different problems.
[09:00] <banlieue> robby: does it run ubuntu? ;o
[09:00] <DaltonS> ciscoman, use the "free" version, unless there are specific things you need from the other versions.
[09:00] <swine> OmegaCenti, basically it's treated as one large display
[09:00] <OmegaCenti> swine: what does it NOT do right now, currently.
[09:00] <dilligafftw> FO: I tried adding the commmand expert acpi=off but that didn't work. Don't know if I added it properly or in the right place
[09:00] <PriceChild> Bartzy, to start with, you need to install grub onto the sata disk if you want to boot off it
[09:00] <Pirate_Hunter> epsy: listen he is installing to an empty HD, he has no data that he will lose, ubuntu didnt install properly meaning either the CD is faulty or the chosen options are wrong, do a clean install that is better than me going through different methods of correcting GRUB when he is not dual booting
[09:00] <swine> OmegaCenti, doesn't ouput anything at all to the second display
[09:01] <robby> lol.. its with me so yeah sure...
[09:01] <OmegaCenti> swine: your monitor doesn't even say anything like: vsync out of range or anything? no signal?
[09:01] <epsy> Pirate_Hunter, he had wingblows on it but wished to remove it
[09:01] <T-Connect> Bartzy You can't install Ubuntu on Master hard drive when a Slave hard drive is hookup. It have to be install on Slave.
[09:01] <OmegaCenti> hold on I have to ask all my questions again...
[09:01] <zAo^> why is /list not working on freenode!?
[09:01] <OmegaCenti> how do I know if I have certain sound systems.
[09:01] <OmegaCenti> how do I test for sound
[09:01] <osxdude|laptop> Hello, I want to repartition a disk. It is not the disk that ubuntu is on. It is my "home folder" disk." It has XP on it, and I want to move the partition. Each time, however, the simulation fails. It says at the end:
[09:01] <osxdude|laptop>  ERROR: Extended record needed (1168>1024), not yet supported!
[09:01] <osxdude|laptop> Please try to free less space.
[09:01] <Bartzy> PriceChild - but I CAN boot ubuntu (which is in the SATA disk) right now... You are saying that if I install grub on the SATA disk, XP will boot too ?
[09:01] <OmegaCenti> what files control sound... what is artsd...
[09:01] <tbuss> is there a way to add a 'Force Quit' option to the right click context menu?
[09:01] <Bartzy> T-Connect, I didn't understand. what's hookup ?
[09:02] <OmegaCenti> why is it when I kill all artsd and esd they pop back up in a little bit of time?
[09:02] <epsy> hm
[09:02] <epsy> i think i'ill install him grub manually
[09:02] <OmegaCenti> swine: did you see last commend directed to you?
[09:02] <zAo^> OmegaCenti arts is a soundsystem (mainly for KDE), the "d" is for daemon
[09:02] <petervk> osxdude|laptop: what partition program are you using?
[09:02] <rootkashe2088> hi
[09:02] <PriceChild> Bartzy, there is a problem with windows in that if you boot grub on one disk, which then tells windows to boot frm another disk... that windows doesn't like it.
[09:02] <Pirate_Hunter> epsy: I dont get you he deleted windows and instaled ubuntu, he didnt tell ubuntu to format the disk or he did format it but the MRB was still there pointing at the old partition in that case ubunto insatlled GRUB, but if he has nothing to lose just do another clean install it takes less than 30min
[09:02] <OmegaCenti> zAo^: do I need it?
[09:02] <PriceChild> Bartzy, this can be fixed... just trying to find the code
[09:02] <T-Connect> Barty many hard drives that you hookup?
[09:03] <OmegaCenti> swine: do you have 2 i810 graphics cards?
[09:03] <osxdude|laptop> petervk: GParted. I'll look at different ones if GParted will not work...
[09:03] <rootkashe2088> esmeralda estas hay
[09:03] <swine> OmegaCenti, no, it's a single card
[09:03] <swine> OmegaCenti, laptop
[09:03] <OmegaCenti> but it has two ports?
[09:03] <swine> OmegaCenti, and no, nothing it out of sync
[09:03] <OmegaCenti> two vga?
[09:03] <swine> OmegaCenti, yes
[09:03] <Pirate_Hunter> osxdude|laptop: you cna use gparted live cd iof its a diferent HD and not you root
[09:03] <epsy> Pirate_Hunter, he did :/
[09:03] <swine> no, DVI
[09:03] <Bartzy> T-Connect, what does hookup mean ?
[09:03] <petervk> osxdude|laptop: the one in ubuntu or the gparted live cd?
[09:03] <swine> OmegaCenti, DVI
[09:03] <OuZo> how do i add a environment variable? thanks
[09:03] <dilligafftw> FakeOutdoorsman: tried this fix https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/17667
[09:03] <OmegaCenti> swine: alright, could you give model of laptop?
[09:03] <T-Connect> Oh then you just have 1 hard drive in your computer.
[09:04] <Bartzy> PriceChild, thanks.... You mean the code of uninstalling grub on the IDE and reinstalling it on the SATA ?
[09:04] <swine> OmegaCenti, dell latitude d520
[09:04] <Bartzy> T-Connect, I have 3 physical hard drives in my computer
[09:04] <OmegaCenti> swine: also, a pastebin of your x log and your lspci and your lsmod would be helpful
[09:04] <petervk> osxdude|laptop: This is the best version to use: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[09:04] <PriceChild> Bartzy, no... let me start at the start just to check i understand properly
[09:04] <osxdude|laptop> Pirate_Hunter: Wow, that's exactly what I'm doing. You are a mind reader
[09:04] <osxdude|laptop> petervk: the one in ubuntu
[09:04] <PriceChild> Bartzy, you boot off of ide and linux works fine.
[09:04] <robby> Wow, I great little program for Linux would be to convert MS cmd to Linux.
[09:04] <PriceChild> Bartzy, is windows installed on the sata?
[09:04] <Bartzy> PriceChild : yep
[09:04] <Bartzy> PriceChild, Yeah, on an ntfs partition
[09:05] <Bartzy> PriceChild, ubuntu installed on the sata aswell
[09:05] <PriceChild> Bartzy, are you happy booting off of the ide or want to change that to sata?
[09:05] <T-Connect> I had that problem before.
[09:05] <PriceChild> Bartzy, so what's on the ide?
[09:05] <Pirate_Hunter> epsy: ok so youre telling me while i told you to do a new install he has already done it, so he has tried to install it again, best bet the cd, is faulty otherwise you should format the HD not with the ubuntu cd but a boot disk using command fdisk and than install ubuntu again if your certain that the disk is working properly and there no problems with it
[09:05] <Bartzy> PriceChild, on the ide - one ntfs partition with data only
[09:05] <swine> OmegaCenti, there's lsmod http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28838/
[09:05] <FakeOutdoorsman> dilligafftw: looks like you're on the right track.  try booting with the noacpi option instead of acpi=off
[09:05] <Bartzy> PriceChild, If booting of the SATA will fix the boot thingie with windows - I'll be happy :)
[09:05] <OmegaCenti> swine: have you read this yet? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo?highlight=%28monitors%29%7C%28dual%29%7C%28i810%29 Also, please send your xorg.conf
[09:06] <T-Connect> Get a boot error after install Ubuntu?
[09:06] <PriceChild> Bartzy, ok cool... so "all" you need to do is boot a live cd, and follow the instructions from ubotu to install grub onto the sata. It will then fix the problem with booting windows.
[09:06] <PriceChild> !fixgrub > Bartzy
[09:06] <Pirate_Hunter> Bartzy: how come im seeing you again with the same problem as this morning, what has happened now?
[09:06] <Bartzy> PriceChild, okay thanks, how should I uninstall grub on the MBR of the IDE ?
[09:06] <osxdude|laptop> Pirate_Hunter and pertervk: I'm installng QParted (the kde partitioner) not
[09:06] <swine> OmegaCenti, and lspci: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28840/
[09:06] <dilligafftw> FakeOutdoorsman: ok what do I type instead - noacpi?
[09:06] <Bartzy> Pirate_Hunter, It's not the same problem... I already installed ubuntu on the hard drive after this morning :p
[09:07] <FakeOutdoorsman> dilligafftw: heh...nevermind my last comment...i confused myself
[09:07] <petervk> osxdude|laptop: check this out: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=289048
[09:07] <PriceChild> Bartzy, you don't uninstall it... you just overwrite it when needed. It doesn't take space something else would want...
[09:07] <petervk> osxdude|laptop: The partition probably needs to be defragged
[09:07] <Bartzy> PriceChild, So even if I have grub in the IDE MBR, it doesn't matter at all ?
[09:07] <osxdude|laptop> oh...I should do that.
[09:07] <PriceChild> Bartzy, nope
[09:07] <dilligafftw> FakeOutdoorsman: no problem
[09:07] <Bartzy> PriceChild, So why I must boot with the live cd ?
[09:07] <FakeOutdoorsman> dilligafftw: i was looking over my old install and mixed up "noapic" with acpi
[09:07] <petervk> osxdude|laptop: Qparted uses the same parted library that gparted uses so it doesn't have any additional functionality
[09:08] <T-Connect> What is grub?
[09:08] <Pirate_Hunter> osxdude|laptop: sorry didnt get that, youre inside ubuntu insatlling qparted instead of gparted which is the new native partitioner for Feisty is that right, if thats so than it shouldnt be a problem, its all about what your better at using
[09:08] <petervk> T-Connect: Grand Unified Boot Loader
[09:08] <darthmarth37> Does anyone have some idea what might be involved in porting update-grub to an rpm-based system?
[09:08] <Bartzy> PriceChild, it can't be done within ubuntu itself ?
[09:08] <PriceChild> Bartzy, because I don't think its a good idea to do this kind of thing on a mounted partition/drive... If I think about it... it shouldn't make a difference, I'm just wanting to make sure :)
[09:08] <petervk> T-Connect: used to boot linux
[09:08] <petervk> T-Connect: can also boot almost any other OS
[09:08] <T-Connect> Where can I find that on cd?
[09:09] <T-Connect> 7.04
[09:09] <osxdude|laptop> gah, qparted froze
[09:09] <petervk> T-Connect: it's installed as part of ubuntu
[09:09] <Pirate_Hunter> !grub
[09:09] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[09:09] <robby> MS: dir something.exe /s,  ?= in Linux
[09:09] <Bartzy> PriceChild, so if I'm brave (and lazy... :p) can I do it right now without live cd ?
[09:09] <iceque> hi
[09:09] <T-Connect> Ok
[09:09] <petervk> T-Connect: Why are you looking for GRUB?
[09:09] <PriceChild> Bartzy, yes... as I say, I can't remember whether it will be a problem :)
[09:09] <swine> hmm, a new error
[09:09] <swine> AddScreen/ScreenInit failed for driver 1
[09:10] <T-Connect> I just want to know.
[09:10] <OmegaCenti> swine: X system log? xorg.conf?
[09:10] <swine> OmegaCenti, X :1 2> log
[09:10] <swine> :)
[09:10] <Bartzy> PriceChild, okay, thank you very much, I will come back with answers soon :p
[09:10] <OmegaCenti> swine: wha?
[09:11] <OmegaCenti> swine: the one with the 0
[09:11] <swine> OmegaCenti, that's how i generated the log
[09:11] <Bartzy> Btw, how can I check how much free space do I have ?
[09:11] <robby> is xorg.conf to Linux like MSconfig is to Win?
[09:11] <pike_> Bartzy: df -h
[09:11] <petervk> T-Connect: you can get grub by itself, but I would not recommend it. Install it as part of a distro, such as ubuntu
[09:11] <Pirate_Hunter> kk my turn, is there an app that cna emulate dos environment in Feisty it seems mime can't do that which is weird?
[09:11] <Bartzy> thanks pike
[09:11] <iceque> how can i change the permissions for a folder?? chmod????
[09:11] <petervk> robby: No
[09:11] <OmegaCenti> robby: not really.
[09:11] <Pirate_Hunter> !dos
[09:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dos - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:11] <epsy> Pirate_Hunter, freeDOS :p
[09:11] <petervk> robby: xorg.conf is only for the xserver
[09:11] <T-Connect> Oh. I'm tire.
[09:11] <OmegaCenti> swine: have you read this? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo?highlight=%28monitors%29%7C%28dual%29%7C%28i810%29
[09:11] <pike_> iceque: chmod and chown keep in mind if youre wanting to change the subfolders and files to use the -R for recursive
[09:12] <darthmarth37> xorg.conf is like all of Windows's display dialogs in one spot.
[09:12] <Luckye> hey
[09:12] <T-Connect> Nap time.
[09:12] <petervk> robby: msconfig is a lot different
[09:12] <DaltonS> Pirate_Hunter, VMWare can emulate everything from DOS to Vista or Unix to Sparc to Linux to OS X
[09:12] <Pirate_Hunter> epsy: thanx will look into that but i still dont understand why wine wouldnt be able to emulate it
[09:12] <Luckye> is there someone who can help me to use glade?
[09:12] <epsy> Pirate_Hunter, open winecfg
[09:12] <OmegaCenti> swine: down the page is an i810 solution.
[09:12] <scsponger> does anyone know anything about a static ip bug in fiesty?
[09:12] <epsy> there is maybe a DOS mode
[09:12] <petervk> Pirate_Hunter: Wine is windows, not dos
[09:12] <swine> OmegaCenti, it doesn't work
[09:12] <some_dude> Pirate_Hunter : I"ve got a server that runs 15 virtual linux boxes under VMware
[09:12] <pike_> scsponger: what bug?
[09:12] <robby> hmm. im going to look at this xorg.confg real quick
[09:13] <petervk> Pirate_Hunter: dosbox can do dos
[09:13] <Pirate_Hunter> DaltonS :i need to emulate Dos inside Feisty the app runs as DOs and wine wont let me run it even knowing its installed
[09:13] <OmegaCenti> swine: did you see the link up at the very top of the guide? did you read that?
[09:13] <petervk> robby: what are you trying to do?
[09:13] <some_dude> dosemu
[09:13] <some_dude> dosbox ?
[09:13] <banlieue> Pirate_Hunter: try dosbox
[09:13] <robby> learn
[09:13] <banlieue> dosbox.sourceforge.net
[09:13] <DaltonS> Pirate_Hunter, VMWare is Virtualization not emulation :D
[09:13] <Bartzy> Question: I saw that Automatix has an option to make NTFS drives readable/writeable. Is it safe ?
[09:13] <osxdude|laptop> okay something is happening...
[09:13] <epsy> Pirate_Hunter, his cd is fine
[09:13] <scsponger> I statically assign my machine, but it's still getting dhcped an address
[09:14] <swine> OmegaCenti, no, but i've tried both device IDs
[09:14] <petervk> robby: be careful with modifying the xorg.conf as it can kill the GUI and you will be left with command prompt only
[09:14] <pike_> Bartzy: automatix as a rule is unsafe.  or at least unsupported. if ya want ot do that see the following
[09:14] <swine> i'm still not clear which one it should work on
[09:14] <d4rkmonkey> hey, when I try to go to my Optical Drive in ubuntu, it says /dev/hda doesn't exist. I couldn't install off the Live CD with this drive, had to use an external to get to even an xorg error, then i installed off the alternate in the built in optical drive...
[09:14] <Pirate_Hunter> DaltonS: np thx for the correction
[09:14] <pike_> !ntfs-3g | Bartzy
[09:14] <ubotu> Bartzy: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[09:14] <scsponger> I know the networking conf is right
[09:14] <ScottK> Bartzy: Most Ubuntu developers don't think Automatix is safe period, let alone NTFS stuff.
[09:14] <swine> "PCI:0:2:0
[09:14] <swine> or "PCI:0:2:1
[09:14] <some_dude> try not running dhclient
[09:14] <d4rkmonkey> I've tried to manually mount the drive because it doesn't auto mount with no luck...
[09:14] <d4rkmonkey> does anyone know how I can get my optical drive working?
[09:14] <Bartzy> pike_ , is it safe for the ntfs data ?
[09:15] <Bartzy> ScottK, why not ?
[09:15] <robby> can i just pipe its content to say a txt file so i dont mess with the actuall file itsel?
[09:15] <petervk> ScottK: ntfs-3g is considered safe by it's developers
[09:15] <ScottK> For a start it sigkills dpkg when it tries to install stuff which may or may not cause problems and is certainly not how stuff you be done.
[09:15] <d4rkmonkey> robby,  why don't you just create a backup first?
[09:15] <Pirate_Hunter> epsy: than when he formated the hd thorugh the CD, im assuming it didnt do it properly instead filesystem stil picks up the previous installed OS which means a nice clean full format will erase everything, can you get your hand on win 98 bootdisk it does the job
[09:15] <petervk> robby:
[09:15] <Bartzy> ScottK , How else can I see popular packages for linux/ubuntu ?
[09:15] <ScottK> petervk: I was referring to Automatix.
[09:15] <petervk> robby: yeah
[09:15] <swine> ok, this is Q@#@@# broken
[09:16] <petervk> ScottK: ok.
[09:16] <petervk> ScottK: Automatix = not good
[09:16] <robby> or bkup
[09:16] <d4rkmonkey> hey, when I try to go to my Optical Drive in ubuntu, it says /dev/hda doesn't exist. I couldn't install off the Live CD with this drive, had to use an external to get to even an xorg error, then i installed off the alternate in the built in optical drive...
[09:16] <Pirate_Hunter> epsy: there is no point trying to fix Grub if there is no other OS to boot from just clean the hd completely
[09:16] <d4rkmonkey> does anyone know how I can get my optical drive working?
[09:16] <vox754> d4rkmonkey, have you tested the drive in WIndows or other Operating system?
[09:16] <ScottK> Bartzy: Almost everything Automatix installs can be gotten through the regular repositories.
[09:16] <pike_> Bartzy: it will prob be fine but backup first if you cannot afford to lose something
[09:16] <swine> HATE HATE HATE
[09:16] <pike_> Bartzy: i do not trust automatix though
[09:16] <genii> d4rkmonkey: The devices no longer correspond to hda hdb etc but rather sda sdb etc
[09:16] <petervk> robby: if you open it as a normal user it will be read only, so thats fine.
[09:16] <d4rkmonkey> vox754, it works fine in windows, but I deleted my windows partition
[09:17] <OmegaCenti> swine: your xorg.conf?
[09:17] <robby> good point i can't alter it
[09:17] <Bartzy> ScottK, what's repositories, and how do I see it ? sorry, I'm VERY new to linux
[09:17] <petervk> robby: just know what you are doing when you run a sudo command
[09:17] <d4rkmonkey> genii, how would I find out what my optical drive is? I didn't set it to hda, that was Feisty...
[09:17] <petervk> robby: yeah.
[09:17] <ScottK> Bartzy: Automatix also installs stuff in non-standard locations, so even if it works, then next time you try to upgrade you may well have serious problems.
[09:17] <petervk> d4rkmonkey: look in /media
[09:17] <swine> OmegaCenti, all these docs are somewhat diffrenet too
[09:18] <swine> OmegaCenti, one sec
[09:18] <Bartzy> ScottK, damn.. I just installed a bunch of stuff in automatix :\
[09:18] <d4rkmonkey> petervk, in /media isn't there /cdrom and /cdrom0? both of them don't work
[09:18] <Pirate_Hunter> ScottK: thats true automatix not good at all unless youre nto planning to upgrade because youll have incompatbilities with the new OS and it uses different methods for installing apps from sources
[09:18] <ScottK> Bartzy: OK.  I'm probably not the best person to answer your question as I mostly use command line tools and not gui stuff.
[09:18] <genii> d4rkmonkey: Physically on the arrangement of ribbons and so on, is the drive master on first IDE? Slave? Master on 2nd IDE? slave? etc
[09:18] <cjfp> i have accounts on two different ubuntu machines, both with the same version of svn, but one of the svn binaries ("older") cannot work with working copies modified by the other one ("newer")
[09:18] <pike_> Bartzy: automatix is basically well intentioned and a decent group but they are not exp enough imo to do things the way they should
[09:18] <neztiti> how 2 empty root files deleted from the trash???
[09:18] <cheeser> so I can install sun-java6-jdk just fine which is what I want, but when I try to install tomcat5.5, it wants to install gcj which is exactly what I don't want.  how do I tell apt-get to never install gcj?
[09:18] <d4rkmonkey> genii, no idea, its a laptop and I'm not going to take it apart
[09:18] <Bartzy> ScottK, so if you want info about a package, where do you get it ?
[09:18] <cjfp> http://rafb.net/p/KH0Lv312.html
[09:19] <swine> !pastebin
[09:19] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:19] <d4rkmonkey> genii, why are you talking about slave and stuff? its a Optical drive, CD/DVD not harddrive...
[09:19] <Chip> Okay, this is my third download of the UT2004 linux demo file from 2 sites and everytime I try to extract it I get a "unexpected end of file" error, what's wrong?
[09:19] <ScottK> Bartzy: Ask someone else for help on that as I don't use the gui tools for it.
[09:19] <andylockran> what python IDE do people recommend on ubuntu?
[09:19] <cjfp> swine: rafb is no good?
[09:19] <vox754> d4rkmonkey, well, laptop, that is important to mention... broken laptop.
[09:19] <genii> d4rkmonkey: It still uses the hard drive controller and will be set to be a master or slave on some channel
[09:19] <d4rkmonkey> vox754, its not broken.
[09:19] <neztiti> how 2 empty root files deleted from the trash???
[09:19] <pike_> neztiti: sudo rm -fr ~/.Trash/*   ?
[09:19] <petervk> neztiti: you can navigate to the trash and use sudo rm filename to delete the files
[09:20] <d4rkmonkey> genii, how would I check this without taking apart my laptop?
[09:20] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: whats the file type/extension
[09:20] <ScottK> andylockran: If you want you can use IDLE, but I useually just use a text editor.

[09:20] <neztiti> no its deleted files

[09:20] <OmegaCenti> how would I go about finding out what depends on artsd?
[09:20] <petervk> neztiti: pardon?
[09:21] <petervk> neztiti: you want to undelete?
[09:21] <matju> is there an OpenGL driver supporting ARB for the Intel 910/915 GPU ?

[09:21] <swine> OmegaCenti, http://rafb.net/p/zI0P5P14.html
[09:21] <swine> OmegaCenti, there
[09:21] <genii> d4rkmonkey: Regardless, you can do some other simple things to see. make some dir to mount it under. then do just command mount to see what other devices are already mounted (eg:sda sdb or so on) If you have / on ada then try the mount command with -t iso9660 on sdb  and so on
[09:21] <genii> this with a cd in it
[09:21] <Taffy-nay> hey there, is anybody available to give me some advice re: ubuntu installation
[09:21] <DaltonS> swine, Linux is harder on the front end because you can change anything about your system. Windows on the other hand only let's you change a few things, so the front end is easier to use on a basic level.
[09:21] <pike_> Taffy-nay: ask away
[09:22] <petervk> Taffy-nay: yeah, ask away
[09:22] <OmegaCenti> How would you find out the busid of certain cards?
[09:22] <genii> ada=sda (sp)
[09:22] <robby> So is Linux much larger than Win?
[09:22] <OmegaCenti> swine I need /var/log/X(something)
[09:22] <genii> robby smaller
[09:22] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: well youre goign to have to compile it, extract the folder inside, hopefully you have a zip manager on your comp, than read the install txt file but it goes something like this terminal/go to the path wheer the files are/than type ./configure or ./make etc
[09:22] <petervk> robby: not really
[09:22] <DaltonS> robby, larger? the
[09:22] <Taffy-nay> i'm trying to install 7.04 onto my new vaio laptop that came with vista
[09:22] <Bartzy> is Synaptic safer than automatix ?
[09:22] <genii> robby In size. Larger in resources
[09:22] <DaltonS> robby,  the hardware footprint is WAY smaller
[09:22] <petervk> robby: typical install is 4-5 gigs
[09:22] <d4rkmonkey> genii, what do you mean by "/ on ada"?
[09:23] <dvs01> i have found a cool way to use a linux machine as a usb device server, letting windows machines on the network to virtually plug into the the linux machine's usb devices
[09:23] <Trojaneyez> robby, what do you mean by larger?
[09:23] <cheeser> I can install sun-java6-jdk just fine which is what I want, but when I try to install tomcat5.5, it wants to install gcj which is exactly what I don't want.  how do I tell apt-get to never install gcj?
[09:23] <dvs01> testing it out right now.. using virtualbox to emulate winxp, and running 'usb over network' in the vm
[09:23] <andrea> where can i find german chatrooms?
[09:23] <robby> like file number wise
[09:23] <Taffy-nay> and the installer isn't finding any transferable accounts, is that because it's vista?
[09:23] <DaltonS> robby, Vista uses almost 400 megs just for the OS (after some heavy mods. 650ish on some FRESH installs)
[09:23] <petervk> robby: I have no idea.
[09:23] <Bartzy> pike_ Synaptic is considered better/safer than automatix ?
[09:23] <genii> d4rkmonkey: / is your root filesystem of your linux. the word ada should have been sda
[09:23] <OmegaCenti> How would you find out the busid of certain cards?

[09:25] <Bartzy> pike_, I didnt understand whats your position with synaptic. you consider is stable ?
[09:25] <Pirate_Hunter> pike_: if you use automatix like i do remeber to uninstall everything form automatix and not synaptic as automatix still keeps reference to those apps and etc its a hassle but if you follow instruction yeha it cna be used properly
[09:25] <danl> Is there a terminal for ubuntu that allows you at the command prompt to use your mouse to move the cursor?
[09:25] <Mishu> Hi, I just installed ubunut 7.04 but while configuring internet i couldn't ping to google, I gave default gateway and etc same as i give in windows. Also i added DNS from GUI, where should i add DNS. I guess its due to DNS addr or the default gateway is not getting set properly, where can i set it. If i ping my router addr i.e 192.168.1.1 it works fine, while pinging some other add gives network unreachable
[09:25] <d4rkmonkey> german is like short form for deutsch I forget the exact shortform though..
[09:25] <petervk> robby: file search using which program?
[09:25] <Trojaneyez> robby, actually I find files alot faster on a linux machine then a windows machine
[09:25] <Taffy-nay> i was under the impression that the installer had a program that would pick up my files and settings and transfer them to the new ubuntu installation
[09:25] <Trojaneyez> robby, might try "whereis" "locate" "find"

[09:26] <swine> it doesn't even believe that the display is there

[09:26] <d4rkmonkey> theres already cdrom and cdrom0 in /media, when I did that command I got: mount: mount point sdb does not exist

[09:26] <d4rkmonkey> sorry genii forgot the /dev
[09:26] <robby> good idea should jump to terminal
[09:26] <danl> petervk: let me see if i can clarify
[09:26] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter: The UT2004-LNX-Demo3334.run.gz has one file in it: UT2004-LNX-Demo3334.run
[09:27] <petervk> robby: yeah, not the fastest that way. but usually linux is faster then windows.
[09:27] <DaltonS> Mishu, are you plugged directly into the modem or is it internet --> modem --> router --> computer
[09:27] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: he command to uncompress gzipped (.gz) files is gunzip. Or if it's also 'tar'red (.tar.gz) then you can use the -z switch for tar - 'tar xvfz file.tar.gz'. - just got this for you from the net
[09:27] <banlieue> linux is a big term to use
[09:27] <banlieue> all linux distros faster than windows? i think not
[09:27] <OmegaCenti> swine: err ages of the log... I don't know though
[09:27] <danl> petervk: if i am typing a command and i want to go back to the middle some point and I dont want to use the arrow keys... is there a way to click where i want the cursor to move to?
[09:27] <banlieue> comparing linux to windows always leads to weird comparisons
[09:27] <neztiti> guys another help pls
[09:28] <petervk> banlieue: No, not all. and speed varies a lot
[09:28] <neztiti> how can i search channels 4 vdr
[09:28] <Mishu> DaltonS, Its simply router creates ppp with ineternet, i can login to rounter and ping google. I specify static ip and netmask and gateway and dns in windows
[09:28] <swine> OmegaCenti, no, the refer to a specific display
[09:28] <aricz> that goes for comparing anything.. :')~~
[09:28] <swine> i'm running X server 1 for testing
[09:28] <Bartzy> if I have 1GB RAM, is 500MB swap is enough ?
[09:28] <banlieue> as it's related to drivers as well, of course.. and that's where linux can lack a lot in  generally
[09:28] <petervk> banlieue: But I could not run vista/win xp near as well on this laptop as ubuntu feisty
[09:28] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: i.e. to extract it would go soemthign like this gunzip -c /path/to/folder/filename.tar.gz
[09:28] <Mishu> DaltonS, I can login to router and ping google in linux ...
[09:28] <swine> OmegaCenti, because X server 0 is what i'mn using right now :)
[09:28] <DaltonS> banlieue, Operating systems are tools. You wouldn't try to use a hammer to fix your stain glass nor would you try to use a paint brush to repave your driveway :D
[09:28] <OmegaCenti> swine: okay then give me the relevent logs. including the first and second display log.
[09:28] <swine> OmegaCenti, i just gave them to you
[09:28] <Mishu> DaltonS, Telnet 192.168.1.1 and then sh and then ping google works fine..
[09:28] <OmegaCenti> where?
[09:29] <kikkomanchow> Ruby or Python or PHP? Select one
[09:29] <banlieue> petervk: oh, surely.. but windows 2k would probably run on it
[09:29] <swine> OmegaCenti, http://rafb.net/p/2b07cf90.html
[09:29] <matju> is there an OpenGL driver supporting ARB for the Intel 910/915 GPU ?
[09:29] <DaltonS> Mishu,  let me get this straight
[09:29] <alexIdoia> how do I burn an image disk from an iso ? I have tried twice and it wrote the file data
[09:29] <d4rkmonkey> genii, I got the exact same error with /dev/sdb "mount: special device /dev/sdb does not exist"
[09:29] <genii> d4rkmonkey: If you want to do away with manually mounting it always, you can do: sudo echo "/dev/sdb        /media/cdrom   udf,iso9660 user,auto     0       0" >> /etc/fstab       then: mount -a
[09:29] <scotty74> Mishu: the files you'r search for are the /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/network/interfaces
[09:29] <banlieue> DaltonS: NOW you tell me *puts away hammer*
[09:29] <DaltonS> Mishu, Router --> google = good
[09:29] <Mishu> DaltonS, I think its not able to send the packets to default gateway somehow can u tell me where it remains....
[09:29] <Mishu> yes
[09:29] <cjfp> svn in dapper does not cooperate with svn in feisty: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28846/ -- what does my sysadmin need to do to upgrade the dapper version to be "the same" (as in, compile date)  as the feisty one?
[09:29] <Mishu> DaltonS,
[09:29] <pike_> kikkomanchow: id pick ruby or python which is nice oh! or php!
[09:29] <DaltonS> Mishu, Linux through router = bad?
[09:29] <genii> d4rkmonkey: Conceivably it could be sdc then. Meaning master on 2nd channel
[09:29] <kikkomanchow> pike: lol
[09:30] <d4rkmonkey> ok
[09:30] <petervk> kikkomanchow: python
[09:30] <kikkomanchow> pike_: it seems that ruby needs specific hosting to handle it.. python as well?
[09:30] <Mishu> No Linux througher router i.e if router addr is 192.168.1.1 and linux is 192.168.1.3 it ping 192.168.1.1 but nt google.

[09:30] <Mishu> DaltonS, So in way yes Linux through router to google is bad
[09:30] <banlieue> ntfs-3g is pre-installed with ubuntu, isn't it?

[09:31] <genii> d4rkmonkey: please tell if: ls /dev/sd*      and also: ls /dev/hd*  produce any result
[09:31] <Jack_Sparrow> alexIdoia: I use freeware isorecorder...
[09:31] <Mishu> DaltonS, I have a router device with a linux on it..
[09:31] <banlieue> alexIdoia: you could extract it
[09:31] <Mishu> And i have one PC
[09:31] <Trojaneyez> kikkomanchow, download mono
[09:31] <banlieue> or use k3b if you have KDE installed as well
[09:31] <Mishu> PC addr is 192.168.1.3 and Router addr is 192.168.1.1
[09:31] <Trojaneyez> kikkomanchow, take a look at that
[09:31] <OmegaCenti> swine: one second reading all the logs
[09:31] <Jack_Sparrow> alexIdoia: I assume with that prog you are in Windows
[09:31] <pike_> kikkomanchow: you talking about rails?
[09:31] <kikkomanchow> whats a mono?
[09:31] <scotty74> Mishu: is a Firewall blocking ICMP?
[09:31] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter: any other ideas?
[09:31] <kikkomanchow> monorail? ruby on rail? wtf?!?
[09:31] <alexIdoia> Jack_Sparrow: no I am on feysty c'mon
[09:31] <swine> OmegaCenti, seems that xinerama is working but it only identifies one display
[09:31] <Trojaneyez> kikkomancho, is the opensource version of the .NET framework
[09:31] <glasst> wondering if someone has been able to have ubuntu or any other distro mount and write to internal sd card; have heard this is hard and not found a way to get this done; using live cd with hp laptop
[09:31] <swine> which is the internal lcd
[09:32] <Jack_Sparrow> then right click the iso and write to disk
[09:32] <d4rkmonkey> /dev/sd* gives me: /dev/sda  /dev/sda1  /dev/sda2  /dev/sda5 and /dev/hd* gives me "no such file or directory"
[09:32] <Taffy-nay> mono i sthe kissing desease^_^
[09:32] <alexIdoia> banlieue: what do you mean extract it, I have the file .iso on my desktop
[09:32] <banlieue> Jack_Sparrow: CD/DVD Creator is the ubuntu gnome nautilus burning thingie
[09:32] <petervk> kikkomanchow: I'm not much of a coder, but I just like the functionality and documentation of python
[09:32] <alexIdoia> Jack_Sparrow: that is it ?
[09:32] <OmegaCenti> swine: do you need the module glx?
[09:32] <DaltonS> Mishu, I am not understanding your topography. List how everything is connected for me please, starting fromt hte modem through to the the machine that isn't working
[09:32] <banlieue> alexIdoia: an .iso file is basically just a container containing files, much like .zip and .rar
[09:32] <Jack_Sparrow> sc dvd creator is also a windows program
[09:32] <kikkomanchow> yeah i see alot of python projects
[09:32] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: you woudlnt be able to provide the site you got that file from cause gz & tar are one of those file extention no one likes otherwise you cna sue alien to convert that to .deb
[09:32] <petervk> kikkomanchow: Mono is .Net for other operating systems such as ubuntu
[09:32] <banlieue> alexIdoia: extracting the .iso would give you the actual files you'd see on the cd/dvd
[09:32] <kikkomanchow> is python a good language to whip out webpages fast?
[09:32] <banlieue> which you can throw into the cd/dvd creator
[09:32] <alexIdoia> ok
[09:32] <genii> d4rkmonkey: OK. so then your cd is not being recognised at some hardware level firstly then.
[09:32] <Jack_Sparrow> alexIdoia: yes... right click and write to disk
[09:32] <banlieue> kikkomanchow: get on the web 2.0 hype
[09:33] <petervk> kikkomanchow: with mono you can run some/most .net programs in ubuntu
[09:33] <kikkomanchow> yeah.. web2.0 lol
[09:33] <kikkomanchow> i dun wanna use .net tho
[09:33] <alexIdoia> Jack_Sparrow: but will it create a image disk, are you sure it will not just write the iso as a data DVD ?
[09:33] <Trojaneyez> kikkomanchow, you will want to go with ajax, or ruby on rails style
[09:33] <kikkomanchow> trying to get into this linux thing.. opensource style
[09:33] <petervk> kikkomanchow: php is great for the web
[09:33] <banlieue> kikkomanchow: ajax, php
[09:33] <DaltonS> Mishu, are you using a hardware router appliance with a linux firmware?
[09:33] <OmegaCenti> swine: give me your: sudo lspci -vvb
[09:33] <robby> what pt_chown?
[09:33] <d4rkmonkey> genii, thats really weird because I talked to someone else with the same laptop and the optical drive was one of the only things that worked out of the box
[09:33] <kikkomanchow> ajax im doing already
[09:33] <petervk> kikkomanchow: lots of documentation.
[09:33] <Jack_Sparrow> alexIdoia: yes it will do what you want
[09:33] <banlieue> yea, what petervk and Trojaneyez said
[09:33] <kikkomanchow> , but whats good with ajax.. phython? rails?
[09:33] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter:http://www.unrealtournament.com/ut2004/downloads.html
[09:33] <Mishu> DaltonS, My windows/Linux have IP addr 192.168.1.3 , netmast 255.255.255.0 , Def gateway 192.168.1.1. Router an another device which connects to my Lan card has an addr 192.168.1.1, there is another phone wire that connects to my router, yes i am using hardware router and its addr is 192.168.1.1
[09:33] <kikkomanchow> anytihng other than .net.. cuz im gonna try something new
[09:34] <Jack_Sparrow> alexIdoia: It will not just burn *,iso as data to the drive
[09:34] <alexIdoia> Jack_Sparrow: ok
[09:34] <cjfp> join #ubunut-dapper
[09:34] <robby> !pt_chown
[09:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pt_chown - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:34] <cjfp> sorry
[09:34] <petervk> kikkomanchow: php can be used for ajax
[09:34] <banlieue> #ubuntu-dapper (clickable)
[09:34] <alexIdoia> Jack_Sparrow: and if I wanted to do that ? -just curiosity
[09:34] <genii> d4rkmonkey: I agree that is is weird. Your hard drive is being seen as sda (and all the subpartitions like sda1 sda2 etc) but no sdb sdc etc
[09:34] <DaltonS> Mishu,  I sent you a private msg.
[09:34] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: you cna use alien to convert that to .deb if you want it may work or may not but than its all 50/50 and illl check the file
[09:34] <Jack_Sparrow> alexIdoia: I would use k3b
[09:34] <kikkomanchow> petervk: so php or Python? are they similar?
[09:34] <alexIdoia> ok thanks
[09:34] <alexIdoia> burning
[09:34] <OmegaCenti> swine: (WW) I810: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:0:2:1) found this is concerning to me.
[09:34] <Jack_Sparrow> or the built in file manager setup
[09:34] <Trojaneyez> kikkomanchow, I prefer PHP
[09:35] <banlieue> kikkomanchow: php is nice imo
[09:35] <petervk> kikkomanchow: if your interested in python on the web you can check out django
[09:35] <d4rkmonkey> genii, I don't understand why theres so many then, because all that there should be is the main Ubuntu partition and a swap
[09:35] <kikkomanchow> php, django..  ok lots to read up
[09:35] <Trojaneyez> kikkomanchow, I would recommend you read up on the net about some of languages your asking about maybe get the idea of what your wanting to go
[09:35] <petervk> kikkomanchow: php is almost 100% web only, python is a much more general scripting language
[09:35] <banlieue> php has many good online resources
[09:35] <Bartzy> !grub
[09:35] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[09:35] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: which version did you download? 77.2mb or 58mb
[09:35] <petervk> kikkomanchow: Yeah, wikipedia has good articles on php & python
[09:36] <genii> d4rkmonkey: If your system is something like a Compaq or Dell it may have hidden partitions which have XP recovery software or crap like this on them
[09:36] <banlieue> python's handy to know running linux
[09:36] <Jack_Sparrow> agreed python is nuce
[09:36] <Trojaneyez> banlieue , aye only reason i learned it was for linux
[09:36] <kikkomanchow> I'm into web only, rapid development, ajax, glossy stuff..
[09:36] <Pirate_Hunter> robby: are you trying to gain permission to a file/folder?
[09:36] <Pirate_Hunter> !permission
[09:36] <ubotu> 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
[09:36] <Jack_Sparrow> QT Python Desibner is gui version
[09:36] <Jack_Sparrow> designer
[09:36] <d4rkmonkey> genii, its a HP Compaq 6710b, all partitions should have been wiped when I installed ubuntu
[09:36] <banlieue> kikkomanchow: if you're interested in web-only, php would be the road to take likely
[09:36] <Trojaneyez> kikkomanchow, you looking for web based API's?
[09:36] <OmegaCenti> swine: in your xorg.conf, the second device identifier: change:BusID		"PCI:0:2:1" to: BusID		"PCI:0:02:1" just for kicks.
[09:36] <andylockran> i've walked into the conversation late - whats all the discussion about python?
[09:36] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter:the linux one 77mb
[09:36] <robby> No, just wondering what pt_chown is
[09:37] <banlieue> andylockran: a python escaped from a zoo in Melbourne today
[09:37] <kikkomanchow> cool.. ill do this quick page in php then..
[09:37] <petervk> kikkomanchow: yeah, just try to use php5. php4 is over 3 years old now
[09:37] <kikkomanchow> so PHP, Apache, MySql?
[09:37] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: lol i shouldnt be doing this but im waitnign for a downlaod and nice thing i have downlaod accelerator
[09:37] <banlieue> kikkomanchow: ever heard of 'LAMP'?
[09:37] <kikkomanchow> yeah lamp
[09:37] <petervk> kikkomanchow: yep. LAMP
[09:37] <Trojaneyez> kikkomanchow , how big do your DB's get?
[09:37] <Trojaneyez> kikkomanchow cause if they are really large go with a postgre DB
[09:37] <petervk> kikkomanchow: Linux Mysql Apache php
[09:38] <andylockran> banlieue: ....hmm
[09:38] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter:thx alot for all the help
[09:38] <banlieue> lamp's the way to go :] 
[09:38] <genii> d4rkmonkey: Ah, a Compaq. That model I am unfamiliar with but most have an un-deletable partition (normally) which resides recovery stuff for their default setups etc etc. But aside from this, there is still the issue of no cd being detected
[09:38] <kikkomanchow> hrmm.. current project should be pretty small.. so ill stick to mysql for abit.. since i think i know some friends who know how to use
[09:38] <osxdude|laptop> gah why is windows taking forever to boot...
[09:38] <petervk> kikkomanchow: I like to be different so I would try lighttpd, but that's for the adventurous
[09:38] <Trojaneyez> kikkomanchow, are you the one building the server?
[09:38] <genii> d4rkmonkey: One moment while I look for info on that model
[09:38] <kikkomanchow> yip
[09:38] <Ahmed-Bahaa> hi everyone i need help installin wxpython
[09:38] <banlieue> mysql is definitely knowledge one wants to have when designing website
[09:39] <Trojaneyez> kikkomanchow, read up on LAMP servers
[09:39] <banlieue> websites*
[09:39] <kikkomanchow> lighttpd, whats diff of that compare to apache
[09:39] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: im guessing around 7min to download it would be faster but downlaoding somehting else at the same tie
[09:39] <kikkomanchow> Trojaneyez: : k
[09:39] <Ahmed-Bahaa> please
[09:39] <Jack_Sparrow> kikkomanchow:   Check this out...  http://www.cs.usfca.edu/~afedosov/qttut/
[09:39] <petervk> kikkomanchow: php & mysql is a great way to go. lots of documentation
[09:39] <Denis>  
[09:39] <PlasmaFox`> Anyone think they could find me a binary .deb for Ubuntu 5.10 for the rt61 drivers? I just recieved my card in the mail and I'm using my 5.10 livecd to test it.
[09:39] <OmegaCenti> swine: You still here?
[09:39] <kikkomanchow> ok. time to install them then
[09:39] <banlieue> lamp tends to work well together, hence it's often used
[09:39] <Denis> Hi 2all
[09:39] <petervk> kikkomanchow: lighttpd is a lightweight http server that out performs apache under heavy loads
[09:39] <Ahmed-Bahaa> guys need help
[09:39] <Ahmed-Bahaa> denis: hii
[09:39] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: you there? seriously what is the file extension? are you sure it is .gz? check again
[09:39] <scotty74> i have a problem, the modular compiled agpgart module on my system is not entered in /etc/modules but loaded by system-boot? is there another kerneloption in 2.6.20.3 that let the module startup?
[09:40] <robby> Cool. CD.juicer found a pic od the flaming lips album
[09:40] <kikkomanchow> petervk, hard to setup? ... bad quesetion lol
[09:40] <Denis>  ?
[09:40] <PlasmaFox`> Anyone think they could find me a binary .deb for Ubuntu 5.10 for the rt61 drivers? I just recieved my card in the mail and I'm using my 5.10 livecd to test it.
[09:40] <Ahmed-Bahaa> my proplem is small need some one to help :D
[09:40] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter: yea, the file name is UT2004-LNX-Demo3334
[09:40] <kikkomanchow> im a noob linux user.. so i think ill stick with basic first
[09:40] <genii> d4rkmonkey: I suspect it is due to the DVD being dual layer. But cannot say for certain. i had this same issue on Windoze with some crappy Acer dual layer DVD drive
[09:40] <banlieue> Ahmed-Bahaa: a question would surely help
[09:40] <kikkomanchow> ill see all the problems hands on and optimize as needed i guess
[09:40] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter:.run.gz
[09:40] <petervk> kikkomanchow: No, but for right now you would probably be better with apache. It's a lot more popular
[09:40] <d4rkmonkey> genii, ok, thanks for all your help
[09:40] <Ahmed-Bahaa> banlieue: i cant configure wx python
[09:41] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: i asked you the extension type, look at your extention it would be after the . on the filename
[09:41] <kikkomanchow> thanks for all the help.. i've made the choice ^-^
[09:41] <genii> d4rkmonkey: About now is when I have not much more to add to your situation, unfortunately.
[09:41] <banlieue> Ahmed-Bahaa: because... ?
[09:41] <Ahmed-Bahaa> banlieue: in another way i un kno how to install it
[09:41] <petervk> kikkomanchow: Apache is very good. lighttpd is only for really extreme loads, like youtube
[09:41] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter: UT2004-LNX-Demo3334.run.gz
[09:41] <Boby_> who has ETswitch ?
[09:41] <petervk> kikkomanchow: your welcome
[09:41] <genii> d4rkmonkey: Well, I tried :)
[09:41] <Ahmed-Bahaa> banlieue: i installed the gtk and pyopengl
[09:41] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter: that's a .gz right?
[09:41] <SHOUTING>  Hi, I just upgraded to compiz-fusion from Beryl. I can't find the setting which allows me to rotate the cube by scrolling my mouse wheel when the pointer is at the edge of the screen. Has it been removed or where is it hiding pls?
[09:41] <d4rkmonkey> yeah, thanks for that genii
[09:41] <genii> work calls, AFK maybe 5 mins
[09:41] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: yeah it seemd i was getting the 58 which was wrong it has a different extension
[09:42] <Ahmed-Bahaa> banlieue: but i cant run it , so i downloaded wxpython but i cant ./configure
[09:42] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter:oh
[09:42] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter:that's the mac version
[09:42] <vox754> d4rkmonkey, have done "sudo lshw | less" to see a list of all hardware detected?
[09:42] <OmegaCenti> swine: I will take that as a no...
[09:42] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: now its correct 15min to egt the file
[09:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Ahmed-Bahaa: Were you trying to get started with python?
[09:43] <Ahmed-Bahaa> Jack_Sparrow: sorry wat umean ?
[09:43] <banlieue> Ahmed-Bahaa: you could try following the steps described in http://www.wxpython.org/INSTALL.html
[09:43] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter:i'm trying to dl a version that's just the .run file from 3dgames
[09:43] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter:hopefully that'll work
[09:43] <petervk> Ahmed-Bahaa: its best to install those libraries from synaptic/apt-get
[09:43] <Jack_Sparrow> Ahmed-Bahaa: Are you trying to get python tools installed
[09:43] <Ahmed-Bahaa> yes
[09:43] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: np just tell me its like 7min to complete download
[09:43] <_Lucretia_> tried to install ubuntu on the new machine - couldn't get past the partition stage, wanted to do it manually rather than have the whole disk used. said something like "you can't create a partition past the end" or something
[09:43] <Jack_Sparrow> Ahmed-Bahaa: Have you written in python yet?
[09:43] <Ahmed-Bahaa> Jack_Sparrow: ya i am trying to
[09:43] <pr0nGuy> Anyone know a good program for constructing a family tree?
[09:44] <bigcx2> hey all
[09:44] <Ahmed-Bahaa> Jack_Sparrow: yes but still beginner
[09:44] <petervk> pr0nGuy: gramps
[09:44] <banlieue> gramps
[09:44] <banlieue> what petervk said ;/
[09:44] <Jack_Sparrow> Ahmed-Bahaa: Me too.. give this a quick look..  http://www.cs.usfca.edu/~afedosov/qttut/
[09:44] <bigcx2> has anyone successfully copied a larger partition/disk to a smaller partition/disk (assuming it will fit)???
[09:44] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter:this dl is 275mb, so lemme kno if you get that one workin
[09:44] <Ahmed-Bahaa> Jack_Sparrow: ok thxx
[09:44] <Ricket> When I go into standby and then turn my computer back on, it goes to a black screen with a weird pixelation around the mouse (a rectangle, slightly bigger than the cursor) and I can move the mouse but the rectangle stays where it was and nothing happens. I can't restart X server, I can't press any keys, nothing - only moving the mouse. What is wrong? How can it be fixed?
[09:44] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter:or at least extracted
[09:44] <Ahmed-Bahaa> Jack_Sparrow: i need a gui for python and everyone say the best is wxpython
[09:44] <banlieue> so we have Jack_Sparrow the pirate and a Pirate_Hunter, then?
[09:45] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: yeah today ive got time to burn until this is done so yeah
[09:45] <petervk> bigcx2: what type of file system is it? fat, ext2, ext3, ?
[09:45] <OmegaCenti> swine
[09:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Ahmed-Bahaa: That link is a gui for python
[09:45] <bigcx2> petervk: etx3
[09:45] <bigcx2> err
[09:45] <bigcx2> ext3
[09:45] <Ahmed-Bahaa> Jack_Sparrow: ya u noticed
[09:45] <Pirate_Hunter> banlieue: whos the pirate, there should be only me :)
[09:45] <petervk> bigcx2: it should work, you probably want to backup.
[09:45] <bigcx2> i've read up a lot on dd and such but i just can't figure out where i'm going wrong....the host computer doesn't seem to want to recognize the copied drive as bootable
[09:45] <petervk> bigcx2: is it mounted in linux?
[09:46] <Ahmed-Bahaa> Jack_Sparrow: really thanks , its just ubuntu is hard :)
[09:46] <d4rkmonkey> vox754, i couldn't find it there, this sucks... I hope that gutsy gibbon has support for it, I want to do a clean gutsy install to undo all the xorg hacking I did, and hopefully it supports the optical drive too
[09:46] <Jack_Sparrow> Ahmed-Bahaa: You will have your first program written in a few minutes
[09:46] <bigcx2> petervk: yes
[09:46] <vox754> d4rkmonkey, yep seems like a hardware issue. Check out launchpad and your model. Also, blu-ray?
[09:46] <petervk> bigcx2: are you trying to move it between disks?
[09:46] <banlieue> pr0nGuy: interesting read for you http://www.ancestry.com/learn/library/article.aspx?article=4841
[09:47] <d4rkmonkey> vox754, no its not blu-ray, its a built in CD/DVD Dual Layer Lightscribe drive
[09:47] <Ahmed-Bahaa> Jack_Sparrow: i wrote programes before :D
[09:47] <bigcx2> petervk: define "it"
[09:47] <petervk> bigcx2: the partition?
[09:47] <Jack_Sparrow> Ahmed-Bahaa: I gotta go but that tutporial is good
[09:47] <Ahmed-Bahaa> Jack_Sparrow: just startin to use gui and wat make it really bad that i started using linux soon too
[09:47] <Ahmed-Bahaa> Jack_Sparrow: ok thxx c ya ater
[09:47] <vox754> d4rkmonkey, then it's probably the lightscribe thing.
[09:47] <petervk> bigcx2: the boot flag may not be set
[09:48] <bigcx2> yes. i partitioned the smaller disk with gparted and i dd'ed the larger partition to the smaller partition
[09:49] <bigcx2> why wouldn't it be set? there's only one partition?
[09:49] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: you there? hope you are, check this out someone posting your problem havent read all of it but you should find it interesting - http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-372196.html
[09:49] <petervk> bigcx2: it might work better to resize the larger partion to fit first, then copy it.
[09:49] <verb3k_> Ahmed-Bahaa:  may I help you?
[09:49] <petervk> bigcx2: If you use the gparted live cd it can do all this
[09:49] <Ricket> When I go into standby and then turn my computer back on, it goes to a black screen with a weird pixelation around the mouse (a rectangle, slightly bigger than the cursor) and I can move the mouse but the rectangle stays where it was and nothing happens. I can't restart X server, I can't press any keys, nothing - only moving the mouse. What is wrong? How can it be fixed?
[09:49] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter: yea, i'll check that out
[09:49] <bigcx2> petervk: have you had success with that in the past?
[09:49] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: kk
[09:49] <bigcx2> sounds feasible
[09:49] <d4rkmonkey> yeah, vox754 thats what I thought. I messaged someone on the ubuntu forums who has the same model laptop and he said that it worked out of the box for him, I'll wait to see if I can get some help from him
[09:50] <petervk> bigcx2: gparted cd? yes. Its awesome.
[09:50] <MrLeavy17> Hi
[09:50] <bigcx2> petervk: no no the resize trick you just said
[09:50] <jlund> Ricket: What video driver are you using?
[09:50] <MrLeavy17> http://www.AWSurveys.com/HomeMain.cfm?RefID=hai2u <-- Make a quick $6 on your paypal account
[09:50] <petervk> bigcx2: but as with all partition programs your data may be lost. They don't guarantee anything.
[09:50] <Ricket> jlund: nvidia
[09:50] <bigcx2> right
[09:51] <bigcx2> maybe it would be better to try resize2fs? or gparted?
[09:51] <Lacrymology> !nvidia
[09:51] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:51] <verb3k_> Ahmed-Bahaa:  you are free :)  ....cya
[09:51] <Ricket> lol @ Lacrymology
[09:51] <petervk> bigcx2: no. gparted live cd is probably the best bet.
[09:51] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: did that help you? cause im like 81% done if it did i cna just stop downlaoding
[09:51] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter:idk, i'm reading
[09:51] <bigcx2> petervk: alright, thanks for your help
[09:52] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter:i'll let you kno
[09:52] <swine> OmegaCenti, sorry, had an urgent interrupt
[09:52] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: kk
[09:52] <jlund> Ricket: I think that may be your problem there. I could never get Suspend to work when using the nvidia closed-source driver. When I use the generic 2d-only nv driver then it works just fine.
[09:52] <swine> OmegaCenti, are you still there ? :)
[09:52] <osxdude|laptop> I am defragign niw
[09:52] <petervk> bigcx2: it runs from ram so no problems with the partitions being mounted
[09:52] <petervk> osxdude|laptop: good
[09:52] <Ricket> jlund: well, crap. I can't really get rid of the driver, I like games....... :(
[09:52] <Ahmed-Bahaa> feeh 7ad masry ?
[09:53] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter:no, his extracted file, mine won't extract at all
[09:53] <OmegaCenti> swine: alright there you are.
[09:53] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter:*fine
[09:53] <blackhole> DaltonS: Okay it worked
[09:53] <blackhole> DaltonS: It was DNS problem... :)
[09:53] <vox754> osxdude|laptop, I find it funny that you've been installing, defraging, partitioning and stuff for over 4 hours...
[09:53] <blackhole> DaltonS: Thanks for your help
[09:53] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: look at the second from last he extracts it in a different way
[09:54] <jlund> Ricket: I feel your pain man. I just keep hoping that one day Nvidia or ATI will actually release a card with open specifications so we can get REAL open source drivers for Linux. This is also why I LOVE working on laptops and systems with Intel video chipsets in them because you just don't have these weird problems.
[09:54] <DaltonS> blackhole, :D np
[09:54] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter:the gunzip way?
[09:54] <nedw> is there some way to make a scrypt that parses an rss feed and downloads new content automatically?
[09:54] <nedw> *script
[09:54] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter:when i do that it errors
[09:54] <swine> OmegaCenti, anything interesting to report ? ;)
[09:54] <jlund> Ricket: I even tried to see if Nvidia had a bugzilla or something where I could report it but I didn't have any luck. It is kind of up to them to fix it though.
[09:54] <osxdude|laptop> vox754: Not really installing...
[09:54] <blackhole> DaltonS: Really ubuntu is too kewl, i used slack redhat, centos, gentoo..
[09:54] <nedw> *download
[09:54] <Ricket> jlund: this is a laptop, lol. :) (Nvidia Geforce Go 7900GS)
[09:54] <blackhole> But really there is nothing like ubuntu...
[09:55] <banlieue> gentoo's nice if you're into the linux experience
[09:55] <filthpig> when sudo pccardctl ident gives no output, it says in the howto that the memory on the card cannot be read... How can I access the memory then?
[09:55] <petervk> anyone running gusty?
[09:55] <nj786> i dont know why IRC and TERMINAL open up when i reboot my computer
[09:55] <nedw> **downloads
[09:55] <banlieue> nj786: check your Sessions
[09:55] <DaltonS> blackhole, I like Ubuntu because of the community around it :D
[09:55] <dredhammer> hi i am having a problem with http_proxy recently i tried to set wget to use tor to download a file from sourceforge using 'set http_proxy=127.0.0.1:8118'
[09:55] <petervk> nj786: maybe your session is saved
[09:55] <filthpig> this howto: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessTroubleShootingGuide#head-1b12c0a8c765a0d0d623e3ee60daf197a5bf2b59
[09:55] <Pirate_Hunter> well tis doen let me try if i etract ill tell you haven come accross .ru.gz yet but it will be fun
[09:55] <dredhammer> now everytime i reboot by default wget is set to that along with apt
[09:55] <osxdude|laptop> vox754: but I am deffreging niw and I tried partionioning
[09:55] <dredhammer> i have to use unset http_proxy for it to work
[09:55] <nj786> banlieue: ok how do i change it?
[09:56] <merzbow> Hello people ... My microphe sounds but no program will record sound... I'm desperate what can I do?? I did all the alsamixer stuff. ... but nothing ... help please!
[09:56] <dredhammer> is there anyway to set it back to the default?
[09:56] <banlieue> nj786: run gnome-session-properties
[09:56] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter:when i run gunzip on it i get  unexpected end of file
[09:56] <banlieue> nj786: then unselect and/or remove the things you do not want to run on start-up
[09:56] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip:  well tis doen let me try if i etract ill tell you haven come accross .ru.gz yet but it will be fun and no i was looking at a different one i think its the fourth but will try
[09:56] <swine> OmegaCenti, ?? :)
[09:56] <vox754> osxdude|laptop, in case it failed before, you should defragment like a madman, and only then partition.
[09:56] <jlund> Ricket: Yeah Intel's chips are super slow compared to that card (which is quite nice!) but they have open drivers at least.
[09:57] <petervk> nvidia has some pretty good closed drivers
[09:57] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter: k
[09:57] <petervk> kicks ati's butt
[09:57] <banlieue> amd has promised improvements
[09:57] <OmegaCenti> swine: one sec... rewriting your xorg.conf
[09:57] <banlieue> will be interesting to see
[09:57] <swine> OmegaCenti, awesome
[09:57] <Ricket> jlund: well at least I still have Vista to play games with. I'm not going to change the driver... I guess I will just not standby when I'm on Ubuntu. I don't use Ubuntu much anyway, cause of problems like this all over the place.. Ubuntu is certainly getting better, but it doesn't even come close to the "just works" capability of Windows XP and Vista.
[09:57] <arnath> hi, i have a laptop with an ATI Mobility Radeon X1400
[09:57] <petervk> banlieue: Yeah. Lets see what happens
[09:58] <arnath> would it work well under ubuntu?
[09:58] <banlieue> Ricket: that's debatable of course
[09:58] <petervk> banlieue: I wonder which one (nvida/ati) will open their drivers first
[09:58] <banlieue> in my opinion, linux is a lot better when everything's working, but a lot worse when things break
[09:58] <petervk> arnath: No.
[09:58] <petervk> arnath: I'm pretty sure, let me check
[09:58] <bruenig> nobody even cares about ati in the linux community, nvidia would be the first
[09:58] <jlund> Ricket: This is primarily the fault of your video card and its manufacturer. I use Linux exclusively on my laptop without any issues at all.
[09:58] <banlieue> petervk: i don't see either of them do it in the near future, but i'd put my money on ati now if i had to choose one (because of AMD)
[09:59] <arnath> petervk: you are pretty sure it won't work? :S
[09:59] <petervk> banlieue: Yeah. But nvidia is huge with linux
[09:59] <banlieue> amd seems interested in 'fixing' the blemishes on ATI's name
[09:59] <petervk> arnath: Let me check something, brb
[09:59] <banlieue> indeed, that's why AMD would require to do something drastic to win it back
[09:59] <arnath> petervk: ok
[09:59] <banlieue> (such as opening their drivers)
[09:59] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter:did it extract ok?
[09:59] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: no im still tryign
[09:59] <Ricket> What drivers do the Dell Linux laptops ship with? This is an E1705, there were some Ubuntu E1705s shipped and I wonder if they had the same problems??
[10:00] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter:ok
[10:00] <nj786> banlieue: ok i do not see terminal
[10:00] <banlieue> nj786: in either list?
[10:00] <nj786> in current session'
[10:00] <Ricket> Oh they probably had the default video drivers, not nvidia
[10:00] <nyc-h0st> guys hwo in the world can i kill a process that has a status D?
[10:00] <fdr> hi! do you know if there is a way to use gpg for encryption and specify the recipient on the commandline, by specifying the public key file? (instead of a key-id in the keyring I mean... I'd like to get rid of the keyring for a particular application)
[10:00] <andrer> anyone know what could cause a ls -lsa not to show the file creation TIME?
[10:00] <jlund> Ricket: No, they don't because they use Intel video chipsets and Intel wireless cards. Intel has fully open sourced drivers for both.
[10:00] <nyc-h0st> kill -9 doesnt do jack
[10:00] <fdr> thanks
[10:00] <banlieue> nj786: it could also be a file it triggers that has 'gnome-terminal' as a run
[10:00] <andrer> as in: 4 -rw-rw-r--  1 asterisk asterisk  156 Jul  6  2007 call7680.call
[10:01] <Ricket> jlund: The Intel was the lowest choice, they also shipped with X1400s and 7900GS's
[10:01] <banlieue> nj786: check every item in both startup programs and current session, and (temporarily) disable anything you doubt
[10:01] <pr0nGuy> petervk banlieue:  Merci
[10:01] <nj786> banlieue: well in start up i don see IRC or anything but in current session i  see IRC but no terminal
[10:01] <banlieue> be sure not to disable the required items though, such as metacity etc
[10:01] <jlund> Ricket: Intel's drivers also do 3d but you're right the performance isn't as good. But it is worth the sacrifice to have better system stability because developers can actually troubleshoot problems.
[10:01] <Ricket> jlund: Also, there was a choice for a Dell wireless card - unfortunately, I chose it (because it has draft N, unlike Intel)
[10:01] <nyc-h0st> anyone?
[10:01] <banlieue> nj786: are you using IRC through irssi?
[10:02] <nj786> banlieue: no
[10:02] <banlieue> nj786: it could be a different program triggering gnome-terminal
[10:02] <banlieue> so it doesn't actually list gnome-terminal, but the program that triggers it
[10:02] <Ricket> jlund: It's not worth the sacrifice if you want to do anything 3D-related.. I play games and also do a bit of 3D modeling, and I would not be able to stand an intel "accelerator" chip
[10:02] <banlieue> Ricket: but it's accelerated!
[10:02] <Ricket> lol
[10:02] <nj786> banlieue: what is style?
[10:03] <zaggynl> I'm accelerated too with coffee :3
[10:03] <Ricket> it accelerates memory usage
[10:03] <banlieue> nj786: the style displays what kind of program it is, you can change style to sort the items
[10:03] <nikin> Ricket: that isnt that bad... it just depends on the number of polygons you want to display
[10:03] <DaltonS> banlieue, so if I put some bottlerockets on a geo metro without an engine can I sell that as "accellerated" as well?
[10:03] <banlieue> DaltonS: only if it has intel inside
[10:03] <jlund> Ricket: I really want you to know that I understand what you are saying and the frustration. I just want to help you realize that these aren't problems that Ubuntu can fix. The manufacturers of the video cards and wireless cards have total control. They either provide drivers or they don't. They either open source them or they don't. It isn't the fault of Ubuntu if they provide no drivers or provide poor drivers. That doesn't change your
[10:03] <jlund> situation at all, I know. But you can't blame Ubuntu for it :)
[10:03] <petervk> arnath: ok, x1400 will work in linux
[10:03] <cchance> can ubuntu run on a 250 MHZ machine?
[10:04] <arnath> petervk: great! thx :D
[10:04] <banlieue> cchance: i'd consider xubuntu :)
[10:04] <petervk> arnath: you will need the fglrx driver to get 3d
[10:04] <cchance> some i got to downlod
[10:04] <cchance> and i cant
[10:04] <cchance> what about ubuntu server?
[10:04] <arnath> petervk: ok, will do :)
[10:04] <DaltonS> cchance, I would run something like Damn Small Linux on a box like that.
[10:04] <nikin> cchance: yes
[10:04] <banlieue> i doubt ubuntu gnome would run nice on your 250mhz, but i'd not know
[10:04] <cchance> i am
[10:04] <petervk> arnath: I'd suggest the envy script to install the latest fglrx driver
[10:04] <cchance> dsl sucks
[10:05] <banlieue> dsl is very limited, sadly
[10:05] <OmegaCenti> swine: almost done
[10:05] <cchance> the apt worse of all
[10:05] <PurpZeY> !envy
[10:05] <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!
[10:05] <swine> OmegaCenti, cool
[10:05] <banlieue> there's many kernels one can consider on a pc with such specs
[10:05] <cchance> it does not even download the dependencys
[10:05] <petervk> arnath: once you have ubuntu installed
[10:05] <nikin> cchance: but this mainly depends on what you want to do with it
[10:05] <cchance> web ,email,ftp,ssh,php,cgi all those
[10:05] <cchance> only
[10:05] <DaltonS> DSL may be limited but I can work around most of the limitations. I can's work around poor performance.
[10:05] <banlieue> cchance: did you consider redhat?
[10:05] <arnath> i'll try it the slightly harder way first, see if i can get it working :p
[10:05] <cchance> thats all i want it to do
[10:05] <osxdude|lapto1> Its gonna take foreva
[10:05] <arnath> but first i gotta transfer all my data to another drive, then start formatting
[10:06] <cchance> not after i saw the download size
[10:06] <DaltonS> cchance, oh, for a server?
[10:06] <banlieue> you could also try vector linux, cchance
[10:06] <arnath> just wanted to make sure i could in fact run ubuntu on it before i did all that ;)
[10:06] <cchance> yes
[10:06] <petervk> chairman: xubuntu may work
[10:06] <banlieue> www.vectorlinux.com
[10:06] <petervk> chairman: but 250mhz is very slow
[10:06] <cchance> vector linux, how big is it, does its apt work right?
[10:06] <nikin> cchance: if you can live without gnome, and use some lighter WM s like Blackbox Fluxbox Flwm , then it is no problem
[10:06] <banlieue> 250mhz is not a lot, even for xubuntu :P
[10:06] <Ricket> mmkay well i'm back to working on my OTHER ubuntu problems... :S
[10:06] <chairman> what?
[10:06] <Ricket> i'll be back later probably
[10:06] <banlieue> fluxbox is a bit of a downer
[10:06] <nikin> you also need some lot of RAM :D
[10:07] <cchance> i dont need any gui
[10:07] <cchance> its going to be headless so
[10:07] <banlieue> ms-dos is nice
[10:07] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: you there cna you downlaod ark from synaptic as it seems it handles those kind of extentions
[10:07] <nikin> cchance: then it is no problem
[10:07] <banlieue> :] 
[10:07] <cchance> vector, how big is it
[10:07] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter:i'll try that
[10:07] <nikin> just install the system without GUI, i think its possible with the alternate disk
[10:08] <nikin> and install wathever you want
[10:08] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: kk tell me how it goes
[10:08] <banlieue> ubuntu lite is also an option if you prefer a GUI
[10:08] <cchance> sorry, its i386 arc though
[10:08] <catharsis_> can anyone help me figure out why my wireless wont work? Its a netgear wireless adapter wg511t, it connects to the router but wont get online =/
[10:08] <cchance> so vector i dont think will run
[10:08] <alexIdoia> the swap partition is a logical or a primary partition ?
[10:08] <nikin> using a server install my record is 133Mhz and 128 Mb ram, but i think less memory will do it to
[10:08] <alexIdoia> and does it need to be at the begining or at the end of the disk - what is the best ?
[10:08] <nonewmsgs> catharsus did you do the dhcp command?
[10:09] <catharsis_> nonewmsgs: maybe, what is it?
[10:09] <firelord901> anyone know if theres a sudo command to empty the trash
[10:09] <catharsis_> i set it up thru network manager
[10:09] <DaltonS> nikin, 133mhz and 128 ram huh? The server lags at 5 emails an hour huh? ;)
[10:09] <OmegaCenti> swine: try this xorg.conf http://rafb.net/p/fJPeJR14.html for debugging purposes. once you get that situated and gdm stop snd startx and what not (or you can just reboot) I will need your X.org.0.log
[10:09] <mundungus> firelord,i know how to access it
[10:09] <firelord901> ok
[10:09] <firelord901> can you tell me how?
[10:10] <OmegaCenti> s/snd/and
[10:10] <nikin> Dalton: LOL no, it worked fine as a lighttpd server
[10:10] <banlieue> does ubuntu lite even exist still?
[10:10] <nonewmsgs> dhclient ath0
[10:10] <banlieue> with them claiming the ubuntu brand name now
[10:10] <OmegaCenti> swine: you there?
[10:10] <PurpZeY> catharsis_: There are a bunch of posts on the forum about this, just search  wg511t
[10:10] <mundungus> firelord: navigate to desktop, then do 'cd .Trash/'
[10:10] <cchance> ok, vector out of the run, i dont have anywhere near 256mB of ram, is there anything that can run headless, that can do ssh, apache, and a mail server with like 128MB
[10:11] <nikin> DaltonS: just remember there where days when SERVERS where using 66 Mhz 486 CPUs
[10:11] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: anything
[10:11] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter: ark won't even open the file
[10:11] <catharsis_> PurpZeY: i found some, but they all apply to hoary, and dont seem to be helping =/
[10:11] <catharsis_> ill try again
[10:11] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: thats weird
[10:11] <PurpZeY> catharsis_: You can try using WifiRadar instead
[10:11] <banlieue> nikin: werent those the days the intarwebs were way fast?
[10:11] <swine> OmegaCenti, yes
[10:11] <PurpZeY> catharsis_: pastebin your iwconfig
[10:11] <swine> OmegaCenti, it didn't work. let me pastet he logs
[10:11] <nicholas1> hi all anyone here use ubuntu studio
[10:11] <PurpZeY> !anyone | nicholas1
[10:11] <ubotu> nicholas1: 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?
[10:11] <DaltonS> nikin, and now adays most email servers get more spam in a day than the combined email traffic of 1990 :D
[10:11] <firelord901> nicholas go into #ubuntustudio
[10:11] <firelord901> thats all ubuntu studio users
[10:12] <iShock> Help please, I can hear no sound in totem. Why?
[10:12] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter: oh well, thx a lot for trying to help me
[10:12] <PurpZeY> !alsa | iShock
[10:12] <ubotu> iShock: 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
[10:12] <mundungus> firelord: it worked ?
[10:12] <cchance> Ubuntu Server?
[10:12] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: heck ill try and look for it but if i ever see you online again and i do find a way to extract will tell you
[10:12] <banlieue> iShock: is sound muted in the program... ?
[10:12] <nicholas1> well i noticed in the synaptic package manager that I can download the ubuntu studio audio program suite but I'm running fiesty fawn
[10:12] <nikin> DaltonS: sure, but itjust depends on traffic, it is usable fi think upto 100 users 10 e-mails a day aprox 512kbyte /mail maybe more
[10:13] <nicholas1> i was wondering if there my be some confilcts
[10:13] <petervk> Anyone using the bcm43xx driver in gusty?
[10:13] <cchance> the alternate cd of ubuntu server 7.04 could it work on a 64MB machine with 250MHZ cpu?
[10:13] <PurpZeY> petervk: For gutsy #ubuntu+1
[10:13] <nikin> never tested it tho :D
[10:13] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter:don't worry about it, i found a version that's just the .run file
[10:13] <nikin> cchance: yep, get server
[10:13] <petervk> PurpZeY: thanks!
[10:13] <nikin> :D
[10:13] <cchance> ok, but server gives me a prob though
[10:13] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter: hopefully it'll work
[10:14] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: kk well im gone for now than need to get my teeth in some meat as that will make me happy... take care
[10:14] <zabin> is there a way to view the ssh log files?
[10:14] <cchance> something with the network hardware detection
[10:14] <DaltonS> nikin, I'd try it out, but even my firewall is 1.6 Athlon (slowest comp I have)
[10:14] <banlieue> cchance: 64mb RAM is the minimum required for ubuntu server
[10:14] <OmegaCenti> swine: any time you can get those to me it would be appreciated
[10:14] <swine> OmegaCenti, http://rafb.net/p/zyel9y65.html
[10:14] <swine> OmegaCenti, there you go :)
[10:14] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter: cya
[10:14] <Pirate_Hunter> Chip: either way im intrigued will look into it after im done
[10:14] <Chip> Pirate_Hunter:lol ok thx again
[10:14] <nikin> DaltonS: my slowest now is 166Mhz notebook with 40MB RAM
[10:14] <banlieue> ibm?
[10:14] <swine> OmegaCenti, can you IM me if you want to catch my attention btw
[10:14] <AFI> Does someone care to discuss some Linux audio questions in a PM with me.  Concerning OSS, and ALSA, and how each one is controlled via Volume Control and specific applications.
[10:14] <nicholas1> ok no one is talking in #ubuntu studio
[10:15] <DaltonS> nikin,  that your Quake 4 box? >.<
[10:15] <swine> OmegaCenti, i think xchat blinks if you do that :)
[10:15] <swine> OmegaCenti, heading out
[10:15] <OuZo> how do i apply a patch to source? patch file.patch ? thanks
[10:15] <swine> OmegaCenti, please PM any questions :)
[10:15] <catharsis_> PurpZeY: im sorry, what do you want me to do? im pretty much new to this =/
[10:15] <nicholas1> does anyone know if i can install the audio program suite of ubuntu studio on feisty fawn
[10:15] <nikin> DaltonS: no i use it to Render 60 min long HDDVD videos of 1 000 000 000 polygon scenes
[10:16] <dredhammer> hi installed xgl a few days to use beryl with my ati card, i just dropped back into regular gnome and now mplayer and my multimedia systems selector is telling me i don't have xv installed
[10:16] <DaltonS> nikin, might be faster to pay someone to hand draw the video on binder paper.
[10:16] <polorix> Does anyone know if the NVIDIA 8800 GTX has linux support yet? more importantly if it has 3D accel in Ubuntu 7.04
[10:16] <dredhammer> although xvinfo shows it is installed
[10:17] <PurpZeY> catharsis_: Ok, open a terminal and run the command iwconfig then copy that and paste it into PASTEBIN instructions to follow
[10:17] <PurpZeY> !paste | catharsis_
[10:17] <nicholas1> has anyone ever installed the ubuntu studio program package on another ubuntu version
[10:17] <ubotu> catharsis_: 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)
[10:17] <nicholas1> not ubuntu studio
[10:17] <ilikec0ws> polorix, I think the latest 100.xxx series of drivers support it, dont know about 3D but i should imagine so
[10:17] <banlieue> DaltonS: in China it'd be cheaper, too
[10:17] <nikin> DaltonS: maybe... :D but Quake4 is neither that good usage of that massive computing power
[10:18] <petervk> polorix: latest 100.x do support 3d
[10:18] <dor> Hello everyone. I was following a HOWTO about installing Compiz Fusion, and the first part is to remove compiz-core and desktop-effects
[10:18] <polorix> ilikec0ws, petervk, Thank you
[10:18] <zabin> is there anyway to view who has logged in though ssh ?
[10:19] <PurpZeY> dor: #ubuntu-effects
[10:19] <dor> OK, thanks
[10:19] <genii> zabin cat /etc/auth.log |grep ssh
[10:19] <zaggynl> O.o that was scary
[10:19] <zaggynl> I couldn't use my keyboard/mouse anymore in X
[10:19] <genii> zabin Sorry, /var/log/auth.log
[10:20] <zaggynl> after doing CTRL+ALT+F1 and CTRL+ALT+F7, I could type and click again
[10:20] <firelord901> Ok, so i updated my alsa drivers, would i need to restart before it takes effect?
[10:20] <PurpZeY> firelord901: I think so.....Not positive.
[10:20] <zaggynl> firedrops, you could restart alsa
[10:20] <banlieue> that'd be the easiest way, firelord901
[10:20] <zaggynl> sudo /etc/init.d/alsasomething restart
[10:20] <robby> Tux is a MacDaddy
[10:20] <petervk> zabin: /var/log/auth.log
[10:20] <firelord901> k thanks
[10:20] <PurpZeY> firelord901: yeah restar alsa and don't listen to me.
[10:21] <banlieue> you don't HAVE TO, but it might be better (less likely you'll screw something up ;P)

[10:23] <Taliswork> Hi, two questions, 1) is the pptp client provided with the ubuntu CD by default and 2) will the Debian package for pptp work on Ubuntu properly?

[10:23] <firelord901> brb
[10:23] <dredhammer> how do i re-enable xv

[10:25] <petervk> lesshaste: I don't know of any linux app that will do that

[10:25] <lesshaste> petervk: I suppose I could convert it furst
[10:25] <lesshaste> first
[10:26] <petervk> zabin: thats a cron job
[10:26] <zabin> petervk: could that mean that someone was trying to gain access to my computer?
[10:26] <petervk> zabin: nothing to worry about
[10:26] <zabin> k
[10:26] <petervk> zabin: No. Not remote access. Just local
[10:27] <DaltonS> zabin,  someone was trying to access your computer. It was you. Hacker!
[10:27] <genii> zabin You can also try:   cat /var/log/messages | grep ssh | more
[10:27] <Puppy_> Does anyone know anything like this: http://www.venturecake.com/10-minutes-to-run-every-windows-app-seamlessly-on-your-ubuntu-desktop/ for vm ware, but works with xp home addition?
[10:27] <robby> Where can you buy a Tux toy animal?
[10:27] <banlieue> robby: China?
[10:27] <zabin> i havent accessed that computer on july 5th because im out of town and i couldnt get on it though ssh, and i am still out of town and for some reason now i can get on it thats why i ask..
[10:27] <petervk> Puppy_: that rdesktop trick only works in windows xp pro
[10:28] <robby> ok, nevermind
[10:28] <Puppy_> petervk, right. Is there anything this simple for the home addition? :)
[10:28] <petervk> zabin: look over the /var/log/auth.log file for that day
[10:28] <robby> i think my gfriend is going to dump me for tux
[10:28] <Bartzy> PriceChild, are u here ?
[10:28] <alex_> hey, when i try to access another computer in my network (a windows copmuter), i am asked to enter a password, does anybody know what may this be?

[10:29] <zabin> ok
[10:29] <robby> lol
[10:29] <Bartzy> damn he's not here
[10:29] <petervk> zabin: cron runs scheduled tasks, which is normal for ubuntu
[10:29] <zabin> thanks
[10:29] <orbisvicis> is it possible to compare the md5sums of two directories?
[10:30] <alex_> when i try to access another computer in my network (a windows copmuter), i am asked to enter a password, does anybody know what may this be?
[10:30] <banlieue> alex_: use the login information you'd use to access the windows computer
[10:30] <banlieue> so, your windows account login
[10:30] <banlieue> preferably admin rights
[10:30] <robby> i made her mad so im about to get shit canned anyways.  my fault
[10:30] <banlieue> robby: at least you still have linux installed
[10:30] <Bartzy> need help - I edited my /boot/grub/menu.lst file, and now when I try to boot ubuntu, it says that there is no such partition. also, when I try to boot XP, it says that NTLDR is missing... anyone ..?
[10:30] <petervk> alex_: what banlieue said
[10:30] <matju> ARB
[10:30] <alex_> i'll try that, thanks.
[10:30] <robby> lol.. and porn
[10:31] <matju> oops, sorry, stray line.
[10:31] <Puppy_> petervk: thanks. bye
[10:31] <robby> well the porn is to much at times
[10:31] <catharsis_> PurpZeY: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28856/ sorry it takes me a while, but the comptuer im on here with is using windows, and its my laptop with ubuntu =/
[10:31] <banlieue> well, obviously porn
[10:31] <banlieue> that's the only reason we run linux, isnt it?
[10:31] <vox754> robby, off topic!
[10:31] <banlieue> to display porn faster
[10:31] <catharsis_> pia
[10:31] <firefly2442> I'm trying to recursively search and replace but it's not working http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28859/
[10:31] <robby> sorry vox
[10:32] <petervk> yeah, off topic
[10:32] <robby> sorry
[10:32] <robby> i stop
[10:32] <kerik> hey guys...any wireless experts here?
[10:32] <banlieue> lol
[10:32] <petervk> kerik: what is your problem?
[10:32] <petervk> kerik: not that I'm an expert
[10:33] <matju> banlieue: the first google images result for ubuntu is still http://blog.levhita.net/wp-content/uploads/2006/07/ubuntu-logo.jpg
[10:33] <PurpZeY> catharsis_: Just my theory, but signal strench 10/94 is pretty weak...That might be the issue. Can you connect to the router at all? Do you get the "connected" thing?
[10:33] <firefly2442> are those backward slashes correct?
[10:33] <robby> ban:  what u thinking :)
[10:33] <petervk> kerik: but I may be able to help
[10:33] <banlieue> matju: that's lovely lol
[10:33] <kerik> petervk, well...I have a wifi card that just stopped working over night...
[10:33] <petervk> kerik: what chipset?
[10:33] <jrib> firefly2442: it should be -type, not type for one
[10:33] <PurpZeY> matju: That is out of line for this channel
[10:33] <banlieue> kerik: did you try resetting your router? aka, does your network still work on different cards?
[10:33] <kerik> petervk, it's Atheros...
[10:33] <catharsis_> PurpZeY: not sure
[10:33] <kerik> banlieue, well..on all my windows comps it works...
[10:33] <catharsis_> PurpZeY: whats the connected thing?
[10:34] <jrib> firefly2442: and use # to delimit instead of / or you'll go crazy
[10:34] <PurpZeY> catharsis_: What little icon is in your notification panel?
[10:34] <boxman> hi all
[10:34] <petervk> kerik: yeah, have you tried other wireless cards?
[10:34] <matju> PurpZeY: i'm out of this channel too.
[10:34] <banlieue> kerik: somewhat off-topic but quite funny, I actually had the exact opposite three days ago
[10:34] <kerik> petervk, but Ubuntu can't find the card now...
[10:34] <banlieue> my wireless network stopped working on my Windows pc
[10:34] <banlieue> (still don't have it fixed, but that's not for this channel ;P)
[10:34] <lesshaste> what's the difference between pdf2ps and pdftops?
[10:34] <petervk> kerik: internal, pci, pcmcia?
[10:34] <kerik> banlieue, ok...how opposite?
[10:34] <kerik> petervk, it's mini-pci
[10:34] <robby> lol
[10:34] <boxman> my brother just reinstalled xp and now the boot menu doesn't load so he can't get to ubuntu. anyone ever had the same problem?
[10:34] <banlieue> kerik: bizarroworld opposite
[10:35] <firefly2442> jrib: how do you use # ?
[10:35] <mundungus> guyz,wats the difference if i use 'google.com' and 'google.com/linux'?
[10:35] <PurpZeY> !grub | boxman
[10:35] <ubotu> boxman: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[10:35] <kerik> banlieue, :) cool
[10:35] <jrib> firefly2442: s#foo#bar#
[10:35] <polorix> banlieue, what card do you have?
[10:35] <banlieue> polorix: better ask kerik, he's having problems:)
[10:35] <kerik> petervk, are there any way I can search for the card?
[10:35] <mundungus> guyz,wats the difference if i use 'google.com' and 'google.com/linux'?
[10:35] <orbisvicis> boxman, to resetup grub run grub setup (hdx,x)
[10:35] <Ghaz> has anyone got a few mins to help me?
[10:35] <petervk> kerik: so network manager doesn't show the card? or it doesn't show up in a "lspci | grep Atheros"
[10:35] <petervk> kerik: lspci
[10:35] <kerik> polorix, it's an Atheros card
[10:35] <banlieue> mundungus: dont you see the difference
[10:35] <banlieue> ?
[10:35] <kerik> banlieue, thanks :)
[10:36] <karanga> mundungus: google.com/linux only searches linux specific topics
[10:36] <orbisvicis> boxman, but first you also have to define the root drive w/ grub files as root (hdx,x)
[10:36] <boxman> orbisvicis: could you elaborate a little?
[10:36] <kerik> petervk, hmm...must admit havent tried the last of the 2..
[10:36] <catharsis_> PurpZeY: well i have the same icons as when i started up ubuntu yesterday, nothing changed, so im assuming its not connected?
[10:36] <PurpZeY> Ghaz: Just ask, if someone can help, they will.
[10:36] <merzbow> so will recording in ubuntu ever work???????????
[10:36] <kerik> sudo lspci?
[10:36] <catharsis_> PurpZeY: im a total linux idiot btw
[10:36] <polorix> kerik, really? thats like the most well known chipset...i have an Atheros USB one but noooo linux doesn't like it -_-
[10:36] <catharsis_> PurpZeY: windows power user ftl
[10:36] <Bartzy> need help - I edited my /boot/grub/menu.lst file, and now when I try to boot ubuntu, it says that there is no such partition. also, when I try to boot XP, it says that NTLDR is missing... anyone ..?
[10:36] <firefly2442> jrib: it worked!  thanks a lot!
[10:36] <yagami_> how does one install a rhythmbox plugin?
[10:36] <mundungus> am afraid i cant see, cause if i search for say Mplayer in google.com i get the same response hit as i get n google.com/linux!
[10:37] <petervk> kerik: sometimes network manager will stop detecting the card if you change some of the network settings.
[10:37] <kerik> polorix, well...the thing is that it has been working like a breeze for nearly 3 months..
[10:37] <kerik> petervk, hmmm...
[10:37] <B-777> I am trying to login with GAIM Messenger to MSN...it logins, then exits without giving an error problem...what do I need to do to make it work?
[10:37] <PurpZeY> catharsis_: there are generally 2 icons shown in network manager...3 if it's wireless...The first will be two little green orbs that tell you it is talking to the router, the other would be the "two computers" or the "two computers with the X" which do you have?
[10:37] <kerik> petervk, I'll try the lspci...2 sec
[10:37] <banlieue> kerik: you didn't install/change any settings around the time it stopped working?
[10:37] <petervk> kerik: good
[10:37] <Ghaz> well basically im new to this and its completly thrown me, ive installed it and managed to login using the command line
[10:37] <polorix> kerik, then...caput?
[10:37] <PurpZeY> B-777: Pidgin or gaim?
[10:37] <kerik> banlieue, not that I know of...
[10:37] <Ghaz> but how do i get the GUI to load?
[10:37] <orbisvicis> boxman, instructions can be found here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351. Note that you will have to edit menu.1st to add the windows entry. This has to be done within linux, so you need the ubuntu live cd, or the grub install cd.
[10:37] <kerik> polorix, I sure don't hope so...
[10:37] <petervk> kerik: lspci | grep Atheros will help filter it
[10:37] <PurpZeY> Ghaz: How did you install?
[10:38] <Kissaki> hello everyone
[10:38] <B-777> Purpzey: GAIM, I am using ubuntu 6.06 due to a problem with 7.04
[10:38] <Bartzy> help , please ? :|
[10:38] <Lichte> Hi all
[10:38] <boxman> orbisvicis: ok. brilliant. thanks a lot!
[10:38] <Ghaz> i installed the server iso, noy the live one
[10:38] <Lichte> I'm using the new Gutsy livecd as we speak
[10:38] <banlieue> B-777: what problem?
[10:38] <catharsis_> PurpZeY: the two computers
[10:38] <PurpZeY> Ghaz: That's why...You have no gui...It's really easy to install one if you like.
[10:38] <boxman> orbisvicis: cheers! see you later!
[10:38] <kerik> petervk, hmm...lspci finds the card
[10:38] <Ghaz> oh lol
[10:38] <Bartzy> anyone available for help with grub/menu.lst ?
[10:38] <petervk> kerik: ok, then the kernel still detects it
[10:38] <Kissaki> i just ahve a question: I am pretty new to ubuntu, and i want to see what stuff are checked/loaded dooring the boot of the ubuntu. But ubuntu displays its own loading screen. how can I make it to show the loaded studd?
[10:38] <PurpZeY> catharsis_: click on that, and make sure your router is selected...Do you have WPA or WEP?
[10:39] <catharsis_> WEP
[10:39] <Ghaz> easy for you, or easy for me, lol
[10:39] <B-777> Banlieu: I am trying to login to my MSN account using GAIM, it logins ok, then it exits suddenly without an error message
[10:39] <PurpZeY> Ghaz: One command line
[10:39] <mundungus> petervk: is there a IM appalication for ubuntu jus like Gaim but has ability to log into Google-Chat?
[10:39] <catharsis_> PurpZeY: and its selected in the wireless connection
[10:39] <banlieue> kerik: it couldnt be your ubuntu pc falling out of the wireless signal, could it?
[10:39] <Elvina> it's easy to say it's simple for :S
[10:39] <PurpZeY> Ghaz: If you want regular gnome just sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[10:39] <Ghaz> simple as that?
[10:39] <banlieue> outside the range, that is
[10:39] <kerik> petervk, I downloaded some updates for Linux, but then it went short of battery...could that be it?
[10:39] <petervk> kerik: probably not
[10:39] <jrib> Kissaki: remove 'quiet' and 'splash' from /boot/grub/menu.lst
[10:39] <PurpZeY> Ghaz: If you want xfe or kde instead, it's just as easy, just a different command
[10:40] <petervk> mundungus: gaim is in ubuntu
[10:40] <Ghaz> right, ill see what that does
[10:40] <karanga> mundungus: try a search for desktop for example. You should find only matches to desktops for linux are returned. mplayer is too specific to differentiate different matches
[10:40] <Kissaki> jrib : thanks man, ill give it a try
[10:40] <petervk> mundungus: and works with google talk
[10:40] <kerik> banlieue, well...no...first of all I'm within 4 feet of the router and secondary...wouldn't it search anyway?
[10:40] <PurpZeY> catharsis_: So, you entered the WEP info and things?
[10:40] <Bartzy> jrib, can u help me out with grub as well ? :)
[10:40] <kerik> banlieue, right now it is simply not installed or whatever the thing seems to be...
[10:40] <petervk> kerik: make sure roaming mode is selected in the network settings.
[10:40] <banlieue> kerik: does it show up on your wireless assistant?
[10:40] <mundungus> petervk:gaim doesnt, i dont know wat username they want cause it says wrong username
[10:41] <kerik> petervk, iwconfig?
[10:41] <catharsis_> PurpZeY: ya, i put the wep passphrase in with pw type wep key ascii and the custom settings says automatic configuration (DHCP)
[10:41] <jrib> Bartzy: I don't know much about it, but someone may be able to help if you pastebin your current menu.lst and explain what you changed
[10:41] <PurpZeY> catharsis_: Try it in hex.
[10:41] <B-777> Any ideas?
[10:41] <Bartzy> okay jrib
[10:41] <b0ha> can i install belry no 6.10?
[10:41] <Bartzy> need help - I edited my /boot/grub/menu.lst file, and now when I try to boot ubuntu, it says that there is no such partition. also, when I try to boot XP, it says that NTLDR is missing... anyone ..?
[10:41] <jrib> !beryl > b0ha (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:41] <Ghaz> i got an error :(
[10:41] <petervk> mundungus: http://www.google.com/support/talk/bin/answer.py?answer=24073
[10:41] <mundungus> petervk:or cud be am using an oldie version of gaim,how dyu check the version?
[10:41] <Ghaz> could not find package
[10:42] <banlieue> ah, so > does PM then? and | channel?
[10:42] <banlieue> any other switches?
[10:42] <mundungus> petervk:thanx
[10:42] <catharsis_> PurpZeY: no dice =/
[10:42] <petervk> mundungus: in the contact list click help -> about
[10:42] <Bartzy> !he
[10:42] <ubotu>         :
[10:42] <ubotu> /join #ubuntu-il
[10:42] <kerik> banlieue, well...It doesn't show up in where I usually find it... (sorry if this is too noop :)
[10:42] <PurpZeY> catharsis_: Just a sec...working on it
[10:42] <petervk> mundungus: if your running feisty then you have gaim 2.0 beta
[10:42] <B-777> Should I keep GAIM or try to install Pidgin?
[10:43] <petervk> kerik: iwconfig?
[10:43] <jrib> yagami_: you should be able to install a rhytmbox plugin by dropping it in ~/.gnome2/rhythmbox/plugins.  Note that you should check if your plugin is packaged in the repositories first though
[10:43] <d4rkmonkey> B-777, pidgin
[10:43] <Bartzy> should I pastebin my menu.lst ? :|
[10:43] <d4rkmonkey> B-777, IMO huge improvements from gaim to pidgin
[10:43] <petervk> B-777: stay with what the distro provides
[10:43] <mundungus> petervk:am running dapper
[10:43] <banlieue> kerik: does it show up in 'wlassistant'?
[10:43] <B-777> d4rkmonkey, is there one for Ubuntu 6.06?
[10:43] <petervk> mundungus: ahh.
[10:43] <kerik> petervk, well..i have tried ...but will do again..
[10:43] <PurpZeY> catharsis_: Take a look at this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=339810&highlight=AR5212
[10:43] <jrib> andcor_: the two user login, is this a one-time thing or?
[10:43] <petervk> kerik: no, don't do that. I just didn't understand
[10:44] <petervk> kerik: what version of ubuntu?
[10:44] <kerik> petervk, well...feisty
[10:44] <vox754> !bot > banlieue
[10:44] <banlieue> ty:)
[10:44] <d4rkmonkey> B-777, I don't know of any repo for it. I had to compile mine from source and I'm using 7.04. Check out pidgin.im its alot better to use the repos though whenever possible... then they auto update and stuff like that
[10:44] <kerik> banlieue, you don't know what that is in danish do you? ;)
[10:44] <jrib> OuZo: man patch.  The syntax is usually: patch -pNUM < file.patch    where NUM is an appropriate number explained in the man page
[10:44] <petervk> kerik: ok, left click on the network manager icon in the tray and select manual configuration
[10:44] <banlieue> kerik: I barely even know it in English ;P
[10:44] <kerik> petervk, iwconfig still finds nothing..
[10:44] <andcor_> jrib: No it shall happen automaticly
[10:44] <kerik> banlieue, where you from?
[10:44] <jrib> firedrops: rm -rf ~/.Trash/  should empty your trash
[10:44] <B-777> d4rkmonkey, ok I am an absolute newbie to Ubuntu LOL
[10:45] <andcor_> jrib: all the time
[10:45] <B-777> d4rkmonkey, How do I go about doing that?
[10:45] <kerik> petervk, done
[10:45] <PurpZeY> B-777: Compiling itself is very easy...
[10:45] <banlieue> kerik: think drugs and sex (and sheltered jewish girls), and you have my city
[10:45] <d4rkmonkey> B-777, if you're willing to miss the auto update, go for it. at pidgin.im there is a download for Linux, don't download the .rpm file
[10:45] <petervk> kerik: does the wireless card show up in the list?
[10:45] <jrib> andcor_: take a look at the comments in /etc/gdm/gdm.conf and then edit /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom appropriately for gdm to start on two screens
[10:45] <Bartzy> help please anyone ? :)
[10:45] <kerik> banlieue, amsterdam?
[10:45] <banlieue> pidgin.im is quite easy to install
[10:45] <PurpZeY> banlieue: do you live on long island?
[10:45] <banlieue> kerik: you got it
[10:45] <linxeh> is it possible to mount vista partitions in dapper ?
[10:45] <banlieue> um, minus .im
[10:45] <vox754> !please > Bartzy
[10:45] <petervk> Bartzy: restate your question?
[10:45] <banlieue> PurpZeY: :P
[10:45] <B-777> d4rkmonkey, I'd much rather auto update...but I am not familiar with compling
[10:45] <kerik> banlieue, :) naiz..lovely city...
[10:46] <Bartzy> petervk need help - I edited my /boot/grub/menu.lst file, and now when I try to boot ubuntu, it says that there is no such partition. also, when I try to boot XP, it says that NTLDR is missing... anyone ..?
[10:46] <petervk> linxeh: ntfs-3g
[10:46] <PurpZeY> banlieue: that's where i live...sounds like it
[10:46] <linxeh> petervk: ok thanks - is that in dapper?
[10:46] <Bartzy> lol sorry for the "need help".. it was in the clipboard :)
[10:46] <kerik> petervk, nope...doesn't show up...
[10:46] <petervk> Bartzy: aw crap. Not my area. keep asking
[10:46] <d4rkmonkey> B-777, by the auto-update I meant that your software updates automatically if its in the repositories.
[10:46] <linxeh> petervk: ie, can i do it from a dapper boot cd? :o
[10:46] <Bartzy> okay thanks petervk
[10:46] <banlieue> kerik: it's a shame i can't be as impressed by it as tourists often are, i'm spoilt
[10:46] <petervk> linxeh: I don't think so.
[10:46] <Bartzy> anyone can help with grub/menu.lst ? :)
[10:46] <kerik> banlieue, sheltered jewish girls? - they're jewish?
[10:46] <d4rkmonkey> B-777, not that you can update to get pidgin into the repositories I don't know how to do this
[10:46] <tec1> Hello all
[10:46] <OuZo> ok jrib
[10:46] <OuZo> thanks
[10:46] <petervk> kerik: I'm sorry man. I don't know
[10:46] <B-777> d4rkmonkey, got it...so what do I need to do to install pidgin to begin with?
[10:46] <bitmvnch> Anyone know if it is possible to set the "macro" argument of a widget in AT Schema definition - not the widget's definition itself - via AGX?
[10:47] <FirefighterBlu3> what are the preseed lines for the installer language and keyboard settings as might be set for en_US.UTF-8 and us english standard AT?
[10:47] <banlieue> kerik: i was thinking Anne Frank, the world war 2 mascot
[10:47] <bitmvnch> maybe this is call for a widget:macro TGV?
[10:47] <petervk> linxeh: you running dapper?
[10:47] <kerik> banlieue, well...when I was there we had a break in in our car by the canal....so not too cool :)
[10:47] <d4rkmonkey> B-777, download the .tar file from pidgin.im
[10:47] <bitmvnch> whup wrong chan, sry
[10:47] <kerik> banlieue, :) ok
[10:47] <Paddy_EIRE> Bartzy, sounds nasty for xp anyway, the ntldr is not something that can be just fixed/replaced
[10:47] <Elemental_> hello everyone...  anyone having experience with the Lenovo X60 Tablet PC under Ubuntu Feisty Fawn, let me know... have a question about a random bug I'm noticing...
[10:47] <kerik> petervk, well..thanks for giving it a go anyways!
[10:47] <d4rkmonkey> B-777, I'm not the best with this PurpZeY was the one who helped me with my pidgin install...
[10:47] <petervk> kerik: Sorry i couldn't help
[10:47] <tec1> how  to install  ubuntu  on m/c  installed fedora  and having lvm  fs
[10:47] <banlieue> the INSTALL file insize the .tar will explain everything
[10:47] <petervk> kerik: sounds wierd
[10:47] <banlieue> (@ pidgin)
[10:48] <Paddy_EIRE> Bartzy, I think its part of the windows kernel
[10:48] <linxeh> petervk: no, feisty - but I only have a dapper cd and the vista disk is full of trojans - I want to image the drive and then reinstall the machine
[10:48] <banlieue> inside*
[10:48] <Bartzy> Paddy_EIRE, I think it can, but that's not my biggest issue right now... I just don't understand why when I try to load ubuntu it says that there is no such partition
[10:48] <tec1> i  created a new group  lv   for ubuntu , wat next
[10:48] <kerik> petervk, yeah...but who knows...I will try updating again...on cabled connection
[10:48] <linxeh> I guess I should try and download feisty
[10:48] <Ghaz> PurpZeY: i still cant get my desktop, says error loading package
[10:48] <catharsis_> PurpZeY: thanks ill try some of this
[10:48] <SeveredCross> If you need to install pidgin, just get the tarball, untar it, ./configure --prefix=/usr, make then sudo make install -- remove gaim first.
[10:48] <PurpZeY> Ghaz: Are you connected to the internet?
[10:48] <mpav65> hello
[10:48] <banlieue> Bartzy: so both your ubuntu and your windows xp boot loaders wont start? sounds like a problem with your boot sector
[10:48] <petervk> linxeh: ntfs-3g is pretty new. Do you have an internet connection on this machine? (or are you typing from it)?
[10:49] <robby> What so great about Agave??
[10:49] <SeveredCross> And use --prefix=/usr unless you want it to be separate from the stuff installed by Ubuntu (which is a perfectly fine way to do things)
[10:49] <Bartzy> GRUB loads
[10:49] <kerik> banlieue, you shouldn't by chance know if updating that fails can cause mess up in wifi card?
[10:49] <Ghaz> yeah, but im not sure if the networking part installed ok
[10:49] <banlieue> Bartzy: did you try a quick google search yet? I believe the NTLDR Win XP thing is a common bug..
[10:49] <PurpZeY> Ghaz: run the command, ping yahoo.com
[10:49] <Bartzy> petervk, grub loads... when I start XP with it - it says NTLDR is missing.. but nevermind that. when I try to load ubuntu, it says no such partition and gets me back to the grub menu
[10:50] <B-777> Ok I think I got things under control...going to try to install pidgin...thanks to all for the help :)
[10:50] <banlieue> kerik: it's not very likely, but it's probably possible
[10:50] <robby> Ru n WinXP CD to replace the NTLDR
[10:50] <petervk> linxeh: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions/ThirdPartyNTFS3G
[10:50] <PurpZeY> Bartzy: Have you tried the ubotu steps?
[10:50] <Bartzy> Okay people - the NTLDR doesn't interest me ! :]  I just want ubuntu to load and stop saying there's no such partition...
[10:50] <linxeh> petervk: ok thanks - will look. no internet connection on the machine, but I could easily hook it up
[10:50] <banlieue> lol
[10:50] <banlieue> but NTLDR!
[10:50] <mpav65> i am new to linux and i need help installing flash.  i unpacked the tar.gz file to my desktop and just need the appropriate command to install it.  the readme says"$ ./flashplayer-installer"  what do i change it to?
[10:50] <kerik> banlieue, hmm...I'll be right back to tell you...just updated the things that failed last time.... :) see you in a split
[10:50] <banlieue> kerik: good luck
[10:50] <kaptein> B-777: you can find a .deb file on www.getdeb.net but i'd comile it if I were you. Have to learn sometime
[10:50] <d4rkmonkey> B-777, ok, there is a install file in the .tar that you download, follow that and it should be fairly easy. First package that you need is build-essential do compile it
[10:50] <Bartzy> PurpZeY, the ubotu steps (For grub) is what got me to this problem :)
[10:51] <jrib> !flash > mpav65 (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:51] <banlieue> as a piece of advice, don't get a .deb for it
[10:51] <linxeh> petervk: does the stock kernel ntfs driver not cope with vista partitions ? I only need read access etc
[10:51] <jrib> mpav65: you should use the flash that is packaged in the ubuntu repositories, not the tar.gz
[10:51] <robby> U have the ISO you used to install ubuntu?
[10:51] <banlieue> it's shockingly easy to install, Pidgin (just follow the four or so steps in the INSTALL file)
[10:51] <PurpZeY> banlieue: vista will eat ubuntu
[10:51] <nimbo> hey how can i open the system services on xubuntu? there is no such menu entry
[10:51] <petervk> linxeh: yeah. You can do read only from the stock kernel. Sorry
[10:51] <banlieue> PurpZeY: i thought it only ate resources
[10:51] <SeveredCross> mpav: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[10:51] <mpav65> jrib: how do i get to them?
[10:52] <bluefox83> PurpZeY, you came all the way to a linux support channel to say that?
[10:52] <tec1> when i am going  to partition menu  , it does  not recogines  lvm partitions
[10:52] <SeveredCross> Make sure you enable the universe/multiverse/etc repositories.
[10:52] <banlieue> you need universal enabled for the nonfree flash plugin
[10:52] <linxeh> petervk:  hmm ok I'll play around. maybe this guy tried encrypting his disk or something :o
[10:52] <jrib> mpav65: ubotu should have sent you instructions
[10:52] <banlieue> universE*
[10:52] <Ghaz> PurpZeY: I think ive broken it all together now, i have the desktop version also, does that have a GUI
[10:52] <Bartzy> petervk, you have a clue about my problem...  ? :)
[10:52] <PurpZeY> banlieue: There are a whole host of people who's partition and all these types of boot problems are created on a vista dual boot
[10:52] <PurpZeY> Ghaz: The LiveCD definitely does, yup.
[10:52] <petervk> linxeh: oh, no. wait. you do need the ntfs-3g driver to read ntfs
[10:52] <banlieue> PurpZeY: be sure to tell Bartzy, i was merely butting in
[10:52] <PurpZeY> banlieue: I thought he was in XP
[10:53] <jrib> mpav65: do you know how to install packages?
[10:53] <banlieue> PurpZeY: oh, so he was.. my mistake :] 
[10:53] <mpav65> ehh no sorry
[10:53] <tec1> any  suggestions
[10:53] <Bartzy> banlieue, I didn't understand what you just said :)
[10:53] <petervk> linxeh: ntfs-3g is a fuse module so it does not modify the kernel. really east to install and setup.
[10:53] <petervk> linxeh: with an internet connection
[10:53] <banlieue> the only possibly tricky thing in ntfs-3g is having to force mount hdds
[10:53] <jrib> !software > mpav65 (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:53] <Ghaz> PurpZeY: Thank you for your help mate i'll install that and see how i get on before bothering you again heh
[10:53] <petervk> Bartzy: Not really.
[10:54] <Bartzy> petervk, thanks anyways :)
[10:54] <banlieue> but even that should be fairly easy
[10:54] <psygrass> hi.. i am trying to compile and install dekorator; i downloaded Kdevelop, Kdevelop3.dev, build-essential and checkinstall packages... but when i type (make)  in the terminal i get errors and can't install it... please i need to know what libraries still missing? i couldn't find an answer for this on the net :-)
[10:54] <vlt_home> Hello. Which media player can play an xvid avi file and an mp3 audio track simultanously?
[10:54] <banlieue> vlt_home: vlc can i believe
[10:54] <nimbo> mplayer
[10:54] <banlieue> and mplayer
[10:54] <vlt_home> banlieue: I tried vlc but can't find the multiple open dialog ...
[10:55] <vlt_home> aah mplayer ...
[10:55] <petervk> vlt_home: and totem-xine
[10:55] <banlieue> ok, so vlc cannot
[10:55] <banlieue> unless they hid the option :] 
[10:56] <robby> Its amazing.   People are doing things all around the world
[10:56] <banlieue> try mplayer though, it's an underdog favourite
[10:56] <mpav65> crap i have the 64 bit version installed can i still use flash
[10:56] <stefg> psygrass:  sudo apt-get build-dep kwin-style-dekorator (btw #kubuntu is for KDE related stuff)
[10:57] <vlt_home> Does anyone know the option to load a separate sound file in mplayer (faster that I have read the man page)?
[10:57] <vox754> !away > Trixsey
[10:57] <robby> Right now I'm thinking about everyone else doing things.
[10:58] <vlt_home> seems to be -audiofile ... -- that was too easy.
[10:59] <banlieue> i'm hungry:(
[10:59] <barnydan> NYLE!!!
[11:00] <robby> Banlieue is about to eat food
[11:00] <danw99> hello, everyone, I need some help with installing a kernel
[11:00] <kerik> banlieue, VICTORY IS MINE!
[11:00] <kerik> :D
[11:00] <cosmoretro> hey i have a question
[11:00] <miles800> I got a 500 GB external drive, and want to use it with both windows and Linux.  I would also like it to be just one partition.  Would anyone recommend anything be ntfs for the filesystem?
[11:00] <jrib> mpav65: yes, but not as easily.  See: http://www.janvitus.netsons.org/2007/01/15/nspluginwrapper-adobe-flash-player/ (scroll down for english)
[11:00] <psygrass> stefg: thanx.. but what if i wanted to build anything from source.. what libraries do i need to have? i couldn't find that on the net.. if someone knows a good guide, that would be great.
[11:00] <banlieue> kerik: congrats:)
[11:00] <kerik> cosmoretro, come along with it then :)
[11:00] <kerik> banlieue, thanx :)
[11:01] <banlieue> kerik: the update fixed the problem, then?
[11:01] <kerik> banlieue, yeah I guess so...
[11:01] <cosmoretro> i'm trying to install openchrome
[11:01] <Ahmed-Bahaa> hey people any one here use Gt and python ?
[11:01] <cosmoretro> i have an error
[11:01] <cosmoretro> like
[11:01] <danw99> miles800: have you considered using ext3 and the ext2 driver for windows??
[11:01] <cosmoretro> ./autogen.sh: 9: autoreconf: not found
[11:01] <banlieue> kerik: ah who cares, as long as it works.. don't move too much or it might break again!
[11:01] <robby> im thinking about a nice piece of bannana cream pie
[11:01] <banlieue> mmmm food
[11:01] <jrib> !offtopic | robby banlieue

[11:01] <stefg> psygrass: apt-get build-dep is exatly installinf all dependencies needed to *build* a package...
[11:01] <vlt_home> banlieue: Yes, `mplayer videofile.xvid.avi -soundfile soundfile.mp3` works. Thanks again.
[11:01] <banlieue> banana cream pie, covered in beef
[11:01] <kerik> banlieue, :) yeah...however I think it was due to the failing of updating the kernel..
[11:02] <Nyle> barnydan: what?

[11:02] <banlieue> jrib: right:)

[11:02] <robby> gravy fires
[11:02] <barnydan> Nyle check your pm's
[11:02] <jrib> Bartzy: why haven't you pastebinned it and explained what you changed?

[11:05] <kikkomanchow> Any guide on how to install PHP and mySql?
[11:05] <Bartzy> jrib, http://pastebin.com/943441
[11:05] <jrib> !lamp > kikkomanchow (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:05] <kikkomanchow> !lamp
[11:05] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[11:06] <banlieue> charliko: if you insist read http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-31053.html but once again, it's recommended not to log in as root (especially by default)

[11:07] <Bartzy> jrib, I also changed the timeout and the default setting (from ubuntu to XP, so if time runs out it will boot into XP and not ubuntu... I have a sister and she doesn't like linux :))
[11:07] <Ahmed-Bahaa> petervk: thh wait i will try it
[11:08] <petervk> Ahmed-Bahaa: zsnes is just an emulator for snes roms.
[11:08] <Bartzy> jrib, anyways - the timeout and default changes work - so I figure the change in line 66 cause the problems...
[11:08] <nomad> ?
[11:08] <banlieue> nomad: you were asked what the problem is
[11:09] <robby> nomad: shoot
[11:09] <petervk> banlieue: I think it was something with js, and I don't know js at all
[11:09] <homerj> yeah, it's js
[11:09] <petervk> nomad: could you ask your question again?
[11:09] <jrib> Bartzy: what did line 66 say before?
[11:09] <firelord901> ugh my sound didn't work and i had to reinstall :(
[11:09] <homerj> you need spidermonkey-bin
[11:09] <banlieue> firelord901: does it work now?
[11:09] <banlieue> we had people praying for you in here, yaknow
[11:09] <nomad>  if i open or create a .js (javascript) file it has always a octave syntax highlighting instead a javascript syntax highlighting and i have to change this by hand every time. can i fix this ?
[11:10] <firelord901> no
[11:10] <Bartzy> jrib, it says something like that, but instead of /dev/sda3, it was some weird code... about 20 chars..
[11:10] <BigToe> Ubuntu setup is taking ages, can I turn off my PC and reboot at the "cleaning up" stage? (alternate install CD)
[11:10] <jrib> Bartzy: why did you change it?
[11:10] <slavik> BigToe: no
[11:10] <banlieue> nomad: what program? gedit?
[11:10] <petervk> nomad: which program?
[11:10] <slavik> BigToe: not a good idea ...
[11:10] <BigToe> slavik, but it's been taking AAAAAAAAAges :(
[11:10] <firelord901> ban: no
[11:10] <Bartzy> jrib, because the docs said to change it... I needed to change the HD of grub
[11:10] <BigToe> it has literally took 5 hours
[11:10] <nomad> balieue petervk : gedit, yes
[11:10] <slavik> BigToe: you know of xstremesystems.org by chance?
[11:10] <BigToe> nope S:
[11:10] <nomad> banlieue
[11:10] <slavik> hmm, is the system frozen?
[11:11] <alexIdoia> when installing I have put /home onto a diffferent drive, where can I confirm this ?
[11:11] <BigToe> slavik, no
[11:11] <BigToe> it's just VERY slow
[11:11] <BigToe> because of a bug in acpi
[11:11] <robby> Boy my Adderall is KICKIN!!
[11:11] <banlieue> nomad: (you can use <tab> to auto-complete nicks in most IRC clients, by the way)
[11:11] <t0nia> eeeee
[11:11] <xeem|linux> I have a dell latitude c640 with ubuntu on it.  I have an external monitor hooked up, and I want to be able to close the lid on my lcd and make the external the primary.  When I lift up the lid, it would then revert to being just a secondary monitor.  Is it possible to do this?
[11:11] <jrib> alexIdoia: read /etc/fstab
[11:11] <petervk> nomad: I don't really know. Gedit must be detecting something octave like in the code.
[11:11] <wolflord> what the heck is a .deb for !!
[11:11] <alexIdoia> thanks
[11:11] <BigToe> but a friend told me how to turn my ACPI off temporarily
[11:11] <slavik> BigToe: since you're just installing, I'm going to say go ahead
[11:11] <xeem|linux> I have check the ubuntu forums, but I didn't find anything
[11:11] <xeem|linux> also checked google
[11:11] <jrib> !software > wolflord (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:11] <BigToe> mmmkay slavik
[11:11] <BigToe> :D
[11:11] <xeem|linux> maybe I'm not searching from the right thing
[11:11] <petervk> xeem|linux: yes if your an xorg god
[11:11] <xeem|linux> that's what I figured
[11:11] <eck> xeem|linux: it ought to be possible, that's how it works on my thinkpad (no tweaking of anything)
[11:12] <slavik> wolflord: same thing as .msi are for
[11:12] <filthpig> alexIdoia: you should get a confirmation screen before starting the actual install
[11:12] <cosmoretro> how can i install autoconf?
[11:12] <slavik> and .rpm
[11:12] <petervk> eck: you are an xorg god
[11:12] <robby> LOL.....Wallops
[11:12] <nomad> banlieue, thanks ^^
[11:12] <filthpig> then you'll see i.e. / is /dev/hda1 and /home is /dev/hda2
[11:12] <jrib> cosmoretro: install the "autoconf" package
[11:12] <jrib> !software > cosmoretro (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:12] <nomad> petervk, mmh, but if i create a new file its the same problem
[11:12] <t0nia> hhiii
[11:13] <Bartzy> jrib .. ?
[11:13] <xeem|linux> does it automatically do the resolution settings for you eck?
[11:13] <eck> i think how well xorg responds to that kind of stuff depends on your video card, it doesn't work for example on my computer at work (ati card)
[11:13] <xeem|linux> or do you have to put that in your xorg.conf manually?
[11:13] <egolost> how do i interact with the /etc/auto.smb bash script?
[11:13] <banlieue> nomad: is your default highlight mode on octave?
[11:13] <cosmoretro> i installed that but still i have an error "autoreconf: failed to run aclocal: No such file or directory
[11:13] <cosmoretro> "
[11:13] <jrib> Bartzy: what drive is the kernel on now then?
[11:13] <petervk> nomad: That is weird. I know in gusty they revamped gedit's syntax highlighting part so it might be better in gusty.
[11:13] <petervk> nomad: But I really can't help you.
[11:13] <banlieue> i'm with petervk
[11:13] <robby> !wallops
[11:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wallops - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:14] <eck> with my previous monitor it worked automatically, with my new monitor i had to put the mode lines into the xorg.conf manually, so i guess it depends what monitor/card combination you have
[11:14] <Bartzy> the kernel was (and is) on sda3...
[11:14] <eck> (my thinkpad has intel video)
[11:14] <Bartzy> it's hd(2,2) for grub.
[11:14] <xeem|linux> I'll give it a shot eck.  Thanks for your help :)
[11:14] <firelord901> Anyone have sound working on either a Compaq Presario V3000 or a HP Pavilion DV2000
[11:14] <Bartzy> checked on drive.map file
[11:14] <nomad> petervk, okay, i will try it to fix by myself ^^
[11:14] <petervk> banlieue: Why are you with me?
[11:14] <banlieue> petervk: you smell nice
[11:14] <petervk> nomad: very sorry
[11:14] <robby> wallops robby
[11:14] <t0nia> im on a 450mhz p2
[11:14] <banlieue> also, I was going to say the same thing you said, but you beat me to the punch
[11:14] <robby> lol  oopsw
[11:14] <buti> hi
[11:14] <Bartzy> jrib, did u get the msgs ? cause I forgot to add your nick
[11:14] <petervk> banlieue: wow. You can smell over irc? awesome
[11:14] <t0nia> it runs fine
[11:15] <ilikec0ws> Bartzy, I guiess you didnt get it working before?
[11:15] <jrib> Bartzy: yes, why don't you try going back to the uuid for line 66 that you changed
[11:15] <aum> with vncserver, is there any way to serve the current X desktop over vnc, instead of creating a whole new one?
[11:15] <banlieue> petervk: what sounds a blessing, a curse in reality
[11:15] <robby> "wallops"
[11:15] <petervk> banlieue: I bet
[11:15] <red__> is there ne form of ICS
[11:15] <banlieue> can we actually add helplines to the bot?
[11:15] <slavik> aum: that's the point of vnc, no?
[11:15] <t0nia> its my dads puter
[11:15] <Bartzy> ilikec0ws, ubuntu worked great before that. I had another problem with grub (that got fixed) and now I have this
[11:15] <petervk> aum: i don't think so
[11:15] <Bartzy> jrib, u think it will help ?
[11:16] <Bartzy> jrib - can you give me your syntax of line 66 ?
[11:16] <robby> wallops is such a funny word
[11:16] <aum> slavik: vncserver by default creates a whole new desktop in background
[11:16] <t0nia> junk win98
[11:16] <firelord901> anyone know if theres an easy way to downgrade to the alsa used in edgy
[11:16] <jrib> Bartzy: # kopt=root=UUID=40bfc2c9-1ba7-4bcb-8d21-08e419d85343 ro     but your uuid is different of course
[11:16] <Morgan> *Sighs* I am not having any luck with the pidgin install...now its giving me the error message... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool
[11:16] <petervk> aum: http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/x11/x11vnc
[11:16] <zyxel> does beryl work on intel graphic
[11:16] <stefg> !intelhda | firelord901
[11:16] <ubotu> firelord901: For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[11:16] <jrib> Morgan: why don't you just use a .deb?
[11:16] <eck> Morgan: did you apt-get builddep gaim
[11:16] <kaptein> zyxel: works fine for me
[11:16] <Bartzy> jrib, yeah I know, thank you :) luckily I backed up the file
[11:17] <eck> Morgan: it shoudl get all the deps for you
[11:17] <Morgan> Jrib: Because I am a noob and I don't know what I am doing? LOL
[11:17] <petervk> aum: opps, I mean this: http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/x11/x11vnc
[11:17] <Bartzy> jrib, btw, whats the "ro" at the end of the line stand for ?
[11:17] <aum> petervk: x11vnc - great - many thx
[11:17] <slavik> aum: I am going to say "works for me"
[11:17] <t0nia> im on  pcllos 2==6
[11:17] <jrib> Bartzy: read only I guess
[11:17] <RRando> folks, New here, my ubuntu system is hosed!  I was upgrading from edgy to fiesty and it was configing the files, no kernel built yet.... screen turned all sorts of colors, and basically froze... now none of the kernels will boot: dapper nor edgy..... suggestions?
[11:17] <zyxel> my labtop have problem when using beryl
[11:17] <Bartzy> oh... okay
[11:17] <Kroozr> Does anyone have an issue with gDesklets weather widgets not working at all
[11:17] <robby> Anyone know how to use the "Wallops" command??
[11:17] <Morgan> Jrib: I am using ubuntu 6.06 too...
[11:17] <egolost> noone knows how the /etc/auto.smb bashscript should work?
[11:17] <DaltonS> zyxel, Beryl isn't easy to get working.
[11:18] <banlieue> robby: are we talking IRC here? ;o
[11:18] <robby> yes
[11:18] <banlieue> Beryl can quite literally be hell if you're lucky enough to be on an ATI card
[11:18] <Morgan> Brb these s-storms are getting close
[11:18] <t0nia> i love plloc 2006
[11:18] <banlieue> robby: /raw wallops :message here
[11:18] <zyxel> compiz is easier to work  on but the water effect from is nice
[11:18] <petervk> aum: http://www.karlrunge.com/x11vnc/
[11:18] <banlieue> or /wallops message if your client supports it
[11:18] <petervk> aum: your welcome
[11:18] <DaltonS> banlieue, I've hosed a system or two "trying" to get things working on an ATI card :(
[11:18] <firelord901> Would Beryl or Compiz be better for a GMA 950
[11:19] <t0nia> it works perfect
[11:19] <banlieue> my beryl was working fine on ubuntu edgy, but when I upgraded to feisty it broke again ;/
[11:19] <petervk> firelord901: compizfusion
[11:19] <buti> hey people. i'm just ubout to try an upgrade remotely.
[11:19] <stefg> !traffic

[11:19] <banlieue> it's getting the 3d acceleration to work that can be a horrible pain
[11:19] <mzanfardino> if I want to enable ssh connections to my machine, what must I install?
[11:19] <firelord901> whenever i try to do compizfusion and enable it the screen just goes white
[11:19] <petervk> mzanfardino: ssh-server
[11:19] <BigToe> can you open a terminal in the alternate install CD?
[11:20] <mzanfardino> petervk: I should have known that.  Thank you
[11:20] <petervk> mzanfardino: Correnction: openssh-server
[11:20] <Bartzy> jrib, I'm trying now to restart.. thank you for your help... I'm tired of booting up with the slow live cd :P
[11:20] <banlieue> oh, for whoever missed it, Beryl and Compiz merged again
[11:20] <t0nia> i love linux
[11:20] <banlieue> back in march
[11:20] <zyxel> i wonder does zune work on ubuntu 7.04
[11:20] <jrib> Bartzy: gl
[11:20] <stefg> !info openssh-server | mzanfardino
[11:20] <ubotu> mzanfardino: openssh-server: Secure shell server, an rshd replacement. In component main, is optional. Version 1:4.3p2-8ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 230 kB, installed size 596 kB
[11:20] <n2diy_> mzanfardino: nothing, ssh is included with the install
[11:20] <Bartzy> thanks :p[
[11:20] <mzanfardino> petervk: I was just going to tell you that ssh-server has no installation candidates and that I chose openssh-server...
[11:20] <banlieue> (now known as 'compiz fusion')
[11:21] <petervk> mzanfardino: make sure to chose a good username/password if the machine faces the internet
[11:21] <t0nia> justa silly gal here
[11:21] <buti> its a transistion from breezy (!) to feisty.. should i make a step inbetween?
[11:21] <sotec_prod> does anyone know a good package for setting mouse button functions for ubuntu?
[11:21] <jrib> buti: yes
[11:21] <petervk> n2diy_: ssh client is included, not the server
[11:21] <banlieue> buti: i believe you have to take one step at a time if you wish to have your system still alive at the end
[11:21] <buti> jrib: dapper?
[11:21] <sotec_prod> specifically for the logitech g5?
[11:21] <jrib> sotec_prod: xbindkeys or imwheel
[11:21] <jrib> buti: yes, and edgy
[11:21] <sotec_prod> jrib, thanks
[11:21] <banlieue> so go from b > d > e > f
[11:21] <jrib> !mouse > sotec_prod (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:21] <robby> my adderall is kickin hard
[11:21] <Assassin`> what can i use to unzip .rar files and files like .r01 thru .r80
[11:21] <Assassin`> ?
[11:22] <jrib> !rar > Assassin` (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:22] <petervk> Assassin`: unrar
[11:22] <cityofash> lovely this thing auto joins #ubuntu now
[11:22] <cityofash> haha
[11:22] <buti> damn.. and each time a whole dist-upgrade?
[11:22] <t0nia> i am in a flood zone
[11:22] <The_Thief> gute nach
[11:22] <buti> .. it's a rather small server-only system though
[11:23] <n2diy_> petervk: ok, can't remember now if I installed a server or not, but my two boxes talk to each other via ssh.
[11:23] <banlieue> buti: or consider a reinstall, of course
[11:23] <petervk> Assassin`: not installed by default, but should work from the command line (if file-roller doesn't work)
[11:23] <buti> banlieue: shure, i consider... but not remotely right now.
[11:23] <petervk> n2diy_: oh
[11:23] <BigToe> why is every key pressing twice in the installer? >:O
[11:23] <RRando> buti: then it won't take long :-)... but that is the supported way..., use a cd, it's safer!
[11:23] <neo2k> hey, i've got a ipw2200 wireless lan card on my laptop, ubuntu seems to detect it (shows up on iwconfig), however i am not able to detect or connect to any wireless networks, any ideas ?
[11:23] <t0nia> my big huge 21 CRT
[11:23] <ghatak_mobile> when i do apt-get update, and apt-get upgrade, i get no choice but to upgrade all packages that update thinks need to be updated. I want some packages not be updated. How do i get around that
[11:23] <Assassin`> petervk: i don't know how to send it to a certain directory tho
[11:23] <t0nia> i lov it
[11:23] <bruenig> neo2k, iwlist interface list (fill in interface with your own, I presume eth2?)
[11:24] <ada1> cough
[11:24] <bruenig> neo2k, iwlist interface scan (fill in interface with your own, I presume eth2?)
[11:24] <petervk> Assassin`: via command line or through the gui?
[11:24] <Assassin`> command line
[11:24] <neo2k> bruenig, iwlist eth1 scan ... does not give me any networks
[11:24] <t0nia> im learniing cl
[11:24] <Assassin`> i don't know what the gui program is?
[11:24] <Assassin`> :/
[11:24] <ada1> Does anyone know the kernel clock frequency for Ubuntu Server 6.06?
[11:24] <Kroozr> Can I script XChat to automatically send nickserv my nick credentials
[11:24] <bruenig> neo2k, are you sure there are any
[11:24] <andreas6575987> Is Gutsy able to perferm as a stable system yet or is it still too wobbly??
[11:24] <petervk> Assassin`: if you move the file to the desired directory then run the unrar command on it it should extract into the current working directory
[11:25] <bruenig> Kroozr, the little dialog that you have to click connect on, go to edit and put the password
[11:25] <neo2k> bruenig, yes, i can connect to the on windows
[11:25] <Assassin`> ok
[11:25] <Kroozr> bruenig, thanks
[11:25] <geoaxis> hello people
[11:25] <nomic> a download of cups from the package manager is stalling why is this?
[11:25] <nomic> pls
[11:25] <zyxel> how to add plugin
[11:25] <neo2k> bruenig, *them
[11:25] <eck> ada1: I believe it is 100hz, you can check the conf file in /boot though
[11:25] <zyxel> on compiz
[11:25] <waseem> hello
[11:25] <petervk> andreas6575987: if your worried about stability stick with feisty
[11:25] <neo2k> bruenig, when i do iwlist eth1 scani get: eth1      Interface doesn't support scanning.
[11:25] <banlieue> or the LTS release >.>
[11:26] <jrib> andreas6575987: gutsy is stable only in october
[11:26] <bruenig> neo2k, are you sure that is the name of the interface?
[11:26] <ada1> eck: I think you're right.  Do you know if any later version (non-lts or whatnot) run at 1000Hz?
[11:26] <t0nia> im on ab 450mhz
[11:26] <firelord901> Does the beta version of gusty have CompizFusion built in already?
[11:26] <miles800> What does ubuntu use to automount usb devices, and is there a command that will have run that function?
[11:26] <bruenig> firelord901, of course not
[11:26] <Assassin`> sorry i got it
[11:26] <waseem> hello , i am a new comer.
[11:26] <t0nia> 32 ati card
[11:26] <neo2k> bruenig, yes, eth0 is a wired card, there's only 2 cards
[11:26] <eck> ada1: you can just install a desktop kernel
[11:26] <zyxel> gutsy doesnt even work on my computer
[11:26] <ozzie> hi guys
[11:26] <jrib> waseem: welcome
[11:26] <bruenig> neo2k, I only have two cards yet my wireless is called eth2
[11:26] <Assassin`> the command was "unrar e (files)"
[11:26] <eck> ada1: generally you _want_ a slower clock speed for a server
[11:26] <t0nia> it runs perfect
[11:26] <waseem> thanks jrib
[11:26] <petervk> firelord901: bruenig : I heard it did.
[11:26] <`4aFkA`> i need some good" C" compiler for UBUNTU?? and suggestions?
[11:27] <jrib> `4aFkA`: gcc
[11:27] <t0nia> its faster than win98
[11:27] <gregg> `4aFkA`: obviously gcc
[11:27] <bruenig> petervk, on the repos perhaps, built in no, unless they want to make it impossible for anyone without a heavy graphics card to use ubuntu
[11:27] <petervk> Assassin`: please prefix your chats to a user with their username
[11:27] <neo2k> bruenig, eth2 gives same output
[11:27] <waseem> i have been a a good user on windows but this is my first exposure to linux
[11:27] <`4aFkA`> Ok can i get it with apt-get ???
[11:27] <travhoang> #join python
[11:27] <jrib> `4aFkA`: yes
[11:27] <banlieue> waseem: welcome to the dark side
[11:27] <Assassin`> ?
[11:27] <bruenig> neo2k, iwconfig says what
[11:27] <n2diy> neo2k: bruenig, isn't ethX a lan interface? That wouldn't support scannning?
[11:27] <ada1> eck: Ahh, the desktop kernel has 1000hz? Well, I'm running a CS:S server, and with a 100Hz clock I'm maxing out at 50 updates/sec...  It's just not enough :)
[11:27] <intangir> `4aFkA`: just type sudo apt-get install build-essentials
[11:27] <gregg> `4aFkA`: install build-essential
[11:27] <gregg> s
[11:27] <intangir> or build-essential
[11:27] <bruenig> n2diy, not in ipw
[11:27] <geoaxis> windows98 was fast ..it would crash faster than windows 2000
[11:27] <eboogie> waseem: welcome to linux
[11:27] <gregg> intangir: I'm not sure either :)
[11:27] <t0nia> itrs faster than ubuntu
[11:28] <waseem> but i still have probs with my wireless adapters
[11:28] <petervk> bruenig: its just like feisty with compiz though, its installed and all you have to do is enable it with the "desktop effects"
[11:28] <`4aFkA`> keep going like this.. regards thnx and bye :)
[11:28] <firelord901> Is there a reason that whenever I update my kernel that it wouldn't boot to my desktop and it would just give me lines of code?
[11:28] <yurimxpxman> do any of you know how to make Google Desktop open with Firefox instead of Konqueror?
[11:28] <Assassin`> i have one more question.  will vlc play and img file?
[11:28] <petervk> Assassin`: write "petervk: message" if your chatting to me
[11:28] <n2diy> bruenig, ipw, whatz zat?
[11:28] <bruenig> petervk, was it really, I bailed out on ubuntu with fiesty, are they seriously going super bloated now
[11:28] <eck> ada1: the lower clock speed lets the processes run longer without interrupting, so it should be more efficient/performant
[11:28] <banlieue> Assassin`: if it has proper data behind it it should
[11:28] <petervk> Assassin`: an *.img file?
[11:28] <Assassin`> i knew that peter_office
[11:28] <Assassin`> yea
[11:28] <Assassin`> its a movie
[11:28] <bruenig> n2diy, intel pro wireless, like ipw2200 ipw3945 and the others
[11:29] <banlieue> it plays both *.img and images last I checked
[11:29] <ada1> eck: I'm hoping to not have the overhead of xwin/gnome or anything, if there IS a server vversion with 1kHz, ... Oh, interesting.
[11:29] <banlieue> of course the images will have a horrible lack of animation, but alas
[11:29] <Assassin`> thats what i thought banlieue im just waiting for it to be done
[11:29] <eboogie> yurimxpxman: what is your preferred web browswer in "System", "Preferences", "Preferred Applications"?
[11:29] <n2diy> bruenig, Ok, more homework for me, thanks. :)
[11:29] <neo2k> bruenig, eth1      radio off  ESSID:""
[11:29] <petervk> bruenig: Feisty is great for me. Compiz fusion is only enabled for those with computers that can support it.
[11:29] <banlieue> you won't able to play an unfinished *.img probably, I reckon
[11:29] <gregg> ada1, eck, are you talking about HZ?
[11:29] <banlieue> properly*
[11:29] <yurimxpxman> eboogie: what's the command name for that program? I'm in KDE
[11:30] <neo2k> bruenig, eth1 still gives no scan result
[11:30] <ada1> eck: I'm hoping to get higher frames per second, though, for my clients.  Which can be accomplished with a faster clock freq...
[11:30] <waseem> what all channels are there to talk on
[11:30] <ada1> gregg: Yes indeed!
[11:30] <gregg> ada1: won't work this way
[11:30] <firelord901> Wish me luck again
[11:30] <eboogie> yurimxpxman: oh! i assumed you were using gnome.  i do not know how to check that in KDE.
[11:30] <eck> i don't see how upping the clock frequency would help
[11:30] <banlieue> for kde you might want to try #kubuntu
[11:30] <ada1> gregg: How (not) so?
[11:30] <gregg> ada1: install 2.6.22+ kernel which has dyntick (no HZ anymore)
[11:30] <petervk> yurimxpxman: yes. #kubuntu
[11:31] <gregg> ada1: opengl usually uses interrupts anyway, not software based timer
[11:31] <gregg> s
[11:31] <ada1> gregg: Okay.  Can I replace just the kernel?  How does that work?
[11:31] <banlieue> (the only thing kde ever did right was knotes, anyway)
[11:31] <petervk> gregg: ada1: dynatick is about power savings, not greater performance
[11:31] <gregg> ada1: you can install the gutsy kernel
[11:31] <gregg> petervk: yep, I know
[11:31] <gregg> petervk: I already told that this won't improve performance
[11:31] <profoX`> who knows how to change the resolution in nvidia-settings?
[11:31] <mzanfardino> petervk: sorry to bother you, but quick question: I want to connect to the machine with the newly installed openssh-server as root.  I've created a root pwd and can log into the machine locally, but when I attempt to from remote I get an error in my pwd.  Is there something I need to do in order to enable root access via openssh-server as far as you know?
[11:32] <petervk> gregg: ok, sorry. I jumped into the middle of this.
[11:32] <petervk> mzanfardino: yes
[11:32] <petervk> mzanfardino: /etc/ssh/sshd.conf I think
[11:32] <ada1> gregg: This is actually for a counter-strike source server.  My server frames per second are limited at 50, which accounts for a lot of shots not connecting.  I'd like to just run higher frames per second, so my clients have the most accurate timing available... Right now the server FPS is capped by the clock freq.
[11:33] <petervk> mzanfardino: but it is better to login from a normal user and use sudo
[11:33] <neo2k> bruenig, i am sure that the card is on, so makes no sense
[11:33] <ada1> petervk: Thanks for the input :)
[11:33] <ghatak_mobile> Help please, my audio does not work for Mic input. It is fine for Soundoutput but mic does not work
[11:33] <jerkface03> Can anyone tell me which packages I need to install on 6.06-LTS server to get the 1.6 JRE/JDK working?
[11:33] <bruenig> neo2k, well I am not too familiar with how ubuntu deals with it, in arch there is a daemon that needs to be run for it to work
[11:33] <petervk> mzanfardino: ok, look in /etc/ssh/ssh_config
[11:33] <backz> Hi, I putted some lines on cron of user www-data, but I don't works. cron will run only for non-system users?
[11:34] <doojin> hi
[11:34] <gregg> ada1: I don't think it'll help to increase HZ/use dyntick... HZ by default is 250 which should really be good enough for most things
[11:34] <doojin> I have my wireless lan on ubuntu
[11:34] <doojin> but
[11:34] <mzanfardino> petervk: what I'm really trying to do is use scp to copy files from one machine to the other and the host machine files are in /var/lib/ which are owned by root.  when I scp with root@xx.xx.xx.xx I get the bad pwd.
[11:34] <n2diy> neo2k: bruenig, can you ping the card?
[11:34] <mzanfardino> petervk: but I'll check out ssh_config
[11:34] <doojin> My wirelesslan on ubuntu can't recognize my AP!
[11:34] <B-777> Trying to compile some programs from the terminal, since the programs are not in the repository, the error message "configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool" comes up, any fix around this?
[11:34] <doojin> But my wireless lan on windows xp does well
[11:34] <neo2k> n2diy, how to ping the card ?
[11:34] <buti> what was the nice frontend to openssl key generation? (non-gui)
[11:34] <gregg> buti: easy-rsa
[11:35] <n2diy> neo2k: bruenig, what is the card's ip address?
[11:35] <thefed> X won't start on my ubuntu. I did CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE and then it failed on me
[11:35] <petervk> mzanfardino: http://www.hmug.org/man/5/ssh_config.php
[11:35] <buti> gregg, thanks
[11:35] <neo2k> n2diy, bruenig, it does not have an ip afaik, it's not connected and i'm not able to connect to any networks
[11:35] <attickid> ey guys do I can install beryl in ubuntu feisty without an accelerator?
[11:35] <osxdude|lapto1> thefed have you seen the X output?
[11:35] <petervk> attickid: you need some sort of 3d card
[11:35] <thefed> yea, i did
[11:35] <gregg> attickid: you can install it, but it won't work
[11:35] <thefed> lemme get it for you
[11:35] <banlieue> attickid: you can always _install_ it, it's running it that will be a problem :/
[11:36] <attickid> gregg:thx
[11:36] <attickid> banlieue:thx
[11:36] <gregg> attickid: what kind of graphics card do you have?
[11:36] <petervk> attickid: nvidia & intel work best, ati sort of
[11:36] <banlieue> sounds like integrated
[11:36] <n2diy> neo2k: bruenig, it needs an ip address before it can play on the net, does ifconfig find it?
[11:36] <ada1> gregg: Hmm... My kernel's actually at 100 hz right now.  I'd really like to run at least 250, but compiling a kernel sounds tough; I've never even compiled anything from source :)  You suggested gutsy?  Dumb q: Is that an ubuntu release?
[11:36] <bruenig> n2diy, stop putting my name in there
[11:36] <nomic> wooo i've done it
[11:36] <banlieue> lol
[11:36] <nomic> VIVA UBUNTU!!!!
[11:36] <RRando> any way to recover from a failed network install?  I was going from edgy to fiesty and things went south.
[11:36] <attickid> ey guys do u know how can I download the packets so I can save it in a disc or something
[11:36] <petervk> ada1: yes. gusty is the next ubuntu release, currently in development
[11:36] <attickid> ?
[11:37] <attickid> I mean beryl packages
[11:37] <gregg> ada1: gutsy is the next ubuntu release... search for linux-image-2.6...-generic on packages.ubuntu.com and install it
[11:37] <sdouble> what would be the easiest way to mount a windows share?  I have googled and found "smbmount" but "command not found"  Is that in another samba package?  All I have so far is the samba-common
[11:37] <nomic> i tell you what its faster than windows
[11:37] <n2diy> neo2k: bruenig, ok, I didn't want to exclude you, but now I will.
[11:37] <osxdude|lapto1> thefed: you can't show us it, can you?
[11:37] <petervk> attickid: why do you need to download and save beryl packages?
[11:37] <gregg> ada1: http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/base/linux-image-2.6.22-7-generic
[11:37] <attickid> so i can save them for a friend who cant download them
[11:38] <nomic> :-D
[11:38] <petervk> attickid: synaptic has a method of creating a download script
[11:38] <ada1> gregg: petervk: Thank you.  What's the default clock freq. for this release?  And is there a server-edition? (clicking now)
[11:38] <neo2k> n2diy, bruenig, an address like 169.254.9.77 ? that's from avahi
[11:38] <bruenig> stop that
[11:38] <gregg> ada1: it doesn't have a clock anymore
[11:38] <petervk> attickid: http://aptoncd.sourceforge.net/
[11:39] <thefed> im on my mac right now
[11:39] <sotec_prod> imwheel won't install. says i don't have X installed or X11...confusing. and from first glance, xbindkeys pretty much is a pain
[11:39] <n2diy> neo2k: can you ping that address?
[11:39] <attickid> ok I will take a look
[11:39] <attickid> thx
[11:39] <MSIGuy> So...
[11:39] <thefed> can't show you it directly. But it said 'can't initialize driver'
[11:39] <petervk> ada1: I don't understand what you mean by clock frequency. Wouldn't that depend on your processor?
[11:39] <gregg> ada1: it's called dyntick. instead of waking up periodically the kernel just wakes up when there is something to be done
[11:39] <banlieue> i wish i had a question to ask ;(
[11:39] <gregg> petervk: he means HZ
[11:39] <firelord901> OK guys, so i just updated alsa, when i switched to the intel audio and shut down there was the shutting down sound, Once i booted up there was no sound.
[11:39] <sotec_prod> anything closer to an actual mouse gesture action setter? a program that will recognize my scrolllwheel and its toggles?
[11:39] <sotec_prod> or the side button?
[11:40] <thefed> LUCKILY, i changed my xorg.conf just now
[11:40] <ada1> gregg: Alright.  I'll try and wrap up w/ your time... Is gutsy just a kernel? Does it come in a binary?
[11:40] <thefed> AND FIXED IT
[11:40] <sotec_prod> unfortunately logitech's setpoint doesn't work with WINE out of the box.
[11:40] <thefed> thanks so much everyone
[11:40] <thefed> VIVA UBUNTU and BERYL
[11:40] <MajorPayne> Hi.  I found out that for some odd reason in the Gnome volume control the master slider controls one speaker, the front slider controls the other speaker and PCM controls both at the same time.  I managed to set the single slider window from the applet to PCM so that works fine.  How can I have the keyboard buttons also control the PCM slider?  They current control the master slider.
[11:40] <gregg> ada1: gutsy is the code name for the next ubuntu release
[11:40] <waseem> hello , can anybody guide me how to install downloaded pidgin
[11:40] <petervk> gregg: ada1: I still don't really get it.
[11:40] <gregg> ada1: you'll be using just the kernel of it
[11:40] <banlieue> MajorPayne: that's a quick fix in, um.. one sec
[11:40] <neo2k> n2diy, yes, i can ping the ip, 36/36 received
[11:40] <gregg> ada1: it'
[11:40] <bruenig> waseem, extract it compile and install
[11:40] <uber_> wow...... this channel is a bit fast for me..... bye
[11:40] <petervk> ada1: gusty is a whole new release of ubuntu
[11:40] <gregg> ada1: it's still in development
[11:40] <MajorPayne> banlieue: Ok.  Thanks.
[11:41] <belarm> i'm having issues with the new xorg intel driver (which replaced the i810 driver) and widescreen resolutions; I understand the driver included in gutsy works, but will not be backported
[11:41] <ada1> petervk: Probably.  I mean Hz.  Sorry, my lingo's a little underdeveloped in this particular region.
[11:41] <petervk> ada1: but it comes with a newer kernel
[11:41] <belarm> is there a way for me to install the older i810 driver?
[11:41] <waseem> well , i am very new to linux
[11:41] <petervk> ada1: why are you looking for a kernel with a lower HZ?
[11:41] <waseem> so don't know how to compile and install
[11:41] <kaptein> waseem: go to www.pidgin.im, download the .tar file, extract it and follow the instructions
[11:41] <gregg> BTW, is anyone using the experimental radeon X200M driver? it began to work just a few days ago
[11:41] <n2diy> neo2k: ok, so we think the card is working, and talking to the "world"?
[11:42] <weepy_> Hi - I just did a vanilla install of Feisty and the network manager doesn't seem to allow WPA keys. Any ideas ?!!!
[11:42] <gregg> kaptein, waseem, there's no need to compile it yourself
[11:42] <neo2k> n2diy, it should be yes, but it can't find any networks, back when i used it on windows i detected 4-5 networks
[11:42] <petervk> I can't wait till debian & ubuntu get this working: http://debtorrent.alioth.debian.org/
[11:42] <Jun_> I need help with apt-get install (ANY P2P Program)
[11:42] <bruenig> Jun_, what seems to be the problem
[11:42] <neo2k> n2diy, the laptop is positioned right beside the router, still doesn't detect it
[11:42] <osxdude|laptop> it's still defraging. It has been for 2 hours and iss only at 30%
[11:43] <Jun_> Does anyone know of a p2p that will self install on Ubuntu 7.0.4?
[11:43] <petervk> Jun_: try ktorrent for a great bittorrent program
[11:43] <waseem> i have downloaded the version 2.0.2
[11:43] <gregg> http://download.ubuntu.pl/_Feisty_Fawn/pidgin/2.0.2/
[11:43] <Jun_> I can't install a p2p properly I guess
[11:43] <gregg> pidgin packages fpr feisty...
[11:43] <n2diy> neo2k: ok, have you disabled your firewall?
[11:43] <Jun_> I installed FrostWire but it doesn't work.
[11:43] <kaptein> gregg, waseem, I know but it's really easy to compil pidgin and a good way to learn
[11:43] <Jun_> and I am not advanced enough to build form source
[11:43] <banlieue> hm actually, MajorPayne
[11:43] <bruenig> Jun_, mainly because frostwire is crap
[11:43] <petervk> Jun_: could be a firewall also
[11:43] <banlieue> MajorPayne: is this your bug? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/97530
[11:43] <Jun_> I have no firewall installed.
[11:43] <kaptein> gregg, waseem, and it isn't in the repos is it?
[11:43] <petervk> Jun_: bittorrent is the way to go.
[11:43] <bruenig> Jun_, yes you do
[11:43] <kikkomanchow> !lamp
[11:43] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[11:43] <petervk> Jun_: or a router.
[11:43] <gregg> kaptein: it isn't in the feisty repos, no
[11:43] <waseem> but how to install. it.
[11:43] <neo2k> n2diy, i can connect with my other laptop with another wlan card to my router without problems, so i'm pretty sure it's not a firewall problem
[11:44] <Jun_> Hmm okay so how do I tell it to let Frostwire get online?
[11:44] <MajorPayne> bonobono: Just give me a second.  I am reading it.
[11:44] <Jun_> and I need the program to dl music for shows.
[11:44] <ada1> petervk: gregg: Okay, that sounds promising.  Is there a reason to only install the kernel as opposed to the whole release? Peter, I'm looking for higher Hz.  Right now my game server only runs 50 updates per second, capped at Hz/2.  I'd like to offer a higher tickrate to my players.  According to the majority of server admins, it's the Hz that is limiting my server FPS
[11:44] <MajorPayne> banlieue: Whops ^^
[11:44] <banlieue> you can call me banlieue :] 
[11:44] <Jun_> bittorrent won';t serve the purpose I need p2p for
[11:44] <bruenig> Jun_, use a real protocol like bittorrent and not gnutella would be my advice
[11:44] <petervk> bruenig: he may not. ubuntu doesn't come with a firewall persay. it's built into the kernel.
[11:44] <banlieue> the page also lists a bunch of possible solutions
[11:44] <knoppix> ciao
[11:44] <banlieue> I suggest you try those
[11:44] <bruenig> petervk, ok well until ubuntu doesn't ship with the linux kernel
[11:44] <banlieue> (@ MajorPayne)
[11:44] <bruenig> which I am going to say will probably be quite a way into the future
[11:44] <dvs01> is there a way to share usb devices across the network?
[11:44] <Jun_> okay so what's the command line for it?
[11:44] <bruenig> the python kernel is running into some bumps
[11:44] <Jun_> apt-get install ???
[11:44] <waseem> well. what is repos
[11:45] <petervk> ada1: and there is no way to change the game's config?
[11:45] <n2diy> neo2k: so, neither laptop can get online, but they can talk to each other?
[11:45] <bruenig> apt-get install wine, then go to utorrent.com, then wine utorrent.exe
[11:45] <bruenig> perfect
[11:45] <kerik> hey guys...can anyone tell me what the java compiler is called in ubuntu?
[11:45] <MajorPayne> banlieue: Kinda, mine controls the Master volume but I want it to control PCM.  But I am going to keep reading, maybe I can use the same fix to go the other way.
[11:45] <petervk> bruenig: that will be the day. "now with darwin"
[11:45] <kerik> oh...and maybe more important...how to use it...
[11:45] <waseem> kaptein, i need real help on this as i is my first appearance to linux
[11:45] <banlieue> MajorPayne: you're likely interested in the 'default mix tracks' option in system > preferences > sound
[11:45] <banlieue> as suggested by that page as well
[11:46] <petervk> bruenig: have you tried ktorrent? it's pretty good
[11:46] <neo2k> n2diy, no, my laptop with another card than the ipw2200 card can connect to the router and so on (this one), the other one with the ipw2200 card seems to detect the card but is unable to detect any networks
[11:46] <kerik> petervk, hey again...you know what...victory was mine :)
[11:46] <bruenig> petervk, bloated, rss is bad
[11:46] <waseem> can u send me some link to some page where i can find info
[11:46] <petervk> kerik: really? what did you do?
[11:46] <banlieue> be sure not to use qbittorrent, it lacks in both features and stability (for now)
[11:46] <banlieue> utorrent is properly wine'able, and azureus is of course a good (and bloaty) option
[11:46] <petervk> bruenig: utorrent is the king. But I don't really like using wine.
[11:47] <n2diy> neo2k: can you ping anything outside of your LAN?
[11:47] <kerik> petervk, I finished updating :)
[11:47] <gregg> FYI, I think ktorrent is the best graphical client currently
[11:47] <banlieue> way too many b* in here :o
[11:47] <neo2k> n2diy, not on the laptop with the ipw2200 card
[11:47] <banlieue> ktorrent is KDE though
[11:47] <petervk> gregg: best native client by far
[11:47] <Jun_> Can anyone recomend a program for P2P Music Sharing?
[11:47] <attickid> ey where is ubuntu feisty apt cache folder does it exist?
[11:47] <Jun_> For GNOME
[11:47] <kaptein> waseem: you can do it the easy way, without learning anything or you can do it the hard way and learn something
[11:47] <ada1> petervk: There is, and I've done it, but the Hz are capping me at 50 regardless of how high I set the config.  To sum it up, other people with this problem have resolved it by recompiling their kernel with a higher Hz, but I'd like to avoid recompiling and just go straight to something with a default of 1000Hz.
[11:47] <petervk> banlieue: but it doesn't install a lot of kde libraries though.
[11:47] <kaptein> waseem: the easy way is to go to www.getdeb.com and search for piding
[11:48] <n2diy> neo2k: What about the other laptop?
[11:48] <banlieue> Jun_: p2p is rather broad, and it kind of worries me you're not sure of your method
[11:48] <petervk> ada1: ahh.
[11:48] <Yasuo> hi, how do i create flash movies?
[11:48] <Jun_> Normally I use limewire.
[11:48] <petervk> ada1: recompiling is not too hard though
[11:48] <banlieue> petervk: it follows the KDE structure and look though, but that might just be a personal pet peeve
[11:48] <Jack_Sparrow> attickid: var/apt/cache/archive
[11:48] <Jun_> I use gnutella network
[11:48] <musy1> how can i open up rar files?
[11:48] <banlieue> Jun_: perhaps try aMule
[11:48] <neo2k> n2diy, yeah i can ping outside my lan on that one, that's one i'm on irc with right now
[11:48] <kerik> anybody with java experience?
[11:48] <banlieue> musy1: did you try unrar?
[11:48] <kaptein> waseem: you can find .deb files there which are the Ubuntu version of .exe files (sort off)
[11:48] <Jack_Sparrow> attickid: I aleays burn it to a disk after I do the initial updates
[11:48] <petervk> banlieue: yeah. I would use a gnome/gtk torrent client but I haven't found a good one.
[11:48] <Jun_> Does it have a apt-get install command?
[11:49] <musy1> banlieue: is that a program?
[11:49] <banlieue> petervk: there isn't one
[11:49] <waseem> ok.
[11:49] <robby> Ubuntu OEM allows the user to pick the screen resolution!!
[11:49] <n2diy> neo2k: Ok, so both laptops can play on the internet? what is the problem?
[11:49] <attickid> oh men thx! i think Im doing the same xD
[11:49] <banlieue> musy1: you'll find it on the multiverse
[11:49] <robby> OEM install that is
[11:49] <MajorPayne> Jun_: There is also gnutella.  It's been a long time since I used it.  I don't know if it is good or not.
[11:49] <waseem> i think i used the wrong version of pidgin.
[11:49] <musy1> ok,thanks
[11:49] <kerik> anybody who can tell me how to compile java in ubuntu?
[11:49] <banlieue> musy1: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1070
[11:50] <neo2k> n2diy, the laptop with the ipw2200 can't connect to anything, it somehow does not detect any wireless networks
[11:50] <waseem> firstly it was for windows. ,
[11:50] <gregg> ada1: yeah, it's quite easy to recompile the kernel. debian assists you with it.
[11:50] <kerik> ubotu, compile java
[11:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about compile java - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:50] <frojnd> Is there any software fo flash DVDs CDs ??
[11:50] <waseem> now i have downloaded tar  and it is opening in archive manager
[11:50] <kerik> ubotu, compile
[11:50] <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!)
[11:50] <tannerld> if the /opt dir doesn't exist, can I create it?
[11:50] <petervk> Jun_: try gtk-gnutella
[11:50] <bruenig> tannerld, yes
[11:50] <n2diy> neo2k: is the antenna connected ? :)
[11:50] <tannerld> bruenig: thanks
[11:50] <banlieue> tannerld: mkdir it?
[11:50] <neo2k> n2diy, yes it is
[11:51] <tannerld> bruenig: chown to root too?
[11:51] <ada1> petervk: Is it really not too hard?  Hmm.  I'd be willing to give it a shot!  But...  I don't even know what to do.  So, I could basically run everything as it is on my server, but recompile the kernel? Do I just compile it and move it into place? Or does it compile over the existing one? Can I jsut recompile the Hz setting, and pertinent parts?  Or... Could you recommend a good reference?
[11:51] <petervk> kerik: you want to compile a java program or the entire stack?
[11:51] <bruenig> tannerld, why wouldn't be able
[11:51] <MajorPayne> tannerld: sudo mkdir /opt
[11:51] <neo2k> n2diy, all i did was change from windows, so the hardware should be the same
[11:51] <bruenig> tannerld, you can create anything you want and chown it to whatever you want, this is linux
[11:51] <kaptein> waseem: if you're talking to me put my name in your message, this makes it easyer for me to see it (you can use tab to autocomplete my name)
[11:51] <banlieue> lol, 'this is linux', way to make me feel geeky for using linux there, bruenig :P
[11:51] <kaptein> waseem: so you've got an extracted tar file now?
[11:51] <frojnd> Is there any software fo flash DVDs CDs ?? U know so cd works better
[11:51] <gregg> ada1: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[11:51] <n2diy> neo2k: the troublesome box worked with winders?
[11:51] <zerokill88> someone HELP PLEASE. my photos from my digital camera wont load on my website,but other jpegs do.what is going on here????anyhelp will help
[11:51] <banlieue> frojnd: i don't know... what do you mean, exactly?
[11:52] <Jun_> that didn't work
[11:52] <banlieue> zerokill88: is this ubuntu related?
[11:52] <MajorPayne> tannerld: If you use sudo it will already be owned by root.  You will most likely have to use sudo since / is owned by root.
[11:52] <petervk> ada1: you compile the new kernel (could take a few hours) then install it and re-boot, and select the new kernel in grub, if it doesn't work you restart and use the old, good kernel.
[11:52] <robby> Boy i got a hangnail you could shake a stick at.
[11:52] <petervk> ada1: almost fool proof.
[11:52] <gregg> ada1: simply copy the config from /boot, change HZ, recompile, make package, install it, be done with it
[11:52] <neo2k> n2diy, yes
[11:52] <zerokill88> banlieue ya
[11:52] <frojnd> banlieue: sorry: for bios
[11:52] <frojnd> banlieue: sorry: for bios flashing or is it flushing..
[11:53] <banlieue> flashing 'tis
[11:53] <n2diy> neo2k: humm, I'm out of ideas?
[11:53] <banlieue> frojnd: try binflash
[11:53] <neo2k> n2diy, oki mate, thanks anyway :] 
[11:54] <n2diy> neo2k: GL!
[11:54] <banlieue> frojnd: http://binflash.cdfreaks.com/
[11:54] <petervk> ada1: it makes it tougher if you use the linux-restricted-modules packages though.
[11:54] <SeveredCross> Blah.
[11:55] <zerokill88> anyone know of a website or html channel
[11:55] <SeveredCross> Screw SuSE, I'm going back to Ubuntu.
[11:55] <banlieue> SeveredCross: i bet you said the exact opposite in the suse irc channel
[11:55] <SeveredCross> Actually no.
[11:55] <SeveredCross> I really liked SuSE.
[11:55] <MajorPayne> banlieue: I got around to looking at that site.  The buttons are fixed.  Thanks.
[11:55] <SeveredCross> But after having kernel issues.
[11:55] <waseem> hello kaptein
[11:55] <dave__> Hello all
[11:55] <SeveredCross> And being really tired of using su a lot rather than just staying as my own user and using sudo.
[11:55] <sister_ray> salve
[11:55] <waseem> r u there on this irc.
[11:55] <banlieue> MajorPayne: np.. was it selecting your default mix tracks that fixed it?
[11:56] <SeveredCross> I decided that I like the way Ubuntu is set up better.
[11:56] <gregg> SeveredCross: installing sudo isn't that hard
[11:56] <petervk> dave__: hello
[11:56] <SeveredCross> It's installed.
[11:56] <SeveredCross> It's just not set up the same way.
[11:56] <waseem> i have got extracted tar now.
[11:56] <banlieue> ubuntu does sudo well
[11:56] <dave__> hey petervk
[11:56] <SeveredCross> And I don't think it's possible to set it up that way--I tried setting up a passwordless, disabled, root account, couldn't figure it out.
[11:56] <SeveredCross> Plus, the kernel is old...
[11:56] <gregg> you probably just need to add your user to the 'wheel' group and it would work
[11:56] <waseem> kaptein , how do we install it
[11:56] <SeveredCross> sudo works dammit.
[11:56] <MajorPayne> MajorPayne: Yea.  I just set it to PCM.  Maybe setting it to both Master and Front might be a better option.  But I know how to change it now so I can try that later.
[11:56] <SeveredCross> Just not as well as it does in Ubuntu.
[11:56] <dave__> Have you guys used Ktorrent before?
[11:56] <Jun_> Can someone walk me through installation of aMule?
[11:56] <ada1> gregg: petervk: Hah, alright!  I'll give it a shot :)  So, I compile a kernel and then install it...  I'm gonna be doing a fresh install, I just got a new hand-me-down AMD box.  If I recompile the kernel, what do I do about making everything work?  I'm under the impression that the kernel is the 'nerve center' that communicates with everything, but what about everything else?  Like, to get to a command prompt and use apt-get, etc...  Is that
[11:57] <banlieue> Jun_: you can just apt-get it, I believe
[11:57] <banlieue> Jun_: so that'd be sudo apt-get install amule in terminal, and sit back and wait after that
[11:57] <Jun_> I don't know the line command for it
[11:57] <Jun_> I know apt-get install but I don't knwo the filename
[11:57] <MajorPayne> dave__: I use it all the time, not much of an expert in it, but what's the problem?
[11:57] <GeekMaster1> I can't open up Firefox because it says I have another instance of Firefox running. How do I kill that Firefox instance?
[11:57] <prcornieles> j # ubuntu-es
[11:57] <petervk> ada1: you could try the lowlatency kernel as well
[11:57] <dave__> I think I might have encountered a problem with it, my comp gets all slow when I open it.
[11:57] <waseem> ok kaptein, see u later once we have time.
[11:57] <banlieue> Jun_: i'd try 'amule' if i were you
[11:57] <waseem> bye .everyone.
[11:57] <HyperCity> !pastebin
[11:57] <gregg> ada1: yes, the kernel IS very important. however, if you use packages it is quite safe
[11:58] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[11:58] <MajorPayne> Jun_: You can search with apt-cache search term.
[11:58] <dave__> MajorPayne: I think I might have encountered a problem with it, my comp gets all slow when I open it.
[11:58] <GeekMaster1> Anyone?
[11:58] <GeekMaster1> I can't open up Firefox because it says I have another instance of Firefox running. How do I kill that Firefox instance?
[11:58] <banlieue> GeekMaster1: system > administration > system monitor
[11:58] <gregg> SeveredCross: I don't get it. like it's hard to set it up the way you want with visudo
[11:59] <n2diy> GeekMaster1: look for a Firefox_lock file, and delete it.
[11:59] <MajorPayne> dave__: Ahh.  I woudldn't know about that.
[11:59] <gregg> what I don't like about ubuntu's default sudo setup is that insults are disabled :)
[11:59] <Jun_> that's not helping
[11:59] <dave__> How can I know if it's Ktorrent that's giving me trouble....?
[11:59] <Jun_> I DO NOT KNOW APT
[11:59] <Jun_> I AM A WINDOWS PERSON
[11:59] <gregg> Jun_: start up synaptic
[11:59] <gregg> Jun_: system -> administration -> synaptic
[12:00] <banlieue> Jun_: i gave you the exact command :/
[12:00] <gregg> Jun_: make sure all repositories are activated (tools -> repositories IIRC)
[12:00] <MajorPayne> Jun_: Are you typing "apt-get install program" or "sudo apt-get install program"?
[12:00] <dave__> MajorPayne, What's the shortcut to kill a window here in ubuntu?
[12:00] <gregg> Jun_: reload, search for amule, that's it
[12:00] <attickid> is there a folder where the all the packages that I have downloaded are stored or are they deleted after a time?
[12:00] <ada1> gregg: petervk: Alright, I'm gonna look into it.  Just I know the Ubuntu CD comes with more than jsut the kernel.  How do I make sure I get all that onto a fresh computer?  Would it be: Install 6.06 from CD; download, modify, compile, install custom kernel; be done? Or is there a smarter way to go about it?
[12:00] <GeekMaster1> banlieue: It says Firefox-bin-uninterruptable. Thats's the only thing I see of Firefox there
[12:00] <HyperCity> after starting a tomcat server i get this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28876/ (i asume the server has started right) but when i'm tring to conect to http://localhost:8080/ i get page not found , what should i do now?
[12:00] <gregg> ada1: uh, why 6.06?
[12:00] <miles800> On bootup ubuntu auto mounts my external usb drive.  I have to use sudo umount /dev/thedevice to unmount it because when I try to do it with nautilus it just remounts it right away.  When I reconnect the drive it does not automatically mount, is there a way to reinitialize whatever mounted it in the first place?
[12:00] <Jun_> just apt-get install program
[12:00] <MajorPayne> dave__: I use xkill.
[12:00] <MajorPayne> Jun_: You need sudo in front.
[12:01] <Jun_> okay
[12:01] <lesauc> Bonjour, quelqu'un sait-il comment installer le bureau de la distribution SymphonyOS sur Ubuntu 7.04 ?
